Paul Takahashi - Was the donation given by Target or by Ellen and her show? One of the photos clearly shows a Target logo on the faux photo op check, yet your article states this is the biggest donation the show has ever given. Thanks for clarifying.

Already on the way . . .
Didn't the old EFX show at MGM Grand have a pre-show "janitor" to warm up the audience?
So . . . if R&R is donating its services, that means taxpayer dollars aren't paying; so does that mean the public never gets to see the results of their seat belt survey? Because that should be public information.
Hey Kyle, did you ask R&R for the results?
In Southern Nevada, fire departments valleywide raised in 2009; $186,421 in 2008 and $209,110 in 2007.
Joe, what's the number for 2009? Tell your editor he needs another red pen. Great piece anyway.
Environprotector, you may not be familiar with the FB layout . . . FB's meeting space and ballrooms are built over the floors that are parking in that structure. If they don't build enough meeting space, then their business model is shot before they even open the doors without enough meeting space to sell groups at convention rates mid week. If they have to rely on FIT and wholesale rooms to make their revenue, the value of the entire property is reduced substantially.
If FB is supposed to have 3,800 rooms, and if they want to have at least 30% of their mid week rooms sold at higher convention rates, then they need, at minimum, enough meeting space for 1,100 - 1,200 people to meet at one time, plus breakout rooms and exhibit space. The more meeting rooms they have, the more convention groups they can book, and the more money they can make. This court decision is a huge plus for this property's future.
There was nothing brief about not moving at all for an hour and sitting in stop & go traffic for another half hour.
Total comedy to watch people leave the freeway and try to off-road, especially the white van with the trailer. Unbelievable.
The Dodgers will be on the radio again? Woo hoo!
Who is Kenny Monaco? If you mean Kelly Monaco, tell you copy editors to wake up.

It might have been a good idea to break out a map for this piece. Los Angeles is not "at the western edge of the time zone," it is actually east of Reno.
