Weekend’s Best Bets

1: MARIO AT THE RAILROAD PASS CASINO: Singer-comedian Mario will perform free of charge from 8 p.m. to midnight Saturday at the Railroad Pass Casino, 2800 S. Boulder Highway. The Los Angeles native recently moved to Southern Nevada from the Midwest and has found the perfect showcase for his unique comedy takes and his vocal performances of American standards, from artists including Dean Martin and Michael Buble as well as classic country hits. Guests can expect rib-tickling humor, spot-on impressions and a healthy amount of Frank Sinatra. For more inofrmation, visit http://www.marioshowbiz.com/

Jump back for daylight saving time

We are steaming forward to our favorite time of year – the end of daylight saving time (not)! Sunday at 2 a.m. will mark the event for this year! I can be sure that I will either be early or late for any and all appointments. Then consider those areas that do not observe DST and that is even more fun to the time game. Just about the time I get in sync, it’s time to mix it up again. Can you imagine how fun it would be if individual states decided to “unsubscribe?” So, on that bright note, we invite you to enjoy the extra hour of sleep and remember to set your clocks back one hour on Sunday morning.

Mayor to host cottage meetings to fight misinformation

A critical component of my 2016 Mayor’s Vision continues to be Crystal Clear Communication. At my State of the City address in January, I challenged our City Council and staff to keep finding better and better ways to tackle one of the most important and daunting tasks that every municipality faces. That task is keeping decision-makers and citizens informed and engaged with clear and accurate information. It’s essential that we make a continual and concerted effort to communicate more efficiently, effectively and proactively among ourselves and with you, our citizens, nonprofits and businesses.

I covered the event for its past six or seven years. When the two-decade anniversary was reached, the event was retired. Except the fans wouldn’t let it die.
