Delta launched a basic first class following United, stripping out seat selection, upgrades, and same day changes while almost certainly charging you the same, and we explain why it is just a way to make you pay more for what you already got. The good news is United is putting a blocked empty middle seat with its own tray on its A321XLRs, a European style setup that saves them a flight attendant and that we would happily book over regular first, and Emirates is rolling out a folding UDream headrest that could finally make sleeping in economy possible. We also cover the partnership madlibs of the week, Hilton with Explora cruises, Japan Airlines with Marriott Bonvoy, and Air Canada Aeroplan with World of Hyatt, and what each is actually worth. We close with a genuinely useful one, Wyndham doubling its Caesars transfer limit to 60,000 points through September 11th, which is a great way to rescue points before Wyndham's brutal four year expiration hits. Let us know in the comments if a better headrest would get you to fly economy.

Einhard was employed by Charlemagne as a court historian. At the request of Charlemagne's son and successor Louis the Pious, he wrote a biography of Charlemagne, the Vita Karoli Magni or Life of Charlemagne (c. 817–830), which provides much direct information about Charlemagne's life and character. In composing this he made full use of the Frankish Royal annals. Einhard's literary model was the classical work of the Roman historian Suetonius, the Lives of the Caesars.

Den 2 september år 31 f.Kr. avgjordes Romarrikets framtid utanför Actium på Greklands västkust. Det var ett sjöslag som inte bara avgjorde ett inbördeskrig, utan också markerade republikens slut och början på den romerska kejsartiden.Efter mordet på Julius Caesars år 44 f.Kr. kastades republiken åter in i kaos. Ett nytt triumvirat bildades av Octavianus, Marcus Antonius och Lepidus, som delade upp imperiet mellan sig. Men precis som tidigare maktdelningar kunde inte heller denna bestå.I dagens avsnitt av Militärhistoriepodden berättar idéhistorikern Peter Bennesved och professorn i historia Martin Hårdstedt om slaget vid Actium – den avgörande uppgörelsen mellan Octavianus och Marcus Antonius i Joniska havet, vid inloppet till Ambrakiska viken.Octavianus, Caesars adoptivson och arvtagare, visade sig vara en mästare i politiskt manövrerande. Med propaganda, allianser och ett skickligt utnyttjande av Caesars eftermäle stärkte han sin ställning, samtidigt som relationen till Antonius gradvis försämrades.När konflikten övergick i öppet krig blev östra Medelhavet den avgörande arenan. Antonius och Kleopatra etablerade sig i västra Grekland, medan Octavianus förfogade över en ovärderlig tillgång: den briljante strategen Marcus Agrippa. Genom en rad amfibieoperationer mot Antonius försörjningslinjer skaffade sig Agrippa initiativet och lyckades successivt pressa in motståndaren i Ambrakiska viken. Samtidigt urholkades Antonius ställning av avhopp, bristande försörjning och ett allt intensivare psykologiskt krig.I avsnittet diskuteras också den romerska sjökrigföringens utveckling, styrkeförhållandena vid Actium och de osäkra källorna kring Kleopatras dramatiska flykt från slagfältet. När striden väl var över återstod bara en segrare. Antonius och Kleopatra tog sina liv, medan Octavianus återvände till Rom och blev princeps – ”den förste medborgaren”. Därmed inleddes en ny epok i romersk historia: kejsardömets tid.Bild: Slaget vid Actium 31 f.Kr., här skildrat i en målning från 1672, där Octavianus flotta besegrar Marcus Antonius och Kleopatra. Segern blev avgörande för slutet på den romerska republiken och början på kejsartiden. Målning: Laureys a Castro, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons.Klippare: Emanuel Lehtonen Hosted on Acast.

Barry Diller's People Inc. just offered $18 billion to take MGM Resorts private, days after Fertitta agreed to buy Caesars. MGM's own CFO didn't argue the company was fairly valued — he argued investors aren't doing the work. Ben, Scott, and Edwin debate whether public markets are simply too lazy to underwrite experience-driven hospitality, and what the next-generation casino actually looks like. Then: the deal that almost rewrote the industry. On a recent podcast, Airbnb's former Chief Strategy Officer Chip Conley revealed that Marriott and Airbnb spent six months negotiating a major partnership in 2016 — including talk of earning and burning Bonvoy points on Airbnb stays — before Marriott's owners killed it. Was it the most expensive "no" in hospitality history? Plus: Zach got access to Odesia, the AI travel search platform from Sonder's co-founder that just landed $6M from Sequoia — and it's the best AI trip-planning experience he's seen, full stop. And a new survey of 2,000 travelers reveals what premium guests will actually pay more for: quiet rooms, verified sustainability, and tech that connects rather than dazzles. Spoiler — it's a home-field advantage for independents. Spice of the Week covers a sandwich shop that turned away revenue over a tiny dog, why full hotels fool owners into thinking their marketing works, the OTA-fee budget shell game, and Zach's big announcement: Journey's new strategic partnership with Cloudbeds.

Washington has always been draped in Rome. From the Senate to the Capitol, from the marble columns to the imperial domes, from the eagle imagery to the fasces displayed in Congress, America's ruling class built its civic temple with Roman hands and Roman imagination. The United States presented itself as a republic, but it borrowed the language, architecture, symbolism, and ambition of the empire that came before it. Rome was never as far away from America as we were told. It was carved into the stone from the beginning. Now the symbolism has stepped out of the marble and onto the White House lawn.“For God hath put in their hearts to fulfil his will, and to agree, and give their kingdom unto the beast, until the words of God shall be fulfilled. And the woman which thou sawest is that great city, which reigneth over the kings of the earth.” Revelation 17, 17,18 (KJB)On this episode of the Prophecy News Podcast, Rome understood spectacle. Rome understood how to command the imagination of the people. The arena was never merely entertainment. It was power on display. It was the empire telling the masses who ruled, who conquered, who mattered, and who could be crushed. The Caesars knew that the people could be governed through bread, blood, theater, fear, glory, and distraction. The arena was Rome's pulpit, and the empire preached itself through violence, triumph, and applause America learned the lesson well, very well. The White House, the palace of American executive power, becomes the stage. The fighters become the spectacle. The cameras become the amphitheater. The nation watches as combat entertainment is fused with politics, patriotism, celebrity, military pageantry, and national celebration. Just as it was in the days of Rome. This is not just another headline in a collapsing age. This is a prophetic snapshot of the Roman spirit of empire rising in the modern West. America is not named in Daniel as the final empire, but America has carried the Roman spirit across the modern world. It has exported Roman-style law, military order, global dominance, civic religion, political symbolism, mass entertainment, and imperial power under the banner of freedom and democracy. America calls itself a republic, but it increasingly behaves like an empire. That was Rome's path as well. First the republic, then the strong men, then the spectacle, then the empire. And finally, the inevitable collapse of all of it. The White House lawn has become the arena, and that old Roman spirit is speaking once again. Here at our 250th anniversary, our republic is fading, the spectacle is rising, the Beast system is forming. And the final empire of Antichrist is preparing for its last act before the King of kings returns to break it in pieces and set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed. Is America Mystery Babylon? That's the question we will be looking to answer here on Day 2,279 of 15 Days To Flatten The Curve!

An action-packed week of Vegasy updates, including updated Hard Rock plans, Caesars and MGM transactions, and restaurant and show news The post FHBM #1008: Moths, Minivans, Loons and Pontoons first appeared on Five Hundy By Midnight.

Caesars Entertainment just sold for $17.6 billion — and if you own VICI Properties, you need to hear this. Russ sits down with Travis from Dividend Collection Agency, a retired Navy vet and TipRanks Top 1% analyst, to break down what the Caesars sale actually means for VICI shareholders, whether dividends are overhyped, which covered call ETFs are worth owning, and whether AI is the next airline industry — great for everyone except investors. Oh, and the mistress is always sexier than the wife. You'll have to watch to understand that one.[⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Link to YouTube Video⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠]

Station Casinos belatedly acknowledged a cybersecurity breach this week – almost three months after the hack allegedly happened in March. It's the latest high-profile cybersecurity incident for Las Vegas casino giants, though so far less serious than the ransomware attacks that forced a payout from Caesars and hobbled MGM Resorts in 2023. Even so, Stations is now the subject of a class action lawsuit over the breach and we're left asking: Are Las Vegas casinos doing enough to protect their customers' data? Host Jesse Merrick sits down with Greg Moody, director of UNLV's cybersecurity program, to find out.  Are you a local business owner and need help? Check out UNLV's Cyber Clinic.

Save big on Vegas with Las Vegas Advisor — get 10% off a membership with code MTM (new members, affiliate): lasvegasadvisor.com I went on vacation and they sold Las Vegas. Live from Montenegro this week because the news would not wait — both of the Strip's biggest operators are heading toward going private. Barry Diller's People Inc. (the former IAC) has put a non-binding, all-cash offer on the table to buy the 73.9% of MGM Resorts it doesn't already own at $48.30/share — an ~$18 billion deal — and take the company private. Pair that with the Caesars / Fertitta Entertainment take-private we covered last week, and Las Vegas may be entering a brand-new era owned by the billionaire class instead of Wall Street. Is that good or bad for the guest experience? I make the case. Plus: the Cromwell has officially reopened as the Vanderpump Hotel (new lampshades, the Gigolo cocktail garden, and why it's still the best Caesars property to base yourself at), the Rio's new $27 buffet that's drawing comparisons to a highway motel breakfast, and a little Star Trek: The Experience nostalgia.

The Tim Conway Jr. Show Hour 1 (6.1) It’s a Mark T Monday, and Conway kicks off the hour with a wild freeway rescue after a driver rear-ended a semi-truck on the 10 Freeway in San Dimas. Nothing says Monday like traffic, wrecks, and a freeway story that makes everyone grip the wheel a little tighter. Then the crew dives into the madness of Costco gas, where people will line up forever to save a penny a gallon. While the rest of the country complains about gas prices in the $4 range, Southern California is still living in the land of $5 and $6 gas. That leads to talk about electric cars, charging times, and Elon Musk explaining why filling an EV with electricity takes a whole lot longer than pumping gas. The big Vegas story of the hour: Caesars Entertainment, one of the most iconic names on the Las Vegas Strip, is being sold in a massive deal involving billions in cash and debt. With Vegas tourism facing pressure and casino revenue under the microscope, Conway breaks down what it means for the future of the Strip. Plus, Irvine is getting a new In-N-Out, and this one may have the biggest drive-thru setup yet — because in Southern California, burger lines are basically a competitive sport. Trending Keywords: Mark T Monday, 10 Freeway crash, San Dimas, Costco gas, California gas prices, electric cars, EV charging, Elon Musk, Las Vegas Strip, Caesars Entertainment, Vegas casinos, Fertitta Entertainment, In-N-Out Irvine, drive-thru, Southern California traffic, Conway Show, funny podcast See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week in Vegas history: June 4, 2020, Nevada casinos reopened after the COVID-19 shutdown.   After more than two months closed, casinos across Las Vegas began reopening, including properties on the Strip, downtown, and around the valley. The D and Golden Gate reopened at 12:01 a.m., while other properties followed later that day.  NEWS:   Fertitta Entertainment is buying Caesars Entertainment in a deal valued at $17.6 billion, including about $11.9 billion in assumed debt. The deal would take Caesars private. Shareholders would receive $31 per share, which Reuters describes as nearly a 50% premium to Caesars' stock price before the deal was first reported in February. Tilman Fertitta's company already owns Golden Nugget casinos, the Houston Rockets, and a large restaurant/hospitality portfolio, including brands like Rainforest Café and Bubba Gump Shrimp. Caesars has been under pressure from softer Las Vegas visitation and growing competition in online betting, where rivals like FanDuel and DraftKings are stronger. Caesars' current leadership is expected to stay, including CEO Tom Reeg and CFO Bret Yunker. The deal includes a “go-shop” period through July 11, meaning Caesars can still consider competing offers. If completed, the acquisition would give Fertitta a much larger casino footprint: Caesars controls more than 50 casinos across North America, including Caesars Palace, Harrah's, and Eldorado, plus retail and online sports betting. The article notes the deal could face regulatory scrutiny because of the size and scope of the combined gaming/hospitality business. Vital Vegas reports that a private grand opening party for the newly rebranded Vanderpump Hotel will be held on June 11.   The Heart Attack Grill closed abruptly on May 18. The property posted a passive aggressive rant on their door, stating that the closure was due to casinos pricing out average Americans.   EDC goes to two weekends next year The plan was billed as a way to reduce crowds by spreading them out over two weekends, lol The first of those weekends, “EDC Dusk,” will roll out from May 14-16. The second, “EDC Dawn,” is set for May 21-23, while the full “Dusk Till Dawn Experience” will party from May 13-24.    Johnny Kats is reporting that a new magic-based show “Now You See Me Live” will be moving into the David Copperfield theater at MGM Grand.   Soul Belly BBQ, has opened a new location in the Miracle Mile shops.   New Mirage bar at MGM Grand pool. A user on reddit posted photos of signs at the MGM Grand pool area, directing patrons to a new “Mirage Bar,” complete with the former strip property's iconic palm trees logo.  A look at the pool complex map on the MGM Grand website confirms the change. The site was formerly called the “Splash Bar” and is located between the “Splash Pool” and “Reserve Pool.” MGM Resorts has retained the rights to the Mirage name after selling the Mirage resort site to Hard Rock International.   Tailgate Social, Mandalay Bay's answer to Stadium Swim at Circa downtown, officially opened on May 16. Snoop Dogg performed at the opening The 50,000-square-foot venue features more than 125 feet of LED screens, three heated pools, 25 luxury cabanas, and two premium bungalows    The Clark County commission will be voting to extend the annual Las Vegas Grand Prix, potentially through 2037.   Nellie's Southern Kitchen Closing: The Jonas family restaurant near MGM Grand closed after May 25 service, reducing Southern comfort food options on the Strip.    Drink Las Vegas, a culinary and cocktail festival, will run from Sept. 24 through 27 at four MGM Resorts properties: Aria, Bellagio, The Cosmopolitan, Park MGM. “Drink Las Vegas” will incorporate an opening party, panels and seminars, food and cocktail tastings, lunches, dinners and other experiences at more than 30 venues inside the properties. The event recently announced the chefs, restaurateurs, mixologists, sommeliers and other hospitality professionals who are participating.    Virgin Hotels Las Vegas is reporting its strongest casino performance since reopening in 2021. The property has adjusted its focus to Las Vegas residents first-quarter 2026 data showed slot revenue up nearly 30 percent, coin-in up 10 percent, and table games revenue up 88 percent compared to the same period in 2025.    Tony: Vital Vegas reports the Luxor is getting a new atrium light show. No word on when the show will debut.   The Vegas Golden Knights swept the Colorado Avalanche in round 3 of the Stanley Cup Playoffs This is the third time the team has become the Western Conference champions in their 9-year history Though the Eastern Conference champions are still undecided at the time of recording, it's likely that the Golden Knights will face the Carolina Hurricanes in their bid for another Stanley Cup win.    Oceans 11 returning to theaters Ocean's Eleven is returning to theaters nationwide on June 21 and June 24, 2026, for a special 25th-anniversary re-release as part of Fathom Entertainment's Big Screen Classics series.

After months of speculation, Houston-based billionaire Tillman Fertitta announced Thursday that his company would buy Caesars Entertainment in a deal worth $17.6 billion. It's the second Caesars sale in just six eight years – but will it change the complexion of the Las Vegas Strip? Host Jesse Merrick is joined by Kip Kelly, Founding Creative Director at the Beverly Theater, and Executive Producer Layla Muhammad to break it all down. Plus, the team discusses the wide-reaching ripple effects of BTS's Las Vegas takeover, and whether or not Vegas Golden Knights fill-in coach John Tortorella deserves an apology from … basically everyone after the Knights punched their third ticket to the Stanley Cup Finals in just nine years. Plus, in our members-only bonus segment, we look at why Las Vegas' tax revenues are riding high – and why that hasn't translated for the people who actually live here.  If you enjoyed this interview with IS LUXURY's, Luxury Real Estate Advisor, Hollly Erker learn more here.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander's camp sending a legal warning to Underdog over a foul-baiting board game has sparked a much larger conversation about where the line is between creative sports content and athlete representation rights. Jacob Gramegna, Chris Dierkes, Mike (Peanut Bettor), and Shipper break down what actually happened, why Underdog is refusing to back down, and what this says about how sports brands, players, and platforms are colliding in real time. The crew also dives into a major betting exchange controversy involving bot errors and inconsistent market voiding decisions. When obvious pricing mistakes happen, should exchanges always void the market to protect fairness, or should every bet stand once it's matched? That debate leads into a broader discussion on market integrity, prediction markets, and whether the industry applies rules consistently or selectively depending on who benefits.

The Emperor Julian with Jeremy SwistWe are thrilled to welcome Assistant Professor Jeremy Swist back to the show to discuss all things emperor Julian! Julian's rule as Roman emperor was short, but it also created quite a stir because Julian was keen to turn Rome away from Christianity and to bring back the paganism. How did he do it? Why did he do it? And what's the legacy that he left behind? We consider the details.Jeremy Swist has a PhD in Classics from the University of Iowa, and his research interests include imperial Greek and Roman historiography and rhetoric, late antiquity, classical reception in heavy metal music. He is currently Assistant Professor of Classical Studies at Michigan State University. Jeremy has published and presented extensively, and he has a particular interest in the intersection of heavy metal music and the classical world - we suggest you check out his blog, Heavy Metal Classicist, or our previous episode with him to find out more. In 2024, he translated and produced a dramatic reading of the Emperor Julian's Symposium of the Caesars, which starred some of the finest podcasters and actors in the WORLD! (Maybe us)The Emperor Julian, who ruled Rome between 361 and 363 CE, is one of Jeremy's great passions, and we are thrilled to talk to him about his new volume on this unusual ruler. The book is published by Oxford University Press and is entitled Julian Augustus: Platonism, Myth, and the Refounding of Rome.Abstract from Oxford University Press“The Roman emperor Julian employed both words and deeds to return the empire to paganism and reverse Christianization, inspired by his conversion to the Neoplatonic philosophy and radical pagan Hellenism of Iamblichus, and promoted by his own production of Greek literature. These works present a coherent vision of the providentially guided history and destiny of Rome as a series of (re)foundations enacted by rulers such as Romulus, Numa, and Augustus. Julian offers an Iamblichean approach to interpreting Roman legends, Platonic allegories, and myths of his own creation to articulate his own role in the refounding of the empire. Approaching the wider examination of Julian's imperial self-image on these terms ends up nuancing and challenging common assumptions influenced by the rhetoric of his contemporary proponents. In his reverence for the gods and for philosophy, the emperor's self-construction embraces the identities of a statesman and solider more than philosopher, Roman more than Greek, and mere human rather than semi-divine being. Julian's unique positionality as emperor let him invert the conventions of panegyric whereby rulers equal and surpass the demigods and heroes of myth and history. While distancing himself from the ideal models of virtue and founding that inspire him, he adopts a different set of exemplary figures as mirrors of himself. Statesmen such as Pericles and Scipio, and especially Augustus, serve as precedents for Julian's more realistic conception of his role in refounding the empire, as student and champion of philosophers, guardian of law and tradition, and servant of the gods.”The return to the old godsJulian's rule was short but it left quite an impact. We chat with Jeremy about some of the ideas Julian put forward about Rome, the foundation stories that underpinned its self-definition, and what might have been if weren't for an unfortunate spear that wounded Julian and ended his life just two years into his reign.Sound CreditsOur music is by the superb Bettina Joy de Guzman.For our full show notes and edited transcripts, head on over to https://partialhistorians.com/Support the showPatreonKo-FiRead our booksRex: The Seven Kings of RomeYour Cheeky Guide to the Roman Empire Hosted on Acast.

Turning Tides: Palestine will cover the period from 30,000 B.C.E. to Present, in which Palestine tries to maintain its diversity and cultural heritage, while being ravaged by the effects of colonization, settler-colonialism, and the violent weaponization of religious text to force conversion and assimilation. The fourth episode, Romans, will cover the period from 135 C.E. to 638, in which the Western Empire falls and the Eastern Empire holds, while Christianity becomes the dominant religion in Palestine.If you'd like to donate or sponsor the podcast, our PayPal is @TurningTidesPodcast1, or you can donate to us through our Buy Me a Coffee link: buymeacoffee.com/theturningtidespodcast.

Saint Constantine was born in 272, the son of Constantius Chlorus, ruler of the western part of the Roman Empire, and St Helen. When his father died in 306 he was proclaimed successor to the throne. The empire was ruled at that time by several Caesars, each with his own territory. When Constantine learned that the Caesars Maxentius and Maximinus had joined against him, he marched on Italy. It was there that, on the eve of a decisive battle outside Rome, he saw in the sky a radiant Cross with the words "In this sign conquer." He ordered that a battle-standard be made bearing the image of a cross and inscribed with the Name of Jesus Christ. The following day he and his forces attacked and won a spectacular victory. He entered Rome in triumph and in 312 was proclaimed "Emperor of the West" by the Senate. (His brother-in-law Licinius ruled in the East.) Soon thereafter he issued his "Edict of Milan," whereby Christianity was officially tolerated for the first time, and persecution of Christians ceased. (Many believe, mistakenly, that the Edict made Christianity the only legal religion; in fact, it proclaimed freedom of religion throughout the Empire).   Licinius, though he pretended to accept the Edict, soon began persecuting Christians in his domain. In response, Constantine fought and defeated him in 324, becoming sole Emperor of the entire Roman Empire. In 324 he laid the foundations of a new capital in the town of Byzantium; in 330 he inaugurated the new capital city, naming it "New Rome" and "Constantinople." In 325 he called the First Ecumenical Council at Nicea, attending its sessions himself. Shortly before his repose in 337, he received Holy Baptism; he died on Holy Pentecost, at the age of sixty-five, and was interred in the Church of the Holy Apostles in Constantinople.   St Constantine's holy mother Helen, in her role as "Augusta" of the Empire, founded countless churches. She traveled to Jerusalem and found the True Cross on which the Lord was crucified. In the Holy Land she established churches at the sites of Christ's Nativity and burial, which still stand today in much-modified form. She died at about eighty years of age.

Heart Attack Grill has closed in downtown Las Vegas after 15 years, and its goodbye statement took a flamethrower to modern Vegas. Shawn and Mark talk about whether the restaurant had a real point about Vegas pricing out the middle class, or whether the whole thing was one last over-the-top bit from a place built on excess. They also cover Travis Pastrana riding through Boulder Station, the Caesars/Omnia jump debate, Plaza's Wiseguy Getaway package, Commonwealth's redesign, Gaudi Bar returning at Sunset Station, EDC bottle service prices and Sphere Abu Dhabi.
