MEXICO (AP): Elpresidente Vicente Fox dijoel jueves que su gobiernopresentará una protesta for-mal por las recientes reformasmigratorias estadouni-denses, que incluyen lacolocación de muros en lafrontera y más requisitos paraotorgar licencias deconducir.

Fox no proporcionódetalles de la estrategia deMéxico, pero funcionariosde su gobierno hanplanteado la posibilidad dellevar el caso ante lasNaciones Unidas u otras

“Nos parece inútil uncamino por la vía de los muros,de las bardas, del uso de lafuerza, de la violencia”, afirmóel mandatario.

Las nuevas disposicionesrequieren que los estadosverifiquen que las personasque soliciten una licencia demanejo estén legalmente en elpaís. También le dificultan alos inmigrantes obtener unaamnistía, y facilitananteponerse a las leyesambientales para construir unmuro a lo largo de la frontera

de México con California.El presidente

estadounidense George W.Bush las firmó el miércoles yamenazan con afectar lasrelaciones entre ambospaíses, después de querecientemente losmandatarios hicieron unesfuerzo por mejorarlas.

Bush y Fox iniciaron susgobiernos como amigoscercanos, pero pronto sedistanciaron debido a lainvasión estadounidense aIrak y al estancamiento deun acuerdo que habríapermitido más migración le-gal a Estados Unidos.

América Central, hasta suplan de moderar lasrestricciones de inmigración.

Podrían tratarse de unatemprana advertencia sobrela pérdida de poder en supresidencia.

Bush regresó de su viajede celebración por Europapara encontrar que suprograma de política nacionalrequería de su rápida atención.Y uno de sus tareas esapuntalar el respaldorepublicano donde seaposible.

“El presidente mantienecontacto regular con losmiembros del Congreso, conlos líderes legislativos, sobrela manera de continuar connuestras prioridadescompartidas”, destacó elmiércoles el portavoz de laCasa Blanca, ScottMcClellan.

Sin embargo, algunas deesas prioridades hanprovocado desacuerdos, yotras no han generado elconsenso que esperaba la Casa

hacia un enfrentamientoconstitucional sobre lapropuesta del líder de lamayoría republicana en elSenado, Bill Frist, de alterarlas normas sobre las medidasdilatorias en las votacionessobre nombramientos paramagistraturas. La medida esde prioridad para la mayoríade conservadores del partido.Pero no todos los republicanosestán a favor de eliminar unavieja tradición del senado.

Las dudas expresadas porcuatro republicanosintegrantes del Comité deRelaciones Exteriores delSenado provocó unaplazamiento de tres semanasen la votación sobre ladesignación de John Boltoncomo embajador en lasNaciones Unidas.

La encuesta depopularidad de Bush hadeclinado a un 45%. Y lasituación en Irak sigue siendodifícil. Una ola de ataquessuicidas sacudieron a variasciudades de Irak el miércoles,

dejando más de 60 muertos ymás de un centenar de heridos.

Su plan para un acuerdo delibre comercio con seis paísescentroamericanos y del Car-ibe ha provocado mayoroposición demócrata y departe de algunos republicanosde estados productores de tex-tiles y azucareros, incluso elpresidente del Comité deAgricultura del Senado,Saxby Chambliss, de Geor-gia.

Asimismo su plan para unprograma de trabajadoresmigrantes propuesto en suprimer período de gobierno,sigue captando oposición dela derecha, especialmente delos legisladores republicanosde los estados fronterizos delsudoeste estadounidense.

Por lo general lospresidentes en su segundomandato pierden poder,faltando un año para laspróximas elecciones, peroBush “se lo está buscando, sies que ya no ha llegado a esepunto”, comentó el analistapolítico Bruce Buchanan, dela Universidad de Texas.

By MORGAN LEEAssociated Press WriterMEXICO CITY (AP), May14: México’s PresidentVicente Fox on Saturdayissued a written statementexpressing his “enormousrespect for minorities” aftera comment on the workethic of Mexicans in theUnited States promptedsome critical headlines.

In a public appearanceon Friday, México, Foxsaid, “There’s no doubt thatthe Mexican men andwomen—full of dignity,willpower and a capacityfor work—are doing thework that not even blackswant to do in the UnitedStates.”

Fox’s remarks onFriday in the western cityof Puerto Vallarta came aday after Méxicoannounced it will formallyprotest recent U.S.immigration reforms,including the decision to

extend walls along theborder and make it harder forillegal migrants to getdriver’s licenses.

The president’s officeissued a statement onSaturday night expressingFox’s respect for minorities“whatever their racial,ethnic and religious origin.”

“He laments anddemonstrates hisdisagreement withinterpretations that accusehis comments of beingracist,” the statement read.

“The purpose of theremarks was nothing else butto make clear the importancethat the Mexican workershave today in thedevelopment and progressof U.S. society.”

Pedestrians walkingalong a central México Citythoroughfare on Saturdaysaid Fox simply had beengetting at the truth aboutwho often does U.S.-America’s dirtiest jobs.

“There is nodiscrimination because ifthe people of color, theblacks, do not like therough work, let someoneelse do it,” said electricianAlonzo Gómez, of MexicoCity. “Here, there are a lotof people who want to gothere.”

While racial epithetsrelated to Indian heritageare taboo in México,friends and stranger alikecan be heard addressingeach other by nicknamesbased on physicalappearance, includingskin color.

“I don’t know what totell you,” said MarcoAntonio Ruiz, a laborerfrom México City, whenasked whether Fox’scomment was appropriate.

“Many people crossthe border to do work aslaborers, work inrestaurants, work in thefields,” he said. “Thegringos don’t do it.”

HAVANA (AP): Cuba onTuesday signed a generalpromise on Tuesday to buyfood from Vermont, and anofficial said U.S. restric-tions—not rivalry withVenezuela—are holdingback larger U.S. sales.

Pedro Alvarez, head ofthe Cuban governmentfood purchasing agencyAlimport, signed the agree-ment with Vermont Sen.James Jeffords. It gave nofigures for how many apples,milk or head of livestockCuba might buy over thecoming two years.

Presidents Fidel Castroof Cuba and Hugo Chávez

of Venezuela last weeksigned a $412 million dealfor fuel and other goods—some of which until now havecome from the United States.

Alvarez said U.S. govern-ment restrictions—not theVenezuela deal—were harm-ing trade.

“What the [U.S.] Ameri-cans should do is eliminatethe restrictions, put theirproducts on equal terms andtrade can grow,” he said.

The U.S. Congress in 2001eased restrictions on foodsales to Cuba, leading tosome US$1.3 billion in salessince that point. But the BushAdministration this year im-posed tighter rules on how

Cuban signs deal with VermontBy ANDREA RODRIGUEZAssociated Press Writer

Cuba must pay for suchgoods.

Cuba has said that sentmillions of dollars of busi-ness away from U.S. farmersto other countries.

Jeffords also criticizedthe embargo and restric-tions on visits to Cuba.

“Clearly the Cubanpeople are anxious forcloser relations with theAmerican people,” he said.“I believe a majority of[U.S.] Americans feel thesame way.”

Jeffords, who has an-nounced plans to retire, saidhe would “do all I can to liftthe trade embargo and pro-mote closer relations be-tween our peoples and ourtwo governments.”

NEW YORK (AP): Migrantrights groups on Wednesdayattacked the Senate’s passageof new driver’s license rulesaimed at preventing terrorism,saying they won’t secure thenation and reflect surginghostility toward the foreign-born in the United States.

“This is clearly an anti-im-migrant bill that’s going to havea very harmful impact on theLatino community and all im-migrant communities,”saidMichele Waslin, director of im-migration policy research at theNational Council of La Raza(NCLR).

“It doesn’t make us oneiota safer. Not a single immi-grant is going to be returned tohis or her home country ifthey’re denied a driver’s li-cense.”

The REAL ID Act wouldrequire states to verify thatpeople who apply for a driver’slicense are in the country le-gally. It would also make itharder for immigrants to gainamnesty, and easier to over-ride environmental laws tobuild a barrier along the Mexi-can border in California.

The provision was foldedinto an emergency militaryspending bill that earmarks$82 billion for the war in Iraq.It was approved by the Houselast week and went to U.S.President George W. Bush,who rapidly signed it.

Immigrants’ advocates say

MÉXICO CITY (AP):President Vicente Fox saidThursday México will for-mally protest recent U.S. im-migration changes—knownas the REAL ID Act—, in-cluding the decision to ex-tend walls along the borderand make it harder for illegalmigrants to get driver’s li-censes.

Fox didn’t give details ofMéxico’s plan, but officialsin his administration haveraised the possibility of tak-ing their case to the UnitedNations or other internationalorganizations.

“We think it is useless topursue walls, barriers, the useof force and violence,” hesaid.

Speaking to foreign re-porters later Thursday, Inte-rior Minister Santiago Creelsaid Mexican officials wouldmeet with the U.S. govern-ment before deciding whatkind of action to take.

The new U.S. provisionsrequire states to verify thatpeople who apply for adriver’s license are in thecountry legally. They alsomake it harder for migrants togain amnesty, and easier tooverride environmental lawsto build a barrier/wall alongthe Mexican border in Cali-fornia.

They were signed by U.S.President George W. Bush onWednesday, and threaten tounravel recently patched re-lations between the UnitedStates and México.

Bush and Fox began their

the measure is the latest ex-ample of U.S.-America’s in-creasingly hostile climatetoward foreign-born resi-dents, an atmosphere dra-matically worsened by theterror attacks of Sept. 11,2001, and continually fu-eled by the ongoing war inIraq.

“America is a country ofparadoxes: We are a countryof immigrants, yet we attackimmigrants,” said WadeHenderson, president of theLeadership Council on CivilRights, a coalition group inWashington, D.C. that inMarch sent a petition—signed by 64 member orga-nizations—asking on legis-lators to vote against the act.

“The REAL ID Act is themost blatant attack on immi-grant rights since the lastmajor overhaul of immigra-tion law in 1996,” he said.

Henderson and other ad-vocates said the more than10 million undocumentedimmigrants already in thecountry—with more arrivingmonthly—demonstrate thepressing need for compre-hensive immigration reform.Such changes are beingdrafted by several senatorsand are expected to includea proposed guest worker pro-gram that would allow immi-grants already in the UnitedStates to work legally.

“Rather than spending

our time diddling about withissues of who’s going to driveand who’s not going to drive inthis country, we should addressthe whole question of immigra-tion reform,” said César Perales,president of the Puerto RicanLegal Defense and EducationFund, based in New York.

Opponents complained thatthe immigration measures werecombined with an emergencymeasure for military spending,forcing a rushed vote with noSenate hearings amid heavypolitical pressure.

“This wasn’t vetted, and it wasattached to this political must-pass bill,” said Christine Gleichert,legislative director for the Ameri-can-Arab Anti-DiscriminationCommittee. “We know senatorsand members of Congress can’tand won’t vote against fundingfor our troops, but this provisionshould not have been attached toit. They sold it as part of nationalsecurity.”

All but one of the 19 hijack-ers in the Sept. 11 attacks hadsome form of U.S. identifica-tion, some of it fraudulent, theSept. 11 commission found. Thecommission recommended thefederal government set stan-dards for birth certificates andother identification documents,including driver’s licenses.

Congress created a panel tonegotiate new driver’s licensestandards, but the new rules su-persede the panel.

Advocates say the new mea-

administrations as closefriends, but soon parted waysover the U.S.-led initiative inIraq and the United States’failure to take up a migrationaccord that would have letmore migrants cross legallyinto the United States.

Relations improved afterBush introduced a scaled-back migration plan thatwould have allowed Mexi-cans with U.S. job offers towork temporarily in theUnited States. But the pro-posal has stalled.

Fox said his job now wasto “redouble efforts” inachieving a migration accordand “present correspondingcomplaints when humanrights are violated.”

“I think it is much moreconstructive the work thatwe have pending, and thatwe hope to finalize this year,”he said.

He said México wouldfight the new initiatives bypresenting “a formal and firmcomplaint against the optionthat has nothing to do withthe harmonious develop-ment of relations between theUnited States and México.”

Some U.S. lawmakers ar-gued the bill was necessaryto protect the United Statesfrom terrorists.

sure could actually backfirebecause many undocumentedimmigrants’ personal informa-tion will no longer be kept instate databases, making itmuch harder to track them.They also say that, with fewerlicensed drivers, they expectan increase in drivers who lackauto insurance.

Some states have voicedopposition to the REAL IDAct, and there are early signsthat some may refuse to imple-ment it for lack of funding,among other issues. The mea-sure gives them three years tomeet the new standards. Inaddition, state legislators andcourts have already begun tocraft their own rules on theissue. In Utah and Tennessee,new laws mandate that un-documented immigrants turnover their driver’s licenses andget new driving cards, whichare not valid as official identi-fication and cannot be used toboard a plane.

On Tuesday, a state judgein New York ruled that theDepartment of Motor Vehiclesmay not deny licenses to thosewho cannot prove they arecitizens. State officials plan toappeal.

“In the short term, there willbe lots of confusion,”Henderson said. “There was abroad coalition of groups thatopposed the REAL ID Act ...and they’ll continue to look atimplementation. Our view isthat provisions of this law willprove largely unattainable.”

poco tarde.¿Y usted, alumno?¡Yo fui al aeropuerto a

recibirlo!• Entra una señora a la

• Jaimito estaba en el salónde clase con sus compañeros.Como la profesora no llegaba,todos los alumnos comenzarona hacer alboroto. Cuando llególa profesora vio el desordenque había y comenzó ainterrogar a los niños.”Juanita, ¿Qué haz hechotú?”

”Yo dibujé en la pizarra.””Pedrito, y tú, ¿Qué hiciste?”

”Yo tiré mi pupitre contra elsuelo.”

”Jaimito, y tú, ¿Quéhiciste?”

”Yo tiré serpentina por laventana.”

”Caramba, aprendan deJaimito que no es un malcriadocomo ustedes.”

Pero al pasar unos minutos,tocan la puerta de la clase yentra una niña toda golpeada.La profesora le pregunta:

“¿Quién eres?”“Yo me llamo Serpentina.”• Cierto día se encuentra

Pepito acostado en su cama,cuando siente que le empiezan apicar los zancudos, entonces vacorriendo con su mamá y le dice:

“¡Mamá, mamá, me estánpicando los mosquitos!”Y la mamá le dice:”No te apures hijito, solamenteespántalos y ya no pasa nada.”Entonces el niño la obedece ylos espanta agitando susmanitas, cuando de repente vepasar unas luciernagas, y sesale corriendo de su cuartogritando muy asustado:“¡Mamá, mamá, ahora me estánbuscando con linternas!”

• Un día Jaimito le dice a sumamá:

”¿Sabes mamá? la vecinade al lado sabe mucho, esinteligente.”

- En qué trabaja tu mamá?

A lo que Pepito contesta: desustituta.

- De sustituta? qué hace?- Pues toma licor con los

hombres y les baila y enalgunas ocasiones se acuestacon ellos y le dan dinero.

La maestra le diceentonces:

- Tu mama no es sustituta,es prostituta.

- Ah no la prostituta es mitía, pero cuando ella no puedeir mi mamá la sustituye.

• Estaba una vez Jaimito enla escuela y le dice la maestra:

Weekly HoroscopeBY SEÑORITA ANA

★★★★★ ★★★★★★★★★★

ARIES: (March 21-April 20)An emotional upset may leave you feeling rather sorry for

yourself, but things are really not as bad as they may seemright now. Give it all a second chance. Find a way to give awayitems that have lost their usefulness, to those who willappreciate them.

TAURUS: (April 21 - May 21)You are definitely in a good mood. Just be careful what

you wish for since you just may get it. Treat yourself to aluxury you seldom consider. Have patience concerning acurrent project. Your ship will come in, and worrying will nothasten the process.

GEMINI: (May 22 - June 21)An organized approach will get the job done. Money may

come from an unexpected source to help you realize yourgoals. Your lover needs attention now. Make sure it is qualitytime and the two of you discuss matters of mutual importanceand goals.

CANCER: (June 22 - July 23)It may be hard to maintain your optimism - there isn’t

anything wrong, you are just in a dark, brooding mood. Yourhealth, both physical and mental may be affected by stresseither at home or at work. Make necessary changes and acceptwhat you can’t change.

LEO: (July 24- August 23)A very generous financial gift may materialize and can

remove a great deal of worrying. Now you can really go afterwhat’s important, and a creative endeavor is at the top of yourlist. Remove yourself from an obligation that takes too muchenergy with little return.

VIRGO: (August 24 - September 23)If something has been lost, you are likely to find it. Don’t

allow your pride to stand in the way of asking forgiveness ofsomeone you may have wronged. This estrangement maytake awhile to patch up, and may never be the same. It is a hardlesson to learn.

LIBRA: (September 24 - October 23)An unusual opportunity may present itself, which may

involve public appearances. Loving thoughts are expressedto you and these remarks may not be just passing pleasantry,but an invitation for something deeper. Clear communica-tion can smooth the way.

SCORPIO: (October 24 - November 22)If you are feeling tied down by some relationship which

is draining you, it may be time to declare your independence.Make your break in a quiet, but firm manner. Check andrecheck your money resources, and be sure you are doingsomething to create future security.

SAGITTARIUS: (November 23 - December 21)There is a wonderful sense of the many possibilities life

holds in store for you this week. This attitude will fill you withoptimism and high energy. Those around you may be turnedoff by your manner; remember you cannot convince every-one to feel the same way you do.

CAPRICORN: (December 22 - January 20)If you are feeling a bit crowded, it is very important to

speak up and take time and space for yourself, even if onlytemporarily. You may receive news about money, the infor-mation will not be as positive as you’d like - learn not to getattached to expectations.

AQUARIUS: (January 21 - February 19)You are finding yourself in a rut this week, and it will take

a bit of effort on your part to get out of it. Try something new.You need time to play. It may be best to get to the bottom ofsome emotional upheaval before proceeding—logical ap-proach is not satisfactory.

PISCES: (February 20 - March 20)This week feels like a new lease on life. Do something that

gets your blood pumping. Physical overexertion will do yougood. You and your mate may experience greater attractionfor each other if you put a little distance between yourselves.Get more input before making any moves.

IF THIS WEEK IS YOUR BIRTHDAY: Attractive andkeenly articulate, you are always at your best in front ofpeople. Very few people can resist you, and very few try.Talking to much is an admitted problem for you, and you mayhave alienated a friend or lover with your words. Try to makeamends.

The possibility of watch-ing Jennifer López and JaneFonda tear each other apart in“Monster-in-Law” inspires acertain morbid curiosity—something akin to Godzillavs. Mothra, with bronzed skinand blond highlights.

By this point, J.Lo and J.Fohave created such larger-than-life personae that they are morethan mere actresses: They’remultimedia empires, separatedby a generation.

That’s part of the vagueallure of “Monster-in-Law,”Fonda’s first film in 15 years.But it also begs the question:Why would she choose thisproject, which thrusts her intohumiliating physical comedy,to mark her return to the screen?

She could have done any-thing. She has done every-

thing—except play a true vil-lain, which she gets to do as themovie’s titular terror. Andwhile she truly seems to begiving it her all and does exudea certain radiance, the film fromdirector Robert Luketic (“Le-gally Blonde”) and first-timescreenwriter Anya Kochoff re-duces her to two-dimensional,Joan Crawfordesque divadom.

Fonda plays Viola Fields, ahigh-powered, veteran newsanchor patterned after BarbaraWalters, who has a meltdownafter she’s fired for being tooold. But she emerges from psy-chiatric treatment with thecomforting thought that shestill has her son—her preciousbaby boy, Kevin (MichaelVartan)—who has managed tobecome a hot young surgeondespite Viola’s incessantsmothering.

LAS VEGAS (AP): A cityfond of imploding its past andreinventing itself paused thisweekend to celebrate its 100thbirthday with a look back at asurprisingly rich pioneer his-tory.

“Las Vegas was a speck inthe desert in 1905,” Nevadastate archivist Guy Rocha saidof a town in a bowl-shapedvalley rimmed by jagged graymountains and nourished by anatural spring. The name isSpanish for “the meadows.”

“Now there’s not a place inthe modern world that doesn’trecognize Las Vegas,” Rochasaid. “That’s not hype. It iswhat it is.”

American Indians and trav-elers on the Old Spanish Trailwatered at the springs, but thetown got its start because therailroad from Salt Lake City toLos Angeles needed a place tohouse workers.

Today, it’s a go-go, 24-hourmetropolis of casinos, night-clubs and restaurants that lures37 million tourists a year.Marquee casinos with danc-ing fountains and canalssprouted where the springsdried up long ago.

Down the Las Vegas Stripare scale models of the EiffelTower, the Statue of Libertyand an Egyptian pyramid. Upthe Strip, the curvy Wynn LasVegas resort opened last monthat a cost of $2.7 billion.

Not surprising for this city

of excess, there’s nothinghumble about Las Vegas’ cel-ebration of the May 15, 1905,land auction that drew hardybuyers to dusty home sites inwhat is now downtown.

A birthday cake larger thana basketball court, fireworks,concerts, simultaneous “IDo’s” for 100 couples, and aresurrected “HelldoradoDays” parade are scheduled inand around the town that didn’thave a paved road until 1924.

It now has 1.7 million resi-dents and car-choked free-ways to funnel residents towork from sprawling suburbs.

“We want the whole worldto celebrate with us,” saidMayor Oscar Goodman, aformer mob lawyer now in hissecond term.

Drawing attention andpeople was a lesson learned acentury ago from townsfolkartful with hyperbole and un-blinking pragmatism.

Skeptical of the 1900 U.S.Census, which put the areapopulation at 30 people,Michael Green, a CommunityCollege of Southern Nevadaprofessor, checked residents’signatures.

“They look uncharacteris-tically alike,” said Green, co-author of “Las Vegas: A Cen-tennial History.” Many prob-ably worked a ranch owned byHelen Stewart, who sold al-most 3 square miles to Will-iam Andrews Clark forhomesites. Clark, namesake forwhat is now Clark County,

was principal owner of the SanPedro, Los Angeles & Salt LakeRailroad.

More settlers soon came—drawn from Los Angeles andSalt Lake City by cheap landand the promise of train ticketrefund if they plunked down aslittle as $100 on a lot.

“A $25 down payment anda $22 round-trip ticket to L.A.,”recalled Ed Von Tobel Jr., 92,whose father bought two par-cels and opened a lumber yardto supply the town’s first build-ing boom.

Air conditioning was in-vented in 1906, but it would beyears before it reached the Ho-tel Nevada, now named theGolden Gate.

“The first question is always,‘What did you do about the hotweather?”’ said Von Tobel.

“We didn’t notice the heatin those days,” said his wife,Evelyne Von Tobel, 90.

Years later, motorists wouldbe lured off the Los Angeles-to-Salt Lake City route by bill-boards touting cheap shrimpcocktail (still 99 cents at theGolden Gate) and free rooms forgamblers.

Las Vegas got its first high-way, golf course and daily pas-senger air service in the 1920s,but was hurt by a railroad strike.

It recovered in 1931 whenstate lawmakers relaxed divorcelaws and legalized casino gam-bling, and the federal govern-ment began building whatwould become Hoover Dam onthe Colorado River, 30 miles

east of town.Rocha called dam con-

struction “a threshold event.”“It was one of the largest

public works project in thehistory of the nation, and withwater and hydroelectric poweravailable, people could startthinking about bigger things.”

World War II brought sol-diers to a gunnery range thatbecame Nellis Air Force Base,workers to Basic MagnesiumInc. to produce lightweightmetal in Henderson for the wareffort, and gamblers to down-town Fremont Street.

“The Apache, the Boulder,the Frontier Club, the Pioneer.A lot had Western names anda very Western orientation,”Green said of the neon-lit casi-nos in downtown’s “GlitterGulch.”

Helldorado Days started in1935 as a Western-themedpageant featuring a parade,rodeo and “Whiskerino”beard-growing contest that ranuntil 1998.

The Western theme con-tinued with the opening of theEl Rancho on the Strip _ astretch of Las Vegas Boule-vard south of town in ClarkCounty.

Benjamin “Bugsy” Siegelbroke ground in 1945 with$1.5 million from New Yorkand California underworldassociates on a hotel fartherdown the Strip. A year laterand $4.5 million over budget,it opened as the Flamingo.Within months the legendary

mobster was shot to death _ buthis hotel would thrive.

“The Flamingo touched offthe Strip building boom,”Green said. Casino hotels thatfollowed included theThunderbird, Desert Inn, Sa-hara, Sands, Riviera, Hacienda,New Frontier and Tropicana.

In 1949, mobster Morris“Mo” Dalitz arrived from Cleve-land to open the Desert Inn andLas Vegas Country Club, anddiversified into housing, a hos-pital and other development.

In 1955, the Moulin Rougeopened as the city’s first inte-grated casino, drawing blackand white entertainers after theirStrip performances. It closedwithin six months, but it led toa landmark 1960 agreement todesegregate Strip hotels.

On the Strip, Frank Sinatraplayed the Sands’ Copa Roomnightly and caroused afterhours with “Rat Pack” buddiesDean Martin, Sammy Davis Jr.,Joey Bishop, and Peter Lawford.

The gambling industrygained credibility with the cre-ation of the Nevada GamingCommission and “respectabil-ity,” Green said, when reclu-sive tycoon Howard Hughesdecided to settle in the DesertInn, one of several casinos hebought.

“After he arrived, the citywas seen as a clean investment

for people who didn’t have tohave a rap sheet,” Green said.

Hughes moved in in 1966,by coincidence the same yearthat Caesar’s Palace, Las Ve-gas’ first themed casino,opened. Elvis Presley gave LasVegas a “viva” identity dur-ing his 837 performances atthe Hilton from 1969 to 1977.

Twelve years later, SteveWynn opened The Miragewith an exotic tropical themeand a fire-belching volcano.The first new hotel on the Stripin 16 years sparked a competi-tive casino boom—and a waveof spectacular implosions.

Gone are the Dunes, theLandmark, the Sands, the Ha-cienda, the El Rancho, and theDesert Inn.

In their places aremultibillion dollar hotel-ca-sinos and a tourism machinethat runs ads in the nation’sbiggest cities inviting visitorsto a town where, “What Hap-pens Here, Stays Here.”

“There’s so much one-upmanship going on with thehotels,” observed Leslie Smith,77, a retired builder and life-long resident. “How can theyspend so much money?”

“Megastars, megabucksmegacasinos,” Rocha said.“You can’t find anything elselike it on the planet. The ques-tion is, what’s next?”

AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY / ADA EMPLOYER / A DRUG FREE WORK-PLACE

Then Kevin brings homehis new girlfriend, López’sCharlie, just as Viola is strug-gling to maintain even a tenu-ous grasp on her mental healthand sobriety. (López’s charac-ter is sweet and slightly bohe-mian for contrast, but she’smuch more fun to watch whenshe’s the one with a meaty roleto sink her perfect teeth into.Here, she’s sort of gauzy,though not as inert as the partshe played in the remake of“Shall We Dance?”)

Once the too-good-to-be-true Kevin gets down on oneknee and proposes marriage—pright in front of his mother,over tea and cake on the ter-race—the cartoonish game ofsabotage begins.

Viola plans an engagementparty for the happy couple, whereshe cruelly introduces her soon-to-be daughter-in-law to her es-teemed guests from around theglobe by saying, “This is Charlie.She’s a temp.” She also arrangesto have a couture gown waitingfor Charlie, which is too small,allowing López a chance to pokefun at her famous posterior.

Viola then moves intoKevin and Charlie’s love nestunder the guise of needingconstant care and companion-ship, and proceeds to trackCharlie’s every move and keepher awake all night with fakehistrionics.

Being the heroine in a ro-

Movie Reviewof J Lo & J Fo(Continued from Page 7)

mantic comedy, Charlie has acadre of trusty friends to whomshe can vent, including theobligatory effeminate gay man(Adam Scott). Viola, meanwhile,gets help with her schemes fromher wisecracking personal as-sistant, Ruby (Wanda Sykes—and it’s a good thing she’s thereto deliver the movie’s few funnylines).

Charlie finally gets wise toViola’s devious plan to derailher wedding, and the twowomen candidly confront eachother, but the moment is morecompelling in concept thanexecution. Waiting for whatwill happen when these twoenormous creatures fill up the

screen provides a juicy setupfor a bitter, one-joke letdown.And you know Viola will havea change of heart in the end,though realistically such anevolution seems totally impos-sible.

On Charlie’s wedding day,she and Viola literally come toblows, until the estimableElaine Stritch arrives as Viola’sown monster-in-law to giveboth women a beat-down andprovide some grace and civil-ity. By then, it’s too little toolate.

“Monster-in-Law,” a NewLine Cinema release, runs 95minutes. RATING: One and ahalf stars out of four.
