2009.
During the NBS WiTEL press
conferance held at Hollywood Digital
confab on October 23, 2009,
FCC Chairman Julius
Genachowski won a victory on his first
major policy issue at the agency.
The Federal
Communications Commission announced
they would begin a data-gathering process.
Commissioners may consider whether
regulations should apply to not just
Internet access providers but also those
that feed content to the
Web.
The LA Times reported that,
with a unanimous
vote to move forward on a rule-making
process for how the government would
police access to the
Internet.
The chairman, picked by President Obama,
said, "The heart of the problem is that,
taken together, we face a dangerous
combination of an uncertain legal
framework with ongoing as well as emerging
challenges to a free and open Internet."

- Apple vs. Taiwan - Apple Sues Taiwan
smart-phone maker for Service Mark
infringement.
Everyone knows when the Wireless
Telephone®© Service Marks
were first introduced to the world in
1902," says WiTEL©©
spokesman, Mark Anderson. "It was 'A
First' for anything and everything
that looks like a telephone using an
antenna to transmit and receive EMW
signals."
Just imagine the surprised look on the
faces of onlookers during the public
demonstrations in 1902. Two NBS
WiTEL®© phones were linked
and connected together with two WT-phone
numbers. A WiFi187 "hot spot" was
created by his aerials grounded in the
earth. "No matter if it's a 'Cell
Phone', 'Mobile Phone', or
'iPhone', it's still a Wireless
Telephone®©," says
Anderson.
When Apple first introduced its iPhone in
2007, not only did it prove up the
original NBS WiTEL®©
designs by its inventor, N.B.
Stubblefield, but according to the numbers
from the Cupertino, Calif., company Apple
has sold more than "40 million units.
Mark Anderson, of PSI
WiTEL©© said,
"the
accused copy-cat'r of the iPhone was
HTC, a Taiwanian company that produces the
Nexus One phone."
*Take2). Apple alleges in
their (January 5, 2010) action, --
that HTC Nexus, had designed and uses the
Android operating system to deceive
consumers. Google Inc. endorsed the HTC
product and is now selling the
WiTEL®© Nexus-Android unit
directly to consumers.
The Bratz Doll $$$ payoff was big news in
2009. Troy Cory, CEO of the NBS
WiTEL®© Trust, and
co-author of the books, 'Bank of America,
The Tortfeasors' -- and 'Disappointments
Are Great -- Follow The Money', loves the
suit. He says, "it might end up like - the
Barbie vs. Bratz Doll case. Mattel owning
MGA Entertainment, and all of their
Service Marks. As one can see, the
copy-cat'tor, became a caper.

2010 - The
WiTEL®© Service Mark
Lawsuit Explosion / This Year
-- "It's An Mobile Patent Lawsuit
Explosion," writes Nick Bilton in a New
York Times headline. In today's world of
"Stealing" the Service Marks
®© owned by 100-year old
organizations like NBS
WiTEL®© - 1898 and Edison,
is a big legal Game. The best way to stop
the "Stealing" of WiTEL®©'
intellectual property rights is to SUE,
with a Capital "S."
"And that's exactly what Apple, along with
a few other metaphors are doing for us
right now," says Anderson. Play a simple
melody, with lovable sexy legal words,
then monetize it by giving the Suit a
'Look-Listen -- iPhone
WiTEL®© look."
"We can sit by and watch competitors steal
our patented inventions, or we can do
something about it. We've decided to do
something about it," Apple Chief Executive
Steve Jobs said in a statement. "We
think competition is healthy, but
competitors should create their own
original technology, not steal ours."
"The U.S. Government Created EMW -
MONEY FACTORY."
The quotes from Steve Jobs were
about the same words used by the U.S.
attorney general in the Kinsbury
Commitment of 1910. Just before World
War I commenced, "the commitment became a
"Money Factory for AT&T, GE, and
governments."
Not only did the regulatory seizure take
place in the U.S.A., but in Europe. The
most important elements of wireless
telephony, were taken from the author, and
inventor of the Service Marks, by NBS
Wireless Telephone®©.
After the regulatory seisure of both, the
EMW portion of "Telephony" and
"Telegraphy", they were reassigned to
AT&T, and several other Telecom
monopoly's" -- says Anderson.
According to the Apple recent filings, the
Taiwan company violated patents include
unlocking mechanisms, power conservation
efforts, touch-screen scrolling, scaling
and rotating capabilities. Apple is
seeking monetary damages and an injunction
that would prevent HTC from using, selling
and marketing products breaching the
patents in the U.S.
Lawsuits -
"As An Investment"
"It should be pointed out," says Anderson,
"that today's Service Mark plaintiffs are
having a heyday. Their filings are based
on the words, WiFi-187, WiMAX-187, and
"seamlessly." Advancing a land line -
online wired system to a wired-wireless
antenna tower system is big business.
As a result companies that only buy and
sell Service Marks, (include trademarks,
patents, and copyrights) are taking the
"seamlessly" WiTEL®©
efforts serious. They plan to win big
bucks from established online systems.
"But, continues Anderson, "what most of
those online firms, and Telecom switching
to the wireless industry have foregotten,
to become a real Wireless
Telephone®© operator, they
too must apply, and receive for a
WiTEL®© license from NBS
WiTEL®©."
As for "patent trolls," Eric Von Hippel, a
professor of technological innovation at
M.I.T.'s Sloan School of Management, says,
"if companies entered a litigious dispute
"they would usually come to an agreement
to simply share each other's patents." But
he said a new genre of patent lawsuits,
brought on by what he calls "patent
trolls," had changed the nature of the
disputes. These companies have no interest
in using the patents, Mr. Von Hippel said,
but instead hope to reap large sums of
money from the lawsuits themselves.
Bilton in his NY Times article, reported
that, "at first it looks as if we're in
the middle of a patent lawsuit Super Bowl
party." Nearly every large mobile phone
player -- with the exception of Microsoft,
Palm and, so far, Google -- has recently
been involved in some sort of patent
litigation regarding mobile
technologies.
"Sampling any one of the many lawsuits now
underway, is a great study," says Troy
Cory. Within the last year, for example,
Cybersitter sued both China, Taiwan, and
Japan based on Berne Convention standards.
Apple was sued by the Taiwanese company
Elan Microelectronics over alleged
infringement of touch-screen patents.
Nokia went on a lawsuit spree, suing
Apple, Samsung, LG and a variety of other
mobile handset companies. Kodak sued
several companies over patents related to
its digital-imaging technology.
Although Service Mark ®©
litigation is not new in todays hitech
world - "the law-suits surrounding the
WiTEL®© wired-wireless
mobile landscape are," says Texas
attorney, Charles Portz.
Legal experts have not explained what the
difference between the effects, elements,
and number code system of a mobile
WiTEL®© Service Mark. For
most, mobile technology is still in its
infancy and these large Telecom companies
are trying to stake their claim to the
future of computing NBS
WiTEL®© phone numbers for
NBS WiTEL®© without telling
them. CLICK

In March 2010 -- Apple said it was suing
smart-phone maker HTC Corp., alleging that
the Taiwan company infringed on 20 Apple
patents associated with the popular
iPhone. (latimes)
The lawsuits were filed with both the U.S.
International Trade Commission and the
U.S. District Court in Delaware and accuse
HTC of stealing the iPhone's user
interface, underlying architecture and
hardware, Apple said.
HTC considers it "too premature to
comment," said spokeswoman Linda
Mills.
"HTC values patent rights and their
enforcement but is also committed to
defending its own technology innovations,"
the company said in a statement. "Until we
have had this opportunity, we are unable
to comment on the validity of the claims
being made against HTC."

113.09iiNetNeutralityRule
/ September 21, 2009 / FCC Ensuring
Net neutrality. Julius Genachowski, the
new FCC chairman is right to want new
rules that would keep service providers
from limiting selected data traveling
through their networks.
The
FCC took a tentative stab at the issue in
2004, when then-Chairman Michael Powell
announced four crucial (4
Freebies) "Internet Freedoms":
the ability of Internet users to access
any legal content, software or services
online, and to connect to the Net through
any compatible device. Genachowski laid
out two more: Broadband providers
should not
discriminate against particular websites
or applications, nor conceal how they
manage data. He also said that the
commission should translate these
principles into formal rules rather than
leaving them in legal limbo.
Lobbyists
for phone and cable TV companies argue
that there's little evidence of ISPs
playing unfairly or violating Powell's
four freedoms. Yet when the FCC moved to
stop Comcast from surreptitiously
interfering with a legal file-sharing
application last year, Comcast sued,
claiming the commission had no power to
enforce the principles. It's paradoxical
that the government should have to
regulate the Internet to preserve its
unregulated essence. But with so little
competition in broadband service, the
major phone and cable companies have the
power and the incentive to stop worthy but
disruptive innovations in the name of
"managing congestion." The FCC should set
clear rules that enable ISPs to keep data
flowing from all legal services and
applications, not just favored ones.

Bratz Dolls Wins Stay - Dec
10 MGA Entertainment Wins
Reprieve on Bratz Dolls Recall
(tviNewsUpdate: Mattel Inc. v. MGA
Entertainment, 09-55673, U.S. Court of
Appeals for the Ninth Circuit (San
Francisco)
Dec. 10, 2009 - Bloomberg
reported that MGA Entertainment Inc. won a
temporary halt to the court-ordered recall
of its Bratz dolls that were found to
infringe the copyrights of rival toymaker
Mattel Inc. and the companies must try to
reach a settlement.
"The parties are ordered to attempt
to settle the dispute through expedited
participation in this court's mediation
program," a three-judge panel of the U.S.
Court of Appeals said in an order
yesterday.
Former U.S. District Judge Stephen
Larson had ordered a recall of MGA's dolls
that was to go into effect next month.
Larson's order followed a jury verdict
last year that a Mattel designer created
the Bratz name and characters and secretly
took the idea to closely held MGA.
"The court's stay is good news for
all Bratz fans and for anyone who cares
about fair competition," MGA Chief
Executive Officer Isaac Larian said in a
statement. "It keeps Bratz on the shelves,
allows MGA Entertainment to continue
meeting consumer demand for new Bratz
products, and prevents Mattel from taking
control of the billion-dollar
international Bratz brand built by MGA
Entertainment while the court makes its
final decision."
Mattel, based in El Segundo,
California, is the world's biggest
toymaker. The introduction of MGA's
multiethnic Bratz dolls in 2001
contributed to a drop in Mattel's Barbie
sales. Larson last year issued an order
banning MGA from making and selling the
infringing dolls. The judge then put his
order on hold this year because he hadn't
ruled on post-trial motions.
"The court hasn't issued a decision
in the appeal," Mattel said in an e-mailed
statement. "It has issued an order staying
the equitable relief, and also ordering
expedited participation in the Circuit's
mediation program. Since the
appeal process is still pending, we cannot
comment further."

102.09iiiFCCRulesInternetNeutrality
(210)
September 21, 2009 / MONDAY FREEBIES -
Google, Yahoo WiTEL vs AT&T, etc.
Internet 'net neutrality' is endorsed by
FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski proposes
formalizing rules and adding mandates that
he says would keep online traffic moving
freely. The proposals would also cover
wireless Internet service.
AT&T,
the nation's largest land-line and
wireless carrier, complained that changing
government rules a year after wireless
companies spent billions of dollars in an
FCC auction to lease what they thought
were unencumbered public airwaves "creates
the impression of a 'bait and switch.'
"
Genachowski
tried to allay some of those concerns. He
said the rules would be enforced case by
case. When networks are congested, for
example, telecommunications companies
might be allowed to limit use by "very
heavy users" so other customers would
still have access to the Internet.
Obama
was a strong supporter of network
neutrality during the presidential
campaign, helping to draw online
support.
The
FCC's four guiding Internet principles
since 2005 assure that Internet users can
access any legal content, application or
service and allow them to attach any
device to the Internet as long as it
doesn't harm the network.

102.09iiiFCCRulesInternetNeutrality
AT&T
and Cable Telcos Rejects project
But
the telecommunications and the cable
companies that control both land-line and
wireless access to the Internet argue that
some customers who download large amounts
of data, such as a continuous flow of
movies, can jam their networks.
Regulations that prevent the companies
from restricting such bandwidth hogs, they
contend, would hamper their networks, harm
innovation and delay upgrades.
The
debate centers on so-called network
neutrality principles that the FCC has
been using for four years to prevent
telecom companies, such as AT&T Inc.
and Time Warner Cable Inc., from
restricting access to websites and other
online services.
Genachowski's
proposal would turn those principles into
permanent rules and expand them to prevent
discrimination against the type of data
flowing through the networks, such as free
Internet phone services or file-sharing
technology for movies.
And
for the first time, the regulations would
apply to wireless carriers. Genachowski
said there was no reason to continue to
exempt wireless services from rules
designed to preserve the Internet's
traditional open access.
Obama
was a strong supporter of network
neutrality during the presidential
campaign, helping to draw online
support.
He
praised the announcement Monday by
Genachowski, a former Internet executive
he appointed this year to head the FCC, as
an important step "to preserve an open
Internet in which all Americans can
participate and benefit."
The
FCC's four guiding Internet principles
since 2005 assure that Internet users can
access any legal content, application or
service and allow them to attach any
device to the Internet as long as it
doesn't harm the
network.

VRA To Release New WebPlay
vContent
å
Universal City, CA -- March 2010 /
Video Record Albums of America, (VRA
TelePlay) announces the release of more
than 100 new CD and DVD volumes of
vContent for WebPlay sales, that include
the license for RadioPlay.
Each CD and DVD features musical stylings
from the Troy Cory Show, including Troy's
vMusic Stage Concerts performed in the
U.S., China, England, Germany - EU --
since 1968. His TV-shows went into
syndication in 1972.
Mark Sovol, spokesman for VRA, stated that
"included in the WebPlay package . . . is
the Show's original "historical" concert
footage, "that helped inch in" the open
the door policy of China in the 80s. The
acceptance of both the NBS Wireless
Telephone®© system, and
music compositions utilizing a U.S.
Service Mark -- is a product of the
Shows.
VRA, founded in 1972, by the NBS
WiTEL®© organization,
predicted the "then new" up and coming
lazar disk phenomenon, (DVDs) -- that
would revolutionize the distribution of
the vContent business. By 1992, NBS
WiTEL®© had three major
digital studios, and VRA TelePlay
distribution points pumping out vContent
for BBC RadioPlay, Cinema Prize,
A&M, and Warner Bros.
recording artists. Linda Ronstadt, Rod
Stewart, Mel Carter, Jackson Browne, Randy
Meisner, Tom Petty, Jeffery Osborne, and
TCS-Ambros Seelos, . . are
just a few of the Vocalist that created
their popular MTVs at Troy's Vine Street
Video Center - Hollywood.
By 2000, VRA predicted the growth of
tviNews online, computer software, the
SmartPhone and seamless applications for
both the Wireless
Telephone®©, and OnLine
streaming vContent business. CLICK

"PriceWaterhouse Coopers"
As for financial growth facts, it was the
"2007 - PriceWaterhouse Coopers Report,"
that ascertained VRA's 1992 predictions.
The financial report was just the thing
needed to justify our Troy Cory Show - VRA
project," said Soval.
The new NBS WiTEL®©
Service-Marked VRA products were not only
designed to fit right into the
100-year-old global standard guidelines,
established by the Berne Convention, and
its biggest supporter, "the then new"
Federal ®© Rules of 1905,
but into today's world of the FCC, and NBS

distribution and technology companies,
need to aggressively seek out new
relationships to accommodate the shift
toward convergence, " said Jim
O'Shaugnessy, global chairman of PWC's
entertainment media practice. "Companies
will need to test new business models to
address increased fragmentation and
intellectual property in a digital
era."
PWC's Global entertainment and Media
Outlook 2007-11 predicts that Brazil,
Russia, India and China will account for
24% of global growth in that period.
The U.S. will remain the single largest
market for entertainment and media, but is
growing at the slowest rate -- just 53% a
year to reach $754 billion in 2010.
Europe, the Mideast and Africa, the
second-largest market, will grow only
slightly more quickly, at 5.5% a year to
reach $617 billion. the fastest-growing
region will be Asia Pacific, ramping up at
9.6% a year to reach $470 billion by
2011.
Filmed entertainment was predicted to rise
globally by 4.9% a year to $103 billion.
TV network revenue will grow by 5.8% a
year to $228 billion, but TV distribution
will power ahead by 9.3% a year to $251
billion.
Troy Cory- Stubblefield, CEO of the NBS
Wireless Telephone®©
Organization, (WiTEL®©)
said, "Not only did our 1992, and 2000 NBS
WiTEL®© growth predictions
become a financial reality, but our NBS

NBS." "Our efforts helped create the new
"land-line" rulings from the FCC in favor
of the so-called wireless mobile
industry." ( iPhones, Cellphones,

/ EDITOR & PUBLISHER MAGAZINE, The one
hundred year old publishing company is
back in business again.
EDITOR & PUBLISHER MAGAZINE, founded
in 1901 and merged in 1907 with The
Journalist, a weekly founded in 1884 is
back in business again, "seamlessly" . . .
says Josie Cory, publisher of tviNews.
Long the bible of the U.S. newspaper
industry, the publication has been
revived" under a new publisher just two
weeks after Nielsen Co. shut the venerable
trade magazine down.
Duncan McIntosh Co., an Irvine, CA-based
company that ironically publishes FishRap
News, and titles such as Boating World,
has acquired it for undisclosed terms.
Nielsen originally pulled the plug after
selling much of its trade magazine
division, including titles such as Adweek,
Billboard and The Hollywood Reporter, to
e5 Global Media.
We're going to continue to be the main
information source, the main idea source
for the newspaper industry," said Mark
Fitzgerald, who was named Editor &
Publisher 's editor Thursday. "We're all
very excited around here about the
news."
Editor & Publisher, a magazine which
has chronicled the US newspaper industry
for over a century, was sold, exactly two
weeks after being shut down by its owner,
the Nielsen Co.
Duncan McIntosh, whose company also
produces the Newport Boat Show, stated
that; "such a critical information source
for a newspaper industry so desperately in
need of help should not go away."
"I've been a reader of Editor &
Publisher over the course of 30 years and
know its incredible value to readers and
advertisers," McIntosh said.
During the last several years, Newspapers
have been transforming beyond the printed
page to all forms of digital media.
Imagine loosing the one place where the
industry could have a conversation with
itself and exchange ideas and best
practices for navigating . . .
(networking, hypertext) navigating -
Finding your way around. Often used of the
Internet, particularly the World-Wide Web.
Known as the "bible" of the news industry,
Editor & Publisher has been closely
following the struggles of a US newspaper
industry grappling with declining
circulation, falling print advertising
revenue and the migration of readers to
free news online.
Editor & Publisher 's new owner said
there would be a February print issue of
the magazine. E&P's website
immediately resumed operations upon the
completion of the sale.
Nielsen announced last month it was
closing Editor & Publisher and Kirkus
Reviews, a book review publication which
was founded in 1933, and selling several
other brands including the Hollywood
Reporter and Billboard.

/ U.S. wants to help the big FIVE
WiTEL®© Telcos expand their
Internet VoIP WiFi and WiMAX broadband
service, but they refuse
to apply for
$4.7-Billion offer.
Troy Cory,
CEO of NBS WiTEL®© said,
"If you want to get the WiMax
wired-wirless broadband out into your
neighborhood, you have to do it with the
organization who brought you to the dance
in the first place. In this case, the man
that organized the 1902 celebration was,
Nathan B. Stubblefield, the inventor,
creator, and founder of the Wireless
Telephone that registered the NBS
WiTEL®© service marks in
1907.
The founder
of the NBS Wireless
Telephone®© Organization,"
said Cory, has, and still maintains the
the Service marks. "This is not a basket
weaving contest mixing copper wire within
RF spectrums. This is really complex and
intensive technical stuff that takes a
fair amount of area codes and numbering
sophistication and scale to be able to do
right and to continue to upgrade."
THE PROS AND CONS. August

"The only names retained by the
Chinese 'Forebidden City' project are the
the words "City" and Mandarin Oriental,"
says Troy Cory, of the Jockey Club
Alliance Group,
Thanks to MGM, Dubai
World, the massive CityCenter walk,
formerly knows as the the 1993 China Expo
Las Vegas Jockey Club Forbidden City
Boardwalk Project, opend its door on
December 17, 1009.
TVI's Pete Allman, and the associated
press reported Las Vegas "visitors by the
thousands" streamed into the newest
casino-resort on the Las Vegas Strip on
Thursday.
Fireworks and fanfare greeted the official
opening of the Aria Resort & Casino,
the 4,000-room, 61-story centerpiece of
the $8.5-billion CityCenter complex.
Crowds began swarming through the doors
around midnight.
MGM Mirage Chief Executive Jim Murren said
that while many experts thought CityCenter
would never open, its employees drove the
company to make sure it carried through on
its grand design.
"It was because of [the employees]
that we got here, and the promise of
12,000 people that wanted to work hard to
provide for their families," Murren said.
"It was that promise -- that we didn't
want to let them down -- that got us
here."
Aria's rooms, along with those at
CityCenter's Mandarin Oriental and Vdara
hotels, increase room capacity on the Las
Vegas strip 8.5%, UBS Investment Research
analyst Robin Farley said.
MGM Mirage owns the most casinos on the
Strip, but Murren believes CityCenter will
help, not hurt, the company's other
resorts.
Competitors worry that CityCenter will
force them to lower rates to keep rooms
filled. But Murren and other MGM Mirage
officials predict CityCenter will help Las
Vegas as a whole, spurring visitation and
providing a catalyst for long-term
prosperity.
"This is really 21st century Las Vegas,"
said architect Cesar Pelli, whose team
designed Aria. "This is really setting up
very high standards that will be very hard
to match -- but I hope they will try."
December
11, 2009 / The LA TIMES REPORT ON THE --
massive CityCenter complex on the Las
Vegas Strip, set to open officially next
week, is a blast from the very recent
past.
Costing
over $8.5 billion, designers including
Daniel Libeskind, Norman Foster, David
Rockwell, Cesar Pelli and Rafael Vinoly
and a staggering 18 million square feet of
space inside six towers and a Strip-front
shopping mall, the development is a
fitting coda to the decade of celebrity
architecture and overextended real-estate
mania from which we've just emerged.
CityCenter's
true theme is leverage. Ranking as the
largest private development in American
history, big enough to fill the tallest
building in Los Angeles, the U.S. Bank
Tower, roughly a dozen times over, the
complex is a palace -- a series of
connected palaces, actually -- for the age
of towering debt and easy credit. They
should have put Alan Greenspan's face on
the poker chips.

"Checking
out the goods, products, and services
related attached to my grandfather's
WiTEL®© inventions at the
2008 annual CES show in Las Vegas, has
been my pet project since 1992," says
author, performer, Troy Cory, and founder
of the Troy Cory
Show.
The
Word EPONYMOUS.
When quized as to why
men names a good, products or services
after themselves, Troy cxplains the word,
"eponymous." THE GREEK WORD eponymos, from
epi- "upon" + onyma. "The word is used
when a personal name is giving to personal
services," -- (like Charlie Rose Show, The
Troy Cory Show, and the initials NBS, the
acronyms for the elements and effects of
Nathan B. Stubblefield's
WiTEL®©).
The
PowerMat and Row22 are eponymos. They are
just two items named after existing
products. I found them most interesting,
becausehe PowerMat was a take off on
Stubblefields, "All Green Earth Battery"
(a non - fossil fuel technology) patented
in 1898.
The
only thing missing was the iron rod RF
aerial, that made the WiFi induction unit
part his "Telephone-del-Green" system. The
®© metal coil and mesh EMW
conglomeration, not only emitted RF
signals to help power his batteries, but
its firewire effect, (FiWi) caused the EMF
to modulated the amplitude of the signal
to send voice through space, via his WiTEL
WiFi WiMAX 187 network.

Microsoft has taken two parallel routes in
its operating systems. One route has been
for the home user and the other has been
for the professional IT user.
The dual routes have generally led to home
versions having greater multimedia support
and less functionality in networking and
security, and professional versions having
inferior multimedia support and better
networking and security.[citation
needed]
The first version of Microsoft Windows,
version 1.0, released in November 1985,
lacked a degree of functionality and
achieved little popularity, and was to
compete with Apple's own operating
system.[citation needed] Windows
1.0 is not a complete operating system;
rather, it extends MS-DOS.
Microsoft Windows version 2.0 was released
in November, 1987 and was slightly more
popular than its predecessor. Windows 2.03
(release date January 1988) had changed
the OS from tiled windows to overlapping
windows. The result of this change led to
Apple Computer filing a suit against
Microsoft alleging infringement on Apple's
copyrights.

Legends
of Poker - More Then Vegas / By
Pete
Allman
The game of poker is truly a game of skill
and in todays society, thanks to
television coverage and all those
celebrities indulging in the game, it is a
household word.
Legend has it, that poker dates back
to 900 BC in China when Mu-Tsung was said
to have played a form of '' domino
cards''. It has also been said
that poker evovled in the 1400's as
a European game. However, Poker
in America started in Mississippi on
riverboats and was a compliment
to three card Monti , which was dealt
with a 20 card deck that only
contained aces, kings, queens, jacks
and10's.
The big step in the evolution of poker was
in Neveda where it was declared
illegal in 1910.
In California the Attorney
General declared it a game of skill,
thus anti-gambling laws couldn't stop the
masses from playing poker. Then,
in 1931 poker was declared
a legal game in Nevada.
Today, one of the most respected
and successful places to play poker
is The Bicycle Casino, located in
Bell Gardens-10 minutes south of
downtown Los Angeles. In speaking
with Kelley O' Hara, Director
of Marketing for Bicycle Casino and
Stanley Sludikoff of Poker Player
Newspaper, I learned why Bicycle
Casino is so popular
throughout Southern
California and holds
more tournaments than any casino in
the United States.
First it starts with the
gentlemen who understands what the
public wants in poker. Haig
Kelegian, the managing partner of Bicycle
Casino had the vision to first unite the
card casinos in Southern California.
Mr Kelegian formed Golden State
Gaming Associates , now California
Gamming Association to cohesively work
together in promoting card games,
especially poker and Pai-Chi.
But as with any business it takes team
effort, that's where The Bicycle
Casino outshines other
properties. Their excutive chef,
Mario Conte for one, has been with the
organization forover 20 years. Chef Mario
uses family resipies and has a large
staff, some of which have been with
him for nearly 20 years. His
philosaphy is: '' only use the best
products and cook from the
heart''. That philosaphy
radiates with the entire staff at Bicycle
Casino.
What's not to like with a chef from Italy,
a diversed staff, and an all new
State-of-the-Art Grand Poker
Ballroom. It's an impressive and
exciting place to visit. A place
where younever know who's playing poker or
for that matter Pai Chi.
I came across some actors I
interviewed over the years, and one of
them was Glen Thurman. Glen is
not only a fine actor but he is an
excelent poker palyer, who enjoys to
play at The Bicycle Casino. This
event celebrated the 25th anniversary
of The Bicycle Casino and
the opening of their Grand Poker
Ballroom.
