MOVIE REVIEW: "Nomad: The Warrior"
Thundering hoofbeats. Snow-capped mountains towering over lone prairies. Even the cavalry riding to the rescue in the nick of time.

THEATER CHAT: 'Will in the World' author to speak at UNLV
Shakespeare didn't leave a lot of clues about his private life. That's why Stephen Greenblatt's New York Times best-seller "Will in the World" is such a fun read. The University of Nevada, Las Vegas is bringing the author to town for a public chat at 7 p.m. Monday in Doc Randall Hall.

TICKETS: Jet to kick off Hard Rock Hotel pool concert series April 27
The new <b>"Friday Night Live" </b>concert series at the pool at the Hard Rock Hotel debuts April 27 with Australian rockers <b>Jet</b>. Tickets are $22 and go on sale at noon Saturday at the Hard Rock box office, 4455 Paradise Road, and Ticketmaster outlets. The following shows also go on sale at that time:

GAME DORK: What a Gas
This panda is flatulent. Every step he takes. Every move he makes. This panda needs Beano. Why do this panda's rumblings remind me of Tim Allen's grunts more than magic-store whoopee cushions?

RESTAURANT REVIEW: Le Provençal
Considering that restaurants featuring the cuisine of the Provence region of France are so rare in Las Vegas as to be nearly nonexistent -- as in, one, and only one -- why would a Strip resort include one among its offerings?

MOVIE REVIEW: "Perfect Stranger"
More smelly red herrings than a wholesale fish market!

OUT & ABOUT
<b>Beauty Bar hosts AFAN benefit</b>

Teaching the Blues
Think of jazz, rhythm & blues, rock, reggae and hip-hop.

Musical Memories
Director Doug Baker wasn't having much luck finding an actor to play Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel for the Community College of Southern Nevada's big musical production "It's Only Business."

EYE OPENERS

Blues Rock Everyman
I'll give you a good story," George Thorogood begins, winding himself up like an alarm clock. "Do you like good stories?"
