    Somehow you are getting some weird characters into the post.  Are you pasting something in?

    I will second the Golden Nugget, the only problem with it is that its almost as pricey as staying on the Strip.  If economy is important check out the 4 queens, binions, the Fremont, the Main Street or The D.

    I highly recomend renting a car.  You can generally find one at Fox Rent A Car for about12-15 dollars a day.  It's way cheaper than cabbing anywhere, parking is free on the strip, and the strip is big.  Plus if you want to get off strip and try some of the nationally reknowned restaraunts like Hash House A-Go-Go its essential.

    As a previously frequent Las Vegas visitor and now resident let me suggest Fremont Street.  The only drawback is you will need to bus, carpool or taxi to the Strip, however the positives are many.

    Fremont Street is classic Vegas.  Starting with the inexpensive hotel rooms that can generally be had for under $30/night at fun casinos like the 4 Queens not to mention the inexpensive food.  This is where the name Glitter Gulch was born to refer to all the flashing lights that Vegas is known for.  Fremont Street is utterly walkable and there are three bandshells that have live bands playing most nights.  There are street shows and lots of souvenir vendors.  A Vegas keychain will probably cost you $20 on the strip but on Fremont street you can get 10 keychains for $10.  At night you will be able to enjoy the Fremont street experience which is a three block long video screen that plays custom designed music videos every hour on the hour.  Just my two cents.

    Paypal accepts credit cards, there should be a drop down option for your credit card payment.

    David Owen at Shine Alternative Fitness is a great dancer, flexibility expert and amazing friend of Veena and myself. I would recommend scheduling time with him if you do nothing else.

    The grip on the Veena Pole is often described as softer.  It uses a different two stage process that results in a pole that creates amazing control.

    All three of the big companies produce great poles with different value propositions.  If you choose a Lil Mynx, X-Pole or Platinum stages safety and quality shouldn't be an issue.

    We chose to work with Lil Mynx for two reasons:

    1) Most people don't have dedicated pole space, so setup and take down need to be as quick as possible so you can get to your workout.  The StudioVeena Pole can be up or down in mere seconds.

    2) With Lil Mynx we had the ability to select a color and overall finish that delivers a look and grip experience that you can't get anywhere else.

    Google's terms of service require that you use a real name.  They have very strict requirements in this area and will not hesitate to suspend your account.  However they have better privacy controls than Facebook and as such you can create a circle called pole friends and anything you share there can be made invisible to the rest of your followers.

    If you are not seeing images in the a tags you generally have a plugin in ff that doesn’t comply with w3c standards and is probably truncating CSS GET requests.

    Small businesses often times make the mistake of competing over things that are essentially public domain.  Its inevitable that once someone has figured out a better way to teach move X its only a matter of time before everyone is teaching it that way.  Small business has a tendency to draw its employees into these petty squabbles over who stole whose curriculum or creating animosity that is not good for the community as a whole.

    In the end a business has to build its value proposition on other things, that have a higher barrier to entry.  Maybe they offer convenience another studio doesn't have, maybe they have a juice bar or are close to a child care facility, perhaps they offer more community building activities.

    A good business doesn't need animosity to create value, and competitive animosity should never trickle over into its employees.  Once that starts its the beginning of the end for all involved.  Consider it a favor to your employer to foster good will between them and their competitor by maintaining a good relationship with your friend.
