Coruscant

Coruscant /ˈkɒrəsɑːnt/ is a planet in the fictional Star Wars universe. It first appeared onscreen in the 1997 Special Edition of Return of the Jedi, but was first mentioned in Timothy Zahn's 1991 novel Heir to the Empire. A city occupying an entire planet, it was renamed Imperial Center during the reign of the Galactic Empire (as depicted in the original films) and Yuuzhan'tar during the Yuuzhan Vong invasion (as depicted in the New Jedi Order novel series). The adjective form of the planet name is Coruscanti.

Coruscant is, at various times, the capital of the Old Republic, the Galactic Empire, the New Republic, the Yuuzhan Vong Empire and the Galactic Alliance. Not only is Coruscant central to all these governing bodies, it is the navigational center of the galaxy, given that its hyperspace coordinates are (0,0,0). Due to its location and large population, roughly 1 trillion sentients, the galaxy's main trade routes — Perlemian Trade Route, Hydian Way, Corellian Run and Corellian Trade Spine — go through Coruscant, making it the richest and most influential world in the Star Wars galaxy. Coruscant is the sixth planet out of 11 planets in the Coruscant solar system, and has four moons; Centax-1, Centax-2, Centax-3, and Hesperidium.

The Linq

The LINQ Hotel & Casino is a casino, 2,640-room hotel, and shopping promenade on the Las Vegas Strip in Paradise, Nevada, owned and operated by Caesars Entertainment. The casino is 118,000 square feet (11,000 m²) with 830 slot machines, 55 table games, 8 poker tables, and a race and sports book.

History

The property began as the $2 million, 180-room Flamingo Capri motel, owned by George E. Goldberg and Bill Capri. The motel was built directly north of the Flamingo Hotel and Casino, where Capri was an employee. Construction began in May 1959. The original Flamingo agreed to provide hotel services to guests at the Capri.

Ralph Engelstad purchased the motel in 1971. He added a casino and renamed the property as the Flamingo Capri Motel and Casino in 1972. In 1973, four motel buildings from the Flamingo Capri were relocated and converted to become part of Engelstad's other property, the Kona Kai motel. Engelstad's construction company added a three-story wing at the east end of the motel, as well as a northern addition, both of which were opened by 1974.

Imperial (band)

Imperial is an American metalcore band from Orlando, Florida. Their music is a mixture of modern metal, hardcore, and Black Metal.

History

The Red Letter (2003-2005)

Imperial was formed by Dale Dupree, Josh Lightfoot, and Brandon Pangle as "The Red Letter", in Orlando, Florida in 2003. They toured with other bands throughout the United States, ending with a performance at Cornerstone Fest in Illinois.

The tour resulted in a recording contract with Pluto Records. Shortly afterward, the band changed their name from "The Red Letter", due to other bands having similar names, to the name Imperial.

This Grave Is My Poem (2004-2006)

After signing with Pluto Records, the band released their first album, This Grave Is My Poem, with the help of Jeremy Staska at Studio 13 and Allan Douches at West West side for mastering duties.

After this release, they spent the next year touring national with other bands, as well as headlining their own tour. After the tours had completed, they began working on their new album.

Imperial (beer)

Imperial (Cerveza Imperial) is a Costa Rican brand of beer, manufactured by the Florida Ice & Farm Company (FIFCO). Imperial, a lager, was first produced by the Ortega brewery in 1924 and is the most popular beer in Costa Rica. It has spun off Imperial Light and Imperial Silver. FIFCO produces other beers including its Pilsen, Bavaria, and Rock Ice brands.

In addition to being a brand of beer, the term "Imperial" when referring to craft beer is commonly used to describe a brewery's unique take on one of their regular styles. These beers often accentuate the style's characteristics and are labeled as Imperial IPA, Imperial Porter, or Imperial Pilsner, for example.

Logo

Its logo, which is a well known icon in Costa Rica, was designed by Enrique Hangen, who, at the time, was the owner of the advertising agency "Casa Gráfica". Imperial is also known by Costa Ricans as "Aguila" or "Aguilita", which translates into English as "eagle" or "Little Eagle" in reference to its logo, which is the Imperial Eagle used in European heraldry.

The business employs over 500 staff and the head office is in the Melbourne suburb of Balwyn, connected to the Balwyn Theatre (also called Balwyn Cinema), which is the oldest theatre/cinema operated by Palace, having opened in 1930. The cinemas generally specialise in a mixture of foreign language, mainstream and art house films.

Palace Cinemas

The Palace Cinema chain operates in most states, except Tasmania and the Northern Territory. They exhibit films of either a mainstream, classic or an arthouse type, but the cinemas are usually focused on one film type or the other. The mainstream cinemas usually have several auditoriums that are fitted for projecting RealD 3D films, but unlike other major chains this is only on one or two dedicated screens. Initially Palace used Dolby 3D for several years before converting to the cheaper 3D format.
