JImmY FosteR ebruary finds 2012 off and running out of the gate, with momentum building towards the fruition of the goals and aspirations of the entire Las Vegas Valley. It also finds us smack dab in the middle of an awards season, with The Golden Globes behind us in January and the Oscars approaching in March. With so many worthwhile endeavors to choose from, whether social, commercial or philanthropic, Diamond Cake wishes to highlight the Fvery best in our purview by ‘awarding’ a spotlight on every page of this month’s issue. First and foremost on our minds is the fantastic work done by The Salvation Army here in the valley. Their commitment to Las Vegas residents is a beacon of hope and truly “takes the cake” (and what a choice tag line should there eventually be Diamond Cake Awards, along the lines of “...and the Oscar goes to...”). February is a time for romance and rekindling our various passions. There is no better place to celebrate Valentine's Day than Las Vegas; whether it be Paris, Venice, or good old downtown, our community has a setting for every fantasy to become reality. Diamond Cake’s advertising partners share a passion for what they do and invite you to fall in love with their services as well. Together, we can fuel a passion that drives our city to amazing heights and success in 2012.

Maybe the welcome page on his Misjif IMotors website (www.misjif.com) describes his product best: “The finest automobiles in the world represented in ROSS C. GOODMAN, ESQ. a rare one-of-a-kind artistic style of fine automotive art.” Goodman Law Group, P.C. And art it is. Pro’s lovingly assembled works aren’t miniatures, or even scale replicas. They’re something like interpretive distillations, each high-quality piece gunning for the design essence of the high-powered machine that inspired it. “A literal translation with a little bit of artistic translation in there,” he says, describing the end result. The “literal” part is mostly in the materials and methods used: 22-gauge metal, authentically reproduced cloth and real exotic wood interiors, high-grade paints, and geometrically accurate curves done by hand (“old-style coach building on a modern day design,” he explains).
