Short North Posse gang used casino to launder drug money, indictment says | The Columbus Dispatch

Short North Posse gang used casino to launder drug money, indictment says | The Columbus Dispatch submitted by coolcrosby to Columbus [link] [comments]

It Has Been Over A Decade Since Ohio Voters Legalized 4 Casinos In The State: Has The Bet Paid Off For Residents?

In 2009 Ohio voters passed a constitutional amendment allowing for 4 casinos in Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati, & Toledo. Construction began on the Cincinnati casino in 2011 with Horseshoe Cincinnati opening in 2013. Over the years the Cincinnati Casino has changed hands and branding multiple times and has failed to build the hotel that was expected to be constructed a few years after opening. Overall from what I've heard the Cincinnati casino doesn't seem to be doing that well and a lot of people complain about them being one of stingiest around with payouts. A few days ago it was reported that Dan Gilbert the one time owner of the Cincinnati & Cleveland casinos and the "money" behind the push to legalize gambling back in 2009 is selling his Cleveland property. I guess Ohio casinos were not the windfall they were thought to be.
So here is a question: Has the Cincinnati casino lived up to voter's expectations as a generator of tax revenue and as a boon to tourism in the Cincinnati area? Or has Ohio's lucky numbers proven to be unfruitful as other states like Kentucky & Indiana attempt to elevate their game?

Black Nobility and the Vatican.

The black nobility is the base of the global crime syndicate that controls this planet. The black nobility or black aristocracy are the aristocratic families that sided with the papacy under Pope Pius IX after the army of the Kingdom of Italy led by the Savoy family entered Rome on September 20, 1870, overthrew the pope . and the Papal States, and took over the Quirinal Palace, and the nobles later ennobled by the Pope prior to the Lateran Treaty of 1929. Any family that produced popes for the Vatican is royalty. Most of the black nobility are Vatican royalty. The black nobility consider themselves sovereign princes. These families earned the title of "black" nobility for their relentless unscrupulousness. They used murder, rape, kidnapping, robbery and all kinds of deception on a large scale, without resisting the achievement of their objectives. The black nobility were the families that financed and created the holy corporation of the Vatican with the aim of imposing world slavery as a necessary institution, with the sole belief that some are born to rule and others to be ruled. The idea that certain families were born to rule as an arbitrary elite, while the vast majority of a given population is condemned to oppression, servitude, or slavery became the theological position of this elite. The "New World Order" is an attempt to take control of society by these fascist families with the purpose of the total slavery of humanity.
The Vatican is an imperial nation and is the largest empire in this world. The Vatican City, or the Holy Vatican Corporation, officially the Vatican City State, is a nation that operates as the largest intelligence network in the world. The Holy See is the "All-Seeing Eye" in society and a corporate entity connected to many other corporations and governments through papal and royal statutes. Archbishops and high-level bishops are the overseers of society within their districts and oversee politics, police, business, and organized crime. The same year that the professor of ecclesiastical law and practical philosophy at the University of Ingolstadt, Adam Weishaupt, created the Order of the Illuminati, was the same year that they created the United States as a corporation to run it as their private army and lead I dig the agenda of a "New World Order" for the elites, mainly, thanks to the infiltrated Freemasonry and directed by the Jesuits.
The New World Order is a conspiracy of lineage at the top. They are ancient and evil bloodlines that build and destroy empires for control through an order out of chaos. Royal and noble houses are corporate entities and claim to rule and own land, resources, and people. Landlords have always been the dominant owners of gold and precious metals. They empower and finance bankers and entrepreneurs to work for them through their corporate homes. They authorize and issue the creation of laws, agencies, the military, companies, and universities. They create and run religions and secret societies. They also finance and organize organized crime syndicates as if they were commercial enterprises. Some of the major royal bloodlines include Savoy, Bourbon, Medici, Glücksburg, Wittelsbach, Nassau-Weilberg, Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, Romanov, Grimaldi, Orleans, Braganza, Habsburg, Hannover, Windsor, Saud, Thani, Khalifa, Alouwite , Zogu, Hohenzollern, Orange-Nassau, Bonaparte and Bernadotte. Many royal bloodlines still rule their nations as heads of state such as the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, Monaco, Spain, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Morocco, Sweden, Norway, and Luxembourg. The Vatican City State is also a kingdom with the Pope of Rome as its monarch. The Black Nobility are the ancient bloodlines of the Papal States and they own the Holy See and the Vatican. They produced the first popes of Rome and held leadership positions in the Vatican from its inception. The Colonna and Torlonia still hold the hereditary positions of the Assistant Princes to the Papal Throne. The black nobility consider themselves sovereign princes. The Vatican is used as a central point of control and the Holy See is one of the oldest and most criminal corporate entities in existence. The Spanish Catholic Church is immensely rich, it has not suffered the crisis and also enjoys a true tax haven, being free to pay taxes, such as the IBI, works, companies, etc. The vast majority of the assets in their possession and on their accounts are completely opaque. This situation is illegitimate, unfair and presumably illegal, and this occurs with the complicity and consent of the public powers.
The Erlach and Brandi families are Swiss tax advisers who enable corruption, bribery, criminal financing, and money laundering. The Swiss Guard is the one that protects the Vatican City State. The Swiss cantons have been in contract with the Vatican for centuries and Switzerland is basically a papal state with the noble Roman saints claiming partial ownership. The German house of Baden-Zahringen founded Bern, in Switzerland. The House of Savoy ruled the regions of Switzerland for hundreds of years. Some of the most important bloodlines of the Black Nobility are: Massimo, Colonna, Pallavicini, Odescalchi, Ruspoli, Orsini, Aldobrandini, Sforza-Cesarini, Boncompagni-Ludovisi, Chigi-Albani-Della Rovere, Doria-Pamphilj, Rospigliosi, Giustiniani , Torlonia, Corsini, Borghese, Del Drago, Lucchesi-Palli, and Gaetani. The Pecci and Pacelli families are more recent bloodlines of the Black Nobility. The black nobility share ownership over the Holy See, which is a corporate entity based in the Vatican City State that was established as a nation in 1929 under Benito Mussolini, who was put in power by the House of Savoy. The Mussolini and Franco families became nobles after their fascist regimes. The Black Nobility also owns the Knights of Malta, the Jesuits, and the Cosa Nostra. The Black Nobility established branches in southern Italy and married Sicilian-Campanian nobles such as the Lanza di Scalea, Adragna, Sanseverino, Tomasi di Lampedusa, Paterno, Cattaneo, Serena di Lapigio and Rocco di Torrepadula families. Many Italian crime families were Sicilian nobles like the Bonanno and Bellomo families. Both the mafia bosses and the Italian and Spanish nobles call themselves Dons, which is the equivalent of Boos (boss) of crime. The Savoy, Savoy-Aosta, Medici, Borbon-Dos Sicilias, and Borbon-Parma families are members of Italian royalty and are married to various European royal bloodlines and Black Nobility. Most of the monarchs are members of the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. Prince Carlo Massimo has been overseeing the Sovereign Military Order of Malta as President of the Italian Association of SMOM. The Knights of Malta have an undercover operation at the Jesuit School of Foreign Service in Georgetown, run by Joel Hellman. The Jesuits and the Knights of Malta basically run the Defense Department alongside British Crown agents and high-level Freemasons. Prince Carlo de Borbón-Dos Sicilias is a high commander of the Society of Jesus through his Sacred Constantinian Military Order of Saint George. The Jesuits were authorized by Pope Paul III of the Farnese family. The Bourbon-Dos Sicilias and Borbon-Parma families are the continuation of the Farnese family, the name Farnesivs is engraved in the Jesuit headquarters called the Church of Gesu in Rome. The Farnese family lived in a pentagonal fortress called Farnese Villa Caprarola, which is the basis for the design of the American Pentagon. Jesuits are involved in education, politics, banking, science, law, and especially military intelligence. The Italian Bourbons have established residences all over the world, including Florida. Jesuits need to be investigated and banned, they have rightly been expelled from almost every country in the world, but they always end up coming back. In Spain three times, his last return was at the hands of General Franco.
The Holy See is a corporate body that issues laws and bills, such as the Golden Bull, which claims ownership of the Kingdom of England and identifies the emperor as the sovereign of the only legitimate universal empire, directly chosen by God. The Pope claims temporal power or ownership over the Earth and also claims Papal Supremacy or Papal Rule and Papal Infallibility. Infallibility means incapable of being wrong. The Roman Curia or Papal Court is the highest organized council in society and is directly supervised by the two “Assistants of the Prince to the Pontifical Throne”, these two positions are held by the princes of the Colonna and Torlonia families. They work with a higher level princely council of the Italian nobility that works with another council made up of the Roman nobility. The Italian and Austrian nobility are married to each other and work closely together leading the Sovereign Military Order of Malta, which is a sovereign entity equivalent to that of a sovereign nation. The Italian Nobility, La Cosa Nostra and the German and Austrian Nobles, run the Jewish Mafia. Royalty and nobles have massive amounts of wealth in private bank accounts in Switzerland. They use the Nazi-founded Bank for International Settlements to steal wealth from central banks through fraudulent tax contracts and then launder and hide the wealth in private bank accounts in Switzerland. The main Italian lineages still active include the Massimo, Colonna, Pallavicini, Torlonia, Aldobrandini, Ruspoli, Orsini, Gaetani-D'Aragona, Borbón-Parma, Odescalchi, Borghese, Adragni, Chigi, Medici, Borromeo, Doria-Pamphilj, Sacchetti, Savoy, Grimaldi and Bourbon. These bloodlines oversee the various specters of society. Outside of this power structure is the Committee of 300 with an inner circle made up of the leading monarchs and princes of Europe and the former Holy Roman Empire with members from Windsor, Spencer, Cecil, Percy, Hohenlohe-Langenburg, Habsburg, Bonaparte, Orleans, Bernadotte, Lagergren, Glucksburg, Hannover, Furstenberg, Austria-East, Hohenberg, Hesse, Nassau-Weilberg, Habsburg-Lorraine, Saxe Coburg and Gotha, Saxony-Weimar-Eisenach, Saxony-Meiningen, Braganza, Orange-Nassau, Hohenzollern , Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, Liechtenstein, Rothschild, FitzJames, Lobkowicz, Ligne, Merode, Romanov, Thurn and Taxis, Schwarzenberg, Orsini-Rosenberg, Windisch-Graetz, Esterhazy and other families. Many members who do not have noble status on the Committee of 300 are representatives of the royal families.
These families are all enemies of humanity and have conspired to enslave the world for centuries. They authorize and create corporations and billionaires, run religions, states, secret societies, the mafia, and organized crime syndicates. Royal families in Europe are mainly divided into two factions, and this dates back to the Guelph merchants and Ghibelline landowners. All other groups like Bilderberg, CFR, and the Trilateral Commission are lower-level organizations. All roads lead to Rome, which is the basis of its control system. The European Constitutional Monarchies are branches of the corporate empire of Rome. Constitutional Monarchies are ruled by blood-appointed heads of state and serve Rome through the Sovereign Military Order of Malta. The Pope claims temporary or physical ownership of the Earth. The Pope claims to be infallible of error. The Pope claims ownership over all souls through the papal doctrine of "Papal Supremacy." The Pope is a leader for the Black Nobility of Italy.
The Jesuits are a military priesthood officially established by Pope Paul III A.K. to Alessandro Farnese of the Farnese family. The Jesuits were officially established under the Papal Bull called Regimini Militantis Ecclesiae, which means Military Regiment of the Church as the continuation of the Templars. The Black Nobles are the true owners and controllers of the Vatican and maintain their control throughout the centuries by installing their relatives as high-level popes and bishops. At present the Torlonia and Colonna families who have the hereditary positions of Prince Assistants to the Papal Throne are those who supervise the pope. In turn Pope Francis supervises all members of the Catholic Church and also supervises the various secret societies that are connected with the Church.
The Jesuits are also a Masonic order and were the continuation of the Templar orders when they were banned. The Roman Catholic Church mocks Christians by performing rituals where they pretend to drink blood and eat human flesh known as the Eucharist, also called Holy Sacrifice. The New Testament did not exist until about 1600 and the Old Testament is even more recent than the new. It was the Vatican and European monarchs who created both the New and the Old Testaments. The last official version of the bible was published in 1777.
The bishops and priests operate as supervisors and the Jesuits function as spies trained in deception and are infiltrated everywhere. The Pope claims temporal power or ownership over the Earth and also claims Papal Supremacy or Papal Rule and Papal Infallibility. Infallibility means incapable of being wrong. Archbishops are the overseers of society within their districts and oversee politics, police, business, and organized crime. The Latin phrase Novus Ordo Seclorum means New Order of Ages (or Ages), or also "New World Order", and is on the US dollar bill and Great Seal of the United States.
The Vatican uses Latin as an official language and for documents. America is named after the Italian Americo Vespucci who worked for the Medici family of Florence and Rome. Vespucci created the term New World for America. The Bank of America was originally called the Bank of Italy and was founded by Amadeo Giannini, who was financed by Italians. Nations were formed as companies or corporations to exploit their citizens as merchandise. Corporations are fraudulent constructions because they are considered a person with rights under the law, and because the owners and controllers of the corporations can disregard responsibility for crimes committed by the corporation. That is fraudulent. Corporations are not people and therefore cannot have rights. Corporations are also monopolies that use subsidiaries to hide their dominance over industry. Private companies cannot compete fairly with corporations. Citizens are also classified as legal persons (companies), robbing them of all their human rights. Corporations shouldn't exist.
Royalty and nobles issue charters establishing representative covert property agents controlled by corporate households or crowns of royalty and nobles. They claim to own foreign governments in this way. Royalty and nobles claim to own the United States as a continuation of the Virginia Company. Roman royalty such as the Hanover, Hesses, Wurttembergs, Hohenzollerns, Glucksburgs, Orange-Nassaus and Saxe-Coburg and Gothas claim a share of ownership over the British Crown. This is why the British royal family has so much German ancestry. The United States is defined as a federal corporation under US code 3002. Section 15. Most of the founding fathers were Freemasons and worked for the British Crown and German royalty. American political families, such as the Bushs, Clintons, Romneys, and Kennedys, take their names from European noble families that still exist. The Von Dem Bussche family are German nobles and relatives of the Bush family. The Clintons and Romneys are also British nobles. The Kennedys are Scottish-Irish nobles and an American political family involved with the Democratic Party. Mars, Walton, Rockefeller, Guggenheim, Getty, Hearst, Sackler, Lauder, Sachs, Busche, Johnson, McMahon, Forbes, and Cox are some of the billionaire American families that work with royalty and nobles in Europe. The Mars family is worth about 70 billion and works with the Windsor, Savoy, Thurn and Taxis families. The Waltons are worth around 130 billion and work with German nobles like the Württemberg, Baden, Hohenzollern and Isenberg families. The various Johnson families in the United States are collectively worth tens of billions and serve as agents for the House of Hannover. They own Johnson and Johnson and Fidelity Investments. The Hanovers are powerful royals and merchants who established the Hanseatic League. The Hearst family is worth more than 25 billion and several members were educated at Harvard University of the British Crown. The McMahon family is a billionaire and owner of the WWE and works under the Bonapartes and Savoys as their noble ancestors who were served militarily by the MacMahons during the Second Italian War of Independence. Today there are MacMahons in France with Italian and French titles of nobility. The Lauder family works for the House of Esterhazy in Austria and the House of East in Austria and Italy. The Guggenheims have assets worth hundreds of billions and are married to the House of Stuart. The Getty family are billionaire American oil merchants and are married to the Italian House of Ruspoli. The Forbes family are billionaires and American descendants of Scottish nobles who still exist.
All gang stalking and cult organizations are owned and controlled by members of royalty and nobility. Criminal organizations such as Royalty itself, Royal Institutions, The Company of Jesus, The Black Monks, The Hellfire Club, The Templar Orders, Freemasonry, The Grand Orient of France, The York Rite, The Scottish Rite, Prince Masonry of Prince Hall, Shriners International, The Royal Order of Jesters, The Cabal Society, Chabad, Scientology, Skull & Bones, The Boulé Society, The 5% Nation, The Nation of Islam, Black Israelites, The Ordo Templi Orientis ( OTO), The Temple of Set, The Church of Satan, Rosicrucian, Golden Dawn, Opus Dei, Mormons, Knights of Columbus, The Bohemian Club, Knights of Phintias, Ancient Order of Druids, Wicca, Santeria, Obeah, Voodoo, Sufism , Greek Fraternities and Brotherhoods, New Age and Gnostic Cults, Nazi Cults, KKK, Mafias, Prison Gangs, Biker Gangs and Street Gangs. The Rockefeller family uses their charitable foundations to fund harassment gangs and bribery in the United States, as well as globalization agendas and vaccination programs. The Rockefeller Foundation funded Almighty Vice Lord Nation, which is an organized crime group, and also funded the Tavistock Institute.
Hollywood, the Church of Scientology, and Silicon Valley are military operations like the US DARPA agency and run by European royalty and nobles like the Oettingen-Spielbergs, Schaumburg-Lippes, Anhalts, Hanovers, Windsors, Passi di Preposulos, Ruspolis, Torlonias and Odescalchis. The Ferragamo family is also involved in the management and financing of corruption in Hollywood. The House of Nassau-Weilberg, which is married to the Torlonias, funds human trafficking and human sacrifice in Hollywood. Idols in the entertainment industry are a dangerous cult with leaders who have access to electronic weapons. Most of modern electronics is being broadcast covertly with GENISIS and NEURON bio-piracy software controlled by Kabbalists and Scientologists. European monarchies function as extensions of Rome and run secret societies that infiltrate government agencies and run corporations for monarchs. The Sovereign Military Order of Malta is the main military council and works closely with the Orders of St. John administered by Protestant royalty such as the Windsors and the Hohenzollerns. The Order of Malta and the Order of Saint John are Masonic organizations with grand masters and titles for initiation. The royal and noble bloodlines are all working together as a global crime syndicate and part of a modernized Roman corporate empire. They also have several competing factions that create the illusion of division. The British crown and Scottish nobles such as the Bruce, Stewart, Sinclair, Campbell, Montagu, Scott, Hamilton, Percy, Boyle, Bowes-Lyon and Sutherland families administer a large part of Freemasonry. All of these families produced Grand Masters of the Grand Lodge of England. There are thousands of Masonic lodges in Europe and in the United States. Freemasonry must be investigated and outlawed. The Greek-German Royal House of Glucksburg directs the Greek fraternities and brotherhoods and uses initiates as its agents. Glucksburg nobles and Italians run the Boule Society, Boule is a Greek fraternal society for African Americans. Martin Luther King and Jesse Jackson have been members of Boule, among many other high-profile, successful, and wealthy blacks, including Barack Obama, Bill Cosby, Al Sharpton, and Thurgood Marshall. The Glucksburg family rules Denmark and Norway and recently ruled Greece. Among its members are the ex-queen Sofía of Spain and Duke Felipe de Edimburgo. Former Greek nobility and royal merchants such as the Mavroleon, Onassis, and Niarchos families are billionaires who have a monopoly in the shipping industry and work with British nobles. The Greek royal family currently lives in London from where many Greek consignment merchants operate. The British Crown authorized and controls universities such as Yale and Harvard which are used to recruit Crown agents through fraternal orders such as Skull & Bones and Book and Snake. Royal and noble families also do undercover business in the City of London Corporation, which dominates global markets. Some of the major London merchant families include the Goldsmith, Stuart, Rothschild, Grosvenor, Sassoon, Barclay, Sutherland, Montagu, Bailey and Guinness families. The Sutherland family created the HSBC bank that has a long history of financial scandals around the world (Emilio Botín, Fernando Alonso, Mohamed VI, Jorge Trías and Jordi Pujol Jr. had accounts at HSBC when it was chaired by Stephen Green, Baron Green of Hurstpierpoint). The Bailey family is co-founder of Janus Henderson through a merger. Janus Henderson manages around 190 billion in assets. The Stuart family owns the Hudson Bay Company and has an alliance with the Bavarian House of Wittelsbach, which is the covert owner of some of the Hudson's Bay Company subsidiaries, which were founded by Bavarian merchants. HBC has approximately $ 12 billion in assets and has had fiscal contracts with the United States through the Organic Law of the District of Columbia of 1871.
The Orange-Nassau family are influential traders through the Netherlands Trading Society and have a large number of shares in Royal Dutch Shell, Philips Electronics and ABN AMRO Bank. The Orange-Nassaus and their Dreyfus agents run the Rand Corporation, which has a contract with the US military. Rand's founder was a Dutch gentleman. The Orange-Nassau family also runs the Loyal Orange Institution in Ireland, which has infiltrated the police, justice and politics. The Luxembourg Nassau-Weilburg family are international bankers connected to the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The royal families of Luxembourg, Belgium and the Netherlands have shares in the European Investment Bank and all of these royals are recently married to Italian nobles.

The Belgian Crown and its nobles are stealing wealth from the United States through fraudulent tax contracts established through the Organic Law of the District of Columbia of 1871 and continue to do so through the Bank for International Settlements. The Barons Strange heads the Masonic Order of Oddfellow. The Russell family are the Marquesses of Tavistock and they run the Tavistock Institute, which is an organization involved in mass mind control. The Russell family also co-founded the Yale University and Russell Trust Association, which is named after the New Haven, Connecticut company based on the Skull & Bones secret society.
Skull & Bones is a death cult military complex run by the Bush family from the USA who are like a European royal family in the USA. The Furstenberg family runs the Royal Order of Jesters who wear a jester on their coat of arms. The Clintons work closely with the House of Furstenberg, who have residences in the United States. The Italian Orsini family and the Holy Roman Rosenberg family lead the Rosicrucian Order of alchemists who infiltrate food and drug companies for chemical warfare. The Medici family, who have a statue of Hermes (Mercury) in their palace in Rome, administer the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, an alchemical secret society. The Medici were architects of modern banking. The Pierleoni family of Rome and the Spanish House of Bourbon-Anjou run the Kabbalah Society, which uses the Spanish lion for its logo.

The royal families of Luxembourg and Liechtenstein own and run their own national and private banks. Austrian and Eastern European royalty and nobles, such as the Habsburgs, Esterhazys and Schonberg, use private banks in Liechtenstein and also own Israeli and Jewish mafias. The Esterhazy family together with the Lucchesi-Palli family run a faction of the Russian mafia through the mob boss Semion Mogilevich from Budapest. The Torlonia family owns the Fucino Bank in Rome and functions as Vatican bankers and treasurers. The Torlonia family of Rome and the Hohenzollern family of Germany are the main owners and controllers of the Bank for International Settlements which was founded and administered by the Nazis during World War II. The Torlonias are architects of fascism and the Hohenzollerns are architects of Nazism.
The East, Rothschild and Hottinger families are some of the leading Swiss bankers. The Romanian Sturdza family also owns a private bank in Switzerland. The Casanova family of Italy and Spain is one of the leading political families in Switzerland. The East and Savoy families run the Bank for International Settlements, which has a contract with most of the major central banks and is embezzling the wealth of nations through fraudulent loans and contracts. The Savoys live in Switzerland and Prince Lorenz of Austria-Este works at the Gutzwiller bank. The Bank for International Settlements must be investigated and closed. The Gutzwiller family is one of the leading banking families in Switzerland, owning its own private bank and managing 35 other Swiss banks. The Swiss Guard is a military body in charge of the security of the Pope and the Holy See. The ceremonial head of the Swiss Guard is the Pope, sovereign of Vatican City. Italian mafias are Rome's enforcers involved in extortion, money laundering, murder and drug trafficking, and they pay their dues to the Sicilian mafia, which in turn pays them to the black nobility. The mafia channels its earnings and tributes to the Black Nobility through the Vatican charitable foundations and then from the Vatican bank they are transferred to the private accounts of the Swiss Bank. The Savoy’s Genovese crime family specializes in extorting Wall Street. The mafia is rigging professional sports for gambling and they also launder their criminal winnings through the casinos. The Torlonia family owns the Kansas City crime family and shares ownership of the Pittsburgh crime family with the Borghese family of Rome and the Rocco di Torrepadula family of Sicily.

Milanese billionaire Silvio Berlusconi works for the Sforza and Visconti families and has a monopoly on Italian media and politics. Berlusconi founded the Forza political party in Italy named after the Sforzas. Some northern Italian nobles such as the Visconti, Borromeo, Este, Gonzaga, Valenti, D’Adda, and Passi di Preposulo families are closely related to billionaire families such as the Rothschilds, Agnellis, Benettons, Armanis, and Ferreros. The Sforza and Visconti families own the Seattle crime family with the Gaetani family as partial owners. The Seattle crime family controls billionaires Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos through blackmail. In 2017, Microsoft and Amazon employees were caught in a sex trafficking scandal.
The Colonna family owns the Knights of Columbus and also owns the Colombo crime family and partially owns the Chicago Outfit along with the Capponi and Roselli families of the Florence Turk. Al Capone was an agent of the House of Capponi and John Roselli was an agent of the Roselli del Turco family. Roselli also worked for the CIA. Colonna means column like Colombo and Colón. The Knights of Columbus infiltrate police departments and work with the Italian mafia. The Massimo and Gaetani families own and run the Gambino crime family and the Philadelphia crime family.

Leon Black is another one of the leading Jewish mobsters in New York. The Jewish Mafia participates in professional sports with white-collar mobsters such as Daniel Gilbert, Robert Kraft, Joshua Harris, Tom Werner, Jerry Reinsdorf, George Kaiser, Peter Guber, Joe Lacob, Mark Cuban, and Micky Arison. The European Union is based on the Treaty of Rome that was signed at the Capitol in Rome.

Why does nobody say that Columbus and the Natives discovered each other?

The way certain people talk about "the discovery" they literally say it's the "discovery" because Columbus told everyone else. But do you think Mayans (yes Mayans discovered Columbus) kept the knowledge to them self? No. They had a communication network with other tribes. People literally ran hundreds of miles to deliver messages. It was a mutual discovery.
So why do people have to put an emphasis on the white guy? Well for one they are writing history from a white-centric point of view because the Europeans are the ones who wrote all the history that people studied while indigenous culture was and is still trampled on and attempted to be erased. Plus there is very little financial reward to be study these things either through school or archaeologists ect. and the survival of the world's population today depends on how much money you have. Where as before when a lot of "great minds" existed you could hunt but there are too many people to do that now and people are packed into cities and suburbs so you have to trade financial compensation for nourishment. So unless people are paying you to do something, most people won't do that thing. And nobody gets paid well to study indigenous culture. Mostly those with close ties to them get benefit from it due to the cultural impact it has but then it still comes at a financial cost to get the education or resources it takes to study it and many people don't have that kind of cash. So it's not something people are incentive to do and that's pretty messed up considering the countries are literally built on the land that's held to be so scared to many tribes. There's no honor or respect among the USA for the people that were here before them.
And I know what you're thinking "But what about the checks that native americans get? And the casinos?"
Well let me tell you my astute children. The checks don't go to every tribe. The tribes that get them had to trade away their land for those checks. And then those checks have to be divided up among the population. So then you end up with little to nothing at the end and a bunch of lost sacred territory that the government is now using for their purposes or was sold to corporations that are now desecrating it. And in order to have a casino, you have to have the money in the first place, which I just explained they don't have, so they again have to borrow that money from the government. So all the money they make from the casino has to be paid back, with interest.
So for all the talk about freedom in the USA, there seems to be restrictions on it if you're anywhere near native. And then they tell you that the white guy discovered the land you and your ancestors were always on. Which literally makes no sense.

It's a Gamble! Gambling - Great? Gruesome? Gambling - Essential, Addictive, Destructive

I'm used to thinking of gambling as horrible. Every day I hear stories of people destroying their lives, and the well-being of their families, because they can't stop gambling. Everything goes. A woman speaks from her prison cell: she turned to robbing banks to pay for her addiction. She doesn't excuse herself. But she couldn't help herself. She wanted to be arrested. Despair.
I've been thinking about gambling differently this past while. Not "pure gambling" (lottery tickets, casinos, online gambling). But gambling as an essential feature of healthy, hopeful living that takes us beyond the routine.
My partner and I are building a business. Now, that's a gamble - with our time, our lives. I'm also building this site - Elsa's Creativity Emporium. Another huge gamble with time, energy, creativity. Columbus sailed for America. His gamble: that he would end up in the Far East. He didn't get was he was aiming for - but the gamble paid off for the Europeans.
Farmers plant seeds. The gamble: that the season will be good. Designers design The gamble: that the design will find a market.
People fall in love, and decide to try to make a live with that person - one of the biggest gambles in life.
****
On the other hand, many people want a predictable salary. No gambling, please. So and so much an hour. Anything else feels wrong, out of control, dangerous. How can anyone live like that, they shudder and recoil.
An observation. Many people don't want to gamble with work time. They want steady dependable pay. At the same time, they have a hugely developed urge, even an overwhelming urge, to gamble.
In other words, quite a number of the same people who want a steady paycheck spend a huge chunk of their everyday earnings on gambling!
"It's just for fun." "It's my right." "I have every right to do what I want with my money. I earned it, after all. It's mine." "Everyone's entitled to have a good time every now and then. All those hours I work. I deserve something."
So, though many people are entirely unable to consider working "on a gamble," (building a business, doing creative projects that may well never pay), they gamble over and over in ways that are set up to make the huge majority of people lose.
But most of the world does live "on a gamble" - or combining the gamble with as much certainty as possible. Traditional gatherer-hunting societies for instance have the relative dependability of gathering (which brings in about 90% of food) and the gamble on what is brought in through hunting (10% of the average food supply, according to my reading). Even with the gathering part, no year is like any other year. The steady dependable pay-off (salary, berries, etc.) is not the norm.
And with that, back to gambling. I'm going to call the kind of gambling I'm used to recoiling from "pure gambling" - in other words, one isn't gambling that the weather will cooperate with one's efforts, one isn't trying to make a sale, one isn't trying to build a site or a business, one isn't courting and hoping another will respond to us. "Pure gambling" - bingo, casinos, lotteries, slot machines, computer games like minesweeper and so on. The goal is winning in a game stacked against us, and the win builds nothing except the win. No book is written, no grain is harvested, nothing is built.
In everyday gambling - which I'll call "part-of-life gambling", the pleasure of winning is part of so many other things. It's part of building a life - gambling that our reaching out to someone will pay off, gambling that our design will find a market, gambling that the move to another city where there are supposed to be better jobs will lead to a better job.
****
In "pure gambling," all that other stuff has been taken out. The goal: the win. The goal: the payoff. In some forms of "pure gambling", one does build some skills - one learns to play bingo well, to know the ins and outs of computer games. One becomes fast, the moves automatic. In other forms of pure gambling, people just, say, pull the arm of a one-armed bandit - and the craving to keep doing this that be so strong that people have resorted (or so I've heard) to wearing diapers so they don't need to leave to go to the bathroom.
I've felt the pull of pure gambling, as well as part-of-life gambling. The time: about ten years ago. Too much stress. One day, I opened minesweeper, a computer game, and played a few games. The stress disappeared. I ended up playing minesweeper for several days, getting better and better. Wonderful and relaxing. At some point, I couldn't get better at minesweeper. From that point on, winning or losing (most often losing), became a matter of luck. And yet I still wanted to play. Very much so.
I did what was easiest for me to do: I asked my partner to take the game off my computer (at the time I didn't have the skill to know how to delete it myself). I don't think, though, that I could have used the computer and not played. The pull felt irresistible. I felt deprived when the game was gone. I wanted it back. I didn't ask for it back, though. I was able to have that much power over the pull of the game.
I did, for a number of years, turn to solitaire - not on the computer. Too dangerous. The old-fashioned way, with cards. If I played more than I thought was okay, I would put the cards in a place where it was inconvenient for me to get them - in a corner of the basement, for instance. Sometimes I would go and get them. More often I wouldn't.
The last several years have been so busy that there hasn't been time to reach for the cards. And I've noticed that the urge is gone. I want, if I have a few minutes, to take a walk, to make supper, to do nothing. I like life better that way.
I've been gambling enormously, these past few years, but the healthy way - doing things, hoping and planning that the projects will make it in the world.
****
I'm back to gambling: the good, the bad, the ugly.
The good. This is when we take gambles in life, gambles that come from as much knowledge and experience as possible. Even then, it's important that we check out the risks as well as possible - because in everyday life just as in a casino, one can gamble away one's savings, one's home, and so on. I took a gamble fifteen years ago: I had work (flight attendant) that was dependable but didn't satisfy me. I was finishing my Ph.D. when the airline hit hard times and offered a golden handshake to people willing to leave. I didn't have full-time college or university teaching lined up. Worse, there was hardly any teaching of any kind available where I lived. Still, I took a gamble. After all, I had an almost completed Ph.D. in hand, and had been doing university teaching part-time for years.
It wasn't an instant win. But I finally got college teaching, and eventually even steady college teaching. And that again isn't an instant fix, like a casino win. It means having to work at making the teaching successful, learning how to make the more difficult classes work (when one can), etc. There are ongoing challenges.
I think of Crick and Watson, who worked on figuring out the structure of DNA - and only after 10 years came to the realization (through a dream) that there was a double helix. They gambled with 10 years of their life.
I think of Banting, who figured out how diabetes can be controlled through insulin. So much time and effort, done despite the lack of success of others.
The dangerous good. I am thinking of people my parents knew. Not gamblers of any sort. They had built a financially successful life through steady paid-by-the-hour work. Then their 20-year-old son saw a "golden business opportunity". A local successful business was for sale. The parents mortgaged their house to the max to buy it. In a year, the successful business was destroyed through a serious of stupid choices made by their inexperienced son who had all kinds of ideas for "improving" it. The parents lost everything.
The bad. Pure gambling, when it's more than an occasional pleasure. My mother would buy an Irish Sweepstakes ticket at a time when gambling was illegal in Canada. She got a thrill out of doing something illegal. Also the ticket was a kind of miracle hope for an instant fix to all the everyday financial struggles. But it was a small cost.
For all too many people, the cost is high - financially, and in time and focus. Apparently over 15% of Canadian teenagers have at least a moderate addiction to what I call bad gambling.
Of course it can also give some kind of gratification to people leading small boring lives. Bingo halls enthrall thousands of people week after week.
The gruesome. This is when the pure gambling urge takes over someone's life, and often destroys everything else in that life. Couple life, parenting, other interests.
****
What to do? One, recognize the intense power of the "gambling pay-off pull." There it is, the jackpot - like a carrot to a donkey. Not easy to resist.
Societies and countries which outlaw gambling - like both Canada and the States used to - recognize the destructive power of "the pay-off pull" central to pure gambling.
Personally, I find it insane to take away the laws that prohibit gambling without at least, at the same time, mandating huge public education - from earliest childhood on - on the destructive power of "the gambling pay-off pull."
It's like no longer ensuring that water is drinkable, but not doing anything so that people each take care of their own water supply. Can you imagine a huge campaign against providing drinkable water on the basis that this tampers with individual liberty? that each person has the right to drink the water of one's choice?
****
And yet to go back to good gambling. I will now call it "integrated gambling" - gambling as part of other activities. The same intense pay-off pull may help us through tough times. We practice and practice a difficult guitar piece - we know there will be a pay-off and the high of getting there (at least for a moment, before we move on to the next challenge). We put in long hours working with a child with learning difficulties - and we exult when learning happens. Pay-off.
Good gambling. I'd say that's a core part of human development. It keeps us going - we're not only doing whatever it is (trying to keep the corps alive in a hard season), but longing for the pay-off. And when it does happen, euphoria, a natural high. Yeah!!!
Good gambling combines with creativity. It helps us move out of ruts, into the unknown. Something in us knows this is a good direction. There is a pull from deep inside ourselves.
****
As with so much about us, it's easy to mess things up.
Gambling - well. Gambling combined with a project, a goal, an end that does not have to do with gambling, a goal in itself that usually leads to further development.
Gambling - bad. Gambling for the lure of the win, the pay-off - usually unrelated to the efforts we put in. (There was nothing my mother did, that would make her more likely to win the Irish Sweepstakes than what anyone else did - it was just luck. And she never won.)
Gambling - gruesome - when "pure gambling" has taken over someone's life.
All it takes is a tiny change inside ourselves to go from the good to the bad to the gruesome - a disconnection of the pay-off pull from something constructive.
****
I started with words from a song I wrote years ago, on a gamble Western society gives huge value to: love. Young people are expected to find a partner to live with, taking a huge gamble with their lives. I would call it a central healthy gamble. And again here, it's been found that, time after time, learning is important. People who have been around healthy love relationships are way more likely to have the love gamble pay off.
I think we need to learn to gamble well - to do the right kind, and do it well.
I'll end with lines from that song - when can be about the best of a good gamble:
Love is my kind of tangle Love is my kind of gamble I've got all that I can handleLove More of Love Gamble, Love Tangle

There should be a film or mini series adaptation on the Douglas - Tyson fight @ The Mirage. Naturally a phenomenal storyline. Hear me out:

This is a very long shower thought....
Three simultaneous storylines: Buster Douglas, Mike Tyson and the fight itself (with Don King on lead for that). I'm thinking it plays in flashback - wth the fight as the backdrop and both Tyson & Douglas reminiscing on their path as they prep for the bout.
Mind you, this is pure Hollywood magic touch up below and not all is accurate.
  1. Buster Douglas: born to badass boxing legend "Dynamite Douglas" that owned a gym in Columbus OH. Trained a few amateurs occasionally.
Teen Buster is old enough to visit his dad at work and his dad tries get him to box as a way to pass down the legend.
After training to simply stay in shape, his father signs him up for a fight and doesn't tell him till later while at the same time training Buster, unbeknownst to him. They confront this and Buster can't back out now.
Buster ends up winning that fight handily and goes on a win streak. He starts fully appreciating the sport competitively. While his father's training intensifies to a point of frustration. Much friction ensues
A string of losses and inconsistent outcomes, including a loss streak after losing the chance for a belt, forces Buster to fire his dad as the trainer. Falling out with father ensues (think silver linings playbook scene with Cooper and De Niro). More friction ensues.
Douglas hires new people after struggling mentally to find the drive for a bit. His wife leaves him out of the blue. This further motivates Buster.
He starts winning a few fights wth fundamentals and now has a shot at the belt....... against the viscous Mike Tyson in foreign Japan.
  1. Mike Tyson: raised in the hard streets of Bed Stuy and Brownsville, 10y old Mike had a knack for defending others and getting in fights bc of his lisp / voice.
At 16y Mike's mother dies- his driving force and glue. However his temporary assigned guardian is a legendary boxing coach that now owns a gym upstate NY and looking more to life than just the sport. The relationship is very much Karate Kid (Coach gives Mike a simple task disguised as a fundamental stance) - Coach is peaceful like a Yoda and Mike is eager to fight, esp wth the build up of his mother's death.
As an amateur he completely destroyed opponents. At 20y he wins the heavyweight with ease and a very inspirational moment to his mother's memory. More wins and fame build up. Mike becomes a pop culture icon with talk shows and interviews, etc (things Mike isn't a fan of). Frustration of this unwanted fame settles in while he nurses a coke and partying habit.
Creating a rivalry with Evander Holyfield, he starts to find ways to mess with him while Holyfield disses him back continually. Just one fight stands between. And that one fight happens to be against.......Buster Douglas.
  1. The Fight: cut to an older swanky G, mid 60s and weathered but well dressed male individual. He's a top dawg Vegas bookie. While reading the paper, Bookie notices that it's weeks away from the fight and no other casino is listing the fight for placing wagers, which is highly unusual.
He decides to list the fight at 42-1 odds, unheard of at the time. The other bookmakers knock him (similar to the underdog mentality the other fighters are facing) but he opens the door for others to place wages. "Theres no such thing as a sure thing."
One of his clients reaches out and places this bet on Douglas. This client ends up being a friend of Don King. We shift focus to him now.
Don King doing eccentric Don King business things to set up this fight, along with all the stipulations while fighting a messy lawsuit and the mob on his back. He's finding ways to squeeze as much out of the deal financially as possible while also pressured by the mob to throw the fight in favor of them making money in Vegas by using our Bookie character to place the bet. Admittedly King, like Tyson, has his sights set on the next fight vs Holyfield and begins to lose sight of what's in front of him.
  1. The Mirage Fight: 7 days leading up the bout. We catch up to find out that Douglas lost his mother and Tyson is continuing his struggles from the point we last left them.
Some pre fight shenanigans to further amplify the importance of Douglas's role while Tyson isn't paying much attention to this.
Fight begins - Douglas begins to dominate out of the gate while Tyson finds ways to survive the rounds. Some drama ensues in Tysons corner when it turns out his trainers didn't bring proper equipment for the round breaks since they thought this would be over quick.
Tyson claws back and knocks Douglas down but he makes it through. At this point, it's anyones match. The fighters are on their last tick of gas. We enter the 10th round. Everyone is on the edge of their seats - Holyfield, Bookie, the mob, Don King, etc.
The bell rings and the fighters begin their gassed assault on each other. Tyson and his body blows. Douglas and his long arm span. Douglas sees a small window and goes for the knock out (in slow motion).
We flash back to a moment where Dynamite Douglas is knocking around teenage Buster to a point of anger. Back to the fight - Buster Douglas follows through his punch using that pent up emotion to knock down Tyson.
Tyson is down. In his perspective now, we're fading between the ref counting to ten and a memory of Mike being bullied when he was ten. He lets that negative memory get to him just enough for the ref to count to 10 and declaring the fight over. Buster Douglas wins the match.
Cut to black.
Credits roll wth actual clips of the post fight interviews in the ring on half the screen.
Themes of fighting physical and mental demons. Taking advantage of opportunities. Using your emotions to your advantage of success/failure. Importance of father figures.
Or something like that...
IT'S JUST AN IDEA AND NOT PLAGIARIZING WTH INTENT, ALL PURE COINCIDENCE IF SO.

I made a list of content from the current wave of Boxsets and whether DGM sells them [Part 1]

I made a list of content from the current wave of Boxsets and whether DGM sells them [Part 1]
You can find Part 2 here
Based on a previous post, I decided to make a list of every disc from each of the currently available King Crimson boxsets. I do not include the content from the original Court of the Crimson King boxset from 2009 as that is long out of print and King Crimson is going to be redoing that set in the future. Where possible, I will include links to DGM if the discs are available for sale digitally through their store, in case you aren't interested in the sets as a whole, but might still want portions of them. If the disc is exclusive to the boxset, then I will make a note of it. This list is in order of when in King Crimson's history the boxsets cover, not necessarily the release order the sets came out in. For the sake of condensing the list as well as ease of reading the list, I will leave off the Discs that do not include studio releases as the main focus of this post is to show where on DGM Live you can purchase the content of the boxsets without having to purchase the entire boxset.

Sailors' Tales (1970-1972)

Sailor's Tales
Having lost half the band after In the Court of the Crimson King, Fripp would convince Greg Lake and Michael Giles to return as session musicians for In the Wake of Poseidon, but after that he would need a new overall lineup if King Crimson were to continue. This second Lineup would encompass In the Wake of Poseidon post-studio recording through Islands. This boxset covers the Islands era of King Crimson at the beginning of the 1970's. It was released on November 10, 2017.

Larks' Tongues in Aspic: The Complete Recordings

This Boxset picks up where Sailors' Tales left off, covering Late 1972 and 1973's Larks' Tongues in Aspic Studio Album. The boxset was released on October 15, 2012.

First time trip to my local casino (Storytime with 3 hands included)

Yesterday, March 7th, I went with my roommates' boyfriend to our local casino. I guess he wanted someone to go with him to pull him off the baccarat table after a certain amount of time (he told me he gets stuck there sometimes). Little did he know, I was going to be the worst person for that type of job because I was going to go find the poker room. We left at around 8 to arrive at the casino around 8:40, we set to leave at around 2 hours in.
First things first, we needed to stop at the bank across the street to withdraw from the atm. First, atm doesn't wanna spit out any money, it looks like we're running poorly already. Luckily there's a second one and after about 20 minutes we pull out some cash.
I tell him to pull out 300$ for me, because I know that's the max at the 1/2$ tables inside. We go across the street to the fabled Hollywood Casino Columbus. I recently turned 21 two months ago so I have my ID in hand and ready. While giving my ID to the door guy I asked him if I looked 15 and he laughed and said yeah.
After we're in, roommates boyfriend shows me where he'll be at, and then points me in the direction of the cashier as well as the poker room. I notice the place is super packed, probably typical of a Saturday night. I walk up to the cashier line having no idea what I'm doing, I sit in line for about 5 minutes and noticed nobody was getting any chips from these people, so I figured I was in the wrong line and awkwardly stepped out... I walk into the poker room looking even more lost and a desk lady puts on her customer service voice and says "hi sweetie what are you looking for". I tell her I'd like to get seated at a 1/2 game and she asks me for my players-card. Having absolutely no idea what she's talking about (yanno, first time here) I ask her what a players-card was and then she explains I have to go to the cashier's line to get one. (in the back of my head like, shit I was just in that line). So I walk back over to the line, sit in for another 10 minutes and then sign up for a players card. The cashiers were telling me about some type of first-time benefits and it felt like they were trying to sell me stuff so I started ignoring them. They gave me pamphlets with all the same information anyway.
After finally getting my players-card I'm now ready to play, but I decide to be a good person and go check on my buddy at the baccarat table before I actually go and get seated. He was down about $400 already after like a half-hour, the guy definitely gambles a lot though and he told me his limit was $1000 for the night. I leave him be and I go back to the poker room and the desk lady points me to the poker room cashier to get my chips and shows me which table I'm at. (Super helpful)
I get my 300$ in my rack and I'm ready to go. I'm not expecting too much from the session since it's my first one at a casino and I'm honestly expecting to punt off my entire stack. I sit down, however, optimistically because I know I have a decent chance. There are probably about 25 tables running all different stakes and I find out that there's a high-hand bonus every half-hour tonight that pays out $300. (Rooms packed, probably a lot of non-regular players). I sit at my table, the dealer asks me if I want in this hand and I told them I'll wait for the big blind. The guy to my immediate left seems very disgruntled and says "you're gonna be waitin' a while." I didn't realize but I sat down on my big blind, but I guess I had the option to wait for an entire orbit. (probably poor etiquette to wait for an entire orbit, my bad.)
After watching for the orbit, I notice all the stereo-types about 1/2 are spot on, I see the classic old-man coffee across the table and even an old-lady coffee. I think I sat at a great table because there's those two and a couple of people who just aren't topped off on their stacks. (about 3 people with 150$ stacks). I notice a lot of limping already and A lot of action post-flop on wet boards. I play for about 2 hours and pick up 3 memorable hands, all the rest we're just typical blind steals, C-bets after aggression pre, etc.
The most memorable hand goes like this;
I woke up with the pocket ladies in MP QsQh I raise pre to something like 8$ (small but there weren't a ton of pre-flop raises that I had seen yet, I didn't know what was their standard so I just went 4x)
Folds around to the button who "3" bets to exactly $20 Everyone else folds, heads-up, action back to me.
I elect to make it $60, I cover villain by about $40 (320ish to 280ish). Villain decides to flat call.
Flop comes;
10d 4x Qx (complete rainbow no flush draws) Obviously a dream flop for me, I decide his flatting range is pretty strong here and I decide to check it over to him.
Villain ships it all in, without hesitation I snap it off. I put the guy on a strong hand either Aces Kings or maybe an unlucky set of 10s that set mined. We flip the cards over and he has 8d9d (wow this is a great table). Turn comes another 10, boating us up, and Villain is now drawing dead. This win puts our stack up to about 675ish and happens about 40 minutes into the session.
The second most memorable hand is a hand where I had JsTs.
I'm Early position (maybe seat 3 on a full table) and I elect to raise to $8, I get 5 callers and flop comes extremely dry, I decide to check it over because I just missed and I fold after MP makes something like a $24 bet.
This was the point in the session where I think that my raise sizing pre-flop hurt me a little bit, 4x didn't exactly feel standard for live poker. (stack after this probably down to about 590ish 1hr20m into the session)
The third and final hand is a hand where I woke up with the fabulous Ts2h! I'm in the small blind and button puts on a $5 straddle, Not knowing what's going on because I hadn't been next to a straddle yet I look at my cards and look around the table, dealer scares me a little bit and goes "4 more".
(I panic threw in $4 cuz I didn't know the action was on me)
folds around to LP middle-aged Asian women who calls and the straddle checks. (I've been pretty tight, great image at this point).
Flop comes;
Kh 2d 7s
First action I check, middle-aged Asian women bets $12, straddler folds, heads up. I elect to check-raise on this dry textured board hoping for a fold, I make it $25 to go. Villain starts muttering to herself and talking a whole bunch, very visibly upset and has a relatively shorter stack of about $100 left behind. She makes the call.
Turn comes 6c
I check it over to her (probably should continue my bluff but this is my first one live in a casino)
She checks back.
River is Ac
I decide to lead out small here (looks like a value bet on a weak opponent and throughout the night I've only shown down the nuts) I stick in 26$ she thinks for a while muttering to herself about what I could possibly have and makes a read that I had nothing on the flop. She ends up folding and I take it down. (PHEW)
This puts my stack up to about $630ish 1hr50m into the session.
After a few more orbits, and some preflop raises where I just miss the flop, my stack dwindles down to an even $600, and I look down at my phone and see a "Wya" (Where you at?) text from my roommates' boyfriend. I decide to start racking up at this point and then I go pull him off his table where he's still playing baccarat.
He books a winning session as Do I, We get some food with the credit he's built up from going to the casino so much. And we leave victorious.
If you've made it this far, thanks for reading, and I hope this helps any first-time casino-goers in the future.

There should be a film or mini series on the Tyson - Douglas fight @ the Mirage. Naturally a phenomenal storyline. Hear me out:

This is a very long shower thought....
Heres a quick background source in case you need
https://youtu.be/o4rHtSlaHqg
Three simultaneous storylines: Buster Douglas, Mike Tyson and the fight itself (with Don King on lead for that). I'm thinking it plays in flashback - wth the fight as the backdrop and both Tyson & Douglas reminiscing on their path as they prep for the bout.
Mind you, this is pure Hollywood magic touch up below and not all is accurate.
  1. Buster Douglas: born to badass boxing legend "Dynamite Douglas" that owned a gym in Columbus OH. Trained a few amateurs occasionally.
Teen Buster is old enough to visit his dad at work and his dad tries get him to box as a way to pass down the legend.
After training to simply stay in shape, his father signs him up for a fight and doesn't tell him till later while at the same time training Buster, unbeknownst to him. They confront this and Buster can't back out now.
Buster ends up winning that fight handily and goes on a win streak. He starts fully appreciating the sport competitively. While his father's training intensifies to a point of frustration. Much friction ensues
A string of losses and inconsistent outcomes, including a loss streak after losing the chance for a belt, forces Buster to fire his dad as the trainer. Falling out with father ensues (think silver linings playbook scene with Cooper and De Niro). More friction ensues.
Douglas hires new people after struggling mentally to find the drive for a bit. His wife leaves him out of the blue. This further motivates Buster.
He starts winning a few fights wth fundamentals and now has a shot at the belt....... against the viscous Mike Tyson in foreign Japan.
  1. Mike Tyson: raised in the hard streets of Bed Stuy and Brownsville, 10y old Mike had a knack for defending others and getting in fights bc of his lisp / voice.
At 16y Mike's mother dies- his driving force and glue. However his temporary assigned guardian is a legendary boxing coach that now owns a gym upstate NY and looking more to life than just the sport. The relationship is very much Karate Kid (Coach gives Mike a simple task disguised as a fundamental stance) - Coach is peaceful like a Yoda and Mike is eager to fight, esp wth the build up of his mother's death.
As an amateur he completely destroyed opponents. At 20y he wins the heavyweight with ease and a very inspirational moment to his mother's memory. More wins and fame build up. Mike becomes a pop culture icon with talk shows and interviews, etc (things Mike isn't a fan of). Frustration of this unwanted fame settles in while he nurses a coke and partying habit.
Creating a rivalry with Evander Holyfield, he starts to find ways to mess with him while Holyfield disses him back continually. Just one fight stands between. And that one fight happens to be against.......Buster Douglas.
  1. The Fight: cut to an older swanky G, mid 60s and weathered but well dressed male individual. He's a top dawg Vegas bookie. While reading the paper, Bookie notices that it's weeks away from the fight and no other casino is listing the fight for placing wagers, which is highly unusual.
He decides to list the fight at 42-1 odds, unheard of at the time. The other bookmakers knock him (similar to the underdog mentality the other fighters are facing) but he opens the door for others to place wages. "Theres no such thing as a sure thing."
One of his clients reaches out and places this bet on Douglas. This client ends up being a friend of Don King. We shift focus to him now.
Don King doing eccentric Don King business things to set up this fight, along with all the stipulations while fighting a messy lawsuit and the mob on his back. He's finding ways to squeeze as much out of the deal financially as possible while also pressured by the mob to throw the fight in favor of them making money in Vegas by using our Bookie character to place the bet. Admittedly King, like Tyson, has his sights set on the next fight vs Holyfield and begins to lose sight of what's in front of him.
  1. The Mirage Fight: 7 days leading up the bout. We catch up to find out that Douglas lost his mother and Tyson is continuing his struggles from the point we last left them.
Some pre fight shenanigans to further amplify the importance of Douglas's role while Tyson isn't paying much attention to this.
Fight begins - Douglas begins to dominate out of the gate while Tyson finds ways to survive the rounds. Some drama ensues in Tysons corner when it turns out his trainers didn't bring proper equipment for the round breaks since they thought this would be over quick.
Tyson claws back and knocks Douglas down but he makes it through. At this point, it's anyones match. The fighters are on their last tick of gas. We enter the 10th round. Everyone is on the edge of their seats - Holyfield, Bookie, the mob, Don King, etc.
The bell rings and the fighters begin their gassed assault on each other. Tyson and his body blows. Douglas and his long arm span. Douglas sees a small window and goes for the knock out (in slow motion).
We flash back to a moment where Dynamite Douglas is knocking around teenage Buster to a point of anger. Back to the fight - Buster Douglas follows through his punch using that pent up emotion to knock down Tyson.
Tyson is down. In his perspective now, we're fading between the ref counting to ten and a memory of Mike being bullied when he was ten. He lets that negative memory get to him just enough for the ref to count to 10 and declaring the fight over. Buster Douglas wins the match.
Cut to black.
Credits roll wth actual clips of the post fight interviews in the ring on half the screen.
Themes of fighting physical and mental demons. Taking advantage of opportunities. Using your emotions to your advantage of success/failure. Importance of father figures.
Or something like that...
IT'S JUST AN IDEA AND NOT PLAGIARIZING WTH INTENT, ALL PURE COINCIDENCE IF SO.
Shower thinkers - who would be the best actors to play the roles??

Twitch is allowing Online Casinos to advertise to minors with the new Casino Category

Aside from the extremely blatant viewbotting, Twitch is allowing Online Casinos to promote their services by livestreaming themselves "playing" on their website to minors.
These streams violate FTC regulations requiring people to advertise that they are either
A.) Endorsed by the company and are playing on behalf of a company, or
B.) They are the company.
These streams also violate the UK's Gambling Commission, Advertising Standards Authority, the Committee of Advertising Practice, and the Remote Gambling Association letter that was sent to over 450 websites . This letter clearly states-
We are writing to advise you to amend or remove immediately any ads on your website or in third party media that are:
This relates particularly to freely accessible ads for play-for-free and play-for-money games and includes all graphics and images displayed on a website or in third party media.
There is no age warning on these streams, which allows viewers with or without an account to click and watch. Twitch's Mature Content setting would not cover these even if it was on due to the fact that the, on their own "Twitch Account Settings Documentation" page, the Mature Content option is simply described for-
If you are a caster looking for a more mature audience then it is recommended you enable the mature content setting which will warn users the content they will be viewing is intended for mature audiences.
It does not say anything about having to be 18+.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Going through the top 4 most "watched" streams currently in gambling, they all have no webcam, no voice, no interaction with chat. The only thing that they actually have on their Twitch page is referral links for different sites. Every channel made for the sole purpose of advertising can be seen simply by looking in their Panels. They all have the exact same website links at the bottom, with a few variants thrown in there.
Slot V., Mr.Bit, AzartPlay, and Casino Columbus (to name a few) are all owned by the same company, Avento N.V. It is clear that Avento N.V's marketing team saw the unrestricted access to Twitch's audience with the "Casino" category and decided to flood it with channels that stream for 48+ hours on repeat. Even with the stream with the face cam, they added an "online" timer to show how long it's been live for, but the actual live time is drastically different.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
These channels are obviously view botting as well. The top 4 channels right now have 12,814 viewers, 4581 viewers, 4412 viewers, and 3326 viewers. One website that checks for viewbots has determined that up to 99% of the viewers in these channels are viewbots. One of the channels has 4412 viewers, but only 28 people actively chatting.
In regards to "actively chatting", the number of times that I've seen "Wow !!" "YOUR WELCOME !!" "Wooow" and "I really think that you seems to be a nice Guy man, wish you all luck !" is insane. They aren't even good viewbots to be honest.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is a major issue that Twitch needs to address. Twitch is allowing these companies to fully advertise to both minors and the oblivious. This has already been sent to Twitch Support as well.
This was originally posted on /Twitch but was removed by a mod because-
Rule 4: Submissions about official matters will be removed.
