Atlantic City Celebrating Milestones Four years ago, four casinos closed their doors in Atlantic City, and around the time our current President took office, the famous Trump Taj Mahal also closed. In all, six Atlantic City casinos closed from 2014 through 2016, due primarily to nearby regional competition in Pennsylvania and Maryland. But Atlantic City is showing signs of life again! On Memorial Day there will be 10,000 beach balls dropped on the world-famous boardwalk, and two new casinos open in June!
Hard Rock International is reopening the former Trump Taj Mahal, and the former Revel property will open as the Ocean Resort Casino. Together, the new casinos will restore as many as 6,500 of the 11,000 jobs Atlantic City lost since 2014, according to CBS news. “What we have in store is going to blow people away,” said Jon Lucas, chief operating officer of Hard Rock International. “It’ll be a boost for the reinvention of Atlantic City.”
JOKE OF THE MONTH A guy comes home from the pub four hours later than he’d promised. “Where the hell have you been?” screams his wife. The man says, “I’ve been playing poker with some mates.” “Playing poker with some mates!?” the wife yells. “Well, you can pack your bags and go!” “So can you,” the guys says. “This isn’t our house anymore.”

PROTOCOLS OF CRAPS ARE JUST AS IMPORTANT AS THE RULES
By John G. Brokopp
John G. Brokopp You wouldn’t drive off the is an author, columnist, tee while another foursome and freelance writer was still on the fairway, specializing in nor would you make your casino gambling approach on the bowling and horse racing. lane at the same time the Contact him at player to your right was jgbrokopp1@gmail.com lining up a shot. Proper playing protocol counts in casino gambling, too. Knowing how to play the games isn’t enough. There are accepted rules of playing protocol that one must observe to make the playing experience as enjoyable as possible for everyone. It’s a good time re-visit some tips for craps players to observe when they pay a visit to the tables. 1. Contrary to what you may have seen in movies or on TV, never cheer for the number 7 or even utter its name. Even though 7 is a winner on the come out roll, it causes too much damage during the course of the game. Craps players, being a very superstitious lot, always refer to 7 as “red” or “big red.”
Welcome to the best little casino in New Mexico Come and enjoy a comfortable atmosphere with friendly people in a place where tradition, culture, and good times come together. A place where people know you by name. We’re not too big, not too small – just the right size to provide the kind of fun and entertainment you want most. Choose from over 600 of your favorite slot machines, including a large selection of penny slots! With
high-dollar progressives, pennies, nickels, quarters, $1 and $5 slots Black Mesa Casino has it all! Look for all the new multi-games and multi-denomination slots on the Black Mesa Casino floor! JUST LIKE CASH lets you EARN MORE SLOT PLAY with every dollar spent! For more details, see one of our friendly guest service team members at the Welcome Center.
2. When buying into a game, time your move so that you’re not tossing money on the felt when a player is getting ready to shoot the dice. 3. Keep your hands away from the layout when you see the stickman push the dice to the shooter. Dealers often caution abusers of this rule with the admonition “hands high.” If the dice happen to hit your hand and a 7-out is rolled, be prepared for some evil eyes. 4. Refrain from spontaneously placing chips on the layout and giving betting instructions to the dealer haphazardly. Dealers take instructions from players in order, just as they pay the players in order. 5. Don’t hog space at the table. Spreading out all over is inconsiderate to others who want to join the game. 6. If you’re the shooter, know how to roll the dice down the center of the table against the back wall. Players like to see the dice tumble and roll. Rolls that land “flat” with negative results will elicit groans from the crowd. A good technique is to place the dice in the palm of one hand and toss them with your palm facing the felt. 7. Do everything possible to keep the dice on the layout when you throw them. When a die flies off the table and lands on the floor, it sends a red flag up for superstitious players who think the next roll will be a dreaded seven-out. Many players will even call their bets off to avoid pending disaster. 8. Remember to tip courteous and efficient dealers. If you want to make a hard-way bet for them, for example, toss in your chips to the stickman and say “give me a two-way.” The stickman will then know one chip is for you and the other one for crew.

CHARLIE DANIELS BAND Sunday, June 24 • 8pm The Encyclopedia of Southern Culture summed it up well when they wrote: “Few individuals have symbolized the South in popular culture as directly and indelibly as Charlie Daniels.” With his signature hat and belt buckle, Daniels is a formidable onstage presence, his music a compelling and distinctive blend of rock, country, bluegrass, blues, and gospel. In the 1960’s, Daniels became an accomplished session musician in Nashville, Tennessee, and worked with Bob Dylan on several of his albums in the late ’60s and early ’70s. Later that decade, Daniels’s solo career took off, thanks to songs like “Long Haired Country Boy,” “The South’s Gonna Do It,” and his most famous song, “The Devil Went Down To Georgia.” Daniels is a Grammy award winner, an Academy of
Country Music Pioneer Award winner, a Gospel Music
Association award winner, and has received multiple awards by the Country Music Association, to name just a few. But quite possibly the award that tops all the lists is his 2008 induction as a member of the Grand Ole Opry—his lifelong dream turned reality. As for his reputation, which can at times be controversial, he says: “I used to say, ‘I’m not an outlaw, I’m an outcast.’ When it gets right down to the nitty-gritty, I’ve just tried to be who I am. I’ve never followed trends or fads. I couldn’t even if I tried. I can’t be anybody but me.” And that includes being as generous as he is talented. In 2014, he co-founded the Journey Home Project, a nonprofit that helps secure funds to benefit veterans of the United States Armed Forces. Come experience one of the greats as Charlie Daniels plays at Sandia Resort & Casino on Sunday, June 24 at 8pm. For more information, visit www.sandiacasino. com
Isleta Resort & Casino Unveils Free Employee Health Clinic In an astounding move of commitment to its employees and their overall health, Isleta Resort & Casino will open a new facility for employee healthcare, located right on the Resort premises. “By providing this important service, we not only reduce lost wages, but we are also taking better care of our own Team Members. They don’t have to miss a day of work to get blood tests, immunizations, or other routine healthcare. Instead, they can visit The Clinic to receive those services free of charge, and conveniently, right here in the workplace,” said Isleta Resort & Casino CEO Harold Baugus. The new facility will offer expanded staffing and more treatment rooms. The service is
available to the employees of the Pueblo of Isleta and Isleta Resort & Casino and will provide service for routine walk-ins or urgent care type illnesses. Family members of the Pueblo of Isleta and the Resort who are covered under Blue Cross and Blue Shield may also be treated at the Clinic. “We firmly believe in taking care of our own people,” Baugus continued. “This is an invaluable service to our Team Members. Further, it is a very powerful recruiting tool, as this type of free service is rarely offered in today’s workplace.” The Clinic, which is operated by MedCore, Inc., will operate Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. It is located on the hotel side of the Resort, near The Spa.
Healthcare & Welfare Benefits
The Pueblo of Isleta offers competitive healthcare & welfare benefits to our employees. The Pueblo is one of only a few employers in the State of New Mexico who offers an on-site health clinic free of charge for employees for non-medical emergencies.

June 2018
ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19) The full Moon in Capricorn on the 28th ignites plenty of interesting professional opportunities for the next three weeks. This is a creative period where you will want to take those ideas off the drawing board and put together a book or online course. Domestic projects get done.
LEO (JULY 23 - AUGUST 22) There is a great amount of emphasis on your home and living conditions now. You may feel like moving or redecorating your home and getting everything new right down to appliances. It’s time for change and you’re so ready. Luck is on your side right up until your birthday but watch health.
TAURUS (APRIL 20 - MAY 20) The planet of change, Uranus has moved into your sign bringing not only a change of Consciousness, but also a change of plans. This is your “coming out” cycle where you will feel confident and raise the bar and your standards in all facets of your life. Don’t settle.
VIRGO (AUGUST 23 - SEPTEMBER 22) Unusual events are in store for you during this cycle. Short impromptu trips, meetings and a possible love interest! You will explore your spiritual nature and gravitate toward those on the same path. Try to go forward with projects you have been putting off. New professional alliances emerge in July.
GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 21) The new Moon on the thirteenth, kicks off your birthday month giving you unlimited possibilities. You are at a place in your life where you feel adventurous and want to travel and take in the sights and soar to new intellectual heights. Implement a new financial strategy.
LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 - OCTOBER 23) While everyone is vacation bound you’re going to be concentrating on your career and getting ahead. The planets begin aligning in numerous earth signs causing you to feel the need to transform your goals and utilize your talents. Stay centered and avoid taking on too much financial responsibility.
CANCER (JUNE 22 - JULY 22) You are in a holding period until your birth cycle on the 21st and the Summer Solstice. Take some down time and heal. You might want to explore new types of nutrition, supplements and even hot yoga. The planet Venus is in your sign for the next month urging you to create a new image.
SCORPIO (OCTOBER 24 - NOVEMBER 21) Solar vibrations illuminate your eighth house of finances putting a new perspective on your assets and earning power. You may have to be flexible and if one of your investments dries up, then find new ways to increase your cash flow before July. Steer clear of unnecessary projects. SAGITTARIUS (NOVEMBER 22 - DECEMBER 21) The highlight is on how you communicate in your relationships from your ‘significant other’ to your co-workers. Avoid hurt feelings and arguments about financial mistakes from the past. You are in a period of craving intellectual stimulation and will seek out lectures or attend a class. CAPRICORN (DECEMBER 22 - JANUARY 19) Finances continue to flow in your direction, but your accounting methods may need some fine turning this month. Pay attention to details and tie up any loose ends in business. Circumstances keep changing regarding your residential arrangements until the end of the year. Count on family. AQUARIUS (JANUARY 20 - FEBRUARY 19) The Gemini vibrations activate your “love zone” making you seek out new and exciting romantic partners. Don’t be surprised if old friends call or drop by to see you. You will feel like you’re in the fast lane right now as your social schedule fills up but stay balanced and grounded at work. PISCES (FEBRUARY 19 - MARCH 20) The Stars shift your attention to home and family, especially around Father’s Day. You will feel like taking some time off from your hectic schedule and bonding with those you love. Take care of paperwork and consider refinancing so you can upgrade your home. Think twice before getting a pet. Cynthia Hess has been a professional psychic and astrologer for more than 35 years.
