- Gains a huge number of fans.

- Convenient to use.
Several common features can unite traditional and virtual casinos. In particular, we are talking about the feeling of pleasure that can be obtained from the game. People like to try their own luck, and many of them begin to engage in virtual gambling in an effort to earn decent finances. You should agree that additional finance can be quite useful. In addition, many people begin to engage in gambling as an additional income, and subsequently make it their main income.
Decent earnings
It is no secret that people want to earn money by applying less effort and getting more money. However, you should learn the basics of this or that game of chance. And for this, you will need some effort.
Among other things, we should not forget that gambling makes it possible to spend our leisure time in an interesting way, and this is also important. Often people suffer from how to kill their free time. Here they get a chance to spend it both fascinating and useful at the same time.
There are many games and slots that can become a favorite activity. At the same time, the possibility of making money and not going anywhere from your own home turn out to be indispensable and makes such gambling even more favorite among players. No wonder that the total number of players has recently increased significantly and continues to grow.
Gambling atmosphere
In a virtual casino, people have the opportunity to get all the gambling pleasure that they used to enjoy. It turns out that online casinos are capable of transmitting the atmosphere of real gaming establishments. In addition, the number of slots turns out to be much larger and more diverse. Experts also say that the chances of winning are also bigger greater.
However, the loss in gambling should not turn into a mental failure. Everything happens and even experienced professional players can lose from time to time. It should be taken as an inevitable case. It is necessary to develop your own game strategy, so try to minimize the risks and possible losses. You should never give up.
All skills are acquired over time. They do not come immediately and are not obtained from birth. Even the game strategy is developed on the basis of personal practical experience.

Guest Commentary

The first Thanksgiving I remember, I was in the second grade. I didn't know my teacher had asked my dad to come talk to the class. When he walked in, I was embarrassed to see him there. He said that white people came and didn't know how to survive on this land, so we helped them out, then celebrated with a meal. It was a story I'd heard in school before, but not at home.
Tommy Orange
At home, we heard the story of the Sand Creek Massacre — about how our Cheyenne relatives made it through, in November 1864. We were told to fly the American flag. We flew a white one too. And we were gathered around those flags, on our knees begging for mercy, when they came for us.
My dad was born and raised on a reservation in Oklahoma. He didn't speak English, or even see a white person, until he was 5 years old. I grew up in Oakland. My mom is white, and we lived near her side of the family. I hardly ever saw other Native people.
I'm embarrassed now that I was embarrassed then. I feel shame that I felt shame to see my father — there to tell us a story about Thanksgiving. My heritage had felt invisible my whole life. It didn't feel right to be seen, all of a sudden.
Last year, we got national media attention at the Dakota Access Pipeline protests when they sicced their dogs on us. The last time we got that kind of attention, Richard Nixon was in office, when we occupied Alcatraz for almost two years. That occupation started the week of Thanksgiving 1969. In North Dakota almost 50 years later, private militia spent the week of Thanksgiving shooting Native protesters with rubber bullets and spraying us with freezing water. Some of us had never seen ourselves onscreen. And then we saw them trying to get rid of us like time never moved, like the Indian wars didn't end, just went cold.
At Sand Creek, Col. John Chivington said, "Damn any man who sympathizes with Indians! I have come to kill Indians, and believe it is right and honorable to use any means under God's heaven to kill Indians." He and his men killed more than 200 elders, women and children in one day. Chivington was never held accountable for his actions. Damn sympathy, crude oil flows freely under Native land in North Dakota today.
I grew up celebrating the Thanksgiving holiday the same as everyone else. I'm ashamed that I haven't thought more critically about the day — ashamed at my inherent complicity in celebrating that single meal.
There was one meal in 1621. In 1622, the Indian Wars began. Native people were systematically erased through genocidal policy. The Indian Wars ended in 1924. But again, they just went cold because as soon as they ended, the Indian termination era began. Those battles were won by passing legislation that made it harder for us to stay visible, to thrive as a people, to stay alive.
This November, most Americans will sit down with their families and eat a Thanksgiving meal. Some still will be recovering from the night before, which is now known as Blackout Wednesday — the most profitable night of the year in bars across the country. Others will have their children tell the story about the Indians and the Pilgrims. And plenty of people will feel genuine gratitude. Most won't think about the history of the meal before, during or after digesting their turkey.
We can see the eye roll coming before we explain the reason why the holiday is complicated for us. We've explained before to the same eyes that only want to look away, not have to get political. To those of us who suffer from history's consequences and don't benefit from them, talking about our beliefs, even just telling our stories, is automatically political.
We — you and I and everyone — are still trying to absolve ourselves of history. But we don't want to do it by talking about it. We don't want the taste of it in our mouths. We're devoted to keeping it under our place mats. Blackout Wednesday. Gorge Thursday. Get deals Friday. We hide the lie under the darkness of digestion.
One thing is: We don't have to buy turkey. We don't have to buy into any of it. Sure, it's a tradition. So is the Confederate flag.
On Tuesday, the president pardoned a turkey. You should know that turkeys who are pardoned by presidents go up to a farm in Virginia where they usually die within a month. They're bred for the table. There are zero surviving past-pardoned turkeys.
Celebrate the holiday, or don't. Believe in American mercy, or don't. But look where tradition has gotten us so far. Look where we are now.

WINDOW ROCK, ARIZONA - August 14 is National Navajo Code Talkers Day and it is good that, as a nation, we remember and honor these hundreds of courageous men for their service to our country. On the Navajo Reservation, in Window Rock AZ, there is a statue erected in their honor with a plaque commemorating their service. I would like to share with you the words of this plaque and the names of each of the Code Talkers, but first I would like to give you some of the broader historical context that these men literally came out of.
