What are Social Casinos and Are They Really Free?

Acroud Media

Social casinos are considered to be some of the Best No Deposit Casinos, and use a currency called Gold Coins and Sweeps coins, which in turn replace using real money to wager on online casino games. How it works is that when you sign up, you purchase Gold Coins using real money, and use this currency to place wagers. The fact that you do not use your money to wager is simply the main reason social and sweeps casinos aren’t considered gambling sites. Social casinos and online Sweepstakes have recently become a craze in the United States and are legal in all but 3 states. These are Nevada, Washington, and Idaho. Unlike normal online casinos and betting sites, the legal age to play at a social casino is 18+, which is a huge difference. The idea behind the social casino is that they remove the so-called “gambling” element from what you consider to be a standard online casino and replace this with the idea that a social casino is so-called “free to play”. But is it really free to play? Players also can't technically win anything; by anything, we mean real money. You can redeem sweeps coins for cash prizes or other bonuses when you earn sweeps coins whilst playing. Everything about a social casino seems identical to your standard online casino site, which can confuse new players when they first hear about social casinos. Are social casinos really free to play? Your typical online casino makes money from players depositing their funds and playing games such as online slots. So where is the money made at a social casino then? Well, even though you do not deposit funds into your account at a social, you have to purchase gold coin packages, which will then act as your currency to play with. You could argue that online players are still using their own money to buy gold coins to play casino-style games. If you run out of coins then you only really have two options, you stop playing, or you continue to purchase more gold coins. So, does this make social casinos really a free-to-play gaming experience?

But for now, only time will tell if these types of casinos have a positive or negative impact on gambling habits. Contact Details Acroud Media info-media@acroudmedia.com

New York City Construction Accident Lawyer Jonathan C. Reiter Answers Who Is to Blame When Construction Workers Are Injured on the Job?

KISS PR Brand Story

Many construction sites in New York City are large and complex, with many moving parts. On a construction site, numerous parties may be involved, and each party may bear some responsibility for a construction worker's injury or death. Site owner - During the course of a construction project, the owner of the site is usually the owner of the property. As the owner or occupant of the land, the site owner typically has significant control over the site and the work being done. This usually means they are legally liable for injuries or deaths because they were aware of, or should have been aware of, a dangerous condition on the property. General contractor - When a worker is injured or killed on the job, the general contractor and certain subcontractors may be held liable. In many cases, it is the general contractor's responsibility to ensure that workers have the necessary safety equipment and training to work without being exposed to hazards. Architects - In some cases, a construction accident occurs because a building or structure is inherently unsafe or was not properly inspected before work began. An architect or a building engineer may be held liable for the death or injury of a construction worker. Manufacturers of construction equipment - If a construction site injury or death occurs due to faulty or defective equipment, the manufacturer of that equipment may be held liable for a construction accident resulting in death or injury. If you were injured on the job as a construction worker, you could take steps to protect your claim. First and foremost, you should seek medical attention for your injuries. It is critical to avoid delays in medical treatment because an insurance company or other responsible party may try to claim that your injuries were caused by something other than the construction site accident.

IAF Endorses the IAQG Certification Scheme in Memorandum of Understanding

International Aerospace Quality Group

The International Accreditation Forum (IAF) and International Aerospace Quality Group (IAQG®) recently signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) that endorses the IAQG Certification Scheme, as a sub-scope of the IAF Multilateral Recognition Arrangement (MLA). The IAQG Certification Scheme is designed to promote consistent and efficient certification processes across the aerospace industry while reducing the cost and complexity of supplier audits. It provides the framework for independent, recognized third-party management system certification of aviation, space, and defense products. Aerospace companies can have confidence that suppliers holding accredited certification to the IAQG Certification Scheme are certified to the highest standards of quality management and that their products and services meet the rigorous requirements of the aerospace industry. “The IAF MLA enables mutual recognition of accredited certification and validation/verification statements between IAF MLA signatories, and thereby the acceptance of accredited conformity assessment results in many markets based on one accreditation,” explained Emanuele Riva, IAF Chair. “Recognition of the IAQG Certification Scheme under the IAF MLA will enable organizations holding accredited certification to this scheme to benefit from increased market access and reduced audit costs while upholding the standards of quality management critical in the aerospace and aviation industry.” Through this MoU, IAF and IAQG will develop and maintain close cooperation to ensure harmonization in the accreditation practices performed by IAF members for the IAQG Certification Scheme. Both organizations will work together in the continuous improvement of the scheme to provide the highest level of competence in the IAQG Certification Scheme’s accredited certification bodies (CBs). “The IAQG and IAF are global leaders in reducing risk and moving beyond compliance to deliver consistently high performance,” said Andy Maher, IAQG President. “Signature of this MoU will enable companies holding accredited certification to expand their reach, explore new business opportunities, and compete effectively in global markets, in line with IAF’s vision of ‘accredited once, accepted everywhere’.” This MoU went into effect on 27 June 2023. About the International Aerospace Quality Group: As an international non-profit association under Belgian law with an office registered in Brussels (Belgium), the IAQG® sets the standard for quality within the worldwide aerospace industry supply chain. The organization is comprised of member companies within the aviation, space and defense industries that design, develop, manufacture and support original equipment at system or subsystem levels. The IAQG is committed to establishing a commonality of quality systems and improvement standards. These standards are documented, published, and applied internationally by original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and circulated throughout the supply chain. To learn more, visit www.iaqg.org. About IAF: The International Accreditation Forum (IAF) is a global association of accreditation bodies, conformity assessment body associations and other organizations involved in conformity assessment in fields including validation and verification and the certification of management systems, products, processes, services and persons. IAF promotes the worldwide acceptance of certificates of conformity and validation/verification statements issued by conformity assessment bodies accredited by IAF MLA signatories and seeks to add value for all stakeholders through its activities and programs.

York Harbour Metals CEO says summer exploration program is a 'game changer' for the company

York Harbour Metals Inc.

York Harbour Metals president and CEO Bruce Durham discusses the company's focus on critical elements projects in Newfoundland, particularly the Bottom Brook Project, a rare earth element project with immense potential. The project spans 20 kilometres (km) by 10km and has yielded exceptional results, including some of the highest rare earth values reported, Durham told Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. Durham emphasized the importance of magnet rare earths in greening the environment and the projected increase in demand for these elements. With around 20% of the rare earths being magnet rare earths, the company is strategically positioned. He also highlighted the shortage of rare earths globally, with most production concentrated in China, and mentioned efforts to diversify supply chains, such as US government involvement in funding rare earth refineries in Texas. Durham also discussed the uranium potential of the project, noting the rising demand for uranium as an alternative power source. Funding for exploration and an initial drill program is secured, with a focus on generating positive results for further development. Investors are advised to monitor assay results and potential targets in the project area. Contact Details Proactive Investors +1 604-688-8158 na-editorial@proactiveinvestors.com

Latitude Uranium positioning itself for the energy transition as it develops Canadian properties

Latitude Uranium Inc

Latitude Uranium Inc CEO John Jentz discusses the company's focus on uranium exploration in an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion. The company holds two properties: the recently acquired Angilak property in Nunavut and the Central Mineral Belt (CMB) project in Labrador. It recently changed its name from Labrador Uranium to Latitude Uranium to reflect its presence in both regions. Jentz said the Angilak property shows promise with historical resources of 43 million pounds at high-grade levels, positioning it among the top projects globally. The CMB project in Labrador, while lower in grade, presents significant potential due to its larger size. Jentz emphasized the importance of good economics and grade to operate successfully in the sub-arctic regions. He said he is optimistic about the prospects for the uranium market, believing it is in a long-term bull cycle due to the need for baseload power in a world transitioning away from fossil fuels. As the company works towards its goal of expanding resources and contributing to the uranium market's demand, it aims to position itself as a significant player in the energy transition landscape.
