Danielle coauthored the book Hit Me! Fighting the Las Vegas Mob by the Numbers and self-published her own duology book series, EVE-0 and Lucien. When Danielle isn't writing, she's seeking adventure with her family.Ashley and Danielle have been connected as friends for a while now, and Ashley felt called to bring Danielle on the show to inspire the next generation of authors who are feeling the energetic pull to tap into their unique expression through writing.“With writing, I'm doing what I'm meant to be doing. I get signs, and I don't even know how to explain it. It just feels right. Not easy, but right.”By it's very nature, writing is an introspective, thoughtful activity. The process of writing a book opens channels for you to go inward and connect with yourself more deeply. Through writing, you gain perspective on what really matters to you. Whether fiction, nonfiction, moving testimonials, or light-hearted poetry, you bring forth the courage to put your thoughts, dreams, and your own perspective on paper.By following what lights you up and sharing the authentic expression of your calling, you are embodying an act of courage and faith and trusting the journey of being seen for the unique gift you are to the world.Remember, nobody can do it like you can. When you own that truth, the magic happens. Listen to the brand new Badass Manifester podcast episode Write Your Book Ft. Danielle Gomes now!

Growing up, Susan Berman's childhood was idyllic. She was Las Vegas Mob royalty, the daughter of a Mob boss who ran the Flamingo and furnished his only child with anything money could buy. But halfway through her childhood, dream exploded. Susan's father died without warning during a routine surgery. Next, Susie Berman's mother died by her own hand the next year when she overdosing on drugs. Susie was whisked away from the only home she'd ever known, parentless and living with an uncle and his family and sent away to boarding school. Fast forward to college where Susan met her soul mate, Robert Durst. They became best friends and each other's confidants. Durst went to work for his wealthy father at the Durst Organization in Manhattan while Susan became a journalist, writing about women's cultural issues for newspapers and magazines. She followed Durst to New York, where he married the beautiful Kathie McCormack. Then, Kathie disappeared and Susan stood by her best friend Robert, despite suspicions that Durst had caused the demise of his wife. Twenty years later, as police closed in on Durst and reopened the case, seeking to interview his best friends, Susan was murdered. Few clues were found. Who did it and why? Was it the Mob? A trusted friend? Murder in Beverly Hills (an updated, revised edition of Murder of a Mafia Daughter) answers those questions. Exclusive information about the investigation is included in this edition, as well as new interviews of police detectives, Susan's friends, family and colleagues, and new information about Robert Durst is revealed.

Jones won a large casino jackpot she was found dead in her apartment. The 46-year old Spokane resident won the jackpot at Northern Quest Casino on Feb. 15. Two days later on Feb. 17, she was found dead on her apartment floor. Albert Asher was Ms. Jones’ stepfather. His wife and Jenny’s mom is Sue Asher. She requested that Albert check on her daughter after multiple phone calls went unanswered. Other tenants in Ms. Jones’ apartment complex mentioned issues with a man to police during the investigation. The matter has been ruled a suspicious death. Cryptos Maintain Strong Ties to Online GamblingThe online gambling industry continues to explode in popularity. Many of today’s online casino sites encourage players to gamble with the use of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin tops the list as the most popular crypto. It is also the most assessable form of digital currency. Yet, bitcoin is far from the only crypto accepted for gambling online. The main reason why cryptos are so popular for gambling online revolve around privacy issues. No personal information is tied to crypto transactions. These transactions are not tied to financial institutions or government regulatory organizations. Cryptos can easily be converted into fiat cash as another strong selling point. Texas Woman Wins Six-Figure Jackpot at Las Vegas AirportThe main commercial airport flying in and out of Las Vegas is McCarran International Airport. In typical Las Vegas fashion, there are 1400 slot machines located throughout the facility. Only 400 are operational these days due to ongoing coronavirus health protocols.

She was waiting for a Southwest Airlines flight back home. Local news sources never mentioned if she made her flight. The biggest slot jackpot ever at McCarren was $3.96 million.
