Casino revenues were down slightly more than 20 percent in September at Encore Boston Harbor, as gamblers shied away from the resort amid an ongoing strike by its workers. The year-over-year decline is the first concrete indication that the labor dispute — now approaching its second full month — is affecting Encore’s business. Picketing workers have been stationed around the clock outside of the facility throughout the strike, which has driven off some potential patrons. The Massachusetts Gaming Commission’s monthly casino revenue reports show that the casino’s gross revenue from table and slot games was $46.1 million, a a roughly 22 percent decrease from last year. The slowdown at the state’s largest casino will also be felt on Beacon Hill. The state’s cut of revenue from the Everett casino was $11.5 million in September, down from $14.8 million a year earlier. Other Massachusetts casinos posted relatively stable year-over-year numbers. MGM Springfield pulled in slightly less this September, with $22 million in revenue, and Plainridge Park Casino brought in slightly more than last September, with $14.6 million.

Why MS can be hard to diagnose, after Christina Applegate reveals misdiagnosis
Five years after revealing she was diagnosed with the autoimmune disorder multiple sclerosis (MS), actress Christina Applegate has announced that she was misdiagnosed.
