More than Gambling
Ilustration: Dalmiro Zantleifer
Until quite recently, it was considered that in order to visit a casino one should have minimum knowledge of the rules of each game. This was an essential requirement to be in a gambling house.
Today, it is not necessary to be in the knowledge of these rules in order to enjoy a casino: the slot machines have changed the mystique of players, renewing and attracting a larger audience willing to have a good time.
In addition to this, entertainment is guaranteed by the shows presented by most casinos.
Patagonian estancias
The rise of the estancias has changed the empty limitless space into a rural production environment that enabled the country to be positioned among the first suppliers of raw material in the world.
Towards the south, the estancias have given the scenery a new shape. Getting through the harsh winter, the intense snowfalls and the incessant wind, they have become real settlements scattered in the vastness of the fields.
Paleontology
Approximately 65 million years ago, a large percentage of vegetables and animals suddenly became extinct. It was in the late Cretaceous period and there are various theories about it. Some scientists attribute this event to a gradual process that finally led to selective extinction. Others assert that a catastrophe, such as an asteroid hitting the Earth, caused these species mass extinction.
