House leaders who are in favor of the bill estimate that the casinos and slots it proposes will create 15,000 jobs for Bay State-ers.

In eighth grade, one classmate confessed in an English essay that he, too, was harboring a secret first name that he chose not to use. Even Zane Grey dropped his real first name—Pearl—in favor of his middle name...
