UFC 145 JONES vs. Evans is one of the most anticipated MMA cards of 2012 and might only be surpassed for the year in terms of buzz by the upcoming June rematch between the world’s greatest fighter Anderson Silva and his constant foil, Chael Sonnen.
Jones vs. Evans is in no short supply of drama in its own right. With a long history as teammates, a very public falling out and subsequent bad blood, UFC Light Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones has ample motivation to protect his title from the former Champ in Rashad Evans.
The exciting lineup of fights also includes an intriguing heavyweight match between Brendan Schaub and Ben Rothwell, a meaningful bout for the title picture in the Welterweight division between Rory MacDonald and Che Mills, as well as a return to the fold bout for former WEC Bantamweight Champ (and recent UFC pariah) Miguel Torres.
Former TUF contestants Matt Brown and Mac Danzig also make return appearances against Stephen Thompson and Efrain Escudero, respectively. Don’t miss another stacked UFC Pay Per View Card and one of the most significant title bouts of 2012 when UFC 145 goes live this Saturday. Find all your relevant UFC Fight Party viewing information below the video preview, and we’ll see you at your favorite Station Casinos location!

LAS VEGAS – Following a successful trial that linked Pai Gow progressive jackpots at gaming tables at Sunset Station and Red Rock Resort, the progressive expanded February 1 to include all 10 Station Casinos and Fiesta properties including Aliante Station, Boulder Station, Fiesta Henderson, Fiesta Rancho, Green Valley Ranch resort, Palace Station, Red Rock Resort, Santa Fe Station, Sunset Station and Texas Station. The additional properties give Station Casinos the largest multi-property linked Pai Gow progressive in Southern Nevada, which results in higher jackpots.
7-Card Straight Flush! Edward hit the Progressive jackpot for $200,922 a mere 6 hours after launch at Palace Station.
The expansion of the program means jackpots will start higher, grow faster and players will hit more often with more than 30 tables that are linked company-wide. The beginning jackpot after all properties connected was more than $200,000. Less than seven hours after the progressive was linked to Palace Station, which is coincidentally the final property to be connected, a Virginia man hit that progressive jackpot with a 7-card straight-flush that included a joker. With any regular bet, players become eligible for the progressive with a side bet of only $1. The progressive is won with a seven card straight-flush with or without a joker. The jackpot is once again over $200,000 as of the release date.
Players at Station Casinos can also win 10% of the progressive jackpot with a winning hand of five aces. The initial linked Pai Gow progressive involving Sunset Station and Red Rock Resort was a pilot performed in partnership with ShuffleMaster that began in October. As a result of the program’s success and popularity, Station Casinos expanded it to 10 properties allowing the opportunity for greater jackpots at more locations throughout the Valley.
In late Febraury, Eric was second to hit the jackpot for over $200,000. Again at Palace Station. There's Steve again ... One Dollar!

THE DAYS ARE shrinking, the leaves are turning and the holiday season is beginning its chaotic approach. With full days of work, family, school, kids and everything else we try to fit into our schedule, who has time for skin care? Fortunately, we are masters at multi-tasking, and skin care is no different. Fall and winter can be unforgiving on our complexion, but with a few essential steps, your skin will survive the season with time left over to roast some chestnuts over the fire.
I hear it all day long:
Here’s the skinny on the elusive science of cell turnover:
The superficial layer of skin called the epidermis is essentially … dead. Without proper shedding of the skin, our moisturizers and anti-aging products cannot work effectively. In addition, the skin becomes congested with oil and dead skin cells resulting in blackheads, whiteheads, blemishes and lackluster skin.

Exfoliants are extremely effective agents of radiance that are derived from natural ingredients. It is easier than ever to incorporate these polishing pals into your routine. The shady season is the perfect time to try professional treatments to obtain a glow that will make you sparkle in time for the holiday party.
Glycolic Peel: A 30% acid, derived from sugar, that packs a punch and will soften fine lines, reduce sun damage and stimulate collagen production. (Best done in a series of 4-6 sessions)
Mircodermabrasion: You are sure to sparkle from this crystal-based treatment. Best for dry, sun- damaged, and aging skin types. (Best done in a series of 6)
Radiance: Cinnamon and fruit acids coupled with firming agents leave the skin with a warm youthful glow.

The SC Blog received the following email from our Team Members at Aliante Station. Nice story we thought we would share:
Cynthia has battled with hydrocephalus and spina bifida that has bounded her to a wheelchair for all her life. She is a very sweet and shy young lady. Her father is not in the picture and her mother and her live very simply. When wish granters went to interview Cynthia she went through the different wish options. She took her time and right before the wish granters were leaving (thinking she just wasn’t sure what she wanted) very softly said she really wanted a Quinceanera party. Cynthia was so excited we are able to make her wish come true. Cynthia also wanted to be able to dance a traditional dance at her quince and she was so excited when we found a dance studio that will be helping her choreograph a dance especially for her big day. Cynthia can’t wait for her special day!!! Cynthia and her mother are both very kind and sincere people and they are so excited and grateful for this wish.
The Aliante Catering department will be hosting Cynthia’s Quinceanera.

THE GRAND CAFE, the best 24-hour dining option in Las Vegas, is opening, or should we say reopening on Dec. 27 at Palace Station.
We could say a lot about how excited we are to have the Grand Café back at Palace – as well as Sunset Station, Boulder Station, Texas Station and Santa Fe Station in the coming months – but instead we’ll let Larry Neely, the Director of Food & Beverage at Palace, be our champion.
Once again, that’s the grand reopening of the Grand Café on Dec. 27, 2010 at Palace Station. Please join us!
Here Larry shows a few of the renovations right before opening and talks about staff training. The end of the video is the best part when the team cheers!
Larry shows a few menu items including a hearty looking Chicken Fried Steak and a refreshing non-alcoholic Bloody Mary.
Follow Larry as he enters the kitchen at the Grand Café.
