“This is an S.O.S.” the Jonas Brothers are going on tour and making a stop in Connecticut.

Joe, Kevin and Nick Jonas announced the 35-date tour on social media Tuesday. Connecticut fans will be able to see the trio on Aug. 17 at Mohegan Sun in Uncasville. The tour was announced after the brothers planned to play two shows at Yankee Stadium on August 12 and 13. It will kick off at Yankee Stadium and make stops at major cities like Chicago, Las Vegas Los Angeles and Miami.

During the tour, the brothers will perform songs from five albums in one night: “Jonas Brothers,” “A Little Bit Longer,” “Lines, Vines, and Trying Times,” “Happiness Begins” and “The Album.” In March, the brothers also performed five shows at the Marquis Theatre in New York City, each focusing on a different album. 

The Jonas Brothers made their Connecticut debut opening for the Cheetah Girls at Chevrolet Theatre in Wallingford in 2005. This will be the trio’s 16th Connecticut performance.

H.S. Baseball/Softball: Holy Redeemer baseball increases first-place lead

May 3—WILKES-BARRE — Holy Redeemer pitcher Dino DiMauro accomplished two things Tuesday afternoon.

First, he helped the Royals tighten their grip on first place in Division 2 of Wyoming Valley Conference baseball. Secondly, he got the fans out of the frigid weather rather quickly.

DiMauro threw a two-hitter as Redeemer shut out Nanticoke Area 3-0 on a 51-degree cloudy day at Gibby Field.

Before a crowd with many in heavy coats and some with blankets, Redeemer improved to 8-1 in the division and 11-3 overall with a victory that took only 95 minutes. Nanticoke Area (5-3, 8-7) dropped from second place to third, switching spots with idle Lake-Lehman (6-3, 7-6). The teams play 12 divisional games.

“From last year going like 5-14 to starting with a nine-game win streak, it feels really good,” DiMauro said. “Everyone’s hopes are high.”

Redeemer last won a divisional title in 2016.

DiMauro gave up a one-out single to right to Derek Shemanski in the third inning, but came back with two of his five strikeouts. Lucas Stachowiak opened the Nanticoke Area fifth with an infield single. The Trojans eventually ended up with a first-and-third situation with two outs, but Redeemer catcher Kayden Stevenson threw out a runner trying to steal to end the threat.

Nanticoke had one base runner the final two innings who was erased in a rundown.

“(DiMauro) mixes it up really well,” Redeemer coach Ryan Knowles said. “He’s our veteran, our leader, our captain. He is very confident out there. He threw a great game today.”

Redeemer took a 2-0 lead in the fourth. Luke Kopec opened the inning by bouncing a double down the left-field line. He moved to third on a flyout to right. KJ Gryboski then walked and took second on the first pitch to DJ McDermott. McDermott lined an RBI single to center and Gryboski later…

Ontario commits $1M to Chippewas of the Thames for mental health & addictions support

Ontario announced $1 million in funding for mental health and addictions supports to Chippewas of the Thames First Nation Thursday with the long-term goal of building two new treatment facilities for the area’s three Indigenous communities to use.

The move is part of larger efforts to address rising rates of illegal drugs and human trafficking through the development of a community wellness and mental health strategy.

“We all know that there are huge gaps in accessing those types of services from detox to treatment,” said chief Jacqueline French.

“We can’t continue down this road at this rate or we’ll lose generations,” French said, noting there have been multiple overdoses in the community and “huge” waiting lists for addictions treatment.

“It’s just next to impossible to access those services outside of our community,” she said. “There is definitely a need for more because of the increase of what we’re seeing happening in our community.”

‘We can’t fix this problem by ourselves’

MPP Michael Tibollo, Ontario’s associate minister of mental health and addictions, came to the First Nation for the announcement.

“When it comes to finding an effective mental health care system for Indigenous peoples, there are far too many barriers to access and culturally safe options are few for people from Indigenous communities, and this is something that we must change,” said Tibollo.

Bartlesville Radio » News » Delaware Tribe Honors MMIW, MMIP

A somber ceremony was held Friday afternoon at the Delaware Tribal Complex to remember and honor Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW), and Missing and Murdered Indigenous Persons (MMIP).

 

About 40 people attended the event, wearing red — some with a red handprint painted over their mouths — a symbol to remember Native American voices who have been silenced.

 

 

Just before an honor walk around the pond, some who gathered held pictures of missing or murdered relatives and friends. They told the crowd about  their honored person, with many tears shed.

 

The Delaware Tribe offers several resources for families that experience domestic violence, including protection order services that the tribe will offer to anyone — Native and Non-Native included.

 

Below is a photo gallery from Friday’s event.

Housatonic River

Housatonic River is a 149-mile-long river that flows from the southern to southeastern direction through the western parts of the US States of Massachusetts and Connecticut. Originating from the Berkshire Mountains close to the city of Pittsfield in Massachusetts, the Housatonic River finally drains into the Long Island Sound between the cities of Stratford and Milford in Connecticut. The name “Housatonic” has been derived from the native Mohican phrase “usi-a-di-en-uk,” which means “beyond the mountain place.” Besides being used for whitewater paddling and fly fishing, the waters of the Housatonic River have been harnessed over the years to generate hydroelectric power for the textiles, paper, and iron industries.  

Course Of The Housatonic River

Housatonic River rapids and rocks at Gaylordsville, ConnecticutHousatonic River at Gaylordsville, Connecticut.

The Housatonic River begins its journey in far southwestern Massachusetts, where the mainstream is formed by the confluence of the East and West Branches of the Housatonic River close to the city of Pittsfield. The 17-mile-long East Branch of the Housatonic River, which rises at Muddy Pond, drops about 480 ft before meeting with the West Branch of the Housatonic River. The 5-mile-long West Branch also drops about 140 ft before it meets the East Branch. The joining of the East and West Branches forms the headwaters of the Housatonic River. The river then flows in a southerly direction through the Berkshire Mountains into western Connecticut.

In Connecticut, five dams, including the Derby Dam, Bulls Bridge, Falls Village, Shepaug Dam, and Stevenson Dam Hydroelectric Plant, impound the Housatonic River. Of these dams, the Derby, Shepaug, and Stevenson Dams form many lakes, such as Lake Housatonic, Lake Lillinonah, and Lake Zoar. Immediately south of the Bulls Bridge power station, waters of the Housatonic River…
