Mohegan withdraws Inspire Athens Hellinikon plans

Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment has withdrawn from plans for the creation of its Inspire Athens integrated resort and casino following a “comprehensive review”.

Connecticut headquartered developer and operator Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment has withdrawn its plans for the creation of its Inspire Athens integrated resort and casino following a “comprehensive review”.

Conducted against the backdrop created by COVID-19, the review into its operations and future commitments resulted in the company not pursuing the concession rights for the Athens Project. 

On September 12, 2021, Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment, through its unrestricted subsidiaries, transferred all of its equity ownership in the Athens Project to GEK Terna, previously the minority investor in the project. 

In the SEC Filings on the MGE’s official website, it stated the company and GEK Terna coordinated the equity transfer with the requisite government officials in Greece, including approval by the Hellenic Gaming Commission on October 22, 2021. 

The final transfer of the consortium’s reliance on the MGE’s technical and professional capacity and experience in the development and operation of integrated resort casinos remains pending, along with other administrative procedures for final governmental and regulatory review.

The news of the withdrawal comes just over a year after Mohegan Gaming & Entertainment expressed its excitement on its Inspire Athens integrated resort and casino launch, which it noted would launch a new era of tourism and economic growth for Greece and Southeast Europe. 

The Inspire Athens development was slated to create in excess of 7,000 jobs for the region during and after construction, including direct, indirect and induced.

Upon completion the firm expected an increase of at least ten per cent in…

 			 				 One of the dining areas in Giuseppe’s Rstaurant in Nanticoke that has been purchased by Rob Friedman, who said he will re-name it Grico’s South.

One of the dining areas in Giuseppe’s Rstaurant in Nanticoke that has been purchased by Rob Friedman, who said he will re-name it Grico’s South.

NANTICOKE — Local restaurateur Rob Friedman, of Friedman Hospitality Group, has purchased his eighth restaurant — Giuseppe’s in Nanticoke and will rename the eatery Grico’s South.

Friedman said the restaurant is currently closed and he plans to have it reopened by Dec. 1.

“We are pleased to purchase this restaurant and serve the greater Nanticoke area,”Friedman said. “We will reopen under the name Grico’s South. Grico’s in Exeter has been around for more than 80 years and we plan to offer many of the items featured at Grico’s and also many of the favorites that have been offered at Giuseppe’s.”

Friedman said he has promoted Jared Kopetchne to the position of executive chef at Giuseppe’s. Kopetchne had been a sous chef at the Beaumont Inn in Dallas. He said Sheila Humphrey will be the general manager of the restaurant.

“It’s exciting to be able to offer opportunities for our sous chefs to become executive chefs,” Friedman said.

Friedman said Giuseppe’s will be open Tuesday through Saturday.

He said he purchased the restaurant from Steve and Adeline Smith, who Friedman said have decided to relocate.

“The Smiths approached me to tell me they were relocating and offered this opportunity,” Friedman said. “We are excited that the staff of Giuseppe’s — servers, back-servers and bartenders — have told us they are excited to work at…

Bygone Muncie: A local history primer to welcome Muncie’s new neighbors

Chris Flook  |  Special to The Star Press

I was delighted to see the first Afghan refugees arrive here a few weeks ago. This is an exciting, historic moment in Muncie’s history. To our new neighbors and to those yet to come, welcome to the Magic City!

There are a few important things to know about your new community. First and foremost, Pizza King is the local delicacy. Everywhere you will find giant Canada geese and they are subservient to no one. The trains will make you late to work. The White River is our greatest asset, but it doesn’t protect us from tornados. Residents are generally kind, but it’s best to avoid social media during elections.

“Chief Munsee” never existed. There’s much to do in Downtown Muncie. Our handsome parks are matched only by the splendor of the Greenways. Locals will complain about a “pothole problem” in Muncie, but our roads are just like every other place on this latitude in the Midwest. Nothing on Earth is more beautiful than a Muncie sunset. No matter what you read or what anyone tells you about Fishers and Carmel, they suck. Muncie is, hands down, the best city in Indiana.

From Afghanistan to Muncie: The area’s first new neighbor shares his story

Muncie, Indiana’s land

The ground on which you now live is Myaamiaki Native American land. It was stolen and colonized by some of our ancestors two hundred years ago. The Myaamiaki are one of several Indigenous nations with ancestral homelands in what is now Indiana. Our community was actually founded by the Lenape, another Native nation. The Lenape arrived along the White River as refugees in 1796, after being forced from their homeland back east. In 1818, some of our ancestors made them leave…

‘Indigenous identity and the land are inseparable’: Menominee Forest researcher to start podcast

Jasmine Neosh strolls through the Menominee Forest realizing that so much can be learned here about how native woods are supposed to be without many of the invasive plants from Europe.

These invasive plants pervade much of the woodlands in the country and foresters today are working to restore large swaths back to native environments partly through Indigenous land management techniques, such as prescribed burning.

It is work the Menominee have always practiced on a patch of land that was never taken by European settlers.

At the same time, the forest also provides a business for the tribe, supplying lumber in a sustainable way that has been used in many notable places, such as the Milwaukee Bucks basketball court and NCAA courts.

“Management of the forest was excellent, taking good care of the environment and making a profit,” Neosh, 32, who is a Menominee Nation citizen, said. “Most people think the area is wild. You can see the outlines (of the forest) from space. They think that Natives just left it alone. But we’ve tended to it like gardeners for the entire existence and we’re still doing that today. And as a result of that level of care and understanding that we’ve put into it, it’s incredibly healthy.”

Foresters from around the world come to the Menominee Forest to research Indigenous land techniques because the forest is one of the most pristine and healthy native timberlands in the country.

UN Security Council praises Iraq for ‘well-managed, peaceful’ election

LONDON: US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin III has ordered the military’s top commander for the Middle East to brief him on details of a 2019 airstrike that killed dozens of women and children in Syria, the Pentagon said.

Austin requested the briefing after allegations by the New York Times that top officers and civilian officials sought to conceal the casualties of the strike, said Pentagon spokesman John Kirby.

The 2019 strike, exposed by the NYT over the weekend, took place in the town of Baghuz, in Daesh’s last holdout before the end of its so-called caliphate.

A drone controller witnessed a jet drop a bomb on what the operator estimated to be 50 women and children, but the military has now admitted that 80 people were killed, dozens of them women and children.

“Who dropped that?” a confused analyst typed on a secure chat system being used by those monitoring the drone, two people who reviewed the chat log recalled. The NYT reported that another responded: “We just dropped on 50 women and children.”

Two more large bombs were dropped on the crowd, wiping out anyone who survived the initial blast.

It is one of the highest civilian casualty incidents in the international coalition’s war against Daesh, but it had never been publicly acknowledged by military officials.

Despite legal officers immediately reporting the incident up the chain of command, a thorough investigation into the bombing was never conducted.

Gen. Kenneth F. McKenzie Jr., head of US Central Command — which oversaw the air war in Syria — will “brief (Austin) more specifically on that particular airstrike” and its handling, the Pentagon said.

Kirby refused to comment on the strike in a press briefing. “I’m not going to relitigate a strike…

Ontario First Nations undertake new healing lodge and ‘whole-of-community approach’ to battling addictions

A new healing lodge to help First Nations people in southwestern Ontario deal with addiction problems is scheduled to open next spring at the Kettle & Stony Point First Nation on the southern shore of Lake Huron.

The lodge, with land-based activities operating alongside modern and traditional medical services, will replace a facility closed in 2016 at another First Nation in the area. Other efforts, including provision of materials to reduce dangers for drug users, have already started this fall, according to Kettle & Stony Point First Nation Chief Jason Henry.

The new lodge will enable those battling addiction to “reconnect with former knowledge that was taken away with residential schools and forced removal from our territories,” Henry tells Windspeaker.com. “We want to get people back in touch with hunting, fishing, basic land skills, and learning their culture and spirituality.”

Medical services are a vital part of the plan. “When you’re talking about interventions for opioid problems, you have to have that,” Henry explained. Permanent staff will be hired, with a focus on the medical side although social workers and “cultural staff” will be part of the mix.

Henry says chiefs from across the region have been working on securing funding and a new location for the healing lodge since it closed in 2016. The former lodge shut down after management conflicts ended its 18-year operation at the nearby Munsee-Delaware Nation, according to news reports at the time.

The new facility will be created in partnership with Atlohsa Healing Services of London, Ont., and will feature a mix of residential and day programs for First Nations people, on- or off-reserve. A possible location at the former Kettle Point Park is being considered.

Modular buildings will be erected at first for washrooms and a kitchen, with bricks and mortar possible in the future. However, Chief Henry emphasizes…

Indian mission school dedicated – 47abc

 

MILLSBORO, Del. – State representatives along with members from the Nanticoke Indian Tribe gathered at the Nanticoke Indian heritage center Monday morning to dedicate the building as a historical landmark

We’re told the center used to be a one-room school in the ’60s dedicated to educating Nanticoke Indian Tribe children. However, after it was closed it was used as a heritage and educational center.

The tribe has been working closely with the state to bring light to these historical landmarks that tell the Nanticoke’s story. Members of the tribe say it means a lot to continue to be recognized as an important part of Delaware’s history and culture. “They want to educate the public on how important their presence here after all these centuries meant and what they had to go through just to have their children educated,” says Steven Marz, Director of the state public archives and state archivist.

Meanwhile, Chief Natosha Norwood Carmine tells us, “It’s important to them to know that properly recognized by a marker place here on the property because it gives the meaning that is visible, it is tangible.” She adds, “I just think of our ancestors and if they’re looking down how proud they must be, our elders who couldn’t be here because of the weather. I know they’ll look up and see this on the channels that they see that they’ll be proud and pleased that we were able to accomplish this.”

Chief Carmine also tells 47 ABC, now that the building has been dedicated, tribe members want to build onto it and hold more events for tribe members and community members to continue educating them on their culture and history.
