Bet Eightthirtyone beats the rainclouds – and feature opponents

WILKES-BARRE, PA – Bet Eightthirtyone (Betting Line) stormed home in the deep Pocono Pike to win the $13,000 harness racing pacing feature on Tuesday afternoon (Aug. 2) at The Downs at Mohegan Sun Pocono in 1:55.1.

The race was conducted as a downpour came through the area; though the rain soon stopped, this would be the last event before the track was rerated from “fast” to “sloppy.”

Marcus Miller got the victorious gelding away third as Mister David C set the pace ahead of favored Stormy Beach, with second choice Letmecallyouback advancing via the always-tough tuck-then-first-over route and Ripplesonthebeach right on his back.

As they turned for home, Stormy Beach ducked to the inside of the pacesetter, but it soon became clear that the horse with the most pace was the one right behind him, as Bet Eightthirtyone gave a sharp burst when shown inside clearance and reached the wire three-quarters of a length ahead of Ripplesonthebeach, the only other horse moving with real velocity late.

BET EIGHTTHIRTYONE REPLAY

Marcus Miller’s father Erv trains the winner, who notched his first success of the season while missing his lifetime best by only a tick for owner D R Van Witzenburg. The gelding is three-for-18 lifetime with $32,584 in earnings.

The sky was sunny, though the track remained sloppy, by the time that No Drama Please (Trixton) accounted for the $12,500 co-featured trot, brushing to the lead in front of the stands and keeping control for a 1:55 victory.

Tom Fanning trains the gelding, now a winner of $396,838, for owner Joseph Smith. For driver George Napolitano Jr., the victory was one of four on the day.

In this exhilarating solo piece, Madeline echoes a journey to England braved by Native ancestors in the 1700s following treatise betrayals – and forces us to consider what it means to belong in an increasingly globalized world.

The Somerville Times Historical Fact of the Week – August 3

Eagle Feathers #259 – Busby

By Bob (Monty) Doherty

William Berkeley Enos was born in Los Angeles on November 29, 1895, to thespian parents. His father was an actor, and his mother was an actress and choreographer. Upon his father’s death, he was placed in boarding schools, the longest being a five-year run at the Mohegan Lake Military Academy in Peekskill, New York. After graduation, he worked at a shoe company for three years in Athol, Massachusetts.

In 1917 with America in World War I, his call to serve was instilled by his Mohegan Lake training, and he enlisted in the Army at Fort Banks in Winthrop, Massachusetts, before going to France. As a young Lieutenant, he was attached to the 312th Field Artillery Battalion, composed of six batteries and 1,200 men. He supervised close order allied drills and formations for French and American soldiers.

He was a natural at this and masterfully exercised troops in circles, columns, grids, and parades with once commanding a trick drill with 1,200 soldiers in silent maneuvers. Volunteering as an Army Air Corps spotter, he observed and reported panoramic troop movements and fighting patterns from high elevations. The knowledge he gained from this would serve him well in his after-military life.

Vaudeville in America was an early 20th century entertainment where popular specialty acts, such as comedy, slapstick, pantomime, and song and dance acts were featured. In 1915, vaudeville shows at the Somerville Theatre were the stock trade of the burgeoning Somerville Players and other song and dance troopers.

One of the players who danced across her floor was Ray Bolger who was remembered for his roles in Babes in Toyland, April in Paris, The Great Ziegfeld and most of all as the…

Improv and Voice Actor Phil LaMarr Comes to Terrificon At Mohegan Sun

Terrificon is returning to the Mohegan Sun Expo Center in Uncasville on July 29, 30 and 31 and will feature comic book artists and writers, Q&A sessions, a costume contest for cosplayers, over 350 comic, toy and art vendors — even a kid-friendly convention within the convention.

Also appearing is Phil LaMarr, a cast member on the Fox sketch comedy series Mad TV, and the voice and personality behind a number of animated characters.

Ahead of his appearance, LaMarr talked to CT Examiner about his connection to Connecticut, his path from improv to voice acting, and how the two relate, and his current involvement in a Sherlock Holmes series.

RD: When you attended Yale, you helped found the improv comedy group Purple Crayon which is still in operation today. What inspired you to get into improv? Was it Saturday Night Live, Monty Python, stand-up comedy, or something else?

PL: Actually, Yale was my introduction to improv. A friend of mine, Eric Berg, was from Chicago, we did plays together and then one summer he was in Chicago taking classes at Second City and with Del Close at ImprovOlympic. Then he came back that fall saying “Hey guys! You guys wanna do some improv?!!!” and we were all like “Um…what? Ok, sure. Why not?”. This little grouping of theater pals turned into a decades-long running institution and not only did it help change the entertainment world at the university, it definitely changed all of us. Being in your early 20s and being introduced to the philosophy of improv shows that life is about collaboration and agreement, that’s how you achieve things.

If you do that together, you can make up amazing stuff of your own without ever having to think it through and that just blew my mind. The interesting thing…

Shawn Mendes cancels Mohegan Sun show and tour due to mental health

“When You’re Gone” singer Shawn Mendes announced on social media July 27 that he has canceled the remainder the “Wonder World Tour” shows, including his already-postponed date at Mohegan Sun.

The news comes after Mendes announced on July 8 that he was postponing shows to focus on his mental health, one of which was his show at the casino on July 29.

“As you guys know, I had to postpone the past few weeks of shows since I wasn’t totally prepared for the toll that being back on the road would take on me,” he said on social media post. “I started this tour excited to finally get back to playing live after a long break due to the pandemic, but the reality is I was not at all ready for how difficult touring would be after this time away.”

The decision to cancel the tour came after speaking with his team and a group of health professionals. He said it became clear to him to take more time to “ground” himself and come back “stronger than ever.”

He made sure to reassure fans that this does not mean he will stop making music and thanked fans for their support and “sticking by me on this journey.”

“I know you all have been waiting so long to see these shows, and it breaks my heart to tell you this but I promise I will be back as soon as I’ve taken the right time to heal.”

In his July post, the pop star said he has been touring since he was 15 and said it has always been difficult for him to be away from friends and family.

The “Wonder Tour” started off in Portland, Ore.,…
