The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation announced that a team of students from Lenape Technical School in Ford City, Armstrong County, has been selected as the statewide winner for the 2022-2023 Innovations Challenge.
Mentored by Jason Zimmerman, a teacher at Lenape Tech, team members include Elijah Mumau and Robert John. The team’s proposed solution to this year’s challenge, addressing the shortage of truck parking along Pennsylvania’s critical cargo arteries, included a plan for affordable, eco-friendly, and innovative rest stops called Eco-Stops. To offset cost and minimize their environmental impacts, Eco-Stops would be constructed using a recycled asphalt lot and concrete printed facilities and be powered via solar panels. The team’s presentation included an example location, cost breakdown, and a plan for adding EV charging options.
“It’s incredible to see the next generation of problem solvers at work trying to address a real transportation issue that we are currently facing,” said PennDOT Secretary Mike Carroll. “These young minds have been hard at work, and it’s encouraging to see their commitment to working on these issues. The future is in good hands.”
Nine regional winners were selected earlier this year and invited to present their solutions to the PennDOT acting secretary and a panel of judges in Harrisburg last month to determine the statewide winner. For this year’s challenge, the Associated Pennsylvania Constructors (APC) and the American Council of Engineering Companies of PA (ACEC/PA) will provide a combined total award of $4,000 to the statewide winning team.
On Thursday, the provincial government announced $1 million in funding to address mental health and addiction issues towards First Nations.
This funding will allow for the development of two buildings within the Chippewas of the Thames First Nation that will offer mental health and addiction services, according to Chief Jacqueline French.
“There are big issues in our community that we can no longer ignore,” French said. “We’ve had multiple youth overdoses in our community. We said we want to continue down this road at this rate or we will lose generations.”
First Nations Council is working on a community wellness strategy, that requires community and external partnerships to work together to address issues stemming from drug trafficking to mental health.
Ontario has provided $33 million for 100 mental health and addiction supports and programs from 2022-2023, to meet the rising need for services across Ontario.
“For generations, Indigenous communities and elders have taught the importance of community-based, culturally-informed approaches to healing and wellness. It is critical that responses to challenges faced by Indigenous partners are anchored in partnership and collaboration,” said Provincial Associate Minister of Mental Health, Michael Tibollo.
“Today marks another milestone in those partnerships; investing in connecting Indigenous communities to Indigenous land-based healing, health services, and upgraded healing centres and facilities,” he said.
Myeengun Henry, who serves as a councillor for Chippewas of the Thames First Nation, spoke to their concerns over a rise in drugs and crime within the three communities.
“We know when there’s a crisis in one nation and we all come together and it becomes a part of who we are to help each other,” said Henry.
Following speeches, Chief Todd Cornelius of Oneida Nation of the Thames, Chief Roger Thomas of the Munsee-Delaware…

“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.

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…
