Connecticut Secretary of State Denise Merrill’s website indicates that igaming regulations are in full effect. The “regulation making record” pertains to online casino gaming, retail and online sports wagering, fantasy contests, keno, and the online sale of lottery tickets. And included in the online casino gaming is peer-to-peer gaming, which is online poker.

What this means is that the regulatory structure for everything from licensing to responsible gambling protocols is done. The governor and state legislature approved them.

The next step is for the action to begin. Some of the work for sports betting operators has already been done, and land-based operators appear ready to launch.

It seems that only one approval is still pending. The United States Government’s Bureau of Indian Affairs, which is a part of the US Department of the Interior, must approve the updated compacts with the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut and Mashantucket Pequot Tribe.

It’s almost there…

Regulations Done

Thus far, the process has been fairly quick, especially by the standards set by other states and their igaming processes to date. Connecticut had been discussing online gaming and sports betting legalization for years, but the legislature finally approved a bill this year. And when Connecticut Governor Ned Lamont signed it into law on May 27, 2021, the biggest hurdles were in the past.

The next move was up to Connecticut Secretary of State Denise Merrill’s office. Under her oversight, the state’s Department of Consumer Protections and Commissioner Michelle Seagull set about drafting emergency regulations for the new industry. State-regulated online gaming, sports betting, fantasy sports, keno, and online lottery ticket sales…

No Comments on The preseason boys soccer Mean 15

Basically, you’ve got to start somewhere. Most teams had their season shortened by the coronavirus pandemic last year, some have lost their top players to MLS Next, and there’s only so much you can glean from gossip and Summer League results. Chances are, there will be all kinds of turnover in the Mean 15, especially early in the season.

But it’s a jumping off point. And you’ve got to start somewhere.

40th annual Nanticoke Indian Powwow aims to spread togetherness and friendship

The 40th annual Nanticoke Indian Powwow went on this weekend in Millsboro.

Jerry Habraken / The News Journal

Last year’s Nanticoke Indian Powwow was canceled due to COVID-19, but the 42nd annual event is back this weekend.

For the first time, the powwow will be held at Hudson Fields in Milton, relocating from a remote site near Oak Orchard.

Chief Natosha Norwood Carmine said moving the powwow to Hudson Fields will make it more accessible to the thousands of attendees it attracts every year.

The event features food, vendors, drumming and dance sessions. Participants don traditional regalia and Native American arts and crafts are available for purchase.

“It’s a time the Nanticoke Tribe, or any tribal community celebrates heritage, comes together as a renewing and refreshing of our spirits, remembers our ancestors,” said Carmine. “We’re also teaching our children our culture and our traditions and sharing them with the public at large.”

When is it?

This year’s event is set for 4-8 p.m. Friday, Sept. 10; 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 11; and 10 a.m.-7 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 12.

Tickets are $8 for adults, $5 for those ages 11-17 and free for kids 10 and under.

Youth behavioral facility claims legal victory but state still plans to ‘move forward’ with license removal process

No Comments on Youth behavioral facility claims legal victory but state still plans to ‘move forward’ with license removal process

An Ashland County judge tossed out a lawsuit from Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost against Mohican Young Star Academy

PERRYSVILLE, Ohio — A youth behavioral facility in northern Ohio has won a legal fight against the Ohio Attorney General’s Office, but the state agency that licenses Mohican Young Star Academy says it still plans to “move forward” with the process that would revoke the facility’s license in wake of problems there.

In March, Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost’s office sued Mohican Young Star Academy claiming it was using “illegal and dangerous restraints” against the boys in its care. The facility’s owner and operator denied the allegations.

Attorneys for Yost’s office presented testimony from a former staff member, state inspectors and video of children who claimed they were injured during restraint holds inside the facility.

But an Ashland County judge tossed out the lawsuit.

And just last week, a state appeals court ruled in favor of the facility claiming the state “failed to present evidence” that the conditions at the facility “present a substantial risk of physical or mental harm to the residents…” and that the state failed to prove there were no other legal remedies available besides the state’s request to install a new operator.

Despite the legal ruling, a spokesman for the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services said the state still plans to “move forward” with the process to strip the facility of its license citing a pattern of recurring events – including children who claim they were injured during restraints among other issues.

10 Investigates’ own investigation and review of police records and videos, incident reports submitted to the state and other interviews has uncovered a persistent pattern of problems at the facility including:
