25, 2016, at 11:33 a.m. BANGOR, Maine Maine set a new high-water mark in 2015 for casino revenue despite another small dip in business at the states original gambling facility in Bangor. Hollywood Casino brought in $53.2 million in net revenue in 2015, a 2 percent decrease from the previous year, according to financial information provided to the Maine Gambling Control Board . It was the second straight year the Bangor casinos revenue declined. Its 2014 performance was slightly down from 2013, which was the first full year of operation for its only competitor in the state Oxford Casino. We feel good about our performance last year, Hollywood Casino manager Jose Flores said last week. The casino was able to recover from a difficult first quarter, which Flores attributed to difficult travel conditions during a tough winter. He said the casino continues to look for new entertainment opportunities, such as live music performances, to bring people in year round, and for new ways to reach out to new customers. Were looking forward to a strong tourism year here in Eastern Maine, and will be continuing to strive for a quality entertainment experience for every customer that walks through our doors, Flores said.

Yet mostly I was a whole lot poorer when I left! And on the occasional time when I managed to leave victorious over the odds, the glow of victory was short-lived. I would invariably take my winnings back to the arcades later the same day. So my heart goes out to fellow Brits who are experiencing such misery and even risking their marriages because of that urge to have a flutter as we euphemistically call games of chance in Britain. Looking back from the freedom Ive since found, I hope the British government will find ways to reduce opportunities to gamble, and I pray that individuals will find their own route out of such circumstances, as I finally did. What happened in my case was someone introduced me to a book that has since become a constant companion. It was Mary Baker Eddys Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures, a deeply healing book that introduced me to a love of the Bibles profound message of comfort and hope. I was blown away to read something overtly spiritual that made practical sense. It clarified spiritual moments Id previously experienced that had a practical impact on my life. It showed me that such glimpses of spiritual awareness should and would bring actual healing. I wanted to beat the odds that claim addiction is a problem that can only be managed and never defeated.

What the Republicans are doing is irresponsible and cruel." Warren is taking the political long view. She is an aggressive fundraiser, and through her political action committee PAC for a Level Playing Field she has doled out hundreds of thousands of dollars in the past two years to Democratic candidates and committees in the hope of strengthening the party's hand in future elections. "The Democrat's agenda is the American people's agenda," she said. Warren won't say whether she is prepping for a possible 2020 run for president, although she has announced plans to run for re-election in 2018, making the case for a second term in part by again pointing to "Donald Trump and his team of billionaires, bigots, and Wall Street bankers" in an email to supporters. Massachusetts Republicans have labeled Warren a "hyperpartisan bully more interested in scoring political points than delivering actual results." But among voters in her home state where she remains popular, the reaction to Warren's spikes-up approach is more nuanced. "I'm just tired of all the fighting," said Tim James, 26, of Newton, who works in macroeconomics. "I don't agree with a lot of the things that Trump had to say ... but we've had about eight years or so of gridlock in Washington, and I think that it's important for us to try to put some of the more divisive rhetoric to the side." Jay Fiset, a 30-year-old chef from Somerville, also said that while Trump and Warren may be political polar opposites, it's time to ditch the campaign. "They're going to butt heads," he said.

Bill Galvano, a Bradenton Republican, would broadly expand gaming in Florida by not only providing an opening for Genting, the Malaysian company, to build its long-sought resorts casino in Miami. It would also serve to prop up the declining horse and dog racing and jai-alai industries by allowing them to breathe life into their operations with slot machines. For the newest gaming option, fantasy sports, the state would impose regulations, and require a permit to operate. "It is a sincere effort to try to address these issues in a comprehensive way and balance private industry with maximizing revenues from the Seminole Tribe," Galvano told the Times/Herald. But, he added, the 112-page bill should also be seen as the state's opening offer. "It is also incumbent on the Seminole Tribe to negotiate back toward us," he said. "It's a much better process to be addressing all the issues comprehensively by putting the state's position out there and then having the Tribe respond.
