From the Editor's Desk

Trick Yourself into Breaking a Bad Habit

As we reviewed what separated the successful few from the rest, we found a quirky distinction: The successful people talked about themselves the way an experimental psychologist might refer to a cherished lab rat. For example, a shy manager with executive aspirations talked about how he took himself to the employee cafeteria three times a week to eat lunch with a complete stranger. Tickling with anxiety, he stripped himself of his smart phone before exiting his office — knowing that if it was with him, he would retreat to it. He knew that if he simply ensconced himself in these circumstances, he would connect with new people — a habit and skill he wanted to cultivate.

Business Highlights: Job gains remain resilient in August; Walgreens CEO exits
NEW YORK (AP) — An association that lobbies for health care facilities says President Joe Biden’s decision to require nursing homes to comply with federal rules on staffing levels will cost them billions of dollars. The American Health Care Association calls the staffing proposal “unrealistic” and says it’ll worsen existing problems. The government says most of the 15,000 U.S. nursing homes would have to add staffers and keep a registered nurse on duty 24 hours a day. The move has been sought for decades by older adults and those with disabilities. But the proposed staffing minimums announced Friday are lower than many advocates had hoped. The nursing home industry opposes staffing minimums. ___ The S&P 500 rose 8.11 points, or 0.2%, to 4,515.77. The Dow Jones Industrial Average rose 115.80 points, or 0.3%, to 34,837.71. The Nasdaq composite fell 3.15 points, less than 0.1%, to 14,031.81. The Russell 2000 index of smaller companies rose 21.15 points, or 1.1%, to 1,920.83

Ivy League is full of nuance for a variety of issues, and is often defined as the premier grouping of academic institutions in the country, and maybe anywhere.

We already have 36-holes of championship golf right across the street, and the Great Wolf Lodge at Mashantucket is another major development that's well underway, which includes over 500 hotel rooms, a massive 90,000 square foot indoor waterpark, a 60,000 square foot family entertainment center, meeting space and much more. When that location opens, I think you're really going to start to see our development process accelerate at an even faster rate than we're going. We already have plans for more restaurants, more gaming, more non-gaming amenities and activities here on property over the next several years, and it's exciting to know we have all those things coming.
