Stop scratching on holidays
Published: June 1, 2012



Off Track Betting in New York State has been racing into a crisis called shrinking revenue. Some people have spitballed a solution: Don’t close on holidays.
New York State Racing Law bars racing on Christmas, Easter and Palm Sunday, and the state has ruled OTBs can’t handle action on those days, even though they could easily broadcast races from out of state.
“You should be able to bet whenever you want,” said Jackson Leeds, a Nassau OTB employee who makes an occasional bet. He added some irrefutable logic: “How is the business going to make money if you’re not open to take people’s bets?”
Elias Tsekerides, president of the Federation of Hellenic Societies of Greater New York, said OTB is open on Greek Orthodox Easter and Palm Sunday.
“I don’t want discrimination,” Tsekerides said. “They close for the Catholics, but open for the Greek Orthodox? It’s either open for all or not open.”
OTB officials have said they lose millions by closing on Palm Sunday alone, with tracks such as Gulfstream, Santa Anita, Turf Paradise and Hawthorne running.
One option: OTBs could just stay open and face the consequences. New York City OTB did just that back in 2003. The handle was about $1.5 million – and OTB was fined $5,000.
Easy money.

Starting this week, public schools in Florida will be required to display signs with the official state motto — “In God We Trust.”
The phrase will be posted in “a conspicuous place” after being endorsed by Democratic Rep. Kimberly Daniels, who is the leader of a Christian ministry, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
Gov. Rick Scott signed a bill back in March, requiring “each district school board” to display it inside “all of the schools of the district and in each building used by the district school board.”
“This motto is inscribed on the halls of this great capitol and inked on our currency, and it should be displayed so that our children will be exposed and educated on this great motto, which is a part of this country’s foundation,” Daniels told House committee members while pushing the bill.
“Something so great should not be hidden,” she said.
While “In God We Trust” has been part of Florida’s state seal since 1868 and on the state flag since 1900, it has only been the state motto since 2006. The previous motto was “In God is our Trust.”
