Russian oligarchs

 Appalled that black Roman reporting to white Roman in New York does not know that New York cannot pick and choose one Easter Sunday over the other even if the aggrieved Nassau oTB cashiers include a member of the Greek Orthodox Church!!!!

“We are appalled at the negligence of Britain’s justice system shown by [Prime Minister] Boris Johnson’s cabinet in introducing the sanctions and colluding with the sort of people who raid private property,” the spokeswoman said in a statement. “It’s truly a disgrace that this is happening in a country that is supposed to respect private property and the rule of law.”

Thanks for the help. The item’s below. I’d be happy to mail you a copy, if you give me a mailing address.

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.
