Ocean Casino Resort in Atlantic City, N.J. (Courtesy of Ocean Casino Resort) (Courtesy of Ocean Casino Resort)ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - What's an ocean without a beach?One Atlantic City casino that takes its name from the sea doesn't want to find out, and so it's spending up to $700,000 of its own money to rebuild a badly eroded beach in front of it.The Ocean Casino Resort began the work Wednesday, and plans to have a new 110-foot-wide beach open for Memorial Day weekend.

Chronic erosion near the casino has reduced the beach to just 5 to 8 feet (1.5 to 2.4 meters) wide in places.Bill Callahan, the casino's general manager, said Ocean can't wait for the next government-funded beach replenishment project, which could take another year or two.Callahan and several casino officials were on their daily coffee walk one day last fall when they looked out the window — and saw very little sand between the Boardwalk and the ocean.Callahan feared there soon would be no beach."That would be a horrible guest experience.

It's like, ‘Come to an unbelievable $2.5 billion resort and not have a beach.’ We just couldn't have that," he said.So the casino set about securing the many state and federal permits necessary to do the work on its own.Stephen Rochette, a spokesman for the U.S.

Army Corps of Engineers, said it is unusual but not unheard-of for private parties to carry out their own beach replenishment projects.

WASHINGTON - President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy will meet face to face Monday after a weekend of on again, off again negotiations over raising the nation's debt ceiling and mere days before the government could reach a "hard deadline" and run out of cash to pay its bills.The two sides are working to reach a budget compromise before June 1, when Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has said the country could default.McCarthy and Republicans are insisting on spending cuts in exchange for raising the debt limit. Biden has come to the negotiating table after balking for months but says the GOP lawmakers will have to back off their "extreme positions."On Sunday evening, negotiators met again and appeared to be narrowing on a 2024 budget year cap that could resolve the standoff.

Zelenskyy hints new Canadian aid package for Ukraine is coming soon

Volodymyr Zelenskyy says Canada and Ukraine are working on a new package to help Kyiv fight off Russia.Zelenskyy made the comments on the sidelines of the G7 Summit in Hiroshima, Japan, when asked by Global News if Canada had done enough in recent months to support the Ukrainian war effort.“I would like you to understand that we have powerful relations with Canada,” said Zelenskyy.“We are working on something … which maybe, publicly cannot be commented (on).”Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Zelenskyy had met earlier in the day and Canada did not announce any new weapons or aid for Ukraine after they spoke.That’s in contrast to allies like the United States, who announced a US$375 million package for Ukraine, which included new ammunition, artillery and armoured vehicles.On Thursday, Canada announced additional sanctions on Russian individuals and businesses.

Do you need a financial planner? What to know before seeking money advice

financial planner or advisor to guide decisions on everything from investments to getting out of debt.But as complicated as planning your own finances can be, experts say it’s no simple task getting the right help, either.“There’s still a lot of ambiguity, I find, with financial advisors in Canada to figure out what the heck they do,” says Jason Heath, managing director of Objective Financial Partners.Heath, who is a certified financial planner (CFP), and other experts also say relying on outside advice might not be right for every household budget when the costs of financial planning itself are factored in.Here’s how to decide if a financial planner is right for you, and how to navigate the market to find the right fit.There are many different types of financial guidance you can get, ranging from straightforward advice to hands-on management of your investments.But the first distinction to be made is the difference between a financial advisor and a financial planner.The Financial Consumer Agency of Canada (FCAC) differentiates the more general financial advisors, which could encompass anything from a bank employee to a stock broker to an insurance agent, from the more specific financial planner, which is a type of advisor who helps you make a plan for your long-term savings goals.

Republican Gov.

2 New Jersey schools leave amateur performance of 'School of Rock' due to alleged inappropriate language

HADDON, N.J. - An amateur performance of School of Rock sparked some controversy at two New Jersey elementary schools after teachers made their students leave the theater due to coarse language. Over 150 fifth grade and third grade students, and accompanying staff and chaperons, from Hartford Upper Elementary School and Kellman Brown Academy left a midday performance at the Ritz Theater in Haddon Township.Kelly Hill chaperoned the field trip for her fifth grade daughter, and said while there was some language that may have been inappropriate, she was caught off-guard by the teachers decision. "I really didn't understand what was going on, I just saw one of the teachers get the kids in the front row and have them all stand up and walk out," Hill said. MORE LOCAL HEADLINES"It was enough where I thought to myself like ‘the school is going to get some phone calls later' but I didn't think we would leave because of it."The Ritz Theater Company claims it spoke with both schools before the Wednesday performance and explained that the show contains occasional strong language. The theater posted about the incident on their Facebook page and called the walk-out "a disservice to the cast and crew who all took the time to perform the show."Hill returned to the Ritz Theater with her daughter on Friday night to watch the performance in-full.
