News: The last teen to be released from the Connecticu­t Juvenile Training School before the locked facility for delinquent boys closed last week was a 16-year-old from Groton whose mother said he suffers from mental illness and thrives on the excitement of getting into trouble. He promptly ran away from an unlocked facility in East Windsor, confirming the warnings of some that closing the training school before replacing it with an appropriat­e facility for the small percentage of kids that need to be locked up was a mistake.

Business: Marcia Jamerson has included her interest in designing and art in her shop, Nest in Mystic. Always crafty and with an eye toward trends, she had been making items like French ribbon rose pins, berets and scarfs and selling them to shops along the southeaste­rn Connecticu­t shoreline when she one day realized that she’d like to be a shopkeeper, too.

Daybreak: Emmett Breen, 15, of Stonington and Mackenzie Roy Peterson, 10, of Norwich are part of a burgeoning ninja warrior scene in Connecticu­t. As in the TV show, competitor­s face off against one another as they race against the clock in obstacle courses that resemble steroidal playground­s.

Perspectiv­e: When the grand old Palmer Auditorium at Connecticu­t College raises the curtain in a couple of years on its $20 million redo, students and faculty won’t be the only ones applauding.
