There is a Required Update now available.

This is the last test of the Update System.

From here on out will be the deployment of different features in JADE LSGA.

These Updates will occur throughout the year as the program is translated from VB6 to VS2008.

Please contact us here at the Lottery Post via a Private Message for any problems, first.

Try a Blog next and then finally a Posted Topic.

Thank you, JADE.

We'll be conducting two different kinds of Updates for JADE LSGA.

The first will be an Optional Update where you have the choice to do the Update now or wait till another time.

The second will be a Required Update where the Update will be downloaded and you must install the update.

Each of these have their uses and reasons for use.

This is just to test your ability to get the update and apply it.

We'll do the Optional one today and the Required one tomorrow.

There's still a lot of planning on interface, implementation, documentation, and other aspects of deployment to be worked out for the full version.

The coding translations from VB6 to VS2008 are an interesting problem to solve.

Many of the programming styles used in VB6 have to be reworked for VS2008, but it's moving along smoothly.

You can test your system to see if you can use the Microsoft ClickOnce Deployment for JADE Lottery System Generator Analyzer.

Test Deployment Link - http://home.mchsi.com/~jadelottery001/publish.htm

In addition, when JADE LSGA implementation is begun, all you'll have to do is click 'Check for Update' in the test deployment.

We'll be making the changes to the test program if all goes reasonably well and will become the full application when ready.

Please review our previous blog, also.

We will be conducting a deployment test of JADE Lottery System Generator Analyzer in a few days or so.

Anyone that would like to help test the deployment scheme we have come up with can send a PM to JADELottery here at the Lottery Post or you can post a reply here in the blog.

Please keep in mind this is just a test of the deployment, not the full version program.

If you would like to send feedback about the deployment, please send a PM to us here at the Lottery Post.

We will review the feedback, however, we will reply to them at our discretion.

If this does not work out well for most of everyone, then we'll find a different way.

This first try, it is the easiest way for everyone to get JADE LSGA.

It works using Microsoft ClickOnce Deployment and will also allow for online updates, either automagic or user requested; we have to plan that one yet.

As Always, JADE LSGA was, is, and will be freeware.

We may have found a way to do an online download and update solution for JADE LSGA.

There's a lot more testing to do, but if this works out, the ease of downloading and updating might become very simple for the end users.

Some one sent me a Private Message about the Florida Cash 3 Evening Hitting Twice on the Straight.

You may have blocked me by accident.

I tried to reply, but it's coming back a blocked.

To answer your question about the double hit, the Quantum Formulae are designed to find the highest probable combo that is likely to hit.

That is why there was a Double Hit on the Straight for Florida Cash 3 Evening.

I just finished our TAX RETURNS. AaaaahhhhH!!!

OMG, that is one kind of number crunching I can do without.

Good thing from this is we'll be getting back some of what we put in.

Ah-AH-AAAHHHH!!!!! Damn...  AHHH!!!

Sorry, I just have to let it out some how.

 Me paying taxes.

 Me talking taxes.

 Me thinking I might be getting screwed by taxes.

 Me realizing how much I'm paying in taxes.

 Me hearing I might get audited on taxes.

 Me hearing there may be an increase in taxes.

Me listening to a politician tell me how they are going reduce taxes.

Well, I guess that smacked the Donkey in the scrotum a little to hard.

Whoa! What an Assclown kick back that was.

I think we are going to have to skip the online updates for JADE LSGA; at least for now anyway.

We've tried several ways of making this work efficiently, but no luck.

The Long and Hard Way it is.

With the Dow below 7000, this now puts 1929 Relative Crashometer Date at about 1930-05-11.

Use these different wheels individually or in combination with each other.

Alright, after watching last night's very skillfully played script by our new President, time for the reality check. Sorry folks, I have to side with the Republicans on this one. The current economic situation is bad, but it is not as bad as they would like us to think it is. I understand that it is a crisis when someone lost their job, however that's always going to be the case no matter what economic state the country is in. The problem I have has to do with how the 2008 Market Downfall is being played up as though and compared to the 1929 Market Crash and the ensuing economic Depression that followed.

Looking at a Linear graph of the Dow Jones Industrial Average or DJIA for the entire history we can see that yes there appears to be a major Downfall in 2008. However, when looking for the 1929 Market Crash, it hardly shows up as even a bump in the road.

 

 

"Why?", I asked myself. Well, if most you are familiar with Economies of Scale you'll have some insight to "why". As it is, the Linear graph does show a dramatic change in 2008. However, this is kind of misleading, because the scale at which the change occurs is vastly different than the change that occurred back in 1929. When you take into account the Economy of Scale you can see that the 1929 Market Crash is much more and vastly larger than the 2008 Market Downfall. So how do we display a graph to show this? Simple, use a Logarithmic graph to show the change in value. Below you now see that the 1929 Market Crash has a greater change than the 2008 Market Downfall.

 

 

So, what would the 2008 Market have to actually change to in order to be like the 1929 Market change? That's simple, use the Logarithmic data to find a DJIA value that would comparable to what we would see in 1929 to 1932. On 1929-08-30, the DJIA was at a high for the year at 380.33. On 1932-07-08, after the Market Collapse, the DJIA was at an all time low of 41.22. On 2008-05-02, the DJIA was at a high for the year at 13,058.20. Using this we can see what it would take for the 2008 Market to actually fall to, in relative terms using the Economy of Scale. We'll use the Natural Logarithm as a Scale factor. Also, the 1929 and 1932 values are X (1929) and Y (1932). The 2008 value will be assigned, A and it's potential Crash value will be assigned, B. We're ready, let's do the math.

First, take the Natural Logarithmic value of each variable, as follows:

Ln X, Ln Y, Ln A and Ln B

Now, express them as a change quotient relative to their previous Market values and dates of change, as follows:

(Ln Y - Ln X) / Ln X, for 1929 Market Crash

(Ln B - Ln A) / Ln A, for a possible 2008 Market Crash

Finally, set these equal to each other.

(Ln Y - Ln X) / Ln X = (Ln B - Ln A) / Ln A

All that needs to be done is solve for B and we can see what the DJIA would have to be at to be like the 1929 Crash.

(Ln Y - Ln X) / Ln X = (Ln B - Ln A) / Ln A

(Ln Y / Ln X) - (Ln X / Ln X) = (Ln B / Ln A) - (Ln A / Ln A)

(Ln Y / Ln X) - 1 = (Ln B / Ln A) - 1

(Ln Y / Ln X) = (Ln B / Ln A)

Ln A · (Ln Y / Ln X) = Ln A · (Ln B / Ln A)

Ln A · (Ln Y / Ln X) = Ln B · (Ln A / Ln A)

Ln A · (Ln Y / Ln X) = Ln B · (1)

Ln A · (Ln Y / Ln X) = Ln B

e ^ (Ln A · (Ln Y / Ln X)) = e ^ Ln B

A ^ (Ln Y / Ln X) = B

B = A ^ (Ln Y / Ln X)

The '^' means raised to the power of.

Now, plug in the values: A = 13058.20, X = 380.33 and Y = 41.22.

B = (13058.20) ^ (Ln 41.22 / Ln 380.33)

B = 377.07

By my calculation, the 2008 DJIA value of 13,058.20 would have to fall to 377.07 to be anything like the 1929 Crash.

Haphazardly stated, but phrased much more eloquently.

We can be your greatest ally or we can be your worst enemy.

You and you alone get to decide your destiny.

It is your level self reckoning cognitive curiosity and insight that determines the outcome.

So Say The Jehocifer.

Do not forgive them Lord for they now know what they do.

Give due notice that the time has come.

The judgment is upon them.

Make swift the saddle and stride.

So Say The Jehocifer.
