A good read for my Mystical friendsReply
Fascinating article. I've heard about this before; back in the late 70's, Professor Jahn worked for several years with Yuri Gellar, who demonstrated telekinetic powers. He could move small objects across a table without physical contact, bend spoons with his mind, and claimed he could induce astral projection at will. The results of Jahn's experiments were astounding, to say the least, and his work with Gellar defies any logical or scientific explanation to this day. In addition to his other tal

Record Powerball lottery winner ordered into substance abuse programReply
Maverick:Thanks for your comments; I'm always glad to hear from you, even when you don't agree with me, because you actually contribute something to the topics that interest you.I don't necessarily believe that the working man is a sucker. Quite the contrary; without unskilled labor, mass production might still be nothing more than an idea bouncing around in someone's head, but with no manpower to carry the concept to fruition.The point I was trying to make is that a man with an MBA can steal hu

Psychic predictions (I am getting resultsReply
Hypersong I wonder if visualization is harder now than it would have been maybe 40 or 50 years ago...

Are Lotteries RiggedReply
Didn't know this thread existed and I see it has been around for a while now. As far as whether or not lotteries are rigged , I voted Maybe. Then I read every post since this thread began. I don't think the word rigged would truly describe what I or anyone else might believe that didn't outrightly vote NO. A better word would be controlled . In a sense, we know the lotteries are controlled. Changing ballsets and machines are a method of control. Shutting down terminals one to two hours

GTECH scrutinized in bid for Tennessee lottery contractsNews Story
GTECH Corp., the lottery giant bidding for Tennessee contracts, has been praised for quick startups and leading technology.But the company has also been criticized for aggressive lobbying and a series of missteps in the 1990s that led to the criminal conviction of one employee and culminated in an overhaul of top managers three years ago. I don't think their past record should reflect adversely on ... the present company, although it does require someone to look at them with a little more due di
