N.C. Lottery staff used common clip art to create logoNews Story
With a bit of drama Tuesday, lottery chief Tom Shaheen whipped away a towel and revealed a new logo for the state's $1 billion-a-year lottery. A roomful of people at the lottery commission meeting stared, for the most part, in puzzled silence. They studied the boxy blue and green figure, billed as the symbol of the state's games. It would be on posters. Billboards. Tickets. Finally, Jim Woodward, a lottery commissioner and former chancellor at UNC-Charlotte, wondered about its dominant

Lottosync V1.7 - is it fixed?Reply
I have developed failed systems on the forums (most recently soniq boom for pick3/4) but I know they don't work... a simple circular reference error made me believe it was better than it actually was... developing out in the open allowed a few fresh pairs of eyes to see the error. I know these systems don't work, and I know I don't have any edge alone... so why not openly develop stuff with a group of like-minded experimenters in an open forum... we KNOW nothing works, so why put a pricetag on

Psychic predictions (I am getting resultsReply
Not sure what type of site editing would be necessary to make blocked posters posts disappear from view, but am sure that Dragon and I aren't the only two who would love to have that function available. For those interested in forum subject only it would be a good method to set sermons aside and be able to get down to the meat of the subject. I apologize to any forum members (fundamentalists excluded) whom I may have offended by going off topic in order to qualify posts for better understanding

The Two Titans of the Lottery IndustryNews Story
We often hear that the $40 billion spent on video games worldwide dwarfs the amount spent on the motion picture industry. But another form of mass entertainment dwarfs them both: the lottery business. According to a Morgan Stanley study, sales of lottery tickets around the world will top $160 billion in 2004.You should be thankful for the lottery business this week as you write a check for your tax bill. That's because you'd probably owe a lot more if not for your fellow citizens' crazed desire
