I Ching Meg Mil #sReply
Separating the yarrow stalks can be a time consuming process, so I sometimes use a computerized simulation of the method, which comes in handy for attempting to come up with six numbers. The best I've found is from Visionary Networks on CD ROM. The nice thing about it is that it gives you a text of all the version of the I Ching answer they used..... (I prefer to use the software to get the hexagrams and then refer to Welhelm/Baynes or another printed, more thoroughly documented translation.Bu

Bill could increase lottery prize payouts to Pennsylvania playersNews Story
Legislation would free up funds for bigger prizes By Kate Northrop A Pennsylvania bill that would effectively increase lottery prize payouts to players is awaiting final approval on the Governor's desk. Pennsylvania lottery players may be raking in larger prizes if House Bill 1058 passes, which would reduce the required profit margins the Pennsylvania Lottery is required to take in for state programs. House Bill 1058 has officially passed both the Senate and House, now awaiting a

Do you think Powerball will go to a billion dollars?Reply
Because you only choose 1 power/mega ball the increase in the number of balls has a direct linear effect. If both games had the same number of regular balls then PB odds would be 1.75 times higher instead of 1.13 times as high. When you're choosing multiple balls from a group, the number of possible combinations isn't even close to being a linear function of the increase in the size of the group. Here's a table showing the number of combinations as you increase from 5 of 10 to 5 of 22, and

Oklahoma lottery making strides to increase prizesNews Story

MM and PB jackpot increases.Reply
MM went up $25M and PB$ 13.7M yet MM is the one that gets criticized for smaller increases. MM is offering a bit more than twice as much money, not counting the larger non-jackpot prizes. M is also putting about twice as much money toward the jackpot for each ticket thanks to the $5 price. Powerball has a lot more regular players who are not addicts. Maybe. Ignoring the current run because initial sales are always bigger than normal after a run that reaches $1 billion or more, the

Mega Millions and Powerball RaceReply
Here is further evidence Powerball is still winning the race. ... After 5 Mega Millions draws .. PB has fairly consistently grown faster than MM, including under the $2 per ticket format, because of the 3rd weekly drawing, with short variations when MM has a really big jackpot. The consensus seems to be that Sunday drawing are unlikely, so MM has to work with just the 2 drawings per week. The differences you're comparing are advertised jackpots of 358 vs 20 and 474 vs 145. Over those drawin

Are you playing Mega Millions with the $5.00 per play?Reply
Anyone willing to guess the next increase on the Measly Millions when it rolls over tonight ? According to Jades chart up above, my best guess will be $23M.The TX lottery hasn't posted their projections for the next increase yet. Even with 4 days in between draws, I just don't believe it will do $24M+ for the next draw on 9/16. Could be wrong but the MUSL kids redesigned this toy for minimal increases. Good luck to all that have purchased a ticket for tonights draw.
