Live like a lottery winner in Lombard
2011-10-26 14:30:00 When Don Ryan, then Chairman of Lombard’s Plan Commission, won $11 million in the Illinois Lottery he didn’t head for a warmer climate as many might have. He built a 14-room, 4,085 square foot new home on one of the largest lots in Lombard. The home at 756 Finley Rd is now for sale for... Read more »

The (original) Lottery Prank 1996
2011-03-23 02:32:00 The (original) Lottery Prank 1996. The real deal, not an easy scratch card set up. Filmed pre-Youtube in 1996, we told our friend about a re-occurring dream about 6 numbers, conned him into buying a ticket and pre-recorded the numbers from a week before. I somehow fucked up one of the numbers and it annoys me to this day! We also recorded a message for him and put that on the same VHS tape. So he was sat there thinking he was a millionaire, then my face turned up onRead more ...

Lottery losers
2010-09-18 02:50:00 Question - How much money do Illinois schools get from the state lottery?Answer - The same as all the players, minus the winners.The Illinois lottery brought in a profit of $643m in 2009 for the Common School Fund. Outstanding! In that tight budget year the extra money should have helped around the margins, accounting for a little less than 10% of what the state spent on education. And lottery money should help the state avoid the need to cut the education budget in this difficult year.But, not really.Those kids who were paraded in front of cameras to help politicians sell the idea of a state lottery were props. The money that comes in from the lottery is essentially laundered through...

I won the (little) lottery! And feel guilty.
2010-09-10 03:20:00 We have a monkey obsession around here. My toddler insisted on wearing her Paul Frank monkey suit with the ears today and as she ate a banana in the Jewel check-out line, scratched her armpits and made animal noises, she yelled MONKEY! at a ticket machine. Turns out, it was a lottery ticket machine featuring some scratch off game called Chimp Change. What's a dollar, right? She gets to push a vending button and I get a happy toddler on the walk home while I struggle with four bags of melting groceries. I scratched it off and it said we won a free ticket, so I redeemed it at the counter for a second chance at Chimp Change. Scratch, scratch, scratch. Scratch....

A Review of Film 'The Lottery': 'Heartbreaking,' How Un
2010-06-10 07:59:00 -By SkyBluez (Ed's note: Sky_Bluez is one of my favorite Twitter pals and she wrote a great review of The Lottery, the film we discussed on Tuesday. It was originally posted on her blog The Song Remains the Same.) Last night I saw The Lottery a documentary about the problems with traditional public schools in disadvantaged areas. The film follows four families who enter the lottery to get a chance at having their child leave their low performing public schools in Harlem and the Bronx and attend a much better performing charter school. The documentary shines a light on how the local Democrat political establishment and teachers unions throw road blocks at every turn and make it extremely difficult for...

Craig Brackins Is Still Lottery Talent.
2010-05-31 05:21:00 Craig Brackins 6'10" 230-lbs PF Iowa State Craig Brackins, 22 years old, isn't getting mentioned in the forums when talks involve around the lottery. Should this past season's compromised talent on the Cyclones be to blame? Of course. Playing in the toughest conference without capable supplements, Brackins felt not only his stock get hit, but his "out-for" skill-set. Opposing teams tried their best to key-in on the 6'10", 230-pound Power Forward. His ability to get better is echoed whatever the cameras fellow. Because of other teams attention-to-detail approach, like Big 12 powerhouse Kansas, Brackins has come around to praising those who did such. Simply, he's gotten tougher because of that, stronger, more precise, more wise and seasoned, and mature. Here's...
The lottery goes reasonably well for the Bulls
2010-05-19 02:41:00 Not that the Bulls had too much at stake, it would have been nice to see the top two picks go out West while both are staying in the Eastern conference. Washington won the #1 slot. Combine that with their cap room, and they could be on a fast track to rebuilding, but I don't think John Wall and no core is enough to entice a major FA away from the Bulls.The 76ers finished second, and they aren't going to screw up anything we're doing this off-season either. They'll likely select Evan Turner assuming Washington doesn't screw up the Wall pick.The Nets, who had at least some potential to be a FA threat if they won the #1...
Winning the bustout lottery: cashing in on death
2010-05-13 09:34:00 I'm impressed, but not surprised, that these lawsuits were filed so quickly:Lawsuit filed in alleged shoplifter's death (4 days from death to lawsuit)Kathie, LaFond, Mother of 5-Year-Old DUI Victim Sues Boyfriend and Chicago Heights Police (2 days from death to lawsuit)First let's consider the case of Anthony Kyser. Kyser, a convicted felon with a healthy rap sheet, died after he fought with a CVS employee and "other subjects" who tried to restrain him after he was caught shoplifting. The investigation revealed that the employee placed Kyser in some type of chokehold; the Medical Examiner gave the cause of death as strangulation and ruled it a homicide.Many stores no longer employ loss prevention because of liability concerns, and shoplifters are allowed...

Track-off: Unmuvabo vs Lottery
2009-12-21 07:09:00 You ever hear rap that reminds you of the '90s? Believe me, that is a pure compliment coming from me. Though of course there has always been rap rubbish, I would argue that the 90s were a peak time for rhythmic American poetry. That's why I really enjoyed listening to the songs in today's track-off. They remind me of the vintage stuff. Take a listen, and whether you agree with my 90s nostalgia or not, vote on which MC took the musical cake. You know how this goes, and if you don't, here is a reminder of the rules. Earbuds in. Ready, set, track-off! One vote per poster and you only have until 11:59 p.m. today to make it happen for...

Derren Brown 'predicts' Lottery numbers
2009-09-11 09:06:00 Derren Brown, the illusionist, has correctly predicted the National Lottery numbers live on television. Channel 4 screened Brown's attempt to call Wednesday's draw across its five channels - the first time the broadcaster has given over its entire network to a single event.He promised to explain to viewers how he achieved the feat in a show on Friday.A smiling Brown said ''I can't believe it'' when he turned over the numbers he said he had selected in advance to reveal they matched all six in the official draw.The stunt marked the start of a new series of television tricks from Brown, whose past shows have seen him perform Russian Roulette live, apparently contact the dead in an interactive seance and convince members of the public to take part in the robbery of an armoured security van.He set up the Lottery event in a secret studio location, telling viewers only he and two cameramen were present.After explaining the line of balls on display contained the numbers he had predi...

I Won the Lottery!
2009-05-01 15:48:00 The Virginia Lottery has a great advertising campaign at some Metro stations. It?s a simple electronic billboard with bright red numbers indicating the current jackpot for Mega Millions. I?ve noticed the numbers gradually increasing week after week until it said $155 million on Tuesday. I figured I could use a few extra million (in addition to the zero million I currently have), so I played the lottery for the first time in years. Well, you are now reading the blog of the winner of Mega Millions! That?s right; on one of my tickets I selected one of the pick five numbers correctly and also got the mega pick number. I spent $5 to win $3. That?s enough to buy 3 more tickets today since apparently no one won the jackpot.Here?s your question of the day: If you won the lottery (let?s say $100 million as opposed to $3), would you still work? Please note that being a full-time blogger doesn?t count.

The Lottery Meme

Faint. 2. Where would you choose to live? Anywhere outside of the liberal dominated northeast. And certainly not on the west coast either. Perhaps the Carolinas, since Donna likes the water, or perhaps in Big Sky country near a lake somewhere. 3. What kind of house would you live in? Whatever. I’m not particular about that, though I guess it’d end up being bigger. 4. What kind of car would you buy? Frankly, I”m pretty happy with the one I have. I might buy Donna an Escape and keep the Fusion, though, and I’d spend some time and money dressing out the one I have. 5. Where would you vacation? Wherever we’ve not been recently. We have the trailer and like traveling that way. I figure we’d be traveling farther on a per-trip basis. 6. Would you have anything on...

Bahamas: Minister Rejects National Lottery Suggestion To Fund Education In
2008-06-09 18:44:00 Education Minister Rejects Nat?l Lottery Suggestion: By Viraj Perpall - Nassau, Bahamas: Minister of Education Carl Bethel has denied that the government plans to establish a national lottery over the next 10 years to fund education in The Bahamas. The statement that the government will establish a national lottery is contained in the latest draft of a new plan for education, which the Bahama Journal has obtained. Mr. Bethel confirmed that the Ministry of Education is completing a 10-year education plan but indicated that he is not aware of any plans to fund education through the means of "legalized gambling." "As minister of education I have no knowledge of this," Mr. Bethel said. "When I got to Education I met discussions in the Department of Education about the development of a 10-year plan that had been going on for at least 10 years. I set up a strategic group within the ministry and they are now in the process of engaging internal focus groups with stakeholders, with ...

Bahamas To Establish A National Lottery To Fund Education
2008-06-03 20:06:00 Bid For Nat?l Lottery: By Candia Dames - Nassau, Bahamas: Education officials have completed the latest draft of a new strategic plan for education, saying the government will over the next 10 years establish a national lottery to fund education in The Bahamas. "The bulk of monies in education?s budget is allotted to personal emoluments," the plan says. "This trend will continue as it reflects the need to reward our human resources with the salaries they deserve for the import duties performed.

Education officials also say the government will address funding issues in education by working closely with CARICOM countries to address common education challenges, thereby reducing costs. ...
