The Oregon Lottery is moving aggressively toward mobile phone bettingReply
It's not too much different than retail sales. Every year a store wants to increase it's sales over the last year. Going backwards is not an option. The problem with that is in a business like appliances, or furniture, a store's customer base doesn't need to buy something every year. Every store has a customer base that will shop that store when a need arises. So, it's necessary to find new customers, and new products that customers will like. With lotteries, they need to find new customers,

British Columbia Lottery taking bets on US electionReply
From Barrier Breakers 2016, because of the fear of online harassment. Many of Hillary Clinton s female supporters in particular have been subject to intense cyber-bullying and sexist attacks from swarms of anonymous attackers. There is a huge difference between a supporter and a surrogate and I doubt Rudy Giuliani and Kellyanne Conway are taking time off their regiment of daily news talk shows to post on anonymously on social media. From my point of view in this environment, it's the Tru

Quebec bill would force Internet firms to block access to online gambling sitesReply
The Devil's Advocate argument to this legislation is that the government does have an interest in legislating morality if the situation involves the mental or physical health and safety of its citizens as a whole. We live in a day and age where the morality and values of society have seriously declined, tending toward Ground 0, and at the rate we're going now in society, how are we going to salvage basic morals, values, virtue, and respect for the value and dignity of human life ?? Even thou

Lottery veterans question Tennessee family's behavior before claiming Powerball winningsReply
I always feel pity for naive winners who choose to stand in front of a gaggle of reporters and hold a press conference, but watching this trainwreck on Friday was downright painful. This might just be the worst lawyer on the planet. The level of stupidity is off the charts here. At least the other dummy, the one bailing out her drug-dealing bf, is stupid in the name of love. Friday's spectacle was the pilot episode in a saga that will run for many years to come. You can expect a falling out

Scotland's £148M EuroMillions lottery winner no longer speaking to family after giving them £20MReply
but should I win, I am not telling anyone, not my spouse, not the kids, no one I agree but only because my significant other loves to blab/gossip on social media about everything and anything. She talks to everyone in the family all the time which makes it harder I would try to hide it at first because that's a natural reaction for me. I don't get excited right away because it's a shock and I'm a methodical person. I'm thinking ahead and how to handle the situation.

Deadline passes: $16 million Powerball jackpot goes unclaimedReply
Excellent point. If they are really serious about finding the winner, they should put it in their rules that:- .....if a winner fails to show up until the last week .....a wanted poster of the winner will be published nationwide{social media et all} .....a reward of $10,000.00 or more will be awarded to the correct tipster{cops do it} .....the reward money will come from the lotteries and not from the winner. To the lotteries, this will be like taking $hitload of free money, and d

Ohio, Kentucky to use lotteries as incentive for residents to get vaccinatedReply
Just a guess, but it looks like you have no idea how the Small Pox and other vaccinations work. It's not like I didn't already know there are a lot of stupid and uninformed people out there, but the pandemic has been a real eye opener. It would seem people living in the early 1900's were smarter than some living today, l wonder why that is? Even 25 years ago there was far less opportunity for the gullible to be subjected to the massive amount of disinformation that comes from the fa

O this is a real shame... But, to the future inmates they are? They don't care. Heck, they don't even sweat it. It don't even worry them i believe because like i hear and read that most criminals all ages, are feelin' thinkin' it is worth it because the prison time is a short sentence, so they feel it's worth what they stole to enjoy it while they are a free person.
