Minn. store clerk accused of "micro-scratching" lottery ticketsReply
This is a repeat post that I had posted last week but thought it was appropriate for this scam now revealed. Listen I have a friend who is from India. He owned a store here in Queens. He was a very nice guy or so I thought. We became friends over the years. About 3 or 4 years ago he left the country very fast.

Record EuroMillions winners in hiding after begging avalancheReply
You are a small man. Jefferson may be a historical hero but he would not go to bat when it came to freedom for the woman who gave birth to his own children. Now you claim that I am not a lover of this country because I documented that Jefferson was a bold-faced lair, rapist and the European baker s friend. You should pick your heroes more carefully. I do not consider a liar and a rapist of slaves to be a hero no matter how much he or others wish to rewrite historical facts. In

Tennessee's biggest Powerball winner keeps low profileNews Story
Bobbi Hubbard of South Pittsburg, Tenn., keeps busy working on community projects like trying to start a free medical clinic in Marion County. She has lived in the same house for 18 years.

Arkansas voters get first lottery-only proposalNews Story
Arkansas banned lotteries even before state lawmakers determined how to properly pronounce the state's name. The 1874 ban held through the era of Hot Springs' illegal casinos and their destruction at the hands of sledgehammer-wielding state troopers nearly a century later. In the time since, attempts to legalize a government-run lottery always included bringing back casino games or something else just as unpalatable for a state squarely in the nation's Bible Belt. Now, though, a proposal b

Arkansas lottery certified for November ballotNews Story
The Arkansas secretary of state's office certified a proposed constitutional amendment for the November ballot Monday that would allow voters to decide Lt. Gov.

Indiana lottery players still hunting year-old jackpotReply
Anyone who does not question what is going on here in Indiana fails to view the Hoosier Lottery situationin it's totality.

Recent cases in point: 1. Hoosier Lottery Executive Esther Q. Schneider was forced to resign due to a veritable plethora of ethics violations. These charges included (among other things) using
