S.C. man wins major Powerball prize for second timeNews Story
Francis Stephenson struck Powerball gold this week. Again. South Carolina's first Powerball million-dollar winner in 2005, the 61-year-old Chester native scored a $400,000 prize Tuesday when he learned his quick pick ticket matched the first five numbers. I never thought I would win big again, he said. When you buy a ticket, (there's) that possibility you might win. Two years ago, Stephenson bought his winning ticket at the Pantry Express convenience store on the J.A. Cochran Byp

One year later, Powerball still treats them wellNews Story
Mike Terpstra could dream with the best of his lottery-playing co-workers at a Lincoln ham-processing plant. What, they wondered, would they do if they won? Terpstra fantasized about buying a remote tropical island, like one that actor Marlon Brando owned, or purchasing the Christina O, the luxury personal yacht in the fleet of the late shipping tycoon Aristotle Onassis. Either would be a warm escape from the chilly conditions in the ConAgra Foods plant. But a year after he and seven

Mass. Lottery bets it can draw richer playersNews Story
It's not your average Joe Lunchbucket's state lottery anymore. The Massachusetts State Lottery is spending millions on an upscale advertising campaign aimed at reeling in upper-income folks with dreams of having even more money. Emblematic of this new, and some might say curious approach, is the Lottery's sponsorship deal with public radio station WBUR, a National Public Radio affiliate. You won't hear the latest scratch tickets hawked. But the Lottery gets a very powerful, soft sell

CT Lottery workers 'getting the job done' despite agency upheavalReply
It appears that Connecticut needs to start @ the top and get rid of these folks that may have contributed to a toxic environment. As for unions, IDK. They can be your best friend or foe. Union membership apparently @ an all time low in this country. My opinion of some union stewards is they golf with the leadership of the corporations and union members be snip ed. Case in my point, my Brother. He didn't report a possible OSHA violation that he caused, though no one was hurt. It involv

COMPUTERIZED DRAWING GLITCH STRIKES ARIZONA LOTTERYReply
They're very aware that if they do that, they'd lose a lot of money because people would win more, much more. Where's the proof? That sounds like a copout: I'd win a lot more if only they didn't do the pre/post draws. That's a victim mentality. It reminds me of Sergio Garcia whining and complaining about a golf course, blaming that as the reason for not winning, when other players fly past him and win on the same course. Just because a number you think is *due* came out in the pre-post dra

Record Florida Powerball winner buys $1.175 million homeReply
I'm glad she bought a nice house, I would too. If the money changes her that is alright too. If I won I'm sure my self esteem would improve: I'm sure I'd be more confident: I think I'd be happier too: Oh yeah, and a house on a golf course:

$212 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot surgesReply
I haven't seen International Velvet but I will! I hear ya girl!!!! I agree about traveling. I work in the tennis business but if I won I wouldn't open a tennis club because I want to travel the world and play golf and tennis. Maybe even go to Margaritaville! I didn't know that horses show emotion. When I was a child I used to watch a TV show called Mr. Ed . Mr. Ed was the horse who could speak and had a sense of humor. Great show. Ahhhh...I shall dream tonight!

$205 MILLION: Powerball lottery jackpot surgesReply
Wow Pia, you've got great taste in cars! I agree that a broken-in car (used) is just as good as the newer ones. The first car photo (Mercedes I think) is gorgeous and you'd look good in it (that's your photo in the Avatar right?). The Jeep looks cool and I'd love to have a golf cart that looks just like it. The Pickup is sweet and would be a great car to get around the compound in (the big house you're going to buy). Did you ever notice when the media talks about the Kennedy's house th
