Why Lotteries are Bad – The Third Reason
[Today's Thursday re-run first ran on November 30, 2009.]
There is a pretty obvious reason why buying lottery tickets is a bad idea. You will lose money. The odds are usually just awful. Casino gambling is, in comparison, a sound investment.
And, of course, casino gambling is not a wise thing to do with your savings. You would have to be off the deep end of "positive thinking" to believe anything other than it was, for some, an amusing way to waste money.
That objection to gambling, and lotteries, is today so pervasive that we have all but forgotten another traditional objection. A hundred years ago, at least as common as the argument that you would probably lose was the one that you might win. Back in the almost forgotten era when gambling of all kinds was illegal throughout the country, it was argued that gambling undermined the work ethic, allowing some to become rich without appropriate effort. And that was immoral.
The idea of wealth without work has, to say the least, lost much of its stigma. Which has left the moral rectitude camp with only one defense against the swelling tide of lotteries and other forms of legalized gambling, the bad bet argument. And that has been, manifestly, not very persuasive.
State lotteries as we know them date only to 1964, when the Live Free or Die gang in New Hampshire came up with a new way to raise money without raising taxes. Today 43 states have lotteries. (One of the seven holdouts is Nevada. I don't think that's on moral grounds.) My own state of Massachusetts leads with the highest per capita annual spending, at $700. Nationally, we spend more on lotteries than we do on movies.
The problem with arguing against lotteries on the basis that they are a losing proposition is that it boils down to an argument that the government should prohibit people from doing foolish things with their money. That goes against what most of us think governments should do, and if the alternative is taxing us not-quite-so-foolish types more, then there is really nothing left to discuss.
Enter the brand new third argument against lotteries. Even if you win, you will become unhappy and broke. It is basically a fraud argument. Never mind the poor odds that make it a waste of money, the promised prize is far less desirable than advertized.
The lottery winners turning out poor theme has been rattling around the blogosphere for the past few months. Our old friend Dave Ramsey in June shared some statistics on the subject
Did you know the divorce rate among Lotto winners is four-fold the national average? Also, 65% of Lotto winners are bankrupt within 15 years.
Shockingly, Ramsey did not cite sources for this data.
Several other blogs and newspapers have picked up this story line lately, all with anecdotal tales and some with statistics from unnamed sources. The Consumerist carried a post headlined 1 in 3 Lottery Winners Broke Within 5 Years but not only was that number unsubstantiated, other than a 32 word introduction, the entire post was a quote from an article from the Eagle-Tribune (Lawrence, MA). Nothing wrong with that article. It has stories of local people who have won lottery prizes and quotes from financial planners saying the first thing a new lottery winner should do is to hire a financial planner.
Indeed, the fact that many, if not most, lottery winners wind up penniless is accepted so broadly that it is simply assumed in most discussions. Free Money Finance had a post in October Another Broke and Unhappy Lottery Winner quoting an obit from 2006 of one William "Bud" Post III. Post is often cited in these discussions. Although he died at only 66, he lived a full life, including a $16.2 Million lottery prize, seven wives, ten children (nine with wife #2, another with an unmarried companion), jail time for writing bad checks and assault, and a brother who hired a hit man to rub him out. I guess we always knew winning the lottery brought excitement into your life.
A few weeks ago The Digerati Life brought us a post Why Lottery Winners Go Broke: Prospect Theory At Work, which tried to explain this phenomenon we all now understand to be true. And earlier this month the Detroit Free Press ran a heart warming story of lottery winners who did not go broke, something that would be too dog-bites-man to publish if it were not for the general assumption that winning the lottery is actually a curse.
Personally, I am an agnostic when it comes to the question of what generally happens to the wealth of lottery winners. I am willing to assume that a person who has won $1 million in the lottery will, on average, act more foolishly with it than a person who has saved $1M carefully over many years. But until somebody can send me a link to a bone fide study of lottery winners I will presume that the X% go bankrupt stats are numerical fiction.
When you get down to it, our readiness to believe that lottery winners soon go broke is based on the same sense of morality that was behind the objection to gambling that wealth without effort was wrong. Deep inside our national psyche is the background hum of the Protestant Work Ethic, the idea that material wealth is the divine reward for hard work and clean living. Vast riches given to somebody stupid enough to buy a lottery ticket upsets the natural order of things. So of course they have to blow it all soon enough.

I bought a Powerball ticket today. If I win, I'll happily report back at regular intervals to let you know how I'm doing.

The problem is that lottery winners become easy targets both because they often don't have good money management skills and just as you pointed out in the article, there is a general feeling by friends and relatives that since the money wasn't "earned" it's only fair to share. My friend's brother won over fifteen million in a state lottery. At first it was great, lots of celebrating.
Then the requests began.
For various pal's business ventures: "Hey, I got a great idea for…you put up the seed money and I'll run it. You can't lose."
From Family: "Well, thanks for the $10,000. But I'm just wondering when I'll get the rest of the million you should give me. I am, after all, your sister/brother/father/mother/best cousin and I figure I deserve at least that much."
From cons, legal or otherwise: "You have to sign the buyout tonight. It's a good deal from a legitimate banker, they give you a lump sum for the annuity, and we get a $25,000 finders fee. You don't lose anything, why are you being so greedy?" (per an accountant he showed it to the deal would have made him bankrupt in seven years)
If the winner is married, both sides of the family, both groups of friend, etc. provide potential pressure. Imagine if the spouse has a different view of what to do with the money. Is it any wonder that people in already stressed relationships, especially if they're not good with money to begin with, end up divorcing.
My friend's brother did get a divorce, but per my friend that was coming anyway, the money just let it happen quicker. But neither the brother or the brother's ex wife have gone bankrupt. They've dealt with the issues, and by all accounts are doing fine now. Like most news stories, it's the sensational outliers that make for meaty stories.

I believe big winnings would be stressful. That's why I put my bets ($5.00 annually) on the small lottos. It amazes me how people sniff at 10 million prizes in favor of 100+. Usually people who couldn't put their hand on 10k if their lives depended on it. 50k doesn't make the news and isn't vulture bait.

There are two kinds of gambling that I enjoy (very much in moderation): (1) poker and (2) horse racing. I see both as being more about the social event than the gambling aspect.
By Frankie, November 5, 2010 @ 2:44 pm
I think you're totally right, the idea that it's found money changes the dynamics.
I know some people who made decent money when the companies they worked for were acquired, but I don't recall that much pressure from family and friends. That said, I may not have been close enough to know what the internal dynamics were like.
By Dan, November 5, 2010 @ 5:18 pm
"If the winner is married, both sides of the family…"
Heh. Who needs the lottery for that? All that one needs for that to happen is for the inlaws to perceived them as substantially better off than they are.
By Mr. Republican, December 24, 2011 @ 12:09 am
It's not just holy rollers that dislike the lottery,…think about all the republicans. If everyone had the same shot at the "A" team without any of the "saving grace" of being a "job creator" then that would make you very nervous, too. Imagine a world where you had to live with someone that has money but doesn't necessarily share your values….very democratic at best, which is not the way most of your "upper crust" envision our society…
Hope you all have a Merry Christmas
By Tom, July 15, 2012 @ 9:27 pm
The reason gambling is considered a sin is because it is usually a zero sum game. If you win, you are taking someone else's money and giving them nothing in return. Of course, they volunteer their money, but the principle applies anyway.
By John Brucato, August 23, 2013 @ 8:45 pm
I love sports betting no matter what kind, it provides such exitements on the games and I always have the opportunity to make some extra money. Even online betting for casinos you can play from your own home and computer.

Nutrition Champions
Quite simply, a balanced diet is one that provides our bodies with all the right nutrients, in the right amounts in order to function properly. Our job is to help all our customers achieve this balance by providing the right foods and the information our customers need to make the right choices. It is our ambition within You & Life to become leaders in championing the choice of food and drink on sound nutritional principles.
Different foods contain different nutrients, and no one food contains all the nutrients our bodies need. This means that we need to eat a wide variety of foods in the right amounts to achieve a healthy balance.
Achieving this healthy balance does not mean giving up favourite treats- we just need to be aware of the types of foods that should be eaten in moderation and the foods that are valuable sources of important nutrients that should be eaten more regularly.
We base our healthy eating principles on those of the government and follow their advice and guidance on what constitutes a healthy diet and we join in with government-based voluntary best practices.
For example meeting sugar reduction targets, or meeting any specific mandatory nutrition standards including School Food Standards. Our team of dietitians are all registered with the Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC) and are members of the British Dietetic Association.
Nutrition is a constantly evolving area and we are continuously gaining new insights into the links between food, health and wellbeing. At Elior we keep our ear to the ground and monitor newly emerging healthy eating trends or growing movements in the sphere of health and wellbeing and have included some of these messages that may differ from current government advice in the Eatwell Guide section of this website. Please note that this is intended to inform you about alternative nutrition viewpoints and does not constitute medical advice.

To accommodate their growing needs, Boston Children's Hospital is expanding its campus in the Brookline Village. Their redevelopment plan includes demolishing of the existing garage, Two and Four Brookline Place buildings, and an addition to One Brookline Place.This Major Qualifying Project (MQP) focuses on an alternative design for the new garage that will serve these two facilities. The proposed design of the garage exterior aims to add aesthetic value to the Brookline Hospital Campus and create an identity, through featuring a green wall, cool lighting effects during the night and by looking more kid-friendly. As part of this MQP, I conducted structural analysis, developed architectural details, and visually presented the concept for the new garage envelope.

It's 7am and the Have Power guys have shown up exactly on time to install our JuiceBox EV charging unit. Jason had confirmed for me the day before that 7am was okay, and I said no problem, typically up at the crack of dawn anyway. With a toddler we very much appreciate when people are on time these days, helps with the general scheduling.
Even though we had already been through the initial consultation many weeks back, the guys went through a second time and started tapping on the ceiling in the basement, the walls, trying to figure out where they were going to run the line. We're in a townhouse in DC, the power comes in off the sidewalk in the front of the building and then has to run all the way back to the parking area in the alley. In total it's about a 60 foot run, with twists and turns, it's probably about 100 feet. Running electric cable through a townhouse front to back can be nightmare since the floor joists usually cross the shortest span wall to wall. Fortunately we have a couple of dropped ceiling spaces for AC ductwork and the electric going in to the laundry room.
We did a good job of keeping out of everyone's way and let them do their work. The whole job took about 6 hours, most of it was trying to actually fish for openings so that there would be as few holes as possible in the ceiling. And then moving circuits around so there was room in the panel for a new 40 amp breaker. There was a team of four guys and two trucks. Maybe a little over kill, but when they finished early afternoon I was very happy that it was all completed in one day, and everyone on the team was super nice.
So here's where I give a little plug for Have Power, if you're in the greater Washington DC area and you need an EV Charging unit installed, you couldn't ask for a nice group of people to do the work – on time, professional, careful, amazing job. Next morning I got an email from their office team with the available dates to get the inspector in. Almost as painless an experience as can possibly be had with contractors.
So far so good. I guess the real test is when we plug the car in and hopefully nothing explodes or catches on fire.

Trump's government shutdown, now on day 17 and counting, has led to the closure of Joshua Tree National Park.
The park announced today, Tuesday January 8, that it will temporarily close "effective 8 am on Thursday, January 10, to allow park staff to address sanitation, safety, and resource protection issues in the park that have arisen during the lapse in appropriations."
Officials at the popular California park say some of the iconic desert trees (Yucca brevifolia) and other ancient elements of the landscape have been damaged by people and their cars since the shutdown began, severely limiting park staffing.
"While the vast majority of those who visit Joshua Tree National Park do so in a responsible manner, there have been incidents of new roads being created by motorists and the destruction of Joshua trees in recent days that have precipitated the closure. Law enforcement rangers will continue to patrol the park and enforce the closure until park staff complete the necessary cleanup and park protection measures," park officials said in the release.
In related news, Rep. Jackie Speier is dumping some of the national park trash right on Trump's doorstep.
@RepHuffman and I are delivering trash that he and I cleaned up in national parks in our districts last weekend and that I personally paid to have shipped to DC so that we can deliver it to the White House. pic.twitter.com/kutje4Ue6F

Your faithful Boing Boing writer is among the many Americans who have visited multiple national parks in recent weeks, and encountered trash piling up, restrooms not being serviced, and parking rules being violated.
When the park workers are away, the tourists play.

Students Take Blue and White Chips from Class Project to Full-Fledged Business
What started as a class project has grown into a full-fledged business start-up in the State College community that is bringing Blue and White Chips to the marketplace.
Agribusiness student Deanna Spaniel was asked by Penn State College of Agricultural Sciences entrepreneurship coordinator Mark Gagnon to work on a student-run venture that could be passed on to the next group of students each year. Horticulture student Ben Nason soon joined the effort and they began immersing themselves in the world of potato chips and their different varieties.
Penn State's risk management office didn't think the project would be viable for the university, but having put in hundreds of hours of work on the project, Spaniel and Nason decided they would continue to pursue it.
"The end of the spring last year we started working on making this an actual company," Spaniel said. "We had a ton of time in, so we created our company What the Chip? and started looking for producers to make our first product Blue and White Chips. Our research proved there was a market for this kind of food item and people got extremely excited just by the idea of it, so we figured it was worth pursuing."
While their business is based in State College, the chips are produced by Bickels Snack Foods in York, Pa. The chips are naturally colorful.
"Our chips are different colors because the potatoes we use actually grow in those colors," Spaniel explained. "The same thing that makes blueberries blue makes the variety of potato we use that color. We don't use dyes of any kind, just slice and cook the potatoes. There are tons of varieties out there and we can make almost any color chip from pink to black."
It hasn't been easy managing the schedules of full-time students and growing a new business that required some three-hour drives to York before class.
Spaniel said that while she was working on the recipe, she would wake up at 4 a.m. to drive to York, make runs of chips for their orders -- usually around 1000 bags -- then drive back to State College in time to get to class.
"It takes persistence and dedication, but we manage," Spaniel said. "We luckily have a lot of people who want to help us and guide us to being successful. Plus as students there are so many resources available that it really makes anything possible if you are willing to put the work in."
Nason and Spaniel worked closely with Gagnon and Professor of Vegetable Crops Bill Lamont to learn about potato research. A Penn State accelerator course taught them about networking and making business connections. That led them to the Small Business Development Center, which assisted in setting up the legal aspects of the business.
After they started making the chips, word began to spread around the College of Ag, and Nason and Spaniel were able to participate in Ag Progress Days last August, which led to more events and exposure.
"The Penn State network is incredible and has brought us so many opportunities and connections we otherwise wouldn't have," Spaniel said.
In April, the College of Ag's Entrepreneurship and Innovation Program awarded Blue and White Chips first place in the Ag Springboard business pitch competition, which came with a $7,500 prize.
Nason will graduate this week, and Spaniel has about three years left before she earns her degree. But now they plan to continue to grow the business. They will develop What the Chip's web presence and finish packaging design. The Ag Springboard prize will provide enough money to launch a fall run that will make them a full-fledged business.
And, Spaniel said, they plan to make the State College community the home for their business.
"We love this community and it has become in a way part of our business. We definitely plan on staying and growing here."

Guidance Needed for Removing a Node
I'm stuck with this problem I've been working on for the past few days. The only portion of the program I'm having trouble with is the method which removes nodes from a list. My initial thinking was if the node was to be removed, then I could set the next node to the current node's position; however, when I do this, I get caught in a never ending loop. Any guidance is greatly appreciated.
Code below:
Java Code:
private static Node removeNodes(Node h, int iVal) { while (h != null) { // check if first node is empty int temp = h.data; if (temp != iVal) { // test to see if temp is equivalent to iVal h = h.next; // move to next node } else { h.next = h; // set next node to current node, deleting old node h = h.next; // move to next node } } return (h); }

In case you're new to the Swiss OMEGA Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday replica watch, 2012 alludes to the year we began Speedy Tuesday. It was in Cannes where I was for an occasion, wearing my Speedmaster. I took a photo of this watch and put it on Facebook and kept in touch with It is Speedy Tuesday, as it was a Tuesday. That basic. Nonetheless, it propelled me to think of a week after week repeating thing on Fratello about Speedmaster watches.
The History
The principal Speedy Tuesday version was enlivened by the first OMEGA Speedmaster 1978 Project Alaska III replica watch that arrived around our work area in 2012, with the staggering spiral subdials. There, we likewise chose not to accompany a correct imitation but rather included an invert panda for instance, among some different subtle elements. With this ST2 Ultraman, basically putting an orange hand on a Moonwatch would be minimal amusing to do.
We leave the first Speedmaster Ultraman alone. Rather, the Swiss replica OMEGA Speedy Tuesday 2 Ultraman accompanies various energetic highlights. Other than the popular orange focal seconds hand, you will discover more orange accents on the dial. The little squares over the hour markers, the Speedmaster wording and the initial three moment markers on the chronograph's moment recorder.
These three minutes allude to Ultraman too, as he could just remain in superhuman mode for so long. At that point, on the DON bezel, we discover the Tachymètre wording likewise in orange. The ST2 Ultraman accompanies two lashes, a NATO tie and a cowhide tie. Both dark with orange accents. The Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday 2 Ultraman depends on the 42mm Moonwatch.
The Dial
Inside, you will locate the trusty old hand-wound bore 1861 Movement. The crown that you use to wind it, in any case, is somewhat not the same as the general form. The fine teeth crown has the old Omega plan logo on there. On the dial, other than the orange accents said above, you will locate the connected Omega logo that was utilized as a part of the past from 1957 to 1968 and a stage.
This progression dial is likewise a gesture to the 1967 Ultraman display, as it was utilized as a part of those years. Other than the expansive orange Ultraman hand, the little hand for the seconds is likewise somewhat not the same as what you're utilized to. A gesture to Ultraman also. When you will utilize an UV light on the ST2 Ultraman, you will find there's the orange outline of Ultraman's profile. An UV light is furnished with the watch.
The caseback depends on the first Moonwatch one, with the acclaimed Qualified by NASA. Engraving yet in addition conveys the Speedy Tuesday hashtag and the one of a kind number of your watch. The replica OMEGA Speedy Tuesday 2 Ultraman watch arrives in a delightful box, in light of the hexagonal cutting edge table utilized by Ultraman's Monster Attack Team.
The Case
In the case you will locate the extra lash and an instrument that really resembles Ultraman's Beta Capsule that can be utilized to change ties. The opposite side of this device is the UV light. Make a point to utilize that UV light to find a few astonishments in the bundling. Much the same as the OMEGA Speedmaster Speedy Tuesday watch replica from a year ago, this ST2 Ultraman will likewise be restricted to 2012 pieces.
The 2012 watches are just accessible specifically by means of the Omega site, where you can save your own number. Simply set aside a few minutes to do as such, as a year ago went faster than we thought. Toward the beginning of today, Omega effectively conveyed a sneak-see to the individuals who indicated enthusiasm for the main Speedy Tuesday and on their online life channel.

Somewhere in the deep past there were four creatures:

Another was an eagle, soaring above the mountains raising great bowls to heaven.
The third was a man, who forged the wind of heaven into the weapons of angels.
Finally there was a lion, who transformed the sounds of the others into his roar.
Together they were HyperYak - the voice, the mountains, the roar of heaven.

(Based on Dorvon Uul, a song about the 4mountains that surround the Mongolian Capital, Ulaan Baatar)
to the intense dialogue of Hippogriff ("Sired by a Griffon out of a mare: like it's father's were its feathers
and wings, its forelegs, head, and beak; in all its other parts it resembled its mother; they come,
though rarely, from the Rhiphaean Mountains, far beyond the icebound seas" – Ariosto 'Orlando Furioso).
From the calm of Heavens Wind (Inspired by a Jalait Mongolian poem 'Tengri-yin Salkhin':
"The Winds of Heaven shift and change, your body will not live forever; your mortal body
has but its brief span of life. May we, fast friends that have met, all live long and happily together!")
to the drama of Installing Ley Lines
"Their time machine landed in a suburban street; they set up their cones and drills and began installing ley lines"

Slovakia is joining the list of countries that are strengthening security controls following the terrorist attack in Paris. Its counterintelligence service plans changes in the aim and also scope of activities.
The state should be able to monitor in a simpler manner, the privacy, telephone records and bank accounts of foreigners or other potentially risky individuals.
"If the security risk in Europe increases I think that it will be the simplest to react to these risks," said Prime Minister Robert Fico on the public TV channel's RTVS discussion Sobotné Dialogy. As far as the fight against terrorism goes, all countries should have the right to adopt laws that would give a free hand to the police to collect information concerning the private lives of people who pose a potential risk, Fico added.
"There are certain categories of people – foreigners or sometimes even our own people – whose behaviour seems irrational or strange," Fico said, as quoted by the TASR newswire. "They act in a way that raises concerns as to whether they might be able to commit some crime in the future," said Fico. The prime minister went on to say that the Slovak Intelligence Service (SIS) is currently placing great emphasis on effective international cooperation, particularly in the field of intelligence exchanges.
Interior Minister Robert Kaliňák plans to submit the respective changes so that they could be on parliament's agenda already in March, the Hospodárske Noviny daily wrote. For example, also the approving of wiretapping of foreigners who live in Slovakia is going to change. At the Special Court, a panel will be established whose members will be trained to see that all rules are observed, but also that it is possible to monitor people who cannot be followed now, Kaliňák said according to the daily.
Fico further stated that he fully identifies with Foreign and European Affairs Minister Miroslav Lajčák's opinion that the project of multiculturalism has failed. The premier emphasised in this respect that all decent people from outside Slovakia are welcome in the country but they should respect the environment, values and regulations that prevail in Slovakia to a certain extent, according to TASR.

LET THERE BE no doubt about it: Tiger Woods is back — if not to the stunning heights of his absolute best, then at least to a place where he is a live and genuine contender to add to his haul of 14 Major championships.
Woods stole the show at Bellerive Country Club on Sunday, rolling in eight birdies in a brilliant 64 that saw him finish in second place at the PGA Championship.
For a large part of the evening, it looked very likely that he could go one better.
If nothing else, he would have been a shot closer had this 30-foot birdie putt at the 11th not stayed agonisingly perched on the lip of the cup:
August 12, 2018
This approach shot from 164 yards on the 15th hole was every bit as good as anything he produced when at his best, rolling to within 18 inches for a gimme birdie:

And after a wayward tee shot on the par-five 17th ended any realistic chance of catching the red-hot Brooks Koepka, Woods finished on a high with this brilliant birdie at the last:
Might as well end it on a birdie. Tiger finishes -14 with a final-round 64 pic.twitter.com/vWDzMcD39y— SI Golf (@SI_Golf) August 12, 2018

Let's take a look at regular monthly "preview" charts. Now that June is in the past let's take a look at the local housing market stats for the month. Short story: Inventory bumped up slightly, but is still in the gutter. Sales are still very strong.
Listings are still very scarce, but at least they've bumped up quite a bit from the all-time low. Sales are strong, and hit their highest point since sometime before 2009 in Snohomish County.

- age of Emerging Technologies, Disruption and Change" will be held at Dusit Thani Resort Hotel,

- · The 1st AUAP with IFCU Joint International Conference will be held at Dusit Thani Hotel, on November 18-21, 2018, in Pattaya, Thailand.
Memorandum of Understanding (MoU):
The most remarkable achievement that AUAP has done during Dr. Nam's Presidency is the
number of MOUs signed with various international organizations such as: the United Nations
Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the International Institute Of
Education (IIE), the World Federation Of The United Nations Association (WFUNA),
the Center For Global Non-Killing (CGNK), the International Association Of University Presidents (IAUP), Global Knowledge Alliance (GNK) and the
International Federation of Catholic Universities (IFCU).
· There are over 500 signed MoUs among AUAP members and partners since the
inauguration of Dr. Sunghee Nam as the AUAP President, in November 2016. This is the highest
number ever recorded in the history of AUAP.
AUAP Membership Status:
· At the end of 2014, AUAP had a total number of 240 members, with only 60 active members. In 2015, during the tenure of the Former AUAP President, Dr. Shawn Chen, the number of active members increased from 60 to 100, (The Secretariat received 40 reactivated memberships and new members).
· Since the swearing-in ceremony of Dr. Sunghee Nam in November 2016, the number of active members both (longstanding and newly joined) has increased from 100 to 147.
I have been with AUAP since its founding in 1995. I can honestly say that AUAP has been most active during the time of Dr. Sunghee Nam as President.

Nordica USA Promachine 130 2020
Special Price $749.99 Regular Price $850.00
In stock
Why we like it: Built to get the most out of all conditions, the Promachine 130 delivers the performance of a Dobermann race boot in a more comfortable lightweight shell and liner. The newest addition to the machine family, it's the most modern low-volume boot Nordica has ever crafted. It employs stiffer plastic along the spine of the shell, allowing for tons of lateral stability and a smooth flex. That, combined with an anatomical 98mm-last shell and 3D liner, that can be further customized using infrared heating, makes for incredibly responsive, precise turns and ample rebound. Wear the Promachine and get the power you demand with the comfort you desire.
Bottom line: The Promachine 130 is for the hard charging all-mountain skier that needs the highest performing boot. Nothing beats the control and power brought by the Promachine, with high performance cork liner and newly introduced infrared customizable shell for supreme custom fit, the comfort and control can't be matched.

Dental Implants In West Auckland
Dental Implants - a realistic way to improve the look and functionality of your teeth.
A realistic way to improve the look and functionality of your teeth.
Dental implants are designed as a semipermanent solution to replace missing teeth. They are placed into your jawbone via a series of operations and cannot be removed without the help of a dental care professional.
What are Dental Implants?
Receiving a dental implant take several months. Firstly, your dentist or dental hygienist will insert the implant into your jaw. You may have to wait several months after this step, as the bone needs to grow around the implant to keep it in place. Sometime later, your dentist will create an artificial tooth and screw or cement it into the foundation. Your local family dentist can help you decide whether dental implants are the best choice for your needs.
Benefits of Dental Implants
When created and placed correctly dental implants can be indistinguishable from natural teeth. This means you'll be able to smile with confidence. If you've lived without teeth for a long period of time, dental implants may result in a great self-esteem boost. Dental implants mean you can eat, talk and sleep like normal, without having to worry about dentures.
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I care for my dental implants?
In most cases, you can treat your implants exactly the same way you would treat regular teeth. You can eat and drink as normal, but you'll also need to floss and brush every day.
Are dental implants expensive?
Some dental services can indeed be pricy. The process of receiving dental implants requires several trips to the dentist, including assessments, scans and surgeries. The cost of these appointments, as well as the implants and foundations themselves, can add up. It's important that you discuss your budget with your local dental clinic before deciding.
Are dental implants painful?
To receive dental implants, you will have to undergo one or more operations. These are normally done under sedation, so you'll feel no pain throughout the insertion process. You may experience some bruising, swelling or bleeding at the site of your implants.
Find the Best Course of Action for You
If you're in need of dental implants, West Auckland residents can speak to the experts at Titirangi Dental Centre to decide whether they are the best tooth replacement option for you. To learn how you can smile with confidence again, contact us today and call 09 817 6057.

Today the feeling with the car was very good and I was able to push, but I just wasn't as fast as the others. Obviously, today it was better than yesterday in terms of pace, but it wasn't enough to put pressure on our competitors. We tried everything and I am happy that we got a podium finish, but obviously this is not the result we were looking for. My start was good, but there wasn't much track space for me and I could go nowhere. After pit stop we were able to overcome Lewis, but he could pull ahead more than us and at the end there was nothing to do. We lost some points during the two last races and it doesn't help, but we have our plan to follow and hopefully we can make some progress in the races to come. Maybe the next couple of tracks are better suited for us, we will know when we get there. We need to keep pushing and try; who knows what will happen in the next races.

I think the car today was better than yesterday. The session was fine, and I think we could use our car to its full potential, there was nothing wrong with it, but we just weren't very fast enough. Nevertheless, the race is tomorrow, and if I can bring the good feeling I had towards the end of the session into the race, then I think we are in a good position. For sure, I want to do everything well and I think that there is a chance to overtake after the start. We need a good getaway-but not too good, otherwise you end up giving the other guy a tow!

Some Fridays are good, some aren't and this one hasn't been great for us. We are not where we want to be yet and we've got some catching-up to do. Today it was difficult to put the laps together, we went through the tyres too fast, especially the front left, and struggled a bit with both the fast laps and with fuel on board. There was also a lot of traffic and obviously this never helps. Now we have some work to do, as we need to find the reasons for that and come back stronger. However, I am positive as ever, as I think that tomorrow and on Sunday it will be better and we'll find out the right things to apply. We want to put both cars on the front row tomorrow; we don't know yet what will happen, but we'll try to do our best as pole is the best place to start from.

Dilated pupils can be the result of drug addiction, but also appears with other medications and medical conditions. Dilated pupils are usually not dangerous. They may keep a person from seeing well and make the eyes more sensitive to the sun. It's common to need sunglasses when pupils are dilated because light hurts the eyes so much. Dilated pupils is also a well known sign that something is wrong, and may attract attention from other people. But, dilated pupils shouldn't permanently damage a person's vision. Usually, they will go back to normal once the effects of a particular drug wear off.
The pupil is the black or dark part of the eye located in the center of the eye. The pupil is a hole inside the iris. Pupils get bigger to help light come into the next part of the eye, known as the retina. When light hits the retina, the light is absorbed, giving the pupil its dark color.
There are special muscles in the eye that make the pupil larger or smaller to let different amounts of light enter and strike the retina. When the pupil is smaller, less light comes in. When the pupil is larger, more light comes in. The pupils are also usually smaller when a person is trying to see something up close. When the pupils get larger (such as, a result of drug abuse), a person may have a hard time seeing things further away.
Medications, injuries, and damage to structures of the brain (such as a brain tumor) can lead to dilated pupils. Medications that can cause dilated pupils are:
Medical conditions that can cause dilated pupils include brain or head injuries. When an athlete suffers a concussion it can lead to brain swelling that affects the athlete's pupils.1 A head injury or a stroke may also cause a blown pupil.
A "blown" pupil isn't the same as a dilated or enlarged pupil. A blown pupil is when the pupil is dilated and fixed – this means that it will not react to light.2 This is one of the reasons doctors shine a light in your eyes when you might have suffered a head injury. If the light doesn't dilate the pupil, this is a sign of a blown pupil and suggests a head injury.
Some illegal drugs cause dilated pupils because the reflexes of the eyes are less able to adapt to changes in light.3 Examples of drugs that can affect a pupil's reaction to light include:
If a person has larger-than-normal pupils, this doesn't mean a person is on drugs. Some people may feel self-conscious when they have enlarged pupils because of being accused of being "on something" by other people.
It's not necessary to be a doctor to tell if a person has dilated pupils or to assess a person's pupils. There are three main considerations when evaluating pupils. These include:
When estimating how big around a person's pupils are, doctors usually measure pupil size in millimeters.4 According to the American Journal of Critical Care Medicine,5 most people's pupils are somewhere between 2 and 6 millimeters in size. Most people have pupils that are the same size. But, it's still normal for a person to have pupils that are about 1 millimeter different in size.6
Pupils and the reflexes that control vision should get smaller when a person shines a light to them. Otherwise, the failure to change in size could signal a serious medical condition.
When a person's pupils are different sizes, doctors call this anisocoria. This condition could signal brain damage or a stroke.
According to an article in the American Journal of Critical Care Medicine, even medical professionals have a hard time telling the difference in pupil size.7 Nurses were asked to evaluate pupils by looking at pictures and by observing patients. The study's researchers found that the larger a person's pupils were, the less likely a person was to estimate them correctly. Only 33% of nurses correctly identified pictures of people with pupils larger than 4 millimeters.8
Parents often notice dilated pupils before other signs of drug use. Dilated pupils are potentially a sign of a serious medical condition, not just a substance use disorder. That is why you should always talk to a doctor regarding possible medical conditions or concerns.
There are two key systems in the body that control pupil size.
Doctors also call this the fight-or-flight mechanism. Fight-or-flight is usually triggered when a person feels a significant amount of stress, anxiety, or fear. The body signals itself in several ways to escape the situation. Examples include increasing the heart rate to pump more blood to the heart, lungs, and brain. Another is to dilate the pupils. If a person is afraid in the dark, the pupils usually get bigger to let in more light to see the surroundings better. More information from the eyes allows the body to make a better judgment about the fear or stress.
The parasympathetic response is the part of the body that doctors call the "rest-and-digest" system. The rest-and-digest system is the opposite of the sympathetic nervous system. When a person activates this system, the pupils get smaller to reduce the amount of new information the body needs to evaluate. Drugs can reduce the response to this system, resulting in larger than normal pupils.
Here are some different drugs that cause dilated pupils.
Adderall is prescribed to treat medical conditions like attention-hyperactivity disorder and narcolepsy. The medication is a central nervous stimulant that contains the main ingredients of amphetamine and dextroamphetamine.11
Adderall stimulates the central nervous system, resulting in dilated pupils. In addition to dilated pupils, the heart beats faster, there is an increase in sweat and appetite is decreased.
While Adderall is a legal drug when used as prescribed, some people use the drug illegally. The U.S Drug Enforcement Agency classifies it as a Schedule II drug, which means that it has a high potential for addiction and misuse. Long-term Adderall abuse can result in a substance use disorder.
Students tend to abuse Adderall for two reasons. Some students say they take Adderall to enhance their ability to binge drink. However, this greatly increases the risk of alcohol poisoning.
Other students take Adderall in an attempt to increase focus and stay awake for studying. This is mostly a placebo effect, nor is there much evidence indicating the long-term benefits of adderall as a "study drug".
Overdosing on Adderall can cause psychosis where a person may see and hear things that aren't there.12 In addition to dilated pupils and psychosis, other symptoms of Adderall overdose include:
Adderal abuse can also cause symptoms of schizophrenia.
According to an article in All About Vision, drinking alcohol can cause dilated pupils.13 Reduced reaction from pupils can cause more problems for drivers who have drank alcohol, as eyes will not react well to oncoming headlights, causing temporary blindness.
Other differences eyes may experience due to drinking alcohol include:
According to Cooper Vision, drinking alcohol can affect a person's ability to judge differences in light and dark by as much as 30%.13 This could affect vision at twilight and at night.
Drinking too much can cause eye twitching.
Alcohol dehydrates the whole body, including the eyes.
While temporarily dilated pupils are a short-term effect of alcohol use, chronic alcohol abuse can lead to long-term damage to the eyes. Examples of the long-term alcohol effects include increased risks for macular degeneration, higher likelihood to form cataracts, and decreased vision because of vitamin deficiencies.15
Lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD) or acid is a drug that people take to induce hallucinations or "trip."9 Street names for acid include:
LSD can last for a long time in the body – sometimes as long as 12 hours.10 One of the signs of use includes dilated pupils. Other signs include:
Sometimes when a person takes LSD, one goes on a "trip" that has colors appear more vibrant and sensations becoming altered pleasantly. But bad trips can make the person see frightening images or feel sensations of panic and confusion.
If a light does not move a person's pupil at all, you should go to the nearest emergency room. If the pupils move but are still impaired, symptoms can include:
Eye irritation
Increased light sensitivity
Problems sleeping
Sunglasses are typically recommended to reduce sensitively to light when the pupils are dilated.
People with dilated pupils should be cautious when driving because the sensitivity to light can impair their driving.
Dilated pupils can cause accidents when operating heavy machinery.
Just as there are drugs that make pupils larger, there are drugs that make pupils smaller. Doctors call this constricting the pupils.20 Painkilling medications, like hydrocodone, morphine, and fentanyl, can make the pupils smaller. So can using drugs like heroin.
When pupils get so small that they are pinpoint (very small), this could be a sign of an overdose. If a person's pupils don't respond at all to changes in light, call 911 as this could be a medical emergency.21
A person who takes drugs that make their pupils smaller may notice their pupils get much larger when getting sober. Once a person goes through withdrawal, the pupils usually go back to normal size.22

B'reisheet - בראשית : "In the beginning"
Torah : Genesis 1:1–6:8
Haftarah : Isaiah 42:5–43:10
Gospel : Matthew 1, 2
The teacher debe Eliyyahu teaches, "The world is to exist six thousand years [corresponding to the six days of creation]. In the first two thousand there was desolation [ending in the flood]; in the next two thousand years the Torah flourished; and the next two thousand years is the Messianic era, but through our many iniquities all these years have been lost. (b.Sanhedrin 97a–b)
God created the heavens and the earth in six days, and on the seventh day He rested. In the Talmud, some of the Sages viewed the seven days of creation as a broad outline for human history, as it says, "For a thousand years in Your sight are like a day when it passes by." (Psalm 90:4) Accordingly, they compared each of the six days to a millennia of history. Various constructs are offered by the Talmud. The seventh day, the day of the Sabbath, is generally understood as a picture of the 7th millennium. In the poetic words of the Sages it is "the day that is altogether Sabbath."
In Tz'enah Ur'enah, a Yiddish collection of traditional Jewish interpretation on the Torah, it says, "Man was created on the sixth day, for within six thousand years the Messiah will come." It seems that the Apostolic community held a similar view of redemptive history. Hebrews chapters 3 and 4 compare the age to come to the Sabbath, and speak of the Sabbath as a foretaste of final salvation. The book of Revelation speaks of a coming millennium of peace, a thousand-year reign of Messiah during which the adversary is bound in chains. The Apostle Peter reminds us that:
With the Lord one day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years like one day. The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance. But the day of the Lord will come like a thief… (2 Peter 3:8–10)
Therefore, the celebration of the weekly Sabbath is a celebration of the coming of the Messiah. The Sabbath offers a weekly foretaste of the era of peace and rest when Messiah will rule the earth. By keeping the Sabbath, we participate in the Kingdom of Heaven on earth even now. Each Sabbath may be likened unto a down payment on the Age of Messiah which is yet to come. "We rest on Shabbat to symbolize the peace that we will have in the days of the Messiah." Perhaps this explains why Yeshua is called "Lord of the Sabbath." (Matthew 12:8)
Though He tarry, we eagerly await the coming return of Messiah who will initiate that 7th millennium, a thousand-year era "that is altogether Sabbath." As of this eDrash, according to the traditional Jewish reckoning, 5,766 of the 6,000 allotted years have already passed. May He come quickly, soon and in our lifetimes.

ALBUM REVIEW: Black Rebel Motorcycle Club preserve impactful rock with Wrong Creatures
There's no point in denying it: Rock music has been usurped. While the reasons for this are tenfold, the lack of overt originality within the scene has remained a detractor from the style's ongoing relevance within popular culture—especially in contrast to all the boundary-pushing within the hip-hop community. Indeed, this struggle to avoid self-plagiarization has become increasingly difficult for West Coast trio Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.
Wrong Creatures
Black Rebel Motorcycle Club
Jan. 12
Luckily, BRMC never dug themselves into any stylistic holes, playing anything from caustic noise rock and West Coast garage rock to gloomy alt-country. This expansive musical palette gives them several avenues they can take during their songwriting process, which is what makes their eighth album, Wrong Creatures, such a refreshing listen. It doesn't feature anything particularly surprising from the band, but it utilizes the most compelling attributes of their previous material to a riveting effect.
Wrong Creatures' five singles show that BRMC has no problem with implementing multiple styles within a singular vision. While the rambunctious garage punk and Tom Waits-esque wordplay of "Little Thing Gone Wild" certainly contrast with the bluesy riffage and harrowing exposé of existential turmoil told through post-punk inflections found in "King of Bones," continuity remains intact thanks to Peter Hayes's vocal jumps from falsetto to baritone and the chemistry the trio has honed over the past 20 years.
Similarly, the glacial balladry and gorgeous arrangements of "Haunt" flows into the transcendent chorus melody and harmonious interplay between Hayes's guitar and Robert Levon Been's bass in "Echo," finding common ground in a pervading influence from gravely Americana allows each aspect of the album to revel in southern gothic. This becomes especially potent in "Questions of Faith," an alt-country dirge with one foot in electro-blues and the other in rousing spirituals, but underlying grit remains the focal point through much of the album.
Possibly the most compelling aspect of Wrong Creatures is how well it functions both as a unified concept and a track-by-track experience. The aforementioned tracks certainly stand on their own right, but the way they fit into the album experience makes them even more enjoyable. "DFF" begins the LP with just under two minutes of ritualistic ambiance, emphasizing the aura BRMC creates with their music. Catchier psych-punk tracks like "Spook" carry an emotional weight unprecedented for that approach, which in turn give their raw simplicity a far more memorable impact, but the undeniable musicality of the band truly manifests in more sprawling cuts.
"Ninth Configuration" and "Calling Them on Way," respectively the longest and second longest songs on Wrong Creatures, provide the most clear-cut examples of how incredibly natural these three musicians sound while playing together. The former reaches a feel akin to The Smashing Pumpkins at their most spacious, with Leah Shapiro's steadfast half-time beat giving Been ample room to assume a melodic role as easily as low-end rhythm support while Hayes's guitar explores the stratospheres of washed-out shoegaze.
By contrast, the intimate soundscapes of the latter cut almost drive the band into chamber post-rock with its massive sound. As vocals melt into the seismic guitar swells riffs, middle-eastern nuances increase the song's otherworldly aura. When coupled with themes surrounding mortality and the human condition, the resulting narcotic voyage will surely leave listeners floored. However, BRMC isn't afraid to have some fun within their darkened themes.
Easily the riskiest and most appropriately titled track on Wrong Creatures, "Circus Bazooko" somehow manages to combine literal circus music with a psych-rock rhythm structure. They don't apologize for the strange vibe, gleefully allowing organ lines to clash with vocal melodies and underlying modulations in an encapsulation of their ongoing use of dark humor to illustrate the heavy issues they tackle. This tonal adaptability is what keeps the album flowing and constantly taking different directions. Even with a more familiar blues-gaze outing like "Carried from the Start," the creativity of these three musicians finds the perfect nucleus.
Never one to leave listeners without throwing one last curveball, BRMC ends Wrong Creatures with the satisfying "All Rise." At once a piano-driven power ballad and an oceanic shoegaze journey, this track closes out an incredibly solid record with a celebration of the extremes they so seamlessly combine throughout this record. Though predominantly concerned with death, mortality and the human condition, this final cut leaves listeners with a sense of hope and resolve in the midst of melancholy.
Even though the sounds present on Wrong Creatures aren't breaking new ground for the band, what they bring to the table is something many modern rock bands struggle to find—their own sound. There's only one Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, and as their continued success makes encouragingly clear, rock music can indeed still be impactful, aesthetically pleasing and reviving.

Horses Love Our Flexible Horseshoes! Metal shoes prevent over 80% of the blood flow that circulates from the hoof to the knee and hock when running or even walking!!! A barefoot horse's hooves naturally flex, pumping their blood back up the leg. The vibration and shock caused by metal shoes is very intense and harmful and doesn't let the hove flex as needed. You can easily prove this increased shock to your self by slamming your barefoot down on cement, then slamming your barefoot with a 1/4 inch piece of metal below your foot with the same force. Simple common sense tells you with the metal under your foot it will surely hurt much more. The shock and vibration is substantially greater too! Vibration and shock is what causes over 80% of ALL the lameness in the knee, tendon, ankle, pastern, hock and of course the hoof. The old saying "No Hoof; No Horse" is very true! NanoFlex shoes are as close to barefoot as you can get!!! These shoes will help over 95% of ALL horses!!! "JUST SIMPLE COMMON SENSE" You'll also notice an increase in happiness in your horse as the difference is very noticeable to them.
As far as race horses are concerned, in a mile race, over 80% will go over one second faster!!! I don't say to put it on all your horses at once, but the common sense thing to do is try them on one horse at a time. Let each horse show you all the above is true! Think of the money you will save on your vet bills and the amount of extra money each horse will earn. The metal shoes are barbaric and go against what nature intended, which is letting the hoof, twist, open, close, and move in every direction. When the frog hits the ground it pumps very little blood. When it is allowed to open and close naturally is when you see the 80% blood circulation increase. Again, "JUST SIMPLE COMMON SENSE" (google "barefoot horse" for interesting stuff).
