Where is the press release?

Where are the details?

You know, stuff like how you buy the tickets, who is running the raffle, when you expect to have the drawing, and what will happen if you never sell 100 tickets.......

Ummmm.... no, each ticket has a 1/n chance in winning (and n=100 in this example). Each subsequent ticket also has a 1/n chance in winning, but the total odds for each player are 1/n-y, where y=tickets bought. So for someone buying two tickets, there's a 1 in 98 chance of winning, or 1.02%

(Or would that be 1/n-(y+1)? Maybe someone like an accountant can help here.  ;D )

I really suck at math and statistics and probability, but I understand that no matter what the odds are of a flipped coin coming up heads a zillion times in a row, on flip number zillion+1, the odds are still 50/50 that I'll get heads.

Ah, my mistake. My sample pool is undoubtedly biased by the gal I dated for two years in college. She finished in four straight years with a math major, computer science minor, and education certificate, with a 3.96 GPA (she cried for days over the one "B" she received).  Within one year, she had her M.Ed, CPA, and actuarial ticket; the last I heard, she was teaching middle school math.  ::)

Well, arguably, the design on the stamp is the product in the case of collectors.

Although the designs have something to do with it, it is the built in scarcity, due to a limited printing that makes them collectable.

USPS Retail Operations Grossly Mismanaged

(Washington, D.C.) ? Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) today publicized the results of an audit by the United States Postal Service (USPS) Office of Inspector General (IG) on operations at its approximately 1,400 postal retail operations.  The report was obtained by CAGW despite being unavailable on the USPS? IG website.  A postal retail store operates much like a traditional post office except that it features an open display area so that customers can purchase merchandise and stamps without standing in full service lines.

?This report demonstrates that the USPS has no business being in any competitive businesses,? said CAGW Special Projects Director Leslie Paige.  ?If the postal service can?t even adhere to basic accounting standards or determine the financial viability of its retail stores, it should not be permitted to compete freely in the private sector in other commercial activities.?

The report, dated February 28, 2002, discloses that USPS improperly accounted for key financial data.  For example, labor and revenue figures for both the new retail stores and traditional retail post offices were lumped together, making it impossible to determine retail store profitability.  Construction cost estimates were also not reliable, the report said, because the USPS did not itemize the costs of building the facilities.  Also, managers at postal retail outlets failed to implement management controls over store operations, putting the USPS at high risk for financial losses due to theft.

Some of the report?s specific findings were:

? Open merchandise counters designed to expedite customer service were not staffed at a majority of the visited sites;

? Merchandise was not tracked or inventoried at any of the visited sites; and

? Security systems designed to detect theft of stamps and other merchandise did not sense such items when they passed through sensors.
 
USPS? reply to the IG report includes the astonishing assertion that the auditors should not have been trying to determine the stores? profitability at all because ?the vast majority of post offices regardless of format (postal store or traditional) are not profitable, much like component parts of other USPS networks (e.g. individual plants or carrier routes).?  Though the auditors agreed with postal management?s assertion that most post offices are not profitable, they stated that it is still important to evaluate financial performance in order to make decisions.

?At the June hearing before the President?s Commission on Postal Reform, Postmaster General Potter reiterated his long-standing desire to have the USPS compete freely in the private sector and retain profits,? stated Paige.  ?When asked to be specific about what goods USPS would offer, Mr. Potter said the agency should be able to offer anything that makes money, such as beverages, greeting cards, and financial services.  This report clearly shows that the USPS has mismanaged its current retail outlets.  Such financial incompetence should not be rewarded by giving the USPS more freedom to fail and lose millions more ratepayer dollars.?

Citizens Against Government Waste is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating waste, fraud, mismanagement and abuse in government.

I was giving $15 a month to the LSF, but now I will change that to $30 and get 3 tickets a month. That still gets the LSF the same money, but I have a chance to get the rest back and more. If no one else does this, I have a better chance. If others do this that weren't giving before, the LSF gets more money. WIN/WIN!

Please remove me from the raffle and donate my $20 to the LSF endowment fund.

I'm learning of many Biblical objections to gambling. As a matter of fact, I'm thinking about starting a religious campaign to stop the government from fundraising through gambling and the sale of alcohol.

If such a campaign succeeds, and if the government cannot raise funds through gambling and selling alcohol, it will be significantly starved for money. Gambling would end up entirely banned unless it is demonopolized. Alcohol sales are very unlikely to be banned again, so alcohol would most likely be demonopolized.

I don't see the problem with telling the public that the government should stop doing these things. It should stop doing ANYTHING at ALL!

Post by: cathleeninnh on April 26, 2006, 10:57 AM NHFT
I am not sure any strictly religious campaign would be successful in the NH political arena. As part of a larger campaign, it could be very useful. Can demonopolizing and getting government out of these businesses be done in one fell swoop or would we have two tough battles?

I'm not a pharisee. Judgement and punishment are for God alone.

We are supposed to love even our enemies.

If you think Christianity allows violence in its followers, then you have probably not read any of the four gospels of the New Testament.

This leads me to believe that you follow a Nicean version of Christianity, the version created by Emperor Constantine in 325 a.d. at the Council of Nicea.

Quote
The Nicene Creed   
   
We believe in one God
      the Father, the Almighty,
      maker of heaven and earth,
      of all that is, seen and unseen.

We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,
      the only Son of God,
      eternally begotten of the Father,
      God from God, Light from Light,
      true God from true God,
      begotten, not made,
      of one Being with the Father;
      through him all things were made.
      For us and for our salvation
          he came down from heaven,
          was incarnate of the Holy Spirit
          and the Virgin Mary
          and became truly human.
          For our sake he was crucified
          under Pontius Pilate;
          he suffered death and was buried.
          On the third day he rose again
          in accordance with the Scriptures;
          he ascended into heaven
          and is seated at the right hand
          of the Father.
          He will come again in glory
          to judge the living and the dead,
          and his kingdom will  have no end.

We believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord,
          and the giver of life,
      who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
      who with the Father and the Son
          is worshiped and glorified,
      who has spoken through the prophets.
      We believe in the one holy catholic
          (Christian) and apostolic church.
      We acknowledge one baptism
          for the forgiveness of sins.
      We look for the resurrection of the dead,
          and the life of the world to come. Amen.

Must be getting close to $200.  Did Lloyd get a new number yesterday or was he paying for an old one?
Title: Re: Porcupine Raffle to benefit LSFund.org
Post by: Lloyd Danforth on May 14, 2006, 03:18 PM NHFT
No.  I gave Russell 20 bucks in the past intended for the LSF from sales of Atlases. Kevin gave me 20, so, I put 10 of his towards it.
I didn't make it clear and he bought me a couple of tickets.  I kept the numbers and gave him another 20 for the LSF.

Quote from: dead president on April 26, 2006, 12:38 PM NHFTWhat version of the Bible do you read/follow?

I prefer "The Talmud of Jmmanuel". This is the original book of Matthew which was discovered in 1963 in the burial cave of Jmmanuel (who has erroneously been called Jesus Christ) by Greek Catholic priest Isa Rashid.

This book has not been doctored like today's commonly accepted versions of the "Bible" and clearly shows that Jmmanuel's teachings have been changed considerably to meet the requirements of our planetary controllers.

No effort has been spared in the attempt to suppress this book but if you can get your hands on a copy you will undoubtedly find it to be most enlightening.  ;)

Any idea as to where you can get a copy??

Tony Lekas won and donated his winnings (except the silver) back to the LSF and to the NHLA...half to each.  LSF got approx. 550 all together.

We were going to contribute anyway. And we had had the discussion about who we should donate the winnings to. As had others we talked to as well. I am very pleased with the generosity of Tony and everyone who participated. We all won.

Lloyd handed me $10 last night for ticket #1, so I guess Porcupine Raffle #2 has begun. :)

Well................OK!..................nothing there!

On a positive note,  with the help of Kate Marshall and the cooperation of Keith Murphy, I ran a 50/50 raffle at the get together at Murphy's following the Ron Paul Rally  Manchester Republican Picnic on Sunday.
Kate also donated $20.00 outright. Some 'husbands' claimed their wives only allowed them so much cash, bu, Mark Warden, apparently not 'whipped', bought 20 bucks worth of tickets!
The raffle was won by Chris and Kate (Rosie) Richard(s?), one of whom, put the other in a choke hold and donated the money back to the fund.
Thank you Kate M. and Eli for assisting her and, of course, the Richards.
So, when you see The Lloyd approaching with his Big roll of tickets, start reaching for your wallet!

After all.........................IFTC!

If it helps, I don't think Mark Warden is married...

Btw, does the LSF accept donations via credit card or debit card yet? The paypal thing isn't working out for me. I opened my account in Germany using a German bank account and...well, it has severely complicated things.
