Lotteries and the Law of Attraction

Lottery players select their numbers using a wide variety of methods. Some methods are based on logic and mathematical formulas and algorithms. Others are based on new age or occult ‘sciences.’ Some methods can border on wacky but the fact remains that if there were really a sure fire way to pick winning lottery numbers the world would be filled with lottery millionaires. One of the stranger methods touted as a sure fire way to win the lottery is the so called ‘law of attraction.’

The law of attraction has been around for about a century and a half. It first appeared in the US in 1879. The law of attraction says that thoughts can influence events and chance. Throughout the years various hucksters have convinced many otherwise logical people that the law of attraction is real. Insomniacs who are prone to watching late night TV have probably seen infomercial huckster Kevin Trudeau hawking his own take on the law of attraction called ‘your wish is you command.’ Is the law of attraction real? Scientists say no but many new agers believe that you can achieve great wealth by wishing it. The 2006 film called ‘The Secret’ prompted renewed interest in the law of attraction.

A recent blog post claims that lottery players can win those big jackpots by sheer belief and that winning the lottery is not a matter of luck but of will and belief. The author claims that by eliminating doubts and negative thoughts lottery players can improve their chances of winning a large jackpot. Once again, if that were so we would have thousands, if not millions, of big lottery winners. Television host Larry King has discussed the law of attraction on his show and remains critical. King stated, “If the Universe manifests abundance at a mere thought, why is there so much poverty, starvation, and death?” ‘Evidence’ supporting the law of attraction is anecdotal at best and belief in the law of attraction seems to be confined to the gullible and the hucksters that take advantage of them.

Lotteries are games of pure chance and no amount of belief will change the outcome of a drawing. It has been shown time and time again that most winners of mega jackpot lotteries such as Powerball, Mega Millions, EuroMillions and other lotteries have used the ‘quick pick’ option where the random number generator at the lottery terminal selects the numbers. Since lotteries are games of chance everyone has pretty much an equal chance of winning and no amount of belief will change that fact.

What You Should Know About Child Custody Law In Nevada

Comments Off on What You Should Know About Child Custody Law In Nevada

Law

Child custody cases are difficult, expensive and emotional, both for clients and their lawyers. Child custody lawyers should be experienced enough, compassionate enough, and tough enough to either negotiate or litigate the easiest as well as the most complex in contentious custody cases that are pursued in Las Vegas, Nevada. Look for a law firm that has proven it can efficiently and aggressively handle these complex cases on behalf of their clients.

Child custody law in Nevada has undergone dramatic changes as a result of legislative and Nevada Supreme Court decisions.

*There is no longer a tender years doctrine. Mothers are no longer automatically preferred custodians, but have to prove their fitness just as fathers do.

*Nevada law has changed to favor joint legal and joint physical custody arrangements between parents, where the parents have an equal role in child rearing after divorce or separation.

*Non-custodial parents no longer have to settle for a simple every other weekend schedule. Parents are being required to alternate weeks, or divide the weeks equally, unless they can prove why joint physical custody is not in the best interest of their children.

*Las Vegas Child Custody lawyers have to be sharp enough to quickly analyze the given facts to advise their clients about whether to settle for joint physical custody or fight for primary custody. A recent Supreme Court decision has determined a parent having 40% of custody time qualifies as a joint physical custodian.

*Based upon the decision between primary custody and joint physical custody, parents have to deal with changing legal standards. And their decision impacts the amount child support, relocation issues, where the child attends school, tax deductions and other important parenting issues.

*Parents no longer have to have “equal time” to be considered joint physical custodians.

*Complex factors have to be presented to the Court to facilitate a wise decision to serve the best interest of the children, while not destroying the family.

For instance the “best interests of the child” standard is still the paramount consideration of the Court in Las Vegas Child Custody cases; but sometimes the best interests of the child conflict with a parent’s best interests. If the parents share legal and physical custody jointly, there is still child support to be paid by the parent who earns more than the other. The relocation to another state standards change based upon whether the parents share joint physical custody or whether the moving party has primary physical custody.

In Potter v. Potter the Nevada Supreme Court decided to make it extremely difficult for a joint physical custodian to relocate to another state without parental consent. With primary physical custody, a parent can more easily relocate.

Custody lawyers need to know how to advise clients and present custody cases to the Court to help their clients prevail. They should know the nuances in the law, and the individual preferences of the judges on how cases should be handled and presented.

Joint physical custody is easier to get, but it impacts child support and even school issues. Parents sharing physical custody who do not live in the same area of Las Vegas often cannot decide which school the child should attend.

The Nevada Supreme Court in the Rivero v. Rivero decision has further complicated the distinctions drawn between primary and joint physical custodians. Child custody lawyers unfamiliar with the nuances of these recent changes in the law can make litigating a family court case difficult for all parties involved.

Make sure your attorney emphasizes keeping clients informed, and cases are well prepared, so as to ensure the best chances of serving the children’s best interests, be it through settlement or litigation.

Lee and I were in front of a group of corporate employees who would have much rather been spending this time sitting at their computers or having an afternoon break. We had been asked to come in and speak.

Their employer said they needed an attitude adjustment. The employees were bickering, not working together, and stepping on each others’ necks to get to what they thought was the top. The employer was a family man who had come from very little money and had built a business that was successful enough to now have over a hundred employees. “They’re great at their work but they lack any sense of team work or love. I would settle for ‘like’ if they could work together.”

So he hired Lee and I to come in and teach a little about the law of attraction, and how it works. It was a tough crowd at first; no one asking questions, a lot of clearing of throats, but as the afternoon wore on, one or two became interested, then six, seven, followed by most of the crowd. They began firing questions at us, right and left.

“How does the law of attraction affect my relationship with my mother?” “How does the law of attraction help me with my car?”
“Can the law of attraction help with my health?”
“You mean I can work at a job I love and make money at the same time?”

The question and answer period went on for some time. I don’t know about Lee, but I felt the next question coming. It was from a gentleman of about thirty-six years old. “Aw c’mon! The Law of Attraction is a selfish law. It makes you only think of yourself. Selfish! What do you say to that?” The room was dead silent. Everyone wanted to hear the answer.

Lee and I had heard this comment before, usually from the same kind of person: a hard nosed reporter type who always seems to contradict anything that doesn’t fit into his world.

Lee took the question this time. Lee slowly smiled. “Sir, what do you want out of life?” The reporter bellowed back at Lee, “Just answer my question.”
“I am answering your question. But first, what do you want out of the life? What would you do with life if you had it all? Where would you go tomorrow if you didn’t have to work?”

“I would go fishing. So?” he snarled, in a bid to antagonize Lee.

“Why would you go fishing?” Lee baited.

“Makes me happy. Would you answer my question?” the “reporter” demanded impatiently.

“Makes you happy Sir, that is the Law of Attraction. Being happy with your life is not selfish. The Law of Attraction works whether you believe it or not. When you are aware of the Law of Attraction, and you start focusing on your “wants” and not your “don’t wants,” all you are seeking is happiness. If you are happy, then your spouse will be happy, if your family is happy, you will be happy, and if you are happy then your boss will be happy and so on and so on. So being happy with life, which is the ultimate goal in applying the law of attraction, is not selfish. So many people will benefit from your happiness, and when those people are happy it just keeps spreading. So Sir, if fishing makes you happy, does that make you selfish? I don’t believe it does. applying the law of attraction is the least selfish thing that anyone can do.”

The audience gave Lee a standing ovation and the “reporter” sat down.

When you think and feel what you want, and pay less attention to what you don’t want, this will bring you situations and people in your life that will make you happy. Being happy isn’t selfish. Being happy will help everyone around you.

The ultimate goal is to live your life and be happy while doing it. Wanting to get up in the morning when your job feels like play, and enjoying life exactly as you want your life to be through the Law of Attraction. That isn’t the pursuit of happiness; it is the realization of happiness.

Comments Off on Basic Laws Of Electronics

Thanks to the physical laws of electronics, circuit analysis is very procedural. This is the second entry in a tutorial in basic electronics. The first entry covered basic electronic concepts such as voltage, current, and power. This session will cover Ohm’s Law, and Kirchhoff’s Laws of voltage and current. These are the fundamental laws needed for circuit analysis and design.

Resistors and Ohm’s Law
Georg Simon Ohm was a German physicist that in 1826 experimentally determined most basic laws that relate to voltage and current for a resistor.

Ohm’s law basically states that the resistance of a component (commonly a resistor) is equal to the voltage dropped over the resistor divided by the current going through it.

This law makes it relatively easy to find one of three values: voltage across a resistance, the resistance value itself, or the current flowing through the resistance (as long as the other two values are known).

Nodes, Branches, and Loops
These three concepts must be understood for basic circuit analysis. They help determine if components are in series or parallel and if the components share the same current or have the same voltage drops.

A branch represents a single circuit component such as a resistor or voltage source.

A node is a point where two or more branches connect.

A loop is any closed path in a circuit.

Elements are in series if they exclusively share a single node. Elements that are in series share the same current.

Elements are in parallel if they are connected to the same two nodes. Elements in parallel have the same voltage across them.

Kirchhoff’s Laws
The first of Kirchhoff’s Laws is Kirchhoff’s current law (KCL). This law states that the sum of all current entering a node or enclosed area of a circuit is equal to zero. Simply put, current entering a node or area equals the current leaving the node or area.

The second of Kirchhoff’s Laws is Kirchhoff’s voltage law (KVL). This law states that the sum of all voltages around a closed path or loop is equal to zero. Simply put, the sum of voltage drops equals the sum of voltage rises.

This is found by following the loop in one direction (the direction does not matter). If the positive terminal is hit first, the voltage is added. If the negative terminal is hit first, the voltage is subtracted. Together these values will equal zero.

Once all of the voltages are found, we can start the loop anywhere we want. I find it convenient to start at the negative terminal of a main voltage source. Since we hit a negative terminal first, we subtract it. Now we simply finish the loop and add the voltages together.

This law comes in very handy for analysis.

Basic DC Analysis
By combining Kirchhoff’s voltage and current laws, basic DC circuits are relatively easy to analyze. Knowing that all voltages in a loop add up to zero and all currents entering a node, minus currents leaving a node also equals zero, most current and voltage values can be easily obtained.

If a loop contains one voltage source and multiple resistances, voltage division (eq. 1) should be used to find the value of voltage drops across the known resistances. Once the voltage across the known resistance is found, Ohm’s law (eq. 2) can be used to determine the current flowing through the resistance.

Eq.1 Voltage Division:
((voltage source in volts) (resistor of interest in ohms))/(sum of resistance in loop)

Eq.2 Ohm’s Law:
(voltage across a resistance) = (known resistance)(current flowing through resistance)

Keep in mind that resistors in series can be added to give total resistance between two nodes. The total resistance between two nodes that have resistors in parallel is found using eq. 3 below.

Eq. 3 Equivalent Resistance (Req) of Resistors in parallel:
Req = ((resistance in branch 1)(resistance in branch 2)) / (sum of resistances in both branches)

There is much more to be said about DC circuit analysis but most would go beyond the scope of this article. The purpose of this article is to give a basic understanding of the laws and concepts of basic electronics.

Other concepts that make DC circuit analysis easier are current division, mesh analysis, and nodal analysis. These techniques use the rules behind KVL, KCL, and Ohm’s Law but would require a visual example for thorough explanation.

I hope that this short tutorial has been helpful to anyone who is new to the world of electronics either as a hobbyist or as a technician trying to learn electronics repair.

How Did the Law of Attraction Change My Life?
One day I was browsing in a book store when a book caught my attention. It is a book by Esther Hicks, The Law of Attraction: the Basics of Teachings of Abraham.
The book taught the three universal Laws of Attraction. I have learned and applied the Law of Attraction to my life and suddenly my life started to turn around.
The Three Universal Laws of the Law of Attraction
1. The Essence of That Which Is Like onto Itself, Is Drawn
2. The Science of Deliberate Creating
3. The Art of Allowing
The Law of Attraction changed my life with such confirmations as:
I AM the attractor and creator of my own life experience
My every story is attracting its vibrational match
Think of myself as I would want to be
Whatever I desire I can acquire
Achieving is my natural birthright
Money is the root of evil or of happiness
I can have money and freedom, too
Whenever I am feeling good, I am attracting good
The better my story gets, the better my life gets
We are each responsible for the thoughts we think
I can make a career of living happily ever after
My career is one of creating a joyful life experience
My life is as good as I allow it to be
I am always receiving the Essence of what I am
Love and appreciate everyone and everything in my life
In my appreciation I allow myself to receive wonderful things
I can transform my own world
I can create both money and the time to enjoy it
I can earn money by doing what I love to do
Life is always working out for me

Once I started to apply the Law of Attraction with those affirmations, my life began to change and good things started flushing into my life in every area.
Apply the Law of Attraction
I have attracted the most desirable marriage to the most perfect man – the secret to attract the best relationship
I have attracted great money-making opportunities and making great money – the secret to attract financial abundance
I have attracted many endless wonderful things in my life – the secret to attract all good things
My life has been ever expanding with Law of Attraction, but at the same time I am maintaining peace and freedom in my life. I enjoy doing what I do and making great money doing it.
The Law of Attraction Is the Most Powerful Law
If anyone told me a few years ago that my life would be changed in such a tremendous way by a book, a concept, a way of thinking, I wouldn’t believe it possible.
You know what? Today I know I am living the Law of Attraction.
The Law of Attraction changed my life forever
The Wealth Builder is a platform that people are learning to change their lives while making great money through online marketing.
Like the Law of Attraction, the system has changed many people’s lives. When you take a moment and watch the video your life will never be the same.
Let the Law of Attraction Change Your Life Too
