Lady Luck smiled on a Wilmington man not once, but twice. A 34-year-old Wilmington man hit Delaware Lottery's PLAY 5 game twice in four days, winning more than $300,000, according to the Delaware Lottery. The man, who has chosen to remain anonymous, claimed two $50,000 tickets and two $10,000 tickets from the June 9 PLAY 5 day drawing after matching all five winning numbers: 1-0-0-0-0. He returned to Delaware Lottery headquarters on June 16 to claim another stunning prize – $200,000 from the June 13 day drawing where he had four tickets each worth $50,000. The winning numbers on the second victory were 5-0-1-5-9. The tickets were purchased at the New Castle Shell in New Castle. The Wilmington man said he's played the lottery for five years and spends about $50 on tickets each time. He picks his numbers. For the June 9 win, he based his number selection on his old phone number. For the second victory, the number was inspired by his grandfather, who often played 5-0-1-5 in PLAY 4. The winner decided to build off that tradition by adding a fifth digit, and it paid off. Lottery winner: New Castle man wins $50,000 playing Delaware Lottery.

The cruel act that left happy-go-lucky student at $40,000-a-year private school isolated, suffering PTSD and working at a supermarket
A former student is suing his prestigious Melbourne grammar school after he began suffering from a post-traumatic stress disorder after a violent incident on campus. The young man - who has asked to remain anonymous - alleged a fellow student at Caulfield Grammar School poured hot liquid over his head and face in late 2019. 'At 15 years old, I was just settling into a new school with high hopes and big dreams,'the now-20-year-old said in a statement shared with Daily Mail Australia. 'What happened to me wasn't an accident; it wasn't a misunderstanding. It was an act of cruelty, and I was the target. 'The physical pain was horrible, but the emotional damage has stayed with me far longer.' In a writ filed with Victoria's County Court on June 17, the former student listed injuries including post-traumatic stress disorder, scarring, and pain and shock. He said he incurred hospital and medical expenses, as well as claiming a loss of earnings and loss of earning capacity. 'As a result of his injury, the Plaintiff repeated Year 10 and did a non-scored VCE in 2020. Presently, (he) is working in a supermarket,' the writ said. 'I haven't been the same. My mum said I used to be happy-go-lucky, always smiling, always social,' he said. 'Now I rarely go out with friends, and I often feel isolated. I don't trust easily, not after what happened. That one moment changed the trajectory of my life.' He described how, to most people, he looks 'fine' but added: 'When I'm out in the sun, the affected skin reacts, and I also suffer from severe PTSD'. The writ describes at least 15 alleged failings by Caulfield Grammar which the young man's solicitor Aristea Nikolakakis, from Shine Lawyers, has outlined. 'We allege the school was warned about this student's propensity for violence and yet did nothing to protect our client,' she said in a statement. 'We allege our client had been physically threatened by this student in the past and yet nothing was done to keep him safe.' She alleged the school breached its duty of care to the young man by not taking action over the threat and that it had 'ample warning' that he was 'in danger'. 'This wasn't an isolated issue,' Ms Nikolakakis said. 'This was an ongoing situation the school was aware of between the other student and my client, and the school failed to protect my client by intervening when they should have.' The young man said the management of the alleged incident on the school's Wheelers Hill campus is 'what made it worse' and claimed teachers assumed he was at fault because he was new. 'They believed the other student, someone who had been there longer. The school did me a disservice, not only by failing to hold the student accountable in a meaningful way, but also by failing to support me during... and after the incident,' he said. He also said Caulfield Grammar never called an ambulance and that his 18-year-old brother had to take him to the hospital. 'I had strong ambitions, especially in soccer,' he said, adding that a change of rules then stumped his hopes of earning the role of captain. 'That leadership role, that recognition of my hard work, was taken away, just like everything else that year. 'I still wonder what life might have looked like if that incident had never happened.' Daily Mail Australia has contacted Caulfield Grammar for comment.

Mounjaro has cured me of these three common life-limiting conditions. I'm healthier now at 60 than I was at 40...
Since mid-January, I've been hiding a secret drug habit. Once a week I sneak off and jab myself with a syringe I bought online. Aged 60, I am one of the fast-growing band of midlife women using 'skinny jabs' even though I'm not obese (I'm 5ft 7in tall, back then weighed 13st and I don't have diabetes.)
