A ticket from Miami-Dade shared Tuesday's only Florida Lottery jackpot hit
And the Opa-locka winner didn't have to pay for the ticket.
The Mega Millions jackpot will be at $60 million for Friday's drawing after no one held all the numbers Tuesday.

These tickets must be cashed at one of the Florida Lottery district offices or the main office in Tallahassee, each of which is open 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday. You can be a walk-in or make an appointment. The Miami district office is at 14621 Oak Ln. in Miami Lakes, and can be reached at 305-364-3080 or MIARC@flalottery.com.

How to play the Mega Millions To play the Mega Millions, you have to buy a ticket. You can do this at various locations, including your local convenience store, gas station, or even grocery store. In some states, Mega Millions tickets can be bought online. Once you have your ticket, you need to pick six numbers. Five of them will be white balls with numbers from 1 to 70. The gold Mega Ball ranges from 1 to 24. If you're feeling especially unlucky or don't want to go through the hassle of picking, you can ask for a 'Quick Pick' or an 'Easy Pick.' These options let the computer randomly generate numbers for you. Mega Millions tickets now include a built-in multiplier, which increases non-jackpot prizes by two, three, four, five, or 10 times. Before, players had to pay an extra dollar to add the 'Megaplier.' Where can you buy lottery tickets? Tickets can be purchased in person at gas stations, convenience stores and grocery stores.

The week the plant-based dining movement wilted
This fall, for the first time in four years, meat will be back on the menu at New York City's legendary Eleven Madison Park restaurant. It's a notable about-face for chef Daniel Humm, who had famously eliminated all animal products from his menu—and evangelized a new way forward for fine dining—when the restaurant reemerged after the pandemic. Humm had something of an environmental awakening during Eleven Madison Park's pandemic closure. He realized, he said at the time, that he couldn't go back to business as usual. It was a calculus all sorts of businesses were making. 'Business as usual' had gotten us into the pandemic mess in the first place, and when the world shut down to contain COVID, we saw glimpses of a possible different future: emissions dropped, smog cleared, animals rewilded our landscapes. For Eleven Madison Park, turning away from business as usual meant minding the planet's resources—which meant no more animal products. Compared to plant-based foods, meat and dairy require more land, use more water, and produce more emissions.
