How to play the Powerball
To play the Powerball, you have to buy a ticket for $2. You can do this at a variety of locations, including your local convenience store, gas station, or even grocery store. In some states, Powerball 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 69. The red Powerball ranges from 1 to 26. People can also add a 'Power Play' for $1, which increases the winning for all non-jackpot prizes.
The 'Power Play' multiplier can multiply winnings by: 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
If you are feeling unlucky or want the computer to do the work for you, the 'Quick Pick' option is available, where computer-generated numbers will be printed on a Powerball ticket. To win the jackpot, players must match all five white balls in any order and the red Powerball.
Powerball drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights. If no one wins the jackpot, the cash prize will continue to tick up.

Fort Gaines commemorates 161st Battle of Mobile Bay anniversary
DAUPHIN ISLAND, Ala. (WKRG) — A piece of Civil War history was brought back to life on Dauphin Island Saturday as Fort Gaines marked its 161st Battle of Mobile Bay Commemorative Day. For more than 180 years, Fort Gaines has stood watch over Mobile Bay. The annual event invites visitors to step back in time with the echo of cannon fire and the sights of reenactors dressed in uniform, honoring those who fought in one of the pivotal naval battles of the Civil War. 'I had an ancestor who fought, part of the war between the states was here, and he was in the 21st Alabama Company I,' reenactor Bruce Pate said. It's a long-standing tradition on Dauphin Island that gives people the chance to walk in the footsteps of those who came before them. While the history of the Civil War is complicated in American history, Pate said he hopes visitors take away an important message. 'We don't want another war. I don't want that. So, if we learn from our past, we're less likely to do it again,' Pate said. Visitors traveled from across the country to witness the reenactments and explore the historic battlegrounds. Among them were Anna and Zachary Harpel, who drove with their family from Ashland, Kentucky. They shared with News 5 what they took away from being at Fort Gaines. 'The letters that they wrote because some of them were just talking about daily lives,' Zachary Harpel said. 'But then other ones were informing mothers and fathers that their sons had died here.' 'The cannon, it just made me realize, like, how real the war was is,' Anna Harpel said. 'It was just eye opening and just made me realize that these soldiers actually had a life once and were here.' With each fire of the cannon, it served as a salute to those who fought, and the lives lost in the waters of Mobile Bay. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

A Garden in Brooklyn Bridges a Gentrification Divide
Good morning. It's Tuesday. Today we'll find out why a block in Crown Heights is Brooklyn's greenest. We'll also get details on the Trump administration's crackdown on immigration in New York City. People on Eastern Parkway describe the block between Franklin Avenue and Bedford Avenue in Crown Heights as one of the busiest around, with a station where trains from three subway lines stop. They also say it's one of the most organized blocks anywhere, with a block association that tends communal herb gardens and paints benches where passers-by can linger. As of today, they can also describe it as the greenest block in Brooklyn. It won that title, conferred by the Brooklyn Botanic Garden, in an annual contest, beating 10 other finalists from among more than 100 entries. Adrian Benepe, the president of the botanic garden, said that Eastern Parkway was a departure for the contest, which began in the 1990s: It was the first winner from a block made up mostly of apartment buildings. Past winners have been quieter residential blocks with one-to-four-family homes that had 'lots of places to do the greening,' he said. That part of Eastern Parkway has mainly four-to-six-story apartment buildings with smallish front yards. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

After 50 Years of Writing, Jamaica Kincaid Insists She's Still an Amateur
In June, I visited Jamaica Kincaid at her home in Vermont, and not long after we met, she walked me over to a bust of Thomas Jefferson looming over a shaded corner of her garden, introducing me to him like he was an old friend or a hostage. 'Very controversial, but we will explain,' she said. 'When summer is over, he spends the winter in the basement.' Then, she showed me a plant called the twin-leaf, which has one frond divided into two nearly identical leaflets. 'The two halves are not identical — is that Jefferson or no?' Kincaid asked, showing me the fraternal leaves with professorial wonder and not a small amount of delight. Its scientific name, Jeffersonia diphylla, was given to it by the botanist Benjamin Smith Barton, one of Thomas Jefferson's contemporaries, 'before anyone thought of his twin nature,' she said, of the president's duality. Kincaid is an admirer of Jefferson's writing on horticulture, so when she discovered this plant, it appealed to her; she saw that it spoke to his fundamental contradiction as both a theorist of democratic liberty and slaver. 'One has to contemplate these histories,' Kincaid said. 'And so, I find him a good person to have a conversation with.' At 76, Kincaid is both youthful and monumental, a down-to-earth person possessed of a towering intellect. Although she has shrunk some over the years, she still stands at nearly six feet. Her dark brown hair was parted down the center of her scalp, woven into two cute plaits, little commas curling near her shoulders. She wore a silver watch with the clock face on the inside of her wrist as a tribute to her late father. Her laugh, which I heard often, was filtered through her accent, an undulating Antiguan inflection that swayed like a gently rocked boat. Kincaid's sprawling garden sits on a bountiful property in North Bennington, beside a house originally built and inhabited by Robert H. Woodworth, a pioneer of time-lapse photography. Here she begins developing her ideas, influenced by the cultivated wildness outside. In an essay included in her new book, 'Putting Myself Together: Writing, 1974-,' to be published on Aug. 5 by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, she asserts that, rather than creating a garden in the conventional way — overdetermined by the gardener's expectations — she favors a looser approach.
