The jackpot is the second-largest prize in Powerball’s 30-year history.

There have been 38 draws in a row with no jackpot winner. The last grand prize was to a ticket on August 3 for a $206.9 million pot.

There are no restrictions that prohibit Canadians from playing the Powerball lottery. Tickets can be bought online.

They’re calling it the World’s Largest, the $600 puzzle is 29 feet long and a map of the world. It looks like its only available in the U.S. at the moment.

The jigsaw can be divided into 60 smaller puzzles to make it easier to tackle. It features a map of the world with different famous landmarks in place of the ocean.
