Michigan Lottery player has a $1 million Powerball prize waiting
The Michigan Lottery said the lucky player matched five white balls in Monday's drawing to win $1 million: 08-12-45-46-63. The red number was 24.
"A lucky Michigander woke up this morning to news that they won $1 million playing Powerball at MichiganLottery.com," said Lottery Commissioner Suzanna Shkreli. "Winning $1 million would be a dream come true for many Lottery players, and I want to be the first to congratulate the player on their big win!"
Although there was a "match 5" winner in Michigan and a "match 5 plus power play" winner in Arizona, no one won the Powerball jackpot that required a perfect match on the ticket to all white numbers and the additional red number.
All lower-tier prizes in the Powerball game are set amounts. The jackpots grow until someone wins the top prize.
The next Powerball drawing is Wednesday night, with an estimated jackpot of $264 million. Tickets are $2 in most participating states, including Michigan. A "power play" option that can boost the lower-level prize amounts is an additional $1.
Michigan's winner should contact the Lottery's Player Relations division at 844-917-6325 to make arrangements to claim the prize. Powerball prizes must be claimed within one year from the date of the drawing.

This Shark Steam Mop Vacuums and Sanitizes Too
To me, mopping is like filing my taxes or changing my oil. A necessary evil that I dread, a task that I procrastinate until I have no other choice. Luckily, I've been testing steam mops, which means I stopped mopping entirely in order to assess how well each model cleans. The floors of my 250-square-foot high-traffic kitchen have been … how do I put this … really gross. But so far, the Shark Steam Pickup 3-in-1 has ticked every box in what I'm looking for when it comes to an effective steam mop that can bust through shoe-sticking grime. Suck It Up Photograph: Louryn Strampe Putting the Shark Steam Pickup 3-in-1 together was easy. Slot in the handle and fill up the clean water tank, which holds 0.42 liters. Then plug the mop into a wall outlet (the cord is 25 feet long) and press the button to pick a steam level—there are Light, Medium, and Deep cleaning options. Tilt the floor cleaner head down to sit flush with your cleaning surface, and give it about 20 seconds to start generating steam. Then you're ready to go. As I mentioned earlier, I hadn't mopped for a month in preparation to test this, and I was surprised at how efficiently the Steam Pickup 3-in-1 worked. The built-in suction is probably my favorite feature of this mop, and it's also what sets it apart from some other hard-floor cleaners. It vacuums as it mops, which means you don't have to pre-sweep your floors beforehand. And it did this efficiently, too, picking up crumbs and stray hair with no issues. The head has two built-in lights that help illuminate anything you might've missed, which was really nice to have near the dark and scary corners near my fridge. And the steam it emits sanitizes your floors through the magic of high heat. This lightweight 7-pound mop has a built-in brush roll that scrubs as it goes. I encountered a few stuck-on messes, like a ketchup spill or shoe dirt in front of the kitchen sink, and this mop busted through all of them. There was only one time that I needed to help it out, and it was to peel a fruit sticker that was stuck to my tile floors. But once I peeled the sticker back a bit, the mop sucked it up like it did the rest of my messes. And it was much quieter than I expected throughout the whole cleaning process. Steam It Clean Photograph: Louryn Strampe Photograph: Louryn Strampe While this mop did manage to leave the majority of my floors sparkling clean, it did struggle a bit on the edges of my baseboards. I just let it steam over each section for a few seconds before moving the machine back and forth, and I switched up my cleaning paths and directions frequently. This helped the process go more smoothly. I didn't notice any excess water, aside from once when I picked up the machine and set it down with some force. (I just sucked up the spilled water.) It didn't leave any streaks or stickiness, and the vacuum function meant my floors dried quickly. All in all, it only took me 30 minutes to clean my disgusting kitchen floors. For maintenance cleaning, it took 10. Maybe I'll be a more frequent mopper thanks to this little gadget. When you're done mopping, the machine is also very easy to clean—which you should do every time you use the mop. Let everything cool off for two or three minutes, then remove the top cover of the cleaning head. There's a collection bin inside that sorts wet messes and dry messes into two different compartments. I just rinsed the whole tray out over my garbage disposal, but this feature is nice for separately dumping out crumbs into the trash and dumping liquid down the drain.

Why Access to Running Water Is a Luxury in Wealthy US Cities
By and Klara Auerbach Across the world, access to clean running water has long been considered a key marker of economic advancement. Yet in several of the most prosperous cities in the richest nation on Earth, the share of households living without that critical service is climbing—a trend that researchers say demands attention, particularly as President Donald Trump moves to sharply pare back federal funding for water infrastructure. Katie Meehan, a professor of environmental justice at King's College London, has for years been studying what she and other researchers call 'plumbing poverty' in the US. Utility shut-offs because of nonpayment or substandard housing where landlords fail to properly maintain properties are the main factors behind the problem.

Can you legally leave your child home alone in NY? What parents should know
For many working parents, finding a reliable babysitter or securing a spot at a summer camp isn't always easy. That leaves some wondering: Can I leave my child home alone? And if that's the only option—how young is too young? What's the legal age to leave a child home alone in NY? Unlike some states, New York does not set a legal minimum age for leaving children home alone. According to the New York State Office of Children and Family Services, children mature at different rates, and some may have special needs or abilities. Therefore, it's up to parents or guardians to make thoughtful, informed decisions. When making that decision, consider: Maturity: Has your child shown the ability to handle responsibility? Preparedness: Can they manage basic tasks like preparing food or knowing what to do in an emergency? Circumstances: How long will they be alone, and in what setting? Very young children, of course, should never be left unsupervised. While there's no law in New York setting a specific age, parents can still face legal consequences—such as child endangerment—if something goes wrong while a child is left home alone. How to decide if your child is ready Though there is no one-size-fits-all answer, suggests that most children are ready to stay home alone around age 12 or 13, depending on their maturity. Experts also recommend looking at your child's behavior at school. If your child tends to follow rules and act responsibly in a structured environment, that's a good sign they may be ready for some unsupervised time at home. If they tend to misbehave or push boundaries, it may be wise to wait.
