The Mega Millions jackpot tops $1 billion. No you didn’t miss it, the next drawing is tonight. This is the third largest Mega Millions pot and the fifth largest prize in lottery history. People are lined up at convenience stores across the country to buy their tickets.

What are your odds of winning? Well I did the math for you, and I found that the odds of winning the jackpot are 302,575,350 to 1, while the odds to match all five white balls are 12,607,306 to 1.

And, today in 2007, Apple announced the iPhone. 25 years ago today, Steve Jobs made the announcement. Smartphones have certainly changed the way we live.
