Powerball: More power to the powerful

And the rich get richer: Senator Judd Gregg of New Hampshire won $853,492 (before taxes) in Wednesday's Powerball lottery. He'll end up with about $500,000. "Gregg said he does not frequently play the lottery and has no intention of doing so again soon. He spent $20 on Powerball tickets, allowing the machine to select all of his numbers randomly." Some of the money, he says, will go to charity.
