The malware was capable of stealing passwords, encrypted messages, chat histories, location data and the iPhone’s complete contacts database.

Travis Tritt and Marty Stuart mounted their challenge to headgear hegemony earlier this year on their “No Hats” tour; Tritt takes another shot on his new album, “t-r-o-u-b-l-e.” Bracketed by homages to Elvis (the title song, a hit for Presley in 1975) and bluesman Buddy Guy (“Leave My Girl Alone”), the album flouts the prim tidiness of much of country’s new traditionalism. Tradition, Tritt’s music says, is where you find it: in the blues, in rock, in Southern boogie....

Although hints of the crimes became public only last year, franchisees say they have been giving executives gifts and money to ensure preferential treatment for nearly two decades.

The man, who has not been named, was sucked into a 4-foot-wide storm drain in Kihei on Friday while attempting to clear it of debris. He was then dragged 800 yards through the drain to where it exited into the sea. “There were crews from our county public works there as well, who were able to provide quick information on what the path was for the drain, and where eventually anything flowing through the storm drain, would end up,” Mahina Martin, chief of Communications and Public Affairs for Maui County, told Hawaii News Now....

The live updates for this blog have ended. “The H-1 freeway and several roads in town are experiencing considerable flooding, so limit travel wherever possible,” the department said.

PSYCHEDELIC SMOKES MOVE OVER, Joe Camel. Kids are rediscovering Indian smokes called bidis (or ““beedies’’), which are flavored with strawberry and chocolate and come in psychedelic packages. They’re cheaper than most cigs and pack enough nicotine to induce a buzz. No wonder sales are growing. One survey of San Francisco high schoolers suggests that 60 percent have tried beedies–and that half don’t know they cause cancer. SLEEP FOR SALE THIS IS NO MERE PILLOW FIGHT....

The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA) estimates that 3.2 million cats enter animal shelters in the U.S. every year. While as many as 2.1 million of those felines will be adopted, many still struggle to find a new forever home. That’s certainly proving the case for Bell, the cat who features in a video posted to TikTok by Gaston County Animal Care & Enforcement. The distressing footage has been viewed 7....

Last week, animal campaigners involved with the Dog Meat Free Indonesia coalition rescued more than 50 dogs on the island of Java after police intercepted a truck that had just arrived at the illegal slaughterhouse. The dogs—most of which are stolen pets—had arrived at the slaughterhouse in Java’s central Sukoharjo Regency following a grueling 10-hour journey crammed together in the back of the truck. According to animal rights group Humane Society International (HSI), which forms part of the coalition, many of the dogs were emaciated when they were found....
