Federal officials recently shared a warning about a practice known as “Juice Jacking” that officials said allows hackers to access data on phones using some public power outlets or public charging stations.In the wake of this warning, officials have also shared ways individuals can protect themselves. “They download your information, or make a copy of it, or infect your iPhone, where they can do damage to other systems or shut down your iPhone completely,” cybersecurity expert Kevin Powers told 7NEWS. The dangerous trend takes advantage of free charging stations in public places, such as airports, hotels and shopping centers. The FBI posted a message about the trend earlier this month, writing on Twitter that “Bad actors have figured out ways to use public USB ports to introduce malware and monitoring software onto devices.” “When you put in your USB and you plug in what happens to you, unbeknownst to you, is that there is a third party ...Arrest made in connection with shooting in Lawrence

Looking at the Knicks, a team facing a series of daunting tasks against the Cavaliers, the best reason to feel optimistic about a playoff upset is the same reason their season was such a pleasant surprise.Jalen Brunson.Two years ago, Tom Thibodeau trotted out Elfrid Payton as the starting point guard. The Knicks, as you might recall, were outmatched over five games by the Hawks. The coach still makes the excuse that the series changed because of a loose ball near the end of Game 2, which is overlooking Payton’s deterioration and the duds from Julius Randle and RJ Barrett.But now the Knicks have Brunson, the same player who a year ago outplayed Donovan Mitchell in a first-round series between the Mavs and Jazz.“He’s always played his best in big games,” Thibodeau said. “We all knew that. That’s just who he is. He’s gotten better every year. And his game translates. He can think on his feet.”New York’s need for ‘Big Game̵...Cambridge church’s steeple is removed after 6-alarm fire on Easter, Faith Lutheran raises money to rebuild

Published Mon, 23 Dec 2024 12:37:02 GMT
ALBANY, N.Y. — New York joined other Democratic-led states Tuesday in stockpiling abortion pills in response to a Texas court ruling that could limit access to the commonly used drug.At the governor’s direction, the state Department of Health will begin purchasing 150,000 doses of misoprostol, one of two commonly used abortion-inducing drugs, New York Governor Kathy Hochul announced.“This isn’t just an attack on abortion, this is an attack on democracy,” the Democratic governor said, adding that she wouldn’t let “one extremist judge turn back the clock” on reproductive care.New Yorkers will continue to have access to medication abortion “no matter what,” she said. If the drug is taken off the market, Hochul said the state will provide $20 million to providers in order to bolster access to other methods of care.Hochul is the latest Democratic governor to announce the stockpiling of abortion medication after two federal judges issu...Yankees Notebook: Carlos Rodon throwing but delayed by back tightness

Carlos Rodon recently experienced some back stiffness while recovering from a left forearm strain suffered early in spring training, but Aaron Boone said the southpaw threw on Tuesday and is scheduled for a Wednesday bullpen.If that goes well, Rodon will throw a live BP session on Friday. While Rodon’s forearm has felt fine, Boone said that an end-of-April return now “seems a little aggressive” for the pitcher.“We’re certainly not gonna rush it just to do it,” Boone said. “We want to make sure he’s in a good spot and built [up] properly.”Rodon, the Yankees’ most significant addition of the offseason, has dealt with injuries in the past, including a similar forearm issue that he pitched through with San Francisco last May. Still, the Yankees felt comfortable giving him a six-year, $162 million contract in December.That’s partly because Rodon is coming off two straight All-Star seasons with the White Sox and Giants.

Why is UMass buying 15,000 doses of the abortion pill mifepristone?Because they quickly can, according to a spokesperson for Gov. Maura Healey.The $675,000 purchase is in response to a Texas-based judge’s decision to ban access to the drug considered the nation’s most commonly used method of abortion. The purchase also circumvents the order of U.S. District Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk that has states all across the country scrambling.“UMass already had all necessary certifications to purchase mifepristone and currently provides medication abortion through their university health services,” the spokesperson said. “They were willing and able to jump into action quickly when we made the request.”Last Friday, in response to a lawsuit filed on behalf of a religious liberty group, Kacsmaryk issued a nationwide ban on the FDA-approved drug which is scheduled to go into effect this Friday, pending other legal filings which may stay or delay the ban.According to his ruling, Kacsmaryk felt plaint...Idaho jurors see graphic photos of slain kids in mom’s trial
