For years you’ve heard that if your phone gets wet, you should put it in a bag of rice. That might work with some phones, but not the iPhone. Apple says that might “allow small particles of rice to damage your iPhone.” The company also recommended against using other well-known hacks, such as using an external heat source to dry the phone or sticking a cotton swab into the connector.
The game everyone around here is talking about…
Mark Foerster will have coverage all week on the WMUN Power Hour, plus the game live Saturday from Gainbridge Fieldhouse with special expanded pregame plans.
Senator and Indiana Gubernatorial candidate Mike Braun reportedly missed that spending package vote early Saturday morning. Fox 59 seems to say the reason depends on who you hear from: a Braun Senior Advisor said Braun attended a Friday event that ended at 7:00 p.m.; he had a seat on a 9:25 p.m. flight to D.C., but since no votes were scheduled at that time, he decided to spend the night at home and fly out Saturday morning. Then a vote was then scheduled for Saturday at 1:51 a.m. The measure passed by a vote of 74-24. Indiana Democratic Party Chair Mike Schmuhl also released a statement, which included, “Someone should tell Mike Braun that if he doesn’t want to do his job, he can just retire — not run for yet another office and waste Hoosiers’ time.”
