One of the standout moments at Apple's September iPhone event was the announcement of two new health features on the Apple Watch: hypertension notifications and a new sleep score.

Here’s one cool addition to yesterday’s information about how the Sleep Score feature works on older Apple Watch models: in fact, it even works with third-party accessories, provided they offer a sleep tracking feature.

By way of the nonprofit Israel365, the Israeli government funneled at least $70,000 to 15 MAGA creators to bring them to Gaza’s humanitarian sites, the Western Wall, and the Golan Heights, among other areas. “It sits here to spoil and be stolen,” Xaviaer DuRousseau captioned a
