  • The move to digitize and centralize health records creates a ginormous target for hackers, warn cybersecurity experts.
  • The discovery of the bodies of three murdered teenagers in a West Bank ditch has Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu threatening heightened military efforts to capture the Hamas militants responsible.
  • Farm groups say the EPA's plan to extend its regulatory authority over bodies of water "would really create an incredible overreach that is even greater than we have today."
  • Kentucky's ban on gay marriage is the latest to lose in court, though the ruling remains on hold pending an appeal.
  • The NSA has broad authority to spy on almost the entire world, documents reveal.
  • Fighting intensifies in Ukraine with the end of a cease fire and the resumption of operations against separatists by the country's armed forces.
  • The East Coast's Independence Day festivities could get a soaking from Tropical Storm Arthur.
