Trump Deletes Mistaken 'Phillies' Tweet: Ahead of his visit to Philadelphia Wednesday, Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump accidentally tweeted "Phillies.” Maybe he had the City of Brotherly Love’s beloved baseball team on his mind when he used the death of longtime conservative advocate Phyllis Schlafly to promote her new book about him. "As a tribute to the late, great Phillies Schlafly, I hope everybody can go out and get her latest book, THE CONSERVATIVE CASE FOR TRUMP," tweeted Trump Tuesday morning. He later deleted the tweet and resent it with the proper spelling of Schlafly’s first name.

WHAT YOU MISSED YESTERDAY

Boat Trip on NJ Lake Turns Bloody in Hit-And-Run: Police are searching for the boat operator who slammed into another boat on a New Jersey lake Monday  evening, hurting the two couples on the vessel. The victims' 18-foot Bayliner boat was on Greenwood Lake in West Milford Township in Passaic County when another vessel -- possibly a ski boat -- hit the back of it, seriously hurting 72-year-old Edwin Lane of West Milford and 76-year-old Robert Roon of Newfoundland, state police say. Their wives, 74-year-old Mary Lane and 70-year-old Eileen Roon, were also injured but not as seriously, and were able to help their husbands and navigate back to the dock. "My husband's unconscious, head back, blood gurgling out. The other gentleman, he's out, unconscious," Maureen Lane recounted to NBC 4 New York Tuesday. "The cowling from the motor is in the middle of the aisle, I had to try to move that, climb over it." The men were flown to St. Joseph's Hospital in Paterson, where they remain in critical condition. Authorities say the other boat may have gone airborne before speeding off. But no one's certain what hit them or where it went because of the low visibility.

AROUND THE WORLD

3 Space Station Crew Members Back on Earth: After watching more than 2,750 sunrises from above the Earth, three crew members of the International Space Station returned to the planet for a sparkling sunrise back on Earth Wednesday. A record-setting American astronaut and his two Russian colleagues felt the sun beat down on them on a cloudless morning after a six-month trek in orbit. NASA's Jeff Williams returned as the U.S. record holder for time in orbit, logging 534 days in space over four missions. Williams, Alexey Ovchinin and Oleg Skripochka logged 72.8 million miles in space, circling the globe 2,752 times before landing on target in the south central steppes of Kazakhstan just 23 minutes after sunrise Wednesday, 7:13 a.m. local time (1:13 a.m. GMT).

TODAY'S TALKER

Apple to Show Off New iPhone: Apple is expected to show off new iPhones, an updated smartwatch — and maybe some new gear for listening to both — during its annual fall product launch event Wednesday. Hard-core Apple fans will be watching closely for details about the newest features coming to Apple's gadgets, from a widely anticipated dual-lens camera for the iPhone to a rumored GPS sensor in the Apple Watch.But even casual users of consumer technology may be interested to see if Apple follows through on reports that it's eliminating the iPhone's analog headphone jack, since that could pave the way for a big shift in the way people listen to digital music.Getting rid of the traditional analog jack means future iPhone owners will need earbuds or headphones that use a digital connection, either through a wireless signal like Bluetooth or a cord that fits in the same port used for recharging the device.
