State laws varied on issues Gun, abortion laws uneven in U.S. MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — The U.S. Supreme Court says women in America can terminate a pregnancy and that every citizen has an individual right to own a firearm, but those rulings have done little to settle political arguments over abortion and guns.

The result is an uneven medley of state laws, which means

Republican-controlled states typically make it harder to procure an abortion but easier to buy weapons and carry them where you please. Live in a state where Democrats run things? You’re less likely to have a waiting period before ending a pregnancy but more likely to have one before

Governors and state lawmakers continue sharpening the disparities with new abortion statutes and a range of gun laws, several of which followed the

BOSTON (AP) — The police officer who survived a showdown with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects left the hospital Friday and headed home with a bullet still in his body, nearly two months after the gun battle that severed one of his major arteries. Officer Richard Donohue walked out of Boston’s Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital on crutches. See Page 6.

TROY — The look on a child’s face as he or she opens up a brand new box of crayons is what kept Troy High School senior Abby Brinkman pushing through the ups and downs of organizing a fundraiser to help the children of the Troy Lunch Club, located in the Garden Manor neighborhood.

Brinkman has spent countless hours soliciting more than 120 donations for a quarter auction to benefit the children of the Troy Lunch Club. The benefit will be held Thursday at St. Patrick Catholic Church in the undercroft.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and bidding starts at 6:30 p.m.

“All proceeds will go to new school supplies for them to start school next year,” said Brinkman, who organized the event and gathered all the donations from area businesses with help from friends and family.

Brinkman said she got involved with the Troy Lunch Club with her grandmother Sharyl Onder and her church last summer.

• The Troy Lunch Club Quarter Auction will be Thursday at St. Patrick Catholic Church, 409 E. Main St., Troy. The doors will open at 5:30 p.m., and bidding starts at 6:30 p.m. The cost is $2 for the first paddle and $1 for each additional paddle.

when I grow up, so I went with her to the Troy Lunch Club and fell in love with the kids,” Brinkman said.

“I love how they want to learn and make a good life for themselves.”

After helping out several times last summer, Brinkman said she fell in love with the program.

“They are really excited to see you when you come in,” she said.

The quarter auction began as a community project idea after a Hugh O’Brien leadership conference she attended last winter in Maryland.

Each student had to come up with an idea how they could impact their community with their service project.

“I immediately thought of the Troy Lunch Club kids,” she said. “I wanted to think of a way to really impact my community even though I’m in high school and I figured that I love

working with kids and already had this connection with this organization, so I just went from there.”

She put the idea into formation once she returned from the leadership conference and despite homework, an after-school job and activities, Brinkman said she kept pushing through the project to benefit the children.

“It was really hard at the start, especially asking for donations,” she said. “I wrote a letter and when I went to the business, I would give them the letter, so that helped get past the jitters.”

Brinkman said one benefit from seeking donations was seeing how generous the community of Troy is with its donations — which included hotel overnight stays and gift cards from local restaurants and stores.

“I’m really amazed with how giving everyone has

been,” Brinkman said. “So far I have 125 items and they are all really nice — I didn’t expect this at all.”

Brinkman said the quarter auction wouldn’t have been possible if not for her family and friends who helped pitch in to benefit the Troy Lunch Club.

“They really helped me get organized and stay on track,” she said.

Brinkman, with help from her sister Emily, passed out more than 300 fliers to local businesses and organizations, inviting them to the quarter auction next Thursday.

“I’m excited to see how it all goes,” she said.”

Something as simple as new school supplies for the new school year means the world to them and their families.”

Brinkman said teens can get involved in the community by simply finding a cause that is close to their heart and starting out small.

“If you put your mind to it and every bit of motivation into a project like this, you’ll be amazed at what you can do,” she said. “You have to put the work into it and get help from family and friends. It’s stressful, but just push through and finish and put everything you have into it.”

HOW TO GO

About 2,300 visitors will be cycling into Troy on Sunday when the Great Ohio Bicycle Adventure stops in Troy for a twonight stay.

This year marks the 25th anniversary for GOBA and the third time the event has stopped in Troy. GOBA Director Julie Van Winkle said that’s no accident.

“We have visited Troy two other times, in 2003 and 2007, and Troy has all the amenities we need for a successful visit — a combination of great roads throughout the county to bring us in the city of Troy, beautiful ‘accommodations’ — I say that with quotes because we’re camping in Community Park — and it is well-situated with all the attractions and restaurants in Troy. And the best thing is the great people in Troy who make it such a successful event. We were wildly happy with the stop in Troy.”

The bicycle adventure consists of traveling about 50 miles per day at a leisurely pace, with cyclists encouraged to check out local shops, restaurants, nature preserves, museums and more as part of their visit.

A booklet printed by Civitas Media will be provided at the start of the tour in Urbana.

Cyclists travel from Urbana to Troy on Sunday, June 16, followed by an optional 56-mile route in Troy on Monday. The tour then continues to Greenville on Tuesday, New Bremen on Wednesday and Thursday and Sidney on Friday, with a return to Urbana on Saturday.

Stan Kegley, city of Troy project manager, noted that the event highlights Troy’s commitment to being bicycle-friendly

and principals.

Constitutional law expert Randy Barnett, at Georgetown University Law Center, said the landscape demonstrates that politics is at play before and after the Supreme Court weighs in.

“It’s not a matter of sophisticated constitutional law,” Barnett said, but of “hotbutton wedge issues for one side of the spectrum or the other.’”

The lesson also extends to President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul and wrangling over same-sex marriage laws.

The Supreme Court ratified the main parts of the health care law, but Republicans at the state level have frustrated its implementation. On marriage, the court as early as Monday could release decisions in two cases. Most legal analysts expect declarations that allow state-bystate debates to continue, rather than an absolute ruling that mandates same-sex marriage equality everywhere.

Different practical outcomes around the country result from justices recognizing citizens’ constitutional rights to abortion and gun ownership, while also seeing room for “reasonable regulation,” Barnett said. “That gives a huge opening to political movements attempting to push the boundaries of what can be called ‘reasonable.’”

Out of 27 legislatures that Republicans control outright, at least 23 have passed measures in the past two years that NARAL ProChoice America, a leading abortion-rights group, calls “anti-choice.” Assigning each state an overall letter grade for their access laws, NARAL rated 22 of the GOP-run states as failing.

Only Montana rated an A. Among the 18 states controlled by Democrats, 11 scored an A, and the only one to rate lower than a C was Rhode Island, which received a D plus.

On firearms, Democratic statehouses haven’t gone as far with restrictive legislation as Republicans have on abortion. But the tightest limits and the newest still come almost entirely in more liberal states.

Fewer than a dozen states limit the sale of semiautomatic weapons; 17 states and Washington, D.C., require background checks or records for gun sales beyond federal requirements; and 11 states have waiting periods for certain purchases.

and will provide an economic boom for the city.

“Each of the cyclists are on vacation, and we all recognize that when people are on vacation, they tend to spend a little more money,” Kegley said. By GOBA’s estimates, riders spend about $30 per day.

Karin Manovich, executive director of Troy Main Street, said local businesses are looking to capitalize on the increased foot traffic in Troy.

“The majority of (businesses) have changed their hours and they’ve added special promotions or sidewalk sales and live entertainment to attract people to their stores and restaurants,” Manovich said. “We are providing a free merchandise shuttle, where if (cyclists) make purchases downtown, we will drive all purchases to the finish line in Urbana, where they’ll be finishing a week later on the 22nd. We’re going to provide the service so there will be no reason not to support the downtown businesses.”

TMS will be providing the shuttles, which will be either vans or personal vehicles.

In addition to patronizing restaurants and shops, cyclists are encouraged to check out historical and recreational attractions, Van Winkle said.

“One that was very popular is biplane rides at WACO airfield and the sculptures around town, which were there one of the times we were before (2003). We’re happy to see they’re back. Another that was very popular was the ice skating rink at Hobart

“In October, we’re usually in costume and we make it a little more theatrical.

This time, in the afternoon, it won’t be dark and all that, so it’ll be a little more casual, but still you’ll get the same story,” said chairperson Shawn Denoyer. “On Sunday, we’ll be going inside the courthouse, which normally we won’t be able to get into, and we’ll go into the gallows and have a

Two free concerts will be hosted as part of the festivities as well, with both cyclists and the community invited to attend. Eagles tribute band Hotel California will be hitting the stage at 7 p.m. at Treasure Island. Troy councilman Tom Kendall is sponsoring the concert with his wife Beverly.

“I think it’s a big honor for (GOBA) to even consider us, and it’s the third time we’ve had a two-day stopover, which makes it even that more exciting,” Kendall said. “From an economic standpoint, it’s great

for all of the stores and restaurants and organizations. It’s just really a great thing for the city. The other thing we find is people will come through Troy by themselves for GOBA and then will bring their families back.”

Free parking for the concert will be available at the Miami County Fairgrounds starting at 5:30 p.m., between the main driveway and the horse track at the fairgrounds. Visitors are asked not to park near any tents.

Troy Main Street will be hosting another concert at 7 p.m. Monday on Prouty Plaza, featuring the Celtic band Dulahan. Manovich said their performance last year was a big hit, earning a standing ovation. The Public Square will be closed from 6-9:30 p.m. for the event.

NATION BRIEFS

Judge bans Fort Philly inspector Hood suspect’s said collapse defense strategy ‘wasn’t my fault’ FORT HOOD, Texas (AP) — A military judge will not allow an Army psychiatrist to tell jurors that he shot Fort Hood soldiers to protect Taliban leaders in Afghanistan.

The judge said Friday that Maj. Nidal Hasan’s “defense of others” strategy fails as a matter of law.

Col. Tara Osborn said no soldiers at the Texas Army post on Nov. 5, 2009, posed an immediate threat to anyone in Afghanistan.

She said the legitimacy of the Afghanistan war is not an issue at Hasan’s trial, which hasn’t started.

Hasan is an Americanborn Muslim. He faces the death penalty or life without parole if convicted in the rampage that left 13 dead and nearly three dozen wounded.

and they trade recipes for baby food while working out with guys at the gym.

Creed Anthony, 37, a teacher and father of two in Indianapolis, recalled standing in a hallway at work “talking about breastfeeding with three women. It was natural. They didn’t bat an eye.” Another conversation with colleagues, male and female, involved “poopy diapers, puke and eating cycles,” he said. “And there are a number of guys at school who talk to each other about these things, whether it’s ‘my son’s getting up at two in the morning, he’s got this diaper rash, what did you do?’ or running a vacuum cleaner to help a colicky baby. It’s funny, but it’s perfect.”

His wife, Amal Anthony, 35, who works at a law firm, says Creed not only handles diapers and sick kids, but also does most of the shopping and laundry. But please don’t call her husband Mr. Mom. “The Mr. Mom thing gets thrown around a lot and a lot of us don’t like that,” said Anthony, who writes a blog called “Tales from the Poop Deck” and also contributes to the “Life of Dad” social networking site. “It’s normal to us to be a dad. This is what we’re supposed to do.” He said he’d like to see more focus on all the “really good dads out there … rather than being portrayed as some doofus that only sits on the couch and watches sports.”

Part of why dads are doing more around the house may be that women are doing more in the workplace. A study from the Pew Research Center this month found that mothers are the breadwinners in a record 40 percent of families. At the same time, the number of stay-at-home dads is twice what it was 10 years ago though still a relatively small number at 176,000.

And in two-thirds of married couples with children under 18, both parents work, according to the U.S. Census.

As working moms increasingly become the norm, and as their financial contributions become more critical, they’re doing less cleaning and cooking. A Pew study released in March shows that since 1965, fathers have increased the amount of time they spend on household chores from four hours to 10 hours a week. Women still do more, but as dad’s share goes up, mom’s goes down: In the same time period, mothers reduced their housework from 32 hours a week to 18.

Dads have also tripled the amount of time they spend with children since 1965, even though moms still put in about six more hours a week with kids than dads overall, according to the Pew study.

“There’s no question that guys are doing more, twice to three times as much, in fact for couples working two fulltime jobs and caring for children 6 and under than in the 1970s,” said Arlie Hochschild, whose groundbreaking book “The Second Shift,” documented how an earlier generation of women did the lion’s share of child care and housework even if they had jobs outside the home.

Jay Fagan, a sociology professor at Temple University in Philadelphia and founding editor of the academic journal Fathering, says the inverse relationship between hours worked outside and inside the home makes sense: “When the mother is working full-time, it is impossible for her to do everything.” But there’s another aspect too, he notes: “The more you earn, the more it buys you out of some of the mundane responsibilities.”

We Pay the Highest Prices for Gold,

Diamonds and Estates!

For their part, the new dads say they want things divided equally. Fatherhood, says Jeremy Foster, 37, of Kansas City, Mo., has gone from a “provide, protect scenario, to a team effort, especially nowadays with couples raising children where both work full-time.”

At one point, when his 1year-old Sophia wasn’t sleeping well, Foster even moved into the nursery so that his wife, a social worker, could get enough sleep. “I’d rock Sophia and get her back to sleep so my wife wasn’t doing all the work,” said Foster, a creative director and designer for an online platform called CD2 Learning.

Foster and his wife also have his-and-her diaper bags hers with a floral pattern, his a gray-and-orange messenger bag from DiaperDude.com.The company was founded 10 years ago

by Chris Pegula of Santa Monica, Calif., a father of three who was put off by his wife’s taste in diaper bags.

“They were so feminine, there was no way in hell I was going to carry one of them,” said Pegula, now 41.

“They had colorful stripes and flowers and leopard prints. They were basically purses. I went to look for a bag for myself but there wasn’t anything on the market in a dad category.” Diaper Dude now sells dozens of styles designed to appeal to men, from camouflage prints to bags with baseball team logos.

Other signs that handson dads are now mainstream range from changing tables in men’s restrooms to unisex baby showers to paternity leave in the workplace. Or, as a new survey from Men’s magazine and Health BabyCenter.com summed it up, “Dad is the New Mom.” But the outside world has not completely accepted the notion of dads as equal partners. Randi Wall, 25, of Northfield, N.J., says she still gets “a lot of negative comments” from “elders” about her fiance, Douglas White, Jr., 24, who works as a mechanic and also helps around the house and with their two kids.

Wall, who works from home in advertising and marketing, tunes the naysayers out, saying, “I’m extremely proud of the man and the father that he is.

Sharing our responsibilities makes our relationship, and our family, function much more smoothly.” White, for his part, says his “choice to help out and take part in our children’s lives does not diminish Randi’s ability to be a wonderful mother and significant other.”

Fagan, the Temple professor, says “there’s no question that young fathers are far more involved,” not just in how much time they spend with kids, but also in “their sense of who they are as individuals their personal identities.”

But he noted that the trend of sharing child care and housework is “largely happening among collegeeducated couples.” Families where parents lack college degrees and are struggling with unemployment are “more likely to be raising their children as single parents,” he said. “It’s a real concern.”

Even in two-parent families, how much dads do around the house depends on “how much the mother is working and how much she is earning,” Fagan added. An ongoing study of how Americans use their time shows that the more mothers earn, the more fathers do at home.

“Father’s involvement goes down if she’s not working full-time and if her earnings are much less than his,” he said.

NEW YORK (AP) Laura Radocaj of Vero Beach, Fla., was warned when she was pregnant with twins that motherhood would be harder than she imagined especially because she planned to go back to work while the twins were still babies. “But this has been the easiest transition,” said Radocaj, 28, who works from home in corporate communications.

So what’s her secret?

Her husband, Marco, also 28, puts in just as much time with child care and housework as she does, even though he works full-time for an air-conditioning company. “If your partner is splitting things 50-50, it’s easy,” said Laura. “Before, when everyone made motherhood seem like such a big deal, men weren’t chipping in as much.”

Something is changing with today’s young fathers.

By their own accounts, by their wives’ testimony, and according to time-use studies and other statistics, more men are doing more around the house, from packing school lunches and doing laundry to getting up in the middle of the night with a screaming infant.

“If it’s not my job, then it’s her job, and that wouldn’t be fair,” said Marco.

But it’s not just about sharing chores. For dads in their 20s and 30s, being an involved father is part of their identity. They blog AP about changing diapers, they This April 2013 photo provided by Jeremy Foster of Kansas City, Mo., shows Foster, chat nonchalantly with colleagues about breastfeeding, 37, with his daughter Sophia, who turned 1 on June 12, at the Kansas City Zoo.

EDITORIAL ROUNDUP The Dallas Morning News on Oklahoma storm chasers’ deaths a sobering reminder: The very term — storm chaser — suggests thrill and adventure. It conjures images of swashbuckling weather junkies who tempt fate in pursuit of dramatic video or close encounters with killer cyclones.

Our video-obsessed culture can’t get enough of their harrowing tales.

Now add the grimmest of chapters — the obituaries of three tornado chasers among the 13 dead from Friday’s second round of lethal storms in the Oklahoma City area.

There is a lesson to be learned in how they died. It’s about the respect everyone in Tornado Alley — and that includes us, in the Dallas area — should have for our volatile springtime weather.

The chase team was headed by a veteran engineer and inventor whose former show, Storm Chasers, aired on the Discovery Channel and who had several science grants from the National Geographic Society.

Known for attention to safety, Tim Samaras was in the field for the science, not the rush of excitement, say those who knew him. His goal was collecting data to help understand twisters better and save lives in the long run.

Alaska’s Bristol Bay: Plans for a massive copper and gold mine at the headwaters of Bristol Bay represent a long-term hazard to the health of an extraordinary source of wild salmon.

Bristol Bay is a part of a lucrative Alaskan salmon industry that employs thousands, and is a rich part of the state’s economic and social heritage.

Seasonal estimates for the state push the 2013 projected catch to 179 million salmon. Last year Bristol Bay was the third-most-productive region with 22 million salmon caught, and most were pricey sockeye salmon.

The federal Environmental Protection Agency has looked askance at the mining plans, but made no decision. The epic scale of the proposal and its impact on vast expanses of rivers, streams and wetlands stir deep concerns.

For all of the potential of modern mitigation techniques, questions are raised about the practical burden of keeping mine tailings and fouled waters out of pristine waters for, well, ever.

Bristol Bay’s salmon fishery fuels trade with China and Japan, and the processing and commercial fishing pieces are present in Washington’s economy.

Sport fishing is also part of Alaska’s economic mix and tourist draw.

Bristol Bay nurtures a healthy economic environment that produces American jobs. Bristol Bay thrives because of a sustainable natural environment for wild salmon.

Protect a valuable resource from an avoidable and artificial hazard.

Here’s where we can make cuts To the Editor: As a recipient of Social Security and Medicare I am naturally interested in any cuts that will take place in these services. Note that I do not call them entitlements. Up until six months ago, I paid Social Security taxes and Medicare taxes, in addition to paying the government $200 a month for our Medicare and AARP $400 a month for what Medicare doesn't cover. Any more “entitlements” like this and we will have to cut our food budget. Everyone tells me to get cheaper insurance. Try that when you are 89 and your wife is 84.

Not that there could not be some cuts in these services.

Especially in Medicare. Doctors order too many tests. Too many fancy toys, like electric scooters, are handed out. Too much fraud.

All the wise people in Washington stroke their chins, nod their heads and agree that “something” will have to be done about Social Security and Medicare. Yet ask these same people about cuts in defense spending and they quit nodding their heads and start expounding on reasons why we cannot touch our defense spending.

Baloney! I have a prime place for cuts. At the height of World War II, we had 1.5 general officers for every 10 million uniform personnel. In

2010, we had 6.9 general officers for every 10 million. Wait!

We haven't included the Navy.

In 2010, the Navy had just slightly more than 300 vessels in the total fleet. In that same year, it had 240 admirals. Do we really need an admiral for ever 1.25 vessels?

I wrote this letter some time ago, but decided, for reasons of my own, not to send to you. However, after watching all those admirals and generals flounder around giving reasons why they have not done more to prevent sexual abuse in the military, I concluded I was right the first time. We really don't need all of these, excuse the expression, Bozos!

Motherhood breaks something in you; mostly your sanity I was a much better parent before I had children.

I was going to be the most patient mother. I would love waking up every three hours to nurse my children, I would appreciate every minute of the day I spent rocking them in my arms, I would breathe in their sweet newborn scent multiple times a day and I would be the kind of parent who really did absorb every little smile, wink, giggle or accomplishment for the miracle they were because the years, they fly by.

And then, I became a parent.

Like, not in the annoying “housing a baby in my womb,” knowsit-all parent. I’m talking the pushed-said-baby-out-of-my-body and dealt with an entire month of nursing-on-demand-every-single-hour type of mom.

I’m patient, for the first four hours of the day. And then after explaining to my daughter for the 15th time in the same hour why she can’t just be a “nakey” baby outside of the house I rattle off the standard “because I said so” response and plead to whatever God is up there that she can be entertained by one episode of “Yo Gabba Gabba” so mommy can yo grabba grabba her sanity back.

And nursing, well, there’s just so much material there that I could write columns for the next three years on it. Don’t worry, I won’t, I’ll just summarize it simply by saying: for something that is supposed to be so natural and perfect, it sure makes me feel like a little piece of my soul is dying every time my child and I fail to grasp it so “naturally.”

For the most part, I’ve been lucky to have two pretty good sleepers when it comes to children. Since 5 months of age Pearyn has slept through the night, for 12 hours. And when she was teething, she slept more.

And Braeburn, akin to his sister, has started sleeping through the night at 5 months old. It’s only about 10 hours and starts around 8 p.m., but that leaves me a good two to three glorious hours to do nothing baby or tod-

dler related.

And don’t you get me started on the whole crying-it-out method. I’ve tried it. Even after swearing I’d never “subject” my children to it while drunk on all those new pregnancy hormones, I’ve tried that game with my children and they’ll have none of it.

Both of my children will cry it out so much that they cry out a little of their meal or bottle every time. And when you just finished nursing them for 40 minutes, that liquid they’re crying out is like sweet, sweet gold.

And you cry with them. Over spilled milk, thrown up milk, leaking milk, you cry about crying. And them crying. And then you cry more.

Thankfully Pearyn is long out of that stage. She’s at the time now where she can feed herself and has developed her own unique taste pallet. Her favorite thing in the entire universe?

Applesauce. Girl can seriously throw down some smashed up apples. And since she does enjoy feeding herself so much, but still has the dexterity of a 3 year old, my carpet, her clothes and the dog all end up loving themselves some applesauce, too.

Finally, last week at the store

I broke down and bought like 19 boxes of those squeeze-pouch applesauce things. You know the ones I’m talking about, right?

They’re like $1 more expensive and have a third less applesauce than the cups or jar-variety you can buy. But you know what they do? They keep the applesauce in my daughter’s mouth and nowhere else. I swore I would never waste money like that, on such a “convenient” item, but if it spares me one more occasion of sopping up applesauce off my floors, I’ll take it.

And truth be told, I really have tried to enjoy all the little moments I get to be a part of everyday. The beauty of my work-from-home job is that I have and do get to be here for all of their first moments, from Brae’s first giggles to the very first time Pearyn drew a “P.” Being a mother is the most rewarding experience I could ever imagine — and thanks to my imagination, I’m going to keep thinking I’m the best mother I can be, because reality is a little less perfect.

Officer shot in marathon showdown heads home BOSTON (AP) — The police officer who survived a showdown with the Boston Marathon bombing suspects left the hospital Friday and headed home with a bullet still in his body, nearly two months after the gun battle that severed one of his major arteries.

Officer Richard Donohue walked out of Boston’s Spaulding Rehabilitation Hospital on crutches, emerging with his wife to the applause of more than a dozen fellow Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority officers.

The 33-year-old MBTA officer spent about a month recovering at Spaulding.

He’s been coping with nerve damage that can make it painful to walk, and will continue to do outpatient rehab.

Donohue can take a few steps on his own now and

can use a cane to walk. He said he feels his body is improving and that he drew inspiration by exercising at Spaulding alongside those who survived the April 15 bombings near the race’s finish line.

“We’re all on the same track. We all want to get better,” he said. “We’re all working hard to do so.”

The officer said he’s looking forward to being home so he can spend more time with his infant son, see his family’s beagle, sleep in a bigger bed and have “a little more independence and a few less distractions.”

But Donohue said he still has a long way to go before he makes a full recovery. While he wants to get back to work, he doesn’t have a timetable for that yet.

His wife, Kim Donohue, said it will be a proud and tough day for her when he

goes back to his job. She described the last two months as a “whirlwind” time when the family got offers of help from all over the world.

The officer said he has no memory of the April encounter on the streets of Watertown, Mass., between police and marathon bombing suspects Tamerlan and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev.

Authorities have said the suspects and officers exchanged gunfire and that the brothers also lobbed explosives at police in their attempt to escape.

Donohue also said he hasn’t heard anything new on the investigation into who may have fired the bullet that pierced his groin and almost killed him. He has said in the past that it didn’t matter to him if the bullet turned out to be from an officer’s gun, saying officers did their jobs in the chaotic

encounter that also resulted in 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev’s death.

A spokeswoman for the Middlesex district attorney said the investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

Dzhokhar Tsarnaev, 19, is awaiting trial on federal charges that include use of a weapon of mass destruction to kill, an offense for which authorities could seek the death penalty.

MBTA Police Chief Paul MacMillan walked out of the hospital with the Donohues on Friday morning, before a convoy of police vehicles pulled away from the hospital to escort the couple home.

Microsoft brings Office to iPhone, not tablets offering Office on the iPhone only with a subscription.

The iPhone app will let people read and edit their text documents, spreadsheets and slide presentations at the doctor’s office or at a soccer game. But many people will prefer doing those tasks on a tablet’s larger screen.

Office is available on those devices through a Web browser, but that requires a constant Internet connection, something many tablets don’t have.

“The nature of the Office suite, being productivityfocused, makes it bettersuited for a larger mobile screen,” said Josh Olson, an analyst with Edward Jones. “The issue then becomes, ‘How do you provide the Office offering in its best-suited mobile environment without negating a distinguishing characteristic of the Windows 8 tablets?’”

He said Microsoft isn’t likely to offer Office on the iPad and other tablets until it sees sufficient adoption of Windows tablets first. Because of that, the new mobile app is likely to increase consumer awareness, but it won’t significantly increase subscriptions.

Another analyst, Rick Sherlund of Nomura Securities, warned that delaying a tablet version on non-Windows devices

will merely help competitors.

“Office is a bigger business for Microsoft than Windows, so we see more urgency to preserve and extend the Office franchise cross platform,” he said.

Apple, for one, is refreshing its iWork package this fall, while Google bought Quickoffice last year. The two offerings are among several that are capable of working with Office files on mobile devices, though people using them may lose formatting and other details.

Chris Schneider, a marketing manager with Microsoft’s Office team, would not comment on any plans for the iPad or Android.

The regular version of Office works on Windows 8 tablets, and most of the features are available on a version designed for tablets running a lightweight version of Windows called RT. Customers needing to use Office on a larger screen than a phone might be drawn to the Windows tablets, which have lagged behind in sales and cachet compared with Apple’s iPad and various devices running Google’s Android system.

The iPhone app comes with Word, Excel and PowerPoint and will sync with Microsoft’s SkyDrive online storage service.

Microsoft said people will be able to pick up a Word document exactly where they left off on another computer tied to the same account, while comments they add to a Word or Excel file will appear when they open it up on another machine.

Although documents will be reformatted to fit the phone’s screen, the company said the iPhone app will preserve charts, animation, comments and other key properties.

That’s not always the case with programs offered by Google and other companies to work with Office files on mobile devices.

But the app doesn’t offer the same range of features available on regular computers.

It’s meant for lightweight editing, not complex calculations or heavy graphical work, Schneider said. Someone about to give a speech can review a PowerPoint presentation and fix a typo, for instance.

Someone getting a Word or Excel document as an email attachment can add comments or make changes, then send it back, either as an email attachment or through a sharing feature on SkyDrive.

Rather than have it do everything, Schneider said, “we designed the Office Mobile for iPhone to meet the scenarios that make the most sense.”

NEW YORK (AP) — Even as a pared-down version of Microsoft’s Office software package arrived on the iPhone, the company is holding out on extending that to the iPad and Android devices as it tries to boost sales of tablet computers running its own Windows system.

Microsoft also isn’t selling Office Mobile for iPhone separately. Instead, it comes as part of a $100a-year Office 365 subscription, which also lets you use Office on up to five Mac and Windows computers.

Microsoft made the app available through Apple’s app store Friday.

Microsoft Corp. is treading a fine line as it tries to make its subscription more compelling, without removing an advantage that tablet computers running Microsoft’s Windows system now have the ability to run popular Office programs such as Word, Excel and PowerPoint.

Microsoft has been pushing subscriptions as a way to get customers to keep paying for a product that has historically been sold in a single purchase.

The company touts such benefits as the ability to run the package on multiple computers and get updates for free on a regular basis. Microsoft said it wants to give customers yet another reason to embrace subscriptions by

NC protests split on Bible’s message RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) — Over the last two months, hundreds of protesters have walked out of North Carolina’s capitol in handcuffs to show their opposition to policies by the GOPcontrolled Legislature.

While a broader coalition of supporters is building around the “Moral Mondays” started by the state chapter of the NAACP, the inspiration behind the protests is a throwback to the biblical message of civil rights leaders fighting segregation in the Jim Crow era.

They argue that cutting benefit programs and cutting tax breaks for low- and middle-income families violates Jesus Christ’s teaching to care for those with the least. It’s running into another school of Christian thought followed by many Southern conservatives: The best way to help the poor is through private charity, providing jobs and promoting self-reliance, rather than government programs.

The NAACP, and other groups that are joining them in larger numbers, oppose a range of Republican policies, from refusing to expand Medicaid to about 500,000 more people to restricting eligibility for the state’s pre-kindergarten program.

Republicans, who control both chambers of the Legislature for the first time in more than a century, have also cut unemployment benefits and abolished the earned-income tax credit, which serves low to middle-income people.

State bishops and church leaders from five major Christian denominations issued a statement supporting the NAACP’s actions ahead of a clergy-led protest on Monday.

Robert Daniels, senior pastor at St. John’s Missionary Baptist Church in Durham, said Monday that he chose to get arrested to let legislators know that disproportionately hurting the poor wouldn’t go unno-

ticed by voters or God. “I want them to know that justice will win,” he said. “God will show his hand that he’s for the poor.

It’s only a matter of time.”

Matthew Wilson, a professor at Southern Methodist University who writes about the intersection of religion and politics, said differences in responses to poverty historically come down to denomination. Roman Catholics and black Protestants don’t oppose public solutions, but Protestants of evangelical or Baptist leanings often do.

And those denominations heavily clustered in the South emphasize personal responsibility, an individual relationship with God and work ethic, he said.

“A lot of studies show that evangelicals give more money to private antipoverty groups than any others, so they do take very seriously the biblical imperatives to help the poor, but they differ in that they see the biblical imperative to help the poor as being an individual imperative as opposed to a collective social imperative,” Wilson said.

Russell Moore, president of the Southern Baptist Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission, said he sees Christians as similarly concerned with prosperity for all, but divided over how to bring it about.

“Obviously there will always be those who have no concern for the poor at all, and that’s clearly forbidden by Scripture, but usually the differences we have are over unintended consequences,” he said. “And so Democrats and Republicans will disagree on what policy objectives will actually help the poor and what will put into place patterns that will, in the long-term, harm poor people.

The protests are dominating local news coverage and attracting national attention, but that doesn’t mean they’ll be immediately effective. Republicans maintain that they’re

doing exactly what the public wanted in electing them to veto-proof majorities and the protesters don’t represent a clear majority. But the NAACP plans to continue its weekly protests indefinitely.

While some Republicans hesitate to apply biblical lessons to fiscal programs, that hasn’t stopped a raft of legislation on private social behavior. In recent years, North Carolina lawmakers have pushed through a constitutional amendment for voters to ban gay marriage and new restrictions on abortion.

Rep. Ruth Samuelson, R-Mecklenburg and a longpracticing Christian, said social legislation as well as economic policy are inevitably driven by worldviews, and among people of faith those perspectives are influenced by their religious beliefs. She said she and her family act charitably in private, but she thinks the best economic policies rein in spending and create a better climate for businesses.

“If we’re spending money on this thing, we’re taking it from somewhere else, but we can’t do it at the cost of the ability of the person paying for the taxes to still have enough to provide for their own families and to create that environment for jobs,” she said.

To other Christians, the Bible calls for reforms that more directly address systems of inequality.

Miguel De La Torre, a professor of social ethics at Iliff School of Theology and an ordained Southern Baptist minister, said he sees the NAACP’s efforts akin to the Occupy movement but with more of a moral current.

The one-time Republican candidate for the Florida House of Representatives said the more evangelical strain of Protestantism is tied to the American ideal of individualism, which he believes misses a clear biblical call to address economic strife.

Pope confirms ‘gay lobby’ at work at Vatican VATICAN CITY (AP) In private remarks to the leadership of a key Latin American church group, Pope Francis lamented that a “gay lobby” was at work at the Vatican.

It was an apparent reference to allegations in the Italian media that blackmail was taking place within the Vatican against high-ranking prelates who are gay.

The Latin American and Caribbean

Confederation of Religious the regional organization for priests and nuns of religious orders confirmed Tuesday that its leaders had written a synthesis of Francis’ remarks after their June 6 audience.

The group, known by its Spanish acronym CLAR, said it was greatly distressed that the document had been published and apologized to the pope.

In the document, Francis is quoted as say-

ing that while there were many holy people in the Vatican, there was also a current of corruption.

“The ‘gay lobby’ is mentioned, and it is true, it is there … We need to see what we can do …” the synthesis reads.

The Vatican spokesman, the Rev. Federico Lombardi, said Tuesday the audience was private and that as a result he had nothing to say.

ANNIE’S MAILBOX

Ignore the sarcasm and get back on your feet Dear Annie: I recently had to move back into my parents' house due to financial hardship.

I'm 23 years old and have rarely asked them for any sort of help.

But I receive a lot of grief, sarcasm and jokes about my current position, and this is from my entire family.

Meanwhile, I have two older brothers who rely and depend on my parents for everything.

One lives at home, and the other is struggling with a drug problem and divorce. Yet in my parents' eyes, they are complete angels, and I am the "troubled child" because I asked for help when I absolutely needed it.

I don't want to feel like a dog with his tail between his legs anymore.

What can I do? — The Boy Who Cried Help Dear Boy: It's likely that you are being picked on because it makes those on the lowest part of the totem pole feel superior.

It's the only way your brothers have of feeling better about themselves, and your parents back them up because they fully expect you to move out, and they still have to deal with their other sons.

We know it's not fair or justified, but this is what happens when people think they must drag you down to their level.

Ignore your brothers, and ask your parents to stop treating you so poorly.

Do your best to get back on your feet, and find other living arrangements as soon as possible. We'll be rooting for you.

Dear Annie: I recently attended a volunteer appreciation lunch for my local Meals on Wheels.

This is a great organization, and once a year they invite the volunteers to lunch. We buy raffle tickets, and there are generous door prizes given.

This year, several members of our city council were invited. I was shocked when several of them won raffle prizes. One council member had his name called three times.

I realize anyone can buy a raffle ticket, but this luncheon was for those of us who donate our time and money to deliver meals to those in need. I think they should have returned their prizes to be awarded to a volunteer.

Most of my co-volunteers agree with me. What do you think? — Shocked Volunteer Dear Volunteer: We agree that giving the prizes to people other than volunteers was tacky, but we assume the organization was trying to raise money through the sale of raffle tickets, in which case, whoever bought them can win, and what they choose to do with those prizes is up to them.

Yes, it would have been gracious to donate the gifts back to the organization (or to the volunteers), but they are not obligated to do so. The problem is, this sort of thing leaves a sour taste for the others and can have a negative impact on future volunteer work. Please talk to the organizers of the event and let them know how poorly this went over.

Dear Annie: I read the letter from "RLS," who doesn't like to ask for separate checks when out with friends at a restaurant.

When we go out with really good friends, we get one bill and divide the cost by the number of people. If one person buys a much more expensive meal or drink, that person pays a little more.

However, sometimes one person will order an expensive bottle of wine and still want to split the tab evenly. I think this is rude. I get the impression that these people purposely order more expensive items so they don't have to pay the entire cost.

RLS should not be so quick to judge friends because they want separate checks. I know that I do not like to pay for other people's extravagances, nor do I expect others to pay for mine. — Paid My Fair Share Annie's Mailbox is written by Kathy Mitchell and Marcy Sugar, longtime editors of the Ann Landers column.

SUDOKU PUZZLE

HOW TO PLAY: Complete the grid so that every row, column and 3x3 box contains every digit from 1 to 9 inclusively. Find answers to today’s puzzle in tomorrow’s Troy Daily News.

YESTERDAY’S SOLUTION:

HINTS FROM HELOISE

Remember to protect your home while you roam Dear Readers: Summer is almost here, and it’s vacation time! There are a lot of things to consider before leaving on vacation. Here are some hints to help protect your home and valuables while away: • Do not post upcoming vacation information on social-media sites! Daily photos of you on vacation also can let thieves know that your home is sitting empty. Post them when you are home.

• Set one or two lights on a timer inside the house while you are gone.

• Stop newspaper and mail delivery (if it’s going to be more than a few days), or ask a neighbor to collect them.

Hints from Heloise Columnist • Park a car in the driveway.

It makes it look like someone is home. Be sure the car is locked, with no valuables in it. If you are going for a while, consider having a neighbor or family member move the car from one side of the driveway to the other occasionally, or park their car there.

• Make sure all doors, windows and pet doors are locked!

Also, disconnect the automatic garage-door opener.

• Tell a trusted neighbor or relative that you will be gone, and leave emergency contact information with him or her. A neighbor that can keep an eye on your home will be the first to notice suspicious activity while you are gone and call police. — Heloise FLUFFY PILLOWS Dear Heloise: I read your column in the Ventura County (Calif.) Star regarding the difficulty putting pillowcases on pillows that are a lot thicker these days.

I always turn the pillowcases

inside out, put my arms inside to the far corners and then grab the pillow and pull the case over the pillow. It is much easier that way. — Betty, via email SICK CAT Dear Heloise: A reader wrote that her cat barfs a lot.

Mine did, too, usually immediately after eating, but I think I have found the solution. I spread her daily ration of food into many small servings throughout the day. After feeding her, I close her in the room for about 15 minutes (to protect my gold carpet in case she gets sick). After following this plan for about three months, I find her upchucks to be rare. — Anne, via email

HOROSCOPE

BY FRANCES DRAKE For Sunday, June 16, 2013 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) You feel benevolent toward co-workers today. In fact, you will be willing to help anyone if you have a chance.

However, you might overdo it on desserts. (Naughty, naughty.)

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20) This is a wonderful day to socialize and schmooze with others. Enjoy sports events, picnics, barbecues, little vacations and playful times with children. Romance will be upbeat. Oh yeah.

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Entertain at home today. Invite the gang over. All family discussions will be mutually generous and beneficial, because the vibes are very feel-good today.

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) You feel optimistic and friendly to others. This is a great day for those of you who write, market and sell. However, it's a poor day to sign contracts. Be careful.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Be careful that you don't go overboard with money matters today, even though you feel generous to everyone.

(You are always generous.) Save your money for yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Today the Moon is in your sign, which makes you luckier than usual. This is why things might go your way easily.

(Fingers crossed.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) Political, philosophical and religious topics will intrigue you today. Enjoy exploring ideas and pushing the sides of the envelope, because you want to learn something new. (When you quit learning, you start dying.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Group situations, especially with females, will be friendly and upbeat.

Enjoy meetings with others. Someone might encourage you to expand your goals. (Why not?)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Relations with people in authority will go well today because they view you as generous and cooperative. This is excellent, because you see them in a positive light as well.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Travel opportunities are thrilling now.

Jump at anything that comes your way, because you're keen to expand your horizons. Keep an eye open for opportunities in publishing and medicine as well.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18) Be careful you don't give away the farm today if you have to make decisions about sharing something. Protect your own self-interests. (Ya think?)

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) This is a great day to discuss important things with partners and close friends, because people are willing to be cooperative. You feel friendly and open, and so do they.

YOU BORN TODAY You are intelligent and observant. You think beyond today to all your tomorrows, which is why you often save something or build an inventory that you value. You believe in being prepared. You also are patient in how you plan for your success. Your year ahead is the beginning of a fresh new cycle. Open any door!

TODAY IN HISTORY (AP) — Today is Saturday, June 15, the 166th day of 2013. There are 199 days left in the year.

Today’s Highlight in History: On June 15, 1775, the Second Continental Congress voted unanimously to appoint George Washington head of the Continental Army.

On this date: • In 1215, England’s King John put his seal to Magna Carta (“the Great Charter”) at Runnymede.

• In 1864, Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton signed an order establishing a military burial ground, which became Arlington National

Cemetery.

• In 1938, Johnny Vander Meer pitched his second consecutive nohitter, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a 6-0 victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers in the first night game at Ebbets Field, four days after leaving the Boston Bees hitless by a score of 3-0.

• In 1962, Students for a Democratic Society, at the conclusion of a five-day convention in Michigan, issued the Port Huron Statement.

• In 1993, former Texas Gov. John Connally, who was wounded in the gunfire that killed President John F. Kennedy, died in Houston at age 76.

• Ten years ago: With a deadline

passed for Iraqis to hand in heavy weapons, U.S. forces fanned out across Iraq to seize arms and put down potential foes. The San Antonio Spurs won the NBA championship, defeating the New Jersey Nets 88-77 in Game 6. Golfer Jim Furyk won the U.S. Open. Actor Hume Cronyn died in Fairfield, Conn., at age 91.

• Today’s Birthdays: Former New York Governor Mario Cuomo is 81. Comedian-actor Jim Belushi is 59.

Actress Julie Hagerty is 58. Actress Helen Hunt is 50. Actress Courteney Cox is 49. Actor-rapper Ice Cube is 44. Actress Leah Remini is 43. Actor Neil Patrick Harris is 40.

mated at 105 miles per hour. Nine people were injured with no deaths reported.

A second EF-1 tornado initially touched down near the Cherokee-Cobb county line and moved through Cobb County with crews tracking damage into Fulton County. Peak winds were estimated at 110 miles per hour with no injuries or deaths reported.

By Friday afternoon, about 44,000 Georgia Power customers were still without power, with most in metro Atlanta. Crews from south Georgia and Alabama were in the area to help, the utility said.

Kennesaw State University, northwest of Atlanta, said it was canceling all classes Friday due to power outages. Georgia Perimeter College also canceled Friday classes at its Dunwoody campus, and Oglethorpe University in DeKalb County was closed because of storm damage near campus.

In Sandy Springs, just north of Atlanta, roads were blocked by fallen limbs and debris. The Sandy Springs Municipal Court was closed Friday because of a power outage, and City Hall delayed opening until 10 a.m.

“A huge tree did fall and it’s blocking the road; it’s a

big tree,” said Gene Cambardella, who lives in a Sandy Springs neighborhood where large oak and pine trees are commonplace.

He reported the massive tree came down across a dead-end street in a neighborhood of two-story suburban homes, blocking any exit for several neighbors.

“We can’t get out,” he said. “It fell across the street into another front yard and it took down the power lines. I looked at the trunk and it must be 3 feet in diameter. I’m glad it fell opposite the neighbor’s home and away from the house.”

In that Sandy Springs neighborhood, one of Cambardella’s neighbors immediately put up emergency tape marking a downed power line sprawled across a front yard.

Large limbs were down all around the neighborhood.

In the Cherokee County town of Canton, just northwest of Atlanta, National Weather Service forecasters say falling trees left two people with non-life threatening injuries.

Authorities say they suspect that many of the fallen trees in metro Atlanta were toppled by powerful straight-line winds.

Authorities probe collapse at Fla. bar

AP PHOTO

Officials begin their inspection of the outdoor deck that collapsed at Shuckers Bar and Restaurant on Friday. The packed outdoor deck behind the popular Miami-area sports bar partially collapsed during the NBA Finals on Thursday night, sending dozens of patrons into the shallow waters of Biscayne Bay. Many had cuts and bruises, though one person suffered a fracture. By midday Friday, only one person remained hospitalized with unknown injuries.

Structural engineer Morgan Villanueva, whose

firm contracts with various cities for engineering services, said when he arrived to inspect the debris that it appeared a main support at one end gave way for unknown reasons.

It wasn’t immediately clear

Friday how old the deck was and when it was last inspected or renovated.

Shuckers bills itself as a “locals favorite for over 20 years.”

Heat coach Erik Spoelstra told reporters in

Friday about any inspections.

“Our building department is actively reviewing the incident, to include review and inspection of the structural damage,” the city said in a statement.

Marino said Shuckers passed a fire safety inspection in January. She said it’s largely up to restaurant and bar operators to enforce capacity limits.

“We can’t be policing every restaurant,” Marino said.

North Bay Village is a small series of islands in Biscayne Bay with a strip of restaurants, hotels, houses and condos that is attached by causeways to the mainland and also to Miami Beach.

North Bay Village Mayor Connie Leon Kreps went to the scene afterward and said she was grateful that no one had died.

“This is a real tragedy,” she said. “Shuckers has been here for many, many years. People come from all around to enjoy the view and the food. This is really unfortunate.”

San Antonio where his team is preparing for Game 5 of the NBA Finals against the Spurs that he had been there many times.

“It’s a great venue. I’m still trying to wrap my mind around it and how it happened. But all of our thoughts are with those people, and we hope everybody’s OK,” Spoelstra said.

“That’s really scary and I hope it doesn’t change people’s thoughts on going to those type of venues because they can be fun as long as they’re safe.”

Villanueva said fans cheering the game could have had an impact on the deck’s structural integrity, particularly if it was already weakened.

“If people were excited and jumping, it’s going to be an additional load,” he said.

Miami-Dade Fire Rescue spokesman Griselle Marino said the main restaurant has a safe capacity of 74 people, but rules for the deck would be enforced separately by North Bay Village officials.

They said they were still gathering information

NORTH BAY VILLAGE, Fla. (AP) — Investigators began examining a twisted pile of concrete, metal and wood on Friday to determine why a waterfront deck at a popular sports bar collapsed into shallow Biscayne Bay, injuring two dozen people gathered to cheer the Miami Heat in the NBA Finals.

Authorities estimated about 100 people were on the deck at Shuckers Bar & Grill when a support on one end apparently gave way, causing the deck to buckle in the middle and drop about 8 feet into the bay. The scene Friday was a tangle of partly submerged green plastic chairs, tables, umbrellas, and even flipflops and cell phones lost in the chaos of the night before.

“It was a shock,” said Martin Torres, 42, who was in South Florida from Los Angeles to board a cruise.

“People were yelling.

Nobody knew. People came out all wet. They were crying. For a while, nobody knows what’s going on.”

Miami-Dade Fire Chief David Downey said 24 people were taken to hospitals.

With series tied, Game 5 could top all SAN ANTONIO (AP) — At their best in the NBA Finals, the Miami Heat have forced turnover after turnover, finding a gear the San Antonio Spurs just can’t reach.

Play in Game 5 as they have during their two easy victories in the series, and LeBron James’ defending champs will head home just one win away from another title.

But Miami’s best hasn’t been carrying over from game to game, not just in this series but for a while now. So it’s anybody’s guess what happens Sunday in a

finals that’s dead even, though the games haven’t been.

“I think Game 5 should be the best game of the series,” Dwyane Wade said. “Both teams should come out knowing each other, knowing what each other want to do, and it should be a very good game.”

Not the way this series has been going.

Game 1 was a thriller, neither team able to build a double-digit AP PHOTO lead over four back-and-fourth Miami Heat’s Dwyane Wade dunks against the San Antonio Spurs quarters before Tony Parker’s during the second half of Game 4 of the NBA Finals Thursday in ■ See GAME 5 on 15 San Antonio.

Working overtime Bruce HR in 10th gives Reds 4-3 victory CINCINNATI (AP) — Jay Bruce homered off Burke Badenhop with one out in the 10th inning on Friday night, rallying the Cincinnati Reds to a 43 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers in a game full of errors and wasted chances.

It was Cincinnati’s second straight extra-inning game. The Reds fell 6-5 in 14 innings at Wrigley Field on Thursday, leaving their bullpen depleted.

Bruce connected on a 1-2 pitch from Badenhop (0-3) for

his fifth game-ending homer, leaving the Reds 4-7 in extra innings this season.

Alfredo Simon (5-2) retired the side in the 10th.

The teams combined for five errors including a season-high three by Cincinnati. Bronson Arroyo hit Martin Maldonado with the bases loaded to force in a run, and Maldonado homered off him to tie it 3-all in the eighth.

The Brewers put outfielder Ryan Braun on the 15-day dis-

abled list after the game with a sore right thumb.

The Reds have won 11 of their last 13 against the Brewers at Great American Ball Park, a hitters’ haven that hasn’t suited Milwaukee. The Brewers stranded eight runners in scoring position on Friday, leaving the bases loaded twice.

The Brewers have gone 7-6 in June following a 6-22 May that left them at the bottom of the NL Central along with the Cubs.

ARDMORE, Pa. (AP) — Phil Mickelson made his first birdie on his last putt. Billy Horschel never missed a green. It was all they could do to barely break par against Merion, which is turning out to be the real star of this U.S. Open.

Nearly half the field did not finish the second round when it was suspended by darkness.

Moments after the horn sounded to stop play, Mickelson opted to finish his round and drilled a 20foot birdie putt for a 2-over 72.

That gave him a share of the clubhouse lead with Horschel, who made it as easy as possible by hitting every green in regulation for a 67.

They were at 1-under 139.

Even with the round not finished, it was becoming clear that this U.S. Open might be up for grabs until the very end. Tiger Woods, who grimaced with every shot out of the rough because of pain in his left elbow, was at 3over 143 and still very much in the game.

CHICAGO (AP) — Milan Lucic remembers it as if it was yesterday.

Boston got Nathan Horton in a trade with Florida three years ago, and Bruins coach Claude Julien decided to put the forward on a line with David Krejci and Lucic.

“It kind of just clicked right away,” Lucic said.

Yeah, no kidding.

The high-scoring line combined for Boston’s first two goals in a 4-3 triple-overtime loss to the Chicago Blackhawks in Game 1 of the Stanley Cup finals Wednesday night. It was the con-

tinuation of a terrific postseason for the three veterans, who also helped the Bruins win the title two years ago.

Horton, who was sidelined for the last part of the 2011 postseason by a concussion, left the series opener against Chicago with an unspecified upper body injury, but he practiced Friday and appears to be on track to play in Game 2 on Saturday night.

Game 5 ■ CONTINUED FROM 14 clinching basket helped the Spurs pull out a 92-88 victory.

The teams haven’t delivered a classic since. The Heat won by 19, lost by 36 and cruised by 16. The last few minutes of each have looked more like an October exhibition than a mid-June championship clash.

“You lose a game like we did in Game 2 and we come back and beat them in Game 3 and look like they looked last night, that’s what drives me crazy, because as coaches you try to prevent that,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said Friday during a conference

call. Neither team practiced.

“You like to be on a little bit more of an even keel and perform the same way each night, and the only thing I can tell myself after all these years is, you’re dealing with people, with emotions and not robots,” Popovich said. “They come out and they all play hard, but there’s that little intangible, that little spark of intensity or back against the wall, or a little bit of fear that just seems to kick in when you’ve lost the previous game. And when you find teams that can get over that, those are the championship teams.”

It’s the most uneven stretch of the NBA Finals since 2005, according to STATS, when San Antonio and the Detroit Pistons swapped four straight games decided by 15 or more points to open the series.

Back then, the Spurs could depend on Tim Duncan, Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili to get them righted. But now Parker has a shaky hamstring, Ginobili’s shot and confidence are even shakier, and San Antonio might need a throwback performance from Duncan in what could be his last home game in a storied finals career.

“If they don’t get more from Tim Duncan, Sunday is the Spurs’ last stand,” Hall of Famer Charles Barkley said on NBA TV’s postgame show.

Duncan knows that what the Spurs really need is to take better care of the basketball.

Their 17 turnovers led to 19 Miami points in Game 2, and they gave the Heat 23 points with their 19 turnovers Thursday.

“That’s a big problem,” Duncan said. “When we lose, that’s the big deal right there.”

A healthy Parker would help. He started strong in Game 4 while playing with

a strained right hamstring but couldn’t maintain it in the second half. He’s hoping the two-day break between games will strengthen his stamina.

“It’s going to be huge for me,” Parker said after the game. “Obviously, definitely got fatigued in the second half. Those two days I’m going to make sure I do a lot of treatment and to get 100 percent. Tonight, I was not 100 percent. By Sunday, that’s my goal, to be good to go.”

The Spurs can only help their Big Three looks as good as Miami’s was on Thursday.

With 33 points and 11

rebounds from James, 32 points from Wade, and 20 points and 13 rebounds from Chris Bosh, the Heat rode the top-heavy balance that’s supposed to deliver multiple titles to Miami.

But the team that sustained its excellence for 27 straight victories during the regular season hasn’t even been able to do it for consecutive games lately. Doubledigit victories in Games 3 and 5 of the Eastern Conference finals were followed by losses, as was their first victory in this series.

“Well, Game 5 is going to be a big game,” Bosh said. “I think we just have to stay in the place that we’re in.”

U.S. Open ■ CONTINUED FROM 14 “I don’t know how anyone is going to separate too far from the field,” Mickelson said. “There might be a hot round tomorrow, and they might get a hot round on Sunday, but unlikely to be the same player.”

No one was hotter than Horschel, playing in his first U.S. Open since he was a 19-year-old in college.

Nothing is tougher than Merion, the little course in the tony suburbs of Philadelphia that even in rain-softened conditions is showing plenty of might.

And to think there was chatter at the start of the week about the potential for the first 62 in major championship history.

“Perhaps next time you guys will believe when we say it’s really not that easy, that it’s really not that easy,” Geoff Ogilvy said after a 70. That put him at 4-over 144, which gave him and dozens of others a legitimate shot going into the weekend.

Donald (72), Luke Justin Rose (69) and Steve Stricker (69) were at evenpar 140.

The surprise were a pair of amateurs Michael Kim of Cal and Cheng-Tsung Pan of Taiwan. They were 2 under for their round and among those who didn’t finish.

The long day, brought on by storm delays on Thursday, began with cool conditions and patches of light rain that eventually gave way to sunshine. That led players to wonder how much tougher Merion will be once it starts to dry out.

“It’s not as easy as people think,” defending champion Webb Simpson said after a 75 put him six shots behind the clubhouse lead.

“I heard 15, 16 under floating around. And it’s going to be a normal U.S. Open winning score, I think.”

Horschel hit all 18 greens in regulation, a stellar achievement at a regular tour event, let alone the U.S. Open. It sent USGA officials searching for hours to find the last time anyone failed to miss a green in the toughest test in golf. Records of that detail only go back as far as 1989. That last documentation of someone doing that was Johnny Miller when he closed with a 63 at Oakmont to win in 1973.

Phil Mickelson tees off on the fifth hole during the second round of the U.S. Open at Merion Golf Club Friday in Ardmore, Pa.

graduation in San Diego, began with a three-putt bogey and appeared ready to pull away with a shot that nearly spun back into the hole at No. 8. He missed the birdie putt from 4 feet. Then he hit a beautiful tee shot over the water to a dangerous front pin on the par-3 ninth to about 7 feet. He missed that one, too.

Lefty three-putted from 20 feet on No. 12, and then flew a wedge over the green into a plugged lie for bogey on the par-3 13th. He kept battling until ending on a sweet note. With that birdie putt on his final hole, Mickelson was under par through 36 holes for the seventh time in the U.S. Open. The previous six times, he was a threat to win on Sunday. Mickelson has five silver medals as a runner-up, and all he wants is another chance.

“I just like being in the

mix,” he said. “I think it’s fun having a chance heading into the weekend. The way I have control off the tee and as good as the putter is even though it didn’t show today I’m very excited about the opportunity this weekend.”

Horschel doesn’t lack for confidence, even though the 26-year-old from Florida won for the first time on the PGA Tour just two months ago in New Orleans. He is an explosive player, capable of running off birdies without notice.

For this championship that meant keeping the ball in play.

His only bogey was on the 13th hole, the short par 3 and the easiest at Merion.

“I was not in the zone, trust me,” Horschel said.

“This golf course, even though it’s soft, is still a tough golf course. I know what ‘in the zone’ is for me.

I don’t get nervous, I just see the shot and go. And I saw the shot and I went with it, but I was still nervous with a lot of them. Your misses here can be bad if you miss in the wrong spot.”

Graham’s great round won him the U.S. Open.

Horschel still has a long way to go. Considering this packed leaderboard, it feels as though the tournament hasn’t even started.

For all his travails, Woods was only four shots behind. So was Rory McIlroy, who also had a 70.

vide a lift for the Bruins.

“It’s great. He’s a big part of this team and really missed him in the overtime after he went down,” Krejci said. “So it’s good to see him back on the ice.”

Krejci and Horton each had an assist when Lucic beat Corey Crawford for the first goal of the series in the first period. Krejci set up Lucic in the second, and he fired it into the net for his fifth goal of the playoffs.

Krejci leads the NHL with nine goals and 14 assists in the postseason.

Horton has seven goals and 11 assists in the playoffs, and Lucic also has 11 assists.

“I just think we’re going out there and having fun and we’re moving the puck well,” Lucic said. “We’re

shooting it when we get those opportunities. We’re skating well. We’re doing good things on the forecheck and the offensive zone, and also we’ve been able to play pretty sound defensively.

That is kind of the transition into our success for our line.”

The 27-year-old Krejci is the engine behind that success. The gifted center has a deft touch and a knack for creating opportunities for his teammates. He has at least 23 assists in each of the last five years, including a career-high 51 for the 2008-09 season.

Krejci also is a proven playoff performer. He had 12 goals and 11 assists during the 2011 title run. His considerable skill is a major reason why Julien isn’t con-

US OPEN AT A GLANCE A quick look at the still-to-be-completed second round of the U.S. Open at the 6,996-yard, par-70 Merion Golf Club (all times EDT): Clubhouse leader: First-round leader Phil Mickelson, who shot 72, and Billy Horschel, who shot 67, are tied at the top at 1 under, the only players in the field below par.

Closest pursuers: Luke Donald (72), Steve Stricker (69) and Justin Rose (69) were at even-par 140.

Still to be determined: Because of rain delays in the opening round, nearly half the field of 156 players were still on the course when play was suspended because of darkness.

Where's Tiger?: Woods' 70 left him at 3-over 143, four shots behind the leaders.

Tough Merion: With just two players under par and a cut-line projected at 8 over, predictions that Merion would would be a pushover as a U.S. Open venue are a long way from coming true.

Notable: Horschel hit all 18 greens in regulation during his round.

Quoteable: "There were people talking about 62s and 63s at the start of the week and, I mean, I never saw that at all." — Rory McIlroy.

Television: Saturday, noon to 7:30 p.m., NBC.

David Graham used his putter on every hole three from the fringe when he shot 67 to win the 1981 U.S. Open at Merion.

“I didn’t know I hit every green until I walked off 18,” Horschel said. “It’s a cool thing. But like I said, it’s not the first time I’ve hit all 18 greens. I’ve done it plenty of times in my career. Obviously, it’s at a U.S. Open, but I think the softness of the greens helped that.”

Pan played nine holes and was even par, along with Ian Poulter, who was plodding along in plaid at 1 under for his round through 14 holes. John Senden of Australia had a 71 and Nicolas Colsaerts of Belgium shot 72 to finish at 1-over 141.

CLEVELAND (AP) — Jason Kipnis’ run-scoring fielder’s choice in the ninth inning lifted the Cleveland Indians to a 21 victory over the Washington Nationals on Friday night.

With runners on second and third and one out, Kipnis hit a hard ground ball to the right side. First baseman Adam LaRoche made a diving backhanded stop and fired a throw to catcher Kurt Suzuki, but Drew Stubbs slid in with the

winning run.

Stubbs’ one-out single off Fernando Abad (0-1) started the rally before the Indians executed a perfect hit-and-run play.

As Stubbs broke off first, Michael Bourn punched a ground ball through the hole that opened when Steve Lombardozzi went to cover second base.

Stubbs advanced to third.

Joe Smith (3-0) retired the side in order in the ninth for the Indians, who have won three straight after losing eight in a row.

Steubenville football player classified as a sex offender COLUMBUS (AP) — A high school football player convicted of raping a 16year-old girl after an alcohol-fueled party last summer was given the state’s second-toughest sex offender classification at a Friday hearing.

The decision by Judge Thomas Lipps at Jefferson County Juvenile Court in Steubenville means Trent Mays could have to report to a local sheriff every six months for 20 years.

Unlike adult sex offenders, however, Mays’ name won’t be included on publicly accessible websites. And he can request to have the sex offender classification removed later based on his history of rehabilitation.

Lipps also agreed Friday with a request from Mays’ attorneys that the teen be transferred from Cuyahoga Hills Juvenile Correctional Facility near Cleveland to a southern

Ohio facility that works with sex offenders.

One of Mays’ attorneys said after the hearing he will ask Lipps to release Mays from state custody if he successfully completes the program at Lighthouse Youth CenterPaint Creek in Chillicothe.

That would be a departure from the two-year sentence that Lipps handed Mays in March when he convicted the teen of raping the West Virginia girl.

Mays, 17, also was convicted of using his phone to take a photo of the naked underage girl.

“The whole purpose of the juvenile system is rehabilitation,” Columbus defense attorney Adam Nemann said Friday. “If he’s in compliance and does everything he’s asked to do, as a juvenile he ought to be returned to his family and attempt to piece his life back together.”

Bruins ■ CONTINUED FROM 14 there today. If he feels good tomorrow, he’s in the lineup, simple as that.”

If Horton is unable to play, Tyler Seguin likely would move up to the top line. He filled in for Horton after he left Game 1, and had a handful of prime chances to lift Boston to the victory. Whether it’s Horton or Seguin playing with Krejci and Lucic, the Blackhawks know they have to do a better job of defending that line.

“I think that’s a line that has most of the offensive abilities that the good line should have,” Chicago defenseman Niklas Hjalmarsson said. “They got a big body with Lucic and Horton is a pretty big guy, too, and Krejci’s a good play-

maker and good shot, too. So they’re obviously one of the best lines in the league, if not the best.

“It’s going to be a fun challenge to play against them again tomorrow and see how it goes.”

Hjalmarsson was wrestling with Horton in front of the Chicago net during a Boston power play in the first overtime when the wing skated off with the injury. It appeared to be a serious problem at the time, since Horton decided at that pivotal moment that he was unable to continue.

But Horton managed to practice on the eve of Game 2 and didn’t appear to be inhibited in any way. He was not made available to the media, but just his presence at practice seemed to pro-

cerned about who plays alongside him in Game 2.

“He’s a pretty smart player,” Julien said. “He just wants players to move and he finds them. I don’t think it’s a big challenge for David.

I don’t think it’s a big challenge for whoever plays with him. All you got to do is the right thing: get open and he’ll find you.”

When it comes to defending Boston’s top line, Chicago wants to improve in a couple of different areas. A missed check by Hjalmarsson played a role in the first goal in the series opener, and Lucic was open again for his second score.

“We can be a little better,” defenseman Duncan Keith said. “Obviously, they scored a couple goals off the rush there. The first one was kind

of off a forecheck off the rush. But I think just being aware when those guys are out there, having good back pressure, and trying to keep the puck in their zone as much as we can when they’re on the ice helps, too.”

Many of the line’s rushes led to action in front of Crawford, who finished with 51 saves. He also is planning on making his own adjustments for Game 2.

“They’re a tough line to stop,” Crawford said.

“They’re big. They’re strong and they go to the net hard, but they make plays. Our guys, you know, just try to keep them on the outside as much as possible. For me, just be patient. Don’t commit to anything too early, because they do find the open guy.”
