SAN ANTONIO -- San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker suffered a left leg injury Wednesday night that forced him out of a 121-96, Game 2 win over the Houston Rockets.

The Spurs said he'll undergo an MRI exam Thursday, and at that point his status will be updated.

"It's not good," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said in his postgame news conference after San Antonio evened the Western Conference semifinals at 1-1.

Parker was carried off the court by teammates Dewayne Dedmon and Dejounte Murray after falling to the floor and grabbing his left knee and did not return. The injury became apparent after Parker's jump shot in the lane with 8:43 remaining in the fourth quarter, with the Spurs leading 97-83.

Parker could be seen grimacing in the tunnel as he was turned and carted off.

Meanwhile, Spurs owner Julianna Hawn Holt, who took over as CEO for her husband, Peter Holt, last March, rose from her courtside seat screaming, and walked toward an official before she was pulled back to her seat.

Britain's Prince Philip, 95, will retire from royal duties

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Associated Press 15 mins ago By GREGORY KATZ, Associated Press

LONDON - Prince Philip, the consort known for his constant support of his wife, Queen Elizabeth II, as well as for his occasional gaffes, will retire from royal duties this fall, Buckingham Palace said on Thursday.

Philip, 95, made the decision himself with the full support of the queen, the palace said in a statement. The royal, known as the Duke of Edinburgh, has suffered from heart disease and other ailments in recent years but has nonetheless maintained a vigorous public schedule.

He seemed to be in good health and a fine mood Wednesday during an appearance at a London cricket club. He joked about being the world's most experienced person when it comes to unveiling plaques.

That may be true: Official figures indicate he has made more than 22,000 solo royal appearances and thousands more at the queen's side.

Philip, a member of the Greek royal family in exile, has been at Elizabeth's side in countless public appearance since their marriage in 1947. He gave up a successful naval career to support her when she became queen in 1952.

He became the longest-serving consort in British history in 2009 - much as Elizabeth has become the longest reigning monarch in British history.

Prime Minister Theresa May expressed gratitude "on behalf of the whole country" to Philip for his decades of service. "From his steadfast support for Her Majesty the Queen to his inspirational Duke of Edinburgh Awards and his patronage of hundreds of charities and good causes, his contribution to our United Kingdom, the Commonwealth and the wider world will be of huge benefit to us all for years to come," she said.

Officials said the queen, who turned 91 last month, will keep carrying out royal engagements with the support of the royal family. She has indicated that she does not plan to retire. Elizabeth has, however, reduced her workload considerably in recent years as her children and grandchildren have moved to the fore. She has stopped making long-haul air flights to other Commonwealth countries. Attention has been increasingly focused on her son Prince Charles, the heir to the throne, and on her grandson Prince William and his wife Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge.

The palace said Philip will continue his role with more than 780 charitable organizations but will not attend engagements. He is not expected to disappear completely from the public stage - the palace said he may still choose to attend some events from time to time. The palace did not offer any new details about his health and there were no indications of any new problems.

The statement indicated Philip will carry out previously scheduled engagements between now and August. Philip said when he turned 90 in 2011 that he was "winding down" his official duties, adding that he felt he had "done my bit." He was treated later that year for a blocked heart artery but seemed to recover well. He has been hospitalized several times since then with other ailments.

The queen is normally quite reserved about her private life but she has described her husband as "my strength and stay all these years." She met with May at the palace on Wednesday and has made several public appearances recently.

The queen and Philip were both ill with the flu over the Christmas holidays but seem to have recovered well. Earlier in the day, a report by Britain's Daily Mail of an unusual meeting of royal household staff sparked a worldwide wave of speculation about the health of the queen and Philip, including incorrect reports that the flag atop Buckingham Palace had been lowered to half-staff.

The Sun tabloid briefly reported on its website that Philip had died. The incorrect report was quickly dropped. In Australia, where the queen is recognized as head of state, officials praised Philip's perseverance.

"It says something about an individual that they get to the age of 95 before they decide to officially retire," Australian Deputy Prime Minister Barnaby Joyce told reporters. "It's something to aim for."

Tourists outside Buckingham Palace also had kind words for Philip as he nears the end of his public life.

"He's been an icon for so long, and I've really admired him and it saddens me in a way," said Grace Marie, who said she understood his decision.
Danica Kirka and Kevin Scott in London and Kristen Gelineau in Sydney contributed.

Raina Thaiday was experiencing a psychotic episode when she turned on her four sons, three daughters and a niece in Cairns in December 2014. But because she was on the episode, she will not stand on trial.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
An Australian woman who killed eight children in a stabbing attack at her home will not stand trial because she was of "unsound mind" at the time.

Raina Thaiday was experiencing a psychotic episode when she turned on her four sons, three daughters and a niece in Cairns in December 2014.

The legal decision - made last month but only now made public - means she cannot be held criminally responsible.

Thaiday, 40, is being held at a high-security centre in Brisbane.

It is unclear if she will ever be released back into the community.

The house where the children, aged between two and 14, were killed has been demolished. It has been replaced with a park to remember Malili, Angelina, Shantae, Rayden, Azariah, Daniel, Rodney and Patrenella.

'Schizophrenia at its worst'

Thaiday, also known as Mersane Warria, had been charged with the children's murders but Queensland's Mental Health Court ruled she should not stand trial.

Experts said before the killings she had never been treated for mental illness.

Several psychiatrists testified that it was likely that Thaiday's mental state had deteriorated in the months beforehand.

Thaiday believed she was the "Chosen One" and became obsessed with cleansing to protect herself and her family from demons.

A "dove call" - either real or imagined - sent her over the edge.

Forensic psychiatrist Dr Jane Phillips told the court: "She heard the sound of a bird and believed from hearing that sound it was a message she must kill the children to save them."

Psychiatrist Dr Frank Varghese said Thaiday was suffering from an "apocalyptic delusional state".

"This is quite a unique case and a horrendous case, the likes of which I've never seen before," he said.

"This is schizophrenia at its very depth and its worst."

'Unsoundness of mind'

The bodies were discovered by Thaiday's adult son, Lewis Warria. He found his mother in front of the house with 35 self-inflicted stab wounds.

Justice Jean Dalton said there was a convincing body of evidence that Thaiday could not control or understand her actions.

"Ms Thaiday had a mental illness that deprived her of capacity at the time of the killing," Justice Dalton said.

"That is, that she is entitled to the defence of unsoundness of mind - there is just no doubt about that on the evidence, and there is no doubt about the legal conclusion that flows from that."

Guardians of the Galaxy

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Marvel's origin stories are where it shines the brightest, while first sequels (see "Iron Man," "Thor," "Avengers: Age of Ultron") have generally registered on the lower end of its cinematic accomplishments.

By that measure, "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" somewhat bucks the trend, despite an underwhelming villain and a meandering midsection, which are partly offset by a strong opening and finish.

While the first movie assembled a team of space-faring misfits, this one takes off with them carrying out a mission for a race of golden aliens that goes spectacularly wrong. Forced to flee across the galaxy, the gang encounters a benefactor (Kurt Russell) who claims to be the long-lost father of Peter Quill, a.k.a. Starlord (Chris Pratt), who grew up knowing only his mother before being whisked off to become a space-traveling thief.

Writer-director James Gunn again milks plenty of comedy from the rest of the gang, perhaps foremost from the ill-tempered raccoon Rocket (voiced by Bradley Cooper) and the hulking, literal-minded Drax (Dave Bautista). At the same time, so-called "Baby Groot" -- a pint-sized, indisputably adorable version of the monosyllabic, anthropomorphic tree -- feels like nothing quite so much as an attempt to sell plush toys.

There is also continued flirtation between Quill and the green-skinned alien Gamora (Zoe Saldana), who is wrestling with her own family problems. In this case, the friction comes from her sister Nebula (Karen Gillan), who's determined to kill her for complicity in the torment she suffered at their hands of their evil father, Thanos.

"Guardians" blasts off with an initial burst of good-natured energy before indulging in some ill-advised sequences, foremost among them a slow-motion fight scene that cavalierly notches a distasteful body count, even in this over-the-top setting.

The movie rallies, eventually, with its not-so-subtle message about family being what you make of it, cheeky humor and deftly chosen classic song soundtrack, weaving in tunes like Looking Glass' "Brandy" and Cat Stevens' "Father and Son." There's even an asteroid-dodging space flight that owes a spiritual debt to "The Empire Strikes Back."

Poised to kick off the summer box-office season in rousing fashion, "Guardians" can hardly escape the fact that it is now part of Marvel's larger machinery, including an appearance in the upcoming Avengers movie "Infinity War" and another already announced sequel. The latter is teased during the teeming closing credits, and the brief snippet shown frankly looks more enticing, at least for comic-book fans, than the somewhat sketchy plot of "Vol. 2."

"You are wasting a lot of time here," Starlord grouses at one point, which might as well be a commentary about the movie's middle.

In terms of sheer entertainment value, though, this "Guardians of the Galaxy" ultimately shares just enough with its central quintet -- rather heroically getting the job done, even if the trip from here to there can be a bit disjointed and messy.

"Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" opens May 5 in the U.S. It's rated PG-13.

You and I might shop for a vehicle based on metrics such as performance, styling, options, fuel economy, comfort, and more, but for commercial fleet managers, it all comes back to cost. Fleet vehicles often work around the clock, and reliability, efficiency, and longevity are king because any amount of downtime costs money. Ohio's Workhorse Group thinks it has the perfect light-duty truck for those criteria: the Workhorse W-15 4WD Plug-In Electric Work Truck.

Workhorse isn't the first company to attempt to put an electric pickup on the road, but it is the first to build one from the ground up rather than convert an existing truck. Phoenix Motorcars has been converting Ford E-Series vans to electric drivetrains for years and attempted, briefly, to do the same to a SsangYong pickup imported from South Korea. Via Motors has been converting Chevrolet Silverados and Express vans into plug-in hybrids for a few years now, but both graft electric motors onto the existing powertrain.

Workhorse has taken the idea a step further and is poised to beat the much-hyped Tesla EV pickup to market by several years. Like Tesla, Workhorse builds its own battery pack with Panasonic 18650 lithium-ion cells and mounts it fully under the vehicle, where it doubles as the truck's frame. Front and rear subframes, each with an electric motor, single-speed reduction gearbox, and a fully independent coil-spring suspension, are mounted to the frame. Up front, a BMW-sourced three-cylinder gasoline engine acts a generator producing 50 kW of electricity to charge the battery or drive the electric motors. (It never powers the wheels mechanically.)

The battery pack is rated to carry 60 kilowatt-hours of electricity, though Workhorse limits its usable capacity to just 40 kW-hrs to reduce strain on the battery in heavy fleet usage and increase its lifespan. As such, the W-15 has an electric-only range of 80 miles. Once the battery is drained, the gasoline engine kicks on and gives the truck another 310 miles of gas-powered range from its 11-gallon tank. Workhorse estimates the W-15 will get 28/32 mpg city/highway when running on regular gasoline, easily besting every other gas- and diesel-powered light-duty pickup on the market.

When it comes time to charge, the W-15 accepts 110-volt, 240-volt, and DC fast chargers. On a typical 240-volt charger, it'll need six to seven hours to fill an empty battery. Ideally, a fleet vehicle like this would be plugged in every night when returned to the yard, ensuring drivers use electric power as much as possible and gaining access to lower overnight charging costs. Even charging during the day, the W-15 will cost significantly less to operate than a gas-only truck. Our office pays $0.07 per kW-hr at peak demand during the day, and it only costs about $4.00 to fully charge our long-term Chevrolet Bolt's 60-kW-hr battery. The pack is air cooled and heated to operate in all temperature ranges, though extreme temperatures will affect range.

Actually powering the wheels are two 230-hp/172-kW electric motors, one at each axle, producing a total of 460 hp, though the truck is limited to 80 mph for efficiency. This setup allows for full-time all-wheel drive with active torque vectoring, giving the W-15 greater theoretical off-road capability than a typical stock truck, but its 12 inches of ground clearance and long front overhang could limit the obstacles it can tackle. The motors can also act as generators under regenerative braking to capture braking energy.

Workhorse's purpose-built chassis also allows for greater payload and towing than converted trucks. A 6-foot-6-inch bed and extended cab are the only configuration available at launch, and they can hold up to 2,200 pounds of payload. The W-15 can also tow 5,000 pounds and has a gross vehicle weight rating of 7,200 pounds, making it comparable to a V-6-powered pickup. The Via Motors truck, by comparison, has a 1,000-pound payload capacity and a towing capacity estimated at around 4,000 pounds.

Even though the W-15 can't touch a gas- or diesel-powered pickup's payload and towing capabilities, CEO Steve Burns says that isn't the point. The W-15 is aimed at fleet managers who want to reduce costs on their light-duty vehicle fleet. These trucks are generally used for local service calls and rarely tow or haul heavy equipment, and when that capability is needed, there are other trucks in the fleet better suited to the task. Workhorse has more than 5,000 preorders, mostly from electrical utilities looking to replace their gas-powered pickups for in-town duty.

It's obvious at first glance the W-15 is designed for work. A light bar with yellow hazard lights is integrated into the roof, and a sprayed-in bedliner is standard. A power export module is mounted behind a door on the passenger's side of the bed and puts out 7.2 kW, enough to easily power a job site. The export pulls power off the battery, and if you manage to drain it, the generator will kick on. Workhorse is working on a 14-kW module that'll allow the truck to power a whole house in the event of a power outage.

The bed and the entire truck body are made from lightweight carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, which is stronger and lighter than metal and doesn't dent. In the event it's damaged, it can be repaired or the panel can easily be swapped out. With the lightweight body, dedicated chassis, and no available options (for now), the W-15 weighs in at just 5,000 pounds. (The Via truck weighs 6,500 pounds.) The bed can support lumber racks, toolboxes, camper shells, and anything else you can think to mount to it.

Like most EVs, the W-15 carries its weight down low, giving a low center of gravity and a feeling of solidity on the road. Because there's only one hand-built prototype at the moment, our test drive was limited to a large convention center parking lot. This early example was, as you might expect, a bit rough around the edges. There's a bit of shunting in the powertrain, the brake pedal is soft with vague response, and the steering is light and slow, but it all feels like it could be easily cleaned up with some work on the control software.

Look past the prototype foibles, and it drives like a big, tall Tesla. Power is smooth and instantaneous. Workhorse says it'll hit 60 mph from a stop in 5.5 seconds, and that feels accurate. The regenerative braking is currently very light, but it will increase before the truck goes into production. Thanks to the low center of gravity, the truck feels planted to the ground and corners surprisingly flat. As the battery was at 75 percent charge, we didn't get to experience the range extender in action, but Workhorse plans to include a way to manually start the generator in the production truck. The truck seemed to ride nicely, but the parking-lot surface was in good condition.

Controlling the truck is a familiar affair. A key is required to unlock the steering column, and a button on the steering wheel starts the truck. Drive is selected via a rotary knob mounted in the middle of the dashboard, below a medium-sized floating touchscreen. The touchscreen handles most of the vehicle's functions through a simple, intuitive interface that works even when you're wearing gloves. Baked into it is Workhorse's Metron fleet management software, which keeps the fleet manager apprised of the truck's location and condition in real time. All of the truck's software can be updated over the air like a Tesla, though nationwide sales and service will be handled by fleet giant Ryder.

If the touchscreen proves distracting, the W-15 comes standard with collision warning, emergency braking, lane departure warning, and lane keep assist. It'll also feature adaptive cruise control and a full complement of airbags. Workhorse is hoping to achieve the highest-ever ratings for a pickup from both the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The big front crumple zone gives the truck a lot of front overhang, and there's only a tiny frunk that's just big enough to hold adapters for the power export.

For now, there's only one cab and bed configuration and no options to keep the ordering and manufacturing process simple. The extended cab features short rear doors and seating for five, though the rear seat looks a little small for burly construction workers. Still, Workhorse says it's the most popular cab for fleets, and more options will be available in the future. Also to come: W-25 and W-35 heavy-duty models. In all, the truck is about the size of a Toyota Tundra with the extended cab and 6-foot-6-inch bed, just a bit longer in the nose.

Assuming all goes well, the Workhorse W-15 will go into production in late 2018 at a price of $52,500 (Via's truck is $65,000), and it will qualify for the $7,500 federal tax rebate (assuming it's still around) and some state tax rebates. Workhorse hopes to build 10,000 trucks in its first year for fleet customers only. Further out, the company will consider selling directly to consumers if there's enough demand.

It's easy to be pessimistic about the W-15's future, given how many automakers have tried and failed to sell a hybrid pickup in the past. Even General Motors couldn't get the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra hybrids to catch on. Workhorse, though, isn't just a startup. It's been in the business for years. Noticed any UPS trucks with the word hybrid on the side in your neighborhood? Workhorse builds those, as well as trucks for FedEx, Penske, Ryder, DHL, and more. The company knows vehicle production, and it knows fleets. Moreover, it's the first company to build a dedicated hybrid truck rather than cram batteries into an existing vehicle never designed for them, and the advantages show in the truck's capabilities. We've already asked to test one if and when the W-15 goes into production.

Juventus made a 90 million bet on Gonzalo Higuain, and it's paying off

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
It cost Juventus 90 million to bring Gonzalo Higuain to Turin. The Argentine had just come off a record-breaking 36-goal season for Napoli and he was one of the hottest strikers in the world. But paying an Italian record transfer fee for a near-30-year-old player with a reputation for bottling on the biggest stage directly after selling young phenom Paul Pogba off looked like a disaster in waitingfor a Juventus.

Yes, Higuain was a proven hitman, and his goalscoring resume was undeniable. He'd scored 121goals for Real Madrid, and a further 91for Napoli. But this was the same Higuain who'd become known for crucial misses on the biggest stage, most notably during the 2014 World Cup final when his one-on-one with Manuel Neuer early on set the tone for Argentina's eventual loss to Germany.

And for 90 million? The Old Lady could have signed most anyone in the world for that money and they chose Higuain, a player nobody would call one of the best strikers there is.

ThatHiguain was the type of player Juve needed was never in doubt.Paulo Dybala gave them a diabolical creative player, Miralem Pjanic a much-needed central midfielderand Dani Alves took over at right back, filling every need The Old Lady had except one -- striker. And they were desperate to patch that hole.

Juventus were coming off of adisappointing Champions League quarterfinal exit at the hands of Bayern Munich last season. Just a year before that, Juve had made it all the way to the final, only to fail at the last, losing to Barcelona. It was the closest Juve had come in years to a trophy they haven't won since 1996, and the disappointment was unbearable in Turin.

They managed to come close without a go-to striker. Now Higuain was going to fix that,or at least he better. For the money Juventus spent on him, the already sky high expectations for Higuain seemed impossible to reach.

There was only one way for Higuain to make 90 million worth it -- win Juventus a Champions League.

Fast forward to May, and Gonzalo Higuain's scored 31 goals in a Juventus shirt, making him the club's first 30-goal scorer since David Trezeguet 15 years ago. His goals have Juventus nine points clear at the top of the Serie A table with four matches to go and into the Coppa Italia final.

So far, Higuain's met all theexpectations heaped on his shoulders. He might have even exceeded them.

But goal tallies weren't going to be enough and Juventus didn't break their transfer record just to win Serie A for the sixth time in a row. The Old Lady are obsessed with adding the third Champions League trophy to their trophy case, and Higuain's purchase was directly in pursuit of that goal.

So far, he's delivered.

Higuain's goal against Lyon was the one that helped rescue a point and ensure Juventus would stay top of their Champions League group. He got goals against Dinamo Zagreb in both group stage fixtures, but it was his all-around game that's come to the fore on the European stage.

Despite not getting on the scoresheet in the first two knockout rounds against Porto and Barcelona, Higuain's been the consummate team player. Playing as the lone striker in Juventus' new 4-2-3-1 formation, he's been tasked not only with being Juventus' outlet and finishing off attacking moves as the spearhead of their team, but with working nonstop on the defensive side of the ball as well. He's moved into that role seamlessly, and he's played a key part in the fact that Juventus haven't conceded a goal in over 600 minutes, including two legs against Barcelona.

Even though he's been fantastic as a team player, the criticism wouldn't stop for Higuain if he was just hustling extra hard and laying on assists. For 90 million, he had to score them too.

Against Monaco, he did exactly that.

Juventus traveled to Monaco for the first leg of their semifinal. His day started like a nightmare, and two early missed chances had the internets grumbling and joking about Higuain's bottling ways once again. After 28 minutes though, all the grumbling and jokes stopped. Pipita's instinctive, sweeping finish made it 1-0 for Juve. On 59 minutes he made it 2-0, and put Juve one step closer to that ever-elusive Champions League goal.

If Juventus can finish off Monaco -- and up 2-0 going home there's no reason to think they can't -- then it will be on Higuain's shoulders.

He's beeneverything Juventus could have hoped, but, but it won't matter one bit if Juventus don't win Champions League. Just getting this far isn't good enough anymore, and for Pipita to truly be considered a success he's got to help deliver the trophy with the big ears. It doesn't matter if he scores the goals, lays them on, or hacks them off the goal line. He just has to help bring it to Turin.

The good news? He's right on track.

ST. LOUIS, MO (KTVI) - A 34-year-old woman was reportedly grazed by a bullet a Cardinals baseball game Tuesday night. She was in Busch stadium when a bullet hit her in the elbow. Her seat was near the Cardinal's dugout.

A police report says that she felt a pain in her arm while she was in her seat. She noticed a small abrasion above her elbow when she took off her jacket. The bullet was found near her seat.

The woman went to one of Busch Stadium's first aid stations for treatment. They contacted an off-duty officer working a second job at the game. That office helped file the report with the St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department.

The woman did not want to be treated at the hospital. She describes the injury as a flesh wound.

It is unclear where the gunshot came from. Police say the shot may have come from outside the stadium. They are still investigating the shooting.

The St. Louis Cardinals have issued this statement about the incident: "We are aware of an incident last night in which a fan reported being struck by a stray bullet that presumably originated from outside of the stadium. The fan was treated for an abrasion and a bruise on her arm at First Aid and released. She was interviewed by police who are investigating the matter. There is nothing more important than the safety of our fans, and the Cardinals are grateful that no one was seriously injured. We will be sharing more information with the media as further details emerge."

A statement from St. Louis Police says, "This further amplifies our yearly message of encouraging 'Fun Without Guns.' We know 'what goes up must come down,' and in this case, an innocent victim was struck. The department constantly stresses the importance of safety and responsible gun ownership"

The St. Louis Cardinals were playing the Milwaukee Brewers Tuesday night. The Redbirds won the game 2-1. The game was the second in a four-game series. The Cardinals and Brewers are virtually tied for second place.

Former South Carolina police officer Michael Slager is pleading guilty to violating the civil rights of an unarmed black motorist he shot and killed as he ran from a 2015 traffic stop.

A copy of the plea agreement obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday also shows state prosecutors are dropping a pending murder charge against Slager. The AP obtained the agreement from a lawyer familiar with the case who didn't want to talk publicly before it was finalized.

Slager was scheduled to appear in federal court Tuesday for motions ahead of his federal trial planned for later this month in the death of Walter Scott.

A bystander captured Scott's shooting on cellphone video, viewed millions of times.

Slager's first trial on state murder charges ended in a hung jury.
