Police said a call came in for shots fi red at about 11:47 a.m. in the area of 17A Smith St. A man was found shot and was taken away in unknown condition, police said. Offi cers and detectives responded to the area to search for a suspect. Crime scene investigators marked evidence with cones and took pictures of the scene. / NICOLAUS CZARNECKI, METRO
The family of a 23-year-old Boston University student from China who was killed in the marathon bombings announced on Monday the formation of a foundation to honor her memory.
The Lingzi Foundation, named for Lu Lingzi, is a non-profit that will help provide
educational opportunities for courageous, adventurous and ambitious students like Ling-zi and support organizations that are making a positive impact in their communities, the organization said.
Lingzi was one of three people killed in the April 15 blasts. MICHAEL NAUGHTON

Police pursuit
Man leads cops on violent chase through towns
A man was arrested Mon-day afternoon after leading police on a chase through multiple towns and firing at officers who were pursuing him. The man, who was not identified by press time, was arrested after hitting a utility pole in Bedford.
Crime scenes were be-ing examined in Newton, Carlisle, Billerica and Bedford, as well as other communities. The man al-legedly ditched a car stolen from Newton in Billerica and then stole another car, police said.
Police reported shots fired, but it was not imme-diately clear if anyone was hit. METRO
MBTA arrest
Man arrested after verbal T tirade A Boston man was arrested Sunday night at Downtown Crossing station after allegedly sneaking in behind a woman and screaming derogatory names at her.
Transit Police say Eric Schell, 49, crept into the station after piggybacking behind the woman. Accord-
ing to police, “Before she was completely through the gates Schell was pushing her from behind and shouting ‘hurry up.’” Schell was located inside an Orange Line train around 7:51 p.m., where he alleg-edly refused to cooperate and continued his tirade toward the woman. He was due to be arraigned yesterday in Boston Municipal Court for a charge of disorderly conduct. METRO Schell / TRANSIT POLICE
Donors beware: Firefi ghter unions warn of scammers
In the rush to help the fami-lies of the two fallen Boston firefighters, multiple charities have sprouted online. But fire officials want to make clear that not all of those efforts were created with kindness in mind.
In recent days, the Profes-sional Firefighters Association
of Massachusetts and Local 718 have shared pictures on social media of charity scams.
“There are some people selling T-shirts and giving to the fund, but when others sell T-shirts and don’t give [money] to the fund, that’s pretty bad. It’s low. If someone is trying to make money off my two broth-er firefighters … I’m pretty mad at it,” said Rich Paris, presi-dent of Local 718, the Boston firefighters union.
Lt. Edward Walsh and Fire-fighter Michael Kennedy were killed last Wednesday after becoming trapped in a Bea-con Street home that caught fire. The investigation into the
9-alarm blaze is ongoing. The funerals for the firemen are set for later this week.
While the attorney gen-eral’s office has received no complaints about a particular firefighter fundraising scam,
the unions have posted images of donation pages that they said are scams and contain improp-erly used union logos on shirts.
The Boston Fire Department also urged people to donate only to credible charities.
“It is unfortunate that peo-ple would use this tragedy for profit. Please do not support any unofficial fundraising ef-forts,” the department said on its Facebook page.
An official fund has been set up through the Boston Firefighters Credit Union. Donations to the Lieutenant Walsh - Firefighter Kennedy Memorial Fund can be made at www.bosfirecu.com.
The attorney general’s of-fice has tips for people to give wisely. The office suggests that people donating online make sure that websites belong to legitimate, established and registered charities and that the website and charity match. Also, people should avoid do-nating through telemarketers.
“I’m proud of my firefight-ers and Local 718, and I don’t want anybody making money off of the back of my brother and sister firefighters,” Paris said.
Fallen heroes. False fundraising scams have been abusing good citizens’ charity after the recent death of two local fi remen.

Winter blues didn’t keep Cam-bridge’s bike enthusiasts off the roads. Cyclists made about 32,000 Hubway trips between December and mid-March.
Although no formal de-cision has been made, the healthy bike share ridership may mean Cambridge cyclists can expect year-round opera-tions to continue.
“We received a consider-able amount of positive feed-back from Hubway users about keeping the system open year-round, and the team did a great job of managing operations — including through the various storm events,” said Cara Seider-man, transportation program manager at Cambridge’s Com-munity Development Depart-ment.

Hubway is set to launch its spring operations Wednesday.

Benzino. Nephew claims self-defense in shooting The nephew of Boston hip-hop and reality television star “Benzino” claims he shot his famous uncle during a family funeral procession in order to protect himself.
Gai Scott, 36, of Randolph, pleaded not guilty Monday in Plymouth District Court to armed assault with intent to murder for allegedly shooting his uncle, whose real name is Raymond Scott, on Route 3 in Duxbury.
“When the dust settles with respect to this case, it’s going to be abundantly clear that Mr. Scott, a licensed gun owner, was acting in self-defense and in defense of his family,” Scott’s attorney said.
Scott was ordered held without bail pending a danger-ousness hearing Wednesday.
Benzino, 48, appears in the VH1 series “Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta.”
The shooting allegedly happened when Benzino came upon the funeral procession, which was for his mother, Mary Scott of Dorchester.
The Boston native was released Monday from South Shore Hospital in Weymouth.
In a bedside interview, he told TheNEHipHop.com “I’m more embarrassed than anything else to be honest with you, because of me being a public figure then having people to see that me and my family is going through that.
“It’s unfortunate,” he added. “Money brings the worst out of people.” MORGAN ROUSSEAU
Dysfunction
The Plymouth district attorney’s
offi ce said in a statement that
“there has been growing family
tension between [Benzino] and
Gai Scott.”
• Benzino said he paid his respects to his mother in private at a Quincy funeral home but wanted to skip the procession and burial because of family tensions over money.
Groups make push for jobs, better benefi ts Members of the Boston Jobs Coalition and community organizations held a rally in Downtown Crossing on Monday against Boston area developers. The groups took aim at the company developing the former Filene’s site and claimed it has failed to provide Boston with the benefi ts they agreed upon. Protesters urged develop-ers not to take tax breaks to build luxury housing without creating higher-wage jobs and meeting the city’s construction hiring and aff ordable housing goals. / NICOLAUS CZARNECKI, METRO

What she’s watching
Schumer does stand-up fi ve nights a week, so she says it’s hard to fi nd time to zone out in front of the TV, but when she does, it’s usually with her sister. “There’s this really insane show called ‘Total Divas’ about female [WWE] wrestlers. My sister and I like to drink some wine and watch that show.”
Amy Schumer isn’t just in it for the laughs anymore. As the second season of “Inside Amy Schumer” begins (Tuesday at 10:30 p.m. on Comedy Cen-tral), so do sketches, stand-up and interview segments that ask more of their audience than to sit back and giggle.
“I guess because my profile as a comedian has gone up and people are watching the show, I feel a little bit more respon-sibility to be actually saying something,” Schumer says of the new season, in a voice much more vulnerable than the brassy bellow she uses on-stage. “Something” can mean anything from sketches poking fun at misogyny in comedy to stand-up about being insecure.
In one sketch, a focus group of men respond to questions about a show by an unnamed woman. As the focus group

leader asks increasingly lead-ing questions — “but how did you like how she looked?” — the men fall into buffoonery.
But for those who are just fine with comedy and televi-sion the way they are, season two of “Inside Amy Schumer”
revels in the same silliness that made season one such a standout. “I watched a lot of ‘The Twilight Zone’ growing up and I feel like a lot of the scenes enter ‘The Twilight Zone.’ My mind goes to the absurd,” Schumer says. Don’t be surprised when comedian Michael Ian Black shows up to sell his services as an “inter-racial wedding photographer” or a fake commercial peddles “finger blasters” snacks.
Along for the ride is a cadre of guest stars that Schumer says she feels lucky to have booked based on the first season’s popularity. Actors and comedians like Zach Braff, Mike Birbiglia and Paul Giamatti make appearances. Absurdity eclipses any message when Schumer and Giamatti make out, and that’s just fine. JULIA FURLAN

Bachelor gets bonked
Atlantic City didn’t have the kindest of receptions for “Bachelor” star Juan Pablo Galavis and his girlfriend, Nikki Ferrell, who came to the resort town for a special appearance at The Pool After Dark at Harrah’s Resort Atlan-tic City on Saturday night.
Galavis and Ferrell ap-peared on the red carpet around midnight — and the locals were angry. Galavis was originally to sit at a VIP table next to the stage until someone (it is not known who this local hero was) threw
an aluminum beer bottle at him. After that, the organizers moved him to a cabana area for his own safety.
According to reports (read: the publicist who sent me this), Ferrell joined Galavis in the VIP cabana area where they “kissed” and “held hands” until around 3 a.m., hopefully fulfilling all contrac-tual engagements.
Read: The two didn’t stick around for very long. Once they collected their paycheck, they flew to Miami the next day.

A side of Turkey
Classical and cats
Traveling on what is essentially a fl oating
building can mean small destinations are overrun
with people who just hopped off the same ship as you did. Azamara tries to change that, off ering excursions built into the
cost that are a little dip into something special. At the ancient ruins at Ephesus
in Turkey, an archaeologi-cal gem goes cultural. As the cats of Ephesus (the cutest and least eff ective
security guards ever) skitter around the Odeon, guests take in the sunset to the
sounds of a quartet playing familiar, gorgeous Bach
and Beethoven.

With Azamara, you’ll get to explore after other cruises have sailed away. Blip this page to see more . / ALL PHOTOS BY TIM FATATO
By sea. A cruise of mythic proportions doesn’t need a gigantic ship.
It’s impossible not to become an Odysseus wannabe among the bleached-white houses and blue-domed churches dotting Greece’s Mediter-ranean landscapes. In fact, it’s easy to take on a touch of Homer while traveling his ter-rain — there are mythically gorgeous vistas and unforget-table meals. But ultimately, it’s Homer’s own currency — stories — that make each moment of a trip like this come to life. This is a place where the rich history means everywhere you go, there’s a story in it — and knowledge-able locals will help you un-derstand if you’re interested in knowing more.
With so much to see, opt-ing to visit Greece and Turkey by sea is a convenient way to take in the many, many sights and sounds (not to mention the meals!). On ships like the 686-person Azamara Journey, travelers don’t have to worry about getting lost on the ship — they can put their energies into getting lost on shore. And when everything is steeped in centuries of ancient history, cruising can help organize a kaleidoscope of beauty into one memorable voyage. It’s no wonder Odysseus wanted to go back so badly.
Postcard-perfect Oia
When people say “Oh, I would love to visit Greece,” the town of Oia, on the island of Santorini, is usually the image in their mind. The traditional whitewashed structures — with churches capped in blue domes — are poised on the edge of a slope that leads to a perfectly azure ocean. The view is tough competition for even the most delicious Mediterranean meal.
When in Greece ...
While you’re already hopping the flight to the Mediterra-nean, there’s no reason not to extend your sea voyage to get more time on land. And if you’re willing to forgo room service — and overpriced fare — taking a shot at living like a local has a romance about it that’s hard to deny. A $150 Airbnb rental will get you a penthouse overlooking the Acropolis, complete with a roof deck framed by rose bushes. A major reward for renting a home and having
an adventure is that you’ll get to stock your fridge, which is its own pleasure. Bonus: Ges-ticulating wildly about various kinds of olives will get you some samples, and they will be well worth the trip.
Adventures by night
Mykonos
Part of the Azamara experi-ence is getting the chance to explore after the sun goes down. Sometimes, that can mean an impromptu jaunt to a restaurant like Hippie Fish, where the sardines are fresh and Greece’s national drink, ouzo, makes it very easy to forget that the ship does, in
fact, depart. Racing through the maze of shops and restau-rants in the Mykonos town to get back on the ship is only part of the adventure. And if you stop to take a photo with the town’s resident mascot, a pelican named Petros (the second or third, depending on who you ask), the only thing that really matters is that you make it back on time.

Food fi ght for freedomThe Obama administration has refused a request from Ukraine for weapons and ammunition. Instead, rations will be sent. All is not lost. The rations — known as MREs (Meals Ready To Eat) — can be thrown at invading Rus-sian soldiers. Anything military related referred to by initials sounds intimidating anyway. The Russians might think that the rations are a peace off ering and be deterred from their evil designs, which would result in yet another Nobel Peace Prize

Animal cruelty is post-FloodGlenn Beck and other stalwarts of the Christian right have at-tacked the recent blockbuster “Noah” as being “pro-animal” and unfaithful to the Bible. The fi lm is both pro-animal and
faithful to the Bible, at least to the Book of Genesis, our only source for the story of Noah. It is only after the fl ood that humans get permission to eat animal fl esh. Even then, the Bible stipulates that lives of only select animals may be taken and always with reverence and minimal cruelty. This is a far cry from today’s slaughterhouse practices.

Jenny Dell was nowhere to be seenon Opening Day. / GETTY IMAGES
Red Sox see an Opening Day dud in loss to OriolesMLB. The Red Sox fell in their fi rst game of the 2014 season as they struggled to produce runs.
Broadcasts of Red Sox games on NESN will look somewhat different now than they did in 2013.
On Opening Day, NESN threw something of a curveball at Sox fans as the network had Gary Striewski reporting on the sidelines. The sideline reporter job has been in flux at NESN since Jenny Dell went public with her relationship with Boston third baseman Will Middlebrooks in late De-cember. Dell was “re-assigned” and appears on NESN Sports-Desk. Female reporters Elle Duncan and Sarah Davis had worked several spring training games on NESN in March, but it was Striewski who got the nod on Opening Day against the Orioles.
Striewski is the first male Red Sox sideline reporter since Eric Frede (2004-05). He follows the likes of Tina Cer-vasio (2006-08), Heidi Watney (2008-11) and Dell (2012-13). Striewski was hired as a NESN
MLB. NESN breaks recent tradition, replaces Dell with male Sox reporter
“features reporter” last June but goes by the title of “Sports Ninja at NESN” on Twitter.
Many Sox fans voiced their displeasure about the situation at NESN on Twitter, as “Jenny” was trending in Boston for much of Monday afternoon. MATT BURKE
Red Sox starter Jon Lester threw 104 pitches over seven innings in what would typi-cally be considered a terrific first start — but it was his 93rd pitch that he would like to have back.
With the game tied at one in the bottom of the sev-enth, Orioles slugger Nelson Cruz belted the first pitch of the inning over the wall
in left field, putting the Ori-oles ahead for good in their 2-1 win over the Red Sox on Opening Day on Monday.
Grady Sizemore continued his hot spring and trium-phant return to baseball as he went 2-for-4 with a home run.
Every player in the Red Sox lineup recorded a hit, except Daniel Nava and Will Middlebrooks. Dustin Pedroia extended his season opener hit streak to eight, passing Mo Vaughn for the longest in club history.
The Red Sox had their chances to tie the game as they left two runners on in both the eighth and ninth in-nings, including a David Or-tiz fly out to center with the tying run on second in the ninth. Overall, Boston went 0-for-9 with runners in scor-ing position.
By the numbers
990Grady Sizemore hit his fi rst home run since July 15, 2011, or 990 days, on Monday. The solo shot accounted for Boston’s lone run on Opening Day.

SPRING 2014
SHOWN FOR THE FIRST TIMENOW THROUGH SEPTEMBER 1, 2014
In 1963, the publisher of S U P E R M A Ncollaborated with the Kennedy White Houseto create a story promoting the President’sCouncil on Physical Fitness. The story was published in July 1964, eight months after the President’s assassination, as a special tribute to him.
Perhaps it was inevitable that the vigorous,young President who made physical fitness a national priority would join forces with the red-caped, comic book hero whose feats of super-human strength so captured the popular imagination.
