Lombardi helps Michigan State stun No. 13 Michigan 27-24
Rocky Lombardi threw for 323 yards, including 196 to Ricky White, and three touchdowns to help Michigan State stun the Wolverines 27-24 on Saturday. Tucker became just the second coach to beat Michigan in his first attempt with the Spartans, joining Alabama coach Nick Saban, who did it in 1995. The former Colorado coach started his career as a graduate assistant for Saban at Michigan State in 1997. The onside kick was recovered by Michigan State running back Connor Heyward. “State fans and former players and everyone deserve the brand of football that we were able to show out there," Tucker said.

cnbc.comU.S. judge blocks Ohio 'heartbeat' law to end most abortions
(Reuters) - A federal judge on Wednesday blocked Ohio from enforcing a new law that critics said would effectively ban most abortions in the state, starting as early as six weeks into pregnancy. It was designed to stop doctors from performing abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected. Ohios law was challenged by the American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood, which said it could end 90 percent of abortions in the state. The Ohio law includes exceptions for when a womans life or health is at risk, but not for rape or incest. In his ruling, Barrett said enforcing Ohios law would cause irreparable harm to patients by undermining their well-settled constitutional right to abortion access.

REUTERS/Jeenah Moon/File Photo(Reuters) - A federal judge on Wednesday issued a preliminary injunction blocking Ohio from enforcing a law that critics said would effectively ban most abortions in the state, starting as early as six weeks into pregnancy. The law was designed to stop doctors from performing abortions after fetal heartbeats can be detected. Several other states have also passed heartbeat abortion bans, betting that a solid conservative majority on the U.S. Supreme Court could eventually overturn Roe v. Wade, the 1973 decision declaring abortion a constitutional right. Daniel Tierney, a spokesman for DeWine, said in an email: Governor DeWine has long believed that this issue would be decided by the United States Supreme Court.
feeds.reuters.comJudge blocks Ohio "fetal heartbeat" abortion law
A federal judge temporarily blocked an Ohio law Wednesday that would ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat can be detected, allowing clinics to continue to provide the procedure as a legal faceoff continues. The ruling by U.S. District Judge Michael Barrett halts enforcement of the so-called heartbeat bill law that opponents argued would effectively ban the procedure. Mike DeWine signed the Ohio law in April, after predecessor John Kasich, a fellow Republican, twice vetoed it. Ohio is among a dozen states that have considered similar legislation this year, as abortion opponents have pursued a national anti-abortion strategy to overturn the landmark Roe v. Wade decision. "The heartbeat bill has the potential to be the vehicle that overturns Roe v. Wade," Mike Gonidakis, the group's president, said in a statement.
