FBI says Boston attack could not have been averted
FBI reviews found agents were constrained by federal law and Justice Department rules, limiting more extensive scrutiny of Tsarnaev despite congressional criticism. Officials said no new evidence emerged after Tsarnaev’s 2012 Russia trip to justify renewed inquiry, and surveillance tools were not applicable to the case.

Inscription Removed From MLK Memorial
Chinese sculptor Lei Yixin has removed a disputed paraphrase from Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial on the National Mall and is shaping a new finish. He plans grooves to align with existing horizon tal striations while deepening all grooves to match. The quotation from King's Drum Major speech, criticized by Maya Angelou for context, prompted the change.

Corrections In Wednesday's edition on King memorial article
The piece on the Martin Luther King Jr memorial is corrected to credit Susan Daizell as writer. Commemorations mark the 50th anniversary of King's To Have a Dream speech at the March on Washington. Lei describes new striations on the statue sides to avoid cracks. The memorial has drawn over 5.2 million visitors last year and should be finished around the August anniversary with costs between 700000 and 800000 funded by memorial maintenance funds.
