UNEXPECTED RICHES

MORE COWBELL

LOST BOVINE

With his luck, he should look for buried treasure in the yard, too

Don’t mess with Swiss traditions if you want to be a citizen there

Rescue a cat in a tree? No sweat. Save a cow in a pool? Harder.

Getting a jump on spring cleaning paid off last week for Joemel Panisa of Salem, Ore., who was motivated by the ice and snow that had made a mess of things. He was straightening up his home office when he found an envelope he had stashed away a year ago, and inside was a Mega Millions lottery ticket. It turned out to be worth $1 million. His timing was lucky, too, lottery officials said in a news release: The ticket expires today. (EXPRESS)

A Dutch activist who has lived in Switzerland for 33 years was refused citizenship last week because her neighbors find her annoying. One of Nancy Holten’s campaigns is against traditional Swiss cowbells (consider the animals’ hearing). In Switzerland, locals get a say in citizenship requests, and her neighbors in Gipf-Oberfrick gave her a thumbs-down. As one neighbor told Swiss website The Local, Holten, 42, has “a big mouth.” (EXPRESS)

Oklahoma City firefighters were called Sunday after a homeowner heard a mysterious “snorting” coming from his pool area. Emergency responders discovered a hole in the pool liner and a cow trapped in the water. Firefighters used their pumps to remove 5 feet of water from the pool so the cow wouldn’t experience hypothermia. A wrecker then was summoned to hoist the 1,500-pound animal to safety. The cow appeared to be uninjured. (AP)

One trumped-up substitute

Army Sgt. Maj. Greg Lowery, left, and Army Spc. Sara Corry stand in for Donald and Melania Trump during a rehearsal of the swearing-in ceremony.

“It’s just a real honor for all of us to be here this morning,” Lowery said. Spc. Sara Corry, who arranges music for the band, wore a white peacoat and nude pumps to stand in for Trump’s wife, Melania. Corry, 28, said her shoes were new, and while Melania Trump’s fashion choices will be a topic of conversation, Corry didn’t know what designer she was wearing. The faux first couple was joined by Master Sgt. Neil Ewachiw, 47, and Master Sgt.

A special Bible Mike Pence will use Ronald Reagan’s family Bible when he’s sworn in as vice president Friday. The Republican former Indiana governor says it’s “humbling” to be the first to use the Bible in an inauguration ceremony since Reagan. The Bible was also used for Reagan’s swearingin as governor of California. Once it arrives in Washington, it’ll be kept under lock and key. It has not yet been announced what Bible will be used by Donald Trump. (AP)

Leigh Ann Hinton, 50, band vocalists who were standing in for Vice President-elect Mike Pence and his wife, Karen. During Sunday’s dry run, the stand-in president-elect and vice president-elect waved to rows of empty chairs and raised their hands as if they were being sworn in. They spent some time adjusting their positions so that cameras set to capture the real swearings-in could get the best angle, and then workers marked the spots for the actual players. Not everyone participating in the pageant needed to be a good match for the person they were playing, with men playing women and women playing men. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who will swear in Pence and became the court’s second African-American member in 1991, was played Sunday by a woman with long, blond hair. One closer match for his counterpart was 12-year-old Charlie Blunt, the son of Republican Sen. Roy Blunt of Missouri, who was drafted to play Trump’s 10-yearold son Barron. Asked after the rehearsal whether he had any pointers for Barron, Charlie said, “Just smile and don’t slouch.” JESSICA GRESKO (AP)

DINING

Shaw Bijou closes after 2½ months The Shaw Bijou in Northwest D.C. closed Sunday, just 2½ months after opening Nov. 1, and the owner says the blame for the restaurant’s short existence is shared among all the principals. Kelly Gorsuch, the principal owner, said the restaurant’s pricey tasting-menu dinner, which cost around $500 per person with drink pairings, wasn’t filling seats or covering costs. Neither first-time chef Kwame Onwuachi, above, nor general manager Greg Vakiner could be reached for comment. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

THE DISTRICT The hair was the giveaway. The man in the black coat, white shirt and red tie who raised his right hand as if to take the oath of the nation’s highest office Sunday sported a military trim. And that was just one way to tell that Greg Lowery, a 53-yearold vocalist in the U.S. Army band, was no Donald Trump, and Sunday’s inauguration rehearsal at the U.S. Capitol wasn’t real. But the sergeant major was a game stand-in for the soon-to-be 45th president, as were other band members given prominent roles. The goal was to practice Inauguration Day events so everything goes off as flawlessly — and on time — as possible for the actual swearing-in Friday. Lowery, who said his role was to “look the part as much as possible,” said the substitutes were chosen primarily because they are as tall as the people they were playing. He bought a new, red tie for the assignment, although he acknowledged it wasn’t Trump brand.

Like ‘salt in the wound’ Some in the District don’t want to watch Trump’s victory lap. So they’re skipping town.

Inauguration spotlights D.C. infrastructure

after Trump clinched his victory, she thought inauguration weekend would be a convenient time to go. Niehaus, who described herself as “not super-partisan,” attended George W. Bush’s second inauguration and Barack Obama’s first one in 2009. She said that ever since the “Access Hollywood” tape leaked of Trump making lewd remarks about women, she “can’t stomach” the thought of him as president. “I can’t believe he is going to be sworn in,” Niehaus said. “It’s disgusting, and I don’t want to watch it.” Even the most ardent Trump detractors escaping the District to avoid the inauguration will have to eventually face that Trump is the White House’s new occupant. “For a minute, we can go away, look at pretty scenery, and then come back and deal with reality,” Harris said.

THE DISTRICT As a candidate, Donald Trump said he wanted to make America’s infrastructure great again. As president, he’ll have plenty of ways to get started in his new hometown. The Arlington Memorial Bridge, D.C.’s most recognizable span over the Potomac River, is in such bad shape that it will be closed to all vehicular traffic during Friday’s inauguration. Hundreds of thousands will rely on the Metro subway to reach the Capitol and the National Mall, and they’ll get a firsthand look at a system that has repair needs measured in the billions. Even the Washington Monument is shut down because of a broken elevator. Visitors won’t be able to ride to the top again until at least 2019. Political leaders in the region say the city’s infrastructure mess presents an opportunity for Trump and Republicans in Congress to show they can govern and deliver on one of the new president’s campaign promises. But as Trump gets ready to take office, those local leaders are not optimistic that he’s ready to follow through. “It’ll be in his face. He’ll see the worn-out infrastructure right here where he lives,” said Eleanor Holmes Norton, a Democrat who is D.C.’s delegate in Congress. “But we don’t yet have, especially for the first 100 days, any indication that he wants to start off with a plan.”

THE DISTRICT While Donald Trump is being sworn in as the 45th president of the United States on Friday, David Harris will be with his wife on Easter Island, a remote Polynesian isle possessed by Chile. There will be no cellphone service. No easy access to the internet. No way for him to follow what is going on more than 5,000 miles away in the nation’s capital. “We found it attractive to be on the most isolated, uninhabited island in the world,” said Harris, 47, a former Democratic political operative turned small-business owner who lives in Cleveland Park. “I don’t have to participate in the pageantry of that day.” D.C. residents have a front-row seat to inaugurations every four years. But in a city where 76 percent of the registered voters are Democrats, that prime seat can be rebuffed when a Republican president is elected — particularly, it seems, when the president being sworn in is Trump. Just 4 percent of Washington voters selected Trump on their ballots, lower than his share in any state. By comparison, about 9 percent of D.C. residents voted for George W. Bush in 2000. Residents who are still reeling from Trump’s unexpected victory — and who have some cash to burn — are fleeing D.C. so they don’t have to witness the history they never wanted to happen. And with D.C. Public Schools being closed Thursday and Friday, many families are using the long weekend for a vacation. David Nemeth, an electrical engineer who lives in the District, is traveling with his wife

The Capitol building is seen Monday ahead of Friday’s inauguration of President-elect Donald Trump.

and two children to Chicago to see the musical “Hamilton.” Nemeth said they know another D.C. family that will make the same trip. They all made their plans a few days after the election after seeing a special offer for the theater tickets. “It wasn’t so much that we lost, it was that the election was so nasty and the rhetoric was so nasty,” Nemeth said. “So to have that victory lap right in front of me felt really egregious, kind of like rubbing salt in the wound.” Nemeth said he’s had more time to process the election, and had he waited a few more weeks before booking the plane tickets, he would have considered sticking around to attend the Women’s March on Washington the day after inauguration. But, he said, he’s still glad he’s going and views it as a fun family vacation. “I definitely understand people’s right to come here,” he said.

Democratic lawmakers’ boycott grows to 31 A growing group of Democratic lawmakers will boycott Presidentelect Donald Trump’s inauguration Friday to protest his worldview and criticism of civil rights icon John Lewis, congressman of Georgia. There are now 31 House Democrats who have declared that they will not attend the inauguration. The number rose sharply after Trump tweeted Saturday that Lewis is “all talk, talk, talk” and should “focus on the burning and crime infested inner-cities.” Lewis had said that Trump’s election was not “legitimate” because of Russian interference.

High court to hear case on offensive trademark Ruling could affect the Washington Redskins in a similar name fight COURTS The Slants aren’t exactly a household name when it comes to music, but the Asian-American rock band has certainly made its mark in the legal world. The Oregon-based group has spent years locked in a First Amendment battle with the government, which refuses to register a trademark for the band’s name because it’s considered offensive to Asians. That fight wi ll play out Wednesday in the nation’s highest court as the justices consider whether a law barring disparaging trademarks violates the

band’s free-speech rights. The case has drawn attention because it could affect the Washington Redskins in a similar fight to keep the team’s lucrative trademark protection. The government canceled the team’s trademarks last year after finding they are disparaging to Native Americans. For Slants founder Simon Tam, the name was chosen not to offend, but to take on stereotypes about Asian culture. He says the band is reclaiming a term once used as an insult and transforming it into a statement of cultural pride. “Words aren’t equipped with venomous impact on their own,” he said in an interview. “They have to be tied to motive and rooted in context.”

But the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office didn’t see it that way. It refused to register the name in 2011, saying a trademark can be disparaging even if it’s meant to be used in a positive light. The Washington Redskins had hoped to piggyback on the Slants case and have the Supreme Court hear their dispute at the same time — even before the case finishes working its way through lower courts. But the justices declined to take up the unusual request and a Virginia federal appeals court has put the Redskins case on hold pending the outcome of the Slants case. A loss of the team’s trademark would strip the Redskins of certain legal protections, but would not force it to change the name. SAM HANANEL (AP)

D.C.’s ‘Kush God’ ordered to spend 60 days in jail

Official: Kids hurt in deadly house fire are improving

Authorities say two men were injured in a stabbing that stemmed from an argument after a soccer game at a high school in Northern Virginia. Fairfax County police told TV station WRC that officers responded to South Lakes High School on Sunday. Two groups of non-students were playing soccer when an argument escalated and police say a suspect took out a “cutting instrument” and stabbed two men. One person was stabbed in the upper body and taken to a hospital with life-threatening injuries, according to police. The second man was stabbed in the leg. Police are searching for the suspect, who fled. (AP)

A man known as the “Kush God” has been sent to jail after he was accused of violating probation by continuing to sell marijuana. Nicholas Cunningham, 31, was ordered last week to spend 60 days in jail after prosecutors say he boasted online that he was still selling marijuana. Cunningham pleaded guilty in March to distributing marijuana, prompting a judge to place him on probation. Authorities said Cunningham then posted on Facebook and Twitter about selling marijuana in May. Cunningham operated a fleet of vehicles — painted with images of marijuana leaves — that authorities say were used to sell pot. (AP)

A Baltimore fire official said two young children who were injured in a massive house fire last week that killed six of their siblings are improving. Fire Department spokesman Chief Roman Clark said Sunday that the girl and boy, ages 4 and 5, have been upgraded from critical condition to good condition. They remain at a hospital. Clark said their mother, who also escaped the fire, is still in critical condition. Firefighters encountered heavy flames coming from all three floors of the home when they answered the call around 12:30 a.m. Thursday. Clark said the cause of the fire remains under investigation.

nation+world Noor Salman faces charges in Florida for obstruction of justice

NATIONAL SECURITY The wife of the Orlando, Fla., nightclub shooter was arrested by the FBI on Monday in connection with the attack, authorities said. Noor Salman was taken into custody Monday morning in the San Francisco area and is facing charges in Florida including obstruction of justice. A Twitter post from the U.S. attorney’s office in Orlando said Salman will make her initial appearance this morning in Oakland, Calif. Noor Salman moved to California after her husband, Omar Mateen, was killed in a shootout

with SWAT team members during the June 12 massacre at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando. Mateen was the only shooter in the attack, which left 49 patrons dead and 53 hospitalized. FBI agents repeatedly questioned Salman after the shooting about whether she had advance knowledge of her husband’s plans. Salman told The New York Times in an interview published last fall that she knew her husband had watched jihadist videos but that she was “unaware of everything” regarding his plans to attack the club. She also said he had physically abused her. “Noor Salman had no foreknowledge nor could she predict what Omar Mateen intended to do that tragic night,” her attorney, Linda Moreno, said

it dishonors the memories of the victims to punish an innocent person.” Attorney General Loretta Lynch commented on the arrest in an MSNBC interview on Monday. “We said from the beginning, we were going to look at every aspect of this, of every aspect of this shooter’s life to determine not just why did he take these actions, but who else knew about them? Was anyone else involved?” Lynch said. Orlando Police Chief John Mina said in a statement that Salman was facing accusations of obstruction of justice and “aiding and abetting by providing material support to a foreign terrorist organization.”

Report: Police violated civil rights for years Chicago officials are pledging to revamp the city’s police department after a scathing report, but a new presidential administration could disrupt the process. A year-long probe by the Justice Department released Friday found that police in the nation’s second-largest department had violated the constitutional rights of residents for years, including by frequently using excessive force, shooting at people who did not pose imminent threats and using stun guns on others only because they refused to follow commands.

Company announces closure of iconic circus after a 146-year run BUSINESS When Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus announced late Saturday that it would permanently end all of its performances this May after a 146year run, there seemed to be a collective gasp online. The show spent decades touring the U.S. by train, transporting its iconic spectacle — along with hundreds of animals, performers and big-top tents — from city to city. However, in recent years, the circus had been facing mounting obstacles: declining ticket sales, high operating costs and an increasingly negative public sentiment about forcing captive wild animals to perform. “There isn’t any one thing,” Kenneth Feld, chairman and CEO of Feld Entertainment, told The Associated Press. “This has been a very difficult decision for me and for the entire family.” The company has about 500 employees, who were informed Saturday night of the closure. In 2015, Ringling Bros. announced it would stop using elephants in its shows. The elephants delivered their final performances last May — and then were retired to a reserve

in central Florida. “Ringling Bros. ticket sales have been declining, but following the transition of the elephants off the road, we saw an even more dramatic drop,” Feld said Saturday. “This, coupled with high operating costs, made the circus an unsustainable business for the company.” Among animal activist groups, news of its closure Saturday was met with a resounding cheer. “Ringling Bros. has changed a great deal over a century and a half, but not fast enough,” Wayne Pacelle, president of the Humane Society for the United States, said. “It’s just not acceptable any longer to cart wild animals from city to city and have them

perform silly yet coercive stunts.” The animal rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals also welcomed the announcement, calling it “the end of the saddest show on earth.” “All other animal circuses, roadside zoos and wild animal exhibitors, including marine amusement parks like SeaWorld and the Miami Seaquarium, must take note: Society has changed, eyes have been opened, people know now who these animals are and we know it is wrong to capture and exploit them,” PETA said. Ringling Bros. has two circus units; the final shows will be in Providence, R.I., on May 7, and in Uniondale, N.Y., on May 21. AMY B. WANG (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Five killed in shooting at music festival at resort A shooting attack at a music festival in Mexico’s Caribbean coast resort of Playa del Carmen early Monday left five people dead, including two Canadians, an Italian and a Colombian, authorities said. The attorney general of Quintana Roo state said three of the dead were part of the security detail at the BPM music festival. The attack, at a crowded beachfront nightclub, set off a bloody stampede; at least one person died in the crush to escape and some of the 15 people wounded or injured were hurt in the rush out, authorities said.

A man alleged to have killed 39 people during an Islamic Stateclaimed attack on a nightclub in Istanbul during New Year’s celebrations has been caught in a police operation, Turkish media said early Tuesday. The suspect was caught in a special-operations police raid on a house in a housing complex in Istanbul’s Esenyurt district, private NTV television said. The report said he had been staying in the house of a Kyrgyz friend. Hurriyet newspaper and other media have identified the suspected gunman as Abdulkadir Masharipov, an Uzbekistan national. NTV television said the man had resisted arrest. (AP)

The corruption scandal that has gripped South Korea took a sensational turn Monday when special prosecutors sought to arrest the de facto head of Samsung. The independent counsel investigating the case accused Lee Jae-yong — who is officially the vice chairman of Samsung Electronics but runs the massive corporation controlled by his family — of bribery, embezzlement and perjury, and asked a local court to issue a warrant for his arrest. The prosecutors say Lee ordered his executives to use corporate money to pay bribes to a confidante of President Park Geunhye. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump shocks EU leaders President-elect raises fears in Europe after calling NATO ‘obsolete’ POLITICS European leaders grappled with the jolting reality of Presidentelect Donald Trump’s skepticism of the European Union on Monday, saying they might have to stand without the U.S. at their side during the Trump presidency. The possibility of an unprecedented breach in transAtlantic relations came after Trump — who embraced anti-EU

insurgents during his campaign and following his victory — said in an interview that the 28-nation bloc was bound for a breakup and that he was indifferent to its fate. He also said NATO’s current configuration was “obsolete,” even as he professed commitment to Europe’s defense. Trump’s remarks have raised alarm bells across Europe, which is facing a wave of elections this year in which anti-immigrant, Euroskeptic leaders could gain power. Most mainstream leaders have committed to working with Trump after Friday’s

inauguration, even as they exxpressed hope that he would modderate his views once he took off fice. His continued hard line has created the painful realization in Europe that they may now have to live without the full backing of their oldest, strongest partner. “We will cooperate with him on all levels, of course,” German Chancellor Angela Merkel told reporters in Berlin. But she said Europeans would need to take responsibility for themselves. “We Europeans have our destiny in our own hands,” she said. MICHAEL BIRNBAUM (THE WASHINGTON POST)

‘Insurance for everybody’ POLITICS President-elect Donald Trump said in a weekend interview that he is nearing completion of a plan to replace President Barack Obama’s signature health-care law with the goal of “insurance for everybody,” while also vowing to force drug companies to negotiate directly with the government on prices in Medicare and Medicaid. Trump declined to reveal specifics in the telephone interview late Saturday with The Washington Post, but any proposals from the incoming president would almost certainly dominate the Republican effort to overhaul federal health policy as he prepares to work with his party’s congressional majorities. Trump’s plan is likely to face questions from the right, after years of GOP opposition to further expansion of government involvement in the health-care system, and from those on the left, who see his ideas as disruptive to changes brought by the Affordable Care Act that have extended coverage to tens of millions of Americans. In addition to his replacement plan for the ACA, also known as Obamacare, Trump said he will target pharmaceutical companies over drug prices. “They’re politically protected, but not anymore,” he said of pharmaceutical companies.

With few details, Trump says his plan to replace Obamacare all but done

Donald Trump said he’ll target pharmaceutical companies over drug prices.

In general, congressional GOP plans to replace Obamacare have tended to try to constrain costs by reducing government requirements, such as the medical services that must be provided under health plans sold through the law’s marketplaces and through states’ Medicaid programs. Trump said he expects Republicans in Congress to move quickly and in unison in the

coming weeks on other priorities as well, including enacting sweeping tax cuts and beginning the building of a wall along the Mexican border. Trump warned Republicans that if the party splinters or slows his agenda, he is ready to use the power of the presidency to usher his legislation to passage. “The Congress can’t get cold

feet because the people will not let that happen,” Trump said. Trump said his plan for replacing most aspects of Obama’s health-care law is all but finished. Although he was coy about its details — “lower numbers, much lower deductibles” — he said he is ready to unveil it alongside Speaker of the House Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky. So far, Republicans have taken the first steps toward repealing the law through budget reconciliation, a process in which only a simple majority is needed in the Senate. The process would enable them to dismantle aspects of the law that involve federal spending. As he has developed a replacement package, Trump said he has paid attention to critics who say that repealing Obamacare would put coverage at risk for more than 20 million Americans covered under the law’s insurance exchanges and Medicaid expansion. “We’re going to have insurance for everybody,” Trump said. “There was a philosophy in some circles that if you can’t pay for it, you don’t get it. That’s not going to happen with us.” Republican leaders have said that they will not strand people who gained insurance under the ACA without coverage. But it remains unclear from either Trump’s comments in the interview or recent remarks by GOP leaders on Capitol Hill how they intend to accomplish that.

On MLK Day, Trump meets with King’s son CIVIL RIGHTS As Americans celebrated the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. on Monday, civil rights leaders and activists tried to reconcile the transition from the nation’s first black president to a presidentelect still struggling to connect with most non-white voters. Trump won fewer than 1 of 10 black voters in November, and tensions have flared anew with his recent criticism of a civil rights icon, Rep. John Lewis, D-Ga. Lewis angered Trump when he told NBC’s “Meet the Press” that he views Trump as “illegitimate” because of alleged Russian interference in the campaign. Trump retorted on Twitter that Lewis is “all talk” and said his district is “falling apart” and “crime infested.” On Monday in Atlanta, King’s daughter Bernice King spoke to more than 2,000 people gathered at her father’s Ebenezer Baptist Church, and encouraged Americans to fight for the slain civil rights leader’s vision of love and justice “no matter who is in the White House.” She said the nation still has a choice between “chaos and community,” as her father said. Her brother, Martin Luther King III, above, met privately with the president-elect at Trump Tower in New York. King III told reporters there that they had a “constructive” discussion about voter participation and representing all Americans. (AP/THE WASHINGTON POST)

NFL The NFL’s Rooney Rule, a policy that requires teams to interview minority candidates for head coaching and general manager jobs, is credited with expanding opportunities and diversifying the league’s most high-profile positions since it was adopted in 2003. Heading into the 2017 season, the le ag ue wi l l have eight minority head coaches: Ted Bowles (Jets), Jim Caldwell (Lions), Hue Jackson (Browns), Vance Joseph (Broncos), Marvin Lewis (Bengals), Anthony Lynn (Chargers), Ron Rivera (Panthers) and Mike Tomlin (Steelers). With an eye toward increasing that number, NFL officials in December agreed that the Rooney Rule should be informally applied to offensive and defensive coordinator openings starting this year. On Monday, Washington was the only team seeking both an offensive and defensive coordinator. Offensive guru Sean McVay was named head coach of the Rams on Jan. 12, and Joe Barry was let go as defensive coordinator on Jan. 5. There was no evidence the Redskins have interviewed a minority coach for either opening.

Cyrus Mehri, a Washingtonbased lawyer who was instrumental in drafting the Rooney Rule as counsel to the Fritz Pollard Alliance, said the team has a chance to take a leadership role on diversity by ensuring a broad search. “It would be a great thing for the league and for the team,” Mehri said. “You don’t know if you have the best until you cast a wide net.” It has been eight years since the Redskins have had a minority in either coordinator job. During the Jim Zorn era (200809), Greg Blache was defensive coordinator and Sherman Smith was offensive coordinator. Two of their predecessors, Marvin Lewis (Redskins defensive coordinator in 2002) and Hue Jackson (Redskins offensive coordinator in 2003) are now head coaches. Soon after firing Barry, the Redskins received permission to interview a minority candidate in Panthers defensive backs coach Steve Wilks. But Wilks was promoted to the Panthers’ defensive coordinator job before the interview. The first two men interviewed for the defensive coordinator job were former Jaguars coach Gus Bradley — who’s believed to favor joining Lynn and the Chargers — and former Browns

to speak to Guenther, and Phillips took the job with the Rams. Greg Manusky, the Redskins’ outside linebackers coach, who has five years’ experience as a defensive coordinator, is also regarded as a candidate. None of these five is a minority. The Redskins’ offensive coordinator job has been vacant less than one week. Most speculation centers on an “in-house” hire. Of the Redskins’ five position coaches on offense, all three non-minorities have been mentioned in the media as candidates: offensive line coach Bill Callahan, quarterbacks coach Matt Cavanaugh and tight ends coach Wes Phillips. Neither of the Redskins’ minority position coaches, Ike Hilliard (wide receivers) and Randy Jordan (running backs), has been mentioned, but both could be under consideration.

WIZARDS 120, BLAZERS 101 As Washington revitalizes its season, stockpiling one home win after another and surging up the standings, it still lacks a certain deftness from long distance. Even with spot-up specialists in Bradley Beal and Otto Porter Jr. and an otherworldly passer in John Wall to deliver the ball, the Wizards have ranked among the lowest 3-point-shooting teams in the NBA. In their first 39 games, they were exceptional at the rim but made only 8.3 shots per game from 3-point range. On Monday, however, the

Wizards stretched their game into the perimeter and dismantled the Trail Blazers’ defense in a 120-101 win at Verizon Center. Six players hit at least one 3-pointer as the team knocked down 13 of 23 attempts. The Wizards (21-19) extended their league-leading home winning streak to 12 and, for the second straight game at Verizon Center, the starters ended the game on the bench. Beal perfected his shooting stroke, hitting all three of his attempts beyond the arc and scoring a game-high 25 points.

Wall scored 24 points, and Markieff Morris (17 points and 13 rebounds) posted his third double-double of the season. Portland (18-25), already one of the league’s worst defensive teams, gave no resistance as the Wizards mixed in straight-line drives with spot-up 3s. While the Blazers sleepwalked, Washington put on target practice and opened the game on a 10-0 run.

TENNIS Roger Federer shanked a few shots and was unsettled by how nervous he felt after six months on the sidelines, despite the familiar surroundings at the Australian Open. No other man on tour knows the way around a Grand Slam tournament better than Federer, who is playing in his 69th major and has won a record 17. He served 19 aces and had only one double-fault in a 7-5, 3-6, 6-2, 6-2 win over fellow 35-year-old Jurgen Melzer, but he dropped serve three times Monday in Melbourne. “It was like, ‘Whew, it’s not as easy as I thought it was going to be,’ ” said Federer, who hadn’t played at tour level since Wimbledon.

STUDIES SHOW ...

A little goes a long way

Extroverts tend to do better in group fitness classes like treadmill running or boot camp.

GABRIELLA BOSTON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

MARILYNN MARCHIONE (AP)

Where do you fit in? To find the fitness routine that works for you, first consider your personality traits WORKOUTS What is the best fitness routine for you? Many instructors and trainers will say that “the best fitness routine is the one you will do consistently.” But if you’re not already in a good routine, how do you find the right fitness direction — the one that will promote consistency? Some say that looking at your personality outside the fitness world can help you figure out what works. In which case, you need to know: What is your fitness personality? Are quantitative goals important to you? If so, try fitness trackers, spin class, treadmill workouts and the like. Maybe you’re more energized by the group setting and having goals that are less trackable. Try group fitness, a la Zumba. “If you’re a Type A personality, you probably have a quantitative goal. You might be wearing a fitness tracker, and you probably feel you need a reason to work out,” says Pete McCall,

a spokesman for the American Council on Exercise. “On the other hand, if you’re more motivated by collaboration, whether there is a quantitative goal or not, then you might do well in something like Zumba, where the purpose is to have a dance party,” McCall says. Cassia Denton, director of personal training and group exercises for Balance Gym in Washington, says to look specifically at what energizes you in life. “The first thing to look at is what tends to recharge you outside of work. Is it a hot bath and a glass of wine? Or is it a big meal with friends?” Denton says. “This can be telling in terms of what will help you stay motivated.” In other words, are you an introvert or extrovert? The former, Denton says, might do well in a spin or yoga class, where, although there are people around you, the room might be dark and the focus is turned inward. The latter might do better in a group fitness class such

Where should I go? The only way to know what type of gym works for you is to try them out. Pete McCall of the American Council on Exercise notes that many gyms (including boutiques and boot camps) offer free, trial or discounted memberships in January. “It’s like a favorite restaurant — it’s not just the food, it’s whether you feel comfortable in the space,” he says. G.B.

as CrossFit, treadmill running or boot camp, where not only can people see you but there also might be an element of collaboration. “If you’re in the ‘big meal with friends’ category, this might be a good fit, because there is a certain amount of focus on interacting with other people,” Denton says. Liz Kerr, a D.C. resident, says her personality partly fits Type A’s desire to track workouts and see results (she takes spinning three times a week and tries to

lift twice a week), but over time she has added yoga, which is a little less quantifiable. “It just makes me feel better,” she says. “It’s hard to measure, but my flexibility is better and my balance is better.” Kerr, who tends to lift on her own, says coming to a class often inspires her to work harder, both because of the instructor and the people around her. In other words, you can be social and competitive at the same time. “If the instructor is good, they will make everyone, no matter what their fitness level, feel comfortable, and still make sure they get a good workout,” she says. Once you have figured out your fitness personality and started your routine, then what? McCall says to keep it up for six weeks or so and then start homing in on your fitness goals. “In the end, exercise should be fun, enhance your life and not just make you look good, but also feel good,” he says.

People who pack workouts into one or two sessions a week lower their risk of dying nearly as much as those who exercise more often, a recent JAMA Internal Medicine study found. U.S. and global guidelines call for 150 minutes of moderate or 75 minutes of vigorous exercise each week. Researchers surveyed 64,000 adults in England and Scotland from 1994 to 2008, and grouped them based on activity: inactive (no exercise), regular exercisers (met guidelines), weekend warriors (met guidelines in one or two sessions) and insufficiently active (got less than recommended amount). They found that the risk of dying was 30 percent lower in weekend warriors and insufficient exercisers versus those who were inactive. Regular exercisers lowered their risk by 35 percent. Any exercise cut the risk of dying of heart disease by 40 percent, compared to the inactive group.

DR. ANDREA BONIOR | BAGGAGE CHECK

Too much love for one wedding? Q. My fiancee comes from a conservative religious family, and many of them will be meeting my family for the first time at our wedding this spring. My sister has been with her female partner (whom we all love) for six years. My fiancee thinks it would be easiest if my sister keeps things “low-key” at the wedding and does not make it obvious that she and her partner are a couple. My fiancee is not against my sister’s relationship, but her family is very anti-gay and she thinks it will keep things peaceful if they don’t have public displays of affection. I say I would never ask my sister or her partner to do that. HELP! If she’s not against your sister’s relationship, she sure is acting like it. I get that she doesn’t want to watch her Great-Uncle Harold squirm during the champagne toast. But your sister’s about to be her family too. Her choosing to stifle love that she supposedly supports, all because of some potential grumbling from people she supposedly doesn’t agree with in the first place? Make it clear that this is non-negotiable. Sure, there can be general caps on PDA — no

twerking for anyone — but say your sister will not be shoved in a closet for the sake of indulging some bigoted views. It’s your fiancee’s responsibility to handle her family in whatever way she wants. Give your sister a friendly headsup, so she and her partner can choose how and whether to calibrate their behavior. Not because someone is making them do so, but because no one deserves to walk unknowingly into a land mine just by showing they love their partner.

on my girlfriend of 1 ½ years. I couldn’t hold it in and I told her 12 hours after I cheated. I love her and feared losing her, and this whole episode made me realize that my girlfriend is the girl I want to spend my life with. She told me that she loves me and that I need to work really hard to have her trust me again. What makes this harder is that I can’t forgive myself. I look in the mirror and I hate myself because I almost lost her and because of all the pain I caused her. I don’t know if we will ever be OK, because I don’t know where to begin the healing process. I SCREWED UP You’re lucky that you get to focus not on convincing her to give you a chance, but instead on working to make sure you are worthy of her decision. Figure out what contributed to your actions. Alcohol? Boredom? A sex drive left unchecked? A need for attention? An inability to set boundaries? An underlying crack in your relationship? You will forgive yourself, in time, only if you start being the partner that she deserves, and you’ll do this by better understanding the gap between how you want to behave and how you actually did. Your pain can be an asset if it’s a motivator to do right, and a deterrent from doing wrong again. Send questions to Dr. Andrea Bonior at baggage@wpost .com.

entertainment The actor suits up as an eccentric pontiff for his first TV role in decades TELEVISION Jude Law knows what you’re thinking. An HBO series called “The Young Pope,” starring one of Hollywood’s most dashing leading men in the title role? “Everyone was expecting, with me in the part and the name, oh, it’s going to be choir boys and prostitutes at the Vatican,” Law says. Instead, the most scandalous thing about Law’s character, a

youthful but conservative American pontiff born Lenny Belardo, is his penchant for chain-smoking and guzzling Cherry Coke Zero. The 10-episode series, which premiered Sunday, is Law’s first foray into TV in nearly two decades. He claims he was drawn to the opportunity to work with writer-director Paolo Sorrentino. “It’s a director’s medium, and you’re there to be a color on the palette,” he says. “If you trust them enough, you know that it will make sense in its entirety.” In turn, Sorrentino says he was looking for a performer who

could capture the “juxtaposition between childishness and virility, innocence and power” that characterizes Lenny. He adds that Lenny is the opposite of the current Pope Francis, whose modesty and inclusive tone have endeared him to many. And this is by design, says Sorrentino, who was interested in exploring how the church might respond to Francis in the future. “In the Vatican too, like in other states, an alternation between progressiveness and conservatism is plausible.” MEREDITH BLAKE

REVERSE TYPE II DIABETES You’re Invited to a

Free Gourmet Meal and Diabetic Event

Here is what Drs. Chaney’s patients are saying... “When I started my A1C was 12.5 - it was terrifying. The program to me was life changing. When I thought I was eating right they let me know that what I was eating was good for some people but it wasn’t good for me. I thank God for Dr. Steph and Dr. Tom Chaney because they turned my life around.”

“I am reporting to you three years after joining the program. I am 50 pounds lighter, I am happier, healthier and my A1C is no longer 13 but 5.4.” -Glennis G.

-Milton A.

“I can not tell you how great I feel. My energy is way up and my sleep is so much better. I am thrilled with Dr. Tom and Dr. Steph for helping me regain my personal health and reverse my diabetes.”

-Barry B.

“When I started this program my A1C was 8.9. My current A1C is 5.7. I was taking Metformin and two types of blood pressure medications. My blood sugars before the program were running in the 180’s. Now my blood sugars are running in the 110’s. After 2 months in the program my doctors stopped my Metformin that was phenomenal! I’ve also lost 25 pounds.”

“My first visit was very pleasant. My second visit is what changed my life. I have been a patient for 6 months. My A1C has gone from 6.6 to 5.7. I started out 70 pounds heavier. But coming to Living Health wasn’t about weight loss it was about type 2 diabetes. As you can see from my numbers that my type 2 diabetes has been reversed which is the intent of the program.”

“I came to this program because my A1C had drastically gone up to 9.2 and I was 215 pounds. Six months into the program my A1C dropped from 9.2 to 6.2 and my weight has dropped from 215 pounds to 195.”

“All I can say is it really works. I’ve been in the program for 5 months and I feel like a whole new woman. I’ve lost 40 pounds, I’m not on any diabetic medication anymore - that stopped pretty quick! My A1C went from 7.8 to 6.”

-Marissa M. My A1C was 8. Two months after that it was 6.4. As of a couple of days ago it is 5.9. I am ecstatic about that. I can only hope...I know, not hope, I know...that my blood sugars have come down, so the weight will come off. The blood pressure, I’ll be off of that medication. I have no doubt that I’ll be off of my diabetes medication and it’s all thanks to the Drs. Chaney and their facilities and I’m so happy”

‘Star Wars’ won’t have a CGI Fisher

HBO will air documentary on Baltimore after Gray

Dakota Fanning gets lead in TNT drama set in 1890s

Baltimore in the wake of the death of Freddie Gray will be the subject of an HBO documentary directed by “The Wire” alum Sonja Sohn, the cable channel announced at the TV critics press tour in Los Angeles. Titled “For the Love of Baltimore,” the film will debut this year, but no date is yet set, a press release said. According to HBO, the film “shows a distraught and damaged community on an everelusive search for both justice and the common humanity of people who have previously seen each other only as adversaries.”

Dakota Fanning has landed a lead role in TNT’s upcoming period drama “The Alienist,” a series based on Caleb Carr’s best-selling book, Deadline reported. She will star opposite Daniel Bruhl and Luke Evans. According to Deadline, the show is set in 1896 New York City, “a city of vast wealth, extreme poverty and technological innovation.” The series follows a criminal psychologist (Bruhl) and a reporter (Evans) out to find a serial killer. Fanning’s character works for police commissioner Theodore Roosevelt and is determined to become New York’s first female police detective. (EXPRESS)

Lucasfilm said Friday that it has “no plans to digitally recreate Carrie Fisher’s performance as Princess or General Leia Organa.” Fisher, who reprised her role in 2015’s “Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens,” had finished shooting “Star Wars: Episode VIII,” due out next December, when she died Dec. 27 at age 60. But LUCASFILM/DISNEY

Fisher had also been slated to appear in “Episode IX,” out in 2019. That film is still being scripted, and writers are deciding how to handle her death. “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,” released last month, included a brief appearance of a digitized 1977-era Fisher, as well as a large role for a digitized version of the late Peter Cushing, who died in 1994. Still, Lucasfilm said “Episode VIII” will be Fisher’s last. (AP)

“Anybody who hasn’t should d read MLK Jr’s ‘Letter from Birmingham ngham Jail’ & watch [Ava DuVernay’s] ay’s] documentary ‘13th’ on Netflix. tflix. Today isn’t just a break.” .”

A special commemorative print section produced by The Washington Post

@ISMASHFIZZLE shares concrete actions people can take to honor the legacy of Martin Luther King Jr., encouraging Americans to look beyond King’s “I Have a Dream” speech to his defense of civil disobedience obedience in his “Letter From Birmingham Jail.” “You can’t blindly love ove MLK’s peace [without] also loving his protest,” @TMitchellPorter er tweeted.

PALLADIA1 comments on washingtonpost.com about Steelers star wide receiver Antonio Brown, who posted a live-stream from the team’s locker room after the Steelers beat the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday night. Brown caught flak for his stream, which showed coach Mike Tomlin calling the team’s next opponent, the Patriots, “a--holes.”

“If anyone has a ‘get out of jail, free’ card, it would be Antonio Brown. He might be fined for this, but he’ll be just fine.”

K SEBASTIAN SHELTON, a commenter on huffingtonpost.com, reacts to a PSA from the #Don’tNormalizeHate project, which was produced by singer Katy Perry. It tells the story of Haru Kuromiya, an 89-yearold Japanese-American who was forced into an internment camp during WWII. In a surprising reveal, the video makes a comparison to the possibility of a Muslim registry being created in our society today.

is the key to success. Even if you don’t have perfect technique, doing what comes naturally will serve you well right now.

TODAY: Intermittent showers are likely, but it probably won’t be an all-day washout. Highs should extend into the mid-50s with light winds (5-10 mph) from the south. Periods of showers will continue into the night, especially before midnight. Temperatures later should be mild for January, with lows no colder than 40.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may not understand what is holding you back, but a friend seems to have at least one or two of the answers you need. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) A fresh start is possible, but is that really what you want? Take a look at what you’ve accomplished, and you’ll see what you must do next.

Someone is likely to ask questions that force you to face a situation that you’ve turned away from in the past. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You will want to know just who is calling the shots, and this will involve peering into corners that have gone unexplored in the past.

Kim K’s police statement details robbery

Tay to exclude self from this narrative Selena Gomez, who was photographed kissing The Weeknd last week, reportedly “isn’t buying” Bella Hadid’s “friendship heartbreak,” according to TMZ. (Hadid and The Weeknd broke up last year. Hadid and her sister Gigi also run in the same friend group as Gomez, aka Taylor Swift’s “squad.”) The two are not “that close,” TMZ reported; Gomez is “best friends” with Swift, while the Hadids are “merely distant acquaintances.”

French newspaper Le Journal du Dimanche published what’s believed to be a transcript of Kim Kardashian West’s statement to French police after r the October incident in which robbers stole more than han $10 million in jewelry from her in Paris. “I was weararing a bathrobe, naked underneath. Then we went in n the room again and they pushed me on the bed. And, d, at this time, they strapped me with plastic cables and nd tape on my hands, then they taped my mouth and my legs,” it reads. She added that when a robber asked about her $4 million ring, she initially told him she did not know where it was, but then gestured to it on her er bedside table after he pointed a gun at her.

Nicole Kidman said her comments that Americans should support President-elect Donald Trump were merely a statement of her belief in democracy, not an endorsement of the incoming president. “I was trying to stress that I believe in democracy and the American Constitution, and it was that simple,” the actress told Access Hollywood.
