SPARKS FLY: Torchwielding men rush to set a massive shrine ablaze as part of the Dosojin Fire Festival in Nozawa Onsen, Japan, on Monday. Every year, men of the “unlucky” ages of 25 and 42 stage the festival to celebrate the birth of a first child and bring good luck.

Police in Dresden, Germany, say two men suffered minor injuries after backing into one another in two consecutive accidents.

When the older man then got in his car and backed out, he hit the younger man, slightly injuring him. (AP)

LAUREL, MD. Don’t bother telling Joe Rockenbach your curling jokes. He’s heard them all. As president of his local curling club, Rockenbach has listened to people tell him that curling is not a real sport. Or about how curlers must be skilled house cleaners because their sport involves sweeping. Those comments used to irk Rockenbach, a 37-year-old Philadelphia native, but he’s seen the game humble enough people that now the slights slide right off. “Almost anybody who comes into it with the attitude of, ‘This is nothing, I got this,’ when they get off the ice, [they say], ‘This was way different than what I expected,’ ” Rockenbach said. Tucked away in a small corner rink at the Gardens Ice House in Laurel, Md., Rockenbach and others at the nonprofit Potomac Curling Club welcomed media members Monday morning for an information session in preparation for the expected spike in interest leading up to the

Potomac Curling Club hopes the Olympics bring the sport its due

The Potomac Curling Club is the only dedicated curling rink in the region.

Winter Olympics next month in PyeongChang. About a dozen media members were in attendance to get footage and also try their hand at the sport, which some refer to as “chess on ice” for the cerebral nature of the game. Curling remains largely a novelty in the United States and its athletes often feel the need to defend themselves against silly jokes or insults, but there are signs that the Olympic interest has had lasting positive effects. The Potomac Curling Club,

Would you like to lose weight and do you have high cholesterol?

How to play The goal of the game is to get more 40-pound granite stones close to the center (the “button”) of a circular target on the ice (the “house”) than the opposing team. Curling involves two teams made up of four players: the lead, the second, the third (or vice) and the skip. Teams alternate taking shots, during which a player is either sliding a stone (two stones per player), sweeping the ice in front of the stone or watching the action from the house. (TWP)

which is the only organization with a rink solely for curling in the Washington area, gained and retained about 60 new members during the last Olympic cycle, according to Rockenbach. And as the sport grows, the respect will come, club members hope. “It’s not there yet but it’s certainly improving,” Rockenbach said. “There’s more money in top level events, purses are getting bigger and we’re getting more competitive players out of the U.S. … I’m really interested to see what happens in next Olympic cycle or two.” Hunter Clawson, 21, who joined the Potomac Curling Club in 2008 and is ranked internationally, isn’t bothered by curling insults. But he wishes that the sport were on television more often. By having more curling on the air, he reasons, more people would be exposed to the sport and maybe even understand it. “We haven’t done enough to educate America about the sport,” Clawson said. “There’s a lot of interest in the sport and we just have to make that connection between the sport and the people interested in it.” KELYN SOONG (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Lavin defended the agency Tuesday when asked how tracks in the area where the derailment occurred could be defective, even after the year-long SafeTrack maintenance project. He said

Also, after the derailment, it took 90 minutes for authorities to begin evacuating. Lavin said the lag time between the derailment and evacuation was “to ensure that the evacuation was conducted in the safest possible manner.” But Metro board members were uneasy about the communication lapses and the 90-minute wait. “In this case, we’re fortunate that there wasn’t any serious injury which otherwise could have led to a very tragic situation,” board member Michael Goldman said.

local Report: 1 in 10 students who received diplomas missed most of year THE DISTRICT More than 1 in every 10 students receiving a diploma from a D.C. public high school last year missed most of the academic year, according to an report released Tuesday that casts a shadow on a district that has trumpeted improvements in graduation rates. The investigation, commissioned by the Office of the State Superintendent of Education,

The review saved some of its sharpest criticism for Ballou High School, which has been engulfed in controversy amid a graduation scandal.

Walter Reed medical center ceiling partially collapses

Hogan’s budget proposal to give Md. schools a boost

Chelsea Manning’s bid for U.S. Senate threatens to upend the 2018 Maryland Democratic primary. Political analysts say Manning’s high profile will prevent two-term Sen. Ben Cardin from essentially ignoring his primary challenger in the heavily Democratic state. Cardin said Tuesday in Baltimore that he looks forward to a strong campaign featuring Manning or anyone else. The transgender woman was known as Bradley Manning when she was convicted in 2013 of leaking a trove of classified documents. The former soldier was released from military prison in May after serving seven years of a 35-year sentence. (AP)

Part of a ceiling collapsed Monday at a building at the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda. No injuries were reported. The collapse appeared to have involved an overhang outside the entrance to the medical center’s emergency department, according to the Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service. A “partial collapse of a ceiling under construction” near the emergency entrance was reported by Pete Piringer, the spokesman for the county fire and rescue service. Piringer said the entrance remained open and was not affected. No further information has been released. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Gov. Larry Hogan is providing some highlights of his budget proposal. Hogan said Tuesday it will include about $6.5 billion for K-12 education, a record amount for the state. Hogan says every single school system in Maryland will see increased funding. The governor says the state is investing an additional $365 million more in school construction, bringing the total to $1.4 billion. The budget also contains $1.38 billion for the University of Maryland, an increase over last year. The Republican governor is meeting with leading Democrats today to talk about the budget for the next fiscal year. (AP)

President Trump has left a high number of political appointee positions open.

JOE DAVIDSON | THE WASHINGTON POST

Upside for staffers: Openings provide chance to disrupt With President Trump’s first presidential anniversary days away, hundreds of political positions still lack nominees. Perhaps some folks don’t want to work for a white supremacist, but that’s another column. The lack of appointees can cause myriad problems, but there also can be an upside for career staffers — like the opportunity for them to disrupt, which is not the same as resist. In fact, Trump campaigned and has governed with disruption of the established order as a primary goal. A new survey on “Navigating Disruption” sought to determine if government leaders “are being inducted into a new phase of government service, with disruption as its

key operating principle.” Think of disruption as bold action upsetting the status quo. That can be good or bad. The survey, conducted by the Association of Government Accountants (AGA) and the Grant Thornton accounting firm, focused on federal chief financial officers (CFOs), but the findings are relevant to other career government leaders as well. Although the report says “disruption may be an uncomfortable notion to some,” feds, and the public, better get used to it if they aren’t already. “The tenor surrounding the current administration’s approach suggests financial managers could see significantly more disruption in the future than ever before in [the] recent past,” the report says. In the hands of effective civil

service managers, disruption when political appointees aren’t in place can be a good thing. Some of those surveyed said with “the slow pace of onboarding political appointees, career staff should take full advantage of the current disruptive environment to effect change.” Their comments included: “this is a very unique opportunity for career staff to participate in a revolution of sorts” and “there are not enough politicians in place to solve the big problems; so, let’s see the career folks take bold action.” The opportunity is available because Trump is a laggard. As of Friday, about 40 percent of key, Senate-confirmed appointments had no nominees, according to the Partnership for Public Service, which runs an appointment tracker along with The Washington Post. “The high number of leadership vacancies will have negative implications for the administration’s ability to govern effectively and implement management reforms,” said Max Stier, the partnership’s president and CEO. Supporting that notion, the report says some “career civil servants simply are not going to attempt bold reorganizations on their own for fear of reprisals.” Chronic budget uncertainty and workforce management issues, not necessarily related to appointees, remain major problems for agency managers, with the report citing “government workforce policies and practices mired in the past.” They also are not optimistic about the ability of Trump’s team to achieve success. “When asked whether the administration’s push for change will have a significant impact on streamlining government, an overwhelming majority were skeptical,” according to the report. “Only 16 percent felt positive change was ahead.” Follow Joe Davidson on Twitter @joedavidsonWP

Birdlike dino rocked bright, rainbow mane

Pope Francis greets a child on Tuesday in Santiago, Chile, as protests against the Church raged around the country.

Pope Francis visits Chile amid fierce opposition Church under fire over sex abuse scandal in South American nation SANTIAGO, CHILE Pope Francis dove into the sex abuse scandal that has devastated the Catholic Church’s credibility in Chile, apologizing Tuesday for the “irreparable damage” to victims, but also acknowledging the “pain” of priests who have been held collectively responsible for the crimes of a few. Francis’ words were delivered amid unprecedented opposition to his visit: Three more churches were torched overnight, including one burned to the ground in the southern Araucania region where Francis is to celebrate Mass today. Police used tear

gas and water cannons to break up an anti-pope protest outside Francis’ big open-air Mass in the capital, Santiago. Despite the incidents, huge numbers of Chileans turned out to see the pope on his first full day in Chile, including an estimated 400,000 for his Mass, and he brought some inmates to tears with an emotional visit to a women’s prison. But his comments in his first speech of the day were what many Chileans were waiting to hear: Speaking from the presidential La Moneda palace, Francis told Chilean President Michelle Bachelet, lawmakers, judges and other authorities that he felt “bound to express my pain and shame” that some of Chile’s clergy had sexually

abused children in their care. “I am one with my brother bishops, for it is right to ask forgiveness and make every effort to support the victims, even as we commit ourselves to ensuring that such things do not happen again,” the pope said. Francis did not refer by name to Chile’s most notorious pedophile priest, the Rev. Fernando Karadima, who in 2011 was barred from all pastoral duties and sanctioned by the Vatican to a lifetime of “penance and prayer” for sexually molesting minors. Nor did he refer to the fact that the emeritus archbishop of Santiago, a top papal adviser, has acknowledged he knew of complaints against Karadima but didn’t remove him from ministry.

Scientists on Monday announced the discovery of a new birdlike dinosaur that lived 161 million years ago in what is now China. What’s unique about this species is that it had an iridescent, rainbow-colored ring of feathers around its neck, similar to the colors on a hummingbird, Reuters reports. Researchers analyzed fossils of the dinosaur, which they named Caihong juji — Mandarin for “rainbow with a big crest” — and found that the rest of the duck-sized carnivore had dark feathers. They concluded the colorful feathers were likely used to attract mates, according to the study, published in the journal Nature Communications. (EXPRESS)

WASHINGTONPOST.COM MORNING MIX

Police: Parents’ treatment of 13 was ‘torture’ Before dawn Sunday, a 17-yearold girl escaped a house in Perris, Calif., slipping through a window and dialing 911 on a deactivated cellphone, Capt. Greg Fellows of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said at a news conference Tuesday. Deputies met the girl nearby and conducted a welfare check at the home, where they found her 12 siblings, ages 2 to 29, in what authorities called “horrific” conditions, some shackled to furniture with padlocks. Fellows said he could not provide details about the scene, but told reporters, “If you can imagine being 17 years old and appearing to be a 10-year-old, being chained to a bed, being malnourished and the injuries associated with that — I would call that torture.” He said there was no evidence to indicate sexual abuse but noted that police are still investigating. The biological parents, David Allen Turpin, 57, and Louise Anna Turpin, 49, have been arrested on charges of torture and child endangerment, authorities said. The Riverside County Sheriff’s Department said in a news release Monday that the 13 siblings all appeared to be children, so deputies were “shocked” to discover that seven of them are adults. They appeared malnourished and dirty and told authorities that they were starving. SAMANTHA SCHMIDT AND LINDSEY BEVER

COURTS The Justice Department on Tuesday said it would take the “rare step” of asking the Supreme Court to overturn a judge’s ruling and clear the way for the Trump administration to dismantle a program that provides work permits to undocumented immigrants who have lived in the United States since childhood. The Trump administration said it has appealed the judge’s injunction — which said the Obama-era program must continue while a legal challenge to ending it is pending — to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit. But the Justice Department will also petition the Supreme Court later this week to intervene

Trump administration to ask Supreme Court to overturn program

Demonstrators protest Tuesday at the Capitol Hill office of Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev., in support of DACA.

in the case, an unusual action that would allow the government to bypass the 9th Circuit altogether in its bid to phase out the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program in March. “It defies both law and common sense” that a “single district court in San Francisco” had halted the administration’s plans, Attorney

General Jeff Sessions said. “We are now taking the rare step of requesting direct review on the merits of this injunction by the Supreme Court so that this issue may be resolved quickly and fairly for all the parties involved.” The fate of DACA recipients, also known as “Dreamers,” is at the heart of a legislative dispute on Capitol Hill that could result in a government shutdown later this week. President Trump says President Barack Obama exceeded his authority by creating the DACA program, and Congress must pass legislation protecting Dreamers if they are to be allowed to stay. The White House and lawmakers in Congress are at odds over whether protections for Dreamers should be accompanied by crackdowns on other types of immigration. MARIA SACCHETTI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Doc: Trump healthy, passed cognitive test White House doctor recommends president lose 10 to 15 pounds HEALTH President Trump requested that his first formal medical exam include a cognitive test and “did exceedingly well,” receiving a score of 30 out of 30, the top White House doctor announced on Tuesday afternoon. Navy Rear Adm. Ronny L. Jackson, the lead White House doctor since 2013, said that he has interacted with the president several times a day for the past year and saw no need for a cognitive test, calling him “sharp.” At the president’s request, Jackson said that he reviewed a number of cognitive tests and then administered the Montreal Cognitive Assessment during Trump’s first presidential physical exam on Friday at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. The 10-minute exam is designed to detect mild cognitive impairment, generally in older patients. Trump answered all 30 questions correctly, Jackson said. The test includes asking a patient to name several animals, draw a clock with the hands at a certain time, copy a cube and recall a short list of words, among

others. Jackson said there was “no indication whatsoever that he has any cognitive issues.” Jackson said that based on Trump’s lab results and cardiac tests, he is “very healthy” and he expects the president to continue to be healthy for the rest of his term and even in a second term. Undergoing this physical is voluntary, and Trump can choose what the public hears about his health. Jackson said there is “absolutely nothing” that is being withheld and that Trump’s release of information is “hands down” the broadest in history. Trump, 71, is 6-foot-3 and his weight is 239 pounds, which is

considered overweight and just short of obese, Jackson said. He said he recommended that the president eat a healthier diet, exercise regularly and lose 10 to 15 pounds. The president weighs 3 pounds more than he did in September 2016, the last time he revealed his weight. Jackson said Trump’s cholesterol of 223 is elevated and his low-density lipoprotein of 143 is borderline high. Jackson said he hopes to bring down the LDL (or “bad cholesterol”) score with diet, exercise and statin medication that he is increasing for Trump.

Big Brother on wheels Why your car company may know more about your behaviors and habits than your spouse TRANSPORTATION Daniel Dunn was about to sign a lease for a Honda Fit last year when a detail buried in the lengthy agreement caught his eye. Honda wanted to track the location of his vehicle, the contract stated, according to Dunn — a stipulation that struck the 69-year-old Temecula, Calif., retiree as a bit odd. But despite initial hesitation, he signed it. “I don’t care if they know where I go,” Dunn said. “They’re probably thinking, ‘What a boring life this guy’s got.’ ” Dunn may consider his driving habits mundane, but auto and privacy experts suspect that big automakers like Honda see them as anything but. By monitoring his everyday movements, an automaker can vacuum up a massive amount of personal information about someone like Dunn, everything from how fast he drives to the entertainment he prefers. Though drivers may not realize it, tens of millions of American cars are being monitored like Dunn’s, experts say, and the number increases with nearly every new vehicle that is leased or sold. The result is that carmakers have turned on a powerful spigot of precious personal data, often without owners’ knowledge, transforming the automobile from a machine that helps us travel to a sophisticated computer on wheels that offers access to our personal habits and behaviors. “The thing that car manufacturers realize now is that they’re not only hardware companies anymore — they’re software companies,” said Lisa Joy Rosner, chief marketing officer of Otonomo, a company that sells

Warning issued over dangerous ‘Tide pod’ game

about someone’s health. The law has been unable to keep up with rapid advancements in auto technology, according to Ryan Calo, an associate professor of law at the University of Washington. “Not only are automakers collecting a lot of data, they don’t have a particular regime that is regulating how they do it,” he said. Though the possibility of abuse exists, Calo and other experts say automakers have so far been “responsive” to concerns about data collection and privacy. And yet, Calo said, the more data a company collects, the more incentive the company has to monetize that data. “Any company that has tons of data … is going to have the capability and incentive to try to use that information to the company’s advantage — and possibly to the detriment of consumers,” Calo said. “It’s almost unavoidable.”

First, it was the “gallon challenge” and the “cinnamon challenge.” Then the “bath-salt challenge.” Now videos circulating on social media are showing kids biting into brightly colored liquid laundry detergent packets. Or cooking them, then chewing them up before spewing the soap from their mouths. Experts say the so-called “Tide pod challenge” is dangerous. “You’re really taking a chance — and to what end?” said Alfred Aleguas, of the Florida Poison Information Center in Tampa. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission issued a warning to parents years ago about the liquid laundry detergent packets. It said the capsules are attractive to young children but can cause harm. Last year, U.S. poison control centers received reports of more than 10,500 children younger than 5 who were exposed to the capsules. The same year, nearly 220 teens were reportedly exposed, and about 25 percent of those cases were intentional. So far in 2018, there have been 37 reported cases among teenagers — half of them intentional, according to data. Tide’s parent company, Procter & Gamble, said it is “deeply concerned” about improper use of the pods and released a public service announcement discouraging people from playing with them.

connected-car data, sharing the profits with automakers. Automakers say they collect customer data only with explicit permission, though that permission is often buried in lengthy service agreements. They argue that data is used to improve performance and enhance vehicle safety. The information that is gathered, they add, will soon be able to reduce traffic accidents and fatalities, saving tens of thousands of lives. Some privacy experts believe that with enough data points about driver behavior, profiles as unique as fingerprints could be developed. But it’s location data, experts say, that already has the greatest potential to put customers at risk. “Most people don’t realize how deeply ingrained their habits are and how where we park our car on a regular basis can tell someone many things about us,” said Pam Dixon, executive director of the World Privacy

Death of Serbian leader raises Balkan tensions

4 police officers shot on domestic violence call

The U.S. is withholding $65 million of a $125 million funding installment to the U.N. Relief and Works Agency. (AP)

Japan’s public broadcaster mistakenly sent an alert Tuesday warning citizens of a North Korean missile launch and urging them to seek immediate shelter, then corrected it minutes later. The error came days after a similar one was made in Hawaii. NHK television said the mistake was the result of an error by a staff member who was operating the alert system. (AP)

Serb politician Oliver Ivanovic, 64, was shot to death Tuesday near his political party’s offices in northern Kosovo by unknown assailants. Ivanovic was a key politician in Serb-dominated northern Kosovo, a former Serbian province. The attack raised ethnic tensions in the Balkans and prompted the suspension of EU-mediated talks between Kosovo and Serbia. (AP)

Center Natalie Butler has transformed her game as a graduate transfer for George Mason.

INTERNAL CRITICISM

PETE MAROVICH (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

Wall, Brooks put Porter on the spot

DAN STEINBERG | THE WASHINGTON POST

Well-traveled star: Ex-UConn reserve shines for Mason The drive to George Mason from Natalie Butler’s home takes 15 minutes, making the school’s basketball facilities as familiar as the living room couch. Butler’s dad has a membership to the recreation center, so she and her younger brother visited the gym together often to run drills and practice post-up moves. The three Butlers — dad, daughter and son, all basketball stars — played pickup games together. Now, Butler is back on campus leading the women’s team. But first, her career GPS introduced a few detours. First there was a season at Georgetown, where the 6-foot-5 center became an unexpected collegiate force and

the Big East freshman of the year. Then came three years with the sport’s most famous program: Butler played in two Final Fours with Connecticut, won a national title and got a degree in communications. Finally, the route wound back to Fairfax. Butler arrived at Mason as a graduate transfer, obtaining an NCAA waiver that allowed her to play right away in her final season of eligibility. She became a team captain before her first game, and then started dominating. After recording 13 points and nine rebounds in a season-opening loss to Michigan, Butler has turned in 17 straight doubledoubles, tied for the most in the country. She’s averaging nearly two more rebounds than any other player in Division I basketball, male or female.

“I never thought that this year would be going the way it is right now, honestly,” said Butler, a former All-Met from Lake Braddock High. “I’m just very thankful, because I know it could be going the other way.” That’s because neither of her previous stops went as planned. Butler got to Georgetown when coach Keith Brown was placed on leave amid complaints about inappropriate conduct and abusive language, playing her freshman season for interim coach Jim Lewis. She averaged 13.9 points and 13.4 rebounds a game, finishing fifth in Division I in rebounding and starting every game. After a new coach was hired, Butler decided to leave, choosing Connecticut over Virginia. Then she had to sit

out her transfer year at UConn, something she called “tougher than I had ever imagined.” During an early practice the next season, she tore a ligament in her thumb, requiring surgery that kept her out for more than two months. By the time she came back, the rotation was set. She averaged 5.6 points and 4.0 rebounds that season. After another year in a similar role, Butler was ready for grad school. The graduatetransfer option was her last out, and she pursued it. On top of all the personal history, Mason had a program in global affairs that matched her interests. The coaching staff is stilll reprogramming Butler to play eam like the focal point of the team he rather than a reserve, but the ble. results have been remarkable. ame, In her first Atlantic-10 game, ool she broke a 40-year-old school he record with 28 rebounds.

Butler memight not have become a gamechanger for UConn, but she was on. that instantly at George Mason.

In Washington’s 104-95 loss to the Bucks on Monday, John Wall and Bradley Beal took more than half of the team’s shot attempts. Running mate Otto Porter Jr. took just eight, one fewer than backup Kelly Oubre Jr. After the game, Wall said that the Wizards have to do a better job of finding Porter, but, “he also has to do a better job of just being aggressive himself when he gets it.” Ahead of tonight’s game at Charlotte (7, NBCSWA), Porter has scored in double figures in just two of six games he’s played this month. “Otto has to help himself more,” coach Scott Brooks said. “… [He] needs to get himself open and be ready to catch and shoot.” (TWP)

Robby Kelley declined an invite from the U.S. Ski Team to form his own club .

Independent racer hopes to ski for U.S. PyeongChang Games is expected to be announced by Jan. 25. A maximum of four spots are available in Kelley’s discipline, men’s slalom, and he has an outside shot at one of the openings. Six-time Olympic medalist Bode Miller helped spark the independent trend in 2007 when he broke from the USST and formed “Team America.” Other racers have followed suit, almost always after failing to make the U.S. team, or losing their spot. Kelley, 27, is one of the few skiers to decline a nomination to go it alone. Kelley found the USST’s training plan restrictive, and he thought he could spend less money on his own. He estimates his total costs at less than $15,000. Even that, he says, is more than offset by the increase in fundraising, sponsorship and stipends. TIK ROOT (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

During his year off the team, however, he had helped form a group of his own — Redneck Racing — and he wanted to stay independent. Kelley declined the U.S. Ski Team (USST) nomination and continues to compete independently. He became a regular on the World Cup circuit and qualified for the World Championships. Now he has his sights set on the Olympics. The United States sends its fastest skiers to the games, whether they’re part of the USST or not. The team that will compete next month in the

Earnhardt to work for NBC at Super Bowl, Olympics

League will investigate Rockets-Clippers incident

Drew Brees said Tuesday that he still expects to remain with New Orleans as long as the team will have him. The quarterback says he knows he’d have leverage to shop around if the Saints don’t reach an extension with him before the new league year starts in March. However, Brees, 39, said he doesn’t plan on that. Brees’ deal is structured so that the Saints, who went 11-5 to win the NFC South, lose $18 million in salary cap space if they fail to reach an extension with Brees. He said he sees potential for New Orleans to build on a season that would’ve continued to the NFC title game if not for a last-second Minnesota touchdown Sunday. (AP)

NBC Sports announced Tuesday it will use Dale Earnhardt Jr. in its pregame show for the Super Bowl, then send him to South Korea for coverage of next month’s Winter Olympics. Earnhardt, 42, retired from NASCAR in November and signed on to be an analyst for NBC, which plans to use him at the Super Bowl in outdoor events and activities in Minneapolis in the days before the game. At the Olympics, he’ll visit the speed skating venue and accept a recent invite to ride in a bobsled with the U.S. team. “I think he will have something unique to offer about the need for speed on snow and ice,” NBC executive Jim Bell said.

The NBA plans to speak with players from the Rockets and Clippers to determine the specifics of lategame and postgame events after tempers boiled over Monday night after the Clippers’ 113-102 win. ESPN reported that several Rockets players headed toward the Clippers’ locker room seeking a confrontation but were escorted away by security before anything got physical.

VIDEO STREAM

She’s doing just fine on her own MUSIC REVIEW Camila Cabello originally planned to call her solo debut “The Hurting, The Healing, The Loving.” It was going to be about her struggle since leaving girl group Fifth Harmony and be built around the wrenching single “I Have Questions.” (Main question: “Why don’t you care?”) Funny thing, though. As she worked on the album last year, buoyed by the success of her collaborations — “Bad Things” with Machine Gun Kelly and then “Havana” with Young Thug — the questions didn’t seem important anymore. Camila Cabello now had answers. And on her debut, “Camila,” she delivers them with the confidence and power of an artist with far more than Cabello’s 20 years under he her belt.

The sultry “ Hava na ,” wh ich pays tribute to Cabello’s Cuban heritage and ‘Camila’ has now topped Camila Cabello the pop charts for seven weeks, provides a solid foundation for the rest of “Camila” and its ambitions to establish her as a pop star as bankable as Selena Gomez or Demi Lovato. Cabello is at her peak on the new single “Never Be the Same,” which shows off what sets her apart from the pop pack. The way her breathless voice breaks at the top of her register when she confesses, “Just like nicotine, heroin, morphine, suddenly I’m a fiend and you’re all I need” is the mark of an artist. That she can quickly switch to her full voice for the desperate chorus is the mark of a star. “Camila” also has plenty more hits to roll out. “She Loves Control” combines a Latin-tinged

‘End Game’

Fine-tuning Camila Cabello, who was born in Havana, hoped to find her own unique sound by drawing inspiration from contemporary reggaeton, mainstream pop and the Latin music of her childhood. “I feel like the best way to come up with something new and different is just to be the you-est you possible,” Cabello told The New York Times. “If you pull from all the different little parts of yourself, nobody can replicate that.” (EXPRESS)

reggaeton groove and an irresistible chorus. The delightful “Into It” steps right into the sweet spot between Carly Rae Jepsen’s retro indie-pop and Sia’s unexpected phrasing, something that livens up the gorgeous ballad “Something’s Gotta Give.” With “ C a mi la ,” C abel lo proves that she is a forced to be reckoned with and ready to be one of 2018’s breakout stars.

‘Get It Right’ Diplo feat. MØ

There’s something so pure about artists using their music videos to just dance to their own songs, freely and unabashedly. DJ/producer Diplo and singer MØ do just that in the video for their piano-filled collab “Get It Right” — the camera pans on them alone in a ballroom, jumping around and kicking their feet. It looks most like choreographed flailing, but hey, they’re killin’ it. B.C.

Hood College invites applications for the following positions:

Edgar Ramirez is a moody Gianni Versace in the new “American Crime Story.”

‘Versace’ struggles to find its footing The latest ‘American Crime Story’ falls short of 2016’s ‘People v. O.J.’ TV REVIEW The twisted, true story of Andrew Cunanan’s 1997 killing of the Italian fashion designer Gianni Versace exists in whatever dark sliver of cultural space remains between lurid and sordid. It dangles just out of satisfying reach, even with all the attention being lavished upon it by Ryan Murphy and company in FX’s watchable yet incrementally disappointing “The Assassination of Gianni Versace: American Crime Story.” A stylish but depressing nineepisode tragedy (premiering today at 10 p.m.), the series heralds, of course, the much-awaited return of the true-crime anthology that launched two years ago with a marvelously textured retelling of O.J. Simpson’s murder trial. This time the series takes a big swerve into a dead-end story. The brilliance of “The People v. O.J. Simpson” was how it made a famous and well-raked case seem entirely new. The failure of “Versace” is that it takes a case that is at best vaguely remembered and tries to apply to it the same degree of resonance and insight.

It’s far from a total bust, however. As with “People v. O.J.,” the series has that intoxicating mix of reported fact (drawing on Vanity Fair journalist Maureen Orth’s 1999 book “Vulgar Favors” for details) and a dash of invention that now defines the “American Crime Story” style. “Glee” star Darren Criss is also plenty creepy and believable as Cunanan, a 27-year-old charlatan and chronic fibber who mooches off the kindness of strangers. Criss capably holds the series together when the writing and dialogue can’t, particularly in how he portrays the smarmy banality of Cunanan’s evil. And as Versace, Edgar Ramirez brings a dour elegance to the designer’s creativity and moods. But ultimately, the themes that so easily presented themselves for fresh scrutiny in “People v. O.J.” (systemic racism and sexism, media manipulation, elusive justice) are just a clumsy tangle in “Versace” (no thanks to a confusing chronology that stutters, skips and moves mainly backward). Is this a show about beauty? Is it about psychosis? Is it about gay rights? Yes to all those things, but never effectively. HANK STUEVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

“People who argue with us on twitter often forget that there’s a real sentient box of frozen beef sheets behind the keyboard and not just some lifeless human.” @STEAK_UMM, a tweet from the quirky Twitter feed of Steak-umm — a company selling frozen, sliced cheesesteak meat — after the account on Monday achieved its goal of becoming Twitterverified. The offbeat tweets continued.

“While partisanship makes it tempting to beat up on Orrin Hatch for removing imaginary glasses, I do stuff like this all the time.” @ZACHARYLIPTON, empathizing with Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah,

who was spotted in Congress on Tuesday removing imaginary glasses from his head and placing them on a table. When people made fun on Twitter, Hatch got in on the joke, tweeting a photoshopped image of “invisible” Warby Parker frames.

“Let me guess, you’ll just need my bank account number so you can deposit the money, right?” @MECARLBERG, replying to a post from

a Twitter account claiming to be the 20-year-old $451 million lottery winner Shane Missler, above. A fake account with the name @misler_shane went viral for tweeting that the first 50,000 followers to share the post would be given $5,000. Missler isn’t actually giving random people money via Twitter.

“When you make jokes about a deceased person and go around the country making fun of a foreign culture for views and money you should totally deserve a second chance. What’s next?” @POACHERMINDSET, reacting sarcastically to a TMZ video interview with disgraced YouTuber Logan Paul, in which Paul said, “Everyone deserves second chances, bro.”

Temperatures slowly rise to about 30 by the afternoon as clouds slowly start to clear. A few clouds possible, but otherwise it’s a colder night, with lows ranging through the teens.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You have a secret that you’re trying desperately to keep while all around you others are sharing their deepest and darkest. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You must resist the temptation to go poking about in someone else’s business today. You’re sure to be caught. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) What you do without permission may prove to be quite hazardous to you down the line. You’ll want everything to be on the up and up today.
