Police say a Morganton, N.C., man who was caught driving drunk complained that an officer wouldn’t share a bottle of liquor. Officers saw Kyle Ryan Elliott driving away from a sports bar early Saturday with his girlfriend as she vomited out of his truck. Police say Elliott failed breath tests and was put in a patrol car, where he saw a bottle of Fireball whisky confiscated from someone else and allegedly said: “You could have shared; I’m already drunk.” (AP)
A sled dog named Dillon who lives at a lodge in Alaska broke free early Monday as Iditarod racers passed and ran 30 miles with them, the Anchorage Daily News reported. Dillon is part of a recreational team that takes guests on sled tours.

Dupont Circle gay bar Cobalt has closed
The District is home to about 3,800 cherry blossom trees, many of which are found around the Tidal Basin.
The countdown begins National Park Service predicts April 3-6 peak for the cherry blossoms THE DISTRICT The blooms are back in Washington, and this year they should be right on time. The District’s famous cherry blossoms are expected to be at peak bloom from April 3 through 6, the National Park Service said at a press conference Wednesday, marking the unofficial kickoff of cherry blossom fever. This year’s National Cherry Blossom Festival will run from March 20 to April 14. It will include old favorites — the parade, kite festival and fireworks show
— as well as new additions, including a cherry blossom-themed night with D.C. United and a Sailor Moon musical from Japan at the Warner Theatre. Festival events will take place in all eight of the District’s wards. Gregory O’Dell, chief executive of Events DC, the District’s convention and sports authority, said 1.5 million people are expected to visit the city during the festival’s four-week run, pouring about $100 million into the economy. The National Cherry Blossom Festival, considered the world’s largest U.S.-Japanese celebration, celebrates the 1912 gift of 3,000 cherry trees to the District from Tokyo.
“The trees have brought our two countries closer together as a lasting symbol of Japan-U.S. friendship,” said Takehiro Shimada, minister of communications and cultural affairs for the Embassy of Japan. Today, the District is home to about 3,800 trees, officials said. Peak bloom occurs when 70 percent of the blossoms along the Tidal Basin are open. Last year, this happened on April 5. The two years prior, peak bloom was on March 25, according to park service records. The park service said the blossoms had reached the first stage in their bloom cycle as green buds had emerged.

Unviable eggs become food for raccoon The bald eagle nest belonging to Liberty and Justice in Southwest D.C. was invaded Tuesday night by an apparently uninvited guest — a raccoon. According to the log kept by the Earth Conservation Corps, the raccoon entered the nest, cracked both of Liberty’s eggs and proceeded to eat them. Eagle experts had already pronounced the eggs unviable, so the raccoon did not eat any eaglets that would have survived. It was not clear where either Liberty or Justice was during the raccoon incident. (TWP)

Md. to vote on end-of-life bill Legislature could allow lethal dose of drugs for terminal patients

Judge dismisses lawsuit against Md. Purple Line
PATRICK SEMANSKY (AP)
MARYLAND A bill that would allow terminally ill patients to legally obtain a lethal dose of medicine to end their lives advanced in the Maryland House of Delegates on Wednesday, setting the stage for what will likely be a dramatic vote today. It is the first time — after three attempts in recent years — that the legislation will be debated on the floor of either chamber of the Maryland General Assembly. The bill moved forward without any debate or discussion, even though there is both strong support and strong opposition in the House to making Maryland the seventh state to allow patients to get assistance in ending their own lives. Minority Leader Nicholaus Kipke, R-Anne Arundel, one of the lead critics of the bill, said he would share his concerns when the legislation is taken up today. Maryland is one of dozens of states where advocates have pushed in recent years to enact right-to-die legislation. Momentum began building after the highly publicized 2014 death of Brittany Maynard, a 29-year-old California woman with terminal brain cancer who moved to Oregon to legally end her life. Since then, six states, including California, Vermont and Washington, as well as the District, have enacted such measures.
The Maryland House is set to vote today on allowing terminal patients to obtain lethal medication to end their lives.
Del. Shane Pendergrass, DHoward, introduced the bill in Maryland for three years, from 2015 to 2017. Each time, it died in committee. The strongest opposition to the legislation has come from Catholic organizations. Maryland, which has deep Catholic roots, would be the southernmost state to adopt a right-to-die law. Public support for such measures has grown in the state in recent years, according to polls. Kipke said he plans to offer a “serious argument” against the bill. If the House votes to approve the bill, it would move to the Senate. If it passes there, it would go to Gov. Larry Hogan, R, who could choose to sign it, veto it or
“I’m feeling very, very optimistic. But until we see the votes, I don’t say that I’m confident.” DEL. SHANE PENDERGRASS, the lead sponsor on a Maryland bill that would allow terminally ill patients to legally obtain a lethal dose of medicine to end their lives
allow it to become law without his signature. “We’re going to offer arguments as to why this isn’t the right policy for Maryland,” Kipke said. “All Marylanders want a compassionate and
dignified end of life, and we have those options today in our state and if people don’t have access to that, that’s what we need to work on.” Retired radio talk show host Diane Rehm testified last month in favor of the measure, describing the misery her husband suffered during his final days. The House advanced the bill on the first day Del. Mary Ann Lisanti, D-Harford, appeared to the House chamber since her colleagues voted to censure her last Thursday. Lisanti, who used a racial slur to describe a majority-black legislative district in Prince George’s County, missed the legislative sessions on Friday, Monday and Tuesday.

The party announced the offer Tuesday, one day after Herring said in a radio interview that he is not sure if any photos were taken when he dressed in blackface for a college party in 1980. The offer of a reward comes during a state election year in which Virginia Republicans have made it clear they plan to highlight recent scandals that have embroiled Herring and the state’s other top Democrats, Gov. Ralph Northam and Lt. Gov. Justin Fairfax. (TWP)

A federal judge dismissed a second lawsuit Tuesday brought by opponents of the Purple Line, saying they hadn’t proven an “injury” under the law that they argued federal officials had violated in awarding $900 million in federal construction aid to the Maryland light-rail project. U.S. District Court Judge Richard J. Leon also ruled the plaintiffs were too late in filing a claim related to the project’s potential impact on historical sites. Leon rejected the opponents’ argument that they would suffer “injury” as Metro riders because the Purple Line would take money and resources away from the region’s aging subway system. Leon agreed with government lawyers that the $900 million awarded by the Federal Transit Administration had not been diverted from Metro’s rehabilitation. The 2017 lawsuit received far less public attention than the opponents’ first lawsuit, filed in 2014 on environmental grounds. The initial lawsuit delayed the Purple Line’s construction start date for almost a year before an appeals court rejected it. A third lawsuit, filed in January, is pending. In that lawsuit, the opponents argue that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers improperly allowed Purple Line construction work that will harm streams and wetlands. KATHERINE SHAVER

A group of 23 party officials
— or a quarter of the D.C. Democratic State Committee — signed an open letter that urged Evans to step down as a national committeeman. “We are concerned that the clouds growing over your alleged activities complicate efforts to win D.C.

Critics pan Arlington on Amazon incentives ARLINGTON COUNTY In exchange for giving Amazon about $23 million in incentives, activists wanted Arlington County to require the retail giant to pay union-level construction wages, donate to affordable housing funds or end its partnership with federal immigration authorities. But when the proposed incentive agreement was released Tuesday, it primarily said Amazon must fill a certain amount of office space in its Crystal City headquarters to receive the staggered payouts over the next 15 years. “What does Amazon have to do to get $23 million from Arlington? Just show up!” said a tweet by the anti-Amazon account @hqpoo. Arlington County Board Chair Christian Dorsey, D, said the county can still put pressure on Amazon to provide benefits to working-class and poor residents and never intended to include

those “asks” in the narrowly written agreement, which the County Board will discuss and put to a vote on March 16. Although Virginia limits what local governments can require of businesses and developers, Dorsey said a voluntary written memo could address advocates’
concerns. “Conversations about things we think are appropriate . . . will be ongoing,” he said. (Amazon founder and chief executive Jeff Bezos owns The Washington Post and Express.) But Roshan Abraham, one of the organizers of the “For Us, Not Amazon” coalition, said the incentives agreement should have been “one of our biggest points of leverage.” “There is nothing that they have to do,” he said. “It’s a direct subsidy for them to move in.” Virginia advocates for the poor and working class are hoping to pressure Arlington to extract concessions from Amazon as part of the negotiations. Officials say the next opportunity could be when the company requests zoning and other permissions for the campus it plans to build. PATRICIA SULLIVAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

FDA approves new treatment for depression Nasay spray, a cousin of club drug Special K, used for severe cases HEALTH A mind-altering medication related to the club drug Special K won U.S. approval Tuesday for patients with hard-to-treat depression, the first in a series of long-overlooked substances being reconsidered for treating severe forms of mental illness. The nasal spray from Johnson & Johnson is a chemical cousin of ketamine, which has been used for decades as a powerful anesthetic to prepare patients for surgery. In the 1990s, the medication was adopted as a party drug by the underground rave culture due to its ability to produce psychedelic, out-of-body experiences. More recently, some doctors have given ketamine to people with depression without formal FDA approval. The Food and Drug Administration approved Spravato as a fast-acting treatment for patients who have failed to find relief with at least two antidepressants. Up to 7.4 million American adults suffer from so-called treatment-resistant depression, which heightens the risk of suicide, hospitalization and other serious harm, according to the FDA.
The drug will cost between $590 and $885 depending on the dosage and before various insurance discounts and rebates. There have been no major pharmaceutical innovations for depression since the launch of Prozac and related antidepressants in the late 1980s. Those drugs target the feel-good brain chemical serotonin, and can take weeks or months to kick in. Ketamine and J&J’s version work differently than those drugs, targeting a chemical called glutamate that is thought to restore brain connections that help relieve depression. When the drug works, its effect is almost immediate. That speed “is a huge thing because depressed patients are very disabled and suffer enormously,” said Dr. John Mann, a psychiatrist and researcher at Columbia University. If the drug doesn’t work, physicians can quickly switch to other options, he noted. The FDA approved Spravato based on results that showed patients taking the drug experienced a bigger improvement in their depression levels than patients taking a placebo, when measured with a psychiatric questionnaire. The drug is designed to be lower-dose and easier to use than ketamine, which is normally given as an intravenous infusion.
3D-PRINTED MEALS
Puréed foods get appetizing transformation
Spravato is a fast-acting treatment approved for patients who have failed to find relief with at least two antidepressants.
Robin Prothro, 60, began taking antidepressants more than 20 years ago. But she says none of the five medications she tried relieved the depression. Since she enrolled in a Spravato trial two years ago, Prothro says, her depression has lifted and she’s returned to hobbies she abandoned years ago, like gardening. She takes the drug every two weeks at her psychiatrist’s office. “You can feel it coming on; it’s a strong drug,” she said, describing colors and shapes that drift before her eyes. “I just let the drug work. I close my eyes and my mind is amazingly quiet.”
Municipalities in Sweden have a novel plan for making puréed meals appetizing to elderly care-home residents: 3D-printing the food so that it looks like a normal meal, The Telegraph reported Tuesday. A meal like chicken and broccoli — which would currently be served in plain slabs of thickened mush — would be reshaped to look like the original foods, while retaining the same easy-to-swallow consistency. The hope is to remedy the widespread issue of care patients becoming malnourished due to low appetites and difficulty swallowing. The first trial meals will be rolled out by the end of the year.

Calif. AG: 2 Sacramento police officers who killed Stephon Clark won’t be charged
U.S. hits record trade deficit in goods at $891B ECONOMY The Commerce Department said Wednesday that — despite more than two years of President Trump’s “America First” policies — the U.S. last year posted a $891.2 billion merchandise trade deficit, the largest in the nation’s 243-year history. The trade gap with China also hit a record $419 billion, underscoring the stakes for the president’s bid to reach a deal with Chinese President Xi Jinping as soon as this month. The department’s final 2018 trade report, which was delayed by the partial government shutdown, showed that the U.S. bought far more in foreign goods than it sold to customers in Africa, Asia, Europe and North America. The shortfall topped the 2006 record of $838.3 billion, set as the housing bubble was peaking, and marked the third consecutive year of rising deficits. It has been evident for months that Trump was not shrinking a trade gap that he calls “unsustainable” and that he says represents a major transfer of wealth from Americans to foreigners. Economists say the trade deficit is swelling due to broad economic forces, including a chronic shortfall in national savings exacerbated by last year’s $1.5 trillion corporate and personal income tax cut. As cashflush businesses and consumers upped their spending, purchases of imported goods rose. DAVID J. LYNCH (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Teaching ‘two sides’ to science?
Trump cancels U.S. report on civilian deaths
EDUCATION As climate change becomes a hotter topic in American classrooms, politicians around the country are pushing back against the near-universal scientific consensus that global warming is real, dire and man-made. Of more than a dozen measures targeting the teaching of climate change proposed so far this year, some already have failed. But they have emerged in growing numbers, many inspired or directly encouraged by a pair of advocacy groups: the Discovery Institute and the Heartland Institute. “You have to present two sides of the argument and allow the kids to deliberate,” said Republican state Sen. David Bullard of Oklahoma, a former high school geography teacher whose bill, based on model legislation from the Discovery Institute, ran into opposition from science teachers and went nowhere. Scientists and science education organizations have blasted such proposals for sowing confusion on a topic of global urgency. “You can’t talk about two sides when the other side doesn’t have a foot in reality,” said University of Illinois climate scientist
Donald Wuebbles. In the mainstream scientific community, there is little disagreement about the basics: that greenhouse gases from the burning of coal, oil and gas are causing the world to warm in a dangerous manner. More than 90 percent of the peer-reviewed studies and scientists who write them say climate change is a human-caused problem. The battle over global warming resembles the fight that began decades ago over the teaching of evolution, in which opponents led by conservative Christians have long called for schools to present what they consider both sides of the issue. Instruction on global warming varies widely from place to place, but climate change and how humans are altering the planet are core topics emphasized in the Next Generation Science Standards, developed by a group of states. Nineteen states and the District of Columbia have adopted the standards, and 21 others have embraced some of the material with modifications. Still, a survey released in 2016 found that of public middle and high school teachers who taught
States seek alternatives Connecticut and Iowa: After adopting the Next Generation Science Standards, which has climate change as a core topic, lawmakers in both states proposed alterations. Connecticut state Rep. John Piscopo, a Republican, said he wants to eliminate the section on climate change, calling it “totally one-sided.” Florida: State Sen. Dennis Baxley is pressing legislation that would allow schools to teach alternatives to controversial theories. “There is really no established science on most things, you’ll find,” the GOP legislator said.

something about climate change, about a quarter gave equal time to perspectives that “raise doubt about the scientific consensus.” By early February, nonprofit National Center for Science Education flagged over a dozen bills this year as threats to the integrity of science education, more than it typically sees in an entire year.

Politicians say alternatives to climate change should be taught in classrooms around U.S.
Discovery Institute, which says teachers should not be prohibited from addressing strengths and weaknesses of concepts such as evolution and global warming. Other bills introduced this year in such states as Virginia, Arizona and Maine call for teachers to avoid political or ideological indoctrination of their students. “If they’re teaching about a subject, such as climate change, and they present both sides, that’s fine. That’s as it should be. A teacher who presents a skewed extension of their political beliefs, that’s closer to indoctrinating. That’s not good to kids,” said Virginia state Rep. Dave LaRock, a Republican. While there are many details about climate science hotly debated among scientists, it is wellestablished that global warming is real, human-caused and a problem, said scientist Chris Field, director of the Stanford Woods Institute for the Environment. Field said: “When people say we ought to present two sides, they’re saying we ought to present a side that’s totally been disproven along with a side that has been fundamentally supported by the evidence.” MICHAEL MELIA (AP)
NATIONAL SECURITY The Trump administration has revoked part of an Obama-era executive order mandating an annual accounting of how many civilians have died in military and CIA strikes, reducing the potential for public scrutiny of such activities overseas. The White House said that the change affected one section of President Obama’s 2016 order on civilian casualties, which was part of an effort to provide a clearer picture of the attacks. The section that was rescinded required an annual public report tallying how many counterterrorism strikes involving drones or manned aircraft occurred outside war zones, as well as estimating how many civilians were killed. In a message sent to Capitol Hill before the announcement, the State Department said the report was redundant because Congress had passed legislation requiring the Defense Department to provide a separate, more exhaustive annual report on civilian casualties from military activities. But the congressionally mandated report covers only military strikes rather than those conducted by the CIA, creating what Larry Lewis, a director at the Center for Naval Analysis, called a “transparency gap.” In recent years, the CIA has carried out fewer strikes in countries such as Pakistan, but it retains the ability to do so.

Bureau proposes plan to learn legal status of millions of immigrants WASHINGTON As the U.S. Supreme Court weighs whether the Trump administration can ask people if they are citizens on the 2020 Census, the Census Bureau is quietly seeking comprehensive information about the legal status of millions of immigrants. Under a proposed plan, the Department of Homeland Security would provide the Census Bureau with personal data about noncitizens, including their immigration status, full names and addresses, birth dates and places, as well as Social Security numbers and highly sensitive alien registration numbers, The Associated Press has learned. A pending agreement between the agencies has been in the works since at least January, the same month a federal judge in New York blocked the administration from adding the question. On Wednesday, a federal judge in California also declared that adding the citizenship question to the Census was unconstitutional. The data dump would be apparently unprecedented and give the Census Bureau a view of immigrants’ citizenship status that

is even more precise than what can be gathered in door-to-door canvassing, according to bureau research. Civil rights groups accuse the White House of pursuing a citizenship question because it would discourage noncitizens from participating in the Census and lead to less federal money and representation in Congress for states with large immigrant populations. Census researchers say including the question could yield underreporting for immigrants and communities of color. In mid-April, the Supreme Court will hear arguments as to whether the 2020 Census can include a citizenship question, with a decision expected weeks later. GARANCE BURKE AND FRANK BAJAK (AP)

N. Korea rebuilds launch site NATIONAL SECURITY North Korea is restoring facilities at a long-range rocket launch site that it dismantled last year as part of disarmament steps, according to foreign experts and a South Korean lawmaker who was briefed by Seoul’s spy service. The finding follows a highstakes nuclear summit last week between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and President Trump that ended without any agreement. South Korea’s National Intelligence Service provided the assessment of the North’s Tongchang-ri launch site to lawmakers during a private briefing Tuesday. North Korea didn’t immediately respond in its state media. “I would be very disappointed if that were happening,” Trump told reporters Wednesday at the White House, adding that he would be “very, very disappointed in Chairman Kim.” Trump said it was “a very early report” and that “we’ll see what happens. We’ll take a look. It will ultimately get solved.” An article from 38 North, a website specializing in North Korea studies, cited commercial satellite imagery as indicating that efforts to rebuild some structures at the site started between Feb. 16 and March 2. Dismantling parts of its longrange rocket launch facility was among several steps the North

Satellite images show restoring of facility Kim dismantled last year
took last year when it entered nuclear talks with the U.S. and South Korea. North Korea has carried out satellite launches at the site in recent years, resulting in U.N. sanctions over expert claims that they were disguised tests of banned missile technology. It wasn’t immediately clear how the report might affect nuclear diplomacy. The TrumpKim summit fell apart because of differences over how much sanction relief North Korea could win in return for closing its aging main nuclear complex. The U.S. and North Korea accused each other of causing the summit breakdown, but both sides left the door open for future negotiations. Trump said Kim told him that North Korea would continue to suspend nuclear and missile tests
What’s going on at site? The 38 North report published Tuesday said the launch site’s railmounted processing building, where space launch vehicles are worked on before being moved to the launch pad, is being reassembled. It said two support cranes can be seen at the building, and walls have been erected and a roof added. At the engine test stand, the website said, it appears that the engine support structure is being reassembled. It said new roofs have been installed on the fuel and oxidizer buildings. (AP)
while negotiations are underway, and South Korea and the U.S. announced Sunday that they are eliminating massive springtime military drills and replacing
them with smaller exercises in an effort to support the talks. One of the South Korean lawmakers who attended the intelligence briefing said Wednesday that NIS director Suh Hoon said the structures being restored at the launch site include roofs and building doors. The lawmaker requested anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the information. He quoted Suh as saying the move could be preparation to restart long-range rocket launches if nuclear diplomacy completely collapses, or could be an attempt to add structures that could be dramatically blown up in a show of denuclearization commitment when U.S. inspectors visit if negotiations with Washington go well.

BORDER CROSSINGS
The approximate number of migrants who crossed the southwest border and entered the U.S. last month, more than double the number from the same period last year, according to U.S. Customs and Border Protection. Most were families coming in increasingly large groups — there were 70 groups of more than 100 people in the past few months — who crossed in extremely rural locations with few agents and staff. Border officials said that since October, more than 130,000 families have been apprehended between ports of entry.

TECHNOLOGY Facebook chief executive Mark Zuckerberg announced sweeping changes to Facebook’s services Wednesday, saying in a blog post that he would spend the next several years reorienting the company’s apps toward encryption and privacy. The moves would shift the company’s focus from a social network in which people broadcast information to large groups of people to one in which people communicate with smaller groups and their content disappears after a short period of time, Zuckerberg said. Facebook’s core social network is structured around public conversation, but it also owns WhatsApp and Messenger, both closed networks. The announcement comes with major risks and is also likely to be treated skeptically. Zuckerberg has promised to protect privacy before, but the company has landed itself in controversy after controversy. Many governments also oppose encryption, and Facebook may end up getting blocked in some foreign countries as a result of the move, a risk Zuckerberg noted. Describing the changes as transforming from a town square into a living room, Zuckerberg wrote: “As I think about the future of the internet, I believe a privacy-focused communications platform will become even more important than today’s open platforms.” ELIZABETH DWOSKIN (TWP)

House Democrats on Wednesday postponed indefinitely a vote on a resolution condemning anti-Semitism after a contentious meeting in which some new members confronted leaders over their push to rebuke Rep.

In the party’s weekly closed meeting, Democrats protested the way Speaker Nancy Pelosi and other leaders tried to rush out a resolution this week responding to Omar’s latest remark about Israel. Opposition to the resolution ranged from the most junior ranks of Democrats to the most senior and spanned some of the party’s caucuses. (AP)
The Democratic National Committee has decided to exclude Fox News Channel from televising any of its candidate debates during the 2019-2020 cycle after an article in The New Yorker detailed the cable network’s close ties to the Trump administration. DNC Chairman Tom Perez cited the article in a statement Wednesday, saying the reporting “has led me to conclude that the network is not in a position to host a fair and neutral debate for our candidates.” Fox News Senior Vice President Bill Sammon responded with a statement in which he said he hopes the DNC reconsiders.

The Arizona Republican, a 26-year military veteran, made the disclosure at a Senate hearing on the military’s efforts to prevent sexual assaults and improve the response when they occur. McSally said she did not report being raped because she did not trust the system. The senator did not go into much detail. She didn’t name any names, but she referred to “perpetrators” who had sexually assaulted her, an indication that she had been attacked more than once. (AP)

At issue is whether Trump or his lawyers knew that Cohen’s statement to Congress would be false, and whether the attorneys had any direct role in crafting it.

Bryce’s pitch to lure Trout irks Angels
REDSKINS | ANALYSIS
How to get a quarterback
Bryce Harper, who last week signed a 13-year deal with the Phillies, wants to help his club get another big star. His recent comments about trying to recruit the Angels’ Mike Trout — who won’t be a free agent until after the 2020 season — led the Angels to complain about tampering. MLB said Wednesday it is “aware of the situation” and has contacted both clubs. Unlike the NBA, for example, baseball prohibits players from trying to lure members of other teams. Trout grew up near Philadelphia and has played in only one postseason series with the Angels. “If you don’t think I’m going to call Mike Trout in 2020 to have him come to Philly, you’re crazy,” Harper told a Philadelphia radio station. (TWP)
With the return of Alex Smith from a broken leg in great doubt — he was severely injured and turns 35 in May — the Redskins need a quarterback to at least compete with Colt McCoy, the longtime backup who also broke his leg last season. The club might feel pressure to do something big to energize a frustrated and shrinking fan base, but that won’t be easy given that the Redskins have just $18.7 million in salary cap space. With the start of free agency six days away, here are some options. LES CARPENTER (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Sign Teddy Bridgewater
Trade up to draft a quarterback
Tony Pauline of draftanalyst.com reported that Washington has been talking to Arizona about trading for last year’s 10th overall pick, Josh Rosen. The Cardinals own the first pick in this year’s draft and might want Oklahoma’s Kyler Murray; when new Arizona coach Kliff Kingsbury was at Texas Tech, he recruited Murray. Rosen struggled last year but was one of the top prospects in a strong QB class, and he would count less than $4 million against the cap.
The Redskins’ top executives say the team could make the playoffs this season after three straight misses, so getting a veteran makes sense. Assuming Nick Foles signs with Jacksonville, the top free agent quarterback available is Teddy Bridgewater, 26. The former first-round pick became a full-time starter with the Vikings in 2015, but then was sidelined by a serious knee injury and has barely played since, so he would be relatively affordable.
Enthusiasm for Kyler Murray soared so much at the NFL Scouting Combine last week that the Redskins might not have a chance at him, even if he is the player they covet. Most draft analysts say this is a mediocre group of quarterbacks; still, quarterbacks tend to move up beyond projections in the first round. So if the Redskins fall in love with Ohio State’s Dwayne Haskins, Missouri’s Drew Lock or Duke’s Daniel Jones, they might have to trade up to get any of them.
Draft one with the 15th pick
Stick with Colt McCoy
Sign a lower-level free agent
Team president Bruce Allen was vague at the combine when he gave the Redskins’ thoughts on taking a quarterback in Round 1, but he and Doug Williams, the head of player personnel, indicated an aversion to trading away picks to move up from No. 15. That suggests the Redskins would take Missouri’s Drew Lock or Duke’s Daniel Jones, above, if either is available. NFL writer John Clayton’s mock draft has the Redskins taking Jones to compete with Colt McCoy.
Coach Jay Gruden realizes that many people in the NFL don’t share his belief that longtime backup Colt McCoy can be an effective starter. But Gruden has long seen McCoy as an ideal fit for his offense. Many on the team admire his fire as the scout team quarterback and appreciate the way he mentors young players. But McCoy would not excite fans, and his injury history makes it hard for a Redskins staff that believes it must win now to count on him as the starter.
A veteran such as 29-year-old Tyrod Taylor, above, would be signed with the expectation that he compete with Colt McCoy for the starting job. Ryan Fitzpatrick, 36, and Josh McCown, 39, are also former starters who could be signed to battle it out with McCoy, although their ages might make them a tough sell to fans as potential starters. The Redskins liked what Josh Johnson did at the end of last season and are interested in bringing him back as a third-string option.

Casserly: Murray bombed in interviews with teams
Yankees ace Severino out 2 weeks with sore shoulder
With backpacks banned, stadium will offer lockers
The NFL Network’s Charley Casserly said Tuesday that Oklahoma’s Kyler Murray, whose stock rose last week at the NFL Scouting Combine, fared poorly in interviews with teams. The former Redskins general manager said the feedback he got from teams was “the worst report I’ve ever heard on a top-ranked quarterback from the interview part of it.” He said they found, “Leadership — not good. Study habits — not good. The board work — below not good.” Oklahoma coach Lincoln Riley vigorously defended Murray on Wednesday. Riley said clubs might be creating a “smokescreen” to damage his status with competing teams. (TWP)
New York Yankees ace Luis Severino said Wednesday in Tampa that he expects to resume throwing in two weeks. He will miss his openingday start March 28 because of right-shoulder inflammation. He was scratched from his first spring training start Tuesday because he felt discomfort after throwing his first slider in a pregame bullpen session. Severino, 25, will have a cortisone shot. The Yankees didn’t project when he could rejoin the rotation. Jonathan Loaisiga and Domingo German are possible replacements in a rotation that also includes Masahiro Tanaka, James Paxton, CC Sabathia and J.A. Happ. (AP)
The Nationals said Wednesday that Binbox, a D.C.-based startup, will make 500 storage lockers available at the right field and home plate gates outside Nationals Park this season. The lockers are being installed in the wake of a team policy banning backpacks in the stadium. Binbox said it plans to have 1,000 lockers available outside the park on game days by June. Medium lockers (10 by 15 by 22 inches) will cost $2 per hour, with large lockers (15 by 15 by 22) costing $3 per hour. Rental fees will be capped at $10 and $15, respectively, each game. The Nationals said they won’t make money from the rentals. (TWP)

As it turns out, both women were completing their music
doctorates at local universities and were writing dissertations on female composers. They were also fed up with sexism in the music industry, which led them to team up and start the Boulanger Initiative last spring.

After more than a decade rotating through various music halls in D.C., PostClassical Ensemble found an unlikely permanent home in 2017: Washington National Cathedral. “[It’s] an extraordinary, beautiful place, but it’s not an auditorium, so there are acoustical challenges,” says ensemble co-founder Angel Gil-Ordóñez, 61. The vast space is so echoey, it can make fast passages sound muddy, Gil-Ordóñez says. His solution? Move the stage to the middle of the nave, and seat the audience on three sides, so that no one is very far from the musicians. “One of the wonderful things about conducting is that you get to be immersed in music. I want to give the audience that experience, too,” he says. A resident of D.C.’s Chevy Chase neighborhood, Gil-Ordóñez so loves being bathed in sound, he won't be taking time off on his dream day. My dream day would be a Saturday in spring, because isn’t it just the most beautiful time of the year? I would start with coffee with my wife, Adriana, at Politics and Prose. It’s a very informational and familiar atmosphere, and they have wonderful coffee and croissants.
I love conducting so much, a dream day would include rehearsing a Haydn symphony in one of my favorite spaces in Washington, the Coolidge Auditorium in the Library of Congress. When I conduct Haydn, I am the happiest person in the world. I love his sense of humor and simplicity.
I would invite three people who I would love to meet: Sonia Sotomayor, the Supreme Court justice; the new representative, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez; and [U.S. Sen.] Tim Kaine from Virginia, who loves Spain and is a great supporter of Hispanic culture. I would invite them for real lunch to another place, a family-run Mexican restaurant called El Sol Restaurante & Tequileria, where we will have Mexican enchiladas. After so much food, I would like to walk to the Mall and see my favorite memorial, the FDR Memorial. I love the four rooms and the sculptures. It’s a place for quietness and relaxation. Let’s keep walking to another of my favorite places, The Phillips Collection. I love the small Rothko Room. The simplicity and the elegance in the colors is what excites me about Rothko. I think beauty is the result of excellence, of everything in place — this is what makes Rothko and Haydn so perfect. I would invite my friends to meet me at Blues Alley to see Arturo Sandoval, the Latin jazz trumpet player. He actually will be performing there in April. I would probably like to have a mojito or maybe just a gin and tonic. What better way to end the day than at Blues Alley having some drinks and dinner with friends?

Freshly ground coffee is delicious, Tenner says, but cheap electric coffee grinders tend to break, and expensive ones are, well, expensive. “So I bought one of these hand-grinders, and it’s the most meditative thing. When you turn the crank, you can already smell the beans.

Browse books in real life Amazon’s algorithms are great for suggesting tomes on topics you’ve already shown an interest in, but bookstores and library sales can lead to serendipitous finds. “I often will see something at one of these book sales that was not necessarily on my list, but when I see it, I think ‘Aha, this is something I’m interested in,’ ” Tenner says. He recently picked up a riveting book on longevity by a Soviet scientist this way. “Sadly, he died two years after the book was published,” Tenner says.
Avoid digital textbooks “Psychologists have shown that printed text is better for getting the big picture and electronic text is better for learning details,” Tenner says. “That’s why I use both.” In the case of textbooks, however, Tenner always chooses paper over electronic. “You can write in the margins, you can insert bookmarks and you can read them for a long time without having to worry about your battery going dead,” he says.

Waze and Google Maps are invaluable navigation tools, but if you’re not in a big hurry, try making up your own route, Tenner recommends. You might just end up discovering a new neighborhood or finding an entire town you never knew existed. “One time I took a state road that turned into a bridge I couldn’t get off of, and I ended up in Muscatine, Iowa — an absolutely fascinating place that once produced half of the world’s buttons,” Tenner says.

Like many bibliophiles, Edward Tenner is not a fan of decluttering expert Marie Kondo’s advice about paring down your library to just the books you truly love. “If you think about it, the books you haven’t read yet or don’t fully understand, those are the really valuable ones,” Tenner says. His 2018 book, “The Efficiency Paradox: What Big Data Can’t Do,” describes many ways that streamlining can backfire — for companies as well as individuals. “Cutting down on wasted time and energy is a good thing, but sometimes you have to tolerate short-term waste for long-run breakthroughs,” says Tenner, a distinguished research scholar at the Smithsonian’s Lemelson Center for the Study of Invention and Innovation. The author, who’ll give a talk at Kramerbooks on Wednesday, offers these tips for injecting some “strategic inefficiency” into your life. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS) Get a little lost sometimes
SUPER ART FIGHT
Take long walks There are c er ta i n ly quicker ways of getting from place to pl ac e, but perambulating is uniquely suited to thinking, Tenner says. “Walking is really optimal for stimulating the brain — it’s much better than sitting, but it’s also better than more strenuous exercise, like running. Darwin had a path constructed behind his house that he would walk around whenever he had a problem to think about,” he says.
Take notes longhand If you’re in a meeting or a class, you’ll learn more by jotting things on paper than by typing on a computer, Tenner says. “When you’re writing by hand, you can’t keep up, so you process
the information and extract the most important ideas. The act of taking notes in that way results in more active learning than taking notes with a keyboard because it is less efficient,” he says.

Turn off your phone Monitoring your work emails — or even just having your phone out and visible on your desk — drains your attention and robs you of the ability to problem-solve and innovate on a larger scale, Tenner says. Plus, it’s probably bad for your longterm productivity. “In America, there’s this spirit in the workplace where you’re always on duty,” he says. “Germans, on the other hand, are known for being efficient and conscientious when they are at work, but when it’s quitting time, they really quit. They will quit in the middle of slicing a salami.” Kramerbooks, 1517 Connecticut Ave. NW; Wed., 6:30 p.m., free.

A performer in “Confection” decorates his cake, and he’ll probably eat it too.
Life is sweet … for some of the people STAGE “Confection” is a bit of a mystery. For starters, how many theatrical performances come with a suggestion that audience members wear comfortable shoes? But one thing is certain: There will be snacks.
The Folger Theatre commissioned Third Rail Projects, a New York-based company, to create an experience that is far more immersive than a typical night out at the theater. The company researched documents in the library that describe banquets and

feasts enjoyed by the late-17thcentury European aristocracy to create a piece that asks audiences to think about inequity, consumption and appetite. During the 45-minute experience, a group of no more than 50 audience members will walk through the Folger Shakespeare Library’s usually restricted Paster and Sedgwick-Bond reading rooms; the five-member cast will perform, dance and interact with the audience. The evening culminates with a communal pastry experience. To create the treats, Third Rail Projects approached Lila Miller, owner of D.C.-based Lupin Baking Company. She was intrigued by how the themes of “Confection” were interwoven with her usual work. “On the baking side, you have to think about, ‘Where is my

cinnamon and vanilla sourced? Where does the money go?’ ” she says. “There are people working on these cocoa farms — what are their lives like? Here we are just guzzling chocolate on a bad day, but where does [it] come from?” Per the Folger’s request, Miller created three different desserts for “Confection” (how they fit in to the performance is something she’s keeping quiet about). The first goodie is a brown bread, which is sweetened with molasses and has a good dose of allspice — a common ingredient in Jamaican cooking. “Here we are talking about the cost of indulgence, and this is a molasses-heavy thing, so I thought about molasses and Jamaica and the slave trade and extractive industries in general,” Miller says. “So as you’re eating it, you get this sweet treat and it’s satisfying and comforting, but it also has this allspice. I’m hoping people will also think about Jamaica; it brings up all these other connotations.” The Folger specifically requested another treat — a French

macaron. Since the tiny cookies are so prevalent, Miller wanted to make sure this one was special. “I thought that everyone would be so sick of the standard flavors — chocolate, chocolate with caramel, chocolate with coconut,” Miller says. She ended up filling the traditional cookies with a ginger buttercream that’s inspired by a ginger jam she uses in her non-theatrical baking. The third pastry is a miniature
cake, though not a variety offered by Duncan Hines. “I wanted to do flavors that were unique, that you wouldn’t just have when you go out for dinner or dessert somewhere,” Miller says. She eventually landed on a vanilla cake with a cardamom buttercream frosting and a passion fruit drizzle. There will be no need to push and shove to get to the front of the pastry line. “Everyone gets something,” Miller says (however, there are no allowances made for dietary restrictions). “But there’s still this inequality of who gets what and how much of it — this sort of decadence and disparity element.” Regardless of how much (or how little) each audience member gets, one thing about the confections of “Confection” is sure: They have to be better than an overpriced Twix devoured at intermission.

Just how vital are women to D.C.’s economy? Enough to put the District on the map: A 2018 study conducted for American Express touts the area as one of the top 10 U.S. cities for employment growth from woman-owned businesses. Hank’s Oyster Bar, Ice Cream Jubilee, DC Improv and more local spots have swelled in size and popularity within the past few years, providing the city more diversity and vitality. Ahead of International Women’s Day on Friday, local female business owners share the love by highlighting their favorite neighborhood haunts — and the fearless women behind them.

Over the past 14 years, Jamie Leeds has built a restaurant empire with six Hank’s locations — and she’s nowhere close to done. By next year, Hank’s will have its own events space in Old Town Alexandria, in the same building as Hank’s Pasta Bar. The expansion was a long time coming — for Leeds, running Hank’s was always about more than just oysters. “I view [Hank’s] as a people business more so than a food business,” she says. She makes a point to support other businesses that share her community-first mindset, one of them being Pizzeria Paradiso. “[Owner Ruth Gresser] cares about her people, and we both share the same ethos. We’re neighborhood-driven, we care about the communities that we live in and we also give back.”
“Surprisingly in D.C., and all across the U.S., most hair salons are still segregated,” says Shun Pittman, owner of Corps d’Elite, a U Street salon intended to make hair and makeup services accessible to everyone — regardless of skin color or hair texture. One of the salon’s hallmarks is its late-night beauty bar, open until 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays and stocked with makeup developed by the entrepreneur herself. After working late hours on her 4-year-old business, Pittman finds solace in the outdoors. “Jessica Tunon runs Netwalking, and it’s genius,” Pittman says of the networking meetup. “It’s health-conscious and it gets people walking around our beautiful city. You’re not using your digital devices — you’re having quality time bonding with people.”
Kathleen Donahue
Pia Carusone
How has Capitol Hill board game store Labyrinth Games & Puzzles managed to thrive for nine years in an era when online retailers are king? “Our community is what makes us special,” says owner Kathleen Donahue. Labyrinth boasts roughly 3,000 games “geared toward all ages, from 1 to 100,” and regularly hosts events. One of Donahue’s favorite woman-owned businesses is just a few blocks away: cookware store Hill’s Kitchen. “[Owner] Leah Daniels has done a fantastic job of building a community in a day and age where it’s hard to run an independent retail store,” Donahue says, noting that Hill’s Kitchen is a treasure trove full of unique items. “I can always find really awesome gifts there — she carries beautiful D.C.-themed coasters!”
Pia Carusone and Rachel Gardner made history in 2016 by opening D.C.’s first woman-owned distillery, Republic Restoratives. Carusone’s current role might sound drastically different from her previous position as chief of staff to former Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, but the jobs have more in common than you’d think. “[As chief of staff], you’re steadying your own ship in the sea of chaos,” she says, noting that her project management skills have been essential to running her business. Within the local food scene, Gordy’s Pickle Jar is a highlight for Carusone. “Sarah Gordon and her wife, Sheila [Fain], have built a great brand, and their product is obviously delicious,” Carusone says. “They’ve grown nationally while also staying true to their roots.”

Julianne Brenza
Victoria Lai was a high-powered lawyer leading a double life. After she’d get home from her job at the Department of Homeland Security, Lai would spend her nights whipping up imaginative ice cream flavors in her kitchen. In 2014, she took the plunge and opened her own shop, Ice Cream Jubilee, in Navy Yard. Two local restaurateurs Lai looks up to are Bettina Stern and Suzanne Simon of Chaia Tacos, which serves vegan tacos. “Chaia in Georgetown started as a passion project that initially began at a farmers market,” Lai says. “They’re focused on local, healthy, fun-to-eat foods — like tacos and cocktails — and they’re just so keyed in to what customers want. They have a beautiful sense of flavors and styles.”
If an idea seems too offbeat for any of D.C.’s biggest venues, it most likely has a home at Capital Fringe. The 14-year-old organization began as an annual theater festival spotlighting experimental productions, and has blossomed into a bustling arts space in Northeast that will soon boast three performance stages, a full-service bar and a gallery. With a festival to plan and building renovations to manage, Capital Fringe co-founder Julianne Brenza escapes from the hustle and bustle with a short trip down the street. “Bluebird Sky Yoga in Brookland — and owner Jennie Light — has made a huge impact on my life,” Brenza says. “They welcome everyone as if you were a friend, not just a client. The schedule is very robust and the teachers are really gracious.”
Allyson Jaffe
Rachel Snider
Being a co-owner of a comedy club isn’t all funny business for Allyson Jaffe. Her role at DC Improv requires her to be a dexterous publicist, talent booker and event planner, on top of managing the club’s comedy school. “There are also a lot of little things, too — if you call the club and get a message telling you who’s performing, it’s me,” Jaffe says. DC Improv regularly hosts national headliners in addition to local acts such as CSz DC’s ComedySportz, which puts on family-friendly improv competitions. “[CSz DC owner] Liz Demery is a talented performer, teacher and coach,” Jaffe says. “It’s all short-form improv, similar to what you would see on ‘Whose Line Is It Anyway?’ No show is the same and the performers are pros.”
You don’t need Floyd Mayweather’s fighting skills to duke it out at NoMa boxing studio Nuboxx. You just need the right attitude. Oh, and a good pair of boxing gloves helps, too. “I want Nuboxx to be welcoming for everyone, and all intimidation left at the door,” says owner Rachel Snider, who opened the boutique gym in 2017. After getting a nice workout at Nuboxx, Snider refreshes her skin using products from Take Care, a Georgetown beauty store owned by Becky Waddell. “When I see [Becky], we talk as if we’re good friends rather than me being treated as just a customer,” she says. “Although we’re in different industries, at the end of the day we’re both entrepreneurs. It’s just nice to know that you’re not alone in all of this.”

Beth Helle and Julie Drews were co-workers at a consulting firm who had more in common than just their jobs. The two also brewed their own beer, which led them to open their Arlington store in 2016. The Brew Shop features a draft line where customers can fill their growlers with special releases from local breweries, a variety of homebrewing essentials and even a wine club. “It’s a chance for our regulars to gather, share some wine and get two really cool bottles each month,” says Helle, far left. When not at work, both women attend classes at Blue Nectar Yoga in Falls Church. “[Owner] Jane Bahneman is opening a second spot in Crystal City, and it’s inspiring to see someone who started something for themselves grow [a business] like that,” Drews says.

But Kimberly Smith and Amaya Smith (unrelated longtime friends) run Dupont Circle store Brown Beauty Co-Op while also holding down day jobs. “We felt that our own personal wants and needs weren’t reflected in a lot of mainstream beauty stores,” says Amaya, far left. Among the store’s selection of skin, hair and makeup products is foot care line Naturally London. “The owner [Chris Cabrera] is an Air Force veteran who started her business from her home,” Kimberly says. “I personally feel connected to businesses that started from scratch and ended up growing beyond their friends and family.”

Violet
Rebecca Lee Funk encourages you to be outraged when you walk into her store. The Outrage opened in 2017 as an Adams Morgan pop-up shop selling feminist apparel in partnership with the Women’s March. The brand (which also has a location in Philadelphia) donates a portion of each sale to “progressive organizations fighting for social change.” In 2018, The Outrage moved into its current 14th Street location, which will soon house a community space. “We’ve gotten support from a ton of businesses in our neighborhood, including Amanda McClements of Little Leaf,” Funk says of the plant shop. “Amanda is also the owner of Salt & Sundry — her businesses all have the most stunning items, and she’s just brilliant at merchandising.”
Julie Egermayer’s Violet is a breath of fresh air for shoppers who loathe pricey designer stores that feel haughty and inaccessible. Everything inside the Shaw boutique — which offers affordable apparel for women — is under $100. “Oftentimes, I’d go into a boutique and I’d feel like I wasn’t acknowledged or my business didn’t matter,” Egermayer says about why she started Violet in 2011. “[Friendly customer service] is important, especially in how women enjoy shopping.” She cites Virginia Arrisueño, the owner of Navy Yard retail incubator Steadfast Supply, as a force in D.C.’s creative community. “I’m just in awe of her vision,” Egermayer says. “[Her store is] not just a great place to shop for local items, but it’s also to take a creative workshop or class.”

‘Masterpieces’ and what matters Three women salvage all they can in the play by Heather McDonald
C STANLEY PHOTOGRAPHY PHOTOS
STAGE In the play “Masterpieces of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity,” now in production at Signature Theatre, three women — a nurse, a soldier and an art restorer — are in an art museum in an unnamed country, where a 100-year-long war rages outside. The museum has been converted to a prison, the restorer is charged with rehabbing a damaged Rembrandt, and the other two are there to make sure she does it. The women’s relationships begin to shift as they all play their roles in trying to save one example of the beauty humans can create. “It spoke to me really clearly about what is it in this world that really matters,” says Nadia Tass, who is directing the world premiere. “Given a situation where a person can save something at a time of destruction, what is that something they will choose? And as a human race, what is it we are going to choose — what’s valuable?” The production is this year’s effort for the Heidi Thomas Writers’ Initiative, which is the theater’s five-year commitment to presenting world-premiere plays by female playwrights and helmed by female directors. For playwright Heather McDonald, this particular story had to be told through female characters. “I wanted to explore how we make people ‘other’ in order to be able to dehumanize someone and allow for all sorts of acts of horror,” she says. “I was interested in thinking about women in that situation and would they behave any differently. I felt like even if there were one male character in the mix, it would be a different story.” Women not only dominate “Masterpieces” onstage, but backstage as well. They make

up the vast majority of the play’s creative team, and for actors Holly Twyford, Felicia Curry and Yesenia Iglesias, this is the first time in their careers that’s
been the case. And it’s made a difference. “It is a little bit of a different dynamic,” says Twyford, who plays Layla, the art restorer.
“That doesn’t necessarily mean it’s better or worse. It’s maybe a little less complicated sometimes — I feel like we communicate very easily in the room.” Curry, who plays Mitra, the soldier, says that ease of communication has made a noticeable difference when it comes to bringing up ideas, questions and doubts during the rehearsal process. During some other shows, “my hesitation to say anything is because I don’t want to be judged. I feel like I have to come up with the right thing to say before I say it,” she says. “In an environment like this, where I don’t have to worry about that, it doesn’t matter what comes out of my mouth — everyone is going to respect it, or at least listen to it.” All three of the actors agree that their involvement with this
production will affect how they’ll feel the next time they walk into a rehearsal room. In the future, “[I will] fear less the consequences of speaking up, fear less the judgment or any sort of connotations that come with speaking up,” says Iglesias, who plays Nadia, the nurse. “I would love other theaters to pick up on the kind of difference this makes in a theater space, in a rehearsal space, and embrace it for themselves.” “Having this experience with a female cast, a female creative team, I just feel stronger,” Curry says. “I feel like I can be heard and I must be heard.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

FILM When Steven Spielberg speaks about the business of Hollywood, everyone generally listens and few dissent. But the news that he intends to support rule changes that could block Netflix from Oscars eligibility have provoked a heated, and unwieldy, debate. Spielberg has weighed in before on whether streaming movies should compete for the film industry’s most prestigious award (he said last year that they should compete for Emmys, instead). But that was before Netflix nearly succeeded in getting its first best picture Oscar for Alfonso Cuaron’s “Roma” — which only got a limited theatrical run — at last week’s Academy Awards. Netflix, of course, did not win the top award — “Green Book” did. Still, Netflix was a legitimate contender, and this fall the streaming service is likely to step up its awards game with Martin Scorsese’s “The Irishman.” Now, Spielberg and others are planning to support a revised film academy regulation at an upcoming meeting of the organization’s board of governors that would disqualify Netflix from the Oscars, or at least how the streaming giant currently operates during awards season. “Steven feels strongly about the difference between the streaming and theatrical situation,” a representative from Spielberg’s Amblin Entertainment told IndieWire last week. “He’ll be happy if the
Steven Spielberg is perfectly fine with giving trophies to Netflix movies — as long as they’re Emmys and not Oscars.
others will join [his campaign].” Netflix has its strong defenders. Ben Affleck, speaking recently at the premiere of his Netflix film “Triple Frontier,” said the service is “heavily invested in telling stories.” Filmmaker Ava DuVernay tweeted at the Academy’s handle in response to the news that the topic would be discussed at a board of governors meeting, which is comprised of only 54 people out of over 8,000 members. “I hope if this is true, that you’ll have filmmakers in the room or read statements from directors like me who feel differently,” DuVernay wrote. Netflix’s film account tweeted that the service was dedicated to giving access to people who can’t afford movie tickets or live in

Others, like “First Reformed” filmmaker Paul Schrader, had their own takes. “The notion of squeezing 200+ people into a dark unventilated space to see a flickering image was created by exhibition economics, not any notion of the ‘theatrical experience,’ ” Schrader wrote in a Facebook post Saturday. “Netflix allows many financially marginal films to have a platform and that’s a good thing.” LINDSEY BAHR (AP)

Netflix to adapt novel “One Hundred Years of Solitude” into series
“Maleficent” sequel moved up to October 2019 release
CRIME R. Kelly was taken back into custody Wednesday in Chicago after appearing at a child support hearing, authorities said, hours after the broadcast of an interview in which the R&B star cried and ranted about being “assassinated” by allegations of sexual abuse. A spokeswoman for the Cook County Sheriff’s Office said Kelly would not be released from jail until he pays $161,000 in back child support. Kelly’s publicist, Darryll Johnson, said Kelly came to the hearing prepared to pay $50,000 to $60,000, but the judge wanted the whole amount. The singer’s next hearing is scheduled for March 13. Kelly was charged last month with 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse and has pleaded not guilty. He spent a weekend in jail before someone posted his $100,000 bail. The interview with “CBS This Morning” was Kelly’s first since he was charged. Kelly called his accusers liars and alleged that people are after him for his money. He told interviewer Gayle King that he never sexually abused women or controlled their lives. The 52-year-old singer is accused in Chicago of sexually abusing four people dating back to 1998, including three underage girls. “All of them are lying,” Kelly said in segments of the interview aired Wednesday. “I have been assassinated.” DON BABWIN (AP)

Viewers immediately called the parody racist, as Mexico’s indigenous cultures are often the subject of ridicule. Rosales didn’t apologize for the act, but said it wasn’t racist because she parodies all races.
internet’s latest obsession: the Cheese Challenge. The weeks-old phenomenon simply has adults throw a slice of cheese at an unsuspecting infant or toddler and post the video online. The trend has entertained some, who find the babies’ perplexed expressions hilarious. Others find it to be remarkably stupid.

In clips from the first part of their talk, which aired Wednesday morning, King maintains a measured tone of voice while Kelly — who is accused of sexually abusing four women, three of whom were allegedly underage — repeatedly gets emotional, cries and even jumps from his seat as he proclaims his innocence.

More evidence the celeb profile is a dying breed
Let’s ask her who wins the 2020 election According to Gwyneth Paltrow, psychedelics are the next big thing. The Goop CEO told The New York Times in an interview published Wednesday that she predicts the use of psychedelics in mental health will become mainstream. Paltrow also said that some things she talks about are “incendiary” at first but become popular later — such as gluten-free diets and her “conscious uncoupling” from Chris Martin. (EXPRESS)
Taylor Swift wrote an essay published Wednesday for Elle magazine’s April cover titled “30 Things I Learned Before Turning 30.” Some of the lessons Swift shared are emotional, like learning “the difference between lifelong friendships and situationships,” and “how to fight fair with the ones you love.” But others were more mundane. Swift said she has recently discovered Command Strips, which she referred to as Command tape. “This is not an ad. I just really love Command tape,” she wrote. The pop star also said she has learned not to use Sharpie for eyeliner, to take her vitamins, and how to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit in her head. (EXPRESS)

Rita Ora and Andrew Garfield have reportedly called it quits, according to The Sun and The Mirror. The Sun reported that Garfield ended things with Ora because he wanted a more private life, and had concerns about her life in the spotlight. A source described Ora as “cut up” over the split. The pair are thought to have been dating since November, but neither of them ever publicly confirmed the romance. (EXPRESS)
