German police say a drunk man smashed into the driver’s cab of a high-speed train from Frankfurt to Paris to demand the driver slow down. Police said the Deutsche Bahn train stopped near Frankfurt after the incident Sunday morning. The man took a fire extinguisher off the wall, smashed a glass door separating the cab from the passenger area, and told the shocked driver the train was going much too fast and he had to save the passengers.

Enjoy eye-popping orchids SMITHSONIAN Through April 28, hundreds of varieties of orchids are on display in the Kogod Courtyard, located between the Smithsonian American Art Museum and the National Portrait Gallery. They are part of the 24th annual orchid exhibition, a collaboration between Smithsonian Gardens and the U.S. Botanic Garden. This is the first time the orchids have been shown in the Kogod.
Orchids fill eight large marble planters, arranged with fake trees and non-orchid plants from the Smithsonian Gardens’ vast collection. Each bed reflects a topic, such as how orchids have evolved to grow on trees or other plants, or how they “disguise” themselves to trick pollinators. There are about 28,000 species of orchids, making them the second-largest family of flowering plants on Earth. The
juxtaposition of flowers from across the world is Smithsonian Gardens’ lead horticulturist Justin Kondrat’s favorite part of the exhibition. “Walking through, all of these orchids are next to each other, so you can compare and contrast the diversity of size, color and shape,” he says. “What’s so beautiful is that there’s so much diversity, but they’re still all classified as orchids.”
The courtyard setting allows visitors to take a seat next to an orchid and enjoy it from inches away. For the most enjoyment, Kondrat suggests visiting as soon as the museum opens, since some of the orchids give off scents to attract pollinators in the morning, or waiting until late afternoon or evening. “When the museum quiets down, some of the orchids will pop,” he says.

Bowser lays out plans in annual city address THE DISTRICT D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, D, proposed to raise taxes on commercial property transactions to fund more affordable housing during the annual State of the District address Monday night. As she starts her second term in earnest, Bowser stressed the need for more subsidized housing in a city where real estate values have soared, pricing out many longtime residents. She wants to increase the city’s annual contribution to the Housing Production Trust Fund, which provides grants and loans to developers to build affordable housing, from $100 million to $130 million. The mayor also wants to add $5 million to a separate $10 million fund to rehabilitate and preserve existing subsidized housing and to create a new $20 million fund for “workforce housing” for teachers, police, firefighters, janitors and other middle-class residents. “Affordable housing isn’t just a problem for our most vulnerable residents, though — it affects our entire community,” she said. To pay for the new spending, Bowser told The Washington Post she wants the D.C. Council to increase the deed recordation and transfer taxes from 1.45 percent to

2.5 percent on commercial properties worth more than $2 million. Officials estimate that would raise $79 million next year. The taxes are imposed when property is sold or transferred and do not apply to residential real estate. Bowser also said the city’s Circulator bus is now free. She said that after experimenting with free fares in February and March, the city would permanently eliminate the $1 fare. Bowser presented an optimistic picture for the city’s schools. “Our pre-K program is attracting families to our city and a
much-improved system of public schools is keeping them here,” Bowser said. She also offered some sharp criticism of President Trump. “Over these past two years, instead of investments in infrastructure, housing and schools, we’ve gotten tweets, parade plans and shutdowns,” Bowser said. She called on the D.C. Council to move up the city’s presidential and local Democratic primary from June 2020 — the last on the presidential primary cycle — to April. FENIT NIRAPPIL AND PETER JAMISON

local Justices set to consider if Lee Boyd Malvo deserves new sentence VIRGINIA The Supreme Court on Monday agreed to consider Virginia’s plea to reinstate the life-withoutparole sentence of a man who as a teenager participated in sniper shootings that terrorized the D.C. region in 2002. The justices said they will take up the state’s appeal in the case of Lee Boyd Malvo, who was 17 when he and John Allen Muhammad
fatally shot 10 people in Maryland, Virginia and Washington. Malvo was sentenced to lifewithout-parole terms in Virginia and in Maryland. Muhammad was sentenced to death and was executed in 2009. Malvo, now 34, was sentenced to four life terms for crimes he committed in Virginia. But the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit ruled last year that while Malvo’s life-without-parole sentences were legal when they were imposed, Supreme Court decisions that followed altered sentencing requirements for

juvenile offenders. The appeals court judges said a resentencing would determine whether Malvo qualifies as “one of the rare juvenile offenders� who can be sentenced to life without the possibility of parole because his “crimes reflect permanent incorrigibility.� They said if his crimes instead “reflect the transient immaturity of youth,� he is entitled to a sentence short of life without parole. The case likely will be heard in the fall. Malvo has been serving his sentences at Red Onion State Prison in Pound, Va. JESSICA GRESKO (AP)

CDC studying spike in injuries on e-scooters
Glen, Wheaton and the end of the line at Glenmont. That’s bad news for Geoff Gerhardt, a policy director at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, who catches the Red Line from downtown D.C. home to Forest Glen. On those days when the Metro gods aren’t smiling, he’ll get to Metro Center and find that the next train will only go to Silver Spring. If the Red Line is running on schedule, he’ll wait four minutes for the train and then watch it go. Then he’ll wait another four minutes for the Glenmont train. But there are times when so many others are also headed toward the end of the line that he won’t be able to squeeze on. So after watching that train go, he’ll wait for the Silver Spring train. And watch that leave. “Sometimes a good 20 minutes will have gone by” before he can get on a Glenmont train, he said. The other end of the Red Line used to have the same problem. Half the trains would turn around at Grosvenor-Strathmore instead of going all the way to the end of the line at Shady Grove. Metro began running all the trains to that end of the line in December, leaving those on the less wealthy, more racially diverse Glenmont end wondering: What about them? “We’re paying a little more

METRORAIL It was 5:20 p.m. when Brigid Howe left work on a recent Wednesday at the National Council of Jewish Women, a couple of blocks from Farragut North. It was early enough that she wasn’t exactly running, as she sometimes does. But she was hurrying, hoping she wouldn’t have to wait long for the Red Line train to Wheaton. Her 7-year-old son was waiting to be picked up at his school’s after-care center at 6:30. For every minute she was late, she’d have to pay a dollar. “It’s 30 minutes on the Metro,” she said as she hurried down L Street Northwest. “But I have to walk to Farragut, and the Wheaton escalator is 237 feet long or something like that. So that takes a long time. And I have to walk to get my car and drive to child care.” “It’s not just the money,” said Howe, 45. She feels bad about keeping the child care workers late — and she remembers being the last one being picked up from child care herself. “It’s no fun for a kid,” she said. Adding to her stress is one of those maddening games of chance Metro makes you play. Half of the Red Line trains headed toward Glenmont go only to Silver Spring before turning around. That means only every other Red Line train will take you past Silver Spring to Forest

Metro’s board last Thursday preliminarily approved a $3.5 billion 2020 budget that included extending the Yellow Line to Greenbelt and running all Red Line trains between Shady Grove and Glenmont. The budget was approved by the board’s finance committee unanimously and will be up for a final vote of the full board on March 28. If it is approved, it will take some of the pressure off Howe. “I had some good Metro luck this morning. So knock on wood, we’ll see if it’s going to last,” Howe said as she approached Farragut North — hoping to see the Glenmont train coming first. As it turned out, the gods were smiling on her today.

An investigation by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is probing the reported spike in injuries related to the use of electric scooters. The devices, among the latest transportation fads, have become ubiquitous on many U.S. streets and sidewalks. The CDC is working in collaboration with the Austin, Texas, Public Health Department in “developing and evaluating methods to find and count the number of injuries related to dockless electric scooters,” a CDC spokeswoman said. The investigation, the first from the CDC into scooter injuries, comes after increasing reports of injuries and deaths related to scooters in cities including D.C. and Los Angeles. The devices, which became wildly popular soon after entering U.S. markets a year ago, are in dozens of cities nationwide and have led to a new category of injuries in emergency rooms. Cases of broken noses, wrists and shoulders, along with facial lacerations and fractures, have been reported since last summer. “This is kind of like a disease outbreak investigation — the disease in this case being injuries associated with dockless electric scooters,” said Jeff Taylor, manager of the Epidemiology and Disease Surveillance Unit at Austin Public Health, who is overseeing the study with the CDC.

Survivors of Tropical Cyclone Idai sift through destroyed buildings Friday in Beira, Mozambique.
Storm leaves ‘horrifying’ damage in Mozambique Toll from powerful cyclone is expected to climb past 1,000 MOZAMBIQUE More than 1,000 people were feared dead in Mozambique four days after a cyclone slammed into the country, submerging entire villages and leaving bodies floating in the floodwaters, the nation’s president said. Speaking on state Radio Mozambique, President Filipe Nyusi said that while the official death toll stood at 84, “It appears that we can register more than 1,000 deaths.” Cyclone Idai could prove to be the deadliest storm in generations to hit the impoverished
southeast African country of 30 million people. It struck Beira, an Indian Ocean port city of a half-million people, late Thursday and then moved inland to Zimbabwe and Malawi. However, it took days for the scope of the disaster to come into focus in Mozambique, which has a poor communication and transportation network. U.N. agencies and the Red Cross brought emergency food and medicine by helicopter to the stricken countries. Mount Chiluvo in central Mozambique was badly hit by flooding. One resident said he heard a loud noise, like an explosion, and suddenly saw a river of mud rolling toward his home.
“I was indoors with my children, but when we looked we saw mud coming down the road towards the houses and we fled,” Francisco Carlitos told Lusa, the Portuguese News Agency. The family lost their home and possessions but were not injured. The country’s president spoke after flying by helicopter over Beira and two rural provinces. The destruction in Beira is “massive and horrifying,” said Jamie LeSueur, who led a Red Cross team that had to assess the damage by helicopter because of the flooded-out roads. More than 215 people were killed by the storm in the three countries, according to official figures. Hundreds more were reported missing. ANDREW MELDRUM (AP)

Speaker nixes a third vote on Brexit deal LONDON The speaker of Britain’s House of Commons dealt a potentially fatal blow to Prime Minister Theresa May’s ailing Brexit deal on Monday, saying the government couldn’t keep asking lawmakers to vote on the same deal they have already rejected twice. The government intended to try a third time to get lawmakers to back the deal, ideally before May joins EU leaders Thursday at a Brussels summit where she is set to ask the bloc to postpone Britain’s departure. Speaker John Bercow, above, scuttled May’s plan, saying that centuries-old parliamentary rules prevent “the same proposition or substantially the same proposition” from being brought back repeatedly for votes in a session of Parliament. He said a new motion would have to be “fundamentally different. Not different in terms of wording, but different in terms of substance.” The ruling caused an uproar on the government side of the House of Commons. Solicitor General Robert Buckland said Britain was facing a “major constitutional crisis,” with not much time to solve it. By law, the U.K. will leave the EU on March 29, deal or no deal, unless it secures a delay from the bloc. Withdrawing without a deal could mean huge disruption for businesses and people in the U.K. and EU countries. JILL LAWLESS AND LORNE COOK (AP)

Source: DOJ eyeing Max jets In wake of two crashes, prosecutors seek info on Boeing’s regulation
Flash floods and landslides hit Indonesia
TED S. WARREN (AP)
TRANSPORTATION U.S. prosecutors are looking into the development of Boeing’s 737 Max jets, a person briefed on the matter revealed Monday, the same day French aviation investigators concluded there were “clear similarities” in the crash of an Ethiopian Airlines Max 8 last week and a Lion Air jet in October. The Justice Department probe will examine the way Boeing was regulated by the Federal Aviation Administration, said the person, who asked not to be identified because the inquiry is not public. A federal grand jury in Washington, D.C., sent a subpoena to someone involved in the plane’s development seeking emails, messages and other communications, the source said. The Wall Street Journal reported on the probe Sunday. It said the Transportation Department’s inspector general is looking into the plane’s anti-stall system, which may have been involved in the Oct. 29 crash of a Lion Air jet off Indonesia that killed 189 people. It’s also under scrutiny in the March 10 crash of an Ethiopian Airlines jet that killed 157. The Transportation Department’s FAA regulates Boeing and is responsible for certifying that planes can fly safely. The grand jury issued its subpoena on March 11, one day after the Ethopian Airlines crash,
A worker last week walks past an engine on a Boeing 737 Max 8 plane that is being built for American Airlines.
according to the person who spoke to The Associated Press. The French civil aviation investigation bureau BEA said Monday that black box data from the Ethiopian Airlines flight showed links with the Lion Air crash and will be used for further study. Ethiopian authorities asked BEA for help in extracting and interpreting the crashed plane’s black boxes because Ethiopia does not have the necessary expertise and technology. The United States and many other countries have grounded the Max 8s and larger Max 9s as Boeing faces the challenge of proving the jets are safe amid suspicions that faulty sensors and software contributed to the two crashes.
Both planes flew with erratic altitude changes that could indicate the pilots struggled to control the aircraft. Shortly after their takeoffs, both crews tried to return to the airports but crashed. Boeing has said it has “full confidence” in the planes’ safety. Engineers are making changes to the system designed to prevent an aerodynamic stall if sensors detect that the jet’s nose is pointed too high and its speed is too slow. Investigators looking into the Indonesian crash are examining whether the software automatically pushed the plane’s nose down repeatedly, and whether the Lion Air pilots knew how to solve that problem. Ethiopian Airlines says its pilots received special training on the software.
Dennis Tajer, an American Airlines pilot and a spokesman for their union, said Boeing held a discussion with airlines last Thursday but did not invite pilots at American or Southwest, the two U.S. carriers that use the same version of the Max that crashed in Indonesia and Ethiopia. Tajer said airline officials told the unions that Boeing intends to offer pilots about a 15-minute iPad course to train them on the new flight-control software on Max jets that is suspected of playing a role in the crashes. He called that amount of training unacceptable. “Our sense is it’s a rush to comply — ‘let’s go, let’s go, let’s go,’ ” Tajer said. “I’m in a rush to protect my passengers.” HOPE YEN AND TOM KRISHER (AP)

JAYAPURA, INDONESIA The number of people killed after torrential downpours triggered flash floods and mudslides that tore through mountainside villages in Indonesia’s easternmost province has climbed to 79, with dozens of others missing, officials said Monday. On Sunday, the country was also hit by an earthquake, triggering a landslide that hit a popular waterfall on the tourist island of Lombok, killing at least three people and damaging hundreds of homes. The worst-hit area from the flooding was Sentani subdistrict, where tons of mud, rocks and trees from a landslide on a mountain early Sunday rolled down to a river that burst its banks, sweeping away residents, National Disaster Mitigation Agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho told a news conference in Jakarta. Floodwaters and landslides destroyed roads and bridges in Papua province’s Jayapura district following days of torrential rains, Nugroho said. Nugroho said 79 bodies had been pulled from the mud and wreckage of crumpled homes by Sunday. Nugroho said the number of dead and injured would likely increase since affected areas had not been reached and dozens of people were reported missing. Nugroho said crews had evacuated more than 4,200 people. JEFFREY PATTIRAJAWANE (AP)

PM receives global praise NEW ZEALAND For the first 16 months of her tenure, Jacinda Ardern was feted around an increasingly populist world for being young, female and progressive. The New Zealand prime minister, together with Justin Trudeau of Canada and France’s Emmanuel Macron, were celebrated by some as the antidote to Donald Trump. Vogue magazine ran a glamorous photo spread of her. Sheryl Sandberg described her as a “political prodigy” when Ardern made Time magazine’s list of 100 “most influential people.” A term was coined to describe the phenomenon: “Jacindamania.” The sentiment only grew when she announced she was pregnant, becoming the second world leader to have a baby in office.

of the economy has been criticized, and her efforts to introduce more affordable housing have been plagued by embarrassing bureaucratic blunders. But these domestic problems did not dent the perception of her abroad as an inspirational leader for the modern age. Now, Jacindamania has taken on a new and totally different dimension in the last few days, since mass shootings at two mosques in Christchurch left 50 dead and 40 injured. New Zealand has never experienced this kind of attack before, and it has shaken the country. Many have lauded Ardern’s response. She swiftly labeled the attacks “terrorism” and bluntly called an Australian lawmaker’s suggestion of a link between Muslim immigration and violence “a disgrace.” “Ardern’s performance has been extraordinary — and I believe she will be strongly lauded for it both domestically and internationally,” political commentator Bryce Edwards told Reuters. When she went to Christchurch on Saturday, a day after the

attacks, Ardern visited members of the refugee and Muslim community. Dressed in black and wearing a Muslim-style headscarf known as a hijab, she tearfully told them that the whole country was “united in grief.” Wearing a hijab was “a sign of respect,” wrote Negar Mortazavi, an Iranian-American journalist and commentator. Many people also praised her pledge to cover the funeral costs of all 50 victims and offer
financial assistance to the families, as well as her swift action on gun control. Her government will introduce gun measures in Parliament next week. One particular photo captured the public imagination. It is a photo of Ardern, listening intently with an agonized look on her face and her hands clasped together. It has been shared widely on social networks, lauded as a portrait of a compassionate leader. The photo was taken by Kirk Hargreaves, who used to be a photographer for the Christchurch newspaper The Press but now works for the Christchurch City Council. “The moment I saw her face pop up, and what was happening with the flowers, I fully knew [it was important]. It’s a religious photo in a way, a photo of a mix of religious symbolism. ... It’s a universal picture,” Hargreaves told the Sydney Morning Herald. The Crisis Magazine, the official publication of the NAACP, also tweeted the photo, saying Ardern showed “Dignity. Grace. Courage.” ANNA FIFIELD

NEW ZEALAND New Zealand’s coalition government plans to announce gun law changes within the next week in response to Friday’s deadly shooting rampage at two mosques in Christchurch, Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said Monday. The measures could include restricting the military-style semiautomatic weapons that were used in the attacks, which killed 50 Muslim worshipers and injured more than 40. Similar weapons have been used in recent mass shootings in the U.S. The death toll exceeds New Zealand’s annual homicide rate; 35 people were killed in 2017. New Zealand’s Cabinet is dominated by the center-left Labour Party but includes four members of the right-wing New Zealand First party. Labour is supported by the progressive Green Party, which attended Monday’s Cabinet meeting. The Cabinet made a decision “in principle” about changing gun laws, Ardern said, adding that she will provide further details before the Cabinet meets again next Monday. “Within 10 days of this horrific act of terrorism, we will have announced reforms which will, I believe, make our community safer,” she said. The broad agreement highlights the consensus in New Zealand that making certain types of guns less accessible could have prevented or limited Friday’s massacre. ANNA FIFIELD AND SHIBANI MAHTANI (TWP)

Mayor fears terrorism in attack 3 days after New Zealand rampage
UTRECHT, NETHERLANDS A gunman killed three people and wounded five during a midmorning tram ride Monday in the Dutch city of Utrecht, raising the specter of another extremist attack only days after the murderous rampage in New Zealand. Authorities seized a
Turkish-born suspect after a manhunt that convulsed the historic city of nearly 350,000 people for most of the day. As night set in, three victims lay in critical condition, and the motive for the bloodshed remained under investigation. Prime Minister Mark Rutte said authorities were trying to determine whether the attack had “terror motives.” Justice Minister Ferd Grapperhaus said the suspect, identified as Gokmen Tanis, 37, was

The shooting came three days after 50 people were killed when a white supremacist opened fire at two mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, during Friday prayers. There was no immediate
indication of any link between the two events. The Utrecht attack took place at a busy intersection in a residential neighborhood. The gunman was alleged to have had an automatic weapon, Grapperhaus said. “We assume a terror motive,” Mayor Jan van Zanen said as police searched for the killer, though he added that other motives could not be ruled out. In the aftermath of the shooting, Dutch authorities put the Netherlands’ fourth-largest city on lockdown, raised the threat level in the area to the maximum of 5 and tightened security at airports and key buildings in the country.

Putin signs bills to restrict criticism of Russia in media
Lyft begins hailing investors for its IPO
The Philippines became the second country to withdraw from the International Criminal Court in what critics believe is an attempt to evade an investigation into President Rodrigo Duterte’s bloody war on drugs. The withdrawal comes a year after the nation gave notice of its exit, which followed an ICC announcement that the country was under preliminary examination for thousands of extrajudicial killings since Duterte rose to the presidency in 2016. Human rights watchdogs estimate that more than 20,000 such killings have taken place during Duterte’s term. (TWP)
Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed bills restricting online media and making a criminal of anyone who insults the state — laws that critics see as part of Kremlin efforts to stifle criticism and tighten media control. A bill passed by the Russian parliament earlier this month introduces fines for publishing materials showing disrespect to the state, its symbols or government organs. Another bill envisages blocking anyone who publishes “fake news� online that is perceived to threaten public health and security. It gives those who publish such information a day to correct or remove it. (AP)

Lyft has been in a race with Uber to be first to offer stock to the public. Lyft released financial details for the first time this month, reporting $2.2 billion in revenue but $911 million in losses. Lyft executives warned that the company could struggle to turn a profit.

The Big Dance is about to become an ACC party. Duke is the overall top seed for good reason — the Blue Devils will win it all. With ACC brethren North Carolina and Virginia also No. 1 seeds, it’s hard to pick against college basketball’s elite conference. Three aces usually come away a winner and a Duke-North Carolina final seems like a fitting end to this season. Duke’s Zion Williamson, who’s a lock to be the top pick in the upcoming NBA draft, returned after missing a month with a knee sprain to post 81 points and 30 rebounds over three days to lead the Blue Devils to an ACC Tournament title. Williamson and fellow future lottery pick RJ Barrett form an unstoppable force. This is easy money. To win your pool, it’s essential to get at least two teams to the Final Four and the smart money is on North Carolina more than fellow top seeds
Virginia and Gonzaga. Out West, No. 2 Michigan will outlast No. 4 Florida State to deny the ACC another Final Four bid. In the South, the Cavaliers will run into this year’s Cinderella: No. 12 Oregon. The Ducks are the bracket buster that will help you beat your office mates. They will survive Virginia and get by defending champion Villanova to advance to Minneapolis. Playing it safe doesn’t win pools. The key is finding that one low seed that will surprise everyone. No. 14 Yale, No. 13 UC-Irvine and No. 12 New Mexico State are all capable of first-round upsets. But Oregon is the only double-digit seed that can launch a deep run. The Ducks have a favorable path, with No. 5 Wisconsin in the first round and a secondround showdown against the UC-Irvine/Kansas State winner. Virginia is still unproven come tournament time — as exhibited last year when it be became the first No. 1 seed
Expect to see Zion Williamson and Duke in the national title game on April 8.
to lose to a No. 16 seed — and Oregon is the type of team that the Cavaliers could slip up on. Meanwhile, sticking with the local teams is a fast way to bust your bracket. Think like an investor, not as a fan. Maryland is such a hard read and losing to Nebraska in the Big Ten Tournament was a disgrace. But the Terps have an easy route to the Sweet 16, with a First Four winner and a No. 3 LSU team with a suspended coach potentially standing in their way. That could set up a
meeting with Michigan State in D.C. with a dream matchup against Duke in the Elite Eight on the line. Of course, this is where the Terps will bow out. Ultimately, Maryland, Virginia Tech and Virginia will all exit in the Sweet 16. In the end, it will be Duke and North Carolina meeting for the fourth time this season and — like in the ACC semifinals — the Blue Devils will prevail.

On Monday, the Herndon, Va., native and undrafted college free agent signed a two-year, entry-level deal with his hometown team. “I mean, you grow up watching the Caps, you dream of playing for them,” Snively said. “It felt really great to sign a contract with the Capitals, but my goal is to play in an NHL game with them, and I’ve still got a lot of work to do before that.” Snively, 23, recorded 36 points (15 goals and 21 assists) in 33 games with Yale this season. The 5-foot-9, 180-pound forward led Yale in points in all four years he played there. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Terps motivated entering tourney No. 3-seeded Maryland ESPN leaks bracket to face No. 14 Radford An “unfortunate technical error” by ESPN resulted in the women’s NCAA at home on Saturday Tournament bracket being shown WOMEN’S BASKETBALL For just the second time since Maryland joined the Big Ten Conference five years ago, coach Brenda Frese’s women’s basketball team will enter the NCAA Tournament motivated by memories of a bad loss. The last time the Terps were on the court, against Iowa in the Big Ten Tournament championship game last Sunday, they ended the day in a morose locker room as the Hawkeyes celebrated a 90-76 win and their first league tournament title since 2001. A win in the first round of the NCAA Tournament would be the perfect palate cleanser. On Monday, Maryland (28-4) found out it is the No. 3 seed in the Albany Region and will open against No. 14 Radford at 11 a.m. Saturday (ESPN2). As top-four seed, the Terps will host the first two rounds of the NCAA Tournament in College Park. “I could see it when they walked off the court in the locker room: This team hates to lose,” Frese said after the loss to Iowa. “For us, it’s only our fourth loss.

that we’ve learned from all four of those losses and being ready for our last tournament.” The three teams that beat Maryland this season — Rutgers, Michigan State and Iowa (twice) — made the NCAA Tournament, with the Hawkeyes a No. 2 seed in the Greensboro Region. “Especially after this loss, it’s just going to give us motivation in practice going forward,” said Kaila Charles, the team’s leading scorer at 16.9 points. “I think we have a really well-rounded team with so many weapons.” Maryland and Radford (Big South champ at 26-6) are the only teams from D.C., Virginia or Maryland in this year’s field.

Giants GM backs Manning, defends Beckham trade
The Redskins have agreed to terms on a contract with wide receiver Brian Quick, his agency, SportsTrust Advisors, announced Monday. Quick returns to the Redskins after playing with them for parts of the past two seasons. Quick, 29, could be counted on to replace receiver Maurice Harris, who was not tendered a qualifying offer and signed with the Patriots. Washington also lost slot receiver Jamison Crowder, who signed with the Jets. The Redskins signed Quick as a free agent before the 2018 season. He has appeared in 17 games for them, making nine catches for 94 yards. (AP)
After a week of being beaten up in the media over the trade of star receiver Odell Beckham Jr., general manager Dave Gettleman went on the offensive, saying the trade was in the best interests of the Giants and was a deal the organization could not refuse. Gettleman didn’t stop there Monday, speaking for the first time since sending Beckham to the Browns last week in return for first- and third-round draft picks this year and safety Jabrill Peppers. The executive also defended quarterback Eli Manning, saying the belief the 38-year-old two-time Super Bowl MVP can’t play well anymore is a “crock.” (AP)

FOOD TRENDS
Three ‘new’ healthful food trends More ancient edibles are growing in popularity for the way they fit into today’s food landscape. Here are some of the latest to become trendy.
No eating, all drinking ‘Drunkorexia,’ an alcohol-related eating disorder, is a concern on college campuses HEALTH Many of us learn in college to drink alcohol on a full stomach, so you don’t get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of full-time college students ages 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harmreducing approaches important. Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a different practice: Rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol. This is a high-risk behavior colloquially called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism — a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming
alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia fills a need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mindset about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women. Tavis Glassman, professor of health education and public health at the University of Toledo in Ohio, researches drunkorexia and worries about the scenarios it can cause: “Alcohol hits quickly, and that brings up the same issues as with any high-risk drinking: getting home safely, unintentional injury, fights, blackouts, hangovers that affect class attendance and grades, and possibly ending up in emergency,” he says. From a medical point of view, Seattle-based registered dietitian Ginger Hultin points out that if alcohol is prioritized over food, it could result in nutrient deficiencies such as calcium, B vitamins, magnesium, fiber and protein.
If you see it, offer help Dietitian Ginger Hultin says parents, educators, school counselors and professionals can help identify drunkorexia in students, and adds that “if students see friends engaging in this type of behavior, they can intervene and encourage different choices or offer support or resources.” Help is always available. An on-campus medical or counseling center is a good place to start. C.R.
“Alcohol can negatively affect the liver or gastrointestinal system, it can interfere with sleep, lower the immune system and is linked to several types of cancers,” Hultin says. So why would a student choose this unhealthy pattern? It’s not a choice, but mental health and addiction issues mixed together. Studies show that having a preexisting eating disorder or alcoholism can be predictors. There are no national statistics

on the prevalence of campus drunkorexia, and surveys from colleges range widely: One report concluded that 34 percent of all students surveyed had engaged in this behavior; another said 81 percent of students who drink heavily had done so. Glassman and his colleagues are seeking to have drunkorexia — or “alcoholimia” — added as an official diagnosis in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, under Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorders. They hope for guidelines to help practitioners identify the condition in people who engage in high-risk drinking; are very concerned with their body shape; and engage in either laxative use, vomiting, weight control stimulants, meal skipping, food d restriction or excessive exercise. e. Adding drunkorexia to the DSM M would increase the likelihood d that a person could receive insurrance coverage for treatment. CARA RA

Kvass: Like kombucha, kvass is a fermented, fizzy beverage that can be a rich source of probiotics. Kvass is a tangy, savory, briny drink that is a staple in Russia. It’s traditionally made by fermenting bread with yeast, water and flavorings such as lemon and raisins; modern variations are made from beets. Freekeh: This grain is at the nexus of a few culinary trends: the movement toward whole grains, the appeal of all things smoky and the rising popularity of Mediterranean cuisines. Plus, it cooks quickly, so it works for those in a rush. Celtuce: Also known as celery lettuce, asparagus lettuce or Chinese lettuce, celtuce is a vegetable with a thick, crisp celery-like stem and lettuce-like leaves, both of which may be eaten raw or cooked.

Not just because I still want to take the trip, but because I don’t want to spend the wedding weekend having to explain why we are not together. I know it sounds bad, but is it really that bad? stringing along a partner — all because it will save you a few sentences of explanation while eating spring rolls at a cocktail hour? Why would chitchat with these acquaintances be a higher priority than authenticity, consideration and the emotional well-being of your partner? Now, it’d be different

[Your town’s history here] In the age of distraction, one small publisher keeps local stories alive in sepia tones
BOOKS In a novel called “Requiem for a Nun,” William Faulkner wrote, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” But Faulkner is dead, and nobody reads “Requiem for a Nun.” Which is just part of the problem. In this age of rising mobility, giddy gentrification and shrinking attention spans, historical amnesia spreads like an epidemic: It may be asymptomatic for years, but eventually it’s fatal to our respect for bygone days. For more than two decades, one small publisher far from New York has been quietly rescuing remnants of history from the flames of oblivion. You may have seen the trim, sepia-toned books from Arcadia Publishing or its imprint the History Press. From
12
an office in Mount Pleasant, S.C., Arcadia releases almost 500 new titles a year. They’re available in bookstores, but you’re more likely to have noticed them in history museums, diners, hardware stores and beauty parlors in small towns throughout America. Written neither for a general audience nor an academic one, each title is conceived with a fanatically specific market in mind. The subjects are surprisingly, delightfully precise. “Barberton Fried Chicken,” for instance, celebrates the tastiest meal in Barberton, Ohio. (It’s breaded, chilled and fried in lard.) Most of the books are named for cities, towns or even neighborhoods, such as “Federal Hill,” a history of Italians who settled in the port of Providence, R.I.
Arcadia’s business turns the traditional publishing model on its head. Big New York publishers are looking for the next blockbuster to sell 2 million copies across the English-speaking world in a month. Arcadia wants to find a book that will sell 1,000 copies this year in, say, McMullen Valley, Ariz. “It’s a unique publishing approach,” says Arcadia’s president and chief executive, David Steinberger. “The books are completely evergreen. Once you publish them, they sell forever.” Enter your hometown Zip code on the Arcadia website, and you’ll be offered a selection of books on the minutiae of your early life. Last year, two publishing heavyweights, Michael Lynton, the former CEO of Penguin, and
Steinberger, the former CEO of Perseus Books, along with a group of investors they organized, bought the press along with its 14,000-title backlist. And this week, Walter Isaacson, the best-selling biographer, is joining as an editor-at-large and senior adviser. He is the first big-name author to get involved with Arcadia, but that won’t change its small-town focus. “It’s important for people to know not only world history but the history of their communities, especially the inspiring things in their community,” Isaacson says. “At a certain point, you’ve really got to focus on your roots and home, and especially during troubled times, there’s a stability that comes from being connected.” RON CHARLES (THE WASHINGTON POST)
MYSPACE DELETES YOUR MEMORIES
The number of years worth of data that Myspace deleted from its servers, according to the BBC. ”As a result of a server migration project, any photos, videos, and audio files you uploaded more than three years ago may no longer be available on or from Myspace,” the pioneering social network said in a statement. Any music, photos or videos uploaded prior to 2015 may be lost forever. Myspace had hosted 53 million songs, according to Pitchfork. (EXPRESS) “Bird Box” novel sequel “Malorie” due Oct. 1

Surf rocker Dale shredded until the very end 1937-2019 Dick Dale, whose pounding, blaringly loud power-chord instrumentals on songs like “Miserlou” and “Let’s Go Trippin’” earned him the title King of the Surf Guitar, died Saturday at age 81. No other details were available. Dale — born Richard Anthony Monsour in Boston in 1937 — liked to say it was he and not the Beach Boys who invented surf music. An avid surfer, Dale built a devoted Los Angeles fan base in the late 1950s. His picking style — played on a custommade Fender Stratocaster — was so frenetic that he shredded guitar picks during songs, which forced him to stash spares on his guitar’s body. “Better shred than dead,” he liked to joke. Dale said he developed his musical style by merging the sounds of the crashing ocean waves he heard while surfing with melodies inspired by the rockabilly music he loved. Dale might have remained just a cult figure if surfing had not exploded in popularity during his peak creative years. His star dimmed after The Beatles led music’s British invasion of the pop charts in 1964 and his record label dropped him. Dale continued to tour into his 80s, in part, he said, to pay the medical bills that advancing age was saddling him with. Having beaten cancer in the 1960s, he suffered a serious recurrence in 2015.

trending “Honestly I am so choked up. This is bravery. This is heroism. This is what so many of us hope we could do if we found ourselves in such a terrible situation.” @KARORIBEE, praising Abdul Aziz, who threw a credit card machine and empty shotgun at the Christchurch, New Zealand, gunman. When Aziz saw a man walking toward the Linwood Mosque with guns, he ran toward him as a distraction. Aziz’s tactics caused the gunman to drive off, avoiding a larger tragedy. Aziz said, “My only concern was to help other people.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You may be the victim of an unintentional act of deception today. Once you get back on track, you can demonstrate a willingness to let it go. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) It’ll do you some good to revisit an issue to which you are no stranger, but which others know less about than you do.
