An 83-year-old man was arrested in East Meadow, N.Y., this week after leaving a hospital and allegedly stealing an ambulance. Police said the man was upset with the care he was receiving and checked himself out of Nassau University Medical Center at 1 a.m. Tuesday. They said he then went to the parking lot and stole an ambulance (the keys were in the ignition). Police found him at a nearby 7-Eleven. (AP)

Officials said a man mistakenly sent a text Nov. 2 to a prosecutor in Luzerne County, Pa., indicating that he wanted to trade pot for heroin. Any doubt about what he intended vanished when the prosecutor later received a photo of a plastic bag containing a green substance on a scale. John Raimondo, 29, of Plymouth, was arrested at the site of the proposed drug swap. Police were looking for him Tuesday after he missed a court date. (AP)

No pup for this president? $1M LUCKY SCRATCH

… if you treat them well

THE DISTRICT There’s no shortage of reasons to include dogs in your life: They love you no matter what. They help you stay active and less stressed. And, if you happen to be the president, they might even boost your approval ratings. But after two months in the White House, President Trump seems unpersuaded. The 45th president appears poised to become the first in over a century to not have a dog — or any pet, for that matter — in the White House. Trump doesn’t appear to have the highest regard for man’s best friend. In fact, one of his go-to insults is comparing someone to a dog: Ted Cruz was “choking like a dog.” Marco Rubio was “sweating like a dog.” David Gregory, Bill Maher, Glenn Beck, Chuck Todd, Mark Cuban — all of them, Trump declared in various tweets and speeches, had been or should be fired “like a dog.” There’s no sign that Trump’s position on dog ownership is likely to change. Asked for comment, the White House said only

that there was no announcement to make. But political history offers some compelling reasons he should reconsider.

Dogs bring good press … Long before Watergate, Richard Nixon’s career got a big boost from a little pup. In a televised 1952 address, Nixon — then running for vice president on Dwight Eisenhower’s ticket — denied allegations he had used campaign contributions to cover personal expenses. But he did acknowledge

accepting one particular gift: “It was a little cocker spaniel dog … black and white, spotted, and our little girl Tricia, the 6-year-old, named it Checkers,” he said. “And you know, the kids, like all kids, loved the dog, and I just want to say this, right now, that regardless of what they say about it, we are going to keep it.” It was a pivotal moment. With help from a four-legged friend, Nixon had made himself relatable and sympathetic to the American public. (For a while, at least.)

Local news that’s…well, slightly askew.

Many may recall Seamus Romney, the late Irish setter who received media coverage during the 2012 presidential race because of the old story of how he got sick while spending 12 hours in a crate strapped to the roof of Mitt Romney’s family car on a 1983 road trip. It spun into a full-blown debate over canine safety, complete with a protest group calling itself Dogs Against Romney. (In fairness, not all dogs are so sympathetic. Sunny Obama was implicated in the reported tackling of a visiting toddler.)

The Giant grocery store got $10,000 for selling the winning ticket. Her friend won $12. (TWP)

Lawyer: Client innocent in alleged Rockville rape ROCKVILLE Henry Sanchez Milian, one of two suspects charged in the rape of a 14-year-old girl in a bathroom at a Maryland high school, did not do what he is accused of, his defense attorney said Wednesday. “Based on everything we know, we think he’s innocent,” said Andrew Jezic, who has been retained by Sanchez Milian’s family. “This appears to have been a consensual encounter.” Jezic said his 18-year-old client is confident he will be exonerated. An arrest warrant filed against Sanchez Milian — as well as a similar warrant against a

co-defendant, Jose Montano, 17, who has been charged as an adult — describes a brutal series of sexual assaults inside a bathroom stall at Rockville High School on Thursday by the suspects, both ninth-graders at the school. Montano pushed the girl into a boys’ bathroom and pulled her into a stall as she tried to resist by grabbing a sink, according to the affidavits. Sanchez Milian then entered the stall, according to the affidavit, and the two took turns raping the girl, according to the affidavits, as she cried out in pain and repeatedly told them to stop. “This was a brutal attack,”

Police have said they have no evidence the suspects are associated with gangs and that they have no past criminal offenses in the county. DAN MORSE

The National Park Service says Washington’s famous cherry trees are blooming again after a killing frost. National Park Service spokesman Mike Litterst said Wednesday that the bloom period has begun and can last two weeks. He said officials expect the trees will reach peak bloom this weekend. Officials announced last Friday that cold weather had killed half of the blossoms on Washington’s famous cherry trees just as they were reaching peak bloom. Litterst said that 70 percent of the remaining blooms are now at a stage just before “full bloom.” Litterst said expected cold weather today means the blooms won’t develop further today. Warmer temperatures needed for the blossoms’ development are expected Friday and Saturday. (AP)

Nunes: Trump’s team ‘incidentally’ monitored

ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE

Test projects likeliest age to develop illness

POLITICS House Intelligence Committee Chair Devin Nunes went to the White House on Wednesday afternoon to brief President Trump about intelligence he says he has seen regarding surveillance of foreign nationals during the presidential transition. The surveillance could have inadvertently picked up the president or members of his transition team, the chairman said. “What I’ve read seems to me to be some level of surveillance activity, perhaps legal. I don’t know that it’s right,” Nunes told reporters. “I don’t know that the American people would be comfortable with what I’ve read. “The president needs to know these intelligence reports are out there,” added Nunes, R-Calif. “I think the president is concerned, and he should be.” The president was asked if he felt vindicated after Nunes’ visit regarding Trump’s claims that during the campaign he was wiretapped at Trump Tower by the Obama administration. “I somewhat do. I must tell you I somewhat do,” Trump said. “I very much appreciated the fact that they found what they found.” T he w i ret appi ng cl a i m has been roundly rejected by members of the intelligence

community and even Nunes himself. Before heading to the White House, Nunes said he briefed House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., on what he learned, and spoke with reporters. Nunes stated that Trump and other staff had communications that probably were intercepted by U.S. intelligence in the period between Trump’s election and his inauguration through “incidental collection,” or court-approved surveillance of the communications of foreign nationals who may be in contact with or talking about U.S. citizens. Nunes did not brief his ranking member, Rep. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., about the contents of what Schiff said were intercepts. Schiff said that he now has a

“profound doubt” about whether the Intelligence Committee can conduct a credible investigation. He contended that Nunes’ actions in informing the White House before speaking to colleagues are proof that an independent commission should be formed to investigate Russia’s alleged interference in the 2016 election and possible ties between Trump associates and Russian officials. “You don’t take information that the committee hasn’t seen and present it orally to the press and the White House before the committee has even had a chance to vet whether it’s significant,” Schiff said. “It casts quite a profound cloud over our ability to do our work.” KAROUN DEMIRJIAN

Scientists have developed a test based on 31 genetic markers that can calculate the age a person is likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease, according to new research published in Plos Medicine. Those who got a score in the top 10 percent on the test were more than three times as likely to develop the disease, and did so at least 10 years before those who scored in the lowest 10 percent, the study found, according to The Guardian. The study used data from 70,000 Alzheimer’s patients and healthy elderly people. The research, led by Rahul Desikan of the University of California, shows that ApoE, a gene known to have a powerful influence on the risk of developing Alzheimer’s, is not the only gene that can increase risk.

White House: Trump to attend NATO meeting in May after reports that Tillerson plans to skip key NATO meeting next month

Secret Service sought 1-year bump of $60M POLITICS The U.S. Secret Service requested $60 million in additional funding for the next year, offering the most precise estimate yet of the escalating costs for travel and protection resulting from the unusually complicated lifestyle of the Trump family, according to internal agency documents. Nearly half the additional money, $26.8 million, would pay to protect President Trump’s family and home in New York’s Trump Tower, the documents show, while $33 million would be spent on travel costs incurred by “the president, vice president and other visiting heads of state.” The documents, part of the Secret Service’s request for the fiscal 2018 budget, reflect the costly surprise facing Secret Service agents tasked with guarding the president’s far-flung family, accommodating their travel schedules — including visits to his South Florida mansion — and fortifying the Manhattan penthouse. Documents reviewed by The Post did not show how the new budget requests compare to the funding needs for past presidents. A person familiar with internal Secret Service budget discussions said the requests for additional funding, prepared last month, were rejected by the Office of Management and Budget. That means the agency will likely have to divert other spending to handle the additional burden. DREW HARWELL AND AMY BRITTAIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Fighters airlifted to Raqqa U.S. transport begins as Pentagon probes strike that killed 33 civilians SYRIA U.S. aircraft ferried Syrian Kurdish fighters and allied forces behind Islamic State lines Wednesday to spearhead an assault on a strategic town belonging to the extremist group outside its de facto capital, Raqqa, the Pentagon said. It marked the first time U.S. forces have provided airlift for local forces on a combat operation in Syria.

The airlift was part of what Pentagon spokesman Eric Pahon described as a large, highpriority offensive to secure the area around Tabqa and the associated Tabqa Dam on the Euphrates River. If successful, the operation would “basically cut ISIS off” from the western approaches to Raqqa, Pahon said. The U.S.-backed, Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces said their fighters seized four villages south of the Euphrates and cut the main artery between Raqqa and northwestern Syria.

Also Wednesday, the U.S.-led coalition against ISIS said it was looking into reports that a U.S.led coalition aircraft may have struck a shelter for the displaced in the ISIS-held village of Mansoura, west of Raqqa. Syrian activists said Wednesday that at least 33 bodies had been pulled from the rubble at the school, which activists said had been used to house at least 50 families fleeing violence elsewhere in the country. It was not immediately clear who carried out the airstrike. PHILIP ISSA AND ROBERT BURNS (AP)

U.S. calls on allies to do more in fight against ISIS

North Korea’s latest missile launch ended in failure Wednesday, officials said. Meanwhile, the United States sent a supersonic bomber streaking over ally South Korea in a show of force against the North. The reported launch failure comes as the North angrily reacts to ongoing annual U.S.-South Korean military drills that it views as an invasion rehearsal. The American military detected what it assessed as a failed North Korean missile launch Wednesday morning, the U.S. Pacific Command said in a statement. It said the missile “appears to have exploded within seconds of launch.” (AP)

A unanimous Supreme Court on Wednesday bolstered the rights of millions of learning-disabled students in a ruling that requires public schools to offer special education programs that meet higher standards. The court struck down a lower standard endorsed by President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, Neil Gorsuch. Chief Justice John Roberts said that it is not enough for school districts to have minimal instruction for special needs children, and that programs must be designed to let students make progress. The case helps clarify the scope of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. (AP)

The Trump administration on Wednesday said that destroying the Islamic State is its top priority in the Middle East, and urged coalition partners in the ISIS fight to contribute more. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson addressed the top diplomats of the 68-nation coalition at the State Department in Washington, calling for new ideas to expand the fight against ISIS in the Iraqi city of Mosul and accelerate the campaign to chase militants from Raqqa, Syria, while preparing for the complex humanitarian and political consequences of both efforts. There was no apparent announcement of a new overall strategy, however. (AP)

POLITICS President Trump’s former campaign chairman, Paul Manafort, secretly worked for a Russian billionaire to advance the interests of Vladimir Putin a decade ago and proposed an ambitious political strategy to undermine anti-Russian opposition, The Associated Press has learned. On Wednesday, the White House acknowledged that AP’s revelations had “started to catch a lot of buzz” but brushed them aside, although some members of Congress expressed alarm. Manafort’s activities appeared to contradict previous assertions by the Trump administration and Manafort that he never worked for Russian interests. Manafort proposed in confidential strategy plans as early as June 2005 that he would influence politics, business dealings and news coverage inside the U.S., Europe and the former Soviet republics to benefit the Putin government, even as U.S.-Russia relations under Republican President George W. Bush grew worse. Manafort pitched the plans to Russian aluminum magnate Oleg Deripaska, a close Putin ally with whom he eventually signed a $10 million annual contract beginning in 2006, according to interviews and business records. Manafort and Deripaska maintained a business relationship until at least 2009, according to one person familiar with the work.

Deadly attack stuns UK Police officer, 3 civilians, assailant killed in SUV and knife assault outside Parliament LONDON A knife-wielding man went on a deadly rampage in the heart of London on Wednesday, plowing an SUV into pedestrians on the Westminster Bridge before stabbing a police officer to death inside the gates of Parliament. Five people were killed, including the assailant, and about 40 others were injured in what Prime Minister Theresa May condemned as a “sick and depraved terrorist attack.” Lawmakers, lords, staff and visitors were locked down after the man was shot by police within the perimeter of Parliament, just yards from entrances to the building itself. He died, as did three others, and the police officer, identified as Keith Palmer, 48. A doctor who treated the wounded from the bridge said some had “catastrophic” injuries. Three police officers, several French teenagers on a school trip and two Romanian tourists were

among the casualties. Police said they were treating the attack as terrorism. There was no immediate claim of responsibility. Metropolitan Police counterterrorism chief Mark Rowley said police think they know the identity of the assailant but would not reveal details. He said Islamic extremism is suspected. Rowley said extra armed police would be on the streets in the coming days to reassure the public, and hundreds of police officers are working on the case. The threat level for international terrorism in the U.K. was already listed at severe, meaning an attack was “highly likely.” May said that level would not change. She said attempts to defeat British values of democracy through terrorism would fail. “Tomorrow morning, Parliament will meet as normal,” she said. Londoners and visitors “will all move forward together, never giving in to terror and never

Ripe for more madness

As the pressure to perform cranks up another notch in the Sweet 16, these three underclassmen will attempt to maintain the momentum they created in the second round. GABE HIATT (EXPRESS)

The Sweet 16 starts today in the men’s tournament, and upsets this far in are typically few and far between. Since 1985, top-three seeds have a 180-77 record (70 percent win rate) in the regional semifinals. That increases to 52-10 (83.9 percent win rate) when the opponent is a No. 7 seed or worse. But we could see more upsets than normal this year. Today’s games all feature an underdog with at least a 35 percent chance of winning, according to analytics expert Ken Pomeroy’s ratings (KP). ESPN’s Basketball Power Index (BPI) gives each underdog at least a 29 percent chance to win. That sounds like a recipe for more madness. NEIL GREENBERG (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Chance of a Xavier upset: KP: 35 percent; BPI: 29 percent

Why it could happen: Extra possessions are key in upsets. Against Louisville, senior guard Derrick Walton Jr. and Michigan forced 11 turnovers and surrendered only six, stifling the Cardinals’ rhythm in their half-court sets. The Ducks have thrived with open looks off catchand-shoot attempts, but that shouldn’t last much longer. Oregon has taken 24 of 32 (75 percent) catch-and-shoot opportunities unguarded, per Synergy Sports, scoring 1.08 points per shot. Michigan has given up just six of 22 (27 percent) catch-and-shoot attempts without a defender near the shooter.

Why it could happen: The Boilermakers have three players over 6-foot-7 — Isaac Haas (7-2), Vincent Edwards (6-8) and Caleb Swanigan (6-9). That allows them to dominate the paint (61.5 percent shooting near the rim) and control the boards. Purdue allows an offensive rebounding percentage of 24.1 percent, the eighth-best mark in the country. Swanigan leads the nation with 28 double-doubles this season. He’s reliable in the post and on the perimeter, drilling 43.2 percent of his 3-point attempts with a 57 percent effective field goal percentage, which places more value on makes beyond the arc.

Why it could happen: Jevon Carter (2.5 steals per game) and the Mountaineers lead the country in turnovers forced (27.7 percent) and are third in steals (14 percent), holding opponents to 0.67 points per possession on 38.6 percent shooting when applying coach Bob Huggins’ ball-hawking defense. But this is far from a one-dimensional team. West Virginia scored 117.4 points per 100 possessions after adjusting for strength of schedule, which ranks 25th nationally. The team plays with good ball movement, racking up the seventh-most assists in the country (600) with few mistakes (16.9 percent turnover rate, 64th).

Why it could happen: Xavier’s offense is almost as good as Arizona’s (116.2 vs. 118.7 points per 100 possessions), and if the Musketeers can continue their hot 3-point shooting, that gap could close. In Arizona’s losses this year, its opponents have shot 42.5 percent on 3-pointers, compared to only 29.3 percent in wins. Xavier hit 34.9 percent of its 3-point attempts during the regular season but has connected on 20 of 40 in the tournament. Junior guard Trevon Bluiett leads the team with 8-of-15 shooting from beyond the arc and sophomore reserve Kaiser Gates has gone 7 for 11. Both will be key in any upset hopes by Xavier.

‘It’s the stupidest thing ever’ CAPITALS As the season winds down with roughly 10 games remaining, one the most fascinating playoff races to watch will involve three teams that have already clinched postseason berths. Washington, Pittsburgh and Columbus are separated by just two points atop the league standings, and because they’re all in the Metropolitan Division, one is guaranteed to be eliminated in the first round of the playoffs. “Stupid,” Capitals forward Daniel Winnik said. “It’s the stupidest thing ever.” With captain Alex Ovechkin, Washington has faced frequent criticism for repeatedly failing to advance beyond the second round of the playoffs and into the Eastern Conference finals, and although this may be the best Capitals team that has surrounded Ovechkin, the path to the third round will be harder than ever. The NHL’s current format grants playoff berths to the top three teams from each division and two wild cards from each conference. The Capitals, Penguins and Blue Jackets have the NHL’s three best records, but the two teams that fall short of that top spot in the Metropolitan Division will have to battle each other in the first round despite finishing with more points than any team from the Atlantic.

NHL playoff format ensures first-round exit for one of top 3 teams

Either Alex Ovechkin and the Capitals, Sidney Crosby and the Penguins or Cam Atkinson and the Blue Jackets will be eliminated in the first round.

That places a greater emphasis on securing first place and avoiding a first-round matchup that could be more competitive than the conference final. In the NHL’s “group of death” division, Washington’s home game against Columbus tonight (7, CSN) will have significant ramifications.

The NHL moved to the current format four years ago after the most recent lockout, intending to emphasize division rivalries. But the format has drawn the most criticism for what’s seen as an insufficient reward for finishing first in the conference. In the case of the Capitals last

season, they had the best regular-season record, but because teams that finish in the top three of a division play each other in the first two rounds, Washington was forced to face the Eastern Conference’s second-best team, Pittsburgh, in the second round. This season, the Rangers seem likely to finish in fourth place in the Metropolitan Division and land the first wild-card spot, meaning they’ll play the top Atlantic team. Though New York would be the lower-seeded team, it has more points (94) than projected opponent Montreal (91). The Rangers have been the fourth-best team in their division, but they could have an easier path to the conference final. As it stood Wednesday afternoon, Washington would face Toronto in the first round for the right to play the winner of a Pittsburgh-Columbus series. Capitals defenseman Brooks Orpik said players were largely against the format when it was being collectively bargained four years ago, but they knew they would have to give up something else if they wanted to change it. The format runs through 201819, but Washington general manager Brian MacLellan said this year’s cluster atop the Metropolitan Division should serve as an impetus for a discussion about changing it. “I think the incentive should be the higher team gets the easier path ... and that’s not the way it is now.” ISABELLE KHURSHUDYAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Hitting 95 mph on his fastball, he allowed five hits and two runs over 4⅔ innings. Scherzer won’t be ready to start on opening day but is unlikely to miss a turn through the rotation. (TWP)

Suspected thief sought selfies and autographs NFL The Mexican media executive suspected of stealing Tom Brady’s jersey went to the Super Bowl as a journalist but spent the week collecting selfies and autographs from football greats and boasting he was there as a fan. Martin Mauricio Ortega, the former director of the tabloid La Prensa, brought multiple pieces of NFL memorabilia, including a Kurt Warner jersey he hoped to sell to the former quarterback, said Arturo Palafox, sports editor of the Mexican newspaper 24 Horas. Ortega told Palafox he wasn’t in Houston to work, and the suspect used his media access to take selfies with players, including one with Brady. Brady’s jersey went missing from the Patriots’ locker room after the game, setting off an investigation that stretched from Boston to the border. Working with U.S. investigators, Mexican authorities obtained a search warrant and recovered the jersey March 12, along with another Brady jersey that disappeared after the 2015 Super Bowl. A helmet belonging to a Broncos player was also discovered, according to the NFL. A Mexican government official confirmed that the warrant targeted Ortega, the search was at his home and an agreement was in place for an unspecified victim in the U.S. not to press charges in exchange for the jersey’s return.

Big Hunt Opening Showcase: Joyce hosts the festival’s first show at his main venue: The Big Hunt’s satanic-themed basement bar. He’s excited for New York’s Casey James Salengo, who just nabbed a Comedy Central special and recently launched the podcast “We’ve Never Seen ‘The Wire’ ” with fellow festival performer Eli Yudin. “Casey is kind of loud and excitable,” Joyce says. “He’s very gentle-seeming and then he gets loud — in a very funny way.” Also on the bill is Jordan Temple, who writes for the socially minded MTV News show “Decoded.” “He stopped by Big Hunt when he was in town a few months ago and really did great,” Joyce says.

Big Hunt Showcase: Though he’s not billed as such, Joyce says Jason Weems is essentially headlining this showcase, and for good reason. “I think that he’s the best comic in the area,” Joyce says of the Baltimorebased “Last Comic Standing” competitor. “He’s just a killer — crushes every time, no matter the environment.”

Even seeing the same hour multiple times, there’s still spontaneity and there’s something about his performance that changes that makes it interesting. He’s got great jokes, but even without the jokes it’s just fun to watch him.”

Big Apple comics List, Lynch and Hanley are regulars at the club, and often perform on the same shows. “They have styles that work well together,” Joyce says. “Phil is super-smart. He does a lot of interaction with the crowd.” Lynch was recently on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” and, according to Joyce, is a “pure joke writer.

If these walls could heal …

This large-scale model, which was displayed at the 1904 World’s Fair in St. Louis, was built to show off St. Elizabeths’ then state-of-the-art campus.

hospital, St. Elizabeths was built to treat D.C. residents and members of the Army and Navy. The original building, which still stands, consists of a central tower flanked by two long corridors that zigzag back in order to provide ventilation and light. Patients lived in simply furnished rooms and were often taken outside for recreation or to work on the on-campus farm. Fresh air and exercise failed to provide the cure Nichols had hoped for, though, and St. Elizabeths became overcrowded as patients settled in for long-term care. That problem intensified after the Civil War, when veterans suffering from what we’d now call alcoholism and PTSD swelled the hospital’s population.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS ADMINISTRATION

EXHIBITS When the Government Hospital for the Insane opened in Anacostia in 1855, the asylum’s supervising physician, Charles Nichols, predicted that 50 percent of the mentally ill people treated there would make a full recovery. What made him so confident? The building. He’d designed it in accordance with the most cutting-edge theories of the day, which called for sunny, well-ventilated asylums in the countryside. “They idealistically thought the right kind of building in the right kind of place could cure people,” says Sarah Leavitt, curator of “Architecture of an Asylum: St. Elizabeths, 18522017,” an exhibit opening at the National Building Museum on Saturday. “It turns out that’s not true. You can’t fix brain chemistry with architecture.” The exhibit traces evolving theories about mental health care through the changing architecture of the asylum, which was renamed St. Elizabeths in 1916 and grew to include upward of 100 buildings, about 75 of which now stand empty on a bluff overlooking the Anacostia River. The exhibit includes furniture from the asylum, historical photos and architectural plans, and a huge scale model of the campus that was made to showcase the then state-of-the-art facility at the 1904 World’s Fair. “St. Elizabeths is part of a bigger story about the infrastructures that America built to take care of mental health patients in the mid- to late 19th century, when we led the world in building such structures,” Leavitt says, “and the story of how, over the last 50 years, we’ve abandoned or destroyed it all.” The first federal mental

Theories about mental illness helped shape a sprawling asylum in D.C.

Patients in this porch at St. Elizabeths got plenty of light and bucolic views.

The superintendent who took over in 1877, William Godding, believed patients would do better in smaller, cottage-like buildings,

so he had more buildings constructed. Scattering patients around the campus turned out to be inefficient, however, so

Godding and his successors returned to building large structures. They also became less interested in architecture and more interested in science as a source for cures. Superintendent Alonzo Richardson, appointed in 1899, expanded the hospital’s autopsy and research programs and created a nursing school. “At the turn of the century, St. Elizabeths had some of the best and most impressive research labs into neuropathology and mental illness in the world,” Leavitt says. Veterans from the two world wars further swelled the population at St. Elizabeths. At its peak in the 1960s, the massive hospital complex spidered across some 350 acres and housed nearly 8,000 patients, Leavitt

On the east campus there are about 25 old buildings, plus a new one: Built in 2010, the new St. Elizabeths is a mental hospital operated by the District. Leavitt says she hopes people leave the Building Museum exhibit with a better sense of D.C. history and the state of mental health care in America: “The question I want people to ask is, ‘What should we do with these parcels of land, and what can we do for the mental health patients that still need help?’ ”

says. Then, a series of events started emptying the hospital, beginning with the creation of the Veterans Administration in 1930, which transferred mentally ill vets to a system of VA hospitals. “In ’63 [President John F.] Kennedy signs a bill that’s going to restrict money from huge hospitals and funnel money into smaller community health centers, most of which were never built,” Leavitt says. “A lot of patients left these hospitals and had nowhere to go. Funding decreased even more under [President Ronald] Reagan in the ’80s, and buildings at St. Elizabeths and elsewhere were being emptied out and stood abandoned for decades.” If you visit the west campus of St. Elizabeths today, you’ll find

They’ve still got the look A traveling exhibit recalls the cutting-edge designs and cultural significance of Ebony’s Fashion Fair EXHIBITS When Ebony magazine’s annual Fashion Fair would roll into town, you could be among beautiful black and brown people, experience world-class glamour, and relish the spectacle of cutting-edge fashion — and that was just in the line to get in. “[There was] dancing, music and lots of flair,” says Camille Ann Brewer, curator of contemporary textile art for George Washington University Museum and the Textile Museum, which is hosting the traveling exhibition “Inspiring Beauty: 50 Years of Ebony Fashion Fair.” “The [fair] was a call and response with the audience,” she adds. “It wasn’t just the presentation of fashion. It was a cultural event.” Ebony’s fair, which toured the nation from 1958 to 2009, brought the latest in contemporary fashion to black communities. (Nearly all of the fair’s proceeds went to local charities, which received more than $50 million during the event’s fivedecade run.) Produced by the late Eunice W. Johnson and her late husband, Ebony founder John H. Johnson, the fashion show was an opportunity “to be gregarious and over-the-top,” says Brewer, who attended the fair for the first time in the ’80s and adds that D.C. was always a major stop. Claudia Watts, a management analyst for the Anacostia Community Museum, which is collaborating on the exhibit,

remembers going to the fair as a teen during one of its last stops at the Kennedy Center. (The event ended in 2009 due to financial issues. Eunice Johnson died a few months later.) “I’d been to fashion shows, but I’d never been to anything like that,” Watts says. “It was bright and bold. It was phenomenal.” “Inspiring Beauty,” which opened in Chicago in 2013 and has been traveling the country since 2014, pays tribute by showcasing extravagant ensembles or ig i na l ly modeled at Fashion Fairs from such designers as Yves Saint Laurent, Alexander McQueen and Vivienne We s t w o o d , a l o n g s i d e memorabilia, videos and photographs. Expect “lots of fur, lots of color, lots of dazzle,” Brewer says. KAY WICKER (FOR EXPRESS) George Washington University Museum and Textile Museum, 701 21st St. NW; through July 24, $8 suggested donation.

Givenchy by Alexander McQueen, from Fashion Fair 1997-98 For each Fashion Fair, Eunice W. Johnson chose garments for their craftsmanship as well as their beauty. The late McQueen created this silver masterpiece while working as head designer at Givenchy from 1996 to 2001. “The construction of the cloth lends itself to the drape and the beauty of the garment,” says curator Camille Ann Brewer, who is also a weaver. “You can really see the construction, the over and under of the thread.” Despite McQueen’s tumultuous tenure with Givenchy, his work there was met with great critical acclaim.

‘I Love Fashion Scandal’ by Patrick Kelly, from Fashion Fair 1986 The late Kelly was the quintessential ’80s designer, known for brightly colored, body-conscious dresses with outrageous designs. This button-embellished gown coyly evoked the minstrel tradition. The inclusion of Kelly, an openly gay black man, in the show emphasized Johnson’s mission of freedom through creativity. “The show on so many levels provided a level of freedom of expression for people,” Brewer says. “You could be free to be different. You could be free to be you.”

Eunice W. Johnson at work, 1970

Evening dress, ready-to-wear by Stephen Burrows, from Fashion Fair 2007

The exhibition, which opened last week, features plenty of pieces of Johnson ephemera, including this photograph of her at work. The fair was one of her projects when she worked as Ebony’s fashion editor. Her entrepreneurial spirit led her to create the Fashion Fair cosmetics line, still in stores today. “She had a difficult time finding cosmetics for her models because [makeup companies] didn’t sell the whole cosmetic line for darker skin tones,” Brewer says. “Many Asian women bought Fashion Fair too, because CoverGirl and other brands were too pink. [Fashion Fair] had this market for years, probably until the ’80s.”

Fashion Fair was as much a celebration of black culture as it was of fashion. It was important that everyone Johnson worked with, from the models to the musicians, was black. While she strived to bring the latest from the world’s top designers to her black audiences, she also did her best to work with black American designers like Burrows, who made a name for himself during the disco days of the ’70s. This piece, featured in one of the final fairs, blends the sleek, minimalistic trends of the early 2000s with what Burrows — a fixture at Studio 54 — does best: evening wear.

Here’s where to get stuffed What is a dumpling? The answer isn’t so simple. Wontons? Sure. Ravioli? Feels wrong. Empanadas? No way. Here are some basic parameters: Dumplings must be stuffed. They can be steamed, boiled or pan-fried, not baked or deep-fried. They’re usually dipped in a sauce. In the end, it’s a gut feeling. You know a dumpling when you see one, and here you’ll discover some of the best varieties in town, which are as diverse as they are delicious.

At Penn Quarter’s China Chilcano, which explores the intersection of Chinese and Peruvian cuisines, these traditional Chinese dumplings are given some Peruvian flair: Dabs of aji amarillo sauce made with yellow South American peppers top the tender dumplings, filled with chicken, scallion and cloud-ear mushrooms. Steamed to order and served in a bamboo basket, they get an extra flavor boost from the accompanying dipping sauce of black vinegar and chicha de jora, a South American beverage made from maize.

Don’t skip straight to the ramen at Bantam King, the Chinatown chicken-soup restaurant from the team behind Daikaya. Add an order of chicken sui gyoza, four delicate boiled dumplings, to kick-start your meal. What makes these purses of poultry so special is the sauce, composed of Chinese vinegar, soy sauce, roasted chicken reduction, chili oil and — a twist! — butter, which makes for a satisfyingly rich dunk. A bit of cilantro on top adds some freshness. Pro tip: These chicken dumplings play well with the house sake.

There are satisfactory pelmeni from the frozen section of Eastern European grocery stores, and then there are the pelmeni served up at Samovar: Velvety and rich, these Siberian dumplings are made from an egg-enriched dough and filled with juicy veal. (If the shape reminds you of a body part, it’s no accident: Their name comes from the Finno-Ugric term pel’nyan, meaning “ear bread.”) Each order comes with a little dish of homemade sour cream that enhances the dish’s richness.

Pan-fried soup dumplings

$19; Mari Vanna, 1141 Connecticut Ave. NW

$16; Fare Well, 406 H St. NE

Khinkali, hailing from Georgia, are almost too cute to eat. At Mari Vanna in Dupont Circle, the delicately folded dumplings are filled with lightly spiced beef and onion, then served simply with a garnish of ground pepper. Word to the wise: Don’t eat the intentionally tough topknot — they’re meant to be a handle by which you pick up the dumpling, sans fork and knife. (They’re also a reminder of how many you’ve managed to eat.)

Who knew pierogi would be better when they’re plant-based? Fare Well offers a version of the Central and Eastern European dumplings filled with a mixture of potato, onion and garlic and housed in a simple flour-water-oil dough. Four plump pierogi are served with “sour cream” (made from tofu), sauerkraut and a seasonal vegetable. Even omnivores will be pleased by their buttery, creamy, comforting richness.

Weekends bring Shanghai Taste’s celebrated pan-fried soup dumplings, each bundle surrounded by a delicately fried skin and a soft shell. One bite, and you’ll understand why the line often snakes out the door. There during the week? The traditional pork soup dumplings (non-fried, that is) not only have tender meat, but they also pack a welcome punch of savory goodness, thanks to the flavorful soup filling.

Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra Kayaks, skis and mountain bikes are common features on the rooftops of Boulder automobiles. Colorado’s mile-high mecca for foodies, artists, and outdoor adventurers is ranked among the most educated cities in the United States, but lifestyle is its main draw. Home to some 100,000 residents, this Rocky Mountain enclave offers sanctuary to thrill seekers, free spirits, and nature lovers. That’s why you’ll find the unlikely language, “Please bring strap-on traction (e.g., yak tracks, micro-spikes)” on the website of the Boulder Philharmonic Orchestra. From guided musical hikes to trail-side concerts, the Boulder Phil is redefining the boundaries of the symphony orchestra. Reflecting Boulder’s culture and values is central to its mission—tapping into the Boulderite quest for knowledge, creative expression, and a profound love of nature and the outdoors. The Boulder Phil’s commitment to the local culture does not end with a few bird calls played within the texture of a classical symphony; this orchestra strives to meet its neighbors head on, matching their vigor and addiction to adventure.

North Carolina Symphony It was The Great Depression—that’s when the North Carolina Symphony began to play. Around 50 musicians traveled from town to town, giving concerts to distressed communities. So profound was their ability to lift the spirits of the people, the state’s General Assembly passed the 1943 “Horn Tootin’ Bill,” establishing the NCS as the ﬁrst state-funded orchestra in the country. It remains a state-wide operation to this day. Logging some 18,000 miles per year, the Raleigh-based North Carolina Symphony casts a broad net, reaching from the Outer Banks to the Appalachian Mountains. It is a diverse audience: the high-tech Research Triangle continues to fuel population growth in the urban center, while many smaller communities retain a more traditional character. That’s why you’ll ﬁnd members of the NCS performing in a trendy garden-to-table cafe on one night, and a steak house the next. An integral part of the state’s music curriculum, the NCS saves its biggest gift for the smallest listeners: about a third of its concerts are for school kids—and after seven decades, it’s an experience shared by nearly every native North Carolinian.

Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Atlanta has a long history of reinventing itself. This southern metropolis became the ‘cradle of the civil rights movement’ in the 1960s, and is now a hub for the ﬁlm and television industry. People are moving there. Since 1980, the Georgia state capital’s population has more than doubled. This is a city about contrasts: It is headquarters to numerous Fortune 500 companies, and is the ‘epicenter for black glitterati.’ Its vibrant and distinctive neighborhoods vary by the block. The success of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra lies in its ability to be a voice for this diverse community while assuming the leadership role that comes with being part of a major population center. The ASO has longstanding relationships with Morehouse and Spelman—two prestigious, African American colleges. Since its founding in 1970, the renowned all-volunteer Atlanta Symphony Orchestra Chorus has been a magnet for singers throughout the city (and the United States). The Grammy Award®–winning Atlanta Symphony Orchestra is committed to a new generation of American composers through its Atlanta School of Composers.

The Knights Called “one of Brooklyn’s sterling cultural products… known far beyond the borough for their relaxed virtuosity and expansive repertory” (The New Yorker), The Knights are dedicated to bringing classical music to life in unexpected ways. Equally at home in the world’s great classical venues to jamming at the local bar, The Knights have engaged both longtime listeners and a new generation of classical music fans with their irresistible spirit and excellence. The ensemble grew out of informal chamber music parties at the home of brothers Eric and Colin Jacobsen—now the group’s Artistic Directors. Today, The Knights consist of 36 multi-talented members who are accomplished soloists, composers, singer-songwriters, and improvisers in their own rights. The group’s collective structure honors the voices of each and every musician, and results in programs of adventurous music performed with unbridled energy. This spring, The Knights are especially excited to celebrate the release of their new album with longtime friend Yo-Yo Ma, Azul, and to make their debut at the Aix-en-Provence Easter Festival in France, and the newly opened Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, Germany!

Finish out Women’s History Month with a woman you’ve probably never heard of. Gertrude Bell was considered “the female Lawrence of Arabia,” and her work as a writer, spy and archaeologist a century ago greatly affected Britain’s political maneuvering in the Middle East, particularly in Iraq. The 2016 documentary “Letters From Baghdad” uses historical footage and Bell’s own words — read by Tilda Swinton — to paint a picture of a woman who never got the awesome epic biopic she deserved.

The Hamburg Ballet’s dark version of the beloved children’s tale is full of psychosexual drama and sadness. After the titular character trades her voice for feet, walking turns out to be unbearably painful — and she doesn’t even get her prince. So, this may not be the best ballet for younger kids, but more emo teens and adults will love director John Neumeier’s expressionistic choreography and Lera Auerbach’s otherworldly score — which will be played live and calls for some unusual instruments, including a theremin (an electronic instrument you play by waving your hand in the air).

This wildly popular interactive comedy whodunit keeps the audiences laughing as they try to outwit the suspects and catch the killer. New clues and up to the minute improvisation deliver “shrieks of laughter night after night.” (Washington Post) Be our guest for this tale as old as time. This breathtaking musical features the animated film’s Academy Award®winning score. American premiere of award winning Irish dark comedy. “Finds the pathos and the power” – The Washington Post The legendary African American gospel musical. “Makes you want to rise and clap along!” -The Washington Post Aaron Posner’s latest re-imagined Chekhov radically intersects with its Russian progenitor—while Three Sisters plays out in one theatre, No Sisters performs upstairs in another: Same cast, same time, separate theatre… No Sisters: A wildly funny play about wildly unhappy people. If you’ve ever seen Sun’s virtuosic performance style, you’ll want to experience it again… and if not, you must not miss the chance to be transported to Pike St.

SONY PICTURES

Writer claims Disney stole ‘Zootopia’

From left: Ewen Bremner, Ewan McGregor, Jonny Lee Miller and Robert Carlyle in “T2 Trainspotting.”

20 years have gone by, and ‘T2’ faces it head-on Director Danny Boyle unlocks time with the ‘Trainspotting’ sequel FILM The first gut punch of “T2 Trainspotting,” which opens on Friday, comes in prison. Begbie (Robert Carlyle) sits across from his lawyer, gray hair glinting in the industrial light, the sharp angles of his face a bit softened and more than a bit wrinkled, a slight paunch hanging over his belt. He’s still as angry and foul-mouthed as he was when we last saw him — just over 20 years ago — but Begbie … well, he’s gotten old. So have the rest of the lads from 19 9 6 ’s S c ot l a nd - set “Trainspotting” (though not all of them have grown UP). Renton (Ewan McGregor) has escaped the heroin-fueled madness of the first film and built a life in Amsterdam; Sick Boy (Jonny Lee Miller) has traded smack for cocaine, with big plans to

open a brothel on the Edinburgh waterfront; Spud (Ewen Bremner) struggles with sobriety, but is miraculously alive. Boyle All of them have left behind — well, mostly — the hedonistic fires of their youth, which means they have to deal with something they never really counted on: the future. “What is the legacy of this lot?” says British director Danny Boyle, who helmed both films. “When you’re young, you don’t even think about time. It has no relevance. [But] the real equation is: Time doesn’t care about you, but you’d better care about it.” It doesn’t matter, after all, if you never planned to get old — if you live long enough, you will. Boyle made it clear to his returning actors that their age would show. “I told them, ‘Listen, this could be very, very cruel on you. Even if you look OK, there’s

not going to be any Hollywood makeup,’ ” he says. “You can’t hide 20 years.” What you can do is skip 20 years, an experience Boyle found fascinating. “Films have a curious power, because you freeze people,” says the director, who won an Oscar for 2008’s “Slumdog Millionaire.” “You watch [the actors] in the original film, and you’ve got an image of them in that film.” The Ewan McGregor of the first “Trainspotting” is the same today and he will be tomorrow and always. “T2” is Boyle’s way of accounting for the years that have passed. “Something I got to understand is that movies, there is no other art form like it. You’re working on time — you slow it down, you throw it away or you freeze it. In this case, you can unlock it and say, ‘No, time has continued to move forward inexorably for everyone — for you, for me and for these guys as well.’ ” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Forest Whitaker to produce yet-to-be-titled biopic on civil rights activist Angela Davis

Gary L. Goldman, a producer/screenwriter whose credits include work on “Minority Report” and the “Total Recall” films, filed a copyright infringement lawsuit Tuesday in Los Angeles, claiming Walt Disney Pictures copied his ideas to create the Oscar-winning animated film “Zootopia.” His lawsuit states he pitched his “Zootopia” concept to Disney in 2000 and 2009, and that there are substantial similarities between his project and last year’s blockbuster. Disney rejected the suit’s claims in a statement: “Mr. Goldman’s lawsuit is riddled with patently false allegations. … We will vigorously defend against it in court.” Goldman is asking a federal judge to block Disney from future “Zootopia” projects until the case is resolved.

Ed Sheeran credits TLC’s ‘No Scrubs’ songwriters The writers of TLC’s 1999 song “No Scrubs” — Kandi Burruss and Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, of the girl group Xscape, and Kevin “She’kspere” Briggs — have been given songwriting credit on Ed Sheeran’s “Shape of You,” Billboard reported. This follows a plagiarism controversy in which some suspected the rhythm of a specific line from “Shape of You” was lifted from “No Scrubs.” On Instagram, Burruss and Cottle reacted to the news and congratulated Sheeran on the success of his song.

Chuck Berry’s last album, ‘Chuck,’ is due out in June Chuck Berry’s final studio album will be released on June 16. The album, titled “Chuck,” was announced in October, five months before the rock pioneer’s death on Saturday at the age of 90. “Chuck” is Berry’s first album since 1979’s “Rock It.” Dualtone Records said eight of the 10 new recordings were written by Berry. A new song from the album, “Big Boys,” was released Wednesday. (AP) FESTIVALS

“Given the design and street number, I shall call it ‘The Devil’s Dildo.’ ” @BETTYCRACKERFL tweeting about the newly revealed rendering for a redevelopment of 666 Fifth Avenue, owned by Kushner Companies. The Wall Street Journal reported that the plan is hitting snags with investors, along with extra scrutiny because the former CEO of the firm, Jared Kushner, is the son-in-law of and now a senior adviser to President Trump. That didn’t stop Twitter users from making fun of the rendering for everything from its design to its address. Some pointed out its resemblance to the Eye of Sauron tower in the “Lord of the Rings,” while others compared it to a phallus.

Federer is on the April cover of GQ for the magazine’s 2017 Style Bible.

TODAY: The winds are gone, but still it’s a chilly start, and temperatures can recover only so much by afternoon. With high pressure dominating, we’ll see mostly sunny skies as highs top out in the high 40s. We’re still on the cool side but not as chilly as tonight, when lows are in the upper 20s.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) An unpopular opinion you held some time ago will be recognized as far more valid now. Real progress can start to be made. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) An old ally must not become a new enemy, but what happens today will be the determining factor. There’s only so much you can do.

Next season on ‘American Horror Story’ …

Vogue’s royals now starting their empire Bee Shaffer, daughter of Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, and Francesco Carrozzini, son of the late Vogue Italia editor-inchief Franca Sozzani, are engaged, the New York Post reported. The two have been linked since October, though insiders said they’ve been “together for a while.” Shaffer used to see E! personality Ben Lyons, and Carrozzini previously dated singer Lana Del Rey.

Lindsay Lohan revealed on Twitter and Facebook that she’s launching a new reality series called “The Anti-Social Network.” The idea is that she’ll prank various contestants on the show by hijacking their social media accounts for 24 hours, without their knowing it’s Lohan behind the keyboard, and will challenge them to do embarrassing acts for prizes. “I’m back, b----es,” she says in a trailer she posted Wednesday on her social platforms. “I love social media. I mean, I AM social media. … So I decided to dare people to really question how much their social media is worth.” According to Vanity Fair, the show is currently being shopped around to networks.

He said Viall, a four-time “Bachelor” franchise veteran, will wind up back on the show eventually. Viall responded by tweeting a sad-face emoji. (EXPRESS)

Wyclef Jean said he was “treated like a criminal” when Los Angeles County sheriff’s deputies mistook him for a robber on Tuesday. He posted a Twitter video of himself in handcuffs leaned over a patrol car, decrying the way he was being treated. The sheriff’s officials later apologized, but said Jean was lawfully stopped by deputies looking for a criminal in a similar vehicle and clothing. (AP)

“I thought I was Scottish and Welsh. It turns out my parents are just full of s---, I guess. But now I’m Irish!”

On Tuesday’s “Late Late Show,” “Girls” star Allison Williams said that since dyeing her hair, many have asked if blondes really do have more fun. “I finally realized that they’re asking it because they’re hoping I’m more fun now,” she said. “Even my friends and family are like, ‘Are you having more fun? Is this going to be a more enjoyable relationship for us? Are you also more fun?’ And the answer is no.” (EXPRESS)
