Stormy Daniels puts D.C. dates on her tour
Temperatures have remained below normal throughout the region for 22 straight days. There’s more cold to come.
Winter weather lingers First week of April will bring more cold and even a chance of snow WEATHER So far, it’s the year without a spring in Washington. Temperatures have remained below normal in the region for 22 straight days and, at Dulles, have dropped below freezing the past 20 days, a March record. Springlike weather will tease the region today through Friday, with highs in the 60s to possibly near 70 on Thursday, but temperatures will come crashing back down next week. The first week of April promises to be colder than normal.
Even beyond next week, the pattern will probably shape up on the cool side. A cold front sweeping through the region between Easter Sunday and early next week will initiate the shift back to chilly weather. The American modeling system forecasts highs hovering in the 50s through the first 10 days of April. These are temperatures that are more typical of the first 10 days of March. While the coldest weather is expected to center in the Midwest early next week, the signal for chilly weather in the eastern United States becomes strong by the middle of next week, lasting through at least April 10. Wit h c old a i r i n pl ac e ,
disturbances passing through the flow could bring wet snow or cold rain to the region. The American and Canadian models show a chance of wet snow Monn day or Monday night, as a wave ve of low pressure forms along the he Arctic front poised to our south. h. Unless snow falls at night in n early April, it’s usually too warm m for it to stick and cause problems. s. Accumulating snow is typically y confined to the high elevations ns to our west. But the mere fact ct that snow is a possibility at this is point is remarkable. The last time measurable e hsnow fell in April in Washn i ng ton was i n 2 0 07, when 0.4 of an inch fell on April 7.

Gray area of weed pop-ups
$50
Lisa Scott, who operates the edible cannabis company Bud Appetit in the District, says consumers have driven demand in the pop-up scene.
METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT
THE DISTRICT At the XO Lounge in downtown Washington one January night, people who paid a $10 cover charge were greeted with samples of caramel popcorn, brownies and crisped-rice treats — all infused with marijuana. Customers could browse three floors with tables featuring all manner of cannabis: edible candies, smokable flowers, wax, oils and more. All were available only after a suitable “donation” was given for a sticker, or a football card. The cannabis was billed as an added “gift.” The next night, D.C. police and the city’s Alcoholic Beverage Regulation Administration (ABRA) poured in. They arrested 22 of the vendors, charging them with misdemeanor drug possession with intent to distribute. Weeks later, though, D.C. prosecutors dropped the charges, raising questions about how the U.S. attorney’s office will handle such cases. These marijuana pop-up events have emerged in the bizarre twilight zone of D.C. marijuana law, where it is legal to possess small amounts of cannabis but not legal to sell it. The events occur nightly in private residences, public restaurants and vacant office spaces, and are advertised openly on social media. Some vendors believe they have found a workaround to the law, saying that they are

Marijuana events exist in a legal twilight zone caused by D.C. law
Edibles and cannabis were seized in January from the XO Lounge pop-up.
Tuesday’s protest The D.C. Cannabis Business Association and the group DCMJ offered D.C. Council members free marijuana Tuesday in front of City Hall, to advocate for legalizing the drug’s sale. WAMU reporter Martin Austermuhle tweeted that council members Jack Evans and David Gross accepted the free joints. (EXPRESS)
selling only trinkets and that the cannabis is included. Police call it illegal drug dealing. “It’s plainly obvious they’re negotiating for marijuana sales,” said Lt. Andy Struhar of the D.C. police narcotics unit. He said police don’t actively seek out the marijuana markets, but they do respond if they get complaints.
Initially, some vendors said, police and the ABRA seemed to tolerate the pop-up markets. But recently, the number of such markets has mushroomed, complaints from neighbors and tipsters have risen, and the authorities were obliged to get involved. Struhar noted that the markets are easy to find on Google or Instagram. When police are notified of possible illegal activity, they often team up with the ABRA or the District’s business licensing agency to investigate for legal and administrative violations. How these cases play out in court remains to be seen. In the case of the XO Lounge, defense attorney Paul Zukerberg said prosecutors dismissed charges against his client and the 21 other defendants and gave no explanation. The U.S. attorney’s office declined to comment. Lisa Scott, who operates the edible cannabis company Bud Appetit in the District, said growing interest from consumers and other entrepreneurs led to an expansion in the pop-up scene. “Consumers make the demand happen,” Scott said, “and ... the city should recognize that.” Morgan Fox, of the Marijuana Policy Project, said: “The vast majority of operators or potential operators want to be legal and licensed.” Fox said that clarifying city laws would eliminate the “gray market” of the popups, remove the threat of raids and allow the District to collect taxes on regulated marijuana sales.

DAILY PAY FOR FEDERAL JURORS
The amount jurors on federal cases will be compensated per day after Congress approved a $10-aday increase. Compensation for jury service at federal courts around the country had languished for 28 years. The increase was approved Friday as part of the $1.3 trillion spending bill. Jurors will get $50 a day when they start service and $60 a day after completing 45 days of service — up from the $50 they now get at that mark. The pay boost came after a group of 24 federal grand jurors in Washington formally petitioned congressional leaders. (TWP)

Maryland Senate gives initial approval to bill outlawing “gay conversion therapy”
Bagels, lox and apologies for councilman POLITICS After he claimed a Jewish banking dynasty controls the climate and federal government, D.C. Council member Trayon White’s path to atonement included a bagels and lox breakfast with fellow lawmakers and Jewish community leaders. The Monday morning meal — catered by a kosher supermarket — turned into a chance to air grievances and begin healing after White’s antiSemitic comments set off an international uproar last week. White, a Democrat elected in 2016 to represent Southeast Washington, has been privately meeting and speaking to Jewish leaders since last Monday, and is planning to visit the Holocaust Museum and attend a Passover Seder. Several Jewish community leaders talked about the dangerous history of stereotypes painting Jews as power-hungry, but said White deserved a chance to redeem and educate himself. “Trayon made a mistake, but only fools repeat a mistake. People who are wise try to correct them,” said Rabbi Levi Shemtov of the American Friends of Lubavitch. After 35 minutes of listening, White said he couldn’t apologize enough for his comments. “Growing up as a young man in Ward 8, I had no idea what anti-Semitism was,” said White, his bagel and lox mostly untouched.

A U.S. District Court judge on Tuesday sentenced a former Maryland middle school aide and high school track coach to 105 years in prison on federal child pornography charges involving 10 minors. In January, Carlos DeAngelo Bell, 30, of Waldorf admitted he coerced children to engage in sexually explicit conduct to produce child pornography from 2014 to 2016. During earlier state proceedings, Bell pleaded guilty to attempted transmission of HIV. Authorities had disclosed Bell was HIV-positive. Investigators have said they do not think any victims were infected. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

federalworkforce Q+A
TELEWORKING WORKS
Combining sick, annual leave would likely reduce days off A. Nearly all full-time federal employees earn 13 days of sick leave per year plus 13, 20 or 26 days of annual leave (vacation) depending on their years of service. Part-time employees get prorated amounts. The White House budget plan
last month proposed combining them into what would be called paid time off, although it didn’t specify that it would cause a reduction in the total. A follow-up document said, “This proposal would reduce the total number of leave days accrued by an employee annually,” although it didn’t specify by how many. That would have to be decided if the proposal starts moving in Congress. Other issues would include how much leave employees
could carry over from year to year and what would happen when they leave the government. Currently, there are limits on accumulating annual leave, and the value of unused leave is paid in a lump sum at separation, regardless of retirement eligibility. Sick leave accumulates without limit and is credited as time actually worked toward a retirement annuity, but it has no cash value for those ineligible to retire. ERIC YODER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The percentage of federal employees who telework who said they’re satisfied with their jobs, compared with 68 percent of those who don’t ever work from home, according to a 2017 survey released this month. Of the 64,474 who responded, 83 percent said their professional and personal and/or family life needs interfere with each other to some degree. (TWP)

Study reveals bath-time toy’s dirty secret
California Attorney General Xavier Becerra is suing the White House over a citizenship-based census question.
Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross believes the census change would help identify voting rights violations.
Trump administration sued over census change California, New York: Citizenship question violates Constitution POLITICS The state of California sued the Trump administration Monday night, arguing that the decision to add a question about citizenship in the 2020 census violates the U.S. Constitution. The state’s attorney general acted just after the Commerce Department announced the change. The action was followed Tuesday by an announcement from New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman that he will lead a multi-state lawsuit to preserve what he said was a fair and accurate census.
The suits are the start of a likely broader political battle that pits the administration against many Democratic states, which believe that the citizenship question will reduce the response rate for the census and produce undercounts. Opponents say states with significant immigrant populations stand to lose seats in state legislatures and Congress, and electoral college votes. Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross said the data could help identify potential voting-rights violations by providing more accurate information about the proportion of a congressional district’s population that is eligible to vote through citizenship. The Constitution requires a census, or “actual enumeration,”
every 10 years to apportion congressional representation. Apportionment is based on the “number of free persons” in each state. The lawsuit alleges the change violates this. Schneiderman said, “The Trump Administration’s reckless decision to suddenly abandon nearly 70 years of practice by demanding to know the citizenship status of each resident counted cuts to the heart of this sacred obligation — and will create an environment of fear and distrust in immigrant communities.” The Commerce Department portrayed the move as enforcing Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which protects minority population voting rights.

Scientists have the dirt on the rubber ducky: The bath-time toys are a haven for nasty bugs. Swiss and American researchers counted the microbes swimming inside the toys and said the murky liquid released when ducks were squeezed contained “potentially pathogenic bacteria” in four out of the five toys studied.

Trump presses military to fund his border wall POLITICS During his election campaign, President Trump frequently said Mexico would pay for a wall along the southern border. Now, he is privately pushing the U.S. military to fund construction of his signature project. Trump told advisers he was spurned in a large spending bill last week when lawmakers appropriated only $1.6 billion for the border wall — far short of the $25 billion he was seeking. He has begun suggesting that the Pentagon could fund the sprawling construction, citing a “national security” risk. After floating the notion to several advisers last week, Trump told House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., that the military should pay for the wall, according to three people familiar with the meeting. Ryan offered little reaction to the notion, these people said, but senior Capitol Hill officials later said it was an unlikely prospect. In another such interaction with senior aides last week, Trump noted that the Defense Department was getting so much money as part of the $1.3 trillion spending package that the Pentagon could surely afford the border wall, two White House officials said. The Pentagon received about $700 billion in the spending package. “Build WALL through M!” Trump recently tweeted. Two advisers said that “M” stood for “military.” JOSH DAWSEY AND MIKE DEBONIS (TWP)

nation+world Cops avoid indictment in the 2016 shooting of black man in Louisiana BATON ROUGE, LA. Authorities in Louisiana said Tuesday that the two white Baton Rouge police officers involved in the fatal shooting of Alton Sterling will not face criminal charges, a decision announced nearly two years after his death prompted intense protests. The announcement makes Sterling’s death the latest highprofile police shooting to end without charges for officers involved. Sterling was killed in July 2016 by officers responding to a call about a man who had threatened someone with a gun.
The Baton Rouge officers then encountered Sterling, 37, selling CDs outside of a convenience store, and fatally shot him during an encounter that lasted less than 90 seconds. “I know the Sterling family is hurting,” Louisiana Attorney General Jeff Landry said. “I know that they may not agree with this decision.” The Justice Department said last year it decided against bringing federal charges against officers Blane Salamoni and Howie Lake, concluding that there was insufficient evidence to prove they violated Sterling’s rights. Landry said his investigation concluded that both officers “attempted to make a lawful arrest of Alton Sterling based upon

arrest him. After Sterling was shot, Lake found and removed a loaded .38-caliber handgun from Sterling’s right front pocket, according to Landry’s office. Landry also said toxicology reports showed that Sterling had drugs in his system at the time of his death, which Landry said was likely linked to Sterling’s noncompliance with police orders. Sterling’s autopsy showed he had been shot six times — three times in the chest and three times in his back. Sterling’s relatives and their attorneys assailed the decision. “The system failed us,” said Sandra Sterling, his aunt. “He was not a monster. … This was a family man.” MARK BERMAN AND

In the eight years since, Holt has seen the chaotic aftermath of two more deadly shootings and has lost seven high school classmates to the daily drip of gun violence. Like many black teenagers in neighborhoods hobbled by generational poverty, she is scrutinizing the national gun control debate intensely, frustrated because her community feels ignored, but she is also cautiously hopeful that the massacre in Florida may bring about change closer to home. “I feel really bad that they lost those kids in Florida. But, like, we go through shootings all the time. It’s just that our shootings happen day by day. Because it happens on the regular up here, the world says it’s really not that important,” said the 18-year-old Holt, a junior at Excel Academy, an alternative high school across the street from a cluster of West Baltimore’s boarded-up row houses. Christina Martin, a 17-year-old who lost two schoolmates to gun violence this year at Thurgood Marshall Academy in Washington, noted that the victims in the affluent Parkland community were mostly white and Latino. None were African-American. “We should have got the same attention in return,” said Martin, who is black. The gun violence toll is

unrelenting in parts of Baltimore — a city that reached a grim milestone last year when the per capita homicide rate rose to 56 killings per 100,000 people. That’s the highest rate among the country’s 30 biggest cities. Even as Excel Academy students prepared for last Saturday’s March for Our Lives protest, gun violence struck again: A 17-year-old classmate was shot on a street corner — three bullets in the back by an unidentified gunman. Parkland’s student protesters are well aware that their peers in inner-city districts are dealing with the impact of gun violence daily. Earlier this month, they met with Chicago teens. Before the Washington march on Saturday, a number of students from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School went to Thurgood Marshall High School to hear from students there. “We openly recognize that we

are privileged individuals and would not have received as much attention if it weren’t for the affluence of our city. Because of that, however, we share the stage today and forever with those who have always stared down the barrel of a gun,” Parkland student Jaclyn Corin said during a speech Saturday. Many worry that despite the renewed attention on gun
violence and gun laws, little will change. Angel Anderson went to the New Orleans March for Our Lives rally Saturday to support her 13-year-old daughter. Her own son was robbed at gunpoint outside her house in the middle of the day by a gunman who wanted his hoverboard. “I just feel like we’re on our own,” she said. Others are hopeful that the voices of impassioned young people can push policymakers to do something. “This gun violence has got to stop somewhere,” said Holt, who was among 25 Excel Academy students and staff who joined hundreds of thousands of people Saturday to call for tougher laws against firearms and ammo at Washington’s March for Our Lives rally. “This might be the start of real change happening now. Not just for Florida, for us too. For everybody.” DAVID MCFADDEN AND REBECCA SANTANA (AP)
EAST LANSING, MICH. The sexual abuse scandal at Michigan State University widened Tuesday, when authorities charged a former dean not only with failing to keep sports doctor Larry Nassar in line but with sexually harassing female students. William Strampel, 70, above, is the first person charged since an investigation was launched in January into how Michigan State handled complaints against Nassar, who for years sexually violated girls and young women, especially gymnasts, with his fingers during examinations. Strampel, who as dean of the College of Osteopathic Medicine oversaw the clinic where Nassar worked, neglected his duty to enforce examining-room restrictions he imposed on Nassar after a patient accused the doctor in 2014 of sexual contact, authorities alleged. The criminal complaint also accused Strampel of soliciting nude photos from at least one student and using his office to “harass, discriminate, demean, sexually proposition, and sexually assault female students.” His work computer contained about 50 photos of female genitalia, nude and semi-nude women — many of them female MSU students — sex toys and pornography, prosecutors said. Strampel’s charges carry maximum penalties ranging from a year to five years behind bars. He denies all of the charges. DAVID EGGERT (AP)

Facebook signals CEO will testify TECHNOLOGY Facebook has signaled that CEO Mark Zuckerberg will testify before Congress by discussing the details of the appearance with lawmakers, according to a person familiar with the conversations. Three congressional committees, including the Senate Judiciary Committee, have invited Zuckerberg to testify at an April 10 meeting on data privacy. It is unclear how many hearings he’ll attend, and of which committees.
DAVID RAMOS (GETTY IMAGES)
Discussions suggest Zuckerberg will appear before Congress Mark Zuckerberg declined to testify before a U.K. committee investigating Facebook.
A spokeswoman for the House Energy and Commerce committee said he has not confirmed his attendance. “The committee is continuing to work with Facebook to determine a day and time for Mr. Zuckerberg to
testify,” said spokeswoman Elena Hernandez. The congressional hearings were prompted by revelations that data consultancy Cambridge Analytica wrongfully obtained personal information on at least 30
million American Facebook users. Facebook opted not to make Zuckerberg available Tuesday to testify for a key parliamentary committee in the U.K. investigating the same issue. Zuckerberg stayed mum for nearly a week after the Cambridge Analytica controversy erupted, frustrating both lawmakers and Facebook employees. When asked in a CNN interview last Wednesday whether he would testify, he said he was “happy to, if it’s the right thing to do.” Lawmakers have not said if they’d take the rare step of issuing a subpoena, forcing Zuckerberg to appear.

FBI arrests man over shipments to military sites NATIONAL SECURITY The FBI has arrested a 43-yearold Seattle man believed to be responsible for sending a series of suspicious packages to D.C.-area government facilities, authorities said Tuesday. Thanh Cong Phan was arrested late Monday at his home in Everett, Wash., the FBI said. He was charged Tuesday with shipping of explosive material, a crime punishable by up to 10 years behind bars. Investigators do not believe the incident involved terrorism, but they are exploring the suspect’s motive. In a statement, the FBI said it believes Phan may have sent more than half a dozen packages containing “potential destructive devices.” The packages were sent to Fort McNair in D.C.; Fort Belvoir in Fairfax County; Joint Base Anacostia-Bolling in D.C.; the CIA in Langley, Va., and the Naval Surface Warfare Center in Dahlgren, Va. No one was injured in the incidents. It was not immediately known what had tipped off authorities to deem the packages suspicious, but authorities said at least one of the packages contained black powder. The FBI had said Monday in a statement that each of the packages was collected for more analysis and sent to its lab. Officials cautioned that more packages may have been sent to mail processing facilities in the D.C. area and said to remain on alert. MATT ZAPOTOSKY AND DANA HEDGPETH (TWP)

Werth signs to play AAA for Mariners
Woke pair not all talk MLB Sean Doolittle and Eireann Dolan almost wore the same shoes to a photo shoot last week. Most major league players don’t argue with their wife over who gets to wear Birkenstocks, but Doolittle and Dolan are not most major league couples. In a sport with a decidedly conservative culture, they’re unafraid to be different. Their Twitter banter fostered hordes of loving fans during Doolittle’s time in Oakland. Their stances on political and social issues stand out because so many athletes won’t go there. Their community service has given their online personalities real clout. Their social media back-andforth includes Dolan’s jokes about Doolittle’s workouts with 5-pound dumbbells, or his nerdouts over “Star Wars.” But it also includes support for the Black Lives Matter movement, increased gun control and other political po t ca issues. ssues.
Doolittle is less public about his opinions, but he does feel responsibility to speak up. When violence erupted at a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, the Virginia alumnus felt he had to say something. “It’s on us to condemn it and drive it out,” he wrote on Twitter, adding that the city is “no place for Nazis.” Doolittle thinks before he tweets, sometimes deciding it’s best not to hit send. He takes care because MLB clubhouses have long been considered bastions of conservatism. If a younger generation is trending more toward the socially active habits of their peers in the NBA and NFL, no one is saying so. If there is a prevailing ideology in baseball, it is to keep one’s ideology to himself. Don’t ask, don’t tell, and don’t mess up the clubhouse vibe. “I used to care a lot about what other people thought — like teammates,” Doolittle said. “But then, I feel like in this atmosphere and

in general, if people can tell that you’re being genuine ... people will respect that.” He and Dolan take on personal causes, such as veterans’ issues or LGBT rights. Both are from military families. Dolan’s mother is gay. Early in Doolittle’s career, they became dedicated supporters of Operation Finally Home, which builds houses for wounded veterans. Doolittle and Dolan started a registry to help furnish two houses, promising signed A’s gear to those who donated. Within weeks, fans had filled every cabinet and drawer. “I think that was the first time we realized we had the ability to
move the needle,” Dolan said. When the Athletics received backlash for scheduling an LGBT Pride Night in 2015, Doolittle and Dolan raised enough money to buy 900 tickets that they donated to local LGBT youth groups. They organized a Thanksgiving meal for Syrian refugees in Chicago. They wrote an op-ed for Sports Illustrated about the need to fund mental health resources for discharged veterans. “Other people have a chance to get involved so we’re not just, like, yelling into the void and retweeting things,” Doolittle said. “. . . I’m not just an athlete doing something for likes on social media.”
A couple of hours before the Nationals began their first game at Nationals Park in the post-Jayson Werth era, news broke Tuesday that he had found a new home. The left fielder signed a minor league deal with Seattle just before Washington’s spring training finale against Minnesota. Werth is expected to report to Class AAA Tacoma after an extended spring training. Werth, 38, signed weeks after the Mariners brought back Ichiro Suzuki, 44, on a major league deal. With Adam Eaton in left, the Nationals never had interest in bringing back Werth, who hit .226 in an injury-riddled 2017. Werth then found himself in a market that devalued older players more than ever. (TWP)

‘Tweak’ muddles Caps’ goalie battle NHL The Capitals intended for Braden Holtby and Philipp Grubauer to split starting responsibilities to end the regular season, but they might want to have both goalies placed in bubble wrap instead. A day after the team got Holtby back into the lineup and
healthy, Grubauer suffered an unspecified “little tweak,” at the Rangers on Monday, coach Barry Trotz said. Opting for caution so close to the postseason, the team will recall Pheonix Copley before tonight’s rematch with New York at home (8, NBCSN). These last two weeks before the playoffs were supposed to provide clarity on who might be the top goaltender, but the recent rash of injuries has clouded the competition even more.

Pitt hires Duke assistant Jeff Capel to rebuild team
Owners unanimously pass simplified catch rule
Giants expect Beckham to show up for offseason
Pittsburgh hired Jeff Capel on Tuesday, turning to the longtime Duke assistant and former coach at VCU and Oklahoma to rebuild its program after two down years under Kevin Stallings. Capel takes over a team that finished 8-24 and 0-18 in the ACC this season. Pitt had interviewed Thad Matta and Tom Crean and made overtures to Danny Hurley, who opted take the open job at Connecticut. Capel, 43, spent the last seven seasons in the seat next to Mike Krzyzewski while developing a reputation as one of the top recruiters in the nation. Duke was 4-3 in games in which Capel filled in for Krzyzewski, 71. (AP)
The owners of the 32 NFL teams, gathered in Orlando for the annual league meeting Tuesday, unanimously voted to ratify the proposal made by the competition committee for a streamlined catch rule. The rule would have passed with as few as 24 votes. The new rule eliminates the requirement that a receiver who is going to the ground must maintain possession of the ball on the turf to be awarded a catch. To be credited with a legal catch, a receiver must have control of the ball with two feet or another body part on the ground in bounds, and then make a football move, such as taking a third step or extending the ball.

Coach Pat Shurmur said Tuesday he expects Odell Beckham Jr. to attend offseason workouts when they start in April. Trade rumors are surrounding the Giants’ star receiver, and there has been strong speculation Beckham will hold out during training camp because he doesn’t want to play the fifth and final year of his rookie deal without a new contract. “All reports are he will be ready to go as we get going,” Shurmur said. Beckham, 25, is recovering from a broken left ankle that sidelined him for the last 12 games in 2017. In his first three seasons, he had 288 receptions for 4,122 yards and 35 touchdowns. (AP)

CONDO SPOTLIGHT
It pays to shop around Homebuyers who don’t compare lenders could be missing out on saving thousands REAL ESTATE It’s one of the weirder documented facts about homebuying in America: Surprising numbers of consumers don’t bother to shop around for mortgage money, even though they could save tens of thousands of dollars through lower interest payments by doing so. People search incessantly online to find the best deals on hotel rooms, kitchen appliances, furniture, clothing and tons of other stuff. But for some reason, many go limp when it’s time to make a really high-dollar purchase — a home mortgage, often the biggest expenditure of their lives. When the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau surveyed 5,000 home purchasers several years ago in the first national study of its type, it found that 47 percent of buyers didn’t even “seriously consider” more than one lender; 77 percent applied to only one. CFPB researchers also found that rate quotes among competing lenders for the same prime
borrower — with a high credit score and a 20 percent down payment, seeking the same mortgage amount — frequently vary by half of one percentage point. That may not sound like much, but the bigger the loan and the longer it continues, the heftier the savings for borrowers who nail down the best-priced offer. Even on a $200,000, 30-year fixed-rate loan, choosing a lender quoting a 4.5 percent rate compared with a lender who’ll do the loan at 4 percent can cost you $3,500 in the first 60 months alone. New studies suggest that the spread between high and low quotes available to borrowers may be higher — and may even be increasing. Lending Tree, an online network with 342 mortgage companies competing for homebuyers’ business, found that the median spread between annual percentage rate (APR) quotes to individual borrowers for each loan request on its platform was six-tenths of a percentage point
Elysium Logan THINKSTOCK/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION
1427 Rhode Island Ave. NW, Washington
Online options Although there are other online shopping platforms, Lending Tree and Zillow are major players, easy to use and free. There are noteworthy differences, however. (TWP) Lending Tree: It promises you up to five firm offers from competitors but requires you to submit personal identifying information so lenders can evaluate your application. Zillow: It does not require personal information and says it averages 30 return quotes per inquiry, but the quotes become firm only when you actually apply to a specific lender, and that requires submission of the usual personal information needed for underwriting.
during the week ending March 11. That was up by more than a tenth of a percentage point from a year ago. What that means is that, as a potential applicant presenting identical characteristics to each competing lender, you would probably see a high-low spread of nearly six-tenths of a percentage point in quoted APRs. (The APR measures the cost of the
loan when fees are added into the quoted interest rate, thereby giving a fuller picture of the true cost per year.) In the case of a $300,000, 30-year fixed rate mortgage, that spread translates to $26,780 over the life of the loan. Another online platform that allows lenders to make competing offers, Zillow, conducted a data analysis exclusively for this column that showed the median high-low APR spread in offers on its network of hundreds of lenders and brokers to be even wider: just under seven-tenths of a percentage point on a 30-year fixed loan with 20 percent down. Erin Lantz, vice president of mortgages at Zillow, says homebuyers’ willingness to forgo shopping among multiple lenders “is a head scratcher.” A “fear bar” may be part of the problem, Lantz believes. There “are a lot of numbers, a lot of terms that are foreign” in mortgages, she says, which for some buyers can be intimidating. Bottom line: Don’t go limp. Get active, shop for your mortgage money and save a bunch when it really counts. KENNETH R. HARNEY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

If owner stops paying fees, associations can foreclose before banks REAL ESTATE A recent case in the District offers good news to condo associations struggling with owners delinquent on their fees: It reinforces their right to foreclose on a unit without having to wait for the bank to do so first. Homeowner associations have lost money they desperately need to operate whenever they wait for banks to foreclose first. Other winners in the case are buyers looking to whisk up a foreclosed condo at a huge bargain.
Losers are banks that are left without the right to foreclose first and unable to get back the money they lent. Back in May 2014, Andrea Liu bought a unit at the Sonata, a luxury condo building in Northwest Washington, at a foreclosure auction, paying $17,000 for an apartment that was valued around $700,000. The reason Liu got such a deal on the condo was that the previous owner stopped making mortgage payments and paying condo fees on the unit. Under D.C. condo law, condo associations have what is known as a six-month “super-priority” lien. If a unit owner stops paying fees to the
association, the association can foreclose and get its money before anyone else — even the bank. Because of this, most banks, when faced with a foreclosure by a condo association in the District, will often pay the condo association what it is owed to prevent the foreclosure. In this case, U.S. Bank, which held the mortgage on the unit that Liu bought, tried to pay off the approximately $5,200 the owner owed in condo fees to the association. But it was one day too late. The foreclosure had already taken place. U.S. Bank then filed its own foreclosure action in D.C. Superior Court against the original

condo owner and included Liu in the lawsuit. The Superior Court ruled in favor of U.S. Bank, but in early March, the D.C. Court of Appeals reversed the decision, confirming that Liu was the property owner and did not have to pay
U.S. Bank anything. This is an evolving legal issue. While banks are historically reluctant to foreclose, condominium associations cannot wait to get money owed by a delinquent owner. BENNY L. KASS (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

‘A lifestyle change that’s comfortable’ NEW IN TOWN On 3½ acres along Pickett Road in the city of Fairfax, two four-story condominium buildings over two concrete garages are filling up. The 80 units offer a mix of one to three bedrooms and nearly a dozen floor plans, some with dens. They are attractive to move-up or first-time buyers, who account for about a third of sales, and to the “move-down,” or downsizing, market, which is strong, says Patrick J. Rhodes Jr., vice president and senior project manager at the IDI Group Cos., the builder. McWilliams Ballard is handling sales. IDI, owned by the Cecchi family, has been in business 42 years
and is renowned for developing Leisure World. “We know what the active-adult community likes, and offer a lifestyle change that’s comfortable and affordable,” Rhodes says. “We’ve taken the suggestions purchasers have given us over the years to make a home work for them and incorporated them into our designs and floor plans,” he says. The Enclave embodies those structural and design elements. For example, features include an open floor plan with kitchen, living and dining rooms forming the core living area; large windows; a master bedroom situated apart from the other rooms for maximum privacy; and abundant storage space inside and outside the unit.

CRITIC’S NOTEBOOK
“Paradox” doesn’t offer documentary-style footage of Neil Young’s writing process, but we imagine it looks something like this.
Forever a free spirit Neil Young keeps doing things his weird way with a Netflix movie, archival releases STREAMING At 72, Neil Young feels a sense of urgency. The Rock and Roll Hall of Famer has a joyfully perplexing, pseudo-Western film “Paradox,” written and directed by actress and girlfriend Daryl Hannah, out now on Netflix, with a soundtrack he wrote. Next month, he’s digging into his archives for “Roxy — Tonight’s the Night Live,” culled from the famed Los Angeles club’s opening week in 1973. And if that’s not enough, Young continues to follow his vision to make his online musical archives the definitive repository of everything — previously released or not — that he’s ever recorded. “I like to get it out there so I’m alive to see how people like it,”
Young says. “Why not?” Young unveiled his new archival website in December, making all of his officially released recordings available to stream in the highest audio quality possible — a passion of his — for free. Young says he has 12 to 14 unreleased records he made between the late 1960s and 2012 that he wants to get out soon. The 1973 Roxy concert highlights is next in April, and two more vault releases are planned for this year. “When I made these records, I made them so fast that I couldn’t put them all out,” he says. “I finished one and I’d go on to the next one. That’s just the way it was at that time. I put out what I was most interested in at the time.” “Paradox” features Young as
A playful ‘Paradox’ Actress Daryl Hannah, who wrote “Paradox” and is making her directorial debut, says the Netflix film starring Neil Young was all very spontaneous and not meant to be taken too seriously: “I hope that they take it in the lighthearted spirit it was intended and turn it up so they can hear the music.” S.B.
“The Man in the Black Hat,” Willie Nelson as “Red” and his sons Lukas and Micah Nelson — of the band Promise of the Real, which backs Young on tour — as “Jailtime” and “The Particle Kid.”
Billed as a “fantasy, a loud poem and a free-spirited tale of music and love,” the film begins sometime in the “future-past” with Willie Nelson proclaiming that “time is fluid.” It follows Young and a band of outlaws in the mountains as they scavenge for treasure that includes keyboards, cameras and cellphones. In the film, Young’s band plays his song “Peace Trail” as listeners float in the air. In another scene, Young strums a ukulele as Hannah floats behind him, tied to Young’s waist by a rope. “When you’re in the music, sometimes you float away in your mind,” Young says. “It’s just another representation of the effect of art and music on people.” SCOTT BAUER (AP)

George Ezra turns travels into songs George Ezra can’t stand still. “Staying at Tamara’s,” his second album, arrives four years after his debut, which included breakthrough smash “Budapest.” For this album, Ezra took to the road to hone his songwriting. Barcelona was his first destination — the title references the Airbnb he stayed at. Traveling is presented as a good alternative to whatever may be ailing you: “With a suitcase in your hand/ It don’t matter now,” he sings on “Don’t Matter Now” (your own results may vary). Ezra’s baritone is the voice of a storyteller — deep and expressive — but he should look harder for stories to tell. PABLO GORONDI (AP)

Cardi B reveals an ‘Invasion of Privacy’
Hip-hop sensation Cardi B has finally shared on Instagram the title, release date and cover for her debut album. “Invasion of Privacy” will be released April 6 through Atlantic Records. The next day, Cardi B is set to appear as the musical guest on “Saturday Night Live.” The rapper did not reveal a track listing for the record, so it’s unclear if hit singles “Bodak Yellow,” “Bartier Cardi” or “MotorSport” made the cut.

REFACE!
As “The Americans” begins its final season, Elizabeth (Keri Russell) is doing her spy work without her husband.
FX
Transform your Kitchen with the Look of New Cabinets Available in a variety of panel styles, colors and wood grains
‘The Americans’ plots an endgame TV REVIEW FX’s “The Americans” returns at 10 p.m. tonight for its sixth and final season with a fraught episode that represents everything the series has been about, especially its underlying sense of doom. Fans of the show’s intrigue will immediately notice an uptick in tension and momentum from last season. And fans of the complex love story between the show’s married Russian secret agents, Philip and Elizabeth Jennings, will pick up on a new layer of iciness that may never thaw. The story has shifted forward a few crucial years, to the fall of 1987, skipping over the rise of Mikhail Gorbachev as Soviet leader — on which the ending of “The Americans” and its many characters and subplots will probably and symbolically hinge.
After being granted a reprieve by KGB superiors from the hardcore assignments that he used to undertake with his wife, Philip (Matthew Rhys) has spent the past few years building up the couple’s travel agency cover business. Elizabeth (Keri Russell) dutifully continues to work solo on increasingly dangerous missions. For some work, she gets an assist from her daughter, Paige (Holly Taylor), now a college student. Without spoiling upcoming episodes, it’s worth thinking about the show as a story about a marriage and a family in crisis, rather than as a show about Cold War espionage. That’s getting harder to do as current events ping off some of the nostalgic spook lore that informs “The Americans.” HANK STUEVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

In a new interview for Paper magazine, Christina Aguilera described elements of her routine when traveling. She said she takes a DVD player and plenty of DVDs with her, in case anything “goes wrong with technology.” The singer also watches DVDs as she falls asleep. Among her favorites are “mood-driven and inspiring” movies, such as “Frida,” “Amadeus,” “Elizabeth” and “Basquiat.” (EXPRESS)
Sean Penn made a bizarre appearance on “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” on Monday to promote his novel “Bob Honey Who Just Do Stuff.” After telling Colbert that he was still on “a little of the Ambien I had to take to get to sleep after a red-eye last night,” Penn pulled a pack of cigarettes out of his pocket and lit up. Penn spoke in murmurs as he discussed quitting acting, and suggested that Netflix will be “paying off settlements for years” (he declined to elaborate). When Colbert begged him to stop smoking, Penn joked it was “job security for oncologists.” (THE WASHINGTON POST)
