page three Meet D.C.’s own Matzoh Man THE DISTRICT Matzoh Man has parked his Matzoh Mobile at Farragut Square. Accompanied by his trusty sidekick, the Matzoh Maharat, it is time for him to leap into action. “Who wants matzoh?” Matzoh Man shouts, proffering a square of crispy unleavened bread to passers-by out in the Tuesday lunchtime sunshine. “Matzoh! Kosher for Passover!” Every year as Passover approaches, Rabbi Shmuel Herzfeld dons a brown and white two-piece suit imprinted with a distinctive pattern, with a skullcap and shoes to match. He looks like a walking Saltine cracker, but is in fact a piece of matzoh, the unleavened bread central to the Passover Seder dinner. “You want some matzoh with that yogurt?” Herzfeld asks a startled-looking woman walking up 17th Street. “No?” There are two things that Herzfeld — the rabbi at Ohev Sholom synagogue on 16th Street NW — has in abundance: chutzpah and matzoh.

Local rabbi gives out unleavened bread as Passover approaches
Rabbi Shmuel Herzfeld hands out matzoh Tuesday at Farragut Square.
There are 50 boxes of the latter in the back of the Matzoh Mobile, an old Ford Crown Victoria that has been wrapped in matzohpatterned vinyl. On Monday night, Ohev Sholom will host its annual communal Seder, inviting all comers. Though Herzfeld was handing out store-bought matzoh, he said they will serve homemade at the Ohev Sholom Seder, made
“Religion should be serious, but it should also be fun. It needs to be both.” RABBI SHMUEL HERZFELD, aka the Matzoh Man, on why he hands out matzoh every year as Passover approaches, wearing a brown and white two-pice suit imprinted with a pattern of the unleavened bread
the proper way: just flour and spring water. “That’s why I originally got the matzoh suit,” he says. “I love baking matzoh so much that I got a matzoh suit to match my passion for the matzoh.” With him Tuesday was Ruth Friedman, a clergywoman called a maharat. She was wearing a matzoh hat bedecked with fabric elements of a Seder plate, including an egg, a shank bone and greens. “Matzoh!” Herzfeld says. “Who wants matzoh? It’s sacred bread.” He lowers his voice, then says to me: “You know how I can tell who’s Jewish? They look away.” Some Jews, he thinks, are embarrassed that they don’t know where they’ll be spending Passover — or don’t have any place to go. “Even a Jew who’s very distant wants a Seder,” Herzfeld says. Ohev Sholom’s communal Seder, he explains, is a way to “bring people back to the community they grew up in. Who doesn’t have warm feelings for their family’s matzoh ball soup?” After about an hour, Matzoh Man and the Matzoh Maharat get back in the Matzoh Mobile and drive off. More matzoh must be baked before Monday. JOHN KELLY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY A fighter pilot on a training mission ditched his jet in a wooded area Wednesday so that the plane would avoid crashing into a suburban Washington neighborhood, the military said. The F-16C went down about 200 yards beyond a small subdivision of two-story brick homes in Clinton, Md., about 3 miles southwest of Joint Base Andrews. The pilot was treated for minor injuries and released from the hospital, said Lt. Col. Michael Corker, the pilot’s commanding officer. No one else was injured. The pilot, whose name was not released, is with the District of Columbia Air National Guard and was flying one of four fighter jets from Maryland to a shooting range in Pennsylvania for a training exercise when the crash happened. Some residents in the area told reporters that they heard what sounded like gunfire after the crash. Military officials said the plane was armed with “training
rounds,” which are real bullets that lack the armor-piercing and explosive capabilities of rounds used in combat. Officials said the crash and subsequent fire might have caused some of those rounds to go off. The cause of the crash is being investigated. About 20 homes in the area of the crash were evacuated as a precaution because of the possibility that the crash released hazardous materials, Prince George’s County Fire and EMS spokesman Mark Brady said. Residents were later allowed to return home. Crystal Hollingsworth, who lives near the crash site and had to evacuate, said she heard a “huge crash” followed by the sound of “live rounds.” Hollingsworth’s husband, Tony Hollingsworth, said the “house shook” and he also heard the sound of gunshots in the woods, something that “sounded like a shootout.” He said it lasted for “10 to 15 minutes.” Crystal Hollingsworth said pieces of the plane fell in her neighbor’s yard, damaging some of the home’s siding. She said there were probably more than a dozen metal fragments, maybe

about half an inch thick. Pieces from the crash ranged in size, some about the size of a TV remote or a book. She said one was
marked “confidential.” Some of the debris was still burning when she saw it. Acting Fire Chief Ben Barksdale said pieces of the plane were burning when crews arrived and firefighters used water and foam to extinguish them. The fuselage of the plane and one wing were intact at the crash scene. The wreckage was spread around a radius of roughly 40 yards, but debris was also found in other areas, a possible sign that it came off before impact, Brady said. “Very fortunate that we didn’t have any lives lost today,” Barksdale said.

MARYLAND A measure requiring businesses with 15 or more employees to provide five paid sick days cleared the Maryland General Assembly on Wednesday, sending the bill to Gov. Larry Hogan, who has described it as “job-killing” legislation he intends to veto. The House of Delegates voted 87-53 to agree with changes made by the Senate in a bill that affects hundreds of thousands of state residents. That’s two more votes than needed in the House to override a veto. The Senate passed the bill with 29 votes, the minimum needed for a veto override. Del. Dereck Davis, who chairs the House Economic Matters Committee, said he often hears
his colleagues ask him for consideration for illness, whether it’s to change the schedule of a bill hearing or request time to care for a sick child or parent. “We cannot in good conscience, in my opinion, take advantage of something that we’re unwilling to do for our fellow citizens,” Davis said. But Del. Nic Kipke, an Anne Arundel County Republican, said the bill will hurt small businesses. “We just believe that this bill goes too far, and the unintended consequences of the bill may be very detrimental to our ability to be economically viable as a business environment,” said Kipke, the House minority leader.

nation+world Court: Civil Right Act covers discrimination based on orientation COURTS Companies cannot discriminate against LGBT employees in the workplace because of their sexual orientation, a federal appeals court said, in a ruling that a gay rights group called a “game changer.” The 8-to-3 decision Tuesday by the full 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago is likely to lead to a battle before the Supreme Court over the interpretation of the 1964 Civil Rights Act. A three-judge panel in Atlanta ruled the opposite three weeks ago.
“This decision is a game changer for lesbian and gay employees facing discrimination in the workplace,” said Greg Nevins, of Lambda Legal, which advocates for LGBT issues. The case stems from a lawsuit by Indiana teacher Kimberly Hively alleging that the Ivy Tech Community College in South Bend didn’t hire her full time because she is a lesbian. In an opinion concurring with the majority, Judge Richard Posner wrote that evolving norms call for a change in interpretation of the Civil Rights Act, which bars discrimination based on race, color, religion, national origin or sex. “I don’t see why firing a lesbian because she is in the subset

wrote the judge, who was appointed by President Reagan. Ivy Tech said in a statement that its policies specifically bar discrimination based on sexual orientation and that it denies discriminating against Hively. Debate in the Hively case revolved around the meaning of the word “sex” in Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, the section of the law that deals with discrimination. The dissenting opinion written by Judge Diane Sykes said the majority were stretching the meaning of the law too far. “We are not authorized to infuse the text with a new or unconventional meaning or to update it to respond to changed social, economic, or political conditions,” she wrote.

Bannon leaves role on security council His departure is part of a staff reshuffling that elevates McMaster
POLITICS President Trump on Wednesday removed White House chief strategist Stephen Bannon from the National Security Council, part of a sweeping staff reshuffling that elevated key military and intelligence officials to greater roles on the council and left Bannon far less involved in shaping the administration’s dayto-day national security policy. Two senior White House officials said Bannon’s departure was in no way a demotion and that he had rarely attended meetings since being placed on the council. Bannon’s lack of national security experience when placed on the committee had been a subject of intense controversy when the move was announced in January. The White House claimed that Trump chose to change the structure of the committee to streamline its work. One official said Bannon was put on the council early in the administration to guide and keep watch over then-national security adviser Michael Flynn, who was tasked with reshaping the operation. That official and a

second official said Bannon did this from afar, attending one or two meetings of the group. Flynn was ousted in February. In a statement, Bannon said he was there to “de-operationalize” the NSC from its Obama administration setup, which he said has been accomplished with Flynn’s successor H.R. McMaster. Bannon said he no longer felt the need to be part of the NSC. The move followed days of discussions with top aides, including Bannon, about the scope of the adviser’s role moving forward and comes as McMaster — a three-star Army general and more traditional voice on security policy — has fully taken control
of the council and its operations. The new order establishing the structure of the council puts McMaster in overall charge of both the National Security Council and the Homeland Security Council headed by homeland security adviser Tom Bossert. McMaster has become a rising and blunt force within the White House, where he has gained significant influence and his plans for the council have been encouraged by Trump’s closest aides. Bannon retains his title and position and remains a confidant of the president who is working closely with others on domestic and foreign policy. ROBERT COSTA AND ABBY PHILLIP (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump draws his line President condemns gas attack in Syria, but declines to say how the U.S. will respond
Trade, security high on agenda for Trump, Xi
MARK WILSON (GETTY IMAGES)
WASHINGTON His expression grave and his words emphatic, President Trump declared Wednesday the deadly chemical attack in Syria had crossed “many, many lines” and abruptly changed his views of Syrian President Bashar Assad. But he refused to say what the U.S. might do in response. Trump issued no ultimatums in comments that were being scoured by world leaders for signs of how the new president would react to a global crisis. In a rare reversal of roles, Trump was more reserved than many of his top advisers — including his U.N. envoy who revived the hardhitting rhetoric of Trump’s political campaign and strongly hinted some U.S. action was coming. Trump himself was noncommittal: “I’m not saying I’m doing anything one way or another, but I’m certainly not going to be telling you,” he told reporters. He blamed the attack squarely on Assad’s forces, though the embattled Syrian leader and his Russian backers denied it. He suggested that the assault that killed 72 people had diminished his former reluctance to plunge the U.S. further into the complex turmoil in the Middle East. “When you kill innocent children, innocent babies — babies, little babies — with a chemical gas that is so lethal, people were shocked to hear what gas it was, that crosses many, many lines,” Trump said in the White House Rose Garden alongside Jordan’s King Abdullah II. U.S. officials said the gas was likely chlorine, with traces of a nerve agent like sarin. Use of sarin is especially troubling because it
President Trump, speaking Wednesday at the White House, said Tuesday’s chemical attack crossed “many lines.”
Trump changes opinion, but still blames Obama President Trump acknowledged Wednesday that his attitude toward Syria and President Bashar Assad “has changed very much,” but he still faults President Obama for the state of the conflict. After a 2013 chemical attack that killed hundreds on the outskirts of Damascus, Trump vociferously opposed the very action he now criticizes Obama for not taking. (TWP/EXPRESS) TRUMP IN 2013: Obama said in August 2012 that Assad using chemical weapons would cross a “red line,” but Trump warned Obama to stay out of Syria after the 2013 attack. “President Obama, do not attack Syria. There is no upside and tremendous downside,“ Trump tweeted. ON WEDNESDAY: Trump criticized Obama for threatening military action and then backing off. “We have a big problem. … And that’s going to be my responsibility,” Trump said. “But I’ll tell you, that responsibility could’ve made, been made, a lot easier if it was handled years ago.”
would suggest Syria may have cheated on its 2013 deal to give up chemical weapons. A U.S. radar review also showed Syrian aircraft flying in the area at the time of the attack, an official said. Russian and U.S. coalition aircraft were not there. While continuing to fault predecessor Barack Obama for much of the current situation in Syria, he acknowledged that dealing with the crisis is now his

own responsibility and vowed to “carry it very proudly.” Only days earlier, multiple members of Trump’s administration had said Assad’s ouster was no longer a U.S. priority, drawing outrage from Assad critics. But Trump said Tuesday’s attack “had a big impact on me — big impact.” Since the attack Tuesday in rebel-held territory in northern Syria, Trump has been under increasing pressure to explain
whether the attack would bring a U.S. response. Yet he was adamant that he would not telegraph any potential U.S. military retaliation, saying anew that that was a mistake the Obama administration had repeatedly made. The strongest indication that the U.S. might act came at the United Nations, where U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley held up photos of the attack’s victims in an emotional plea to the Security Council to intervene. “When the United Nations consistently fails in its duty to act collectively, there are times in the life of states that we are compelled to take our own action,” Haley declared. Both Haley and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson have argued that Russia and Iran — Assad’s two staunchest allies — must use their influence to prevent him from mounting further attacks. Haley accused Moscow of blocking Security Council action and closing its eyes to “barbarity.” JOSH LEDERMAN (AP)
POLITICS Ahead of President Trump’s first meeting with China’s President Xi Jinping, White House officials said Tuesday that trade and security would be high on the U.S. president’s agenda, including pushing China to exert more economic pressure on North Korea. Trump and Xi will meet today and Friday at Mar-a-Lago in Florida, chosen to give the summit a more informal feel. China is still grappling with Trump’s mercurial nature. Trump has often complained about what he calls China’s unfair trade practices, a perceived lack of assistance in reining in North Korea and its drive to cement control over the South China Sea. Trump was seen as moving trade even more to the forefront when he signed a pair of executive orders Friday focused on reducing the trade deficit. The orders appeared to be a symbolic shot at China, which accounted for the vast bulk — $347 billion — of last year’s $502 billion trade deficit. Aides insisted the timing was coincidental, but the administration touted the moves as evidence of it taking an aggressive, analytical approach to closing the trade gap. Still, Trump told the Financial Times newspaper that during his meeting with Xi, he doesn’t “want to talk about tariffs yet, perhaps the next time we meet.” CHRISTOPHER BODEEN AND JULIE PACE (AP)

Trump: Rice broke the law Former adviser denies she used intelligence reports for political gain POLITICS President Trump on Wednesday told The New York Times that former President Obama’s national security adviser, Susan Rice, might have committed a crime when she asked government analysts to disclose the names of Trump associates documented in intelligence reports. Trump would not say if he reviewed new intelligence to
support his claim. He told the Times he would say more “at the right time.” “ I t h i nk it ’s going to be the Rice biggest story,” Trump said. “It’s such an important story for our country and the world. It is one of the big stories of our time.” When the Times asked him if Rice broke the law, he said, “Do I think? Yes, I think.” Rice has firmly denied that she or other Obama officials used secret intelligence reports
to spy on Trump associates for political purposes. According to a U.S. official, Rice asked spy agencies to give her the names of Trump associates who surfaced in intelligence reports she was regularly briefed on. Rice’s official role would have given her the ability to make those requests for national security purposes. Rice, in an interview with MSNBC, would not say whether she saw intelligence related to Trump associates or whether she asked for their identities. JULIE PACE (AP)

PLAYOFFS NEAR ...
THE MASTERS | FIRST ROUND, 3-7:30 P.M. TODAY, ESPN
Green-jacket favorites
Until Dustin Johnson fell down the steps at his rental home and hurt his back Wednesday afternoon, the world’s top-ranked golfer was the clear favorite to win the Masters at Augusta National. He was in pain Wednesday evening and was told to “remain immobile” and take anti-inflammatories. Here are some of the players most likely to take advantage if he is unable to play. (AP/EXPRESS)
Dustin Johnson
Justin Rose
Things were going so well ...
A winner all over the world
The skinny: Not since Tiger Woods had a player looked more forceful going into the Masters. Johnson, 32, has won three tournaments in a row. But his bizarre accident Wednesday in which he hurt his back could derail his hot streak. Masters history: In seven tries, his best finish was last year, when he faded to tie for fourth.
The skinny: His putting is always a concern, but Rose, 36 and ranked 13th in the world, has played the Masters with consistency, never missing the cut. The British golfer won the 2013 U.S. Open and has won events on six continents. Masters history: His best showing in 11 tries was second in 2015. He shot 81 in Round 3 after leading in 2004.
Jason Day
Hideki Matsuyama Facing a new kind of pressure
Seeking his second win in a major
The skinny: He was hot early this season, finishing first or second in four of five tournaments before cooling off. The native of Japan, just 25, is ranked fourth in the world but has never faced this kind of pressure to contend in a major. Masters history: In five tries, his best finish was fifth in 2015; he made the cut twice as an amateur.
The skinny: Ranked third in the world, at 29 he is the best of the young players who haven’t won a Masters (he has a major, the 2015 PGA Championship). He recently pulled out of Match Play because his mother was having cancer surgery. Masters history: He tied for second in 2011 and lost a two-shot lead with three holes left in 2013.
Wizards’ D has slipped at bad time With six days left in the regular season, the Wizards (47-31) are assured of finishing no worse than fourth in the East and hosting a firstround playoff series. But they aren’t roaring into the postseason, having lost five of their past 10 games. More worrisome entering tonight’s game at the Knicks is the Wizards’ defensive slippage. They beat the Hornets on Tuesday but gave up at least 60 firsthalf points for the third time in four games. Since the All-Star break, the Wizards are 27th in the NBA in points allowed and 29th in opponent field-goal percentage. Their defensive rating, 10th before the break, has fallen to 27th. Coach Scott Brooks, below, acknowledges the issue: “The game is about defense.” (EXPRESS/ THE WASHINGTON POST)
Adam Scott
Rory McIlroy
Knows joy and agony at Augusta
Veteran aims to heat up his game
Trying to complete a career slam
The skinny: One of the game’s glamorous stars at 23, he admittedly was rattled by his meltdown on the back nine at Augusta last year. He has said he is looking forward to getting this Masters over with — no matter how he finishes. Masters history: He lost leads on Sunday in 2014 and last year, but in 2015 he led every round.
The skinny: He has gone more than a year since winning back-to-back on the Florida swing and missed the cut last week in Houston, but he still is ranked ninth in the world. Scott, 36, hits the ball beautifully; his problem can come on the greens. Masters history: He has one win in 15 tries, making a 20-foot putt on No. 18 in ’13 to force a playoff he won.
The skinny: He has played only three events in 2017 after recovering from a rib injury, but he was in the top 10 in two of those tournaments. The world’s No. 2 player, still just 27, has won four majors, but never the Masters. Masters history: His top finish was a tie for fourth in 2015. His 80 on Sunday in 2011 blew a four-shot lead.
Jordan Spieth
Rain at the Masters on Wednesday washed out much of practice, along with the Par 3 Contest
Jon Rahm A rookie on a roll has a chance
The skinny: The last player to win the Masters in his debut was Fuzzy Zoeller, who was 27, in 1979. Rahm, a Spaniard who played at Arizona State, is 22. He turned pro in June and already is 12th in the world. Since January, he has won at Torrey Pines and finished second and tied for third in two World Golf Championships. Masters history: None.
Forecast for the first two rounds at Augusta is for strong winds but not rain

Defenseman Kris Letang’s goal in Game 6 of the 2016 Stanley Cup Final clinched a fourth championship for the Penguins. He will have a far different view as the Penguins try to defend their title when the playoffs start next week. The three-time All-Star will undergo surgery to repair a herniated disk in his neck and is out four to six months, rendering him a spectator as Pittsburgh tries to become the first team in nearly 20 years to win back-to-back Cups.

Patrick Ewing, flanked by school president John J. DeGioia, left, and AD Lee Reed, recreates his pose from 1981.
but this university, to me, would be foolish,” athletic director Lee Reed said. “At the same time, Patrick is his own man.” At the news conference, Ewing, 54, held a Georgetown pennant overhead, copying his pose from his announcement in 1981 that he would play at Georgetown after his high school career in Cambridge, Mass. His predecessor, Thompson III, was fired two weeks ago after 13 seasons, one Final Four appearance, and just one trip to the NCAA Tournament in the past four years.
Ewing’s own son, Patrick Jr., was on the younger Thompson’s staff but will not be allowed to work for his father because of nepotism rules. This is Ewing’s first college coaching job and first as a head coach at any level, after 15 years as an assistant in the NBA, most recently with the Charlotte Hornets. He inherits a roster that is short on scholarship players. “Next year,” he acknowledged, “is going to be a rough year.” Ewing said he intends to run a team “similar to the style that we play in the NBA — I want it
to be up-tempo, push the ball, shoot 3s when you have them.” He said he also wants to see his team — and the Big East as a whole — regain its rugged image of past years, when “Hoya Paranoia” was referred to proudly. “No one liked us,” he recalled. Ewing conceded that recruiting will be new to him, and challenging. He said he hopes to attract more players from D.C., Baltimore and Virginia. “All about going out and selling your program,” Ewing said, “and I think that I’m a great salesman.” HOWARD FENDRICH (AP)

The Dominican Republic led with 93 players, followed by Venezuela (77) and Cuba (23), the commissioner’s office said. Others with the most representation were Puerto Rico (16), Mexico (nine), Japan (eight) and Canada (six).

GEORGETOWN Patrick Ewing, Georgetown’s new basketball coach, and John Thompson Jr., Ewing’s coach with the Hoyas all those decades ago, greeted each other with a bear hug. “Great job,” Thompson said softly. “Great job.” This reunion took place Wednesday, steps from a glass case displaying the NCAA Tournament trophy the two men helped earn, and moments after Georgetown’s president and athletic director held a news conference to formally introduce Ewing. He pronounced himself ready to “rebuild” the Hoyas after they “underachieved last year” under his predecessor — who just so happens to be Thompson’s son, John Thompson III. “Had a few down years, and they decided to make change,” Ewing said. “It’s a new era now.” And yet this hiring was, in many ways, about continuing a long-standing connection to the older Thompson and Georgetown’s heyday, when Ewing was the 7-foot, shot-blocking center on the 1984 national championship team and made two other appearances in the title game. “The bedrock foundation that this program was built on is John Thompson Jr. For us to walk away from a strength, a pillar, of not only this basketball program

Sherman turned 29 last week, has a relatively team-friendly contract over the next two seasons and has shown he still is capable of shutting down one side of the field. Nevertheless, he said last week that he would understand if Seattle wanted to trade him after a season in which he had a few in-game confrontations with his teammates and coaches.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER
One time, years ago, I saw a flock of swans gracefully gliding across a glassy lake. Hoping to get a better look at their pristine beauty, I tossed some bread their way. That was a mistake. Swans, it turns out, are savage, muscular animals. They honked and hissed and beat me with their wings until I surrendered my entire sandwich and fled. I recently discovered that I am equally capable of animal ruthlessness, during my attempt to ride a swan boat at the Tidal Basin. It was a gorgeous spring day. The cherry blossoms were at their peak, and everyone in town knew it. I had made a reservation weeks before with Boating in D.C., and requested one of their swan boats rather than a regular blue paddleboat. In addition to being more stylish, the swan boats have small motors that give you the option to cruise or paddle, depending on your mood. (They are also more expensive at $34 per hour, compared with $18 for a twoperson paddle boat or $30 for a four-person boat. Boats are available daily through Oct. 9, 10 a.m.-6 p.m.)
“There are only three swan boats, so they are first come, first serve,” the person on the reservation line informed me. I could reserve a regular boat and then trade up for a swan boat if one was available, he explained. He also said the swan boats hold only two adults. That sparked my first act of cygnetrelated savagery. The whole excursion had been my friend Tori’s idea, so I disinvited my husband. “You didn’t really want to go anyway, right?” I said, not giving him a chance to reply. About 15 minutes before our reservation time, Tori began sending me panicked texts: “Where are you? They are about to give away our boat!” “I’m in the Uber!” I said. Actually I was waiting for the Uber outside my apartment building, where I had run into my pregnant friend Elena and her mom. Coincidentally, they were also heading to the Tidal Basin to go paddle boating, and they didn’t have a reservation. It occurred to me that they’d be waiting for an hour at least, and that if I used my reservation to get a regular four-person boat, we could all ride together. I pushed that swan-abdicating generosity

Paddle royal: It turned ugly, but I got my swan
Swan boats pro tip If you want to ride a swan, be prepared to fight like one. from my mind. “Sorry, no time to chat!” I said, running for the car. When I arrived at the Tidal Basin, I sprinted across the street (against traffic, while being yelled at by a crossing guard) and to the dock. There, Tori was arguing with a couple about who had arrived first. A Boating in D.C. employee sided with the couple because they had checked in first, whereas Tori had gone directly to the boat. The smug swan smugglers paddled away, causing ethereal white flowers to bob in their wake. Fuming, I stormed up to a boat attendant — or possibly just someone wearing a blue polo shirt — and demanded that we
get the next available swan. “OK, lady,” the man said. “But it could be a while.” For the next 30 minutes, we watched the three swan boats putter around the Tidal Basin, getting excited every time one turned in our direction, and cursing every time one meandered farther away. Finally, one of the swans returned to the dock. “That one’s ours!” I shouted, several times, in order to scare off potential swan rustlers. We alighted in our swan and glided along the Tidal Basin wall, marveling at the gorgeous blossoms falling from the cherry trees and settling in the water around us. The sanguine surroundings, however, didn’t fully dissipate our aggression. “Let’s go ram somebody!” Tori said. I decided we should capture the moment instead, but getting us, the boat and the blossoms all in the same frame proved to be difficult.
I flagged down a family in a regular paddleboat and passed them my camera. As we set ourselves up for the perfect picture, I noticed that our boat was drifting perilously close to the trees. “Reverse! Reverse!” I yelled. Tori was focused on her pose, so, taking my own orders, I put our motor into reverse and narrowly avoided a smashup with the cherry trees, which is probably a federal offense. We spent the rest of our hour on the water enjoying the gorgeous day and the views of the monuments. Other tourists in regular boats, paddling hard and getting nowhere fast, appraised our pretty boat and handy motor with naked envy. “How did you get the swan boat?” they asked. “Oh, we just got lucky,” we breezily replied. Next: The Staycationer takes a D.C. duck boat tour.

Had you seen “Chicago” before you joined the cast? I saw it when Usher did it [as lawyer Billy Flynn on Broadway in 2006]. That was the first time I got the itch. You have to be very brave to do Broadway or a musical. That’s the real show business. You don’t have a lot of tricks. You have to really trust it and bring your best foot forward every night. Why did Roxie seem like a good fit? We were in the same place at the same time with our dreams. We were both visualizing what our life could be if this, that and the third thing happened. We were doing some sort of eclipse with each other — even though she did shoot somebody. I didn’t do all that. But having my own show, what she was singing about, I was doing in my own life.
It’s OK to be nosy.
Did you have to make adjustments getting into the Broadway routine? The show was all I really focused on, to keep my voice up. I had to pick and choose where to talk, and how to talk to my daughter, sleep a lot. Sleep really brings the clarity in your voice. And just 100 percent give yourself to the moment. You can’t think ahead. Your video for [2016 single] “Beggin & Pleadin” is influenced by the blues singer Shug Avery in “The Color Purple,” and it also feels a bit like “Chicago.” Is the Broadway take on jazz and blues a new influence for you? That’s definitely a new influence for me. … I want to add theater to everything I do. There’s nothing like it. It’s not just about you. It’s about making everyone look good. Everything now is about competition, but theater is more about the story than about the person playing the part. Was getting into a musical someday on your mind during “Cinderella”? Not necessarily. That gave me a little taste of what it would be like, but Broadway is a completely different beast. But at same time: perfect timing, because I was really ready. I don’t know if I could have put that kind of discipline in at an earlier time. It wouldn’t have been as solid back in the day. Now I have so many dreams for Broadway.

How did you get started with “Chicago”? One day I woke up and felt tired of being tired, and I decided to get my life together: going to the gym, changing my inner dialogue to myself, affirming I was getting ready for something big. Then “Chicago” presented itself. I was nervous. I had never done Broadway before, and I didn’t know the discipline it would take to do eight shows a week. But I was surprisingly equipped for it, and it changed me for the better. It was learning how to trust the moment and trust the work I put into it. I plan to take this with me wherever I go.

Lasting pieces of the Great War One hundred years ago today, America declared war on Germany, joining the conflict now known as World rld War I. It was a huge moment in American history, and one that many people living today don’t know much about, says Peter Jakab, chief curator for the National Air and Space Museum. “It’s really the turning point in which the U.S. becomes a major player on the world stage,” he says. The Great War, which ultimately involved dozens of countries, marked the true beginning of the 20th century, Jakab says, and set the stage for mass industrialization, women’s suffrage frage and the emergence of America as a global power. In appreciation of its lasting impact, several Smithsonian museums eums and the Library of Congress are putting some of their most prized and delicate WWI artifacts on display.

Woodrow Wilson’s ‘Fourteen Points’ and Nobel Peace Prize, from ‘Echoes of the Great War: American Experiences of World War I’

National Air and Space Museum, Independence Avenue at Sixth Street SW; Thu. through Nov. 11, 2018, free.
Woodrow Wilson’s first draft of his “Fourteen Points” (written in shorthand) served as a blueprint for world peace meant to bolster the morale of Allied forces. The document and speech outlined a plan for the freedom of the seas, free trade and a reduction of armaments. Wilson also laid the groundwork for the League of Nations, an accomplishment that garnered the president his 1919 Nobel Peace Prize (also on display) even though America never joined.
Archie Sweetman etched this self-portrait on the wall of a quarry where he and other American troops lived underground in France when not fighting in the trenches nearby. This is one of many subterranean drawings that will be on display through recent photographs taken by American explorer Jeff Gusky. Soldiers scratched many things on the walls of their temporary homes, including Yankees scores, images of sexy women and U.S. flags. After the war, Sweetman returned to his hometown of Boston largely unscathed and went on to become a professional artist.

More than 200 so-called “Hello Girls” donned the uniform of the Army Signal Corps and helped connect generals to troops fighting on the front lines of World War I. These women, clad in high-heeled boots and wool skirts, stayed at their posts despite shelling and, at one point, even when their headquarters was on fire. After the war, their contribution was quickly forgotten, and they were denied military benefits. Many other women served as doctors, nurses and drivers for various branches of the military but they often lacked official rank and weren’t issued uniforms — they had to buy the outfits themselves.

National Postal Museum, 2 Massachusetts Ave. NE; Thu. through Nov. 29, 2018, free.
The Postal Museum’s exhibit features letters written to and from soldiers on the front lines. Soldiers rarely wrote about the terrors of war and instead inquired after the health of their loved ones, says curator Lynn Heidelbaugh. Among the letters on display is this note written by Edgar Thornton, an African-American soldier from Virginia who fought on the front lines in France. To his son, he writes, “dadie has been very sick but i am about well now and i truly hope when these few lines reaches your little hands they will find you well.”

His allspice dram is unlike all the others
Next week, D.C. is the epicenter of craft beer
More than 10,000 brewers, sales reps and beer-industry workers will flood into town for the annual Craft Brewers Conference, a four-day event that starts Monday at the Washington Convention Center. (The traveling event was last held in D.C. in 2013.) While the seminars, keynote speeches and trade show are closed to the public, the week is filled with happy hours, tap takeovers and other events. Want to try IPAs and saisons that are rarely on tap in D.C. or drink a limited-release beer while listening to the band that brewed it? Here’s your chance. FRITZ HAHN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

ChurchKey, 1337 14th St. NW; Mon., 2 p.m., free admission.
City Tap House, 901 Ninth St. NW; Tue., 5 p.m., free admission.
Indie Dance Baltimore Invasion
How do you get the week off to the best possible start? ChurchKey goes for the gold medal by tapping at least 30 beers from five of the country’s hottest, most sought-after breweries: Maine’s Bissell Brothers, New York’s Other Half and Suarez Family, Massachusetts’ Trillium and Virginia’s The Veil. Doors open at 2 p.m., and you can expect a long line just to get in.
Fun fact: Brewers from DC Brau, Manor Hill, Waredaca and Vanish all worked at Flying Dog earlier in their careers. The official beer of the Craft Brewers Conference is a collaboration between those five breweries, dubbed Family Tree. The Belgian pale ale is being served at only one place outside of the conference: City Tap House, where it will be joined by a trio of drafts from each brewery.
Haze for Days Brookland Pint, 716 Monroe St. NE; Mon., 11 a.m., free admission.
If you love soft, juicy New Englandstyle IPAs, head to Brookland for this special tap takeover, which features the D.C. debut of the Brookland Pint-Aslin collaboration Joose Pun and a rare Washington appearance of Lawson’s Sip of Sunshine from Vermont. Civil Society, Heist, LIC Beer Project and SingleCut will also have multiple beers on tap.
Soused Beer Release DC9, 1940 Ninth St. NW; Tue., 9 p.m., $12-$15.
Before founding Virginia’s Pen Druid brewery, the Carney brothers — Van, Lain and Jennings — toured the world as the psych-rock band Pontiak. They’re playing together at DC9 for a party that includes the release of Soused, a collaboration between Pen Druid, Stone, Right Proper and guitarist Greg Anderson of Sunn O))).
Rock and Roll Hotel, 1353 H St. NE; Wed., 9 p.m., $15.
3 Stars Brewing Company, 6400 Chillum Place NW; April 13, 5-10 p.m., $15.
While many craft beer music events are focused on metal or bluegrass, Union Craft Brewing’s takeover of the Rock and Roll Hotel shows off a much more diverse side of its home city. Five bands, including hip-hop duo Bond St. District and the noise-pop group Surf Harp, will perform; the four DJs include Animal Collective’s Geologist, rapper Blaqstarr and Baltimore club heavy James Nasty.
In honor of the conference, 3 Stars Brewing created collaboration beers with its friends at J. Wakefield, Other Half, Ocelot and Aslin. Get tastes of all of those brews, plus ciders from Graft Cider, when the crew opens its brewery for a minifestival with food trucks, DJs and a performance by School of Rock students. (Admission includes one beer and a commemorative glass.)
Craft Beer All-Stars Vol. 3
Meridian Pint, 3400 11th St. NW; April 13, 2 p.m., free admission.
Sovereign, 1206 Wisconsin Ave. NW; Wed., 4 p.m., free admission.
This highlight of The Sovereign’s outstanding lineup of events features more than two dozen beers from Jester King, Jolly Pumpkin, Tired Hands and The Veil, including a Jester King-Tired Hands collaboration and the first batch of The Veil’s lambic-inspired ale Naissance.
#CBC17 IPA Festival
A day for the hopheads: Meridian Pint’s most ambitious event yet features 60 IPAs from 30 breweries on tap on both levels and pouring on the restaurant’s patio. Surly, Creature Comforts, Melvin, The Answer, Westbrook and Modern Times are among the big names joining such locals as Ocelot, Manor Hill and RAR.
DRINKS Lukas B. Smith, who has worked at bars across the city, is known for tinkering with the bitters, syrups and liqueurs that go into his cocktails. Now’s your first chance to take one of his concoctions home. Rum distillery Cotton & Reed, where Smith runs the bar program, will bottle and sell his allspice dram. This bar staple is Jamaican in origin, and is commonly used to give tiki drinks their rich spiciness. Smith thinks his version can do a lot more. Where most allspice drams on the market are sugary and primarily clove-flavored, his blend — which he makes from Cotton & Reed’s white rum — is brightened by dried lime, ginger, black peppercorn and other spices. “Wherever you can have bitterness, wherever you want pepper or ginger, you could use this,” Smith says. Much like liqueurs such as Aperol and Campari, allspice dram works best as an accent in cocktails. Smith uses it to add some bitterness to rum cocktails, because so many of his customers have bad memories of saccharine rum and Cokes. “I want to make drinks that are satisfying to people with less sugar than they’d expect,” Smith says. “Being surprised by a drink will have a longer impact [in your memory] than just enjoying it.” Cotton & Reed (1330 Fifth St. NE) will host a release party for the dram Sunday from 4 p.m. to midnight, slinging cocktails that feature the new product. Pick up a bottle (750 mL, $35) on your way out. LORI McCUE (EXPRESS)

‘Chuck Berry: Hail! Hail! Rock ’n’ Roll’ It’s hard to say Chuck Berry’s death last month was a tragedy — after all, the man was 90, and he lived most of that life as a rock ’n’ roll god. Plus, he’s actually immortal, thanks in part to the 1987 concert film/documentary “Chuck Berry: Hail! Hail! Rock ’n’ Roll.” The movie captures Berry performing on his 60th birthday in St. Louis, his hometown, with special guests including Keith Richards and Eric Clapton. There are also behind-the-scenes interviews with Berry and those who worship at his altar. It’s a rare bigscreen treat. Miracle Theater, 535 Eighth St. SE; Fri., 9:30 p.m., $8.

SLATE PRESENTS ‘Waves for Water’
‘Twelfth Night’
Red Bull isn’t just for mixing with vodka and drinking so much your overly caffeinated eyes can see music. The energy drink company is in the social consciousness game; its latest film is “Waves for Water,” a documentary about Jon Rose, a pro surfer who founded an organization (also called Waves for Water) that delivers clean water wherever it’s needed. The group started small, asking travelers to pack filters in their luggage to distribute. Preceding the film, Rose will take part in a panel talk on access to water and food worldwide.
If it’s a Shakespearean comedy, someone’s gonna be cross-dressing. That’s certainly the case with “Twelfth Night,” where a young woman named Viola is in a shipwreck that she believes killed her twin brother. She decides to dress up as a guy because that’s how comedy works. For this National Theatre stage production, being beamed from London into cinemas around the world, director Simon Godwin embraced the gender-swapping by transforming Malvolio, usually a man, into a woman; the usually-female Feste has been switched to a guy. Shakespeare would have approved.

Jay Farrar has cemented his status as an alt-country pioneer, thanks to his work with Jeff Tweedy in Uncle Tupelo. When that group disbanded in the mid-’90s, Tweedy formed Wilco, while Farrar started Son Volt to continue exploring the intersection of twang and fuzz. But on the band’s latest, February’s “Notes of Blue,” Son Volt explores the blues. Throughout the album’s concise 30 minutes, Farrar uses
various shades of the genre to color his brawny vocals and worldweary lyrics. 9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW; Tue., 7 p.m., $25.

At Verizon Center, the new songs are bound to be bracketed by “Suck My Kiss,” “Give It Away” and other Rick Rubin-produced stompers. Verizon Center, 601 F St. NW; Wed., 8 p.m., $52-$102.

For the 39-year-old’s first solo tour since becoming a member of Dead and Company, Mayer is trying to fuse all those influences into one supersized show. Split up into chapters (or sets), Mayer weaves new material from his “The Search for Everything” EPs with hits and covers from throughout his career. First, he’s backed by his full band, then he plays solo, then he breaks out his guitar god chops for a set with the John Mayer Trio. He’s also been varying the setlists each night, so there’s no guessing what he’ll play when he takes the stage at Verizon Center on Thursday.

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. 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)

A tragedy in being famous BOOKS The portrait on the cover of Alec Baldwin’s new memoir does not show a celebrity basking in the glow of a long and lustrous career. Instead of seducing the reader with his cool blue eyes and trademark smirk, Baldwin is looking away, brow knit, as if he’s troubled by the mere existence of his book, released Tuesday. The portrait is a n appropriate warning. If Baldwin’s “Nevertheless” had a subtitle, it would be “A Portrait of the Artist as a Defeated Egotist.” After nearly four decades in the spotlight, Alexander Baldwin III is something of an American treasure: an entertainer beloved by the public, in multiple media and genres, a step below Pacino and Nicholson in esteem, but rich, famous and talented nonetheless. And yet Baldwin daydreams about living a different life. He wants to own a stationery store so he can sell “exquisite pens.” He wants to be a lawyer, a club owner, a clockmaker, the warden of a prison and a gallerist in Chelsea. Depends on the day, he writes in his preface. What’s consistent is Baldwin’s dissatisfaction with himself and his life. “I’m not actually writing this

book to discuss my work, my opinions, or my life,” Baldwin says, three pages in. “I’m writing it because I was paid to write it.” This rude honesty actually works in the book’s favor. It’s refreshing to read a celebrity memoir that is not painted in pastels and glossed with self-actualization. “Nevertheless,” because of Baldwin’s aimlessness, is many things: the

“I’m not actually writing this book to discuss my work, my opinions, or my life. I’m writing it because I was paid to write it.” ALEC BALDWIN, in his new memoir,
“Nevertheless,” candidly addressing the purpose of his book
confession of an Irish Catholic hothead, an appreciation of film and theater by a sincere aesthete, and a 288-page therapy session — wherein the reader becomes an armchair psychoanalyst unable to treat the patient. “I was nine years old and addicted to solitude,” Baldwin writes in the first chapter, after drawing a sketch of his afflicted mother. By the time he describes his grandfather as “a philatelist and a numismatist,” the author’s prickly erudition is in charge, for better or worse, as he scurries along the contours of his life. He compares Jennifer Jason Leigh’s acting style to Paul Muni’s, and Anthony Hopkins’ voice to the French horn solo from Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphony. Baldwin’s gripping description of a cocaine overdose during his “Knots Landing” days is a high point (pun intended), and the book provides extensive evidence that fame is less a dream and more a chronic condition. That Baldwin is both enraptured and besieged by his own celebrity is what makes him fascinating and combustible; the book itself is only occasionally so. By its last third, “Nevertheless” is checking boxes instead of leaping from and around them — which is a shame, because Baldwin is a fierce wit and proven raconteur. Baldwin’s memoir is readable but not memorable, a satisfactory attempt by a man who is capable of more and better. He would probably be the first to tell you that. DAN ZAK (THE WASHINGTON POST)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You may find that what you’ve been working so hard for over the past several months is not for you. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You have news for someone, but you must ensure that it’s the right time — and that he or she is in the right frame of mind — before delivering it. CANCER (June 21-July 22) What you have to say may sound wrong if you don’t say it in the most natural way you can. Someone close can help you stay on the right track.

Barry reveals internet isn’t always garbage
But internet is still garbage for Anne Anne Hathaway addressed the internet’s landscape of mean articles about her in an interview with Jezebel. “I think it’s weird that it continues to be talked about a little bit,” she said. “I am not eager, but I am ready for the conversation to move to a place beyond it.” The actress later added: “How the world feels about me has nothing to do with me. How other people treat me has nothing to do with me.” (EXPRESS)
Barry Manilow opened up about his sexuality for the first time in an interview with People magazine. In it, he said he hid being gay for decades because he thought he would be “disappointing fans.” The 73-year-old music legend married his longtime manager, Garry Kief, in a 2014 ceremony at their home in Palm Springs, Calif. Manilow said keeping their romance out of the media was stressful, as he’s always tried to keep his personal and public lives separate. “When [fans] found out that Garry and I were together, they were so happy,” he added. “The reaction was so beautiful — strangers commenting, ‘Great for you!’ I’m just so grateful for it.” (EXPRESS/AP)
At least not ALL of Kate’s eating habits are annoying
Kylie and Tyga have stopped playing house
In conversation with People magazine about her wellness and exercise regimes, Kate Hudson shared some details on her diet: “Sugar’s the worst — I wish it wasn’t, but it’s so brutal. Basically I don’t eat gluten, I don’t eat that much sugar, and I really don’t eat dairy. But then if I happen to be at a restaurant and they send out a dessert, I’m going to eat the dessert.” (EXPRESS)
Kylie Jenner and Tyga are “giving each other space,” Us Weekly reported. The rapper has reportedly moved out of the reality star’s Hidden Hills, Calif., home after living together for 10 months. A source said Tyga “feels he’s been belittled” on “Keeping Up With the Kardashians.” Another adds they haven’t broken up, they just aren’t “spending as much time together.” The two have been dating since 2014.

LIFE HACKS
And you thought the nail file you carry was handy Miranda Lambert told Sounds Like Nashville that she has her assistant carry emergency alcohol. “My assistant packs — I call it my nanny bag — she packs a bag of liquor for emergencies, for meltdowns and things like that,” she said. She said the bag was useful when her flight to last weekend’s ACM Awards in Las Vegas got canceled. She rented a bus instead. (EXPRESS)
