GMU finds new letters of the law Just one week after George Mason University announced that it was changing the name of its law school to the Antonin Scalia School of Law, it has revealed it is changing the name again to avoid an acronym for the school like ASSLaw or ASSoL. “The name initially announced has caused some acronym controversy on social media,” wrote Dean Henry Butler in a letter to alumni Tuesday. “The Antonin Scalia Law School is a logical substitute. We anticipate the naming will be effective on July 1, 2016 pending final approval by the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia.” The new acronym, ASLS, is already attracting more jokes on social media.

Opening date for the light-rail line outside D.C. set for March 2022 TRANSPORTATION Maryland’s Board of Public Works approved a $5.6 billion contract Wednesday for a team of companies to build and operate a light-rail Purple Line in the Washington suburbs. The board voted 3-0 after a 30-minute discussion. “This is going to be a nationally recognized project,” said state comptroller Peter Franchot. “The millennials around the country who have so many economic dreams are going to flock to the Maryland suburbs because of this project. This is an absolute game changer.” Maryland transportation secretary Pete Rahn said the 16-mile line between Montgomery and Prince George’s counties will provide a missing link in the region’s transit system. In praising Gov. Larry Hogan for his support of the rail plan, Rahn said, “I truly believe this is going to be a legacy project for your administration.” Some state lawmakers had questioned whether such a large and complex contract — it would span 36 years and be one of the most expensive government contracts ever in Maryland — can be adequately scrutinized

in a single meeting among the governor, state treasurer and comptroller. However, Maryland transportation officials said the contract needed approval Wednesday to keep the deal on schedule to reach financial close June 2. A later vote, state officials said, could jeopardize the 180-day financing approvals that a team of companies received to help pay for the line’s construction. With the board’s approval of the contract with the private team Purple Line Transit Partners, the Maryland Department of Transportation will now seek to finalize a “full funding grant agreement” with the Federal Transit Administration. That would secure $900 million in

recommended federal construction grants and would allow construction to begin later this year. The light-rail line would open to passengers by March 2022, according to the contract. The public-private partnership would make the Purple Line only the second U.S. transit project to involve private financing. The first, a commuter rail line in Denver, is set to open later this month. The Purple Line would run single-vehicle trains powered by overhead electrical wires eastwest inside the Capital Beltway. The 21 stations would include Bethesda, Silver Spring, the University of Maryland’s College Park campus and New Carrollton. KATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

WASHINGTONPOST.COM | THE FIX

On Cruz control? Not so fast

NAM Y. HUH (AP)

Sanders rolling into New York on a hot streak

AS SEN. TED CRUZ CELEBRATES A BIG WIN IN WISCONSIN, a battle for a majority of delegates at the Republican National Convention

looks more and more likely. Here are four reasons that a Cruz nominee should still worry vulnerable Senate Republicans — who have disdained Donald Trump — plus one reason they’d probably prefer Cruz, anyway. AMBER PHILLIPS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

He’s difficult.

He’s too narrow.

He’s one of them.

Dems can use him.

But... he’s not Trump.

Cruz is probably the least popular member of the Senate among both Democrats and Republicans. Just two of his 53 Senate GOP colleagues have endorsed him, and those two — Mike Lee of Utah and Lindsey O. Graham of South Carolina — waited until March. Graham made clear that he was holding his nose to support Cruz. Since running for Senate in 2012, Cruz has gone to war with his own party at least five high-profile times. For starters, he engineered the opposition that led to a 2013 government shutdown in an attempt to kill Obamacare.

Many see Cruz as a socially conservative politician who caters to the religious and tea party right, and not many other people. Republicans worry that Cruz’s far-right politics may make it tough for him to appeal to a broader electorate, especially because he hasn’t shown any inclination to support policies that are more agreeable to the moderate GOP. Some 51 percent of Americans already think of Cruz unfavorably, according to a Washington Post-ABC News poll. Cruz’s favorable rating (35 percent), is 11 points lower than Hillary Clinton’s.

Republicans can try to distance themselves from Trump and his spotty conservative record by arguing that he’s just not one of them. They can contrast their record with Trump’s and argue they don’t agree with his politics. That story gets harder for Republicans to tell if Cruz, whom no one would confuse for a Democrat, is their party’s nominee. Cruz could arguably make life harder for the handful of vulnerable Senate Republicans running for reelection in swingy or even blue states who don’t want to be lumped in with such a conservative candidate.

With Cruz’s win in Wisconsin, Senate Democrats are taking a break from trying to link their Republican colleagues to Trump and test-driving what they’d say about Republicans if Cruz were their nominee. Their first line of attack would be to punch through the party’s veneer of unity by pulling comments from Senate Republicans predicting Cruz would be worse than Trump for “our chances of keeping the majority.” The Senate Democrats’ campaign arm sent out a memo Tuesday with news clips saying as much.

Aside from the occasional government shutdown, Senate Republicans know what they’re getting from Cruz. He is a politician who has demonstrated that he can stick to his principles and navigate politically sticky situations with as much deftness as the next candidate. Republicans, in contrast, have no idea what they’re getting with Trump. One day he’s suggesting Muslims be banned from the country, the next he’s retweeting a quote from Mussolini. At least with Cruz, Republicans can formulate a plan. With Trump, all bets are off.

Fed cautious on rate hikes because of fears over global growth, newly released minutes show

POLITICS Bernie Sanders emerged from Wisconsin with a solid victory Tuesday, prolonging his dogged but improbable bid to catch Hillary Clinton in the fight for the Democratic nomination. Now, despite Clinton’s still-overwhelming lead in delegates, Sanders can claim the momentum of winning in six of the past seven states. The Wisconsin victory was certain to energize Sanders’ supporters two weeks ahead of what will be a key showdown in delegate-rich New York — a state where Sanders grew up, where Clinton was elected twice to the U.S. Senate, and where 247 delegates will be at stake. While catching Clinton in the delegate count remains a long shot, Sanders has chipped away at her one-time lead of more than 300 pledged delegates, which was down to 229 after Tuesday’s contest in Wisconsin, according to CNN. Clinton plans to campaign aggressively in New York, and the Brooklyn-born Sanders plans to make New York his home base over the next two weeks as well. At this time in 2008, Barack Obama’s pledged-delegate lead over Clinton fluctuated between 120 and 140, about half of Clinton’s current lead, which doesn’t include superdelegates, the elected officials and other party leaders who are not bound by their state’s results and who so far have broken heavily in Clinton’s favor.

nation+world New Treasury rules aimed at tax inversions wiped out incentives BUSINESS Top U.S. drugmaker Pfizer and Irish rival Allergan scrapped a record $160 billion deal torpedoed by new Treasury Department rules meant to block American companies from moving their corporate addresses overseas to avoid U.S. taxes. The rules issued Monday, aimed at stopping the companies’ “tax inversion” deal, wiped out its financial incentives and rationale for Pfizer Inc., though they had no impact on Allergan PLC.

That led Pfizer and Allergan to walk away “by mutual agreement” Wednesday. Pfizer, based in New York, will pay Allergan $150 million as reimbursement for its deal-related expenses. It was Pfizer’s third, and most expensive, attempt at an inversion, leaving analysts to speculate that Pfizer will drop the strategy. The merger would have moved Pfizer’s address, but not its operations or headquarters, to Ireland. Under that plan, Pfizer would have paid hundreds of millions of dollars less in U.S. corporate taxes. Tax inversions are a hot issue in the presidential race. President Barack Obama on Tuesday called them “insidious tax loopholes,”

adding that Treasury’s new rules are meant to make wealthy corporations shoulder their tax responsibility like ordinary citizens. Pfizer and Allergan on Wednesday began touting their prospects as solo companies. Neither is in dire straits. Allergan is close to closing a $40.5 billion deal to sell its generic drug business to Israel’s Teva Pharmacueticals Industries Ltd., the world’s top generic drugmaker. Pfizer said it will decide by year’s end whether to separate its established products business, which sells older, mostly off-patent drugs and accounted for nearly half of its sales and profit last year.

1st Syrian family of ‘surge’ policy heads to U.S. REFUGEE CRISIS The first Syrian family to be resettled in the U.S. under a speeded-up “surge operation” for refugees left Jordan on Wednesday for Kansas City, Mo., to start a new life. Ahmad al-Abboud, above, is being resettled with his wife and five children. He said he’s thankful to Jordan, where he has lived for three years after fleeing Syria’s civil war. But the 45-year-old from Homs, Syria, said he was happy to be heading to America. “I am ready to integrate in the U.S. and start a new life,” he said in Amman’s airport before the family boarded a flight to Kansas City. Al-Abboud, who had been living in Mafraq, north of Amman, was unable to find work, and the family was surviving on food coupons. He said he wanted to learn English and find a job to support his family. Since October, 1,000 Syrian refugees have moved to the U.S. from Jordan. President Barack Obama has set a target of resettling 10,000 Syrian refugees by Sept. 30. A resettlement center opened in Amman in February to help meet that goal, and about 600 people are interviewed every day at the center. While the resettlement process usually takes 18 to 24 months, the surge operation reduces the time to three months, said Gina Kassem, the regional refugee coordinator at the U.S. Embassy in Amman.

For tax cheats, look to U.S. NEW YORK

Judge rejects singer Kesha’s abuse claims

VINCENT YU (AP)

FINANCE The U.S. lambastes and strongarms countries that help drug lords and millionaire investors hide their money from tax collectors. Critics say it should look closer to home. America itself is emerging as a top tax haven alongside the likes of Switzerland, the Cayman Islands and Panama, those seeking reform of the international tax system say. And states such as Delaware, Nevada, South Dakota and Wyoming, in particular, are competing with each other to provide foreigners with the secrecy they crave. “There’s a big neon sign saying the U.S. is open to tax cheats,” said John Christensen, executive director of the Tax Justice Network. America’s openness to foreign tax evaders is coming under new scrutiny after the leak this week of 11.5 million confidential documents from a Panamanian law firm. The Panama Papers show how some of the world’s richest people hide assets in shell companies to avoid paying taxes. Christensen’s group, which campaigns for a global crackdown on tax evaders, said the United States ranks third in the world in financial secrecy, behind Switzerland and Hong Kong but ahead of notorious tax havens such as the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg.

Manhattan state Supreme Court Justice Shirley Werner Kornreich ruled in the singer’s civil-court clash with the producer, who denies the singer’s accusations and hasn’t been charged with any crime.

American banks don’t even collect the kind of information foreign countries would need to identify tax dodgers. Individual states, including Nevada, Wyoming and South Dakota, are making things worse, critics say. They compete with each other to make it easier to set up corporations. “We have states that set up corporations where there’s no information about ownership,” said Jack Blum, a Washington lawyer who specializes in financial crime. “The states make a lot of money doing that.” Nevada, for instance, makes it

easy to incorporate secretly and charges a $500 annual business license fee for corporations and $200 for other businesses. Lawmakers granted business entities greater protection against lawsuits in 2001, hoping to attract more of them and use incorporation filing revenue to raise teacher salaries. South Dakota said its favorable trust laws provide an attractive place for families to park and grow their wealth, and it can all be done outside the public eye. The state imposes no tax on assets held in trust and allows the entire court file to be sealed permanently with a simple petition. In 2014, a group of academics looked at tax havens for their book “Global Shell Games.” Posing as investors who wanted to set up businesses, they kept track

of whether the consultants helping them incorporate asked for basic information such as photo IDs or other documents that proved who they were. In the United States, only 25 percent did; in Delaware, only 6 percent. The U.S. Treasury Department said it plans to propose regulations requiring foreignowned “limited liability companies” to get tax identification numbers disclosing the identities of their owners. Once the rules are in place, Treasury said in a statement, the Internal Revenue Service will be better equipped to respond to requests for help from foreign governments. Still, Treasury said, Congress needs to come up with a broader, better solution. PAUL WISEMAN AND MARCY GORDON (AP)

Some savvy fliers figured out that a multi-city ticket — with several one-way legs under the same reservation — can be cheaper than one connecting ticket. To halt that practice, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines and United Airlines stopped allowing individual nonrefundable tickets to be combined. (AP)

THREE POINTERS

Jason Day thought about quitting golf when he was 23, but he survived that crisis of confidence.

Young guns are ready Jason Day, who won his first major last summer, is in his comfort zone at Augusta THE MASTERS Jason Day was lurking just outside Augusta National Golf Club, wondering if he wanted to go in. Even though he was set to play in his first Masters in 2011, Day thought it might be time to do something else. He already had won $5 million on the PGA Tour but was frustrated with the grind and only one victory. A meeting with his wife, his agent and his sports psychologist improved his frame of mind. And then, he recalled with a smile this week, “I went out there and finished second.” Five years later, Day, 28, is ranked No. 1 in the world and is a favorite in the Masters, which starts this morning. (TV coverage is 3 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., ESPN.)

Day, an Australian, is coming off his first major victory, the 2015 PGA Championship. Other key players include defending champion Jordan Spieth, 22, and four-time major winner Rory McIlroy, 26. Day said he is comfortable at Augusta five years after his crisis of confidence. “I know it sets up well for me,” he said. “It’s a course where I can compete and play well and win.” Working against him: The last top-ranked player to win at Augusta was Tiger Woods in 2002. Woods is out, still rehabbing his back, and this might be the most wide-open Masters since the pre-Tiger days. Spieth captured the first two majors of 2015 and nearly won

Players to watch Aside from top favorites Jason Day, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth, here are some other key contenders (odds by Sportsbook.ag). ADAM SCOTT, 12-1: The 35-year-old Aussie is ranked seventh in the world and won the Masters in 2013. BUBBA WATSON, 12-1: The world No. 4 won at August in 2012 and ’14. RICKIE FOWLER, 15-1: Ranked fourth in world but without a major — yet.

the other two. McIlroy is missing only the Masters from a career Grand Slam. Day and 2013 Masters champion Adam Scott are both two-time winners on the PGA Tour this year.

Two other Masters champs, Bubba Watson a nd C h a rl Schwartzel, also have victories in 2016. So does rising Japanese star Hideki Matsuyama. “There’s a lot of guys who have a lot of success here that really brought some strong finishes and motivation and momentum into this week,” said Spieth, who tied for second in his Masters debut in 2014 before cruising to victory with an 18-under score a year ago. McIlroy has won four majors but was blanked in that regard last year. Day and Spieth have eclipsed him for the moment. “I’d be lying if I said those two guys having success doesn’t motivate me,” McIlroy said. “I don’t want to be left behind.”

Time is short for personal goals CAPITALS With three games remaining in the Capitals’ regular season, time is running out for Braden Holtby and Alex Ovechkin to reach a pair of personal milestones. Holtby and the Capitals let an opportunity slip away Tuesday, blowing a 3-1 third-period lead in an eventual 4-3 overtime loss to the Islanders at Verizon Center. The defeat kept Holtby (47-96) from tying Martin Brodeur’s single-season record of 48 wins. “That one’s on me,” Holtby said after allowing four goals on 27 shots. “It’s one of those ones I’ll make up for in the future.”

APRIL 23 | 5:30PM | 20TH ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION OF FIRST HOME MATCH HALFTIME PERFORMANCE BY THE WASHINGTON REDSKINS MARCHING BAND

The Caps have three games left in the regular season; Braden Holtby needs two wins for an NHL record.

He will get another chance to tie Brodeur’s mark tonight at 7 (CSN) against the visiting Penguins, winners of seven straight and 13 of their last 14 games.

With back-to-back games this weekend — Saturday at St. Louis and Sunday at home against Anaheim — Holtby might start only twice more before the playoffs. To set an NHL record with 49 wins, he would have to win both. While his 47 wins are tops in the NHL this season, so, too, are Ovechkin’s 47 goals. Ovechkin, 30, scored twice Tuesday and needs three goals in three games to become the third player in NHL history with at least seven 50-goal seasons. “I think his game is ramping up,” coach Barry Trotz said.

UConn’s Stewart caps unique streak

Police say Abby Wambach admitted past drug use

Ron Darling: 1986 Mets chugged in-game beers

Abby Wambach, the retired star of the U.S. national soccer team, admitted to past use of cocaine and marijuana, according to court documents stemming from her arrest Sunday in Portland, Ore., on a misdemeanor charge of driving under the influence of intoxicants. Wambach, 35, has pleaded not guilty. Portland police, who stopped her after she allegedly ran a red light, said they routinely ask about past drug use. In the arrest documents, police wrote that Wambach said she first used marijuana when she was 24 and last used it at 25 and “tried cocaine at age 25.” (AP)

Baseball analyst and former Mets pitcher Ron Darling has written a new book about the behavior of the 1986 club that beat Boston in the World Series. In “Game 7, 1986: Failure and Triumph in the Biggest Game of My Life,” he writes that the Mets’ use of amphetamines — which weren’t then banned by MLB — was rampant. He also wrote that some Mets used alcohol to prepare for a late-inning at-bat, racing to the locker room “to chug a beer to ‘re-kick the bean.’ “ He wrote that the “rush of beer would kind of jump-start the amphetamines” to get a player “dialed in.” (EXPRESS)

Peerless again. Perfect again. UConn senior Breanna Stewart capped her career with a fourth straight national title — an unprecedented feat in Division I women’s basketball. “It was the perfect ending,” she said. “We had a goal coming in as freshmen and now as seniors we did that.” The 82-51 win over Syracuse on Tuesday night in Indianapolis finished another flawless season for Geno Auriemma and his Huskies. Until now, only the UCLA men’s team had won four in a row in D-I, rolling to seven consecutive titles from 1967 through ’73. With All-Americans Stewart, Moriah Jefferson and Morgan Tuck all departing, the next question for the Huskies is clear: Can they win five championships in a row? (AP)

up front Open your eyes to Turkey’s cinema ass A quick p s t’ a h w at going on

FILM Although Turkey’s film industry celebrated its centennial in 2014, most of the country’s directors remain little known outside the international film festival circuit. Organizers of the first Washington DC Turkish Film Festival, sponsored by the Turkish Embassy, are out to change that. The event, which kicks off on Monday, features eight new films from Turkish directors. “They’ve done a good job of

giving an overview of current Turkish cinema, which is both strong and quite varied,” says Tom Vick, film curator at the Smithsonian’s Freer and Sackler galleries, which are co-presenting two of the films. “The kinds of films they’ve included range from art-house movies to comedies, and I think it’s a good intro to contemporary Turkish cinema.” Several works focus on the often bleak reality of provincial life in Turkey. “Sivas” (Tue., 5 p.m.), the country’s submission in this year’s foreign-language Oscar race, tells the unsentimental story of an 11-year-old boy in rural Anatolia and his friendship with

flick “Baskin” (Tue., 7 p.m.), the directorial debut of Can Erenol, who will take part in a Q&A after the screening. “For what it is — a genre film, a really horrifying horror movie — it is very effective,” Vick says. “I don’t think people really thought that kind of film was made in Turkey.” Lighter fare includes “A Unique Life” (Wed., 7 p.m.), a comedic drama from director Cagan Irmak about a 50-something widow who goes back to college.

They’re frying the coop It may be decadent but we'd never turn up our nose at a plate of crispy fried chicken. These days, it's just as hard to say no to the wonderful, weird and, yes, somewhat wicked things Washington-area restaurants are doing with fried chicken sandwiches. Served on buttery brioche buns, flaky biscuits or pillowy doughnuts, and layered with the likes of bacon, pickles and ranch dressing, these you're-gonna-need-a-napkin creations are irresistible riffs on the classic chicken platter. Here are five of our favorites (read about more at goingoutguide.com). (EXPRESS/THE WASHINGTON POST)

Chef Cedric Maupillier had heard of Chick-fil-A, and he had seen the long lines outside the 14th Street store. But when he tried one, “I was disappointed by what people thought to be a very good fried chicken sandwich,” he said. So he added a fried chicken sandwich to Convivial’s happy hour menu. Maupillier brines his chicken for 24 hours and double-fries it for extra crunch; it’s stacked on an olive oil bun with a housemade ranch dressing, pickled shallots and a roulade of pickle and lettuce, which assures a proper distribution of flavors. Professional duty isn’t the only reason he wanted to make it: “I like to eat one sometimes. I wanted to add one so I could enjoy it for myself.” MAURA JUDKIS

Sous-chef Bin Lu is tight-lipped about the ingredients for the secret sauce on Pineapple and Pearls’ spicy fried chicken sandwich, though he did admit there are a lot of Yemeni-inspired spices in the aioli-like condiment. “We go for not only a spicy sauce, but one that’s heavily spiced,” he says. What results is a deep heat that lingers long after you’ve taken the last bite — even licking your lips leaves a pleasant little sting. The chicken is first brined to achieve a sweet and herbal flavor profile, similar to pickles. It’s then coated with buttermilk and padded with flour. “It creates that classic Popeyes chicken with all those little bits of shag,” Lu says. HOLLEY SIMMONS

One of Washington’s most celebrated chefs starting a food truck? It seems almost unfair to the competition. But that’s what Jose Andres did in the spring of 2012 when he launched Pepe, peddling “mobile sandwiches” and other lunchtime staples. Andres has tweaked the Pollo Frito, his fried chicken sandwich, since then, switching from a crusty flauta roll to a softer, flatter bread more reminiscent of a ciabatta. In between those warm, slender slices, the fried chicken breast is topped with a tomato brava sauce and green piparra peppers that add tang and a touch of heat. The sandwich comes wrapped in a paper cone for on-the-go eating, but it’s still a messy, multiplenapkin affair. JOHN TAYLOR

Woodward Takeout Food $10.75; 1426 H St. NW, 202-347-5355.

Fresh from a frying pan, bacon is one of life’s great pleasures. But often when draped across a sandwich, bacon is that dude who orders two more rounds when you already have a nice buzz on. When I first saw the bacon on my Chick Chick, I almost did a double take. One bite of the fried chicken sandwich, however, and I realized Jeffrey Buben is not a chef who trades on excess. He treats the bacon as a supporting player, not a scene-stealer looking to hog the spotlight. The sweet-tea-brined breast, moist and crispy, remains the star, surrounded by a complementary cast of mayo, cranberry relish, lettuce, pickles and two strips of bacon. TIM CARMAN

Right Proper Brew Pub $12; 624 T St. NW, 202-607-2337.

Everything you need to know about Right Proper’s signature sandwich is in the name: The Southern Fried Chick-Fillet is a “fancy” version of Chikfil-A’s classic chicken sandwich, with crispy, well-seasoned fried chicken, bread-and-butter pickles, lettuce and tomato on a brioche bun. The secret weapon is savory herbal flavors from Boursin cheese. It’s a rich, filling sandwich, but here’s the real advantage Right Proper has over Chik-fil-A: You can pair your meal with a pint of house-brewed beer. Right Proper owner Thor Cheston recommends Ornette, a spicy, rustic grisette with flavors “that don’t overwhelm” the batter or pickles. FRITZ HAHN

The durable Duran Duran MUSIC His name is Roger and he plays drums in a band, and now they’re touring all across our nifty land. Roger Taylor has been keeping the beat for ’80s mainstay Duran Duran since the band’s origins in 1978; now the group is touring again in support of its 14th album, last year’s “Paper Gods.” And things have changed, Taylor admits, as the band’s members have gotten older. No more midnight recording sessions, for one. “Now it’s more like a day job,” Taylor says. “For this album, it was two years in the making; we’d get to the studio in midday, do eight to nine hours of recording, five days a week.” The technology available in the studio has enabled the band to experiment in new ways, Taylor says. “When we started, you could do four tracks; now we can do 16,” he says. “The canvas has become huge. That can be a help, but it can also be a hindrance — we layer tracks upon tracks and get really absorbed in it, and then it’s ‘Oh, God, how are we going to play this live?’ ” The members of Duran Duran don’t really worry about staying contemporary in a world

“We could just play our greatest hits, but we’d go crazy playing oldies every night.” ROGER TAYLOR, drummer for Duran Duran, which is still touring nearly four decades after it formed

where other bands that started when they did are now fodder for “Where are they now?” shows. “I don’t think we ever thought about evolving,” Taylor says. “We just go where the music takes us. We could just play our greatest hits, but we’d go crazy playing oldies every night. On this tour our new songs have gone over as well as, if not better than, our old ones.” The temptation to rest on their multiplatinum laurels isn’t a great one, Taylor says. “We don’t want to do the same record over and over again,” he says. “Some people do that, and that’s fine for them. But not for us.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS) Verizon Center, 601 F St. NW; Fri., 7 p.m.; $29.95-$134.95.

Really (virtually) dark ‘The Nether’ presents a grim future where right and wrong blur

KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY FILM RIFFS

Wrecking crew In “Demolition,” out Friday, Jake Gyllenhaal plays a man who starts breaking stuff apart after his wife is killed in a car accident. Or maybe it’s because, like these movie characters, he’s just good at smashing.

SCOTT SUCHMAN

STAGE For your play about pedophilia, is it creepier to cast a child actress or an adult actress pretending to be a little girl? That’s the question playwright Jennifer Haley had to grapple with when workshopping her sci-fi crime drama “The Nether.” And the answer wasn’t what she was expecting. “It’s unintuitive, but having a child onstage gives audiences some distance,” she says. “Basically, the audience knows that there will be no simulated sex onstage with a child actor.” Either way, Haley was worried people would “run away screaming” from “The Nether” (at Woolly Mammoth through May 1) because of its very premise: A detective attempts to take down a virtual-reality world where people have sex with, and then dismember, children. Does it make it better that the people behind the avatars are all consenting adults? “I got to a place where I was asking, ‘Is this wrong or not?’ ” Haley says. “The fact I couldn’t answer it made me think, if I could present this argument well to an audience, I could get them hitting that same wall.” “The Nether” takes place in the near future, a bleak world where the Internet has morphed into a collection of immersive virtual-reality realms. A shadowy character called Papa has

created a sunny, sylvan paradise where people live out their darkest fantasies. When an Internet detective hauls Papa in for questioning, their respective motives become increasingly murky. For instance, does the detective want to protect the public, or just break Papa’s encryption? Then there are the scenes that take place in the virtualreality world — where interactions between Papa, his clients and his “children” walk the line between creepy and, well, kinda sweet. (Remember, the avatars are all actually adults.) Add to the drama the question of who is who, exactly, and you have a

high-concept thriller of a play. “When I was writing it, I was trying to create a brainteaser that people were going to be really interested in, not just horrified by,” Haley says. “The Nether” is constructed like a “CSI”-style police procedural — a format that’s great for plot puzzles but one that rarely allows for moral ambiguity. “There’s always some dead girl and … someone gets hauled into the interrogation room and, 52 minutes in, we’ve got our killer and he’s behind bars and everything’s all good again,” Haley says. “There’s something about that format that really annoys me.”

Flipping the usual “write what you love” advice on its head, Haley gave herself the challenge of writing in a style that she generally hates. “I tried to preserve the cliches but provide different outcomes,” she says. “Instead of having that ‘aha’ moment when you finally catch the criminal in his own snare of reasoning, there’s no ‘aha.’ There’s not really an answer, just a spiral of more and more questions.” SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

‘April and the Extraordinary World’

indies Landmark E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW; opens Fri., $9-$12 (select screenings dubbed). +arties Life in 1941 Paris wasn’t particularly easy. “April and the Extraordinary World” makes

it a bit more difficult by setting its story — based on the graphic novel of the same name — in an alternate, steampunk universe. April (Marion Cotillard) loses her scientist parents to a mysterious force; she then carries on their research with the help of her talking cat. When the government tries to stop her, she goes on the run, searching for her parents at the same time. The French film (with English subtitles) calls to mind some of Studio Ghibli’s best works with its visual lushness and a story that’s appropriate for kids without being childish.

He’s America’s grand ol’ Bard EXHIBITS Here’s a tidbit you might not know, from Georgianna Ziegler, curator of “America’s Shakespeare,” the new exhibit at the Folger Shakespeare Library: “Shakespeare was actually an immigrant” here. All right, so the Bard of Avon never set foot on Ellis Island (or any other part of the country), but “he’s part of the immigrant population of this country,” Ziegler says. “He was brought over by the English, and then got adapted by other immigrant groups.” “America’s Shakespeare,” which opens Thursday, is part of the Folger’s yearlong, eventspacked “The Wonder of Will,” a celebration commemorating the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare’s death in 1616. The exhibit looks at the unique way Americans have managed to make Shakespeare one of our own.

After the American Revolution, “the Americans were trying to create an identity for themselves,” Ziegler says, and Shakespeare and the subject matter of his plays didn’t fit in. “Some people thought he was too much tied to Britain — he talked a lot about kings and royalty, and some Americans thought he wasn’t democratic enough.” Attitudes evolved, though, largely because “Shakespeare has been adopted and adapted so much,” Ziegler says. “Shakespeare was performed on the banks of the Mississippi River, in mining camps. People moving west had copies of his plays. I think nowadays most people don’t think of him as being this elitist, British author.” Of course, because it’s America, we started using Shakespeare to sell stuff early on. “The very first representation

“America’s Shakespeare” features items that reflect the Bard’s prominence in American culture, including (clockwise from left) an 1864 ad for the celebration of Shakespeare’s 300th birthday, Ada Rehan’s Viola/Cesario costume from an 1893 production of “Twelfth Night,” a copy of the first American edition of Shakespeare from 1796 and a 1916 BibleShakespeare calendar.

of Shakespeare was an advertisement used for a stationer in Philadelphia. It was published in a magazine in 1787,” Ziegler says. “There were lots of advertisements that drew on Shakespeare, because it was thought it added a sense of class to whatever it was you were advertising.” Other products using his image in ads included chewing tobacco and Coke. Ziegler thinks America’s relationship with Shakespeare won’t necessarily change in the decades to come, but his reach will expand. “We are so globally connected that Shakespeare is out there, all over the world, in places you wouldn’t even think to look,” she says. “He’s going to continue to be part of everybody’s conversation.”

One of the special events of the “Wonder of Will” celebration is the world premiere of the Reduced Shakespeare Company’s new play, “William Shakespeare’s Long Lost First Play (abridged).” Here’s the (fictional) premise: A manuscript of Shakespeare’s debut has been discovered in a British parking lot; since the play is over 100 hours long, though, the troupe has boiled it down to a 90-minute show. What follows is a tour of all of Shakespeare’s tropes — so expect masks, twins, cross-dressing and at least one person to fake his or her death either successfully (comedy) or unsuccessfully (tragedy).

PODCASTS Journalist Ann Friedman and digital strategist Aminatou Sow met in D.C. in 2008 at a “Gossip Girl” viewing party. The instant besties later moved to opposite ends of the country, but since May 2014, they’ve kept in touch via “Call Your Girlfriend,” a podcast they record long-distance from their closets. Recent episodes of the show, a feminist’s delight, have included an interview with Hillary Clinton strategist Huma Abedin and a discussion about period pain. Their live recording at Sixth and I this weekend has sold out, but we called our girlfriends and asked what questions they had for the sage duo. I want to wear makeup. Does that make me less of a feminist? SOW: Do you feel good when you wear makeup? Great. Do you feel burdened by it? Not great. FRIEDMAN: When I look at the things I enjoy — like lipstick — I think about why I enjoy it and why I’m doing it. I don’t think you feel bad about doing it if it makes you feel awesome. What are your thoughts about crying in the office? SOW: It’s all about context: If you’re having an emotional day and you cry, that’s 100 percent human. If you work at a place where crying is a part of your job, you should examine what you’re doing. People complain about vocal fry — a low speech vibration at the end of a word — particularly in women. As women in broadcasting, what do you say to that? FRIEDMAN: I think it’s something both men and women do. To say

I don’t think life works that way. Women have been told to volunteer for s---ty things they don’t want to do and they’ll be rewarded. That’s not necessarily true. Who are your current girl crushes? SOW: All the women I want in my life are in my life. But I guess the forever answer is Oprah. FRIEDMAN: Rebecca Traister [author of “All the Single Ladies”] is a friend, but I had a crush on her when she answered a tricky question about single women at an event recently.

Robert Irwin is simply complex Good luck finding the words to describe his piece at the Hirshhorn EXHIBITS Artist Robert Irwin’s newest work, created specifically for the Hirshhorn, is almost impossible to describe. Evelyn Hankins, curator of “Robert Irwin: All the Rules Will Change,” found that out when it came time to describe the piece for her exhibition’s catalog. “You can’t write about this work,” Hankins says. “It’s beyond language. It’s a simple and elegant gesture that makes you see the [museum’s] architecture in totally different ways.” That’s Irwin’s goal. The 87-year-old started his career as a painter in the traditional sense, but since the 1960s he’s been testing ways to create experiences for his audiences that challenge their perceptions. “In 1970, he kind of painted himself out of a job,” Hankins says. “He didn’t want to make objects anymore, so he asked himself, ‘Can I be an artist without making objects?’ ” These days, the San Diegobased artist works frequently with large swaths of scrim (a semi-transparent fabric often used to divide the stage in theatrical performances) and only creates pieces for very specific sites — part of the top floor of the Hirshhorn being the latest. In addition to the nearly indescribable installation, called “Square the Circle,” the exhibition features an examination of Irwin’s career from 1958 to

1970. At the beginning of that period, Irwin experimented with abstract paintings that were intended to be picked up and held by the viewer. (At the Hirshhorn, these are unfortunately enclosed in glass display cases.) As time passed, his works became more conceptual as bright colors turned muted, and he did away with frames and started working more with light and shadow, making the border between the work and the wall it hung on disappear. But even as he veered from the traditional, Irwin always considered himself a painter. “He was asking questions about the very conventions of painting,” Hankins says, all while “training himself to be a careful looker and perceiver.” Most of Irwin’s later works are extremely difficult to describe (and to photograph, which is why you see only his earlier works on these pages). “Square the Circle,” a project more than two years in the making, consists of an extremely large piece of scrim that’s been meticulously placed and strategically lit. As you walk around it and take it in from different angles, you can get lost in the experience.

It’s surprisingly captivating for something so simple and subtle, and it can leave you awestruck and a bit disoriented.

An exhibit in one picture: Ahmed Mater’s ‘Golden Hour’

In his show at the Sackler, the Saudi artist captures a nation in profound transition

Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, 1050 Independence Ave. SW; through Sept. 18, free.

AHMED MATER

The first-ever solo museum exhibit by a Saudi artist in the U.S., Ahmed Mater’s “Symbolic Cities” presents an alternate narrative to the images of the desert kingdom familiar to most Americans. On view at the Sackler Gallery, the fascinating photographs and videos reveal the recent urban development of the Saudi landscape, offering what curator Carol Huh terms “an essential archive — or unofficial history, as [Mater] calls it — of contemporary Saudi Arabia … at a time of profound social and political change.” “Symbolic Cities” focuses on Mecca, Islam’s holiest city and the destination of the annual hajj pilgrimage made by observant Muslims; the city has long intrigued outsiders because it is off-limits to non-Muslims. The exhibit’s centerpiece is “Golden Hour,” a large photograph chronicling the transformation of central Mecca, shot by Mater in 2011 from atop a construction crane placed where a mountain once stood. Here we take a closer look at the photograph, which Huh calls “the iconic image of the series.” VANESSA H. LARSON (EXPRESS)

The Kaaba

Clock tower

Economic boom

Urban sprawl

The Kaaba, the black, cube-shaped shrine in the center of Mecca’s Grand Mosque, is the most sacred site for Muslims, who believe it was built by Abraham. Circling around the Kaaba seven times is part of the hajj ritual, one of the five pillars of Islam. The Saudi government has constructed a massive complex around it to manage the more than 2 million pilgrims who descend there each year. Photos of Mecca typically show close-ups of the Kaaba surrounded by a mass of people; Mater challenges this representation with a distant shot that reveals the intricacies of its environment.

Saudi authorities tore down an 18th-century citadel to build the Abraj al-Bait, or Mecca Royal Clock Tower. The second-tallest building in the world when it opened in 2012, the commercial complex includes luxury hotels, apartments and a shopping mall. In another work in the exhibit, “Nature Morte,” Mater frames a garish, green-tinted nighttime shot of the Kaaba through the window of a $3,000-a-night room in the complex’s Fairmont Hotel, with an incongruous plush red velvet armchair and perfectly arranged fruit bowl on a small lacquered table in the foreground.

Mater foregrounds the vast number of cranes and construction sites in downtown Mecca to highlight the almost absurd amount of expansion that has overtaken the city in recent years. “Nothing here is built on the human level,” says the artist, who spent a year in Mecca documenting the changes in the city and the migrant laborers working on these major architectural projects. The title of the piece, “Golden Hour,” is a reference to the building blitz sparked by the recent expansion of the Saudi economy, which has since taken a nosedive.

In the background, far from Mecca’s symbolic sights, is a glimpse of the urban sprawl of a city now home to well over 1 million people. In other photos, Mater records the almost shantytown-like dwellings where many non-Saudi residents live, what he calls the “real” Mecca in the title of one piece. In another photographic work on display, “Disarm” — a series of light boxes with blueish negatives of photos Mater took from a military surveillance helicopter — the outskirts of the city take on the aura of an almost alien landscape.

Fri. MUSIC

Devin the Dude Known for his one-of-a-kind flow, occasionally raunchy sense of humor and such songs as “Doobie Ashtray,” “What a Job” and “Lacville ’79,” Devin the Dude has been called “your favorite rapper’s favorite rapper” in countless profiles and reviews of his work. It’s a pretty fair assessment, given that he’s collaborated with some of the most popular hip-hop artists of the past few decades, including UGK, 2 Chainz, David Banner, Curren$y and newcomer Ty Dolla $ign. Howard Theatre, 620 T St. NW; Fri., 11:30 p.m., $25-$50.

SATURDAY

DC Chocolate Festival Westin Washington, D.C. City Center, 1400 M St. NW; Sat., 10 a.m.-5 p.m., $32.64.

A first of its kind in the region, the DC Chocolate Festival aims to unite chocolate makers and chocolate lovers for a day of tastings and workshops. Expect chocolate from around the world, a silent auction and a keynote address. Classes include “The Science of Chocolate” and a workshop on bean-to-bar chocolate-making from Potomac Chocolate’s Ben Rasmussen.

MUSIC

Acid Mothers Temple Japanese psych band Acid Mothers Temple isn’t an easy group for new fans to delve into: In its 22-year history, the collective has released more than 70 studio albums across its various incarnations and side projects. But in a live setting, you don’t have to know any of the details about the releases, name changes or lineup swaps to appreciate the group’s freaky, trippy music. Comet Ping Pong, 5037 Connecticut Ave. NW; Fri., 10 p.m., $12. EXHIBITS

‘She Who Tells a Story’ This exhibition wants to make something very clear: Women in Iran and the Arab world aren’t powerless. Female artists from the region, rather, are powerful — and they’re creating provocative and important works of art. More than 80 photographs, plus a video installation, demonstrate that point through a contemporary exhibit that touches on issues such as feminine identity and war. National Museum of Women in the Arts, 1250 New York Ave. NW; Fri. through July 31, $8-$10 (18 and younger are free).

Sat. MUSEUMS

Explore the Universe Day The National Air and Space Museum’s next Heritage Family Day event demonstrates how people around the world view and study the sky. The Smithsonian also will show off some of its telescopes, bringing guests a lot closer to the stars. National Air and Space Museum, 600 Independence Ave. SW; Sat., 10 a.m.-3 p.m., free.

Wed. MUSIC

Bleached Sisters Jen and Jessie Clavin and bass player Micayla Grace return to Washington just two weeks after the release of “Welcome the Worms.” The California trio embraces a heavier, darker tone on the new record, while still mixing in a little West Coast flavor and fun. DC9, 1940 Ninth St. NW; Wed., 9 p.m., $12-$14.

COMICS This is a moment to celebrate. On Wednesday, the Black Panther, the most important black superhero ever, returned in his own solo comic-book series. Author Ta-Nehisi Coates, one of America’s great young, black minds, has written his debut issue for the Marvel character, as illustrated by veteran black artist Brian Stelfreeze. Coates’ 11-part storyline, titled “A Nation Under Our Feet,” kicks off to coincide with the Black Panther’s forthcoming big-screen appearance next month in Marvel

MARVEL

Coates’ first comic: Fit for a king fictional technological haven that the Black Panther calls home — is in turmoil. And not everyone there believes that the Black Panther is worthy of his throne. Amid an uprising, citizens see an opportunity to take down the Black Panther. Wakanda has so often been presented as an African paradise. But now Coates raises the question: Do the Wakandan people want a monarchy? And if so, is T’Challa (Black Panther’s open identity as a civilian) their ruler of choice? Coates’ Black Panther just might have a civil war on his motherland.

The actor plays a man numbed by life and by death in ‘Demolition’ FILM Killing off a man’s young, beautiful wife — which is how “Demolition” starts — is an almost guaranteed way to build sympathy for your main character. Almost. “This guy, you’re like, ‘What an a--hole,’ ” says Jake Gyllenhaal, who plays Davis, the a--hole at

the center of the film, out Friday. After Davis’ wife (Heather Lind) dies in a car crash, he feels … nothing, because he didn’t love her. So he tries to play the part of the bereaved husband, a pattern Gyllenhaal says Davis has repeated throughout his life. “He has designed his life based on what everybody was telling him he should be doing,” says Gyllenhaal (“Southpaw”). “And he’s gotten farther and farther away from who he actually is,

and this trauma knocks him.” While at his wife’s wake, Davis locks himself in the bathroom and stares in the mirror, attempting to force the tears he knows everyone expects him to shed. “For him, there is sort of,

‘C’mon, convention says you’re supposed to cry,’ ” Gyllenhaal says. “In order to access the way he really, really feels, he has to defy all the conventions he lived by, and those conventions are the reasons he’s so far away from his

own feelings.” It’s a condition Gyllenhaal says he’s familiar with. “I am often confused when I know I should be feeling something in a situation and I’m not,” he says. One way Davis deals with his non-grief is by taking things apart, beginning with his refrigerator and working up to his actual house. “It takes three-quarters of the story for him to realize who he is,” Gyllenhaal says. Even at the end of the film, though, it’s not like Davis has a concrete notion of his own identity. But he’s at least at a place where he can start. “If you know you’re lost,” Gyllenhaal says, “then that’s the first step.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

blog log “Donald Trump, the candidate you wouldn’t trust to kiss your baby.”

Master’s Degrees That Matter

@BACKYARDCONSERV reacts to “The Daily Show” digging up an obscure video clip from 1994 that shows the Republican presidential candidate talking about his then-infant daughter’s breasts. The clip is from a “Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous” episode during which host Robin Leach asks Trump and his second wife, Marla Maples, what physical attributes their 1-year-old daughter, Tiffany, has from each parent. Trump says she has Maples’ legs and then adds, “We don’t know whether or not she’s got this part yet,” while cupping his hands around his chest. “But time will tell.”

The luxury cars are part of the company’s Exotic Car Collection, which has more than 30 locations in the U.S. The rentals run anywhere from $900 to $1,400 per day and “could fluctuate based on market, location and seasonal demand,” a company representative said.

discusses the potential risk of a new Dominos app that orders a pizza whenever it’s opened. Users can use the “zero click” ordering feature by setting up their profile and entering their preferred pizza. After that, whenever the app opens, a 10-second countdown appears, allowing the user to cancel the order before it is submitted.

for AMC to reveal which character was killed by villain Negan during “The Walking Dead’s” season finale Sunday. The episode ended with Negan repeatedly hitting someone — filmed from the mysterious victim’s point of view — with his barbed wire-wrapped baseball bat. If the cable network refuses to say which character died, the petition demands “an interim episode that borders Season 6 and 7, or a short R-rated webisode that shows us the death in all its bloody glory. Either of these are fine as long as it’s released before May 30th.” AMC has ignored previous petitions from “Walking Dead” fans.

After scanning his badge, they realize who he is and let him proceed.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Take precautions to ensure that safety remains a key component of all you do. You cannot afford to take certain risks. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’re after something more than is available to you outright. This will require some maneuvering on your part. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You may find yourself getting pulled into a situation that is far more emotional than anyone expected. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are ready to take the credit for something others have been enjoying. Be sure such recognition is what you want! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You are still waiting for news from someone who is making plans you want to be a part of. Don’t let yourself become pushy. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) What lies ahead may frighten you in some ways, but that means that it offers you a valuable challenge and opportunity for growth. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Others may not be as impressed with your work as you had hoped. Perhaps you are trying too hard. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You’ll

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You’re likely to hear from someone who is in need of something only you can provide. It would be wise to make yourself available.

TODAY: Showers seem likely during the morning into midday, but they should taper off as the afternoon progresses. During the day we still will be on the mild side of the front, with highs reaching the low 60s. Late tonight and heading into Friday morning, lows will drop down to the low 40s or even chillier.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You cannot expect all the information you need to come to you at once. You must be willing to put it all together bit by bit. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You must resist the temptation to claim credit for more than you have actually done. Otherwise, someone will surely see through you.

Authorities say actress Vanessa Hudgens can pay a fine and restitution or appear in court for an Instagram post of a Sedona red rock carved with a heart and the names Vanessa and Austin. Damaging a natural feature on U.S. Forest Service land is a misdemeanor punishable by up to six months in jail and a maximum $5,000 fine. Forest Service officials said they contacted Hudgens, who was “cooperative.” (AP)

“Nothing matters now that I have my husband. I don’t even remember any of that.”

A Twitter feud erupted between rapper Azealia Banks and former Alaska governor Sarah Palin on Tuesday, after Banks believed a satirical news story in which Palin claimed white people weren’t responsible for slavery. Banks shot off several (since deleted) angry tweets in which she suggested Palin engage in variety of sex acts with black men. Palin told People magazine she planned to sue Banks for her attacks. In an (also quickly deleted) Tumblr post, Banks apologized, but also noted, “If Bristol Palin listened to my music she probably wouldn’t have all those cotdamn kids!” (THE WASHINGTON POST)
