David Saint-Jacques of the Canadian Space Agency completes the first spacewalk of his career on Monday.

The rich get rich via frugal habits, such as petty theft from Kmart

Sounds like it was a bad waxident ... Sorry, we’ll see ourselves out.

Thieves keep stealing the wheels off police cars in Jackson, Miss. Police spokesman Sgt. Roderick Holmes said three patrol cars were towed Saturday after police discovered their wheels had been stolen. The cars were parked behind a police museum. It’s the second time thieves have taken wheels from a Jackson patrol car recently. A car was left on blocks near the police training academy in March after its tires and rims were taken. (AP)

A man who had just bought an $8 million island off Key West was arrested Saturday in a scheme to steal $300 in small items from Kmart. The store called police after Andrew Francis Lippi bought several items, including a coffeemaker and lightbulbs, and returned the boxes for a refund. But the boxes were stuffed with other items. The Miami Herald reported Lippi bought Thompson Island and also owns the “Real World” house in Key West. (AP)

A semi-truck overturned Monday on Interstate 10 in southern New Mexico, dumping candles all over the highway. The Las Cruces Sun-News reported the truck rolled and then flipped onto its side, ditching wax and wicks across the interstate. State police said the crash’s cause is under investigation.

No injuries were reported. Police spokesman Dusty Francisco said east- and westbound lanes were blocked for several hours. (AP)

Much more than a nursery $267M VIRGINIA STATE PARKS

BELTSVILLE, MD. After Stephanie Fleming announced that Behnke Nurseries was closing after 89 years, the company’s website crashed. Her email stopped working, because so many people were responding to her message that “with great sadness, I must tell you that this 2019 Spring season will be our last.”

In the Beltsville, Md., parking lot on one of the first warm weekends of spring, cars circled, and circled, and circled. Inside the sprawling garden center, employees apologized to people struggling with heavy bags of mulch and armloads of perennials: All the carts were taken.

“No one wants a place like this to close,” Fleming said after accepting a hug from a longtime customer. “But the time came.”

Over its many years in suburban Maryland, this sprawling nursery grew into a close-knit community and a destination for gardeners.

“People and plants go together,” said Behnke’s president,

Fleming’s grandparents Rose and Albert Behnke started the nursery in 1930 after emigrating from Germany. They settled on a quarter-acre of swampy land and built their family home — a shack, really, without running water, Fleming said — with a little lean-to on the side for plants.

The early years were a struggle, during the Great Depression, a

Beginning with Bess Truman, Behnke gave flowers to each first lady to welcome her to the White House. The nursery kept growing, and it’s huge now, at 12 acres.

Even after plants became a commodity sold in grocery stores and big-box centers, people still came to Behnke’s for the same reasons they always had: the knowledge of the staff, the kindness, the sense of community.

Dogs wander through, sniffing.

People stop for long conversations about seed pods.

“Some people come in at lunch hour, walk around, don’t buy anything — they leave happier,” Fleming said. “Being around plants is relaxing.”

After they close, probably in June, the family will work to develop the land. Fleming said townhouses are likely.

“At first I thought, ‘townhouses,’ ” she said, with a sort of shudder. “Well, everyone gets a little piece of Behnke’s.”

State places first marker to honor lynching victim Virginia has installed its first historical marker to commemorate the lynching of a black man. The marker was installed on Sunday in Charles City, outside of Richmond. It marks the death of 43-year-old Isaac Brandon, who was lynched in 1892 after he was accused of attacking a white woman.

Brandon was never charged and never had a trial. According to the Equal Justice Initiative, about 100 documented lynchings took place in Virginia. (AP)

More than basketball Title win brings Charlottesville positive attention after so many negative headlines

expressline

Busch honored during last hour of Md. session

RYAN M. KELLY PHOTOS (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

CHARLOTTESVILLE It was gray and damp, but the electricity in the air was unmistakable all day Monday. Up and down 14th Street NW, students, bedecked in orange and blue, packed onto front porches and carried boxes of beer. Women painted blue and orange stripes on their cheeks or pasted tiny temporary tattoos of the University of Virginia’s signature image — two crossed swords — on their cheeks.

Hours later, as the seconds wore down, as the University of Virginia grew closer to making history, the crowd of fans inside the Boylan Heights bar near campus grew louder and louder.

Then, with the buzzer, they exploded again in cheers, tossing their beers into the air in disbelief.

In the hours after the Virginia Cavaliers won their first men’s national basketball championship, hundreds of students took to the streets and campus to celebrate.

The moment was made even sweeter because it was the first time the team had made the Final Four since 1984. It was a shot at redemption for a squad that made history last year by being the first No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed when the team was bested by the University of Maryland Baltimore County. But for a town beset by controversy and tragedy, it was about more than just the basketball team.

Nearly 20 months ago, white supremacists descended on the town to protest the proposed removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. People across the country saw images of young white men carrying tiki torches, yelling racist slogans, their faces strained with anger. The following day, their demonstration turned violent, leading to clashes with counter-protesters. A man from Ohio plowed his vehicle into

a crowd of counter-protesters, killing a local woman, Heather Heyer, and injuring many more.

Like so many other small communities that become settings for tragedies, the word Charlottesville became not just a place, but a single event. That event came to signify the terrifying rise of white supremacists.

It came to signify many things that people who love the

community say it is not.

“It’s a lovely small town,” said Larry J. Sabato, director of UVa.’s Center for Politics. He has lived in Charlottesville since 1970. “It’s heaven to live in.”

Sabato said the game signified a chance for the world to get to know Charlottesville beyond the headlines.

“It’s certainly attracting a great amount of positive attention,

which is a nice antidote to the avalanche of negative attention” that came after the white supremacist march, Sabato said. He pointed out that nearly all of those who arrived to protest were from out of town. “Nothing’s changed. It’s just the outsider’s view.”

Daniel Redd, a 24-year-old urban planning graduate student, was a U-Va. fan long before he set foot on campus.

Walking through campus a couple of hours before the game, he said the team’s performance this year inspired optimism in him — not just for the team, but also for the community.

He said he worries that the outside world still equates the town with the images of hatred and violence generated by the demonstration in 2017. But, he said, maybe the game was a chance for the town to change that.

“Maybe it can change the narrative, hopefully,” Redd said.

Bowser taps veteran D.C. bureaucrat Barbara Bazron to lead agency fighting opioid overdoses

ANNAPOLIS One day after longtime Maryland House Speaker Michael Busch died, lawmakers gathered late Monday night to adjourn their annual 90-day legislative session with a moment of silence in honor of the 32-year lawmaker who became speaker in 2003.

Remembered as a champion of the Chesapeake Bay and education, Busch died Sunday in Baltimore at 72 from pneumonia. Delegates and senators gathered at 11:30 p.m. to pay tribute to the longestserving House speaker in the state’s history.

“He was a mentor, a coach, a friend, and each and every one of us benefited from his wise counsel and his steady leadership,” said Gov. Larry Hogan, a Republican and frequent political adversary.

“Mike Busch truly became an institution within the institution of state government, and his name will long be synonymous with service in Maryland.”

Del. Talmadge Branch, D-Baltimore City, opened the eulogies simply: “We loved him.”

Busch, an Anne Arundel County Democrat, will lie in state in the rotunda of the Maryland State House next week.

Public visitation will be from 1 p.m. to 7 p.m. Monday and from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. next Tuesday, his family announced in a statement.

His funeral will be Tuesday at 11 a.m. at St. John Neumann Church in Annapolis. (AP/TWP)

Bond denied in thwarted attack Officials say suspect planned ISIS-inspired vehicle rampage in Md. NATIONAL HARBOR, MD. A Maryland man accused of stealing a U-Haul van with the intention of mowing down crowds at a major international airport and a busy waterfront entertainment destination outside of Washington was ordered to remain jailed pending his trial in what the government called an Islamic State-inspired plot.

Rondell Henry, 28, appeared

In court, prosecutors echoed the accusations made in earlier court filings that in March, Henry sized up Dulles airport for two hours to see if it had a large enough crowd for his plot and finding too few people there,

“He wanted bloodshed.

He wanted chaos.

He wanted panic.”

Henry, of Germantown, was arrested on a state charge March 28. Prince George’s County police suspected him of breaking into a private boat along the pier that was near the allegedly stolen van they had under surveillance.

Henry was born in TrinidadTobago and is a naturalized U.S. citizen, said Marcia Murphy, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Maryland.

Academy dome set to be replaced The United States Naval Academy’s iconic chapel dome, whose patina has turned green with age, is set to be replaced with a shiny new version. Naval Academy spokesman Lt. David McKinney told The Capital that the copper dome was originally going to be repaired, but the severity of its deterioration has prompted officials to replace it entirely. It will take about 20 years for the dome to turn green again. An $8.9 million project to repair the dome began in GETTY IMAGES

State’s public housing worst in U.S., study finds

Police in Virginia say they’ve arrested an 80-year-old man for the slaying of two young women more than 45 years ago. The Virginia Beach Police Department announced the arrest Tuesday of Ernest Broadnax of St. Albans, N.Y., on two counts of second-degree murder and one count of rape.

He is awaiting extradition to Virginia. Janice Pietropola and Lynn Seethaler were both 19 years old and on vacation from the Pittsburgh area when they were found dead June 30, 1973, in a cottage near the Atlantic Ocean.

Police did not say how they caught Broadnax. (AP)

Almost a third of public housing inspections in Maryland have resulted in failing health and safety scores. An analysis of federal data shows that’s the worst performance in the country.

Old, rundown complexes in Baltimore are the main culprit.

Federal and city data show that 22 of 37 Baltimore sites failed their most recent inspections. Officials blame the problems on long-term underfunding by the federal government. Statewide, public housing buildings failed 32 percent of inspections since 2013. D.C. had the country’s second-worst failure rate at 29 percent. (AP)

Erd Erdogan’s party seeks new election after loss

ALGIERS, ALGERIA The Algerian senator named to temporarily fill the office vacated by former President Abdelaziz Bouteflika said he would act quickly to arrange an “honest and transparent” election to usher in an “Algeria of the future.”

Abdelkader Bensalah, an ally of Bouteflika’s, spoke on national TV hours after his appointment Tuesday as Algeria’s interim president brought immediate protests. In the streets of the capital, protesters who want the country’s established political hierarchy dismantled shouted, “Out with the system.”

Bensalah, the head of the upper house of the Algerian Parliament, vowed to establish a “sovereign” body to organize a presidential election within 90 days. That’s the constitutional

limit on how long he can serve as interim president. Bensalah can’t run for president himself when the election is held.

The North African country’s influential military stayed silent on the appointment. It said only that it would work to ensure the “tranquility” of the country that was led for two decades by the ailing Bouteflika, 82, before he stepped down a week ago after

weeks of nationwide protests and with a push from the chief of the army.

The inconclusive statement suggests the army will wait to see if there are more protests Friday before deciding whether to throw its support behind Bensalah or not. The statement didn’t specifically address Bensalah’s appointment. AOMAR OUALI AND NADINE ACHOUI-LESAGE (AP)

Measles emergency in NYC City orders vaccinations in neighborhood where disease has hit hardest NEW YORK New York City declared a public health emergency Tuesday over a measles outbreak centered in an ultra-Orthodox Jewish community and ordered mandatory vaccinations in the neighborhood.

Mayor Bill de Blasio announced the unusual order amid what he said was a measles crisis in Brooklyn’s Williamsburg section, where more than 250 people have gotten measles since September. Officials blamed the outbreak on “anti-vaxxers” spreading false information.

The order applies to anyone living, working or going to school in four ZIP codes in the neighborhood and requires all unvaccinated people at risk of exposure to get the vaccine, including children over 6 months old.

The city can’t legally physically force someone to get a vaccination, but officials said people who ignore the order could be fined $1,000. The city said it would help everyone covered by the order get the vaccine if they can’t get it quickly through their regular medical provider.

“If people will simply cooperate quickly, nobody will have to pay a fine,” de Blasio said.

The city’s health commissioner, Dr. Oxiris Barbot, said that the majority of religious

inoculations are dangerous.

“This outbreak is being fueled by a small group of anti-vaxxers in these neighborhoods. They have been spreading dangerous misinformation based on fake science,” Barbot said.

The commissioner is empowered by law to issue such orders in cases when they might be necessary to protect against a serious public health threat. Earlier this week, the city ordered religious schools and day care programs serving that community to exclude unvaccinated students or risk being closed down.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends that all children get two doses of measles vaccine. It says the vaccine is 97 percent effective. (AP)

TEHRAN, IRAN | Iranian lawmakers, wearing the uniform of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard, chant slogans including “Death to America” in parliament Tuesday.

Speaker Ali Larijani denounced the U.S. decision as a “climax of stupidity and ignorance.”

White House, Treasury spoke on tax returns POLITICS Treasury Department lawyers consulted with the White House general counsel’s office about the potential release of President Trump’s tax returns before House Democrats formally requested the records, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, above, said Tuesday.

Mnuchin had not previously revealed that the White House was playing any official role in the Treasury Department’s decision on releasing Trump’s tax returns.

Democrats are asking for six years of Trump’s returns, using a federal law that says the treasury secretary “shall furnish” the records upon the request of House or Senate chairmen.

The process is designed to be walled off from White House interference, in part because of corruption that took place during the Teapot Dome scandal in the 1920s.

“I think the fact that there was any communication with the White House about this is deeply troubling and certainly violates the spirit of the law, if not the letter of the law, and I think we need to get to the bottom of this,” Rep. Carolyn Maloney, D-N.Y, said.

Ways and Means Committee Chairman Richard Neal, D-Mass., requested the returns last week in a letter to Mnuchin that set a deadline of today to provide them. Mnuchin said he “looks forward to responding,” but it appears clear that Treasury won’t meet the deadline.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and wife Sara cast their ballot Tuesday during Israel’s parliamentary elections in Jerusalem.

JERUSALEM Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his main challenger, former military chief Benny Gantz, were locked in a tight race Tuesday as exit polls showed no clear winner in an election that was seen as a referendum on the long-serving leader.

Both men declared victory, though Netanyahu appeared to have better prospects of forming a coalition with smaller ideological allies. The final results weren’t available at Express’ deadline. Still, it appeared to be a setback for Netanyahu as the results failed to give him the decisive victory he had sought.

The 69-year-old prime minister’s fate is clouded by a series of corruption investigations.

Two Israeli TV stations showed Gantz’s Blue and White Party with a narrow lead over Netanyahu’s Likud Party. Because both parties are far short of a majority in the 120-seat parliament, they would have to search for smaller ideological allies to cobble together a majority.

Early on Wednesday, Gantz addressed a raucous crowd.

“Elections have losers and elections have winners. And we are the winners,” he told supporters.

Netanyahu, main rival both declare victory before official results

Former Israeli military chief Benny Gantz, one of the leaders of the Blue and White Party, waves to supporters at the alliance headquarters in Tel Aviv.

He vowed to change the tone of Israel’s divisive political system and “be the prime minister of everyone, not just the ones who voted for me.”

Claiming to represent the largest party, Gantz urged President Reuven Rivlin to give him the

opportunity to form the next government. As president, Rivlin is responsible for choosing the prime minister after consulting with party leaders and deciding who has the best chance of cobbling together a coalition.

Netanyahu said in a statement

that his right-wing bloc won a “clear victory.”

Yohanan Plesner, a former lawmaker and head of the nonpartisan Israel Democracy Institute, called the conflicting exit polls “an unprecedented situation.”

“We’ve had elections before where he didn’t know the results but here it is even messier,” he said.

The final results will depend on the performance of several small parties, including the Arab Balad party and the ultranationalist “New Right,” that were on the cusp of winning the needed 3.25 percent of the votes to enter parliament. If any of them fail to cross the threshold, the makeup of the next coalition could be dramatically affected.

The election included several other surprises. Exit polls all projected the iconic Labor party, which ruled the country for its first 30 years, tumbling to single digits in the parliament.

Clouded by looming corruption indictments, Netanyahu is seeking a fourth consecutive term and a fifth overall, which would make him Israel’s longestserving leader, surpassing founding father David Ben-Gurion.

The election has emerged as a referendum on his 13 years in power, with the existential questions facing Israel rarely being discussed in the campaign.

Texas Tech med admissions will stop using race EDUCATION Texas Tech University Health Sciences Center has agreed to stop using race when considering applicants to its medical school, bowing to pressure as the Trump administration campaigns to curtail the use of affirmative action in education.

The action is the first of its kind under Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and signals the approach her agency plans to take with other schools.

The department’s Office for Civil Rights has investigations underway into the use of race in admissions at Yale and Harvard universities. Those cases question whether Asian-American applicants are being discriminated against in admissions.

Last year, DeVos revoked Obama-era guidance that offered schools a road map on how they could legally consider race in the interest of promoting diversity.

Liz Hill, an Education Department spokeswoman, emphasized that the agency was not insisting the school stop using race completely, but that it abide by limits established by the Supreme Court. Hill said the school opted on its own to stop the use of race altogether, and the agreement with the university specifies that the school may notify the Education Department if it wants to resume the use of race or national origin for review in limited circumstances.

Democrats push Barr for report

White House seeks tariffs to pressure Airbus

portrayed the findings in an overly favorable way for President Trump. The letter said that Mueller did not find a criminal conspiracy between Russia and Trump associates in the 2016 campaign, and that Barr did not believe the evidence in the report was sufficient to prove the president had obstructed justice.

Barr said “the letter speaks for itself” and revealed that he gave Mueller an opportunity to review the letter but the special counsel declined.

Asked about reports that members of Mueller’s legal team were unhappy with his handling of the report, Barr said he suspected any discontent may have reflected their desire to put out more information.

Republicans defended Barr, with Alabama Rep. Robert Aderholt comparing Democrats’ questions to theories surrounding President John F. Kennedy’s 1963 assassination.

Barr is likely to be asked to further explain himself at a Senate Appropriations subcommittee hearing Wednesday, though it’s unclear how much more he will say. ERIC TUCKER AND

TRADE The White House Office of the U.S. Trade Representative announced that it would pursue tariffs against a broad collection of aircraft and aircraft parts from the European Union. In addition, it said it is considering imposing tariffs on products such as swordfish, brandy and brooms from countries in the EU. It said the tariffs were meant to force action in a long-running trade dispute involving the European aircraft giant Airbus, and estimated that the harm caused by EU subsidies amounted to $11 billion a year.

The action comes as U.S. aerospace giant Boeing grapples with the fallout from two deadly crashes involving its grounded 737 Max planes.

The move Monday was met with immediate consternation abroad.

A spokesman for the European Commission, the governing body of the EU, said the commission would “promptly take action” in what it called a Boeing-related dispute.

The USTR’s announcement did not say what rate should be imposed on the aircraft and related parts. If the tariff rate is high enough, it could shut Airbus out of the U.S. aviation market.

If tariffs were imposed on Airbus jets, it could significantly benefit Boeing’s U.S. prospects, although the company could be caught up in EU retaliation abroad. AARON GREGG

(THE WASHINGTON POST)

The attorney general appeared before a House appropriations subcommittee to discuss his department’s budget request — normally a sleepy affair — but Democrats, in particular, were more interested in asking questions about the report.

Barr wouldn’t discuss the substance of the special counsel’s investigation into possible connections between Russia and Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign, but he did explain some of what to expect when the report is released: He said the redactions will be color-coded and accompanied by notes explaining any decisions to withhold information.

“This process is going along very well and my original timetable of being able to release this by mid-April stands,” Barr said.

Congress, the White House and the American public have been anxiously waiting for Barr to release the report since special counsel Mueller concluded his investigation and sent it to the attorney general more than two weeks ago.

Justice Department officials are scouring the nearly 400-page document to remove grand jury

GETTY IMAGES

POLITICS Attorney General William Barr told Congress Tuesday he expects to release his redacted version of the special counsel’s Trump-Russia investigation report “within a week,” while Democrats criticized his handling of the long-awaited document and demanded he turn it over in full.

Barr bluntly defended his dealing with the report and said portions must remain hidden to comply with the law. He said he could be open to eventually releasing some of the redacted material after consulting with congressional leaders, but he drew a line against grand jury information, which would require court approval. He said Democrats were “free to go to court” to ask for it.

House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler said he could issue subpoenas “very quickly” if Robert Mueller’s report is released with redactions after Democrats failed “to reach an accommodation with the attorney general.”

Nadler said of Barr: “He has been unresponsive to our requests.”

Kyle Guy starts the celebration after Virginia’s 85-77 defeat of Texas Tech in the NCAA final.

THREE POINTERS

JONATHAN NEWTON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A change of identity

JOHN FEINSTEIN | THE WASHINGTON POST

Hard-earned title: 3 miracles bring Cavs’ redemption Virginia saved its best for last.

If they hadn’t, the Cavaliers would not have won their first national championship Monday night in Minneapolis.

Trailing Texas Tech by three early in overtime, the Cavs went on an 11-0 run to finally take control and walk away with an 85-77 victory — a score that didn’t begin to reflect the game’s extraordinary drama.

Again they survived, having trailed a tough and talented Texas Tech team 68-65 with less than 20 seconds left in regulation. It was a familiar script for a team that redeemed itself in unlikely fashion.

Consider: Virginia last year became the first No. 1 seed to lose to a No. 16 seed in the NCAA Tournament. Then

it went 29-3 in the regular season to become a No. 1 seed again. And what happened? It fell behind another 16 seed, Gardner-Webb, by 14 points in the first half in its first game of the tournament.

“I remember thinking, ‘We can’t go through this again,’ ” coach Tony Bennett said later. “At halftime, I told them I could accept losing, but I couldn’t accept anything less than every single thing they had to give.”

The Cavaliers didn’t have to go through it again. They rallied to win. Then they won a routine second-round game against Oklahoma and a tight game against Oregon in the Sweet 16.

Then began the story even Disney wouldn’t believe.

There was the escape from Purdue in the region final

when freshman point guard Kihei Clark miraculously found Mamadi Diakite for the tying jumper at the end of regulation. Call it The Pass and The Shot. The Cavaliers won in overtime. That was Miracle 1.

Then came Saturday’s national semifinal against Auburn.

Virginia led by 10 late and blew the lead. The Tigers led 62-60 when Kyle Guy was fouled with less than a second to play. Or maybe he wasn’t fouled. Or maybe Ty Jerome double-dribbled a few seconds earlier. It didn’t matter. Guy made all three free throws and U-Va. escaped, 63-62.

The Free Throws. Miracle 2.

And then came Monday night. Virginia again had a 10-point lead, but this was a team that did nothing easily.

By the time the Red Raiders

Last year, Villanova made winning the crown look easy.

This year, Virginia made it look almost impossibly difficult.

Redskins to open preseason at Browns (date TBA) and play at Falcons and home versus Bengals and Ravens

had taken a 68-65 lead with 22 seconds left in regulation, the Cavaliers had the Red Raiders right where they wanted them.

Taking a lead on the Cavaliers simply brought out the best in them. U-Va. could have settled for a two-point basket and then fouled quickly.

Instead, Jerome drove to the basket, and just when it looked as if he were going to go up for a layup, he flipped a pass to De’Andre Hunter in the corner.

Hunter had been awful in the first half — 1 for 8 — but he was almost perfect in the second: 7 of 8 from the field to finish with 27 points. No shot was as big as the 3-pointer he drilled from the corner off Jerome’s pass with 14 ticks left before overtime.

Texas Tech had one more chance, but Jarrett Culver missed a 3. Overtime.

The Red Raiders actually led 73-70, but Guy made two free throws and Hunter made a 3 for the final lead change of the season. Texas Tech was gassed.

This time it was The 3. And, most important, Miracle 3. Job done. Redemption complete.

Winning a championship can change perceptions.

Here are the biggest revelations about Virginia after it won the school’s first NCAA men’s basketball title on Monday night.

JEFFREY TOMIK (EXPRESS)

3 Slow can win the race Virginia was admonished for its slow and deliberate style after last year’s loss to No. 16 seed UMBC, but the Cavaliers proved teams can win with a defensive-minded approach.

2 NBA talent at Virginia It’s been decades since a Virginia player was drafted in the lottery, but De’Andre Hunter will end that drought.

He could be a top-five pick after a 27-point title game.

1 Coach among elites With an NCAA championship to go with four ACC regularseason titles since 2014, Tony Bennett deserves to be considered one of the top coaches in the country.

Arizona QB at workouts while Kyler Murray visits Cardinals’ front office ANALYSIS The Arizona Cardinals’ Josh Rosen was at camp Tuesday in Tempe for the team’s first series of offseason workouts.

And he wasn’t the only wellknown quarterback in town.

Heisman Trophy winner Kyler Murray reportedly visited Tuesday with the Cardinals’ top decision-makers.

They could choose Murray with the first pick of the NFL draft April 25. If they do, Rosen — the 10th pick in last year’s draft — might be available via trade. And the dots continue to get connected between Rosen and the Redskins, who need their own franchise quarterback.

Last week alone, ESPN’s Chris Mortensen and Todd McShay and NBC’s Peter King suggested that Washington is the favorite to land Rosen in a pre-draft trade.

Multiple people with knowledge of the Redskins’ thinking confirmed that the team is interested in acquiring him.

pick in the draft, but there is no consensus on this year’s quarterback prospects. With Rosen, Washington could get a passer who was one of the top options in last year’s star-studded quarterback class.

Rosen could be acquired for a second- or third-round draft pick.

For a Washington roster with needs at several key positions, that could be a more desirable option than investing a first-round pick in a rookie quarterback.

The Redskins’ quarterbacks now include recently acquired Case Keenum, longtime backup Colt McCoy and Alex Smith, who is recovering from a severely broken b o e leg. eg. ((THE WASHINGTON S G O POST/AP) OS / )

Eller gets a little extra rest, says he’s ready for Game 1

UCLA hires Cincinnati coach after earlier options fail

Ledecky will compete in new pro swim league

After leaving the ice early during Monday’s practice, Capitals center Lars Eller said Tuesday that he will be good to go for Game 1 on Thursday of the first-round playoff series against Carolina. The opener will start at 7:30 (NBCSWA, USA) at Capital One Arena. Coach Todd Reirden said Eller had a short practice to rest his upper body. Eller, who had 13 goals and 23 assists this season, was back on the ice for the Capitals’ optional practice Tuesday. Aside from defenseman Michal Kempny’s torn hamstring, Washington has no significant injuries entering the postseason.

UCLA on Tuesday hired Cincinnati’s Mick Cronin as coach, ending a search that began Dec. 31. Cronin, 47, agreed to a six-year, $24 million contract that will nearly double his $2.2 million salary with the Bearcats. Cronin, who replaces Steve Alford, could be considered UCLA’s Plan C after it couldn’t complete agreements to hire Texas Christian’s Jamie Dixon or Tennessee’s Rick Barnes. The Bruins failed to reach a deal with Dixon because of his $8 million buyout and couldn’t come to terms with Barnes after a series of intense negotiations resulted in the veteran coach remaining in Knoxville.

Olympian Katie Ledecky of Bethesda said Tuesday she will compete as a charter member of a professional swimming league that is to launch in October. The International Swimming League (ISL) formally announced its plans Tuesday.

The ISL plans to field four Europe- and four U.S.-based teams, including one in Washington called the D.C. Trident. Specific rosters were not announced. (TWP/EXPRESS)

CRITIC’S NOTEBOOK

GETTY IMAGES/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

Tuttle loses her voice on debut album

‘Free Spirit’ soars high Khalid showcases his growth and maturity with a deeply personal sophomore album ALBUM REVIEW Khalid charmed us on his debut album by singing about being young, dumb and broke. None of that is accurate on his excellent sophomore effort.

The pop-soul-R&B star, who knocked out many listeners with 2017’s “American Teen,” is 21 now — still young, sure, but no longer a teen — and he’s far from broke now.

And we find him on his second full-length album wrestling with deep stuff. The guy who worried a few years ago that his mom would kill him because his car smelled like marijuana is now singing, “I shouldn’t have to die to feel alive.”

“Free Spirit,” which came out Friday, is a fuller, layered 17-track album of unrushed, somber pop from an artist extending

his wings and proving why he’s one of the most exciting voices in music today. On the funky “Para- ‘Free Spirit’ dise,” he ac- Khalid knowledges his maturity: “I’ve been thinking a little deeper / contemplation, getting cleaner.”

Two of the better tracks, “Better” and “Saturday Nights,” appeared on Khalid’s recent EP “Suncity,” and he reunites with producers Charlie Handsome and Digi, who co-wrote many of the tracks. Though lately he’s been collaborating with everyone from Halsey to Kane Brown, Khalid keeps the guest list light here (though John Mayer supplies nifty guitar work on “Outta My Head”).

Khalid’s sound has evolved, and so has the fuller production

elements. If in the past he used just a little piano or a guitar lick, now he nestles his voice in hazy clouds of warm synth, murky echoes and usually some distorted effects. He lays down overlapping vocals, adds twisty bits of electronica and employs his falsetto to great effect.

At times, Khalid gets so introspective that listeners might feel like they’ve stumbled into a therapy session. “The man that I’ve been running from is inside of me / I tell him keep it quiet,” he sings on “Self.”

We were warned “Free Spirit” would be a very personal album from the opening song, “Intro,” on which Khalid sings: “I can’t even live with being by myself / That’s the part of me that really needs your help.” But, to be honest, when it comes to making superb music, he doesn’t need any help. MARK KENNEDY (AP)

Acoustic guitar sensation Molly Tuttle doesn’t play to her strengths on her debut album, which came out Friday. “When You’re Ready” aspires to be contemporary rather than rootsy, and more like Taylor Swift than Maybelle Carter. The album is overproduced

by Ryan Hewitt, as fussy arrangements compete for attention with Tuttle’s singing and picking. At times, when too many other instruments join in, the record creates a frothy swirl that sounds like product, as artifice displaces authentic. As a songwriter, Tuttle has a winning way with a melody. The final cut, “Clue,” highlights her voice, with long vowels that soar and bluesy twists that suggest her next record will be better. STEVEN WINE (AP)

Onwuachi’s memoir doesn’t sugarcoat an up-and-down journey BOOK REVIEW The title of Kwame Onwuachi’s remarkable memoir, “Notes From a Young Black Chef,” riffs on the name of a slim volume penned more than 15 years ago: “Letters to a Young Chef,” in which French farm boy turned Michelin man Daniel Boulud doles out advice.

The two books could be mirror images of one another: Boulud’s letters offer a kind of softcover mentorship. Onwuachi’s book, which came out Tuesday, confronts the hard realities of a world often stacked against him.

Credit journalist Joshua David Stein, co-author of “Notes From a Young Black Chef,” who spent

AMC series “Preacher” to end with upcoming fourth season

SCOTT SUCHMAN (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

Chef cuts to the heart of his story “Notes From a Young Black Chef” charts Kwame Onwuachi’s culinary career.

a couple of years in Onwuachi’s orbit, learning, observing and teasing out anecdotes from a chef who had previously scrubbed the unflattering details from his

story. In prose both hard and lyrical, we learn about Onwuachi’s flirtation with gangs as a kid from the Bronx, his drug dealing in college and his encounters with

Emma Corrin to play Princess Diana in Season 4 of “The Crown”

racism. We even learn the ugly details behind the collapse of Shaw Bijou, his D.C. restaurant that cratered in a matter of months.

Through these events, we see Onwuachi as the son who first learned to cook from his mother.

There’s also Onwuachi the “Top Chef” contestant, who wanted to open the “best restaurant in Washington, D.C.” And there’s Onwuachi, the chef who flamed out with his first restaurant but emerged from the ashes with Kith and Kin at The Wharf.

What’s inspiring about Onwuachi’s story is his fierce belief in himself and his path — even as people tried to break him or shape him in their preferred image.

for a financial advice video — originally published in 2018 but tweeted again

by CNBC on Sunday — suggesting people tip waiters less as a way to save money. Though Guzman acknowledges that it’s customary to tip 15 to 20 percent, he then makes a case for tipping on the pretax amount. The “trick” was immediately panned on Twitter as cheap. Many users pointed out that servers are already underpaid in most states. Others noted that if people were really worried about saving money, eating at home was a better route.
