JUST A SUGGESTION
His Prison Nickname Should Be ‘The Prints of Thieves’ A former employee of a New York City law firm has been convicted of stealing more than $376,000 worth of copy-machine toner. Adrian Rodriguez pleaded guilty to his thefts from Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP. Prosecutors said Tuesday that Rodriguez ordered the toner from vendors between 2010 and 2012, then resold it for $10 to $15 per box. (AP) THEY GOT GAME
Motto: ‘Say It With Roadkill’ Police in a western Pennsylvania town are investigating a groundhog and a grouse, both dead, tossed into a tavern Sunday. The animals were thrown into Bill’s Bar hours apart. Brookville police Chief Ken Dworek says such use of animals is a fairly common problem: “A guy will get in an argument and put a dead squirrel on his girlfriend’s doorknob, that kind of thing.” (AP) TO BE CONTINUED …
Unwitting Rescuers Interrupt Epic Game of Cat and Mouse A ginger cat has been rescued after spending two days marooned atop a northern Indiana freeway sign. The cat was spotted Thursday on a sign near an overpass in Elkhart, but police couldn’t find him when they arrived. The next day, however, the Humane Society received a similar call, and shelter workers spotted an orange cat sitting on top of a light on the sign. (AP)

Toxin Found on Letters Sent to Obama, Senator
The Mail Letters sent to President Barack Obama and Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., tested positive for ricin on Wednesday:
What they say: “To see a wrong and not expose it, is to become a silent partner to its continuance.” How they are signed: “I am KC and I approve this message.” Where they are from: Both were postmarked Memphis, Tenn., April 8.
Tests indicate ricin in mail; suspicious packages scrutinized Washington
The Packages
CAROLYN KASTER/AP
In a capital city on edge, letters sent to President Barack Obama and a Mississippi senator tested positive for poisonous ricin in preliminary checks Wednesday, and authorities chased a stream of reports of other suspicious-looking items sent to senators in Washington and beyond. Those letters were intercepted before reaching the White House or Senate. Obama was briefed on the situation Tuesday, a White House spokesman said. The FBI said Wednesday that more tests were underway. Preliminary tests can often show false positives for ricin. Reports of suspicious mail or packages also came in from at least three senators’ offices in their home states. Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said the letters at his Phoenix office had been cleared. A package at Sen. John Cornyn’s Dallas-area office also was declared harmless, officials said. Sen. Carl Levin said a letter at his Saginaw, Mich., office was being checked.
Security was tight on Capitol Hill as suspicious mail was investigated Wednesday.

and injured more than 170. The FBI said there was no indication of a connection between the letters and the bombings. The letters to Obama and Sen. Roger Wicker, R-Miss., were postmarked April 8. Capitol Police ramped up security, and lawmakers and staff were cautioned away from some parts of the Hill complex. Hours later, officials signaled it was safe to move through the area, and people settled back to normal, if watchful, activity. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo.,

Authorities scurried to investigate at least three questionable packages discovered in Senate office buildings Wednesday. There was no immediate information about the contents of the packages.

BOND VILLAINS
Senate Republicans, backed by a small band of rural-state Democrats, turned away legislation Wednesday to tighten restrictions on gun sales, rejecting appeals from President Barack Obama and pleas by families of the victims in the Newtown, Conn., school shooting. The 54-46 vote was well short of the 60 votes needed to advance. Forty-one Republicans and five Democrats sided to scuttle the plan. The Senate also rejected a Republican plan that would have required most states to recognize permits that other states issue allowing people to carry concealed firearms. That vote was a win for gun-control activists, which have been battling the National Rifle Association over the issue for years. Senate votes were set on a total

Assad: West Is Aiding Al-Qaeda Syrian leader blasts foreign opponents as civil war rages on Beirut Syria’s president accused the West on Wednesday of backing al-Qaeda in his country’s civil war, warning it will pay a price “in the heart” of Europe and the U.S. as the terror network becomes emboldened. Bashar Assad also lashed out at Jordan for allowing “thousands” of fighters to enter Syria through its borders. The rare TV interview comes as the embattled president’s military is fighting to reverse rebel advances, with a rocket attack killing at least 12 people in a village Wednesday. Assad’s full interview was to be aired later Wednesday on the gov-

rebel units fighting to topple Assad. Washington has designated the Nusra Front a terrorist organization over its links with al-Qaeda. The Obama administration opposes directly arming Syrian opposition fighters, in part out of fear that the weapons could fall into the hands of Islamic extremists. The Syrian conflict began with protests demanding reforms and turned into a war in response to a military crackdown. More than 70,000 people have been killed, according to the United Nations. Assad’s comments follow statements from Western and Arab officials that Jordan has been facilitating arms shipments and hosting training camps for Syrian rebels. Over the years, Syria has called Jordan a “puppet” of America because of its strong alliance with the U.S. ZEINA K AR AM (AP)

Iran’s main state TV channel said Wednesday that one person was killed in Iran. (AP)

Washington Incidents are frequently reported in which people on the Metro tracks are struck by trains. Less often reported are the times when people are pulled to safety. They are “not terribly common,” Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said. But they happen. One such case occurred last week at the Pentagon City station with a little less margin for safety than might be hoped.
On Thursday, a man who was texting “walked right off the platform” as a train was arriving at about 6:40 p.m. Jennifer Buchanan of Annandale, Va., and her father, Kent Wright, who was visiting from Massachusetts, sprang into action. As related by her husband, Jack Buchanan — who stayed home while his wife and father-in-law headed for a hockey game — the man fell in front of the pair. “They could see the lights [of the approaching train] entering the station,” he said. Wright, who is in his 70s, started pulling the man’s torso back toward the platform.
Weekend Update Metro track work is set to last from 10 p.m. Friday to midnight Sunday.
Red Line: Judiciary Square station will be closed. Free shuttle buses will operate between Union Station and Gallery Place. Orange Line: The Court House and Clarendon stations will be closed. Shuttle buses will operate between Virginia Square and Rosslyn. Blue and Yellow lines: Trains will share a track between Braddock Road and Pentagon City. Green Line: Trains will share a track between College Park and Greenbelt.
Jennifer Buchanan grabbed for the man’s leg, her husband said. As others in the station shouted for the train to stop, the daughter and father pulled the man to safety. “It all happened in a flash,” Jack Buchanan said. The man offered his thanks, Buchanan said. Then, apparently more interested in getting to the game on time than being hailed as heroes, his wife and her father boarded a train for the game. She did send her husband a quick text from the train.“We just saved somebody’s life,” it read. MARTIN WEIL (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Sexting Case in Court Three high school students face child pornography charges Fairfax Three Fairfax County high school students made cellphone videos of drunken sex acts with fellow teens and shared them, authorities said. When they go on trial today, they face a charge usually reserved for hardened, adult predators: child pornography. The case is one of a number around Virginia where teens caught “sexting” have been charged with the felony that can carry a sen-
tence of 20 years in prison and may require registry as a sex offender. Like Maryland and many other states, Virginia does not have a law governing the combustible mix of teens, technology and sex that has made sexting a major issue across the country. Prosecutors must rely on their own discretion and a patchwork of laws created before the rise of smartphones to handle such cases. The situation has some parents and rights’ groups calling for a new law that would distinguish sexting from child pornography, create lesser punishments and focus on educating kids not punishing them. But they also acknowledge that

young victims can be devastated when embarrassing photos or videos are spread among their peers. Parents of two teens in Ohio and Florida say their daughters committed suicide after sexually explicit images of them were forwarded to many students. Fairfax County Commonwealth Attorney Ray Morrogh declined to discuss the case, but authorities have said two 16-year-olds and a 15-year-old from West Springfield High School were charged with possession and distribution of child pornography in January after they filmed themselves engaging in sex acts with at least six teen girls.

Cuccinelli to Release Tax Returns Richmond, Va. Republicans have made it clear that they hope to poke holes in Democratic gubernatorial hopeful Terry McAuliffe’s business record, just as Democrats did to Mitt Romney. Now the GOP is taking another page out of the campaign’s playbook. Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli, the Republican nominee for governor, announced Wednesday that he would let the media see his
tax returns for the past eight years. An hour after his announcement , t he V i rginia Republican Part y publicly called on McAuliffe to release his own returns. “After improperly failing to disCuccinelli close his financial ties to Star Scientific while he was supposed to be pursuing
them for unpaid taxes, Ken Cuccinelli is intent on distracting from his ongoing scandal,” McAuliffe spokesman Josh Schwerin said Wednesday, referring to Cuccinelli’s failure to disclose for nearly a year that he owned substantial stock in Star Scientific while his office was defending Virginia in a tax lawsuit filed by the company. He did not did not say whether McAuliffe would release his tax returns. BEN PERSHING (THE WASHINGTON POST )

What is the single biggest problem or issue in the District right now?
What is the single biggest problem or issue in the District right now?
Not getting the results we want from our investments. That’s true in schools, where we face a tremendous achievement gap and have been faced with the difficult task of having to close schools in neighborhoods east of the Anacostia River, where education should be the greatest source of hope for the future. It’s true in how we spend our dollars in job training, in which residents find there is no work in the end. And it’s true with our budget, which is nearly $10 billion dollars, yet we still have more than 600 homeless children and their moms and dads living in a dilapidated former hospital. …
Helping young people succeed in school, find good jobs and success with their careers and families. We are currently arresting twice as many young people for marijuana each year as we are graduating from high school. We are saddling young people with permanent criminal records, which derails their chances to find work or pursue their education. Meanwhile, a large percentage of our kids are assigned to failing schools, which don’t provide them with marketable skills. … Internships have replaced jobs. … Student loans are crippling. … Helping kids is our biggest single issue.
What is the most promising trend that you see happening in the city?
What is the most promising trend that you see happening in the city?
The growth in both population and retail is promising, but change is hard. The city’s demographics are altering, and longtime residents, particularly African-American residents, are feeling the city is no longer for them. I will work as council member to make sure longtime residents feel D.C. is still their home and to welcome newer residents, as well.
Same answer — our kids. This generation coming up … may be the most amazing generation of Americans ever. Surveys show they are confident, despite the recession and lack of jobs. They are connected in ways their elders never dreamed of. And they are the most open-minded and tolerant Americans who ever lived. … Thanks to young people, Obama is in the White House and marriage equality is the law of the land — changes that we oldtimers could never have accomplished without them. … By any objective standard, we are truly blessed.
Why is this election important? Our public trust has been broken by the repeated scandals. … This election is another step toward restoring that trust, which has slowly been strengthened through the elections of Ward 5 council member Kenyan McDuffie and at-large council member David Grosso, who has endorsed me. My campaign is focused on ethics, accountability and making good strategic investments … I do not take corporate contributions, and I believe that is an important step toward ending the pay-to-play culture.
>>
Why is this election important? But what are we doing for kids coming up today? … This election is about kids, and what we can do to make their lives better. Decriminalization. Schools that teach marketable skills. Real jobs, with living wages. That’s what I have been fighting for. How long will I be able to keep fighting for kids? You all will let me know on April 23.

Cover Story Developments
Clues and Confusion
The hunt for a suspect in the Boston attack generates conflicting reports Boston
Online Vigilantes Ease Their Efforts
JULIO CORTEZ/AP
Rumors of possible breakthroughs in the Boston Marathon bombings sent Boston — and a riveted nation — on a wild cycle of ups and downs Wednesday as conflicting information emerged over whether a suspect was in custody. Several news organizations reported earlier in the day that a suspect had been identified from surveillance video between the sites of Monday’s two bomb blasts, which killed three people and wounded more than 170. Boston City Council President Stephen Murphy seemingly confirmed the report, saying Wednesday afternoon that investigators had pinpointed an image on surveillance footage of a man dropping off a bag containing one of the bombs. But Murphy said he did not know if the man has been identified. “They may be on the verge of arresting someone and that’s good,” he said. The Boston Globe also said authorities were reviewing an image of a potential suspect “carrying, and perhaps dropping, a black bag” at the scene. A photo circulating on Reddit appeared to show a man wearing a backpack at the site and then walking away without it. Still, those reports had not been independently confirmed as of Express’ deadline, and the FBI and Boston police said in an afternoon briefing that no arrests had been made, despite media reports to the contrary. If authorities do indeed have a suspect, it would be a major development in the massive probe of the lethal bombings, in which devices crafted from pressure cookers and stuffed with nails and ball bearings exploded near the finish line. With no one claiming responsibility for Monday’s attack, hun-
INTERNE T WATCH
Apparently convinced they could supplement the FBI’s Boston Marathon investigation, vigilantes on Reddit, 4chan and other online message boards began crowdsourced sleuthing overnight Tuesday. But as photos went viral, some backed off — noting, as critics had, that such meddling could hurt innocent people. Reddit also seems to have stepped in: Shortly after 1 p.m., the “findBostonbombers” forum added a thread to confirm people as innocent. It followed a moderator’s post of rules for the amateur sleuths. Among the rules: Do not make any images go viral. Do not speculate. (T WP)
Investigators pick through debris near the finish line of the Boston Marathon on Wednesday, two days after the deadly attack.
Behind the Bombs Pressure cookers, with their tight seals, are a simple way to conceal explosive material, which can be packed among shrapnel. A timer or remote control triggers a chemical reaction that releases immense energy that expands outward. The pressure cooker shatters, and its remains and contents are propelled outward in a dangerous burst. Such improvised explosive devices, or IEDs, are commonly used in Afghanistan, Nepal, India and Pakistan. (T WP)
“The person who did this was someone’s friend, co-worker or neighbor. Somebody knows who did this.” — RICHARD DE SL AURIERS, THE SPECIAL AGENT IN CHARGE OF THE FBI’S BOSTON OFFICE, DISCUSSING WITH THE BOSTON GLOBE THE HUNT FOR A SUSPECT IN MONDAY’S ATTACK
dreds of investigators in Boston and Washington are combing through more than 2,000 video and still images of the race route, searching for clues that might help determine whether the bombings were an act of domestic or foreign terrorism, planned by an organized enemy or a lone person. Law enforcement agencies have
pleaded for the public to come forward with photos, videos or any information that might help them solve the twin bombings. Police also gathered surveillance video from businesses around the finish line. The danger in any such investigation is that officials will be so overwhelmed by raw data that important clues may be missed. Philip Mudd, a former senior official at the FBI and the CIA, said that “99.4 percent of what you have is chaff. The wheat will emerge, but it could take a few days unless you get a break.” Investigators in white jumpsuits fanned out across the streets, rooftops and awnings around the blast site in search of clues Wednesday. They combed through debris amid the toppled drink dispensers, trash cans and plastic cups strewn across the street at the finish line. (AP/ THE WASHINGTON POST )
CONFIRMED
Third Victim Identified Lingzi Lu, a graduate student from China, was identified Wednesday as the third person killed in Monday’s bombings. Boston University said Lu, a graduate student studying mathematics and statistics there, was watching the race. (T WP)
COMMUNIT Y
Runners Show Solidarity Runners in D.C. and across the country laced up their shoes Wednesday to run in honor of Monday’s victims, spurred by an online “Run for Boston” campaign. Students at Boston College also said they would walk the final 5 miles of the route Friday because, organizers said, “we decide when our marathon ends.” (E XPRESS/ T WP)

As hockey underwent a renaissance in Washington six years ago, Alex Ovechkin was the architect. His dynamic scoring prowess and natural ability captivated the city, the NHL and the world as he rose to superstardom, all while a resuscitated fan base at Verizon Center chanted “M-V-P!” on a regular basis. Back then, those chants were justified as Ovechkin collected Hart and Maurice Richard trophies as the league’s most valuable player and leading goal scorer in 2008 and 2009. But as his point totals declined in each of the three seasons that followed, many wondered if Ovechkin had lost a step or was simply washed up, sentiments that have been echoed again this season. A slow start for both Ovechkin and the Capitals did nothing to dispel those ideas, but as the regular season winds down, the Capitals are in position to win the Southeast Division, while Ovechkin leads the league with 28 goals.
By definition, the Hart Trophy is given to the “player judged to be the most valuable to his team.” The Capitals’ recent resurgence has directly correlated to the personal resurgence of their captain. Ovechkin has scored 19 goals in his past 18 games and Washington is 14-3-1 in those games. When the streak began on March 14, the Capitals were in 14th place in the Eastern Conference and fourth place in the Southeast Division, trailing the first-place Hurricanes by 10 points. After Tuesday’s 5-1 win over the Maple Leafs, the Capitals are in third place in the conference and first in the division with a four-point lead over the second-place Jets. Fifteen of Washington’s 19 losses this season share a common theme: Ovechkin failed to score a goal.

STATISTICS ENTERING WEDNESDAY NIGHT’S GAMES; GWG=GAME-WINNING GOALS
Ovechkin’s slow start (nine goals in his first 25 games) could hurt his MVP chances, but there is recent precedent that proves that a strong finish can circumvent that. Two years ago, Anaheim’s Corey Perry scored 19 goals in his last 16 games to capture both the Hart and Richard trophies, a feat that Ovechkin could duplicate this year. Washington’s competition could also hinder Ovechkin’s chances to win MVP. The Caps star has scored 22 of his 28 goals against the weak Southeast Division and teams currently out of playoff contention. But Ovechkin doesn’t make the Caps’ schedule, and Washington has played more than half of its games against division foes and nonplayoff teams. There are plenty of qualified candidates this season — Pittsburgh’s Sidney Crosby, Chicago’s Jonathan Toews and Patrick Kane, and the New York Islanders’ John Tavares — and Ovechkin should be included. Over the past two months, there has been another — albeit small — renaissance in Washington, and it could lead to Ovechkin winning his third MVP. ADAM VINGAN (FOR EXPRESS)

After returning from a knee injury, the point guard energized the team with his court presence and speed. Wall answered critics by improving weaker aspects of his game, including his shooting. He averaged a career high in points (18.4 points a game). Grade: B+
The No. 3 pick in the draft started slow but gave Washington a nice outside threat and consistent production when healthy. He had several nagging injuries throughout the year and will have to use the offseason to build his body for the NBA grind. Grade: B+
The low-risk offseason pickup was one of the year’s biggest success stories, as the veteran forward rediscovered his shooting stroke to become one of the league’s top 3-point shooters. He also established himself as team leader. Grade: A
He bounced around from starter to reserve without much complaint and continued to excel as a defender. For what the Wizards are paying him, however, there has to be disappointment that he didn’t fully take over as the starting small forward. Grade: C
Kevin Seraphin
Nene
Emeka Okafor
Randy Wittman
He played in the secondmost games on the team. The Wizards can overlook some of the forward’s mistakes, but he needs to show more development as a low-post presence. Grade: C
He started only 49 games because of injuries, and had a five-year low in points (12.6 ppg) and rebounds (6.7 rpg). The center can be effective when healthy, but can the Wizards rely on him going forward? Grade: B-
After a slow start, Okafor stabilized in a three-month stretch from January to March, when he nearly averaged a double-double. The center provided a steady veteran presence. Grade: B-
The team bought into the coach’s commitment to defense, ranking in the top 10 in points allowed and rebounding, but the Wizards’ inability to win on the road and against poor teams is a concern. Grade: C

Cabinets and closets in American households might currently contain more than 10 gallons worth of harmful chemicals, but with harmful chemicals getting a bad rap all around, experts say this number will likely decrease each year.
Although they’re disguised by names like formaldehyde, phenol, hydrochloride acid, perchlorethylene and petroleum distillates, toxic chemicals lurk in everything from the fragrances of air fresheners to carpet cleaners; dishwasher detergents to furniture polish. There’s plenty of clear evidence that these harsh chemicals pose a health danger, and there are other chemicals out there that have never even been tested.

With live actors, visuals, and music, this concert experience reveals the illuminating stories found “inside” Tchaikovsky’s score, followed by a performance of the work in its entirety.

GREG ENDRIES/FX NETWORK
In September, “Totally Biased With W. Kamau Bell” will totally rule FXX’s late-night lineup.
Weeknight Warrior TV host W. Kamau Bell gets a big promotion: anchoring the new FXX Comedy While NBC executives were staying up late last month pondering the fates of Jay Leno, Jimmy Fallon and “The Tonight Show,” a relative newcomer was unknowingly changing the landscape of late-night. At the end of March, W. Kamau Bell, the host of FX’s weekly topical comedy series “Totally Biased,” was invited to a dinner with FX head John Landgraf, a network VP and Chris Rock, the show’s executive producer. Bell figured the FX guys just wanted to check in and say “good job,” since they’re not often in New York, where the show tapes. “I’m still at the point in my career where a free meal is exciting,” Bell says. Landgraf quickly got down to business: FX was launching two new networks — news to Bell — and he want-
ed “Totally Biased” to become a daily presence on the young-adult-oriented FXX. Oh, and they were going to announce all of this in 48 hours. Suddenly, Bell, who has taped just 19 episodes of “Totally Biased” since its debut last fall, was looking at the prospect of doing five episodes a week (four new, one best-of), a staggering 130-episode order. “The funny thing is, we still have seven more weekly episodes [from May 9 through June, on FX], so I think I have to focus on those because if I mess those up, they may decide not to do the rest of them,” Bell says. Bell wasn’t completely surprised by the upgrade. Before “Totally Biased” premiered, back when it had a measly sixepisode order, FX brought up the idea of going daily one day, but, Bell says, “I was like, ‘I haven’t been on TV once.’ … So, we weren’t talking about it that much.” When the daily, FXX version of “Totally Biased” premieres on Sept. 2 (timed to coincide with the network’s launch), it will compete nightly at 11
“The most valuable thing to come out of ‘Totally Biased’ is the mentorship Chris Rock has given to me. It just so happens that it airs on TV.”
against “The Daily Show With Jon Stewart,” which helped inform the template of Bell’s show. Bell doesn’t see the two as direct competitors, though. “I think we’re pulling in an audience that likes ‘The Daily Show,’ but it’s also a different audience,” Bell says. “We’re a little more lefty and progressive and liberal than they are. And we’re more cultural than political.” That last bit is an important distinction. Bell doesn’t consider himself a political comedian by choice: He fell into it because “I started telling jokes
about the possibility of having a black president named Barack Obama.” Even though he looked at Obama from a racial perspective, he started getting booked for politically themed standup shows in San Francisco (where he lived for 15 years before relocating to New York). “It was placed upon me because a black guy talking about the president becomes a political comedian,” Bell says. When “Totally Biased” premiered, in the heat of the 2012 presidential election, Bell again felt obligated to focus on politics. Since the election, he’s experimented with the show’s subject matter and format (which usually goes something like: monologue, break, filmed piece, break, guest monologue or another bit, break, guest). On a recent episode, Bell did an animated story about the time he got way too high at Coachella. Other shows have included a puppet, a performance from musical comedian Reggie Watts, and fake, absurdist Valentine’s Day cards presented by Hannibal Buress. “I think the show is most successful when it feels like ‘Sesame Street’ for grown-ups,” Bell says. Before Bell moves to late-night fulltime, he still has some stand-up shows to perform, including his stop Sunday in D.C. at Sixth and I Historic Synagogue. “I was joking with my manager: ‘Does this mean on Sept. 2 I announce my retirement from stand-up comedy?’ ” Bell says. It’s not that extreme, but with the increased workload, Bell isn’t sure what his stand-up career will look like this fall. “So, D.C.,” Bell says, “come see me, or you’ll never see me in real life again.” RUDI GREENBERG (E XPRESS)
Sixth and I Historic Synagogue, 600 I St. NW; Sun., 8 p.m., $20; 202-408-3100, Sixthandi.org. (Gallery Place)
Sharing the Spotlight One thing that distinguishes “Totally Biased With W. Kamau Bell” from other late-night shows is the way Bell features comedians. Rather than relegate them to the last five minutes for a quick bit of stand-up, he’ll let a guest deliver a monologue midshow. Bell says he’d rather have an openly gay comic like Guy Branum, one of his writers, talk about gay marriage than himself. “He can be more biased,” Bell says. His spotlighting of comedians is part of his pay-it-forward attitude (Chris Rock helped get him the gig). Further evidence: “Totally Biased” writer Aparna Nancherla, above left, who grew up in the D.C. area, will open for Bell on Sunday at Sixth and I. “The more [“Totally Biased”] sounds like a playground for comedians, the better,” he says.

Do You Speak Artist? Koons strikes a dolphin-riding pose in front of his “Antiquity 3, 2001” in Germany last summer.
Exhibits
What will you talk about Thursday?
I’ve just been working on a body of work called “Antiquity.” It’s about the connections and the sense of almost a biological family that comes from dealing with a community of references from one artist to another. You’ve used “readymades” — objects, like vacuum cleaners, you call art. What draws you to them?
It’s a metaphor for acceptance. You learn to go inward and then you start accepting the external world.
This Mortal Call
In “Disconnect,” opening Friday, Jason Bateman’s character essentially has an emotional affair with his phone, which rips his family apart. Still, he fares somewhat better than most people who pick up the phone in movies. KRISTEN-PAGE KIRBY (EXPRESS)
RALPH ORLOWSKI/GETTY IMAGES
American artist Jeff Koons has exhibited giant, shiny, stainlesssteel balloon dogs, a 40-foot-tall puppy made of flowering plants and self-portraits of himself in X-rated positions with his thenwife, an Italian porn star. His statue of a German peddler, “Kiepenkerl,” outside the Hirshhorn Museum, is atypically understated. Ahead of his Thursday lecture there, Koons spoke to us in language so perplexing it could practically be a piece of his art.
LD ENTERTAINMENT
Jeff Koons describes his creative process in characteristically mystifying terms
FILM RIFFS
1 “Ransom” Mel Gibson gets very shout-y in this 1996 thriller, possibly because Gary Sinise kidnapped his son. Or possibly his connection was bad. We’ll never know.
It always comes down to the act of acceptance, just saying something is perfect in what it is.
You have assistants doing your hands-on work. Has that changed the creative process for you?
The traveling museum Salvage Art Institute featured one of your balloon dogs that got broken in transit. Is broken art still perfect?
If I were working on a painting by myself it could take me four years. In the system I’ve created, every mark on that painting is a mark that I’m responsible for, exactly the way I would do it if my own hand did it.
You can find a hierarchy of the significance of different things, but not of value, of being. Everything is perfect for what it is.
To reduce everything down to the movement of a body part — I’m talking about not only physical gesture, but intellectual gesture. A much broader range of gesture is incorporated into the creation of a work of art.

Air Force Memorial
Did You Know?
It makes sense that a memorial dedicated to those who, as their song says, “live in fame or go down in flame,” was inspired by a badass stunt maneuver. The three stainless steel spires, the tallest of which is 270 feet, mimic the Air Force Thunderbird Demonstration Team’s “bomb burst,” in which four fighter jets fly straight up in tight formation and then diverge. The monument is particularly striking at night. During the summers, the Air Force Band plays on Friday evenings. One Air Force Memorial Drive, Arlington; Airforcememorial.org.

WOW, THIS MONUMENT SURE LOOKS SHARP

ii Lost for words? A Washington Post critic compared the monument (favorably) to “ribs of a crown roast, or a metallic flower or the graceful ends of a scallion sliced for the crudites platter.” ii The star embedded in the granite at the spires’ base appears on Air Force planes and on the insignia of every enlisted member.
2 “Dial M for Murder” Here’s the plan in this 1954 Hitchcock film: Ask Bad Guy to murder your cheating wife; you call her, and while she’s on the phone, Bad Guy comes out of hiding and gets a-stranglin’. What could go wrong? (A lot.)
3 “Swingers” Lots of people die on the phone in movies. Jon Favreau lives in this 1996 comedy, but he leaves a series of answering-machine messages so awkward that death starts to look pretty good.
4 “A Nightmare On Elm Street” In the 1984 horror classic, our heroine is on the phone when Freddy Krueger puts his mouth where the mouthpiece is and tongues his victim. Now let’s all go brush our teeth.
5 “Taken” Would this 2008 film have turned out differently had Liam Neeson texted the guys who grabbed his daughter? “i dont no who u r but ill look 4 u & Finn u & kill u. :(”

Weekend Pass | entertainment In the first song, Cathy is mourning the death of her marriage after her husband’s affair. In the second, Jamie is thrilled by his great first date with Cathy. The two share the stage only once, in the middle of the show, at their wedding. The structure serves as more than a gimmick (and a way to keep the show from having such a downer ending). Gardiner says the opposing timelines make it clear that the two characters, as much as they love each other, “are passing ships who never really connect.”
WHO THE HECK IS ...
JEN KIRKMAN?
“Chelsea Lately” Kirkman has written for Chelsea Handler’s nightly E! talk show, a formidable player in late-night. She regularly appears as a panelist and on the behind-the-scenes semi-reality series set at their offices, “After Lately.”
“The Pod F. Tompkast” Paul F. Tompkins, of “Best Week Ever” fame, hosts this sometimes-scripted podcast full of monologues and sketches. Many episodes have wrapped up with Kirkman and Tompkins catching up over the phone, recounting awkward stories and chatting about life like old friends.
“Drunk History” If you’ve studied Frederick Douglass but haven’t seen Kirkman’s Douglass-themed episode of Funny or Die’s “Drunk History,” forget any actual facts and watch. After she downs two bottles of wine and narrates a faux-historical depiction of Douglass’ relationship with Abraham Lincoln — in which she abruptly stops narrating to ask, “I didn’t take my pants off, did I?”— Kirkman will win your heart forever.

5 Years in 4 Weeks
TERESA WOOD
She doesn’t have kids, she doesn’t want to have kids and she doesn’t plan to have kids. The title of the 38-year-old comedian’s new memoir, “I Can Barely Take Care of Myself,” sums it up. Here’s how you can get to know this snarky stand-up before her shows in Arlington this weekend.
In “The Last Five Years,” Jamie and Cathy (James Gardiner and Erin Weaver) slowly realize their marriage won’t last.
It’s Just So Complicated ‘The Last Five Years’ poignantly portrays a failed marriage, in song Theater Actors don’t have to like their characters, but they do have to understand them. When it came to his role as a selfcentered adulterer in “The Last Five Years,” now at Signature Theatre, it took James Gardiner years to succeed. “It’s very interesting to examine this piece as a married guy,” says Gardiner,
INDIES & ARTIES
who plays the musical’s leading man, Jamie. He last played the role a decade ago, when he was 19. “At that age, I saw Jamie as the bad guy,” he says. “Now that I am married it’s just changed. It’s not black-andwhite and there are issues you have to deal with.” “Five Years” has a simple plot: Two people fall in love, marry, fall out of love and divorce. What sets it apart from other musicals is the structure: The show is mostly a series of solos, with Cathy (Erin Weaver) telling the story backward and Jamie telling it forward.
Originally, James Gardiner was working with director Aaron Posner and Erin Weaver on “Crimes of the Heart.” When another actor dropped out, Signature decided to switch shows just four weeks before opening instead of recasting. “We found out a week, a week and a half before we were supposed to go into rehearsals,” Gardiner said. (F.Z.)
“My biggest fear was looking out in the audience and seeing people who are disgusted. But I don’t feel that anymore.”
Gardiner’s character bears the burden of being the one who cheats. But he’s not the villain, just a screwed-up human in a tough situation. “Some people think the infidelity ended the marriage, but that’s just the icing,” Gardiner says. Though Gardiner has run into audience members who side with one character or the other, he feels the show’s nuance lifts it above “Team Jamie” and “Team Cathy” pettiness. “The first few days of rehearsal, I kept saying, ‘God, Jamie’s an asshole,’ but [director Aaron] Posner said, ‘Stop judging him,’ ” Gardiner says. “My biggest fear was looking out in the audience and seeing people who are disgusted. But I don’t feel that anymore.”

Restaurant regulars and industry insiders know that menus don’t always tell the whole story. Additional offerings lurk beyond every bill of fare; you just need to know how to ask for them. Knowledge of off-menu items — retired favorites, test recipes that never got off the ground, winks to frequent diners — can make you feel like a culinary operative, so we’re presenting intel on a few of D.C.’s best underground treats. Keep in mind that off-menu items typically appeal to connoisseurs of the cuisine in which the restaurant specializes, so they may be more esoteric than what’s printed for all to see.

Partiers and gluttons for punishment are familiar with picklebacks: a shot of whiskey followed by a shot of pickle juice. Mandu (453 K St. NW; 202-2896899) gives the standard a Korean twist with kimchibacks, a shot of Jameson chased with a shot of juice from the restaurant’s homemade kimchee supply ($7). “There was a craze of picklebacks across the city,” says Mandu owner Danny Lee, “and we realized kimchee is basically spicy Korean pickle juice. So we tried it, and it spread pretty quickly. Industry friends will come in expecting to take one.” The vinegary kimchee counteracts the throat burn of the Jameson and even has antioxidant properties.

BRITISH DUBSTEP DJ RUSKO has been blowing up in recent years as EDM (electronic dance music) has continued to grow in popularity. Before summer festival season heats up, Rusko will headline an intimate late-night (10 p.m.) show at the 9:30 Club Thursday. Think of it as a chance to try out your dance moves in a dark place, rather than a sunny, festival field.

Set Fire to the Pages Adele turns down a seven-figure offer to write her memoir 27
much-anticipated second season, which airs Sunday nights at 10 p.m. From the neck up, Louis-Dreyfus is veeped-out and ready for the rest of the day’s scenes, sporting the careful, chin-length tresses (it’s a wig) of her Emmy-winning character, Vice President Selina Meyer.
Broadcast Muse
BETH DUBBER/FOX
“This isn’t some sweetie, and Julia is quite happy to portray her brutally.”
Mindy Makes Good
Read Marc’s previous columns at: readexpress.com/muse
— A R M A NDO I A NNUCCI, CREATOR OF “VEEP,” ON JULIA LOUIS-DREYFUS
LACEY TERRELL/HBO
Mindy, you get better every week! “The Mindy Project” is the Fox sitcom in which actor/writer/producer Mindy Kaling plays a Big Apple doc obsessed with rom-coms and unlucky in love. The show (9:30 p.m. Tuesdays) was unfocussed at first. How can “Dr. Mindy Lahiri” be such a smart doc and such a ninny? Now “Mindy” has found its mission: depicting the hilarity of awkwardness, punctuated with wry oneliners to distract you By Marc from plot inconsistenSilver cies. So if you thought Mindy broke up with her minister crush and were surprised, two weeks later, to find them in bed, with the minister talking to God behind Mindy’s back … just roll with it and enjoy the show’s sharp humor. Examples: At a surprise birthday party, Mindy is showered with gloomy gifts, like a microwave-cooking-for-one book. To a man whose apartment has a view of a wall, she says: “Is your building inside of another building?” She inadvertently picks up a male prostitute at a bar, then does a “Pretty Woman” on him and brings him as her date to a party. The prostitute announces: “It’s time I embrace who I really am. Guys, I am a prostitute.” Seeking to save face, Mindy goes, “Psych!”
After the first season of “Veep,” Julia Louis-Dreyfus, above, won an Emmy for portraying fictional Vice President Selina Meyer.
Political Whimsy Julia Louis-Dreyfus loves playing the most hilariously frustrated ‘Veep’ to ever serve Television “Veep,” HBO’s wickedly delicious comedy about a vice president vainly trying to gain some political mojo in Washington, is mostly filmed in the drabbest possible warehouse in a Howard County, Md., suburb. A visitor becomes lost in its sylvan splay of strip malls and office parks.
“Yeah, really,” Julia Louis-Dreyfus says, closing the door to her trailer, which sits in a crammed, fenced-off parking lot. “It’s sort of fitting, isn’t it?” she asks with that half-sarcastic sass that you recognize in the characters she’s played. “We’re pulling back the curtain on Washington and look here — pull back the curtain on showbiz and what have you got? Columbia, Maryland.” On a recent afternoon, LouisDreyfus and the rest of the cast and crew are putting in a long day finishing the last few scenes in“Veep’s”
Season Preview
Power Struggle This season, “Veep” creator Armando Iannucci says, the story pushes further toward the Oval Office, bringing on new characters (including Gary Cole as a preening adviser), and exposes some of Selina’s deeper vulnerabilities. She gets a larger role in a foreign crisis; her ambitions grow, but her staff grows weary of her outbursts. (T WP)
In “Veep,” Selina is mainly the victim of her own hubris, casting about on a sea of political whim and raw ambition. Her frequent public gaffes travel at the speed of tweet, leaving her in a perpetual state of damage control. But what the public sees of Selina is nothing compared to what goes down in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building, where the vice president is a foul-mouthed, egocentric boss surrounded by an inept and panicky staff. The show works, Louis-Dreyfus says, because “it’s not noble.” This is a TV version of Washington that is neither scandalous nor intriguing nor Shakespearean. Nor does it buy into the notion that Washington operates under a master plan. It’s a wallow in the town’s most narcissistic tendencies. “I like the fakery, and I like the moments where she comes out of the fakery,” Louis-Dreyfus says. “The rawness to it, the peeledback-layer aspect. The moments you’re not supposed to witness.” HANK STUE VER (THE WASHINGTON POST )
Episode Pulled: Fox has pulled from Fox.com and Hulu.com a recent episode of “Family Guy” that depicts mass deaths at the Boston Marathon. In the episode, which aired March 17, Peter Griffin is shown mowing down runners with his car. Later, he meets a terrorist who plots to blow up a bridge. An edited clip has been circulating online that fuses the two scenes, making it seem — incorrectly — as if there was an explosion at the marathon. (AP)

Headphone Zone Iron & Wine’s dense, intricate new album, ‘Ghost on Ghost,’ was made for close listens Music Sam Beam of Iron & Wine makes music for your headphones. Sure, you could listen on a laptop, but you’d be missing so much. “I like as a listener to find some little percussive elements or some little throwaway melodies in there that you only really catch if you’re listening on the headphones,” Beam says. “It creates an extra level of interest, hopefully.” Beam has achieved an extra level of interest in his music by creating dense sound collages that dance and move like fabric in the wind, yet remain true to the wandering spirit
Iron & Wine Ghost on Ghost
he unveiled while using an acoustic guitar and a four-track recorder to learn the craft. “Ghost on Ghost,” the 38-yearold’s fifth album as Iron & Wine, is his most complex yet, blooming with large arrangements and tiny flourishes so intricate they barely resemble his spare early sound.
“I make music and hope people enjoy it. But when they do, it’s always a surprise. A nice surprise.”
Over time, he added producer Brian Deck, gradually included percussion and more complex instrumentation, strings and horns until he’s arrived at something like indie R&B crossed with jazz and ’60s pop in an acoustic engineer’s imagination. “Ghost on Ghost” features large melodies and arrangements made up of dozens of moving parts. Those with headphones jacked will find a jazzy breakdown in opener “Caught in the Briars,” a mouth harp that serves incongruously as a bouncy counterpoint to a smoky saxophone on “Low Light Buddy of Mine” and a strange call-and-response chorus hidden in the grandeur of “Lovers’ Revolution.” “I don’t like the idea of putting the same record out twice,” says the South Carolina-born Beam. “I think that’s kind of short-sighted and it’s not very fun to do.” CHRIS TALBOTT (AP)
Not an iJoke: Funny or Die released its first feature film: “iSteve,” a comedic look at the life of Apple’s Steve Jobs. The 79-minute film, which is streaming for free at Funnyordie.com, stars Justin Long as Jobs, at left, and was written and directed by FOD’s Ryan Perez, who, according to Fastcocreate.com, used Jobs’ Wikipedia page as source material and spent 10 days writing the script and filming. The movie beats the other two Jobs biopics that are still in development. (E XPRESS)

for quality since the magazine was first published in 1888. The first three months of 2013 represented the network’s best quarter since its launch in 2001. The National Geographic Channel averaged 554,000 viewers in prime time, propelled by “Doomsday Preppers,” the “Wicked Tuna” series about fishermen in Gloucester, Mass., and a movie dramatization of “Killing Lincoln.”
Before its makeover, NatGeo was a musty network that aired documentaries with “voice of God” narrators and few reasons for people to watch regularly, Lyle says. He wanted to “add the big E — entertainment” without alienating people. “We have a lot to grow on,” Lyle says. “We have just scratched the surface with the types of shows and the types of people and ideas we can explore.” DAVID BAUDER (AP)

“Farewell, Sheed. Well, I hope you stick around to motivate the Knicks and scream at their opponents and/ or referees, but farewell from the roster.” — SETH AT POSTINGANDTOASTING.COM remarks
on news that Rasheed Wallace is retiring from the New York Knicks after missing most of the season with a foot injury.
“ ‘The Central Park Five’ is not a movie you should watch to learn about something that happened a quarter-century ago. It’s one you should study to identify what might keep us from quickly blaming the most vulnerable the next time a horror causes the public to call for immediate retribution.” — ESTHER CEPEDA AT NBCLATINO.COM reacts to the Ken Burns documentary that aired on PBS on Tuesday night. The film is about five black and Hispanic boys in New York who were convicted in the rape and grisly beating of a white woman jogging in Central Park; they went on to serve six to 13 years in prison before their convictions were thrown out in 2002 because of evidence linking someone else to the crime.

DIFFICULT
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’ll want to take care that you don’t push yourself too far or too fast today. Focus on that which is within reach; remain realistic. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You are surrounded by reminders of a certain episode that you wish to both remember and forget. Work to find a balance. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) It’s a good day to do those things that you are always telling others to do — especially if they pertain to your health. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’ve been trying to break a certain bad habit for quite a while now — but perhaps you merely need to channel that energy elsewhere.
Yesterday’s Solution
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You’re going to have to face a certain uncomfortable reality head-on today, but once you do, expect things to be easier to deal with. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can’t avoid all complications, but you can certainly focus on those things that are at least as streamlined as they can be. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You know what you’re looking at, and you know how to react appropriately — and in a way that gives you room to maneuver. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You’re after more in the way of comfort and harmony at this time than you are likely to find anywhere but at home.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You mustn’t reveal too much about yourself to someone you have only just met. Today you’ll want to test the waters very carefully.

It’d Be Wrong to Write Adele has refused to write her autobiography, despite a seven-figure offer, because she feels that at the age of 24, she’s too young to write a memoir. Britain’s The Mirror newspaper reports that the singer has been approached by multiple publishing houses, including HarperCollins. “She feels she’d rather wait until she has more life experience to write about,” a source said of the singer, who has nine Grammys and an Academy Award. “She’d never say never, but she did say ‘not now.’ ” (E XPRESS)
