Washington state’s transportation department has apologized for an “inappropriate message” that appeared on one of its traffic signs. Ruslan Kozlov told KCPQ-TV he was driving on Interstate 5 south Tuesday afternoon when he spotted the message “U Suck” on an overhead sign. The transportation department said it was “clearly a mistake” that was caused by a “training error.” The agency says it’s taking steps so it doesn’t happen again. (AP)
An unusual pair showed up before dawn at Fire Station 82 in Wayne Township, Ind., last week. At the door was a frantic woman holding a “lethargic” raccoon, fire department spokesman Michael Pruitt said. The woman explained it was her pet — and it was very stoned. “We typically love to help, especially when it comes to animals,” Pruitt said. “But in this case, they just recommended, ‘Hey, the raccoon is going to have to sleep it off.’ ” (TWP)

Cooper Hefner, son of Hugh Hefner, at Playboy’s 2018 New Year’s Eve party in California.
Will D.C. and Playboy mix? The magazine is coming to town, but don’t look for scantily clad bunnies CULTURE The Bunny Beacon will be beaming from Washington in celebration of the White House correspondents’ dinner, the Washington Post’s Reliable Source has exclusively learned. Yes, Playboy is coming to town on April 28 to throw a fist in the air for the First Amendment. But don’t expect any scantily clad bunnies. Playboy’s Saturday night after-party, dubbed the “No Tie Party,” is something of a return to the magazine’s original ethos, according to Cooper
Hefner, the youngest son of Playboy’s late founder, Hugh. “The brand has always been a passionate fighter for the First Amendment and the freedom of the press,” said Hefner, Playboy’s chief creative officer since last year. The magazine also plans to host another event in Washington just weeks after the correspondents’ dinner. The Hugh M. Hefner First Amendment Awards, in their 37th year, will be held at the Newseum in May. Hefner said Playboy has purchased a table at the dinner and he will attend alongside Playboy’s White House correspondent Brian Karem and Playboy chief executive Ben Kohn.
Invites to the after-party have gone out to Anthony Scaramucci, the former White House press secretary profiled in the magazine in early April, as well as to Sen. Jeff Flake, R, of Arizona. But bona fides aside — the actual White House reporter and the magazine’s commitment to free speech — is Washington really the place for Playboy? “D.C. has a tendency to be sort of high-strung,” explained Hefner, who said the “No Tie Party” will be an opportunity for folks from either side of the aisle to relax a bit and talk to one another. And don’t worry if you aren’t on this year’s invite list: Playboy plans to be back in 2019. HELENA

Va. lawmakers reject tax hike to fund Metro
How gridlock could change RESEARCHERS SEE 4 SCENARIOS FOR HOW THE REGION COULD LOOK IN 20 YEARS Curious about what the Washington-Baltimore region might look like in 20 years? Researchers at the University of Maryland say they’ve found a new way to predict how much traffic congestion will worsen, where people will live, and what they’ll pay for housing. The future, researchers say, lies in how quickly — and how much — residents begin using autonomous vehicles, whether gas prices rise or fall, and where governments allow growth. The project — known as Presto — is noteworthy, researchers say, because it looks at the entire region and considers impacts that aren’t typically included in such forecasts, such as air and water quality. Most such forecasts, they say, look at urban areas separately rather than regionwide. Here are the four scenarios the researchers considered — they gave each one a name — and what the models showed would happen in each. KATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Scenario No 1: Revenge of the nerds
Scenario No 2: Free for all
Scenario No 3: Blue planet
Scenario No 4: Last call at the oasis
The conditions: Gas prices are low, government doesn’t regulate growth as much, and people embrace autonomous vehicles.
The conditions: Gas prices are relatively low, and governments allow building in the agricultural preserves of Montgomery, Prince George’s, Fairfax counties and others. There are no major improvements in transit, but toll lanes are built on outer beltways, and another bridge is built to the Eastern Shore.
The conditions: Gas prices rise, stimulating investments in transit and renewable energy, and “green technology” takes off, making zeroemission vehicles more popular and affordable. Autonomous vehicles aren’t widely in use yet, and transit is expanded.
The conditions: Shrinking world supplies of oil cause gas prices to quadruple. Economic growth slows, household incomes fall and the cost of driving increases dramatically. Governments direct growth toward the urban cores and invest in transit, as well as infrastructure for electric vehicles.
What happens: The economy booms, and people drive more. However, because roads can carry more driverless vehicles traveling closer together, traffic congestion actually improves dramatically, including on the Baltimore and Washington beltways. Even so, because driving is convenient and relatively inexpensive, people and jobs move farther out, and transit ridership drops “precipitously” as demand for public transportation is reduced. Cars are more fuelefficient and people spend less time in traffic, but greenhouse gas emissions and other pollution worsen. Because people move farther out, more farmland and forest is developed.
expressline
What happens: New “rural subdivisions” pop up in the agricultural preserves. Housing prices drop significantly, except on the Delmarva Peninsula, because it’s become more accessible via the new bridge. With more jobs and homes moving to the suburbs, people commute shorter distances, which improves traffic. Congestion is also relieved as tolled lanes on the outer beltways take some traffic off other roads. Transit ridership drops significantly.
What happens: Researchers say this scenario is the most sustainable. Traffic congestion drops as new jobs and housing are built closer together, and people can use transit more. Housing prices remain steady as additional housing is built in the inner suburbs. People drive less, and the high number of zero-emission vehicles leads to far less air pollution. As D.C. and the inner suburbs run out of available land, growth “leapfrogs” preserved agricultural areas and eats up more forest. Technological advances, however, leave less pollution running off into waterways.
Actor and Howard alumnus Chadwick Boseman to deliver commencement May 12
What happens: People drive much less, and traffic gets far less congested, while transit ridership increases significantly. Greenhouse gas emissions fall dramatically. Researchers say they’re surprised to find that more new households don’t appear in Baltimore and D.C. Instead, people are attracted to transit-accessible inner suburbs known for good schools and low crime. Housing prices are slightly lower than the baseline because there’s more capacity in the desirable inner suburbs.
Virginia lawmakers have rejected a proposal by Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam to raise taxes to help improve the Washington area’s struggling public transit system. House Republicans voted Wednesday against small increases of real estate and hotel taxes in Northern Virginia to fund Metro. The new taxes would have raised about $30 million a year. Instead, the state will rely more on existing funding for road projects to help cover its $150 million annual commitment for Metro. (AP) MONTGOMERY COUNTY
Police: 33 Chihuahuas found abused in SUV A Maryland man is facing animal cruelty charges after 33 Chihuahuas were found last fall in his SUV. Court records filed in Montgomery County state that 18 dogs appeared to be starving or malnourished. Three were pregnant. Court records say a puppy was euthanized. Its stomach contained uncooked rice, plant material and tinfoil. The dogs’ former owner, Javier Enrique Peralta, 41, of Wheaton, said the dogs were in his SUV because he had been evicted. A trial is set for July. (AP/TWP) PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY
School: Students cut with sharpener blades Seven students at an elementary school in Prince George’s County used the blades of handheld pencil sharpeners to cut themselves, authorities said. The students were seen by a nurse at the school, William Paca Elementary, according to a statement from the county school system. It said the cuts were not considered severe enough to prompt the school to call for emergency medical services. The incident came to light last month when a parent asked to meet with a counselor at the school about her concerns. (TWP)

Nurses to help take 911 calls in District
Produced by
THE DISTRICT Registered nurse Ogechi Ukachu spoke into a telephone headset at the District’s 911 center, fielding an emergency call from a woman complaining of wrist pain. Ukachu asked a series of yes or no questions to determine the caller’s pain level, any blood loss and other symptoms that could pinpoint the extent of the injury. After about a dozen answers, Ukachu determined that the woman needed a trip to an urgent care center — not a ride in a D.C. ambulance. The call was a training exercise, but beginning today registered nurses like Ukachu will process live calls in a program aimed at reducing the crush of non-emergency medical requests that swamp the 911

Puerto Rico goes dark as transmission line hit
verbatim
“He was a very good mayor, a very good governor. ... I’m not going to campaign against someone I’ve been a friend with and worked with.”
Contractor fired after the second major loss of power in one week
SEN. BOB CORKER, R-TENN.,
CARLOS GIUSTI (AP)
PUERTO RICO An island-wide blackout hit Puerto Rico on Wednesday after an excavator accidentally downed a transmission line, officials said, as the U.S. territory struggles to repair an increasingly unstable power grid nearly seven months after Hurricane Maria. Officials said it could take 24 to 36 hours to fully restore power to more than 1.4 million customers, as outrage grew across the island about the state of Puerto Rico’s Electric Power Authority. It was the second major outage in less than a week, with the previous one affecting some 840,000 customers. “This is too much,” said Luis Oscar Rivera, a computer technician who had lost power in the hurricane and got it back less than two months ago. “It’s like the first day of Maria all over again.” Authorities said the same contractor was involved in the two latest big power failures and had been fired. The outage last Thursday was set off when a tree limb fell on a power line as the contractor cleared land in central Puerto Rico and a backup line failed. On Wednesday, an excavator used by the contractor hit a transmission line near the south coast.
A worker in San Juan, Puerto Rico, uses a portable generator Wednesday.
Backup generators roared to life at the island’s largest public hospital and at its main international airport, where officials reported no cancellations or delays. By late in the afternoon, power had returned to several hospitals and at least five of the island’s 78 municipalities. Government officials said that a company hired by Cobra Energy known as Dgrimm was involved in both incidents that led to the power outages. Dgrimm had been asked to change its security protocols after the first incident, said William Rios, power
generation director. Federal officials who testified before Congress last week said they expect to have a plan by June to strengthen and stabilize the island’s power grid, noting that up to 75 percent of distribution lines were damaged by high winds and flooding. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, which is overseeing the federal power restoration efforts, said it hopes to have the entire island fully energized by May. Some 40,000 power customers still remain without normal electrical service as a result of the hurricane. DANICA COTO (AP)

It was the third World War II discovery in less than three weeks by Allen’s R/V Petrel team.

Haley on Russia mix-up: ‘I don’t get confused’ POLITICS An internal White House quarrel over the timing of new Russia sanctions played out in public when the new economic adviser suggested U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley was suffering from “momentary confusion” and Haley retorted: “With all due respect, I don’t get confused.” The feud appeared to quiet down after the economic adviser, Larry Kudlow, called Haley to apologize Tuesday afternoon, a White House official said. The official spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity to describe private discussions. The dispute between Haley’s team and the White House had been playing out largely behind the scenes since Haley said Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin would be announcing new sanctions directed at companies associated with Syria’s chemical weapons program on Monday, “if he hasn’t already.” The White House had been struggling to explain Haley’s remarks amid reports that President Trump put the brakes on the new sanctions. Several administration officials have disputed that characterization, saying Haley was out of the loop. Three senior administration officials said there were several attempts to get Haley to back off or clarify her comments, but she refused. JILL COLVIN, MATTHEW LEE AND ZEKE MILLER (AP)

Ex-Playboy model reaches settlement with tabloid
Cuba on Wednesday selected 57-year-old First Vice President Miguel Diaz-Canel as the sole candidate to succeed President Raul Castro in a transition aimed at ensuring that the country’s singleparty system outlasts the aging revolutionaries who created it. The certain approval of Diaz-Canel by members of the unanimous National Assembly will install someone from outside the Castro family in the country’s highest government office for the first time in six decades. The 86-year-old Castro will remain head of the Communist Party, designated as “the superior guiding force of society and the state.” (AP)
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan caught Turkey off guard Wednesday by calling early elections for June, a move that could cement his grip on power a year ahead of schedule. He announced that parliamentary and presidential elections, originally scheduled for November 2019, will now be held June 24, meaning that a new political system that will increase the powers of the president will take effect a year early. Turkey is switching from a parliamentary system to a presidential one, abolishing the office of the prime minister and decreasing the powers of the parliament, following a referendum last year. (AP)
A former Playboy model who said she had a 10-month affair with President Trump settled her lawsuit Wednesday with a tabloid over an agreement that prohibited her from discussing the relationship publicly. Karen McDougal’s settlement with the company that owns the National Enquirer “restores to me the rights to my life story and frees me from this contract that I was misled into signing nearly two years ago,” she said Wednesday. In August 2016, the tabloid’s parent company, American Media Inc., paid McDougal $150,000 for the rights to her story about the alleged relationship, but the story never ran. (AP)

nation+world His meeting with Kim has shored up some Democratic support POLITICS Secretary of State nominee Mike Pompeo’s newly disclosed trip to North Korea to lay the groundwork for denuclearization talks is earning him grudging praise from senators opposed to his bid to be the nation’s top diplomat — a potentially important development as Pompeo tries to shore up at least some Democratic support for his confirmation vote. “I’m glad that there’s some preparatory work happening for this potential summit between Trump and Kim Jong Un,” Sen. Chris Murphy, a Democrat from

Connecticut and a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Wednesday on MSNBC. “I think we should all admit that it’s good, not bad, that the Trump administration is trying to do some work ahead of this meeting.” “The preparation, certainly, is welcome — there’s no way that Donald Trump should go into that meeting without a lot of groundwork being laid,” said Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn. But he added that as the current CIA director, “Pompeo is the wrong person to be engaging in diplomacy.” The news that Pompeo traveled to Pyongyang as the Trump administration’s envoy to meet with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un

Pompeo critics praise talks
CIA Director Mike Pompeo secretly met with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un over Easter weekend.
is unlikely to change the minds of Democratic senators who have pledged to oppose his nomination. The top Democrat on the Senate
Foreign Relations committee, New Jersey’s Robert Menendez, said that while a denuclearized North Korea is a noble goal, the planned meeting between Trump and Kim “is not a strategy.” Menendez said he would oppose Pompeo’s confirmation. But for other Democrats who supported Pompeo in the past, the revelation of the trip could be the cover they need to back his bid to lead the State Department. “Many Senate Democrats have said or written statements ... that Mike Pompeo was too bellicose,” said Sen. Tom Cotton, R-Ark. He pointed to Pompeo’s meeting with Kim Jong Un as “the best evidence imaginable that he is committed to diplomacy.”

VICTORVILLE, CALIF. | A member of the Victorville public works team clears tumbleweeds Monday from a home in a neighborhood northeast of Los Angeles that faces open desert. High winds forced residents of Victorville to call the city for help as tumbleweeds piled up as high as the second story of some homes. A Victorville spokeswoman told the Daily Press that as many as 150 homes in the neighborhood were affected.

PARRISH, ALA. A stinking trainload of human waste from New York City is stranded in a tiny Alabama town, spreading a stench like a giant backed-up toilet. In Parrish, Ala., population 982, the sludge-hauling train cars have sat idle near the little league ball fields for more than two months, Mayor Heather Hall said. Townspeople are considering rescheduling softball games or playing at other fields. “It smells like rotting corpses, or carcasses,” Hall said. “It smells like death.” This is the latest example of the South being used as a dumping ground for other states’ waste. Alabama’s inexpensive land, permissive zoning laws and a 1980s federal ban on dumping New Yorkers’ excrement in the Atlantic Ocean got the “poop train” chugging, experts say. The cargo is bound for the Big Sky landfill, about 20 miles east of Parrish. Previously, it was transferred from trains to trucks in nearby West Jefferson, but officials there obtained an injunction to keep the sludge out of their town. The train stopped in late January in Parrish, which lacks the zoning regulations to block the train cars. In Parrish, the mayor hopes the train cars are removed before the weather warms up. “We’re moving into the summer, and the summer in the South is not forgiving when it comes to stuff like this,” she said.

Pilot’s ‘nerves of steel’
Passengers praise former fighter pilot who stayed calm during emergency landing

TRANSPORTATION The pilot’s voice was calm yet focused as her plane descended with 149 people on board. “Southwest 1380, we’re single engine,” said Capt. Tammie Jo Shults, a former fighter pilot with the U.S. Navy. “We have part of the aircraft missing, so we’re going to need to slow down a bit.” She asked for medical personnel to meet her aircraft on the runway. “We’ve got injured passengers.” “Injured passengers, OK, and is your airplane physically on fire?” asked a male voice on the other end, according to an air traffic recording. “No, it’s not on fire, but part of it’s missing,” Shults said, pausing for a moment. “They said there’s a hole, and uh, someone went out.” The engine on Shults’ plane exploded on Tuesday, spraying shrapnel into the aircraft, causing a window to be blown out and leaving one woman dead and seven other people injured. Passengers pulled the woman who later died back into the plane as she was being sucked out. The passenger who died was identified as Jennifer Riordan, of Albuquerque, N.M, by her employer, Wells Fargo. Riordan was a community relations leader “who was loved and respected,” Wells Fargo said in a statement. In the midst of the chaos, Shults successfully completed an emergency landing at the Philadelphia International Airport, sparing the lives of 148 people aboard the Boeing 737-700. “She has nerves of steel,” one passenger, Alfred Tumlinson, told The Associated Press. “That lady, I applaud her. I’m going to send her a Christmas card — I’m going to tell you that — with a gift certificate for getting me on the ground. She was awesome.”
Southwest pilot Tammie Jo Shults was among the first female fighter pilots for the U.S. Navy.
Another passenger, Diana McBride Self, thanked Shults on Facebook for her “guidance and bravery in a traumatic situation.” She added that Shults “came back to speak to each of us personally.” “This is a true American Hero,” McBride wrote. Others on social media agreed and compared Shults with Capt. Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, who guided his US Airways plane to safety in New York’s Hudson River in 2009. Southwest declined to name the pilot, though passengers confirmed Shults’ name on social
Fan blade snapped off When investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) examined the broken engine in Philadelphia just hours after it made an emergency landing, they immediately saw that one of its fan blades was missing. NTSB chairman Robert Sumwalt faulted metal fatigue, a weakening of metal from repeated use. Investigators say a fan blade snapped off as the plane cruised at 500 mph. The failure set off a catastrophic chain of events that killed a woman and broke a string of eight straight years without a fatal accident involving a U.S. airliner. The woman died of blunt impact trauma to her head, neck and torso, the coroner said Wednesday. (AP)
media, and Shults’ mother-in-law told The Washington Post she was the pilot. Shults declined to comment when reached by The Post. Her mother-in-law, Virginia Shults, told The Post that as soon as she heard the pilot’s voice on the radio transmission online,

she said, “That is Tammie Jo.” “It was just as if she and I were sitting here talking,” Virginia Shults said. “She’s a very calming person.” Shults’ mother-in-law and friends describe her as a pioneer in the aviation field. She was among the first female fighter pilots for the U.S. Navy, according to her alma mater, MidAmerica Nazarene University. She served in the Navy for 10 years, reaching the rank of Navy lieutenant commander. She left the Navy in 1993 and now lives in the San Antonio area with her husband. She has two children: a teenage son and a daughter in her early 20s. Her mother-in-law described her as a devout Christian, with a faith she thinks may have contributed to her calm state amid the emergency landing. Whatever was going through her mind, Tammie Jo Shults even made time to tell the control tower: “Thank you. … Thanks, guys, for the help.” SAMANTHA SCHMIDT (THE WASHINGTON POST)
A rise in organ transplants has been linked to a similar rise in drug overdose deaths across the nation, according to a study published Tuesday. In 2016, there were 3,533 transplants using organs donated from overdose victims, compared with 149 such transplants in 2000, the study found. Overdose victims made up 1.1 percent of all donors in 2000. In 2017, they made up 13.4 percent. That is contributing to a spike in total organ transplants. According to the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network, a “record number of donor organs were recovered and transplants occurred for each of the four most common organs transplanted — kidney, liver, heart and lung” — in 2017. Although the organs are from people who had risky lifestyles, people who receive such transplants do not appear to have more negative effects over time. That is decidedly good news to the more than 114,000 people who the United Network for Organ Sharing estimates were awaiting transplants as of Tuesday afternoon — though researchers concede it comes with an asterisk. As lead researcher Christine Durand wrote in the journal Annals of Internal Medicine: “This is not an ideal or sustainable solution to the organ shortage.” CLEVE R. WOOTSON JR.

OVERTIME VETERANS
Long games have become a tradition
The Capitals celebrate after a double-overtime goal trimmed their series deficit to 2-1.
CAPITALS AT BLUE JACKETS | GAME 4: 7:30 TONIGHT, NBCSWA
Overtimes take a toll Double OT win in Game 3 lifts spirits, but extra periods tax Capitals — and their fans NHL PLAYOFFS “The legs are definitely tired,” Capitals forward Tom Wilson said late Tuesday night. A few feet away, defenseman Dmitry Orlov was stretching on the floor of the visiting locker room. The treatment room in Columbus, Ohio, was already packed. Blue Jackets coach John Tortorella called the playoffs “a game of attrition,” and, after four overtime periods in three games, this is a series of it. Have some electrolytes. “That’s why you take care of your body, that’s why you’re an athlete,” Wilson said. “That’s what the skate test is for in September.” The infamous skate test of training camp ensures players are conditioned after the summer, but it can’t quite prepare them for this. The first three games of the Eastern Conference quarterfinals between the Capitals and Blue Jackets have all gone to overtime.
Washington’s 3-2 win in double OT on Tuesday took 89 minutes to decide. Ahead of Game 4 tonight, the Capitals have cut their series deficit to 2-1. Both teams have played nearly the equivalent of a whole extra game. “I think what overtime makes you do is concentrate when you’re tired,” Capitals coach Barry Trotz said. “... You can’t cut that corner. You can’t do that fly-by when you’re really tired, you can’t cheat, because those are the times that the puck ends up in the back of the net.” As the Capitals returned to their locker room before the second overtime Tuesday, Wilson said the mood had gotten lighter. Even a few jokes were exchanged. But those 15-minute breaks are just as important for refueling as they are for regrouping. “It’s more just making sure your body is ready, conserving energy at the right times, getting the right stuff in you,” goaltender
Caps flip script on fans After the winning goal deflected off his toe and into the net in double overtime of Game 3 against the Blue Jackets, Capitals center Lars Eller gave perhaps the best description yet of playoff hockey in Washington. When asked if the Capitals have something against deciding games in regulation, Eller replied: “No. I don’t know. It’s the playoffs. Weird things happen.” Up until that moment in the series, Washington fans were nervous wrecks. When “SportsCenter” anchor Steve Levy tweeted that no team had ever lost three straight overtime games to start a playoff series, Capitals fans expected the fact nugget to be a prophesy. “Just when you thought the Caps were all out of new ways to lose in the playoffs,” fan James O’Hara tweeted.“Third straight game going to OT. My heart. My poor heart,” tweeted Ian Oland, who co-founded the popular Russian Machine Never Breaks blog. (TWP)
Braden Holtby said after a brilliant 33-save performance. Both coaches opted to give their players a full day off Wednesday. The Capitals didn’t schedule any off-ice workouts, leaving it up to the players to do what works for them. Hot tubs and cold tubs were available. Even though Columbus is a younger team, Tortorella said he planned to make this morning’s skate optional. “If we’re fatigued three games in, holy crap, we’re just starting,” the coach said. Even with the Capitals’ locker room filled with aching bodies Tuesday, they were feeling pretty good about themselves. “I’m sure they feel a lot more tired in that room than we’re feeling right now,” Lars Eller said after tallying the game winner Tuesday. “It gives you a lot of energy, but it’s going to be a battle again in Game 4.” ISABELLE KHURSHUDYAN

Report: Brady yet to commit for 2018 Despite winning his third NFL MVP award and appearing in his eighth Super Bowl last season, Patriots quarterback Tom Brady has not committed to playing this year, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Wednesday. The report, which said that a source close to Brady would bet “on him playing football for the foreseeable future,” is tied to the quarterback’s absence from voluntary offseason workouts this week. Brady, who turns 41 in August, also reportedly missed part of the program in 2008, 2009 and 2010. Tight end Rob Gronkowski has also been absent from the team’s workouts. Armed with two first-round picks in next week’s draft, the Patriots could target a successor for Brady. (EXPRESS)

Braves sign Bautista, 37, to minor league contract
Alvarez gets reduced ban, could fight by September
Six-time All-Star Jose Bautista, 37, agreed to a minor league contract with Atlanta, the team announced Wednesday. He will receive a $1 million, one-year contract if he’s added to the 40-man major league roster. He will report to the Braves’ camp in Florida for extended spring training to get in shape to play third base. He has played mostly outfield recently. He made $18 million under a one-year deal with Toronto last season but hit just .203 with 23 homers and 65 RBIs in 157 games. Although his batting average has declined, he has hit at least 22 homers the last eight seasons, including 40 in 2015. (AP)
The Nevada Athletic Commission gave Canelo Alvarez a reduced penalty for doping violations Wednesday that would let him return in time for a September rematch against Gennady Golovkin, whom he fought to a draw in 2017. Alvarez got a six-month suspension after being flagged for clenbuterol, which he blamed on contaminated meat. The standard ban is one year for first-time violators. His May 5 fight with Golovkin was called off because of the failed drug test, but the suspension is retroactive to February. Golovkin said Wednesday that he will fight Vanes Martirosyan on May 5.

JERRY BREWER | THE WASHINGTON POST
Chill or in denial? With an 0-2 deficit, Wizards stay blah The Wizards know they can come back. They know because they trailed Boston 2-0 just last year before returning home and pushing the Eastern Conference semifinals to seven games. They also know because they’re dangerously cool, a team limited by modest concern over flaws and patterns of lax behavior that would be intolerable for most others. Their audacity makes them capable of another rally, and belief is a powerful weapon. But the Wizards must be careful not to mistake it for denial. This predicament is different. This is not 2017. Washington is not the team it was a year ago. The Raptors are not the Celtics; Toronto is playing at a higher level. Unlike that second-round series last year, these first two losses haven’t been games that the Wizards controlled and should’ve won. The Wizards have a lot to overcome going into Game 3 at
Capital One Arena on Friday. They have yet to show the discipline to follow the scouting report or the trust to play defense together and rotate well. Kelly Oubre Jr. is leading the team in blown assignments. Bradley Beal — who scored just nine points with a plus-minus of negative-34 in Game 2 on Tuesday — looks worn down. John Wall has had great moments but still isn’t sharp. Otto Porter Jr. has a nagging hip injury and disappears for long stretches. Marcin Gortat is averaging six points and 4.5 rebounds in a total of 41 minutes against Toronto. Ian Mahinmi’s usefulness as the backup center is a game-to-game mystery. Tomas Satoransky is lost. And despite how well Ty Lawson played in Game 2, scoring 14 points with eight assists in his Wizards debut, his late addition to the roster reeks of desperation and speaks to the Wizards’ inability to find a reliable backup point guard. Oh, one more thing: the Wizards remain skittish in the
fourth quarter. Other than that, they should feel like the favorite. You would have thought that, after allowing 76 points and 11 3-pointers to Toronto in the first half of Game 2, the Wizards would react with anger and embarrassment over a performance that saw them fall behind by 23 early. Instead, they seemed more relieved and encouraged that they cut the lead to five in the fourth quarter of a 130-119 loss. Afterward, the players were disappointed, but they didn’t seem hurt. Teams aim to stay composed early in a best-ofseven series, but the Wizards were still surprisingly mellow after a humiliating first half. To come back in this series, the Wizards must play better than they have all year, and the Raptors must slip a little. It’s a difficult task, especially if Toronto’s confidence grows. The Wizards shouldn’t expect the Raptors to relax. Washington has to focus better and play with urgency. The team shouldn’t be in denial about the challenge of fixing itself and solving Toronto. “We were in that same situation almost a year ago against Boston,” Beal said. No, it’s not the same. This one is far more daunting. Follow Jerry Brewer on Twitter @JerryBrewer

weekendpass My D.C. dream day
Whole groups of people stop and laugh at her. I love watching people get joy watching her.
DAKOTA FINE
Then probably just taking a walk down to Dupont Circle, which is where the law firm I used to work at is. I just have so many memories of that area and people I’ve worked with. That’s where the first Yoga District studio went, so for me that’s home base. Now there’s a yoga studio on every corner. My sister didn’t want me to walk alone [in Dupont] when I was in my teens. Now it’s like you could eat off the sidewalk. I’d probably have lunch at Teaism. I love their soups, and I love their bento boxes with pickled plum.
Jasmine Chehrazi YOGI
Jasmine Chehrazi has used yoga to guide her from her postcollege days at a Dupont Circle law firm to founding and running Yoga District, her chain of seven studios across the city, and now to Europe (first Amsterdam, now Zurich, maybe London next), where her husband’s job has brought their family. D.C., she says, will always be home, and she remains active with Yoga District, organizing training for teachers, writing newsletters and heading the board of Yoga Activist, a nonprofit dedicated to spreading yoga to diverse communities. “What I’ve tried to do with Yoga District and Yoga Activist is answer, ‘What can I do to further peace?’ ” says Chehrazi, 38. “I can’t be a politician; my record is a little bit too wild for that. But I can be a yogi.” Chehrazi has a trip to D.C. scheduled for next month. If she gets her way, this is how it might go. The first thing that comes to mind is waking up, doing some kind of morning meditation and [yoga] practice. There’s a framework that’s based on the dharma yoga tradition. I would work through whatever is leftover in my mind from the previous day. It’s like brushing your teeth — you just gotta do it.
I’d probably walk our little dog with our son and my partner to Malcolm X Park in the morning. I like to risk getting a dog ticket by letting my dog play off-leash. My dog, Paloma, is some kind of dachshund mix, and when she plays fetch she goes kind of wild and tries to find the biggest stick possible, even though she’s 15 pounds.
I was thinking about just visiting with friends. My friend Angela has a vegan food blog called the Veracious Vegan and she’s a skydiver and she was a race car driver. I’d probably just walk to her place near the 14th Street yoga studio. I could imagine meeting up with a couple of my girlfriends and just being together. That’s something D.C. needs more of. Less “What am I going to do?” and more “How can I just be?” I would like it if there was some sort of potluck or community gathering for peace in front of the White House. Part protest, part community gathering. Just something simple like that would be lovely. I know you need a permit, but since this is my perfect day, that law would not exist anymore. I’d love for it to be the kind of thing where my son could come, families, everybody could come together. My friend Sasha [Lord], she does booking at Comet Ping Pong. She has these amazing shows, and they’re kind of blow-your-mind. She finds bands that are part performance art, part incredible music. And there’s pizza! They have good vegan pizza — I can’t say no to that. (AS TOLD TO LORI McCUE)

weekendpass and maligned animals. In her 2012 National Geographic television series “Freaks and Creeps,” she tried to rehabilitate the reputations of ugly and reviled creatures — animals like vultures, which, in addition to their love of dead things, defecate on their own legs to cool off. In her new book, “The Truth About Animals: Stoned Sloths, Lovelorn Hippos, and Other Tales From the Wild Side of Wildlife,” which she’ll discuss Saturday at Politics and Prose, Cooke debunks myths — current and ancient — about cute and charismatic critters. “The truth about animals is even more extraordinary than even the craziest things that we have dreamt up about them,” she says. Drawing from her book, we asked Cooke to explain what’s wrong with certain animal memes — three from our modern-day internet, and two slightly older examples.

Yes, they move slowly, but sloths are not lazy losers, Cooke says. “Their slow digestive system actually allows them to digest leaves that would be poisonous if broken down more quickly,” she says. This, along with its chill nature, has allowed the sloth to become one of the most successful jungle mammals, Cooke says. They don’t need many calories to survive, and their ability to stay still for long periods of time helps them hide and avoid predators. “They also have a habit of snoozing in the nooks of tree branches, so they look like termite mounds.” Adding to the camouflage: Their fur is covered in fungi and algae, giving it a greenish hue.
Every fall, newspapers run stories of drunken moose rampages, where a moose eats fermented apples and then gets stuck in a tree or terrorizes townspeople. The stories are funny, but not accurate, Cooke says. “The moose is a big mammal and they could not consume enough apples to have enough alcohol in their system to get drunk,” she says. We may be reacting to their droopy-looking muzzles and weird joints, which rotate outward and make them look unsteady, Cooke says. If a moose does act funny after eating fermented apples, it may be suffering from acidosis, a severe stomachache brought on by too much sugar-rich food.
If a chimpanzee smiles at you, watch out! “The chimpanzee grin actually is a nervous response. It’s not a sign of happiness — it’s actually a sign of anxiety,” Cooke says. Since anxiety can turn to aggression, you’ll want to avoid showing your teeth to chimps as well, she adds. This is just one example of the elaborate system of gestures that chimps have developed to communicate complex ideas to one another without uttering a word. While the smile doesn’t mean what you think, a handshake does: “A handshake between chimps is a seal of approval, just as it would be for businessmen closing a deal,” Cooke says.
From the Middle Ages to as recently as the 18th century, people believed ostriches could digest absolutely anything, Cooke says. “In medieval natural history books, ostriches would be depicted quite often with a key coming out of their mouth,” she says. “Over the centuries, ostriches were forced in the name of science and curiosity to drink a whole glass of iron filings and eat everything from nails to scissors.” Turns out the large birds cannot digest these sundry objects. The misunderstanding, Cooke says, stems from the fact that ostriches do appear to swallow rocks on occasion. The stones land in the toothless animals’ gizzards and help break down fibrous plants.
Hippos secrete a clear fluid that turns pink or red in the sun, and many observers have mistaken it for blood. Ancient Roman naturalist Pliny the Elder, for example, believed that hippos invented bloodletting, a common medical practice in his day for all kinds of ailments. “He thought hippos, when they became overweight, would go down to the riverbanks and find a sharp stone to lean on to pierce their skin,” Cooke says. In reality, hippos’ secretions act as a sunscreen, have antibiotic properties and may even repel insects, she says. “It sounds crazy, but the fact is that hippos are their own pharmacists, just not in the way the ancient Romans thought.”

weekendpass CHACHI RAMIREZ (LEGENDARY)
The makers of “Carne y Arena” digitally re-created real-life migrants, such as Selena, right, from Guatemala, to appear in the virtual reality experience.
Feel it for yourself The Oscar-winning ‘Carne y Arena’ makes the immigrant experience all too real ETC … A woman loaded down with shopping bags pauses in front of an unfamiliar building on Benning Road NE. “This used to be a church,” she says, before surmising that the building, which sports a stylishly recycled facade of boards and corrugated metal, must be a restaurant now. It’s not a bad guess. For one thing, the sign on the building says “Carne y Arena” — a phrase that loosely translates to “Flesh and Sand” but bears a passing resemblance to “carne asada,” or grilled steak. Plus, a new
restaurant on the growing H Street corridor is more likely than what “Carne y Arena” actually is — a virtual reality “film” by Oscar-winning Mexican director Alejandro G. Inarritu (“The Revenant”) that immerses viewers in a nightmare familiar to the millions of people who have tried illegally crossing the border from Mexico into the United States. D.C. isn’t the first city to host “Carne y Arena,” but it is the first place where tickets are totally free, says Kristin Guiter, the installation’s local spokesperson. (Batches of tickets are released
online every two weeks.) Before its arrival in D.C., Inarritu’s film won a special Oscar — the first for virtual reality — and played sold-out exhibitions in Milan, Mexico City and Los Angeles. Since opening in D.C. in March, the installation has drawn a steady stream of politicians, immigration activists and ordinary folks, Guiter says. You’re totally alone throughout the experience, and everyone reacts differently, especially at the point where border guards seemingly point guns right at you, she says.
Can I handle it? Expect “Carne y Arena” to be as physical an experience as it is a psychic one. Part of stepping into the migrants’ world is being exposed to the same elements, including rocky ground, ambient sounds and cold — nothing most of us can’t handle. But organizers of the event warn that “Carne y Arena” is not for those with “claustrophobia, heart conditions, back conditions, a history of seizures, epilepsy, and/or sensitivity to flashing lights.” On the way in, you’ll be asked to sign a waiver. (THE WASHINGTON POST)
“Some people flat-out hit the ground,” she says. “Other people sort of stand back and watch.” In the post-experience gathering area, Arlington resident Jessica Hoover, 33, points to scuff marks on her pants. When the border guards told her to get down, she did exactly that. “I was scared,” she says. “It’s intense. You know, you hear about people crossing the border and trying to come to America to make a better life, but until you actually see it and feel it and feel the sand underneath your feet, you don’t realize what some of

these people go through.” Inarritu and his collaborators designed the experience, which visitors go through one at a time, to be hyper-realistic. Before putting on the virtual reality headset, you sit in a cold, featureless room surrounded by objects actually left behind in the desert: toddlers’ Crocs, improvised canteens, slippers made of rag and twine. At this step, you put your shoes and other belongings in a locker, and then sit on a bench and wait. And wait a little longer. This part of the experience mimics the holding cells colloquially known as las hieleras, or “the freezers,” where U.S. Border Patrol agents detain captured migrants for two days on average as they await their fates — an ordeal that’s even worse than the harrowing border crossing, some say. Without warning, an alarm

blares, red lights flash and you’re off to the next room, where you step onto coarse sand and don a backpack, headphones and Oculus Rift goggles. As you peer into the VR goggles, you see nothing at first, and then you’re in a desert at dawn, surrounded by fellow migrants, bent and dusty. Suddenly, you’re surrounded by armed men and dogs, and you must decide what to do, where to look. The virtual reality portion of the experience lasts only 6½ minutes, but it feels much longer, says Luis Morales, 43, also visiting from Arlington. “I’d like to say it was cool, but it’s actually kind of sad and depressing,” he says. Morales was especially moved by the room viewers enter after the VR portion, where you can read about the people in the film. They’re actual migrants who made the desert crossing themselves and drew on their own experiences during filming. “If you read the guest book at the end, people are writing, ‘All Americans need to experience this,’ and I totally agree,” Morales says. Over complimentary tea and cookies, Morales and Hoover discover that they saw very different things in their VR goggles. About halfway through the film, Hoover found herself in the middle of a dream sequence, a moment of quiet where a window opens up into a migration disaster from the other side of the world. At that point in his experience, Morales was focused on a family of migrants sitting together at a long table, an apparition of the simple life they long for in America. Neither of the Arlington residents tried entering the body of one of the migrants, which would have given them a surgeon’s-eye view of a human heart beating frantically. “I missed that,” Morales said. “I have to come back and see it again!” SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS) 1611 Benning Road NE; 9 a.m.9 p.m. daily through Aug. 31, free but tickets are required (the next block will be available May 1 at carneyarenadc.com).

Do a lot of people think healthy food can’t also taste good? “Health” is kind of a bad word to many; there’s quite a negative connotation when it comes to flavor. I try to avoid overuse of the word “healthy” for that exact reason. The reality is a lot of unhealthy foods hit our taste buds with a lot of energy. But over the long term, there’s actually not a ton of flavor in most unhealthy foods.
Sam Kass holds one of the foods he wishes we’d all eat more often.

In your book you recommend that instead of focusing on the “right” choices, people should think about just making “better” choices. Why is that an approach you suggest? I think people have been sort of bombarded with these idyllic versions of what the “right” way to eat is versus the “wrong” way. And that’s just not realistic. Most people are trying to eat better, and the vast majority of people are struggling to do that. And even people who have good diets love some ice cream or a cookie here and again. We need to value progress much more than perfection.

Q+A | SAM KASS
He’ll clean up your plate Think getting dinner on the table every night is a lot of pressure? Try making the evening meal for the first family of the United States, as Sam Kass did when he was a chef at the White House during the Obama administration. He also served as senior adviser for nutrition policy and as executive director of Let’s Move!, the public health campaign led by Michelle Obama that focused on reducing childhood obesity. During his time in those roles, Kass worked to make school lunches more nutritious and ensure that as many people as possible have access to healthy, affordable food. Now he continues the conversation about making healthier choices through his strategy firm Trove and in his new cookbook, “Eat a Little Better: Great Flavor, Good Health, Better World.” Kass will talk about the book at Sixth & I on Tuesday, in conversation with The Washington Post’s Joe Yonan. BETH LUBERECKI (FOR EXPRESS)
Are people afraid that making better choices will be difficult or time-consuming? It feels daunting and really hard to do. And I think part of what the book sets out to do is focus not so much on the what but the how, to actually give people tools to really do it. We just keep telling people you’re supposed to do this, but they’re not given strategies on how to accomplish it. This book sets out to simplify all the noise and give some basic tactics that people can use to make this process easier. How did your time in the White House inform the things you talk about in the book? The White House really taught me that instead of starting with what you think the perfect world looks like, you need to start with what people’s realities look like and work from there. And to keep things incredibly simple if you want to get results. But at the same time, I also saw the power of everyday people
to change the country and the world, and how their choices and actions can have a profound impact. What are some of the biggest changes people should make when it comes to their food choices? First, look at their own homes and kitchens and try to set themselves up for success. People eat what they see. If you work hard to surround yourself with mostly healthy foods and the ones that are in plain sight are good for you, you’re going to see your family eating much healthier. I think we need to eat less meat, particularly red meat, and I say that as a steak lover. And then just trying to cook a little more is the other single biggest thing you can do, even if it’s just one more night a week. What’s an ingredient more people need to try? I think beans are wildly underutilized. They’re so good for you, great protein and fiber, and so delicious. You can do all kinds of things with them, they’re a great complement for just about any meal, and they’re so cheap. They do take a while to cook, but just soak them overnight or cook them on weekends … and then use them over the course of the week. If everyone makes small changes, can that add up to big benefits when it comes to everything from public health to our food supply? As we continue to demand better quality, more nutrient-dense, and more sustainable food, we’re going to see the market, which is already reacting, continue to try to make more and more changes in that direction. This is a big opportunity to incentivize the food system to serve up better [food] and in doing so reduce our impact on the environment, which is just going to be crucial if we want to continue to grow healthy, nutritious food for generations to come.

‘Stagecoach’ The first Western is technically 1903’s “The Great Train Robbery,” but 1939’s “Stagecoach” is the one that established the genre as an art form. It was the first time John Wayne had a leading role in a John Ford picture and the first time Ford used the Monument Valley location he’d make famous. It’s the story of a bunch of very different people on a (wait for it) stagecoach. They encounter many obstacles, including really hackneyed, offensive depictions of American Indians. On Saturday, the classic will be introduced by Nancy Schoenberger, author of “Wayne and Ford: The Films, the Friendship and the Forging of an American Hero”; on Wednesday, a Montgomery College film professor will introduce the film — but there won’t be a test.

Smokepurpp Smokepurpp is a proponent of so-called SoundCloud rap (a genre that began on that audio distribution platform), mixing skeletal beats, speaker- (and eardrum-) rupturing bass, and repetitive lyrics stripped of poetry and poignancy. The repetition is key, but the effect is less hypnotic and — like one of his favorite topics — more narcotic. The Fillmore, 8656 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; Tue., 8 p.m., $25.

FEEL GOOD ABOUT THE FUTURE 0F THE HUMAN RACE. It’s 5:30 a.m. and the sun hasn’t quite peeked through the morning sky. Volunteers gather to start the day with a two-mile run around East Baltimore. Mingled in the group of runners are Baltimore City residents whose lives have been ravaged by homelessness and hardship. Nevertheless, they are making a comeback and taking strides, one run at a time, to get back on their feet. Bloomberg School alumna Jaclyn Range, MPH ’14, leads the local chapter of Back on My Feet, an organization that helps Baltimore City residents who are homeless find the confidence and self-esteem they need to pursue education and find employment through the power and discipline of running. At the Bloomberg School, students like Jaclyn put research, passion and knowledge into action to positively influence lives in Baltimore and cities around the globe. Won’t you join us?
Join us in protecting health, saving lives—millions at a time.

STX FILMS
Ethan (Rory Scovel) and Renee (Amy Schumer) have some issues to deal with in “I Feel Pretty.”
Amy Schumer looked inside for ‘I Feel Pretty’ Her new comedy deals with insecurity and one woman’s awakening FILM The trailer for “I Feel Pretty” wasn’t met with open arms back in February. Everyone agreed it made the movie look like it was ridiculing a woman who was confident in her looks when, ha-haha, she’s totally average-looking. “There was a backlash,” says Amy Schumer, who stars as Renee, a woman who suffers a head injury and wakes up thinking she’s the most beautiful woman on the planet. “It was like, ‘What is this? Is this body-shaming?’ ” Turns out “I Feel Pretty,” which opens on Friday, isn’t really about what’s on the outside. “It’s not about some homely troll who gets pretty,” says Schumer, most recently seen in last year’s “Snatched” and “Thank You for Your Service.” “It’s about someone who struggles with self-esteem, and then all of her dreams come true.
[Beauty is] what was important to her. Not all women — this is a story about one woman. [But] having problems with confidence and feeling invisible is pretty universal.” Renee spends her workdays unseen in an off-site, dimly lit basement of an office, doing a nondescript job that somehow involves web traffic for a highend cosmetics company led by the effortlessly stunning Avery LeClaire (Michelle Williams, hilariously speaking in a barely heard, breathy squeak). Renee’s invisibility continues outside of her work life, as she can’t get up the courage to wriggle into a crowded bar to order a drink and can’t settle on a profile picture for a dating app — so she never chooses one. It takes all of her courage to walk into a SoulCycle class that’s populated with the rock-hard bodies one associates with SoulCycle classes. “I Feel Pretty” emphasizes that it’s not Renee’s looks that have been holding her back, it’s her insecurity. Renee may fight

it, first with Spanx and then with delusions of her own physical perfection, but she’s just like the billions of other people who have something internal holding them back. “It’s not only women,” says Rory Scovel, who plays Ethan, Renee’s post-imaginary-makeover boyfriend. Ethan gets made fun of at work and he’s slightly ashamed of his love of Zumba. “He’s just having this lack of confidence. You see that what I learn from Renee is ‘maybe that’s just who I am.’ And if I do Zumba, then f--- it, I do Zumba.” Whether someone’s insecurity comes from Zumba or from a belly roll is unimportant, Schumer says. “I learned a couple of years ago that I don’t want to be reaching for some other version of myself,” she says. “Why can’t we feel good today, right now, and not have it be that you’re waiting for your life to start until you get to this other version? Appreciate your package today.”
“This is my book that I’m writing in real time. No publisher or publicist will tell me what to put where or how many pages to write. This is not a financial opportunity this is an innate need to be expressive.” KANYE WEST, revealing during a tweetstorm Wednesday that he is writing his previously announced philosophy book, “Break the Simulation,” via posts on Twitter. The rapper, who recently returned to the social media platform after an 11-month hiatus, added, “I will work on this ‘book’ when I feel it.”

TELEVISION
‘Scandal’ exits the airwaves — not the zeitgeist ABC’s “Scandal” wraps its seven-season run with the show’s series finale, airing at 10 p.m. today. Shonda Rhimes’ political melodrama — starring Kerry Washington as a professional problem solver in the nation’s capital — will leave behind a number of enduring contributions to pop culture. ALICIA RANCILIO (AP) The wardrobe With monochromatic white coats and statement pieces like a great bag, leather gloves and a white hat, Washington’s Olivia Pope brought some fierce style to Capitol Hill.
‘Scandal’-talk The dialogue on “Scandal,” wasn’t just fast — it spawned catchphrases that will long be remembered by fans. “It’s handled” is probably the most famous, because there never seemed to be a job too tough for Pope to tackle.
Tweeting along Sure, it’s commonplace now for TV actors to live-tweet when their show is airing, but the “Scandal” cast members were early adopters of the trend. It was so popular, ABC made sure to book Washington on a flight with Wi-Fi so she could tweet at 20,000 feet during the Season 3 premiere in 2013.

Pink and her children, 15-month-old Jameson Moon and 6-year-old Willow Sage, grace the cover of People magazine’s “Beautiful Issue,” revealed Wednesday. In the story, Pink reflects on parenting. “I always tell Willow, ‘I’m going to teach you the rules so that you’ll know how and when to break them,’ ” she says. People’s editor-in-chief Jess Cagle says the magazine has rebranded its “Most Beautiful” issue as “The Beautiful Issue” to “make clear the issue is not a beauty contest.” Gal Gadot, Lin-Manuel Miranda and Serena Williams are among those featured.
