Obama Heralds Team Overhaul New national security reshuffle will combat U.S., world demands MWi^_d]jed Seeking to tame wars overseas and budget deficits at home, President Obama announced a major remake of his national security team Thursday aimed at ensuring leadership continuity during a perilous time. His own re-election approaching, Obama turned to a cast of familiar and respected officials for the most sweeping reworking of his national security team since the opening weeks of his presidency. He nominated CIA Director Leon Panetta to replace Defense Secretary Robert Gates when Gates makes his long-planned retirement this summer, and he proposed sending Iraq and Afghanistan war commander Gen. David Petraeus to head the CIA. The changes, which require Senate approval, come as the Obama administration confronts numer-

making politically risky cuts to the Pentagon budget. “I will look to them and my entire national security team for

their counsel, continuity and unity of effort that this moment in history demands,” Obama said in the White House East Room with Gates, Panetta, Petraeus and other top officials by his side.

WikiLeaks Figure Passes Evaluation Manning to live with inmates rather than by himself as before <ehj B[Wl[dmehj^" AWd$ WikiLeaks suspect Army Pfc. Bradley Manning has passed the lengthy physical and psychiatric evaluation given to new inmates at the Kansas military prison to which he was recently moved and will begin living with other medium-security inmates who are also awaiting trial, the prison commander said Thursday.

Monster of a Storm A behemoth tornado marches through Limestone County, south of Athens, Ala., on Wednesday. GARY COSBY JR./THE DECATUR DAILY/AP

Lethal supercells shred entire towns from Ala. to Va., stunning residents

(-/!

The combined death toll as of Thursday night in six states due to the storms that plowed through the South on Wednesday and into Thursday with lethal force.

Firefighters searched one splintered pile after another for survivors Thursday, combing the remains of houses and neighborhoods pulverized by the nation’s deadliest tornado outbreak in almost four decades. At least 279 people were killed across six states — more than two-thirds of them in Alabama, where large cities bore the half-milewide scars the twisters left behind. The death toll from Wednesday’s storms seems out of a bygone era, before Doppler radar and pinpoint satellite forecasts were around. Residents were told the tornadoes were coming up to 24 minutes ahead of time, but they were just too wide, too powerful and too locked onto populated areas to avoid a horrifying body count. “These were the most intense supercell thunderstorms that I think anybody who was out there forecasting has ever seen,” said meteorologist Greg Carbin at the National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla. The storms seemed to hug the highways as they barreled along, obliterating neighborhoods and towns from

Western and southern Virginia weren’t so lucky. Gov. Robert McDonnell declared a state of emergency after four people were killed and more than 50 were injured by severe weather across the state. Most of the fatalities and injuries stemmed from an apparent tornado in Washington County, officials said. Closer to D.C., a funnel cloud formed over Point of Rocks in Frederick County shortly before 7 a.m. Thursday, according to the National Weather Service, but there were no reports of tornadoes touching down.

Tuscaloosa, Ala., to Bristol, Va. “It happened so fast it was unbelievable,” said Jerry Stewart, 63, who was picking through the remains of his son’s home in Pleasant Grove, a suburb of Birmingham. Some of the worst damage was in Tuscaloosa, a city of more than 83,000 that is home to the University of Alabama, where an astonishingly thick tornado leveled neighborhoods. That twister and others Wednesday were several times more severe than a typical tornado, which is hundreds of yards wide, has winds around 100 mph and stays on the ground for a few miles, said meteorologist Harold Brooks. “There’s a pretty good chance some of these were a mile wide, on the ground for tens of miles and had wind speeds over 200 mph,” he said, noting that the tornado that struck Tuscaloosa could be an EF5, the strongest category. President Obama said he would travel to Alabama on Friday to see the damage and meet with Gov. Robert Bentley and affected families. The governors of Mississippi and Georgia also issued emergency declarations in their states. “We can’t control when or where a terrible storm may strike, but we can control how we respond to it,” Obama said. “And I want every American who has been affected by this disaster to know that the federal government will do everything we can to help you recover, and we will stand with you as you rebuild.” (AP)

Just over a month ago, Yonathan Elias boarded a Red Line train at Silver Spring, realized he was the only passenger on his car and used his cell phone to record an impromptu video of himself gleefully shouting, “Nobody is in the Metro!” while bounding down the aisle, jumping on the seats and rolling along the floor. Thanks to Elias’ manic grin and his uncanny ability to channel Pee-wee Herman’s “Aaaah!” the clip went viral on YouTube — it’s at 432,127 views and counting. And that doesn’t include another 20,000 hits for the version that a British music producer Auto-Tuned like crazy to create a dance remix that’s now available for purchase

In fact, Elias says it was so strange to look around and see no one else on the train that at first he worried something was wrong. “This had never happened to me before,” he says. “That’s why I was tripping out. It was spooky.” Once he realized the train was just fine, though, he giddily embraced an opportunity few of us are likely to get — the chance to go completely nuts on the Metro without worrying about other people. Luckily for us, he chose to take us along for the ride.

Gray also said D.C. Police Chief Cathy L. Lanier plans to meet with zoo police officials to discuss the stabbing and future coordination. About 30,000 people visited the zoo Monday, many for the annual African American Family Day. The large crowds caused zoo officials to close the gates temporarily at one point. There was another violent incident at the zoo during African American Family Day in 2000. A teenager shot and wounded seven people at the zoo’s main entrance during a dispute with teens from another neighborhood. (THE WASHINGTON POST )

J^[ 9Wf_jWbi By the end of the second round of the NHL playoffs, Capitals fans may have a new rival team to circle on their “must see” calendars — and, for once, it’s not a team from Pennsylvania. The new — or soon-to-be — object of fan hatred comes from Tampa Bay, where the newly invigorated Lightning is coming off a dramatic first-round comeback.

7 P.M. | Versus Friday ROUND 2

On Wednesday, Tampa Bay beat the Pittsburgh Penguins in seven games to earn a trip to the second round for the first time since 2004. Now the Bolts will be looking to knock off the Capitals, a team they’ve struggled against in recent years, starting with Friday’s Game 1. “They’re paying well this year and have a lot of new faces and new things in the organization that turned it around,” forward Jason Chimera said. “It’s been a good battle all year, and it’s going to be another one of those.” After a successful Stanley Cup run in 2004, the lockout nearly dismantled the Lightning and put it on the path to rebuilding. As the Capitals rose up in the Eastern Conference ranks, Tampa Bay continued to linger at the bottom of the standings.

ÇM[ ZedÊj mWdj je X[ \h_[dZbo W]W_dij [WY^ ej^[h1 _j i^ekbZ ][j k]bo ekj j^[h[$È — ERIC FEHR, A CAPITALS WINGER, WHO IS LOOKING FORWARD TO A PHYSICAL SERIES AGAINST SOUTHEAST DIVISION RIVAL TAMPA BAY.

Since the lockout, Washington has gone 26-11-5 against Tampa Bay, and the two franchises have had vastly different fortunes. In the 2008-09 season, the Capitals won all six games against the Lightning. But those days are over. After earning 103 points this regular season and pushing the Caps for the Southeast Division title, the Bolts are back.

It’s all thanks to an infusion of order created by General Manager Steve Yzerman and first-year head coach Guy Boucher. Despite the improvements, the Capitals continued to hold off the Bolts, but the iron grip is slipping. Washington went 4-2 against the Lighting this season and in three of the wins, scored five or more goals. The last time the two teams met in the playoffs, in 2003, Tampa won after falling behind 2-0, but that was a different era. Now with the Capitals’ first postseason meeting since the lockout, head coach Bruce Boudreau said the rivalry is ready to boil. “It got pretty good there at the end, the rivalry,” Boudreau said. “The last four games we had against them were pretty serious, but this takes it another step.” REED S.

H;FEHJ J^[ 9Wf_jWbi In 2003, it was “Olie the Goalie” versus the Tampa Bay Lightning. This year, it’s “Rolie the Goalie” versus the Caps. While Olaf Kolzig’s bid to defeat the Bolts in 2003 ended in disappointment, winger Eric Fehr said he’s spent the past five off days personally scouting Tampa’s 41-yearold veteran netminder, Dwayne Roloson, from his couch. “We don’t have a lot of time to look over their systems,” he said. “When I’m watching a team [on television] we could potentially play, I look for a few things, but mostly on the goalies.” Roloson, who was acquired from the New York Islanders in a mid-season trade, has created a foundation for the Lightning. His play helped

the team step up in the second half of the season, and Lightning coach Guy Boucher stuck with the veteran through the team’s seven-game series with Pittsburgh. Roloson’s strong first round included a shutout in Game 7 versus Pittsburgh, and the outcome of their series with the Caps may rest in the 41-year-old’s ability to outduel a 22-year-old in the other net. “It’s going to be important for us to get traffic in front of him,” Fehr said. “The more we can get him moving and get him thinking, the better off we’ll be.” So how do the Capitals, who just defeated a world-class goalie in Henrik Lundqvist, view the aging veteran who’s heating up in the postseason? “He’s known as a guy who battles real hard,” Fehr said. “He’s kind of old school in that if you go in his crease, he’s going to punch you or hack at you. He’s a bit of a different goalie than what we’ve seen, but he gets the job done.” REED S. ALBERS

Tampa Bay’s young gun didn’t exactly dazzle in his first playoff series against the Penguins, but now that he has his postseason legs, look for the 21-year-old to be more comfortable on the ice. He’s an offensive talent who can take over a game, and while the New York Rangers had few goal-scoring superstars for the Caps to deal with, Stamkos is one among many on the Lightning.

The postseason points leader has brutalized the Caps in the playoffs before. In the 2003 meeting of the two clubs, St. Louis sparked the Bolts, helping erase a 2-0 series deficit with five goals — including the series-clinching goal in Game 6. St. Louis played a similar role in dumping the Penguins in Round 1 and can be expected to try for an encore against the Caps.

Just when the Capitals thought they’d gotten over Sean Avery’s antics, another pest appears in Steve Downie. The difference between Downie and the New York Rangers’ Avery: Downie has been a major contributor to the Bolts’ offense this postseason, and his sandpaper-like game is exactly what Tampa needs to disrupt the Capitals’ game plan.

Nats’ Ramos Learns His Trade Well Young catcher earns praise, playing time since last year’s deal J^[ DWj_edWbi

8[WhZ 8Wjjb[

KATHY WILLENS/AP

When the trade went down last year, the reality of the situation wasn’t especially appealing to Jim Riggleman. As the manager heard it, the organization had just dealt away his all-star closer in return for a minorleague catcher, a well-regarded guy but nevertheless a guy hitting .241 for Minnesota’s Class AAA club in Rochester, N.Y. Matt Capps had a 2.74 ERA and 26 saves, but a closer is a luxury for a last-place team. And, of course, trade bait. Wilson Ramos could hit .241 or .341 or .441 in the Minnesota organization. For a catcher, there’s not much chance of beating out Joe Mauer on the big-league squad. “I didn’t really know what to expect, because I’d heard good things about [Ramos], but his Triple-A numbers the most recent time

were a little bit off of the course that he had been on,” Riggleman said. “You don’t really know how to take that. Was he a little discouraged because he was floundering around ... and Joe Mauer is gonna be there forever? Who knows?” Ramos cracked the Nationals’ roster in September, and by the end of spring training in March,

he’d forced Riggleman into a fairly uncomfortable position. Riggleman called 38-year-old Ivan Rodriguez into his office and explained to one of the best catchers the game has ever seen that he’d be splitting time with a rookie. By the All-Star break, he warned Rodriguez, the youngster would be getting the major-

With the San Francisco Giants visiting the Nats, the stage is set for one of the most intense showdowns of the season: Jayson Werth’s beard versus Brian Wilson’s beard. Werth’s was the original, winning the World Series in 2008 when it was a young soul patch. Even trimmed to a goatee, it has a Facebook fan page and Twitter feed. Yet Wilson’s voluminous facial hair assumed the more prominent role in the zeitgeist after the 2010 World Series. It, too, has a Facebook page and has been on “The Tonight Show.” Wilson even claims the beard is sweeter than he purest honey in a video game commercial. D.T.

ity of the playing time. The veteran accepted the new reality, and he embraced the rookie, who has in turn outplayed the veteran so severely in April that Riggleman has begun to accelerate the transition. Through Wednesday, Ramos was hitting .375 to Rodriguez’s .194, and Ramos’ power had begun to show, highlighted by a twohome run night on Tuesday. “It was just a great acquisition, a great trade for both clubs. They got a great guy in Matt Capps ... and we got a catcher who could be the future here.” DEREK TURNER

United Sees Positives in Losses NFL Is Set to Reopen 2 players fighting early slumps shine as squad struggles The silver linings coming out of D.C. United’s last two matches — a 4-0 league loss to rival New York last Thursday and a 3-2 U.S. Open Cup qualifying loss to New England on Tuesday — are the emergence of Branko Boskovic and the re-emergence of Andy Najar. Boskovic, the team’s highestpaid player, has struggled to reach his top form. But against New York, Boskovic was influential as a substitute, hitting the post and forcing a tremendous save on United’s best chances of the night. Against New

Andy Najar showed signs of his rookie year self in D.C.’s 3-2 defeat on Tuesday.

England, the Montenegrin international midfielder started and was again denied early by the post and the goalkeeper before scoring two goals in leading D.C. to the brink of a comeback from a 3-0 deficit.

He was forced out of the game late with a left leg injury, but an MRI came back negative, and he’s expected to be ready for United’s next challenge: the Houston Dynamo in a nationally televised game on Friday. Najar, meanwhile, the reigning MLS rookie of the year, has been mysteriously stapled to the bench for the better part of the season. But on Tuesday, he displayed his trademark dribbling skills and blazing speed down the flanks — making a positive impact on coach Ben Olsen. “Tonight I saw Andy Najar back, and, believe me, I’m happier than you guys are to see him back, because I love the kid,” Olsen said Tuesday. “He took a big step forward to getting back into MLS games.” AVI CREDITOR

For Business on Friday Fhe <eejXWbb The NFL has told its teams and players to get back to football, at least for now. Told twice in three days by a federal judge that its 45-day lockout was illegal, the league assured teams and players they could resume some of the normal day-to-day football operations beginning Friday, including voluntary workouts at team facilities, meetings with coaches and going over playbooks. The league also promised to distribute detailed procedures for signing free agents, making trades and other roster moves.

Anyone familiar with the stigma of crime and blight that has haunted the neighborhood below might see the meditative moves as evidence of an area in flux. Like yogis who look to deeper stretches as signs of improvement, Anacostia has seen a recent spate of benchmarks that have community members and real estate developers heralding it as an area on the rise. Located a mere 10-minute drive across the Anacostia River from Capitol Hill, the area might just be D.C.’s next up-andcoming hood. Harbingers of growth include the opening earlier this year of the neighborhood’s first full-service restaurant in years, Uniontown Bar and Grill; its first coffee shop, Big Chair Coffee & Grill, in 2010; and a burgeoning art scene that includes Honfleur Gallery and the Gallery at Vivid Solutions, which opened over the course of the past four years.

M^[d _j Yec[i je Z[YehWj_d]" what makes some men swoon (a beat-up leather recliner, a sweet shot-glass collection) would cause some women to run for their scented candles and floral throw pillows. So, if the two sexes can’t agree on the purpose of potpourri or the importance of a pool table, how should they be expected to adhere to the same design do’s and don’ts? Two new books, “The Hip Girl’s Guide to Homemaking” ($20, Harper Design) by Kate Payne and “The Man Cave Book” ($15, Harper) by Mike Yost and Jeff Wilser, explore this gender disparity, and offer up feminine and masculine takes on feathering your nest or tricking out your garage. We spoke with Payne and Wilser about everything from bargains to beer. What we learned probably won’t lead to any kind of decor détente. But it might help you understand why those action figures or vintage teacups mean so much to your better half. BETH LUBERECKI

@[\\ M_bi[h" Ye#Wkj^eh e\ ÇJ^[ CWd 9Wl[ 8eeaÈ Why do men need man caves?

The rest of the house is generally the woman’s purview. A man cave is the one safe outlet for a guy to decorate without adult supervision or restraints and free from the shackles of taste. It’s a sneaky way for guys to release their own interior designer in a way that’s socially acceptable. It’s about expressing your individuality in a fun way by taking your hobbies and interests and doing something visually interesting with them.

AWj[ FWod[" Wkj^eh e\ ÇJ^[ >_f =_hbÊi =k_Z[ je >ec[cWa_d]È

Why do women need an updated approach to homemaking?

Based on my experience moving around a lot and trying to set up a house but not having a ton of money, it didn’t seem like there was anything very relevant to today, to how we live and how we’re setting up houses in the context of having a job and not being able to sit around all day and do all this cool stuff for your house. A lot of the things I was seeing were either focused on big projects or didn’t speak practically to beginners.

What’s a must for every man cave?

You have to have some form of reclining, relaxing chair or couch. Function should trump style. If you can’t be comfortable in your man cave, you’ve failed. Most guys will want to have some kind of easy way to get drinks, because God forbid you have to walk 20 feet into the kitchen to get a beer. And the best man caves are the ones that really

Can men use your advice?

Of course. I fought hard with my editor to make sure guys were mentioned in there. This is for everyone; having a house is really a guy and a girl thing. Why is it important to have a comfortable home that’s stylish?

Because it ’s really where we

rejuvenate and refresh ourselves. We all go home at the end of the day and try to get ready for the next day. If your house is a stressful place or it just doesn’t make you feel good, you’re not really doing yourself any good.

I think the biggest misconception is that it’s a place only for the men and no women, no family and no friends; that it’s just a place for the man to be a man. Almost categorically, all of the guys I talked to were all in on the joke; they get the irony of this. The man is the guy who creates it and decorates it and builds it, but, generally, it’s a place where friends are welcome and where women are welcome. It’s less of a bunker and more of a tongue-in-cheek nod to their hobbies and interests.

Got any decorating tips for gals — or guys — on a budget?

To really not look at your house as what it should be but as what it is. Go room by room and figure out some key things that would make you feel happier in that space and go buy that. Don’t go buy some $250 chair you’re never going to sit in because there’s supposed to be a chair in that corner.

— K ATE PAY NE , AUTHOR OF “THE HIP GIRL’S GUIDE TO HOMEMAKING”

Is it important for your decor and furnishings to match?

No. Get complementary things, of course. But you can get really nice things at a discount that aren’t a whole matching set. You can do it with towels, silverware, dishes, even furniture pieces. In our living room, we have kind of a wood situation going on; we have so many different colors of wood happening that at a certain point it’s almost endearing. In the future we’re going to address it, when we have more energy and resources, but now it’s about arranging it so it makes the most sense.

You encourage people to actually use their kitchens to cook. What’s wrong with using the room as a takeout menu storage center?

The classic rookie mistake is thinking you have to do it all at once. You can start pretty small. Think about what you’re interested in and start with that. Then you can kind of grow it from there. Start with a couple of key objects and then be on the lookout for other items.

To be able to feed yourself with food of your own making, I think of that as empowering. You end up saving yourself money and saving yourself time, and you know what’s going in your body. It’s this empowering feeling of making a few of the meals you consume and feeling good about them. And that eventually leads to hosting other people just by making more. Then, you can have a dinner party and have a space where people are enjoying themselves.

Do single guys need a man cave?

Cleaning is not high on many people’s lists of homemaking priorities. How can they make the job a little less dirty?

“Need” might be a strong word. But the weirder your interests, the less you want them cloaking the entire home, so it’s nice to have that in one cordoned-off room. What if you’re working on a budget?

It’s easy to do on the cheap with the help of things like Craigslist and eBay. The beauty of a man cave is that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure. You can find something someone is selling for five bucks and it could be the perfect crown jewel of your collection.

Clutter is something that’s recommended for a man cave. The one aesthetic principle is that you really want to just stuff the space with as much stuff as you possibly can. Clutter is key. Over time, if you can see any of the walls, you’ve done something wrong.

Absolutely no dusting, unless it’s for electronics. It would generally recommend cleaning at least once every two years. Cleaning is like the Olympics — it doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, you’re excited. When women get invited into the man cave, is there anything they should never do?

Never clean. They think they’re doing the men a favor, but it’s an indictment of their way of life. And it might not be a good time to talk about your relationship.

Take a targeted approach. You might never clean your house if you looked at it as, “I have to clean the whole house today.” Try to break it up. Say, “I’m going to clean the bathroom and mop the kitchen floor today.” We know about man caves. Is there such a thing as a woman cave?

There is such a thing as a woman cave, and it has a lot of closet or ga n i z i ng k i nd s of t h i ngs everywhere. There’s always an excess of organizational equipment and not necessarily a lot of organizing.

She should bring some beer and a big casserole, because it makes for good leftovers. The man in the cave will be very appreciative.

Z_]i What do you hope people learn from “Interior Visions”?

?dje ?dj[hdWj_edWb J[hh_jeho :[Yeh In the 20 years since Mona Hajj opened her own firm in Baltimore, she has designed the interiors of the Embassy of Luxembourg in the District and a Maryland home by architect John Russell Pope (whose projects include the Jefferson Memorial and the National Archives). Last year, she was named one of Architectural Digest’s top 100 designers and architects.

In March, she released “Interior Visions ” ($50, Monacelli Press), an elegant presentation of her projects. Hajj designs by her gut. Born in West Africa and raised in Beirut, Hajj comes from a family of Lebanese textile merchants. At 23, she enrolled i n t he Ma r yla nd Inst it ute College of A r t in Baltimore. At 30, she launched Mona Hajj Interiors. Now Hajj, 53, is a master of weaving her cultural roots into her designs, which often feature clay pots and artisanal rugs.

How did your cultural background inﬂuence your design aesthetic?

I was born in West Africa because my parents happened to be working there at the time, but I grew up in Beirut, which has a very international culture. Lebanon is known for its textiles, which I often incorporate into my designs.

Antiques are very present in your designs. What advice would you give about collecting antiques?

Where do you turn for inspiration?

Beirut and Syria are inspiring because they have this oldness, this richness in their culture. And Americana, of course. American folk art is unbelievably charming. My inspiration stems from small, unique artists doing their thing, which is very much what my parents did.

DON’T MISS OUT - ONLY 12 HOMES LEFT!

RICHARD ANDERSON

Designer Mona Hajj incorporates global inspiration and gut instincts into her work

That design is a way of life, not a brand name. When you go to a designer, it should never be about their style; it is about you. Designers find ways to express the client’s way of living.

Ornate decor makes Mona Hajj’s foyer a room to linger in, not pass through.

Just because it’s an antique doesn’t make it special. There are antiques that are for function, for visual beauty and even just for comfort. My interiors are about finding a balance. Most of all, antiques should feel easy and natural. They shouldn’t be intimidating or complicated, because at the end of the day, it is just an old piece! MEGAN BUERGER (THE WASHINGTON POST )

With many home improvement reality programs relishing dramatic, worst-case scenarios, it’s refreshing to see a project actually stay on track. When it’s a rehab in our own city, it’s doubly exciting. The DIY Network’s new episode of “Renovation Realities” (9 p.m. Saturday) offers a glimpse into Columbia Heights resident Giacomo Abrusci’s recent, relatively painless fix-up. With the help of friend Yale Scott, Abrusci spent five days in February transforming the guest bedroom in his 99-year-old rowhouse from a “small, claustrophobic room” into a loft-like space with new insulation, an exposed attic and a skylight — all for $2,500. Actually, he finished under budget. So, a fast, economical fix-up, completed without the help of any pros (per “Renovation Realities”

('$+

rules). What TV-worthy intrigue could possibly come from that? “The major problem we ran into was when I needed to build a box between the roof and the ceiling” to attach the skylight, says Abrusci, 29, who learned fix-up skills from his dad, a contractor. “I’d never done that before, and I shouldn’t have tried to learn on camera. But it still got done.” Abrusci, who works at the American Chemical Society and is a grad student at the University of Maryland, hasn’t viewed his episode yet but thinks we may see how the project’s short time frame took a toll on him. Besides working 10-hour days, Abrusci and Scott put in off-camera work to meet their deadline. They pulled an all-nighter between the fourth and fifth days. “That’s probably why I couldn’t figure out the proper dimensions for the skylight,” Abrusci says. Still, the project was worthwhile, he believes; he’s already hosted overnight guests in the transformed space. “Everyone says it’s awesome.” K ATIE ABERBACH (E XPRESS)

How did you develop these rules? I thought about how I got here. I asked, “How did this happen?” How did I go from a negative $50,000 tax return to here? From being alone to being married to my amazing husband? I thought about how I became fearless, and,

through writing the book, I put names on the rules. How does one become fearless? You have to get honest with yourself and act on it. Frankly, you could want to be a soccer mom or marry someone rich. It doesn’t matter. Rather than spending half your life trying to want something you don’t want, why not just say, “I want to live in the suburbs. I want a wealthy husband, an easy life, kids”? Whatever. You have to be honest, then go after what you want. A lot of reality stars pen selfhelp books. Are there too many? I have no idea. I don’t think about what anyone else is doing. But this book is different. I don’t believe that if you just wish something to happen, it’s going to happen. [My book]

You tried your hand at acting. Do you ever wish you had stuck with it? No, not really. I would rather be myself on TV and be able to help women by being honest. Regardless of how much money you’re making, actors have to play somebody else, so you don’t get to explore and experience who you are. You don’t get to have your water break on TV or promote your own business. Being a writer, do you read a lot? I don’t. I wish I read more. I took my baby down to Miami for five days recently, and what was I doing in my downtime? Playing with her. I’m not going to put her down to read a book. But you’re really into fitness. How do you make time to exercise? Working out at home has changed everything. Maybe it’s a little antisocial, but when the baby naps, my husband and I will work out or do yoga. We try to work it in. It’s easier if you know you’re going to get to it. K ATHERINE BOYLE (E XPRESS)

After many years commuting from a far-flung suburb, I’m moving to downtown D.C. Well, almost: Mt. Pleasant. It’s a 20- to 30-minute walk to my office downtown, and I’d like to stroll to work most days this summer. But I don’t want to be a frumpista who tromps to work in Nikes or — the horror — flip-flops! — NELL

orating schemes have in common? All star the color gray, which, as of late, is beating chocolate brown as the “it’ hue on blogs and HGTV. Ballard Designs’ just-released Didier line of Euro-mod furniture comes in the elephantine shade, which plays well with other contempo colors: yellow, teal, orange. Pieces include a dresser, end table and headboard (last two shown, $500 and $600-$700; Ballardesigns.com).

watch your Vanilla Cupcake stinking back. Legendary Parisian fragrance company Diptyque just turned 50, and instead of pouring a glorious two-story candleshaped cake, the brand bottled the scent of its first shop on the Left Bank, naming it after that address. So what does 34 Boulevard Saint Germain ($100, Diptyqueparis.com) smell like? Light and woodsy, comme la vie en rose itself. But, no, you can’t buy it at the mall next to Aunt Patience’s Amish Pretzel Stand.

Tote Recall? IT’S DISAPPOINTING to see brilliant books we could have easily written, like the ones in which someone moves abroad, pens a memoir/style guide and then ends up a character in a movie starring Julia Roberts. We sort of feel the same way about Jitesh Patel’s “The Tote Bag” ($25, Lawrence King Publishing). Photos showcase our collective obsession with bags, sacks and carryalls, with styles ranging from funny (“Nobody panic! I know origami!”) to stylish (jumbo Chanel bags sketched onto canvas totes).

Indeed, the Manolo spends the hour or two each afternoon strolling through the streets, tipping his hat to the ladies, saying good afternoon to the gentlemen, stopping occasionally at the sidewalk café for the cappuccino or the glass of Campari. Walking is the civilized and civilizing activity. It forces us to slow down and consider our surroundings, to politely acknowledge the fellow humans with whom we share the sidewalks. Walkers do not suffer from the road rage, the particular scourge of the automotive commuters, the malady brought on by the confining and isolating nature of our cars. Walking is to driving as the tipped hat is to the flipped bird. Of the course, when the Washington summer finally arrives, one may be tempted on the hot and humid days to retreat to the air-conditioned comfort of the car. Resist, friends; enjoy the season first by walking! Here is the Cole Haan Air Cynthia Mid Sandal ($178, Zappos.com), the espadrille that would keep you cool and comfortable on those pleasant strolls from Mt. Pleasant. Ask the Manolo a question at manolo@shoeblogs.com. Visit the Manolo at shoeblogs.com.

The Gang’s All Back

RICHARD FOREMAN JR.

Along with stars Paul Walker, left, and Vin Diesel, right, just about every actor previously involved with a “Fast” film returns, so director Justin Lin finds a place for cocky Roman (Tyrese Gibson), tech-savvy Tej (Chris “Ludacris” Bridges), and eyecandy mainstay Mia (Jordana Brewster). (T WP)

UNIVERSAL

Formal Face-Off

<_\j^ J_c[Êi W 9^Whc <_bc H[l_[m Quick! Name a Hollywood franchise that has produced its finest installment on the fifth try. It’s tough to do, right? Everything from “Harry Potter” to “Police Academy” tends to peter out after two or three films. But the burly, brawny “Fast Five” bucks the trend. By shifting into a previously untapped gear, it delivers the most entertaining “Fast and Furious” adventure while also getting 2011’s summer movie season off on the right lead foot. Let’s not get too carried away, though. This remains a “Fast” film and likely won’t win over new converts to the 10-year-old franchise. But the reason this series has survived for a decade is that it respects

its target audience, caters to their adrenalized needs and rarely tries to be something that it isn’t. This is a souped-up soap opera. “Guiding Light” for guys. Chris Morgan’s “Fast Five” script trots out melodramatic plot twists that are the norm on daytime television: unplanned pregnancies; betrayals

installment, the “Fast” series has followed the dangerous exploits of street racer Dom Toretto (Vin Diesel) and Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker), the ex-cop who became Dom’s partner in crime. The duo’s latest mission takes place in and around Rio de Janeiro’s congested favelas, where Toretto’s crew uses a stolen microchip to rob a sadistic drug kingpin, all while avoiding Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), the road-raging federal bounty hunter ordered to bring these fugitives to justice. That may sound like too much plot, but director Justin Lin, helming his third “Fast” film, has become adept at steering this continuing story around major plot holes as we race toward the next muscular action sequence. Morgan may have constructed a durable heist at the heart of “Fast Five,” but it’s Lin’s elaborately planned and eye-popping automobile stunts that butter this movie’s bread. SE AN O’CONNELL (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Two major releases hit screens this weekend: “Prom” and “Fast Five.” “Fast Five” is the latest in the “Fast and Furious” series, and I’m assuming things get even faster and furiouser. “Prom” is about zombies. Kidding. This weekend is kind of a battle of the sexes, movie-style. And I’m willing to bet that, once the receipts are in, “Fast Five” crosses the finish line first. “Prom,” above,has two obstacles to overcome: It’s mar8o Ah_ij[d keted not only toward FW][#A_hXo women, but also teens, so adult women are less likely to see it. And who else won’t be at “Prom”? Adult men. But you’ll see women at “Fast Five” and probably many who don’t want to be there. I’ve often heard that when a man and a woman go to the movies together, it’s more likely that the guy gets to pick what they watch, leading action films to perform better financially. “Guy movies” don’t need to market to women, because women will see them anyway, whether they want to or not. When it comes to “chick flicks,” women tend to see them with girlfriends, so men not only get to skip horrible romcoms, but they also miss the few films that feature women as three-dimensional characters, because, ewwww, those movies are for girls. This does not mean that women should drag their boyfriends to “Prom.” But if you WANT to see it and he’s chosen the last three movies — gentlemen, start your boutonnieres. Comments?

For movie lovers, prom evokes cinematic memories of pig’s blood in buckets, virginity-losing contests and “Pygmalion”-style makeovers. You’ll find none of those things in “Prom,” Disney’s chaste new take on the annual high school spectacular. Nor will you find much excitement, tension or resemblance to actual teen culture in this whitewash of the quintessential rite of passage. Director Joe Nussbaum’s story follows Georgetown-bound class president Nova Prescott (Aimee Teegarden, fresh off her role in “Scream 4”) as she plans her school’s “Starry Night” bash. In her opening voiceover, Prescott describes prom as the one perfect night that unites all high school seniors, regardless of their social standing over the past

four years. In the 20 minutes that follow this idealistic and unrealistic appraisal, guys devise increasingly theatrical invitations to the big night: “PROM?” the guys ask — with sidewalk chalk, window signs, stage lights and chest paint. Despite all that, Nova’s date, hunky but sensible valedictorian Brandon, merely asks Nova to “carpool” and

hands her a ticket. Already reeling from her slugline treatment, Nova faces another early tragedy when all of the prom decorations catch fire three weeks before the big night. To save the party, Principal Dunnan (Jere Burns) orders Jesse Richter (Thomas McDonell), a motorcycle-riding truant, to help Nova rebuild everything in order to graduate. She’s a conformist overachiever; he’s a troubled soul. A third-grader could tell that the two will fall hard for each other by the movie’s halfway point. SANDIE ANGULO CHEN (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Disney’s family-friendly “African Cats” focuses on two feline mothers in Kenya.

Dem

FbWo_d] AFRICAN CATS (G, 87 minutes) With carefully scripted narration by Samuel L. Jackson, “African Cats” focuses on two feline mothers prowling Kenya’s Masai Mara National Reserve: Sita, a cheetah “single mother” struggling to support five newborn cubs in the “North Kingdom,” and Layla, an older lioness who must overcome her injuries to raise her 6-month-old cub in the “South Kingdom.” A river patrolled by crocodiles separates the two realms. For the cubs of either species to reach maturity, both mothers must fend off invading predators while dealing with near-constant hunger. Ultimately, this is a universal story about how these wild mothers, like their human counterparts, sacrifice all to make sure their children are happy, healthy and well fed. SANDIE ANGULO CHEN ARTHUR (PG-13, 110 minutes) By 1981, when the original “Arthur” came out, the slurred-speech shtick of Dudley Moore — the titular playboy alcoholic who cackled wildly at his own jokes and then fell down — was already getting old. In 2011, the sight of Russell Brand doing essentially the same thing is a little bit pitiful. Arthur is the man-child heir of a family fortune who has been burning up his trust fund with hookers and booze. After he embarrasses his shrewish, strait-laced mother one time too many by crashing one of the cars in his collection of vintage movie cars, Mommy Dearest lays down an ultimatum: Marry the gold-digging but

pedigreed Susan (Jennifer Garner) or be cut off from the money tree forever. M. O. THE CONSPIRATOR (PG-13, 123 minutes) In “The Conspirator,” Robert Redford’s absorbing if puzzling Civil War-era drama, Robin Wright announces in no uncertain terms that she is back. Wright plays Mary Surratt, who in 1865 was accused of conspiring with John Wilkes Booth and others to assassinate Abraham Lincoln. When she was hanged a few months later, Surratt went down in history as the first woman to be executed by the U.S. government — made all the more notable by doubts as to her guilt in ensuing years. The historical consensus has since concluded that Surratt, who ran the boarding house where many of the conspirators met and whose son John was a Confederate spy and crony of Booth’s, was indeed guilty. But for there to be a movie, Redford must play up the ambiguity. A.H. DIARY OF A WIMPY KID: RODRICK RULES (PG, 96 minutes) The huge popularity of the “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” books can be traced to one simple fact: They ring true. Their underachieving preteen hero, Greg Heffley — whose diaries they purport to be — has no reason to lie. He’s writing in a private journal, after all. As a result, the picture they paint of the modern middle-schooler feels very real. He’s a flawed and funny Holden Caulfield Jr., a bumbler with backbone. If only the new movie based on the second book in the series, “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules,” were as candid or as hilarious. The problem doesn’t really lie in the acting but in the writing. There’s too much effort expended on making the kids cute and cuddly, instead of plausible. M.O. Continued on page 28

Robert Pattinson, left, and Reese Witherspoon star in “Water for Elephants.”

“Rio,” about a rare blue macaw, features bright colors and joyous songs. taire in “Source Code.” The movie opens with Stevens jolting awake on a Chicago commuter train, while his pretty seat mate (Michelle Monaghan) chatters happily away about quitting her job. A few minutes later, a bomb goes off and he’s sucked into yet another reality, a cramped metallic capsule smelling strongly of hydraulic fluid. What’s going on? And who’s that uniformed lady talking in Stevens’ ear? As “Source Code” unfolds in a series of cleverly assembled accordion pleats, Stevens discovers he’s on a mission with supernatural overtones but very real consequences. A.H. WATER FOR ELEPHANTS (PG-13, 120 minutes) Like the circus that provides the setting, “Water for Elephants” is big, slick and showy. It is also undeniably effective entertainment. The standout among its star attractions is the Austrian-born

Christoph Waltz as the mercurial-tothe-point-of-psychopathic August Rosenbluth. It is August who hires the film’s narrator, Jacob Jankowski (Robert Pattinson), a student of veterinary medicine forced to drop out of Cornell and join the circus when his parents are killed. And it is August who is married to ravishing circus performer Marlena (Reese Witherspoon), who catches Jacob’s eye. But their attraction is also the most predictable thing about “Water,” which, like a well-rehearsed circus animal, occasionally has the feeling that it’s merely going through the motions. M.O. YOUR HIGHNESS (R, 102 minutes) Once upon a time in a faraway land called Hollywood, two men set out on a quest to subvert the fairy-tale genre with a hilarious spoof. Luckily, their mission wasn’t life-or-death, because they were only half-successful. The story follows a king’s two very different sons: Fabious (James Franco) is the stereotypical dashing prince, while Thadeous (Danny McBride) is a chubby, lazy ne’er-do-well. The latter prefers smoking the funny stuff and chasing sheep to slaying dragons. But when Fabious’ bride-to-be, Belladonna (Zooey Deschanel), is kidnapped by the evil wizard Leezar, the king orders Thadeous to help his brother retrieve the damsel in distress. STEPHANIE MERRY

POM WONDERFUL PRESENTS: THE GREATEST MOVIE EVER SOLD (PG-13, 88 minutes) This advertising-themed documentary is food for thought that’s fun to eat. If that last sentence sounds like an ad slogan, it’s not surprising. It’s hard to come out of “The Greatest Movie Ever Sold” without a heightened sensitivity to the art of hyping, flacking and product placement. Morgan Spurlock resolved to make a movie about advertising that was entirely financed by advertising. He approached about 600 companies, 20 of which agreed to cover the film budget, in return for promotional consideration. Spurlock succeeds at a risky game in which he offers up a critique of commercial co-opting by allowing himself to be commercially co-opted. M.O. RIO (G, 96 minutes) With spring taking its sweet time getting here, the music, color and sheer 3-D joie de vivre of “Rio” couldn’t be more welcome. At the center of “Rio’s” swirling action perches Blu, a rare blue macaw who is a cozily pampered pet in Moose Lake, Minn. Voiced by the congenitally reticent Jesse Eisenberg, Blu is perfectly happy to play, snuggle and sip cocoa with his owner, Linda (Leslie Mann). But when an ornithologist arrives announcing that only one other macaw exists — and it’s a female of the species residing in Rio de Janeiro — Blu must confront leaving his comfort zone in order to save the species. Soon after arriving in Rio, however, Blu comes to feel he never should have left Moose Lake. A.H. SCREAM 4 (R, 112 minutes) “Scream 4” has issues. On the one hand, it is obsessed with itself. On the other, it suffers from a case of crushingly low self-esteem. Set 10 years after “Scream 3,” the movie centers on the return of Sidney Prescott (Neve Campbell) to her hometown of Woodsboro, notable for being the site of a series of grisly murders by a psychopath, dubbed Ghostface, in a black robe and Halloween mask. Film after film, it’s always Sidney who is the source of Ghostface’s homicidal rage, and most of the victims are collateral damage: lusty teenagers, lazy cops and others who happen to get in the way. Courteney Cox and David Arquette return as nosy newswoman-turned-writer Gayle Weathers and bumbling sheriff Dewey Riley, respectively, who are now married to each other. M.O. SOURCE CODE (PG-13, 93 minutes) Jake Gyllenhaal’s Colter Stevens, a decorated U.S. soldier recently deployed in Afghanistan, doesn’t play much soli-

When you sit in a cubicle all day, it’s maybe not hard to fathom the life of Milo (played by director Thaddeus Phillips, left), the protagonist of the off-season Fringe show “Capsule 33.” Milo lives in a pod, listening to the BBC and reading. Poor sap. Another intriguing fact about this show: The theater’s lights are powered by audience foot pumps, making it sustainable theatre.

Chapter and Verse If Rebecca Black’s “Friday” taught us anything, it’s that kids don’t understand rhyme or meter. Luckily, someone is tackling the poetry crisis in America’s schools. Poetry Out Loud is a national recitation contest for high school students. Finalists from 50 states (and the District, of course) will compete against each other for POETIC SUPREMACY. The nine finalists will perform Friday night in a competition hosted by actress Kerry Washington, left. Lincoln Theatre, 1215 U St. NW; Fri., 7 p.m., free; 202-682-5001, Poetryoutloud. org.

Right Round celebrates its ninth anniversary this weekend, and we’re still not tired of DJ Lil’e’s ’80s altpop dance night. It’s the perfect mix of frenzied dancing — to the Cure, the Talking Heads and other alternative ’80s legends — and low-key beer breaks in the main Black Cat bar for this springboardinto-summer weekend. Black Cat, 1811 14th St. NW; Fri., 9 p.m., $10; 202-667-4490, Blackcatdc.com. (U St.-Cardozo)

By the time you read this, or even pick up the newspaper containing this sentence, the much-hyped royal wedding will likely be part of history. The coverage begins, or rather began, at ridiculously early hours. BBC America kicked off its programming at 3 a.m. EDT. That’s midnight (last midnight!) Pacific time. E! began at 4 a.m. Me, I’m sleeping in. For those who don’t get up with the chickens, “The View” (11 a.m., ABC) will exult in all things matrimonial. National Geographic puts things in the past tense with “Royal Weddings Revealed” (9 a.m., and 8 p.m., National Geographic), a roundup of ceremonial shindigs

from the 20th century, including the wedding of George VI, the wedding of the present queen, in 1947, and the scandal-plagued union of abdicating King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson. And no royal roundup is complete without the royal coach-turned-pumpkin

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to be heard by a wider audience than usual, and, fortunately, the stars are likely to oblige, but late in the day. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You may have the chance to open up a new world of opportunity for yourself â&#x20AC;&#x201D; either today or very soon. Feel free to explore options. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to be sincere with those who have come to you for your opinion, especially when you are speaking of yourself. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You mustnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be brought down by the mistakes others are making at this time. Focus on the possibilities that are only just beyond your grasp. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) What is not known is likely to fascinate you, but your studies will only demonstrate the limitations you face. You want more.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good day to unveil what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been keeping under wraps for quite awhile. Some details need to be worked out still, however. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Though someone who wields more power than you may claim victory, you have a plan in the works that can put you on top. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You may receive a warning that you are not likely to take seriously at first. Later in the day, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll understand its true nature.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You may have cause to put yourself in a vulnerable position. Protect yourself as well as you can, but be ready for anything. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Routine is likely to be anything but â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the seeming contradiction can prove a strong motivator for you before the day is out.

Fill in each column, row and 3x3 box with the digits 1 through 9 without repeating any. The twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that appear in the overlapping boxes must work for both puzzles. A piece of advice to get you started: Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t focus on completing one grid at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as you go, because filling in a number in one grid could give you clues to another.
