page three Falcons claw back from brink PRINCE WILLIAM COUNTY, VA. For nine years, a pair of peregrine falcons have made their home in an unlikely place: the smokestacks of a Virginia power plant.

But animal researchers say the unique resting place might have spurred the rise of a new breed of Virginia falcons, bred with peregrines from other areas, after the birds’ disappearance more than a half-century ago. It’s also helping researchers amid a biological renaissance uncommon in nature.

One falcon, the female, came from the Betsy Ross Bridge in New Jersey. Her partner was born at a power plant in Maryland. Home is now near the top of a red and white smokestack at Dominion Energy’s Possum Point Power Station.

Together in Virginia for nearly a decade, they’ve had 25 young ones in a nest box placed by researchers.

Researchers from the College of William & Mary and Virginia Commonwealth University band the legs of each of the pair’s baby

The number of breeding pairs of peregrine falcons that lived in eastern North America before widespread pesticide usage in the early 1960s nearly wiped them out.

numbers that can be seen from afar and others are color-coded (Virginia’s are a forest green).

He said bands help keep track of the number of pairs and tell researchers how many young they are producing.

It’s a far cry from the early 1960s, when the eastern peregrine falcon was virtually wiped out east of the Mississippi River amid widespread pesticide usage — going from 25 pairs to none in Virginia and from 350 pairs to nearly gone in eastern North America, Watts said. The peregrine was placed on the endangered list, and the birds were slowly reintroduced to the area.

The first time the new breed of peregrine falcons laid eggs in Virginia was 1982, and now the state has more than 30 peregrine pairs. Elsewhere, Maryland has 28 confirmed nesting pairs as of 2016 and the District has one.

Environmentalists expect the numbers to keep climbing.

“It’s taken 40 years to get back where we were, but it’s a great success story in terms of conservation here in the East,” Watts said. “Our population in the Mid-Atlantic region, including Virginia, is self-sustaining now, in terms of the productivity.”

The Secret Service said in a statement that special agents from its Washington Field Office, as well as local police officers, began investigating potential threats made against people the agency protects, but at no time were they at risk.

A police report said authorities saw a firearm in Moles’ vehicle and found another inside the glove compartment. Police seized a Glock 23 pistol, a Bushmaster

assault-style rifle and 90 rounds of ammunition.

Newsham declined to comment on what may have motivated Moles.

The police chief said Moles was being interviewed and was cooperating with authorities.

Newsham added that the department did not have enough evidence to charge Moles with making threats, although a department spokesman earlier indicated that was part of the tip to Pennsylvania authorities.

Bryan Moles of Edinboro, Pa., was taken into custody at the downtown hotel, where he was staying as a guest, police said.

At a news conference, Metropolitan Police Department Chief Peter Newsham said his department, as well as the Secret Service, received information from the Pennsylvania State Police at about 12:30 a.m. that a tipster had reported that Moles was traveling to the Trump Hotel, armed with weapons and ammunition.

Moles, 43, checked into the hotel about 30 minutes later, Newsham said. Authorities worked with hotel security to locate Moles’ car, and later, Moles himself inside the hotel.

“I was very concerned about this circumstance,” Newsham said, “and I believe the officers and our federal partners, and in

local Hiring freeze enacted while Md. appeals ruling blocking construction TRANSPORTATION Maryland Transportation Secretary Pete K. Rahn on Wednesday ordered the companies contracted to design and build the state’s light-rail Purple Line to immediately scale back preconstruction work, citing a need to cut costs while the state appeals a ruling in a lawsuit blocking the rail line’s construction.

Rahn said he ordered the

contractor to stop executing new construction contracts and procuring any nonessential materials and equipment. The contractor also must freeze all hiring of construction staff, and the state will stop hiring project oversight staff. The state also will stop buying land for the 16-mile line’s right-of-way between Montgomery and Prince George’s counties, Rahn said.

“All parties are directed to limit the obligation of further costs for the Purple Line project,” Rahn said in a statement.

The slowdown — the Maryland

transportation department described it as a “suspension of key elements of the Purple Line project” — came a day after the Maryland Attorney General’s Office said it will appeal a May 22 court ruling ordering the state to redo the line’s ridership forecasts.

Rahn had warned in a mid-May court filing that the state would have to suspend preconstruction work on the project starting June 1 unless it had a “foreseeable path” to securing federal grants and having the project’s environmental approval restored.

local THE DISTRICT It looks like former President Barack Obama and former first lady Michelle Obama are putting down deeper roots in Washington: After renting a Kalorama home for their post-White House stint, the couple have purchased the eight-bedroom, 9½-bath home for $8.1 million, according to property records.

The Obamas have said they plan to remain in D.C. while their younger daughter, Sasha, finishes high school at Sidwell Friends. After leaving the executive mansion in January, the

family settled into a rental home owned by Bill Clinton press secretary Joe Lockhart and his wife.

The Obamas still own a Georgian-style home in the Hyde Park neighborhood of Chicago, the city that will house the Obama presidential library.

Spokesman Kevin Lewis, in a statement, said the purchase just made sense for the family: “Given that President and Mrs. Obama will be in Washington for at least another 2½ years, it made sense for them to buy a home rather than continuing to rent property.”

D.C. records show that Lockhart sold the home for $8.1 million to Homefront Holdings LLC, which is controlled by the Obamas. The deed transfer was recorded Wednesday. Lockhart bought the home in 2014 for $5.295 million, records show.

The high-end purchase price makes the Obamas’ new home the second-most expensive in the Kalorama neighborhood, behind the $23 million that Jeff Bezos, the Amazon founder and owner of Express, paid for the former Textile Museum.

Bomber kills 90 people in Kabul’s heart

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN A suicide attacker struck the fortified heart of the Afghan capital with a massive truck bomb Wednesday, killing 90 people, wounding 400 and raising new fears about the government’s ability to protect its citizens nearly 16 years into a war with insurgents.

The bomber drove into Kabul’s heavily guarded diplomatic quarter during the morning rush hour, leaving behind a bloody scene of chaos and destruction in one of the worst attacks since the drawdown of foreign forces from Afghanistan in 2014.

Most of the casualties were civilians, including women and children, a spokesman for the public health ministry said.

The dead also included Afghan security guards at the facilities, including the U.S. Embassy.

Eleven American contractors were wounded — none with lifethreatening injuries, a U.S. State Department official said.

“I have been to many attacks, taken wounded people out of many blast sites, but I ... have never seen such a horrible attack as I saw this morning,” ambulance

driver Alef Ahmadzai said.

There was no claim of responsibility for the attack, which came in the first week of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. In an email to news outlets, the Taliban denied involvement and condemned attacks against civilians.

The explosives were hidden in a tanker truck used to clean out septic systems, a spokesman for the interior minister said. The number of dead and wounded was provided by the Afghan government’s media center.

The blast gouged a crater about 15 feet deep near Zanbaq Square in the Wazir Akbar Khan district, where foreign embassies are protected by a battery of their own security personnel as well as Afghan police and National Security Forces. The nearby German Embassy was heavily damaged.

Also in the area is Afghanistan’s Foreign Ministry, the presidential palace and its intelligence and security headquarters, guarded by soldiers trained by the U.S. and its partners.

“The terrorists, even in the holy month of Ramadan, the month of goodness, blessing and prayer, are not stopping the killing of our innocent people,” President Ashraf Ghani said.

Although they are small in number, militants from the Islamic State in Khorasan — an ancient name for parts of Afghanistan, Iran and Central Asia — have taken credit for several assaults on Kabul. The latest attack underlined questions

about whether a U.S. pledge to send more troops will help.

Michael Kugelman of the U.S.based Wilson Center said more troops wouldn’t halt the attacks.

“But they could help,” he said, “by supplementing training programs meant to enhance Afghan intel collection capacities.”

The cost of backing out POLITICS President Trump was nearing a final decision Wednesday on whether to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement, with one White House official saying the president was leaning toward an exit but three others cautioning that he had not reached a verdict.

The matter has deeply divided the administration for months.

Ivanka Trump and Secretary of State Rex Tillerson have urged the president to remain in the deal, while White House strategist Stephen Bannon and Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt have been pushing for a withdrawal.

A withdrawal would put the U.S. in the same camp as Nicaragua and Syria: a tiny group of countries refusing to participate in the almost universally supported Paris climate change agreement.

More than 190 nations agreed to the accord in December 2015 in Paris, and 147 have since formally ratified or otherwise joined it, including the U.S. A U.S. withdrawal would remove the world’s second-largest emitter and nearly 18 percent of the globe’s present-day emissions from the agreement, presenting a severe challenge to its structure and raising questions about whether it would weaken the commitments of other nations.

Trump has already, through executive orders, moved to roll back key Obama administration policies, notably the EPA’s Clean Power Plan, that comprised a key part of the U.S.’s Paris promise to reduce its emissions 26 percent to 28 percent below their 2005 levels by 2025. As of 2015, emissions were 12 percent lower,

according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Trump’s environmental policies, aimed largely at rolling back regulations on the fossil fuel industry, have made it highly unlikely that the country could honor the Obama administration’s Paris pledge to sharply cut carbon dioxide emissions.

That leaves Trump with two clear choices: withdraw from Paris or revise the U.S. pledge downward to something more realistic in light of domestic policies, but nonetheless stay in the accord.

A downward revision would certainly prompt criticism from the international community, but not nearly so much as an abandonment. The Paris agreement is, after all, the first global accord on climate change action that unified both developed and developing nations behind a single framework to cut emissions.

Moreover, the accord is flexible in that it does not mandate that

Businesses : Hundreds of companies have spoken out in favor of the deal, including Apple, Google, Wal-Mart and fossil fuel companies Exxon Mobil, BP and Shell.

Congress : Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., and 21 other Republicans sent Trump a letter last week urging him to follow through on his campaign pledge to pull out of the climate accord. Meanwhile, 40 Democratic senators sent Trump a letter saying withdrawal would hurt America’s credibility and influence on the world stage.

any nation achieve any particular level of emissions cuts. Rather, every nation under the agreement pledges to do the best it can, and to participate in a process in which nations will regularly increase their ambitions over time.

The ultimate goal of the Paris agreement is to hold the warming of the planet to “well below” 2 degrees Celsius (3.6 degrees Fahrenheit) of warming above the temperatures found in the preindustrial period of the 1800s. The Earth is already about 1 degree Celsius (1.8 degrees Fahrenheit) warmer than it was in that era, scientists have determined, and current emissions seem likely to take the planet past 1.5 degrees C (2.7 degrees F) in the coming decades. Recent research has highlighted that above 2 degrees, major threats could ensue for Earth systems ranging from coral reefs to the planet’s vast ice sheets.

POLITICS President Trump has been handing out his cellphone number to world leaders and urging them to call him directly, an unusual invitation that breaks diplomatic protocol and is raising security concerns.

Trump has urged leaders of Canada and Mexico to reach him on his cellphone, according to former and current U.S. officials.

Of the two, only Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has taken advantage of the offer so far, the officials said. Trump also exchanged numbers with French President Emmanuel Macron, according to a French official.

Presidents generally place calls on one of several secure phone lines, including those in the White House Situation Room, the Oval Office or the presidential limousine. Even if Trump uses his governmentissued cellphone, his calls are vulnerable to eavesdropping, national security experts say.

The caution is warranted even when dealing with allies, as German Chancellor Angela Merkel learned in 2013, when a dump of American secrets leaked by Edward Snowden revealed the U.S. was monitoring her cellphone.

For Barack Obama, the first cellphone-toting president, many of the functions on his BlackBerry were blocked, and a very small handful of people had his phone number or email address, according to former aides. VIVIAN SALAMA (AP)

Aiming for the sun On new NASA mission, spacecraft will fly into the solar atmosphere SCIENCE A NASA spacecraft will aim straight for the sun next year and bear the name of the astrophysicist who predicted the existence of the solar wind nearly 60 years ago.

The space agency announced Wednesday that the red-hot mission would be named after Eugene Parker, professor emeritus at the University of Chicago. It’s the first NASA spacecraft to be named after a researcher who is still alive, noted the agency’s science mission chief, Thomas Zurbuchen.

Scheduled to launch next summer from Cape Canaveral, Fla., the Parker Solar Probe will fly

55%

within 4 million miles of the sun’s surface — right into the solar atmosphere. That will be considerably closer than any other spacecraft, and subject the probe to brutal heat and radiation like no other man-made structure before. The materials weren’t available until now to undertake such a grueling mission.

The purpose is to study the sun’s outer atmosphere and better understand how stars like ours work.

“But until you actually go there and touch the sun, you really can’t answer these questions,” like why is the corona — the outer plasma-loaded atmosphere — hotter than the actual surface of the sun, said mission project scientist Nicola Fox of Johns Hopkins University’s Applied Physics Laboratory.

The Parker Solar Probe will

venture seven times closer than any previous spacecraft, Fox said.

The announcement came during a University of Chicago ceremony honoring Parker, who turns 90 on June 10. Parker called it “a heroic scientific space mission,” referring to the temperatures and solar radiation to be endured by the spacecraft, and the extreme safeguards taken.

The probe will be “ready to do battle with the solar elements as it divulges the secrets of the expanding corona,” he said.

While 4 million miles may not sound that close, it is by solar standards, Fox said. She urged people viewing the total solar eclipse this August to remember to think about how the spacecraft eventually will be “right in there” amid the hazy corona surrounding the sun.

The Parker Solar Probe will

travel at a blistering speed of 430,000 mph and zip in and out of a region where the mercury hits 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit.

“Solar probe is going to be the hottest, fastest mission. I like to call it the coolest, hottest mission under the sun,” Fox said.

The spacecraft will carry a chip containing photos of Parker and a copy of his groundbreaking research paper from 1958.

Parker’s prediction of solar wind — the intense flow of charged particles or plasma from the sun — initially was met with skepticism. However, it was confirmed a few years later by observations from NASA’s Mariner 2 spacecraft. Until then, scientists believed the space between planets was merely a vacuum rather than part of the encompassing heliosphere it proved to be.

SPIKE IN ALZHEIMER’S DEATH RATE

The rise in the death rate from Alzheimer’s disease in the U.S. from 1999 to 2014, according to a report released Friday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. About 5.5 million people 65 years and older have the disease — a wretched and fatal form of dementia that erases memories and can destroy mental and physical capacity. By 2050, the number is expected to more than double to 13.8 million people. CDC researchers said the sharp increase may be due to the aging population, earlier diagnosis and greater reporting by physicians.

Alarming rate of depression found in teens Depression is usually considered an issue parents have to watch for starting in the turbulent teenage years. But what if by that time it’s already too late?

A major study out this week contains alarming data about children’s mental health in the U.S., finding that depression in many children appears to start as early as 11. By the time they hit 17, the analysis found, 13.6 percent of boys and 36.1 percent of girls have been or are depressed.

These numbers are far higher than previous estimates.

Understanding the risk of depression is vital because of the close link between depressive episodes and serious issues with school, relationships and suicide.

While researchers have long known about the gender gap in depression, with more adult women than men suffering from it, the new numbers show that whatever divergent paths boys and girls take happen even earlier than expected.

Published in the journal Translational Psychiatry, the study was based on data compiled from in-person interviews with more than 100,000 children who participated in the National Survey of Drug Use and Health.

Through the survey, researchers were able to capture a broader group of children than those who have a formal diagnosis and who may be in treatment. ARIANA EUNJUNG CHA

nation+world Agreement reached with special counsel on testimony to Congress POLITICS Former FBI Director James Comey is preparing to testify to Congress as early as next week about his private conversations with President Trump leading up to his abrupt firing, according to an associate of Comey’s.

Since his dismissal earlier this month, Comey had been expected to testify at some point about his private interactions with

the president, and the detailed memos he took describing the conversations.

Before he could testify, however, Comey had to ensure that he would not complicate the ongoing investigation of Special Counsel Robert Mueller, who is overseeing the probe into possible coordination between Russian agents and Trump campaign officials during the 2016 campaign.

Comey and the special counsel’s office have reached an understanding about what he can and cannot discuss, clearing the way for his testimony before the

Senate Intelligence Committee, according to people familiar with the matter. They cautioned that a date for his appearance had not been finalized. The development was first reported Wednesday

by CNN. Also Wednesday, the House intelligence committee approved subpoenas for ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn and his company, along with Trump’s attorney, Michael Cohen, and his firm, as part of its investigation into Russian activities during last year’s election.

NBA FINALS

GETTY IIMAGES/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

Consider the reigning champions

NBA FINALS | CAVALIERS AT WARRIORS, GAME 1, 9 TONIGHT, ABC

Historic rubber match Golden State and Cleveland have spent the past six weeks dismantling all comers, methodically advancing toward the NBA Finals rubber match the basketball universe has been awaiting. Now, starting tonight in Oakland, the Warriors and Cavaliers will square off to decide who gets to hoist the Larry O’Brien Trophy for a second time in three years. It’s the first time in NBA history the same two teams have met in the finals three straight seasons. Here are five things to focus on for the series. TIM BONTEMPS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Can the Cavaliers defend the Warriors?

Will Love be able to stay on the court?

Can the Warriors’ bigs contain Thompson?

Will Durant stay out of his own head?

Is it Curry’s time to shine in the finals?

This is the key to whether this series will be a rout by the Warriors or an extended series that the Cavs can steal. Cleveland was second to last in the league in defense after the All-Star break and has won its past two series against teams missing their best offensive players (Kyle Lowry for Toronto and Isaiah Thomas for Boston).

Guarding Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant and Klay Thompson is harder than anything the Cavaliers have done in these playoffs, and there is no proof they can raise their defense to the point it will have to be to handle one of the most explosive offenses of all time.

Kevin Love has been on fire during the playoffs, shooting 47.5 percent on 3-pointers, and can be a particularly deadly matchup for opponents at center. But he remains a liability on defense — particularly when the Warriors go small. If Love is able to hold his own on defense and play major minutes, he can space the floor and give LeBron James another option for his pinpoint passes.

Love’s role will be one of several cat-and-mouse games these coaching staffs will be conducting.

If Love can tip the scales in his favor, that will be a significant victory for Cleveland.

There will be plenty of focus on the star power at positions like point guard (Curry vs. Kyrie Irving) and small forward (Durant vs. James). But the most fascinating matchup might very well be Tristan Thompson vs.

Zaza Pachulia. If Golden State can stick with a traditional big man on the floor against Thompson, a rugged, mobile big man and a strong rebounder who is a star role player, that will allow defensive wizard Draymond Green to stick to Love. If Thompson dominates, the Warriors have to shift Green to center — wearing him down and allowing Love to play unencumbered.

After Game 3 of the West finals against the Spurs.

Durant made an interesting admission: “If I see a lane open, sometimes I think too much.” He explained he tries not to overthink situations, because when he does, he often makes the wrong decision. Now there’s plenty to think about. Durant is playing against James — who with Miami beat Durant’s Thunder in a five-game finals in 2012 — in the championship round.

That’s where Durant and the Warriors expected to be from the moment he agreed to sign with them in July. It will be fascinating to watch how Durant handles pressure in this moment.

Two years ago, Curry lost out on the NBA Finals MVP award to Andre Iguodala.

Last year, Curry had his moments in coming back from a knee injury early in the playoffs — including 36 points in Game 7 of the West finals and 38 points in Cleveland in Game 4 — but wound up being the face of Golden State’s collapse. This year, he enters the NBA Finals playing as well as he ever has in the postseason, averaging 28.6 points, shooting 50.3 percent from the field and hitting 43.1 percent of 3-pointers.

Everything is set up for this to be the moment Curry truly delivers on the NBA’s biggest stage.

The Warriors are the darlings of the NBA Finals, favored by Vegas and in most media picks.

Sports Illustrated’s Chris Ballard predicts a Golden State sweep.

ESPN’s Basketball Power Index gives the Cavaliers a 7 percent chance to win. Still, Cleveland has reasons to believe.

There’s the confidence that comes with erasing last year’s 3-1 deficit against Golden State; past finalists were 0-32 in that scenario. LeBron James, 32, looks ageless with 32.5 points per game in the playoffs and has learned how to ramp up his performance with scientific proficiency.

And, after missing the finals due to injury two years ago and averaging 8.5 points in last year’s final round, Kevin Love, below, is finally fully comfortable with the Cavs. GABE HIATT (EXPRESS)

Prediction: Golden State has Durant and an even deeper supporting cast. Even with James, Cleveland doesn’t have enough to keep up. Warriors in five.

Police: N-word was spray painted on the gate of LeBron’s home in Los Angeles

James responds: “No matter how many people admire you, being black in America is tough”

Glover, 24, entered Wednesday’s game in San Francisco having converted six of six save chances since he took over

Albers, whom Dusty Baker has called “the find of the offseason,” has settled into his setup role. He allowed an inherited runner to score in the seventh Tuesday but struck out the side in the eighth, giving him a 1.29 ERA in 20 appearances, the best on the staff.

of new cidermaker Greg Johnson, who is a veteran of Michigan’s Virtue Cider, known for its Old World farmhouse techniques and barrel-aging program. “I am looking forward to figuring out what we can do in Brightwood

that not many people in the U.S. are doing in an urban setting,” Johnson says. “I hope to emulate to some degree many of the cider styles traditionally found throughout Europe, especially Spain.”

Johnson started brewing in college and moved onto ciders once he discovered the world of traditional varieties beyond Woodchuck’s and Hardcore’s. On a whim, he says, he applied for an assistant cider-making position at Virtue. “My experience at Virtue really demonstrates what apples are capable of through fermentation, wood aging and blending, without the need for other fruits to provide character and complexity,” Johnson says.

Moving from Michigan to D.C. means a change in the types of apples he can use, so he’ll likely experiment with funkier or unusual flavors. “I don’t like to get too hung up on the chic apple varieties,” he says. “I am more interested in what I can find.”

Burgers by the buck Beef up your bun game with these patties — whether you want a cheap lunch or something extravagant

There are classic diner burgers, with thin patties smashed on griddles, and there are specialoccasion burgers, the kind made with truffles and dry-aged beef. And you’re probably craving one or the other right now. In this list of the D.C. area’s best beef burgers, you’ll discover real winners — all lesser known than those renditions served at the likes of Five Guys and Shake Shack — at a variety of budgets. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Over $20 The All-American Wagyu Burger Bourbon Steak, 2800 Pennsylvania Ave. NW; $25 (available at lunch and at the bar).

REY LOPEZ (UNDER A BUSHEL)

So often, the fanciest burgers are loaded up with top-notch ingredients, each competing with the beef for attention. Blue cheese, truffles, foie gras — who needs ’em? Bourbon Steak knows that when you use wagyu beef, nothing else should get in the way.

This burger — topped with classic American cheese, lettuce, tomato and onion, with nothing to distract you from that thick, velvety beef patty — may be fancy, but it’s not fussy. If we wanted to teach aliens about Earth’s culture by giving them one perfect burger, this would be it. MAURA JUDKIS

DIXIE D. VEREEN (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

Mirabelle, 900 16th St. NW; $28 (available at lunch only).

There’s barely a trace of the rosy color expected from medium-rare ground beef. The real shock, though, is this burger’s flavors: rich and ripe with a cheeselike funk. Chef Frank Ruta’s staff grinds its own dry-aged beef, a mix of chuck roll and steak trimmings, with at least 30 percent fat.

Which explains why the kitchen can overcook that 7-ounce patty and still serve up something tasty and worth every precious cent you pay for it. The beef is served wet (with beef stock and a red-wine sauce) or dry, and it’s surrounded with house-made comforts — bun, mayo, onion jam — and a cave-aged Gruyere. TIM CARMAN

Slices of orange American cheese melt down over the edges. Russian dressing exerts influence upon every corner. And a French flag flies on top next to the Stars and Stripes. This burger is a study in contrasts, with two crispyedged 4-ounce patties against a soft, sesameseed brioche bun baked in-house. Rich cheese and dressing are offset by bright, crisp pickle and red onion. It’s a lot of cheeseburger for the price. JIM WEBSTER

Stacked with two beef patties and gooey melted Gouda cheese, this burger has the welcome zing of arugula, plus the sweetness of charred red onions and a Thai chili sauce. You could add extra toppings — bacon and a runny egg would nicely counter the sugary notes — but what you won’t get are fries. The burger is a solo act, which is perfectly fine when the rendition is this great. EMILY CODIK

Fire and smoke are the trademarks of chef Victor Albisu’s South American restaurant, and this burger bears all the markings of a dance with the grill. The beef patty, red onion, thick slices of avocado and sesame-seed bun are all tattooed with char stripes. The meat is juicy, thanks to a blend of brisket, sirloin, chuck and rib-eye trimmings, and is topped with melted provolone. The surprise star is the smoked tomato, which brings a welcome jolt of acidity to the burger’s heaping 4-inch pile of richness. M.B.

Owners Elliott Rattley and Nick Lopata have changed almost nothing about their burger in the four years since they purchased the former Ray’s the Classics. The 10-ounce patty on a brioche bun remains the finest — and most affordable — steakhouse burger on the market. Fresh and loosely formed, the patty frequently crumbles into pieces that land softly on your plate, leaving little beef nuggets that you can dip in a side of “What the Heck Sauce,” a horseradish-laced condiment that takes the experience over the top. T.C.

Creative burgers are as essential to Slash Run’s DNA as its dozens of bottles of bourbon or the go-go and metal on the Petworth bar’s jukebox. The clear standout is the Rockaway Beef: a juicy patty seasoned with salt and pepper and garnished with fat strips of bacon and American cheese that gets sweet heat from cherry peppers and a spicy tang from the house “Slash Sauce,” which owner Jackie Greenbaum calls a “kicked-up version of Thousand Island.” It’s perfect with waffle fries and a local craft beer.

Oceanic whitetip sharks used to be abundant, but they are difficult to find these days.

Souls bared, not teeth Brian Skerry’s shark photography shows shy, complex, vulnerable — even friendly — creatures Deadlier than sharks

Brian Skerry has been photographing sharks for decades.

In 2015, one person was killed by an unprovoked shark in the U.S., according to the International Shark Attack File. Compare that to: Lightning (26 deaths in 2015) Dogs (36 deaths) Lawn mowers (91 deaths) Bathtubs (473 deaths) Beds (1,901 deaths) JEFF WILDERMUTH

EXHIBITS When “Jaws” hit theaters in the summer of 1975, Brian Skerry had an unusual reaction. “Most people wanted to avoid the water after seeing that movie, but I wanted to be Hooper, the guy in the water studying sharks,” says Skerry, who was 13 at the time.

He got his wish. Over the past four decades, Skerry has spent more than 10,000 hours underwater, often photographing the sleek, fearsome predators for National Geographic and other magazines. Over time, his view of sharks has evolved.

“When I started out, the notion of diving with sharks was sort of a machismo thing. I thought being in the water with a big predator would give me street cred as a diver,” he says. “But over the years, I came to see sharks as not

only powerful, but vulnerable. It’s very difficult these days to find a shark that isn’t showing signs of anthropogenic stress — something that’s happened to them because of fishermen — like a hook in its mouth or a machete scar.”

At the National Geographic Museum’s new exhibit, “Sharks: On Assignment With Brian Skerry” (through Oct. 15), you won’t see the usual scary shots of sharks with teeth bared and blood in the water. Instead, you’ll

see sharks as they really are: complex, curious, intelligent and vulnerable. Some of them are even friendly, Skerry says. Take Emma, a 14-foot tiger shark he regularly sees in the Bahamas.

“She is just the sweetest animal you can imagine. She is like a big puppy dog. She just comes

up and you can scratch her head,” he says.

Not that you should go around cuddling sharks, Skerry adds.

“These are potentially dangerous wild animals, not house pets, which is why I take a lot of precautions,” he says. For instance, sometimes Skerry dives in a shark cage and wears chain mail dive suits — pieces of equipment on view alongside his photographs.

Though Skerry has come face to face with thousands of sharks over the course of his career, he’s felt threatened only a few times.

“Contrary to popular belief, they are actually quite shy,” he says.

Great white In recent years, great white sharks have been spotted in increasing numbers off Cape Cod, drawn there by a similarly rebounding population of seals, Skerry says. “These sharks are completely wild — they haven’t been habituated to humans — so you can’t do what you do in other places, like put a little chum in water to get them to come to the boat. They are singularly focused on the seals,” he says. To get this photo in 2015, Skerry and his colleagues used spotter pilots and a drone to locate a great white, and then lured the shark in with a seal decoy.

Oceanic whitetip “This is an animal that, as recently as the 1970s, was the most abundant large animal on planet Earth. Today, it’s on the verge of extinction because it’s being hunted for its fins,” Skerry says. The photographer searched fruitlessly for one of these sharks in the Bahamas for more than a week in 2006.

Then, on Skerry’s 12th day at sea, he got lucky. “I saw a fin break the surface with that splash of white, and I just grabbed my camera and jumped in and she came right at me. I was a little worried because these animals have a bad reputation, but … the shark ended up doing these big, lazy circles around us for about two hours, and she gave me repeated photo ops.”

Seven-gill Skerry was photographing invertebrates living in the protected oceans near Fiordland, New Zealand, in 2006, when a rare sevengill shark made a surprise appearance. “It was pure serendipity. Just a chance encounter with an animal I’d never seen before in a very cool part of the world,” he says. “And what it told me is that marine protection — and in particular what they have done in New Zealand — is working, because when you see sharks, you know you’re in a healthy ecosystem.”

weekendpass Basically every studio passed on “Super Troopers” before Miramax decided to develop it and Fox ultimately released it.

Is that part of why you went the Indiegogo route for the sequel?

Fox owns the rights to the movie, and at the end of the day the studios have been gripped with superhero fever and if there’s not a superhero in it, they kind of don’t want to make it. So they said to us, “We’ll release your movie wide across the world but you guys have to come up with the money.” Luckily, the fans responded because if they hadn’t Fox would have been like, “Nobody wants to see the movie.”

Cult-comedy actor-director Jay Chandrasekhar tells all in his stand-up and new memoir

At his core, Jay Chandrasekhar, 49, is a storyteller. The actor/writer/ director/comedian has been telling stories all his life — often raunchy, hilarious ones with his collaborators in Broken Lizard, the comedy troupe that formed at Colgate University in 1990 and went on to make the cult films “Super Troopers” and “Beerfest” in the 2000s. In his memoir “Mustache Shenanigans,” released in March, Chandrasekhar tells the story of how an Indian-American kid from suburban Illinois grew up to become an improbable Hollywood success story. He also

Does it put more pressure on you because the fans literally paid for it?

I mean, we’ve succeeded by making movies that we like. We put jokes in that we have already laughed at and the gamble is if we think it’s funny, the audience that so far has thought we are funny will think it’s funny. All we can ultimately do is kinda go for it, and if [Broken Lizard member Kevin] Heffernan and I think it’s funny, it’s gonna be in the damn movie.

writes about smoking weed with Willie Nelson, directing acclaimed What can you tell me about it?

It’s a movie about the Canadian border on both sides and I can tell you that Rob Lowe is in it and it will probably come out sometime after Sundance next year.

TV shows like “Arrested Development” and finally getting to make a (crowd-funded) sequel to “Super Troopers.” This weekend, Chandrasekhar does stand-up in Arlington. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse, 2903 Columbia Pike, Arlington; Fri., 7:30 & 10 p.m., Sat., 7 & 10 p.m., $25.

You’ve written plenty of scripts, sketches and jokes. How did writing a book compare?

The thing about writing a book, particularly a memoir, is that you know where the story is going and you know the details of what happened along the way — as opposed to a script, where [anything is possible]. What you end up thinking about is all the major moments in your life. You can just write about those moments and connect them. I’ve written close to 20 screenplays and 100 sketches — I know exactly how to do them, they’re judged by

set criteria that I know. But with a book, because I’d never written one before, part of me just wanted to show the publisher: “I know what you think — you think we’re just these Hollywood writers that can’t write books.”

So I spent a lot of time trying to make it as great as I could.

Did you have trouble remembering some of the stories for the book?

I have journals that start at 10.

I have a journal entry from the night I lost my virginity. I have a condom that I taped into the

journal. I have very specific reflections on breakups and whatever. One of my random skills is I have a very strong memory for dialogue and moments and I don’t know why. I also take a lot of notes every day.

What should fans going to your stand-up shows expect?

I tell a lot of stories. They fall in line with some of the “Beerfest” era and “Super Troopers” era. They’re more stories from my real life. They’re dirty, for sure — there’s a fair bit of hopefully smart sexual stories and

Your book at times acts as a Hollywood how-to guide. What advice would you have for aspiring filmmakers today?

We can’t make movies without scripts and there’s no cost to writing a script, so my advice to newcomers is do it yourself: Write your own script, shoot your shorts, edit your shorts. It’s going to seem like it’s a waste of time, and it feels like nobody sees them, but eventually you’ll get better at them and people will see them. Then, you’ll be a low-cost alternative to me and somebody may give you a chance.

Matador is reissuing two LPs from D.C. guitarist Mary Timony’s ’90s band Helium because, she says, “people couldn’t find the records on vinyl easily anymore and I really wanted to have them out on vinyl again.” Her bandmates couldn’t tour, so she recruited friends to play the music live. Ahead of a D.C. show, Timony shared the first three songs that popped into her head.

Timony’s had the Cameroonian’s ’80s Afro-synth ditty stuck in her head since hearing it on Spotify: “There’s, I think, pan flute and I can’t figure out if it’s the most annoying melody or the catchiest melody you’ve ever heard.”

hard-drinking and drug stories and then I tell stories about all the movies, too.

Brian Cox plays Winston Churchill in “Churchill,” about Winston Churchill.

‘Churchill’ 1944 was a tough year for a lot of people, including Winston Churchill.

With the fate of the free world lying at least partially on his shoulders, it’s understandable that he was a little stressed out. In “Churchill,” a British biopic opening Friday in a number of area art-house theaters, Brian Cox plays the prime minister as he struggles in the days leading up to the invasion of Normandy. How does he cope? Almost solely through the support of his wife, Clementine (Miranda Richardson), who — with her intellect, perseverance and wit — is really the power behind the powerful.

‘The Iron Giant’

2

‘Odessey and Oracle’ The Zombies

Timony couldn’t settle on just one song from The Zombies’ classic 1968 psych pop album, which the reunited band has been playing in full on tour recently. “It’s one of my favorite records,” she says.

“I’ve literally seen them every time they’ve been [in D.C.] in the past five years.”

3

‘Desiree’ The Left Banke

“It’s just magical,” Timony says of this horn-punctuated tune from the ’60s baroque pop band. “I almost can’t describe why it’s so good. I think that’s why I’m really obsessed with ’60s music — that music was so magical.”

Long before he was Groot, Vin Diesel was the Iron Giant, the robot with the heart of gold in Brad Bird’s 1999 directorial debut.

In “The Iron Giant,” a boy befriends the mammoth machine and sets out to protect him from freakedout townspeople and well-armed government forces. Now you can see the Signature Edition, a restoration that includes scenes Bird storyboarded but couldn’t get into the movie because he hadn’t directed “The Incredibles” yet and the studio wasn’t sure he knew what he was doing.

In case of emergency: Laugh Podcaster Jon Lovett aims to deliver a tonic for our troubled times Q&A Jon Lovett spent three years writing speeches — and jokes — for President Barack Obama.

Now, he’s the host of “Lovett or Leave It,” a live, week-in-review panel show released as a podcast, and a co-founder of the liberal political outlet Crooked Media and its popular “Pod Save America” podcast. Though he’s traded the White House for Los Angeles, he sees parallels between his past and present roles, touting humor as a tool to discuss “our national [political] emergency.”

“Lovett or Leave It” “is substantive, even though we’re joking around and it’s in front of a crowd and at a comedy club or theater,” says Lovett, who brings the show to the Lincoln Theatre on Friday and Monday for soldout tapings. “It’s about finding ways to talk about issues and what’s going on in this country in a way that’s honest and accessible, in plain language that doesn’t rely on cliches and tired political language. And that’s also the job of a speechwriter, right?” ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS) In a nutshell, why do you make “Lovett or Leave It”?

I personally believe that Donald Trump being elected president is a national emergency and a crisis that stems from a great cascade of failures. And it’s easy to get overwhelmed and sad and withdraw because it’s too hard to deal with it, and I think that’s wrong. The only thing we can do is recognize how serious it is, but stay upbeat and stay in the fight.

It’s OK to laugh at how insane this moment is. This show is a little like therapy — it’s a chance to commiserate with other people who see things how you do.

What’s the audience in for at the D.C. shows?

crowd, so I’m excited to have a more substantive version of the show. It’ll be the show we always do, but we’ll bring in some interesting voices from D.C. — policy people and journalists, both liberals and conservatives.

Maybe Sean Spicer will show up.

That’s a great idea — it didn’t occur to me until now to invite Sean. We should do that. I would invite him to be a guest but I do

think even Sean is too savvy to fall into that trap.

Crooked Media is credited with getting a young crowd interested in politics. Are you surprised at how strongly it’s resonated with people?

As a joke I always say no, it’s exactly what I expected. But of course, it’s crazy. There is an incredible appetite out there for indepth, high-level conversations

about what’s going on. Young people especially are a lot smarter than they get credit for, and they want something that treats them like informed people [who aren’t just] interested in the latest poll numbers or little gaffes. We try to talk when the microphones are on the same way we would when the microphones are off.

How noodling can improve your noodle Jazz improvisation (and other types, too) will change your brain MUSIC Music does things to your brain.

Your whole brain.

“When you listen to music, any music, the brain is activated in a very robust way,” says Charles Limb, a doctor and researcher at the University of California San Francisco School of Medicine who specializes in the relationship between music and gray matter. “Literally almost every center of the brain is doing some sort of processing.”

How that processing happens and what it does is the focus of “Jazz, Creativity, and the Brain,” a presentation Limb will lead on Saturday. The event is part of the Kennedy Center’s “Sound Health: Music and the Mind,” a two-day celebration of a new partnership between the Kennedy Center and the National Institutes of Health.

The cornerstone of the festival — which features a lineup of performances, lectures and concerts — is a Friday concert featuring the National Symphony

Orchestra, so prano Renee Fleming, singer and “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett, piano rocker Limb Ben Folds and several neuroscientists, including Limb, ready to explain what the music is doing to your brain.

In his Saturday session, Limb will use jazz to explore the effects of improvisation on the brain. That brings in Vijay Iyer, who — along with singer and bassist Esperanza Spalding — will be presenting with Limb.

Iyer, who’s been doing research with Limb for years, is a composer and jazz pianist known for his improvisational work.

“I’m not playing verbatim the notes somebody told me to play,” Iyer says. “I function with a certain amount of creative independence.”

When a musician improvises, “the prefrontal cortex is engaged, and one of its functions is conscious self-monitoring, censoring your output. That area of the brain is shutting down,” Limb says. Improvising well means a musician has to shut up the part

of the brain that would typically be worried about “wrong” notes, enabling him or her to more easily let go.

During Saturday’s presentation — it’s like a TED Talk with music — “we’re going to speak about what we know about improvisation, about music and emotion from our experience,” Iyer says. “It’s not so much that we’re going to be hooked up to electrodes or anything like that or stuck in an fMRI. Though [Limb] has done that.”

Limb also wants to drive home that improvising — not just in music, but in any form — is good for the brain.

“The more ways you can challenge your brain, the more beneficial it is in terms of synaptic connections and neural processing,” Limb says. “Somebody who’s in their kitchen cooking or dancing, that is their way of stimulating that part of the brain.”

With last year’s “Coloring Book,” Chance the Rapper made the leap from “promising upstart” to “voice of his generation.” The Chicago talent took the gospel flirtations of his mentor Kanye West’s “The Life of Pablo” and turned them into an album of full-on gospel-rap paeans. In February, Chance won the Grammy for best new artist. The 24-yearold has also quickly become an able activist, meeting with the governor of Illinois and donating $1 million to Chicago public schools.

MUSIC

The 25th anniversary of this genre-blending jazz and soul fete is crowded with longtime festival favorites, including jazz titans George Benson and Lee Ritenour, who’ve influenced generations of guitar players. When the focus isn’t shifting from, say, The Whispers to Stokley, women will command the stage, during performances by Corinne Bailey Rae, Maysa, Sheila E. and Candy Dulfer. Included in the Sunday lineup: a tribute to the late jazz and pop great Al Jarreau.

Scheherezade enchants us.

“An unadulterated, great time” – DC Theatre Scene Visit ConstellationTheatre.org Be our guest for this tale as old as time.

This breathtaking musical features the animated film’s Academy Award®winning score.

Developed by Elia Arce with Latino community members, the riveting stories of survivors of domestic violence and sexual abuse are told.

An “audacious, uproarious black comedy” (NY Times) flips the script on gender power dynamics and asks: how do we heal when our politics divide us?

Shakespeare’s greatest tragedy. An epic parent-child drama and then some. A once-in-a-lifetime performance not to be missed.

This wildly popular interactive comedy whodunit keeps the audiences laughing as they try to outwit the suspects and catch the killer. New clues and up to the minute improvisation deliver “shrieks of laughter night after night.” (Washington Post) Last two weeks of Gilad Evron’s moving Ulysses on Bottles..“Well-acted, sharply produced” (TWP). Winner of Israel Theater Prize’s Best Orig. Play.

David Sedaris is getting personal — well, sort of The author’s collection of diary entries has bits and pieces of a memoir BOOK REVIEW Long before Facebook was a gleam in Mark Zuckerberg’s eye or the president of the United States became the world’s most powerful tweeter, David Sedaris was recording his day-to-day life the old-school way — in diaries.

Randomly open to any page of his latest release, “Theft by Finding: Diaries (1977-2002),” and you’ll find a gem.

“April 16, 1979, Raleigh: Dad on friendship: ‘Sure, some people are nice. Real nice. Nice like carpets so you can walk all over them.”

“Nov. 4, 1987, Chicago: I saw a bumper sticker the other day that read, ‘I LOVE KILLING COMMUNISTS.’ The word love was replaced by a heart shape I’m guessing they’ll put on the typewriter keyboard any day now, right beside the exclamation point.”

Sedaris has been reading his diary entries aloud for decades now at meet-the-author events, but “Theft by Finding” marks the first time he’s curated his favorites and bound them up for the masses. It’s a little like a memoir, except all the holes aren’t filled in. It helps to know that he has five siblings (Lisa, Gretchen, Amy, Paul and his late sister Tiffany), was raised in a suburb

In his new work “Theft by Finding: Diaries (1977-2002),” David Sedaris shares small samples of his life, leaving readers to fill in the blanks.

of Raleigh, N.C., and has a partner named Hugh.

The rest you c a n pie c e to gether from the entries. Restless in Raleigh at the age of 21, he sets out each fall to pick fruit in places like Odell, Ore., and Ithaca, N.Y., where he lets his eye for the absurd wander and writes it all down.

Eventually, he ends up at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, envisioning a future in visual and performance art.

National Public Radio (NPR) host Ira Glass hears him reading from his diaries one night and the rest, as the cliche goes, is

history. A regular NPR feature follows, as do a series of New York Times best-sellers.

Now 60, Sedaris hasn’t published anything since his 2013 essay collection, “Let’s Explore Diabetes With Owls,” so this diary dump may give fans hope that another collection isn’t far behind.

But if all we get is “Diaries (2003-2016)” instead, we’ll still be better off. Sedaris’ gift is to make you stop and think one moment and laugh out loud the next.

If you happen to find a copy of “Theft by Finding” lying around, the title is probably all the legal cover you need to take it, read it and pay it forward when you’re done. ROB MERRILL (AP)

Halsey matures on a risky record ALBUM REVIEW To describe Halsey’s sophomore album as ambitious would be an understatement. It actually begins with her speaking the prologue of “Romeo and Juliet.”

Shakespeare is kind of a tough act to follow.

So full credit to Halsey for stretching herself on “hopeless fountain kingdom,” which drops Friday. It’s an album that demands attention as the singer-songwriter explores new musical ground.

It’s a complex, sober, riskier record brimming with heartbreak from one of pop’s most exciting artists. Halsey considers it a concept album and how well it works is debatable. But there’s no denying the skill and desire involved.

Halsey is frustrated and broken on all 13 of the tracks, many

of which are surprisingly spare.

“Sorry” is mostly her and a piano, gorgeously done.

She lets her rock voice out to great effect in “Bad at Love.” The Weeknd gets a songwriting credit on the ghostly “Eyes Closed” and Sia gets one for the very Sia-like “Devil in Me.” Cellos, violins and choirs pop up all over, adding a kind of ghostly majesty.

Halsey, born Ashley Frangipane, rose to fame with “Closer,” her monster track with The Chainsmokers, and her excellent 2015 debut album, “Badlands.”

The new album might not have huge anthems — the closest is the exquisitely sad “Now or Never” — but it’s just as satisfying, with Halsey’s breathy voice and confessional lyrics taking you to unexpected places.

TOGETHER is a project of Virginia Tech and the University of Maryland, College Park.

Funding for this Project was provided by the United States Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Grant: # 90FM077-01-00.

Couples are randomly assigned to receive or not to receive services to evaluate the effectiveness of the program.

CONTROVERSY

Everyone is really mad at Kathy Griffin

Chance hears our cries, then ignores them Chance the Rapper opened up to Ebony magazine about a potential career in politics. (Fans launched a campaign for the artist to run for mayor of Chicago, the city he’s from.) “I would never run for any office or government position,” he said. “I think politics is a reason why a lot of stuff doesn’t get done. … I think when you’re in my position as an artist, I can say what I want and talk about the issues that matter.” (EXPRESS)

Kathy Griffin, who issued a video apology on Twitter Tuesday for posing in a photo with what looked like President Trump’s severed head, has lost several gigs because of the image. CNN said Wednesday it has terminated its agreement with the comic to appear on its New Year’s Eve program; Route 66 Casino in New Mexico has scrapped her July 22 performance; and Squatty Potty, the toilet stool company, said it was suspending her ad campaign. According to TMZ, the Secret Service launched an investigation into “the circumstances surrounding the photo shoot.”

Trump reacted to the image on Twitter, writing that Griffin “should be ashamed of herself.” (AP/EXPRESS)

Brooke is in our thoughts during this very hard time

University of Oprah pupil presents master’s thesis

Brooke Shields is enduring a harsh interview process for a tennis club in the Hamptons, the New York Post reported. The Meadow Club of Southampton has a “famously tough membership process,” and a source said an applicant has to be nominated by a current member and seconded by another before an interview process. Actors are usually not admitted. (EXPRESS)

Kevin Hart talked about career goals with Variety, saying he’s a “student” of “business mentors” Oprah Winfrey, Jay Z and Tyler Perry. “It’s about getting their nod of approval and knowing I’m going in the right direction,” Hart said. His agent, Dave Becky, said Hart wants to be the “comedic Oprah.” He’ll “do the things that Oprah and LeBron James do,” Becky said, “where they don’t just do their craft — they create industries.” (EXPRESS)
