page three A new Catholic wedding GROWING UP

Baby Moke is teething, zoo reports THINKSTOCK

RELIGION The outdoor wedding, stuff of girlhood fantasy and bridal magazine photography, has long been off-limits to most Catholics. No beachside ceremonies or mountaintop nuptials: The code of canon law, straight from the Vatican, says that marriages performed by a priest are meant to be celebrated in the bride or groom’s parish church. But some U.S. dioceses are starting to test the boundaries of that law, which says that with permission of the proper Catholic authority, a priest can perform a marriage in “another suitable place.” The Archdiocese of Baltimore began testing a new policy in February that allows priests and deacons to request to marry a couple somewhere other than their parish church. Archdiocese Chancellor Diane Barr said priests have asked to marry 50 couples in venues such as hotels and museums, and Barr’s office has approved all the requests. About a third of the requested venues are outdoors, she said.

Since February, the Archdiocese of Baltimore has approved weddings in hotels, museums and outdoor venues.

“There are some really beautiful wedding venues,” she said. Barr said the archdiocese still urges couples to consider their parish church first. “That’s the center of our church activities. You would like them to get married, essentially, in the church’s living room,” she said. “That’s where all the other sacraments happen: baptism, first Eucharist, penance.” But priests came to the chancellor’s office saying more and more young people were skipping Catholic marriage ceremonies altogether because they wanted a personalized venue. So Baltimore

Police

decided to take a route that the Diocese of Helena, Mont., took two years ago — allowing priests to perform wedding ceremonies in an array of locations, including outdoors. Barr said that some other dioceses do the same on a sporadic or case-by-case basis but don’t publicize the policy. The Baltimore Archdiocese officially changed the policy on Valentine’s Day this year but did not publicize it online until last week. There are still some restrictions: No weddings in bars or clubs. Boats are out, too. JULIE ZAUZMER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The National Zoo reports that Moke (pronounced mo-KEY), the baby western lowland gorilla born April 15, now possesses a grand total of four teeth. At 5 weeks, Moke was seen to have gained two lower incisors. In the past two weeks, the zoo said in a blog post Friday, he has acquired two upper incisors. The choppers can sometimes cause nutritional problems. Gorilla infants typically nurse for about three years and, the zoo said, the teeth have created some discomfort for Moke’s mom, Calaya. (TWP)

Trains could bypass certain stations if they become overcrowded, and Metro could slow trains approaching stations because of platform crowding — which could cause delays. Get your SmarTrip card in advance and make sure it’s loaded with enough money to get you to and from your destination, as the swarms of passengers could make it difficult to access fare machines. Some stations could become “entry only” or “exit only” as conditions warrant, Metro said.

The parade starts at 11 a.m. and will run along Constitution Avenue NW, culminating in a rally on the Mall. Road closures stretch from 23rd Street to Seventh Street NW, with “optimal viewing” from 17th to Seventh streets, according to Caps owner Monumental Sports. The NHL and Mayor Muriel Bowser’s office described the parade as starting at 17th Street. The parade will turn onto the Mall at Seventh Street, and that’s where the rally will begin.

THE DISTRICT Thousands are expected to descend on the Mall today to celebrate Washington’s first major championship team in 26 years with a parade honoring the Capitals’ Stanley Cup win. If you’re planning on being anywhere in the vicinity — whether as a parade-goer or as one of the folks stuck in the office during the festivities — you’re going to want to ditch your car and come up with a plan for maneuvering around — and through — the celebrations. Metro will run extra trains to support the large crowds, and several major streets will be closed to clear the parade route. Parade organizers estimate more than 100,000 revelers will come out to support the champions. Here’s what you need to know if you are attending the parade or will be working, dining, hitting bars or sightseeing nearby.

The mayor’s office announced nearly two dozen road closures to keep the parade route open to celebrants rather than vehicle traffic. The restrictions will begin at 9:30 a.m. Tuesday and be in effect through 3 p.m. Parking restrictions went into effect Monday night. On Seventh Street NW, there will be no parking through 11 p.m. today in the stretch from Pennsylvania Avenue NW to Independence Avenue SW. The street also will be completely closed from Constitution Avenue NW to Independence Avenue SW during those hours. Officials stressed that paradegoers and others commuting into the city should find alternatives to driving if at all possible. Commuters should “take Metro or ride-share as parking is extremely limited near the parade route,” Bowser’s office said. As usual during large events, bike corrals will travel around until 3 p.m. Tuesday to make more room at Capital Bikeshare stations. FAIZ SIDDIQUI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

MARYLAND Maryland prison officials have reversed a statewide policy that limited access to books for thousands of inmates as part of an effort to reduce drug smuggling. Prisoners can immediately begin receiving book shipments directly from relatives and online retailers, according to Public Safety and Correctional Services Secretary Stephen T. Moyer. The corrections department on Monday also lifted its constraints on how often inmates could order through prison-approved vendors. “The department strongly believes it can continue prioritizing the safety and security of its correctional facilities while fostering the rehabilitative component of corrections through literature,” Moyer said in a letter to the American Civil Liberties Union. Prison officials put new bookordering restrictions in place in April, The Washington Post reported, as a response to the high volume of drugs being trafficked into facilities, including in books. The decision to rescind the policy came after criticism from lawmakers, inmates and their families. The ACLU characterized the restrictions as an

Officials had until Monday to respond to the group’s concerns. “We are extremely glad they have rescinded what was clearly a misguided policy and are affirming their commitment to making sure people have access to books,” said Sonia Kumar, an attorney with the ACLU of Maryland. State officials initially defended the policy that restricted inmates to 10 book purchases every three months from two vendors that distributed paper catalogues.

Pivotal week for future of U.S. internet access BUSINESS Two pivotal developments this week could dramatically expand the power and footprint of major telecom companies, altering how Americans access everything from political news to “Game of Thrones” on the internet. Monday marked the official end of the U.S. government’s net neutrality rules, which had required broadband providers such as AT&T, Charter, Comcast and Verizon to treat all web traffic equally. The repeal is part of a campaign by Ajit Pai, the Republican chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, to deregulate the telecom industry in a bid to boost its investments — particularly in rural areas. “I think ultimately it’s going to mean better, faster, cheaper internet access and more competition,” Pai said in an interview. Others disagree and will challenge Pai in court, while many states are fighting back with their own laws, further muddling the situation. One day after the net neutrality changes, a federal judge is set to rule today on whether AT&T can buy Time Warner. AT&T, already the country’s secondlargest wireless network, stands to gain a content trove from Time Warner that includes HBO and CNN — leading the Justice

Department, which filed the lawsuit, to argue that the company could harm its rivals. The two events in Washington could lead to further consolidation of wireless, cable and content giants, public-interest advocates say. And they fear that behemoths like AT&T might someday prioritize their own TV shows and other content over rivals’. Internet service providers, or ISPs, deny that they would engage in such a practice — yet consumer watchdogs worry that consumers would have little legal recourse if they did. “I think this could be a onetwo punch to consumers and online competition,” said Gene Kimmelman, the president of

238K

Public Knowledge, a D.C.-based public interest group. “The combination of no net neutrality and video consolidation creates new bottlenecks that empower the traditional media industry to raise prices and limit online competition.” But Pai, who has visited 26 states and two territories, said he heard a different message from consumers as the government’s net neutrality rules expire. Americans feel they are “on the wrong side of the digital divide” and lack broadband options, he said. “They are not concerned that internet service providers are going to block access to lawful content.”

Looking at more than 800 infants and toddlers from 6 to 23 months of age, researchers found that 85 percent consume sugar daily. From ages 19 to 23 months, toddlers consumed more than 7 teaspoons of sugar daily. Added sugar has been tied to health problems such as obesity, diabetes and heart disease. The suggested limit for kids up to age 19 is less than 6 teaspoons per day, USA Today reported — the same limit recommended for adult women. (EXPRESS)

nation+world Supreme Court rules states can remove people over inactivity WASHINGTON States can target people who haven’t cast ballots in a while in efforts to purge their voting rolls, the Supreme Court ruled Monday in a case that has drawn wide attention amid stark partisan divisions and the approach of the 2018 elections. By a 5-4 vote that split the conservative and liberal justices, the court rejected arguments in a case from Ohio that the practice violates a federal law intended to increase the ranks of registered voters. A handful of other states also use voters’

inactivity to trigger processes that could lead to their removal from the voting rolls. Justice Samuel Alito said for the court that Ohio is complying with the 1993 National Voter Registration Act. He was joined by his four conservative colleagues in an opinion that drew praise from Republican officials and conservative scholars. The four liberal justices dissented, and civil rights groups and some Democrats warned that more Republican-led states could enact similar voter purges. Ohio is of particular interest nationally because it is one of the larger swing states in the country with the potential to determine the outcome of presidential elections. But partisan fights over

ballot access are playing out across the country. Democrats have accused Republicans of trying to suppress votes from

minorities and poorer people who tend to vote for Democrats. Republicans have argued that they are trying to promote ballot integrity and prevent voter fraud. Ohio’s contested voter purge stems from an inoffensive requirement in federal law that states have to make an effort to keep their voter rolls in good shape by removing people who have moved or died. But Ohio pursues its goal more aggressively than most, relying on two things: voter inactivity over six years encompassing three federal elections, and the failure to return a card, sent after the first missed election, asking people to confirm that they have not moved and continue to be eligible to vote.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. A Kirtland Air Force Base officer with top security clearance who disappeared 35 years ago has been found in California. The Air Force Office of Special Investigations said in a news release late last week that William Howard Hughes Jr. was apprehended at his home after a fraud investigation involving a fake identity he had been using. Hughes was involved in classified planning and analysis of NATO’s control, command and communications surveillance systems during the Cold War. Hughes was last seen withdrawing over $28,000 in Albuquerque in the summer of 1983 after returning from a twoweek vacation in Europe. He had just completed a stint in the Netherlands, where he worked on the Airborne Warning and Control electronic surveillance aircraft. He was supposed to be back in Albuquerque by August. An Office of Special Investigations spokeswoman told the Albuquerque Journal that there’s no indication Hughes was involved with the Soviet Union or the leaking of classified information. Hughes told authorities after his capture on Wednesday that he was depressed about being in the Air Force and decided to leave. He created a fake identity and lived in California ever since. Hughes was charged with desertion and is being held at Travis Air Force Base in California. (AP)

N. Korea homecoming? They are the simplest of dreams. To see familiar streets once more. Or walk along a river at the center of childhood memories. These dreams belong to people who risked everything to flee North Korea and then, as some of the most high-profile defectors, spoke out about the rights abuses and repression of Kim Jong Un’s regime. But now, ahead of the summit between Kim and President Trump in Singapore, which began after Express’ deadline Monday night, the defectors are considering a question that until recently seemed foolish to ask: Could they one day return home? Here is what three defectors had to say. BRIAN MURPHY (THE WASHINGTON POST) Jung Gwang-il is always looking for new routes and methods to send across the border flash drives, memory sticks and other bits of technology packed with glimpses of what’s outside. “Until the people in North Korea have a right for information, I will continue,” said Jung, 55. In 1999, he was arrested in North Korea on espionage charges. He denies the charges but said he confessed under torture. Then came three years at the Yodok political prison camp. A year after his release, still emaciated and weak, he swam across the Tumen River to China. He made his way to Thailand and, finally, to Seoul. “I would like to go home, but I know I can’t as long as Kim Jong Un is in power,” Jung said. The risks, he feels, are just too high. His return could bring new problems for his brother, a state overseer at a factory. Jung has sometimes gone to the Chinese side of the border and looked over at North Korea. “I left this place with [a] broken heart, and whenever I see it I wish to go back,” he said. 2

Lee Hyeon-seo, 38, was in London in April when she heard of plans for the first meeting between Kim and South Korea’s president, Moon Jae-in. “I was really stunned. I was looking up at the sky and thinking, ‘If that really happens and — over time, maybe I can really visit my home country and see all my relatives and my friends,’ ” said Lee, who chronicled the story of her life in North Korea

and her escape in a 2015 book, “The Girl With Seven Names.” “I really had that hope,” Lee said, speaking in English she learned since arriving in South Korea after a decade living under false identities in China. “But also, at the same time, I don’t really want to have the dream about [returning] because, when it breaks, I will be hurt again.” Lee left the North in 1997, traveling over the frozen Yalu River into China. She moved to South Korea in 2008. She joined other defectors in urging the West to topple the Kim dynasty. Only then, she believes, could she again see her home town of Hyesan. 3

Summit developments On the eve of a high-stakes summit with Kim Jong Un, President Trump sought to consolidate support from key allies, speaking by phone with South Korean President Moon Jae-in and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. Trump also met with Singaporean Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong. The summit was scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. Tuesday (9 p.m. Monday EDT — after Express’ deadline) at the secluded Capella resort hotel on the island of Sentosa, off Singapore’s southern coast. (TWP)

was 10 years old. The students assembled in rows under a statue of Kim Jong Suk, a North Korean guerrilla hero and the first wife of then-leader Kim Il Sung. Ji now wonders if someday soon he might go back to that same spot

3 and celebrate a turning point for North Korea with other defectors and former political prisoners. “I still don’t know what exactly I will be doing when [reunification] comes, but I will be helping North Korean people to settle well into democracy and freedom,” said Ji, 36. In 1996, amid crippling famine, Ji tried to steal a few pieces of coal from a rail yard to barter for food. He passed out from hunger and was hit by a train, forcing doctors to amputate his left arm and left leg without anesthesia. A decade later, he slipped across the border to China, hobbling on rough-hewed wooden crutches and crude prosthetics. “When I get to go back to my hometown, I want to tell people that, even if I led a relatively better life here, I never forgot about you,” he said.

ENVIRONMENT Less than two weeks after a pilot whale died off Thailand with 80 plastic bags in its stomach, three major companies — SeaWorld, Ikea and Royal Caribbean — have vowed to remove plastic straws and bags from their properties. The companies are now linked to others across the world that have joined an effort to reduce the 8 million tons of plastic that pollute oceans each year, according to a 2016 report released by the Ellen MacArthur Foundation. SeaWorld Entertainment said Thursday that its 12 theme parks had removed all plastic straws and bags. Interim chief executive John Reilly called the move “a testament to our mission to protect the environment, the ocean and animals.” The same day, Royal Caribbean Cruises said its fleet of 50 ships “will ring in 2019 free of plastic straws.” Guests will instead get wood stirrers for coffee and bamboo garnish picks. By 2020, Ikea said, its stores will no longer hand out plastic bags or straws as part of an effort to become “people and planet positive” within 10 years. The trouble with plastic, studies say, is it seldom goes away. Of the billions of tons produced since 1950, the vast majority is still sitting in landfills, recycling facilities and the ocean, a study last year concluded. A tiny percentage was burned in incinerators, which also produced pollution. DARRYL FEARS (TWP)

nation+world Victims of domestic and gang violence now are less likely to qualify IMMIGRATION Attorney General Jeff Sessions signaled Monday that victims of domestic abuse and gang violence generally will not qualify for asylum under federal law, a decision that advocates say will affect tens of thousands seeking safe harbor in the U.S. Sessions’ ruling overturned a 2016 decision by the Justice Department’s Board of Immigration Appeals that said an abused woman from El Salvador was eligible for asylum.

Sessions told immigration judges Monday that his decision “restores sound principles of asylum and long-standing principles of immigration law” and will help reduce a growing backlog of 700,000 court cases, triple the number in 2009. “We have not acted hastily, but carefully,” he said in a statement. To qualify for asylum, foreign nationals must establish that they have a fear of persecution in their homeland based on race, religion, national origin, political opinion or “membership in a particular social group,” a catchall category that has in the past included battered women and victims of gang violence.

Sessions curbs asylum eligibility

Attorney General Jeff Sessions overturned a 2016 decision.

Sessions’ ruling said such cases would be less common going forward. “The mere fact that a country

may have problems effectively policing certain crimes — such as domestic violence or gang violence — or that certain populations are more likely to be victims of crime, cannot itself establish an asylum claim,” Sessions wrote in his statement The attorney general’s ruling said it is still possible that crime victims could win asylum in the United States, but they would have to pass a tougher test in the courts, including showing that their home government is unable or unwilling to protect them, and that they cannot safely relocate to another part of their own country.

Paramedics came and helped with his burns, but the incident also ruined Matula’s dress shirt. As his class lined up, two sheriff’s deputies showed up to help.

A push to strip U.S. citizenship from cheaters IMMIGRATION The U.S. government agency that oversees immigration applications is launching an office that will focus on identifying Americans who are suspected of cheating to get their citizenship and seek to strip them of it. U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services Director L. Francis Cissna, above, told The Associated Press in an interview that his agency is hiring several dozen lawyers and immigration officers to review cases of immigrants who were ordered deported and are suspected of using fake identities to later get green cards and citizenship through naturalization. Cissna said the cases would be referred to the Department of Justice, whose attorneys could then seek to remove the immigrants’ citizenship in civil court proceedings. In some cases, government attorneys could bring criminal charges related to fraud. Until now, the agency has pursued cases as they arose but not through a coordinated effort, Cissna said. He said he hopes the agency’s new office in Los Angeles will be running by next year. “We finally have a process in place to get to the bottom of all these bad cases and start denaturalizing people who should not have been naturalized in the first place,” Cissna said. “What we’re looking at, when you boil it all down, is potentially a few thousand cases.” AMY TAXIN (AP)

STANLEY CUP

C CHAMPIONS

BARRY SVRLUGA | THE WASHINGTON POST

Before he finally put his hands on the hardware, Alex Ovechkin turned to his teammates, bent at the waist, opened his furry face and let out a scream. This was everything he had waited for during his 13 NHL seasons and his 1,124 NHL games. But before he touched the Stanley Cup, he had to face his guys. “It’s nice to be part of it,” Ovechkin said afterward. And that’s how Ovechkin finally won the Cup. He thought of himself as a part of it, the leading man as bit player, willing to do whatever it took. Ovechkin scored a goal in the 4-3 victory over the Vegas Golden Knights in Game 5 of these finals that provided the Capitals with their first title. That the goal came on the power play, that it came on a pass from Nicklas Backstrom — that all seemed appropriate, because those two have shared in the building of the Capitals as a contender, but also in the pain that always followed. But when Ovechkin was allowed to skate over to the Cup, to touch it and hoist it and kiss it and skate away with it, he was aware of the men who afforded him the opportunity. They were people like Devante Smith-Pelly, a castoff who scored as many goals in the playoffs as he did in the regular season. They were people like Lars Eller, who poked home the game-winner with 7:37 left. In his most private moments, Ovechkin had to doubt whether this would ever happen. Few athletes define a sport in their town like he defines hockey in

Washington. “This moment, we [were] waiting a long, long time,” Ovechkin said. “Since day one. Funny story. … ” And he launched into a story of his first year in town, of being at the home of Ted Leonsis, who owns the team. “We were swimming in the pool,” Ovechkin said. Leonsis turned to Ovechkin and said: “One day, we’re going to win it.” Sounded easy at the time. Oh, what both know about the road now. “What’s it been — 12, 13 years?” general manager Brian MacLellan said. Take the latter number, and that’s it. “To come through at this point? It’s outstanding.” But for it to happen, there had to be a change — and there was. Ovechkin spent the last two months erasing so much from what might have been his legacy. Had Thursday night not happened, we would have written the same old stories spring after spring after spring: He can’t push past Pittsburgh or he’s not the leader he should be or there’s something missing that we can’t put our finger on. Retire without Thursday night, there would be no real discussion about who was the best player in NHL history who failed to win a Cup. Now, that argument doesn’t involve the most important player in Capitals history. “It has to change what people think about him,” MacLellan said. “He played a total game. He played within the system. He led us to a championship. He did lead.” He is 32 now, and maybe had he won his first Cup back in those times when he hung out

at Leonsis’ pool, it would have been more about him. As it was, he spent much of Thursday night deflecting attention. “It’s not about me,” he said. He took a question about Evgeny Kuznetsov, the young Russian center who set up so many of Ovechkin’s 15 goals this postseason, and turned it into a tribute not only to Kuznetsov’s talents, but to Smith-Pelly’s work ethic and Eller’s grinding goal. When he received the Conn Smythe Trophy as the most valuable player of these playoffs, he pointed to his teammates before he skated over to Commissioner Gary Bettman, who stood with the award. And then, the Cup. He is the

captain, and the captain gets to skate with the Cup first. “He told me he was going to give it to me afterward,” Backstrom said. So Ovechkin skated with the Cup first, then he handed it to Backstrom.

And when Backstrom took off up the ice, Ovechkin went with him. “It was nice that he skated around with me,” Backstrom said. When each and every Capital had his chance to lift the Cup, there was Ovechkin, one more time. “Let’s take a picture!” he said. “Let’s take a group picture!” It was the picture he had waited his entire career to take. When it was snapped, he was in the middle with the Cup surrounded by the guys who helped him hold it — guys he realized were every bit as important as he was to making this moment finally, mercifully take place.

STANLEY CUP

C CHAMPIONS

Washington’s unlikeliest hero STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONS For Devante Smith-Pelly, the biggest playoff moment in a postseason full of gargantuan ones began midway through the third period in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup finals, when the Capitals trailed 3-2. That was when Brooks Orpik flipped the puck toward Vegas goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury, and SmithPelly spotted a big open space in front of the Golden Knights’ net. Smith-Pelly lumbered across the zone. The puck squirted into his path. He kicked the puck ahead, settling it like a soccer player, and shot it past Fleury as he twisted off-balance to the ice. Fleury lay face down in his crease, defeated. Smith-Pelly screamed and scrambled to his feet, then screamed some more as his teammates pinned him against the glass. “That’s just DSP,” Capitals defenseman Christian Djoos said later, shrugging as if the acrobatic play was normal. “If there is a big goal to score, of course he is going to score it.” That will be one of the looping replays of the Capitals’ first Stanley Cup victory, the secondto-last goal of a magical season. A goal scored by a fourth-line winger who was not even a lock

Washington’s banner years For D.C. sports fans who are in their 20s or younger, the Capitals’ run to the Stanley Cup is the first major sports title they could follow in real time. Older fans might have fond memories of the 11 other pro championships the city has enjoyed, dating back to the Senators in 1924. (TWP)

Smith-Pelly transforms from a fringe player to epic playoff performer

Devante Smith-Pelly reacts to the last of his seven playoff goals — a third-period, game-tying score in Game 5.

to make the team out of camp. Smith-Pelly carved himself into franchise history with seven playoff goals, matching his total from 75 regular-season games. He scored in Games 3, 4 and 5 of the Stanley Cup finals, each a Capitals win. He tied Alex Ovechkin for most third-period goals this postseason with five, none bigger than the one that

knotted the score in Game 5. “This is why we play,” SmithPelly said after the game. “Our whole life is for this moment.” It was a moment full of improbability: Smith-Pelly speaking to a crowd of reporters, Capitals fans chanting his initials — “D-S-P! D-S-P!” — his family giddily taking video of it all. The 25-year-old had bounced

around the NHL for seven seasons and was on the brink of falling out of it this past summer. The Devils bought him out after an unproductive season. The Capitals signed him to a two-way contract — a leagueminimum $650,000 if he played in the NHL, $350,000 if he played in the minors. He earned one of the final

spots and worked to become a regular in the lineup. His contributions mostly included grinding along the boards, using his body to ram opponents in the neutral zone or bothering opposing forwards with every ounce of his athleticism. The contributions did not include much scoring. Not until the playoffs. Not until something, somehow, clicked. “I don’t know, I don’t know. Every game is so important, I don’t know,” Smith-Pelly said when asked to explain his seven playoff goals. “Just trying to do my part, and [the shots] just so happened to be going in for me.” And the goals just so happened to come in massive moments: the sealing goal in Game 3, the final score of a three-goal first period in Game 4, then his falling-down shot in Game 5 that tied the score in the Capitals’ clincher. There are no small goals in the playoffs, but each one off Smith-Pelly’s stick felt extra big for the Capitals, both because of timing and the value of secondary scoring in a Stanley Cup run. “Smith-Pelly did it again, amazing finals. I’m so happy for him,” said forward Brett Connolly, standing across the ice from Smith-Pelly and smiling at the mention of his teammate’s name. “He’s had to earn everything he’s got this year, and he was our hero.” JESSE DOUGHERTY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

DAN STEINBERG | THE WASHINGTON POST

‘It was just elation’: D.C. finally gets to feel like a winner After I had walked through the world’s biggest handshake line with 30,000 new best friends, after I strolled through 10 or 20 blocks crammed with the happiest people you’ve ever seen, after I came the closest I might ever come to feeling weightless, I had a thought:

So this is what it feels like. This is what it feels like when the last game of the season goes right. This is what it feels like when the zillions of hours you spent feel worth it, when the Powerball hits, when there isn’t a single what might have been. This is what it feels like when a city wins a championship. Amid all the celebrations following the Capitals’ Stanley

Cup-clinching win Thursday night, I sat down on the sidewalk. A woman named Martha Dippell came up to me, leaned down, and said “We won the Cup.” She said it many times. She wasn’t wrong. Dippell is a Caps season ticket holder, a native Washingtonian, someone who went to Caps games in Landover, Md., who attended all four Joe Gibbs Super Bowls. She made her millennial children come downtown after the Capitals clinched, and then she made her way to the top of the Portrait Gallery steps because that’s where she needed to be, and then she stopped to talk to me, because every stranger seemed to be doing that. “Let me just say, we’ve been so starved,” she said. “So

starved, as a community. And it’s so important for our community to come together, for there to be a common bond.” We don’t have a lot of those bonds; it feels like there are fewer now than before. And so it was around that time, as cars drove past me honking and fans walked past me screaming and Washington enjoyed its least minor-league-sports-town day in its history, that I started thinking about the first time Caps fans made me tear up. That was on New Year’s Day in 2011. The Caps were in Pittsburgh for the Winter Classic, and just about every Capitals fan in the Eastern time zone had decided to join them. Everywhere you looked, there were Caps sweaters. Everywhere you looked, there

were hugs. Everyone wanted to say hi, to glom onto that giant mass of red. Everyone knew everyone else, and even if you didn’t, you still sort of did. Seeing that weird, half-tipsy, absurdly happy mass of fans create their own community — “it makes sports fandom seem a little less irrational,” I wrote then. Pretty sure I shed a couple tears as I typed in my hotel room. Maybe I was tired. It happened again when the Caps won the Cup. Times 10. Times 100. Times a billion. “D.C. is alive,” a fan named Zack Vinson told me, and it felt that way, like a wriggling organism, six or 10 or 20 blocks just curling up and then unfurling into something I had never seen before. It sizzled through you, opened your eyes

wide, made you forget everything else in the world. People stood on cars. Cabdrivers stopped in the middle of the street, taking photos of the madness. There were group singalongs, people chanting and gleefully cursing and asking if what just happened had really just happened. There were honking horns, so many honking horns, the happiest honks. Mobs danced on parts of buildings you didn’t know existed, accompanied by musicians who appeared out of nowhere. Everyone was high-fiving everyone, high-fiving police officers, high-fiving people on bicycles, high-fiving people hanging out of cars. There were blocks and blocks of entrancing insanity. But it was also exhausting, being with 30,000 or 40,000 friends you had never met, and so finally I sat down on the sidewalk — right outside City Center, at 9th and I — and started calling my actual friends. I called Jim Miller, a guy my age from Prince George’s County, whom I hung out with that New Year’s Eve. “I fell down,” he said, when I asked how he reacted to the win. “I fell down and started crying. I couldn’t even stand up. I couldn’t stand up. I have been so emotional this week, I could not even drive. I would have to pull over on the side, just thinking about what could happen.” I called Sgt. Major Bob McDonald, the absurdly devoted Washington sports fan who’s been singing the anthem at Caps games for a quartercentury. He was in Las Vegas, he told me. He had just hugged Nicklas Backstrom’s dad. “It’s such a release” he said. “It’s going to take so long to really sink in, but it feels amazing. Just a relief. They can never take it away. We won the Cup. I can’t even believe I’m saying it. Trust me, I was not the only Caps fan who was in tears.” “You need a source for tears? I got a source for tears,” said J.P. Klingenberg, walking by and overhearing my phone

STANLEY CUP

The viewing party in Chinatown for Game 5 drew a swarm of red-clad fans, who filled the streets for blocks.

conversation. He had watched this game with his dad. They had attended so many crushing, soul-rending losses together. They were together again on this night, and so of course they cried. “I’m the dog that caught my tail,” Klingenberg said. “What do I do now?” I called John Auville, one of the Sports Junkies, who’s loved the Caps so much for so long that it almost makes you hurt

to hear him talk about it. He had just returned home after a trip to Dick’s Sporting Goods in the middle of the night, where he spent $400 on Caps championship gear. His late father, he told me, had turned him into a Caps fan. Then he did the same with his kids. They cried, too. “My daughter was crying, I was crying; we were hugging,” he said. “It was just elation, is the best word I can think of.”

Why, is the question. Why did they all feel like that? Why were all these people using the same words: relief, release? Why the tears? Why that irrational gurgle of joy that made so many people hug whomever was there for the hugging? “You know what, being able to quantify why anything that happens in sports has that effect on you is almost impossible,” said William “Goat” Stilwell, perhaps the best-known

Caps fan, when I got him to break off from a party that was still going strong at 2 a.m. “For me now, after all these years, it’s a communal thing. There are so many fans I have gotten to be friends with over the years, so many people I’ve seen at the absolute depths of their despair. And to be able to see everyone smiling after the final game of the season, it’s hard not to get swept up in that kind of emotion.” The people I was most thinking about Thursday were the Caps fans who had been through so many of these nights together, the people I had seen or talked to after the Game 7 loss to Pittsburgh, or the Game 7 loss to Montreal, or the other Game 7 loss to Pittsburgh, the people who remembered all the blown series leads, all the blank stares, all the emptiness. Put aside some of the other D.C. sports wounds; the Capitals torture was easily in a class of its own. It’s the dullest cliche of the week, but it really is true: All that waiting made Thursday night more glorious. That’s not to say the losses were good. But the exhale sure was. This thing fans had spent years and decades dreaming about? It actually happened. That deep breath they had wanted to expel for as long as they could remember finally whooshed into the streets. All the jokes are over. All the taunts don’t work. All the worrying is gone. But not just for them: for their dads or their daughters, their grandmothers or their brothers, for the people they sit next to in the arena, the people they meet at Penn Quarter Sports Tavern. “Sports in general are a silly business, to get wrapped up in the achievement of things other people do,” Stilwell said. “You kind of question it once in a while. But when it brings you this kind of joy, you tend not to scratch under the surface too much. You just ride the wave.” Follow Dan Steinberg on Twitter @dcsportsbog

Caps develop clutch gene

The Capitals’ title season by the numbers

of a number of changes this spring that finally let the Capitals triumph after years of premature playoff exits. BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)

105

Killer instinct

49

In the words of Capitals coach Barry Trotz, Alex Ovechkin was “on a mission” this postseason. At age 32, he scored a team-record 15 playoff goals, won the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP and has been celebrating as only he could. The captain’s attention to detail produced a more complete game, according to general manager Brian MacLellan. But Ovechkin’s maturation was just one

Former Capitals forward Justin Williams, a three-time Stanley Cup winner, often said that championship teams know how to “seize the moment,” how to sense opportunities as they happen, not in retrospect. The issue with previous Caps teams, Williams believed, was a tendency to let big moments slip away. This year’s Capitals had no such problem. This spring, Washington became the third champion in NHL history to clinch all four series on the road. In nine previous postseasons, the Caps were just 6-15 in potential series-clinching games and twice blew 3-1 leads (2010, 2015). When the Caps built a 3-1 lead in the finals, coach Barry Trotz was asked about that history. “I don’t think we were mentally in the place we are now,” he said. “We’re a totally different team.”

The number of points in the standings the Capitals (49-26-7) accumulated in the regular season. That was good enough to win a third straight Metropolitan Division title, but it was only the sixth-best total in the league. Players said not having to live up to the Presidents’ Trophywinning hype ultimately helped the team stay loose.

Immunity to adversity

The 2018 Capitals may have been the most resilient team in the Ovechkin era, becoming just the second team to win the Cup after trailing in all four series. The Caps tied an NHL record with 10 road wins in the playoffs, climbed out of a 2-0 hole in Round 1 and eliminated the Penguins in Round 2 despite playing Game 6 without Nicklas Backstrom, Andre Burakovsky and Tom Wilson. Their lineup that night featured five rookies, including two making their postseason debuts. Washington avoided elimination in the East finals thanks to shutouts by Braden Holtby in Games 6 and 7. The whole run was a far cry from 2010, when the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Capitals had a 3-1 series lead on the Canadiens but let a rerouted flight from Montreal and a night stranded on the tarmac in Baltimore disrupt their momentum.

The number of goals scored by captain Alex Ovechkin in the regular season, the most in the NHL. This season was the seventh time Ovechkin claimed the Maurice Richard Trophy, including the lockout-shortened 2012-13 season. Since the award was first given out in 1999, no other player has more than two.

2.16

GETTY IMAGES

The goals-against average in the postseason for Braden Holtby, the lowest among any goalie who started at least seven playoff games this year. Holtby’s regular-season GAA (2.99) ranked 30th among netminders with at least 30 starts.

Stacked at center

Stability down the middle eluded the Capitals earlier this decade with a revolving cast of centers playing behind stalwart Nicklas Backstrom. The Capitals won one playoff series from 2010 through 2014, relying on a collection of rentals that included Brendan Morrison, Eric Belanger, Jason Arnott, Mike Ribeiro and Mikhail Grabovski. None spent more than a season in D.C. By contrast, this year’s team had the depth to weather the loss of Backstrom for four playoff games. Evgeny Kuznetsov was the postseason’s leading scorer with 32 points in 24 games. Lars Eller came through with a double-overtime game-winner against Columbus and the series clincher against Vegas. Veteran Jay Beagle had the finest postseason faceoff rate (60.1 percent) of any player who took at least 125 draws.

Scorers in reserve

Last year, Lars Eller, Jay Beagle and Daniel Winnik were all held without a goal in 13 playoff games. Brett Connolly, who had a career-high 15 goals that season, was held pointless in seven postseason games and was eventually scratched. In seven games against the Penguins that year, not one bottom-six forward scored for the Capitals. In this year’s second-round series against Pittsburgh, nine Caps forwards scored, and five had multiple goals. Devante Smith-Pelly, who had seven goals in the regular season, scored three in six finals games. Eller (seven goals) and Connolly (six goals) rebounded from last year’s paltry postseason totals. Rookie Jakub Vrana opened the scoring in the Capitals’ Cup-clinching Game 5 win. Fellow rookie Chandler Stephenson played all 24 playoff games and scored two goals with seven points.

29%

Washington’s power play percentage in the playoffs, the second-highest of any team. Boston scored on 36.4 percent of its power plays but lost in the second round to Tampa Bay. Washington’s playoff success rate of 29.3 percent was a sharp improvement on a regularseason PP percentage of 22.5, seventh-highest in the NHL.

Artemi Panarin scored 6:02 into overtime to give the Blue Jackets the win in Washington. The Capitals lost despite going up 2-0 in the first period behind a pair of Evgeny Kuznetsov power-play goals on Josh Anderson’s fiveminute major penalty for boarding and injuring defenseman Michal Kempny.

Washington fell into a 2-0 series deficit with a second straight home loss. Matt Calvert scored the OT winner on Capitals goalie Braden Holtby, who came in after Philipp Grubauer was pulled for allowing four goals on 22 shots. Blue Jackets goalie Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 54 of the Capitals’ 58 shots.

Holtby got the start over Grubauer and stopped 33 shots to help the Capitals avoid going down 3-0. Capitals center Lars Eller got the gamewinner, crashing the net and getting the last stick on a puck that pinballed off him and Columbus defenseman Zach Werenski before rolling past Bobrovsky.

After blowing two-goal leads in the first two games and needing double overtime to win Game 3, the Capitals tied up the series with a dominant Game 4 performance behind their top line. Kuznetsov, Alex Ovechkin and Tom Wilson each had a goal, and they combined for eight points in the win.

The Capitals were outshot and outplayed in the third period, but Holtby came up big with 15 of his 39 saves in that frame. Then in OT, Nicklas Backstrom deflected defenseman Dmitry Orlov’s shot past Bobrovsky for his second goal of the game. It was the first time in the series the home team won.

Ovechkin scored twice, including his 50th playoff goal, and Holtby had 35 saves as the Capitals won their fourth straight — and third in Columbus — to advance. Washington got contributions from everywhere, with goals from Eller, Orlov, Devante SmithPelly and Chandler Stephenson. (EXPRESS)

Evgeny Kuznetsov started the round with a jolt, flicking the puck over Matt Murray’s glove to score 17 seconds into the game. Alex Ovechkin scored early in the third period, to make it 2-0 but Pittsburgh erased the lead with goals by Patric Hornqvist, Sidney Crosby and Jake Guentzel.

Ovechkin’s left skate kicked out to his side as he sniped in a goal less than 90 seconds into the game. That set the tone, and Braden Holtby was phenomenal with 32 saves. Tom Wilson’s knockout check on Brian Dumoulin drew scrutiny on the Caps’ forward but did not lead to a suspension.

Tied 3-3 late in the third period, the Caps turned to their franchise pillars. Nicklas Backstrom stole the puck, skated down the ice and wrapped it around a defenseman’s stick to feed a streaking Ovechkin, who buried it with 1:07 left. Wilson gave Zach Aston-Reese a broken jaw. This time, the controversial hit led to a three-game ban.

Washington squandered the series lead, taking just 21 shots on goal and allowing Guentzel to bend the net twice. A tripping penalty by Guentzel allowed T.J. Oshie to tie the game on a second-period power play, but an interference call on Oshie led to Evgeni Malkin’s go-ahead goal.

Winger Jakub Vrana was inserted in the Caps’ top line, and the 22-year-old rookie rewarded the move with a primary assist on a Kuznetsov goal that tied the game 3-3 early in the third period. With less than five minutes left, Vrana drifted in front of the net and slammed home Ovechkin’s pass for the game-winning goal.

The script finally flipped in overtime. After crossing up Murray and sneaking the puck just under the goaltender’s skate, Kuznetsov flapped his wings 5:27 into the extra period. For the first time in the Ovechkin era, the Caps eliminated Pittsburgh and escaped the second round. (EXPRESS)

Alex Ovechkin had a goal and an assist in his Eastern Conference finals debut. The turning point of Game 1 came in the final seconds of the first period when Nikita Kucherov’s would-be goal was waved off because Tampa Bay had too many men on the ice. Five seconds later, Ovechkin scored to make it 2-0.

The Capitals scored in the opening minute of the game and twice in the last 1:02 of the second period to pull away and improve to 7-1 on the road in the playoffs. Evgeny Kuznetsov and Lars Eller each had a goal and two assists. Ovechkin and Tom Wilson had a goal and an assist apiece.

The Capitals outshot the Lightning 38-23 but were doomed by six minor penalties — including three by Eller. Lightning sharpshooters Steven Stamkos and Kucherov each scored on the power play. Ovechkin and Kuznetsov combined for 21 shots, but Andrei Vasilevskiy came up with 36 saves.

The Capitals held the Lightning without a single shot on net for a 21-minute stretch, starting in the middle of the first period, and outshot the Lightning 38-20, but Washington only managed to get two past Vasilevskiy. With the loss at Capital One Arena, the Capitals fell to 3-5 at home in the playoffs.

It took just 19 seconds for Lightning center Cedric Paquette to score, and by 33 seconds into the second period the Caps were already down 3-0. A goal by Ovechkin with 1:36 left cut the lead to 3-2, but Vasilevskiy had three big saves down the stretch to hand Washington its third straight loss.

The Capitals got their home crowd going by embracing their physical style. They outhit the Lightning 39-19 and outshot them 34-24. Tom Wilson and Brooks Orpik led the way with six hits each, and T.J. Oshie scored twice. Braden Holtby stopped all 24 shots he faced to record his first shutout since April 5, 2017.

Ovechkin, who entered with a 3-7 record in Game 7s, scored 1:02 into the game, and Andre Burakovsky added two goals. Holtby became the fifth goalie to deliver a Game 7 shutout to clinch a spot in the Stanley Cup Final. The Lightning failed to score in the last 159 minutes, 27 seconds of the series. (EXPRESS)

Drawn into a breakneck pace, Washington traded flurries with Vegas early and wilted late. Tom Wilson outmuscled two Golden Knights and pushed a go-ahead goal through the legs of Marc-Andre Fleury in the third period. But Vegas tallied three more goals, two from fourth-line forward Tomas Nosek.

Braden Holtby was out of position and all alone. It didn’t matter. In the most iconic moment of the finals, the goalie stretched to his right and shoved his stick in front of Alex Tuch’s point-blank shot. “The Save” protected a 3-2 lead that Brooks Orpik created with his first goal after a 220game drought.

Alex Ovechkin got the party started properly in Washington’s first-ever finals home victory. Grinding for position in front of the net early in a scoreless second, he was knocked off his feet while he backhanded in a rebound. Evgeny Kuznetsov added to the lead, and Devante Smith-Pelly sealed it with a third-period goal.

Crowds in and outside of Capital One Arena reached a fever pitch as T.J. Oshie scored on a power play, Wilson added a second goal and Smith-Pelly snuck in a third with 21 seconds left in the first period. John Carlson made it 4-0 in the second, and Kuznetsov matched a finals record with four assists.

The Caps’ most difficult win of the series was the sweetest. Vegas outhit the Caps 39-27 and held a 3-2 lead after a hectic second period that saw Nicklas Backstrom find Ovechkin for a vintage power-play goal. Smith-Pelly scored while falling to the ice to tie it in the third, and Lars Eller one-timed the winner. (EXPRESS)

NBA

Casey and Pistons agree to 5-year deal A month after being fired by the Raptors, Dwane Casey agreed Monday to a five-year deal to become coach of the Pistons, according to multiple sources who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team had not announced the move. ESPN first reported the news. Casey, 61, led Toronto to a franchise-record 59 wins this season and helped the Raptors earn the top seed in the Eastern Conference for the first time. The NBA coach of the year finalist was fired shortly after Toronto was swept by the Cavaliers. He had one year left on a three-year, $18 million extension. He was 320-238 in seven years and is Toronto’s winningest coach. Detroit fired Stan Van Gundy, coach for the past four years, in May. (AP)

Egypt’s Salah doubtful to start against Uruguay

Report: Angels fear Ohtani will require Tommy John

Mohamed Salah will be given until the last moment to prove he’s fit to play in Egypt’s World Cup opener against Uruguay on Friday. The star Liverpool striker who led the Champions League in scoring this season injured his left shoulder May 26 in the final against Real Madrid. “Maybe he could start on the bench, but a final decision has not been made yet,” the Pharaohs’ team doctor, Mohamed Abouelela,said Monday in Grozny, Russia. Salah jogged for about 30 minutes Monday as his teammates trained on the same pitch for the match in Ekaterinburg. (AP)

The Angels placed Shohei Ohtani on the disabled list Friday because of a Grade 2 sprain to his ulnar collateral ligament, saying they would re-evaluate him in three weeks. But the two-way sensation from Japan may not see the field until well after that. ESPN’s Pedro Gomez reported Sunday night that the Angels are worried that Ohtani’s UCL sprain has progressed to Grade 3, a full tear that would require ligamentreplacement surgery (the Tommy John procedure) and a long rehab. Ohtani is 4-1 with a 3.10 ERA and is hitting .289 with six homers and 20 RBIs. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Gruden praises Redskins’ culture

M E E T Y O U R D C P S C CO M M I S S I O N E R S

Coach lauds leadership of veterans in last week before summer break

Commissioner Willie L. Phillips NICK WASS (AP)

NFL The Redskins open mandatory veteran minicamp today with a three-day workout before taking a six-week break leading up to the start of training camp July 26 in Richmond. The organized team activities portion of the offseason program was successful, by all accounts, as newcomers such as quarterback Alex Smith were introduced to the system and the team stayed healthy. There was little drama with the majority of the team present. There were no issues with second-round pick Derrius Guice, a running back who is fast becoming a fan favorite after rumors of character concerns caused him to slip to No. 59 overall in April’s draft despite receiving firstround grades from many experts. One absentee was starting inside linebacker Zach Brown, who missed early parts of the OTAs because he was moving, coach Jay Gruden said. Brown tweeted the move was complete May 31, and the team’s website posted a picture of him participating June 5. He was absent for a voluntary practice June 6.

Coach Jay Gruden says he no longer has to micromanage every aspect of the locker room.

Smith, 34, said this is the most he’s gotten out of OTAs in his career. New wideout Paul Richardson emphasized that teammates have helped each other despite competing for the same position. Gruden credited veterans including linebacker Ryan Kerrigan, defensive lineman Ziggy Hood and guard Brandon Scherff for their leadership. Gruden said the team’s culture has “evolved� since he took over in 2014. “One thing as a coach you don’t want to have to worry about is ... micromanaging every detail about meetings and what’s going on in the locker room,� he said. “We have a great group of guys that are tight-knit, and they work extremely hard.� KAREEM COPELAND (THE WASHINGTON POST)

STUDIES SHOW ...

AMANDA SENIOR (WANDERLUST VIA AP)

Exercise, meditation for trauma

Wellness tourism has branched out to cruises, music festivals and even gyms.

Traveling for wellness For some, fitness has become the reason for taking vacations TRENDS It’s one thing when hotels open fitness centers, but quite another when fitness centers open hotels. Luxe gym Equinox is opening a hotel in New York’s new Hudson Yards neighborhood next year in a move that embodies the evolution of wellness travel. Most hotels have beefed up fitness options, but wellness travel has become much more than just keeping fit while on the road. It’s become the point of the journey. And it’s bringing in big dollars. Whether foraging for medicinal herbs in Peru, cycling across the California coastline or spending several thousand dollars to workout alongside celeb trainer

Tracy Anderson in Aspen, Colo., wellness tourists made 691 million trips in 2015, according to the Global Wellness Institute. In the past, wellness vacations straddled between starvationstyle boot camps or relaxing spa weekends to “detox” from an unhealthy lifestyle. But as self-care has evolved into a daily goal, it’s found an obvious match in travel. International and domestic wellness tourism brought in $563 billion in 2015, up from $489 billion in 2013, according to the Global Wellness Institute. Wellness travel is expected to grow to $808 billion by 2020. “[Fitness has] gone from being an activity to now it’s a destination. It’s a purpose,” said Marshal Cohen, an analyst for the trend group NPD. “That’s a huge shift in spending.” Curtain Bluff resort in Antigua launched a new wellness

concierge where guests can meet with the team at no extra charge to design their own fitness program, including everything from Zumba to Pilates. Amanpuri’s resort in Phuket, Thailand, created four wellness immersions, where guests can focus on fitness, weight loss, digestive “cleanses” or mental awareness. The trend is even spilling over to cruises, once stereotyped as weight-gaining vacations with bottomless buffets. Now, wellness can be the point of the cruise. Holland America Line, in partnership with O, The Oprah Magazine, has programs for meditation and healthy living. Cruise passengers can also combine wellness with sightseeing in ports of call. Take a shore excursion on a Regents Seven Seas cruise, for example, and you might end up doing yoga

on a coconut plantation in Ko Samui, Thailand, or outdoor tai chi in Marseille, France. Savvy athleisure retailers are also seizing on it. Lululemon and Free People, a bohemian line popular with yogis, have both branched into wellness tourism. rism. Free People’s retreats started ted a few years ago; participants s can exercise and try journaling ng or tarot card workshops in spots like Glacier National Park.. Wellness has even spread ad to music festivals. The Wanderlust erlust festivals across North America erica include activities like yoga a and spinning. Meghan Aftosmis, 36, loved oved Wanderlust’s Vermont event nt so much last year that she’s heading back later this month. h. “It comes down to having an experixperience and especially in the sumures.” mer I look for new adventures.”

A study found that combining meditation and aerobic exercise could help women who have suffered from sexual violence recover from trauma. A team at Rutgers University divided 105 subjects into four groups. One did no training, one did meditation, one did 30 minutes of treadmill or elliptical workouts or an aerobics class, and one did both exercise and meditation. Sessions were held twice a week for six weeks. The study, published in Frontiers in Neuroscience, found that meditation and exercise were more effective when combined. “Women with a history of sexual violence reported … fewer trauma-related thoughts, and a 30 percent increase in selfself worth,” author Tracey Shors says.

Is my sister’s job really a snow job?

It’s OK to be nosy.

Q. I have reason to believe that my sister is not really working, though she claims she is. She’s done a few courses at community college but never really follows through and is living with our parents. She worked retail for a while but is now just really vague about it. My parents have her being employed as a condition of living there, and I think she’s lying to them. SUSPICIOUS We all have a right to be vague about our jobs at times, right? (Hey, no need to know what really happens when the soup gets sent back.) Unless your parents have specifically anointed you the officer in charge of checking your sister’s employment records, or at the very least asked your opinion, then I’m not seeing a compelling reason for you to intervene. Why not start a real conversation with her?

Big-name sightings, breakups and makeups.

And instead of framing it as an investigation, view it as an opportunity for you to understand her better, and strengthen your relationship. How about a genuine “How are you doing? Tell me what’s going on in your life.� Not as a cover story to find out damning information, but as a real interest in listening. If she’s struggling enough to be lying about unemployment, she could likely use an ear.

You and your wife have to form a united front here, because standing together as a team for the sake of your child is Parenting 101. If you don’t set boundaries, your mother-in-law will continue to steamroll, undermining you both. So, crucial question: Does your wife just never outwardly object, or is she actually OK with this behavior? Getting her buy-in is imperative, so you need to know whether to start with her understanding how hurtful this behavior is to you both, or if she’s ready to get some help in being assertive with her mother (or at least allowing you to be her voice, in the beginning). Depending on her willingness to engage in this (no-doubt hairy) potential conflict, it may help to see a counselor — either together or her alone, since her mother’s probably been steamrolling her for decades.

Miranda is thinkin’ past tomorrow

STAGE Lin-Manuel Miranda is begging you. Don’t bug him about running for office. “Please don’t make me be in politics,” he says. “I’m asked all the time. And I say, ‘Please, no, please, don’t make me, please let me write songs.’ Listen, my dad’s in politics. If you were the butcher’s son, you’d be a little like, ‘I don’t need a steak for dinner,’ you know what I mean? I’m the butcher’s son.” Miranda comes across as an impeccable prospect for charming the electorate: affable, knowledgeable, photogenic. With his ever more aggressive use of the platform he’s been given to promote causes he believes in — like the March for Our Lives and relief for hurricanepummeled Puerto Rico — the questions about ambitions that might take him far afield of Broadway and Hollywood don’t seem so far-fetched. And with his masterstroke musical “Hamilton” taking its Washington bow today at the Kennedy Center, the 38-yearold’s ever-expanding sphere of interests seems a reasonable topic of inquiry. Just as

‘Hamilton’s’ rise from ‘mixtape’ to phenomenon May 12, 2009 Intrigue is ignited as writercomposer Lin-Manuel Miranda performs a number for an unwritten musical, “The Hamilton Mixtape,” during a poetry jam at the White House.

January 2015 CHRIS SORENSEN (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

As ‘Hamilton’ arrives in D.C., the show’s creator is ready for what’s next

“Hamilton” has reawakened the potential of musical theater as a dynamic cultural and sociopolitical force, so has its composer and original Broadway star wound up cultivating a role as a galvanizing whisperer into the national ear. As he puts it himself: “I’m a private citizen with a big megaphone.” Washington is a stop with personal meaning for the composer. Invited to a poetry slam at the Obama White House in 2009, Miranda publicly unveiled the first snippet of the musical there, performing the song that would become the show’s prologue. “I can still remember when I first met Lin-Manuel,” Michelle Obama says in a statement about their 2009 introduction. “Barack and I laughed, thinking he was joking. But then he actually got up there and did a rap about Alexander Hamilton — and he absolutely blew us away. When we congratulated him afterwards, he told us he was going to do a whole musical about Alexander Hamilton. Now, a single rap was one thing, but an entire musical? We basically told him, ‘OK, good luck with that,’ and figured that would be the last we heard of it.” But there’s a tricky part to the job of nurturing a long-running megahit: Is there a way to detach from it enough so that you can create other things equally as

satisfying? Miranda believes, of course, that he can. For Disney, he’s already finished shooting the sequel “Mary Poppins Returns” alongside Emily Blunt. And before Miranda tackles another musical, he says he’s writing “several things for movies first.” “I’ve always only wanted to do three things in my life: make up songs, act and make movies,” he says. “I’ve had a good deal of the

first two, and I want to use what I’ve learned from the first two to do the third. So I’m going to try that for a bit. But I have lots of ideas for the next stage piece. It’s a question of which one raises its hand. “And which one raises its hand with the relentlessness with which the ghost of Alexander Hamilton raised his hand — and wouldn’t leave me alone.” PETER MARKS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The three-hour “Hamilton” opens off-Broadway, at the Public Theater, to rapturous reviews and a clamor for tickets. Celebrity sightings in the audience and/or backstage become common.

July 2015 The show transfers to the Richard Rodgers Theatre on Broadway. “Ham4Ham” is launched as an event to give away $10 tickets, featuring performances by the cast outside the stage door.

April-June 2016 “Hamilton” claims the Pulitzer Prize for drama, then earns a record 16 Tony Award nominations — winning 11.

September 2016 Proving that the show’s appeal transcends its original cast, “Hamilton” begins an openended engagement in Chicago.

“This gaffe is probably the most honest thing ever said in the program’s history.” @ADAMCBEST, tweeting after “Fox & Friends” host Abby Huntsman

accidentally called President Trump a dictator on live TV on Sunday. Huntsman said of the meeting between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un: “Regardless of what happens in that meeting between the two dictators, what we are seeing right now, this is history.” Huntsman apologized for the mistake later in the show, and tweeted out an apology as well. “We all have slip ups in life, I have many :) now let’s all move on to things that actually matter,” she wrote.

I would like to thank my daughter Tiona Herring for being a beautiful person. I want to congratulate her on her accomplishments throughout her twelve years of school. She is the first of the Generation Z in my family to obtain an Associate’s Degree from an early college program at the George Washington University while obtaining her high school diploma from the School Without Walls on June 9, 2018. I am so proud of her and all of her accomplishments. I love her and wish her well in her endeavors to come.

“I am constantly inspired by Rachel Bloom.” @ITGETSBEDDER, applauding Rachel Bloom, the star of “Crazy

Ex-Girlfriend,” after her epic clapback to Neil Patrick Harris, who didn’t recognize her as the backstage host at the Tony Awards. Harris tweeted: “Who is the woman in the top hat backstage?” Bloom replied: “We’ve met numerous times and my husband, Dan Gregor, wrote for ‘How I Met Your Mother’ for 5 years.” Burn!

“The ‘whisper networks’ of women are regarded as vicious gossip, but the whisper networks of men ... are just regarded as natural discourse.” @STASSAEDWARDS, tweeting about

an investigation by Anna Merlan of Jezebel into Laura McGann’s claim that after she accused New York Times reporter Glenn Thrush of inappropriate conduct, she became the target of a smear campaign.

“Y’all ever crave a burger and think to yourself, ‘Man, IHOP is the move?’ No. And if you have, you’re ugly and you have a low credit score.”

stunt in which IHOP said it was changing its name to IHOb, with the “b” standing for burgers. It was all just a marketing campaign that succeeded in generating a lot of online buzz.

“80 percent of their customers are teenagers out late daring each other to do s---. They know their audience.” @JESSICAESQUIRE, tweeting about

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You may have to offer official denials to charges that are made against you. But there is likely no basis for the accusations. CANCER (June 21-July 22) What others think of you is likely to prove more important to you today than at any time in the recent past. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) What happens in the morning is likely to be reiterated during evening hours. You can spend the middle portion of the day weighing pros and cons. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You cannot deny what is undeniable. Instead, face what comes head-on, and be willing to make adjustments. MONDAY’S SOLUTION

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may

be looking for an “off ramp” of sorts today that will get you out of a tricky situation while allowing you to save face as well.

MONDAY’S SOLUTION

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may wonder at the progress another is making, when in fact you can make the same kind if you simply decide on the path to take. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Someone may be trying to organize some kind of opposition against you and what you are trying to do. You can fight back.

TODAY: Light winds from the east off the ocean keep it mostly cloudy and cooler than normal. But most of us should stay dry, since there’s no organized weather system to generate meaningful precipitation. Morning temperatures rise through the 60s. During the afternoon, highs reach the mid- to upper 70s.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) This is a good day to figure out just how your perceptions are different from those of friends and loved ones. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You don’t want anyone to lose confidence in you at this time, so be sure to put your best foot forward.

Kylie realizes people can see her Instagram Fans noticed that Kylie Jenner has deleted all photos of Stormi Webster’s face from Instagram when the reality star posted a selfie Sunday that kept her 4-month-old daughter mostly out of the frame. Responding to a comment noting that she “cut her baby out,” Jenner wrote, “Yeah I cut my baby out. I’m not sharing photos of my girl right now.” (EXPRESS)

Robert De Niro got the theater crowd on its feet Sunday night at the Tony Awards with a rousing introduction of his old friend Bruce Springsteen that was focused squarely elsewhere: on President Trump. De Niro, a staunch Trump opponent, dropped a couple of F-bombs heard clearly by the Radio City Music Hall crowd. The CBS television audience heard dead silence instead before he raised his arms — twice — and earned a sustained standing ovation. “Mr. De Niro’s comments were unscripted and unexpected,” a CBS representative said in a statement.
