Salvadoran refugee Maria del Carmen Guardado cooked tamales con pollo at Espita Mezcaleria on Tuesday night.

works flipping omelets at the Westin hotel in Ballston, Va., came to the United States through the Central American Minors refugee program, just months before it was terminated by the State Department. The young chef now has a green card.

She lives in Arlington with her father, Santiago Guardado, who arrived in the United States 18 years ago and had not seen his youngest daughter for more than a decade when she arrived in 2017.

When Guardado cooks Salvadoran food, she thinks of her first cooking instructor — her mother — who has not been able to enter the country. They speak by phone every two days, often for hours at a time.

On Tuesday, the majority of diners ordered the dishes marked “Chef Maria,” which in addition to the tamales, included refried beans and fried Yucca doughnuts paired with honey ice cream for dessert. Some guests came up to Guardado to shake her hand or ask for pictures.

Guardado’s father dug into plates of his daughter’s cooking, cleaning up bowls of tangy salsa with tortillas.

When asked what was his favorite dish, the deep lines in Guardado’s face spread into a wide grin. “That’s easy,” he said.

“The tamale.”

DINING Softening the masa, the dough made from ground corn, was the first step.

Maria del Carmen Guardado Martinez reached into the bowl, twisting dough into chunks and passing them to the cook next to her. The 22-year-old was preparing to serve as the guest star of the kitchen at Espita Mezcaleria.

She was using her mother’s recipe to make 200 Salvadoran tamales, and she was determined to get it right.

“It’s not like the Mexican one,” Guardado said in Spanish through a translator. “It’s not overpowering or bland, and it’s not too spicy. It’s soft. Just the right balance.”

Guardado, who came to the United States from El Salvador in 2017, is the youngest of five chefs participating in an inaugural dinner series organized by the group Tables Without Borders.

For one week, aspiring chefs from refugee communities across the Washington area are taking over the kitchens of popular District restaurants, offering diners a chance to sample food from their home countries.

Evans to leave Metro board

Resignation comes after ethics investigation revealed he ‘knowingly’ violated rules

expressline

Jack Evans, chair of the Metro board, resigned his seat on Thursday amid an ethics scandal.

Website shares genealogy story of local slaves

reported that Evans repeatedly offered to use his influence and connections to help clients of potential employers, the D.C. Council reprimanded Evans but did not pursue its own probe of his business ties and official actions.

D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, D, who has repeatedly defended Evans, was mum Thursday.

A federal grand jury is investigating Evans’ relationships with clients. He also faces a recall vote in his ward.

The resignation ended a fourday whirlwind of revelations that started when Clarence Crawford, the chairman of the ethics committee, said the committee found Evans committed a violation of Metro’s ethics code. The ethics chair also said Evans agreed not to seek reelection as board chair as part of closing the probe.

Evans initially insisted that the committee had cleared him of any violation, but reversed himself Wednesday night.

THE DISTRICT A genealogical organization launched a free website Wednesday to help those who want to learn more about the families of 272 African American slaves sold in 1838 for the benefit of the Jesuit college now called Georgetown University.

GU272.AmericanAncestors .org enables users to search for ancestors related to the enslaved people and hear about descendants’ experiences in 20th-century Louisiana and elsewhere.

The site grew out of a collaboration between American Ancestors, a Bostonbased nonprofit, and the Georgetown Memory Project, an independent initiative seeking to identify the people sold in 1838 and find their descendants.

The university has taken steps to acknowledge its connections to slavery, including a decision

by Maryland Jesuits to sell 272 enslaved African Americans to plantation owners in Louisiana. Two of Georgetown’s 19th-century presidents had a role in the sale, and proceeds were used to help the school pay off debts. The university also maintains a website exploring its connections to slavery.

The site’s debut coincided with Juneteenth, an annual holiday commemorating emancipation, and with the anniversary of a key document dated June 19, 1838, that spelled out terms of the sale.

JAHI CHIKWENDIU (THE WASHINGTON POST)

TRANSPORTATION Jack Evans said Thursday he will resign from the Metro board next week, after a legal memo became public saying he “knowingly” violated ethics rules to help friends and clients rather than serve the interests of the transit agency.

Evans announced his resignation in a letter to D.C. Council Chairman Phil Mendelson after four and a half years on the board, including three and a half as chairman.

He did not offer an explanation, but the decision came within hours after The Washington Post published a confidential 20-page memo from the outside law firm that investigated Evans for the board’s ethics committee.

It also came a day after Evans reversed himself and acknowledged that he had committed an ethics violation and agreed to step down as board chairman — though not previously from the board altogether — as a condition of ending the ethics probe.

“I’m proud of the work the Board has done to lead the agency through some of the most challenging years in its history — the system is in a better position today to serve riders,” Evans said in the letter.

“On June 27th, at the conclusion of my term as Chairman, I will resign from the Metro Board of Directors.”

Mendelson, D, accepted Evans’ resignation and declined to comment further. “The chairman believes Council member Evans chose the correct action,” Mendelson spokeswoman Lindsey Walton said.

Evans will leave in scandal, as the legal memo provides extensive detail about what it described as Evans’ multiple ethics violations. These included failures to disclose his consulting

and personal relationships, and to recuse himself from Metro “transactions, discussions and issues” where he had a potential conflict of interest.

“Our investigation uncovered a pattern of conduct in which Evans attempted to and did help his friends and clients and served their interests, rather than the interest of [the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority],” the memo said. “The evidence uncovered through our investigation demonstrates that Evans’ ethical violations occurred not by accident, but ‘knowingly.’ ” Evans “solicited and accepted money” from people who were “actual or potential WMATA vendors, with business interests that intersected with WMATA interests, and could be served by certain actions or decisions of WMATA or its Board,” the memo said.

Evans’ lawyer, Mark Tuohey, said earlier he had not seen the memo, but noted that the

Staying on D.C. Council Jack Evans resigned Thursday from the Metro board of directors, but he told WTOP he plans to stay on as Ward 2 member of the D.C. Council.

At-large council members Elissa Silverman and David Grosso on Thursday called for the council to investigate Evans’ conduct. Council Chair Phil Mendelson didn’t respond to those calls on Thursday. (EXPRESS)

four-member ethics committee concluded that Evans committed only a single violation, a failure to disclose a conflict of interest with Colonial Parking, a major District firm.

The information might not have become public had Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan, R, Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, D, and other officials from the two states not written to the ethics committee demanding that it disclose the results of its probe.

Supreme Court upholds cross on Md. public land COURTS A World War I memorial in the shape of a 40-foot-tall cross can continue to stand on public land in Maryland, the Supreme Court ruled Thursday in an important decision about the use of religious symbols in American life.

The justices, ruling 7-2 in favor of the cross’ backers, said preserving a long-standing religious monument is very different from allowing a new one. The court concluded that the nearly 100-year-old memorial’s presence on a highway median doesn’t violate the First Amendment’s establishment clause, which prohibits the government from favoring one religion over others.

Defenders of the Peace Cross in Bladensburg had argued that a ruling against them could doom other memorials with crosses.

“The cross is undoubtedly a Christian symbol, but that fact should not blind us to everything else that the Bladensburg Cross has come to represent,” Justice Samuel Alito wrote.

“For some, that monument is a symbolic resting place for ancestors who never returned home.

For others, it is a place for the community to gather and honor all veterans and their sacrifices to our Nation. For others still, it

is a historical landmark. …Destroying or defacing the Cross that has stood undisturbed for nearly a century would not be neutral and would not further the ideals of respect and tolerance embodied in the First Amendment,” he wrote.

Justices Stephen Breyer and Elena Kagan, both Jewish and liberal, joined their conservative colleagues in ruling for the cross.

Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who is also Jewish, dissented, with Ginsburg writing that Christianity’s main symbol “should not loom over public thoroughfares, suggesting

official recognition of that religion’s paramountcy.”

The cross’ challengers, including three area residents and the D.C.-based American Humanist Association, argued that the cross should be moved to private property or modified into a nonreligious monument.

Defenders included the American Legion, which raised money to build the monument honoring area residents who died in World War I; the Trump administration; and Maryland officials who took over maintenance of the cross nearly 60 years ago.

TRANSPORTATION E-scooter startup Skip is temporarily pulling its fleet from the District, Arlington and Alexandria, after the District Department of Transportation suspended its operations permit Wednesday in the wake of another fire involving its equipment and revelations of two previously undisclosed fires.

The action was prompted by a fire early Wednesday at the company’s D.C. warehouse, the second in a month involving Skip equipment in the city. Upon further investigation, DDOT officials said they learned Wednesday of two additional scooter fires, one in September and another in October. They notified Skip late Wednesday to remove its scooters from city streets within 24 hours.

“DDOT’s priority is to maintain the safety of the public space and will continue to monitor the situation over the coming days,” the city transportation agency said in a statement. “The suspension requires that all Skip branded vehicles are removed from the public space in the next 24 hours.”

Skip said it was complying with the city order to temporarily suspend service, but it expects to get its scooters back on D.C. streets soon.

“This was not an issue with scooters in the field, either deployed or charging,” Skip said in a message to riders Wednesday.

“We are fully cooperating with authorities to ensure a speedy and responsible return to DC.” Skip’s permit allows it to deploy up to 720 scooters in the city, but it’s unclear how many the company has in service. The company

started the year with a permit that allowed 600, but it was granted an expansion of 120 in April.

Officials in Arlington and Alexandria, where Skip also operates, said the company was in the process of removing the devices from their jurisdictions Thursday. In San Francisco — the only other market where Skip operates — officials with the San Francisco Municipal Transportation Agency said the company notified them of the issues in D.C. “We will closely monitor the situation as we move forward with our program here in San Francisco,” SFMTA spokesman Paul Rose said.

Eric Balliet, an Arlington County spokesman, said once the scooters “are corrected” the county will have to review and

reapprove the company’s participation in its scooter program.

Alexandria spokeswoman Sarah Godfrey said the city will review its agreement with the company once it is ready to redeploy.

Skip pulled its scooters from D.C. streets for a few days after a scooter burst into flames downtown on May 30, but it resumed operations June 6. While the cause of that fire was not identified, D.C. officials said Tuesday the scooters had been outfitted with additional safety features.

The fire early Wednesday at the company’s D.C. warehouse renewed the concerns about the safety of the devices that have become a popular option for commuters and tourists to get around the city. LUZ LAZO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Senate blocks Saudi arm sale President Trump says he will veto measures to stop weapon deals POLITICS The Senate has voted to block the Trump administration from selling arms to Saudi Arabia, launching a new challenge to President Trump’s alliance with the country amid rising tensions in the Middle East.

Trump has promised to veto the measures. The White House said stopping the sales “would send a message that the United States is abandoning its partners and allies at the very moment when threats to them are increasing.”

While all the resolutions of

disapproval are likely to pass the House, supporters fell well short of a veto-proof margin. Two of the resolutions passed with 53 votes, while another group was approved narrowly, with 51 votes.

Overturning a veto requires a two-thirds majority in both the House and Senate.

Overall, there were 22 resolutions, one for each of the individual sales. But most of the resolutions were considered as a package to avoid tying up the Senate with lengthy debates over each of them.

Seven Republicans broke with Trump to reject at least some of the arms sales: Sens.

“To reject these sales at this time and under these circumstances is to reward recent Iranian aggression and to encourage further Iranian escalation,” said Sen. Jim Risch of Idaho, the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Risch added that blocking the sale would also “encourage miscalculation on the part of Iranians which will be disastrous.”

The arms sales, worth an estimated $8 billion, included precision guided munitions, other bombs and ammunition and aircraft maintenance support.

Police Commissioner Richard Ross said 72 officers have been taken off the streets — the most ever at one time — because of Facebook posts.

Officers pulled over racist posts Philadelphia has taken “[The posts] will 72 police off the streets undeniably impact for offensive messages police-community relations.”

PHILADELPHIA The Philadelphia Police Department has placed 72 officers on desk duty, and some are likely to be fired, the police commissioner said Wednesday, amid an investigation into racist or otherwise offensive Facebook posts by the city’s officers.

Commissioner Richard Ross said that he expected at least “several dozen” of the officers to be disciplined and others fired after a review of their posts, which will be conducted by an independent law firm. He said the department had never in his memory taken so many officers off the street at once.

“We’ve talked about from the outset how disturbing, how disappointing and upsetting these posts are,” Ross told reporters.

“They will undeniably impact police-community relations.”

Iran downs U.S. drone

US DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)

MIDDLE EAST President Trump declared Thursday that “Iran made a very big mistake” by shooting down a U.S. surveillance drone over the Strait of Hormuz but suggested it was a foolish error rather than an intentional escalation of the tensions that have led to rising fears of open military conflict.

Asked about a U.S. response, the president said pointedly, “You’ll soon find out.”

The downing of the huge, unmanned aircraft, which Iran portrayed as a deliberate defense of its territory rather than a mistake, was a stark reminder of the risk of military conflict between U.S. and Iranian forces as the Trump administration combines a “maximum pressure” campaign of economic sanctions against Iran with a buildup of American forces in the region.

On Thursday, Iran called the sanctions “economic terrorism,” insisted the drone had invaded its airspace and said it was taking its case to the United Nations in an effort to prove the U.S. was lying about the aircraft being over international waters. It accused the U.S. of “a very dangerous and provocative act.”

The drone — which has a wingspan wider than a Boeing 737 — entered Iranian airspace “despite repeated radio warnings” and was shot down by Iran, acting under the U.N. Charter, which allows self-defense action “if an armed attack occurs,” said Iran’s U.N. Ambassador Majid Takht Ravanchi.

The Revolutionary Guard’s chief commander, Gen. Hossein Salami, called the downing of the drone “a clear message to America” in a televised address.

“Iran is not seeking war with any country, but we are fully prepared to defend Iran,” he said.

U.S. AIR FORCE VIA AP

Revolutionary Guard chief calls the action a ‘clear message’ to the United States

On Thursday, Iran’s Revolutionary Guard shot down a U.S. RQ-4 Global Hawk drone, like the one above. Below, a video frame shows what the Pentagon says is a smoke trail that was left after the drone was shot down.

Trump, who has said he wants to avoid war and negotiate with Iran over its nuclear ambitions, appeared to play down the significance of the shootdown.

While meeting with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, Trump said: “I find it hard to believe it was intentional, if you want to know the truth. I think that it could have been somebody who was loose and stupid that did it.”

He cast it as “a new wrinkle ... a new fly in the ointment.”

Yet he also said that “this

country will not stand for it, that I can tell you.”

Trump said the American drone was unarmed and unmanned and “clearly over international waters.”

Air Force Lt. Gen. Joseph Guastella, commander of U.S. Central Command air forces in the region, took a more pointed view of the shootdown in an area where Trump has blamed Iran for attacking shipping vessels.

“This attack is an attempt to disrupt our ability to monitor the area following recent threats to

international shipping and free flow of commerce,” he said.

The Trump administration has been putting increasing economic pressure on Iran for more than a year. It reinstated punishing sanctions following Trump’s decision to pull the U.S. out of an international agreement intended to limit Iran’s nuclear program in exchange for relief from earlier sanctions.

The other world powers that remain signed on to the nuclear deal have set a meeting for June 28 to discuss the U.S. withdrawal and Iran’s announced plans to increase its uranium stockpile.

Citing Iranian threats, the U.S. recently sent an aircraft carrier to the Persian Gulf region and deployed additional troops alongside the tens of thousands already there. All this has raised fears that a miscalculation or further rise in tensions could push the U.S. and Iran into an open conflict 40 years after Tehran’s Islamic Revolution.

Congressional leaders came to the White House for a briefing in the Situation Room late Thursday with top national security officials including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, CIA Director Gina Haspel, Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Joseph Dunford, acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan and Army Secretary Mark Esper, whom Trump has said he’ll nominate as Pentagon chief.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said she didn’t think Trump wanted war with Iran and the American people have “no appetite” for it either.

Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina called Iran a “murderous regime” and said, “If they’re itching for a fight they’re going to get one.”

Mobile tech is making young people ‘horny’ Mobile devices have transformed the way we live. They also appear to be altering our bodies.

New research in biomechanics suggests young people are developing hornlike spikes at the back of their skulls — bone spurs caused by the forward tilt of the head, which shifts weight from the spine to the muscles at the back of the head, causing bone growth in the connecting tendons and ligaments.

The result is a hook or hornlike feature jutting out from the skull, just above the neck.

In academic papers, a pair of researchers at the University of the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, Australia, argues that the prevalence of the bone growth in younger adults points to shifting body posture brought about by the use of modern technology. They say smartphones and other handheld devices are contorting the human form, requiring users to bend their heads forward to make sense of what’s happening on the miniature screens.

The researchers said their discovery marks the first documentation of a physiological or skeletal adaptation to the penetration of advanced technology into everyday life.

The study came out last year but has received fresh attention since the publication last week of a BBC story on “How modern life is transforming the human skeleton.” ISAAC STANLEY-BECKER

A new ‘level of inhumanity’ Lawyers cite dangerous conditions at Texas site detaining migrant kids

Gee whiz: Wash. waste confirms pot use is up

CEDAR ATTANASIO (AP)

EL PASO, TEXAS A legal team that recently interviewed over 60 children at a Border Patrol station in Texas says a traumatic and dangerous situation is unfolding for some 250 infants, children and teens locked up for up to 27 days without adequate food, water and sanitation.

A team of attorneys who recently visited the facility near El Paso told The Associated Press that three girls, ages 10 to 15, said they had been taking turns keeping watch over a sick 2-yearold boy because there was no one else to look after him.

When the lawyers saw the 2-year-old boy, he wasn’t wearing a diaper and had wet his pants, and his shirt was smeared in mucus. They said at least 15 children at the facility had the flu, and some were kept in medical quarantine. Children told lawyers that they were fed uncooked frozen food or rice and had gone weeks without bathing or a clean change of clothes at the facility in Clint, in the desert scrubland some 25 miles southeast of El Paso.

“In my 22 years of doing visits with children in detention I have never heard of this level of inhumanity,” said Holly Cooper, an attorney who represents detained youth. “Seeing our country at this crucible moment where we have forsaken children and failed

Customs and Border Protection has said in recent weeks that it is overwhelmed and needs more money and help from Congress.

to see them as human is hopefully a wake up for this country to move toward change.”

The lawyers visited the facility in Clint because they are involved in a legal settlement known as the Flores agreement that governs detention conditions for migrant children and families. The lawyers negotiated access to the facility with officials, and say Border Patrol knew the dates of their visit three weeks

in advance.

Many children the lawyers interviewed had arrived alone at the U.S.-Mexico border, but some of the kids had been separated from adult caregivers such as aunts and uncles, the attorneys said. Government rules call for the children to be held by the Border Patrol for no longer than 72 hours before they are transferred to the custody of Health and Human Services, which

houses migrant youth in facilities around the country.

But many children interviewed by the lawyers said they were kept inside the facility near El Paso beyond 72 hours.

Customs and Border Protection did not immediately respond to the allegations about the conditions, but has said in recent weeks that it is overwhelmed and needs more money and help from the gridlocked Congress.

The Trump administration has been scrambling to find new space to hold immigrants as it faces withering criticism from Democrats that it’s violating the human rights of migrant children by keeping so many of them detained.

HEALTH The proof is in the pee.

A federally funded study has confirmed, not surprisingly, that marijuana use went up in Washington state after its first legal pot stores opened in 2014.

In fact, consumption appeared to double, at least in one major city, over three years — a conclusion scientists reached by way of the unglamorous work of analyzing raw sewage from Tacoma, a city whose drug-use trends tend to mirror those of Seattle.

They were looking for THCCOOH, a substance produced when the body metabolizes THC, the main ingredient in marijuana that gets you high. THC-COOH is excreted mostly in people’s urine.

Their findings: Consumption of THC doubled from December 2013 to December 2016.

The researchers said they can’t tell whether the increase means more people are using weed or the same old users are consuming more of it. Another possible explanation is that the marijuana, edible treats and extracts sold legally in stores are more potent than what was commonly available on the black market.

One of the study’s authors, Caleb Banta-Green of the University of Washington’s Alcohol and Drug Abuse Institute, said his best guess is that much of the increase can be attributed to that last possibility.

Pot these days? “It’s not your grandmother’s marijuana,” he said. GENE JOHNSON (AP)

Americans vindicated

Three years after Olympic fall, U.S. vanquishes Sweden in seventh straight shutout UNITED STATES 2, SWEDEN 0 With a 2-0 victory over Sweden on Thursday in Le Havre, France, the top-ranked Americans finished group play with a perfect mark for the first time since 2003. They also set a Women’s World Cup record of 18 goals without conceding a goal, the first time that has happened in their decorated history.

The United States (3-0) will next face Spain on Monday in Reims in the round of 16 match.

In a friendly early this year, the United States defeated the No. 13 Spaniards, 1-0, in Alicante, Spain. A victory would likely set up a showdown with third-ranked France in the quarterfinals.

Sweden (2-1) finished second in the group and will play Canada on Monday in Paris.

Any suggestions coach Jill Ellis’ squad would try to manipulate the path to the July 7 final by finishing second in Group F — thus avoiding France — were put to rest with a top-choice starting lineup and an early goal.

forced by Tobin Heath’s mesmerizing footwork, helped avenge a penalty-kick defeat to Sweden in the 2016 Olympic quarterfinals.

The United States extended its 2019 winning streak to nine and shutout run to seven.

overlooking them and of their success over the years in the rivalry.

The Americans, however, were fast and fluid, forcing Sweden to chase. Opportunities opened quickly.

The Swedes had been wary of U.S. set pieces, with coach Peter Gerhardsson saying a day earlier that Ellis had the “thickest binder in the world” of designed plays.

Sweden, though, is far better than the previous U.S. opponents, and when the Americans were sloppy with their passes in their own end, the Swedes turned opportunity into threats.

Goalkeeper Alyssa Naeher, untested in the first two outings, made routine saves on unimaginative shots. Her defenders were sound under pressure, limiting genuine chances in the penalty area. Crystal Dunn made several critical tackles.

At the start of the second half, Carli Lloyd replaced Alex Morgan at center forward. Morgan had appeared to hurt her knee late in the first half, though she remained in the match.

Nats to extend netting almost to the foul poles Team says it will install a more transparent material to protect fans MLB The Nationals will extend netting almost all the way to the right and left field foul poles, the organization announced Thursday, becoming the latest team to take additional safety measures for fans.

Extended netting will be installed at Nationals Park during the All-Star break July 8-10, the team said. This comes just a few weeks after a 4-year-old girl was struck by a foul ball during a Cubs-Astros game in Houston. That sparked a

national conversation about protective netting, and debates over whether extending it would disrupt the fans’ viewing.

The White Sox this week became the first franchise to announce plans to extend their netting beyond the dugouts.

Nationals managing principal owner Mark Lerner said he was affected by the scene in Houston when the Cubs’ Albert Almora fouled a ball that hit the girl.

“I can’t imagine what her parents must have felt in that moment,” Lerner wrote in a letter to fans on the team website Thursday. “And to see the raw emotion and concern from Albert Almora Jr. was heartbreaking. Further extending the netting at Nationals

Park will provide additional protection for our fans.”

Ultra Cross Knotless Dyneema netting will replace what’s currently there — netting that goes about halfway up each foul line — and the Nationals say this will offer a “higher degree of transparency” than the existing setup.

Thursday’s news release also noted that the netting will have certain sections, particularly above each dugout, that can be raised pregame so players and fans can interact. Players occasionally sign autographs in those areas by tossing balls up from the dugout and into the first row.

The Nationals say that these increased safety measures will not change that. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The earned run average Max Scherzer compiled in his last six starts, including Wednesday night when he pitched seven scoreless innings with a black eye and a broken nose in a 2-0 Nats win over Philadelphia to sweep a doubleheader. He allowed just four hits and two walks while striking out 10.

“It really is one of the most impressive things I’ve seen in a while,” said second baseman Brian Dozier, who homered in both games. Scherzer was hurt while trying to bunt in batting practice Tuesday. (TWP) Nationals-Phillies ended after Express’ deadline

Three-time Grand Slam champ Andy Murray returned to competitive tennis Thursday after five months away, combining with Feliciano Lopez to beat top-seeded Juan Sebastian Cabal and Robert Farah in doubles at the Queen’s Club in London. Murray, 32, was taking the first steps of his tentative comeback from what he hopes was career-saving hip surgery 143 days ago. He broke down in tears at the Australian Open in January, saying he was planning to retire after Wimbledon because of the pain he felt on a daily basis. (AP)

The Nationals are the second MLB franchise this week to announce that they will expand safety netting.

“I don’t know that we’re ever not in an all-in situation. We view ourselves as a contender for the Cup and we want to put the best team forward and make the best decisions to do that.”

Major League Baseball has given the Tampa Bay Rays the OK to look into playing a split season in Montreal. Commissioner Rob Manfred made the announcement Thursday at the owners’ meetings. There is no timetable for the possible plan.

An idea under consideration is for the Rays to play early in the season in its home park in St. Petersburg, Fla., and later in Montreal. Tampa Bay is averaging 14,546 fans per home game, ahead of only the Marlins. In their last two seasons before moving to Washington and becoming the Nationals, the Expos played 22 games per year in San Juan, Puerto Rico. (AP)

Woody tries to get Forky to embrace being a toy, and to hang on to the merchandising rights.

Playtime is so not over

‘Toy Story 4’ is a fresh, dazzling mix of old and new — and Forky’s a jolly good fellow

FILM REVIEW A visually dazzling concoction of wily schemes and daring adventures, “Toy Story 4” achieves something that eludes most sequels: a near-perfect balance between familiarity and novelty, action and emotion, and joyful hellos and bittersweet goodbyes.

At the end of the last installment, Sheriff Woody, Buzz Lightyear and their fellow toys were donated by Andy, their original owner, to a little girl named Bonnie. After a brief flashback, “Toy Story 4” gets underway on Bonnie’s kindergarten orientation day, when Woody (voice of Tom Hanks) sneaks into her backpack for moral support.

After Woody throws some detritus on her table to help with a crafts project, Bonnie fixes up an instant friend made out of a spork, a pipe cleaner and a Popsicle stick: Meet Forky, an anxious, googly-eyed introvert voiced to neurotic perfection by Tony Hale.

It’s during Bonnie’s last summer trip — to an RV camp alongside a traveling carnival — that

Woody meets up with Gabby Gabby and one of her dummy henchmen.

“Toy Story 4” really takes off.

As Forky tries to escape his new owner’s affectionate clutches, Woody tutors the newcomer in proper toy comportment. When Woody spies his old friend Bo Peep’s lamp in the window of an antiques store, he and Forky embark on a perilous attempt to find Bo among the shop’s gadgets, gewgaws and vintage playthings. Among them is Gabby Gabby (Christina Hendricks) — a Chatty Cathy-type baby doll with a creepy hidden agenda — and her henchmen: a group of villainous ventriloquist dummies.

Of course, the plot isn’t really

“Kingsman” prequel titled “The King’s Man”

‘Toy Story 4’ (G, 100 min.)

DIRECTOR: Josh Cooley STARS: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen, Annie Potts, Tony Hale, Don Rickles IN A NUTSHELL: When little Bonnie takes the whole gang of toys on her family’s road trip, Woody ends up on an unexpected detour in this followup to 2010’s “Toy Story 3.”

the point in “Toy Story 4,” which hews to its tried-and-true formula of mishap/crazy plan/unlikely success/life lesson. It’s the way that the Pixar filmmakers, led by director Josh Cooley, use

that template to come up with something fresh, funny and meaningful. The resolutely handmade Forky might be the MVP this time out, but “Toy Story 4” is full of fabulous new characters, including a couple of streetwise plushies voiced by Jordan Peele and Keegan-Michael Key, and Duke Caboom, a motorcycledriving action figure voiced

by Keanu Reeves. While it’s wonderful to hear Hanks, Tim Allen and Annie Potts reprise their roles as Woody, Buzz and Bo, the filmmakers never pander to nostalgia for its own sake, ensuring that “Toy Story 4” will be as enjoyable to newbies as to the most sentimental superfans.

Fair warning: Things get a bit dark as Gabby’s intentions become unnervingly clear. But never for too long, and often the edgiest material is tinged with knowing humor (especially when it involves Key and Peele’s characters). As an ode to spunk, ingenuity, teamwork, storytelling and animation artistry, “Toy Story 4” fires on every spirited cylinder.

WALT DISNEY PICTURES/PIXAR ANIMATION STUDIO PHOTOS

THE NEXT CHAPTER

How Woody was lassoed back for ‘4’ Pixar’s Josh Cooley knew fans would ask the question. He had asked it himself: Should there be a “Toy Story 4”? “Why are we even doing this? The trilogy is complete — it feels like the end,” says Cooley, the director of the fourth installment. Yet that view was centered on Andy, the boy turned college student who, at the end of “Toy Story 3,” gave his gang of toys to the young girl Bonnie.

“But that’s not the end of Woody’s story,” Cooley says. “There was more to tell of him to complete his arc.” “Toy Story 4” tackles Woody’s challenge of being in a new environment, and finding his next sense of purpose. “This is a movie about second chances and learning to let go of the past, which is hard for Woody,” producer Jonas Rivera says. “That seems like a human truth, so it felt like a movie worth making.” MICHAEL CAVNA (TWP)

Fishing for a connection

‘Being Frank’ struggles to tug at heartstrings or land its cheap laughs

‘The Proposal’ Unrated, 83 min.

Don’t worry: Logan Miller, left, is just as perplexed by Jim Gaffigan’s “Being Frank” fishing outfit as you are.

family, and that his crush is his half sister.

What to do after such betrayal?

In the absurd world of “Being Frank,” the natural response is extortion: Philip promises to keep his father’s secret, but only if Dad will send him to NYU. The game of deception that ensues is one that has fueled comedy for centuries: Frank tries to pass Philip off as the son of his best friend. And Kelly, feeling a connection to Philip, starts to pursue him romantically.

Such entanglements could have been the basis for an awkward black comedy, or maybe even an effective family drama.

But the film — much like its ambivalent protagonist — never really picks a side, at least not

‘Being Frank’ (R, 110 min.)

DIRECTOR: Miranda Bailey STARS: Jim Gaffigan, Logan Miller, Samantha Mathis, Alex Karpovsky IN A NUTSHELL: An emotionally distant father hiding a second family scrambles to keep his secret under wraps after his teenage son stumbles upon the truth.

convincingly. In what passes for irony, Frank and Philip actually grow closer as they become co-conspirators, developing a relationship that becomes the film’s core strength. Gaffigan and Miller have a nice rapport as their bond develops, but their individual performances aren’t strong enough to overcome the

film’s uneven tone.

Originally titled “You Can Choose Your Family,” an earlier version of the screenplay had been set in the present day. But Bailey moved the action to the early 1990s, a time when her own father left her family. That personal connection to the material comes through only intermittently, in the film’s more serious — and successful — moments.

The fact that Frank runs a ketchup company turns out to be oddly apt. “Being Frank” feels more like a condiment than a main dish. There might be a decent movie somewhere under all this nonsense, but the cheap laughs overwhelm this “Frank’s” more subtle flavors.

“The Proposal” is an odd, fascinating documentary by conceptual artist Jill Magid that revolves around the professional archive of the late Luis Barragán, one of Mexico’s greatest architects. The film traces the efforts of Magid, a passionate fan of Barragán’s work, to get access to the archive, or, more critically, have it returned to Mexico, where many feel it rightfully belongs. Who should have access to an artist’s legacy? That’s only one of many good questions raised in this mesmerizing exercise in artistic interrogation.

THE FILM ARCADE

FILM REVIEW You can’t choose your family.

Or can you?

That’s the question raised by “Being Frank,” a domestic comedy by Miranda Bailey, whose résumé as a producer boasts such quirky indie hits as “Swiss Army Man” and “The Diary of a Teenage Girl.” Unfortunately, in the filmmaker’s narrative-feature debut, she takes the theme of betrayal and turns it into fodder for a sitcom, and not a particularly funny one at that.

Philip (Logan Miller of “Love, Simon”) is a high school senior who’s just been accepted by New York University, and who is eager to escape his small town. But his father, Frank (Jim Gaffigan), wants him to stay closer to home and attend an in-state school. On top of that, Frank doesn’t want his son to attend the lakeside festival where high schoolers gather for spring break.

Frank is an emotionally — and literally — distant father, taking frequent work trips in the course of his job as an executive at a ketchup plant. Frustrated, Philip defies his father’s wishes and goes to the lake anyway, accompanied by his best friend Lewis (Daniel Rashid). But after hitting on a cute girl named Kelly (Isabelle Phillips), Philip spots Frank nearby. To his horror, he learns that Dad has a second home, a second wife and a second

‘In the Aisles’ Unrated, 125 min.

The bleakly beautiful “In the Aisles” centers on two night-shift workers in a Costco-like store in the former East Germany: Christian (Franz Rogowski), a taciturn forklift trainee, and Marion (Sandra Hüller), a flirty and, as it turns out, unhappily married stock clerk. Their relationship, as tentative and odd as it is, somehow works, giving the movie a momentum it needs. But shots of loading docks, empty parking lots and lonely vistas of desolate store aisles slow the narrative, at times, to a sleepy crawl. M.O,

SUMMARY: Danny Torrance (Ewan McGregor) is all grown up and — surprise! — he’s not doing so great. It turns out surviving your father’s murderous rampage at a haunted hotel leads to lasting trauma. Our first look at the “Shining” sequel, based on Stephen King’s 2013 novel, promises plenty of callbacks to Stanley Kubrick’s classic film. THOMAS FLOYD (EXPRESS)

SUMMARY: Samara Weaving plays a bride who, on her wedding night, is asked to play a game of hide and seek before officially joining her husband’s filthy rich family. It’s a harmless enough tradition, until she realizes it involves a surprising amount of murder (which the red band trailer highlights in appropriately gratuitous fashion). T.F.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You enjoy remembering a past success, but you mustn’t let that keep you from embarking on something new today. The odds are with you.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You receive news today that allows you to put into place a missing puzzle piece — and that, in turn, allows you to move forward confidently.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You have several skills that should come in handy today — if you choose to step out of your comfort zone and address a challenge.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A period of stillness and quiet is welcome to you today, but it’s not likely to last long. You must be ready to swing into action.

Fill in each column, row and 3x3 box with the digits 1 through 9 without repeating any. The twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that appear in the overlapping boxes must work for both puzzles.

A piece of advice to get you started: Don’t focus on completing one grid at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as you go, because filling in a number in one grid could give you clues to another.

“I think it was clearly a fact. Harry was constantly crushing on Draco.

He just couldn’t hide it.”

Kensington Palace announced Thursday that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will be starting their own foundation to support their charitable endeavors, formally spinning off from the entity Harry and Prince William established together a decade ago. William and Kate Middleton will remain with the original charity. The decision to break away from the Royal Foundation is seen as the final step in the division of the couples’ public duties and comes following the conclusion of a review into its structure.

“These changes are designed to best complement the work and responsibilities of Their Royal Highnesses as they prepare for their future roles,” the palace statement said. A name has not yet been chosen for the new foundation. (AP)
