‘Wouldn’t it be funny if people could hear us right now?’
An auction company has sold an electronic road sign that was drawing attention in Michigan for its slogan. The auction company, 1Bid.us, has had the sign that says “DRINK MORE BEER” on its property in Frankenlust Township for about a week. Around 100 people wanted to take a picture beside the sign. A few people called to complain about the sign’s message. The company sold the sign for about $600 this week. (AP)
Winnipeg, Canada, police have apologized and launched an investigation after officers flying in a helicopter mistakenly broadcast a cockpit conversation. Police said three officers were on patrol Monday night when they inadvertently turned on the chopper’s public address system. They didn’t know people below could hear their workplace chatter, which witnesses said ranged from swearing to talking about money and sex. (AP)
Parents and children set to watch Disney’s “Inside Out” got a jolt last weekend when a horror movie came on the Middletown, Ohio, screen instead.

The cinema’s site calls the “Insidious” movie “a chilling prequel” with violence and frightening images. (AP)

page three Trying the bites at D.C.’s museums
THE DISTRICT
Kennedy Center hires London arts director
We’ve all been there. “There” meaning mouth agape, entranced by the Museum of Natural History’s 45-foot model of a whale hanging overhead, only to have our reverie interrupted by a less exciting reminder of our mortality: a growling stomach. At this point, our options are: Step into the sweltering heat and make a sweat-stained purchase from one of the outdoor kiosks; continue on to the Hall of Human Origins, where the skeletons will remind you how hungry you are; or treat yo’self to a meal from the museum restaurant, provided for your convenience at a price twice that of your average meal. Before you choose the latter, here’s the scoop on the food at five storied Washington institutions. YANAN WANG (THE WASHINGTON POST) Mezzanine Cafe at the National Museum of Women in the Arts
Stars and Stripes Cafe at the National Museum of American History
1250 New York Ave. NW
14th Street and Constitution Avenue NW
This museum highlights female artists on the national stage. The museum’s Mezzanine Cafe hosts pop-ups: The current restaurant, Dirty South Deli, features a menu honoring men — fictional men, at that. Once you get past the cognitive dissonance, though, dining at the Mezzanine can be quite the enjoyable experience. Seated on the balcony facing the museum’s iridescent chandeliers, you feel like the matriarch of a grand estate.
As with most of the “cafes,” Stars and Stripes is really a cafeteria — fitting, because there are few things more American than plastic trays and the high school politics of finding somewhere to sit. Also very American: groups of school children waiting for cheeseburgers; families of every color carrying bowls of potato salad; and a menu that hits all the national staples and a few regional specialties, like Wisconsin-style fried cheese curds.
Atrium Cafe at the National Museum of Natural History
McDonald’s at the National Air and Space Museum
10th Street and Constitution Avenue NW
600 Independence Ave. SW
Underneath a ceiling dome that evokes both a tree canopy and a turtle shell, the cartoon dinosaur signs guide you through the cafe’s mission of being body-, earth-, farm- and ocean-friendly. Menu items, such as antibioticand hormone-free pulled pork, follow in this philosophy. The D.C. Chili Cheese Dog, meanwhile, makes no claims to being all-natural, but succeeds nonetheless for its juicy goodness served with a side of guilt.
A sign in the welcome hall directs you to the exhibits “Lunar Exploration,” “Moving Beyond Earth” and “Space Race.” Below these, a tiny red arrow points to the food court, which is marked by a set of familiar golden arches. Yes. The same building that houses the Apollo 11 Command Module and the Wright Flyer is also home to the great American fastfood franchise that moved society forward with countless calories and one red-haired clown.
Mitsitam Native Foods Cafe at the National Museum of the American Indian Fourth Street and Independence Avenue SW
This one’s by far the fan favorite. Mitsitam — named after a Native phrase meaning “Let’s eat!” — is the only restaurant that visitors at other museums mentioned for its culinary offerings, and more than one group said they came to the museum just to eat there. In a serene wooden alcove, you can sample indigenous cuisines with origins from South America to the Great Plains, the Northern Woodlands to the Northwest Coast.
The Kennedy Center has hired an arts leader from London to help redefine its artistic programming. The center announced Wednesday that Robert van Leer was appointed to the new position of senior vice president of artistic planning. He will lead the center’s artistic administrators who plan each season of music, theater and dance. Van Leer was most recently managing director of an arts consulting firm in London. Previously he was managing director of Nederlands Dans Theater and head of music at Barbican Centre in London. (AP)

The former transit chief for Baltimore has been sentenced to a year in prison for his role in a $90,000 bribery scheme. Sixtyfive-year-old Barry Stephen Robinson was sentenced Tuesday in federal court in Baltimore. Prosecutors say Robinson took a $20,000 bribe to cancel a $60,000 debt and took a $70,000 bribe to allow the theft of unused city bus shelters worth $250,000. (AP)

A union leader says Metro bus drivers in the Washington area are frequently forced to urinate while on board the bus because there’s nowhere else to go. Union official James Madaras made the statement Wednesday during a National Transportation Safety Board hearing on a malfunction that killed a Metro subway passenger in January. Madras said the union is constantly battling with Metro about giving drivers time and facilities to relieve themselves. Metro spokesman Dan Stessel says in a statement that bus drivers have access to restrooms “on virtually every trip,” including at Metrorail stations, bus stations and hotels and restaurants that have agreements with Metro.

Protesters march through Baltimore in May, the day after charges were announced against the police officers involved in Freddie Gray’s death.
Lawsuit filed over Maryland redistricting
Autopsy: Gray had ‘high-energy’ injury
A government watchdog group has filed a federal lawsuit against Maryland’s congressional district map. The lawsuit was filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Baltimore by Judicial Watch. It is challenging the constitutionality of how the state’s congressional districts were drawn. (AP)
BALTIMORE An autopsy report obtained by the Baltimore Sun concludes that Freddie Gray’s death was a non-accidental homicide after he suffered a “high-energy” injury to his neck and spine while in the Baltimore police van transporting him after his arrest in April. The Maryland state medical examiner’s report claims the officers did not follow proper safety procedures “through acts of omission” while transporting Gray. According to the report, Gray probably sustained his injury after the van suddenly decelerated. Gray was reportedly put into the van on his belly, with his hands and feet in cuffs, but likely got onto his feet while the van was moving and was thrown against
the van’s walls as it moved. Gray was not buckled in, a violation of police codes. The report claims that he was put “at risk of an unsupported fall during acceleration or deceleration of the van.” The autopsy is not yet publicly available. Gray, 25, was arrested in April by Baltimore police after fleeing at the sight of officers — he was later found to have a knife. After being arrested, Gray suffered severe spinal and neck injuries allegedly while in a police van and his requests for medical attention were ignored. He died a week later of his injuries, prompting protests and rioting in Baltimore by residents enraged with continued police brutality. WILL GREENBERG (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Virginia to review reinstating parole VIRGINIA Gov. Terry McAuliffe announced Wednesday that he will create a commission to study reinstating parole in Virginia, two decades after it was abolished by thenGov. George Allen. The Democratic governor signed the executive order during an appearance on WTOP. “It’s time to review whether that makes sense. Is it keeping our citizens safe? Is it a reasonable, good, cost-effective way? Are we rehabilitating folks?” he said. “Are sentences too long for nonviolent offenses? Are we keeping people in prison too long?” McAuliffe said it’s his job to protect citizens, but also safeguard taxpayer dollars. Virginia has built seven new prisons with 8,000 cells since 1995, he said. The commonwealth currently houses 30,369 inmates at a cost of $27,462 per year per

A Fairfax County police spokeswoman says the bear sighting was reported to police at about 1 p.m. Monday on Trap Road. She says no humans came close to the bear. This is the time of year when young bears leave their mothers to fend for themselves, and many wander into populated areas. Several have been spotted in Montgomery County, Md., lately, and at least two were seen in Fairfax County in late May and again in June. (AP)

Former Virginia Attorney General Mark L. Earley Sr., a Republican, will chair the commission with Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security Brian Moran and Secretary of the Commonwealth Levar Stoney. A copy of the order posted by the radio station said the commission would complete an interim review by November and a final report by Dec. 4. “I want everybody just to relax here. We’re not saying let everybody out, we’re not doing that. We’re going to do a comprehensive study,” McAuliffe said.

Tsarnaev apologizes as he’s sentenced to die BOSTON In a startling turn, Boston Marathon bomber Dzhokhar Tsarnaev rose to his feet and apologized to the victims and their loved ones for the first time Wednesday just before a judge formally sentenced him to death. “I am sorry for the lives that I’ve taken, for the suffering that I’ve caused you, for the damage that I’ve done — irreparable damage,” the 21-year-old said in his Russian accent, breaking more than two years of public silence. To the victims, he said: “I pray
for your relief, for your healing.” After Tsarnaev said his piece, U.S. District Judge George O’Toole Jr. quoted Shakespeare’s line: “The evil that men do lives after them. The good is often interred with their bones.” “So it will be for Dzhokhar Tsarnaev,” the judge said, telling Tsarnaev that no one will remember that his teachers were fond of him, that his friends found him fun to be with or that he showed compassion to disabled people. The apology came after Tsarnaev listened for about three

hours as a procession of victims and their loved ones lashed out at him for his “cowardly” acts.

Tsarnaev made it clear he was listening. “All those who got up on that witness stand and that podium relayed to us, to me — I was listening — the suffering that was and the hardship that still is, with strength, with patience, with dignity,” he said.

After the Islamic State’s recent stunning territorial gains, the Sunni jihadist group has reportedly taken on one of the greatest responsibilities of a sovereign nation: issuing money. Images of two coins called Islamic dinars appeared on the Twitter account of Radio Sawa’s Zaid Benjamin — the journalist said to be the first to report the video of James Foley’s beheading. In a video, the BBC said the 24-karat gold currency is based on a 17th-century Ottoman caliphate and allegedly worth about $139 in U.S. currency. They include images of a map of the world and a motto in Arabic that reads “The Islamic State — A Caliphate based on the doctrine of the Prophet.” (THE WASHINGTON POST)

BERLIN French President Francois Hollande convened high-level emergency meetings in Paris on Wednesday after the disclosure of purported top-secret reports showing that the U.S. has spied on him and predecessors Nicolas Sarkozy and Jacques Chirac. The U.S. ambassador to France was summoned to the French Foreign Ministry following the publication of WikiLeaks documents Tuesday. In France, politicians across the political spectrum — including Hollande himself, who called the spying “unacceptable” — chided the United States, which often cites France as among its oldest allies. In a statement, Hollande said the French had already questioned U.S. officials about “these acts” as early as 2013. The earliest of the leaked reports go back

U.S. recycling is in the dumps Stop throwing everything in that curbside blue bin
How making it easier to go green pushed the once-profitable industry into the red
RICKY CARIOTI (THE WASHINGTON POST)
WASTE MANAGEMENT Once a profitable business, recycling in recent years has become a money-sucking enterprise. The District, Baltimore and many counties in between are contributing millions annually to prop up one of the nation’s busiest facilities in Elkridge, Md. — but it is still losing money. Most facilities like it are running in the red. And Waste Management and other recyclers say that more than 2,000 municipalities are paying to dispose of their recyclables instead of the other way around. “If people feel that recycling is important — and I think they do, increasingly — then we are talking about a nationwide crisis,” said David Steiner, chief executive of Waste Management, the nation’s largest recycler that owns the Elkridge plant and 50 others. Environmentalists and conservation advocates question if the industry is overstating a cyclical slump. “We kind of got everyone thinking that recycling was free,” said Bill Moore, an industry consultant on paper recycling. “It’s never really been free, and in fact, it’s getting more expensive.” Still, the numbers speak for themselves: a three-year trend of shrinking profits and rising costs for U.S. municipalities — and little evidence that they are a blip. The problems of recycling in America are both global and local. Falling oil prices, a strong dollar and a weakened economy in China have sent prices for U.S. recyclables plummeting. Many of the problems can be traced to the curbside blue bin: Anything recyclable can go in, and then somehow, magically, it’s all separated and reused.
With the vast majority of U.S. towns and cities opting to let residents toss all their recyclables in one blue bin (and leave the sorting to machines), here are three ways residents can make sure more of what they bother to recycle actually gets reused. AARON C. DAVIS (THE
Once a profitable business for many cities, recycling in recent years has become a money-sucking enterprise.
Glass is the heaviest of recyclables but has always been of marginal value as a commodity. In the rough-and-tumble sorting facilities, a large share of it breaks and contaminates valuable bales of paper, plastic and other materials. Today, more than a third of all glass sent to recycling facilities ends up crushed. It is trucked to landfills as daily cover to bury the smell and trap gases. The rest has almost no value and can often cost recyclers to haul away. In recent years, the contamination was exacerbated when municipalities began increasing the size of bins. With the extra room, residents stopped breaking down cardboard boxes. Residents have also begun tossing into recycling bins almost anything rubber, metal or plastic: garden hoses, clothes hangers, shoes. Contamination has helped drive up the District’s processing price for recyclables to almost

Local recycling troubles How is recycling going for local cities and counties? Here’s a sampling: ALEXANDRIA: The net monetary
benefit of its recycling program dropped from a $150,000 profit in 2013 to a $4,000 deficit in April. ARLINGTON: The county is still making a profit, but its revenues from recycling fell from $608,454 in 2011 to $11,258 this year. THE DISTRICT: After posting a profit in 2011, recycling over the past year has cost D.C. more than $ 1 million. PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY:
Contamination has sent prices climbing, but officials didn’t disclose the cost. (TWP)
$63 a ton — 24 percent higher than if it trucked all of its recycling material, along with its trash, to a Virginia incinerator. Part of the problem for recyclers is falling global commodity
prices, which has been amplified by the changing mix of U.S. recycling. Dwindling have been the onceprofitable old newspapers, thick plastic bottles and aluminum cans that could be easily baled and reused. Plastic water bottles became thinner; the amount of plastic that once came from 22 bottles now requires 36. One bright spot has been an increase in cardboard. Analysts say that with more people buying items through online merchants, cardboard can account for up to 15 percent of cities’ recyclable loads — more than double that of a decade ago. Hallie Clemm, deputy administrator for the District’s solid waste management division, said small efforts can begin to turn the tide. “Residents have a way to influence this by making sure they are recycling right,” she said.

When you can, sort
Yes, it’s less messy to put all those leaky bottles and cans in a bag and take them to the curb later. But the first thing recyclers have to do is to break open plastic or paper every bag. Sorters don’t have time to make sure what’s inside won’t damage machinery and many times, a full bag of recyclables can get diverted to the trash pile.
Yes, a garden hose is rubber. So is the sole of a shoe. A Halloween costume is plastic, and so are Christmas lights. A few viral Internet stories about China reusing such items don’t mean that your local recycling facility is equipped to handle them. And in most cities — including the District — pizza boxes are NOT recyclable.
Some large cities have never allowed glass in their recycling bins and have separate drop off locations for that material. Anywhere sorting is offered, use it. Perhaps the single most important thing you can do is NOT put plastic shopping or newspaper bags in the recycling bin. Take those back to the grocery store.

nation+world POLITICS President Barack Obama won new powers from Congress on Wednesday to bring home an expansive Pacific Rim free-trade deal, a multi-nation accord that aides have said will ensure the U.S. maintains an economic advantage over a rising China and analysts said could stand as one of his most important foreign policy legacies. Obama’s victory comes less than two weeks after the bill was temporarily derailed in the House in an uprising of Democratic lawmakers who argued it
would cost American jobs. The president had to partner with his Republican rivals in an intense legislative fight that came to a close Wednesday after the Senate voted 60-38 to grant final approval to the fast-track bill. The bill now heads to Obama’s desk for his signature. The measure would allow Obama to negotiate global trade deals that Congress could approve or reject, but not change. The administration was seeking the “fast track” as it works to complete the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) involving

MOCK NBA DRAFT
Big guys will be first to go
Wizards look for picks that will fill needs NBA DRAFT With the Wizards not picking until No. 19 in tonight’s NBA draft (7 p.m., ESPN), plenty of unanticipated developments can — and probably will — arise that could alter their course before they’re on the clock at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. This won’t be like their previous four first-round ventures, when the Wizards owned lottery selections and the options were foreseeable. Predicting Washington’s exact pick is a crapshoot. The mystery beyond who exactly will be the selection at No. 19 — and, to a much lesser extent, later on at No. 49 — is whether Washington will take the best player available or address a need. Ideally, they would check both boxes with the selection. If the Wizards decide to go the need route, two areas are possible: bench scoring and a floor-stretching big man. A third need — wing depth — depends somewhat on if veteran forward Paul Pierce decides to re-sign and return for a second season in Washington. Below is a brief breakdown of the three departments and the potential options with the 19th pick for each.
Perimeter bench scoring The Wizards finished 15th in the NBA in bench scoring at 32.7 points per game, and the reserves’ production was a pleasant surprise for the first couple months of last season, primarily because of Rasual Butler’s sizzling start. But Butler regressed sharply and Washington’s bench became a liability that usually depended on Kevin Seraphin to bail it out in the post. Coach Randy Wittman eventually staggered Bradley Beal’s minutes to have him serve as the second unit’s go-to player, and, in search of a spark, Washington acquired Ramon Sessions in exchange for Andre Miller at the trade deadline to quicken the pace. But the Wizards still lacked scoring punch on the perimeter off the bench and finding some is a priority this summer. Possibilities: Notre Dame guard Jerian Grant, UNLV guard Rashad Vaughn, Georgia State guard R.J. Hunter, Utah guard Delon Wright

DRAFTING A CHAMPION
Number of top overall picks over the past 25 years who have won an NBA championship with the team that drafted them. Only Tim Duncan, who was selected No. 1 by the Spurs in 1997, rewarded the franchise that picked him with a title. Former top picks Shaquille O’Neal, Glenn Robinson and LeBron James won championships with teams that didn’t draft them. (EXPRESS)
Floor-spacing big man Washington’s offense reached its peak in the Wizards’ resounding four-game sweep of the Toronto Raptors in the first round. Part of the reason, surely, was Toronto’s ineptitude. But the Wizards were also buoyed by their increased use of small-ball lineups — namely using Drew Gooden
III or Pierce at power forward to space out the floor with four 3-point shooters. Washington plans on utilizing those lineups much more often next season, but the Wizards need to collect the pieces first. Possibilities: Arkansas forward

Wing depth Pierce is expected to bypass his $5.5 million player option to become a free agent, but he could come to another agreement with the Wizards for more money. If he doesn’t, Otto Porter Jr. will likely enter the starting lineup after a breakout postseason. Even if Pierce does return to Washington, the Wizards could choose to draft a wing player considering Pierce is nearing the finish line. They lacked depth behind Beal last season and they were one of the NBA’s least athletic teams. Butler is also a free agent this summer. Possibilities: Virginia guard/ forward Justin Anderson, Wisconsin forward Sam Dekker, Arizona forward Rondae Hollis-Jeffersons. JORGE C A STILLO

Along with Davis, who was a Little League sensation last summer, the Globetrotters also drafted Alex Morgan, a star forward on the U.S. women’s national soccer team.

Kevin Love is about to find out how much the league values him, and how much the Cavaliers want him. The power forward is opting out of the final year of his contract and will be a free agent on July 1, a person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press. Love, who had a deal worth $16.7 million next season, informed the Cavaliers on Wednesday. Last week, general manager David Griffin said he expected Love and superstar LeBron James to opt out of their deals and become free agents. Griffin also expects them to re-sign with the Cavaliers, who made it to the NBA Finals. (AP)

“Impossible!” stars, from left, Happenstance Theater’s Sabrina Selma Mandell, Gwen Grastorf, Mark Jaster, Sarah Olmsted Thomas and Alex Vernon.
Not just clowning around ‘Impossible!’ balances the silliness of circus life with the somber STAGE Happenstance Theater artistic co-directors Sabrina Selma Mandell and Mark Jaster came up with the idea for their latest show while flipping through a coffee-table book of vintage photos and posters from circus performances. “We fell in love with what the performers looked like,” Mandell says, “so we created our own versions based on the posters.” Opening Friday at Bethesda’s Round House Theatre, “Impossible! A Happenstance Circus” is an homage to the 1930s and ’40s heyday of the big top. Each
of the D.C.-based company’s six members plays at least five classic circus characters, including the mustachioed magician in a top hat, a fire-spinner, a knifethrower, sideshow characters and, of course, clowns throwing pies. Happenstance member Karen Hansen composed original works and arranged period songs for the show, including a tune about potato salad performed by a ukulele sextet. Cast members sing a song called “I Don’t Want to Set the World on Fire” during the fire-eating bit (accompanied by a pump organ), and there’s also a human calliope (made up of six people singing as one). Hansen herself serves as a one-woman circus band, playing multiple instruments during the performance.

sad looks at the backstage lives of the performers. “Juxtaposing the Depression era with the glamour of the circus world seemed like an innate poetic contrast,” Mandell says. It’s an idea the troupe carries throughout the show. “It’s not at all escapist,” Mandell says of “Impossible!” “It’s actually realist. The clowns acknowledge the fragility and impermanence of being. We all share these vulnerabilities, and the show encourages us to embrace the moment and celebrate the present: It’s the only thing that’s real.” ELENA GOUKASSIAN (FOR EXPRESS)

Bourbon Coffee Last week, Pound the Hill owners Karl Johnson and Frank Rinaldi sent a heartfelt note to their email list, explaining they were closing the coffee and sandwich shop after more than four years on Capitol Hill. They officially pulled the plug on Sunday. On Monday, Bourbon Coffee took over the space and introduced java hounds to its directtrade Rwandan coffee. But other than changing beans, general manager Heather Lowe expects much to remain the same on the Hill. “A lot of what we are will not change,” Lowe says. “We’re keeping all of our staff and all of our management.” Chef Albert Griffin will also remain, Lowe says, so you shouldn’t see any radical transformations with the menus. One significant difference, however, will concern alcohol. There won’t be any beer and wine — at least for now. Lowe says the new owners plan to apply for a license. Pound the Hill, 621 Pennsylvania Ave. SE, transferred ownership to Bourbon Coffee on Monday; 202-621-6765, poundthehill.com.

a specialized rock-climbing gym (a form of exercise known as “bouldering,” which sounds like something University of Colorado students do in their dorm rooms). The coffee shop will be a second location of Qualia, the Petworth oasis for single-origin beans from around the world. Owner and roaster Joel Finkelstein signed a lease last year and originally planned to move into the existing structure on Mount Olivet Road NE. But a city structural engineer determined “the whole building has to come down,” Finkelstein says. “The bad news for us is that it seriously delayed our timeline.” At this point, Finkelstein doesn’t expect to open the second location until mid-2016.
Whenever it does debut, the new Qualia will have two coffee bars, a dedicated space for educational workshops and a lot more room for roasting. The larger operation will mean Finkelstein won’t have to continue his weekly 12-hour power roasts to prepare for the Arlington and Columbia Heights farmers markets, where he sells dozens of bags of beans every Saturday. “We just don’t have the capacity for that kind of [roasting] blowout,” Finkelstein says about his current space on Georgia Avenue NW, where less than 100 square feet are carved out for roasting. Finkelstein may cut back on the number of beans available at the coffee bar, which currently runs to 12 daily. “I might have to pare it back to bring it down to nine or 10,” he says. But at the same time, he plans to have more varietals available for espresso and cold-brew preparations, instead of, for example, a single espresso of the day selection. The owner is not sure how many seats the new space will have, but whatever the final number, none will be dedicated to urban coffee-shop squatters and their laptops. Finkelstein says the second location will not have Wi-Fi. “That space is really going to be focused on coffee and not other things,” he promises. Qualia Coffee, 1240 Mount Olivet Road NE, is tentatively scheduled to open mid-2016; qualiacoffee.com.

Don’t balk. These smelly little fish become delicious when they’re thrown in a cast-iron pan and roasted in the oven. First, they’re coated with olive oil, salt and semolina. “It adds a textural element and gives them a golden color when it crisps up,” Etto cook Alex Vedadi says of the dusting of coarse wheat. The anchovies, imported from Portugal, are filleted in-house. “You have to be very delicate, but it’s not difficult once you‘ve done a couple hundred,“ Vedadi says. HOLLEY SIMMONS (EXPRESS)

Treasures from the cornerstone Found: 2 time capsules from below Baltimore’s Washington Monument EXHIBITS Last winter, a contractor was digging a pit for a new septic tank at Baltimore’s Washington Monument, when he hit the edge of a large granite cube. It turned out to be the structure’s long-lost, hollow cornerstone, which contained three glass jars interred in 1815. “Accounts from the day said there would be coins, newspapers and a likeness of George Washington, but we didn’t know exactly what that meant,” says Lance Humphries, chair of the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy’s monument restoration committee. The likeness of Washington turned out to be a tiny impression on paper, and the handful of silver, gold and copper coins are now worth around $100,000. The capsule also included a book of Scottish folk songs and a pocketsized Bible. Workers also discovered a different time capsule in the monument, which was sealed up in a copper box and placed behind a bronze plaque in 1915. Items from both capsules will be on display at the Maryland Historical Society starting July 4. The exhibit, called “Treasures Unearthed From Baltimore’s Washington Monument,” will be
on view at least through the end of the month, says Mark Letzer, president-elect of the Maryland Historical Society. The exhibit organizers hope it will bring some attention to Baltimore’s Washington Monument, which has long stood in the shadow of the Washington Monument on the National Mall. “Baltimore’s Washington Monument was the first monument to George Washington,” Humphries says. “At 180 feet, it was an enormous structure when it was completed in 1829, even though it’s not half as tall as Washington, D.C.’s Washington Monument,” which got capped off 55 years later. Construction on Baltimore’s Washington Monument began soon after the Battle of Baltimore in 1814, which secured the U.S.’s continued independence from England. The contents of the 1815 time capsule show that victory was fresh on their minds. “The last thing they put in there was a newspaper, which had reprinted the full text of the Declaration of Independence,” Humphries says. “It shows that the Washington Monument symbolized not just George Washington, but American independence, which they had just successfully defended.” Newspapers made the cut for both time capsules, and they stood up remarkably well despite the damp conditions of the

The 200-year-old cornerstone held jars containing newspapers and coins, top. Now there’s a note explaining what used to be there, bottom.
The 1915 time capsule contained a medallion celebrating the Battle of Baltimore’s centennial.
“Newspapers today are made of such horrible paper that we knew it wouldn’t last.” LANCE HUMPHRIES, of the Mount Vernon Place Conservancy, on why the new capsule has no newspaper
monument, Humphries says. Modern newspapers wouldn’t do so well, he says. “We certainly thought about putting a copy of the Baltimore Sun back into the cornerstone, but newspapers today are made of such horrible paper that we knew it wouldn’t last,” he says. Instead, the conservators placed a 3-D printed model of the George Washington statue that sits at the top of the monument and a hollow, 3-D print of Washington’s hand, stuffed with a note explaining what used to be inside the cornerstone. “Since the original cornerstone had a likeness of Washington, we thought it was important to put a likeness of Washington back inside,” Humphries says.

JUNE 25–JULY 8 ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ Captain Hook and Peter Pan come face to face in Threesixty’s production.
Taking high-tech to new heights Threesixty’s ‘Peter Pan’ “It became immediately uses state-of-the-art clear that I had tricks to make magic STAGE It’s usually not great news when a theatrical producer gets an urgent phone call. So Charlie Burnell had reason to be concerned. “Someone phoned me and said, ‘You have got to get down here,’ ” says Burnell, founder of Threesixty Entertainment and producer/creator of the extravagantly high-tech “Peter Pan,” now running at Tyson’s Corner. It was the first time the rehearsing actors had taken to the air, and the caller described the astonishment: “ ‘There are seasoned professionals with their jaws on the floor. We’ve hit on something new here.’ ” Actually, they’ve hit on a lot of somethings new. This production of “Peter Pan” happens in a 100-foot-high tent with all the support structures kept outside, so there’s nothing to block the audience’s view (and, Burnell says, “so Peter and Wendy would not smash into any poles” when taking flight). And nothing blocks the 12 projectors simultaneously beaming 360 degrees of computer-generated Edwardian London — and, of course, Neverland — across the tent’s interior.
no idea how my body worked when it wasn’t touching the ground.” MAURA JUDKIS, a Washington Post reporter who flew with the cast of “Peter Pan” for a story. Read her full report at goingoutguide.com.
For Burnell, though, “Peter Pan” isn’t actually about the tech. “The show’s the thing,” Burnell says. “It cannot be about the video. Much of the time it’s simply a backdrop. ... But sometimes it’s a flight over 200 square miles of London, and for the actors and the audience it becomes a totally immersive experience.” Burnell hopes audiences will forget about the bells and whistles. “I think, when you look at it, you don’t marvel at the tech. You marvel at the magic,” he says. “The show really is all about magic.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Russell Howard British comedian Russell Howard genuinely enjoys life on the road. “When you start exploring a country, you can wander about and take little thoughts onstage with you,” Howard says. “It’s like an interactive diary: You have a day and then you have a bunch of thoughts and then you bring them out onstage and some of them work and some of them you’re like, ‘what?’ ” Last year, Howard, 35, went on his first proper U.S. tour, playing comedy clubs and intimate venues — a far cry from his life back home, where he headlines arenas and is a TV star (his long-running BBC series, “Russell Howard’s Good News,” is like a cross between “The Daily Show” and “The Soup”). On Saturday, Howard kicks off another American stand-up tour at Sixth and I. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) Is there a difference between performing at an arena and a more intimate venue? [At an arena], there has to be this airtight monologue. For example, I did [an arena] gig in Birmingham last year and I bumped into a guy at a supermarket the next day and he was like, “I really enjoyed your show. It was a shame about that fight, wasn’t it?” And I’m like, “What?!” There was a f---ing massive fight, a hundred person punch-up, and I had no idea, and that’s when you know you’re doing massive gigs. At a 200-300-seater, if a third of those people are kicking the s--- out of each other, you’re probably going to reference it. Did you have to tailor your act to Americans? No, not really. It’s not that they
wouldn’t get it — I don’t have that high an opinion of myself — but I think there’s certain things that don’t work. Last year, we did a week at the Royal Albert Hall [in London] and we had two weeks off and then we did some gigs in New York, and it was so fascinating. There were bits that would just kill at the Albert Hall that just didn’t translate. But then other bits were massive. There is no rhyme or reason to it. Last year, you played the DC Improv. How did that go? Half of it was improvised. That was a really fun night and there was lots of madness in the air. A lot of people turned up — I thought it was going to be English expats, to be honest with you, but it was full of Americans who were really into “Good News.”

They were quoting jokes that I’d written four years ago and [I wasn’t] able to remember them. You’re developing a travel show for the British Comedy Central. What’s the plan for that? I think the plan is I’m going to travel around America with my mom. It’s a fun way of doing it and then exploring all the different layers of America with my mom.
“It’s just such a rich and diverse country, even the train journey from New York to Washington for an English person is absolutely fascinating.”
Are you scouting this summer? Probably. It’s just such a rich and diverse country, even the train journey from New York to Washington for an English person is absolutely fascinating. You just see how broken it is on the way. It’s incredible because we still have this idea of, you know, “America! F--- yeah!” To see pylons bent over, just like drifting into the river, and then you go past Baltimore and go “s---,” and suddenly you’re in Washington and it’s amazing! But there’s loads of homeless people everywhere. I’m interested in those kind of subtleties that you only tend to get at ground level. It doesn’t make [the U.S.] any less intoxicating, it just feels like America is a slightly dying showgirl: She’s still beautiful, she’s still got it where it counts, but if you look close …

‘It will be a more intimate place. It’ll feel more like a village.’ Peru gets all the attention at 2015’s scaled-down Folklife fest
Peru’s Folklife glossary
EVERY YEAR SINCE 1967, the Smithsonian Folklife Festival has laid a smorgasbord of world cultures along the National Mall. This year, there’s just one course: “Peru: Pachamama,” a celebration of the country’s history, biodiversity and culture. As a result, the festival, which started Wednesday, is bringing in about 80 fewer artists than usual and occupying just one block of Mall space — between Third and Fourth streets SW — instead of the usual five. Why the slimdown? Because the area usually occupied by Folklife Festival is undergoing turf restoration, festival director Sabrina Motley says. “Our traditional home on the Mall was not available, so we [decided to] partner with our colleagues at the National Museum of the American Indian, and use the space in front,” she says. “It will be a more intimate place. It’ll feel more like a village.” It’ll be a bustling village. The festival expects to attract its usual 1 million-plus visitors, so outdoor spaces will probably be more crowded than usual. However, the NMAI partnership should help ease the congestion, Motley says. In conjunction with the festival, the American Indian museum has a new exhibit, “The Great Inka Road: Engineering an Empire.” (See story on facing page). The museum also hosts the festival’s marketplace, 4,000 square feet of authentic crafts from Peru. Out on the Mall, some 150 culture-bearers will demonstrate Peru’s traditional dance, music and visual arts, Motley says. Specially trained horses will perform the country’s national dance, fisherman will explain how to make stingray jerky and a team of engineers will make a traditional suspension bridge out of braided grass. There will also be evening performances, to which people are encouraged to bring blankets and picnics. (New National Park Service regulations didn’t allow the festival to set up its usual large tents and chairs for daytime performances.) “I think that people will be surprised as they always are when they come to the festival,” Motley says. “They will not miss the festival experience.”

Superhighway information ‘The Great Inka Road’ details the empire’s amazing thoroughfare EXHIBITS Without wheels or iron tools, the Inca built a vast empire in South America that lasted about 100 years, beginning in 1438. A network of more than 24,000 miles of roads formed the backbone of this civilization. Those roads are the focus of a new exhibit opening Friday at the National Museum of the American Indian, “The Great Inka Road: Engineering an Empire.” (“Inka” is the spelling used in Quechua, a native language still spoken by Inca descendants.) “It’s astounding that the Inca were able to engineer a road system that didn’t wash away despite the incredible amount of rainfall and the earthquakes in that part of the world,” says Amy Van Allen, Inka Road project manager. Modern engineers study how the Inca channeled water away from roadways and buildings, says Dan Davis, who’s in charge of the exhibit’s interactive elements. “A lot of people think of native tribes or ancient people as more primitive, but the Inca were so far ahead of their time,” he says. “We are only catching up to their ideas of sustainability today.” Informed by the foundations
that still stand in the Inca capital of Cusco, archaeologists and architects made a 3-D model of the city as it looked at the height of the empire. Exhibit visitors can explore ancient Cusco using a huge touch-screen table. Either click around the map for a walking tour, or take control of a condor to get a bird’s-eye view. Augmenting the interactive exhibits are artifacts from the museum’s collection, including a khipu — an intricate recordkeeping system consisting of knotted ropes. Inca bureaucrats used these to keep tabs on supplies, livestock and the number of people in various municipalities. After all, this was a 12 millionperson empire that operated smoothly without currency or stores. Nearly everything was managed by the central government, Van Allen says. “You need powerful administrative tools to keep all these people working and fed,” Van Allen says. That feat may particularly interest locals, Davis says. “D.C. bureaucrats might see this and appreciate they don’t have to deal with kipus,” Davis says.

D’Angelo and the Vanguard
MUSIC
Ceremony
On Thursday, the king of neo-soul makes his long-awaited return to the D.C. area. But it’s not just to relive past glory. It’s been a productive few months for the enigmatic D’Angelo, who dropped the sprawling, meticulous record “Black Messiah” in December, his first since 2000’s “Voodoo.” And now, he’s reportedly working on a followup album. In other words, D’Angelo is re-energized.

Dave Coulier Can’t wait for Netflix’s “Full House” reboot, “Fuller House?” No? You’re in luck: Dave Coulier will be doing some “clean comedy” standup sets at the Arlington Drafthouse on Friday. He’ll hopefully tell some good “Full House” stories, reminding you why you loved his goofy, gawky character in the first place. Plus, you can bring the kids. Arlington Cinema and Drafthouse, 2903 Columbia Pike, Arlington; Fri., 7:30 & 10:15 p.m., Sat., 7 & 10 p.m., $25. SHOPPING
DC Goodwill Summer Trunk Show If you’re looking for fashionable summer clothing but need to stick to a strict budget, head to this weekend’s Goodwill Summer Trunk Show, where an edited selection of the best outfits from local Goodwill stores will be on display and on sale.
VICTORIA PICKERING (VIA FLICKR)
This annual event, which kicked off last week, puts on a number of plays around the city, all fitting into one of three genres: traditional, gospel and urban. There also is a one-act play battle in four categories, with audience members picking a winner each evening.
When Ceremony dropped its newest album, “The L-Shaped Man,” in May, the California hardcore band surprised everyone with a tighter, more restrained post-punk sound akin to Joy Division or Interpol. How its live show has evolved accordingly should be interesting to see at the Rock and Roll Hotel on Friday. Rock and Roll Hotel, 1353
FRIDAY
D.C.’s Biggest Dance Party Carnegie Library, 801 K St. NW; Fri., 7-11 p.m., free.
While it can’t be promised that this event at Carnegie Library will break any records for size or capacity, D.C.’s Biggest Dance Party, which will take place outdoors and feature a groovy mix of retro and current hits (spun by DJ Quicksilva and DJ Rusty B), should be a fun night out regardless.

SUNDAY
Torres DC9, 1940 Ninth St. NW; Sun., 9 p.m., $12.
Mackenzie Scott, who records and performs as Torres, plays aching, slightly roots-y indie rock in the vein of Angel Olsen and Sharon Van Etten. She’s also one of 2015’s breakout indie artists, thanks to the rave reviews for her sophomore album, May’s “Sprinter.” See her up close and personal on Sunday at DC9.
laid-back evening of outdoor live music, head to the Lubbock Run Amphitheater to see the Arlington Philharmonic on Sunday. This particular free show, dubbed “Pops for Pets,” is animal-friendly, so bring your dog with you. The program will include patriotic, classical and animal-related pieces, so maybe an orchestral “Who Let the Dogs Out?” is in order. Lubber Run Amphitheater, North Columbus Street and Second St., Arlington; Sun., 6 p.m., free.

SUNDAY
10th Annual Crabcake Competition The Source, 575 Pennsylvania Ave. NW; Sun., noon- 3 p.m., $85.
Considering Maryland is the nation’s unequivocal hotbed for crabcakes, the 10th Annual Crabcake Competition — which features eight local chefs cooking with ‘True Blue’-certified Maryland blue crabs — should be a delicious doozy. The event includes tastes of all the crabcakes, oyster bars and booze stations. As a bonus: The winning chef will receive funds to support a culinary intern. So think of your ticket as a way of paying things forward.

When Basement Jaxx takes the stage on Tuesday, it won’t be for a DJ set. That’s because for the first time in a decade, the iconic electronic duo has taken its live show (which involves a 12-piece
band) to the U.S. to treat us with a dance music spectacle. It’ll all be worth the wait when you get to sing along with the British group’s smash 2001 single, “Where’s Your Head At.” 9:30 Club, 815 V St.

WASHINGTONPOST.COM STYLE BLOG
When ‘canceled’ is really code for ‘to be continued’ On Monday, NBC announced that after “Hannibal” airs its final 10 episodes in the summer, the grisly, absorbing drama will be canceled. Who cares? It no longer makes sense to get upset when something is “canceled.” “Hannibal” looks like it’s headed for the same fate as “The Mindy Project,” “Community” and “Degrassi”: all shows that were rescued by the likes of Hulu, Yahoo! and Netflix. Within hours of NBC’s announcement, “Hannibal’s” executive producer said the show is “exploring other distribution options.” BuzzFeed pointed out that the show has an exclusive streaming deal with Amazon, now in the market for its own original programming. Draw your own conclusions. If a show has a loyal fan base, cancellation just means waiting to see where it will end up next. But for an increasingly entitled TV culture, it’s not necessarily a great thing. After a show is rescued, the excitement is all used up during the initial announcement. By the time the show launches in its new home, the enthusiasm level inevitably plummets. “Arrested Development,” Season 4, lost all steam pretty much immediately. And do you know anyone who watched “Community,” Season 6? So for everyone tweeting #SaveHannibal: There’s a pretty good chance that something will work out. But be careful what you wish for.

Warner Bros. will no longer manufacture any products that carry the Confederate flag, Vulture reports. This new rule mostly affects products related to “The Dukes of Hazzard,” specifically the show’s General Lee car with the flag painted on the roof. According to Vulture, that imagery adorns plenty of merchandise, including lunchboxes, toy cars and T-shirts. Warner Bros. faced protests from fans in 2012, when rumors flew that it would remove the flag from “Hazzard” merchandise. This time, the news comes after widespread calls to remove the flag from the South Carolina state capitol. (EXPRESS)

The good ol’ boys will need a new ride
From left, Zoe Saldana and Mark Ruffalo take direction from Maya Forbes on the set of “Infinitely Polar Bear.”
The year that inspired ‘Infinitely Polar Bear’ Director Maya Forbes revisits her childhood living with a bipolar dad FILM Maya Forbes, the writer-director of “Infinitely Polar Bear,” wanted to go back in time to tell her 1970s-set story. At least technologically. “I wanted to shoot it on film,” she says. “I like sort of a grimy texture of film; it has a messiness, a depth to it.” Cost prevented that, though, so she chose to integrate Super 8 — the low-end film that essentially defined home moviemaking until the ’80s — and Polaroids to get that pre-digital look. “There’s a certain color palette of the ’70s: those poppy reds, those big colors. I wanted the film to look like a vivid memory.”
900K
That’s because, for Forbes, the film is a memory. “Infinitely Polar Bear,” which opens locally Friday, is about her childhood days growing up with a father who struggled with not-verywell-treated bipolar disorder (“manic-depression” back then). Mark Ruffalo plays the dad, Cameron, who winds up as sole caretaker of two daughters for a year when his wife Maggie (Zoe Saldana) goes off to earn a degree with dreams of pulling the family out of the near-poverty in which they live. (Forbes’ real-life daughter, Imogene Wolodarsky, plays the girl Forbes based on herself.) That year was a trying one for Forbes, her sister and their father, the first-time director says. For one thing, he had to be a stay-at-home dad in an era when such a thing really didn’t exist.
“It was hard for him to wrap his mind around ‘you’re the domestic caretaker now,’ ” says Forbes (“The Larry Sanders Show,” “The Rocker”). “He loved being a father, but he didn’t want to be the responsible party. I think it was a little embarrassing to him at first. What I think now was it was quite an achievement that he managed to stay together for us.” The nature of her father’s disease made the situation more tenuous, both in real life and when it came to the script. “I really loved my father, and I felt really sad for him, and he was really annoying a lot of the time,” Forbes says. “To tell the story of a family it was important to bring all those things into it, because that’s what families are comprised of. Every family deals with these kinds of issues.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

The approximate number of downloads in the first 36 hours of release of the most recent episode of the podcast “WTF With Marc Maron,” which featured President Barack Obama as its guest. That makes it the most-downloaded episode in “WTF’s” five-and-a-half year history, far eclipsing the previous record of 200,000 downloads set by his January episode with director Paul Thomas Anderson.

Working with five dogs challenged the cast and director of ‘Max’

with strings attached. “Whenever you’re doing a scene with a dog, the trainer will be behind you, yelling orders,” Wiggins says. “You have to learn to block that out. Then you have to take what the dog is doing and look at it as behavior, not as following orders. You have to think of it as its reaction to what you’re doing.” Max, a Belgian Malinois, was actually played by five dogs: one for closeups, two for acting, one for jumping and knocking people down, and one for running.

MEMORABILIA | Hulu has re-created Jerry’s “Seinfeld” apartment for the show’s Wednesday release of all nine seasons on the streaming video service. The model, installed in Manhattan’s Meatpacking District, includes the Monk’s Cafe table and booth, the Festivus Pole and other memorabilia.
“Who’s a good dog?” and “Who’s a pretty boy?”) The dogs presented a challenge for Yakin too. “When you get a [good] performance from a human, you know on set,” he says. “When you’re working with the dog … you only really know once you get in the editing room whether it sold or not.” That put even more pressure on Wiggins. “It’s not about how your take is,” he says. “If you get a take with the dog, that’s the one they’re going to use. It doesn’t matter if you mess up a line or something. With the dog, you have to put it all out there on every take.”
WARNER BROS.
FILM Writer-director Boaz Yakin knew he had the recipe for a threetissue movie. And that’s not what he was going for. The title character of “Max,” which opens Friday, is a military working dog who returns from Afghanistan after his handler is killed. Suffering from PTSD, Max calms down only when he’s near his handler’s teenage brother, Justin. So you’ve got a dead Marine, his grieving family and — possibly trickiest of all — a scared dog. “People’s relationship with animals in general causes them to drop their defenses, causes them to feel more emotional and possibly manipulated,” Yakin says. “We had to walk that line between sentiment and sentimentality.” Much of that burden rested on Josh Wiggins, who plays Justi n.

Men’s grooming tool manufacturer Wahl announced the four-month deal Tuesday, while also crowning D.C. the “most facial-hair friendly” city in the country. The company credited Nats players with helping the District rise to No. 1 from its 19th place ranking last year.

Proud to see it officially landmarked.” @BILLDEBLASIO, the mayor of New York City, applauds the official designation of the Stonewall Inn as a historical landmark. In 1969, the New York City bar was the site of protests that launched the gay rights movement. Now the New York City Landmarks Preservation Commission voted unanimously to protect it from any future unsanctioned developments.

And that includes every Donald Trump parody.” COMMENTER IKE B AT DEADSPIN.COM fully supports NBA Catwatch, a Twitter account that is attempting to create a comprehensive list of every person associated with pro hoops who has a cat. While the list is still a major work in progress — it is relatively tiny — the most fun is following along as the account tries to find cat-owning basketball players. @NBAcatwatch tweets to players, girlfriends, siblings, etc., asking for confirmation that a player has a cat. Delightful responses ensue.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You’re nearing the start of something big, and you want to be sure that you’re properly decked out and ready for your moment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) There are certain dangers to be avoided, but most can be seen a mile away. One or two, however, have a way of sneaking up. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll find yourself exploring unfamiliar territory before the day is out. What happens as a result may present a new opportunity. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Someone may accuse you of not playing by the rules, but nothing could be further from the truth. You simply have a better understanding of them!

loved one may not agree with your approach, but your intent is certainly shared. You’ll come together eventually.
TODAY: We start to trend a bit more humid, and with that we’ll likely see increasing clouds as unsettled weather approaches from the west. We could see a few showers or thunderstorms pop in the afternoon (30 percent chance). Shower and storm chances increase to 60 percent during the evening and overnight.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The
way you make key decisions will separate you from most others. You know what is at stake — or at least you think you do. ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’re going to have to follow some very strict rules, but doing so can help you achieve something special. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) A difference of opinion is likely to reveal the heart of an issue that has eluded you for some time. You can score a personal coup.

In a new interview with GQ, John Mayer defended his favorite clothing item: robes. He described his collection of Tibetan robes, noting that People magazine has photographed him, saying “that I was wearing a bathrobe. And it’s like, ‘Well, actually it’s a totally hand-painted, natural dye. … It’s made with real indigo and crushed up ladybugs!’ ” He then detailed the many uses of the Tibetan robe: “You can use it as a background to take pictures of things for Instagram. You can use it as a blanket. You can use it as a tent. I’ve watched movies under it on the airplane—it’s breathable! You can use it as a paparazzi shield.” (EXPRESS)
