‘That’s one less majestic tree’ THE DISTRICT Before 9/11, the World Wars, the Civil War — indeed, before the U.S. or the District of Columbia existed — a red oak tree began to grow on what would become the 1300 block of Floral Street NW. For centuries, a flaw in its structure left it destined to develop a split it couldn’t survive. On Tuesday morning, part of the tree crashed to the ground in the quiet Shepherd Park neighborhood. Now, only a stump remains. No one was injured, and property damage was limited. But for the first time since the 1600s, this small patch of land cherished by generations sits treeless. “What a tragedy,” said John Anna, of Adirondack Tree Experts, the company contracted to complete the $12,000 removal job. “That’s one less majestic tree.” Anna said the red oak was one of the oldest trees he’s seen in his 30 years in the region — about 325 years old. Anna estimated the red oak’s age by averaging the number of rings in different sections

and comparing that number to algorithms that estimate tree ages based on their diameter. By these measures, the tree was likely a contemporary of the Salem witch trials. “Two hundred years after Columbus landed in San Salvador, this guy germinated,” Anna said. “I just think that is very impressive.” The numbers tell the tale: On Monday, this was a massive, 75-foot-tall living organism, 65 inches in diameter with a

circumference of 204 inches. One piece of the base hauled away weighed 17,000 pounds; another was 14,000 pounds. By Tuesday afternoon, its life was erased. A 100-ton crane moved huge chunks of the tree into waiting trucks. “The tree I can’t stop crying about,” said Ruth Jordan, who lived on the block from 1962 until about 10 years ago, when she moved to Silver Spring. “I feel as if I lost a member of my family.” Replacing the red oak will take time — or really, lifetimes. In 1692, all a sapling had to fear was weather, disease or passing horses. In 2017, there are pollutants, road salt that can inhibit growth and condominiums that can spring up. Nearby Walter Reed is soon to give birth to a whole new neighborhood. Future tree-loving D.C. residents — perhaps those fighting flying car lanes on 16th Street in the 24th century — are not out of luck, though. Unlike the humans who walk the Earth, a tree need never shuffle off this mortal coil. “A tree will live forever if growing conditions remain opportune,” Anna said. “The end of its life span — that does not exist.” JUSTIN WM.

Two CSX conductors struck and killed in D.C. TRANSPORTATION Two conductors who got out of their freight train to follow up on an alert that there was a problem with one or more of the train’s wheels were struck and killed by a passenger train near Washington’s Union Station. The CSX employees were responding Tuesday night after one of the detectors placed along the tracks about every 25 miles identified an abnormality, National Transportation Safety Board member Earl Weener said Wednesday at a

news conference. He could not say if the operator of the Amtrak train saw the CSX employees before hitting them, but said that’s being investigated. He said there were “few definitive facts at this early stage.” The freight train, which was traveling from Baltimore, was about 9,000 to 9,500 feet long, Weener said. The CSX employees were struck by an Amtrak train that was traveling from Boston and New York and was approaching Union Station. Amtrak said none of the train’s passengers or

Amtrak service was suspended for nearly 10 hours between Washington and Philadelphia, but service resumed Wednesday morning, with delays. The area where the employees were struck has two tracks that belong to CSX and two that belong to Amtrak, Weener said. Investigators will be looking at communication between CSX and Amtrak.

NPS to fight enemy insects on D.C. island

A brief break from the heat

THE DISTRICT | In the spotlight, a black squirrel munches on tree nuts Wednesday at the Old Soldiers’ Home Golf Course. Today marks the return of more typical summer heat and humidity, with temperatures in the low 90s.

The bad news is that Theodore Roosevelt Island, an idyllic expanse in the Potomac River just below Key Bridge, is under attack. The good news is that the government has detected the threat and says that it is taking defensive measures. The National Park Service said Monday that it was closing the 88-acre island temporarily to remove trees that have already fallen prey to the invader, an insect no more than a half-inch long called the emerald ash borer. A recent survey has found extensive tree damage, the park service said. Damaged trees along the island’s many trails pose a hazard, the agency said. The onslaught of the ash borer is in its 10th year in the parks around D.C., the park service said. (TWP)

The weekend closures may be unpleasant news for riders who had hoped that the end of the 13-month SafeTrack repair project meant an end to scheduled closures and single-tracking.

CNN keeps stumbling in coverage of Trump

GREAT BRITAIN

UK charges six people in 1989 stadium tragedy

Retracted Russia story by network is the latest in a series of missteps TIME WILL TELL

EVAN VUCCI (AP)

MEDIA CNN investigations editor Lex Haris traveled to a journalism conference in Phoenix last week. His timing was terrible. While he was away, his group published a story on cnn.com that reported — citing a single anonymous source — that Senate investigators were looking into a meeting between a member of President Trump’s transition team, Wall Street financier Anthony Scaramucci, and an executive of a Russian investment fund before Trump took office. The story seemed to advance the narrative of ties between Trump campaign officials and people close to Russia’s Vladimir Putin. But when challenged on the particulars of the story, CNN acknowledged that it couldn’t stand by it. It retracted it and apologized to Scaramucci on Saturday. On Monday, Haris and the editor and reporter of the piece, Eric Lichtblau and Thomas Frank, resigned from CNN. The sequence of events led Trump to take a victory lap Tuesday. He turned to Twitter to bash CNN and other media outlets (including The Washington Post) that have aggressively reported on his associates’ ties to Russian officials during the campaign and pre-inaugural period.

CNN retracted a story on transition team member Anthony Scaramucci.

“Wow, CNN had to retract big story on ‘Russia,’ with 3 employees forced to resign. What about all the other phony stories they do? FAKE NEWS!” Trump tweeted. He added later, “Fake News CNN is looking at big management changes now that they got caught falsely pushing their phony Russian stories ...” In fact, CNN isn’t looking at “big management changes,” according to senior executives at the network. But the Scaramucci story was another setback for CNN, which, like other news organizations, is under intense scrutiny from Trump and his supporters. The tense environment led CNN Chairman Jeff Zucker to stress internally the need to “play error-free ball” in reporting on Trump. But CNN has had

several recent Trump debacles: It fired comedian Kathy Griffin, who co-hosted its New Year’s Eve show, after she posed with a bloody facsimile of Trump’s severed head. It corrected a story that wrongly predicted what James Comey would say about Trump in his congressional testimony. And it canceled a new series, “Believer,” and fired host Reza Aslan after he described Trump in vulgar terms on Twitter. The fraught atmosphere may help explain why CNN went to such lengths to address its Scaramucci story. News organizations typically issue corrections for errors, but CNN apologized for it, removed it from its website and accepted the resignations of those involved in producing it. PAUL FARHI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Fake magazine on display at Trump sites A framed copy of Time magazine was hung on the wall in at least five of President Trump’s clubs, from South Florida to Scotland. Filling the entire cover was a photo of Donald Trump, with the words, “Donald Trump: The ‘Apprentice’ is a television smash!” The cover — dated March 1, 2009 — looks like an impressive memento. But it’s fake. There was no March 1, 2009, issue of Time. Some telling errors: Its red border is skinnier than on a genuine cover, and there is no thin white border inside the red frame. Spokespeople for Time Inc. confirmed that it is a fake and said that Time had asked the Trump Organization to remove the covers on display. DAVID A. FAHRENTHOLD (TWP)

WMATA: FUND IT, FIX IT, MAKE IT FAIR Higher fares, shorter hours, and cuts in service enacted by WMATA this week are bad for Metro riders. The front-line workers who operate and maintain Metro Rail and Bus, have a better plan to save, stabilize and improve the system. •

$2 flat fare and free bus transfers. Different regular and peak time fares, as well as paying for bus to subway transfers, are expensive and a headache for riders. We have proposed a $2 flat fare that will boost rider confidence in the system, save you money, and increase revenue for the system by bringing riders back to Metro.

•

Restoring and expanding service. By cutting essential bus lines around the region, GM Paul Wiedefeld is literally locking out working-class people who need Metro to have access to school, work and doctor appointments.

•

Increasing hours of service. Metro’s shorter hours of service impact the region’s working-class most, especially those who work late night and early morning shifts. This is not acceptable.

•

Rejecting private outsourcing of work. Privatizing public transit leads to unreliable service, safety issues, labor violations, and poor management with little public accountability. We’ve seen how for-profit multinational corporations have bungled the D.C. Streetcar and D.C. Circulator. Metro riders deserve safe, reliable and affordable transportation led by people we can all hold accountable.

Workers want an outstanding transit system for this region because this is our community, too. We are your neighbors and church members. We shop at the same grocery stores and send our children to the same schools. Metro’s success is not only success for Metro’s workforce, it is also a win for the communities we live in together.

This is a bold and sensible plan that puts riders first. We have no time to waste. Call WMATA Board Chair Jack Evans at 202-724-8058 or email jevans@dccouncil.us and tell him you support the ATU Local 689 proposals to FUND IT, FIX IT AND MAKE IT FAIR.

TRANSPORTATION The Department of Homeland Security is demanding that airlines around the world step up security measures for international flights bound for the United States or face the possibility of a total electronics ban for planes. Compliance with the new rules could lead to the lifting of a ban on laptops and other large electronics already in place for airlines flying to the United States from 10 airports in the Middle East and Africa. It could also stave off a much-discussed expansion of the ban to flights from Europe. Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly announced the rollout of the new rules Wednesday.

The percentage by which NATO allies of the U.S. plan to boost their defense spending this year, Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said Wednesday, a response in part to pressure from President Trump for those countries to invest more in their militaries. Trump has castigated NATO allies for their dependence on the U.S. military for their defense. The increase — an estimate for 2017 — will boost military spending by non-U.S. NATO members to $295 billion, still far less than the U.S. spends alone. (TWP)

passenger vetting, explosives detection and efforts to root out insider threats to airlines. “Security is my No. 1 concern,” Kelly said during a speech in Washington at the Center for a New American Security. “Our enemies are adaptive and we have to adapt as well.” He said the changes will be “seen and unseen” and will be phased in over weeks and months. He said airlines that don’t comply or are slow to enforce the new standards could be forced to bar large electronics in both carry-on and checked luggage. They could also lose permission to fly into the U.S. He said he’s confident that airlines will cooperate. The current ban, which affects only foreign carriers flying to the U.S. from 10 cities, allows passengers to travel with larger electronics packed in checked baggage. The new rules will apply to

roughly 180 foreign and U.S.based airlines, flying from 280 cities in 105 countries, according to Homeland Security. About 2,000 international flights land in the United States daily. The original laptop and electronics ban has been in place since March amid concerns about an undisclosed threat

described only as sophisticated and ongoing. That ban applied to nonstop flights to the United States from Amman, Jordan; Kuwait City, Kuwait; Cairo; Istanbul; Jeddah and Riyadh, Saudi Arabia; Casablanca, Morocco; Doha, Qatar; and Dubai and Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates. The roughly 50 affected flights are on foreign airlines. The government had considered expanding the laptop ban to include some European airports, though in recent public comments Kelly had suggested the government was looking at alternatives.

A new survey shows a dramatic shift in attitudes toward favoring gay marriage among a younger generation of white evangelical Christians, a faith group often seen as very conservative. Just a decade ago, younger evangelicals and older evangelicals felt similarly on the issue, according to the Pew Research Center. But a new survey suggests that the generational divide has grown much wider. Almost half of evangelicals born after 1964 now favor gay marriage. According to Pew, 47 percent of Generation X/ millennial evangelicals (born after 1964) favor gay marriage, compared with 26 percent of boomer and older evangelicals (born between 1928 and 1964). Support for same-sex marriage is at its highest point overall, with 62 percent of those asked favoring it and 32 percent opposing it. In 2010, Pew found that less than half of Americans supported it. Matthew Vines, who started the Reformation Project, a group that wants to change churches’ attitudes on LGBT issues, believes there’s a trend toward evangelicals affirming gay marriage. Attitude shifts won’t happen overnight, Vines said. “It’s important that young evangelicals have changed their mind, but it’s not enough to create institutional change,” he said.

Who’s afraid of Trump? GOP senators feel free ‘to go their own way,’ don’t fear retaliation from the president

I before E? That spelling rule is a bit of an L-I-E.

PHILIP RUCKER, ROBERT COSTA AND ASHLEY

“I before E, except after C.” The familiar mnemonic is time-honored, its primacy acknowledged in English grammar textbooks since 1866. But like many, many other rules in the English language, it turns out this one is built on a foundation of lies. A University of Warwick statistician named Nathan Cunningham recently decided to put the I-before-E rule to the test. So he plugged a list of 350,000 English words into a statistical program to see if the math checked out. First, does I usually come before E? It does in roughly three -quarters of all words with either an “ie” or an “ei” pairing. For the second part — “except after C” — Cunningham selected all words in his data set with either a “cei” or “cie” spelling. He found that “cie” words outnumber “cei” words by about three to one. The ratio of “ie” to “ei” is exactly the same for the after-C words as it is for all words in general. “You still have roughly three to one odds that the ‘I’ goes first,” Cunningham writes. As it turns out, for every “ceiling,” there’s a “concierge,” a “conscience” and some “celibacies.” For every “deceit,” there are “deficiencies,” “delicacies” and a “dicier.” To put it another way: The iciest glaciers make idiocies out of the conceit of “except after C.”

POLITICS Scrambling to line up support for the Republican health care bill, President Trump got on the phone Monday with Sen. Mike Lee, R-Utah, and urged him to back the measure. The president’s personal plea was not enough. On Tuesday, Lee said he would vote against the bill. Senate GOP leaders later postponed the planned health care vote because too many other Republican senators also opposed — for now, at least — legislation that would deliver on Trump’s campaign promise to scale back the law known as Obamacare. Trump had hoped for a swift and easy win on health care this week. Instead, he got a delay and a return to the negotiating table — the latest reminder of the limits of his power to shape outcomes at the opposite end of Pennsylvania Avenue. History suggests that presidents who have governed successfully have been both revered and feared. But Republican fixtures in Washington are beginning to conclude that Trump may be neither, despite his mix of bravado, threats and efforts to schmooze with GOP lawmakers. “This president is the first president in our history who has neither political nor military experience, and thus it has been a challenge to him to learn how to interact with Congress and learn how to push his agenda better,” said Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, who opposes the current health care bill. In private conversations on Capitol Hill, Trump is often not taken seriously. Some Republican lawmakers consider

They are exhausted and at times exasperated by his hopscotching from one subject to the next, chronicled in his pithy and provocative tweets. They are quick to point out how little command he demonstrates of policy. And they have come to regard some of his threats as empty. “The House health care vote shows he does have juice, particularly with people on the right,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said. “The Senate health care vote shows that people feel that health care is a defining issue and that it’d be pretty hard for any politician to push a senator into taking a vote that’s going to have consequences for the rest of their life.” Asked if he personally fears Trump, Graham chuckled before saying, “No.” Rep.

That’s the ‘Art of the Deal’ side.” One senior Republican close to both the White House and many senators called Trump and his political operation “a paper tiger,” noting how many GOP lawmakers feel free “to go their own way.” “Members are political entrepreneurs, and they react to what they see in the political marketplace,” said the Republican, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid alienating the White House. John Weaver, a GOP consultant and frequent Trump critic, was blunter in explaining why Trump has been unable to rule with a hammer. “When you have a 35 percent approval rating and you’re under FBI investigation, you don’t have a hammer.”

Some political leaders skeptical about validity of assault; no one hurt CARACAS, VENEZUELA A stolen police helicopter fired on Venezuela’s Supreme Court and Interior Ministry in what President Nicolas Maduro said was a thwarted terrorist attack aimed at ousting him from power. The incident, which may ratchet up tensions in a country already paralyzed by months of deadly anti-government protests, took place as Maduro was speaking live on state television Tuesday and as the high court handed down a series of rulings against the opposition. He later said the helicopter had fired on the pro-government court with grenades, one of which didn’t go off, helping avoid any loss of life. There were no injuries from the attack and no visible signs of damage outside either of the government buildings Wednesday morning. National Assembly President Julio Borges expressed doubts about Maduro’s version of events. “There are people who say it was a government-staged hoax, others who say it was real. … Whatever it was, it all points in the same direction: that the situation in Venezuela is unsustainable,” Borges said Wednesday.

Some speculate that Perez’s actions were a planted distraction from Maduro’s further consolidation of power. Maduro said Perez used to fly for ex-interior minister, Miguel Rodriguez Torres, whom Maduro accused of working for the CIA, bolstering the government’s case that Perez was taking instructions from the CIA. Rodriguez Torres, who has been leading a campaign against Maduro made up of leftist supporters, dismissed the accusation as baseless. JOSHUA GOODMAN (AP)

On Tuesday, pictures of a blue police helicopter carrying an anti-government banner appeared on social media around the same time as a video in which an apparent police pilot and budding movie actor, identified as Oscar Perez, called for a rebellion against Maduro’s “tyranny.” Perez said he was part of a coalition of renegade members of the country’s security forces. Security forces were being deployed to apprehend Perez as well as recover the stolen German-built Bolkow helicopter.

Chris Paul, left, joins James Harden after Houston made a huge trade days before free agency.

THREE POINTERS

Jackson’s mistakes

Rockets’ plan goes beyond landing Paul ANALYSIS Throughout Daryl Morey’s tenure as general manager of the Rockets, he’s abided by a clear, simple game plan: collect talent, and figure out the rest. After the trade Morey pulled off Wednesday, Houston has plenty of figuring out to do. In exchange for superstar Clippers point guard Chris Paul, the Rockets will send guards Patrick Beverley and Lou Williams, forwards Sam Dekker and Montrezl Harrell, a protected 2018 first-round pick and some non-guaranteed salaries to L.A., The Washington Post confirmed. By pairing Paul with James Harden to form one of the most lethal partnerships in the NBA, Morey is pushing his game plan to the limit. How Paul fits with Harden and coach Mike D’Antoni will be fascinating to see.

Harden, who finished as the runner-up for NBA MVP for the second time in three seasons, campaigned for Paul to join him in Houston’s backcourt. Paul could have talked to multiple teams on the open market when free agency opens Saturday, but by opting into his deal for next season and facilitating this trade, Paul made it clear he wanted to play for the Rockets — and, specifically, wanted to play with Harden. That doesn’t mean there won’t be growing pains. This feels more like Dwyane Wade and LeBron James teaming up with the Heat in 2010 than Kevin Durant joining the Warriors last summer. Durant felt like he was created to play alongside Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Draymond Green; Wade and James, despite their close friendship, had to learn how to share the ball to make their partnership work. The move also means that the Rockets aren’t done chasing talent this summer.

No one is more active, or tries to make more moves, than Morey, who has gone from the hot seat a year ago to resuming his spot as one of the most secure executives in the league. The biggest trade piece out there is Paul George, who told the Pacers he won’t re-sign with them when he’s a free agent next summer. A Houston package highlighted by shooting guard Eric Gordon could entice the Pacers. Gordon, the newly minted Sixth Man of the Year, is on a fantastic contract for roughly $13 million over the next three years and played in college at Indiana to boot.

After signing a $60 million deal in 2014, Jackson gave Derek Fisher his first head coaching job but had to can him after he posted a 40-96 mark over parts of two years.

2 Investing in Noah Last summer, Jackson signed injury-plagued big man Joakim Noah, 32, to a fouryear, $72 million deal. Noah averaged 5.0 points in 46 games before a knee injury.

1 Alienating superstars The most bizarre part of Jackson’s tenure has been spats with Carmelo Anthony, whom he’s often criticized, and Kristaps Porzingis, whom he has dangled as trade bait.

Catcher cut for criticisms MLB A day after blaming pitcher Jake Arrieta for allowing seven stolen bases by the Nationals, catcher Miguel Montero said goodbye to Chicago and the Cubs, who designated him for assignment. Montero, 33, posted a series of tweets Wednesday saying farewell to fans and the city. The Cubs dropped him after he criticized starter Jake Arrieta for not being better at holding runners on base in a 6-1 loss Tuesday night at Nationals Park. Montero has thrown out just one of 31 potential base stealers this year while hitting .286 with four homers and eight RBIs in

44 games. No. 1 catcher Willson Contreras has thrown out 16 of 31 potential base stealers this year. Montero unloaded on Arrieta after the loss Tuesday, saying the Nationals were running all over Arrieta because they knew he

was slow to the plate and that he was giving him no time to throw anyone out. “It really sucked because the stolen bases go to me, and when you really look at it, the pitcher doesn’t give me any time,” he said. Trea Turner stole four bases, Michael Taylor two and Anthony Rendon one to set a franchise single-game record for the Nats. Montero also had a throwing error that led to a run scoring. After the game, manager Joe Maddon said Arrieta and Montero working together was “an imperfect situation.” Last season, Montero drove in the winning run in Game 7 of the World Series against Cleveland, ending the Cubs’ title drought. “We do not win the ring without him,” Maddon said during spring training.

‘I Forget Where We Were’

Ben Howard

Isbell often listens to this ethereal, oddly structured 2014 song from the U.K. singer. “The lyric starts with the line, ‘Oh, hey, I wasn’t listening,’ ” Isbell says. “I just love that — how it just sorta stumbles into somebody’s living room.”

‘B.O.B.’ OutKast

To Isbell, this adrenalized 2000 track represents the Atlanta rap duo at its best. “I think it’s peak Andre [3000],” he says. “The flow is incredible and it’s got two very specific segments, which makes it, to me, very Beatles-y.”

‘Old Five and Dimers Like Me’

Billy Joe Shaver

“I have this fixation on songwriters who write songs about being an old person but who aren’t an old person,” Isbell says of this 1973 song by the country singer. It also reminds him of the first time he saw his wife play fiddle, which was with Shaver.

The unseen side of Sylvia Plath

The Cliffs Notes version of Sylvia Plath’s story is this: Shy, confessional poet achieves literary success and pens a semiautobiographical novel, “The Bell Jar,” in her 20s; she endures a stormy marriage to writer Ted Hughes; after struggling with anxiety and depression, she commits suicide in 1963 at age 30. To focus Plath’s legacy solely on her poetic genius, though, is to overlook that other dimension of her talents — the visual arts — says Dorothy Moss, co-curator of the National Portrait Gallery exhibit “One Life: Sylvia Plath,” which opens Friday. The gallery is touting the exhibit as the first exploration by an art museum of Plath’s visual imagination — evident in self-portraits, sketches, collages and family photographs. The collection features THE LILLY LIBRARY, INDIANA UNIVERSITY/ESTATE OF SYLVIA PLATH

images from the Plath archives at Smith College and Indiana University’s Lilly Library, as well as private collections. “A lot of her image has been in terms of a writer, and this is more a complete picture of her as both a visual artist and a writer,” Moss says. ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS) National Portrait Gallery, Eighth and F Streets NW; Fri. through May 20, 2018; free.

Triple-face portrait, 1950-51 | The colorful, patterned drawing, completed while Plath was studying at Smith College, spotlights her fascination with conflicted identifies. “She understood her identity as a very complex one — one that could be shaped and manipulated for the purpose of her own advancement and career,” Moss says. During her college years, “she was writing, growing up and becoming a professional at a time when there were a lot of challenges for women.”

MORTIMER RARE BOOK COLLECTION, SMITH COLLEGE

‘ ‘Twas the Night Before Monday,’ undated | Plath’s childhood sketch and singsong poem about family life on a Sunday night is “representative of her whimsical nature and her sense of humor,” Moss says. “Often, people don’t know her lighter side, and I wanted to make sure her full personality was represented.”

Collage, 1960 | Dwight D. Eisenhower, Richard Nixon and a bomber plane appear in Plath’s collage, a response to the political upheaval of the era. “She was very much someone who was engaged with her time,” Moss says. “And she was very concerned about the impact of war on children. She was a young mother when she made this, and I think she was increasingly concerned about the world her children would grow up in.”

GORDON LAMEYER

THE LILLY LIBRARY, INDIANA UNIVERSITY/ESTATE OF SYLVIA PLATH

Plath’s childhood ponytail with mother’s inscription, 1945 | Yes, that’s Plath’s actual ponytail, saved by her mother, Aurelia. “It’s a very touching and poignant keepsake,” Moss says, particularly given that mother and daughter had a fraught relationship. “They both had strong personalities and often clashed with each other, but the ponytail symbolizes the tenderness of Aurelia’s feelings toward her daughter.” And, Moss says, it’s a glimpse of Plath’s hair in its natural darker color.

Sylvia ‘Marilyn’ shot, 1954 | Plath was known for experimenting with different looks — platinum hair on Cape Cod, for instance, or a turn as a brunette when applying for a Fulbright scholarship. “She had these different sides to her personality, and she definitely manipulated her physical image depending on where she was and how she wanted to be seen by the people around her,” Moss says. “She would dye her hair [blonde] when she wanted to look more glamorous, and then back to a darker shade to look more academic.”

Don’t just come for the birds THE FOLKS AT CHICKEN + WHISKEY (1738 14TH ST. NW), the new spot from Star Restaurant Group that opened last week, want to get you

your food quickly, just like a fast-casual restaurant should. But they don’t want you to leave so fast. In the evening, after you’ve tried the South American dishes on chef Enrique Limardo’s packed menu, you can head to the hidden back bar, which slings drinks and welcomes occasional visits from DJs. Partners Desmond Reilly and Charles Koch helped us break down both halves. LORI McCUE (EXPRESS) Limardo has added Asian flavors to some dishes to reflect the wave of Chinese influence in Venezuelan cooking. It’s most explicit in the Chifa Noodles: seared chicken, cilantro, peanuts, shrimp and mango atop rice noodles.

Chicken

Whiskey

The bar offers 66 varieties of whiskey to sip on alone or mixed into a classic cocktail. Don’t know where to start? Try the rotating whiskey of the week.

Ask for the inti salsa picante, a smoky sauce invented the day the restaurant opened. When customers asked for hot sauce, Koch said, Limardo popped down to the kitchen “and came back with this amazing hot sauce he’d just made.”

Koch has placed selections from his personal vinyl collection near the bar’s record player. On nights when a DJ is in, customers can make requests from the stack.

Sides include the traditional rice, black beans and thick yuca fries. Less expected are the fried sweet plantains served with sour cream and guasacaca, which Reilly calls “Venezuelan guacamole.” Rotisserie birds by the quarter or half are the star, but chicken comes in other preparations: tucked into sandwiches or wraps, atop salads, in soups and fried inside the cheesy Nacho’s Wrap.

The bar is dim and hidden behind an unassuming metal door, like a walk-in refrigerator might have. The hole-in-the-wall vibe makes it a perfect final stop on a night out.

Some items from the front kitchen are available at the bar, including the yuca fries and chicken wings tossed in mango guava, barbecue or chipotle whiskey sauces.

Both sides attract a crowd: The bar was full this past Saturday night, and Reilly says 500 customers ate at the restaurant on day one.

There’s a small list of cocktails made with a variety of spirits. All are $10 except for the $6 PBR Fully Dressed: a PBR tallboy with hot sauce, lime and salt.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER

The Anacostia River is experiencing a major comeback. On a nice day you might find people jogging along the shoreline at Anacostia Park, playing beach volleyball near Bardo or taking in a ’90s cover band at Yards Park. The Anacostia isn’t quite swimmable yet — heavy rains still send flotillas of trash surfing down the river on waves of raw sewage — but two companies are now vying to get people a little closer to the water on kayaks, canoes and other, stranger, conveyances. One company, Boating in D.C., set up shop on a dock behind Nationals Park in 2013. I rented a kayak from them the weekend they opened and was amazed by all the wildlife I saw on the busy urban waterway. I found muskrats swimming in and out of little submerged huts. On the shore, great blue herons speared fish in the mud. And I saw a pair of ospreys building a tractortire-size nest on a pylon of the South Capitol Street bridge. I’ve been a loyal customer ever since, but Boating in D.C. just got some competition: A half mile away, on the eastern side of Yards Park, Capital SUP opened this month. In addition to kayaks, Capital SUP, as the name implies, also rents standup paddleboards — basically

surfboards that you propel around with kayak paddles. Though I generally prefer sitting down to standing up, I decided to give paddleboarding a try — and was immediately dissuaded from doing so. Brian, the tan, athleticlooking man at the Capital SUP kiosk, suggested an alternative that, he explained, was less likely to result in me swimming in Anacostia sewage water. “You should try a pedalboard,” he said, gesturing toward another surfboard-like contraption with a tall handlebar in the middle and low, elliptical-like pedals set into the board. “They are much easier and more stable than paddleboards.” That sounded good to me, so I signed a waiver without reading it and handed Brian $25 for an hour-long rental. Brian put the board into the water, explained how to steer it with the little rudder controls on the handlebars and told me to hop on. As I stepped cautiously onto the board, it immediately tried to tip me into the water. “You said this was stable,” I whined. “Pedal faster,” Brian instructed. I started pumping the pedals vigorously up and down and found that the board felt less wobbly. Staying out of sewage water is quite motivating, it turns out. “You’re getting the hang of it,” said Brian, who was rapidly receding in the distance.

Sink or pedal: I’m up for adventure on the Anacostia

“Don’t forget to look up” was the last piece of advice I heard. I eventually grew confident enough to lift my gaze beyond the 3-inch patch of water immediately in front of me and discovered a wonderful view. The late-afternoon light made the water sparkle, and I could see catfish moving just below the surface. I headed toward the osprey nest, hoping to see some baby bird beaks, but the parents warned me off. Unnerved by my height or perhaps my speed, mama osprey stood on the edge of the nest, fixed me with her yellow eyes and screeched until I was well out of sight. After about 20 minutes of strenuous pedalboarding, I was thirsty and out of breath. But every time I slowed down, the board tilted dangerously underneath me, so I continued down the river at quite a clip. As a result, I didn’t see the great blue heron sitting on an overhanging branch until I was nearly

Capital SUP pro tip: Pedalboarding is a great workout, but risky for the balance-impaired. underneath him. We were both startled, and he hit his wing against a tree, causing him to lose a big, blue-gray feather before he beat a hasty retreat to the other side of the river. The feather landed in the water by my feet, but I didn’t have enough faith in my balance to lean down and pick it up. The muskrats were nowhere to be seen, but I did zoom pass a pair of kayakers. “What is that?” they shouted. “It’s a pedalboard!” I said. “Do I look stupid?” By the time they answered, I was yards away and unable to hear them over the sound of my own panting. Let’s assume they said I looked really cool.

All told, I spent about 45 minutes upsetting wildlife and impressing fellow boaters before returning the pedalboard to Brian. “How was it?” he asked. “Great!” I said, so out of breath I was only able to manage a one-word answer. I wasn’t lying. Pedalboarding may not be the best way to peacefully commune with nature, but it’s certainly exhilarating — like riding a bike for the first time. It’s also a killer workout — as I write this two days later, I’m still sore all over, including my core, a part of my body I generally reserve for Ben & Jerry’s storage. That said, I’ll probably stick to kayaking on the Anacostia for now, but I look forward to pedalboarding or maybe even paddleboarding once we stop dumping sewage into this otherwise lovely river. In two weeks, The Staycationer visits the National Archives.

weekendpass It’s not like anything exciting is going on in real-life Russia, so we might as well turn to the movies. “Moscow Never Sleeps” follows five characters on Moscow City Day, a citywide holiday. A businessman, a singer and an aging film star are among those whose stories are woven together to form a narrative from Johnny O’Reilly, an Irish writer and director who lived in the Russian capital for 12 years. Maybe seeing some of Russia’s biggest actors on screen can cool the, um, complicated relationship between our two countries. Landmark E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW; opens Fri., $9.50-$12. (O’Reilly will attend Q&A sessions after the 7:15 p.m. shows Friday and Saturday.)

Lincoln Summer Movie Series

SNAPSHOT FILMS

‘Moscow Never Sleeps’

In the day-in-the-life drama “Moscow Never Sleeps,” Ilya and Katya (Oleg Dolin and Evgenia Brik) have to come up with some other use for this bed.

Eclectic summer movie series are everywhere, and now the Lincoln Theatre is getting in the game. On most Wednesdays, you can see films both old and new. Well, new-ish. Next week brings Spike Lee’s 1989 joint “Do the Right Thing,” and upcoming films include “Mad Max: Fury Road,” “The Big Lebowski” and “Blazing Saddles.” (And if you haven’t seen “Blazing Saddles” in a theater, you need to. It’s an entirely different experience from watching it at home. Or on TV, when they bleep out the N-word, thereby changing the entire message of the film.) It’s a good way to celebrate your summer hump days. Lincoln Theatre, 1215 U St. NW; most Wednesdays through Sept. 6, 8 p.m., $10.

‘Hired Gun’

Remember the Oscar-winning 2013 documentary “20 Feet From Stardom,” about some of the best background singers in the business? Now there’s “Hired Gun,” which shines a light on backing musicians. Those who have played with Billy Joel, Alice Cooper and stars of just about every genre in between finally get to take center stage in this doc, which is getting a onenight-only screening across the country. Not only will you get to see the big names, you’ll also hear from the figures who live in the shadows beyond the spotlight. Various locations; Thu., 7:30 p.m., various prices, go to fathomevents. com for details and participating theaters. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Dissent through Legos

Behind Ai Weiwei’s alpaca obsession The alpaca featured in Ai Weiwei’s wallpaper piece, “The Plain Version of the Animal That Looks Like a Llama but Is Really an Alpaca,” isn’t your average ungulate. The icon is a popular representation of a mythical beast called the “grass-mud horse” that appeared on a Chinese internet portal in 2009. When spoken aloud using a particular tonal inflection, the innocuous written characters for “grass-mud horse” sound like an insult that translates to English as “F--- your mother.” What began as a clever way to get around internet censors, the Chinese characters for grass-mud horse — and the alpacalike icon that’s come to represent them — have become a symbol for the fight for free speech in China. S.D.

Lego portraits of famous and lesser-known activists from across the globe fill the floor of the Hirshhorn’s second-level gallery.

then had volunteers assemble the Lego portraits at the prison. Surprisingly, the artist didn’t face official retaliation and has since been allowed to travel outside the country. “He’s going to see ‘Trace’ in person for the first time, here at the Hirshhorn,” museum director Melissa Chiu says. The Alcatraz exhibit — which included a station where visitors could write postcards to some of the prisoners featured in “Trace” — was more overtly political than the Hirshhorn’s presentation,

Ai Weiwei was under house arrest in China when he created “Trace.”

AI WEI WEI STUDIO

The people featured in the piece include familiar faces, such as Martin Luther King Jr. and Edward Snowden, but “Trace” is largely made up of lesser-known activists, several of whom are currently imprisoned for their beliefs. For example, one of the portraits is of Ilham Tohti, an economics professor in Beijing who frequently ran afoul of Chinese officials by reporting on the oppression of Chinese ethnic minorities — and was sentenced to life in prison in September 2014. Ai courted a similar fate just by creati ng “ T race.” I n the months before the work’s debut at Alcatraz (also in September 2014), Ai was already under house arrest in Beijing for criticizing the Chinese government. That didn’t stop him from working quietly for months before the exhibit opened, when he sent blueprints fo r t h e p o r t r a i t s t o S a n Francisco-based curators who

which doesn’t include the postcard area, Chiu says. “ W hen it wa s show n at Alcatraz, ‘Trace’ had more of an emphasis on the idea of these individuals having been imprisoned,” she says. “Here, it’s making another kind of very important statement about the internet and surveillance and this moment in time where we are transitioning from the analog to the digital.” Visitors to the Hirshhorn might notice how the portraits in “Trace” represent a mishmash of

styles, colors and sizes, as if they were photos grabbed haphazardly from the internet. The use of Lego blocks references the centrality of the internet to modern life by creating a pixelated effect reminiscent of low-quality digital photos, Chiu notes. Ai is also interested in internet censorship, social media and gover n ment su r vei l l a nc e — three themes emphasized by a wallpaper he created that encircles the Hirshhorn installation of “Trace,” Chiu says. Called “The Plain Version

of the Animal That Looks Like a Llama but Is Really an Alpaca,” the wallpaper features repeating images of surveillance cameras, the Twitter bird logo and an alpaca icon that represents the fight against internet censorship in China. (See sidebar above.) “I think what he’s saying with the title [of the wallpaper] is that you may think you know what you’re seeing, but there’s a secondary meaning that you have to look closer to get,” Chiu says.

EXHIBITS The Hirshhorn and Alcatraz — two fortress-like structures known for large expanses of windowless concrete — are about to have one more thing in common. A work by Chinese artist Ai Weiwei that debuted at San Francisco’s defunct island prison has come to the D.C. contemporary art museum in the exhibit “Ai Weiwei: Trace at Hirshhorn.” The sprawling horizontal work “Trace” connects 176 portraits of people Ai considers to be activists, prisoners of conscience or advocates of free speech — and it’s all rendered on the floor in Lego bricks. The piece, which stretches around the Hirshorn’s secondfloor gallery space in six large segments, required more than 1.2 million Legos to complete and was transported to D.C. mostly assembled, the museum says. It will remain on display for the rest of the year.

After working the Nashville machine, Sunny Sweeney teamed with Thirty Tigers Records to release music under her own imprint, Aunt Daddy. Her latest, March’s “Trophy,” is full of smart, funny country songs. On opener “Pass the Pain,” the brokenhearted narrator tries to convince a head-shaking bartender to give her one more drink. On the next song, the same narrator contemplates an ill-advised one-night stand and asks the guy if he has a “Better Bad Idea.”

Broadway took its shot at a live-action version of “The Little Mermaid” long before Disney started reworking all of its animated tales with actors, and the musical snagged Grammy and Tony nominations in 2008.

Think of Boogarins as the Tame Impala of Brazil. The four 20-somethings built up a following for their experimental psychedelic rock — sung in Portuguese — in their homeland before taking their music to the U.S. Earlier this month, Boogarins surprise-released their third album, “La Vem a Morte,” which translates to “Here Comes the Death.” It’s a dark record sonically, and even if you can’t understand the words, you’ll get the sentiment. As singer Francisco “Dino” Almeida writes on the band’s website, “These songs are a reflection of the lack of sensibility in which we live.”

entertainment Kumail (Kumail Nanjiani) and Emily (Zoe Kazan) hope their love story ends with happily ever after.

LIONSGATE

The truth is out there — but it’s imbalanced

While she was sleeping … ‘The Big Sick’ portrays its writers’ real-life love story — coma and all FILM In the movies, when a young woman falls into a deep sleep thanks to a strange spell, true love’s kiss is what wakes her. The minute she opens her eyes, she knows he’s the one for her, and they gallop off on his horse into the sunset of happily ever after. Not in “The Big Sick,” when the spell is a medically induced coma and the guy at the lady’s bedside is actually her ex. Then romance takes a back seat. “This character has just been though a life-threatening illness,” star and co-writer Kumail Nanjiani says of the young woman in the rom-com.

“She doesn’t give a s--- about her love life!” says Emily Gordon, the other writer. “Even if he’s the best guy in the world, who cares?” And Gordon would know. “The Big Sick,” opening Friday, is a lightly fictionalized take on her and now-husband’s Nanjiani’s real-life courtship (even their names remain the same). After meeting in a comedy club where Kumail (Nanjiani) is performing, he and Emily (Zoe Kazan) begin a casual romance. As their emotions deepen, however, Kumail has to deal with the fact that his Pakistani parents expect him to follow their cultural tradition and enter into an arranged marriage. That’s enough to impede any relationship, but when Emily breaks up with him and then is diagnosed

with adult-onset Still’s disease, a rare form of arthritis that can be life-threatening, and is placed in a medically induced coma, things really hit a bump. With his wooing of Emily on pause, Kumail finds himself in the hospital waiting, worrying and engaging in various awkward conversations with Emily’s parents (Ray Romano and Holly Hunter). “Emily’s parents stand in for Emily,” Gordon says. “While she’s absent, Kumail is actually romancing and trying to win over these two human beings who made the woman he’s falling in love with. It was how we tried to make it a rom-com even though one person in the rom-com was not there.” Directed by “Wet Hot American Summer” co-writer and star

2.66M

Michael Showalter, “The Big Sick” is indeed romantic and comedic, but several scenes were particularly hard for Nanjiani, who had to revisit some very tough days. “Even now, when I smell a certain type of [hospital] tape, it takes me back” to 2007, when Gordon’s real-life medical crisis took place, says Nanjiani, a regular on HBO’s “Silicon Valley.” For the scenes in the hospital, acting them “was easier because I knew those feelings, but emotionally it’s draining to have to relive through the worst experience of your life.” Those days, Nanjiani says, give the film its emotional resonance and take it beyond the fairy-tale trope. “We wanted to show the messiness of being in love,” he says.

TV RATINGS

The average number of viewers who tuned in to “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” nightly last week, according to the Nielsen company. The show retook the lead in late-night viewership from Stephen Colbert’s “The Late Show” for the first time since Donald Trump became president. CBS’ Colbert, with his sharp anti-Trump humor, eclipsed longtime leader Fallon the week after Trump’s January inauguration and hasn’t looked back. But Colbert was just a whisker behind Fallon last week, averaging 2.62 million viewers. (AP) Michael Bond, creator of Paddington Bear, died Tuesday at age 91

TELEVISION As “X-Files” gears up for 2018’s 11th season, which follows a reboot of the 1990s series in 2016, IndieWire reported that creator Chris Carter has, as of now, enlisted only male writers. All of them, including Carter, are “X-Files” alumni. Darin Morgan and Glen Morgan each wrote an episode last season, according to TVLine, and Brad Follmer, Gabe Rotter and Benjamin Van Allen have all been assistants. It’s normal for TV writers to rise through the ranks, but in 2017, it’s worth asking: How is a major network show so dominated by male voices? It fits with a broader gender imbalance on broadcast TV’s fall lineup. Variety noted that network shows airing in the 2017-18 season have low levels of female talent. Of the 39 new series ordered by ABC, CBS, the CW, Fox and NBC, only 35 percent of lead actors and 29 percent of showrunners were female. “X-Files” has also come under fire in the past for the differing treatment of lead actors Gillian Anderson and David Duchovny. Though they eventually received equal pay for the revival, Anderson told The Hollywood Reporter she was initially offered half of Duchovny’s offer. “Especially in this climate of women talking about the reality of [unequal pay] in this business,” Anderson told The Daily Beast last year, “I think it’s important that it gets heard and voiced.” SONIA RAO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Michelle Rodriguez says on Instagram she’ll exit “Fast & Furious” if franchise doesn’t give women better parts

“Some things are better left unsaid and Guy’s Donkey Sauce is one of them.” @BRANDONGBLAKE, tweeting after spiky-haired celebrity chef Guy Fieri revealed to Thrillist what’s in his “Donkey Sauce.” Spoiler alert — it’s just aioli (garlic mayonnaise). “I called it Donkey Sauce because you have to make fun of it,” Fieri said. @SeventyMeters disagreed, tweeting: “Donkey Sauce is a state of mind if you’re eating aioli.”

@CHEATHWFTV, tweeting about a possible set of twins, Chicago Cubs owner Tom Ricketts and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas. The two met Wednesday in D.C. It’s been pointed out in the past that the two look alike, but in person, their similarity really came through. Just for reference, Ricketts is on the left and Cruz is on the right. “If I saw Ricketts in the Capitol I’d honestly mistake him for Cruz. The resemblance is unreal,” @CahnEmily tweeted about the pair. Twitter user @MEPFuller even came up with a conjoined name for them: Ted Cricketts.

acting inappropriately with an Irish journalist. Reporter Caitriona Perry was in Trump’s office while he was on a call with Ireland’s new prime minister. Trump called her over to his desk and said on the phone, “She has a nice smile on her face so I bet she treats you well.” @loudlong tweeted that it was straight out of a “sexual harassment training video.”

@JEMELEHILL, noticing that Patriots coach Bill Belichick’s photoshoot for Nantucket Magazine with longtime girlfriend Linda Holliday looks like an ad for erectile dysfunction medication. Twitter had a field day with the photo spread. “He has literally no idea how to smile,” @Matthew_Tynan tweeted.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You can give yourself more of a fighting chance simply by stating your case more directly. Someone is eager to see you be bolder.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) How you react to someone else’s behavior will tell you a lot about your own. There are things you’ll want to adjust.

TODAY: High pressure sets up off the Mid-Atlantic coast, which means the return of more typical summer heat and humidity. With dew points around 60, the humidity is still on the lower side for late June, but not nearly as dry as the previous few days. The mugginess continues its steady increase through the evening.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’re likely to build quite a head of steam quickly. Others will be impressed by your ability to avoid certain obstacles. ARIES (March 21-April 19) You are far more likely to win the day if you give others a little more free rein. The truth is, you can’t do it all by yourself. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Your confidence may actually be holding you back, as it prevents you from seeing a better way of performing a certain task.

BOYFRIENDS

Rihanna gets cozy with giant pile of money

Pretty people population grows by one Supermodel Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and her fiance, Jason Statham, have welcomed their first baby together, a boy named Jack Oscar Statham. HuntingtonWhiteley shared the news Wednesday on Instagram. “Our little man arrived! Jack Oscar Statham 8.8 lbs on Saturday June 24th,” she wrote, accompanied by a black-and-white photo of the baby grabbing his mother’s finger. (EXPRESS)

Rihanna was photographed this week in a pool at a Spanish villa kissing a person whom tabloids dubbed a “mystery man.” The Daily Mail uncovered his identity in a Wednesday report, writing that he is Saudi businessman Hassan Jameel, whose family owns the rights to sell Toyota cars in Saudi Arabia and has a net worth of $1.5 billion. He was also reportedly romantically linked to Naomi Campbell, who was once close with Rihanna, but, as of recently, appeared to be in a low-profile feud with her. A source told Britain’s The Sun that Rihanna’s relationship is “the real deal” and she told friends she’s in love. (EXPRESS)

‘The Big Bang Theory’ star’s house burns down in a fire

World to finally find out who Meghan Markle is

“Big Bang Theory” star Johnny Galecki’s home on a ranch in the San Luis Obispo area of California has been destroyed in a wildfire, a spokeswoman for the actor said. By Tuesday night, a 2½-square-mile wildfire in the region was 60 percent contained. About 250 residents were ordered from their homes in the area of Santa Margarita after the blaze erupted Monday. (AP)

Actress Meghan Markle and her family are going to be the subject of new reality show, according to Britain’s The Sun. The series will follow Markle, who is currently dating Prince Harry, while also providing “candid interviews with friends and relatives.” “Meghan is a hot topic right now and everyone is interested in her,” a source told The Sun. “They want to discover new things about her family. It could be dramatic.” (EXPRESS)
