FOOTBALL Last season, the Washington Redskins debuted a fan pavilion beneath the scoreboard in the west end zone at FedEx Field, an open-air space for anyone with a ticket for any seat in the stadium to congregate, eat and drink while still keeping an eye on the game.

The reaction to the renovation from fans was so positive, according to Chris Bloyer, the Redskins’ senior vice president of stadium operations and guest experience, that the team will install a similar space beneath the scoreboard in the east end zone this summer.

At Wednesday’s open house for media members and several hundred season ticket members, Bloyer said construction on the Bud Light Party Pavilion will be completed by Washington’s home opener against the Dallas Cowboys on Sept. 15.

Also on Wednesday, the team announced that the chicken tenders of Food Network star and Flavortown Mayor Guy Fieri are coming to FedEx Field.

Redskins hope chicken and a new fan pavilion will boost attendance

Construction is underway on a new fan pavilion beneath the scoreboard.

The renovation, a new season ticket member benefits program called “Redskins Gold” as well as Fieri’s chicken are all part of the team’s efforts to make FedEx Field a more attractive destination after Washington ranked last in the NFL in percentage of stadium capacity filled last season.

The new space in the east end zone will open three hours before kickoff, feature a 90-foot bar, a stage for live bands and two outdoor suites. It required the removal of roughly 300

Now, about those chicken tenders. Chicken Guy is the neverfrozen chicken tenders-and-fries concept from Fieri and Planet Hollywood founder Robert Earl.

Chicken Guy offers 22 — yes, 22 — sauces, including Fieri’s trademark Donkey Sauce, Cumin Lime Mojo, Nashville Hot Honey and Sweet Sriracha BBQ. Other new concessions for 2019 include funnel cake fries at the stadium’s Boardwalk Fries locations and a variety of sandwiches from Firehouse Subs on the main concourse.

Alexandria-based Territory Foods will offer several gluten-, dairy- and refined sugar-free items, and Ben’s Chili Bowl, a staple at the stadium for years, is adding a veggie dog and vegan chili to its menu.

Jace Gonnerman, the beverage director at Meridian Pint, Smoke & Barrel and Brookland Pint, is back as the Redskins’ craft beer consultant and will help decide which local breweries and beers to feature throughout the season, like Port City Optimal Wit and Union Divine IPA.

Gun debate drives Va. races Fizzled special session spurs many advocates to pressure candidates

Tense incidents prompt effort to reform police STEVE EARLEY (THE VIRGINIAN-PILOT VIA AP)

POLITICS Deep-pocketed interest groups and activists on both sides of the fight over gun laws are gearing up for a major clash in Virginia, now a key election battleground in the issue after Republicans on Tuesday adjourned a special legislative session called by the governor to consider gun-control measures after a mass shooting.

The state’s off-year election will be closely watched because Virginia is the only state where control of the legislature is up for grabs in 2019. Republicans currently hold a narrow majority.

GOP lawmakers abruptly ended the session after less than two hours and postponed movement on gun laws until after the November election. Democrats and gun-control advocates vowed to force them from office.

“If these ‘leaders’ won’t enact solutions that their own constituents are demanding, then we’re going to fight tooth and nail for representatives who will,” Kris Brown, president of the Brady gun-control group, said in a statement.

Scores of gun-control advocates gathered Tuesday outside the Capitol, jeering at Republicans. Meanwhile, hundreds of gun-rights supporters entered a legislative office building to meet with lawmakers in a show of force against stricter gun laws.

National Rifle Association

Gun-rights advocates stormed the Virginia Capitol on Tuesday to protest proposed restrictions.

spokeswoma n C atheri ne Mortensen called it “deja vu in Virginia.”

“Time and time again the hundreds of thousands of Virginians who support their fundamental right to self-defense go to the polls,” she said. “… This year the gun control lobby is screaming louder than ever in an effort to distract voters” from scandals involving top Democrats.

Virginia is generally considered gun-friendly and is home to NRA’s headquarters. The General Assembly has repeatedly rejected numerous gun-control bills.

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s gun-control group made a splash at the tail end of the 2015 legislative elections by announcing it was

$5.35M

spending $2.2 million in two open state Senate races to help the Democratic candidates.

Republicans were shocked, but the spending did not appear to make much difference. One Bloomberg-backed candidate won in a Northern Virginia district that votes reliably Democratic, while the other Democratic nominee lost a pivotal swing seat in the Richmond area.

Gov. Ralph Northam, D, summoned the Republican-led legislature to the Capitol to address gun violence after a May 31 attack killed a dozen people in Virginia Beach. He put forward eight gun-control measures and called for “votes and laws, not thoughts and prayers.”

Republica ns said it was

Northam, still dealing with the fallout of a blackface scandal that almost drove him from office, who had acted improperly.

They assigned the state’s bipartisan crime commission to study policy proposals that might have prevented the shooting.

Richard Keene, a 51-year-old gun owner from Chesterfield, said the session turned out to be “a lot of hype for nothing.”

“I don’t feel like the common, normal person, the normal American, is represented anymore,” he said.

A fter the adjou r n ment, Northam issued a statement calling the Republicans’ abrupt conclusion of the session “shameful and disappointing.”

Virginia police capture immigration detainee from Guinea who scaled detention center fence

MARYLAND The Montgomery County Council held a public hearing Tuesday on a bill to establish a Policing Advisory Commission that would examine and recommend policies governing police behavior in the county.

Several recent incidents involving police have raised tensions between local law enforcement and civilians.

Earlier Tuesday, an officer from Silver Spring was charged with second-degree assault and misconduct after a video appeared to show him using his shin to force a man’s head to the ground during an arrest.

The proposed commission would consist of 15 members: nine civilians appointed by the council, four civilians appointed by the county executive and two ex officio members, one each for the police department and the Fraternal Order of Police.

The commission would not oversee individual disciplinary cases but would be able to make general recommendations to the county council about disciplinary policy, said council member Hans Riemer, D-At Large, above.

“The hope is that this will create a more collaborative approach and that we won’t have an oppositional dynamic between the body and the police department,” Riemer, the lead sponsor of the bill, said in an interview.

The council will vote on the bill in the fall. REBECCA TAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Purple Line delayed again

Crash at Monroe Park leaves two dead

THE DISTRICT | Police and crime-scene officials inspect an area at Monroe Park on Thursday after two people were killed late Wednesday when an SUV veered off the road and struck them. The driver was also injured. Speed was a factor in the crash, according to the U.S. Park Police.

TRANSPORTATION Maryland transportation officials have granted the contractor building the Purple Line a 160day delay in the light-rail line’s opening but will not compensate it for related costs, according to a letter by a state contracting officer.

On that schedule, the 16-mile rail line between Montgomery and Prince George’s counties would begin carrying passengers Aug. 18, 2022. The opening date in the project’s contract has been March 11, 2022.

However, disagreements over when the line will begin carrying passengers — and who will pay

to offset holdups and accelerate construction — continue.

The contractor, Purple Line Transit Partners, has rejected the 160-day delay. The companies say problems obtaining approvals and an ultimately

unsuccessful lawsuit aimed at stopping the project held up work by 266 days and added nearly $200 million in costs.

In a June 28 letter, Anita Rodgers, an officer for the Maryland Transit Administration, said Purple Line Transit Partners is not due more time or compensation because it was responsible for some of the delay, including late submittals for state environmental permits and approvals from local utilities to move water and power lines.

The ongoing dispute has drawn attention because the project is being financed and built as part of a 36-year, $5.6-billion public-private partnership. The line’s construction comprises about $2 billion of the contract. K ATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

dcrider DC RIDER | KERY MURAKAMI

A neatly dressed woman got into a big white shuttle one afternoon near Fort Totten last week carrying bags full of okra and broccoli leaves.

She was carrying a distinguished air as well, and appeared unlikely to be engaged in a war. But a war she was in, she said, as she climbed into the van in front of a community garden.

“How’s the farming going?” the driver, Rafiq Butler, asked.

“You remember when I told you about someone parking in front of my plot?” she said.

Since they’d last spoken, said the woman who didn’t want to give her name, she’d gotten a “No Parking” sign put next to her plot.

“I came today and someone took my sign,” she said. She thinks another person at the garden has been parking next to her plot and snatched the sign. “We had an exchange of words. So it’s a war at the community garden,” she said.

The scene was about more than the drama unfolding amid the tranquility of a community garden. It also illustrated the beginning of a new way some people are getting around the D.C. area at a time when companies like Lyft and Uber have raised consumers’ expectations about being able to go door to door.

The woman was glad to get into one of the air conditioned shuttles the city is running in an area straddling Northeast and Northwest under a

program known as DC MicroTransit. The free-for-now shuttle program created by D.C’s Department of Hired Vehicles and local cab company Transco are unshackled from fixed bus and train routes.

The gardener lives a couple of miles away in the Woodridge neighborhood, which she called the “backroads” when it comes to transportation choices.

Buses between her home and the garden are unpredictable and require transfers, so she might have walked home with her bags if not for the shuttle, she said. Or she might have walked to the Fort Totten Metro station, taken a train to the Rhode Island Avenue station, and walked home from there.

Instead, she called a dispatcher. She also could have ordered a ride using an app provided for the program by Via. The call appeared on a screen in front of Butler. Ten minutes later, he pulled up to the garden and the woman climbed in.

As with shared rides on Lyft and Uber, the shuttles pick up and drop off others. On its way to the woman’s home, the van picked up three siblings going home from advanced summer classes. They were glad not to be waiting a half-hour in the sun for a bus.

Officials in D.C. and Montgomery County, which launched its own $2-a-ride microtransit program in June, insist the experiments aren’t meant to compete with ridesharing companies, but to fill in the gaps between where buses and trains run.

KERY MURAKAMI (EXPRESS)

A different route: New way around bus travel in D.C.

Rafiq Butler drives a shuttle for DC MicroTransit, a D.C. program that is free but will likely move to low fares soon.

“The best benefit is there’s no fixed route. People can get picked up and go.”

DAVID DO, director of D.C.’s for-hire vehicles department, on the advantages of microtransit programs over bus and trains

“The best benefit is there’s no fixed route,” said David Do, director of D.C’s for-hire vehicles department. “People can get picked up and go to their medical appointments or the grocery.”

Rather than making longer trips like Lyft and Uber, Montgomery transportation director Al Roshdieh said the county’s shuttles, like D.C.’s, run only within limited areas.

The county is running shuttles within one zone encompassing the Glenmont and Wheaton Metro stations during

the morning and afternoon commutes to see if people will use them to get to and from the Metro. They also run in the Rockville area between 9 a.m. and 3 p.m. to see if people will use them for shopping, medical appointments and other trips.

D.C. transportation director Jeff Marootian said in an interview that the department is actively considering running microtransit shuttles east of the Anacostia River, where residents complain about infrequent buses.

Thus far usage is low, but Do said the number of rides doubled from 267 when it began in May to 530 in June. He said the city will likely begin charging $1 to $3 a ride starting Oct. 1, and he thinks people will pay it.

Transportation officials also don’t see the programs competing with Metro, saying the aim is to encourage people not drive to stations. Do’s program serves the Fort Totten, Rhode Island Ave, Shaw-Howard U, NOMA-Gallaudet, Brookland,

Georgia Ave-Petworth and Takoma stations, though he hadn’t yet tracked how many people are using the shuttles to get to and from Metro.

Metro told The Washington Post in February that it is exploring microtransit, as transit agencies deal with changing expectations brought by new ride-hailing competitors. In grappling with providing latenight service, Metro began subsidizing up to $3 for Uber, Lyft and taxi rides starting July 1 for those getting off work at midnight instead of running trains later.

“While microtransit cannot match the efficiency of frequent transit in urban areas, it may offer opportunities to serve low-density or off-hour travel markets more cost-effectively than with regular bus service,” spokeswoman Sherri Ly said.

Trump drops census push IMMIGRATION President Trump on Thursday retreated from his plan to add a citizenship question to the 2020 Census, effectively conceding defeat in a battle he had revived just last week and promised to continue despite recent legal defeats.

Instead Trump said he is ordering every federal agency to give the Commerce Department records on the numbers of citizens and noncitizens, including databases from the Homeland Security Department and the Social Security Administration.

“I’m proud to be a citizen, you’re proud to be a citizen, the only people that are not proud to be citizens are the ones who are fighting us all the way about the word citizen,” Trump said in the White House Rose Garden.

The move comes after administration officials spent days exploring the possibility of including the question on the census despite a Supreme Court ruling last month that the government could not do so without a solid justification, calling the administration’s original rationale for the addition “contrived.”

In the wake of that ruling, the Commerce Department announced last week that it would drop the question, saying it needed to begin printing the survey. But an angry Trump reversed that decision the next

Reason for reversal Attorney General William Barr said the federal government is abandoning its efforts to inquire about citizenship status on the census due to logistics, not legality.

day, saying that he was not giving up on the issue.

“We are absolutely moving forward, as we must, because of the importance of the answer to this question,” he tweeted July 3.

On Thursday, however, Trump scrapped that plan and said he would instead instruct agencies to

provide Commerce with records that could be used to compile data about the number of citizens and noncitizens in the country.

“It will be, we think, far more accurate,” Trump said.

Attorney General William Barr, who attended the Rose Garden event along with Commerce

Secretary Wilbur Ross, defended the administration’s effort to add the question to the census, but said the effort had to be abandoned because a protracted legal fight would impede the administration’s ability to carry out the 2020 survey.

“We’re not going to jeopardize our ability to carry out the census. So as a practical matter, the Supreme Court’s decision closed all paths,” Barr said.

Critics of the administration contend it wanted to add the citizenship question to intimidate immigrant communities from participating in a survey that helps determine congressional districts and the disbursement of some federal funding.

Barr argued the data is needed regardless of how it is collected.

The “information will be used for countless purposes,” he said.

“For example, there is a current dispute over whether illegal aliens can be included for apportionment purposes.”

The political tensions over Trump’s effort to collect citizenship data are certain to continue.

House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, D-Md., said Thursday that the Democratic-led chamber will vote Tuesday to hold Ross and Barr in contempt of Congress for not complying with subpoenas related to the administration’s decision to include the citizenship question.

A triple threat in La. Barry threatens New Orleans with dangerous rains, storm surge and high rivers

Study: Shorter resident hours OK for patients

SETH HERALD (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)

NEW ORLEANS As New Orleanians recover from floodwaters that inundated the city on Wednesday, residents are preparing for an unprecedented triple whammy this weekend — heavy rain, an already engorged Mississippi River and a tropical storm in the Gulf of Mexico that is expected to make landfall in Louisiana on Saturday, with storm surge that could reach 4 to 6 feet.

Fourteen years after Hurricane Katrina killed more than 1,800 people and swamped this city, the deluge will be a major test of the updated drains and pumps that remove water from the streets, the earthen levees that hold back the river, and the elaborate system of barriers that prevents tidal surges from sweeping in — all part of a $14 billion investment in the city’s flood-fighting infrastructure.

On Thursday, the National Weather Service forecast that the river will crest at 19 feet, one foot lower than previously predicted, reducing concerns that river levees will be overtopped or breached. But residents, their memories of Katrina reawakened by Wednesday’s downpour, are still worried about Tropical Storm Barry.

Louisiana Gov. John Bel Edwards, who issued a state of emergency Wednesday, the system will likely produce “up to 15 inches of rain,” putting the entire state at risk.

“There are three ways Louisiana floods,” he said: storm surge, high river and rain. “We’re going to have all three.”

New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell said that the pumping system that drains the city’s streets is working as designed but that Barry could dump water faster than the pumps can

move it.

“We cannot pump our way out of the water levels ... that are expected to hit the city of New Orleans,” she warned.

However, the city did not plan to order evacuations because Barry was so close and because it was not expected to grow into a major hurricane. Farther south, the president of Plaquemines Parish, Kirk Lepine, issued orders for residents to leave.

Patrice Cheneau has heard for days that the Mississippi was high and a new storm was looming. So Cheneau walked from her house in the city’s Lower Ninth Ward to the Andry St. Wharf — on the levee that protects her neighborhood — to see how high the water was Thursday.

When Cheneau saw the river flowing about 10 feet below the top of the levee, her mouth opened in shock. “And we are

still supposed to get 48 hours of rain?” Cheneau, 47, asked.

Despite assurances from the Corps that the levee is not likely to be topped, Cheneau said she and her grandchildren will ride out the storm at her daughter’s high-rise apartment.

“I don’t want to get stuck, and be like my mother [during Katrina] having to get rescued from the attic,” said Cheneau.

The new infrastructure,

including the world’s largest pump, has given some residents reassurance.

Derek Boese, chief administrative officer of the Southeast Louisiana Flood Protection Authority, which operates and maintains the infrastructure on the east side of river, said the improvements were striking.

“You can’t compare it to what existed pre-Katrina,” he said.

Still, Emily Vuxton, policy director of the Coalition to Restore Coastal Restoration, which focuses on reinforcing green infrastructure like wetlands and marshes to protect the city from storm surges, was struck by how slowly the giant pumps work.

Wednesday’s downpour inundated areas that never flooded before, she said. “We are all still on edge about whether we should leave or not,” Vuxton said.

HEALTH When reforms shortened working hours for U.S. doctorsin-training in the mid-2000s, some worried: Was that enough time to learn the art of medicine?

Would future patients suffer?

Now a study has answers, finding no difference in hospital deaths, readmissions or costs when comparing results from doctors trained before and after caps limiting duties to 80 hours per week took effect.

“Some still long for the old days of 100-hour work weeks, but most of the world has moved on and realized there are better ways to train residents,” said Dr. Karl Bilimoria of Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine, who was not involved in the research published Thursday in the journal BMJ. Eliminating extra paperwork and some academic conferences for residents, while adding nurse practitioners to the workforce, helped make training more efficient, Bilimoria said.

Prior studies suggested the reforms didn’t harm residents’ patients. The new study is the first to find similar reassuring results for doctors once they hit the real world, said Dr. Mitesh Patel of University of Pennsylvania, who wasn’t involved with the study.

Teamwork and technology have changed hospital care so much that the impact of any one doctor on patient outcomes is muted, said lead author Dr. Anupam Jena of Harvard Medical School. CARLA K. JOHNSON (AP)

The system, which is part of the government’s efforts to provide more digital health services, will help people get quick and accurate health information and will be useful for senior citizens, blind people and others who find it hard to access the internet, British officials said. Critics, however, warn about risks to data privacy. (AP)

Trump accuses tech companies of political bias POLITICS President Trump assailed Facebook, Google and Twitter on Thursday for exhibiting “terrible bias” and silencing his supporters at a White House “social media summit” that critics chastised for giving a prominent stage to some of the internet’s most controversial, incendiary voices.

Trump delivered his winding diatribe against the tech giants — charges of political bias that all three companies long have denied — at an event at the White House featuring Republican lawmakers, GOP campaign strategists and socialmedia meme makers. Trump described those gathered as “journalists and influencers.”

“You communicate directly with our citizens without going through the fake news filter,” he said, adding: “Some of you are extraordinary. The crap you think of is unbelievable.”

At one point, the president praised James O’Keefe, the founder of Project Veritas, which has released widely criticized, highly edited videos. “Somebody said he’s controversial,” Trump said. “He’s truthful.”

Critics fretted that Trump had essentially endorsed the controversial tactics in the early days of the 2020 presidential race. “This has the appearance not of a social media summit but a political rally and call for the right,” said Democratic Sen. Mark Warner, Va. TONY ROMM (TWP)

Immigrants brace for raids Nationwide roundup of people in U.S. illegally expected this weekend

AMR ALFIKY (AP)

IMMIGRATION A nationwide immigration enforcement operation targeting people who are in the U.S. illegally is expected to begin this weekend after it was postponed last month by President Trump, according to two administration officials and immigrant activists.

The operation, which has sparked outrage and concern among immigrant-rights advocates, would target people with final deportation orders, including families whose immigration cases were fast-tracked by judges in 10 major cities, including Chicago, Los Angeles, New York and Miami.

“Our communities have been in constant fear,” Estela Vara, a Chicago-area organizer said Thursday at a rally outside the city’s Immigration and Custom Enforcement offices where some activists chanted: “Immigration Not Deportation!”

The sweep remains in flux and could begin later, according to the administration officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity.

Still, the American Civil Liberties Union preemptively filed a lawsuit Thursday in an attempt to protect asylum-seekers.

Meanwhile, activists ramped up efforts to prepare by bolstering know-your-rights pocket guides, circulating information about hotlines and planning public

demonstrations. Vigils outside of detention centers were set for Friday, to be followed by protests Saturday in Miami and Chicago.

The operation is similar to ones conducted regularly since 2003 that often produce hundreds of arrests. It is slightly unusual to target families, as opposed to immigrants with criminal histories, but it’s not unprecedented.

The Obama and Trump administrations have targeted families in previous operations. But this latest effort is notable because of the politics swirling around it.

Trump announced on Twitter last month that the sweep would mark the beginning of a push to deport millions of people who are in the country illegally, a

near-impossibility given the limited resources of ICE, which makes the arrests and carries out deportation orders.

Then he abruptly canceled the operation after a phone call with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, DCalif., while lawmakers worked to pass a $4.6 billion border aid package. Plus, details had leaked, and authorities worried about the safety of ICE officers.

The agency said in a statement that it would not discuss specifics about enforcement operations. But Ken Cuccinelli, the new head of Citizenship and Immigration Services, told CNN on Wednesday that the raids were “absolutely going to happen.”

The administration has been

straining to manage a border crisis, and some officials believe flashy shows of force in deporting families would deter other migrants from coming. But others have criticized any move that draws resources away from the border at a time when the Border Patrol is detaining four times the number of people it can hold. Also, a watchdog report found filthy, potentially dangerous conditions at some stations.

Rep. Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash. a former immigrant advocate, accused the administration of showing a “willingness to be cruel at every turn. It sickens me that this is this is the United States. …

We are so much better than this.”

LOS ANGELES A Southern California couple is suing a fertility clinic, claiming their embryo was mistakenly implanted in a New York woman, who gave birth to their son as well as a second boy belonging to another couple.

The lawsuit by Anni and Ashot Manukyan describes an alleged in vitro fertilization mix-up by CHA Fertility Center in L.A. that involves three separate couples.

“What Anni and Ashot discovered, much to their horror, was that their son had been stolen from them when he was still an embryo and implanted into a stranger that later became his birth mother,” claims the suit filed Wednesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

The birth mother in New York believed she was carrying twins made from her and her husband’s genetic material, the suit says.

Genetic testing confirmed the two infants were not related to the couple and were not related to each other. The Queens woman and her husband filed a separate medical malpractice and negligence lawsuit.

The Manukyans endured a court fight before being granted custody of their son, according to the court filing.

“CHA put three families through a living hell, and our lives will never be the same,” Ashot Manukyan said in a statement. “We fought to get our boy back and now we will fight to make sure this never happens again.” (AP)

RETIRED FROM NFL

Back in contention

Improved play and good luck kept playoff hopes alive — now the test begins NATIONALS Something odd happened over the past six weeks, as the Nationals went from wasting their season to wrangling it: Almost everything went right.

The Nationals (47-42) went 28-11 from May 24 to July 7, baseball’s best record during that stretch. But because they began their march in fourth place in the National League East, and way down the wild-card standings, they also needed a lot of help.

That’s when the Mets flatlined, and the Phillies struggled, too.

Even the Brewers lost enough for Washington to make up significant ground before the All-Star break. The Nationals did their part against weak opponents, and they also got lucky, and that

combination breathed belief into a club that once looked ready to spend this month selling players.

The Nationals are atop the wild-card standings, six games behind the Braves in the National League East, and only have a fighting chance because they won 70% of their past 40 games.

That will be hard to sustain, especially considering the Nationals recently went 10-2 against the Marlins, Tigers and Royals, who are all bee-lining toward 100 losses. The teams that stumbled through June, namely the Phillies and Brewers, are looking to buy before the July 31 trade deadline and should pick up their pace.

But because the Nationals are back in contention — way more than they could say six weeks ago

— their hardest task is ahead. A new life will only matter if they do something with it.

“We have a lot of games left,” second baseman Brian Dozier said after a win over the Royals before the break. “It’s a long season.”

The Nationals begin the second half with three games in Philadelphia, then close the month with two in Baltimore, four in Atlanta, three home dates with the Rockies, three with the Dodgers, who have the majors’ best record, and three more with the Braves. It’s a stretch that could break their season as quickly as it was restored. The Phillies series provides an immediate chance to separate themselves in second place. Seven matchups with the Braves will determine if

Washington can really compete for the division. A set with the Dodgers will be a good measuring stick. If the Nationals can take 43 of their final 73 games, a .589 winning percentage, they will finish with 90 wins and be right in the playoff mix.

Their rotation gives them the confidence to do that. Stephen Strasburg, Patrick Corbin and Max Scherzer are lined up to face the Phillies.

While it once seemed as if August would be a tired trot toward a disappointing finish, the Nationals have earned themselves a chance. They can stare down the second half with a purpose.

Because now their most important test begins. JESSE DOUGHERTY

Haynesworth in ‘dire need’ of a kidney Former Redskins defensive tackle Albert Haynesworth said on Instagram Wednesday that he now has kidney failure after years of battling kidney disease.

The 38-year-old shared a photo of himself in a hospital bed and pleaded for a donor, describing himself as in “dire need” of a new kidney. “It’s hard to believe from being a professional athlete to only 8 season in retirement that my body has taken another major blow,” he said, noting that he suffered brain aneurysms in 2014. Haynesworth played seven seasons with the Titans before signing a mammoth $100 million, sevenyear contract with the Redskins in 2009. He played just two years in Washington. (TWP)

Olsen: ‘With Durkin, it’s all about growth’

Rafael Nadal, left, beat rival Roger Federer in straight sets last month in the French Open semifinals on a clay court.

Djokovic, who is seeded No. 1 and plays No. 23 Roberto Bautista Agut of Spain in Friday’s other semifinal (8 a.m., ESPN), and this trio has won 53 of the past 64 major championships. That includes 14 of the last 16 at Wimbledon.

Djokovic is seeking his fifth trophy, and second straight, at the All England Club, while Bautista Agut is making his Grand Slam semifinal debut.

Djokovic leads 7-3 head-tohead, but Bautista Agut won their two matchups this season, both on hard courts.

“Going to try to use my experience in being in these kind of matches, get myself tactically prepared,” Djokovic said. “Hopefully I can execute everything I intend to do.”

WIMBLEDON After going more than 1½ years without playing each other anywhere, Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal will be meeting at a second consecutive Grand Slam tournament Friday (10:30 a.m., ESPN) in Wimbledon’s semifinals.

Last month, Nadal got his shot at Federer on red clay, winning their wind-whipped French Open semifinal in straight sets on the way to a 12th title there.

“We had some brutal conditions to play [in] there. But it was a joy to play against Rafa there, on his court,” Federer said. “And, of course, I’d love to play against him here at Wimbledon.”

Now Federer gets his shot at Nadal on grass and hopes to prolong his pursuit of a ninth championship at the All England Club.

This is their 40th showdown on tour; Nadal leads 25-14. It’s their 14th match at a major; Nadal leads 10-3. And it’s the fourth time they’ll play at Centre Court; Federer leads 2-1.

But Nadal did win the last one, edging Federer 9-7 in the fifth set of the 2008 final — one of the greatest matches ever — as daylight dwindled to nothing.

Eleven years later, Federer and Nadal are still at the top of the game. Federer ranks first among men with 20 career Grand Slam titles. Nadal is next with 18.

Add in the third-place count of 15 trophies belonging to Novak

Serena to face Halep Serena Williams will play in the Wimbledon final for the 11th time and will be looking for her eighth title at the All England Club on Saturday morning. The 23-time Grand Slam singles champion beat Barbora Strycova 6-1, 6-2, in the semifinals Thursday. The 11th-seeded American, who lost in last year’s final, will face Simona Halep in Saturday’s championship match. They’ve played each other 10 times before and Williams won nine, including a three-setter at the Australian Open in January. (AP)

32, they aren’t showing signs of letting up.

Nadal reached the final during five consecutive Wimbledon appearances from 2006-11, winning twice, but hasn’t been that far since, including a series of exits against opponents ranked 100th or worse. Last year, he was beaten in five sets by Djokovic in the semifinals.

“Haven’t played each other in a long, long time on this surface,” Federer said. “He’s serving way different. I remember back in the day, how he used to serve.

And now, how much bigger he’s serving, how much faster he finishes points. It’s going to be tough. Rafa really can hurt anybody on any surface. I mean, he’s that good. He’s not just a clay-court specialist, we know.”

Jim Bouton, ‘Ball Four’ writer, dies

Jim Bouton, the former Yankees pitcher who wrote the shocking tell-all book “Ball Four,” died Wednesday at his Great Barrington, Mass., home. He was 80.

Bouton had a brain disease linked to dementia and was in hospice care. Published in 1970, “Ball Four” detailed Mickey Mantle’s carousing and the use of stimulants in the majors. Players and executives across baseball were upset about the revelations, and he wasn’t invited to the Yankees’ Old-Timers’ Day until 1998. (AP) Mystics’ Elena Delle Donne and Aces’ A’ja Wilson announced as captains in WNBA All-Star Game

D.C. UNITED When Wayne Rooney launched the 70-yard strike that landed in highlight reels around the world two weeks ago, at least one Audi Field bystander wasn’t fazed: his D.C. United teammate Chris Durkin.

The 19-year-old midfielder, who started alongside Rooney in that 1-0 win over Orlando City, says he regularly engages in practice field competitions with the Englishman to see who can find the net from past midfield.

“Almost nine times out of 10 he hits it,” Durkin, above, said.

“So I wasn’t that surprised, to be honest.”

Training alongside a global star like Rooney is an experience any young player would relish.

For Durkin, however, the most valuable commodity in his development this season has been first-team minutes.

After signing with United as a homegrown player in 2016, the Glen Allen, Va., product didn’t play a match in his first two seasons before breaking out with 23 appearances (16 starts) last year. Although Russell Canouse’s return from injury in the second half of last season pushed Durkin down the depth chart, he still has made 11 appearances (six starts) in 2019.

“With Durkin, it’s all about growth,” United coach Ben Olsen said, “and pushing him and getting these games under his belt, so he can become the player he’s going to be.”

Running the well dry?

Audiences and critics are showing frequent disdain for remakes of classic movies “Dumbo”

1941

2019

“Aladdin”

1992

2019

“The Lion King”

1994

2019

for more than 100 remakes. They took those scores, then compared them to the same measure for the original. The researchers did the same for Metacritic scores, which indicate how reviewers felt about a movie.

One of the biggest dips between the remake and the original was for “Dumbo,” Disney’s 2019 remake of the animated

M83 album “DSVII” due out Sept. 20

DISNEY

FILM Studio executives have grown more than a little remake-happy in recent years. In 2019 alone, remakes of films including “Shaft,” “Dumbo,” “The Upside” and “Aladdin” have all arrived in theaters, with a new take on “The Lion King” set to arrive next week.

The executives’ logic has been simple: In a world of content overload, consumers turn out for the familiarity of a remake. While critics don’t tend to be terribly fond of these new takes, consumers supposedly like them. And studios are in the business of giving consumers what they want.

One-third of Disney’s 2019 releases are devoted to remakes of animated features. And many more remakes are in the development pipeline, from “Clue” (Disney’s Fox unit) to “Clueless” (Paramount). But a new study suggests audiences don’t really like remakes either. Or, at least, an overwhelming number of people prefer the original.

The study quantifies an aspect of Hollywood — remake sentiment — that is often talked about only in nebulous terms.

“We may be hitting a peak with remakes. And I suspect we may [soon] hit a decline,” says Bruce Nash, a box-office expert with the site The Numbers.

Spearheaded by researcher James Barnes of the company Verve Search and backed by online betting site Casumo, the survey found that audiences compared the remake unfavorably to the original more than 90 percent of the time. That’s more often than even critics, who are famously remake-averse.

To conduct the study, researchers looked at the percentage of positive assessments from audience members on the site IMDb

classic. The new version received just a 51 Metacritic score, compared to 96 for the 1941 original.

Average audiences liked it less, too: 66 percent positive from IMDb for the remake versus 73 percent for the original. The recent Will Smith version of “Aladdin,” a Disney live-action remake of the 1992 animated feature, similarly lost ground

Variety: Elizabeth Banks developing “Flintstones” animated reboot

when compared to the original.

Overall, horror remakes were some of the biggest losers — the remakes of “The House on Sorority Row” and “Cabin Fever” each dropped more than 40 points with critics.

Not all films lost shine in their new versions. The 2018 remake of “A Star Is Born” ticked up from 76 to 79 among audiences and 77 to 88 with critics compared to the first version, in 1937. But it was far and away the exception.

The data may be the result of a kind of confirmation bias. The nature of nostalgia is such that viewers can’t help thinking an original film was better, but that doesn’t mean they won’t pay to see the new one.

Indeed, “Dumbo” was a modest performer, taking in $115 million domestically and an additional $237 million worldwide, a relatively small number for an enterprise that large.

But “Aladdin” has been a bona fide smash — the highest-grossing non-Marvel movie in the U.S. this year and a $900 million-plus grosser worldwide. The 2017 remake of “Beauty and the Beast,” which dropped 30 points among critics and eight points with audiences, still took in $1.26 billion around the world.

Nash notes that such remakes worked a little extra magic because they appealed to parents who care less about originality than introducing their kids to versions of childhood favorites.

But these films can eventually run their course too.

“I think Disney needs to be careful coming off ‘Dumbo’ and ‘Aladdin’ and ‘Lion King’ and now the trailer for ‘Mulan,’ ” he says. “It can seem like overkill to audiences.”

DOCUMENTARIES

How TV will observe the moon landing The 1969 moon landing was an improbable television event, as the images from more than 200,000 miles away mesmerized viewers — a feat TV hopes to replicate as we approach the feat’s 50th anniversary July 20. LYNN ELBER (AP) ‘8 Days: To the Moon and Back’ 9 p.m. Wednesday on PBS

Co-produced by PBS and BBC Studios, the new film tracks the mission from countdown to splashdown with a combination of recently declassified audio, interviews with the Apollo 11 crew, mission re-enactments, TV news footage and photographs.

‘Apollo 11’ 9 p.m. July 20 on CNN

The documentary film from director Todd Douglas Miller recounts the mission using newly discovered 70mm footage, extensive audio recordings and other digitized and restored material from the National Archives and NASA.

‘Confessions From Space: Apollo’ 10 p.m. July 20 on Discovery

This program gathers six astronauts who took part in Apollo program missions to jointly share their memories and insights. Among them are Apollo 11’s Michael Collins and Buzz Aldrin.

The week’s best movie previews

‘Jumanji: The Next Level’

‘Knives Out’

EXPECTED RELEASE: Dec. 13

EXPECTED RELEASE: Nov. 27

SUMMARY: In 2017’s (shockingly) lucrative “Jumanji” reboot, teenagers found themselves trapped as video game avatars played by the likes of Dwayne Johnson and Kevin Hart. This time around? Danny DeVito and Danny Glover are among the souls sucked into the console. Hope you’re ready for “old people don’t get video games” gags! THOMAS FLOYD (EXPRESS)

SUMMARY: Why don’t they make housebound murder-mystery romps like “Murder by Death” and “Clue” anymore? Oh, they do. Lucky us. We’re not dealing with Agatha Christie-level wit here (“Eat s---.

Eat s---. Eat s---.” And “What is this? ‘CSI: KFC?’ ”), but it’s the latest from smart writer-director Rian Johnson, so it might not wind up DOA. ADAM SAPIRO (EXPRESS)

“The ‘appearance of impropriety’ arises only when you see a reporter, not as a reporter, but as a sexual object.”

Warren is very friendly and greets everyone with a smile. I look forward to receiving my copy of Express from him every day.

He makes my commute special and I’m glad to have him at my station.

@THISISLARRISON, Mississippi Today reporter Larrison Campbell, tweeting

on Wednesday after Republican Mississippi gubernatorial candidate and state Rep. Robert Foster rejected her request for an all-day ride along interview on the campaign trail. Foster asked Campbell to bring a male colleague because he follows what is known as the “Billy Graham rule.”

Foster tweeted on Wednesday: “The liberal left lost their minds over the fact I choose not to be alone with another woman.”

Sudoku

DIFFICULT

CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are running up against all manner of obstacles at this time, but today you should be able to get past one that poses the most serious threat.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) A difference of opinion becomes clear when you discuss certain things with a friend.

You must realize that this is in no way important.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Your perspective allows you to see things a little more clearly than usual today — and you will be in a position to help others as a result.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may have to take one or two extra steps today to get to where you had thought you would already be.

Things have been getting in the way.

THURSDAY’S SOLUTION

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You

will want to spend more time on a certain issue today — and more, certainly, than most others. Solo exploration can yield much.

THURSDAY’S SOLUTION

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) What you do on your own today reaps certain unexpected benefits, but you may wonder whether you’re better off. You miss group efforts.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You can prove that you know what you’re talking about without raising your voice or inundating others with facts. Take the simple approach.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) The

most minor adjustments today yield the greatest results. They can prove long-standing, too, if you know how to “bank” them well.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) An

assignment proves too much for you today — but a friend steps in and gives you the support and counsel you need. You can get it done.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You will have to trust the one person who is watching out for you today — and if you don’t, you will certainly have a hard time of it.

What goes on behind the scenes today gives you insight into something you’ll soon have to do, and perhaps changes your mind about it, too.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) You may be struggling to understand what is expected of you at this time.

Perhaps the answer lies in trying to satisfy only yourself.

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

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

Miley Cyrus opened up about her “complex” marriage to Liam Hemsworth in an Elle cover story published Thursday. “I think it’s very confusing to people that I’m married,” the pop star said, having tied the knot with Hemsworth in December after dating for 10 years. “My relationship is unique,” she added. “And I don’t know that I would ever publicly allow people in there because it’s so complex, and modern, and new that I don’t think we’re in a place where people would get it.” On her sexual preference, she said: “I’m in a hetero relationship, but I still am very sexually attracted to women.” (EXPRESS)
