A British TV streaming service has placed an immense statue of Jeff Goldblum as his “Jurassic Park” character Ian Malcolm in front of London’s Tower Bridge, numerous media outlets and Twitter users reported Wednesday. CNET described the sculpture, created by Now TV, as 9.8 feet high and 23 feet long. The questionably Goldblumesque artwork, featuring masculine stubble and one visible nipple, marks the movie’s 25th anniversary. At press time there was no word from Goldblum, who may or may not be in hiding. (EXPRESS)

The editor-in-chief of food blog The Takeout spotted an unusual road sign while driving near Chicago on Saturday: “No texting, no speeding, no ketchup.” “Chicago has this … bizarre antipathy towards ketchup,” wrote Kevin Pang, himself a Chicago resident.

All-Star splurge buys smiles THE DISTRICT Felix Pacheco was having trouble coming up with the final cost for all of the paraphernalia and gear he bought to remember this year’s All-Star Game.

Three hats. Four miniature baseball bats. Five bobbleheads.

Four T-shirts. A patch. The price tag went up and up and up. Let’s see. A grand? More? Wait, that didn’t include the tickets, the food, the flights, the hotel. So, maybe $2,500?

“I don’t know, man, but I have no regrets,” said the smiling 46-year-old financial adviser from Houston who attended Tuesday’s All-Star Game at Nationals Park. It was his fifth AllStar Game and the 19th Major League stadium he has visited.

“I love baseball and seeing new places,” he said. “Life’s too short to worry about spending money to do something you love.”

That urge to splurge was widespread at the ballpark this week.

Fans packed the 41,313-seat venue for the midsummer classic Tuesday and for Monday’s

Fans don’t complain about major spending at baseball’s big event

Ball cap sales were brisk Tuesday during the All-Star Game at Nats Park.

Home Run Derby.

The first All-Star Game between the American and National League teams was played in 1933 at the depths of the Depression. It was a financial success, said John Thorn, Major League Baseball’s official historian. And it has been played every year since then, except for 1945 when World War II travel restrictions caused it to be canceled. Some years, they played two.

Over the years, the nature of the game has changed, Thorn

said. It has always been popular but, following the lead of the Super Bowl, the All-Star Game became a weeklong event with activities and events drawing fans from across the country, not just the host city. That put a premium on tickets and merchandise.

“Once it became a festival with multiple attractions, it relaxed the wallets of the fans,” Thorn said. “The All-Star Game 50 years ago was more of a local celebration of a national phenomenon. Now, the local aspect has diminished and people are coming from everywhere. Hotels are packed. Traffic is impossible.

It’s a business, and the idea is to sell stuff. Sell tickets. Sell caps.

Sell jerseys.”

Roland Riso, 48, brought his son Roland, 10, from their home in Philadelphia on Monday to the Home Run Derby. They paid $400 for the tickets and $200 for a hotel. During the contest, young Roland ate a pretzel, Dippin’ Dots, a hot dog, another pretzel.

He also got a commemorative baseball, which he didn’t eat.

All told, his dad said, the trip cost about $800. He shrugged his shoulders and laughed.

“Totally worth it,” he said.

Obamas off grid in D.C. The former president and first lady are good at avoiding attention in their adopted city

expressline

FABIO DI PIETRO (ANSA VIA AP)

Alternate plans unveiled for Md. road widening

The Obamas live in D.C., but you’re more likely to spot them around the world, like on their trip to Tuscany, above.

MARVIN JOSEPH (THE WASHINGTON POST)

THE DISTRICT When Barack and Michelle Obama announced they were staying in Washington after eight years in the White House, there was a palpable buzz.

The conventional move for a post-presidency life is back home: a return to roots, a presidential library and distinguished service. No modern president had remained in the nation’s capital after leaving office; the last was an ailing Woodrow Wilson in 1921. So the idea of the vibrant, glamorous Obamas — two of the most famous people in the world — living here was a very big deal. Expectations were high.

Longtime Washingtonians hoped they would become unofficial ambassadors for the nation’s capital, embracing their adopted city. Instead, they’ve embraced their new lives as private citizens, emphasis on “private.”

In the past 18 months — aside from a few carefully curated public appearances — they are rarely spotted around town.

“I think that the Obamas probably appreciate that folks in D.C. are letting them just live their lives as private citizens,” said Stephanie Cutter, who was a senior aide in the Obama White House.

The Obamas have always been careful about controlling their message, and the code of silence extends to almost every aspect of their social lives: Speak without authorization and you could be exiled from Obamaland.

Through their spokeswoman the Obamas declined to comment for this story. And no one in their inner circle would discuss their post-presidency life in D.C. Their Instagram and Twitter feeds are

strictly on brand: favorite causes, public appearances, romantic birthday wishes.

One is hard-pressed to find signs that they live here. There’s a shot of their two dogs walking down a sidewalk that Michelle posted in March 2017, and a tweet from Barack when the Capitals won the Stanley Cup last month.

Get over it, Washington. The Obamas might own a home in the nation’s capital, but they’ll never really be Washingtonians.

The former president has an office in the West End, where he’s working on his memoirs.

And he’s golfing a lot. Michelle is a regular at Solidcore.

There are public photo-ops: The Obamas visit schools, Boys & Girls Clubs and other educational programs. Museums and theaters in D.C. hoping for the Obama touch have been treated to a few.

Despite all this, why does it feel as if they’re not really here?

From a political standpoint, keeping a low profile follows a long tradition: It’s considered poor form for a president to outshine or criticize his successor, something more likely to happen when they live in the same city.

It’s also because they travel a lot to promote their pet platforms — youth leadership, health care, women’s rights and wellness.

There’s one other factor, a more subtle and complicated aspect of their lives here: Most of their closest friends are African-American. They move in an exclusive circle that entertains privately and does not tweet, Instagram or share details about their own lives, much less the Obamas’.

“Black Washington is not observed by white Washington,” said a friend who is not authorized to speak about the Obamas but socializes with them. “They’re still the first couple of the world. But the notion that they’re not here is something black people laugh at.”

They are around — just protected, he explained. “The Washington they travel in is appropriate to their ages. People in their 50s and 60s don’t whip out their phones and tweet about it.”

So, yes, the Obamas are based in Washington — for now. Just don’t get your hopes up that they actually, you know, live here.

TRANSPORTATION An ambitious plan to widen lanes on the Capital Beltway and I-270 is entering a new phase with the release of a long list of possible construction alternatives.

Maryland transportation officials Tuesday unveiled 15 preliminary options that include the addition of congestion-priced toll lanes as well as dedicated bus lanes that would address traffic congestion on the two highways.

Republican Gov. Larry Hogan in September proposed a $9 billion project to widen the roads to add managed toll lanes in a public-private partnership.

The concept is now part of a complex federal review that explores a variety of possible improvements.

The options being studied include the addition of tolled and non-tolled lanes on both highways, bus lanes, spot improvements on the existing road to allow shoulder use and the conversion of existing HOV lanes to tolled lanes on I-270.

State officials say the goal is to find the best solution that not only provides some relief for commuters but also is financially viable.

“This is a massive undertaking,” Jeff Folden, a project deputy director with the Maryland State Highway Administration, told a group of residents and officials at a meeting Tuesday night in Greenbelt.

The review is not expected to be completed until fall 2019 at the earliest. (TWP)

New law in Baltimore bars sodas from kids’ menus

Authorities said a woman drunkenly crashed an ice cream truck into a car, injuring three people on National Ice Cream Day. Ellaine Durham, 35, was charged with driving while intoxicated and three counts of hit-and-run for the Sunday crash.

Virginia Beach Police said Durham was driving the truck in the area around 6:30 p.m. Sunday when she hit a car and injured its occupants.

The three crash victims were taken to a hospital with non-lifethreatening injuries. Police said Durham was found near the scene. It was unclear if Durham has a lawyer.

Children can still drink soda at city restaurants if an accompanying adult orders one for them.

Car used in killing of D.C. girl is found Police are still looking for the shooters after vehicle located in Md. THE DISTRICT Authorities said Wednesday they have recovered a car that was used in a shooting that left 10-year-old Makiyah Wilson dead and four adults wounded in Northeast Washington on Monday.

Two law enforcement officials, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said the black, fourdoor Infiniti was recovered in Temple Hills on Wednesday morning. D.C. police said they need the public’s help in identifying and locating the gunmen.

Police declined to say what led them to the car or whether any evidence was recovered inside.

“Progress made in the investigation but we still need your help finding the suspects responsible for Makiyah’s murder,” D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham tweeted Tuesday. “Someone out there knows who did this and should help us provide some closure to her family.”

The shooting happened about 8 p.m. Monday when someone driving the sedan pulled up to the Clay Terrace Apartments in the 300 block of 53rd Street NE, police said. A group of about 15 to 20 people was in a courtyard

Surveillance video shows four masked men getting out of the Infiniti as it rolls to a stop in a parking lot. The men begin firing, unleashing a spray of bullets police described as indiscriminate. One area resident said it was like a “war zone.”

Bullets struck Makiyah, three men and a woman. Makiyah died at a hospital. The adults were being treated for their wounds at medical centers. In the case of one victim, family members said the injuries were severe.

Police have not said what motivated the at tack or whether anyone was targeted.

Rescued boys detail ordeal Thai soccer team, coach speak publicly for first time since cave rescue

30K bees attack woman outside her car in Calif.

VINCENT THIAN (AP)

CHIANG RAI, THAILAND Trapped in the recesses of a flooded cave in northern Thailand, the 12 boys and their soccer coach were trying to dig their way out when they heard voices in the darkness. Their coach quickly told everyone to be quiet.

“We weren’t sure if it was for real,” said 14-year-old Adul Samon. “So we stopped and listened. And it turned out to be true. I was shocked.”

That stunning moment when two British divers found the missing soccer team was recounted by the boys on Wednesday at their first news conference since the rescue.

The group, looking healthy after recuperating at a hospital, entered to applause from reporters and classmates and put on a quick demonstration of their ball-handling skills on a miniature soccer field set up in the hall.

The boys — dressed in green and white uniforms with a red wild boar, their team’s nickname — then took seats up front with doctors and members of the Thai navy SEAL unit that helped rescue them.

In one poignant and emotional moment, a portrait was displayed of Saman Gunan, the former Thai navy SEAL diver who died in the rescue attempt, and the team members showed their gratitude and respect for him.

Members of the rescued Thai boys soccer team express their thanks during a news conference Wednesday.

The boys, whose ages range from 11 to 16, and their 25-yearold coach answered questions submitted by the media, including about the lessons they learned during their experience.

“I feel stronger, I have more patience, endurance, tolerance,” said Mongkol Boonpiam, 13.

Adul said, “This experience teaches me not to live life carelessly.”

Several said they want to become professional soccer players, while four said they want to emulate those who saved them.

“I want to be a navy SEAL because I want to help others,” said one.

All said they want to apologize to their parents, most of whom they had not informed in advance

about the trek to the cave after soccer practice.

Doctors said the 13 were healthy in body and mind. They said the boys gained around 6.6 pounds on average since they were rescued from the cave.

They were said to have lost an average of 9 pounds while trapped.

The news conference was the first opportunity the members of the team had to speak directly to the media, though video of them in the hospital was released previously. Officials reviewed questions in advance to make certain none might cause damaging psychological effects.

The Wild Boars teammates had entered the Tham Luang cave on June 23 for what was to be a quick, relaxing excursion

after soccer practice. But rain began falling while they were underground, and water filled the caverns, cutting off their escape.

The British divers found the group huddling on a spot of dry ground deep inside the cave on July 2, hungry but generally healthy. An international team of rescuers using diving equipment and pulleys extracted the 12 boys and their coach through the tight, flooded passageways in three separate missions last week.

Some of the boys were treated for minor infections during their hospital stay, but all 13 have been described as recovering well. TASSANEE VEJPONGSA AND KAWEEWIT KAEWJINDA (AP)

Syrian forces intensify bombardment of largest opposition holdout in Nawa, killing a dozen and hurting over 100

LAKE FOREST, CALIF. The 10:23 a.m. emergency call to the 23000 block of Buckland Lane in Lake Forest on Monday was dispatched as a reported bee sting.

When firefighters arrived, they saw a cleaning lady being attacked by a swarm of at least 30,000 bees, said Orange County fire Capt. Tony Bommarito.

The bees “were almost in clusters,” one of the firefighters, Ryan Wilson, told KNBC. “Maybe the size of a golf ball all over her … She had them on her face, around her mouth, around her ears, her neck and her hair.”

The woman — identified only by her first name, Maria — was in the Orange County home with three other cleaners and had gone to her car to grab a mop.

She was stung hundreds of times by the swarm of Africanized bees, which neighbors said had taken up residence in a nearby drainage pipe.

“It’s so horrific, I will never lose the memory of seeing her just swatting at whatever she could,” neighbor Cynthia Emmets told CBS affiliate KCAL. Bommarito said firefighters working without protective gear grabbed a carbon dioxide fire extinguisher and used it on the bees. The woman was hospitalized in critical condition, but Bommarito told City News Service that her son said the woman was doing better and was expected to survive.

EU fines Google $5B for Android practices ENCASED IN AMBER

OLIVIER MATTHYS (AP)

BRUSSELS European regulators came down hard on another U.S. tech giant Wednesday, fining Google a record $5 billion for forcing cellphone makers that use the company’s Android operating system to install Google search and browser apps.

The European Union said Google’s practices restrict competition and reduce choices for consumers.

Google can easily afford the fine, but the ruling could hurt the company’s business model, which relies on giving away its operating system in return for opportunities to sell ads and other products.

Google immediately said it will appeal, arguing that its free operating system has led to lower-priced phones and actually creates competition.

The fine, which caps a threeyear investigation, is the biggest ever imposed on a company by the EU for anti-competitive behavior.

It is likely to stoke tensions between Europe and the U.S., which regulates the tech industry

The EU gave Google 90 days to come up with remedies that could allow rival search apps and browsers onto more phones.

Failure to comply risks a further penalty of up to $15 million a day.

Among other issues, the EU also cited Google’s payments to wireless carriers and phone makers to exclusively pre-install the Google Search app. RYAN NAKASHIMA

Scientists in Myanmar have discovered the world’s oldest known baby snake fossil, according to a study published Wednesday in the journal Science Advances, Gizmodo reported.

The discovery provides insight into the reptile’s evolution.

A tale of sex, deception Feds release new details about Maria Butina, who’s accused of spying for the Kremlin

WASHINGTONPOST.COM MORNING MIX

Small island forms from Hawaii volcano

a former legislator who is now a senior official in the Central Bank of the Russian Federation.

Torshin, who became an NRA life member in 2012, was among a group of Russian oligarchs and officials targeted in April by Treasury Department sanctions for their associations with Russian President Vladimir Putin and their roles in “advancing Russia’s malign activities.”

The NRA, which has previously been connected to Butina, has not commented.

Her attorney, Robert Driscoll, said she was just a student, attending American University in the nation’s capital, who “at most” was seeking to promote a better relationship between the U.S. and Russia.

Prosecutors also alleged that she used a personal relationship with an unnamed American political operative “as simply a necessary aspect” of her covert activities on behalf of Russia.

A small new world has materialized on the shores of the Big Island of Hawaii.

The 20-by-30-foot expanse is a geological tabula rasa, untouched and unlike just about anywhere else on Earth.

The island first emerged last Thursday from lava flowing out of a new fissure that opened on Hawaii’s Kilauea volcano in May, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. The agency said underwater pressure forced the lava flowing northeast from the vent to the surface. A Hawaiian Volcano Observatory crew noticed the mass during a flight Friday.

Whether the tiny new mass will survive is an open question, scientists said. Crucial factors include how long the new eruptions last and the sort of surface that takes shape: hard lava, which is likely to last long enough to invite plant and animal colonization; or ash, which is more susceptible to erosion.

“If the newest eruption were to stop in the near future, the island would erode away,” said Michael Garcia, a volcanologist at the University of Hawaii. “But if the eruption continues, and the bay fills in, it’s likely that the coastline could move out to this island, and you could have an expanded coastline.”

If the island survives, it would be an opportunity to study how life inhabits a new area.

Maria Butina faces charges of conspiracy and acting as an unregistered foreign agent for Russia.

AP

NATIONAL SECURITY A 29-year-old gun-rights activist suspected of being a covert Russian agent was likely in contact with Kremlin operatives while living in the United States, prosecutors said Wednesday in court papers that also accused her of using sex and deception to forge influential connections.

The woman, Maria Butina, was observed by the FBI dining privately with a Russian diplomat suspected of being an intelligence operative in the weeks before the envoy’s departure from the U.S. last March, prosecutors say. She also had contact information for people who investigators believe were employees of Russia’s Federal Security Services.

The allegations, made in court filings aimed at persuading a judge to keep Butina in custody, add to the portrait of a Russian woman who the Justice Department says worked covertly to establish back-channel lines of communication to the Kremlin and infiltrate U.S. political organizations, including the National Rifle Association, and gather intelligence for a senior Russian official to whom she reported.

Prosecutors also alleged that she had a personal relationship with an American political operative and also offered sex to another person in exchange for a position with a special interest organization.

Butina awaits trial on charges of conspiracy and acting as an unregistered foreign agent for Russia. A judge in Washington on Wednesday ordered Butina held in jail as the case moves forward.

Citing her intelligence ties, the government is arguing that Butina poses an “extreme” risk of fleeing the U.S., where she

has been living on a student visa.

Butina was arrested over the weekend amid signs that she planned to leave the area and possibly the country. Her lease on an apartment ends later this month, her belongings were packed at the time of her arrest and she had applied for a visa that would allow her to travel to and from the U.S., prosecutors said.

Prosecutors said Butina was regarded as a covert agent by a Russian official with whom she was in touch, with text messages discovered by the FBI showing how the official likened her to Anna Chapman, a Russian woman who was arrested in 2010 and then deported in a prisoner swap.

Butina and the official messaged each other directly on Twitter, prosecutors said. One such exchange occurred a month before the U.S. presidential election when Butina said she understood that “everything has to be quiet and careful.”

Russian official reacts Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman for the Russian Foreign Ministry, said Wednesday that Maria Butina’s arrest was aimed at undermining this week’s meeting in Helsinki between President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“You get the sense that someone grabbed a watch and a calculator to determine when the decision on Maria Butina’s arrest should be adopted,” Zakharova said. (TWP)

They also spoke on Jan. 20, 2017, when Butina sent a photo of her near the U.S. Capitol on the day Donald Trump was inaugurated as president. According to court papers, the Russian official responded, “You’re a daredevil girl! What can I say!” Butina responded, “Good teachers!”

Authorities have not named the Russian official, but details in the court papers match the description of Alexander Torshin,

Sanders clarifies Trump’s ‘no’ She says the president does think Russia is still targeting U.S. elections POLITICS For the third straight day, President Trump on Wednesday cast doubt on whether he views Russia as a threat, despite warnings from his own government that Moscow continues to target the U.S. with hostile actions.

The new uproar over Trump’s outreach toward Russian President Vladimir Putin was sparked when Trump appeared to suggest that Russia is no longer targeting U.S. elections — prompting the White House to assert hours later that Trump’s words had been misconstrued.

verbatim

At the start of a Cabinet meeting at the White House, a reporter asked, “Is Russia still targeting the U.S., Mr. President?”

“Thank you very much. No,” Trump responded.

“No? You don’t believe that to be the case?”

“No,” Trump repeated.

He went on to claim that no president has been tougher on Russia than him. “I think President Putin knows that better than anybody, certainly a lot better than the media,” he told reporters.

Several hours later, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Trump was saying “no” to whether he would take further questions from reporters — not to whether he believed Russia continued

‘I let [Putin] know’ President Trump said to CBS News that he told Russian President Vladimir Putin the U.S. won’t tolerate election interference in the future. Trump said: “I let him know we can’t have this. We’re not going to have it and that’s the way it’s going to be.” Asked if he holds Putin personally responsible, Trump told CBS, “I would, because he’s in charge of the country.” (AP)

to target the U.S. with hostile actions.

“The president said, ‘Thank you very much,’ and was saying ‘no’ to answering questions,” Sanders said. “The president and his administration are working

very hard to make sure that Russia is unable to meddle as they have done in the past.”

She added: “Certainly, like I just said, we believe that the threat still exists, which is why we are taking steps to prevent it.”

Trump’s remarks again put him in the position of appearing to contradict his top advisers on the threat posed by Russia, just one day after saying he accepted the conclusion of U.S. intelligence officials on Russian interference in the 2016 elections.

Last week, Director of National Intelligence Daniel Coats said Russia and other countries are continuing to target American businesses, the government and other institutions. JOHN WAGNER AND

WASHINGTON President Trump says Air Force One is getting a patriotic makeover.

Trump says the familiar baby blue color on the presidential aircraft will give way to a redwhite-and-blue color scheme.

Updated models could be in service during a potential second term. The president made the announcement in a CBS News interview broadcast Tuesday.

Trump said he wondered, after reaching a deal with Boeing for the new aircraft, whether to stick with the baby blue color that’s recognized worldwide.

He said he decided against it.

“Air Force One is going to be incredible,” Trump said. “It’s going to be top of the line, the top in the world, and it’s going to be red, white and blue, which I think is appropriate.”

Separately, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said Wednesday that the Air Force has awarded a “firm fixed-price” contract to Boeing to design, modify, test, certify and deliver two presidential “missionready” aircraft by 2024. They’ll replace the current Boeing 747 versions, which are 31 years old.

Sanders said the contract sets the total price for the two aircraft at $3.9 billion. She said that represents a savings of more than $1.4 billion from the $5.3 billion initially proposed.

Trump tweeted in December 2016 that program costs were “out of control,” adding, “Cancel order!” DARLENE SUPERVILLE (AP)

Four-time All-Star DeMar DeRozan, right, was part of Toronto’s package for Kawhi Leonard.

TWITTER SCANDAL

Raptors land Leonard Acquiring Spurs forward shows Toronto is tired of being merely relevant in the East ANALYSIS Over the past five years, the Raptors have, for the first time, become a truly relevant NBA franchise. In their first 20 years, they won one playoff series.

They’ve now won four series in the past three seasons.

But when Toronto fired coach Dwane Casey after being swept by the Cavaliers in the Eastern Conference semifinals, president Masai Ujiri signaled that just being relevant wasn’t acceptable.

By trading for forward Kawhi Leonard early Wednesday, Ujiri reiterated that message — loudly.

The deal — Leonard and wing Danny Green to Toronto for wing DeMar DeRozan, center Jakob Poeltl and a protected first-round pick — has little risk for Toronto.

While Leonard is signed only for the coming season, and his camp has made it clear he wants to join the Lakers next summer, giving up only DeRozan and Poeltl is a safe a move for a star like Leonard, an NBA Finals MVP and two-time Defensive Player of the Year.

DeRozan is a four-time AllStar, but he’s flawed. He struggles defensively and isn’t a 3-point threat. Those limitations are partly to blame for Toronto’s playoff woes.

Toronto made th is de a l without moving its two young players with the most upside, OG Anunoby and Pascal Siakam.

That shows how little leverage the Spurs had. With the 76ers unwilling to deal Markelle Fultz

What if Kawhi sits out?

According to a report from ESPN, forward Kawhi Leonard has “no desire to play in Toronto.” But, after being traded by the Spurs, his options are limited. According to the NBA’s labor agreement, a player who withholds his services for more than 30 days after the start of the season won’t accrue a year of service and will be forbidden from signing with another team unless his current team releases him. Healthy players who skip practice and games are also subject to fines. (TWP)

and the Lakers showing no urgency to deal ahead of their first season with LeBron James, the Raptors had the most to offer.

Last summer, when Thunder general manager Sam Presti traded for Paul George, the move was seen as a similar risk. But George proved to be a wise gamble after he chose to re-sign this summer. Ujiri is hoping for a similar outcome.

If fully healthy after missing most of last season with a quad injury, Leonard makes new coach Nick Nurse’s Raptors as deep and versatile as any team. Green isn’t a star, but he is a starting-caliber “3-and-D” wing.

If Leonard stays, Toronto would still go into 2020 with enough cap room to sign at least one other max player. Getting him gives the Raptors the lure for stars franchises need these days.

Hader to go to sensitivity training Milwaukee Brewers pitcher Josh Hader will be required to go through sensitivity training after years-old racist and homophobic tweets surfaced during the All-Star Game, MLB said Wednesday.

The commissioner’s office also will require Hader to participate in diversity and inclusion initiatives. Hader, 24, sent the tweets when he was a 17-year-old student at Old Mill High in Millersville, Md. Brewers general manager David Stearns said the team would continue to work through the issue. After pitching in the All-Star Game in Washington, Hader told reporters he did not “vividly” remember the tweets and apologized.

“There’s no excuse for what was said,” he said.

Jones, Britton, Brach all could be traded after Machado heads to L.A. MLB Buried in the AL East cellar and all but assured of their second straight losing season, the Orioles enter the second half with this unavoidable realization: It’s time to break up the band.

with the same core of players, the Orioles have bottomed out in 2018. They own the second-worst record (28-69) in the majors, have endured six losing streaks of at least a half-dozen games and have been shut out nine times.

Machado has never suited up for anyone but the Orioles.

Neither has Britton. Jones began his career with Seattle but became a five-time All-Star with Baltimore, playing in 14 playoff games with the Orioles.

While the team weighs all options, players will check out all trade rumors while in wait-andsee mode.

“Until it happens, it hasn’t happened,” Britton said.

By August, and maybe sooner, it will be time for the Orioles to take a long look at their younger players and try to make the best of a horrific season. DAVID GINSBURG (AP)

My D.C. dream day

I would go to Eastern Market and get a crabcake sandwich.

It’s delicious. I’m gonna dream that gentrification has not hit the city so hard: Before they built the Trader Joe’s, there used to be a parking lot over there where they sold handmade jewelry and purses and clothes. I think it was a different area [from the weekend market]. I would go there with my grandmother and we would get earrings or a purse or handmade goods.

I would go to a cookout at Fort Dupont Park in Southeast.

A bunch of my family and friends would be there and we’d do the Electric Slide, and I’d have barbecue sauce on my fingers. It’s gonna sound bad, but I usually don’t bring anything to the cookout. I bring my appetite and myself: Those are the gifts that I bear.

District native Asia Martin thought she knew D.C. audiences pretty well. But the comedian has found herself surprised by some crowd reactions while she’s been performing in the sketch show “Generation Gap” at the Kennedy Center this summer. “Audiences here are way more conservative than I thought,” says Martin, 24, who lives in Chicago and is a member of The Second City, which produced the show.

“Whenever we mention anything about politics, people go, ‘Ooh, no.’ … When people grunt like that, it just makes me laugh.” Martin conceived of the show, which runs through Aug. 12, as a way to poke at the differences between age brackets, using sketches about Tinder, rotary phones and Cardi B to help audiences of all ages laugh at themselves. When she’s not onstage, the Duke Ellington School of the Arts alum is spending time getting reacquainted with her hometown.

Missed yesterday’s paper?

A perfect day for me would start at my grandmother’s house in Capitol Heights, Md. There’s a to-go place around there called Keith & Sons Soul Food Cafe, and they have an amazing breakfast. It’s like waffles, bacon and yummy breakfast stuff. The amount of butter they use is insane, and that’s exactly why I like it.

I would have already gotten tickets to the National Museum of African American History and Culture, and would spend like five hours there. After I got my entire life from that museum, I would walk down to the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden. I would just sit by that fountain and try to write some poems.

After that, I would go to Duke Ellington School of the Arts and give inspiring advice to the students. I’d tell them that not all black theater is tears and trauma: There is such a thing as satire that you can use to get a message out. When I was growing up, I always wanted to perform and I thought theater was the way. It was so draining because most of the plays that are written about black people are about black pain. So I’d tell them all the things I wish I knew when I was there.

Then I’d get an Oreo cookie from Wisey’s. It’s so good: It’s an Oreo baked inside a chocolate chip cookie. When I used to get out of school, I’d walk down to Wisey’s and get a cookie.

After that, I would have a big family dinner. It would look pretty similar to my 16th birthday — it was at this [nowshuttered] restaurant on the waterfront in Southwest called Phillips Seafood, and they had an all-you-can-eat buffet of seafood. We’d eat as much crab, shrimp and ice cream as we could.

If you live in D.C. and haven’t checked out a local comedy show, well, that’s like going to the Sistine Chapel and not looking up. The city’s comedy scene is spectacular, and no one knows why. Maybe comedy is the diamond that forms when youthful idealism is exposed to soul-crushing political reality. Whatever the reason, you can catch great comedy here any night of the week, including these offbeat shows that go beyond the usual “person with a microphone” format. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

Q&A | MELISSA VILLASEÑOR

Everything’s connecting right now Growing up, Melissa Villaseñor was, in her words, "the shy kid.”

Finding her own voice at an all-girls Catholic high school in Southern California proved tricky, so she tried borrowing some others. At a talent show during her sophomore year, Villaseñor showcased a sextet of singing impressions: Alanis Morissette, Avril Lavigne, Christina Aguilera, Britney Spears, Shakira and, in the wake of “Moulin Rouge,” Ewan McGregor. “All of the girls just found me so funny,” Villaseñor says with a touch of faux bravado. “It felt very exciting to find something that made me feel powerful and unique.” After working the L.A. open-mic circuit in her early 20s, Villaseñor broke through with a deep run on “America’s Got Talent” in 2011. Five years later, she landed a job on “Saturday Night Live” — becoming the first Latina cast member in the show’s four-decade history. While the 30-year-old is making a name for herself as a chameleonlike master of voices and personas, she’s also embracing her stand-up roots on the road — including Thursday’s visit to the DC Improv and a Friday set during the Kennedy Center’s District of Comedy festival. THOMAS FLOYD (EXPRESS) DC Improv, 1140 Connecticut Ave. NW; Thu., 7:30 p.m., sold out.

Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; Fri., 8 p.m., $19-$49.

What appeals to you about stand-up in contrast to sketch comedy?

I can open up my heart and connect with people in the crowd.

It’s that connection, the human connection — that’s the best. And I feel that when I do sketches too, but I think when I can open up my story onstage for a while, it’s really special. Sometimes when I don’t go onstage for, let’s say, a week, I begin to get sad because I need that connection.

How would you describe your style onstage?

Dorky comedy, clean comedy, family-oriented, nerdy, a lot of references to celebrities and music. I’d say it’s a colorful set because I talk about my life, and I think it’s a very lighthearted, fun set. Some of my bits are dark, but they’re all silly. And it’s not

an only-impressions set. Some people come to my shows and they’re like, “I thought you were only going to do impressions?”

And I’m like, “No, buddy.”

How much did becoming “SNL’s” first Latina cast member resonate with you?

It never crossed my mind. Once everyone was saying, “Oh, the first Latina,” I thought, “That’s really awesome.” I felt very proud, but I don’t pressure

“Sometimes when I don’t go onstage for, let’s say, a week, I begin to get sad because I need that connection.”

myself. I have some stand-up bits that are about my family and my abuelita, but most of my stand-up isn’t Latino-based.

Do you address the political climate in your set?

Never. It’s not funny to me, and it doesn’t make me laugh. It makes me confused and it gives me headaches.

It must be tempting to relax during your summer off from “SNL,” but you’re still hitting the road to hone your stand-up.

Well, I’m in a flow right now where I’m very creative and I feel very free being me, and it’s nice to get to that place. If I’m dating someone and it clouds my brain, or if there’s something going on that’s clouding me, then I can’t feel that excitement onstage. Right now, I’m feeling very good, so I just want to do standup while I can. I’m on the road, and I want to get a special out there. I feel I’m now reminded again that I have gifts to share, to bring light and joy to people, and I want to keep doing that.

This exhibit proves humor is an art The National Gallery of Art isn’t exactly a barrel of laughs. But there is enough sharp satire and cutting caricature throughout art history — and among the 120,000 works in the museum’s collection — to assemble “Sense of Humor,” a new exhibit that opened Sunday and showcases the sly humor in nearly 100 prints and drawings spanning Leonardo to R. Crumb. ROGER CATLIN (FOR EXPRESS) National Gallery of Art, West Building, Sixth Street and Constitution Avenue NW; through Jan. 6, free.

‘Strolling Actresses Dressing in a Barn’

By William Hogarth (1738)

NATIONAL GALLERY OF ART PHOTOS

This etching by Hogarth, a renowned painter and social satirist of his day, was made in reaction to a 1737 English law that restricted the production of plays and tightened up censorship. His shambling tableau shows a barnyard troupe preparing to put on the airs of Roman gods and goddesses, including Diana, front and center, hitching up her britches in an un-goddesslike way. “The immediate reference is that change of law, but it’s also mocking all of serious theater,” Bober says.

‘Wierd-Sisters; Ministers of Darkness; Minions of the Moon’ Capricho No. 39: ‘Asta Su Abuelo (And So Was His Grandfather)’

By James Gillray (1791)

By Francisco de Goya (published 1799)

The popular British caricaturist and printmaker Gillray was spoofing the political intrigue of the day, with William Pitt the Younger and two other ministers awaiting the results of the waning senses of “Mad King” George III, who is depicted on the moon. But he was also parodying the style of Henry Fuseli’s famous painting of the “Macbeth” witches (albeit with a faulty spelling of ‘Weird’). “He’s the most fierce, the most biting of all the English satirists,” Bober says of Gillray. “[Eighteenth-century] political satirists were the late-night comics of their time.”

The 80 satirical prints collected in Goya’s 1799 volume “Los Caprichos” (“The Caprices”) were like many of his paintings: subtle digs at the aristocracy that employed him. This image is “an indictment of people who take too much pride in their own heritage,” says Jonathan Bober, the museum’s Andrew W. Mellon senior curator of prints and drawings. “He’s an ass, he’s looking at a book of his family tree that is all asses [and] there’s an ass on the coat of arms. But he’s still really proud of it.”

‘The Critic Laughs’

By Richard Hamilton (1968)

‘Zap No. 1’

Hamilton, the British pop artist and collagist who designed the poster inside The Beatles’ White Album, attached a set of plastic dentures to a Braun power toothbrush and immortalized his creation with this lithograph (he even filmed a parody TV ad for his gadget). “It’s meant to be bitingly funny,” says Judith Brodie, head of the National Gallery of Art’s American and modern prints and drawings. The work seems to be alluding to sculptor Jasper Johns’ 1959 piece “The Critic Smiles,” which depicted human teeth on a toothbrush.

By Robert Crumb (1968)

The cover of the first published issue of Crumb’s famed underground comic “Zap” borrowed cartoon stylings from the late 1920s and ’30s, but tossed in psychedelia, non sequiturs and commentary on the crumbling urban world befitting the late-’60s Haight-Ashbury scene from which it sprang. Famed art critic Robert Hughes once referred to Crumb as his era’s Hogarth, though Crumb’s inclusion in this exhibit probably would have made the gallery’s founders’ eyes roll, Brodie says. This issue, which Crumb completed himself, is one of four on display.

Alan Cumming: Legal Immigrant Alan Cumming is many things to many people—renaissance man, style icon, social activist, bon viveur—but to himself he is a story-teller and provocateur for hire. Legal Immigrant is a cabaret of songs and stories about his life and loves in his adopted homeland. The Gay Men's Chorus of Washington, DC joins him for the performance.

‘The Jim and Tammy Show’

By Roger Brown (1987)

What looks like a straight celebration of evangelical TV superstars Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker by late Chicago artist Brown will be ironic to anyone who remembers Jim Bakker’s sex and embezzlement scandals of the mid-to-late 1980s, when the disgraced couple became “the laughingstock of the country,” Brodie says. Like Warhol’s rendition of President Nixon, it is a portrait of personalities who don’t require the further exaggeration of caricature.

Will it be strange performing in a place where people will be all dressed up?

I don’t know how dressy my audience is going to get; we’ll see. I’m more worried about the actual bigness of the space and me in it. Can I physically, vocally fill the space? I’m doing a whole new hour of stuff and have been working it in smaller rooms, and we’ll see what happens.

Bio” and “Parks and Recreation.” He’s turned in acclaimed performances in films such as “Big Fan” and “Young Adult.” He’s done voice-over work, most notably as Remy the cooking rat in Pixar’s “Ratatouille.” He’s written books, including the memoir “Silver Screen Fiend: Learning About Life From an Addiction to Film.” And, of course, he’s onstage with comedy specials like 2016’s “Patton Oswalt: Talking for Clapping,” for which he won an Emmy for outstanding writing for a variety special.

The comedian, who grew up in Sterling, Va., has come to D.C. plenty of times, including last month for a surprise dropin set at The Big Hunt. Now he’s back, three days after the 30th anniversary of his stand-up debut. Back then, he performed at the long-gone Garvin’s; now, as part of the District of Comedy the Kennedy Center’s Concert Hall.

So you’ll just wing it?

That’s what I always do. You just sort of read the room and pay attention to what’s going on — and that’s what you do in any room, big or small. Any room has its own energy; you just have to engage the audience like you’re talking to one person. If you try to go in with expectations, it’s always going to mess with your performance and make it not as good. You go up and be present in the moment and see

Do you ever miss the old days of 30 years ago?

Obviously, there were aspects of it that were way more fun when you’re just starting out, but there’s also not as much security.

You don’t have breathing room to try different stuff because you’re [just] trying to get stage time. I don’t get too nostalgic for the past; I’m more anxious for the future, happy about the future.

I imagine one change is this is probably the first place you’ve performed where “Hamilton” is playing two doors down.

Is it really? Oh, my lord. Maybe I’ll hop over there and do a cameo. I’ll bust out a rap.

As your personal life has become more known, how has that affected your work?

Everything changes your work.

Life changes your work because your situation keeps changing.

It’s not that it’s one specific thing changes what you do or don’t do — it’s just your changing situation will affect your work.

There’s no way that it can’t.

What work are you most proud of?

I don’t think that’s up to me.

There are certain things that I am quietly satisfied with, but I don’t get to decide what’s going to survive the inferno and what won’t. You put it out there and the world decides.

For the third year in a row, the Kennedy Center is staging the District of Comedy festival, which celebrates all things humorous, including stand-up, sketch, improv, music and podcasts. Here are some highlights of the fest, which runs Thursday through Saturday. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; Thu.-Sat., various times and prices.

James Adomian: Bernie Sanders Town Hall Atrium, Thu., 6 p.m., free (tickets distributed in Atrium lobby at 5).

Stand-up and master impressionist James Adomian took his pitchperfect version of Bernie Sanders across the country in 2016, debating Anthony Atamanuik’s Donald Trump in the lead-up to the presidential election. Adomian is still mining laughs from his exaggerated, exasperated Sanders and will lead a town hall to kick off the festival.

RIOT!: A Celebration of Women in Comedy Concert Hall, Fri., 8 p.m., $19-$49.

The all-female lineup for this showcase might be the best roster of comics at the festival: Bridget Everett (“Inside Amy Schumer”) will bring her raunchy, cabaretstyle act to the show, which also features stand-up from Phoebe Robinson (“2 Dope Queens”), Melissa Villaseñor (“Saturday Night Live”), Sasheer Zamata (ex-“SNL”) and Amanda Seales (“Insecure”).

Baby Wants Candy Family Theater, Fri. & Sat., 7 & 9:30 p.m., $19-$25.

Chicago-based improv team Baby Wants Candy will try to give

“Hamilton” a run for its money when the troupe stages four improvised musicals based off of audience suggestions, complete with a live band.

Hari Kondabolu Terrace Theater, Sat., 7 p.m., sold out.

Brooklyn-based stand-up Hari Kondabolu’s comedy has always been political. Last year, he took on the longest-running scripted series in TV history with “The Problem With Apu,” a documentary he scripted and stars in that explores how Hank Azaria’s portrayal of Apu on “The Simpsons” has helped reinforce racial stereotypes about South Asians in America. Severna Park, Md., native Brandie Posey opens the show.

‘Employee of the Month’ with Catie Lazarus Atrium, Sat., 8:30 p.m., $25.

The Bentzen Ball comedy festival will once again host a series of podcasts during District of Comedy, including D.C. native Catie Lazarus’ “Employee of the Month.” For the regular live show/ podcast, Lazarus interviews famous people. In D.C., she’ll chat with former “Hamilton” star Chris Jackson, former “SNL” star Sasheer Zamata and Vox’s Ezra Klein.

There’s a new ‘Dave’ in town Arena Stage’s musical adaptation of the 1993 film is set in a White House that’s not quite our own

“[‘Dave’] embodies an innocence of spirit … that is a reminder to everyone of the best person they can be.”

DREW GEHLING, who plays the

president and his earnest look-alike, on the musical’s “timeless story”

had to function independent of the current political climate.

“We’ve worked hard not to make this show specifically topical,” director Tina Landau says. “We don’t reference any particular thing that’s going on, or any person. … It’s a fairy tale and a fable of kinds, and we’ve tried to keep it in that very distinct world where it references and echoes and reverberates with our own but is not a depiction of it.”

Just as writer Gary Ross put a then-modern spin on “The Prince and the Pauper” with the film, which starred Kevin Kline, this production is carving its own identity.

Fresh off directing the lively “SpongeBob SquarePants” musical, Landau drew inspiration from “The West Wing’s” famed walk-and-talk scenes to pin down a kinetic energy for the show. With a book co-written by the late Thomas Meehan, who won Tonys for his work on “Annie,” “The Producers” and “Hairspray,” the production also ramped up the comedy. The musical numbers came courtesy of “Mean Girls” lyricist Benjamin and Tom Kitt, the Pulitzer Prizewinning composer of “Next to Normal.”

“We get to tell a very, very timeless story,” says actor Drew Gehling, who plays both President Bill Mitchell and his earnest everyman impersonator, Dave Kovic. “And we get to do it with a wonderfully funny book and a hugely inventive score, and choreography and movement that are surprising.”

It’s no coincidence that the “Dave” team chose to put on this production at Arena Stage, a stone’s throw from the political machinations the show portrays.

Drew Gehling does double duty in “Dave,” playing the POTUS and his doppelganger.

MARVIN JOSEPH PHOTOS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

STAGE There’s no denying that President Trump casts a shadow over all things political nowadays.

For the new musical “Dave,” an adaptation of the 1993 film about a presidential doppelganger who steps in for the real commander in chief, there was a time when Trump was more than a specter — he was a character.

His appearance in the show would have riffed on Oliver Stone’s meta cameo in the film, when the “JFK” director appears on “Larry King Live” to insist that the man in the Oval Office isn’t actually the president. King doesn’t buy it, and the audience enjoys a knowing chuckle.

“We actually had Trump be the guy who figured it out and said, ‘I want to see his birth certificate,’ ” recalls Nell Benjamin, the lyricist and co-writer of the “Dave” musical. “That, mercifully, is gone.”

Such is the challenge of staging a White House-centric production in 2018. With American politics seen through a rapidly shifting gaze, the creative team’s vision came into focus during the show’s four-year road to the stage: This take on “Dave,” which opened Wednesday and runs through Aug. 19 at Arena Stage,

Tina Landau sees “Dave” as a fairy tale and not a depiction of today’s D.C.

Alluding to a potential Broadway run, Benjamin says: “If we can speak to people to whom government is in their backyard … we feel like we’ll have the background to then take it to a broader audience.”

Benjamin emphasizes that “Dave” has no interest in a partisan slant. It’s a sentiment echoed

by Gehling, who says that “regardless of political affiliation or politics in general, this show embodies an innocence of spirit and an open-mindedness that is a reminder to everyone of the best person they can be.” “[The show] doesn’t comment intellectually or try to analyze or preach about what is going on in our world,” Landau says. “But it is relatable, is recognizable and ultimately tells a story that wakes us up again to stories of hope and belief in our own efficacy as citizens. What I hope for, above all, is a piece that touches the heart and leads to action.”

“What’s Opera, Doc?” is one of the highlights of AFI Silver’s Looney Tunes showcase this weekend.

Enjoy a unique selection of the best Chilean wines by the bottle or glass from select wineries at participating locations across the Metropolitan Washington region!

Looney Tunes The days of watching Bugs Bunny in your pj’s on weekend mornings are no longer over. The AFI Silver is letting loose six programs of classic Looney Tunes cartoons over the next six weeks. Every Saturday and Sunday, you can sport your best nightclothes to the theater — and get some milk and a cereal bar from the concession stand. This weekend’s program is Bugs-focused and features “What’s Opera, Doc?,” which is the reason many people have a small part of their brain singing, “kill the wabbit, kill the wabbit” whenever they hear “Ride of the Valkyries.” Best of all, your mom won’t yell at you to turn off the TV and go outside.

‘The Sandlot’

‘Zoolander’

Now 25 years old, this baseballcentered … Wait. “The Sandlot” is 25 years old? That can’t be right.

If that was true, that would make some of us (gulp) middle-aged.

Well, now Those of a Certain Age can relive their long-ago youth as nerd Scotty Smalls and friends engage in fun times (and what’s now pretty clearly an icky kissing scene) over the course of a summer. The screenings include a sneak peek at a documentary about the making of the film. Various locations; Sun., 1

Go Blue Steel with this 2001 sendup of everything wrong (and right) with supermodels and the world of fashion. Derek Zoolander (Ben Stiller, who also directed) is the king of the catwalk, and this obviously makes him a perfect subject for being turned into an assassin through brainwashing. It’s basically “The Manchurian Candidate,” only this has David Bowie. Which really is the only thing “The Manchurian Candidate” was missing, when you think about it. Suns Cinema, 3107

FESTIVALS

Brew at the Zoo

Lotus and Water Lily Festival

Adults take over the National Zoo every year for this beer tasting extravaganza. At Brew at the Zoo, you can try unlimited beer samples from more than 70 breweries and take part in exotic animal encounters, live music and lawn games. Local breweries Atlas Brew Works, D.C. Brau and Flying Dog will be represented, and you can buy snacks from food trucks such as CapMac and DC Empanadas.

People come from all over to see this display at Kenilworth Aquatic Gardens. Even if you don’t care about flowers, you’ll be wowed by these blooms: Sacred lotuses stand on 3-foot stems and sport blooms the size of dinner plates.

You’ll also see lily pads big enough to surf on, wild birds, frogs and turtles — assuming you get there early enough, before the sun sends them into hiding. Kenilworth ARTSCAPE BALTIMORE

National Zoo, 3001 Connecticut Ave.; Thu., 6-9 p.m., $65 (VIP: $110).

Fri. MUSIC

Janelle Monae Janelle Monae, who spent years shrouding her brilliance in a sanitized sci-fi aesthetic, finally came out this year — in both the literal and metaphorical senses. By showcasing a transparency that once seemed to elude Monae, her new album “Dirty Computer” wound up being filled with vibrant songwriting and splashy melodies as bold as the colors that replaced the black and white aesthetic of her past efforts. The Anthem, 901 Wharf St. SW; Fri., 8 p.m., sold out.

MUSIC

Nicki Bluhm Last year was full of change for Nicki Bluhm: The singer split with husband/bandmate Tim Bluhm, disbanded their band The Gramblers and moved from California to Nashville. Out of all the upheaval came the appropriately titled solo album “To Rise You Gotta Fall.” Nashville clearly influenced the 11-song set of country-ish tunes, as did her divorce, which Bluhm details in several heartbreaking songs.

The Hamilton, 600 14th St. NW; Fri., 8 p.m., $20-$29.50.

FRIDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

Centered around Mount Royal Avenue and Charles Street, Baltimore; Fri. & Sat., 11 a.m.-9 p.m., Sun., 11 a.m.-7 p.m., free.

Baltimore’s annual Artscape, the country’s largest free arts festival, includes numerous installations and interactive works created by Baltimore artists and a marketplace with almost 150 vendors. Over its three days, you’ll find a dance camp with performances by local pros; performances by the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, experimental opera groups and pop-up comedy and improv groups; and free movie screenings. The biggest draws are the evening concerts, with TLC (Friday) and Toots and the Maytals (Saturday).

MUSEUMS

The U Street NW memorial and its related museum mark the 20th anniversary of the memorial’s unveiling with two days of living history exhibits, re-enactors, storytellers and authors of books on African-American history. On Saturday, a 10 a.m. walk follows the new George Washington Williams Memorial Trail from Howard University to the memorial.

Williams, a Civil War veteran and minister, attended Howard and wrote “History of the Negro Race in America.” African American Civil War Museum, 1925 Vermont Ave. NW; Fri., 10 a.m.4 p.m.,Sat., 10 a.m.-5 p.m., free.

SAAM Arcade Smithsonian American Art Museum, Eighth and F streets NW; Sun., 11:30 a.m.-7 p.m., free.

The Smithsonian American Art Museum’s Kogod Courtyard turns into the area’s largest arcade during this annual, family-friendly festival. Get nostalgic playing vintage Donkey Kong or X-Men console games, or get a sneak peek at the next wave of games with previews from independent developers. More than 100 different games will be available for free play throughout the event.

Jason Isbell and the 400 Unit Country rocker Jason Isbell won Grammy awards for last year’s “The Nashville Sound” and album highlight “If We Were Vampires,” so you could consider this summer’s tour with his excellent backing band the 400 Unit a victory lap — one he’ll continue into the fall before a six-show run at home in Nashville. Wolf Trap, Filene Center, 1551 Trap Road, Vienna; Tue., 8 p.m., $35-$65.

Wed. MUSIC

Fantastic Negrito “Never Give Up” is the title (and chorus) of one of the songs off the new album from Xavier Dphrepaulezz, aka Fantastic Negrito. The singer, with help from the NPR Tiny Desk Contest, went from busking on the streets a few years ago to winning a Grammy last year. Sixth and I, 600 I St. NW; Wed., 8 p.m., $20-$25.

Two sides of the same coin ‘Blindspotting’ takes a multifaceted look at the impact of gentrification

Novel imagines Obama, Biden as dynamic duo

Daveed Diggs, left, and Rafael Casal are longtime friends who play, well, two longtime friends.

the neighborhood bodega). Miles, who always stood out on the allblack streets, now finds himself around people who look like him.

Moreover, they’re people who dress like him — ironically, of course — and simply assume he’s one of them. One even has the same “Oakland pride” tattoo Miles has had for years.

“I imagine Miles growing up in this neighborhood where he’s been the only white dude for a long time,” Casal says. “He’s done a lot of work to get his respect, and he is now having to fight against this idea that he’s an outsider who’s putting it all on, who isn’t from here.”

Miles and Collin have to face the fact that as their neighborhood

has changed, so must their relationship. While they once fit in and felt comfortable, the changing landscape has created unique obstacles.

Law enforcement, for example.

With all of the monied homeowners now living there, the police have stepped up their presence in an area they had largely ignored.

That means there are more eyes on Collin, who is three days away from completing his probation; if he steps outside the city line by a mile or misses his halfway house’s curfew by minutes, he could be sent back to prison. He’s also haunted by visions of hoodieclad young men every time he takes his morning run through a cemetery, worried that he could

be next in the line of black men killed by police officers. Miles, on the other hand, doesn’t tense up when he’s walking down the street and a police car crawls alongside him, even though some of his business dealings are outside the law.

While Miles’ race doesn’t give him a get-out-of-jail-free card, it does have its advantages. “He is a poor white dude, so he won’t [go free]. He just probably won’t get shot,” Casal says.

Collin and Miles are best friends from the same neighborhood. They’ve been through a lot together. They just didn’t realize a friendship can change as fast as it takes to slap a “sold” sign on the house down the street.

LIONSGATE

FILM Collin and Miles are best friends from the same neighborhood.

They’ve been through a lot together. They grew up in Oakland, Calif.; now they work together at a moving company there. The main characters of “Blindspotting,” which opens Friday, have almost everything in common — except their skin color.

Daveed Diggs, who plays Collin, and Rafael Casal, who plays Miles, are longtime friends themselves. They co-wrote the movie, which, at least in part, examines how gentrification affects not only geographical areas but personal relationships. “[Miles and Collin] understand each other on this totally profound level that only best friends understand — as long as it’s just them,” says Diggs, who is best known for playing Marquis de Lafayette and Thomas Jefferson in the original cast of the Broadway megahit “Hamilton.”

“They understood how the world sees them, how their block sees them. That block is changing, so now they have to catch up to the new perspectives on the block.”

Those new perspectives come from the hipsters who are moving in, buying up real estate while driving up prices, and bringing the trappings of the young and the wealthy with them (like the organic juice now sold at

BOOK REVIEW Is it mere coincidence or the beginning of a trend? First, Bill Clinton co-writes a potboiler about an embattled president who saves the United States from annihilation. Now, Barack Obama and Joe Biden have been reimagined as a detective duo in a thriller about the opioid epidemic called “Hope Never Dies,” by Andrew Shaffer.

The premise of the novel, which came out last week, is that a veteran Amtrak conductor has been found dead on a stretch of train track. Given that a bag of heroin was found in his pocket, police theorize that the man passed out on the tracks. But Biden, who befriended the conductor during his years in the Senate commuting between Delaware and Washington, can’t believe it. Soon, he’s carrying out a cockeyed investigation. The hook here is that Biden doesn’t go at it alone for long. Indeed, the murder simply serves as an excuse to reunite Joe and Barry in a wacky buddy story.

But some aspects of this novel strain too hard for zaniness. (For instance, Barack and Joe are forced to share a double bed in a motel while they hide out.) And the word is that “Hope Never Dies” is just the first of a series of Obama-Biden mysteries. That may be a bit too much of this bromance, even for those who think that the last administration was the stuff that dreams are made of. MAUREEN CORRIGAN (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

“I don’t know what’s weirder: the fact that high heeled Crocs exist or that the heeled Crocs in my size are sold out.� @RAHNEKAT, tweeting about Crocs’ Cyprus V Heel, shown above, which is sold out online. The unlikely popularity may be linked to a recent Balenciaga collaboration with Crocs. “Literally no one asked for high heeled crocs,� @danielladerobbs tweeted, slamming the shoe’s popularity. Crocs, best known for shoes that are comfortable, makes other styles of heeled shoes that are not sold out.

“Everything about this story is wonderful: the work ethic of Walter Carr, the actions of the police, the owners of the company, etc.� @CWSURPRENANT, cheering for the viral, feel-good story of Walter Carr, who walked nearly 20 miles last week to get to his first day at his new job as a mover in Alabama after his car broke down. On the way, Carr met a police officer who took him to breakfast. Another police officer dropped him off at the job.

The homeowner who he helped move, Jenny Lamey, started a GoFundMe to help Carr with his vehicle costs, and it has since raised more than $65,000. Then, on Monday, the CEO of the moving company gave Carr his own 2014 Ford Escape.

FEUDS

Tyrese learns people control their emotions

So … Meghan’s half-sister seems chill Meghan Markle’s halfsister, Samantha Markle, slammed the Duchess of Sussex on Tuesday for apparently freezing out her father. After Meghan and Prince Harry paid tribute to Nelson Mandela on Tuesday, Samantha tweeted: “How about you pay tribute to your own father?! Enough is enough.

Act like a humanitarian, act like a woman. If our father dies I’m holding you responsible, Meg!” (EXPRESS)

Tyrese Gibson says he regrets his feud with co-star Dwayne Johnson over the release date for the next “Fast & Furious” film. Gibson called out Johnson in October after it became clear that Johnson’s commitment to filming the “Fast & Furious” spinoff “Hobbs and Shaw” would delay the ninth installment of the flagship franchise from April 2019 to April 2020. “We will have a conversation,” Gibson told “The Red Pill” podcast Tuesday. “I found myself being the messenger on behalf of various people associated to the franchise, but stupid me was the only one who went public about those feelings, which is my own fault. It’s not professional, it’s not cool.” (EXPRESS)

Williams seeking treatment to improve mental health

Album reaction left Perry coping with depression

Destiny’s Child singer Michelle Williams said in an Instagram post Tuesday that she’s seeking help for mental health issues she has struggled with for years. “Today I proudly, happily and healthily stand here as someone who will continue to always lead by example as I tirelessly advocate for the betterment of those in need,” she wrote. (EXPRESS/AP)

Pop star Katy Perry says she suffers from “situational depression.”

Katy Perry said she suffered “situational depression” following the negative reaction to her 2017 album “Witness.”

“My heart was broken last year because, unknowingly, I put so much validity in the reaction of the public, and the public didn’t react in the way I had expected,” Perry told Vogue Australia on Wednesday. The pop star said she recovered by spending a week at a personal growth retreat in California. (EXPRESS)

Jamie Foxx and Katie Holmes were spotted on a date Monday night in Manhattan after rumors they had broken up last month.

The actors arrived at an upscale restaurant in a limousine SUV and walked in separately before sitting together “in a dark area at the back of the restaurant,” a source told E! News. Foxx and Holmes then left using separate exits. (EXPRESS)
