Sen. Van Hollen proposes bill honoring Douglass
SONIA RAO (THE WASHINGTON POST)
THE DISTRICT Frequent visitors to the U Street corridor might be pleased to hear that Fast Gourmet, a popular sandwich shop once located inside the gritty gas station at 14th and W streets NW, has been replaced with the similar Panino Gourmet. But to Lina Chovil, co-owner of Fast Gourmet, the new place is a little too similar. “It was identical,” Chovil said. “The same menu, the same items, the same names, the same prices. It’s even the same chalkboard.” There are indeed striking similarities between the two menus. According to photos on Yelp and Instagram, much of what fell under “Perros” at Fast Gourmet can be found under “Urban Dogs” at Panino, and a section called “Flair” appears on both chalkboards with almost identical offerings. Many sandwiches at Panino appear to imitate Fast Gourmet’s construction. The meatball sandwiches,

for example, are both made with Angus beef, chorizo, marinara and a fontina garlic baguette, while both pulled pork sandwiches include pineapple and lemongrass coleslaw. Several salads and wraps share a name as well. Notable on Panino’s menu is the name of the chef, Jose Melgar. He worked at Fast Gourmet as a cook, Chovil said, using what she alleged were the recipes of a former partner, Juan Olivera. Johanna Hezchias, part owner of Panino, said it is “unfortunate” that Chovil accused Melgar of
being a thief. Hezchias said she and the other owner, a silent investor, came across the vacant space, met with Melgar and “basically reopened the restaurant that was once so popular.” She decided to let him handle the menu because of his experience cooking for Fast Gourmet, and said that he came up with the recipes himself. “It was an executive decision on my end to let the chef do what he does best,” Hezchias said. “He was working there for seven years. These are the dishes he loved to make.” SONIA RAO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Federal ruling moves Purple Line ahead
BALTIMORE
Lawyer: Bodycam video shows evidence planting
Md. must first secure $900M in federal aid as court fight lingers
PURPLE LINE TRANSIT PARTNERS
TRANSPORTATION A federal appeals court ruling Wednesday will allow Maryland to begin building the Purple Line while a lawsuit opposing the project continues, clearing the way for the state to pursue federal funding for a light-rail plan that has faced nearly a year of legal delays. In a major victory for the state, the appellate court reinstated the Purple Line’s environmental approval as a court fight continues over a 2014 federal lawsuit seeking to block the project. The ruling allows the state to try to secure $900 million in federal grants for the more than $2 billion construction project while it appeals an unfavorable ruling in the lawsuit. The Trump administration has proposed cutting off federal aid for new transit construction but has said in budget documents that it’s still considering the Purple Line for federal funding. The key question is whether the Federal Transit Administration will consider the ruling to provide enough legal certainty to sign a multiyear funding agreement with the state for nearly $1 billion in federal aid.
WEATHER
A federal appeals court ruling has cleared the path for Maryland to move ahead with a project connecting Montgomery and Prince George’s counties.
State officials have said construction on the 16-mile rail line between Montgomery and Prince George’s counties could begin within a few weeks of receiving the federal funding commitment. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit put on hold the 2016 ruling from a lowercourt judge, who had revoked the project’s federal environmental approval until the state recalculated the Purple Line’s ridership projections to reflect Metro’s declining ridership. The state is continuing to appeal a ruling by U.S. District Judge Richard J. Leon that the state study of the Purple Line’s environmental impacts gave short shrift to the potential effect
that Metro’s safety problems and declining ridership could have on the light-rail line. Leon ordered that the Purple Line’s environmental approval be suspended in August 2016 until the state updates the ridership forecasts in a new environmental review. The state has not reopened the review, saying it was unnecessary because the Federal Transit Administration has found that the Purple Line would have a “robust” ridership, even if Metro contributed no riders. The Purple Line would be operated separately from Metro, but 27 percent of the light-rail line’s passengers are expected to come from people transferring to and from Metrorail stations.

D.C. heat wave won’t let up till Tuesday The temperature in D.C. has soared to at least 90 degrees for three straight days, and the heat will only grow more intense heading into the weekend. This heat wave is destined to be the hottest and longest-lasting of the summer (so far). Friday and Saturday are likely to be the hottest days, when highs reach the upper 90s to around 100. Factoring in the humidity, it will feel like 105 to 110 degrees. By the heat wave’s final day next Monday, the region will have posted eight straight days with highs of at least 90 — passing the year’s two previous longest streaks of six days. Nighttime temperatures are also predicted to be unusually warm, with lows hovering near 80 or hotter. (TWP)

local Calls for a new election come after allegations of misconduct in 2015 TRANSPORTATION A federal judge has ordered Metro’s largest union to conduct new officer elections under the supervision of the U.S. labor secretary, after former Labor Secretary Tom Perez alleged the union bent the rules in an election 19 months ago, possibly affecting its outcome. The Labor Department alleged that the union failed to provide
adequate notice of the 2015 election and allowed members who were not in good standing to vote and run for officer positions. In a ruling filed Tuesday, U.S. District Judge George J. Hazel granted the Labor Department’s motion for summary judgment asking for new elections, saying Amalgamated Transit Union Local 689 had failed to dispute the allegations against it. Hazel ordered new elections for 22 of 40 officer positions, including executive positions such as president and first and second vice president, and key

titles such as financial secretarytreasurer. The Dec. 2, 2015, vote had resulted in the reelection of Jackie L. Jeter as union president. She has held the office since 2007. The ruling came as a blow to Local 689, which had argued that while it did not follow election rules “to the letter” it did not act in bad faith. The labor group said paying $300,000 to redo the vote would be an unfair punishment. “We are currently reviewing the decision and looking into all of our options,” said David Stephen, spokesman for ATU Local 689.

An underwater robot is being used to probe a reactor destroyed in 2011.
Robot assessing damaged reactor FUKUSHIMA, JAPAN An underwater robot entered a badly damaged reactor at Japan’s crippled Fukushima nuclear plant Wednesday, capturing images of the harsh impact of its meltdown, including key structures that were knocked out of place. Plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Co. said the robot, nicknamed “the Little Sunfish,” successfully completed the day’s work in the primary containment vessel of the Unit 3 reactor, which was destroyed by an earthquake and tsunami in March 2011. TEPCO spokesman Takahiro Kimoto praised the work, saying the robot captured views of the underwater damage that had not been seen before. But he said the images contained no obvious sign of the melted nuclear fuel that researchers hope to locate. The robot was left inside the reactor, and is expected to go
deeper inside for a fuller investigation Friday in hopes of finding the melted fuel. “The damage to the structures was caused by the melted fuel or its heat,” Kimoto said. The robot, about the size of a loaf of bread, is equipped with lights, maneuvers with five propellers and collects data with two cameras and a device that measures an absorbed dose of ionizing radiation. It is controlled remotely by four operators. Such robots are key to the decades-long decommissioning of the damaged plant. Extremely high levels of radiation and structural damage have hampered earlier probes at two other reactors at the plant. Japanese officials want to determine preliminary methods for removing the melted nuclear fuel this summer and start work in 2021. MARI YAMAGUCHI (AP)

Trump insists deal is close President shifts course, tells senators to stay in D.C. to finish health bill
Supreme Court keeps Trump’s ban on refugees PABLO MARTINEZ MONSIVAIS (AP)
POLITICS Hoping to avoid a humiliating political defeat, President Trump on Wednesday demanded that Republican senators resume their efforts to approve a plan to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act, insisting that lawmakers are “very close.” A day after the GOP strategy to roll back the ACA appeared dead, Trump invited Republican senators to lunch at the White House and challenged them to work out an agreement even if it means remaining in Washington through their summer recess next month. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., had previously announced that the recess would be delayed until the third week of August. “People should not leave town unless we have a health insurance plan, unless we give our people great health care,” Trump said. “We’re close, very close. … We have to hammer this out and get it done.” Trump’s effort to resurrect talks came a day after he declared it was time to give up on the contentious process to overturn President Obama’s signature legislative achievement and “let Obamacare fail.” Trump touted what he said were benefits of the GOP plan — including the repeal of the individual mandate, expanded coverage options and getting rid of “burdensome taxes.”
President Trump sits with Nevada Sen. Dean Heller, who has wavered on the Republican plan, at a lunch Wednesday.
The president, who was seated next to Sen. Dean Heller of Nevada, a Republican who has wavered on the GOP plan, also appeared to issue a veiled threat that he would campaign against Republicans who stood in his way. “He wants to remain a senator, doesn’t he?” Trump said with a laugh at Heller, who also chuckled. Trump added: “Any senator voting against starting debate is telling the American people you’re fine with Obamacare.” Senate GOP leaders this week have said that the reality is there is not enough support for a replacement plan. With little room for error, McConnell abruptly switched course Monday after several Republicans announced they would block efforts to vote on a replacement bill.
CBO: 32M would lose out The Congressional Budget Office estimated Wednesday that the Senate’s plan to repeal part of the Affordable Care Act with no immediate replacement would increase the number of people without health coverage by 17 million next year and 32 million at the end of a decade. The new report also said the legislation would decrease federal deficits by $473 billion over that 10-year window. (TWP)
Instead, McConnell announced plans to vote early next week on a straight repeal of the law with a two-year delay. But that strategy appeared doomed as well. McConnell told reporters that
he still intends to hold the vote next week on a repeal plan, but other key senators suggested they would need an acceptable replacement before agreeing to move forward. Said Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn.: “I don’t think there are 40 votes” for a repeal-only bill. Trump, as he has done before, reminded the lawmakers that Republicans campaigned against the ACA for years and their supporters are counting on them to make good on their promises. “I’m ready to act,” Trump said. “I have my pen in hand. … For seven years, you’ve had the easy route — we repeal, we replace, but he [Obama] never signs it. I’m signing it. So it’s a little different.” DAVID NAKAMURA (THE WASHINGTON POST)

NATIONAL SECURITY The Supreme Court says the Trump administration can strictly enforce its ban on refugees, but at the same time is leaving in place a weakened travel ban that includes grandparents among relatives who can help visitors from six mostly Muslim countries get into the United States. The justices acted Wednesday on the administration’s appeal of a federal judge’s ruling last week. U.S. District Judge Derrick Watson ordered the government to allow in refugees formally working with a resettlement agency in the United States, and vastly expanded the family relations that refugees and visitors can use. The high court blocked Watson’s order as it applies to refugees for now, but left in place the expanded list of relatives. The justices said the federal appeals court in San Francisco should now consider the appeal. It’s not clear how quickly that will happen. In the meantime, though, up to 24,000 refugees who already have been assigned to a charity or religious organization in the U.S. will not be able to use that connection to get into the country. Justices Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch and Clarence Thomas would have blocked Watson’s order in its entirety. Those same three justices said last month they would have allowed the Trump travel ban to take full effect. MARK SHERMAN (AP)

President Trump has decided to end the CIA’s covert program to arm and train moderate Syrian rebels battling the government of Bashar al-Assad, a move long sought by Russia, according to U.S. officials. The program was a central plank of a policy begun by the Obama administration in 2013 to put pressure on Assad to step aside, but even its backers have questioned its efficacy since Russia deployed forces in Syria two years later. Officials said the phasing out of the program reflects Trump’s interest in finding ways to work with Russia, which saw the program as an assault on its interests. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

ANALYSIS For the first time in O.J. Simpson’s long life, something involving the former football star seems destined to proceed smoothly and without controversy, when the Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners meets today to consider his fate. Simpson is eligible for parole after serving the mandatory nine years of a 33-year sentence for armed robbery, and the largely administrative hearing is expected to draw ESPN, Fox, NBC and CNN and other outlets for live coverage in Carson City. ESPN coverage starts at 1 p.m. Although the media crush will be considerably smaller, some faces will be familiar to those who remember his 1995 trial and acquittal for two murders or saw the recent documentary and miniseries on the trial. Chris Darden, one of the prosecutors in ’95, will provide analysis for NBC, and Mark Fuhrman, the former police officer whose testimony was discredited during the trial, will be on the air for Fox. During the proceeding, four commissioners will question Prisoner No. 1027820, who will be about 100 miles away in Lovelock Correctional Center, via video conference.

nor prosecutors are expected to oppose his parole. “He’s been a model inmate,” his former lawyer, Yale Galanter, told the New York Daily News. “He’s had no write-ups, no disciplinary issues. By all accounts, he’s totally abided by the rules.” The parole board, in an effort to limit the circus, plans to take the unusual step of issuing its ruling quickly today. Ordinarily, it can take weeks for a decision.

If parole is granted, he’s ready to resume another sport. “He says, ‘Tell them we’ll be playing golf again soon,’ ” Scotto said, describing a conversation with Simpson. “He just says, ‘We’ll be together again, my life will go back to normal.’ He’s very positive.

A good night’s sleep is crucial not only to feeling good the next day. There is increasing evidence that it may also protect against dementia, according to research presented Tuesday in London at the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference. Studies at Wheaton College in Illinois found connections between breathing disorders that interrupt sleep and the accumulation of biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease. Treating the problems with dental appliances or CPAP machines that force air into airways could help lower the risk of dementia or slow its progress, the researchers said. In one study of 516 cognitively normal adults aged 71 to 78, those with sleep-disordered breathing had greater increases in beta-amyloid deposits — one of the biomarkers — over three years. This was true regardless of whether they had the APOE-e4 gene, considered a risk factor for Alzheimer’s. A second study found obstructive sleep apnea was associated with increases in amyloid buildup in older people with mild cognitive impairment (MCI). A third found a link in both normal and MCI subjects. While a link between sleep apnea and dementia has been documented before, these are among the first longitudinal studies to look at the link between sleep disruption and Alzheimer’s biomarkers.

Netanyahu was discussing Iran, Syria, the Islamic State, and EU-Israel relations when some of his comments — and those of other leaders at the meeting closed to the media
— were accidentally broadcast to journalists in another room. Netanyahu also made a rare public admission that Israel has struck Iranian arms convoys in Syria bound for Hezbollah “dozens and dozens of times.” The Israeli premier was overheard blasting the EU’s approach to Israel, saying “it’s crazy. I think it’s actually crazy” that the 28-nation bloc maintains that resolving the Israeli-Palestinian conflict must come before closer trade ties. “There is no logic here. Europe is undermining its security by undermining Israel. Europe

On hot mic, Israeli PM blasts the EU
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was overheard saying the EU approach to Israel is “crazy.”
Federal officials reviewing 2015 Cincinnati police shooting of Sam DuBose, an unarmed black man
is undermining its progress by undermining the connection with Israeli innovation because of a crazy attempt to create conditions [for peace],” Netanyahu said. The EU doesn’t recognize Israeli sovereignty over territories it captured in the 1967 Mideast war, including the West Bank and east Jerusalem, where the Palestinians hope to establish a state. It has been a vocal critic of Israel’s settlement construction and has adopted measures mandating the labeling of goods produced in West Bank settlements. PABLO GORONDI AND ILAN BEN ZION (AP)
GENITAL MUTILATION
13K
The number of girls in Germany at risk of being forced to undergo genital mutilation, the women’s advocacy group Terre des Femmes said Tuesday. The number rose sharply this year because most of the affected girls recently moved to Germany from countries such as Iraq, Somalia, Eritrea and Ethiopia, where genital mutilation is common. (AP)

Wizards owner Ted Leonsis snaps a selfie with forward Otto Porter Jr. on Wednesday.
Cash without change
Wizards insist they want Porter to keep complementary role with max contract NBA Otto Porter Jr. showed up for his big reveal as the Wizards’ highest-paid player looking bespoke in a gray plaid suit, a plum necktie and — when it came time to pose for photos with owner Ted Leonsis, president Ernie Grunfeld and coach Scott Brooks — a $106 million dollar smile. Although Porter looked the part, he said the contract hasn’t changed him, as he has prioritized giving money back to his high school in Sikeston, Mo., his church and, of course, his mom. The Wizards are also hoping the money doesn’t change Porter’s game.
“He’s not about stats,” Brooks said. “He can score more and I get that and I appreciate it, but he’s willing to sacrifice his own game for the betterment of the team.” During the Wizards’ news conference Wednesday, the main themes focused on continuity and fit. Washington matched the four-year, $106 million maximum contract offer sheet from the Nets so that Porter, a restricted free agent, could remain within the core that includes John Wall and Bradley Beal. There’s an organizational belief that Porter’s selfless attributes as the third player in the Wizards’ hierarchy
“We want a max team, and it would be bad for us if the optics were, ‘you have to earn your contract.’ ” WIZARDS OWNER TED LEONSIS,
on his desire not to put pressure on $106 million man Otto Porter Jr.
allows the team to thrive. Even so, Porter’s price tag will naturally increase scrutiny. He will earn roughly $24.7 million next season, more than his higher-scoring teammates Wall and Beal, and understands this role comes with more obligations. “The work is just now starting,”
Porter said. “Taking on that responsibility … comes with it.” Still, team brass would prefer Porter remains the same small forward who averaged 13.4 points and 6.4 rebounds last season. “ I don’t th i nk Otto wi l l change,” Leonsis said. “I think he’ll improve his game, but we don’t want Otto to have more on his shoulders, nor any of our players, now that they’re a max player. “Now what we want is no more talk of contracts and dollars. It should be about wins.” After retaining Porter, five of the Wizards’ top six players are 27 or younger. And, their big three of Wall, Beal and Porter has already played three postseasons together.

With Mystics guard Tayler Hill lost for the season and forward Elena Delle Donne sidelined with a sprained ankle, Kristi Toliver stepped out of her comfort zone as a role player in a 100-96 overtime win over the Atlanta Dream on Wednesday at Verizon Center. Toliver made seven 3-pointers with 29 points, a season-high for any Mystics player.

Panthers bring back Hurney as interim general manager
Crawford spurns finalists to sign with Timberwolves
Still inactive, Werth reveals he has a fracture in his foot
Carolina has rehired Marty Hurney, who served as general manager from 1998-2012, as interim GM. He replaces Dave Gettleman, who was fired this week in a surprise move. Panthers owner Jerry Richardson said in a release Wednesday that Hurney “is the perfect person to help us in the interim. He worked with us for 15 years and understands the culture we have here.” Hurney drafted quarterback Cam Newton, linebackers Luke Kuechly and Thomas Davis, center Ryan Kalil and defensive end Charles Johnson, and traded for tight end Greg Olsen — all of whom are team captains. (AP)
After meeting in the NBA Finals for three straight seasons, the Warriors and Cavaliers dueled again this summer when both came calling for Jamal Crawford. But the veteran guard made a surprise decision when he picked the Timberwolves instead. Minnesota made the signing official Wednesday. Crawford, 37, spent the last five years with the Clippers and was traded to the Hawks, who bought out his contract. He said he considered playing time and fit when choosing a team that hasn’t made the playoffs in 13 seasons. He’s looking forward to building something with the Wolves, who signed him to a twoyear deal worth nearly $9 million. (AP)
Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth, who was supposed to return this week but remains inactive, explained Tuesday why the ball he fouled off his foot has cost him six weeks and counting. Werth has a fracture in the first metatarsal of his left foot, which he has known since the injury first occurred. The Nationals hadn’t shared that information. Manager Dusty Baker said last weekend there was nothing more than a bruise in the foot. Werth said the bone bruise in the area is what is really causing him trouble, preventing the bone from bearing his weight when he tries to run. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

B. Doughnut pops up at Union Market to enrage bagel purists POP-UPS Reading the menu at B. Doughnut’s new Union Market stall, you may think two pages of a cookbook accidentally got stuck together. “Everything bagel doughnuts”? That can’t be right.
In reality, the fusion is very deliberate. Brian Chanthapanya and his wife, Pin, spend up to 12 hours per batch meticulously preparing the dough for these treats. They come with whipped cream cheese filling, available in three flavors — bacon, chive and lox — as well in traditional sweet varieties, with flavors including vanilla bean, chocolate creme and lemon curd.
MARLA THACH PHOTOGRAPHY
Bagel doughnut: A breakfast for indecisive eaters B. Doughnut’s bagel doughnuts come with chive, bacon or lox filling.
The Chanthapanyas start with a recipe for malasadas — Portuguese-style doughnuts made with yeast-leavened dough that are popular throughout Hawaii. At the new pop-up from this Leesburg, Va.-based bakery,
running through Aug. 13, the savory options ($3 each) are likely to cause the most double takes. The yeast-leavened dough is fluffy, light and neutral enough to act as a blank canvas for experimental riffs — which is why
the cream cheese fillings work so well. The doughnuts are handdipped in everything spice, and eating one is like sinking your teeth into an airy, pillowy bagel. One tip: Make sure to consume them within an hour of ordering. Otherwise, the salt crystals will moisten the dough, resulting in soggy bagel doughnuts. For the purists out there, try B. Doughnut’s cinnamon sugar option. As for the haters: Go grab a bagel from the pop-up’s neighbors at Buffalo & Bergen. HOLLEY SIMMONS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Finding a home in the kitchen POP-UPS Tibetan refugee Lobsang Dorjee Tsering has tested out his plump momos — Tibetan dumplings — on monks and friendly neighbors over the years. Now, D.C. diners can get a taste. “I still get nervous every time someone eats my food,” Tsering says. “I always want to make sure they like what I am making because I know it might be their first time trying [Tibetan food].” Tsering is introducing his restaurant concept, Dorjee Momo, to D.C.-area diners through a series of pop-up dinners this summer and fall. Those who were quick enough to secure a ticket to his first event at Sally’s Middle Name earlier this month enjoyed Tibetan dishes including yellow laphing (Nepalese rolled noodle crepes), juicy lamb momos and a troma (sweet yam) dessert. Born into a nomad family, Tsering moved into a Tibetan Buddhist monastery at 6 and began studying to become a monk. Per tradition, he also learned how to cook, spending hours each day kneading dough to bake for the monks. After 16 years, Tsering

sought new opportunities, so he trekked across the Himalayas and registered with the United Nations as a refugee in Dharamsala, India. “When I left the monastery, I thought to myself, ‘What can I do? I don’t have many skills or an education,’ ” Tsering says. “But I remembered how happy I felt while singing and cooking with
the other monks at the monastery and realized that I wanted to be a chef.” Tsering began working at a cafe in Dharamsala, eventually meeting his now-wife Amberjade, an American who was working in the region. The couple moved to D.C. in 2014 when Amberjade began graduate school at George Washington University,
and Tsering began working in kitchens at Bullfrog Bagels, Maketto and Sospeso. Between shifts, he made momos for his neighbors. “Some mornings, I’d wake up to the sound of Dorjee pounding dough, getting ready to make momos,” says Peter Aquino, a former neighbor of Tsering’s. “Good food doesn’t go unnoticed in D.C., and I think people will be able to taste that his food is made with love.” Eventually, with money raised from Kiva, an online lending platform that helps traditionally underserved minorities receive microloans, Tsering was able to join the food incubator Union Kitchen, where he develops recipes and plans his business. Tsering’s goal is to eventually open a brick-and-mortar restaurant in D.C. that will train and hire other refugees, but in the meantime he gets inspired by watching his diners from the comforting confines of the kitchen. “When I see people eating my food and happily talking to each other, I feel like, ‘Wow, I did it. I’ve given them something special with my food,’ ” Tsering says. “It gives me confidence, and keeps me going.” VICTORIA MILKO (FOR EXPRESS)

THERE ARE SOME COSTUMES THAT BECOME ICONS. Batman’s cowl. Belle’s yellow gown. When it comes to musical theater, almost nothing matches Anna’s skirts. In Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “The King and I,” which arrived Tuesday at the Kennedy Center, Anna (Laura Michelle Kelly) is an English teacher hired by the King of Siam (Jose Llana) to give his children a Western education. As was the fashion in the 1860s, her skirts have a pretty impressive circumference — particularly her formal ball gown. Laci Roberts, the wardrobe supervisor for the Lincoln Center Theater’s touring production of the musical, took us through the ins and outs of Anna’s costumes. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)
Baby got back
SHEER MAG WED AUG 23 WE ARE 3 BLOCKS FROM THE U STREET / CARDOZO METRO STATION TICKETS: www.TICKETFLY.com
The swirling dervish of a ball gown, shown above, is the biggest of Anna’s costumes. The dress is worn with two crinoline petticoats, plus two cages — frames that puff the dress out in the back. The complete outfit weighs 40 pounds, Roberts says.
“It takes two people to get her into that one.”
Keep it clean As you might have guessed, this ball gown is not a wash-and-wear item. The crinolines are handwashed by spraying them down in a shower; the cages are dipped
into a cleaning solution. The dress itself, a satin-silk blend, is dry-clean only, but don’t expect to see Roberts dropping it off at the “any garment $5” spot. “Every city we play, the theaters have the one dry cleaners that they use; they do all the shows that come into town,” Roberts says. “They’re very used to odd and strange costume pieces.”
Roll with it The show’s dresses, along with the rest of the costumes, travel from city to city in rolling closets called gondolas; the show has 14 of them. If the dresses get a little mushed, it’s not a big deal: Kelly’s dresser simply hangs them upside down and inside out, which enables them to fluff up again.
Sea legs Anna wears her smallest skirt at the beginning of the show, when she and her son arrive in Siam. It’s not a nod to fashion, but to practicality. “She’s got to get around on a boat,” Roberts says.
She shall dance Anna is the kind of role that can put a lot of weight on an actress’s shoulders; more literally, it puts weight on her hips. “She’s almost like an athlete, she’s got so much weight on,” Roberts says of Kelly. “Plus she’s singing, plus she’s dancing. She’s got her days where she’s like, ‘Oh, this is so heavy,’ but she’s a trooper and she just does it. She never complains about it.” Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; through Aug. 20, $49-$159.

Playing the soundtrack of his life
Composer Hans Zimmer is taking center stage. Reluctantly. After scoring more than 120 films and winning an Oscar, two Golden Globes, four Grammys and just about every other music award around, Zimmer, 59, is touring the world playing those award-winning compositions. Along with an assortment of musicians, the multi-instrumentalist has been performing selections from “Gladiator,” “Pirates of the Caribbean,” “Inception” and more to receptive crowds (including festival audiences over two April weekends at Coachella). Unlike most concerts involving film scores, this one won’t have movie clips projected behind the orchestra; it’s just Zimmer, his music, the orchestra and you, the audience. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS) How has the tour been going so far? I have no idea what I’m doing. So it’s all good. How did this idea come about? The whole point was to see if [the scores] could stand on their own two feet. It does help that I have the most extraordinary
musicians around me. If anybody pushed me out there, it was them. I blame them; I’m just an innocent bystander. I could have done another 20 years living in my dark room with no windows doing film scores. But no, everybody had to go and say, “Go play in front of people.” And I have to say it’s an absolute pleasure.
Hans Zimmer plays his film scores on various instruments, including guitar, along with an orchestra on his tour.
When your work is part of a film, it’s been perfected and edited, something you don’t get in concert. Is that nerve-wracking? The nerve-wracking part never leaves me. As one of my musicians rightly said to me, “You cannot have your life dictated by fear.” I’m thinking they were
completely wrong and I should have my life dictated by fear, and that would be nice. But I don’t think I could ever get these musicians to ever come together and perform like this again. Why not have a once-in-alifetime, extraordinary, extreme adventure?
JOE ELEY
How did you select what you’d play? My original setlist was roughly 90 seconds long. So I went to the band and said, “OK, you guys tell me what to play.” I didn’t want to do “Gladiator,” [but] suddenly there’s “Gladiator.” Part of it had to be something we wanted to play because we knew we’d be playing it day in and day out for quite a while, so it had to be excerpts we enjoyed playing. There had to be a bit of selfishness involved. How will this experience influence you as a composer going forward? There comes a point where any film composer has to do this. You have to go and get out from behind the screen and look people in the eye. At the end of the day, all film composers are storytellers. I think the thing that is happening is I’m just learning how to be a better storyteller because I’m learning what resonates and what doesn’t resonate with the audience. I love the experience of learning things, and the audience has been teaching me.

weekendpass A competing house assembles for a drag ball in “Wig Out!” at Studio Theatre.
Beauty of the moment STAGE Just as the lights go down before the opening scene of “Wig Out!,” now running at Studio Theatre, an actor’s voice echoes through the theater, reading a note from the playwright: “By the time this play is produced, assuming the motherf---er is produced, half of the language and song will already be antiquated, bitches.” It’s a gutsy way to kick off a performance, but gutsy is the play’s style. “Wig Out!,” penned by Tarell Alvin McCraney, who earned an Oscar in February for co-writing the screenplay of best picture winner “Moonlight,” is set in the glamorous world of African-American drag balls. In these competitions, a staple of the urban LGBT performance scene, rival houses — safe havens for those unwelcome in their own families — face off in turf wars by way of runway competitions. At the center of the play are two fictional camps: the House of Light, with legendary drag mother Rey-Rey and rising drag star Ms. Nina, and its challengers at the House of Di’Abolique. If it sounds over-the-top, that’s because it is. A drag ball, with ambitious glamour-goddesses at the helm, calls for spectacle. The challenge for director Kent Gash was to present that in the
confined area of Stage 4, Studio Theatre’s black-box space. His solution was to seat viewers in the four corners of the room facing inward, creating a cross-shaped stage — fit for runway strutting — at the center. Gash says he, set designer Jason Sherwood and lighting designer Dawn Chiang wanted to create a space where both performers and viewers “have a moment of walking in that runway.” “Because the play is also very much about perceptions and how we see each other,” Gash says, “I felt it was critically important that we not only see the play, but that we see the collective community of the audience seeing the play.” As the playwright’s opening note warns, the script is brimming with contemporary pop culture hat tips (“Excuse me, Olivia and Fitz, but how do we combat all this scandal?”) and shade-throwing spats (“Know he was born in Westchester with that clip-on accent”). There’s even an “alternative facts” reference. McCraney and the cast gathered in February to freshen up the script of the 9-year-old play, and McCraney continued to add timely references right up to the show’s debut. Gash says these allusions ground the story in the America of today.
TERESA WOOD
Set in the world of drag balls, ‘Wig Out!’ aims to capture the spectacular now
“We are telling this story in Washington, D.C., in Donald Trump’s America, and we can’t ignore that,” Gash says. The rich dialogue, he adds, is a testament to McCraney’s ability to allow language to transcend the “intellectual immediate understanding of absolutely every word.” “The language is extremely specific, it’s extremely particular,” Gash says, “but just like Shakespeare, even if there are words you may not understand,
you absolutely feel the human experience, which is what any work of art is about.” Human connection — the desire for it and the understanding of it — is an overarching theme of “Wig Out!” The story’s characters build a wild, vibrant world, and, like McCraney’s exploration of identity in “Moonlight,” they shape their individual ideas of home, sexuality, love and family. “Hopefully, [viewers] come away not thinking about drag
culture, not thinking about how different people are,” Gash says, “but how the need to belong, the need to have an origin that feels genuine to you, the need to connect, the need to give and receive love, is … at the center of every human experience and every human interaction. And if it’s not, it should be, and we all have work to do.” BRYANNA CAPPADONA (EXPRESS)

Concert Hall, Thu., 8 p.m., sold out
The Kennedy Center is again teaming with Brightest Young Things’ Bentzen Ball festival for a bunch of live podcast recordings, highlighted by “Wet Hot American Summer” and “The State” alum Michael Ian Black’s “How to Be Amazing.” On the show, Black chats with successful, interesting people from all walks of life to try and figure out how they got to where they are today. For this taping, he’ll talk with political activist, “Pod Save the People” host and former Baltimore mayoral candidate DeRay Mckesson.
The most interesting show on the schedule pairs “Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt” co-stars and “30 Rock” vets Jane Krakowski and Tituss Burgess with the NSO Pops for a night that will be as musical as it is humorous. The pair are expected to sing songs from the stage and the screen — Burgess has been known to do “Little Mermaid” songs live — and if attendees are lucky, they’ll get Krakowski’s “Rural Juror” song from “30 Rock” and Burgess’ “Peeno Noir” from “Kimmy.”

1982 was a great year, except for those of you who don’t remember it, in which case you are too young and should find yourself a lawn that you should get off of. The AFI Silver is celebrating the year with its week-long “Fantastic ’82” series, which includes, well, movies that came out in 1982. It kicks off Friday with “Poltergeist,” which made TV static scary; turn it into a double feature with a showing later that night of “The Thing,” which made doing science in Antarctica scary. You can also catch “E.T. The Extra-Terrestrial,” “Tron” and “Star Trek II: The Wrath of KHHHAAAAAAAAANNNNN.” AFI Silver, 8633 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; Fri.-July 27, $13 per movie.

One of the country’s fastest-rising comics is coming home. Social media personality Brandon Wardell, who got his start in D.C. bars and comedy clubs before moving to Los Angeles and befriending Bo Burnham, Paul Scheer and John Mayer, returns for a stand-up showcase with his old pals Stavros Halkias and Jamel Johnson, who have also left D.C. for greener comedy pastures.

Though “Night Train” is also a Seeso series, it was born in Brooklyn, inside the performance art space Littlefield, where Wyatt Cenac hosts this weekly stand-up show. The former “Daily Show” and current “People of Earth” star will host several of the festival’s performers — including Maryland native Judah Friedlander (“30 Rock”) and Virginia native Aparna Nancherla (“Love”) — for its final performance.

An architect (Thaneth Warakulnukroh) and his elephant buddy hit the road in search of the man’s childhood home in the 2017 Thai movie “Pop Aye.”
Road trip movies can be lots of fun, when two (or more) people sharing a ride learn a lot about one another and forge a stronger connection. Add an elephant and things get even better. “Pop Aye,” out of Thailand, is the story of a Thana, a vaguely depressed architect (Thaneth Warakulnukroh) who spots an old elephant pal of his while walking through Bangkok. After he buys Pop Aye (named after the spinach-eating cartoon character), they head off to Thana’s old village, having adventures along the way. The film won the screenwriting award in the World Cinema Dramatic Competition at Sundance, and is a stompingly sweet story. Landmark E Street Cinema, 555 11th St. NW; opens Fri., $10-$12.50.
National Theatre Live: ‘Angels in America’ Oscar nominee and former Spider-Man Andrew Garfield is in London leading the National Theatre’s presentation of “Angels in America,” and now we can check in to see how he’s doing.

The rooftop pool at the Liaison Capitol Hill is usually quiet — unless you attend the semi-regular “Sip and Dip” parties.
Swim pickin’s These D.C.-area pools are ideal for lounging, laps or lazy summer days
Summer in Washington isn’t just hot — it’s a sticky, sweltering mess. And if you’re one of the unlucky many without a pool at your place, relief may seem far off. That’s where this roundup of the area’s best pools — either hiding in hotels or free to the public — comes in. Now get out there and find your oasis. MAURA JUDKIS, FRITZ HAHN, WINYAN SOO HOO AND MAIA SILBER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

1900 Connecticut Ave. NW; daily, 10 a.m.-8 p.m., $20.
Little Falls Parkway and Hillandale Road, Bethesda; Mondays-Fridays, 1-8 p.m., Saturdays & Sundays, noon8 p.m., $5-$7 (after 5:30 p.m., $4.50-$6.50) for residents, $8-$10 for nonresidents.
Here’s a secret about the Liaison hotel’s rooftop pool: If you show up after 5 p.m. on a weekday, it’s free to get in for happy hour. During the week, the lounge chairs are plenty and the cabanas, if not reserved ($150-$250), are free for the taking. The bar offers cocktails and light snacks (think pimento cheese or hummus plates). Some Sundays bring “Sip and Dip,” a raucous party with DJs. But on a recent Monday evening, the pool was quiet and tranquil.
For $50 to $60, you get access to one of the most attractive pools in D.C., nestled into the curve of the hotel. The area is surrounded by white-stone boxes holding trees, bamboo and bright-colored flowers, which help shield you from the busy noise of Thomas Circle. A small poolside bar sells draft beer and bottles of sparkling wine and takes orders for food from the hotel restaurant. Be warned: There’s no locker room, so you’ll wind up changing in the hotel bathroom.
The highlight here — besides the most affordable day pass of the bunch — is the gorgeous and ample seating area, with bronzecolored chaise lounge chairs. It’s often uncrowded and quiet; on a recent Sunday, only two guests used the small pool the entire day. You can bring your own food and drinks — only single servings, no beer packs or full bottles — or order a Corona or cocktail from the hotel bar or lobby market. The Courtyard’s Bistro bar also serves happyhour specials.
You’ll never feel overwhelmed by crowds at this enormous facility. But it’ll cost you: Unlike other public pools, this one has entry fees even for residents. The sizable Z-shaped main pool is 50 meters long, with six lap lanes and a wading area. Make your way to the diving board for a cannonball and climb out again for a ride down the drop slide.
There’s also a tot pool, a shallow teaching pool and an additional lap pool. Towering canopy tents shield loungers from the sun in a grassy knoll, where you can replenish with food and drinks.
Francis Pool 2435 N St. NW; Mondays & Wednesdays-Fridays, 11 a.m.8 p.m., Saturdays & Sundays, noon-6 p.m.
Located in the West End, Francis can seem like the District’s busiest pool. On a recent Sunday afternoon, 20-somethings and families with children vied for the shadiest spots at this site near Rock Creek. Kids will appreciate the pool’s large shallow section, while grownups may enjoy its 25-yard lap lanes and comfortable lounge chairs. Cries of “Marco!” and “Polo!” will provide a soundtrack

One of the larger pools in the District, Banneker benefits from a wide pool deck and a concession area. Its popularity can be a downer, though, with lines forming once the pool hits capacity on weekends, and people just throwing their towels on the concrete deck once all the chairs are gone. Still, the diving boards, separate kiddie pool and pop music playing through speakers make it worth trying on a steamy day.
Old Town Pool 1609 Cameron St., Alexandria; Mondays-Fridays, noon-8 p.m., Saturdays & Sundays, noon7 p.m., $2-$3 for residents, $5 for nonresidents.
The Old Town Pool is akin to an outdoor YMCA — reliable and sans frills. The site features a 25yard main pool with lap lanes, a separate kid-training pool, a diving well and a poolside basketball hoop. The pool is kid-friendly, as proven by the dozens of tots and teens usually playing around.
Water parks

Water park at Bohrer Park 512 S. Frederick Ave., Gaithersburg, Md.; $5.75 for residents, $10-$16 for nonresidents.
The main attractions at Bohrer Park are the two giant green slides. Sliders who want a leisurely journey should stick to the dark green, open-air slide. But if you want to go fast, the lime green one is more like a roller coaster. Splashdown Waterpark 7500 Ben Lomond Park Drive, Manassas, Va.; $5-$15.25.
Perhaps the most complete water park in the area, Splashdown has a lazy river, play areas and several slide options. Head straight for the pipeline slides that stand several stories tall, but be warned: Small children might bounce pretty high. Ocean Dunes 6060 Wilson Blvd., Arlington; $5.25-$8.50.
Filled with pool and play areas for younger visitors, this park also boasts bigger slides for thrill seekers, including one that keeps riders literally in the dark the whole time. When you’re done, the complex also offers mini-golf and batting cages. SAVANNAH STEPHENS (TWP)

Expect brooding banter, fistfuls of adrenaline and plenty of pyrotechnics as professional wrestling’s biggest stars start setting the table for next month’s “Summerslam,” one of the biggest events on the WWE calendar.

One of Northern Virginia’s coolest and quirkiest neighborhoods is on full display at the annual Del Ray Music Festival. This year, 11 local rock, folk and Brazilian jazz bands perform on stages along a three-block stretch of Mount Vernon Avenue while restaurants bring beer gardens to the closed streets, and families picnic and play in the grass. 2311 Mount
Local fans of singer-songwriter Chris Stapleton have caught a break: The injured finger that took his “All-American Road Show” off the road last month has healed enough for the tour to resume and roll through Northern Virginia. And he’s still riding high on the success of his latest album, “From a Room: Volume 1,” which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s country albums chart in May. Anderson East and Brent Cobb join Stapleton as openers. Jiffy Lube Live, 7800

Okkervil River’s 2016 album “Away” opens with the song “Okkervil River R.I.P.,” which serves as an epitaph, of sorts, for the indie band that Will Sheff started in 1998. By the time the album started coming together, most of the group’s members had left, Sheff was mourning the loss of his grandfather and he had started working with new collaborators. For Tuesday’s (mostly) sit-down show at the Hamilton, Sheff is again changing things up: Okkervil River are touring as a trio, taking requests online and vowing to

The duo (a long-married couple who are both blind) are trailblazers charting a new course for African music, much like Fela Kuti did with Afrobeat in the ’70s. Their latest album, “Folila,” features a number of guest performers, including Santigold and TV on the Radio’s Tunde Adebimpe and Kyp Malone.

Conor Oberst Bright Eyes frontman Conor Oberst’s past two albums under his own name — last year’s “Ruminations” and this year’s

Sweet Crude: New Orleans sextet Sweet Crude shows a different side of the Crescent City’s music scene. For one, the band is bilingual, singing songs in both English and French, the latter a nod to Louisiana’s Cajun history. Musically, on the group’s recently released album “Creatures,” Sweet Crude has an indie pop sound that owes more of a debt to Talking Heads or Arcade Fire than Louis Armstrong or the Meters. The band is opening for fellow NOLA act Tank and the Bangas on a tour that stops at Songbyrd Friday.

Taking another quack at it New TV show, comic book series revive beloved ‘DuckTales’
Foster the People finds a sweet spot
DISNEY XD
CARTOONS Disney’s most famous duck family is preparing for a highly anticipated comeback. The animated series “DuckTales” ran from 1987 to 1990, starring Scrooge McDuck and his triplet grand-nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie; Mrs. Beakley and her granddaughter Webby Vanderquack; and flight planchallenged pilot Launchpad McQuack. It now returns in an all new animated series debuting Aug. 12 on Disney XD. A new “DuckTales” comic book series from IDW is also rolling out. Issue No. 0 debuted Wednesday and the first issue arrives in September. “DuckTales” executive producer Matt Youngberg and coproducer/story editor Francisco Angones were tasked with taking a classic cartoon they both loved and making it fresh for a new generation while also appealing to older fans who made the original series such a hit. “The challenge is to re-create the feeling you had as a child when you watched it, but to do it using modern storytelling techniques,” Youngberg says. “Kids today have all of their entertainment at their fingertips, so they subconsciously expect more from storytelling than we did.” In the new animated adventures, Donald Duck takes his nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie to meet their extremely wealthy
Huey, Dewey and Louie are back to get mixed up in more shenanigans in Disney XD’s “DuckTales” reboot.
great-uncle, Scrooge McDuck. Uncle Scrooge has been retired from his famous globe-trotting tales for a long time, so the triplets aren’t really sure he lives up to the hype and don’t even know they’re related to him, which leads to the first of many adventures. “That idea allowed us to put modern viewers in the shoes of the nephews as they’re introduced to this amazingly weird, wonderful world,” Angones says. The series includes a talented cast of voice actors: former Dr. Who David Tennant as Uncle Scrooge, Danny Pudi of “Community” as Huey, Ben Schwartz of “Parks and Recreation” as Dewey, “Saturday Night Live’s” Bobby Moynihan as Louie, Kate Micucci of “Garfunkel and Oates”
as Webby and “Hamilton’s” L i n-M a nuel M ira nda as Fenton Crackshell-Cabrera/ Gizmoduck, a mechanical armored hero. Over at IDW, writer Joe Caramagna says some elements of stories appearing in the comic book could appear in later episodes of the cartoon — though issue No. 0 serves as a prequel to the Aug. 12 TV premiere. “If you want the full ‘DuckTales’ experience, you’ll want to follow both the comic and TV show,” says Caramagna, a lifelong fan of the original series. The producers at Disney XD
gave Caramagna a “DuckTales” Bible, multiple scripts and animated clips of the new series for research. “DuckTales is always about race cars, lasers and aeroplanes,” Caramagna adds. “But to me, it’s really about family. What makes a family? We have uncles and nephews and Mrs. Beakley and her granddaughter all under one roof — not exactly what society tells us is a ‘traditional’ setup — yet they’re a family, because the reality is that families come in all forms. So we explore what makes a family and figure out their interpersonal dynamics through conflict and characterdriven adventures as they solve mysteries and rewrite history.” DAVID BETANCOURT (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Two ‘Harry Potter’ history books are due in the fall
British publishing house Bloomsbury revealed it will release two books from the “Harry Potter” universe in October in conjunction with the British Library’s exhibition “A History of Magic,” honoring the series’ 20th anniversary. “Harry Potter: A History of Magic — The Book of the Exhibition” looks at wizarding school studies; “Harry Potter — A Journey Through a History of Magic” touches on mystical things like alchemy and unicorns.

Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s “Despacito” is most-streamed track ever, with 4.6 billion plays
MUSIC REVIEW For Foster the People, making sophisticated pop with thoughtful lyrics in danceable, candy-coated hooks has not been an easy challenge. On third album “Sacred Hearts Club,” however, the band finally finds the right mix. The record, out Friday, gets progressively more complex, delivering pure shimmering pop like “Pay the Man” and “Sit Next to Me” at the start, and ending with a glimpse of the band’s ambition in thrilling songs such as “Loyal Like Sid & Nancy” and “Harden the Paint.” Led by singer, guitarist and keyboardist Mark Foster, the band has undergone changes since creating hits like “Pumped Up Kicks” and “Houdini.” The former trio is now a quartet, with multi-instrumentalist Isom Innis also helping produce. Lyrically, the band ranges from obscure to simple. How many pop artists use the Arabic phrase “Inshallah” (“God willing”)? How many sing about Satan as he “realigns his face-lift”? Equally, how often do lyricists convey emotion as straightforwardly as “I just wanna say that I love you”? Compared to Foster the People’s last offering — the ambitious, yet ultimately unsatisfying “Supermodel” in 2014 — “Sacred Hearts Club” pairs joyous melodies with thought-provoking content in ever-increasing intricacy, and allows the band to find a sweet spot. MARK KENNEDY (AP)

trending “How do you get universal healthcare on top of a burger?” @PROTOTYPECUBE, tweeting at Inc. after the magazine shared a story on
social media with the headline “McDonald’s Just Rolled Out Burgers With Millennials’ Favorite Ingredient.” The headline didn’t give away what the ingredient was, so people started responding with guesses. In addition to universal health care, student loan debt forgiveness was a popular guess. Others suggested “ingredients” like affordable housing, Xanax and bacon, but none of those were correct. The real answer wasn’t even avocado. The piece, by Chris Matyszczyk, was actually about kale — specifically, the kale in McDonald’s Signature Sriracha sandwich. After having been tested starting last year, the burger is now available nationwide this month.

“At this point, Christie IS a foul ball.” @SUKIEJONES1920, reacting after New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie caught a foul ball in the stands at Citi Field during the Mets-Cardinals game on Tuesday night. The governor gave the ball to a young fan, but he was still booed by the crowd and roasted by one of the announcers. “Nice to see him get from the beach here to the ballpark,” Dan McLaughlin of Fox Sports said during the broadcast.

PAWEL POLJANSKI, a competitor in the Tour de France, sharing this image of his legs on Instagram after he completed the 16th stage of the 21-stage race. His caption may have been an understatement, but people got the message. “This pic shows the tortures you are going through. Hats off! You guys are awesome!” ronwoodmtv commented.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ll be impressed with someone’s simple approach. There are a few lessons you can take away from this interaction.

TODAY: A touch hotter than Wednesday as highs likely climb into the mid- to upper 90s. The high humidity should push the heat index into the 100-105 range. Skies should again be partly to mostly sunny, and a cooling shower or storm seems unlikely. Evening temperatures slowly edge back into the 80s.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’re
going to have to navigate a situation that isn’t favorable to your personal agenda. The decisions of others may leave you behind. ARIES (March 21-April 19) You’re ready to stake your claim, but don’t come on too strong, lest you turn a few supporters into detractors. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Progress is being made, and you must focus on the good things that have been happening. A loved one will give you a positive response.

Lorde shared Tuesday on “Late Night With Seth Meyers” that she once got trapped on a New York City subway train for four hours. “All I could think about was that I had a little oatmeal sachet in my bag,” she recalled. “And I was like, ‘If anyone finds out, this is going to be, like, a prized commodity.’ It’s going to be like ‘Lost!’ We’re going to be family now, we’re going to be here forever.” (EXPRESS)

Jennifer Lawrence reportedly vomited during a performance Monday of the Broadway show “1984.” A source told the New York Post that the actress “bolted from her seat” during the show and “several people saw her getting sick in the lobby.” When the Orwellian play opened in the spring, reports surfaced saying many theater-goers had physical reactions during particularly distressing scenes — although an insider told the Post that Lawrence is actually sick with the flu. The play’s star, Olivia Wilde, later tweeted, “As long as I have a play, Jennifer Lawrence has a place to puke.” (EXPRESS)
