A beer garden brouhaha THE DISTRICT The trade-off is a no-brainer for the owners of Dacha: A beer garden goes in on 14th Street NW, and a parking lot disappears.

The owners of the popular beer garden in Shaw leased the empty lot on the corner of 14th and S streets NW so they could open a second Dacha location on the bustling strip north of Logan Circle.

“It’s a dark, empty space now — we could be a light on that block,” said Dmitri Chekaldin, who opened Dacha’s Shaw location in 2013 with his business partner, Ilya Alter.

Neighbors have fiercely resisted the plans, however, hiring a lawyer and distributing “No Dacha” signs that appear in abundance in nearby yards. On July 16, after months of heated discussions, Chekaldin and Alter announced their revised plans, which include moving two-thirds of the proposed 600-person capacity indoors to reduce noise.

But many neighbors aren’t convinced.

on the 1400 block of S Street for 15 years, said he never before felt the need to protest a business.

That changed when he heard about Dacha, which initially presented plans for a large outdoor space and a playground for customers’ children.

“The noise would have been inescapable,” said Conklin, who is part of a group of nine neighbors who have filed an objection with the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board.

The group is considering the

“All I want is to be a good operator.

It’s come at a financial cost, but I’m listening to the concerns and responding to them.”

DMITRI CHEKALDIN, co-owner of the popular beer garden Dacha, who wants to open another location

revised plans — “we want to be fair to the owners,” Conklin said — but many are not swayed.

“We don’t have a lot of faith they’ll do what they say,” said Conklin, who has a “No Dacha” sign in front of his home.

If Dacha is approved for a liquor license for the 14th Street location, the owners hope to open it in September 2018.

A beer garden is more than a bar or a nightclub, said Chekaldin.

“It’s a social amenity,” he said.

“People in D.C. are always looking at their phones. When they come to Dacha, they start talking to each other.”

Children and pets are also welcome at Dacha, which is why initial plans included a playground, Chekaldin said. The revised plans include an indoor activity area where children can play, and a cafe and garden that will be open in the mornings.

That sort of daytime spot where families can go for coffee and a bagel is “sorely needed on 14th Street,” said Elizabeth D’Angio, who lives on the 1300 block of S Street NW. She said she had a “Yes Dacha” sign in her yard — until someone stole it. RACHEL CHASON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

In Va., ‘It’s grilling time’ Five women line up to challenge Rep. Brat in strongly GOP district Helen Alli

Rep. Dave Brat

on Nov. 8, I wasn’t sure what lay ahead of us,” said Susan Swecker, chairwoman of the Virginia Democrats. That feeling soon gave way to hope, she said. “The whole thing has been very exhilarating and exciting.”

Brat declined an interview for this story, but through an aide dismissed the pack of Democrats vying for the chance to take him on as acolytes of the House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

“Dave is hard at work keeping his promises to pass positive, principled policies that put our country back on the right track,” his chief of staff, Mark Kelly, said in a statement.

Democrats say their best chance to flip a House seat in Virginia is a district already represented by a woman who has

at times distanced herself from Trump. Rep. Barbara Comstock, of Northern Virginia, has seven Democratic opponents, four of whom are women.

Women hold about 20 percent of the 535 seats in Congress — 21 in the Senate and 84 in the House — according to the Center for American Women in Politics at Rutgers University.

Brat’s comments earlier this year encouraged liberal groups and constituents, some armed with “It’s grilling time” signs, to lash out at him at a rowdy town hall. Yet privately, Democrats say he will be tough to beat.

Buoyed by a reputation as the economics professor who unseated House Majority Leader Eric Cantor in 2014, Brat entered Congress with a national profile

and sailed to re-election two years later by double digits. Trump won his district by 6 points.

The primary race on the Democratic side will force candidates to spend money and resources while Brat keeps up his frequent TV appearances touting the causes of the hard-line House Freedom Caucus.

Asked how a Democrat who has never held office could emerge from a six-way nomination fight to topple a telegenic congressman with national notoriety, Democrats noted that stranger things have happened.

“Look, nobody thought Dave Brat was going to upset Eric Cantor,” said Swecker. “That was the upset of the century until now.” JENNA PORTNOY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

County quietly relocates rebel statue

The two-year saga of the Confederate statue next to Rockville’s Red Brick Courthouse ended over the weekend as workers relocated the 13-ton bronze soldier to its new home: near a privately run Potomac River ferry named for a confederate general. Montgomery County officials struck a deal last February with White’s Ferry Inc. to take the statue. Officials said they chose a quiet mid-summer Saturday to load the statue onto a flatbed truck in order to avoid protests or other incidents. The relocation cost about $100,000. (TWP)

THE WASHINGTON POST AND CANDIDATE CAMPAIGNS

RICHMOND When Rep. Dave Brat, R-Va., complained months ago that female constituents pressuring him to hold a town hall were “in my grill no matter where I go,” he didn’t know how prescient those words were.

Five women — and one man — are running for the Democratic nomination to challenge the twoterm congressman from suburban Richmond next year. The group includes Abigail Spanberger, 37, a former CIA operative; Eileen Bedell, 44, a civil attorney; Kim Gower, 54, a consultant; community activist Helen Alli, 52; and Janelle Noble, 35, an IT consultant. The only male candidate in the Democratic race, Dan Ward, served two stints in the Marines In a trend playing out across the country, women are entering House primary contests in record numbers in Virginia.

Many say they are running to channel their frustration with President Trump. Democratic organizations — long desperate for female candidates — are recruiting them aggressively.

For a Democratic Party riding high on activist fervor, even a long-shot district like Brat’s, which has been in Republican hands since the early 1970s, seems within reach.

TRANSPORTATION Two fiscal-minded policy experts have been appointed to serve as federal representatives on the board of the D.C. Metro — a move that suggests the Trump administration may be looking to institute further financial changes at the budgetchallenged transit agency.

The two appointees were announced by the U.S. Transportation Department on Monday. They are David Horner, a lawyer specializing in public-private partnerships, and Steve McMillin, a partner at the economic and public policy research firm U.S. Policy Metrics.

Both have extensive experience in the federal government. Horner is a former deputy assistant secretary in the Transportation Department and former chief counsel at the Federal Transit Administration.

According to the statement from the department, he “has acted as counsel on multiple landmark public-private partnership projects” McMillin served for three years as deputy director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, where he was responsible for “leading the development and execution of the federal government budget.”

McMillin and Horner will begin in their new roles immediately, in time for a meeting of the Metro board scheduled for Thursday.

local Gillespie and Northam are at 44 percent each as Trump looms large VIRGINIA The governor’s race is a dead heat, with Republican nominee Ed Gillespie tied with Democrat Ralph Northam, according to a survey released Monday.

The poll of likely voters by Monmouth University found Gillespie and Northam tied with 44 percent each. Libertarian candidate Cliff Hyra drew 3 percent, and 9 percent were

undecided.

President Trump, seen unfavorably by 57 percent of Virginia voters surveyed and favorably by 37 percent, is looming large in the November gubernatorial contest, the country’s marquee statewide race this year.

Nearly 4 in 10 voters said Trump was a factor in their choice for governor. Half of Northam supporters listed Trump as a factor in their choice, compared with one-third of Gillespie backers as well as undecided and third-party voters.

“A small but crucial portion

of Northam’s support is coming from voters who are primarily anti-Trump,” said Patrick Murray, director of the independent Monmouth University Polling Institute.

Northam, who called the president “a narcissistic maniac” in a widely seen campaign ad, appears to be benefiting from a Trump backlash. The poll found that if Trump were not a factor in the election, 12 percent of Northam voters would shift their support elsewhere, and Gillespie would have a 5-point lead.

local QUEEN ANNE’S COUNTY, MD. The National Weather Service confirmed Monday afternoon that an EF2 tornado rolled through the Eastern Shore around 1:30 that morning. Along with the damage residents woke up to Monday morning, the National Weather Service confirmed one injury to a person “punctured by debris.”

The tornado, which touched down in Stevensville, Md., produced winds up to 125 mph and was the first EF2 on the Eastern Shore since May 5, 2002.

nation+world After a monthslong legal fight, Charlie Gard will be allowed to die LONDON The parents of Charlie Gard, whose battle to get their critically ill baby experimental treatment stirred global sympathy and controversy, dropped their legal effort Monday, saying tearfully that it was time to let their son die.

At an emotional court hearing, a lawyer for the parents, Chris Gard and Connie Yates, said they were withdrawing a bid to have Charlie sent to the U.S., where a doctor had offered to try to treat his rare genetic condition. The decision came after new tests showed that the 11-month-old,

who has brain damage and cannot breathe unaided, had irreversible muscular damage.

Both parents wept in the courtroom as lawyer Grant Armstrong, his voice breaking, made the announcement: “This case is now about time. Sadly, time has run out.”

Outside the court, Chris Gard said: “We are about to do the hardest thing that we will ever have to do, which is to let our beautiful little Charlie go.”

Gard and Yates, who are in their 30s and from London, have fought ferociously for their son, who was born in August 2016 with mitochondrial depletion syndrome, a rare genetic disease.

He has been treated at Great Ormond Street Hospital in

Parents end battle for ill baby

Chris Gard and Connie Yates leave court Monday in London after they agreed to let their 11-month-old die.

London, one of the world’s top children’s hospitals. Doctors there say Charlie is in pain and further treatment would only increase

his suffering. They had sought permission from the courts to switch off his life support and let him die peacefully. His parents had resisted, arguing that an experimental treatment could extend and improve Charlie’s life.

The case gained wide attention after Charlie’s parents received support from Pope Francis and President Trump, among others.

The case became a flashpoint for opposing views on health care funding, medical intervention and the role of the state.

In Britain, children have rights independent of their parents, and it is usual for courts to intervene when parents and doctors disagree on a child’s treatment. CAROLINE SPIEZIO, JILL LAWLESS

15 pharmacology professors argue to stop Ohio execution, call drug used “unsuitable”

A South African girl, believed to have been infected with HIV around the time of birth, has remained free of the virus for 8 ½ years after early treatment — renewing hope among scientists that such outliers may hold clues to help end the decades-old epidemic.

The case study, described by researchers before a presentation Monday at an international AIDS conference in Paris, suggests a paradigm shift in the treatment of those infected. It establishes that HIV may be controllable in some way other than a daily and lifelong regimen of antiretroviral drugs.

“This is really the first step toward HIV remission and a cure,” said Deborah Persaud, a virologist at Johns Hopkins Children’s Center in Baltimore.

Out of the millions of children worldwide who are HIV-positive, the girl, now 9, is one of only three such cases identified by scientists where the virus was prevented from resurging for an extended period of time.

Anthony Fauci, head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, struck notes of both optimism and caution, describing the girl as being in “remission” rather than cured.

“It is encouraging to see a child going for such a long period of time without rebounding,” Fauci said. “But we don’t have the full answers to what this means yet.” ARIANA EUNJUNG CHA

‘My actions were proper’ NATIONAL SECURITY Jared Kush ner, P resident Trump’s senior adviser and son-in-law, spent two hours Monday answering questions from Senate investigators about his contacts with Russian officials, as the various probes into Russian interference during the 2016 election entered a new phase involving some of those persons closest to the president.

After his closed-door questioning, Kushner spoke briefly to reporters.

“Let me be very clear: I did not collude with Russia, nor do I know of anyone else in the campaign who did so,” Kushner said.

“I had no improper contacts. I have not relied on Russian funds for my businesses, and I have been fully transparent in providing all requested information.

“Since the first questions were raised in March, I have been consistent in saying I was eager to share whatever information I have with investigating bodies, and I have done so today.

“All of my actions were proper.’’

Legal experts expect all of Kushner’s answers to the committee will be shared with special counsel Robert Mueller, who is conducting a separate probe into any potential criminal activity surrounding Russian meddling and key figures in the Trump campaign.

Kushner dismissed outright the notion that Russia could be responsible for his father-in-law’s election victory.

“Donald Trump had a better message and ran a smarter campaign, and that is why he won. Suggesting otherwise ridicules those who voted for him,’’ Kushner said.

Kushner’s appearance Monday will be followed by further questioning today — again, behind

closed doors — before the House Intelligence Committee, which is also looking into election-year meddling by Russia.

U.S. intelligence agencies have concluded that the Russian government orchestrated a farreaching campaign to disrupt last year’s presidential campaign and influence the outcome in Trump’s favor. A major question for the current investigations is whether any Trump associates acted to help or advise the effort.

Kushner and the White House used the grilling to offer their most detailed rebuttal — in the form of an 11-page written statement — of the idea that

Kushner’s statement Here are takeaways from Jared Kushner’s 11-page statement. (TWP) ON 2016 MEETING WITH RUSSIAN LAWYER NATALIA VESELNITSKAYA:

“The meeting was a waste of our time. ... I actually emailed an assistant ... after I had been there for 10 or so minutes and wrote, ‘Can u pls call me on my cell? Need excuse to get out of meeting.’ “ ON CREATING A BACK CHANNEL TO KREMLIN: “I did not suggest a ‘secret back channel.’ … I did not raise the possibility of using the embassy or any other Russian facility for any purpose other than ... one possible conversation in the transition period.”

Federal judge allows Trump commission’s request for voter data from 50 states and D.C. to move forward

anyone in the campaign sought to coordinate with people acting on behalf of the Russian government.

Kushner’s statement detailed four meetings he had with Russian officials or nationals during the 2016 campaign and transition period, which he described as brief and unremarkable contacts in his role as the Trump campaign’s liaison to foreign governments.

Kushner wrote that his first meeting with a Russian official was in April 2016 at the Mayflower Hotel in Washington, where Trump delivered a major foreign policy speech. Kushner wrote that he was introduced to four ambassadors at the reception, including Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.

Kushner wrote: “The ambassadors ... expressed interest in creating a positive relationship should we win the election. Each exchange lasted less than a minute; some gave me their business cards and invited me to lunch at their embassies.

“I never took them up on any of these invitations and that was the extent of the interactions.”

Kushner denied having had any other contact with Kislyak during the campaign, disputing a report by Reuters that he had two phone calls with the ambassador.

“While I participated in thousands of calls during this period, I do not recall any such calls with the Russian Ambassador,” Kushner wrote.

“We have reviewed the phone records available to us and have not been able to identify any calls to any number we know to be associated with Ambassador Kislyak and I am highly skeptical these calls took place.”

Trump assails ‘beleaguered’ AG Sessions

DE VLIN BARRET T, PHILIP RUCKER AND

POLITICS President Trump took a new swipe at Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Monday, referring to him in a tweet as “beleaguered” and wondering why Sessions isn’t digging into Hillary Clinton’s alleged contacts with Russia.

Fuming about the ongoing investigations into Russian meddling in the 2016 election and questions as to whether his campaign colluded with foreign officials, Trump again focused his ire on Sessions, who was once one of his closest allies.

“So why aren’t the Committees and investigators, and of course our beleaguered A.G., looking into Crooked Hillarys crimes & Russia relations?”

The president’s tweet about Sessions comes less than a week after Trump, in a New York Times interview, criticized Sessions for recusing himself from the Russia probe, saying he should never have taken the job as attorney general.

Sessions recused himself from the investigation earlier this year after it was revealed that he had met with a top Russian diplomat last year.

Trump has seethed about Sessions’ decision for months, viewing it as disloyal — arguably the most grievous offense in the president’s mind — and resenting that the attorney general did not give the White House a proper heads-up about his decision.

Sessions said last week that he planned to stay in his post.

Democrats led by N.Y. Sen. Chuck Schumer unveil their “A Better Deal” rebranding campaign for the party Monday.

Democrats announce new platform for party Rebranding campaign promises U.S. workers will get ‘A Better Deal’ POLITICS Promising “A Better Deal” for American workers, Democratic Party leaders rolled out a new agenda with a populist pitch Monday as they sought to bounce back from their losses in November and look ahead to the 2018 midterms.

They left the Beltway for smalltown Berryville, Va., in an attempt to appeal to the workingclass voters whom Donald Trump appealed to last November and Democrats hope to win back.

“Too many Americans don’t know what we stand for,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer of New York. “Not

after today.”

The Democrats’ new platform has three overarching goals: raising wages, lowering costs for families, and giving working Americans better skills for the 21st-century economy.

“People need to know not only what we’re fighting against, they need to know what we’re fighting for,” said Sen. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland.

Attempting to bridge all parts of the party, Democrats invited moderate Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia and liberal Sen. Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts.

The event took place in the district of one of the GOP House members they hope to defeat next year, Barbara Comstock.

“While it’s early, there’s no doubt that this district and so many others are up for grabs in

the 2018 midterms,” said Rep. Ben Ray Lujan, who chairs the Democrats’ House campaign committee.

Detailed planks will be rolled out over time. On Monday, three were unveiled: Lowering prescription drug prices. Suggestions include a new agency that could investigate drug manufacturer price hikes and allow Medicare to negotiate directly for the best drug prices.

Cracking down on corporate monopolies. Democrats would enact new standards to limit large mergers, and create a new consumer competition advocate.

Creating millions more jobs.

The agenda includes proposals for expanding apprenticeships and providing a tax credit to employers to train and hire new workers. ERICA WERNER (AP)

Health department officials in New York are warning people about a potentially rabid and “unusually aggressive squirrel” that has recently bitten five people in Prospect Park in Brooklyn. The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene urged anyone who has been attacked by a squirrel since July 10 to seek treatment for rabies exposure and take victimized pets to a veterinarian. An announcement said that squirrels are rarely infected with rabies, but it is assumed that this animal is rabid. Warnings have been posted near the park entrance where the squirrel attacked.

Old bombs haunt N. Korea 64 years after the war, nation still removing explosives left by U.S.

NORTH KOREA In the 10 years he has been digging up ordnance from the Korean War, Maj. Jong Il Hyon has lost five colleagues to explosions.

He carries a lighter one gave him. He also bears a scar on his left cheek from a bomb disposal mission gone wrong.

Sixty-four years after it ended, the war is still giving up thousands of bombs, mortars and pieces of live ammunition. Virtually all of it is American.

“The experts say it will take 100 years to clean up all of the unexploded ordnance, but I think it will take much longer,” Jong said in an interview with The Associated Press in the outskirts of Hamhung, North Korea’s secondlargest city. Workers unearthed a rusted but still potentially deadly mortar round there in February.

Last October, 370 more were found in a nearby elementary school playground.

Jong said his bomb squad is one of nine in North Korea, one for each province. His unit handled 2,900 leftover explosives last year. This year they have already disposed of about 1,200.

The bomb squads respond to calls when ordnance is discovered, check construction sites before excavation work begins and educate people, especially school children, about the dangers.

Fortunately, there have been only a few injuries in the past few years. But Jong said an 11-yearold boy who found a bomb in May lost several fingers when it went off while he was playing with it.

North Korea is just one of many countries dealing with the explosive legacy of major wars. In

Asia alone, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos and even Japan have huge amounts of unexploded ordnance.

The three-year Korean War, which ended in what was supposed to be a temporary armistice on July 27, 1953, was one of the most brutal ever fought.

Virtually all of the 22 major cities in North Korea were severely damaged and hundreds of thousands of civilians killed by U.S. saturation bombing. North Korea is probably second only to Cambodia as the most heavily

bombed country in history.

The U.S. dropped 635,000 tons of bombs on Korea during the war, most of it in the North, including 32,500 tons of napalm.

Jong said many aging bombs have become even more dangerous as rust erodes their detonators, and that some could go off with the slightest movement.

“I’m sure that my daughter’s generation will also suffer from this problem,” he said. “I want the world to know that.”

SAN ANTONIO The driver of a tractor-trailer found packed with immigrants outside a Texas Wal-Mart was charged Monday in the deaths of 10 of his passengers and could face the death penalty.

In outlining their immigrantsmuggling case against James Matthew Bradley Jr., 60, federal prosecutors depicted the trailer as crammed with 90 people or more by some estimates, and so suffocatingly hot that one passenger said they took turns breathing through a hole and pounding on the walls.

Bradley appeared in federal court on charges of illegally transporting immigrants for financial gain, resulting in death.

The Clearwater, Fla., man was ordered held for another hearing on Thursday. He did not enter a plea. In court papers, he told authorities he didn’t realize anyone was inside his rig until he parked and got out.

Over the weekend, authorities discovered eight bodies inside the trailer, and two more victims died at the hospital. Nearly 20 others were hospitalized.

Bradley told investigators that the trailer had been sold and he was transporting it for his boss from Iowa to Brownsville, Texas.

One passenger told investigators that he was in a group of 24 people who had been smuggled across the Rio Grande and waited in a “stash house” in Laredo for 11 days before getting in the tractortrailer. (AP)

Holding steady

Stevenson’s quiet rise has gained speed NATIONALS When fans and analysts toss around names of the top prospects in the Nationals’ farm system, Andrew Stevenson is often left out. Fellow outfielder Victor Robles has all the hype, and pitcher Erick Fedde is knocking on the door of the majors, but Stevenson has quietly — albeit swiftly — been making his way through the minors for the past two years.

On Sunday, Stevenson made his MLB debut in a 6-2 win over the Diamondbacks in Arizona.

He replaced Wilmer Difo in left field midway through the game and went hitless in two at-bats.

Several injuries have depleted Washington’s outfield, leading the Nats to add Stevenson to the 40man roster just before the game. gam Chosen in the second round of the 2015 amateur draft,

Stevenson, now 23, joined the Nationals’ organization after three years at LSU. MLB.com ranks him as Washington’s fifth -best prospect behind Robles, Fedde, outfielder Juan Soto and shortstop Carter Kieboom.

Stevenson earned a spot on the MLB Pipeline All-Defense Team after the 2015 season and MLB.com gave him a fielding rating of 65 on a 20-80 scale, which is higher than both Robles and Soto.

“I’d say it’s not too big of a jump defensively going from college ball to pro ball because those balls come off pretty hot off those aluminum bats,” said Stevenson, who is listed as a center fielder.

Stevenson hits from the left side of the plate, not providing much in terms of power but contributing plenty of contact with above-average speed. He needed just a year and a half to make his way up to Class AA Harrisburg, where he hit .246 with 11 doubles and 12 stolen bases in 65 games a ffor the Senators in 2016.

(THE WASHINGTON POST)

3 Shortstop

Andrew Stevenson made his big league debut Sunday in a 6-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

The Nationals rewarded Stevenson’s production by sending him to the Arizona Fall League, and he returned the favor by leading the league with 30 hits.

After hitting .350 with a .429 on-base percentage in his first 20 games this year, he earned another promotion, to Class AAA Syracuse. Although his season numbers with the Chiefs don’t pop off the page — he hit .246 with nine steals in 73 games — Stevenson was heating up just before his MLB debut. In his last 41 games in Class AAA, he was hitting .294 with 26 runs scored and six stolen bases.

Stevenson could continue to come off the bench when the

2015 second-rounder isn’t a marquee name but is playing in the bigs

With the July 31 MLB trade deadline less than a week away, the bullpen remains the Nationals’ main focus.

Here are three areas in which the team is expected to stand pat.

Brewers begin a three-game series in Washington tonight (7:05, MASN2), but his time in the bigs could be short-lived because Ryan Raburn should miss only a week on bereavement leave.

If he’s sent back down, Stevenson would have another month to work on his mechanics before another potential call-up when rosters expand in September.

Back at the AAA level, the learning curve is still steep.

“You’ve got veteran guys bouncing between AAA and the big leagues, so you know the stuff that they’re capable of,” Stevenson said. “You’re just trying to relax and just play your game.”

Trea Turner will get an X-ray update on his broken right wrist this week and is expected to be back by midAugust. Wilmer Difo has hit .405 in his place this month.

With help from Trent, linebacker Robertson hopes to earn a job REDSKINS Linebacker Pete Robertson sensed that, at some point in his career, he would join the Redskins. In his hometown of Longview, Texas, it’s become a rite of passage into the NFL. Washington drafted Robertson’s god-brother, Malcolm Kelly, in 2008, then Robert Henson in

2009, and his cousin, five-time Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams, in 2010.

“I just had a feeling like, ‘Yeah, I’ve got to be the next one,’ ” Robertson said.

Robertson will have his cousin in his corner while seeking a spot on the 53-man roster once players report to training camp Wednesday in Richmond. More than anything, Robertson is just thankful to be around football again.

Robertson finished sixth in the country in sacks as a junior at Texas Tech a year before the accident. Instead of declaring for the draft, he stayed for his senior season so he could become the first person in his immediate family to graduate from college.

Following a rookie minicamp with the Seahawks that led to a contract, Robertson was among the first cuts during training camp last summer. He was pulling in about $400 a week at UPS when the Redskins brought him in.

STUDIES SHOW ...

Will work out for junk food

Falling behind the pack

NUTRITION Frozen margarita, anyone? A calorie-counting app will tell you a 12-ounce margarita contains between 650 and 700 calories; for a 150-pound person, that would equal about 60 minutes of spinning at a moderate effort.

Although it can be fun — and sometimes shocking — to match unhealthy foods with their “exercise cost,” does that information encourage healthier behavior?

When personal training clients come in for consultations, they cite weight loss as a top priority, says Cassia Denton, a personal training director at Balance Gym in Washington. Comparing calories in and calories out can work, but not when the equivalent to those Boardwalk fries is 14 hours of brisk walking. She tells them that at least 80 percent of weight loss is about nutrition and 20 percent is training. “As the tried-and-true saying goes, ‘Bodies are made in the kitchen.’”

And that 20 percent should not just be cardio, but strength,

too. The more lean body mass — muscle — you have, the higher your basic metabolic rate, Denton says. In other words, a 150-pound person with high fat will burn less than a 150-pound person with a higher ratio of lean body mass.

“The contribution to weight loss from exercise is minimal,” says Scott Kahan, a D.C. weight loss doctor and director of the National Center for Weight and Wellness, adding that he still sees value in exercise equivalents as a way to put food into perspective.

Many people don’t realize how much harder it is to burn calories than consume them, Denton says.

“People tend to overestimate the energy they expend when they exercise and underestimate the calories they consume.” Breaking down actual numbers can provide a reality check.

According to athleteinme .com’s Exercise Calorie Converter, an In-N-Out Burger meal at 1,180 calories is the exercise equivalent of 208 minutes of walking, 132 minutes of spinning,

116 minutes of swimming or 83 minutes of jogging.

“When you present it that way, it shocks people,” says Stan Reents, coach and chief executive of athleteinme.com. “And we know that if you want to change human behavior, you have to create an emotional response.”

But Claire Mysko, chief executive of the National Eating Disorders Association, says framing exercise in a compensatory way is risky business, especially for those vulnerable to eating disorders.

“Instead of looking at foods

as good or bad and exercise as a mechanism to burn calories, we try to encourage people to think about exercise as something that makes you feel good and food as something that gives you energy.”

Eating and exercising, Mysko says, should not be about numbers that potentially invite shame and punishment spirals. Food, along with giving you energy, is also about getting the right quantities of vitamins, minerals, protein, fat and other essential nutrients for good health.

And on the flip side, exercise is about so much more than countering calories consumed.

Says Kahan: “There are so many benefits to exercising, including mind, mood, joints, feeling good, sleeping better.”

Does all this mean we should never indulge? No. Denton says she generally eats very healthfully but might indulge more in social situations. And yes, sometimes that means enjoying a margarita with friends.

GABRIELLA BOSTON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A new report, which calls itself the largestever analysis of U.S. road race results, concludes that “American runners have never been slower.”

The report, based on more than 34 million individual race results from 1996 to 2016 and published on runrepeat. com, focuses on marathon results.

It finds that the average American marathon time has slowed from about 4 hours and 15 minutes to about 4 hours and 40 minutes over the 20-year period.

Some might cite the increase in recent years of female runners for the slowdown — women are, on average, 10 percent slower than men — but the report says that slowing men have contributed more to the decline (54 percent) than increased participation by women (46 percent).

Will you marry me? Like, ever??

Q. My boyfriend of seven years and I have broken up three times over his lack of motivation to get married. I go back to him because I want to spend my life with him. But he doesn’t get that the “piece of paper” is important to me. I know he has anxiety about the symbolism of commitment but if I give in on this, I’m setting up our relationship for me to always give in. AT A CROSSROADS I’m betting that after seven years you have a good idea whether “giving in” on this would lead to a screwed-up power dynamic. Is this a lone, unique issue? Or part of a larger pattern of stalemates?

He might not get your reasons, but do you get his?

Only some serious individual soul-searching and joint communication will figure out

once and for all whether your relationship, in and of itself, is more important than the question of marriage or no marriage. Whether it’s a pros/ cons battle, a compromise, a deadline or anything besides flipping a coin, there is no one right answer — but together you can find the solution that works as well as possible for both of you.

to the area, so we go out a lot. But she drinks a lot more than me, and I end up having to watch her to make sure she doesn’t do inappropriate things, fall down stairs, etc.

Usually she ends up crashing at my place because she is in no shape to take care of herself. I don’t think she has a serious alcohol problem, just immaturity, but how do I stop being her babysitter?

TIRED OF THIS

Well, my mental jury is still out on the “serious alcohol problem” question — especially given she does this every single time she goes out, despite its causing disruptions. Of course, I wonder how much you have actually conveyed to her that it’s causing these disruptions? I vote for a more all-encompassing discussion that addresses the fact that this is not a healthy pattern, but what can I say — as a therapist, that’s how I roll. If you insist on focusing only on the annoyance-as-it-relates-toyou part, then just start there.

“I don’t have as much fun when we go out these days, because I end up needing to take care of you a lot. It makes me not want to go out as much. Can we change this pattern?”

‘The Last Tycoon’ shows its age Late-night TV pro tip: Just tell a hilarious story TELEVISION There are many ways to go viral as a guest on late-night television: Have a rap battle with Jimmy Fallon. Help teach Conan O’Brien’s employee how to drive. Spill about your feud with Taylor Swift to James Corden.

Or, if you’re actress Tiffany Haddish, above, go on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and tell a funny story.

It’s a rare strategy these days. However, Haddish’s tale of taking Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith on a Groupon swamp tour in New Orleans is so hilarious that the clip made its way around Twitter and has racked up more than 700,000 YouTube views since July 19.

The viral clip of Haddish comes at the perfect time, as she was on Kimmel’s show last week to promote “Girls Trip,” which just raked in $30 million at the box office over the weekend — so her appearance might have inspired more people to snap up a ticket for opening weekend.

It’s best to just watch the clip, but Haddish’s anecdote involves a $20-a-day rental car, drunk tourists, the revelation that Smith can afford to buy an ecosystem and confirmation that celebrities like Pinkett Smith (Haddish’s co-star in “Girls Trip”) don’t use discount deal sites.

Haddish’s experience is a great lesson for celebrity guests on late-night. Just bring a story that showcases a great sense of comic timing — it might be oldschool, but it’s hard to go wrong.

STREAMING Hollywood will never break the habit of playing 1930s dress-up, but if you’re going to succumb to that temptation, it couldn’t hurt to return once more to F. Scott Fitzgerald’s unfinished but alluring 1941 novel about an internal power struggle at a movie studio.

The pilot episode of “The Last Tycoon,” from writer/director Billy Ray (“Shattered Glass”), has been available to Amazon subscribers since last summer.

Enough of them liked it for Amazon to push ahead with a full nine-episode season, which hits the streaming service Friday, even though “The Last Tycoon” has pretty much always felt like

STATEMENTS

Linkin Park pens note on the death of Bennington Linkin Park wrote on their website Monday that their “hearts are broken” over the death of frontman Chester Bennington, below, who committed suicide July 20.

Fitzgerald’s novel gets a handsome, if overdone, new series by Amazon

Matt Bomer and Lily Collins play chic Hollywoodites in “The Last Tycoon.”

a movie — the novel doesn’t even top 200 pages. (At best, it could be padded out to a miniseries.)

Even if you set all that aside (as well as Elia Kazan’s 1976 film version with Robert De Niro, which flopped), a stiff fussiness bogs down the first hour, which is

drenched in ’30s luxury, perfect light and gorgeous costumes, but not much else.

Matt Bomer (“White Collar”) plays Monroe Stahr, a rising executive at Brady-American Pictures and producer of a bigbudget biopic about his late wife,

Minna Davis (Jessica De Gouw), a legendary silent-film star who perished in a house fire. The production runs into trouble as studio boss Pat Brady (the reliably gaseous Kelsey Grammer) capitulates to censorship from an important foreign distributor — Nazi-controlled Germany. A livid Monroe forges ahead with other ideas and Pat feels threatened, especially when Monroe gives his daughter, Celia Brady (Lily Collins), a chance at a production deal.

Ray and his cast fling themselves wholeheartedly into the spirit and tone of “The Last Tycoon,” but the material still feels outdated, melodramatic and sometimes downright campy. Fitzgerald might be the first to admit that the story hasn’t exactly held up.

“Public school teachers spend their own money for school supplies in all 50 states.

It is a national outrage.”

“I kinda feel like all of America is Nicolas Cage in this photo. How did we get here? What is all this Russia s--- everywhere? Huh?”

@FILMDRUNK, tweeting last week when a Vox reporter

shared the Democrats’ slogan for their new economic agenda, “A Better Deal,” which was unveiled in Berryville, Va., on Monday. The full slogan is “A Better Deal: Better Jobs, Better Wages, Better Future.” People on the internet couldn’t miss the similarity to Papa John’s slogan, which is “Better Ingredients, Better Pizza.” A few GOP protesters even showed up at the rollout with empty pizza boxes as a metaphor for their opinion of Democrats’ promises.

@ERICGARLAND, reacting to the above

photo of Nicolas Cage in traditional Kazakh garb. The actor is in Kazakhstan for a film festival. The picture, with Cage’s palpable lack of enthusiasm, instantly became a meme as social media users Photoshopped Cage into famous photos and works of art.

T.J. Miller told Vulture why he publicly bashed his “Silicon Valley” boss after leaving the show this year. “People need a villain, and I’m occupying that space,” he said. “Nobody right now is publicly the Lindsay Lohan–train wreck–but–not–quite person. If I’d just said it was an honor to work on ‘Silicon Valley’ … I would have disappeared.

Instead, by being just a little authentic, I infected the news cycle.” (EXPRESS)

“Yeah, I did it. Why not? Look, I do a lot of s---. … I really do believe that words are one of the last forms of magic.”

Charlize Theron responded to a 2014 tabloid story in which actress Tia Mowry told In Touch that Theron was rude to her at a SoulCycle class. “She wasn’t very nice to me. I said, ‘Hi,’ and she actually rolled her eyes and said, ‘Oh, my God,’ ” Mowry said at the time. On Sunday’s “Watch What Happens Live,” Andy Cohen brought up the incident. “I’m really nice at SoulCycle, actually, because once my endorphins kick in I’m actually almost too friendly,” Theron said.

When asked if she had rolled her eyes at Mowry, she said, “I’m not an eye roller, but I would be like, ‘F--- off.’ ” (EXPRESS)
