Ethiopians welcome Abiy

D.C. MOMENT

Everyone gets stuck at Gate 35X

Ethiopians waited for Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed’s arrival Saturday at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.

“I want to hug him. He’s a hugger, I know, so I want to hug him,” said Kassa, a researcher at North Carolina State University.

When Kassa first came to the United States in 2000, he never thought he would go back to his homeland. But Abiy’s ascension has changed his mind, he said.

He plans to visit his home in

the Amhara region next year, and to bring his children, 12 and 14, with him.

Inside the conAbiy Ahmed vention center, the crowd spent the hours before Abiy’s arrival dancing, waving Ethiopian and Eritrean flags, and engaging in ululation, called ililta. Religious leaders began the rally with prayers. D.C. Mayor Muriel E. Bowser also addressed the crowd, declaring July 28 “Ethiopia Day.”

Abiy, wearing a white, glossy suit with gold accents, spoke about unity. He called on members of the diaspora to invest in Ethiopia and to return home.

Saba Gizau, a 58-year-old grandmother from Maryland, said that after two decades away from Ethiopia, she is ready to go back. “He invited us to come back to Ethiopia and help the country,” she said after Abiy’s speech, her eyes welling with tears. “He invited us, and I will be there.” REBECCA TAN AND

The father of two camped outside the Walter E. Washington Convention Center starting at midnight Friday, watching as Ethiopians from as far as Colorado and Texas arrived. By 7 a.m.

Saturday, thousands had gathered in the streets, honking car horns and sharing food. Most wore Tshirts emblazoned with the face of their homeland’s newly minted prime minister, Abiy Ahmed.

In the nearly four months since he took office, the 41-year-old politician has introduced sweeping changes to Ethiopia, lifting a state of emergency, brokering peace with neighboring Eritrea and releasing hundreds of political prisoners. These dramatic steps toward liberalization have sparked “Abiy-mania” within the Ethiopian diaspora in the United States, which, for decades, stood among the fiercest critics of the ruling party’s autocratic regime.

Md. Democrats tepid on endorsing Jealous

VIRGINIA

Environmentalists get big win in pipeline case

Some party leaders fear ex-NAACP leader leans too far to the left CHESAPEAKE HEALTH

EPA says Bay cleanup effort still on track KATHERINE FREY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

MARYLAND Maryland gubernatorial nominee Ben Jealous needs all the help he can get to unseat incumbent Gov. Larry Hogan, R, but he’s facing resistance from some fellow Democrats uneasy with his left-wing platform.

Montgomery County Executive Isiah Leggett is declining to endorse Jealous for now because of concerns that Jealous’ positions on taxes, school funding and Amazon’s second headquarters would penalize Leggett’s constituents in the state’s most populous jurisdiction.

Long-serving Senate President Thomas V. Mike Miller Jr., DCalvert, an influential moderate, offered only tepid backing for Jealous while praising Hogan for “governing from the middle.”

The wariness about Jealous illustrates a fissure between the party’s establishment wing and the restive, left-leaning faction that delivered Jealous’ triumph in the June 26 primary.

U.S. Sen. Ben Cardin, asked if Jealous was too far to the left, said, “I’m very comfortable with his vision for Maryland. Do I agree with all of [his positions]? No.” Jealous, a former NAACP president seeking office for the first time, easily beat five main

Some of Maryland’s moderate Democrats seem hesitant to endorse Ben Jealous, who is campaigning on Medicare for all and debt-free college.

rivals in the primary, buoyed by support from unions and local and national progressive politicians and groups.

Now some party leaders are urging Jealous to soften his stances to improve his chances of beating Hogan, who enjoys high ratings in polls. In addition to supporting Medicare for all, Jealous favors debt-free college, a 29 percent increase in teachers’ pay, shrinking the prison population and legalizing marijuana.

“Everybody in the Democratic establishment is concerned that if he doesn’t moderate himself, he has no chance against Hogan,”

said a Democratic strategist, who spoke on the condition of anonymity.

Jealous is scheduled to meet today with top state Democratic elected officials to discuss campaign strategy.

Kevin Harris, a senior adviser to Jealous, said such conversations were normal as the party unites after a robust primary.

“We understand that the party is not monolithic,” Harris said. “It doesn’t mean that those disagreements are so large that ultimately we won’t be a unified party.” ROBERT McCARTNEY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Efforts to clean up the Chesapeake Bay are mostly on track, but challenges remain as farm manure and city stormwater continue to flow into the nation’s largest estuary, the EPA said Friday. Last year marked a halfway point toward the implementation of the federally mandated “pollution diet” for the Chesapeake Bay by 2025.

Cosmo Servidio, a regional administrator for the EPA, said in a statement that “considerable progress” has been made. And he noted the record comeback of the bay’s underwater grasses, among other positive signs of higher water quality.

But nitrogen pollution is still too high. And much of it is coming from manure and stormwater runoff. (AP)

Baltimore police search for suspect who shot at officer Saturday night

An appeals court on Friday sided with environmentalists who challenged the decision by federal agencies to allow construction of a 300-mile natural gas pipeline on a swath of national forest.

The unanimous ruling by a three-judge panel cancels permits issued by the Bureau of Land Management and the U.S. Forest Service allowing the Mountain Valley Pipeline to cut through the Jefferson National Forest.

The ruling accuses the agencies of ignoring environmental regulations in approving the project. A spokeswoman for the pipeline project said the ruling only affects about 1 percent of the project route. (AP) VIRGINIA

local Pope accepts move by former D.C. archbishop ahead of investigation THE DISTRICT In a move seen as unprecedented, Pope Francis has effectively stripped U.S. prelate Theodore McCarrick of his cardinal’s title following allegations of sexual abuse, including one involving an 11-year-old boy. Francis on Saturday ordered McCarrick to remain in seclusion, and in prayer, until a church trial considers further sanctions.

Breaking with past practice, Francis acted swiftly on the resignation offered by the emeritus archbishop of D.C., even before the accusations are investigated by church officials. McCarrick was previously one of the highest, most visible Catholic church officials in the United States and was heavily involved in the church’s years-long response to allegations of priestly abuse.

Francis received McCarrick’s letter offering to resign from the College of Cardinals on Friday evening, after a spate of allegations that the 88-year-old prelate

The case posed a test of the pontiff’s recently declared resolve to battle what he called a “culture of cover-up” of similar abuses in the Catholic church’s hierarchy.

McCarrick had already been removed from public ministry since June 20, pending a full investigation into allegations that he fondled a teenager more than 40 years ago in New York City.

Sleepless near Rhode Island

The shutdown of Metro’s Rhode Island Avenue station has meant shuttle bus service for Red Line riders — and a lot of noise for neighbors.

still going on.

That’s when Robertson hit her limit. She recorded a video of the metallic rattling sound disturbing the dark still of the night and tweeted it to Metro: “This is my life for the next 45 days … do noise ordinances not apply to the Metro?!”

Metro didn’t respond.

Robertson, 24, who works as a House staffer, isn’t a Metro hater — or at least she wasn’t. She chose her apartment at Rhode Island Row because she wanted to be right near the station.

“Unfortunately, it’s becoming a regret of mine,” she lamented.

She also isn’t the type who moves to the city and complains

SARA ROBERTSON

METRORAIL Even on the worst commutes, when your Metro car is steaming and the train keeps inching along, there’s some solace in knowing that eventually you’ll get out.

There might be a broken escalator — one last flipping of the bird before freedom — but soon you’ll be home and away from Metro.

Unless you’re Sara Robertson, or one of her neighbors on Rhode Island Avenue, for whom there is no escape from Metro these days.

Robertson lives across the street from the Rhode Island Avenue station, which, along with the Brookland station, was shut down July 21 for a 45-day stretch of repairs.

It’s been an ordeal for commuters who have been forced to make multiple transfers to get around a closed section of the Red Line, sometimes doubling the length of their commutes.

Metro, oft-criticized for not working efficiently and letting the system deteriorate, says it’s trying to get the work done as quickly as possible by working around the clock.

If you live across the street, that means the noise is also going on around the clock.

The first night of the work, Robertson said, the jackhammering went on until at least 2:30 a.m.

It went on the whole next day too. At 4:30 a.m. Monday, it was

about the noise. She knew the District wasn’t going to be as quiet as Wixom, Mich., the former auto manufacturing town

of about 13,000 that she left last November.

“But I have to sleep,” she said.

Generally, D.C.’s noise ordinance bars construction without special permission except between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Mondays through Saturdays. But Metro, like public utilities, is exempt, a spokesman for the city Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs said.

By last Monday night, the noise seemed to quiet, winding down at about 11 p.m., Robertson said. But it was only a temporary respite.

Metro, in response to an inquiry on Thursday, said it feels badly about keeping Robertson up. But there was a but. “[T]he most important goal must be to get this project done on the fastest possible timeline because, for every resident who can hear construction activity, there are hundreds of riders who are enduring bus shuttles and longer commutes,” Metro said in a statement.

As of Thursday, demolition was halfway done, but three more days of demolition lay ahead. Metro said it’s trying to do the loudest work, like the jackhammering, during the day, but it can’t guarantee that rains like we had last week won’t force workers to jackhammer through the night to stay on schedule.

“That actually makes me mad to the point where I am shaking,” Robertson said. “It’s not comforting to know that they aren’t defending my right to sleep.”

Metro speeds 7000-series safety upgrades METRORAIL Metro is speeding up work on safety improvements in its fleet of 7000-series train cars after federal regulators threatened to withhold millions in funding, according to a letter Metro management sent to the Federal Transit Administration on Friday.

But it is unclear whether the new upgrade timetable — the work is to begin next month and be completed by May 2019 — will be enough to satisfy the FTA. The agency has warned that if Metro does not retrofit cars with blindfriendly safety guards between cars by the end of December, 25 percent of the system’s federal funding could be withheld.

In recent months, Metro has also worried that the FTA could force it to stop using the new trains if the more than 500 cars covered by the order aren’t upgraded by Dec. 31. But FTA officials clarified last week that they do not intend to pull the trains from service if Metro doesn’t meet the deadline.

The trains’ manufacturer, Kawasaki, has agreed to expedite the retrofitting. But Metro says there are limits to how quickly Kawasaki can work. And in a letter from Kawasaki to Metro, forwarded to the FTA, the manufacturer explained the 10-month timeline. “The bracket assembly has a long lead time,” wrote the program manager for the 7000 series, and “the polishing process for painting takes a long time.” MARTINE POWERS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

New dolphin hybrid found off Hawaii MATTHEW HINTON (THE ADVOCATE VIA AP)

NEW ORLEANS Two armed individuals walked up to a crowd gathered Saturday evening outside a strip mall in New Orleans and opened fire, killing three people and wounding seven more, the police chief said.

The shooting happened on a busy thoroughfare about 3 miles from the French Quarter, police said.

Police chief Michael Harrison said the two suspects believed to be wearing hoodies had a rifle and a handgun. He said they appeared to have fired indiscriminately into the crowd, striking 10 people.

Before fleeing, they took time to stand over one person.

“We believe that they actually stood over one of the individuals and fired multiple rounds and then after that fled,” Harrison said.

Police responding to the shooting found three victims — two men and one woman — who were pronounced dead at the scene.

Seven other victims — five men and two women — were taken to two separate hospitals. Four of them were driven in private vehicles, and three were transported by ambulance.

Harrison said one underwent surgery and was in critical condition; the other six were in various

conditions but none were considered life-threatening.

Harrison spoke with family members and friends at the scene of the “volatile and tense situation.” He called on people to come forward and help police find the killers and also asked people not to take matters into their own hands.

“This was an extremely tragic incident. A lot of people were out here tonight. A lot of people, we know, saw what happened, heard what happened. And we need more than anything for people to come forward to help

the NOPD right now solve this case,” Harrison said.

He said police do not know whether it was gang-related.

Lawrence Russo was at nearby gas station when he heard what he at first thought were firecrackers. He told NOLA.com/The Times-Picayune that he heard a total of 13 to 16 shots fired.

“They never stop killing each other,” he said, shaking his head as he spoke.

Near the scene of the shooting, beyond the police tape, people could be seen crying and hugging one another. (AP)

A new study confirms that scientists found a never-before-seen hybrid dolphin off the coast of Kauai, Hawaii, last year, CBS News reported. The sea animal is the result of a melon-headed dolphin and a rough-toothed dolphin mating. The marine researchers from the Cascadia Research Collective confirmed the hybrid by getting a sample from the animal and testing its DNA. Researchers also noted that melon-headed dolphins are rarely found in the area, making the hybrid even more interesting.

Some news outlets on Sunday incorrectly labeled the creature a dolphinwhale hybrid because the melon-headed dolphin is also called a melon-headed whale, despite being from the dolphin family, The Huffington Post reported.

President Trump denied Friday on Twitter that he knew in advance about a June 2016 Trump Tower meeting between a Russian lawyer and his eldest son, Donald Trump Jr. “I did NOT know of the meeting with my son,” Trump declared. He was reacting to a report from CNN Thursday that his former attorney, Michael Cohen, alleges Trump knew about the meeting and approved it.

A hot, dangerous summer WEATHER In the town of Sodankyla, Finland, the thermometer on July 17 registered a record-breaking 90 degrees, a remarkable figure given that Sodankyla is 59 miles north of the Arctic Circle, in a region known for winter snowmobiling and an abundance of reindeer.

This is a hot, strange and dangerous summer across the planet.

Greece is in mourning after scorching heat and high winds fueled wildfires that have killed more than 90 people.

Japan recorded its highest temperature in history, 106 degrees, in a heat wave that killed 65 people in a week and hospitalized 22,000, shortly after catastrophic flooding killed 200.

Ouargla, Algeria, hit 124 degrees on July 5, a likely record for the continent of Africa. And the 109-degree reading in Quriyat, Oman, on June 28 amazed meteorologists because that wasn’t the day’s high temperature — that was the low. It was the hottest low temperature ever recorded on Earth.

In the U.S., 35 weather stations in the past month have set new marks for warm overnight temperatures. Southern California has had record heat and widespread power outages. In Yosemite Valley, which is imperiled by wildfires, park rangers have told everyone to flee.

The brutal weather has been supercharged by human-induced climate change, scientists say.

Climate models for three decades have predicted exactly what the world is seeing this summer. And they predict that it will get hotter — and that what is a record today could someday be the norm.

“The old records belong to a world that no longer exists,” said Martin Hoerling, a research meteorologist at the National Oceanic

Scientists say fires and extreme weather are being fueled by climate change, just as research predicted

Calif. wildfires force 50,000 people to evacuate California fire officials say wildfires around the state have forced roughly 50,000 people from their homes. California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection spokeswoman Lynne Tolmachoff said Sunday that 12,000 firefighters were battling 17 significant fires in California. A fire in the Redding area about 230 miles north of San Francisco has claimed six lives and destroyed more than 500 buildings while charring 139 square miles.

and Atmospheric Administration.

It’s not just heat. A warming world is prone to multiple types of extreme weather — heavier downpours, stronger hurricanes, longer droughts.

“You see roads melting, airplanes not being able to take off, there’s not enough water,” said Katharine Hayhoe, director of the Climate Science Center at Texas Tech University. “Climate change hits us at our Achilles’ heel. In the Southwest, it’s water availability. On the Gulf Coast,

it’s hurricanes. In the East, it’s flooding. It’s exacerbating the risks we already face today.”

Climate change is making the world warmer because of the buildup of heat-trapping gases from the burning of fossil fuels like coal and oil and other human activities. And experts say the jet stream — which dictates weather in the Northern Hemisphere — is again behaving strangely.

“An unusually sharply kinked jet stream has been stuck in place for weeks now,” said Jeff

Death toll from Greek wildfire reaches 91; 25 still missing six days after blaze

Masters, director of the commercial weather service Weather Underground. He said that has caused the heat to stay in place over three areas where the kinks are: Europe, Japan and the western United States.

Gone are the days when scientists drew a bright line dividing weather and climate. Now, researchers can examine a weather event and estimate how much climate change had to do with causing or exacerbating it.

Last year, when Hurricane

Harvey broke the record for how much rain could fall from a single storm, researchers knew climate change had been a factor.

Months later, scientists presented findings that Harvey dumped at least 15 percent more rain in Houston than it would have without global warming.

Theory, meet reality: When the atmosphere is warmer, it can hold more moisture. Climate change does not cause hurricanes to spin up or thunderstorms to develop, but it can be an intensifier.

The heat waves have hit hard where people don’t expect them — the Netherlands, Sweden, Britain, Ireland and Canada.

This is Britain’s driest summer since modern records began in 1961. Reservoirs are declining rapidly, and water restrictions are in effect.

A study by European scientists Friday found that the ongoing European heat wave is twice as likely because of human-caused global warming, though those conclusions have not yet been confirmed by outside scientists.

The World Weather Attribution team said it compared three-day heat measurements and forecasts for the Netherlands, Denmark and Ireland with historical records going back to the early 1900s.

“We now have very strong evidence that global warming has already put a thumb on the scales, upping the odds of extremes like severe heat and heavy rainfall,” Stanford University climate scientist Noah Diffenbaugh said. “We find that global warming has increased the odds of record-setting hot events over more than 80 percent of the planet, and has increased the odds of record-setting wet events at around half of the planet.” (THE WASHINGTON POST/AP)

President steps up his attack, saying reporters endanger ‘lives of many’

Palestinian teen who slapped Israeli soldiers gets hero’s welcome

New York Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger met with President Trump at the White House earlier this month.

who publicly detailed his July 20 meeting at the White House with the president.

Trump first characterized their discussion as “a very good and interesting meeting,” writing in a Sunday morning tweet that he and Sulzberger “spent much time talking about the vast amounts of Fake News being put out by the media & how that Fake News has morphed into phrase, ‘Enemy of the People.’ ” Sulzberger then took issue with Trump’s interpretation of their meeting. The president had invited the publisher, and he was accompanied at the White House

by James Bennet, the Times’ editorial page editor, according

to a Times spokeswoman. The spokeswoman said that White House aides asked that the meeting remain “off the record,” in keeping with past practice for such meetings, but that the president put it “on the record” with his Sunday tweet.

Sulzberger said in his statement, based on his and Bennet’s notes, that he agreed to the meeting with Trump “to raise concerns about the president’s deeply troubling anti-press rhetoric.”

“I told the president directly that I thought that his language was not just divisive but increasingly dangerous,” Sulzberger said. “I told him that although the phrase ‘fake news’ is untrue

I warned that this inflammatory language is contributing to a rise in threats against journalists and will lead to violence.”

He continued: “I … stressed that this is particularly true abroad, where the president’s rhetoric is being used by some regimes to justify sweeping crackdowns on journalists. I warned that it was putting lives at risk, that it was undermining the democratic ideals of our nation, and that it was eroding one of our country’s greatest exports: a commitment to free speech and a free press.”

PHILIP RUCKER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

New VA chief to shake up agency’s staff POLITICS In one of his first acts as President Trump’s Veterans Affairs secretary, Robert Wilkie intends to reassign several high-ranking political appointees at the center of the agency’s ongoing morale crisis and staffing exodus, according to three people familiar with his plans.

Wilkie, who will be sworn in today, wants to form his own leadership team, these people say, and to ease lawmakers’ continued concern that the VA, historically a nonpartisan corner of the government, has become highly politicized. He discussed the proposed personnel moves with Trump in recent days, said an official close to the White House.

Announcements could come as soon as this week, pending approval from the White House Personnel Office.

The changes would sideline much of VA’s interim leadership team under acting Secretary Peter O’Rourke, who drew unfavorable reviews from lawmakers in both political parties following a dispute with the agency’s inspector general and a report that highlighted O’Rourke’s efforts to purge civil servants whom he deemed unsupportive of Trump’s agenda.

O’Rourke, a former Trump campaign worker, will be reassigned to a less visible role overseeing a new office focused on improving VA operations, according to people familiar with Wilkie’s plans. LISA REIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

At a news conference, Tamimi said “resistance continues until the occupation is removed,” but refrained from saying she would slap soldiers again.

Lawyer: Claim that Spicer used racial slur is false

AP/ ROSIDIN

POLITICS President Trump escalated his feud with the news media on Sunday, accusing journalists of being unpatriotic and endangering lives after the publisher of The New York Times disclosed that he had warned Trump recently that his inflammatory rhetoric about the media could lead to violence.

Trump — who has made “fake news” a rallying cry and labeled journalists the “enemy of the people” — fired off a Twitter tirade Sunday afternoon from his New Jersey golf estate, blasting the media for revealing internal government deliberations and for what he considers unfairly negative coverage of his presidency.

“When the media — driven insane by their Trump Derangement Syndrome — reveals internal deliberations of our government, it truly puts the lives of many, not just journalists, at risk!

Very unpatriotic!” Trump wrote.

The president went on to say, “I will not allow our great country to be sold out by anti-Trump haters in the dying newspaper industry,” singling out The Times and The Washington Post for writing “bad stories even on very positive achievements.”

Trump seems to have been responding to the lengthy statement issued earlier Sunday by Times publisher A.G. Sulzberger,

indicted by an Israeli military court after a video of the curlyhaired teen kicking and slapping two armed Israeli soldiers in protective gear went viral on Facebook. Tamimi, then 16, was frustrated after having just learned that Israeli troops seriously wounded a 15-year-old cousin, shooting him in the head from close range with a rubber bullet during nearby stone-throwing clashes. Her mother was arrested shortly after she posted the footage on social media.

Tamimi, 17, soon became a potent symbol of the Palestinian protest movement, her image gracing murals and posters around the globe.

TOUR DE FRANCE

Thomas captures first crown

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

On the first day of Redskins training camp last week, Josh Doctson was running straight ahead and still one stride away from breaking inside when quarterback Alex Smith released the pass into a void. Doctson appeared in the empty space to grab the ball for a first down.

That play never happened last year.

Kirk Cousins didn’t always trust Doctson — or most receivers — enough to throw them open. Cousins, who is in Vikings training camp now, was reluctant to risk interceptions, especially while he was playing for a new contract. Anything that wasn’t a high-percentage throw was rarely tried.

In his first few practices in Richmond, Smith has often given his receivers a chance to make plays. And when there have been breakdowns, he’s sought them out after drills to discuss any miscommunication. That makes a big

difference, Doctson said.

“I think [Smith will] come to me or he’ll come to the other receivers and he’ll talk about what he saw and what he liked about that,” Doctson said. “I think that’s a little different for me and I like it.”

So far, Smith has showed amazing chemistry with his new receivers. He was loving Paul Richardson in the red zone during Sunday’s practice.

He often found former 49ers teammate Vernon Davis 20 yards downfield, and Jamison Crowder has become a favorite target for short completions.

But if this offense is going to reach its potential, Doctson must deliver a breakthrough season. The 2016 first-round pick was hobbled by injuries his rookie year. While he rebounded and played in all 16 games last season, Doctson made just 35 receptions.

Where was the leaping playmaker from Texas Christian whose acrobatic receptions over defenders were all over YouTube? Well, Doctson turned back the clock last

JONATHAN NEWTON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Building rapport: Smith’s trust gives Doctson swagger

Third-year pro Josh Doctson, left, is liking how quarterback Alex Smith communicates with receivers and is giving him chances to make plays.

week, when Smith threw a rainbow to him in the corner of the end zone that even coach Jay Gruden joked was “lucky.”

“We just haven’t gotten many opportunities to [Doctson] for whatever reason, you know,” Gruden said, “so it’s not totally his fault that he hasn’t been as productive as people anticipate.”

Gruden seems determined to make Doctson the team’s top receiver. But Gruden said the proof won’t simply come through numbers.

“I think people are looking for the stats to fly of the

charts,” Gruden said. “But you know around here, the way we spread the ball around … it’s going to be hard for one guy to have a fantasy football superstar year. I think in the red zone is where he’s is going to be most dangerous … and some tight window throws on third down.”

Early on in camp, Doctson is validating that trust and finding success with his new quarterback.

Geraint Thomas won his first Tour de France title on Sunday, concluding his transformation from a support rider into a champion of cycling’s biggest race. The Welsh rider with Team Sky successfully defended his lead of 1 minute, 51 seconds over second-placed Tom Dumoulin in the mostly ceremonial final stage.

Thomas, 32, shared glasses of Champagne with teammates during the casual ride into Paris before buckling down to keep up with the other leaders on the cobblestones of the Champs-Elysees.

“Normally that stage is really hard,” Thomas said, “but today I just seemed to float around it. I had goose bumps going around there.” (AP)

TOP PICK GOES DOWN

Payne out 2-3 weeks with ankle injury

Nose tackle Daron Payne, the Redskins’ first-round pick this year, is expected to miss two to three weeks after his ankle was stepped on Friday at training camp in Richmond. Coach Jay Gruden said Payne, who was working with the No. 1 defense, is in a walking boot but will be OK long term. “He’s in great shape, so it’s not a big deal,” Gruden said. “He’s already very smart, knows the defense.” (THE WASHINGTON POST)

ATP Ranking: No. 838

WTA Ranking: No. 2

WTA Ranking: No. 3

The 21-year-old from Germany is competing in Washington for the fourth time in as many years, but for the first time as the defending champion.

Zverev is the top seed in D.C. this year. He’s been promoted as part of ATP’s #NextGen campaign, but his six titles — including three Masters Series events — since May 2017 suggest he’s already arrived. Both of his titles this year came on clay.

A man from the United States hasn’t won the Citi Open since Andy Roddick in 2007. Isner, the current highest-ranked American, is a three-time finalist and may be poised to end the drought. The 33-yearold advanced to the semifinals at Wimbledon — his best result at a major — and lost to Kevin Johnson. On Sunday, Isner defeated Ryan Harrison 5-7, 6-3, 6-4 to win the Atlanta Open.

The three-time major champion from Great Britain spent 41 weeks atop the rankings in 2017.

A hip ailment, though, sidelined him for much of the past 12 months as his ranking plummeted.

Murray has played three matches since last July.

The Citi Open, though, is the start of what Murray hopes will be a full-time comeback. Murray faces 77th-ranked Mackenzie McDonald (USA) today.

She joins Sloane Stephens and Svetlana Kuznetsova as former major champions in the women’s draw, along with Murray and Stan Wawrinka in the men’s draw. Wozniacki, 28, won the Australian Open in January, when she claimed the No. 1 ranking for five weeks.

She is the top seed in D.C., where the Dane is making her second appearance and will face a qualifier in the first round.

The Floridian has participated in the Citi Open every year since it introduced the women’s draw in 2011. In 2015, she earned her first career WTA title in the District.

Stephens returns this year as a Grand Slam champion after winning the U.S. Open last September. The 25-year-old also reached the French Open final in June to reach a career-high No. 3 ranking but lost in the first round at Wimbledon.

Washington (52-53) trails Philadelphia by six games in the NL East. Urena (3-10) allowed one hit over six scoreless innings, earning his first win at home this year after going 0-8 in 13 starts.

Wilson, 24, had career highs with 14 goals, 21 assists and 15:59 average ice time during the regular season, when he made $2.25 million.

MUST-SEE THIS WEEK

1 ‘Rest in Power: The Trayvon Martin Story’ 10 p.m. today on Paramount Network

JAY-Z executive produced this six-part documentary series about Trayvon Martin, whose 2012 death marked the early stages of the Black Lives Matter movement.

HULU

Andre Holland and Sissy Spacek get frightened as they realize they’re in a Stephen King story.

Middling monstrosity The Stephen King-inspired thriller ‘Castle Rock’ is better in theory than execution STREAMING What you’re looking for in “Castle Rock” may not be what “Castle Rock” is prepared to offer.

The Hulu series, inspired by Stephen King’s recurring fixation on the mysterious goings-on in a fictional Maine town, has everything except a clear purpose.

If it’s meant to frighten, it’s not very good at that. If it’s meant to ruminate on the nature of evil, then that message never gets through. If it’s meant to creep you out, then it barely registers.

And if it’s meant to be this summer’s 5,000-piece jigsaw puzzle discovered in a cobwebby corner of a lake cabin — well, there’s no law that compels you to spread it out and solve it, even if J.J. Abrams is billed as executive

producer (with Sam Shaw and Dustin Thomason as creators).

“Castle Rock” is great at one thing, though: It provides the latest opportunity to marvel at the surfeit of promising, expensively produced, darkly themed shows that turn out to be not nearly as interesting as the concept first sounded. Mediocrity is once again the real monster here.

The show opens with the suicide of Dale Lacy (Terry O’Quinn), the longtime warden of Shawshank state prison. Soon after, a conscientious corrections officer discovers a young man (Bill Skarsgard) trapped in a cage in an underground cellblock that’s been abandoned for years. The prison has no record of the guy, and it soon becomes

$61.5M

Meet the townsfolk “Castle Rock” features a surprising number of veteran film and TV actors in what seem to be bit parts: Scott Glenn is the former town deputy who rescued Andre Holland’s Henry; Melanie Lynskey is Molly Strand, the girl next door who uses opioids to quell her empathetic superpowers; and Frances Conroy is the late warden’s blind widow. H.S.

apparent that Warden Lacy may have been keeping him there for some possibly perverse reason.

The prisoner then whispers a name: Henry Deaver (Andre Holland), a Texas death-row defense lawyer who famously went missing in Castle Rock as a child.

Henry returns to represent the nameless client, and his reacquaintance with the crabby, creepy people of Castle Rock (including Sissy Spacek as his mother) moves at a dismal pace while the show tries to decide whether it’s a legal drama or a mystery thriller or something more otherworldly.

The first three episodes, which premiered in one chunk this past Wednesday (a new episode will be released each week), spend too much time laying groundwork, meting out clues and King references at a sluggish pace.

So why is this show here? Sometimes the answer is frightfully simple: Because someone pitched it, and then someone bought it.

The domestic box office take for “Mission: Impossible — Fallout” this past weekend, according to studio estimates Sunday. The Tom Cruise action thriller easily took the No. 1 spot, topping “Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again,” which fell 57 percent in its second weekend to earn $15 million. Denzel Washington’s “The Equalizer 2” slid to third with $14 million in its second weekend, and “Hotel Transylvania 3: Summer Vacation” took fourth with $12.3 million.

6 women have accused the CBS chief executive of sexual harassment #METOO It’s hard to imagine a TV executive and a network more intertwined than Leslie Moonves and CBS. He transformed CBS over the past two decades, building it into a ratings powerhouse that has been the No. 1 network in total viewers for 10 consecutive years.

But the CBS Corp. chief executive and chairman has come under the spotlight after the network’s board of directors said Friday it would investigate allegations of misconduct against him. That announcement came

ahead of reports that journalist Ronan Farrow was about to publish a piece in The New Yorker that detailed the accusations.

The story came out later Friday. In it, six women accused Moonves of sexual harassment and intimidation.

“Six women who had professional dealings with him told me that, between the nineteen-eighties and the late aughts, Moonves sexually harassed them,” Farrow wrote. The allegations also included “forcible touching or kissing during business meetings,” along with physical intimidation and threats. The women accusing Moonves of misconduct include “Six Feet Under” actress Illeana Douglas.

current and former CBS employees, the story also details allegations that, under Moonves’ watch, “men at CBS News who were accused of sexual misconduct

were promoted” — although it isn’t clear whether Moonves knew about those allegations.

“I recognize that there were times decades ago when I may have made some women uncomfortable by making advances,” Moonves said in a statement to The New Yorker. “Those were mistakes, and I regret them immensely. But … I have never misused my position to harm or hinder anyone’s career.”

The CBS board said in a statement: “All allegations of personal misconduct are to be taken seriously. The Independent Directors of CBS have committed to investigating claims that violate the company’s clear policies in that regard.” ELAHE IZADI AND

“ ‘[You]’ ‘Make me feel like a natural woman.’ ” @ALAN_MCGUINNESS, tweeting at Rudy

Giuliani after President Trump’s lawyer tweeted just the word “You” at 8:07 a.m. Sunday morning. Giuliani’s singleword tweet soon became a meme as people retweeted it with song lyrics. @kashanacauley referenced Drake’s song “Hotline Bling,” tweeting: “Ever since I left the city.” Giuliani appeared on Sunday morning talk shows attacking Trump’s former personal lawyer Michael Cohen, but he didn’t tweet a follow-up to what he meant by “You.”

“Movie Pass is the family that just left candy in a bowl on their porch on Halloween that just said ‘Please take one!’ and are horrified when it’s empty 30 seconds later.” @HANSOLEAUX, joking about MoviePass’ financial issues after

the movie ticket subscription service took out an emergency loan of $6 million on Friday. The Washington Post reported that customers experienced gaps in service last week because MoviePass was not able to pay theaters for tickets. The company’s days may be numbered. “I’m seeing a movie a day until Moviepass runs out of money,” @BrysonGrau tweeted.

“Thank you for sending us some Virgin America love.

Definitely been an emotional past few days.” @MIKEYTBURRY, a Virgin America flight attendant who is famous for his dancing, tweeting after a passenger on a recent flight, @hunterwalk, posted a video of him dancing the safety presentation.

People who had flown with him before shared the love. “[Thank you] Mikey for making our flights awesome,” @hunterwalk tweeted. @ZibbyZ tweeted: “I love him. Virgin’s absence will be sorely felt.” Virgin America is merging with Alaska Airlines.

“The last thing the food world needs right now is Gordon Ramsay going to foreign countries showing locals he can cook their cuisines better than they can.” @MREDDIEHUANG, chef and author

Eddie Huang, calling out National Geographic after the network announced a food exploration show with Gordon Ramsay called “Uncharted.” A press release said the show will feature competition, “testing Ramsay against the locals, pitting his own interpretations of regional dishes against the tried-and-true classics.”

Cardi B finds someone cuter than Bruno Cardi B has dropped out of her tour with Bruno Mars after tweeting that she’s not ready to leave her newborn daughter.

The rapper gave birth to Kulture Kiari Cephus earlier this month and was due to start the tour opening for Mars in September, but she wrote Thursday that she has not yet recovered mentally and physically.

“I think I underestimated this whole mommy thing,” Cardi B wrote. (AP)

Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra are engaged after two months of dating, according to People.

Jonas, 25, reportedly proposed July 18 — Chopra’s 36th birthday — while the couple were in London, having closed down a Tiffany store to buy an engagement ring. “His friends and family have never seen him like this, and they’re all really excited for him,” a source told People.

The news marks the latest whirlwind A-list engagement, after Ariana Grande said yes to Pete Davidson following a month of dating, and Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin got engaged just weeks after getting back together. (EXPRESS)

Meghan’s dad doesn’t take a hint, does he?

Ving Rhames on Friday recalled an incident in which police held him at gunpoint in his own home after a neighbor called to report a “large black man” breaking in. “I open the door and there is a red dot pointed at my face from a 9 mm,” Rhames told SiriusXM’s “The Clay Cane Show.” Rhames said the neighbor later denied placing the call when confronted by police. (EXPRESS)

Meghan Markle’s father, Thomas Markle, told the Daily Mail he has been frozen out by his daughter following her marriage to Prince Harry. “I’m really hurt that she’s cut me off completely,” he said in an interview published Saturday.

“I used to have a phone number and text number for her personal aides at the palace, but after I said a few critical words about the royal family changing Meghan, they cut me off.”
