Police in Palo Alto, Calif., last week arrested a teenage burglary suspect who’d been pestering victims for their Wi-Fi passwords. In a July 25 statement, police said the 17-year-old first asked for a Wi-Fi password from a pair of residents from whom he stole a bicycle. Later that night, he broke into a home, entered the bedroom, and woke up a couple in their 60s — again to ask about using the Wi-Fi “because he was out of data.” (EXPRESS)

Look to the Swiss: Should politicians sunbathe together? pandas, while Bern has its bears — but there are differences, too. The biggest one is that on hot summer days, everyone tosses their trunks or bikini into a bag and heads to a public swimming complex called Marzili on the banks of the Aare River. After work, crowds of people thread their way along the steep lane that leads to Marzili or the funicular that creaks up and down the incline. Once inside, they shed their work clothes and change into swimwear, lounging on towels in the sun and taking the occasional dip in one of Marzili’s three pools. Many stuff their street clothes into waterproof sacks and keep walking along the Aare. They jump into the cool, fast-moving, snow-fed river and let it carry them back to Marzili. You’ll see all body types there, from fit young couples to men of a certain age, their ample tan bellies resembling
JOHN KELLY (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Maybe the problem with Washington — all the partisanship and political rancor — is that we never see one another in our bathing suits. I came to this conclusion after vacationing in Switzerland. That nation seems pretty copacetic, at least to this outsider. The Swiss are neutral, which probably helps. They appear to have directed any martial tendencies into the creation of a reliable train system, complicated watches, tasty chocolate and comically large dogs. Of course, a country doesn’t just happen to function on its own. There has to be a government, and Switzerland’s is headquartered in Bern. It’s a city many tourists skip, but I wanted to go there precisely because it’s Switzerland’s Washington. There are similarities — Washington has its giant

D.C. to rank public schools THE DISTRICT The highest-performing public schools in D.C. could soon boast they are city-approved, five-star campuses. And the lowest-performing schools could be stuck with just one or two stars. The star system, expected to roll out in December, reflects a strategy to make school data more accessible to families and provide a uniform approach to assessing charter and traditional public schools. Supporters of the plan say the five-star rankings will hold schools accountable while providing parents with a consistent and digestible way to measure hundreds of schools. But critics fear the ranking system’s reliance on test scores will reserve the highest accolades for schools that educate the city’s wealthiest students and give paltry ratings to schools that serve the District’s most vulnerable children — even if students are improving academically and socially on those campuses. “It’s important to get this information into the hands of parents,” said D.C. State Superintendent of Education Hanseul Kang, whose office is spearheading the efforts. “The reality is that the information that we are using for our star rankings, I think all of it, if not the vast majority of it, is currently publicly available, but it’s scattered in different places.”
JAHI CHIKWENDIU (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Five-star system will make data more open to families, officials say
D.C. officials, including Mayor Muriel Bowser, left, and Superintendent of Education Hanseul Kang, right, hope rankings increase school transparency.
The Obama administration’s 2015 Every Student Succeeds Act mandated that states and the District develop uniform and easily accessible report cards for schools by the end of 2018. State governments have the flexibility to determine how they will assess schools, but the federal law says that some data, including standardized test scores and graduation rates, must be a significant part of the measurements. The law says states must provide families with an easy way to compare schools, which is why many states have turned to simple rankings such as the

star system. Natasha Ushomirsky, director of K-12 policy development at The Education Trust, an
advocacy organization, said some states are developing A to F ranking systems, while others are turning to colors or numerical standings to denote the performance of schools. In D.C., standardized test scores, and whether they’re improving, account for the biggest chunk of elementary and middle school rankings — 70 percent. In high schools, test scores represent about 40 percent of the ranking. Five percent of the ranking considers whether schools effectively educate students from low-income families, and another 5 percent reflects schools’ success in teaching English-language learners. Other states, according to Ushomirsky, give more weight to how effectively schools teach historically underserved populations. She said she suspects that many states will have to reassess rating algorithms in a year. “The goal of ratings should be to communicate whether they are serving all groups of students that they have in the building well,” Ushomirsky said. “A lot of systems fall short of that goal. That doesn’t mean we need to back away from the ratings — it means we have to improve the systems we have in place.” In D.C., the star rankings will also take into account attendance rates, chronic absenteeism, the percentage of students who reenroll in a school, participation in Advanced Placement classes and performance on Advanced Placement exams.

Bigfoot stirs hairy situation in Virginia race POLITICS Here’s a political attack you don’t hear every day — or ever: A Virginia congressional candidate says her opponent is unfit for office because he is a “devotee of Bigfoot erotica.” Democrat Leslie Cockburn said on Twitter that Republican opponent Denver Riggleman, above, fetishizes the mythical apelike giant, sparking viral interest. “This is not what we need on Capitol Hill,” Cockburn said in a tweet Sunday. Her posts included pictures from Riggleman’s Instagram account showing nude drawings of Bigfoot with his — assuming that the made-up creature is male — genitalia covered with a black rectangle. But Riggleman said allegations that he’s into Sasquatch’s sex life are big hairy lies. The drawings on his Instagram account are jokes, he said. One is from a birthday card from a friend; the other is a mock cover art for a satirical book he’s writing called “The Mating Habits of Bigfoot and Why Women Want Him.” Riggleman said he’s found Cockburn’s attacks “hilarious” and warned that she was in danger of losing support of proBigfoot potential constituents. Cockburn and Riggleman are competing to represent Virginia’s 5th Congressional District, which stretches from Northern Virginia to the North Carolina border. GOP U.S. Rep. Tom Garrett said he will not seek re-election, to focus on a recovery from alcoholism. ALAN SUDERMAN (AP)

local ANNAPOLIS A man charged with killing five people in the Capital Gazette newsroom in Annapolis pleaded not guilty Monday in court papers, and his attorneys contended that any identification of their client at trial will be tainted due to “impermissible� identification procedures used by police. Attorneys for Jarrod Ramos entered the not guilty plea in electronic court filings shortly before his scheduled initial appearance, which was canceled due to the filings. The appearance was no longer needed
because Ramos’ lawyer, William Davis, formally entered his clie n t ’s a p p e a r a nc e i n c ou r t Ramos documents. Ramos, who is being held without bail, was indicted by a grand jury on 23 counts, including murder, attempted murder and assault. Police say Ramos, 38, used a shotgun to blast his way into the newsroom June 28. Gerald Fischman, Rob Hiaasen, John McNamara, Rebecca Smith, and Wendi Winters were killed.

Ramos had unsuccessfully sued the writer and the newspaper’s publisher for defamation. BRIAN WITTE (AP)

Stephen Dalton Baril’s charges were reduced from felony rape and felony sodomy to misdemeanor sexual battery and felony unlawful wounding Friday as part of his Alford plea, which acknowledges sufficient evidence for conviction without admitting guilt. Judge Humes J. Franklin sentenced the 21-year-old to five years’ supervised probation. Baril is the grandson of John Dalton, a Republican who served as governor from 1978 to 1982. (AP)

Md. officer cleared after fatal shooting Montgomery police have had two deadly encounters in six weeks
Tomatoes from /RLVŧVb3URGXFHbLQb9LUJLQLD
MONTGOMERY COUNTY A Maryland police officer’s actions were legally justified when he repeatedly and fatally shot an unarmed man who attacked him in a Silver Spring parking lot last month, according to prosecutors who reviewed the encounter. “We have, unanimously, concluded that [the officer’s] actions were justified under the circumstances,� State’s Attorney Dario J. Broccolino wrote in a brief letter, released Monday, stating he was closing the case. The officer, Anand Badgujar, a two-year veteran of the Montgomery County Police Department, had been driving his police car the afternoon of June 11 when he saw Robert Lawrence White, 41, walking near Sligo
Creek Parkway. The officer thought White was acting suspiciously, police officials have said, and got out of his car, followed White on foot and tried to talk to him. Video recordings of the encounter were captured by body cameras worn by Badgujar and a second officer who came to his assistance. That footage, police said, is expected to be released this week. The fatal shooting was among two in a span of six weeks by a Montgomery County police officer. On July 23, SWAT Team member Edward Cochran fatally shot a 30-year-old man who had barricaded himself and his 3-year-old son in a bedroom. The 1,300-member force had one such fatal shooting from 2015 to 2017. So far this year, The Washington Post has documented 584 fatal shootings by police nationwide. DAN MORSE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Feds covertly monitor some U.S. passengers during domestic flights
CALIFORNIA
CHIP SOMODEVILLA (GETTY IMAGES)
TRANSPORTATION Federal air marshals have for years been quietly monitoring small numbers of U.S. air passengers and reporting on in-flight behavior considered suspicious, even if those individuals have no known terrorism links, the Transportation Security Administration said Sunday. Under a sensitive, previously undisclosed program called “Quiet Skies,” the TSA has since 2010 tasked marshals to identify passengers who raise flags because of travel histories or other factors and conduct secret observations of their actions — including behavior as common as sweating heavily or using the restroom repeatedly — as they fly between U.S. destinations. The Boston Globe first revealed the existence of the Quiet Skies program Sunday. In response to questions, TSA spokesman James O. Gregory offered more details on the program, comparing it to other law enforcement activities that ask officers to closely monitor individuals or areas vulnerable to crime. “We are no different than the cop on the corner who is placed there because there is an increased possibility that something might happen,” Gregory said. “When you’re in a tube at 30,000 feet . . . it makes sense to put someone there.” The TSA declined to provide

complete information on how individuals are selected for Quiet Skies and how the program works. According to the TSA, the program uses travel records and other information to identify passengers who will be subject to additional checks at airports and observed during flights by air marshals who report on their activities to the agency. The initiative raises new questions about the privacy of ordinary Americans as they go about routine travel within the United States and about the broad net cast by law enforcement as it seeks to keep air travel safe. Gregory said the program did not single out passengers based on race or religion and should not be considered surveillance
because the agency does not, for example, listen to passengers’ calls or follow flagged individuals outside airports. But during in-flight observation of people who are tagged as Quiet Skies passengers, marshals use an agency checklist to record passenger behavior: Did he or she sleep during the flight? Did he or she use a cellphone? Look around erratically? “The program analyzes information on a passenger’s travel patterns while taking the whole picture into account,” Gregory said, adding “an additional line of defense to aviation security.” “If that person does all that stuff, and the airplane lands safely and they move on, the behavior will be noted, but they
will not be approached or apprehended,” Gregory said. He declined to say whether the program has resulted in arrests or disruption of any plots. Hugh Handeyside, senior staff attorney with the American Civil Liberties Union’s National Security Project, called on the TSA to provide more information. “Such surveillance not only makes no sense, it is a big waste of taxpayer money and raises a number of constitutional questions,” he said. Faiza Patel, co-director of the New York University School of Law’s Brennan Center for Justice, said the program raises a “host of civil liberties and profiling concerns.” MISSY RYAN AND ASHLEY HALSEY III (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The alleged harassment and
other misconduct, revealed through a preliminary sevenmonth internal investigation, was a “systemic problem going on for years,� said FEMA Administrator William “Brock� Long. Some of the behavior could rise to the level of criminal activity, he said. Some of the claims are detailed in a summary of the investigation.

Trump’s movable goal post ANALYSIS President Trump’s defense in the Russia investigation has been a study in goal-post moving — constantly watering down previous denials and raising the standard for what would constitute actual wrongdoing. But rarely has it been so concentrated in one morning. Trump’s lawyer/spokesman Rudy Giuliani appeared on Fox News’ and CNN’s morning shows on Monday to downplay the idea that colluding with the Russians would have even been illegal. The most notable portion of the interviews was when Giuliani rekindled the idea that collusion isn’t even a crime. Trump’s defenders have occasionally noted that the word doesn’t appear in the criminal code — which is a misnomer — but Giuliani took it a step further: He basically suggested Trump would have had to pay for Russia to interfere on his behalf. “I don’t even know if that’s a crime — colluding with Russians,” Giuliani said on CNN. “Hacking is the crime. The president didn’t hack. He didn’t pay for the hacking.” Giuliani added on Fox: “I have been sitting here looking in the federal code trying to find collusion as a crime. Collusion is not a crime.” Trump himself has been

Giuliani says even if the president did collude, it wouldn’t be a crime
Rudy Giuliani said he didn’t even know if colluding with Russians is a crime.
Is ‘collusion’ a crime? Rudy Giuliani is technically right that election collusion isn’t a precise legal term. The U.S. code mostly uses the term “collusion” in antitrust laws to address crimes like price fixing. But there are plenty of specific laws that could apply if the Trump campaign is found to have collaborated with Moscow, including a conspiracy to defraud the U.S. There are also laws against election fraud, computer hacking, wire fraud and falsifying records. In other words, “collusion” might be shorthand. But if it relates to Russia and U.S. elections, it can still be very much against the law. (AP)
arguing for more than a year not that collusion wasn’t a crime, but that there simply was “no collusion.” Just as Trump’s legal team has taken to arguing that a president can’t legally be guilty of obstructing justice, it’s now arguing that the other side of the investigation that has to do with Trump — the collusion side — is also a bogus standard. Or at least that seems to be where this is headed. Giuliani also, at one point, seemed to offer a very narrow denial of what happened with the Trump Tower meeting. While discussing former Trump lawyer
Michael Cohen’s allegation that Trump knew about the meeting, Giuliani focused his defense on arguing not necessarily that Trump didn’t know about it — but that he wasn’t physically at the meeting. “I’m happy to tell Mueller that Trump wasn’t at the Trump Tower meeting,” Giuliani said. Asked how he can say that, he said: “Because Cohen is a liar, and Don Jr. says he wasn’t there.” “He did not participate in any meeting about the Russia transaction,” Giuliani said. “And the other people at the meeting that he claims he had without the president about it say he was never there.” The idea that Trump wasn’t there isn’t the question, though. Trump has denied having knowledge of it, and Donald Trump Jr. has said under oath that his father didn’t know about it. Of course, Cohen’s allegation has thrown all of that into doubt. Trump’s former lawyer says there are other people who can vouch for the fact that Trump knew about the meeting in real time. With that potentially damning revelation emerging, Giuliani seems to be guarding against the idea that Trump actually did know about the meeting — but arguing that he wasn’t in the room, and even that working with the Russians wouldn’t be criminal. That’s a pretty remarkable distance from where all these denials began. AARON BLAKE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump: I would ‘certainly meet’ with Iran leader FOREIGN AFFAIRS President Trump said Monday that he’d “certainly meet” with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani, and without preconditions, if the Iranian leader were willing. Speaking during a joint news conference with Italy’s premier, Trump said he would meet with the Iranians “anytime they want to.” The overture comes as Trump and the Iranians have been escalating their rhetoric after Trump’s May withdrawal of the U.S. from the landmark nuclear accord. The U.S. has also vowed to boost sanctions until Iran changes its regional policies, including its support for regional militant groups. It’s unclear whether Rouhani has any interest in meeting with Trump. Rouhani’s chief of staff claimed earlier this month in Iran’s state-owned newspaper that Rouhani had rejected eight requests from Trump for oneon-one talks last year. Trump has long cast himself as a master negotiator who is most effective when he meets with his counterparts face to face. He pointed to his recent oneon-ones with North Korea’s Kim Jong Un and Russia’s Vladimir Putin as examples of the benefits of such get-togethers. “I believe in meeting,” he said, talking up the benefits of “speaking to other people, especially when you’re talking about potentials of war and death and famine and lots of other things.” JILL COLVIN (AP)

U.S.: N. Korea is working on new missiles
JAHI CHIKWENDIU (THE WASHINGTON POST)
NEWS. FUN. FAST.
GUN LAWS They look futuristic, the type of firearms that would-be assassins use in movies: 3D-printed guns made of a hard plastic that are simple to assemble, easy to conceal and tough to trace. The future is here. After spending years fighting the federal government for the right to do so, a Texas company was given the green light to post blueprints online showing people how to make 3D-printed guns from the comfort of their home. Gun safety advocates and some law enforcement officials are appalled, worried that this is exactly what criminals and terrorists want: guns that can’t be flagged by metal detectors, don’t have serial numbers to trace and don’t require the usual background checks. “When you think about all the rhetoric we here in our nation about tightening our borders and homeland security, and now we’re going to put out there for anyone who wants a recipe for how to overcome ... TSA airport screenings or any other metal detector,” said Rick Myers, executive director of the Major Cities Chiefs Association. “It’s absolutely insane.” On Monday, the District of Columbia and eight states, including Maryland, filed a suit in Seattle asking a judge to block the Trump administration’s late-June decision to allow Defense Distributed to publish downloadable blueprints for a 3D-printed gun. “I have a question for the Trump Administration: Why are you allowing dangerous criminals easy access to weapons?”
Defense Distributed will offer blueprints for AR-style long guns similar to the one above, and for a pistol-like gun.
Washington Attorney General Bob Ferguson, a Democrat, said in a statement Monday. “These downloadable guns are unregistered and very difficult to detect, even with metal detectors, and will be available to anyone regardless of age, mental health or criminal history.” Cody Wilson, the founder of Defense Distributed, first published downloadable designs for a 3D-printed firearm in 2013. The designs were downloaded about 100,000 times until the State Department ordered him to cease, contending it violated federal export laws since some of the blueprints were downloaded by people outside the United States. But in a reversal that stunned gun control advocates, the State Department last month settled its case against Wilson and agreed to allow him to resume posting the blueprints at the end of July. Wilson took to Twitter, declaring victory and proclaiming he would start back up on Wednesday.
Poor-quality firearms Unlike traditional firearms, experts say, 3D-printed guns normally only last a few rounds before they fall apart, and they usually hold a bullet or two and then must be manually loaded afterward. And they’re not usually very accurate, either. A video posted of a test by the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives in 2013 showed a gun produced from a design by Defense Distributed disintegrating into pieces after a single round was fired. (AP)
Gun industry experts say the guns are simply a modern-day equivalent of what already is legal and readily available: the ability to assemble your own firearm using traditional materials and methods at home without serial numbers. They argue that 3D-printed firearms won’t be a draw for criminals since the printers needed to make one

are wildly expensive and the firearms themselves aren’t very durable. Robert Spitzer, chairman of political science at the State University of New York at Cortland and an expert on the Second Amendment, warned that while 3D-printed firearms are a novelty now — too expensive to make and too fragile to be used for more than a few shots — technology will soon catch up. “Their popularity right now is limited,” Spitzer said. “There was interest in the blueprints because they’re sort of exotic and because sort of a taboo thing.” Erich Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America, echoed that sentiment. “It’s not very practical,” Pratt said. “Let’s be serious. First of all, you’re going to plunk out thousands of dollars just for the printers. This is a very expensive route to go just to get a piece of plastic that will only last a round.” LISA MARIE PANE (AP)
NATIONAL SECURITY U.S. spy agencies are seeing signs that North Korea is constructing new missiles at a factory that produced the country’s first intercontinental ballistic missiles capable of reaching the United States, according to officials familiar with the intelligence. Newly obtained evidence, including satellite photos taken in recent weeks, indicates that work is underway on at least one and possibly two liquid-fueled ICBMs at a large research facility in Sanumdong, on the outskirts of Pyongyang, the officials said. The findings are the latest to show ongoing activity inside North Korea’s nuclear and missile facilities at a time when the country’s leaders are engaged in arms talks with the U.S. The new intelligence does not suggest an expansion of North Korea’s capabilities but shows that work on advanced weapons is continuing weeks after President Trump declared that Pyongyang was “no longer a Nuclear Threat.” The reports about new missile construction come after recent revelations about a suspected uranium enrichment facility, called Kangson, that North Korea is operating in secret. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said last week that factories “continue to produce fissile material” used in making nuclear weapons. He declined to say whether they are building new missiles.

Astros get RHP Osuna from Jays
Colleges and pros hire firms to clean, monitor athletes’ social media MLB On Sunday night, Trea Turner and Sean Newcomb joined Josh Hader as major leaguers facing up to racist and homophobic tweets they sent as teenagers. Newcomb, 25, nearly threw a no-hitter for the Braves against the Dodgers — a career-defining moment that took a turn when he called reporters back into the clubhouse to apologize for offensive tweets sent when he was 18. Homophobic and racially insensitive tweets by Turner, now 25, from 2011 and 2012 also surfaced Sunday. The Nationals’ shortstop said he was “sincerely sorry” in a statement released by the team. “I believe people who know me understand those regrettable actions do not reflect my values or who I am,” Turner said. Hader, who pitches for the Brewers, is still in apology mode after tweets from his past surfaced during the All-Star Game this month. He was given a standing ovation in his first game back in Milwaukee, and then booed in a start at San Francisco. The trend of high-profile athletes being burned by reckless posts touches many young stars who have been online since they were kids. Communications
professionals are working to help athletes avoid these pitfalls. In response to the latest news, publicist Lauren Walsh recalled how she dealt with a football player who had offensive Facebook posts years before he prepared for the NFL draft. She went through his whole social media history, taking down any posts that even raised an eyebrow. Scrubbing tweets, Instagram comments, captions and status updates has grown into a top priority for LW Branding, Walsh’s company that has performed image control for 40 NFL athletes in the past four years. “Any client that we take on, that’s generally the first step we do in the process,” Walsh said. “This can take someone down in an instant.” Wyoming quarterback Josh Allen apologized for a series of offensive tweets he sent in high school that were revealed before the NFL draft, when the Bills picked him No. 7 overall. As Villanova’s Donte DiVincenzo was celebrating being named most outstanding player of the Final Four, some of his old tweets that included racially insensitive and homophobic comments resurfaced. Walsh said athletes should be thinking about the bigger picture, as slip-ups can be critical to coaches and executives. Social media can factor into whether an athlete is even

Fan: Apology feels off After Trea Turner apologized for old tweets that contained racially insensitive and homophobic language, a Nationals fan who identifies as queer told The Washington Post how deeply the posts affected her. “It feels like an actual gut-punch,” Jenn Rubenstein said. Turner said he was sorry for bringing negative attention to the Nats, but never mentioned the LGBTQ community. “This sounds more like, ‘Oh, shoot, I got caught and that’s a problem,’ ” said Rubenstein, who encouraged Turner to donate to LGBTQ causes and tweeted statistics for suicides of LGBTQ youth at him.

The World Series champion Astros swapped closers with the Blue Jays on Monday — a day before the trade deadline — when they got Roberto Osuna from Toronto for Ken Giles and a pair of pitching prospects. Osuna, 23, is eligible to pitch Sunday after a 75-game suspension under MLB’s domestic violence policy. An assault charge in Toronto is still pending. In a statement, Astros president Jeff Luhnow said Osuna has undergone counseling and is “remorseful.” Osuna has pitched six scoreless innings in the minors since July 14. He has nine saves in 10 chances in the majors this year. Giles, 27, has a 4.99 ERA and was demoted to Class AAA on July 11. (AP)

Winning 3 national titles helps her set the tone for year’s biggest meet SWIMMING Still only 21, Katie Ledecky was fresh off winning the 17th national championship of her young career when a reporter asked whether she could ever challenge Michael Phelps’ record of 61 American titles. “No, that’s not something I even look at or know,” she said with a chuckle. “That’s superimpressive. I think I’d have to keep swimming for 20 years to be able to match that.” Perhaps someday she will close that gap. For now, like Phelps not long ago, Ledecky is chasing records, history and her own marks. Over the past week at the U.S. championships in Irvine, Calif., Ledecky again breezed through the competition, a high-speed motorboat in a world of canoes. The Bethesda native won the 200-, 400- and 800-meter freestyle races before pulling out of Sunday’s 1,500. That performance easily punched her ticket for the Pan Pacific championships, which begin Aug. 9 in Tokyo.
There were no world records at nationals for Ledecky — a footnote required for no other swimmer. Her lone world record this year came in the 1,500 in May, a distance she didn’t need to race in California but one in which she will surely compete next month. Her entire season has been pointed to Pan Pacs, the sport’s biggest meet until next year’s world championships. “I want to be my best this summer at Pan Pacs,” she said before the U.S. championships, “but if it’s kind of split between these two meets … I’ll take that, too.” Ledecky’s 17 national titles are more than any other active swimmer and tie her with Natalie Coughlin for seventh all-time among American women. A five-time Olympic champion, Ledecky knows that records often come in big international meets when the best swimmers in the world push each other. She could compete in as many as six events at the Pan Pacs: the 200, 400, 800 and 1,500 freestyle races, as well as the 4x100 and 4x200 relays. She competed in Pan Pacs in 2014, winning five gold medals and setting two world records as a 17-year-old. RICK MAESE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

5 new health trends
Every year, thousands of food brands head to New York to show off their wares and entice buyers from grocery stores to stock their products. It’s a trade show called the Fancy Foods Show, and it’s one of the best places to catch health food trends before they hit grocery store shelves. Here are five flavors and products that are going to be big over the next year. MAURA JUDKIS (THE WASHINGTON POST)
How much is too much fruit juice?
Drinking vinegar Drinking a small daily quantity of straight-up apple cider vinegar became trendy in the past three years because foodie health blogs promoted it as a detoxifying weight-loss cureall. And plenty of brands have jumped into the market, embracing the burn. The aptly named Fire Brew, based in Portland, Ore., has a line of “health tonics,” each designed to optimize a certain area of personal wellness, and in flavors including beet, citrus and chai. Fire Cider offers an extra-spicy take on the drink that includes garlic, ginger, onions, horseradish, habanero pepper, turmeric and citrus, as well as some honey.

Ayurveda is the Indian practice of holistic medicine, and an important part of it is diet. In Ayurvedic medicine, certain foods and herbs are eaten together to balance out a person’s health and to benefit digestion, immunity and more. Dancing Elephant is producing cups of kitchari, a stew that boasts healing spices. Davidson’s Organics has introduced a line of Ayurvedic teas, each with a specific aim: weight loss, sleep, digestion, decongestion and detoxification. Vegan Rob’s makes an “Ashwagandhabar,” an Ayurvedic energy bar that the company says reduces stress, anxiety and depression.

Moringa
Ghee, or clarified butter, is another staple of Indian cooking, but it’s been having a moment this year — in part thanks to its purported health benefits, and also because the fat is promoted for adherents of the paleo and ketogenic diets. This year, special flavored ghees are showing up. Farmtrue‘s ghee comes in the flavors garlic scape and vanilla maple chai, and the company also makes ghee-nut butters. 4th & Heart has a line of chocolate ghee spreads. Pure Indian Foods has turmeric ghee, as well as a ghee that contains medium chain triglyceride oil that is intended to be stirred into coffee. (It’s a paleo thing.)
Have you ever wanted to make something with cauliflower and thought, “This is too much work?” Cooking with this brassica has never been easier, thanks to a bunch of new convenience products that go beyond your basic cauliflower rice. Caulipower has a cauliflower-based baking mix, in regular and paleo-friendly. Kitchen & Love sells cauliflower cups meant to be a quick convenience meal, in Peruvian vegetable ceviche, Indian vegetable curry and Moroccan vegetable harissa flavors. From the Ground Up has cauliflowerbased replacements for all your favorite junk foods, such as pretzel sticks and Cheez-Its.
Mankind’s quest to discover new superfoods continues apace. Next up: moringa, an ancient plant that has long been used in Asia and Africa for its purported health benefits. According to Healthline, it is rich in nutrients and antioxidants, ts, and it may reduce inflammation. So it’s no surprise rise that it’s starting to pop up in products. Kuli Kuli sells powdered moringa smoothie mix, energy shots and moringa superfood bars, with a half-cup cup of greens in each bar. Stash is selling a new organic anic moringa mint tea. And Brad’s Organic, another tea company, has it in its unadulterated flavor, as well as moringa with lemon and ginger.

How much fruit juice should kids drink? Not very much. That’s the essence of the juice policy statement from the American Academy of Pediatrics. Schoolage children (7 to 18 years old) should limit consumption to 8 ounces a day. Preschoolers (ages 4 to 6) can have 4 to 6 ounces a day, while toddlers (ages 1 to 3) should have no more than 4 ounces a day, and babies should not drink any juice at all. The big problem with juice is its high sugar content. Pediatricians advise choosing 100 percent fruit juice, which has no added sugars. But even pure fruit juice can have quite a lot of sugar — as much as 18 grams per serving, about the same as soda. One tip: Dilute fruit juice with water to reduce its sugar content. JILL U.

daughter Laura’s high school photography teacher (upon whom Laura was crushing) and got caught in the act. The gifted Michaela Watkins wears all the complications of Valerie on her face, radiating melancholy, confusion, sweetness and inexplicable optimism. As for Alex, he still can’t commit to a woman. Sure, it’s easy to blame his ditzy and neglectful mother (Frances Conroy), but isn’t it time for Alex to man up? The wistful look in actor Tommy Dewey’s eyes shows how his character is a lost little boy at heart. “Casual” packs an extraordinary amount of plot and wit into each half-hour episode. One key point this season:
HULU
‘Guardians’ cast supports director Gunn
Laura (Tara Lynne Barr) returns home after two years abroad, with her lover, Tathiana (Lorenza Izzo). “My family is crazy,” Laura tells Tathiana, who replies, “I was expecting way worse.” Actually, they are pretty unbalanced. And in this new set of episodes, technology adds to their neuroses, as Valerie’s dreams are haunted by an Amazon Echo-like device that knows everything about her. Amid all this high anxiety is a flicker of hope — with a typically offbeat “Casual” twist. Alex has become a doting dad to a winsome little girl, raising her with her mother, Rae (Maya Erskine), whom he hooked up with when she was his Airbnb guest. Alex says he and Rae are “sexually incompatible co-parents who mostly but not exclusively love each other” — which leads Valerie to dryly note, “What you just described is marriage.”
The “Guardians of the Galaxy” cast came out in support of ousted director James Gunn on Monday, 10 days after his firing. In an open letter signed by Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Bradley Cooper, Vin Diesel and five other main stars of the franchise, the cast said it fully backs the filmmaker. “Each of us looks forward to working with our friend James again in the future,” the cast wrote. Gunn was let go from directing the third installment of the franchise by the Walt Disney Co. after old tweets resurfaced in which he joked about subjects like rape and pedophilia. (AP)
Spencer to star as black hair care mogul Walker Netflix announced that Octavia Spencer will star in a miniseries about Sarah Breedlove, the black hair care mogul known as Madam C.J. Walker. The eightepisode drama, which includes LeBron James as a producer, is based on A’Lelia Bundles’ book “On Her Own Ground.”
‘Sabrina’ reboot gets October release date
CBS announced Monday it wil will keep chief executive and chairman Leslie Moonves in place while an outside counsel investigates sex sexual misconduct allegations against him. The news came after a New Yorker article Friday cited six wo women accusing Moonves of sexual harassment and intimidation. The company also said Monday tha that it will postpone its annual shareholders meeting, which was scheduled to take place Aug. 10. (AP) Deadline: HBO acquires documentary on USA Gymnastics scandal
(EXPRESS/AP)
The platform is standing by “Master of None” and Aziz Ansari despite a sexual misconduct allegation against him earlier this year. Programming executive Cindy Holland said Netflix would “certainly be happy” to make a third season of the comedy co-created by and starring Ansari.

“I’m just not going to ask how bigfoot porn is now a part of our national political discourse.” @THERICKWILSON, tweeting about
Bigfoot porn and its effect on the race for representative in Virginia’s 5th Congressional District. Democratic candidate Leslie Cockburn shared a drawing from her opponent Denver Riggleman’s social media referencing Bigfoot’s private parts. Riggleman said the drawing was an inside joke.
“Their heartbreak is beyond words. But if they’re brave enough to say it, we all need to be brave enough to hear it.” @SAVANNAHGUTHRIE, sharing her “Today” show interview
with Olympic skier Bode Miller and his wife, Morgan. The couple opened up for the first time since their 19-month-old daughter, Emmy, drowned in a neighbor’s pool in June. Bode said they feel it’s an “obligation” to speak out. “I think it does, in some way, help to heal a little bit,” he said. “That maybe we’re preventing it from happening to somebody else.”
“He’s amazing, but I hope he didn’t get pizza sauce on the keys.” A FACEBOOK COMMENTER, reacting to a
story about Michigan teen Bryce Dudal, who delivers pizza. Dudal surprised a family on a recent delivery when he played a flawless rendition of one movement of Beethoven’s “Moonlight” sonata. The mother in the family, Julie Varchetti, posted a video of Dudal playing on Facebook, where he is getting some attention for his hidden talents.
“Refusing to tip a restaurant server (or tipping anything less than 15 percent) means you’re the one perpetrating wage theft. Not the restaurant. You.” @HELS, reacting to a recent article from
Eater about bad tippers. In the article, “Sam,” a 29-year-old New Yorker, said she always tips about $5, no matter the total cost of the bill. “I’m not going to be rude and say I don’t care, but I actually really don’t care,” Sam told Eater.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You may have to hang on to some information before you are able to put it to use. Don’t make the mistake of sharing it prematurely. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can approach a familiar situation in a far more imaginative way today — with the caveat that you must not invent anything new outright. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Teammates may not agree with your handling of a tricky situation. Open this up and listen to what you are told. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) An alternative course yields similar results as the familiar one — but for one very small but significant improvement. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You are eager to be considered “the best,” but you are not yet ready to wear that mantle if you are still plagued by insecurity.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A matter of style mustn’t be allowed to come between you and a friend. Acknowledge that there are several ways to do something. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You may find it difficult today to position yourself properly to receive what is coming to you by rights.

Highs may hit the mid80s. Scattered evening showers and storms are possible, followed by partly to mostly cloudy skies.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) A certain situation evolves quickly today and requires more than a cursory look. You must give it all your attention. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You find a way out of a situation that is clearly not for you. Be sure to take advantage of this and similar situations. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You don’t want to put things into motion prematurely today. You require more information before you feel ready to take that key step.
