Solar panels powered by faith Local Catholic nonprofit helps churches switch to renewable energy

Our graduates are leading the teams that keep us safe.

THE DISTRICT Right now, it’s an empty field.

But by next year, the 5-acre plot in Northeast Washington will sprout about 5,000 solar panels, the largest ground array the nation’s capital has seen — a change wrought by local Catholic groups.

Catholic Energies, a nonprofit organization that helps churches across the country switch to solar energy, partnered with the field’s owner, Catholic Charities of the Archdiocese of Washington, to build a system sufficient to keep the lights on in 260 homes for one year. The power produced will go back into the D.C. grid, earning Catholic Charities enough energy credits to offset the electricity costs of 12 of its properties across the District.

“I’m just really excited that we’ve been able to do something that I really believe is the right thing to do for the planet,” said Mary Jane Morrow, the chief financial officer of Catholic Charities, a faith-based social services agency.

This wi ll be the second

Catholic Energies recently installed solar panels at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Hampton, Va.

energy-saving project Catholic Energies has undertaken in the region. The group finished an installation of 440 solar panels for a Virginia church in June.

The solar panels, slated for completion in early 2020, will cost several million dollars, but Catholic Charities will not pay a cent. Instead, Catholic Energies negotiates a deal between its client — typically a Catholic church or high school — and an investor, most often a renewable-energy company. The investor agrees to

pay a third-party contractor to install a solar system in return for a 30% federal tax credit, as well as financial incentives that vary by state.

Catholic Energies then takes a small developer’s fee, enough to fund its five-person operation based in the District on a breakeven basis.

The Catholic Charities solar system, funded by IGS Solar, will save the agency several hundred thousand dollars per year.

But the fiscal benefits are

not the entire point, Morrow said. She cited “Laudato Si,” a 192-page paper Pope Francis released in 2015 that argues for a partnership between science and religion to combat humancaused climate change.

“We love being supportive of the pope’s position and believe that it really has helped advance the conversation within the Catholic community about our responsibility to be good stewards of this earth,” she said.

Respiratory illness cases rise by half over 2018 Virginia health officials have found that the number of reported outbreaks of respiratory illnesses this summer, such as one that contributed to the deaths of three people and sickened dozens more at an assisted living facility in Northern Virginia, has increased by roughly half. The number of such outbreaks this year rose to 19 from a dozen or so last year. (TWP)

Lawmakers court new constituents after many districts redrawn

VIRGINIA LAURA VOZZELLA (THE WASHINGTON POST)

POLITICS The most powerful Republican in Virginia threw a cookout one Friday in July, in a mostly black community that a federal court recently made part of his legislative district.

“This is a new neighborhood for me,” House Speaker Kirk Cox, the veteran legislator representing Colonial Heights, said over and over, as he knocked on doors in the area a few days later.

While Virginia has grown more racially diverse and less favorable to the GOP, the party has clung to control of the House under a map that a federal court said packed African Americans into certain districts, diluting their political power elsewhere.

Judges declared that racial gerrymandering and imposed a new map in June, five months before an election with every seat on the ballot and Republicans defending razor-thin majorities.

The revamped House districts are less white and less Republican. Cox’s swung from favoring Republicans by 26 points to tilting toward Democrats by 6 points, from 76% white to 58%, and from 18% black to 34%, according to the Virginia Public Access Project.

Del. Chris Jones, R-Suffolk, chief mapmaker in 2011, saw similarly seismic shifts. A district that had been rated “R+12” for its Republican bent now ranks “D+15.” Its white population shrank from 68% to 50%, while

Virginia House Speaker Kirk Cox, R-Colonial Heights, greets new constituents in his redrawn district at a cookout.

the proportion of black residents rose from 26% to 45%.

“For the first time this decade, Virginians are finally going to have the chance to elect candidates of their choice,” said former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder Jr., chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, which helped challenge the old maps. “The aim of everything that started in Jamestown 400 years ago was to allow the people to choose their representatives, and not to have politicians picking their voters.”

Cox’s Democratic challenger, Sheila Bynum-Coleman, is an African American woman who in 2017 fell 819 votes shy of unseating veteran Del. Riley Ingram, RHopewell, in an adjacent district before the new maps.

“Virginians are finally going to have the chance to elect candidates of their choice.”

ERIC HOLDER JR., chairman of the National Democratic Redistricting Committee, on why his group wanted Virginia’s election map redrawn

“I’m running to represent my community,” she said. “And I’m fiercely determined to be a voice for my community.”

More than two dozen House districts were redrawn to remedy the 11 under court order.

Republican incumbents in six of those districts will have a harder

time defending their seats.

The GOP controls the House 51 to 48 and the Senate 20 to 19, with one vacancy in each chamber.

Cox, 61, for 29 years has represented the district where he has lived his whole life. Now, the retired teacher is introducing himself to 30,000 new constituents, out of a district of about 80,000.

But his district was evolving even before the new map.

“Chesterfield has changed a lot irrespective of the new lines,” said Stephen J. Farnsworth, a University of Mary Washington political scientist.

“Generally speaking, the second wave of suburban residential settlement isn’t as conservative as the people who moved out of the city a generation or two ago.”

local District begins to see impact of the law that took effect in July 2017 THE DISTRICT At least two terminally ill D.C. residents ended their lives last year under a medical aid-indying law, according to city statistics released Friday.

The report from the D.C. Department of Health offers the first comprehensive view of the impact of the law that took effect in July 2017 over the objections of religious groups, advocates

for people with disabilities and congressional Republicans.

Four cancer patients in 2018 requested a fatal dose of drugs, prescribed by three physicians, the report says. Two succumbed to their diseases before they could end their lives.

According to the report, the two patients who used the law were a 72-year-old woman with breast cancer that had spread to her lung and an 81-year-old woman with lung cancer.

The 81-year-old appears to be Corinne “Teeny” Zimmermann, a Palisades resident who had lung

cancer and died July 15, 2018, after ingesting medication prescribed under the law. Relatives said she had challenges obtaining the drugs but appreciated the option in her final days.

The D.C. Council passed the Death With Dignity Act on an 11-to-2 vote in late 2016.

Advocates for the practice say such laws give terminally ill patients autonomy and an opportunity to avoid unnecessary suffering. Critics say people could be steered to early deaths to reduce medical costs.

D.C. prosecutor says reducing sentences could lead to recidivism THE DISTRICT Legislation proposed by a member of the D.C. Council that could result in the early release of some prisoners convicted of violent crimes is being praised by criminal justice reform advocates but has faced criticism from the District’s top prosecutor and concern

from victims and their families.

The new effort would further amend a law passed in 2016 that gives people who committed serious crimes as children, and have served at least 15 years in prison, a chance to have their punishment reduced.

The latest amendment, introduced in February, would expand the pool of potentially eligible inmates to those who committed crimes when they were between the ages of 18 and

THE WASHINGTON POST

Proposal for early releases criticized D.C. Council member Charles Allen has authored new legislation, but Jessie Liu, U.S. Attorney for the District, said it’s being proposed too quickly.

The idea behind the legislation is that children and young adults should not receive adult punishments of decades in prison.

Since the original D.C. resentencing act became law, 17

people have been released or had their sentences reduced, all over prosecutors’ objections.

Both D.C. Council member Charles Allen, who wrote the legislation, and prosecutors say none of those released have been rearrested. But Jessie Liu, the U.S. Attorney for the District, said the quick passage of laws and amendments did not give enough time to see whether those released will reoffend.

According to Liu’s office, 583 prison inmates would qualify to seek the sentence reduction.

Some 85% of those inmates were convicted of murder, voluntary manslaughter, first-degree sex abuse and child sex abuse.

Report: Iranian Guard seizes tanker in Gulf

Trump’s pick to succeed Coats withdraws name

If confirmed, vessel would be the third taken in two weeks

ICE LOSS

Greenland is melting away this summer

IRGC (IRIB VIA AP)

IRAN Iranian forces seized a ship in the Persian Gulf suspected of carrying smuggled fuel, state media reported Sunday, marking the Revolutionary Guard’s third seizure of a vessel in recent weeks and the latest show of strength by the paramilitary force amid a spike in regional tensions.

State TV and the semiofficial Fars news agency reported that seven crew members were detained when the ship was seized late Wednesday carrying 185,000 gallons of “smuggled fuel” from Iran. The local reports did not provide further details on the vessel or the nationality of the crew.

The news agency reported the ship was seized near Farsi Island, where a Revolutionary Guard naval base is located. The island sits in the Persian Gulf between Saudi Arabia and Iran, north of the Strait of Hormuz.

Guard commander Gen. Ramazan Zirahi was quoted by Iran’s state TV as saying the ship was seized in Iranian territorial waters and had been transporting diesel fuel.

State TV and other local media also ran footage of the ship, but did not show any flag or identifying marker for the vessel.

This undated image made from a video provided by Iranian state media shows a tanker the Revolutionary Guard says it seized in the Persian Gulf.

“This foreign vessel had received the fuel from other ships and was transferring it to Persian Gulf Arab states,” Zirahi said in comments carried by Fars new agency.

It was not immediately clear why a ship carrying Iranian fuel would transfer its cargo to energy-exporting Gulf states, but smuggling has been a source of concern in Iran.

Iranian media reported last month that some 8 million liters of government-subsidized Iranian fuel are smuggled daily to other countries where prices are much higher.

The new claims would make this the third vessel seized by

the Guard in the past two weeks, and the second accused of smuggling fuel.

The U.S. Fifth Fleet, based in Bahrain, said it did not have information to confirm the reports. Maritime tracking experts also said they did not have any immediate information about the incident or details on the vessel.

Maritime intelligence firm Dryad Global said that, if confirmed, this is likely to be “another relatively low-key interception designed to signal to the West that Iran maintains the capability and intent to exercise its influence” in the Persian Gulf.

MEHDI FATTAHI AND AYA BATRAWY (AP)

A recent heat wave accelerated the melting of Greenland’s ice sheet and caused huge ice loss in the Arctic. The world’s largest island has 82% of its surface covered in ice, and nearly 60% of that icy area showed signs of melting last week, said Ruth Mottram of the Danish Meteorological Institute.

She said that from June 1 — roughly the start of the ice-loss season — to the end of July, the Greenland ice sheet lost 240 gigatons (240 billion metric tons).

That compares with 290 gigatons lost overall in the 2012 melt season, which usually goes through August. That season also was extreme. Just 1 gigaton of ice loss is equivalent to 400,000 Olympic swimming pools, and 100 gigatons corresponds to a 0.28 mm (0.01 inch) rise in global sea levels. (AP)

nation+world Nuon Chea oversaw some of worst horrors of Cambodian genocide PHNOM PENH, CAMBODIA Nuon Chea, the infamous “Brother No. 2” who presided over some of the worst atrocities of Khmer Rouge rule in Cambodia in the 1970s and ultimately was convicted of crimes against humanity and genocide, died Sunday in the capital, Phnom Penh. He was 93.

The Associated Press reported the death. No other details were immediately available.

As the secretive chief ideologue and deputy of the radical communist regime led by Pol Pot, he was the official mainly responsible for devising and operating the

Khmer Rouge killing machine — carrying out a policy of mass executions that became a hallmark of Cambodia’s holocaust.

It is estimated that about 2 million people died from summary executions, famine, disease and overwork during the Khmer Rouge’s brutal reign of terror from 1975 to 1979.

Known as “Pol Pot’s shadow,” Nuon Chea was convicted of crimes against humanity by a special U.N.-backed tribunal in 2014 and sentenced to life imprisonment. He was 88 at the time, the oldest and most senior surviving Khmer Rouge leader.

After a second lengthy trial, the tribunal in 2018 also found Nuon Chea guilty of genocide against minority Cham Muslims

of suspected “traitors” within Khmer Rouge ranks. Thousands were tortured into making bogus confessions at the Tuol Sleng prison in Phnom Penh and were subsequently executed. At least 14,000 prisoners passed through the former high school’s gates.

Only seven survived.

Unlike other former leaders who were called to account for the regime’s crimes, Nuon Chea was largely unrepentant.

“Believe me, if these traitors were alive, the Khmers as a people would have been finished,” he said, referring to those purged, in a video recorded before his 2007 arrest. “If we had shown mercy to these people, the nation would have been lost.” WILLIAM BRANIGIN

The numbers that grow with each mass shooting The Washington Post has analyzed shootings beginning Aug. 1, 1966, in which four or more people were killed — excluding domestic shootings in private homes and shootings tied to gang disputes or robberies. A broader definition would yield higher numbers. Here are The Post’s findings. (TWP)

165

The number of mass shootings that have killed four or more people. Many of the deadliest shootings have occurred within the past few years.

1,194 189 The number of people in the U.S. who have been killed during mass shootings.

There have already been 51 deaths this year.

The number of children or teenagers in the U.S. who have been killed during mass shootings.

The youngest victim was 8 months old.

169 315 The number of shooters involved. All but three were male, and 95 of them died at or near the scene of the shooting.

At least 175 were obtained legally and 59 illegally.

It’s unclear how 81 guns were acquired.

President Trump orders flags at half-staff in remembrance of victims

JOHN MINCHILLO (AP)

The author’s ideology is so aligned with the president’s that he decided to conclude the manifesto by clarifying that his views predate Trump’s 2016 campaign and arguing that blaming him would amount to “fake news,” another Trump phrase.

The extent to which the El Paso shooter was motivated by the president’s words will be fiercely debated in the days to come, and could be answered by the investigation. But some Democrats on Sunday said Trump’s demagoguery makes him plainly culpable.

Beto O’Rourke, a former congressman from El Paso running for president, said on CNN: “He doesn’t just tolerate it; he encourages it, calling Mexican immigrants rapists and criminals, warning of an invasion at our border, seeking to ban all people of one religion. Folks are responding to this.”

Mick Mulvaney, the acting White House chief of staff, flatly dismissed the suggestion that Trump was to blame.

“Goodness gracious, is someone really blaming the president?

People are sick,” he said on NBC. FBI Director Christopher Wray testified last month that the bureau has seen a recent uptick in the number of domestic terrorism arrests, and that most involved some form of white supremacy.

But Trump has done little to vigorously confront this crisis.

“I want to say with more moral clarity that Donald Trump is responsible for this,” Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., said on CNN. “He is responsible because he is stoking fears and hatred and bigotry.

He is responsible because he is failing to condemn white supremacy, and seeing it as it is, which is responsible for such a significant amount of the terrorist attacks.”

MARK LAMBIE (THE EL PASO TIMES VIA AP)

POLITICS President Trump has relentlessly used his bully pulpit to decry Latino migration as “an invasion of our country.” He has demonized undocumented immigrants as “thugs” and “animals.” He has defended the detention of migrant children, hundreds of whom have been held in squalor. And he has warned that without a wall to prevent people from crossing the border from Mexico, America would no longer be America.

“How do you stop these people?

You can’t,” Trump lamented at a May rally in Panama City Beach, Fla. Someone in the crowd yelled back one idea: “Shoot them.” The audience cheered and Trump smiled. Shrugging off the suggestion, the president quipped, “Only in the Panhandle can you get away with that statement.”

On Saturday, a 21-year-old white man entered a shopping mall in El Paso, Texas — a vibrant border city visited daily by thousands of Mexicans — and allegedly decided to “shoot them.” Twenty people died and dozens were wounded.

After yet another mass murder, the question surrounding the president is no longer whether he will respond as other presidents once did, but whether his words contributed to the carnage.

Authorities in El Paso have not announced a motive in what they call an act of domestic terrorism, but at the center of their investigation is an anti-immigrant manifesto they believe the alleged shooter, Patrick Crusius, posted shortly before he opened fire.

Portions of the 2,300-word essay, titled “The Inconvenient Truth,” closely mirror Trump’s rhetoric, as well as the language of the white nationalist movement, including a warning about the “Hispanic invasion of Texas.”

Democrats say the president’s anti-immigrant stance played a role in the El Paso domestic terrorism attack

A gunman killed 20 people Saturday at a Walmart in El Paso, Texas.

A gunman killed 9 people Sunday at a nightlife hot spot in Dayton, Ohio.

Officials ‘considering’ hate crime charges

Police: Gunman was stopped in 30 seconds

EL PASO, TEXAS The attack on a Walmart in a shopping center in El Paso, Texas, on Saturday, during which a gunman killed 20 people and wounded dozens, is being viewed as a domestic terrorist attack, authorities said Sunday.

Federal authorities are “seriously considering” bringing hate crime charges in the case, John F. Bash, the U.S. attorney for the Western District of Texas, said. Those charges could carry the death penalty.

“We are treating it as a domestic terrorism case, and we’re going to do what we do to terrorists in this country,” Bash said. “Which is deliver swift and certain justice.”

About 20 minutes before the shooting started at an El Paso Walmart, a rambling screed was posted to an online message board saying the massacre was in response to an “invasion” of Hispanics coming across the southern U.S. border.

Titled “The Inconvenient Truth,” it railed against the dangers of mass immigration and warned that Hispanics will eventually take over the economy and government. The writer argued that attacking “low-security” targets was a way to “fight to reclaim my country from destruction.”

Investigators increasingly believe these are the words of 21-year-old suspect Patrick Crusius, who surrendered shortly after Saturday’s rampage, and they are looking at the writing as they consider whether to prosecute the attack as a hate crime.

What remains a mystery is why Crusius chose El Paso, which has figured prominently in the immigration debate, and a shopping complex just 5 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border.

The scene was a 10-hour drive and a world away from the life he lived growing up in a leafy, upper-middle-class suburb of Dallas. (THE WASHINGTON POST/AP)

DAYTON, OHIO A masked gunman in body armor opened fire early Sunday in a popular entertainment district in Dayton, Ohio, killing nine people, including his sister, and wounding dozens before he was quickly slain by police, officials said.

Connor Betts, 24, was armed with a .223-caliber rifle with magazines capable of holding at least 100 rounds of ammunition and was gunned down about 30 seconds after his rampage began about 1 a.m. in the historic Oregon District, said Police Chief Richard Biehl.

After squeezing off dozens of shots, he was killed at an entrance to a bar where people were taking cover, Biehl said, adding that had Betts gotten inside, the result would have been “catastrophic.”

Police have not identified a motive. Betts’ 22-year-old sister Megan was the youngest of the dead — all killed in a nightlife spot of bars, restaurants and

theaters that is considered a safe area downtown, police said.

The gunman was white and six of the nine killed were black, police said. Although they’ll investigate the possibility of a hate crime, they said the quickness of the rampage made any discrimination in the shooting seem unlikely.

They identified the other dead as Monica Brickhouse, 39; Nicholas Cumer, 25; Derrick Fudge, 57; Thomas McNichols, 25; Lois Oglesby, 27; Saeed Saleh, 38; Logan Turner, 30; and Beatrice N. Warren-Curtis, 36.

Mayor Nan Whaley said at least 27 more people were treated for injuries, and at least 15 of those have been released.

Several more were in serious or critical condition, hospital officials said at a news conference Sunday morning. Some suffered multiple gunshot wounds and others were injured as they fled, the officials said. DAN SEWELL AND JOHN MINCHILLO (AP)

Politicians took to cable TV and Twitter to react to the mass shootings, with Republicans offering prayers and condemnations of the violence without mentioning guns and Democrats going a step further to decry yet another missed opportunity to address the nation’s gun laws. (THE WASHINGTON POST/AP) “We have to find some reason for optimism and hope or else we consign ourselves to a future where nearly 40,000 people a year will lose their lives to gun violence, and I cannot accept that.” — Beto O’Rourke, a former Texas congressman who’s from El Paso, speaking after a forum for Democratic presidential candidates Saturday in Las Vegas “My heart is with everyone in El Paso struck by this unspeakable evil. … There are millions of people in Texas and across the country standing behind you.” — Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, tweeting Saturday “Enough is enough. The Republican Senate’s continued inaction dishonors our solemn duty to protect innocent men, women and children and end this epidemic once and for all.”

— House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., in a statement Saturday “Our nation mourns with those whose loved ones were murdered in the tragic shootings … and we share in the pain and suffering of all those who were injured in these two senseless attacks. We condemn these hateful and cowardly acts.” — President Trump, in a proclamation released by the White House on Sunday

Redskins RB Adrian Peterson

Pegula beats Giorgi for first WTA victory

Giants RB Saquon Barkley

Dedicated to running

NFC East teams have invested heavily in their ground games and defensive fronts NFL The NFC North was long known as the black-and-blue division, full of stout defenses and run-first offenses committed to grinding out long drives and bruising yards.

Now it’s stacked with star quarterbacks, part of a leaguewide obsession with the passing game.

The NFC East has gone in another direction. Welcome to the new black-and-blue division.

“It’s kind of the way it’s been built,” Redskins coach Jay Gruden said. “You look at the history of the NFC East, usually the team that runs the ball the best is the one that wins it, and the one that stops the run the best is the one that wins it.”

Teams across the division have invested heavily in their run games and loaded up on defense.

The Giants took Saquon Barkley with the No. 2 pick in the 2018 draft, and he was the NFL’s second-leading rusher as a rookie.

The Cowboys selected Ezekiel Elliott with the No. 4 pick in 2016, and he has led the league

in rushing twice in three years.

The Redskins added future Hall of Famer Adrian Peterson last year, and he ranked No. 8 in rushing. The Eagles traded for Jordan Howard, who rushed for more than 1,000 yards in two of his first three seasons, and will pair with second-round pick Miles Sanders.

“That’s smash-mouth football,” Redskins cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie said. “The game changes, you’ve got to change with it.”

The sources of the philosophies aren’t difficult to trace. The Giants are led by general manager Dave Gettleman, who built the Panthers into a Super Bowl team with a bruising run game and bulky defense.

Gruden wants a balanced scheme in Washington, which drafted running backs Derrius Guice in 2018 and Bryce Love, a Heisman Trophy finalist, this year. The Redskins jumped to a 6-3 record last season by running the ball and playing strong defense. Gruden’s roots can be

Run production lacking Despite being heavily committed to the run by investing in big-name backs, the NFC East teams weren’t among the league leaders in rushing yards per game last season. The Cowboys were the best rushing team in the division — ranking 10th in the NFL — but the Redskins (17th), Giants (24th) and Eagles (28th) all finished outside the top half of the league in rushing yards per game.

In rushing defense, though, the Cowboys (5th) and Eagles (7th) ranked in the top 10. (EXPRESS)

traced to his father, Jim, who coached running backs at Notre Dame and Indiana, and in the NFL with the 49ers.

While the league tweaks rules to benefit the passing game, the NFC East has moved in the opposite direction. Whether that has been a conscious decision or a product of draft position and coincidence, the change has predictably produced an emphasis on

stronger front sevens to stop all these backs.

The Redskins have clearly done so in taking Daron Payne, Jonathan Allen and Montez Sweat in the first round of the past three drafts. In addition, Washington added safety Landon Collins, who is adept at playing physically in the box.

The Eagles feature Fletcher Cox, Tim Jernigan, Brandon Graham and Vinny Curry up front.

The Giants traded away spaceeating defensive tackle Damon Harrison but have invested highdraft capital in Dexter Lawrence, B.J. Hill and Dalvin Tomlinson.

“We’re trying to match their aggressive nature with their offensive line in Dallas and the Giants and the Eagles,” Gruden said, “with our share of good players on defense. And conversely on offense, the same thing [with the offensive line] and having the running back stable that we have, we can be able to run the ball with great balance.”

Inside Saturday’s wacky 8th inning NATIONALS Dave Martinez needed someone, anyone, to pitch the eighth inning so he wouldn’t have to extend his bullpen further in a blowout.

The Nationals were down by seven runs. The team’s manager had already used three relievers and figured it best to put a position player on the Chase Field mound Saturday night.

It had been 17 years since utility man Gerardo Parra, 32, let a fastball fly out of his left hand.

And he learned, fast, how hard it is to locate pitches in the majors.

He pumped low-90s fastballs to five batters, walking four and giving up a single. Martinez visited him on the mound, 25 pitches and five runs into a dream gone wrong.

Parra was then relieved by second baseman Brian Dozier.

It was the first time in Nationals history that two position players pitched in the same game.

One of Dozier’s best friends, Arizona’s Eduardo Escobar, walked to the plate and laughed.

“What do you got?” Dozier recalled Escobar asking.

“You better get your foot

down,” Dozier shot back, indicating that high heat was coming.

His first pitch was way high.

His next one wound up in the second deck for Escobar’s second homer of the game.

Dozier, who gave up two runs while recording three outs, was heading to Escobar’s house for dinner after the game. Dozier expected to hear plenty about the 415-foot blast.

“I didn’t want to show off too much, because I didn’t want to end my career hitting ...” he joked. “If I start throwing 9596 [mph], I wouldn’t be a hitter anymore. So I was trying to keep my position player status going.”

He did that and then some in what turned into an 18-7 loss.

Lucy Lawless: A true fan of true crime STREAMING The next time you find yourself in a courtroom, look around.

There’s a chance you might spot Lucy Lawless there, too.

The actress is fascinated by trials and, on days when she’s not working, will often go to court as a member of the public. There you’ll find the onetime “Xena: Warrior Princess” star trying to look inconspicuous, soaking it all in.

“It just teaches you so much about life and your own society and justice and about yourself,” Lawless says. “It’s really important that we participate in the democracy. That’s a really good way to hold the justice system to the standards of the people.”

Lawless, 51, has attended a murder trial in her native New Zealand, jury selection for a grisly case in Louisiana and was even at Jeffrey Epstein’s bail hearing in New York last

9 p.m. Wednesday on Fox

Jason Priestley, Tori Spelling and the rest of the “Beverly Hills, 90210” gang play fictionalized versions of themselves in this sixepisode miniseries about the cast of the 1990s hit reuniting for a reboot.

2 AP AND GETTY IMAGES/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

The ‘My Life Is Murder’ star has sincere interest in the justice system

month when the financier faced sex trafficking charges. On that rainy day, she showed up bedraggled in flip-flops and watched Epstein “shamble in,” acting shaky.

“Sedate is not the right word,” she says. “It was somber. And methodical. And meticulous. And all over in 20 minutes.”

Lawless’ fascination with crime — she even will go so far as to call herself a “court ghoul” — has filtered into her latest project, the TV series “My Life Is Murder,” which premieres today on Acorn TV. Lawless plays Alexa Crowe, an ex-homicide detective who bakes bread, loves Crowded House, speaks German and corrects people’s grammar when she’s not chasing baddies. The character, who creator Claire Tonkin wrote with Lawless in mind, is unfiltered, sexy, funny and prone to giving unsolicited advice.

In a typical scene, a villain holding a knife orders Alexa to stand up. “Get up slow,” he snarls.

She responds calmly: “I think you’ll find ‘slowly’ is the adverb.”

‘BH90210’

Lucy Lawless, a true-crime obsessive who refers to herself as a “court ghoul,” plays an ex-homicide detective in Acorn TV’s “My Life Is Murder.”

Revisiting ‘Xena’ Lucy Lawless famously played the title character in “Xena: Warrior Princess.” Reflecting on the series, which aired from 1995 to 2001, she says: “It was about universal themes of the triumph of the human spirit: love, courage and, of course, hate and fear underneath that. The legacy is that it inspired, by some kind of alchemy, positive change in the lives of individuals.” M.K.

manager of Acorn TV, says Lawless’ new show continues the streaming service’s push for strong, relatable female leads.

“We love Lucy Lawless,” he says. “We love what she brings to the screen — her strength, her vivaciousness, her intelligence and her sense of humor. We think that ‘My Life Is Murder’ is the perfect vehicle to showcase all of that.”

The show, set in Melbourne, Australia, explores closed worlds — undertakers, models, escorts and even bicyclist enthusiasts nicknamed MAMILs (middleaged man in Lycra).

“I just want to give people a little psychic holiday from all the grim stuff,” Lawless says, “so they can recharge the batteries and go back out there and fight the good fight.” MARK KENNEDY (AP)

Geena Davis is a guest star in Season 3 of the 1980s-set series about the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling, who have moved on from their Los Angeles-filmed TV series and launched a live show in Las Vegas.

BOX OFFICE HAUL

The domestic box office take for “Fast & Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw,” according to studio estimates Sunday. The total was enough to end “The Lion King’s” two-week reign at No. 1 but was the smallest domestic debut for a “Fast & Furious” film since 2006’s “Tokyo Drift.” The movie did its largest damage abroad, grossing $120 million internationally despite not yet opening in China. “The Lion King” slid to second domestically, with $38.2 million.

John Legend looks into the camera and tells the tale of a show “unlike anything else on TV, except for several other TV shows.” A long list begins scrolling, starting with “Soul Train” and “Solid Gold” and moving on to … “The Crown” (Season 1).

The fake promo is part of the wickedly funny

mockumentary series “Sherman’s Showcase” (10 p.m.

Wednesdays on IFC). That’s also the title of the “black music/dance/entertainment” program that’s the subject of the spoof. And, of course, it has practically nothing in common with “The Crown.”

The eight-episode first season, which premiered last week, is co-produced by Legend and was created by “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon”

mockumentary feel, Legend and others (including a dancing robot) speak as talking heads about the dance show’s history since its 1972 launch. But the bulk of each episode consists of segments from the imaginary show. And real-life celebs like Ne-Yo, Common, Ray Parker Jr. and Tiffany Haddish drop by.

Salahuddin and Riddle have said the skits sprang from ideas they had for Fallon that were “too edgy for that audience.”

Which means Legend wasn’t exactly lying when he said “Sherman’s Showcase” is like nothing else you’ll see on TV.

Others pointed out how lucky Reed was to have a flattering bust that actually looked like him, recalling the creepy statue of soccer great Cristiano Ronaldo that went viral in 2017 for all the wrong reasons.

Tyson’s tweet saying 34 gun deaths in two days is relatively few compared to how many people statistically die from things like the flu (300) or car accidents (200) in a given 48-hour span. Smash Mouth, with lead singer Steve Harwell, above right, summed up the feelings of many Twitter users who thought Tyson, above left, was callous to tweet that less than a full day removed from two mass shootings. Others expressed frustration that America hasn’t taken meaningful action to reduce deaths from gun violence the way it has pursued research and policy changes that have proven to prevent and reduce deaths from influenza and car accidents.

TV personality Heidi Klum and musician Tom Kaulitz held a wedding ceremony with family and friends Saturday on a luxury yacht off the coast of Capri, Italy, according to People. The couple reportedly have been married since February, when they quietly tied the knot two months after getting engaged. Klum, who has four children, previously was married to stylist Ric Pipino and singer Seal. Klum, 46, and Kaulitz, 29, are the latest celebrity couple to have multiple ceremonies, after Joe Jonas and Sophie Turner also held two weddings earlier this year. (EXPRESS)
