Future Hoya gets huge gift EDUCATION On paper, everything was going well for Seth Owen. A valedictorian of a high school in Jacksonville, Fla., with a 4.16 grade-point average, the 18-year-old had been accepted to Georgetown University as part of its Class of 2022. But he had left his parents’ house in February after they had given him an ultimatum to attend their church, after years of disagreements related to his sexuality — Owen is gay — or move out, he told NBC News. And Georgetown’s financial aid package for him had been calculated based on what his family was expected to contribute, leaving him with a $20,000 gap to pay the tuition for his first year. “I started to cry because I realized there was no way that I could go to college,” Owen told NBC News. Luckily, a former teacher stepped in. Jane Martin, who teaches biology, set up a GoFundMe account to raise the money for Owen’s first year of tuition.

“Seth was just a kid that really stood out to me,” Martin told NBC News. “He was super ambitious and was always trying to go above and beyond to make sure he could be as successful as possible.” A month later, the account has wildly exceeded its goal, raising more than $139,000 as of Sunday. “After we had hit $2,000, Seth was just like, ‘I’m so surprised that people, like, actually care about me,’ ” Martin said.

He said the financial services office helped him enroll in a scholarship program that will enable him to attend in the fall, and study in the Walsh School of Foreign Service. A thank-you, for the generosity of the school and the donors, he said, “seems not to be enough.” “At the moment, I’m in the process of exploring the establishment of a scholarship to help LGBTQ+ scholars who find themselves in the circumstance I was in earlier this year,” Owen wrote, adding that he expected Georgetown’s resources to help. Seth Owen told NBC that he hopes to send a message to others like him. “I remember growing up and saying I had really strict religious parents, and people would brush it off,” he said. “If someone were to say that to me today, I would sit down, and I would ask them, ‘What’s going on? What’s going on at home? What’s happening? What kind of messages are being preached in your church?’ ”

A crab conspiracy in Virginia
TRANSPORTATION
Fla. man pleads guilty to faking concrete records
VIRGINIA Few things say local like the Chesapeake blue crab. It has scuttled its way into Maryland’s tourism slogan and is part of the region’s signature dish, proudly touted as a taste of the Bay in an era when “eat local” has become the mantra of foodies. But a few years ago, a tipster reached out to authorities with an unsavory allegation: A major Virginia seafood supplier was selling packages of premium Chesapeake blue crab meat cut with cheaper foreign crab. It wasn’t even the same species. In an unusual probe, federal agents fanned out across Virginia, Delaware and North Carolina, scooping up crab meat from Casey’s Seafood and sending it out for the type of DNA analysis more common in murder cases. The results would reveal the tip of what authorities say is a massive fraud worth millions of dollars, one so large it has shaken the food industry and raised questions about just how much of the iconic food labeled as local comes from the Chesapeake Bay. It is difficult to ascertain how widespread such problems are. A 2015 report by Oceana, an international nonprofit, found that nearly 40 percent of crab cakes it tested that were labeled as local in area restaurants contained imported meat.
LINDA DAVIDSON (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Company is accused of mixing foreign meat with Chesapeake blues
A 2015 study found that 40 percent of crab cakes labeled as local that were tested used imported meat.
“It’s a species that’s well loved around the area,” said Kimberly Warner, the senior scientist at Oceana who authored the report. “The thought that we’ve all been subject to this fraud when we are enjoying what we think is a local product really hits home with diners in this region and undercuts the watermen.” The cachet of Chesapeake blues and the limited supply allow stores and restaurants to charge a premium. Investigators said that higher price point may have provided incentive for Casey’s to cheat in the current case. James Casey, the company’s president, directed employees to remove foreign crab meat from packing containers and blend it

with meat from another processor before placing the meat in containers labeled “Product of the USA,” according to court documents. Casey, 74, has been charged
with violating the Lacey Act, a federal law on the labeling of fish and wildlife. He faces up to five years in prison if convicted. Casey’s attorney did not return requests for comment. Fraud has frustrated some crabbers. Jeff Gaetjen, fishmonger at BlackSalt Fish Market & Restaurant in D.C., said he works with the same suppliers to ensure he gets an authentic local product. He said customers can also take a few steps to do the same. “Always insist on fresh crab meat that’s not pasteurized,” Gaetjen said. “Go to a reputable fish store. Create a relationship with that person.” JUSTIN JOUVENAL (THE WASHINGTON POST)

local Press-focused museum stops selling the item after journalists’ outcry THE DISTRICT At the end of a week in which getting the White House to clarify whether it considers the news media “the enemy of the people” was a major story, Poynter made a revelation after visiting the Newseum’s website. The D.C. attraction “dedicated to the importance of a free press and the first amendment” was selling “You are very fake news” T-shirts.
Before abruptly reversing course on Saturday, the museum sold the T-shirts alongside Make America Great Again hats and other items that could appeal to supporters of President Trump, who popularized the term “fake news” and frequently battles with news outlets and reporters he says are unfair to him. It is against this tense backdrop that reporters reacted to the disclosure of the shirts for sale at the Newseum. Most were not amused.

By Saturday, the museum had reversed its stance, announcing in a statement that it “removed the ‘You Are Very Fake News’ T-shirts from the gift shop and online.” “We made a mistake and we apologize,” the statement said. “A free press is an essential part of our democracy and journalists are not the enemy of the people.” KEITH MCMILLAN AND CLEVE R.

Feds have shutdown plan Safety officials drew up secret strategy to close Metro if regulators say ‘substantial risk’ exists
‘Unite the Right’ won’t get own Metro trains
PETE MAROVICH (GETTY IMAGES)
METRORAIL The federal government has a plan for shutting down the entire Metro system that includes putting its own transit staff in the agency’s rail operations center and bringing in the Federal Railroad Administration for help should regulators deem there are significant safety risks that warrant such action. Federal safety officials would first have to determine a “substantial risk” exists, such as a serious defect in the system’s steel rails or a batch of faulty track circuits, or a dangerous mechanical problem affecting an entire series of rail cars. In other words, a showstopper of the variety that precipitated General Manager Paul Wiedefeld’s emergency daylong shutdown of the system in March 2016. Such a discovery would trigger a chain of events involving agencies from the National Security Council and the Federal Emergency Management Agency to the Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, culminating in the U.S. transportation secretary issuing the following order: “FTA Emergency Order 1X-X requires the Washington Metropolitan Area Transit Authority (WMATA) to indefinitely suspend all Metrorail revenue operations.” The government’s internal planning document, prepared by the Federal Transit Administration, has existed since December 2016, but it was never made public or shared with officials outside the Transportation Department — even in Metro. “We only became aware of its existence after The Washington
In March 2016, Metrorail shut down entirely for 29 hours to conduct emergency safety checks of electrical cables.
Post began asking about it,” Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said. The document, obtained by The Post through a Freedom of Information Act request, is a 22-page delineation of the transportation secretary’s authority over the Washington region’s subway, the only transit system in the country whose chronic safety problems have warranted a step-by-step plan to address the possibility of a federally mandated shutdown. But it could serve as a framework for responses to other transit systems if extreme action became necessary, said the FTA, which under legislation approved by Congress in 2012 has broad authority to take action in response to unsafe conditions at transit agencies across the United States. The FTA said the shutdown plan remains active. In the most extreme scenario — a rail system shutdown lasting 72 or more
FTA’s Metro mandates Since March of 2016, the FTA has issued several sweeping edicts related to Metro safety issues — including in May 2016, when it threatened to shut down all or parts of the system unless Metro took urgent action to ensure passenger safety. The threat followed Metro’s botched response to two smoke and fire incidents at the same station in one day. And this June, the FTA ordered the transit agency to retrofit all of its 7000-series rail cars with chain guards to address a safety issue where blind and visually impaired riders have fallen through the gap between cars.

Operations Control Center and areas across the system to monitor the agency’s response to an urgent problem. Those individuals would supplement a team of up to 30 FTA personnel responsible for conducting inspections, performing field work and overseeing Metro’s efforts to return the system to service. The FTA says officials developed the plan as a road map for carrying out a shutdown or restricting service in a “safe, timely and orderly manner.” Former U.S. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx said he nearly did shut down the system at the height of its safety crisis in 2016. But Wiedefeld’s daylong emergency shutdown for critical cable repairs and his yearlong SafeTrack plan gave federal officials confidence Metro was taking its chronic safety problems seriously. FAIZ SIDDIQUI (THE WASHINGTON POST)
METRORAIL Metro is no longer considering running separate trains for protesters participating in the Aug. 12 “Unite the Right” white nationalist rally in the District, the transit agency’s board chairman said Saturday. Metro Board Chairman Jack Evans had previously said that running separate trains was among the public safety options being weighed by officials. Word about the possibility of the service for rallygoers spread quickly Friday and Saturday, drawing condemnation from those who decried “special treatment” for white nationalist groups, which are focused on the goal of achieving a whitesonly state or the separation of whites from other groups. Evans, above, had said Metro was simply exploring every option to prevent violence between rally participants and counter-protesters. “We’re just trying to come up with potential solutions on how to keep everybody safe,” he said. The event is being organized by the group behind the rally in Charlottesville last summer that led to protests, violent clashes and the death of a counter-protester. Plans for the special trains were publicized by Metro’s largest union, Amalgamated Transit Union Local 689, which released a statement expressing outrage that Metro might provide “private” rail cars to “Unite the Right” participants.

Trump defends ’16 meeting POLITICS President Trump on Sunday offered his most definitive and clear public acknowledgment that his oldest son met with a Kremlin-aligned lawyer at Trump Tower during the 2016 campaign to “get information on an opponent,” defending the meeting as “totally legal and done all the time in politics.” It is, however, against the law for U.S. campaigns to receive donations or items of value from foreigners, and that June 2016 meeting between Donald Trump Jr. and Natalia Veselnitskaya is now a subject of special counsel Robert Mueller’s Russia probe. While “collusion” is not mentioned in U.S. criminal statutes, Mueller is investigating whether anyone associated with Trump coordinated with the Russians, which could result in criminal charges if they entered into a conspiracy to break the law, including through cyberhacking or interfering with the election. “Fake News reporting, a complete fabrication, that I am concerned about the meeting my wonderful son, Donald, had in Trump Tower,” the president wrote in one of several earlymorning tweets Sunday, many of which took aim at the media. “This was a meeting to get information on an opponent, totally legal and done all the time in politics — and it went nowhere.”

He concluded by further distancing himself from the meeting his son arranged, writing: “I did not know about it!” Trump was responding to a Washington Post report this weekend that although he does not think his eldest son intentionally broke the law, he is worried that Trump Jr. may have unintentionally stumbled into legal jeopardy and is embroiled in Mueller’s investigation largely because of his connection to the president. On Sunday, one of the president’s attorneys defended the 2016 meeting as something that would not have been illegal under any federal statute. “The question is: How would it be illegal?” Jay Sekulow asked on ABC’s “This Week,” suggesting
that there are no laws prohibiting campaign operatives from meeting and working with foreign agents. “Nobody’s pointed to one.” The Trump Tower meeting also included Trump’s son-inlaw, Jared Kushner, and his campaign chairman at the time, Paul Manafort, who is on trial over tax and bank fraud charges after being indicted by Mueller. Trump’s tweet, however, conflicts with a statement that Trump Jr. had released to The New York Times in July 2017, as the newspaper prepared to report about the meeting. In that statement, Trump Jr. had indicated that the meeting had been “primarily” about the issue of the adoption of Russian
children by Americans. Amid public uproar over the meeting, the president’s son was forced to release follow-up statements, ultimately acknowledging that the meeting’s true purpose had been to get dirt about Hillary Clinton from a lawyer he had been told was working for the Russian government. The Washington Post reported a few weeks later that Trump Jr.’s initial misleading statement had been “dictated” by Trump. The president’s attorneys at first denied Trump’s involvement in drafting the response to The Times, but months later, they agreed that the president had, in fact, been the author of the statement.

Six arrested after failed drone attack on Maduro Venezuelan president blames political foes for Saturday’s explosion CARACAS, VENEZUELA Investigators searched a blackened apartment building Sunday where witnesses described seeing a drone and then hearing a thunderous explosion in what President Nicolas Maduro called an assassination attempt by the embattled nation’s opposition. Authorities said they have arrested six people suspected in Saturday’s failed attack with two explosives-laden drones. Opposition leaders decried Maduro for broadly singling out his political opponents for the attack without providing evidence, and they warned he may use it to
further suppress those critical of his government at a time of a crippling economic and humanitarian Maduro crisis. The government denounced the attack as an attempt to kill not only Maduro but an entire rank of the government’s top leadership that was standing beside him on a platform to celebrate the National Guard’s 81st anniversary. As is often the case in Venezuela, accounts of exactly what happened remained murky. Government officials offered few new details, saying only that the incident involved two drones, one of which crashed into an apartment building two blocks from where Maduro was speaking.

Maduro, a deeply unpopular president who was recently elected to a new term in an internationally condemned vote, later gave an impassioned retelling of the event. “This was an attempt to kill me,” he said. Maduro said the “far right,” working in coordination with detractors in Bogota and Miami, including Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, were responsible. Colombia’s government has vehemently denied that Santos had any involvement A little-known group calling itself Soldiers in T-shirts claimed responsibility for the attack.

In the decades-long war over milk — with cow’s milk on one side and the people who make an array of plant- and nut-based drinks on the other — this is as close to consorting with the enemy as it gets. The manufacturer of a brand of almond milk has announced a recall for what some would call sacrilege: Cow’s milk got into their almond milk. The recall affects nearly 150,000 half-gallons of Almond Breeze almond milk shipped to wholesalers in 28 states, according to the Food and Drug Administration. The mix-up was a result of an employee error. One person with a lactose allergy was sickened by the milk. (TWP)

New heat records were set in 26 places around Portugal. The hot, dusty conditions across the Iberian Peninsula are the result of a mass of hot air from Africa and have increased the risk of forest fires. Over 700 firefighters were still battling a forest fire near Monchique in the southern Algarve region, a popular tourist destination.

Quake kills 39 on Indonesia’s Lombok island LOMBOK, INDONESIA A powerful earthquake struck the Indonesian tourist island of Lombok on Sunday, killing at least 39 people and shaking neighboring Bali, one week after another quake on Lombok killed more than a dozen. The latest quake, which triggered a brief tsunami warning, damaged buildings as far away as Denpasar on Bali, authorities said. Video showed screaming people running in panic from houses in a Bali neighborhood and vehicles rocking. On Lombok, soldiers and other rescuers carried injured people on stretchers and carpets to an evacuation center. Muhammad Rum, head of the disaster management agency in West Nusa Tenggara province, which includes Lombok, told Indonesian TV the death toll had risen to 39. The quake, recorded at magnitude 7.0 by the U.S. Geological Survey, struck early Sunday evening at a depth of 6 miles in the northern part of Lombok. The island was already reeling from a magnitude 6.4 quake on July 29, which killed 16 people. Indonesia is prone to earthquakes due to its location on the Pacific “Ring of Fire,” an arc of volcanoes and fault lines in the Pacific Basin. In December 2004, a massive magnitude 9.1 earthquake off Sumatra island triggered a tsunami that killed 230,000 people in a dozen countries. ROS IDIN AND ALI KOTARUMALOS (AP)

FLIMS, SWITZERLAND Determining why a vintage plane crashed in the Swiss Alps will be challenging since the 79-yearold aircraft did not have black boxes and was traveling in an area without frequent radar readings when it plunged into a mountain, killing all 20 people on board, investigators said Sunday. The Junkers Ju-52 plane, operated by Swiss company JuAir, moved at a near-vertical angle before it hit the Piz Segnas mountain while carrying 17 passengers and three crew members, police and the head

Italian-speaking Ticino region. It crashed shortly before 5 p.m. Saturday, less than 50 minutes after taking off from Locarno’s Magadino airfield. The plane had two pilots. Police said they have not found any evidence a distress call was made before it crashed. Photos released by Graubuenden canton (state) police showed the crumpled wreckage of the plane. Only its upside-down tail appeared more or less intact. “We can assume that the aircraft hit the ground near-vertically and at relatively high speed,” Daniel Knecht of the Swiss Transportation Safety Investigation Board said Sunday at a news conference in Flims.

Alcohol’s blurred lines Is a drink or two a day good for you? A top expert says the honest answer is ‘I don’t know.’ HEALTH Research on alcohol consumption is in a pickle. There’s no question that pounding one drink after another is bad for your health. Things get murkier when it comes to “moderate” drinking. The alcohol industry has long embraced the notion that alcohol in moderation not only won’t harm you but is actually good for you. Many studies have shown that people who drink alcohol in moderation have lower rates of heart disease than people who abstain or who drink heavily. But the evidence is stubbornly ambiguous. As reported in The Lancet this year, a survey of the health of nearly 600,000 drinkers in 19 countries found that very moderate drinking — about one drink a day — lowers the rate of certain kinds of heart attacks but raises the risk of other cardiovascular problems. There’s no net benefit in life expectancy, the study found. Alcohol research is notoriously bedeviled by what are called “confounding effects.” The most obvious is that the non-drinking population includes people who can’t drink because of health problems. Meanwhile, healthy people feel free to drink. This can create a misleading impression of cause and effect. “People who drink moderately are healthier than people who don’t drink. But that doesn’t mean the drinking caused them to be healthier,” says University of Minnesota social epidemiologist Toben Nelson. This issue was supposed to be clarified by the 10-year, $100 million Moderate Alcohol and Cardiovascular Health trial, which started to enroll
A major study on the health effects of alcohol consumption was canceled after being deemed not credible.

participants this year. It would have looked at 7,800 people on multiple continents, all older than 50 and at risk for heart disease. Teetotalers and heavy drinkers would have been ineligible to participate. The volunteers would have been randomly assigned into two groups, one that consumed a single alcoholic drink every day for six years and one that abstained from alcohol every day for six years. The goal was to see whether drinking a little bit lowered the rate of heart disease. But the National Institutes of Health terminated the project on June 15, saying the trial’s results would not be viewed as credible. The majority of the funding for the study was to have come from the alcohol industry, funneled
How countries differ Different countries have different guidelines for moderate drinking. Britain does not issue distinct standards for men and women. A study published this year in The Lancet showed that life expectancy begins to drop for both men and women if they drink more than about 100 grams of alcohol a week (about seven 12-ounce beers). The U.S. guidelines take into account the fact that men are larger than women, on average, and have more water as a fraction of their body mass. (TWP)

participants, and it didn’t last long enough, said Michael Lauer, a cardiologist and deputy director for extramural research at NIH. The collapse of the trial left researchers where they’ve been for years, said Michael Holmes, a University of Oxford epidemiologist: “We’re at an impasse.” Alcohol consumption is included in the U.S. dietary guidelines, which say that alcohol can be consumed safely in moderation. That’s defined as no more than two drinks a day for a man and one a day for a woman (zero if pregnant). But two-thirds of drinkers fail to drink moderately, says Robert Brewer, head of the CDC’s alcohol program. “We think of the dietary guidelines on alcohol as aspirational,” he said. “Current compliance with the dietary guidelines is poor.” Among the scientists who argue that moderate drinking provides a health benefit is epidemiologist R. Curtis Ellison of the Boston University School of Medicine. He says drinkers should drink a little bit every day, without any days off, because alcohol makes blood platelets less sticky and keeps other clotting factors low. In the opposite camp is Holmes, who led a 2014 study that found no benefit. “The burden of evidence is toward alcohol having a detrimental effect on heart disease, even in small quantities,” he said. Nelson said he doesn’t think the drink-a-day riddle is “a worthwhile scientific question to pursue.” Such research might show a benefit, he said, but society doesn’t have a compelling need to get people who don’t drink to start drinking. It’s more important, he said, to persuade heavy drinkers to moderate. Lauer said that when patients ask him if moderate drinking is good for them, he can only answer, “I don’t know.”
In November 2016, Michiganborn martial artist and action film star Steven Seagal visited Russian President Vladimir Putin at the Kremlin to receive a gift: his very own Russian passport. On Saturday, Russia honored Seagal again, this time with a position as a special envoy to the United States. In a Facebook post, the Russian Foreign Ministry announced that Seagal has been appointed to a new role, which will apparently be unpaid. His responsibility will be to “facilitate relations between Russia and the United States in the humanitarian field, including cooperation in culture, arts, public and youth exchanges.” Seagal’s grandmother was born in Russia, and he and Putin share a passion for martial arts. But Seagal has faced criticism over the friendship: He has praised Putin’s annexation of Crimea, for example, and last year, Kiev banned him from Ukraine for five years, saying he’d “committed socially dangerous actions” that could threaten Ukraine’s security. In 2015, BuzzFeed News reported that two years earlier, Putin had suggested to President Barack Obama that he could make Seagal the honorary Russian consul to California and Arizona. “Our reaction was, ‘You’ve got to be kidding,’“ a U.S. official told BuzzFeed, referring to the offer.

Redskins defensive end Jonathan Allen said he has felt 100 percent healthy since March or April.
DISTRICT DOUBLE
AP
Allen’s goal for year two: Dominate REDSKINS Dominate has become Jonathan Allen’s favorite word. The second-year defensive lineman seems to say it an awful lot during training camp. The plan for the upcoming season is clear after he missed all but five games of his rookie year due to a Lisfranc injury. “For me it’s just to dominate and be more consistent,” Allen said. “I feel like I was — before I got hurt — I was playing at a pretty high level. But I want to be able to take that to the next level and be able to play like that every week, every game, and not have a good game or just an OK game. I want to be able to try to dominate every opponent, every snap, every game.” Allen started all five games in which he played, posting 10 tackles and a sack while immediately improving Washington’s defensive line. The Redskins allowed
fewer than 100 yards rushing in four of those five games before devolving into the NFL’s worst run defense without him. Allen said he got back to 100 percent healthy around March or April, and he has been tough to block during camp. As a rookie, the No. 17 overall pick of the 2017 draft leaned on natural ability. Now he’s focused more on the details of his craft. Allen said “bending the corner” is a big part of that. “Being able to become more skinny on the edge, really just trying to take in all the little things that I really wasn’t able to do last year just because I was so caught up in the moment,” Allen said of his goals. “Really just trying to get a grasp on the playbook, the scheme, the technique.” Coach Jay Gruden said Allen has a combination of “great hands” and “great strength,”

making him difficult to block in the run game, which in turn helps the linebackers run free to the ball. Gruden is adamant that Allen
can excel as a pass rusher as well. “We have very high expectations for Jonathan,” Gruden said. “He is an excellent football player without a doubt. He’s not a one-dimensional player at all. I have no worries about Jonathan; the only thing is we just have to keep him on the field. He is going to be a great player.” There’s hope that Allen’s growth, plus the addition of 2018 No. 13 pick Daron Payne, will address the run-game issues. Third-year lineman Matt Ioannidis, who is playing through a case of turf toe, has lined up opposite Allen for much of camp and has had a strong showing as well. KARREM COPELAND (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Roark helps Nats stay on right track NATIONALS 2, REDS 1 When Kelvin Herrera caught Joey Votto looking to end the Nationals’ 2-1 win over the Reds on Sunday in Washington, he did not roar nor stomp. He slapped his glove and walked away. These wins must become routine now. That change-up gave the Nats a series win. Sunday’s victory felt especially important given that Washington will begin a four-game series with the Braves on Tuesday. The Nationals have won four of five games since the trade deadline, eight of their past 11. They are three games over .500 for the first time since June 30 but trail Philadelphia by six games in the NL East. On Sunday, Nationals starter Tanner Roark showed he has definitively recovered his top form. Roark, 31, pitched seven
innings of one-run ball, showing good movement on his twoseamer and working secondary stuff for strikes. W hen the Reds h it four straight singles in the fourth — the kind of inning that caused his starts to unravel this season — he retired three straight with the bases loaded to preserve a 2-1 lead. Over his last three starts, he has a 0.82 ERA while striking out 20 batters and walking one. In the second inning, catcher Matt Wieters hit his first home run since April off Luis Castillo to give the Nationals a lead. An inning later, Bryce Harper’s double scored Adam Eaton. Harper is 13-for-29 (.448) with seven walks in his last nine games. He’s raised his average from .214 to .234 since the All-Star break. CHELSEA JANES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Dawkins addresses mental health
Inside linebacker Ray Lewis, an eight-time AllPro who played 17 seasons for the Ravens and won two Super Bowls, delivered a 33-minute speech that felt like a sermon. He never specified any individual or party, but focused on a theme of unity. “Our country needs real leaders,” Lewis said. “… We need people willing to fight for what is good and what is right.” He went on to ask, “How about stopping our kids from dying in schools ? … How about helping our neighbors that can’t afford their medicine.”
Wide receiver Randy Moss, the 1998 offensive rookie of the year with the Vikings who ranks second all-time in touchdown catches, made his statement with an inscribed necktie. Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Freddie Gray, Sandra Bland and Trayvon Martin were among the 13 names representing black victims of police violence — most killed in confrontations with officers — visible on Moss’ chest. After the ceremony, Moss said on NFL Network he wanted “to let these families know that they’re not alone.”
Safety Brian Dawkins, the leader of an Eagles defense that made four straight NFC title games and one Super Bowl, cried during a powerful speech in which he referenced his battle with depression and suicidal thoughts while encouraging others not to give up. “There’s a purpose for my pain,” he said. “I have grown leaps and bounds because of the things I went through. For those going through this now, there is hope on the other side. Keep moving, keep pushing through.”

Cavallari is done being your villain
Season 4 of the prequel series opens with lawyer Jimmy McGill (Bob Odenkirk) mourning the death of his brother, Chuck (Michael McKean), as the narrative creeps ever closer to the age of “Breaking Bad.”
2 ‘The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society’ Friday on Netflix
NBC
TELEVISION Kristin Cavallari was 17 years old when casting directors showed up at her high school in hopes of creating something called a “docu-soap,” a new subgenre in the early days of reality television. Producers spent weeks at Laguna Beach High School in Southern California before they stumbled across Cavallari, then an outspoken junior. When “Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County” debuted in September 2004, post-“Real World” but pre-“Real Housewives,” Cavallari was branded as the show’s “bad girl.” Thanks to her tumultuous relationship with boyfriend Stephen Colletti and feuds with classmates, Cavallari had the mind-bending experience of becoming one of our culture’s first reality TV villains when she was barely old enough to have a driver’s license.
“I didn’t look at myself as a star. I looked at it more like, ‘Everybody hates me,’ ” Cavallari, now 31, says during a recent interview in Nashville. She lives there with her husband, former NFL quarterback Jay Cutler, and their three children. “That was really tough for me, being so young.” Now, she’s the star and executive producer of “Very Cavallari,” which airs Sunday nights on E! and chronicles her adventures as she opens a store in Nashville for her lifestyle brand, Uncommon James. She wants her fans to see the grown-up version of herself, the working mom who runs her own business. “Do I want to be the villain? No. Because I’m a mom, I’m a wife, and I just don’t think that’s who I am,” Cavallari said. “I don’t think it ever was the only side to me. I think that was the one side that they decided to show.” Cavallari, who had worked with E! on a short-lived talk show and red carpet coverage, was in talks for a long time about her own reality series. When she

Kristin Cavallari wants to shake the villainous image she took on early in her career as a reality TV star. “I just don’t think that’s who I am,” she says.

decided to open a store, it seemed like the perfect opportunity. “I think in a world where people don’t know what the truth is anymore, she has a very real sense of just being who she is,”
E! executive Amy IntrocasoDavis says. “Whether it’s good or bad, it’s the truth. I think that there’s something about her that is very, very real.” EMILY YAHR (THE WASHINGTON POST)

FX maps out ‘Fargo’ Season 4, two new miniseries
Chris Rock will star in the lead role for Season 4 of “Fargo,” FX announced Friday. Noah Hawley’s anthology series will shift to 1950 for the new season, with Rock playing the head of a Kansas City crime syndicate. The network also announced two new limited series Friday: “Shogun,” an adaptation of James Clavell’s 1975 novel, and “Devs,” a Nick Offerman-starring drama from “Annihilation” writer-director Alex Garland.

The dating show “Love Island” is an obsession in England, with 3.6 million viewers tuning in for last week’s Season 4 finale. Hulu is now streaming that season, along with the earlier cycles, and viewers (and the media) are buzzing about the show. There’s even widespread talk of a U.S. version.
The premise is very “Bachelor in Paradise”: Five guys and five gals arrive at a villa on the Spanish island of Mallorca and pair up. The women parade in butt-baring bikinis. The men show off their abs. The couples share beds (sometimes platonically, sometimes not). Newcomers stop by, the singletons swap partners, rejectees are kicked off. And the public votes for its favorite couple, which wins 50,000 pounds — about $65,000.

First-class trash: U.K. hit ‘Love Island’ is a romp
The singles on “Love Island” engage in your standard dating show shenanigans, but the U.K. show has nonetheless turned into a crossover hit.
Why is this formulaic show a smash? The Economist opines that, for U.K. viewers, the fact that the contestants aren’t all from London is key, as “it looks

attracted by the Britishness of it all. In a Harry Potter shoutout, ejectees are #muggledoff. Dani the barmaid declaims, “Romeo, Romeo, where art thou, Romeo?” — although I assume she knows things didn’t turn out so well for Juliet and her swain. In addition to the elevated language, the show set behavioral standards for its 2018 cycle, including no drunken sex. So maybe that’s why “Love Island” is a hit on both sides of the pond: It’s a TV dating show that manages to be trashy, yet a tad classy! Read Marc’s previous columns at washingtonpost.com/muse

“The Melania Trump tour of the school LeBron James just opened is going to be epic! (If it happens.)” @EDLAVACNN, tweeting after Melania
Trump broke with her husband’s harsh criticism of LeBron James. President Trump tweeted Friday that CNN’s Don Lemon, who interviewed James, ”made LeBron look smart, which isn’t easy to do.” Melania’s office later issued a statement expressing her interest in visiting the I Promise School that James opened in Akron, Ohio. “LeBron James is working to do good things on behalf of our next generation,” the statement said.
“Xi should embrace it. Teddy Roosevelt was compared to a bear. Now they’re all ‘teddy bears.’ ” @CHRISTYANDK, tweeting in response to news from
The Hollywood Reporter that the Disney film “Christopher Robin” will not be released in China. A source told THR that the ban is because the film features Winnie-the-Pooh as a character. China has cracked down on images of Winnie-the-Pooh in the past after a popular meme compared the Chinese leader Xi Jinping to the fictional bear. China blocked HBO in June after comedian John Oliver made fun of the Xi/Pooh meme. “It’s a miracle The Onion manages to survive when stuff like this is real news,” @HarshilShah1910 tweeted.
“Allow me to be the first to offer my thoughts and prayers.” @PAPPINESS, tweeting after the NRA said it may “be unable to exist” due to financial issues stemming from a legal case in the state of New York. The declaration was made in a court filing and reported on by Rolling Stone. It prompted some to send the organization “thoughts and prayers” in reference to phrase that many NRA supporters deploy after an incident of gun violence. @ChelseaHandler tweeted: “Maybe [the NRA] could ask some of the Republicans they donated millions to for a loan.”
