Man discovers new way a burst condom can get him in trouble

Man faces a life term of being confused with ‘Pharma Bro’

A prosecutor in Monroe County, Pa., said a popping sound thwarted a man’s attempt to cheat on a court-ordered drug test. The prosecutor said the popping noise was from Daryl Anthony Koger, 21, using scissors to cut open a condom he had filled with clean urine. Authorities said Koger sneaked the urine-filled condom into a probation office July 31 so he could submit the clean sample and pass a court-ordered drug test. (AP)

A defendant in a money laundering case has at least two things in common with 34-year-old “Pharma Bro” Martin Shkreli — the same name and the same judge. The other Martin Shkreli, 59, pleaded not guilty Friday in the same New York courtroom where, on the same day, the former pharmaceutical CEO was found guilty of securities fraud. The older Shkreli said he was glad to be less “famous” than his counterpart. (AP)

The District’s science star City’s only endangered species is shy and blind, but is having a moment THE DISTRICT Beneath the ground in a handful of locations in Rock Creek Park, not far from the swirl of an oblivious capital, lurks D.C.’s lone endangered species: the mysterious Hay’s Spring amphipod. Fully grown, they’re about a centimeter long. They live under wet, dead leaves. They are milky white, sightless and shy. They are not photogenic. “They look like tiny dead shrimp,” said David Culver, an environmental science professor at American University who

studies amphipods. Though Stygobromus hayi, as the endangered amphipod is affectionately known, lacks the majesty of other endangered species, such as the blue whale, it is the star of a scientific paper published this summer. The amphipod’s elusive qualities made it an ideal subject for study through environmental DNA, a technique for examining microbes in soil to locate very tiny critters. Environmental DNA, or “eDNA,” are little bits of ourselves we living creatures constantly emit into the world around us — strands of hair left on a comb, for example, or skin cells shed onto a computer keyboard. Not wishing to exterminate

The endangered Hay’s Spring amphipod was identified in D.C. in 1938.

“The fact that we can detect a small species like this, we can apply to other species around the world.” MATTHEW L. NIEMILLER, an

ecologist at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign and the lead author of a study that used eDNA to locate the mysterious Hay’s Spring amphipod around Rock Creek Park

page three Park — not rushing rivers, but wet spots where groundwater rises to the surface — looking for bits of Stygobromus hayi. They detected the creature at four springs, including one near the U.S. Park Police Station on Beach Drive, where the animal wasn’t found with traditional methods. The Hay’s Spring amphipod was discovered in 1938 on property belonging to the National Zoo, said Meagan Racey, a spokeswoman for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. They were found at additional sites along Rock Creek in subsequent decades and act as metaphorical canaries in the coal mine. As Washington’s recent record-setting deluge showed, storm water can be a big problem in a densely populated city. Runoff from roads can contain heavy metals that degrade the quality of soil in Rock Creek Park, especially when spewed from antiquated pipes. All that nasty stuff in the water can kill amphipods. The creatures helped spur a $1 million program to control storm-water runoff near the Carter Barron Amphitheatre. If they persist, that means efforts to keep pollution out of the park may be succeeding. “They’re very sensitive to water quality,” Racey said. “The fact that they exist here is good news.” JUSTIN WM.

Spare cash? Who has cash? Proliferation of plastic, money apps cuts into income of panhandlers

Death on beach shows danger of digging sand MARVIN JOSEPH (THE WASHINGTON POST)

THE DISTRICT John Sullivan wears a giant foam hat in the shape of a whale. It works well as a conversation starter when he panhandles on the corner of Wisconsin Avenue and M Street in Georgetown. But one hot afternoon in July, no one stops to ask Sullivan about the whale. And no one stops to drop a dollar in his pink plastic cup. Passing by, one young man in sunglasses turns and shrugs. “I don’t have any cash,” he says apologetically. That’s a refrain Sullivan has heard a lot lately. He has panhandled in the same spot for almost 20 years and has a good rapport with the locals, who call him “the whale man.” But in the past three years or so, more and more pedestrians have been telling him that they no longer carry paper bills or loose change. Sullivan is good-natured about it: “I’ll see you next time,” he says with a smile if a passerby claims to have nothing but a credit card. Lots of people actually do come back the next day with change, he says — but still, he takes in only half what he once did. Orlando Chase, who panhandles on the same corner as Sullivan, isn’t as patient as his friend. “They say they got credit cards,” he scoffs. “I gotta eat. I can’t eat with their credit cards.” A decade ago, you probably wouldn’t have thought to go out without at least $5 or $10 in your pocket. Nowadays, though, you can use credit cards just about anywhere — and a growing number of smartphone apps are letting us swap clumsy cash for simple swipes when paying a cab driver, tipping a delivery guy or even splitting a tab. It’s all very efficient. But for

John Sullivan, who is homeless, is known in Georgetown as “the whale man” because of his hat. He enjoys the interactions with passersby and his independence. But he says he sees more who say they don’t have any cash.

panhandlers and street vendors, all that efficiency translates into a whole lot less generosity. Within the next five to 10 years, the United States could become a “less-cash” or “cashlight” society. That’s the prediction of Harvard economist Kenneth S. Rogoff, who envisions a day when physical currency will be phased out of most legal transactions. A recent survey by Ipsos found that 38 percent of U.S. respondents would ditch cash completely if they could, while 34 percent report that they already rarely carry it. For panhandlers, who rely entirely on the real stuff, that means less income, period. In Franklin Square downtown, Carrie Evans hits up passersby for a little change. She gets meals at a women’s shelter, but panhandling brings in the money she might need for a bus fare, or a bottle of water. “A lot of people say they don’t have cash,” she says. “Everybody carries plastic.” In his book “The Curse of

Cash,” Rogoff suggests that a cashless society could provide heavily subsidized debit-card accounts and perhaps smartphones to low-income individuals. He notes that in Sweden, where less than a fifth of transactions are conducted with cash, some panhandlers already accept donations via mobile phones. But it’s hard to imagine some veterans of D.C.’s streets adjusting to such a system, which would require a bank account and a Square credit card processor, not to mention time, internet access and technological savvy. Chase is 60 years old and has panhandled

with a plastic cup for years: He had never heard of Square. As for Sullivan, the “whale man” wouldn’t deploy his smartphone in the course of panhandling. “If you got a phone, people think, how can a homeless person have that?” he says. “They think differently of you.” Why keep panhandling when it’s less lucrative these days? Sullivan plies his trade just a few blocks from the Georgetown Ministry Center’s shelter. He knows the staff, and he’ll accept a bottle of Gatorade from the shelter director, but never his offer of a place to sleep. He prefers to set his own schedule and earn his own money: It’s what he’s done for decades, and he’s not going to stop now. Even as panhandling becomes harder, he finds a certain joy in it. “People don’t owe you nothing,” he says. “It’s all about the love.” His regulars, at least, still usually have change for him — or if they don’t, they might buy him a sandwich.

71-year-old man found dead last week after falling into his La Plata, Md., pool while cleaning it

OCEAN CITY, MD. The death of a Texas woman found buried on a Maryland beach is highlighting the potential dangers of digging holes in the sand. The Daily Times reports that the danger is significant enough that beach patrols in Ocean City and Rehoboth Beach, Del., enforce a rule barring beachgoers from digging holes deeper than their knees. A 2007 study in the New England Journal of Medicine found collapsing sand holes caused 31 deaths over a 10-year period in the 12 states examined in the report. Thirty-year-old Ashley O’Connor of Plano, Texas, was found buried in the sand July 31 in Ocean City with only her arm sticking out. Police ruled her death an accident and say she ended up in a hole that collapsed around her on the beach around Second Street. Police said O’Connor got separated from her family about 2 a.m. Monday and walked onto the beach alone. She was later found in a hole covered by sand. Police say it’s not clear whether she fell into the hole or climbed in on her own. Officials didn’t know the exact depth of the hole, but said it was significant. Ocean City is one of the most popular beach resorts in the Mid-Atlantic area and draws visitors from the WashingtonBaltimore region and many other parts of the country. (AP/TWP)

D.C. officials must secure a site for a composting center.

D.C. aims to grow compost pickups City wants to distribute bins, provide curbside service within 5 years THE DISTRICT City planners envision a future in D.C. where every household is provided government-issued bins for organic waste alongside recycling and trash bins. A truck would pick up food and yard scraps at the curb once a week and transport them to a composting site inside the city limits. District officials estimate that with curbside pickup, about 148,000 tons of organic waste could be composted annually — about 60 percent of the food and yard waste generated in the city each year. As a bonus, it would create a nutrient-rich soil additive for growing food and plants. It’s part of a five-year composting plan that officials say could

contribute to an 80 percent reduction in the city’s waste by 2032. “We have a long way to go before we get there,” said Christopher Shorter, director of the D.C. Department of Public Works. “Ultimately, we are going to be a more environmentally friendly city because many more of our residents will be separating their food waste and reducing landfill, which is the ultimate goal.” The District still has to secure a site of about 10 to 20 acres that it can transform into a composting center. The site must be suitable to compost both yard debris and food scraps — a potentially pungent combination if nitrogen and carbon levels aren’t properly balanced during the composting. Shorter said the city is on track to begin rolling out the plan and delivering bins for organic waste in the next five years. PERRY STEIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Maryland State Police began issuing citations Monday for those traveling 12 mph or more above the posted 55 mph limit along the Capital Beltway near the Suitland Road bridge in Prince George’s County. Traveling 67 mph or more through the work zone will result in motorists being issued a $40 fine. The State Highway Administration installed speed cameras along the north and southbound lanes of Interstate 495 in Prince George’s County last month, warning motorists with signs about the potential fines they could incur by speeding through the work zone.

About 20 people were on board a moving Red Line train Sunday when gunshots rang out near the Silver Brown Spring station, leaving a teenager with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. Metro Transit Police on Monday announced the arrest of Jermaine Brown, 18, of Seat Pleasant, Md., who was taken into custody in Capitol Heights late Sunday and charged with first-degree assault.

N. Korea vows revenge against U.N. sanctions Pyongyang official says the entire U.S. mainland is within firing range

ROSLAN RAHMANA (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)

NATIONAL SECURITY North Korea vowed Monday to bolster its nuclear arsenal and gain revenge of a “thousand-fold” against the U.S. in response to tough U.N. sanctions imposed after Pyongyang’s recent intercontinental ballistic missile tests. The warning came two days after the U.N. Security Council unanimously approved new sanctions to punish North Korea, including a ban on coal and other exports. The ban could cost North Korea more than $1 billion. In a statement carried by the North’s state-run Korean Central News Agency, North Korea’s government said the sanctions were a “violent infringement of its sovereignty” that was caused by a “heinous U.S. plot to isolate and stifle” the country. “We will make the U.S. pay by a thousand-fold for all the heinous crimes it commits against the state and people of this country,” the statement said. The North said it would take an unspecified “resolute action of justice” and would never place its nuclear program on the negotiating table or “flinch an inch” from its push to strengthen its nuclear deterrence as long as U.S. hostility against North Korea persists. North Korean Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho made similar

Foreign Minister Ri Yong-ho said North Korea will never place its nuclear weapons on the negotiating table.

comments at an annual regional security conference Monday in Manila, the Philippines. He said that “under no circumstances” would it negotiate away its nuclear weapons, according to a transcript obtained by The Washington Post. The forum was closed to the press, so it could not be determined whether the speech was delivered as prepared and labeled on a copy given to reporters. In the printed version, Ri said the entire U.S. mainland is within firing range of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, North Korea’s official name. He said Pyongyang would use nuclear weapons against the U.S. or any other country that might join it in military action against North Korea. He also dismissed the new

U.N. sanctions as illegal. Lim Eul Chul, a North Korea expert at South Korea’s Kyungnam University, said the comments by the North demonstrate how angry it is over the sanctions, but that the country is not likely to launch a pre-emptive strike against the U.S. He said the North could still carry out further missile tests or a sixth atomic bomb test in the coming months under its broader timetable for weapons development. Analysts say that North Korea, already under numerous U.N. and other international sanctions, will feel some pain from the new sanctions but is not likely to return to disarmament negotiations anytime soon because of them.

Australia’s ruling party refuses to OK vote on bill to recognize gay marriage

Teenager’s feet left bloodied by sea creatures MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA A teenager who went for a swim at a Melbourne beach and emerged with his feet covered in blood has stumped experts. Sam Kanizay’s legs felt sore after playing football Saturday, so he decided to soak them at the beach. About 30 minutes later, the 16-year-old walked out of the water with his feet and ankles covered in what looked like hundreds of little pin holes that were bleeding profusely. Upon returning home, his parents took him to a hospital. Kanizay’s father, Jarrod, said hospital staff had no idea what kind of creature could have caused the injuries. So Jarrod went back to the beach the following night with a pool net full of meat and captured the animals he believes could have been responsible. He took a video of dozens of the tiny bug-like creatures chomping on the meat. Jeff Weir, executive director of the Dolphin Research Institute in Australia, believes the teen may have been attacked by crustaceans called amphipods, which eat decomposing plant and animal scraps. But Thomas Cribb, a parasite expert from the University of Queensland, said it would be very unusual for amphipods to cause such extensive bleeding. Marine expert Michael Brown believes the bugs could be jellyfish larvae. “I’ve never seen anything like this,” he said. Sam was still hospitalized Monday. (AP)

Court to Netanyahu: Show logs of calls with Adelson

U.S. to respond to Russia’s expulsion demand by Sept. 1

The manufacturer of a ride that malfunctioned at the Ohio State Fair last month said corrosion led to the “catastrophic failure” in which an 18-year-old was killed and seven others were injured as a row of seats smashed into a metal structural support beam. The Fire Ball, a ride that swoops like a pendulum and swings in a circle, collapsed July 26 at the state fair in Columbus. The manufacturer, KMG, said Sunday that after an inspection of the ride, which was 18 years old, it was determined that “excessive corrosion on the interior of the gondola support beam” reduced the beam’s thickness.

Israel’s Supreme Court ruled Monday that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu must reveal phone call logs with U.S. casino mogul Sheldon Adelson, and a former editor of his free newspaper in Israel, as police press ahead with investigations into corruption cases involving the prime minister. The decision Monday came after an appeal by an investigative journalist. Netanyahu backer Adelson owns the pro-government daily Israel Hayom. Netanyahu allegedly tried to strike a deal that would have weakened Israel Hayom in exchange for more favorable coverage of him from the paper’s main competitor. (AP)

A foreign workers’ haven President urges nation to ‘hire American,’ but his club fails that test POLITICS President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club needs to hire 35 waiters for this winter’s social season in Palm Beach, Fla. Last month, on page C8 of The Palm Beach Post, the club placed a help-wanted notice in classifiedad shorthand that said: “3 mos recent & verifiable exp in fine dining/country club. No tips.” The ad gave no email address or phone number. “Apply by fax,” it said. The ad also provided a mailing address. It ran twice. This was an underwhelming way to attract local job-seekers. But that wasn’t the point. The ads were actually part of Mara-Lago’s efforts to hire foreign workers for those 35 jobs. A week before the ads ran, the club asked the Labor Department for permission to hire 70 temporary workers from overseas, government records show. Beside the waiters, it sought 20 cooks and 15 housekeepers, slightly more than it hired last year. Two years ago, Jeannie Coleman of West Palm Beach, across

the bridge from Mar-a-Lago, applied for a housekeeping job there but did not get the position. That year, Mar-a-Lago told the government it needed to hire 20 foreign workers as housekeepers. To get visas for those workers, Mar-a-Lago, like other businesses that rely on temporary employees each year, must first take legally mandated steps seeking U.S. workers. That includes placing two ads in a newspaper. Typically, this attempt to recruit U.S. workers is a ritualized failure. Its outcome is usually a conclusion that there are no qualified Americans to hire, justifying the need for the government to issue the visas. In the past few days, that ritual began again at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s membersonly club that opens every winter and is his frequent destination. The club’s request for visas stood out because it came in the middle of “Made in America Week” at the White House. Even as Trump urged other U.S. businesses to “hire American,” his business was gathering evidence to prove that it couldn’t. Officials at Mar-a-Lago and at the Trump Organization did not respond to questions for this article. Neither did a White House spokeswoman.

Missed opportunity? To immigration critics who have welcomed President Trump’s calls for tightened border restrictions, Mar-aLago presents a missed opportunity for him to lead by example. “Let wages go up. Offer better benefits. More vacation time. Better working conditions,” said Steven Camarota of the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates for lower immigration levels. “We don’t have a shortage of this kind of workers. You just got to look harder.” (TWP)

During the presidential campaign, Trump defended his practice of using foreign workers at his club — even as he blamed immigrants for taking U.S. jobs and keeping wages low. “It’s very, very hard to get people,” he said. “But other hotels do the exact same thing.” The category of visas sought by Mar-a-Lago is called H-2B, and the visas are intended for workers doing temporary jobs in nonagricultural fields. The number is theoretically limited to 66,000 per year, although that cap is frequently lifted: This year, for instance, the Trump administration added 15,000 visas

after employers complained they couldn’t get the workers they need. The visas are common across the hospitality industry, where an influx of visitors for only a few months each year means businesses must find workers willing to take temporary — and, often, labor-intensive — jobs. In the past, Trump’s club has followed the same pattern of searching for — and not hiring — U.S. workers, instead opting for workers from Haiti and Romania, according to news reports. Coleman, the West Palm Beach woman who needed a job in 2015, got an interview for a housekeeping job, but heard nothing more. “I was very disappointed,” said Coleman, now 50, who works at a clothing store. “I had the qualifications. The interview went great. But they never even did the common courtesy to call me and tell me why I wasn’t hired.” This week, there is a jobs fair in Palm Beach, where big resorts can meet prospective employees. Will a Mar-a-Lago representative be there? At The Washington Post’s request, a job-placement center employee checked the list of attendees. Mar-a-Lago isn’t going. DAVID A. FAHRENTHOLD AND

POLITICS President Trump declared Monday that his political base is “bigger & stronger than ever before” despite recent polling — which he branded “fake” — that shows a drop-off in support. In a series of tweets from Bedminster, N.J., where Trump is on what aides describe as a 17-day “working vacation,” he ticked off a number of factors that he said have “driven the Trump base even closer together.” Among them: record stock market numbers, strong jobs reports, his Supreme Court pick this year and a backlash against “the Fake News Russian collusion story.” “Will never change!” Trump wrote on Twitter about the strength of his base. Trump has held a series of rallies to bolster support among his core backers in states he won last year — most recently in West Virginia last week. In addition, over the weekend, he posted a Facebook video that offers a newscast-style report from Trump Tower in New York with a favorable spin on the economy and a new Trump initiative on immigration. A poll last week from Quinnipiac University found that just 33 percent of voters overall approve of Trump’s job performance, a new low. Notably, support among white voters without a college degree — a key Trump demographic — had fallen off as well. JOHN

People hold a vigil in Hallsville, Texas, on Sunday after two Boy Scouts died.

3rd Scout dies after boat hits power line AVINGER, TEXAS A third Boy Scout died from injuries suffered when a sailboat struck an overhanging power line on a lake east of Dallas, an official with Texas Parks & Wildlife said Monday. The 11-year-old Scout died Monday at a hospital in Shreveport, La., Texas Parks & Wildlife spokesman Steve Lightfoot said. The boy was sailing in a catamaran Saturday with two older boys, one 17 and the other 16, when it struck the power line at Lake O’ the Pines near Avinger, Texas. Daniel Anderson, chief operating officer for the East Texas Boy Scouts of America, said a Scout leader reached the boat within minutes but the two older boys were already dead. Authorities have not released the names of the victims.

Anderson said the trio was just off shore when the catamaran struck the line operated by Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative. He said other Scouts were at a campsite on private land and it immediately became apparent to them that the three were in distress. Another boat nearby gathered the 11-year-old and took him to shore to an awaiting ambulance. “There’s literally hundreds of campouts like this every year in East Texas and nothing like this ever happens,” Anderson said. It wasn’t clear Monday why the power line was overhanging the water, in proximity to the watercraft. Rob Walker, general manager of Upshur Rural Electric Cooperative, said in a statement that the company is working to determine what happened. (AP)

CHICAGO Mayor Rahm Emanuel has taken his fight against President Trump’s immigration policies to court, with Chicago becoming one of the first cities Monday to sue the government over what many U.S. cities argue are illegal bids to withhold public safety grants from so-called sanctuary cities. The 46-page lawsuit was filed in U.S. District Court in Chicago, a day after Emanuel announced the litigation and said the city won’t “be blackmailed” into changing its values as a welcoming city. He argued it’s

2005, including $2.3 million last year that was used on police vehicles, radios and SWAT equipment. “These new conditions — which would give federal officials the power to enter city facilities and interrogate arrestees at will and would force the City to detain individuals longer than justified by probable cause, solely to permit federal officials to investigate their immigration status — are unauthorized and unconstitutional,” the city complaint read. Those grant amounts of money are relatively small, but Chicago leaders say they fear greater restrictions could be coming, so they hope to establish in court that such measures are illegal.

unconstitutional for a city “to be coerced on a policy.” It’s the latest round in a battle between several U.S. cities that opt to limit cooperation with federal government efforts to enforce immigration law and Trump administration officials, who say they don’t comply with federal laws. For Chicago, a first order of business now that the suit has been filed will be to ask a judge to put a freeze on the policy at least until the civil case plays out, said Edward Siskel, the head of City Hall’s legal department. That request for a preliminary injunction could be made within days. Chicago officials say there are new qualifications for a grant that requires cities to share information with U.S. immigration

Bashaud Breeland breaks up a pass intended for Josh Doctson during training camp.

TACKLING RULES

JOHN McDONNELL (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Defenders prepared to be fined

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

Rein in the rage: Breeland’s temper won’t help his play Cornerback Bashaud Breeland jammed Terrelle Pryor Sr. a little too aggressively during a simple walk-through practice at training camp Monday in Richmond. Contact is rare in the quarterspeed drill, so tempers escalated quickly before coach Jay Gruden tossed Breeland out of practice, relegating him to the sideline. The corner argued he was just bringing intensity, but his coach disagreed. Breeland then defended himself to tight end Jordan Reed and offensive tackle Trent Williams for

10 minutes while the latter tried to calm the corner down. Unfortunately, Breeland has spent the last two years playing not with intensity, but with rage. And rage ends careers prematurely. Former Redskins safety LaRon Landry was known for delivering bone-jarring hits and working out late into the night, but he didn’t last in the league past age 30. Defensive tackle Daryl Gardener, a first-round pick of the Dolphins who played for the Redskins in 2002, washed out of the league after he was arrested for fighting a fellow customer outside of a Colorado

restaurant in 2003, when he was with the Broncos. Football may be a modern gladiator sport, but it requires a measured temper. Players who can control their emotions last longest. Hall of Fame cornerback Darrell Green never relied on rage in his 20 seasons. I once saw Green trying to counsel Breeland in the locker room, but it was clear from his body language that Breeland didn’t want to hear the advice. After making NFL.com’s All-Rookie team in 2014, Breeland regressed in 2015. He was a little better last year, but criticism has made him bitter, luring him into responding to Twitter trolls. Talk about a waste of energy. Now Breeland is seeking out conflict in a training camp walk-through. Multiple teammates eventually tried to calm him down, including DeAngelo Hall, who should understand. Hall used to be a hothead, too. If there was a scuffle, he was

usually involved, including once when he ventured to the opposing team’s bench and accused a coach of pushing him. Maybe the years have mellowed Hall, 33. Maybe his recent injuries have given him perspective, or being a father to six kids has given him patience. Either way, Hall’s current demeanor — confident and chill — is what Breeland should adopt. Hall’s career might end after 14 years when final roster cuts are due Sept. 2. Whenever it is, Hall will exit as a positive example. Breeland is set to become a free agent after the season. Whether the Redskins re-sign him will depend on how he handles himself during trying times. Passionate players go on to long careers. Enraged ones become shooting stars who fade away.

NFL officials visited Redskins camp Sunday to discuss the league’s areas of emphasis this season regarding roughing the passer and unnecessary roughness. A senior official said that when defenders try to tackle the quarterback below the waist, they can use only their arms, and not their shoulders. In response to the rules, cornerback Josh Norman, below, and linebacker Zach Brown said they’re prepared to draw fines. “I don’t know how you’re going to play this game anymore,” Norman said. “I’m lost. I don’t even worry about it or anything. I just go. If that happens, so be it.” Brown said he didn’t want to hesitate. “Most of the times, I just go in there,” he said. “If I get fined, I get fined.” ined. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Taylor looks poised to start in the middle REDSKINS Ever since Mike Shanahan mandated a switch to the 3-4 defense in 2010, the nose tackle position has resembled a revolving door for the Redskins. Albert Haynesworth didn’t fit. An injury toppled Ma’ake Kemoeatu. Barry Cofield manned the post for three years, but an injury derailed him as well. Terrance Knighton made an impact in his lone season with Washington in 2015, but wasn’t consistent enough for the team to re-sign him. And the Redskins went with a committee last season, with Ziggy Hood and Cullen Jenkins sharing the bulk of the load. Now undergoing another overhaul on the defensive line, Washington is once again looking for a starting nose tackle. Young players Joey Mbu and A.J. Francis offer intriguing potential. But it’s starting to look like the search could lead the Redskins to a mountain of a man whose NFL career once appeared very much in doubt. As training camp has progressed, Phil Taylor has looked more like the guy whom the Browns drafted 21st overall in 2011, and not the hobbled player that Cleveland, Denver and other

First-rounder derailed by injuries emerges as a force at nose tackle

At age 29, Phil Taylor, center, has risen to the top of the depth chart by impressing the Redskins in training camp with his power and agility.

teams wrote off after surgery on his right knee in 2014 and recurring injuries to the same knee in 2015 and 2016. Taylor (6 feet 3, 343 pounds) entered camp third on the depth chart, but he’s climbed to first while displaying great power, quickness and athleticism. He’s clogged run lanes and generated pressure on the quarterback during one-on-one battles while also taking on double-teams. On runs or screen passes to the outside, he has kept pace with linebackers in pursuit of ball carriers. “Phil is a big cat that can move, and that cannot be moved,” defensive coordinator Greg Manusky said with a laugh. “He’s doing a really nice job inside.”

Defensive line coach Jim Tomsula is impressed that Taylor, who got a $4.4 million signing bonus as a rookie, is still playing. “He doesn’t have to play football, so what does that tell you? He’s here for the right reasons.” Tomsula said. Taylor, 29, is expected to start the preseason opener Thursday at Baltimore, where he hopes to further prove himself to coaches. He’s avoided making any bold predictions of what kind of season he can have now that he’s finally healthy again. “I haven’t done anything yet, haven’t made the team yet,” he said. “I’m just taking it day by day and trying to get better as I go.” MIKE JONES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

can take a 60-day challenge in which trainers help then achieve their fitness goals. Niche gyms may be more successful at helping people build habits. “Places that are more boutique-type, where there’s more of a group dynamic, that’s much better for exercise adherence,” says Todd Miller, director of George Washington University’s Weight Management and Human Performance Laboratory. “It’s the experience. It’s the bonding that you have with other people in the class.” Scott Breault, chief marketing officer at Pure Barre, says relationships at the gym can improve retention: “They see the same people when they go, they link up afterward, they talk on social media and say, ‘Hey, when are you going to class?’ It becomes much more than just four walls and some equipment or instructors. It becomes, ‘This is a vital part of my life and keeps me happy.’ ” STEPHANIE KANOWITZ

The connection between lack of sleep and weight gain has been well established. But just how serious are the consequences? A new study in PLOS One explores the relationship between sleep duration and quantifiable factors: waist circumference, blood pressure, lipids, glucose and thyroid hormones. The study involved 1,615 people ages 19 to 65 in Great Britain. The most striking suggestion was that getting insufficient sleep may make you go up a clothing size. Those who slept an average of six hours each night had waist measurements about 1.2 inches more than those getting nine hours of sleep a night. Those getting less sleep also weighed more. The relationship between more sleep and smaller waists was nearly linear.

If cash incentives don’t encourage people to work out more, what will? TRENDS Have you ever thought, “You couldn’t pay me enough to go to the gym”? You’re not alone. When researchers offered new gym members $30, $60 or a gift worth about $30 for going to the gym nine times in six weeks, attendance increased only slightly, according to a recent study conducted by the National Bureau of Economic Research. Published in July, the eightmonth study separated 836 new members of a private gym in the Midwest into a control group and three incentive groups. On average, participants said they planned to exercise three times a week, and 43 percent said they had exercised on average one day or less per week in the prior year. “The hope would have been that by targeting this, you could especially capture some of the people who early on fall off and get them to keep going for longer,” says Justin Sydnor, one of the report’s authors and a professor in risk management and

insurance at the University of Wisconsin at Madison. But many participants didn’t go as often as they’d planned. Instead of three times, they went twice in the first week and were down to once a week by the end of the second month. A bigger sum wouldn’t have mattered, Sydnor says, because doubling the prize from $30 to $60 “didn’t really improve the trajectory at all.” More effective approaches may be based on social intervention, such as meeting a friend or trainer at the gym, or getting reminders to go. Equinox Fitness Clubs has been testing a chatbot feature within its app since April. When new members download the app, the bot asks about their fitness interests and goals, and the days and times they plan to work out. Using artificial intelligence, the bot recommends classes based on users’ answers and messages them when they haven’t been to the gym in a while. “People who are going through

fit+wellness Looking for the way out Q. I am looking to move

BEN CLAASSEN III (FOR EXPRESS)

away from a controlling relationship in the most seamless way possible. I know I need to leave but I am unsure about how to actually make this happen, how to move on without hurting anyone. NEED TO LEAVE

DR. ANDREA BONIOR | BAGGAGE CHECK

I can’t believe the stuff she believes Q. A good friend of mine is hog-wild into astrology, superstitions, the idea that if you visualize things hard enough you can make them happen, etc. It makes her seem less intelligent than she is, and I cringe when she is in larger groups talking about these things. I get embarrassed for her (or maybe of her?) when she is like this around others. SHAKING MY HEAD I can understand how cringeworthy this is — maybe it’s the Sagittarius in me — but you’re taking on too much mental responsibility for how your friend appears to others. You’ve embraced her for her other qualities, and you need not be defined by any given set of her beliefs; it’s not like she’s performing animal sacrifice. We tend to forget how

e vent hor i zon

diversity of viewpoints can be an asset in friendships. And as for worrying about what judgments people might make, she’s a grown-up and this is who she is. So, no need to co-sign on her advice about visualizing wads of cash, but no need to go out of your way to distance yourself or try to censor her either. Let her be, and everyone is free to make up their own minds.

Good for you. Of course you don’t want to hurt “anyone,” but the most important thing I can do in this space is convince you that it’s you that you should be most concerned with. I am not sure where you are in this process logistically, or how much physical help you may need, but it is so important for you to keep moving forward. You will likely have second thoughts, fear, guilt and sadness — all natural reactions — but don’t let them keep you stuck. Most people in controlling relationships have gotten all too used to worrying about the well-being of others at the expense of their own selves. So, enlist a support team that will consistently help you give yourself permission to put your own well-being first. Friends, family, co-workers, a therapist — the more solid, honest and trustworthy the connections, the better. Additional help can be found at thehotline.org. Send questions to Dr. Andrea Bonior at baggage@wpost .com. Andrea is a local clinical psychologist and author of “Psychology: Essential Thinkers, Classic Theories, and How They Inform Your World.”

‘Friends’ with new benefits JAY-Z’s ‘Moonlight’ goes beyond re-creating the sitcom with a black cast

Julie Klausner relishes being ‘Difficult’

TIDAL

PERSPECTIVE JAY-Z’s latest music video from “4:44” only features about a minute of his rapping. Instead, the video acts more as a meta-commentary on black representation in media and artistic ownership. Released Friday on Tidal (and out everywhere later this week), the video for “Moonlight” features some of the biggest rising stars in comedy re-enacting scenes from a “Friends” episode. Directed by “Master of None” co-creator Alan Yang, the video even remakes the opening to the NBC sitcom — using the song “Friends” by Whodini instead. Comedian Jerrod Carmichael (“The Carmichael Show”) plays Ross. Issa Rae of “Insecure” plays Rachel. Lil Rel Howery (“Get Out”) plays Joey, and Lakeith Stanfield (“Atlanta”) plays Chandler. Tessa Thompson (“Creed”) plays Monica, and Tiffany Haddish (“Girls Trip”) plays Phoebe. The actors are wearing almost exactly the same clothing as the characters in the 1996 “Friends” episode. The set looks the same. The shots are the same. When the cast takes a break, Carmichael chats offstage with comedian Hannibal Buress, who tells him what they’re shooting is “garbage and “it’s just episodes of ‘Seinfeld’ but with black people.” “It’s ‘Friends,’ ” Carmichael interjects, but Buress cuts him off: “Who asked for that?”

Issa Rae and Jerrod Carmichael are among the actors who re-create “Friends” for JAY-Z’s “Moonlight” music video.

“When they asked me to do it, I was like, all right, this is something subversive, something that would turn the culture on its head,” Carmichael says. “Well, you did a good job of subverting good comedy,” Buress says. “You gonna do black ‘Full House’ next? ‘Family Ties’? Why stop there?” Aside from Carmichael having this exchange — his acclaimed real-life show was canceled by NBC this year — the choice to remake “Friends” with an all-black cast is particularly poignant. Many viewed the comedy as a white version of Fox’s “Living Single,” which premiered a year before “Friends” and is also yea about six friends in New York abo

Backstory “Friends,” which debuted in 1994, quickly became a phenomenon. At the time, the creator and stars of “Living Single,” who are black, said their sitcom wasn’t getting the same attention that “Friends” was receiving. “You can’t deny the basic similarities between the two shows,” creator Yvette Lee Bowser told the Los Angeles Times in 1996. E.I.

City — who happened to be black. In the music video, the cast returns to the set but Carmichael is clearly shaken. The camera shows him out of the moment as others recite their lines. When Rae re-enters the scene, she has a

serious, knowing look on her face and signals to Carmichael to be quiet. She leads him off the set, and finally, we hear JAY-Z rapping: “We stuck in La La Land/ Even when we win, we gon’ lose,” alluding to the Oscars flub, when “La La Land” was mistakenly named the best picture winner over “Moonlight.” The song then jumps to the last verse, with JAY-Z rapping, “Y’all n----s still signin’ deals? Still? After all they done stole, for real?” Carmichael walks off the set and sits on a park bench, just like a scene in “La La Land,” and stares at the full moon. The song fades and the Oscars flub plays. Then, the audience applauds. ELAHE IZADI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A ‘M ‘Meteor Shower’ with star power

Amy Schumer will star in Steve Martin’s Mart four-person comedy “Meteor Shower” on Broadway starting in November. It’s about two couples coup who get together to observe the celestial event that inspires the title. Schumer will be joined joine by Keegan-Michael Key, Laura Benanti and Alan Tudyk. Schumer and Key will be making their Broadway debuts. Martin’s “Meteor Shower” premiered in San Diego last year. (AP) Netflix acquires comics publisher Millarworld (“Kingsman”) with plans for new films, shows

STREAMING Perhaps no show in TV history ever had a title that was better suited to it: “Difficult People.” In this Hulu comedy, returning for Season 3 today, 30-something best friends Julie (Julie Klausner) and Billy (Bully Eichner) form a pushy, shameless united front as they wage war with New York and the show business world they are halfheartedly trying to break into. “Difficult People” flings snark at Woody Allen, David Blaine, Passover, unhinged subway riders, a government initiative to “deprogram” gays, and Alcoholics Anonymous. It finds Julie and Billy ducking into a church sanctuary to charge their phones but, when she finds no outlet there, blurting out indignantly, “What is this place good for?” Together, Billy and Julie share a transcendent platonic bond. “One of the most romantic things of all is finding someone you can hate everything else with,” says Klausner, who created the show. It’s them against the world, armed with pop-culturepowered dialogue that spares nothing and no one. (“Ever since President Trump replaced the Department of Health with Jenny McCarthy’s blog,” says Billy, “nothing makes sense.”) “The fact that we are so loyal to each other buys us a lot of real estate in the Being Horrible Department,” Klausner says.

“I am a Tinder Guy Holding a Fish and I will provide for you.” DAVID MACK, in a piece on buzzfeed.com that imagines the photos from Russian President Vladimir Putin’s latest vacation as photos in a Tinder profile. Mack paired the pictures of the often-shirtless Putin on vacation in Siberia with fake Tinder bro bios like “Just your average strongman looking for a ‘new best friend’ who won’t mind when I sleep in on Sundays or invade Eastern Europe.” Tinder Putin’s interests include “hockey, fishing and Western elections.”

MEDIUM

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Don’t let someone else’s issues become your own — unless you feel it is necessary to protect yourself. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You don’t want to reveal too much too soon, yet you understand the need to tempt others with a hint of what’s coming. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) A bad reaction needn’t change things all that much. Focus on the positive, and be sure not to repeat any mistakes. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may be deceived by someone who knows a thing or two about what you’ve recently been through. This is manipulation at its most dangerous. MONDAY’S SOLUTION

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)

Getting ahead should not require you to do anything that you will be ashamed of in the future. You can keep everything aboveboard.

MONDAY’S SOLUTION

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You may have to bend the rules a bit to secure an outcome that is good for you and those working with you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) What you see is likely to send you in a strange direction if you aren’t careful to step back and view it objectively. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Now is the time to let others know, without any equivocation, what you are capable of and why you want to do a certain job.

FOUR RACK TOTAL Make a 2-7-letter word from the letters in each row. Add points of each word using scoring directions at right. Seven-letter words get a 50-point bonus. Blank tiles used as any letter have no point value. Scrabble is a trademark of Hasbro in the U.S. and Canada.
