A woman who sped through a stop sign at 60 mph said she shouldn’t be arrested because she’s a “very clean, thoroughbred white girl,” police said. Lauren Elizabeth Cutshaw had a blood-alcohol level of .18 percent, said police in Bluffton, S.C.

Reptilian readers?

No, just soggy snakes.

THE DISTRICT The Georgetown Library was closed for more than two days after staff noticed an odd gathering near one of the building’s basement meeting rooms: snakes.

Several of them.

The first sign that something was amiss came Saturday, when a staff member found a live snake in the library, captured it and released it outside. Hours later, a different library employee spotted two new snakes in the downstairs area of the building.

About 3 p.m., the library called pest control and shut its doors ahead of its closing time.

Library staff suspect a knot of four snakes were in the building.

It’s unclear how long the snakes were there before they were discovered.

Library workers said the creatures were small, likely garter snakes — a species of skinny, harmless snakes common to the

region that largely eat bugs, fish and small amphibians.

The library remained closed for two more days — until the pest-control company declared the area clear. Exterminators distributed snake repellent around the perimeter of the building and sealed off any openings that they believed future scaly visitors could use to slither inside.

Although a thorough investigation of the premises did not yield any live snakes, spokesman George Williams said, the

pest-control company discovered one dead snake. The library reopened Tuesday morning.

“I’ve been here 10 years, and this is the first time that I’ve heard of snakes entering the building,” Williams said.

It’s unlikely the snakes were looking for a quiet corner to do some reading. Wet weather in the Washington region has driven up the number of recent snake sightings inside homes, cars and, yes, libraries.

Band-Aid off all at once,” Dorsey said. “If you have the ability to be patient, go ahead and ride it out.

We’ll get you there eventually.”

In the meantime, the Yellow Line will serve as a lifeline for many. That’s why Metro plans to increase capacity between Franconia-Springfield and Greenbelt.

On the weekends when some downtown stations are shuttered, Northern Virginians traveling to stations east of Federal Triangle should take the Yellow Line to L’Enfant Plaza, then transfer to the Orange or Silver lines.

Even so, the disruptions are likely to send many people flocking to their cars, gritting their teeth as they pay for parking and adding to the region’s traffic congestion.

But perhaps the best option for commuters to avoid the pain and struggle of the coming two weeks is the suggestion offered

by Dorsey.

“Right now,” he said, “would be a great time to go on vacation.”

MARYLAND Maryland Democratic gubernatorial nominee Ben Jealous clearly does not like being called a socialist.

On Wednesday, the former NAACP chief was asked at a news conference whether he identified with the term “socialist,” as his political opponent, Gov. Larry Hogan, R, has labeled him.

“Are you f---ing kidding me?”

Jealous responded.

His use of the curse word immediately began rebounding on Twitter and in Maryland political circles.

The flap threatened to overshadow Jealous’ endorsements announcement.

He later apologized “for my inappropriate language.”

In a statement, Jealous offered a direct answer to the question about his political philosophy: “I’m a venture capitalist, not a socialist. I have never referred to myself as a socialist nor would I govern as one.”

Hogan and the Republican Governors Association have repeatedly tried to paint Jealous as “too extreme” for the state, and Jealous has dismissed that criticism as “name-calling.”

Political analysts said Jealous’ use of profanity distracted from the message he was trying to send.

“In a click-driven media narrative, the only thing that gets covered is the curse word,” said political scientist Mileah Kromer of Goucher College.

With upcoming work on the Orange, Blue and Silver lines and Red Line shutdowns, one Metro board member said it “would be a great time to go on vacation.”

Metro: Don’t use Metro

Transit agency says upcoming work on Blue, Orange, Silver lines will be big disruption

TRANSPORTATION Metro launches a track reconstruction project Saturday that will shutter part of the Blue Line, initiate round-the-clock singletracking on the Orange and Silver lines, and close two busy downtown stations on two weekends.

And that’s in addition to the sixweek shutdown on the Red Line — which is only halfway finished.

So, the pamphlets distributed

by Metro to commuters in recent weeks sum up the impending situation quite nicely: “Only take Metro if you have no other option.”

That’s a stance that usually causes Metro board member Christian Dorsey to bristle. With the transit system in the midst of a ridership slump, he typically shudders at the idea of directing would-be paying customers to seek other commuting options.

But in this case, Dorsey said, it might truly be best for Metro riders with access to alternative means of transportation to take a two-week hiatus from the trains.

“I’m always reluctant to tell

expressline

people to not use the system,” Dorsey said. “But for this one — if you have any flexibility with these dog days of summer to work from home or drive into work, I would use it.”

The details of the pain to come: From Saturday through Aug. 26, the Blue Line will run only west of the Potomac River, operating between the Franconia-Springfield and Arlington Cemetery stations. The rail connection between Arlington Cemetery and Rosslyn will be shuttered.

(There won’t be shuttle buses between those stations, either.)

Trains on the Orange and Silver lines will be single-tracking through the downtown core, which means there will be 20-minute headways between trains on each line. Even during rush hour.

Announcement by city, governor comes ahead of rally’s anniversary CHARLOTTESVILLE Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam and the city of Charlottesville on Wednesday declared a state of emergency ahead of the one-year anniversary of a violent white nationalist rally that left one person dead and dozens injured.

Law enforcement officials said there will be a heavy police presence meant to deter any violence.

criticism for their handling of last year’s rally. An independent review found serious police and government failures in responding to violence at the “Unite the Right” rally. It drew hundreds of white nationalists from across the country to the Virginia college town.

Several peaceful events are planned in Charlottesville to commemorate last year’s event and promote racial healing. The city is planning to establish a “defined security area” downtown where weapons will be banned.

Possible hate crime probed in alleged attack of driver

A 22-year-old man who went for his driver’s test left in handcuffs after the examiner became suspicious about a certain odor emanating from the car. News outlets report that the examiner alerted a trooper at the Motor Vehicle Administration office, who searched the car. A Maryland State Police report said the search found nearly a pound of marijuana, a scale, more than $15,000 in cash and a handgun loaded with a 30-round magazine.

The elections board has 20 days to verify the signatures. Segal would need to have 10,000 verified signatures to form the new party. Segal would not be able to run in this year’s U.S. Senate race as a new party nominee because he ran in the Democratic primary. He hopes to host a slate of candidates in 2020. (AP)

Beijing’s trade move follows Trump’s latest round of import taxes TRADE China said Wednesday it will impose tariffs on an additional $16 billion in U.S. auto and energy products in a sign that Beijing and Washington are digging in for what could be a long and bruising trade conflict.

The move came just hours after the Trump administration confirmed plans to proceed with a previously announced round of import taxes on a range of Chinese products worth an equivalent amount.

The latest tariff salvos stem from President Trump’s complaint that China is unfairly acquiring American technology via coercive joint ventures with U.S. companies, cybertheft and other violations of intellectual property rights.

After months of skirmishing between the two economic powers, U.S. customs officers began collecting the first tariffs from importers of Chinese products on July 6. China immediately retaliated with similar tariffs on U.S. goods.

When the additional tariffs go into effect on August 23, both

sides will have taxes on about $50 billion worth of imports.

Trump also is moving forward with plans to tax a further $200 billion in Chinese products as soon as September and has threatened to eventually impose tariffs on all Chinese imports.

The administration’s hard-line stance is stirring doubts among congressional Republicans and business leaders who fear it may rupture profitable commercial relations.

“Their plan may not be to get China to cry uncle. It may be pulling up the drawbridge,” said Scott Kennedy, director of the project on Chinese business at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

In a statement Wednesday, the Chinese Commerce Ministry charged that the United States “once again put domestic law above international law by imposing ‘very unreasonable’ new tariffs on Chinese goods.”

China’s announcement is a direct response to new duties on Chinese goods imported into the U.S., announced Tuesday in Washington. Those new tariffs, totaling $16 billion, will be levied against 279 products, including motorcycles, steam turbines and railway cars. DAVID J. LYNCH AND AMANDA ERICKSON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Lawmaker indicted for fraud Congressman charged with sharing insider info to help son avoid losses

CHIP SOMODEVILLA (GETTY IMAGES)

POLITICS Republican U.S. Rep. Christopher Collins of western New York state was arrested Wednesday on charges he fed inside information he gleaned from sitting on the board of a biotechnology company to his son, helping family and friends dodge hundreds of thousands of dollars in losses when bad news came out.

Collins, 68, is a staunch supporter of President Trump who was among the first two sitting members of Congress to endorse his candidacy.

He pleaded not guilty to an indictment unsealed in Manhattan federal court. The indictment charges Collins, his son and the father of the son’s fiancee with conspiracy, securities fraud, wire fraud and making false statements to the FBI. Prosecutors said the charges stem from Collins’ decision to share with his son insider information about Innate Immunotherapeutics Limited, a biotechnology company headquartered in Sydney, Australia, with offices in Auckland, New Zealand. Collins was the company’s largest shareholder, with nearly 17 percent of its shares, and sat on its board.

According to the indictment, Collins was attending the Congressional Picnic at the White House on June 22, 2017, when he received an email from the company’s chief executive saying

Rep. Christopher Collins pleaded not guilty to charges including conspiracy and insider trading.

that a trial of a drug the company developed to treat multiple sclerosis was a clinical failure.

Collins responded to the email saying: “Wow. Makes no sense.

How are these results even possible???” the indictment said. It said he then called his son, Cameron and, after several missed calls, they spoke for more than six minutes.

The next morning, according to the indictment, Cameron Collins began selling his shares, unloading enough over a two-day period to avoid $570,900 in losses before a public announcement of the drug trial results. After the announcement, the company’s stock price plunged 92 percent.

Prosecutors said the son passed the information to a third defendant, Stephen Zarsky. Their combined trades avoided over $768,000 in losses, authorities said. They said Zarsky traded on it and tipped off at least three others.

U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman told a news conference that Collins was supposed to keep the trial results secret.

“Instead, he decided to commit a crime,” he said. “Representative Collins, who, by virtue of his office, helps write the laws of this country, acted as if the law did not apply to him.”

Collins, a conservative first elected in 2012 to represent

parts of western New York between Buffalo and Rochester, has denied wrongdoing. When the House Ethics Committee began investigating the stock trades a year ago, his spokeswoman called it a “partisan witch hunt.”

“We will answer the charges filed against Congressman Collins in court and will mount a vigorous defense to clear his good name,” his attorneys, Jonathan Barr and Jonathan New, said in a statement Wednesday. “We are confident he will be completely vindicated and exonerated.”

All three defendants were expected to be freed on $500,000 bail Wednesday after they pleaded not guilty.

Collins has a track record of publicly backing Trump, most recently calling for an end to special counsel Robert Mueller’s probe into campaign collusion.

On Wednesday, House Speaker Paul Ryan said he was removing Collins from the House Energy and Commerce Committee, calling insider trading “a clear violation of the public trust.”

Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown, a Democrat, called on Collins to resign.

Democrat Nate McMurray, who is challenging Collins in November’s primary, told reporters Wednesday that Collins brought shame to the region but stopped short of saying he should resign.

“That’s his decision to make.

I’ll leave it up to him but I know what I would do if I was in his place,” said McMurray, the town supervisor in the Buffalo suburb of Grand Island. TOM HAYS (AP)

Vice President Pence to unveil plan to establish Trump’s Space Force today

NASA’s Parker craft will ‘touch’ sun’s corona SPACE A red-hot voyage to the sun is going to bring us closer to our star than ever before.

NASA’s Parker Solar Probe will be the first spacecraft to “touch” the sun, hurtling through the sizzling solar atmosphere and coming within just 3.8 million miles of its surface. It’s set to lift off early Saturday from Cape Canaveral, Fla. The craft is designed to take solar punishment like never before, thanks to a 4 ½-inchthick heat shield that’s capable of withstanding 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Roughly the size of a small car, Parker will get nearly seven times closer to the sun than previous spacecraft. Over seven years, it will fly past Venus seven times, with each flyby providing an orbit-shaping gravity boost, drawing it closer to the sun and into the corona — the sun’s outermost atmosphere.

Scientists want to learn why the corona is hundreds of times hotter than the sun’s surface.

They also hope to figure out what drives the solar wind, the steady, supersonic stream of charged particles blasting off the corona and into space in all directions.

Parker’s first encounter with Venus will occur in early October, and its first brush with the sun is set for November.

The $1.5 billion mission will see the probe make 24 elongated laps around the sun, closer than the orbit of Mercury.

in condemning Russia for the Skripal poisoning and joined with European nations in expelling Russian diplomats in response, but it had yet to make the formal determination that the Russian government had “used chemical or biological weapons in violation of international law or has used lethal chemical or biological weapons against its own nationals.”

Several members of Congress had expressed concern that the Trump administration was dragging its feet on the determination and had missed a deadline to publish its findings.

A new analysis of two decades of data on heart attack victims found that women were more likely to survive if they had a female doctor, CBS News reported. The study, published Monday in the journal PNAS, examined more than 580,000 heart attack patients admitted to Florida hospitals between 1991 and 2010.

Research showed that female physicians had only about a 0.2 percent gender gap in the survival rate of their patients, with 11.8 percent of their male heart attack patients dying compared to 12 percent of their female patients. But the gender gap for male doctors more than tripled, to 0.7 percent, with 12.6 percent of their male patients dying versus 13.3 percent of their female patients.

WASHINGTON The United States announced Wednesday it will impose new sanctions on Russia for illegally using a chemical weapon in an attempt to kill a former spy and his daughter in Britain this year.

The new sanctions, to be imposed later this month, come despite President Trump’s efforts to improve relations with Russia and its leader Vladimir Putin, and amid the ongoing probe into Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. election.

The State Department said the United States this week made the determination that Russia had used the Novichok nerve agent to poison Sergei Skripal and his daughter, Yulia, and that sanctions would follow. It said Congress is being notified of the Aug. 6 determination and that the sanctions would take effect on or around Aug. 22, when the finding is to be published in the Federal Register.

Those sanctions will include the presumed denial of export licenses for Russia to purchase many items with national security implications, according to a senior State Department official.

The United States made a similar determination in February when it found that North Korea used a chemical weapon to

Skripal and his daughter were poisoned by the Novichok military-grade nerve agent in the English town of Salisbury in March. Britain has accused Russia of being behind the attack, which the Kremlin vehemently denies.

Months later, two residents of a nearby town with no ties to Russia were also poisoned by the deadly toxin. Police believe the couple accidentally found a bottle containing Novichok.

Ghost peppers for pest control?

A new study published in Restoration Ecology found that ghost peppers may be key to restoring damaged ecosystems, Atlas Obscura reported. Hungry mice can be an obstacle to restoration — for example, when replanting native species after a fire. Scientists found that coating seeds with ghost pepper powder kept rodents away.

The mice ate 86 percent fewer seeds when they’d been coated with ghost pepper capsaicin. (EXPRESS)

nation+world Star witness concludes three days of testimony in Manafort’s fraud trial COURTS Paul Manafort’s protege wrapped up his testimony Wednesday after implicating the former Trump campaign chairman and himself in financial crimes while also enduring stinging attacks on his character and credibility.

Rick Gates has been the government’s star witness in Manafort’s financial fraud trial, testifying how, at the behest of his longtime boss, he helped conceal millions of dollars in foreign income and submitted fake mortgage and tax documents.

Defense lawyers sought to

paint him as liar and a philanderer, getting him to admit to an extramarital affair and reminding jurors how he had lied to special counsel Robert Mueller’s team.

The testimony, stretching across three days, created an extraordinary courtroom showdown between the two former Trump campaign aides who were indicted together by Mueller.

Prosecutors relied on Gates to provide direct, firsthand support of the accusations against Manafort.

Gates told jurors how he disguised millions in foreign income as loans in order to lower Manafort’s tax bill. He recounted how he and Manafort used more than a dozen offshore shell

companies and bank accounts in Cyprus to funnel the money, while concealing the accounts and the income from the IRS.

Gates faced aggressive questioning by Manafort’s lawyer, Kevin Downing, who at one point asked him, “After all the lies you’ve told and the fraud you’ve committed, you expect this jury to believe you?”

Downing made one last effort Wednesday to erode Gates’ credibility as he tried to confront him over whether he had engaged in four extramarital affairs, instead of just the one that he had admitted to earlier in the trial. After a conference between lawyers, Downing asked Gates only about the time span of his “secret life.”

Gates replied, “I made many mistakes over many years” before he stepped down from the stand. CHAD DAY, STEPHEN BRAUN

COURTS The father of a missing Georgia boy was training kids at a New Mexico compound to commit school shootings, prosecutors said in court documents obtained Wednesday.

The documents say Siraj Ibn Wahhaj was conducting weapons training with assault rifles at the compound near the Colorado border where authorities say they found 11 hungry children living in filthy conditions in a raid Friday.

Prosecutor Timothy Hasson filed the court documents while asking that Wahhaj be held without bail after he was arrested last week with four other adults facing child abuse charges.

“He poses a great danger to the children [and] … to the community as a whole due to the presence of firearms and his intent to use these firearms in a violent and illegal manner,” Hasson wrote.

A judge ordered Wahhaj held without bond pending further proceedings.

Authorities said a foster parent of one of the 11 children told authorities that the child was trained to use an assault rifle for a school shooting.

Also Wednesday, authorities said that human remains found at the compound were being analyzed to determine if they are those of Wahhaj’s son, Abdul-ghani. Wahhaj is accused of abducting Abdul-ghani in December from Georgia.

A primary night rundown Tuesday night was one of extremes. In primaries and special elections in five states — Ohio, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri and Washington — socialist-leaning Democrats challenged their party’s establishment with mixed results, while President Trump boosted GOP challengers far on the right with mixed results. Here are some takeaways. (THE WASHINGTON POST/AP) Trump claims ‘victory’

Too close in Kansas

Rejected in Ferguson

Michigan milestone

A night of oddities

In Ohio, the president took credit for Republican Troy Balderson’s performance, calling it “a great victory,” though the congressional contest could be headed to a recount. Democrats could also celebrate Danny O’Connor’s strong showing in a district that has gone Republican for decades.

Immigration hardliner Kris Kobach, a staunch Trump ally, led Kansas Gov. Jeff Colyer by fewer than 200 votes following the state’s Republican primary election for governor, and it will be days before the race is settled. Kobach vowed to begin campaigning as the presumptive winner.

Voters in St. Louis County, Mo., ousted prosecutor Robert McCulloch, who didn’t bring charges against a white police officer who shot Michael Brown in 2014.

McCulloch, who has held the position since 1991, lost in the St. Louis County Democratic primary to Ferguson Councilman Wesley Bell.

Former Michigan state legislator Rashida Tlaib won the Democratic nomination to run unopposed for a House seat, setting her up to become the first Muslim woman elected to Congress.

She would take the spot held since 1965 by John Conyers, who resigned in December amid harassment claims.

Rep. Ron Estes, R-Kan., who won a 2017 special election, defeated Ron M. Estes, a challenger who was running almost explicitly to make trouble. Meanwhile, twins Monica Sparks, a Democrat, and Jessica Ann Tyson, a Republican, were nominated for separate commission races in Kent County, Mich.

MORE NFL TONIGHT

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

New skill players suit up When the Redskins begin the preseason tonight at New England (7:30, NBC), the offense will be big on first impressions.

It will be the first time we see the new franchise quarterback, the highly touted rookie running back and the receiver taken in the seventh round who’s a dark horse to win a roster spot. The revamped first unit likely will play just a series

Browns at Giants

or two because coach Jay Gruden wants to keep everyone healthy and evaluate reserves. Stand by for bland schemes,

7 p.m., NFL Network

AP, THE WASHINGTON POST AND GETTY IMAGES

a glimpse of playmakers and a look at a lot of long shots to make the club. Here are five players to watch.

Alex Smith

Derrius Guice

Trey Quinn

Rob Kelley

Tim Settle

Quarterback

Running back

Receiver/punt returner

Running back

Nose tackle

He’ll don a burgundy and gold game jersey for the first time but might play only a few snaps. Even then, he may keep the deep ball under wraps.

There’s no sense in letting future opponents study film of Paul Richardson stretching the field. Smith has been sharp in training camp and moves well outside of the pocket.

Look for a lot of dump-off passes to backs and a short completion or two to tight end Vernon Davis, a favorite target of Smith’s when they played for the 49ers. Smith doesn’t need the extra work tonight.

He already seems to have chemistry with receivers.

Finally, it’s time to see what the most-hyped rookie on the team can do. The Redskins think they got a steal in the second-round pick who fell to No. 59 after a whisper campaign against his character. So far, Guice has been adored by fans for providing free movie tickets and popcorn one day and accepting endless autograph requests on others. Even the backs competing with him for snaps like him.

Guice has looked solid up the middle in practices, but let’s see what happens against an opposing team.

Matching up against Pats backups could help him have a productive debut.

The last player picked in the draft has been steady since minicamps. All he does is make plays. Coach Jay Gruden is trying out Quinn at punt returner, which means the club is looking for a way to keep him within a deep receiving corps. Quinn is reminiscent of former Redskins long-shot receiver James Thrash, whose two preseason kickoff returns for touchdowns paved the way to a 12-year pro career.

Quinn, who caught a school-record 114 passes at SMU last year, runs excellent routes and has great hands. Can he separate from pro corners?

The former starting back is listed atop the depth chart, but he’s on thin ice after regressing in a 2017 season marred by injuries.

Gruden likes Kelley, who rushed for 704 yards as an undrafted free agent in 2016, but Guice is coming for his spot. Chris Thompson and Samaje Perine are locks to remain, which likely leaves room for just one more back.

Kelley dropped 20 pounds this offseason. He’s also been returning and covering punts in practice to improve his chances of making the club. But if he averages under 4 yards per carry in the preseason, consider him gone.

Teammates and coaches can’t stop talking about the fifth-round pick from Virginia Tech who played high school ball at Stonewall Jackson in nearby Manassas, Va. First-round pick Daron Payne is sidelined with an ankle injury until at least next week, so Settle should get more work with the starters. The Redskins are confident that the 328-pound tackle could play alongside Payne in 4-3 schemes, too.

Teammates have lauded Settle’s strength. If you see him dancing after a big move, chances are he learned it from playing Fortnite with Guice.

QB Joe Flacco expects to play with starters as Ravens host Rams tonight (7:30, ABC)

The top two picks in the draft — Baker Mayfield and Saquon Barkley, above — make their NFL debuts.

Mayfield, the Heisman Trophy-winning QB from Oklahoma, is supposed to back up Browns newcomer Tyrod Taylor all year, but he’ll get two quarters to impress tonight. Barkley should find lanes behind New York’s biggest free agent acquisition, former Pats left tackle Nate Solder.

Cowboys at 49ers 10 p.m., NFL Network

Leighton Vander Esch, above, is the top middle linebacker on Dallas’ depth chart after being drafted in the first round out of Boise State. He’ll start off trying to stop former Vikings running back Jerick McKinnon, the new centerpiece of San Francisco’s offense. QB Jimmy Garoppolo won’t play much for the 49ers, but C.J. Beathard should keep things interesting after starting five games last year. (EXPRESS)

Mystics clinch playoff spot with tight win in Phoenix

NCAA: Prospects can work with agents and stay eligible

D.C. United has reacquired goalkeeper Bill Hamid on a 1½-year loan from Danish club Midtjylland, people close to the situation said Wednesday. Hamid, a homegrown player from Annandale, Va., played for D.C. from 2010 to 2017, making 193 MLS starts. In 2014, he was the MLS Goalkeeper of the Year.

The 27-year-old left for Europe last winter. But in Denmark, he’s started just one league game and been a backup 19 times. United attempted to buy Hamid via a transfer fee, but could not reach a deal. United instead acquired the goalkeeper through a loan. He will arrive this week. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Elena Delle Donne scored 30 points, Kristi Toliver added 25 and the Washington Mystics secured a playoff spot with a 103-98 victory over the Mercury on Tuesday night in Phoenix. The WNBA postseason begins Aug. 21, and the Mystics (1811) entered Wednesday as the third overall seed in the 12-team league.

Phoenix’s Diana Taurasi (29 points) led a late comeback to cut the lead to two points with 17.5 seconds left, but Toliver made three free throws on two possessions to seal it.

Brittney Griner had 35 points and 11 rebounds for Phoenix. Washington has five games left and hosts Seattle today (11:30 a.m., NBATV). (AP)

The NCAA on Wednesday announced sweeping reforms to college basketball based on recommendations made in April from a commission led by former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice.

The changes include allowing players to work with vetted agents while declaring for the NBA draft. If the NBA removes its one-and-done rule, elite high school prospects will be allowed to work with agents and still remain eligible. Agents will have to be certified by the NCAA or the NBA players’ union. They’ll be allowed to cover minimal expenses, and their work would stop if the player enrolls or returns after going undrafted.

weekendpass My D.C. dream day

I would ditch everyone and go get a massage at The Still Point, which is in Takoma Park. It’s just a really nice, quiet atmosphere, and it’s in a house, so you just feel comfortable when you walk in. It feels like a wellness center.

IAN PALMIERO

My favorite place to eat in the city, if my husband’s like, “Let’s go anywhere you want for your birthday,” or whatever, is Meats & Foods.

The kids call it the hot dog store. They’re not wrong. I would have a salt and pepper half-smoke and a chilito. Their chilitos are life-changing.

Cortney Palmiero SALON OWNER

When Cortney Palmiero and her husband set out to open a salon, they wanted to find a place that would make stylists feel at home and inspired to experiment. Takoma Park, Md., turned out to be just the right spot for their now 3-year-old Scissor & Comb Salon. “It’s a beautiful neighborhood. Treelined streets, family-friendly,” says Palmiero, 34. “It just feels comfortable here.” Comfortable is an apt word for the breezy, white-tiled salon, where Palmiero says the latest trend in hair is simple, low-maintenance looks. “People just want really wearable hair these days,” she says. “Lived-in, not like they’ve spent seven hours on it with tons of hair spray and product.”

That gives Palmiero more time to explore Takoma Park and D.C. on her dream day, along with husband Ian and their three kids, who range in age from 3 months to 6 years old.

I would wake up, wrangle my husband and three children, and I would go to Takoma Beverage Company. They have a great breakfast, pastries, coffee, an awesome beer menu, small plates for lunch and dinner. I’d get the breakfast bowl, which is this chorizo-patatas bravas-sweet pepper bowl. It’s delicious.

We’re gonna hit the Takoma Park Farmers Market. We do our produce: Our kids are picking out exactly what they want, and we’re threatening them that they have to eat it so it doesn’t go bad. We got really lucky — they’re amazing eaters. We’re probably picking up some cheese and meat and eggs too, and definitely fresh flowers.

I would probably take the kids to the toy store. I think the best toy store in this area — and I’ve done the legwork — is Barstons Child’s Play on Connecticut Avenue NW. It is a gem. They’ve got games, stuffed animals, an awesome setup of Legos, hula hoops, books, stickers. You go in and it’s magical, because there’s so much stuff. Parenting is hard, but it’s pretty rewarding to not tell your children where you’re going and then they know when you get to the neighborhood exactly where they’re going. It’s just excitement.

For dinner, we’re going to Seoul Food D.C., a Korean barbecue restaurant in Takoma Park. It’s fresh and delicious — we love going in there. I get the seasonal taco, or they’ve got this Lotus Buddha Bowl that’s got this curried rice with cauliflower and cabbage and some tahini.

I’m putting the kids to bed and going to Tattoo Paradise. My husband and I like getting tattooed. We’d get what we call a “funsie,” which is a little tattoo, quick and easy. We’re definitely spontaneous, so it’s a figureit-out-on-the-way-there thing.

Then we’d go get beers at Quarry House Tavern [in Silver Spring].

There’s something about drinking in a dark dungeon basement that’s really calming.

D.C.’s (ice) cream of the crop Someone had to do it. The Washington Post visited ice cream shops across the city, eating scoop after scoop to find the best. The taste tests were limited to traditional, scoopable sweets (so gelato was OK but not soft-serve or custard). And each three-scoop purchase consisted of chocolate, vanilla and a wild-card flavor. Four factors determined each shop’s ranking: taste, range of available flavors, price and the location’s overall vibe.

Here are the five shops that wound up on top.

Jeni’s announces itself with the scent of freshly baked cones before you even walk through the door. It beckons you into the whimsical, Wonka-esque store, with a spacious upstairs that makes it easy to linger. Jeni’s is pricey (one scoop costs $5.50) and the portions are small, but the ice cream makes up for it with its richness and range of flavors, such as Ricotta Toast With Red Berry Geranium Jam, Gooey Butter Cake and Salted Honey Pie. It is meant to be savored.

This shop has earned its reputation as a Georgetown institution. The spoon-dwarfing portions — an enormous two-scoop “regular” costs just $4.70 — and unusually wide array of flavors help explain why the line outside Thomas Sweet often stretches down the block.

The standard vanilla is fine, but why would you ever go for that when there are equally light options like Heavenly Cherry or Coffee Oreo?

Ice Cream Jubilee 1407 T St. NW

If you have the cash to spend, the T Street NW location of this local creamery is a near-perfect destination (a regular, two-scoop order is $5.45). Each of its rotating flavors feels innovative, from Honey Lemon Lavender to Everything Bagel. The latter was sold out on a recent visit — proof that when it comes to ice cream, weird can be good and popular. The only downside here is that Ice Cream Jubilee’s physical space is tight, which might make its neighbor Jeni’s more appealing when the weather gets unbearably hot.

(Ice Cream Jubilee has an additional location near Nationals Park at 301 Water St. SE.)

Trickling Springs Creamery Union Market, 1309 Fifth St. NE

MATT MCCLAIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

For old-school, nostalgic ice cream, this is as good as it gets. Trickling Springs is housed in the center of bustling Union Market and, in addition to milkshakes and root beer floats, sells milk from its flagship store in Pennsylvania. The ice cream consists of tasteful renderings of classic flavors — with a few surprises, like the mouthwatering Red Raspberry Brownie. The scoops ($4.50 for one) are enormous and eminently shareable, which makes it the ideal spot for traditional ice cream.

Dolci Gelati

1420 Eighth St. NW; 107 N. Fairfax St., Alexandria; 7040 Carroll Ave., Takoma Park, Md.; food truck Twitter: @dgtruck

After a spoonful of Dolci’s sinfully smooth gelato, you’ll see why the shop with a food truck and locations in D.C., Maryland and Virginia topped the others in every category — despite its lack of name recognition when compared with gelato competitors Dolcezza and Pitango. Its employees use time-tested techniques to whip up daily batches of Italian staples, variations on popular American flavors — birthday cake and salted caramel, for example — and even a few dog-friendly flavors so you can share the love with your pup. The gelato servings are generous but manageable (a small cup costs $5.50), and you’ll want to lick up every drop.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER

She began listing the people who lived in the house and the years they lived there, and I kinda zoned out. I later found out that our tour guide had really buried the lead. Decatur bled to death in the very room we were peering into!

I discovered this after the tour while reading “The Stephen Decatur House: A History,” a book recently published by the White House Historical Association, the group that oversees the Decatur House and runs its tours. As it turns out, the dashing Navy commander lived in his grand new home for only 14 months before he was killed in a duel in 1820.

“Smears of blood on the door jamb and along the corridor walls inside showed where, only minutes before, the wounded man had been carried through to the reception room on the ground floor,” section author James Tertius de Kay writes in the book. Decatur had been shot by James Barron, a fellow Navy officer whom Decatur considered a mentor and father figure early in his career. Their relationship went south when Decatur called Barron a coward for sitting out the War of 1812.

Instead of pointing to the walls that were once smeared with our hero’s blood, our guide noted some of the house’s cool architectural details, including a little button of ivory in a staircase banister, and a British coin turned upside down in a brass

door fixture.

“It’s a way of thumbing your nose at the British,” she said.

As we headed to the second floor, our guide explained that Decatur’s house was designed

by Benjamin Henry Latrobe, who was also the architect of the U.S. Capitol. Like many Federal-style buildings, the Decatur House is relentlessly symmetrical.

For instance, on the secondfloor staircase landing, there’s a fake door — its only purpose is to mirror the real door on the other side of the room. Latrobe also designed the house so that the areas where servants and enslaved people worked were kept out of sight of guests and family members.

Decatur didn’t own slaves himself but, around 1822, a subsequent owner of the home built an addition for enslaved people to live in, our guide said as she showed us into a plain room to the west of the main house.

She told us a fascinating story about one enslaved woman who

Pro tip: Enhance your tour by reading ‘The Stephen Decatur House: A History.’ lived there — Charlotte Dupuy, who sued her owner, Secretary of State and later Decatur House resident Henry Clay, for her freedom in 1829. She lost the case, but somehow she wore Clay down, and he released Dupuy and her daughter from servitude in 1840 (though Dupuy’s son remained enslaved by Clay for four more years).

What a brave woman, to stand up to someone so much more powerful than herself. The details of what inspired her to take her case to court, or how she finally won out, are lost to history, our guide said. I’m just glad the home where Dupuy once lived is still around, a testament to her bravery as well as that of the home’s more famous original

owner.

The tour was winding down, so I asked our guide my burning question: Who lives in the other row houses on the block?

“They’re all government offices now,” she said, adding that, in the 1960s, the federal government wanted to tear them all down, including Decatur House, and build big, modern office buildings. Luckily, Jackie Kennedy championed an alternative plan that preserved the old row houses, reused them as government offices and hid modern government buildings behind them, she said.

I was a little disappointed to learn that Lafayette Square today is home only to boring government offices, and not to rich and powerful people who throw great parties and sometimes murder one another, as it once was. But I’m thankful to Jackie Kennedy for saving Decatur House and its neighbors, and keeping that colorful history alive.

He makes a living making fun of life Comedian Ahmed Bharoocha found his dream job — and he’s not letting go COMEDY A h med Bha roocha’s comedy d re a m g rew out of a misunderstanding.

Back in 2004, when Bharoocha was an engineering student at the University of Rhode Island, he applied to be a dishwasher and busboy at Stitches Komedy Kafe in nearby Providence.

He pursued the gig under the

impression that the comedy club staff would be counted on to make customers laugh.

“That’s why I tried to work there,” Bharoocha says. “Once I got there I realized, ‘Oh, I’m just applying to be the busboy — not a funny busboy.’ ” Bharoocha bided his time, quietly writing his own material. After a year, he signed up

for his first open mic. He started working the Boston scene as well, becoming a comic in residence at the trendy Comedy Studio.

Bharoocha made the move to Los Angeles in 2010, gaining a following as part of the sketch comedy troupe Dead Kevin while also grinding through the openmic circuit.

“Most of the stage time is pretty awful,” Bharoocha says of those early days. “But with stand-ups, it’s like an addict thing — you’re just kind of addicted to

CALLIE BIGGERSTAFF

I’ve often wondered what’s up with the houses around Lafayette Square, the park just to the north of the White House. The handsome row homes seem completely out of place in downtown D.C., and there are no conspicuous signs detailing the buildings’ use today. So I was excited to find out that one of them, known as the Decatur House, is open for free tours on Mondays.

“Does anyone here know who Stephen Decatur Jr. was?” our tour guide asked. I and my three fellow tourists shrugged, looking vaguely embarrassed. “That’s OK,” the guide said. “I didn’t know who he was before I started working here.”

She explained that Decatur was a Navy commander famous for two daring acts. In 1804, after a ship he was serving on was captured by pirates, he led a crew who snuck back on and burned the ship to keep it from being used against the U.S. Later, during the War of 1812, Decatur captured a British ship and brought it back to America to be refurbished and used against the British.

“The U.S. Congress awarded Decatur prize money with that capture, and with that prize money Decatur built this house,” our guide said.

the art and performing. So even when it’s not going well, you still come back for more. You kind of don’t know what else to do.”

Eventually, Bharoocha’s commitment paid dividends. Pairing sharp observations on dayto-day life with high-energy theatrics, the 34-year-old has become a stand-up pro with sets on “Conan” and “The Late Show With Stephen Colbert” under his belt.

“I’m just kind of a silly, goofy person up there, making fun of life,” he says.

The son of an Irish Catholic mother and a Pakistani-IndianBurmese Muslim father, Bharoocha has a perspective that lends itself to cultural commentary.

While he does touch on topics like politics, race and religion in his act, he approaches the material with a tone that’s lighthearted and open-minded.

“I don’t really feel like making people only laugh when they agree with me,” Bharoocha says.

“I think that can be a dangerous thing, or doesn’t really challenge yourself creatively. I also try to remember that I’m a comedian and I really don’t come from a place of authority, so these are just my thoughts and my ideas and not necessarily scripture.”

Besides his stand-up, which brings him to Drafthouse Comedy this weekend, Bharoocha is a regular on the trippy Adult Swim comedy “Dream Corp LLC,” appearing alongside the likes of “Napoleon Dynamite’s” Jon Gries and “The Office” cocreator Stephen Merchant. The series, which returns for a second season this fall, represents another piece of a career Bharoocha could have only dreamed of a decade and a half ago while he was scrubbing dishes in a Rhode Island comedy club.

“Pretty early on I wanted [comedy] to be a career,” Bha roocha says. “ It definitely took a lot longer than you’d want. Now I just want to keep doing what I’m doing.”

In a garden, the heat can grow on you DUMBARTON OAKS

We’ve had a weird summer here in D.C. It’s been hot, and then wet, and then hot and wet. Few people enjoy the muggy weather, but our plants are loving it. Flowers are exploding like slow-motion fireworks, vines are climbing up walls and fences, and trees are already working on next year’s buds. So, instead of huddling in air conditioning and counting the days till sweater weather, join our chlorophyll-filled friends in a full-hearted embrace of summer’s swampy glory by visiting one of D.C.’s spectacular open-to-the-public gardens. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

Dumbarton Oaks 31st and R streets NW; daily except Mondays, 2-6 p.m., $10.

In the 1920s, pre-eminent landscape designer Beatrix Farrand sculpted a peaceful idyll of terraced lawns, winding pathways and flower-speckled meadows on this Georgetown estate. These green spaces have been kept up to Ferrand’s strict specifications, and they draw legions of landscape architects as well as casual admirers. Both kinds of visitors glide down graceful staircases to discover a series of outdoor “rooms” that go from formal to wild the further you get from the mansion at the top of the garden — the former home of a wealthy Washington couple, now a Harvard research library and museum. Farrand had benches custom-built to fit the landscape and instructed future gardeners as to the types of plants that look best together, but for all of its carefully constructed beauty, Dumbarton Oaks isn’t a showy garden. You won’t find a lot of flowers here in August, but it’s a perfect place to take a contemplative walk or read under a shady tree. (If it’s flowers you’re looking for, come back in September for a spectacular chrysanthemum display.)

Tudor Place

1644 31st St. NW; Tuesdays-Saturdays, 10 a.m.-4 p.m., Sundays, noon-4 p.m., $3.

Smithsonian Gardens The 13 gardens that are scattered around the Smithsonian museums along the Mall are an officially accredited museum in their own right — and one that many people visit without even realizing it. At the Enid A. Haupt Garden, just south of the Smithsonian Castle, you’ll find all sorts of alienlooking tropical plants, including the chenille plant, which currently appears to be growing a mane of pink feather boas. Nearby, on the north side of the Arts and Industries Building, is the Kathrine Dulin Folger Rose Garden (above), which is blooming with robust, disease-resistant roses that you’ll want for your own garden, including pale purple Poseidons and Yellow Submarines. Take a walk to the east side of the National Museum of Natural History and meander through the Smithsonian’s Pollinator Garden, where towering tangles of coneflowers and lavender attract a slow parade of bees and butterflies.

TUDOR PLACE

National Mall; free

If you could chat with the boxwood hedges at Tudor Place, they’d catch you up on about 200 years of D.C. gossip. Rumored to have been grown from a clipping from Mount Vernon, these precision-trimmed shrubs stand at the front entryway of the former home of Martha Washington’s granddaughter, Martha Parke Custis Peter, and her husband, Thomas Peter, the son of Georgetown’s first mayor. Committed upcyclers, the Peters loved repurposing old materials in their gardens — including a pair of hat racks from the old Treasury Building, now used as planters. Summer is a great time to admire the yellow coneflowers and purple garden phlox, which are growing so exuberantly that they threaten to encroach on the garden pathways. Keep an eye out for cottontail rabbits as you admire the bowling green — an expansive lawn guarded by two sleek greyhound statues — or watch birds frolic in the multi-tiered fountain on the green’s southern end.

Hillwood Estate

Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America

4155 Linnean Ave. NW; Tuesdays-Saturdays, 10 a.m.-5 p.m., $18 suggested donation.

1400 Quincy St. NE; daily, 9 a.m.-4:45 p.m., free.

In the 1950s, heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post built her Northwest D.C. estate with two goals in mind: She wanted it to eventually serve as a museum for her art collection, and she wanted space for throwing fabulous parties — in the house, but also in the surrounding gardens. The French garden, off of the home’s French drawing room, is ideal for intimate conversations, while the Lunar Lawn was built for massive garden parties. If you’re more interested in admiring flowers than hobnobbing, visit the cutting garden, where you can get lost among unruly thickets of zinnias, amaranth and marigolds. Or escape the heat in the Japanese-style garden, where you can take shelter under a maple tree or walk across paving stones that dapple the pond and tip your hat to Cecilia, Hillwood’s resident turtle. Thirsty for fall colors? Come back in September for a blaze of autumn foliage and matching borders of bushy mums.

If you can’t make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem or Rome, consider traveling to Brookland instead.

The Northeast D.C. neighborhood is home to the Franciscan Monastery of the Holy Land in America, and the monastery’s steep, hillside garden is scattered with replicas of religious sites you’d have to travel the world to see. Under a veil of vines bearing orange flowers, you’ll find a full-size copy of Jesus’ tomb and other Roman catacombs. Additional opportunities for prayer and contemplation abound in the monastery’s front-yard garden, which showcases tropical plants reminiscent of the Middle East, including palm trees and angel’s trumpet shrubs. That’s also where you’ll find the monastery’s famous rose bushes, which peak in spring. While there aren’t as many blooms In August, you’re likely to have the landscape all to yourself, your thoughts accompanied by a shimmering choir of cicadas.

Teenagers have a not-gay old time in “The Miseducation of Cameron Post.”

‘The Miseducation of Cameron Post’ Chloe Grace Moretz stars in “The Miseducation of Cameron Post” as a teenager who, after getting caught making out with another girl, is sent to a gay conversion camp. Because those TOTALLY work (they do not work). The “therapy” consists mainly of prayer, karaoke and makeup. Luckily, Cameron finds a group of friends who also know who they are and that they won’t change, so she’s not alone in thinking that telling someone they’re an ungodly aberration isn’t the best way to convince teenagers you care about them.

The main draw of the convention, which moved from Baltimore to D.C. last year, is the passionate communion among creators, composers, actors and fans of East Asian pop culture, but what will stand out is the elaborate cosplay from die-hards, who can compete in a costume contest or a lip-sync battle.

‘Dr. Pimple Popper’ is the year’s grossest hit

verbatim

“I think everybody would be excited to do some version of it — hopefully on ice.”

Sandra Lee has turned dermatology into an unlikely TV obsession

AMY POEHLER, speaking during

TLC

TELEVISION Believe it or not, there’s an entire subculture of people really passionate about popping pimples.

Sandra Lee, a dermatologist in Southern California, calls them “popaholics” and refers to their sickening — yet, somewhat intriguing — obsession with watching others do the dirty deed as “popaholicism.” And she’s giving them exactly what they want — “pops,” oozing blackheads, whiteheads and cysts of all sizes, shapes and colors.

Lee, a cosmetic and surgical dermatologist in Upland better known as “Dr. Pimple Popper,” has gained widespread attention on social media, where she has posted countless videos showing her removing poppable things from her patients’ bodies. Now she has her own show on TLC by the same name, which airs at 10 p.m. on Wednesdays — providing a deeper dive into her patients’ lives and the up-close and personal procedures she performs on them.

“It’s fascinating to me why people love this stuff,” Lee says, explaining that people have told her that watching the videos relaxes and entertains them.

Since its premiere last month, which drew some 2.4 million viewers, TLC’s “Dr. Pimple

Dermatologist Sandra Lee has become a star to so-called “popaholics.”

Popper” has become an unlikely summer hit, showing several patients learning about their conditions and having various growths removed from their bodies.

“I think it’s going to capture the interest of more than just ‘popaholics’; it will convert people into ‘popaholicism’ because I think it shows a more wellrounded picture of what goes on,” Lee says about the show.

She says “Dr. Pimple Popper” is “not just about the ‘pops’ or the surgery” because it shows her patients’ journeys — something she does not typically get to see.

“It’s so interesting to me that this is all sort of starting on the grotesque, or something that is

shocking or gross to so many people, but it ends up being a happy story,” she says.

Lee acknowledges she is still surprised by how she became Dr. Pimple Popper — a brand that has led to a skin care line, a television show and a board game.

“This is bonkers — just bonkers,” she says.

But it’s also “special,” Lee adds. “I feel honored and humbled by it,” she says. “It’s intimidating, too, because I feel like I’m representing dermatology in general and I want to make sure I represent dermatologists well. It’s been a ride.

I have to sit back sometimes and remind myself to enjoy it.”

a Television Critics Association panel Wednesday about the possibility of a “Parks and Recreation” revival. The NBC sitcom about small-town government employees ran from 2009 to 2015. “Everybody has my number,” Poehler said.

“We all have a text chain and talk to each other almost every day.”

Ruby Rose to don the cape and cowl

Ruby Rose will make history by playing Batwoman, the first openly gay superhero to headline a TV series, The CW announced Tuesday.

Batwoman will be introduced in a December crossover event featuring the network’s other DC Comics shows, “Arrow,” “The Flash” and “Supergirl.” A stand-alone series about Batwoman is in development for the 2019-20 TV season. “I am beyond thrilled and honored,” Rose wrote on Instagram.

Oscars to add category for popular films FILM The Oscars are adding a new category to honor popular films, promising a brisk three-hour ceremony and scheduling a much earlier air date for 2020.

John Bailey, the newly re-elected president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and film Academy CEO Dawn Hudson wrote in an email to members Wednesday morning that the Board of Governors met Tuesday night to approve the changes.

Ratings for the 90th Academy Awards fell to an all-time low of 26.5 million viewers, down 19 percent from the previous year.

Hosted by Jimmy Kimmel, the ceremony this past March also clocked in at nearly four hours.

In an effort to keep ceremonies to three hours, some of the less popular awards will be presented during commercial breaks, with the winning moments edited and aired later in the broadcast.

The film academy is also shifting the date for the 92nd Academy Awards to earlier in the year. The 2019 ceremony will still air Feb. 24, while the 2020 show will move to Feb. 9.

The addition of a popular film category is a clear effort to attract a larger audience by honoring bigger movies with more viewers. Bailey and Hudson said eligibility requirements will be determined at a later date. It wasn’t clear whether it would be added for the 91st Academy Awards this February. LINDSEY BAHR (AP)

Funding secured,� Musk tweeted. CNBC reported Wednesday that it’s unclear what Musk meant by “funding secured,� as the company has not disclosed any actual plans or financiers.

The wording in Musk’s tweet, however, became a meme as people applied “funding secured� to their daily lives. “Am considering taking the wife to dinner tonight. Funding secured,� @MArgersinger tweeted.

“I get stopped often.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may want to step back from a currently bubbling situation and figure out where the pressure is really coming from. You’ll be surprised.

warning you receive from a friend or loved one must be taken seriously today. Now is no time to turn away from a trusted ally.

TODAY: It’s by no means refreshing, but light winds from the west take some edge off the heat and humidity. We should start mostly sunny but may turn partly cloudy during the afternoon, with highs maxing out in the upper 80s to near 90. And we can’t rule out an isolated late-afternoon shower or storm.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) There is more to a certain situation than meets the eye — or the ear — today. You may want to begin an in-depth analysis.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Focus on the things you cannot clearly see, and you will be able to understand more of what’s going on because your other senses engage.

Speaking to the HuffPost, Riley said he later apologized to “Thor” director Taika Waititi for the expense.
