A freight train car that derailed in northern Iowa Tuesday rolled into and damaged a trackside tavern called DeRailed. Police Chief Hugh Anderson said the accident occurred around 4 a.m. as crews moved rail cars and changed connections in Charles City. Anderson said an officer called to say a train car had derailed into DeRailed, adding that “it’s not every day you get to say that.” The bar sustained about $10,000 in damage. (AP)

‘Outburst’ of shooting stars ASTRONOMY The pleasantly prolific Perseid meteor shower — a shooting-star show that reigns each August — may become an “outburst” this year, if astronomical predictions hold firm. In any given year, when the dark heavens cooperate, the Perseids could peak at 50 to 100 shooting stars an hour. This year, the International Meteor Organization thinks that number may increase to about 150 meteors an hour. Other astronomers are calling for as many as 200 meteors an hour. Of course, nothing is a shooting-star slam dunk. U.S. Naval Observatory astronomer Geoff Chester tempers the excitement with caution, reminding all sky gazers that meteor showers can be unpredictable. The Perseid meteors peak this Thursday evening into Friday morning, your best chance to
catch the light show. The young, bright moon will wash out many meteors Thursday evening, but chances get better after midnight: The waxing young moon sets at 1:09 a.m., welcoming heavenly darkness, according to the Naval Observatory. What exactly are meteors? Comet trash. As ancient comets pass near Earth, they leave a dusty trail — and our planet speeds through the debris each year on its journey around the sun. When our planet crosses these paths, the little granular specs strike Earth’s atmosphere, and they light up and streak through our skies. For the Perseids, that comet is Swift-Tuttle, discovered independently in 1862 by astronomers Lewis Swift and Horace P. Tuttle, who happens to be buried in an unmarked grave at Oakwood Cemetery in Falls Church, Va. Watching the Perseids is easy: Go outside and look up. It’s that simple.

Cherry Springs State Park, Pa.: While not exactly local, this park in northern Pennsylvania is one of the International Dark Sky Association’s designated “dark places.” (TWP)
If you’re in a neighborhood or an urban location, get away from porch lights and street lights — find a dark area and let your eyes adjust to the night. With 100 to 200 meteors per hour at peak, you’re not going to see every shooting star, but it should be persistent — such as one every few minutes. Meteors appear to emanate from the constellation Perseus, which now rises before 10 p.m. in the northeast. But looking at any part of the dark sky will do — because they seem to zip through the heavens from every direction. BLAINE FRIEDLANDER (THE WASHINGTON POST)
D.C. finally dips below 70 degrees D.C.’s streak of consecutive days with temperatures above 70 degrees finally ended early Tuesday when the mercury dipped to 68 degrees. Had it remained 2 degrees warmer, the streak threatened to last another seven to 10 days, at least — given the very warm and humid weather in the forecast. Officially, the mercury remained at 70 degrees or higher for 35 straight days, three days more than the prior longest streak, which ended Aug. 15, 1980. This stretch applied only to the D.C. urban core. (TWP)

Still ‘safety before service’? Metro’s board seeks answers from GM days after a train derailed
expressline
Part of Red Line to be closed this weekend
MARK WILSON (GETTY IMAGES)
TRANSPORTATION A damning federal report on systemic problems with track maintenance at Metro has shaken the confidence of the agency’s board members, who have received little from leadership by way of explanation and some of whom believe the Federal Transit Administration should have forced Metro to address problems that put riders at risk. Most of all, board members have questions: Who OK’d the decision to hold off repairing a stretch of track that later caused a derailment? Why didn’t Metro officials communicate their inability to complete inspections in a regular, timely manner? And what happened to the new era of “safety before service” heralded by the arrival late last year of General Manager Paul Wiedefeld? On Tuesday, 11 days after a train carrying 75 passengers derailed at East Falls Church, Metro declined to answer questions related to the crash investigation or make Wiedefeld available for an interview on the findings of reports released by FTA and the National Transportation Safety Board. “As he has demonstrated, Paul is committed to holding people accountable. In order to do that, the investigations must be thorough and fact-based — and that does take time,” Metro spokesman Dan Stessel said. Some of the questions were not directly related to the derailment. The agency, for example, declined to say if it has beefed up its track inspection regimen after federal officials pointed out that inspections were being carried out once monthly instead of twice weekly as prescribed in
Paul Wiedefeld said he would put “safety before service” as Metro’s general manager.
Metro’s own guidelines. Metro also declined to say if it has inspected track widths systemwide since the derailment. The derailment was caused by a defect known as “wide gauge,” in which the two rails are too far apart and cause the wheels to lose contact with the rails. Following the July 29 incident, Metro said it would inspect all interlockings that would be used heavily during SafeTrack. The FTA said Metro has made it clear to federal officials that it will follow a “robust” inspection regimen in areas surrounding SafeTrack going forward. Federal officials also noted that the specialized vehicle Metro uses to identify track defects is out of service. The transit agency declined to say when the vehicle will be back in service, or specify what was wrong with it or what is being used to inspect tracks in its absence. Metro Board Chairman Jack Evans said he also is concerned about the lack of information on how, and when, Metro plans to ramp up the inspection schedule.
“What is the state of the track system out there? It’s still a wreck. That’s the ongoing question I have.” METRO BOARD CHAIRMAN JACK EVANS, on one of his questions for
Metro’s GM Paul Wiedefeld
He said he expects to get some of those answers today, when he is scheduled to meet with Wiedefeld and new members of his executive team, all of whom started their jobs in recent weeks: Chief Safety Officer Patrick Lavin, Chief Operating Officer Joseph Leader and General Counsel Patricia Lee. Still, Evans said, Wiedefeld’s new high-level staff may yet instill major changes for a quick turnaround. “We’re still building this team to address these problems,” Evans said. The Federal Transit Administration’s report, released
Police: Intruder shot by off-duty officer in Laurel, Md., on Sunday had a knife
Monday, focuses on the confusing regulations, inconsistent procedures, and lack of a regular schedule or robust training that hinders Metro’s ability to efficiently and reliably perform inspections and conduct repairs on the tracks. It’s the first in a series of deep dives that the regulatory agency plans to release by the end of the summer, all aimed at addressing systemic issues within Metro: One will look at red-signal violations, the other will address the traction power electrification system. Among the most notable conclusions of the report released Monday: FTA staff had pushed for Metro to include an interlocking close to East Falls Church station in its SafeTrack parameters, but Metro decided to wait on those repairs in order to continue operating single-tracking throughout the safety “surge.” Degraded tracks at that interlocking caused the July 29 derailment of two cars of a Silver Line train. MARTINE POWERS AND FAIZ SIDDIQUI (THE WASHINGTON POST)
TRANSPORTATION The special maintenance project on the west side of the Red Line will become even more special this weekend as Metro adds more repairs to fix problems identified during the inspections the general manager ordered after the Orange/Silver line derailment in July. Unlike the weekday work, in which trains will continuously share a track between the end of the line at Shady Grove and Twinbrook, the weekend project will shut the Red Line completely between Shady Grove and Grosvenor. The closing will clear the tracks so that crews can replace crossties and perform additional repairs, including work on switches, Metro said. Weekend train service will be replaced with free shuttle buses. The Shady Grove, Rockville, Twinbrook and White Flint stations will be closed. The 15 SafeTrack maintenance projects consist mostly of long-planned track repairs that Metro General Manager Paul J. Wiedefeld has ordered condensed into about a year’s time. The work that began Tuesday between Shady Grove and Twinbrook includes refurbishing or replacing crossties, rail fasteners, rails, switches and power cables. Last month’s derailment occurred at a track crossover near the East Falls Church station just outside the SafeTrack work zone on the Orange and Silver lines. (TWP)

BALTIMORE The Justice Department is expected to announce today the findings of its investigation into whether the Baltimore police force had a pattern of violating citizens’ constitutional rights, according to an official familiar with the probe. The probe was launched following the April 2015 death of Freddie Gray, a 25-year-old black man whose neck was broken while he was handcuffed and shackled but left unrestrained in the back of a police van. The official, who was not authorized to discuss the matter and spoke on condition of anonymity, said Tuesday that the government’s report was expected the
following day. A Justice Department spokesman did not immediately return messages. The report will mark the culmination of a federal civil rights investigation into potentially unconstitutional practices, including excessive force and discriminatory traffic stops, in one of the country’s largest police forces. Federal investigators spent more than a year interviewing Baltimore residents, police officers, prosecutors, public defenders and elected officials, as well as riding along with officers on duty and reviewing documents and complaints.

U.S. troops move closer to front lines in Libya LIBYA U.S. Special Operations forces are providing direct, on-theground support for the first time to fighters battling the Islamic State in Libya, U.S. and Libyan officials said, coordinating American airstrikes and providing intelligence information in an effort to oust the group from a militant stronghold. The positioning of a small number of elite U.S. personnel alongside British troops in the coastal city of Sirte deepens the involvement of Western nations against ISIS’ most powerful affiliate.
U.S. officials said the American troops were operating out of a joint operations center on the city’s outskirts and that their role was limited to supporting forces loyal to the country’s fragile unity government. Robyn Mack, a spokeswoman for U.S. Africa Command, said small numbers of U.S. military personnel would continue to go in and out of Libya to exchange information with local forces. The expanded on-the-ground role follows the Obama administration’s decision earlier this month to begin airstrikes on ISIS
positions in Sirte, the group’s de facto capital in North Africa. Since the strikes began about a week ago, U.S. planes have struck almost 30 militant targets. The limited size of U.S. operations around Sirte reflect the balancing act the Obama administration must strike as it seeks to help local forces while not undermining the country’s fragile unity government. Last month, Libyans protested France’s military footprint in Libya after the death of French troops revealed their presence there. MISSY RYAN AND SUDARSAN RAGHAVAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Orphaned animals want your old furs It’s safe to say we humans remain conflicted about wearing animal fur. But if you’re on the animals’ side of this debate, and you inherit your grandmother’s mink coat, what is the right thing to do? One answer: Help orphaned baby animals. It seems animals that have lost their mothers like to snuggle up to fur, according to several organizations that will happily collect your donated items and give them a second life at wildlife rehabilitation centers. Born Free USA, an animal welfare and conservation group that collects fur, says the baby and adult critters find the garments cozy, comfy and comforting.

Erdogan and Putin agree to mend ties RUSSIA The leaders of Turkey and Russia pledged Tuesday to restart key energy projects and roll back sanctions, taking bold overtures to rebuild ties as Turkey looks beyond its NATO partners for support following a failed coup last month. In his first trip abroad since the attempted takeover by the military, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan openly courted Russia — in vivid contrast to Turkey’s previous bitter hostilities with Moscow over disputes that include being on opposite sides in Syria’s civil war. Erdogan called Russian President Vladimir Putin “my dear friend Vladimir” at talks in the Konstantinovsky Palace near St. Petersburg. The Turkish leader repeatedly thanked Putin for his rapid offer of aid following the coup attempt, and called for relations between the two countries to return “to their pre-crisis level, or even higher.” The negotiations marked the first face-to-face meeting between Erdogan and Putin since Turkish fighter jets shot down a
Russian Su-24 warplane over the Syrian border last September, bringing the regional rivals to the brink of war and sparking a political crisis. While the two leaders emphasized their renewed economic cooperation, they avoided topics in the first round of talks that could undercut the high-level outreach. Those included the conflict in Syria, where Moscow backs President Bashar al-Assad, and Turkey supports his enemies. Also sidestepped in public: compensation that Russia wants Turkey to pay for the death of its pilot. In discussions he called “constructive,” Putin said that Russia would gradually lift economic sanctions from Turkish companies, seek to resume charter flights to bring tourists to Turkey, consider resuming imports of Turkish agricultural products and take other steps to repair economic cooperation. Erdogan, in turn, said he would resume talks on a natural-gas pipeline from Russia to Turkey, and said he would grant special status to a planned nuclear power plant that Russia is to build in Turkey. In June, Erdogan sent a personal apology to Putin for the downed warplane. Putin had called the attack a “stab in the back by the accomplices of

terrorists” — a reference to Erdogan’s support for Syria’s rebels. But Putin accepted the apology and appeared to signal a detente. The negotiations are likely to elevate concerns in the West over Turkey’s political direction as it employs increasingly authoritarian measures in the wake of the failed coup. In a climate of heightened anti-Western sentiment, Erdogan’s move to warm relations with Russia may cement Turkey’s alienation from
its traditional allies, analysts say. The Erdogan-Putin meeting “is a big deal,” said Soner Cagaptay, director of the Turkish Research Program at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy. “For the first time in recent memory, there is serious discussion of Turkey’s NATO membership,” he said, and some Turkish officials are questioning whether Turkey should move toward Russia.

When police were called to the home of an elderly couple in Rome who had been heard in hysterics last week, they found a 94-year-old man and his 89-year-old wife in tears, overcome by loneliness and despair over the state of the world. The four officers stayed, talked with the couple about their lives and cooked them a meal of pasta using spaghetti, butter, cheese and, as a department Facebook post put it, “a precious ingredient: their humanity.” (TWP) UNICEF: Fighting in Syrian city of Aleppo has left 2 million residents without water
The Islamic State has looted or destroyed a large portion of the archaeological site of Tal Ajaja in northeastern Syria, Agence France-Presse reports. Khaled Ahmo, director of antiquities in Hasakah province, where the ancient site is located, told AFP that “more than 40 percent of Tal Ajaja was destroyed or ravaged” by the group’s fighters. After having overrun the area in 2014, ISIS fighters were pushed out of sections of Hasakah in recent month by a campaign led by Kurdish militias. In the wake of the militants’ departure, the extent of the damage they wrought is being steadily discovered. Located about 30 miles from the border with Iraq, Tal Ajaja is one of a series of vast Mesopotamian mounds rich in artifacts and relics going back about three or four millennia. In 2014, video emerged of ISIS militants smashing Assyrian statues at the site. According to the extremist group’s apocalyptic creed, representations of deities and sites of pre-Islamic worship are worthy of destruction. ISIS has also developed a lucrative, illicit trade in smuggling antiquities it chooses not to destroy. In Tal Ajaja, the militants dug tunnels in previously untouched areas of the site and unearthed hitherto unknown treasures — most of which have disappeared. ISHAAN THAROOR

A call to action? Or to arms? Trump urges ‘Second Amendment people’ to fight Clinton on judges POLITICS Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, speaking at a rally in Wilmington, N.C., on Tuesday, appeared to encourage gun owners to take action if Hillary Clinton is elected president and appoints judges who oppose gun rights. Trump said Clinton “wants to abolish, to essentially abolish the Second Amendment,” a charge she has flatly denied. He said that if Clinton becomes president, she could appoint judges who would leave Americans nearly helpless on this front. “By the way, and if she gets to pick — if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks,” Trump warned. “Although the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don’t know.” It was not clear whether Trump was inciting gun owners to use their weapons against judges or a sitting president, or was encouraging some other action. Trump campaign senior communications adviser Jason Miller released a statement shortly after the comment, swatting down the idea that Trump was suggesting any form of violence. “It’s called the power of unification — 2nd Amendment people have amazing spirit and are tremendously unified, which gives them great political power,” Miller said in the statement.

POLITICS Hillary Clinton wants to get as close as possible to Michael Phelps and Simone Biles. So she’s spending more than $13 million on political ads during the Olympics. But Donald Trump hasn’t aired a single general election ad yet — a decision that baffles some political strategists. “I’d love to know what they’re waiting for,” said Will Ritter, a Republican ad maker and veteran of Mitt Romney’s presidential bids. Trump’s avoidance of political norms such as advertising “cannot survive the professionalized deconstruction that Hillary is doing every day,” he said. During the three weeks of Olympics coverage, Clinton’s campaign is spending $8 million on the national NBC network, $1.1 million more on affiliated cable channels Bravo, USA and MSNBC and $4.5 million on local affiliates in key presidential battleground states such as Florida, according to Kantar Media’s political advertising tracker. While Trump’s campaign has requested advertising rates from stations in key states, including Florida, the Olympics are slipping beyond his reach. “It’s a little early to spend,” Trump said during a rally in New Hampshire over the weekend. “You know it’s like the racehorse, right? Hangs back, hangs back, hangs back. And I think we’ve got some pretty good ads. But we don’t want to go too fast.”

“And this year, they will be voting in record numbers, and it won’t be for Hillary Clinton, it will be for Donald Trump.” Clinton’s campaign was also swift to respond to Trump’s comments. “This is simple — what Trump is saying is dangerous,” Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said in a statement. “A person seeking to be the President of the United States should not suggest violence in any way.” Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., a Clinton supporter and staunch gun-control advocate, tweeted: “Don’t treat this as a political misstep. It’s an assassination threat, seriously upping the possibility of a national tragedy & crisis.”

Donald Trump campaigns in North Carolina Tuesday with former New York Mayor Rudi Giuliani.
Other political candidates have stoked controversy in the past by suggesting that Americans use the Second Amendment to the Constitution to rise up against the government. For example, Republican Senate candidate Sharron Angle said in 2010 that if Congress “keeps going the way it is, people are really looking toward those Second Amendment remedies and saying, my goodness, what can we do to turn this country around?” The Second Amendment states: “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.” Some who attended the rally
argued Trump was not trying to incite violence with his comments. “In no way was he threatening Hillary,” said Sarah Smith, a 72-year-old retiree. “Anybody who thinks that is delusional.” Smith said she thought Trump was simply making a comment about the importance of gun rights and the threat posed by judges appointed by the Democratic nominee. “The Supreme Court is all-important,” she said. James Renaud, 66, said he took the comment “at face value” — meaning gun owners have to mobilize lest Clinton be able to stack the Supreme Court. “It was just off-the-cuff talking.” SEAN SULLIVAN AND ISAAC STANLEY-BECKER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Baby’s death linked to Zika Texas newborn is first in U.S. known to have died from the disease HEALTH The death of a newborn girl in the Houston area has been linked to the Zika virus, Texas public health officials said Tuesday. The infant’s mother had traveled to Latin America during her pregnancy and was infected there by the virus, according to the Department of State Health Services. Her baby acquired the virus while in the womb and was
born with microcephaly, a rare congenital condition that can cause an abnormally small head and underdeveloped brain. “Zika’s impact on unborn babies can be tragic, and our hearts are with this family,” Jon Hellerstedt, the Texas health commissioner, said in a statement. “Our central mission from the beginning has been to do everything we can to protect unborn babies from the devastating effects in Zika.” Several other cases of babies with microcephaly have been documented in the U.S. in recent months — and some women with

Zika have chosen to have abortions after ultrasounds showed a high likelihood of serious complications — but the Texas case appears to be the only one in which a microcephalic infant died shortly after birth. Texas officials said Tuesday that 97 travel-related cases of Zika have been reported there, including two infants with microcephaly in Harris County. As of July 28, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention was monitoring 479 pregnant women with Zika in the U.S., and another 493 in U.S. territories. BRADY DENNIS (TWP)

REVERSE TYPE II DIABETES You’re Invited to a
Free Gourmet Meal and Diabetic Event
Here is what Drs. Chaney’s patients are saying... “When I started my A1C was 12.5 - it was terrifying. The program to me was life changing. When I thought I was eating right they let me know that what I was eating was good for some people but it wasn’t good for me. I thank God for Dr. Steph and Dr. Tom Chaney because they turned my life around.”
“I am reporting to you three years after joining the program. I am 50 pounds lighter, I am happier, healthier and my A1C is no longer 13 but 5.4.” -Glennis G.
-Milton A.
“I can not tell you how great I feel. My energy is way up and my sleep is so much better. I am thrilled with Dr. Tom and Dr. Steph for helping me regain my personal health and reverse my diabetes.”
-Barry B.
“When I started this program my A1C was 8.9. My current A1C is 5.7. I was taking Metformin and two types of blood pressure medications. My blood sugars before the program were running in the 180’s. Now my blood sugars are running in the 110’s. After 2 months in the program my doctors stopped my Metformin that was phenomenal! I’ve also lost 25 pounds.”
“My first visit was very pleasant. My second visit is what changed my life. I have been a patient for 6 months. My A1C has gone from 6.6 to 5.7. I started out 70 pounds heavier. But coming to Living Health wasn’t about weight loss it was about type 2 diabetes. As you can see from my numbers that my type 2 diabetes has been reversed which is the intent of the program.”
“I came to this program because my A1C had drastically gone up to 9.2 and I was 215 pounds. Six months into the program my A1C dropped from 9.2 to 6.2 and my weight has dropped from 215 pounds to 195.”
“All I can say is it really works. I’ve been in the program for 5 months and I feel like a whole new woman. I’ve lost 40 pounds, I’m not on any diabetic medication anymore - that stopped pretty quick! My A1C went from 7.8 to 6.”
-Marissa M. My A1C was 8. Two months after that it was 6.4. As of a couple of days ago it is 5.9. I am ecstatic about that. I can only hope...I know, not hope, I know...that my blood sugars have come down, so the weight will come off. The blood pressure, I’ll be off of that medication. I have no doubt that I’ll be off of my diabetes medication and it’s all thanks to the Drs. Chaney and their facilities and I’m so happy.”

rio2016 From left, Aly Raisman, Madison Kocian, Laurie Hernandez, Simone Biles and Gabby Douglas show off their gold medals.
‘Final five’ finishes first U.S. women’s gymnastics team caps off perfect Rio Games with a golden finale GYMNASTICS Dominant. Peerless. Golden. Just call them the Final Five. The U.S. women’s gymnastics team gave retiring national team coordinator Martha Karolyi a fitting send off Tuesday night, putting on a two-hour display of precision and class. Their score of 184.897 in the team final represented a blowout, more than eight points clear of second-place Russia. The nickname the U.S. team revealed for itself is a nod to 2020, when teams will be made up of four members, not five. T he A mer ic a ns’ second straight Olympic team triumph and third overall was never in doubt. From the second Laurie Hernandez drilled her opening vault to Simone Biles’
boundary-pushing floor exercise at the end, the U.S. put on an exhibition that showed how far the divide between its team and every other nation’s has become. It’s a gap that Karolyi, 73, created from scratch since taking over for husband Bela in 2001. She’s molded the U.S. program into a ponytailed juggernaut. As Karolyi watched the final from the front row, her team seemed totally immune to the pressure. Maybe that’s because for Hernandez, Biles, Gabby Douglas, Madison Kocian and Aly Raisman, the meets are fun. The toughest competitions happen in quiet at the regular training camps Karolyi carefully oversees. When the lights come on, it’s time to let loose.
The only moment of tension Tuesday came early. When Hernandez was introduced to the crowd, Raisman nudged her and told her to wave, which the 16-year-old did with a smile. Barely five minutes later, the youngest member of Team USA was all business. Her doubletwisting Yurchenko put the machine in motion. Raisman, who won three medals in London four years ago, followed with perhaps the finest vault of her long career. When Biles drilled her Amanar and put up a 15.933 — the highest score of the day — the U.S. was already in the lead. Yet it’s not just enough for Karolyi for her team to win. She stopped measuring the
Americans against everyone else long ago. The coach wants there to be no doubt. And there wasn’t. The U.S. went through 28 rotations over two days, just like the other seven teams that made the team final. Unlike the other seven, the Americans didn’t slip off uneven bars. While the gold was never in doubt, you wouldn’t have known about it by watching Karolyi. She clutched the white railing in front of her during Biles’ floor routine, nodding with approval with each gravity-escaping tumbling pass. After Russia, which wasn’t sure it would even be included in the games until just days before the opening ceremony, China took bronze. WILL GRAVES (AP)

Lochte’s Games begin with small role for U.S. Reality TV star and owner of 11 medals will swim just 2 events
AP
SWIMMING When Ryan Lochte arrived in London, there was a stir each time he walked the pool deck. Women swooned over his every movement. Swimmers wondered at his abilities and accomplishments. How many Olympians end up with their own reality show? Tuesday afternoon, though, he quietly dove into the pool at Olympic Aquatics Stadium and began his fourth Games. He had dyed his hair a blue-ish silver. Is that what it takes for Lochte to get noticed now? “I think I had more of a target
on my back in 2012,” Lochte said. “But since the past couple of years haven’t been up to par for my standards, I think I’m the underdog now. ” Lochte’s swim Tuesday afternoon came as the anchor leg of the men’s 4x200-meter freestyle relay. Along with the 200 individual medley, it was one of just two events he will swim in Rio de Janeiro. Earlier this summer, Lochte failed to make the U.S. team in the 400 IM. “I wasn’t used to that,” Lochte said. “But just watching Team USA ... especially [Monday] night really got me going.” Lochte’s Tuesday swim went just fine, and it was likely he would have one more in Tuesday’s final, which ended after
52
Express’ deadline. The U.S. team, with Lochte as an anchor following Clark Smith, Jack Conger of Rockville and Gunnar Bentz, won its heat in 7 minutes, 6.81 seconds, just behind Great Britain (7:06.31) in the second heat. Including Michael Phelps, Lochte’s roommates in Rio have put swim caps on the wall and tallied medals underneath them. Lochte has 11 medals in his Olympic career, but his spot on the wall was blank entering Tuesday night. “I love being on those blocks and racing,” he said. “Sitting back in my room and watching the finals, I was like, ‘Man, I can’t wait till it’s my time.’ Now it’s ours, and I think we’re just going to keep the ball rolling”

Building on a breakthrough After scoring 11 times last year, Jordan Reed still wants to improve WASHINGTONPOST.COM THE EARLY LEAD
Tebow to take a swing at new career in MLB JOHN McDONNELL (THE WASHINGTON POST)
REDSKINS As he watched Washington tight end Jordan Reed tear through secondaries last season, left tackle Trent Williams sensed his friend had something special fueling him. Reed, who had always flashed potential during his first two seasons in the NFL, had financial incentive. He wanted to stay healthy and play well enough in 2015 to earn a contract extension. But Williams had seen plenty of financially motivated guys before. This was different. “He was so intense, ... I never felt like it was about the money for him,” Williams said. “I always felt like he wanted to leave his legacy on this game. I’m real close friends with him, so I see the fire in his eyes every day.” Reed impressed, recording 87 catches for 952 yards and 11 touchdowns. Last spring, he signed a five-year deal worth $46.75 million, which gave him the third-highest average yearly salary among tight ends behind Seattle’s Jimmy Graham and Kansas City’s Travis Kelce. Although the compensation

was gratifying, the tight end confirmed Williams’ suspicions of a stronger driving force. Actually, there are two, Reed said. “One thing that I always think about is my last name on my back, representing my family,” he said. “And, I’m a very competitive person. I always want to be the best at whatever I do. That’s what drives me.” Avoiding complacency is one of the biggest keys to achieving success in the NFL. After a

season like last year, Reed feels like he has a target on his back. In an effort to continue growing, Reed studies players such as Graham and New England’s Rob Gronkowski and tries to implement their strengths. “Seeing guys like Gronkowski and the things he’s been able to do makes me believe I can do those kinds of things, too,” Reed said. Coach Jay Gruden said Tuesday that Reed will miss Washington’s preseason opener in Atlanta
to receive treatment on a sprained left thumb. Overall, Gruden has been impressed with the fourthyear tight end’s development. “I think he’s stronger. He was a puppy when he came in here physically; now he’s filling out and he’s a bigger guy,” Gruden said. “He’s playing with a ton of confidence. ... He’s got big strong hands and he’s excellent after the catch Really, the sky is the limit for Jordan.” MIKE JONES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

With his NFL dream fading, Tim Tebow is “actively pursuing” pro baseball, according to what his agents told ESPN’s Adam Schefter. The Heisman Trophy winner was cut by the Patriots in 2013 and the Eagles last year. He plans to invite all 30 MLB teams to a workout later this month, the ESPN report says. Tebow playing baseball isn’t as far-fetched as it might sound. He hit .494 with four home runs as a junior at Florida’s Nease High, according to NFL.com, and was an all-state outfielder. Tom Kotchman, a Red Sox scout who used to work for the Angels, told WEEI’s Rob Bradford that the Angels “were going to take him” if Tebow had returned his information card to the team. “He was a left-handed hitter with strength and some size. He stood out. He was bigger and stronger than everybody. … It was just easy for him.” said Stephen Hargett, who works with Kotchman as a Florida scout. “You thought, if this guy dedicated everything to baseball like he did to football, how good could he be?” Tebow will turn 29 on Sunday. It isn’t clear yet whether he’ll generate real interest or what position he might play. Tebow has not played baseball in 11 years. He has been training with former MLB catcher Chad Moeller for most of the last year, Schefter reports. CINDY BOREN

on The Dabney’s open hearth
The talent (chef Vikram Sunderam) and owner (Ashok Bajaj of Knightsbridge Restaurant Group) may be the same, but don’t think this is a clone of the super-popular Rasika. Bindaas, which takes over some of the space formerly occupied by adjacent sibling Ardeo + Bardeo, focuses on street food. Sunderam says “the idea always was to project different regions” of India on the menu, which is broken into sections of chaat (savory snacks), kathi rolls and pao (wraps and buns), shashlik (kebabs), uttapam (rice pancakes) and naan (bread), as well as fish and vegetables. So you’ll find a Goan pork sausage and pao (a kind of sandwich with a soft, griddled roll, popular in Mumbai) filled with North Indian chicken (tikka masala) or South Indian lamb (roast masala). And for something with a whiff of America, there’s always the bacon chili naan. Bajaj says Bindaas is the kind of place to go “when you’re not in the mood to eat curry,” the dish synonymous with India that you won’t find anywhere on the menu here. Prices range from $4 to $15. Bindaas will serve Indian beer and whiskey, 60 wines by the bottle and 18 by the glass, plus four signature cocktails and two mocktails. BECKY

“That wouldn’t happen in a lot of other cities.”
Washington City Paper: Southern restaurant Live Oak opens Friday in Del Ray
DAYNA SMITH (THE WASHINGTON POST)
AWARDS Bon Appetit magazine has named Washington its restaurant city of the year “Oh, my gosh,” says Genevieve Villamora, co-owner of Bad Saint, who’s still recovering from last week’s news that the magazine had named her tiny Filipino eatery one of its top 50 new restaurants of the year, along with locals The Dabney and Tail Up Goat. “That is so exciting. Wow.” Post food critic Tom Sietsema says the award shows that “the national media are discovering what those of us who live here, and care about eating well, have known for the past few years: Washington is a food mecca that gets more mouthwatering by the season. One-of-a-kind meals can be enjoyed at all price levels, and some of what the city’s chefs are doing is being emulated elsewhere in the country. Given the current political environment, it’s especially encouraging to see Washington getting toasted rather than roasted.” Bon Appetit deputy editor Andrew Knowlton says he experienced genuine excellence during his 10 or so days and 30 to
40 meals in the nation’s capital. In addition to the three aforementioned top-50 spots, Knowlton says his local favorites also included Aaron Silverman’s Pineapple and Pearls (recent recipient of a four-star review from Sietsema), Eric Ziebold’s Kinship and Alex McCoy’s recently closed and relocating Alfie’s. Among what impresses Knowlton about the city is a willingness to experiment and open “cool, rad restaurants,” including Bad Saint and The Dabney, the latter of which has a commitment to cooking over a live fire. “That’s nuts,” Knowlton says of the work chef-owner Jeremiah Langhorne is doing around The Dabney’s open hearth. “That wouldn’t happen in a lot of other cities.” Villamora agrees that the city is full of buzz surrounding relative newcomers who are pursuing their culinary passions, but she also gives credit to veterans such as Jose Andres (Jaleo, Minibar, Zaytinya, etc.), Peter Pastan (Obelisk, 2 Amys, Etto) and Johnny Monis and Anne Marler (Komi, Little Serow), “who have been toiling for a long while and sowed the seeds” of the dining renaissance we’re experiencing. Knowlton guesses many people around the country still aren’t aware of Washington’s exciting culinary scene, and he says he’d

Both men advanced to Tuesday’s final, Phelps in second place and Le Clos in third.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You and a friend discover something new in common, and it’s likely to be much more than skin deep. Is it time to reveal a secret? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Ask for help, but realize that, depending on whom you ask, you may get much more than you originally bargained for. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20)
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.

Someone’s behavior is likely to raise an eyebrow, but you may find you are the only one reacting in this fashion. Ask yourself why.
TODAY: Partly to mostly cloudy, hot and humid with a chance of showers and storms. Highs in the low 90s with high humidity. Clouds prevent us from getting too hot, but it’ll still feel uncomfortable. Very warm, humid, and partly to mostly cloudy tonight with lows from 75 in the suburbs to near 80 in the city.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) You are able to turn a disadvantage into an advantage. Trust in your ability to turn someone else’s frown upside down. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You may fear the tempest that is fast approaching, but remember that after every storm comes a welcome calm. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You may have no reason to indulge in any private concerns, but you’re suspicious of the road that lies ahead. Forward motion cures all ills.

EVIL PLANS
Miranda Kerr shared the secret to the thriving garden at her home in California: a gift from her fiance, Evan Spiegel. “Obviously I’m aware of the drought problem in California,” she told Harper’s Bazaar. “This [Skywater 300] system really just pulls water out of the sky.” The magazine explained that it draws moisture from the air’s humidity.

Alec Baldwin helped a child with a lemonade stand this weekend in Manhattan’s Greenwich Village. A source told the New York Post that the actor bought a 50cent cup of lemonade for everyone standing in line, “and gave the kid a $20 tip.” The 8-year-old had set up a small table to sell the lemonade on University Place and had a Radio Flyer wagon to transport supplies.

Less-muscled men anger The Rock Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson took to Instagram on Monday to vent about his “Fast 8” co-stars. “My female co-stars are always amazing and I love ’em,” he wrote. “My male co-stars however are a different story. Some conduct themselves as stand up men and true professionals, while others don’t. The ones that don’t are too chicken s--- to do anything about it anyway. Candy asses.” Johnson’s male co-stars include “The Fast and the Furious” veterans Vin Diesel, Tyrese Gibson, Jason Statham, Ludacris, Kurt Russell and Lucas Black. Costar Scott Eastwood is new to the franchise. (EXPRESS)
