A California man is suing Heineken and the parent company of Ralph’s Grocery, claiming that a can of the beer he bought had two geckos sealed inside, Business Insider reports. George Toubbeh says he bought the brew in Fountain Valley in 2015 and noticed a “foul taste” after drinking one. When he became violently ill, he said, his daughter examined the can and found the dead lizards. Heineken says his claims are baseless. (EXPRESS)

Redskins get a ticket to ride RICHMOND NA SC A R driver a nd avid Washington Redskins fan Dale Earnhardt Jr. treated quarterback Kirk Cousins and four other players from the team to ride-arounds at Richmond Raceway on Tuesday before heading to the team’s practice complex to watch their afternoon workout. Earnhardt started by giving Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney a ride in a two-seat NASCAR racer, with Stoney exclaiming, “I survived” after climbing from the car. The race car then had mechanical issues, and Earnhardt took Redskins Will Compton, Cousins, Ryan Kerrigan and Morgan Moses for rides in a new Chevrolet Camaro. Earnhardt said he reached about 115 mph heading into one of the turns with Compton in the car. By the time Josh Norman, the last player to take a ride, was ready, the race car had been repaired. Norman rode with Earnhardt in the race car, then

in the Camaro. Cousins poked a little fun at his contract situation after his ride. The third-year starter is in his second season with the Redskins’ franchise tag because he and the team have not been able to agree to a long-term deal. He will make $23.94 million as the first NFL player to have the franchise tag in consecutive seasons. “One more franchise tag and I may have to buy some

Going over 100 mph that close to the wall, he said, is “unbelievable.” Following Redskins practice, Earnhardt squared off against cornerback Norman in a oneon-one drill, catching a short slant over the middle on an out pattern. On his third and final play, Earnhardt ran a stop-and-go past a politely plodding Norman, but Cousins slightly overthrew him and told Earnhardt, “I didn’t want it to get intercepted.” Earnhardt, NASCAR’s most popular driver for the past 14 years, is retiring after this season and has just four races remaining to qualify for the 10race NASCAR playoffs. With drivers’ schedules typically packed with appearances and other obligations, spending a day with the Redskins was “a dream come true,” he said. It also was a nice break from the pressure of focusing on having just four opportunities remaining to keep his championship hopes alive. “It makes you forget about it a little bit, being able to come out here,” Earnhardt said.

ACLU suing Metro over rejecting ads Group: Transit agency’s restrictions violate the First Amendment COURTS The American Civil Liberties Union is suing Metro, alleging the transit agency’s restriction on “issues-oriented” advertisements violates the First Amendment. The lawsuit also challenges Metro’s rejection of ad campaigns representing a wide political spectrum: the abortion provider Carafem, PETA, altright writer Milo Yiannopoulos and the ACLU itself. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Washington, centers on four ads: a PETA ad that encouraged people to “Go Vegan,” an ad for an FDAapproved abortion pill, a promo for a book by Yiannopoulos, and an ACLU campaign that highlighted a quote from the First Amendment. All were either rejected outright by Metro — based on its advertising guidelines that prohibit ads that are “intended to influence members of the public regarding an issue on which there are varying opinions” — or were pulled from stations, trains and buses after riders complained. “In its zeal to avoid hosting offensive and hateful speech, the government has eliminated speech that makes us think,

The ACLU argues it was unconstitutional for Metro to reject advertisements from Carafem, PETA, Milo Yiannopoulos and one it submitted itself.

including the text of the First Amendment itself,” Lee Rowland, senior staff attorney with the ACLU, said Wednesday. The ACLU wants Metro to post the rejected ads and eliminate components of its ad guidelines that ban issues-oriented ads or limit medical and health-related advertising. Metro said Wednesday that it continues to believe its current policy is the correct approach. “[Metro] intends to vigorously defend its commercial advertising guidelines, which are reasonable and viewpoint neutral,” spokeswoman Sherri Ly said. The lawsuit is the latest installment in a years-long effort by Metro to develop an advertising

policy that strikes a balance between curtailing hate speech and adhering to the values of free speech. Advertising is a significant revenue source for Metro. This year, the agency expects to make $24 million through advertising. The system’s location in the nation’s capital makes it prime real estate for those who want to make political statements, and it has often been at the center of such disputes since its opening 40 years ago — from posters that criticized President Ronald Reagan and the Catholic Church, to those advocating the legalization of marijuana, to the antiabortion movement.

Md. man in fatal car crash says he had smoked PCP

Homebuyers lose $1.5M to home-title scammer

Federal prosecutors will not file criminal charges against a D.C. police officer who shot and killed an unarmed motorcyclist last year, saying they have concluded the shooting was justified, according to two officials with knowledge of the investigation. Officer Brian Trainer was a passenger in a police cruiser early in the morning of Sept. 11, 2016, when he and a partner blocked the path of a motorcycle driven by Terrence Sterling, 31, of Fort Washington, Md. Trainer, 28, shot Sterling after police said the motorcyclist intentionally drove into the cruiser door as the officer was climbing out. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

A man whom D.C. police say crashed a vehicle in Northeast D.C. early Saturday, killing a passenger and causing the car to burst into flames, told authorities he had smoked PCP before driving, according to court documents. The defendant, Lavonne D. Beckett, 39, of Hyattsville, Md., has been charged with negligent homicide. Records show he remained hospitalized with injuries to his back, knees and hands. The affidavit says his blood alcohol level measured zero, though according to the court document Beckett told police that he had drunk a half-pint of 100 proof vodka after he got off work hours earlier.

The bogus email appears to have followed the apparent hacking of Federal Title and Escrow. The company said it’s working with the FBI investigation. The company said no other customers appear to have been affected. (AP)

Seeking ‘menstrual equity’ Some lawmakers join effort to assure women have needed products

New dinosaur was largest to walk the Earth ALLISON SHELLEY (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

SOCIAL ISSUES A topic that for so long was rarely discussed above a whisper has recently been taken up by growing numbers of lawmakers. Spurred by grassroots activism aimed at lifting the stigma surrounding menstruation, the lawmakers are proposing measures to provide broad access to menstrual products for women. Their efforts include exempting tampons and pads from state and local taxes, compelling prisons to stop charging inmates for the supplies and making them available free at public schools and workplaces. “It’s outrageous that something that is a basic health need should be denied women,” said Sen. Cory Booker, D-N.J., who co-sponsored a bill last month with other Democratic senators that would require free access to menstrual products as part of a proposal to promote basic rights for incarcerated women. “It’s something that needs to be talked about. People should not be shy about putting it right up front,” Booker said. The most far-reaching legislative push has been to eliminate the sales tax on tampons and pads. Sometimes called the “pink tax” or “period penalty,” the tax on the products has been called unfair. Some observers say the items should be deemed essential, like food and medicine, and

similarly exempted. Since 2016, two dozen of the 40 states that tax the products have introduced legislation to eliminate the tax. Four states — New York, Illinois, Connecticut and Florida — approved sales tax exemptions, along with the cities of Chicago and Washington. But although D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser signed the bill, the budget the council approved did not include funding to cover the $3.3 million price tag, so the tax remains. In Virginia, a bill that would have eliminated the tax died in subcommittee this year. Maryland does not tax tampons. Opponents of tax-exemption laws say they are often unwarranted and impractical. Hygiene products are not life-sustaining

Embarrassing dilemma Terrionna Thomas, a student at Roosevelt STAY, an alternative high school in D.C., said she found herself questioning whether to go to school one day when her supply of sanitary pads was low and she wasn’t sure she could make it through the day. She said there is no full-time nurse, and the tampon dispensers are usually empty. She said a security guard sometimes has pads on hand. (TWP)

in the way that food and medicine are, they say, adding that repealing the tax reduces revenues for programs that serve the poor. The movement for “menstrual equity” is being pushed by thousands of women who

are intimately familiar with the anxiety and embarrassment that comes from not having a tampon or pad when they need one. “Women get it,” said Dana Marlowe, an IT consultant in Wheaton, Md., who founded a nonprofit called Support the Girls that distributes menstrual products and bras to homeless women. Marlowe and others are also pushing to make the products easily available to other poor women and to girls in public schools. “When I first started talking about this issue, you could see a lot of men — and some women — were uncomfortable,” said Rep. Grace Meng, D-N.Y. “But the climate is changing. There is more openness.” MICHAEL ALISON CHANDLER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

After negotiations, Taliban frees 235 villagers held in northern Afghanistan

SCIENCE A study published Tuesday in the journal Proceedings of the Royal Society B. proclaims a newly named species the heavyweight champion of all dinosaurs, making the scary Tyrannosaurus rex look like a munchkin. At 76 tons, the plant-eating behemoth was as heavy as a space shuttle. The dinosaur’s fossils were found in southern Argentina in 2012. Researchers who examined and dated them said the long-necked creature was the biggest of a group of large dinosaurs called titanosaurs. The researchers named the dinosaur Patagotitan mayorum after the Patagonia region where it was found and the Greek word titan, which means large. The second name honors a family that hosted the researchers. Six fossils of the species were dated to about 100 million years ago, based on ash found around them. The dinosaur averaged 122 feet long and nearly 20 feet high at the shoulder. Legendary T. rex and other meat-eaters “look like dwarfs when you put them against one of these giant titanosaurs,” said study co-author Diego Pol of the Egidio Feruglio paleontology museum in Argentina. Scientists have known about titanosaurs for a while, but this is a new species and a new genus, which is a larger grouping, Pol said. Another titanosaur, called Argentinosaurus, was previously thought to be the largest. SETH BORENSTEIN (AP)

The search warrant was wideranging and FBI agents working with special counsel Robert Mueller departed the home with various records. Jason Maloni, a spokesman for Manafort, confirmed that agents executed a warrant at one of Manafort’s homes and that Manafort cooperated with

the search. The significance of the records seized from Manafort’s apartment is unclear. Manafort has been voluntarily producing documents to congressional committees investigating Russia’s interference in the 2016 presidential election. The search warrant indicates investigators may have argued to a federal judge they had reason to believe Manafort could not be trusted to turn over all records in response to a grand jury subpoena.

Copper mug is bad kick in Moscow mule

Crowds claim that police shot a man in the violence during post-election unrest in Kenya’s capital, Nairobi.

Amid violence, Kenya awaits results from vote At least 3 have been killed after challenger alleges election fraud NAIROBI, KENYA Kenyan police opened fire Wednesday to disperse rioters in several areas after presidential challenger Raila Odinga alleged election fraud, saying hackers used the identity of a murdered official to infiltrate the database of the election commission and manipulate results in favor of President Uhuru Kenyatta. At least three people were killed. As Kenyatta held a strong lead in provisional results with 96 percent of all polling stations counted, the election commission defended the voting system as secure, saying there were “no interferences before, during and

after” Tuesday’s election. Election officials were verifying the final tallies Wednesday night. By law, election officials have up to a week from the election to announce the results. Odinga, a former prime minister, blamed Kenyatta’s Jubilee Party for the alleged hacking. “The fraud Jubilee has perpetuated on Kenyans surpasses any level of voter theft in our country’s history. This time we caught them,” he tweeted. Angry protesters in the Nairobi slum of Mathare and poor areas in the opposition stronghold of Kisumu in the southwest burned tires, set up roadblocks and clashed with police. Two people were shot dead in Nairobi as they took advantage of the protests to loot, Nairobi police chief Japheth Koome said.

Police killed one person when they opened fire on protesters in another opposition stronghold in Kisii County. The violence stirred memories of the unrest that followed the 2007 vote, in which more than 1,000 people were killed. Odinga on Wednesday claimed that hackers used the identity of Christopher Msando, an election official in charge of managing information technology systems. On July 31, officials announced that Msando had been tortured and killed, alarming Kenyans who feared a recurrence of political violence. Rafael Tuju, a top official in Kenyatta’s party, said the opposition’s claims were unfounded, and Kenya’s election commission said it would investigate.

The Moscow mule has only a few ingredients — vodka, ginger beer, lime and ice — but perhaps the most crucial component of the drink is the copper mug in which it’s almost always served, aficionados say. However, the Iowa Alcoholic Beverages Division says that copper should not come into contact with acidic foods with a pH below 6 because it can cause the copper to leach into the drink, possibly leading to copper poisoning. A traditional Moscow mule has a pH “well below 6.0,” the agency says. Instead, use a mug with a nonreactive metal lining. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

In a rare flexing of U.S. nuclear might, Trump tweeted Wednesday that his first order as president was to “renovate and modernize” an arsenal that is “now far stronger and more powerful than ever before.” The suggestion was immediately disputed by experts, who noted no progress to enhance U.S. nuclear firepower under Trump’s presidency. This week, an official Japanese report and a classified U.S. intelligence document, as reported by The Washington Post, suggested that the North was closer to being able to strike the U.S. with a nuclear missile than previously believed. After North Korea issued its own warning to the U.S.,

THREAT SPECTRUM

Be very scared! Or … don’t. What should we make of President Trump’s threat to unleash “fire and fury” on North Korea if it continues to provoke the U.S.? Reactions by public figures have done little to answer that question. Here’s a sampling of comments, ranging from reassuring to apocalyptic. (EXPRESS)

LILLIAN SUWANRUMPHA, JACQUELYN MARTIN (AFP/AP)

Trump team swings between alarm and reassurance on threat

Trump advisers Rex Tillerson, left, and Jim Mattis struck different tones Wednesday when discussing North Korea.

suggesting it could attack the American territory of Guam, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson sought to calm the sense of crisis. Speaking on his way home from Asia, he credited Trump with sending a strong message to the North Korean leader on the “unquestionable” U.S. ability to defend itself, so as to prevent “any miscalculation.” Tillerson insisted the U.S. isn’t signaling a move toward military action, while it pursues a policy of sanctions and isolation of North Korea.

“Nothing that I have seen and nothing that I know of would indicate that the situation has dramatically changed in the last 24 hours,” Tillerson said. No sooner had Tillerson ratcheted down the rhetoric than Defense Secretary Jim Mattis ratcheted it back up. Mattis said North Korea should stand down its nuclear weapons program and “cease any consideration of actions that would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people.” As seldom as it is

Guam in its sights North Korea’s state-run media said early Thursday that “only absolute force” can work on someone as “bereft of reason” as Trump. It added that the military will complete a plan to attack Guam by mid-August, convey it to the commander in chief and then “wait for his order.” (AP)

for a president to speak of using nuclear missiles, the reference to the “destruction” of a foreign people is equally rare.

It was unclear, however, how serious to take the war talk. Markets weren’t rattled by the back-andforth threats. Trump had no meetings on his schedule Wednesday. There were no indications from the Pentagon of urgent planning or new assets being hastily deployed to the Pacific region. The “fire and fury” proclamation that Trump delivered was his own message, his spokeswoman said Wednesday. “The tone and strength of the message were discussed beforehand” with advisers, White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said. But she said: “The words were his own.” The alarmist tone sparked criticism among Trump’s political opponents in the U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer said, “Reckless rhetoric is not a strategy to keep America safe.” Fellow Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein said the volatile situation needs diplomacy, “not saber rattling.” Trump loyalists rejected criticism of the president. “These are the moments when we have to come together as a nation and support the executive, whether you voted for him or not,” Trump adviser Sebastian Gorka told Fox News.

We’re doomed!

“God has endowed rulers full power to use whatever means necessary — including war — to stop evil. In the case of North Korea, God has given Trump authority to take out Kim Jong Un.” — Texas megachurch pastor Robert Jeffress, one of President Trump’s evangelical advisers, who preached the morning of his inauguration

We’re fine!

“Nobody in the world, especially not North Korea, comes close to challenging our military capabilities. … So this message is very clear: Don’t test this White House, Pyongyang.” — White House adviser Sebastian Gorka, likening this situation to the 1962 Cuban missile crisis

North Korea says it released a Canadian pastor serving a life sentence on humanitarian grounds

“I believe we might need a complete defense reform at the level of a rebirth instead of making some improvements or modifications.” — South Korean President Moon Jae-in, telling top commanders that there’s an “urgent” need to secure defense capabilities to counter North Korea’s escalating nuclear threats

“This is not the time to panic. … I’ve gotten assurances from all levels, both local command and Washington D.C., that this island will be defended.”

“I think Americans should sleep well at night, have no concerns about this particular rhetoric of the last few days.”

— Guam Gov. Eddie Calvo, encouraging the community to remain calm after North Korea said it’s considering striking the U.S. territory

— Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who stopped in Guam on Wednesday to refuel on his way back to the United States

THREE POINTERS

Ravens’ concerns

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

First test for Redskins

Injuries all over the roster, the notable retirement of lineman John Urschel and the argument over adding QB Colin Kaepernick have made this a turbulent offseason for the Ravens. (EXPRESS)

COACH JAY GRUDEN HAS TREATED PRESEASON GAMES AS NEEDLESS TASKS in his first three years with Washington. But

after previous low-key summers led to slow starts in the regular season, he might open up the playbook and test his players a little more this year, beginning with tonight’s opener against the Ravens in Baltimore (7:30, CSN). Gruden said Tuesday that he didn’t know how long he would leave starters in the game, but he told everyone to be ready to play. Of course, this is also an opportunity for reserves to compete for spots. Here are five players to watch tonight.

3 Defensive line

THE WASHINGTON POST AND AP

Timmy Jernigan was traded to the Eagles, and Lawrence Guy signed with the Patriots. Both were starters, so Brent Urban and Michael Pierce moved up the depth chart.

Terrelle Pryor Sr.

Junior Galette

Kirk Cousins

Jonathan Allen

James Quick

Wide receiver

Outside linebacker

Quarterback

Defensive end

Wide receiver

With speed to make him a threat downfield and 6-foot-4 height to help in the red zone, he’s supposed to be the Redskins’ big playmaker this year. As a free agent on a one-year deal, he can earn major money with a second straight 1,000-yard season. But how long will it take to get in sync with Kirk Cousins? Can Pryor handle double coverage, which will come tonight since receivers Josh Doctson and Jamison Crowder are out with strained hamstrings. If the Redskins decide to run plays for him, Pryor could shine tonight. But it’s more likely that he’ll haul in a couple of short receptions.

His potential has been a big tease since the former Saints pass rusher signed with the Redskins two years ago. Galette has never made it to a preseason game, suffering a season-ending torn Achilles the first week of two straight camps. All indications are that he’s regained his quickness, and Washington loved his potential and leadership enough to re-sign him at a well-stocked position. When healthy, Galette has shown he can produce double-digit sacks. As long as Galette simply avoids injury tonight, his long-anticipated Redskins debut will be a success.

His $24 million arm has looked steady throughout camp. Cousins, whose pay this year is guaranteed under the franchise tag, has thrown a few picks, but nothing awful. One thing he hasn’t done well in the past two years is throw the fade pass in the end zone. Gruden can call it tonight because there’s no reason to hide it from opponents — everyone knows he loves the route. Cousins played in two preseason games last year and looked rusty in September. He needs live reps with Pryor, especially on the deep ball, although Gruden might keep the throws short tonight.

The first-round pick has looked good against backups in camp. Tonight he could get a chance to rush against Ravens starters for a series before playing against the second unit. It’s been hard to judge Allen in the offseason and camps because linemen need live action to truly show their capabilities. He’s coming along but needs to improve on preventing offensive linemen from grabbing him. At 6 feet 3 and 288 pounds, he’s not big enough to overpower opponents. Quickness is his edge. The preseason will show if he’s ready to be a regular right away.

Every camp has a sleeper, and the undrafted rookie from Louisville is this year’s. He reminds me of former Redskins wideout James Thrash. Quick holds the Kentucky state high school record in the 200 meters (20.94 seconds) and has flashed as a kick returner in camp. The Redskins are deep at receiver so Quick will have to contribute in other ways, but the same thing was said about Thrash before he took two kickoffs back for touchdowns in the 1997 preseason. Thrash had a 12-year career. A couple big returns from Quick tonight would help him earn a roster spot.

Andy Murray pulls out of Cincinnati event because of hip injury, as he tries to get fit for U.S. Open

2 Tight end Dennis Pitta was let go after he had a third serious hip injury. Listed starter Nick Boyle has 24 career catches. Veteran Benjamin Watson is back from a torn Achilles.

1 Quarterback Joe Flacco’s back injury has kept him out of camp. Colin Kaepernick has been mentioned, but he’s still unsigned, so Ryan Mallett will be scrutinized tonight.

3-GAME SUSPENSION

MONUMENTAL SPORTS

Ump’s words about Beltre get him tossed

An image with the new name superimposed shows Verizon Center’s new look. The actual signs will change this fall.

Capital One takes over as sponsor of D.C. arena 10-year, $100M deal aids budget of owner of Wizards and Capitals

GETTY IMAGES

BUSINESS Washington’s downtown sports arena is changing names, effective immediately. Monumental Sports and Entertainment made the switch official Wednesday, announcing that Verizon Center is now called Capital One Arena. The signage and branding makeover will happen this fall, but there’s already a new logo for the Chinatown venue, which opened as the MCI Center in 1997. A source familiar with the arrangement said the deal is worth $100 million over 10 years. That confirmed an earlier Bloomberg report and is believed to be a significant jump over what

Monumental received per year from the previous deal. Barclays reportedly pays $10 million a year for naming rights to the home of the Brooklyn Nets. TD Garden pays a reported $6 million a year in Boston. JPMorgan Chase signed a 20-year naming rights deal for the yet-to-be-opened home of the Warriors that’s worth a reported $15 million a year. The previous naming rights arrangement was negotiated by former Wizards and Capitals owner Abe Pollin. Current owner Ted Leonsis has said repeatedly that he was seeking a more teamfriendly deal. He told The Washington Post last year that the mortgage of the privately owned arena is about $36 million a year, and that he has “the worst building deal in professional sports.” The

100

Verizon deal was set to expire in 2018, but McLean-based Capital One’s involvement accelerated the schedule. Monumental is also making a separate $40 million investment in the building, with the money going toward a data-based effort to analyze fan preferences and a new point-of-sale system meant to create more efficient lines. Leonsis’ financial concerns could be ameliorated by the new deal, which is significant as the Wizards will exceed the NBA’s luxury-tax line for the first time. Aside from hosting Caps and Wizards games, the arena also hosts arena football and Georgetown basketball. The Mystics have long played downtown but are scheduled to move to a new facility in Southeast in 2018.

MLB’s senior umpire today will serve the final day of his three-game suspension without pay for comments he made about Texas third baseman Adrian Beltre. In a USA Today report published June 20 to coincide with Joe West’s 5,000th regular-season game, West named Beltre when asked who was the biggest complainer in the majors. “I told him, ‘You may be a great ballplayer, but you’re the worst umpire in the league. You stink,’ ” West said of Beltre, whom West said often argues balls and strikes. Beltre said he knew West, 64, was kidding and disagreed with the suspension. (AP)

NFL Network’s Michael Silver reported that the new deal pays $41.25 million ($8.25 million per year) with $22 million in guarantees.

Sam Sanders NPR PODCAST HOST

Fans couldn’t believe their earbuds when reporter Sam Sanders announced in December that he would be leaving the “NPR Politics Podcast” — Sanders, 32, was a big reason the show was able to have fun while making sense of the 2016 election. In June, he debuted his new project, “It’s Been a Minute With Sam Sanders.” The podcast explores politics and pop culture as a conversation among friends — with plenty of “Real Housewives” jokes along the way. Sanders, who’s lived in D.C. off and on for eight years, shared how he and some pals would spend a perfect day in this town. My day starts early with a run. I’ll start at my place in NoMa down south until we get to Navy Yard and chill on the Anacostia Riverwalk Trail. I’m usually either listening to incredibly profane rap music or extremely high-tempo EDM. The one thing I love about D.C. is the one thing I also hate about D.C.: There’s a lot of good restaurants but the good ones always have a line. I love to be the first person at Le Diplomate. They open up at 9:30 a.m. on Saturdays and Sundays, so we’d be at the door at 9:29. My go-to is the duck sarladaises — it’s like a duck hash with potatoes and egg.

and the coffee is perfect. Then we’d head to the liquor store I always go to, Schneider’s of Capitol Hill, and get some stuff to make mid-afternoon cocktails. Then we would get to Crispus Attucks Park. It’s like hidden behind houses and buildings. So we would head there with our cocktails. I’ve been on a martini kick recently, but we could do a vodka-lemon-cucumber summery drink too. Then after that we would hightail it over to Bantam King. We’d get ramen, but we’d also be sure to get the side dish that’s just white rice with chicken fat and butter. One of my favorite things to do while recovering after a meal is people-watching. So

we’d people-watch in Chinatown on the steps right outside of the American Art Museum. My favorite people-watching game is you pick a random person and you create their life story. Whoever has the best life story for this person wins. At this point, we need to hit the clerb. The best music on U Street is Lounge of Three. It’s this undiscovered jewel — it’s like solid, classic hip-hop and R&B. It’s a hot sweaty mess, but it’s perfect. By then we would be hungry again. The best option would be going to Oohh’s & Aahh’s, for some of the best soul food in the city. Here’s the secret though: Don’t get takeout! Order the shrimp and grits, no cheese, and then sit upstairs and eat it. (AS TOLD TO LORI McCUE)

weekendpass Q+A | JOE MANDE

It’s a good time to be a troll THE LAST TIME COMEDIAN JOE MANDE performed in D.C., Donald

Trump had just been elected president days earlier. “That was a weird weekend,” Mande, 34, recalls. He ended up working some off-the-cuff bits about the incoming administration into his sets at Drafthouse Comedy, including one about Mike Huckabee being named ambassador to Chick-fil-A. That joke and others made their way into his first hour-long stand-up special, “Joe Mande’s AwardWinning Comedy Special,” which arrived on Netflix last month. At his wife’s urging, Mande almost stopped doing a bit about watching ISIS videos, but he changed his mind after the election. “I was like, well, nothing matters anymore,” Mande says. “That joke is NETFLIX AND THINKSTOCK/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

the most fun I have onstage and we have a 71-year-old clown as our president, so who cares?” Mande, who writes for NBC’s “The Good Place” and has appeared on “Modern Family” and “Parks and Recreation,” regularly trolls the president and his supporters on Twitter, so it’s only natural that today’s bizarro political landscape would seep into his sets. On Saturday, Mande returns to D.C. for a

show at Sixth and I’s Downstairs venue. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) Your special is very meta. It begins and ends with cameoladen sketches about you trying to win a Mark Twain Prize-like comedy award. What made you want to approach the special in that manner? I think a lot of one-hour specials have a very familiar feeling — there’s a certain rhythm that I was trying to break free of. Especially on Netflix, which is releasing a special nearly every week. It helps you stand out. I have an issue where, if I’m gonna do something, I’ll probably somewhat overdo it. But also a lot of stand-up specials start with a pointless sketch. Why even do it if you’re not gonna do it? Then that became a challenge for me:

How can I turn it up a notch. A lot of your material seems to come from your experiences or things you’re thinking about. How does something go from an idea to a joke? Often what happens is I’ll be watching, say, a documentary that will make me so crazy and then I will realize all the stuff I’m saying out loud could be turned into a bit. Or something embarrassing or humiliating will happen and then I’ll immediately know, well, this will be stand-up in a couple of weeks. You’re not a joke-heavy comedian, either. It’s sort of a longer-form thing where it’s a story punctuated

What led you to troll Trump and his supporters on Twitter? When I first downloaded Twitter, the first thing I realized was, Wait, I can just directly make fun of Mike Huckabee? I can like write to him? This is incredible! And there’s basically no consequences. I did get in a little trouble for a few tweets — there are a couple of low points in my Twitter career — but for the most part it’s just this very strange alternate universe where everyone is a demon and is saying the worst thing that comes to their mind and, well, I’m good at that and now we have a president who also excels at the same thing. That’s something you could find common ground with him on. Yeah, he’s the G.O.A.T.

Twitter is a “strange alternate universe where everyone is a demon and is saying the worst thing that comes to their mind and, well, I’m good at that.” Does it get exhausting to try to keep up, or to just read the things some of these people tweet? I have a [Twitter] list of Trump idiots. I would say two or three times a day I will hold my breath and open up the list and scroll through and see if anything catches my eye, but it’s not like I see those tweets all day long. I’m already on the brink of insanity but that would probably push me over the edge. I also get alerts whenever Pitbull tweets anything.

Do you get alerts for anyone else? It’s honestly just Pitbull and my wife, which I think says a lot. You did most of the special’s material the last time you were in D.C. Will you have new stuff this time? It’s a mixture. A lot of the stuff didn’t make the special, so I’m gonna do stuff that didn’t make the cut. I’m reworking that stuff, and doing some new stuff. Who from the administration or Trump family would you most want to be at your show? Honestly, I would love if Jared Kushner were there and I could see him. I would love to direct some thoughts towards Jared Kushner. How would you sum up the state of America right now? This is the dumbest time to be alive and we should savor it.

“Whose Streets?” documents the anger and fear incited by the fatal shooting of Michael Brown.

‘Whose Streets?’ “Whose Streets?” is an unflinching, on-the-ground documentary about the protests in Ferguson, Mo., after the 2014 shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager, by a white police officer. Directed by activists Sabaah Folayan and Damon Davis, “Whose Streets?” isn’t exactly objective, but it does provide a compelling, passionate look at those who took to the streets to protest not only Brown’s death, but also the city’s long-simmering racial tensions.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER

The late show: My long night at the museum a dinosaur. Brigitte Blachere, a Smithsonian Associates program manager, called us to order. “Tonight, you’ll be going on an extreme exploration,” she said, explaining that we would be following the directions in our workbooks to 11 stations around the museum. At each station, we’d complete a few tasks to earn a stamp, and if we got all 11, we’d be official Smithsonian Junior Explorers. Before she let us go, Blachere had the kids make a pledge. “Repeat after me,” she said. “I promise. To have fun. And to make sure. My adult. Participates in all the activities. And puts away their cellphone.” The kids shouted that last bit with zeal. It was 8 p.m. by the time we were let loose in the museum, which gave us about three hours to complete all the tasks in our workbook. We raced to our first assigned zone: Mammal Hall. Task No. 1 was to find examples of “extreme” mammals, such as the largest living rodent. Tori and I roamed the 25,000-square-foot hall searching for giant rats for about 10 minutes before Colette told us the answer she knew all along. “It’s a capybara,” she said. “They live in South America. Dad ate one once.” Even with Colette’s help, we were well behind schedule when we got to the next station, the “Human Origins” section of the museum. A museum

I woke up Saturday morning next to a large jar of something disgusting. “Agg, worms!” I exclaimed. “Actually, those are krill,” explained Colette, sitting up in her sleeping bag. “They pretty much form the foundation of the ocean food web,” she added, paraphrasing a label on a nearby wall. That was just one of the many things I learned while camping overnight at the National Museum of Natural History, which, like many D.C.-area institutions, offers folks the opportunity to spend the night for around $135 a person (see chart). Despite the hefty price tag, these programs — which include an evening’s worth of educational activities — are wildly popular and sell out quickly. Why are people so eager to sleep on an uncomfortable floor in a room full of strangers? And why are they paying to hang out in a museum that’s usually free? I had no idea, which is why I enlisted my friend Tori, 36, and her daughter Colette, 9, to join me on this sleepover and find out. The three of us arrived at 7:30 p.m., just in time for the official briefing. As we entered the museum’s main cafe, we were given a supply kit with a flashlight pen, a workbook and a sugar cookie in the shape of

National Air and Space Museum’s Udvar-Hazy Center

volunteer gave us our mission: “You’re a hunter-gatherer and you have to collect plants and animals for your tribe.” The food was pictured on cards scattered around the exhibit. The cards were pretty easy to find, and we gathered more than a dozen in just a few minutes. “This is a lot easier than the first section,” I said. I was wrong. When we turned in our cards, the volunteer informed us that we had just poisoned our entire tribe. “This is oleander,” she said, pointing out a card depicting a plant with lovely pink flowers. “It’s highly toxic.” She sent us back into the wilderness to try again. We eventually succeeded at the task, which earned us a chance to chuck a spear at a cardboard cutout of a buffalo. After a few of her throws fell short, Colette ran up to the buffalo and clobbered it with the spear. “Colette!” I yelled. “That’s cheating.” “Maybe humans evolved to cheat,” she replied.

Pro tip: Case out potential sleeping spots before bedtime. Taking Colette’s quip as inspiration, Tori and I assessed our situation and realized there was no way we were going to make it to all of the activity stations. So instead of following the directions in the book, we decided to wander around and look for the activities that seemed the most fun. This turned out to be a great strategy, one that led us to a marine biologist magician who seemed to make specific fish appear on his socks, a darkened exhibit full of skeletons that we explored by flashlight, and a station where we attempted to eat marshmallows like a T. rex — without using our hands. It was about 10 p.m. when I parked myself at a table with kids making totem poles out of

paper towel tubes. A woman explained that we would be modeling our totem poles on the ones created by American Indian tribes from the Pacific Northwest, but as far as I was concerned, the main point of this activity was sitting. I was beat, and so were the two 12-year-olds at my table. “Why are we getting sleepy?” the boy asked. “I don’t even know,” the girl replied. “Every time I learn, I get sleepy.” As the two decorated their tubes, I noticed their father peering intensely at his lap. He was on his smartphone, I realized. Cheater! Luckily for him, his kids were too involved in coloring to notice and I, pretending to craft in order to sit, was certainly not going to turn him in. When activity time wrapped up at 10:45 p.m., my team had completed only seven of the 11 stations. I surveyed a few other adults, and most teams had similar results. “I don’t

think there’s a prize or anything,” one kid quipped. It was time for us to pick the places where we’d bed down for the night, and the moment was fraught. I knew we didn’t want to be anywhere near the perpetually squeaking escalators, and any spot too close to a bathroom was sure to be subject to night-long foot

traffic. We settled on a corner of an exhibit about the Arctic Ocean. There was a little more taxidermy present than I would have preferred — a polar bear loomed over us, and birds peered out at us from glass cases with little beady eyes. But the semi-privacy of three partitions was unbeatable, so we set up there.

Despite my strange camp companions, I fell asleep almost immediately. The next morning, I padded through Ocean Hall and took a look around. Though I would have preferred to sleep in my own bed, there is something undeniably magical about being in a quiet, dark museum. Mummies, animals, skeletons

— they all take on an eerie luminescence, as if they might come to life. So if you have the cash and a kid, or a friend with a kid, consider spending the night at your favorite museum. Just be sure to wear comfy sneakers. And look out for krill. In two weeks, The Staycationer visits the Supreme Court.

The future, as it used to be DAR Museum explores innovations of old with its take on a world’s fair

COLUMBIAN GALLERY DAR MUSEUM

MUSEUMS Get out your bloomers and your mustache wax. On Saturday, the Daughters of the American Revolution Museum is hosting its World’s Fair, inspired by the expos that took place in Chicago in 1893 and St. Louis in 1904. World’s fairs were not your average county fairs. Beginning in the mid-1800s, countries and cities vied for the honor of hosting them and spent millions in the name of civic and national pride, says Hayley Prihoda, the DAR Museum’s assistant curator of education. “They were kind of like the Olympics, in that they were an opportunity for the host country to show off,” she says. The Midwestern fairs at the turn of the 20th century were a particularly big deal, Prihoda adds. Over six months, the Chicago World’s Fair attracted an estimated 27 million people, including nearly a quarter of the U.S. population at the time. The planners erected hundreds of temporary buildings for the event, a task that cost more than $46 million, the equivalent of about $1.2 billion today. The goal? To get Americans excited about the future at a moment of major social and economic change. “It was very much a transitional period,” Prihoda says. “A lot of people were scared about the rapid changes they were seeing, but they were also excited about the new possibilities opening up.” Demonstrations of new inventions, such as electricity and the Ferris wheel, encouraged people to see technology as wondrous and fun instead of scary and dangerous. Of course, modern Americans don’t need to be convinced that electricity is useful and safe, so the DAR Museum educators will show how centuryold innovations paved the way for

the tools we use today. For instance, the stereoscope — which was among the tech on display at the Chicago fair — presented viewers with two photos at slightly different angles in order to create an illusion of depth, presaging 3-D movies. “We bought a [replica] stereoscope that people can try out, and we are going to use some of our collection items to facilitate a conversation about how the zoetrope

and the stereoscope and all these technologies helped people move toward what would later become film,” Prihoda says. “I hope [visitors] can get a taste of why people were excited about these things and I hope it gets them thinking about how the tools we use today are the product of hundreds of years of development.” Many iconic American foods were also popularized at these long-ago world’s fairs, and the

DAR will be handing out samples of some of them, including cotton candy, puffed rice, Dr. Pepper and Popsicles. Prihoda says the beaux-arts DAR Memorial Continental Hall is the perfect place to host a retro world’s fair, because it features an architectural style that was popularized at the Chicago fair. In fact, the DAR organization and its collection of colonial-era furniture (which is on permanent display in the DAR Museum) were born from ideas seeded at the Chicago and St. Louis fairs. “The world’s fairs were about embracing the future, but at the same time, people were looking back at early America and becoming nostalgic for our colonial past,” Prihoda says. “A lot of museums, including ours, came out of asking how we can maintain an American identity in turbulent times, and that’s a question I think is still relevant today.” SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

With no signature combinations to choose from, diners act as the architects of their poke bowl ($10.99-$12.99) at this Penn Quarter newcomer. Order from a choice of seven proteins (including tuna, sous vide chicken); 17 toppings (mango, corn, tangerine); six crunchy add-ons (rice puffs, garlic crisps); and seven sauces, including a sweet strawberry variety (huh?). Poki District founder Gary Ngo says six more locations are in the works across the city.

Poké Papa 806 H St. NW

This poke shop’s best-selling bowl is also one of its most basic. Dubbed the Onolicious ($12.99), it’s made with ahi tuna, lotus root, ginger, sesame, scallion and onion. More elaborate combinations include ingredients like octopus, jalapeno and a spicy “lava sauce.” You can also construct your own bowl ($10.99-$14.99) with the menu’s dizzying array of toppings, including crab salad and coconut flakes. Poké Papa serves its poke over white rice, brown rice, mixed greens or black rice for a dollar surcharge.

Abunai Poke 1920 L St. NW

Harada founded her food truck, Abunai, two years ago, serving classic Hawaiian dishes. In April, she expanded her empire to include a brick-andmortar poke shop downtown. The menu is composed of five signature bowls ($10-$13.50) she describes as “authentic with a modern approach,” plus a build-your-own option ($12.50). This shop will appeal most to purists: The Abunai, for example, is made simply with ahi, rice, onion, fish eggs, seaweed and inamona, a nut-based condiment popular in Hawaii.

HIRSHHORN MUSEUM AND SCULPTURE GARDEN

Echoes of the Great War: American Experiences of World War I.

Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden: “Ai Weiwei: Trace at Hirshhorn” portrays activists, advocates of free speech and prisoners of conscience in 176 portraits comprised of thousands of Lego blocks. The work centers on the artist’s personal experience in 2011, in which he was detained by the Chinese government and kept under surveillance for 81 days and then prohibited from traveling abroad for four years, through Jan. 1.

entertainment STAGE

Colin Jost and Michael Che are back to deliver some fake news.

NBC

Springsteen is coming to Broadway

‘Weekend Update’ is primed for prime time Anchors Michael Che and Colin Jost finally know what works TELEVISION It’s been almost three years since Colin Jost, 35, who skipped from Harvard graduation to the “Saturday Night Live” writers room, and Michael Che, 34, a late-blooming stand-up who first started at “SNL” in 2013 as a guest writer, succeeded Seth Meyers on “Weekend Update.” They found their groove behind the fictional news desk during the sketch show’s triumphant past season, but it did take some time to get there. “I read the news like an anchor,” recalls Che, the comedy institution’s first black anchor. “I didn’t know how to do it.” “And also alternating,” says Jost. “All right, you do one joke, I do one joke. You do two, I do two. And it’s a setup and a punchline.” Critics attacked Che for flubbing lines and Jost for his schoolboy smirk. But “SNL” boss Lorne Michaels stuck with them, and it’s paid off. Starting tonight, Che and Jost will host the first

of three prime-time “Weekend Update” specials meant to capitalize on “SNL’s” post-Trump ratings boost while the show is on summer hiatus. The duo delivering these summer updates is vastly different from the stiff and awkward pair who premiered in late 2014. Che and Jost have abandoned Meyers’ relentless pace for a looser, more conversational approach. That allows them to react to each other and the studio audience. They’ve also become more comfortable after 63 episodes behind the desk. “They really broke out of what had been the style of what ‘Update’ was,” says Meyers, who,

“This last year there was no part of [‘Update’] that felt like a shadow of what we were doing before I left.” SETH MEYERS, affirming the positive changes Michael Che and Colin Jost have made to “Weekend Update”

with eight years as anchor, was “SNL’s” longest-running newsjoker before inheriting NBC’s “Late Night” from Jimmy Fallon. “Certainly, this last year there was no part of it that felt like a shadow of what we were doing before I left.” Jost, who started at “SNL” in 2005 at 22, has been there so long, it’s pointless to list the sketches he’s contributed to. But his comic sensibility is not hard to pin down. “He likes wordplay, he likes silliness, he likes anthropomorphizing inanimate objects,” says Dennis McNicholas, head producer of “Weekend Update.” “There’s a real innocence to Colin’s love to comedy. I’m hesitant to say it’s childlike, but it’s got that quality.” Che says their different comedic sensibilities make for a winning dynamic at the desk. “I like more pointed things,” says Che. “Colin is so creative and abstract with certain things. He goes more toward absurdity. Which is almost the opposite direction. You pull from him, and he pulls from me and then you get a good thing.” GEOFF EDGERS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Selena Gomez, Elle Fanning, Timothee Chalamet to star in Woody Allen’s untitled next film

Bruce Springsteen will make his Broadway debut onstage this fall at the Walter Kerr Theatre in a solo show in which he performs songs from his career interspersed with readings of his best-selling memoir “Born to Run.” He said Wednesday on his website that “Springsteen on Broadway” begins previews Oct. 3, ahead of an Oct. 12 opening at the intimate 960-seat venue. The eight-week run is expected to play through Nov. 26, and Springsteen will perform five shows a week. “I wanted to do some shows that were as personal and as intimate as possible,” the Rock and Roll Hall of Famer said in a statement. “My show is just me, the guitar, the piano and the words and music.” (AP)

‘Despacito’ has Latin beats all over pop radio MUSIC “Despacito” is the song of the summer to beat: Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee’s track, which features Justin Bieber, has topped Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart for 13 weeks, has set a record as the most streamed song on Spotify and is now the most-watched video in YouTube history. The song has also opened doors for other Latin tracks to get on American radio. “In a very organic way, the whole world just connected to it,” says Fonsi, adding “Despacito” wasn’t meant to be a crossover song. But after the original track was remixed to add Bieber’s vocals, it spent 14 weeks atop Spotify’s global chart — until last week, when it was supplanted by J. Balvin’s “Mi Gente,” another Latin song tearing up the charts. “I don’t think this is just something that happened overnight,” says Rocio Guerra, Spotify’s head of Latin culture. “It’s something the Latin music industry and creative community, we’ve been working so long toward this direction.” Daddy Yankee became the first Latin artist to reach No. 1 on Spotify in June. Latin beats can also be heard on current Englishlanguage hits as well, including DJ Khaled and Rihanna’s “Wild Thoughts” and French Montana’s “Unforgettable.” “I think it was [over]due for Latin music to get this attention,” Fonsi says. “I hope that it’s a door that will stay open for a long time.” MESFIN FEKADU (AP)

“Him: What’s [your book] about? Me: It’s a book about how men explain things to women and ... Him: Oh, so it’s a book about men mentoring women!” about an older man offering to mentor her in a subject he didn’t know about while she was reading “Men Explain Things to Me,” by Rebecca Solnit. Sharp’s anecdote went viral for perfectly illustrating the term “mansplaining.”

Do you get anxious in front of others? Do you feel embarrassed if you have to give a speech or perform at a public function? Do you avoid meeting new people, going to parties, or dating? Is it difﬁcult to eat, drink, or write while others may be watching you?

“Thank you to everyone who posted & sent me this.” @FELLAINI, Manchester United’s Marouane Fellaini, taking this hilarious photo of himself in stride. Associated Press photographer Boris Grdanoski captured the exact moment when Fellaini took a ball to the face Tuesday in the game his team lost to Real Madrid. Fans responded by sending him wacky Photoshops of the picture.

“These people expect me to pay for Netflix, Hulu, Apple Music, Spotify, Tidal, HBO, Showtime, Amazon, AND Disney? “

“Soon the White House staff is also going to have to start giving @realDonaldTrump daily participation trophies.”

@MAIA_MAGNIF, tweeting about the news that Disney plans to add yet another streaming service to the marketplace. Disney is pulling all of its movies from Netflix to start its own streaming service in 2019. Netflix said Disney movies will remain available through the end of 2018.

@STANSUNDEL, reacting to a report from Vice News that President Trump gets a folder of positive news about himself twice a day. It reportedly contains anything from screen shots of positive cable news chyrons to nice tweets or “just pictures of Trump on TV looking powerful.”

Sudoku

DIFFICULT

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You will want to look back at a certain period in your life marked by prodigious success. What was true then that isn’t true now? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Confidence is on the rise, but you may encounter danger as a result — especially if you don’t put common sense above all else. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may be sensing that something is slipping away, but in fact, you are much more in control of what is happening. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You don’t want to do anything that attracts the wrong kind of attention. Follow the rules and do what you are told — at least for now. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You don’t have to be told twice to do what is required of you. You know what is at stake, and just how you can influence others.

WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Take care that you don’t overreact when something happens that goes against the grain. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) What you want and what you need will both finally come your way, and you will be sent into a new phase of opportunity and potential.

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.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Your activities are favored, and a rival is likely to be left behind as a result. This is not a permanent state of affairs.

TODAY: If you’re looking for a difference between today and Wednesday, it’s really just the potential for increasing clouds later in the afternoon. Otherwise we should see plenty of sun again for much of the day, with similar highs in the low to mid-80s, and the humidity still in check. Skies turn mostly cloudy tonight.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) What you consider a setback at first may, upon closer examination, prove to be a golden opportunity — but an adjustment will be required. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Someone close to you is trying to get even closer, but is that something that fits into your overall game plan? It’s time for honest talk.

BABIES

New dad has a lot of fart jokes, probably

Oprah giving out bad gifts for once Oprah Winfrey has teamed with food giant Kraft Heinz to launch her own line of refrigerated soups and side dishes for consumers to buy in supermarkets. The new brand, called O, That’s Good!, will offer comfort foods with added vegetables, such as mashed potatoes with cauliflower mixed in. “This product line is real, delicious food with a twist,” Winfrey said in a statement. (EXPRESS)

Andy Samberg and his wife, singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom, have welcomed their first child, a baby girl. A representative for the “Brooklyn NineNine” actor confirmed the baby’s birth Tuesday, but did not provide details about the child’s name or when she was born. “It’s wonderful,” Samberg said about fatherhood at a Television Critics Association panel in Los Angeles on Tuesday. “It feels fantastic. That’s a new project, yes. That takes up a lot [of time].” When asked about any lack of shut-eye tending to the new baby, Samberg said he was “trained” by working on “Saturday Night Live,” adding, “when you work there, you don’t sleep.” (AP/EXPRESS)

My bad @diplo,” paired with a series of crying-face emoji. (EXPRESS)
