Police are urging anyone who recognizes a man accused of robbing at least three St. Louis-area Walgreens stores while wearing jean shorts to call “the fashion police.” St. Louis County Police dubbed the suspect the “jorts-wearing bandit” in a tweet Monday. The tweet said his “disregard for the law is as offensive as his disregard for fashion trends.” Jorts, once a staple for many men, have regained some popularity among hipsters. (AP)
An 84-year-old woman who lost her engagement ring in 2004 never expected to see it again. But her daughter-in-law recently found it while harvesting carrots on their farm in Alberta, Canada, The Telegraph reported Wednesday.

Grams, who got the ring in 1951, was thrilled. “I’m going to wear it because it still fits,” she said. (EXPRESS)

Capitals rank No. 1 in D.C. fan satisfaction
But the church will be renovating the Kensington temple, starting in March 2018. And that means, as Bethesda Magazine noted Monday, that there will be a brief window, when the renovations are complete and before the rededication, when the temple will not yet be dedicated and thus will be open to non-Mormons. Mark your calendars for 2020. That’s when you’ll get to take your tour. At the Kensington temple, guests have always been welcomed at the visitors center adjacent to the temple, and on the
grounds, where the church puts on a spectacular Christmas light show. In a statement, the church said that the temple itself needs updates to its mechanical systems and new furnishings and fixtures. The temple isn’t used for worship services. Those take place in meetinghouses and chapels, which are open to any guest who wants to attend a service on any Sunday. Instead, Mormon temples host weddings and adoption ceremonies, and offer members quiet places for prayer and reflection. JULIE ZAUZMER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

KENSINGTON, MD. For anyone who drives around the Capital Beltway, the soaring white spires are a familiar sight — and yet a complete mystery to most. Maryland children have grown up believing that the fairy-tale building was Disneyland. Drivers sitting in maddening Interstate 495 traffic have likened the building to the Emerald City so often that pranksters started writing “Surrender Dorothy” on the nearby bridge. Finally, for the first time since the 1970s, all those curious onlookers will finally have their chance to peek inside. It’s not Oz; it’s the temple of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Kensington. The Mormon Church allows only members inside its 156 working temples. So, since this one opened in 1974, only the Washington area’s approximately 40,000 Mormons have had access.

City hauls off rebel statues
Judge denies D.C. sniper his bid for new sentence
in Baltimore had pledged to take the statues down themselves on Wednesday evening. Protesters in Durham, N.C., toppled a monument to Confederate veterans on Monday night. Greg Baranoski was walking his dog in Baltimore’s Mt. Vernon neighborhood just after midnight Wednesday morning when he saw a crew taking down the statue of Roger B. Taney, the Marylander who as U.S. Supreme Court chief justice wrote the Dred Scott decision denying citizenship to blacks. The work crew took just 40 minutes. “It was the fastest thing I’ve ever seen the city do,” Baranoski said. “It was amazing.” Baranoski said that until recently, he admired the monuments as pieces of art even though he didn’t agree with “what they stood for.” But he said in the past few days, he came to believe the monuments should be removed. He suggested replacing the statue of Taney with one of Baltimore native Thurgood Marshall, the nation’s first black Supreme Court justice. “It’d be super poetic to replace the statue of Chief Justice Taney with Justice Marshall,” he said.
Firm: Study on increasing minimum wage flawed
BALTIMORE Confederate monuments in Baltimore were quietly removed and hauled away on trucks in darkness early Wednesday, days after a violent white nationalist rally in Virginia sparked by plans to take down a similar statue there. Mayor Catherine Pugh said crews began removing the city’s four Confederate monuments late Tuesday and finished about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday. Pugh made the decision Tuesday morning to remove the statues that night, her spokesman Anthony McCarthy said at a news conference Wednesday. “As soon as I realized they were easy to move,” Pugh said. Pugh said the removal was done overnight deliberately, in order to avoid attention. “It was important that we move quickly and quietly,” Pugh said, “and that’s what we did.” Elliott Cummings, a member of the Maryland Sons of Confederate Veterans, denounced Pugh’s “barbarism and Talibanesque actions” in tearing down

Lee and Thomas J. “Stonewall” Jackson onto a flatbed truck in the dark. “I did what was right for my city,” Pugh said. “Any city that has Confederate statues has concern about violence occurring in their city.

A man convicted in 2003 of taking part as a teen in deadly sniper attacks that terrorized the D.C. area has lost a bid for a new sentence. Montgomery County Circuit Judge Robert Greenberg said in a ruling dated Tuesday that Lee Boyd Malvo’s “physical, mental and emotional state” was given full consideration before he was sentenced to life without parole. Attorneys for Malvo, 32, say his sentences should be thrown out because the Supreme Court has ruled that mandatory life sentences for juveniles are unconstitutional. (AP) MONTGOMERY COUNTY
The study that projected massive job losses in Montgomery County if the hourly minimum wage increased to $15 is flawed, according to the group that did the survey. PFM initially predicted 47,000 jobs would be lost by 2022 if the county raised its hourly minimum wage. But on Sunday the group recognized “a computation error,” said PFM Managing Director Dean Kaplan. PFM is now reexamining its methodology and expects to have a revised projection, which it expects will be lower than the initial estimate, Kaplan said. (TWP)

More brown water on way, utility says
MAYOR MURIEL BOWSER PRESENTS
LABOR DAY WEEKEND
MARYLAND More Maryland residents will see brown water flow from kitchen taps, showerheads and washing machines over the next several weeks as discolored water makes its way from a Potomac River filtration plant into more homes and businesses, utility officials said Tuesday. Carla A. Reid, general manager of the Washington Suburban Sanitary Commission, said the water remains safe to drink and use but called it “unacceptable” from “an aesthetic standpoint.” She said the problem stems from changes required to treat an unusually large amount of organic matter — decayed leaves and grass — that has washed into the Potomac during recent heavy rainstorms.

people in Montgomery and Prince George’s counties, said that as of late Monday, it had received 485 complaints of discolored water since Aug. 8. That six-day total compares with 200 complaints in a typical month. So far, the problem has mostly affected areas closer to WSSC’s primary filtration plant on the Potomac, in western Montgomery County. However, with each passing day, officials said, the water will reach areas farther away, such as northern Montgomery and into Prince George’s. The brown tinge comes from higher than usual levels of a natural mineral called manganese, which is also found in some food. It could leave behind rust-colored laundry but is fine to drink, officials said. KATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Charges dropped against D.C. marijuana activist On April 20, Capitol Police arrested eight protesters for handing out marijuana joints on land near the U.S. Capitol under local jurisdiction. Only two of those arrested were charged with a crime, and on Monday, the U.S. attorney’s office said it would drop charges against one of those protesters. Adam Eidinger, above, a marijuana activist in D.C., faced misdemeanor possession charges. But it was determined that he was carrying less than 2 ounces — the legal limit in D.C. — and the charges were dropped. (TWP)

GOP leaders condemn racism but not Trump
AFTER ‘THE MOOCH’
Hope Hicks gets broader role for now
POLITICS One after another, the nation’s most powerful Republicans responded to President Trump’s extraordinary remarks about white supremacists. Yet few mentioned the president. The Senate’s top Republican, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, condemned “hate and bigotry.” House Speaker Paul Ryan asserted: “White supremacy is repulsive.” Neither criticized the president’s insistence that there were “very fine people on both sides” of a violent weekend clash between white supremacists and counter-demonstrators. The nuanced statements reflect the party establishment’s delicate dance. Few top Republican officeholders defended the president in the midst of an escalating political crisis. Yet they are unwilling to declare allout war against Trump and risk alienating his loyalists. Trump’s overall approval rating may be dismal, but a small group of die-hard supporters is expected to play an outsized role in 2018 midterm elections, when the Republican control of Congress is at stake. Those supporters are praising the president’s response to the violence in Charlottesville, Va., which left one dead and many more wounded.
J. SCOTT APPLEWHITE (AP)
Top Republicans refuse to call out the president by name for his remarks
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell condemned “hate and bigotry.”
“You got racism in both factions, on both sides,” former New Hampshire GOP chair Jack Kimball said. “Trump has zero fault here. None.” Republican leaders also need the president to enact meaningful legislation on infrastructure, taxes and health care to prove to voters their party can govern. The delicate relationship helps explain Wednesday’s cautious comments from powerful Republicans like McConnell. “We all have a responsibility to stand against hate and violence, wherever it raises its evil head,” McConnell said in a statement, noting that white supremacists are planning a rally in his home
state of Kentucky. “Their messages of hate and bigotry are not welcome in Kentucky and should not be welcome anywhere in America,” he said. The political tap dance frustrated as least one member of Trump’s diversity council: Javier Palomarez, CEO of the U.S. Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. He challenged those who denounced racism in general terms without calling out the president by name. “That’s a sign of weakness, and I don’t think the American people and the Republican Party are going to forget,” said Palomarez, who noted he would remain on the diversity council “for now.”
Hope Hicks, President Trump’s trusted confidante and adviser, is taking on expanded communications responsibilities while the White House searches for a new communications director to replace Anthony Scaramucci, who was fired after just 10 days.

She started as Trump’s press secretary during the 2015 campaign and sits right outside the Oval Office. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump disbands major business advisory panels BUSINESS President Trump’s relationship with the American business community suffered a notable setback Wednesday as he was forced to shut down his major business-advisory councils. Trump announced on Twitter the disbanding of the two panels — the Strategy & Policy Forum and the Manufacturing Council — amid a growing number of resignations by chief executives furious over Trump’s remarks Tuesday, when he equated the actions of white supremacists and counter-protesters in the violence in Charlottesville, Va. But those business groups had already decided to dissolve on their own earlier Wednesday, a person familiar with the process said. JP Morgan Chase chief executive Jamie Dimon, a member of the Strategy & Policy Forum, told employees Wednesday that his group decided to disband following Trump’s comments. ”It is a leader’s role, in business or government, to bring people together, not tear them apart,” Dimon said. Earlier Wednesday, the chief executives of Campbell Soup and conglomerate 3M resigned from the manufacturing council. General Electric’s chairman, Jeff Immelt, who was also on the manufacturing advisory group, said that he had decided to resign after finding Trump’s comments on Tuesday “deeply troubling.” DAMIAN PALETTA AND JENA M C GREGOR (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Cord-cutter’s conundrum With an influx of new streaming services, ditching cable is getting more costly
Serbia offering a new homeland to ‘Little Picasso’
THINKSTOCK/ EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION
BUSINESS In the old days of video streaming — that is, not so long ago — consumers could cut the cable cord and subscribe to one or two services, enjoying a vast array of movies and television programming at a rate far less than the monster cable bill. It’s not so simple anymore. Disney, the juggernaut behind ESPN, Pixar, Marvel and the recent additions to the Star Wars franchise, shook the entertainment world last week with an announcement that it would remove many of its offerings from Netflix. The company said it would create a service — or multiple services — for its films and shows, and another for ESPN. As a result, a Netflix user who enjoyed access to Disney content — plus all of Netflix’s other content — on one site may have to turn to three or more sites to get it all. “It’s all in discussion,” said Disney chief executive Bob Iger. It is the most recent example of how the move toward streaming — though consumers have been demanding it for years — is proving to be a more fragmented experience than many have anticipated. Entertainment companies are now running services with increasingly narrow offerings, looking to hit consumers up for more subscription revenue wherever possible. “I worry that we’ll be going down yet another rabbit hole where exclusivity will take over and I’ll ultimately end up paying more for less,” said Brett Hatten, a father of two toddlers from Chicago who already pays for six streaming services. “I don’t want to end up in a place where
you have to subscribe to a bunch of different fiefdoms.” The shift is breaking down popular expectations in the entertainment world. For more than a half-century, for instance, viewers have expected to see shows on CBS broadcast free over the air on their TV. But this year, the network is launching highly anticipated shows such as the sequel to “The Good Wife” and a new “Star Trek” series only on its online service, marking yet another service people may need to subscribe to. CBS announced a separate sports streaming service last week. And the plethora of television options is changing consumer behaviors in other ways, leading many viewers to hopscotch between services, subscribing to HBO for a few months to watch “Game of Thrones,” then moving to Showtime to take in “The Affair,” before joining yet another service for an eight-episode binge. “I happily subscribe to Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime, which

all have a wide selection of shows and movies. But when I consider other streaming services, the costs add up,” said Diana Urban, a 30-year-old marketing manager and fiction author in Boston. She signs up for HBO Now during “Game of Thrones” season, when she also catches up on “Veep” and a few other shows. “Paying $15 a month indefinitely for only four shows isn’t worth it,” she said. Streaming services such as Netflix, Hulu and Amazon Prime — the latter of which offers a

video library, along with other features such as free two-day shipping — took off in part because they promised a convenient, cheaper alternative to cable. (Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos owns Express.) Big services such as Netflix provide subscribers content from many sources. But many others are now getting into the game. At least six networks have launched services, with subscription fees ranging from $6 to $15 per month. Many of those already offer their shows in some way through existing services. Now, consumers may find that shows and films they used to be able to access on broader services are pulled out for a separate service. The cost and mental effort of managing multiple services may be starting to prove nettlesome. “I just don’t want another subscription bill I have to pay,” said Erin Thompson, a mother of four from North Tonawanda, N.Y.

BELGRADE, SERBIA Serbia offered a 10-year-old migrant from Afghanistan, who has been nicknamed “Little Picasso” because of his talent for painting, and his family citizenship on Wednesday, after they spent eight months in a refugee camp while trying to reach Switzerland. Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic made the offer to Farhad Nouri — and included a job for the boy’s father — upon meeting the five-member family in his office. Farhad’s drawings and photographs were put on display last week in what was also a charity event to raise money for a Serbian boy recovering from brain tumor surgery. Farhad and his family left their home in Afghanistan two years ago. Upon their arrival in Serbia, the boy joined art classes organized by aid groups, and his talent soon turned him into a local celebrity. “I know for how long you have traveled and that you want to go to Switzerland,” Vucic said. “But if you decide to stay, we will give you the citizenship now.” The family is among some 5,000 migrants who have been stranded in Serbia after fleeing wars and poverty in their homelands. They have been unable to move on toward Western Europe, which has sought to curb the influx of migrants. It wasn’t immediately known if the family would accept the offer. (AP)

Feds demand data on D.C. protesters NATIONAL SECURITY A Los Angeles-based tech company is resisting a federal demand for more than 1.3 million IP addresses to identify visitors to a website set up to coordinate protests on Inauguration Day — a request whose breadth the company says violates the Constitution. “What we have is a sweeping request for every single file we have” in relation to disruptj20 .org, said Chris Ghazarian, general counsel for DreamHost, which hosts the site. “The search warrant is not only dealing with everything in relation to the website but also tons of data about people who visited it.” The request covers emails between the site’s organizers
and people interested in attending the protests, and any deleted messages and files, as well as subscriber information — such as names and addresses — and unpublished photos and blog posts stored in the site’s database, according to the warrant. A spokesman for the U.S. attorney’s office in D.C., which sought the warrant, declined to comment. In court documents, prosecutors argued that the request was constitutional. DreamHost made the request public Monday. In April, the federal government charged more than 200 people in connection with protests that injured six police officers and damaged store windows and at least one vehicle.

U.S. Coast Guard and military crews were searching the ocean off Hawaii for five crew members of an Army helicopter that went down during a training exercise, authorities said Wednesday. Officials at Wheeler Army Airfield near Honolulu lost communications around 10 p.m. Tuesday with the crew of a UH-60 Black Hawk, the Coast Guard said. Searchers spotted a helmet and part of a fuselage about 2 miles west of Kaena Point, Oahu. (AP)

THREE POINTERS
Ryan Zimmerman represented the tying run when he was tagged out at third in the eighth.
Loss caps trying stretch Nationals fall but finish homestand 6-3 despite continued injuries and nasty weather ANGELS 3, NATIONALS 2 As Ryan Zimmerman slid into third base in the eighth inning of Wednesday’s 3-2 loss to the Angels, there was no doubt about the call. He was out by at least a foot after trying to go from first to third on a ball that bounced away from Angels first baseman C.J. Cron and into the outfield. That meant the Nationals no longer had the tying run in scoring position, and a rally had disintegrated. But Zimmerman’s hustle explained a lot about what has kept the Nationals afloat through injury after injury. Even with the loss, Washington went 6-3 on one of the most trying homestands it’s faced this year. Max Scherzer wandered the
clubhouse Wednesday morning with a shirt that read “August is the Month of Hate.” That’s what he calls this time of the year, when everyone is sick of everyone, sick of the aches and pains and fatigue. August is hard, and it gets no easier when injuries and rain delays disrupt plans. This stretch was supposed to provide a break from the rigors of the road. Instead, it included three games in 29 hours and injuries to Bryce Harper and Brian Goodwin. Even so, the Nationals won six of nine. Had Zimmerman’s mad dash worked, they might have had seven. Washington starter Tanner Roark threw two bad pitches, one to Luis Valbuena in the fifth, then another to Kole Calhoun in
the sixth. Valbuena’s solo home run cut the Angels’ deficit to one, and Calhoun’s two-run blast gave them the lead. Otherwise, Roark pitched well, mixing in an effective change-up while scattering four hits over seven innings. Zimmerman helped the Nationals score first with a tworun home run to left-center, his 28th of the season. His career high is 33. Howie Kendrick’s two-homer night Tuesday helped the Nationals overcome the wasting of seven base runners in the first game against the Angels. But they couldn’t make up for leaving eight men on base Wednesday, when they also had yet another injury scare. Michael A. Taylor, who just
returned from the disabled list Sunday, fouled a ball off his face in the sixth. That was hours after the team activated Alejandro De Aza as the 13th outfielder they’ve used this year. But Taylor stayed in the game and made a diving catch on a line drive from Juan Graterol in the seventh that will rank among the best any Nats player will make this season. With a comfortable division lead, August is more the month of wait than hate for the Nationals. Though every day seems to bring a new injury with it, they remain optimistic. Wednesday’s loss provided nothing to disrupt that — and even a few flashes, courtesy of Taylor, of what this team has been missing.

dropped 7 percent after racially charged protests in 2015. Scandal and tragedy can leave lasting impacts on athletics programs, recruiting analysts said, and lead prospective student athletes to question whether an institution is really a good fit. Virginia head football coach Bronco Mendenhall said Tuesday he had begun contacting recruits, but that not one player or parent told him they were backing away from Virginia. “Most of them are realizing that this is happening predominantly from people coming into our city and leaving, and won’t necessarily be their neighbors and won’t necessarily be their fans,” Mendenhall said. Saturday’s “Unite the Right” rally was the second such meeting on Virginia’s campus since May, and leaders of white nationalist movements have vowed to return to Charlottesville for

COLLEGE FOOTBALL At the request of several players, members of the Virginia football team on Monday linked arms and posed for photos in front of The Rotunda, the building at the heart of campus designed by Thomas Jefferson, sending a message to the world. “Our school, our city, our home,” the team proclaimed in a now-viral tweet. “United forever.” Now Cavaliers coaches will try to convince recruits that Charlottesville is not a beacon of hate. Klansmen, neo-Nazis and white nationalists descended on the college town over the weekend to fight the removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee. The demonstration turned violent, then deadly. An avowed Nazi sympathizer drove a car at high speed into a group of counter-protesters, killing one woman and injuring 19 more, police said. Elected officials in Charlottesville have vowed that the domestic terrorist attack would not define their city. Now coaches at U-Va. will reach out to prospects with that same message, knowing that the horrible scenes of this past weekend will be used by their competitors to try to lure away players. Just ask the University of Missouri, where enrollment has

future gatherings. White nationalists have demonstrated in Boston and Seattle this week, and more events are planned around the country this weekend. “The coaches at U-Va. are going to have to be very proactive and very public, as they already have been, in fighting
back against any narratives that say U-Va. students aren’t safe,” said Brad Franklin, publisher of Virginia sports blog CavsCorner. “They’ll use game-day atmospheres and time spent one-onone in the football offices with coaches and players as a means to show that what happened this weekend wasn’t a ‘Charlottesville problem,’ but rather an issue that we as a nation face each and every day.” Senior linebacker Micah Kiser, an African-American and firstteam all-ACC selection from Baltimore, said he’s never experienced any kind of racism on campus or in Charlottesville. “I don’t think the actions and what happened here this weekend really represent our community,” he said. “It’s a safe place and it’s a great place to come play football and get an education.” JACOB BOGAGE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Report: Saints fire physicians after mistake New Orleans has fired team orthopedists Deryk Jones and Misty Suri after a leg injury to top cornerback Delvin Breaux was misdiagnosed, ESPN’s Mike Triplett reported Wednesday. According to Triplett’s source, Breaux’s injury was thought to be a bruise, but after his leg was slow to heal, it was discovered that he had a fractured fibula that will require surgery and cause him to miss up to six weeks. Triplett and NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported that Saints players haven’t been happy with their medical care for some time, and Triplett reported that coach Sean Payton, above, “was livid” over Breaux’s misdiagnosis. The New Orleans Advocate reported this week that the team was looking to trade Breaux over frustration with his nagging injuries. But the Saints “no longer appear as eager to trade or part ways with him” after learning of the misdiagnosis, Triplett reported. Suri also is listed as a team physician for the Pelicans in the NBA team’s most recent media guide. Jeff Duncan of The TimesPicayune reported the Pelicans have also been frustrated with their medical staff for years. Suri was regarded highly enough to be asked to work the 2016 Pro Bowl. In 2011, he and Jones performed surgery on Payton after the coach suffered leg injuries in a sideline collision during a game. MATT BONESTEEL

My D.C. dream day
Dana Tai Soon Burgess CHOREOGRAPHER
Though D.C.-based choreographer Dana Tai Soon Burgess, 49, isn’t dancing professionally anymore, his lifestyle is far from sedentary. On days he’s not choreographing new works with his eponymous company, he is usually accompanying them to performances at the National Portrait Gallery (where he’s the choreographer in residence) or traveling around the world as a cultural ambassador for the U.S. State Department. We caught up with Burgess and asked what he’d do if he had an entire day to play. When I have a day off, I like to walk from the Palisades, where I live, to Georgetown. There’s a trail that goes all the way there along the canal. I’m always amazed at the animals I’ll see — I’ve seen deer and a fox and all different kinds of birds. Then I’d go shopping in Georgetown. I like going to Zara, and there’s this great suit shop, Suit Supply, on M Street. I also love The Lantern used books — you can find the most amazing antique and rare books there. Georgetown has the best antiques. I really appreciate the aesthetics and the way things were made and designed in the past. I recently got this great Italian mirror at the Christ
Child Society’s Opportunity Shop. It’s gold and rococo and just completely over-the-top.
The restaurant I usually go to if I have time off for lunch is Al Dente. I like it because you can sit inside or outside. I really like the arugula salad and I also like the spaghetti with Bolognese sauce. I might keep walking and go all the way down to the Mall. I’ll go to the Lincoln Memorial right before sunset — I love how the marble itself changes colors depending on the light. When I people-watch, I look at people’s gait. It’s fascinating to see how some people move with speed and other people galumph along. Spatial patterns are interesting to me
too. It’s fascinating to see how groups of people move through space, especially in crowded places. Another great place to watch the sunset is Top of the Gate, the bar on top of the Watergate Hotel. You can sit outside and you have this incredible view. I’d have a little bite, like a spring roll, and drink a glass of wine. I just had the most wonderfully light white wine there — it was the Paul Blanck Pinot Gris France, perfect for the summer. My dream day would be doing this all with my husband, Jameson Freeman, too. Those are the best days, when we have time to spend together. (AS TOLD TO SADIE DINGFELDER)

New England clam chowder at Martin’s Tavern At least 82 years old
Here’s what’s brewing for DC Beer Week
Martin’s Tavern claims that in the 1950s, then-Sen. John F. Kennedy would frequently order a bowl of the clam chowder. This particular chowder’s history dates back to the 1930s, when the restaurant was founded. Today, the soup goes for $10.95; a menu from 1935 lists its price as just 20 cents. And if you want more JFK trivia, this Georgetown restaurant has got it. Two booths commemorate him: one where he supposedly proposed to Jackie and a one-sided table referred to as the “rumble seat” where he’d often sit.
For the ninth year in a row, DC Beer Week is celebrating the region’s beer scene — this time with eight days of events (Sunday through Aug. 27). Here are some highlights.

Walter’s Favorite sandwich at Old Ebbitt Grill Around 40 years old
The half-smoke ($5.95) has been the signature of this landmark spot since its opening in 1958. Back then, you had to visit the shop in person to get your paws on one, but today you can pick them up at Costco stores nearby or have a pack shipped frozen to you anywhere in the United States. Throughout the years, the half-beef, half-pork link covered in mustard, onion and chili has been the restaurant’s top seller.
Founded in 1856 by innkeeper William E. Ebbitt, this D.C. dining bastion has played host to presidents and tourists alike. Though the restaurant’s location has varied, one constant has remained since the 1970s: Walter’s Favorite sandwich ($13.29-$14.59), made with hot pastrami, Muenster cheese, Thousand Island dressing, coleslaw and pumpernickel. The sammie is a version of one served at another D.C. institution, Loeb’s NY Deli.

I want her to know that as a black gay woman, you’re not at a disadvantage. You have people and resources and women you can look up to.”
“One of the things that’s nice, as a visibly trans woman going out to bars most nights of the week, is that I know most of the people here in Richmond and I know that at any given open mic if there was an issue, there are people who would stand up for me, who would have my back. There are definitely venues that are like, ‘We are not going to book that,’ and I’ve experienced audiences where I can tell, as soon as I mention being trans, they sort of tense up. And that is one of the reasons I am big about doing DIY things. Because more established spaces are where I most frequently experience an audience that is uncomfortable with the fact that I exist. I want to make my own space where people don’t feel empowered to be assholes.”
“The great thing about comedy is that it does help people connect and say, ‘I identify with you on that. You’re a totally different person from me, but what you just described is something I relate to.’ We need to make a concerted effort to amplify that connection. There’s been quite a lot of discussion over the years about how we can get men to be more respectful to us, and how we can lift each other up. When women run into constant disrespect, it can make comedy seem like it’s not worth the trouble. Women running comedy shows is an up-and-coming thing. In general, I think that female comedians are more motivated. We want to get stuff done. We don’t want to stand behind a man. As a result, we’ll take more risks, and sometimes those risks pay off.”
“I would love to see more people that are underrepresented in comedy — more queer people, more women, more trans people. Any kind of creative collective is going to benefit from having an influx of different perspectives. There have definitely been times where I have had bookings rescinded in ways that seemed suspicious, but it’s hard for me to know why. They aren’t going to explain to you why they are being discriminatory: ‘Hey, it’s not ’cause you’re gay, it’s because you’re a woman.’ Stand-up comedy can be isolating. I think it can help if you build a community with the other performers, especially people that are like you so that they can validate your experience. I think it’s important to expose yourself to other viewpoints, but it’s also helpful to have a community to support you.”

‘Something in the Way She Moves’
James Taylor
“He’s the reason why I write music,” Puth says of the singer, adding that his own piano-playing style is modeled after Taylor’s guitar playing. “This is the song that my mom loves the most.”

‘As Long as You Love Me’
Backstreet Boys
Puth had just gotten off the phone with Swedish hit-maker Max Martin before this interview, so the boy band’s Martin-produced 1997 single was fresh on his mind. “It was my first introduction to proper pop music,” Puth says.

‘Violent Pornography’
System of a Down
Puth says this 2005 song was his “first time hearing such polished production but with heavy metal music. It reminds me of the beginning of high school. It’s incredible stuff to this day — it’s so well produced.”

Devotee Eric Schaeffer tackles ‘A Little Night Music’ for Signature
STAGE Very few people end up with their high school sweethearts. In a way, Eric Schaeffer did. “The first [Stephen] Sondheim musical I saw was ‘Sweeney Todd’ on Broadway, the Angela Lansbury one,” says Schaeffer artistic director and co-founder of Signature Theatre. “Our high school drama class went up and we watched the show and
I thought, ‘What was T H AT?’ I went to the record store and bought the album — which I Schaeffer still have — and I just sat for hours listening to it and I was just like, ‘Oh, my God, this is brilliant.’ And that literally got me hooked on what a genius he was.” You could say he’s still hooked. Schaeffer, 56, has directed 28 Sondheim shows at various theaters, including “Sweeney” four times. He memorably mounted

it for Signature in 1991 as the theater’s first-ever musical. “We did it in a space that had 80 seats,” Schaeffer says. “We had 16 in the orchestra, 18 in the cast and people were like, ‘How are they even going to do this? This is ridiculous. Who is this theater company?’ And then we did it and people were like, ‘They really know how to do it.’ ” Schaeffer and Signature have established a national reputation for excellence in Sondheim — one
Schaeffer hopes to continue with “A Little Night Music,” which began performances this week. Set in 1900 Sweden, it’s the story of a variety of people confronting a variety of sexual situations: There’s a married virgin, a sex-starved student and a lusty maid, for starters. And though Schaeffer is a Sondheim guy, this particular Sondheim, which premiered in 1973, is a first for him. He elected to take it on now after hearing Bobby Smith, who
plays central character Fredrik, sing the show’s “Now” in concert. “I immediately thought, ‘We need to do “A Little Night Music” with him,’ ” Schaeffer says. “That’s really the trigger that started it all.” Schaeffer also feels he’s better equipped to handle the show now than during Signature’s previous staging. “It’s [about] people in the wrong relationships,” he says. “I guess I’ve been in some wrong relationships in my life, and now I’m in the right one. There’s no doubt that I’m older, wiser and totally get what the show deals with on a level that 20 years ago I couldn’t.” Still, he tries to embody the spirit of Signature’s early days in his work. “It’s that carefree spirit of ‘let’s try it, let’s do it,’ ” he says. “It’s all about taking those risks, which I think not only excites me, but our audiences as well.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

‘Wet Hot American Summer’
Drafthouse Cinema, 20575 Easthampton Plaza, Ashburn, Va.; Fri., 7:20 p.m., $14.
USA FILMS
The Alamo Drafthouse knows how to throw a party, so celebrate the almost-end of summer with its “Wet Hot American Summer” shindig. For this screening of the insanely well-cast 2001 cult comedy (with Paul Rudd, Amy Poehler and Michael Ian Black) about a group of camp counselors, props like gum and flutes will be handed out, and there’s no way those will get annoying. At the bar, you can pick up a s’mores martini, and there’s no way those will go down so easy you’ll be hammered by the time the opening credits roll. Alamo
Paul Rudd and Elizabeth Banks are wet, hot and American in the 2001 cult-classic comedy “Wet Hot American Summer,” which screens at the Alamo Drafthouse on Friday.
‘Predator’
DC Black Film Festival
Former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger stars in “Predator,” the eternal story of soldiers who, while on a rescue mission, get killed one by one by a terrifying monster from outer space. It seems it’s a situation that wasn’t addressed in bootcamp, a lapse in judgment that we’re sure was immediately addressed and never resulted in any sequels like “Predator 2” or “Predators” or the upcoming “The Predator.” Anyway, see the sci-fi scarefest as it was meant to be seen: on the big screen, and late enough that getting home will be terrifying.
The DC Black Film Festival, celebrating emerging and established black filmmakers from around the country, arrives at the Miracle Theatre this weekend. In addition to panel discussions and workshops, the films are presented in three blocks with the following themes: “The Future,” “The Struggle & The Triumph” and, of particular interest to locals, “The District & The Law,” focusing on films about or filmmakers from D.C., followed by films about law enforcement and justice.
Angelika Film Center, 2911 District Ave., Fairfax; Fri. & Sat., 11:45 p.m., $8.

There are two things I tell everyone when they meet my dog, Trubble: No, I didn’t pick the name and I, too, am baffled by that spelling; and he probably can’t see you right now because he’s pretty old and blind. The geezer is still up for an adventure, though, preferably one where he can take frequent breaks to sit cute and wait for someone to pet him. Northern Virginia, it turns out, is full of people who will stop and greet any old Shih Tzu on the street like it’s a dinner-party guest — what better place for a date with a dog?
The Dairy Godmother
On a beautiful afternoon, I like to day-drink while Trubble prefers to survey and sniff patches of grass. Naturally, we headed to Barrel Oak Winery, about an hour outside of D.C., where dogs are allowed anywhere indoors and out on the massive grounds as long as they’re leashed. The best move is to grab a glass of wine and park at one of the picnic tables outside, where charmers like Trubble can sit back and await adoration from passing patrons. Keep in mind, Barrel Oak’s menu is limited to snacks and a pizza tent that attracts a long line, so bring a picnic lunch. Barrel Oak Winery, 3623 Grove Lane, Delaplane, Va.
By mid-afternoon, we agree that it’s snack time, me because it’s ice cream weather and Trubble because it’s a day that ends in “y.” We’re off to The Dairy Godmother in Alexandria, which has treats for both of us. Trubble waits outside (no dogs allowed!) while I fetch him

It must be time to drink again by now, so we hustle to make it to the dog-themed “Yappy Hour” at Jackson 20, a Southernleaning restaurant attached to The Alexandrian hotel. There’s a separate entrance to the back courtyard for canine patrons, but should your dog be as pocket-size as Trubble, staff will usher you as you carry it through the dining room under your arm like a watermelon. Once out back, you can enjoy a selection of beer, wine and mixed drinks for $3-$5, while those of Trubble’s ilk can enjoy a selection of treats that are given out for free — which is good because he has some excuse about forgetting his wallet again.

flattering. But if you’re going to bring your four-legged friend, Old Town Alexandria is the place to do it: King Street is lined with stores marked with “dog-friendly” stickers, and employees are liberal with treats and petting. Sensing that the wares at Current Boutique, Red Barn Mercantile and Bishop Boutique aren’t enticing Trubble, I lead us to The Dog Park, where the toys, clothes and snacks are more up his alley.

Barkley is a year-and-half-old sheepadoodle, a mix of Old English sheepdog and moyen poodle. On Barkley’s “gotcha day,” the breeder opened his trunk to reveal a litter of puppies.

Rider is a 7-year-old Brittany. His hobbies include running, hiking and barking furiously at any other dog who dares walk on his street, but sometimes it’s nice to step out and experience something new. Annapolis is already famous for its boating, seafood and midshipmen; I decided to hit the historic streets to see what it has to offer four-legged visitors.
40-minute tour of the Annapolis Harbor and the shores of the Naval Academy. Rider, who has never been on a boat before, reacts in the same way he does when he visits the vet: by attempting to fit his 54-pound frame onto my lap. He does enjoy how nearly every child on the boat neglects the taped lecture about rockfish, oysters and blue crabs in favor of petting him. Cruises on the Bay by Watermark, City Dock, cruises daily, various times, $6-$16.

Theodore Roosevelt Island
Our day begins with a trip to the Shaw Farmers Market (Sundays, 10 a.m.-2 p.m.) at the Old City Farm and Guild. It doesn’t have the variety of its Dupont Circle counterpart, but it does allow dogs. I inspect peaches with one hand while keeping a hold on Barkley with the other, making sure he doesn’t lunge at children or other dogs. After I’m done sorting through produce, we approach the tent occupied by Three Puppies Treats, an outfit from Falls Church that sells homemade dog biscuits and frozen treats. We buy a bag of mixed biscuits and a 3-ounce cup of the Yum Yum Peanut Butter flavor frozen treat, made with PB, nonfat plain yogurt, honey and water.

Alexandria has no shortage of places to sit outside and enjoy dinner with your dog, but the Lost Dog Cafe is relevant to both our interests: The restaurant’s owners have also opened the Lost Dog and Cat Rescue Foundation, which finds homes for strays.

Annapolis | Kristen Page-Kirby & Rider
I have long suspected that Barkley thinks he’s a goat, because he’s constantly chewing on grass and whatever bushes we encounter. To appease his fondness for flora, we leave the farmers market and enter the Old City Farm and Guild. The plants and supplies are a bargain when you consider all the free gardening advice. I ask a friendly staffer about the difference between chocolate mint and pineapple mint while Barkley sniffs around, adding more smells to his mental database. Barkley may never be that dog
hanging his head out of a moving car, but at least he doesn’t get sick in the back seat anymore. Our next stop requires a quick drive on the George Washington Memorial Parkway to park near Theodore Roosevelt Island on the Potomac. The swamp trail that borders the park is 1½ miles, and there’s plenty of shade, so Barkley doesn’t get overworked or overheated. If your dog is into birding, there are all kinds of wading birds, raptors and warblers about. I take a picture of Barkley with the 17-foot Teddy statue and post it to Instagram with a “Ruff Riders” caption. All this time outdoors has given me a thirst for beer. Another drive leads us to another quadrant of the city, and soon enough I’m leading Barkley into Bardo, a brewery with a huge fenced-in outdoor space for patrons in Southeast Washington between Nationals Park and the Anacostia River. Even with a smattering of beer drinkers sitting at makeshift picnic tables, the space feels kind of feral — all the tables seem to be made of misshapen scrap wood. But Barkley is happy to explore Bardo’s off-leash dog area. As I drain a refreshing Hank’s Summer Sour Mash and watch him run free, I think to myself that more dog parks should be attached to beer gardens. Bardo, 25 Potomac Ave. SE.

Watermark’s Cruises on the Bay
Rider and I exit the West Garrett Garage and take the 15-minute walk through the arts district to get downtown. There are shuttles from the area’s various parking lots and a Circulator, but dogs are not allowed on either. Fortunately, many shops along the way have bowls of water and treats outside their doors; I notice the latter as Rider hoovers up a dozen from the bowl outside Shades of the Bay.

In keeping with the day’s canine theme, we stop at Pip’s Dock Street Dogs, which offers up franks both plain and slathered. As a reward for not freaking (or peeing) on the boat, Rider selects a plain all-beef hot dog while I go for the “Almost Chicago” Dog, topped with mustard, relish, onions, a pickle and a tomato wedge. Dogs aren’t allowed indoors, but there are a few tables outside — plus, the location and the innate portability of hot dogs means it’s an easy walk across the street to bark at the ducks again. Pip’s Dock Street Dogs, 118 Dock St.
Having been to Quiet Waters Park many times before, Rider is deeply disappointed to find that the person monitoring the gate is not the woman who always gives him a treat. In addition to a dog park with separate areas for small and large dogs, Quiet Waters has trails, water views and Paddle or Pedal, where you can rent kayaks, canoes and stand-up paddleboards — for you and your pooch. Given Rider’s reluctance on the big boat, I pass, which leaves Rider more time for a long waterfront walk and getting petted by every single person there.

Ben Platt sets final date in ‘Dear Evan Hansen’ Ben Platt, who more than three years ago first took the stage in Broadway’s “Dear Evan Hansen” — and went on to win the Tony Award in June for best actor in a musical — will leave the celebrated show in the fall. His last performance at Broadway’s Music Box Theatre, where the show collected six Tonys, will be on Sunday, Nov. 19, Platt and the show’s producers announced Tuesday. (THE WASHINGTON POST) NETFLIX
STREAMING “The Defenders” is the type of superhero series that we’ve come to expect from Netflix’s liveaction Marvel productions. Well worth the wait, the new show, premiering Friday, is every bit the event that Marvel fans hoped it could be. The coming together of the streaming service’s four superhero shows — each with varying styles on how to be a hero — works in part because of how they focus on why such a gettogether shouldn’t work at all. But before Daredevil (Charlie Cox), Jessica Jones (Krysten Ritter), Luke Cage (Mike Colter) and Iron Fist (Finn Jones) team up to defend New York City, they’re divided into pairs. Matt Murdock is reeling from the pain of losing the woman he loved, Elektra (more on that later), and has left his Daredevil days behind to focus on being the best lawyer possible. And who should end up needing a good, affordable attorney? Jessica Jones. (Jones is on the bad side of Misty Knight, played by Simone Missick.) Murdock and Jones butt heads from the start as they realize they’re both investigating something that connects to an evil scheme too big for the both of them. That something is Sigourney Weaver’s Alexandra, who makes for a compelling villain with a mysterious past that
Jessica Jones, Iron Fist, Daredevil and Luke Cage might save New York City if they don’t pulverize each other first.
borders on the unbelievable. Also on Alexandra’s trail is Danny Rand, the Immortal Iron Fist, who realizes that she is connected to some of his father’s company’s previous shady financial dealings. Some of the grunt work of those deals is handled by young men in Harlem, which puts Luke Cage into the path of the Iron Fist. The Luke Cage/Iron Fist combo is where “The Defenders” gets a lot of its early magic. Although common knowledge to the hardcore comic book fan, but perhaps not the casual viewer, Cage and Rand are one of Marvel’s most classic, popular comic book duos. Their bromance starts off rocky, but they begin to let their guard
down, and become an on-screen duo fueled by geeky comic book chi. It’s a treat to watch. One might wonder how well Iron Fist fits in on this new show, because his namesake series was the first Marvel Entertainment product in some time to receive less-than-positive reviews from critics and fans. But this isn’t “Iron Fist.” When Rand is teamed up with Cage in “The Defenders,” the moments feel as cool as they were intended to be. (If the Netflix Iron Fist still just wasn’t your thing, you’ll at least enjoy Cage checking Rand on his privilege.) Elsewhere, Elektra (Elodie Yung) is back from the dead (yes, you’ll see how) and serves as the last line of defense between the
Defenders and Alexandra. The episodes hit a new pace when Daredevil and Elektra’s blind martial arts mentor Stick (Scott Glenn) arrives. Daredevil wants no part of Stick’s involvement, but Stick is multiple steps ahead of the team when it comes to understanding just what type of threat they’re facing. And so it seems Marvel’s connected Netflix universe is back on track with no apparent “Fist” hangover. The biggest question going into this street-level hero team-up was how four shows with such different vibes would come together as one. The best part of “The Defenders”? Watching how they make that happen. DAVID BETANCOURT (THE WASHINGTON POST)

trending “If God hand-crafted us in His own image why is there Tim Allen?” @TOMSCOCCA, making fun of Tim Allen after the actor asked Twitter a basic evolutionary biology question: “If we evolved from apes why are there still apes.” Allen got roasted as people couldn’t pass up the chance to crack a joke. “If ‘Last Man Standing’ was successful, then why was it cancelled?” @DylanDooley7 asked. Ricky Gervais was nice enough to help Allen out with his biology. “Not [evolved] ‘from,’ but ‘with.’ We shared a common ancestor. Like cousins share common grandparents,” he responded. @Sherlock_HoImie asked the basic question everyone was wondering: “Tim, why didn’t you just type this into Google?”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Those who are drawn into your orbit will provide you with much encouragement and moral support. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can appreciate much today that you overlooked even yesterday. Changes in attitude are a positive development. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may be feeling unusually spunky, and only you know the reason. This is something you should share with a special someone. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Despite an abundance of positive developments, you may be feeling guilty about something that was not entirely your fault. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A greeting you receive from an authority figure will have you wondering what might be next.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Errors you make will teach you much about what is possible, but you must work to undo what you’ve done as quickly as possible.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Whatever goes wrong can surely be fixed, but only if you don’t waste any time trying to point fingers.
TODAY: Clouds start to pile up in advance of a warm front to our south. Partly sunny skies may provide enough instability for a midday shower, with a better chance of scattered showers and storms late afternoon into the evening. With abundant moisture in place, we run the risk of heavy downpours.
ARIES (March 21-April 19) What is coming your way will surprise you on one hand and satisfy your expectations on the other. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You’re feeling the pressure of increased responsibilities, but you can surely get everything done in an efficient and timely manner.

He said the relationship became abusive after he lied about a past fling.

“The final advice I could give you would be know your worth, know your independence.”
The Kardashian-Jenners shared details about their reality show and personal lives in a new Hollywood Reporter cover story. Kim Kardashian, who reportedly chose a surrogate to carry her and Kanye West’s third child, said of the subject: “There have been a lot of things said and Kanye and I have not confirmed anything. We’re definitely trying.” Khloe Kardashian revealed she “never wanted to do” spinoff show “Khloe & Lamar” with ex-husband Lamar Odom. And Kris Jenner admitted to editing scenes if she doesn’t look good: “I’m too vain to leave really ugly, ugly angles in.” (EXPRESS)
