Six decades as D.C.’s mixing bowl THE DISTRICT Organizers gathered there to plan the March on Washington. Martin Luther King Jr. stopped by. Stokely Carmichael was a regular. Marion Barry and Jesse Jackson plotted their political campaigns in its backroom. And President Barack Obama enjoyed its specialty, the half-smoke. In six decades of slinging halfsmokes and burgers, Ben’s Chili Bowl has been a place to meet as often as it has been a place to eat. All the while, its legendary jukebox has blared soul and gogo music while customers groove in the aisles between tables. But Wednesday, on Ben’s Chili Bowl’s 60th anniversary, its patrons were dancing in the street, celebrating a restaurant that has endured even when so much around it has changed. The birthday block party shut down a stretch of U Street NW and drew a crowd of D.C.’s most prominent politicians and personalities. Jackson, Mayor Muriel Bowser and D.C. Council members all took turns paying

tribute to Virginia Ali and her late husband, Ben, the founders of the D.C. landmark. “They’ve been the linchpin, the anchor of this community,” said Tony Perkins, a longtime local newscaster. Bowser unveiled new signs dubbing the street in front of the restaurant Ben’s Chili Bowl Way, and Council Chairman Phil Mendelson and member Jack
Evans named the day for Ben’s. Ben Ali, who died in 2009, and his then-fiancee, Virginia, opened Ben’s Chili Bowl Aug. 22, 1958, and married a couple months later. Over the next half-century, they weathered some of the city’s most trying times from behind their restaurant’s counter. As U Street burned in the 1968 riots that followed King’s assassination, Ben’s Chili Bowl stood
unharmed. Carmichael, leader of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee, asked the restaurant to stay open during the riots and past curfew. The restaurant served food to black activists, firefighters and police officers trying to calm the city. Today, Ben’s Chili Bowl is one of just a few places in Shaw where people from all walks of life come together, said Derek Hyra, a professor at American University and author of a 2017 book about gentrification in that neighborhood. “Ben’s Chili Bowl symbolizes the best of mixed-race, mixedincome D.C.,” Hyra writes in “Race, Class and Politics in the Cappuccino City.” This is the way it has always been, said Kamal Ali, who, with his brother Nizam, now run the restaurant their parents created. At the block party, Kamal Ali read a note a longtime customer sent him that morning. “You not only fed us but you brought us together as a community to show that no matter who you are or where you came from, we could all sit at the same table and treat each other respectfully,” the note read. “This says it best,” Ali said.

In Va., a campaign all alone
77%
Republican Thomas Oh, above, has distanced himself from Senate candidate Corey Stewart, below, as he fights to unseat an incumbent Democrat in Va.
THE WASHINGTON POST
VIRGINIA Thomas Oh knew he faced an uphill battle in his bid this November to unseat incumbent Rep. Don Beyer, D, in a Northern Virginia district that hasn’t sent a Republican to Congress in 28 years. But being called a Nazi hasn’t helped. Last week, Oh publicly distanced himself from Corey Stewart, the U.S. Senate candidate at the top of the GOP ticket who has associated with white supremacists, after several voters voiced disgust because Oh’s campaign signs were near Stewart’s signs at public events. “We were at a farmers market in the McLean area and a woman did not let her kids take candy from our stand, saying: ‘Don’t take candy from a Nazi,’ and I was like: What the heck?” said Oh, a son of Korean immigrants. Oh, 26, who disagrees with Stewart’s hard line on immigration and his desire to preserve Confederate monuments, has asked volunteers to keep his campaign materials at a distance from Stewart’s signs and palm cards, a fact first reported by the Richmond Times-Dispatch. Most of the 10 other Republicans running for Congress in Virginia have also tried to distance themselves from Stewart, who models himself after President Trump in a state where

“If they want to call me names, or if they want to slap me around, I don’t care.” COREY STEWART, the GOP candidate for U.S. Senate in Virginia, saying he understands if some in the party need to distance themselves from him
campaigning with Stewart, telling the Post that they prefer to “run our own campaign.” Searching for an analogy to describe the effect that Stewart
has had on his race, Oh turned to the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks. “It’s like when people say all Muslims are terrorists — which we know is not true — because Osama Bin Laden was a terrorist,” he said. “I’m not going against Corey by any means at all. I’m just saying our campaigns are different.” Rep. Robert Wittman, whose district includes portions of Prince William and Faquier counties, recently told conservative radio host John Fredericks that his schedule is too full to include any joint appearances with Stewart while he works to fend off Democrat Vangie Williams. Rep. Scott Taylor, who is facing a serious challenge from Democrat Elaine Luria in his purple Virginia Beach-area district, bristled at the suggestion that Stewart would hurt his campaign, telling the Virginian-Pilot “I don’t give a s--t about Corey Stewart.” Quentin Kidd, director of Christopher Newport University’s Wason Center for Public Policy, said it’s smart for other Republican candidates to steer clear of Stewart, particularly in close contests where they have to appeal to moderates in order to win. In those situations, where voters might be inclined to split their vote between incumbent Sen. Tim Kaine, D, and the local Republican, “any congressional candidate who is going to embrace Corey Stewart is essentially telling those voters to stay away,” Kidd said.

Floreen needed valid signatures from 1 percent of registered voters — 7,243 — to land a spot on the ballot, according to the letter. She will face Democrat Marc Elrich, a 12-year county council member, and Republican Robin Ficker, a former state delegate. While Floreen’s entry into the race to succeed Isiah Leggett can be challenged in court within 10 days, for now the verification means an upending of political traditions in Montgomery County, where the Democratic primary election has often determined the outcome in November.

Texas refineries want barriers for protection from climate change
Remains show unprecedented interbreeding DAVID J. PHILLIP (AP)
PORT ARTHUR, TEXAS As the nation plans new defenses against the more powerful storms and higher tides expected from climate change, one project stands out: an ambitious proposal to build a nearly 60-mile “spine” of concrete seawalls, earthen barriers, floating gates and steel levees on the Texas Gulf Coast. Like other oceanfront projects, this one would protect homes, delicate ecosystems and vital infrastructure, but it also has another priority — to shield some of the crown jewels of the petroleum industry, which is blamed for contributing to global warming and now wants the federal government to build safeguards against the consequences of it. The plan is focused on a stretch of coastline that runs from the Louisiana border to industrial enclaves south of Houston that are home to one of the world’s largest

concentrations of petrochemical facilities, including most of Texas’ 30 refineries. Texas is seeking at least $12 billion for the full coastal spine, with nearly all of it coming from public funds. Normally outspoken critics of federal spending, Texas Sens. John Cornyn and Ted Cruz both backed using taxpayer funds to fortify the oil facilities’ protections. But the idea of taxpayers paying to protect refineries in a state where top politicians still
dispute climate change’s validity doesn’t sit well with some. “The oil and gas industry is getting a free ride,” said Brandt Mannchen, a member of the Sierra Club’s executive committee in Houston. “You don’t hear the industry making a peep about paying for any of this, and why should they? There’s all this push, like, ‘Please, Senator Cornyn, please, Senator Cruz, we need money for this and that.’ ” WILL WEISSERT (AP)

Prosecutors say that in an attempt to justify spending more than $14,000 in campaign funds on a family trip to Italy, Duncan asked a naval base there for a tour. When officials said they would not be able to do it at that time, he said, “Tell the Navy to go f--- themselves.”

nationwide collective of prisoners leading the strike, said it is in response to a riot this year at the Lee Correctional Institution in South Carolina, where seven inmates died and many others were injured.

Ann Jacobs, director of the Prisoner Reentry Institute at the John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, said the strike may be problematic because prisons rely on prisoners for labor — to cook and serve meals, wash laundry and maintain grounds. “All of that could be affected and the prisons would have a very real kind of crisis in terms of how they operate,” she said.

A new Pew Research Center study suggests that the smartphone habits of parents are of concern to their teen children. Take the dinner table, the cliched scene where parents try to have a conversation with their cellphone-focused teen. Seventy-two percent of parents said they feel their teens are often or sometimes distracted by their phones while trying to have a conversation. But when Pew asked teens the same question about their parents, 51 percent of them said they believe their parents are often or sometimes distracted by their phones during in-person conversations. In some cases, teens might be a little bit better at managing their own distraction than their parents are. Fifteen percent of parents told Pew that they are often distracted at work because of their phones. Just 8 percent of teens said the same about themselves at school. Other results also show some of the generational gaps you’d expect to see comparing these two groups’ attitudes toward their phone usage — although the gaps aren’t quite as big as you might expect. For instance, 54 percent of teens asked by Pew believe they spend too much time on their phones. Thirty-six percent of parents feel the same about themselves. ABBY OHLHEISER

Saudis seek death for female activist Woman is among six arrested for protesting against discrimination
SAUDI ARABIA Prosecutors in Saudi Arabia are seeking the death penalty for five activists, according to Saudi activists and Human Rights Watch. Among those being targeted is Israa al-Ghomgham, who Saudi groups say would be the first female human rights activist to be put to death in the kingdom if the execution proceeds. “Any execution is appalling, but seeking the death penalty for activists like Israa al-Ghomgham, who are not even accused of violent behavior, is monstrous,” said Sarah Leah Whitson, Middle East director at Human Rights Watch. T h e o r g a n i z a t i o n s ay s Ghomgham is among five activists for whom Saudi Arabia’s public prosecution office is seeking the death penalty. They are being tried in the country’s terrorism tribunal for what their supporters say was peaceful activism. The European Saudi Organization for Human Rights said the Saudi prosecution was seeking Ghomgham’ beheading.

Facebook bans accounts linked to Iran, Russia TECHNOLOGY Facebook has identified and banned hundreds of accounts, groups and pages engaged in misleading political behavior, a far larger discovery than a “sophisticated” effort it reported three weeks ago with great fanfare. The social network said Tuesday evening that it had removed 652 pages, groups and accounts linked to Russia and, unexpectedly, Iran, for “coordinated inauthentic behavior” that included the sharing of political material. Facebook has significantly stepped up policing of its platform since last year, when it acknowledged that Russian agents successfully ran political influence operations on its platform that were aimed at swaying the 2016 presidential election. Other social media networks have done likewise. Facebook’s action in late July against 32 accounts possibly linked to Russia generally involved U.S. political activity ahead of the midterm elections in November. By contrast, the latest group of apparently fake accounts appeared more intent on influencing U.S. foreign policy and regional politics in the Middle East. Shortly after Facebook’s announcement, Twitter revealed that it had also suspended 284 accounts for “coordinated manipulation,” many of them apparently originating from Iran. RYAN NAKASHIMA (AP)

GOP faces a loyalty test Republicans, and some Democrats, reject calls for impeaching Trump following Cohen’s plea
DNC: Hackers tried to target voter database
GETTY IMAGEES
POLITICS Michael Cohen’s guilty plea implicating President Trump in a crime reverberated across the political landscape Wednesday, with Republicans rejecting talk of impeachment without evidence of Russian collusion. Democrats steered clear of the word, too, and zeroed in instead on what they called a “cesspool” of corruption engulfing the White House. The one-two punch ahead of the midterm elections — the plea from former Trump lawyer Cohen and the fraud conviction of onetime campaign chairman Paul Manafort — is presenting the biggest loyalty test yet for Republicans who have been reluctant to criticize the president. Trump’s strongest supporters are taking the view that, absent evidence of collusion with Russia to influence the 2016 election, there is no case for impeachment. “Anything short of the campaign actually conspiring with Russia to try to impact the election … will just be background noise,” said Jerry Falwell Jr., the president of Liberty University and a Trump confidant. Cohen on Tuesday said Trump directed a hush money scheme before the 2016 election to buy the silence of porn star Stormy Daniels and Playboy model Karen McDougal, both of whom said they had sexual relationships with Trump. Trump has accused Cohen of making up “stories in order to get a ‘deal’ ” from federal prosecutors. The president defended the hush money payments Wednesday, saying, incorrectly, that the effort outlined in Cohen’s guilty plea wasn’t “even a campaign

violation.” Trump told Fox News in an interview set to air today that the payments “didn’t come out of the campaign, and that’s big.” The accusation from Cohen has inflamed public debate about impeachment. Democratic leaders have sought to downplay the possibility of impeachment ahead of the midterm elections, fearing overreach that could cause Republicans to rally around Trump. Ben Wikler, Washington director for the liberal advocacy group MoveOn, said he wants Democrats in Congress to join organizations like his that have been demanding impeachment for several weeks. “Now that Trump’s personal lawyer has implicated him in a crime, not supporting impeachment feels like a dodge,” Wikler said. “Impeachment doesn’t have to be the core of your message to the electorate, but it’s not something you can bury your head in the sand and ignore.”
GOP leaders stay quiet Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell brushed past reporters Wednesday without answering questions about Michael Cohen or the possibility that the lawyer’s accusations about an illegal campaign cover-up are grounds for impeachment proceedings against President Trump. GOP House Speaker Paul Ryan, who is away from Washington, had no direct response either. (AP)
But Democratic leader Rep. Nancy Pelosi said that unless other information emerges, impeaching Trump is “not a priority” for Democrats if they regain control of the House this fall. Pelosi said she prefers to see Democrats work to ensure special counsel Robert Mueller can finish his investigation. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer used the developments

to press the Democrats’ case against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, saying Republicans should hit pause on their push toward confirmation. He expressed concern about Kavanaugh’s unwillingness to indict a sitting president, as is Justice Department policy, or to subpoena a president to testify. Kavanaugh’s confirmation hearing is set for Sept. 4. Some Republican strategists are privately worried about the party’s prospects in November because of the scandals. Democrats see a similar opening in what Schumer has called “a cesspool around this president.” “I think we’re beyond the tip of the iceberg,” said Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn. “We’re in the middle of the iceberg right now, given how many people so close to the president are on their way to jail. … My hope is that Republicans don’t retreat into a corner.” LISA MASCARO AND STEVE PEOPLES (AP)
NATIONAL SECURITY The Democratic National Committee said Wednesday that it has thwarted a hacking attempt on its database holding information on tens of millions of voters across the country. A party official said DNC contractors notified the party Tuesday of an apparent hacking attempt. The committee notified federal law enforcement. The official said no information was compromised and added that it’s unclear which third party attempted the hack. Bob Lord, the DNC’s chief security officer, briefed the leaders of state parties on the attempt at a party gathering Wednesday morning in Chicago. The DNC distributes the voter file to state parties for Democratic candidates to use the information to target voters during campaigns. “This attempt is further proof that there are constant threats as we head into midterm elections and we must remain vigilant in order to prevent future attacks,” Lord said, adding that President Trump isn’t doing enough to protect American democracy. The Democrats’ cybersecurity has been an issue since the 2016 election, when hackers identified as Russian by U.S. intelligence agencies compromised DNC servers and publicly revealed internal communications. Trump has mocked the DNC’s cybersecurity and cast doubt on intelligence findings that Russia was involved. BILL BARROW (AP)

FANTASY FOOTBALL PREVIEW
Don’t sleep on these options Fantasy football drafts are usually predictable in the early rounds, so finding value later in the draft could make or break your
season. Here’s a look at three potential breakout players ranked outside the top 10 at each position, according to ESPN’s non-PPR (points per reception) cheat sheet. There’s the sleeper stud (a potential top-five player), the system sleeper (a key player in a friendly offensive scheme) and the deep sleeper (a long shot worth late-round consideration). JEFFREY TOMIK (EXPRESS)
Quarterback
Running back
Wide receiver
THE SLEEPER STUD Matt Ryan, Falcons
THE SLEEPER STUD Royce Freeman, Broncos
THE SLEEPER STUD Jarvis Landry, Browns
Tight end
He’s coming off a down year, but he was the second-best fantasy QB in 2016 and hasn’t missed a game since 2009. Four of ESPN’s top seven QBs missed significant time last year.
Could he be this year’s third-round gem like Kareem Hunt and Alvin Kamara were last year? The rookie out of Oregon is seventh all-time in FBS career rushing yards (5,621).
The Browns made last year’s leader in receptions one of the highestpaid wideouts in the NFL, so it’s a safe bet he’ll be a focal point on their revamped offense.
THE SLEEPER STUD
Hayden Hurst, Ravens The lone tight end drafted in the first round this year had a TD in his first preseason game and could prove to be a favorite red-zone target for Joe Flacco.
THE SYSTEM SLEEPER

Philip Rivers, Chargers He was second in passing yards last season. Over the past five seasons, he has topped 4,200 yards each year and averaged almost 31 TDs.
Jerick McKinnon, 49ers For the first time, he has the chance to be a true lead back. Despite having just one start last season, he racked up 51 catches. He could thrive in Kyle Shanahan’s offense.
Marvin Jones Jr., Lions Matthew Stafford was third in the NFL last year in passing and his deep target was Jones, who averaged a league-best 18 yards per catch and was ninth in receiving yards (1,101).
Jack Doyle, Colts He could be the biggest beneficiary of the return of Andrew Luck. Even without the Pro Bowl QB last year, Doyle had more catches (80) than Rob Gronkowski and Zach Ertz.
THE DEEP SLEEPER Tyrod Taylor, Browns
THE DEEP SLEEPER

THE DEEP SLEEPER
With No. 1 pick Baker Mayfield as the backup, there’s obvious risk in taking Taylor. But he’s been a decent fantasy QB because of his rushing ability (14 TDs in the last three years).
Rashaad Penny, Seahawks Seattle’s first-round pick won’t sit behind Chris Carson for long. Penny is getting over a finger injury but is expected be ready for Week 1.
Marquise Goodwin, 49ers He had three games with at least 99 yards during the 49ers’ seasonending, five-game win streak with Jimmy Garoppolo under center.
Ricky Seals-Jones, Cardinals As a rookie last year, he had a threegame stretch in which he averaged 56.6 yards and a TD. He should see more targets in his second season.

Nats’ needs for 2019 The Nationals’ trades Tuesday put the club’s focus squarely on the 2019 season. Here are three areas with big questions even if free agent outfielder Bryce Harper re-signs. (THE WASHINGTON POST)
3 Second base The trade of Daniel Murphy, who was to become a free agent, means the Nats will shop for a replacement or give good glove Wilmer Difo a chance to show he can hit.
2 Catcher Matt Wieters, a free agentto-be, has been an offensive liability during his two seasons here. Harper’s status could affect how much the Nats invest in a new backstop.
1 Pitching Impending free agent Gio Gonzalez (7-10, 4.51) won’t be back, but Joe Ross (elbow) should be. Erick Fedde will get a look. Nats have a team option on Sean Doolittle.

Trustees weigh future of Meyer Ohio St. leaders discuss how coach handled scandal involving aide COLUMBUS, OHIO Ohio State trustees huddled privately Wednesday to determine the future of coach Urban Meyer, crafting a judgment of his handling of domestic violence allegations against an assistant coach in the latest abuse scandal in college football. Meyer and his wife Shelley waited out the decisions at Longaberger Alumni House, where university leaders were pitching Ohio State President Michael Drake on whether to fire, suspend or otherwise punish their national title-winning coach less than two weeks before the season opener. While the 20 trustees were getting their say, it is up to Drake to
decide whether Meyer responded properly to accusations from Courtney Smith, who alleged that her husband Zach Smith shoved her against a wall and put his hands around her neck in 2015, one of several domestic incidents involving the couple. Zach Smith hasn’t been charged with abuse, but a judge granted his ex-wife a protective order that prompted his firing in July. Fact finders briefed the board Monday. The trustees hired an outside law firm for $500,000 to do the investigation, which took two weeks. An Ohio State spokesman said there was no guarantee a resolution would be announced right after the meeting, even as the saga overshadowed the team’s preparation for its season Sept. 1 versus Oregon State.

RIP, RPI: NCAA to adopt new evaluation system The NCAA said Wednesday it is replacing the Rating Percentage Index as its main tool for evaluating teams for the NCAA tournaments. A new system, the NCAA Evaluation Tool, is expected to provide a better gauge than RPI, which had been used since the early 1980s. NET relies in part on game results, strength of schedule, game location and net offensive and defensive efficiency. (TWP) 1930-2018
Ex-Senators pitcher dies; he had a unique win in ‘54 Former Washington Senators pitcher Dean Stone, who got the win in the 1954 All-Star Game despite not retiring a batter, died Tuesday in Illinois at 87. He relieved with two outs in the eighth and Duke Snider at bat. Red Schoendienst, on third base, tried to steal home, but Yogi Berra tagged him out. Stone, whose career record was 29-39, got the win when the AL took the lead in the bottom of the inning. (TWP)

Forget trivia — this is the mindless bar game Washingtonians need
BARS The problem with Type A Washingtonians isn’t just that they can’t relax. Far too frequently, they won’t let anyone else relax, either. Everything becomes a competition and a chance to show off — even pastimes that are supposed to be fun, like bar trivia. But there’s an alternative to that: bingo, especially as played at Kingfisher, a basement bar near Logan Circle, on Monday
nights. Everyone who walks through the door gets a large stack of tear-off bingo cards and a marker-sized ink dauber. Old films play silently on TVs. Bartenders hand out free baskets of fresh popcorn. On a recent visit, almost every seat was full. Pulling the balls and reading the numbers is Julia Crantz, who has been hosting games organized by the social sports group DC Fray for almost a year. “It’s supposed to be fun and feel like home,” she says. Her banter between balls is peppered with corny jokes (“The next number isn’t after, it’s B-4!”)

and risque puns. Some squares result in free shots for players. There’s something relaxing and almost soothing about playing bingo: You’re chatting with friends. You hear a number. You quickly look down at your card to see if you’ve got it. You stamp over the number. You go back to talking. Repeat. You don’t have to think. Your odds of winning are determined by dumb luck. As the evening progresses through six games, Crantz switches the format to make things interesting: Instead of the usual five-in-a-row bingo, winners have to make a design

Maggie O’Neill ARTIST
Maggie O’Neill spends half her day designing the look and feel of restaurants and bars in D.C. The other half she spends dripping paint onto wedding dresses, pouring glitter on bingo cards and folding paper into intricate flowers. “I just wish there were more hours in the day,” says O’Neill, 40. Swatchroom, the studio she co-founded in Shaw, is behind the stylish interiors of Morris American Bar, Sakerum, Provision No. 14 and other D.C. spots. On her own, she’s responsible for colorful modern pieces at her pop-up, Color, in Dupont Circle, including canvases and high heels splashed with bright paint. On her dream day, the D.C. native is off to see some art instead of making it, for once. Fingers crossed she gets some inspiration for her next big, colorful project. I’m a coffee lunatic. I would go over to Compass Coffee and grab their mint cold brew that I’m obsessed with; then I would have a Smoked and Stacked breakfast sandwich. If I could eat breakfast and brunch all day, I would. I would probably then head to the National Portrait Gallery. The light in the atrium in the
morning is like silly beautiful. Forget about the fact that there’s all the artwork there too. If I could take my runny egg sandwich and my mint cold brew and I could go sit there and enjoy it, I would do that. I would do some brainstorming there, maybe, but that sounds so Gwyneth PaltrowGoop aspirational. I don’t know if that’s really my life.
I think it’s cocktail hour. One of my all-time favorite cocktails is the Mayahuel at Espita. It’s basically a margarita with mezcal, but it’s not a margarita. I don’t know how to explain it, but it’s decadent — I think about it all the time. Right now, Poca Madre is my dinner of choice. There’s a mole dish, they have this “not guacamole,” everything’s good. They have a risotto that’s amazing. There’s an amazing dessert — I don’t typically remember a dessert to the extent that I can’t stop thinking about it. It’s called a suspiro; it’s a twist on a Peruvian dessert. It’s like somebody took cereal — I’m butchering this and they’d probably be very upset by this — and put it in a bowl with the most delicious ice cream. I could just have that for dinner. Eighteenth Street Lounge would be a good time. Live music or any ability to just go shake it somewhere would be great.
I would then go stay at some delicious, glorious hotel — something ridiculous. (AS TOLD TO LORI McCUE/FOR EXPRESS)

Kidz Bop was founded on the notion that there is money to be made in having adorable, enthusiastic children sing soundalike versions of current pop hits. And that notion was right — the brand is now on album No. 38, and an accompanying live tour featuring the Kidz Bop Kids comes to Wolf Trap on Saturday. Most pop songs’ lyrics aren’t appropriate for the kiddie set, so Kidz Bop alters certain words, sometimes hilariously (Macklemore’s “Thrift Shop” went from “Now walk into the club, like, ‘What up, I got a big c---!’ ” to “Now walk into the club like, ‘What up?

What goes around keeps going around The Washington area is home to several carefully restored, century-old carousels that have brought joy to generations of children and kids at heart. Recent years have seen the openings of new carousels to delight even more riders. Whether you prefer a fancifully painted wooden horse from the golden age of carousels, a cuddly panda or a gleaming dragon, one of these is waiting for you to climb aboard. FRITZ HAHN (THE WASHINGTON POST)
7300 MacArthur Blvd., Glen Echo, Md.; open daily through August, weekends through September, $1.25 per ride.
The history: The best-known and most beautiful carousel in the region has been at Glen Echo Park since 1921, where it sits under a 12-sided pavilion. Hand-carved by the renowned Dentzel Carousel Company of Philadelphia, the carousel was meticulously restored between 1983 and 2003, as was its rare 1926 Wurltizer Band Organ that still plays songs from paper rolls. What you’ll ride: Like most carousels in the region, Glen Echo is a “menagerie” carousel: Horses predominate among the 52 seating options, but don’t overlook the galloping ostriches and leaping hares. “Little boys like the lion and the tiger,” says longtime carousel operator Bert Kenyon. “Little girls like the giraffe and the deer.” And once people find an animal they love, they tend to stick with it. “One friend of mine — she’s around 30 — she has a favorite horse, and will always ride that same special horse,” Kenyon says. Interesting fact: It’s not unusual to see three generations of the same family riding the carousel together, but the record probably belongs to “a young lady celebrating her 105th birthday here,” Kenyon says. “There were at least five generations of that family on that carousel.”
Speedwell Foundation Conservation Carousel at the National Zoo 3001 Connecticut Ave. NW; open daily, except for Christmas Day, $3.50 per ride.
The history: The zoo’s Speedwell Foundation Conservation Carousel, which opened in 2012, is populated with endangered species, many of which have lived at the zoo or the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute in Front Royal, Va. A conservation-themed carousel isn’t a novel idea — zoos from Los Angeles to Toronto have similar attractions — but the facts shared about different animals on carousel columns are a fun way to educate visitors and raise awareness. What you’ll ride: The 58 handcarved wooden animals run the gamut from cuddly to just plain weird. The flamingo, lion and tiger are the most popular, zoo officials say, and children run to the panda. But there’s also the squat armadillo, exotic Komodo dragon and slightly menacing-looking blue crab. Make sure to look around: The carousel is divided into different “habitats,” such as savanna or forest, and the panels overhead show birds that migrate to or from those areas. Interesting fact: The carousel is solar-powered, thanks to 162 panels donated by Pepco. If the carousel receives more solar power than it expends, the extra energy is used by the zoo’s general electrical grid.

The Chesapeake Carousel
Chessie’s Carousel at Lee District Park 6601 Telegraph Road, Franconia, Va.; open daily through Sept. 3, weekends through October. $2 per ride on weekdays, $3 on weekends and holidays.
The history: The newest addition to the regional carousel scene is also the only one with a local focus. Chessie’s Carousel, which opened last summer, goes beyond horses with animals found in the Chesapeake Bay watershed, including the whooping crane and sea turtle. The carousel, like Lee District Park’s playground and sprayground, is fully accessible to children with mobility issues. What you’ll ride: The carousel is small, with only 20 seats, but the fiberglass animals include some not regularly seen on other carousels,
The Chesapeake Carousel
such as a hummingbird, a screaming bald eagle, a friendly-looking frog and a sparkling sea turtle. It’s not as large as some other carousels, making it friendlier for young and potentially apprehensive riders. Interesting fact: Modeled after the accessible carousel at Clemyjontri Park in McLean, Va., Chessie’s Carousel sits at ground level, allowing wheelchairs to roll directly on. There are two ADA seating
options: a swan-shaped chariot with a bench, and a bench that stretches between two white horses. Unlike most bench seating on carousels, which stay in place, this one goes up and down, giving children the feeling of riding a traditional carousel horse.
The Chesapeake Carousel at Watkins Regional Park 301 Watkins Park Drive, Upper Marlboro, Md.; open daily through
Sept. 3, weekends through September, $2.50 per ride ($2 for Prince George’s County residents).
The history: From 1929 until 1972, this gorgeous and slightly mysterious carousel was a fixture at the Chesapeake Beach Amusement Park in Charles County. What’s so mysterious about it? The animals appear to be from different sources: Some are attributed to the Dentzel Carousel Company, circa 1905, while others appear to have been carved in the late 19th century and added piecemeal by the amusement park’s operators. Since 1977, it’s been at Watkins Regional Park, one of the flagships of the Prince George’s County park system. What you’ll ride: Of the 44 animals on the carousel, about two-thirds
are painted horses, split between jumping and standing. The rest is a diverse selection of species, including galloping bison (a father and son side by side), a leaping rabbit and a brightly restored hippocampus — the carousel name for a horse/seahorse hybrid. The real star, though, is what the National Carousel Association calls “a rare articulated kangaroo.” Its jointed legs provide a sense that it’s bounding alongside the carousel. “The kangaroo is the most popular and unique,” says Christy Irving, who oversees the carousel. Interesting fact: One of the original lions was removed from the outer ring of animals to make the carousel wheelchair-accessible; it is now on display in the carousel’s pavilion.

Carousel on the Mall
Carousel on the Mall Across from the Smithsonian Arts and Industries Building at 900 Jefferson St. SW; open daily, except for Christmas Day, $3.50 per ride.
The history: There has been a carousel on the Mall since 1967, when Smithsonian secretary S. Dillon Ripley decided that the institution needed to be more welcoming to families. The current carousel, which is independently operated but overseen by the Smithsonian, was made in 1947 by the Allan Herschell Company, and operated at the Gwynn Oak Amusement Park in Baltimore until 1973. It moved to the Mall in 1981; the previous carousel was relocated to Wheaton Regional Park. What you’ll ride: While most classic carousels have only three rows of animals next to each other,
this has four rows. All of the 57 horses are “jumpers,” meaning they go up and down. Some of the horses have a D.C. theme — note the ones painted with cherry blossoms or wearing a saddle blanket covered with presidential signatures. Interesting fact: This carousel played a role in the civil rights movement. The segregated Gwynn Oak park was the subject of organized protests, beginning in 1955. After repeated demonstrations in July 1963 led to hundreds of arrests, the owners finally relented: On Aug. 28, 1963, an 11-month-old girl named Sharon Langley became the first AfricanAmerican child to ride the Gwynn Oak carousel. That day, on the Mall, Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his “I Have a Dream” speech. The horse Langley rode is still on the carousel: It’s marked “Freedom Riders.”

The flight stuff: In a space museum far, far away … I wonder how many of the 7 million people who visit the National Air and Space Museum on the Mall each year know that there’s another, arguably better and definitely bigger Air and Space Museum just 26 miles away. The Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center isn’t exactly a secret — it draws around 1.6 million visitors a year — but it could definitely handle more people. On a recent weekday, the center’s massive exhibit hall was only
speckled with tourists, but they made up for their numbers with outsize enthusiasm. “This airplane goes 2,000 miles per hour WITHOUT EVEN TRYING,” I overheard one preteen boy say to his family while standing next to the museum’s Lockheed SR-71 Blackbird. “It could go faster than any missile!” On the other side of the plane, one of the museum’s volunteer tour guides was giving the grown-up version of the same talk. “This puppy flew from L.A. to D.C. in 64 minutes,” he said.
NEAR ANNAPOLIS, IN CROWNSVILLE, MD
“How many of you made it from downtown to here in 64 minutes?” No one raised their hand, and this is probably a clue as to why Udvar-Hazy is relatively under-visited. It took me two hours to get to the Chantilly, Va., museum on public transportation, and it would have taken more than an hour by car. (One smart tourist I chatted with said he made Udvar-Hazy his first stop after arriving at Dulles airport.) The guide continued dazzling us with details about the Blackbird. When flying upward of Mach 3, the airplane’s titanium surface heated up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit, he said. In fact, some Blackbird pilots actually warmed up their lunches — tubes of food that they squirted through ports in their flight suits — by pressing them against the airplane’s quartz windows. As that group continued on to the space section of the museum, I tagged along with another tour group that was approaching the museum’s most famous artifact, the Enola Gay. “Does everyone here know who Enola Gay is?” the guide said. I was baffled. Of course, I know what Enola Gay is — it’s the airplane that dropped the atomic bomb that, on Aug. 6, 1945, instantly flattened 6 square miles of Hiroshima

and ultimately killed around 135,000 people, mostly civilians. But I had no idea who Enola Gay was. “It was the pilot’s mother,” the guide said. I had a lot of questions. What was the pilot’s relationship
with his mother like? What did she think about having her name forever linked with a deadly atomic bomb? And what kind of name is Enola, anyway? I didn’t get a chance to ask before the guide buried us in
an avalanche of mundane facts — how many similar planes were built, and where, and by what companies. He never once mentioned the death toll at Hiroshima, or the argument for the bomb’s use — namely, that it brought a swift end to a

had killed a hundred people or a thousand. The tour group moved on to a corner of the museum where a dozen or so German World War II aircraft are parked. The sight of that sea of swastikas painted on airplane tails turned my blood to ice. (I’m Jewish, and my great-grandfather emigrated from Germany just before the war — though you don’t exactly need a personal connection to have a major emotional response to
the Holocaust.) “The captured German stuff is really something else,” our guide said. He pointed out one technological marvel — the first jet bomber, an Arado Ar 234 B-2 Blitz. Then he moved his laser pointer to another, the Dornier Do 335 A-0 Pfeil, one of the fastest propeller-driven aircraft ever built. “With aircraft like this, why didn’t Germany win the air war?” our guide asked. “The answer is, they came along too late. They were running out of pilots. They were running out of fuel, and they had ‘quality control’ issues,” he said, making air quotes. The Nazis used slave labor to build the airplanes, and some concentration camp prisoners intentionally sabotaged the parts, our guide explained. Looking around the hangar, it suddenly dawned on me that most of these marvelous machines were built for killing or spying. In search of something

more uplifting, I made my way to the spaceflight hangar, where I found my first tour group standing beside the space shuttle Discovery. “Discovery went 39 times into space and back,” the guide said, adding that, in its astonishing 30-year career, the shuttle made major contributions to science — for instance, putting the Hubble telescope into orbit in 1990, and delivering parts, crew members and scientific equipment to the International Space Station on several occasions. As I made the lengthy trip home from the museum, my mind buzzed with questions — about U.S. history, about the role of war in advancing technology, and about how ambitious scientific endeavors can be a rallying point for international cooperation. I guess that’s the hazard of visiting an incredible museum like Udvar-Hazy; it stays with you long after you’ve gone home.

weekendpass Holly Frey and Tracy V. Wilson do a lot of cramming for history. The co-hosts of the popular podcast “Stuff You Missed in History Class” spend 16 to 30 hours prepping for each of their two weekly episodes. They zero in on topics they think are fascinating yet haven’t gotten enough attention, like Victorian “orchidelirium” or the first successful Jewish American writers. “History is not dusty old books, although it can include those,” the Atlanta-based Frey says. “History is happening around us all the time — we are part of it. Learning about what’s come before can help you appreciate your place in the history that’s happening right now.” On Thursday, Frey and Wilson will stop at The Miracle Theatre for the final live recording of their East Coast tour. We asked Frey to school us on five historical tidbits about D.C. we might have missed.

The skinny-dipping president and the tenacious reporter You know our sixth president, John Quincy Adams? He liked to skinny-dip in the Potomac. And if we’re to believe the apocryphal story, journalist Anne Royall, frustrated that she couldn’t get an interview with Adams, showed up at the river and sat on his clothes until he granted her one. “Now, most historical research indicates this never happened,” Frey says. “But what’s really interesting is that because Royall was a very feisty, forward woman, she was cast in a negative light, and these stories about her basically stalking a president and taking his clothes to get what she wanted started to develop.” The part about Adams bathing in the Nation’s River, though? “For sure, he did indeed like to skinny-dip in the Potomac,” Frey affirms.

The controversial 1960s play that opened at Arena Stage In 1967, “The Great White Hope” — loosely based on the life of African-American boxer Jack Johnson — debuted at Arena Stage. In Howard Sackler’s play, set in the early 1900s, boxer Jack Jefferson (played by James Earl Jones) is married to a white woman named Eleanor (Jane Alexander). “Because of that biracial relationship, the play got a lot of flak, and people were very concerned about what was being shown onstage,” Frey says. “It was very controversial, but it’s really cool that it debuted in D.C. because it then moved on to Broadway.” “The Great White Hope” went on to win the 1969 Tony Award for best play and the 1969 Pulitzer Prize for drama, and was later adapted into a film co-starring Jones and Alexander.

A “whip-smart satire of fear and loathing” (New York Times) from a MacArthur “Genius” Grant-winner
The National Gallery of Art’s megahit exhibit In the 1960s, the National Gallery of Art was a bit … well, we won’t say stodgy. Conservative will suffice. Then J. Carter Brown was named director, and in 1976 he opened the “Treasures of Tutankhamun” exhibit, featuring 55 objects from the tomb of the guy we know as King Tut. The exhibit attracted more than 800,000 people, and “it really kind of changed the way the gallery was functioning,” Frey says. “[Brown] did a lot more progressive things and took an approach to more modern art — he wanted to explore different avenues and bring things to the gallery that hadn’t been there before. And the show, it was almost like the opening of a film.” Indeed, some museum visitors lined up outside for eight hours, generating an excitement in ancient history and art that had been lacking.
The nation’s oldest fish market It’s hard to find better oysters and crabs than those at the Municipal Fish Market. It’s even more challenging to find seafood steeped in a richer tradition. The landmark in Southwest, which opened in 1805, is the oldest continuously operating, open-air fish market in the nation. Now it’s a key component of the busy, revitalized Wharf neighborhood, a favorite among loyal customers who came to the area for decades before it became trendy. “When you go there to have a meal or buy seafood, you’re adding to this two-century tradition of seafood in the D.C. area,” Frey says. “It’s a really cool piece of history that anyone can go and be a part of.”

In 1910, on baseball’s opening day, President William Taft took himself out to the ball game to watch the Washington Senators play the Philadelphia Athletics. “He was getting really tired of sitting, because sometimes those games go on for a long time,” Frey says. “According to legend, he stood up to stretch his legs, but everyone wanted to be respectful of the president, so everyone else stood up, as well.” And that’s how D.C. came to claim that it’s the birthplace of the seventh-inning stretch. Still, Fry notes the story is apocryphal; other cities contend they’re the birthplace, and we might never know which city truly is.

Q&A | KYLE KINANE
Kyle Kinane knows he doesn’t have all the answers. In fact, he doesn’t really have any of them. If he did, he wouldn’t be in stand-up comedy. “I don’t like listening to comedians tell me how the world works,” Kinane says. “If you knew how the world works, you’d be a stockbroker, or you’d be a banker or a CEO. Comedians are comedians because they’re not good at other things.” That’s why the gruff-voiced comic’s sets are anchored by anecdotes about the mundane that play as delightfully absurd. When Kinane did tackle politically relevant material in his set for the Netflix series “The Standups” earlier this year, it came in a farcical bit about how Ku Klux Klan members surely partake in cuisine from the cultures they oppress. “There’s no way that KKK members are only eating Eastern Europeanbased foods,” he jokes. On Thursday, the 41-year-old comedian and voice-over artist brings his act to D.C. THOMAS FLOYD (EXPRESS) You voice a drug-sniffing — and drug-addicted — police dog on the new Netflix animated series “Paradise PD,” out Aug. 31. How would you describe the show? For an era where people just want to be outraged, here’s some comedy to be outraged at. There are real horrors in the world, but if you want to be upset by jokes, here you go. It’s crass and crude and offensive and I had some huge belly laughs just recording the parts, and some of those laughs came at knowing what people will think of it. That excites me.
What’s your take on the scrutiny comedians face for objectionable humor? It’s such a tightrope. A lot of comedians do have an impact on the way people think. People look at them as some sort of barometer of society or having some sort of philosophical insight. But you know why comedians get to be philosophical? Because they don’t do s--- all day. There’s no wisdom — it’s just free time. So, I don’t know. The whole world is just puddles of hot water waiting for somebody to step in.
It makes sense, then, that so much of your humor is just poking fun at yourself. I’m going to be self-deprecating because the only thing I’m an expert on in this world is myself, and even then not all the way. Nobody knows the depth of their own psyche. Your stand-up is anchored by lengthy stories that branch off in unexpected directions. What appeals to you about that kind of bit? That’s just because I’m not good at this. I can’t write a lot of jokes, but I can take one joke

and stretch it out to where it’s pretty insufferable. That’s just a gimmick to fill time. Boom, all of sudden it’s, “Hey, all right, I did an hour. Cool. People laughed at the three jokes that I told.” You’ve released four albums, with your most recent coming in 2016. How has your approach to stand-up changed over the years? You piss and moan about your life and how crummy it is, and people relate to it, but then they relate to it enough that you get to be kind of successful at comedy and then it’s disingenuous to be like, “Man, my job sucks and I’m broke.” Some comedians are trying to hang on. I don’t know if they’re truly miserable people or they feel that they can’t change their character, but I’m not going to let my stage character take my well-being hostage, if that makes sense. Yeah, I’m not turning out as much material anymore. It’s because I’m happy. 9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW; Thu., 7 p.m., $25.

Marking the MAGNOLIA PICTURES
The manager of a breast-forward restaurant (Regina Hall) has a long day in “Support the Girls.”
‘Support the Girls’
In the comedy “Support the Girls,” Regina Hall (“Girls Trip”) plays the manager of Double Whammies, which she insists is a “mainstream restaurant” like Chili’s, which it is — if all of the servers at Chili’s wore midriffbearing outfits and push-up bras. She cares for the waitresses who work for her, which she shows both by giving life advice and tossing out anyone who gets a little handsy with them. The film tracks her through one workday and, if nothing else, is a reminder that being a restaurant manager is kind of sucky.

‘Crime + Punishment’
Winner of the U.S. Documentary Special Jury Award for Social Impact Filmmaking at this year’s Sundance Film Festival, “Crime + Punishment” is about 12 black and Latino NYPD officers who in 2015 filed a class-action lawsuit alleging that the department had quotas requiring officers to arrest a certain number of people; those arrested were overwhelmingly minorities. While the film will be available on Hulu starting Friday, you can see it on the big screen, thanks to a theatrical release that puts it in consideration for the Academy Awards. The Avalon Theatre, 5612 Connecticut Ave. NW, opens Fri., $9.25-$12.50.
‘Clue’
Before we had movies based on Disney rides, we had movies based on board games. Well, at least ONE movie. Madeline “Flames on the Side of My Face” Kahn is the most excellent part of this most excellent ’80s comedy, being screened as part of a free outdoor film series in downtown Silver Spring, but Tim Curry and Christopher Lloyd are pretty good, too. Director Jonathan Lynn filmed multiple endings to the murder mystery, so even if you’ve seen “Clue” before, you might still be surprised when you find out whodunit. The Blairs Shopping Center, 1330 East-West Highway, Silver Spring; Fri., 8 p.m., free. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

17th Street Festival While the 9-year-old 17th Street Festival is more low-key than other D.C. neighborhood fests, it’s still a solid block party. The heart of the strip is closed to make room for vendors, food stands, community groups, mariachi and dixieland bands, drag performers and Chinese lion dancers, while a kids zone offers games and a moon bounce. 17th Street between

DJ Dredd’s MJ + Prince Dance Party DJ Dredd’s Prince dance parties are like musical battle royals that feature His Royal Badness’ biggest hits and coolest remixes spun back to back against another artist’s catalog. The most memorable of the D.C. DJ fixture’s sets have featured Prince and King of Pop Michael Jackson, with every song eliciting shouts of delight and pulling even more people onto the dance floor. This round of the legendary party features projected visuals by artist Robin Bell. 9:30 Club, 815 V St. NW; Sat., 8 p.m., $15. ETC …

MUSIC
The Theater at MGM National Harbor, 101 MGM National Ave., Oxon Hill, Md.; Wed. & Aug. 30, 8 p.m., $185-$275.
Beach House Baltimore’s Beach House released “7” earlier this year, the duo’s seventh studio album. For this one, Victoria Legrand and Alex Scally split with longtime producer Chris Coady, replacing him with MGMT collaborator Sonic Boom. As a result, “7” has a bigger, heavier and denser sound, readily apparent on album opener “Dark Spring,” which builds to a noisy crescendo. But this is still dreamy, poppy indie rock that’s perfect for getting lost in. The Anthem, 901 Wharf St. SW; Sat., 8 p.m., $38-$55.
As if hearing “Superstition” and “Isn’t She Lovely” sung live by Stevie Wonder isn’t enough, the musician’s intimate and brief “The Stevie Wonder Song Party: A Celebration of Life, Love & Music” tour promises to be “immersive” and “participatory” as well. Wonder has asked attendees to bring along the old records and family photos that remind them of the weddings, graduations, children born and loves sparked by his music.

‘Fun House’ Late Night If you stopped by the interactive “Fun House” exhibit on a weekend afternoon this summer, it was probably crowded, especially with kids (which makes sense, as it’s basically an artsy ball pit).

National Building Museum, 401 F St. NW; Wed., 6-9 p.m., $25.

Taking up arms for the resistance
‘Vox’ exploits the feminist dystopia genre
FILM Loan Tran is reclaiming her true identity and her narrative. With a personal essay in The New York Times, her break from silence is an act of resistance against toxic fans who see nothing beyond the stories they want to hear and think nothing of the very real experiences of the storytellers. Known as Kelly Marie Tran in Hollywood, she was chased off social media after a relentless bullying campaign against her over her role as Rose Tico, the first major part for a woman of color in a “Star Wars” film. “The Last Jedi” divided its fan base, which is par for the course for anything “Star Wars.” But some online commenters’ complaints about the film and her character led them to attack her personally. In sharp contrast to Tran’s earnest Instagram posts basking in the joy of being a “Star Wars” hero, a barrage of racist and abusive comments criticized her looks and her ethnicity. “Their words reinforced a narrative I had heard my whole life: that I was ‘other,’ that I didn’t belong, that I wasn’t good
enough, simply because I wasn’t like them,” Tran wrote. “And that feeling, I realize now, was, and is, shame, a shame for the things that made me different, a shame for the culture from which I came from. And to me, the most disappointing thing was that I felt it at all.” She then talks about how her parents felt it necessary to adopt Western names, Tony and Kay, “a literal erasure of culture that still has me aching to the core.” Tran and her family are just a few of many Asian-Americans who change their names to ease their passage through an American life. Chloe Bennet of “Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” defended her decision to change her last name from her Chinese one because “Hollywood is racist and wouldn’t cast me with a last name that made them uncomfortable.” Tran writes about her ambition to “live in a world where children of color don’t spend their entire adolescence wishing to be white.” She declares that her real name is Loan, and that she’s “just getting started.” It’s important to note that other than accepting a leading role in a

“Their words reinforced a narrative I had heard my whole life: that I was ‘other.’ ” KELLY MARIE TRAN, writing in The New York Times about the harassment she has faced online
“Star Wars” film (and who would pass on that?), Tran was pushed into a situation that was not of her making or choosing. It’s not unlike the circumstance of her
existence. Asian. Woman. San Diego-born American. Daughter of Vietnamese refugees. None of these facets that shape her life were her decision, yet she faced judgment and shouldered unrealistic or unwarranted expectations on her identity. With Tuesday’s act of defiance in breaking silence and declaring her real name, she has decided to own and shape the narrative about her. Rose Tico returns in “Star Wars: Episode IX” on Dec. 20, 2019. You can already hear the cheers when she returns to the big screen. But with her essay, the next episode of the Loan Tran story has already begun. GENE PARK (THE WASHINGTON POST)

CBS puts its cash cow out to pasture
“The Big Bang Theory” will end after the popular sitcom’s upcoming 12th season, CBS announced Wednesday. “We, along with the cast, writers and crew, are extremely appreciative of the show’s success and aim to deliver a final season, and series finale, that will bring ‘The Big Bang Theory’ to an epic creative close,” CBS, Warner Bros. Television and Chuck Lorre Productions said in a statement. Season 12 premieres Sept. 24. (EXPRESS) Nicki Minaj cancels North American tour with Future
Idris Elba says he won’t be next James Bond
BOOK REVIEW President Trump may be a disaster for women’s rights, but he’s made feminist dystopias great again. Lately, every hot novel feels like “The Handmaid’s Tale.” But when does a publishing trend give voice to our anxieties, and when does it merely exploit those anxieties? That’s the uncomfortable question raised by Christina Dalcher’s “Vox,” the latest novel to give us an inflated misogynist nightmare. Dalcher’s story melds one of Western culture’s oldest prejudices with the future’s slickest technology: In the U.S. she imagines, every woman can say only 100 words a day. Trump is never named in these pages, but the allusion is clear, as “Vox” opens during the administration of a totalitarian leader elected after America’s first black president. As Dalcher, above, lays out the mechanics of the word-counter that every woman must wear on her wrist, “Vox” is grimly fascinating. Unfortunately, the novel’s most interesting ideas are quickly muzzled. Almost as soon as “Vox” pivots from exposition to action, it loses its edge, shifting from a sharp work of feminist speculative fiction to a frothy thriller. Burdened by this breathless acceleration, few of the story’s complex themes survive. Just when “Vox” needs to sink in and give a fuller sense of its political and social world, the story grows sketchy — even silly. RON CHARLES (TWP)

“I feel like the smartest news outlets assigned their most athletic reporters to the Manafort verdict today.”
“If Beto O’Rourke wins his Senate race in Texas, he’s gonna be President by 2021.” @MIKEL_JOLLETT, tweeting about the Texas Democrat’s response to a constituent who asked if he found NFL players protesting during the national anthem to be disrespectful. O’Rourke said, in part, “I can think of nothing more American than to peacefully stand up, or take a knee, for your rights.” O’Rourke faces Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in November’s midterms.
@AMANDA_CLINTON, reacting to photos of the stampede of
journalists bursting out of an Alexandria courthouse Tuesday. The reporters were on standby for the trial of former Trump campaign chairman Paul Manafort. After the jury said it had found Manafort guilty on eight counts, TV footage showed journalists sprinting from the building to deliver the news.
“How did it take ‘Hard Knocks’ three episodes to show us the national treasure that is Offensive Line Coach Bob Wylie?”
“The paps yelled at Nyle to turn to the left like he was gonna say ‘Oh to the left? Sure thing’ and strike a dramatic pose.”
@TYLERVESELY, discussing the Cleveland Browns coach’s screen time on the HBO show, which follows one football team each year. Wylie has become a fan favorite after saying U.S. soldiers won two world wars without stretching, which he called “overrated.”
@SLM_SHADY812, tweeting about a video from Monday’s MTV Video Music Awards that shows photographers yelling at model Nyle DiMarco to get his attention, even though DiMarco is deaf. DiMarco reposted the video himself and didn’t take offense at the slip.

TODAY: Expect a delightful day as high pressure builds in with cooler and even drier air. Skies are mostly sunny as highs reach only the low 80s, with low humidity and a refreshing breeze. It will feel more like late September than August tonight with mostly clear skies, relatively low humidity and lows in the upper 50s or low 60s.

Hilary Swank married boyfriend Philip Schneider this past weekend in Carmel, Calif. The actress and social venture entrepreneur tied the knot in an outdoor ceremony surrounded by redwoods, with “Law & Order: SVU” star Mariska Hargitay serving as the maid of honor. The meal featured spinach and kale salads, salmon, roasted beef tenderloin, and a gluten-free and vegan chocolate cake. “It was timeless,” Swank told Vogue. “I was overwhelmed with such gratitude and thanks to be marrying the man of my dreams and to see all the people we love together in the middle of such a profound setting.” The couple had been dating since 2016.

Azealia Banks posted a potentially damaging text conversation with Elon Musk’s girlfriend, Grimes, to her Instagram Story on Tuesday. In the thread, Grimes claims she got Musk to start smoking weed, prompting him to round up Tesla’s stock value from $419 to $420 “for a laugh.” Grimes says the joke then led to an SEC probe for potential fraud.
