Flight turns into a D.C. airport shuttle TRANSPORTATION Getting from Dulles International to Reagan National Airport can be a pain — as many harried travelers in the D.C. region know. There is no Metro station at Dulles yet, so the journey to National requires a shuttle bus on top of a transfer. And don’t even get us started on trying to make the drive on Interstate 66.

Yes, congestion is bad. But as some travelers learned Monday, a direct flight can be just as hectic.

A Southwest Airlines flight bound for National from Dallas Love Field was diverted to Dulles on Monday night because of the heavy rains that pummeled the Washington region.

According to passenger Pam Krieger, who lives in Alexandria but was visiting family in Dallas, the plane took off from Love Field shortly after 2 p.m. Monday and was scheduled to land at National about 6 p.m. Toward the

end of the trip, storms forced the crew to begin circling over West Virginia.

Short on fuel, the plane was diverted to Dulles, where it landed about 7 p.m. At that point, Krieger said, passengers were told to stay on board. Some protested. The flight crew relented and allowed those with carry-on bags to disembark. About half the passengers got off.

Krieger, who had checked her two bags, was not among them, leaving her “no choice but to sit

on the plane.” Passengers were incredulous: Why couldn’t they just get off at Dulles and figure out the rest from there?

Krieger said a flight attendant told her and others aboard that the plane’s final leg would be from National to Milwaukee, so the plane needed to complete its trip.

At Dulles, passengers still on the plane awaited a new crew, which arrived about an hour and a half after the initial landing. After some delays on the tarmac because of “congestion” at National, the plane took off at 9:01 p.m., according to the flighttracking site FlightAware.

When all was said and done, some passengers who arrived at Dulles about 7 p.m. disembarked around 9:30 p.m. at National — 23 miles away. The flight took about 22 minutes, according to FlightAware. For now, at least, it is the fastest way between the two airports.

Southwest said it provided $100 flight vouchers to all passengers who were aboard — including those who got off at Dulles.

‘Unsettling’ killing in NW THE DISTRICT A woman jogging in the Logan Circle neighborhood in Northwest D.C. was fatally stabbed Tuesday evening in what police said was probably a random attack.

Wendy K. Martinez, 35, was attacked just before 8 p.m. in the 1400 block of 11th Street near O Street NW, police said. She staggered into a nearby takeout restaurant, where patrons tried in vain to save her life.

D.C. Police Chief Peter Newsham said that, at this point in the investigation, police think the assailant was a stranger to Martinez. He said it did not appear to be a robbery attempt.

“It is more likely a random act than anything else but we’re going to look at all possibilities,” Newsham said.

“It’s horrible to see something like this happen in the city,” the chief added.

At a news conference Wednesday, he called the attack “one of those unsettling incidents that sometimes happens in large cities.”

Newsham said Martinez, who lived in the area of the attack, was an avid runner known to run for miles in the city. He said the area where the incident took place is a “very safe neighborhood.”

After she was stabbed, Martinez made her way into a Chinese and American restaurant and

Jogger fatally stabbed in what police say was likely a random attack

District police say Wendy K. Martinez, 35, was stabbed Tuesday night in an apparently random attack near this carry-out restaurant in Northwest.

“It’s just scary because women aren’t safe … I don’t think there is a safe route for women.”

JESSICA DILLMAN, an avid runner in D.C., saying that it scares her that a route she thought was safe is now the site of a homicide

collapsed. The people who were waiting in line tried to help her, Newsham said, including a nurse who was nearby.

“They did the best they could, but she passed,” he said.

Newsham said that there are

many video surveillance feeds from businesses and homes in the area and detectives were combMartinez ing through them.

The chief said there were reports Tuesday night that there was more than one suspect involved, but police eventually determined there was a single attacker. He said the confusion may have been the result of people running in fear from the scene.

Newsham said the suspect is described as a black man wearing a mustard-colored shirt that went to his thigh area, along with dark-colored sweatpants that were slightly rolled up. The man

wore white socks, according to Newsham. He fled south on 11th Street NW. Police said a knife was recovered at the scene.

Martinez graduated from Georgetown University with a master of arts in Latin American studies in 2012, according to a university spokesman.

Her death comes as the Washington region has experienced more than 190 homicides this year, according to tracking done

by The Washington Post. Of those, more than 100 have been in the District, mainly in Southeast and Northeast Washington.

The area around Logan Circle has a relatively low crime rate, with few violent crimes. Most of the incidents in the area involve vehicle break-ins.

Mark Glaze, 47, who lives across the street from the restaurant, has lived in the area since 2011 and said he has “never seen anything like this.”

He got home Tuesday night after the stabbing and said he saw evidence markers and dried blood outside the restaurant. He said he’ll try not to let the stabbing affect him too much.

“I don’t see any advantage to walking around terrified,” he said.

On its Twitter account, FiscalNote — a D.C.-based management and technology company where Martinez was chief of staff — wrote that it was “shocked and deeply saddened to learn that [Martinez] was killed last night.” MICHAEL BRICE-SADDLER AND DANA HEDGPETH (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Lawsuit: UMBC, police covered up sex assaults A class-action lawsuit says prosecutors and detectives worked to cover up sexual assault complaints at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County.

Two former students say they reported rapes to the university and county police, which failed to act and intimidated the plaintiffs.

According to the lawsuit filed Sept. 10, authorities coded sexual assault reports to deflate crime statistics and destroyed rape kits early, among other actions that led to the underreporting of assaults.

A Maryland man and two partners lured investors by trading on the consumer debt crisis to build a fortune for themselves, buying Rolls-Royces, Lamborghinis, mansions and a share in a Gulfstream jet, according to indictments unsealed this week in federal court in Baltimore.

U.S. Attorney Robert K. Hur said the trio attracted investors with “an elaborate web of lies, duping them into paying millions” and then diverting the money to fund their lavish lifestyles.

nation+world Projected jump to 45% for cell users is increase from just 3.7% last year TECHNOLOGY Nearly half of all cellphone calls next year will come from scammers, according to First Orion, a company that provides phone carriers and their customers caller ID and call blocking technology.

The Arkansas-based firm projects an explosion of incoming spam calls, marking a leap from 3.7 percent of total calls in

2017 to more than 29 percent this year, to a projected 45 percent by early 2019.

“Year after year, the scam-call epidemic bombards consumers at record-breaking levels, surpassing the previous year, and scammers increasingly invade our privacy at new extremes,” Charles Morgan, the chief executive and head data scientist of First Orion, said in a blog post.

The barrage of fraudulent calls has taken a more dire turn in recent months as scammers have targeted immigrant communities with urgent calls claiming

Across several U.S. metropolitan areas with large Chinese populations, scam callers have posed as representatives of the Chinese embassy while trying to trick Chinese immigrants and students into revealing their credit card numbers. Other prominent spam calls involve fraudsters pretending to be a representative from a bank, a debt collector or cable company.

The Internal Revenue Service also has warned taxpayers about phone scams. Callers use telephone numbers that mimic

actual IRS assistance centers, claim to be IRS employees and use fake names and phony badge numbers. Scammers may also take advantage of the devastation caused by Hurricane Florence, the IRS warned, by posing as a charitable organization.

Scammers also trick people into answering their calls with a scheme known as neighborhood spoofing, in which they manipulate caller ID information so that their actual phone number is masked. Instead, the calls appear to have been placed locally.

President Trump visits workers and storm victims in New Bern, N.C.

they don’t know when evacuees will be able to return home, and it may be next week before conditions improve substantially, since the Cape Fear River isn’t expected to crest at the city until Monday or Tuesday.

Nearly 3 feet of rain fell in

places, and dozens of cities had more than 10 inches of rain.

Roads remained dangerous, and some were still being closed as swollen rivers emptied toward the ocean.

At least 37 people have died in the three states, including two

women who were being taken to a mental health facility when the van they were riding in was engulfed by floodwaters from the Little Pee Dee River in South Carolina, authorities said.

Authorities don’t believe the women were in restraints like those sometimes used on psychiatric patients. The two deputies in the van were placed on leave pending an investigation.

It wasn’t clear why the women were being moved in the aftermath of a killer hurricane. Justin Bamberg, a lawyer who has represented the families of several people injured or killed by law officers, said he was perplexed by the decision.

“If that road is in an area where it is a flood risk, and waters were rising, why were they driving on that road a ny way? ” B a mberg s a id .

WILMINGTON, N.C. Exhaustion and frustration are building in the Carolinas as thousands of people wait to go home days after Hurricane Florence unleashed epic floods blamed for more than three dozen deaths, including those of two women who drowned when a sheriff’s van taking them to a mental health facility was swept off the road.

With the remnants of Florence finally out to sea and skies bright over rivers still swelling with muddy water, President Trump visited the disaster zone Wednesday, riding through soggy neighborhoods and helping pass out warm meals at a church in the hard-hit coastal town of New Bern, N.C. “How’s the house?” Trump asked one person. “You take care of yourself.”

There wasn’t any presidential fanfare 120 miles away in Fayetteville, N.C. There, Roberta and Joseph Keithley had been sleeping on cots set up in a school classroom since Friday. They still didn’t know if their home was ruined.

“It’s getting a little frustrating, but you have to deal with it and roll with the punches,” said Roberta, 73. “It’s just another hurdle to get over in life.”

Trump: ‘I don’t have an attorney general’ POLITICS President Trump escalated his attacks on Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Tuesday, offering a scathing assessment of his performance on the job and in his confirmation hearing.

“I don’t have an attorney general. It’s very sad,” Trump said in an interview with Hill.TV, in which he also said Sessions came off as “mixed up and confused” when he appeared before the Senate Judiciary Committee in January 2017.

Trump has long been publicly critical of Sessions’ decision to recuse himself from the investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and has said that he regrets nominating him to lead the Justice Department.

But in the Hill.TV interview, Trump offered broader criticism, including on Sessions’ handling of immigration issues, which has been cheered by Trump allies.

“I’m not happy at the border, I’m not happy with numerous things, not just this,” he said, referring to the Russia investigation.

Sessions has implemented some of the most aggressive and controversial steps to try to crack down on illegal immigration — emphasizing “zero tolerance” for those who come to the country illegally, defending the policy of separating families, and issuing a ruling

that limits those who qualify for asylum, among other things.

Trump doubled down on his criticism of Sessions as he left the White House on Wednesday morning for North Carolina to survey hurricane damage.

“I’m disappointed in the attorney general for many reasons, and you understand that,” he told reporters.

Trump, as president, could fire Sessions at any time, but he has chosen instead merely to insult his attorney general.

“We’ll see how it goes with Jeff,” Trump told Hill.TV when asked about Sessions’ future. “I’m very disappointed in Jeff. Very disappointed.”JOHN WAGNER AND MATT ZAPOTOSKY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Kim says he’ll dismantle key complex, but only if U.S. takes steps, too PYONGYANG, NORTH KOREA The leaders of North and South Korea announced a wide range of agreements Wednesday that they said were a major step toward peace on the Korean Peninsula. But the premier pledge on denuclearization contained a big condition, with North Korean

leader Kim Jong Un stating that he’d permanently dismantle his main nuclear complex only if the United States takes unspecified corresponding measures.

Compared to the vague language of their two summits earlier this year, Kim and South Korean President Moon Jae-in agreed in their second day of meetings to an ambitious program meant to tackle last year’s soaring tensions that had many fearing war as the North tested a string

of increasingly powerful weapons.

Kim promised to accept international inspectors to monitor the closing of a key missile test site and launch pad and to visit Seoul soon, and both leaders vowed to

work together to try to host the Summer Olympics in 2032.

But while containing several tantalizing offers, their joint statement appeared to fall short of the major steps many in Washington

have been looking for — such as a commitment by Kim to provide a list of North Korea’s nuclear facilities, a solid step-by-step timeline for closing them down or an agreement to allow international inspectors to assess progress or discover violations.

The question is whether it will be enough for President Trump to pick up where Moon has left off.

Trump told reporters Wednesday that the outcome of the summit was “very good news” and that “we’re making tremendous progress” with North Korea. He didn’t indicate whether the U.S. would be willing to take further steps to encourage North Korean action on denuclearization.

nation+world Ordinance says men can no longer divorce by saying ‘talaq’ 3 times NEW DELHI India’s government on Wednesday approved an ordinance to implement a top court ruling striking down the Muslim practice that allows men to instantly divorce.

The government decision came after it failed to get approval from Parliament a year after the court ruled that the practice of allowing men to divorce by simply uttering the Arabic word for

divorce — “talaq” — three times violated the constitutional rights of Muslim women.

Most of the 170 million Muslims in India are Sunnis governed by the Muslim Personal Law for family matters and disputes. The laws include allowing the practice, known as “triple talaq,” whereby men can divorce by simply saying the word three times — and not necessarily consecutively, but at any time, and by any medium, including telephone, text message or social media post.

The government will have another six months to get

India’s Muslim Law Board had told the court that while it considered the practice wrong, it opposed any court intervention and asked that the matter be left to the community. But several progressive Muslim activists decried the law board’s position.

A stalemate over testimony SUPREME COURT President Trump offered a robust defense of Judge Brett Kavanaugh on Wednesday, saying it was “very hard for me to imagine anything happened” with the woman who has accused the Supreme Court nominee of sexually assaulting her when both were teenagers.

The president’s assessment came as it remained uncertain whether Christine Blasey Ford, Kavanaugh’s accuser, would testify before the Senate Judiciary Committee on Monday, and as Republican senators grew increasingly impatient and implored her to appear.

Judiciary Committee Chairman Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, asked Ford’s attorneys to respond

by Friday at 10 a.m. on whether she plans to appear before his panel. While Grassley has been flexible on some aspects of her testimony — such as whether she wants to speak in private or publicly — he and other Republicans have not budged from the Monday schedule, nor are they willing to accommodate her request for an FBI investigation before she testifies.

“I have reopened the hearing because I believe that anyone who comes forward with allegations of sexual assault has a right to be heard, and because it is the committee’s responsibility

to fully evaluate the fitness of a nominee to the Supreme Court,” Grassley wrote to Ford’s lawyers.

“I therefore want to give Dr. Ford an opportunity to tell her story to the Senate and, if she chooses, to the American people.”

Grassley is also willing to send his staff to California to speak to Ford if she prefers, committee spokesman Garrett Ventry said.

Ford is a psychology professor at Palo Alto University, located northwest of San Jose.

Late Wednesday, Ford’s lawyer issued a statement reiterating that a full investigation needs to be conducted before a hearing is held, but she made no mention of whether Ford would testify if the hearing goes on as planned.

The lawyer, Lisa Banks, also criticized the committee for inviting only Ford and Kavanaugh to testify.

“The Committee’s stated plan to move forward with a hearing that has only two witnesses is not

a fair or good faith investigation; there are multiple witnesses whose names have appeared publicly and should be included in any proceeding,” Banks said.

“The rush to a hearing is unnecessary, and contrary to the Committee discovering the truth.”

The standoff over Ford’s testimony persisted as Trump, in his most effusive defense of Kavanaugh yet, praised him as “an extraordinary man” with “an unblemished record,” and said what he is experiencing is “unfair.”

Still, the president also said that Ford deserves to be heard by the Judiciary Committee.

“If she shows up and makes a credible showing, that will be very interesting, and we’ll have to make a decision,” he told reporters.

Republican senators are signaling that they are prepared to forge ahead with a committee vote for Kavanaugh sometime next week — if not at the highstakes hearing itself.

Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, a pivotal swing vote on Kavanaugh’s confirmation, and Sen. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., a member of the Judiciary Committee, both urged Ford to speak to senators Monday.

Sen. Bob Corker, R-Tenn., who also pushed the Senate to hit pause on the nomination until lawmakers hear from the professor, said: “If we don’t hear from both sides on Monday, let’s vote.” JOHN WAGNER AND SEUNG MIN KIM (THE WASHINGTON POST)

WASHINGTONPOST.COM THE FIX

For Ford, worst is yet to come, expert says Nothing adequately prepares a sex crime victim for the moment she goes public.

Christine Blasey Ford, who alleges that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her decades ago, may do so on a national stage before the Senate Judiciary Committee next week, a fate most high-profile criminal courts opt to avoid for sex crime victims.

Monday’s hearing is not a trial.

But lawyer Douglas Wigdor, an expert in sexual assault, said preparing victims of sexual assault to testify in court poses similar challenges.

Wigdor represented hotel maid Nafissatou Diallo in her 2011 civil sexual assault claim against the then-managing director of the International Monetary Fund, Dominique Strauss-Kahn.

According to Wigdor, it’s important that the lawyer working with Ford knows all the facts before the hearing — good or bad. And while prepping a witness is key, Monday will undoubtedly be overwhelming for Ford. She is set to sit in front of the Senate, her testimony and image broadcast to the nation, and be questioned by senators who have already expressed skepticism about her accusation.

Ford also faces the pressure of appearing on a national stage. And while Kavanaugh has testified before the Senate on several occasions, Ford has not.

Bryce Harper says he’s focused on enjoying the District whether or not he returns.

CY YOUNG CHASE

Writers like deGrom over Scherzer

Next seven Nats games could be D.C.’s last shot to see star wear curly W MLB Nationals players flew home to Washington early Wednesday and drove back to their apartments, many of which are probably packed up by now. Even in playoff seasons, clubhouse staffs help players pack up their lockers and ship out boxes on the last homestand. The Nationals, who are fending off mathematical elimination, won’t likely return to Nationals Park in October.

So the trip home for seven games against the Mets and the Marlins might have been the last flight “home” to D.C. for some of these Nationals. Bryce Harper is one of those players, his muchdiscussed free agency getting closer by the day. What might be his final season with the Nationals could be over in less than two weeks.

These seven games could be the last he plays in front of Nationals fans as one of their own.

“I haven’t really thought about it,” Harper said. “I think it’ll really hit that last game I guess, running off the field or something like that. I’m just trying to enjoy it and see what happens.”

Harper’s trajectory is welldocumented. No part of his emergence as the Nationals’ first

true, homegrown superstar has surprised anyone. No part of this season, of the fact that he never signed an extension, of the endless speculation, felt shocking.

Even the fact that he struggled early in the season made some sense. Contract years affect players in different ways, and Harper has been asked about his next contract for years. But publicly, he has not let that explain, excuse, or even factor into how he talks about this season. “[Nothing’s been different] for me. For me, I’ve just been trying to enjoy my last year in D.C., if that’s how it’s going to happen,” Harper said. “Like I’ve said all along, I love D.C. I love being here. I love being a part of this organization. We’ll see if I’m in those plans or not going forward.”

Earlier this season, Harper seemed to have difficulty enjoying himself. His answers were quiet and calculated. His numbers were low enough that some industry insiders wondered if he had cost himself millions on what many had long speculated would be a record deal. Then came that stunning Home Run Derby comeback, which seemed to restore some of Harper’s swagger.

Manager Dave Martinez says Harper has handled a crazy year “really well,” and that he hasn’t seen the contract situation affect him as it has other players.

get sentimental about his time in D.C., Martinez dodged.

“I don’t think he thinks of it that way. … He wants to finish out the season and let it play out,” Martinez said. “I know he wants to come back. Whether that happens or not, we’ll see. But I love having him.”

The most complicated part of this homestand is that the Nats can’t stage a farewell party, and Harper can’t totally treat it like one. Both parties have worked hard not to betray their intent.

Each side will stay coy because each could use the leverage in any negotiation with the other down the line.

But that cat-and-mouse game prevents closure. Whatever happens, emotions are coming, as they did in that Home Run Derby. This season will not end the way Harper or the Nationals hoped it would. The question now is whether his Nationals tenure will end with it.

The Nationals host the Mets for a fourgame series that begins tonight (7:05, MASN), and although both teams are likely irrelevant to the postseason, fans will get to see the leaders for the NL Cy Young Award.

Max Scherzer (17-7, 2.53 ERA), below, faces New York’s Jason Vargas tonight. Jacob deGrom (8-9, 1.78 ERA) starts against Washington’s Joe Ross on Friday. In a survey of baseball writers released Tuesday by MLB.com, de Grom received 30 of 33 first-place votes.

Scherzer, who could start twice more after tonight, got three. He leads the majors in strikeouts (277) and innings pitched (206⅔).

DeGrom has allowed three runs or fewer in 27 straight starts.

NBA finds misconduct in Mavericks Cuban’s team required to adopt plan to halt harassment in office DALLAS The NBA on Wednesday announced the findings of a sevenmonth investigation into workplace misconduct in the Dallas Mavericks’ organization, detailing the issues in a 43-page report by former city and state prosecutors in New York and New Jersey.

The report details allegations of rampant sexual harassment against former team president

and CEO Terdema Ussery and two domestic violence incidents involving former team website writer Earl K. Sneed. Investigators interviewed 215 current and former employees and evaluated more than 1.6 million documents, including emails. The report stemmed from accusations made in Sports Illustrated.

Owner Mark Cuban, left, has agreed to pay $10 million — four times the NBA’s maximum fine — to “organizations that are committed to supporting the leadership and development of women in the sports industry and

Minnesota swingman Jimmy Butler issued a trade request to coach and team president Tom Thibodeau on Tuesday when the two had a face-to-face meeting in Los Angeles, according to multiple reports Wednesday. The Timberwolves acquired Butler, an All-Star in each of the past four seasons, in a trade with Chicago before last season.

He told Thibodeau he plans to opt out of his deal after this season and become a free agent in July.

Butler reportedly said he would agree to a long-term extension with three preferred destinations â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the Clippers, the Knicks or the Nets.

The Black Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s path is changing After 25 years, the club is not going anywhere â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but it is shrinking VENUES Dante Ferrando watched as the neighborhood around the Black Cat lost its quirky bagel shop, card shop, pet shop and post office, and filled back up with a Trader Joeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, a Madewell and high-end apartment complexes.

By the time a Lululemon and a SoulCycle moved onto 14th Street NW, the giant cat scrawled

in purple paint on the facade of his nightclub had started to look out of place. But the Black Cat kept rocking.

Last weekend, the club celebrated its 25th anniversary, and Ferrando announced big plans that he hopes will carry his legendary club into the future: Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to shrink it in half.

The clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main stage, he says, can still draw music fans from around the region. But a packed crowd in the Red Roomâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oversize space, with its jukebox that always seems to be playing Sonic Youth, and its cafe churning out plates of vegan nachos â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen anymore.

Ferrando wants to be clear that the Black Catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new moves are not the beginnings of some long goodbye. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s survival.

But does the Black Cat even fit in on 14th Street anymore? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Did we ever?â&#x20AC;? he asks. LAVANYA RAMANATHAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

MASCOT

Jack the Bulldog is probably the shortest celebrity in D.C. Jack — his official American Kennel Club name is “Compatible’s John B. Carroll,” but he’s casually known as JTB — pads around his Georgetown neighborhood on four feet and below knee level. Normally, Jack, 5, spends his days fulfilling his duties as the official mascot of the Georgetown Hoyas, appearing at games as well as school events like graduation and move-in day. Though he’s unpaid, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t have drive. “He’s super attention-motivated,” says McKenzie Stough, Georgetown’s director of digital engagement and social media and Jack’s caretaker/translator/roommate. “He’s constantly looking for people to pay attention to him.” While Jack might be small and stout, for his dream day — as told through Stough — he’s certainly dreaming big. chicken finger Thursdays at Leo O’Donovan Dining Hall.

Then he might go to local watering hole The Tombs because he certainly needs his second breakfast; he might order a bacon burger. Then he envisions that he would run into our famous Georgetown alum Bradley Cooper, and Jack

He puts on his tux and jumps on his skateboard [usually a spectacle seen at halftime at basketball games] and heads to the National Mall, and D.C. has closed all the roads for him so he can have a special skateboard parade. All of his local fans are going to line up along his route and they’re chanting “JTB” as he goes by. He arrives at the grand opening of the Smithsonian Museum of Canine History. He’s going to work the red carpet; he’s probably flanked by Sunny and Bo [Obama] and Marlon Bundo [Pence], and maybe Bei Bei is also there. They’re going to serve pigs in a blanket as hors d’oeuvres, so he gets another meal. Then he’s going to deliver the keynote remarks, and he wants to offer some life advice to everyone: Eat, sleep, eat more and always make sure that you treat yourself.

He goes to bed very early, so he’ll put himself to bed around 9 p.m. And we maybe glossed over the [day’s] naps, but they are very frequent.

He’s definitely going to stop and visit with famous Washingtonians; they’re all going to pet him, so it will take hours to go downtown. He wants all the human attention in the world.

He is not really an early riser. A lot of times he will wake up when the sun is rising across the Potomac and he’ll open one eye to see what’s going on, make some light grunting noises and then he’ll sleep for a couple more hours.

The score’s composer will conduct the NSO for a KenCen screening

FILM It’s become a fact of life for those who run modern orchestras: Movies sell. Performing a film’s music live has become a regular feature of many symphonies’ seasons. Scores from the “Star Wars,” “Harry Potter” and “Indiana Jones” series have all become orchestral standards.

“Get Out” is not one of the standards.

The 2017 indie, about a black man who encounters unexpected terror while visiting his white girlfriend’s family home, was a box office and awards success story, picking up an Oscar for best original screenplay and three other nominations, including best picture. But you can’t say the score is a toe-tapper.

That’s OK — Michael Abels admits it, and he wrote it.

“I know there are parts of this score no one is ever going to hum,” says Abels, who will conduct the National Symphony

Orchestra when it performs “Get Out’s” score live as the movie plays at the Kennedy Center’s Concert Abels Hall on Thursday.

“But when people are playing the music [live], you can’t help but notice them. I think you become aware of why [the score] is the way it is when you see what’s going on on the screen. You understand how clearly music is participating in the feeling that you get from watching that film.”

Giving audiences a different perspective is one of the reasons Justin Ellis, artistic administrator for the National Symphony, helped bring this world-premiere performance of “Get Out” to D.C. “It will really illuminate some of the subtle genius that [writerdirector] Jordan Peele was going for,” Ellis says, “where you don’t realize this really creepy scene actually had 40 string players playing very, very high notes very softly.”

Subtlety was always Abels’ and Peele’s aim. One song, whose title roughly translates to “Listen

to Your Ancestors,” is a choral piece performed in Swahili. “The voices are supposed to represent the departed souls of slaves and lynching victims, and they’re trying to warn the lead character about the danger he’s in,” Abels says. “But ghosts speak to us in shadows and dreams. I knew having them sing in English would be a little too in-your-face — you would be aware of the music in a way that you’re not supposed to.”

Now, the Heritage Signature Chorale will perform “Listen to Your Ancestors,” bringing what was in the background to center stage. Abels is comfortable with the shift in emphasis.

“If you’ve never stopped to think about film music,” the composer says, “hearing it performed live causes you to really realize the magic and wonder that music provides to film.”

With “Get Out” coming to the concert stage, audience members will get to hear the music again — for the first time.

Spirits moved her to shake up the biz MARK SORIANO

FESTIVALS Most 25-year-olds are just trying to figure out their path in life. But D.C. resident Chanel Turner already knew by then what her path was: building her own vodka brand.

Turner, now 34, wasn’t out to compete with the Grey Gooses and Belvederes of the world. Instead, she wanted to fill a void in the spirits market by creating a vodka that someone could drink straight, without the unpleasant afterburn.

“I can’t remember anyone I knew that wanted to consume a vodka by itself,” Turner says. “I wanted to bring that experience back, where you can actually consume it without having to mix it with sugary juices.”

In 2009, Turner launched Fou-Dre Vodka (the name is based on the French word for lightning, “foudre”). The process of getting Fou-Dre to store shelves took nearly four years, but Turner was insistent on getting all the details right. She tested over 80 different vodka formulas at a Charleston, S.C., plant — where Fou-Dre is now distilled and bottled — before

choosing the brand’s signature pomegranate-infused flavor.

Behind the scenes, Turner continued working her 9-to-5 job as a government contractor.

“You can say that I have two full-time jobs,” she jokes, noting that she still balances her government job with Fou-Dre. Fou-Dre — and its lightning bolt-shaped bottles — became available for purchase in 2013.

The vodka is currently sold in over 40 stores in the D.C. area and Georgia, in addition to countries including Japan, Singapore and Jamaica. Fou-Dre’s business operations are headquartered in an Upper Marlboro, Md., warehouse, where Turner travels regularly after work. Despite her success, Turner says her biggest challenge is finding acceptance within the spirits industry, both as an independent owner and as a woman of color.

“I would set up meetings with different distributors, and they weren’t expecting to see someone like myself,” she says. “It’s hard as a woman of color, especially in an industry that’s dominated by white men.”

According to Turner, the racial discrimination she experienced during these meetings was a big reason she was unable to obtain a distribution deal for Fou-Dre. “We had a lot of challenges

with finding a distributor in the beginning,” she says. “Eventually, we ended up having to obtain our own distribution license for the state of Maryland and D.C.” Turner soon realized she wasn’t alone. In 2015, online business directory Official Black Wall Street featured Fou-Dre and several other black-owned wine and spirits brands, many of which Turner had no idea

existed. The article inspired her to launch the Black Owned Wine and Spirits Festival in 2016.

“There are a lot of mainstream products out there, but there are also small craft products that we could be supporting,” Turner says.

In 2017, attendance at the festival doubled from the inaugural event’s turnout. Turner anticipates over 2,000 attendees at this

year’s celebration, which features 30 to 40 wine, beer and spirits brands from across the country.

“We are one of the only spirits festivals in the country where you can taste the product and actually buy it on-site,” Turner says. “Last year, all of our vendors sold out.”

Turner plans to introduce Fou-Dre’s new “straight” line of vodka (with no flavor infusions) at the festival ahead of its official launch in 2019. She hopes the event, and her success with Fou-Dre, will inspire others — particularly women of color — to start their own spirits businesses.

“I encourage them to establish relationships with black decisionmakers like themselves,” she says. “Do your homework and ensure that you’re fully prepared to step into this industry.”

Hidden Spirits Cocktails

Harlem Brewing founder Celeste Beatty is one of the few African-American brewers in the New York-New Jersey-Connecticut area, Turner says. The 18-year-old company’s trademark beer is the Sugar Hill Ale, which is brewed with locally grown hops.

Den of Thieves is one of several brands returning to the festival this year, selling its trademark chocolate- and ginger-vanillainfused whiskeys. “They were our most popular vendor from last year, so I’m excited that they’re coming back,” Turner says.

Headquartered outside Cleveland, Hidden Spirits sells ready-made cocktails that you can boost with the spirit of your choice.

“They tell you what their preferred spirit would go with a cocktail,” Turner says. “But, of course, you can use whatever you like.”

The thrills of Trillectro The festival presents stars — and the future — of hip-hop and EDM

MUSIC D.C.’s music festival circuit was fairly robust before Trillectro debuted in 2012. But co-founders Quinn Coleman, Modele “Modi” Oyewole and Marcel Marshall had an ambitious thought: What if there was a festival catering to both hip-hop and EDM fans?

“Our first trip to Coachella inspired us to start our own festival,” Coleman says. “We wanted Trillectro to bring different types of people and styles of music together for a day of highenergy performances.”

Just four months after going to Coachella in 2012, the Trillectro team hosted its first festival at Half Street Fairgrounds, next to Nationals Park. Since then, the event has swelled into one of the largest music festivals in the area, moving to the sprawling 19,000-seat Merriweather Post Pavilion in 2015.

Part of Trillectro’s success has been its organizers’ ability to stay ahead of the music curve. R&B star SZA — this year’s headlining act — first performed at Trillectro back in 2014, long before her mainstream success and Grammy nominations. Like her, rapper Lil Uzi Vert, R&B artist Kehlani and rap trio Migos each performed at Trillectro as one of their first festival appearances.

In addition to the national headliners, Trillectro makes a conscious effort to include local talent. This year’s bill mixes big names like rapper 2 Chainz and electronic producer RL Grime with over a dozen up-and-coming acts from the D.C. area. Before Saturday’s festival, get to know some of the local standouts.

Innanet James

Set time: 7:45 p.m.

For fans of: Tyler, the Creator; Death Grips

Set time: 1:20 p.m.

For fans of: Anderson .Paak, Vince Staples

Rico Nasty channels the spirit of ’90s emo and sludge metal into her abrasive and razorsharp brand of hip-hop. The visceral shrills and screams that saturate many of her songs make for a cathartic listening experience and an intensely high-spirited live show. Outside of the District, her progressive style hasn’t gone unnoticed — the Largo, Md., native recently signed a major label deal with Atlantic Records.

Innanet James is ready to take on the mainstream rap world. Or, at least his buoyant delivery and unwavering confidence make him seem like he’s gearing up for something bigger beyond the District. He boasts an impressive range of musical stylings — house, trap, R&B — that earned him a spot on the “Madden NFL 19” soundtrack alongside MVPs Cardi B and Post Malone.

Jungle Fever

Beau Young Prince

Set time: 8 p.m.

For fans of: RL Grime, Kaytranada

Set time: 2:10 p.m.

For fans of: Lil Uzi Vert, GoldLink

Jungle Fever is a dance party started by prolific D.C. DJs Mane Squeeze and Mista Selecta, who wanted to spotlight their eclectic musical tastes under one roof. There’s a little something for everyone at Jungle Fever: You’ll hear some of the go-to club staples, but there’s a chance you’ll also hear a surprise run of go-go songs somewhere in the mix.

Beau Young Prince occupies a refreshing middle ground between Trillectro’s two main genres. The rapper’s smooth flow and jaunty future-bounce sound shine best on tracks like “Kill Moe,” a breezy summer tune that serves as a sonic love letter to his Washington roots (“Goddamn my city got bounce/ D.C. be the land of the chop”).

weekendpass Wiseguy Pizza Clockwise from top left: Toufan and Mint Lemonade cocktails, kubbat halab, wings and muhammara at The Green Zone.

300 Massachusetts Ave. NW; open Sundays through Wednesdays until 1 a.m., Thursdays until 4 a.m., and Fridays & Saturdays until 5 a.m.

There’s drunk pizza and then there’s Wiseguy’s, the best New York-style pie in the city. Mix and match the thin, crispy and gooey king-size slices, sold with toppings that can satisfy meat lovers (buffalo chicken; potato and bacon), veggie fans (mushroom truffle) and beyond (chicken paneer; penne in vodka sauce). Don’t worry, pizza purists — they also carry the classics and make a mean margherita. The line regularly snakes out the door after midnight, but there’s ample seating inside and outside. In a rush to get home? Make like a New Yorker: Fold your slice in half and hail a cab. M.M.

The Green Zone

It’s 10:40 on a Friday night at The Green Zone, and everyone is shouting, joyfully, as they crowd around the dance floor or watch the bartender shake up two cocktails at a time. You forget you’re in Washington, thanks in part to the food, which includes many Iraqi and Lebanese dishes you won’t find elsewhere in the city. Order the kubbat halab (a mix of beef and lamb wrapped in rice and fried until crispy), any of the mana’ish (flatbread with za’atar, labneh, cheese or vegetables), the muhammara (red pepper and walnut dip) or Lebanese-style falafel. Food is served until last call and comes remarkably fast — fuel for dancing or happy dreaming. K.E.

balls showered with Parmesan cheese — that play nicely with a beer-braised marinara sauce. For something more substantial, go with a fried chicken sandwich that complements crispy, tender white meat with a cilantro-heavy Peruvian Pio Pio sauce. G.H.

2425 18th St. NW; open Sundays & Mondays until midnight, Tuesdays & Wednesdays until 2:30 a.m., Thursdays until 3 a.m., and Fridays & Saturdays until 4 a.m.

If you’ve wandered into Amsterdam Falafelshop late, you’re probably under the influence of Adams Morgan, so you won’t notice that the employees are unamused by your presence. You’re here for the goods coming out of the fryer — crispy fries and falafel

balls — and the freedom to top them with anything your heart desires: cabbage, cucumber, beets, pickled cauliflower, tahini and so much more. K.E.

Ravi Kabob 305 N. Glebe Road; open Mondays through Thursdays until 1 a.m., Fridays & Saturdays until 2 a.m., Sundays until midnight.

One bite of the special samosa confirms that the area’s preeminent kebab house, opened by owner Mohammad Afzal in 1997, hasn’t lost its edge. The toppings on the fried potato purse — spiced chickpeas, yogurt raita, raw jalapeno, tomatoes and cilantro — push and pull your palate between spicy heat and cool. The halal kebabs are spectacular — you can see tomorrow’s speared meats marinating in a refrigerated case.

One in Every Crowd

Pie slinger Laura King prepares treats for late-night customers at Dangerously Delicious Pies.

DAYNA SMITH (FOR THE WASHINGTON POST)

The deep-fried spicy pork chop at New Big Wong.

But the true prize is the bone-in chicken karahi for two: chopped chicken bobs in a deep-red curry with matchsticks of fresh ginger. It was no surprise that the restaurant was full well after 11 p.m. on a recent Saturday. G.H.

Lucy Ethiopian 8301 Georgia Ave., Silver Spring; open Sundays through Thursdays until 2 a.m., Fridays & Saturdays until 3 a.m.

The restaurant’s vegan combination, served on a platter of tangy injera bread, includes deft takes on curry-stained cabbage, berbere-spiced lentils, a hearty mix

of potatoes and carrots, and more.

The mound of chilled ground beets is a welcome surprise, and crisp kale leaves brimming with garlic are a highlight. Lucy Ethiopian’s kifto special — chopped prime beef blended with clarified butter and a mild, coriander-heavy mitmita spice mix — offers complex bites for carnivores. G.H.

New Big Wong 610 H St. NW; open Sundays through Thursdays until 3 a.m., Fridays & Saturdays until 5 a.m.

On bleary weekend mornings, when the lights in New Big Wong’s barebones basement dining room stay

on until 5 a.m., tipsy barhoppers crash up against waves of chefs and bartenders all craving something to eat after work. The menu contains hundreds of Cantonese, Szechuan and American-Chinese dishes, but the service industry pros know what to order: plates of dry scallop fried rice, head-on salt-and-pepper shrimp, and crispy fried pork chops.

It’s some of the most delicious and satisfying Chinese food in a Chinatown that’s a shadow of its former self. F.H.

Dangerously Delicious Pies 1339 H St. NE; open Mondays through Thursdays until midnight, Fridays & Saturdays until 3:30 a.m., Sundays until 10 p.m.

Generous slices of pie — and we’re not talking pizza here — come out of the oven at H Street’s Dangerously Delicious, which recently opened a bar and music venue upstairs.

Order at the downstairs counter, but know that it may take time to decide among the 30-plus sweet and savory options, such as chicken curry, ratatouille and chocolate chess. Even with the steady stream of traffic during a recent visit — some picking up orders and others stumbling in and settling for something filling — it was oddly quiet downstairs. K.E.

Brains of the outfit

“If we get hurt, we don’t get paid,” Triplett says. So all riders born after Oct. 15, 1994, are required to wear helmets (older guys can opt in if they want). “It’s basically a hockey shell with a modified face mask. If I get stepped on, it might not be as bad as if I don’t wear a helmet.”

Out of the ring, Triplett prefers cowboy hats made by Texas-based American Hat Company. “They make all my hats. I’ve liked them since I was a little kid,” Triplett says.

“They feel good, they’re light and they look good, too.”

Ropin’ for business

To hang on to the rope, professional bull riders use whatever they’ve got. “We get [the rope] as sticky as we can,” Triplett says. “To make our rosin, we use tree sap [and] the stickiest stuff you can think of and mix it all together. If we lose our [grip], we’ll get thrown off the back and blown way up in the air.”

prevent a lot of internal bleeding” should the rider meet the business end of a bull’s head, Triplett says.

Stab prevention is its main purpose, but it will provide a little relief if hoof meets chest. A little. “If you get kicked, it’s still going to hurt, don’t get me wrong.”

The waist down is largely about style. The chaps — those leather things with the fringe — “do help us in the chute; if a bull is leaning on us it’ll kind of protect our legs a little bit,” Triplett says. “But mainly our chaps are for sponsors, logos and just looks.” Riders with sponsors sport what the company dictates, while riders without sponsors can wear whatever they want. Tool company DeWalt sponsors Triplett’s chaps; Ariat provides his jeans. “You may wear a lucky pair of jeans, if you’re a guy who believes in luck,” Triplett says. “I just grab the Ariats.”

One outfit, a lot of bucks It was a strange man (and let’s assume it was a man) who was the first person to look at a 2,000-pound horned animal and say, “Yeah, I’m gonna ride that and see how long I can hang on.” Matt Triplett said that at 6. Triplett, one of the riders competing this weekend in the U.S. Border Patrol Invitational, part of the PBR Unleash the Beast tour, “was born to it,” he says. “My dad rode bulls. I got on my first steer when I was 8, my first big bull when I was 12.” Now 27, Triplett, who lives in Montana, has been a professional bull rider for seven years and is currently ranked 28th in the world. The goal of his sport is simple: Get on the bull, try to hang on for eight seconds, and get points based on how fast the bull spins, how much he kicks and how high he jumps. To do all that, you need gear that helps you out from head to toe. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Thigh masters

Spin control

The spurs are not the spiky metal circles made famous in Westerns. In the PBR (the league for professional bull riders), “you can pick from two different kinds,” Triplett says. “They do not cut the bull. If we mess with

our spurs in any way and they cut the bull, it’s a $10,000 fine. If the cut is bigger, the fine goes up from there,” Triplett says. “I can hit [the rowel of the spur] on my arm, run it up and down my skin, and it won’t cut me. And the bull’s skin is way tougher than ours.”

6

Raging bull

The bucking bull underneath Triplett is Frequent Flyer, who has thrown off every rider since 2016.

It’s not as though he’s Triplett’s nemesis, though — in fact, Triplett doesn’t even remember him. “You’ll meet up with some bulls that you’ve been on before,” he says. “But we have so many different contractors, it’s like being put up against a new athlete.” Triplett is also careful to point out that the bulls’ welfare is paramount. His family raises bulls as well as rides them, and “when I got home from school, I’m feeding the bulls, I’m taking care of the bulls before I get a snack or before I’m doing my homework,” he says.

“When we back up our trailer and we’re getting ready to go to an event, they’re pawing the ground, just wanting to go, loving their job.

These bulls are pets to us. They’re family.”

Can ‘Serial’ repeat success?

Season 3 arrives amid a true-crime boom the series helped create

Edugyan is a novelist worth recognizing

SANDY HONIG

PODCASTS During the year Sarah Koenig spent embedded in Cleveland’s Justice Center Complex for the upcoming season of “Serial,” a few employees on separate occasions mistook her for a student journalist and asked what school she attended.

“School? I’m pushing 50 — I barely remember where I went to school,” the host recalls thinking. And then: “Oh, I look sloppy.

I’m by myself. I’m this random creature walking around your place of work.”

Even the bellwether of the criminal justice podcasting world doesn’t get recognized in a courthouse. But maybe a close listener would have recognized Koenig by her voice.

After all, “Serial” has been downloaded more than 340 million times since it launched in 2014, with Koenig and her steady inflection leading its serialized exploration of whether Baltimore County high schooler Adnan Syed was rightfully convicted of murdering his ex-girlfriend.

The podcast ushered the medium into the mainstream, becoming the first to win a Peabody Award.

It also exposed an appetite for true-crime stories that has since been satiated by a growing number of podcasts, such as “STown,” “Missing & Murdered” and “Wine & Crime.” The craze even stretches across media, to

The “Serial” Season 3 creative team features, from left, Julie Snyder, Emmanuel Dzotsi, Sarah Koenig and Ira Glass.

which those who have binged HBO’s “The Jinx” or Netflix’s “Making a Murderer” can attest.

“Serial’s” 2016 second season, about the desertion of U.S. soldier Bowe Bergdahl, attracted an average of 10.6 million listeners per episode versus the first season’s 17.3 million. And, on Thursday, it is in this saturated true-crime environment — partially of “Serial’s” own making — that the show releases Season 3, which heads in a decidedly different direction than its predecessors.

Koenig and fellow reporter Emmanuel Dzotsi tackle the criminal justice system as a whole by presenting Cleveland cases, each allotted one to three episodes.

But will the podcast’s newest

“People feel like they know me, and they want me to tell them a story, which is a weird thing for me.”

SARAH KOENIG, host of the popular podcast “Serial,” on the connection she forms with listeners

endeavor be heard above the noise?

“There are a lot of reporters, there are a lot of researchers, there are a lot of people who have been banging this drum

for a while, wanting to talk about the criminal justice system,” cocreator Julie Snyder says.

Koenig notes that one of the “magical things about podcasting” is its ability to form a unique connection between the storytellers and listeners. Despite the meticulous reporting process and its prestigious standing, “Serial” can stand out for being quite informal.

“We did not invent murder stories or crime stories or true crime, obviously,” Koenig says. “People feel like they know me, and they want me to tell them a story, which is a weird thing for me, but there is definitely a segment of our audience that will just tune in for that … because it’s ‘Serial.’ ” SONIA RAO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

FILM

James, Coogler headline ‘Space Jam’ squad

“Black Panther” director Ryan Coogler will produce a “Space Jam” sequel starring LeBron James, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The film will be directed by Terence Nance, creator of the HBO series “Random Acts of Flyness,” with production tentatively scheduled for the 2019 NBA offseason.

The 1996 original featured Michael Jordan alongside a host of Looney Tunes characters. (EXPRESS)

Variety: Disney developing miniseries on Marvel heroes including Loki, Scarlet Witch

BOOK REVIEW “Washington Black” should finally get American readers to wake up to Esi Edugyan, an extraordinary writer across our northern border whose 2011 novel “Half-Blood Blues” inspired a chorus of international praise.

Released Tuesday, the Canadian novelist’s new book is an engrossing hybrid of 19th-century adventure and contemporary subtlety, a riproaring tale of peril imbued with our most persistent strife.

The story comes to us as a memoir written by a former slave named George Washington Black, an ironic appellation that pricks at the festering wound in American mythology. When we first meet “Wash,” he’s about 11 years old, working on a plantation in Barbados. When his cruel master’s brother visits from England, Wash meets a white man who seems created from some wholly alien material.

This strange visitor is named Titch, and he will become the enduring mystery of Edugyan’s novel. No matter how high Wash and Titch float, their relationship remains freighted with complications. And it’s those brittle tensions between the privileged and the powerless that Edugyan explores so elegantly in “Washington Black.”

It makes for a thoughtful and terrifically exciting adventure.

So discover what the rest of the world already knows: Edugyan is a magical writer. RON CHARLES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

DIFFICULT

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You’ve been keeping a secret for far too long, and it’s now getting in the way of a key relationship. It’s time to tell all.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You can make things up as you go along, or you can follow the game plan and do what you are expected to do.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) The difference between “right” and “wrong” is worth some analysis and discussion today — before you end up moving in the wrong direction.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You can look back and see where you’ve been, or you can look forward and decide where you are going. You know the right choice.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Don’t complicate things today by using more words than necessary to get a certain message across. Be honest.

WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

FOUR RACK TOTAL Make a 2-7-letter word from the letters in each row. Add points of each word using scoring directions at right. Seven-letter words get a 50-point bonus. Blank tiles used as any letter have no point value. Scrabble is a trademark of Hasbro in the U.S. and Canada.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’re willing to try a new approach today, but take care. Someone may be waiting for you to step into a trap he or she has set for you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You don’t want to complain about the kinds of things that have been happening to you lately, for they are, in the main, quite positive.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) Others are likely to be envious of the kinds of things that you’ve been enjoying lately. Why not share what you have with those around you?

TODAY: The humidity remains in check, but onshore winds from the east-southeast may bring in more clouds. Still, skies should be partly sunny with pleasant highs in the upper 70s to low 80s.

Mugginess starts to make a bit of a comeback as light winds continue from the south. Otherwise it’s an uneventful night weather-wise.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) You may be frustrated with the same old things happening according to the same familiar schedule. You want to shake things up.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)The questions you ask yourself are far more important today than any that others ask of you.

Kristen Bell said she likes to smoke weed while watching “60 Minutes” and expressed interest in hosting an ecstasy party during an interview on Marc Maron’s podcast “WTF.” Acknowledging that she regularly uses a vape pen, Bell said: “I can’t do it around my kids, which is a phenomenal amount of hours each week. Once a week, if I’m just exhausted and we’re about to sit down and watch ‘60 Minutes’ — why not?” Bell went on to say that husband Dax Shepard, who is now sober, thinks she should try ecstasy. “He wants to have an ecstasy party with all of our friends,” Bell said. “He doesn’t have a problem with anyone else partaking in anything.” (EXPRESS)
