Fed Unveils Debt-Swap Program Central bank to buy $400B in long-term bonds to aid economy

SCOTT OLSON/GETTY IMAGES

The Federal Reserve said Wednesday it will shuffle $400 billion of its portfolio to try to drive down long-term interest rates and get the economy going. But economists doubted it would do much good, the stock market sold off, and the Fed itself was unusually divided over the strategy. The goal is to make mortgages and other major loans cheaper and encourage people and businesses to spend more money — providing a lift to the broader economy, which has slowed sharply more than two years after the Great Recession. But economists pointed out that Americans, still feeling insecure about the future and inclined to save rather than borrow, might not be willing to take on more debt, even at lower rates, or eligible to get it. Others see no reason to jump into the housing market when prices are still falling.

After the Federal Reserve announced it was moving to lower interest rates on consumer loans, stocks plunged because investors saw a grim forecast behind the Fed’s plans. The Dow Jones industrial average lost 283.82 points, or 2.5 percent, and closed at 11,124.84. The The loss of Standard & Poor’s 500 index fell the Dow Jones Industrial 35.33, or 2.9 percent, to 1,166.76.

In 1961, the Fed tried something similar and called it Operation Nudge but Chubby Checker’s dance craze was sweeping the nation in the era of “American Bandstand,� and the name Operation Twist stuck instead.

CHIEF GLOBA L ECONOMIST ERN A RD BAUMOHL , ON WEDNESDAY’S DECISION.

Yields on U.S. government debt were already among the lowest on record, and investors drove them down further after the Fed announcement. The yield on the 10-year Treasury bond, an indicator for mortgages and other long-term loans, closed at 1.86 percent, down from 1.93 percent the day before and the lowest since at least 1962. Along with the strategy statement, the Fed gave a stormy

overview of the economy — slow growth, high unemployment and a slumping housing market. The Fed has already said it will keep shortterm interest rates super-low into 2013, a sign that the central bank was not optimistic about the next two years.

President Obama is poised to broaden federal influence in local schools by scrapping key elements of No Child Left Behind, the Bush administration’s signature education law, and substituting his own brand of school reform. Obama and Education Secretary Arne Duncan are scheduled Friday to detail plans to waive some of the nine-year law’s toughest requirements, including the goal that every student be proficient in math and reading by 2014 or else their schools could face escalating sanctions. In exchange for relief, states must adopt changes that could include the expansion of charter schools, linking teacher evaluation to student performance and upgrading academic standards.

GPS Tracking of Kids Under Fire in Sweden

ICELANDAIR'S SENSE OF REYKJAVIK AIR, HOTEL + TOUR OF REYKJAVIK FROM $589*

Use of devices to keep kids safe at day cares raise privacy worries IjeYa^ebc Day care centers in Sweden have started using GPS systems and other electronic tracking devices to keep tabs on children during excursions, a practice that has raised ethical and practical questions. Some parents are worried day care centers will use the technology to replace staff. Others wonder whether getting children used to such surveillance could affect their idea of privacy as they age. Monica Blank-Hedqvist, the principal of a day care in the city of Borlange, said Wednesday that her staff have been using such devices during supervised walks in the forest: The kids wear vests with transmitters that staff can track. “It is excellent, it has been only positive for us,” she said. The devices are used as extra security by three teachers watch-

Not everyone is convinced the GPS systems increase security. “What a shame we don’t use the money and energy on salaries [for day care employees] instead,” columnist and mother of three Malin Wollin wrote on the tabloid Aftonbladet’s website Wednesday. Erik Janzon of at Sweden’s Data Inspection Board said the authority may investigate the matter. (AP)

Police attribute drop to public awareness, joint law enforcement MWi^_d]jed Overall serious crime is down in the Metro rail and bus system for the second quarter of this year compared to 2010, but aggravated assaults are up, according to a report from Metro Transit Police. The number of serious crimes reported is down 17 percent, with 487 incidents reported from April 1 through June 30 compared to 588 during the same period last year, the report says.

In the serious crime category, aggravated assaults totaled 34, up from 31. Thefts dropped to 204 from 270, and car thefts decreased to 29 from 35. Robbery also fell to 220 from 251, Metro data says. Transit Police Chief Michael Taborn said Tuesday that serious crime is down because of a “combination of factors, including initiatives to work with area police jurisdictions, hard work of our officers and public awareness.” Taborn called the increase in aggravated assaults “statistically insignificant” and said the assaults can include attacks on police officers, rocks thrown at buses or inju-

Region’s Wealth Shifts Census data: Richest jurisdictions see declines from 2000 MWi^_d]jed Median household incomes in the two largest, wealthiest jurisdictions in the Washington region suffered significant declines over the decade, ending up well below what they were in 2000. According to census data released Thursday, household incomes in Montgomery County fell to $89,000 in 2010, about $4,500 below a decade earlier using inflation adjusted dollars. Fairfax County lopped $3,000 off its median household incomes,

'")&&

The average income gain for people in the D.C. metropolitan area from 2000 to 2010, said Alan Berube, a demographer with the Brookings Institution.

though at $103,000 it remained the second most affluent jurisdiction after Loudoun County. Demographers say the changes are as much about population shifts as they are the recession and may signal a more long-term rearrangement of our understanding of who lives where in the region. The declines already have produced a Cinderella-worthy change in wealth rankings: Montgomery

County, home to Congressional Country Club, now has a lower median household income than Prince William County, home of the Potomac Mills outlet mall. While the census statistics on household incomes are imprecise, because they’re based on a limited number of questionnaires mailed at random, government officials say they have seen the median income slip in places once considered the epitome of posh. “The image folks have that the county’s full of super-rich people, we’re past that assumption,” said Montgomery County’s director of human resources, Joe Adler. “The county’s population has changed.” CAROL MORELLO AND TED MELLNIK (THE WASHINGTON POST )

U.S. Hikers Regain Freedom Overjoyed families celebrate as Iran allows the release of two Americans at last CkiYWj" EcWd After more than two years in Iranian custody, two Americans convicted as spies took their first steps toward home Wednesday as they bounded down from a private jet and into the arms of family for a joyful reunion in the Gulf state of Oman. The families called this “the best day of our lives,” and President Obama said their release — under a $1 million bail-for-freedom deal — was “wonderful news.” The release capped complicated diplomatic moves after a week of confusing signals by Iran’s leadership.

— A STATEMENT WEDNESDAY FROM THE FAMILIES OF JOSH FATTAL AND SHANE BAUER.

Though the story of Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer gripped America, it was on the periphery of the larger showdowns between Washington and Tehran that include Iran’s nuclear program and its ambitions to widen military and political influence in the Middle East and beyond. But — for a moment at least — U.S. officials may be adding words of thanks in addition to their calls for alarm over Iran. For Tehran, it was a chance to court some goodwill after sending a message of defiance with hard-line justice in the July 2009 arrests of the Americans along the Iran-Iraq border. “We have waited for nearly 26 months for this moment, and the joy and relief we feel at Shane and Josh’s long-awaited freedom knows

Josh Fattal, left, and Shane Bauer, right, wait to be released from Iranian custody Wednesday at the airport in Tehran. The two Americans, who had been imprisoned for more than two years, boarded a plane to the Gulf state of Oman, which helped negotiate for their freedom.

8WYaijeho

7 Bed] FWj^ je <h[[Zec Just a month ago, Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer — both 29 — were appealing their eight-year prison terms for espionage and illegal entry into Iran. They denied the charges and said they were merely hikers in Iraq’s relatively peaceful Kurdistan region who wandered close to Iran’s border. The first hint of change came last week when Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said they could be released within days. But then came the voice of the hard-line ruling clerics, who have waged a campaign against the president and his allies in recent months as part of power struggle. The clerics made it clear: Only they have the authority to set the timing and ground rules to release the men. After several days of halting progress, their defense attorney secured the necessary judicial approval for the bail Wednesday. (AP)

no bounds,” said a statement from their families. The families waited on the tarmac at a royal airfield near the main international airport in Oman’s capital, Muscat. Sarah Shourd, who was arrested with Bauer and Fattal but freed a year ago, also met the men in

Oman. She received a marriage proposal from Bauer while in prison. The last previous direct contact family members had with Bauer and Fattal was in May 2010, when their mothers were permitted a visit in Tehran. At about 20 minutes before mid-

night, Fattal and Bauer raced down the steps from the plane. The men appeared thin but in good health and made brief statements before leaving the airport with their families. “We’re so happy we are free,” Fattal told reporters in Oman. “Two years in prison is too long,” Bauer said, adding that he hoped their release from prison will also bring “freedom for political prisoners in America and Iran.” Though the hikers’ release eases one point of tension between Iran and the U.S., major conf licts still persist. Washington and European allies worry Iran is using its nuclear program as cover to develop atomic weapons and have urged for even stronger sanctions to pressure Tehran. Iran denies any efforts to make nuclear weapons. Iran is concerned about the U.S. military on its borders in Iraq and Afghanistan, and denounces U.S. influence in the Middle East. BRIAN MURPHY AND SAEED AL-NAHDY (AP)

In many ways, Wednesday’s release of the two hikers was a repeat of the scene last year when Sarah Shourd was freed on $500,000 bail. That deal, too, was mediated by Oman, an Arabian peninsula sultanate with close ties to both Tehran and Washington. The metal gates of Tehran’s Evin prison finally opened for Shourd — as they did for her companions on Wednesday — just as Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was preparing for the spotlight in New York at the U.N.’s annual gathering of world leaders. The case of the three hikers parallels that of freelance journalist Roxana Saberi, an IranianAmerican who was convicted of spying. Saberi was sentenced to eight years in prison, but an appeals court reduced that to a two-year suspended sentence and let her return to the U.S. in 2009. In May 2009, a French academic, Clotilde Reiss, also was freed after her 10-year sentence on espionagerelated charges was commuted. (AP)

Tony Romo has a fractured rib. DeAngelo Hall sees it as a bull’seye. The Redskins cornerback said Wednesday he’s hoping the Dallas Cowboys quarterback plays when the NFC East rivals meet Monday night — if only for the chance to inflict more damage. “Absolutely. I want to get a chance to put my helmet on whatever’s hurt,” Hall said. The Cowboys had an extra day off Wednesday, but Dallas coach Jason Garrett said that he remains hopeful that Romo will play against Washington. (AP)

Redskins defensive end Stephen Bowen knows his next opponent all to well — he played for the Cowboys for five years before departing for Washington as a free agent this year.

>?I 8?= M;;A

After welcoming home his healing son, Bowen faces ex-mates in Dallas J^[ H[Zia_di Stephen Bowen has been looking forward to this week for a while. The Redskins’ defensive end will travel to Dallas this weekend to take on his former team on Monday Night Football, but that’s not what has Bowen so happy. On Friday, Stephen Bowen III should finally be released from the hospital. The infant was born four months premature and has spent the first three months of his life under close watch and 24-hour care. “It’ll be a big day,” Bowen said.

Bowen’s wife, Tiffany, gave birth to twins in June. Skyler and Stephen III were born at only 24 weeks. Skyler lived for only 10 days. Stephen III weighed only 2 pounds when his father had to report to Redskins training camp. On Wednesday morning, Tiffany texted Bowen a report from the hospital: Stephen III now weighs 6 pounds, 5 ounces. “He’s a totally different baby,” Bowen said. “I was proud of him.” Bowen’s entire tenure with the Redskins has been a juggling act of sorts. Joining a new team is

É8[WijÊ H[jkhdi LaRon Landry is ready to be a beast again. The Redskins safety said Wednesday he anticipates returning from his hamstring injury for Monday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. “Don’t calm me down. Let me go,” Landry said. “Untame this beast, man. It’s been awhile.” Landry hasn’t played since last Nov. 15, when his season ended early because of an Achilles’ tendon injury. At the time, he was having his best season and appeared on the verge of becoming one of the top safeties in the NFL. Teammates say Landry was so pumped that he was running full speed during the walkthrough Wednesday morning, to the point they had to tell him to slow down. He was listed as limited for the afternoon practice, and his status remains day-by-day. (AP)

never easy, but Bowen was living apart from his family the first several weeks. They finally moved to the Washington area from Dallas earlier this month, and Stephen III was admitted to a Loudoun County hospital where he received around-theclock care. News that Stephen III will be going home soon is a relief for Bowen, who has spent his days at Redskins Park and every bit of free time at the hospital these past couple of weeks. While the Bowens will receive some in-home care to help with the transition, Bowen says it’ll soon be easier to report to work without worrying about what’s happening at the hospital. Coaches were aware of Bowen’s family situation but say Bowen never made it an issue or allowed it to interfere with his foot-

ball responsibilities. “You’re talking about somebody who’s mentally tough,” said Redskins coach Mike Shanahan. “He’s so tight with his family, cares so much about his family. For him to be able to do what he’s done is just amazing.” After spending five years with the Cowboys, Bowen signed a free agent contract with the Redskins in July. Playing alongside new nose tackle Barry Cofield, Bowen has made a quick impact on the team’s revamped defensive line. The team’s defense was ranked 31st in the league a season ago and through two games is No. 11 in total yards allowed. Only five teams have allowed fewer points thus far. Coaches will be quick to point out the unit’s success all starts up front, where Bowen and co. are charged with stopping the run, generating pressure on pass plays and opening up lanes for blitzing linebackers. “He’s what we were hoping for,” Shanahan.

Conference Upheaval on Hold Big 12, Big East live on after Pac-12 opts against expansion 9ebb[][ <eejXWbb The seismic shift in college athletics has once again been diverted. Unless there is a major surprise looming, the latest round of conference realignment will only produce a handful of changes. The 16-team superconference is again on hold.

J[nWi JWbai H[l[dk[ I^Wh_d] University of Texas officials said Wednesday they are open to a new revenue-sharing model in the Big 12 and have already suggested that top-level TV and cable money be shared equally. But Texas athletic director DeLoss Dodds says Texas doesn’t want to share the money from its Longhorn Network, a 20-year, $300 million deal with ESPN. “That’s never been in play, that’s not in play,” Dodds said.

Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State and Texas Tech were considering a move from the Big 12 to the Pac-12 — a move that could have killed the Big 12. After expanding from the Pac-10 with new members Utah and Colorado last year, mem-

bers of the new Pac-12 decided not to stretch the league farther east. Meanwhile, across the country in New York, Big East Commissioner John Marinatto emerged from a three-hour meeting with officials from the league’s football schools to say his members “pledged to each other that they are committed to move forward together.” The Big East also has been staring at an uncertain future after Pittsburgh and Syracuse announced last weekend they are moving to the Atlantic Coast Conference. But now it appears the Big East, like the Big 12, stands a good chance to survive, too — for now. (AP)

Grant denied the charges on Wednesday. Redskins coach Mike Shanahan was coy when asked if he ever encouraged the tactic. “I can’t say I have,” he said. “But I won’t say I haven’t, either.” (AP)

In short, out-of-order scenes, “Stop Kiss” tells the story of Callie and Sara, whose love affair is interrupted by a violent hate crime that leaves Sara in a coma. Why did you choose “Stop Kiss” for your first directing credit?

I was doing a show with Rachel Zampelli [who plays Callie]. She loves this play and saw that I had done it. She really wanted to play the part, and she said, “Why don’t you direct it?”

“Stop Kiss” debuted in 1998. Did you update the play at all?

LGBT community is obviously going to walk away ... identifying with the anti-gay violence. There’s also a beautiful love story between women. And then there’s Callie’s story of the journey she makes to find her own voice, and that’s universal.

No. The reason this play is timely is that the more things change, the more they stay the same — which is depressing, a little bit. There was the attack on the girls at the 7-Eleven [where five lesbians were assaulted outside the Columbia Heights Metro station in late July]. It’s more powerful that it’s taking place in 1998, because [violence] like this is still going on.

8h[m_d] Kf ÉJhekXb[ _d C_dZÊ J^[Wj[h In 1959, Lorraine Hansberry’s “A Raisin in the Sun” became the first play written by an AfricanAmerican woman to be produced on Broadway. That wasn’t the plan. Alice Childress’ 1955 work, “Trouble in Mind,” would have been the first. But when Childress’ producers asked her to make the denouement more upbeat, she refused, and the show was canceled.

“Trouble” itself, now playing at Arena Stage, mirrors that reallife drama. The story is set in 1957, behind the scenes of Broadwaybound “Chaos in Belleville,” a purportedly enlightened play about a lynching. Actress Wiletta Mayer clashes with the self-righteous white director when she balks at playing yet another stock “mammy” role. Childress wrote eight different endings before deciding that a trite, tidy conclusion would “mean the play meant nothing,” says E. Faye Butler, who stars as Wiletta. “She said, ‘Life isn’t like that. That’s why I wrote it.’” The issues Childress depicted in “Trouble” are still very much

Arena’s production of a 1955 play faces race issues head-on

“Trouble in Mind” raises questions of a different nature. “On the first day we did this piece, [director Irene Lewis] said, ‘I am not black. I do not know what your story is, but I think the story needs to be told,’ Butler says. “How many directors will I find that will ever say that to me? I can count them on one hand. “I know it sounds kind of simple, but people don’t want to move forward as much as we think they do,” Butler adds. “I still go to auditions where people ask me, ‘Can you be more black?’ What do you mean? I am black.”

After 17 years of change, the band keeps its edge with its steadiest lineup

M_bYe J^[ Cki_Y

Cki_Y Wilco’s forthcoming eighth album, “The Whole Love,” could easily have been called “The Whole Wilco.” More than perhaps any of the band’s previous studio offerings, “The Whole Love,” out on Tuesday, encompasses everything that Wilco is capable of — from the alt-country of the band’s early days to the sunsoaked pop of 1999’s “Summerteeth” to its more experimental fringes. After a tumultuous first decade, the band’s current roster has endured for more than seven years now. Featuring singer Jeff Tweedy, bassist John Stirratt, drummer Glenn Kotche, guitarist Nels Cline, keyboardist Mikael Jorgensen and multi-instrumentalist Pat Sansone, it’s the closest the Chicagobased group has come to stability in its 17-year run. “It’s never comfortable,” says Stirratt, the only member to have stuck with Tweedy since the band’s formation in 1994. He watched six members leave the band before making three records with the current lineup. But

Tweedy recruits the remaining band members for Wilco, while Farrar starts over with Son Volt. Wilco releases “A.M.” in 1995.

'//,0 Wilco releases the dense double album “Being There,” the first disc with multi-instrumentalist Jay Bennett.

“I feel like these guys have been in the band [since the beginning],” he says. “They’ve taken ownership in a lot of ways. They get it.” This connection comes through from the new album’s first track, “Art of Almost,” a dense, electro-rock jam that ends with a scorching Nels Cline guitar solo. “It was unexpected, that’s for sure,” Cline says of the song. “Usually, the last thing anybody wants me to do in Wilco is play finger-wiggle guitar.” “The Whole Love” is the band’s first album on its own label, dBpm Records. The move has been a long time coming, dating back to 2001, when Warner Bros. famously dropped the group after deeming “Yankee Hotel Foxtrot” commercially unviable. Stirratt says the band considered going independent back then, but “to go from having Warner distribution [to nothing] — that was like jumping into the abyss.”

(&&'0 After butting heads one too many times with Tweedy, Bennett is fired from Wilco after the completion of “Yankee Hotel Foxtrot.” Wilco is then dropped from Warner Bros. after delivering the album, which the label felt wouldn’t sell. The band signs with Nonesuch and releases it to great acclaim the next year.

(&&*0 After the release of the Grammy-winning “A Ghost Is Born,” Wilco’s current lineup is solidified. The band releases the live album “Kicking Television” in 2005.

(&&-0 Wilco releases “Sky Blue Sky,” an understated and underrated disc of slow-tempo songs. (&&/0 The band collaborates with indie-rock chanteuse Fiest on “Wilco (The Album).” Bennett dies at his home in Illinois from an overdose of painkillers. R.G.

Getting major-label dumped turned out to be a blessing. The band signed to Nonesuch (ironically, a subsidiary of Warner) and finally released the experimental and atmospheric “Yankee Hotel Foxtrot” in 2002. The record was heralded as the band’s seminal masterpiece. On Nonesuch, Wilco settled down a bit. Tweedy went to rehab in 2004 to address a problem with prescription painkillers, and after 2007’s “Sky Blue Sky,” critics said he went soft. “I do the dishes, I mow the lawn,” Tweedy sang on a track called “Hate It Here.” Wilco took on the mantle of “dad rock.” But Tweedy, 44, does dad-liness with a dark edge. A line like, “It’s all right/ You won’t set the kids on fire/Oh, but I might,” on the new album’s first single, “I Might,” will ring true to even the most loving of parents. It’s a straightline evolution from the sentiment of “Via Chicago,” off of “Summerteeth”: “I dreamed about killing you again last night/And it felt all right to me.” “At heart,” Stirratt says, “I still think of him as the snarling bass player in Uncle Tupelo,” his and Tweedy’s preWilco band. “It’s an ungraceful thing, growing old with rock ’n’ roll,” he adds. “I don’t want to go gently into that good night. I really want to fight it.” RUDI GREENBERG (E XPRESS)

That culture is one of the most rewarding things about the band — the fact that people come together socially [to see us].” R.G.

8WYaijeho In real life, W.H. Auden and Benjamin Britten met in 1935 and were friends and collaborators for the next six years. Then Britten unfriended Auden, ending their working relationship. “The Habit of Art” is about “Caliban’s Day,” a play-in-progress in which Auden and Britten reunite to talk sex, taboos and the plight of the aging artist. There was no reunion in real life. (As far as anyone knows, at least.) F.Z.

‘The Habit of Art’ is a serious, silly and satirical take on the plight of aging artists Brilliance can be a burden. Even an artist who’s universally acclaimed may fear losing his touch in old age. That dread inspired 77-yearold playwright Alan Bennett’s “The Habit of Art,” which premiered in the U.S. at Studio Theatre this month. Now pay attention, because this is confusing: The satirical “Habit” is set during a present-day rehearsal for “Caliban’s Day,” an avantgarde work that imagines a meeting between two elderly former friends, composer Benjamin Britten and poet W.H. Auden, in 1972. Britten (played by fictional actor Henry, played by real actor Paxton Whitehead) is writing his last opera, “Death in Venice,” and wants to bounce ideas off Auden (actor

Fitz, as portrayed by Ted van Griethuysen). And Fitz is having trouble remembering his lines. “Caliban’s Day” veers wildly between the sublime and the silly (talking furniture spouting gloomy verse about living with Auden). Above all, it captures the decline of a genius who’s now a forgetful,

profane old man with a penchant for urinating in the sink. Bennett (best known stateside for the Tony Award-winning “The History Boys”) didn’t originally plan to frame the narrative with behind-the-scenes antics. By adding that extra layer, he gives both himself and the audience some dis-

tance, says director David Muse. “Bennett was experimenting with what he calls his ‘Late Style’ — the idea that celebrated artists, at the end of their careers, tend to stretch in ways that don’t always work,” says Muse. “The play-within -a-play structure allowed him to do that, to relax some of the rules

Cki[kc When planning your next trip to the zoo, be on the lookout for a potential flamingo dance party. Israeli artist Nira Pereg takes birdwatching to a strange new level with “67 Bows,” a film installation on view through Nov. 13 at the Hirshhorn. For the 2006 video, now screening in the museum’s Black Box theater, Pereg “choreographed” and filmed the movements of a group of flamingos at a zoo in Karlsruhe, Germany.

“It’s interesting, because they are a community, with no one leader,” Pereg says. “We go to zoos to observe animals and find comparisons to our own social situations. Flamingos are perfect for that. Birds don’t have the same individuality that mammals have, but I was looking for individuals within this group.” “67 Bows” features the birds doing choreography that Pereg (who is unseen in the film) “taught” them during her daily visits to the zoo. In the black-and-white looped video, the birds appear to be responding to the film’s nontraditional score, an intermittent cocking and firing of a gun that makes the flock bow in submission. (The score was added during post-production).

he would normally impose on himself when he writes a play, but at the same time have voices in the play to criticize how outrageous those ideas are, so he can get away with it.” “Habit” is optimistic in its assumption that viewers will even know who Auden and Britten are, much less anything about their lives.

birds’ synchronized movements are sometimes lulling, sometimes abrupt and disturbing — especially in context of the violence of the soundtrack. After awhile, the viewer begins to notice the birds who aren’t “dancing” along with the pack. This switch in the viewer’s perception is central to the piece’s message. So, how was Pereg able to draw out the rebel flamingos? “I could only find them by making all the birds do the same thing, then finding the few who didn’t do it. I did something with my body that made them do something with theirs — I can’t say much more than that; it’s the mystery of the piece.” JESSICA ROAKE

’90s sludge-rock band Kyuss returns to the road to take back the genre’s heavy crown Cki_Y There’s no shortage of bands cashing in on reunion nostalgia right now. But for Kyuss, whose heavy, sludgy, blues-inflected jams made them the lords of stoner rock in the early ’90s, cash has nothing to do with it. “If I was doing it for the money, I would’ve done it 15 years ago,” says lead singer John Garcia. “My background is in veterinary medicine and veterinary diagnostics — that’s much more lucrative than being a musician.” Kyuss first made its name playing “generator parties” in the California desert, with gas-powered

generators supplying electricity. The band achieved massive cult status in rock-nerd circles, drawing comparisons to metal godfathers Black Sabbath. After the band broke up in 1995, guitarist Josh Homme went on to form Queens of the Stone Age, a band that broke big during the post-grunge wave, and later Them Crooked Vultures, with Nirvana’s Dave Grohl and John Paul Jones of Led Zeppelin. Garcia went on to form the short-lived band Slo Burn, and toured Europe last year playing old Kyuss songs. At one show, original Kyuss members Brant Bjork and Nick Oliveri joined Garcia onstage for a few tunes, and the three decided to keep it going as Kyuss Lives! — without Homme. “Obviously, there’s a fourth of the band that’s not here,” Garcia says of Homme, who the band

around and say, ‘Hey, you don’t know what you have.’ To be able to play with such great musicians … that’s a huge gift.” But Garcia knows this is no time for navel-gazing. “We’re going to do another record,” he says. “We’re going to tour on that record, and then the future is wide open.” RYAN LIT TLE

A lot of journalists want there to be animosity between us, but it’s the opposite. He’s not in the band because he doesn’t want to be in the band. He’s got Queens, he’s

got Vultures, he’s got Eagles of Death Metal. He’s ever forward, never backward.” If anyone is angry at Garcia, it’s Garcia. “That really naive, stupid punk I was years ago, [I’d like to] look at that guy and slap him

New Jersey band Cymbals Eat Guitars rocks out with feeling Cki_Y To find his voice, Joseph D’Agostino had to lose it. A lot. The frontman for New Jersey indie-rockers Cymbals Eat Guitars routinely sang himself hoarse while touring behind the band’s 2009 debut, “Why There Are Mountains.” “I had some problems keeping up that live intensity because I wasn’t a very good singer in the traditional sense,” he says. “I didn’t have any idea how to project without hurting myself. It was a battle to get my voice back by sound check.”

Before the band recorded its sophomore album, “Lenses Alien,” D’Agostino took voice lessons and learned how to control his singing, which has only improved his performances. “It’s much easier now just to let it fly every night.” Voice is crucial to Cymbals Eat Guitars, whose long, complex songs are dense with evocative details and difficult emotions. In other words, there are a lot of words. D’Agostino is as ambitious in his songwriting as he is in his singing, holing himself up for months meticulously mapping out his compositions. He writes in spurts. “I’ll be struck by inspiration, and I’ll blurt out about a page’s worth of material,” he says. The hard part comes later, when he has to edit several

pages. “Over the course of many weeks, I’ll rearrange and juxtapose and place different pieces next to each other.” It can be a grueling process, but the results, as heard on “Lenses Alien,” are alternately unsettling and cathartic. “Sometimes there are so many different points of view and different images and memories that go into the lyrics, so it’s hard to say what any one song is about,” he admits. But singing them night after night gives him new insight into his lyrics. “When you have a lot of lines that are deeply emotional to you, they do reveal different shades of meaning. It’s exciting when that works, and I don’t ever get tired of singing these lyrics every night.” STEPHEN M. DEUSNER

‘Shut Up Little Man!’ reveals the sad faces of neighbors whose rants became legend IYh[[d Things went viral long before the Internet: “Saturday Night Live” catchphrases, for example, and probably the Gettysburg Address. But who could have predicted that, in the 1980s, recordings of two alcoholic roommates screaming at each other in their San Francisco apartment (recorded surreptitiously by their next-door neighbors) would wind up getting passed hand to hand through the world of underground comedy Bate for decades? That phenomenon, plus the modern-day adventures of the recorders (Eddie Lee Sausage and Mitch D) as they try to track down the only survivor of the series — a peripheral character, since the main duo, known only as Raymond and Peter, died long ago — is the subject of the documentary “Shut Up Little Man!,” out Friday. Director Matthew Bate brings the film from a simple study of a pop-culture sensation to a squirmy place, as we realize the men we’ve been laughing at were really just sad and ill.

MITCHELL DEPREY

Eddie Lee Sausage and Mitch D have a brainstorm: “Let’s secretly record our neighbors’ fights. After we get some more beer!”

to him, take a photo of him. But when you see where he lives, this kind of run-down hotel. … He’s a fat old man who’s spent a lot of time in jail. And I feel like I’m another exploitative spoke in the wheel.

Ç?jÊi gk_j[ W leo[kh_ij_Y j^_d] je b_ij[d je" j^_i WkZ_e f[[f^eb[$È — MAT THE W BATE, ON HIS DOCUMENTARY “SHUT UP LITTLE MAN!,” WHICH REVEALS THE FACES BEHIND POPULAR AUDIOTAPES OF TWO ROOMMATES’ HEATED ARGUMENTS.

Were you a fan of the tapes when they first came out?

I wasn’t necessarily a fan, but when I was turned on to it, I was immediately hooked. It’s quite a voyeuristic thing to listen to, this audio peephole. There are moments when the film gets uncomfortable to watch, one being when fans of the tapes see footage of Peter that was shot just before he died, and one of them says, “It’s not funny anymore.”

That was one of the turning points in the film — pulling the mask off,

I guess, showing the real human beings beneath these audios. It is quite shocking to these guys, people who have laughed along to these tapes. To see him is a revelation. His voice is no longer vital. He’s deflated, he’s taking drugs — he’s a sad old man. Did you ever feel uncomfortable as you tried to track down Tony, the one living person from the recordings?

Do you still listen to the tapes?

Not really. You do get sick of them after awhile. It’s not something you play at home on Sunday afternoon. To be honest, it still makes me laugh. I listen to it, and some of the things they say — it’s not like anything you’ve ever heard. I’m still walking that moral precipice of this thing. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (E XPRESS)

Eddie and Mitch were very keen to meet him. In a way, it was a great chance to see Eddie and Mitch talk

The 2001 musical seems headed for a happy ending, but then TB kills Nicole Kidman’s Satine. We’re guessing the crazy-tight corsets didn’t help with the whole “unable to breathe” thing.

+ Autumn in New York This 2000 film, saturated in treacle, uses a malignant tumor to cut the sweetness. May-December romances (in this case between Richard Gere and Winona Ryder) have enough problems. They had to throw in a neuroblastoma, too?

WRITTEN BY EXPRESS’ KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY

Having survived a 42-year hiatus since his “Sundance Kid” days, Butch Cassidy (Sam Shepard) lives on in “Blackthorn.”

It seems like there’s a new film festival every week, but that’s no reason to get tired of them! Festivals are a great way to see films that none of your friends have seen, so it’s easy to one-up them at dinner parties. The latest is the Latin American Film Festival, which starts Thursday at the AFI Silver and runs through Oct. 12. Now in its 22nd year, the festival presents films from Latin America, Spain and Portugal. And along with all of the artsy movies, there are a bunch of cool action films. Brazil’s “Elite Squad 2: The Enemy Within” was the biggest box office success in that country’s history; “Blackthorn” is a Western (in English, even) about Butch Cassidy’s final days (it turns out he didn’t die in that standoff); and “Miss Bala” is a thriller about a beauty queen caught in drug cartel violence. Take that, world peace. AFI Silver, 8633 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; through Oct. 12, $8$11; 301-495-6720, Afi.com/silver. (Silver Spring)

goingoutguide.com | M[[a[dZ FWii The Horses Play the Drums The Americana sound of Megafaun is all the more intriguing when you consider that its members used to play music with Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon in a band called DeYarmond Edison. After that group broke up, Vernon went off to record his brokenhearted-in-a-cabin solo album, and the rest of the band thought, “Let’s play some freak-folk!” Which is just what they do. Red Palace, 1210 H St. NE; Fri., 8:30 p.m., $12; 202-399-3201, Redpalacedc.com.

Aria Listening? Composer Giacomo Puccini’s “Tosca” is an opera about an opera singer, so when characters burst into song, it almost makes sense. Soprano Patricia Racette, left, plays Floria Tosca, who tries to save her lover’s life — but, oh, tragedy! We won’t give away the ending, because you can see a live broadcast (the actual stage performance is at the Kennedy Center) of the Washington National Opera’s production at the fourth annual Opera in the Outfield. Nationals Park, 1500 South Capitol St. SE; Thu., gates open at 5:30 p.m., free; 202-467-4600, Operaintheoutfield.org. (Navy Yard)

WEEKEND

Art Until the Metro Closes The name Art All Night is a tad misleading, but Art Until 3 a.m. lacks poetry. Saturday’s almost-all-night festival, modeled on the annual Paris arts extravaganza Nuit Blanche, spans 20 venues in Chinatown and Shaw. The Alliance Francaise’s Art Soiree at the old Wonder Bread factory looks promising, as does the “Got That Swing Flash Mob” at dance and fitness center Jordin’s 7 p.m. Saturday to 3 a.m. Sunday. See Artallnightdc. Paradise. com for the full slate of venues and events. Visit Francedc.org for the Alliance Francaise’s lineup.

Ragged Jams Going by albums alone, Fleet Foxes’ music seems like crowdpleasing but basic folk-rock — gentle, strummy, melodic, no frills. Unlike a lot of bands that get weird in the studio and complacent on the road, the Foxes (with guitarist Skyler Skjelset, left) save their loud experimenting for the concert stage, which means that the irritating people who always say, “Oh, my God, but you have to see them live” are right for once. Merriweather Post Pavilion, 10475 Little Patuxent Pkwy, Columbia, Md.; Fri., 6 p.m., $25$40; 410-715-5550, Merriweathermusic.com.

Superstar Redux If Edie Sedgwick seems different than she was back in the Warhol Factory days, it’s because the Edie seen here is not the ’60s underground film star but the stage persona of Justin Moyer, local music journalist and former member of dance-punk band El Guapo. Edie — who once described her band’s sound to SPIN as “Fela Kuti meets Screaming Jay Hawkins meets Ol’ Dirty Bastard” — has turned out weird-yet-danceable songs about celebrities and other nonsense for more than a decade. The band plays with the Austin, Texas-based Marriage, whose drummer, Mike Kanin, was previously in a loud, intense local Dischord outfit called Black Eyes. Comet Ping Pong, 5037 Connecticut Ave. NW; Sat., 10:30 p.m., $10; 202-364-0404. (Van Ness)

The Beneficiary: Heart of America The Backstory: With a focus on children’s literacy and volunteerism, this event — which honors three awardees known to lead and serve in their communities — raises money for the foundation’s Books for the Heart program. Last year, the organization was able to buy more than 12,000 books for students. According to Carlamae Chavez, Heart of America’s events and special projects manager, “The great thing about Sweet Charity is that the benefactors are right here in D.C.’s public schools. The money isn’t going very far.” Keeping It Fresh: Though the runway show of clothing made purely out of chocolate (see Ms. Sweet Charity — aka Kate Michael aka K Street Kate — in her edible fashion, left) is undoubtedly the highlight of this event, the organizers know you can consume only so much chocolate. To balance the sweet with savory, tasting stations will be open throughout the event from 6 to 8:30 p.m. Help Wanted: The organization has grown so much that there’s less of a need for outside volunteers. Culinary novices should sharpen their skills, though, as students have been paired with chefs to help out at the event in the past. Specifics: Spring 2012; for updates, follow on Twitter (@SweetCharity_11) or visit Heartofamerica.org.

The Beneficiary: Share Our Strength The Backstory: JWij[ e\ If you’re looking to spot J^[ DWj_ed some Food Network :$9$ (&'( stars and D.C.’s own top toques on your quest to help end childhood hunger, Taste of the Nation is for you. According to Emily Byram, Share Our Strength’s mid-Atlantic regional director for culinary events, the fundraiser is as gargantuan as it is today “because of the great chefs that have supported the event from the beginning.” And while the lineup for 2012’s bash isn’t etched in stone, “you can count on seeing a lot of the same chefs,” Byram says. Keeping It Fresh: “Last year we introduced some events leading up to the main event, like our banh mi throw-down at Ba Bay,” says Byram. “So if folks can’t go or prefer something smaller, there are several events leading up to Taste that will help to raise money.” Help Wanted: A volunteer recruitment happy hour (open to all) will be held at 6 p.m. Oct. 3 at PS 7’s. Specifics: April 2 at National Building Museum (401 F St. NW), 6-10 p.m., $150 (VIP admission) and 7-10 p.m., $95 (general admission); Strength.org/washington.

dining | M[[a[dZ FWii M O L É C U L E S A L O N Paige Gentry The Beneficiary: Washington Humane Society The Backstory: Local restaurateur Ellen fight for animal rights started 11 years ''j^ 7ddkWb Gray’s ago as she channel-surfed. “This show came Ik]Wh WdZ on called ‘Animal Cops,’ and I was thunder9^WcfW]d[ struck,” Gray says. “There were these guys jumping over fences and chasing down criminals to save these dogs. And they’re not even armed.” As she started crying, Gray had a bittersweet realization: “Thank God animals have some protection, but is it so bad that we need law enforcement?” Pangs of sympathy led Gray to create her annual Sugar and Champagne event, a night to honor Washington Humane Society’s humane law enforcement officers, animal control officers and humane educators, and to raise funds to help care for the mistreated pets these officers defend. Keeping It Fresh: “I watch for the newest champagne, sparkling wine and dessert trends, and make sure I ask the best chefs to participate,” Gray says. Help Wanted: Gray coordinates this labor of love pretty much on her own, but she welcomes volunteers to walk the dogs brought by attendees, just in case the pups get a little restless during the ceremony. Specifics: Feb. 1 at the Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center (1300 Pennsylvania Ave. NW); for updates on time, price and volunteer information, follow on Twitter (@SugarChampagne) or visit Washhumane.org.

(dZ 7ddkWb J^[ L_Y[i J^Wj CWZ[ L_h]_d_W The Beneficiary: Arcadia Center for Sustainable Food and Agriculture, and Woodlawn, a National Trust Historic Site The Backstory: Neighborhood Restaurant Group (which founded Arcadia and supports the center’s mission to promote sustainable agricultural practices through efforts that include this sinful soiree) kicked off this event in fall 2010, just a few weeks after forming Arcadia and entering into a partnership with the National Trust. “It was a celebration of crossing the finish line on all that work,” says NRG’s owner, Michael Babin. This year’s event, he says, “will be a celebration of Virginia’s vices — the cigars, bourbon and oysters — as well as a showcase of the absolute best products that Virginia’s producers and growers have to offer.” Keeping It Fresh: “We were just preparing the ground at Woodlawn last year for planting, and now we’ve been through a growing season, so some of the food will come right from the farm there.” Help Wanted: Volunteers are welcome to help during the event or in the days leading up to it. Specifics: Nov. 5 at Woodlawn (9000 Richmond Hwy, Alexandria), 4-8 p.m., $125; Woodlawn1805.org.

A psychiatrist and former radio show host said watching the famously transgendered Chaz Bono, above, on “Dancing With the Stars” (ABC, Mondays, 8 p.m. and Tuesdays, 9 p.m.) could influence kids to develop Gender Identity Disorder. The president of the American Psychiatric Association rebutted: “There is no evidence that viewing a television game show with a transgender contestant would induce Gender Identity Disorder in young 8o CWhY people.” I_bl[h But after watching the season premiere, I would say that easily influenced young people might be induced to do the following things: Wear a glittery bow tie and no shirt. Change name to “Metta World Peace.” Kick a male dance partner in the crotch. Invite a shirtless stranger into bed, then get up and dance the cha cha cha with him. Make leering remarks to a woman like, “I feel good standing next to you, Brooke.” Ask stupid questions of an Iraq War veteran like, “Eight years ago, when you were in Iraq, could you ever have believed you’d be dancing in a ballroom on TV?” Read Marc’s previous columns at: expressnightout.com/muse

‘Dancing’ Fools

Silver Spring native Carla Hall is one of five co-hosts on ABC’s new daytime talk show, “The Chew,” which premieres on Monday.

9WhbWÊi D[m :_i^

‘Top Chef’ alumna Carla Hall hits the big time on the new ABC talk show ‘The Chew’ J[b[l_i_ed

The only prop Carla Hall had for her initial audition last fall for “The Chew” was a newspaper. The producers of the forthcoming food-forward daytime TV show asked her to pick a story in the paper — any story — and just talk about it, as if she were making conversation at a party. Hall doesn’t recall the exact story, but she remembers that her improvised speech wandered fearlessly into Faulknerian territory. “Let’s say it was a story about

Ç?\ ? \W_b[Z" ? \W_b[Z$ ? mekbZ emd _j$ ?Êc b_a[" ÉO[W^" ? c[ii[Z kf$ Cel[ ed$Ê 7dZ j^WjÊi ^em ? b_l[ co b_\[" WdZ j^WjÊi m^o ? Ze j^[ É=ed 8[ Cec[dji$Ê È — CA R L A H A LL , ON A “CHEW” SEGMENT IN WHICH SHE TEACHES HOME COOKS HOW TO RECOVER FROM KITCHEN MISTAKES.

luggage. I said, ‘This would be a great story about just packing lunch,’” the former “Top Chef” contestant says. “I knew I didn’t get it, so I wasn’t even tripping. I just found [the audition] really hard.” Hall was right about her prospects. Her phone remained “Chew”free for months — until late into “Top Chef All-Stars” that spring. “One of the ABC executives saw [the show and said], ‘Oh, I love Carla! Can we see her?’” she recalls. Such was Carla Hall’s second chance at “The Chew,” which was all it took. She, the producers and the other hosts bonded faster than hot fish to a dirty grill. The chemistry was so good, in fact, that ABC scrapped its original concept for “The Chew” and hired

five (count ’em, five) co-hosts. In short order, the former Silver Spring caterer went from developing her line of designer cookies to mapping out a whole new professional life for herself. “The Chew,” which debuts Monday at 1 p.m. on ABC, hopes to do for food what network-mate “The View” did for current events: Give it a place in American homes that have been hopelessly hooked on the slow drip of daytime soaps. But if “The Chew” ever hopes to measure up to its older sibling “The View,” it must do so with a grab-bag of co-hosts who might be only nominally known outside their faithful foodie and lifestyle circles. Besides Hall, they are Iron Chef (and James Beard Award winner) Michael Symon, “The Dorm Room Diet” author (and daughter of Mehmet Oz of “The Dr. Oz Show”) Daphne Oz, “What Not to Wear” host Clinton Kelly and celebrity chef Mario Batali, possibly the most famous (and definitely the most orange) of the five. “The Chew” is expected to feature daily chats on current events (think “The View” with a foodie bent), cooking challenges, healthful-eating tips and simple Italian cooking demonstrations. The most original segment on the show might be something that Hall created. “Gon Be Moments” will be Hall’s attempt to keep it real on daytime TV: She wants to prove to home cooks that with a few learned tricks, they can recover from their mistakes in the kitchen. “I don’t take myself too seriously,” she says. “If I failed, I failed. I would own it. I’m, like, ‘Yeah, I messed up. Move on.’ And that’s how I live my life, and that’s why I do the ‘Gon Be Moments.’” TIM CARMAN (THE WASHINGTON POST )

ÉCkhckhÊ De Ceh[0 R.E.M. is calling it quits. “This wasn’t an easy decision; but all things must end, and we wanted to do it right, to do it our way.” singer Michael Stipe, shown, said in a statement on the band’s website. The group, made up of Stipe, guitarist Peter Buck and bassist Mike Mills, released its debut album, “Murmur,” in 1983 and went on to become chart-topping rockers with hits such as ‘’Losing My Religion” and “Everybody Hurts.” (AP)

Circumstance is a heady subject. Which factors of our lives do we control, and which are beyond our grasp? Why are some people born into difficult situations, while others never seem to encounter hardship? Iranian-American filmmaker Maryam Keshavarz, who directed the drama “Circumstance,” (playing now at Landmark’s E Street Cinema) doesn’t have any answers, but she has plenty of perspective from personal experience. “I grew up quite close to cousins [in Iran] who were almost exactly the same age,” says Keshavarz, who was raised in New York, New Jersey and Iran. “It was always in my mind, ‘Why have our lives turned out so differently?’” Keshavarz’s film depicts two 16-year-old girls who lead parallel — and then suddenly divergent — lives in contemporary Iran. For privileged Atafeh (Nikohl Boosheri) and orphaned Shireen (Sarah Kazemy), hip-hop is contraband and appear-

Sarah Kazemy, left, and Nikohl Boosheri resist strict social rules in “Circumstance.”

9e_dY_Z[djWb J_c_d] Though Iran’s 2009 Green Revolution took place while “Circumstance” was in pre-production and the Arab Spring didn’t occur until after filming wrapped, those events influenced the film’s subtly suspenseful mood, director Maryam Keshavarz says. In Mideast countries Keshavarz visited before filming, “there was this uneasy tension in the air,” Keshavarz says. She filmed the movie (surreptitiously, due to its controversial content) in Beirut, which she believes has a similar look and feel to Iran. K.A.

ing in public without head-coverings is forbidden. In private, however, the girls rebel — and act on their sexual impulses for each other — even as Atafeh’s brother Mehran (Reza Sixo Safai) joins the “morality police.” Atafeh and Shireen soon discover that even limited amounts of freedom, like circumstance, can change at a moment’s notice. In Keshavarz’s case, freedom slowly disintegrated in front of her eyes. The director realized as she was writing “Circumstance” that it would prevent her from ever traveling between the U.S. and Iran again. “It’s like losing half of me,” she says.

H[jeeb[Z WdZ H[WZo ‘Charlie’s Angels’ are back with a fresh backstory and setting H[Xeeji Miami is the new city of .0&& angels — at least the city of “Charlie’s Angels.” ABC is jumping into the reboot game with an updated version of the classic series that kicks off the network’s Thursday night prime-time lineup. Moving its setting and production from Los Angeles to South Florida, the new show gets a fresh start in a new city. The remake tries to distance itself from the camp of the 1970s version, striving to be a more grounded action series. The first episode begins with two 789

Angels — a former thief played by Rachael Taylor, left, and a disgraced police officer played by Annie Ilonzeh, right, — seeing the third member of their team killed during a mission. Their boss, Charlie Townsend, and his assistant, Bosley — played by Ramon Rodriguez

— persuade the survivors to recruit a new Angel, a street racer played by Minka Kelly, center. The original “Charlie’s Angels” was a cultural phenomenon when it debuted in 1976, making stars of Farrah Fawcett, Kate Jackson and Jaclyn Smith. But the new show starts fresh: These Angels aren’t saints. In the original, the women had all trained to become L.A. police officers, but sexism in the department had left them relegated to menial positions, so Charlie recruited them to be real detectives. In the new series, the Angels all have sketchy pasts. Charlie recruits them to give them a second chance, using the skills they developed as criminals to do good. “They’re sort of Angels with dirty faces,” says series cocreator Al Gough.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You can explore the options before you with more freedom than before. What comes to you as a result is an idea you can really develop. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) There’s no need to put things off. Focus on getting things done in the correct order. You’ll have time for yourself later on. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) An emotional situation may not be accessible to you just yet. Very soon, how you are feeling will take center stage. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You’ve been putting your own concerns on the back burner for too long. You’ll have the chance to bring them to the foreground. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) The plans you are making may have to be restructured somewhat to accommodate an unexpected development that takes you by surprise.

<EKH H79A JEJ7B Make a 2-7 letter word from the letters in each row. Add points of each word using scoring directions at right. 7-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 may have to say things two or three times before your meaning is fully understood. Be patient and control your temper. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You are likely to be quite surprised by someone else’s demonstration of independence — and his or her quickly developing abilities.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You may have the upper hand before you know it — thanks to your ability to adapt to changing circumstances.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) As hard as you are working on a certain project, you may find the experience rather disenchanting. Your priorities are shifting.
