A Rhode Island political candidate has asked people not to volunteer for or donate to his campaign.

British officials said a beluga whale spotted in the River Thames seems to be feeding properly and swimming strongly. The RSPCA said Wednesday the whale is “able to move fast in the water and dive.” Officials hope it will return to the open sea. The beluga attracted attention Tuesday when it surfaced in the Thames. The sighting happened in the Gravesend area, east of London. Belugas are typically found farther north in Arctic waters. (AP)
A man was booted from a domestic flight in India after attempting to get into the cockpit to charge his phone, The Guardian reported Wednesday.

page three Blame the mood on the gloom REGION There’s no hurricane or derecho — not even the hint of snow in the forecast — and yet Washington is in a weather emergency. By at least one metric, this month is the gloomiest September on record in the capital, and it is taking a subtle but substantial toll. The Capital Weather Gang reported Monday that cloudy skies have prevailed on 13 of the past 16 days, and “no, this is not normal.” Also not normal — the feeling of despair that has plagued many of us since August, that the sun might not come out in earnest ever again. Getting out of bed is a chore, and staying awake at work is borderline impossible. Psychologists and researchers say it’s not in your head — the weather is making you sad and lethargic at best, dejected and hopeless at worst. “We experience the world through our sensations, and the sun is one of the crucial and central elements to energize us,” said Ani Kalayjian, a psychologist who specializes in trauma

and an adjunct professor at Columbia University. “Any time the sun is compromised, we are compromised.” Hear that, Washington? We are compromised. The body’s circadian rhythm is almost entirely controlled by lightness and darkness. Weeks of overcast skies — during which even the fleeting hint of sunshine can feel like a cruel joke — alter the chemistry in the brain and dull the circadian rhythm. The result can be seasonal

affective disorder, or SAD, a combination of negative biological and mood-related changes that usually come on during fall and winter. Kalayjian said the disorder can come on any time there’s not enough sunshine, even a cloudy September. Without bright, daily sunlight, the brain continues to produce low levels of melatonin, the sleep hormone, during waking hours. If you rise in the morning feeling as if you could spend the entire day in bed, melatonin is probably to blame. On gray days, the brain also produces less serotonin, a hormone that contributes to the feeling of well-being. Also, a string of cloudy days prevents us from getting enough vitamin D — something more and more research suggests is critically important. Supplementing vitamin D is one of the easiest ways to combat the gloomy feelings, while taking melatonin before bed can help regulate circadian rhythms. However you decide to battle the September blues, know that there are potentially thousands of other Washingtonians who also did not want to get out of bed this morning. Plus, the sun has to come out again eventually. Right? ANGELA FRITZ (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Fines may hit new gear THE DISTRICT If you exceed a D.C. speed limit by more than 25 mph, it could cost you $500; roll through a rightturn-on-red and it could cost you $100; and if you fail to stop for a pedestrian in a crosswalk, you could get a whopping $500 ticket under increases set to be reviewed by the D.C. Council this fall. Those are among more than two dozen fines that are either the penalties for new offenses or substantial increases to existing penalties under a proposal by D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser, D, that establishes tougher penalties for traffic infractions to deter dangerous road behaviors — chiefly speeding. The tougher penalties are part of Bowser’s “Vision Zero” strategy to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries and bring those to zero by 2024. Bowser sent the package of new regulations — the result of nearly three years of discussions and public comment — to the council last week for approval before the end of the year. If no action is taken, the new rules will be deemed approved Dec. 7. The original plan, unveiled in December 2015, called for fines of up to $1,000 for drivers who exceed city speed limits by more than 25 mph. It was revised twice after intense criticism from motorists and their advocates, who derided the proposal as “arbitrary” and a “cash grab in the name of traffic safety.” This final proposal sets more modest increases in traffic fines but in some cases still more than doubles penalties. It also adds new and higher fines for bicyclists and pedestrians who violate traffic laws. Critics, including a lawmaker, say the city has not made a good case to support raising the fines. “It may look like a good and an

easy fix, but all it does is generate more money and not necessarily more safety,” D.C. Council member Mary M. Cheh, D-Ward 3, said Tuesday. Cheh, who chairs the council’s transportation committee, had asked the District Department of Transportation to provide support for the fines, saying the city can address safety concerns by making infrastructure changes and using other enforcement strategies. Some advocates for motorists remain concerned about the motivation for increasing the penalties. “This is about generating revenue under the patina of traffic safety,” said John B. Townsend II, a spokesman for AAA MidAtlantic. “There is not a shred of empirical evidence or research that proves that higher traffic fines deter bad driving behavior, and the District knows this and ignores the fact.” After several years of a decrease in traffic fatalities, the District has started to see a slight uptick in deaths, coinciding with an increase in walking and biking. Police data indicate that traffic fatalities dropped from 62 in 1995 to 49 in 2005 and 30 last year. Officials attribute the reduction to traffic laws and enforcement practices such as red-light and speed cameras. But the 30 fatalities recorded last year were up from 28 in 2016 and 26 in 2015. By Sept. 21, the city had recorded 26 fatalities, two more than at the same time last year, according to police. The proposed regulations are likely to go into effect in December unless the council files a disapproval resolution — with the support of the majority of its members. That action would require great effort to get enough votes against the regulations. LUZ LAZO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Seafood mogul pleads guilty in blue crab fraud The president of a Virginia seafood company pleaded guilty in Norfolk to netting millions by fraudulently labeling hundreds of thousands of pounds of recalled, old or returned foreign crabmeat as fresh Chesapeake blue crab, according to court records. James R. Casey, 74, the president of Casey’s Seafood Inc., pleaded guilty Wednesday. He faces up to five years in prison. Casey’s sold nearly 360,000 pounds from 2012 to 2015, but the fraud may have begun as early as 2010, according to court documents. The crab was worth $4.3 million wholesale and was sold in D.C., Maryland, Virginia and other states. (TWP) MANASSAS, VA.

Project aims to replace megashelter at former D.C. General hospital THE DISTRICT D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser on Wednesday celebrated the completion of the first of seven new shelters for homeless families, marking a major step in her ambitious and sometimes contentious plan to replace the rundown megashelter at the former D.C.
General hospital with a network of smaller lodgings scattered across the city. The mayor cut the ribbon on a sleek 45-unit shelter located off the Kennedy Street Northwest corridor in Ward 4, where the first families are set to move in as early as next week. New shelters in Wards 7 and 8 are expected to open later this fall after construction delays. Shelters in Wards 3, 5 and 6 are planned to open next summer,

First of seven new D.C. shelters opens D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser cut the ribbon Wednesday at a new shelter in NW.
while a building in Ward 1 is projected to be completed by 2020. “In a city as prosperous as ours, we can do better by our families who need a second housing opportunity,” Bowser said.

Wednesday’s pomp and circumstance and the building’s moniker — “The Kennedy” — resembled the unveiling of a new condominium project more than a homeless shelter.
Instead of metal detectors and uniformed security officers, residents will be greeted by a receptionist at a front desk. Each floor has a different bright color scheme. Rooms are equipped with armoires, refrigerators and, in some cases, private bathrooms with bathtubs — all amenities not available at D.C. General. “This is a home,” said Greer Gillis, director of the Department of General Services, which was in charge of building the new shelters. “We wanted to go for more of an apartment-like aesthetic.” The budget for the Ward 4 shelter was $14 million. Gillis said the final costs were still being calculated. FENIT NIRAPPIL (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump accuses China of meddling in midterms
Mosquitoes modified to self-destruct
UNITED NATIONS Taking center stage at the United Nations, President Trump on Wednesday accused China of trying to interfere in the upcoming U.S. congressional elections because it opposes his tough trade policies. The White House provided scant evidence of anything akin to the level of Russia’s meddling in the 2016 election. “They do not want me or us to win because I am the first president ever to challenge China on trade,” Trump said as he chaired the U.N. Security Council for the first time. He made his accusation against the backdrop of the special counsel’s investigation into Russian interference in the last election to help him. Asked later at news conference what evidence he had, Trump said there was “plenty” but didn’t immediately provide details, suggesting that some of the material was classified. “It will come out. I can’t tell you now,” he said. Instead, he zeroed in on China’s propaganda efforts to flood the heartland with ads and statements against Trump’s billions of dollars in punishing tariffs. Trump added: “I don’t like it when they attack our farmers and I don’t like it when they put

President Trump said he’s the first president to challenge China on trade.
A two-state solution Also at the United Nations on Wednesday, President Trump, for the first time since taking office, endorsed a two-state solution as the “best” way to resolve the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians as he met Wednesday at the U.N. with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Later, Trump told a news conference he would still support Israel and the Palestinians should they opt for a one-state solution. “I’m happy if they’re happy,” he said. (AP)
out false messages. But besides that, we learned that they are trying to meddle in our elections and we’re not going to let that happen just as we’re not going
to let that happen with Russia.” China’s foreign minister denied the accusation. “We do not and will not interfere in any countries’ domestic affairs,” said Foreign Minister Wang Yi. “We refuse to accept any unwarranted accusations against China, and we call on other countries to also observe the purposes of the U.N. charter and not interfere in other countries’ internal affairs.” Trump also praised his personal relationship with China’s Xi Jinping at the news conference and said he would call him today. He sidestepped a question in the news conference as to how he compared China’s meddling efforts with what Russia did.
In what is being touted as a possible breakthrough in the fight against malaria, scientists have wiped out an entire population of mosquitoes in a lab by using a type of genetic engineering called gene drive, NPR reports. Researchers introduced a sterilization mutation to mosquitoes, then released them into a population of unmodified mosquitoes. Within 11 generations, virtually all of the mosquitoes were wiped out, according to a report in Nature Biotechnology. More research is needed to determine if the technique could work in the wild to eradicate a malaria-spreading mosquito species. (EXPRESS)

The Fed, led by Chair Jerome Powell, above, lifted its short-term rate by a modest quarter-point to a range of 2 percent to 2.25 percent. During a news conference in New York, President Trump said he was “not happy” about the hikes because they could blunt his efforts to boost growth through tax cuts and deregulation. (AP) COURTS

nation+world President says he’ll sign spending bill despite its lack of funding for wall POLITICS P resident T rump pledged Wednesday that he would not allow the government to partially shut down next week, backing down from his demand that Congress appropriate billions of dollars for new construction of a wall along the Mexico border. Keeping the government open after Sunday would require Trump to sign a bipartisan
spending bill from Congress, something he had resisted committing to for weeks. But Wednesday, with anxiety building on Capitol Hill, he said that he planned to acquiesce. The bill would fund the military and some other government programs through September 2019 and other government operations through Dec. 7. The House passed the legislation Wednesday and sent it to Trump. “We’ll keep the government open. We’re going to keep the government open,” the president told reporters during a meeting

CDC estimates 80K in U.S. died of the flu last winter — the disease’s highest toll in at least four decades

The bill passed Wednesday punts the fight over border wall spending until after the midterm elections, keeping the Department of Homeland Security and some other agencies running at current spending levels through early December. It contains big spending increases for the Pentagon and the Health and Human Services department for 2019. The defense spending is a win for congressional Republicans.

Will Trump fire Rosenstein? POLITICS President Trump said Wednesday he would prefer to keep Rod Rosenstein as his deputy attorney general and that he might postpone a high-stakes meeting set for today to discuss the future of Rosenstein’s job. At a rare news conference Wednesday, Trump said he and Rosenstein already had a “good talk,” and he would “certainly prefer” keeping him in the No. 2 spot at the Justice Department. “My preference would be to keep him, and let him finish up,” Trump said. Rosenstein’s job has been in the balance since last week, after it was reported that former acting FBI Director Andrew McCabe memorialized meetings in which he claimed Rosenstein broached the idea of wiretapping the president, or using a constitutional amendment to drive him out as commander-in-chief. Rosenstein dismissed the news accounts as generally not true, and he told the White House that McCabe had exaggerated. The president suggested he was still comfortable with

Rod Rosenstein’s job has been in question since reports surfaced last week.
WIN MCNAMEE (GETTY IMAGES)
At presser, President says he would ‘prefer’ deputy AG stay in job
Rosenstein staying in the job in part because he was so skeptical of McCabe — a frequent target of Trump. “He said he never said it, he said he doesn’t believe it, he said he has a lot of respect for me,” Trump said of Rosenstein. “He’s very nice, and we’ll see.” Over the weekend, Rosenstein
offered to resign, and said in particular he was willing to step aside if Trump would not disparage him. On Monday, his departure seemed so certain that the Justice Department had lined up a succession plan. Matt Whitaker, Attorney General Jeff Sessions’ chief of staff, would take over for Rosenstein
— except in his supervision of the special counsel probe into Russian interference in the 2016 election, which would be led by Solicitor General Noel Francisco. None of it came to pass. Rosenstein went to the White House for a meeting with Trump’s chief of staff, and the White House soon announced he would be back on Thursday to meet with Trump himself. While it remains unclear what will happen, White House officials have said Trump likely won’t fire Rosenstein until after the midterm elections, and Justice Department officials have said they are skeptical Rosenstein will quit now. Trump said Wednesday he might call Rosenstein and ask to delay the meeting so it wouldn’t be “competing [with] and hurting” the hearing for Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Both Rosenstein and Sessions have been on thin ice for more than a year, as Trump has mused privately and publicly about firing both men. The president is upset that Sessions recused himself from what is now the special counsel investigation. In the press conference Wednesday, Trump again railed against that investigation as a “witch hunt” MATT ZAPOTOSKY AND DEVLIN BARRETT (THE WASHINGTON POST)

First lady to visit Ghana, Malawi, Kenya and Egypt
Court puts limits on use of biometric ID program
Melania Trump plans to emphasize child welfare in Ghana, Malawi, Kenya and Egypt in October on her first extended solo international mission.

India’s Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld the validity of a controversial government program to collect and store the biometric data of its billion-plus citizens. The court ruled that while the Aadhaar program has huge benefits in delivering welfare efficiently, biometric data can no longer be used by private entities such as banks or cellphone operators for authentication purposes.

Report: At least 382K have died in S. Sudan war SOUTH SUDAN Years of brutal civil war in South Sudan have left at least 382,000 people dead, according to an estimate in a new State Department-funded study that far surpasses an earlier figure issued by the United Nations. The findings of the study, conducted by the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine but commissioned by the U.S. Institute for Peace and the State Department, were released Wednesday. In March 2016, U.N. officials estimated that the conflict had killed about 50,000 people, and for years, a more accurate death count has been missing as a metric to measure the bloodshed. Experts say an accurate death toll can be a critical tool for policymakers. But counting the dead is a challenge in war zones, where many people are displaced and crucial data are hard to come by. The new estimate puts the death toll from the violence on par with the impact of conflicts such as the war in Syria, where upward of 510,000 people are believed to have died in a significantly larger population. Gordon Buay, deputy chief of mission at the South Sudanese Embassy in Washington, said the estimate is “not accurate” and that he would put the toll at fewer than 20,000. But Francesco Checchi, the lead epidemiologist who worked on the study, said his team’s estimate is conservative. SIOBHÁN O’GRADY (TWP)

Senate showdown today On eve of crucial hearing, a third woman accuses Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct Three women have accused Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh of sexual misconduct decades ago.
Kavanaugh questioner seen as tough, fair
Kavanaugh for today’s hearing in which he “categorically and unequivocally” denied Ford’s allegation. She has said he forced her into a room at a high school party, held her on a bed and tried removing her clothes as he muffled her mouth with his hands. Kavanaugh’s written testimony went a bit further than the description of his youthful behavior he gave in a Fox News Channel interview Monday, when he said “people” may have drunk too much at high school parties. “I drank beer with my friends, usually on weekends. Sometimes I had too many. In retrospect, I said and did things in high school that make me cringe now,” he said. Ford’s attorneys sent the Judiciary Committee a report on an Aug. 8 lie-detector test she took on her allegations that states her answers were “not indicative of deception.” ALAN FRAM, LISA MASCARO
SUPREME COURT Senate Republicans are bringing in a female prosecutor from Arizona with decades of experience prosecuting sex crimes to handle questioning about allegations of sexual assault against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, describing her as tough, experienced and objective. Rachel Mitchell, a Republican, was expected to question both Kavanaugh and the first of three woman who have accused him of sexual misconduct at today’s Senate Judiciary Committee hearing. Christine Blasey Ford’s allegation that Kavanaugh drunkenly assaulted her when they were teenagers has raised a political storm in the #MeToo era, and the GOP’s all-male presence on the panel made some want a woman to question Ford. Kavanaugh has denied all the accusations. Mitchell, above, works in the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office in Phoenix as the chief of the Special Victims Division. She supervises attorneys who handle cases involving child molestation, sexual assault and computer crimes against children in Arizona’s most populous county. Mitchell “has been recognized in the legal community for her experience and objectivity,” committee Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, said in a statement Tuesday. JACQUES

SALWAN GEORGES (THE WASHINGTON POST)
WASHINGTON On the eve of a showdown hearing, Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh and the senators who will judge him confronted a third set of lurid allegations Wednesday accusing him of sexual misconduct as a young man. Kavanaugh heatedly denied them all, while Democrats complained about a rush to approval and President Trump said the accusations added up to no more than “a con job.” Trump praised Kavanaugh anew at a news conference Wednesday, but in answer to a question he said he could consider changing his mind on the nomination if testimony today by Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford is totally convincing. Trump said of the allegations by her and others, “If I thought he was guilty of something like this ... yeah, sure.” As with the allegations by two previous accusers, the latest incidents are alleged to have occurred decades ago. In a sworn declaration, Julie Swetnick of Washington, D.C., said she witnessed Kavanaugh “consistently engage in excessive drinking and inappropriate contact of a sexual nature with women in the early 1980s.” Her attorney, Michael Avenatti, provided the declaration to the Senate Judiciary Committee. Republican leaders indicated they were still determined to have the committee vote on recommending Kavanaugh on Friday — after a hearing today at which both Kavanaugh and Ford are to testify. A roll call presumably would follow next week by the full Senate, where Republicans hold a scant 51-49 majority. Timing is critical. Kavanaugh would be likely to cement a conservative tilt to the Supreme Court for years to come, but that could be thrown into doubt if he cannot be confirmed before
November elections that might swing Senate control to the Democrats. Republicans, therefore, Swetnick are anxious to get to the climactic vote, while Democrats insist there should be a timeout to investigate the women’s allegations. There are scattered hints of GOP hesitancy. Kavanaugh supporter Roy Blunt, R-Mo., was asked as he left a closed-door luncheon whether GOP senators remained united behind Kavanaugh. His answer: Republicans are impressed by the judge and don’t know the accusers and “I think that goes to his advantage.” Susan Collins, R-Maine, a pivotal vote who hasn’t announced her position, said she was taking Swetnick’s claims seriously. Kavanaugh, the 53-year-old appeals court judge, released a statement denying the Swetnick
Trump: Claims against him affect his view President Trump acknowledged Wednesday that past accusations of sexual misconduct against him have influenced the way he views similar charges against other men, including his Supreme Court nominee. Wading into the #MeToo moment, Trump said he views such accusations “differently” because he’s “had a lot of false charges made against me.” While Trump pledged to listen to the testimony of Brett Kavanaugh’s accuser, he said he was skeptical of these types of accusations. “It’s happened to me many times,” he said, claiming he’d been accused — falsely — by “four or five women.” (AP)

THREE POINTERS
NFC’s elite meet in L.A.
Old-school approach
The Vikings and Rams — both popular picks to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl — meet in Los Angeles tonight (8:20, Fox, NFLN, Prime Video). Here are three things to watch in the game. GABE HIATT (EXPRESS)
NFL As his players trudged to the parking lot Monday afternoon, leaving for their bye week break, Redskins coach Jay Gruden fumbled to answer a question that lacks an easy response. What is your team’s identity? He paused. “Well, I know we are talented,” he said. The three games Washington has played so far are so distinctive that it’s hard to know exactly who these Redskins are or who they can become. There was the season-opening win at Arizona when the Redskins ran at will on the Cardinals and showcased a stifling defense. There was the listless loss to the Colts, who beat the Redskins with a penetrating defense and simple offensive pick plays they should have seen coming. Then there was a win over Green Bay, filled with big plays on offense and huge hits on defense that eventually wore down wounded star Aaron Rodgers.
“I think [finding an identity] takes time,” Gruden continued. “It’s about consistency and production and the identity will come. Obviously, what we want our identity to be is a physical football team on both sides of the ball, and a team that’s mentally tough.” Redskins coaches have talked about toughness since the summer, practicing in pads more than in the past and encouraging aggressive practices when players’ attention seemed to wane. In the past four years, Gruden has hired offensive line coach Bill Callahan and defensive line coach Jim Tomsula and promoted Greg Manusky to defensive coordinator with the intent of building rugged lines to run the ball and stop the run. The concept might sound oldfashioned in a more wide-open, pass-crazy NFL, but many of the players say they can see their biggest success coming when the lines play well. A defensive front that was worst in the league against the

run last season has now helped Redskins allow an average of just 278 total yards per game — second only to the Ravens (273). The staff has become so happy
with the play of the team’s most recent first-round picks, former Alabama defensive linemen Jonathan Allen and Daron Payne, that they played on more than 90 percent of the defensive snaps Sunday, and will probably do so for the rest of the season. On offense, wide receiver continues to be a concern — no wideout has caught more than nine passes. But the running game has excelled with Adrian Peterson, who has 236 yards rushing in three games and is on pace for 1,259. But the 20-yard performance against the Colts was an alarming total, and led to speculation that, at 33, he can’t be relied upon to be dominant every week.
3 Minnesota’s D-line Everson Griffen is out again with mental health issues. Without him last week, the Vikings allowed a Bills team missing LeSean McCoy to run for 128 yards and two TDs.

It features nine players who have combined to win 31 majors. Tiger Woods accounts for nearly half of that total, and he signaled his return last week by winning
the Tour Championship. Dustin Johnson is back at No. 1 in the world. One of only three Ryder Cup rookies on the team is Justin Thomas, who has already won a major and been ranked No. 1. Europe has won eight of the past 11 times in the biennial event and is always strong at home. Matches begin Friday at Le Golf National outside Paris.

there. It switches a lot — I’m definitely not the guy who has the go-to places where I have to go every day. I’m not that predictable. From there, you can go anywhere, [including] heading home for a nap if you’re tired. I spend a good amount of time in Georgetown, so I could go there for brunch. Peacock Cafe is a good spot.

“From every point of view, this production is a total success.” —Russia’s Nezavisimaya Gazeta
HOCKEY PLAYER
Tom Wilson’s route from his Clarendon home to Capital One Arena takes the 24-year-old down Arlington Boulevard, across the Theodore Roosevelt Bridge and along Constitution Avenue. While Wilson has embarked on that trip dozens of times since he debuted for the Washington Capitals in 2013, he has perceived it differently since June. Having paraded down Constitution with the Stanley Cup in tow, before hundreds of thousands of red-rocking fans, Wilson now sees that drive as a reminder of the ultimate goal. “That’s a special experience, for sure, that I’ll never forget,” the Toronto native says. With the Capitals commencing their title defense against the Boston Bruins on Wednesday at Capital One Arena, Wilson doesn’t see the need to go too wild for his D.C. dream day — appropriate enough for a Stanley Cup champion already living his dream.

I definitely always start with a coffee, usually at home — brew something up myself to kind of kick-start the day. I’ve gotten on to putting some cacao and collagen and all of that in it. Not quite the Bulletproof [coffee], but something like that. From there, usually
you’re driving right to the rink for practice at 9 or 10. On our off days, Northside Social is a good spot — a lot of guys will go there for some coffee or some breakfast. A lot of us do South Block after practice and go for a bowl
Our schedule is so crazy. It’s not like soccer or football, where you play 20 games — we play 82 games. So when I’m in D.C., a lot of the time I’m either playing that day or I’m playing the next day, so there’s not as many days where you have a lot of free time. But sports games are good, supporting the other teams — the Nationals or the Redskins or pretty often the Wizards, since we’re in season with them. If we have a day off that’s timed well with one of those games, we’ll definitely try to hit those up. Spending time with your teammates and doing stuff to get away from the rink is always nice. If there’s a good concert, a lot of guys have gone down to The Anthem on The Wharf or the 9:30 Club. With The Wharf, you can go do dinner right there. We’ve seen Kygo and The Lumineers at The Anthem. If it’s a game day, we might get dinner afterward somewhere in D.C. like RPM Italian. The Capital Grille is right there [near Capital One Arena], Joe’s Seafood, Prime Steak & Stone Crab is right there. If I’m in Arlington, I try to eat at home as much as possible. I’m pretty boring these days — in my single days I was out a lot more! (AS TOLD TO THOMAS FLOYD/ EXPRESS)

Bill Murray seems like a surprising guy. Has he ever done anything unexpected onstage? Bill is somebody who never does things twice the same. Although
It is unusual to have a famous comedian deadpanning poetry alongside a classical chamber trio. We want to surprise people. We have gotten the comment often that this show is entirely new and people really haven’t quite seen anything like it. As I understand it, a particularly dramatic moment happens when Bill reads a selection from “Adventures of Huckleberry Finn,” where Huck Finn grapples with his conscience. That’s the most important scene from “Huckleberry Finn,” and maybe the most important scene from American literature in the 19th century. The message is

DEN-MATE (RECORD RELEASE!) THIS/SIDE AFTER PARTY
In 2013, comedian Bill Murray was going through airport security when he saw a man carrying a very large box. “Are you going to be able to fit that thing in the overhead compartment?” he asked. The man, who happened to be world-renowned German cellist Jan Vogler, explained that his Stradivarius cello actually gets its own first-class seat. The conversation turned into a friendship that’s blossomed into an unlikely collaboration: a variety show, “New Worlds,” in which Murray sings show tunes and reads poems and excerpts from novels while accompanied by a classical chamber music trio consisting of Vogler, violinist Mira Wang and pianist Vanessa Perez. Vogler discussed the unlikely union ahead of the group’s Friday performance at Strathmore. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS) How did you choose the pieces for the performance? Our aim was to really make something completely new, but with elements taken from the greatest American music and literature of the last 250 years. We start with [Walt] Whitman’s “Song of the Open Road” and the Bach cello suite, because these pieces are contemplating life as a whole and reflecting on who we are on this planet. Then we go into James Fenimore Cooper, who describes untouched landscapes in New York. Schubert, in Europe, read Cooper and was a big nature admirer as well, so we put them together. We are touching on a lot of subjects, touching on all the important things about humanity and about our existence — but in an entertaining way.

been famous for being very empathetic and helping each other out. When you look at these texts, it’s surprising how relevant they are still today, and maybe they can help us reflect on America and imagine a promising future together.

Weird Washington Intrigue in D.C. is usually the stuff unearthed by special prosecutors or investigative reporters. But what about the kind of intrigue found within objects and places hidden in plain sight? Not at the Smithsonian — that would be too obvious. These are the kind of curiosities that connect you to a Washington of old, or a Washington of weird. Come on a scavenger hunt to find some of the city’s most unusual attractions.

The Barbie Pond 1454 Q St. NW
The Barbies are always having a party, either half-naked or elaborately clothed. In patriotic ball gowns, pilgrim costumes, shamrocks as fig leaves or maybe just bunny tails, they gather ’round the miniature pond in front of their dream house, sometimes engaging in some … rather grown-up scenarios. The Barbie Pond, as the campy neighborhood attraction is called, started in 2014 with just a few Barbies lounging, but now the home’s owner, who has turned his front garden into an Instagram sensation, has collected hundreds of dolls. The display changes every month, usually to reflect holidays, or — because it’s D.C. — political events. A recently popular tableau re-created Melania Trump’s “I Really Don’t Care, Do U?” jacket.

The bonsai that survived Hiroshima 3501 New York Ave. NE
One of the trees at the Arboretum’s National Bonsai and Penjing Museum stands small as a symbol of resilience. The bonsai, a Japanese white pine that’s nearly 400 years old, was grown within 2 miles of where U.S. forces dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima in 1945. It was gifted to the United States in 1975, but the museum’s curators didn’t realize the connection until 2001, when the grandsons of the man who donated the tree came to visit and told the story of how it had survived the bomb blast and radiation. It makes one think about how a miniature tree could survive the blast, and how it’s become a monument to the people who did not. M.J.

If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve wandered through the Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s oldest neighborhoods, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve probably noticed police and fire call boxes on street corners. Introduced in the 1860s, they found new life in 2000, when the city began a decade-long program that turned the rusting cast-iron hulks into canvases for hyperlocal art, filled with sculptures of long-gone buildings or portraits of notable residents. Last year, a new work appeared on Capitol Hill: The box itself had been painted purple, with gold highlights. Inside, a picture of the late Prince Rogers Nelson was surrounded by bouquets of blue and gold flowers. The artist is unknown but, in some ways, the anonymity makes it better. Instead of a government-approved box, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very personal gift from a neighbor to the city. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a tribute to Prince. And it is funky. F.H.

weekendpass The neon bathroom 1608 Wisconsin Ave. NW
A simple teal door leads to a neon fantasyland. The black-lit bathrooms at Oki Bowl DC, a cozy Georgetown ramen shop, are covered in toys and decorations scavenged by artist Wirat Assawamahasakda, who wanted the washrooms to mimic the look and energy of a nightclub. The first bathroom has an under-the-sea theme, complete with a cascading pirate ship and artificial jellyfish tank, while the second is fairy-tale focused and features a unicorn and rotating princess carriage. “People love to play with the art and engage with it,” Assawamahasakda says. Both lavatories used to feature working radios, but after several extended patron dance parties, the staff decided to cut the cord. Bathroom selfies, however, are highly encouraged. M.M.

D.C.’s most mysterious dinosaur fossils weren’t discovered by a paleontologist, but by workers laying a sewer pipe in 1898. Their excavation uncovered a section of dinosaur vertebra, which scientists determined was from a species dubbed Creosaurus potens — a 30-foot-long predator weighing more than 2 ½ tons. In 1990, local paleontologist Peter Kranz proposed a catchier name: Capitalsaurus. To mark the 100th anniversary of the fossil’s discovery, elementary school students petitioned the D.C. Council to name Capitalsaurus the city’s official dinosaur. The bone isn’t on display — it’s held at the National Museum of Natural History — but its legacy lives on the block where it was discovered: a fanciful sign depicting Capitalsaurus chasing a smaller dinosaur, and a street sign designating the stretch of F Street SE as Capitalsaurus Court.

Take a note from Sir Isaac Newton and cozy up under this apple tree, a descendant of the one whose fruit ostensibly clunked the famed English mathematician on the head and inspired him to develop the theory of gravity in 1687. A sapling of the hardwood, which was originally rooted near Newton’s childhood home, was nurtured by the U.S. Department of Agriculture and planted on the campus of the National Institute of Standards and Technology in 1957. Cared for by the park’s diplomatic neighbors, the tree twin continues to blossom and bear fruit in the summer. Don’t miss the bronze plaque, which states: “Science has its traditions as well as its frontiers.” M.M.

weekendpass The Big Chair Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue and V Street SE
Stroll down Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue SE far enough and you’ll soon be struck by a slightly incongruous sight. Measuring 19 ½ feet tall, the Big Chair, as it’s known, is a replica of the one constructed in 1959 as an advertisement for the local Curtis Brothers Furniture Co. In 2005, the 4,600-pound original chair was dismantled — built out of mahogany, it had begun to rot after decades of exposure to the elements. The replica, made of aluminum, was unveiled the next year. At the ceremony, Charles Curtis, who first proposed the Big Chair promotion, spoke about how his creation had survived the 1968 riots and said the new version “will stay there for 100 years.” Today, it stands as a neighborhood rallying point and monument to Anacostia’s history.

The doodle that went viral A soaring Mexican mural

Before there were memes, there was Kilroy. The ubiquitous war doodle — a baldheaded, long-nosed man peering over a wall — was often scrawled on ships, tanks and walls by American GIs during World War II. The scribble, usually accompanied by the phrase “Kilroy was here,” served as a morale booster to troops overseas when servicemen reached a new location and discovered that American soldiers had already passed through. In a wink to its origin story, which has long been shrouded in mystery, the National Park Service hid the doodle in two places at the Mall’s World War II Memorial. See if you can spot them, among the pillars and throngs of tourists. M.M.
Aztecs and Quetzalcoatl, Columbus and Hidalgo: Climb the stairs in the Mexican Cultural Institute and you’ll find yourself looking at the history of a country as you never have before. Painted by Mexican artist Roberto Cueva del Rio over eight years beginning in 1933, the dazzling mural winds its way up the institute’s staircase, stretching three stories tall. The panels exemplify the tradition of Mexican muralism and depict moments in the country’s history, from its settlement by the Aztecs, to the landing of Christopher Columbus, to the dawn of the nation’s transition from agrarianism to industry. Cueva del Rio was only 23 when he began the work, at the recommendation of renowned painter Diego Rivera, in what was then the city’s site of the Mexican Embassy. This is one history lesson that requires you to watch your step. M.G.

SADIE DINGFELDER | THE STAYCATIONER
If I were Christian, I think I’d be an Episcopalian. I’m basing this on a T-shirt I found in the Washington National Cathedral’s gift shop last week, one that listed many convincing reasons, including “All of the pageantry, none of the guilt.” Another reason, not listed on the shirt, is that Episcopalians can attend services at the National Cathedral — one of the most gorgeous buildings in the D.C. area. I’d been to the cathedral for concerts, but before last week I’d never taken a tour. The $12 fee seems fair for a place that runs entirely on donations and volunteers. One such volunteer, a woman in a purple robe, called my tour group to order. “Welcome to your church. The cathedral was started by some men who lived here in town, Washington, in 1880,” she said. Before then, “there was no place in the nation’s capital for the whole country to come together to celebrate anything. There was no place in the nation’s capital where the whole country can come together to cry for a president’s death. We needed a cathedral for the whole country.” Our guide drew our attention to the flying buttresses and pointed arches, which mark the cathedral’s architecture
as Gothic. That struck me as odd. Why would cathedral designers at the turn of the 20th century hew to a 14th-century style? I asked the guide. “We thought it would be good for your church,” she responded. That didn’t really answer my question, but I can’t quibble with their decision. The National Cathedral — like all Gothic cathedrals — was designed to overwhelm and awe. The pointed arches draw the eye up toward the heavens, while stained-glass windows bathe you in glorious multicolored light. Intricate carvings cover nearly every surface — some so high up, you can’t appreciate them without binoculars. It’s way too much to take in, and that’s the point. Gothic architecture reinforces the idea that there are worlds beyond comprehension. Given this backdrop, I think we were all surprised when our tour guide pointed out a stained-glass window devoted to science and technology. “That’s the Space Window,” she said of the deep-blue piece — added in the 1970s — with spheres representing the planets, and a line suggesting the trajectory of a spacecraft. “The astronauts liked the design, but they said, ‘You know, something’s missing.’ So they gave us a piece of moon rock — you can see it up at the top in

the red sphere. Your piece of moon rock. Your cathedral.” Our guide had me so convinced the National Cathedral was my cathedral, I asked if there might be Jewish services on occasion. “No, not really,” she said. “The Muslims have tried to have prayers in here, but everywhere you turn there is a Christian symbol. So it’s a little difficult.” Throughout the cathedral, you can find two stories, our guide continued. One is a religious story — the Old Testament and the New — and the other is the story of America. Our next stop, the War Memorial Chapel, illustrated that fascinating double narrative. “It honors those who died for their beliefs: belief in faith, belief in freedom,” our guide said of the chapel. The stained-glass window above the altar depicts biblical scenes alongside ones inspired by American history, including Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt, Abraham
Pro tip: Come for a tour, stay for the music. Lincoln emancipating the slaves and the D-Day invasion of World War II. “The latest addition to the chapel is a small stone cross that was cut from the Pentagon” after the 9/11 attacks, she said. “They carved it and sent it here because they figured that’s where it belongs.” Our guide then led us to a narrow space between the high altar and the choir seating area. “There’s our organist,” the guide said as a man quickly disappeared behind wood panels. “Our organ has 10,600 pipes. One of them is 32 feet long. It lies down beneath the floor and it makes a very deep rumble.” We didn’t get to hear the organ, but I’ve gone to organ concerts at the cathedral before, and I strongly recommend
checking one out — they’re held most Sundays at 5:15 p.m. ($10 suggested donation). Our guide noted that Mondays through Thursdays at 5:30 p.m., the boys or girls choirs close out the day with a short evensong program, and attending those concerts is free. Please don’t tell my rabbi, but I’ve actually sung in the National Cathedral before — at a singalong hosted by the Cathedral Choral Society — and it was one of the most spiritual experiences of my life. We were performing Mozart’s Requiem, and as the last light of the day flickered through the rose window, I was overwhelmed by the beauty, the mystery and the majesty of creation. I also had a more mundane realization: Immersive art is all the rage these days, but you don’t have to stand in line at the next big Hirshhorn show to experience a large-scale, sitespecific installation. Just visit “your cathedral” — ideally when there’s music inside.

A cut, a shave, a scheme, a prank...all in a dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work! Rosina, the ward of Dr. Bartolo, has attracted the attention of Count Almaviva. Disguised as a poor student, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lindoro,â&#x20AC;? the Count professes his love. Bartolo, eager to keep Rosina for himself, attempts to keep the would-be lovers apart with the help of Basilio, Rosinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s scheming music teacher. However, they are no match for Figaro, a jack-of-all-trades who is employed by the Count to help his cause.

Make no mistake: Identities will be mistaken in “The Comedy of Errors” at the Shakespeare Theatre.
Kicking, fighting and other hilarious stuff Choreography keeps ‘The Comedy of Errors’ relatively pain-free STAGE In the theater world, the dividing line between comedy and drama is best illustrated by a kick in the nuts. “When a man is kicked in the groin in a realistic fight [onstage], the man is going to buckle over. There may be a low moan or no sound at all because the pain is so, so intense,” says David Leong, fight choreographer for The Shakespeare Theatre Company’s current production of “The Comedy of Errors.” “When someone is kicked and the man shrieks in a really high pitch, the reason we laugh is because of the sound. We know that the person isn’t really hurt.” No nuts get kicked in Shakespeare’s play, but there is enough action to keep Leong on his toes. The story follows two
sets of twins and their respective slaves, who are also twins, as they end up in the city of Ephesus on the Leong same day. It all adds up to a lot of mistaken identities, frantic running around and slapstick humor. It’s Leong’s job to make sure that all of the physical conflict of the play conveys comedy, not pain. And that starts with the reason a character is smacking someone in the first place. “In a real fight, my intention is to hurt you,” Leong says. “In a comedy fight, I’m only beating you because I need you to do something for me.” While staged dramatic and comedic fights do share some of the same physical language — like a kick in the family jewels — “there are a different set of moves” for comedy, Leong says. “What’s funnier to watch: someone being kicked in the ass or someone
being kicked in the face?” And not just any kick in the ass will do. To be funny, it has to be delivered with precision. “Comedy fights are way, way harder than other fights,” says Leong, who also choreographed the company’s summer staging of “Romeo and Juliet.” “They take more rehearsal because if the timing is off literally by a millisecond, it’s not going to be funny.” Depending on how it’s delivered, a swift kick to the crotch can prompt a big laugh from the audience, or it might have all the men in the theater doubling over in sympathetic pain. One thing is certain, though: Whether the onstage fight is for shocks or for laughs, the gentleman on the receiving end should definitely wear a cup. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

One in Every Crowd
Leon Bridges: When Leon Bridges emerged in 2015 with the album (and song) “Coming Home,” his music felt like time-traveling back to the ’60s, when soul music had its heyday. For his follow-up, May’s “Good Thing,” Bridges ditches the retro nature of “Coming Home” — somewhat — with slow jams that feel more at place in the ’90s, along with some more upbeat numbers that fit nicely into today’s modern pop landscape. Bridges headlines The Anthem on Wednesday, with funky trio Khruangbin opening.

TV REVIEW Does the unseen hand that guides the universe also keep a firm grip on the remote control? How else to explain “Murphy Brown’s” boisterous and welcome return to TV on the very same day a woman is scheduled to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee and recount how an ultraconservative Supreme Court nominee allegedly assaulted her? No one could have possibly planned this convergence of pop culture, feminism and the fate of the judicial branch. Murphy’s comeback is as reassuring and entertaining as it is timely. The series, which returns Thursday to CBS with great (and, yes, deserved) anticipation, ably harnesses the feminist anger and modern media frustrations of both its lead character and its creator, Diane English, resulting in a sitcom that’s about as blunt and politically fired up as anything we’ve seen since … well, since “Murphy Brown” ended its initial 10-season run in 1998. “Murphy” succeeds simply by being more of what it originally was: fast, sharp and unwaveringly pointed. Candice Bergen plays a noticeably older though no less
DAVID GIESBRECHT (AP)
Candice Bergen’s fiery newswoman proves to be a sight for sore eyes
Take a break from the grind of keeping tabs on cable news and follow along with “Murphy Brown,” a CBS revival about, well, making cable news.
feisty Murphy — so tormented by current politics that she agrees to come back to TV, this time as the host of a cable news show called “Murphy in the Morning.” Though their punchlines can often be spotted long before arrival, Bergen and her returning co-stars (Joe Regalbuto, Faith Ford and Grant Shaud) haven’t lost much in terms of timing and fleetness. In the weeks to come, Murphy will sneak into the White House briefing room to lecture Sarah Huckabee Sanders on withholding information from the people, which Sanders (in a form cobbled together from actual news footage) deems an “inappropriate” outburst. “Here’s my question,” Murphy
says. “Why do you lie?” Mic duly dropped, Murphy implores the other reporters to get up and walk out with her in protest. None of them does, and it’s a welcome sign that English, Bergen and company still grasp the satirical line between scathing and saturating. Murphy, after all, is trying to have things both ways — championing journalistic values while descending into diatribes that more or less echo last night’s MSNBC lineup. One way “Murphy Brown” worked then and still works now is when Murphy experiences those moments where she knows she’s right, but also discovers she’s got an important part of the story wrong.

‘Tha Carter V’ is finally arriving Lil Wayne said Tuesday that “Tha Carter V,” his long-awaited 12th album, will be released Friday. First announced in 2012, the record spent years in limbo because of a recently resolved dispute between Lil Wayne and Cash Money Records. “This is four, five, six years of work that you’ll be listening to,” the rapper said in his announcement video.

“My thought is, Chloe needs to come back to the playoff games and cheer her heart out for our team! Don’t change Chloe! You’re a true Astros fan!” @RODG_20, sending his support to an
8-year-old Houston Astros fan named Chloe, after a woman yelled “Enough!” at her while she was cheering. The clip shows Chloe, who has disruptive mood dysregulation disorder — which affects how she interprets emotions — quickly lapse into silence. Astros players tweeted Chloe their support and offered her tickets to upcoming games.
“I don’t think Meghan Markle sees herself as better than anyone else. She knows that she and Prince Harry are blessed to have found each other. I’m proud of her.” @OWENSMARIAN7, reacting to video of Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, arriving at the Royal Academy of Arts for her first solo royal outing. After exiting the vehicle, the Duchess pushes her car door closed as she walks inside. Since the mundane duty is usually left to a security officer, people were surprised to see a royal do so on her own. Many pointed out that it was still probably second nature to the American-born former actress.

“Her pose told me to buy tickets and the soundtrack to ‘A Star Is Born.’” @GAGAMONSTER96, tweeting about
a viral video from the Hollywood premiere of the musician and actress’ new movie, “A Star Is Born.” After answering one final question from an interviewer, Lady Gaga smoothly goes from hugging the correspondent to turning around and posing for a nearby photographer. The entire exchange lasted exactly three seconds. Fans went appropriately gaga over the clip, and specifically the skill it took to strike a perfect pose in such little time. “A Star Is Born” comes out on Oct. 5.

“1,600 men signed a full-page New York Times ad today in support of Christine Blasey Ford. This is phenomenal.” @MSSCOMMUNICAT, tweeting about the powerful ad, which is similar to the one signed by 1,600 African-American women in 1991 to express support for Anita Hill. California professor Christine Blasey Ford has alleged that Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh sexually assaulted her in high school, and is testifying today in front of the Senate. The Phenomenal Women Action Campaign funded the ad.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may have to report on a recent experience. Be sure that you are honest, and resist the temptation to elaborate. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You can come up with one or two ideas today that will really get heads spinning. What are you up to? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You may have trouble sticking with a certain task until it is completed. Pace yourself, and don’t be tempted to skip any steps. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You don’t want to reveal too much at any one time today; some of what you have to say can be simplified. Trust in traditional methods. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You may be surprised to learn what someone has been doing during your time away. Now you must get back in the saddle — fast.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Take care that your complaints aren’t merely interpreted as “crabbing” today. You have a legitimate gripe that deserves to be heard.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Focus
on the things that must get done right away; the rest will wait until you are free to give them what attention you can.
TODAY: The front stalls to our south, giving us a chance of light showers during the morning. We could then see steadier rain develop by mid- to late afternoon, with overcast skies and an onshore breeze holding temperatures in the 60s. Rain seems likely during the evening into the overnight.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’re likely to receive a great deal of valuable information that you can put to use almost immediately. CANCER (June 21-July 22) A minor shock has you off balance throughout much of the day — until someone you know is able to get you back on track.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Someone
who has figured prominently in your affairs in the past will resurface today, and possibly make an unusual demand. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You will want to get routine tasks out of the way first today, before tending to those issues that will likely take up the rest of the day.

“I guess I ate too many Hot Cheetos, and it ripped something in my stomach open a little bit.”
Shia LaBeouf and wife Mia Goth, left, are divorcing after two years of marriage, according to People. “The separation is amicable and all details pertaining to the divorce proceedings will remain private,” LaBeouf’s rep told People. The announcement comes shortly after The Daily Mail published photos of LaBeouf leaving the home of British musician FKA twigs. A source told the outlet that the pair, who met this year while filming the movie “Honey Boy,” are dating. FKA twigs was previously engaged to actor Robert Pattinson before they split last year.

Aguilera told the audience that she had a “really special surprise” before inviting Ben Lear and Mike Kontomanolis to the stage. After Lear thanked the singer for “being an inspiration,” he got down on one knee and proposed. Kontomanolis said “Yes” as the crowd cheered. (EXPRESS)
