Will art stand tall on Mall? Activists seek permit to put nude statue on temporary display
GALEN OAKES
CULTURE A 45-foot-tall statue of a nude woman weighing 16,000 pounds will greet visitors on the Mall for more than four months if activists have their way. They say the steel statue, depicting a strong woman, would stand in a yoga mountain pose near the Washington Monument, facing the White House. The massive artwork would be the main attraction at the annual Catharsis on the Mall on Nov. 10-12 — a festival in the nation’s capital dubbed a “Burning Man” for Washington. Burning Man, an annual desert festival outside Reno, Nev., is known for building a hippie-like community that promotes art, self-expression and inclusiveness. Mike Litterst, a spokesman for the National Park Service, said the agency is reviewing permits for the statue, adding that it’s “plausible” that the agency would allow such a large and striking sculpture to remain through the winter months. Catharsis organizers want the statue in place

through March. “As with all First Amendment activities, our review is to ensure public safety and that park resources and values are protected; we do not take into consideration content of the message presented,” Litterst wrote in an email. The statue, R-Evolution by Marco Cochrane, depicts singer and dancer Deja Solis with short, dark hair. Cochrane said Solis posed for the statue and chose how her sculpted self would be
“We need to show women just being in their bodies, just being humans, as an antidote of the constant sexualization of the woman’s body.” MARCO COCHRANE, the artist who created the R-Evolution statue, explaining the message behind it
positioned. Cochrane designed the statue for Burning Man in 2015. Organizers are raising upward of $100,000 to transport the sculpture and have a team of workers and engineers assemble and inspect it. As of Wednesday afternoon, nearly 300 people had contributed to a crowdfunding effort on generosity.com, raising almost $33,000. Cochrane’s partner and professional collaborator, Julia Whitelaw, said the statue isn’t sexually provocative, although she understands people might view it that way. She said she hopes people challenge themselves to look past the statue’s physical body and “see her humanity first.” “We are asking the question: What would the world be like if women were safe?” Whitelaw said. “We are asking people to imagine that.” Last year, the Park Service denied Catharsis organizers a permit to light a 30-foot-tall wooden structure on fire as part of a demonstration calling for more funding for veterans and research for post-traumatic stress disorder.

Northam holds clear lead in new poll VIRGINIA A relatively unified party base gives Democrat Ralph Northam a clear lead over Republican Ed Gillespie heading into the final month of the Virginia governor’s race, according to a new Washington Post-Schar School poll. Northam leads Gillespie by 53 percent to 40 percent among likely voters, with 4 percent supporting Libertarian Cliff Hyra. The advantage is similar to a PostSchar School poll this spring but larger than in other public polls of likely voters released over the past month, most of which found Northam up by single digits. But the race is still fluid, with a

sizable number of likely voters — one in four — saying they could change their mind before Nov. 7. “There’s a lack of intensity right now,” said Mark Rozell, dean of the Schar School of Policy and Government at George Mason University, which cosponsored the survey. “Many
fewer people than typically at this stage are paying close attention and the candidates at this point have really not excited the electorate. … A lot can change in the next month. If I were the Northam campaign, I would not feel too comfortable right now.” Gillespie could close the gap
by consolidating support among Republicans, who historically have been more apt than Democrats to vote in off-year elections. Confederate monuments and illegal immigration have played prominently during the campaign, but voters say they care more about health care, the economy and education. While the governor’s race — the nation’s only competitive statewide contest this year — is seen nationally as an important test of electoral politics in the Donald Trump era, the average Virginian seems uninspired. Fewer than 6 in 10 registered voters, 58 percent, say they are following the race closely — 10 percentage points lower than a similar point in the 2013 gubernatorial race. GREGORY S.

COLLEGE PARK, MD. A charitable foundation established by a construction magnate is giving the University of Maryland its largest private donation by far, more than $200 million to expand scholarships, endow new faculty positions and make other investments in buildings and programs at the flagship state school in College Park. The $219 million gift from the A. James & Alice B. Clark Foundation, announced Wednesday, shatters the previous record for a single donation to U-Md. — $31 million — set three years ago. It is also among the most significant gifts to any public university in the country, coming at a time when many schools have ramped up fundraising to offset declines in state support. Euphoric U-Md. officials said the gift will enhance the 39,000-student university’s
strength in engineering and fields such as neuroscience and cybersecurity. They also call it a pivotal development for financial aid because a portion of the gift will be set aside to match other donations to a need-based scholarship fund that aims to help hundreds of students annually from all majors. “It will transform access and affordability at the University of Maryland,” said U-Md. President Wallace D. Loh. A. James Clark, who died in March 2015, graduated from U-Md. in 1950 with a civil engineering degree and became a major figure in construction and development in the Washington region and around the country. Among his projects, according to the university, were Nationals Park, numerous Metro stations and the National Museum of the American Indian. NICK ANDERSON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Postal worker sentenced in marijuana distribution ring
Protest organizer released after arrest in perjury case
A former Fairfax County parks employee was found not guilty of murder Wednesday in the stabbing death of a caterer following a dispute that spiraled out of control at an August 2016 wedding. A Fairfax County jury returned the verdict for Kempton A. Bonds, 20, of Clifton, Va., after deliberating for a little over three hours. Bonds was overseeing the wedding at a Chantilly park, while Tyonne Johns, 35, was catering it. Afterward, the pair and members of the wedding party got into an argument over chairs while cleaning up. It ended with Bonds stabbing Johns with a 3-inch pocket knife.
Some postal workers were hauling a lot more than mail on their appointed rounds — they were delivering hundreds of pounds of marijuana in a coordinated operation.

Deenvaughn Rowe, 48, was convicted at trial in July of directing a bribery and drug arrangement in which subordinates took hundreds of pounds of marijuana and hand-delivered the boxes — while in uniform — to street-level drug dealers.

Kessler planned the Aug. 12 rally in Charlottesville, Va. A woman was killed when a car plowed into a group of people at the rally, where white nationalists and counter-protesters clashed. The perjury charge stems from a sworn statement Kessler made in January, alleging he was punched while gathering signatures for a petition to remove a city councilman. Kessler later pleaded guilty to assaulting the man he accused. (AP)

Two girls wear flags — a Spanish flag, right, and a Catalan flag — as they walk down a street Tuesday in Barcelona.
Catalan leaders weigh if, when to break away Other politicians urge further bargaining to avoid secession crisis BARCELONA, SPAIN Catalonia’s regional government on Wednesday mulled when to declare the region’s independence from Spain, with some lawmakers saying it would happen Monday. Spanish stocks sank as the country grappled with its most serious national crisis in decades. Catalan president Carles Puigdemont again urged the government to accept mediation in the political deadlock between Spain’s authorities and the leaders of the wealthy northeastern region of about 7.5 million. The years-long tension peaked Sunday, when police used force
to disperse voters in a referendum that Spain’s Constitutional Court had ordered shelved while assessing its legality. Politicians in other parts of Spain and a handful of civil groups have offered to try to bridge the divide between the two sides, but Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy says no dialogue can take place outside of the country’s constitution, which doesn’t include provisions for a region to secede. “Mr. Puigdemont has been outside of the law for way too long,” Rajoy’s deputy, Soraya Saenz de Santamaria, said, responding to the remarks Puigdemont made Wednesday. European leaders have sided with Spain and, amid fears that Catalonia’s secession bid could find echoes elsewhere on the
continent, the European Union has so far refused to step in. European Commission Vice President Frans Timmermans stressed the need for Madrid and Catalonia to talk, but said there is a “general consensus that [the] regional government of Catalonia has chosen to ignore the law when organizing the referendum.” Puigdemont will address the regional parliament Monday to review the disputed vote — a session that his parliamentary supporters in the radical CUP group say they will consider the independence declaration. “We held the referendum amid unprecedented repression and in the following days we will show our best face to apply the results of the referendum,” Puigdemont said.

FDA doesn’t share the love with bakery The ingredient list for the granola produced by Nashoba Brook Bakery of Concord, Mass., was routine, save for one ingredient: love. That was a nod to the passion bakers put into their product and a wink to fans of the snack. But the Food and Drug Administration didn’t see it that way. It published a warning letter to the bakery Tuesday, telling it to edit its list of ingredients. Nashoba CEO John Gates said the letter “just felt so George Orwell.” But the FDA also had more run-ofthe-mill concerns. It noted many code violations at the bakery, such as an inch-long “crawling insect” in the pastry area, other sanitary issues and mislabeled products. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Tillerson: I’ve never thought about quitting Secretary of State Rex Tillerson insisted Wednesday that he is not planning to quit, rebutting persistent reports of policy disputes and personal clashes with the White House. “I have never considered leaving this post,” he said at a hastily called news conference. Tillerson did not directly respond to an NBC News report earlier Wednesday that he had referred to President Trump as a “moron” after a July 20 meeting with other members of the administration at the Pentagon. “I’m not going to deal with petty stuff like that,” Tillerson said. His spokeswoman later denied he’d used such language. Tillerson flatly denied another part of the NBC report: that Vice President Pence had intervened to talk him out of leaving. Trump and Tillerson have sometimes been at odds on policy. This weekend, Trump contradicted Tillerson on diplomatic relations with North Korea and its leader. Trump tweeted that the secretary of state was “wasting his time trying to negotiate with Little Rocket Man” — his nickname for North Korea’s Kim Jong Un. After Tillerson’s appearance Wednesday, Trump responded on Twitter: “The @NBCNews story has just been totally refuted by Sec. Tillerson and @VP Pence. It is #FakeNews. They should issue an apology to AMERICA!” ANNE GEARAN AND CAROL MORELLO

U.S. military speeds up relief Troops in Puerto Rico will establish hospitals; more personnel on way SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO The top U.S. general overseeing hurricane relief in Puerto Rico said the military will establish numerous hospitals there in the coming days, as thousands of additional troops and dozens more helicopters arrive. Army Lt. Gen. Jeffrey S. Buchanan described a mission that is still evolving as the U.S. government grapples with an extended response to Hurricane Maria, which devastated the U.S. island territory Sept. 20 with Category 4 force, killing at least 34 people, including two
suicides, The Associated Press reports. Buchanan arrived eight days later, when about 4,100 U.S. troops were involved in relief efforts throughout Puerto Rico. Since then, that number has more than doubled, to 9,000, including about 4,000 members of the National Guard, he said. At least a “couple thousand” more troops will deploy from the U.S. mainland, Buchanan said. The Puerto Rico National Guard, whose members were slow to activate as they dealt with devastation in their own homes and carried out full-time jobs as first responders, also is expected to play a bigger role, he said. “What I want to do is max out the mobilizations of the Army Reserve and the Army

Senate committee clears path for self-driving cars The Senate Commerce, Science and Transportation Committee approved a bill Tuesday that would allow automakers to apply for exemptions to current federal auto safety standards in order to sell up to 15,000 self-driving cars and light trucks per manufacturer in the first year after passage. The approval was a sign of broad, bipartisan support. (AP)
The general’s comments come after he spent part of the day with President Trump in Puerto Rico on Tuesday. The Trump administration has faced criticism that its response to the storm’s devastation has been slow. Trump has rejected that. Initially, the military responded to Maria with two amphibious combat ships, the USS Kearsarge and USS Oak Hill, to provide relief in Puerto Rico. A third ship, the USS Wasp, was sent to the U.S. Virgin Islands. The Pentagon boosted its operation last week, deploying cargo jets filled with troops and supplies, and sending the hospital ship USNS Comfort. The Wasp was also diverted to Puerto Rico.

NRA’s perfected pattern After massacres, it’s: Lie low. Let the outcry fade. ‘Go back to defending freedom.’ Democrat seeks ban on devices used in Vegas
as long as the gun control audience is a bunch of people who look like the friends I went to graduate school with,” he said. “The only time you ever had any real prospect of more gun control was when you had a liberal Democrat in the White House and a blue Congress.” Now, with a president who pledged to an NRA convention this spring that “you have a true friend and champion in the White House,” gun rights advocates can safely avoid the fray, said Daniel Webster, director of Johns Hopkins University’s Center for Gun Policy and Research. “They’ll put forward the general idea that it’s not guns, it’s bad people,” he said. Many Americans “know tons of people who have guns, and most of those people are not going to concerts and shooting people. Their whole lived experience is they’re surrounded by guns and usually nothing bad happens.” MARC FISHER
POLITICS A senior Democratic senator is pushing for a ban on devices like what the Las Vegas shooter used to effectively convert semiautomatic rifles into fully automatic weapons, and senior Republicans on Capitol Hill said they were open to considering the idea. California Sen. Dianne Feinstein on Wednesday pleaded with the public to pressure Congress to consider her legislation after the horrific violence this week when a gunman killed 58 people and himself and injured hundreds. “Mr. and Mrs. America, you have to stand up, you have to say ‘enough is enough,’ ” said Feinstein, above. “Why can’t we keep a weapon from becoming a military-grade weapon?” The devices, known as “bump stocks” among other names, are legal and originally intended to help people with limited hand mobility fire a semiautomatic without the individual trigger pulls required. The No. 2 Republican in the Senate, Texas’ John Cornyn, said Feinstein’s bill deserves a hearing. House Democrats began the day by pushing for action on guns, with Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi accusing Republicans at a news conference of being “a wholly owned subsidiary of the National Rifle Association and Gun Owners of America” as she and other Democrats bemoaned the lack of action by the GOP to address gun violence.

Gun rights advocates hang back, waiting for the public’s sorrow and outrage to subside. And nothing further happens, until the next horrific act fuels the next spin of the cycle. That is what happened after the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando, after the Sandy Hook Elementary School killings, after the massacre at Virginia Tech. This is, according to gun rights activists, what will unfold in the aftermath of the killing of at least 59 people in Las Vegas on Sunday night. The National Rifle Association, the country’s most influential gun rights group, counts on this, past officials of the organization said. “For 17 years, there’s been a series of nonstop copycat mass killings, and the NRA has concluded that engaging in battle will just escalate the backlash,” said Michael Hammond, legislative counsel for the Gun Owners of America and a former consultant to the NRA. “Our supporters understand that gun control demands are just an effort to put points on the board against the NRA, which is viewed as an arm of the Republican Party. So the NRA is quiet, and then, after the ‘we gotta do something’ aspect quiets down, they go back to defending freedom.” NRA officials did not respond to a request for comment, but the organization’s media strategy is plain to see. Its social media feeds are normally a stream of tales of Americans using their

firearms to fend off bad guys and warnings against purported efforts to disarm citizens. As of Wednesday evening, the NRA Twitter feed had had no new posting since Sept. 29, the Friday before Sunday’s shootings. In the previous week, the feed featured an average of 10 posts a day. Similarly, the group’s Facebook has gone silent, with no postings since last week. “The NRA goes dark after every single mass shooting,” said Shannon Watts, president of Moms Demand Action, which pushes for gun regulation. In the weeks after a gunman killed 26 people — including 20 first-graders — in Newtown, Conn., in 2012, polls found a small shift in favor of gun control and against protections on gun ownership. But within a few months, that shift had disappeared and the public was back to a near-even split between those two priorities. Mike Weisser, a Democrat who favors regulation despite
Why no gun research? In 1996, the GOP-majority Congress threatened to strip funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention unless it stopped funding research into firearm injuries and deaths. The National Rifle Association accused the CDC of promoting gun control. As a result, the CDC stopped funding gun control research, and money dried up for almost all public health studies of the issue nationwide. The National Institute of Justice funded 32 gun-related studies from 1993 to 1999, but none from 2009 to 2012, according to Mayors Against Illegal Guns. The institute briefly resumed some funding in 2013 and 2014, in the wake of the Sandy Hook shooting in 2012, but has made no grants since then. (TWP)

Girlfriend: No hint of plans
Investigators question people close to shooter, hoping to find motive

Trump calls Vegas shooter ’very sick man’ ROBYN BECK (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)
LAS VEGAS The girlfriend of the Las Vegas gunman said Wednesday she had no idea of the massacre he was plotting when he sent her on a trip abroad to see her family. Marilou Danley issued the statement after returning from her native Philippines and being questioned for much of the day by FBI agents. She was out of the country for more than two weeks. She said she was initially pleased when Stephen Paddock wired her money in the Philippines to buy a house for her family, but she later feared it was a way to break up with her. “It never occurred to me in any way whatsoever that he was planning violence against anyone,” Danley said in a statement read by her attorney Matthew Lombard. She also said: “He never said anything to me or took any action that I was aware of that I understood in any way to be a warning that something horrible like this was going to happen.” Danley spoke with the FBI for several hours as investigators struggled to get inside the mind of Paddock, who carried out his high-rise massacre without leaving the plain-sight clues often found after major acts of bloodshed. Danley, 62, has been called a “person of interest” by investigators. Investigators are busy reconstructing Paddock’s life, behavior

and the people he encountered in the weeks leading up to the mass sho ot i ng, F BI Deputy Director Danley Andrew McCabe said. That includes examining his computer and cellphone. As of Wednesday, investigators were unable to explain what led Paddock to fire down on a country music festival Sunday night from the windows of his 32nd-floor room at the Mandalay Bay hotel casino, killing 58 people and himself, and injuring more than 500. “This individual and this attack didn’t leave the sort of immediately accessible thumbprints that you find on some mass casualty attacks,” McCabe said.

high-stakes gambling at Nevada casinos, where his game of choice was video poker. “He was a private guy. That’s why you can’t find out anything about him,” his brother, Eric Paddock, said from his home in Florida. As for what triggered the massacre, the brother said: “Something happened that drove him into the pit of hell.” Danley’s sisters in Australia
said that they believe she was unaware of Paddock’s murderous plans and that he sent her away so she wouldn’t interfere. A brother, Reynaldo Bustos, told ABC from his home outside Manila, the Philippines, that Danley had assured him: “Do not panic. I have a clean conscience.” Investigators are trying to trace the $100,000 that Paddock wired to the Philippines days before the shooting. Also, casino regulators are looking closely at Paddock’s gambling habits and checking their records to see whether he had any disputes with casinos or fellow patrons. In addition, investigators are examining a dozen financial reports filed in recent weeks when he bought more than $10,000 in casino chips. KEN RITTER, MICHAEL BALSAMO AND BRIAN MELLEY (AP)
MENTAL HEALTH
The state of Nevada’s ranking among all states and D.C. in mental health resources and access to treatment, according to the most recent annual report from Mental Health America. Ninety percent of depressed youths in the state received no treatment or inadequate treatment last year, it noted, and 16 of Nevada’s 17 counties were listed by the federal government as areas with shortages of mental health professionals. After Sunday’s mass shooting in Las Vegas, experts are wondering whether the state will be able to meet the need for trauma counselors. (TWP) Trump receives condolence calls from leaders of Mexico, Japan after Las Vegas shooting
LAS VEGAS After meeting with some of the victims of the worst mass shooting in modern American history, President Trump said Wednesday that the killer was a “very demented person.” “It’s a very sick man. He was a very demented person,” Trump said as he left the University Medical Center, which has cared for dozens of shooting victims. Trump said he doesn’t know what motivated Stephen Paddock, 64, to open fire on an outdoor country music festival on the Las Vegas Strip late Sunday night, but “we’re looking very hard” for answers. The attack killed 59 people and injured more than 500. Throughout his four-hour visit to Las Vegas on Wednesday, Trump repeatedly praised police, first responders and average Americans who quickly worked to save the lives of others Sunday. The president said that he invited many of those he met to visit the White House. “I said, ‘If you’re ever in Washington, come on over to the Oval Office.’ And they’re all saying, ‘We want to do it. How do we do it?’ ” Trump said. “And, believe me, I’ll be there for ‘em. But the message that I have is that we have a great country, and we are there for you, and they’re there for us.” When a reporter asked the president about gun violence, he responded: “We’re not going to talk about that today.” JENNA JOHNSON AND ASHLEY PARKER (TWP)

Anthony Rendon doesn’t want attention but is learning how to handle it.
Rendon would prefer to stay out of spotlight, but MVP-caliber season won’t let him NATIONALS No one looks as free and easy on the field as Anthony Rendon, but he is trapped. His talent is impossible to ignore. But his desire to remain anonymous will not wane. So in compiling an MVP-caliber season — a .301, 25-homer, 100-RBI milestone gem — Rendon signed what is, for him, a painful social contract. By producing as he has, Rendon has transformed himself into a public personality, and he is wrestling with what that means. “I’m not a fan of [attention]. But I’m coming to the realization that if I’m gonna have success at my job, it’s probably going to happen,” said Rendon, 27. “You have to put personal stuff aside and use it for a greater good.” For some players, the transition to public figure is easy.
They answer a few questions, toss in a few jokes, smile here and there and get it all over with. The formula for being well-liked, but still largely unknown is not complicated. For Rendon, that formula requires more of a facade than he can muster, more discussion of his achievements than he prefers. Just last week he tried to flee the clubhouse as cameras huddled around him after a particularly good game. He came back, but made his answers so short that the whole thing was over in less than a minute anyway. Over the years, Nationals media relations officials have prodded Rendon to be more open to building a public persona. This season, he’s given a few more interviews, shared a little more here and there. He has been more
“I feel like I’ve grown to become a lot more selfish.” ANTHONY RENDON, on his struggle to stay humble and not turn into “a diva” as a pampered pro athlete.
willing to talk than he used to be, though that’s a relative term. Nothing about Rendon — “the smooth cat that plays third base and hits .300,” as pitcher Joe Ross put it — suggests he is ever battling much at all. He makes more money than most people his age. He is engaged now. But Rendon is struggling in his own way, wrestling with himself daily, because the big league lifestyle sometimes troubles him. “Everything’s given to us,” he
said. “We don’t even wash our own clothes. We don’t cook our own food.” He counteracts that privilege with a deep and growing commitment to his Christian faith. He tries “to stay in the word,” which keeps him grounded. Oddly enough, Michael A. Taylor said the most impressive thing about Rendon as a hitter is the way he stays grounded in his stance, the way he never seems to be jumping at the ball, nor trying too hard — the way he makes it all seem so simple. Taylor said he struggles to stay steady like Rendon, to keep his feet still and his head in position to identify what’s coming and react. Staying grounded in the batter’s box, Taylor said, isn’t as easy as Rendon makes it look. CHELSEA JANES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Cubs manager Joe Maddon said Wednesday that Kyle Hendricks will start Friday in the NLDS opener in Washington, with Jon Lester in Game 2.

Hendricks missed time with a finger injury but had a 2.19 ERA in 13 starts after the All-Star break. Stephen Strasburg is likely to start Game 1, but the Nats didn’t announce that.

CAPITALS SEASON PREVIEW
Hung over and stretched thin
Feeling sluggish after playoff disappointment, the Capitals begin 2017-18 with less depth and experience
Pillars take on additional responsibility The Capitals will look much different from top to bottom this year. For them to make another run at the playoffs, they’ll have to rely on these three leaders. B.R.
Alex Ovechkin looks to rebound after scoring a career-low 16 even-strength goals last season.
NICK WASS (AP)
NHL The Capitals concede there is a sluggish feeling around the club as it prepares for the 2017-18 season, which starts with a game in Ottawa tonight (7:30, NBCSW). After a second straight Presidents’ Trophy-winning campaign ended with another second-round exit to the eventual Stanley Cup champion Penguins last spring, the Capitals admit they’re still feeling the effects this fall. “It’s been a little harder to get the energy this year based on how [last year] ended,” said coach Barry Trotz, who is entering the final year of his contract. General manager Brian MacLellan has suggested that the Capitals have a championship hangover, minus the title. The players agree. “It’s tough to get beaten by the same team twice in a row,” said forward Nicklas Backstrom ahead of his 11th NHL season. “Somehow, we have to look forward. We’ve got to work past that.” Doing so won’t be easy. On paper, the Capitals aren’t as skilled or as deep as last year. Six regulars from that team are now employed elsewhere, including forwards Marcus Johansson (Devils), Justin Williams
(Hurricanes) and Daniel Winnik (Wild). That trio combined for 60 goals last season. Washington will rely on contributions throughout the lineup to fill the void, but more will be asked of Alex Ovechkin. The 32-year-old tied for the league lead with 17 power-play goals last season, but his 16 even-strength goals were the fewest of his career. “He’ll get more ice time this year,” MacLellan said of Ovechkin. “With us not being as deep,
I can see him having more shots and more opportunity to increase his production.” In an effort to spread the offense among the top two lines, Trotz split up the longtime tandem of Backstrom and Ovechkin. Backstrom will center Andre Burakovsky and T.J. Oshie on the first line, while Ovechkin is expected to begin the year with Evgeny Kuznetsov and prospect Jakub Vrana. Two of Washington’s young
Frightful October As the Capitals try to put last season behind them and integrate new players, they’ll be faced with a daunting schedule in the first month of the season. Eight of Washington’s 12 games in October are on the road, culminating with a difficult back-to-back at Edmonton and Calgary. The itinerary includes Stanley Cup contenders Tampa Bay (Monday), Pittsburgh (Wednesday) and Toronto (Oct. 17). B.R.
forwards must continue to develop. Burakovsky, 22, scored 12 goals in 64 games last season. Tom Wilson, 23, looks to add to the seven goals he scored in 82 games. “That’s part of being a more mature player and going into your fifth year,” said Wilson, who will miss the first four games of the season because of a suspension for boarding. Bottom-six forward Brett Connolly is targeting a 20-goal season after finding the net a career-best 15 times last year. Veteran Jay Beagle said he’d take a 15-goal campaign after a career-high 13 tallies last year. “It’s by committee,” Trotz said. “Next man up.” That may also be the approach on the back end as the Capitals try to replace defensemen Karl Alzner (Canadiens), Nate Schmidt (Golden Knights) and Kevin Shattenkirk (Rangers). Top-four defensemen Matt Niskanen, Dmitry Orlov, John Carlson and Brooks Orpik are all solid, but Washington’s third defensive pair will be a work in progress. Taylor Chorney and Aaron Ness, who played 20 NHL games between them last season, are expected to start off as the third pair. BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)
Braden Holtby
T.J. Oshie
Evgeny Kuznetsov
No NHL goalie has started more games or earned more wins over the past three seasons than Holtby, 28. The 2015-16 Vezina Trophy winner will be tested more this season after key departures on the blue line. The Capitals allowed the fourth fewest shots against last season, but that total will likely rise.
Despite missing 14 games last season with upper-body injuries, Oshie scored a career-high 33 goals, tying Ovechkin for the team lead and forcing the Russian to share that honor for the first time. Oshie, 30, was retained on an eight-year, $46 million deal this offseason and is lethal on the power play.
With a new deal worth $62.4 million over eight years, Kuznetsov will soon supplant Nicklas Backstrom as Washington’s top center. Kuznetsov, 25, also takes Marcus Johansson’s spot on the No. 1 power play. The onus is on him to score more after tallying 59 points last year compared with 77 in 2015-16.

Each flavor of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams starts with a distinct base and has different flavors added in.

DESSERTS Even if you’ve never heard of Jeni Britton Bauer, you’ve probably tried her most famous ice cream flavor. The founder of Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams has been credited with creating salted caramel ice cream, a sweet and savory combination that’s
been extensively replicated. “I started making it my first day in business [in the early 2000s],” Britton Bauer says. “It was an immediate hit. Back then nobody had seen salt in sweets. People would drive from surrounding states to try it.” Now the Ohio-based company, which has 32 locations, is bringing a handful of sundaes and almost 20 different ice cream flavors to a two-story shop newly opened on 14th Street NW. The
make ice cream very dry, Britton Bauer says the team crafts a proprietary base for each variety, resulting in an incredibly expressive chocolate that’s like a ganache. “You need to know how to take milk apart and put it back together,” she says. “There’s a lot of chemistry involved so you don’t upset the balance.” In honor of the D.C. location’s opening, Jeni’s will serve free ice cream to every customer on Thursday. Seriously, every one. “If the line goes to 2 in the morning, we’ll be out here until 2 in the morning,” she says. “I’ll probably start out in heels and end up in slippers.”

Becky Martha Argerich Waddell plays Prokofiev Sir Antonio Pappano, conductor
Becky Waddell could use a day off after this summer. Two months after welcoming a baby girl, Lily, in June, the wellness enthusiast opened Take Care, a Georgetown shop dedicated to natural skin and hair products, fragrances, cosmetics, jewelry and home goods. This week, Waddell, 30, is starting another adventure, moving from her rowhouse on H Street to a Georgetown apartment a few blocks from Take Care. If she ever gets that day off, she’ll bring Lily and husband Trevor for a tour through both neighborhoods. First we would go get coffee at Shopkeepers Gallery. Then we’d go to Sally’s Middle Name for breakfast or brunch, because they have gluten-free options and I have celiac disease. They also have [non-alcoholic] shrubs — I can’t drink right now because I’m breast-feeding, so it’s nice to have a fun drink option. They’re so hands-on and creative, their menu is like no one else’s menu.
Iconic pianist, classical music legend, and recent Kennedy Center Honoree Martha Argerich returns to D.C. for an inspired concert with the famed Italian orchestra conducted by Sir Antonio Pappano. Also featuring Respighi’s Pines of Rome, premiered by the orchestra in 1924.

Missed yesterday’s paper?
After brunch, we would probably go shopping for a little bit. My husband would want to make a stop at Redeem on 14th Street — Trevor can do some serious damage at that store.

I would probably go to Lettie Gooch. It’s such a cute little shop. We’re definitely going to go drop things off at Take Care, check in with the team and check in with the event or class going on at the store. Then I would walk on down to Chaia to get their green bean tacos that I’m obsessed with. I never want them to end, but I’m sure we’re running up on the end of green bean season. Then I’d grab either coffee if I’m feeling it or an iced sparkling matcha at Grace Street Coffee. They have such beautiful beverages. I’m not actually a huge fan of matcha — I find it a bit earthy — but they have a really good sparkling matcha with just a bit of vanilla simple syrup that’s very refreshing. My husband would cook dinner. This sounds so simple,
but he makes amazing roasted vegetables. That would be great — although we do love Vegetable and Butcher. It’s a locally owned meal-delivery service. They’re gluten-free and dairy-free and you can get vegan meals too. They send you the whole thing already done and all you have to do is put it in the microwave. If I were drinking, I would go to Dio Wine Bar to have a glass of wine at the end of the night. It just opened on H Street; I haven’t been able to go yet. I’m so excited to have a natural wine bar run by a young woman like myself. That takes a lot of guts and a lot of determination, so I would want to support her, and also indulge in some fantastic wine. I hate to sound so boring, but we would end our night at 8:30 or 9 p.m. We would be pretty tuckered out at the end of that day. (AS TOLD TO LORI MCCUE)

MUSIC After living in New York and Boston for much of his adult life, jazz pianist John Medeski moved to the Hudson Valley in upstate New York in 2003, trading city life for a secluded house in the woods about two hours from Manhattan. The loose region that contains the Hudson River has long been a popular enclave for musicians (it’s where Woodstock was staged) and remains home to many players who migrate there from the city. “There’s a certain native energy here that we tap into, that fuels us, and it’s really just beautiful,” Medeski says. “For the past 100 years, it’s been a place for artists and musicians to come and be inspired.” In 2014, Medeski and a few other jazz musicians who live in the area — drummer Jack DeJohnette, bassist Larry Grenadier and guitarist John Scofield — joined forces for a one-off show at the Woodstock Jazz
Festival. Last year, DeJohnette (who played on Miles Davis’ “Bitches Brew”) decided he wanted to do something for his 75th birthday in 2017, so he called up his collaborators from that festival set. The band Hudson was born and a plan was hatched: They’d record original compositions, along with improvisational jazz takes on pop and rock songs that were either about the Hudson Valley, recorded there or from musicians who had a connection to the area (including Joni Mitchell’s “Woodstock,” Bob Dylan’s “Lay Lady Lay” and The Band’s “Up on Cripple Creek”). The chemistry was instantaneous. “I think it’s pretty obvious in the music, when you hear it,” says Medeski, a third of the avantgarde jazz group Medeski Martin & Wood, which often collaborates with Scofield. “You never know when you get a bunch of guys together — it doesn’t mean there’s gonna be chemistry. There’s something about where we meet because we all have a lot of the same influences but varying degrees of doing different things, between jazz and popular music
From left, Larry Grenadier, Jack DeJohnette, John Scofield and John Medeski make up jazz supergroup Hudson.
and funk and R&B and avantgarde music. We all have connections to that music so when we come together, the common denominators that arise are really great and we all get pushed in different directions that give the band a life of its own.” You can hear that process in real time on “Hudson,” the first track from the resulting album of the same name, which the band will bring to the Hamilton on Tuesday for a live show. “That [recording] was the first and only time that [song]
“There’s a certain native energy here that we tap into. … For the past 100 years, it’s been a place for artists and musicians to come and be inspired.” JOHN MEDESKI, piano player for the jazz band Hudson, on the why the quartet’s members all choose to live in New York’s Hudson Valley
happened, and now, when we do it live, it’s different every night,” Medeski says. “Everyone in the band is a composer and improviser and a great soloist, so you put that all together with the desire to make music and that kind of stuff happens where you can create this piece — this spontaneous composition can happen without having to talk about it at all.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

pumpkin bubble bath, all while tweeting about how you love fall. The reason pumpkin has become the defining taste of autumn is marketing, and it’s time it stops dominating the market. We sought out local dishes that celebrate the season with fall flavors like plum, fig, pear and chestnut — and there’s not an orange menace among them. Welcome to the pumpkin-free zone. BRYANNA CAPPADONA, SADIE DINGFELDER AND KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)
Ensalada tibia de coles de bruselas, fruta de temporada y yogur Jaleo, multiple locations; $10
An autumn salad doesn’t have to be beet-based. At Jaleo, the ensalada tibia de coles de bruselas, fruta de temporada y yogur tosses lightly blanched leaves of the fall standby Brussels sprouts with jewel-like pomegranate seeds, oranges, apples and white grapes. Citrusy Greek yogurt lies at the bottom of the bowl, giving the crunchy dish a welcome tang. If the only way you’ve had Brussels sprouts is your mom boiling them to death, this dish might make you a convert.
For anyone who has ever heard mezcal described as “smoky tequila,” know that phrase is reductive. At Espita Mezcaleria, the Mexican spirit is not to be pounded down, but sipped and savored. The Mariposa tracionera, one of their fall cocktails, is made with mezcal, cardamaro (an herby liqueur), a punchy damson plum gin, Cocchi vermouth and Fernet; it’s garnished with a dried fig. It has the sweetness of plum, a little vegetal bite, and it finishes like you drank one of those perfect fall days where someone is burning leaves off in the distance somewhere.
Slipstream, 1333 14th St. NW; $6
Upgrade your fall brew game and trade that pumpkin spice latte in for something fresh, like Slipstream’s apple spiced espresso tonic.

Roasted hen of the woods mushrooms District Winery, 385 Water Street SE; $8
Among the mushrooms that favor damp, fall forests, hen of the woods is one of the showiest. These frilly little beasts — also known as maitake in Japan — can stand on their own, and District Winery chef du cuisine Ben Lambert keeps his presentation simple, roasting the mushrooms with thyme and olive oil. But before sending the dish out, he adds a splash of the unexpected: a drizzle of Minus 8 ice wine vinegar from Niagara, Canada.

Lamb Graffiato, 707 Sixth St. NW; $18
It’s a lamb’s world at Graffiato, where executive chef Elliot Drew has constructed a dish built around pleasantly chewy slices of leg of lamb. It sits atop a sweet chestnut puree and is topped with roasted chestnuts; balls of compressed apple add crunch and tartness. It has the hearty feel you want when the weather turns crisp without sending you into a comfort-food coma.

weekendpass Chestnut agnolotti Bresca, 1906 14th St. NW; $19
Bresca’s chestnut agnolotti checks off a few boxes on the list of what makes an ideal fall dish. Perhaps the most obvious: The little pasta pockets are stuffed with a creamy roasted chestnut filling, so you’re immediately hit with a quintessential fall flavor. Second, the agnolotti is paired with tender rabbit and more subtle fall flavors like sunchoke, Asian pear and lightly pickled mustard seeds. They combine with the richness of the chestnut to create a heavenly sweet and savory combo that’s the ultimate comfort.
Spallina Osteria Morini, 301 Water Street SE, Suite 109; $26
Chances are, you’ve only had porcini mushrooms dried. Deliciously pungent, this Italian staple has a more delicate flavor when you hunt down the rare, fresh variety, which is available only in the fall. Executive chef Ben Pflaumer has embraced the season by creating a double-pocketed ravioli, with fresh porcini on one side and tangy squacquerone cheese on the other. The dish is finished with a drizzle of browned butter and shavings of another fall fungus: fresh black truffles.

Apple fall spice cake RareSweets, 963 Palmer Alley NW; $6 per slice

The icing features a warming blend of four fall spices: cinnamon, clove, cardamom and ginger.

You don’t need to be over 21 to buy this ice cream, but it sure tastes like it. Rye whiskey from Virginia’s Catoctin Creek Distillery packs a surprisingly alcoholic punch — a pleasant edge to the otherwise mild flavors. Maple, applied with a light touch, brings coziness to the iced treat without being too sweet, and candied pecans add a buttery crunch.

WILD DOGS RENDERINGS
An Intimate Evening with
FESTIVALS “Most people haven’t been inside an 80-foot, inflatable, cloudlike structure.” What Ken Farmer is saying is probably true. Farmer is the curator of Opus 1, a festival that will blend art, music, technology and nature near Merriweather Post Pavilion on Saturday. The structure he’s referring to — one of four stages at Opus 1 — is The Lightning Cloud, designed by architect Jesse Seegers. During the daytime, visitors can watch the sunlight stream through the puffy walls while enjoying musical performances; at night, artist Miho Hatori’s video work “New Optimism” will be projected on the inside (and will be visible from the outside). The experience will change hour by hour, if not minute by minute. In fact, change is the only constant when it comes to Opus 1. “A key jumping-off point for us was this idea of stepping into the forest, stepping away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and being able to experience wonder,” Farmer says. While there are set performance times for workshops and musical performances, “there’s a level of a choose-your-own-adventure-type quality. You’re supposed to find your path in it, explore and stick around with the things that are of interest to you.” That means wandering around and checking out various art installations, workshops and musical performances — on your own time and at your own pace. “If you’ve never heard Indian raga music [from Brooklyn Raga Massive] before, you may want to watch all 45 minutes of that,” Farmer says. “Or you might think there’s something else that catches your attention, so you go to that.” “The important thing for us
At Opus 1, attendees will be able to wander around, taking in musical performances and contemporary art.

was this isn’t just a music festival — we wanted something that was one of a kind,” says Vanessa Rodriguez, marketing director at the Howard Hughes Corporation, the developer managing the ongoing overhaul of downtown Columbia, Md., which includes Merriweather. The corporation is presenting Opus 1 alongside Farmer’s New York-based
production and design company Wild Dogs. “We wanted to take art and culture to a different level,” says Rodriguez. The festival’s music acts are wide-ranging: There’s Hibridos Live, which explores Brazilian ritual dance and blends performance with live video mixing; Sophia Brous’ Exo-Tech, an improvisational jazz ensemble; and
hometown standouts the George Mason Pep Band, which will open the festival. While the 11 large-scale art installations that make up Opus 1 won’t move, the environment around them will. Since the festival begins in the daytime and goes into the night, the dimming light means the work you saw at the beginning will be fundamentally changed by the end of the evening. “What we’re really intrigued by is the changing of light in the forest,” Farmer says. The installations “are designed to be able to accommodate changing light conditions. It’s not really something where you come in and you do a loop and you’ve seen it all and you’re done. The evening is really going to be transforming throughout.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Docs in the City, a program that pairs thematically related films from experienced and newbie documentarians, is now on its second showcase, this time with a “coming of age” theme. Up first is “Unfinished Work,” a work in progress from two emerging directors about a young man searching for his identity as an artist in the shadow of a family tragedy. The second is “American Promise,” a 2013 Sundance prizewinner that follows two African-American boys (the directors’ son and his best friend) over 13 years, during which they attend Dalton, a prestigious, mostly white private school in New York City. Director Q&As will also be held.

‘Hitchcocktober’
‘Dream Big, Princess’
Alfred Hitchcock’s films have become so iconic that often people THINK they have seen them (and claim to have done so) even when they haven’t. Pretty much everyone can do the “RHHEEE RHHEEE RHHEEE” theme from “Psycho” and knows who the killer is, but you’d be surprised how many people have never actually watched it. Or “North by Northwest.” Or “Vertigo” — which, seriously, what is wrong with you? Anyway, Angelika’s “Hitchcocktober” can fix that. Every Thursday in October (and on Halloween, natch), you can see one of Hitchcock’s classics — and then you can stop lying about having seen them already. Angelika Pop-Up at Union
Sometimes you find out about things when it’s almost too late. ALMOST. It seems that local AMC Theatres have been showing some of the modern Disney princess movies — think Belle to Merida — for one-week engagements. There are only two films left in the “Dream Big, Princess” series, which started last month, but they’re a pretty good two. Friday through Oct. 12, you can catch “The Princess and the Frog,” one of the few hand-drawn animated films Disney has done recently; Oct. 13-19, Merida fires her arrows into theaters for “Brave.” Even if you’ve missed a few of the series’ films, there’s still a chance for a happy ending.

Q+A | CAMERON ESPOSITO & RHEA BUTCHER
In sickness, health and laughter The married actors and podcast hosts make comedy their family business Stand-up comedians Cameron Esposito and Rhea Butcher spend more time together than the average married couple. For the past two years, they’ve worked side by side on “Take My Wife,” the Seeso series they co-created and star in. On Tuesdays, they co-host “Put Your Hands Together,” a stand-up showcase and podcast at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre in Los Angeles. And when they perform live, it’s often as a package deal. Right now, they’re spending even more time together, sharing a bus for their first co-headlining stand-up tour, “Back to Back.” Just before they headed out (with their dog Murph in tow), we asked the pair about the secret to their success, comedy in the time of Trump and the future of their sitcom. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) Have you ever done a trip like this before together? Rhea Butcher: We’ve driven basically all over this country together in rental cars but this is kicking it up a notch. You work together so much. How do you not get sick of each other? Cameron Esposito: There is no cheat code for that. My life is awesome because the person that I trust the most in the world, that I think is the funniest comic, I get to spend a ton of time with and have a family business with. It’s awesome. But it’s also bulls---. It’s so hard — it’s too much pressure to put on a relationship. I met Rhea, I knew I had to work with her, and on a daily basis we just
figure out how to do that. Rhea plays baseball on the weekends, so she has time away from me. We try to work out a lot so we’re not stressed out. We try to sometimes do friends separately, but what’s the way to do this? I don’t know. Anything to add, Rhea? Butcher: No, just that I’m really grateful that I get to play baseball on the weekends. Baseball games are long. Normally, at “Put Your Hands Together” shows, you perform together. For the tour, are you starting as a duo and then doing separate sets? Butcher: That is exactly what we’re going to do. Some nights

it will be Cameron first, some nights me first. We haven’t done that on the road before. Will this be all-new material, different from your albums and the podcast? Esposito: It feels like it has to be new, right? Since every day is like the dawning of a brand-new world. So, then, how much of your sets are Trump-related? Esposito: I don’t know that we have specific jokes that are Trump jokes, but he’s in the water. I’m 35. In my life, I have only known forward progress. Anybody up to maybe 45 has only seen things going in one direction and so I feel like what I’m trying to process, and what a lot of people are trying to process, is this backslide. … It’s not that I thought things were perfect, it’s that I thought they were always getting a little better, and I think right now, as a comic, that’s a pretty heavy atmosphere. And you can’t get away from it. In D.C., you’re returning to the 9:30 Club, where you both performed after the Women’s March. How do you feel about that day in retrospect?
Esposito: Walking through the march that day, I saw all the things that people talked about it: I saw how exciting it was, how it would have been great if there were more people of color there. … And I also saw how powerful it was that full families were there and people in wheelchairs and the effort that people made to be there, so that was huge. Has life under Trump been as bad as you expected? Butcher: I’m from Ohio; I spent 25 years there. I had been privy to this side of things my whole life, just the people I was around, and so it is exactly what I expected. He said he was going to do all of this, so there’s no reason for anybody to think it’s going to be anything different. Esposito: It’s really hard when you’re a comedian and you’re trying to be taken seriously about a thing. I think a lot of comics are dealing with this right now. What I’m trying to figure out is if there’s anything I could have done differently. I tried to stay vocal. I guess I could have personally stopped Russia from buying Facebook ads. “Take My Wife” is currently
ending with an unaired Season 2 because Seeso is shutting down. Is there still hope that the show may come back? Esposito: We don’t know the answer yet. I will say fan engagement on this has been great, so we really are appreciative of this. You accomplished a lot with that show, particularly by hiring so many women, LGBT people and people of color to roles both on-screen and off. What are you most proud of about the series? Butcher: That we got it done. We wrote and developed that show in four weeks. It’s crazy to write six episodes of a television show in four weeks, but to add developing it on top of it is bonkers. Esposito: I am most proud that we got some folks into their respective guilds. Because the way that the show will have a lasting effect is giving people jobs. I hope is that with our small show on the smaller steaming service we were able to at least create a ripple effect and get people more work down the line, because that really is how we will change the demographics in our industry.

Go beyond the headliners
From En Garde Arts A pulsating multimedia documentary theater work derived from the real-life stories of six families
The All Things Go Fall Classic has a lot more things going for it this time around. The single-stage music festival is jumping from one day to three for its fourth year, with more than 20 bands performing over the course of this weekend. “We get to add some artists and genres that we haven’t really been able to [feature] in past years,” says Zack Friendly, co-founder of All Things Go, which started as a D.C. music blog before growing into one of the city’s biggest festivals. And while the headliners (Galantis, Young Thug, Foster the People) grab all the, well, headlines, he’s quick to point out that the opening acts aren’t just filling the time. “Our focus has [long] been on emerging artists and new talent you may not have heard of before,” Friendly says. “We hope they play the festival this year, play 9:30 Club next year and then, two or three years from now, they’re headlining the festival.” Here are three acts to show up early for. ANGELA HAUPT (FOR EXPRESS) Union Market, 1309 Fifth St. NE; Fri.-Sun., $74 per day, $169 for three-day pass.

Win and Woo
April + Vista
Great Good Fine Ok
Nick Winholt and Austin Woo, aka Win and Woo, are a remixing duo who radiate serious Chainsmokers vibes, and their tune “Chicago,” featuring soulful pop singer Bryce Fox, landed on Starbucks’ Coffeehouse Pop playlist in June. Their pop-inspired electronic tracks are head-bopping, dancey and tropical — just what you want from a band responsible for opening an entire music festival. “We were kind of blown away that we were able to get them for that spot,” Friendly says. “They’re capable of playing close to a headliner spot at many other festivals, especially electronic ones.”
Here’s the easy part: April + Vista consists of April George, a vocalist and classically trained pianist and violinist, and Matthew Thompson, a producer and engineer. The duo’s sound is more complicated but, basically, it’s a fusion of soul, electronica and R&B. (To get a sense of George’s vocal powers, check out all 97 soothing seconds of “Touch.”) “It’s not just about how many tickets an artist can sell — it’s also about what kind of energy and environment are they going to bring to the festival,” Friendly says. “And April + Vista is one of those bands that, if people show up early enough, they’re gonna walk away with a new favorite band.”
Set time: 4:15 p.m.
Set time: 12:30 p.m.
True to their name, the highenergy Brooklyn synth-pop duo are doing pretty well these days. Singer-songwriter Jon Sandler and keyboardist Luke Moellman released their EP “III” in January and have collaborated with acts like The Chainsmokers and St. Lucia. “III” features seven infectious songs that all have to do with love, the emotion best expressed by Sandler’s trademark falsetto. “Their live show has so much energy,” Friendly says. “They’re not a brand-new band, but we use them as an opportunity to show the D.C. general music public that there’s plenty of good talent that isn’t just going on at the end of the night.”
Key lyric: “There’s not enough wind in Chicago/ to blow this over.”
Key lyric: “In the somber shadows like beasts we roam/ searching through the spectral catacombs.”
Set time: 1:45 p.m. Key lyric: “Always is a word that I never say/ But I feel like trying.”

The Phillips Collection’s blockbuster fall exhibition tells the story behind Renoir’s “Luncheon of the Boating Party” — perhaps the biggest draw in the museum’s permanent collection. Focused on the people who inspired that famous lunch scene, the 40 watercolors, pastels, paintings, drawings and photographs in the exhibit reveal Renoir’s circle of friends and the context behind his masterpiece. You’ll also be able to see what the museum has learned about the painting through such technology as X-radiographic and infrared images.
‘The Red Shoes’ Ballet’s strong presence this fall continues in the touring productions of ballet-powered Broadway shows. Matthew Bourne’s treatments of classic works never fail to reveal something new, which makes his version of “The Red Shoes” — the story of an ambitious ballerina and the men who try to control her — a must-see.

Kimmel finds his new voice TELEVISION Following a curious evolution that turned late-night talk show hosts into the nation’s moral conscience, it’s Jimmy Kimmel whose words are hitting viewers in ways that vault over those from pundits, columnists, journalists and others who talk about complicated issues for a living. Without saying anything new, Kimmel is saying everything right. Leading with his heart instead of his cheesy grin, and letting the nation see a grown man care enough about something to cry, he has spoken movingly on his ABC show, “Jimmy Kimmel Live!,” about the potential cruelty contained in Republican proposals to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act. In a 10-minute monologue Monday night about the shooting massacre that killed 59 people and wounded more than 500 at a concert in his hometown of Las Vegas, he called out the National Rifle Association’s ability to prevent the sort of gun control laws a majority of voters say they want. “I’ve been reading comments
from people who say, ‘This is terrible, but there’s nothing we can do about it.’ ” Kimmel said Monday. “But I disagree with that intensely. Because of course there’s [a] lot of things we can do about it. But we don’t, which is interesting. Because when someone with a beard attacks us, we tap phones, we invoke travel bans, we build walls, we take every possible precaution to make sure it doesn’t happen again. But when an American buys a gun and kills other Americans, then there’s nothing we can do about that.” During the rest of the monologue, Kimmel hit several eloquent notes, but mostly he focused on policy and lawmakers, at one point showing a screenful of faces of 56 senators who voted, not long after the 2016 shooting deaths of 49 people in an Orlando nightclub, against background checks for guns that are sold online, privately or at gun shows. “White House press secretary Sarah [Huckabee] Sanders said this is not the time … for political debate,” Kimmel said. “I don’t know, we have 59 innocent people dead, it wasn’t their time either, so I think now is the time for political debate.” He followed that with a litany of facts and rationales that any gun control advocate has long

been talking about, but, as with his pleas for affordable health care, Kimmel’s emotional delivery might reach and affect viewers in a way that other advocates and politicians and survivors somehow haven’t. Yet he is also sacrificing some of his celebrity capital, a funnyman who stands a risk of alienating an audience looking to him for escape. “I want this to be a comedy show,” Kimmel said, in a genuine plea. “I hate talking about stuff like this. I just want to laugh about things every night, but that
[is] becoming increasingly difficult lately. It feels like someone has opened a window into hell.” Our network late-night hosts would indeed be better off if they only had to tell jokes, satirically riff off the news, pull pranks, play games and interview other celebrities. That we look to them to somehow also be the voices of reason amid so much chaos may be asking too much, yet that need is terribly real. Lacking leaders, we look to class clowns to guide us. HANK STUEVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

“I hope everyone will love and enjoy EVERYTHING ABBY not only for the rest of this season, but for everything she has given all of us for 16 years.” PAULEY PERRETTE, confirming Wednesday on Twitter that, following this current season, she will leave behind her role as Abby Sciuto on the CBS procedural “NCIS” after 15 seasons with the series
Kate Winslet to reunite with “Titanic” director James Cameron for “Avatar” sequels
COMEDY About 10 minutes into Felipe Esparza’s new HBO stand-up special, the comic starts talking about spending nearly a lifetime translating for his parents. “Growing up, when your mom or dad don’t speak English, you have to do everything for them!” he says in the special. “I can’t even do my homework — I’m filling out disability forms.” It’s an experience that resonates with anyone who grew up in a household with adults who didn’t speak English as a first language. In “Translate This,” now available to stream, Esparza uses his trademark crass, blunt and easygoing manner to also tell jokes about his past drug abuse, becoming a dad while in high school and his childhood journey from Mexico to the United States. A trip riding the subway inspired him to talk about translating as a child. He saw a little girl, maybe 8, on a train headed to North Hollywood. She looked like she could have been from Puebla or Oaxaca, but had no accent while chatting with an African-American man. “I was laughing: a little girl, translating a joke in both languages,” Esparza now recalls. “I was telling my wife, this little girl is so smart. I know her life without even knowing her. She does everything for her mom. She probably fills out all the applications. … She’s learning how to be a grown woman at such a little age, and that’s who I was.” ELAHE IZADI (TWP)

“Just found out Starbucks is closing its online store and I won’t be able to order my favorite coffees & vanilla syrup anymore #heartbroken.” @POOLGODDESS918, tweeting
after Starbucks announced that it discontinued its online store at the beginning of October, in an effort to focus more on the physical locations. There was not a ton of pushback on social media, but some people were worried about whether they can still buy their favorite Starbucks syrups.
“The best part about this hostage tape Tillerson was forced to put out is knowing Trump will probably fire him anyway.” @KT_SO_IT_GOES, tweeting after reports surfaced that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson called President Trump a “moron,” and Tillerson gave a news conference Wednesday declaring his loyalty to the president. People compared Tillerson’s response to Taylor Swift’s famous “excluded from this narrative” line regarding her drama with Kanye West. “Please Rex please just say you want to be excluded from this narrative please,” @tessie_the_mess tweeted.

“We all know African prints are awesome & beautiful, appreciate them, but don’t make it look like you just discovered them.” @LITERANDRA, reacting to Stella McCartney’s show at Paris Fashion Week, which showcased African prints. People took issue with how the label used mostly white models and did not credit the source of the designs. “How are you going to use African culture as your ‘inspiration’ yet not even attempt to have African women represented on your runway?” @AmaraWorldWide tweeted.
11am- 4pm
“Is your marriage on the rocks? #StupidQuestions ForBartenders.” @LEANNUH_RENAY, tweeting a stupid
question for a bartender with the hashtag, which trended on Tuesday after the podcast “Open Mic Rejects” put out a Twitter call for submissions. There’s nothing to prove that responders were actually bartenders, but some of the questions were funny. @MrRaceBannon tweeted: “Am I the drunkest customer you’ve ever had?” And @yestennishoe tweeted this dumb question: “What’s in a gin and tonic?”

DIFFICULT
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) The signals you receive today may not tell you where to go, but you have a sense that you’ll know that answer when the time comes. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You may not want to share certain pieces of information with others today, but the rules require you to do so. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) What you most fear is likely to come to pass in some form today, but you’ll find it wasn’t really anything to be afraid of. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You may not be able to assemble enough of the “big picture” from the details currently available to you. Be patient. WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) The
feedback you receive has you altering your basic approach — but the reasons for your current efforts remain unchanged.
WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’ll realize what you must do long before anyone else gives you that information directly. Your ability to anticipate events wins the day. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Time is on your side the first part of the day; whether that remains true later on depends on your definition of “efficiency.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Others will be talking about something you did some time ago, and this may inspire you to revisit a past success and give it another go.
TODAY: Our warming trend continues as highs head for the low to mid-80s under partly sunny skies. The humidity creeps up toward the noticeable range as dew points approach 60, but overall it’s still a fairly comfortable warmth. Look for light winds from the south-southwest. Lows tonight settle in the 60s.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) What you’re dealing with today isn’t likely to be lessened when you share it with a friend. Indeed, it may get more complicated. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You will want to get to the bottom of something that happens without your knowledge. The fact this got away tells you a lot.

‘Phew, how fortunate!’ agrees no one PRECIOUS
Two nice boys find love
@BETHENNYFRANKEL VIA INSTAGRAM
British singer Sam Smith and “13 Reasons Why” actor Brandon Flynn were photographed kissing and holding hands in New York City on Tuesday. A source told Us Weekly that the two started dating recently. “They haven’t publicized their relationship on their social media accounts,” said the insider. “But they also aren’t afraid to show some PDA.” (EXPRESS)

FRIENDS
Kate Winslet admitted that her friendship with “Titanic” costar Leonardo DiCaprio is strong because they never developed romantic feelings for each other. “We were both really very young, and luckily — and this is the fortunate thing — we never fancied each other,” she said on ITV’s “Lorraine.” “I know that’s really annoying to hear, I’m sorry, but we really never did.” (EXPRESS)
CATTY
Maybe a ‘Mean Girls’ remake would be better Kim Cattrall weighed in on the drama surrounding the scrapped “Sex and the City 3” film. A Daily Mail report said the movie was “torpedoed” by Cattrall’s “outrageous demands.” On Piers Morgan’s ITV show, Cattrall said she had been saying “no” to the project for a year. She then called out Sarah Jessica Parker: “I really think she could have been nicer. I don’t know what her issue is, I never have.” (EXPRESS)

Wow, world leaders say the darndest things! On Tuesday’s “Watch What Happens Live,” Brooke Shields talked about the time President Trump asked her out. “He called me right after he had gotten a divorce [from Marla Maples],” she recalled. “He said, ‘I really think we should date, because you’re America’s sweetheart, and I’m America’s richest man, and the people would love it.’ ” (EXPRESS)
Rich lady rich enough to do this “Real Housewives of New York” star and Skinnygirl mogul Bethenny Frankel this week has been documenting on social media her own hurricane relief mission in Puerto Rico. She said in an Instagram video Monday that she was headed to the island with four private planes filled with tens of thousands of dollars in food, medical supplies and gift cards in tow. The planes will then bring injured and ill people back to the United States mainland. “It is a war zone,” Frankel later told the New York Post. “The relief needs to be organized, delegated and executed.” (EXPRESS)
