A pilot distracted by a bee in the cockpit forgot to lower his landing gear and did a ‘‘belly slide’’ down the runway at the New Bedford Regional Airport in Massachusetts. Airport Commission Chair Paul Barton tells The Standard-Times that the small plane slid about 1,500 feet when it landed Monday. The plane sustained significant damage, but the pilot, the only person on board, wasn’t hurt. (AP)

Candidates clash over their leadership styles THE DISTRICT The contentious race for D.C. mayor turned into a defensive battle in front of television cameras Wednesday as the three leading candidates spent much of the third debate between them addressing nagging critiques. Wednesday’s forum, hosted by WRC (Channel 4) and The Washington Post, put the candidates in elbow-to-elbow proximity for the first time. But the candidates, facing only a small studio audience, spent much of their time contending with perceptions of themselves rather than each other. The discussion tended to revolve as much around style as substance. Early in the debate, candidates Muriel Bowser, David Catania and Carol Schwartz staked out territory based more on their approach to politics and governing than their particular positions. Catania said the aggressive approach he has taken on education, health care and other issues was justified by the results he has gotten. And he launched into a pre-emptive defense of a sometimes abrasive style that Bowser and Schwartz have criticized. “When you’re attempting to do big things, you’re not going to please everyone all the time,” he said. “When you do tough things,

Mayoral candidates Muriel Bowser, left, David Catania, center, and Carol Schwartz debated for the third time Wednesday morning.

sometimes you break a few eggs, and you make a few enemies.” Bowser pounced, drawing a distinction between being passionate and being unreasonable and difficult. “You don’t need to belittle the next person to get your point across,” she said. But she was put on the defensive when asked to respond to a quote from D.C. Council member Jim Graham, who said of the two candidates, “One gets things done with a few broken bones, and the other doesn’t get things done.” Said Bowser, “Mr. Graham has had a long tenure but a short memory,” naming projects the two had worked on together.

Schwartz was put on the defensive when asked why she persists in the race despite being behind in the polls and in campaign fundraising. Schwartz, who has lost in four previous mayoral bids, said she has the experience to lead the city and has no plans to withdraw. “I’m in,” she said, explaining that her switch from Republican to independent would expand her appeal. “I can win this.” Each candidate went into the debate seeking to rally an electorate that appears to be lacking in enthusiasm. The most recent published poll suggested that one in four likely voters remains undecided.  MIKE DeBONIS AND AARON C. DAVIS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

D.C. election officials: Vote counting issues are fixed

Human remains recently exhumed from an Alabama grave are not those of the notorious fugitive William Bradford Bishop, who is accused of killing five family members in Bethesda in 1976, officials said Wednesday. Bishop has been on the FBI Most Wanted list.

After a decadelong decline in enrollment, the Prince George’s County, Md., public school system has gained students for the second year in a row. It grew by 2,769 students the past year, according to preliminary figures. Officials said it is an indication that the school system is restoring trust with parents. (TWP)

Elections officials in D.C. say they’ve addressed computer glitches that led to major delays in counting votes during the April 1 primary, but critics say the process was slow and insufficiently transparent. In April, it took nearly four hours after polls closed for results sufficient to call the winner to be made available. (TWP)

Police report: Rabbi hid camera in a ritual bath

Obama to stump for Brown in Pr. George’s County, Md.

Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe on Wednesday announced the layoff of 565 state workers, other targeted cuts and a liquor price-hike as he aims to close a shortfall in the state’s two-year budget. The plan includes closing several Department of Corrections facilities. Coupled with previously announced cuts, the move gets the state closer to the $346 million needed in the first-year of the biennial spending plan after tapping Virginia’s rainy day fund. Earlier this year, state leaders announced that Virginia faces a $2.4 billion shortfall in the fiscal 2015 and 2016 budget that began July 1. The state already had taken steps to narrow the gap. (AP)

A prominent modern Orthodox rabbi at a Georgetown synagogue who was arrested Tuesday on a charge of voyeurism had a camera inside a clock-radio in the showers of a ritual bath, according to a D.C. police report made public on Wednesday. A woman saw the 62-year-old rabbi, Barry Freundel of Kesher Israel Congregation, plugging the radio in, the report says, and police were notified. The synagogue’s board said in a statement that they informed authorities of the alleged impropriety. Police say the rabbi secretly videotaped at least six women changing clothes.

President Barack Obama will appear with Lt. Gov. Anthony Brown at a high school in Prince George’s County on Sunday in an effort to rally support for Brown’s gubernatorial campaign. Brown holds a nine-point lead over Republican Larry Hogan, according to a Washington Post-University of Maryland poll released last week. The visit is part of a multi-state push by Obama to help Democrats running for governor. He also plans to travel to Chicago this weekend to advocate for Illinois Gov. Pat Quinn, and to Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania and Maine in coming weeks, the Associated Press reported. (TWP)

THE DISTRICT Every week the D.C. region gets named the best this or the worst that. The superlative that circulated this week: It is more expensive to live in D.C. than in New York or San Francisco, according to a government study. It left many scratching their heads. After all, it was just last week that a different study called the District one of the most affordable places for low-income families among major U.S. cities. The most recent study was done by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which based its findings on data collected during the past two years in the U.S. Consumer Expenditure Survey. It found

DermConsultsOnline.com

that consumers in the D.C. region reported an average household income of $116,000, compared with New York’s $81,000. And Washingtonians spend more on housing. In the D.C. region, the study found that households spend an average of $28,416 annually on housing. New Yorkers spend $24,187, and San Franciscans spend $25,366. Critics called the data skewed in part because it has broad definitions for the top two regions. BLS data defined New York as an area from Manhattan to the Connecticut and New Jersey suburbs. It defined the Washington region as going from the District to Washington and Frederick counties

Those factors, other economists and researchers said, means the BLS study included people who live and work outside of costly New York City. Richard Bradley, of the Downtown Business Improvement District, said sometimes reality varies from the statistics. He said his 26-year-old son works for a nonprofit group in New York. He pays $3,000 a month for a 500-square-foot apartment in Brooklyn he shares with a roommate. “We’re nowhere near any of those numbers in D.C.,” he said.

nation+world American troops who fought in Iraq were injured after exposure to chemical weapons abandoned by Saddam Hussein, The New York Times reported Tuesday night. The Pentagon “suppressed” the finds of the weapons, the newspaper said. These were not the “weapons of mass destruction” the George W. Bush administration used to justify invading Iraq in 2003. Rather, The Times said, the troops were injured when they stumbled across old shells and warheads procured for use in the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s. (THE WASHINGTON POST) ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN

Politics is literally a dirty game In Ukraine, trashing a politician isn’t a metaphor. It’s literal: Find a suspected shady official, grab him and throw him into a dumpster. Online videos of several public figures receiving the treatment from gangs of rowdy activists have provoked both glee and revulsion. The fad is part of a broader coarsening of the political climate in Ukraine as anger simmers over the snail’s pace of reforms and persisting corruption since the overthrow in February of former President Viktor Yanukovych. Critics of the trend worry that unruly excess could turn even uglier down the line. (AP)

Report: U.S. troops hurt by chemical weapons in Iraq

Protester Ken Tsang, center, is taken away by police early Wednesday before the alleged beating occurred.

Hong Kong protester beating sparks outrage HONG KONG Riot police moving against activists sparked outrage after officers were seen kicking a handcuffed protester and dragging dozens of others away Wednesday in the worst violence against the pro-democracy demonstrations in Hong Kong since they began more than two weeks ago. Outrage over the purported beating — following clashes between security forces and demonstrators — swiftly became a new rallying point for protest groups trying to remain on the streets despite increasing crackdowns and a decline in numbers.

The TVB channel said the incident was filmed in the early hours Wednesday as police cleared a road tunnel near the main protest site, arresting 45 protesters. The video provoked condemnation from protest leaders, prodemocracy legislators and human rights groups. It appeared to show seven police officers leading a protester away, before several of them kicked him on the ground for around four minutes. Protester Ken Tsang said he was kicked while he was “detained and defenseless.” He added that he was assaulted again in the police station afterward.

The Hong Kong Federation of Students called for the resignations of Police Commissioner Tsang Wai-hung and the officer in charge of Wednesday morning’s operation. Later, student leader Lester Shum told thousands of supporters that the police had also used pepper spray “like crazy” against protesters. “What happened last night was so absurd I still can’t accept it,” he said. Clashes continued early Thursday, as police used pepper spray on crowds trying to occupy a road near government headquarters. (AP/THE WASHINGTON POST)

VOCABULARY

Inherent Resolve THE DEFINITION: The (inherently bland) nickname the Pentagon gave Wednesday to the fight against Islamic State militants in Iraq and Syria. THE BACK STORY: Military operations are routinely given official names, in part for administrative reasons. But they are meant also to bolster public support and international credibility. The naming practice goes back at least to World War II, when code names were assigned mainly to preserve security. (AP)

said. The criminal complaint was filed with prosecutors, who will decide formal charges. A number of witnesses told investigators they saw Laude, 26, and Pemberton at the bar and at the motel, where the Marine was seen leaving shortly before the victim was found dead, Domingo said. Police suspect Pemberton may have been angered when he discovered in the motel room that Laude was a transgender individual or because of an argument sparked by other reasons. Pemberton is being held on the USS Peleliu in the Subic Bay free port, about 50 miles northwest of Manila, according to U.S. military officials. JIM GOMEZ (AP)

Whole Foods to roll out rankings for produce

A man who slashed two passengers in a box-cutter rampage aboard a casino-bound tour bus was shot to death on Interstate 95 by a Connecticut state trooper, who also accidentally shot one of the injured passengers, police said Wednesday. The mayhem on the Dahlia bus carrying about 24 passengers from New York City to a Connecticut casino began around 10 p.m. Tuesday, police said. The trooper, who was flagged down by the driver, opened fire when the suspect came at him with a weapon, police said. The man died at a hospital. The two wounded passengers were treated for non-life-threatening injuries. (AP)

A new report from the Center on Juvenile and Criminal Justice adds to the growing body of evidence that legalizing or decriminalizing marijuana does not lead to any number of doomsday scenarios envisioned by legalization opponents. Looking at California, where full marijuana decriminalization went into effect in 2011, the report finds “marijuana decriminalization in California has not resulted in harmful consequences for teenagers, such as increased crime, drug overdose, driving under the influence, or school dropout.” School dropout rates alone fell by 22 percent. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Whole Foods plans to start rolling out a system that ranks fruits and vegetables as “good,” “better” or “best” based on the supplier’s farming practices. Most notably, the supermarket chain says its “responsibly grown” labeling system for produce and flowers will prohibit the use of several common pesticides. The rankings will also take into account factors such as water and energy use. The program will start appearing in stores this month. The standards, developed by Whole Foods, are not an official government designation. The company says the program shouldn’t result in higher prices for shoppers. (AP)

nation+world “The market has been waiting for this 5 to 10 percent correction for quite some time, and we got it.” MICHAEL BINGER, senior portfolio manager at Gradient Investments, analyzing the drop in the S&P 500

WASHINGTONPOST.COM STYLE BLOG

For years, fans of HBO dramas have begged the premium cable giant to create a standalone streaming service, or a way to watch such shows as “Game of Thrones” or “True Detective” without subscribing to HBO on TV. HBO has always said no. Now, the network is reversing course. In quite the historic decision, HBO executives said Wednesday that starting next year, they will officially offer an online-only streaming option. Should cord-cutters everywhere rejoice? Yes, but with some caveats. While it’s a groundbreaking move for a premium cable channel, the network hasn’t worked out all the details. There’s no word on how much an online-only service would cost or what programming would be available and when. An HBO subscription through your cable provider now costs between $15 and $20 a month. Back when that “Take My Money, HBO” petition was making the rounds, asking people how much they would pay for an onlineonly service, the average answer was about $12. At the time, HBO said “thanks for the love, not going to happen.” Now, the network is warming to the idea. “All in, there are 80 million homes that do not have HBO and we will use all means at our disposal to go after them,” CEO Richard Plepler said. EMILY YAHR

HBO’s online move: Time to cut the cord?

The Dow Jones industrial average was down as much as 460 points at one point in afternoon trading Wednesday.

Markets down after roller-coaster day ‘Global growth scare’ sends stocks plummeting before a late recovery BUSINESS Fear drove Wall Street to one of its most dramatic, nauseating days in years on Wednesday. Investors fled stocks and poured into bonds as worries about a global economic slowdown intensified. The Dow Jones industrial average dropped 460 points in afternoon trading, all three U.S. stock indexes were in negative territory for the year, and the so-called fear index spiked. A late recovery limited the damage and left stocks mostly

22%

lower. But investors were shaken after the heaviest day of trading in more than three years. “I think it’s fair to call it a global growth scare right now,” said Bill Stone, chief investment strategist at PNC Asset Management. The yield on the benchmark U.S. 10 -year note fell from 2.20 percent to below 1.91 percent. By the end of the day, it pulled back to a yield of 2.14 percent. The yield on bonds moves in the opposite direction of prices.

“It typically takes weeks for 10-year Treasurys to move 29 basis points,” noted Tom Di Galoma, head of fixed income rates in New York at ED&F Man Capital. “Today it moved 29 basis points in 5 minutes.” Investor concerns of a worldwide economic slowdown turned into outright fear after weeks of turbulence. Germany, Europe’s biggest economy, is struggling. Greece, a key actor in Europe’s debt crisis three years ago, could see its government collapse next

year, putting a crucial bailout program in danger. A batch of worrisome economic news in the U.S. also fueled the selling. Investors have grown nervous of a stock market that had pushed ever higher, even in the face of a weakening global economy. The U.S. market has also not had a correction, a technical term for when a stock or index falls 10 percent or more, in more than 3 years. Historically a correction happens every 18 months. Many market watchers say occasional corrections are a healthy phenomenon over the long term and give investors an opportunity to add to their holdings at a lower cost. “That’s why it’s so important to stay invested at a time like this, rather than think it’s a time to get out,” said Kate Warne, an investment strategist at Edward Jones. Wednesday’s slide brings the market closer to that long-predicted but elusive correction. By the end of the day, the Dow Jones industrial average lost 173.45 points, or 1 percent, to 16,141.74. The Standard & Poor’s 500 index lost 15.21 points, or 0.8 percent, to 1,862.49 and the Nasdaq composite dropped 11.85 points, or 0.3 percent, to 4,215.32. KEN SWEET AND ALEX VEIGA (AP)

Nurse with Ebola flew Texas health worker took a commercial flight the day before she fell ill from virus

2014 election has its October surprise: Ebola

SANA SYED (CITY OF DALLAS/AP)

DALLAS The Ebola crisis in the U.S. took another alarming turn Wednesday with word that a second Dallas nurse caught the disease from a patient — and flew across the Midwest aboard an airliner the day before she fell ill. Though it was not clear how the nurse contracted the virus, the case represented just the latest instance in which the disease that has ravaged one of the poorest corners of the earth — West Africa — also managed to find weak spots in one of the world’s most advanced medical systems. The second nurse was identified as Amber Joy Vinson, 29. Medical records provided by Thomas Duncan’s family show she inserted catheters, drew blood and dealt with Duncan’s body fluids at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital. Duncan, who was diagnosed with Ebola after coming to the U.S. from Liberia, died Oct. 8. Even though the nurse did not report having a fever until Tuesday, the day after she returned home, she should not have boarded an airliner after learning that another nurse, Nina Pham, had been diagnosed with Ebola, government officials said Wednesday. Dr. Tom Frieden, director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, said no one else involved in Duncan’s care will be allowed to travel “other than in a controlled environment.” Infected Ebola patients are not considered contagious until they have symptoms. Frieden said it was unlikely that other passengers or airline crew members were at risk because the nurse did not have any vomiting or bleeding. Even so, the CDC is alerting

WASHINGTONPOST.COM THE FIX

Members of Dallas Fire-Rescue tape off the apartment door Wednesday of the second Ebola-stricken health worker.

the 132 passengers aboard Monday’s Frontier Airlines Flight 1143 from Cleveland to DallasFort Worth “because of the proximity in time between the evening flight and first report of illness the following morning.” Officials are asking them to call the health agency so they can be monitored.

Kent State University, Vinson’s alma mater, was abuzz about its links to the Ebola case after the school announced that three employees related to Vinson have been asked to remain off campus for three weeks. Vinson didn’t visit campus during her recent trip, the school said. On Wednesday, Vinson was being transferred to a special bio-containment unit at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta.

Obama: Ebola monitoring must be improved

Dallas nurses cite sloppy Ebola-care conditions

Texas college apologizes for rejecting Africans

President Barack Obama vowed Wednesday that his administration would provide “much more aggressive” monitoring of Ebola cases in the U.S. In his most urgent comments on the spread of the disease, Obama also sought to ease growing anxiety and fears in the U.S. in the aftermath of a second nurse being diagnosed with Ebola. He said he had directed the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to step up its response to new cases.

A Liberian Ebola patient was left in an open area of a Dallas emergency room for hours, and nurses treating him worked without proper protective gear and faced constantly changing protocols, according to the nation’s largest nurses’ union. National Nurses United said staff treated Thomas Duncan for days without the correct protective gear, that hazardous waste was allowed to pile up to the ceiling and safety protocols constantly changed.

A Texas college apologized Tuesday for what it’s calling “incorrect information” after multiple international applicants received a rejection letter saying that “Navarro College is not accepting international students from countries with confirmed Ebola cases.” The letter recipients are from Nigeria, a country that hasn’t had a new Ebola case in more than 21 days. The college apologized for “any misinformation that may have been shared with students.”

Kosovo frees 8-year-old from Syrian radicals

Wednesday’s news — that a second health worker in Dallas has been infected with Ebola and that she was allowed to travel on a commercial airliner — takes the story and its potential political impact to an entirely new level. It’s just the sort of thing that forces a re-calculation, by the public and the politicians who serve them, of the situation. Why? Because the idea that someone who was on the verge of coming down with Ebola could have been breathing the same air as you for a few hours is scary. Sensing the growing concern, President Barack Obama canceled several campaign events he had scheduled Wednesday in New Jersey and Connecticut to hold a meeting at the White House to coordinate a response to the latest Ebola news. It’s also why politicians are becoming increasingly vocal about a travel ban from the affected West African countries and why Texas Gov. Rick Perry cut short his European trip to come home and deal with the latest news. Add it all up and you are left with this conclusion: Ebola is the October surprise of the 2014 midterms. That is, an unexpected event that has the potential to roil the electorate in all sorts of unpredictable ways. Fear and anxiety are deeply powerful emotions that, when parsed through the political process, can produce uncertain outcomes. CHRIS CILLIZZA

THREE POINTERS

Ready to rebound THINKSTOCK AND GETTY IMAGES/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

With the NBA regular season tipping off in a couple weeks, here are three teams that missed the playoffs last year but will be postseason-bound in 2014-15. (No. 1 is easy.) JEFFREY TOMIK (EXPRESS)

3 New York Knicks 2013-14 record: 37-45

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

Reasons to still tune in

THE REDSKINS’ SEASON IS ESSENTIALLY OVER AT 1-5. Playoff hopes are dashed, so players are motivated more by their

own career needs. The team may not have its quarterback of the future on the roster. And special teams continues to commit critical mistakes. The Redskins may not improve from last year’s 3-13 record after all, suddenly putting coach Jay Gruden on the clock. So what’s left to watch over the remaining 10 games of the season? Here are five storylines to follow since scoreboard watching is now pointless.

1

RGIII’s return

This could be either the revival or the final act for quarterback Robert Griffin III. His eventual return from a dislocated ankle will reveal whether Griffin can run coach Jay Gruden’s offense over the season’s second half. Otherwise, Washington may consider drafting yet another passer in the first round next spring. At least Griffin no longer has second-guessers shouting for Kirk Cousins, who blew his audition as a starter. Cousins is playing for a job in 2015.

2

Gruden’s leadership

Gruden predicted a tough stretch, but he probably didn’t imagine it would come before he could establish credibility with some victories. Gruden needs to seize the locker room by any means necessary, because a bad record combined with weakness leads to players scaling back. With no playoff incentive, it’s now about 2015 jobs. Gruden’s play-calling meshes well with Cousins’ abilities, but he needs to figure a way to call plays better suited for Griffin.

3

Youth movement

The Redskins might as well play rookie cornerback Bashaud Breeland and linebacker Trent Murphy. And playing guard Spencer Long and tackle Morgan Moses on the right side might not be a bad move come December. Coaches at times are reluctant to turn to rookie reserves, but it’s best to give Breeland an extended look because he may need to start next year. Long seems better ready than Moses, but Washington will need both in 2015.

4

Haslett’s future

Defensive coordinator Jim Haslett has been on the hot seat for three years — yet he survived January’s coaching purge. He would normally be safe, given that Gruden once worked for him, but if the season goes south and a fall guy is needed, Haslett is it. He’s working with a depleted secondary, but where’s his trademark pass rush? Haslett used to blitz all the time without fear. After five years of mediocre numbers, this is likely his last fall.

5

Garcon’s numbers

After a team-record 113 catches last season, Pierre Garcon’s reception total could fall into the 60s. When was the last time a healthy receiver caught 50 fewer balls than he did the previous year? Expect Garcon to get more action when Griffin returns. Cousins looks toward Andre Roberts first, while Griffin prefers Garcon. It’s simply scheme and not Garcon losing a step. Will the receiving corps be a happy group sharing the load? That’s doubtful.

The Knicks only missed the playoffs by one game last year. Making a jump this season rides on how they adapt to the triangle offense.

WILL HE BE THE STARTER?

Quarterbacks Kirk Cousins, left, and Robert Griffin III have led the Redskins to a 4-18 record since the start of the 2013 season.

Griffin trade a lose-lose? Blockbuster move in 2012 hasn’t reversed fortunes of last-place Redskins, Rams

REDSKINS There was a time when the blockbuster 2012 trade between the Redskins and Rams that brought Washington quarterback Robert Griffin III was regarded as a win-win scenario for the two teams. But today the Griffin trade increasingly looks like a lose-lose. The Redskins, it seemed initially, had gotten their franchise quarterback. And the Rams had gotten a king’s ransom-worth of draft picks to help build a capable team around the franchise quarterback they believed they already had in Sam Bradford. But now, in the third season since the trade was completed, the Redskins and Rams are lastplace teams with a combined record of 2-9. Griffin and Bradford are hurt. Each team has an

unsettled quarterback situation, now and into the future. “Regardless of who they’re getting with the picks,” former NFL quarterback Tim Hasselbeck said earlier this year, prior to the NFL draft in May, “if Robert has a career where you at least get to the Super Bowl, then I think people will look at it and say, ‘Look, you made a run at it. You had to get a franchise quarterback.’ … If he does his part of it, then it doesn’t really matter. [But] if he’s only OK or not any good, then you look at the other side of it. “Ultimately there’s going to be a player that the Rams got from the trade that’s going to be a good player,” Hasselbeck said. “That doesn’t necessarily mean the Rams got it right.” Both franchises took opposite

choices to build around their franchise quarterback. Things have unraveled from the Rams’ end because Bradford hasn’t been able to stay healthy. But despite Bradford’s injury history, the Rams did little to develop a secondary option. Even after stockpiling picks, the Rams didn’t use a single draft choice to provide themselves with a viable Plan B at the sport’s most important position. For the Redskins, they pinned their hopes on Griffin and, after injuries, he has yet to fully deliver on the price tag they paid. With backup Kirk Cousins supplying an occasional strong performance in Griffin’s stead, it once seemed the Redskins might face a quandary of having one too many quarterbacks capable of being a reliable NFL

“Once they say he’s healthy and he practices with us, and we feel like he’s ready to go mentally and we have a good game plan for him, then he’ll be the starter,” coach Jay Gruden said.

WHEN WILL HE RETURN? Griffin isn’t expected to play until Nov. 2 against Minnesota at the earliest. A more likely scenario has him back Nov. 16 against Tampa Bay following the Redskins’ bye.

starter. But after Cousins’ recurring struggles, it is unclear if they have a single dependable starting quarterback on their roster. Griffin will re-inherit the starting job once he’s healthy. The Redskins face a decision following this season about whether to exercise their fifth-year option for the 2016 season in Griffin’s original four-year rookie contract. This isn’t a quarterback controversy in Washington. This is a quarterback problem, one in which the question is: Can either of these guys play well and win games? It’s certainly not where the Redskins wanted or expected to be after making the Griffin trade. And by not properly backing up the most important player on the field, the Rams find themselves sharing this undesirable common ground. MARK MASKE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Capitals defenseman Mike Green has two goals and an assist in the two games he’s played this season.

Defensemen unleashed on offense in new system Coach Trotz allows players like Carlson, Niskanen and Green more freedom to jump into the play CAPITALS As he prepared for his first season as Capitals coach, Barry Trotz underscored the importance of his defensemen contributing offensively. That meant unleashing them from the restrictive rules implemented by the previous coaching staff, allowing for more freedom to jump into the play. Through three games, the transition is understandably a work in progress, but Washington is encouraged by the initial returns. “It takes just a little bit of time to really perfect it and know

exactly when you should go, when you shouldn’t go,” defenseman John Carlson said. “When we can get our D to move up the ice, it gives the other teams a lot to handle.” It begins on the breakout, when the Capitals’ mobile defensemen, led by Carlson, Mike Green and Matt Niskanen, can freely carry the puck up ice. Once in the offensive zone, they activate, pinching along the boards to maintain puck possession, extend plays and provide support. Knowing precisely when to be aggressive is key and the most

crucial, ongoing adjustment. An ill-timed advance can lead to giveaways and odd-man rushes in the other direction. “It’s really helped when those D-men jump up in the rush,” forward Troy Brouwer said. “The forwards also have to be aware. We can’t turn pucks over. That’s when we’ve gotten ourselves in trouble in the last few games.” When executed properly, Trotz’s system should bring cohesiveness throughout the ice. “I think for me, just the visual of, no matter what zone you’re in the ice, there’s five guys you see with red jerseys. To me, that’s good 200-foot hockey,” Trotz said. “You’re playing in all three zones in a group of five.” ADAM VINGAN (FOR EXPRESS)

ROYALS 2, ORIOLES 1

Royals sweep Orioles to make World Series MLB PLAYOFFS Crown these Royals the American League champions. After nearly three decades spent trying to return to the playoffs, Kansas City is taking its perfect postseason ride all the way to the World Series. With more dominant defense, an opportunistic offense that plated two runs in the first inning, and a bullpen that shut down the Baltimore Orioles once again, Greg Holland and the wild-card Royals wrapped up a sweep of the AL Championship Series with a 2-1 victory on Wednesday. Next stop: The Royals’ first Fall Classic since 1985. They’ll face the winner of the NLCS between the Giants and Cardinals. San Francisco led 2-1 before Wednesday’s game. Kansas City will host the first two World Series games beginning Tuesday. Coincidentally, it was the Cardinals who the Royals beat for their only World Series title in a dramatic seven-game series. Regardless of the opponent, the Royals will carry an 11game playoff win streak into the World Series, one shy of the major league record. That includes winning their first eight games this season.

COMEDIAN, ACTOR (‘NEIGHBORS,’ ‘BROAD CITY’), ASTHMA ADVOCATE Whether he’s portraying a police officer (“Neighbors”), a dentist (“Broad City”) or an angry bird (the forthcoming “Angry Birds” movie), comedian Hannibal Buress is almost always playing “comedian Hannibal Buress.” It’s not that the laid-back, cerebral comic doesn’t like a challenge, he’s just funniest as himself. “All the stuff I’ve done is basically just slightly different versions of who I am, which is fine. I’m cool with that,” Buress says. “I haven’t played anything that crazy and I don’t really have a desire to.” Besides, stand-up is Buress’ top priority. On Friday, the 31-year-old brings a still-in-progress batch of new material to the Lincoln Theatre for two shows. RUDI GREENBERG You were in D.C. last month opening for Aziz Ansari at Verizon Center. What’s it like to do comedy in an arena?

It’s crazy doing comedy where they play basketball and [host] huge concerts but the crowd was into it and it was a lot of fun. You also did a bunch of outdoor Oddball Festival shows this summer. How does performing in an amphitheater compare to an arena? The main difference is with Oddball, the sound is different. You can still hear people laughing, you can feel the energy, and it’s good, but an arena is indoors, so the energy is a little better. At Oddball, people are back on the lawn getting faded [and] smoking weed. Nobody’s really smoking weed in the Verizon Center. Did you hang out in D.C. before or after the Verizon Center show? We took a tour of the White House. The president didn’t come say “what’s up.” I guess he was busy. It’s all good. We took a nice tour. I had some stuff to say to Obama about inhalers, man. What about? He made it so you can’t get inhalers over the counter. Do you remember Primatene Mist? No. It’s because you don’t have asthma like I do. I’m an asthma advocate. Primatene Mist is an inhaler that you used to be able to buy over the counter and then it wasn’t available anymore. … It’s funny: You have to have a prescription even if you’re about to pass out at the pharmacy.

I’m not in a rush to film another one. Maybe next year. Wherever they speak English, I’m trying to tell these jokes before I film it. Why call the tour “Comedy Camisado”? I thought it sounded catchy. I had a friend, Haji Outlaw, send me some words. I was like, “I wanna come up with a tour name” and he

was like, “Camisado, [it] means an attack that happens at night.” That sounds fitting for comedy. You’re doing a voice in “Angry Birds.” Are you a bird or a pig? I’m voicing a bird, a bird with a family. That’s the only way I get to have a family — if I’m acting. Your “Gibberish Rap” was kind of a joke, but do you ever want to take music seriously?

BALLOU

FILM For the climactic scene in “Dear White People” to work, writer-director Justin Simien had to make his audience — no matter their race — feel really uncomfortable. The film, out Friday, tells the story of four black students at a largely white, Ivy League-esque fictional college. When the university’s humor club throws a Halloween party with an “urban” theme, the insinuated, subtle racism that pervades the film is suddenly very overt.

McRib commercial. The best I can do is put in cinema this very real thing that happens on college campuses and make you viscerally feel what that feels like. That scene is intentionally supposed to make you feel bad, because that’s how it feels.” The message of Simien’s Indiegogo-boosted debut feature goes beyond “blackface is a bad idea. YES, ALWAYS.” Instead, Simien says, “it’s about the ageold conflict of identity vs. self, and I happen to be talking about that from a black point of view.” The four main characters all start as retreads of stock black characters audiences are used to seeing on screen: a militant activist, a preppy guy, a fashionista and a nerd. “In mainstream culture,

people of color are not really represented as complex,” Simien says. “There are these sort of archetypes, and I wanted to represent those archetypes at the beginning of the film that slowly get dismantled.” “Dear White People” isn’t just about being black in a white world — it’s also about being black in a black world in a white world. “It’s really about toggling between the communities,” Simien says. “There are assumptions about me as a black man within the black community and assumptions about me as a black man within the white community, and the dance between the two — that awkward middle space — was the wellspring from where the stories came from.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

Films include “Chinatown,” about efforts to preserve the character and heritage of the neighborhood that go further than Bed, Bath & Beyond putting Chinese on its sign; “Ballou,” left, which follows a local high school’s marching band for a year; and the D.C. premiere of “Transcending Surgeon,” about Dr. Edward Cornwell III, a D.C. native who is surgeon-in-chief at Howard University Hospital. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)

In “Whiplash,” J.K. Simmons plays Fletcher, who feels the best way to teach jazz is to destroy his students’ souls. (His students sure can play, though.) While Fletcher prefers to cause psychological damage, most of his movie colleagues lean toward the cuddle. GLENN HOLLAND Richard Dreyfuss got an Oscar nomination for playing this band teacher who loses his own dreams while helping others reach for theirs in “Mr. Holland’s Opus,” a film that made you want to reach out to whatever high school teacher pushed you the most (Hi, Senor MacGregor!). ROBERTA GUASPARI In “Music of the Heart,” Meryl Streep taught violin to inner-city youths and got an Oscar nomination for her trouble. Since it seems a lot of people get awards for playing teachers, maybe we should pay a little more attention to those who ARE teachers. THE PHANTOM It’s tough to find a good voice teacher, so sometimes you have to compromise. Like in 2004’s “The Phantom of the Opera,” Christine decides to go with a deformed, murderous, stalking weirdo. But his rates are great. DEWEY FINN It’s hard to believe a lot of what happens in “School of Rock,” but the most impossible thing is believing anyone thinks it’s a good idea to give schoolkids stuff that makes them LOUDER. MARIA Julie Andrews isn’t technically a music teacher in “The Sound of Music,” but boy does she get those Von Trapp kids to harmonize. And snags a rich husband while she’s at it!

(WHO THE HECK IS…?)

Ought On Montreal-bred band Ought’s debut album, “More Than Any Other Day,” lead singer Tim Beeler struggles to quiet his restless mind. “Do you feel it like I feel it/ ‘Cause I need to know I’m not alone,” he quivers on the sprawling single “Habit.” Expect him to channel that existential edge on Thursday, when Ought headlines DC9. DEAN ESSNER (FOR EXPRESS) Intro to band dynamics

Big questions

The members of Ought — Beeler on guitar and vocals, Matt May on keyboards, Ben Stidworthy on bass and Tim Keen on drums and violin — came together in 2011 at McGill University in Montreal, where they began regularly practicing in Beeler and May’s off-campus house. “It was a pretty interesting house,” Beeler says. “It was a set of four really run-down apartments above these upscale, five-star restaurants.”

The lyrics on “More Than Any Other Day” often grapple with the lonely struggle of communicating one’s raw feelings through words, an idea that weighed heavily on Beeler as he scrambled to figure out what he wanted to do with his future. “There was a lot of angst,” he says. “If you’ve gone most of your life not questioning how you can think about existing and then go through a period where that becomes unignorable, it really shapes you.”

Jam base

Off the road

The band, whose post-punk sound has drawn comparisons to Talking Heads and the Velvet Underground, writes a lot of its songs during extended jam sessions. “I think it definitely comes from the spirit of that year when we were all initially living together and playing all the time,” Beeler says. “We’ve come to really value [jamming] because you end up surprising yourself. You get pushed in the other three people’s directions. You all sort of jump onto the center of the lily pad.”

Beeler won’t admit to being burned out on touring, but he does lament the band’s lack of time to work on new music. “Before [touring] happened, we would all be playing or writing constantly,” he says. Thankfully, Ought plans on recording a new album shortly after the band gets off the road. “We all have a really strong craving to get back into that,” Beeler says.

PETE SEEGER TUDOR PLACE HISTORIC HOUSE AND GARDEN

tribute

The dining room at Tudor Place displays a mock dinner of sausage and a ham hock made from foam and plaster.

Heavy ham-ded A new exhibit reveals the importance of pigs in early-American diets EXHIBITS Last month, Tudor Place Historic House and Garden — the sprawling residence in Georgetown built and once inhabited by a granddaughter of Martha Washington — debuted “Eating Local,” a collection of old cookbooks, grocery lists and kitchen implements used by the six generations of a single family that lived in the house from 1816 to 1983. The main takeaway? These people really loved their pork. In addition to annotated

sausage recipes and a mock table setting featuring a foam ham hock, Tudor Place displays the estate’s recently renovated smokehouse. This marks the first time the tiny house-shaped structure has been open to the public. “Ham would be on the table three times a day,” says Mandy Katz, communications officer for Tudor Place. “You can imagine the British rolling their eyes saying, ‘Those Virginians are crazy about pork!’ ” Inhabitants of Tudor Place relied on the smokehouse for a year-round supply of food in a pre-grocery-store era. The meat was often sourced from Seneca, Md., where the family

owned a plantation. Tudor House is holding a reception Thursday that will feature autumnal drinks, beer and wine as well as smokies and pulled pork sliders. Guests will get a tour of the Tudor House kitchen (where you’ll see a few of Martha Washington’s hand-medown bowls), service quarters and the smokehouse. Though the structure is no longer used to store pigs, you’ll see influence of another four-legged animal: a doggy door installed by later owners.

He’s comin’ out singin’ With ‘Swift,’ pianist Marco Benevento makes a key change MUSIC Keyboardist Marco Benevento is experiencing something new as he tours behind his latest record, “Swift.” “I’m looking out at the audience and seeing people mouth the words, and I’ve never seen that before,” he says. “Maybe I’ve seen some air piano but I’ve never seen anyone in the audience sing my own tunes.” That’s because, for the first time, Benevento is singing, too. Though his last album, 2012’s “TigerFace,” featured two songs with female guest vocals, “Swift” marks the moment Benevento, 37, can truly call himself a singer-songwriter. The experimental piano player’s previous four studio albums (and his work in old band the Benevento/Russo Duo) are (almost) entirely instrumental, a danceable mix of jazz, rock and electronic textures. On “Swift,” his core sound and

band — bassist Dave Dreiwitz and drummer Andy Borger — are the same, but eight of the nine songs feature Benevento’s voice and words. “I never really liked the sound of my own voice,” Benevento says. “That’s a typical problem with musicians. I have a lower voice and I’ve always been more attracted to the more screaming vocal. For me to embrace the baritone range of my voice was a big step.” Benevento uses his voice like

A team effort Collaboration was a big part of Marco Benevento’s “Swift,” which was named after producer (and Shins member) Richard Swift. Benevento also used friend (and former Ween singer) Aaron Freeman as a litmus test for his lyric writing. Freeman’s advice “really made me feel more like I was on the right path and it was OK to do what I was doing,” he says. R.G.

another instrument, washing it in reverb, doubling and sometimes tripling it. Where he previously used his piano to stand in for vocal melodies (listen to his 2009 covers record, “Me Not Me,” to hear how he mimics vocals with keys), he can now use his voice. “I’ve always been involved with and been a fan of the recognizable melodies,” he says. “Now I’m stepping up and writing words to it. Lyric writing is now a new thing for me, which I really like. I’m happy I opened that door. I’m kinda hooked on this process.” It’s also opened up his live show — he’s performing at Gypsy Sally’s on Friday — which is now about two-thirds instrumental. “In a heavy night of instrumentals, it’s quite refreshing to hear some vocals,” Benevento says. “The last couple of shows we’ve done, I’ve looked out and gone, Oh, right, people can sing along. This is great.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

This new space on the Hirshhorn’s third floor houses, from left, “Amerika — A Refuge” by Tim Rollins and K.O.S.; “Untitled” by Alighiero e Boetti; and “27K-No8-No26” by Hanne Darboven.

Connect the thoughts The Hirshhorn challenges viewers to find the links between distinct works of art EXHIBITS The Hirshhorn, a hollow cylinder on legs, looks like a spaceship, ready to blast off on a mission to spread modern art to other galaxies. That’s not so far from how curators Evelyn Hankins and Melissa Ho see the museum: as a conveyance for ideas through time and space. That’s the theme of the new permanent collection showcase, “At the Hub of Things: New Views of the Collection,” which opens Thursday and kicks off the museum’s 40th anniversary celebration. “We wanted to create a sort of futuristic communication hub, where ideas converge,” Hankins says. “Rather than show things in a strictly art-historical, chronological progression, we decided to make groupings that combine artists from different countries and different generations.” The result? A lively conversation between artworks from all

“The Dangerous Logic of Wooing” is made of Lycra, Styrofoam and rice.

over the world. In the past, the third floor of the museum devoted small rooms to individual artists. Now, it’s up to the viewer to figure out what the pieces in a given space have in common with one another. “It’s our hope that seeing these things in juxtaposition with each other and dipping into the information we provide will help people make connections,” Ho says.

The new exhibit was made possible by a $1 million renovation that restored the third floor to architect Gordon Bunshaft’s original vision of large rooms flowing into one another. Renovators tore out walls that broke the galleries into smaller spaces, removed the drop ceiling and got rid of the carpet. “The carpet precluded the possibility of showing postwar

sculpture, since most postwar sculpture sits directly on the ground,” Hankins says. Now, the third floor is perfect for oversized showstoppers, including a room-sized installation by Ernesto Neto, called “The Dangerous Logic of Wooing.” Sensuous, anthropomorphic forms hang from the ceiling, inviting you to touch them. (Don’t!) The reworked galleries offer those who are familiar with the collection an opportunity to reexperience old favorites in a new context, Hankins says. Newbies benefit, too, Ho adds. After all, everyone can play the “what do these things have in common?” game. “The collection really lends itself to a thematic installation,” she says. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS) Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Independence Avenue and Seventh Street SW; ongoing, free.

Return to form The reopening of the Hirshhorn’s third floor heralds a new series of public events. Upcoming highlights include: HIRSHHORN AFTER HOURS WITH ZOLA JESUS Unlike Lady Gaga, with

whom she’s often compared and contrasted, Zola Jesus produces actual art pop. Her new album, “Taiga,” gestures toward radiofriendliness with electro-dance beats, but don’t expect a rave around the Hirshhorn fountain. Fri., 8 p.m., $25. ‘DAYS OF ENDLESS TIME’: IN CONVERSATION WITH LAPHAM’S QUARTERLY Former Harper’s Magazine editor Lewis H. Lapham will discuss the Hirshhorn’s “Days of Endless Time” exhibit, which features artists who use video to capture moments of stillness.

Oct. 22, 7 p.m., free. CLAES OLDENBURG You’ve perhaps seen his giant typewriter wheel at the National Gallery of Art Sculpture Garden. The influential sculptor also has two works on display in “At the Hub of Things.” At this lecture, he’ll discuss how he transforms ordinary things into objects of wonder.

Choose your own meaning The new Hirshhorn exhibit, “At the Hub of Things: New Views of the Collection,” groups works of art around loose themes; that’s so viewers will make their own connections between pieces from different times and places. There are no wrong answers, of course. Test your art interpretation skills on the pieces below, then compare your thoughts to the curators’. S.D. What do these pieces have in common?

CATHY CARVER

Your thoughts:

Andy Warhol “Marilyn Monroe’s Lips”

Sol LeWitt’s sculpture and Andy Warhol’s painting illuminate connections between their respective movements — minimalism and pop art. One similarity is the repetition of standard units as a reference to mass production.

CATHY CARVER

The curators say:

Sol LeWitt “13/11”

What do these pieces have in common?

HIROSHI SUGIMOTO

Your thoughts:

The curators say:

Hiroshi Sugimoto

Anish Kapoor “At the Hub of Things”

LEE STALSWORTH

“Akron Civic, Ohio”

XX0165 2x1.5

When viewed head-on, Anish Kapoor’s sculpture looks like a black hole. From the side, you can see it’s a half-egg, capturing the paradox of fullness and emptiness in a single object. Hiroshi Sugimoto’s photograph touches on the same themes. The movie screen appears blank, but it’s actually the image of an entire movie, shot using a very long exposure.

‘Whiplash’ ain’t playin’ around Damien Chazelle amps up the agony in his tale about musical youths

“Oops. Um, I’m sorry about that. I had this beautiful idea and we got carried away with ourselves. Artists are prone to that kind of thing.” DANIEL McFADDEN

FILM It’s not that Damien Chazelle has anything against you personally. He just wants you to feel pain. As the writer-director of “Whiplash,” Chazelle has created one of the most emotionally brutal yet compulsively watchable films of the year. It follows Andrew (Miles Teller), a jazz drummer at a competitive conservatory who’s tapped by legendary conductor Fletcher (J.K. Simmons) to join the school’s top ensemble. Fletcher leads the group with a mix of verbal and emotional abuse, throwing in homophobia, sexism, anti-Semitism and racism for good measure — a crucible, he says, that can separate those who are merely great from those who are potential legends. “I guess I was trying to capture a little bit of what it felt like, to me, to be a musician playing at that level,” says Chazelle, who was a jazz drummer himself, though not at the conservatory level. “Just feeling kind of abject terror at every moment. I feel like most music movies take a softer approach to the art form,

which is valid, but there’s this whole other side. I love ‘Mr. Holland’s Opus,’ but this is like the twisted, evil brother of that.” For Chazelle, film and music exist along the same continuum. “I love the idea of using film language similarly to how musicians use music — combining images and sounds in a way that they create an emotional effect,” says the director, whose only other feature was 2009 jazz musical “Guy and Madeline on a Park Bench.” “A lot of movies take for granted the tools of the medium; they’re just vehicles for story. I think there’s a higher calling than that.”

So, while “Whiplash,” out Friday, is very verbal — Fletcher’s tirades are works of art woven with F-words and cruelty — the film has long stretches of wordlessness. Andrew spends hours in (and eventually moves into) a rehearsal room; Chazelle shoots his sessions almost entirely in claustrophobic close-up. “I wanted it to feel a little bit like prison,” he says. “Practicing is not normally fun. Sometimes people say they’re practicing, but they’re really just enjoying themselves and the instrument. That’s not real practice. Real practice means working on stuff

you’re not good at. Real practice is about butting your head against the wall repeatedly until you get it right.” Chazelle’s blend of music and visuals reaches its pinnacle in the final scene: a hypnotic, indescribably intense 10-minute drum solo. “I was really trying to sell to people who hate jazz,” Chazelle says. “To make a case for the art form as youthful and energetic, not the sort of rarified intellectual activity it’s painted as. That was always the point for me — it had to end with the music doing the heavy lifting.”

entertainment The folk singer’s new album has the energy of a man half his age

ALBUM REVIEW There’s no reason, of course, why an artist should slow down at 80. If the mind is still sharp, a singer-songwriter should be able to soldier on. “Popular Problems,” the new album from octogenarian Leonard Cohen, brims with all the wit and urgency of a man who shows no sign of slowing down. The

16

arrangements are simple and sparse, with some slow rhythm and blues urgency, but it is Cohen’s voice that surprises. The words are more spoken than sung, the delivery is gruff, and he sounds more bluesy than ever: not bitter, not angry, but deeply fatalistic, and at times, just raunchy. The defiant tone is set in “Slow,” which opens his 13th studio album with a paean to lovemaking (and possibly music) conducted at a languid pace. “It’s not because I’m old, and it’s not

what dying does, I always liked it slow, slow is in my blood,” he says, drawing out the last word. There is no sense that Cohen is running out of gas, or passion. If anything, he sounds more joyful than in earlier incarnations of his long career. The album closes with “You Got Me Singing,” a celebration of spirit that forecasts more work ahead: “You got me singing even though the world is gone, you got me thinking that I’d like to carry on,” he whispers. It sounds like a promise he intends to keep. GREGORY KATZ (AP)

@MINDYKALING echoes fan reactions to Shonda Rhimes’ cameo Tuesday night on Kaling’s sitcom, “The Mindy Project.” The “Grey’s Anatomy” and “Scandal” creator and ”How to Get Away With Murder” producer, right, had a guest part as a writer who has a secret passion and skill for playing beer pong.

“Ebola is threatening much of the world’s chocolate supply.” BILL THOMSON AT POLITICO.COM

reports on a side effect of the Ebola epidemic. The Ivory Coast shut its borders with Liberia and Guinea in an attempt to contain the deadly virus, raising concern that there will not be enough workers to harvest cacao this season, which could cause chocolate prices to rise. The Ivory Coast produces about 33 percent of the world’s total cacao, according to the U.N. The country has not yet reported any Ebola cases.

“And @shondarhimes was loved by all. She can come back whenever she wants, and why shouldn’t she? She has basically nothing to do.”

“The NFL is not a sports league; it’s an advertisement periodically interrupted by bouts of football.” CHRIS ZIEGLER AT THEVERGE.COM gets at why the NFL keeps finding

itself in hot water with sponsors over players’ behavior. On Sunday, ESPN reported that Chicago Bears quarterback Jay Cutler called the Microsoft Surface tablets used by the team “knockoff iPads.” And multiple players, including the Panthers’ Cam Newton, above, have recently defied a ban on sporting Beats-branded headphones anytime they could show up on television after the NFL signed a deal with Bose. The fine for ignoring the headphones directive? $10,000 per incident.

“A question for Michelle Obama: How many calories do you burn every time you ‘turn up’?!” @ALPHACAT, aka comedian and President Barack Obamaimpersonator Iman Crosson, got a response to this tweet on Tuesday. The White House posted a video on Vine of the first lady dancing with a turnip to Lil Jon’s “Turn Down for What” with the hashtag #TurnipForWhat.

“iPad Air 2 leak literally minutes after the Nexus announcement? That sounds incredibly coincidental to me.” @ABDOPHOTO was suspicious when details

surfaced confirming that Apple would announce a new iPad Mini and iPad Air today. The news came not long after Google announced its new offerings Wednesday: Lollipop, the latest of its Android operating system; the Nexus 9 tablet; and Nexus 6 smartphone, left.

Sudoku

MEDIUM

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may be fighting two conflicting impulses. Your best bet is to avoid a certain situation altogether if you can. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) If you can’t change the rules to suit your particular situation, then you must change your behavior to suit the rules, mustn’t you? SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A matter of taste brings you into conflict with someone who claims to know much more than you do — when in fact he or she does not. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A crisis of sorts demands resolution, but you may not be in a position to draft the final terms of reconciliation. Trust another.

WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You’re

getting bogged down in an issue that is best left for another day; it requires more time than you have right now.

WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You may be drifting away from center. Friends and loved ones have noticed a difference, though you have not. ARIES (March 21-April 19) You will want to go straight for the essentials, skipping those things that you suspect will be mere distractions. TAURUS (April 20-May 20)

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

You won’t be able to resist certain influences. Fortunately, they are the ones that are most consistent with your own personality.

TODAY: Trailing upper-level energy keeps our skies mostly cloudy throughout the day, and there is a 30-40 percent chance of an occasional shower. Light winds from the south-southwest come in at 5-10 mph. Even into the evening and overnight, we can’t rule out an isolated shower. Eventually, though, skies should see partial clearing.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Intolerance is likely to get you nowhere, so avoid it! You can find a way to accept what another is doing, can’t you? CANCER (June 21-July 22) Life is too short to complicate it with issues that cannot be resolved. Today, you can avoid at least two such issues — for now.

The Don’t Let Nickel Back group said that, since Kroeger loves it, fans should support the cause, “as it will make him very happy.” (EXPRESS) This is like seeing a rare, wild white Bengal tiger snuggle up to a Dalmatian.

Gaga pledges love to human male Lady Gaga and boyfriend Taylor Kinney had a commitment ceremony in New York recently, according to the Daily Star, a U.K. newspaper. (Media outlets that reported the story didn’t specify when this happened, though.) “Gaga wanted something visual,” an unnamed source told the Star. “They don’t have time to plan a wedding, so they decided they would have a small gathering to show the people they love most how committed they are to one another.” The source added that Gaga and Kinney plan to marry “properly” next year.

bit as good as Yelpers swear. Other standout dishes: white asparagus uttapam ($9), a pancakelike dish accompanied by coconut chutney, and the black cod ($28), marinated in dill, honey and star anise. R.S.

Rose’s Luxury ‘s no-reservations policy means diners often wait hours outside or, if there’s room, at the bar.

Beau Thai 1700 New Jersey Ave. NW; 202-536-5636 and 3162 Mount Pleasant St. NW; 202-450-5317, beauthaidc.com.

Like that kid in class who gets all the A’s, Beau Thai — known for its bright flavors and reasonable prices — keeps racking up praise. Zagat called the Shaw location a “neighborhood gem,” Express’ dining editor raved about the hot and spicy pork noodle bowl ($10) and Washingtonian praised the green curry chicken ($12). Note: The Shaw branch is slated to move to Seventh and P streets NW later this year. M.C.

In August, Bon Appetit named Rose’s Luxury the best new restaurant in America, confirming what D.C. residents have known since chef Aaron Silverman opened his Barracks Row restaurant in September 2013: This place is something special. A dinner at Rose’s starts with servers so nice you’re tempted to tell them to pull up a chair; continues with quirky touches like the vintage glassware dotted with gold mushrooms; and ends with a bellyful of American-meets-Asian-meets-Italian-meets-we’ve lost track dishes. (How does one categorize popcorn soup?) “Rose’s is a project, not just a restaurant,” Silverman says. “It’s a bigger picture thing. How many lives can we touch? How much positivity can we spread?” Turns out, a lot: Rose’s donates 25 cents of every meal to the World Food Program USA, totaling more than $10,500 in just over a year. H.S.

BEST SUSHI

Sushi Taro 1503 17th St. NW; 202-4628999, sushitaro.com.

Sushi Taro’s humble entrance — it appears to be the back door to a CVS — belies what’s inside: modern decor, impeccable service and highend sushi. The innovative a la carte menu, which changes frequently based on availability, has a devoted following. Recent sushi offerings include Tasmanian ocean trout ($7.25), live chocolate clam ($11.95) and crystal crab ($7.50). If you have around $160 to spare, get a reservation at the six-seat omakase counter (the restaurant takes them a month out), where diners let the sushi chefs guide their culinary adventures. R.S.

Indecisive diners should just back away from the menu and share the seven-item vegetarian sampler ($35 for dinner).

Barbecue enthusiasts, forget your unending debates over saucy wet ‘cue vs. the spicy dry kind: Smoke & Barrel serves both. The Adams Morgan beer and bourbon house is perhaps best known for its crispy smoked vegan wings, which executive chef Logan McGear admits “is something you normally don’t see at a barbecue spot.” He recommends pairing them with the jalapeno cheddar grits or the mashed potatoes.

&pizza knows you want your pizza a certain way, and right away. The local chain lets diners select from three kinds of dough (most locations offer two, but Bethesda adds a glutenfree variety), three kinds of cheese, eight sauces and a bar full of toppings to create their perfect pies, baked in moments in a super-fast oven. &pizza, which launched in 2012, has grown super-fast, too: Its owners plan to add up to nine more DMV locations to the six already open. The gajillions of possible pizza configurations mean an &pizza shop is a safe space for vegetarians and vegans — we even did the math. Start with the 28 vegetarian and vegan toppings. Combine those with the three doughs, eight vegetarian sauce options (or go sauceless), three cheeses and your old Algebra 2 textbook and you’re looking at 83,499,642,288 ways to stuff your face full of meatless goodness.

The past two years have seen the dawning of a doughnut scene in the city, with the opening of GBD, District Doughnut, and Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken, but our readers still prefer a 77-year-old classic.

TaKorean takorean.com, @takorean.

“The food truck game is really hard,” says TaKorean founder Mike Lenard. So at his Korean taco truck, he keeps it simple. Pick a filling, such as bulgogi (beef marinated in a sweet, spiced soybased sauce) or dak galbi (chicken marinated in sweet chili and soybean paste sauce). Add slaw and toppings, and that’s it. Plus, there are now brick-and-mortar locations at Union Market and Navy Yard. M.C. 2ND: Arepa Zone, arepazone .com, @arepazone. 3RD: Peruvian Brothers, peruvianbrothers.com, @perubrothers.

Earlier this year, Gabriela Febres was feverishly trying to figure out how to run her new food truck, Arepa Zone. “I actually bought ‘Running a Food Truck for Dummies,’” she admits. That didn’t prepare her and co-owner Ali Arellano for the immediate success of their Venezuelan fried corn pockets, stuffed with meats and cheeses in combinations like shredded beef, queso fresco, plantains and black beans.

It’s no surprise to see Ted’s Bulletin own this category for the second year in a row: Homemade pop tarts are the local chain’s most famous treat, and childfriendly classics — sloppy Joes, grilled-cheese sandwiches, tater tots — are on the main menu, making the children’s menu hardly necessary. Treats like Ted’s take on Hostess Sno-Balls (exclusive to its 14th Street location) will appeal to kids and nostalgic grown-ups alike. The milkshake list is so expansive — there’s even a PB&J flavor — parents may not even notice the boozy versions.

With 57 rotating drafts and another 100-plus bottled beers from around the world, walking into this Adams Morgan bar and restaurant is like entering a beer geek’s dream (or an indecisive person’s nightmare). For example, a recent draft list featured no less than 13 pumpkin beers, including DC Brau and Epic Brewing’s pumpkin porter, Fermentation Without Representation; Southern Tier’s Pumking; and Howe Sound’s Pumpkineater. The Black Squirrel also hosts some of the city’s best beer events and tap takeovers, which are routinely full of suds you can’t soak up anywhere else in the city.

Visit DC Brau to grab their limited-release double IPA, On the Wings of Armageddon, and you’ll find a line out the door. That’s one clue that D.C. can’t get enough Brau. The company, founded in 2009, increased production by nearly 50 percent this summer, but it’s still tough to keep up with demand. Every time they distribute to Pennsylvania and New Jersey, “we end up pulling back because that beer ends up being needed at home,” says co-founder Brandon Skall. “We’re still getting new people drinking our beer here.” R.G.

Second: “You can’t ask for a better people-watching spot.” Enjoy the bohemian outdoor seating area for as long as the weather permits — “until December, if we can,” Jones says.

— not to mention the annual World Stages international theater festival — the Kennedy Center showcases the full breadth of the lively arts. “We do everything from American Ballet Theater to zydeco,” says Max Woodward, vice president for theater programming. “If you want to see it, we’ve had it here at one point or another, or it’s coming. If we’ve left someone out, I’m sorry.” Sometimes multiple art forms get the mashup treatment: The new musical “Little Dancer,” for instance, stars a real-life ballerina and is based on a sculpture by Edgar Degas.

Even repeat visitors are unlikely to get bored, thanks to exhibits like the “Portraiture Now” series, which is constantly bringing in new works that go well beyond paintings or sculptures, such as collages, quilts, 3-D installations and the like. “People know when they come to the Portrait Gallery there’s always something surprising to see,” says director Kim Sajet.

But he’s a fan favorite because of that epic beard. Our city’s infatuation with the hirsute outfielder was best exemplified on a Tuesday in August when fans lined up five hours before game time hoping to be among the first 25,000 through the gates to get a Jayson Werth garden gnome.

Is D.C. turning into a baseball town? With the Nationals owning the best record in the National League for the second time in three years, there’s plenty of excitement surrounding the District’s baseball team. Then again, you still voted the Redskins into second place — even with their 3-13 record in 2013 — so it seems D.C. fans will never relinquish their love for the city’s NFL squad.

For the sixth year in a row, Bethesda-based Happy Hour Kickball has been selected as Express readers’ amateur sports league of choice, suggesting that many voters were never picked for any teams in middle school. HHKB’s perennial popularity stems from its blend of punny team names, postgame drinks, fundraising for charity, and even — occasionally — playing kickball.

D.C.’s branch of the Gothamist blog network aims to get readers chatting. “We write about things that people want to talk about over dinner or over drinks with friends,” Editor-in-Chief Sarah Anne Hughes says. That could be a guide to the city’s best pizza, a report of the D.C. Council’s latest goings-on or a story about a class on the history of punk. A.G.

BEST UNDERRATED TOURIST

The Bitches had a big year. Last December, the D.C.-based blog, which debuted in 2010, expanded its restaurant reviews, shopping picks and travel tips to New York audiences. But the Bitches — Becca Clara Love, above left, and Cori Sue Morris — insist success won’t dim their trademark candor: A recent review complains of a restaurant smelling like “a dusty old row house owned by an unkempt grandmother.” “We are always brutally honest,” Love says. “We’re bitches.” M.C.

The city’s first cycletrack — a bike lane protected from the road by a row of parked cars and bollards — is still one of the best. Running from Pennsylvania Avenue NW to V Street NW, it provides a convenient northsouth route to the many commuters who live around Columbia Heights and work downtown. Soon, it will be even better, extending northward all the way to Euclid Street NW. S.D. 2ND: Pennsylvania Avenue NW cycletrack. 3RD: L Street NW cycletrack.

ATTRACTION

The primary tourist draws at the 446-acre Arboretum are the 2,000-plus flowering cherry trees, the National Capitol Columns (pillars once attached to the U.S. Capitol) and the National Bonsai & Penjing Museum (catch the miniature trees in peak autumn color from Oct. 24 to Nov. 10). Just as interesting, if not as picturesque, are less-sexy exhibits such as the brand-new Grass Roots, a thorough study of turfgrass, i.e. the stuff on lawns and golf courses.

BEST POLITICAL CELEBRITY

Michelle Obama Maybe it’s the arms. Maybe it’s the garden. Maybe it’s her sense of fun — her dunk on a mini-hoop during the Miami Heat’s White House visit in January spawned a thousand GIFs. Whatever it is, we just love first lady Michelle Obama, even nearly six years into her reign. Will she have the staying power of a Jackie Kennedy or a Dolley Madison? So far, so good: This is the second time Express readers have named her Best Political Celebrity. What a legacy! M.C.

ALEX FINE (FOR EXPRESS)

This tranquil beach town, about two and a half hours from downtown D.C. by car, beat out Ocean City, Md., its bustling neighbor to the south. There’s plenty to do in Rehoboth besides beachy activities: Trendy restaurants line the streets, including family-friendly Salt Air and a molecular gastronomy hotspot named a(MUSE.). Baltimore Avenue is known for its LGBT-friendly hangouts. And the nearby Tanger Outlets will really help you make use of Delaware’s zero percent sales tax. M.C.

handcrafted home goods — with a particular bent toward kitchenware — so it’s just the place to find a knick knack for your hippest friend: Perhaps Turkish hand towels ($20) for decorators, or a flask bearing the face of Abe Lincoln ($32) for pretty much anyone. Gourmands will appreciate the hot chili spears from the local canners at Gordy’s Pickle Jar ($11) or the wood-barrelaged maple syrup ($18). This fall, Salt & Sundry heads to Northwest, with a new location just off 14th Street. L.M.

Miss Pixie’s Furnishings & Whatnot It’s hard to miss the shocking pink storefront that announces Miss Pixie’s presence on 14th Street. That’s good: Washingtonians really shouldn’t miss Miss Pixie’s. The home furnishings store stocks an ever-changing mix of vintage furniture, artwork and curios with a decidedly whimsical vibe; recent additions include a repurposed church pew ($295) and a champagne holder shaped like a top hat ($55). “D.C. can be a little conservative,” owner Pixie Windsor says. “This is a good outlet for people to throw a little spice into the equation.” R.S. 2ND: Frager’s Hardware, multiple locations; 202-543-6157, fragersdc.com. 3RD: Salt & Sundry, 1309 Fifth St. NE; 202-556-1866, shopsaltandsundry.com.

BEST PLACE TO SELL YOUR OLD CLOTHES

Current Multiple locations; currentboutique.com.

At Carmen Lopez’s second-hand boutiques, designs from Ann Taylor mingle with vintage pieces, high-fashion styles from Rebecca Taylor, Gucci and Chanel, and even a handful of new items. The diverse selections have one thing in common: “We’re looking for pieces your best friend would want to borrow,” says Lopez, who examines the quality, fabric and construction of the garments before putting them out for sale. Vintage-lovers should keep an eye out for high-quality (never polyester) dresses, blouses and purses from yesteryear, which are mixed in throughout the store. “We look for things that aren’t too costume-y that fit in with a modern lifestyle,” Lopez says. In exchange for your pre-loved, in-season item, Current will give you 50 percent of its price in cash or store credit when it sells. New this year: Current launched an online shop with free shipping for those who can’t make it into one of the four local brick-and-mortar boutiques. H.S.

BEST RECORD STORE

Smash Records 2314 18th St. NW; 202-387-6274, smashrecords.com.

It would be unfair to classify Smash Records as just a record store, considering its selection of vintage clothes, buttons and other ephemera. But vinyl is still why most of the shop’s regulars drop by. The rock-centric Smash has a wide selection of new punk and hardcore LPs, and a constantly changing used section stocked with classic rock, reggae, metal and more. More importantly, you’re likely to walk out with something you wanted, in good condition and for a fair price. They also have a selection of cassettes, in case you recently dusted off that old Walkman.

When 60 percent of your business comes from referrals, you’re probably doing something right. The Tailored Man’s VP of Operations, S. Daswani, whose uncles founded the custom suit shop in 1969, knows one strategy that’s working: “Sometimes we offer scotch tastings with fittings.” Their selection draws sharp-dressed men, as well: On an average day, the shop has 3,0005,000 fabrics at a range of prices, including some from prestigious brands like Holland & Sherry and Dormeuil.

If you’re after a spa experience that puts you in touch with the earth, you might as well get it at the first LEED-certified spa in the country, which Nusta claims to be. Many of Nusta’s services come with a natural twist, incorporating essential oils,

clays, algae, fruit and mysterious ingredients such as “apple stem cells.” If you’re looking to put your best feet — or hands — forward, Nusta also offers four manis and four pedis. On the simple end of the spectrum, the Maintenance Manicure ($35) will keep your nails clean and presentable, while the more intense Optimal Manicuire ($70) uses a fruit acid peel. B.M.
