page three Andres feeds storms’ victims PUERTO RICO Chef and restaurateur Jose Andres made his commitment to Puerto Rico clear this week when he said his nonprofit, World Central Kitchen, would keep feeding Puerto Ricans until the locals could again take care of themselves. “When we establish contact with a community, we maintain that contact,” Andres said during a phone interview from San Juan. “When we go to a place, we take care of that place until we feel it has the right conditions to sustain itself. That’s what a relief organization should be.” Andres, who has previously worked in disaster aid after the 2010 Haitian earthquake and more recently in Houston after Hurricane Harvey, landed in Puerto Rico on Sept. 25. He started working with chef Jose Enrique, whose eponymous San Juan restaurant was already preparing batches of sancocho — a Puerto Rican beef stew — for hungry residents. Soon, the chefs had fed a couple thousand people, and their outreach grew

D.C. chef’s nonprofit has provided 1 million meals in Puerto Rico
Chef Jose Andres, who arrived in Puerto Rico on Sept. 25, has worked with San Juan Mayor Carmen Yulin Cruz, left, to get food to hurricane victims.
“The reality here is very hard to escape. My question is, if we don’t do it, who’s going to do it?” CHEF JOSE ANDRES, on his efforts

rapidly from there. Nearly a month after Maria, Andres, World Central Kitchen and volunteers have reached a milestone in their #chefsforpuertorico campaign: As of Tuesday, they had prepared and delivered a million meals to residents. In comparison, the American Red Cross has served more than 540,000 meals and snacks (and distributed more than 534,000 relief supplies) in the weeks since hurricanes Irma and Maria
struck Puerto Rico, according to a spokeswoman for the organization. Assistance has come from a variety of sources, Andres said. Donors, large and small, have contributed millions of dollars to World Central Kitchen. Goya Foods loaned WCK its helicopter to fly food into remote regions. Homeland Security also has assisted with food distribution. Since he arrived in Puerto Rico, Andres has put much of his life on hold in Washington, where he oversees ThinkFoodGroup. He has been home only three or four days, he said, returning once after becoming dehydrated. Andres hopes that World Central Kitchen is demonstrating what kind of results a nonprofit with a “private-sector mentality” can achieve. He suspects that, in years to come, others will be examining “our successes and failures and how we did it.” Andres said the secret to his organization being able to go from 100 meals to a million was the chef community — the many volunteers who picked up a knife and got to it. A chef’s disposition, Andres said, is to know how to adapt to crisis. TIM CARMAN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Three dead in shooting at Md. business park U.S. court rules giant Md. cross unconstitutional
HARFORD COUNTY, MD. A man who was fired from a different job earlier this year for punching a colleague showed up for work at a countertop company as scheduled Wednesday and fired shots at five of his co-workers, authorities said. Three of them were killed and two critically wounded. Less than two hours later, Radee Labeeb Prince, 37, drove to a used car lot about 55 miles away in Wilmington, Del., and opened fire on a man with whom he’d had “beefs” in the past, wounding him, police said. The shooting rampage set off a manhunt along the Interstate 95 Northeast corridor before Prince was eventually captured Wednesday evening in Delaware. Police cruisers were stationed in medians, and overhead highway signs displayed a description of Prince’s sport utility vehicle and its Delaware license plate. The FBI assisted state and local authorities in the manhunt. “This is a person with no conscience,” Wilmington Police Chief Robert Tracy said. Authorities said it wasn’t clear why Prince open fired with a handgun on his colleagues. The rampage began Wednesday about 9 a.m. at the Emmorton Business Park in Edgewood, Harford County, Md., Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler said. Deputies arrived in four minutes but Prince had already fled. Kevin Doyle of Thornhill Properties said he was getting tools from his truck when he heard
Police chased Prince briefly after he left the car lot, but they lost him for several hours. Harford County police said he was later captured in Delaware by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives after his car was found unoccupied. Prince was fired from JPS Marble and Granite earlier this year and scared his previous employer so badly that the employer tried to get a restraining order in February. At one point, Prince’s former boss, Philip Siason, said: “He came to see me, cursed and yelled at me about unemployment benefits. I felt very threatened because he is a big guy and very aggressive on me.” A Harford County District Court judge denied the order, saying the case didn’t meet the required burden of proof.
PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY A federal appeals court on Wednesday cast doubt on the future of a towering cross-shaped monument that has marked a major intersection in Prince George’s County for decades. In a 2-1 ruling, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit said the 40-foot-tall memorial maintained with thousands of dollars in public funds “has the primary effect of endorsing religion and excessively entangles the government in religion.” The ruling sends the case back to the District Court and comes as public displays of religion have been challenged in courts throughout the country. The question for the 4th Circuit was whether the cross — which stands at Maryland Route 450 and U.S. Route 1 in Bladensburg — is a memorial to local men lost in World War I or an unconstitutional government endorsement of religion that should be removed from public land. Built in 1925 with funding from local families and the American Legion, the cross honors 49 Prince George’s County men who died in WWI. The challenge was brought by the American Humanist Association, a D.C.-based group that represents atheists and others. The group does not dispute that the monument is a memorial, but said a giant cross on government property sends a message of exclusion in violation of the First Amendment. ANN E.

screaming and saw three men running from the office park. The men told him someone was shooting and he asked if they had called 911. They said no, even though, Doyle said, they had phones in their hands. “I think they were just so scared, they didn’t [call 911]. They had a look of terror,” he said. The victims and the suspect worked for Advanced Granite Solutions, which designs and installs countertops, the company owner said. Prince had been an employee for four months, working as a machine operator, owner Barak Caba said. Caba was shaken and would not provide additional details.

Guilty pleas given in bribery scandal Former Prince George’s liquor board director admits to big payoffs PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY The former director of the Prince George’s County liquor board pleaded guilty in federal court Tuesday in a wide-reaching bribery scandal, admitting he facilitated thousands of dollars in payouts to elected officials and eventually tried to undermine an FBI investigation while he was wired as an informant. David Dae Sok Son, 41, of Bowie entered guilty pleas on counts of bribery, conspiracy and obstruction of justice in U.S. District Court in a case involving elected officials, lobbyists and shop owners trying to expand liquor sales in Prince George’s. Son, who was also a commissioner of the Prince George’s liquor board from 2005 to 2014, acted as a middleman between liquor store owners and elected
officials to influence state legislation related to Sunday liquor sales, the government said. When the FBI questioned Son in December, he then tried to tip off people being investigated about the probe, prosecutors said. Son also told a restaurant manager in Beltsville who had agreed to pay a $50,000 bribe for a liquor license that the authorities were investigating the manager. “Son pulled the manager into the walk-in cooler so the two could talk privately,” according to Son’s plea agreement. “Son told the manager that the ‘Feds’ were watching the manager and the manager should ‘skip town.’ ” The manager — who had paid roughly $40,000 in bribes — subsequently left the country, prosecutors said. Son is one of eight people charged in the federal probe. He faces up to 35 years in prison and is scheduled to be sentenc ed i n Ja nua r y. LYNH BUI (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Trump’s 12 days of silence POLITICS On Oct. 4, the day four U.S. Special Forces soldiers were gunned down at the border of Niger and Mali in the deadliest combat incident since President Trump took office, the commander in chief was lighting up Twitter with attacks on the “fake news” media. A president who revels in providing color commentary on the news said nothing about what happened in Niger for 12 straight days — until Monday in the Rose Garden of the White House, where he was asked by a reporter to explain his uncharacteristic silence. In his answer, Trump said in his defense that he had written personal letters to the soldiers’ family members. Then, Trump leveled false accusations at his predecessors, including former president Barack Obama, saying they never or rarely called family members of service members who were killed on their watch, when in fact they regularly did. According to a senior White House official who spoke on the condition of anonymity to comment on the internal process, the White House did not receive detailed information from the Defense Department about the four dead soldiers until Oct. 12, and that information was not fully verified by the White House Military Office until Monday. At that point, the official said,

Critics ask why it took so long to comment on four fallen soldiers
Myeshia Johnson weeps Tuesday over the casket of her husband, Sgt. La David Johnson, who was killed in Niger, upon his body’s arrival in Miami.
Trump was cleared to reach out to the four families — both in letters that were mailed Tuesday and in personal phone calls to family members that day. “He offered condolences on behalf of a grateful nation and assured them their family’s extraordinary sacrifice to the country will never be forgotten,” White House press secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said. Leon Panetta, who served as defense secretary and White House chief of staff under Democratic presidents, said Trump should have more quickly conveyed the “deepest regrets of the country for the families that lost their loved ones.” He put some of the responsibility for Trump’s slow response on his staff. “Somebody screwed up here, OK?” Panetta said. “You don’t let that amount of time pass when our men and women in uniform

‘I guess it hurts anyway’ In a call with Myeshia Johnson, the widow of Sgt. La David T. Johnson, who was killed in Niger, President Trump told her, “He knew what he was signing up for, but I guess it hurts anyway,” according to Rep. Frederica S. Wilson, D-Fla. Wilson was riding in a car with Johnson when Trump called and heard the conversation on speakerphone. In a Twitter post Wednesday, Trump insisted Wilson “totally fabricated” her account, but the fallen soldier’s mother, Cowanda Jones-Johnson, said she was also present for the call and that Trump “did disrespect my son.” (TWP)
have been killed.” Steve Schmidt, a Republican strategist and former adviser to Bush and McCain, said he was surprised by Trump’s 12-day silence on the Niger attack.
“There is no issue too small for him to comment on,” Schmidt said. “He tweets at all hours of the morning and night on every conceivable subject. He has time to insult, to degrade, to demean always. But once again, you see this moral obtusity in the performance of his duties as commander in chief.” Still, the brother of one of the fallen soldiers, Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright, 29, said he and his family have not been bothered by Trump’s comments. William Wright said Tuesday afternoon in an interview that his parents were expecting a phone call from the president soon and that his family would consider it a “great honor” to speak with him. If Trump had called earlier, Wright said, the family would not have been ready for it. “It’s not something we’re upset by, and it’s not something we are offended by,” Wright said. “This is a devastating experience to go through, and we have been blessed with a lot of support. It’s our hope that everyone can rally around the families of the fallen soldiers.” Panetta said each president has his own way of expressing condolences. “The most important test is whether it comes from the heart,” he said. “It’s not so much whether he decides to do a letter or a phone call. You don’t do this by the numbers. You do it by what you think can most appropriately reflect the nation’s concern.” PHILIP RUCKER AND DAN LAMOTHE (THE WASHINGTON POST)
OFFER TO A GRIEVING FATHER
The amount President Trump offered a grieving military father during a personal phone call, the father told The Washington Post, money he said he has not received. Chris Baldridge, the father of Army Cpl. Dillon Baldridge, said that Trump called him a few weeks after his 22-year-old son and two fellow soldiers were gunned down by an Afghan police officer in a suspected insider attack June 10. White House spokeswoman Lindsay Walters said in a statement Wednesday, “The check has been sent.” (TWP) Trump tells group of senators: U.S. faces ‘once in a lifetime opportunity’ on taxes
Sessions mum on what Trump said of Comey POLITICS Attorney General Jeff Sessions rebuffed repeated requests from Democratic lawmakers Wednesday to detail his conversations with President Trump on the firing of FBI Director James Comey in May. At a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, Democratic senators peppered Sessions with questions on Comey, Trump and the investigation into possible coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia during the 2016 presidential race. But for the most part, Sessions declined to say anything of real substance. He would not say what Trump told him before Comey’s firing, offering only that the president asked for his advice in writing. He said he has not been interviewed by special counsel Robert Mueller III, who is leading the probe that is exploring whether Trump obstructed justice leading up to Comey’s removal. Sessions lambasted the former FBI director, saying he did not believe “it’s been fully understood the significance of the error that Mr. Comey made” in the investigation of Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server. But Sessions would not say whether Trump, in deciding to remove Comey, mentioned the Russia case in their discussions. Sessions also would not say if he was aware of a draft letter detailing reasons that Comey should be removed. MATT ZAPOTOSKY, SARI HORWITZ AND DEVLIN BARRETT (TWP)

nation+world RAQQA, SYRIA U.S.-backed Syrian forces removed land mines and cleared roads in the northern Syrian city of Raqqa on Wednesday, a day after commanders said they had driven the Islamic State from its de facto capital. Mustafa Bali, spokesman for the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, said preparations were underway for a formal declaration of the city’s liberation. The SDF said Tuesday that military operations in Raqqa had ended and that its troops had taken full control of the city. The
U.S.-led coalition cautioned that clearing operations would continue, saying about 100 militants might still be hiding in the city. On Wednesday, the spokesman for the coalition, Col. Ryan Dillon, tweeted that 95 percent of the city was under control. The White House said the imminent liberation of the Islamic State stronghold of Raqqa will open a new phase in the Syrian conflict. Spokeswoman Sarah Huckabee Sanders blamed the Syrian government for hindering previous efforts to free Raqqa. The U.N. refugee agency said

CALIFORNIA As firefighters gain on wildfires burning in Northern California’s wine country, the many thousands who lost their houses, condos and apartments in those fires will have to find a new place to live in one of the toughest, most expensive housing markets in the nation. The fires that swept through parts of seven counties were the deadliest and most destructive series of blazes in California history. At least 42 people were killed and 6,000 homes destroyed. Crews made excellent progress Tuesday night and Wednesday
morning, setting controlled burns to deprive wildfires of added fuel, said Daniel Berlant, spokesman for the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, also known as Cal Fire. He said cooler weather and the lack of wind helped. “We’re hoping that Mother Nature will continue to cooperate with us,” he said. “Increased moisture in the air and potential rainfall, all of those are welcome signs.” Also on Wednesday, Sonoma County increased its death count to 23 when officials found another body in Santa Rosa. Officials released no details. Keeping positive is hard when facing the reality of starting from scratch, said John De Groot, whose home in Santa Rosa burned down along with a

Twitter vows new crackdown on abuse, hate TECHNOLOGY Twitter is vowing to crack down further on hate speech and sexual harassment, days after CEO Jack Dorsey said the company is not doing enough to protect its users. The company has spent the past two years trying to clamp down on hate and abuse on its generally freewheeling service. Dorsey echoed concerns of many users who say Twitter hasn’t done enough to curb abuse. Others worry that it’s muzzling free speech. In an email shared on Tuesday, the company’s head of safety policy outlined the proposed new guidelines. The changes are not yet final. Twitter said it would immediately and permanently suspend any account it identifies as being the original poster of “non-consensual nudity,” including so-called “creep shots” of a sexual nature taken surreptitiously. Previously, it resulted only in a temporary suspension. It said it would also develop a system allowing bystanders on Twitter to report unwanted exchanges of sexually charged content, whereas in the past it relied on one of the parties involved in the conversation to come forward. It also said it would take new action on hate symbols and imagery and “take enforcement action against organizations that use/have historically used violence as a means to advance their cause.” BARBARA ORTUTAY (AP)
SOMALIA Somali intelligence officials shared a detailed account of the country’s deadliest attack, while thousands marched Wednesday in Mogadishu in a show of defiance against the extremist group blamed for Saturday’s bombing that left more than 300 dead. A crowd of mostly young men and women gathered at a Mogadishu stadium and shouted slogans against al-Shabab, which has long targeted the seaside city but has not commented on the attack. At least three people were injured after security forces opened fire while trying to disperse protesters marching toward the attack site, police Capt. Mohammed

Thousands protest Somalia’s ‘9/11’
Protesters on Wednesday march near the scene of Saturday’s truck bomb attack in which more than 300 people were killed in Mogadishu, Somalia.
Hussein said. Some people in Somalia have called the bombing their “9/11,” asking why one of the world’s deadliest attacks in years hasn’t drawn more global attention. A c c ord i n g to a S o m a l i
intelligence official investigating the blast, an overloaded truck covered with a tarpaulin approached a security checkpoint outside Mogadishu early Saturday. The truck aroused the suspicions of soldiers who ordered the
driver to park and get out. The driver made a phone call to someone in the capital and passed the phone to the soldiers to speak to a well-known man who vouched for the truck, the official said. Once through the checkpoint, the truck raced through another checkpoint, where soldiers opened fire and flattened one of its tires. The driver continued before stopping on a busy street and detonating. The massive bomb was meant for Mogadishu’s heavily fortified international airport, where several countries have their embassies, according to officials. The man who vouched for the truck has been arrested, an official said. ABDI GULED (AP)

Second judge rules against latest version of travel ban A federal judge in Maryland early Wednesday issued a second halt on the latest version of President Trump’s travel ban, asserting that Trump’s own comments convinced him that the directive was akin to an unconstitutional Muslim ban.

Chuang, issuing a less complete halt than his counterpart in Hawaii did a day earlier, blocked the administration only from enforcing the directive on those with a “bona fide” relationship with a person or entity in the U.S. (TWP)

The Portuguese minister in charge of emergency services resigned Wednesday after 106 people were killed in wildfires this year in the nation.

She repeated her request after 42 people died last weekend in wildfires. (AP)
Contrary to perceptions, the IRS still appears to be enforcing the unpopular Obama-era requirement that most people carry health insurance or risk a fine. The agency says on its website it will reject electronic returns for tax year 2017 that don’t specify if the taxpayer had health insurance. That insurance requirement, known as the individual mandate, is a main target of GOP efforts to repeal “Obamacare.” (AP)

Jonathan Allen made an instant impact on the defensive line before he suffered a foot injury.
COACH’S LAWSUIT
Allen lost for the year Lisfranc sprain will sideline Redskins’ first-round pick for the rest of his rookie season NFL For the second straight year, Washington’s first-round draft pick will see his season cut short because of an injury. Rookie defensive end Jonathan Allen is expected to miss the rest of the season with a Lisfranc sprain, according to multiple people with knowledge of the situation Wednesday. The Lisfranc joint stabilizes the middle of the foot. Allen suffered the injury during the second half of Sunday’s 26-24 victory over the 49ers at FedEx Field. Allen left the locker room in a walking boot, and coach Jay Gruden said initially that he hoped Allen would be sidelined just three to four weeks. But Gr ude n voic e d h i s
optimism before Allen received further evaluation by Dr. Robert Anderson. The timeline was extended after that examination. Allen has been a vital piece along the line in his first season, particularly with his interior pressure in the nickel package. Pro Football Focus credited Allen with three sacks, two hits and eight hurries. His official NFL statistics list only one sack. Allen was also part of a defense ranked eighth against the run, allowing just 88 yards per contest. “He is a young player, but he plays it like a veteran,” Gruden said Monday. “He has got great fundamentals. He’s got a great idea of run/pass, how to get off blocks. He has got strong hands and he was getting a pretty

consistent pass-rush push.” With the injury to Allen, the 17th overall pick this year, Washington has seen its last two first-round picks play just seven games as rookies.
Wide receiver Josh Doctson, the team’s 2016 first-round pick, dressed for two games last year and was eventually placed on injured reserve because of a lingering Achilles tendon injury. Allen, 22, was considered by some as the best defensive line prospect in the draft. While many draft analysts predicted the Alabama product would be a top-five pick, Allen slid down to the Redskins because of mild arthritis in his surgically repaired shoulders. T he Redsk i ns w i l l c ontinue to rely on Matt Ioannidis, Stacy McGee and Terrell McClain at defensive end, and second-year lineman Anthony Lanier, 24, will receive an opportunity to make his first NFL appearance this year.

Louisvlle has a longtime relationship with the company, but Pitino denied involvement in paying recruits. “Coach Pitino swears that he had nothing to do with, and no knowledge of, the Adidas conspiracy,” Pitino’s attorney said, adding that the coach is seeking unspecified compensatory and punitive damages.

USA GYMNASTICS Two-time Olympic medalist McKayla Maroney said she was molested for years by a former USA Gymnastics team doctor, abuse she said started when she was 13 and continued for the rest of her competitive career. Maroney, 21, posted a lengthy statement on Twitter on Wednesday that alleged abuse against Dr. Larry Nassar, who spent three decades working with athletes at USA Gymnastics but now is in jail in Michigan awaiting sentencing after pleading guilty to possession of child pornography.
Nassar also is awaiting trial on separate criminal sexual conduct charges and has been sued by more than 125 women alleging abuse. Nassar has pleaded not guilty to the assault charges. Maroney said the abuse began at a Team USA training camp at the Karolyi Ranch outside of Houston. She said Nassar told her she was receiving “medically necessary treatment he had been performing on patients for over 30 years.” Maroney, who won a team gold and an individual silver on vault as part of the “Fierce Five” at the

Maroney says Nassar later visited her in her hotel room, where he molested her yet again. “I thought I was going to die that night,” Maroney wrote. Maroney said she decided to come forward as part of the “#MeToo” movement on social media. She called for change, urging other victims to speak out and demanding organizations “be held accountable.” WILL GRAVES (AP)

second D.C.-area Sugar Factory (a smaller Union Station location opened in 2015), but Disick says he thinks this addition will bring the “sweet side of things” to the area. “Obviously there’s a lot of tourism here, so it’ll be fun for
people,” he adds. The 200-seat location boasts that same over-the-top, eccentric menu that draws people — and their cameras — to the restaurant: a candy-themed cocktail list, fancy crepes, enormous
burgers, “insane” milkshakes (one comes with a lollipop, a Sugar Daddy candy and a slice of cheesecake piled on top) and a $99 King Kong Sundae (topped with sparklers). And don’t forget the chain’s signature two-serving “goblets” — 60-ounce concoctions of fruit juice, liquor and candy served over dry ice for a smoky effect. It’s all dying to be Boomeranged and filtered for your followers to marvel at. So what’s Disick’s dish of choice? “I always get this one salad.

That’s wise, because “Serenity” was written and directed by Joss Whedon, whose penchant for killing beloved characters suddenly and tragically is VERY PRESENT HERE. Arlington Cinema
Here’s a fact that will help you the next time you’re on “Jeopardy!” Joan Fontaine is the only actor to win an Oscar for acting in a Hitchcock film. You can see her award-winning performance — in “Suspicion” — as part of an AFI Silver series honoring Fontaine, who would have turned 100 on Sunday. First up is a double feature of “Ivy” and “Born to Be Bad” (Sun., 11:30 a.m., $10), followed in November with “Suspicion,” “Letter From an Unknown Woman” and the gothic films “Jane Eyre” and “Rebecca.” Another fun fact: She was Olivia de Havilland’s little sister.

Singer-keyboardist Marco Benevento is a vinyl junkie: He collects 45s and tours with a turntable, records and a ’50s-era tube amp. “We listen to records backstage when you have all those hours to do nothing,” he says of his dance/rock/jazz trio. Ahead of a gig with Moon Hooch, he shared three songs that popped into his head. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)
1
‘Why Can’t We Live Together’
Timmy Thomas
“It’s this one dude at an organ with the drum machine going and he’s singing and playing everything,” Benevento says of this 1972 track sampled on Drake’s “Hotline Bling.” ”The way he sings just hits your heartstrings.”

‘Twanging My Thang’
Travis Wammack
“This is our anthem,” Benevento says of the 1970 rarity, which he recently bought on 45 for $1. “It gets you in the mood to play a show. … It’s just about dancing and getting down and soulful s---.”

‘People Everywhere (Still Alive)’
Khruangbin
“I just think the vibe of that band is just so smooth and so unique,” Benevento says of the modern, groove-oriented Texas band he recently met at a festival. “I love instrumental music, I love trios and I love girl bass players.”

Just a grateful dad and son Phil and Grahame Lesh share a band — and an even stronger bond
JOHN R WISDOM
MUSIC When Grahame Lesh decided to enter his high school talent show in 2003, he asked his dad, Grateful Dead bassist Phil Lesh, if he’d join him to perform the band’s hippie-era anthem “Sugar Magnolia.” “I was so touched and so proud that he invited me to play with him,” Phil says. Phil, 77, and Grahame, 30, now play together regularly, anchoring the Terrapin Family Band, Phil’s latest Dead-centric project that grew out of regular gigs at Terrapin Crossroads, the family’s bar, restaurant and music venue in San Rafael, Calif. “People ask me what it’s like to play music with my son and I say, ‘It’s the best thing in the whole universe.’ I can’t even describe it,” Phil says. “A lot of times when we’re together we’re not so much like father and son as we are just a couple of musicians.” Grahame, for his part, has tried to come at music in his own way. A self-taught guitarist who picked up the six-string at 13, Grahame grew up playing in garage bands and learning metal riffs. He now leads the country rock band Midnight North, which gigs weekly at Terrapin Crossroads and tours the country. Grahame didn’t start pursuing music seriously until the venue opened in 2011, and he had a nonmusic job until a few years ago. Phil and his wife, Jill, encouraged Grahame and his younger brother, Brian, to play music but never pushed it as a career path. “By the time I started picking up guitar they were like, yeah, as long as you do something [musical] we’re cool with it. … It doesn’t have to be your job or anything,” Grahame says. “I’m sure they’re happy that it is.” “It’s so delightful that it turned

out the way it did,” Phil says. “Everything he’s done has been entirely on his own effort. It was like a matter of policy in a way. I didn’t want to push. I wanted them to be who they were. I’m so glad it didn’t a skip a generation.” Grahame grew up around music, touring with the Dead as a child and, after Jerry Garcia died, Phil Lesh and Friends. He actually saw his first show during the Dead’s 1986 New Year’s Eve run in Oakland, Calif., when he was just 2 weeks old. “When he got older, he would sometimes sit on a road case behind Jerry and I think he might have internalized that heavily,” Phil says. When Terrapin Crossroads opened, Grahame started playing Dead songs regularly for the

first time with his friends and his dad. The Terrapin Family Band has been through a few permutations but settled into its core lineup — with drummer Alex Koford, keyboardist Jason Crosby and guitarist Ross James — last year. They play a mix of Dead songs and classic rock covers,
and even do an original, “Galilee,” that Brian wrote. The band has become Phil’s most consistent group in years and has reinvigorated him enough that he’s slowly returning to touring after mostly playing shows in California and New York since the Dead’s farewell concerts in 2015. The Terrapin Family Band’s first real tour begins Wednesday at The Anthem, with special guests Robert Randolph and Nicki Bluhm sitting in. “This is pretty close to the ideal of the Grateful Dead, of each musician being like a finger on a hand, and it blends together really well,” Phil says. “I think we’re playing a more energetic rendition of these songs than a lot of bands do these days, more than the Dead
did, other than certain eras,” Grahame says. Maybe Phil is just a proud dad, but he’s constantly impressed by Grahame’s approach to music. “The way he thinks about music and the way he strings his thoughts together, he really has a feeling for the long line,” Phil says. “So he’s thinking ahead and at the same time he’s open to the moment when you throw all the rules out the window and you just wail. It is so enjoyable for me to play with somebody like that. If I had my druthers I’d play with him every time. Because of the way he plays. But it makes it even better because he’s my son.” RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)

weekendpass Q+A | MARIA ‘MASHA’ ALYOKHINA
She wants you to join the fight
The physical violence in the play, is it real? Do you and the other actors actually get hurt? This play is not conventional theater. It’s very physical theater, and it’s actually torture itself on the stage. We are showing torture to give a feeling of how it is to be inside this system, and how to overcome this system as well — the prison system in particular, but unfreedom in general. That must be very uncomfortable for the actors and the audience. Yes, torture is uncomfortable. This is reality. This is the only way to show truth. How do you escape totalitarian
systems? I think freedom does not exist if you are not fighting for it every day. I think in the United States what you have now regarding Trump and the whole conservative factor is, it’s not the face of the U.S., actually. It’s just the result of apathy and indifference, which are my personal enemies. Because sometimes people think that democracy will stay with them forever and humanity and human rights — all the things which were achieved in 20th century — will stay with us, and it’s kind of done. But it’s not done. If you do not fight for it, it will disappear. And here [at] our performance, our play, we will show the example of what will happen if you lose it.
Maria “Masha” Alyokhina says the biggest threat to freedom and democracy is apathy.
ALBERT WIKING
A member of the Russian punk group Pussy Riot, Maria “Masha” Alyokhina spent nearly two years in a Siberian prison camp for singing a song in a Russian Orthodox Church that accused religious authorities of collaborating with the KGB and asked the Virgin Mary to drive away Vladimir Putin. She continued her protests while imprisoned, though the price was forced gynecological examinations, sleep deprivation and other human rights violations, she has said. Since her release, Alyokhina has continued to be a thorn in Putin’s side, staging protests at the Sochi Olympics and fighting for the release of Ukrainian filmmaker Oleg Sentsov. Most recently, she’s written a book about her experiences, “Riot Days,” which she’ll talk about Tuesday at Politics and Prose. While in the area, Alyokhina will also appear in a play, “Burning Doors,” that interweaves scenes from political prisoners’ lives with quotes from Fyodor Dostoevsky and Michel Foucault. Performed in Russian and Belarusian with English subtitles, the play includes actual physical violence and meta-commentary — including a mid-play Q&A with Alyokhina. We had our own questions for her. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)
Why do you make political art instead of engaging in straightup activism? Political movements and political activism usually say how you should do things, but political art is not about saying, “This is the one way of solving problems.” It’s about asking uncomfortable questions, and these questions are actually the only way to go forward and to make progress. What do you hope people get out of reading your book? I want to show people how to fight via my example. I want to see more actions in the world, especially now. How do you fight for freedom when imprisoned in actual
prison or in a totalitarian regime? I said “no” to those who thought that they have an absolute power to judge people, to violate people. When you find your internal power, internal freedom to make a different choice, I think this is important. In prison, don’t you end up forced to do what the guards want, regardless of how much you fight? I think it’s a question of being prisoner or not being prisoner. Of having freedom of choice or not having it. I think the decisions which are made there are the most important decisions, because if you lose yourself there, you will never forget it and you
will always be a prisoner. You’re still living in Moscow and protesting the Russian government. Are you subject to harassment or surveillance? If you are doing activism in Russia, of course you will be followed and they will read all your mails and messages and so on. Have you considered moving? No, I don’t want to move. It’s my country. It’s they who should move.

best of /express picks BEST VEGAN PLACE FOR CARNIVORES
Shouk 655 K St. NW
Too many vegan restaurants fall victim to the same problem: They try to mimic meat with mock substitutes that can turn off your meateating friends. What I love about Shouk, the Middle Eastern-inspired fast-casual eatery that opened in Mount Vernon Square last year, is how chef Dennis Friedman’s dishes don’t pretend they’re something they’re not. Take the incredibly popular Shouk Burger. Instead of a prefab veggie patty meant to trick you into thinking it’s the real thing, Shouk uses a mixture of chickpeas, black beans, lentils, mushrooms, cauliflower and beets — most of which you can actually see when you take a bite. It’s shoved into a warm pita and topped with addictive tomato bursts, pickled turnip, arugula, charred onion and tahina sauce. Like the rest of Friedman’s dishes — rice and lentil bowls, salads and polenta fries — the burger works because it makes real veggies the star of the show. It’s enough to make you consider going vegan full time. RUDI GREENBERG

8727 Colesville Road, Silver Spring
Cut through the lobby of the DoubleTree in downtown Silver Spring, walk past the door to the garage and take a few steps down into Sergio Ristorante. Below the hotel, Luigi Toni keeps his father’s place humming, playing host, waiter and manager. The same waiters who have been charming patrons for years are still here, wearing crisp white shirts and ties and calling your date “bella” as they refill the wine. (Getting pleasantly drunk is likely, because a liter of house white costs $20.) The menu is two pages of Italian-American classics printed on laminated Microsoft Word documents, and it hasn’t changed either. The stuffed pork chop ($18) is bursting with spinach and gorgonzola and draped in brandy cream sauce. House-made pastas such as shrimp ravioli and ham and pea tortellini are soft and floating in pools of butter and cream. Romantic, cozy and dripping with nostalgia, this is the kind of place where everyone applauds as a grandma blows out her birthday candles. GABE HIATT
BEST PLACE TO INTRODUCE YOUR KID TO RAMEN
Kanji-Kana 1018 Vermont Ave. NW, third floor
Kanji-Kana may be one of the most kid-friendly restaurants that doesn’t even have a children’s menu. Poster frames filled with Pokémon cards hang on the walls while cheerfully unintelligible anime runs silently on the TV. The ramen portions are large — at least until you give your little angel a bite of the noodles and realize you have to fend off the kid with your chopsticks for the rest of your lunch. If your spawn has that charming childlike need to never have any foods touching ever, go for a bento box. Options include nonthreatening proteins like chicken teriyaki or shrimp tempura, accompanied by rice, a spring roll and other goodies (and they’ll drop in a packet of the Japanese cookie candy Pocky, which makes a great reward for trying one bite of the seaweed salad).

Foreign fruits often fall flat as ice cream flavors. They end up generically sweet and tasting nothing like the tropics or as an overly icy sorbet. But the product at Islands Tropical, formerly the Tropical Ice Cream Cafe, remains potently fruity and creamy. That’s because the shop serves up its ice cream from Rockville’s York Castle Ice Cream Company, which specializes in Jamaican flavors done right. Velvety consistency is a constant in classic flavors — the chocolate is as good as any in the D.C. area — and a welcome surprise in exotic fare such as guava, mango, passion fruit, lychee and soursop, made from the slightly sweet, slightly funky tropical fruit. It’s a pain to get into the tiny parking lot near Tropical — coming from D.C. means waiting for a U-turn at a congested stretch of Georgia Avenue — and once you get in, spaces are limited. Few dare the trek, so the reward for your trouble is a perpetually short wait for ice cream — or Tropical’s jerk wings and Jamaican beef patties, if you’re so inclined. G.H.
BEST BAR TO UNEXPECTEDLY MAKE FRIENDS
Big Chief 2002 Fenwick St. NE
There’s something about Big Chief, the cavernous New Orleansthemed bar in Ivy City. Maybe it’s that the warehouse-like space is so massive (7,000 square feet!) that it rarely feels annoyingly crowded. Maybe it’s the cheap tallboys — or the fact that most people come in having already imbibed at one of Ivy City’s distilleries. Whatever the case, if you start playing one of the games at Big Chief’s back bar, you WILL make friends. This is no place for quiet conversation or avoiding eye contact with other patrons — this place is for arguing loudly over the rules of pingpong with a total stranger. You’ll likely get challenged playing a giant version of Connect Four while you’re there (please don’t play against me; I will absolutely lose). Once, an absolute angel tried to help me hold up a basketball player-size Jenga tower when I was nearing defeat. You can keep your $14-a-cocktail spots — I’d rather have a place that applauds when a giant Jenga tower comes crashing down around me. LORI McCUE

Tucked between the University of Maryland campus and a shopping center with a bustling liquor store and pupuseria is a little path into the woods that leads to Lake Artemesia, a beautiful man-made lake I like to call a hidden gem in Prince George’s County. I got into running thanks to this trail, which zigzags through what feels like a forest from a “Twilight” movie and under Metro train tracks before opening up at the 38-acre lake. The trail loops around the water and is studded with wooden gazebos, perfect for when you want to catch your breath and take in the scenery, snap a photo for Instagram or leave your mark and carve your name into the beams. An unexpected bonus: You’ll almost certainly have runins with deer, geese and beavers on the trail, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll set a new personal record when you head at full speed in the opposite direction.

BEST PLACE TO SEE A FUTURE (OR CURRENT) NETFLIX COMEDY STAR
Underground Comedy undergroundcomedydc.com
With Underground Comedy, Sean Joyce has created a D.C. comedy empire. The 4-year-old independent comedy production company, which hosts stand-up shows in at least six venues, has become popular among national touring comedians, and D.C. gets to reap the rewards. Most of the shows are either in bars, like The Big Hunt’s tiny satanic-themed basement, or at Drafthouse Comedy downtown. Over the years, Joyce, a stand-up himself, has built a network of comedians who want to play his shows, and there’s always a good chance you’ll see a rising star who’s about to break out big (or one of the top talents in the District). Established comics seem to like the looseness and intimacy Joyce fosters. Michael Che worked his recent Netflix special at The Big Hunt before filming it; so did Rory Scovel. Hannibal Buress, Patton Oswalt, Judah Friedlander and Louis C.K. have all dropped in for surprise sets. That’s the magic of an Underground Comedy show: You never know who might show up, but you can guarantee it will be funny. R.G.

The Fountain of Light and Water Bartholdi Park, 245 First St. SW
A towering stowaway from the gilded age, the Fountain of Light and Water presides over a corner of the U.S. Botanic Garden that’s hemmed in by major thoroughfares and fortresses of federal bureaucracy. Ignore the traffic noise and gaze upon the trio of graceful Grecian maidens who support the upper tiers of the fountain. At the very top, a burbling crown sends water cascading to the basin below the maidens’ feet. Fish and turtles expel additional sprays of water that are illuminated at night by lanterns that predate electricity — once run on gas, they have since been fitted with energy-efficient bulbs. Bought for half its estimated value by the federal government in 1877, the fountain was designed by French sculptor Frederic Auguste Bartholdi (the namesake of the pocket park in which it sits), who’s best known for designing a lil’ lady named the Statue of Liberty.

On a recent Friday afternoon before a concert at Jiffy Lube Live, I stopped at Ocelot, which makes some of my favorite beer in the region. I don’t get out to the brewery very often because it’s near Dulles International Airport, and from my apartment in Shaw, that might as well be Dallas. But that day, there was something tranquil and relaxing about sitting on the modest patio and drinking a flight of music-referencing IPAs (the brewery specializes in a wide range of hoppy beers — my favorite style — and rarely brews the same one twice). It’s probably because going to Ocelot feels like an escape from the city. Located in a nondescript office park, Ocelot’s brewery is just a big open space with board games, a cool mural, a beautifully decorated chalkboard menu and live music on most weekends. By the time we left and I grabbed a bottle of beer to go, I had convinced myself that living in the Virginia suburbs wouldn’t so bad if it meant I would be closer to Ocelot. R.G.

Landmark’s theater at the Atlantic Plumbing building in Shaw allows you to pick your seats when you buy your tickets, so there’s no need to rush to the theater — but you’ll still want to get there early. The bar up front is a place where you could easily find yourself spending a whole night — or at least an hour to pregame your movie. Snag one of the insanely comfortable leather lounge chairs or grab a seat at the wide bar, which offers a nice beer list, wine and mixed drinks. (Movie-themed cocktails are a corny idea, but just trust me and order the vodka and ginger-heavy I’ll Have What She’s Having.) And unlike other Landmark Theatre locations, this one doesn’t just trade in Independent Spirit Award nominees: They tend to keep at least one film in rotation that goes down better with a few cocktails. I’ll never regret seeing “Bad Moms” while several gin and tonics in. L.M.

Bardo 25 Potomac Ave. SE
At the beer garden known as Bardo, it’s easy to imagine that you’re toasting the crumbling remains of a once-great civilization. Perhaps that’s due to the chain-link fence protecting Bardo’s 2 acres of dusty ground and whichever of its 40-plus beers are brewing in the tanks behind the bar. Or maybe it’s the fact that the whole place is strewn with apparently salvaged furniture, including sun-bleached Eames-style chairs, and plush couches that don’t seem to belong outside. Even the metal garbage cans seem built for postapocalyptic bonfires beneath the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge. So head on over to the reclaimed wood bar, where in the not-too-distant future we’ll be trading cigarettes for potable water and IPAs and trying not to make eye contact with the roving gangs of bureaucrats who went feral when the federal government fell.

Should the date go south (and with all those fishing photos, it’s likely), I won’t even be mad; I’ll just sidle up to the nicest bartenders in town and get my usual, the bar’s self-titled drink: a Maker’s Mark bourbon served neat alongside a glass of sparkling rosé.

Owney the mail dog National Postal Museum, 2 Massachusetts Ave. NE
There’s no shortage of stuffed animals at the Smithsonian museums: In addition to hundreds of anonymous critters on display at the National Museum of Natural History, you can find three stuffed war heroes — a pigeon, a dog and a horse — in the National Museum of American History. But even among this crowded field, one bit of taxidermy stands out: Owney the mail dog. This scruffy mutt is currently on display on the downstairs atrium level of the National Postal Museum. His journey to fame began in 1888 in Albany, N.Y., when he was abandoned by his owner and began riding on mail trains. He eventually became the unofficial mascot of the railway mail service, and fans began putting tags on his collar to commemorate his journeys — so many that Owney was eventually fitted with a custom vest to carry the overflow. Sadly, stardom went to Owney’s head — or perhaps he just got crotchety in his old age — and he attacked a mail clerk in 1897 and was subsequently shot dead. Despite his ignoble end, Owney was memorialized on a stamp and occasionally communicates from beyond the grave via his Twitter account, @OWNEYtheDOG. S.D.

Before Chaia’s two-story space near the Georgetown waterfront opened in 2015, your best bet for finding the company’s plant-based tacos was waiting in what was sure to be an interminable line at D.C.-area farmers markets. Now you have a light-filled, painfully Instagrammable space to make good on your long-ago resolution to eat more seasonal vegetables. Chaia rotates ingredients with the seasons, which means that in the fall, its chewy, smoky corn tortillas are filled with eggplant, kale and potato, beets or (my personal favorite) mushrooms. Complementing it all are sauces and toppings of varying creaminess and spiciness. Most tacos can be made vegan by eliminating the pepperjack, queso fresco, ricotta and any dairy-based sauces, or made anti-vegan on weekends with the addition of fried or scrambled eggs. L.M.
Hidden under the Whitehurst Freeway, Gypsy Sally’s can be easy to miss, but if you’re spending a night out in Georgetown, it’s worth the hunt. The venue, which turned 4 last month, is one of the best small music spaces in D.C. (it’s actually two venues if you count the intimate Vinyl Lounge in the back, which hosts free shows and open-mic nights). Its niche leans toward Americana, tribute acts and New Orleans music; ticket prices are kept (relatively) low and you’ll often catch D.C.-area musicians onstage (or in the audience). That’s why the vibe of Gypsy Sally’s is so friendly: There’s a community of music fans who frequent the venue, and every time I go, I’m sure to see someone I know or recognize. Sometimes that’s co-owners Karen and David Ensor, who can often be found getting lost in a jam behind the bar. R.G.
Violet Boutique is a lighthouse that calls women in from a sea of clothing choices that are boring or expensive or both. This Georgetown shop carries unique, affordable clothing and accessories — moreover, the inventory is flipped so quickly that you can find something new even if you go in twice in one week. (Not that I have ever done that.) The options are so good that you might go in for a dress for a wedding and walk out with two, because there could be another wedding in your future you just haven’t heard about yet! (Not that I have ever done that.) The staff is friendly and helpful — though not aggressively so — and the store’s Instagram account features stylish outfits on models of a variety of shapes and sizes. The only downside of Violet is that you can wander in with a $50 budget and walk out having spent … a lot more than that. (Not that I have ever done that.) K.P.K.

Depending on what time of year you visit, you might see the dusty green leaves of the silver ponysfoot vine spilling over a brick wall and piling up on the pathway below. Or you might get a whiff of the giant Dutchman’s pipe, a stinky flower with the color, shape and smell of a baboon’s butt. If you can’t catch garden horticulturalist Janet Draper on one of her weekly public tours of the garden (2 p.m. Tuesdays, May through October), be sure to read the handwritten notes she places like Easter eggs beside her favorite plants. “Yowza! Seriously spiney,” a current one reads. S.D.

best of /express picks BEST $1 BINS AT A RECORD STORE
Som Records
MOSHE ZUSMAN PHOTOGRAPHY STUDIO
1843 14th St. NW
Some of my most treasured (and oft-listened-to) vinyl records came from the $1 bins at Som Records: Prince’s “Purple Rain,” Fleetwood Mac’s “Rumours,” the Grateful Dead’s “From the Mars Hotel.” Whenever I stop by the 12-year-old record shop, I beeline for the $1 bins on the floor. The $1 bin — a staple of every good record store — is the easiest way to build your collection or take a chance on something with an eyecatching cover. Owner Neal Becton says some records go straight in the bins, while others are marked-down records that just didn’t sell. I get a rush whenever I find something good. Just a few months ago, I walked in looking for Bob Dylan’s “Nashville Skyline.” After 20 minutes of digging through the regular section, I moved down to the $1 bins. A few minutes later, there Dylan was, smiling right back at me. R.G.
BEST PLACES TO MAKE YOUR INSTAGRAM FOLLOWERS JEALOUS
The Hamilton
RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)
600 14th St. NW
I take a lot of pictures at concerts, but I’m not a professional photographer — just that annoying guy with an iPhone and an Instagram account. The Hamilton is the venue where I know I’m most likely to get nearly pro-level photos. The key is to snag a spot in the front of the small, often not too crowded general-admission pit, where there’s enough room to take a variety of shots without elbowing your neighbor. The stage is so low that, if you hold your phone at the right angle, your photo will almost make it seem like you were onstage with the band (see my shot of bassist George Porter Jr., left). Concerts there aren’t too dim (low light is always a problem for show photos) and the venue has one of the best, most versatile in-house lighting rigs in D.C. When a beam of light hits a musician just right, it can turn an OK photo into a great one. R.G.
Old Capitol stones Rock Creek Park
Tired of seeing Instagram pics of the old Capitol columns at the Arboretum? Check out their cousins in Rock Creek Park instead. In a rarely visited patch of woods stands D.C.’s own Stonehenge: piles of sandstone and marble stones, some of which still bear the intricate carvings that indicate their former home as part of the U.S. Capitol’s east facade. The stones, which date back to as early as 1812, were discarded after a mid-20th-century renovation and left in unruly piles to be slowly reclaimed by the forest. To get to them, park at the Rock Creek Park maintenance yard just off Glover Road, then find the narrow path that runs alongside a chain-link fence at the southeast corner of the parking lot. When you get to the stones, be careful and step gently — these are historic artifacts, after all. S.D.
The Block 4221 John Marr Drive, Annandale, Va.
You see a bowl or a plate. The Block sees a canvas. The Asian-leaning food hall is home to a full bar and five different food stalls, all serving photogenic — and utterly delicious — dishes. Find glistening cuts of raw fish and technicolor toppings at Pokéworks; comfort food like pork belly and a runny egg over rice at Balo Kitchen; steaming soups with hearty garnishes straight from Bangkok at Roots; and iced treats from Munch and SnoCream Company so tantalizing that your Instagram followers may be tempted to lick their phone screens. Though The Block is essentially a windowless warehouse, the lighting is strong enough for good photos. (Still, the brightness setting comes in handy.) Many people have been known to step outside to snap shots against the white walls. Never mind all the likes you’ll get: The most rewarding part is devouring your subjects. H.S.

Starting Friday, 19 of the dollhouse-size crime scenes will be on display in the Renwick Gallery exhibit “Murder Is Her Hobby: Frances Glessner Lee and The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death.” Lee, who died in 1962, called her miniatures “nutshell studies” because the job of homicide investigators, according to a phrase she had picked up from detectives, is to “convict the guilty, clear the innocent and

9. Lee sewed the clothes worn by her figurines, selecting fabrics that signified their social status and state of mind. In some cases, she even tailor-made underwear for them. 10. The doll heads and arms were antique German porcelain doll parts that were commercially available. Lee would create the bodies herself, often with lead shot in them. 11.

find the truth in a nutshell.” “She became the first female police captain in the country, and she was regarded as an expert in the field of homicide investigation,” exhibit curator Nora Atkinson says. When Lee was building her macabre miniatures, she was a wealthy heiress and grandmother in New Hampshire who had spent decades reading medical textbooks and attending autopsies. Police departments brought her in to consult on difficult cases, and she also taught forensic science seminars at
“She was very particular about exactly how dolls ought to appear to express social status and the way [the victims] died.” NORA ATKINSON , curator of “Murder Is Her Hobby: Frances Glessner Lee and The Nutshell Studies of Unexplained Death,” on Lee’s meticulous attention to detail in her murder-scene dioramas
Harvard Medical School, Atkinson says. Lee painstakingly constructed the dioramas for her seminars, basing them on reallife cases but altering details to protect the victims’ privacy. “She was very particular about exactly how dolls ought to appear to express social status and the way [the victims] died,” Atkinson says. “If a doll has a specific discoloration, it’s scientifically accurate — she’s reproducing the effects of carbon monoxide poisoning and positioning them based on when rigor mortis took effect.”
Tiny details in the scenes matter too. For example, fibers on one doll’s wounds match those on a nearby door frame. At the Renwick exhibit, visitors will be given magnifying glasses and flashlights to conduct their own homicide investigations, but don’t ask museum staff for help — the scenes are still used in annual training seminars, so their secrets are closely guarded.

With a voice and pop-rock sensibility that recall Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan and the late Tom Petty, Granduciel builds exploratory tracks heavy on guitar freakouts, synths, moody atmospherics and big hooks. On August’s “A Deeper Understanding,” the band’s first for Atlantic Records, Granduciel proves he’s come a long way from his days as fellow rocker Kurt Vile’s backup guitarist.

Willie Watson has a penchant for making old songs sound new. On his second solo album, “Folksinger Vol. 2,” a follow-up to “Folk Singer Vol. 1,” the former Old Crow Medicine Show member brings a light touch to traditional classics like “Samson and Delilah,” “On the Road Again” and “John Henry.” With the help of producer David Rawlings and a host of guest musicians, Watson breathes life into these songs, letting his aching, intimate vocals stand out among often sparse instrumentation.

Canadian rock star Gord Downie dies 1964-2017 Gord Downie, who made himself part of Canada’s national identity with songs about hockey and small towns as lead singer of rock band The Tragically Hip, has died at age 53 after a battle with brain cancer. A statement on the band’s website said he died Tuesday night “with his beloved children and family close by.” Since The Tragically Hip’s first album in 1987, the band has provided a soundtrack for the lives of many Canadians. “Ahead by a Century” and “Bobcaygeon” are among the best known. Downie was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive and incurable brain cancer, in December 2015. When the band made the news public the following May, expressions of sorrow poured in across the country. That same day, the band said it would mount a Canadian tour despite Downie’s cancer. Tickets for the 2016 summer tour sold out

almost immediately, culminating in a national broadcast of the band’s final tour stop at Kingston, Ontario. Millions tuned in. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau wept in Parliament on Wednesday while making a statement about Downie on national television. “We are less as a country without Gord Downie in it,” he said. “We all knew it was coming but we hoped it wasn’t.” ROB GILLIES AND CHARMAINE NORONHA (AP)

“Ivanka Trump’s alleged punk phase consisted of listening to ‘Sk8er Boi’ and relating to the girl who said see you later boy.” @HIREMEIMFUNNY, referencing Avril Lavigne’s 2002 hit song “Sk8er Boi” to make fun of Ivanka Trump, who writes in a passage in “Raising Trump” — the new memoir by her mother, Ivana Trump — that she once had a “punk phase.” Ivanka writes that she was “really into Nirvana,” had flannel shirts and dyed her hair blue. Some people didn’t take her claim very seriously. “Watching a Lollapalooza concert from a press box doesn’t count,” @jrivera64 tweeted. And @DaveHolmes wrote, “You had — AT MOST— a Sum 41 CD.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You have much to do, but you needn’t approach anything in a emotional fashion. You can stay on an even keel. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) A deadline approaches, but you may be able to arrange for some extra time — especially if your negotiation skills are primed and ready. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You’ll want to keep the lines of communication open all day long — and you can encourage others to be more frank and honest than usual. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You risk having a lot of people angry with you if you continue along your current course. Consider a change.

TODAY: High pressure holds court, which means another day much like Wednesday, with plenty of sun and blue skies. A light wind from the south pushes temperatures slightly warmer, with afternoon highs into the low 70s. Nothing to see tonight but clear skies and light winds. Lows stay in the upper 40s to mid-50s.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Making a good impression is the secret to a successful day — on more than one occasion. How you package yourself is of the utmost importance. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Others may not understand your unique approach to a situation, but they’ll appreciate the results you get.

Models to have slumber parties on TV
Touching of the arms means love! Jenny Slate and Chris Evans, who dated for nine months before breaking up in February, met up for two consecutive dinner dates in Atlanta last week, igniting rumors that they might have gotten back together. “They seemed like a couple,” a source told Us Weekly. “[They were] laughing. He reached across and touched her arm a couple of times. They seemed like normal people on a date.” (EXPRESS)
Karlie Kloss will host a new talk show on Freeform this winter called “Movie Night With Karlie Kloss.” According to The Hollywood Reporter, the series will feature “short-form interviews, games and, of course, movies.” The first episode, which airs at 6:30 p.m. on Dec. 28, will bring in fellow supermodels Jourdan Dunn and Martha Hunt as guests, along with actor Burkely Duffield and magician Joel Ward. Serena Williams, Rachel Bilson, Victoria Justice and Ruby Rose, as well as models Kaia Gerber, Ashley Graham, Kendall Jenner, Joan Smalls and Amber Valletta, are also expected to appear throughout the show’s six-episode run.

Tabloid unveils sole person writing Groupon reviews
Only the smart guests brought Tide To Go
Tiffany Haddish elaborated on her love for Groupon in a new interview with People. She told the magazine that when she and her “Girls Trip” co-stars reunite, she offers to get Groupons to cool restaurants, but they tell her they’ll just pay full price. “I just got a pedicure because of Groupon,” she added, “and it was the best pedicure ever. I’m going to write a review!” (EXPRESS)
Gucci Mane and Keyshia Ka’oir got married on Tuesday night at Miami’s Four Seasons, in what People magazine reported was a $1.7 million ceremony.

Ka’oir and many of the famous guests shared on social media photos from the lavish wedding — which had an allwhite dress code, and flowers and crystals as decorations. (EXPRESS)
