Americans Shun Immigrant Jobs Strict new state laws spur workers to flee, leaving jobs behind

Beij BWXeh

Potato farmer Keith Smith saw most of his Hispanic workers leave after Alabama’s tough immigration law took effect, so he hired Americans. It hasn’t worked out: They show up late, work slower than seasoned farm hands and are ready to call it a day after lunch or by midafternoon. Some quit after a single day. In Alabama and other parts of the country, farmers must look beyond the nation’s borders for labor because many Americans simply don’t want the backbreaking, low-paying jobs immigrants are willing to take. Politicians who support the law say over time more unemployed Americans will fill these jobs. They insist it’s too early to consider the law a failure, yet numbers from the governor’s office show only nominal interest. “I’ve had people calling me wanting to work,” Smith said. “I haven’t turned any of them down,

but they’re not any good. It’s hard work; they just don’t work like the Hispanics with experience.” Alabama passed its law in June, and it was immediately challenged by the Obama administration as it has been in other states. Unlike those states’ measures, Alabama’s law was left largely in place while challenges played out in court, frightening Hispanics and driv-

ing many of them away. The agriculture industry suffered the most immediate impact. Farmers said they will have to downsize or let crops die on the vine. As the season’s harvest winds down, many are worried about next year. Brent Martin, an Alabama resident, started working on a tomato farm in an area northeast of Birmingham after the law was passed.

Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley, a Republican who signed the tough immigration law, started a program last week to help businesses, particularly farmers, make up for the lost labor. So far, about 260 people interested in temporary agricultural jobs have signed up. About three dozen of them have been hired, said Tara Hutchison, a spokeswoman for the Alabama Department of Industrial Relations. She didn’t know whether any had quit. Alabama Sen. Scott Beason, a Republican, said he has received several emails and phone calls from people thanking him for helping them get jobs. (AP)

On Thursday, he and two other Americans were clearing about 24,000 tomato stakes off a 4-acre plot. He said few Americans who would stick with it. “There are plenty who could do it, but would they? I don’t know about that. I don’t see why they wouldn’t as bad as the economy is right now,” Martin said. ALICIA A. CALDWELL AND JAY REE VES (AP)

The owner of an exotic animal farm who killed himself after setting his menagerie of tigers, lions, bears and other beasts loose in the Ohio countryside was deep in debt, records show. Terry Thompson and his wife had money problems dating to the 1990s, but their debt had escalated in recent years, and they owed at least $56,000 in Thompson unpaid income taxes to the IRS and $12,000 in property taxes to the county, according to the court records obtained Thursday. Thompson’s collection of black

bears, grizzlies, mountain lions, leopards and other exotic creatures was no secret to neighbors or authorities, who were called many times over the years about animals wandering away. But their escape this time was no accident. Thompson, 62, unleashed all 56 from his private Muskingum County Animal Farm near Zanesville, then shot himself on Wednesday. Authorities had to hunt down and kill or capture the animals, and only one monkey is unaccounted for, though it’s highly likely the monkey was killed by one of the big cats, county Sheriff Matt Lutz said. The man’s body was found near

the empty cages with a bite wound on the head that appeared to have come from a large cat, such as a Bengal tiger, Lutz said Thursday, adding that Thompson’s wife, Marian, was distraught over the loss of her husband and the animals. Most of the big cats and bears were declawed and had been bottlefed since the animals were babies, said Judy Hatfield, a family friend who visited the farm many times and said it wasn’t unusual to have a monkey jump on your lap. “I know how much he cared for them, and he would know that they would be killed,” Hatfield said.

Planet’s Birth Caught on Camera Expert: Jackson Couldn’t Cause >edebkbk Astronomers have captured the His Own Death first direct image of a planet being born. Adam Kraus, of the University of Hawaii’s Institute for Astronomy, said the planet is being formed out of dust and gas circling the 2 milion-year-old star LkCa 15 about 450 light years from Earth. The planet itself, based on scientific models of how planets form, is estimated to have started taking shape about 50,000 to 100,000 years ago. Called LkCa 15 b, it’s the youngest planet ever observed. The previous record holder was about five times older.

Unpredictable Outlook for Libya

With Gadhafi dead, country must now fill a power vacuum MWi^_d]jed

Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s victorious revolutionaries now face a new threat: themselves. The secular and the religious, the politicians and the militants all basked Thursday in the demise of a dictator after fighters killed Moammar Gadhafi. But the White House and others tempered the celebrations with caution, conscious that Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s former rebels must avoid falling prey to extremists, or political infighting, which has hijacked previous revolutions. T hursday â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s developments appeared to signal a decisive end to eight months of civil war. But there is still a massive power vacuum and uncertainty about what or who will fill it. Despite a public embrace of Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transitional leadership, the U.S. remains leery of some of those who have promised to hasten elections

?cc[Z_Wj[ ?cfWYj The death of Moammar Gadhafi on Thursday removes a threat to the stability of global oil markets. It will still be several months before Libya can export as much oil as it did before it descended into civil war this year, but as Libyan crude returns, it could lower the price of oil on the international markets and gasoline at American pumps. When fears arise that oil supplies might fall short, traders get nervous, and prices can go up fast. (AP)

)+ )$/.

The price decrease per barrel of oil that New York trading witnessed Thursday, $85.30 per barrel. Oil had returned Wednesday to its price before Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s uprising, though the average price of a gallon of gas in the U.S. was unchanged at $3.47.

The increase in the price of oil between Feb. 15, when Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s protests started in Benghazi, and April 29, when oil hit almost $114 per barrel, the highest since 2008.

The price per gallon of gasoline in the U.S. on May 5, a three-year high. High prices and the prospect that Libyan crude would disappear from the market for a long time led a group of oil-importing nations to release oil from emergency stocks this year.

and democracy. And, while no official said it, the fear of an Islamist surge in power hangs over Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unsure future. Armed groups across the country have emerged as laws unto themselves. The National Transitional Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s de facto prime minister Mahmoud Jibril has indicated heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll step aside once Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s liberation is complete, creating possibly another vacuum. And in a country awash in weaponry, the threat of widespread instability is high. Libyaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s patchwork of competing tribal and regional loyalties makes it challenging to govern under any circumstances, and 42 years of idiosyncratic rule under Gadhafi compounds the difficulty. State Department spokesman Mark Toner echoed that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;tricky partâ&#x20AC;? of the revolution begins now. Ali Errishi, an ex-Libyan minister who abandoned Gadhafi early in the revolution, said the best strategy for stability would be to start democracy work immediately. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to wait for elections,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Mexico Strives to Scale Back Child Obesity Government focuses on kids to counter a growing problem

PA PA NDREOU, ON THURSDAY, URGING AN END TO DEADLOCKED TALKS ON A EUROPEAN DEBT DEAL. EARLIER IN THE DAY, LAWMAKERS IN GREECE PASSED A DEEPLY RESENTED AUSTERITY BILL.

C[n_Ye 9_jo Anghella Torres is just 4 years old, but already she weighs 66 pounds — twice what she should. Her little feet constantly hurt from bearing the extra weight. Anghella knows she is obese and she doesn’t like it. And though she doesn’t know how to read or count calories, she is on a diet. With the help of her grandmother and caretaker, Elizabeth Sucilla, Anghella is on a diet and exercise plan.

Fhecej_d] >[Wbj^o B_l_d] This year, public pre-kindergarten and elementary schools in Mexico banned the sale of soft drinks and junk food, and replaced breakfast programs with dishes rich in vegetables. Middle schools sell only sugar-free drinks, low-calorie snacks and small bags of chips. During a recent recess at one elementary school, snack options included a turkey hot dog on a wheat bun with tomatoes, sunflower seeds, or cucumbers and carrots. (AP)

“I have to stop eating candies,” she said. Mexico, which claims to have the fattest children in the world, is trying to encourage others to follow Anghella’s lead. Public schools

have banned junk food and are requiring more hours of physical education, and the federal government has launched a campaign that invites families to enroll their kids in a weight-loss program.

Yet three-quarters of Mexico City’s 2,400 public schools lack playgrounds or gyms. And 80 percent of the schools don’t have water fountains. Experts stress the importance of drinking more water and fewer sugary drinks to prevent and reverse weight gain. Mexico’s public health institute says the problem lies not just with children: Seventy percent of Mexican adults are overweight or obese. Officials have decided to target children and teens first because they are the largest age group, and fighting their habits now would prevent diabetes and other illnesses in the future, the officials said.

C[jhe C[[jkf Totally plausible scenario: You’re late to work because of a broken escalator, and you post about the ordeal on Facebook. Instead of sympathy, you get snotty responses from “friends” who don’t live around here: “You crybaby. It’s a flight of stairs. Deal with it.” So you shoot back: “Listen, fool. I’m talking about the DUPONT escalator. … Oh, never mind — you wouldn’t understand.” But if you’d shared your comment with pals on DC Metro Connection (Dcmetroconnection.com), they would understand. The new social media site is the brainchild of 26-year-old Joshua Ihezie, a Bowie, Md., resident who’s convinced that his fellow passengers need a place to gather online and

share ideas. “All other social networks are too big,” he explains. “This is specifically for people in the DMV.” (And even more specifically, for people in the DMV — D.C., Maryland and Virginia — who don’t need to visit the Department of Motor Vehicles.) After you sign up, you create a

profile with basic info about yourself, including the color of your regular Metro line. That’s the part that’s sort of like LinkedIn. From your “dashboard,” you can contribute a quick post to “Transit Talk,” which is the part that’s sort of like Twitter. As a member, you can join (or start) a group. For now, the list includes parents, students, singles and the ART 45 Bus. That’s the part that’s like Meetup. You can also create event pages to tell people about Metro-accessible concerts, happy hours and other stuff, which is the part that’s like … I’m not sure. Anyway, none of this can really work until more members join. So Ihezie has spent the past few weeks populating the site with loads of his comments to show folks the possibilities. He envisions people who have similar commutes forming groups to carpool to Metro sations and being able to check Transit Talk for news of delays, accidents or odd sights at stations across the system. “You can know what’s happening on the different lines,” he says. Beyond the informational possibilities, Ihezie also hopes DC Metro Connection can make the ride more fun. “You can see some people are lonely. They can meet people to talk to,” he says, suggesting it could facilitate real-world networking. “Instead of getting someone’s number, you can say, ‘Are you on DC Metro Connection? Join my group.’” On the face of it, it’s not a bad idea. Especially if you want to gripe about busted escalators together.

Passenger Fatally Shot on Metrobus in Southeast MWi^_d]jed A passenger riding a Metrobus overnight was killed after being shot in the face, D.C. police said. The shooting occurred shortly after midnight Thursday in the 2100 block of Alabama Ave-

nue SE, according to police. Officers found Demetrius Emmanuel Thompson, 22, of Southeast, lying in the street. He died at a hospital, police said. Police closed the 2100 and 2200 blocks of Alabama Avenue for the investigation.

Investigators are looking for three suspects. According surveillance video, they boarded the bus just prior to the shooting, police said. Information about what led to the shooting is not yet available, police said. MAGGIE FA ZELI FARD (THE WASHINGTON POST )

About 8.4 percent of the region’s residents were living below the poverty threshold in 2010. That was almost a full percentage point lower than Honolulu, the next-low-

est city on the list released by the Census Bureau on Thursday. The highest poverty rates were all in the West and the South. McAllen, Texas, had the most poverty, with fully a third of the population living in poverty. It was followed by Fresno, Calif.; El Paso, Texas; and Bakersfield, Calif., all of which had rates above 20 percent. In 2010, Maryland was one of only six states that experienced a poverty rate of less than 10 percent, though just barely. According to the census, its rate rose from 9.1 percent in 2009 to 9.9 percent last year. Virginia’s poverty rate rose from 10.5 percent to 11.1 percent in the same time period. The Dis-

A Blow to Dictators

EX_jkWho

Gadhaﬁ’s death is a warning to other leaders challenged in the Arab Spring

During nearly 42 years in power in Libya, Moammar Gadhafi was one of the world’s most eccentric dictators, so mercurial that he was both condemned and courted by the West, while he brutally warped his country with his idiosyncratic vision of autocratic rule until he was finally toppled by his own people.

9W_he Images of Moammar Gadhafi’s bloodied body flashed on TV screens across the world may send shivers down the spines of Syria’s Bashar Assad and Yemen’s Ali Abdullah Saleh, two leaders clinging to power in the face of long-running Arab Spring uprisings. For the millions of Arabs yearning for freedom, democracy and new leadership, the death of one of the region’s most brutal dictators will likely inspire and invigorate the movement for change.

— PRE SIDENT OBA M A , ON THE DEATH OF MOAMMAR GADHAFI ON THURSDAY.

Gadhafi’s death sent ripples across the Arab world and set the Internet’s social networks abuzz with comments, mostly celebrating the demise of a leader whose bizarre and eccentric behavior over the years defined the woes of an Arab world mostly ruled by autocratic or despotic leaders. “There is an emotional connection between the revolutionaries in the region. Hope is contagious,” said Egyptian activist Mona Seif. “Our revolution is one. The fall of another tyrant is a victory for all of us,” she said on her Twitter account. Gadhafi was shot dead in the final battle for his hometown of Sirte on Libya’s Mediterranean coast. He had been in hiding for the two months since the capital of Tripoli fell to rebels who rose up against his 42-year

Jubilant children in the streets of Tripoli celebrate Thursday the death of Moammar Gadhafi, who ruled Libya for more than four decades.

=WZ^W\_Êi BWij >ekhi There were confusing reports of Moammar Gadhafi’s capture and death, and questions remained over exactly how he was killed. In an interview, Libya’s interim prime minister, Mahmoud Jibril, told The Washington Post that Gadhafi was discovered hiding in “a big pipe of the sewage system” in Sirte on Thursday morning. Gadhafi, wearing pants and a long-underwear shirt, had a pistol but did not resist arrest, Jibril said. But when Gadhafi was walked out of the culvert to a truck, a firefight broke out between revolutionaries and Gadhafi’s security detail, and Gadhafi was shot in his right arm, Jibril said. When the truck started moving, “they came under intense crossfire,” and Gadhafi was struck in the head, he said. “That was the deadly shot. I cannot confirm whether he was shot by our people or his security brigade. It was crossfire,” said the prime minister. Gadhafi died within yards of a hospital, Jibril said. (THE WASHINGTON POST )

rule in February. The 69-year-old Gadhafi — the first leader to be killed in the Arab Spring wave of popular uprisings — had vowed to fight to the end. In his world of nationalism and desert valor, it was

a fate better than the perceived humiliation of exile or incarceration endured by Tunisia’s Zine El Abidine Ben Ali and Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak. But while the death of Gadhafi and the triumph of the uprising in his North

African nation has instantly given heart to pro-reform activists dreaming of change, the Arab world will watch closely what happens next in Libya — and to whether the region’s “Assads” and “Salehs” will see in his fate an incentive to cling to power and crack down even harder on any sign of unrest. Thousands staged jubilant demonstrations to celebrate Gadhafi’s demise in Syria and Yemen, countries where months of massive street protests have yet to bring regime change. Tens of thousands of Yemenis danced and sang in the streets of several cities in that Arabian Peninsula nation. Their celebration was met with violence when security forces loyal to the regime opened up with tear gas and live ammunition. “Saleh must be feeling more isolated now after Gadhafi’s death and feels the noose getting tighter around his neck,” Yemeni analyst Ali al-Horeiby said of his nation’s embattled leader. “His time is up.” (AP)

The modern Arab world’s longest-ruling figure, Libya’s “Brother Leader,” displayed striking contrasts. He was a sponsor of terrorism whose regime was blamed for blowing up two passenger jets, who then helped the U.S. in the war on terror. He was an Arab nationalist who mocked Arab rulers. In the crowning paradox, he preached a “revolutionary” utopia of people power but ran a one-man dictatorship that fueled the revolution against him.

;njhWlW]WdY[ Notorious for his extravagant outfits — ranging from white suits and sunglasses to military uniforms with frilled epaulets to brilliantly colored robes decorated with the map of Africa — he styled himself as a combination Bedouin chief and philosopher king.

B[]WYo Gadhafi leaves behind an oil-rich nation of 6.5 million traumatized by a rule that drained it of institutions while the ship of state was directed by the whims of one man and his family. (AP)

J^[ H[Zia_di The Carolina Panthers are not a good football team. They do, however, possess the one element the Redskins have spent years searching for in vain: a franchise quarterback.

Well, when John Beck takes his first snap Sunday, he will become the team’s 21st starting quarterback in 19 years. Washington coach Mike Shanahan was supposed to be a QB guru, but under his watch, Donovan McNabb and Rex Grossman foundered. “There’s nothing wrong with admitting you made a mistake,” Shanahan said. Now, the Redskins are in the precipitous position of handing the reins to a guy who has been floating on the fringes of the NFL since 2007. “I’m just going to go out there and do the very best that I can,” Beck said. The Panthers have been thrilled with Newton’s best. He’s made mistakes — his nine interceptions are tied with Grossman for the league worst — but the strides

He’s got all the measurables and intangibles.” Around the league, the Redskins’ quarterback woes are old hat, and installing Beck hasn’t done much to dispel the “been there, done that” vibe. But Beck wants to prove to the doubters that he is an NFL-caliber QB and the answer to Washington’s worries at the position. “I just want to go out on the field and play the way I can play,” Beck said. “Sometimes there’s going to be adversity, and I just try to prepare myself as best I can for all those unforeseen adversities that will come.” ELLIOT T SMITH

Slow Start: Don’t expect a complex offensive attack, especially with a banged-up offensive line. John Beck will get to make simple throws to help build his confidence.

Candid Camera: The Redskins’ defenders will have to keep a constant eye on Cam Newton, because the QB is a threat to scramble on every play.

Terps Forced to Grow Up Quickly Sat. | ABC

Six points to West Virginia. Five points to Georgia Tech. Eleven points to Clemson. Three of Maryland’s four losses have come in close games against Top 25 teams. Counting his time at Connecticut, coach Randy Edsall, left, is now 1-19 against ranked teams. While the Terps are encouraged by those performances, they aren’t satisfied with hanging tough against some of the country’s best teams. “Either you win or you don’t. Either she’s pregnant or she’s not,” senior Davin Meggett said. D.T.

J[hfi <eejXWbb A year ago, Alex Twine was a 16-year-old senior at Quince Orchard High School, getting ready for a big game at Seneca Valley. Last week, he was starting at linebacker for Maryland against an undefeated and No. 8-ranked Clemson team — part of a trio of freshman linebackers and one of five freshmen defensive starters forced into action by a debilitating rash of injuries. Linebackers Lorne Goree (12), Twine (8) and Mario Rowson (3) combined for 23 tackles against the Tigers, but the defense gave up 39 second-half points in a 56-45 loss.

They’ll likely need a better showing on Saturday for Maryland (2-4, 1-2 ACC) to upset No. 23 Florida State (3-3, 1-2) in Tallahassee. Whether the result of inexperience or of struggles enacting a new scheme under coordinator Todd Bradford, Maryland’s defense ranks 10th in the ACC, allowing

which I think is huge,” senior defensive tackle Joe Vellano said. Though head coach Randy Edsall is notoriously stingy with injury information, he hinted late in the week that junior linebacker Darin Drakeford could return to the lineup on Saturday. In the depth chart released Monday, Twine was listed ahead of Drakeford. The return of Drakeford would be welcome for the depleted squad. Several players have been on the field for nearly every snap in recent games. The coach suggested that while things may look dire now, the experience the young players are gaining should pay dividends in the future. And the freshmen, such as Goree, aren’t conceding anything. “We are the starters,” he said.

Caps Learning the Ways of the Force If Obi-Wan Kenobi had let himself go, and ditched the beard, he might have looked a bit like Bruce Boudreau. Thus far, the two teachers have about the same track record. Each was handed a star full of some sort of force, but neither star has reached the level of success expected of him. For those who’ve been hiding in the Millennium Falcon’s cargo bay for the past 8o CWjj 35 years or so, Anakin Im[died Skywalker was the most talented of the Jedi. It was up to Kenobi to help his pupil master the art of the Force. Except for an unlucky few, we all know how that turned out.

;WY^ mWi ^WdZ[Z W ijWh \kbb e\ iec[ iehj e\ \ehY[" Xkj d[_j^[h ^Wi h[WY^[Z j^[ b[l[b e\ ikYY[ii [nf[Yj[Z e\ ^_c$ Boudreau has a similarly gifted protégé in Alex Ovechkin. The Great 8 has won plenty of individual accolades, including two MVPs, but hasn’t hoisted the Stanley Cup. And if he doesn’t, some may start comparing Ovechkin, and his hefty contract, to Darth Vader. It’s early, but this year’s sequel appears closer in quality to “The Empire Strikes Back” than “Attack of the Clones.” While Ovechkin hadn’t found his scoring touch yet, the Caps are off to a franchise-best start. At least part of the credit belongs to Boudreau, who’s taken a more Yoda-esque taskmaster approach to Kenobi’s pupil-friendly style. It seems like that’s just what the Caps needed. And, come to think of it, if Yoda weren’t green and were a few hundred years younger, he, too, might resemble Boudreau. To reach Matt Swenson, e-mail matt.swenson@readexpress.com

Keys to the Caps’ Hot Start It’s early, but here are 3 reasons that this season appears to be extremely promising Ed Jk[iZWo d_]^j" the Capitals set a franchise mark for

best start to a season by shutting out the Florida Panthers, 3-0, to improve to 5-0 overall. The last time the team came close to winning five straight to start the season — in 199798, when they took four games to open the year — the team reached the Stanley Cup Finals. While the stat is promising, it’s no reason to map out a spot along Constitution Avenue for a cup parade. Still, here are a few players responsible for the hot start that might signal success this season. REED S. ALBERS

8WYaijhecÊi Wbceij XWYa

One of the story lines heading into the new season centered on how Capitals stars Nicklas Backstrom and Alex Ovechkin would respond to their career-low point totals last season. While Ovechkin — with a goal and two assists through five — hasn’t exactly shrugged off the slump, Backstrom appears to be rekindling the chemistry with his teammates that helped produce a 101-point season in 2009-10. In the first five games, Backstrom had a power play goal — his first goal since March 6 of last season — six assists and a team-leading six points. It’s a return to form early on, and if Backstrom can stay healthy, the Swede might be able to reach the century mark for the second time in his career.

When the Caps traded for Dennis Wideman at the trading deadline last season, they hoped the veteran center might bring a mix of offense and defense to their blue line. His first few games in a Caps sweater showed promise, but then an injury kept him out of the playoffs. Now healthy, Wideman is beginning to live up to expectations. Through the first five games of 2011-12, Wideman has been the best Caps defender on the ice. Heading into Thursday’s game, Wideman led all Caps defensemen in points and plus-minus; had a power play goal and a game-winning goal; and was logging an average of 20 minutes of ice time each night.

Tomas Vokoun’s first appearance as a Cap, and the three goals that seemingly bounced off his backside into the net, had a few fans questioning whether trading away goalie Semyon Varlamov was a good idea. Since then, Vokoun has been the Caps’ No. 1 (partly because of an injury to Michal Neuvirth) and recorded wins in each of his starts. Heading into Thursday night’s game against the Philadelphia Flyers, his .935 save percentage was the 10th best in the NHL, and he recorded his first shutout as a Capital in Tuesday’s win. Take away his horrendous start against Tampa Bay, and Vokoun would have a .974 save percentage on the season.

Red Zone Woes Sinking the Mids’ Season DWlo <eejXWbb For the better part of the last decade, the Navy football team has capitalized on early red-zone chances, allowing the Midshipmen to manipulate the clock with time-consuming drives that by the fourth quarter had defenses fatigued and out of sorts. Eight-straight winning seasons since 2003 have validated that blueprint, but this year, Navy for the most part has been unable to implement those principles. In the

past three games, the Midshipmen (2-4) have scored six points combined in their first two trips inside their opponent’s 20-yard line. As a result, the program is in jeopardy of its worst season since installing the triple option in 2002, when the Midshipmen finished 2-10. What has been especially exasperating during Navy’s four-game slide is the regularity with which the Midshipmen have been able to accumulate points after initially stalling in the red zone, including during Saturday’s 21-20 loss

to Rutgers. “It’s a little bit of everything. Busted assignment. Sometimes the defense just makes a play,” said senior quarterback Kriss Proctor, who ran for a season-low 39 yards against the Scarlet Knights. Relief may be near on Saturday against East Carolina (2-4) at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium. Last year, Navy scored 10 touchdowns in beating the Pirates, 76-35, to trigger a season-best fourgame winning streak.” GENE WANG (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Bryan Batt ACTOR, INTERIOR DESIGNER, COLOR LOVER Most people remember Bryan Batt from his memorable turn on “Mad Men” as closeted gay art director Sal Romano. But the Broadway veteran also owns a popular interior design shop and business in his native New Orleans. We caught up with him as he published the new decor book “Big, Easy Style: Creating Rooms You Love to Live In” ($35, Clarkson Potter). How is New Orleans’ decor different from style in other cities? It’s got an accessibility and a sense of fun. These are rooms you can live in without overdesigning. How are acting and home design different? Designing a room is kind of like creating a character. Everything in our world has been designed.

What inspires your designs? Everything from nature. When I did our new home, this New Orleans cottage, I focused on the beautiful light from the French doors. And the focal point is this wonderful painting with metallic elements. A lot of rooms in this book use antiques, but they aren’t grannyish. What’s the key to that? One way to bring antiques up to date is to use a great, modern fabric. You can also strip the wood on something like a Louis chair. And don’t do any room that’s too period. Mix in iconic pieces from different eras, and you won’t go wrong. How can you get these kind of rich looks on a budget? Use all the discount fabric stores

You love to use color at home. How do you not overdo it? Find colors that you look good in and use them at home. In my New York apartment, I made the mistake of painting my bathroom bright, apple green. The next morning I walked in, and I looked like something from a zombie movie! Are there any mistakes people make with color? Well, it’s a fallacy that lighter colors will make a room look bigger. Painting a room white doesn’t make any statement. What are your favorite colors right now? I love pale teal, which has been around for a while. And I’m into gray right now. You show many collections in the book. How do you display them without junking up a space? Well, first, a collection needs to be something organic that you really enjoy, something you are naturally drawn to. It’s a personal stamp, and when collections are displayed well, it tells a little story about you — where you’ve been, who your parents are. JENNIFER BARGER (E XPRESS)

Women’s leather jackets, pretty print dresses and drapey tops by Skunkfunk invade Lettie Gooch (1517 U St. NW; 202-332-4242) through Friday, and Ledbury’s well-fitting men’s shirts come to Georgetown (2805 M St. NW; Ledbury.com) Thursday through Saturday.

]eeZi beeaekj Man About Georgetown FOR JACK AND KATE, it used to be just bags. But Jack Spade (1250 Wisconsin Ave. NW; 202-333-1905), started by Kate Spade’s hubby (whose name is really Andy), just arrived in Georgetown with a slew of preppy-meetsmod menswear: checkered shirts ($195); wool cardigans; messenger bags in leather, nylon or wool (shown, $395). It’s all shown off in a retro space decked with old radios and vintage books.

Spirited Chocolate WE HAVE LONG liked the after-dinner combo of a Milky Way bar and a glass of Merlot. But Twice the Vice takes the idea of hooch-chocolate combos to a new level, turning top-shelf liquors (Glenlivet 15 single-malt scotch, Knob Creek bourbon) into downright boozy truffles ($26-$28 per nine-piece set, Twicethevice.com). Cocktail-style bonbons — White Russian, Margaritas — pack an alcoholic punch that even Willy Wonka would enjoy.

Kates and Alexas; we have a girl crush on designer Alice Temperley. She’s now applied her Brit-gone-breezy vibe to a collaboration with 117-year-old, trad English brand Barbour (3221 M St. NW; 202-298-6032). Sharp (yet Yorkshire moor-proof) waxed cotton rain jackets; draped, chunky tunic pullovers ($450$550); and faux-fur trimmed parkas (shown, $899) lend you warmth and wintery across-the-pond style while assuring no one mistakes you for Queen Elizabeth, out for a brisk walk with the corgis.

THOSE WITH BAD GENES just lost their

excuse for being mistaken for Al Pacino. After a decade of tests and studies, Lancome released its Genifique Youth Activating Concentrate ($58, Neimanmarcus.com), a translucent serum that battles the ravages of age by supposedly stimulating production of proteins that keep skin Emma Watson-like. After a week, our tester found the somewhat shiny gel gave her skin better tone. But the movie offers and paparazzi still did not come.

Cold Comforting WHEN A SORE THROAT, sinus infection from hell or deathly allergy to Mr. Whiskers hits your homestead, it’s not a reason for celebration, exactly. But plucking Kleenex out of Umbra’s Casa tissue holder ($5, Lnt.com) might make you ruefully smile as you sniffle and hack. Its bright-colored, molded polypropylene exterior might even withstand earthquakes better than the brick building you live in. But don’t think about that — it’ll just make you more depressed. =hWX 8W] _i ]Wj^[h[Z WdZ h[l_[m[Z Xo @[dd_\[h 8Wh][h WdZ AWj^[h_d[ 8eob[$ <_dZ ceh[ \eeZ" \Wi^_ed" X[Wkjo WdZ ^ec[ ]eeZi Wj [nfh[iid_]^jekj$Yec%]hWXXW]$

:[Wh CWdebe ANSWERS FROM THE SHOE BLOGGER

I would like to find some black sneakers that I can walk and do tai chi in but that still convey a modicum of chic. Is it possible to be chic in sneakers? — K ATIE Manolo says, the Manolo tried the tai chi once, and indeed found it to be pleasantly revivifying, what with the sugar, and the milk, and the cardamom. Oh, wait. Perhaps that was the chai tea. Well, whatever. The healthful cup of tea and the brisk strolling along the boulevards of the city are about as far as the Manolo is willing to go in

the way of the exotic health regimes. Certainly, he would never spend the hour in the park moving ponderously from the “Distended Crane” to the “Perturbed Ostrich” pose and back again. But, to each her own, yes? And if the Manolo’s friend, and millions of Chinese grannies, find such things to be helpful, then who is the Manolo to object to them? As for the sneaker chic, the Manolo would send his friend to the country that invented chic, or at least the word “chic,” France. Here in black and red is the Tennis Elastique from Bensimon, the classic tennis shoe of French ladies, now available in the United States from the Bensimon website ($55, Bensimonusa.com). There you will find the lace-up version, and the much wider range of colors. Ask the Manolo a question at manolo@shoeblogs.com. Visit the Manolo at shoeblogs.com.

Do the Time Warp

Chris Evans, I imagine, is plagued with the problems of a beautiful person. No one thinks that the leggy blonde has a brain; no one thinks the man with the titanium abs can act. Evans, who stars in the indie “Puncture,” opening Friday, clearly took the role of a scruffy, drug-addicted, tattooed, prostitutefrequenting attorney in an effort to dirty himself up. Though “Puncture” was filmed before Evans and his pecs starred in this 8o Ah_ij[d past summer’s “CapFW][#A_hXo tain America,” he was already getting pigeonholed in hotguy roles, such as Johnny Storm in “Fantastic Four.” “Puncture” isn’t a great film, but Evans gives a great performance. He turned in a great performance in “Captain America,” too, though, giving nuance to a character who’s by definition so straight you could use him to hang wallpaper. Still, I understand why Evans felt the need to get grungy — so audiences (and casting directors) would look past his humminahhumminah good looks. This isn’t a new phenomenon — attractive actresses have packed on pounds, applied prosthetics or played serial killers to get critical acclaim, and good-looking actors have hit the Krispy Kreme and stopped showering to garner awards. I wish Evans had chosen a stronger film to show his grunged-up mettle, because there’s an actor inside that body who’s worth noticing. Comments?

Pretty, Pretty Good

The Evil Queen’s spell transforms Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin, above) into a modern-day teacher in “Once Upon a Time.”

CW]_Y je IfWh[ ABC’s newest drama, ‘Once Upon a Time,’ isn’t just another tale of happily ever after J[b[l_i_ed Suffused with as many fairy-tale cliches as it can cram in, “Once Upon a Time” may seem like a poisoned apple to the blackhearted cynic. But, happily, “Once Upon a Time” turns out to be the fall TV season’s most charming and elegant surprise. The first episode, premiering Sunday at 8 p.m. on ABC, is perfectly imagined, written and performed — which is saying some-

thing when you consider that the lead character is Snow White. Jennifer Morrison co-stars as Emma, a present-day private investigator in Boston whose passion for hunting down bail jumpers fills a void: She has no family, no friends, no love life. Why is that? Well, the audience knows, via a thrilling bit of backstory and prelude in a parallel storybook realm, where the Evil Queen (Lana Parrilla) crashes the happily-ever-after wedding of Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin) and Prince Charming to put her curse on the kingdom. After the birth of Snow and Charming’s daughter, Emma, the queen’s spell descends over the land,

There’s some kooky time-warp stuff going on in “Once Upon a Time,” so it should be no surprise that the series has the fingerprints of a couple “Lost” writers all over it (Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis, “Once Upon a Time’s” creators), and a “consulting producer” credit from “Lost” co-deity Damon Lindelof. On the plus side, nobody does flashbacks and flash-forwards like the “Lost” bunch, which is evident in “Once Upon a Time’s” sense of pace and discovery. On the minus side, things could get tedious for those who still feel burned by “Lost’s” inertia. H.S.

In Storybrooke, Henry lives with his adoptive mother — the Evil Queen. His grandmother, Snow White, now called Mary Margaret Blanchard, is his teacher at school, and has no inkling that she belongs in a castle with Prince Charming. Part of the fun of “Once Upon a Time” is the clever and playful way it inserts the fairy-tale characters into the present day. Most of all, “Once Upon a Time” achieves something rare in our plasticized, commercialized times: It feels homemade and hand-crafted. HANK STUE VER (THE WASHINGTON POST )

out of its way to make a subject that’s almost mind-bogglingly complex not only accessible but emotionally compelling. It’s funny, because what comes out of Peter’s mouth is still pretty inside-basebally. Even so, the film — taking place during one 24-hour period — plays like a thriller. The setup is simple: In order for the firm to survive, it’s going to have to screw over a whole bunch of what one executive, Will (Paul Bettany), calls the “regular people” before anyone else does. J.C. Chandor’s film goes a long way toward making understandable — in vivid, cinematic terms — what exactly happened to make that first big domino fall over. But it also goes a long way toward making something else understandable, and that’s the small ethical compromises that were necessary to set up those dominos in the first place.

There’s a funny, and telling, line in “Margin Call,” a smart, harrowing and mordant drama set inside a fictional Wall Street firm at the tripwire moment just before the 2008 financial collapse. The head of the company, John Tuld (Jeremy Irons), is about to get some bad news of the imminent implosion of his company’s net worth, mostly in the form of mortgage-backed securities. Tuld tells the young numbers cruncher, Peter (Zachary Quinto), who’s explaining the predicament, to break it down simply. “Speak to me as you would to a small child,” Tuld says, “or a golden retriever.” It’s telling, because the film goes

beeaekj [dj[hjW_dc[dj FbWo_d] 50/50 (R, 100 minutes) “50/50” doesn’t seek to pretty up the grim realities of cancer; it offers a refreshingly frank glimpse of a world too often distorted by Hollywood for its own ends, with Joseph Gordon-Levitt’s even-tempered Adam serving as the ideal guide through both its terrors and improbable gifts. Chief among a fatal illness’ unexpected silver linings, “50/50” suggests, are the friends and loved ones who show up, however inexpertly. The most clumsy by far is Adam’s best friend, Kyle (Seth Rogen), who battles his own panic by deciding to turn Adam’s disease into a babe magnet. The question of just who, if anyone, will truly show up for Adam turns out to be the fulcrum of “50/50,” a movie that barely makes filmgoers notice that they’ve come to care deeply, not only about whether Adam makes it, but for the friends he makes in chemo, too.

that there’s anything particularly wrong with this adaptation of Mark Obmascik’s book about competitive birding. In fact, there’s a lot that’s right with it, starting with the cast: Jack Black plays Brad Harris, a 30ish underachiever; Steve Martin is Stu Preissler, a wealthy retired tycoon; and Owen Wilson plays Kenny Bostick, whose most recent Big Year — when birders try to see as many rare species as they can — racked up a record 732 sightings. When Brad and Stu make a run at Kenny’s record, the game of “The Big Year” is afoot. Somehow, the comic chemistry never seems to ignite. Quiet, genial and mild-mannered to a fault, “The Big Year” has the virtue of being deeply un-cynical, but at the expense of propulsive vigor, structural elegance and behavior that’s recognizably human. “The Big Year” has heart and sweetness to spare — but as any birder will tell you, focus and energy count, too. A .H. CONTAGION (PG-13, 102 minutes) Before this movie is over, you will stop unconsciously touching your face. The script — which is reportedly based on solid scientific research — is admirably unsensational. And that’s even considering the

Julianne Hough went from “Dancing With the Stars” to dancing on the big screen in the remake of “Footloose.” tail for Winter. The real star, of course, is Winter, who plays herself and rightfully steals every scene. SEAN O’CONNELL DRIVE (R, 100 minutes) Ryan Gosling delivers a slow, white-hot burn of a performance in “Drive,” a nervy, understated ode to one of Hollywood’s most cherished archetypes, the sad-eyed

man of few words. Gosling and director Nicolas Winding Refn neatly manage the hat trick of paying homage to wheelmen of yore while reinvigorating the genre with style, smarts and flashes of wit. Refn, a Danish director, is known for his love of blood, and when the plot of “Drive” quickens, he finds plenty of chances to indulge in his penchant for lurid, stylized violence. But even his most fetishized flourishes are tempered here. Low-key, sleek and sophisticated, “Drive” provides the visceral pleasures of pulp without sacrificing art. A . H . FOOTLOOSE (PG-13, 113 minutes) Director Craig Brewer has delivered a largely unobjectionable note-for-note facsimile of Herbert Ross’ ode to teenage rebellion, young love and the unfettered joy of movement. The movie opens with an exuberant but also sobering preamble that explains why the Southern town of Bomont has instituted a curfew and banned public dancing and loud music. That law is proposed by the Rev. Shaw Moore. When the streetwise Ren McCormack blows into Bomont, he immediately bristles at the strictures. He’s also drawn Continued on page 32

fact that the virus at the heart of the story has a shorter and more lethal incubation period than anything we’ve previously seen. Gwyneth Paltrow, whose Beth Emhoff is the first to come down with the new disease, is dead minutes into the movie. Hundreds of millions of victims follow, though Beth’s husband, Mitch, played by a schlubby-looking Matt Damon, remains immune. Along with his teenage daughter, Mitch spends most of the movie sensibly holed up inside his house, as the world around him descends into a chaos of looting and Internet-fueled panic. M.O. DOLPHIN TALE (PG, 113 minutes) Winter the dolphin was 3 months old when crab nets entangled her off the shores of Florida’s Gulf coastline. Marine biologists rescued Winter and nursed her back to health, but not before they had to surgically remove her badly damaged tail. The operation that saved Winter’s life actually created fresh problems. By running Winter’s unique biography through the conventional Hollywood filter, Smith reduces “Dolphin Tale” to “Old Yeller” with a blowhole.

based. The original tracked the efforts of a mad scientist to create a set of freakishly conjoined triplets by sewing together three unwilling human subjects, mouth to rectum. Many hard-core horror fans complained that the film was insufficiently graphic in its depiction of the actual procedure. “The Human Centipede II” ought to shut those critics up. The sequel follows Martin, a parking garage attendant obsessed with the first “Centipede” film. Martin intends to replicate the procedure. Martin may be mad, but he is no scientist, and he carries out his butchery with an assortment of nastylooking cutting implements. M.O. THE IDES OF MARCH (R, 101 minutes) The rhetoric, combined with the Shepard Fairey-inspired graphics, suggests that “The Ides of March” will offer fresh, ofthe-moment commentary on post-Obama political culture. But viewers looking for penetrating insight — rather than a well-crafted political potboiler — will come away sorely disappointed. Granted, director and star George Clooney elicits terrific performances from his players, gamely letting Philip Seymour Hoffman, Ryan Gosling and Paul Giamatti take the lion’s share of the film’s most toothsome dialogue. Indeed, “The Ides of March” is so well directed and acted that it’s easy to overlook how dated and shallow it is. Rather than probe the system it abhors, “The Ides of March” is content simply to reassure the audience that it’s still rotting from within. A .H. KILLER ELITE (R. 115 minutes) In this simultaneously silly and overwrought action thriller, Jason Statham plays Danny Bryce, a professional assassin with a soft spot. Living with blood on his hands seems pretty easy for Danny, despite his decision to get out of the business after almost blowing a little girl’s head off. After a mere year’s vacation, however, Danny’s back in the game when he learns that an Arab sheik has taken his BFF and former partner Hunter (Robert De Niro) hostage. It seems that Hunter is being used as leverage to get Danny to carry out one last assignment. As it turns out, Danny’s special-ops victims had been taking orders from a shadowy fellow who gets his marching orders from a bunch of even more shadowy fellows. Needless to say, they want Danny dead. We’ve got another portmanteau word for the movie: unbelievaballistic. M.O. MONEYBALL (PG-13, 133 minutes) Filmmaker Bennett Miller barely puts

Lauren Turner, POPSUGAR

It’s just another day at the office for Mary Elizabeth Winstead, left, and Joel Edgerton, right, in “The Thing” — that is, till a shape-shifting alien starts terrorizing them. a foot wrong in bringing to life the tale of Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane. In 2002, Beane (Brad Pitt) sought to rebuild the slumping A’s and revolutionize baseball recruiting using “Sabermetrics.” Miller has done a superb job of underplaying Pitt’s native magnetism, which nonetheless peeks out enough to dazzle Yale-educated computer whiz Peter Brand (Jonah Hill, playing a character based on Paul DePodesta). The secret of “Moneyball” isn’t just that it makes viewers root for Beane and Brand, but for their motley crew of castoffs. It’s difficult to review “Moneyball” without using the term “home run.” So let’s just say that it rounds all the bases with grace, modesty and a surfeit of heart. A .H. REAL STEEL (PG-13, 126 minutes) Hugh Jackman plays Charlie Kenton, a washedup boxer who is eking out a meager living in which he enters fighting ’bots in matches. The problem is, Charlie isn’t very good at it. Making matters worse is the sudden appearance in Charlie’s life of Max, his 11-year-old son. This sets the stage for two things. On the one hand, it’s the redemption of Charlie’s career, courtesy of Max, a video-game whiz kid. On the other hand, it’s a rapprochement of sorts between the estranged father and his son. Both threads center on Max’s efforts to restore and train a battered robot that he finds in a junkyard. M.O. THE THING (R, 102 minutes) Matthijs van Heijningen Jr.’s “The Thing” acts as

a prequel to John Carpenter’s 1982 cult classic, which itself drew from the 1951 thriller. All three plant their roots in John W. Campbell’s 1938 science-fiction novella. This latest film largely mirrors its predecessors, with a shape-shifting alien terrorizing researchers in an isolated Antarctic base. Because van Heijningen attempts to answer questions raised by Carpenter’s version, it’s difficult to speak of one without referencing the other. Van Heijningen trades methodically established tensions for cheap, easy horror jolts. Screenwriter Eric Heisserer misses multiple opportunities to expand on the mythology of the stranded alien creature. And the bridge scenes meant to connect Van Heijningen’s ending to Carpenter’s beginning are forced, at best. S.O. WHAT ’S YOUR NUMBER? ( R, 106 minutes) The premise of “What’s Your Number?” is statistical. After breaking up with Rick — Ally’s 19th lover — Ally (Anna Faris) reads in a women’s magazine that most women who have had 20 or more sex partners will never get married. Panicking, Ally vows to stay celibate until she can dig up as many of her exes as possible, hoping that one of them has turned into the man of her dreams. Assisting Ally is her neighbor Colin, a sweet but seemingly commitment-phobic hottie. This should tell you a lot. M.O.

The Final Frontier Supposedly, the Rapture will happen today. According to Harold Camping, who previously predicted the Rapture for May 21 and then had to revise the date. We can’t think of a better finalday-on-Earth destination than the Smithsonian’s new exhibit, “The Evolving Universe,” which displays photos taken by space telescopes. Learn about the life cycles of stars and galaxies, or just marvel at the unending awesomeness of the universe.

To celebrate the Day of the Dead on Saturday, the Museum of Health and Medicine is throwing a skull-themed party. Kids can decorate sugar skulls, learn about skulls, make skull masks, bore holes in each other’s skulls and decide on supervillain names, since they’re clearly going to grow up to be supervillains, because what kind of kid is this into skulls? Two of those aren’t on the official schedule. National Museum of Health and Medicine, 2500 Linden Lane, Silver Spring; Sat., 10:30 a.m., free; 301-319-3300, Nmhm.washingtondc.museum.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You can demand more from those around you, and they know youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re asking them to do what can be done â&#x20AC;&#x201D; no more and no less. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You can put a little more spice into your routine simply by inviting someone new to the party. He or she offers more than fun. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You may want to consider the possible meaning of any dreams you remember from last night. Today, symbolism is key. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Once you get started, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to feel swept along by a current that you cannot independently control. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You will be able to serve others by serving yourself, and vice versa. This seeming paradox is likely to carry over to tomorrow.

Yesterdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solution

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Others are sure to respect you for the way you are doing things, even if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree with your motives. Information comes to you quickly. ARIES (March 21-April 19) A poor decision need not affect you for long; once you realize that you made the wrong choice, you can reverse it quickly. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) It may seem a fiction, but what you perceive is likely to be fact today â&#x20AC;&#x201D; no matter what others may think of it. Your reactions are key.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You can get out of an undesirable situation the same way you got into it â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and your own will is likely to prove your greatest strength. CANCER (June 21-July 22) Take care that you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mistake what you see for what is really happening â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for your own perception may, at first, be misleading. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) Others are likely to need you help at regular intervals today. It wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be more than you can give â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll want to give more. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You are a natural leader, but today it may not be your turn; indeed, someone else is likely to jump at the chance to tell you what must be done.

Fill in each column, row and 3x3 box with the digits 1 through 9 without repeating any. The twist in Samurai Sudoku is that the digits that appear in the overlapping boxes must work for both puzzles. A piece of advice to get you started: Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t focus on completing one grid at a time. Keep the whole puzzle in mind as you go, because filling in a number in one grid could give you clues to another.
