Winter to make a comeback Capital Weather Gang predicts 16 to 24 inches of snow this year

JONATHAN NEWTON (THE WASHINGTON POST)

WEATHER Summer seemed to last forever and fall has been fleeting. Our first chance of wintry precipitation is already here, and the winter season itself is just a few weeks away. The last two winters didn’t feature much winter. The winter of 2016-2017 was abnormally warm and practically snowless. Last winter showed more signs of life, with a punishing Arctic blast in late December and early January and then a cold March capped by a snowstorm on spring’s first day. But, overall, it was still milder than average. Winter will try to make a comeback in 2018-2019. Capital Weather Gang predicts somewhat above average snowfall, to the tune of 18 to 24 inches inside the Beltway and up to 30 inches or so in the normally colder areas to the north and west. This is the first snowier-than-average prediction since 2015-2016. February is predicted to be the snowiest month, perhaps followed by March, as a more entrenched

and persistent wintry pattern tries to emerge. Additionally, the chance of a significant snowstorm — 8 to 12 inches or even more — is higher than normal. Capital Weather Gang forecasts seven or eight accumulating snow events in the immediate D.C. metro area, with a couple more in colder suburbs to the north and west. This doesn’t include dustings or ice events, as there are likely to be some of those. The region hasn’t had a cold winter in four years, since

Snow on Thursday? It’s only the second week of November and, already, a wintry mix is in the forecast for Thursday morning. Snow could coat the grass in the D.C. metro area and accumulate up to 2 inches in the higher-elevation suburbs. Measurable November snow hasn’t fallen in Washington in more than two decades. The last time it snowed enough to measure was 1996, and even then it was just twotenths of an inch. (TWP)

2014-2015, and although snowy conditions are favored, temperatures are still predicted to be slightly warmer than average. But the winter may intensify. February is predicted to be 3 to 4 degrees colder than average. Capital Weather Gang does not make specific predictions for March, but it looks like it will be colder than average. Given the prospects for a cold March, this winter may seem quite long. MATT ROSS AND JASON SAMENOW (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Amazon splits decision ARLINGTON Amazon will open major new outposts in Northern Virginia’s Crystal City and in New York City, splitting its much-sought investment of up to 50,000 jobs between the two East Coast sites, the company announced Tuesday. “We are excited to build new headquarters in New York City and Northern Virginia,” Amazon founder and CEO Jeff Bezos said in a statement. “These two locations will allow us to attract world-class talent that will help us to continue inventing for customers for years to come.” (Bezos owns The Washington Post and Express.) Amazon also announced it has selected Nashville for 5,000 jobs as part of a new Center of Excellence for its Operations business, which is responsible for customer fulfillment, transportation, supply chain and similar activities. The choice of Crystal City in Arlington County as one of the centers cements Northern Virginia’s reputation as a magnet for business and will potentially reshape the Washington region into an eastern outpost of Silicon Valley over the next decade. The selections came with a price tag: Virginia Gov. Ralph Northam, D, and Arlington County leaders agreed to give Amazon direct subsidies of $573 million based on the company creating 25,000 jobs with an average wage of $150,000. The state and county will also invest $223 million for transportation improvements that will benefit Amazon and the rest of the community. The money, which is subject to approval by the Virginia General Assembly, also includes $195 million in transportation improvements to nearby Metro stations and Reagan National Airport, as well as for the construction of a

D.C. and Md. leaders applaud decision Other final suitors included D.C., Montgomery County and 16 other jurisdictions Amazon considered since narrowing its list in January. D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan both applauded the announcement. Neither will have to pony up incentives to the company, but experts say both places should see economic gains as a result. “Amazon in Arlington is a win for D.C.,” Bowser said in a statement. “We will continue preparing residents with the skills and knowledge they need for the jobs of the future, including at Amazon.” (TWP)

Virginia Tech plans to build a $1 billion campus in Alexandria focused on innovation, part of the higher education offerings the state offered the company. New York leaders offered more — $1.85 billion, much of it also tied to the company’s job growth and salaries. The decision hands Northam and local leaders the largest economic development prize in a generation — one promising billions of dollars in capital investments alone — but could also put pressure on the region’s already steep housing prices, congested roads and yawning divide between wealthy and low-income residents. According to an agreement between Amazon and Virginia, the company expects to hire 400 people in 2019 and 1,180 in 2020. It expects to create a minimum of 25,000 jobs by 2030 and potentially a total of 37,850 by 2034. “This is a big win for Virginia — I’m proud Amazon recognizes the tremendous assets the Commonwealth has to offer and plans to deepen its roots here,” Northam said. But not everyone was pleased. “Offering massive corporate welfare from scarce public resources to one of the wealthiest corporations in the world at a time of great need in our state is just wrong,” said New York State Sen. Michael Gianaris and New York City Councilman Jimmy Van Bramer, Democrats who represent the Long Island City area, in a joint statement.

Amazon news brings fear of gentrification

J O N AT H A N O ’ C O N N E L L A N D R O B E R T

CRYSTAL CITY A Crystal City condo that had sat on the market suddenly shot up in price by $20,000. Realtors are fielding cold calls from out-of-state investors eager to snap up properties. “But only if Amazon comes to the area,” one Midwestern woman said. Anticipation that the online retail giant would open its new headquarters in the Northern Virginia neighborhood set off a flurry of real estate speculation — even before the official announcement from Amazon on Tuesday morning. But the coming influx of tens of thousands of highly paid tech workers could exacerbate inequality in the region, making it more difficult for renters and first-time home buyers, warn housing advocates and others. “It’s becoming a much less economically and racially diverse county, and a huge employer like Amazon coming in is only going to increase that pressure,” said Philip Tegeler, executive director of the Poverty & Race Research Action Council. “Gentrification is a huge concern for us if Amazon comes, because Crystal City is close to some of the last places where it’s affordable to live, with public transportation and access to jobs,” said Kimberly Armradit, a 27-year-old who lives in the working-class immigrant neighborhood of Arlington Mill. “Where do the day laborers, the barbacks, the janitors go?”

Council votes to limit Airbnb THE DISTRICT The D.C. Council voted unanimously Tuesday to impose some of the tightest limits in the nation on Airbnb and other short-term rental companies after resolving a dispute over how to pay for the legislation. If signed by Mayor Muriel Bowser, D, the measure would prevent D.C. property owners from renting out second homes on a short-term basis and bar them from renting spare rooms or basements in their primary residences for more than 90 days per year. Bowser has said she thinks the bill is too restrictive but has not threatened to veto it — partly because it passed with enough votes to override a veto. Airbnb swiftly denounced the council’s action. “The D.C. Council’s reckless vote today is the latest example of the misleading tactics used to pass fiscally irresponsible home sharing policy,” Airbnb spokeswoman Crystal Davis said. “This Council managed to accomplish the seemingly impossible today, simultaneously depriving D.C. residents of $64 million in supplemental income annually and then sending D.C. taxpayers a bill for $104 million.” Davis said Airbnb would “remain committed to ensuring home sharing is protected in our nation’s capital,” but did not specify what actions the company

might take. The company had previously warned it might take its case directly to voters with a 2020 ballot initiative. On Tuesday Airbnb also filed a lawsuit against the city of Boston over a law that contained some provisions similar to D.C.’s legislation. Supporters of the crackdown said it was necessary in a city where short-term rentals are making an overheated real estate market even more difficult for would-be home buyers and renters. The bill passed after a flurry of last-minute debate among lawmakers over whether it was too strict. Council members

proposed multiple amendments that would have softened some of the legislation’s tougher provisions. Only one of those changes was adopted: a measure allowing

homeowners to apply for an exemption from the bill’s annual cap on the amount of time that a unit can be rented out. The measure passed by the council would take effect Oct. 1, 2019. That would give the city time to create an enforcement and licensing agency, and to resolve inconsistencies under which most short-term rentals are technically in violation of zoning regulations. The bill would affect thousands of D.C. property owners who have turned to “home sharing” to earn income, as well as the tourists and business travelers who use the service to find lodging in the nation’s capital. The council unanimously gave preliminary approval to the bill on Oct. 2. On Oct. 16, however, it unexpectedly delayed the final vote because of concerns over an estimate from D.C. Chief Financial Officer Jeffrey S. DeWitt that the legislation would cost the city $104 million over four years, mostly in lost tax revenue. DeWitt contended that passage of the bill would lead the city government to begin enforcing existing prohibitions on shortterm rentals in residential areas, where between 80 percent and 90 percent of such rentals take place. But D.C. Council Chair Phil Mendelson, who championed the bill, said there was no reason to believe the Department of Consumer and Regulatory Affairs would start enforcing zoning regulations that it has largely ignored.

Mixed review for VA: Health care praised, but access falls short With Veterans Day this week, more than four years after a patient waitlist scandal shamed the Department of Veterans Affairs and almost two years into President Trump’s reign, it is a good time to take stock of the VA. The department continues to generate controversy. The number of fiscal 2017 VA employee complaints to the Office of Special Council over “prohibited personnel practices,” including whistleblower retaliation, far exceeded those of any other agency — including the much larger Defense Department. Inspector General Michael J. Missal said the VA faces a number of challenges, including “failures in program leadership and governance, system deficiencies and inadequate staffing.” He added that “these are often exacerbated by frequent

turnover in key positions.” Frequent turnover in key positions includes the top one. Since Trump took office, the department has had five leaders. That includes Robert Wilkie, who served twice, this spring in an acting capacity and since July as the full-time head. And the department had over 45,000 vacancies in June. Yet veterans continue to praise VA health care. “There are certainly areas that need improvement, such as timely access to veterans benefits and services,” said Garry Augustine, executive director of Disabled American Veterans Washington. “However, our membership feels that the VA is doing a good job overall.” Ryan Gallucci, director of National Veterans Service for the Veterans of Foreign Wars, said: “What we’ve seen over the past months … is that the situation is improving. There are still significant challenges

… but we think the VA is moving in the right direction.” While it’s clear from the endorsements that VA health care is good, access often isn’t. Missal’s office has examined wait times at VA medical facilities and found many patients are waiting longer. His report on an outpatient clinic in Monterey, Calif., for example, said the percentage of new patients waiting more than 30 days for primary care appointments jumped from 1.63 percent in the third quarter of fiscal 2016 to 17.34 percent in the second quarter of fiscal 2017. Wilkie insisted, however, it is getting better. “VA is providing more health care appointments than ever before, authorizing 32.7 million appointments in FY 2017, nearly 2 million more than in the previous year,” he told the Senate in September. Whatever the numbers, no one said VA’s falsification of wait list data remains the problem it was in 2014. “We don’t see any of that,” said Chanin Nuntavong, the American Legion’s director of Veterans Affairs and Rehabilitation.

Color-coded response California’s wildfires underscore how Trump responds to disasters in red vs. blue states

Feud between Trump and CNN heads to court

ROBYN BECK (AFP/GETTY IMAGES)

POLITICS Days after Hurricane Florence rammed into the North Carolina coast, President Trump was on his way to comfort those who lost homes or loved ones. He met with the state’s Democratic governor; he sat for a briefing; he paused to ask residents in New Bern: “Hi, everybody, how’s your house?” When Hurricane Harvey pummeled Texas last year, he traveled to Houston, and when Hurricane Michael hit Florida and Georgia last month, he and the first lady quickly went to the Gulf Coast. But as California has convulsed in tragedy — a mass shooting and an outbreak of wildfires that included the deadliest in the state’s history — the president has not only offered little comfort, he has also heaped on criticism. He’s blamed the forest fires on “gross mismanagement,” threatened to withhold federal payments and instructed officials via Twitter to “Get Smart!” The disparity in the responses to red states and blue states continues to exacerbate the nation’s partisan complexion, injected now even into natural disasters. A president who prizes and craves loyalty more than any other attribute, Trump has divided states into the ones that voted for him and the ones that didn’t, and found the latter group wanting. In California, that has meant state officials are having to fight not only killer fires but also the combustible rhetoric coming from Oval Office. “There is no reason for these massive, deadly and costly forest fires in California except that forest management is so poor,”

President Trump’s initial response to the California fires was to criticize the state for its forest management.

Trump tweeted early Saturday, as fires consumed portions of the state in the north and the south. “Billions of dollars are given each year, with so many lives lost, all because of gross mismanagement of the forests. Remedy now, or no more Fed payments!” Not until 14 hours later did he express sympathy for the victims. California officials responded by pointing out that the latest fires have not started in forests but in suburban areas, fueled by scrub grasses and chaparral dried by the state’s long-standing drought, and driven by blowtorch winds. Moreover, the vast majority of forest land in California is owned and controlled not by the state but by the federal government, under Trump’s control. White House officials did not respond when asked why Trump often appears to be more publicly critical of Democratic areas

Still not over IDENTIFYING VICTIMS: Authorities

that suffer natural disasters, compared with more conservative states. On Monday night, Trump announced he had agreed to sign the major federal disaster declaration that California officials had requested 24 hours earlier.

Spokeswoman: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg improving after fall that fractured ribs, but working from home

Since he took office, Trump has made 111 trips to 26 states that he carried in 2016, while traveling 47 times to 10 states that he lost, according to figures compiled by Mark Knoller of CBS News. Six of those visits have been to areas hit by natural disasters. In 2017, Trump traveled to Texas twice after Hurricane Harvey, and once each to Puerto Rico, severely damaged by Hurricane Maria, and a post-Irma Florida. This year, Trump has made two hurricane-related trips: to the Carolinas after Hurricane Florence, and to Florida and Georgia post-Hurricane Michael. The current California wildfires are the third to have occurred there without a presidential visit. Trump has been to the state once since taking office, to survey prototypes of the wall he wants to build along the southern border. MATT VISER AND SEUNG MIN KIM (THE WASHINGTON POST)

MEDIA CNN on Tuesday sued the Trump administration on behalf of reporter Jim Acosta, asking a court to restore Acosta’s White House press pass after President Trump suspended it last week. The unusual lawsuit, an escalation of Trump’s longrunning war of words with CNN, seeks a judge’s intervention after Trump banished Acosta from the White House grounds for an indefinite period after a brief altercation between Acosta and a White House press aide. In a defiant statement, press secretary Sarah Sanders said the White House will “vigorously” defend itself. She made no mention of Acosta’s interaction with the press aide and instead said the suspension was because Acosta would not yield to other reporters. Other journalists have been widely supportive of Acosta. “The president of the United States should not be in the business of arbitrarily picking the men and women who cover him,” Olivier Knox, president of the White House Correspondents’ Association, said in a statement. Legal experts say CNN has a good chance of winning in court. Disputes have occasionally flared over which members of the press corps are qualified to receive a “hard pass,” which enables reporters to enter and leave the White House grounds each day. But Trump’s revocation of Acosta’s hard pass appears to be unprecedented. PAUL FARHI (TWP)

that hate crimes are on the rise. The report’s release comes about two weeks after a gunman shot to death 11 people inside a Pittsburgh synagogue. The suspect in that shooting, Robert

Bowers, 46, expressed hatred of Jews during the rampage. Bowers was charged with federal hate crimes and other charges. Critics warn that the data may be incomplete, in part because they are based on voluntary reporting by police agencies. The Justice Department said last month that 88 percent of police departments that provided data for the 2016 annual report had reported zero hate crimes. Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein said last month the Justice Department was “taking on the challenging task of addressing the gap in hate crime statistics” and that officials were reviewing the “accuracy of those reports.” MICHAEL BALSAMO (AP)

Juul halts store sales of some e-cigarettes

State challenges Trump’s acting AG appointment

Announcement comes as FDA is expected to crack down on devices

The kilogram gets an update BILL O’LEARY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

HEALTH The nation’s leading e-cigarette maker is halting store sales of some flavors to deter use by kids. The move by Juul Labs Inc. comes ahead of an expected U.S. government crackdown on underage sales of flavored e-cigarettes. Juul said it stopped filling store orders Tuesday for mango, fruit, creme and cucumber pods and will resume sales only to retailers that scan IDs and take other steps to verify a buyer is at least 21. It said it will continue to sell menthol and mint at stores, and sell all flavors through its website. The company also said it would close its Facebook and Instagram accounts, and pledged other steps to make it clear that it doesn’t want kids using its e-cigarettes. Its products are meant to help adult smokers quit regular cigarettes, CEO Kevin Burns said in a statement. “We don’t want anyone who doesn’t smoke, or already use nicotine, to use Juul products,” Burns said. “We certainly don’t want youth using the product. It is bad for public health and it is bad for our mission.” Some vaping products come in flavors with names like bubble

Juul is halting in-store sales of some flavors of its e-cigarette cartridges — including mango, fruit, creme and cucumber — to deter use by kids.

gum and cotton candy, leading to criticism that the industry is marketing e-cigarettes to children. U.S. Food and Drug Administration Commissioner Scott Gottlieb responded to Juul’s announcement via Twitter.

“We’re deeply concerned about the epidemic of youth use of ecigs,” he said. “Voluntary action is no substitute for regulatory steps #FDA will soon take. But we want to recognize actions by JUUL today and urge all manufacturers to immediately implement steps to start reversing these trends.” Last week, an FDA official said the agency plans to bar stores and gas stations from selling most flavored e-cigarettes, but not menthol. It also plans to require online retailers to verify ages, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity, explaining that the details were not final. MIKE STOBBE (AP)

The way scientists define the exact mass of a kilogram is about to change. Until now, its mass has been defined by the granddaddy of all kilos, the Grand K: a golf ball-sized metal cylinder locked in a vault in France. For more than a century, it has been the one true kilogram upon which all others were based. No longer. At a gathering in France on Friday, governments are expected to approve plans to use a scientific formulation to define the exact mass of a kilo. The update should, in time, spare nations the need to occasionally send their official kilos back to France for comparison against the Grand K. The change is expected to affect industries and sciences that require ultra-precise measurements of mass. (AP)

Petco axing artificial pet food ingredients

Demand for healthy, natural food is extending from humans to their pets. Petco announced Tuesday that it will stop selling dog and cat food and treats with artificial colors, flavors and preservatives, both online and at its nearly 1,500 stores. CEO Ron Coughlin said food with those ingredients will start coming off the shelves in January. Eventually, the company plans to expand its ban on artificial ingredients to foods it sells for other animals. (AP)

U.K., EU reach draft Brexit deal LONDON After months of stalled talks, false starts and setbacks, negotiators from Britain and the European Union struck a proposed divorce deal on Tuesday to provide for the U.K.’s smooth exit from the bloc. But the agreement faces major political hurdles starting today, when British Prime Minister Theresa May will try to win the approval of her divided Cabinet for a deal many ministers view with skepticism. The British government confirmed that the negotiating teams had reached a draft agreement and the Cabinet would hold a special meeting this afternoon

to consider the proposal. Its support isn’t guaranteed: May is under pressure from pro-Brexit ministers not to make further concessions to the EU on the key issue of the Irish border. Britain wants to seal a deal this fall, so that Parliament has

time to vote on it before the U.K. leaves the bloc on March 29. The European Parliament also has to approve any agreement, as do all 28 EU nations. The main obstacle has long been how to ensure there are no customs posts or other checks

along the border between the U.K.’s Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland after Brexit. Britain and the EU agree that there must be no barriers that could disrupt businesses and residents on either side of the border and undermine Northern Ireland’s peace process. Irish national broadcaster RTE said the draft agreement involves a common customs arrangement for the U.K. and the EU, to eliminate the need for border checks, with special provisions for Northern Ireland and a review mechanism to oversee its functioning. A sticking point in talks has been Britain’s insistence that any such customs arrangement must be temporary. The EU says that in order to guarantee an open border, it can’t have a time limit.

Melania’s office ventures into staffing turmoil POLITICS The office of first lady Melania Trump is calling for the ouster of deputy national security adviser Mira Ricardel, amid reports of tension between Ricardel and White House officials. “It is the position of the Office of the First Lady that she no longer deserves the honor of serving in this White House,” the first lady’s spokeswoman, Stephanie Grisham, said in a statement Tuesday. A National Security Council spokesman did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A senior White House official said Ricardel is expected to be fired. National security adviser John Bolton tapped Ricardel in April to serve as his deputy, hailing her “track record of successfully managing teams and diverse organizations, as well as addressing complex issues.” Yet Ricardel has argued with the first lady, clashed with Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and berated people in meetings, officials said. The news comes amid broader turmoil within the Trump administration following last week’s midterm elections. But even in an administration marked by frequent turnover, Grisham’s statement stood out. It is unusual for the first lady’s office to weigh in on personnel matters elsewhere in the White House, particularly in the realm of national security. FELICIA SONMEZ AND JOSH DAWSEY (TWP)

THREE POINTERS

Bradley Beal had 21 points Monday to begin a five-game homestand with a win over the Magic.

A path to bounce back A difficult early season schedule has turned more favorable for the 4-9 Wizards WIZARDS Almost a month into the season, the Wizards are a disappointing 4-9. But the schedule provides some reason for optimism: They began a five-game homestand Monday with a victory over the Magic — their second win in a row — and face the lowly Cavaliers tonight. On Friday they play the 6-8 Nets, who lost breakout player Caris LeVert to a dislocated foot Monday. “We feel like this is a good homestand that can turn everything around,” Wizards guard Austin Rivers said. Although five months remain on the regular-season calendar, the Wizards already have felt the sting of the schedule. Over the first four weeks of the

season, Washington experienced the third-toughest strength of schedule, according to NBA.com writer John Schuhmann. Eight of their first 12 games came on the road, and almost immediately, the season went sideways. Early lowlights included a 51-point blitzing by Warriors star Stephen Curry and locker-room discord over anonymous players criticizing teammates for allegedly having personal “agendas.” Then last week, the Wizards found a way to muddle up this current stretch of seven consecutive games against under-.500 teams by losing in Dallas on Wednesday and then failing to recover from a 25-point hole in Orlando on Friday.

*Entering Tuesday’s game

Two seasons ago, the Wizards turned a poor November into a distant memory by pulling off the greatest single-season turnaround in NBA history, winning 49 games after beginning the season 2-8. This year, the hole

expanded to 2-9, but Washington can’t keep expecting to make history while salvaging seasons. Instead, the Wizards can help themselves now. That’s the belief of center Dwight Howard, who is pushing a new mantra for the Wizards: “Nobody’s going to remember November.” The team is 3-3 since Howard made his Wizards debut Nov. 2 after recovering from a buttocks injury. He is averaging 13.0 points and 9.3 rebounds. Proclaimed Howard: “It’s early in the season and by the time the season ends, nobody’s body’s going to remember how ow we started. They’re going g to be happy with how we finished.” ished.”

In many seasons, he would be the top choice, but the competition is unusually stiff. At 25, he’ll have more opportunities.

2 Max Scherzer, Nats 18-7, 2.53 ERA, 0.91 WHIP

His stellar statistics, including a league-leading 300 strikeouts, could give him his fourth Cy Young award. But probably not ...

1 Jacob deGrom, Mets 10-9, 1.70 ERA, 0.91 WHIP

Poor hitting and relief pitching hurt his record, but his ERA easily bested Nola’s, which was No. 2 in the NL. He had 269 K’s, second to Scherzer.

Wilson, who appealed ealed six weeks ago, had served 16 games, so he was eligible to face the Wild in a game that ended after Express’ press’ deadline Tuesday.

Injury to Nets’ LeVert isn’t nearly as bad as was feared

Deadline passes, so Bell can’t return this season

Rams-Chiefs game moved from Mexico City to L.A.

The Nets said Tuesday that their leading scorer, swingman Caris LeVert, dislocated his right foot but suffered no fractures Monday and could return this season. That’s far better than what was feared when his leg appeared to bend in a gruesome manner after he leaped to block a shot in the first half against the Timberwolves. “While the optics of this injury may have appeared to be more severe, surgery will not be required,” team orthopedist Dr. Martin O’Malley said. LeVert, who battled foot injuries at Michigan before emerging as a first-round pick in 2016, has had a breakout season, averaging 18.4 points. (AP)

The NFL’s deadline for running back Le’Veon Bell to sign his franchiseplayer deal, join the Steelers and be eligible to play this season came and went at 4 p.m. Tuesday. Bell remained a no-show, meaning that he will sit out the full season in his contract standoff with the team, and the Steelers (6-2-1) will chase a Super Bowl without any chance of getting a late-season boost from Bell. The Steelers will continue to rely on James Conner, who has become a standout in Bell’s absence with 771 yards rushing and 10 touchdowns. Bell’s teammates were critical this season of his decision to hold out. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The NFL on Tuesday moved the Rams’ Monday night game with the Chiefs from Mexico City to Los Angeles because of the condition of the field at Azteca Stadium. The league said it determined that the recently re-sodded field at Mexico City’s historic venue “does not meet NFL standards for playability and consistency, and will not meet those standards by next Monday.” Recent rains and several big events at Azteca combined to damage the field. The Rams, the official host team, and Chiefs both are 9-1. Some Rams players were against the trip because their families are dealing with the California wildfires. (AP)

CRITIC’S NOTEBOOK

GETTY IMAGES/EXPRESS ILLUSTRATION

A tragic reminder of life lost

The evolutionary road Imagine Dragons soar toward experimentation on the band’s new album, ‘Origins’ ALBUM REVIEW Do Imagine Dragons ever sleep? Apparently not. Less than a year and a half after releasing the double-platinum album “Evolve” and crisscrossing the globe on a 100-date tour, the band is back with a dozen new songs. Released Friday, “Origins” is supposed to be a companion to “Evolve.” It’s an intriguing follow-up, offering more textures and sonic experiments. If “Evolve” was the band stalking around as an arena powerhouse, “Origins” is its quirky little sister, making cool stuff in her bedroom. Don’t let the first single, “Natural,” u a , fool ool you. That slice of

bombastic, fist-pumping bravado seems to indicate more of the same on “Origins.” But the band drifts into other areas, like the blissed-out summer jam “Cool Out,” which could be on a DNCE album, and the gloriously anarchic, disruptive “Digital,” which plays with dubstep and chops itself into pieces. The album sees the Dragons reteaming with producers Alex da Kid and Mattman & Robin — folks who have delivered some of the band’s biggest hits — but, to everyone’s credit, they’re not doing more of the same. “Bullet in a Gun” is fresh with unpredictable electronic flourishes, and the club-ready “Only” has interesting int tempo shifts and

Virtual insanity On their new record, “Origins,” Imagine Dragons take aim at a dehumanizing digital world. Lead singer Dan Reynolds notes on the closing track, “Love,” that everyone tunes out shocking news nowadays as we just “put on our headphones.” He also screams: “I’m not a part of your machine/ I am the machine.” M.K.

unexpected layered parts, as if Imagine Dragons are fighting monotony this time. “West Coast” is basically a folky tune that could happily sit on a Lumineers album — how’s that for predictable?

Lyrically, “Origins” dwells on modern-day alienation and the band’s own uncomfortable relationship to its fame. On “Zero,” lead singer Dan Reynolds reminds everyone that he once felt empty and unreal. On the aforementioned “Bullet in a Gun,” Gun, he notes sadly, “To make a name you pay the price.” Later, ter, the words “sellout, sellout, sellout!” ellout!” are heard. The album extends the e band’s flirtation with Charles s Darwin — taking its name e from “On the Origin of Species” es” and lve.” In coming right after “Evolve.” some ways, the names should be reversed: “Origins” shows a sound that really is evolving. volving.

Themes of death, drugs and isolation loom large over every languorous turn of “Come Over When You’re Sober, Pt. 2,” a posthumous album from Lil Peep, released Friday. The rapper died of an overdose in November 2017 at age 21, and his lyrics give a glimpse into the tragedy. “I think I’m gonna die alone inside my room,” Peep sings on the standout track “Life Is Beautiful.” When he says “I gotta go right now” on “Broken Smile (My All),” his words carry more weight. As a whole, the album serves as a soft bed for wallowing in dark thoughts. MELANIE J. SIMS (AP)

Movies and TV shows rarely film in the District — but that’s changing FILM It’s a hobby among D.C. locals: picking apart glaring geographic and architectural inaccuracies in movies and television shows set in Washington. One of the most famous is the 1987 film “No Way Out,” in which Kevin Costner takes a subway

from Georgetown. No subway station has ever existed in the tony neighborhood. The opening credits of the new Amazon show “Jack Ryan” show the title character biking to work via a route that makes no geographic sense. The reason for this disconnect is simple: Few TV shows or movies actually film in Washington. That’s something District officials are trying to change. They scored one success last summer with the filming of

D.C. trying to woo Hollywood shoots D.C. got a 1984 makeover for “Wonder Woman” filming this past summer.

“Wonder Woman 1984” in the District, but they have difficulties to overcome. Other cities offer more generous tax incentives, and those seeking film permits in D.C. often contend with several

overlapping police forces. But Angie M. Gates, director of Washington’s Office of Cable Television, Film, Music and Entertainment, says 2016 was a turning point. That’s when Mayor

Muriel Bowser reinstituted Washington’s tax rebate program. A production spending more than $250,000 filming in D.C. can apply for a rebate of up to 35 percent of taxable expenditures, with incentives for hiring local residents. “These are game-changing times for us,” Gates says. Author and filmmaker George Pelecanos says productions like the “Wonder Woman” sequel boost Washington’s reputation, but what would really help the city is television. “What you need is an ongoing series that lasts for five or six years,” he says. “We need to get it to the point where people are working all year long for many years.” ASHRAF KHALIL (AP)

“In the context of Serena Williams, a person who has been mocked for her appearance and deliberately misgendered for years ... this ain’t it.”

@CRISSLES, tweeting about designer Virgil Abloh putting “woman” in quotation marks on GQ’s cover naming Serena Williams its Woman of the Year. While some Twitter users noted that Abloh previously worked with Williams on her U.S. Open outfits and that his style is to use quotes, others questioned the punctuation, since Williams has often received sexist and racist criticism of her appearance. @kyalbr suggested “Serena” could have been put in quotes as a play on people not understanding her.

They include a Trump helicopter, a golfing Santa Claus and models of Trump properties. Eric Trump’s tweet led to jokes about the ornaments, including the one above — a reference to President Trump’s recent cancellation of his visit to a U.S. military cemetery in France due to rain.

The night before her New Orleans show, Aguilera stopped by Cafe Negril and was caught on video by an eyewitness asking the bar’s resident band to perform but was eventually turned down. “I’m sorry Christina, I just didn’t recognize you!” the band’s lead singer told WGNO.

Lorde accused Kanye West and Kid Cudi on Monday of stealing her stage design. On Instagram, the singer shared photos comparing her 2017 Coachella set with the rappers’ set at Camp Flog Gnaw Carnival last weekend. Both featured a glass-enclosed box suspended off the ground. “It’s flattering when other artists feel inspired by [my work], to the extent that they choose to try it on themselves,” she wrote. Set designer Es Devlin, who’s worked with Lorde and West, responded with an Instagram photo of a floating box she made for the English National Opera in 2007. (EXPRESS)

In the December/ January issue of Allure, Nicole Kidman said that she does not consider herself to be a celebrity despite having a long career in Hollywood. “I’m not a movie star. I feel like I’m an actor. Beyonce is a celebrity. And that’s a much bigger thing,” she told the magazine for its cover story. Kidman also noted that she considered her work to be “far more niche” than simply being a celebrity. (EXPRESS)
