The former Massachusetts governor is ramping up efforts in Iowa after playing it cautiously. He plans to return Wednesday after skipping a multi-candidate forum Saturday.

The former House speaker spent the bulk of his three-day trip to Iowa last week on the defensive including the roughly $1.6 million he received from Freddie Mac as a consultant.

The Georgia businessman greeted a crowd of more than 200 at a Dubuque, Iowa, restaurant Tuesday on just his second trip to the state in the past three months.

The Texas congressman returned to Iowa at weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s end to find he was drawing sizable crowds at restaurants and at centers in small Iowa towns such as Vinton and Anamosa.

The Texas governor is scrambling to get back on track after a damaging last few weeks by accelerating his already aggressive TV advertising schedule in Iowa.

In Iowa, a Run For Undecideds GOP hopefuls scramble to influence voters ahead of the January caucuses 7dWceiW" ?emW The race for the Republican presidential nomination is deeply unsettled with an anything-can-happen feel six weeks before Iowans start the state-by-state process of choosing a GOP challenger for President Obama.

Hoping to sway the many voters who are still undecided, most of the contenders visited the state in the past week and the pace of campaigning is certain to accelerate

Expect mailboxes filled with brochures and repeated visits by candidates to diners, town squares and other must-stop venues. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People are getting close to decision time,â&#x20AC;? said former Pennsylvania senator Rick Santorum, one of several candidates whose bids depend on a strong Iowa showing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to see some coalescing in the next couple of weeks.â&#x20AC;?

gamut. Languishing far behind were Rick Perry and Michele Bachmann, who at one point enjoyed huge bursts of support.

Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s outcome matters because it will shape the contest in New Hampshire, which holds its primary Jan. 10, and in states beyond.

Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, is hoping that social conservatives in Iowa who make up the GOPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s base will splinter their support among the crowded field of candidates who are considered more conservative than himself.

Nearly all his rivals, promoting themselves as a viable alternative to Romney, gathered on one stage to discuss how their religious faith influences their public life before a large and influential audience of social conservatives.

Cain and Gingrich seem just as poised to break out of the pack as they are to fade.

Both are seen as attractive for a Republican electorate craving a candidate who will take it to Obama in a no-holds-barred style.

But both also are trying hard to weather increased scrutiny. THOMAS BEAUMONT (AP)

Police Move to Tune Out Public More departments encrypt radio chatter in bid for privacy

J^[h[Êi Wd 7ff \eh J^Wj One iPhone app, Scanner 911, offers on its website the chance to “listen in while police, fire and EMS crews work day & night.” Apple’s iTunes’ store advertises several similar apps. One promises to keep users abreast of crime in their communities. Though iPhones don’t directly pick up police signals, users can listen to nearly real-time audio from police dispatch channels through streaming services, said Matthew Blaze, director of the Distributed Systems Laboratory at the University of Pennsylvania and a researcher of security and privacy in computing and communications systems. (AP)

MWi^_d]jed Police departments across the country are working to shield their radio communications from the public as cheap, user-friendly technology has made it easy for anyone to use handheld devices to keep tabs on officers responding to crimes.

The practice of encryption has grown more common from Florida to New York and west to California, with law enforcement officials saying they want to keep criminals from using officers’ internal chatter to evade them. But journalists and neighborhood watchdogs say open communications ensure that the public receives information that can be vital to its safety.

D.C. police moved to join the trend this fall after what Chief Cathy Lanier said were several incidents involving criminals and smartphones. Carjackers operating on Capitol Hill were believed

to have been listening to communications because they were captured only once police stopped broadcasting over the radio, she said.

“Whereas listeners used to be tied to stationary scanners, new technology has allowed people to listen to police communications on a smartphone from anywhere,” Lanier testified at a D.C. Council committee hearing this month.

The transition has put police departments at odds with the news media, who say their newsgathering is impeded when they can’t use scanners to monitor developing crimes and disasters. Journal-

ists and scanner hobbyists argue that police departments already have the capability to communicate securely and should be able to adjust to the times without reverting to full encryption. And they say alert scanner listeners have even helped police solve crimes.

“If the police need to share sensitive information among themselves, they know how to do it,” Phil Metlin, news director of WTTGTV, in Washington, said at the council hearing. “Special encrypted channels have been around for a long time; so have cellphones.”

This Notice informs the public that the Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia (“Commission”) seeks input on the rate application submitted by the Potomac Electric Power Company (“Pepco”) requesting authority to increase existing distribution service rates and charges for electric service in the District of Columbia. Pepco proposes a revenue requirement increase of $42.1 million. Pepco is the sole distributor of electric power to homes and businesses in the District; hence the Commission will set Pepco’s distribution service rates in this rate case and not the cost of electricity itself.

• Pepco requests authority to earn an 8.64% Rate of Return, including a Return on Equity of 10.75%.

Per the PSC’s decision in Formal Case No. 1076, rendered in March 2010, Pepco’s current allowed Rate of Return is 8.01%, including a Return on Equity of 9.625%.

• Pepco proposes a Reliability Investment Recovery Mechanism (“RIM”) surcharge that would provide for annual rate adjustments to recover the reliability related costs of certain investments in Pepco’s distribution system.

• Pepco seeks cost recovery for its investments in Advanced Metering Infrastructure (“AMI”).

• Pepco proposes to recover incremental customer care expenses relating to initiatives that Pepco is undertaking to enhance customer service. Pepco states that this initiative includes four major components: personnel, telecommunication infrastructure (hardware and software), storm readiness, and customer education/market research.

• Pepco’s proposals would add about $5.00 to the monthly bill for the typical residential customer and increase the minimum monthly customer charge from $6.65 per month to $10.40 for the standard (R) class and from $6.65 to $12.39 for the All-Electric residential (AE) class.

The Commission published a Public Notice on July 22, 2011, regarding this application in the D.C. Register to allow interested persons to intervene in Formal Case No. 1087, the formal case established to adjudicate Pepco’s application. The Public Notice can be accessed online at www.dcpsc.org or viewed at any public library. A hard copy of the Public Notice can be obtained by calling (202) 626-5150.

The Commission will convene eight community hearings at the following locations on the specified dates: Ward 1 Columbia Heights Recreation Center 1480 Girard Street, NW Monday, November 21, 2011, 11:00 am Ward 3 Chevy Chase Recreation Center 5601 Connecticut Ave, NW Friday, November 18, 2011, 11:00 am Ward 5 Bethesda Baptist Church 1808 Capitol Ave, NE Monday, November 21, 2011, 6:30 pm Ward 7 Deanwood Recreation Center 1350 49th Street, NE Saturday, November 19, 2011, 11:00 am

Those who wish to testify at the community hearings should contact the Commission Secretary by the close of business three business days prior to the date of the hearing by calling (202) 626-5150.

Representatives of organizations shall be permitted a maximum of five minutes for oral presentations.

Individuals shall be permitted a maximum of three minutes for oral presentations. If an organization or an individual is unable to offer comments at the community hearings, written statements may be submitted to the Public Service Commission of the District of Columbia, 1333 H Street, NW, Suite 200, West Tower, Washington, and D.C. 20005.

Any person who is deaf or hearing-impaired, and cannot readily understand or communicate in spoken English, and persons with disabilities who need special accommodations in order to participate in the hearing, must contact the Commission Secretary by close of seven business days prior to the date of the hearing. Persons who wish to testify in Spanish, Chinese, Amharic, or Korean must also contact the Commission Secretary by close of business three business days before the day of the hearing. The number to call to request special accommodations and interpretation services is (202) 626-5150.

U.S. Probing Weapons In Libya for Ties to Iran

Protesters lob gas canisters and stones at security forces during skirmishes on Sunday in Cairo’s Tahrir Square, the epicenter of the country’s pro-democracy movement.

The Obama administration is investigating whether Iran supplied the Libyan government of Moammar Gadhafi with hundreds of special artillery shells for chemical weapons that Libya kept secret for decades, U.S. officials said.

The shells, which Libya filled with highly toxic mustard agent, were uncovered in recent weeks in Libya. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Unrest in Cairo Hits a Flashpoint Protesters’ tents set ablaze as violence renews ahead of vote 9W_he Egyptian soldiers and police set fire to protest tents in Cairo’s Tahrir Square and fired tear gas and rubber bullets in a major assault Sunday to drive out thousands demanding that the military rulers quickly transfer power to a civilian government. At least 11 protesters were killed and hundreds were injured.

It was the second day of clashes marking an escalation of tensions

8WYaijeho The violence in Cairo began Saturday when security forces stormed a sit-in at Tahrir Square staged by protesters wounded in clashes during the country’s uprising this year. The protesters have demanded a specific date be set for the military, which took over from Hosni Mubarak on Feb. 11, to fulfill its pledge to hand power to an elected civilian government. (AP)

on Egypt’s streets a week before the first elections since the ouster of longtime leader Hosni Mubarak in February. The military took over the country, promising a swift transition to civilian rule. But the protesters who led the uprising have grown angry with the ruling generals and suspect they are trying to cling to power.

The military-backed Cabinet said in a statement that elections set to begin on Nov. 28 would take place on time and thanked the police for their “restraint,” language that is likely to enrage the protesters even more.

“We’re not going anywhere,” protester Mohammed Radwan said after security forces tried to push

the crowds out of Tahrir.

Street battles continued into the night. The clashes were some of the worst since the uprising ended Feb. 11. They were also one of only a few violent confrontations to involve the police, a hated symbol of Mubarak’s regime, since the uprising.

Many Egyptians are anxious about what the impending elections will bring. Specifically, they worry that stalwarts of Mubarak’s ruling party could win a significant number of seats in the next parliament because the military did not ban them from running for office, as requested by activists.

Cancer Risk Hazy in Fukushima

Even if the worst nuclear accident in 25 years leads to many people developing cancer, we may never find out. Looking back on those early days of radiation horror, that may sound implausible.

But the ordinary rate of cancer is so high, and our understanding of the effects of radiation so limited, that any increase in cases from the Fukushima nuclear plant disaster may be undetectable.

Several experts inside and outside Japan told The Associated Press that cancers caused by radiation may be too few to show up in large population studies, like the 30-year survey of 2 million people

believe radiation doses most Japanese people have gotten fall in a “low-dose” range, where the effect on cancer remains unclear.

The cancer risk may be absent, or too small to detect, said Dr. Fred Mettler, a radiologist who led a study of health effects from the 1986 Chernobyl disaster.

That’s partly because cancer is one of the top killers in industrialized nations. Odds are high that if you live long enough, you will die of cancer. The average lifetime cancer risk is about 40 percent.

Japanese officials say mental health problems caused by excessive fear of radiation are prevalent and posing a bigger problem than actual risk of cancer. (AP)

8WYaijeho Japan recently announced it plans to study the health risks of the low-dose radiation from the March 11 disaster-crippled Fukushima nuclear plant. Officials estimate it leaked about one-sixth as much radiation as Chernobyl did in 1986. Still, Japan’s Cabinet this month endorsed a plan to halve contamination levels within the next two years.

That could mean thousands of cancers under the radar in a study of millions of people, or it could be virtually none. Some of the dozen experts interviewed said they

D.C. Mayor Set to Shake Up Staff Gray plans to add 2 congressional staff to his administration MWi^_d]jed Mayor Vincent C. Gray is shaking up his administration by hiring two congressional staffers to lead his communications and to help oversee his executive office, according to several sources on the mayor’s staff.

Pedro Ribeiro, a spokesman for Rep. Zoe Lofgren, D-Calif., will be the new director of communications while Sheila Bunn, chief of staff to Delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton, will be Gray’s new depu-

ty chief of staff.

Gray, a Democrat, is expected to make the announcement at a news conference Monday, after several weeks of speculation that he wanted to realign his staff and regroup as his administration’s missteps continued to dominate news cycles.

In a brief interview last week, Gray declined to reveal specifics about the changes, but he said he would not describe them as a “shake-up.”

He said no one was being fired or asked to resign, actions he has taken previously.

Current communications director Linda Wharton Boyd will move to the Department of Health to

act as a special assistant and help lead high-profile projects, such as a strategic plan to prevent substance abuse.

“It’s a great role for her because it allows her to use all of her contacts to get people out of their silos,” said a member of Gray’s staff who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak.

Ribeiro is expected to take a more fast-paced approach to the news of the day and to be more strategic and focused than Boyd, an aide said.

“The metabolism of the Hill is sort of more what we need,” the aide said. NIKITA STEWART ( THE WASH-

FWij <e_Xb[i Gray’s public relations problems began right after he took office:

As he touted fiscal responsibility, reports showed he paid salaries higher than that of predecessors in Adrian Fenty’s administration.

Sulaimon Brown, a former mayoral candidate whose allegations that he was paid and promised a job to disparage Fenty last year, are now at the center of a federal probe.

In September, Deputy Chief of Staff Andi Pringle resigned after days on the job, after news that she had voted in a D.C. election though she had moved to Maryland.

The Montgomery County Planning Board asked Maryland transit officials Thursday to consider moving a Bethesda station for a future Purple Line to try to better accommodate a popular biking and running trail in a tunnel beneath Wisconsin Avenue.

Board members said the state’s latest estimate that it would cost $40.5 million to rebuild the trail inside the tunnel would make it too expensive. However, they said they didn’t want to pursue a far less expensive plan to rebuild the trail along local streets through crowded downtown Bethesda unless they had exhausted other possibilities for keeping it in the tunnel.

The board asked the Maryland Transit Administration to report back to the county council on the costs, risks and impacts of two options for keeping the trail alone inside the tunnel beneath Wisconsin and two office buildings on either side.

One proposal would build the Bethesda light-rail station for the 16-mile Purple Line just east of the tunnel, perhaps using county land at Elm Street Park. Another would build it in the tunnel but east of Wisconsin, sparing the most problematic of the two office buildings on the western side.

The state would have to buy and tear down the Air Rights building on the east side of Wisconsin but could recoup some of the cost by redeveloping the land, board members said.

• Full-time and part-time tracks

Montgomery County planners and DOT officials on Nov. 3 tour the tunnel beneath Wisconsin Avenue, one of the sites of the proposed Purple Line transit system route.

8WYaijeho County officials have long said they intended for the trail — the Georgetown Branch extension of the Capital Crescent Trail — to be rebuilt inside the tunnel as part of the state’s $1.93B Purple Line project. The trail’s costs would be the county’s responsibility. Federal transit officials considering the light-rail project for federal funding recently approved it for preliminary engineering. MTA officials told the county last month that they had discovered that keeping the trail in the tight confines of the tunnel would cause costs to jump from an estimated $65Mto about $100M. (T WP)

Maryland transit planners have said they want to run street-level Purple Line trains in the tunnel to provide a direct connection, via elevators, to Bethesda’s Red Line Metrorail station below.

“This is a decision of real significance,” said Francoise Carrier, chairman of the Planning Board.

“Representations have been made about how the trail would be treated, and now it turns out to be very difficult and expensive.”

If moving the Bethesda station proves too costly or difficult, board members said, a county work group should study ways to protect walkers and cyclists if the trail must be rerouted onto local streets. K ATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST )

HW_i[ j^[ HWj[i0 Arlington County taxicab riders will pay 10 cents more per mile in 2012, the County Board decided Saturday, and passengers younger than 12 who accompany a full-fare customer will get a free ride. The fare increase was intended to help cabbies who have gone more than three years without one. The board also declined to take the staff recommendation to raise the $1 extra-passenger fee to $1.50.

Retailers expect nearly half of all shoppers to make at least one online purchase this holiday season and more than a third to use the Internet to compare prices or research products.

But those who wouldn’t think of leaving their wallet or purse unattended while in a brick-and-mortar store are often far less careful when searching for bargains on the Web. Whether you’re using a computer or a smartphone, before you enter your credit card information, make sure you’re shopping safely.

If your password contains a simple combination like “abc123,” or word like “password” or something similarly easy, you’re at risk — and you’re not alone. Cybersecurity company Imperva examined 32 million passwords exposed in a breach last year and found that the most commonly used password was “123456,” followed by “12345.”

A strong password should include at least five letters, numbers and punctuation marks. It’s best to avoid using your address, birth date, phone number or your pet’s name when creating a password. And it’s not safe to use the

Deficit Panel at a Loss MWi^_d]jed A special deficit-reduction supercommittee appears likely to admit failure on Monday, unable or unwilling to compromise on a mix of spending cuts and tax increases required to meet its assignment of saving taxpayers at least $1.2 trillion over the coming decade.

The panel is sputtering to a close after two months of talks in which they were never able to get close to bridging a fundamental divide over how much to raise taxes to address a budget deficit that forced the government to borrow 36 cents of every dollar it spent last year.

Members of the bipartisan panel, formed during the summer crisis over raising the government’s borrowing limit, spent their time on Sunday in testy performances on television talk shows, blaming each other for the impasse.

Most of the lawmakers spoke of their efforts in the past tense and said it would take something akin to a miracle to reach a deal, which unofficially must be unveiled before midnight Monday to meet the panel’s parliamentary rules.

The lawmakers, six Democrats and six Republicans, had been tasked with finding the savings from future borrowing by the Treasury — or else a punitive set of $1.2 trillion in automatic spending cuts would kick in at the start of 2013, with half coming from national security budgets. Those automatic cuts should be enough to assuage jittery financial markets, which have been on a roller-coaster ride since the summer’s debt standoff in the United States and the struggle to tame even greater fiscal quagmires in Europe.

Aides said any remaining talks had broken off.

?dj[dZ[Z FWj^ Del$ () The supercommittee must approve a plan to reduce the deficit by at least $1.2 trillion (and, ideally, at least $1.5 trillion). A majority vote (7 of 12) is needed.

:[Y$ ( The committee has to submit its report to the White House, the full Congress and the public in legislative language, so everyone knows how the bill would read.

:[Y$ () Congress must vote to accept or reject the deal with no amendments; no filibusters are allowed in the Senate.

“There is one sticking divide, and that’s the issue of what I call shared sacrifice,” said panel co-chair Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., on CNN’s “State of the Union.”

“The wealthiest Americans, who earn over a million a year, have to share, too. And that line in the sand, we haven’t seen Republicans willing to cross yet,” she said.

Republicans said Democrats’ demands on taxes were simply too

great and weren’t accompanied by large enough proposals to curb the explosive growth of so-called entitlement programs like Medicare and Medicaid.

“If you look at the Democrats’ position, it was, ‘We have to raise taxes.

We have to pass this jobs bill, which is another almost half-trillion dollars. And we’re not excited about entitlement reform,’” countered Republican Sen. Jon Kyl of Arizona on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

M^Wj _\ J^[o <W_b5 Failure by the panel would trigger about $1 trillion over nine years in automatic across-theboard spending cuts to a wide range of domestic programs and the Pentagon budget, starting in 2013, according to the Congressional Budget Office. This action, called a “sequester,” would also generate $169 billion in savings from lower interest costs on the national debt. The panel’s failure also would set up a fight within a battle-weary, dysfunctional Congress over renewing a 2 percentage point payroll tax cut and jobless benefits averaging about $300 a week for the long-term unemployed, both of which are set to expire at the end of the year. Both proposals are part of President Obama’s $447 billion jobs plan. (AP)

Over the past couple of weeks, the two sides have made a variety of offers and counter-offers, starting with a more-than $3 trillion plan from Democrats that would have increased tax revenues by $1.3 trillion in exchange for further cuts in agency budgets, a change in the measure used to calculate cost-of-living increases for Social Security beneficiaries, and curbs on the growth of Medicare and Medicaid.

The panel faces a Wednesday deadline. Under the committee’s rules, any plan would have to be unveiled Monday to allow time for drafting and assessing by the Congressional Budget Office, but it appeared that Murray and co-chair Rep. Jeb Hensarling of Texas would instead issue a statement declaring the panel’s work at a close, aides said.

“Put a bow on it. It’s done,” said an aide to a supercommittee Republican.

Redskins Go Down With a Fight Dallas rivalry brings out a better effort, but it’s not enough

The amount of time, in minutes and seconds, the Redskins went without holding a lead till late in the second quarter Sunday. The stretch began Oct. 4.

Bailey’s winning kick was set up

by Tony Romo’s 26-yard completion to Dez Bryant on third-and-15 after Washington’s Graham Gano was barely wide right on a 52-yard field-goal attempt on the opening possession of overtime.

After rolling to double-digit wins that put the Cowboys on the heels of the NFC East-leading New York Giants, Romo and the Cowboys (6-4) had to rally in the second half against a team that has spent more than a month in the doldrums. His two fourth-quarter touchdown passes were vintage Romo, scrambling to buy time to toss a 7-yard, game-tying score

Redskins QB Rex Grossman dives into the end zone in the second quarter of Sunday’s game at FedEx Field against Dallas.

H[fehj 9WhZ BEST CALL: In the second quar-

ter from the 4-yard line, Rex Grossman dialed his own number with an empty backfield and dove for a TD. WORST CALL: In OT, with the Cowboys getting ready to kick the game-winning FG, Mike Shanahan insisted on “icing” the kicker by calling timeout. He didn’t see Romo also calling a timeout they didn’t have, a penalty, which would have pushed them outside of FG range.

WORST ADJUSTMENT: Why can’t Roy Helu get consistent snaps?

There’s still some steam left in the Dallas-Washington rivalry, enough to create an overtime nail-biter even when one team is on a roll and the other is struggling.

Dan Bailey’s 39-yard field goal 9:21 into the extra period Sunday decided the Cowboys’ 27-24 victory, their third straight win and the Redskins’ sixth-consecutive defeat.

to Laurent Robinson before rolling left to spot a wide-open Jason Witten for a 59-yard go-ahead TD with 8:48 to play.

But Washington came back, with Rex Grossman leading an 89-yard drive capped by a 4-yard touchdown pass to Donte’ Stallworth with 14 seconds left in regulation.

Romo was due for a sack or two, and the Cowboys quarterback went down four times. DeMarco Murray couldn’t continue at such a torrid pace forever, and he was held to 73 yards. The Redskins’ offensive ineptitude couldn’t go on forever, so it was inevitable they actually reach the end zone while the game was somewhat competitive.

Nevertheless, the Redskins (3-7) are mired in their longest skid since their 0-7 start in 1998. As a consolation, they scored more points than they had in their previous three games combined (20).

Grossman completed 25 of 38 passes for 289 yards with two touchdowns and one interception. Washington’s Jabar Gaffney caught seven passes for 115 yards and a touchdown. (AP)

It’s All SEC in Latest AP Poll Conference’s powers hold top 3 spots after a slew of surprises

The fourth-year running back paced the Lions in a shootout, 49-35 win over the Panthers at Ford Field Sunday. Smith finished with 140 yards on 16 rushes and found the end zone twice.

Lions 49, Panthers 35

The latest AP college football poll gives a new meaning to the term “all-SEC.” The Southeastern Conference is the second league to have the top three spots in the rankings all to itself.

No. 1 LSU held the top spot for the ninth-straight week in Sunday’s rankings, and after a weekend when three other top-five teams lost, Alabama moved up a spot to No. 2 and Arkansas jumped three places to No. 3.

Oklahoma and Colorado from the Big Eight were 1-2-3.

And this time it’s not just one conference, but one division (the SEC West) holding down the top spots.

No. 4 Stanford from the Pac-12 is the first non-SEC team in the rankings, and Oklahoma State dropped from No. 2 to No. 5 after its first loss of the season. The Cowboys lost 37-31 in double overtime at Iowa State on Friday night.

That opened the door for Alabama to move up to No. 2. “You’re excited to see things like that, of course, because at Alabama, we play for championships, that’s what we do,” defensive end Damion Square said after Alabama’s win over Georgia Southern on Saturday. (AP)

Kfi[jj_d] M[[a[dZ The last time three of the top five teams lost on the same weekend, as happened this weekend, was on Oct. 11, 2008. This weekend:

Then-No. 2 Oklahoma State lost to Iowa State, 37-31, on Friday.

Then-No. 4 Oregon lost, 38-35, at home to USC on Saturday night.

Then-No. 5 Oklahoma fell at Baylor, 45-38, on Saturday.

The only other time in the 75-year history of The Associated Press rankings that the top three teams all came from the same conference was the final regular-season poll of 1971, when Nebraska,

On “The Layover,” Bourdain tells you which bus will get you from the airport to your hotel most efficiently and where to start.

“There’s all sorts of good [expletive] you can have for breakfast!” he declares as he sets out for a starter feast at a Hawker Center.

But besides his many recommendations, Bourdain, with delicious directness, offers warnings to any traveler who wants an authentic experience: “No one in Singapore drinks Singapore Slings. It’s a disgusting drink. You don’t want it. Don’t waste your time.”

Future episodes find Bourdain visiting New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Miami, Hong Kong, London, Rome, Montreal and Amsterdam. Bourdain, staying true to the show’s no-time-towaste creed, actually performs each hit-and-run in the few hours indicated. FR A ZIER MOORE (AP)

It should be clear by now that food (and drink) is a driving force in how Anthony Bourdain greets the world. At 55, he is a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and a decades-long veteran of professional kitchens, from dishwasher to chef. In 2000, he published a best-selling tell-all memoir, “Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly,” which rocked the foodie world. Other food-centric books followed. In 2005, his rollicking culinary travelogue, “No Reservations,” premiered on Travel Channel. (AP)

A recent excursion to P.O.V., the W Hotel’s penthouse lounge and terrace, reacquainted me with the charms of hot buttered rum (and earmuffs, but only because it’s really cold up there).

Bartender Joe Ambrose’s hot apple buttered rum is to die for; it’s also $15, so I decided to experiment with making my own.

It turns out that hot buttered rum takes awhile because un8o <_edW less you want the PkXb_d drink to be greasy, you have to “fatwash” it — clarify the butter. First, melt it on the stove. I used a whole stick (because I have no sense of restraint), which serves about five people. Pour a pint of rum into a plastic, glass or stainless steel vessel, and add the hot butter and French vanilla seeds (or a little vanilla extract). Stick it all in the fridge and leave it for about 20 hours. Move the mix to the freezer for 20 minutes, remove and strain out the butter pieces.

Now you have buttered rum! But don’t just drink it straight. Take about 4 ounces of hot tea (English Breakfast or Earl Grey work well here) and add 2 ounces of the buttered rum, with sugar and nutmeg to taste.

If this sounds like too much work, though, I know a place that’ll sell you one for $15.

8WdZ Fhe\_b[ Holy Ghost! released its debut album in April, a shiny and bouncy collection of indie-electro-pop confections. But the New York duo aren’t exactly brand-new; Alex Frankel and Nick Millhiser have been making music together as

Holy Ghost! since 2007. Before that, the pair played together in the short-lived hip-hop group Automato. And before that, they played together in Miss Preston’s music class.

Holy Ghost! may be a band, but it’s also the result of a lifelong friendship between its two principal members. Frankel and Millhiser met in elementary school (Frankel was 6, and Millhiser was 7) and

A lifelong friendship gives Holy Ghost! its musical backdrop

instantly became best friends. Since then, Frankel estimates, they’ve spent “probably 80 percent of our lives in the same room.” From an early age, both were creative, which was fostered by their parents, their arts-leaning school and friends who didn’t partake in bullying.

“We grew up in this little group of kids who were always into making stuff, whether it was movies on our parents’ cameras or taking pictures or playing piano,” Frankel says. “No one was, like, ‘You [expletive], playing piano!’ It was, ‘Ooh, I really like that Tori Amos song, too!’”

The songs Frankel and Millhiser play now are far removed from Amos’ soul-baring confessionals, but their music might actually have more in common with that of the piano-playing songstress than with the electronic music acts they toured with this summer.

It’s not hard to be won over by their music, which combines a light disco touch with rock flourishes. Songs are fun and funky with choruses that make you want to sing along while dancing.

J^[ 7bbkh[ e\ É+& MehZi \eh IdemÊ G 7 British singer-songwriter Kate Bush, 53, has released only 10 studio albums in three decades, and two of them have come out in 2011: “Director’s Cut,” which features re-recorded and re-invented versions of her classic songs; and the new “50 Words for Snow,” a strangely beautiful disc of songs about winter.

You’ve put out two albums this year. Was that accidental?

It wasn’t accidental, but I’m still recovering from the shock that I managed to do it.

A song like “Misty,” about the

romance between a snowman and a flesh-and-blood person, where does that come from?

I don’t know. By that point, I had really homed in on writing about snow. It’s, like, where does anything come from? That’s the fascinating thing about creative work.

One minute it’s not there; the next minute it is.

You have Elton John on the album — that must have been a fun day in the studio.

It was a great day. I really love Elton’s work, he’s a huge hero of mine and a great inspiration when I first started writing songs. Actually being able to work with him, it was brilliant. ALLISON STEWART (T WP)

“I’d like to say that America finally has jumped off the overrated penguin bandwagon, and have turned their attention to cooler animals, like Ligers or something (word to Napoleon Dynamite).

“Let the suburbs have it. And let us redevelop that block in a way that strengthens the declining urbanism of Pennsylvania Avenue NW. ... The suburbs will think they win when they get the complex, but instead, they’ll get the negatives — a federal complex that has limited spillover benefit.

D.C. has plenty of those negatives already.”

“Now don’t take this the wrong way if you’re Jason Segel, a relative of his or his agent. Segel was perfectly fine in the sketches he was in (except the Andre the Giant clunker, but no one could have carried that outside of Andre himself).

It’s just that the best parts of the show involved Kermit, Miss Piggy and the rest of the gang. Segel is simply a complementary player.”

star of the new Muppets movie with his co-hosts was the best of this weekend’s “Saturday Night Live” show.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Consider dropping in today and seeing how others are doing with a project that you helped start. You may have valuable guidance to give.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re after something that you could not have in the past. What makes you think things are different now? What are you risking?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You may realize that your greatest fault of late is letting communication shut down â&#x20AC;&#x201D; even for a short time. Keep talking; be honest!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You may want to think twice today before jumping into a situation that you think will be a piece of cake. Nothing is that easy!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Plans you have made with a friend or family member may have to change somewhat after responsibilities at work multiply.

Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solution

Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solution

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your financial worries are not likely to be eased, but you may get a piece of good news that allows you to look further ahead.

<EKH H79A JEJ7B Make a 2-7 letter word from the letters in each row.

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19) What a neighbor is doing may be right for him or her, but that is no reason for you to think it will be right for you. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be hasty!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Overconfidence leads directly to carelessness today â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and those in charge may perceive that as incompetence.

Avoid it!

9ec_Yi

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Focus on doing things that will keep you and those around you as safe as possible â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let yourself become overly fearful or paranoid.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) That single thing that can make all the difference is not something that is within reach. You must be patient.
