DON’T DO IT

Third Time Won’t Be a Charm New York State police twice charged Zachary Boynton, 31, with driving while intoxicated for accidents that occurred just hours apart at the same McDonald’s in Oneonta. Boynton drove his car into the back of a vehicle in the drive-thru around 1 a.m. Sunday. Troopers say his blood-alcohol content was more than three times the legal limit. After being released to a sober third party, Boynton returned to the McDonald’s at around 5 a.m., where he struck the building as he drove. He was arrested again and charged with a second DWI.

Gas Leak Causes NYC Fatal Blast

In Brief

Three killed, 60 hurt when explosion levels Harlem apartments

Fifteen minutes after a nearby resident reported smelling gas, the blast occurred.

said. Con Edison said it immediately sent utility workers to check out the report, but they didn’t arrive until it was too late. The explosion shattered windows a block away, hurled debris onto elevated commuter railroad tracks close by, cast a plume of smoke over the skyline and sent people running into the streets.

“It felt like an earthquake had rattled my whole building,” said Waldemar Infante, a porter working in a basement nearby. “There were glass shards everywhere on the ground, and all the stores had their windows blown out.” Police said two women believed to be in their 40s were killed. At least three of the injured were children.

A gas leak triggered an earthshaking explosion that flattened two East Harlem apartment buildings Wednesday, killing at least three people, injuring more than 60 and leaving nine others missing. One tenant said residents had complained repeatedly in recent weeks about “unbearable” gas smells. By evening, rescue workers finally began the search for victims amid the broken bricks and mangled metal after firefighters spent most of the day dousing the flames. Trucks arrived to clear the debris where the five-story buildings stood. The fiery blast on Park Avenue at 116th Street, not far from the edge of Central Park, erupted about 9:30 a.m., around 15 minutes after a neighboring resident reported smelling gas, authorities

People run from the blast down sidewalks littered with broken glass.

Fire officials said nine people were unaccounted for but cautioned that some may not have been in the building. A tenant in one of the destroyed buildings, Ruben Borrero, said residents had complained to the landlord about smelling gas as recently as Tuesday. A few weeks ago, Borrero said, fire officials were called about the odor, which he said was so bad that a tenant broke open the door to the roof for ventilation.

Pileups on the Ohio Turnpike involving at least 50 vehicles killed two people and seriously injured a state trooper on Wednesday as a late-winter storm swept through the Midwest and the Northeast, ending a ﬂeeting spring-like thaw. Emergency workers on the busy toll road struggled to reach accidents and stuck vehicles because of snowy conditions and traffic backups. Pileups stretched across a 2-mile section in the eastbound lanes of the turnpike between Toledo and Cleveland. Another series of pileups shut down the turnpike’s westbound lanes near Sandusky. Tens of thousands of homes and businesses in northern Illinois and Indiana lost power, and a few hundred ﬂights were canceled at Chica-

Girl Who Sued Parents Goes Home Roseland, N.J. The New Jersey honor student who sued to get her parents to support her after she moved out of their home has reunited with them, and the family is now asking for privacy. Rachel Canning moved back in with her parents after speaking with her mother Tuesday, but without any promises of financial support or other consideration, lawyers for the teen and her parents said. A state judge Wednesday denied a request from Canning’s attorney asking for a court-appointed guardian for the 18-year-old to be paid for by her parents. The denied applica-

tion also requested that the courtroom be closed to hearings, the records sealed and all parties prohibited from speaking to the media. “It is critical that if Rachel does dismiss this matter that she does so of her own free will and not due to the extreme pressure of her parents and the media,” her attorney, Tanya N. Helfand, wrote in the court filing. Canning had left her parents’ house on Oct. 30, two days before she turned 18. In court filings, Canning’s parents said their daughter voluntarily left home because she didn’t want to abide by household rules. SAMANTHA HENRY (AP)

After months of railing against President Barack Obama’s health-care overhaul, the GOP scored a key victory in a congressional race that had been closely watched as a bellwether of midterm elections in November. Republican David Jolly defeated Democrat Alex Sink for Florida’s 13th District seat Tuesday night in a race that largely turned on the federal health-care law, as both sides used it to audition strategies in one of the few swing-voting districts. While Republicans held the seat for more than four decades until the death of Rep. Bill Young last year, the district’s voters favored Obama in the 2008 and 2012 elections. The community is the type that Democrats need if they hope to win seats in the House and keep control of the Senate. Analysts said the loss could bode badly for the party. “The overall picture does send a message and it says, ‘Be afraid. Be very afraid,’ ” said Jack Pitney, a former national GOP ofﬁcial. Democrats, however, downplayed the loss, saying the GOP fell short of its traditional margin in a Republican-leaning district. With almost all of the votes in, Jolly had 48.5 percent to Sink’s 46.7 percent. MICHAEL J. MISHAK AND TAMARA LUSH (AP)

U.N.: U.S. Drones Killed No Pakistani Civilians in 2013 The number of U.S. drone strikes in Pakistan plunged last year amid growing care to avoid civilian deaths, but the death toll in neighboring Afghanistan continues to rise, the United Nations’ special investigator on counterterrorism said Wednesday. Ben Emmerson says that for the first time in nine years no civilians were reported killed in 2013 in Pakistan’s Federally Administered Tribal Regions, or FATA, a semi-autonomous area along the 1,600-mile Afghanistan-Pakistan border where militant groups operate.

Obama Pledges Ukraine Support President meets with Yatsenyuk, calls for rethinking in Crimea Washington President Barack Obama expressed a glimmer of hope Wednesday that a referendum on the future of Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula can be halted, as he met with the new leader of the former Soviet republic. Sitting side by side in the Oval Ofﬁce with Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk, Obama said he hoped last-ditch diplomatic efforts might lead to a “rethinking” of Sunday’s Russian-backed referendum. If the vote does occur, Obama said, the U.S. will “completely reject” its results. And he warned that the international community would be “forced to apply a cost to Russia’s violation of international law.” “There’s another path available and we hope President Putin is willing to seize that path,” Obama said, referring to Russian President Vladimir Putin. “But if he does not, I’m very conﬁdent that

Fighting a Propaganda War

Is Moscow Gearing for War? Ukraine accused Russia on Wednesday of conducting a large military buildup near the countries’ border that raises the threat of an invasion, but Moscow denied that. Andriy Parubiy, secretary of Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, told reporters in Kiev that Russia has deployed more than 80,000 troops, up to 270 tanks and 140 combat planes close to the border, creating the “threat of a full-scale invasion from various directions.” Parubiy said Russian troops are based in the immediate vicinity of the Ukrainian border, some of them as close as a two- or three-hour drive from Kiev, the Ukrainian capital.

the international community will stand firmly behind the Ukrainian government.” Yatsenyuk, a 39-year-old proWestern official, took control in late February after Ukraine’s proRussian president fled after three months of political protests. With Ukraine now caught in a diplomatic battle between East and West, Yatsenyuk said Russia must recognize that his country can have

ties with both. “Ukraine is and will be part of the Western world,” Yatsenyuk said, speaking in ﬂuent English. As Obama and Yatsenyuk met, a U.S. Senate committee advanced a measure to impose signiﬁcant sanctions on Russia — a bid to pressure Putin to pull Russian troops out of Crimea. The measure, which now would go to the full Senate, would authorize $1 billion in loan

Image May Show Plane Debris 35,800 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

SYRIAN PRESIDENT BASHAR ASSAD visits displaced civilians

PABLO MARTINEZ MONSIVAIS (AP)

In Brief

Satellite images on a Chinese government website show suspected debris from the missing Malaysia Airlines jetliner ﬂoating off the southern tip of Vietnam, near the plane’s original flight path, China’s Xinhua News Agency reported Wednesday. The revelation could provide searchers with a focus that has eluded them since the plane disappeared with 239 people aboard early Saturday. The report includes coordinates of a location in the sea off the southern tip of Vietnam and east of Malaysia, which apparently was part of the original search area after the plane disappeared early Saturday.

The size, in square miles, of the area the search for the jet encompasses.

Two-thirds of the passengers on the flight were Chinese, and the Chinese government has put increasing pressure on Malaysian officials to solve the mystery of the plane’s disappearance. Also Wednesday, it was revealed that the last message from the cockpit of the flight was routine: “All right, good night.” Those final words were relayed Wednesday in Beijing to anguished relatives of some of the people aboard Flight MH370. The new Chinese reports of the satellite images came after several

days of sometimes confusing and conflicting statements from Malaysian officials. Earlier Wednesday, the Malaysian military officially disclosed why it was searching on both sides of the country: A review of military radar records showed what might have been the plane turning back and crossing westward into the Strait of Malacca. That would conflict with the latest images on the Chinese website. “There’s too much information and confusion right now. It is very hard for us to decide whether a given piece of information is accurate,” said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang. “We will not give it up as long as there’s still a shred of hope.” CHRIS BRUMMIT T AND EILEEN NG (AP)

Defense tries to cast doubt on expert analysis of fatal night Pretoria, South Africa

Kneeling, a South African police officer on Wednesday swung a cricket bat at a toilet door erected in the courtroom at Oscar Pistorius’ murder trial, using two key pieces of evidence to partially re-enact the night the athlete killed his girlfriend by shooting her through the same door more than a year ago. Then police Col. J.G. Vermeulen faced tough questioning from Pistorius’ defense lawyer, who alleged

that Vermeulen, a forensic expert, had made missteps in his analysis. Pistorius’ lawyers secured bail for him last year after contending that police contaminated or tampered with evidence from the scene where the double-amputee runner fatally shot 29-year-old Reeva Steenkamp on Feb. 14, 2013, and they are honing those arguments in the trial. The toilet door with four bullet holes and Pistorius’ cricket bat were on display in the courtroom Wednesday. In a partial re-enactment, Vermeulen wielded the bat in front of the door to show the position from which Pistorius may have struck the door. He said he thought Pistorius had

struck the door with the bat from a low angle, indicating he was on his stumps at the time. Defense lawyer Barry Roux insisted Pistorius was wearing his prosthetic legs.

The back-and-forth over whether Pistorius was on his prosthetic limbs is important because it could match parts of his story that he accidentally shot Steenkamp, or expose inconsistencies in it. Roux pounced when Vermeulen acknowledged that he ﬁnished his study of the door months ago, but wasn’t aware of Pistorius’ version of events until he scanned it within the last week. The police colonel said he hadn’t “bothered” to reopen his investigation. Vermeulen said he had sought to be objective, and hearing Pistorius’ version could color his view of what happened.

Mayor Gray’s Re-Election Challenges Mount Washington With less than three weeks to go until the April 1 Democratic primary, the race for D.C. mayor all but started over on Monday, when prosecutors accused incumbent Vincent Gray of helping to orchestrate an illegal “shadow campaign” that helped propel him to office four years ago. Before the revelations, Gray appeared to be on his way to threading a political needle, holding a signiﬁcant lead in recent polls among a crowded and closely divided ﬁeld. Now, the contest has turned into a referendum on whether voters believe Gray as he faces ongoing challenges. (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Lost Endorsement A respected chain of community newspapers withdrew its endorsement for Gray’s re-election Wednesday, saying new allegations leveled in federal court this week “forced us to rethink” the nod. The Current newspapers last week endorsed Gray, saying he had “done well in managing the city” and explaining that they believed that Gray was “in the dark” about an unreported campaign waged on his behalf. The Gray campaign heavily touted the endorsement, saying neighborhood papers like the Current “have their finger on the pulse of our communities.” The new editorial said there is still room to believe Gray but the next mayor “should be above reproach” and a new endorsement would come “in the near future.”

“It’s left such a bad taste in my mouth. I feel like he sold the entire city out.” — Caren Kirkland, a longtime Washingtonian who campaigned for Gray in 2010, on Thompson’s allegations

“[Gray] ain’t changing his story. I believe him.” — Geo Johnson, head of a major city employee union that has endorsed Gray for re-election, on the mayor’s ongoing denials

Another Challenger Even if Gray does manage to win the Democratic nomination, he will face another competitive race. Independent D.C. Council member David Catania on Wednesday launched a bid for mayor, ensuring the city’s most competitive general-election fight in 12 years. Catania, 46, has won five citywide races and, in a recent Washington Post poll, was statistically tied with Gray in a theoretical November matchup. Filing his papers at the city’s elections office, Catania said he had made up his mind to run last week and opened a campaign account then, necessitating his announcement by Wednesday. “This whole drama that we’ve had, this ‘Jeff Thompson-Vince Gray drama,’ the time has come for this to end,” Catania told reporters.

Md. Mall Shooter ‘Knew He Was Sick,’ Police Say

Darion Aguilar was obsessed with the Columbine massacre

The young man who killed two people at the Mall in Columbia in January was obsessed with carrying out a massacre similar to that in Columbine, authorities said in their first detailed account of the shootings. Howard County Police Chief William McMahon said Wednesday that 19-year-old Darion Marcus Aguilar had searched the Internet extensively for information on the 1999 mass shooting, and even timed his opening salvo to 11:14 a.m., the same time the killing spree at Columbine High School began. The ﬁndings dispel speculation that Aguilar — who ended the attack when he turned the gun on himself — had targeted his victims. But in putting an end to that story line, police confirmed people’s worst fears: that he intended the attack to be random, and far more deadly. McMahon released photos and video recordings of Aguilar lingering in the mall, apparently waiting for a precise time to begin his assault, and loading his gun in his bedroom. Police also said that, just

moments before he emerged from a dressing room and opened ﬁre, he took a photo of himself holding a shotgun and posted it online. “Today is the day,” Aguilar wrote in his posting on the blog site Tumblr, police said. “I woke up [and] felt no emotions no empathy no sympathy.” McMahon said Aguilar failed to surpass the carnage of Columbine for a variety of reasons. His shotgun held six rounds of buckshot, which is most lethal at close range. Also, police believe that bystanders were able to escape more quickly than Aguilar thought they could, and within seconds he ran out of people to shoot. The shootings claimed the lives of Brianna Benlolo, 21, and Tyler

Local Breaking Ground

Two Md. Teens Charged With Abusing Disabled Boy St. Mary’s County, Md. Two female teenagers in St. Mary’s County, Md., have been charged with abusing a 16-year-old boy who police said had “diminished mental capacity.” Police said the two suspects — ages 17 and 15 — assaulted the victim on multiple occasions. The 17-year-old is Lauren Bush of Mechanicsville, Md., and she is charged as an adult. The second suspect is a juvenile, therefore police did not release her name. Police say videos on the suspects’ cellphones showed them holding a knife to the victim’s throat, forcing him to perform sexual acts, kicking

him in the groin and dragging him around by his hair. At least once, the two suspects lured the victim onto a partially frozen pond, knowing that the ice was thin, police say. The boy fell through the ice several times, but the suspects refused to help him out of the frigid water. The boy was able to pull himself out of the pond, according to a spokeswoman for the St. Mary’s County Sheriff’s Ofﬁce. Police say the abuse continued from December 2013 until this past February. All three of the teens attended the same school in St. Mary’s County, but police didn’t release its name. DANA HEDGPETH (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Reality Check-In

A Glitch Mob Mentality The electronic trio pieces together its beat-driven bangers Music It took two years for The Glitch Mob to record and mix its new album, “Love Death Immortality,” and just two weeks to take it all apart. “We had to deconstruct our entire record,” says Glitch Mob member Justin Boreta. Boreta and his two bandmates isolated every bleep and bloop, bass drop and keyboard riff from the album and then mapped them onto custom “instruments” for live performances (such as Saturday’s show at the Fillmore). For instance, a touchpad screen that’s tilted toward the audience might let Ed Ma (aka edIT) tap out a distorted

guitar riff while bandmate Josh Mayer (aka Ooah) turns a knob to intensify a whirling helicopter noise. (When recording the album, Ma played an actual guitar.) “We want to perform with the energy and drama of a live band even though we have no live instruments,” Boreta says. While The Glitch Mob’s first album, 2010’s “Drink the Sea,” was meditative and introverted, “Love Death Immortality” aims to get crowds moving, Boreta says. That means lots of big bass drops, anthemic keyboard lines and danceable beats. “We focused on those tempos that can move big crowds of people, and also see how we can use those electronic dance music tempos to tell a story,” Boreta says. That story is abstract, as The Glitch Mob uses lyrics sparingly, but

the soundscape suggests a bleak yet sexy dystopia along the lines of the 1982 film “Blade Runner.” In one song, “I Need My Memory Back,” gritty vocals by Aja Volkman (of Nico Vega) further enhance the effect. “We started out singing that

DIY to the Extreme The Glitch Mob’s members record, engineer and mix their own songs; release them on their own label (Glass Air Records); and, until recently, acted as their own roadies. That’s why, member Josh Mayer says, it took two years to create the album “Love Death Immortality.” “It’s just the three of us, and we are all detail-oriented, so it takes a while,” Mayer says. S.D.

part ourselves, with a vocoder,” Mayer says, “but ended up taking it out because Aja really encapsulated the vibe of the song better than our vocoder vocals did.” Volkman couldn’t make this tour, but the band does have another ersatz band member on the road with it called “the blade.” The Glitch Mob is cagey on the details. “It’s basically a physical representation of the music,” Boreta says. “It’s a thing that lives and breathes.” Mayer clarifies: “You know ho w D e a d m au 5 h a s a c ub e and Daft Punk has a pyramid? Well, Glitch Mob has a blade.”

Olympia Dukakis is best known for her work as a member of movie ensembles — her Oscar-winning turn as the matriarch of an Italian-American family in “Moonstruck,” or her role as Clairee, one of the beauty parlor patrons in “Steel Magnolias.” Thursday at Strathmore, though, Dukakis will go it alone for a concert reading — it’s just her, her script and a barebones set — of “Rose,” the one-woman show she’s been performing off and on for nearly 15 years. You opened this show on Broadway in 2000. Why keep coming back to it for so long?

Well, first, when I started, I had never done a one-woman show before. I liked working with other actors. But then [“Rose”] was offered to me, and I did it, and it really changed me, to be honest.

THE ONE WOMAN IN ONE-WOMAN SHOW ‘ROSE’

CHRISTIAN OTH

Olympia Dukakis

Changed you how?

First of all, just the memorizing — I thought, “I don’t even know if I can do this.” Then I had to sit the whole time. I wasn’t able to move, I couldn’t even get up, and I had to talk to the audience directly. Literally all my concerns as an actor, they all had to be confronted, they all had to be gotten through. Has how you approach the

people come to it and want to have dialogue about it afterwards. But have those external factors affected your performance?

Oh, no. No. The audience, they have a right to act any way they want, but that doesn’t mean I have to accommodate them. And that’s one of the things I’ve learned, that the audience can have whatever experience it wants. Laugh when it wants, leave when it wants, grow when it wants — but that means I can then take over the play and move through it in a way that makes sense to me and feels important to me.

character changed?

First, the play is quite a political play; it’s about an American Jewish woman sitting shiva for a Palestinian girl that her Israeli grandson shot. One of the things that’s happened is the dialogue around what is happening between the Palestinians and the Israelis and the Israelis and the Arab nations has changed. At first I would have American Jewish audiences yelling at me that the play was anti-Semitic. Since the climate has changed,

That must be very freeing.

It is! And that was something I didn’t necessarily understand and know fully before I did this play. Maybe I shouldn’t admit that. It would have been nicer if I came to it when I was in my 30s, in my 40s. I was in my 50s when I came to it. I guess I should be glad I learned it at all. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (E XPRESS)

‘A Garden of Marvels’ writer Ruth Kassinger digs into plant history Books About 15 years ago, writer and Chevy Chase, Md., resident Ruth Kassinger was helping her kids with their science fair projects. As she wrestled with those infernal trifold foamcore banes of existence, she thought, “You know, this is fun, but is there any science being taught here?” That set her on the path of writing eight books for young adults on science. All of them concentrate not only on what makes things tick, but also on the people who figured out

what that ticking was. “My whole idea is to slip in the science in an integral way to what are basically human stories,” says Kassinger, who’ll discuss her latest book, “A Garden of Marvels: How We Discovered T hat Flowers Have Sex, Leaves E a t A i r, a nd Other Secrets of Plants,” on Saturday at Politics and Prose. “A Garden of Marvels,” which is aimed at adults, is about botanists who, early on, did a lot with very little. In the 1670s, for example, English plant scientist Nehemiah Grew produced incredibly

detailed drawings of plants without the aid of a microscope. “People cut open animals all the time and, even if you didn’t know how things worked, you could see the organs,” Kassinger says. “Take a plant and cut it open and you learn almost nothing.” Botany really started to flower with the emergence of a new attitude toward learning as a whole and science in particular. Beginning in the mid-17th century, people began to move from “just assuming that everything had been created by God for a purpose and there was really no point in investigating further, to wanting to know how things work,” Kassinger says. The 1660 founding of the Royal Society of London for Improving

STONE PHOTOGRAPHY INC.

The Seeds of Botany

Chevy Chase-based author Ruth Kassinger tends to her “Garden of Marvels.”

Natural Knowledge by Experiment was evidence of that shift. In addition to holding weekly meetings that fostered the sharing of research, the Royal Society began publishing scientific papers. “All of a sudden, the information was there to be read across Europe,” she says. The Royal Society was like an Enlightenment-era Internet. Today’s botanists have the real Internet and lots of neato plantrelated tech. And the spirit of collaboration is still strong. “To think about a plant as an integrated system, it takes people looking at all aspects of it to put it together,” Kassinger says. In t he jour ney of bota ny, it seems no one travels alone. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (E XPRESS)

From black box to Broadway, there’s no shortage of high-caliber theater in America — but language barriers keep some of the world’s best shows out of our reach. “Generally, in America, we expect everything to be in English, and everything is not,” says Alicia Adams, the Kennedy Center’s head of international programming. “We’re missing a lot. I’m always trying to give audiences … opportunities to experience other parts of the world and listen to works in other languages.” Adams travels the world in search of quality productions for an annual festival of theater from outside U.S. borders. This year, instead of zeroing in on one country or region as she’s done in the past, Adams put together a sampling of performances, staged readings and installations from across the globe. The resulting program, the World Stages international theater festival, opened Monday. Nine of the 13 full-scale productions in the festival have never been staged in America before, an impressive tally of premieres for the Kennedy Center. “I was trying to include important theater from every continent, and we managed to do that,” she says. “Except for Antarctica. Maybe next time.” Here’s a rundown of the nine shows you can see in D.C. before they open anywhere else in the country. And if you do see one of the five that are in a language other than English, don’t worry — projected surtitles will translate. CHRISTINA CAUTERUCCI (FOR E XPRESS)

“Rupert,” written by Australia’s most famous playwright, David Williamson, brings the Melbourne Theatre Company to America. The life of the show’s eponymous right-wing media mogul (Murdoch, that is) is examined in a vaudevillian comedy, which includes bits about the cutthroat business practices and phone-hacking scandal that made him a household name.

3. ‘La Muerte y La Doncella (Death and the Maiden)’ Family Theater, Fri. & Sat., 7:30 p.m.; Sun., 1:30 p.m.,$29

Years after a woman was brutally abused as a political prisoner, she chances upon the man who raped her — and holds him hostage — in a story inspired by Chile’s arduous road to democracy.

6 6. ‘Green Snake’ Eisenhower Theater, March 27-29, 7:30 p.m.; March 30, 1:30 p.m. $29-$69

“Green Snake” is a bold, modern take on an ancient Chinese legend about two snake spirits who transform into human women capable of intense love and lust. Director and playwright Tian Qinxin is a rising star in China, where woman directors are still somewhat rare. Adams says Qinxin’s talent and “Green Snake’s” high production values make this a can’t-miss show.

4. ‘Harmsaga’

7. ‘Les Souffleurs commandos poetiques’

Terrace Theater, Sat., 7:30 p.m.; Sun., 2 p.m., $29

Throughout the Kennedy Center, March 28-30

A couple with two young children see their marriage wither as the jealous husband spies on his lonely wife’s Internet habits. A suspenseful romanceturned-tragedy, “Harmsaga” is the National Theatre of Iceland’s first U.S. performance.

Black-clad artists will take over the entire Kennedy Center, whispering poems through 6-foot tubes (called rossignols) directly into spectators’ ears, during this free-to-the-public collaboration between Tokyo Theatre Company KAZE and French performance group Les Souffleurs commandos poetiques. The troupe calls its art a “tentative de ralentissement du monde” — an attempt to slow down the world.

5. ‘Savannah Bay’ Family Theater, March 19-22, 7:30 p.m., $49

Festival curator Alicia Adams calls the late Marguerite Duras’ two-character French drama a “seminal work.” In the 1982 play, a young woman visits

8. ‘Solomon and Marion’ Terrace Theater, March 28 & 29, 7:30 p.m., March 30, 2 p.m., $49

Set in post-apartheid South Africa, “Solomon and Marion” features Academy Award nominee Janet Suzman as an embittered and lonely divorced woman mourning the death of her son. When a young black man moves in with her, the two forge an unlikely friendship. “The chemistry between [the two actors] just sparks,” Adams says.

9. ‘The Adventures of Robin Hood’ Family Theater, March 28, 7 p.m.; March 29 & 30, 1:30 & 4 p.m.; April 4, 7 p.m.; April 5 & 6, 1:30 & 4 p.m., $20

2. ‘Incendios’

Not all of the characters at World Stages are played by people. Two of the shows are at least partially populated by puppets: “Penny Plain” (March 20-22), a Canadian play performed by one man operating 10 marionettes, and “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” (March 20-23), a surreal interpretation of the Bard’s comedy with a roster of both human actors and wooden puppets carved by the Handspring Puppet Company. Handspring, the South African puppet design team behind the magnificent creature at the center of “War Horse,” has put some of its most impressive creations on display for “Raw to Real: Carving Theater” in the Kennedy Center’s Hall of Nations. A puppet made to play Joey, the equine star of “War Horse,” is on exhibit — and it’s a stunning example of how artful handiwork can bring man-made materials to life. C.C.

The puppet is operated by three performers in roles named for their position in the animal: head, hind and heart. Dressed in period costumes, the puppeteers not only articulate Joey’s movements through an elaborate system of levers, joints and tendons, but speak his lines (whimpers and whinnies), too.

A 120-pound machine, Joey is strong enough to hold the weight of the adult men who ride him onstage. The puppet’s frame is made from cane, chosen for its strength and shape retention, and its skin is a translucent mesh that reflects the mood of the stage lighting.

Joey’s ears rotate in their sockets when a puppeteer squeezes a set of handles. An elastic band wrapped around each ear’s base provides enough tension to simulate the twitching of a real-life horse. “The way [the horse was] structured anatomically so it can move in the most naturalistic ways is just stunning,” says festival curator Alicia Adams. “I’m mesmerized by it.”

Bach’s enduringly popular Brandenburg Concertos demand serious endurance

NOT AT SXSW PARTY

Music

AND I AM NOT LYING

Baltimore Symphony Orchestra concertmaster Jonathan Carney knows he’s going to look a little silly wielding a child-sized violin in the BSO’s performance of Bach’s Brandenburg Concertos. “Playing a small instrument when you’re a big person is a physical challenge,” says the 6-foot 2-inch Carney, who as concertmaster is the BSO’s lead violinist and occasional conductor. “But it’s a challenge I feel was worth taking because the sound of the instrument is so unique.” Carney will be playing a piccolo violin for the first of the six concertos at the behest of none other than Johann Sebastian Bach. In the 1700s, regular violins had limited ranges, so the composer called for a small violin to handle the concerto’s high-flying solo. For similar reasons, Bach wrote a solo for piccolo trumpet in the second concerto. So stifle your giggles when you see the BSO’s 6-foot principal trumpet player, Andrew Balio, dwarf the diminutive horn. “Bach was a virtuoso on so many instruments, and he made everyone live up to that standard,” Carney says. “He pushed the instruments right to the edge of their technical capacities.” Baroque orchestras couldn’t always meet Bach’s demands, which is probably part of the reason the concertos were ignored for more than a century after Bach presented them to the Margrave of Brandenburg in 1721. (A margrave was a nobleman, sort of like a count.) The music was beyond the capacities of the Margrave’s court orchestra, so he filed it away and didn’t even send Bach a thank-you note.

Jonathan Carney, the BSO’s concertmaster, will direct the orchestra’s performance of all six Brandenburg Concertos.

Paging ‘Antiques Roadshow’ BSO concertmaster Jonathan Carney will be playing a piccolo violin (about three inches shorter than a full-sized violin) that his father bought at an auction in the 1950s. It was made in 1757 by noted Italian luthier Nicolo Gagliano. Carney and his three siblings, who all went to the Juilliard School, played it as kids.

Little Big Horn BSO principal trumpet player Andrew Balio will use a foot-long, gold-plated piccolo trumpet made by Schilke Music Products. Trumpet virtuoso Gerard Schwarz played this very instrument on his classic recordings of Baroque masterpieces in the 1970s and ’80s. S.D.

JAMES BARTOLOMEO

the greatest instrumental music ever written, Carney says. “The Brandenburg Concertos were ahead of their time,” he says. “They are incredibly sophisticated, technically and harmonically.” The concertos were f inally published in 1850, but they didn’t become well known until the 1950s, when recordings of the lively pieces became runaway hits. Today, they are among the best known and most frequently played baroque compositions — though not usually all together at the same concert.

“You get to hear the entire project as Bach envisioned it played in front of you, and it’s a rare occurrence,” Carney says. “It’s just not done very often.” That’s because, in addition to their technical challenges, the concertos also present logistical ones. Each calls for a different set of instruments — the first, for

instance, features two horns that aren’t used again, while the sixth requires the entire violin section to sit tight. Plus, they clock in at two hours and 20 minutes. “Playing them is kind of like running a marathon,” Carney says. “Hearing all six of them feels really complete. It’s a very cathartic experience.” SADIE DINGFELDER (E XPRESS)

CURBSIDE ENTHUSIASM Sample global street foods at local restaurants — no passport required

AMANDA ERICKSON (FOR E XPRESS)

GERMANY: LAUGENBREZEL

TRAVIS VAUGHN

$6 for 3; $10 for 6 Biergarten Haus, 1355 H St. NE; 202-388-4085, biergartenhaus.com. Bavarian cuisine began as the food of the rural, royal courts. Today, it’s most likely to be found at German street fairs serving as cushion for the pints (and pints) of beer consumed. The menu at Biergarten Haus features stick-toyour-bones fare like brat platters (served with sauerkraut and potato pancake) and laugenbrezel, a cloudlike pretzel roll served with a slice of salty white cheese and mustard dipping sauce. The challenge, says Jessie Caola, director of marketing at Biergarten Haus, is adapting recipes designed to be cooked quickly, in a single serving, for larger crowds.

JASON HORNICK (FOR EXPRESS)

Here’s the kind of problem Rose Previte faces these days — she can’t seem to track down sulguni, a mozzarellalike cheese she needs to make khajapuri, a traditional Georgian snack. Previte, 34, is the owner of Compass Rose, the restaurant off 14th Street she’s aiming to open in late March. Unlike menus at other ethnic restaurants that focus on one particular country, Previte’s will instead include dishes inspired by street foods found around the world. And that presents some challenges. Take, for example, the sulguni cheese. Previte visited farms up and down the East Coast but couldn’t quite match the sour-meetssalty taste of the cheese so prevalent in the Samegrelo region of Georgia. “It’s the cows,” she says. “We don’t have the right cows here.” Undeterred, she and Previte her chef — John Paul Damato, formerly of Restaurant Nora and Jaleo — are experimenting with combinations of feta, mozzarella and farmer’s cheese to make their own blend. Previte fell in love with the idea of street food while eating scallion pancakes in Shanghai, porchetta sandwiches in Tuscany and spinach pies in Beirut. No, Previte is not a hungry version of Carmen Sandiego. She lived in Moscow from October 2009 through January 2012 with her husband, NPR reporter David Greene, while he was on assignment. “He would go to scary war zones, and I would go traveling with my friends,” Previte says. It was during those travels that Previte realized the significance of a country’s street food. “It’s a window into the culture and something that equalizes people,” she says. “You see rich people and poor people eating the same thing.” Compass Rose will feature a rotating array of food you’d find being served on the sidewalks of Turkey, Lebanon, Italy and Latin America. The restaurant, built on the first floor of the row house in which Previte and Greene live, is even decorated to look like a night bazaar. Part of the reason for street food’s popularity, Previte says, is it’s usually the most affordable option in a city, and often the most genuine. Which are precisely the reasons she thinks her concept will work well in the District. “What I’ve found in D.C. is that big-name chefs are swooping in to open places,” Previte says. “It’s great, but it makes us miss the holes-in-the-wall.” Compass Rose is the only restaurant in D.C. dedicated entirely to street food, but it’s not the only place to find the dishes that are served along sidewalks around the world.

RUSSIA: PIROZHKI JAPAN: RICE BALLS

$3.50 each Izakaya Seki, 1117 V St. NW; 202-588-5841, sekidc.com. (U Street)

The Japanese rice ball is simple — take some sticky rice, put salmon or pickled shrimp in the middle, then roll it up. Fold it into a piece of dried seaweed and you’ve got lunch. But at Izakaya Seki, the rice balls come with a twist — an extra wrapping of soy paper and toasted sesame seeds. “In Japan, if you go to a convenience store, the rice balls are everywhere,” says executive chef Hiroshi Seki, who co-owns the restaurant with his son Cizuka. “It’s like a sandwich over there.”

$9 for three Mari Vanna, 1141 Connecticut Ave. NW; 202-783-7777, marivanna.ru/washington. (Dupont Circle)

Russians sometimes liken these plush bites to the American hamburger, but in practice they’re more like a cross between a samosa and a bready dumpling. Delicious and doughy, these cabbage- or meat-stuffed bread pockets come three to a plate at Mari Vanna. The filling (either a mixture of ground beef, rice and cheese or cabbage and onions) is blanketed in a pastry and fried. They’re just the right size to stick in your pocket as you dart around on a chilly Moscow day.

MEXICO: ELOTE CALLEJERO

JASON HORNICK (FOR EXPRESS)

$4 El Chucho, 3313 11th St. NW; 202-290-3313. (Columbia Heights) Between the tacos and the tortas (a Latin American grilled cheese), Mexico City is a street food paradise. Owner Jackie Greenbaum does the cuisine justice at El Chucho, her restaurant, which she describes as a “love letter to Mexican street food.” Greenbaum and El Chucho’s original chef, Diana DavilaBoldin (who has since been replaced by Matt Russell), added their own twists to popular dishes like the elote callejero, grilled corn on the cob covered in cheese. To spice it up, Davila-Boldin incorporated a brown butter aioli and chili lime spice. No wonder it’s the restaurant’s most popular dish, according to Greenbaum.

ETHIOPIA: KITFO DULET Right around dusk in Addis Ababa, the capital city of Ethiopia, mobile kitchens start to appear outside of bars and restaurants. Vendors fry up samosas and chunks of meat for workers on their way home (or partiers on their way out). Yetenbi’s version of the kebab is the kitfo dulet, a plate of beef served up with diced onions and jalapenos. Enjoy it with other sidewalk specialties — spicy tea and a side of spongy bread.

It sounds different than Ripple.

It is. It’s taking the ideals that I’ve brought with me along the way — working with local people, knowing where your meat’s coming from, where your produce is coming from — and doing it in a completely different style.

Pleading Guilty I’ve never read anything written by Hemingway. Or Faulkner. Or Austen. Which wouldn’t be such a big deal if it weren’t for the fact that I majored in English. (I’m working on it! I blame “Beowulf” for taking up so much of my college curriculum.) In the same vein, there are certain restaurants I’m ashamed to admit that I — a food writer — have never eaten at. Rasika is one of them. Ray’s the Steaks and Minibar are also on the list. Until Monday night, Estadio was another. (Its refreshing gin and tonic is pictured above). The omissions are nothing personal. Rather, the oversights (overtastes?) are due in part to the fact that I can’t afford to eat at every one of these institutions, or I simply haven’t had the chance to yet. For every restaurant I cross off my “To Try” list, it seems I have two to add. To put it in more digestible terms, if D.C.’s dining scene were a creme brulee, I’ve only just shattered the crispy caramelized top. There’s still so much more for me to discover, and I’m hungry to dig in! I’m curious to hear other diners’ laments of places they’re embarrassed to admit they haven’t tried. And in the meantime, I’m going to keep jotting down your recommendations. HOLLEY SIMMONS (EXPRESS)

FRIDAY

Marjorie Meek-Bradley EXECUTIVE CHEF, RIPPLE AND ROOFERS UNION

Marjorie Meek-Bradley had a pretty good February. At the beginning of the month, the culinarian, who made her name at Ripple in Cleveland Park, became executive chef at the new Roofers Union in Adams Morgan. By the end of the month, Meek-Bradley had been named a semifinalist for the James Beard Awards’ rising star chef of the year. We can’t wait to see what the rest of the year brings. How does it feel to be a James Beard rising star semiﬁnalist?

There aren’t even words to describe it. I feel very, very lucky. What did you think of the rest of the nominations?

It’s really cool to see how many D.C. restaurants and chefs — in

more than just one or two categories — are included. It shows the growth the city is going through in this industry. Roofers Union serves house-made sausages. How did you get into making those?

At Ripple, I was getting a lot of

[One section of the menu is] snacks, ranging from chicken wings or onion rings to things like crispy pig ear salad or a veal sweetbreads po’ boy. So we have normal things, familiar things and then more fun things people can experiment with. You’ve worked for amazing chefs — Thomas Keller, Mike Isabella and Jose Andres, to name a few.

When I started cooking I basically moved to a new city every year to work for the best people I could. I met Mike Isabella when I was 19 and had just graduated culinary school. Mike taught me you should always work at the best places you can under the best chefs you can. Are kitchens male-dominated?

I’d say in probably 90 percent of the kitchens I worked in, I was the only girl. How did you deal with that?

I guess I adapted. I realized if I treated everyone like a sibling, in a way, it wasn’t as threatening. You don’t want to be seen as the only girl. You just want to be seen as another cook.

Cover Story

A Lingering Habit?

How Do They Work? E-cigarettes are battery-powered devices that come in a variety of shapes and sizes. The main component is a refillable or replaceable cartridge of

FRANK FRANKLIN II (AP)

E-cigarettes are gaining fans, but their future may be up in the air

liquid “juice,” above, that contains solvents, flavors (think pina colada, vanilla, bubblegum) and, in some cases, nicotine (up to 24 milligrams or more). When users draw on the device, it causes the battery to heat the liquid, creating vapor that dissipates when exhaled. Cartridges typically contain enough for 250 or more “puffs.”

New York

FRANK FRANKLIN II (AP)

Are They Regulated?

A patron exhales vapor from an e-cigarette last month at The Henley Vaporium in New York. “Vaping” is a growing movement.

“At the end of the day, the best part about smoking is the smoke part.”

$1.5B Are They Safe?

— Xavier Armand, 25, who has been vaping for about three years

to nicotine addiction isn’t known. Vaping may be safer — there are differing opinions — but it isn’t necessarily cheap. Will Hopkins, 21, visits The Henley four or ﬁve times a week. He smoked a pack of Marlboros a day for eight years until he took up vaping. The same goes for his buddy, Will Gallagher, 20, who has been vaping for two years and is fond of his brass mod, a device that’s larger than a cigarette and decorated with a tiger and Chinese lettering. “I think both of us have poured in probably a little over a thousand” dollars, Gallagher said of their equipment. “I like the exclusivity of vaping. I like to keep changing up my stuff.” LEANNE ITALIE (AP)

The Food and Drug Administration plans to regulate e-cigarettes but has not yet issued proposed rules. Some cities and states have already moved to ban public use the way they do tobacco, and at least 27 states have banned the sale of it to children.

The amount of e-cig sales in 2013, up from about $500 million in 2012, according to Consumers Union.

JEFFREY MACMILLAN

On the edge of the SoHo neighborhood downtown, The Henley Vaporium is an intimate hipster hangout with overstuffed chairs, exposed brick, friendly help — but no booze. Instead, the proprietors are peddling e-cigarettes along with bottles of liquid nicotine ready to be plucked from behind a bar and turned into a ﬂavorful vapor that provides a lung hit with a kick intended to simulate traditional smoking. A hint of banana nut bread e-juice lingered in the air one recent afternoon as patrons gathered around a table to chat and vape or sidled up to the bar for help from a knowledgeable “vapologist.” Places like The Henley are a rarity, even in New York. But “vaping,” itself, has had astonishing growth — in just eight years or so, the number of enthusiasts around the world has grown from a few thousand to millions. Vaping now has its own YouTube gurus, trade associations, lobbyists, online forums and vapefests for meetups centered on what enthusiasts consider a safer alternative to the “analog” — their name for tobacco cigarettes. The Food and Drug Administration plans to regulate e-cigarettes but has not yet issued proposed rules. The agency simply states on its website that “e-cigarettes have not been fully studied so consumers currently don’t know the potential risks.” In the meantime, some cities and states have moved to ban public use the way they do tobacco, and many other jurisdictions are considering regulations. Whether vaping helps regular smokers quit or leads nonsmokers

Jonathan Elias, owner of My Vapez, has two locations and will soon open a third.

Locally, Business Is Growing My Vapez, a basement store that sells e-cigarettes in Arlington, opened five months ago and is poised to bring in more than $1 million in sales this year. It is the company’s second store — the first opened in Herndon, Va., in August — and business has been so strong, owner Jonathan Elias said, that he plans to open a location in Rockville next month before expanding to Capitol Hill. “Our numbers just keep growing and growing,” Elias said. But it is also a tenuous business model complicated by looming regulations and legal uncertainties. “There’s no telling if we will still be in business by the end of 2014,” said Christopher Bienlein, who handles online sales. “It all depends on local regulations.” ABHA BHAT TAR AI (CAPITAL BUSINESS)

We don’t know yet. Because they’re unregulated, Consumers Union reports, we don’t know what’s in them. In 2009, the FDA detected diethylene glycol, a toxic chemical used in antifreeze, in some and carcinogens called nitrosamines in others.

Cheaper Than Smokes? Whether vaping is cheaper than a cigarette habit is up to how much is spent on equipment and how often one vapes. A bottle of liquid can go for about $12 and may be roughly the equivalent of four packs of cigarettes (which run $5 to $15 each). A starter kit that comes with a device can run around $66. Fancier e-cigs can run hundreds or thousands of dollars.

Ervin Santana was 9-10 with a 3.24 ERA in 32 starts for the Royals last season.

Braves Sign Santana to 1-Year Deal Baseball The Atlanta Braves agreed Wednesday on a $14.1 million, one-year contract with Ervin Santana, bolstering their injury plagued starting rotation. The 31-year-old right-hander went 9-10 with a 3.24 ERA in 32 starts for the Kansas City Royals last season and should make a huge impact with the battered Braves, who are facing the prospect of losing Kris Medlen for the season and opening with Brandon Beachy and Mike Minor on the disabled list. Med len, who had been announced as Atlanta’s openingday starter, left a spring training outing Sunday after grabbing his right elbow. Initial tests showed ligament damage, and he will undergo further examination to determine if he needs surgery for the second time in less than four years. Beachy left a start Monday because of continuing problems with his right elbow, and Minor has yet to pitch this spring because of a sore shoulder. “In light of what has happened over the past few days with our pitching staff, we felt it was incumbent on us to do everything we could to strengthen our starting pitching,” Braves general manager Frank Wren told reporters before a game against Washington. (AP)

Who Should Start On Opening Day? The safe assumption is that Stephen Strasburg, for the third consecutive year, will be handed the ball on opening day. But manager Matt Williams insists no final decision has been made. He said Jordan Zimmermann will receive consideration for the honor, and he said it as though he found it obvious. “Of course he will,” Williams said this week. “He won a whole bunch of games last year. He’s been really good.” Williams will wait another week to make his official announcement. So should Strasburg or Zimmermann start opening day for the Nationals? ADAM KILGORE (THE WASHINGTON POST )

The case for Zimmermann

The case for Strasburg

The opening day start is not just reserved for a team’s best pitcher. It is an honor bestowed, a nod to the starter who had the team’s best season the year before. For the Nationals, that was Zimmermann. He made the All-Star team, won 19 games and pitched 213 innings. Strasburg may be brilliant, but Zimmermann has been sturdy, reliable and frequently dominant. Strasburg likely won’t be missing out on any starts if he takes the ball second, anyway. Zimmermann deserves his first chance at an opening day starter.

He’s the Nationals’ best pitcher, period, and starting him opening day will allow the Nationals to maximize the number of starts he makes. Even if last season he experienced a preponderance of hiccups, both self-made and hard-luck, no one on the staff can match his stuff. That’s especially true now that he has full extension of his elbow following offseason surgery to remove bone chips. Heck, despite some rough patches, Strasburg’s 3.00 ERA led the Nationals’ rotation. Strasburg has also shown he can handle whatever extra responsibility comes with an opening day start. The past two years, he has yielded one run in 14 innings on opening day.

Harper Reveals Walk-Up Songs Around a year ago, Bryce Harper announced his 2013 walkup songs: “Flower” by Moby, “Radioactive” by Imagine Dragons and “It’s Tricky” by RunD.M.C. The Washington Post’s Whitney Leaming was in Viera, Fla., during spring training, and asked several players, including Harper, above, for their 2014 music. “I’ve got three: [‘Flower’] by Moby, and then ‘Dark Horse,’ by Katy Perry, and ‘To Kill Ya,’ ” he responded. “If the fans sing it, that’ll be cool. So I’m excited.” As for Adam LaRoche, “Oh, I have no idea,” he said. “I’ve got a couple buddies, Jason Aldean and Luke Bryan, who I do a lot of hunting with, so I assume a combination of some of their music.” (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Sports Washington’s outside the playoff picture with 15 games left Capitals WORLD CUP

Tickets Going Fast More than two-thirds of the World Cup matches sold out less than three hours after FIFA opened new ticket sales on Wednesday. Tickets for all Brazil matches were gone in about an hour, as were the ones for all the quarterfinals and nearly all second-round matchups in the June 12-July 13 tournament. (AP)

Tuesday night, after the Capitals’ fifth loss in the past six games, players shuff led about the visitors’ dressing room at Consol Energy Center in silence. The somber quiet was that of a team that could see its opportunity to reach the postseason slipping away but has done little to reverse its course in the last 10 days. The Capitals have one win in the last six games, have lost three

straight on the road and have been shutout in consecutive road games for the ﬁrst time since November 2010. With 15 games left in the regular season, Washington sits three points out of a playoff spot but has played more games than all of the teams they’re contending with and don’t own any tiebreakers. “We know the situation: We know we can’t lose a game; we can’t give up the points,” Alex Ovechkin said, adding that the Capitals are feeling the weight of trying to make the playoffs for a seventh consecutive season. For some time now, the Capitals haven’t played their ideal game: establish a strong forecheck, move

the puck cleanly up the ice and try to dominate territory. In their past six contests, during which they are 1-4-1, the Capitals got off to slug-

gish starts, got pinned in their own zone and heavily outshot for significant portions of the game and can’t find their offense until trying to mount a late-game comeback. Washington hasn’t scored first since March 2 against the Flyers, a game it lost 5-4 in overtime after squandering a two-goal lead in the third period. “There’s definitely a higher sense of urgency in the room,” rook ie Connor Carrick said. “Guys are saying it: We need to be more desperate, we need to play harder, earn that bounce. That’s the message in the room, but we’ve got to make it happen.” K ATIE CARRER A (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Ware Headed to Denver

Broncos’ defense gets boost by bringing in Cowboys sack leader

Redskins Add Tackle

Well, that didn’t take long. DeMarcus Ware reached agreement on a three-year contract with the Denver Broncos, a person with knowledge of the situation said Wednesday, less than 24 hours after the pass rusher was released by the Dallas Cowboys in a move to clear salary cap space. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the deal was pending a physical and hadn’t been announced. Ware left his first team visit of free agency with a deal worth $30 million, including $20 million guaranteed. He’ll pair with linebacker Von

Former Maryland Terrapin tackle Bruce Campbell signed a one-year deal worth $710,000 with the Redksins. A former fourth-round pick, the 6-foot-6, 320-pound Campbell spent the first two seasons of his career with the Raiders, and then the last season with Carolina. The Panthers waived Campbell with an injury last August. Campbell has appeared in 19 games, starting none of them. (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Highs and Lohans Lindsay Lohan, above, who vows to be “honest” in “docu-series” “Lindsay” (10 p.m., Sundays on OWN), proclaims: “There’s no party that I haven’t gone to.” “There’s no person that I haven’t hung out with.” “There’s no situation that I haven’t … been exposed to.” Lindsay Lohan, you lie!

People I’m reasonably certain you’ve never hung out with: Dolly Parton, the Dalai Lama, Lorenzo Lamas, Dr. Laura, Dr. Seuss. You were not exposed to the situation when I was HAVING A SITUATION and I really needed someone to be exposed to that situation but you NEVER SHOWED UP so I think that’s a situation you’ve never been exposed to. You are also wrong when you say: “I know this is my last shot at doing what I love to do.” The endless fascination that Hollywood (and OWN impresario Oprah Winfrey) has with fallen celebrities will enable you to continue doing what you love to do until the next fallen celebrity bumps you out of the fallen celebrity spotlight.

As he moves studios, Jerry Bruckheimer reflects on his lengthy career in a new book Film & Books One of the most powerful men in Hollywood is starting a new chapter. After more than two decades with Disney, where he produced the juggernaut “Pirates of the Caribbean” and “National Treasure” film franchises among many boxoffice hits, Bruckheimer begins a new partnership with Paramount this month. At Disney’s behest, he closes the previous chapter with a photo book as outsized as some of his productions: “Jerry Bruckheimer: When Lightning Strikes — Four Decades of Filmmaking” ($60, Disney Editions) is a 10-pound, 300-page chronicle of his career in pictures. Johnny Depp wrote the foreword. “(It’s) a coffee-table book to celebrate the movies that I’ve made, my time at Disney and my time in the business,” Bruckheimer says. Bruckheimer, 70, insists things won’t change much as he begins his three-year stint with Paramount. He anticipates digging into edgier fare that wouldn’t have fit into Disney’s family-oriented slate. He plans to produce sequels to his original Paramount hits “Beverly Hills Cop” and “Top Gun,” and says he hopes Eddie Murphy and Tom Cruise will reprise their starring roles. Another story on his mind:

JORDAN STRAUSS (AP)

OPRAH WINFREY NETWORK

Broadcast Muse

Producer Jerry Bruckheimer hopes to explore edgier material when he makes the move from Disney to Paramount.

“I don’t think anybody knows what an audience will connect with. If they tell you they do, they’re lying.” That of the U.S. Special Forces team that landed in Afghanistan after 9/11. He already holds the rights to a book on the period. “Hopefully with the success of (the Mark Wahlberg ﬁlm) ‘Lone Survivor,’ we can get that jump-

started,” Bruckheimer says. He continues his work in television, too, where he’s found groundbreaking success with several “CSI” series and “The Amazing Race,” which has won 14 Emmy Awards. He has two new shows in the works: “Home,” a family drama for Fox, and another CSI spinoff for CBS, this one centered on a cyberpsychologist and high-tech crime. Despite decades of success in entertainment, Bruckheimer says he’s no closer to predicting audience taste than he was at the outset of his career.

“I don’t know what the audience will connect with … I just know what I like,” he says. “I don’t think anybody knows what an audience will connect with. If they tell you they do, they’re lying.” He makes movies he wants to see. And he still believes in his last ﬁlm for Disney, the mega-milliondollar ﬂop, “The Lone Ranger.” “I’m not the kind of person who looks back,” Bruckheimer says. “I only look back for the mistakes I’ve made to correct them. I always try to look forward.” SANDY COHEN (AP)

Hypothesis: It’s About the Money: CBS says it’s renewing its hit comedy “The Big Bang Theory” for three more years. The extraordinary deal would carry the sitcom through the 2016-2017 season, the series’ 10th on the air. “The Big Bang Theory” premiered in September 2007 and averaged nearly 20 million viewers each week this season. The comedy stars three-time Emmy-winner Jim Parsons, left, with Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting. (AP)

Sara Evans Takes It ‘Slow’ The country singer had time to grow up on her latest album The cover of Sara Evans’ new album depicts her in front of a giant clock above the title “Slow Me Down” — an ironic statement for a country star releasing only her third album in nine years. But taking her time beneﬁts Evans in one way: “Slow Me Down” ranks with such past gems as 2005’s “Real Fine Place” and 2000’s “Born To Fly,” two of Evans’ best, and most success-

ful, albums. She also proﬁts from working with one producer, Mark Bright, who also co-produced “Real Fine Place” with Evans, a move

away from the multiple producers found on Evans’ disappointing 2011 release, “Stronger.” Bright adds particularly inventive and engaging arrangements to such standout cuts as “Sweet Spot” and especially “You Never Know,” with its clever use of strings as a rhythmic element set against drums and guitars. Evans’ maturity also informs her new songs, especially the title cut, the equally compelling “Better Off” (a duet with Vince Gill) and “Revival.” Judging from the strength of her new work, Evans should ignore her own advice and speed up recording efforts on the next round.

“If a customer was particularly bad we exercised one of the only powers we possessed and ‘decafed’ them.”

— NICK GREENE AT MENTALFLOSS .COM recalls the Bullenbeisser,

— MOLLY OSBERG AT THEAWL.COM

recounts her time as a barista at Starbucks, where she says she retaliated against rude customers by substituting regular coffee with decaffeinated. “To covertly rob a caffeine-addicted a--hole of their morning jolt was truly one of the sweetest pleasures of baristahood,” Osberg writes.

You may not be eligible if you: • Are pregnant or nursing • Have heart or liver disease, peptic ulcer, or seizures • Have depression, anorexia, bulimia or anxiety

“Georgetown is a historic district, not a museum dedicated to colonial architecture.” — COMMENTER ALEX AT DC.URBANTURF .COM stands up for the Exxon condo

project’s modern design, above, this week after the Old Georgetown Board and the Advisory Neighborhood Commission rejected it last week. Among the criticism from the board and ANC was that the plan did not include enough brick. “It’s back to the drawing board,” ANC 2E Commissioner Tom Birch tells UrbanTurf.

“Do you like Wikipedia? Are you a fan of obscenely wealthy educational institutions with unspeakable power? Then you’ll love the job listing that just went up at Harvard.” — ADAM CLARK ESTES AT GIZMODO.COM

mocks a job opening at Harvard University — “Wikipedian-inResidence.” The job is less silly than it sounds: It’s an assistant archival position for the school’s early modern books and manuscripts collection.

“While the drizzle was fairly accurate to cream cheese frosting, the donut tasted more like chapstick than the dessert.” — BLOGGER MANDY AT SOGOODBLOG.COM reviews

Dunkin’ Donuts’ Red Velvet Drizzle doughnut this week as its seasonal stint at the fast-food chain comes to an end. “I wanted to like it, I love red velvet treats, but it was too crayon-tasting and not enough donut or dessert,” Mandy says.

Research Study for Women with Endometriosis The SOLSTICE study is evaluating an investigational drug to see if it is safe and how well it works to manage endometriosis pain.

Sudoku

DIFFICULT

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Another’s health may throw a wrench in the works. It should take only a minor adjustment for you to tend to all current duties. ARIES (March 21-April 19) Avoid arguments, and do what you can to stop those in which others are engaged. Harmony and agreement count for much. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) What you say is not likely to be as important as how you say it. Guard against using a tone that could be misinterpreted. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Continuity is the key to a successful day. You don’t want to go at things in a random manner. Everything is a part of the whole. CANCER (June 21-July 22) The adversary you are preparing to face is a formidable one, to be sure — but you have something going for you that he or she doesn’t know about.

Wednesday’s Solution

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) You may not be certain of your own position, but if you follow another’s lead and listen to your own instincts, you’ll do just fine.

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

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You may not be aware of all the ins and outs of certain key negotiations, but you can still affect the outcome by speaking your mind. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You must seek all pertinent information in order to come out on top; without up-to-date facts and figures, you can’t compete.

Comics

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) A message you receive has two distinct parts, and each seems to contradict the other — until you read between the lines. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You are your own best friend and ally, but this doesn’t mean you should refuse help from another if it’s offered!

DAILY CODE

POOCH CAFE | PAUL GILLIGAN

Today: Very windy today; mostly sunny and much colder. Mainly clear tonight.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Someone you know well has been keeping something from you, and you’re likely to find out what it is — and its significance — before nightfall. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You can gain some valuable new experience that will serve you well almost immediately as you face a new challenge after dark.
