and noticed something again. Then “a whale just came up and breached,” he said. “We turned our eyes and then saw another breach.” Lehan laughed and said, “He put on a pretty good show for us and the few other boats that were around.” Lehan spent decades as a charter boat captain along the bay and also has a catering business. In his years on the water, Lehan said
he had seen whales but was surprised to see one that far up in the bay and to see it so many times. “You see porpoises in the bay that far up and smaller whales, but to see one that big was really a shock,” he said. Lehan and his fellow fishermen estimated the humpback came out of the water 10 to 12 times over about 20 minutes. The whale was about 150 feet away. A few of them fumbled to get their cellphones out to take videos of the whale, as they juggled getting clear shots in the rain and not losing their fishing lines. Lehan said he immediately sent the video to his brother, who was on land. James G. Mead, a curator emeritus of marine mammals at the Smithsonian, said the fishermen likely did see a humpback whale. But it isn’t all that unusual. He said a recent survey found that in May there was a “gathering of humpback whales off the mouth of the Chesapeake Bay.” “It’s probably one of those,” M e a d s a id .

And then there it was, on a slightly gray video because of the rain: a humpback whale breaching several times in waters about five miles off Solomons Island, Md., in the Chesapeake Bay. A group of seven fishermen captured the humpback whale breaching Friday afternoon. They were fishing for striped bass as a light rain shower fell. The group said they were rather shocked to see the humpback, which they estimated was 35 to 40 feet long. David Lehan, who lives in Lusby near Solomons Island and was the one who captured the humpback’s breaching on his cellphone’s video, recalled the weekend fishing expedition and whale sighting. He said he “noticed a splash” and then looked a second time

Insider Van Hollen wins in the year of outsiders
Va. senator travels to Syria to praise Assad
MARYLAND Rep. Chris Van Hollen won a hard-fought Senate primary that exposed racial and gender divisions within the Maryland Democratic Party, defeating Rep. Donna Edwards for the nomination. He will compete in November for a rare open Senate seat, from which Sen. Barbara Mikulski, a Democrat, is retiring after 30 years. African-American turnout reached record levels, exceeding 2008, when Barack Obama first ran for president, and outnumbering white voters, according to exit polls. Yet the candidate who would have been Maryland’s first black senator and the second black woman to ever serve in the U.S. Senate fell short. Moments after conceding at a union hall in Prince George’s County, Edwards gave a pointed speech, criticizing her “friends in the state Democratic Party,” which she said is on the verge of “an all-male delegation in a so-called progressive state.” She said Democrats cannot continue to ignore women and people of color. At the Bethesda Marriott, a crowd of 300 heard Van Hollen praise Edwards “for being a strong advocate for Democratic Party values and priorities.” Asked about the prospect of Maryland’s first all-male congressional delegation since Mikulski’s election in 1986, Van Hollen said he has worked to elect people of all backgrounds and has support from female
POLITICS A Virginia senator with a history of controversial behavior has traveled to Syria on a threeday trip this week in support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad. Sen. Richard H. Black, R-Loudoun, has met with Assad government officials as part of his ongoing attempt to bring attention to what he has said are persecuted Christians. “I will be Syria’s voice,” Black told officials, according to the government-controlled news agency. A spokesman for the Senate Republican caucus, Jeff Ryer, could not immediately say who is paying for the trip. Messages left at Black’s legislative offices have not been returned. “Sen. Black is traveling to the Middle East as part of his longstanding efforts to protect the safety of Christians in that part of the world,” Ryer said. This is not the first time Black, a Vietnam veteran and former Army lawyer, has had contact with the Assad regime. In 2014, he wrote a letter in praise of Assad that was posted on the Syrian president’s Facebook page. Black is one of the most conservative members of the General Assembly and recently made headlines for a testy email exchange with a Loudoun public school teacher over a bill related to the teaching of sexually explicit material in classrooms.

and African-American elected officials. “Ultimately, people decide who is best to represent all of us,” he said. “I’m going to fight hard as I always have to make sure we address issues that are important to women, families, all of us.” Van Hollen ultimately won a third of the black electorate, which, combined with his strength among white, wealthier, older and more-educated voters, catapulted him to the lead. In a year when outsiders have captured the national imagination, Maryland Democrats chose the insiders: the deal-making Van Hollen and presidential frontrunner Hillary Clinton. The race was close and contentious for months, as two 57-yearold members of Congress sacrificed safe seats to reach for the Senate and stake a claim to the progressive vote in the heavily Democratic state.
Van Hollen, who built a reputation over two decades in public office as a policy-steeped negotiator and who rose quickly into the House Democratic leadership, ultimately triumphed over Edwards, a black single mother with an activist history but fewer political allies. Van Hollen vastly outspent his rival, $6.3 million to $2.7 million. Outside groups helped close that gap: $5 million was spent on behalf of Edwards, compared with $1.6 million on behalf of Van Hollen. But an anti-Van Hollen ad run by the group Working for Us that used video of President Barack Obama may have done Edwards more harm than good by provoking the ire of the White House. Van Hollen will face Republican Kathy Szeliga, a state delegate who represents parts of Baltimore and Harford counties, in November. RACHEL WEINER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Justices seem to lean in McDonnell’s favor Former Va. governor’s corruption conviction could be overturned
VIRGINIA The Supreme Court could make it tougher for the government to crack down on public corruption, signaling Wednesday that it may overturn former Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell’s federal bribery conviction. Justices across the ideological spectrum expressed concerns during arguments in the case that current laws give prosecutors too much power to criminalize the everyday things politicians do to help constituents. The case has broad implications for prosecutors who have relied on federal bribery laws to convict prominent political figures such as former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich and former Alabama Gov. Don Siegelman. And it could affect the current case against New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez, charged with accepting campaign contributions and luxury trips from a wealthy donor in exchange for performing political favors. McDonnell, who was in the courtroom with his wife Maureen to watch the arguments, was convicted in 2014 of accepting more than $165,000 in gifts and loans from a wealthy

businessman in exchange for promoting a dietary supplement. At issue is a federal law that bars public officials from accepting money or gifts in exchange for “official acts.” The court is trying to clarify what distinguishes bribery from the routine actions — setting up meetings, attending conferences — that politicians often do for those they represent. But the justices struggled over how to draw that line. Both Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Stephen Breyer suggested the bribery law could be considered unconstitutionally vague. Breyer said the law presents “a real separation of powers problem” and “puts at risk behavior that is common.”
“That is a recipe for giving the Department of Justice and the prosecutors enormous power over elected officials,” Breyer said. Roberts said it was “extraordinary” that dozens of former White House attorneys and state attorneys general, from both sides of the political aisle, submitted legal papers saying that upholding McDonnell’s conviction would cripple the ability of elected officials to do their jobs. McDonnell insists his role in setting up meetings and hosting events for Star Scientific Inc. CEO Jonnie Williams was part of the customary services doled out by every politician. A ruling is expected by late June. SAM HANANEL (AP)

nation+world In hush-money case, judge calls ex-speaker a ‘serial child molester’ COURTS Dennis Hastert, the Republican who for eight years presided over the House and was second in the line of succession to the presidency, was sentenced Wednesday to more than a year in prison in the hush-money case that included accusations he sexually abused teenagers while coaching high school wrestling. Judge Thomas M. Durkin also ordered Hastert to undergo sexoffender treatment, spend two years on supervised release after 15 months behind bars and pay a $250,000 fine to a crime
victims’ fund. In explaining his punishment, the judge called Hastert a “serial child molester” and described as “unconscionable” his attempt to accuse one of the victims of extortion. Hastert becomes one of the highest-ranking politicians in American history to be sentenced to prison. He pleaded guilty last fall to violating banking law as he sought to pay $3.5 million to someone referred to in court papers only as Individual A to keep the sex abuse secret. Earlier in the hearing, a former athlete who said he was molested decades ago by Hastert — who was a history teacher and coach from 1965 to 1981 at Yorkville High School outside of Chicago

— told the courtroom that he was “devastated” by the abuse. The man, now in his 50s, said Hastert abused him while they
were alone in a locker room. He struggled to hold back tears as he described the incident in detail. In the years since, he said, he sought professional help and had trouble sleeping. He said the memory still causes him pain. In his own statement, Hastert admitted that he “mistreated” some of his athletes and said he was “deeply ashamed.” “I am sorry to those I hurt and misled,” he said. “What I did was wrong and I regret it.” When the judge asked whether he sexually abused one wrestler specifically, Hastert said yes. Authorities alleged that Hastert abused at least four students throughout his years at the school. He will report to prison at a later date. MICHAEL TARM (AP)

Elon Musk’s SpaceX plans to land an unmanned spacecraft on Mars as soon as 2018 with the help of NASA, an extraordinary collaboration between the public and private sectors in an effort to eventually get humans to the Red Planet. SpaceX announced the plan Wednesday on Twitter, laying out an ambitious timeline — the goal is to send people to Mars in the 2030s — for an incredibly difficult mission that only governments have dared try. Landing a spacecraft or a robot that can then operate successfully on the Martian surface is so difficult that the U.S. is the only country to have done it, and many attempts over the years have failed. While NASA continues to pursue its own deep space missions, it has also spent years helping to support a robust commercial space industry. NASA will provide expertise but not funds for this endeavor. Musk, who also runs Tesla, founded SpaceX more than 10 years ago with the goal of colonizing Mars. But getting there is exceedingly difficult. On average, Mars is 140 million miles from Earth, although the planets come to within about 35 million miles every 26 months. Skeptics think that despite its grand aspirations, NASA is nowhere close to getting humans there. CHRISTIAN DAVENPORT

Prepare for a gender war Trump’s latest attack on Clinton claims she’s playing ‘woman’s card’
Seeking a boost, Cruz taps Fiorina as running mate
JUSTIN SULLIVAN (GETTY IMAGES)
POLITICS Donald Trump’s accusation that Hillary Clinton is playing the “woman’s card” and would be a failed candidate if she were a man touched off a contentious debate about gender politics and sexism that seems likely to define the presidential election as much as any issue. While celebrating sweeping victories in five primaries Tuesday, Trump mocked the qualifications of the Democratic frontrunner, saying she would be a bad president who lacks “strength.” The remarks seemed a preview of a general election strategy to use Clinton’s potential to be the first female president against her. “Frankly, if Hillary Clinton were a man, I don’t think she’d get 5 percent of the vote. The only thing she’s got going is the women’s card,” Trump said during a news conference at Trump Tower. “And the beautiful thing is, women don’t like her.” That was a significant expansion of Trump’s by now familiar claims that Clinton is unqualified. It also crystallized the question of how America will reckon with the first presidential election between a man and a woman. Clinton allies and the campaign itself have been startled by what some call Trump’s unsubtle line of attack, which stands in dramatic contrast to the more

subtle presence of race in President Obama’s historic election eight years ago. But most Clinton allies consider the newly escalated gender wars of 2016 a helpful point of comparison that she can use to rally women’s support. “They might make flashy headlines, but Trump’s comments aren’t a joke,” Clinton’s campaign wrote Wednesday. “Hillary can handle these attacks. Millions of women shouldn’t have to.” In television interviews Wednesday, Trump dismissed critics who called the electionnight remarks sexist. “It’s not sexist. It’s true,” Trump said on ABC’s “Good Morning America” on Wednesday
morning. “She’s not going to do very well in the election, and I look forward to showing that.” Trump has won women voters on average by 10 percentage points over his rivals in Republican primary contests. On Tuesday, he won by more than 20 points among female voters in Connecticut, Maryland and Pennsylvania. But Trump’s successes in winning Republican women has not translated to popularity with women or men in the broader electorate, where he continues to be deeply unpopular. A USA Today/Suffolk University poll released this week found 66 percent of women likely voters nationwide have an unfavorable view of Trump, compared with
48 percent who have a negative opinion of Clinton. Clinton has built a 2016 campaign focused on issues of keen interest to women voters, including equal pay, health care and paid family leave. After deliberately playing down her gender in her loss in the 2008 race, Clinton now talks freely of her own experiences in the workplace and in politics. In one of a blizzard of Twitter messages about the remarks Wednesday, Clinton said: “Women still face too many barriers — a president shouldn’t be part of the problem. Comments like Trump’s set us back.” A N N E G E A R A N A N D K AT I E Z E Z I M A (THE WASHINGTON POST)

POLITICS Ted Cruz, in an apparent act of desperation, announced Wednesday that Carly Fiorina will be his vice presidential running mate if he is the Republican nominee for president. Announcing a running mate is an unusual step that comes as he trails GOP front-runner Donald Trump by a wide margin and faces an increasingly narrow path to the Republican nomination. Cruz hopes to gain steam in what amounts to a must-win for him in Tuesday’s Indiana primary. A day before the announcement, Trump drubbed Cruz in five Eastern states and stretched his overall lead in delegates to nearly 400. Fiorina, a former Republican presidential candidate who endorsed Cruz in March, has been one of his most active surrogates. The former HewlettPackard chief executive has been an outspoken critic of both Trump and Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton. “If I am nominated to be president of the United States, I will run on a ticket with my vice presidential nominee, Carly Fiorina,” Cruz said at a Wednesday afternoon rally. Trump quickly responded. “After massive defeats … and given the fact that Senator Cruz has millions of votes less than me and is being clobbered on the delegate front, this is a pure waste of time,” he said in a statement.

Trump struggles to explain his ‘America first’ policy
Obama plans to visit Flint, Mich., next week
A female suicide bomber blew herself up in a historic district of Turkey’s fourth-largest city on Wednesday, wounding 13 people, according to officials. The assailant was “aged about 25” and only fragments were left of her body after the attack in the city of Bursa, said Turkey’s health minister. Turkey, which is facing growing blowback from the conflict in Syria and renewed conflict with Kurdish militants, has recently witnessed an uptick of such attacks. (AP)
Donald Trump strained to lay out a clear vision of his “America first” foreign policy Wednesday, vowing to substitute hard-headed realism for what he called a post-Cold War era replete with national security failures. Yet the GOP front-runner, speaking in Washington, outlined no strategy for making the U.S. both a “consistent” and “unpredictable” force. And he didn’t appear to allay the concerns of critics who see him as unfit for the responsibilities of commander in chief. (AP)
President Barack Obama, responding to the request of an 8-year-old girl from Flint, Mich., will travel there May 4 to talk with residents concerned about the high level of lead contamination in their water. Mari Copeny, who acquired the nickname Little Miss Flint for her vocal activism on the issue of lead exposure, wrote Obama last month when she was preparing to come to D.C. to watch Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder testify before the House Oversight Committee. (TWP)

Paris suspect will talk, lawyer says Abdeslam is returned from Belgium to France to face terror charges PARIS Paris attacks suspect Salah Abdeslam — Europe’s most wanted fugitive until his capture in Belgium last month — has been returned to France and charged with a host of terror-related offenses, his lawyer said Wednesday. The return of the last known survivor of those believed to have carried out the Nov. 13 attacks on the French capital may help investigators answer questions about the assault, which claimed 130 lives at restaurants, a music hall and a sports stadium outside the city. The Islamic State group claimed responsibility. Attorney Frank Berton told reporters that his client “volunteered that he would explain himself at some later date.” He told iTele TV that Abdeslam wants to talk, and that “he has things to say, that he wants to explain his route to radicalization” as well as his role in the attacks — but not take responsibility for the crimes of others. The 26-year-old, a French citizen of Moroccan origin, faces preliminary charges of participating in a terrorist organization, terrorist murders and attempted murders, attempted

Berton said Abdeslam was being sent to Fleury-Merogis, a high-security prison south of Paris, until his hearing on May 20. Abdeslam’s precise role in the attacks has never been clear. The Paris prosecutor said he was kitted out as a suicide bomber, but abandoned his plans and fled to Belgium. His older brother blew himself up that night at a cafe. In a surprising assessment, Abdeslam’s Belgian lawyer, Sven Mary, dismissed his client as a “little jerk among Molenbeek’s little delinquents, more a follower than a leader.” Mary told the French newspaper Liberation: “He has the intelligence of an empty ashtray.” (AP)

A message from Metro General Manager Paul J. Wiedefeld Track work is a phrase that elicits groans across the region, and rightfully so. Weekends and evenings, and between weekday rush hours, Metro sends repair crews out on the rail system to fix issues big and small. Track work usually involves single tracking or the complete closure of a segment of track, which in turn means delays for our customers. What’s clear to me, after a few months at the helm of Metro, is our approach to rail maintenance is not working. Metro has lurched from crisis to crisis, as the backlog of maintenance work grows.
And customers haven’t seen measurable improvements, despite the ongoing—and often unpredictable—track work. That’s why I’ve instructed my team to come up with a new approach that takes a holistic look at our system’s needs, including infrastructure improvements and federal safety recommendations. The team is working now to put together a comprehensive track plan that projects out, for an entire year, how and where we need to work to get our system back to a state of good repair. The details are not yet ready, but I will inform you as soon as I am confident that this plan can be executed and can get the results we all
need. There are a few things I can tell you now. One, this track maintenance plan will require tough sacrifices by our customers when work is being done on your line. And two, we need more time on the tracks. That may result in an adjustment to our hours of operations so maintenance teams have time to move heavy machinery into place, get work accomplished, and then clean up before the first customers arrive on the platform. The solutions to Metro’s problems won’t be easy, but they are necessary to return the system to where we all want it to be. Please know, I am committed to improving the safety and reliability of our Metrorail system, once and for all.

NFL MOCK DRAFT
How draft will unfold Washington Post NFL writer Mark Maske predicts the Redskins will take Alabama DE/ DT Jarran Reed at No. 21. Here is how Maske sees the top 15. 1 Rams (from Titans):

NFL DRAFT | ROUND 1: 8 TONIGHT, ESPN, NFL NETWORK
Eight isn’t enough
Redskins GM might make trades tonight to wind up with as many as a dozen picks REDSKINS Since he took charge of the Redskins’ front office 16 months ago, Scot McCloughan has preached the value of building through the draft. That was a new philosophy for a club that long valued free agents over college prospects. A year ago, he entered his first Redskins draft with seven picks. He pulled off trades to wind up with 10, and saw five of those players play significant roles in the Redskins’ NFC East title run. When the draft starts tonight (8 p.m., ESPN/NFL Network), McCloughan will have eight picks (one each in rounds 1 through 6, and two seventh-rounders). He would like to wind up with 12. Even with all of the research he does on each player, he knows
the draft isn’t an exact science. But more picks increase a smart executive’s chance for success. His priorities are defensive line, center, inside linebacker, safety, quarterback, running back and wide receiver, in that order. But McCloughan said he will resist the urge to reach. If his top-rated defensive linemen are gone when the Redskins pick at No. 21, he won’t take a defensive lineman who carries a grade appropriate for the middle of the second round or later. He said he would go with the best player available, regardless of position. Because of injuries, he said, a general manager never can anticipate all of his needs. “We’re going to take a football player,” he said.
When Washington goes on the clock, defensive linemen such as Alabama’s Jarran Reed, Baylor’s Andrew Billings or Mississippi’s Robert Nkemdiche could be available. But the desire to land more picks could win out. It’s possible that a team such as New England — which doesn’t have a first-round pick, but has two second-rounders, two thirdrounders, four sixth-rounders and two seventh-rounders — comes calling. That would position Washington to take a step toward achieving McCloughan’s 12-pick goal. And the Redskins could still land a starting-caliber defensive lineman in Round 2, where UCLA’s Kenny Clark or South Carolina State’s Javon Hargrave figure to remain.
McCloughan said trade talks with other teams have yet to take place, but he expects to get calls today. So look for him to try to stockpile selections and improve the roster from top to bottom. “It’s a strong draft, it really is, on both sides of the ball,” he said. Another trade scenario could involve the Broncos, who are expected to take a QB, trying to move up from 31st overall to ensure they get their man. If Washington swapped first-rounders with Denver to get extra picks, the Redskins still would have a Round 1 choice to address their need for a center (Notre Dame’s Nick Martin) or safety (West Virginia’s Karl Joseph). Then they would revisit the D-line.

REDSKINS’ FIRST ROUND
Teams can hit on 21
What kind of defensive help can the Redskins get with the 21st overall pick tonight? In recent years, teams have found valuable defensive talent in that slot. In 2007, the Jaguars took FS Reggie Nelson at No. 21. Now with the Bengals, he is coming off a Pro Bowl season. In 2012, the Patriots chose DE Chandler Jones, another 2015 Pro Bowler who was the key piece in a recent trade with Arizona. And in 2014, the Packers took safety Ha Ha Clinton Dix at No. 21; he has started 30 games in a row.

CAPITALS VS. PENGUINS | GAME 1: 8 TONIGHT, NBCSN
2 superstars meet again Ovechkin and Crosby have matured but still set tone for their teams
Wizards, coach downplay his ties to Durant
BRUCE BENNETT (AP)
NHL PLAYOFFS Much has changed in the seven years since the Capitals and Penguins last met in the postseason, ranging from the teams’ coaches, to the makeup of their rosters to their styles of play. While captains Alex Ovechkin and Sidney Crosby are among the constants, they too have changed since the Penguins beat the Capitals in a seven-game, second-round series in 2009. After all, Ovechkin, 30, and Crosby, 28, are no longer youngsters but are mature veterans heading into Game 1 of their series tonight at Verizon Center (8 p.m., NBCSN). “It shows up in different parts of their game — being more disciplined and responsible in how they actively lead their teams,” said Capitals defenseman Brooks Orpik, who played with Crosby in Pittsburgh (2005-2014) before signing with Washington. Orpik is one of four former Penguins playing for the Capitals, along with forward Daniel Winnik and defensemen Taylor Chorney and Matt Niskanen. Niskanen marvels at what the superstars have done year after year: “Both fantastic on the ice the way they contribute to the game and their teams. It’s amazing the consistency of
Alex Ovechkin, left, and Sidney Crosby greet each other during their first playoff meeting, in 2009.
production they’ve had over the last 10 years.” When the Penguins and Capitals met in the 2009 playoffs, the series was billed as a showdown between rising stars. After Ovechkin and Crosby scored three goals each in a 4-3 Capitals win in Game 2, Washington’s coach at the time, Bruce Boudreau, was duly impressed. “When you build the hype of superstars playing against each other and then the superstars play like superstars, it’s a neat thing,” he said. “Fun to talk about.” Seven years later, Ovechk i n’s c u r rent c o ach se es
things differently. “I think it’s actually quite disrespectful if it’s one against one, if it’s Crosby vs. Ovechkin,” Barry Trotz said. “That’s a good storyline for [the media]. But in reality, I think it’s quite disrespectful to every player that’s in there because everybody has contributed a lot to the success of both teams. You don’t have success with one person, you have success with a group.” Ovechkin, still seeking his first trip to the conference finals, has maintained that the focus of this series should go beyond the NHL’s top two scorers
since 2005. “You forget they have [Evgeni] Malkin, we have [Nicklas] Backstrom,” said Ovechkin. “They have [Phil] Kessel, we have [Evgeny] Kuznetsov. You can match up any names because so many offensive weapons on both teams. But I think the team wins, not like individuals win.” Still, Ovechkin’s linemate, T.J. Oshie, believes players like Crosby and Ovechkin can set the tone. “This is their time to shine,” Oshie said, “and everyone else is supposed to follow.” BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)

Nationals call up reliever Sammy Solis after hot start at Class AAA Syracuse; Wilson Ramos on bereavement leave
WIZARDS Last week, Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld and vice president Tommy Sheppard flew to Newport Beach, Calif., with one directive from owner Ted Leonsis: Get Scott Brooks to be the franchise’s next coach. Brooks met with the execs in a hotel for 10 hours as they pitched the team’s talented nucleus and ample cap space. Brooks didn’t need much cajoling. Other organizations were interested, but the former Thunder coach said he already had decided he wanted the Wizards’ job. A day later, Brooks agreed to a five-year, $35 million deal to replace Randy Wittman. Brooks was introduced Wednesday at Verizon Center. “I got everything I wanted, and I wasn’t looking for anything else,” he said. Brooks, 50, took Oklahoma City to the West finals three times and once to the NBA Finals. Although Brooks hasn’t emphasized it publicly, he has extensive history with impending free agent Kevin Durant. Brooks was with Durant for the Montrose Christian product’s first seven NBA seasons — first as an assistant coach for the Seattle SuperSonics — and it is no secret that the Wizards will court Durant when free agency opens July 1. Grunfeld tried to sidestep the Brooks-Durant connection. “I like Scott Brooks as a basketball coach,” Grunfeld said. “That’s why we got him.” JORGE CASTILLO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

weekendpass In “Dancing in the Street,” David Bowie’s music frames the story of a boy in love.

A ballet’s moving tribute Two new works honor Freddie Mercury and David Bowie’s music DANCE “I’ve never been a person who uses ‘normal’ ballet music,” says Trey McIntyre, the choreographer of “Mercury Half-Life,” a ballet using the music of Queen and the late Freddie Mercury. “I’m a musician first. I studied piano for 10 years before I took my first dance class,” he says. “In some ways, pop music is more difficult than a classic symphony, for example,” McIntyre
says. “In a symphony there’s a journey that goes from this section to this section to this section, whereas pop music can be more repetitive. And with lyrics, one could simply illustrate what the lyrics are saying and use that as a script.” “Mercury Half-Life,” which has no traditional plot and uses 15 Queen songs, is the first act of “Bowie & Queen,” The Washington Ballet’s latest production. The second act is “Dancing in the Street,” in which choreographer Edwaard Liang created a love story based on the music of David Bowie, who died in January.
Liang, too, had to deal with the presence of lyrics when it came to building his piece. “With music that has lyrics to it, either you use the lyrics to tell the story, or you use the lyrics as though they are music itself,” Liang. “I used the lyrics to help with the storyline.” Liang also had to find a way to link three unrelated Bowie songs — “Good Morning Girl,” “I’m Not Losing Sleep” and “Dancing in the Street” — into a cohesive unit. “I asked [composer] Gabriel Gaffney Smith to compose new music that threads everything together so it would
‘The Meddler’
indies The meddling mom is a tired movie trope, but “The Meddler,” opening Friday, +arties manages to breathe new life into the mainstay — largely thanks to Susan
Sarandon’s portrayal. Sarandon plays Marnie, who moves to be closer to her daughter Lori (Rose Byrne, nicely balancing exasperation with her abundant comedy chops). While Marnie’s behavior is typical of the genre, Sarandon’s performance saves it from descending into cliche, making “Meddler” a bit sweeter and saner than other movies like it. Also, call your mom.

be seamless,” he says. Both men want to inspire their audience to reinterpret music that many people already know. Their dances stand to serve the music, not necessarily the other way around. “I think music is a very easy crutch; you can just merely illustrate what’s happening in it,” McIntyre says. “I want to make sure I have something to add to the story. With [this], there was something I knew I could contribute.” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)
Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; Wed. through May 15, $32-$130.
In “Keanu,” out Friday, two friends hunt for their stolen kitten. Kittens are rarely the focus of a search, which is a bummer — these objects of desire would be even more desirable if they were replaced with widdle biddy fuzzballs yes they would yes they would. ROSEBUD: How do you make Charles Foster Kane, the egomaniacal, selfish antihero of “Citizen Kane,” more likable? Make his deathbed utterance a reference to a kitty, rather than a … OK, we won’t spoil it. THE MALTESE FALCON: In the noir classic, a whole bunch of people are willing to lie, cheat, kill and steal to obtain a jeweled statue of a bird. Replace it with a cat, hand Bogey a laser pointer, and boom! Movie over. THE BRIEFCASE: The glowing cargo of “Pulp Fiction” is one of film’s greatest MacGuffins. But wouldn’t it be better if John Travolta just left the case open and let a cat come and sit in it? Because eventually a cat would. PRIVATE RYAN: “Saving Private Ryan” showed in brutal detail the horror WWII soldiers went through, while asking the fundamental question about what a life is worth. But how much better would it have been if Matt Damon were replaced by a tabby in a tiny helmet? THE ARK OF THE COVENANT:
In “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” everyone seeks this biblical proof that God is with his people. Kittens are proof that God loves adorableness, plus they have fewer face-melting properties.

It’s a $250 meal worth every cent DINING The biggest question facing Aaron Silverman before he unleashed Pineapple and Pearls, the chef-owner’s hotly anticipated follow-up to Rose’s Luxury on Capitol Hill, had nothing to do with design or food, but how to present the $250 bill to diners. Before the 15-course meal? After the parade? “Either way, you’re going to pay for it,” says Silverman, recently honored as one of Food & Wine’s Best New Chefs. “Why not get it out of the way?” When hopeful diners reserve online for Pineapple and Pearls (and good luck with that), they pay half the amount up front. The day of their rendezvous, they settle the rest of the bill, which is inclusive of drinks, tax and tip. The only task left for guests is to show up at 715 Eighth St. SE and enjoy the ride, an hourslong journey that is by turns playful, astonishing and an example for other ambitious restaurants to emulate. Rush-hour traffic delays my arrival, but multiple hosts, gathered near a quartzite counter used by Silverman’s daytime coffee shop, which occupies the front of the space, assure me my tardiness is no problem for them.
Would I like a “welcome” cocktail? There are two libations, both made by beverage maestro Jeff Faile; my bourbon-based choice, a classic Gold Rush with lemon and honey, came garnished with a cherry and gold leaf. Would I prefer to sit at the bar or go directly to my seat in the dining room? I opt to meet my guest at our table. Pineapple and Pearls is all about the guest’s wishes. Well, except for anyone who hates surprises. Like a number of trailblazing restaurants, including Komi and Minibar by Jose Andres, this one makes you wait until the end of dinner for a list of what you ate. It’s grins all around with the arrival of some snacks. One is a sublime riff on chips and dip, featuring airy tapioca chips and lush spring onion dip. The second finds masa pillows filled with minced leeks, fava beans, chickpeas, jalapeno and lime. Devotees of the clever combinations at the four-star Rose’s Luxury will recognize a similar theme at Pineapple and Pearls, except that everything at the new place is “more dressed up,” Silverman says. “Same soul, different outfit.” Exhibit A is a savory yogurtfilled bonbon teetering on an absinthe spoon above a coupe of fennel juice, green apple, celery and absinthe: a bite and a sip as revivifying as they are regal.
Pineapple and Pearls is all about the guest’s wishes. Well, except for anyone who hates surprises.

Pineapple and Pearls wins over Post food critic Tom Sietsema
Clockwise from top left: Recent dishes at Pineapple and Pearls have included bone marrow served in eggshells, fennel and absinthe bonbons and white asparagus okonomiyaki, all served in the 20-seat dining room.
The fifth course is delivered by one of four chefs, who shows up with a flame-warmed copper pot of garlicky, Parmesanenriched consomme. Egg yolk is stirred into the soup, which is then poured over a little garden of spring vegetables. A meat platter brings meltingly tender smoked beef rib, seasoned with mole and escorted with three divine sauces: garlic crema, stinging-nettle salsa verde and an additional mole. The hospitality and cooking
are matched by the design. The sleek Portuguese utensils are so light you wonder how they stay on the table. Same for the elegant Austrian wine glasses, which are looked after by a full-time polisher. As captivating as the food is, eyes are also drawn to the walls of the 20-seat dining room, where Baltimore artist Jowita Wyszomirska used strings, pins, paint markers and Mylar to create a mural that resembles a three-dimensional forest. Desserts, from pastry chef
Kim Janusz, are as novel as anything that precedes them. One of multiple thrills stars pecorino cheese in a cake served with basil gelato, toasted pine nuts and sliced strawberries. Classicists will applaud the warm chocolate souffle paired with honeycomb ice cream; doughnut worshippers will delight at a parting gift of four tiny doughnuts in a carton with a plastic window. No problem if you’re vegetarian, can’t tolerate gluten or don’t imbibe. The kitchen can tailor the experience to suit your needs. “It’s what we do,” the chef says. Two hundred fifty dollars is a serious investment for one meal. But when you factor in everything the tab includes, and put it up against similarly priced restaurants, the only lingering question is this: How soon can I do it again?

This World War II-era restored SBD Dauntless dive bomber hangs at the center of the Marine Corps museum.
DAVE ELLIS PHOTOS (THE FREE LANCE-STAR /AP)
EXHIBIT In October 1943, as war raged in Europe, a student pilot crashed an SBD Dauntless dive bomber into Lake Michigan during a training mission. The pilot was rescued but the aircraft sank to the lake bottom, where it would remain for half a century. By the time the National Museum of the Marine Corps in Triangle, Va., acquired the ill-fated Dauntless in 2008, corrosion had done a number on it. Fifty pounds of lake sediment had collected in the wings. Five workers spent 63,000 hours removing, rebuilding and piecing each part back together. Their efforts were so meticulous that the bomber is practically airworthy, says exhibit services chief Chuck Girbovan. The Dauntless, newly suspended above the central gallery as if in flight once more, is one of two recently installed features that greets visitors at the newly reopened museum. Also new: a Sikorsky UH-34D helicopter, part of a scene that recreates the Marines’ first major ground operation in Vietnam. The changes mark the last time a plane or helicopter will be brought into the Leatherneck Gallery, Girbovan says, because workers had to remove the front end of the museum to get them in. The new displays were years in the making. The Sikorsky that will serve as a backdrop for museum events did see combat. It flew in Vietnam from 1964 to 1969, including August 1965, when thousands of Marines were inserted by helicopter into an open rice paddy over seven days during Operation Starlite. More than 40 Marines lost their lives; 203 were wounded.

A Vietnam-era Sikorsky UH-34D helicopter is part of a battle re-creation.
More than three decades later, the Marine Helicopter Squadron 361 Veterans Association bought its stripped shell to restore as a flying memorial. Having served that purpose, the Sikorsky made its final flight to the museum in 2013, where it serves as the centerpiece in a dramatic battle scene. The dive bomber spent more than a decade in the possession of the National Naval Aviation
“A lot of time went into being correct with the imperfections.” BEN KRISTY, aviation curator at the National Museum of the Marine Corps, on the World War II-era SBD Dauntless dive bomber that was meticulously restored and now hangs over the Triangle, Va., museum’s main gallery
Museum, which recovered it from Lake Michigan in the 1990s. The Marine Corps museum acquired it in a 2008 transfer, aviation curator Ben Kristy says. By 2009, restoration was underway. The bomber never saw combat. But workers used historic photographs and nearly complete factory drawings to portray the first Dauntless that flew in the Guadalcanal in the Pacific Theater in 1942, he says. They manufactured parts that were missing or too damaged to fix, and they did it using the same profiles and methods used 60 years ago. They made tools no longer in existence. They mimicked repairs made in the field and recreated mistakes made by the Marines who painted bombers on the way to war. “A lot of time went into being correct with the imperfections,” Kristy says.

This “Ring” is set in America, including (clockwise from upper left) a gold mine, a country home, a 1930s airfield and a derelict mobile home.
By the numbers With a flaming mountain, a poison-spitting dragon and flying warrior women, the Washington National Opera’s production of “The Ring” is a massive undertaking. Here are some numbers from this production. S.D.

‘The Ring,’ whole or skim Spend 15 hours on Wagnerian opera, or take these shortcuts STAGE Many people would rather throw themselves on a flaming funeral pyre than sit through four long operas. And yet, the Washington National Opera’s upcoming production of Richard Wagner’s “The Ring of the Nibelung,” which starts Saturday, is nearly 95 percent of the way to sold out. “In the United States, a performance of the entire Ring Cycle is a rare event, so it’s something that brings people from all around the country and even the world,” says Washington National Opera spokesman Michael Solomon. Judith Martin, also known as
the newspaper columnist Miss Manners, is among the lucky ticket holders. “Devoting an entire week to opera, it’s a form of insanity,” she admits. “What attracts me is the music. It’s very sensuous.” Though an acquired taste, “The Ring” is more accessible than one might realize. After all, these operas share a central plot element with the wildly popular “Lord of the Rings” franchise: a magical trinket that grants unimaginable power to anyone who wields it. (Wagner borrowed the concept from Norse mythology before J.R.R. Tolkien did.) Dragons, dwarfs and men fight over the ring, which also curses its bearer. This production, by WNO artistic director Francesca
Zambello, doesn’t change the opera’s text, but uses costumes and sets to move the action to America. The gods, for instance, are reimagined as Gilded Age tycoons, the dwarfs as America’s underclass and the winged warriors known as the Valkyries are Amelia Earhart-style aviatrixes. “Everyone will have their own interpretation of this production, but it does cover a lot of American history and American iconography, which makes it seem very approachable,” Solomon says. If you still aren’t ready to sit through all 15 hours of Wagnerian opera, here are some ways to dip your toes in. Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; Sat. through May 22, $75-$525.

Go to a performance of Wagner’s greatest hits You probably won’t get any of Wagner’s arias stuck in your head, but you might be bowled over by their emotional power, especially when you hear them at close range at this performance of “The Ring” highlights and pieces from other well-known operas. Kennedy Center, Millen-
“Sing Faster” is an hour-long 1999 documentary on “The Ring” told from the perspective of union stagehands as they wrangle huge sets and a hydraulic dragon’s snapping jaws at the San Francisco Opera. AFI Silver, 8633 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; May 25, 7 p.m., $13.
Get tickets to the shortest opera of the four At 2.5 hours with no intermission, “The Rhinegold” requires some serious sitzfleisch — German for the butt’s ability to endure prolonged sitting. That said, the first of the cycle’s operas is action-packed: A dwarf steals gold from magical river women, forges it into a powerful ring and is tricked into turning himself into a toad by a god who later loses the ring to a pair of giants. Kennedy Center; Sat., 7 p.m., May 10, 7:30 p.m., May 17, 7:30 p.m., $75-$525.
nium Stage, May 12, 6 p.m., free.
Watch a Bugs Bunny version Get CliffsNotes from the cast Musicians from the WNO production will go over the plots of the final two chapters of “The Ring.” They’ll also demonstrate how Wagner assigned musical phrases, which he develops throughout the cycle, to characters. Kennedy Center, Millennium Stage; Thu., 6 p.m., free.
See a silent film based on the same Norse myth German director Fritz Lang based his silent “Die Nibelungen” on the same Norse myth that inspired Wagner. An organist will play the music Lang commissioned for the film. National Gallery of Art, Fourth Street and Constitution Avenue NW; May 14, 1 p.m., free.
“What’s Opera, Doc?” is supposedly a seven-minute gloss of “The Ring.” The plots don’t quite match up, but the cartoon does feature a Viking-helmeted Elmer Fudd singing “Kill the Wabbit” to the tune of the famous “Ride of the Valkyries” fanfare.

The battle of the banjos
Local fans of fiddles, festivals and folk music are faced with a tough decision on Saturday. Two festivals, both with folk and bluegrass in their names, are taking place within 45 miles of each other: Here in D.C., the Kingman Island Bluegrass and Folk Festival returns for a seventh year; in Baltimore, the Charm City Folk and Bluegrass Festival is back for its fourth edition. Which one should you attend? Let this chart help you decide. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS)
Charm City Folk and Bluegrass Festival
Kingman Island Bluegrass and Folk Festival
Druid Hill Park, 3100 Swann Drive, Baltimore; Sat., 10 a.m.-10 p.m., $57.
Kingman Island, 575 Oklahoma Ave. NE; Sat., noon-8 p.m., $25.
Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder. The mandolin player has spent a career keeping country bluegrass alive, performing such songs as “Highway 40 Blues,” “Uncle Pen” and Nashville hit “Honey (Open That Door).”
HEADLINERS
Spirit Family Reunion, the Brooklyn-based string band that plays old-timey music in a new fashion, with no ties to any particular regional tradition — making it a perfect mascot for the festival’s full spectrum of folk music.
Cabinet, a Pennsylvania bluegrass band that played Kingman Island last year and injects a jam-band mentality into a classic sound; Cris Jacobs, a Baltimore native who will trade his rock and soul band for some of the city’s best pickers.
UNDER-THE-RADAR ACTS
Lowland Hum, a North Carolina-based husband-and-wife duo with intimate, sparse folk songs; Bumper Jacksons, a local band whose brand of hornenhanced string music would sound at home on the streets of New Orleans.
Baltimore’s Union Craft Beer created Country Boy Wit, a Belgium-style witbier with orange and lemon peel, just for the festival. Baltimore’s The Local Oyster, Mother’s Grille and Otterbein’s Bakery will serve up eats.
LOCAL BITES AND BREWS
Atlas Brew Works will be slinging drinks alongside craft behemoth Sierra Nevada. Food trucks on-site will include The Big Cheese, Feelin’ Crabby, BBQ Bus, Popped! Republic, DC Empanadas and Goodies Frozen Custard.
Druid Hill Park, a bucolic 745-acre park in Northwest Baltimore that’s home to the Maryland Zoo.
SETTING
Kingman Island, a scenic recreational park on the Anacostia River near RFK Stadium.
Two, with acts alternating between them.
NO. OF STAGES
Six, with big acts on the aptly named Bluegrass and Americana stages.
Only nine acts will take the stages throughout the 12-hour festival, but it is feasible to catch every one.
TWANG FOR YOUR BUCK
Music runs from noon to 8 p.m. with more than 40 acts slated to perform (though you’d need to clone yourself to catch every set).
Keep the folk fun going at the 8x10 (10 E. Cross Street, Baltimore; Sat., 8 p.m., $18) with an after-show featuring Grand Ole’ Ditch and Love Canon.
WHAT ELSE CAN I DO?
Take a free motorboat tour of the Anacostia; purchase wares from local artisans, bring an instrument and pick your way through the Jam Tent.
No, but you could theoretically take the streetcar to Union Station, then take the MARC train or Amtrak to Baltimore, if you’re so inclined.
CAN YOU GET THERE ON THE D.C. STREETCAR?
Yes! The new streetcar line ends at the Oklahoma/Benning Road stop, which is a short walk from the festival’s gates, located through the RFK parking lot.

Nikki Glaser
STAND-UP COMIC, COMEDY CENTRAL STAR, EX-MTV HOST
DURING THE FIRST SEASON of her sex-themed Comedy Central variety show, “Not Safe with Nikki
Glaser,” the comedian has tried marijuana-infused lubricant, attended a foot-fetish party and used a lie detector to quiz her parents on their bedroom behavior. Yet, the most surprising thing the 31-year-old experienced while working on the series, which returns on June 7, was internal. “For the first time in my life, I just didn’t care what people thought and it’s been so awesome,” Glaser says. “All my life — middle school, high school — I’ve always been worried what are people going to think. I [could] only be myself in front of my core group of girlfriends and now I feel like I can be that way in front of anyone, all the time.” That attitude — and the show’s subject matter — are translating to her stand-up, which brings her to the DC Improv this weekend. RUDI GREENBERG (EXPRESS) How has the show changed the way you think about sex? Nothing really shocks me anymore. I can talk about it openly whenever I want. … It’s [also] taken a lot of fun out of sex for me because it’s just my job now, especially because I work with my boyfriend, [Chris Convy, co-executive producer and co-creator]. We met on my last show, [the 2013 MTV talk show] “Nikki and Sara Live,” and when that ended we were both doing our own things and I was like, “I want to create my show,” and he was like, “You’re kind of a huge perv so why not do something with that?”
“A lot of being a woman in this business is about how you look. … That’s not why we’re even in this business; that’s not what people want.” Is it harder or easier to work on a show like this with your partner? He is such a fantastic person to work with and he has made my
show so great. I would never fire him. I’d fire him from my vagina before I fired him from my show. What has most surprised you about doing the show? I really wasn’t anticipating how much I would discover myself in this show and how free I would become. I’ve always been one who overanalyzes myself and is so embarrassed about revealing this thing about myself and not looking perfect. When I did “Nikki and Sara Live,” I think a lot of the comedy got lost because we were always so worried about how we looked and so was the network.
Overcoming obstacles This is XX0164 3x4
The Tuesday health & fitness section in Express
weekendpass That’s a shame. A lot of being a woman in this business is about how you look. … That’s not why we’re even in this business; that’s not what people want from us. We’re valuable because we’re funny and because we have a voice and a point of view. I really was able to embrace that this season and let go of looking pretty or looking cute. What sketch from “Not Safe” are you most proud of? I really liked when I went and did that foot [fetish] experiment. My bunions are f---ing disgusting — my feet are so gross — so for me to show those [on TV], that to me felt like, ‘OK, world, this is my biggest, grossest thing and I’m leading with it.’ And we showed compassion instead of like, ‘Look
at these weirdos!’ I just thought it was a piece that encapsulated all the things I wanted the show to be: understanding this new world, exploring this new world, being interested, not being judgmental and putting myself out there. How has the show changed your stand-up? The show has helped me discover my voice and interact with the audience in a different way. I think you get to know the real me from the show, so when they come expecting that person it allows me to be myself more and tell stories more and be that silly side of myself, which is the real me.

Plus, it’s tied to what was probably D.C.’s most popular museum exhibition of 2015: the National Building Museum’s “The Beach.” Plastic balls from the ball pit exhibition will get a second life — only this time you won’t dive into them, you’ll get to move them around yourself.

Young Thug: For years, Young Thug’s yelping, staccato flow relegated him mostly to the fringes of hip-hop. And then something clicked: His sound, his look (which pays no mind to fashion or gender norms) and his trademark “Woo!” not only caught on with rap radio and club DJs, but seemed to take over. Now, critics — and even his fellow emcees — are declaring him one of the best rappers in the game. See if the lives up to the hype at the 9:30 Club Tuesday at 7 p.m.

Durst sentenced to 7 years under approved plea deal
Sam Mendes to head jury at Venice Film Festival
A Minnesota judge appointed a trust company to temporarily oversee Prince’s multimillion-dollar estate on Wednesday. Bremer Trust was named special administrator of Prince’s estate after an informal telephone conference with some of the musician’s potential heirs and a judge. In an order issued after the conference, Judge Kevin Eide said Prince died “intestate,” meaning he did not have a valid will. Prince’s sister, Tyka Nelson, asked for the special administrator on Tuesday, saying she believed her brother didn’t have a will and immediate decisions about his business interests needed to be made. (AP)
Real estate heir Robert Durst will serve 7 years, 1 month in prison for illegally carrying a .38-caliber revolver after being convicted of a felony — more than 4 ½ times the length recommended under federal guidelines. U.S. District Judge Kurt Engelhardt sentenced Durst, 72, on Wednesday in New Orleans, approving a sentence that Durst had accepted in February as part of a plea agreement. Engelhardt also fined Durst $5,000 and said that his sentence, once served, would be followed by three years of supervised release. Durst still faces a separate murder charge in California. (AP)
Organizers of the Venice Film Festival say Oscar-winning British director Sam Mendes will head the jury that will choose the winners in this year’s competition. In announcing his appointment Wednesday, organizers said the director has “established himself as one of the most highly respected film directors of recent years.” Mendes’ directorial debut, “American Beauty,” won five Oscars, including best director and best picture. The Venice Film Festival, the world’s oldest, is holding its 73rd edition this year from Aug. 31 to Sept. 10, when the jury will select the winner of the coveted Golden Lion for best film. (AP)

Movies that simply mention Tibet and Tibetans aren’t necessarily displeasing to Beijing, although those that criticize its rule over the Himalayan region most definitely are. China says Tibet has been part of its territory for more than seven centuries, although many Tibetans say the region was effectively independent for most of that time. Cargill also said the comic book character of the Ancient One was “a racist stereotype,” saying it would have been a loss either way. “Doctor Strange” is due out late this year in the U.S. Whether the film will be accepted for release in China isn’t yet known.

Cargill said in a podcast interview with doubletoasted.com. There was, Cargill said, a risk of “the Chinese government going, ‘Hey, you know one of the biggest film-watching countries in the world? We’re not going to show your movie because you decided to get political.’ ” Hollywood producers are increasingly attempting to woo the Chinese audience and government with China-friendly storylines and Chinese actors. Only a limited number of Hollywood films are allowed into China each year and those dealing with political or social topics frowned upon by the ruling Communist Party are doomed to miss the cut.

FILM A Tibetan male character from the “Doctor Strange” comic books presented such a political minefield to Marvel that in the film version the studio cast a Caucasian woman in the role, reflecting the pressures Hollywood moviemakers perceive when trying to appeal to the Chinese market. One of the film’s screenwriters has suggested that the casting of British actress Tilda Swinton as the sorcerer the Ancient One was partly done to avoid potentially offending China’s government and moviegoers, who now represent the world’s second-largest annual box office after North America. Although some online commentators criticized the casting of a white woman rather than a Tibetan actor, the film’s backers apparently didn’t want to risk losing out on Chinese distribution by introducing the highly politically charged subject of Tibet. While the Ancient One was written in the comic book as Tibetan, “if you acknowledge that Tibet is a place and that he’s Tibetan, you risk alienating 1 billion people,” screenwriter C. Robert

blog log “The #womancard works just like the $1 #mancard, but it’s a bargain at 78 cents.”
Evening
@CRUTNACKER uses the hashtag #womancard to draw attention to
the disadvantages women face, such as earning only 78 cents for every dollar earned by men. The hashtag began trending on Twitter Wednesday after Donald Trump, in a victory speech after Tuesday’s primaries, accused Hillary Clinton of using her gender to attract votes: “The only thing she’s got going is the woman’s card.” Clinton countered, “If fighting for women’s health care and paid family leave and equal pay is playing the woman card, then deal me in!”

“#compareyourselftoacheesecake2016 is what the Internet was made for — down w body shaming and up w baked goods!” @HARTO, on the flood of social media posts of selfies next to cheesecakes that match people’s outfits, an inspired response to a Twitter bully who mocked a teen in her cream and red prom dress.
“ ‘You just got indicted. What are you going to do next?’ ... ‘I’m going to a Justin Bieber show!’ ” @PROFOOTBALLTALK, on Johnny
Manziel’s trip to Cleveland Tuesday night for a show by his bud Bieber, the same day the former Browns QB was indicted for misdemeanor assault. A photo of the pair with two friends at the concert surfaced on Instagram — before being deleted.
“Ted Cruz, in Indiana, just called the hoop a ‘basketball ring.’ That’ll cost him 5 pts right there.” @DEVILSTOWER, on the GOP candidate’s faux pas during his recreation of a famous “Hoosiers” scene Tuesday, the day of Indiana’s primary. Cruz measured the height of the hoop and said, to much social media mockery, “That basketball ring here in Indiana is the same height as it is in New York City and every other place in this country.”

“Islamophobia hurts people who aren’t Muslim, too.” GERMAN LOPEZ, at vox.com, lauds a segment that aired Monday night on “The Daily Show” looking at the prejudice and discrimination many Sikhs in the U.S. have experienced because people mistakenly think they are Muslim due to their turbans. The show’s Hasan Minhaj interviewed actor Waris Ahluwalia, left, and other Sikh Americans.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) It doesn’t take much to make a friend or companion feel good. The littlest thing can last a long while. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You’re more eager to get started than almost anyone else on your team, but you need them behind you to make the most of an opportunity. CANCER (June 21-July 22) You are likely the creator of your own nightmarish situation, so why not go back to the drawing board? LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You can do much for someone who is in no position to do things without help. Such generosity will be rewarded, surely. WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You want
someone close to you to understand what you are going through, but take care: Some things are best left unshared just now.
WEDNESDAY’S SOLUTION
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) How you arrange things on the homefront will make a big difference as you try to do more in the time available. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Now is not the time to insist that everything be done a certain way. Indeed, a little experimentation can go quite far. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Your reasoning may be faulty, which explains why you cannot yet grasp a situation that has taken control of you.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) There are several aspects of a current project that require some attention. Where you start can make all the difference.
TODAY: Low pressure moving along the nearby front will bring a greater possibility of showers (60 to 70 percent chance), but they should be scattered, so it won’t rain everywhere all day. Cloudy skies will persist, which along with light winds from the east should help limit highs to around 60 degrees.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You must procrastinate no longer. Today is the day for you to dive into a certain project to be sure that you can finish it on time. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You’re eager to see what a friend is up to, but you must first complete an assignment that you have waited too long to begin.

Sorry to those hoping for a holiday album
The only vows we’d be happy to sit through Comedians Jordan Peele and Chelsea Peretti are married. Peele revealed the news on “Late Night with Seth Meyers” on Tuesday during a quiz game with his comedy partner Keegan Michael-Key. Peretti later confirmed the news with an Instagram photo of her dog next to a bouquet of flowers and a wedding band. “Eloped a bit ago,” she wrote. “Our only witness was this little guy.”
Lady Gaga and Elton John are teaming up for their own clothing line. According to Women’s Wear Daily, their limited-edition Love Bravery line will be available at Macy’s stores and online from May 9 through August 20. Gaga and John told WWD that the line, which includes T-shirts, crop tops, sweatshirts and tech gadgets, is meant to “inspire compassion and combat prejudice.” Gaga’s Born This Way foundation and the Elton John AIDS Foundation will each receive 25 percent of the profits from the line. The items are said to include “statement prints and colors,” as well as pieces from designer Brandon Maxwell. (EXPRESS)
‘Scandal’ actor Short fails drug test on probation
What’s worse, she asked for a smiley face tattoo
Court records show that “Scandal’s” Columbus Short has tested positive for cocaine and marijuana use and is facing a probation violation in a felony assault case. Short pleaded no contest to felony assault in September after he punched a man in March 2014. The actor has been ordered to appear at a hearing May 9 to address the tests. (AP)
Miley Cyrus shared a photo of her new tattoo Monday on Instagram, informing all her followers it was “#lilbbJupiter.” Her ink, however, bears the distinctive ring of Saturn.
