Va. history on shaky ground VIRGINIA The cemetery was historic but suffered from neglect. Tombstones had fallen. Vandals had destroyed markers. Weeds ran wild. Edwina St. Rose was saddened by what she saw happening to the Daughters of Zion Cemetery in Charlottesville. She has relatives buried there, and it hurt to see their final resting place falling apart. So for the past few years, the Charlottesville native and a few of her friends have spent their free time trying to restore the African-American cemetery, which was founded in 1873. The city of Charlottesville contributed $80,000 to help with the refurbishing. And now St. Rose and her friends are getting some extra attention for their effort. Preservation Virginia, a nonprofit group formed in 1889 to protect the state’s historic landmarks and heritage, announced Tuesday that AfricanAmerican cemeteries across Virginia, a schoolhouse built for the children of freed slaves and the General Assembly’s office

building complex in Richmond are among the commonwealth’s most endangered historic places. Also on the list — which the organization releases each year to highlight sites that it believes are threatened by neglect, development or misuse — are a former slave dwelling, and natural and historic resources endangered by utility infrastructure projects. The Daughters of Zion Cemetery is typical of many AfricanAmerican burial grounds across the state. Upkeep is expensive,

and maintenance of the properties fell off as churches closed. St. Rose says about 300 people are buried at the cemetery, but only about 150 markers remain. Her group, the Preservers of the Daughters of Zion Cemetery, has been working with landscape architects to restore the property. “It’s very rewarding to do this,” St. Rose says. “It’s very satisfying to know that I’m part of a project that’s going to help tell the story of African-American history. And I hope that we can get more help to do that.” Preservation Virginia is also taking aim at statewide utility infrastructure proposals, such as the Mountain Valley and Atlantic Coast pipelines and the building of electrical transmission line towers across the Rappahannock and James rivers. The projects, the group says, should avoid locations eligible for historic listing. It also warned against building in areas where doing so could harm the historic integrity of a community and negatively affect tourism. “The potential cumulative negative effects on Virginia’s heritage tourism industry are substantial and unprecedented,” the group said in a statement.

Affidavit: Hijacker of bus was on PCP D.C. man is charged with murder in death of pedestrian in NE
SAFETY
Free cab rides available on Cinco de Mayo
MICHAEL ROBINSON CHAVEZ (THE WASHINGTON POST)
THE DISTRICT A man accused of hijacking a Metrobus and then striking and killing a pedestrian as he drove had smoked synthetic marijuana and PCP before the incident, court documents released Wednesday said. Keith Loving of Washington made his first appearance in court Wednesday and was ordered held without bond. Loving, 30, is charged with seconddegree murder. A court document says Loving got on the bus Tuesday around 10:30 a.m. in Northeast Washington and about a minute later lunged at the bus driver with a pair of needle-nosed pliers. The court document says the bus driver was able to take the pliers away but was pushed off the bus by Loving. The document says all four passengers fled the bus before Loving drove off. Loving drove erratically, striking another bus that was transporting senior citizens and driving into oncoming traffic, the court document says. He then pulled into a gas station, driving the bus between two gas pumps, where he stopped. Then, in an apparent effort to leave the gas station, he pulled forward, hitting

a man who was putting trash in a dumpster, the document says. The man who was struck, identified as 40-year-old Anthony C. Payne of Washington, later died. He was pinned under the front of the bus and both of his legs were crushed, causing him to lose a “massive amount of blood,” the document said. Loving stayed in the driver’s seat of the bus for more than 10 minutes until police arrived; he then refused to respond to verbal commands and resisted officers, who had to use pepper spray to subdue him, the document said. He was taken to a hospital, where a police officer overheard him tell the hospital staff that he had smoked PCP and K-2, synthetic marijuana, before the incident.
“The suspect appeared to be very violent and resistant,” D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier said Tuesday. “It’s a bizarre incident.” During Loving’s court appearance Wednesday, prosecutor Edward O’Connell said Loving’s attack on the bus driver was “unprovoked” and called his behavior “insane.” Loving’s attorney, David Maxted, called Payne’s death “an accident.” Loving himself spoke out in court several times even after he was warned by a judge not to. When he was ordered held without bond he said: “I can’t go home?” He is scheduled to return to court on May 26 for a preliminary hearing. JESSICA GRESKO (AP)/ THE WASHINGTON POST

The Supreme Court of Virginia has ruled that a person doesn’t need to pay alimony to a former spouse if the payee is in a new relationship with a member of the same sex. The decision clarifies a section of Virginia’s divorce law that states that alimony payments can be cut off if the payee remarries or has been cohabiting with another person for at least a year. The case stemmed from the 2008 divorce of Michael Luttrell and Samantha Cucco. Luttrell had agreed to pay alimony to Cucco for eight years, but sought to end payments in 2014 because Cucco was engaged to a new partner. (AP) FAIRFAX COUNTY

Hogan reports receiving $7K in gifts MARYLAND Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan has received more than $7,000 worth of gifts since he took office in January 2015, mostly modest trinkets and items from wellwishers after the governor made his cancer diagnosis public. The gifts range from a $1 Livestrong bracelet to a $500 membership at Baltimore’s posh members-only Center Club, according to a filing with the State Ethics Commission. Hogan even reported two rosaries blessed at the Vatican, given to him and his wife by Pope Francis in
Washington, and an autographed guitar from Tim McGraw. The disclosure also shows the outpouring of support for the governor after he announced in June that he had late Stage 3 non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. In addition to receiving thousands of letters, the governor reported receiving prayer shawls, a “miracle tie,” a handmade chemotherapy hat and at least a dozen books about dealing with cancer (some hawking questionable cures). Hogan’s cancer is in remission, and doctors are monitoring his condition.

VIRGINIA With the departure of Ted Cruz and John Kasich from the presidential race, many national Republican loyalists lamented the future of a party that could field a nominee as polarizing as Donald Trump. But the news was particularly jarring for Virginia Republicans fresh off two days of party warfare at a state convention where
Cruz came out on top. “All the divisiveness last weekend for nothing,” said Brian Schoeneman, a former member of the Fairfax County Electoral Board who backed Kasich. “We are the kings of self-inflicted wounds that get us nothing.” A Republican who identifies with the conservative wing of the state GOP said: “I feel like I got smacked by a 2x4.” Officially, the state party apparatus must quickly pivot to Trump. “The RPV will support the nominee 100 percent,” John Whitbeck, chairman of the Republican
Party of Virginia, said Tuesday. At the state convention, Corey Stewart, Trump’s Virginia campaign chairman, publicly derided the party as “rotten and corrupt” after he was left off the delegates slate. But Tuesday night his message was all about unity. “Now is the time for Virginians to come together and stand behind Donald Trump as the Republican nominee for president,” Stewart said in a statement. “Virginia is an essential state this November and all of us need to band together to defeat Hillary Clinton.” JENNA PORTNOY (THE WASHINGTON POST)

nation+world Medical mistakes claim 251,000 lives each year in U.S., new study says HEALTH A new study from Johns Hopkins researchers, published in The BMJ on Tuesday, shows that “medical errors” in hospitals and other health care facilities are incredibly common and may now be the third-leading cause of death in the United States — claiming 251,000 lives every year, more than respiratory disease, accidents, stroke and Alzheimer’s. Martin Makary, a professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine who led the research, said that the category includes everything
from bad doctors to communication breakdowns when patients are handed off to another department. “It boils down to people dying from the care that they receive rather than the disease for which they are seeking care,” he said. In 1999, an Institute of Medicine report estimated deaths due to medical errors as high as 98,000 a year, shocking the medical establishment. Makary’s research involves a more comprehensive analysis of four large studies. The new calculation equates to nearly 700 deaths a day — about 9.5 percent of all deaths annually in the U.S. Though all providers extol patient safety and highlight various safety committees and

U.S. declares Aleppo cease-fire for 48 hours Sporadic violence persisted in Aleppo on Wednesday as U.S. officials announced that an agreement had been reached with Russia to extend Syria’s cease-fire to the contested northern city.

The partial truce, which took effect at 12:01 a.m. Wednesday Damascus time, would bring relief to residents on both sides of Syria’s largest city after two weeks of violence that has killed nearly 300 people, destroyed hospitals and brought it to the brink of humanitarian disaster. (AP)
and Prevention doesn’t require reporting of errors in the data it collects through billing codes. The CDC should update its requirements so that physicians must report whether there was any error that led to a preventable death, Makary said. He noted that the aviation community handles errors very differently. Every pilot in the world has the chance to learn from investigations and results are disseminated widely. “When a plane crashes, we don’t say this is confidential proprietary information the airline company owns,” Makary said. “We consider this part of public safety. Hospitals should be held to the same standards.” ARIANA

In Michigan, president vows to ensure every drop of water is safe FLINT, MICH. Sipping filtered city water to show it’s again drinkable, President Barack Obama vowed Wednesday to push on leaders at all levels of government until every drop of water flowing into homes in Flint is safe to use. He promised residents that the aging pipes that contaminated the water with lead will be replaced, but cautioned it will take time. “It’s not going to happen overnight, but we have to get it started,” Obama told hundreds of people gathered at a high school. Obama spoke after he was briefed on the federal response to the water contamination and had met privately with nine residents. Obama said he understands why people are scared and angry and feel let down. He said what happened in Flint was a manmade disaster that didn’t have to happen. But now, he said, everyone must work together to fix it. “I’ve got your back,” Obama said. “I will not rest and I will make sure the leaders at every level of government don’t rest until every drop of water that flows to your homes is safe to drink, to cook with, to bathe in.” He called providing safe drinking water a basic responsibility

Despite complaints from residents about the taste and health problems, city leaders insisted the water was safe. However, doctors reported last September that the blood of Flint children contained high levels of lead. The source of the city’s water has been switched back to Detroit, but the lead problem is not fully solved. Most people are drinking filtered or bottled water. The political and legal fallout is ongoing, and an inspector general is investigating the EPA’s response. KEVIN FREKING (AP)

A drug deal: Legalizing pot slashes prices Two years ago, Washington state began an unprecedented policy experiment by allowing the large-scale production and sale of recreational marijuana to the public. One impact has already become abundantly clear: Legalized marijuana is getting very cheap very quickly. Marijuana price data from Washington’s Liquor and Cannabis Board was aggregated by Steve Davenport of the Pardee RAND Graduate School and Jonathan Caulkins, a professor at Carnegie Mellon University. After a transitory rise in the first few months, both retail and wholesale prices have plummeted. Davenport said prices “are now steadily falling at about 2 percent per month. If that trend holds, prices may fall 25 percent each year going forward.” Drug policy analysts have long predicted this effect. As noted by Caulkins and his colleagues in the book “Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs to Know,” prohibition imposes many costs on drug producers. They must operate covertly, forgo advertising and pay higher wages to compensate for the risk of arrest. Lower prices mean less tax revenue from each sale. But bargain-basement prices undercut the black market, bringing the public reduced law enforcement costs — including tax dollars spent on jail. KEITH HUMPHREYS

nation+world MILITARY A Navy SEAL killed during a firefight in Iraq was part of a quick reaction force that moved in to rescue U.S. military advisers from an Islamic State attack, the Pentagon said Wednesday. The attack triggered a massive coalition air response that destroyed equipment, buildings and killed up to 60 militants. Navy Petty Officer 1st Class Charles Keating was shot and killed when he and other special operations forces went to the rescue of the U.S. forces that got caught in a gunbattle involving
more than 100 ISIS fighters, Army Col. Steve Warren said. The small team of American advisers went to Teleskof to meet with Kurdish peshmerga forces. Warren said ISIS fighters launched a large, complex attack on the peshmerga with armored Humvees and bulldozers, and broke through the front lines. It was, he said, one of the largest attacks that ISIS has launched in recent months, and it came in the wake of several recent defeats of the militants in the region. Keating, 31, is the third U.S.

Ready to switch sides? Republicans who can’t stomach Trump consider the prospect of supporting Clinton
N.C.’s LGBT law violates civil rights, feds say
MARK WILSON (GETTY IMAGES)
POLITICS With Donald Trump’s remaining rivals bowing out of the race, clearing his path to the nomination, Hillary Clinton is looking for ways to woo Republicans turned off by the brash billionaire. The Democratic front-runner’s campaign believes Trump’s historically high unfavorable ratings and penchant for controversy may be enough to persuade a slice of GOP voters to get behind her bid, in much the same way so-called Reagan Democrats sided with the Republican president in the 1980s. As Trump stood alone on Wednesday after Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Ohio Gov. John Kasich ended their bids, there were some early signs that a sliver of the party might see Clinton as the only option. “I’m with her,” tweeted Mark Salter, a top campaign aide to 2008 Republican nominee John McCain. Democrats caution their effort to win over Clinton Republicans — or Hilla-cans — is in its earliest stages, but could grow to include ads and other outreach targeted in particular at suburban women in battleground states. Already, aides say, a number of Republicans have privately told Clinton and her team they plan to break party ranks and support her. “Let’s get on the American team,” Clinton said, making an explicit appeal to independents and Republicans, in an interview with CNN on Wednesday. Hoping to hasten any move to her side, her campaign on Wednesday released a list of Republicans vowing never to vote for Trump along with a web

ad featuring clips of prominent GOPers, including his former rivals, bashing the New York billionaire in every possible way. “He needs therapy,” says former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, at the end of the spot. While such bipartisan support would expand Clinton’s base of potential voters, a series of highprofile endorsements from Republican officials could dampen enthusiasm among some in her own party. For months, primary rival Bernie Sanders has criticized Clinton’s record from the left, highlighting her 2002 vote in favor of the war in Iraq and support from Wall Street. The Vermont senator won the Indiana primary Tuesday, demonstrating her lingering weaknesses within her own party. Trump’s campaign has also made a conscious effort to target independents and Democrats in the primary. He’s said he expects to win a portion of Sanders’
Kasich ends his bid Ohio Gov. John Kasich, who won only his home-state GOP primary, bowed out of the presidential race Wednesday with a reflective speech in Columbus. “Throughout this campaign, I said the Lord may have another purpose for me,” Kasich said. “As I suspend my campaign today, I have renewed faith, deeper faith, that the Lord will show me the way forward and purpose for my life.” The departure fully clears the field for front-runner Donald Trump to become the Republican nominee after Sen. Ted Cruz ended his bid Tuesday night. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Democrats that wanted to vote for Donald Trump.” Clinton has begun casting her candidacy as an effort to unify a divided country. After a series of victories last week, which all but ensured she will capture her party’s nomination, Clinton called on Democrats, independents and what she called “thoughtful Republicans” to back her bid. But even though a vocal segment of the Republican Party has denounced Trump, so far few have been willing to go as far as saying they would back Clinton in the fall. Ben Howe, a Republican strategist who has worked for Cruz, said he’d be actively working against Trump — a decision he recognizes means backing Clinton. “Anything right now that would allow Donald Trump to become president is the wrong move, so the de facto result is that Hillary would win,” he said.

RALEIGH, N.C. A North Carolina law limiting protections to LGBT people violates federal civil rights protections and can’t be enforced, the U.S. Justice Department said Wednesday, putting the state on notice that it is in danger of being sued and losing hundreds of millions of dollars in federal funding. The law, which also requires transgender people to use public bathrooms that conform to the sex on their birth certificate, has been condemned by advocates, businesses and entertainers. In a letter to Gov. Pat McCrory, the Justice Department said the state law violates federal Civil Rights Act protections barring workplace discrimination based on sex, and that provisions of the law directed at transgender state employees violate antidiscrimination protections. The Justice Department also notified the 17-campus University of North Carolina system that the state law violates Title IX of the Civil Rights Act, which bars discrimination in education based on sex, which could lead to the state losing hundreds of millions of dollars in school funding. The letter seeks confirmation that “the State will not comply with or implement [the law], and that it has notified employees of the State and public agencies that, consistent with federal law, they are permitted to access bathrooms and other facilities consistent with their gender identity.” EMERY P.

Nationals’ hitters don’t waste time
NATIONALS 13, ROYALS 2 Wednesday’s Nationals game in Kansas City was essentially decided before the home team came to bat. Washington scored five runs by the time Royals starter Kris Medlen recorded the game’s first out, on his 38th pitch. The Nationals scored 10 runs by the third inning and every starter drove in a run except Michael A. Taylor. Bryce Harper was pulled in the fifth inning after a home run. Daniel Murphy had four hits by the sixth. The Nationals’ inconsistent offense put forth its biggest performance of the season in the 13-2 throttling of the defending World Series champions. The victory capped a series win for the Nationals (19-8) ahead of the highly anticipated
four-game series at Wrigley Field that begins today against the Chicago Cubs (20-6). The Nationals handed Stephen Strasburg a 6-0 lead before he even took the mound. He didn’t waste it, giving the Nationals six strong innings, allowing five hits and two runs while striking out seven and improving to 5-0. “It might sound strange but it made it a little more difficult,” Strasburg said of the big lead. “You have to trick your mind into thinking it’s a 0-0 game.” The Royals’ normally stout defense was oddly off against the Nationals this series, doing their pitching staff no favors. But still, most of what Kansas City pitchers threw over the plate was struck hard Wednesday, as Washington totaled 16 hits. The Royals’ infield butchered the first two plays of the game. Harper snapped a 1-for-23 skid with a bloop single in the first inning that started the scoring. Then the dam burst. Ryan Zimmerman, Murphy and Jayson

The field was set Wednesday for the Kentucky Derby on Saturday. NBC coverage starts at 4 p.m. with post time at 6:34 p.m. Here is a rundown of three early favorites.
Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy went 4-for-5 with three RBIs in Wednesday’s 13-2 win over the Royals to raise his batting average to .398.

Werth all doubled. With Wednesday’s opening outburst, the Nationals have a major league-best 38 first-inning runs. As a sign of its inconsistency, it’s notable that the Nationals
have scored one second-inning run all season. Nevertheless, the offense was relentless in the series finale, following up their big first inning with four in the third and scoring in five of the first six innings. The Nationals were coming off a painful, 7-6 defeat Tuesday night. In that one, Jonathan Papelbon blew his second save of the season, giving up a 6-4 lead in the ninth inning. The Royals scored three runs off five singles in the ninth inning, the second time in Papelbon’s career that he allowed at least five hits in an outing. (THE WASHINGTON POST/AP)

Beware of the meat in Mexico, China
The NFL is warning players that eating meat produced in Mexico or China could trigger a positive result for performance-enhancing drugs. Clenbuterol, an anabolic substance banned by the NFL, is sometimes used to promote animal growth in other nations. The Texans’ Duane Brown tested positive last fall after eating 10 burgers and two steaks on a bye-week trip to Mexico. He showed his meal receipts and the NFL absolved him. (EXPRESS)

Ex-player gets $712,000 in suit over brain injury
Manziel booked in Dallas; he is due in court today
Bowling Green State University of Ohio will pay $712,000 to a former player who said the team’s coaches and medical staff didn’t pull him from practice right away after he suffered multiple concussions that led to a permanent brain injury. Former offensive lineman Cody Silk accused the football staff in a lawsuit of failing to address his concussions even though he reported being wobbly and confused during training. Silk said he had three concussions in fall 2010 before he was permanently pulled from practice. The team was coached by Dave Clawson, now head coach at Wake Forest. (AP)
Johnny Manziel on Wednesday was booked and posted bond in Dallas in a domestic violence case. The former Cleveland Browns quarterback faces his first court hearing today. Manziel’s attorney, Robert Hinton, said Manziel, 23, presented himself for booking and a mug shot. The Heisman Trophy winner was indicted by a grand jury last month after his former girlfriend alleged he hit her and threatened to kill her during a night out in January. Manziel faces a Class A misdemeanor that carries up to a year in jail and a $4,000 fine. He is expected to appear briefly in court today. (AP)
Chris Bosh’s season is now officially over, regardless of how long the Heat play this postseason. The Heat and Bosh made the announcement Wednesday in Toronto, where their second-round series resumes tonight. The news ended speculation that he would try to return during the playoffs. Bosh, 32, has not played since the All-Star break because of a blood clot in his left leg. It’s the second consecutive year that his season ended at the break because of a clot. Neither side revealed whether he has had other clots or remains on blood thinners. Bosh has three years and $77 million left on his contract. His wife recently had been tweeting with a #BringBoshBack hashtag, and he reportedly was seeking medical clearance to play. (AP)

Tressed to kill — or at least injure In “Captain America: Civil War,” out Friday, Steve Rogers and Tony Stark have problems, and those problems lead to punching. They could be arguing about any number of things, but one thing is certain: In movies, blonds and brunets often have to battle it out. ALL THE HARRY POTTERS: Draco and Lucius Malfoy aren’t so much blond as seriously-guys-where-isyour-melanin. They take out their rage on poor, dark-haired Harry, possibly because they’re mad they can’t walk by a pool without the chlorine turning their hair green. ‘CRUEL INTENTIONS’: In this 1999 update of “Dangerous Liaisons,” a dark-haired Sarah Michelle Gellar aims to take down towheaded Reese Witherspoon by spreading rumors about the bottle-ness of the latter’s locks.
‘ROCKY IV’: The Italian Stallion takes on Drago in this movie that
indies +arties
proves blonds may not have more fun, but they certainly can pack a punch. Make that a lot of punches. Like, a LOT. ‘THE KARATE KID’: When trying to spot an ’80s teen-movie villain, look for two things: the popped collar and the golden locks. Here, bad guy Johnny has them both AND a lot of money, so you KNOW he’s evil. ‘TANGLED’: Flaxen-haired Rapunzel enacts revenge against the ravenlocked Mother Gothel for the simple sin of tough parenting. Like none of us have ever wanted to lock our kids in a tower. They wouldn’t even mind as long as there was Wi-Fi.
‘Paris Belongs to Us’ National Gallery of Art, Sixth Street and Constitution Avenue NW; Sat., 2:30 p.m., free.
Sometimes you’ve just gotta go hard-core indie — and sometimes it’s free! The National Gallery has a wonderful habit of using its extensive archives to showcase little-known and/or rarely seen films and filmmakers. This week it’s screening “Paris Belongs to Us,” directed by Jacques Rivette. The 1961 film (featuring Louison Roblin, right) is a great introduction to the French New Wave because it embodies the playfulness and improvisational shooting style that defines the movement; plus, it’s handy to say “Oh, I think ‘Paris Belongs to Us’ is a great introduction to the French New Wave” at your next intimidating dinner party.

5 festive Mexican spots
UPCOMING PERFORMANCES
EMPIRE STRIKES
Cinco de Mayo is the perfect time for Tim Carman, The Washington Post’s $20 Diner, to reveal his five favorite places to dine like a Mexican. On any given day, any one of these five may outperform another, save perhaps for the reigning No. 1, which has lapped the competition. (Note: Carman purposely left out high-end restaurants such as Oyamel and Espita Mezcaleria.)

7862 Richmond Hwy., Alexandria
85 N. Glebe Road, Arlington
8562 Mathis Ave., Manassas, Va.
Owners Alejandro and Fidel Gallegos are the sons of chef Fidel GallegosPerez, who’s the guiding light behind this strip-mall restaurant. The family hails from Jalisco and, as such, their place specializes in the food native to the state in western Mexico. Don’t miss the torta ahogada, in which fresh bolillo bread is stuffed with carnitas and dunked into salsa hot enough to smelt ore, or the tacos al vapor, in which offal meat, salsa and garnishes are steamed right inside the tortilla.
The focal point here is the “trompo,” or spinning top, of marinated pork slowly cooking in its own fat and juices. The al pastor pork, spiced and a little smoky and sweet, can be stuffed into a taco, sprinkled over a huarache or jammed into the crispiest gordita shell you’ve ever had the pleasure of devouring. The meat can even be packed into this beast called a “super taco,” a mountainous pile of ingredients that cannot be eaten by hand, no matter how hard you try.
This secretive little taqueria has mastered the art of masa-based shells, wrappers and flatbreads. If it were run by a Culinary Institute of America-trained chef, Tres Reyes would cordon off a section of its menu and call it A Study in Masa. The tortillas, huaraches, sopes and gorditas are made inhouse, and they all have a personality distinctly their own. Try the pizzalike take on huaraches, with a thin layer of fried masa topped with any number of goodand-gloppy ingredients.
El Sol’s seviche is not afraid to deliver a little heat.

Taqueria Habanero
3710 14th St. NW
Though countless taco joints have set down roots in the District in recent years, Taqueria Habanero stood apart from the pack when it opened in September 2014. Chef and owner Dio Montero, a native of Puebla, prepares almost everything on the premises, including a soothing, tomatillo-avocado salsa and a ruthless, takeno-prisoners habanero condiment. The tacos are exceptional, as is the huarache, a crispy oval of masa stuffed with refried black beans and meat.

El Sol combines the technical obsessiveness of a chef-driven restaurant with the unadorned charms of a family-run taqueria. The menu is deep and wide, and it compromises on nothing. Solis, along with sister and chef Jessica Solis, has developed dishes that use new methods to make the flavors of Mexico come alive. TIM CARMAN

Flying Dog’s Numero Uno Summer Cerveza is a Mexican-style beer that would make a great addition to your Cinco de Mayo party. A word before you go out to buy more limes: The zest of lime peels is added after fermentation to impart a citrusy punch. The beer, introduced last year by the Frederick, Md.-based brewer, is a standard corn-based adjunct lager, brewed with agave to add a sweet, honeylike note and a bit of funk. There’s also an unusual stickiness to the finish. FRITZ HAHN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

weekendpass MUSIC Singer Corey Glover didn’t have to do too much homework to prepare for his upcoming tour celebrating soul singer Bill Withers’ 1973 album “Live at Carnegie Hall.” “It was the soundtrack to my life,” says Glover, 51. “My parents, whenever there was a road trip, that was the music that was playing.” Glover, left, will pay tribute to Withers during a seven-show run with a newly assembled band, The New Stew. Led by drummer Jared Stone, The New Stew is an ever-evolving project that will recreate iconic albums and recordings in a live setting. The band
also includes lap- and pedal-steel guitarist Roosevelt Collier (The Lee Boys), percussionist Yonrico Scott (Derek Trucks Band), guitarist Dave Yoke (Susan Tedeschi Band) and pianist Matt Slocum (Aquarium Rescue Unit). For this first run of dates, The New Stew will re-create “Live at Carnegie Hall” — which includes such classics as “Use Me,” “Ain’t No Sunshine” and “Lean on Me” — in sequence. (Withers, 77, left the music business in the ’80s and hasn’t performed a concert since). “I think it’s a seminal album,” Glover says. “I think it has a lot of weight to it. Who doesn’t know ‘Use Me’ and can’t sing along with it? But [do you] understand how heavy that song is and how intricate that song is to play as well as emote?” Glover, the lead singer of hard
TASTE OF 8TH
rock band Living Colour, has covered Withers in the past (“He informs how I do what I do,” he says) but not with this group. Until this week, The New Stew hadn’t even played together as a unit, Glover says. That spontaneity is part of what excites him. “This is a jam band experience so you never know who may show up and what may occur in the midst of doing this,” says Glover, who has jammed with Collier in the past. For Glover, the toughest part isn’t channeling Withers’ voice — he hopes to make the songs his own — but trying to recapture the magic of the live recording. “Carnegie Hall is not Madison Square Garden but it’s not some coffeehouse in Greenwich Village,” Glover says. “Yet it’s just as intimate and

Open to discussion ‘Disgraced’ offers no solutions to problems Muslims face in the U.S. STAGE With 18 productions across the country, “Disgraced” is the most produced play in the U.S. this theater season. Ayad Akhtar’s drama, which won a Pulitzer Prize in 2013, offers a compelling narrative that plumbs the depths of America’s complicated feelings about Muslims and Islam. “[The play] just keeps getting more relevant with daily headlines,” says Timothy Douglas, who is directing the D.C. premiere of “Disgraced” at Arena Stage, where it runs through May 29. “America at large doesn’t have an agreement about perceptions of Muslim culture and, more specifically, Muslims in America.” Set in 2011 and 2012, the story revolves around Amir (Arena Stage favorite Nehal Joshi), a 40-ish Pakistani-American who has all but erased his Muslim background to achieve professional success as a Manhattan corporate lawyer. He shares a sleek Upper East Side apartment with his white American wife, Emily (Ivy Vahanian), an artist who is fascinated by traditional Islamic art forms. After his nephew Abe (Samip Raval) seeks his legal help in the case of an imam who’s been imprisoned in the U.S., Amir finds himself in the public spotlight, with unforeseen consequences. At a dinner party Amir and Emily host for a Jewish art curator and his African-American attorney wife, everything suddenly starts to unravel. Some critics have taken issue with the play’s implications about Muslims, and Douglas himself describes “Disgraced” as “incendiary.” Yet he said he worked with the actors to emphasize the characters’ common humanity and to offer nuanced portrayals. “Because what they’re saying
Ayad Akhtar’s play ”Disgraced” grapples with the often touchy subject of American perceptions of Muslims.

causes such anxiety, the more I understand their motivations, [and] the more I really can see the human underneath the provocateur, then [the more] the audience has the opportunity to weigh for themselves the issues,” Douglas says. The tightly wrought one-act drama is the first of three plays Akhtar has written; another,
“The idea that you could sort of wrap it up in 90 minutes is absurd. … The play triggers discussion.” TIMOTHY DOUGLAS, director of
“Disgraced” at Arena Stage
“The Who and the What,” opens May 25 at Bethesda’s Round House Theatre. The PakistaniAmerican author, who also wrote the acclaimed 2012 novel “American Dervish,” will be Arena Stage’s resident playwright for the 2016-17 season. Ultimately, “Disgraced” doesn’t attempt to resolve the issues it raises, which some viewers may find deeply troubling. Douglas says this deliberate unsettling of the audience can open the way to reflection and dialogue. “I think [Akhtar] was wise enough to know that given how broad and passionate the response is to the subject matter, the idea that you could sort of wrap it up in 90 minutes is absurd. … The play triggers discussion,” Douglas says. “By no means is there a resolution at the end, and I think that’s by design.” VANESSA H.

In one experiment, wild crows used pebbles to make water rise so they could reach a floating container of food.
Wise up, humans: Animals are smart Intelligence isn’t as rare as we think, says a new book by Frans de Waal
humanity’s superiority, let’s use our big brains to see the world from the point of view of other species.
BOOKS Ever stare out into space and look for signs of intelligence? Well, we should be looking right here on Earth, primatologist Frans de Waal argues in his new book, “Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?” (He’ll discuss it at a Smithsonian Associates event Wednesday.) For centuries, scientists have been obsessed with finding the one big difference that separates humans from other de Waal animals — things like tool use, observational learning and the ability to plan ahead. Almost as soon as that line gets drawn in the sand, chimps, crows and octopuses step, fly and swim right over it. It’s time to stop this fruitless quest, de Waal argues: Instead of trying to prove
Why is animal intelligence research taking off now? I think we got tired of behaviorism, which was dominant last century. More and more phenomena are coming to the fore, of animals doing things that couldn’t be explained by simple instinct or by simple associative learning. And the younger generation is much more open to seeing what animals can do on their own terms. Why should scientists stop comparing animal intelligence to human intelligence? Why would you want to judge a bat or an octopus on human terms? They don’t live human lives. In their own contexts, animals do things that we could never match. There are birds that remember 10,000 locations for the seeds that they hide. An octopus can adopt the color of the environment. A bat can detect the location of
very small items in pitch-black darkness. We should stop asking who is better and start trying to explain how animals can do these amazing things. It seems like sometimes we set up intelligence tests that are rigged against animals. It’s not intentional, it’s just we don’t take into consideration the animal’s umwelt, or world view. For example, people thought that elephants were unable to recognize themselves in the mirror, [because of] a study where they had very small mirrors. But when someone thought to give elephants a mirror that is their size, and they can touch and smell behind it, suddenly they can pass the mirror test. When we compare apes to children, it looks to us like they are being tested in identical settings, but it’s not identical for the ape. The child is in a lab, interacting with members of his own species, getting instructions in a language he understands, maybe sitting on his mother’s
weekendpass lap. The ape doesn’t have any of these things, and so the child is at an enormous advantage. And even with these disadvantages, sometimes animals outperform us. Like when chimps beat humans on memory tests and in strategy games. And now it turns out that elephants have more neurons than us? That was a bit upsetting to people because some scientists had said the best criterion for intelligence, regardless of body size, regardless of overall brain size, was to just count the neurons. Humans were always assumed to be at the top of that list. Then the elephant turned out to have three times more neurons than we do, so now we are stuck with the elephant being at the top of that list. And that’s always the issue. People come up with these criteria for intelligence, for consciousness, that separate us from the other animals, and they don’t know what to do if particular animals surpass us in certain ways.
“Why would you want to judge a bat or an octopus on human terms? They don’t live human lives.” FRANS DE WAAL, author of “Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?”
If chimps are so smart, why haven’t they invented the iPhone, or at least one of those first-generation Nokias? The iPhone is the accumulation of maybe 5,000 years of scientific knowledge. That is our species’ specialty, the accumulation of knowledge through language, and it took a long time for us to get to this point. For a million years, our ancestors used the same hand axes. Only in the last 10,000 to 15,000 years have we had complex societies and made technological advances. In the

last two centuries, the pace has accelerated. But we didn’t start out like that. What are the implications of humanity’s dawning awareness that we are not the Earth’s only intelligent life form? Our relationship with animals is slowly changing. If you assume complex cognition and emotions in animals, you cannot treat them like garbage. Which is what people are doing in the agricultural industry, for example. It’s also going to affect our way of looking at ourselves. We are going to stop seeing ourselves as totally divorced from nature, as some sort of totally unique brainy primate. Psychology, biology, all these disciplines are going to have to start rethinking their premises. SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

Underground uprising EXHIBITS Just as party elites are debating whether the unwashed masses can be trusted to pick America’s presidential nominees, a small experiment in democracy is taking place beneath Dupont Circle. In an abandoned streetcar station, New York-based designers Josh de Sousa and Nancy Hou have given people the freedom to make whatever they please, with an art installation called “Raise/Raze.” The exhibit, which opened Saturday, is housed in a tunnel that closed in 1962, reopened briefly as a food court in the 1990s and has been abandoned since. In 2014, the group Dupont Underground got a five-year lease from the city to use the tunnel as an art space. It chose “Raise/Raze” from among several proposals because of its interactivity, according to board member Philippa Hughes. “This exhibit is all about people working together to build things,” she said at a preview Friday. The artists behind “Raise/ Raze” agree with her assessment. “Since this is D.C., we definitely saw [the exhibit] as a sort of democratic form of sculptural communication,” de Sousa said at the preview. “I just hope they don’t tear down all the ‘trees.’ ” By Sunday, the “trees,” graceful spires at the far end of the tunnel, still stood, but they were noticeably thinner. Visitors had apparently pilfered some of their parts — bricks made of the same 3-inch plastic balls that served as the “ocean” at the National Building Museum installation known as “The Beach” — and built a little village nearby. “So far, we’ve seen people build a lot of houses and chairs,” de Sousa said. Bucking the trend, David Whyman, 17, worked on a freestanding arch. Then he spied a family of three laying down a foundation for a fort.

People tend to use the “Raise/Raze” bricks to make chairs and buildings; at right, James Reid, left, David Whyman, center, and Aidan Reid build a fort.
“Hey, let’s work together,” Whyman called out. “I can make the doorway for your house.” If humanity’s tendency to cooperate was evident during the first weekend of “Raise/Raze,” it was even more conspicuous beforehand. In the runup to the opening, 1,400 volunteers toiled for 3,000 hours to make building blocks from the “Beach” balls. The most stalwart volunteers worked until 3 a.m. before opening night, but they fell short of their goal, using fewer than half of the donated balls. That’s perhaps why, as the walls of Whyman’s fort reached knee height, the builders began to run short of supplies. “Go find more three-by-fours,” said fellow fort builder James Reid, dispatching his 11-yearold twins to scour the hall for unused bricks. As the Whyman-Reid fort began to tower over neighboring structures, Whyman reflected on his team’s success. “It’s interesting how much more you can achieve when you work with other people,” he said.

the form of a little girl in red. She toddled, unseen, around the back of the fortress and began pulling bricks from the wall. Reid watched the destruction with equanimity. “It’s like making sandcastles at the beach,” Reid said. “You just have to take a picture and walk away.” SADIE DINGFELDER (EXPRESS)

from the D.C. Public Library’s U Street oral history archives or an interview conducted by artist Erik Moe for his Future Cartographic Society project. “[Moe] interviewed people about what they think the neighborhood is going to be like 100 or 200 years into the future, and then he boiled those down into narratives,” Rood says. Participants will also be able to “call” the future and past and leave a message. To go along with this year’s “Roll Your Funk” theme, a nod to D.C.’s 1970s skating craze, local performance and digital artist Holly Bass is presenting “Birth of a City,” a choreographed show with roller skaters that pays homage to the 1973 Home Rule Act.
Batala DC will once again set the pace in this year’s Funk Parade. The group will also perform at 5 p.m. outside the Frank D. Reeves Municipal Center.
Let the funk take over
Third annual Funk Parade adds art installations and an app to the daylong festivities MUSIC As D.C.’s Funk Parade enters its third year, the party just keeps getting bigger. Co-founder Justin Rood expects 70,000 people to attend the day-long street fair, music festival and parade, though he admits he has underestimated turnouts in the past. “The event kind of has a life of its own at this point,” Rood says. Along with co-founder Chris Naoum, he’s tasked with ensuring the parade has enough music and activities to entertain such crowds while also fulfilling its mission, “which is to have a good time but also bring people together to celebrate the things that we love about the city.” Here’s what to expect when the parade takes over U Street NW on Saturday.
Funk, funk and more funk Naoum’s excited that established bands such as Rare Essence, which is releasing its first studio album in more than a decade on Friday, will perform at the same event as younger acts such as Nag Champa (on stages spread throughout the U Street corridor). “We’ve got some brass bands that have been around the scene forever like the Spread Love Band and the Brass Connection, then you’ve got these young upand-coming brass bands like Crush Funk Brass and DuPont Brass,” Naoum says. Also on the daytime roster are singer-songwriters Aaron “Ab” Abernathy and Reesa Renee, Greek-American reggae-jazz
If you go … The Funk Parade takes over U Street on Saturday. Here’s a brief schedule of the events (nearly all of which are free). Funkparade.com has more details and a map. (EXPRESS) Noon-7 p.m.: A day fair in the U Street corridor featuring live music and vendors 4-5 p.m.: The Funk Parade down U Street, convening at the Howard Theatre and ending at Ben’s Chili Bowl 7-10 p.m.: A free music festival at such nontraditional venues as Solly’s, Provision No. 14 and The Fainting Goat 10 p.m.: After-parties at the Black Cat (there’s a $5 cover) and Tropicalia
artist Christos DC, funk group Joe Keyes and the Late Bloomer Band, R&B duo BOOMscat and more. In the evening, saxophonist Ron Holloway is performing at Solly’s; PitchBlak Brass Band is playing with the reggae-funksoul group Nappy Riddem at U Street Music Hall; and Grammynominated performer Carolyn Malachi is doing a Black Broadway performance at Mulebone.
Art happenings Among the art events taking place during the parade is “Oral History/Oral Futures,” a series of repurposed phone booths spread around the U Street area. When participants pick up a receiver, they can listen to a clip
An app for getting funky The main event isn’t meant to be watched from the sidelines. Marching bands, drum lines and other performers take part in the parade; attendees are invited to jump in and dance or play along. To engage participants who aren’t musically inclined, the Funk Parade team has created an app that turns iPhones into instruments. It was inspired by the final Boombox Walk hosted by brothers Hays and Ryan Holladay at the United States Botanic Garden in 2012. The electro-pop duo, known as Bluebrain, invited people to bring boomboxes, cue up their CDs, tapes or MP3 files and roam through the garden. Naoum described the result as “an ethereal soundscape.” For the Funk Parade, a team of designers at Deloitte Digital volunteered to create an app that could play eight different parts (written by local composer Alex Braden), each featuring a specific instrument. The Funk Parade: Boombox app syncs users’ phones via Bluetooth so that everything stays on beat. “It’s a way to interact with the parade and be your own little marching band,” Naoum says. “Everyone’s got the music, everyone’s got the script, and you can just do your thing and dance in the parade.” LAUREN MCEWEN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

(The single “L.E.S. Artistes” was designed to blare on dance floors and at warehouse parties alike.)

Prince’s reps sought addiction help MUSIC The day before Prince died, his representatives reached out to a California doctor who specializes in addiction treatment to arrange a meeting, a Minneapolis lawyer for the doctor said Wednesday. Attorney William Mauzy said Dr. Howard Kornfeld had never met or spoken to Prince before Prince’s representatives

contacted him on April 20 with the musician’s knowledge, saying Prince was “dealing with a grave medical emergency.” Mauzy said Kornfeld wasn’t able to travel immediately to Minnesota, so he arranged for his son Andrew, a practice consultant at his Recovery Without Walls facility in Mill Valley, Calif., to go instead. When he got to Prince’s Paisley Park complex on the morning of April 21, Andrew Kornfeld was one of three people to find Prince in an elevator, unresponsive. Kornfeld called 911, Mauzy said.

Mauzy also said the elder Kornfeld arranged for a Minnesota doctor to evaluate Prince as part of a plan to get Prince “stabilized in Minnesota and convince him to come to Recovery Without Walls.” The doctor had cleared his schedule for the following morning. But Prince was found unresponsive before the trip could happen, Mauzy said. Mauzy said Andrew Kornfeld was carrying a small amount of buprenorphine, which Howard Kornfeld says on his website is a treatment option for patients with

Obama illuminates our love for ‘Peanuts’ It’s not surprising at all that President Barack Obama, comedianin-chief, appreciates “Peanuts.” In a new archival edition of “The Complete Peanuts” that hits shelves next week, Obama provides the foreword. “I grew up with ‘Peanuts,’ ” Obama writes. “But I never outgrew it.” Creator Charles Schulz, Obama continues, “treated childhood with all the poignant and tender complexity it deserves.” Obama touches on the emotions that Schulz plumbed in his iconic strip: “Hope. Doubt. The exquisite pain of unrequited love. The self-exploration of what it means to be different.” (TWP)

There’s more enthusiasm for @realDonaldTrump among leaders of the KKK than leaders of the political party he now controls.” @ELIZABETHFORMA, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren on Twitter,
denouncing Donald Trump for running a presidential campaign built on “racism, sexism and xenophobia.” Warren wrote a series of scathing tweets Tuesday night after Trump won Indiana’s Republican primary, making him the presumptive GOP nominee. Warren finished by saying, “I’m going to fight my heart out to make sure [Trump’s] toxic stew of hatred & insecurity never reaches the White House.”

“ ‘Mr. Kasich — it’s time to drop out.’ ‘NO. WAIT UNTIL THE MORNING.’ ‘Why?’ ‘I gotta tweet this atrocious May 4 meme.’ ” @ZZZZAAAACCCCHHH on Ohio governor John Kasich’s tribute to
May 4, aka Star Wars Day (May the Fourth Be with You). Shortly before reports began swirling about Kasich dropping out of the GOP presidential race on Wednesday, he shared a “Stars Wars” tribute video painting him as the “only hope” to beat Hillary Clinton in the general election. The video features a backdrop of stars with receding text — a staple of the “Star Wars” movies — describing what the future would be like if Clinton were elected president.
“Leaving us surprises even now. So clever. So missed.” @MANMADEMOON on David Bowie’s final album, “Blackstar,” which was released just a week before his death. The album’s jacket features a cutout of a star with a black area behind it. A Reddit user discovered that when the record sleeve is left in sunlight for several hours, the black background changes to reveal a cluster of yellow stars.

“This is a cautionary tale about tanning and crying.” KELLY DIAMOND, at mashable.com,
sums up the story behind a viral photo of 17-year-old Skyler Davis, who got into an argument with her boyfriend a few minutes after getting a spray tan and cried, leaving streaks in her still-fresh application. Fortunately, Davis was able to wash off the ruined tan and get it redone before going to the prom with her boyfriend, with whom she apparently made up.
“Zoning out is one thing, but Draymond has a solid 20-second span where he doesn’t blink at all.” JAMES DATOR, at sbnation .com, on Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green’s bizarre press conference Tuesday night after the Warriors’ win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Green completely froze for at least 20 seconds, without even moving or blinking, as his teammate Festus Ezeli answered a question.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) You feel you desperately need something that is, in fact, not necessary at work or at play.
TODAY: The best chance of steadier showers may remain west and perhaps also south of the metro area. But some lighter showers are certainly possible, as is more of that familiar mist or drizzle. A chance of light showers continues through the evening, and steadier showers could develop overnight.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Your way with words will hold you in good stead. Others will be eager to hear what you have to say on a variety of topics. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You know how to do something in a way that mystifies those around you. It’s not a new method, but you make it uniquely your own.

Janet Jackson, 49, is pregnant, according to a source for Entertainment Tonight. Just last month, the singer gave a clue to her plans when she postponed her world tour, saying she was “planning [her] family.” Jackson said at the time that “there actually has been a sudden change,” and that she’d been ordered by a doctor to rest. She has neither confirmed nor denied ET’s report. This will be the first child for Jackson and her husband, businessman Wissam Al Mana, who have been married for three years. Jackson will turn 50 on May 16. (EXPRESS)
