Democrats Try to Rally Women Senate GOP blocks a bill expanding access to contraception
The chances of the Republicans gaining a Senate majority in the midterm elections, according to a new Election Lab forecast. (THE WASHINGTON POST )

National Women’s Law Center, left, and Planned Parenthood were at the Capitol on Wednesday to promote Democrats’ effort to ensure access to contraception.
cans are threatening to take control of the Senate. GOP senators said Wednesday’s vote was simply a stunt, political messaging designed to boost vulnerable Democratic incumbents. The GOP needs to gain six seats to seize control. “Democrats are just trying to
win an election,” Sen. Lamar Alexander, R-Tenn., said bluntly. But Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said the Republicans were the ones “out of touch with reality.” He promised that Democrats would continue to press the issue. Women have proven crucial in
electing President Barack Obama and members of his party. And Democrats desperately need a strong turnout as they defend 21 Senate seats to the GOP’s 15, many in Republican-leaning states. Democrats facing re-election insisted that the court ruling would force some women to pay out of pocket for contraceptives, or simply skip the purchase if the cost was too much. “When you charge women more for contraceptive coverage, then you are denying them access to that care,” said Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., who is in a competitive race. DONNA CASSATA (AP)

You’ve probably decided who gets the house or that family heirloom up in the attic when you die. But what about your email account and all those photos stored online? Grieving relatives might want access for sentimental reasons, or to settle financial issues. But do you want your mom reading your exchanges on an online dating profile or a spouse going through every email? The Uniform Law Commission, whose members are appointed by state governments to help standardize state laws, was on track Wednesday to endorse a plan that would give loved ones access to — but not control of — the deceased’s

digital accounts, unless specified otherwise in a will. To become law in a state, the legislation would have to be adopted by the legislature. “This is something most people don’t think of until they are faced with it. They have no idea what is about to be lost,” said Karen Williams of Beaverton, Ore., who sued
Facebook for access to her 22-yearold son Loren’s account after he died in a 2005 motorcycle accident. But privacy activists are skeptical of the proposal. Ginger McCall, associate director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center in Washington, said a judge’s approval should be needed for access, to protect the privacy of both the owners of accounts and the people who communicate with them. “The digital world is a different world” from offline, McCall said. “No one would keep 10 years of every communication they ever had with dozens or even hundreds of other people under their bed.” ANNE FL AHERT Y (AP)

Washington Senate Democrats suffered what looked like a difficult setback on birth control Wednesday, but they hope it pays big political dividends in November. Republicans blocked a bill that was designed to override a Supreme Court ruling and ensure access to contraception for women who get their health insurance from companies with religious objections. The vote was 56-43 to move ahead on the legislation — dubbed the “Not My Boss’ Business Act” by proponents — four short of the 60 necessary to proceed. But Democrats hope the issue has enough life to energize female voters in the fall, when Republi-

Then they all left. Kildee and three other Democrats joined for parts of the exercise. No politician participated for the entire exercise. Kildee joined his family unit 15 minutes after the session began, taking the role of Albert, and spent his first simulated week trying to find a job while paying his mortgage bill. Less than a half-hour into the exercise, a staffer told Kildee that he had to leave for another event. Kildee put down his funny money and shook some hands. He was thankful for the opportunity, but also a little relieved to leave. “Poor people are the hardestworking people in America,” he said. “It’s hard.” R O B E R T S A M U E L S (THE WASHINGTON POST )

After a Day of Deadly Attacks, a Pause Gaza City, Gaza Strip The Israeli military agreed to a U.N.brokered “humanitarian” pause starting today in its strikes on the Gaza Strip to allow Palestinians to restock food, water and other necessities, hours after an attack by an Israeli naval vessel killed four Palestinian boys playing on the beach. But a senior Israeli military official said a ground invasion of Gaza was still a “very high possibility.” In response to a call by the United Nations, the military said in a statement Wednesday that it would hold its fire for five hours
A relative grieves Wednesday at a morgue in Gaza City following an Israeli airstrike that killed four boys, who were cousins ages 9 to 11, while they were playing on a beach off a coastal road west of Gaza City.

Israel agrees to hold fire so Palestinians can restock supplies
but warned it will retaliate “firmly and decisively” if Hamas or other militant groups launch attacks on Israel during that time. The announcement came after a day of Israeli airstrikes and Palestinian militant rocket attacks as
Hamas formally rejected a cease-fire proposal that had been accepted by Israel to end the 9-day-old conflict that officials say has left at least 213 Palestinians and one Israeli dead. The four boys, who were cousins ages 9 to 11, were killed Wednesday
while playing on a beach, a Palestinian health official said. Seven others were wounded in the strike. On the beach, a witness said the boys were scavenging for scrap metal when a first shell hit a shipping container used in the past by
the Hamas security forces. He said the boys fled. The second rocket “hit all of them,” he said. Mobile phone video circulated on Facebook showed the small bloodied bodies lying in the sand. The boys’ uncle, Abdel Kareem Baker, raged at Israel after the attack. “It’s a cold-blooded massacre,” he said. “It’s a shame … they didn’t identify them as kids with all of the advanced technology they claim they’re using.” The Israeli military said it was looking into the incident. Hamas fired dozens of rockets into Israel on Wednesday and vowed to reject a cease-fire until its demands are met, including easing Gaza’s 7-year-old border blockade by Israel and Egypt.

In Ukraine, Bracing for Bitter Fight Kiev, Ukraine Insurgents bade tearful farewells Wednesday as they loaded their families onto Russia-bound buses and began hunkering down for what could be the next phase in Ukraine’s conflict: bloody urban warfare. While the pro-Russian rebels in the east have lost much ground in recent weeks and were driven from their stronghold of Slovyansk, many have regrouped in Donetsk, a city that had a population of 1 million before tens of thousands fled for fear of a government siege. The rebels also hold the city of Luhansk.

Germany is considering going back to the trusty old typewriter to counter alleged spying by the U.S. government. In an interview with the TV service Morgenmagazin — according to the Guardian — a politician in charge of a parliamentary inquiry into U.S. spying in Germany said that the government is seriously considering a low-tech solution to the ongoing espionage problem. Asked “Are you considering typewriters?” by the interviewer, politician Patrick Sensburg said: “As a matter of fact, we have — and not electronic models either.” “Really?” the surprised interviewer checked. “Yes, no joke,” Sensburg responded. Last week, Germany asked
Before Germany … After Edward Snowden released the first of his revelations about the U.S. government’s surveillance activities last year, Russia said that it would also revert to the typewriter. Russia’s Federal Guard Service, which protects Russian officials, put in an order for 20 Triumph Adler typewriters last year, according to the Russian newspaper Izvestiya. (T WP)
the CIA’s station chief to leave the country after investigators uncovered alleged spying operations, at a time when many are still angry over the exposure last year of U.S. surveillance programs whose targets included Chancellor Angela Merkel. But as clever as the tactic seems,
the typewriter wouldn’t necessarily make communications spy-proof. Technology has made spying from thousands of miles away a much easier. But before computers, spying was done the old-fashioned way — and there’s no reason why it can’t be done that way again, said Vince Houghton of the International Spy Museum in D.C. “We certainly spied on people before the age of computers and were able to pull stuff off typewriter ribbons,” Houghton said. Outrage over American spying in Germany has reached fever pitch. People in its government are wary of talking on the phone and sending emails and many have gone back to coffees and walks in the park, the Guardian said. ABBY PHILLIP (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Japanese authorities have declared that two nuclear reactors meet new standards put in place after the 2011 Fukushima disaster and are safe enough to be restarted, paving the way for the revival of the country’s atomic energy industry. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe has been pressing for an end to the nuclear shutdown imposed after an earthquake and tsunami caused a catastrophic meltdown at the Fukushima Daiichi power plant. The reactors will not be switched on just yet, though. Authorities are now starting a month of public consultation.

Silver Line Test Week Is Coming Metro riders should take note of changes that start on Sunday
How Silver Line Testing Could Change Your Ride Next Week
Washington Metro is testing the Silver Line trains before the line’s scheduled opening on July 26. While the tests begin Sunday, the real impact on commuters will come on Monday. That’s when the Rush Plus Orange Line disappears and two Blue Line trains get shifted over to the Yellow Line. Some riders have been dreading the start because of the subtractions on the other lines. But
FROM:
TO:
EFFECT DURING RUSH PERIODS:
East Falls Church, Clarendon or Rosslyn
Downtown D.C.
Your stations will either have a couple more trains per hour during the rush or the same number of trains.
Vienna, Dunn Loring or West Falls Church
Downtown D.C.
You will return to the level of service before Rush Plus added trains in 2012. Trains should arrive about every six minutes, Metro says. Many who now use those outer Orange Line stations will begin using the new Silver Line stations when they open.
Blue and Yellow line stations in Virginia
Downtown D.C.
Starting next week, Blue Line riders will find rush hour trains arriving 12 minutes apart. The primary impact is on riders bound for stations on the west side of D.C. or Rosslyn. The Yellow Line gets two more trains per hour starting Monday morning.
Downtown D.C.
West Falls Church, Dunn Loring or Vienna
Riders will wait longer than they do now for a Vienna-bound train. They may be better off boarding an East Falls Church-bound train (meaning it’s one of the Silver Line test trains) and getting off at East Falls Church. The next Vienna-bound train reaching the East Falls Church platform is likely to be much less crowded.
Downtown D.C.
New Carrollton
You’ll have less frequent service starting next week. The number of trains per hour during rush will drop from 14 to 11 per hour between Minnesota Ave. and New Carrollton.
New Carrollton or Largo Town Center
Points west
The same number of trains as today will leave from New Carrollton during the morning rush. From Largo Town Center, riders will have five more trains per hour. (T WP)

the upcoming week of “simulated service” adds an extra challenge: The Silver Line won’t be operating as “the Silver Line.” Starting Sunday, test trains will leave the new Wiehle-Reston East station and travel without passengers until joining the Orange Line at East Falls Church. At that point, they will become Orange Line trains and take on passengers. They will continue east as Orange Line trains to Largo Town Center. From there, they will turn back west — still as Orange Line trains — to East Falls Church. That’s where all passengers will get off and wait for the next Orange Line train toward Vienna. Starting with the Monday rush, the test trains will operate every six minutes at peak periods.

Local Police prepare for a sea change in local marijuana laws Washington On Wednesday, a D.C. cop catching someone carrying a small amount of marijuana would have been required to launch his suspect on an onerous journey through the criminal justice system. Today, that same cop will face the simpler task of pulling out a ticket book and checking a box: littering, or possession of marijuana? A marijuana decriminalization law passed by the D.C. Council this
spring completed a 60-day congressional review period and was expected to take effect at midnight. Under new orders, D.C. police can no longer take action upon simply smelling the odor of marijuana. Nor can they demand that a person found in possession of up to 1 ounce produce identification. Those found with larger amounts or caught using marijuana in public places can still be arrested and charged with a crime, but otherwise officers who catch someone carrying weed will be required simply to confiscate any visible contraband and write a ticket carrying a $25 fine. Among the vagaries of decriminalization is that federal law enforce-

ings, while misdemeanors such as smoking pot in public will be prosecuted by the D.C. attorney general. Delroy Burton, chairman of the D.C. police union, criticized the new law as too vague and confusing, citing the new rules relating to when officers may search or arrest someone on a marijuana charge. Meanwhile, the long-term prospects for the city’s marijuana laws remain unsettled. Congressional Republicans have sought to intervene, adding language meant to overturn the new law to a spending bill. But Democrats are unlikely to go along in budget negotiations. Meanwhile, advocates for the outright legalization of marijuana are seeking to have D.C. residents vote on the question in November. MIKE DeBONIS AND PETER HERMANN (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Notice of Community Hearings
Jerry Greenspan is fighting an attempt by Maryland officials to regulate arcades
Md. Arcade Owners Upset Over Proposed Game Fees Ocean City, Md. If ever there seemed a place immune to bureaucratic meddling, it would be inside The Claw, a glass box piled high with plush “Despicable Me” dolls, waiting to be plucked by a claw crane. And yet, state lawmakers have managed to wriggle inside. The staple of summer could be at risk — at least that’s what arcade owners are warning. For the first time, amusement game operators are facing some of the same requirements as the state’s casinos, and they fear additional fees and paperwork will make it impossible to make a profit on skee-ball, crane games and other pursuits. The regulations proposed by the Maryland Lottery and Gaming Control Commission would apply to games everywhere. But the loudest outcry has come from Ocean City. “These businesses are the heart of Ocean City, especially our board-
How It Would Work Under the proposal, games that award prizes with a wholesale value of more than $30 would require a $50 licensing fee and approval from the lottery commission. Manufacturers and distributors would pay a fee for each machine on top of that. They must be tested, and their movements documented in quarterly reports. The lottery commission has almost a year to finalize the rules. (T WP)
walk,” said Melanie Pursel, executive director of the Greater Ocean City Chamber of Commerce, which has criticized the new rules. Having survived the Xbox and the Great Recession, Jerry Greenspan, the second-generation co-owner of Sportland, said he plans to fight the new rules as long as possible. “I am not going to be regulated out of business.” ANNYS SHIN (THE WASHINGTON POST )

Little Law in Road Wars? Both drivers and cyclists bemoan spotty crackdown on traffic violators
With more bikes than ever in D.C., safety advocates worry police aren’t doing enough to keep traffic of all types in line.
stings at dangerous intersections. The District’s long-range transportation plan envisions 200 miles of on-street bike facilities but emphasizes that success depends on having a clear education campaign and enforcement strategies. Because D.C. is still a young bike city, frustration is to be expected, transportation officials say. Biking has only taken off in the past five years. The first protected bike lane opened on 15th Street NW in 2009. Capital Bikeshare, which launched
One City’s Success Story Portland, Ore., has a specialized police division to oversee traffic enforcement, and that is viewed as instrumental in making it one of the most bikefriendly cities in the country. In general, officials there say, pedestrians, cyclists and drivers have learned to coexist peacefully; pedestrian and cyclist fatalities are down, and behavior has changed. For example, studies suggest that 94 percent of Portland cyclists now stop at red lights. Portland began installing bike lanes about two decades ago, and since then, the city has adopted a series of policies. It has installed separate traffic signals for bikes, and invested in signs that are more visible to drivers, cyclists and pedestrians. There also are special green “bike boxes” where bicyclists wait during red lights. Bicyclists stop inside the green box, while drivers stop at the white line behind the box. (T WP)

As an increasing number of Washington-area residents forgo their vehicles and choose to bike or walk, tensions between drivers, cyclists and pedestrians have escalated, with reports of terrifying encounters: drivers intimidating cyclists, cyclists antagonizing drivers, pedestrians at the mercy of both. The one thing all three agree on: D.C. police are not doing enough to enforce the rules. While D.C. Police Chief Cathy Lanier has expanded the city’s lucrative traffic-camera program to catch speeders and red-light runners, critics say that has led to the department becoming too dependent on automated enforcement with few officers monitoring distracted driving, bicyclists running red lights and pedestrians obstructing traffic. D.C. police deny that there are too few officers monitoring the roads. Police, however, declined to provide statistics about citations issued to motorists and pedestrians. Earlier this month, police did provide information on citations issued to bicyclists. Last year, the department issued 203 citations, less than half the number issued in 2012, when 446 citations were issued. The precipitous drop comes despite more cyclists on the roads. Sgt. Terry Thorne of the D.C. police said the number of citations issued is not a good measure of enforcement, which often includes verbal warnings. When cyclists complained about U-turns across the Pennsylvania Avenue bike lane, police issued warnings and citations, he said. The department recently announced plans to start safety

in 2010, puts more than 2,500 bikes on D.C.-area streets. The growth corresponds with an increase in the number of crashes involving cyclists and pedestrians. To reduce danger, residents say more needs to be done to discourage bad behavior, such as pedestrians distracted by cellphones and drivers who fail to keep a safe distance — at least 3 feet — when overtaking or passing cyclists. “People are genuinely ignorant of the rules,” said Elizabeth Lyttleton, 37, a mom in Northeast. Tyler Lopez, a Dupont Circle resident who walks to work, said the spike in bikes has created challenges for pedestrians. “There is a significant minority of cyclists who feel that they are entitled to do whatever they want,” he said. Motorists and cyclists say that nothing prepared them for the hazards on the roads they now share. Sam Zimbabwe at the District’s Department of Transportation, said: “This is really about a culture shift for all users of the road.” “If 99 percent of the people are obeying the laws, we don’t want to vilify those people or make them feel persecuted. We want to address the 1 percent.”

‘Jesus, Etc.’ by Wilco
From left, Sasha Dobson, Norah Jones and Catherine Popper demonstrate one way to get the bartender’s attention.
Boots Made for Rockin’ Norah Jones’ group Puss n Boots raises the bar on bar bands Music With a loose, country-rock sound and a stable of familiar covers, Puss n Boots sounds like the bar band you’d find in a Texas honky-tonk on a Tuesday night — until you hear that sultry, refined voice. It’s Norah Jones’, and it’s unmistakable, no matter the accompaniment. But Jones isn’t the only star of this show. She shares the spotlight with jazz singer and long-
INDIES & ARTIES
time friend Sasha Dobson and bassist Catherine Popper, who has played with Ryan Adams, Grace Pot ter and Jack White. Though t hey ’ve been a band on and off since the late 2000s, Puss n Boots just got around to releasing a debut album, “No Fools, No Fun,” this week, and hits 9:30 Club on Thursday on its first proper tour. The album is a mix of covers and originals, recorded live and in the studio. Dobson and Popper contribute two originals each, Jones wrote
one (“Don’t Know What it Means”) and the remaining seven songs are covers. We asked Dobson — who sings, plays guitar and drums when a song calls for it — about three of the trio’s standout covers.
‘Bull Rider’ by Rodney Crowell (made famous by Johnny Cash) The album’s title comes from a lyric in this classic country tune that the band has been performing since its nascent days, when Dobson and Jones were learning guitar together in Brooklyn. “That was one of the first songs where I was like, ‘Hey Norah, you know how to play this?’ ”
Fri., Sat. & Mon.
Jones has been covering this song from Wilco’s “Yankee Hotel Foxtrot” for years now. In 2008, when Dobson and Popper joined Jones for Neil Young’s annual Bridge School benefit concert, they played “Jesus, Etc.” — as did another band on the bill: Wilco. That eventually led to the trio performing the song with Wilco at Madison Square Garden. “We all made friends on that gig and [when Wilco] were playing in New York, they asked us to sing background on it.” Puss n Boots strips the song down to its core elements, much like the solo acoustic version Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy performed at the Lincoln Theatre last month.
FILM RIFFS UNIVERSAL PICTURES
Dobson says. The recording on the album is live, a nod to the song’s status as a fan favorite. “It’s one of the staples of our band,” she says. “Everyone — our little, local Brooklyn fan base — wants to hear that song. That’s part of how we chose songs: what went over well.”
Fright Night “The Purge: Anarchy,” out Friday, follows its 2013 predecessor’s conceit of an America where, for one night only, all crime is legal. When a couple’s car breaks down on that night, things turn hilarious! By which we mean terrible, like these movie nights. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)
1 ‘Die Hard’ John McClane has the worst Christmas Eve ever in the 1988 original. He’s separated from his wife, he has to fight terrorists, and there’s just no chance he’ll get that pony he asked for.
‘Down by the River’ by Neil Young and Crazy Horse
2 ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’
You can tell from the recording that Young’s epic murder ballad is a blast to play live. “It’s so much fun, especially for us jazz nerds,” Dobson says. “None of us are actively doing jazz right now, and it’s just so fun to be in that position finally.” “Down by the River” is Puss n Boots’ chance to rock hard and Jones’ opportunity to show off her formidable guitar skills. “I can feel Norah opening up,” Dobson says. “She never gets to do s--- like this.”

‘The Good, the Bad and the Ugly’:
WHEEDLE-DEEDLE-DOOOO! (wha-WHA-whaaaaa.) Yes, in our grand tradition of transcribing movie themes, that is the signature song from 1966’s “The Good, The Bad and the Ugly,” playing this weekend as part of the AFI Silver’s series on director Sergio Leone. The recent passing of star Eli Wallach pushed the spaghetti western (which also features Clint Eastwood, left) back into the public’s consciousness — not that it ever really left — and, if you haven’t seen it, you owe it to yourself to do so. And to sing “WHEEDLE-DEEDLE-DOOOO!” for the rest of the evening. And possibly your life.

It’s another awful Christmas Eve in 1946 when George Bailey decides to toss himself off a bridge. Thanks to a ton of flashbacks, though, he decides there are better ways to spend the holiday.
This 1985 film is a comedy, but if you look at it, a night in a mansion is way more fun when people do more partying and less dying.
4 ‘Night of the Living Dead’ In this 1968 horror classic, a bunch of people hide in a farmhouse during a zombie attack. That’s the bad news. The good news is there are snacks! For the zombies.
5 ‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’ It’s the worst cocktail party ever in this 1966 film, which starts out with friendly banter and ends with Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton verbally savaging each other while another couple tries to figure out a polite way to find more vodka.

AUTHOR (‘THE JEWISH DAUGHTER DIARIES’), D.C. RESIDENT
Think your mom is the most intrusive and overprotective of them all? Rachel Ament knows 26 Jewish daughters who beg to differ. There’s actress Mayim Bialik, whose mother’s soothing mantra did more to confuse than console her, and writer Abby Sher, whose mom gently suggested a nose job. Ament, a Dupont Circle resident who edited their stories and others into “The Jewish Daughter Diaries,” will discuss moms’ good intentions Thursday at Sixth and I Historic Synagogue. moms fit in?
In these stories a cross-cultural theme emerges: Love transcends guilt, annoyance and smothering. Why?
I definitely think there’s overlap between tiger moms and some of these other mom tropes in other cultures. I think that Jewish moms tend to worry more and panic more and live in extremes. I also think Jewish moms are known for their humor. They have these exaggerated personalities. They tend to be really hysterical and they have a sense of humor about themselves.
They realize that all this overinvolvement and over-concern is all rooted in love, and I feel like when you put so much love out there to your children, it comes to you in return. What about the stories surprised you most?
realized that most of these things I thought I never would do I will do. I would be watching the kids at recess and think of every conceivable way they could possibly hurt themselves. When did you last speak to your mom and what did you talk about?
I talked to my mom last night, and I told her about this interview. She was really excited.
What have you vowed to avoid if you have kids?
I always thought that I wouldn’t be overprotective and that I wouldn’t be a stereotypical Jewish mom, but then I was student-teaching and I

Salvatore Scarpitta took sprint car racing from the track to the gallery Exhibits If you think NASCAR crashes look brutal, you haven’t seen sprint cars in action. Fearless drivers in small towns across America race these ultra-lightweight vehicles at speeds approaching 140 miles per hour. If two sprint cars so much as brush their exposed wheels against each other, both vehicles go flying end-over-end in opposite directions. At least seven sprint
car drivers died last year alone. When sculptor Salvatore Scarpitta began watching sprint car racing while growing up in L.A. in the 1930s, the sport’s safety record was even worse. “He was struck by the joyfulness with which the drivers risked their lives,” says Melissa Ho, curator of “Salvatore Scarpitta: Traveler,” which opens at the Hirshhorn on Thursday. “Scarpitta saw something life-affirming about voluntarily taking on that kind of risk.” Scarpitta, who died in 2007, went on to become a famous artist, but the smell of burning rubber never left his nose. In 1964, he began building sprint cars in the style of the racers of his youth. In
CASTELLI GALLERY RECORDS
High Risk, High Art
Artist Salvatore Scarpitta began building old-style sprint cars in the 1960s.
Way cooler than monster trucks: A modern competitive sprint car will be parked on the Hirshhorn Plaza for the Salvatore Scarpitta show’s grand opening Thursday at 7 p.m. Listen to driver Greg O’Neill talk about racing on Scarpitta’s team, watch a documentary about the artist and tour the exhibit with curator Melissa Ho — all for free. Plus, there will be barbecue and beer for sale. S.D.
1985, he bought a modern sprint car and gave it a pop-art paint job. The next year, with the help of gallery owner Leo Castelli, Scarpitta bought another car and started his own racing team. Scarpitta was claiming sprint cars — and the experience of racing them — as art. Like painting, dance and music, “car racing has no utility beyond being an expression of human passion,” Ho says. Two of Scarpitta’s cars are on view at the Hirshhorn alongside 17 other works. The two cars happen to be Scarpitta’s only full-sized race cars still in the U.S. “Collectors in Europe went crazy for them,” Ho says. “We’re lucky to have any.” SADIE DINGFELDER (E XPRESS) Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Independence Avenue and Seventh Street SW; through Jan. 11, free; 202-6331000, hirshhorn.si.edu. (L’Enfant Plaza)
LEE STALSWORTH
Curator Melissa Ho speculates that the senseless violence of the Three Mile Island nuclear meltdown in 1979 was meant to contrast with the calculated risk taken by race car drivers. “Car racing disasters are entirely different than the kind of disaster brought upon you by larger political or social forces.”
Salvatore Scarpitta bought a Trevis-model sprint car in 1985, gave it a pop-art paint job and named it after himself. The “Trevis Race Car (Sal Gambler Special)” acted as a talisman for Scarpitta’s real-life racing team, Ho says. “The car in the gallery provided spiritual support for the cars out on the track.”
Scarpitta enlisted Baltimore artist and sign-painter Larry Poncho Brown to add lettering and illustrations.
The 1,500-pound car was capable of sustained speeds of up to 130 miles per hour, thanks to a 670-horsepower alcohol-injected Chevrolet engine. Modern sprint cars go upward of 140 miles per hour and weigh as little as 1,400 pounds, including the driver.
Scarpitta may have painted this basketweave pattern himself. “Larry didn’t remember painting it,” Ho says.
Sprint cars have asymmetrical back tires, since they are constantly turning left on tracks that are around a half-mile long.
Scarpitta had Brown add the Bazooka logo to complement the candy logos on the wing, which remained from the car’s original sponsor, a candy distributor.
Scarpitta brought a sketch of his beloved pitbull, Vito, for Brown to paint on the car.
The Prime Rib steak house, which still has locations in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., sponsored Scarpitta’s team. On the other side of the car, gallery owner Leo Castelli and team engineer Walt Shriver receive shout-outs. “Scarpitta is very deliberately treating all those things on an even playing field,” Ho says. “He is not elevating Castelli over Shriver, even though they are people from completely different worlds.”

KoChix KOREAN FRIED CHICKEN TAKEAWAY IN BLOOMINGDALE
You may know Mathew Ramsey for his imagerich website, pornburger.me, which has garnered national attention for its epic ingredients and perfect puns. Take the Melon Monroe burger: a stack of fried pig ear, mini cucumbers and compressed watermelon sandwiched between two beautiful, blonde goat cheese beignets. Ramsey does more than burgers. Last month, the culinary school grad launched a monthly four-seat supper club called Bar R (currently the only place you’ll be able to try one of his creations), and he’s authoring a cookbook full of more food porn. R a m se y ’s home turf is Bloomingdale, a swath of awesomeness on the edge of Northwest D.C. “I tried living KoChix wings in Dupont, but that was too glossy,” he says. “Then there was H Street, but it didn’t have a neighborhood vibe. Bloomingdale is a place where everyone says hi.” So where does Ramsey go to gorge on edible eye candy? KoChix — a mom-and-pop shop specializing in Korean fried chicken. “I don’t dig KoChix, I crave KoChix,” he says. The two-seat spot is helmed by Karen and Young Park, a couple so adorable you’ll want them to adopt you. Their crispy wings — available in soy garlic, honey spicy and hot honey spicy flavors — have just the right amount of sweetness, as if Willy Wonka gave them a kiss. Karen Park says the secret to the crispiness is double frying, first for seven minutes, then four. If you don’t live in Bloomingdale, rejoice in knowing that KoChix is now on Caviar, an online delivery service. L AUR A HAYES (FOR E XPRESS) KoChix, 400 Florida Ave. NW; 202-232-3468, www.kochix.com.

PORK Pork shoulders are coated with yellow mustard and a secret spice blend. (“I’m from Baltimore, so that should give you a hint,” Woody says.) It’s available pulled or North Carolina-style: chopped with vinegar sauce and coleslaw.
BRISKET In the time it takes Woody to smoke this Texas-style delicacy, you could make 1,080 servings of Minute Rice. “Think about how dense a cow is,” he says. “Cooking it for this long breaks down the tissue and makes it moist.” It’s rubbed with black pepper and available sliced or chopped with a smoky BBQ sauce.
2 hours
CHICKEN Don’t overlook this oft-neglected meat. The organic and antibiotic-free chickens come from Pennsylvania’s Amish Country and are smoked until they’re plump with jus. Birds come whole or hand-pulled. (We prefer the former.)
3.5 hours
5 hours
RIBS Pork ribs are rubbed with the same secret spices used on the pork and cooked for almost four hours. Get them dry-rubbed (straight off the smoker) or honey-glazed (finished on the grill and slathered with Fat Pete’s Memphis-Sweet sauce).
TURKEY Don’t wait until Thanksgiving to savor Woody’s turkey, which is marinated in a specialty brine and coated with a mix of spices before it’s smoked for five hours. We like it best topped with Fat Pete’s house-made KC Style Spicy sauce.

2 CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE The decadent treat is made with a 60-percent-cacao Valrhona chocolate crafted in France. Lai adds the premium ingredient to the cream base, along with Belgian dark chocolate sprinkles. 3 BLUEBERRY PIE “Great grandmas will make you blueberry pie, but awesome grandmas will make you blueberry pie ice cream,” Lai says. Think of Lai as your young, energetic nana who will whip up pate brisee dough (commonly used for tart crusts) and add it to cream that’s been mixed with fresh blueberry puree.

4 MANGO HABANERO Following a trying habanero incident (“It was not pleasant,” she says), Lai now dons gloves to chop the fresh habaneros she uses to create a spicy simple syrup. She adds a mango puree for an even mix of sweet and heat. “It’s like a pinch on your cheek, not a poke in your eye.”

What’s the Scoop?
OFF COURSE WITH…
1 BANANA BOURBON CARAMEL One of the first flavors Lai made, this timetested recipe blends mashed ripe bananas with the cream base and secret spices. Lai adds bourbon for some bite and finishes it off with caramel swirls.
Micah, left, and Ari Wilder unveiled a Charlie Chaplin-themed spot last week.
Micah and Ari Wilder The brothers Wilder grew up enchanted by Charlie Chaplin movies, which helps explain why the mixologists recently opened Chaplin, an Asian restaurant inspired by the mustachioed funnyman offering ramen and dumpling shooters (1501 Ninth St. NW).
What’s something you’re bad at? Ari: Relationships. Micah: Day jobs. I’ve never had one.

The flavors at Ice Cream Jubilee, now open at the Capitol Riverfront, are inventive and delicious The best things in life are sweet, according to lawyer-cum-ice-cream-maven Victoria Lai. She opened her first shop, Ice Cream Jubilee, at the Capitol Riverfront over the weekend with summery flavors made from local and seasonal ingredients. The space serves as Lai’s playground, where she dreams up innovative ice cream and sorbet flavors (half scoop, $3; full scoop, $4.95; triple scoop, $5.95). “I think about ice cream all the time,” Lai says. “A lot of my flavors come from asking myself, ‘What do I want a lot more of?’ ” Every ice cream starts with the same base of fresh cream from South Mountain Creamery in Maryland, though the results are anything but vanilla.

5 THAI ICED TEA For her frozen take on the classic Asian beverage, Lai steeps black tea leaves in her cream base and strains them before the mix gets bitter. It’s then churned, leaving behind a vibrant ice cream in both color and flavor. 6 DARK & STORMY Inspired by her favorite cocktail, Lai steeps candied ginger in the cream base to give it a tangy ginger-beer taste. She then strains out the ginger and adds Gosling’s dark rum. It’s a rich, boozy indulgence without the hangover. 7 GIN & TONIC Let’s all thank Lai’s mother for this creation. “I’m going to dedicate this one to my mom, because she loves gin and tonics,” Lai says. The sorbet is a bright, tangy and smooth mix of Beefeater Gin, tonic and freshly zested lime. 8 COOKIES ’N’ COOKIE DOUGH Oreos mingle with house-made (and eggfree) cookie dough in the shop’s cream base. “It seems like such a logical choice,” Lai says. “Oreos are awesome, cookie dough is awesome.”

Golf course, Woods are much different since his ’06 victory
British Open Site: Hoylake, England Schedule: Today-Sun.
British Open
Course: Royal Liverpool Golf Club (7,312 yards, par 72)
Royal Liverpool is nothing like Tiger Woods remembers from his twoshot British Open victory in 2006. The course was brown and dusty that year, and the ball was bouncing along at such speed that Woods hit only one driver the entire week. That was on the 16th hole, and the shot wound up on the 17th fairway. He still made birdie.
Purse: $9.24 million Winner’s share: $1.67 million TV: ESPN (today-Fri., 4 a.m.-6 p.m., 7-10 p.m.; Sat., 7 a.m.-2:30 p.m., 7-10 p.m.; Sun., 6 a.m.-1:30 p.m.) and ABC (Sat.-Sun., 3-6 p.m.) Last year: Phil Mickelson won at Muirfield for his fifth major title, birdieing four of the last six holes for a 5-under 66.

“The golf course is a little bit softer than what it was in ’06,” said Woods, who was scheduled to tee off at 4:04 a.m. today. Woods has played only two competitive rounds in the last four months because of back pain that led to surgery. He got to England earlier than usual to get acclimated to links golf. “I’ve played three practice rounds now and have had three different winds,” he said Tuesday. “So that’s been helpful to be able to see the golf course in different conditions.” Woods missed the cut at Congressional in his return to competition three weeks ago, but his goal for this weekend hasn’t changed. When asked what would be a reasonable result in his first major of the year, Woods replied, “First. “That’s always the case.”

Tiger Woods’ score when he won the British Open at Royal Liverpool in 2006 — beating Chris DiMarco by two strokes after a 67 on Sunday.
Tiger Woods was scheduled to tee off at 4:04 a.m. today at Royal Liverpool.
The back surgery forced him to miss the Masters for the first time, and then the U.S. Open. The last time Woods had this much time off with so little competition before a major was in 2010 when he returned from the chaos in his personal life. He tied for fourth at the Masters. It might help that he at least has won at Royal Liverpool, even if the course has changed dramatically. Woods has changed, too.
“Hopefully, I have it done by then. But I’m really looking forward to that cart.” — TIGER WOODS, 38, REFERRING TO CHAMPIONS TOUR PLAYERS BEING ALLOWED TO RIDE IN A CART, WHEN HE WAS ASKED IF HE WOULD PLAY WELL INTO HIS 40S AND EVEN HIS EARLY 50S IF IT MEANT A CHANCE TO BREAK JACK NICKLAUS’ MAJOR RECORD OF 18.
His victory eight years ago produced more raw emotion than ever for Woods. It was his first major since the death of his father, Earl, two months earlier. He sobbed on the shoulders of his caddie and then his wife. Woods now has a different caddie and he is divorced. “My life has certainly changed a lot since then,” Woods said. “That was a very emotional week. As you all know, I pressed pretty hard at Augusta that year, trying to win it, because it was the last time my dad was ever going to see me play a major championship. And then I didn’t play well at the [U.S.] Open — missed the cut there miserably. And then came here and just felt at peace. I really, really played well. On Sunday, I really felt calm out there. “It was surreal at the time. I’ve had a few moments like that in majors where I’ve felt that way on a Sunday. And that was certainly one of them.” DOUG FERGUSON (AP)
A Bad Run for England: Justin Rose, left, and 18 other Englishmen have a two-fold mission at the British Open: end their country’s 22-year wait for a champion and lift the gloom hanging over England’s woeful sporting summer. In the past two months, England’s football team made its earliest exit from a World Cup since 1958, Chris Froome’s defense of his Tour de France title lasted five stages before crashing out and Andy Murray failed to defend his Wimbledon title — its worst sequence in 21 years. Maybe England’s golfers at Royal Liverpool can end the misery. (AP)

Wizards Make Move For Blair NBA The Wizards are finalizing a signand-trade deal with Dallas to acquire free agent forward DeJuan Blair, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The expected move comes a day after Washington brought in forward Kris Humphries from Boston for part of a trade exception obtained in the three-team deal that sent Trevor Ariza to Houston. Bl a i r, a bu rly p o s t pl ayer who averaged 6.4 points and 4.7 rebounds per game as a reserve on the Mavericks last season, tweeted a reference to his new home Wednesday afternoon.

Sports All-Star omission let infielder catch up on the History channel Nationals Of the Nationals’ All-Star snubs, Anthony Rendon’s was the biggest — though missing out on the game probably didn’t matter much to the second-year infielder. A fter playing in 89 of the Nationals’ 93 games so far this season, Rendon was ready for some rest and relaxation. “I have a bed at home waiting for me to sleep in,” Rendon said before the break. “It’s a good four-
day vacation. We have a long season ahead.” On a team featuring former No. 1 overall picks Stephen Strasburg and Bryce Harper, Rendon has been the Nationals’ best player in 2014. He leads the team in batting average (.287) and hits (103), and ranks second with 13 home runs. Defensively, he holds a perfect fielding percentage in 24 games at second base and hasn’t committed an error at third since June 17. “He’s done everything,” center fielder Denard Span said. “He’s got on base, he’s scored runs, knocked in a ton of runs. Defensively, he’s been unbelievable at second base and third base. He’s been our MVP

so far the first half of this season.” Rendon brushed aside the personal accolades his teammates have bestowed upon him. “You just can’t label one player as an MVP,” he said. “There are nine guys on the field.” Staying home for the All-Star break wasn’t a big deal for Rendon, who said he never watched the game growing up. In fact, Rendon said he rarely watches the sport, preferring programs on networks such as the History channel instead. “I don’t watch baseball — it’s too long and boring,” he said. In addition, Rendon and his family have a rule that they won’t talk about baseball when he visits.
7:05 P.M. Friday | MASN
It’s clear Rendon, 24, has been able to separate his business from his personal life. But he doesn’t play the game like it bores him. Since his days at Rice University, the infielder has been a prized prospect with unlimited potential. He’s exceeding expectations in just his second season with the Nationals, a squad in the midst of a pennant race in the NL East. “I think he’s understanding the league a little more,” manager Matt Williams said. “We have to realize how young he is, certainly to the big leagues.” Jason But t (For E xpress)

New coordinator has set out to transform lowly special teams Redskins The former Apache helicopter pilot and company commander stood in front of the room and issued the challenge. “Who wants to join my special forces?” Ben Kotwica asked, as he conducted his first special teams meeting at Redskins Park back in the spring. He spoke of pride, commitment and a physical style of play. Special teams play ranked among
the lowest of the lowlights during Washington’s 3-13 campaign in 2013. And so, finding the right man to overhaul the unit was one of Jay Gruden’s first moves after being hired as head coach in January. He zeroed in on Kotwica, whose contract with the New York Jets had just expired. Under Kotwica, the Jets in 2013 ranked among the top 10 in the NFL in kickoff return yards, and 17th on kickoff coverage. By no coincidence, those two areas had ranked among Washington’s biggest weaknesses. Kotwica had proven himself as a fast riser in the NFL coaching ranks. And his leadership skills came without question both on

the field and off. After concluding his senior season as a linebacker for Army, where he anchored the defense and helped his team to 10 wins — most in school history — Kotwica went on to serve his country as an Apache helicopter pilot. During his eight years in the Army, Kotwica deployed to Bosnia, and was stationed in Korea. He never lost his love for football, and he realized coaching bore a number of similarities to his role as a company commander. “I think any time you try to form a unit or an organization, you want to instill a culture,” Kotwica said. “So there are things that I’ve brought
from my military background. I put an ‘Apply within’ sign on my front door, and we’re taking all applicants, and I think guys have bought into that. A lot of guys have signed up and want to help this ballclub.” Thus far, Kotwica’s tactics seem to have worked. “He’s getting everybody to buy into what he’s selling,” special teams standout Niles Paul said. “We’re believing in him. … Guys are communicating, guys are wanting to make tackles. That’s what special teams is all about.” Gruden agreed that Kotwica’s approach makes it impossible for players to take his message lightly or disrespect him. “Hell,” Gruden said chuckling. “He intimidates me. I’m never going to overstep my boundaries with him.” MIKE JONES (THE WASHINGTON POST)

OF “BOYHOOD,” ON THE MOVIE’S SCOPE
Newlywed Gauge
Read Marc’s previous columns at: www.washingtonpost.com/muse
In “Boyhood,” Mason (played by Ellar Coltrane) ages 12 years ...
... over the course of the film, which was shot between 2002 and 2013.
IFC FILMS PHOTOS
On “Married at First Sight” (9 p.m. Tuesdays on FYI), three brides and grooms legally wed “without ever having met” beforehand. Sounds so crazy you know it must be a reality series. The six came from a pool of singles who filled out forms and met four matchmakers: a psychologist, a sociologist, a chaplain, a sexologist. In the screening process, the singles listed “deal breakers” like “body odor” and “face tattoo.” One matchmaker rashly proclaims that the deal breakBy Marc ers aren’t really deal Silver breakers. Upbeat Doug, who wants “bratty,” ice-cream-spilling kids, is matched with weepy Jamie, pictured above with Doug, whose first impression is: “I just happen to be not attracted to the guy.” Jason, an EMT/pro wrestler who cares for his cancer-stricken mom, weds Cortney, whose “passion” is makeup. Monet wants a man who’ll pull her panties out of her butt crack if she has a wedgie. Hubbie Vaughn wants a curvy lady who’ll play the “wifey role.” After a month, they will decide: Stay together or split. In conclusion: I believe Tina Fey, whose “30 Rock” alter-ego Liz Lemon once hosted a show called “Dealbreakers,” wrote this entire show.
Aging Gracefully Richard Linklater had faith his experimental film ‘Boyhood’ would grow up just fine Film The shooting schedule for “Boyhood” wasn’t bad. The entire film was shot in around 40 days. It’s just that it took nearly 12 years. Richard Linklater, director of films like “Dazed and Confused,” “Before Sunrise” and “Bernie,” has pulled off his most extraordinary experiment yet. He wanted to tell
the stor y of an entire childhood but didn’t want to recast his central actor as the character aged. So in “Boyhood,” Linklater out locally Friday, El la r Colt ra ne plays Mason from ages 6 to 18 — not through the magic of CGI, but because shooting started in 2002 and wrapped last October, with the cast reconvening for a few days each year in between. It was a huge gamble for a lot of reasons, but Linklater, who also
‘Boyhood’ (R) Director: Richard Linklater Stars: Ellar Coltrane, Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke In a Nutshell: Child of divorce Mason (Coltrane) grows from a boy into a man, experiencing road trips, family dinners, birthdays and graduations along the way.
wrote the film, says he always knew it would all work out. “I had some strange confidence in my ability to work with whatever reality threw at me,” he says. So he didn’t worry that, for instance,
his lead actor would get hit by a bus midway or even that Coltrane would be unable to pull off the later, more emotionally resonant scenes. “He certainly didn’t suck [at acting] when he was young,” Linklater says. “Plus, at some point, probably by high school, that character is sort of meshing together with him to some degree.” While the film concentrates on Mason and, to a lesser degree, his sister Samantha (played by the director’s daughter Lorelei), it’s not all about the kids. The parents (Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke) get their own compelling, if peripheral, stories. “I knew where they were going even more specifically than the kids,” Linklater says. “That was all kind of mapped out in advance,” often with the help of the two actors. “That was the fun, collaborative nature of the fi lm. We had a year to think about what would come next.” Linklater knows people will come to the movie just to see how well he pulls this off — as well as to experience watching characters age 12 years in 2½ hours. “It’s clearly something no one’s done before, and that’s good news,” he says. “The other good news is that they will see how that was a storytelling device. It wasn’t a gimmick. They’ll go in on a conceptual level and come out thinking, ‘Wow, I’ve felt things I haven’t felt before.’ ” KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS)
Talking Teddy Theft: The creators of a Web series about a talking teddy bear filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles on Tuesday against Seth MacFarlane and the producers of the 2012 comedy “Ted” claiming that the movie unlawfully copies its main character. Deadline reports both Ted and the titular character in the series “Charlie the Abusive Teddy” spend most of their time on a couch with a beer or a cigarette and spend most of their money on prostitutes.

“To a casual observer, WHO’s new stance on HIV-preventing drugs (or PrEP) might look like a perpetuation of noxious anti-gay stereotypes. But whatever image problem widespread PrEP use might create is dwarfed by the HIV problem that currently plagues the gay community.” — MARK JOSEPH STERN AT SLATE.COM heralds the World Health Organization’s recommendation that all HIV-negative men who have sex with men take HIV-prevention drugs like Truvada in addition to using condom regularly. The group estimates that this could prevent about 1 million new HIV infections. The proposal is similar to one published by the CDC earlier this year.
“Does this kid from Omaha fully understand how much fame and wealth is sitting on the bench behind him in this picture? We hope so.”
“Young people support big government, unless it costs any more money. They’re for smaller government, unless budget cuts scratch a program they’ve heard of. They’d like Washington to fix everything, just so long as it doesn’t run anything.”

Isn’t That Her Thing? Kim Kardashian is set to earn about $85 million from the iPhone game that bears her name and likeness.
