Annual vote shines light on Va.’s historic relics in need of conservation AILEEN DEVLIN (THE DAILY PRESS VIA AP)
VIRGINIA The Virginia Association of Museums has released its annual nominations list for the top 20 endangered artifacts from large and small museums across the state. Voting by the public will narrow it to 10. The goal of the annual popularity contest is to bring the public’s attention to 20 historic artifacts in need of conservation and help the sometimes obscure museums that own them raise funds to protect them. Through Aug. 31, the public is invited to vote for the artifacts most deserving of conservation and to help fund that work by contributing to the individual museums. On Sept. 27, the association will name the top 10 honorees based on the number of votes cast for each artifact and input from an independent panel of collections and conservation experts. Three of the 20 artifacts are

Metro: Track defect likely derailed train
THE DISTRICT
U.S. Capitol plot suspect pleads guilty to 3 counts
GM ordered inspection of other ‘interlocking’ sections of system
CHRISTIAN K. LEE (THE WASHINGTON POST)
TRANSPORTATION Metro investigators believe that Friday’s derailment at East Falls Church station was caused by a defect on the tracks known as “wide gauge,” in which the two sides of the tracks are too far apart and cause the wheels to lose contact with the rails. The suspected defect caused a flurry of unplanned inspections over the weekend, and brought added scrutiny as the latest SafeTrack maintenance surge commenced Monday on the Red Line between the Takoma and Silver Spring stations. Last week’s derailment occurred while a train was passing through an interlocking, the mechanism that allows trains to shift between the tracks. Because this round of the SafeTrack surge involves continuous singletracking between the two eastern end stations, switches are working overtime to shuttle trains in either direction. That led General Manager Paul Wiedefeld to direct staff to inspect the interlockings at Silver Spring, Takoma and NoMa-Gallaudet stations before starting service on Monday morning. Despite the initial worries, the sixth SafeTrack surge started off relatively smoothly: Metro

reported that Red Line ridership was down about 30 to 40 percent, and passengers reported encountering the same amount of crowding on trains that they would experience on an average Monday morning — even though the wait was a little longer, with a reduced number of trains running through stations. When Carmen McDonald arrived at Fort Totten, she had just missed a train by a few moments, and realized it would be a 12-minute wait for the next arrival. “That’s good enough for me,” she said. LaShawn Frederick, 34, was less upbeat when she saw a 14-minute wait for an inbound train. “That’s a long time,” she said, to no one in particular, noticing
the wait times on the information display. “I’m gonna have to start showing up earlier if I don’t want to be late for work.” Accident investigators — including Metro staff, representatives from the Federal Transit Administration and the National Transportation Safety Board, as well as outside consultants — don’t believe that operator error was a factor in the derailment. The mishap resulted in one minor injury and caused the 60 passengers to be evacuated onto the tracks. Wiedefeld ordered special inspections of all the system’s tracks “to look for any other similar conditions that must be immediately addressed,” he said in a statement. MARTINE POWERS AND FAIZ SIDDIQUI (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Numbers up for MARC as Surge 6 starts The MARC train system saw a slight increase in ridership Monday morning in what could be a sign that some Metro riders are switching to the Maryland commuter rail system to avoid this week’s service disruptions on the Red Line. About 220 passengers more than normal commuted on MARC’s Brunswick Line, Maryland Transit Administration spokeswoman Sandy Arnette said. The MTA projects that more Metro users could use the commuter rail service as Metro’s SafeTrack program moves forward. Metro on Monday began the sixth surge of the agency’s maintenance blitz, with around-the-clock singletracking on the east end of the Red Line, between the Silver Spring and Takoma stations. (TWP)

Historic Ellicott City is seen Monday after a torrential flash flood Saturday.
Md. city faces long cleanup after flood ELLICOTT CITY, MD. The picturesque main street of Ellicott City — quaint with brightly colored storefronts — was in shambles Monday, two days after a catastrophic storm ripped through town, swallowing cars, demolishing structures and devouring their foundations. All but destroyed were antique shops, restaurants, a toy store and a beloved bar steps from the Patapsco River that local officials say opened their doors to feed rescue crews who responded to a fatal train derailment, the small city’s last disaster. This disaster though, was different: The magnitude of the storm all but washed away the historic boulevard, leaving behind waterlogged remnants of what stood there before. On Monday, construction crews crowded Main Street, which slopes sharply toward the river, using cranes to clear debris. A
tree had fallen directly into one store, bisecting it. A hair salon’s display window remained intact, with rows of shampoos and conditioners and a sign advertising ammonia-free hair color. But below the floorboards, its foundation had been entirely demolished. U.S. Sen. Barbara Mikulski toured the affected area on Monday and said she and Gov. Larry Hogan are working together to apply for federal funds for individuals, businesses and the local government. The acts of bravery during the storm, she said, “took my breath away.” Ed McDonough, a spokesman for the Maryland Emergency Management Agency, said officials won’t have a comprehensive damage estimate until building inspectors say damaged structures are stable enough for closer examination.

POLITICS Donald Trump drew direct criticism from Sen. John McCain and the Veterans of Foreign Wars on Monday for upbraiding the Muslim American parents of an Army officer killed in Iraq in 2004. But the GOP presidential nominee refused to back down from his attacks, and a former aide argued that the soldier would still be alive had Trump been president at the time. The condemnations by McCain, chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee and a Vietnam veteran who was held captive, and the VFW, a well-known national group with a membership of 1.7 million, served as the most forceful rebuke yet by the military community to Trump’s comments. The Arizona senator, a respected figure on national security issues in the Republican Party, issued a written statement sternly reprimanding Trump for his comments about the Khan family. “I cannot emphasize enough how deeply I disagree with Mr. Trump’s statement,” McCain said. “I hope Americans

POLITICS A longtime political adviser to former Republican presidential candidate Jeb Bush who helped write the Republican Party’s “autopsy” report after the 2012 elections is leaving the party and might vote for Hillary Clinton. Sally Bradshaw made the announcement in an interview with CNN, saying that despite decades of work on behalf of GOP candidates — most prominently Bush, the former Florida governor, and on his father’s 1988 presidential campaign — she might vote for Clinton if the race in her home state of Florida is close. Bradshaw told CNN in an email that the GOP is “at a crossroads and have nominated a total narcissist — a misogynist — a bigot.” “This election cycle is a test,” she wrote in her email. “As much as I don’t want another four years of Obama’s policies, I can’t look my children in the eye and tell them I voted for Donald Trump. I can’t tell them to love their neighbor and treat others the way they wanted to be treated, and then vote for Donald Trump. I won’t do it.” Bradshaw was a top adviser to Jeb Bush’s failed presidential bid, working on hiring staff and crafting his overall message. After the 2012 election, she was drafted by top RNC leaders to help co-write an after-action report to assess how the party suffered another White House loss. ED O’KEEFE (THE WASHINGTON POST)

U.S. airstrikes hit ISIS in Libya WASHINGTONPOST.COM TO YOUR HEALTH
CDC: Pregnant women should avoid Miami area For the first time, the Zika virus has prompted public health officials to warn pregnant women to avoid traveling to a part of the continental United States. The travel advisory comes in response to a growing outbreak of the mosquito-borne disease in South Florida. The state on Monday said there are 10 more people who have been infected with the Zika virus who likely contracted it from local mosquitoes, bringing the number of such cases in the state to 14. All of the cases have surfaced in a densely populated, trendy arts community north of downtown Miami. Because the virus can have devastating consequences for a fetus, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention urged pregnant women to avoid traveling to the area, and for pregnant women who live and work there to get tested for possible exposure during each prenatal visit. Furthermore, the CDC is advising that all pregnant women should be asked about travel to Zika-infested areas during routine prenatal visits. Any pregnant women who have traveled to Zika areas — including the Florida district experiencing an outbreak on or after June 15 — are advised to get tested for Zika. CDC Director Tom Frieden said new information indicates mosquito control efforts are not working as well as hoped.
LIBYA The United States has launched airstrikes on the Islamic State stronghold in Sirte, Libya, the Pentagon said Monday, the first direct U.S. involvement in the fierce battle unfolding there and a significant expansion of the American campaign against the group. In a statement, Pentagon press secretary Peter Cook said that Libya’s Western-backed unity government had requested the air support as forces under its command battle to reclaim the coastal city of Sirte, which became an ISIS stronghold after militants seized it last year. “Additional U.S. strikes will continue to target ISIL in Sirte in order to enable [Libya’s unity

government] to make a decisive, strategic advance,” Cook said, using an alternate acronym for ISIS. The precision strikes, which targeted an ISIS tank and vehicles, were the first for the U.S. against ISIS in Sirte. Speaking in a video statement, Fayez Serraj, the prime minister of Libya’s Western-backed
unity government, said he had requested the assistance to help the advance of local forces in Sirte, but said outside military involvement would remain limited in his country’s fight against ISIS. If the use of American air power is sustained, the Sirte campaign would open a new chapter in the Obama administration’s war
against ISIS and its campaign to establish a caliphate across a wide swath of Africa, the Middle East and Asia. While U.S. and allied war planes have been conducting strikes for two years in Iraq and Syria, coalition actions against the group’s Libya affiliate, which officials have described as its most powerful branch, have been limited to a small number of targeted airstrikes since last year, including a November 2015 attack on the group’s leader there. Since May, pro-government forces, led by militias based out of Misrata, have targeted the extremists from three sides of the city, as well as a naval blockade to prevent fighters from fleeing. Within weeks, the militias liberated large sections of the city. Today, a few hundred militants are believed to be holed up in a few sections of the city.

Tests find Rio waters filthy Scientist warns athletes, tourists: ‘Don’t put your head in the water’
WASHINGTONPOST.COM WORLDVIEWS
Aleppo rebels improvise no-fly zone with smoke
FELIPE DANA (AP)
RIO DE JANEIRO Just days ahead of the Olympic Games, the waterways of Rio de Janeiro are as filthy as ever, contaminated with raw human sewage teeming with dangerous viruses and bacteria, according to a 16-month study commissioned by The Associated Press. Not only are about 1,400 athletes at risk of getting ill in water competitions, but the AP’s tests indicate that tourists also face potentially serious health risks on the famous beaches of Ipanema and Copacabana. The AP’s survey of the aquatic Olympic and Paralympic venues has revealed consistent and dangerously high levels of viruses from the pollution, a major black eye on Rio’s Olympic project that has stunned sailors, rowers and open-water swimmers. In light of the findings, biomedical expert Valerie Harwood had one piece of advice for travelers to Rio: “Don’t put your head under water.” The most contaminated points are the Rodrigo de Freitas Lagoon, where Olympic rowing will take place, and the Gloria Marina, the starting point for the sailing races. Sampling at the Lagoon in March 2015 revealed an astounding 1.73 billion adenoviruses per liter. By this June, adenovirus readings were lower but still alarming, at 248 million

adenoviruses per liter. By comparison, in California, viral readings in the thousands per liter are considered dangerous. The Gloria Marina waters became more polluted over time. The first sampling there, in March 2015, showed over 26 million adenoviruses per liter. This June, over 37 million adenoviruses per liter were detected. “Seeing that level of human pathogenic virus is pretty much unheard of in surface waters in the U.S. You would never, ever see these levels because we treat our waste water. You just would not see this,” said Harwood, chair of the Department of Integrative Biology at the University of South Florida. Local authorities, including

Rio Mayor Eduardo Paes, have acknowledged the failure of the city’s water cleanup efforts, calling it a “lost chance” and a “shame,” but Olympic officials still insist Rio’s waterways will be safe for athletes and visitors. The first results of the AP study published over a year
ago showed viral levels at up to 1.7 million times what would be considered worrisome in the United States or Europe. At those concentrations, swimmers and athletes who ingest just three teaspoons of water are almost certain to be infected with viruses that can cause stomach and respiratory illnesses — although whether they actually fall ill depends on many factors, including the individual’s immune system. Danger is lurking even in the sand. Samples from the beaches at Copacabana and Ipanema revealed high levels of viruses, which recent studies have suggested can pose a health risk — especially for infants. JENNY BARCHFIELD (AP)
UBER MAPPING
The amount the ride-hailing giant Uber is investing in a new global mapping project to help free itself of its dependence on Google Maps, according to a report published in the Financial Times over the weekend. Google has started increasing the cost of its Google Maps service, hurting Uber’s bottom line. The Financial Times reports that Uber has started mapping roads in the U.S. and Mexico and will soon begin doing the same in other countries.

Syrian government forces have encircled Aleppo, once Syria’s most populous city, and with Russian backing, are bombarding it with planes and helicopters. The current siege, targeting rebel-held areas in the city’s east, has been met with fierce resistance from militias. Pro-government forces have air power, and the rebels do not. The shelling from the air is often indiscriminate, but has recently targeted hospitals. Rebels are guilty of their own indiscriminate mortar shelling of governmentcontrolled areas. In the absence of a no-fly zone, rebel supporters recently tried to make do on their own. Pictures and videos shared by rebel supporters and other antigovernment activists showed people, including many children, burning tires across eastern neighborhoods. The dense smoke from the fires blackened the sky and, to a certain degree, might have limited the government planes’ capacity to identify targets. In one video, a rebel supporter somewhat sarcastically apologizes to “all organizations that protect the environment” for the pollution caused by the fires. However, he claims that it is necessary to stop the planes from attacking and to “stop the crimes of the Russians and the Assad regime.” MAX BEARAK

Balloon pilot was convicted of drunken driving 4 times
Russian chopper shot down in Syria, killing all 5 aboard
Nigerian army killed 348 Shiites, inquiry says
The pilot of a hot air balloon that crashed Saturday in Texas, killing all 16 people aboard, was convicted of drunken driving at least four times in Missouri and twice spent time in prison, court records show. A former girlfriend described Alfred “Skip” Nichols as a recovering alcoholic. She said the 49-year-old had been sober for at least four years and never piloted a balloon after drinking. Nichols pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated in St. Louis County in 1990, then twice in 2002 and again in 2010, according to online court records. He was also convicted of a drug crime in 2000. (AP)
A Russian transport helicopter was shot down in opposition rebel territory in northern Syria on Monday and all five crew members and officers aboard were killed, the Kremlin said, in the deadliest single incident for the Russian military since its entrance into Syria’s civil war. The Mi-8 helicopter was shot down in Idlib province, where Russian warplanes have frequently targeted rebels fighting Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s forces. The Russian Defense Ministry said the chopper was returning to the Hemeimeem air base on the Syrian coast after delivering humanitarian goods to the city of Aleppo. (AP)
Nigeria’s army gunned down 348 Shiite Muslims in an attack last year in which one soldier was killed, according to a commission of inquiry report published Monday that calls for all involved in the killings to be prosecuted. “The Nigerian army used excessive force,” the report said of the troops that took part in a threeday military raid on the northern city of Zaria. The raid was conducted in response to members of the Islamic Movement in Nigeria’s December 2015 blockade that halted the convoy of Nigeria’s army chief. The report said the Shiite leader should be held responsible for refusing to call his members to order. (AP)

THREE POINTERS
Get ready for the NFL
Flipping the calendar
The regular season is still more than five weeks away, but that doesn’t mean to you have to visit Redskins camp to get your NFL fix. Here are three options.
For the first time this season, the Nationals were unable to meet manager Dusty Baker’s preseason expectation of winning at least 15 games each month, as they were 13-12 in July. While their 61-44 record entering Monday’s game at Arizona was surpassed in the National League only by the Cubs (63-41), Washington’s lead over the Marlins in the NL East was down to four games. Here are five storylines to monitor as the Nationals try in August to solidify their playoff position. BEN RABY (FOR EXPRESS)

Harper fighting to escape his slump
Strasburg aiming to maintain epic pace
Papelbon seeking a new role in bullpen
Schedule gives Ross time to get healthy
Is Turner the answer in the leadoff spot?
No one on the Nationals was happier to see the calendar flip than Bryce Harper. He had arguably the worst month of his career in July, hitting .176 with just five extra-base hits (four homers and only one double) and an on-base percentage of .303. He also endured an 0-for-19 drought. The month dragged his season average down to .235, although he maintains that he feels fine physically. A bounce-back month figures to be crucial for the Nationals to thrive.
As efficient as Stephen Strasburg looked in going 10-0 through the first three months of the season, a case can be made that he has been even stronger since returning July 3 from the 15-day disabled list. In four of his five starts in July, he pitched into the seventh inning while allowing no more than three hits. Strasburg (14-1, 2.68 ERA through July) entered Monday night’s game against the Diamondbacks needing a win to match his career high of 15.
With the acquisition of Mark Melancon to take over the closer’s role for the rest of 2016, the question is: What happens to Jonathan Papelbon? He pitched his way out of the closer’s job with a disastrous July that included a 7.88 ERA in 10 appearances. Moving him to the eighth-inning role sounds simple, but ask Drew Storen how that worked for him in 2015. Given the recent work of Shawn Kelley and Blake Treinen, Papelbon might turn into a middle reliever.
The Nationals play only eight games in the first 11 days of this month, so they won’t need a fifth starter until Aug. 16. That means they can be especially careful with Joe Ross (7-4, 3.49 ERA), who has been on the disabled list since July 3 with shoulder inflammation, although he made two minor-league rehab starts last week. Ross, 23, has thrown fewer than 100 big league innings this season, so there should be no worries about an innings limit when he returns.
The Nationals have survived despite meager help from their leadoff hitters. They entered August last in the majors with a .220 average and .266 on-base percentage in the No. 1 hole. Trea Turner, promoted from the minors a month ago, has looked better leading off than Ben Revere or Michael Taylor. In July, Turner hit .306 with six stolen bases in 11 games atop the lineup. And the middle infielder has looked comfortable playing his new position, center field.
Brett Favre retired five years ago? Yes, it’s been that long, and he heads the 2016 class that also includes Marvin Harrison, Tony Dungy and the late Ken Stabler.

At least year’s trade deadline, the Mets added power-hitting outfielder Yoenis Cespedes. At the deadline Monday, they acquired power-hitting outfielder Jay Bruce, left, from the Reds for infielder Dilson Herrera and minor league lefty Max Wotell. The Mets, whose offense is among the worst in the NL, thus put themselves in better position to chase the Nationals for the NL East title. Bruce, 29, is hitting .265 with 25 homers and 80 RBIs. The Mets could keep him next year for $13 million. (AP) U.S. men’s soccer team expected to play Ghana on Oct. 11 at RFK Stadium

Norman, Jackson enjoy 1-on-1 duels Wide receiver DeSean Jackson, far left, and cornerback Josh Norman spice up their battles with a little trash talk.
AP
REDSKINS Kirk Cousins unloaded a throw down the right sideline and watched as receiver DeSean Jackson and cornerback Josh Norman raced after the ball. When Jackson got a step to beat Norman for a touchdown, Cousins sprinted downfield to celebrate as fans in Richmond cheered. Jackson versus Norman is the must-watch matchup at Redskins training camp, whether it’s during 1-on-1 drills or 11-on-11s. The two stars revel in the competition and put on a show they hope will pay dividends when games begin.
“[We] are out there doing it, just trying to help each other get better and just strive for greatness,” Jackson said. “Have a little bit of fun, talking ... going back and forth a little bit.” Jackson is in the final year of his contract, while Norman is in
the first of the $75 million, fiveyear deal he signed after leaving the Panthers’ elite defense. Norman said he can learn from his duels with Jackson. “If he beats me on this play, I’m coming back trying to find out how he beat me,” Norman said.
Bills sign veteran running back Reggie Bush as likely backup to LeSean McCoy
“So I can come back and look at it like, ‘Let me beat him now.’ ” Norman thinks the work will help him adjust to facing the elite receivers of the NFC East, such as New York’s Odell Beckham Jr. and the Cowboys’ Dez Bryant. Meanwhile, dealing with Jackson in practice is a challenge. “Once I’m patient and understand what he wants to give me, then I can play to my strengths and use my tools to combat that,” Norman said. “But how many guys do we see in the NFL to try to go against like that?” STEPHEN WHYNO (AP)

D.C.’s hardest test drive I LIKE TO THINK OF MYSELF AS A PRETTY FIT PERSON. I run three times a week and weight train four times a week, all by my lonesome
at a gym or in the great outdoors. I never bothered with group fitness classes because I assumed they were all jumping around and dancing — not serious workouts. So when I’d hear people swear by barre classes or see SoulCycle plastered on someone’s clothing, it made me wonder if these intense, cultish fitness classes could live up to the hype — and their price tags. To find out, I tried four classes with the most outrageous claims I could find. Here’s how they went, from least difficult to most. ZAINAB MUDALLAL (EXPRESS)
4. Power Playground
3. Orange60
2. Sunday Sufferfest
1. solidcore
50-60 minutes; Mint, 1001 16th St. NW & 1724 California St. NW; drop-in class $35, mintdc.com.
60 minutes; Orangetheory Fitness, multiple locations; drop-in class $30, orangetheoryfitness.com.
75-100 minutes; Off Road Indoor Cycling, 905 U St. NW; drop-in class $22, offroaddc.com.
50 minutes; solidcore, multiple locations; first class $25, drop-in $37, off-peak $27, solidcore.co.
Claim: “A class like you’ve never experienced.”
Claim: “The most effective workout you have ever experienced.”
Claim: “The most intense workout you’ll ever have.”
What it is: Power Playground is a boot camp-style class with 10 strength-training stations. The first go-round, we did each strength station for 30 seconds followed by 30 seconds of cardio bursts, then another 30 seconds of strength. The second round, we did just the strength workout for a full minute. We ended with partner workouts.
What it is: Orange60 uses treadmill interval training, indoor rowing and weight training to push your heart rate into the “orange zone,” 84 to 91 percent of your maximum heart rate. Everyone wears a heart-rate monitor, your beats per minute appear on a screen and people can compete for the most “splat points” by staying in the orange zone.
Claim: That you’ll suffer in this Sunday-only “high-intensity, sweat-inducing, soul-searching, gut-wrenching” cycling class.
Most painful move: A full minute of burpees while holding onto a weighted medicine ball.
Most painful move: Rowing on the water rower, which uses a flywheel rotating in a circular water tank to create resistance.
Aftermath: I was sore almost everywhere. As fun as: Making the rounds on the playground at recess. Verdict: Despite my limited class experience, this one — held in the middle of the gym — felt familiar.
Aftermath: No matter how much I ate, I was hungry the rest of the day.
What it is: The class uses footage of pro cycling races to put you through a simulated racecourse. The videos, shown on a screen at the front of the studio, provide the target cadence riders should aim for during each phase, give cues on when to sprint and scold you if another cyclist passes. This particular class was made up of two videos, both Tour de France routes. Most painful move: The virtual uphill climb that is “The Wretched.” Aftermath: My butt was sore.
As fun as: Being in your own video game.
As fun as: Competing on “American Ninja Warrior.”
Verdict: “Effective” is vague, but I did feel like I got in a ton of cardio.
Verdict: I suffered. I soul-searched. It was indeed on a Sunday.
What it is: The solidcore workout is made up of slow, controlled movements, all done on a Pilates machine loaded with a moving platform, resistance springs, straps and cables. We did some body-numbing plank variations and leg workouts, and ended with weighted overhead tricep pullups and shoulder presses. People in the class were screaming because of how much it burned.
You can make up for sitting If you fear you’re doing irreparable damage to your body because of your desk job, there’s good news, according to a study published in the Lancet. You can make up for an increased risk of death due to a sedentary lifestyle by engaging in enough physical activity per day. How much is enough? There’s no one number, but researchers came up with a ratio that depends on the amount of sitting you do. If you sit four hours a day, you need to do at least 30 minutes of exercise to offset the health risks. An eight-hour workday of sitting means one hour of exercise. The numbers came from an analysis of the activity level and mortality rate of 1 million adults 45 and older. The activity can be as light as brisk walking or cycling, and can be spread out over an entire day. ARIANA EUNJUNG CHA (THE WASHINGTON POST)
Most painful move: The lunge/ hamstring curl combo. My legs and glutes were shaking and seizing. Aftermath: I was sore in places I didn’t even know I had muscles. As fun as: A deep-tissue massage. Verdict: The hardest workout I’ve ever done. I was surprised I survived.

fit+wellness His exes never really go away Q. My boyfriend of almost two years still keeps in contact with ex-girlfriends. I have repeatedly told him it makes me uncomfortable, but he argues that he doesn’t want to end friendships that he has built with them postrelationship. I have tried to let it go, but it bothers me to my core. Am I overreacting? BEN CLAASSEN III (FOR EXPRESS)
HEARTBROKEN
DR. ANDREA BONIOR | BAGGAGE CHECK
I need meds, and he’s being a pill Q. I am 19 and on medication for ADHD, and have been since I was a child. It works for me and I am doing well in college. Without it I am a mess. But my boyfriend is always saying I don’t really need it. When we’re on vacation he even hides it (playfully) or jokes that he’s going to replace it with something and I wouldn’t know the difference. I feel very frustrated with him. ANNOYED, DC I’d worry about a guy who considers himself your psychiatrist and belittles your mental health needs. He even “jokes” about tampering with your medication! At best, it shows a lack of empathy; at worst, it’s downright controlling. Even if this started as goodnatured teasing and grew out of hand, it’s remarkably disrespectful and condescending.
Will he always scrutinize the validity of your health practices? Will he always jump to serious judgments without having the expertise to do so? I’m hopeful that perhaps you haven’t told him how much it bothers you — though that could be a troubling sign on its own — and when you do, he’ll let up. But if he doesn’t seem to get it, that’s a serious problem.
People have a right to healthy friendships, with reasonable respect for their partners’ comfort. The fact that he keeps in touch with multiple exes seems to me a good sign: It doesn’t sound like he has particularly high intimacy with just one. It also speaks highly that he chose partners (including you!) for true compatibility rather than just sexual attraction. I urge you to dig deeper about why this bothers you. Are there other aspects of his behavior that make you insecure? Are there characteristics of his exes that you feel you can’t offer him? Maybe mutually establishing boundaries can make you feel better — he doesn’t text with them at night, for instance. I also wonder whether you’d be willing to try to form friendships with them yourself — a potential win-win for everyone.

This summer’s radio is full of bummers There’s no song of this summer, and we have current events to blame MUSIC If you weren’t tipped off by the bullets, the bombs, the dangerous mosquitoes, the heat dome, the glacial melt, the leaks, the hacks or the demagogue growling for law and order, we’re living through one of the ugliest summers in modern memory. And yet there’s an exclamation point at the end of our earliest contender for song of the summer: Justin Timberlake’s “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” JT is dancing in the sky, our republic is in a free fall, and it feels like the season’s brightest pop song is being shouted at us from another world. For a song about happiness, it’s depressing. So if “Can’t Stop the Feeling!” is too joyful to be this summer’s song, what is it? What’s the song that will live on as representative of the hottest months of 2016? There’s Drake’s “One Dance,” which is proof that the perennially inconsolable millionaire has finally run out of musical fuel.

narrator from the comfort of his woe. So in that sense, “One Dance” approximates the exhaustion of living through the summer of 2016, but not the unease. Sia’s “Cheap Thrills” — the song that just stole the No. 1 spot on the Billboard singles chart from “One Dance” — suffers from similar deficiencies. “I don’t need no money, as long as I can feel the beat,” Sia declares over a beat that tries to gallop, but only drags. Shouldn’t songs about wanting to dance make us want to dance? A lot of people on the radio today don’t even want to sound like people anymore. Rihanna clearly
knows how to sing like her lungs are on fire, but on “This Is What You Came For,” producer Calvin Harris transforms her voice into a fit of decorative digital hiccups. Similar artificial vocal spasms occur to varying degrees of dehumanization on “Gold” by Kiiara and “Never Forget You” by Zara Larsson and MNEK. It’s unlikely, but the song of the summer might drop out of the sky next weekend. If not, the application window reopens on Memorial Day. In the meantime, there’s an endless surplus of new music out there for us to bury our brains in. CHRIS RICHARDS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

“It seems the pocket Constitution is a weapon wielded by both sides.”” KIM SOFFEN, at washingtonpost.com, notes the impact of Khizr Khan — the father of a fallen Muslim U.S. soldier, Capt. Humayun Khan — wavingg a pocket-size Constitution in the air during his speech Thursday at the Democratic National Convention. In the days since his speech, sales of pocket Constitutions have soared, and a $1 edition of the document published by the National Center for Constitutional Studies has becomee the second-most popular book on Amazon. Google searches for the document went up more than tenfold Friday, compared with the daily average. Pocket Constitutions have been notably used by Republicans,, especially at rallies for the Tea Party movement.

“Sensitive photos ... [are] just one bad smartphone swipe (or hack) away from going public.” KASHMIR HILL, at fusion.net, reacts
to the brouhaha over Draymond Green of the Golden State Warriors uploading a naked photo of his groin to his public Snapchat story Sunday. Green, who is competing in the Summer Olympics, at first tweeted that he had been hacked, but then admitted he had meant to send the photo as a private message.

“Melania Trump’s nude photos are two decades old, and so is the mindset that led the New York Post to publish them.” HEIDI STEVENS, at chicagotribune.com, on the newspaper’s Sunday front page, which featured a full-page naked photo of a then 25-yearold Melania Trump with the headline “The Ogle Office.” It and other nude photos of the former model published on the paper’s inside pages came from a 1995 photo shoot for a French men’s magazine.

“It seems sort of backhanded to endorse Clinton by reminding viewers of one of the worst things about her 2008 primary campaign … but a win’s a win.” MATTHEW DESSEM, at slate.com, on

TODAY: We should have plenty of sunshine, especially in the morning. During the afternoon, some clouds will bubble up and a few may produce showers and storms (20-30 percent chance).

NOT MUCH
On Australia’s “The Kyle and Jackie O Show” this week, Britney Spears was asked whom she’d rather sit next to on a long flight: Taylor Swift or Katy Perry. Spears chose Swift, “because I’ve never met her.” Fans noted that there’s photographic evidence of their having met twice: once at the MTV Video Music Awards in 2008 and one time earlier, before Swift became famous.

Designer Rachel Roy and the Los Angeles Police Department believe Beyonce’s rabid fan base, the Beyhive, is behind a hack of Roy’s Gmail and iCloud accounts. Beyonce fans still speculate that Roy is the woman Beyonce is referring to in her latest album, “Lemonade,” as having slept with her husband, Jay Z. TMZ reported that Roy called police in April, just days after “Lemonade” dropped, saying that she had been hacked. Roy wrote in her filing that she believes the Beyhive is behind it. The LAPD has search warrants to investigate whoever is behind the hack, according to TMZ. (EXPRESS)
