Each side quickly ruled the other's approach unacceptable, leaving a solution a remote possibility. Unless Democrats capitulate, "We're going to be at an impasse and we will have earned even greater disdain from the American people than we already have," Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said. (AP) Tucson, Ariz. A governor was moved to tears, across the country a mayor fretted about disease and crime. Around the U.S., the challenge of housing tens of thousands of unaccompanied Central American migrant children is forcing an emotional, uncomfortable and politically treacherous conversation on policymakers at every level. In the weeks and months since large numbers of migrant children began showing up in the Rio Grande Valley, feder- al officials have turned to far-away states in the search for places to keep the children while the government figures out what to do with them. The crisis has been especially fraught for Democratic governors, who are balancing alliances with President Barack Obama's administration, logistical complications and competing interests among immigration opponents and advocates. "It is a no-win situation for any governor politically," said Bill Richardson, a Democrat and the former governor of New Mexico. Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick choked back tears last week as he talked about how his religious faith was driving him to propose two sites in his state to shelter the children. Patrick compared the children fleeing Central America to the victims of the Holocaust. "My inclination is to remember what happened when a ship full of Jewish children tried to come to the United States in 1939 and the United States turned them away, and many of them went to their deaths in Nazi concentration camps," he said. Others are reacting differently. In Artesia, N.M., Mayor Phil- Smugglers Find Market in Migrants The Costs Bringing people to U.S. illegally is big business for 'coyotes' Migration experts and smugglers who charge from $4,000 to $10,000 to move Central Americans to the U.S. say these are some of the payments that must be made during the trip: Tecun Uman, Guatemala Guide who makes trip: $500-$600 Boatmen: $1.50 to cross Suchiate River from Guatemala, at left Lodging: $11.50 a room Central American gang: At least $100 to board Mexican freight train known as "The Beast," at bottom left Mexican police and immigration officials: $230 to $540 to pass; $25 to $40 a person to free detained migrant Drug cartels: $250 to $300 for Mexican migrant, $500 to $700 for Central American, plus 10 percent fee per smuggler to cross to U.S. border Boatmen: $100 to cross Rio Grande into U.S. Drivers: $150 for ride from Rio Grande to stash house; $200 for ride to Houston EDUARDO VERDUGO PHOTOS (AP) The man nursed a late-morning beer at a bar near the Suchiate River that separates Guatemala from Mexico and answered a question about his human smuggling business with a question: "Do you think a coyote is going to say he's a coyote?" Dressed as a migrant in shorts and sandals but speaking like an entrepreneur, he then described shipments of tens of thousands of dollars in human cargo from the slums of Honduras and Guatemala to cities across the United States. "It's business," he said. "Sometimes, business is very good." Judg i ng by t he d r a mat ic increase in the number of minors apprehended in the United States in recent months, it seems the human smuggling business from Central America is booming. The vast majority of migrants who enter the U.S. illegally do so with the help of a network of smugglers known as "coyotes," so named for the scavengers that prowl the border. It is a high-risk, often highyield business estimated to gen- erate $6.6 billion a year for smugglers along Latin America's routes to the U.S., according to a 2010 United Nations report. The smugglers are profiting from the rising violence in gang- ridden cities of Central America, and the yearning of families to be reunited; parents often head north to fi nd work and save money to send for their children, sometimes years later. lip Burch found himself mediating between federal authorities and residents who felt they hadn't been told enough about a federal building being retrofitted to hold migrants. The townspeople, he said, worried about health problems and crime, and about a possible population explosion in his town of 11,000. Even though federal officials said immigrants would either be deported or reunited with families elsewhere, Burch frets that the facility would release people into his town, refill, then release them again. "Our community cannot support 2,000-3,000 new residents overnight," he said. MANUEL ROIG-FR ANZIA, WESLEY LOWERY AND NIR AJ CHOKSHI (THE WASHINGTON POST ) Many of the children who traveled to the U.S. recently said they did so after hearing they would be allowed to stay. Some say coyotes helped spread the rumor to drum up new business following a huge drop in Mexicans migrating to the U.S. Arrests of migrants on the southwestern U.S. border dropped from about 1.1 million annually a decade ago to 415,000 last year. Immigrants' rights advocates say they are seeing more children from Central America who are fleeing gang recruitment and violence. Because of that, some smugglers say they are in the service business. "The most important thing is to help these people," said one smuggler who charges $2,500 for the trip from the Guatemalan border to the U.S. border. There, he gives migrants fake Mexican ID cards and makes them learn the first stanza of the Mexican national anthem before handing them off to another smuggler. Hopefully, if they are apprehended in the U.S., they'll only be sent back to Mexico, where they can try again, he said. "The coyote is essential," he said. "If you don't have a compass, you can get lost." E.

Demonstrators marched through the streets on Tuesday to demand justice for Eric Garner, who died in police custody. "It ends today," the crowd chanted.

"I don't think it's a necessary police tactic," City Councilman Andy King said Tuesday. City Councilwoman Inez Barron added that such enforcement "leads to confrontations like this." Garner's arrest was captured on amateur video that appears to show an officer putting the asth- matic, 350-pound father of six in a banned chokehold after he refused to be handcuffed. He can be heard yelling, "I can't breathe!" as several officers take him down. Police Commissioner William Bratton vowed on Tuesday to stick with the Broken Windows program. "There's no change in that focus at all," he said. "That's a key part of what we're doing." (AP) New York Eric Garner, who died in police custody last week after he was put in an apparent chokehold, was suspected of committing the relatively minor crime of selling loose, untaxed cigarettes on the street. The encounter was an unintended consequence of the New York Police Department's embrace of the policing tactic called "Broken Windows" — the idea that going after smaller crimes such as public drinking or graffiti helps stop greater disorder such as assault and murder. But Garner's death has put Broken Windows under renewed scrutiny, with some lawmakers and experts saying the decades-old theory no longer applies to a city with JOHN MINCHILLO (AP) Before 202.452.1332 24th&ISt.NW• 301.738.6766 • 703.533.1025 • www.vitasurgical.com 54% In Brief The proportion of Americans who believe that climate change is mostly human-caused, according to a Global Trends 2014 survey.

As families honor Flight 17, Ukrainian rebels shoot down jets Young Crash Victim Couldn't Let Go Eindhoven, Netherlands Some of the victims of the Malaysian jetliner shot down over Ukraine returned Wednesday to Dutch soil in 40 wooden coffins, solemnly carried to 40 identical hearses, flags at half-staff flapping in the wind. The nearly silent ceremony contrasted sharply with the boom of shells and shattered glass in eastern Ukraine as pro-Russia rebels fought to hang onto territory and shot down two Ukrainian fighter jets. The bold attack showed that the separatists are not shying away from shooting at the skies despite international outrage at the downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, of which they are suspected of attacking with a surface-to-air missile, killing 298. Families of passengers moved to a new stage of grief Wednesday as the bodies began arriving in the Netherlands, the country that bore the heaviest death toll.

"If I have to wait five months for identification, I can do it," said Silene Fredriksz-Hoogzand, whose son, Bryce, and his girlfriend, Daisy Oehlers, died in the crash. "Waiting while the bodies were in the field and in the train was a nightmare." From the airport, the hearses drove under military police escort to the city of Hilversum, where forensic experts waited at a military barracks to carry out the task of identifying the remains. Prime Minister Mark Rutte said many bodies could be identified quickly, but some families may have to wait weeks. Two more planeloads of victims will be flown today to Eindhoven for a similar ceremony, the Dutch government said. DOROTHEE THIESING AND MST YSL AV CHERNOV (AP) In a bedroom in a townhouse near Amsterdam, Miguel Panduwinata reached out for his mother. "Mama, Miguel may I hug you?" Samira Calehr wrapped her arms around her 11-year-old, who'd been oddly agitated for days, peppering her with questions about death. The next day, she would drop Miguel and his brother at the airport so they could catch Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, the first leg of their trip to Bali to visit their grandmother. Her normally happy, well-traveled boy should have been excited. But something was off. A day earlier, Miguel had burst out: "How would you choose to die? What would happen to my body if I was buried? Would I not feel anything because our souls go back to God?" And now, Miguel refused to release his mother from his grasp, so she held him all night. Today she grapples with the what-ifs and the question: How could he have known? (AP) Israel, Hamas Battle Over Public Opinion Jerusalem Beyond the boom of Israeli airstrikes and the stream of rockets fired from Gaza, Israel and Hamas also are battling to control the message emanating from this latest Israeli-Palestinian conflagration. Using videos, Twitter, text messages, leaflets and phone calls, both sides have attempted to direct the tone of the fighting — for their own public, their opponent's population and for a global audience. Propaganda and psychological warfare are nothing new in battle, but technology and social media have exponentially increased the ability of each side to penetrate their audiences. Addressing an international On Wednesday The U.S. announced signs of progress in cease-fire talks, but prospects for a quick end to the fighting were dim as Palestinian families fled fierce battles in southern Gaza and the death toll rose to 695 Palestinians and 34 Israelis. The U.N.'s top human rights official demanded that both sides in the two-week war in the Mideast refrain from indiscriminate attacks on civilians, warning that violations may amount to war crimes.

(AP) audience, Israel has tried to make its case that it is defending its citizens from unprovoked attacks. Hamas has pointed to the high civilian death toll from Israel's onslaught. Israel and Hamas are addressing the other's populations as well. In phone calls that the Israeli military makes to Gazans to tell them to evacuate before a strike, the recorded script also tells them that Hamas is using them as human shields. Hamas has sent text messages directly to Israelis, warning them that the group will continue firing rockets until its demands are met. "This is a war over public opinion," said Yuval Dror, an expert in digital communications. But there are limits to the effect of media campaigns. There's little sign that Israel's efforts to turn Gazans against Hamas have had any success. And Israelis hardly seem intimidated. Hamas messages in Hebrew have become the butt of Israeli jokes online, with one Israeli offering grammar tips for a Hebrew tweet on the feed of Hamas' military wing. And despite attempts to sway world opinion, Israelis know that continuing images of dead civilians will undermine support. "Public opinion has a certain patience limit," said Avital Leibovich, a former Israeli military spokeswoman. "There is a certain point where legitimacy begins to be undermined by difficult images."

Middle Schoolers 'Meet Washington' Summer program introduces students to city's professions A group of D.C. students got a close look at the construction of the National Museum of African American History and Culture this week, with the senior project manager giving an overview of the design and building phases. But when Charles Yetter started taking questions, the middle school students from Browne Education Campus were mostly curious about him. They peppered him with inquiries about his career as an engineer. BILL O'LEARY (THE WASHINGTON POST) Washington Middle school students learn about architecture and engineering on a recent trip. "How did college or training prepare you for this job?" asked one student. Others chimed in: Do you love your job? When will you retire? How many women work at your firm? What if you get fired? The students are part of a pilot summer-school program called "For too many of our students, D.C. is a much different place than Washington." — K AYA HENDERSON, D.C. SCHOOLS CHANCELLOR, ON THE PROGRAM'S GOAL OF BEING A BRIDGE TO THE PROFESSIONAL SIDE OF THE CITY "D.C. Meets Washington" that introduces D.C. public school students to promising careers in the city and gets them thinking about life after high school. The program debuted as the school system plans to open seven new career academies in six high schools this fall with a focus on information technology, hospitality and engineering. The new summer-school program is designed to give students an early introduction to these and other fields. Educators say that high school is often too late. It takes three years to complete requirements for some specialty academies, and students who set their sites on engineering after college, for example, need to have a strong basis in early math. The five-week program started with an introduction to government jobs and a tour of the Capitol by Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton. During IT Week, students visited an incubator for technology startups. Next week, they are scheduled to tour the new high school academies and colleges in the area. M I C H A E L A L I S O N C H A N D L E R (THE WASHINGTON POST ) Be Confident Bring your style home.

Driving Do crashes happen more often while drivers are playing with a pet or eating a sandwich? How about the times of day with the highest number of collisions? The District Department of Transportation has the answers in a highly detailed report completed in March and made available last week to The Washington Post. Howard University researchers working for DDOT analyzed just about every aspect of the District's traffic accidents from 2010 through 2012. Traffic enthusiasts can dive into the entire report at washingtonpost.com. Before you start redrawing your commute to avoid the trouble spots on this map, remember that a host of other factors influence car accidents. Intersections with the highest crash rate relative to overall traffic volume 5 4 3 1 2 7 4 5 2 1 8 6 6 3 7 7 The most dangerous intersections are not necessarily the ones where there are the most accidents 8 Intersections with the highest total number of crashes 1.

Minnesota Ave. and Benning Road NE 7. Fairlawn Ave. and Pennsylvania Ave. SE 8. Minnesota Ave. and Pennsylvania Ave. SE JULIE Z AUZMER (THE WASHINGTON POST ) As D.C. grows, car crashes are up, too In 2012, the most recent year covered in the report, 18,428 crashes were reported — more than all but one year since 2001. Injuries, however, have stayed somewhat flat in recent years. Less than 30 percent of those crashes (5,258) led to injuries. Nineteen people died in car crashes in 2012, down from 25 in 2010 and 32 in 2011. 2 Men are worse drivers than women 65% Men were the drivers in about 65 percent of all crashes in the study. There's no way to tell exactly how many men and women are on the roads in D.C. but in the country as a whole, men and women hold driver's licenses in roughly equal numbers. 3 Crashes involving pedestrians and bikers are on the rise The number of crashes involving pedestrians went up from 777 in 2010 to 919 in 2012. Bicycle crashes rose in that period too from 494 to 642. While the pedestrian crashes were split almost equally by gender and distributed across the city, bicyclists involved in accidents were disproportionately male — roughly 77 percent. And only one bike crash in 2012 happened east of the Anacostia. 4 VMT in this chart stands for vehicle miles traveled. For every 100 million miles that cars traveled on American roads in 2012, 80 people in the country as a whole are injured. But in D.C. 200 people were injured for every 100 million miles traveled. Conversely, 1.13 people died in 2012 per 100 million miles traveled. In D.C., the rate was far lower, at 0.52. 5 4 Drivers in D.C. are injured more often Most crashes don't involve violations More than half the accidents in the study involved no road violations, but distractions are a big problem. Driver inattention was the single most common contributing factor in all three years. Cellphones were the most frequently identified distraction. Interacting with pets caused 11 crashes in 2012. And reading caused 22 — more than eating (13) and personal grooming (7) . The calmest hours on weekdays are the most dangerous on weekends 6 It isn't surprising that traffic during the wee hours of the night is drastically different on weekdays and weekends. Take a look at the shapes of these overlapping graphs, showing the hours when crashes occurred. 8 In most crashes, cars were simply driving straight ahead Crash injuries in D.C. compared to the U.S. 240 220 D.C. 200 Injuries per 100 million VMT 1 1. 14th St. and U St. NW; 2.

First St. and Union Station Plaza NE Almost 50 percent of the time, drivers were going straight when collisions occurred. The most common type was side-swiping, followed by rear-ending. About 10 percent of side-swipe crashes caused injuries, while rear-enders were often more severe. Worse were headon collisions — in almost half of 463 occurrences in 2012, someone got hurt. In three, someone died. 180 160 140 120 100 U.S. 80 60 40 20 0 6 2004 2005 2006 2007 2008 2009 2010 2011 2012 What time of day crashes happened 1,200 Weekdays 2012 1,000 Weekends 2012 800 600 400 2010 6,156 1,483 1,050 820 718 Move from parked position 364 372 Slowing/Stopping 265 Merging 227 Making U-turn 247 Parked 212 Overtaking 217 Stop/stand traffic lane 150 Ran off road 126 Avoid 12,407 Total Drivers Action Going straight Turning left Changing lanes Turning right Backing 9 200 00 01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08 09 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 a.m. 2012 6,546 1,610 1,115 991 793 466 308 295 233 290 158 279 131 91 13,306 Speed kills 3% Speeding caused 3 percent of crashes in D.C. in 2012 — but 21 percent of traffic deaths were linked to speeding.

Try spritzing a little lemon juice on the upholstery, says Tim Grove, author of "A Grizzly in the Mail and Other Adventures in American History." "You'll still have to drive with your windows open and your nose plugged for a few weeks," he says. The story of how Grove came Grove to be in possession of a ripe grizzly bear skin (which people later got to pet at a traveling Lewis and Clark exhibit) is one of the many anecdotes in his new book, which he'll be discussing at Politics and Prose on Saturday. "Grizzly" traces Grove's 20-year (and counting) career as a museum educator at the National Museum of American History, among other institutions. But don't call it a memoir. "I use my experiences as a jumping-off point to talk about history," he says. In addition to giving museum visitors tactile links to the past, Grove engages them by challenging oft-repeated American history. Here are a few myths he takes on in the book.

(Van Ness) MYTH: Eli Whitney invented the cotton gin Cotton gins were already in wide use before Eli Whitney's came along in 1793. He refined an existing design, adding wire teeth to one of the rollers — an idea some historians believe he stole from slaves. Another inventor, Hodgen Holmes, applied for a patent for a different type of gin five years before Whitney did, but Whitney completed his application first. Whitney's business partner later sued Holmes, claiming the sawtooth gin had been Whitney's invention. SMITHSONIAN NATIONAL MUSEUM OF AMERICAN HISTORY PHOTOS Go see: The cotton gin that Whitney used in his many patent battles, in the National Museum of American History's "American Stories" exhibit. MYTH: Sacagawea guided the Lewis and Clark expedition Sacagawea, the Shoshone wife of a French translator hired by Lewis and Clark, was an unpaid member of the expedition. She helped identify edible plants and did a little translation, but Lewis and Clark largely navigated the usual way — with maps and compasses. "People think they were going into uncharted territory, but there were maps, though they weren't always very detailed," Grove says. Go see: Lewis and Clark's silver-plated compass, in the National Museum of American History's "American Presidency" exhibit. MYTH: Betsy Ross sewed the first American flag There are many problems with the oft-told story that Philadelphia seamstress Betsy Ross consulted with a Congressional flag committee, headed by George Washington, to design the American flag in 1776. For instance, there was no such committee and George Washington wasn't a member of Congress. The story didn't crop up until Ross' grandson began telling it, about 100 years later. The real designer of the flag was probably Francis Hopkinson, a Congressman from New Jersey, who asked for (and never received) wine in payment. Go see: The first flag has been lost to time, but you can see the flag that inspired "The Star-Spangled Banner" at the National Museum of American History.

TV theme songs "are instant time machines; they can … transport you back to childhood." — STEPHEN GREGORY SMITH, ONE HALF OF THE TEAM PERFORMING "GOOD TIMES: A TV THEME SONG CABARET" Egler: We were very surprised feel really young. Egler: Or really old. A lot of shows today don't have theme songs with words, it seems. HBO You're probably humming the theme song from "The Golden Girls," "M*A*S*H," "Sex and the City" or "Green Acres" (clockwise from top left) right now. that some of the songs we thought were instrumental had lyrics, like the theme song from "M*A*S*H." When those words are in there, it's a totally different song. CBS It was B, right? (If you got A, kudos! Have a peach!) Maria Egler and Stephen Gregory Smith showcase the unforgettable boob-tube tunes that have invaded our hearts and living rooms with their production "Good Times: A TV Theme Song Cabaret," a one-off show that's part of Signature Theatre's Sizzlin' Summer Nights cabaret series, which wraps this weekend. How on earth did you get this idea? Egler: Well, I'm looking at this Egler: I've been kicking this list and it's 70 songs deep at the moment. You have to keep in mind they're 45 seconds long. Smith: We're doing a lot of medleys. There's a game show section, a children's cartoon section — we'll group them and then our music director, Bill Yanesh, will help us blend new medleys. Egler: I'm pretty vain but I don't need someone to clap for me around for five years. Stephen and I did a cabaret this winter, and we worked really well together, so I asked him if he wanted to do it. Smith: I didn't even flinch when she asked. [TV themes] are instant time machines; they can easily transport you back to childhood. They can make you INDIES & ARTIES Smith: It's not necessarily a new trend; there were a lot of TV shows that had a [lyricfree] theme song: "Lassie," "Bewitched," "The Cosby Show."

'I Origins': Writer-director Mike Cahill's first feature, 2011's "Another Earth," was a freaky sci-fi mind-bender about us finding an identical planet (like, totally identical. Like, there's another you on it.). It was an intriguing if imperfect film that didn't get the press or success it deserved. Now he's back with the better "I Origins," opening locally Friday, about a doctor (Michael Pitt, left) who loves eyeballs (saying more would wreck the fun). It's a fake-out of a film that starts like a rom-com and ends up examining spirituality and science in really innovative ways; Cahill's story manages to be somewhat plausible despite its impossibility. It's worth skipping a summer blockbuster to see "I Origins" — just see it soon in case it suddenly disappears. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (E XPRESS) PARAMOUNT/MGM see here!" I think as you get into the '80s it takes on qualities of the time period and you would approach them as serious songs. That's not saying we're going to sit there and make you cry with "Thank You for Being a Friend." Wouldn't you like to get away ... and see a TV-tune cabaret? FILM RIFFS Oh, Gods! "Hercules" uses his big muscles to storm the big screen Friday. While Hercules isn't the first god or god-ish character in a film, Dwayne Johnson's (above) version certainly ranks as one of the most bicep-y film heroes of Greek or Roman mythology. More normal-sized examples are below. KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS) 1 Jason Jason is just a human, but some of his best friends are gods. 1963's "Jason and the Argonauts" featured a stop-motion animated battle that, at the time, was amazing. Now it's kind of adorable. 2 Percy Jackson Percy is the present-day teenage son of Poseidon in 2010's "Percy Jackson and the Olympians: The Lightning Thief" and last year's "Sea of Monsters." It must be really hard to break curfew if your dad is a god. 3 Zeus et al. Laurence Olivier played the king of the gods in 1981's "Clash of the Titans," and Liam Neeson took over the role in the 2010 remake.

Rarefied Air Guitar D.C.'s Doug Stroock is about to faux rock, and we salute him Music Doug Stroock puts on his metallic spandex booty shorts just like everyone else: one hairy, muscular leg at a time. It's all in a day's work — and what the world expects — when you're the second-best air guitarist on the planet. D.C.'s Stroock — or Doug "The Thunder" Stroock — is one of roughly 400 competitors in this year's U.S. Air Guitar Championships and one of thousands vying to compete in the 19th annual Air Guitar World Championship in Oulu, Finland, next month. "I guarantee if you go to an air guitar show, you will have fun," Stroock says. "If you do not have fun, you are not a fun person." Stroock is a fun person, but even for the reigning No. 2 air guitarist in the world, it's a long way to the top. To represent the U.S. in the Olympics of air-shredding, Stroock's '80s glam-rock persona will first compete in Saturday night's MidAtlantic semifinals showdown at the 9:30 Club, where he'll take on other hopefuls who've made it through citywide qualifiers. Saturday's top three finishers advance to the finals, where there can be only one. The U.S. champion then takes on representatives from the rest of world in the art of air-shredding in loincloths and stretchy fabrics. (The finals also include a Dark Horses' Qualifying round, offering those who didn't win their national tourney one last chance to compete in the finals.) How does one quantify this international pastime? Judges — former air guitar champions, comedians and musicians — award points based on technical ability (are you playing in time?), stage presence (do you dominate the crowd?), and "airness." ("It's like porn," Stroock says. "You know it when you see it.") Many participants practice their 60-second routines for months in order to place in the sport's four- Air Guitar 101 Practice Do it in front of a mirror. Do it with a mop. Do it for five or 10 minutes a day, at minimum. Characters Welcome Pick a song and a costume that match your persona; a cool name doesn't hurt. Hold It Like You Mean It Air guitars are scientifically double the size of a regular guitar. So go big and over the top when you're playing and never forget its placement and shape — this includes throwing it into the air. S.B. month season. "Between practice and working out, I'd say [I devote] maybe an hour and a half, two hours a day," Stroock says. "In non-air guitar season, it's zero." During the typical workday Stroock dons a suit at his own startup, Ideaism, and leads somewhat of a double life. The classically trained pianist, 39, looks like any other professional in the District but don't let that fool you; since 2011 he's grown a seasonal pornstache, purchased custom-made costumes off Etsy, and played through 60-second clips of songs as much as 600 times each. It's left him with enough stories to last a lifetime, like the night he was abducted by Russians at the world championship, or the time "If you go to an air guitar show, you will have fun. If you do not have fun, you are not a fun person." a window washer caught him air guitaring naked in the living room ("As the guy came down we slowly locked eyes," he says). Come Saturday, he'll have one more story to share after he takes the stage at 9:30 Club. "[D.C.] is one of the top air guitar cities," Stroock says. "People love air guitar here." Come Saturday, you will too.

The gray-striped kitten, usually a whirl of motion, sat listlessly at the edge of the bed, his oversized head d roopi ng onto his fuzzy white tummy. Jasper's panicked owner, Dav id Gr i m m, cradled the kitten in his arms and rushed to the vet. The diagnosis: acute renal failure. One of Jasper's kidneys had stopped working, and the other one was sputtering out. The prognosis MONTY SLOAN/WOLF PARK Books David Grimm makes nice with Dharma the wolf at Wolf Park in Battle Ground, Ind. was not good at first, but thanks to a small army of veterinary specialists, Jasper pulled through. "It cost us $3,000, but it was totally worth it," Grimm says. "My wife and I couldn't afford to give each other presents at Christmas that year, so we just passed Jasper back and forth."

"Twenty years ago, you couldn't have spent that much money. There weren't the veterinary nephrologists, the CT machines," he says. It wasn't long ago that Americans considered cats and dogs too stinky and unsanitary to let inside, Grimm says. Now pets are considered members of the family. "The invention of flea shampoo and kitty litter made a huge difference," he says. Here are more milestones in the history of pet-human relations.

Ancient people on the island of Cyprus imported wildcats from the mainland to control their rodent population. As with wolves, the felines least fearful of people flourished, interbreeding until they became domesticated cats. 4,000 B.C. Cats began showing up in ancient Egyptian art. Felines were revered, and some were given elaborate burials. GUILLAUME BLANCHARD (WIKIMEDIA COMMONS) 146 B.C. The Romans conquered Greece, and they were dog people.

Wolves trailed hunter-gatherers and ate the scraps the humans left behind. Over generations, the leastskittish ventured closer to camps, eating better, living longer and having more pups. These wolves evolved into dogs. TIME FOR THREE SONNY LANDRETH 1947 Kitty litter was invented, boosting the popularity of house cats. 1233 A.D. Pope Gregory IX proclaimed that cats were incarnations of Satan. Europeans slaughtered them by the millions. Without cats to kill rats ridden with bubonic-plague-carrying fleas, the Black Death swept Europe unchecked. 2000 Boulder, Colo., began using "guardian" instead of or in addition to "owner" in its pet-related legislation. 1822 The first meaningful animal welfare law was passed in the United Kingdom. 2013 Americans spent $55.7 billion on their pets, including $14.4 billion on veterinary care. 1880s More people invite dogs indoors, thanks in part to the invention of medicated soap. 2014 South Dakota became the final U.S. state to pass a felony-level anticruelty law.

Not Wedded To One Menu A local caterer expresses his creativity with a supper club If you're planning a wedding, there are a number of reasons to choose Eat & Smile as your caterer: Ingredients are sourced locally; dishes are plated restaurant-style (never preheated); and recipes are developed with love by founder Oliver Friendly, a fourth-generation Washingtonian who previously worked at PS7 and Hook. Here's one other reason: "I've had a zero divorce rate for over 200 weddings in five years," Friendly says playfully. If wedding bells aren't in your future, you can still get a taste of Friendly's cooking via The Bespoke Kitchen, the supper club he's been hosting sporadically out of his Rhode Island Avenue catering kitchen for about a year now. Starting next month, he's increasing dinner service to two or three times a week. The multicourse meals for groups of up to 12 ($70 per person, plus $25 for beverage pairings, tax and tip included) give Friendly a chance to exercise his more creative side. "I wanted to have an outlet that wasn't somebody's wedding," he says. "A lot of times people want steak and potatoes and Caesar salad. They're not always open to smoked calf's liver." Bespoke Kitchen entrees have included veal tenderloin with scallop mashed potatoes and seared scallops with a roasted fennel puree, pistachios and a sour cherry chutney. "I really get to play," Friendly says. "I'm not t ied to one person's menu." HOLLEY SIMMONS (E XPRESS) Bespoke Kitchen, 2212 Rhode Island Ave. NE; 202270-1018, thebespokekitchendc.com.

Southside Rye IPA DENIZENS BREWING CO., SILVER SPRING Silver Spring has a new brew in town, and a new brewery, too. Denizens Brewing Co. opened last week with one house beer on tap: the Southside Rye IPA. Named after the brewery's South Silver Spring home, the beer pours an amber color with a thick head. Though hoppy and slightly bitter, with notes of grapefruit and pine, this is no hop bomb. At 7.2 percent, it's fairly easy to drink for an IPA, even if it gets sticky by the end. This is just the beginning for Denizens, which features a spacious outdoor beer garden (and an outdoor bar). For now, the beer garden and the upstairs taproom are open; next month, the BBQ Bus food truck will open a restaurant downstairs. Until then, you're free to bring your own food, or order takeout — last Saturday, a pizza delivery guy brought pies straight to the patio.

JOHN K BAND W/ THE U-LINERS FRIDAY AUG 1 TAUK & BIG SOMETHING SATURDAY AUG 2 FRI, JULY 25 START MAKING SENSE: SCOTT SUCHMAN TALKING HEADS TRIBUTE W/ HMFO: A HALL & OATES TRIBUTE Dinner Is Preserved Savory jams make their way onto supper menus this summer Jams. They're not just for biscuits or preserving the season's fruity bounty anymore. Local chefs are crafting jams from savory ingredients — and pairing them with dishes far from the expected breakfast pastry. At 701 Restaurant, the wild king salmon crudo ($14) is garnished with bitter orange puree, crispy salmon skin and a tangy fennel jam. "I like to complement my flavors with sweet, sour, salty and bitter, so [the fennel jam] seemed like the choice for me," chef Ben Lambert says. It's made with fresh fennel, Chartreuse (an herbal liqueur), ramp-infused pickling liquid, chili for slight heat and mustard seeds, which give the jam a pop reminiscent of caviar, Lambert says. At Evening Star, the fried brie and toasted brioche is paired with red pepper jam made with red bell peppers, a bit of jalapeno and fresh cayenne plucked from the restaurant's rooftop garden ($8). Chef Jim Jeffords was inspired by a childhood's worth of festive Southern gatherings, where red pepper jelly was typically served with cream cheese and Ritz crackers. "The pepper jelly has the sweet and the spice, which counter the fat of the cheese," he says. The green tomato jam at Firefly works in the same way — as a foil for a decadent dish. The restaurant's deep-fried mac and pimiento cheese fritters ($12) are served with tangy green tomato jam. Chef Todd Wiss uses the jam to add a sweet-and-sour note to the dish. At Teddy & The Bully Bar, a smoked carrot jam made with gooseberries adds a subtly sweet, slightly sour note to the summer salad ($8), which currently features thinly shaved zucchini and carrots with a light lemon and vanilla dressing. The jam's consistency is reminiscent of apple butter, thanks to the addition of agar-agar. "When you taste the jam, it's an enhancement," chef Demetrio Zavala says. "It's not anything that's just put there to look pretty."

There may not be a lot of high drama during this year's camp, but there are plenty of things to keep an eye on during the team's 20-day sojourn down south. ELLIOT T SMITH (FOR E XPRESS) 1. New Man in Charge 2. RGIII's Redemption It's been quite a roller coaster for Robert Griffin III as Washington's starting quarterback, but now that he's free from the Mike Shanahan regime will he take another step forward? Griffin's got an offensefriendly coach and an arsenal of weapons, so the onus will be on him to be the accurate, savvy passer he was during his rookie season and not the mechanically flawed one who went through a sophomore slump. 3. Has and Has-Nots In a surprise move, Jim Haslett was retained as the Redskins' defensive coordinator despite overseeing a porous unit that struggled with simple concepts like tackling. But Haslett is counting on a new roster of defensive coaches, improved years from linebackers Brian Orakpo and Ryan Kerrigan, and the development of middle linebacker Keenan Robinson to establish a strong front seven, because … 8. Hey Rookie! Washington didn't have a first-round pick in May's draft, but its first two selections, linebacker Trent Murphy and right tackle Morgan Moses, have a chance to make an impact. Murphy might have the tougher road, as he needs to fill out physically. Moses has a better chance to sneak into the lineup; his long arms make him tough to block, but he needs to improve his footwork. Guard Spencer Long could take advantage of uncertainty on the line with a strong camp as well. JOHN McDONNELL (THE WASHINGTON POST) By all accounts, new Redskins coach Jay Gruden acquitted himself well during his first few months on the job, saying all the right things and establishing solid relationships with his players. But now the hard part begins: Gruden will have to install his system, make tough decisions and prepare for the enormous pressure cooker that is Redskins football. He can't be any worse than Jim Zorn, right? 9. On the Mend 4. Safety First The Redskins' secondary was a disaster last season, and on paper, things aren't much better going into training camp. Washington signed veteran Ryan Clark to shore up the safety position, but there's a reason why the Steelers let him go. Brandon Meriweather hasn't lived up to his potential, Bacarri Rambo had a rough rookie season and Phillip Thomas is completely raw after missing last year. 5. Line of Fire While the offensive line cleared the way for another 1,200-yard season for running back Alfred Morris, it had issues keeping RGIII upright. The Redskins brought over left guard Shawn Lauvao and shifted Kory Lichtensteiger to center to try to fix the problems, but it feels like the only sure thing is Pro Bowl left tackle Trent Williams. Can Josh LeRibeus finally break through at guard? Will one of the Redskins' rookie linemen impress enough to start? 6. Receiver Roulette After searching for an impact receiver for years, the Redskins now seem to have an embarrassment of riches at the position. Pierre Garcon led the NFL in receptions last season, DeSean Jackson has game-breaking talent and Andre Roberts can also stretch the field. Throw in tight end Jordan Reed and the receiving corps is as strong as it's been in years. So what does this mean for veteran Santana Moss, oft-injured Leonard Hankerson or unheralded Aldrick Robinson? Someone figures to be the odd man out. One of Washington's major offseason pickups, defensive lineman Jason Hatcher, will miss the start of camp as he comes back from arthroscopic left knee surgery. His recovery bears watching because he could be a major upgrade on a line that's been hobbled by injury. Defensive end Stephen Bowen's status is also up in the air as he recovers from knee surgery. Reed appears healthy and a full season from the tight end could pay big dividends. 7. Special Delivery 10. Just for Kicks The Redskins' special teams units were historically awful last season. Players didn't want to be on special teams and former coach Keith Burns' schemes were full of holes, literally and figuratively. New coordinator Ben Kotwica brings a military background to the unit and players have responded to his enthusiasm and energy, which is a step in the right direction. After a revolving door of kickers, Kai Forbath established himself with his accuracy and consistency — he finished last year with 13 straight makes. However, Forbath's weak leg on kickoffs hurts field position, and with seventh-round pick Zach Hocker booming kicks out of the end zone in minicamp, Forbath could be in a major battle for his job. 16 | E X P R E S S | 0 7. 2 4 . 2 0 1 4 | T H U R S D AY Sports Nats' Late Rally Comes Up Short The Nationals' hot streak came to an unceremonious, ugly end Wednesday afternoon at Coors Field. Trash whipped around the warning track, fielders shielded their eyes from wind-blown dirt and rain dripped from a gun-metal gray sky. As conditions momentarily worsened late, so, too, did Washington's play. A s soon as t he sun broke through, though, the Nationals mounted a final charge that nearly toppled the Colorado Rockies. In the ninth inning of their 6-4 loss, 6 4 AP PHOTO Nationals Stephen Strasburg allowed four runs in 5⅓ innings and earned the loss Wednesday. the Nationals scored two runs with four consecutive two-out singles off closer LaTroy Hawkins, then loaded the bases when shortstop Josh Rutledge booted Adam LaRoche's groundball.

Rockies left-hander Jorge De La Rosa struck out 11 hitters over 71⁄3 innings, and still the Nationals created a chance to beat him in the seventh before an ill-timed, misplaced bunt foiled a rally. The Rockies added insurance runs late with the help of a sloppy throw to first following a strikeout. The Nationals had won six of seven, but hours after they placed Ryan Zimmerman on the disabled list, they fell flat. The Rockies slapped nine hits and scored four runs off Strasburg in 51⁄3 innings. His record dropped to 7-8. In 18 innings over his last three starts, the right-hander has allowed 23 hits and 10 earned runs. His season ERA has grown from 3.47 to 3.67, just shy of the NL average of 3.69. ADAM KILGORE (THE WASHINGTON POST ) MLB Nats Win Standoff The start of Wednesday's Nationals-Rockies game was delayed for nearly four minutes by a "National Anthem Standoff" between Washington's Aaron Barrett and Colorado's Brandon Barnes. The goal of the standoff — one of those weird but wonderful baseball traditions — is to be the last player to return to the dugout after the playing of the "StarSpangled Banner." After the home plate umpire whistled at and stared down Barnes, he gave in and headed toward his dugout. Barrett was victorious.

Zimmerman Goes on DL With slugger missing time, Nationals may explore trade options Nationals As the Nationals await their team doctor's evaluation of Ryan Zimmerman's MRI exam, they placed the veteran slugger on the 15-day disabled list with a right hamstring strain, called up infielder Zach Walters, braced for the possibility they will chase the pennant without one of their most indispensable players and prepared for potential contingencies. Nationals team physician Dr. Wiemi Douoguih has yet to interpret results from the MRI e x a m Z i m mer ma n re ceive d Wednesday morning. But when Zimmerman arrived in the clubhouse following the test, it did not portend an optimistic outlook. "It's actually a little worse," manager Matt Williams said. "When I spoke with him this morning, he hadn't had any treatment on it. When you're hot and it happens, it doesn't feel quite as bad as the next morning when you wake up. But we'll see what the results are." Zimmerman already missed 44 games this year after he broke his right thumb. The Nationals have gone 33-19 and averaged 4.9 runs when Zimmerman plays. Without him, they've gone 22-24 and scored 3.5 runs per game. Having regained his timing coming off his first DL stint, Zimmerman had been one of the Nationals' top hitters, batting .362/.418/.569 with two homers in 58 July at-bats. Zimmerman's injury could spur the Nationals to explore a trade prior to the July 31 trade deadline. Because of Anthony Rendon's abil- ity to play both second and third base, the Nationals could seek a second baseman or a third baseman on the trade market. "Injuries certainly help you make decisions on what you would want or need," Williams said. Martin Prado and Aaron Hill, both of whom Williams coached with the Arizona Diamondbacks, would fit the Nationals' needs. Still, general manager Mike R izzo seemed content to use Danny Espinosa as Zimmerman's replacement. "We've got a third baseman," Rizzo said. "We've got Zim signed for a long time. We're not worried about filling Zim's shoes, which would be almost impossible to fill in a trade scenario, anyways. We like the team we have. We got where we're at with Danny playing meaningful innings." ADAM KILGORE (THE WASHINGTON POST ) Felton Pleads Guilty: Mavericks point guard Raymond Felton pleaded guilty Wednesday in a New York gun case, taking a plea deal that involved admitting a felony but spares him jail. Felton pleaded guilty to attempted criminal possession of a weapon and criminal possession of a firearm. "Yes, sir," Felton said. "I apologize. I realize what I did was wrong." He was immediately sentenced to 500 hours of community service and ordered to pay a $5,000 fine. (AP) 18 | E X P R E S S | 0 7. 2 4 . 2 0 1 4 | T H U R S D AY HATE DRAMA?

Broncos Owner Giving Up Control 70-year-old steps down because of Alzheimer's disease NFL Denver Broncos owner Pat Bowlen is giving up control of the team because of Alzheimer's disease. The 70-year-old Bowlen will no longer be a part of the club's daily operations, the Broncos announced Wednesday. Team President Joe Ellis is adding the title of chief executive officer and will have final say on all matters. The Broncos say the ownership of the franchise is held in a trust Bowlen set up more than a decade ago in hopes that one of his seven children will one day run the team. "As many in the Denver community and around the National Football League have speculated, my husband, Pat, has very bravely and quietly battled Alzheimer's disease for the last few years. He has elected to keep his condition private because he has strongly believed, and often said, 'It's not about me,' " Annabel Bowlen said in a statement Wednesday. The team issued a statement offering "our full support, compassion and respect to 'Mr. B,' who has faced Alzheimer's disease with such dignity and strength." Bowlen had reduced his public appearances in recent years, although he was still a fixture at the team's Dove Valley complex and at all of its games. After acknowledging in 2009 that he suffered short-term memory loss, he stepped back from day-to-day operations in 2011 when he promoted Ellis to president. Under Bowlen's guidance, the Broncos won six AFC titles and two Super Bowls. (AP) Gronkowski OK'd to Play Rob Gronkowski has been cleared to play at the New England Patriots training camp.

Read Marc's previous columns at: www.washingtonpost.com/muse (WARNER BROS. PICTURES) As "Sharknado 2" looms (9 p.m., Wednesday on SyFy), you may wonder if the premise — tornadoes lift sharks from the ocean and drop them over Los Angeles — holds water. I was working for National Geographic when the original "Sharknado" aired and asked myself that very question. My intern and I did research. Here's what we found: There's a thing called a waterspout — a tornado that strikes over a body of water. By Marc Its winds could lift Silver animals at the water's surface, carry them off and deposit them on land. Waterspouts are thought to be responsible for a snail rain in England on May 28, 1881, a plummeting alligator on Dec. 26, 1887, in Kentucky (The New York Times covered the story) and a worm downpour in Jennings, La., on July 7, 2007 (prompting a police department employee to proclaim, "It's worms! Get out of the way!"). But don't expect a shark shower. Christopher Vaccaro, a National Weather Service spokesman, told us: "The sharks wouldn't even be close enough to be entrained in the circulation of the water spout in any way, let alone would they be lifted because they weigh so much." DC asked Brad Meltzer to create a new comic that would rightly celebrate the Caped Crusader's entire history. Meltzer and designer Chip Kidd deconstructed the first Batman story, then weaved in a trove of character history. The reimagined "Detective Comics #27" echoes the theme of need for superheroes in a scary world, as it alludes not only to young Bruce Wayne becoming an orphan after a theater performance, but also to the 2012 shooting in Aurora, Colo., at a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises." (T WP) 2 3 (DC ENTERTAINMENT) Wormnado! In a world filled with seemingly daily disasters and endless turmoil, it's no wonder that superheroes are as popular as ever, from blockbuster movies all the way to the local toy shop. And no superhero resonates quite like Batman, who this year celebrates his 75th birthday. San Deigo Comic-Con, which began this week, has Batman to thank for its incredible success, as the convention arose in the wake of the character's hit 1960s TV show. DC Comics declared July 23 "Batman Day," sparking waves of social media nostalgia for the masked hero in any number of his film, comic and television iterations. So beneath the savvy marketing and cool collectibles, why exactly does Batman endure as a popcultural force? The caped crusader has persevered through so many phases, from the high camp of the '60s TV show starring Adam West to the Dark Knight of a shadowy, psychologically tortured figure as popularized by Frank Miller's graphic novels and Christopher Nolan's feature films. "The odd part is, although he's moved from camp, to dark, to selfhating, to self-confidence, you always somehow know exactly what Batman 'would do.' There's New Releases Old Becomes New 4 (DC ENTERTAINMENT) SYFY Comics 1 (DC ENTERTAINMENT) Broadcast Muse 1. Christian Bale lent the hero of Christopher Nolan's "Batman" series a fierce growl. 2. The hero spends most of "Batman: The Dark Knight" searching for his lost friend. 3. "Batman: No Man's Land" began with an earthquake that devastated Gotham. 4. "Batman: A Death in the Family" saw the tragic death of Batman's sidekick, Robin. a core that never changes," says Brad Meltzer, the best-selling political-thriller author and comic-book creator. "For 75 years, Batman has been a cultural shield, protecting us from our deepest fears." Meltzer finds value in the constancy within Batman's creative malleability. "The ears gets taller, then shorter. The costume will get darker, then lighter. The utility belt will get pouch-y, then sleeker. But Batman's character is as stubborn as the man beneath the cowl," Meltzer says. "He is immovable. He projects sheer will, convincing us we have a chance — even when we don't. … We, as a people, need someone that committed to an ideal." MICHAEL CAVNA (THE WASHINGTON POST ) Live From New York, It's Still the 'Late Show': CBS said Wednesday that Stephen Colbert, who is replacing David Letterman as the "Late Show" host next year, will keep the show in New York City's Ed Sullivan Theatre. Colbert's debut date is still uncertain, dependent on when Letterman officially retires from late-night TV. New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo said CBS is eligible for up to $11 million in tax credits for keeping the show in the city. (AP) T H U R S D AY | 0 7. 2 4 . 2 0 1 4 | E X P R E S S | 25 entertainment lookout The Rom-Com Philosopher SCOTT ROTH (AP) At 67, director Rob Reiner is still in love with love "There is only one end result, and that's death," Rob Reiner says. It seems like an odd thing to say in an interview that's ostensibly about "And So It Goes," the actor-director's newest romantic comedy (opening Friday). "When I turned 60, I started thinking about myself as a very, very, very young old person. And all of those cliches that you kind of intellectually understand, you start internalizing as you get older," Reiner says. "Life is precious, that it is something you need to embrace and enjoy as much as you can." That's the driving point behind the film, which stars Diane Keaton and Michael Douglas as widowed neighbors who find new hope (and challenges) with each other. Navigating the world of budding romance as older people brings with it lighthearted moments (before getting down to business, Keaton's Leah declares "I'm keeping my bra on!") along with more serious ones. "When you're older, you know what's at stake more," Reiner, 67, says. "You may be a little more gunshy because you know how painful a loss can be. You know what it feels like to have your heart broken, and some people at that age will shy away" from romance. That said, the age of the characters didn't change things much for the director of many rom-coms, including genre standout "When Harry Met Sally …" "You're still dealing with men and women, and no matter what age they are, to me the rules are the same," he says. "It's all about this wonderfully charged and awkward dance that we as men and women do with each other." "And So It Goes" does have something that other rom-coms lack, Reiner says: a def inite message. "What we want to say with this movie is you have those urges and those feelings all the way through life, and you only have this one chance," he says. "You should not pass up the opportunity to be able to explore those feelings and live your life." hoc nal c artisa s amel d car s an olate KRISTEN PAGE-KIRBY (EXPRESS) Hearsay In Brief DETOURS Columbia Pictures announced on Wednesday that it will release a "Sinister Six" spinoff in 2016, pushing "The Amazing Spider-Man 3" to 2018.
