AS CUTE AS A BAO BAO: John Sonderman captured a playful moment
between two Sumatran tiger cubs, Sukacita and Bandar, at the National Zoo last
month. The two cubs were born Aug. 5 and went on view Nov. 18 after having a few
months to bond with their mother, Dumai.
BEARDS
Dude From ‘Duck Dynasty’ Must Be Strapped for CashIt looks as if Father Time might end up doing time in
Prince George’s County, Md., where a man wearing a
long, blatantly fake, salt-and-pepper beard robbed a
PNC Bank in Laurel, Md., last month, according to Lau-
rel Police and reported by The Baltimore Sun. The fel-
low fired one shot before taking leave with his cash.
No one was injured, and police are investigating.
SUPERHEROES
“I am Drunkman!”— A R E V E L E R I N C L A R E N D O N TO SOBERMAN, A SUPERHERO
WHO LAST MONTH ENCOURAGED BARGOERS NOT TO DRINK
AND DRIVE. (“DRUNKMAN” PLANNED TO TAKE METRO HOME, SO
SOBERMAN GAVE HIM A STARBUCKS GIF T CARD.) SOBERMAN,
WHO WEARS RED AND YELLOW SPANDEX, A MASK AND A CAPE,
IS PART OF AN ARLINGTON COUNT Y POLICE CAMPAIGN TO STOP
DRUNKEN DRIVING.
CARELESSNESS
What Happens When You Don’t Pay Your Intern ElvesLooks as if the trunk of Santa’s sleigh wasn’t properly
latched. A container full of wrapped children’s gifts was
found on the side of the road in Spotsylvania County,
Va., late last month, Fredericksburg Patch reported. A
concerned citizen found the gifts and informed the sher-
iff, who tried to find the owner. At press time, however,
the mysterious gift-hauler remained at large. (EXPRESS)

2014 PREDICTION
“If Surprise Number One
caused Metro’s bigshots to pee in their pants,
I imagine Surprise Number Two will
do a bit more.”
— HENRY DOCTER, otherwise
known as the Phantom Planter, on
his plans, “full of goodness and love,”
for the year. Docter made news in
July when he attempted to beautify
the area outside the Dupont Circle
station with 1,000 plants — only to
have Metro rip them out a few weeks
later. He responded in October with
“Surprise Number One,” a sculpture
he suspended from a rope above the
Dupont station entrance (it, too, was
taken down). A second project is in
the works, he said, adding, “When it’s
completely operational, I think Metro is
going to unconditionally surrender.”
ON LOCATION
Scene Beyond the CapitolLook around. Chances are the U.S. Capitol isn’t in your direct view. The National Mall likely isn’t either. That’s because
the D.C. area is more than that. Yet many filmmakers seem slow to catch on, with those iconic sites topping the list of
locations that filmmakers file permits for, according to D.C.’s Office of Motion Picture and Television Development.
We dug up some movies filmed with less-obvious local backdrops. Can you match the scene with the location?
For What It’s Worth is produced by Marissa Payne and Rachel Sadon. Have suggestions for the page? Email us at [email protected]
or tweet us @WaPoExpress.“D.C. Cab” — Where Tyrone (Charlie
Barnett) attempts to pull an illegal fare.
“Contact” — Where Eleanor Arroway
(Jodie Foster) seeks funding to build a
machine to contact extraterrestrials.
“Slam” — Where the judge (played by
Council member Marion Barry!) gives a
lecture about the dangers of drug use.
“State of Play” — Where Cal McAffrey
(Russell Crowe) interrogates Dominic
Foy (Jason Bateman)
“The Blair Witch Project” — Where
Michael (Michael C. Williams) and
Heather (Heather Donahue) end up.
“Silence of the Lambs” — Where
Clarice Starling (Jodie Foster) trains.
“Marnie” — Where Marnie (Tippi
Hedren) stays.
“Absolute Power” — Where FBI agent
Seth Frank (Ed Harris) confronts Luther
Whitney (Clint Eastwood).
“No Way Out” — Where Tom Farrell
(Kevin Costner) first meets the soon-to-
be-murdered Susan Atwell (Sean Young).

01.05-01.11THE BEST THINGS TO DO THIS WEEK | COMPILED BY EXPRESS STAFF
ONGOING
‘Mr. Lincoln’s Washington’If you think the District looks
different than it did a year ago,
you should have seen it 150
years ago. This National Portrait
Gallery exhibit collects images
of D.C. neighborhoods and
landmarks from the Civil War
era. See what Chinatown, Navy
Yard, the White House and the
Capitol looked like when Honest
Abe was in offi ce. National Portrait Gallery, Eighth and F streets NW; through Jan. 25, 2015, free; 202-633-8300, npg.si.edu. (Gallery Place)
‘Downton Abbey’The third season of “Downton” ended with a party, a birth and Matthew’s death. How long will Lady Mary sulk? Considering how quickly the Crawleys bounced back from Lady Sybil’s demise, maybe a few hours? The fourth installment, airing as part of “Masterpiece” (9 p.m., Sundays, PBS), is rumored to be a return to fi rst-season form, with more trivial but fascinating upstairs-downstairs drama and fewer soap-opera twists.
SUNDAY PB
S
SUNDAY
Todd SniderDuring live shows, alt-country
stalwart Todd Snider famously
introduces his songs with stories.
That makes the small, seated
confi nes of Rams Head On Stage
perfect for the singer-songwriter.
The intimate space lets the audi-
ence really listen to what Snider’s
talking — and singing — about,
whether it’s a workingman’s take
on the Great Recession or the
story of how Snider himself went
from high school football play-
er to troubadour. Rams Head On Stage, 33 West St., Annapolis; Sun., 7 p.m., $27.50; 410-268-4545, ramsheadonstage.com.
SUNDAY
Ska Goes Solo Tour Every punk’s gotta grow up
some day; the same goes for ska
singers. Thus we have the Ska
Goes Solo Tour, in which mem-
bers of Less Than Jake, Catch
22 and Arrogant Sons of Bitch-
es drop the horns and strip their
songs down to the bare, acoustic
essentials. Jammin’ Java, 227 Maple Ave. E, Vienna; Sun., 7 p.m., $12-$15; 703-255-1566, jamminjava.com.
ONGOING
‘The Nile and Ancient Egypt’The Smithsonian’s Freer Gal-
lery is devoted to Asian art, so
what’s with the Egyptian stuff?
Charles Lang Freer, whose col-
lection makes up most of the
museum’s holdings, was also
really into the land of pharaohs
and pyramids. In 1907, Freer
even told a friend that his hoard
would be incomplete without
examples of “the greatest art in
the world.” The artifacts in the
exhibit — amulets, vases, tiles,
beads, pottery — show how
the world’s most famous river
inspired artisans. Freer Gallery of Art, Jefferson Drive and 12th Street SW; free; 202-633-4880, asia.si.edu. (Smithsonian)

Jim Gaffi ganThere is, perhaps, no one more qualifi ed to sling jokes about food than Jim Gaffi gan. The comedian titled his recent memoir “Dad Is Fat,” so you know he likes to eat. Then there’s his material, which has touched on McDonald’s, Subway and, most famously, those addictive, microwaveable pouches of meat and cheese called Hot Pockets. Warner Theatre, 513 13th St. NW; Fri. & Sat., 7 & 9:30 p.m., $37.75-$47.75; 202-783-4000, warnertheatredc.com. (Metro Center)
FRIDAY–SATURDAY
MONDAY
‘The Bachelor’Fan favorite Juan Pablo Galavis,
the former Venezuelan soccer
player who was spurned by
Bachelorette Desiree Hartsock
last season, is back for the show’s
18th run (8 p.m., Mondays,
ABC). He told People magazine
that, as ‘The Bachelor’s” fi rst
Latino lead, “It’s going to be so
different. You’re going to love
it.” OK, then! On Sunday, catch
“Countdown to Juan Pablo” (8 p.m.)
to psychologically prepare.
ONGOING
‘Records of Rights’The most eye-catching highlight
of this new National Archives
exhibit is the 17-foot touch screen
visitors can use to explore civil
rights issues — such as those
of kids in schools, gays and
lesbians, and African-Americans
— throughout U.S. history.
Among the many physical
artifacts on view is an original
Magna Carta, the 13th-century
legal document that inspired
the Founding Fathers. National Archives, Constitution Avenue between Seventh and Ninth streets NW; free; 202-357-5000, archives.gov/nae/visit. (Archives)
TUESDAY
‘Justifi ed’One of the most underrated
dramas on cable television,
“Justifi ed” (10 p.m., Tuesdays,
FX) returns for a fi fth season.
This is the show’s fi rst outing
since novelist Elmore Leonard
died in August; his short story
“Fire in the Hole” inspired the
series, which also drew from
Leonard’s other tales of Deputy
U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens.
“Justifi ed” follows Givens
(Timothy Olyphant) as he
chases criminals and plays by
his own rules in Harlan, Ky.
FX promises new foes in the
form of “a deadly, lawless
family from Florida.”
IN THEATERS
‘August: Osage County’FRIDAY | Meryl Streep’s an unstable, drugged-out mom and Julia Roberts is the toughest of her three daughters. When Dad dies, the whole family reunites in Oklahoma to hurl guilt, lies and objects at one another.

CAPITALS
Ovechkin is still great
Capitals star Alex Ovechkin
has powered past a little lull in
his career and is back to being
one of the best players in the
NHL. After two down seasons
(by his standards), Ovechkin
led the league in goals and won
his third Hart Trophy last year.
And he hasn’t slowed down;
he’s on pace to set a career
record in goals this year. He’s
been the first to reach 30 goals
in back-to-back seasons.
CAPITALS
Coaching stability
The Caps went from Bruce
Boudreau to Dale Hunter
in the middle of the 2011-
12 season. Then Hunter
didn’t return, so they hired
Adam Oates for the lockout-
shortened 2012-13. That’s a lot
of change in philosophy and
leadership over a short period
of time. With Oates now
having his first full season to
work with the team, there’s
finally a sense of stability on
the bench.
D.C. UNITED
United has done it before
From 2010 to 2011, D.C. United
had a total of 15 wins and
missed the playoffs both years.
Then they bounced back to go
17-10-7 and make the Eastern
Conference finals in 2012. So
why can’t they rebound from
the dregs of the MLS standings
again? Acquiring U.S. national
team forward Eddie Johnson,
who led the Seattle Sounders
in goals the past two seasons,
should help.
NATIONALS
A promising second half
The Nationals had one of the
worst offenses in the NL in the
first half of the season, ranking
13th out of 15 teams in runs
scored. But after the All-Star
break, they scored the second-
most runs in the NL. Their
starting lineup remains intact
for 2014 and is fully capable of
being a top run-scoring group.
WIZARDS
Making the jumpJohn Wall and Bradley Beal
have missed significant time over
the past two years, but if each can
stay healthy, the Wizards will have
one of the top young backcourts
in the NBA. This season, Beal has
taken the responsibility of being
the team’s top scorer, while Wall
is developing into one of the best
all-around point guards in the
league.
WIZARDS
No bad dealsHere’s who’s under contract
for the Wizards in 2014-15: Nene,
John Wall, Martell Webster,
Bradley Beal, Otto Porter Jr. and
Glen Rice Jr. (Eric Maynor has
a player option). They’re not all
great contracts, but the Wizards
no longer have any debilitating
deals like they had in the past
with Gilbert Arenas, Rashard
Lewis and Andray Blatche.
THE BIG FOUR
Misery loves company
In each of the four major sports,
Washington is in one of the worst
divisions or conferences. In the
NFL, the NFC East winner has
had 10 or fewer wins the past
four seasons. In baseball, the NL
East was the only division in 2013
with three teams with fewer than
75 wins. In the NBA, there have
been times this season when only
two Eastern Conference teams
were above .500. And in the NHL,
the Metropolitan division is by far
the worst. So it won’t take much
to get back in the playoff mix.
REDSKINS
More spending options
The Redskins had a $36 million
salary-cap sanction, which they
split over the past two years. Next
year, the Redskins’ spending
handcuffs come off, so glaring
needs like safety, offensive line
and inside linebacker can be
addressed through free agency.
REDSKINS
A healthy offseason
Robert Griffin III set the bar
pretty high for himself with
his record-setting rookie year.
His 2013 season was, well, very
underwhelming. But cut the
guy some slack. He missed an
entire offseason’s workouts as he
rehabbed from his knee injury.
Heading into this offseason
healthy should give RGIII an
edge for 2014.
NATIONALS
Major upgradeWith the addition of pitcher
Doug Fister, the Nationals may
have the best starting rotation
in the majors. Fister was 14-9
with a 3.67 ERA last season.
The starter he’ll replace in the
rotation, Dan Haren, was 10-14
with a 4.67 ERA in 2013.

2012 was one of the best years in D.C. sports history. Then came 2013, a reminder of the decades of hardship this fan base has endured. But let’s not dwell on the past. We’re a glass-half-full

Summer calls for a cold beer or chilled glass of wine,but to combat January’s dark days and frigid temperatures, you need stronger stuff . This is the time for spirits that make you feel warm all over, such as brandy, rum and rye. So put away those pajamas and head to one of these establishments, whose bartenders await you with soothing winter drinks. Made with such ingredients as cloves and nutmeg and heated to a comforting temperature, the following concoctions stand out for their toasty takes on classics and their ability to help you cope with gloomy weather. BRIAN OH (FOR EXPRESS)
WintryMixology
Estadio, 1520 14th St. NW; 202-319-1404, estadio-dc.com.Inspired by the classic Spanish
drink Trifasico (espresso, frothed
milk and brandy), beverage
director Adam Bernbach created
the Quatrofi asco ($9), which
adds almond syrup and orange
zest to the recipe. “The orange
brightens it up a bit and the
almond accentuates the nuttiness
in the espresso,” Bernbach says.
His tweaks help to “sand down the
bitter edges of the espresso and the
stark booziness of the brandy.”
QUATROFIASCO
Range, 5335 Wisconsin Ave. NW; 202-803-8020, voltrange.com.A spin on the classic Blue Blazer (the original
fl aming cocktail that was included in the
fi rst bartenders manual, written in 1862),
the Blazed Abbot ($11) trades the customary
scotch for Smith & Cross rum and Chartreuse,
a liqueur whose recipe includes more than
100 herbs. Hot water and an orange peel is
added and the Blazed Abbot is lit on fi re. It’s
then sloshed back and forth between two
mugs, all the while ablaze to build warmth
before the bartender extinguishes the fl ame
by snuffi ng it with a mug. The resulting
concoction — so named for the Carthusian
monks that make Chartreuse — is potent,
aromatic and herbaceous.
BLAZED ABBOT
Jackson 20, 480 King St., Alexandria; 703-842-2790, jackson20.com.The 2 Sins ($11) is bartender
Andy Nelson’s interpretation
of the hot buttered rum, the rich holiday classic that
dates back to Colonial days. To keep the drink from
being too heavy, Nelson chills the hot butter overnight
so the fat can be skimmed off. He reheats it before
adding it to Myers’ Rum and a spice bouquet that
includes cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg and allspice. A
house-made butterscotch and dulce de leche foam
mingles with the liquid as you sip. “We’re going for
a complex yet well-rounded taste that will keep you
warm with seasonal spices and buttery sweetness,”
Nelson says.
Majestic Cafe, 911 King St., Alexandria; 703-837-9117, majesticcafe.com.One of mixologist Todd
Thrasher’s creations, the Cider
Car ($12) is a clever play on
the sidecar. Instead of that
drink’s cognac and lemon juice,
Thrasher mixes Calvados Busnel
apple brandy, Cointreau and hot
apple cider with a cinnamon
sugar rim on the glass. The
result is boozy with a thick
citrus fl avor that’s sweet but
not overbearing. The cinnamon
garnish injects a bit of balancing
spice into each sip. “It’s perfect
for warming your belly this
season,” Thrasher says.
Room11, 3234 11th St. NW; 202-332-3234, room11dc.com.This winter cocktail is named
after an intersection where
bartender Sean MacPherson
had a memorable night with his
girlfriend. “She took me there
on a cold night and we talked
for hours,” MacPherson says.
“We kept passing a sweatshirt
back and forth, and it made
me want a warm drink.” The
next day, the 13th & Clifton
($9) was born. Based on the
traditional hot toddie, the drink
is made with Old Overholt
rye, Kirschwasser brandy,
Peychaud’s Bitters and Fernet
Leopold Highland Amaro.
Served in a mug, the 13th &
Clifton is tart with a heat that
creeps through your chest. For
the full effect, take it outside to
Room11’s small sidewalk patio
and sit by the fi re pit.
