On this crowded, hot, trampled planet,

one of the most vexing trends is some-

thing countless of us see when we look

in the mirror: We’re going gray.

The United Nations has declared that

the human population will hit 7 billion

Monday, and an expanding percentage of

those people are in the market for read-

ing glasses. The aging of the human race

has been faster than anyone could have

imagined a few decades ago. Fertility

rates have plunged globally and, simul-

taneously, life spans have increased. The

and services to huge numbers of pension-

ers. The aging of the world will change cul-

tures in myriad ways. People may have to

extend their working lives far beyond the

traditional retirement age. Countries may

start competing for immigrants.

The planet as a whole doesn’t have a

baby shortage. Every minute of every day,

according to the Population Reference

Bureau, the number of births exceeds the

number of deaths by 158. But the growth

isn’t spread out. Of that net increase, 154

are in the developing world.

The precipitous drop in fertility in

many nations caught demographers by

surprise, said Linda Waite, director of

the Center on Aging at the University of

Chicago. No one realized until relatively

recently that the processes driving down

fertility — such as greater education for

women and their surge into the workforce

— would continue even when women

began having fewer than two children,

she said. “It’s sort of a head slap,” Waite

said. “It was more an unspoken assump-

tion that fertility would fall to replace-

ment and then stabilize.” JOEL ACHENBACH

(THE WASHINGTON POST)

As World Grows, It Grows OlderThe population hits 7B as life spans increase and fertility rates drop

result is a recontoured age graph: The

pyramid, once with a tiny number of old

folks at the peak and a broad founda-

tion of children, is inverting. In wealthy

countries, the graph already has a pro-

nounced middle-age spread.

This is, in many respects, very good

news. Longer life is a blessing of modern

medicine and improvements in nutrition.

Lower fertility corresponds to greater

prosperity and education. Women have

gained more control over their repro-

ductive lives.

But the unexpectedly abrupt demo-

graphic transition has created economic

upheaval. For the countries that hit the

fertility brakes the hardest, the graying

of society has become a full-blown crisis.

They’re suddenly desperate for babies.

They need more workers to provide goods

These portraits were

taken around the world

by Agence France-Presse

photographers, leading up

to today’s birth of the

7 billionth person.

It’s unclear

how big the human

population will get.

The planet added a

billion people in the

last dozen years (and

is now more than twice

as crowded as it was

when President Obama

was born). But a

relatively small uptick

in the predicted fertility

rate could result in a

world with 16 billion

people; a downtick

could mean a global

drop in population to

6 billion. (TWP)

More than 3 million people from

Maine to Maryland were without

power as an unseasonably early

nor’easter dumped heavy, wet snow

over the weekend on a region more

used to gaping at leaves in Octo-

ber than shoveling snow.

The snow was due to stop fall-

ing in New England late Sunday,

but Halloween will likely come and

go before many of the more-than

3 million without electricity see it

restored, officials warned. Several

referred to the combination of the

storm’s early arrival and its feroc-

ity as historic, yet another unwel-

come superlative for weather-wea-

ry Northeasterners.

“You had this storm, you had

Hurricane Irene, you had the

flooding last spring, and you had

the nasty storms last winter,” Tom

Jacobsen said Sunday while get-

ting coffee at a convenience store

in Hamilton Township, N.J.

The storm smashed record

snowfall totals for October and

worsened as it moved north. Com-

munities in western Massachu-

setts were among the hardest hit.

Snowfall totals topped 27 inches

in Plainfield, and nearby Windsor

had gotten 26 inches by early Sun-

day. It was blamed for at least eight

deaths, and states of emergency

were declared in New Jersey, Con-

necticut, Massachusetts and parts

of New York. MICHAEL MELIA (AP)

Before Smoking Man, there was

A new ad featuring Herman

Cain’s smoking campaign manag-

er Mark Block is the latest political

video to become an overnight Web

sensation. The ad, with Block tak-

ing a deep drag on a cigarette while

Cain flashes a Cheshire cat grin,

has had close to 1 million clicks on

Ads Staple of American PoliticsCain’s advertisement of smoking manager joins viral video lists

Cain’s website since its debut last

week. It’s also aired repeatedly on

cable news shows and become the

subject of countless parodies.

Online viral videos have become

a staple of American politics. Not

long ago, pricey paid television ads

were the only way for candidates

to be noticed. Now, anyone with a

good idea and an Internet connec-

tion can generate buzz.

Some widely disseminated vid-

eos have been harmless fun, such

as the ad produced by digital stu-

dio Jib Jab in 2004 showing rivals

George W. Bush and John Kerry

singing “This Land.” Others have

had a deeper effect, including Tina

Fey’s scathing “Saturday Night Live”

depiction of 2008 Republican vice

presidential nominee Sarah Palin as

an ill-informed lightweight.

Ken Goldstein, whose Cam-

paign Media Analysis Group tracks

political advertising, said that while

online videos have the power to

influence a race, paid television

advertising still carries much more

overall impact.

“The Internet preaches to the

choir,” Goldstein said. “It’s a great

way to raise money and mobilize

supporters. ... But viral videos are

not a way to mobilize passive and

undecided voters, which television

ads do.” BETH FOUHY (AP)

Mark Block, Herman Cain’s cam-paign manager, on Friday said Cain has raised $3 million in October in part because of the video’s popularity. “That’s what we’re seeing in our grass-roots activism growth and, obviously, in the YouTube thing,” Block said. (AP)

Across the street from U.S. military

headquarters in Kabul, shrouded

from view by concrete walls, the

Afghan intelligence agency runs

a detention facility for up to 40

terrorism suspects that is known

as Department 124. So much tor-

ture took place inside, one detain-

ee told the United Nations, that it

has earned a different name: “Peo-

ple call it Hell.”

But long before the world body

publicly revealed “systematic tor-

ture” in Afghan intelligence agen-

cy detention centers, top officials

from the State Department, CIA

and U.S. military received mul-

tiple warnings about abuses at

Department 124 and other Afghan

facilities, according to Afghan and

Western officials with knowledge

of the situation.

Despite the warnings, the Unit-

ed States continued to transfer

detainees to Afghan intelligence

service custody, the officials said.

Even as other countries stopped

handing over detainees to prob-

lematic facilities, the American

government did not.

U.S. Special Operations troops

delivered detainees to Depart-

ment 124, and CIA officials reg-

ularly visited the facility, which

was rebuilt last year with Amer-

ican money to interrogate high-

level Taliban and al-Qaeda sus-

pects, according to Afghan and

Western officials familiar with the

site. Afghan intelligence officials

said Americans never participat-

ed in the torture but should have

known about it.

When the United Nations

brought allegations of widespread

detainee abuse on Aug. 30 to the

attention of Gen. John Allen, the top

U.S. military commander here, he

took swift action ahead of the pub-

lic release of the findings. Coali-

began a program to monitor those

facilities and conduct human rights

classes for interrogators.

American officials denied that

they had ignored credible warn-

ings of detainee abuse and said

that whenever such an allegation

was raised, they took action. For-

mer top commander Gen. David

Petraeus, for instance, ordered a

halt to detainee transfers to Afghan

intelligence and police custody in

Kandahar in July.

“Any place that we’ve had a

concern in the past, we’ve taken

the appropriate steps — I’m con-

fident of that — and we’re taking

The prospect that U.S. offi-cials failed to act on prior warn-ings about torture in an Afghanistan prison raises questions about their compliance with a law, known as the Leahy Amendment, that prohibits the United States from funding units of foreign security forces when there is credible evidence they have committed human rights abuses. The State Department is now inves-tigating whether the law applies and what funding might be affected, ac-cording to U.S. officials. (TWP)

Palestinians on Sunday carry the body of a militant killed in Israeli airstrikes.

A new round of violence between

Israel and Palestinian militants

has Gaza’s Hamas rulers caught

between reluctance to take on

Israel and discomfort with rein-

ing in fellow Islamists from small-

er, more radical groups involved in

the fighting.

The fighting has killed 10 Pal-

estinians and an Israeli, casting

doubts on assessments that the

recent prisoner swap between Israel

and Hamas might improve relations

between the bitter foes. Despite the

worst bloodshed in months, both

sides indicated they were interest-

ed in restoring calm.

Hamas, which has ruled Gaza

since 2007, has avoided direct

involvement in the latest burst of

fighting. Hamas lost hundreds of

men in a fierce Israeli offensive

Gaza leaders avoid involvement in worst violence in months

against rocket squads three years

ago and has largely maintained

calm since then.

At the same time, the group,

which has killed hundreds of

Israelis in suicide bombings and

other attacks, remains commit-

ted to armed struggle against

Israel. Threatened by even more

radical rivals in Gaza, Hamas has

not criticized anyone for attack-

ing Israel. (AP)

said they started pursuing the man after he ignored a

chase, the motorist nearly hit a school bus, rammed through a police

vehicle and smashed several other cars before being caught. (AP)

Most of the Gaza violence this past weekend was between Israel and Islamic Jihad, an Iranian-backed group that is considered even more extreme than Hamas. Israel says it holds Hamas responsible for attacks from Gaza, and there is little doubt that Hamas’ control — when it wants to exercise it — is strong. In the lat-est violence, an Israeli airstrike hit a pair of militants in Gaza on Sunday as they prepared to fire a rocket into Is-rael, the military said. (AP)

• Pepco requests authority to earn an 8.64% Rate of Return, including a Return on Equity of 10.75%.Per the PSC’s decision in Formal Case No. 1076, rendered in March 2010, Pepco’s current allowedRate of Return is 8.01%, including a Return on Equity of 9.625%.

• Pepco proposes a Reliability Investment Recovery Mechanism (“RIM”) surcharge that would providefor annual rate adjustments to recover the reliability related costs of certain investments in Pepco’sdistribution system.

• Pepco seeks cost recovery for its investments in Advanced Metering Infrastructure (“AMI”).

• Pepco proposes to recover incremental customer care expenses relating to initiatives that Pepcois undertaking to enhance customer service. Pepco states that this initiative includes four majorcomponents: personnel, telecommunication infrastructure (hardware and software), stormreadiness, and customer education/market research.

• Pepco’s proposals would add about $5.00 to the monthly bill for the typical residential customer andincrease the minimum monthly customer charge from $6.65 per month to $10.40 for the standard(R) class and from $6.65 to $12.39 for the All-Electric residential (AE) class.

Together, but SeparateAs Pr. George’s becomes more diverse, its neighborhoods remain homogeneous

Colonial and Georgian manses are

rising at the Hamptons at Wood-

more in Bowie, featuring four-

car garages, opulent kitchens and

model names such as Tara.

The fact that all the residents so

far are African-American, many of

them new to Prince George’s County,

underscores just how differently the

county is evolving compared with the

rest of the Washington region.

From Loudoun to Fairfax to

Montgomery, communities that are

growing are also growing more inte-

grated, with people of every race and

ethnicity living side by side. Prince

George’s stands virtually alone as a

place that is gaining population yet

has an increasing number of resi-

dents living in neighborhoods that

are overwhelmingly one race — in

this case, African-American.

Business executive Sterling Crock-

ett, 49, who could afford to live

just about anywhere, moved from

North Bethesda to Bowie, Md.,

four years ago with his wife, Flor-

ence. He chose the Hamptons at

Woodmore.

To appreciate some of the rea-

sons why, go back to the small

town in southwestern Virginia

where Crockett was one of only

four black students in his gradu-

ating class. An elementary school

teacher once ordered a white class-

mate not to share her scissors with

Crockett, and his high school host-

ed a “slave day” auctioning off ath-

letes to raise money.

As an adult, he yearned for a

A Washington Post analysis of census data shows that the number of Prince

George’s County neighborhoods where more than 85 percent of residents are

the same race or ethnicity — what demographers consider a high level of seg-

regation — has inched up, from 25 percent in 1990 to 27 percent last year.

In the District, just one in three neighborhoods is highly segregated, the Post analysis found. A decade ago, more than half were.

In the Maryland suburbs, one in five neighbor-hoods is dom-inated by one race or ethnicity, down from almost a third in 2000.

The biggest drop has been in Northern Virginia, where only one in 20 neighborhoods is a racial or ethnic enclave. No suburb is more diverse than Fairfax County, where just 2 percent of neighborhoods are segregated.

— BA R T L A N D RY, A SOCIOLOGIST AT THE UNIVERSIT Y OF MARYL AND, WHO HAS RETURNED TO PRINCE GEORGE’S FOR AN UPDATE TO HIS 1987 BOOK, “THE NEW BLACK MIDDLE CL ASS.”

The McFarland family gets ready for breakfast at their home in Bowie, Md. A Washington Post study of census figures found a

growing number of Prince George’s County residents live in neighborhoods that are overwhelmingly inhabited by one racial group.

place where he could feel proud of

who he is, where race isn’t every-

thing, and where he and his family

would live around other upwardly

mobile blacks. “I saw it as an oppor-

tunity to get into a community that

is inhabited and run by African-

Americans,” Crockett said. “It’s a

county of African-Americans doing

well — more black millionaires.”

Twenty years ago, fully a third of

the county’s segregated neighbor-

hoods were white. Today, none are.

And there are only a few commu-

nities where whites are a majori-

ty, mostly in College Park.

Some whites with deep roots in

Prince George’s County say they

sense that the white exodus from the

county is largely over and that His-

panics have helped make the county

feel more diverse than ever.

State delegate Justin Ross and

his wife are raising four young chil-

dren in Hyattsville, Md., not far from

the University of Maryland in an

area that has long attracted a mix

of people. His two oldest children

attend University Park Elementa-

ry School, where the student body

is 30 percent black, 30 percent His-

panic, 26 percent white and 8 per-

cent Asian. “We’re giving [our chil-

dren] a competitive advantage in

a real world that will look much

different than the one my parents

grew up in,” said Ross, 35.

But most white longtime resi-

dents have friends and neighbors

who have left the county and made

little secret of why, said several who

discussed white flight and diversity.

“A lot of white people don’t want to

live around black people. It’s crazy, I

know,” said John Petro, a developer

who lives in a predominantly black

subdivision in Bowie.

Today, integration has moved beyond

black and white. Often, integrated

neighborhoods are created when

Asians and Hispanics move into pre-

dominantly white neighborhoods,

said John Logan, a Brown Univer-

sity sociologist who has studied seg-

regation patterns for 30 years. He

says these “global neighborhoods”

pave the way for more blacks to move

into a community without trigger-

ing white flight.

In the D.C. region, 90 percent

of whites still live in neighbor-

hoods where they are a majority

or the largest group. Many whites

remain unwilling to buy houses

in black neighborhoods, Logan

said, and so are most Asians.

“It’s going to be a long, long time

before that disappears,” he said.

Train pattern changeson Yellow, Orange, Blue lines coming

Metro riders who want to move between the Farragut

North and Farragut West stations no longer have to head to Metro Center or

pay an additional fare to make the switch. As of noon Friday, riders can move

between the two stations for free. Metro has dubbed it the Farragut Cross-

ing; you just have to use a SmarTrip card and make the switch in 30 minutes

or less. (THE WASHINGTON POST)

In mid-2012, Metro will modify rush-hour service on the Orange, Yellow and Blue lines to accommodate the planned Dulles Silver Line and adjust to changing ridership patterns. This is where the adjustments will occur:

SOURCE: WAMATAGRAPHIC: THE WASHINGTON POST

After several years of study, the

transit authority has decided how

it wants to rearrange the Metro-

rail trains. Now Metro’s task is to

explain this new rush-hour service

so people can take advantage of it,

or at least avoid getting lost.

Metrorail commuters develop hab-

its. They don’t need to look at a map

for directions. They don’t need

to pull out their earbuds to hear

announcements. They know where

to stand on the platform to board

the rail car that’s going to wind

up closest to the station escalator

that’s closest to their office.

Why mess with that?

Three reasons: Ridership on

the eastern side of downtown is

growing faster than on the west-

ern side. Rush-hour trains enter-

ing the Rosslyn tunnel from Vir-

ginia into the District are jammed.

The tunnel is handling the maxi-

mum number of trains, and in two

years, Metro will need to find a way

to squeeze in trains coming down

the new Silver Line.

Metro estimates that some-

where between 20 and 33 percent

of Blue Line riders will shift to Yel-

low Line trains.

Overall, Metro officials say, the

changes are going to help a lot more

riders than they hurt. The staff’s

rough estimate is that 108,000

riders will benefit from service

increases and time savings. That

accounts for 43 percent of the trips

made at peak periods.

Orange Line riders in North-

ern Virginia who have to let sev-

eral inbound trains pass them by

in the morning before they find

space to cram aboard should find

less crowding, thanks to three more

trains per hour at peak periods

from West Falls Church.

The transit staff estimates that

16,000 riders, or about 6 percent of

those traveling at peak periods, will

be inconvenienced. A third of the

Blue Line trains will become Yel-

low Line trains at rush hour.

That’s not a problem for those

who board at the Franconia-Spring-

field terminal and make the short

trip to Crystal City or the Pentagon.

It is an issue for those who go on

to Rosslyn, Foggy Bottom or Far-

ragut West. There will be fewer Blue

Line trains at rush hour serving

the eastern side of the line. ROBERT

Tourmobile Ends Its 42-Year Run

A Tourmobile tram drives tourists through Arlington National Cemetery in 2010.

After 42 years of service around

Washington’s monuments and

attractions, Tourmobile will make

its final laps around the area on

Monday, and it’s not clear when

another service will start hosting

the guided tours.

Tourmobile said on its website

that it “will cease all tour oper-

ations on Monday, October, 31,”

and the National Park Service

issued a statement noting “con-

clusion of Tourmobile service” on

that date.

The National Park Service

announced in August that it was

unlikely to renew its contract

with Tourmobile, and Park Ser-

vice spokesman Bill Line said

Friday that the sightseeing bus

company was in “tough straits”

financially. On Sept. 1, the com-

pany told its workers that Tour-

mobile would cease tour opera-

“This is a bittersweet time for

the [Park Service] and Tourmo-

Bank of America may start offering ways for customers to avoid debit card fees.

Chase and Wells Fargo are join-

ing the list of banks that won’t be

charging customers to use their

debit cards, as the backlash over

Bank of America’s planned $5

monthly fee continues.

The retail banking arm of

JPMorgan Chase & Co. will stop

charging $3-per-month fees for

using debit cards when its current

pilot in Wisconsin and Georgia is

completed in November, a source

said. The individual asked not to

be identified because the bank has

not officially announced that the

program will not go forward.

Chase, which operates in 23

states, began its test in February.

And it’s not alone in rethink-

ing its actions. Wells Fargo & Co.

began a similar pilot in five states

on Oct. 14, testing a flat $3 fee for

using debit cards for purchases. On

Chase, Wells Fargo drop charges; BofA backlash continues

Friday, it also announced that it is

cancelling its test program.

The backlash hasn’t gone unno-

ticed by other banks.

Huntington National Bank,

Ally Bank, USAA and, on Fri-

day, TD Bank are among those

that are publicizing that they will

not charge debit card fees. And

institutions such as CDC Federal

Credit Union in Atlanta are send-

ing emails out with “No Debit

Card Fees” in the subject line to

entice people to move their money.

Study: Tablet Users Don’t Want to Pay for News

Although tablet owners spend

more time consuming news than

poking around on Facebook,

they’re reluctant to pay for news

content.

That’s according to a study

from the Pew Research Center’s

Project for Excellence in Journal-

ism, due out on Tuesday. It found

that 11 percent of American adults

own a tablet of some kind, and a

majority of them spend 90 min-

utes a day using the device.

Consuming news is one of the

most popular activities, up there

with email and

more popular than

social network-

ing. Only gener-

a l Web-brows-

ing proved more

popular on tablets

than reading news

and email.

Even so, just 14

percent of tablet

users said they have paid for news

content on their tablets. Another

compared to last year

that Target will open for Black Friday this year. The retail

giant’s doors will welcome eager shoppers at midnight on

Thanksgiving Day and will stay open for 23 hours, closing at

11 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 25. Target spokeswoman Susan Kahn said

the change was a response to customers’ demands. (AP)

23 percent, though, pay for a print

subscription that includes tablet

content. So, in all, about a third

of tablet users have paid to access

news on their gadgets.

“That is a much higher number

than previous research has found

more broadly of people paying for

digital content,” the report says.

Nonetheless, a “large majority” of

people who have not paid for news

are “reluctant to do so, even if that

was the only way to get news from

their favorite sources,” the report

adds. BARBARA ORTUTAY (AP)

Listless effort results in the first shutout of Shanahan’s career

BEST CALL: In the first quarter,

Shanahan had a chance to keep

some momentum by going for a

4th down from midfield. He smart-

ly opted against.

WORST CALL: After a gift fumble

from the Bills, the Redskins went

super-conservative with their play-

calling and suffered. They couldn’t

punch it in, even with a short field.

WORST ADJUSTMENT: The Bills

managed to sack John Beck nine

times in the game, from the first to

the fourth quarter. Nothing changed.

If you don’t score and give

up the second-most points

of the year, you have failed.

Ryan Fitzpatrick quickly made his

expensive new contract pay off, and

the Buffalo Bills finally gave their

adopted — and sometimes indif-

something big to cheer about.

Fitzpatrick hit tight end Scott

the Bills’ defense had nine sacks

and two interceptions to batter

the already injury-riddled Wash-

ington Redskins in a 23-0 win at

Toronto on Sunday.

Coming out of their bye week,

the Bills (5-2) matched their best

start since 2008, improved to 4-0 at

“home,” and won a regular-season

game at Toronto for the first time

in four trips since the cross-border

series was established in 2008.

Running back Fred Jackson

continued to pile up yards, finish-

ing with 120 yards rushing, and 74

receiving. With 1,074 yards from

scrimmage, he became only the

fourth Bills player to surpass 1,000

yards seven games into a season,

and the first since Hall of Famer

Thurman Thomas in 1991.

Fitzpatrick, who signed a six-

year, $59 million contract on Friday,

a big hit from linebacker London

Fletcher — to finish 21 of 27 for 262

Without running back Tim

second half as they were shut out for

the first time since a 17-0 home loss

The eight-year veteran turned in what

could be considered a vintage perfor-

mance for the Rams, who were with-

out regular QB Sam Bradford. Jack-

son ran for 159 yards on 26 carries and

found the end zone twice.

Adam Jones, CB, Bengals: “Pacman” injured his right

hamstring in his first game back since last year’s neck injury.

Hines Ward, WR, Steelers: Ward was placed on the in-

active list for Sunday’s game due to an ankle injury.

Hakeem Nicks, WR, Giants: The receiver couldn’t fin-

ish Sunday’s game after tweaking his hamstring.

Blaine Gabbert, QB, Jaguars: The rookie injured his

ribs early Sunday and returned, though the Jags still lost.

The number of games Redskins coach Mike Shanahan has coached in his career. Sunday’s loss to the Bills was his first shutout.

The Ravens’ deficit on Sunday before staging a franchise-best come-back to beat the Cardi-nals. The Ravens’ previ-ous best rally was from 19 points behind.

The number of points that the Texans have outscored each of their divisional opponents this season so far. Hous-ton beat Jacksonville, 24-14, on Sunday.

Nate Washington of the Tennessee Titans celebrates as he scores a touchdown at LP Field on Sunday in a 27-10 division win over the Colts.

The last couple years of competi-

tive racing have been, at times, a

struggle for Charles “Chad” Ware.

Recurring stomach problems some-

times hampered the Wheeling, Ill.,

resident and forced him to slow his

pace, even forcing him to stop dur-

ing races completely.

In Sunday’s 36th Marine Corps

Marathon, Ware was hoping to just

take it easy and see how he felt as

he ran. But by halfway through the

26.2-mile race, Ware was still in the

lead group and felt great, so he kept

churning and opponents fell behind.

No stomach problems flared as Ware

finished with his first major mara-

thon win and an unofficial time of

2 hours, 19 minutes, 16 seconds, a per-

sonal best by nearly 90 seconds and

the race’s best time in 14 years.

Ware, who made a run at notch-

ing a 2012 Olympic trials qualifying

time of 2:19 once he realized he was

close to reaching it, fell only seconds

Runners pass the Lincoln Memorial during the Marine Corps Marathon on Sunday.

short of doing so. The final hill, in

the last mile before the finish line

near Arlington National Cemetery,

slowed him down just enough.

“Maybe if that wasn’t there, I

would have been able to qualify for

the trials,” said Ware, a first lieuten-

ant in the Army and a member of

the Army running team.

Tezata Dengersa, 30, of Turkey,

won the women’s division with an

unofficial time of 2:45:28 — a 6:20

mile pace. Emily Shertzer, 31 of Jon-

estown, Pa., competing in her sec-

ond marathon, finished in second

place in 2:45:55. Getachew Shifer-

aw, 27, of Ethiopia, finished third in

2:47:30. Dengersa led for the entire

race that began in Arlington and

snaked through Georgetown and his-

oeuvre (say it like a Will Ferrell

character might: oooooovuh) of the

44-year-old “Saturday Night Live”

alum turned box-office star.

“Tonight, we only need to be

PBS funny,” talk-show host Conan

O’Brien told the audience, which

means “not as funny as Jim Leh-

rer. So far, bingo.”

Ferrell “makes you laugh so

hard you cry and pee at the same

time,” said actor Jack Black, who

kicked off the show with one of

his over-the-top rock scats

with a ’70s, Freddie Mercu-

ry-esque interpretation of

“We Will Rock You,” rejig-

gered as “Will will, Will will

rock you.”

The show, which airs

tonight on PBS at 9, includ-

ed tributes from Paul Rudd,

Molly Shannon, Andy Sam-

berg, Ed Asner, Matthew

Broderick, John C. Reilly, Ben

Stiller — oh, it goes on: “Green

Day’s Billie Joe Armstrong!”

intoned the announcer at the start

of the two-hour show, almost “SNL”

Don Pardo style, followed imme-

diately by “Gwen Ifill.”

“If you are a fan of the

[‘SNL’] sketch ‘cowbell,’ you

have got to tell Will,” Sam-

berg told the audience, since

the entire world still begs him

for “more cowbell.”

Not Weird at AllElisabetta Canalis says George Clooney was like a father

Wish I Was ThereOf course, not all of Will Fer-rell’s colleagues could attend the Washington ceremony. So the people at Funny or Die asked Amy Poehler and Zach Galifi-anakis and a handful of other funny people to celebrate the man with their favorite mem-ory. In the process of sharing the touching notes Ferrell sent them, only Larry David discovers the shocking(ly hilarious) truth: they were form letters. Watch the clip at Funnyordie.com. (TWP)

Hail the WaleThe Friday after this one is, of course, Nov. 11, 2011. The date

11/11/11 is exciting for eschatologists

and obsessive-compulsive types, but

more so for the Corduroy Apprecia-

tion Club. Yes, Corduroy (the club re-

quests that the name

be capitalized), that

noble fabric, has an

ancient (since 2005)

society dedicated

solely to its praise. The

Corduroy Appreciation

society’s mascot is a

whale named Roy du

Cord, facing left. Corduroy’s ridges are

known as “wale.” These two facts may

be related. The club celebrates twice

yearly, on 1/1 and 11/11, since these

dates resemble Corduroy’s weave.

11/11/11 is the most Corduroy-friendly

date this century.

So, how to celebrate? The Corduroy

Appreciation Society will be meeting

(obviously) at Room 11 (3234 11th St.

NW) at 7 p.m. the Friday night after this

one. The usual food and drinks will be

available, but to make sure you get in

at all, reserve free tickets at Cordu-

royclubdc.eventbrite.com. Remember:

There is no point in showing up wear-

ing fewer than two items of Corduroy

clothing. You will be turned away. If you

want clemency, try the Tweed Ride on

Nov. 13. They may take pity on you.

I dismissed the Bourbon Cream Soda, one of the new fall cocktails ($12.50 each) at Firefly (1310 New Hampshire Ave. NW), but the cin-namon, soda, vanilla and bourbon concoction is heinously addictive. Go try one — happy hour is 4 p.m.- 7p.m. weekdays and features $5 snacks.

The point was to celebrate a man

who has ingeniously employed over-

exuberance as a way to play charac-

ters who are overexuberant, delu-

sional and emotionally unhinged.

Ferrell made the evening his

own when he was presented with

this “fabulous Mark Twain bust.”

Which he promptly “dropped.” It

shattered on the floor (not to worry,

it was a fake). A perfect opportunity

for an awkward, bombastic accep-

tance riff from Ferrell. “If my chil-

dren try to touch [the award],” he

said, after attempting to piece it

back together, “I will beat them.”

HANK STUEVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

In comedy, the brutal and foul-

mouthed roast is where it’s at.

Then there’s the Kennedy Cen-

ter’s annual Mark Twain Prize,

which is gentle, like

a blankie fresh out

of the dryer. Last

weekend, it was

Will Ferrell’s turn to

be swaddled in it, as

his cohorts and costars

turned out to honor the

The Plot’s the ThingJeffrey Eugenides’ long-awaited third novel,

“The Marriage Plot,” is the story of three col-

lege students dealing with Victorian lit-

erature and love — not in the Anne

Hathaway movie way, but rather

in a deeply unsettling way that

wryly examines the emotion-

al difficulties inherent in grad-

uating and finding one’s way in

the world. Sixth and I Historic Synagogue, 600 I St. NW; 7 p.m.,

Not All Who Wander Are LostIf you’ve never heard Dead

Meadow’s music before, it might

strike you as the kind of songs that

play during movie sequences depict-

ing first-time drug experiences.

Everything slows down; it’s like you’re

hearing the mellow folk through a

thick curtain. It’s stoner geek music

at its best, complete with nerdy lyr-

ics referencing J.R.R. Tolkien and

Hoppy HalloweenThe Dogfish Head Halloween

party definitely caters to every-

one in your family — just not all at once.

The brewery will host trick-or-treat-

ing early (4 p.m. to 6 p.m.). Halloween

Pint Night starts at 7 p.m. (that’s

when you send the kids home), when

your first beer gets you a free pint

glass. After that, local rock band

Fight the Lion will play, and the ale

will flow. Dogfish Head Alehouse, 13041 Lee Jackson Memorial Highway, Fairfax; 7 p.m., free; 703-961-1140, Dogfishalehouse.com.

The Onion’s serious side, the A.V.

Club, is following its comic breth-

ren into video.

Last Thursday, the pop cul-

ture website and Onion newspa-

per insert debuted “One Track

Mind,” a Web series in which song-

writers discuss writing a particu-

lar tune and then perform it. The

first of the 10 videos features Wye

Oak indie band singer and gui-

tarist Jenn Wasner. Other videos

will feature Ben Folds, Matthew

Sweet and Annie Clark, who uses

the name St. Vincent.

“One Track Mind” also will play

interstitially on IFC, airing ahead

of Saturday night movies begin-

ning Nov. 5.

It’s a small foothold in broadcast,

but the medium leap reflects the A.V.

Club’s growing multimedia pres-

ence. The Chicago-based A.V. Club,

a taste-making destination of pop

culture criticism and interviews, is

the sober companion to the satiri-

cal headlines of the Onion.

“The through-line — and I’ll be

careful, not to be too immodest — is

that we’re both really smart,” says

Their schedules are hard to mesh

and match, but the four bluegrass

and classical musicians who made

“The Goat Rodeo Sessions” are

hoping their collaboration will

continue in the future.

“We had a really great time

doing it, but there’s a lot more depth

there that we could plumb,” says

cellist Yo-Yo Ma, who joined forc-

es with mandolinist Chris Thile

(Nickel Creek, Punch Brothers),

fiddler Stuart Duncan and bassist

Edgar Meyer on the 11-track set. “I

think everyone has very different

types of schedules. ... But I think

where there’s a will, there’s a way,

so we’ll see.”

The roots of “The Goat Rodeo

Sessions” were planted when Thile

and Meyer began working together

more than a decade ago. Meyer sug-

gested that Yo-Yo Ma bring Thile on

from Redbox starting Oct. 31.

Rentals previously cost $1 per night.

Redbox said that it picked a 20-cent increase “to best offset

expenses, while keeping our value commitment to our customers.”

Prices will remain the same for Blu-ray discs, currently $1.50 per

day, and for games, which currently cost $2 per day.

Josh Modell, general manager of the

A.V. Club, of the sister publications.

“Both the Onion and the A.V. Club

don’t dumb things down.”

“One Track Mind” is the A.V.

Club’s fifth original video series, fol-

lowing shows such as “A.V. Under-

cover,” in which 25 bands covered 25

songs; and “Pop Pilgrims,” a travel

series about visiting the settings of

films, TV shows and books.

“We feel like we’ve had in the

last 18 months a lot of success with

just a few shows and introduced

our audience to a visual compo-

nent,” Modell says.

The A.V. Club also recently

shot a pilot for a series that pairs

an Patton Oswalt, is successful, it

“Songs of Joy and Peace,” and the

cellist expressed an interest in work-

ing together again. Thile and Meyer

suggested Duncan as a fourth ingre-

dient, and the ad hoc group jelled

from the first rehearsal.

The quartet recently appeared

on NBC’s “The Tonight Show With

Jay Leno” and are slated to perform

on the Nov. 1 edition of Comedy

Central’s “The Colbert Report.”

There are discussions about a full-

scale concert that will be simul-

cast or taped.

“It’s great to make a record-

ing,” Yo-Yo Ma says. “But it’s great

to also play for a live audience.”

As they’ve done for the

past few Halloweens, Jason Hawes, Grant Wilson and their colleagues

from the Atlantic Paranormal Society investigate an allegedly haunted

site. This year it’s the Pennhurst Asylum, a former institution for peo-

ple with mental and physical disabilities located outside Philadelphia.

Jake

(Angus T. Jones, shown) is attract-

ed to the girl who’s tutoring him in

chemistry, but she has her eye on

Walden (Ashton Kutcher). Mean-

while, Alan (Jon Cryer) obsesses

over the journal that Charlie left him.

This 1968 horror tale from

George Romero has become a cult classic. Radiation causes the dead

to rise from their graves and go in search of sustenance: human flesh.

If you haven’t seen it and think that because of its age, it can’t be that

scary or gory compared to recent cinematic fare, think again.

Spooky ReunionYears ago at a “How I Met Your Mother” (8 p.m., CBS) Hallow-een party, Ted met a young woman he remembers only as the Slutty Pumpkin. His quest to find her again comes to an end with her long-awaited return (in the form of guest star Katie Holmes, shown). (TM)

Debuting Halloween night, the newsmagazine “Rock Center” will buck the recent trend of sin-

gle-topic newsmagazines such as “Date-line NBC” and present multiple stories each week by anchor Brian Williams and his NBC News colleagues. “You will very quickly feel a destination when you watch it,” Williams promised. DAVID BAUDER (AP)

wed in a semiformal ceremony

with 150 friends and family in at-

tendance.

HOW THEY MET: At a jazz club in the

Hilton in McLean, Va. Kim’s sister-

in-law wanted her brother, Rod, to

meet Kim.

FIRST DATE: At a KFC. “We were

just hanging out and decided to

stop there, so I didn’t consider it

a date. But whenever we pass the

same KFC, we call it our first date.”

HOW HE PROPOSED: First, with a

“pre-engagement” ring until he

could get the ring of Kim’s dreams.

Officially, he proposed in front of

family and friends at a Labor Day

cookout.

THEIR SONG: “You’re the One” by

Hallerin Hill and Lisa Shipman, “be-

cause we both feel we are perfect

for one another.”

Rebecca, 32, is an administrative assistant. Josh, 33, is a footwear manager. They live in D.C.

Sherry, 26, is a systems engineer. Ryan, 25, is a mechanical design engineer. They live in Leesburg, Va.

Kim, 53, works for the USDA. Rod, 49, is a contractor for the Maryland State Highway Administration. They will live in Hyattsville, Md.

was supposed to get set up with

her friend. The friend snubbed him,

but Becca, playing wingwoman,

reached out. “He was refreshingly

nerdy, which is what really piqued

my interest.”

FIRST DATE: “I had her over to my

mom’s house to watch a movie. It

was just like high school.”

HOW HE PROPOSED: They were at

his parents’ house in San Antonio,

Texas, for Christmas; he gave her

a pair of plane tickets to see her

parents in D.C., where they lived at

the time, for later that day. When

they finally landed, he popped the

question in front of the National

Christmas Tree.

THEIR SONG: “40 Dogs” by Bob

Schneider.

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: Him: “What a

breathtaking girl!” Her: “We seemed

to get along and had much in com-

mon.”

FIRST DATE: The first time they

spent an evening together as a

couple was at a Caps game, but their

first “romantic” date was dinner at

Bella Mozart in Fairfax. He’d asked

her out over IM at work.

HOW HE PROPOSED: After a hot air

balloon ride, breakfast, a limo ride

and a winery tour in Napa Valley,

Calif. “I haven’t planned anything in

my life that went absolutely flaw-

lessly — until my proposal,” Ryan

says. “It was perfect, just like her.”

MOST-HATED CLOTHING ITEM: The

plaid shirts “he’s had since high

school.”

STUPIDEST FIGHT: Whether gas

prices are too high in the U.S.

WHEN SHE KNEW: When he met

her family, even before they

began dating. “They loved him off

the bat.”

— A COMMENTER AT HOLLYWOO-DREPORTER.COM is glad to

hear that Keenen Ivory Wayans will pro-

duce two half-hour specials based on his classic

sketch comedy series “In Living Color” for Fox, set to

air in the spring of 2012.

“So the program sounds nothing like ‘Jersey Shore’ — more ‘like

something between C-Span for cool kids crossed with

Politically Incorrect without a moderator.’ Given that the 2012 election in itself, with its near-weekly debates and the affinity one develops for the characters

as the months [roll] along, is already looking a bit like a

reality show itself, [it] may not be all that farfetched an idea.”

— MEDIAITE.COM thinks that the new show idea by “Jersey Shore” casting director Doron Ofir, “Party Politics”

— featuring 21- to 35-year-olds living together and discussing politics —

could be a hit.

— @WHATNOWANDWHY tweet-ed about the unusual October

snowstorm that hit the Washington region on

Saturday.— DCSOCIALITE.COM had a less-than pleasant experience with the staff at the Fillmore on Saturday night when seeing Chromeo perform at

the Silver Spring venue.

“Elevator etiquette is to wait for the next one. This

kind of thing is an epidemic in New York; people have no concept of waiting for

the next elevator or subway when one is packed; it’s all

about them.”

— A COMMENTER AT DAILYMAIL.CO.UK reacts to the story of a packed elevator that malfunctioned

at the Gramercy Park Hotel in Manhattan, sending a group of 14 actors and directors plum-

meting eight floors after a film premiere party last week.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You are

feeling quite confident, and yet there is

something you don’t know that could

make all the difference when fully

revealed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Others are likely to spot your weak point

today — but you needn’t worry that they

will take advantage of it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You can

express yourself in ways that will win

over a large portion of those who have

been doubtful or even critical of you in

the past.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) You may

be identified today as someone who

can help others rise above that which is

keeping them somehow reined in.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) Focus on

those issues that are raised by others in

times of stress; they are likely to reveal

much that you need to know.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) A surprise is

in store for you if you expect everything

to go off without a hitch. Surprises span

a wide range today.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) Specifics

matter perhaps more than usual, so

be sure to answer with specifics when

asked even routine questions.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) Your per-

ception of time is likely to differ dra-

matically from that of another — and

the resulting conflict may be some-

what harrowing.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) A mem-

ber of the opposite sex may be the

only person able to lead you out of

the maze of obstacles you find your-

self in today.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) You’re trying too

hard to figure out another’s motives,

when what he or she is doing benefits

you on virtually every level.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may not

have at your disposal the information

you were expecting to use today — so

you’re going to have to solve a puzzle on

your own.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Prioritize

today, or you’ll find yourself dealing

with things in a manner that is not con-

ducive to progress of any kind.
