Jesse Matthew is charged in Fairfax sex assault case

expressline

Fairfax County to face charges. The fresh charges stem from an attack on a 26-year-old woman that occurred as she was walking home from a supermarket. Police said the woman was grabbed from behi nd about 10 p.m. and carMatthew ried to a nearby wooded area, where she was assaulted. The suspect then fled. Law enforcement officials had previously announced a forensic link between the Fairfax City rape case and the 2009 disappearance of Morgan Harrington, a 20-year-old Virginia Tech student who vanished after attending a concert on the

U-Va. campus. Matthew has not been charged in that case. The development in Fairfax City comes two days after police announced that they had discovered remains believed to be Graham’s on an abandoned property in Albemarle County. Authorities said they are awaiting forensics tests from the Virginia medical examiner before definitively identifying the body. Police on Monday continued to search the area. The vacant property, 12 miles southwest of Charlottesville, is about 5 miles from where police found Harrington’s body in a hay field. JUSTIN JOUVENAL AND T. REES SHAPIRO (THE WASHINGTON POST)

Om-ward bound ‘Mindful’ commuters say deep breaths keep them calm during stressful journeys

TRANSPORTATION As harried commuters boarded a Metro Red Line train — jockeying for seats, hoisting bulging bags — Denise Keyes gazed straight ahead, took deep breaths and searched for inner peace. There were no lit candles, no incense, no chanting of “om.” But Keyes was meditating. Finding stillness on a subway during rush hour might sound impossible. But those who practice “mindful commuting” swear it brings tranquility to the daily misery of crowded trains, late buses and traffic jams. If it sounds too New-Agey, consider this: Almost 2 million people use one meditation-onthe-go app, and plenty of others are downloading what has been a recent explosion of guided meditation podcasts and Web recordings. Others, like Keyes, take mindfulness classes. “It gets me into the mind-set I want to be in for work,” said

Sexual assaults in Dupont Circle, Georgetown under investigation

Keyes, who lives in Bethesda and is a senior associate dean at Georgetown University’s School of Continuing Studies. “I want to be somebody who — not to sound all Oprah — but I want to be my best self. I want to be compassionate and really listen to people. This helps me do that.” Keyes has plenty of company. Andy Puddicombe, who created the Headspace meditation app in 2012, added guided commuting meditations this year. About 1.7 million people have listened to the guided meditations on the website and app, he said. “We know increasingly people are looking for ways to incorporate mindfulness into their daily routines,” Puddicombe said. “Commuting is just a really simple and obvious way.” Those who walk or ride Metro or the bus often practice formal meditation: focusing on their breathing, noticing when their minds wander and repeatedly

Mindful commuting tips FOCUS ON YOUR SURROUNDINGS:

Turn your attention from when you’ll get to your destination to what you notice via your senses, like sounds, the feel of your feet on the ground, or places in your body that feel tense. FOCUS ON YOUR BREATH: If you’re not driving or riding a bike, take five slow, deep breaths. Then return to normal breathing, but try to notice each breath. REFOCUS YOUR THOUGHTS: Use red lights or stops on a train or bus as a reminder to notice whether you’re lost in thought. Then refocus on your breathing or your senses. (TWP)

returning to their breathing as a way to “train” their attention. Those who drive or ride a bike say they practice mindfulness, an informal kind of meditation aimed at increasing awareness. They focus on sights, sounds and physical sensations that root them in the present rather than in their topsy-turvy minds.

Clerk shot in robbery at Alexandria gas station

There’s no specific research on the impact of mindfulness on commuters’ emotions or behavior, experts say. However, they say it’s logical that the general health benefits of mindfulness discovered in years of scientific studies — lower blood pressure, improved concentration, reduced anxiety and depression — would transfer to a calmer, more clearminded ride. Transportation experts say anything that keeps people at ease and focused could help curb aggressive driving, prevent road rage and reduce distractionrelated accidents. While other Red Line passengers were absorbed in cellphones and newspapers Wednesday, Keyes was paying attention to her breath. As thoughts popped up — the whirring sound of the train tracks, the day’s busy schedule, an upcoming meeting — she let each drift past before her mind could latch on, she said. Her body swayed gently with the train in a personal sea of tranquility. KATHERINE SHAVER (THE WASHINGTON POST)

health Water laced with salt and sugar, and gallons of the nasty-tasting stuff. Doctors who survived Ebola in Nigeria credited heavy doses of fluids with saving their lives as the World Health Organization declared the country Ebola-free Monday, a rare victory in the battle against the disease that is ravaging West Africa. In the end, Nigeria — the most populous country in Africa, with 160 million people — had just 20 cases, including eight deaths, a lower death rate than the 70 percent seen elsewhere across the stricken region. Officials are crediting strong tracking and isolation of people exposed to the virus, and aggressive rehydration of infected patients to counter the effects of vomiting, diarrhea and other symptoms. Nigeria’s containment of Ebola is a “spectacular success story,” said Rui Gama Vaz, WHO director for Nigeria. Survivor Dr. Adaora Igonoh said the treatment is not easy. It entails drinking, as she did, at least five liters (1.3 gallons) of the salt and sugar

People in Suruc, Turkey, watch fighting Monday across the border in Kobani, Syria.

Turkey agrees to let Kurds join militant fight Reversal in policy comes after U.S. drops supplies to help besieged Kobani combat the Islamic State KOBANI, SYRIA Turkey said it was helping Iraqi Kurdish fighters cross into Syria to support their brethren fighting Islamic State militants in a key border town, although activists inside embattled Kobani said no forces had arrived by Monday evening, raising questions about whether the mission was really underway. The statement by Turkey’s Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu came hours after the U.S. airdropped weapons and ammunition to resupply Kurdish fighters for the first time. Those airdrops Sunday followed weeks of airstrikes by a U.S.-led

coalition in and near Kobani. “We are helping peshmerga forces to enter into Kobani to give support,” Cavusoglu said at a news conference, referring to the security forces of the largely autonomous Kurdish region of northern Iraq. The Kurdish government there is known to be friendly to the Turkish government. A peshmerga spokesman said he had not been ordered to move units to Syria. The Kurdish activists in Kobani said there was no sign of any peshmerga forces. Still, it was unprecedented for Turkey to promise to give Kurds passage to fight in Syria. That, combined with the U.S.

airdrops, reflected the importance assigned to protecting Kobani from the Sunni extremists of the Islamic State, which has rampaged across Iraq and Syria in recent months. Meanwhile, in Iraq, Islamic State militants advanced on Mount Sinjar on Monday, seizing two villages and blocking roads as besieged fighters from the minority Yazidi sect pleaded for U.S.-led airstrikes to save them. The extremist gains around Mount Sinjar strike a blow to the international campaign against the Islamic State. In August, President Barack Obama authorized airstrikes in Iraq to address the plight of thousands of Yazidis trapped on Sinjar in the face of an initial militant onslaught. (AP/THE WASHINGTON POST)

WASHINGTONPOST.COM THE FIX

Not all government agencies keep track of the practice, and those reviewed account for only about three-fifths of the federal workforce. The Office of Personnel Management rule book lists dozens of reasons for allowing paid leave, such as donating an organ, househunting before a job transfer and snow days. But these require only a few hours or days — not the months and years that GAO discovered are common at more than 100 federal agencies. “It’s not authorized by any law,” said Sen. Charles E. Grassley, R-Iowa, referring to the cases that drag on. “Bureaucrats are abusing it.” Grassley, one of three senators who requested the GAO report, is working with Sen. Jon Tester, D-Mont., on legislation that would narrowly define the circumstances in which employees can be kept home. Pay would be limited to a few days, congressional aides said.

New Washington Post-ABC News polling on the 2016 Republican presidential race makes one thing very clear: Every GOPer who has even a hint of ambition for national office is likely to run in two years. Why? Because the field is remarkably frontrunner-less, meaning that every Ted, John and Rob can make a plausible case to activists and donors that they are going to eventually be the guy. When asked whom they would vote for if Mitt Romney doesn’t run, respondents who leaned Republican were all over the map. Jeb Bush won 15 percent of their votes, followed by Rand Paul (12 percent), and Mike Huckabee (11 percent), Paul Ryan (8 percent) and Marco Rubio (also 8 percent). A grand total of 13 candidates took somewhere between 15 percent and 1 percent of the vote. Another 14 percent of respondents want someone else or have no opinion. This is a historically wideopen Republican field. So, if you are, say, Ohio Gov. John Kasich (2 percent), Texas Sen. Ted Cruz (4 percent) or Ohio Sen. Rob Portman (0 percent) or really anyone else with an “R” after your name, you should look at this poll and think: I have a decent shot at being the Republican presidential nominee in 2016. Because, you do.

LISA REIN (THE WASHINGTON POST)

CHRIS CILLIZZA

Over three years, the Defense Department put nearly 900 employees on leave for three months to a year and 123 for even longer, a GAO report said.

On notice, with pay Federal workers put on forced leave cost taxpayers $775 million in salary, GAO says POLITICS Tens of thousands of federal workers are being kept on paid leave for at least a month — and often for stretches that can reach a year or more — while they wait to be punished for misbehavior or cleared and allowed to return to work, government records show. During a three-year period that ended last fall, more than 57,000 employees were sent home for a month or longer. The tab for these workers exceeded $775 million in salary alone. The extensive use of so-called administrative leave continues despite government personnel rules that limit paid leave for employees facing discipline to “rare circumstances” in which the employee is considered a threat. The long-standing rules were written in an effort to curb waste and deal quickly with workers accused of misconduct. But a forthcoming report by the Government Accountability Office — the first time auditors have calculated the scope and

cost of administrative leave — found that supervisors used wide discretion in putting employees on leave, including for alleged violations of government rules and laws, whistleblowing, doubts about trustworthiness, and disputes with colleagues or bosses. Some employees remain on paid leave while they challenge demotions and other punishments. While the employees stayed home, they not only collected paychecks but accrued pension earnings, vacation and sick days, and moved up the federal pay scale. “Six months went by and we didn’t hear anything,” said Scott Balovich, who was put on administrative leave from his job at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in Alaska. “You’re so anxious. You don’t know if you’ve got a job. You’re getting paid, but it’s no vacation.” Balovich was kept out of work while investigators examined how pornographic images had gotten onto his computer hard drive. He ultimately was cleared

Paid and off THE OFFICIAL POLICY: An employee facing disciplinary action “will remain in a duty status” except in “rare circumstances” when he or she poses a threat to himself or others, is at risk of stealing government property or jeopardizes “legitimate government interests.” WHAT THE REPORT FOUND: A Government Accountability Office report found that 53,000 civilian employees were kept home for one to three months during the three fiscal years that ended in September 2013. About 4,000 more were kept off the job for three months to a year and several hundred for one to three years. (TWP)

RICK SNIDER | SPORTS GURU

Jobs up for grabs: Who wants to be QBs of the future? San Francisco. McCoy was supposed to be an afterthought this season. Instead, he’s the Redskins’ best hope against their rival Cowboys. Washington is past “must-win” games at 2-5, so Griffin needn’t hurry back. The rest of the season is about deciding whether Griffin is the long-term starter, and also if McCoy can be his backup after the meltdown by Kirk Cousins. Cousins’ star has fallen faster than Nationals reliever Drew Storen’s. Fans thought Cousins could be the permanent starter over Griffin after he threw five touchdowns in a relief win over Jacksonville and a narrow loss to Philadelphia. Fans were talking “RG Who?” until Cousins started creating turnovers faster than Sara Lee. He threw four interceptions against the Giants and three to Arizona during a four-game losing streak. When he threw another pick on Sunday against Tennessee — one that led to a Titans touchdown that gave them a 10-6 lead — Gruden surrendered and started McCoy in

JEFFREY TOMIK (EXPRESS) TONI L. SANDYS (THE WASHINGTON POST)

The Redskins aren’t just seeking a starting quarterback for next season. Now they’re looking for a backup, too. Third-stringer Colt McCoy is in line to be the Redskins’ starter against the Cowboys on Monday night. While Robert Griffin III is expected to practice this week after missing five games with a dislocated ankle, coach Jay Gruden said earlier that two weeks would be needed to ready Griffin. But the third-year passer, who hasn’t been ruled out as this week’s starter, has always been a fast healer so who knows when he’ll return. Meanwhile, McCoy has a real chance to be the No. 2 quarterback next season after he rallied Washington to a 19-17 victory over Tennessee on Sunday. McCoy was 11 of 12 in the second half against the Titans, which was nearly as many pass attempts (18) as he had the past two years combined in Cleveland and

Peyton Manning now holds the NFL record with 510 career passing TDs. Among active QBs, Drew Brees is second with 136 fewer TDs. Here are other Manning records that also will be tough to break.

3 Game-winning drives Manning: 51

Right now, Manning is tied with Dan Marino for most alltime. Tom Brady is the next active QB on the list, and he is nine back.

the second half. Cousins has morphed into Rex Grossman, the exRedskins quarterback who was known for alternating touchdowns with turnovers. Cousins has 18 touchdowns and 19 interceptions over three seasons. With 2015 his final year under contract, the Redskins may decide to move on if McCoy plays well. As for Cousins’ once-perceived high trade value, it’s now gone. And Griffin? He needs to avoid another injury and not look lost in Gruden’s system during the second half of the season, or next spring the

Redskins may once again use their high first-round pick on a passer. Griffin looked comfortable in the scheme against Jacksonville before he was injured, so maybe the coach is becoming more familiar with the passer’s skill set. Washingtonians love quarterback competitions, and in the next few weeks they’ll find out if the Redskins have a starter and backup for the future — or nothing at all. Rick Snider has covered sports in Washington since 1978. Follow him on Twitter @Snide_Remarks

2 Sack percentage Manning: 3.11%

No quarterback has a better internal clock than Manning, who has been sacked an NFL-low 3.11 percent of times he’s attempted a pass.

1 Passing TDs (season) Manning: 55 in 2013

Manning averaged nearly 3.5 TDs per game last season. Only three other QBs have ever thrown more than 45 TDs in a season.

Orakpo out for the season

Linebacker Brian Orakpo is expected to miss the remainder of the season after learning that he indeed tore his right pectoral muscle in Sunday’s win over the Tennessee Titans, a person with knowledge of the situation confirmed. It’s the third such injury that the former first-round pick has suffered in his six-year career. Orakpo tore the left pectoral muscle at the end of the 2011 season, and then tore the same muscle two games into the 2012 campaign.

This matchup between the Royals and Giants marks the first World Series in a full season in which both teams won fewer than 90 games. One of them will become the sixth wild card to win a title. As the series opens tonight (8:07 p.m., Fox), here are five storylines to watch. (AP)

Lights out late

Both teams rely on stingy bullpens, so runs could be hard to come by in the late innings. This postseason for the Royals, Greg Holland has six saves and a 1.13 ERA, Wade Davis is 2-0 with a 0.96 ERA, and Kelvin Herrera has a 1.08 ERA. For the Giants, Jeremy Affeldt has made 18 straight scoreless appearances in the postseason, Santiago Casilla 17 and Javier Lopez 15.

Strong start

The Giants’ Game 1 starter, Madison Bumgarner, is 5-3 with a 2.67 ERA in 11 postseason games and has thrown 15 scoreless innings in World Series play. Kansas City will turn to James Shields, a rare Royals player with World Series experience. He pitched 5 ⅔ scoreless innings for Tampa Bay in a 2008 win over Philadelphia.

Managing expectations

Looking for his third title in five years, the understated Bruce Bochy is building a Hall of Fame résumé. In the other dugout, Ned Yost was once fired by Milwaukee in the middle of a September playoff race, and some of his curious decisions have exasperated Royals fans. Yost made all the right moves against Baltimore, though.

Good karma?

The Royals were counted out for much of the season, languishing below .500 on July 22. They were counted out again in the wild-card game before two late comebacks. Perhaps the same karma that won them Game 6 of the 1985 World Series — the infamous Don Denkinger call — has reared its head for a franchise that was downtrodden for decades.

Student Veteran Dedicated to Helping Fellow Veterans Receives Scholarship was happy to oblige.

I can’t explain it … I just knew,” said America Luna. “I was only 13 when I told my dad I would one day enlist.”

“I found myself sharing tips and telling student veterans about resources available to them,” said Luna. “Even if they were complete strangers … I wanted to help.”

As Luna grew up, her passion only grew. “After high school, I wanted to go off to college, I just wasn’t ready yet,” said Luna. “My parents were Dominican immigrants and they worked very hard to become U.S. citizens. Joining the military and making a future for myself was my way of showing them how much I appreciate their sacriﬁces.” While in the Army, Luna deployed twice to Baghdad and Maysan Province, Iraq, where she worked as an Interrogator/ Human Intelligence Collector. This role gave Luna a sense of pride and taught her to be an effective leader. Following military service, Luna was ready to go back to school. “At ﬁrst, I thought I wanted to be a police

With that, Luna decided to dedicate her life’s work to helping veterans who are transitioning out of the military. She changed her major to Human Services and served as Vice President of the Student Veterans Association (SVA) at her school, Old Dominion University. She plans to become a college advisor for student veterans. officer for the NYPD,” said Luna. “I soon realized that wasn’t what I wanted at all. I was lost. I went through the motions for the ﬁrst two years of college, still unsure.” At the same time, some of Luna’s friends were getting out of the military and returning to college. They wanted advice from someone who’d been there and she

YOU CAN COUNT ON

She had ﬁnally found her path when she had to hit the brakes. Luna’s GI Bill beneﬁts ran out right before her last semester. Fortunately, Luna heard about the VFW Sport Clips “Help A Hero Scholarship” and decided to apply.

“I was in disbelief when I got the letter,” said Luna. “I just read it over and over to be sure.” Luna was one of 43 student veterans to receive the scholarship, which gave her the opportunity to ﬁnish what she started. “It warms my heart and ﬁres up my spirit to continue to work towards a degree that means so much to me,” said Luna. “I look forward to using what I’ve learned to help my fellow veterans.” Luna is beyond grateful for the VFW, Sport Clips and all the donors and contributors who made this scholarship a reality. “I am so grateful for their encouragement,” said Luna. “They support veterans in our ambitious endeavors and their support is helping the veteran population accomplish their dreams.” Story by Jennifer Martin on behalf of the VFW Photo courtesy of Veterans of Foreign Wars

GUINEA PIG

VICKY HALLETT (EXPRESS)

A step ahead or too far? MARINE CORPS MARATHONERS CAN’T SQUEEZE IN MUCH MORE RUNNING before Sunday’s race. If they want to shave seconds off their time,

they’ll have to focus on other stuff: what they’re wearing, how they’re sleeping, what they’re eating. (Sponsor Team Beef is pushing its #BeefFuelsMCM hashtag.) Plus, there are a few more options out there that might seem, well, out-there. Chevy Chase’s new Nava Health and Vitality Center promises several sport-specific services, including IV micronutrient therapy and hyperbaric chambers, while Alexandria-based hypnotist Laura Palmer promotes her performance-boosting work. We gave all three techniques a go.

You can ingest vitamins. Or you can have them injected into your bloodstream via an IV. The latter leads to faster absorption, and (if you have a sport blend with amino acids and antioxidants for recovery and endurance) faster running speeds, according to Nava. After I signed a stack of waivers for the treatment ($375), a nurse practitioner went over my medical history and walked me through the list of possible side effects, including headaches and nausea. Most people just “feel a little pep,” she said. Then I sat in a lounge chair in Nava’s IV therapy room, which also hosts a giant TV screen in case you want to see something other than a needle sticking into your arm. I’d been warned that the process might burn, so I braced for intravenous agony. But I only had two complaints: My fingers in the stuck arm grew cold and I could taste the cocktail while hooked up. (It was tinny and citrusy.) About a half-hour later, it was all in, and I was ready to go. On my run a few hours later, I felt particularly well hydrated, and yep, some extra pep. MORGAN SCHNEIDER (EXPRESS)

There’s no swinging watch to keep your eyes on in Palmer’s form of hypnosis (aka Bridgenosis). She defines the state as just relaxed enough to clear away the “limiting beliefs” holding you back. At our one-on-one in her Old Town office, we discussed my goals and experiences, and Palmer introduced a few calming techniques. My favorite: the zip-up. Take one hand and run it up the midline of your body to your mouth while repeating a positive mantra. Her soothing voice soon had me yawning, which she said is common. Then Palmer typically has clients lie on her couch so she can give them suggestions, which they’re free to listen to consciously. Or they can drift away and let their subconscious do the work. Instead, I went home to listen to her prerecorded 18-minute race-specific hypnosis program. (Marine Corps Marathoners can get it free by emailing answers@bridgenosis.com.) She had me picture myself beside a beautiful body of water, feeling strong and … uh, I’m not sure what else. It sure stuck with me on my next run, though. Sprints never felt so zen. VICKY HALLETT (EXPRESS)

Countless athletes — including Lance Armstrong, Michael Phelps and the Nationals’ Rafael Soriano — swear by the performance benefits of hyperbaric oxygen therapy. The claim? Hanging out in an all-oxygen environment supposedly speeds up recovery. So I was about to climb into something that looked like a giant body bag. Before the treatment ($120), a Nava nurse practitioner took my vitals and checked my ears. (An infection raises the slim chance of an eardrum rupture.) I was prepped on what to expect: an airplane-like pop in my ears, a whooshing sound and occasional monitoring to make sure I’m OK. Then I stepped in, lay down and got zipped up. I worried it might feel claustrophobic, but as the chamber inflated, it grew almost roomy — I emailed on my phone no problem, then chilled out for the rest of the hour. The air inside didn’t seem much different, just more filling. I emerged in a pleasant fog, like after a deep sleep. My next run seemed normal, which wasn’t a surprise. I was told I’d need a minimum of three sessions to see results. LORI KELLEY (EXPRESS)

The 2014 Health and Fitness Expo by GE hits the DC Armory this Thursday through Saturday

There’s a methodology behind Equinox’s new Precision Running class: You pick a goal speed on a treadmill for a 30-second sprint, and spend an hour working your way up to that point, playing with incline (never higher than 5 percent) and gradually faster footwork — with plenty of recovery time mixed in. Whether you walk or run, you’ll be shocked by how much you can pick up the pace, says Jennifer Blackburn, who coaches the class at the club’s Bethesda location. The folks on either side of you supply motivation and commiseration. (EXPRESS)

fit+wellness Talk about her body language Q. My wife is self-conscious

BEN CLAASSEN III

about her body, and it’s gotten worse since she had our son. She’s developed all kinds of habits to keep me from seeing her unclothed, and she obsesses over what she wears. It’s changing her personality. I always tell her I think she looks great — and I do. But it doesn’t seem to help. SAD FOR HER

DR. ANDREA BONIOR | BAGGAGE CHECK

So as I was saying about myself … Q. Our co-worker is a narcissist. In any conversation, he

immediately jumps in to talk about himself. Needless to say, we are all exhausted. We believe that this is a part of who he is, so we’re having problems balancing being good people toward him and maintaining our sanity. How can we handle this situation in a way that is best for everyone? NEEDLED BY NARCISSIST

Ordinarily I’m not a fan of unsolicited personality critiques from co-workers, but when he has characteristics that are so off-putting that an entire swath of colleagues is writing to a psychologist, it’s better to confront him than let it fester. Try this: “Rob, can I give you a little honest feedback? Sometimes when I try to talk about something important to me, it

seems you jump in with your own stories. It can come across as being disinterested in others, and I’m not sure you’re aware of it.” Awkward, but no worse than enduring his behavior in perpetuity. If nothing changes, continue to be “good people” by being civil. Don’t reward his interruptions but instead change the topic back to what you were originally talking about.

Whether this is just new-parent self-consciousness or depression or anxiety or possibly body dysmorphic disorder, simple reassurances from you likely won’t do the trick. Depending on how far back this goes, it might be more serious than an adjustment to the (sometimes shriek-inducing, though totally normal!) changes in a postpartum body. Does she ruminate on other things? Is she isolating herself socially? Does she recognize that her focus on these supposed flaws is excessive? Try talking to her about what’s going on inside rather than outside: “It’s hard for me to listen to how unhappy you seem about your body. It’s like you can’t see what everybody else sees. Can we talk about what might be going on, and how to get you feeling better?” Send your questions for Baggage Check to Dr. Andrea Bonior at baggage@ wpost.com.

Greens and beans star in Aglaia Kremezi’s newest cookbook COOKING Maybe you’ve heard a certain myth: Greek cuisine is all gyros and meaty moussaka. Not true, says Greek cookbook author Aglaia Kremezi. “The country doesn’t lend itself to meat. It’s quite mountainous, and there’s no way to produce enough meat to feed everybody,” says Kremezi, who lives on the island of Kea. “People made do with whatever they could cultivate and forage.” A lot of that is quite tasty, as

Kremezi highlights in her new release, “Mediterranean Vegetarian Feasts” ($35, Stewart, Tabori & Chang). Not all of the recipes are low-calorie — note the copious amounts of olive oil used — but they’re proof that veggies, beans and spices are more versatile than many people realize. “This is the way I learned to cook from my mother and grandmother,” Kremezi says. Similar preparation techniques are common across the region, which is why she also sprinkles in dishes from Turkey, Lebanon and the Balkans. No matter what you’re cooking, what matters most is how you treat the ingredients. “Never

dump vegetables in the refrigerator and forget about them,” Kremezi says. “Have them ready to finish cooking however you like.”

She recommends giving greens attention ASAP: “I will blanch them, steam them, saute them.” They’ll keep that way for close to

a week, ready to be stirred into a soup or piled atop polenta (as in the photo with her recipe, below). As long as you’re thinking ahead, Kremezi also suggests soaking beans overnight, so they’re ready to be cooked the next day. Canned beans just don’t have the same flavor, she says. Flavor is paramount to Kremezi, which is why there’s no tofu in the book. As Kremezi says: “It looks like cheese, but when you bite into it, it’s tasteless.” Kremezi’s American cooking students associate vegetarian dishes with deprivation, so they’re in awe of basic, healthy staples, such as stuffed peppers and green beans with tomato sauce. “They think it’s the most delicious thing they’ve ever tasted, and it’s the simplest thing in the world,” she says. VICKY HALLETT (EXPRESS) Aglaia Kremezi will appear at 11 a.m. Sunday at the Dupont Circle Fresh Farm Market.

Don’t start with a sprint. “It doesn’t give you anywhere to go,” Siik says. Get your body warmed up, and then introduce intervals systematically.

Don’t forget to up your speed before an interval. Treadmills take time to get faster, Siik says. So you’re cheating yourself if you don’t press that arrow at least a few seconds before you’re ready to go all out.

TECHNIQUE Runners — a group of people accustomed to bloody nipples, blackened toenails and mid-route diarrhea — seem to become embarrassed by only one thing: treadmills. “They say, ‘I can’t get on one.’ There’s this shame,” says David Siik, creator of Equinox’s new Precision Running program (see page 23). He has plenty of reasons athletes should get over their hangup: Treadmills are gentler on the joints than unforgiving sidewalks, they allow groups of different abilities to run “together,” and they make it possible for a coach to monitor an athlete for every step of a run. His absolute favorite thing about treadmills? “You can calculate anything — it’s like running on a computer,” Siik says. But to get the most out of the info and experience, you have to use the technology correctly, he adds. Here’s his list of treadmill don’ts:

Virginia native Dave Grohl focused on D.C.’s niche music scenes for the city’s episode of “Sonic Highways.”

Dave Grohl follows his ‘Highways’ to D.C. TELEVISION Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl plays rock diplomat and rock star in “Sonic Highways,” an HBO rockumentary series that follows the band as it records a new album across America. “Sonic Highways’ ” second episode airs at 11 p.m. Friday, and it focuses on D.C.’s go-go and hardcore punk scenes. Grohl — who hails from Springfield, Va. — discussed the challenges of “Sonic Highways” and Foo Fighters going go-go. How did your D.C. visit stand out from the rest of the trip? One of the great things about the Washington, D.C., episode is putting the spotlight on go-go music

and Dischord Records. … But if you travel outside of the city, a lot of people don’t know what gogo music is. A lot of people don’t know Ian MacKaye or Dischord Records. Those are the greatest examples of what I’m trying to communicate with this series: the regional relevance of music. Did you learn anything while shooting the D.C. episode? One thing I learned was that the go-go pocket beat was something that Chuck Brown played between songs so the audience wouldn’t leave. He would play these top 40 songs, and in between those, he’d throw this pocket beat in there. And that became known as the go-go beat.

In the episode, you and Big Tony from go-go legends Trouble Funk talk about collaborating. Will your next album be go-go? Once our schedules line up and it comes together, I’m sure it would be the bomb. But we haven’t figured it out yet. Can D.C. officially claim you? I never tell anyone that I’m from anywhere. … But it’s a huge part of who I am and I wouldn’t be this person if it wasn’t for that place and those people. I’m proud to say that. I’m proud to be a musician from the Washington, D.C., area. Musically, it’s a lot richer and more vital than most people would ever expect. CHRIS RICHARDS (THE WASHINGTON POST)
