MWi^_d]jed President Obama moved Monday to complete an overhaul of his national security team, selecting Army Gen. Martin Dempsey as the next Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman amid a protracted battle in Afghanistan, U.S. involvement in the NATO-led effort against Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi and a winding down of the war in Iraq.

Obama announced a new lineup of his top military leadership group in the Rose Garden of the White House just before venturing across the Potomac to pay tribute to the nation’s war dead at Arlington National Cemetery. The Memorial Day announcements had been expected, although there was no immediate indication what the military leadership moves might imply for possible changes in military strategy.

Already, the president had turned, in late April, to CIA Director Leon Panetta to succeed Robert Gates as secretary of defense and chose to move Army Gen. David Petraeus from his command of the Afghanistan war effort to the United States to replace Panetta at the CIA. Marine Gen. James Cartwright had long been rumored to be Obama’s

Ckbb[d 9edÓ Z[dj _d IjhWj[]o Appearing in a nationally broadcast interview Monday morning, Adm. Mike Mullen was asked whether a change of guard for the Joint Chiefs of Staff meant a change of strategy in Afghanistan.

favorite, and the president singled him out for praise at the announcement.

But he turned instead to Dempsey, an accomplished veteran of the Iraq war, to succeed Adm. Mike Mullen as his top military adviser, calling Dempsey “one of our nation’s most respected and combat-tested generals.”

The president also announced he has chosen Navy Adm. James Winnefeld to succeed Cartwright as vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs and Army Gen. Ray Odierno as his candidate to replace Dempsey as Army chief of staff.

The nominees have to be approved by the Senate, and Obama voiced hope that could happen in a timely fashion. D A R L E N E S U P E R V I L L E A N D ROBERT BURNS (AP)

As Washington considers closing a profusion of tax breaks in its quest to reduce record budget deficits, a new study suggests that some targets might produce far less cash than is commonly thought.

Tax preferences for retirement plans, such as 401(k) accounts, rank among the biggest money losers for the federal government, with official projections showing a loss of about $600 billion to federal coffers over the next five years. But a study set for release this week suggests that the accounts would have to be closed entirely, or contributions sharply limited, to realize much in the way of budget savings — a move

Tadic: Bloc’s demand for capture of war crimes suspect met

8WYaijeho

8[b]hWZ[" I[hX_W Serbian President Boris Tadic said Monday it’s time the European Union did its part by boosting his nation’s efforts to join the bloc, arguing the arrest of war crimes suspect Ratko Mladic proves it is serious about rejoining the international fold.

Tadic also rejected speculation that authorities had known of Mladic’s hiding place but delayed his arrest to coincide with a visit

by EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton. The rumors have persisted because Mladic was found living not far from the capital, Belgrade, with relatives who share his last name.

“The truth is that we arrested Ratko Mladic the moment we discovered him,” Tadic said.

Europe’s most wanted war crimes fugitive, Mladic, was arrested Thursday after 16 years on the run. He is charged by a U.N. war crimes court for atrocities committed by his troops during Bosnia’s 1992-95 war.

tion it arrested the wartime Bosnian Serb commander. Some EU nations have already said Serbia needs to do more, including arresting its last fugitive, Goran Hadzic, who led Croatian Serb rebels during the 1991-95 war. Hadzic is accused of the murder of hundreds of Croat civilians and the deportation of 28,000 people.

Ratko Mladic, 69, was indicted on 15 counts of war crimes for atrocities committed during the Bosnian War of 1992-95. He is held responsible for ordering the Sarajevo Massacre, in which about 8,000 Bosnians were killed, and the 43-month siege of Sarajevo, in which 10,000 civilians perished. Mladic’s lawyer said Monday he has formally filed an appeal against the former general’s extradition — a move that will likely delay his handover for at least a day. (AP)

Serbia will “arrest Mr. Hadzic in the next few weeks, a month, the year ahead of us,” Tadic said.

Serbia, once considered a pariah nation because of its late president Slobodan Milosevic’s warmongering policies and for harboring war crimes suspects, now expects pre-candidacy status by the end of the year.

Tadic said that Serbia should be given the same path to membership accorded to another former Yugoslav republic, Croatia.

“There are no obstacles left,” he said. “Stopping Serbia would be purely political.” (AP)

8WYaijeho Yemen’s unrest has increased dramatically in the past week, as a U.S.-backed mediation effort for Saleh to leave power in exchange for immunity from prosecution failed.

Five days of battles in the capital, San‘a, between Saleh’s security forces and tribesmen left 124 people dead before the sides reached a tenuous cease-fire, and a group of nine high-level military leaders over the weekend urged all army units to help topple the president. (AP)

Yemeni forces opened fire on a protest camp and killed more than 20 demonstrators Monday in the southern city of Taiz while government warplanes launched airstrikes on another southern town seized by radical Islamists.

The new attempts to suppress the uprising against President Ali Abdullah Saleh with overwhelming force pointed to the leader’s increasingly tenuous grip on power.

More than three months of mass street protests have posed an unprecedented threat to Saleh’s 33-year rule, and the U.S. has moved away from its former ally despite fears that his fall could leave room in this rugged corner of the Arabian Peninsula for an active al-Qaeda franchise or other militant Islamist groups to take power.

Saleh has responded to protest-

ers who say they seek democratic reforms with a mix of promised concessions and bloody crackdowns.

The airstrikes were the government’s hardest hit yet against the Islamists since hundreds of them streamed in Friday, seizing banks and government buildings. Military units battled them overnight and into Monday.

The U.S. Embassy in San‘a condemned Monday’s attack as “unprovoked and unjustified.” (AP)

C[jhe >edehi IjWj_ed CWdW][h 27-year employee gets award for thwarting 2 suicide tries in system BWdZel[h" CZ$ It isn’t often that a Metro station manager stops a person from jumping in front of a train. For Timothy Lee, it’s happened twice in just more than a year, most recently in April, when he stopped a young woman who had been dangling her legs from the platform at Landover Station.

Last week, Metro’s top officials awarded the 27-year employee a plaque for his actions.

“What he did was heroic,” said Lynn Bowersox, Metro’s managing director of public relations. “He spotted her, understood her actions and had the instinct that she might be in harm’s way and stopped her.

It is absolutely extraordinary.”

Lee, 50, was in the station’s kiosk about to do a routine check along the platform. He looked at a security camera and noticed a young woman walking along the edge of the platform.

Lee, who has worked at Landover for three years, said he’d seen people do that before, so he wasn’t immediately alarmed and thought he’d simply ask her to step away from the edge.

HW_bYWhi 8bWc[Z Metro’s Breda 4000 Series of railcars is being blamed for delays in train service. At a board committee meeting last week, board member Tom Downs said the railcar series is hurting on-time performance and called for the agency to fix the railcars or get rid of them. The 4000 Series has Metro’s worst record for breakdowns that cause delays. (AP)

But when he got on the platform, she was dangling her legs over the track. Lee yelled for her to get up, but she got on all fours as if positioning herself to jump. Lee said he then gingerly

approached her.

“I knew once I hollered towards her to get up and she totally ignored me that I had a problem,” he said.

Lee said he grabbed her arm and pulled her back just as a train pulled into the station.

“When I grabbed her, she was lifeless,” Lee said. “She had no emotion.”

Lee called Metro’s operations center and Metro Transit Police.

Police arrived quickly and took the woman to an area hospital.

BeYWb D.C. juveniles target smartphones, are less likely to steal vehicles MWi^_d]jed For teenagers who commit crimes in the District, stealing cars is out.

Snatching smartphones directly from victimsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hands or breaking into their homes is in.

On average, juveniles were arrested for violent robberies or carjackings at least once a day last year, an almost 50 percent increase from 2007. During the same time, juvenile arrests for riding in stolen cars, a nonviolent crime, dropped

by more than 60 percent.

The shift is a troubling indicator that the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youngest offenders are growing more aggressive and confrontational: Last year, teens made up 23 percent of all violent crime arrests, more than double the percentage in 2003. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A number of years ago, car theft was off the scale. It was cool to get a car and joyride,â&#x20AC;? said Daniel Okonkwo, executive director of

DC Lawyers for Youth. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an iPhone 4, an iPod. Things you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t afford when you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have money.â&#x20AC;?

This year, juveniles account for 7 percent of overall arrests in the city â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but about 45 percent of all arrests for robbery and carjacking, and 35 percent of burglary arrests, said D.C. Police Chief Cathy L. Lanier.

Teens have represented 6 percent to 8 percent of total arrests in the District for the past five years.

Teens are breaking into houses more than ever, according to police, contributing to a 14 percent jump in home break-ins across the city.

BeYWb Washing of the Dead At the Vietnam Wall MWi^_d]jed In the early morning, just as the sun breaks over the Capitol dome, a small group of volunteers gathers at the black granite Vietnam Veterans Memorial, that heart-breaking slash in the earth by the Lincoln Memorial on the Mall.

They quietly hook up hoses, attach nozzles and spray down the wall, removing a week’s worth of dust, dirt and debris. Then they fill up buckets with a mild detergent, switch to soft brushes and, starting on either end of the wall, begin to scrub. Countless fingerprints, smears and tears have accumulated since the last wash, a week ago.

“I have 11 buddies on that wall, including my best friend from high school,” said Steve Nelson, of District Heights, who served in the Army in Vietnam. He was turning on the water this month after the hoses were unkinked and extended.

Each year after the cherry blossoms are past, until the first snowfall, the volunteers turn up on Saturdays and Sundays at 6:30 a.m., long before tourists arrive. The work takes less than an hour. Many military veterans are among the regular volunteers, but there are also church groups, Boy Scouts, college sorority sisters and union members.

“You’re one of the few people in the park early in the morning,” said New Thanyachareon, the Park Service ranger who is the volunteer coordinator. “It’s not intense, not hard. There’s a lot of camaraderie.” (THE WASHINGTON POST )

9el[h Ijeho disaster made her rethink the technologyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s risks.

Last fall, Merkel had called for Germany to get 80 percent of its electricity from renewable sources by 2050. Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s announcement increases the pressure to make that happen faster. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also want to reduce our CO2 emissions by 40 percent and double our share of renewable energies, from about 17 percent today to then 35 percent,â&#x20AC;? the chancellor said.

Though environmental groups welcomed Germanyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan, it received a skeptical reception abroad.

French Prime Minister Francois Fillon â&#x20AC;&#x201D; whose country relies on nuclear power to produce 80 percent of its electricity supply â&#x20AC;&#x201D; insisted â&#x20AC;&#x153;thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no wayâ&#x20AC;? for the European Union to meet its emission-cutting targets without at

Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic powerhouse, Germany, is to abandon nuclear energy over the next 11 years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; drawing up an ambitious plan in the wake of Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fukushima disaster to replace atomic power with renewable energy sources.

Chancellor Angela Merkel said Monday she hopes the transformation to more solar, wind and hydroelectric power becomes a test case for other countries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We believe that we can show those countries who decide to abandon nuclear power â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or not to start using it â&#x20AC;&#x201D; how it is possible to achieve growth, creating jobs and economic prosperity while shifting the energy supply toward renewable energies,â&#x20AC;? Merkel said.

Merkelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s government announced Monday that it will shut down all of the 17 nuclear power plants in Germany â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fourth-largest economy and Europeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s biggest â&#x20AC;&#x201D; by 2022.

The countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seven oldest reactors, already taken off the grid pending safety inspections after the March catastrophe at Japanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant, will remain offline permanently, Merkel said.

The decision completed a remarkable about-face for Merkelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s center-right government, which only late last year pushed through a plan to extend the life span of the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 17 reactors by an average of 12 years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with the last scheduled to go offline around 2036.

Nuclear is unsafe: Accidents are hard to predict and have far-reaching consequences, compounded by the fact that most reactors are near major population centers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Moscow, Chicago, Los Angeles, Kiev â&#x20AC;&#x201D; making it nearly impossible to evacuate people in a timely fashion.

Nuclear is safe: Commercial nuclear power plants in the United States have produced electricity for more than half a century, and there have been no radiation-related deaths linked to their operation.

It canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be disposed of safely: Operators still store spent fuel and other nuclear waste in and around reactors, since no secure permanent repository has been built. In the U.S., 70,000 tons of spent fuel sits at 103 reactors across the country.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expensive: A typical reactor, based on the French industry, costs a minimum of $6 billion. That doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t include waste disposal, fuel costs or the costs of remediating such accidents as Chernobyl.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reliable: On average, 104 nuclear power plants in the U.S. operate more than 90 percent of the time. In comparison, hydro, wind and solar power have average capacity factors in the range of 24 to 30 percent.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efficient: A 1,000-megawatt nuclear power plant operating 90 percent of the time generates enough electricity to power 740,000 homes.

It would take 13.7 million barrels of oil, 3.4 million short tons of coal or 65.8 billion cubic feet of natural gas to achieve the same result, according to government data. (CSM)

least some use of nuclear power. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We respect this decision, but it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cause us to change our policy,â&#x20AC;? Fillon said. France operates more than one-third of the nuclear reactors in the EU. Swedish Environment Minister Andreas Carlgren also criticized the decision, saying that the focus on an end date was unfortunate and could increase electricity prices across Europe.

Hans-Peter Keitel, the president of the Federation of German Industries, urged Germany not to set the exit date of 2022 in stone.

Germanyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decision came after a 17-member nuclear ethics panel, which included a Roman Catholic bishop and industrial and scientific leaders, recommended a â&#x20AC;&#x153;10-year exit corridorâ&#x20AC;? to go nuclear-free. But the report, released Monday, said weaning Germany off nuclear power wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be successful â&#x20AC;&#x153;without efforts of all segments of the political, business and societal world.â&#x20AC;?

Ifehji THE NBA FINALS

:[Y_i_edi" :[Y_i_edi LeBron James chose to sign with the Miami Heat to be in this position: playing for his first NBA championship LeBron James walked through the tunnel leading from the Miami Heat locker room Monday, stepped onto the court and gave a yell.

He looked down at the NBA Finals logo newly affixed on the floor, smiled and nodded.

With that, it became real. His championship chance — the biggest reason he came to Miami — has finally arrived.

Swept out of his only other finals appearance four years ago, James will get his long-awaited second opportunity starting Tuesday night, when the Heat hosts the Dallas Mavericks in 9 P.M. | ABC Tuesday Game 1 of the NBA’s title series.

After a year like no other in his life, starting with the muchcriticized “Decision,” his jerseys’ being torched in Cleveland and the intense scrutiny of his every move, the last challenge will likely prove to be the toughest of them all.

“I’m honored to be here once again,” said James, who led the Cavaliers to the 2007 finals.

“Now with this franchise, it’s an honor. As players, we worked hard. I worked hard individually to get to this point. And I had a lot of visions of being in this moment, and now it’s hit me. ... I’m very excited.”

CWjY^kfi POWER FORWARD: Chris Bosh vs. Dirk Nowitzki. Nowitzki is having as good a postseason as anyone, scoring 28.4 points per game and shooting nearly 52 percent from the field. Bosh occasionally found it tough understanding his role as the No. 3 behind LeBron James and Dwyane Wade but has it figured out now. ;:=;0 Mavericks.

SMALL FORWARD:

LeBron James vs. Shawn Marion. Quickly swept aside in his lone finals appearance, James has done everything it takes to give himself another shot, from clutch 3-pointers to timely defensive stops against the opponents' top offensive player.

The versatile Marion's insertion into the starting lineup allowed the Mavericks to overcome the season-ending loss of Caron Butler in January. ;:=;0 Heat.

It showed Monday. He chatted with teammates, taking part in a long shooting contest with Dwyane Wade, Eddie House and others, looking perfectly comfortable as dozens of photographers clicked away for 30-straight minutes. By now, being in the microscope is an accepted part of the deal for James, who has been dealing with this since his high school days.

Away from the court, though, his focus is even sharper than usual, according to those who are around the two-time NBA MVP. Winning a title likely won’t change perceptions about James. His fans will surely remain fans and his critics will surely remain critics, no matter what happens. But to him, a championship would mean everything that took place since 9:27 p.m. on July 8, 2010 — the moment he publicly said he would join the Heat — was all worthwhile.

“He’s focused,” Wade said. “Obviously, we all want it. But in a different sense, he wants this; he wants to seize this moment.”

He’s been that way since July.

When the Heat threw that muchmaligned signing party for Wade, James and Chris Bosh — an idea that was born from the team hoping to simply welcome Wade back to Miami, those organizing the event never knowing it would be James and Bosh sharing the stage with him until less than 24 hours before the bash began — James talked about winning title after title after title.

With that, the bar was set.

“He’s been zoned in, and he has that killer instinct that is warranted for the playoffs,” Heat center Jamaal Magloire said. “You can see that he’s willing to do whatever it takes to win.” TIM REYNOLDS (AP)

SHOOTING GUARD: Dwyane Wade vs. DeShawn Stevenson. Wade wrecked Dallas' first finals appearance, averaging 34.7 points and winning MVP honors. Stevenson is a good defender and will hit an occasional 3-pointer. ;:=;0 Heat.

CENTER: Joel Anthony vs.

Tyson Chandler.

Chandler gives the Mavs an interior defensive presence they long lacked, and he can score some. Anthony can give the Heat a timely rebound or blocked shot, but he provides little offensively. ;:=;0 Mavericks.

DWc[ J^Wj 7h[dW If you’re an NBA fan, you’ll hear the name American Airlines a lot over the next few weeks. American slapped its name on the arenas of both teams playing in the NBA finals back when stadium naming rights were a hot commodity — the American Airlines Arena in Miami and the American Airlines Center in Dallas.

So whether the Miami Heat or the Dallas Mavericks win the title, American figures to get a lot of TV time. The same thing happened in 2006, when the Heat defeated the Mavericks in six games. American bought the naming rights to those arenas a decade ago.

According to reports, American agreed to pay $195 million over 30 years for the Dallas rights and $42 million over 20 years in Miami. (AP)

POINT GUARD: Mike Bibby vs. Jason Kidd. Bibby rarely has been a factor since joining the Heat and lacks the speed to take advantage of the 38-year-old Kidd, who has played terrific defense to give himself a third try at a ring. ;:=;0 Mavericks. (AP)

Nationals Find a Different Way to Lose J^[ DWj_edWbi Untouchable here, unparalleled everywhere else, Roy Halladay stood on the Nationals Park mound Monday afternoon and struck an unfamiliar pose.

He was looking up and over his shoulder, watching the f light of another one of his pitches scorched toward the seats. Since he joined the Philadelphia Phillies, Halladay had owned the Nationals. Now, as Laynce Nix’s home run stole the

lead, they were playing home run derby against him.

The stunning development, by the end of their 5-4 loss in front of 34,789, yielded to a infuriating question: What must the Nationals do to beat the Phillies? They had smoked three home runs and smacked 10 hits off the best pitcher on the planet. Livan Hernandez had allowed three runs in 6 1/3 innings when he exited. They did not make an error. And still, the Nationals lost to the Phillies for the sixth-straight time, their 33rd defeat against Philadelphia in the past 43 meetings.

The Nationals, after Michael Morse, Danny Espinosa and Nix drilled solo homers off Halladay, lost the game with their bullpen and on the basepaths.

Like the rest of the fam, the new formulas are non-sticky, non-melty and tasty.

9^eei[ Wd 7Zl[djkh[ The key to enjoying summer in the city?

Getting out of town. Here are four ideas for active adventures within driving distance.

Idem :Wo “In the summer, people don’t think, ‘Let’s go skiing,’” says Drew Sherwood, general manager of Liberty Mountain Snowflex Centre. But that’s exactly what the slopes covered with synthetic snow substitute are meant for in Lynchburg, Va., a 3∏-hour drive from the District.

The newest innovation is a lift and slope for tubing enthusiasts.

One bummer: You have to wear long sleeves and pants, because the surface has the texture of a doormat and can leave marks like rug burns on exposed skin.

Although it’s run by Liberty University, which boasts the slogan “40 years of training champions for Christ,” Sherwood promises the only lessons at the center are in skiing and snowboarding.

“This is a vacation place,” he says.

P_f ?j

Get ready to go the extra mile. That’s how long you’re in the air when you do the new canopy tour, above, at Nelson Rocks Outdoor Center in Circleville, W.Va., about a 3½-hour drive away.

The four-hour experience includes 12 zip lines, three sky bridges and a hike, all designed to provide a glorious glimpse of 400 million years of geology. Guides are there for safety and for education about the flora and fauna.

Or head just one hour away to Harpers Ferry, W.Va., where River Riders, a rafting and tubing company, launched another canopy tour. It’s a shorter course with eight zip lines that participants can finish in about two hours. But it should still satisfy your adrenaline cravings.

JWa[ 7 IjWdZ What’s going to be hot this summer, other than the weather? Stand-up paddleboarding (or SUP, for short).

Several local outfitters have added the long, floaty boards to their fleets of watercraft. That includes Baltimore’s Ultimate Watersports, above, which is pushing the Polynesianinspired activity that looks a bit like surfing but doesn’t require a single wave. In fact, when you’re starting out, you’ll probably prefer calm water. Once you’ve figured out how to balance, you can row yourself around with a motion that’s great for strengthening your core and shoulders.

Take lessons, go on ecotours or attend SUP yoga.

Ekj ed W B_cX

Branch out by taking tree-climbing lessons. That’s what Riverside Outfitters in Richmond, Va., about two hours from the District, offers, using safety techniques borrowed from professional arborists.

Staff members will happily show you the nitty-gritty of how they set up the safety system (which resembles rock-climbing gear) designed to keep you from tumbling to the ground. But if you’re just into scrambling up toward the sky, don’t worry about it. Simply enjoy the climb to the tops of red oaks, pretend you’re Tarzan, and walk out on the limbs.

M^[d 8hej^[h ?i W 8ej^[h I’m pregnant and don’t want my brother in my baby’s life. He was abusive to me when we were growing up. Now, he’s 26 and lives with my parents, who financially support him. I know it’s assumed that when I have this baby, he will see it when they do, at least when we visit them. My husband says we should try to maintain peace, but I don’t even need my baby to know he exists. OLDER SIS, VA It’s your child, and you and your husband have the right — and responsibility — to keep him or her safe.

Certainly, this is not auspicious.

And I simply don’t agree with the cynical and helpless mind-set that this is just what happens in longterm relationships. Fighting about stuff like whether mustard should be refrigerated, when it’s this constant, is just as significant as bigger conflicts.

The real question here isn’t whether this is unsatisfactory (it is), but whether it can be temporary.

Might he be depressed? (Irritability and pessimism are classic signs.)

Is he willing to search for new coping strategies and stress reduction techniques, if not talk to somebody?

Might you both identify your triggers and work together to disengage from a conflict to cool down before it escalates? There are ways of working through this with motivation, patience and respect.

ing allow the problem to continue.

When someone uses a gay slur in a locker room and the other players remain silent, they’re bullying, too, Cohen says: “They’re as good as taking part.”

His D.C. events included a fundraiser at Town, with proceeds going to the Human Rights Campaign,

C7=?9 DKC8;H0 “I used to work out with a Navy SEAL who said never to let your workout routine become just that,” says Ross Yerger, a rugby fan who won the exercise session with Cohen. So the athlete introduced him to a new program: six sixes.

It’s six exercises (bench presses, cleans, squats, squat jumps, overhead presses, curls), six reps, six times. “I didn’t vomit,” Yerger boasts. And he got to take home the sweaty shirt off Cohen’s back.

Rugby’s Ben Cohen will combat bullying behavior with his new StandUp Foundation You don’t need to know a thing about rugby to be a fan of Ben Cohen. The 32-year-old English athlete, who retired from the sport this month, isn’t just a World Cupwinning player — he’s also a champion of gay rights.

It’s an unusual position in the world of professional sports, and it’s even more remarkable given that Cohen is a straight, married guy with two daughters. But when he discovered he’d developed a sizable following in the gay community, he embraced his fan base.

“It was flattering people found me attractive,” says Cohen, who quickly learned that many of his devotees had dealt with years of

bullying, which led to depression and worse for them.

“There are everlasting scars.

For the rest of their lives, they can remember the smell of the room, the bully’s name,” he says.

He’s decided to do something about it, launching the StandUp

Foundation to fight homophobic behavior.

Last week, he swung through Washington during his Acceptance Tour across the U.S. to start raising money and awareness about the issue. The message, he explains, is that people who tolerate bully-

and a talk with the gay-straight alliance at Richard Montgomery High School in Rockville. He also managed to make one fan’s day by auctioning off a one-on-one workout at Vida Fitness: Ross Yerger, a 39-year-old Secret Service agent, bid $600 for the opportunity. (See

But everybody will have a chance to participate.

That’s because at 11:15 a.m. — right after the opening ceremonies — local certified American Coun-

cil on Exercise (ACE) trainer Jonathan Ross will teach the Moderation Nation Batuka Dance, designed to get the whole crowd up on their feet and shaking it.

“There are a lot of people who don’t like structured exercise and just want to move. With this, in four to five minutes, you get up, get moving and get a sweat going,” Ross says.

The Latin-influenced steps will be familiar to anyone who’s ever attended a Zumba class. They’re a taste of the Batuka fitness program, a similar format designed to bring a party atmosphere to exercise. (It was just introduced to the U.S. ear-

Offering inclusive options is the purpose of Moderation Nation

(Themoderationnation.com), a collaboration between the Hershey Center for Health and Nutrition, ACE and the American Dietetic

box for details.)

Exercise isn’t the highest priority for Cohen these days, particularly because he’s still nursing an injury from his final rugby match in April. (“I snapped my adductor off my groin. It felt like getting kicked in the nuts, and it bled everywhere,” he says.)

But he’s certain to keep running around the hills near his farm in the English countryside and to pursue physical interests he’s put off. “I want to do marathons and other things I could never do as a rugby player,” he says.

Before, he was training to score points. Now, he has a different goal: “I’ve got to keep fit to look halfway decent and not get too fat.” Cohen knows his fans are counting on him. VICK Y HALLET T (E XPRESS)

Association. “We’re presenting the idea that activity is part of life and that there are so many ways to be active,” says Ross, who worries that kids who aren’t naturally athletic believe that exercise isn’t for them.

“We get kids into sports or nothing.

We need something else. Anyone can dance or play silly games and have a great experience.”

Ross hopes that by attending the games with their children, adults will be reminded that exercise can actually be fun — and can be something they can do together. Moderation Nation’s website features “activity snack” ideas, including a relay race to weed the garden.

“You can’t go wrong putting smiles on people’s faces,” Ross says.

Especially when you’re raising their heart rates at the same time. V.H.

although, eventually, the smell sticks.

The Rapture has been postponed until fall. But here in D.C., it’s already nearly as hot as hell. Two new T-shirts promise relief for outdoor exercisers. We tested the garments in 80-degree heat with 80 percent humidity.

ICEFIL

(New Balance, $38 short sleeve, $36 sleeveless)

CHARGED COTTON T (Under Armour, $25) Technology: Cotton is a strong natural fiber, but no one’s ever turned it into a performance fabric, says Under Armour. Half the shirt’s fibers are “charged” to repel water. Five percent lycra adds stretch and bounce.

There’s built-in UPF, too.

Test result: Sweat appears in stippled patterns at first, delaying the onset of total saturation. Dry-out is faster than

with regular cotton. The wonderfully soft texture (a result of a high-caliber cotton) is not compromised. Plus: No odor retention after several tests —

Technology: “Larger dimension yarns” soak up body heat. In addition, the recycled polyester fibers are treated with Nano Aqua Chem to block sun rays and with xylitol to create a chemical reaction with moisture that cools the body.

Test result: After 20 minutes, the shirt felt warm to the touch, so maybe it was soaking up the heat we exuded. Meanwhile, we felt kind of cool. Was it the Icefil or the power of suggestion? Either way, a good deal! Minimal BO due to antimicrobial properties. MARC SILVER

val isn’t huge, but some of the names — the Strokes and Queens of the Stone Age — are. And the opening slots give a boost to unknowns (the Young Evils, thenewno2).

That fan-centric approach seems like a smart move in a challenging summer touring market. According to Pollstar, a trade publication that tracks the health of the concert industry, the top 50 tours in North America grossed 15 percent less in 2010 than in 2009. Meanwhile, the total number of concerts dropped about 3 percent.

Glenn Peoples, senior editorial analyst at Billboard magazine, thinks this might be part of the reason we’re seeing a bump in artist-curated festivals: “Sometimes, just going out on tour isn’t enough.” CHRIS RICHARDS

A Bonney Lad It’s probably safe to call Tabi Bonney the first rapper in the history of hip-hop to use the word “crochet” in a song. “My plans got crocheted,” the D.C.-based Bonney spits on “Sunlight,” the first single off “The Summer Years,” due out in August.

The song’s hook is a twist on 19thcentury Norwegian composer Edvard Grieg’s “Morning Mood,” from the Henrik Ibsen play “Peer Gynt”; the song is meant to evoke a sunrise. For Bon8o 9^h_ijef^[h ney, “living life like Fehj[h we in the sunlight” is a metaphor for the grind he’s on to make it as an artist. But the Langdon Park resident is three albums and two mixtapes into a career, and yet still something of a cult act — in part because he simply doesn’t chase hits.

Bonney’s flow is spiked with D.C. slang — “’bammas,” “cised” — and his videos are steeped in imagery from the District, and from Togo, the West African country where he was born.

This regional focus might put a crochet on Bonney’s world-domination plans, but Washington will be forever cised for his talent.

The Meaning Of Love

Ballet, the Cuban Way

The artworks of Hadieh Shafie, which are on display in the exhibit “The Sweet Turning of the Page,” have to be seen in person to be appreciated. What look like colorful circles — arresting, but hardly revelatory — in photographs of her art are actually thousands of rolledup scrolls, each imprinted with “eshghe,” which is Farsi for “love.”

Morton Fine Art, 1781 Florida Ave. NW; through Fri., free; 202628-2787, Mortonfineart.com.

(U St.-Cardozo)

It seems to be buying into a Latin American stereotype that every description of the Ballet Nacional de Cuba includes the words “fiery” or “passionate,” but we can’t exactly argue with it. The company will be at the Kennedy Center this week with two programs: a production of “Don Quixote” and a collection of famous dances from “Giselle,” “Swan Lake” and other ballets. Kennedy Center, 2700 F St. NW; through Sun., $25$99; 202-467-4600, Kennedycenter.org. (Foggy Bottom)

For Better or for Worse Filmmaker Eric Rohmer, who died last year, specialized in movies about the small problems of average people. For example, Sabine, heroine of “A Good Marriage” (screening today), decides to give up her life of married lovers and find herself a husband. Fate, shockingly, does not intervene, because this is not a Kate Hudson movie.

Thank goodness. AFI Silver, 8633 Colesville Road, Silver Spring; Tue., 7 p.m.; 301-4956720, Afi.com/silver.

:Wd 7bf[h" 7cWdZW H[]d[h Dan, 30, is a docketing coordinator at a law firm. Amanda, 28, is a bookstore manager. They live in Crystal City.

THE MAIN EVENT: June 12 in Springfield, Va. They’ll sign the ketubah, the Jewish marriage contract, and break a glass.

HOW THEY MET: On Craigslist. “Amanda posted an ad asking if anyone was bored at work. I was, so I responded. We may be the only people to have achieved a sane relationship out of the Craigslist personals.”

FIRST DATE: After 40 emails, they got dinner at Austin Grill in Alexandria.

HOW HE PROPOSED: At home. Amanda, distracted by her iPhone, didn’t look up when Dan said, “You know I love you.” Then he said, “I talked to your mom.” “Then he had my full attention,” Amanda says. Her first response: “Are you serious?”

MOST-HATED CLOTHING ITEM: His Slayer T-shirt with “monster heads on it and holes in it.”

PET NAMES: “Muffin,” short for “Love Muffin.” “One night I told her I was going to start writing songs, and my surefire hit was going to be called “(You’re the Butter on My) Love Muffin.”

I[j^ HejhWc[b" AWj_[ OW[][h Seth, 37, is a lecturer at Georgetown. Katie, 31, is an international development specialist at a nonprofit. They live in D.C. THE MAIN EVENT: June 18 at a nature conservancy in Woodstock, Md. They’re striking a balance between “chilled out” and traditional, with no assigned seating and no matching dresses for bridesmaids; a friend with a guitar will provide their ceremony music.

HOW THEY MET: A friend connected them over email. The first time they met in person was at the Black Cat for a “Prince vs. Madonna” dance party. Seth dressed for the occasion.

;Z HeX[hji" Ah_ij[d IY^_Wled[ Ed, 26, is a health services administration grad student.

Kristen, 26, is a special-ed teacher. They live in Silver Spring.

FIRST DATE: Katie returned from a work trip to find Seth had borrowed a friend’s car to pick her up from Dulles.

FIRST KISS: At the airport. “The trip was worth it,” Seth says.

HOW HE PROPOSED: She’d seen the ring box, but he still wanted to surprise her. He popped the question at Hains Point, during a quick break on a workday. Katie returned to her office after, but “concentration was lost.”

WHEN SHE KNEW: “When we got our cat Biddy together,” Katie says. “I could tell by how he treated our cat so lovingly that he was going to be a great partner.”

MMM, CAKE: The “baking bridesmaids” (five of them) are making one cake each.

THE MAIN EVENT: June 18 in Rockville. They’re writing their own vows, Kristen says, “with tons of help from friends and Google.”

HOW THEY MET: At a friend’s birthday party. Ed saw Kristen sitting by herself and sat down. “She proceeded to grill me about everything from family to politics to religion.”

FIRST IMPRESSIONS: “I thought he was cute and funny.” “She was intense. That has not really changed.”

FIRST DATE: In Baltimore, where he lived at the time, starting with happy hour in Fells Point, then dinner in Canton.

HOW HE PROPOSED: At the National Christmas Tree on Christmas Eve 2009. He arranged it so their friends were waiting with a bottle of champagne after she said yes.

MOST-HATED CLOTHING ITEM: Her beach hats “that can block out the sun for her and a crowd of 10.”

WEDDING JITTERS: “I’m afraid Kristen will come to her senses and say, ‘No, I’m not marrying this fool.’”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) You must keep your wits about you or you are likely to be fooled by something that is not genuine, and pass on that which is.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) Your take on a certain recent development may surprise the experts, but you have a knack for seeing things the way they are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) What you do is likely to have far-reaching consequences, but this is nothing to fear. Indeed, the good can surely last a long time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) You may feel as though you have nothing original to offer, but you may stumble across an opportunity that allows your creativity to soar.

Fridayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Solution

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have a little more time to think things over than usual, and you can use that time very much to your advantage. Plans can be made.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) Now is the time for you to make a stand â&#x20AC;&#x201D; for or against is not the point, but rather the mere fact that you are willing to be counted.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to hear some rumors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; about you and another â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that are wholly untrue. You will have to deal with them, nonetheless.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) You may be called upon to share your opinions in a much more public forum than you are accustomed to, but you have what it takes.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) You are more interested in the meaning of anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s behavior rather than in the behavior itself or its causes. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have to dig deep.
