MORE INJUSTICE I read with great interest your recent article “Justice for All?” [Jan. 8]. It was good to see a major Vermont newspaper finally cover ing the lack of proper representa tion for poor people in Vermont’s courts. However, it failed to bring up one of the worst violations of the Constitution — those who are being charged with a crime that does not involve “time” (jail, pro bation, work crew, etc.), and are not given a public defender if they are unable to afford their own.. Defendants are usually not made aware of this fact until their court date, and so they often take a plea bargain in the spur of the moment just to get it over with, and to avoid having the penalties increase. Serious crimes such as firstoffense DWI and first-offense domestic assault do not require the convicted person to “do any time,” but have very serious further conse quences. The DWI can result in many thousands of dollars in expenses, lost wages, and being barred from Canada for five years. The domestic assault charge results in losing the right to own a firearm for the rest of one’s life, as well as expensive counseling. All without ever having any legal representation. Many people are not aware of this travesty, since as your article states “...generations of Americans

have learned from TV police dra mas, ‘If you cannot afford an attor ney, one will be appointed to you.’” Unfortunately, real life is not like TV, and there is no longer any justice for the poor, especially for young males. Yes, most people who are brought to court are guilty, but most is not all.

Eli Madden MIDDLEBURY

HISTORY LESSONS Peter Freyne’s description of Father Coughlin in his interview with Howard Dean [“Inside Track,” Jan. 8] is way too brief. Coughlin’s weekly radio broadcasts were more than criticisms of FDR and the New Deal; Coughlin was also a virulent anti-Semite whose rhetoric echoed Hitler’s here at home. Coughlin was fond of shouting that the Depression had been actually caused by Jews, as a strategy devised by what he (and others) saw as an international Jewish banking conspiracy “to hold the peoples of the world ransom.” Coughlin’s views are frightening in retrospect (as they were to many Jews and others at the time) and especially now, today, when we once more hear the same preju dices and lies being intoned by various others on the right, at home and abroad. If Howard Dean did indeed

label Rush Limbaugh as “a mor < sophisticated Father Coughlin,” eincc Dean needs a history lesson. Limbaugh is no liberal, and I not defending him (far from it) it but he and Coughlin just aren’t the same league as demagogues. Coughlin is still a lot scarier. I also want to note that Susarbfy s Green’s column “Flick Chick” omitted a crucial detail: The mi cal Cabaret, though indeed based on Kander and Ebb’s play, owes i origins to Kander and Ebb’s insp; ration, Christopher Isherwood’s autobiographical stories about prl war Berlin that were published in 1939 as Goodbye to Berlin. Kandej and Ebb’s 1951 stage play was titled I Am a Camera, as was the nonmusical 1955 film based on play, a film from which Cabaret was somewhat loosely derived. A good issue, but I look for more than just “good” from you ■ guys. Thanks for putting out the 1 one paper I really look forward tcj each week.

For examis means that women are take charge of their sex lives y see fit and that gay men k open about being attracted mu! her men. Your answer ran base$ concepts together and wes

implied that somehow these notions are about forcing hetero sexuals to have sex with members of the same sex against their will. It doesn’t seem to me that Bi-witched is being coerced to do anything he doesn’t want to do. In fact, he is taking advantage of queer empowerment to explore his own sexual liberation. The beauty of this is that, in the end, his decisions about his own sexual

ity will be his to make and not the outside world’s. I think Bi-witched was asking for permission to continue explor ing his homo side after two unsat isfactory attempts. Your answer was that he should stop now and not go any further. O n the contrary, twice is probably not enough. Here are some things that I would suggest: Try with a different man or men.

experiences aren’t always the most pleasurable (fear, stress, unrealistic expectations), but experience can bolster confidence. If his partner(s) know(s) he is exploring, that might reduce the stress and make for a better experience all around. Or, maybe Bi-witched is truly bisexual. In that case, maybe a threesome with another man and a woman would help. In the issue of Seven Days where Bi-witched’s letter appeared, there were three ads from married couples looking for single men to play with. Enjoy! (That’s really what sexual liberation is about!)

TALKING POINT W ith great amusement I have followed The Saga of The Point. It speaks well that so many people care about this station. May I, an outsider who visits often, offer a few observations? It struck me as pretty flattering for The Point to engender so much flap over changes. Clearly this sta tion is held in high regard. W ith the re-printing of the Seven Days article [Dec. 11] in the Times Argus with a little more vitriol from the disgruntled included, there seems to be more than a hint of nastiness and a possible hidden agenda.

In a perfect world radio would survive on good will and artistry, money would roll in from benefac tors to pay DJs, real estate, licens es, broadcasting capabilities, insur ance, et cetera; commercials would be totally entertaining and have been given a month to develop as with commercial production hous es. From the stations I have lis tened to here, The Point is one of the best, even with what the bellyachers seem to feel they have lost. They even seem to be getting a lit tle mellower in their between-thesongs recorded lines, and I don’t hear their IDs as much. Thank you. Their line up is wide-ranging — Blind Boys of Alabama, Angelique Kidjo, Susan Tedeschi, Clapton and other classics, local artists and brand new start-ups. That is impressive. No hip-hop, Brittany or Celine, but I can do without them just fine. I like The Point — not every thing on it, but then, I don’t like everything on the menu at my favorite restaurants, yet I still go to them. So I guess I am just one of those dumbed-down, attentionspan-of-a-gnat listeners who was fortunate to get a Ph.D. before they knew how stupid I must be.

e’re giving Diamond Jim Douglas and the Montpeculiar stars a breather this week. There’s a bigger picture that simply cannot be ignored. President and Chief Gunslinger George W. Bush’s heroic poll numbers are finally sliding. Last Saturday, hundreds of thousands of ordinary citizens took to the streets in Vermont, around the nation and around the world to oppose the impending inva sion of Iraq. And on Monday, America’s first and oldest ally declared that it stands firmly against Dubya’s mad death march. France’s foreign minister, Dominique de Villepin, accused Washington of “impatience” in the confrontation with Baghdad over illegal weapons and added, “We believe that nothing today justifies envisaging military action.” France, lest we forget, stood bravely by us in our hour of greatest need — our birth. W ithout France, we’d be watching cricket matches at Fenway Park and courtseying to the Queen o f England. Instead, we became the land where free dom rings. And 100 years after our success ful overthrow of the English crown, dear France sent along a big statue of Lady Liberty as a reminder. Vive la France! The foreign minister warned of a French veto in the United Nations Security Council when Dubya seeks its blessing to launch his own weapons of mass destruc tion. A veto would deny our macho presi dent any semblance o f international sup port for his reckless scheme to avenge his daddy’s shortcomings in Desert Storm and assure every gas-guzzling SUV owner in America that they will never see a line at the fuel pump. We may well look back on last week end’s antiwar marches as the moment the tide turned. The moment hundreds of thousands o f Americans put down their TV remotes and exercised their conditional rights to take to the streets in protest. Britain’s Guardian newspaper reported 22 “coaches” from little Vermont made the trip to Washington, D.C., on Saturday. According to Don Gray o f Central Vermont Peace, five buses made the overnight trip from Rutland. They arrived in D.C. at 7:30 Saturday morning. “It was really beautifiil,” said Gray, “all frosty and all.” Don Gray, a 53-year-old veteran o f the anti-Vietnam War marches o f many years ago, told Seven Days he never before experi enced “a more positive group united behind one central issue.” Gray reported that the Washington protest comprised Americans from all walks o f life, races and religions, as well as all age groups, including plenty of silverhaired, card-carrying members o f AARP. “It was very nonviolent and peaceful,” he said. University o f Vermont English professor Nancy Welch was on one of the four buses that departed from Burlington. “If we had advertised earlier,” she told Seven Days, “there would have been more.”

Welch, a proud member of the faculty union, said she marched in a large “U.S. Labor Against War” contingent that included school teachers from Wisconsin and health-care workers from the Big Apple. It was not Ms. Welch’s first overnight bus trip to protest in Foggy Bottom. “I knew to bring a thermos of coffee and pack lots of water and food.” But for many in the Burlap delegation, she said, it was a first. The group included teachers and students and graphic designers as well as “people doing yoga and stretch ing exercises.” The next big antiwar rally is scheduled for February 15 in New York City. It’s a much shorter trip than the one to D.C. Don’t forget your thermos.

Media Bias??? — You’d better believe it. C-SPAN covered Saturday’s Washington, D.C., protest live. God bless C-SPAN! After all, it was the largest antiwar march in 30 years! But tuning into “The NBC Nightly News” Saturday reminded us of the media bias against the antiwar move ment during the 1960s and 1970s. Back then, the “enemy” of peace was called the “military-industrial complex” — a name coined by President Dwight Eisenhower, a Republican and former Army general. It was composed of the Pentagon and the defense contractors. Ike warned America that the M IC ’s thirst for profit would lead America into senseless military actions around the world. Vietnam is a prime example and one of many. Nowadays, the “enemy” is simply called Corporate America. Its spinoffs include Corporate Greed, Corporate Welfare and, last but not least, the Corporate Media. NBC led its Saturday evening national newscast with five minutes of Iraq scare stories. Somehow the report failed to men tion that the empty warheads found in Iraq by U.N. inspectors were attached to old missiles with a range of only 12 miles. Finally, after the Bush propaganda report, NBC briefly mentioned the huge protest march in Washington. Jeezum crow, we thought, NBC sure sounds pro-war. Suddenly a light went off in our head. Actually, it was more like a light bulb. And on the light bulb was printed the name “General Electric.” As it was in the days of Ike, GE continues to be one of the world’s leading weapons manufacturers. GE claims it “brings good things to life.” Actually, GE brings many good people to death. A quick and sudden death. And, guess who owns NBC? Would you believe GE? W hat a coincidence, eh? *

Bait & Switch — Got to give credit where credit is due. And George W. deserves credit for pulling off one of the biggest bait-and-switch schemes of all time. You may recall that on September 11, 2001, a multimillionaire named Osama IN S ID E T R A C K »

her living in town for two years, my family has returned to Vermont’s countryside — the hills of Worcester, to be exact. And while I love the elbow room that comes with rural living, one aspect of it that drives me batty is snowmobiles. I know snowmobiling is the closest thing to the second coming of Christ in many parts of Vermont — Island Pond in particu lar — but, please, can someone tell me the point of it? I can’t even get myself to call it a sport, reserving that word instead for activi ties that involve more than just wrist-thrust ing and noise. You know, the sort of endeav or where the alcohol flows after the game? Snowmobiling has somehow wormed its way up there with Vermont’s sacrosanct activities, such as maple sugaring, hunting and leaf peeping. Proponents even like to call their form of recreation one of the state’s “traditional” outdoor activities. Sorry, but zipping around in loud, smelly and naturally abusive machines is a far cry from legitimate pastimes like fishing or snowshoeing. Those godfathers of snowmobiling, the Vermont Association of Snow Travelers, boast that they’ve carved more than 6000 les of trails through the state’s hills and valleys. Many of these trails have gotten so big that VAST now calls them “highways.”

iping arou n d in lo u d , telly an d n a tu ra lly a b u siv e ich in es is a far cry from litim a te p a s tim e s lik e thing or s n o w s h o e in g . But those are just the “official” passage ways for snowmobilers. As rural people who live near these trails know, the back roads and town highways are also becoming increasingly populated by snowmobilers. And they don’t appear to give a hoot about town laws forbidding them from using these roads. When I’ve attempted to stop snowmobil ers from riding on these roads, it hasn’t been a pleasant experience. I’ve been threatened with a “punch in the nose,” and, more often than not, risk being run over while trying to flag them down. The most baffling reaction I get from snowmobilers, however, is what appears to be sincere puzzlement that people would find their activity so troublesome. It seems pretty obvious that when you zip by a house on a machine raucous enough to rival a rock concert, there’s a good chance its residents will be annoyed. Then there’s the snowmobile smell. That stinky blue haze coming from the tailpipe is pure air pollution. According to a report by the California Air Resource Board, “one hour on a snowmobile’s two-stroke engine produces more smog-forming pollution than a modern car creates in a year.” Snowmobile enthusiasts love the twostroke engine for its quick acceleration. But these engines burn only about two-thirds of the fuel that passes through them; the rest is spewed directly into the air and onto the ground.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has estimated that snowmobiles are emitting nearly 25 percent as many hydro carbons as all the cars and trucks in the nation combined. Specifically, the EPA said in 1999 that 1.3 million snowmobilers spew 1.1 million tons of environmentally destruc tive hydrocarbons, while 85 million cars and trucks release 4.5 millions tons of the same pollutants. But these facts haven’t stopped snowmo biling from gaining popularity in Vermont, a state that likes to wear its supposed environ mental prowess on its sleeve. Last year, VAST had more than 40,000 dues-paying members, making it a powerful multimillion-dollar outfit that likes to cozy up to Vermont’s political elite. Executive Director Bryant Watson isn’t shy about his political affiliations, even as the head of a nonprofit that, according to the IRS, is forbidden to support political campaigns. In 2000, Watson sent out a bul letin to all local VAST chapters urging them to support Bush in the presidential election. He concluded his memo with these words: “Don’t forget, I have a good supply of ‘Snowmobilers for Bush’ bumper stickers. Give the office a call and we will send you one or as many as you want.” VAST knows who butters its bread. Nationally, the Republicans, led by snowmobiler Dick Cheney, have been busy disman tling Clinton-era restrictions on snowmobil ing in national parks. Here in Vermont, however, snowmobiling support has been a bipartisan effort. VAST has worked hard to gain political clout by extolling the activity’s “economic benefits.” The organization claims that snowmobiling brings more than $500 million to the state every year. This political heft forced former Gov ernor Howard Dean and the legislature to include snowmobiling as one of the permit ted activities in the protected region of the Champion Land preserve in the Northeast Kingdom. Dean even went so far as to regur gitate the VAST mantra that snowmobiling is one of the “traditional uses” of the Vermont landscape. The great disconnect between fact and reality in this claim was made embarrassingly apparent when the exgov declared that Vermonters had enjoyed “hundreds of years” of “traditional uses like hunting, hiking, logging and snowmobiling” on public lands. Hundreds of years? Hardly. The first crude snowmobile wasn’t even driven until the 1920s. VAST didn’t come into existence until 1967, and the sport wasn’t popularized until the 1980s. Many Vermonters would be shocked to know that VAST receives hundreds of thou sands of dollars annually from Vermont’s Agency of Natural Resources under the guise of “environmental improvement funds.” In fiscal year 2000, VAST received $799,000 from the ANR. So while many of us have to hold our breath and cover our ears when these machines roar by, the State of Vermont is handing them bundles of cash to continue the assault. For this rural dweller, it’s time to take back the woods, ®

THE PUZZLE:

As you can guess from her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre

(Note: Fickle Fannie likes words. B ut each week she likes something different about them— how they’re spelled, how they sound, how they look, what they mean, or what’s inside them.)

Given the choice, she'd rather be SMALL than insignificant.

She likes CIGARETTES, but thinks cigars are too symbolic.

Jupiter and Mars leave her cold, but she'd like to fly to the MOON.

itandard U n b e a ra b le ust as my column deadline loomed, I had an e-mail from someone who claimed to be my mother. That, at least, was what the return address said. “From: Mother. Subject: Please call me!” Before I had time to wonder why my mother hadn’t called me if something was so damned important, I opened the message and saw the words, “Enjoy new incest orgies,” followed by the URL of a “home orgy” Web site and the promise: “You will be shocked!” Well, if it were my mother I would be. But I knew it wasn’t. It’s true that she signs herself “Mother” and not

was very clever of the orgy people — but the only thing that could get her to send an e-mail would be death. My moth er is so far off the communications highway that she’s even stopped tele phoning C-SPAN to shoot Repub licans for sport, waiting, as we all are, for the end we know is nigh. No, it’s not the Rapture. Call it the “Capture” and name your target: Iraq, Congress, the courts, health care, the envi ronment, the Internet, the military, your grandmother’s nickels and dimes — the Bushmen are well on their way to dismant ling the federal government as we know it, and if they seem a little hasty these days it’s because Dubya’s numbers are falling faster than anyone expected. Everyone agrees that a war will raise his ratings, at least temporarily, “until the body bags start coming home.” W hat’s with the “body bags,” anyway? Do we never get to see the face of war? You’d think “after 9-11” — a phrase now appearing in nine out of 10 news stories every day — that Americans might have a lingering mem ory of the real thing. But you’d also think that an independent investigation o f the slaughter would have been ordered — and completed — at once, and that Americans would rise in anger if it wasn’t. Where are all the “special prosecutors?” Abolished after the Clinton impeachment plot, that’s where — it won’t do to have everyone poking around this president’s affairs. If nothing else, Bush’s drop in the polls has left him feeling grouchy. “Time is run ning out on Saddam Hussein,” he warned last week. It’s been running out for so long now that people are beginning to notice it can keep running nicely as it is, without a war. “I am sick and tired o f games and deception,” Dubya stamps, “and that is my view on timetables.” Asked again about his “inevitable” invasion o f Iraq, he snapped at a reporter, “I’m the person who gets to

decide, and not you.” Bush is also alleged to bark at his staff and advisers, “Sit!” when he struts into a room and they all leap to their feet. O n Capitol Hill, the Nation’s Physician, good, caring, heroic, honest Dr. Frist, will be steering the Senate wherever the White House wants it to go. And in the House, former Texas pest exterminator Tom DeLay, as evil a creature as ever infested Congress, has been out-Bushing Bush in his role as Republican “policy maker.” This will make Bush himself seem “moderate” by comparison. These boys have it covered, make no mistake. The New York Times quotes “a sen ior White House official” on the ouster of Trent Lott: “The future of the party is defined by the president and the policies that he proposes and by the actions that he takes. The party is defined by its standardbearer, not by events that swirl around somebody else who may be important to the party but is not the standard-bearer.” The standard-bearer, God help us, is “Prince Valiant” W. Bush, heir to a great American “dynasty” whose record of cor ruption is rivaled only by the Duke and Duchess of Windsor’s efforts to cozy up to Hitler in World War II. For this oil-stained pack of jackals we should go to war? The late Richard Nixon once dismissed Prince Valiant’s father, George H.W. “Not a W imp” Bush, as “someone you appoint to things.” Not, in other words, a mighty brain, and without a triumph to his name or legacy — ask any “G ulf War” veteran. It’s all being done now through the son and heir — the standard-bearer. During his Christmas radio address, Valiant reminded us that the holidays were a time of hope and a sign that God was with us. “The world we live in is very different from the world of ancient Bethlehem,” said the Yaleeducated prince. But “our need for that hope is still unchanged. In all the chal lenges and dangers of our day, we still seek the promise of peace on Earth.” The White House Christmas card also featured the word “Peace” in prominent letters. Meantime, U.S. troops are being sent to the G ulf with copies of Shakespeare’s Henry V — “Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more ... Follow your spirit, and upon this charge / Cry ‘God for Harry, England, and Saint George!’” America’s “all-volunteer” army might also want to take a look at the instructions issued to Japanese kamikaze pilots in World War II, recently translated and published in English: “Transcend life and death. W hen you eliminate all thoughts about life and death, you will be able to totally disregard your earthly life. This will also enable you to concentrate your attention on eradicat ing the enemy with unwavering determina tion, meanwhile reinforcing your excellence in flight skills.” Quoting a Henry V exit line: “Alarum, and chambers go off.” Better get ready; they won’t be all that does. ®

Dear Cecil, Is it true that half— (or one-third, depending on whom you talk to) — o f marriages in the US. end in divorce? I ’ve heard various numbers on the subject, none citing a source, and I ’d like the straight dope. — Tim Nashville, Tennessee One wants to put an optimistic spin on things, so here’s the best I can do: Half of U.S. marriages haven’t ended in divorce yet. But we’re definitely headed in that direction. Some people are in denial about this. They say the appar ently high marriage failure rate is based on a misinterpreta tion of statistics. Here’s a quote I found on several Christian Web sites, attributed to J. Allan Petersen, who publishes a newsletter called “Better Families”: Pollster Louis Harris has written, ‘The idea that half of American marriages are doomed is one of the most specious pieces of statistical nonsense ever per petuated in modern times.’ It all began when the Census Bureau noted that during one year, there were 2.4 million marriages and 1.2 million divorces. Someone did the math without calculating the 54 million marriages already in existence, and presto, a ridiculous but quotable statistic was born. Harris concludes, ‘Only one out of eight marriages will end in divorce. In any single year, only about 2 percent of existing marriages will break up.’ Louis Harris did say something along these lines in 1987, in his book Inside America. Whether the part about only one in eight marriages ending in divorce was true then I won’t say. But it’s not true now. We learn this from a recent docu ment released by the U.S. Census Bureau, “Number, Timing, and Duration of Marriages and Divorces: 1996” {Current Population Reports, February 2002), available at www.census.gov/prod/2002pubs/p7080.pdf. Based on a nationally representative survey of about 37,000 households (69,571 individuals), the report shows that, as of 1996, in every age group except 25 and under the proportion of divorced people exceeded one in eight, and for those 40 and older it exceeded one in three. The highest incidence of divorce occurred among 50-year-old women,

45/46

38/38

41/40

34/31

36/32

To put it another way, among leading-edge baby booi ers — on the chart, 45-and 50-year-olds — more than percent have already been divorced at least once, and clo: to half are expected to divorce at some point in their livi Among those born in 1971, smack in the middle of Generation X, more than half are predicted to divorce, God knows what those flighty slackers in Gen Y will do Sure, such projections may not pan out. But when the Census Bureau did a similar study in 1975, it figured th only a third of leading-edge baby boomers would end u divorcing, substantially underestimating the rate at whicl divorce has already occurred in that group. Other sure signs that the country is going to hell in a handbasket, presented in good news/bad news fashion: • Good news: According to the National Center for Health Statistics, the proportion of children born to sing mothers leveled off at around 33 percent in 1994, after increasing steadily for over 50 years. • Bad news: In 1940 the rate was 4 percent. • Worse news: In 1999 the proportion of black childii born to single moms was 69 percent. But lest you think such high rates of unwed motherhood are confined to pe sons of color, in 1998 the proportion of births to unmarif women in Iceland was 64 percent. • Good news: Last year the Centers for Disease Control reported that the teen birth rate had fallen from 62 births p<| 1000 in 1991 to 46 per 1000 in 2001, a decline of 26 percei| • Bad news: In 1940 the rate was 7 per 1000. • Not sure what kind of news: As of 2000, what had once been the nation’s most common domestic arrangemi — a married couple living with their children — had declined to 24 percent of all households, according to the Census Bureau. The most common arrangement now: mi ried couples without children, 29 percent. A national disa ter? Hardly — empty nesters have been a leading factor in the revival of city centers in recent years. Better we shouli quit whining about the decline of traditional values and with the world as it is.

f l at Glitters

he Oscar race kicked into overdrive last weekend as the two award ceremonies closest in stature to the Academy Awards handed out their statuettes. The Critics’ Choice telecast aired Saturday on E! and the Golden Globes broadcast was carried Sunday by NBC. Both were glitzy and studded by Hollywood’s biggest stars. Both attracted vast audi ences. Both appeared to be highly credi ble affairs, but the little-known fact is that one is legitimate and the other is a scam, Tinseltown’s dirty secret. The recipients of Critics’ Choice Awards are determined by North America’s largest body of professional reviewers — the Broadcast Film Critics Association. In contrast, the Golden Globes are given out by a tiny, border line shadowy cartel called the Holly wood Foreign Press Association, a group tainted by a long history of corruption and questionable taste. First televised in 1996, the Golden Globes have risen to their place of prominence via well-documented, clear ly unethical dealings between HFPA members and movie industry insiders. Their purpose? To position certain titles, performers and filmmakers for optimal Oscar consideration in exchange for extravagant gifts and favors. Motionpicture payola is what it boils down to. “At the studio, we were told about the Hollywood Foreign Press,” an ex publicist confided anonymously to a Brills Content writer in 2001. “Take them out to a nice hotel, order the best bottle of champagne and you’ll get whatever you want from them.” Buying Foreign Press votes is costeffective, to say the least. Studios bring in billions annually and can well afford to wine, dine and otherwise pay off the organization’s 90 or so members. Money spent is recouped many times over through revenues generated when a release earns either a Golden Globe or an Oscar. Some of the group’s strongest detrac tors are critics themselves. “These illdressed people slump in and help them selves to all the food,” Time's Richard Schickel has complained. Aljean Harmetz wrote in the Los Angeles Times that HFPA members are perceived as “free loaders who would sell their votes for a vodka and tonic and cross the Alps for a hot dog.”

The Foreign Press may not be well respected, but everyone seems to agree it’s well fed. NBC has agreed to pay the group $30 million over 10 years for the right to air the GGA. Not bad. Particu larly in light of the organization’s non profit, tax-exempt status. O f course, that didn’t stop the FfFPA this fall from threatening to go elsewhere if NBC didn’t sweeten the deal. Ultimately the show’s producer, Dick Clark, bitchslapped the group into honoring its commitment. As Sharon Waxman pointed out recently in the Washington Post, “The money raked in by the Golden Globes telecast gives HFPA members privileges unheard of in other press organizations. Each active member can take two frilly paid trips to film festivals of his or her choice annually. The association pays air fare for studio press junkets.” Members also “get unparalleled access to movie stars and directors, with studios holding press conferences for them with every movie release,” Waxman further reports. “Stars are required to pose for individual photos with every member who attends.” She goes on to describe the special treatment afforded Foreign Press mem bers by top movie-industry brass. “Typical was a lavish affair that members attended this fall at the home of Chris McGurk, vice-chairman of MGM. Every studio-run screening for the HFPA also features cocktails or dinner or both, which is not the case for other media screenings.” O f course, Oscar season lasts only a few months. At other times of the year, members of the group are occasionally forced to pick up their own tabs. That’s where that NBC money comes in handy. It makes possible the more than $5000 a month the HFPA spends on members-only Beverly Hills luncheons. By way of contrast, that sum represents the total annual salary the BFCA pays its director, Joey Berlin. Naturally, a voting body needn’t have lots of members to be legitimate. Nine teen people comprise the Pulitzer Prize Board. There are a mere nine judges on the Supreme Court. Some well-respect ed film-critic groups have modest con stituencies. The Los Angeles Film Critics Association, for example, is made up of 53 members. The New York Film

Critics Circle has but 34. Critics’ Choice awardees are selected by a membership numbering just under 200 professional film reviewers — yours truly among them — working through out the U.S. and Canada. The Golden Globes, on the other hand, are divvied out by a motley clique whose member ship is not only comparatively small but composed of people who in many cases don’t even make or review movies for a living. “They’re like the Beverly Hillbillies,” that anonymous ex-publicist told Brills, whose reporter wrote, “Members have been called corrupt and, perhaps more tellingly, have been derided by Holly wood insiders as incompetent, slovenly and junket-buffet gluttons... a decided ly ragtag band of outsiders.” As revealed by the Washington Post, “Perhaps two dozen are working foreign journalists; a larger number are longtime members who freelance infrequently for small overseas publications... and strug gle to produce the four yearly clippings they need to qualify as members. A large number... make their living at other professions, including... real estate, car sales and film promotion.” According to an account published previously in the same paper, one HFPA member lists his occupation as running “an auto referral service.” Which may explain some of the jaw-droppingly bad choices the Foreign Press has made over the years. “Boneheads” was the word Rolling Stone reviewer Peter Travers used after the HFPA listed Patch Adams and The Mask ofZorro among its Best Comedy/ Musical nominations in 1999. In 1995 rumors flew to the effect that Sharon Stone traded favors for the GGA she was given for her work in Casino. One can only speculate as to the nature of those favors. Their effectiveness, on the other hand, is beyond question. Not only did the Foreign Press end up giving

her a Best Actress award, it also ended up giving her favorite charity, the Amer ican Foundation for AIDS Research, truckloads of money. The defining moment, though, came in 1982 when the HFPA in its wisdom bestowed New Female Star of the Year honors on Pia Zadora for her unforget table work in the classic Butterfly. In an eerie coincidence, the actress’ multi-mil lionaire husband, Meshulam Riklis, had flown members of the organization to Vegas for several days of Caligula-level R&R just a few weeks earlier. I can personally attest to the fact that Hollywood knows better than to pull that kind of stuff with the BFCA. Aside from some very friendly letters and e-mails, an armful of soundtrack CDs and 75 or so “For Your Consideration” video and DVD screeners, I was offered nada. That is, except for a Paul Simon greatest-hits collection, a private screen ing of Catch M e I f You Can courtesy of DreamWorks, a numbered, limited-edi tion Spirit: Stallion o f the Cimarron lith ograph and the option to come on out and hang with My Big Fat Greek Wedding costar John Corbett. No sign of cradle-robbing millionaires. Not one freebie that could qualify as lavish. Oh, well, maybe next year. I mean, I would n’t have it any other way. If you happened to catch the two broadcasts, you know what I’m talking about. More than 20 years after the Pia Zadora debacle, those auto-referring goofballs in the Foreign Press are still making fools of themselves in front of millions. Goofball highlights of Sunday’s broadcast included a segment in which the HFPA director promoted the orga nization’s latest charitable effort: screen ing Hollywood films for starving kids in Africa! My favorite, though, was the moment when About Schmidt star Jack Nicholson picked up his award for Best Actor in a Drama and had to admit, “I don’t know whether to be happy or ashamed. I thought we made a comedy.” Nicholson, it goes without saying, hasn’t any reason to be ashamed. Foreign Press members, on the other hand, might want to think about giving the free drinks a rest long enough to actually watch the movies they vote on next January. (7)

successfully orchestrated a daring and murderous scheme to destroy the twin towers o f New York City’s World Trade Center and blow up a big chunk o f the Pentagon. You may also be aware of the fact that it wasn’t the first time Osama blew up American targets. For years Osama has called for a holy war against America and Americans. After some delay in returning to the Capitol on 9/11 to take control of the situation, Dubya promised we’d track down Osama and catch him “dead or alive.” Indeed, since Osama’s success ful strike, 9/11 has affected all of us deeply. Orwellian legislation has been passed to snoop on the citizenry. Countless unsubstanti ated terror alerts have been issued by the W hite House. The defense budget has skyrocketed and the national deficit has ballooned to an all-time high. Time and time again, Mr. Bush has declared his number-one job is to protect us, but Osama remains a free man and hundreds . of thousands of Americans in uni form are being placed in harm’s way throughout the Persian G ulf region. But they’re not there to catch Osama or to destroy al Qaeda. They’re there to topple Iraq’s Saddam Hussein. George Bush has deftly duped the citizenry to transpose the face of Saddam onto the image of Osama. Americans now think we’ll avenge 9/11 by blowing Iraq to kingdom come and capturing Saddam’s head on a platter. But friends, not even our macho president has been able to link Saddam to 9/11. A search on the W hite House’s official Web site turns up 363 hits for “Saddam.” A search for ‘Osama” turns up just 173. In fact, in the last six months, Mr. Bush and his Minister of

orkplace dysfunction has “D ilbert.” N ow city planning has “You Can Plan O n It!” City planning? you’re think ing. W here’s the h u m o r in that? W hether you know it or not, city planning is integral to our everyday life, shaping the look o f our com m u nities and our nation, and the comic “You Can Plan O n It!” offers up com m entary on the direction we’re headed. T h e first installments poke fun at America’s super-size-it m entali ty — w hich starts w ith fast food and ends w ith oil tankers — and the m yth that there’s no parking dow n town. “I d o n ’t view the strip as really too radical,” says “You C an Plan O n It!” w riter H erb A nspraw l, a.k.a. W ayne Senville. T h e B urlington res ident is also editor o f the P lanning Commissioners Journal, in w hich his strip recently debuted. Senville, w ho collaborates on the strip w ith D arrin Bell, a n o rth ern C alifornia artist, adds th a t the strip isn’t m eant to dis all developm ent. “C ertain developm ent is a very good th in g ,” he says. “D evelopm ent th a t’s poorly planned — th a t’s w hat causes the problem s.” Fail to plan and you plan to fa il. Sounds like boring, schoolmarmish advice, but it’s true. W hether you’re making your own dinner m enu or m apping the route o f an interstate, planning forces you to look ahead to w hat you w ant your life — or your com m unity — to be and then figure out how to get there. For cities and towns, thoughtful planning can mean the difference between a healthy, thriving com m unity and a place plagued by sprawl, congestion and unchecked developm ent — or worse, a mass m igration out o f town. Senville has devoted the better part o f his adult life to planning — first for the N ational Park Service, then as director o f regional and local plan ning assistance for the Verm ont D epartm ent o f H ousing and C om m unity Affairs. In the 1990s he served nine years on the Burlington Planning Com m ission, including three as chair, and today is on the steering com m ittee for his N eighbor hood Planning Association. H e start ed publishing the Planning Commis sioners Journal m ore than a decade ago, in response to the dearth of materials available for non-profession al planners. “I realized there was definitely a niche m arket for this,” he says. “T he articles are w ritten at a more basic level and explain the jargon.”

W hile m any com m unities em ploy professional planners, in cities like B urlington, planning com missions — legally m andated boards m ade up o f appointed citizens — are largely responsible for creating and m aintaining their com m unity’s spe cial character. These “citizen plan ners” p u t in m any unpaid hours, cre ating w hat’s know n as a com prehen sive o r m aster plan for their com m u

nities. This basically docum ents goals for the town’s future that can include such disparate things as transporta tion plans and requirements for pub lic art. Some planning commissions also give the thum bs up or down to indi vidual building proposals. (Until recently that was the case in Burling ton, but two years ago a Development and Review board took over that function.) Senville recently conducted a survey that confirmed w hat he already suspected: M ost commission ers around the country work in real estate, development or law, but few have any professional planning back ground. William E. “Micky” Moore, a planning commission chairperson from rural South Hill, Virginia, and a longtime Planning Commissioners Journal subscriber, is a strong propo nent o f educating citizen planners. “States m andate planning commis sions, but there’s no money for train

is n o

la u g h in g

m a tte r

They’re good people, business leaders and so forth, but they’ve got no background in zoning and planning.” O ne o f Senville’s main challenges is to make sure articles resonate with a nationwide audience, even though state laws vary and the problems o f an East Coast city differ from those o f a rural midwestern town. H e must be succeeding: Each quarter the Journal goes out to 1700 com m uni ties as far-flung as O rlando, Florida, and Anchorage, Alaska. In every Journal issue, experts from around the country tackle topics like the his tory o f planning and zoning, ideas for com batting sprawl, and ways to provide affordable housing. Articles also examine legal and ethical matters and give hints on running effective meetings and encouraging com m uni ty participation. “There are certain responsibilities that go with being a planning com

t’s lunchtime at N.E.C.I. Commons, and the upstairs din ing room is the picture of bustling Burlington. That may explain why Billy Mauer picked this spot to discuss his plans for the Church Street Marketplace. One of the biggest downtown property owners has also arranged for a friendly audience. The Canadian developer and real estate attorney agreed to an interview only if two staunch city supporters could chaperone the proceedings. Burlington City Arts Director Doreen Kraft and Church Street Marketplace Director Ron Redmond take their seats for lunch, but stay pretty quiet during the course of the conversation, which Mauer domi nates from the head of the table. The 61-year-old Mauer certainly knows the importance o f choosing the right location. He’s a commanding pres ence with strong feelings about Burlington, the waterfront and the future o f downtown. I’m interested in asking him about one property in particular: 116 Church Street, a building on the northeast corner of Church and College streets that Mauer purchased in October from Irv Abrams. As commer cial real estate transactions go, this was like scoring season tickets on the 50-yard line — it’s one of the most desirable locations in Chittenden County. Here a landlord can command some of the highest rents in the

city, between $25 and $35 per square foot for first-floor retail space. But Mauer — charismatic, energetic and unapologetically blunt — prefers to discuss bigger-picture issues. “If Burlington is going to continue to exist, we have to save the down town corridor,” he says, glancing occasionally at a typed list of “points to get across” on the table. “How you save it is by attracting good little bou tiques, not by having Home Depot come in.” Big-box stores are one o f Mauer’s favorite targets. So are suburban sprawl, gaudy signage, hastily constructed strip malls and ill-conceived architecture, all o f which fall under his general rubric of “cheap crap.” As a developer and investor, Mauer prefers “quality, not quantity:” threeand four-story historic buildings, usually on a corner and in need of ren ovation, into which he pours considerable time and money. But unlike some developers, Mauer holds on to virtually all the properties he buys. “Its a very different approach,” says Michael Monte, director of Burlington’s Community and Economic Development Office. “You don’t get the sense that Mauer is coming in just to make some money and walk away. He likes this town and enjoys the process. He brings value that way. Unless you deal in commercial real estate or own a business on the Church Street Marketplace, Billy Mauer’s name probably isn’t familiar, even though his buildings are. Kitty-corner from the property he just bought at 116 Church, Mauer owns the corner building that houses the men’s clothing store Michael Kehoe. He also owns the buildings that host the Church Street Tavern, Bangkok Bistro and Uncommon Grounds. The Charter O ne Bank building on the corner o f College and St. Paul also belongs to Mauer. In all, the Montreal native and part-time Stowe resident owns more than a dozen properties in downtown Buffington alone, including five on Church Street, five on College, two on St. Paul and one on Main. Soon he will break ground on a 128-acre industrial park on Hinesburg Road, which he says took him nine years to get re-zoned. He also owns the Chelsea Grill in Stowe and numerous properties in Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa. These days, however, Mauer’s sights are firmly set on Burlington.

L ik e m a n y a s u c c e s s f u l b u s in e s s m a n , Mauer has ruffled a few feathers in town, especially with some of the occupants of 116 Church Street. Most have either vacated the premises already or been told they must be out soon to make way for renovations scheduled for the spring. Among them are Irene Callisto, owner of the lingerie shop Isadora, and Laurie Brooks, owner of Le Petit Magasin, a children’s cloth ing store. Both contend Mauer is trying to muscle them out of their leases in order to drive up the rent. As expected, people’s views of Mauer tend to reflect where their own interests lie. Praising parties may do business with him: commercial real estate agents, bankers, officials with the city o f Burlington and the Church Street Marketplace. Those with harsher views tend to be com petitors or disgrunded tenants. Few o f his critics, however, are willing to go on the record, which may speak to Mauer’s growing influence in Burlington. As one soon-to-be ex-tenant put it, “He’s a scary person, but

Jm ldn’t want to be quoted saying anything about him in the paper. There’s a very ■ d possibility he’ll be my landlord again | | r ' soon.” B ledmond is one of Mauer’s more vocal ip sorters. “Billy Mauer is definitely cut oj n a different cloth,” he says. “He comes r f l 1jngS with this incredible amount o f enerWhenever I see him he’s got 14 ideas of rhat we ought to be doing. As trite as it 3unds, he really gets it. Everything I’ve seen im do is better than it was before.” ■ tedmond’s enthusiasm for Mauer is me erstandable. As director of the quasijovernmental body that oversees what is bly the most important retail district in ont, Redmond knows how vital Church g f tc

such as the need to update plumbing and wiring or remove asbestos and lead paint. Few would argue that after 22 years the Church Street Marketplace is beginning to show its' age. Redmond asserts that Mauer is just the kind of developer to get the job done. Mauer cites 116 Church as an example. He claims the building’s fire insurance was canceled several months ago not only because events at the Rhombus Gallery upstairs were exceeding its occupancy limit, but also because the building’s previous owner had neglected to install proper fire doors and other mandated safety equipment. “If, God forbid, a fire had started in the building, 20 to 25 people would have died,” Mauer says. “If you had a son or daughter, a

emphasize pedestrian traffic and de-emphasize cars. And no one claims he hasn’t done an impressive job of restoring Burlington’s historic buildings. Rather, they take issue with what one business owner says is Mauer’s apparent willingness to get his way regardless of the consequences. O n Nov. 27, the start of the make-orbreak Christmas season for downtown retail ers, Isadora owner Irene Callisto received a certified letter from Mauer’s attorney notify ing her that she had to “immediately vacate the premises” of 116 Church Street by Dec. 15, or else her front door would be pad locked. The letter claimed she was in arrears for more than $9000 in back rent. From all accounts, the building’s previous owner, Irv

cases are now in litigation. He does note, however, that “A lot of people are in business who shouldn’t be,” and says he only gets com plaints from tenants who don’t pay their rent. “You know what really gets me upset?” Mauer asks. “Right away everyone looks at me like I’m a greedy capitalist. But everybody knows there are rules to be followed.” Another business owner on Church Street — who also chooses to remain anonymous — says Mauer’s “hardball” style reflects the increasing gentrification of the Church Street Marketplace and a leaner, meaner business climate that is increasingly reliant on national chain stores. Another unidentified source — a tenant who’s been there for more than a decade — says what makes Church Street unique is its funky mix of local cottage industries on the strip’s upper floors. And those, he says, will quickly disappear once rents go through the roof. While Redmond agrees that you didn’t see many national stores on Church Street 20 years ago, he rejects the notion that national chains have been bad for local businesses. “Some Vermonters say, ‘Oh, my God! There are nationals on Church Street!”’ says Redmond. “But if you talk to the merchants who have locally owned businesses, they will tell you what it’s done is bring people down town to discover the locals. It’s maintained our vitality.” And as he points out, national chains still make up only 40 percent of the retail businesses on the Marketplace. In fact, locals recently have replaced national stores in some locations. “Today, any healthy shopping area is filled with national tenants,” adds real estate agent Bill Kiendl of V /T Commercial, which han dles the leasing for the Burlington Town Center. “I don’t necessarily love it, but it is

Street is to Burlington’s economy — and * >wvital Mauer is to Church Street. Each the Marketplace generates close to $1 lillion in property taxes alone and draws an mated three million visitors to town, tcluding many city planners from around le country looking to duplicate its success, almost goes without saying that the urch Street Marketplace is both the city’s nomic and social nexus, what Senator Leahy once called “Burlington’s front >rch.” ‘ Look, who wants to live downtown? The !es, the divorced, young married and Ider people,” Mauer explains. “Those with § tree children don’t want to live there. We nave to make the downtown a complete 24flour center like we did in Montreal. If not, what you’ll have is L.A. They leave L.A. at | ve o clock and don’t come back until nine 0 clock the next morning. If that’s what you want, fine.” Redmond adds that most successful downtowns — such as in Austin, Boston, |»oulder and Philadelphia — are those that maintain a healthy mix o f pedestrian traffic around the clock. But to do so requires investors with the financial wherewithal to create mixed-use development — that is, lo t h commercial and residential space in the 1 une building. Inevitably, that’s more expenI ve in an urban core than in the suburbs. To build a parking space in downtown Ian be $10,000 to $15,000 per space, whereI s if you plow a field it’s only two grand a I pace,” says Redmond. There are other I nforeseen expenses with the older building Itock of historic districts like Church Street,

17-year-old college student from UVM in there one night for a poetry reading who got hurt, you wouldn’t be so happy with me. “Bottom line, without all the B.S., it takes money,” Mauer adds. “I don’t want a Tiffany’s store and a Saks Fifth Avenue. But I do want to see more Mercedes Benz in the streets than tow trucks hauling away the local junk.” Mauer doesn’t deny that once he reno vates a building the rents go up. The upscale apartments he created above Michael Kehoe go for $1450; those above Bangkok Bistro rent for $1650. But he says that’s all part of creating a more prosperous downtown. “You know, we pay a hefty fee to be a pan of Church Street. It’s expensive,” he says, referring to the special assessment district fees that cover maintenance and special events on the pedestrian mall. “Wal-Mart goes in and pays $4 [per square foot], where our tenants pay $34. How the hell can we compete?” But what about affordable housing in the downtown core? “Look, give me an afford able plumber and I’ll give you affordable housing,” Mauer says.

S o m e b u s i n e s s o w n e r s on Church Street don’t like Mauer’s style. They resent this “outsider” with his “big-city ideas,” aggressive business style and “wheelbarrows of cash.” But they don’t necessarily disagree with the principles he espouses, which, in the ver nacular o f city planners, is sometimes called “New Urbanism” — creating diverse, vibrant, mixed-use neighborhoods that

Abrams, maintained a very casual relationship with his tenants and was flexible about when rents were due. Callisto claims Abrams never even charged her for heat or other utilities. Callisto doesn’t deny she fell behind in her rent payments, but says she paid Mauer the money he was owed as soon as she received his notice. She also says Mauer began telling city officials and others that her retail space would soon become available, despite the two years left on her lease. “If you locked up every store on Church Street that owes money, the whole street would be empty,” Callisto argues. “This isn’t a hobby for me. I have debt service I need to pay. Plus, I have a lease. That’s the important thing.” Next door at Le Petit Magasin, Laurie Brooks says she received a similar letter. Like Callisto, she was never informed that the building had been sold, and only found out when architects came into her store one day and began measuring the walls for future renovations. “Church Street is supposed to be this quaint shopping area whose owners all live in the area,” says Brooks, who points out that she also has more than two years left on her lease. O f Mauer, she says, “I don’t know what his intentions are, but it’s clear he doesn’t want us here and wants us to fail.” “The point is, Billy Mauer wants us out of here because he wants more rent,” con cludes Callisto. “It’s like a big Monopoly board and he thinks he’s landed on Park Place. But we’re not going away that easily.” Mauer won’t speak on the record about either o f the women’s claims, saying both

what it is. If you talk to a landlord and say, ‘Do you want a Banana Republic or some fella who wants to start a new restaurant con cept?’ they’re gonna take Banana Republic.” Mauer bucked that trend at least once. W hen Wendy’s wanted to buy into the build ing now occupied by the Church Street Tavern, he chose local owners over the fastfood franchise. “I haven’t seen or heard from them in five years,” he says of his tenants. “They’re happy and I’m happy.” He’s still in a good mood on a subsequent tour of Montreal, where he and his wife live in a luxurious downtown high-rise built in 1962. As we zigzag the streets of the old city, Mauer eagerly shows off what the Queen City could learn from La Belle Ville. “The Burlington waterfront could be like this,” he says, indicating the new parks, shopping areas and mixed-use housing sprouting along the St. Lawrence River. “But we’re losing out to other cities.” Like his Volvo wagon, Mauer’s mind races from one idea to the next, each more ambitious than the last. “We need to put in cobblestones, nice lighting and take it down to the waterfront so that people want to park their cars and walk down there at night. And we’ve got to expand Church Street to Cherry and all the other side streets, make it all nice and fun.” Mauer definitely has a business stake in that scenario. But his use of “we” suggests a different kind of belonging. “I would rather be a Vermonter than anything else,” he sug gests. “I came here because I think this is the greatest city and state in the world. People don’t know how good they have it.” ®

SIRSY, AT THIS TIME (LIVE) (Self-released, CD) Sirsy are an above-average alternative-rock bar band that plays enjoyable, lightweight pop-rock with a bit of attitude. In between crowd cheering, band introductions and banter, the band manages to put in 12 tight performances, recorded for the band's new release, At This Time. The CD also includes one original demo track. "Whenever You're Around," is an enjoyable, bouncy number, with a nice flute and guitar counterpoint, reminiscent of The Cure's pop classic, "Boys Don't Cry." Overall, the live sound is pretty good. Singer Melanie Krahmer has a nice vocal versatility, waxing by turns soulful, angelic and downright bitchy while staying in command of the audience. Krahmer's flute is a nice addition to the standard guitar/bass/ drums/vocals lineup. While not necessarily groundbreaking in its songcraft, the band does have a good handle on its material and, given the live crowd's enthusiastic response, you can imagine Sirsy might be best appreciated live.

SARAH SLEAN, NIGHT BUGS (WEA/Atlantic, CD) Imagine PJ Harvey singing lonely Tom Waits barroom whiskey waltzes and you're in the ballpark with Sarah Slean's Nightbugs. She thinks and sings big, matching grand ambition with a powerful voice, and dramatic arrangements augmented by lazy horns and heart-tugging strings. The songs are built around Slean's piano and vocals, and range from majestic and swoon-inducing to intimate and theatrical. The dynamics on this record are excellent, moving from haunt ing, sparse, electronic-tinged soundscapes to full-blown show tunes. It's hard to stop listening to it, and repeated listenings only increase the rewards. "Book Smart, Street Stupid" and "M y Invitation" are absolute charmers, with the latter relying on just piano and voice. Even the instrumental "Dark Room" has printed "lyrics," which work well as an accompanying text. "Sweet Ones" is a rollicking number, as is the closer, "Bank Accounts." Both these are standout tracks. Highly recommended for both overall sound and quality songwriting. A welcome debut from a star in the making.

ODDMAN — OUT

NEBULAI, (Re-Perkussionz of Sovereign Art, CD)

Burlington "folk/funk" artist Nebulai is an interesting new voice on the local singer-songwriter circuit. Instead of sticking to the traditional "gu y and guitar" format, he weaves together African instrumentation, deep, soulful vocals and turntable scratching to create a refreshing mod ern pop mosaic. Originally hailing from southern Vermont, Nebulai recently relocated to the Burlington area to further his music career. After several years as the lead vocalist, percussionist and didgeridoo player with tribal-folk group Township Earth, Nebulai has released his solo debut, Odd Man — Out. Musically, the disc manages to be impressively funky and accessible. The majority of the songs feature a handful of well-known musicians, including guitarist Antara, bassist Chris Cheney, per cussionist Derrick Jordan and drummer Cheryl Reid. Lyrically, Nebulai isn 't afraid to get political. His informed, queer-conscious lyrics touch on issues of homosexuality, politics, sexual abuse and spirituality — topics modern songwriters often shy away from. After the soulful intro, "The Way You Do, Momodou," the disc kicks into gear with the bounc ing, uptempo funk of "Puzzle Piece." Over wah-wah guitar by Antara, Nebulai alternates between the wordless scatting of the chorus and languid, almost rapped verses. "Pledge Allegiance" fol lows, with spoken-word samples calling for sexual independence and Nebulai's personal, selfexploring lyrics. While Antara's acoustic guitar lick is carbon-copy folk-pop, the wordless vocals and layered backups turn the cut into punchy world-pop. Very little changes after this on Odd Man — Out. Nebulai and company continue with more hummable, politicized pop songs. Many of them feature the same soul-scat vocals and uncomfort ably similar guitar riffs. While the playing remains top-notch and Nebulai's delivery retains its soulful timbre, the formula begins to wear thin. The most interesting pieces in this collection were built upon field recordings Nebulai made while traveling in Africa. These tunes, including "Taxi Sequence: Asalam Alakum," "Didg. Peace" and "D on't Go Nebulai," are interesting experiments that wrap recordings of African chants and found-sound around simple, acoustic song structures. These tracks, more than anything else on Odd Man — Out, showcase the true multiculturalism of Nebulai's music. With his political and sexual commentary and ethnic leanings, Nebulai certainly adds a new element to the local music scene. And Odd Man — Out, despite its uniformity of sound, is a promising debut. Join Nebulai for a CD release party this Friday at 135 Pearl.

Artist Viiu Niiler, a native of Estonia, now counts herself one of them — she lives in Plainfield with her artist-husband Chet Cole. But a trip to the Pacific-island state resulted in dramatic, verdant images that couldn't be more different from her Green Mountain views. You might call them lava-ly.

ike other cafe venues throughout Vermont, Muddy Waters on Main Street in Burlington has modest visual art exhi bitions that rotate on a monthly basis. Perhaps Red Square, the Daily Planet, Penny Cluse and other cafe venues E X H IB IT should be known as “dual-purpose exhi Jaso n Boyd, bition spaces” rather than bars and new m ixed- restaurants. Some surprising artwork has m edia been known to appear above their tables pain tin gs. and booths. Muddy Waters, Jason Boyd’s 15 mixed-media works Burlington. at Muddy Waters this month provide a Through good example. Should the more discrim Jan uary. inating coffeehouse clientele look up from their newspapers and cappuccinos ARTWORK to consider Boyd’s work, they would dis "Racew ay," cover the vision of an emerging artist by Ja so n Boyd well on his way to becoming an excep tional one. IM A G E Boyd presents assemblage works, Matthew abstractions and even a few naturalistic Thorsen paintings. “Red Chicken Barn” and “Old Cheese Factory” are somewhat tra ditional pictures of what their titles indi cate. They have ornate used and junky frames that add a gritty touch to the otherwise fairly polished pieces. “Red Chicken Barn” is a coop with a pointed roof. A broad and featureless side of the barn faces the viewer as a red geometric shape. The painting has a shallow space and a distinctly Fauvist feel, with bright colors and animated brushstrokes. “Old Cheese Factory” is composi

tionally identical, with the red, pointed roof of the building right o f center and a strong vertical at the left edge of the pic ture plane. However, this painting has green architectural details breaking the red expanse of the foreground. It also has wide boards integrated into the edges o f the frame, giving the work an assemblage element. “Raceway” and “Confluence in Blue” are unadulterated assemblage works, but in them Boyd maintains a strong, paint erly approach. The drawn contour lines in the left half of “Raceway” are abstracdy engaging, and, along with the mangled license plate at the center of the piece, relay its narrative content. At right is a sort-of barrel form with stitched X ’s. “Confluence in Blue” has no narra tive per se. Vertical arcs drawn in graphite reach into the center o f the piece and separate three objects attached to the surface. At left is a dented metal box, at right is a painted board, and in the center is a palette knife. The board is painted with orange and red oxide, in contrast to the complementary pale blue that dominates the work. The variety of styles represented in Boyds show indicates that he’s a young artist still open to experimentation. Compared to the grizzled gallery artist who works a single theme ad museum, Boyd remains in a state o f grace.

One experiment appears to be an Abstract Expressionist collaboration. The pieces “Four Artists Painted this Painting I and II” were created by Boyd, Hannah Brooks, Christina Conat and Leslie Baker. Both paintings are about 3-by-6 feet and hang side by side. The four brush-wielding hands appear to have worked remarkably well in concert, like an incarnation of the four-armed goddess Shiva before an easel. Painting I contains warm colors and a large circle in the right half of the composition. Canvas II allows cooler colors to take center stage. Both pieces balance large and small forms. The only question is, what was the point of the exercise? The paintings are good, but probably no better than any o f the artists could have done alone. Not all cafes are suitable for art and not all art is suitable for cafes. The fact that Muddy Waters is booked more than a year in advance, however, demonstrates how popular these venues are among artists — despite generally less-than-perfect viewing conditions. As prestigious gallery venues come and go, its interest ing to consider how long many o f the bars and restaurants have been showing good-quality work. The Daily Planet, for example, has been at it for more than 20 years. A list o f its past exhibitors would surely read like a Who’s Who o f the Vermont art scene. ®

ou may need a few minutes to get used to the idea o f Pierce Brosnan and Julianna Margulies sounding like something out o f a Lucky Charms commercial, but once you get past that, the latest from Bruce (Driving Miss Daisy, Double Jeopardy) Beresford proves surprisingly engaging. Evelyn offers the fact-based account o f a Dublin mans David-and-Goliath fight for custody o f his two sons and daughter. Set in 1953, the film fea tures Brosnan in the role o f a downon-his-luck tradesman whose wife ran out on the family when he was be tween jobs. Irish law at that time gave

Evelyn is taken to another, Brosnan’s character has two choices: He can drown himself in Guinness or he can mount an unprecedented legal chal lenge. At first he goes with the Guinness. Over time, though, he gets his act together, inspired by Margulies’ bar maid and assisted by an unlikely legal team. Stephen Rea, Aidan Quinn and Alan Bates each create distinctive, highly likable characters with econo my and flair. Bates plays a retired celebrity attorney who had gone into law after an injury derailed his career as a rugby star. He’s a boozer, a rogue

and a schemer, and he provides the comic ballast necessary to keep the film from drifting into Lifetime Channel waters. Based on a script by Paul Pender, the picture is a lot more fun than you might expect. Sure, the family’s

breakup is a heart-rending sight. Sure, the scene in which a sadistic nun opens a can o f whoop-ass on her freckled, defenseless charge is disturb ing. And sure, it’s no picnic to watch as court after court shuts down Brosnan and his buds. At the same time, the Australian director — who miraculously is back at the top o f his game after a stinky streak in the ’90s — knows how to play host and entertain the audience while b lilding suspense, sort of, toward the big finish. A great many bar scenes are rollicking and loaded with humor, and the camaraderie between the father and his attorneys is uplifting. Nine-year-old Sophie Vavasseur shines every time she steps in front o f the camera. It’s been a while since I’ve seen a child actor with such an impressive combination o f sweetness, intelligence and strength. The story does end exactly the way you expect. What are you going to do? It’s true. The measure o f a movie like this is its ability to make hanging around worthwhile despite the prede termined outcome. By that standard — and virtually any other I can think o f — the verdict is clear: Beresford has made his best film in a decade. ®

Reel Righteousness s racism continues to plague America, PBS revisits one o f the country’s most infamous hate crimes in recent memory. The 1998 “dragging death” o f a black man in East Texas is examined in Two Towns of Jasper, a documentary on Vermont Public Television Wednesday, January 22, at 9 p.m. At the same time on Thursday, ABC newsman Ted Koppel hosts a live town meeting from Jasper. The young Two Towns filmmakers, Whitney Dow and Marco Williams, trav eled to the Lone Star State in 1999 to cover successive trials of the three local men

by the good ol’ boy Aryans. In some ways, Jasper is fairly enlight- . ened. The mayor and several other civic leaders are black. With the media spotlight on them, residents tear down a fence between segregated sections o f the town’s only cemetery — a separation everyone previously just took for granted. The white district attorney pledges diligence in prose cuting the capital-murder case. But while the D.A. tries to improve the nation’s image o f rural Texas, other officials announce that the schools will not observe the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday. This causes an uproar. Some citizens wonder why Jasper’s children are excused from classes on Rodeo Day. Footage of this festivity, which predominantly appeals to whites, reveals a parade with the Confed erate flag on display. Dow and Williams have not entirely mastered the medium — the narrative seems choppy at times — but their project is utterly thought-provoking. Race remains a topic that confounds us, everywhere.

arrested for killing James Byrd Jr. The accused —- including two avowed white supremacists who have Ku Klux Klan tat toos to prove it — beat the victim, spraypainted his face and chained him to the back o f a pickup truck.

In exploring both sides of Jasper's racial divide, Dow and Williams wisely decided on two crews, one black and one white, to interview townspeople according to skin color. interview townspeople according to skin color. The documentarians employ a sort of cinema vtriti approach to capture candid conversations in the historically insulated communities. At an African-American beauty parlor, patrons demonstrate skepticism that justice will be done, but a determination to abide by the law. “We didn’t bum anything,” one woman points out. “We didn’t go out and do an eye for an eye.” At a daily gathering o f the all-Caucasian “Bubbas in Training” breakfast club, some members express chilling views. “I think he should be judged by the way he lived, not the way he died,” contends one male Bubba, suggesting that Byrd’s personal demons somehow overshadow his slaughter

always tries to create a little sizzle with adventurous motion-picture events — especially welcome when the temperatures plunge. The World Cinema Series, which continues through March 9, offers two afternoon screenings each weekend of selec tions from Germany, England, France, Iran, Ireland, Italy and the United States. Between March 21 and 30, the globe will be particularly well-represented as the Green Mountain Film Festival unspools almost 30 features and documentaries. The fare, from Chile, Turkey, Russia, Maurita nia and other far-flung places, is eclectic. Some potential highlights: Das Experiment, in which psychology research goes awry at a simulated prison; All or Nothing, writer-director Mike Leigh’s potent domestic drama; Amen, by Constantin Costa-Gavras, who dares to question why Pope Pius XII failed to speak out against the Holocaust; Strange Fruit, a look at the legacy of a song about lynchings that was popularized by Billie Holiday; Blackboards, about itinerant teachers attempting to bring literacy to impover ished people living along the Iran-Iraq border. The fest includes two entries from the Green Mountain State: Bess O ’Brien’s Here Today, which tackles heroin use in the Northeast Kingdom; and the New England premiere of Nosey Parker, the John O ’Brien movie about a citified couple adjusting to countrified ways.

The Montpelier filmmaker shot near the World Trade Center in the weeks following the terrorist attacks, then queried people back home about their perspectives on the geopolitical situation. He’ll screen the results at the University of Vermont’s Lafayette Building, Room 108, at 6:30 p.m. on Wednesday, February 19. Con sidering the Bush administration’s current imbroglios with Iraq and North Korea, the world seems to be getting madder every day. ©

_ | j'nce again we've selected scenes from four well-known movies and, through the magic of Film Quiz Technology, zapped the famous faces of their stars right out of the picture. Your job, as always, is to identify the four films anyway, minus their stars and with only a single clue-ridden scene apiece to go on.

MONKIN' AROUND The Soldier Monks of China's ancient Shaolin Temple have been Kung-Fu fighting since 495 A.D. — the original martial art devel oped as a spiritual exercise. These days, though, they are going through the motions to drum up earthly cash to rebuild their secluded monastery. "Wheel of Life," a Shaolin fable from the misty past, tells the story <#the"Five Ancestors" who survive strife to spread the gospel of Zen Buddhism. Weapon-wielding monks in saffron-colored robes show off their skills in the the atrical spectacle that's packed with plenty of crouching tigers and hidden dragons. tr

I wasn't sure what to expect when I arrived at the Vermont Consultants Network Meeting; the words "consultant" and "network" can mean many things. I half-expected to stumble upon something kooky — a slick pyra mid scheme, say, or a gaggle of Dale Carnegie devotees practicing their cocktail party banter. But no, the VCN is legit It's a group of inde pendent consultants — database designers, insurance agents, business psychologists, etc. — who meet the third Thursday of every month to talk shop and listen to a presentation. During the "networking" portion of the meeting, I spoke to a few of the nine or 10 VCN members who woke up early enough to attend. "Consultants are people people," VCN president Larry Keyes told me. "They like the camaraderie of the meetings." VCN member Carl Lorentson claimed the group helped him start his business, Renaissance Information Systems, Inc. "You can read about business all you want," he said, "but five minutes talking to someone who's 'been there, done that' makes a big difference." VCN member Michael Gadue,-an internation al legal consultant, gave this month's presen tation, "From Macedonia to the Ukraine: Overseas Consulting Opportunities — Fact or Fiction?" As he spoke, I realized that he's one of the invisible guys behind all those news stories about U.S. foreign aid to developing countries. His insider take on overseas con-

It's too late to make reservations for Rutland's or Barre's bagpipe bashes, but single-malt aficionados and adventurous gourmands can still celebrate the birthday of Scottish poet Robert Burns. The Vermont Pub and Brewery's annual affair features more than a dozen "guid auld Scotch drinks" and generous helpings of haggis, tatties and neeps. Local poet Greg Delanty sets the tone for the inaugural Vermont Pub Poet Laureate Competition requiring the standard "Habbie" verse form employed by the Ploughman Poet. As Burns himself once said, "Freedom and Whisky gang thegither!"

PARALLEL LINES Jon Jang and James Newton may not literally see eye to eye, but the musical inspirations of the respective jazz masters can be traced to similar sources. On a trip to South Africa, the two discovered a kinship between Chinese "sorrow songs" and AfricanAmerican spirituals. "When Sorrow Turns to Joy" fuses jazz improv with gospel and traditional Chinese music, and pays tribute to legendary performer-activist Paul Robeson and Bejing opera star Mei Lanfang. "Robeson represented one of the earliest examples of a multicultural artist before the word was invented," the collaborators suggest. "We are trying to help carry his vision, legacy and promise of a better world to this new century."

MUSH CRUSH What is it about a sled dog race that makes the Vermont Chamber of Commerce list it as one of the "Top Ten Winter Events"? It's those doggone canines, of course. " I think it's the connection between dogs and people," offers Ingrid Bower, president of the Green Mountain Distance Mushers. "People are amazed that these dogs can contain all this excitement and focus it on a goal." But huskies and doglegs are only part of the daylong pooch picture. Hounds will be on hand to pull cross-country skiers skijor- style, while service dogs will display their skills in helping the disabled and help raise money for the cause. Non-participating pups should be left at home. T R U E C O M P A N IO N

30B I january 22-29, 2003 I SEVENDAYS

-BY ROB BREZSNY________________________________ _ JAN U A R Y 2 3 -2 9

You can call Rob Brezsny, day or night, for your expanded weekly horoscope 1-900-950-7700. $1.99 per minute. 18 and over. Touchtone phone.

ARIES {Mar. 2I-Apr. 19): In one o f your past lives you may have been a peasant who worked as a scullery maid at a rural castle and never traveled more than five miles from home your whole life. Or per haps you were the sickly bastard child o f a nun and monk, confined to bed and taught by private tutors in a remote section o f the monastery. Scenarios like that would explain why you now have the privilege o f being a proud, free, strong-willed and adventurous Aries. You must have paid your karmic debt last time around! Get ready to really capitalize on the old days in the next few weeks. I believe you’re about to harvest a blessing that you earned during your diffi cult past.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-M ay 20): In 1997, Jody Williams w on the Nobel Peace Prize for her work to persuade more than 100 countries to ban deadly land mines. W hen she held a press conference at the end o f a dirt road near her Vermont farmhouse, she was barefoot and wore jeans and a tank top. It reflect ed the unassuming nature that had served her so well during years o f dogged efforts to change the world. I nominate this ordinary hero to be your role model in the coming weeks, Taurus. According to my reading o f the astrological omens, your gradual, matter-of-fact persis tence will give you the power to make a fundamental improvement in the way your environment reflects your ideals.

GEMINI

(May 2 1 -June 20): Feeling daunted by loom ing deci sions? I’m happy to inform you that you’ll discover helpful clues in places where you’d normally never look. In

fact, the further outside your usual sphere you go, the more likely you are to find exactly what you need. Here are a few suggestions to whet your imagination: Pore over the journals o f American pioneers Lewis and Clark; ask a professional baker to create a loaf o f bread from scratch right in front o f your eyes; gaze at the planet Jupiter through a power ful telescope; go to a high perch where you can see for miles and miles.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): The passage below was written by the poet James Tate. As you read it, I’d like you to imagine that it describes an unfinished metaphor for a situation you’re actually involved in. Then write a few sen tences in which you speculate on what will happen next. Here’s the passage. “M ostly we were able to ignore the hairy thing in the corner. It seemed to be leaking some green fluid, but we could walk around that. It gave o ff an unpleasant odor, a cross between Limburger cheese and a decomposing skunk, but we never mentioned it. We didn’t seem to have a plan for getting rid o f it. It wasn’t really hurting anybody. And then one day I thought I heard it singing. And another day it seemed to say I love y o u ”

LEO

(J u ly 23-Aug. 22): Below are a few events that the cosmos is conspiring to put on your schedule in the com ing weeks. You could postpone them until later in the year, but I believe you’ll have best results if you surrender to their necessity in the near future. 1. Open your heart as far as it’ll go without ripping it apart. 2. Dive into a whirlpool o f emotions without being pulled to the bottom or swept away.

3. Deepen and intensify a juicy rela tionship with a worthy ally, but without distorting your relationship with yourself. 4. Get smarter about love than you ever dreamed it was possible to be.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may be able to elude the cos mic jokes that are brewing in your vicinity. Your intelligence is both crafty and practical these days, and it could very well keep you consistendy in the right places at the right times. But in order to grab an extra advantage in your guerrilla battle with the forces o f mischief, I suggest you indulge regularly in a good, long primal scream. Go out in the middle o f the woods if necessary, or find a sanctuary where no one will call the cops: Just find a way to unleash a soul-cleansing howl that will flush away your festering anxi eties. There’s no better technique for making yourself unappealing to ras cally demons and pests.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-O ct. 22): “After several hours o f careful rumi nation and a difficult weighing o f the possibilities,” said a character on the T V show “Frasier,” “I have decided to be playful today.” This is the exact approach I recommend for you in the com ing week, Libra. Be disciplined in your preparations for a wild release. Carefully organize the events that will allow you to explode in joyous spontaneity. Think long and hard about how you can bring more fertile, rejuve nating chaos into your life.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Here’s one o f my favorite para doxes. All o f us are eminently falli ble nobodies. We’re crammed with delusions and base em otions. We

give ourselves more slack than we ever give anyone else, and w e’re bril liant at justifying our irrational bias es with seemingly logical explana tions. And yet it’s equally true that every one o f us is a glorious creation unlike any other in the history o f the world. We’re all stars with inex haustible potential, gods and god desses in the making. This week, Scorpio, I suspect you will vividly embody this paradox, as you range from the ignom inious depths to the breathtaking heights.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-D ec. 21): To celebrate his birth day last month, seven-year-old Sagittarian Michael Wong-Sasso invited 40 kids to a party at his favorite spot: the Sunshine Canyon Landfill near Los Angeles. “I like putting trash where it belongs,” he told a reporter. “I like making the world cleaner. Recycling is good for all the people in the world.” I hope that you Archers are infected with a similar passion in the com ing week. Judging from the cosmic omens, I’d say this is an excellent time for you to get really excited about throwing away stuff you no longer need. Staging a bash at your local garbage dump may be a bit much, but how about getting together with your Sagittarian friends and sympathizers for a Purge the Junk Party?

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): I predict that you’ll be able to squeeze blood out o f a turnip this week. You’ll derive dramatic lessons from seemingly ordinary events. You’ll get more done in less time and draw more delight than usual from familiar pleasures. Sleep will be deep er and your dreamers richer, and therefore you may be able to go to bed later and wake up earlier. Your

body will extract more nutrients from the food you eat, and you’ll be able to suck secrets from even the most impenetrable mysteries.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Your birthday season begins now, Aquarius. It doesn’t matter whether the official date is today or in 25 days: You have astrological permission and poetic license to launch the celebration immediately and not finish up until February 18. May I suggest a few gifts you might give yourself in the course o f this glorious personal festival? To start off, present yourself with something luxurious, sensual, and elegant. Two days later, treat yourself to some thing bold, brash, and bright. Next, how about a legal high? And after that, maybe a Secret weapon, fol lowed by a magical tool, and then a map to buried treasure. Before you’re done almost four weeks from now, I hope you will have blessed yourself with at least seven exciting surprises.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): G ood news for all you hard-driving stress-managers who think you’re wasting time if you’re not doing two tasks at once: In the next few weeks, you’ll be working hard even while you’re fast asleep. Due to an unprecedented confluence o f your unconscious and conscious minds, your dreams will produce a number o f lucid revelations about your knottiest dilemmas. So please have a pen and notebook by your bed to scrawl down fleeting gems. And clear your schedule each morning so you can devote at least a half an hour to problem-solving while your nighttime insights are still fresh. Even if you don’t actually remember your dreams, their rich after-images will be with you subliminally, giv ing your analytical mind a boost.

LOLA the love counselor Dear Lola, Your English language has me all mixed up. I used to think I knew it pretty well, but then I moved here and found out that it's much more complicated. My question for you is this: What's the difference between a friend and a girlfriend? And what in the world is a "friend with benefits?" I hear these terms used in situations that don't seem to apply. Please explain. Bosnian in Burlington Dear Bosnian, If you're hanging out and having fun and having heartto-hearts and running over in the middle of the night to jump-start each others' cars, you're friends. If you're smooching in the moonlight and holding hands in cof fee houses and introducing yourselves to the world as a couple, you're girlfriends. If you're friends who also occasionally get each other off, but don't introduce yourselves to the world as a couple, you're probably friends with benefits. That said, if you're regularly jump-starting each other in bed, but can't be bothered to crawl out of bed to jump-start each others' cars, you'd probably be well-advised to find a different vehi cle for your love. Commit all of this to heart, and you, too, can become a cunning linguist. Love, Lola
