I would love to believe it, but I don’t. Reading the strategies for maintaining a marriage [“Good Spousekeeping,” Feb. 5] is like reading from a child’s wish list to Santa Claus, and about as likely to materialize as a winning lot tery ticket or world peace. Obscure strategies that are nearly impossible to obtain, like “marry the right mate” and “cultural compatibility” only serve to undermine and deny human nature. Humans, after all, are individual and highly complex. Throughout life our personal needs and desires are forever changing. Traditional marriage suggests adaptation to the constandy changing needs and desires of our spouse, and despite the changes, the spouse should still remain the “perfect mate.” It is unrealistic to say that one person can be everything another person requires for an entire lifetime; it is simply too much % to ask of a mere human. Given the complexity o f humans, I don’t believe marriage for a lifetime is realistic or necessary. I believe that marriage should equate to two individ uals enjoying each other’s company, whether it’s for a lifetime or a single moment, mutually meeting the current needs and desires o f each other. Be happy in the moment no matter if the moment lasts a lifetime or a day. As a society, we should stop elicit ing all the guilt associated with mar riages that don’t last a lifetime. We should accept the fact that one person cannot always fulfill or adapt to all the constantly changing demands of another person. Not many aspects in nature last forever, and likely fewer

share a lifelong relationship. Con sidering the complexity of human nature, why should we expect two individuals to pull off something that even nature can’t obtain?

matic growth” occurred 30 years ago for just this reason — so their children and now grandchildren could have a place in the farm it they so chose. Mr. Colby also neglects to mention a unique benefit of size in this case. Foster Bros, built and still operates a methane-producing facility, converting biomass into “green” electricity to power the farm and households nearby. The manure is then composted into

porting soils and garden additives. Each step in this process is labor-inten sive, and each component represents a huge capital investment. A smaller operation could never support the work force and amount o f debt neces sary in executing this indisputably environmentally beneficial process. “Infamous” indeed.

INSIDIOUS LEGISLATION I applaud that you are bringing to your readers’ attention the impact of [antiterroristj legislation on their privacy [“Mixed Media,” Feb. 12]. It would be even better to get more out there on its impact on civil rights.. But as you cover it, please make sure that in print it is reflected as an acronym, in caps; the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act. The title it is reflecting needs to be understood by

the public. It is for “Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism.” The expressed purpose as written right into this document is to deter and punish terrorist acts in the United States and around the world, to enhance law enforcement investigative tools, and for other purposes. The alarm bells start ringing for any con cerned reader of the Act at the phrase “and for other purposes” and get loud er with each provision of the act. The press would be doing a public service to focus more attention on this act and on its potential successor, The Domes tic Security Enhancement Act o f 2003, which has been leaked to PBS and was the subject of Bill Moyer’s show, NOW, and can be accessed through their Web site.

WAR GAMES It’s a shame Peter Freyne, Vermont’s premiere investigative reporter, isn’t given the opportunity o f exercising the talent. “Inside Track” is too focused on the obvious aspects o f war with Iraq. War protest, an automatic piety, is meat for the novice journalist. History is made from the quieter deliberations and tangential issues. From a pundit we expect the apopular view. Peter, oddly, keeps failing to step back to give us a larger view. In the larger view, it seems to me significant that, despite our unprece dented power, some of Europe is

standing up to us. T hat Russia is ally ing itself with European sentiment and drawing itself into a Greater Europe. That the Vatican and China are join ing in, while China at the same time is taking diplomatic initiative to moder ate N orth Korea for us. .. .Surely something is in the air when we’re opposed by friends and allies and supported by former antago nists. It looks to me like the stirring of true world community, something like democracy arising from hegemony. I frankly think we could knock Saddam out easily, not just because a lot o f Iraqis want him out, but because fate holds the biggest whammy in reserve: the long, messy business of keeping Iraq together afterwards, which would show our real ineptitude. Will we actually go to war, though? Barring accident and miscalculation, how much better and cheaper to just threaten! To prepare war, expecting (hoping!) that everyone else will stir themselves to make it unnecessary. Aside from the serious aspects, this is a grand show. Peter knows it and ought to be telling us about it.

Deputy Kelly Caiicoat of Eddy County; New Mexico, was dispatched to help two .women and five children whose van ramout of gas. When he found they had already been given gas, he decided to follow them to make sure it was enough to get them to town. On the way, the driver of the van exceeded the speed limit, so Caiicoat stopped it. He became suspicious and contacted the drug task force, whose agents discovered why the van had run out of gas. The gas tank contained 72 pounds of marijuana. The two women, Leticia Guadian, 24, and Vanessa Chavez, 22, were arrested.*•

Food Fright The manufacturer of some 8700 frying pans sold through television’s Home Shopping Network said they were being recalled because they can explode while in use.

Seventy-two days after leaving Peru try ing to row solo across the Pacific Ocean, Halsey was still 8000 miles from his des tination — no closer than on the day he embarked.

NEWS FROM THE CULTURE FRONT

Reel E state Deal ovie theaters in America have been consoli dated in the same fast-food fashion as banks, retail outlets and quick-stops. But in northwestern Vermont, the mom-and-pop movie mogul is making a comeback. Merrill Jarvis, who once controlled virtu ally all the screens in the Burlington area, is slowly reclaiming real estate from the Boston-based theater chain that has domi nated the local market for nearly a decade. Sunday night, on the eve of school vaca tion, Hoyts Nickelodeon ran its final cred its. “Our lease is up and were leaving,” is how one employee phrased it over the phone on Monday morning. His amended greeting — “Hoy, uh, Nickelodeon” — said it all. Or did it? The employee refused to give his name. Hoyts didn’t return phone calls. The company’s long-time manager at the Nickelodeon, Steve Parmer, was conve niently “on vacation.” Jarvis was silent on the subject of whether he’ll be calling the shots at the downtown theater, which is currently owned by Pizzagalli Properties. Even in his projecting prime, he never controlled the Nick. “Right now I have no comment,” his son Billy offered from Ethan Allen Cine mas, a.k.a. the cheap seats. “By early next week, we’ll have some news for you.” Is this what U.N. ChiefWeapons Inspector Hans Blix goes through on a daily basis? Veteran cinephile and Burlington College film prof Barry Snyder says the change had been in the works for about a year. “Merrill Jarvis is back in the picture big-time,” he says. “He’s out at Ethan Allen Cinemas. He’s got the new Taft Corners. And, of course, he’s reviving Merrill’s on Williston Road. He couldn’t stay away.” Is a local movie chain preferable to a national one? “I think it’s really good if it’s locally owned,” says Snyder. Hoyts had a “corporate mindset,” he says, that made the company unresponsive to local initiatives such as the Vermont International Film Festival. Snyder directs that annual event. “The local manager had virtually no power to make decisions. The company prescribed from afar what films would be showing.” Jarvis will be ruled by many of the same market forces, but Snyder holds out hope that he — or whoever ends up running the Nick — maintains it as the “art house” of the chain. But with a monopoly, Jarvis will be no more obligated to mix up the movie menu with local, offbeat or indie features than were his predecessors. “It depends entirely on how enlightened, or how committed to diversity, the person operating all the screens wants to be,” says Rick Winston of the Savoy in Montpelier. Either way, the movie that best captures this most-likelyMerrill moment is a mainstream one: The Empire Strikes Back. QHLCe n o t e s Despite all the recent press about protesting poets, Vermonters are buy ing more duct tape than volumes of verse. Local bookstores report no significant increase in poetry sales — “certainly not Walt Whitman,” a clerk at Borders in* Burlington exclaimed. Grace Paley stands

a better chance of spiking sales slightly. The diminutive Bronx-born poet/activist, who could barely see over the podium at a recent reading in Manchester, was the only bard who inspired a standing ovation. In a public ceremony next Wednesday in Montpelier, she’ll be appointed “state poet,” following in the footsteps of Robert Frost, Galway Kinnell, Louise Gluck and Ellen Bryant Voigt. Better known for her fiction, Paley writes mostly poetry now. “You can get it down faster,” she notes, “but that doesn’t mean you get it right. I have one five-line poem. Every time I look at it, I want to change it again.” . . . Writer’s block is the subject of a new musical work by Allen Shawn. And no wonder — the Bennington composer is married to writer Jamaica Kincaid. His father, William Shawn, was the long-time editor of The Netu Yorker. The Monterey Symphony Orchestra com missioned “And in the air these sounds...” to honor the centenary of John Steinbeck, and premiered it last year under the baton of Kate Tamarkin. The former music director of the Vermont Symphony Orchestra is giving a repeat performance of the vocal work at the Flynn in March. She notes, “I’m incredibly excited about the opportunity to perform with the VSO again and to share Allen Shawn’s work with my friends in Vermont.” . . .

Hatshepsut was a king, not a queen, Occaso points out, but other wise there are many conflicting stories about her reign. The Vermonter fictional ized the story so that a midget nephew overthrows her. It ain’t Aida. The music — which Occaso says sounds “kind of moody,” like Philip Glass — was written by her brother-in-law George Chave. “It started out as a joke,” she admits. Her sister thought composing an opera would help her husband get tenure in the music depart ment at the University of Texas at Arlington.

But 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.) Fannie once had vast NUMBERS of cockroaches in her kitchen.

She wondered what the Greeks or ROMANS did to get rid of roaches.

To do nothing would be a MARK of slovenliness. Unless she ACTS soon, the gossips will whisper that she is a dirty lady. Fannie's niece RUTH suggested they seal off the kitchen and build a new one.

the dearth of private land available along the waterfront, I doubt we’ll ever see another development of this type. Cool people have been drawn to live down here and Wendy is one of them. I swung through the parking lot, pulling as close to the entrance as possible. Above the front door is a sign that reads Arahmi. I had heard various translations. One resident told me it meant “communi ty.” Another defined it as “friends.” By chance one day I drove the visionary developer of the property, who told me Arahmi was an Abenaki word meaning “a place that I want to be.” Wendy paid the fare and opened the car door. The rush of air was bracing. “Whoa!” she exclaimed. “You got that right,” I replied. “How can I possibly leave all this?” Wendy asked with a wry smile. I grinned and said, “That reminds me of something this old guy once told me: 'We’ll fight ’til hell freezes over, and then we’ll fight on the ice.’ I can’t recall what it was in reference to, but it sounds good, doesn’t it?” “Inspirational, Jernigan.

BY CECIL ADAMS ALL WORTHWHILE HUMAN KNOWLEDGE

Initial repons filtering out of Siberia suggested that a mete orite was responsible. But details were so fragmentary, the site so distant and conditions in Russia so unsettled that the event wasn’t investigated until 1927, when Soviet scientist Leonid Kulik led an expedition to the blast zone, a vast region of scorched and flattened trees with their trunks all pointing . toward ground zero. Kulik was sure he would find a large meteoric body buried there but never did, despite repeated drilling. Fie never found an impact crater, either. In fact, aside from some dust-size bits of mineral called “spherules,” who$e presence may or may not be connected to the blast, no one has ever found a piece of the mass that exploded. In attempting to account for these anomalies, scientists have proposed a number of theories: • The blast occurred when the nuclear engine of a mart ian spaceship blew up.

While each previous New Deal release has been live (even 2001's self-titled "studio" album was created from concert tapes), the new disc will feature the band's first foray into studio composition. "We still aren't using any overdubs or samples," explains Kurtz, "but so far, everything we've recorded has been studio stuff. We are really working each track from the ground up, and

the studio opens up a far wider palette of sounds to work with. We are really excited to have it at our disposal." Technology aside, the core of The New Deal's sound has always been the interaction of the members live. Shearer's rib shaking beats send out waves of stuttering sound, while Kurtz lays down mechanical, funky licks and Shields intertwines playful melodies with psychedelic sonic trickery. When they settle into a solid groove, it's easy to imagine the group as a DJ,

spinning a living, breathing cycle of organic beats. "The marriage of seemingly disparate musical worlds is what generally leads to the next wave of music," Kurtz comments. "Our sound is a synthesis. Darren may be playing a straight house beat. I may be playing straight house. But Jamie is playing Journey-inspired prog notes. Our sound just becomes a product of the influences and limitations that the three of us have." It is just this sound that has led The New Deal from quiet gigs north of the border to club-packing dates in the States. "The sound of The New Deal is really established, and that makes me feel really good," Kurtz says contentedly. "In most cases the most difficult thing for a band to do is to establish an identity that is recognizable in five seconds." This Saturday, the band travels to Burlington to headline the annual Magic Hat Mardi Gras celebration with gigs on the Church Street Marketplace and at Higher Ground. "It's always fun to play a big party," Kurtz notes, "and Burlington has always been very good to us. Plus, it may not be the coldest anymore by the time we get there." ETHAN COVEY

review th is SCHOOL BUS, PAINLESS (Icebox Records, IB3-001 3-inch CD) School Bus' latest effort is the inaugural release of a 3-inch CD series from Burlington-based Icebox Records. Mastermind and multi-instrumentalist Jason Cooley, a.k.a. School Bus, has previ ously flirted with the possibilities of groove-based, sampleheavy electronica. On Painless, however, he sets aside the drum machine to craft an album of gorgeous, guitar-based drones. Although it clocks in at only 20 minutes, Cooley establishes a hypnotic rhythm through the gentle ebb and flow of ethereal hums and clicks. Sampled voices waver in and out as the brief tracks rise and fall, gelling together into a unified whole. Yet Painless is not mere bliss-out blur. Just as certain notes seem to bring waves of chill, a storm of static fuzz crackles through. Painless is a texturally thrilling document of modern drone, a satisfying journey indeed. ETHAN COVEY

T A L A , DANCES AND RITES (Saturn People Productions, CD)

STEVE KIERNAN, MAN OF GLASS (Self-released, CD) Steve Kiernan is certainly not the first person to play the acoustic guitar as if the strings were attached to his heart, but all 13 of the instrumental tunes on Man of Glass are the musical equivalent of an intimate connection. The vulnerability expressed in the new solo project's title is matched by the deli cate tone of Kiernan's 12-string guitar. Which, by the way, is a jumbo-bodied Breedlove. A seasoned journalist as well as musi cian, Kiernan provides informative liner notes about his instru ment and the tunings for each song — in case anyone wants to try them at home. And that would not be easy. From the jaunty original "Wasabi Special" to an 18th-century Turlough O'Carolan Irish lament to the solemn, "Kiernanized" version of "The Water is Wide," this guitarist is virtuosic. Agile fingers and a sensitive ear serve tunes that speak volumes without text. It's impossible to know what goes on in a composer's mind when he crafts a wordless tune, but Kiernan's playing aches with bittersweet pas sion in "Wishbone" and the more complicated "Woman of Stone, Man of Glass." His fingerwork shimmers with tenderness in "Old Country Home" and manages to be in two places at once in a solo variation of Duane Allman's classic "Little Martha." If you're looking for an album that conveys the emotional soundtrack of a deeply felt life, this is it.

When Plainfield trumpeter Brian Boyes finished his five-year tenure with viperHouse in 2000, he no doubt had experienced his fair share of low-pay, high-travel dance gigs with one of Vermont's premiere bands. Retaining the vipers' funk sensibility, he then formed an ensemble to play his original, and less commercially viable, compositions. With a rare combination of tough-minded pragmatism and creative artistry, Boyes had no illusions about making a living playing art music, and he refused to be limited musically by economic considerations. Armed with a teaching gig at the Cabot School that allowed him to keep body and soul together, Boyes was free to nurture his muse. Tala, the horn-heavy septet/octet heard on this disc, is the product of Boyes' musical vision. The fair-sized ensemble employs no chordal instrument but sports twin reeds and brass for unfet tered harmonic possibilities, along with a funky bass and fatback rhythm section. Boyes' compo sitions incorporate Indian classical rhythms and song cycles with spine-tingling jazz harmonies. The resulting music engages the listener intellectually as well as viscerally. Boyes is hesitant to call Tala's music jazz, though it does allow a judicious amount of solo space and some spontaneous conducting on the bandstand. The emphasis is on serving the com positions while riding those delicious grooves. "Tala" refers to the Indian classical-music term for rhythm, which in this case is cyclical rather than linear in conception. A feature of tala is the sub-division of pulse that articulates the cycles. Trap drummer Gabe Jarrett is particularly adept at these sizzling, unique "rhythms within rhythms." Bassist Rob Morse is masterful at keeping it all on the ground. Without piano or guitar in the picture, the Tala horns assist rhythmically by playing figures that might otherwise be assigned to a chordal instrument in the rhythm section. Boyes' sonic palette is rich and varied. In addition to the horn-dominated ensemble sound, pleasant surprises in the mix include West African balafon, Indian tabla and even some electronic seasoning from time to time. Shifts in feel vary from JB funk to electronica to Haitian 6/8 and even free-blowing collective improvisation. There's a lot of music on this disc, and the high cal iber of playing augurs a lot more where this came from — most of the players in Tala are involved in other projects as well. Dances and Rites is highly recommended for fans of creative new music. RICHARD MAYER

very philatelist knows that the first postage stamp was the British “penny black” released in 1840. “Cancelled: an international group exhibit of cancelled and postmarked art” could not have happened without it. But as the title o f the show at Burlington’s Flynn dog suggests, the invention of the postmark is equally important. The 1840 postmark was black until Sir Robert Hill, inventor of the stamp, surmised that a black postmark on a black stamp was not a good idea. He suggested that the color of either stamp or postmark should be red. Such a revelation! He was hailed as a genius, and the “penny red” stamp was released in 1841. Postal items have been getting more color ful ever since. This exhibition reveals just how

sender, post office, receiver and gallery. Scale, as determined by postal regulations, is basically consistent throughout the show. The element o f time is introduced with each postmark. Some of the items are primarily sculptural, while others are flat and frontally oriented. Signature styles in some of the pieces identify them as the work of a particular artist. Germanias Poker H and,” by Lilian Aye, is a startling image o f seven Third Reich-era postcards arranged like a hand of cards held by a black velvet glove. Old postcards and stamps are usually mundane relics of bygone vacations, but in this case Aye provides a chilling context. The most popular postage stamp used in the show is probably the Andy Warhol, with

Natalya Zahn’s untitled envelope has a lovely large rat printed over its front. The piece was sent from the Rhode Island School o f Design to East Calais. “N ot So Fresh Flowers,” by Gabrielle Dietzel, is a moldy, disintegrating bouquet o f unidentifiable flora in a clear plastic enve lope. Whatever it may have looked like when sent, the parcel now resembles a 10-m onthold bag o f asparagus in the bottom drawer of a refrigerator. It should probably not be opened without a respirator.

Roy Levin seem to bear most responsibility for the show, as senders or receivers o f much of the work. But this is not a traditional show of pieces framed and neatly hung on pristine walls. “Cancelled” is one long installation extend ing the length of the Flynndog space.

G ALE FARCE Space/s latest sacrifices credibility for surprise twists.

ow the mighty — well, the marketable anyway — have fallen. Not so long ago, it would have been difficult to imagine Kevin Spacey, Kate Winslet or director Alan Parker involved with any but the most charmed of movie projects. American Beauty, Titanic, The Commit ments — its a long way down to the lowbrow, button-pushing embarrass ment that is The Life o f David Gale. Spacey gives the least credible, most colorless performance of his career in the role of a college professor and anti death penalty activist whose life slips out of his hands as quickly as a bar of soap. O f course, the films creators have stacked the deck against him. As writ ten, his character has a drinking prob lem. His wife is conducting a preposter ous affair with some guy in Spain. And an undergraduate vixen has seduced him at a wild faculty bash and then publicly accused him of rape. Things go from bad to worse — and that includes the writing — as Gale’s wife returns to the States long enough to leave with his son, and the university asks him to vacate his post. In a cartoon of a downward spiral, the eminent author and academician is reduced in a single stroke to living in squalor. I know, I was supposed to feel bad for the poor shmuck, but it was Spacey whose lot I

bemoaned as I watched him, as Gale, walking the sleazy streets at night and babbling drunkenly about Plato. Please. The only bright spots left in his life are his high-ranking spot in an advocacy group called Deathwatch and his friend ship with fellow activist Laura Linney. So, of course, one gives him the boot and the other is revealed to be suffering from a fatal disease. At least until she’s found dead, naked, handcuffed and wearing a Hefty trash bag on her head. Do I need to tell you who’s convicted of her murder? Fast forward six years, and enter Winslet as an investigative reporter sent to interview Gale just days before he’s scheduled to die by lethal injection in a Texas prison. The doomed fellow tells the writer his story over a period of days and insists he’s innocent. Little by little, the young woman begins to believe him. Meanwhile, ominous though sense less things happen to Winslet. A myste rious cowboy in a pickup follows her everywhere. Someone breaks into her motel room and ties a videotape to the light cord hanging from the ceiling. On the tape: footage of Linney in her death throes. Do I need to tell you she doesn’t say boo to the police? Movie law requires that all stories about reporters interviewing soon-to-be

executed prisoners culminate in a thirdact race against the clock to bring justdiscovered evidence forward in time to save the unjustly condemned. So I’m not giving anything away. Winslet’s race is teased in the picture’s opening sequence. What I can’t tell you is what happens right after she makes it back to the jail. That’s because the movie has a Big Surprise Twist. And that’s about all it has. It certain ly doesn’t have anything of importance to say on the subject of the death penal ty. It’s far too contrived and implausible a house of cards. The movie also doesn’t have anything to offer in the goosebumps department. Attempts to gener ate an atmosphere of Yankee-getsmessed-with-by-scary-rednecks paranoia result in a strictly made-for-TV level of menace. And the film doesn’t have any thing but bad news for Spacey fans, anx ious for the actor to break a stinky streak that’s included duds Pay It Forward, The Big Kahuna, The Shipping News and K-Pax. The debate over capital punishment rages on. If The Life o f David Gale suc ceeds at anything, it’s at offering com mon ground to opposing camps. Almost everyone is sure to agree this picture is pretty much unpardonable. ®

he enigmatic Everlyn Sampi looked like a typical American teen in jeans and a sweatshirt at last Augusts Montreal World Film Festival. But she’s actually an Aboriginal actress who was in Quebec to promote Rabbit-Proof Fence, a true story from Down Under set in 1931. Directed by Philip Noyce, the historical drama opens this weekend at the Savoy Theater in Montpelier. Although new to the profession, Sampi gives a powerfully understated per formance as a resourceful adolescent named Molly, whose “half caste” status is anathema to Australia’s white govern ment. The official policy, which was not abolished until 1971, involved forcibly placing such children in residential schools that were strict and bleak enough to qualify as concentration camps. Few happily-ever-afters awaited the people who would come to be known as the Stolen Generations. The youngsters were indoctrinated in preparation for an insidious breeding program that regulat ed their choice of partners. The prevail ing theory was that if biracial individuals

married only other light-skinned natives, their descendants would eventually have no black physical characteristics whatso ever — a kind of slow genocide. Fathered by transient white laborers, 14-year-old Molly Craig, her younger sister Daisy (Tianna Sansbury) and their cousin Gracie (Laura Monaghan) live a hardscrab ble existence with the single mothers and grandmothers of the “Jigalong Mob.” These matriarchal nomads wage a brave but futile resistance against the legalized kidnapping of their kin. Sent 1500 miles away to a rural Christian orphanage, Molly, Daisy and Gracie are installed in a drab dormitory with dozens of fellow captives. They’re required to sleep on cots, eat unfamiliar food, use a bucket for a toilet, train for factory work or domestic servitude, and abandon their own language. “We don’t use that jabber here,” a somber nun tells them as a means of enforcing the English-oniy rule. The massive dislocation is micro-managed by Mr. Neville, the appointed Chief Protector of the regional indigenous pop ulation who talks of solving “the colored problem.” As played by Kenneth Branagh, he exemplifies the bigoted banality of the ruling class. And his mat

ter-of-fact rectitude is a much more inter esting take than garden-variety villainy. Dubbed “Mr. Devil,” this efficient bureaucrat is simply oblivious to the inhumanity of the country’s shameful experiment in social engineering. This is only a decade before the Nazis’ ethnic cleansing program in Europe. W hen Molly leads Daisy and Gracie in a daring escape, the trio has no choice but to make the 1500-mile trip home on foot. Their navigational guideline is the rabbit-proof fence of the title — a barrier that traverses the island continent to pro tect farmland from hungry bunnies. W ithout food or water, the waifs live by their wits during a nine-week journey through the rugged Outback. The authorities pursue them and dispatch a wily Aboriginal tracker (David Gulpilil of Walkabout fame) who’s has mixed emo tions about his task. During this sus pense-filled chase, Peter Gabriel’s mourn ful score seems to echo across the forbid ding landscape, which is beautifully cap tured by cinematographer Christopher Doyle. Michael Caine recently earned an Oscar nomination for his role in Noyces other current release, The Quiet American, which was shot in Vietnam. The Aussie filmmaker returns to his homeland in Rabbit-Proof Fence after many years of high-profile Hollywood projects such as Patriot Games and Clear and Present Danger. This latest action-adventure, adapted from a book by the real-life Molly Craig’s daughter, replaces explosions and car crashes with the indomitable spirit of three little girls. • Ordinary Sinner, which opened in New York City last week, was shot on the Green Mountain College campus in southern Vermont during the summer of 2000. Students worked as extras in the indie film, which had a meager budget of $500,000. The New York director, John Henry Davis, is a cinema studies profes sor at LaGuardia Community College in Queens. The picture concerns a hetero sexual romantic triangle that’s complicat ed by a subplot about gay-bashing. It won two top prizes at the 2002 Slamdunk Festival in Utah, but has received generally negative reviews from Big Apple critics.

The Tooth Fairy booked a gig at the Burlington Community Health Center last week to coach kids on the merits of preventative dentistry. The fairy — a.k.a. dental assistant Bianca Nolin — was in full regalia, wearing a pale blue gown, silver pumps, a sparkling tiara and translucent white wings. In one hand she held a beribboned wand topped with what looked like a dented heart. Apologetically, she explained, "It's meant to be a tooth." The kids were slow to show up. After two long hours, punctuated by the occasional photo-op with a dentist or administrator, the Tooth Fairy took the ini tiative: The mountain would go to Mohammed. Armed with 200-some give-away oral hygiene kits — plastic

festive scrubs — demonstrated brushing and flossing techniques, kids volunteered what they knew about mouth health. Candy is bad for your teeth. Milk is good. Plaque is bumpy and usually white, but it can be yellow or occasionally even brown. I had a question for the fairy: Why hadn't I been allowed to take home my excavated wisdom teeth? I've had 12 teeth pulled, and usually I got to keep them. Plus, there's a premium on extracted teeth: I always got $1 per tooth after a visit to the dentist, whereas teeth that dropped on their own earned a measly 25 cents. The Tooth Fairy explained that adult teeth are considered biohazards; baby teeth, which lack a root and other gunk, are not. But if you ask, surgeons will release your teeth after a 24-hour waiting period. I was depressed as I left the center. I could have gotten my wisdom teeth back after all. I figured the Tooth Fairy owed me $4. — Karen Shimizu

With a female focus and live performances, Estrogen T e st is dearly not your average film festival. Now in its third year, the threeday cinem atic "celebration of women and girls" shines a worldly ligh t on issues ranging from reproductive rights and gender roles to body im age and lesbianism . The New York Times called Iranian opener The Day I Became a Woman "an asto nish in g directorial debut," while Mexican closer Sehorita Extravida won the Grand Jury prize at last year's Sundance Film Festival. Poets, speakers, m usicians and dancers add further drama to the X-chrom osom ed extravaganza.

"An athlete? Me?! Athletic Is not a word that was ever used to describe me. I have struggled with weight all my life and 2 years ago I was approaching middle age overweight and out of shape. The Shelburne Athletic Club has changed all that. Sure it was a lot of hard work on my part, but without the support, encouragement and friendship of the SAC staff and members, I could not have achieved my goals. I am literally half the person I used to be, enjoying activities I never considered before. I'm healthy, S HELBURNE happy and having the time of my life! A 100 Km bike ride? Where do I sign up?

You’ve got something smeared on your arm, Ted. Oh my god...is that a tattoo?

Sure is, Honey. Got it down at the “Campus Barbarian” next to the Shopwood Mali’s food court for forty dollars.

I’m a little upset with you, Ted. It would’ve been nice if you had discussed it with me before you got a bird tattooed on your arm.

Uh, don’t do that, Ted. It would detract from the understated elegance of your gorgeous little bat. *

It isn’t a bird, Hon.It’s a vampire bat.

A VAMPIRE BAT...?!!

Settle down, Dear...you’ll barely even notice it once I’ve got the dragons versus zombie warriors scene running down to my wrist.

Glad you like it, Sweetheart. You haven’t even commented on my clip-on nipple ring.

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Is hope overrated? W hile it can provide consolation when life is painfully confounding, the Sufi poet Rumi suggested that it may actually get in the way o f finding a cure. “W hen water gets caught in habitual whirlpools,” he wrote, “dig a way out through the bottom to the ocean. There is a secret medicine given only to those who hurt so hard they can not hope. The hopers would feel slighted if they knew.” W hat if Rumi was right, Aries? Speaking on behalf o f the astrological omens, I advise you to let hopelessness be your guide in the coming week.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-M ay 20): Some astrologers theorize that there’s an undiscovered planet called Vulcan, whose orbit is inside that of Mercury. Because it’s so close to the sun’s oblit erating blaze, scientists haven’t detect ed it. In ancient Roman mythology, Vulcan was the god of metal-working. From his forge beneath the Earth, he made tools for himself and the other gods. His creations were renowned for both their usefulness and beauty. The astrologers who propose the existence o f the planet Vulcan say it’s the ruler of Taurus. I bring this to your atten tion because it so-happens that you’re poised to channel its influence with maximum strength in the coming weeks. Try this meditation: Visualize yourself wielding controlled fire to forge beautiful and useful things for you and your powerful allies.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): Each year the science magazine, Annals o f Improbable Research, awards “Ig Nobel Prizes” to imaginative eccentrics. A prize in chemistry was once given to researchers who discov ered that rom antic infatuation is bio chemically indistinguishable from obsessive-compulsive disorder; other

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): T he most dangerous frame o f m ind for you to inhabit in the next six weeks — the state o f awareness that would be most harmful to your long-term interests — would be utter certainty. You sim ply cannot afford to be a know-it-all expert who’s fixated on a set o f seem ingly foolproof theories. O n the other hand, Leo, if you’re willing to ques tion everything you think you know, robust health and emotional wealth will surely be yours. Here’s a ritual to set the mood: Put angel food cake and devil’s food cake on a plate, then

\ |

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): Do you have a lucky number? Many people do. Some decide on theirs by choosing a num ber that figured prom inently in one o f their life’s turning points. Others arrive at it by adding the digits o f their birth date or by taking the numerological value o f their name. So-called “master numbers” like 2 2 , 33, and 55 are favorites, too. Personally, I have two special numbers: 23 zillion and 3.1415926, the value o f pi. I hope this whets your imagination, Cancerian. Your fortunes are in the process o f changing, and it would be a good time to pick a new lucky number. If I were you, I’d also seek out a new power animal, initiation name, and talismanic symbol.

take five bites o f each while intoning the affirmation, “I am hungry for the kaleidoscopic, chameleon-like, unimaginable tru th .”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): My Aquarian and Sagittarian friends are the best laughers I know. By that I mean that they laugh longer and more frequently than most. They also tend to chortle at ironies that others take way too seriously. Best o f all, their laughs are works o f art: sudden, explosive, wild and uncanny. I m en tion this, Virgo, because I believe you’re entering a phase when you’ll have the potential to m utate into an Aquarian- or Sagittarian-style laugher. Please take full advantage o f this hilarious opportunity. Explore the untapped depths o f your sense o f humor. Give your laughter the chance to grow dramatically in its power to heal both you and everyone who is sprayed with the saliva flung out dur ing your paroxysms o f primal amuse ment.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-O ct. 2 2 ): Last year the Boston Globe ran 901 corrections o f previously published information. In other words, it aver aged 17.3 acknowledged mistakes per week. The Chicago Tribune's total was 658, or 12.7 errors per week. Even though your blooper rate will be higher than usual in the coming days, it won’t come anywhere near theirs. There’ll be no excuse for berating yourself or succum bing to massive outbreaks o f guilt, then, will there? Even at your most flub-prone, you’ll still be more perfect than two o f America’s most well-respected news papers. I suggest, though, that to t , minimize flak from insensitive critics, you borrow the Globe's or Tribune's approach. You can get away with a lot if “I confess” or “I’m sorry” is always on the tip o f your tongue.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Arunothai Sriaran is Thailand’s new “Miss D runk.” She won the title in a contest after gulping down too much wine and navigating her way through an obstacle course while wearing a heavy silk dress and golden headgear. In the insouciant spirit of this wicked fun, and in accordance with your current astrological omens, I hereby name you “Ms. (or Mr.) D runk-on-Life.” Your carefree and mischievously benevolent reign will last for either three weeks or until you stop learning new tricks about the art o f being intelligently wild, whichever comes last.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 2 2 -Dec. 2 1 ): You’re progressing nicely

in your efforts to master life’s most complicated skills. For instance, you’re making better and better mis takes all the time. You’re getting pret ty good at being three places at once, too; and with every passing m onth you know more about using your fears to motivate you so they won’t paralyze you. W hat you’d benefit from most right now, though, is a refresher course in the simplest fun damentals. For starters, you still have a lot to learn about how to sleep and eat. And it’s not too far-fetched to say that you could use some breathing lessons. For that matter, Sagittarius, you’re not exactly a Ph.D . in the art o f happiness. I suggest you sniff around to see if there are any crafty elders offering workshops on how to regard everything that comes your way as a blessing.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): Forget about the 900-pound gorilla problem, Capricorn; you’ve got it pretty much neutralized for now. I suggest you turn your atten tion to the three-gram hum m ingbird

dilemma: you know, the beautiful lit tle bundle o f nonstop energy darting around like neon fire. Please keep in m ind that the brave forcefulness you sum m oned to deal with the gorilla may not be o f much help in this fresh challenge. A suggestion: Try tuning in to your own inner humm ingbird.

AQUARIUS (Jan.. 20-Feb. 18): “T he elephant never gets tired of carrying its tusks,” says a proverb of the Vai tribe in Liberia. I suggest you make that a central meditation in the coming week, Aquarius. Maybe it’ll inspire you to intensify your com m it m ent to the duties that make you so unique and beautiful. It’s the perfect astrological m om ent to do that. Do not, however, interpret the proverb to mean you should keep hauling around toxic emotions that you gen erated while neurotically slaving away at obnoxious duties in the distant past. They not only weaken and ugli fy you, they’re also unnecessary. D um p them.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): The average Pisces catches 147 colds in a lifetime, endures a serious case of hurt feelings three times a m onth, and fantasizes about the end o f the world once every 6.2 days. I predict, however, that you will experience none o f the above during the coming weeks. T hat’s because you’re slipping into a grace period that may shock you with its ease, beauty and abun dance. It will be a time when your innocence regenerates and your wis dom freshens; a seed time when your determ ination to feel good will trum p your habitual tendencies to expect the worst; a time o f awakening when your perceptions will deepen and expand even as the world is created anew right in front o f your eyes.

Dear Lola, My boyfriend and I have a pretty healthy sex life, which sometimes includes watching porn together. After watching a woman pleasuring a man with a strap-on, I have become completely obsessed with trying it myself. My partner is a good lover, but a little less adventurous than I am. Any suggestions about how I can convince him to give it a try? Randy in Rutland Dear Randy, Let him ease into it slowly. Pick one up and bring it out some time, not in a sexual context. Give it a name. Let him handle it. Treat it like a game. Make some jokes. Let him play with it. Keep it low-pressure. Let him watch you using it on yourself, then let him take a turn using it on you. Put it on and dance around; let him see how cute it looks on you, and how much fun you have wearing it. Let him feel your fingers walking where you want to take your toy. Get some nice lubri cant to help ease him into the idea. And if after all that he's still closed to the notion, don't push it. Love, Lola
