q u e s t io

g o wrong? When we invented cars.

— Erik Brown Energy analyst Burlington I think we’ve iet technol ogy take over our lives. W e’re always trying to be more efficient, and if you

SPITEFUL CRITICISM Marc Awodey’s “critique” of Emily Bissell Laird [“The Wood Is Good,” May 12] was not what I would call a criticism, but more outright ranting and raving. It would appear from Mr. Awodey’s comments, Ms. Laird is the first artist to deviate from classical painting. But what is most useless about his comments is his senseless prattle and out-and-out hate that he exhibits. And I must say, I am very disappointed in Seven Days for printing Mr. Awodey’s unnecessari ly spiteful words about Laird’s work. Artists — all artists — work very hard at what they do, and to show one’s work at all is more than nine-tenths of the artists in the world (or Vermont) are able to do, much less make a go of it or a liv ing... — Randy Crosby Jericho

really think about it, we’re less efficient than we used to be and we’re less nice people.

— Yves Bradley Co-owner, The Body Shop Burlington With expecting everyone else to make us happy.

— Rebecca Kotula Vitamin consultant, Healthy Living South Burlington

ART OBSERVATIONS After Marc Awodey ripped Emily Bissell Laird a new orifice or two in his rabid, pit-bull critique of her show of paintings at the Doll-Anstadt Gallery [“The Wood Is Good,” May 12], I guess it’s safe to say he didn’t care much for her work. I like Marc’s column, and I attended the opening of the show at D-A during the first Friday art trolley...and would appreciate the opportunity to add a couple of observations to the discussion. To me, Emily’s paintings look to have

a strong relationship to her inner process. They evoke feelings of connectedness, home, hearth, spir it, nature and love. I feel that we are enriched, in our community, by Ms. Laird’s contribution, by her commitment to reaching down and in and bringing forth the imagery in her paintings, and by her willingness to get out there and show her work. Very few among us are fortu nate enough to be profoundly gift ed artists, but that doesn’t mean we shouldn’t have the confidence to express ourselves, to nurture our creativity, and to try and have the courage to find a voice for that which is uniquely our own. So, while I appreciate Marc Awodey for his incisive reviews, I also want to affirm Ms. Laird for her good work, and encourage her to keep striving. — Alan Goldfarb Burlington MOVIE REVIEWS AT LOW POINT Rick Kisonak’s movie “reviews” have sunk to such a low point that I must protest. His attempt at hipspite towards The Phantom Menace [May 28] was as good an example as any to make Seven Days readers ask for someone who might either a) be informative, b) enjoy the occasional movie, or c) be able to stay awake through the entire showing. It is obvious after reading years

of reviews by Kisonak that he has no training in the field of criti cism, film or otherwise. His carp ing minute points in an attempt to appear observant is almost novel next to the obvious biases he car ries into each and every movie he reviews. How can a critic have such a big, obvious chip on his shoulder and expect to keep his critical tools sharp? If there are any critical skills to sharpen. Is his falling asleep an attempt at Gonzo journalism? If so, his rote repetition of a plot that does not interest him does even less for his readers than his failing to dissect the film. This retelling, often a sign that the reviewer has no train ing in either writing or criticism, is a Kisonak trademark. Does he even like movies? After asking friends, only one could remember a movie he enjoyed (The X-Files), and that came with his making it clear it was a guilty plea sure and not a sign of the movie’s own skills. Someone who hates Hollywood, as he seems to, should either a) review independent films, or b) get a new line of work. Movies seem to offer him only a chance to act smug... Besides scrapping Kisonak, Seven Days should be focusing more on independent films. Does Vermont really need yet another glimpse at another mega-feature which will be at the Ethan Allen by the time any weekly can get its review on the street? As you do with music, dance, theater, etc.,

your movie reviewer should take a peek at the independents coming around. Not just the Vermont films (which you do a good job on), but anything not Hollywood. Get in your car and go to the Savoy, or at least only visit the Nickelodeon. Perhaps scrap the review section entirely, because of the time issue, and just print them when they come out on video. Readers deserve to either be informed or entertained by your writers, and preferably both. In Kisonak, we get neither. Perhaps it is time for Seven Days to scrap movie reviews altogether; just post the times and incapsulated sum maries of movies now playing — sans stars and critical complaining. Here’s a suggestion for Kisonak to keep awake: Get the supersize “best value” bottomless soda. If the caffeine doesn’t keep you awake, going to the bathroom will. — Tom Darling Cambridge L e tte rs P o lic y : SEVEN DAYS wants your rants and raves, in 2 5 0 words or less.

| Beauty’s Only Skin Deep Japanese cosmetics compa nies are turning young mens inferiority complexes into a business, according to The Wall Street Journal, which reported that the country’s defini tion of the well-groomed young man is changing dra matically. The most noticeable trend is perfectly plucked eye brows. Japans biggest cosmet ics maker, Shiseido Corp., now sells more than 1 million a year o f its Geraid for Men Eyebrow Design Kit, which contains scissors, tweezers, eye brow brush, eye pencil and an instruction booklet showing proper plucking styles. Noting a similar interest in face care, Shiseido also introduced a dark-brown foundation make up called Geraid for Men Design Bronze, which comes in a compact case with a mir ror. • In China, one trend among young people seeking to Westernize their features is cosmetic surgery to enlarge their noses. “If I have a bigger nose, I think I will find a wife,” Wen Biao, 26, told The Washington Post. “I already have a good job.”

Costly Celebration Derek Anderson, a guard for the NBA Cleveland Cavaliers, missed the last

two weeks of the season when he injured himself during a celebratory chest bump with a teammate.

Doctor, Doctor Following an increase in surgical mistakes where doc tors amputated the wrong limb or removed the wrong kidney, the National Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons urged its 17,000 members to mark with a pen or felt-tip marker the spot to be cut to avoid what doctors call “wrong-site surgery.” From 1985 to 1995, the Physicians Insurers Association of America count ed 225 claims for wrong-site surgery, most notably by Willie King, who was awarded $1.2 million after a Tampa, Florida, surgeon amputated the wrong foot. Even so, some of the nations most prestigious hos pitals don’t make marking patients mandatory, because some hospital officials said they fear adding to patients’ stress by pointing out the pos sibility of error.

• About 15,000 hospital patients die each year because breathing machines in inten sive care units are set to deliver twice as large a breath as patients need, according to researchers. Until the study was undertaken, setting the breathing apparatus to deliver twice the volume of air as a normal breath was thought necessary to prevent patients’ lungs from collapsing. The study found that instead of benefiting the patients, the extra air was stretching the lungs of people unable to take the strain. A simple change in ventilator settings could solve the problem, said Dr. Michael Matthay, a senior scientist at the University of California at San Francisco’s Cardiovascular Research Institute, noting, “It takes about 10 or 15 seconds to do it.” • A kidney transplant at Westchester Medical Center in Valhalla, New York, was delayed for 90 minutes when the organ intended to be donated couldn’t be found. It was finally located in the trash. Hospital spokesperson Carin Grossman explained that the organ was stored on ice in an operating room, but when the operating room was cleaned, the container “was thought to be simply an empty corrugated box and therefore placed in the recycling receptacle for clean cardboard,” even though it was clearly labeled “something like

‘Organ for Transplant.’” After the kidney was located, it was successfully implanted in the 67-year-old patient, but had to be removed two days later because it was not working properly. The patient was returned to dialysis treatment, and his daughter, Gloria Kocal, said she didn’t know if he would want to undergo another transplant operation “after all he went through.”

Pay Attention Scheduled to introduce Maryland Gov. Parris Glendening as the main speak er at a public event in April, state Transportation Secretary John Porcari pulled a speech from a folder. “Thank you, John, for that introduction,” he began, then read the whole of the governor’s address. After Glendening was faced with the challenge of ad-libbing a whole new speech, his office issued orders that, from now on, “the governor’s remarks, and only the governor’s remarks, are to be printed on canary yellow paper.”

Comeback Kids The U.S. M int announced it would make another batch of Susan B. Anthony dollars. The government struck 857 million of the coins between 1979 and 1981, but found itself stuck with 550 million of them when people refused to use them, complaining they

too closely resembled a quar ter. Since then, however, they have been used mostly in vending machines and sub ways, where heavy demand has nearly exhausted the supply. • StarKist Seafood said it has revived Charlie the Tuna after a 10-year layoff to appear in ads for StarKist’s Solid White Albacore tuna. The animated fish, which first appeared in 1961, won popularity for try ing to attract StarKist’s atten tion by demonstrating good taste, only to be turned down with the refrain “Sorry, Charlie, StarKist doesn’t want tuna with good taste, StarKist wants tuna that taste good.”

People? Who Needs People? The Chicago W hite Sox baseball team announced it no longer needed an actual person to scout opponents in advance. Instead, the team will rely on videotapes of televised games.

For Anyone’s Eyes Newsweek magazine report ed that when John Deutch stepped down as director of the Central Intelligence Agency in December 1996, CIA technicians found 31 secret files in the unsecured personal computer at his home. The CIA turned the case over to the Justice Department, which spent a year investigating before decid ing not to file charges. ®

Cannes Living reel-to-reel on the French Riviera

By Kenneth Peck n La Croisette, the wide boulevard between the hotels and the prome nade along the Mediterranean in downtown Cannes, Austin Powers’ new psychedelic Shagmobile sits in front of a bank of TV screens, which blare in all directions a promo tional trailer for the new Mike Myers film: “It’s Cannes, baby!” Indeed. Cannes — home of the world’s most famous film festival — is as distinct from the surrounding quaint French countryside as can be imagined. Women walk around in evening gowns at 11 a.m. Fire eaters risk third-degree burns along the promenade. There are approximately nine cell phones for every 10 people. Would-be starlets fondle themselves for tuxedoed Italian photographers. Making the scene are countless stars.. .and Joe Bookchin and me. It was a fortuitous phone conversation between Joe — director of film and video pro duction at Burlington College — and Slamdunk Independent Film Festival director Cabot Orton that led to the screening of seven quirky Vermont inde pendent films in the course of the prestigious film festival. Okay, five films, plus one Computer Graphic Imaging animation and one David Giancola trailer. This while Phantom Menace opened back home. The plot summary:

Monday. Roger Ebert and Harvey Weinstein are dis cussing the impact of the “New Technology” on the future of filmmaking. Marvin Hamlisch passes us wearing a tuxedo, sweating in the Mediterranean sun. Joe and I have dinner with the West Coast editor of Mademoiselle magazine — gen erous platters of three kinds of oysters, coquilles, shrimp, escar got, langostine and crab legs. She wonders why she’s there — her magazine’s readers are only interested in who Ben Affleck’s new girlfriend is. Her favorite movie so far? Werner Herzog’s documentary, Mein Liebster Feind {My Intimate Enemy), about the director’s love-hate relationship with the late German actor Klaus Kinski.

At the next table, 10 Chinese film folk are joined by the actress Gong Li, in town for the premiere of Chen Kaige’s The Emperor and the Assassin.

We wait in line to obtain official festival passes. I’m officially registered as a rep resentative of the Vermont International Film Foundation. I set out to secure tickets to the Tim Robbins’ premiere of The Cradle Will Rock. Colchester resident Allan Nicholls was the executive producer, first assis tant director and an actor in the film. Joe dutifully focuses on getting the Vermont films scheduled for their screening tomorrow. We’re handed passes to screenings of The Girl Next Door (“from housewife to porn star!”) and Soundman. Sean Connery is rumored to be somewhere in the building.. .It’s an unforgettable experience to walk up the red carpeted steps and into the postmodern Palais du Festival. The main theater must have over a thousand plush seats. Sofia Coppola walks past, in town for the pre miere of her directoral debut, The Virgin Suicides. The Robbins film is wonderful — “a tapestry of 1930s New York where artists strive for freedom of expression”...Cabot meets us for dinner at a chi-chi restau rant featuring waitresses in metallic Barbarella-style bathing suits, matching jewelry and moussed-back hair__Hours later, Cabot is off schmoozing. Joe and I are drinking cham pagne and eating crepes with a Washington Post writer. There is simply too much to take in. Mel Gibson, we hear, has been spotted. Thousands of ogling tourists wonder if that’s Catherine Deneuve in a car stopped at the traffic light. Yachts the size of Rhode Island sit offshore, their lights glowing softly. Wednesday. We show the Vermont films, with Cabot’s

assistance, in the Kodak Pavilion next to the Palais. They are The Apartment, by Bill Simmon; The Whitehouse, by John Douglas; Grieving, by Michael Fisher; an Icebreaker trailer by David Giancola; Alone, by Rob Koier and Josh Joy; Bathroom Talk, by Arthur Adams; and Les Lames Invincible aux Monts Verts ( The Invincible Swords to the Green Mountains), by Kyle Fiske, Jon Nuquist, Adam Walker and Carl Quesnel. Douglas’ CGI animation draws the strongest response from the audience and is shown again. Some journalist coins the phrase le nouveau noir de Vermont in response to the dark moods in the bulk of the works. People laugh at Les Lames bad French and cheesy English subtitles. Thursday. Slamdunk has its big day, screening its two strongest independent films, Zachariah Farted — “a thinker’s road movie” — and Bingo — “a racy urban myth translated into an outrageous story.” I decide to pass and take the train back to Paris for an extra day....Near the Sorbonne, I buy my son a Star Wars light sabre.

The International Herald Tribune features an interview with Vanessa Redgrave about the Robbins film ....In Newark, U.S. Customs stops me for the light sabre. “This is a weapon,” they inform me gravely. I show them that it’s just a child’s toy, pointing out the picture of a boy on the box. The writing is in French — La Guerre des Etoiles. I suspect the customs officer wants it for his own kid. I have to take it out of the box and dismantle it to prove it has no hidden nuclear device inside.

C R O S S forcing people to question the status quo and at stirring things up. There aren’t many Will Millers left on college campuses — or anywhere else in the United States, for that matter. Most ’60s-generation leftists have long since succumbed to a middle-age mellowness marked by less fiery political views and confrontational tactics. For these once-fervent believers in various types of utopias, certitude has given way to tolerance for differ ing ideas. Incremental change achieved through compromise now seems a likelier means of improving the world than does the pursuit of perfection via rev olution. None of that applies to Will Miller. The 58-year-old firebrand is as militant and as undeviating in his beliefs today as he was in 1969 when he arrived at UVM. Though he’s now white-haired and wrinkled, Miller professes the Marxist faith with all the zeal of a novitiate. He vents vin tage rhetoric — “All Power to the People!” reads one of the manifestos on his Web site — and his office in UVM’s Philosophy Department looks

an amount smaller than the cur rent starting salary at UVM. His present wage reflects a $5000 raise awarded a couple of years ago, which, Miller believes, was intended to undercut a grievance procedure he initiated against the university. Miller believes he’s been treated unfairly by UVM for much of his 30-year career there, suggesting that his radicalism and attempts to unionize faculty may have prompted the admin istration to punish him. That’s not at all the case, responds Enrique Corredera, a UVM spokesman. “Compen sation decisions affecting employees are made on the basis of availability of resources from year to year. Performance of employees is also taken into account,” he says. “But never are these decisions made on the basis of employees’ political views or their level of political activism.” Miller jokes about his lowestrung status, but he can’t fully conceal his bitterness. “The administration freed me of all constraints of career anxiety,” he says with a wry smile, “by destroying my career at its beginning.”

ceived betrayals by former allies — most recently Bernie Sanders. In a well-publicized and potentially historic protest, Miller and about a dozen stu dents were arrested last month in Sanders’ Burlington office as they denounced the congress man’s support for NATO’s air war against Yugoslavia. Speaking “on behalf of the anarcho-socialist-feminist and antiracist left in Vermont,” Miller issued a state ment during the sit-in denounc ing Sanders as an “imperialist” who has sold out to the Democratic Party. Many left-wing activists share Miller’s opposition to NATO’s increasingly careless campaign in Kosovo, and along with him, will gather at a national protest this weekend in Washington. Here in Vermont, misgivings over Sanders’ position have quietly rippled through Progressive ranks. Miller, once a Sanderista himself, could be regarded as the leader of a local leftist uprising against an outsider-turned-establishmentarian. But that’s probably not how this piece of political theater will play out. “Will has a talent for alienat ing at least as many people as he

inspires,” observes one veteran of the Burlington peace movement. “He’s dogmatic, paranoid and disastrous as an organizer. He splits many of the groups he works in, and he’s built absolute ly nothing.” While Miller has plenty of

detractors on the Vermont left, most will not express their views about him for attribution — the size of Burlington makes that difficult. Some are worried about their own delicate political relationships, which, they recog nize, often involve people who respect and admire Miller. A few of his strongest critics, though, acknowledge Miller’s tenacity and willingness to take risks for the cause he believes in. “He’s dogged as well as dogmat ic,” says a leading Progressive. Miller also seems to have maintained an enthusiasm for teaching at a point in a career when many profs have shifted into cruise control. He gets favorable ratings for his class room performance from most students, as well as from at least a few colleagues who are put off by Miller’s extracurricular activi ties. Enrollment in his classes is always at maximum capacity, Miller says. Although he has no children of his own — Miller opted for a vasectomy at a rela tively young age because “there are enough people in the world already” — he relates well to young people. “Will completely opened my eyes to a lot of issues I didn’t

”

students decide what subject matter they want to learn about. “I give him a solid “A” as a teacher,” adds Barnard. Miller regularly engages with students in settings other than the classroom. He has long served as faculty advisor to the alternative campus newspaper, The Gadfly, and recently has been involved in a local Balkans peace group that includes sever al high school students as well as UVM undergrads. Nick Vargelis, a freshman member of that group, concedes that outsiders often view it as “The Will Miller Show.” But the quick-tongued professor in fact encourages others to speak up and “come to their own con clusions,” Vargelis says. He notes that “Will was one of the first to recognize at a recent meeting that the discussion was being taken over by adults.” Similarly, the outspoken prof was one of three Vermonters who signed on to a full-page ad in The New York Times calling for an end to sanctions against Iraq. Describing Miller as “an amazing person,” Vargelis adds that students concerned about the Yugoslavia war “had a lot of

I PROTEST. THEREFORE trouble finding any other faculty member even willing to speak about this issue.” Sandy Baird, a feminist attor ney in Burlington, notes that “whenever I see Will, he’s sur rounded by young people.” While saluting Miller’s “positive influence,” Baird delineates her disagreements with his politics. “Like many Marxists,” she says, “he does believe in it with an almost religious kind of faith. But he’s certainly decided on his beliefs in a rational way.” Baird also sees Miller as “more consis tent than doctrinaire.” Indeed, none of the failures of socialism over the past 30 years has caused Miller to aban don, or even adjust, his ideology. The crumbling of the Soviet bloc is a case of good riddance, in his estimation, since “the col lapse of neo-Stalinist bureaucra cies in Eastern Europe doesn’t impact at all on the viability of socialism.” Besides, in his world view Cuba still burns beguilingly as a Red beacon. “A lot of what constitutes the so-called deformities of socialism is the result of encirclement and subversion by U.S. imperialism,” Miller explains. And because it must police a “corporate-con trolled global empire,” the U.S. is inherently incapable of acting abroad in a humanitarian man ner, according to Millers analy sis. The attack on Yugoslavia is not intended to save Kosovars but to add another link in the NATO chain encircling Russia. Similarly, the U.S. govern ment would never enforce an anti-sweatshop law that Sanders helped enact, Miller maintains. The congressman was duplici tous, not naive, in sponsoring

such a reform, because “Bernie knew the capitalist state would n’t impede the ability of the empire to exploit cheap labor abroad.” Miller’s analysis of Sanders’ actions is way off base, maintain the congressman’s strongest sup porters. “Bernie is a man of integrity whose actions are guid ed by conscience and principle,” says Jane Sanders, the lawmaker’s wife and official staff spokesper son. “Anyone who ascribes other motivations to him clearly does not know the man.” ow does Will Miller man age to sustain his ideologi cal ardor? Does he ever experience any self-doubts? “I like to think I’m my own most consistent critic,” he replies, then interjects in his rapid-fire speak ing style, “but it does seem to me that U.S. policy has been to deter any real democracy in the world for the past 40 years.” He has examined his own life, the philosopher appropriately adds, and suggests he wouldn’t like being Will Miller if he weren’t out there. It can be lonely out there, however. Several of Miller’s col leagues — also unwilling to speak on the record — describe him as an isolated figure within the UVM professoriat. Miller himself readily admits that “some faculty cross the street when they see me coming.” He attributes their avoidance partly to prissy distaste for his in-your-face tactics. Publishing the complete roster of faculty salaries on his Web site (www.uvm.edu/-wmiller) partic ularly rankled some profs, Miller observes, even though the same information had been available in

the UVM library’s reserve section. The faculty is, in any event, “clinically depressed,” in Miller’s diagnosis, owing to their “having been through so many battles and having gotten so little accomplished.” Ellen David-Friedman, a longtime organizer for the Vermont chapter of the National Education Association, worked with Miller on a couple of those unsuccessful attempts to union ize the academy on the hill. In her view, Miller excels at articu lating the issues but lacks the finesse needed to win over doubters. “While I admire in an acade mic intellectual fervor and convic tion,” David-Friedman reflects, “in an organizer that’s not enough. You also need the ability to work well collectively, to par ticipate in a flexible way to build group consensus and strategy.” Some of his colleagues speak admiringly of Miller’s efforts to secure a better contract for UVM faculty. Sid Poger of the English department, for exam ple, praises Millers persistence, and agrees with the suggestion that the rebel professor has been treated unfairly by the UVM hierarchy. Poger doubts that Miller has been blacklisted for political reasons, but he also dis misses the philosophy depart ment’s claim that Millers low pay reflects a failure to publish sufficiently in the appropriate scholarly journals. “That’s a cover,” Poger asserts. “I haven’t seen evidence that would confirm the hypothesis that Will’s low salary is due to his political activities, says Derk Pereboom, chair for the last two years of the UVM philosophy

department. He refers to Miller as “very dynamic” in his teach ing. Pereboom does confirm, however, that Miller hasn’t pub lished enough in the right places. While he gets high marks for teaching, Miller apparently gets a failing grade for publica tion, upon which 45 percent of his salary is based. His pariah status notwith standing, Miller’s very presence on the faculty constitutes some thing of a personal triumph. He has survived what he describes as a round of political firings with in the philosophy department. Having helped build its mem bership from five professors to 12 in the early ’70s, he has seen the number of resident philoso phers shrink to nine. Miller managed to get tenure in the mid-’70s partly on the strength of a petition signed by 3000 students and faculty. The administration was reluctant to risk dismissing him, Miller adds, just one year after the university had been convulsed by the firing of fellow radical Michael Parenti.

Still only 21, he then * enrolled in the University of Illinois, from which he earned a Bachelor’s degree in 1966 and a Ph.D. three years later. He was soon hired by UVM, and the rest is...eventful. Despite all the commotion of his years in academia, Miller concedes that he enjoys “a rela tively privileged situation.” A university campus, he says, “is supposed to be a place where embarrassing and controversial ideas get debated, and I’ve tried to take advantage of that ideal.” Sensitive to charges of ivorytower elitism, Miller points out that he takes his views into the broader community whenever opportunities arise. As administrator of the Green Mountain Fund for Popular Struggle, Miller main tains close contact with small activist groups around the state that have received or are seeking grants from the foundation endowed by a former UVM stu dent. The fund has distributed $350,000 over the last seven years in 106 separate grants. As he looks ahead to 2005 — the year he is eligible for a retirement he doesn’t plan on taking — Miller sees a world facing Marx’s classic choice between socialism and bar barism. The latter option

were sown early by his father, a Chicago-area union electrician and liberal Democrat, who passed along to the son not only social awareness but the trade he practiced. Miller is a licensed electrician who built and wired the home in Westford that he shares with partner and middleschool teacher Ann Lipsitt. It was in the Army that Miller’s maverick streak began to emerge. Working in West Germany as an analyst of com munications intercepted from East Germany, he recalls learning that “our government actually lies to us about what it’s doing.” Stateside, he got in trouble with Army brass after he wrote a letter to The Boston Herald protesting the terms of a call-up at the time of the Berlin airlift. By refusing to be intimidated by the threat of court martial and by rallying like-minded GIs, Miller says he succeeded in “embarrassing the Army into dropping the charges” and to awarding him an honor able discharge.

appears to prevail, Miller laments. “It’s hard to do worse than what the people in charge have done,” he concludes, completely counter to the currently upbeat outlook of millions of prosper ous Americans. Miller’s world is a scary place teetering “on the brink of global warfare” and plagued by “environmental dev astation.” Not to despair, however. Miller perks up perceptibly as he points out that “todays global ization was predicted by Marx as affording ripe conditions for rev olution.” W ith his computer blinking beside him as he edits a Web ’zine version of The Gadfly, the grandfatherly incorrigible beams as he dreams of a future in which “the Internet brings peo ple together the world over” — for purposes of questioning the status quo and stirring things up. ®

It recalled the days when a thriving residential community once occupied that turf. According to Dennison, some 200 low- to moderateincome Italian, Syrian, Lebanese, Irish, Jewish and French-Canadian families were pushed out by “eminent domain.” As research historian and “Neighborhood Project” collaborator John Thomas notes, essential human qualities were also sacrificed in the bar

gain. “Most of the families did n’t have their stories collected,” he says. “There’s nothing mark ing [the neighborhood]. There’s nothing commemorating it in any way.” The second installment in the year-long project is more celebratory, and the answer to the “question” is affordable housing. The point will be dif ficult to miss, as Dennison and 30 participating artists perform in the brand-new Park Place co operative housing project while spectators watch from the street. “W hat’s great is that it

still exists,” Dennison says of the building comlpex. “Somewhere along the way someone could’ve torn it down. We have the potential to really kind of make a new start.” Park Place itself is the prod uct of creative vision. After the building formerly known as the Huntington Hotel was gutted in a 1996 fire, it was purchased by a partnership composed of the Burlington Community Land Trust, Housing Vermont and the Howard and Granite banks. According to Anya Schwartz, co-op trainer with

somewhat sketchy reputation. The ’96 blaze was one o f many the building had seen over the years; in between it was not considered a terribly nice place to live. O n June 15, the space will become a very nice home to roughly 40 low- and middleincome tenants. W ith the second- and thirdfloor units still empty, Dennison and her troupe will take advan tage of the available floor space to form a tableau of diverse movements and actions. In one window, a trumpeter blows a plaintive tune. In a corner room,

In choreographing this sec tion o f “The Neighborhood Project,” Dennison says she gave only two directions: First, artists had to compose some thing having to do with “a sense of place.” Second, they had to come up with an idea relevant to their current daily lives. The resulting work is not a cohesive whole, an effect amplified by the partial, frag mented views that the “audi ence” — that is, anybody on the block at that moment — C o n tin u e d on page 13

will have. “You’re only going to see parts and parcels of things,” she says. “It’s a way of looking at bodies moving and gestur ing, and light and stance and closeness and partial obscuring of something that’s going on.” Dennison also envisions a _ cosmic aspect to the piece: “We’re helping to christen this building that has had a rough karma,” she says. “We’re preparing these spaces for the people who are going to be moving in.” Meanwhile, at street level . two guides will lead spectators from City Hall Park and around the building, imparting the history of the block. Much as the first installment of the project brought to light a neighborhood that many citydwellers never knew existed, the text of the Park Place piece fosters what Thomas calls “a sense of deep time in one spot.” In the case of the block containing City Hall and the park, that time doesn’t look so different from the present, Thomas observes. The English tradition of a village green, coupled with the decision to place municipal buildings on it, has had a positive impact on the way the block developed — giving rise to banks, law offices and attendant services. City Hall Park has long been “a real derelict spot,” he says. “I think that what goes on there now is probably what has been going on there for 200 years.” The cumulative effect of “The Neighborhood Project” trilogy should “amplify the sense of community,” Thomas says. The third installment, slated for October, will focus on local ownership of small businesses. Though the piece is still a work-in-progress, Dennison envisions commis sioning artists to compose musical, dance and visual art works for performance in the small, locally owned and increasingly rare businesses hidden throughout the city’s wards. “The third one is going to be quite fun,” she says. The ground Dennison has covered so far has yielded an abstract yet clearly cautionary tale. In the course of her work, she has been struck by the fact that — the results of urban renewal notwithstanding — “people thought that what they were doing was good for the town,” she says. But Thomas has a less forgiving conclusion. “It struck me that it took out a lot that’s irreplaceable,” he says. “Its a tough mistake to make.”

ith apologies to Walt Whitman — when lilacs last in the doorvard bloom’d, it was before the suburbs crept across the country, gobbling up farms along the way. It was before lawns began to run rampant through the countryside, and those leaves of grass took over the land scape. It was before rhodo dendrons conquered North America. Who was it that decided that every front door had to be flanked by a pair of rhodies? It wasn’t me, nor any landscaper I know. Who decreed that the ideal of landscaping beauty is a shrub with incongruous pastel pompons that draw the eye for a couple of weeks, then fade into the foundation the rest of the year. The result is about as interesting and pre dictable as the lawn that laps up to their roots. It was prob ably decided by contractors playing at landscaper. Or maybe it was the all-powerful rhododendron lobby. Whatever the reason, those shrubs have forced lilacs far ther and farther out of circu lation. Todays lowly status of lilacs and other old-fashioned flowering shrubs can be blamed on the impression that they simply are old-fash ioned plants, and not cut ting-edge plants like herba ceous perennials or ornamen tal grasses. We can blame ourselves, too. We demand more from our garden plants these days. We want to be entertained and amused by them. And aside from that month-long display of color and spectacu lar fragrance, the lilac is a pretty unremarkable plant — though there is one, the Korean Early Lilac Syringa oblata dilatata, with foliage that turns deep red in autumn. Not so long ago, lilacs were the plant of choice in rural Vermont.Why? Because they willingly offered their charms without pampering. It wasn’t necessary to take time out from the farm chores to tend to them. Yes, you can still find lilacs along the back roads of the state; the farther you travel from suburban sprawl, the more you see, populating the coun tryside like grandparents exiled to the back porch. ■,

Lilacs often stand as couples, bracketing the front door of a farmhouse. You will often find a lonely pair in an over grown clearing field, having outlived the house they once graced. In fact, when archae ologists and antique bottle hunters go looking for old farmyards, they keep their eyes out for lilacs as markers. O f course, you can also find them at the Shelburne Museum, where they’re cele brated annually during the museum’s Lilac Festival.

Hampshire, that was planted in 1750. And the Arnold Arboretum in Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts, holds North America’s largest collection, with more than 500 cultivars. I suggest it’s time to free the lilacs and reintroduce them into Vermont land scapes. They’re easy to grow — just plant them in the sun. Prune out the suckers, the weak growth that sprouts from the base of the plant. Remove spent blooms in early summer for better flow

illingly offered their charms without pampering. That’s an entirely appropriate place for them, as lilacs have become a piece of Americana. So I spent an afternoon at the Shelburne Museum this May admiring the display — the flowers were at their peak. There were vast herds of “Victor Lemoine,” the classic common lilac known for its fragrance; stately stands of “Mme F. Morel” with its huge blooms; and samples of the reddish-purple “Pocahontas” bracketing walkways. Strolling the grounds and catching the subde shift of fragrance from one cultivar to the next made me nostalgic for the lilacs that punctuated our farmyard when I was a boy. And I couldn’t shake a certain sadness, the same feel ing I get at a zoo. It was as though I were viewing the inhabitants in captivity — a herd of them here, a flock of them there. It’s not that the lilacs themselves are in danger of extinction. Breeders keep churning out new cultivars; hundreds are on the market today. (But where are they? Who’s planting them?) Rather, it’s the way of life, and the aesthetic lilacs repre sent, that seems to be disap pearing. Too bad, because the lilac is one of the few plants — along with the dandelion — that actually thrives in Vermont. Though not native to North America — most originated in Asia and Eastern Europe — lilacs love New England. There’s a stand of common lilacs growing in Portsmouth, New

ering the following year. And once they’ve matured, you can remove about one-third of the old growth every year to reinvigorate the plant. Or not. There are plenty of grand old lilacs that have never felt the sharp edge of a pair of pruning shears. The common lilac Syringa vulgaris is a good foolproof species to start with. There are scores of varieties in many hues of purple, magenta, blue and white. Here are some of the best: “Paul Thirion” — a large plant with a profusion of magenta blooms; “President Roosevelt” — large blooms in the deepest purple; “Victor Lemoine” — classic lilac color and good scent; “Mme F. Morel” — huge, single-flowered magen ta blooms; “Leon Gambetta” — large pink and white blooms. Some of the best new hybrids are coming out of Russia, including “Krasavitsa Moskvy.” Its pink buds open to huge flower heads — up to one foot long and eight inches broad — of creamy white with just a tinge of pink. You can extend the lilac season by planting a Korean Early Lilac, such as “Pocahontas.” It blooms at least a week before the com mon lilac. All the above are glorious. None are fussy or frail. Along with dozens of other varieties, they’ve hung Green Mountain tough at the Shelburne Museum or the University of Vermont Horticultural Farm — proof that purple can still reign. ©

PLAYING SCALES Fans of the Boulder-based quintet Leftover Salmon have been waiting with baited breath for another local appearance. Hooking bluegrass with rock, and vigorously rubbing it with cajun spice, the fishy fivesome spawned their own unique flavor — best consumed chilled, after smoking. Leftover Salmon can be caught at Higher Ground this Saturday with the Blueground Undergrass. Accept no red herrings.

In the tradition of the popular Blues and Gospel Tents, this year Discover Jazz inaugurates the Swing Tent, with a triple bill of The Toasters (pictured), N.Y. Ska/Jazz Ensemble, and Nick Palumbo & the Flipped Fedoras. The Toasters have been at the forefront of the ska revival since 1981, when Robert “Bucket” Hingley founded the group. Their latest CD on Hingley’s Moon Ska label, Don’t Let the Bastards Get You Down, features not only the chunky, upbeat, guitar-driven, hornsection layered rhythms of “classic” ska, but also songs with a laidback reggae feel, a touch of swing, and even one dub-oriented selec tion. It’s easy to hear why they’ve had such an impact on punk and hardcore bands The Bosstones and Rancid. N.Y. Ska/Jazz Ensemble fuses these two genres in a danceable instrumental mix. Co-founded by Toasters Fred Reiter and Rick Faulkner, the group includes keyboard player Cary Brown and guitarist Devon James of The Skatalites — the Jamaican group that helped spearhead ska’s “first wave” back in the ’60s. NYSJE blends ska-ified versions of jazz standards — by the likes of Charles Mingus, Duke Ellington, Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane and Eddie Harris — with strong originals. Nick Palumbo & the Flipped Fedoras have received rave reviews for their flamboyant retro-swing, grounded in the 1930s-1940s bigband swing of Count Basie and Benny Goodman and the jump-blues of Louis Jordan, but with a decidedly ’90s edge. The Fedoras were fea

Busking Loose B y P a u l G ib s o n

hen I think of street performers, I think of times I’ve heard classical violin or jazz sax reverberating, seemingly for miles, underground in big-city sub way warrens, and the way the sight of grime and smell of piss recede as you cock an ear toward more pleasant sensa tions. In Burlington, we’re not likely to have a subway any time soon, and buskers ply their crafts mostly aboveground on the relatively sanitized Church Street Marketplace. Former Church Street fixture Richard Haupt, aka “The Clarinet M an,” is gone but well-remembered (though yet to be memorialized), and the all-weather pan-flute guy is back from self-imposed exile following an attack that led him to denounce Burlington as the meanest town in the world or some thing. I haven’t < seen that scary bal loon-twisting clown lately, and the Great Rondini seems to have escaped Church Street TOOTLES th e la te R ich a rd H aupt, altogether. n o w P atron S a in t o f B uskers Even though I sometimes like buskers more in theory than in practice — and they occa sionally become the nemeses of Church Street employees — human performers, regardless of ability, bring something tribal and real to what is increasingly a street of national chains grafted onto the heart of our downtown. Recent sightings include a wunderkind classical violin/keyboard duo, a fiddler playing stuff that could’ve been from that Civil War TV series, a singing cowboy, a high school stage band, and a seemingly permit-less, pointless hippie drum triangle that I was prepared to pay to stop. Performers do have to pay to play, but licensing fees are fairly reasonable. Playing on the bricks is a little more pricy than in the rest of the city, and there are more rules to fol low, but they’re not as draconian as, say, those imposed on cart vendors. A Marketplace license, for groups or individu als, costs $5/day, $10/weekend, or $25/year vs. $l/day, $3/week or $10/year elsewhere in Burlington. The Marketplace Commission requires a photo and application, and regulates such things as total number of acts allowed out at once (eight), proper locations and duration at each location, safety and volume. No amplification is allowed, and brass is supposed to be muted. Acts involving fire or hazardous materials must carry insurance — or maybe get a gig at Red Square, where a juggling doorman is all we’ve seen of the freaks and fire-eaters they’ve been promising. So all you performers out there, stop aspiring and start perspiring. Vermont’s short summer is here, the weather’s been exceptionally sweet, and there are tons of people out. Don’t wait for someone to offer you a gig; hone your craft, make a few bucks, sell a few tapes. Every performance makes you better than 10 rehearsals will. You can count on me, at least, for whatever change I got in my pocket, or even some green if I’m really impressed. Hope that rootsy dobro blues guy is out again this year... ®

FOUNTAINS OF WAYNE,

UTOPIA PARKWAY (Atlantic Records, CD ) — Fountains o f Wayne is the nam e o f a statu ary store in Wayne, New Jersey, and a fitting nam e for a band that pens G arden State anthem s like the ones on Utopia Parkway. Formed in 1995, the Fountains play British Invasion-style power pop that recalls the glory days o f AM radio, w hen unrepentant ear candy ruled the airwaves. W ith nods to T h e Beatles, T h e Cars, Cheap Trick and even T he Steve Miller Band, songwriters Chris Collingwood and Adam Schlesinger rework familiar cliches into tightly crafted gems that pack a hook-filled punch. Like fellow popsters Ben Folds Five, the Waynes aren’t afraid to let their geek flags fly as they wax pathetic on unrequited lust and subur ban ennui. O n the title track, a w ishful-thinking rock star wannabe dreams o f the big-tim e while “playing in a cover band” and “saving for a custom van.” “Red Dragon Tattoo” finds a starry-eyed Jersey kid getting inked at Coney Island to prove to his dream girl that he’s “fit to be dyed.” O n other tracks, like the wistful “Prom T hem e” and “T he Senators D aughter,” the song writers balance their irony with achingly bittersweet melodies that tug at the heartstrings. More lushly produced than their self-titled debut (which featured the hit “Radiation Vibe”), Utopia Parkway adds lots o f keyboards, strings and backing vocals to sweeten the crunchy guitars. Front and center is Collingwood s voice, which is perfectly suited to the adolescent longing o f the lyrics. Like the vintage Kinks, Fountains of Wayne find poetry and comedy in the m undane and have fash ioned a bubblegum opera about life in suburbia. In the w aning days o f the post-grunge ’90s, their clever nerd-rock is a nice little holiday in the sun. Check out Wayne’s world this W ednesday at Higher G round. Johnny Society open. — B ill M ullins HONKEYBALL, DOWN B Y THREE (Wonderdrug, C D ) — Like post-m odern, post-hardcore or heavy music is a hybird cate gory tricky to define. After ’80s hardcore took harder and faster to an inevitable dead end, where was there to go? Boston’s Honkeyball are typical o f a generation o f bands blending strains o f hardcore, metal and even a little prog into som ething hope fully new. O n their third and latest release, Down By Three, Honkeyball mix it up with considerable success, avoiding cliches but often sounding a tad too close to genre trail-blazers like Fugazi and H elm et. Singer/guitarist George Tsiaras, bassist/backing vocalist Claude Yama and drum m er Eric O ’Brien play w ith power and precision, and manage to imbue the music w ith an ominous, edgy feel w ithout resorting to gim micks such as the laughable dem onic vocal effects employed by many peers. As the title implies, this is not exactly a happy record, but Honkeyball do stay mostly positive, prom oting selfawareness and self-reliance on songs like “Clear the Lane” and “Last G ood Nerve” — the latter actually radio-friendly! T h e trio even dabbles in psychedelia on “Last T im e,” w ith its slow, trippy slide guitar and tremolo vocals. I liked the “Steppin’ Stone”-like intro/outro to “Brockton Lullaby,” and the way Tsiaras whines like J. Mascis on “Stop Bleeding.” Honkeyball are probably at their most Helm et-like on “In H arm ’s Way,” a creepy song from the point o f view o f a stalker. O n the rowdy, lo-fi closer, “M oney in the Bag,” they sorta time-travel back to their old-school hard core roots. Honkeyball don’t let their relatively sophisticated musicianship dull the buzz that heavy music ideally throws off, but even w ith variation, the dom inant staccatto-guitar-over-halftim e-funk-inflected-drum s formula here can make for some fair ly forgettable songs. There are barbs aplenty, b u t n o t m any hooks. See Honkeyball take it to the hoop live, along w ith Sam Black Church, O verthrow and Evenm ind, at 242 M ain this Saturday. — Paul Gibson

Short on warmth and humor, and way long on computer imaging, the film succeeds less as a fleshed-out story than as an ad for his special effects business, and an opportunity to make millions in merchan dising tie-ins. (PG) THE 13TH FLOOR**172 From Roland Emmerich, the guy who gave us Godzilla, comes this mindbender with a story line that jumps back and fourth between parallel worlds.

Car WHY DON’T PARKED CAR’S HEADLIGHTS TURN OFF AUTO MATICALLY? Dear Tom and Ray, Can you tell me why car mak ers don't connect the headlight switch to the ignition switch? Every morning or after a heavy rain, you drive into any parking lot and see a dozen cars parked with the headlights on, resulting in dead batteries and frustrated motorists. — Harold RAY: Well, Harold, this is due to a concerted lobby effort by Battery Manufacturers of America and the International

Tow Truck Drivers' Union. TOM: There's no good reason why headlights don't go off when you turn off the ignition key. And a number of cars have been doing it this way for years — BMW, Volkswagon, Volvo and Audi come to mind. Although some of them leave the parking lights on, which can drain your battery just as easily if left on overnight. RAY: Other cars, like certain Toyotas, turn all of the lights off when the ignition is off and you open the driver's door. And that's a good solution, too. TOM: I can't think of a reason these days why you would want your lights on without having the key in the ignition. So it seems like a feature every car should have. RAY: It requires a little bit more wiring and one extra relay, but

cars are so complex these days that one more relay is hardly going to matter. TOM: So we're with you, Harold. Lights off with the ignition! You have the placards made, and we'll organize the march on Detroit. Dear Tom and Ray, My dad, who knew more about car engines than anyone I ever knew, swore by the benefits of Marvel Mystery Oil. He always poured MMO in the crankcase at each oil change and sometimes put it in the gas tank. His cars always made it to 200,000 miles. Will Marvel Mystery Oil harm a modern enginei My 1997 Ford Ranger has developed an occa sional noisy lifter problem that the dealer can't replicate. Harking back to my dad's experi ence, I'm tempted to dump a can o f MMO in the tank and crankcase, but one o f the dealer's mechanics said he wouldn't do it because the factory recommends against additives. There's nothing

in the manual about additives. What do you think? — Les RAY: Marvel Mystery Oil is kind of like chicken soup, Les. It probably won't help, but it can't hurt. TOM: The reason most manu facturers make a blanket recom mendation against additives is because there are too many to keep track of. There are thou sands of additives on the market these days. Several of them probably even contain chicken soup. RAY: Most of them, like MMO, probably won't hurt your car, but it's impossible for the manufacturers to test them all. So they play it safe and don't recommend any of them. TOM: And I doubt the MMO will solve your lifter problem, which could be caused by low oil pressure tested. The lifter could also be leaking down, which is common these days with self-adjusting lifters. A lot

of them are just not "beefy" enough by design, in my opin io n .

RAY: But feel free to try MMO. And if that doesn't work, try some Haley's M-O. My brother puts that in his ’63 Dodge Dart. It doesn't do anything for his lifters either, but the car is incredibly regular. How can you tell i f a used car is in good condition — or even OK, for that matter? Find out by ordering Tom and Ray's pamphlet "How to Buy a Great Used Car: Things That Detroit and Tokyo Don't Want You to Know. " Send $3 and a stamped (55 cents), self-addressed, No. 10 envelope to Used Car, PO Box 6420, Riverton, NJ 080776420. Got a question about cars?

The phallic aspects tend to get airbrushed out of the modern picture of of Scratch, but let’s not kid ourselves. When Christian artists pondered the most dangerous and subversive of the deadly sins, they weren’t thinking of secu rities fraud. It was only natural that they should seize on the frankly sexual figure of Pan. (I’m thinking here of Panas-old-lech, not the romanticized Disney version.) I mean, if you want a truly disturbing portrait of wickedness, what are you going to pick up on, mass murder? Too alien. Whereas unbridled sexuality...I’m not pointing any fin gers, but this is a topic to which a lot of us can relate. Pan also had the advantage of being pagan, and since time immemorial the gods of one age have become the demons of the next. Satan wasn’t drawn strictly from Pan, and for that mat ter portraits of the devil weren’t as consistent as today’s highly stylized version might suggest. Artists of centuries past, like Hollywood special-effects geniuses today, tended to be pretty eclectic in their search for frightening imagery. If you look through medieval woodcuts and such, you see a devil who’s often claw-footed, with a long pointed tail and sometimes wings — more on the order of a gargoyle. His i

sumably being headed for eternal dam nation. T he preach ers say this is because sheep are obedient whereas goats are ornery and do their own thing. Also, goats have — one m ust speak frankly — prom inent genitals. Sheep, on the other hand...sheepish? Sheep to the slaughter? Sorry, babe, but I’d rather be a goat. All that having been said, the connection between Satan and goats is indirect. T h e goatlike features com m on ly attributed to the devil derive from the Greek pastoral deity Pan, who was half man, half goat. I have here a pic ture o f a sixth-century Coptic ivory carving o f Pan, and if you take away the pipes and give him a pitchfork, you’re looking at the devil, com plete w ith cloven hooves, hairy legs, horns and beard. O h, and prom inent genitals.

I don’t know what it is with goats. You get my goat. Old goat. Scapegoat. Bible — well, New Testament — scholars will remember Matthew 25:31-33, “the Son of Man...will separate the people one from another as a shep herd separates the sheep from the goats. He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left,” the goats pre

Dear Cecil, What’s the deal with Satan and goats? In some pictures Satan has a goatee, horns and hooves like a goat’s. I don’t read the Bible much, but is there a part where it says goats are evil or something like that? I ’d like to know. — Jimmy Anderson, Arkansas

color varies, too, though Satan was frequently portrayed as either black or red — black being the color o f death, and red no d oubt suggesting blood and carnality. T he trident probably comes from N eptune. I could give you a long list o f other precedents from ancient iconography, but let’s skip that. T h e trick in portraying Satan has always been simple enough. You w ant a critter o f which one thinks: O oh, th at’s scary. But also: You know, I can see the appeal.

Dear Cecil, I always thought yam and sweet potato were two names for the same thing. However, when I asked to be passed the yams at a recent family gathering, I was informed by one of my snotty East Coast cousins that no yams were on the menu. I was reduced to askingfor the “ f**king orange things, a**hole, ” which detractedfrom the air o f refinement and class that I like to convey. What’s the straight dope, Cecil? — Robbie Federer, Evanston, Illinois I see you were able to communicate, which is the main thing. Technically, however, your cousin is right. Contrary to what even some grocery store produce guys think, yams and sweet potatoes are unrelated vegetables, though in both cases you’re eating the root of a tropical vine. Sweet pota toes, Ipomoea batatas (“batata” is the original Taino name, whence potato), are an American plant of the morning glory family, whereas yams are of the genus Dioscorea. Yams, which are rarely seen in the U.S. and Canada but are a sta ple in tropical regions, can grow up to seven feet in length. The name is thought to derive from the West African word nyami, “to eat,” which is heard in Jamaican patois expres sions such as, Oonu wan fi nyam banana dem?, “Do you guys want to eat those bananas?” Lay that on your cousins at the next reunion if you want to shut them up. ® — CECIL ADAMS a

oIogy

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Lets compare your life right now to an unassembled jigsaw puzzle. Lets say, for arguments sake, that this puzzle has 300 pieces, but you’re in possession of only 290 of them. What to do? My advice would be not to go hunting for the missing pieces just yet. Instead, I suggest that you first put together as much of the puz zle as you can. My psychic powers tell me that within a week of the time you do this, the 10 lost pieces will show up. Hot tip: Start with the cluster of purples.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): The San Francisco Chronicle's Leah Garchick once wrote a profile of Dr. Andy Lesko, a chiropractor who plays the guitar. She asked him if it was hard to feel people’s spines through the calluses on his guitar-player’s hands. “I feel through the calluses,” he replied. “It’s kind of like-life.” I present this as your thought for the week, Taurus. The cosmos is ready to help you become more sensitive in the places where you’ve grown tough, and more receptive to nuances you shut yourself down to some time ago.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): According to the tenets of my spiritual tradition, the most right eously fun way to greet a fellow human being is to place one’s hands in a gesture of prayer, bow deeply, and say, “I greet the God within you.” We also have a spe cial salutation for people who’ve recently had or who will soon have their birthdays. We throw ourselves on the ground, kiss their feet profusely, and cry out, “I greet the dazzling, enthralling, volcanically creative God within you.” This is the blessing I’m con ferring on you this week, Gemini. By the way, it’s amazing how many people report that within a few days after they’ve received this

ACROSS 1 Chili con — 6 October birthstone 10 Word before barrel or chop 14 Civet 10 With the normal voice 20 Biblical weed 21 Olive genus 22 — Rib11949 movie) 23 Author of 32 Across 25 He wrote “Daisy Miller" 27 Some are indelible 28 Spartan serfs 30 Sioux Indian 31 Part in the play 32 *— Miserables* 33 Ares In reverse? 34 Wood sorrel 36 “— of the Pioneers' 38 Smith and JoIson 38 Galatea's beloved 40 “Put the — on Marne' 42 Greek portico 44 He penned -Paradise i. lost" 47 Expressive movement 48 'Persuasion' author 53 Fully grown 54 Two Years

stv

salaam from me, they experience a dazzling, enthralling, volcanic breakthrough. I’m almost positive that you, too, will reap this benefit.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): I’m sure you’ve heard of how lots of weed species become hardy and ineradicable by developing resis tances to pesticides. And you’re familiar with how an oyster reacts to a parasite or grain of sand that slips into its shell: It attacks the irritant with layers of nacre, there by creating a pearl. What else do you need to know in order to deal with the burr in your fur or the salt in your wound or whatever it is that’s nettling you these days? But wait. Before you decide this is just another reminder that, “If it doesn’t kill you, it’ll make you stronger,” check my second metaphor again. The pearl is not a symbol of strength, but of beauty.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): Your assignment this week is to create Temporary Autonomous Zones (TAZ) wherever you can. As for mulated by writer Hakim Bey, a TAZ is any place that hosts a fes tive event which liberates the imaginations of everyone present, thereby making it possible for life to be penetrated by the Marvelous. Authority and dignity and routine have no place at a TAZ; an uninhibited quest for conviviality must be the only guideline. With the right group of people, and with your inspired rabble-rousing, a dinner party could become a TAZ, as might a dance or camp-out or day at the beach. So get out there, Leo, and conjure up what the cosmos has made you an expert at: “life spending itself in living rather than merely surviving.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I’m sure you wouldn’t believe me if I told you all the healings that can materialize for you in the coming weeks, so I’ll just list a modest few. Believe it or not, Virgo, you could: 1) catch hold of a gift you’ve been afraid to want; 2) fall out of love with the wrong obsession; 3) remember a boister ous truth that’s been wreaking a mess ever since it was forgotten; 4) get a playdate with your inner child’s pet dragon; 3) master the art of making a perfect pie crust; 6) realize you have an undiag nosed learning disability and fig ure out what you have to do to compensate for it; 7) annul the black magic you practiced on yourself last winter.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In the game of bridge, it’s considered lucky if you’re dealt a hand in which there are no cards of one particular suit. This allows you to capture tricks with the trump suit right from the start. I’d like you to regard this as a metaphor for your own life this week, Libra. An absence of a certain resource will give you an arresting advantage over other people, especially when you’re engaged in fun or playful activities that have serious conse quences.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23 Nov. 21): Taurus, Cancer, Libra and Scorpio are traveling through Kansas. A tornado comes along and whisks them away to Oz. Once they figure out where they are, Taurus announces “I’ll ask the wizard for a brain.” “Courage for me,” peeps the Cancer. Libra says “I’ll request a heart.” “Ha!” snorts Scorpio derisively. “What I want

are kick-ass talents for seeing everyone’s hidden agendas, feeling rare and extreme feelings no one in the history of the world has ever experienced, and finding God through fucking.” Scorpio’s com panions look befuddled. “But you’ve already mastered all those skills,” protests Libra. “True,” says Scorpio, “but I don’t have any weaknesses that need fixing, and besides, I want to see what hap pens when I’m twice as much myself as I’ve ever been before.”

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): When I went to my high school reunion, I found that one of our class’ chief troublemak ers had become a father of two. “It’s my wife’s job,” he told me, “to instill morality and good sense and compassion in our kids. But it’s my job to make sure they understand the value of madness." I knew exactly what he was talk ing about. I often think of myself as both a mommy and daddy to my readers. As a mommy, I try to help you to act nice and play fair and be successful in the game of life. As a daddy, I sometimes want to inspire you to rise above life’s insanity with rebellious glee and mischievous unpredictability. Like now.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): What scares you most now could be what fuels you best by mid-summer. Notice I said “could.” In the type of astrology I practice, there are no predestina tions or ultimatums. You can, if you prefer, continue to keep your monstrous feelings locked away deep in your special hiding place; you’re under no obligation to stare them down. If, however, you’re interested in tapping into an

■• -

-~-v

■ -x "

maginably rich vein of piration, you’ll begin godating in earnest with ur least glamorous fear week.

ARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The bumpersticker I’d choose for people born under the sign of Cancer the Crab would be “I brake for yard sales and open houses.” Virgos would get “I brake to check and see if my brakes are working,” while Scorpios’ slogan would be “I’ll brake when I’m damn good and ready, so leave me the hell alone.” Your bumpersticker, dear Aquarius, would be the shortest and sweetest: “I brake rules.” And this week, I hope you live up to that motto 1000 percent.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-March 20): A brass unicorn and a suit case crammed with a ventrilo quist’s dummies may play a prominent role in your fate in the coming week. Then again, they may not. Or it could be that a graffiti-defaced Garth Brooks poster will be nearby when you decipher the central riddle of the game of life. Or maybe not. My advice to you, Pisces, is this: Don’t wait around for these or any other mystical signs. Instead, create your own omens. Decide, for instance, that whenever you picture in your mind’s eye a red rubber ball bal ancing on top of a geyser, you will snare another clue about what exactly it is you want to have, be and accomplish before you die many years from now. @ You can call Rob Brozsny, day or night for your
