WHY SO NEGATIVE? We heard Peter Burton at FlynnSpace last week and still wonder at the hatchet job Ethan Covey did on his CD [“Review This,” May 14]. W hat does his picture on the flap have to do with the music inside? Though biased by parenthood, we do believe that the tone of the review was uncalled for, for a guy who pours his heart and soul into his music — and conveys that to his audience. Wish Covey had taken the time to attend. Wayne & Betsy Burton DURHAM, N.H.

VOICE OF AMERICA This past Monday I listened to Bernie Sanders' new radio talk show on WDEV in Waterbury [“Inside Track,” May 28]. I pre dict it won't go far. The reason? Bernie's voice. It is not easy on our... Vermont ears. Or any body's ears! After 35 years since relocating from Brooklyn, New York, you would think that annpying nasal voice would have softened a bit. Sometimes I a thought I was listening to Elmer Fudd! Hey, Bernie — Please lose > the nasally foreign Brooklyn h accent. My ears can't take it! Michael S. Luna JEFFERSONVILLE

HEAD OF STATE Peter Kurth devotes pretty much a whole column to the size of President Bush's privates. Why am I not surprised? Lee Bowen SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.

ARMS CACHE I wish journalists would stop twit ting our president select because he hasn’t found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. GW ’s even got Peter Freyne [“Inside Track,’’ May 28] marching to his beat.

I mean, does anybody seriously doubt such weapons will be “found?” O f course they will. And it doesn’t matter where they came from or what they really are. For instance, as the bombs dropped, an embedded journalist reported finding a hut with rag-stoppered bottles. Not what you’d call a lab oratory, nor could he tell what the bottles contained, he said. However, during a one-minute interview break, an NPR news anchor transformed that honestly filed report into discovery of a

chemical weapons factory. Need for vindication runs that wide. When the “smoking gun” is “discovered” — as it must be — the jingoistic cheer will be heard clear across the country, as more liberal folks, marginally against Bush’s various wars, domestic and foreign, utter a huge sigh of relief. Those who twitted will need to be quiet (or be con demned as “terrorist tools”). And that will be that: Ave Bush. I suggest it would be more helpful to assume the sought-for

evidence of “W M Ds” will be “found” and focus instead at this time on past instances of govern ment criminality, lies and deceit that make that possible — indeed, inevitable. Remember Tonkin? Iran-Contra? Don Peabody ST. ALBANS

WHAT WOULD LEE DO? James Barnett, the new chairman of the Vermont Republican Party, has as his role models Lee At water and Karl Rove [“Inside Track,” May 14] and to quote him, “I have great respect for Karl Rove and Lee Atwater.” People usually try to emulate their role models, especially those for whom they have great respect. With his attack on Bernie San ders [“Inside Track,” May 28] he has wasted no time in following in their footsteps. If he persists in this course there can be unfortu nate consequences for Vermont and for him personally. The consequences for himself are best described in [a New York Times article] during the latter part of Mr. Atwater’s life, when he was having an end-of-life con version: Lee Atwater, who was accused o f negative campaigning as head o f George Bush’s presidential campaign, says he has been making peace with former foes Democrat and Republican. He also says that he has turned to religion since he

was told by doctors that he had cancer. “I have found Jesus Christ. It is that simple, ”he said... I don’t hate anybody anymore... It’s just no point in fighting and feuding. ” Mr. Barnett can spare himself a similar end-of-life conversion, and at the same time treat Vermont voters with respect, by not emulating the behavior of Lee Atwater and Karl Rove here in Vermont.

FILM WORLD We are grateful to Seven Days for your incisive coverage of the film scene in Vermont, especially for the recent article ["Summer Preview," May 28] about the International Film Festival at Middlebury College. We hope your readers will attend our film series beginning June 14, but if they are expecting a film in Swahili, they will be sorely disap pointed. Our films are in Arabic, Chinese, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian and Spanish — the same nine lan guages offered at the summer Language Schools. We don't offer Swahili — not yet, anyway. Robert J. Keren MIDDLEBURY

Copping an Attitude B ru n c h he Thought Police showed up nearly on time — just 19 years later than George Orwell predicted in his classic novel, 1984. In this case, though, it was a Thought Policeman — one lone, rogue cop. And unlike Orwell’s constables of P e te r F rey n e is the consciousness, this one, Officer Jo h n ta k in g a w e e k M ott of the Barre Town Police Depart o f f fo r t h e fir s t tim e s in c e h e ment, presumably has no mind-reading s ta r te d w r itin g powers; he relies on the concrete — fo r Seven Days posters, drawings and bumper stickers — in 1 9 9 5 . D on't for "evidence" of subversive thinking. fr e t, h e 'll b e b a ck n e x t w e e k . Most Vermonters know M ott’s story by now, and some civic business leaders G uest c o lu m n ist in Barre Town wish it would just go away. W ill L in d n er is If it does go away, however, their town — a fo r m e r e d ito my town — will be the poorer for it. The ria l p a g e e d ito r a n d c o lu m n ist worst thing we could do is ignore a cru fo r t h e Times sade to castigate people on the basis of Argus. He liv e s their beliefs, especially when those people in Barre. are children. i At 1:30 a.m. on the night of April 9, while we townsfolk were sleeping, Officer Mott took a “break” from his duties, left his jurisdiction by crossing into Barre City, ^nd drgve to Spaulding y ig h As *rA '*&School, which serves students from both the Barres and other neighboring com munities. Dressed in uniform and totin’

The w orst th in g we could do is ig n o re a cru sad e to c a stig a te p eople on th e b asis of th e ir b eliefs, especially w h en th o se p eo p le are ch ild re n . his,gun, he found a way to get into the school. Mott knew his way around the corridors, having taught ROTC at Spaulding, Once inside, he got the jani tor and had him unlock the door to teacher Tom Treece's classroom. Who’s going to refuse a cop? Treece had been the focus of local con servative enmity because the teacher had not concealed his distaste for the George W. Bush Administration and its war policies. In fact, Treece had broadcast his opinions, by deriding Bush on a commu nity bulletin board in the school as “the idiot boy king” and pasting an “Impeach Bush” bumper sticker on his classroom door. In his Public Issues course he was leading discussions about the war on Iraq, among other topics, and, given his unconcealed political positions, conserva tives suspected he was indoctrinating young minds with liberal bias. And never forget that for conservatives, “liberal” means “anti-American.” O ur society has grown dangerously divided and hostile, and we jump to con

clusions when we know or think we know another person’s persuasion. In this case, Treece’s students had said publicly that he encouraged them to think, listen, consider and espouse in the Public Issues course, and if the fruits of that exercise led them to admire Bush and support the war, that was as acceptable an outcome to Treece as any other. Rumors flew in this community, how ever, about people shoving desks at each other, flags being destroyed in the class room, and teachers cruelly deriding stu dents for their beliefs. It didn’t matter what Treece’s students said, not even con servative students who disagreed with his politics but valued his class. Adults who hadn’t been in the school and had no children in the school knew better. Treece and Mott, by the way, knew each other from their days as co-faculty members at Spaulding, and in the words of someone connected to the school, were “not on each other’s Christmas card list.” Uniformed Police Officer Mott, in the dead of.nighf*and wiffi camera in hand, was on a mission. He was going to take pictures of student artwork to prove' that they were learning anti-American A garbage. His attire conveyed the impression that he was on official business. But his findings ended up not in the hands of town or school officials — who requested them but were refused by Mott — but in the possession of community members frothing at the mouth to fire Treece, turn out the entire school board and defeat the high school budget, which they did a few weeks later. Oh, and the "evidence" also turned up on R ush Lim baugh's Web site, where it is now Exhibit A in The Decline of America at the moist hands of Vermont’s nefarious “liberals.” What do the pictures show? One can wade through Limbaugh's site — hip boots are recommended — and find a photo of the classroom door, with its "Impeach Bush” bumper sticker and sev eral others of a liberal bent, like "Goddess Bless the World." Another poster presents President Bush with duct tape over his mouth. There are references to two more student works, but you have to become a member of the Web site to gain access to those. Somehow, I couldn't find it within myself to join. To its credit, the community has not taken this lying down. A lot of people are outraged by M ott’s skulking like Golum in other people’s business, by the obvious ly planned duplicity by which he gained entry to Treece's classroom. Others defend him for exposing a situation whereby an adult was, in their view, undermining the patriotic values that ought to be imparted in our public schools. Some, including people who are uncomfortable with the way he went about things, ask us to excuse Rogue , O F F T H E TRACK »

Curses, Foiled Again while Ashlie Williams, 20, was writing a check for $259.17 to pay for groceries at a store in New Orleans, cashier Gennifer Robinson noticed that the brown check book and the distinctive Looney Tunes background on the checks looked just like the ones she had in her purse when it was stolen five days earlier. Her suspicions were confirmed when Williams presented iden tification. "She handed me my own dri ver's license," Robinson said. She told Williams to wait while she went to get a manager's approval, then called Jefferson Parish sheriff's deputies.

Reverse Psychology Looking to change the government's 40-year policy of punishing Fidel Castro's communist regime by banning Americans from visit ing Cuba, a bipartisan group of lawmakers introduced legislation to punish Castro by lifting the travel ban and flooding the country with Americans. "If you want to bring the winds of change and democratic values to Cuba, our best ambassadors are Americans, traveling by the hundreds of thousands to Cuba," said Rep. Bill Delahunt, D-Massachusetts, a sponsor of the "Export Freedom to Cuba Act." More than 50 members of the House sponsored the measure, and 10 members of the Senate sponsored a similar bill.

Hsueh and his wife shared their experience with a number of infertile couples, and four other women conceived. He added that his restaurant has received so many orders for mouse testicles that they are now in short supply.

Innovation in Action Faced with a shortage of surgical masks for protection against the deadly SARS virus, villagers in southern Taiwan have begun strapping bras to their faces. A small factory in the village south of Tainan is producing the makeshift masks by having workers cut standard brassieres in two and sew on extra straps.

Poor Folks' Mile-High Club

In the three months since the Department of Homeland Security advised Americans to stock up on duct tape in anticipation of a possible terrorist attack, law-enforcement agencies in the Philadelphia area reported a string of violent crimes using duct tape. The Philadelphia Daily News said that at least seven crimes have been duct-tape related. They range from the body of an armless man found with his legs bound with duct tape to a woman accused of wrapping her foster children in duct tape.

Belgian women jeered a group of Canadian male strippers because all they could see were the men's heads. Dieter Broodhaers, one of the organizers of the performance by the Creative Male Innovation group at a community center in Tongeren, admitted having made a mis take when he built the stage only a few inches high, causing most of the 500 women in the audience to complain they couldn't see what they had come for. "I couldn't tell if they were stripping or not," Brigitte Truien, 43, told the newspaper Het Laatste Nieuws. "Only the people in the front rows saw them pulling off their clothes."

infertile couples conceived successfully by eating dishes containing the sperm-pro ducing organs. The craze began in the southern county of Pingtung when a bull dozer driver, identified as Hsueh Ting-fu, and his wife conceived their long-awaited baby. The newspaper United Daily News reported that the couple learned about the benefits of mouse testicles from a friend, who took them to a local restaurant to taste a dish made from the organs. They promptly bought some 13 pounds of raw mouse testicles at the restaurant and ate them daily for more than a month until the wife became pregnant. Restaurant owner Lin Chia-ho told the paper that

After receiving a report that someone was yelling on top of a water tower at 3 o'clock in the morning, police in Slidell, Louisiana, arrived at the scene and used a loudspeaker to try to make contact with whoever was on the tower. When they got no response, they started up the ladder. About the same time, a couple started down. Police met them about 215 feet above ground, escorted them down and placed John Meyers, 44, and Brenda Orme, 45, under arrest. The couple told

police they climbed the tower because they wanted to have sex "on top of the world."

Bed Ridden Authorities disclosed that a 15-year-old patient at the University of Michigan C.S. M ott Children's Hospital called an escort service for sex during his hospital stay. The escort came to the hos pital, where she and the boy engaged in sex somewhere other than his hospital room. The university's Department of Public Safety reported that a hospital employee called police when they over heard the boy and the escort negotiating fees after the sex act occurred. "It's a bizarre tale," police Capt. Joe Piersante said. "I've never heard anything exactly like this before." High Times The latest drug craze in India's Gujarat state is scorpion stings. The Times o f India reported that affluent resi dents drive to tribal areas near the coastal town of Bharuch, where scorpions abound, and pay 150-to 200 rupees to have a native vendor put a scorpion on their body. Users say that after the initial pain, the venom produces an illusory, floating feeling. "You won't die," a vendor named Nathu told the paper, although he insists that customers pay him before they are stung. • After a motorcyclist hit one of a dozen cows that wandered onto Interstate 95 near Hobe Sound, Florida, investigators discovered that someone had cut the barbed-wire fence enclosing the cows' pas ture. They pointed out that there has been a problem in the area in recent years with people cutting fences where cattle are graz ing to get to the psychedelic mushrooms that grow around the cow manure.

The Neel World lice Neel was a people-painter, celebrat ed for her socio-psychological approach to portraiture. Her models reveal them selves — and their place in the world— via gaze, gesture, skin tone and clothing. She drew her subjects from all walks of life. “I always loved the most wretched and the working class,” Neel wrote, “but then I also loved the most effete and most elegant.” That democratic approach lives on through her descendents, who chose the newly renovated Firehouse Gallery in Burlington for a new exhibit of her work that opens Friday. The Whitney Museum of American Art hosted her last retrospec tive, in 2000. “She’s not really a local artist,” Burlington City Arts Director Doreen Kraft says of Neel, who is con sidered one of the most important artists of the 20th century. “But since she spent some time in Vermont, and her family still lives here, we certainly like to lay a

little claim to her.” Neel lived most of her life in Manhattan. It was a largely Bo hemian existence marked by remarkable productivity as well as poverty, bad boyfriends and nervous breakdowns. But for the last 15 years she worked out of a studio on her sons Lamoille County farm. She was buried there when she died in 1984. Kraft met Neel’s daughter-inlaw, Ginny, through Billy Mauer, a Stowe resident, Burlington landlord and major supporter of Burlington City Arts. When Kraft popped the question about a Queen City show, Mauer followed up. “He wanted very much to have her work shown here,” Ginny Neel explains, “so the people of Burlington could see” it. Visitors will also get a sense of her living legacy. Neel’s 28-year-old granddaughter Elizabeth curated “Alice Neel: Women Drawn,” which examines drawing as the driving force in Neel’s depictions — in this case, sketches and paintings of females. She grew up making art next to her famous grandmother. “Alice’s work was everywhere. Her presence was so strong. She gave me a set of paints when I was little. We’d set up our easels along side each other.” Looking critically at Neel’s work was equally eye-opening for Elizabeth, a New York resident who attended art school after graduating from Br<5wn. Her articulate essay in the exhibit catalogue is professional and personal. She writes, “Alice’s intensity and commit ment to the process of drawing made watching her paint a particularly mesmer izing experience. In what seemed like a trance, Alice would build her sitters on ► L

the foundation of her drawing, turning a flat, empty surface into a theater of vis ceral movement and color. The vibration produced by her often blue contour lines against depictions of flesh and fabric makes her images buzz coloristically and spatially in a remarkable way.” . . . Clark Derbes had his own vision for those gray, graffiti-tagged metal boxes attached to traffic lights in Burlington. This spring the 24-year-old skateboarder got the goahead from the Department of Public Works to transform them into four-sided murals as a means of discouraging vandal ism. But after he completed a couple of cartoony creations, Burlington City Arts shut him down. “They said if anybody wants to do that, it has to go through them,” says Derbes, embittered by what he calls “elitist arts politics.” The recent Louisiana transplant laments, “It was going on. It was happening. Zero bureau cracy. Zero bullshit.” Indeed, Burlington City Arts does have a Public Art Com mittee that convenes to review public art proposals. “This is something a lot of people are involved in,” says BCA Director Doreen Kraft, noting several cit izens inquired whether City Arts was involved in the box-painting project. Derbes says he sought the BCA seal of approval, but no one got back to him. Kraft insists she never got a message. But “with so much going on,” she says, osten sibly referring to the Discover Jazz Festival, the Alice Neel exhibit, the upcoming Battery Park Concert Series and ongoing capital campaign to finish the top floors of the Firehouse, “you have to push us a little bit these days.”

IN BRIEF IDX Systems made The New York Times Sunday — and the mention wasn’t in the financial pages. An article in the “ideas and trends” sec tion of the paper credits one of the com pany’s technical trainers for coining the term “spam.” According to “Spamology,” which chronicles the rise of elec tronic junk mail, Joel K. "Jay" Furr used the term in 1993 to describe the “inadvertent repeated posting of a mes sage to a Usenet newsgroup.” Sounds downright quaint today, when only an act of Congress can staunch the flow of penis-enlargement ads to your “person al” computer. Furr didn’t return phone calls to his South Burlington office. Maybe we should have emailed . . . Merrill Jarvis may have been thinking outside the box office when he booked John O'Brien s new movie for two weeks in downtown Burlington. Independent film is a notoriously tough sell. But Nosey Parker outgrossed every other picture at The Roxy last weekend, including Bruce Almighty. God willing, the Vermont-made flick will have legs as long around as its predecessor, Man With a Plan. (Z)

THE PUZZLE

• As you can guess from her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre dict. Her preferences change from one week to the next. This week, as always, the things she likes (shown in CAPITAL letters) all follow a secret rule. Can you figure out what it is? (Note: Fickle Fannie likes words. 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.) "A rolling stone gathers no moss," Fannie announced PLATITUDlNOUSLY. There is no LIMIT to her desire for Belgian chocolate and Black Russians. One tim e she spent an hour trying to th in k of a synonym for SYNONYM. ACROBATICS are not her strong suit, but she once did the so-called Indian's Leap. Witnesses thought surely the feat would be a prelude to her EPITAPH. On Mondays, Fannie and the members of The SKINFLICKS Club show home movies. When she visits the Russian section of Montreal, she has to rely on a POLYGLOT. Fannie is OVERSENSITIVE about the noises she makes after eating garbanzos.

Booty Call

he first few weeks of May found me driving my ass off. It was the tail end of the college year, and the students were in full party mode. The graduating seniors in particular were hell-bent on squeezing every blessed drop out of college life before it ended. For many of them, this meant hitting the bars and clubs every night. Having experienced this spring phenomenon annually since Ronnie took the White House, I’ve streamlined my advice to this: Pace yourself. It’s nice to be ambulatory when your parents arrive for Graduation Day. Taking a final spin through downtown at three in the morning after another night of student-mania, I was relieved to see two local men flagging me down from

Suddenly, th e d isem b o d ied arm sh o t o u t an d grabbed Tommy by h is lap el, p u llin g h im in to th e tra ile r. the curb in front of Finnigans Pub. As several college bars have closed over the last couple of years — including the most-storied Last Chance and Chickenbone — the dislodged students have infil trated, if not entirely taken over, a num ber of gin mills that had traditionally served the local trade. Finnigans has escaped that fate, and for good reason — this is a joint for serious drinkers. The chance student who inadvertently wan ders in isn’t going to last five minutes. I pulled over, and the taller, skinnier guy with dark rings under his eyes flicked a cigarette onto the street and climbed in the back. His buddy, a somewhat younger and fresher-faced man, got in next to me. Typically, the shotgun-seat customer delivers the destination, but this guy just sat there, apparently preoccupied about something. "I’m going to Rose Street," came the froggy-throated direction from the back. "And when you drop me, could you take Twinkle Toes here over to Winooski? I got the fare covered." "Roger Wilco," I replied, pulling out onto College Street. A nice little double to finish up the night, I thought to myself. "I’m not going to Winooski, Duke," my seatmate called out over his shoulder. "Oh, jeez, Tommy," Duke replied, let ting out a series of wheezing coughs. "Please don’t tell m e..." "After you drop this old fart on Rose," Tommy continued, now talking to me, "take me up to Westbury Trailer Park — you know, on Kellogg Road." "You never give up," Duke said. "Is that the deal? Besides the fact that it’s three friggin’ o’clock in the morning, in case you haven’t noticed." Tommy didn’t rejoin. The dude clearly did not have to answer to the guy in the

back if he didn’t want to. Instead, he began to slowly and deliberately pivot in his seat. When he was face-to-face with Duke, Tommy shot him a wide, full toothed grin. This gesture came off as something between facetious and gen uine. I couldn’t quite read it, though it was more playful than apologetic. In the rear-view, I watched as Duke shook his head and made a low, whistling sound. Tommy’s smile was unflinching, though, and finally Duke broke into a smile himself. "Well, I suppose," Duke said, "a man’s got to do what a man’s got to do." "Now you’re talking, Brother Duke," Tommy replied. We dropped Duke off at his house on Rose Street, then headed across Riverside towards Winooski and Severance Road. Along the way, Tommy performed a series of small grooming maneuvers — tucking in his shirt, brushing back his hair, check ing his breath with a cupped hand. We came up through Sunny Hollow' and I took the right on Severance. As the road curved, it turned into Kellogg and we came upon the trailer park. Westbury is a step above any other trailer park I’ve seen in Vermont. As a rule, the houses are quite substantial and nicely landscaped, the park roads all well paved. Tommy directed me to a trailer with clean, white aluminum siding, positioned perpendicular to the road. I pulled into the front parking area behind a red Mustang. I deduced that the car belonged to the woman of the house by virtue of the bumper sticker, which read: “Question: What do you call that disgusting thing at the end of a penis? Answer: A man.” Handing me a 20, Tommy asked me to wait a couple minutes to see if he got in. I watched him take the front steps and pause in front of the door. He then brushed off his clothes, took a deep breath and knocked. Immediately a light appeared in the back room. I couldn’t see the door itself from where I was parked, but I knew it had opened when light suddenly flooded Tommy and he began talking. After about 20 seconds, an arm shot out of the doorway. Its forceful gesturing went on for two or three minutes, and Tommy kept his head down, nodding every so often — apparendy acceding to everything coming his way. At one point, I thought he glanced ever so slighdy to the side and shot me a subtle nod. Finally, the arm disappeared, and Tommy looked up and threw his interrogator the big, goofy grin I’d seen earlier with Duke. In that moment I realized: This guy is not without his charm. Suddenly, the disembodied arm shot out and grabbed Tommy by his lapel, pulling him into the trailer. The last thing I saw as he slid through the door was his hand reaching back, signaling a thumb’s-up. Goodfior Tommy, I thought. Given the bumper sticker, I didn’t think he had a prayer. ®

Dear Cecil, I'll get right to the point. Why is the Islamic world so backward and ignorant? A thousandyears ago, we hear, Arab culture put Europe in the shade, with great achievements in mathematics, astronomy and architecture. Now it all seems to have boiled doivn to sadists andfanatics. I know this is a lot to explain in a column where they don't even let you jump to an inside page, Cecil but give it a whiz: Where did our Muslim brothers go wrong? — Bud Clarke

S e e

/ //

o r in g

Let's watch the glib generalizations, Bud. The Islamic world isn't uniformly "backward and ignorant." (And these days less than a fifth of its population is Arab.) Among the rela tively nonignorant, nonbackward parts are Turkey and Malaysia, which, while not without their problems, have made considerable strides toward what Americans under stand as modernity. But I'll grant you that those countries are exceptions. I'll grant you another point, too: Throughout the Crusades, which began in 1095 when Pope Urban II called upon Christians to wrest the Holy Land from Muslim con trol, one side might reasonably have been described as civi lized, tolerant and progressive, while the other was by and large a bunch of backward, ignorant, bloodthirsty fanatics. Hint: It wasn't the Muslims who, upon capturing Jerusalem in 1099, gleefully slaughtered everyone there. Today Islam claims some 1.2 billion adherents, most liv ing in a broad swath stretching from the Atlantic coast of north Africa eastward to Indonesia and the Philippines. (For comparison, there are 1.9 billion Christians worldwide, most of them Catholics.) While abject poverty is rare in the Muslim world, the overwhelming majority of the popula tion is just getting by. Take, for example, the 280 million people, the great majority of them Muslim, who live in the 22 Middle Eastern and African nations that make up the Arab League. According to a 2002 UN report by a group of Arab scholars, 65 million adults in these countries are illiterate, two-thirds of them women; the 1999 gross domestic prod uct of the entire Arab League was less than that of Spain; for the past decade average annual growth in per capita income in the Middle East has been the lowest in the world

outside sub-Saharan Africa; the 15 percent unemployment rate is one of the highest in the developing world; and Arabs have translated as many books in the last thousand years as the Spanish now do in one. v Some Western observers would have you believe that this is all because of an Islamic or Arabic culture that prizes bluster over substance. One influential book, Raphael Patai's The Arab M ind (1983), suggests that the Arab predilection for overstated rhetoric (remember the absurd pronouncements of Iraqi information minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahaf?) is rooted in the floweriness of the Arabic language. Nonsense — the inflated talk can be more readily explained as an attempt to compensate for powerlessness. Similarly, it's irresponsible to insist that some inherent qual ity of the Islamic religion perpetuates ignorant fanaticism. Islam is much like Christianity, in that you can find some thing in it to justify almost any fool notion. The truth is that the present gap between the fortunes of the Islamic world and those of the West isn't a result so much of Muslim failure as European success. For roughly a thousand years, from the death of Muhammad in 632 to the breaking of the Ottoman siege of Vienna in 1683, Islamic rulers vied with Christian ones for dominance in the Mediterranean. In the end the Muslim powers lost because the circumstances of empire didn't compel them to develop their human resources the way the Europeans did — they were outmanned, outwitted and outgunned. The decline of the Ottomans (who were Muslims but not Arabs) is an instructive example. In 1453 they captured Constantinople and renamed it Istanbul, in the process eradicating the last vestige of the Roman Empire. They built a mighty empire of their own and intimidated Europe for 200 years. But in the end their grand edifice suffered the fate of all empires — corruption, internal division and decay. The European nations of the day had greater access to natural resources to start with and were obliged by the fiercely competitive nature of European politics to constant ly innovate. As early as 1492 you could see the shape of things to come: not only did Ferdinand and Isabella finance Columbus' voyages to America, they expelled the Moors from Spain. By the 18th century it was clear that the Ottomans (and the Muslim world in general) were in decline. The Islamic response was to turn inward. Reformist Muslim sects argued for a return to tradition, and what had once been a tolerant religion grew more and more conservative and xenophobic. European colonization of Muslim lands in the 19th century increased resentment of the West, which in turn contributed to Muslim isolationism in the postcolonial era. By the time oil was discovered it was too late — Muslim (and particu larly Arab) countries lacked the ability to exploit their own wealth and had to rely on Europeans to do it for them. Oil money enabled small elites to become Westernized, but despite a sharp increase in literacy in the past few decades, it's fair to say that in many countries the Islamic masses remain comparatively backward and ignorant. All of which is an object lesson, I guess. What did our Muslim brothers do wrong? Nothing. They just stopped doing a lot of the stuff they'd gotten right, and the world passed them by. CECIL ADAMS

BY GRETCHEN GILES

C Y B E R S P A C E O D D IT IE S

Worlc Wide Wed ecently I entered the seemingly innocent word “wedding” into Google.com. The search engine served up 10.7 million links. Having perused just a tiny portion of them, I am now in full-blown panic. Yep, I’m tying the knot. In less than three weeks. With the average American couple spending $22,000 on their nuptials and accompanying honeymoons, heaps of competitors out there are hoping for a piece of the buck. Indeed, divorce, including alimony and all the rest, seems like an inexpensive, gloriously straightforward deal when you consider what goes into getting married in the first place. But the worst of it isn’t the money. It’s the time. According to online advisors at WeddingChannel.com, I am a full year behind in preparing to host a small, at-home, buffet-style wedding. I have no hair appointments, no spa plans, no showers or parties lined up, and nary a flower girl to speak of. I have not considered napkin colors, let alone napkins, though I’m generally in favor of them. I haven’t thought of any of these things, in part because I’ve done this dance before (albeit at the county courthouse), and in part because I’m beginning this journey towards marriage as an educated adult who’s already lived with the groom-elect for many years. W hat’s the big deal? I reasoned. Have family and friends over, dress up the kids, make sure the bathroom’s presentable, vow, kiss

L IN K S Wedding Channel: www.weddingchannel.com/ Modern Bride: www.modernbride.com Wedding Links Galore: www.weddinglinksgalore.com/sites/index.htm l Bliss Magazine: www.blissweddings.com Bride Magazine's Real Weddings: www.modernbride.com/realweddings/ Peter and Sue's Wedding Tips: w ww .naples.net/~nfn02644/weddingtips.htm l Celebrate Our Lives: www.celebrateourlives.com Chris & Nic's Wedding: www.jeansphotography.com/wedding/info.htm and drink champagne. Fun! Simple! Easy! My goodness me. Wouldn’t it be pretty to tbir^k so, as Hemingway might say. Because now that I’ve realized what I was for getting to even know about, nothing seems fun or simple about a wed ding, at all. And who has time to even consider what it means in a, you know, soulful and spiritual, death-doyou-part kind of way? Which brings me back to those 10.7 million links. There’s a lot to choose from out there in the ampedup world of wedding cyberspace, and the calmest bride can easily slip into an abyss of terror if she tries to look at too many options. Suffice it to say that such sites as the Wedding Channel, which offers more than 30,000 photographic ideas for dress, food and hair, and Modern Bride, which is less terrifying in some respects and more so in others, can

be invaluable organizing resources. One can find local services of all kinds, usevljiudget planners, and keep an ongoing diary of tasks that can be discreetly updated while at work. But overwhelmment lurks every where. Wedding Links Galore, for example, recommends almost 7000 Web sites for everything from avail able bands (535) to photographers (1224) to favors (a manageable six — making me highly in favor of favors). Perhaps worst of all, swimming through all this Special Day ad copy are constant reminders that this is something we gals have been dream ing of since childhood. I have never dreamt of such a thing, and it’s still enough to make me weep. In search of what its title promises, I turn to Bliss Magazine. In its forum section I see my people: “SecondTime Brides.” I jump to that section only to be greeted by the electronic

salutation, “No topics found.” Great. Modern Bride tries to help by fea turing ordinary couples from around the U.S. at their nuptials. Surely I could lift some of their ideas. But the fear level ratchets up even higher as I read about “theme” weddings, see an uncanny number of guests having to go treasure hunting, and gape at sticky mojito fountains. How could “ordinary couples” afford this? The head spins. This is why it’s a pleasant diver sion — when I should be comparing silk peau de sole gowns — to gawk at 4 really ordinary weddings, such as the * one hosted by Peter and Sue Dutton. Peter, who has a Princeton Uni versity email address, rails against what he calls the “Evil Wedding Industry” — one that adds $20 to the price of any nondescript item by gilding it with the adjective “wed ding.” He also reassuringly lists all the many things that went wrong on their “perfect day”: It rained; Sue’s heirloom cake knife was misplaced; the band blew an amp; and, oh yeah, Sue’s grandmother fainted at the reception and had to be quietly removed to the nearest hospital. I’m somewhat calmed by Sue’s cream-fed face and Peter’s strafe of the EWI until I realize that what I’m perusing is the newest must-have wed ding item: Your very own wedding Web site. Celebrate Our Lives is one

company that offers such a service, allowing you to shill for gifts, post photos, update guests and share your wedding afterwards with the six bil lion of us who were unable to attend. While this 21st-century “necessi ty” seems like just another thing to plan, worry over and pay for, I have to admit I passed a pleasant hour looking at Chris and Nic — that is, the spot where Chris proposed, their reception menu, their vows and inte rior shots of their new home. While they’re not Celebrate Our Lives cus tomers themselves, these nice people had a really lovely ceremony in Memphis last September and posted it all on their Web site. I wish my new unknown friends the best. OK — I wish I were them, and already done with all this. But I’m not, and my former lack of wedding overload now seems like a quaint and innocent past, even though it was just Monday. With so much to choose from, so many voices clamoring for your few bridal bucks and fleeting time to plan, the caveat remains: Use online sources if you must, but, as with a fiance — it’s best to choose just one and stick to it. ® Web Feat can be contacted in sickness and in health at webdfeat@ yahoo.com

Officer Mott because “he spent 30 years in the military.” I, for one, don’t get the connection. Unfortunately, one hears little concern expressed for the stu dents whose work Mott pirated ahd exposed to derision. Like Treece’s students, M ott’s former students from his days on the ROTC faculty speak highly of his dedication and decency. And M ott’s target obviously was not the students so much as their teacher. But to get to Treece, Mott and those who congratu late him have climbed over the very same young people we claim in this society to love, honor, respect and protect. Talk about social evolution! Kids in this community will now grow up having had the experience of the government — in the person of Officer Mott — slinking around their thoughts, surrepti tiously collecting the evidence, and exposing them to all rightthinking people as enemies of the state. Officer Mott has planted an idea in the minds of these Vermont students that tells them their opinions will be moni tored, and their acceptance — perhaps even their safety — in American society will depend on their conforming to publicly condoned thought. Unless this trend is corrected, that’s how these kids will enter the 21st i

Speaking of corrections, none has been forthcoming from town and police department leaders, who refer to M ott’s transgression as a “personnel matter” that has been “handled internally.” That's not good enough. This is like Dick Nixon’s plumbers being set free to plumb again. In candid moments, town officials are said to complain that “it’s hard to find good officers.” Apparently so. And guess who pays them? We do. The Thought Police dine at the public trough. Taxpayers cover John M ott’s salary. I’m often moved to make a similar complaint about George W. Bush, who’s taking my money and giving it to Halliburton. But at least, in Bush’s case, it’s true that a sizable minority of my countrymen and women voted for the guy.

A Matter of Balance? — As Peter Freyne commented in this space last week, it’s the sea son when Vermont legislators get out of Montpelier to make way for tourists, who stop by the busload to view the smallest state capital in the U.S. Before leaving, the pols disposed of a slew of bills, some obviously of greater merit than others. They got the budget passed, and it is notable that Vermont will have a balanced budget. Beautifully balanced? Well, no — not when low-income Vermont seniors will have to pay more for Medicaid.

But when Howard Dean encounters the brickbats sure to come his way from political rivals on the national scene — “Vermont,” they’ll sneer, “is where they let gay people get

When Howard Dean encoun ters th e brick bats sure to come his way from political rivals on th e national scene, he can counter: "Vermont is where we balance our budgets." married” and “Vermont is where they throw stones at people in uniform” — he can counter: “Vermont is where we balance our budgets.” y. If it’s still “the economy, stu pid” in 2004, that ought to pack some cachet. School funding got a make over, boosting the sales tax to ease the burden on the property tax. The sales tax, of course, is regressive, because it takes a big ger bite out of the Spaulding High School janitor’s pocket to pay the extra tax on a gallon of laundry detergent than it does for, say, a hospital president. T he legislation also includes a two-tiered property-tax valua tion and an increase in the block grant given to towns for their schools. But frankly, I’m just too dumb to understand the whole thing. What worries me is that I happen to know some of the folks in the Legislature, and they’re not the brightest candles in the window, either. I just have to hope they got it right. But considering the leads that haye sunk every other education financing system in memory, I have my doubts. O n the other hand, we may finally be out of the woods on school funding, because NOW W E’VE GO T POWERBALL! Folks won’t hesitate to vote against school budgets — or complain about them without quite getting around to the polls on election day — but they’ll toss their money after fantasy any day of the week. And with that irritatingly moralistic Howard Dean out of the way, the state is only too happy to scrape a little off the top to put toward the schools. W hat a cow ardly way for government to raise revenues.

\ f / Finally, its worth noting that the Legislature pulled a Neil Armstrong variation this year. In the matter of renewable energy, our legislators in 2003 took what seems to have been a giant, painstaking step for them but was just a small step toward a smarter, safer, energy policy for Vermont. Not to quibble — a step is a step. And this step is particularly welcome after last year, when the House had a truly good renewable energy bill in its hands that had been passed overwhelmingly by the Senate, but then, one by one, cut the legs out from under it. Finally, “industry'’ (read: IBM) was able to topple it completely with just a nudge. Big Blue suggested that any legislation with even a whiff of price-increase for elec tricity would be a death knell for Vermont industry. Last year’s bill would have — I’ll keep this short — promoted 1) “green pricing ”: utilities let interested customers pay a little extra for power, the added money going to support renew able-energy projects somewhere on the planet; 2) renewable portfolio standards: utilities would have been required to buy some tiny percentage of their wholesale power from a “green” producer; 3) group net metering: people get together and buy a wind or solar genera tor and run the meter back ward, sending power into the utility’s system when produc tion is abundant; 4) use of Vermont’s roughly $750,000 of oil-overcharge money to offset some of the costs to small com panies of retailing wind and solar systems — a subsidy, if you will, not unlike the enor mous subsidies received by the oil industry; and 5) a sales tax exemption for solar hot-water systems. This year, renewable-energy advocates clearly corralled their ambitions. The bill, birthed Caesarian-like on the final day of the session, allows the Public Service Board to cut a little slack for utilities that do a good job promoting energy efficiency, and politely asks the PSB to study renewable-energy portfo lio standards. Companies may voluntarily offer green pricing programs. And that oil-overcharge money that’s been idly sitting around will be put to use studying the future of the hydroelectric dams on the Connecticut River and support ing a few small green systems. Nobody has to do anything, which is all somehow very British and mannerly. Gov. James Douglas thinks it’s peachy. These changes represent one small step for Vermonters toward safety and self-sufficien cy, even as our president runs around Europe this week greas ing the skids for further invasion of the world’s oil reserves. ®

ing Arthur Flour in Norwich has been owned by Five generations of the same family since its found ing in 1790. But it \^on’t be much longer. Frank E. Sands II, the current chairman of the board, says he plans to make the $35 million company entire ly worker-owned within the next few years. He’s already sold 70 percent of King Arthur’s stock to STORY the firm’s employees. KEVIN J. Bill Carris inherited a 51-year-old industrial spool KELLEY manufacturing company in Rutland. Its 550 workers T he V erm ont — who toil in five states as well as in Mexico and E m p lo y ee Brazil — are halfway to their owners goal of making O w nersh ip the business 100 percent employee-owned. C o n feren ce is Four years after starting Gardener’s Supply in T hursday, J u n e 5, 1983, Will Raap began selling pieces of the busi 9 p .m . - 4 p .m . at t h e R a d isso n ness to his employees. They now own 30 percent H o te l in B u r lin g to n . of the company’s stock and also get a cut of the I n fo , ca ll profits. Perhaps not coincidentally, Burlington8 6 1 -6 6 1 1 . based Gardener’s has become one of the most suc W illia m G reider's cessful businesses in its field in the country. fo r th c o m in g b o o k is The Soul of These three Vermont companies are in the van Capitalism: Opening guard of a movement that could transform the Paths to a Moral U.S. economy, if enough Americans ever become Economy. aware of, and accept, an idea that may seem down right un-American — socialist, even. “I’m under no illusions about how hard it will be to convince people that this is a sound course for the country,” says William Greider, national affairs correspondent for The Nation magazine and keynote speaker at a conference on employee own ership taking place in Burlington this Thursday. “Its certainly a radical change for capitalism,” Greider continues. “The idea that yQu’re supposed to work for somebody else and take orders and not object or criticize your boss is tens of thousands of years old. ” By contrast, it’s been a mere 25 years since Greider developed what he calls “a low-grade obsession” with the concept of worker ownership. He picked it up from economist Louis Kelso, who invented the employee stock-ownership plan (ESOP) in the 1950s. Noting the movement’s comparative youth, Greider says he’s “fairly opti mistic that it will succeed in the long term.” Vermont is already home to about 30 compa nies that are at least partly owned by their employ ees. And although that’s a tiny fraction of the esti mated 11,000 U.S. firms with ESOPs, advocates of worker ownership say the idea could snowball in the Green' Mountain State.

I;;:/- _

“The main reason it hasn’t happened to a greater extent here js because most people aren’t aware of worker ownership as an alternative,” says Don Jami son, co-director of the Vermont Employee Owner ship Center, which is presenting the conference this week. “Vermont is fertile ground because worker ownership fits with the state’s values,” adds Greider, who has had a second home in Arlington since 1996. Vermont values are what led Dartmouth gradu ate Frank Sands to choose the western side of the Connecticut River when he relocated King Arthur Flour from Boston in 1984. He says he considered moving the company to New Hampshire but decid ed on Vermopt because “it has more to offer in terms of lifestyle and social consciousness.” Workerowned King Arthur has gone on to become the sixth-fastest-growing company in the state. Some studies suggest that businesses with

many inequities in a system that separates employ ees from ownership.” , By “inequities,” Carris says he means “CEOs who get mega-rich and companies like Enron that rip people off.” He is also motivated by the belief that “when people spend 40-plus hours a week at work — which is a big piece of their lives — more has to be involved than just asking for their hands and their minds.” Frank Sands of King Arthur offers a similar but more idiosyncratic view — one derived, he says, from bitter experience. “One of the biggest drawbacks of non-employee ownership is that you get a them-versus-us mental ity. Workers who act like owners don’t count the hours and haggle over rules like labor unions do, which is what I saw when the company was based in Boston.”

“T h e idea that y o u ’re s u p p o s e d to w o rk for s o m e b o d y e ls e a n d take o rd e rs a n d not object o r criticize y o u r b o s s is te n s of t h o u s a n d s of y e a rs old.” WI LLI AM ESOPs perform more profitably than do compara ble companies without employee-ownership plans. Growth rates are said to be even faster for firms that encourage democratic decision-making in addition to establishing ESOPs. Carris Reels is run by a steering committee with half of its members appointed by management and half elected by the employees. “We keep to the highest levels of professionalism in operating the company,” Bill Carris says. “It’s not always an easy process, but I have a lot of confidence that it will work out fine.” A worker-run business functions more efficiently and thus more profitably than its competitors, he maintains. Doesn’t such a company structure suggest that Carris has strayed far from the capitalist line? Isn’t he some sort of radical? “I’m a strong believer in the profit motive,” Carris replies, “but I do feel that there are too i <• V

Most ESOPs are put into place by private owners who want to ensure that a firm will remain independent and locally based after they leave the scene. Also motivating the move are the tax breaks available to companies that sell a certain portion of their, stock to employees. ESOPs typically take the form of trusts to which companies make annual contributions, with stocks then allocated to individual employee accounts within the trust. ESOPs mainly function as retire ment funds; only in some cases are employees able to cash out before they retire — and that usually entails a waiting period as well as a financial penalty. By itself, an ESOP does not guarantee that a workforce will feel less alienated than it might in a firm with traditional hierarchical ownership. Putting the employees in charge also does not ensure that a company will become or remain prof itable, as the case of United Airlines demonstrates. i >j i

United’s workers had acquired a majority of the company’s shares by the year 2000, but the carrier went bankrupt anyway. That experience is often cited by skeptics as proof that ESOPs don’t work as advertised. But defenders of the plans argue that United’s ESOP was poorly structured and was not accompanied by the changes in corporate culture that would have made employees feel more com mitted to the company and to one another. ESOP advocates also point to companies such as Anheuser-Busch and Procter & Gamble that have given their employees minority ownership shares and have remained successful. Setting up an ESOP doesn’t mean that a com pany automatically becomes democratic, says Cindy Turcot, chief operating officer at Gardener’s Supply and chair of the Vermont Employee Ownership Center. “It’s not the same thing as a cooperative,” she points out. Dunbar Oehmig understands the difference. He’s in the process of transforming his small resi dential construction firm into a workers’ co-op. Oehmig started Red House Building in Burlington in 1995. It became so successful in its niche at the high end of the market that Oehmig began turning down work. Enticed by those unmet opportunities, some of his associates began thinking about starting their own small compa nies, Oehmig recounts. He was also plagued by the industry’s common problem of a high turnover rate among generally low-paid employees. Oehmig says his suggested solution of forming a co-op quickly gained the support of kindred spirits in his company. “There’s a fair number of overeducated people working in the trades,” says Oehmig, who has a master’s degree in American literature. He was drawn to the co-op model as a result of his work as a carpenter for a traditionally run building firm in Maine. “People there were bitter about the lack of say they had on day-to-day issues. They could see that one person was making a good living — kind of at the expense of every one else.” But even co-ops and the most democratically organized ESOPs can collapse amid shirking and bickering. They also cannot credibly claim to offer lifetime job security. Carris Reels went through a wrenching round

of layoffs ,and a plant closing recently. Dqe to the steep downturn in the manufacturing sector — and especially in the telecommunications field where Carris does most of its business — “there really was no other option for the company,” Bill Carris says. “The ESOP made no difference.” Employee ownership may be vastly superior to the standard set-up, but it’s no panacea for all eco nomic or workplace problems, Greider notes. In order for the new model to succeed, he says, “Workers have to change the way they think. And workers can make mistakes.” With employee ownership “there comes respon sibilities as well as rights for the workers,” notes Turcot of Gardener’s Supply. All the examples of “actually existing socialism” should suggest that high-minded alternatives to capitalism are not necessarily superior in practice. Greider and others do caution, however, that employee ownership is not synonymous with socialism. Under that system as it has functioned, “ownership belonged to the state, not to the work ers,” and they were treated at least as poorly as under capitalism, Greider says. For now, the challenge of changing the Ameri can economic paradigm falls mainly to writers like Greider and small groups like the Vermont Em ployee Ownership Center. VEOC operates on modest grants from the federal government and private foundations, but it has major ambitions. In addition to providing practical advice to compa nies interested in implementing ESOPs, the center has set itself the task of making the concept famil iar to ordinary Vermonters through events such as its “first annual” employee ownership conference. Greider envisions VEOC playing an even big ger role one day. The scarcity of jobs, particularly good-paying jobs, stands as an imposing obstacle to employee ownership in Vermont, he points out. Workers won’t feel motivated to get a stake in companies that pay them poorly and that lay them off in bad times. But an entity such as VEOC, he proposes, could establish an investment fund that would give small employee-owned businesses access to capital for expansion. “In my imagination,” Greider says, “you won’t have to wait for some benevolent CEO to say ‘I want to do this.’ You can use the power of capital to do it yourself.” ®

lesh-eating zombies are almost certain to beat literati in any battle for the souls of students in a Burlington College course called The Festival Experience. The kids will be able to meet revered director George Romero and watch his 1968 cult masterpiece, Night o f the Living Dead, when they travel to the Adirondacks next week for the fourth annual Lake Placid Film Forum. The event, which runs from June 11 to 15, presents explorations of cin ema history, compelling new indies and fascinating invited guests, with a, strong emphasis on the written word. Novelist Russell Banks is on the advi sory board along with fellow scribes Pete Hamill, Donald Westlake, Rick Moody, Joyce Carol Oates and North east Kingdom resident Howard Frank Mosher. But those aren’t necessarily the names that thrill young people. Barry Snyder, head of the colleges film department, is teaching his festivalfocused class for the second consecu tive year. He can recall a 2002 Saturday night scene outside the downtown Palace Theater, where peo ple costumed as Troma Studios’ schlock horror-movie characters snaked through the crowd: The Toxic Avenger, The Mad Cowboy and Sgt. Kabukiman NYPD inspired the ecstatic Vermonters to begin chanting “Tro-ma! Tro-ma! Tro-ma!” An intoxicating mix of the silly and the sublime, Lake Placid has been forced to tighten its belt this year after losing two major sponsors in the abysmal economic climate. “That was just when the war in Iraq hit and it all felt so pessimistic,” explains Kathleen Carroll, the Forum’s artistic director. “But the decision was to go on with the show.” The Forum has accomplished that with more streamlined programming at the Palace and in the nearby Hilton Hotel. The Center for the Arts, a

venue in previous years, has been dropped, “We have as many, if not more, films but fewer repeat screen ings,” says Carroll, a Manhattan-based former critic for The Daily News. “Altogether, though, it might create a little more excitement, because you can’t help but bump into people.” Those people are an eclectic bunch. Writer-director Alan Rudolph, whose deteriorating-marriage saga The Secret Lives o f Dentists is on tap, will receive a special tribute. He’ll be interviewed on stage by filmmaker brothers Michael and Mark Polish, phenoms whose Northfork — about a hydroelectric plant’s scheme to flood a small town — is also in the Lake Placid lineup. Actors Jennifer Jason Leigh, Debra Winger, Campbell Scott, Patricia Clarkson and James Tolkan, among others, are slated to attend. So is Joe Morton, who played the delightful Brother From Another Planet in 1984. He’ll be at the Forum with his direc torial debut, Sunday on the Rocks, about a group of thirtysomething women prone to drinking and soulsearching. It’s a world premiere. “Tlie O ’Briens are corning,” pro claims Carroll, although she’s referring to two Vermonters who are actually unrelated: John O ’Brien of Tunbridge and Bess O ’Brien of Peacham. His Nosey Parker and her Here Today will be screened at the Forum, which con tinues to foster close ties with the Green Mountain State. A crazy quilt of older fare should help fill in any programming gaps. Those with enough stamina for the 48-hour Movie Marathon will be treated to a plethora of “classics,” from Barbarella and Psycho to. The Matrix — not yet reloaded. It’s anyone’s guess, of course, but some of the schedule’s best bets might be: Camp, a sort of Fame-goes-to-thecountry tale directed by Tod Graff; The Heart o f Me, a romantic triangle

t e

NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD with Helena Bonham Carter, Olivia Williams and Paul Bettany; and Happy Here and Now, which centers on a woman who travels to New Orleans to look for her missing sister. Beautiful Kid, about the IrishAmerican inhabitants of a Bronx neighborhood, is a real grassroots effort by novice co-directors Colum McCann and Michael Carty. “A local plumber-poet gave them $4500 to get a digital video camera,” Carroll says. From New Zealand, Whale Rider depicts a Maori tribe’s reluctance to accept that an adolescent girl should inherit the leadership role that has

always gone to males. Valentin, which hails from Argentina, is the story of a 10-year-old boy trying to solve the problems of the dysfunctional adults in his life. Three films address the issue of incarceration: the narrative Civil Brand, and the documentaries Here Today and What I Want My Words to Do to You. Consequently, they will all feed into Drugs, Prisons and Social Issues, a June 13 panel. “We’ll even have a warden from a nearby peniten tiary,” Carroll notes. The topics for master classes and discussions will range from acting to

SUNSET TOWN casting to scoring soundtracks — a session that includes composer Carter Burwell, whose music graces quirky pictures such as Being John Malkovich. Some gatherings seem particularly provocative. On June 13, “Silence of the Lambs: Whatever Happened to Free Speech?” will examine perspectives on the nations First Amendment-bashing mood from authors Banks {Affliction), Frank McCourt {Angela’s Ashes) and Hamill, also an acclaimed journalist. A master class on screenwriting will benefit from the experiences of wordsmiths William Kennedfalron&eed) and Buck Henry, a man with a resume to die for. Literally. He adapted To Die For in 1995, only one of many stellar achieve ments in a long, impressive career. W ithout Buck Henry, what we think of as “the 60s” might never have hap pened — not really, but he’s the guy who gave us “plastics,” a memorable snippet of dialogue from his script for The Graduate. The pivotal 1967 black comedy offered an early take on the counterculture’s rejection of middle-class values. It spoke to a gener ation, thanks in part to songs by Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel on the sound track. People went to see the film over and over again. “I never thought it’d be particularly popular,” Henry recalls, during a phone interview from his New York City apart

ment. “I was in Europe when it came out. When I got home, I went to a movie the ater where The Graduate had already been playing for two or three months. The place was full. They were sitting in the aisles. ” He was astonished to hear the audience “doing the lines.” Coo coo cachoo, Mrs. Robinson. Henry, now 72, can look back on numerous triumphs. The son of a silentscreen actress, at age 16 he had a small role in Life With Father, a big Broadway hit. But the budding thespian yearned to be a writer as well, a goal that was nurt u l ^ when he attended Dartmouth College as an English major. After graduation in 1952, Henry was drafted into the Army during the Korean War and served in Germany — mostly as the ringleader of a repertory company per forming a musical comedy he had penned. “After the military, I slogged on for years,” he says of his show-biz aspirations. “I joined The Premise, an improv group. O ut of that, I was hired to write sketches for Steve Allen’s TV program in L.A. In the early 1960s New York was a hotbed of new talent, but a lot of us went West.” Henry moved back East a short time later for other television gigs: Garry Moore’s CBS variety show and “That Was The Week That Was,” NBC’s satirical review of the news. But Hollywood beck oned once again in 1964 thanks to an opportunity to partner with Mel Brooks

on developing a comic detective series. The Emmy-winning “Get Smart” was born. From that success, Henry’s segue to fea ture films came easily — perhaps too easi ly. “After The Graduate, I was spoiled; the next five scripts I wrote were immediately made,” he notes, referring to the likes of Catch-22, The Owl and the Pussycat, What’s Up, Doc? and The Day o f the Dolphin. “Then all that ground to a halt. It took another few years for things to pick up.” Although he continued acting — as the patent attorney for David Bowie’s inven tive extraterrestrial in The Man Who Fell to Earth, for example — Henry’s screenwrit ing assignments were suddenly on hiatus. Yet, along with Warren Beatty, he received an Oscar nomination for co-directing Heaven Can Wait in 1978. Directing wasn’t really in Henry’s blood, however. “I don’t have the ego for it,” he says. “And they get up so early. I’m not alive in the morning.” Henry doesn’t want to jinx his upcom

ing projects by talking about them but he admits to being “a lazy writer. It can take me forever to finish something. I use my acting jobs as an excuse.” While he’s widely admired as the quin tessential “hip” humorist, a designation enhanced by hosting “Saturday Night Live” 10 times, Henry demurs. “I’ve never been accused of that,” he claims. He also doesn’t consider himself a polit ical satirist. “I was always tagged with that, ever since ‘That Was The Week That Was,”’ Henry acknowledges. “I am a news junkie. Totally. But I’m not overtly politi cal.” And what does he think about rumors that satire is dead in the age of George W. Bush? “Even back in the time of Socrates or Aristotle, current events probably seemed to supercede art,” Henry suggests. “But there’ll always be new people to make fun of.” Even people who’ve passed on may be ripe for such skewering.

could not match. Oddly, what he neglects to mention is that along the way — from Ottawa to New York City to Middlebury, Vermont — Maclver became an artist. Heron Dance is filled with his peaceful, misty watercolors, every one of them a scene from nature, including, yes, herons. Though birds and animals, lakes, skies and trees are Maclver’s favored subjects, sometimes a human interloper — a canoeist, a camper — appears. The text — interviews, essays, poet ry and quotes from writers as diverse as Emily Dickenson, H.L. Mencken, Flannery O ’Connor and Joseph Campbell — suggests more than anything how complicated we humans make ourselves. Without being too preachy, it espouses a decluttered, close-tonature existence. The pictures enhance this idea by quietly and reverently honoring the wild. Maclver has donated hundreds of art works to nonprofits, particularly wilderness protection groups.

A former nature photographer, Maclver began teaching himself to draw and watercolor from books about a decade ago. “For months and months, I painted every day,” he says. “When I started Heron Dance, l began to put sketches and tiny paintings in the margins. Over the years, people have reacted more favorably to the art than the words.’'. And that explains in part Heron Dance, the gallery. With his wife Ann O ’Shaughnessy, Maclver is launching a small outlet for his paintings — not to mention limited-edi tion prints, note cards and other gift items — in Middlebury. The gallery, tucked in the Marble Works complex near Waterfront Video, opens with a reception this Saturday. O ’Shaughnessy, a former high school teacher and rock-gym manager, has been the creative director of Heron Dance, and an essayist and interviewer for the journal, since she and Maclver found each other three years ago. As a “word person” and outdoors enthusiast she had to be convinced that retail was the way to go. The words in Heron Dance “are a solace for people who feel like outcasts, who are trying to live values that aren’t real popular,” O ’Shaughnessy suggests. “But I’ve come to see the role of beauty, of honoring it in one’s life. The art strikes a chord with people because it’s soft and emo tive. It’s a strong representation of what we’re all about.” ' After years of “pouring heart and soul” into Heron Dance, the couple realized that, ironically, their efforts to grow and maintain the advertisement-free publication prevented them from living a simpler life themselves. “It’s been a real contradiction,” Maclver acknowledges. “I felt I had this message that was important to me and that I wanted to share. I sacrificed simplicity in order to do it.” That epiphany — and a reappearance of Maclver’s cancer —- led the couple to make some changes. Thus, the journal has been pared down to a newsletter, a smaller, less expensive option that can be sent out 10 to 12 times a year. The artwork, most priced modestly under $200, has found walls as well as Web space. Heron Dance — in print and pictures — provides the sole income for the couple, which O ’Shaughnessy calls “a gift. How many people get to do what they want,” she asks, “and be around beauty?” ®

Ju st Youth is one of Vermont’s best deterrents to juvenile crime. Can the state afford to let it close?

Hers was not a crime of passion. A crime of fashion was more like it. About a year ago, Marcie Nash walked out of Filene’s department store in Burlington with a bathing suit she didn’t need and never paid for. Nash, who was 15 at the time, had never been in trouble with the police before. She and her best friend thought shoplifting was “kind of like a game,” she now admits. But it was no game when a Burlington police officer showed up to handcuff her and take her down to the station. Nash was lucky. Rather than bringing her to family court on a juvenile delinquency charge, the officer referred the case to Just Youth, a project run by Spectrum Youth and Family Services of Burlington. Just Youth intervenes in petty juvenile offenses that would otherwise clog up a family court system that is already overbur dened. To qualify for Just Youth, offenders must be under 17 and have committed a minor, nonviolent crime such as vandalism, petty larceny or trespassing. Most are first offenders.

already been modeled after it. Judges and state’s attorneys like it because it reduces their caseloads and frees them up for more serious offenses. Victims like it because it allows them to face their offender, have a say in what happens to the youth and get compensated for their losses. Teens and parents like it because it lets them avoid the consequences of family court and a juvenile record. Police like Just Youth because it gives them another tool for intervening with young offenders before they commit more serious crimes. Social workers like it because it brings troubled teens to their attention earlier so they can get them the services they need, like mentalhealth counseling or substance-abuse treatment. And everyone agrees that the program makes kids better citi zens by holding them accountable for their behavior and showing them how their actions affect their community. W hat’s the catch? Funding. On May 7, Just Youth sent out letters informing police chiefs, judges, schools and the state’s attorney that they can no longer accept referrals because their grant money ran out. If Just Youth cannot

“When kids see the bigger picture, they have some ownership in their community. If we lose that, we’re doing a disservice to the youth of our community.” DETECTIVE KIM EDWARDS, BURLINGTON POLICE DEPARTMENT Within 48 hours of a referral, a Just Youth caseworker contacts the youths parents, the victims and anyone else in the community affected by the crime. The project is voluntary, but in order to participate the youth must accept full responsibility for his or her actions. Then, with the involvement and consent of everyone involved — including the victim and the offender — Just Youth helps them devise a plan for making amends. The entire process is wrapped up in 90 days, if not sooner. Assuming, that is, Just Youth continues to operate. Every year, about 130 kids in Chittenden County are referred to Just Youth by police officers, school officials and the state’s attorney. O f those, about 100 successfully complete the project. In the five years since it began, Just Youth has earned a reputation throughout Vermont as one of most successful and cost-effective tools for fighting juvenile crime. Other programs around the state have

come up with $60,000 by Aug. 1, the project will be forced to close its doors. And everyone who works in juvenile justice in (Chittenden County says that would be nothing short of criminal. “Here’s an example of a great project that’s falling by the wayside because we’ve failed to fund it,” says Sgt. Tom Fraga, a youth-crime prevention officer with the South Burlington Police Department. Much of Just Youth’s popularity lies in its emphasis on restorative justice. “The idea is that people and relation ships have been harmed,” explains Hillary Kramer, co coordinator of Just Youth and one of its founders. “In the traditional criminal justice system, a crime is a violation against the state. So if I hit you, we’re not thinking about you as much as I’ve committed an assault and I go to court for it. But you’re still bummed out because I hit r> you.

Unlike a retributive, or “eye-for-an-eye” approach, Just Youth tries to heal the injury that’s occurred between the offender and the victim by involving both in the restitu tion process — assuming the victim wants to be involved. Traditionally, juvenile offenses are dealt with in closedcourt proceedings where neither the victim nor the arrest ing officer participates. As Kramer explains, this can be unsettling and frustrating for victims, because often they don’t know whether they were singled out or just the unlucky target of a random act. “In Chittenden County, particularly in a small com munity, often the victim and offender have had contact before,” Kramer says. “It could be kids who see each other in school, a local store owner or a neighbor. So it’s really wonderful to bring them together and give them an opportunity to do some healing together.”

Ju st Youth provides the offender with an immediate consequence for his or hei^crime, unlike family court, where six months might elapse between the time of the offense and its resolution. More importantly, Just Youth puts a human face on the crime. Marcie Nash already knew that shoplifting was wrong, but Just Youth helped her to understand why. Part of her restitution plan required her to interview other store own ers and find out the impact shoplifting has on their busi nesses. “I guess when people steal things, the price of everything goes up, and I never knew that,” says Nash. “So it affects everyone.” Just Youth also tries to identify the strengths of the youth and, whenever possible, incorporate them into the restitution plan. For example, if a teen is good at wood working, restitution may include doing woodwork for the victim and other community members. When Just Youth staff follow up later with victims, nearly all involved report they were “very satisfied” with the outcome. Mariellen Woods is a co-coordinator of Just Youth an 1 the project’s social worker. “The last family group confer ence that I had, a security guard at the store said to me, ‘I had given up hope on teens. But you’ve really shown me that youth do care and they make mistakes. That makes my job worth doing,”’ Woods says. “To me, that shows a high measure of satisfaction.” How effective is Just Youth at reducing crime? Just ask the project’s most vocal supporters — police officers in Chittenden County who deal with juvenile offenders

every day. Kim Edwards is a detective with the Burlington Police Department who was referring between 30 and 50 cases to Just Youth every year. “It’s hard to measure crimes that aren’t going on,” she admits. “But for us at Burling ton Police, we see the effects of Just Youth are so farreaching. The re-offending rate is very low.” Even without statistics to back her up, Edwards says the effects of Just Youth are obvious. Recently, two sisters who stole something together requested a meeting with her to apologize for their actions. “When kids see the big ger picture, they have some ownership in their communi ty. Just from meeting these girls I think they are better citizens for having gone through Just Youth, and we won’t see them again,” Edwards says. “If we lose that, we’re doing a disservice to the youth of our cotfnmunity. They deserve that chance.” . Other police officers in Chittenden County tell similar stories. Kurt Miglinas, a youth officer with the Essex Police Department, was at a speaking engagement two months ago when he was approached by a teen he had referred to Just Youth several years earlier. “The youth said, ‘It made a real difference for me. Now I have goals. I’m getting an education, I’m getting a career, and Just Youth had a lo t to do with it,”’ Miglinas recalls. “For me, that was^reata!tfrhe£Pr^*«tt^ fcdidrit go looking for it. Ftofr many more kids out there are doing well that we don’t hear about?” * Marcie Nash seems to be on a similar path. After suc cessfully completing her Just Youth program, she volun tarily returned to do community service as part of her health class requirement. When that was completed, she kept visiting Just Youth. Now, she spends about two hours there each week serving as a peer leader for other girls just starting the program. She says Just Youth gives them a place where they can talk openly about drugs, sex, peer pressure and other concerns — confidentially and without anyone passing judgment. Marcie’s mother, Paula, is thrilled with the influence that Stephanie Puchner, Just Youth’s case manager, has had on her daughter. “Once Marcie started with Stephanie and Just Youth, she soared,” says Paula Nash. “It’s like a family atmosphere over there. There’s no one talking down to the kids. The kids respect everybody there because they respect the kids, which makes all the difference in the world.” Recently, Marcie discovered an interest in cooking and

MARK REDMOND, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR Or SPECTRUM YOUTH & FAMILY SERVICES

signed up for culinary classes at Essex Technical Center. Although she’s a few credits short of getting in for the fall, she plans to attend summer school to make them up. “None of my friends are going to summer school. That’s how badly I want it,” Marcie says. Though she’s only a sophomore, Marcie is already talking about attending the New England Culinary Institute when she graduates. In some respects, Marcie is typical of many of the teens who go through Just Youth — a good kid who made one bad decision. According to Puchner, plenty of them come from good homes with loving, supportive par ents. Some are straight-A students, star athletes or active in other after-school activities. Sometimes, their offenses weren’t grave enough to land them in family court but required more of a response than just a scolding from their parents. But while Just Youth keeps some kids out of the sys tem who don’t need to be there, it also help kids who might otherwise slip through the cracks. “Just because a kid commits a petty crime, that doesn’t mean they’re headed to become Jack the Ripper,” says Dave Martin, casework supervisor with Vermont’s Social and Rehabilitative Services (SRS). “W hat it does mean, though, is that maybe there’s something else going on.” Those cases come across Martin’s desk every day *— ; young people with mental-health issues, substance-abuse & problems, victims of abuse or neglect. He knows that without early intervention, many will eventually end up in the Woodside juvenile facility or pr&on. W hat he likes about Just Youth is that it identifies those needs early and intervenes at a critical time — before the kids commit more serious offenses. Martin isn’t surprised that in the last few years Chit tenden County has seen a steady decline in its juvenile probation caseload. Though he can’t say why without conducting a detailed study of the data, he strongly sus pects Just Youth had a lot to do with it. Unfortunately, no one has crunched the numbers on Just Youth’s recidivism rate. In part this is because of confidentiality issues — one goal of the project is to avoid entering kids into a computer system and giving them a juvenile record. More likely, though, it’s because the police, SRS and Just Youth simply don’t have the time or resources to do it. Just Youth operates with only one full-time case manager and one part-time supervisor. Apart from employee benefits and some minor travel expenses, there are no other costs.

“The benefits far outweigh whatever it costs for that program,” concludes Miglinas of the Essex PD. “I think every county in the state of Vermont should have a pro gram like Just Youth, I really do. I’ve worked with them for four years and the value is there.”

So why has Just Youth lost its funding? Unfortunately, the organization that provided its start-up money — the Children and Family Council for Prevention Programs — cannot afford to permanently fund it. According to Susan Kamp, who chairs the Council board, federal dollars have dried up and private contributions are down by at least a third this year. Mark Redmond, the new executive director of Spectrum Youth and Family Services, cites the same usual suspects that are hammering all nonprofits: a cashstrapped state budget, the decline in the stock market and cuts in federal funding due to the war in Iraq. In the meantime, the state’s attorney’s office is trying to figure out how to handle the influx o f new cases. Susan Hardin, deputy state’s attorney in Chittenden County, says she’s already seeing an increase in her caseload. She figures it’s bound to get worse. “Which leaves me in a tough position. If I file all these cases, I’ll clog up an ; already overloaded juvenile system,” Hardily says. “I f f don’t do anything, does the child get away with it? We don’t want to send that message, either.” For their part, police officers hafe begun approaching the Department of Corrections’ reparative boards to see if they can pick up some of the overflow. But reparative boards, which were designed for adult probationers, really aren’t equipped to handle juvenile offenders. “Right now these kids have non-critical needs that could very well become critical needs if we ignore them,” argues Fraga of the South Burlington PD. “The fact is, we’re losing some really well-trained professionals in the Just Youth project that we won’t duplicate quickly in any other program.” While it won’t be easy finding $60,000 to keep Just Youth afloat, advocates agree that figure is a drop in the bucket compared to what the project’s loss will likely cost taxpayers — and kids — down the road. “You know when there are problems in the world and you say, ‘This isn’t solvable?’ Well, we have a problem here that’s totally solv able,” Kramer says. “The minute someone says they can fund our project, we’re back in action. It’s that simple.” ®

Kosher Caskets . C h e c k in g ;o u t Je w ish M dhtreal with a “d e a d h e a d ”

eorge Solomon almost died last year. The congestive heart failure that nearly felled him a few weeks before his 60th birthday was the closest he’s come to his own demise. But it was hardly his first encounter with the Grim Reaper. Solomon makes his living selling coffins. And as the leader of Burlington’s Chevra Kadisha, or Holy Society — STORY & volunteers who prepare bodies for traditional Jewish IMAGES burials — he’s handled hundreds of remains, RUTH HORO W ITZ including many belonging to his friends. On a recent Wednesday morning Solomon’s gray GMC Yukon pulls up in front of my house. A wooden casket rides in the back swaddled in a gray mover’s quilt. He’s delivering the box to a Montreal funeral home. While he’s there, he’ll pick up anoth er coffin and take it to a Plattsburgh mortuary. And as long as he’s making the trip, he’ll fetch some bread for a Burlington caterer: six three-foot loaves of braided challah. I’m going along to get an insid* er’s look at Jewish Montreal, and to hear the casket seller’s stories. Solomon is short and slightly stocky, with white hair and a mustache. He’s lived all his life in the same Burlington neighborhood, within walking dis tance of two synagogues. His distinctive diction sums up his background: It’s two parts Yiddish inflection, one part native Vermont brogue. Large hearing aids nestle inside both his ears, tubes loop ing around the outsides. Conversation with him requires a lot .of shouting, especially over the rumble of the engine. One of the first things I want to know, as we head north on 1-89, is how he became involved in end-of-life matters in the first place. “It started with curiosity when my mother died,” he tells me. He was 11. All that year, while other kids were playing ball or doing homework, young George was in synagogue saying Mourner’s Kaddish with the old men in the 10-person minyan required to recite the prayer. He was also thinking about what it means to be mortal. “I didn’t quite under stand what really became of us, and I was a bit frightened, because I wasn’t sure what it all meant. And I was curious. I became curious about death.” Some of the older men were performing taharas ritually preparing bodies for burial — and

George started asking questions. When he was around 15, he was invited to watch the procedure. “I knew the man, and I remember they said, ‘Touch his feet,’ and I was scared. This man was jaundiced, he was yellow,” Solomon recalls. “I can still see him as I tell you about it. I touched his foot reluctantly, and it was cold and clammy. But that didn’t stop me from still being more curious and watching. And I realized the act itself was just a beautiful way of handling someone who was a living being like myself... And that’s what drew me to wanting to start helping them.”

The rite of passage Solomon w itn essed has remained basically unchanged for 2000 years. The volunteers follow a precisely delineated procedure and work in almost complete silence. Before they begin, they address the deceased person, asking per mission to proceed. Taking care never to turn their backs to the corpse, which would be disrespectful, they meticulously clean, then ritually wash him or her in water. The body is then dressed in a simple white shroud and placed inside the casket — tradi tionally, a plain pine box. Nothing is left to chance, from the scripted speech to the orientation of the body, to the shape of the knots securing the shroud. W hen everything is complete, the volunteers ask forgiveness for any mistakes they may have made. Because the lifeless body is completely vulnerable, performing a tahara is considered the ultimate kindness. “You can’t imagine how nice it is to be a part of something where you can do for a fellow Jew that they can’t thank you for,” says Solomon. Jewish law strongly discourages embalming. The idea of a tahara isn’t to improve the body’s appearance, but to treat with respect and return to its source the vessel that once held the soul. Burlington’s Chevra Kadisha is likely the only organization that performs the ritual in Northern Vermont. Since at least the 1940s, the Holy Society has been doing its work in an unassuming little annex attached to the old Orthodox synagogue on Archibald Street. Solomon remembers a time,

though, when the deceased were occasionally pre pared in their homes. He also recalls one funeral at which there was no casket. The body was brought to the cemetery in a wicker basket and lowered directly to the bare ground. In those days, the bearers addressed the dead person in Yiddish. To help him or her prepare for resurrection, “they would put some branches in [the person’s] hand as a cane to get out of the grave,” Solomon says. “I remember thinking this was the end of an era I happened to be witnessing.” That practice was abandoned about 50 years ago. “It was hard on the family,” Solomon notes. “They would be wailing and screaming and pulling at their clothes and it was very gruesome as they saw the form of the corpse being put into the ground. The women would faint. It was a plain chaotic situation.” Solomon began selling caskets in the 1970s at the suggestion of Peter Pritchard, from the Boucher & Pritchard funeral home. Converting a vacant building he owned on Bright Street into a ware house, Solomon arranged to buy his first 30 cas kets, including several that were Jewish. Jewish cas kets are made entirely of wood, with no metal trim or hardware and with holes in the bottom, the bet ter to return dust to dust. In the all-volunteer, plain pine-box culture of the Holy Society, the remains of paupers and million aires are afforded the same dignity and laid to rest in the same humble coffin, and no one gets paid for the work. But in the for-profit mortuary busi ness through which Solomon makes his living, even all-wooden Jewish caskets range from $700 pine to $10,000 black walnut, and there’s plenty of money to be made — especially in Montreal.

Crossing th e border as often as he does, Solomon has the system down. It takes about a minute to hand over his paperwork and pass through the Highgate station. In another hour we’re in Outremont, a thriving Jewish section of Montreal since World War II. Homemade Kosher is a big brick box of a build-

ing. Solomon noses the Yukon into the parking lot, which is jammed with cars and blocked by a tank truck that’s making a racket disgorging flour into the factory through a huge white hose. We enter a door beside the loading dock. The shipping area is filled with boxes of standard-sized braided challahs — but no three-foot loaves. Solomon steps up to the office and asks the man behind the desk, “Where’s my order?” “It will be ready tomorrow,” replies Kevin Hart, director of operations. “Tomorrow? I said Wednesday,” Solomon tells him. W e march up the stairs to a larger office, where a woman confirms Hart’s claim. “Thursday’s no good, I don’t want them,” says Solomon, marching towards the stairs. But Hart catches up with him, promising to have the bread baked by three o’clock. “They’ll be ready by then?” Solomon prods. “You’ve got to have faith in me,” Hart replies. The matter resolved, we pull on hairnets and Hart shows us through the plant. With its 72 employees, Homemade Kosher is anything but homemade. Their 90-foot oven, Hart proudly reports, turns out 10,000 loaves an hour. About kosher, on the other hand, there’s no ques tion. Hart boasts, “We operate 24/6.” The plant runs from Saturday night through Friday afternoon, then shuts down for Sabbath. Affixed to each door way throughout the building is a mezuzah, a box holding a tiny scroll with biblical verses. In the bread room, a huge automatic sifter ensures that the flour is free of even the tiniest impurities, including parts of insects, which kosher law prohibits. It’s no wonder Homemade Kosher is so particu lar. Owner Pinchos Freund is a member of the

Satmar Hasids — one of about 10 sects whose pres ence makes Montreal’s ultra-Orthodox population the second largest in North America. Among groups like the Satmars children don’t watch televi sion, women don’t drive cars, and men dress in the same black coats and hats their ancestors wore in 19th-century Europe. Satmars are particularly known for their vocal opposition to Zionism. W ithout the Messiah, in their view, the state of Israel is a heresy. This May, while Jews around the world celebrated Israel Independence Day, Satmars in Montreal held a counter-demonstration, carrying signs with slogans such as “Jews mourn 55 years’ existence o f ‘Israel.’” None of this comes up in our conversation with Freund, however. A large man with a trim brown beard and mustache, a large black velvet yarmulke and side locks neatly tucked behind his ears, he smiles easily when Solomon and I step into his office. Whenever he receives a call, a snippet of can-can music erupts from his cell- phone. When I ask what makes the Satmars distinctive, Freund answers with a joke. “God goes to visit the heavens. He comes to a large building. The first room belongs to the Belzers [another Hasidic group]. In the next are the Viznitzers, and so on. Finally they come to a certain place and the angel tells God to be quiet. ‘These are the Satmars,’ he whispers. ‘So why should I be quiet?’ ‘They think they’re the only ones here.’” “But the Satmars and the Lubavichers don’t get along very well,” Solomon pronapts. In Brooklyn, strife between these two Hasidic groups is common place. But Freund waves Solomon’s provocation aside. » 28A

JOSEPH,

ROSS AND LAURENCE PAPERMAN (LEFT TO RIGHT) WITH GEORGE SOLOMON

T h is ro o m w h e re h e m e e t s with b e re a v e d fa m ilie s is filled with to ys: G.l. J o e s , m o d e l c a rs , a c tio n fig u res. “Next week we’re donating to the Lubavich parade,” he reports. “You never donate to us,” Solomon replies, referring to his own Conservative synagogue in Vermont. “You never asked,” says Freund. “This weekend we’re having a picnic for the kids. We could use some hot dog rolls,” Solomon tells him. Freund answers, “How many do you need?”

By noon, we're driving to Decarie Square in Hampstead. The mail’s tenants include Kosher World Supermarket, Montreal Torah Center, B’nai Brith Canada and one of Solomon’s favorite eateries, Ernie and Ellie’s. It bills itself as the city’s only kosher Qhinese restaurant, but the menu also offers Moroccan and “Canadian” fare, "’Which is “really Eastern European like your mama used to make,” according to manager Roman Kreyzerman. The tables are filled with mostly single-sex groups. The majority of the men wear black, with velvet skullcaps like Freund’s. The women dress modestly, arms and legs discreetly covered. A door near the cash register leads to -the restrooms and a washing station — sinks holding the traditional two-handled cups used for ritual before-meal ablutions, as well as a basket full of chunks of challah and a saltshaker. Following Jewish law to the letter means say ing a blessing and then eating salted bread immediately after ritually washing.

After we’ve eaten — Moroccan koftas for Solomon and for me a “Canadian”-style terrine of fall-off-the-bone beef floatingTn yellow broth — Solomon introduces me to the mashgiach. His job is to guarantee that Ernie and Ellie’s doesn’t violate any Jewish rules, dietary or other wise. I ask what I consider to be an easy question: the mashgiach's name. “I can’t answer your questions without permission from the Vaad,” he replies. He gives me the phone number of the rabbi who runs the Jewish Community Council of Montreal. For the city’s kosher restaurants and caterers, certification by the Vaad is essen tial to survival. And for the 100-some mashgiachs on the Vaad’s roster, even appearing to violate the organization’s standards could mean unemployment.

We head towards Cote des Neiges and th e palatial edifice of Paperman & Sons Funeral Home. As we roll up the drive, a cortege is slowly filing out of the parking lot, which holds 250 cars. This mother of all mortuaries han dles a whopping 1000 calls each year, with funerals cost ing on average $7500 Canadian, not including the price of a plot. Montreal is home to 100,000 Jews. Though the ultra-Orthodox handle their own burials, most of the rest, it seems, eventually find their way here. The basement-level garage houses the home’s three immaculate hearses and 10 gleaming limousines as well as the Papermans’ personal vehicles. Two workers there greet

Solomon like an old pal. Then they heft the casket onto a dolly and begin circling the shiny wooden box, inspecting it for defects. One man finds a hairline crack in the lid. “You’ll have to take 20 percent off,” he says, still smiling. The other discovers an irregularity in the detail work on the side and digs in with a penknife. “Okay. It’s just a lit tle extra wax,” he decides. When the transaction is complete, they roll up a dolly with a casket a Canadian manufacturer has left for Solomon to deliver to a funeral home in Plattsburgh. They’re just fin ishing when Ross Paperman arrives. His great-grandfather, Lazar, established the business over 90 years ago when he came to Montreal from Russia. Today Ross and his two older brothers run it with their semi-retired father, Herb. With his ready laugh, 44-year-old Ross seems more like a party host than heir to a funeral-director dynasty. ,, Before he takes us on a tour of his facility, he wants to show off his latest eBay purchase. “You don’t want to know what I paid for this,” Paperman says, laughing as he displays a white plastic hat for a G.I. Joe doll. “Wait till you see my office.” On the way, we stop by the immaculate tahara facilities, where the home’s on-staff Chevra Kadisha prepares bodies. Paperman points out that the home goes beyond the letter of the law, provid ing separate rooms for preparing men and women. The mikveh, or ritual immersion bath, is “designed to the exact dimensions of the Temple,” he says. “The flushing drains are to hospital specifications.” An elevator takes us upstairs to the offices. Even though Paperman has warned me, his still comes as a sur prise. This room where he meets with bereaved families is filled with toys: G.L Joes, model cars, action figures. The funeral director opens a glass case and places the precious plastic hat on the head of G.L Joe Astronaut. “There,” he says, clearly satisfied. Then he answers the obvious ques tion. “When you live with death every day, you have to enjoy your life. We don’t just do funerals for old people here, Tut unfortunately for all ages. I can take my mind off it with these toys. When families come here to make funeral arrangements, they appreciate it. A funeral is a healing process.” Many of the toys in his collection are actually gifts from grateful families. This whole visit, in fact, feels like a friendly family gath ering. Paperman rounds up his brothers and they take turns praising Solomon. “He’s an exceptionally caring human being, not just someone who supplies us with caskets,” says Laurence. “The casket business is a large local business,” adds Ross. “We work with George because we love him.” Three dozen gleaming coffins, about a third of them Solomon’s, are displayed in the carpeted showroom. As Solomon looks over his wares, inspecting surfaces, open ing lids and peering inside, Ross Paperman points out his personal favorite, a simple mahogany box. “It’s a very fine casket but not gaudy,” he comments. “People who choose it know it’s among the finest, but it doesn’t shout in peo ple’s faces. They choose it for themselves.” O r for a loved one. “They’ll look at a box and say, ‘That’s exactly what Mom would like.’ Something that seems silly is often the first step towards healing.” Back downstairs, mourners are moving out of one of the home’s three “family rooms” to the larger of the facili ty’s two chapels. We step into an office where a cantor and a rabbi are getting ready for the service. When

Paperman lets out a laugh. “You don’t need to use your funeral voice,” he teases the rabbi. “This is a reporter.” The rabbi relaxes. “Nice to meet you,” he cheerfully repeats, smil ing. Then he hurries off to the chapel. A few minutes later, the meas ured tones of his eulogy come over the loudspeakers. By the time we get back to Homemade Kosher, a herd of enor mous challahs is waiting on a cooling rack. They’re still too hot to be wrapped in plastic, so a packer neatly settles each one in its own spe cially tailored box. After all the day’s focus on funerals, they remind me of bodies in coffins. But Solomon just can’t get over their size. “They’re like big whales,” he keeps saying. Pinchos Freund has thrown in 100 free hot dog rolls.

Solomon is tired, but also clearly pleased with what he’s been able to show me. “The baker came to see me,” he says, back on the topic of last year’s hospitalization. “The Papermans sent me flowers.” We cross the Champlain Bridge, then turn south towards Plattsburgh. The fields are green with new growth. “More than anything else,” says this man whose life is bound up in death, “I’m happy to be alive.” (Z)

COB FRED JAZZ ODYSSEY ned music journalist Bill Milkowski (Jazztimes, DbwnBeat, Jazziz, s JFJO "...one of the most consistendy creative and dynamic groups :ne today." Bassist Reed Mathis’ effects-filled approach "liberates an that is normally held to a background role...strikingly fresh, musically ..not unlike the heightened excursions of saxophonist John Coltrane."

"The funk is laid on so hard it hurts as The Patiokings explore the depths of neoR&B urban acid jazz, Afro-Cuban beats, bottom-heavy P-Funk bass lines, and Stevie Wonderesque jams bring this; dance music together fusing influences from the past such as Isaac Flayes, Gil Scott-Heron, Curtis Mayfield and Sly Stone. “

Begun as a Southern-themed restaurant, A Taste of Dixie has recently reinvented itse lf as a college hangout. The downtown Winooski bar has struggled to find a niche th a t would entice passersby, but things have been heating up lately with gigs such as the recent tw o-night residency of jam-rockers Family Dog. Music is s till sporadic, with occasional DJs and live bands, so check the listings. But even with an inconsistent entertain ment schedule, A Taste of Dixie provides a nice alterna tive to downtown clubs. And then there are those allyou-can-eat dams and ribs.

Like their previous two recordings, this one is a Pete Sutherland production, and his meticulous taste and respect for the band's actual sound — as opposed to some overproduced mirage — works well. The band's "actual sound" includes many bouncy dance numbers featuring Viveka Fox and Peter MacFarlane on tw in fiddles, Rick Klein's catchy guitar rhythms, some tasty selections mined from the Helen Harkness Flanders Vermont folk song collection by Brian Perkins — one of the band's foremost academics as well as a hot mandolin and bouzouki player — and lovely waltzes. Atlantic Crossing s till has weak vocals, though Perkins shows pizzazz on " I Live Too High for Comfort," a swingin' Flanders number th a t sounds like Tin Pan Alley jazz. And this isn't ju s t a competent dance band th a t plays other people's music well; there are ample solid compositions by members, too. The perma nent addition of Macfarlane (who has moved to Vermont to marry longtime AC fiddler Fox) bodes well for the band's overall sound — one of the high points on Groundswell is a Macfarlane original entitled "Winter's Dark Horizons."

FURLEY, D R A G O N A N D PH O E N IX (Double Happy*Brand Records, CD) New York-based sextet Furley funnel funk beats and wild world grooves into an energetic collage of hip-shaking, horn-filled bursts. Their debut record, Dragon and Phoenix, shuffles from swank 70s funk to melodic island-beat and propulsive, wailing jazz. "Chasin' the Dragon" kicks things off with drummer Ian Katz's jumpy disco beat and a tw isting mess of slinky guitar licks, high-pitched synth squalls and manic horn flourishes. "Gypsy Hymn" rides fat, lazy bass lines and rattling percussion, while the guitar and horns playfully copy each other's licks. "Mood #9" is a ch ill ska tune, and "Fire Lotus" piles on thick, heady slabs of speaker-shaking dub. While Furley break no new ground, their a b ility to fuse elements of disparate musical styles in to such a lively sound is commendable. Ferocious horn playing, inventive instrumentation and a fearless approach to composing makes Dragon and Phoenix an enjoyable listen — miles ahead of most current jam bands.

MARY GAUTHIER,

F IL T H & F IR E

(Signature Sounds, CD) Mary Gauthier is now based in Boston, capacious host to a fervent folk scene, and the city where she was an award-winning chef/restaurateur for several years. But she w ill always have one foo t in the bayou waters of her native Thibodeaux, Louisiana. Her weary, been-there-seenit-all-done-everything alto can s till tease a vowel into two or three syllables, and her imagery is as dark as a Flannery O'Connor story. Yet while her stark poetry is delivered with a drawl, Gauthier (pronounced go -shay) writes and sings about characters th a t could be anywhere — the addicted, lovelorn, lonely and struggling from Underbelly, U.S.A. The gush of critical acclaim for Filth & Fire, her third recording (as for, her sophomore effort, Drag Queens in Limousines), is enough to make Gauthier herself blush — though you get the impression she'd more likely greet compliments with a scoff. Jon Pareles of The New York Times declared the album the "#1 Independent Album of the Year," and Gauthier has made numerous folk/country/roots "best" lists around this country and in Europe. It's an understatement to say she's come a long way from the detox center where she "celebrated" her 16th birthday, and the ja il cell in which she spent her 18th. Gauthier isn 't the first singer-songwriter to get a lo t of mileage out of h ittin g bottom — though unlike, say, Steve Earle, w ith whom she's often compared, she cleaned up before becom ing a musician. But Gauthier's previously g ritty life makes for an album with searing authentici ty; she's been among the "cheaters, liars, outlaws, and fallen angels" in the "Camelot Motel." You can imagine her stumbling in love ("A Long Way to Fall"); standing in line at the clinic ("Merry Go Round"); restlessly h ittin g the highway ("Good-Bye); and toughing i t out alone ("Walk Through the Fire"). Like her fellow Louisiana wordsmith Lucinda Williams (w ith whom she is also compared), Gauthier writes incisive, observant lyrics w ithout a trace of sentimentality or cliche, and her unhurried melodies make them memorable. The grimness and tender measures of solace on Filth & Fire are given delicate twang by legendary Austin producer Gurf Morlix — he also contributes backup vocals, mournful electric guitar and other instruments. Darcie Deauville's fiddle and Peter Rowan's mandolin deserve special praise as well. Staying clean and sober hasn't turned Gauthier into a little ray of sunshine, and her fans, including this one, are damn happy about it. Misery — and redemption — never sounded so good. Gauthier opens for Texan singer-songwriter legend Guy Clark at Higher Ground June 10.

Marc Aw odey '

dgar Degas had a particularly great teacher, the brilliant Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, who counseled his pupil to "draw lines... many lines, from memory or from nature. It is in this way that you will become a good artist." Both artists are today remembered for their exquisite use of line as well as their facility as draftsmen. They both would have found at least a few pieces worth lingering over in the current T.W. Wood Gallery exhibition. “Con temporary Drawing 2003" is an inter national juried show comprising more than 60 pieces. Some of the works would have mystified the 19th-century masters, however, and that is as it shouifl be. Much W%hangadHn the last 150 years of drawing. For one thing, capturing a likeness as an end in itself is completely unnec essary nowadays. We have cameras for that. The stark realism of “Isis,” by California artist Joseph Gerges, is less a portrait of an individual than the por trayal of an event: a radical mastecto my. The heavy, nude, elderly model of the drawing stares unflinchingly at the viewer. She is solid, a triangle in the center of the composition, and seems to have defiantly cheated death — but at great cost. The work’s scale, 3-by-2 feet, makes the charcoal drawing about life-sized, which enhances its impact. “Memory and Longing: Desire,” by Massachusetts artist Kathy A. Kalam-ka, is another highly naturalis tic piece. The 4-foot-long horizontal charcoal-on-birch panel piece shows two branches stretching to meet one

Princess Mombi in Frank L. Baum's Return to Oz had a penchant for trying on different heads. The figure in Rhode Island artist David Higham's drawing “The Wheel” seems to have a similar predilection. The person sits at a table or potter’s wheel, head in hand, in front of shelves of other heads. The figure’s wavy muscle toning is reminis cent of British painter Francis Bacon's work. Circular gestures add movement to the composition in a similarly Baconian manner. Drawing is arguably the most direct form of visual art. The diversity exhib another from either end.

SLICE OF LIFE? Robert Morgan's woodblock print "Nude and Wine" calls to mind Omar Khayyam's comment, "A book of verses underneath the bough, a loaf of bread, a jug of wine and thou." Morgan's prints, paintings and drawings are now on display at The Book Garden in Montpelier. Will Hoskins shares the venue with an excellent photography show entitled "Perspectives." His photos, in fact, provide plenty of boughs — most hanging above the books. So the only thing missing is bread.

he third installment in John O ’Brien's Tunbridge trilogy, Nosey Parker, proves, among other things, that there is life after Fred for the Vermont filmmaker. Promoting 1996s Man With a Plan kept both director and star,^4-year-old Fred Tutde, very busy for six years or so. The story of a retired dairy farmer who runs for Congress was such a hit that it led to guest shots with Jay Leno and Conan O ’Brien, and to a real-life Senate nomination in which Tuttlel • thwarted a carpetbagging millionaire on a budget just shy of $200. Luckily, neither’has found himself too busy to make another film togeth er, this time with Fred in a hilarious supporting role. O ’Brien’s latest “anthropological comedy” stars anoth er real-life dairy farmer, Tunbridge’s own George Lyford. When a couple of well-heeled flatlanders move to the area from Connecticut, Lyford is among the tax assessors, or listers, who drop by unannounced one summer afternoon to do some officially sanc tioned snooping. Natalie Picoe and Richard Snee costar. She’s a thirtysomething photog raphy buff. He’s in his fifties and has a lucrative private practice as a psychia trist. Together they’ve escaped the sprawl of suburbia and transformed a humble barn-like structure into a tro phy home worthy of a spread in Architectural Digest. * Eventually, Lyford is hired on as the couple’s handyman and, in the course of conversations with the missus, he discovers trouble in pastoral paradise. Snee’s character, we learn, is inat tentive, wrapped up in his work and golf game. Cut off from her old friends and unsure about the reception she’d receive from her new neighbors, Picoe is increasingly lonely and anx ious. The wife and hired hand quickly take to one another. She needs some one to talk to and he’s just busybody enough to lap up scraps of domestic drama while sincerely trying to raise her spirits with jokes and stories about his hardscrabble life. The two forge what studio market ing types would call “an unlikely bond,” and it isn’t long before the man of the house begins to have reser vations about it. This in itself, of

Before all is said and done, however, O ’Brien manages to up the comic ante with a wonderful twist that literally puts Lyford in the analyst’s chair and the husband on his own couch. The result is unexpected and touching. Nosey Parker is a sweet-natured, uplifting experience whose faults are few and forgivable and whose pleas ures come in all sizes — too numerous to catalogue here. Suffice it to say the 40-year-old has made his most remarkable picture to date. O ’Brien’s trademark approach of casting people who live down the street has never borne more delicious fruit. And, for the first time, he imports professionals from larger towns. The mix is magic. The largely improvised dialogue con tains nuggets of wit and honest-toGod wisdom, the performances — * * ♦ # » '

whether homegrown or groomed by years in the theater — are way watchable. The score, performed by Vermont musicians, is as beguiling a treat for the ears as the camerawork is for the eyes. The filmmaker closes his trilogy on an inspired note of concord and good will between emblems of the state’s past and future. Lyford, for his part, was a major find. His passing prior to the completion of Filming is a loss that everyone who sees this film will feel. John O ’Brien is a lot of things, though I’m not sure prolific is one of them. Between fundraising and raising sheep on the farm where he was raised, the director has taken more than half a decade to follow up his last film. One thing I can report with cer tainty, however: It was worth the wait. After the 7 p.m. showing this Thursday, June 5, at Burlington’s Roxy Theatre, O ’Brien, Tuttle and sponsor Magic Hat Brewing Company will host a reception at Three Needs on College Street. ®

Foreign Reel-ations mericans, with notoriously short atten tion spans, tend to think wars are over when the fighting stops. But civilians caught in those conflicts are forever transformed. That’s certainly the case for Emlaza, a 39-year-old Bosnian woman who is the protagonist of a documentaryin-the-works by Mira Niagolova, an Essex resident. The Real Color of Hair is the planned title of a half-hour project that Niagolova, executive director of the Vermont International Film Festival, has been researching. She spent most of April in Sarajevo interviewing Emlaza for what will be “a story about surviving the winds of history.” For Emlaza, those winds have hurri cane force. Her husband was killed more

She sees the title as a metaphor for loss of identity and forget ting a painful past. Emlaza was initially reluctant to talk about her life before the war, but she opened up a bit the second time around. Such reticence is typical for people in a traumatized region, according to Niag olova. There’s also a constant sense that “things could go wrong just in one night — the way they did for her.” For a person who has endured catas trophes, appearance often is one of the few things that can be controlled. “Emlaza’s hair was changed again,” Niagolova acknowl edges. “It’s now dark brown with blonde highlights. She doesn’t even remember her original color.” At t h e m o m e n t,

d ram a 'SNOW WHITE AND THE SEVEN DWARFS': .

As I m ad e m y w ay dow n College S tre e t to w ard th e w a te rfro n t, three fire trucks zoomed by, engines blaring. A dancing sturgeon and a crowd of people swarmed outside the entrance of the brand-new ECHO Center in what appeared to be a cloud of smoke. Fortunately, what looked like a not-so-grand opening turned out to be ju s t the work of a boy who mistakenly pulled a fire alarm and the special effects of a mist machine th a t released a foggy burst in to the outside air. In a few minutes, the stroller-encumbered crowd was shuffling back in to the center and everything returned to normal. Some kids plopped rocks into a pool of water in the lobby. Others protested the blue wristband required for admission while the ir parents tried to distract them by pointing to fish in a nearby aquarium. Meanwhile, a volunteer in a blue smock kept directing visitors upstairs, instructing them to "follow the stream to the lake." Sensory overload ensued. On the center's second floor, several small hands dipped into a touch tank to feel the bumpy skin of a starfish or the spiky ta il of a horseshoe crab. Nearby, two pig-tailed girls were thrusting miniature "tectonic plates" together, mimicking mountain

formation. In another section, damp-clothed kids were floating little boats and building teeny dams in a mock watershed. When I finally found the stream, it was teeming with reptiles, amphibians and fish as i t flowed from a simulated alpine region through uplands, lowlands and wetlands to the lake. Down in the depths of the Lake Champlain exhibit, a boy poked his head through the broken plank of a wrecked ship. Reflections of rip pling water danced across the ceiling while behind a glass marked up with tin y fingerprints swam a sturgeon the length of my arm. "Oh, it's ugly," one g irl squealed as the toothless, whiskered bottom-feeder slowly cruised past. On the wall hung bicycles, dredged from the lake, which had been destroyed by zebra mussels. Parents pointed to the spoiled spokes and clogged chains in amazement. On my way out I watched two little boys wrap their short arms around a 22-foot tower of bubbling water— a friendly reminder tha t nature is something we all should embrace. GABRIELLE SALERNO

BURN UNIT

etc

Easily the most offbeat offering in this week's Jazz Fest program, Burning Bridges cues up an unflinching take on the seamier side of the music that's not often seen by most aficionados. Burlington playwright and trumpet player Stephen Goldberg, who stars as fictional "depressive alcoholic" jazz cat Tony Franks, penned the piece four years ago. The frequently humorous and reluctantly hopeful play gets a new treatment in the hands of director Allan Nicholls. The Montreal native, who doubles as Spyder the drummer, worked for Hollywood heavyweight Robert Altman for years and helped produce acclaimed 1995 flick Dead Man Walking. The musically inclined cast includes local luminaries Tracey Girdich and singer Jenni Johnson. "There were a lo t of great jazz musicians who nobody w ill ever hear of, and I sort of dedicate this play to them," explains Goldberg, who honed his trumpet chops in the Big Apple. "Some of these people ju s t couldn't function th at well, but their music was quite amazing."

BOON OR BUST Desperate times call for desperate mea sures — which explains why one com munity theater group is giving away $2500 to a lucky ticket holder at its upcoming production. Without a good turnout, " I can basically kiss my next three months' paychecks goodbye to cover all the expenses we've accrued with this show," explains Theatre on a Shoestring president Dean Pratt. The Burlington group has been offering new works at affordable prices for the past five years. Marrying Walt, which is mak ing its Vermont premiere, takes a comedic peek into a Florida trailer park, where a disgruntled daughter, a salacious son and nosey neighbors visit bickering couple Walt and Mary.

SIL IC O N D A IR Y

Thomas Wolfe found most fodder for his literary material in his native North Carolina — the southern icon is best known for his classic autobiographical books Look Homeward, Angel and You Can't Go Home Again. But the sizable writer also had a healthy case of wander lust, and his travels through the Green Mountain State 70 years ago — five years before his tragic death at age 37 — were among his most memorable. This weekend, a devoted flock of fanatics descends on the Queen City to discuss all things Wolfe. "We always meet at a place that has some kind of connection," explains Thomas Wolfe Society president Steve Rogers, who teaches a UVM summer seminar. "I've been trying to get the society to meet up there for several years and finally persevered." T H O M A S W O L F E S O C IE T Y M E E T I N G Friday & Saturday, June 6 7.

BY ROB BREZSNY J U N E

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

05-11

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): I enjoyed M atrix Reloaded, but I hope you won't see it or any film like it this week. It was loud, frenetic, pounding, bewildering and epic — the exact opposite of what you need right now. You will thrive instead on intimate, subtle pleasures, Aries; you will come alive in the presence of understated, soulful influences that are full o f nuance. The experiences that will lead you to your best des tiny will awaken your sensitivity and move you to meditate on lyrical truths.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-May 20): In the series finale of the long-run ning TV show, "Touched by an Angel," the Madonna-like angel Monica is offered a promotion. All these years she has struggled to help one bumbling human after another climb up out of the gutter; now she has a chance to move up to the cushy job of supervisor, where she won't have to wrestle with so much chaos. But she turns down the gig, and chooses instead to stay at her job of redeeming the ragtag multitudes. I believe you’ll come to a compara ble juncture in your own life during the coming months, Taurus. One path will lead to more comfort and prestige; the other will bring more interesting challenges and inspiring surprises. I'm not sure what the right decision is, but the sooner you start ruminating about it, the more likely it is you’ll do what's wisest for the long-term. ^

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): You’re in a phase when you may be tempted to start food fights at fancy dinner parties, wrap toilet paper around the trees in front of your adversaries' houses and regard the juvenile delinquents of cable TV ’s "South Park" as worthy role models.

I hate to discourage you from indulging this instinct for uproar, since so much of it could be fun and liberating. Therefore, I'm going to authorize you to go right ahead. But please keep a fraction of your adult brain working in the background, ready to step in and halt the pro ceedings if you're ever about to, say, imitate the South Park kids' "How to eat with ybur butt" routine for your boss.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you're swallowed whole by a whale or a dragon this week, don't panic: It's much better than being chewed into little pieces before being swal lowed, which is definitely not going to happen. And according to my reading of the astrological omens, while you may spend a few days in the belly of the beast, you will even tually be... uh... expelled intact out the other end. Then it'll just be a matter of navigating the winding path back home. The entire experi ence will no doubt be humbling, Cancerian, but it will also have the salubrious effect of scouring you clean of a whole mess of karma.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): "Can you find an imperfection on Halle Berry? We can't." So writes Hollywood, corn's Scott Huver about the Oscarwinning beauty born under the sign of Leo. Huver also notes that People magazine has five times named Berry one of the 50 Most Beautiful People and that Playboy called her o n ^ o f the lOO&xiest women of the 20th cen tury. And how does Berry herself feel about her looks? "To be totally hon est," she told the German magazine Journalfu r die Frau, "most of thetime I think I'm ugly." I absolutely forbid you to exhibit this kind of self-abasement in the coming week, Leo. You may not, under any circum stances, denigrate your own gorgeous

radiance. It's crucial for both yourself and everyone you encounter that you celebrate your magnificence.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "Nothing worse could happen to one than to be completely understood." So said pioneer psychologist Carl Jung. If you think what he said is true, you should take action imme diately, because you're in imminent danger of being well understood by at least two people. If on the other hand you’re confident you can han dle the odd sensation of being seen for exactly who you are, do nothing other than what you're already doing.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Marriages in India are usually arranged by relatives of the bride and groom, and most couples who wed come from the same religion or caste. There are daring rebels who ignore those customs, though, and choose to marry for love. One of their champions is a social worker named Biswanath Ramachandra Champa Swapnaji Taslima Voltaire. He has launched a new political party for lovers called the Lovers' Green-Globalist Godfree-Humanist Party. "Only those who love can effectively change society,” he says, "and my new party will be their plat form." I bring this up, Libra, because it's a perfect astrological moment for you to launch your own Lovers' Party. You have a growing knack for ^bringing itllimacy and tenderness into political struggles. W hen help ing your tribe deal with its dilemmas in the coming weeks, you’ll be able to summon ingenious expressions of compassion.

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): My dream last night informed me that if I hoped to compose an accurate horoscope for you, I'd have

to go to the Outback Steakhouse near my home. Since I don't eat red meat, I initially felt a bit irked. But I've learned over the years that it's dumb to ignore a direct order from my dreams. I know, furthermore, that it's not enough just to go through the motions: My dream wanted me to have the full Outback Steakhouse immersion experience. So I obeyed with an open heart, dropping all my vegetarian sensitivi ties as I devoured "The Mad Max," described by the menu as "a serious burger for warriors only." By the end of the meal, with my astrological charts spread before me, I'd intuited the advice you need: You should seek out encounters that are as unlike your usual inclinations as this one was for me.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In the generic science fiction movie on cable TV last night, the hero’s spacecraft happened upon the interplanetary equivalent of a junkyard. Aging shuttle pods and out-of-commission satellites floated around a decrepit space station. Soon a salesman appeared on the ship's view screen, trying to convince the hero to browse through his extensive collection of valuables, gathered from over a hundred differ ent planets. "Take a look," the huck ster chirped brightly. "You may find something you never knew you wanted!" Those words or something similar will be coming your way from the entire universe this week, „ Sagittarius.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): "History is made out of the failures and heroism of each insignif icant moment." This observation by the writer Franz Kafka has special significance for you right now, Capricorn. Every little action you take will have unimaginable weight,

and the cumulative effect of your many little actions may alter condi tions you'd assumed were impervi ous to change. Even your passing thoughts and idle fantasies will have more influence than usual to shape your future. Until June 20, there will be no such thing as a‘trivial detail for you. My advice? Act as if each moment is a promise of the life you want to be living next October.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): "The universe is full of magical things," said British novelist Eden Phillpotts, "patiently waiting for our wits to grow sharper." It's another way to express my belief that life is a conspiracy to shower us with bless ings, but most of us have developed ingenious strategies for eluding those blessings. The good news, Aquarius, is that your wits have recently grown sharp enough to detect magical things that were previously invisible to you. You will soon rise up and divest yourself of one of your main methods for avoiding joy and suc cess.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): I'm of the opinion that the psycho logical problem known as Multiple Personality Disorder (MPD) is merely the pathological version of a normal phenomenon. Most wellintegrated people have a variety of selves, any one of which may reign supreme at a given moment. The difference between the healthy folks and the unfortunates who suffer from MPD: Each of their many selves is in pretty good shape and on friendly terms with all the others. W ith these thoughts as an introduc tion, Pisces, I encourage you to cele brate your own flourishing multi plicity in the coming week. The astrological omens suggest it's time to throw a party for your entire community of selves! (Z)

Dear Lola, My husband and I recently moved into a new house. The other day, under a workbench in the basement, I came across a battered old briefcase filled with ladies' undergarments: crotchless panties, peek-a-boo bras, that sort of thing. I put it away and didn't say a thing about it to my husband. Did I mention that we've been married more than 50 years? Anyway, Lola, I couldn't get my mind off those silky little naughties! I can't explain why, but I just had a powerful hankering to run my hands over those slippery doodads; and maybe run them over something else as well. Long story short, when I went back down to take another peek at the panties, they were gone! The only other person who could have possibly moved them was my husband. I'm far too embarrassed to mention the inci dent to him, but I wonder what he had in mind? Confused in Colchester Dear Confused, His mind was probably running along the same lines as yours, dear. Why not put your heads together and have a little fun? Love, Lola
