GLAD ABOUT GAL Thank you for your excellent and timely cover story on Janice Perry, aka “Gal” [“Twisted Sister Janice,” May 9]. Your support of a talented and local artist is impor tant, and her work is so unique and entertaining that she certainly deserves the coverage you gave her. I hope you will continue to do so whenever she is going to perform in the area. — Alice Trageser Charlotte

PROVOCATIVE BAR ART This is regarding Marc Awodey’s review on Red Square [“Raising the Bar,” May 23]. Being a private business affords us the luxury of sharing provocative, political, off-beat, challenging work. Also, we see a mission to promote younger artists like Joe Hilig, Erica Bundy, Heather Ward, Beck Mack, etc., as well as show ing recognizable talent such as Lance Richbourg, Max Schumann, Tony Sini, Jim Gertzman and oth ers. We also see a responsibility to support groups that contribute to the health of our community, such as Very Special Arts Vermont, the Women’s Rape Crisis Center and

Acerca. The King Street Youth Center will have a kids’ show in August. Future shows include video by Matt Strauss, paintings by Max Schumann, another clown show, perhaps a George Bush show, or we may combine the two and call it “Spot the Difference.” — Mr. Masterpiece Curator, Red Square Burlington JEFFORDS REPRESENTS ALL Now that Jim Jeffords’ historic announcement is indeed history, I’m fascinated with the clash of personal values that’s playing out in people’s reactions. Case in point: Robert Skinner’s letter [“Weekly Mail,” May 30] where he states that Jeffords has failed to be “faithful to one’s confirmed alle giances.” That’s a value system that places loyalty to your political party members above loyalty to the citizens of the state that elected you. I voted for Jeffords, but I’m not a Republican, so I guess that must mean he doesn’t need to be faithful to this voter, all because I don’t have the proper letter (R) after my name. Mr. Skinner also suggests that in a time when “the political pen
dulum in the past eight years has moved too far left... there is a need for extremes to be pulled to center.” Funny thing: My concept of “center” doesn’t include an entirely Republican-controlled House, Senate and Presidency. Jeffords’ move actually restores a greater balance than we had after this last court-determined election, and better represents the overall mood of the state and country than any other member of the entire Senate. Lastly, Mr. Skinner suggested that Jeffords “withered and retreat ed under White House pressure.” On the contrary, if he had with ered and retreated, he would have faded back into the rest of the flock of Republican sheep, not taken an independent stand. Washington is a place where the idea of “courage” seems to be to hang your heart (and sometimes your brain) at the door when you come to work on Capitol Hill each day. After all, your party leadership will tell you what you believe in, right? I heard a Republican complain last week that “Vermont elected a Republican to the Senate.” I see it a little differently: I believe \ve elected a guy named Jim Jeffords

from Vermont to the Senate, not just his Republican special-interest group. Today he still represents us — and more than ever, all of us — it’s just clearer what he stands for now. And somehow that doesn’t seem like such a bad thing. — Peter Straube Starksboro THANKS, JIM! I would like to thank Senator Jim Jeffords for shoving a stick into the spokes of the Bush/ Cheney presidency. I have been thoroughly disgusted by the “Corporate America fiber alles’ mentality of the administration and Republican-controlled Congress. It appears that these people are loyal only to their stock portfolios and nothing else. The two-party system in this country has failed because it has been bought, lock, stock and barrel by major corporations who play both sides against the middle for their own ends. Our culture is straining under the weight of its very design, and the side-effects are toxic, to say the least. Witness the growing popula tions in prisons, obesity among continued on page 8a
The $10,000 Man? The money was on the line last week in more ways than one as more than 130 Vermont politi cians and lobbyists gathered for golf at Killington. It was the John Bloomer Memorial, a fundraiser for Rutland County Republicans named after the late distinguished state senator from Rutland. Corporate America was well represented, with Big Tobacco and Big Pharmaceutical among the sponsors of individual holes. The sponsorships sold out quickly. By the time the veteran Montpelier lobbying/public relations firm, W illiam Shouldice &
Associates, signed up, all the holes were taken. But one spon sorship was still open — that of the putting contest staged between the front and back nines. As the foursomes finished the front nine, each golfer was invited by the Vermont G O P’s new executive director, Neal6 Lunderville, to take a crack at a $10,000 challenge: to sink a 60foot putt on the Killington prac tice green. You sink the putt, you win the money. Lunderville told Seven Days he and Rep. Dave Brown (REast Hardwick) tape-measured the distance twice that morning to be sure it was exactly 60 feet. Many a putt came close. Finally, after about three hours of miss es, one putt, struck by the steady hand of a certain hacker from Williston hit the cup dead center. “It was an exciting moment,” said Lunderville. The putter of the putt, Rep. Michael Quaid (R-Williston), jumped into the air shouting, “I’m going to Disney World!” His face, said Lunderville, had the look ol “pure bliss.” Quaid told Seven Days this week it was a case of “blind luck.” Normally, said Quaid, he shoots 30 to 40 shots over par. But the William Shouldice & Associates $10,000 putt, said Tiger Quaid, only had “about one foot of break” in it. At first, said Quaid, he didn’t think he’d struck the ball hard enough. He said he expected it to come up “four feet short.” But to everyone’s surprise — especially that of George McNeill, the tournament organizer and Rutland county chair man — Quaid’s putt “had eyes.” Much sharper eyes, in fact, than those of Mr. McNeill (who wore the ancestral blue-green kilt of the McNeill’s of Barra for the prestigious event.) But better sit down, folks, because this one does not have a happy ending. One week has passed and the winner of the $10,000 challenge hasn’t seen a penny of the prize money and he doesn’t expect to. Shawn Banfield of Shouldice & Associates told Seven Days the Massachusetts insurance carri er, Golf Marketing of New England, wasn’t going to pay the prize money because the contest was not run according to the rules. Ms. Banfield said her firm had paid “a couple hundred bucks” for insurance coverage to cover a possible winning putt. There should have been some sort of “qualifying” format, she said, so that in the end, just one or two golfers would get to take the big 60-foot shot at the prize money. Instead, everybody in the tournament took a crack at it, substantially changing the odds. Golf Marketing of New England did not return our calls this week. Rep. Quaid told Seven Days, “It’s looking less and less likely I’ll see the check.” Mr. McNeill took full responsibility for the snafu. “It’s completely my fault,” he said Tuesday morning. “I misread the contract. I feel absolutely terrible. Quaid’s been a real gentleman about it,” he said. “I don’t make a lot of mistakes,” said Mr. McNeill, “but I really f****d up on this one!” O n Monday this week, the State Republican Committee held its fundraiser on the links at Sugarbush. According to Lunderville, there was
no $10,000 putting challenge this time. However, he said, there was a hole-in-one contest on a 167yard par three. The prize, he said, was a brand new car from Formula Ford in Barre. Nobody made it. Whew! GuvWatCh 200 2 — This week we asked three
leading gubernatorial hopefuls who are not Democrats to weigh in on Sen. Jim Jeffords’ departure from the Republican ranks. (We already know how happy the Ds are.) Republican Con Hogan — “I ’m disappointed. The Republican Party and moderate Republicans needed him.” Republican Jim Douglas — “I’m disappointed. Jim’s been a friend for 30 years. We’ve worked together and supported each other. I believe that the Republican Party is big enough to accommodate a wide variety of points of view, including his. I can only hope that his decision will prove a good one for Vermont.” Progressive Anthony Pollina — “It undermines the conservative, right-wing Bush agenda and challenges the bigmoney, two-party system. It’s great for Vermont, the country and our kids.” Incidentally, talk of Congressman Bernie Sanders running for governor next year is growing louder. Very inter esting. And in a live radio inter view on The Mark Johnson Show Tuesday, Gov. Howard Dean confirmed our report that he has been dying his hair lately. However, Howard “Hate That Gray” Dean did f not reveal what brand of hair coloring he uses to look and feel young again. Ho-Ho says he’ll decide on running for reelection sometime next January or February.

No Way, Jose! — As usual, our buddy Sam Hemingway at the Freeps has a unique and other
worldly take on the Legislature. For a scribe who was spotted in the building just twice this year, it’s to be expected. But Rep. Duncan Kilmartin (R-Newport), the House rookie of the year? Duncan the Dinosaur was Sam the Sham’s choice last week. Statehouse regulars were stunned. Speechless. Newport voters sent Duncan to Montpeculiar as a member of Rep. Nancy Sheltra’s Northeast Kingdom Sex Pack, er, Six Pack. They won office by appealing to anti-gay voters who wanted to lash back at the Legislature for passing civil unions last session. Attorney Kilmartin, the besteducated Sexpacker, carved out his niche as an ultra-conservative, self-anointed genius infatuated with the sound of his own voice. Duncan did not disappoint. He lived up to the reputation he’s already established in Vermont’s legal community. Truth is, there was a pretty decent crop of tal ented rookies at the Statehouse this winter, but they weren’t seeking media attention like Duncan. And they weren’t obsessed with the sexual agenda that House Speaker W3lter Freed gave full play. They just tried to learn the ropes and represent their constituents. We’d be surprised if they don’t rise to leadership posts in the years ahead. Our official Seven Azjyr 2001 House Rookie All-Star Squad is composed of five members — all women. They are: Carina Driscoll (PBurlington), Johannah Leddy Donovan (DBurlington). Kinny Connell (D-Warren), Kathy LaBelle LaVoie (R-Swanton) and Maxine Grad (D-Moretown). Congratulations! All are very intelligent and very hard-working, with bright political futures ahead of them. And all made a good impression in their rookie season. Burlington Republican Rep. Kurt Wright was once a candidate for our rookie squad, but he totally blew his chances in the last month of the

Curses, Foiled Again Police chasing a robbery sus pect in Fort Worth, Texas, found him hiding in a tanning salon. Police spokesperson Duane Paul said the 17-year-old crook used a toy gun to hold up a bank, then ran into the nearby salon to elude his pursuers. The owner became suspicious because the “pastywhite” suspect arrived out of breath, denied being chased and insisted he just wanted a tan. She gave him a tanning bed, then called police. • Police charged Terrance Levar Starkey, 23, with robbing banks in Chattanooga and Murfreesboro, Tennessee, after he dropped off some shirts to be laundered, and an employee found a holdup note in one of the pockets. Chattanooga police Officer Matthew A. Hennessee said Starkey confessed to all three robberies and admitted spending the money “on clothes, rental cars and partying in hotels.” Don’t Play with Fire The Paris newspaper Liberation reported that a man tried to extinguish the “eternal flame” under the Arc de Triomphe by sitting on it. The unnamed man was treated at the capital’s Bichat hospital for burns to his bottom. • A teen-ager smoking on top of a crude-oil tank in Heflin, Louisiana, set off an explosion and fire that killed him and badly burned one of his companions.

Webster Parish Sheriff Ted Riser said the flames from a lighter or embers from a cigarette apparent ly ignited fumes from vent tubes on the 20-foot-high tank. The explosion blew off the top of the tank, spilling hot oil over 18year-old Marcus Jerome McKinney, 18, who was hospital ized in critical condition. The flames killed Matthew Wall, 17.
Won’t Take No for an Answer Accused stalker John K. Flora, 46, was acting as his own attor ney when the victim took the witness stand. Flora asked the court clerk to hand him a $4995 diamond-and-amethyst engage ment ring that had been entered as evidence, then proposed to the woman. “Marry me,” he said. “You mean everything to me.” The woman, who dated Flora for eight months in 1976 and 1977, jumped up and fled the court room. • A jilted woman in Hong Kong pestered her former lover with more than 1000 phone calls a day for three years.

hands. Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Cal Dennie said Wilkes explained his wife’s incessant hand washing resulted from an obsessive-compulsive dis order. • Corey Lyles, 35, admitting fatally stabbing his overnight guest Gilbert Thomas, 34, when Thomas demanded that Lyles replace a missing light bulb in the Philadelphia home. Lyles explained the two men fought, and Lyles threw Thomas out. When he tried to force his way back in, Lyles killed him with a steak knife.
newspaper reported the calls began when the married man, identified as Cheung, refused the woman’s pleas to live together. After two years, the man switched jobs and changed his telephone, cell phone and pager numbers, but the woman found out the new numbers and resumed call ing a year later. She also sent 500 faxes a day. The situation reached a climax this New Year’s Day when the woman showed up at Cheung’s home demanding money. Police arrested the man after the woman claimed he had hit her.
Second-Amendment Follies Police in Suwanee, Georgia, reported John William Bean was showing his 13-year-old daugh ter how to properly use his .38caliber revolver when the weapon accidentally fired, shooting the girl in the groin. • Increasing encounters between humans and bears in western Maryland prompted Casper R. Taylor, the speaker of the state’s House of Delegates to call for Maryland’s first black-bear hunting season since 1953. Wendell Beitzel, the commis sioner of Garrett County, locat ed in the bear-beset region, announced his support for the measure, telling the Washington Times, “These bears have no fear of humans. I think if there was a hunt, the bears would develop a respect of humans.”
Worse Than Spam Police in Malaysia’s Selangor state set up a task force to try to catch a gang that has been rob bing late-night customers of the country’s popular Internet cafes. State police chief Mangsor Ismail said the seven-member gang robs Internet surfers of cash, jewelry and mobile phones, then strips the victims and locks them in toi lets.

or the longest time, I had no idea who he was or what he did. All I knew 11 was, he would arrive on the | afternoon Montpelier bus about once a month, and trans| fer to my taxi for the trip to the I airport. He was a big man, around retirement age, but there was no hesitancy in his gait — he moved with purpose. He would acknowledge me a when we connected at the bus terminal, with a nod that let me know he remembered me. Though he never made small talk during our rides, he didn’t H strike me as snobbish, or even standoffish. He would just ride in the back seat, a reflective look in his light blue eyes. | Sometimes he would carefully I remove a document from his well-used, leather briefcase, and read it over, slightly squinting. He seemed an intensely private man. Once — just once — I summoned the courage and j asked him where he flies. “Atlanta, Georgia,” he respond1 ed in a sonorous bass voice. After the better part of a ' j year and quite a few of these trips, my curiosity began to mount. W hat was it about this man, this particular fare that so stimulated my interest? There s was something about him. I | find myself going back to the way he carried himself. I’ve heard a word used in the I description of an individual with societal esteem and intel lectual depth and, despite hav ing never really spoken with him, I would have applied it to | this man: gravitas. He radiated * it. But even as my curiosity built, I kept quiet, honoring his privacy. Though I’m normally chit-chatty, I can recognize and 8 respect a person who is not. Plus, we all know what killed the cat. Finally, on one of our rides I together, I saw him straighten 1 up in his seat. “So, how do you j like cab-driving?” he suddenly asked. “Well,” I replied slowly, tryI ing to squelch any sign of over® eagerness. “I like it just fine. ,v. I’m my own boss, I enjoy dris ving, and I get to meet a lot of ! interesting folks.”
F
“T hat’s a big plus in life, to like what you do,” he said, relaxing back into his seat. Sensing his expansive mood, I wasn’t going to let this relative explosion of volubility pass. The opportunity may not repeat itself, I thought. Carpe diem, and all that. “So,” I asked with near giddy expectation, my months of speculation on the verge of resolution, “what kinda work do you do?” “I work for the Carter Center,” he replied without hesitation. “It’s a foundation established by Jimmy Carter.” “Okay,” I said. “Okay, I’ve heard of that. You’re active on issues of world peace and rec onciliation. Is that right?” I watched a smile come over his face in the rear-view mirror. “Yes, that probably encapsulates our mission in a phrase or two.” This was intensely intrigu ing to me. I’ve always had pro found admira tion for Jimmy Carter. I guess it’s conventional wisdom that he wasn’t terribly effective as a president, but his life’s work, including before and especially post-presidency, is a model of integrity and humility. For my money, these qualities are in short supply in modern public life. Jimmy Carter is one of those guys who inspires me to try to do some good in my miniscule corner of the world. “So whatcha working on currently? Where’s the President focusing his atten tion?” It felt right to refer to Jimmy Carter by the honorific title attached for life to anyone achieving our highest elected office. “Well, a lot of focus is still on the establishment of a World Court. This would func tion under the auspices of the U.N. and would deal with,
M a n
among other things, the trial of war criminals accused of crimes against humanity. Unfortun ately, the United States has been the chief roadblock in this effort.” The Ho-Hum Motel sig naled the left turn to the air port. Although I’ve passed this motel a half-dozen times a day for 20 years, I still find the name amusing. But my curiosity was not yet fully sated, and time was awasting. “So, I haven’t asked you,” I said, “what exactly do you do at the Carter Center?” He didn’t answer immedi ately, and I could see him stroking his chin with his left hand. Then he said, “I work closely with the President on a variety of organizational and policy issues.” As we pulled into the air port horseshoe, it hit me: This is Carter’s right-hand man. I just knew it. His answer was somewhat vague, but it was his humil ity talking. “Nice chatting with you,” he said with a warm smile, as he paid the fare. “Likewise,” I replied. “See ya next time.” I watched him step out of the cab and fA stride through the sliding door of the terminal. I had felt an inexplicable attraction to this man for months, and now it had grown into genuine admiration. If, in my imagina tion, I would construct a per son whom Jimmy Carter might choose as a close confidante and advisor, that person would look exactly like the man I had just dropped off. Pulling out of the airport, I felt oddly elevated, as if, in some sense, I had just experi enced the thoughtful and com passionate presence of former President Jimmy Carter him self. ©

our children, the escalating quali ty of violence in our society and entertainment, the failure of prof it-driven HMOs to offer afford able medical insurance, and voter apathy... President Bush and his gang have (including Alan Greenspan) have shown themselves to be nothing more than economic Darwinists whose sole interest is cementing in place the corporate feudalism that has thrived since the 1980s with the advent of deregulation, and all the while feeding the Culture of Con sumption and Distraction they use for cover. Thank you, Jim, for standing up. I hope others will follow your example. It is time for a change. Maybe Thomas Jefferson was right when he said there should be a revolution every 20 years or so to keep tyrants from holding on to power. If that’s the case, we’re long, long overdue. — Russell V. Paul Burlington PROUD OF JEFFORDS There has been much said about loyalty and integrity in regard to Senator James Jeffords’ decision to leave the party of his family and his long and distin guished political career. And there has been much confusion between the two characteristics. Loyalty is to an institution or a cause, whether salutary or cor rupt. Integrity is consistency with a set of values which define one as a person, a form of honesty. Swearing allegiance to something outside of oneself can draw a per son into a dangerous conflict with one’s own sense of propriety or with one’s conscience. Hitler’s SS was extremely loyal, but it was the resistance movement in Nazi Germany which had integrity. We speak of “loyalty among thieves” to exem plify allegiance without integrity. Loyalty is a rather adolescent quality based on the notion that one never squeals on another member of the group regardless of the ethics or the social conse quences. And it should only be disloyalty to the Mafia which necessitates a 24-hour armed guard. Jeffords wears the mantle of a long line of independent-minded Republican Vermont senators, and his votes have reflected both a loyalty to his party (perhaps not always deserved) and a willingness to challenge it. This history reflects a difficult balancing act between political loyalty and per sonal integrity... That Vermont’s Republican party tries to portray Jeffords as a Benedict Arnold says more about its own extremism than about either Arnold or Jeffords. Arnold, like Jeffords, had a distinguished career in service to the American people. Both were unfairly slight ed by their colleagues. But, unlike Arnold, who switched his allegiance out of spite and for money and privilege, James Jeffordsyfyas willing to risk career, friendship and almost everythingythaf^ c^valtte to
J., __________
him except his integrity. Ulti mately, there is no greater loyalty than that. James Jeffords, in demonstrat ing his commitment to serve our highest ideals, stands as a rare beacon of faith, hope and free dom in an increasingly turbulent political sea which carries more flotsam than anything that can be recognized as a ship of state. James Jeffords is a true American patriot, and Vermonters have good reason to be proud. — Robert Riversong & Andree Clearwater Readsboro LET GEORGE DO IT George Thabault does it again! I’m amazed at how much fun and informative George’s articles are. His article on various winter sports had me checking out Huntington last winter (Sleepy Hollow) and now he may have motivated me to get off my spin ning gear and join the real mov ing bicyclists to explore more of this beautiful area we live in. It’s definitely a tear-out article [“’Dack Tracks,” May 30] to be recycled to my biking friends. Thanks for the virtual tour, George! Now if we can only have more sunny days. — Anne Barbano Burlington
FREYNE WENT OFF TRACK To Peter Freyne: I am an avid reader of your “Inside Track,” but two weeks ago I took offense to your painting Ms. Tracy Schmaler with the same broad brush as you did Mr. Freed. Every person with whom I spoke, regardless of polit ical bent, interpreted your com ments in the same manner. You recklessly besmirched Tracy in your assault on Walter. In your latest column, you attempt to duck responsibility by claiming that dirt is in the mind of the reader. That’s specious at best. You clearly smeared Tracy when you intimated that some thing may be amiss in the Speaker’s chambers behind closed doors — shifting blame to the reader just doesn’t cut it. You lost a healthy measure of respect from me. Your feeble attempt to evade criticism, your failure to acknowledge you screwed up and your couched apology have emptied the flask of good will. In the future, when my peers and I read your articles, the laughter you hear won’t be with you, it will be at you. — Dana Adams Montpelier Letters Policy: SEVEN DAYS w ants your rants and raves, in

still find it interesting to consider the parenting style that Norman describes with pragmatic logic. “In a way, when you have a fami ly, you’re trying to build some thing,” he says during a tele phone interview. “You make investments of time and money, and then eventually live off that.”

Excerpts from Two fo r the Summit On identity and parenting:
I was an old-fashioned man, unable or unwilling to change with the times. There had been a movement in the culture, spawned by the successes o f fem inism , fo r men to become sensitive and get in touch with their feelings. I didn’t even try. Nor, later on, d id I attend campfires where men beat on tom-toms and chanted in'opt ite their fi P;A prim itive natures. I knew i t wouldn't work and that I would have to get by with the material a t hand. I resolved, over and over, to do the best I qould with w. .hat I h a d — an old male oath — and that is what I did. And, o f course, I never once fe lt up to the job. „ ’ if, : This would have also been true, I suppose, ifT d had sons. B u t! fe lt especially inadequateas the father o f girls...
Never again.
On climbing high-altitude mountains:
You’ve saved before. Now save again!
I knew friends o f m ine were saying things like “m idlife crisis, ” about me and I though I was, in some m ild sense, a fool.

Argentina with nine other climbers and a guide. “I was 21 when I did the climb,” Brooke later wrote in an article for N ational Geographic Adventure, a magazine that regu larly features her father’s work, “and there were times when I felt a way that I never have before, which is that my dad and I were both on the same level.” That level was 22,835 feet above the sea on a formidable, snow-covered peak, the tallest outside Asia, where the air was so thin Brooke often had trouble breathing. “It’s difficult and dan gerous,” Norman observes. “And the danger increases exponentially the higher you go. It’s hostile ter• » rain. At various intervals, father and daughter suffered from headaches, coughing, nosebleeds, poor appetites and sleeplessness combined with fatigue.

hazardous recreation? “If you don’t get it, there’s no explaining it,” Norman suggests in a passage of his book that addresses the issue, before quoting the Bible: “‘I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my strength.’” Norman thinks of his outdoor escapades as “stunts,” which in the future might not necessarily involve heights. “Hadley and I are talking about buying a classic American car, maybe a GTO or something, and driving it to ail the stations of the cross — like Graceland,” he says. In an era when Elvis first became King and was still gen uinely alive, Norman grew up as a Navy brat in the Deep South. “For a Southerner, there was still kind of an oral tradition then, with lots of reading and story telling,” he recalls. “My family had an appreciation of the writ ten word. I fell under the spell of Faulkner.” As a college student at Miami University in Ohio, he majored in economics. In 1966, he joined the Army and was sent to

gen-starved part of my brain, I began to imagine the worst. As bad as the worst was, some of the alternatives seemed just as bad. Severe frostbite? The kind that results in amputations. The idea of my litde girl maimed was too ugly to contemplate... but I did, for a minute or two.” For Brooke, the harrowing times were outweighed by the opportunity for bonding. “It was n’t fun,” she writes. “It was ardu ous and difficult. But it was defi nitely an amazing experience that I would never trade for anything. It was priceless to get to spend that time with my dad.” Although Norman and his daughter made it back safely, there are grim reminders of the perils they faced. Alex Lowe, an experienced climber they befriended on the Tetons trek, was later killed by “a freak ava lanche” in the Himalayas. “I know it sounds strange to say this, but therms almost com fort in that,” Norman says. “You study what happens in accidents and think, ‘Oh, that’s what he did wrong.’ There’s that old reli able conviction it can’t happen to you. But an avalanche is random. You can get struck by lightning in your garden.” W hat attracts people to such
Vietnam for two years in a non combat role he now declines to discuss. His literary ambitions resurfaced while Norman worked in Chicago and then New York, where he was an editor for Esquire in the late 1970s. That’s when he met Marsha, a North Carolina graphic designer who now edits Stratton, a lifestyle magazine based in southern Vermont. After marrying, in 1979 the couple decided that the city was not the right place to raise a fam ily. Although rural enclaves in Connecticut or even New Jersey are closer to Manhattan, “Vermont is prettier than any of those places. We weren’t looking for half-measures,” Norman says. He was looking for a place to enjoy his favorite pastimes. “Boys in the South are passionate about cars or sports or hunting and fishing. That’s the way I went,” Norman says. But he was not prepared for the liberalism so prevalent in the Green Mountain State, “that, alas, attracted not just migrants like myself but seemingly every tie-dyed hippie outcast from up and down the Atlantic Coast,” he theorizes in a Weekly Standard article that appeared last year. “The New Vermont has filled up
over the past generation with cranky lefties...” The cranky right-winger also attacks civil unions, Act 60, the states Dr. Dynosaur health pro gram for children and, of course, the evil triumvirate of Leahy, Jeffords and Sanders. “Vermont has become unmoored from its traditions and is drifting, derelict,” Norman speculates in print. W hen not denouncing public figures he disagrees with, Norman has been a less vitriolic scribe. His one nod to Vietnam was Bouncing Back, a late 1980s book about prisoners of war returning to civilian life. Normans halfdozen novels include a mystery series about a character named Morgan Hunt, a Floridian who hunts quail — never Quayle! — eats fried catfish with hushpuppies and listens to bluegrass. Oh, and the guy is not bad at solving homicides. These days, Norman sticks to tales of derring-do or athletic prowess. He contributes journal ism or book reviews to a range of publications: Sports Afield, The Wall Street Journal and Outside, among others. He’s crafting a new book about the football rivalry between the University of Florida and Florida State. A piece in the current issue of National Geographic Adventure traces a three-week journey he took with three other people last summer along the Chilkoot Trail, “the route that the Klondikers took across the coastal mountain range in Alaska to get to the Yukon at the end of the 19th century,” he says. “Our group didn’t get scurvy or find gold.” Norman is thinking about another trip in that neck of the woods, to an Alaskan island pop ulated by grizzlies. “I really like bears,” he acknowledges. And he adores mountains. “One of the great advantages of writing a mountain-climbing book is that it’s right there for you.” Similarly, “Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn was just about getting down the river.” His voyage down the river of fatherhood has had its inevitable ebbs and flows. Brooke, now 22 and graduated from the University of Chicago, works as a paralegal and is mulling over law school. Hadley is 20 and going into her sophomore year at a col lege in Massachusetts. “Every family has tough times,” Norman explains. “The girls went through rebellions. W hat kids haven’t? We probably handled it badly, like all parents. But we’re all still very close.” W hen it comes to high alti tudes, Norman is not quite as gung-ho as he was in the Two for the Sum m it years. “If I were younger, I think Everest would be my goal, but I think the fascina tion with mountain-climbing has peaked — if you’ll pardon the pun,” he says. “The whole notion of adventure has become pollut ed. So much of it is thrill-seeking, vanity and showing off. Our experience on Aconcagua was meant to be an adventure of the mind and spirit.” (Z)

child’s questions about the death penalty are probably easier for many parents to answer than those awkward inquiries about sex or drugs. Capital punishment is a compar atively clear-cut topic — one that doesn’t involve any agonizing over personal hypocrisy and responsibility. My simple answer is that the death penalty is morally wrong, regardless of why it’s being applied. When the state takes a human life, I explain, it’s only perpetuating the violence it claims to abhor. And in the case of my son, I may further point out that it’s male violence we’re actually talking about. The killers, both the murderers and
A
the executioners, are almost always men. Something bru tal lurks in the male psyche — something encoded in the Y chromosome, maybe — and imposing capital punishment isn’t going to help us evolve beyond whatever triggers that murderous male rage. O r so I used to preach. The experi ence of the last few weeks has left deep dents in some of my

firmly supported by statistics. The claim that the death penalty deters would-be murderers appears as dubious now as it always has. And, yes, its true that countries more socially advanced than our own have all abolished capital punishment. Even in these United States, the contrasts speak for themselves; Vermont hasn’t put anyone to death since 1954; Texas executed 40 people last year alone. It’s not the case of Timothy McVeigh that’s made my abso lutism go wobbly. The terrorist who inflicted “collateral damage” on a day-care center surely stirred uncertainties among at least a few fervent opponents of the death penalty. But for me McVeigh remained an abstraction — nothing more than a news story not immediate enough to shake long-held convictions. Mohamed Rashid Daoud alOwhali is the cause of my new ambivalence on an issue that had seemed permanently settled. Not exactly a household name, is it? Al-Owhali’s infamy as a mass murderer is no match for McVeigh’s, and that’s part of the problem. Objectively, the Saudi slayer deserves to be at least as widely reviled as the all-American bomber. Maybe more so. After all, al-Owhalis body count sur passed T^cVeigh’s, 213 to 168. One crime was committed in middle America, however, while the other occurred in a third-
world country. Moreover, every one of McVeigh’s victims was an American; only 12 of al-Owhali’s met that test for intensive media coverage in the United States. The 200 Africans blown up by al-Owhali and his on-thescene accomplice — a successful suicide bomber named Azzam had been riding buses, walking along the street or working in offices an instant before 10:35 a.m. on August 7, 1998. Most of the sudden ly dead were unlucky enough to be in the vicinity of the American embassy in Nairobi, Kenya, when Azzam triggered a massive truck bomb. The target was the four-story steeland-concrete embassy near a busy intersection, and it did sustain heavy damage. But because the bomb exploded in a parking lot, the destruction was far worse in Ufundi House, an adjoining seven-story office building, which collapsed altogether and entombed more than 100 Kenyans. Scores more died in a nearby 21 -story, glass-encased bank building, some of them decapitated when the blast blew out windows. Several of the 4000 people
“The Base.” This Islamic funda mentalist cabal is headed by Osama bin Laden, a millionaire militant now living under the protection of Afghanistan’s fanat ical Taliban. Bin Laden’s announced intent of striking at “the snake” — the United States — is motivated, in part, by the American mili tary presence in his native Saudi Arabia, main tained since the 1990 Gulf war. (August 7, the day of the twin bombings in East Africa, marks the anniversary of U.S. troop deployments on soil sacred to Muslims.) As the U.S. correspondent for Kenya’s Daily Nation newspa per, I’ve been writing about the bombings since the day they hap pened. But until the trial of alOwhali and three co-conspirators got underway in federal court in New York four months ago, the carnage in Kenya seemed almost as abstract as the massacre McVeigh perpetrated in Oklahoma City in 1995. Horrific, of course, but not haunting. Despite all the stories filed, I never thought much
wounded in the explosion lost vision in one or both eyes that were lacerated by flying glass. Office workers had been drawn to the windows by the noise of stun grenades al-Owhali hurled at embassy guards seconds before he changed his mind about mar tyrdom and ran away as the

That blast killed 11 people— 10 Tanzanians and the Egyptian sui cide driver of the truck packed with T N T and plastic explosives. Both attacks were planned and executed by an underground net work called al Qaeda, Arabic for
about how such a crime might be most appropriately punished. Covering the trial erased my distance from the deed and its consequences. Now the murder ers had faces; indeed, they were sitting only 30 feet away. Being in the physical presence of great evil made me wonder whether retribution can sometimes be jus tified. Testimony in the trial’s deathpenalty phase, following alOwhali’s conviction on 213 mur der counts, has come close to convincing me that death is indeed the proper penalty for slaughter on such a scale. “No one who heard that testi mony will ever forget it,” U.S. prosecutor Michael Garcia said in a closing statement to the jury weighing al-Owhali’s fate. Garcia wasn’t exaggerating for effect. Most people present for that two-day procession of grief, including one of al-Owhali’s defense attorneys, were repeated ly reduced to tears. Among those weeping in the courtroom was the 12-year-old daughter of a woman killed in the blast. Her father, State Department lawyer Howard Kavaler, was sitting on the wit ness stand describing how his family has been affected by the loss of Prabhi Kavaler, an embassy employee. “O ur lives have been turned upside down,” said Kavaler as a picture of his continued on page 16

slain wife appeared on computer terminals throughout the court room. Amos Murithi Karimi, a Kenyan businessman, told of identifying the remains of his wife, a secretary in Ufundi House. “I found her at the mor tuary,” Karimi said. “On one side were bodies which you could identify and on the other side were parts of bodies. There was a long line waiting to get in.” Doreen Jemutain Ruto lost her husband of nine years. “He was a hero to the family,” a sob bing Ruto said of her murdered spouse. “After his death we lost direction. I lost a mentor. I lost my best friend.” Mordecai O nuno spoke halt ingly of the moment he recog nized the remains of his wife, Lucy Grace, by the flower print dress she had worn to work that Friday morning. O nuno remem bers that he first placed his wife’s wedding ring on his own finger and then “tried to hold her head to look at her face. But there was no face.” O nuno added that his wife’s death has filled him with “a great anger because she was a very peaceful person who died so violently.” By the time 26 bereaved or maimed Kenyans and Americans had finished telling their terrible stories, a good many listeners were also filled with a great anger. The prosecution may have masterfully manipulat ed emo tions, but al-Owhali’s own atti tude did much to provoke a vengeful reaction.
rade Azzam that moved al£ W hat about the often-prof fered alternative to the death penalty — life imprisonment with no possibility of release? Under federal law, that is indeed the only sentence other than execution that can be hand ed down in al-Owhali’s case. It does seem a more civilized and perhaps even more painful pun ishment for someone craving martyr status. But it’s a flawed option, fraught with moral dilemmas I hadn’t previously considered. Because al-Owhali views any and all Americans as his enemy, prosecutors argued, he will pose mortal dangers to all who come in contact with him during the course of a prison term that could last 50 or 60 years. Defense attorneys countered that any threatening behavior would result in al-Owhali being subject to “special administrative meas ures” that can be renewed every 120 days. But the special measures are “not foolproof,” a prosecutor pointed out in rebuttal. In fact, another accused embassy bomb ing conspirator was being held under those top-security condi tions in a New York jail last November when he stabbed a guard in the eye with a plastic comb that had been filed to knife-point. The puncture pene trated Officer Louis Pepe’s brain, leaving him permanently dis , : i.: abled. Is it fair to expose guards, attorneys, doc tors or clerics to risk of death at the hands of an unrepentant mass murder er? What deci E sion entails the greater degree of compassion — keeping alOwhali alive or putting him to death? “Killing never solves anything,” defense attorney David Baugh said in his closing plea to the jury. “It only makes more people more angry. It does n’t make sense to pour any more blood on all that has already been spilled.” Baugh is right, of course. But so is prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald, who told the jury that the death penalty for al-Owhali is “no worse than the sentence he imposed on 213 people with no due process.” Thankfully, I wasn’t one of the 12 jurors who had to weigh the question of life or death. Once, I would have been sure how to respond. Now, at least in this case, the question seems unanswerable. The jury found it unanswer able, too: They deadlocked, auto matically sentencing al-Owhali to life in prison with no chance of release. ®

skullcap and occa sionally tugging at this thick black beard, al-Owhali sat impassively throughout those two days of tearful testimony. Not once did he respond as the faces of several of his victims flashed sequentially on the com puter screen inches from his eyes. All he exhibited, in the words of a prosecutor, was “an utter lack of remorse.” If anything, alOwhali rejoiced in the killing. In a police photo taken soon after his capture in Nairobi, he smil ingly strikes the hands-clenched pose of a boxing champion. The confession he made to FBI agents a few days later — there can be no reasonable doubt as to his guilt ——contains no admission of any wrongdoing. Al-Owhali s only expressed regret was that the bomb did not kill more Americans and fewer Kenyans. Oh, he did cry at one point, he told his interrogators. It was a photo of suicide com-

tive, he looked up at me and the bot tle and said, “Does that have Miracle Grow in it?” His wife really cracked up at that. Seven Days: How do you test to make sure no little guys are getting through after the procedure?
cross from the Fleming Museum on Colchester Avenue in Burlington, a lit tle sign in front of an office building reads, “Vas Clinic.” It’s not a shop to re glue that old flower vase, but men can get “fixed” inside. The “vas” refers to a vasectomy, a.medical procedure that involves severing the two tubes — the left and right vas deferens— in a man’s scrotum. Dr. John A. Bisson owns the Vas Clinic sign and the board-certified urology practice behind it. Now in his early fifties, Bisson is a graduate of the University of Vermont College of Medicine. He founded Green Mountain Urology in Colchester and has performed about 2500 vasectomies since 1975. Bisson’s urology specialty deals with a wide range of health issues for men and women — can cers, urinary tract stone disease, erectile dysfunc tion, bladder infections and incontinence, to name a few. Last week he discussed the increasing ly popular trend of men getting vasectomies. Here are some, well, snippets from that conversation.
JB: No, people are pretty much aware that it’s okay. They’ve seen a lot of their buddies at work go through it. That’s the way it starts, often: One guy at work has it done, then three or four of his buddies will come in and ask for one. In Europe it’s not as common; in Russia it’s hardly done at all.
Seven Days: Is a vasectomy 100 percent effec tive? V
Seven Days: Who is the typical prospect for a vasectomy?
John Bisson: Considering all the alternatives for birth control, vasectomies are the simplest, the safest, the most effective and the least expensive... The preferred technique is “cautery” which uses a little hot wire. It burns the end of the tube, seals it closed, not relying on any stitches or metal clips to seal the tube. This is done on both ends of the tube. And on top of that — you know, the belt-and-suspenders kind of approach — I put in a small stitch that absorbs and goes away but it separates the two ends. So now you have a seal on one end of the tube, a seal on the other end, and a plug in the middle. People have recorded as many as 10,000 cases using this technique with zero reconnections.
JB: A man in his early or mid-thirties, with two or three children, married, with a job; people who basically want to put the maximum effort into raising the children they already have. There are a lot of extenuating circumstances, of course; the wife may have been on birth control for a long time and wants to get off it because they’re con cerned about the effects of long-term use.
A
i!
Seven Days: Some doctors advertise a “noscalpel" method. Is that what you use?
JB: The non-scalpel technique, well, that’s pretty much an advertising hype. You have to make an opening in the sac of the scrotum to get down to the vas deferens. W hether you use a scalpel or a sharp-pointed instrument that stretches open a hole, I don’t think there’s that much difference. I actually use the non-scalpel technique because I wear magnifying glasses and can work through a
pinhole. I can work through a single opening for both sides, and the hole is so small no stitches are needed to close it over. I make one opening in the middle of the skin of the scrotum after putting in the local anesthe sia, then I bring up the first tube and work on it, thenJ bring up the other tube, work on it, and drop the ends back inside. Not having a stitch on the outside when you’re done has its advantages: You don’t have to come back to have the stitch taken out, and you can take a shower in a day or two. Seven Days: Are some men fearful of losing their manhood, believing that what makes a man is his ability to father children?
Seven Days: Do you have any single patients, or very young or old ones?
JB: I get all of those categories. I’ve had patients on Medicare. Men can be fertile until their nineties, as you know. Young kids? I had a case of operating on a 20-year-old. Unusual, you might say, but he’d already had five children. Seven Days: Do wives and partners come in to watch?
JB: Yes, if they are interested. That way they know exactly what happened and they don’t have to lis ten to any stories that come out afterward. We had a funny comment one time. I typically use a spray bottle of an antiseptic that I use for conven ience on a patient’s scrotum. It looks like a houseplant sprayer. After I had given the man his seda
JB: I bring the patients back in for a test after 10 weeks. I give them a con tainer and they collect a sample at home and bring it in. I put it in a centrifuge and spin it down so I’m packing all the cellular material in the sample right to the bottom. Then I sift through that under a microscope to see if I can find a single sperm. If I can find one, then I tell them they gotta come back in a couple of weeks and test again. Typically, most of the sperm which are “upstream” of the vasectomy will flush out in the first few weeks...and in 10 weeks the vast majori ty of patients are clear. Seven Days: Do you have a nurse assisting you?
- *
*
- “
'
JB: No, I don’t need a nurse. It’s a one-person pro cedure. I do about six to 10 a week now, but I could easily do 20 in a day, going back and forth between two rooms. The procedure itself takes about 12 or 15 minutes. There’s a little prepara tion time before. And after I have them lie flat for about 20 minutes. So they have to allow 45 min utes to one hour here. Seven Days: Is there anaesthesia?
JB: I first give them medicine by vein to relax them ... Because it’s given intravenously the effect is very sudden, and the small dose means it goes away pretty quickly. It’s a general relaxation medi cine. Hey, I’m going to be approaching your geni tals with sharp instruments, and that tends to make the testicles want to hide away; I don’t want to be struggling with the guy. Then I give a local anaesthetic to the scrotum itself to numb up the skin and the area I’m going to work on inside. The patients don’t feel that. Seven Days: What’s the typical cost?
JB: It’s on the order of $700. The vast majority of the insurance carriers will cover it, and for good reason. It means far fewer deliveries, hospitaliza tions and so on. They look at it as a cost control. Seven Days: Are the reversals expensive?
JB: They’re done at the hospital. There’s an oper ating microscope that is used for that, the same one we use on brain surgery and hand surgery... The likelihood o f a reversal is largely a function of how long it’s been since the vasectomy was done. If it’s been only two or three years, the chances are about 95 percent for success. But it decreases sig nificantly as the time period lengthens. The cost of the surgery is typically $6000 or $7000. Seven Days: Did you have a vasectomy?
JB: Yes, I did. I have three natural children and two stepchildren. It’s the greatest thing. — George Thabault

The Men's Issue
Rad Dads The Lund Family Center honors three father figures By Pamela Polston eing a dad used to be so much simpler: Bring home the bacon, toss the ball around with the boychildren, maybe mete out discipline in those cases where Mom was reduced to wait-till-your-fathergets-home threats. O f course, this can still happen. Worse yet, lots of men these days aren’t with their families at all, at best shar ing custody from another house hold. Sometimes they’re with mate number two, or three, which leads to more offspring or stepchildren. But if the nuclear family is an endangered species, something else has changed for men, any way: The sperm-donor model is over. Now dads are expected to be active, engaged parents, even if they’re not living under the same roof as their kids. And the truth is, more men are, or are learning to be, involved dads — and lov ing it. Surveys suggest that fathers today spend 20 to 30 per cent more time in childcare and domestic tasks than did men in the 1960s. It’s these dads, and the critical role they play in families, that the Lund Family Center aims to honor with its first-ever “Festival of Fatherhood.” On August 2, the Burlington nonprofit — whose focus for more than a cen tury has been unwed, pregnant teenage girls — will honor three exemplary men. A “Lifetime Achievement Award” will go to former State Senator George Little; an “Everyday Dad Award” will be conferred on Governor Howard Dean; and Burlington videographer Stuart McGowan will claim the “It Takes a Village Award.” “The Lund’s role has really changed,” says Melinda Moulton, a Burlington redeveloper who sits
B
on the board and was a member of the nominating committee for the fatherhood awards. “It’s really developed into an organization that deals with children and fam ilies, with classes for fathers. We were looking for something that would allow us a platform to present to the public, in sort of a big way, what we’re all about and what we do.” Over the past decade, the Lund’s reputation has quietly transformed from that of a tem porary residence for “wayward girls” to an intensive training program for young parents of both genders. In addition, the Lund operates the largest private adoption agency in the state, according to development direc tor Sherry Ziemke. It also pro vides one of three parent-child centers in Chittenden County,
new dads,” Ziemke continues. “There’s a two-part workshop for dads before the baby is born, with hands-on training with infants, then they come back as rookie dads a few months after the child is born. We also work with dads in prison.” With the fatherhood festival, she notes, “Our goal is to help build awareness of the changing roles of fathers, and to support dads in those roles. The world has changed a lot, and we haven’t come along with support for dads. Fathers are stepping into parental roles without role mod els.” The Lund’s efforts with father training and family struc tures, she predicts, “means better outcomes for children.” The Lund is billing its father fest at the Radisson Hotel “the feel-good event of the year,” and,
through charities, the legislature and raising his own four chil dren. His work with the Relief Campaign — a group project assisting five area nonprofits sev eral years ago — is just one example. “The campaign has a huge and lasting impact on chil dren and youth, through stable housing, neighborhood revitaliza tion, food, shelter and helping them get their lives on track,” reads one nomination anecdote. The colleague whom Senator Elizabeth Ready calls “a quiet man of great dignity, intelligence and compassion” in her letter of recommendation was the founder and president of the George Little Press from 1930 to 1983, and served as a Burlington city councilor and state representative before becoming a senator. One of his sons is Burlington attorney
characteristic modesty. “I was overwhelmed; I thought they must be confusing me with someone else,” he says. “I didn’t think I was anyone special; I just tried to work with children and family programs over the years. But a lot of other people did the same thing.” Despite a successful and ful filling career in politics, Little says he’s proudest of “the things my children accomplish.” In turn, he credits his own father, George Little Sr., who “had a tremendous capacity for friend ship, and compassion for the needs of others.”
t’s a coincidence that another man in state government won a Lund fatherhood award. However, it’s not because of, but in spite of his job. Sure, Governor — and physician — Dean has received kudos for expanding the Dr. Dynosaur pro gram, which provides health insurance to every Vermonter under the age of 18. And his advocacy of children through education legislation will be part of his legacy. But the “Everyday” in his award addresses the fact that the governor — father of two Burlington High School teens — practices what he preaches. “Being governor is a 24/7 * job,” says his press secretary Sue Allen, “but he has managed to coach his kids’ sport teams, attend their teacher conferences, work in phone calls to them dur Tom Little, now a representative ing the day, drive the carpool to himself. Even in retirement, school in the morning and to George Little continues to volun sports after school. He has man teer at a place that serves two of aged, despite the demands of his abiding interests, children being governor, to structure his and the environment: the Lake day around his kids’ lives.” Champlain Basin Science Center Moreover, the governor on the Waterfront. continued on page 20 When he heard about his award, Little responded with

O f all the awards he gets in his life, I think this will probably be one of the most meaningful.” T hat’s a sentiment echoed by Stu McGowan, winner of the unique “It Takes a Village Award,” and whose household is a veritable village of neighbor hood kids. “This Lund thing has been a shot in the arm, but also a time for introspection,” he says. “Fve basically designed my whole life around being a dad, and you usually don’t get much recognition.” Overworked moms might argue they’ve been doing all the parental heavy lifting for a few millennia with little recognition and no awards. McGowan, 38, is quick to say his lifestyle wouldn’t be possible without the full acceptance and involvement of his wife of 15 years, Joan Watson. “She’s the one who taught me this notion of opening your house to other people,” he says. “I don’t know very many spouses who would be able to do what she does.” The “lifestyle” McGowan has carved out is more than most dads, or moms, would choose. For starters, he works at home — the office for his videography company and Noodlehead Network, which produces and distributes videos, by and for kids, is in the basement. That means when Evan, 12, and Emma, 14, get home from school, he’s right next to their “quasi teen center.” The room with its own TV, computer and bathroom might host up to a dozen kids every night, doing homework or just hanging out. More often than not, they stay for dinner. “That was no big deal when they were little, but teens eat a lot,” McGowan remarks with a chuckle. “We spend about 10 grand a year just on food.” On the bright side, the kids now take turns shopping for and preparing meals. “They cook better than I do,” he says.
In addition to their own two offspring, McGowan and Watson have taken in a teenage boy, and another, a Vietnamese immigrant, goes along on most family functions. They are far from the first to join the brood. Last year McGowan started Shoeless Construction, hiring kids in his Old North End neighborhood to help build an

McGowan’s outreach extends beyond home, too; he was presi dent of the PTO at Wheeler School for six years and has held that same position at Edmunds Middle School for the last three. He and some other guys in the ’hood pumped life into a falter ing Little League; McGowan is both coach and umpire seven days a week. “Basically, I get involved in something and I see there’s a need for more help or leadership,” he says. “I have two choices: Don’t do anything, or' get involved all the way.” One eventuality of father hood is just beginning to dawn on McGowan: the empty nest. “It’s an interesting conundrum: Most of the kids who end up

I’m scared shitless about what I’m going to do.” McGowan says his Lund award “came out of the blue.” He’d never had any involvement with the organization before — “mostly because they don’t need me,” he says. “They have a struc ture that works.” But he’s hon ored by the recognition, and hopes the focus on fathers encourages others. “If I do noth ing else in the world than raise a good bunch of kids and help out the neighborhood,” McGowan muses, “that’s numero uno. I wish more people thought that way. The world would be a nicer place to live.” ® The Lund Family Centers 'Festival o f Fatherhood”celebra tion is August 2 at the Radisson Hotel in Burlington, 6 p.m ., and includes dinner, a silent auction and dance party with Jim Branca & the Red Hot Instant Combo.

Penis, penis, my ass, thought the kindly mother who read it. Surrounded as I am by a triangle of the pointy, rising, drooping or demanding members of mystery and maintenance, son, lover, son, yes, yes has become my solemn song. I’m all alone with them, menstruating on the sly, gnawing bakers chocolate over the sink. Genetically, it wasn’t sup posed to be this way.

after 10 years of hus bandly service. One decade and, poof, they were gone, just a whis pering signature on the alimony check and some sorry volunteer corn stalks growing out in the garden to prove they were ever there. We were an army of four women, three sisters and one mother who needed men for the symphony, the rent, the occasional crab din ner and not much else. One delicate month of mourning generally resolved a new man from the wings, much fresher and seemingly more handsome, versed in Joyce and the rougher lyrics of Frank
Zappa, who could do something the last decade-holder couldn’t, such as take us camping. We embraced him, borrowed his clothes, pitied him, made fun of his eating habits right in front of him, and proceeded to love him as we could. So when I learned that a zygote was harboring in my very own person, I was thrilled. A
new mythic army of girls danced in stolen men’s sweat pants and went to the symphony picking crab from their teeth. But my body surprised me and, instead, bore two sons. Where little Sophie and Aja should have been — skirts hitched, knees rough, high atop a terribly wobbly tree — crawled two sons. What the hell am I going to do

But feminism has changed and so have I. Determined to embrace that humanism thing I’d read so much about, I decided to raise my sons without social con ditioning — no death toys or weapons, no curiously crotched G.I. Joe dolls, no football crap, none of it. A human being is merely heartbreakingly human and worthy of love, I cooed to my bundle freshly home from the hospital. Boy, girl, who cares? Human is what matters. In gross paraphrase, W. Somerset Maugham once observed that there’s nothing like the icky clinical fervor of a new mother, particularly a young new mother, and fervent and young and mostly icky I was. Son One was raised in strict, idyllic, humanistic bliss for his first year. No media without the “Children’s Television Workshop” symbol were allowed. No violent acts beyond the accidental smashing of an ant; no food that wasn’t soy-based or organically sort of putrid once mashed. This was a love like I’d never known and, even better, one I thought I could completely steward and control. W hat a fool I was. When Son One was 14 months old, having never, to my knowledge, witnessed an act of violence in his life, having never so much as tasted refined white sugar, having never seen “regular” TV, having never heard a story, i*“ poem or song that didn’t uplift and uphold the glory of life all around us, he picked up a stick. Picked it up and looked at it. Looked at it and pointed it right at myTace. “Bang,” he'said softly. “Bang.” What the hell was I going to do with a boy? Well, take away the baddamn stick, for one thing. But as any one who’s ever been around a toddler knows, a banana, Lego, fat crayon or paper towel roll will work just as well to illustrate
“bang.” “They need to ejaculate, metaphorically” theorized one friend, dangling her sweet little fair-haired son on one knee while his sticky, dimpled hands toyed with a plastic AK-47. “It’s good for them to have that release.” Penis, penis, wah, wah, I silently prayed. And so we had swords, which are in fact the perfect penis attribute, though strictly ejacu late-free. There were plastic swords, foam swords, swords that lit up, swords that made sound, and even mistakenly approved wooden swords that smartly stung when rapidly swung across knees. Weapons were tempered with dress-up clothes: my old cast-offs as well as wigs, earrings, ties, necklaces and hats culled from grandparents and the
blind!” at TV umpires virtually since birth must also attend. Son One was invited to his first kindergarten birthday party. Avidly attached to the read-aloud manners book, Eddy-Cat Goes to a Party, One knew that to show respect to himself and the birth day boy, he should bathe and wear clean clothes. He lan guorously indulged in the tub and insisted on dressing himself. He proudly marched down the stairs wearing one of my old pink tops and masses of neck laces that reached to the knees of his jeans. It was festive, as festive was celebrated in our tight little world. It was clean, it was respectful and it was utterly guar anteed to get him teased to tears. “W hat’s wrong?” he asked, already too sensitive to the flicker of my face. I didn’t say, “You’ll
only lasts so long into the second pregnancy. The shocking orange of Cheetos dust began to grace One’s fingers, and were some times seen marking Two’s infant grasp where a Tofu Pup should have resided. Two was often nursed to the rat-a-tat-tat gore of The Godfather trilogy, cinema to which I was curiously devoted during his formative months. One had heard only classical music while feeding — the better to humanize him, my dear. Since Two was gorgeous in a way that I associated with female beauty, I inadvertently punished him for it by dressing him in pink. He looked wonderful in it, his gold and cream coloring set off like a delicate petal. Even mindful of those baby photos of Ernest Hemingway in long ringlets and white gowns, and

fem inist-raised sexist pi W Goodwill. Giddy in blonde braids, fake pearls and swords, Son One battled Son Two for primacy of the playhouse. Wasn’t I'^gbod',‘4 privately-saluted. Look at them, as genderless as two crazy miniature transvestites could ever hope to be, tilting at each other in high heels and pirate swags. However, state law mandates that children must eventually go to school, where other little boys who have been shouting, “You’re

He wasn’t teased — his own sweet confidence wedded well with the fact that he was wearing a damned good length of rhinestones envied by most of the girls. Son Two was born into a world far different world than One. Clinical fervor, it seems,
knowing that such garb could lead to elephant guns, whiskey and suicide, I nonetheless briefly pretended that Two was a girl. His father knew nothing except that the inexplicably pink things I kept bringing home were on sale, and that thrifty was good. But it takes more than a length of rose-colored cloth to make a girl. Nature triumphs over nurture many times, and so it is with Two. In fact, so it is with One. Because I ditched out
of the marriage to their Dad — and swerved through an illadvised love affair with an effem inate alcoholic before settling on Brit Man, their stepfather — both boys have spent a consider able amount of time alone with me. V I’ve slowly come to realize that, while I can pay the rent and paint the house, teach them to swim and ride their bikes, remind them to be kind and gen tle, eat with their mouths closed and keep their napkins on their laps, the one thing I can’t show them is how to be a man. And while human is good, man is bet ter, at least for them. They’ve been parchingly thirsty, and Brit Man is a long drink of water. jg Granted, he won’t throw a ball unless pressed. Doesn’t understand American football. Likes to go birding and lets me paint his toenails. Wears pink shirts and two earrings. Still, he can do things that the others couldn’t, such as take us camp ing. Son Two steals his clothes. Son One prefers jazz to the sym phony. Only / like crab. It’s beginning to feel like a house where humans are welcome in any style. So, while my campaign *•+ against the horrible sexy nihilism of the media hasn t abatecTover the years, I’ve mostly given up on the gender stuff. They still can’t watch TV or play with fake guns, but they can gas on girls and occasionally engage in that stupid video-game dance that involves whacking their hips up against pinging machines in public — as long as they continue to let me sniff in their deep puppy smell. Boys, as we have all wearily heard again and again, will be boys. And today — smarter and wiser, though only slightly less icky — I must happily crow: Ain’t it grand? Penis, penis, yes, yes. (Z)

ou could fill volumes with the things we’ll never know about my Uncle Sid. In the picture on my piano, he’s the handsome 13-year-old in knick ers and a natty fedora, holding the hand of his sturdy baby brother — my father Irv. Buttoned up in their winter coats, Sid and Irv pose against a painted landscape in an Elizabeth, New Jersey, photographer’s studio. The year is 1927, give or take — decades before the fat-cheeked 3-year-old with the strangely familiar mouth will become my chain-smoking father, and before Sid, the solemn-faced ado lescent, will become the man who lived with Little Grandma, the bachelor stockbro ker whose life was a closed book none of us felt particularly compelled to open. For years, as far as I was con cerned, Sid’s main purpose in life seemed to be to drive Little Grandma to our house for holi day meals. He would pull up to the curb in his latest car: always a recent-model Buick, always

immaculate. When we were very little, he’d bring sweets — choco late turkeys for Thanksgiving, chocolate Maccabees for Chanukah and, for Passover, col orful candied fruit slices lined with deliciously bitter “rinds.” We would mob him at the door, grabbing for our expected treats and demanding a “Trip to the M oon,” a game in which he would wrap his big hands around
in Wonderland and Captain Hook and other classic characters — which I would arrange and re arrange into unlikely family roles in an endlessly absorbing game of story-telling. But for all my imaginative play about possible families and plausible lives, I never gave much thought to the actual person who brought those toys into my life. Once he’d handed over his oblig atory offerings and accepted a Scotch on the rocks from my father, Sid immediately devolved into an obstruction: the man who occupied the green leather easy chair in front of the TV and monopolized my father’s attention with loud opinions about sports or stocks or automo biles or some other strikingly manly and singularly uninteresting topic. On the rare occasions when my mother emerged from the kitchen long enough to join in, the conversation often turned to the one interest she and Sid had in common: travel.

The Men's Issue was one of the few bright spots we saw in a life that otherwise appeared crushingly dull. But even this promising pastime seemed to lose its luster at my uncle’s touch, his travels reduced, in his retelling, to a colorless tedium of interstate numbers, room rates and weather reports. According to the family sto ries, Sid’s life hadn’t always been as boring as it seemed when I knew him. He and my father were the sons of Jewish immi grants from Galicia — a region of Poland that’s now part of Ukraine. Supported by their father’s Jersey City window washing company and nourished by their mother’s stuffed kishkes, Sid grew into the handsome, popular athlete while Irv became the brainy nerd. After high school, Sid took up semi-pro basketball. Irv, an eager 8-year-
Sid took a different route. He never married or had children or owned his own home. He worked as a stockbroker in Newark, and for the next 32 years lived with his mother in Elizabeth, dutifully driving her to our house as the calendar demanded. It wasn’t until after Little Grandma died, when I was in college, that it began to sink in that Sid’s life beyond our family gatherings may not have been as blank as I assumed. First I noticed that he always cast his travel narratives in the plural: “We made it to Norfolk in under X hours,” or “We found a great hotel for just Y dollars a night.” Then I realized that my parents’ annual birthday gift to him was always a pair of theater tickets. That Sid had a regular travel companion and theater date was

After games, Sid disappeared on dates with beautiful women. Irv went home to his schoolwork. And so it went. As Sid skipped from girl friend to girlfriend, Irv skipped grades in school. After Pearl Harbor, both boys joined up. Sid advanced to the rank of captain and collected a breast-full of fancy medals. Irv lost two fingertips to enemy gun fire and collected a Purple Heart. In 1944, while both brothers were still overseas, their father died. The Army granted Sid a compassionate discharge and sent him home to comfort their wid owed mother. Irv returned at the end of the war and began to achieve the American Dream: becoming successful in his career as a journalist, marrying my mother, buying his own home, raising four children and cele brating the births of seven grand children.
openly acknowledged, it seemed. But the actual identity of this other person was never revealed. This peculiar disjunction per sisted through the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s. Privately, we may have occasionally wondered whom Sid was seeing, and why we needed to wonder. But none of us ever asked Sid directly and, as far as I know, Sid never told. He was nearly 80 when the mystery was finally solved. My grandmother had been dead for more than a decade, but Sid had stayed on in the apartment. He still showed up for holiday din ners, and — though his voice and his views had softened with age — continued to report on the road-trips-for-two he’d never stopped relishing. One day he landed in the hospital with pneu monia, and when my parents went to visit, they found an attractive, well-dressed woman in her early sixties sitting at his side. Sid introduced her as Ginny, and the story came out.

They’d been together, it seemed, for close to 40 years, almost as long as my parents had been married. Ginny worked in New York as a commercial artist. Like Sid, she lived in New Jersey with her mother. But while Sid was welcome in Ginny’s mothers home, he had never brought Ginny home to meet his mother. Why? Because Ginny wasn’t Jewish. It wasn’t a matter of religious observance. Our family was, at best, lax in that area. The tradi tional Judaism my grandparents had taken for granted in Galicia had been distilled over the years to a matter of cultural identifica tion, spiced with a semi-annual nod at formal ritual. It couldn’t have been because Sid feared his brother’s disapproval. He watched both my sisters and me marry Gentiles and the family still hold firmly together. Sid kept Ginny secret, it seemed, because he’d felt it nec essary when the affair had started in the ’50s, an era when my par ents’ union — between the son of Jewish immigrants from Galicia and the granddaughter of Jewish immigrants from Lithuania — was considered intermarriage. Once established, the habit of hiding the truth must have become increasingly difficult to break. And as more and more years passed, the very need5't6 keep quiet! •riiay even* s1•'*’ have overshadowed the specifics of the secret he felt so compelled to keep. When I imagine the strain of hiding Ginny’s identity I wonder how Sid could have lived with the constant self-censorship and the active effort required to hold back. But maybe I’m just jum p ing to conclusions based on my own disposition. Perhaps Sid was ashamed of Ginny, or of himself, or even of us. Perhaps he simply, deeply valued his privacy. Maybe he liked being free to pursue his social life without answering questions or enduring interfer ence. Introducing Ginny to the family would have made the relationship official, and begged the question of marriage. However Ginny may have felt about the arrangement, it’s easy to imagine Sid counting his lucky stars for having access to Ginny’s affection without need ing to accept the responsibilities and restrictions of married life. Maybe their disparate back grounds, which had originally seemed like such an obstacle, finally began to feel like a saving grace. O r maybe the situation was even simpler than that. Maybe Sid never confided in his little brother because he felt no need to do so. Maybe our whole family was as incidental to Sid’s life as Sid was to ours. It’s impossible to know whether Sid lost any sleep over his long-kept secret. I do know that by the end of his life, my uncle was content. Or, so he told my father just before he died. A
year or two after my parents dis covered Ginny, Sid went back into the hospital for the last time. His heart was weak, his doctor told him, and even if he was able to go home, his days of living independently were over. The night before the funeral, my father talked about how Sid had summoned him. He was dying, Sid told him, and he wanted to put his affairs in order. As carefully as hed once recorded his brothers basketball scores, my father set down Sid’s final instructions: where to find the codes to his car lock and his bank account PIN, how to divide his remaining savings and stocks. The main point Sid wanted to be sure to clarify was that his pension and insurance payments, for which my father had been his designated benefici ary, were all to go to Ginny. Sid was ready to die, he assured my father. “I’ve had a good run,” he said. “Some peo ple might criticize the way I lived my life, but I did it my way. I liked my independence.” His only regret, he remarked, reverting to more familiar terri tory, was having lived too extrav agantly. Just the week before, he and Ginny had completed their final road trip, a jaunt to Maryland and back. But it hadn’t been, the same as before. “My money was running low,” he sighed. “We had to stay in $30 motel rooms.” Eulogizing his brother at the funeral, my father called Sid,,his n idol, the person who’d taken him to Yankee Stadium to see Babe Ruth play. He talked about how privileged he’d felt when he’d watched his big brother play bas ketball. He described my uncle as a man with “lively” opinions he’d eagerly shared and an “unconventional” lifestyle he’d enjoyed very much. My father never specifically mentioned Ginny. But there she was: an ele gant older woman with a straight back, soft brown hair and a handsome camel coat. She sat with a friend near the back of the room, far behind the family. Though Ginny was probably the one person who’d known Sid best, no one asked her to speak. And though she had no official role in that room, Ginny was the only person there who was really and consistently crying. She did n’t come to the cemetery to help bury Sid, or back to our house for small talk and smoked fish. But I did manage to say a few words to her before the service. It felt strange to accept the con dolences she offered. It seemed more appropriate to offer her mine. But there was no prece dent to dictate our behavior, no social convention to define our strange bond. At a loss, I tried to tell her who I was. But Ginny brushed my explanation aside. “I know all about you,” she laughed. “You’re the writer who lives in Vermont. Sid was very proud of all of you.” I accepted her hand and returned her sad smile, wishing I could tell her the same. (Z)

The Men's Issue
Gardening
forGuys A back-yard boy laments the feminization of horticulture By W arren S chultz
hats a guy gotta do to find out how to grow the biggest tomato on the block? Where can a fella turn to learn about manly gardening? W hat happened to the idea that gardening is all about competi tion, showing off and filling bushel baskets with home-grown food? And where can I find a magazine about simple, dirt-onthe-knees, manure-under-the-fingernails, old-fashioned minifarming in the back yard? Not around here, I can’t. Gardening is changing, and the hard-core, task-oriented garden ing magazines are a thing of the past. The imminent demise of Organic Gardening magazine — the August issue will be its last — has got me thinking about the feminization of gardening and its publications. Consider the current issue of Organic Gardening, formerly the bible of nuts-and-bolts garden ing. You’ll find it on the news stand hidden behind all the “country” home-decorating mags. T*he cover photo shows a cool, blue-hued, restrained and everso-neat perennial and herb gar den. Beautiful, but lifeless. Take a look at the cover lines: “The Worlds’ Most Fragrant Flowers”; “51 Bug Beating Blooms”; “Mow No More: Grow a Moss Lawn.” As though mowing is something you wouldn’t want to do? Clearly this editor has never enjoyed the pleasure of killing a few mindless hours behind a power mower. Inside the issue, you’ll find recipes for cooking with dande lion greens, and an organic macaroni-and-cheese. I would be embarrassed t a W 4, V. 4 * *..*■ '*■ VC; * -*♦

toes will ripen in 90 days. We take great comfort in that pre dictability. Sometimes we feel as if our lives are spinning away from us, but in the garden we can take control. We can blast the bugs when they threaten our prized plants. We can yank out every single weed that dares to invade our plot. We can, in short, become masters of our back-yard universe. Often guys garden to provide a place to “play.” As we grow older and our lives fill up with work and other duties, most of our playgrounds disappear. For some men, the garden can be the only place to putter, play with tools, work on projects. Men often garden to make a mark, and create their own space. In most marriages, the interior of the house is the woman’s domain. But outdoors, a guy can decide what to plant around the deck, or how short to trim the hedge. Finally, some guys garden because its easy to let go of pres ent worries and fall into the com fort of the past. The warm, wet soil still smells the same as it did 30 years ago. Fresh green beans still taste the like the ones from Dad’s garden. W hen I plant or prune a tomato, I’m connected to my father, a farmer. W hen I turn compost, I recall my grand father proudly building his com post bin out of cinderblocks. A no-mow moss lawn and dining on dandelions doesn’t connect me to anyone. (7) South Burlington resident Warren Schultz is author o f A M ans Garden, from Houghton M ifflin, an d T \vt Organic Suburbanite, from Rodale Books.

session. Kwik Stop Kurt sup ported the anti-gay “reciprocal partners” bill that squeaked through the House thanks to Speaker Freed’s tie-breaking vote. Kwik Stop told Seven D a ys the GOP s pound of flesh for gay-bashers was a “moderate alternative” to Nancy Sheltras call for a total repeal of civil unions. Yeah, sure. Then in the closing days in late May, Kwik Stop jumped into the breech to make darn sure that not one penny of state funds would be awarded to Burlington’s downtown super market project. When fellow Republican Vince IlllJZZi, chair man of the Senate Institutions Committee, suggested there might be $100,000 in the capi tal bill for Burlington, Kurt blew the whistle. Sen. Illuzzi, known back home as the “King of the Kingdom” for all the “pork” he brings home to Vermont’s poor est region each year, was stunned to see a politician oppose pork for the folks back home. It’s called a grudge. Kurt and his Republican allies lost the downtown supermarket battle to the Progressives. Instead of a multinational Shaw’s monster store, Burlington’s city council backed a smaller store run by the local food co-op. Kurt still hasn’t gotten over it. Meanwhile, while Kwik Stop continued to blame Mayor Peter C la ve lle and the Progressives for the closing of the old downtown Price Chopper, Rep. Wright’s own New North End Grand Union disappeared right out from under his nose this winter. Can’t blame the Progressives for that, can we, Kurt? It’s y o u r district. In January, as the session started, we had high hopes for Rep. Kwik Stop. Unfortunately, he turned out to be little more than a rubber stamp for Speaker Walt Freed’s Republican agenda. In fact, Kurt often acted more like a Dorset representative than a Burlington one. Hey, it’s like the old saying, if it walks like a duck and talks like a duck... R eality C heck — With the price of movie tickets rising, one equally entertaining alternative remains free of charge. A visit to the county courthouse on Cherry Street in Burlington is an eye-opening experience. Monday afternoon’s arraign ments dragged past the 4:30 closing. The last defendant brought before Judge Ben Joseph was a small, attractive strawberry blonde from the proverbial good home in a good neighborhood in Williston. She was 19 and could have passed for younger. She was dressed casually and. wore unusual jewel ry — handcuffs attached to a chain wrapped around her belly. Her mother stood beside her. Cara Behm was charged with aggravated assault. She’d alleged ly kicked a pregnant girl in the stomach during an altercation up the block on Saturday. According to the arresting police officer, Cara was hooked on
heroin and had gone out of con trol, “continually stating she was sick because she hadn’t shot up.” Judge Joseph, known lor his compassion, once represented similar defendants when he was a public defender in Burlap. He’s not afraid to lock people up, but he knows junkies need treatment more than jail time. Cara’s mother told the judge it was all worked out for her daughter to start a three-week residential treatment program the following day at the Brattleboro Retreat. Most young junkies aren’t so lucky. Most lack the insurance coverage or finan cial resources to get into residen tial treatment. The judge gave his okay and made sure that after three weeks there would be ’round-the-clock supervision when she was released. He also talked straight to the handcuffed little girl standing before him. “When you get out,” he said, “there will be people who’ll want to exploit you and hurt you because they don’t care about your life. You’ve met these peo ple, haven’t you?” he asked. “Yes,” answered the little girl in a weak voice. “Cara, this is the big moment for you, kid,” said Judge Joseph. “You’ve got to dig in and get it done. There are two kinds of people in your life,” said the judge, “the people who’ll get you into trouble and the people who won’t.” Joseph reminded her that the death rate for junkies is much higher than the rest of the population. “This comes down to, do you want to die?” Later, in a Seven D a ys inter view, State’s Attorney Lauren B owerm an described the Burlington courthouse as a “M*A*S*H” unit. “We’re the first to see the wounded and by the time they get here,” said Bowerman, “they’re in crisis.” And they’re getting younger all the time, she said. When Bowerman started as a deputy prosecutor in 1988, juvenile cases were on the docket just one day a week. Today, juve nile cases require full-time court attention five days a week. With corrections caseworkers juggling hundreds of clients, she said, there’s little in the way of the needed follow-up to keep kids from being trapped in the revolving door between the courthouse and the jailhouse. Behind the burglaries, retail thefts, car break-ins and badcheck cases, she said, is an indis putable link to addiction to heroin and cocaine. Bowerman and others have warned the Legislature for years that the problem was growing. Now it’s here, big time. Residential treat ment beds in Vermont are in extremely short supply. The state is playing catch-up. “If the state of Vermont was under attack,” asked another veteran of the front lines, “would the Legislature just appoint a summer study com mittee to deal with it?” Good question. ®

Critics don’t know whether to call Soulive's music “jazzy funk” or “funky jazz,” but they
do know enough to call it sizzling. With a recent debut, the appropriately titled Doin’ Something, on Blue Note Records, the Boston-based organ-driven trio returns jazz fans to the dance floor. Soulive bring their new-groove thang to Higher Ground this Thursday, with The Squad. Dare you to stay in your seats.

We've Got the Movies! page 38a c SEVEN DAYS '• june 13, 2001 "
EVOLUTION** Watching Ivan Reitmans latest movie made me laugh once or twice, wince here and there, and fond ly recall several of his early films. But more than any thing, watching E volu tion made me feel old. Here’s a guy who almost single-handedly defined wise-ass Hollywood comedy in the ’80s. He had his off days (L e g a l Eagles), but what an amazing run he had with M e a tb a lls, S tripes and G hostbusters. O f course, he had a little help from friends like Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and, most notably, Bill Murray. Perhaps the most disconcert ing element in Reitmans new film is his glaring, faltering effort to model it on the hip comedies he made when he was young and working with ground-zero comic talent. You can’t go home again, and you sure aren’t going to get even close when you attempt to make the trip with Orlando Jones and noncomical blankface David Duchovny. The “X Files” defector returns to extraterrestrial territory as a small-tqwn college professor who dis covers that alien organisms are reproducing and evolving at an alarmingly rapid rate on a meteor that recently crashed on the outskirts of town. Jones plays a fellow teacher and bud. The two make a classic stupid movie blunder by deciding to keep their discovery a secret, even though it’s obvi ous the space beings are going to be a problem of global significance within a matter of days. The military gets wind of what’s going on any way, though, and takes control of the site. Enter Julianne Moore as a CDC scientist who, for no rea son ever supplied, bumps into things and falls down a great deal. Enter, too, Ted Levine (who played Buffalo Bill in T he Silen ce o f th e L am bs) as the general who has the poor taste to take the threat to humankind seriously, and is therefore sup posed to serve as an object of mockery. He’s the square camp manager in M ea tb a lls, the ornery no fun sergeant in Stripes, the humorless New York mayor in Ghostbusters. So, what’s Reitmans point? It’s OK to let* * * * * *
vicious flying dragons, killer monster dogs and all manner of slithery computer-generated predators take over the planet as long as a few imitationMurray quips get tossed off along the way? It appears to have slipped the director’s mind that the hip antiheroes of his early work were battlers against injustice and defeaters of evil, not smug self-promoters who put the world at risk for the sake of advancing their own careers. Somewhere along the way he got his good guys mixed up with his bad guys, and misplaced the recipe for irrever ence. Which might explain the way the filmmaker spent the ’90s. How else to account for the curious decision to stop making films with Murray and start making them with comic giant Arnold Schwarzenegger (K in d e rg a rte n Cop, Twins, Ju nior) instead? While hardly milestones, those movies were at least intermittently diverting and not total embar rassments like the more recent and far more unfor tunate S ix D ays, S even N ig h ts and — the director’s professional nadir — F a th e r’s D a y. I can understand why Ivan Reitman might, at this juncture, feel the need to fall back on the for mula that brought him success in the first place. I just can’t understand why he’d call Duchovny and Jones instead of the original crew in G hostbusters. Sure, he did find a spot for Aykroyd, but that was one of the things about the movie that made me feel old. This time, instead of playing an anti-estab lishment agitants, Aykroyd’s a stuffy authority fig ure, the humorless governor of Arizona, and anoth er over-the-hill object of mockery. The special effects are OK, and there’s an acceptably zany sequence or two, but otherwise, E v o lu tio n is a science project that doesn’t quite make the grade. Summer’s the perfect time for a high-energy effectsfest laced with anarchistic wit. Someone really ought to serve one up. At this stage of the game, regrettably, Reitman would appear the wrong man for the job. ®

Welcome once again to the version of our game in which you get to catch up on your reading. While you’re savoring the paragraphs below, keep an eye open for the titles of 2 6 motion pictures which w e’ve woven into the literature. You never figure it could happen to someone like you. One minute life is beautiful and the next, you’re hanging around the yards next to guys with names like The Animal and Psycho Sal — lost souls who’d just as soon slit your throat in the shower as send you a Valentine. It takes a long time to get over it. The Mexican guy in the cell next to mine is 20 years into a life sentence. “Just visiting,” he likes to tell me every 15 minutes. They’ll never set me free. I’d been under suspicion of selling secrets to the Soviets. Truth was, I sold blow and grass. I’d bounce the occasional check, too. One of the clients I sold to with frequency happened to be a Russian diplomat. The FBI had a van outside my apartment, and one night the crew just spilled out the back and nabbed me on the front steps. For a second I thought I was being held up. Too many headlines. They’ll never admit their mistake. The bureau can’t afford any more bad PR. So I sit in a pitch-black 6-by-9foot concrete hole and try to remember what sunshine feels like on your face early in the month of June. Every now and then, some loser turns up hanged in the morning and, I’ll tell ya, it’s no wonder, boys and girls. (PLEASE ATTACH A LIST OF YOUR ANSWERS.) For more film fun don’t forget to watch “ Art Patrol" every Thursday, Friday and Sunday on News Channel 5!

m oving right a lo n g hen it comes to dance, Vermonter chore ographers tend to think — and work — outside the box. They have to. A short age of suitable space in which to invent and rehearse has driven reputable dancemakers out into the streets. Literally. Hannah Dennison, for example, has created site-specific magic at the Rose Street Bakery, the Burlington Square Mall, the bus barns on North Winooski Avenue and on the avenues of the South End. Earlier this summer, the Flynn Center for the Performing Arts invited Dennison and two other choreographers to come inside for a week. All three brought individual works-in-progress that are sampled in their end-of-the-session show, appropriately titled O u tsid e M o v e s Inside.

Dennisons current piece, derived from “The Bus Barns Project,” taps the talents of seven dancers who honor and mourn a disappearing sense of neighborhood. “Looking for Home” by Mirah Kellc Moriarty and Rodrigo Esteva, who call themselves Duo Danza Nueva, is an examina tion of just where the heart really is. As part of a “feminist dance duo” with Dominique Zeltzman, Bennington College gradu ate Selene Colburn combines movement, spoken text and singing in “Devotion Clusters,” about love, vulnerability and the groupie lifestyle in rock V roll. It’s a rare chance to catch three prime movers under the same roof. Sunday, June 17. Flynn Center, Burlington, 8 p.m. $10-12. Info, 863-5966.

In this age of mad cows and “Frankenfoods,” local farm-to-chef partnerships have never been more marketable. “Creating a Green Bottom Line” is the theme of the sixth annual Vermont Fresh Network Forum, connecting farmers, restau rants and hungry consumers. Deborah Madison, a chef who founded Greens Restaurant in San Francisco and Cafe Escalera in Santa Fe, gives the keynote address on her philosophy of food and describe the challenges and experiences of buying local. In addition, the event includes a reception, a silent auction and a dinner — made with all-indigenous ingredients — catered by the New England Culinary Institute of Montpelier. Monday, June 18. Shelburne Farms Coach Barn, 2-8 p.m. $30. Register, 800 -6 5 8 -8 7 8 7 .

His alter-ego might have been actor Marcello Mastroianni, but, without a doubt, Federico Fellini’s muse was Giulietta Masina, his wife and star of J u lie t o f th e Spirits. Theirs is a great love story, conveyed in N in e , a play “loosely based” on the legendary Italian filmmak er that kicks off the summer sea son of the Stowe Theatre Guild. As a child, Fellini literally ran away with the circus for a few days, but was forced to return to boarding school. That brief experience helped fuel the vivid imagina tion of a man who later became known for lavish images in pictures such as L a D o lce V ita and L a S trada. Presumably, N in e answers the question: What came after 8 1/21
Orson Welles certainly had an affinity for Shakespeare. He directed straightforward film adaptations of O th ello and M a c b e th , as well as C h im es a t M id n ig h t, which incorporated no fewer than five of the Bard’s plays. In 1936, he got a little more creative with V ou -D u M a c b e th , setting it in 19th-century Haiti instead of Scotland. That version is the inspiration behind yet another Vo-du M a c b e th from the National Spirit Project that focuses on the struggle between whites, freed slaves and free Creoles in post-Civil War New Orleans. Although it is still a work-in progress, the performance debuts in Vermont as a staged reading with music by performers — some of whom are local. African and jazz dance, drumming, vocal improvisation and storytelling are being offered in the days leading up to the weekend show. Expect nothing less than magic. Friday, June 15. FlynnSpace, Burlington, 8 p.m. $5. Info, 863-5966.
yes. yes. yes. No, Bloomsday is not a horticultural holiday. It’s the date referenced in U lysses — that expansive and once-banned book by James Joyce that now enjoys a literary cult following. In Dublin, Joyce’s hometown, fans dress up as characters from the novel and take to the streets in celebration every year. In Vermont, it’s an occa sion for noted Joyce scholar Tom Simone to explore the late Irishman’s wordfilled world. And if he can explain U lysses — voted the number-one novel of the 20th century — we should start calling it Simonesday. Each chapter of the book, about Leopold and Molly Bloom, is written in a different style, invariably heavy with symbolism and likely to include puzzles that can only be understood by careful reconstruction of what individual charac ters are thinking or doing. Celebrating it is a lot easier than reading it. Saturday, June 16. Book Rack, Cham plain M ill, W inooski, 4 p.m. Free. Info, 655-0231.
dead ’toons In addition to his role as countercultural music icon, the late Jerry Garcia was also an artist. He painted in any number of styles: neo-impressionism, geometric abstraction, realism, surrealism — you name it. The Grateful Dead frontman, who once attended the California School of the Fine Arts in San Francisco, even used a cartoon-like approach to depict dragons, vampires, politicians and himself. Get a look at the watercolors, lithographs and silkscreens he created between 1985 and 1995 at one of the largest exhibits of his work ever assembled for public display. All of it is for sale, of course. Think of it as an encore.

Dear Cecil, I know about bacteria. I know about viruses, sort of. But what are prions? I’ve been reading about them in connection with mad cow disease, and I gather that they’re some new kind o f germ, and that someone got a Nobel Prize for discovering them. But that’s about it. Maybe I’m just getting old, Cecil, but what the hell — bacteria and viruses weren’t good enough? We need some new kind of high-tech bug that sounds like you make it by pelting muons with bosons in the Tevatron? — Mike Robe, Germany
You’re not the only one to wonder about prions (pronounced PREE-ons). The term was coined by Dr. Stanley Prusiner, who received the Nobel Prize in 1997 for discovering the tiny pathogens. Prion is supposedly an acronym for PROteinaceous INfectious particle. Obvious problem: this gives us proins, not pri ons. I’m not saying this necessarily tells you anything about Prusiner, but you can see where some would have their doubts. (To be fair, some say Prusiner switched the letters for the sake of euphony, though in one’s bitter heart one suspects he did it to produce a cool, scientific-sounding term. Prusiner was traveling when I called, so the question remains unresolved.) You may ask: How come I never heard of prions before now? Probably because, until the appearance of mad cow disease, you never heard o f the diseases prions are believed to cause. These include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, Gerstmann-StrausslerScheinker disease, and fatal familial insomnia, all o f which are fairly rare. Thank God for that. Symptoms of fatal familial insomnia include: four months of progressive insomnia accompa nied by panic attacks and bizarre phobias; five months of halluci nations, panic, agitation, and sweating; three months of total insomnia, weight loss and possibly incontinence; six months of dementia and total insomnia; and finally “sudden death after becoming m ute.” Say, you don’t look at all well. Are you sure you’re getting enough sleep? Almost forgot: kuru. T hat’s the disease in New Guinea believed to be transmitted by infected brain tissue con sumed during cannibalistic funeral rites. Back to mad cow disease, properly known as bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) — literally, “disease in which cow brains deteriorate and wind up looking like a sponge.” As of December 2000, approximately 180,000 cases had been confirmed in Great Britain, plus about 1300 elsewhere, mostly on the continent but also in other parts o f the world, including (eep) Canada. In every case the cattle had been imported from the UK. The number of new cases has dropped sharply since the peak in 1992’93. “The outbreak may have resulted from the feeding of scrapie-containing sheep meat-and-bone meal to cattle,” the Centers for Disease Control inform us. (Scrapie is a disease of sheep.) “There is a strong evidence and general agreement that the outbreak was amplified by feeding ren
dered bovine meat-and-bone meal to young calves.” You getting the message here? I don’t care how hungry you are. Cannibalism is bad. The reason people are so worried about BSE, apart from their concern over the British cattle industry’s economic prospects, is that BSE has been linked to outbreaks of variant CreutzfeldtJakob disease (vCJD), a progressive neurological disorder in which the human brain deteriorates and winds up looking like a sponge. I’m getting so absent-minded I almost forgot to mention this. O M IG O D , AM I G ET T IN G CREUTZFELDT-JAKOB DISEASE? THA T MEANS T H E ALIEN SPACE CO M M A N DERS IN MY TOM ATO PLANTS WILL FLY UP MY N O S TRILS AND INVADE MY BRAIN! Wait, those are the symp toms of fatal familial insomnia, not vCJD. Never mind. Prusiner’s Nobel Prize-winning breakthrough was that BSE and similar brain diseases, collectively known as transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), are caused by the pathologi cal transformation of a protein on the surface o f certain brain cells. As one writer describes it, the protein gets folded the wrong way and becomes a prion, which then causes adjacent proteins to fold the wrong way, which messes up still other proteins — I’m envisioning Ice-9 from Vonnegut’s Cat’s Cradle — and before you know it, your brain looks like something you could use to scrub out the septic tank. Now to the skeptics. Although the existence of prions is gen erally accepted by scientists, there are a few holdouts, notably Laura Manuelidis, a professor of neuropathology at Yale. As she points out, there are dozens of strains o f TSEs, so there must be something more complicated than a simple binary fold/no-fold prion-type mechanism at work. Something like a virus. So far she hasn’t discovered it, but you understand her beef (so to speak). O ther disease processes — bacterial and viral infections, tumors, genetic disorders — have broad applicability and mani fest themselves in numerous ailments great and small. Prions are mostly involved in certain fairly rare (except for BSE) diseases of the brain. More importantly, prions reproduce without benefit of DNA or RNA, the only such instance in all of biology. It offends one’s sense o f aesthetics. (For a good summary of the case against prions, see slate.msn.com/HeyWait/97-10-10/HeyWait.asp.) Whatever the truth of the matter, it’s not just cattle breeders in Britain who hope they get it sorted out soon. — C E C IL A D A M S

Anxious in Alburg Dear Anxious, Listen to yourself: In your letter, you refer to your house as "mine, ” rather than "curs. ” And rather than saying you and Jill discussed the sit uation, you say you "told Jill” your plans. This isn’t about your mother. If you and Jill hope to build a future together, you need to start thinking of her as your partner, rather than your hcuseguest, and to include her in your deci sicns.

Sprains, strains and injuries all heal much more quickly when treated with acupuncture. Pain, swelling and inflammation can be reduced and controlled. Bursitis, arthritis, tendonitis and shin splints also respond to acupuncture. . ; Although tendons and ligaments heal slowly due to a limited blood supply, acupuncture can actually increase the circulation of blood to injured tissues, drastically promoting healing. For golfers, tennis enthusiasts and other athletes, not only can acupuncture help eliminate your pain, it can also enhance your performance.

Over 80% of the adult population will suffer from some form of back or neck pain in their lives. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Acupuncture can often help with problems when other treatments have failed — without « harmful side effects. s These treatments have been proven effective for back and neck pain and other musculoskeletal (bone, muscle and joint) conditions.

N ot to mention the dozens of lifealtering illnesses and conditions caused either directly or indirectly by stress.
