DICK MAZZA DECENT Peter Freyne does a knock-out job demonstrating bigotry at its finest in Vermont [Inside Track, June 14]. If someone wanted to discredit the secular left, they couldn't have done a better job. Unfortunately, Dick Mazza, the person in whose honor the avalanche of venom erupted, is probably having a hard time with a case of mortification, if he's the decent human being I've heard he is. — Lenore Broughton Burlington

What does the call of the wild sound like to you?

THANKS FOR T H E BOOST Thank you for giving downtown Rutland a boost in your previous edition ["Rutland Revival," June 21]. (Too bad the beautiful Paramount Theater wasn't photographed instead of the empty storefront next door.) To further entice southward, may I add that • downtown also features a lively Food Co-op, an "art gym" called Creative Space where young and old can paint, throw pots, use a darkroom, etc., on an hourly basis, and an energized Farmers' Market in Depot Square, featuring live music as well as all the other pleasures you'd expect. Come check us out!

T H E VERDICT ON RUTLAND A sincere thank-you for the coverage of Rutland ["Rutland Revival," June 21]. We "Reagan Democrats" didn't think Seven Days knew that Vermont actually extended south of Middlebury. I've lived in Rutland for 14 years. Before that, I lived in Burlington for nine years. Verdict: While I'm glad Burlington is only 90 minutes away, all I can say is Viva Rut-Vegas. Houses on quiet streets with mountain views for less than six figures, a huge and supportive bicycling community, a rush hour that

Sure, we don't have a lakefront — at least not yet, but I've heard some rumors. By the way, the building you pictured in the story is not the Paramount Theater. It's the one next door. But you knew that, didn't you? — Joe Jiloty Rutland 'ONCE C.I.A., ALWAYS C.I.A.' Inclusion of this Op-Ed ["Bernie's China Syndrome," June 21] seemed completely out of whack with your usual quality commentary. The author seems content with the impending image of what might be termed Mall America or Vacationland USA. Instead of keeping at least some manufacturing in this country, where we have some environmental conscience and regulation, he is apparently content to ship these outside our borders and outside of our jurisdiction. As if polluting 95 percent of the Earth won't impact the good ol' US of A. This image of the U.S. as the corporate offices and the remainder of the world as the factory floor is particularly disturbing, not to mention elitist. Throughout this editorial, Mr. Smith attempts to assume a tone of objective criticism while labeling

Bernie as reactionary, but unfortunately his choice of vocabulary and overall tone give him away. "Rhetoric," "Big Government" and constant reference to "socialism" are obviously intended for their negative connotation. As they say at the CIA, "once CIA, always CIA" (talk about big government, or was that Big Brother?). Thank you very much, Mr. Smith, but I don't trust you further than I can throw you, as my mother used to say. — Peter Collins Flagstaff, Arizona OP-ED SHORT-SIGHTED In an op-ed piece by Haviland Smith ["Bernie's China Syndrome," June 21], the author suggested that Americans should embrace the global economy and focus on education in order to "concentrate on the more technical and difficult economic activities demanded by the new economy." Sounds great, right? Unfortunately, Mr. Smith's argument is not supported by the facts. What he conveniently failed to note is that the new "high-tech" economy does not (and will not) offer such high-skill jobs to all Americans, regardless of their education and training. With the loss of manufacturing jobs overseas, the service sector and retail trades now dominate the economy (57 percent of all jobs in Vermont). Half of these jobs pay

less than a livable wage for a single person. On principle," no one can argue with Mr. Smith's prescription for a better-educated citizenry. However, it is not likely to make much difference to a lot of job seekers because 40 percent of the jobs in Vermont (and elsewhere) require nothing more than short-term on-the-job training. Indeed, eight of the top 10 occupations in Vermont with the largest number of projected annual openings include cashiers, retail salespersons, truck drivers, food-prep workers, waiters, nursing aides/ orderlies, child care workers and janitors. We have a structural problem in the economy that more education cannot cure. We have a two-tiered job market and millions of hardworking Americans are being left behind. It's time we made economic policy based on the facts rather than anecdotes and unexamined assumptions. — Doug Hoffer Burlington Doug Hoffer is author of the Vermont Job Gap Study

Curses, Foiled Again Police in Loomis, California, arrested a 17-year-old boy they said was. trying to imitate a wellpublicized "Rooftop Robber," who cut holes in roofs of some 40 businesses, then lowered himself with a rope. T h e copy-cat suspect was less successful, however. The unidentified juvenile cut through the main roof of a building housing several businesses, but when he lowered himself onto a false ceiling above one store, it gave way, and he came crashing down. "Then it looks like he tried to climb back out by stepping on top of a sink," store owner Beth Dietrich told the Sacramento Bee. "But the sink broke off the wall." Placer County Sheriffs Department Lt. Rick Armstrong said the suspect somehow climbed back onto the false ceiling and was making his way to the ceiling of the adjacent store when it also gave way, and the burglar fell 20 feet to the floor, injuring his ankle. While trying to crawl away undetected, he set off an alarm. He was taken away wearing a neck brace and an ice pack around his ankle.

After sneezing hundreds of times a day for 37 years, Patrick Webster, 52, finally learned the cause was his breakfast cereal. Sixty British doctors failed to diagnose the problem before a private clinic specializing in nutrition discovered Webster was allergic to egg yolk and oats in the muesli he ate every morning. • A glut of bananas prompted Taiwan's Council of Agriculture to direct the island s armed forces to increase their consumption to help fruit growers overcome weak sales. In addition, a dozen of Taiwan's top legislators crowded around parliament and ate bananas to show their support for growers. They even v/rote a song for the occasion, urging people, "Eat bananas, help save banana farmers." Wang Jin-pyng, the speaker of parliament, personally bought 132,000 pounds of bananas, explaining he would sell some of his supply to fellow legislators and give the rest away.

Facing the end of 71 years in power, Mexico's Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) resorted to drastic measures during the campaign to boost its presidential candidate, Francisco Labastida Ochoa. First, the PRI hired male strippers to try to win over women voters. The strippers performed for almost two hours in a poor neighborhood outside Mexico City, impersonating personalities and super heroes and throwing their clothes in the air in time to the music. Five of the "Sexy Boys" peeled down to their white boxer shorts that spelled out "Vote for PRI." Noting she had never seen anything like it in a Mexican political campaign, said Josefina Franzoni, an analyst at the Mexican Institute of Political Studies.

LOST AND FOUND: Like every good dancer, Sharry Underwood was in the right place at the right time. Almost 60 years ago, the Burlington mover and shaker stumbled into a class with Ted Shawn — a former divinity student who believed in the spiritual side of movement. In retrospect, it was a historic moment — the "father of modern dance" imparting crucial kinetic knowledge on the mount that would become Jacobs Pillow. And, unlike all the other dancing disciples gathered at his knee, Underwood took notes. Last year she reconstructed 27 of his works — plus his warm-up exercises — and arranged most of them into a performance that sold out at the Flynn. This week she and her company will return the "Lost Dances of Ted Shawn" to their rightful place in the Berkshires. At the invitation of the Pillow, arguably the most prestigious summer dance festival in the world, the six-member Vermont troupe will have an audience this week in Massachusetts that includes choreographic curators, professional archivists and former Sharry Underwood Shawn dancer Barton Murnaw. The performance repeats in Burlington on July 25 at City Hall Auditorium. How does a dance come to be "lost" in the first place? Of all the art forms, movement is most evanescent. Unlike music, there is no real notation that describes all the possible movements, nor the style in which they are meant to be performed. Dancers learn their parts from the choreographer, through imitation. And before videotape, that physical memory was the only means of preserving the dance. Classical works like "Les Sylphides" still exist, because, quite simply, people remembered the steps accurately enough to pass them on to the next generation. To his credit, Shawn made a serious documentary effort. "He would print out a mimeographed sheet of the dance steps," Underwood recalls. "He wrote them out in English, but he also used his own terminology — like, he would say 'pulse' or 'stroke' and you'd have to know what that was." Oddly, Shawn charged 25 cents a page for this archival material, and students, including Underwood, happily paid up. The actual dances, Underwood says, are quite diverse, "and that's going to surprise people," she promises. In the annals of history, Shawn is credited for promoting the role of the man in modern dance, an interest which later turned into his own all-male company. He also co-founded the "Denishawn" technique and troupe with wife and partner Ruth St. Denis, who was obsessed with all things Asian. Alumna Martha Graham, who came up in the Denishawn company, later disavowed their choreographic vision as "weakling exoticism of a transplanted orientalism." With ballet, flamenco, Native American and "minimal" dances on the program, this resurrected repertoire shows Shawn in a slightly different light.

IN BRIEF: Every book has its juicy bits, right? Not A Hell of a Place to Lose a Cow, Tim Brookes' G-rated travelogue published this month by National Geographic. The Essex author, a proper Englishman, was "stunned" when parts of his road-trip reportage were rejected by his publisher because they were too raunchy for an "educational institution." Brookes' only other brush with censorship was on National Public Radio, when his Gulf War commentary on SCUD missiles got shot down by an editor. The higher-up explained, "This is no time for the expression of opinion." Thankfully, North Country Public Radio doesn't seem to have a problem with his commentary . . . Snail mail or e-mail? The Flynn Theatre is giving its patrons a choice this year, thanks to a new digital communication system that also permits you to buy tickets on-line. Until now, the Flynn has used past purchasing behavior to determine what info to send out to whom. "We know who our dance audience is, who our jazz audience is, who our world-music audience is," says Marketing Director Tom Ayres. "This adds another layer to how we communicate with those folks." Right now the Web site address is www.flynntheatre.org, but soon will change to www.flynncenter.org as the growing arts complex faces an impending name change. At least two things are business as usual, though: The season brochure is in the works and will be in homes by the end of the month; and you still have to get off your duff to come to the theater . . . Lost Nation Theater faced a dilemma in staging Camping with Henry and Tom, a fast-paced comedy of fictionalized history that puts that Henry Ford, Thomas Edison and Warren Harding in the same weekend getaway car. The play opens with an accident — their rig strikes a deer — but "we realized we were never going to get a Model T up the steps of City Hall into our performance space," says Robyn Osiecki. So the players shot the scene as a film, which will be projected "like an old-time movie" in the first few minutes of the show that opens Thursday in Montpelier, Osiecki says. "You'll hear a big crash, and we have a full-sized tree that is going to fall from one side of the stage to the other." Whatever it takes . . . ®

Watching the birdies takes lent McFarland to great lengths — and heights B Y R U T H HOROWITZ

hat do you call a guy who spends 18 hours a day braving biting insects, enduring extreme weather and clambering down hidden precipices while bushwhacking through some of the densest offtrail brush on Mount Mansfield — all in an effort to follow the movements of a certain small, brown song bird? "An- idiot," says his co-worker. "A freak," suggested his predecessor. But Kent McFarland, an environmental biologist and researcher with the Vermont Institute of Natural Science, prefers the more flattering designation, "Bicknologist." His investigation of the elusive Bicknells thrush involves just this type of extreme birding. Working with research director Christopher Rimmer, about a dozen field workers and more volunteers, McFarland has spent six years tagging, blood-testing, radio-tracking and videotaping the bird. He's emerged as one of the world's leading experts on Bicknells thrush — a rare avian variety that wasn't even considered a distinct species until 1995 and today is ranked as a top priority for protection. Along the way, McFarland also has played with a whole bunch of high-geek technology, become ultra-sensitive to inaccurate bird songs in movie soundtracks and, he claims, developed a natural immunity to black flies. There are only about 25,000 Bicknells thrushes in existence, and those numbers are apparently diminishing. The bird spends its winters in the broad-leafed forests of the Dominican Republic. It summers at 3000 feet on isolated mountain peak

"islands" in New York, New England and Eastern Canada. In Vermont, concentrated communities can be found on Mt. Mansfield and Stratton Mountain — and so can McFarland. O n Mansfield, he works out of a barracks-like, cinder-block structure nestled in the side of the mountain near the top of the Octagon ski lift, a place McFarland and his co-workers call "the highest basement in the world." During snow season, the ski patrol uses the building. This time of year, it has a decidedly student-housing feel, with clippings about snoring taped up over cots, bird books and binoculars laid out on the shelves and

Piled up between uses, the netting looks like a cheap wig. When he's out in the field, McFarland may top off his costume with a multi-pocketed vest. In one pocket, he might store a radio signal receiver the size of a fat paperback and connected to a six-prong, hand-held antenna. Over his vest, he may carry his brand new, bright yellow, $10,000 Trembler global-positioning device that resembles something from a low-budget sci-

McFarland majored in environmental studies at Allegheny College. After getting hooked on birds during a three-year stint with the Peace Corps in the tropics of Paraguay, he earned his masters at Antioch New England. At 33, he still looks very much the student, with ovoid wireframes, a VINS baseball cap pulled over his short||l|awberry blond hair, baggy cargf> pants, sneakers and a plaid flannel shirt with the buttons cut off. This last detail isn't his attempt at a fashion statement, he's quick to

fi thriller and communicates with a satellite to pinpoint within a meter the location of, say, a nest. "I enjoy the technology aspect as much as the wildlife," McFarland confesses. But what's particularly exciting about the technology, he adds, is how much it has helped his team learn about Bicknells, and how quickly. "People always glorify field biology. They think it's like the Discovery Channel," comments McFarland, whose work was featured several years ago on Discovery's "All Bird TV" show. But just as every minute of fascinating nature film requires hundreds of hours of tedious footage,

each morsel of useful data added to the VINS study represents hundreds of hours of labor. As Jeff Farrington, a graduate student who works with McFarland, puts it, "With this sort of project, you've gotta make hay while the haying's good. They're haying now." O n the mountain, the work day for both the birds and the birders begins in the pre-dawn darkness, just before 4 a.m. The scientists set their nets, and any Bicknells they manage to trap is fitted with a uniquely colorcoded metal band around its leg and a tiny radio transmitter on its back. The transmitters are attached to the birds with fishing line looped around the tops of the wings, backpack-style. Once the birds have preened themselves, the gray plastic lumps of the receivers get hidden under the feathers, and all that shows is the projecting end of the six-inch wire antenna. Before a thrush is released, the researcher will also take a few drops of its blood for D N A testing. Until as late as 10 p.m., field workers will track and record the thrushes' movements manually, following the signals sent out by their radio receivers, and on videotape, with cameras trained on the birds' nests. Either approach tests the investigator's endurance, literally plunging the scientist into the seemingly impenetrable underbrush that the Bicknells thrush calls home. "If you see a patch that's so thick you say, 'I don't want to go in there,' that's where it will be," McFarland advises. One such patch is located within a stones throw of the commercial transmitter tower at

the foot of the mountain's nose. The rain has finally stopped, and a swirl of clouds is lifting off the chin. We stride past the sign that identifies the area as "restricted for scientific study only" and step off the marked path. The sharp needles of young balsams scrape our skin and dead branches ricochet towards our eyes as we fight our way through the growth, pausing every few steps to check the dancing meter on Farrington's portable radio receiver reporting, cold, warmer, hot, warm as the distance between us and the thrush contracts and expands. Underfoot, the ground is carpeted with brilliant green moss, and it feels soft and irregular from the decaying dead wood beneath. It's like swimming through trees and stepping on pillows. From somewhere above us, McFarland hears a thin zi-zi-zizi-zi-zi-zi-zi-zi. "Blackpoll overhead," he announces, binoculars to his eyes. Then, "Male Bicknell with a bunch of food." "Female with a feather," Farrington replies, also looking. "She's still building?" "Psh, psh, psh, psh, psh," McFarland whistles softly between his teeth, hoping to conjure the male Bicknell back into his sights long enough to let him check the bird's ID bracelet. A light rain begins to fall. Flies drift around our faces. McFarland whistles again and his call is answered. "Purple dark blue light blue x on the right," he tells Farrington, who writes it all down in his waterproof notebook. Before leaving the thicket, we take a look at the nest itself, a tight fist about five feet off the ground, snuggled in the crook

EATING LIKE BIRDS A Bicknell's thrush feeds the kids.

Montpelier, Vermont take multiple partners. Females lay four eggs at a time, each of which may have been fertilized by a different father. Males mate with several females and help tend all the nestlings they may have sired. Radio tracking doesn't always go this smoothly. O n e time, McFarland and his crew found an abandoned nest full of dying fledglings. T h e y followed the mother's radio signal all the way to Underhill, where they found her transmitter, sans thrush, among the stinking carnage in the nest of a Sharp-shinned hawk. Another Bicknell's was once found, dead but still fully intact, in a weasel's hole. McFarland also tells the story of the time a nest was too high for him to see into, so he blindly reached in with his hand to check the contents. Rather than feeling smooth eggs or hot, fuzzy heads, "I felt goo," he remembers, grimacing. T h e chicks had died, he explains, "and when I pulled out my hand it had maggots all over it." While hawks and weasels prey on adult Bicknell's thrushes, red squirrels make short work of their eggs. In one V I N S video, a red squirrel can be heard offcamera for quite a while before the predator finally flushes the

contents. Once the shell is empty, the squirrel tosses it aside and starts on the next one. W h e n all the eggs have been consumed, the squirrel urinates into the nest. To avoid giving squirrels and other predators any extra advantage, McFarland and his coworkers try to reach the nests they study by a variety of different routes. But the scientists acknowledge that the biggest threats to Bicknell's thrush are in the air and land themselves, both here and in the Caribbean. McFarland, who wrote his masters thesis about the impact of road construction on bird species in Belize, is studying the effects of ski-trail development on the thrush. Air pollution is also a major concern. "The acid precipitation is wicked bad," McFarland observes. A recent U V M study. showed that the clouds that so frequently cloak M t . Mansfield are "like lemon juice." Trees bathed in these clouds will eventually die, and thrush nesting sites will disappear. Airborne mercury gets into the birds' system, threatening their health. T h o u g h tests are still incomplete, McFarland believes they will turn up "significant" mercury content in the blood of the birds.

at the inn than last winter. With more and more of the forest being replaced by banana and cocoa palm plantations or "just ratty old fields used for cattle," McFarland says, all but 3 percent of the birds' original habitat is gone. "Conservation down there is less than wonderful," he opines. "There are too many humans on that island." That may well be. But why does the world even need Bicknell's thrush? "Why does the world need humans?" McFarland replies. "I guess they have just as much right to be here as we do." For all his avian advocacy, however, the researcher wonders how he got hooked on a species that plays so hard-to-get. " W h y didn't I take up mallards?" he muses as he lumbers down the side of the mountain chasing after the next dim radio signal. T h e n I could just set up a lawn chair in the middle of the Woodstock town green, set out a six-pack and spend the whole day just marking down the birds' color bands." T h e answer is undoubtedly in the numbers. If mountaineers scale peaks "because they're there," Bicknologists like McFarland study their thrush because they may not be there much longer. ®

BY BLAKE MAHER

'll get this right out in the open: I work for a dot-com company. Dumped my literary job for electronic gadgetry and stock options. And I have to say I made the switch fairly easily, because I'm no Luddite. I like the little button on my keychain that opens my car door. I enjoy microwave popcorn as much as the next guy. But lately, I'll admit, a small seed of doubt has begun to grow in my mind — not so much doubting technology as suspecting we don't need quite so much of it. So when a friend recently asked if I'd like to get away from it all and go tubing, I jumped at the chance. Besides, using the opportunity to write about tubing would allow me to multi-task! I found the idea of a lazy afternoon inner-tubing down a river extremely appealing, partly because just thinking about it put me in mind of my childhood. Of summers spent with various cousins — more than 30 on just this side of the family — at my grandfather's camp in the Adirondacks. It was a rustic place with no shower, no telephone and no TV, where days were devoted to nothing more complicated than swimming, catching frogs and circling around bonfires in the evening. But possibly more than anything else, I remember the

inner tubes. The owners of the camp next door — a family with nine kids of their own — seemed to have an endless supply. Some were regular-sized, but others were monstrous truck tubes that stood taller than me. On the big ones we did something we called "rocking" — a sport that amounted 15£o partnering up with a cousin roughly the same size, one on I lather side of the tube, legs dangling through the center. Once balance had been established, you started leaning back, first one then the other, as the tube slowly lifted out of the water, higher and higher, until it was practically standing on end. Then it would splash down into the water and rock up onto its other end. The whole point of this, of course, was to dump the other cousin in the water. It was silly, simple and hilariously fun. So I scheduled tubing for the busy Fourth of July weekend, allotting the half-day I deemed adequate for floating down a river. Sunday dawned sunny and bright. The temperature was warm, with a modest breeze. The few clouds in the sky were white and puffy. A perfect day, it seemed. But my well-made plans soon began to go awry. First, a half-hour before we were to begin our adventure, the other couple called to say they couldn't make it. This left me and Zeena in a tight spot, because to properly execute my plan we needed two

cars -— one to leave at our departure point and a second where we would finish. Since our destination — Sharon, Vermont — was more than an hour away, Zeena and I decided to make do with a single vehicle. I felt my stress level rising. The second obstacle came up when we stopped for breakfast. The place was known for fine atmosphere and excellent breakfasts, but not, as it turned out, for fast service. Two long hours later, we were back in the car, headed south on 1-89. By now it was past noon, and I began to wonder whether I'd be able to accomplish the three other projects I'd slated for that evening. Sharon is one of those picturesque Vermont towns flatlanders would call "quaint" — attractive houses dotting the roadsides, stands of lush maples and the White River winding with elegant ease along one side of the road. Near the center of the village is the Sharon Trading Post, where my friend had said we could rent inner tubes for $4 each. As we entered, Zeena pointed to a sign on the door that read "2 tubes left to rent" — only the "2" had been crossed out and replaced by a "1." Zeena did not look pleased. Inside, I grabbed the last tube and explained to the clerk that I was writing an article about inner-tubing down the White River, and that I would mention their store, hoping that might encourage her to magically produce another tube. No such luck. She laughed good-naturedly and said I was lucky to get the one tube. Seems that tubing is pretty popular along this stretch of the river. All 34 of the Trading Post's tubes are gone by 10 o'clock in the morning, she said. People usually call ahead to reserve them. Then she added, "But the two of you can both fit on the one, no problem." Zeena looked doubtful. This wasn't one of the giant inner tubes of my youth; it was an average-sized tube, designed to carry an average-sized person. But, worried about our schedule, I took the tube, determined to get on with it. So off we went, scoping out the river for a good place to start and end our tubing expedition. We decided to put in a few miles north of Sharon at the bridge in South Royalton, and to float down the river as long and far as we wanted, at which point we would take out and walk back to the car. We tied our small cooler to the tube — I congratulated myself for remembering to bring a rope — slathered on sunscreen and proceeded to the water. Now the challenge was to

bottom hit another TUBING MAKES THE WORLD GO ROUND Better luck in the Mad River fit ourselves on the tube, finding a position that was relatively comfortable and not too obscene. Fifteen minutes later, my stress level rising again, I started thinking this was not going to work out. My arm was going numb and the damn valve was sticking into my leg. Zeena appeared to be having similarly negative thoughts. The experience was forcing us into new territory around shared personal space. We twisted and adjusted, complained and arranged. We had put in at a fairly shallow point, and our combined weight on the tube was causing my butt to drag along the ground. I felt like Homer Simpson, thinking "D'oh!" every time my bottom hit another rock. But soon the river grew deeper. We found a satisfactory position, laying side by side on our bellies. We watched the world turn slowly around us. We cracked a beer. Tubing began to work its magic. I'm not sure how to describe float-

ing on a river; it's just a different world. And, like the pace of the river itself, the relaxation it gives is quiet and gradual. Little by little I found myself letting go of tension I didn't know I had. Our conversation drifted from the mundane to loftier topics — religion, ethics, integrity, loss, appreciation, community, love, that sort of thing. It was easy, coaxed out of us, as it were, by the surroundings: a mother duck with a string of ducklings paddling behind her; the silvery undersides of leaves in the breeze; the slow rhythm of the water. I felt that elusive fusion of body and mind. And I know it sounds hokey, but at one point I looked up and saw animal shapes in the clouds, just like at our Adirondack camp so many years ago. Of course, Zeena and I weren't entirely deep and introspective. We spent awhile testing who could name familiar TV theme songs from the fewest number of notes. I'm sure I

complained about a thing or two. Even so, I ended up feeling balanced, like I understood the relative worth of things, of time — and of technology. I was reminded how easy it is to float off-course in life. After three hours, we climbed out of the river, sunsoaked and relaxed, feeling in tune with the world. We got to talking with a nearby swimmer, who offered us a ride back to our car. The gesture was perfectly in keeping with the tone the day had taken on. I thought briefly of the work waiting for me at home, and that I wouldn't be getting it done that evening. I didn't care. Before we left the river, I looked around one last time, closed my eyes and listened. I heard the sound of the wind in the leaves, of water rushing over stones, of children's laughter. And it wasn't virtual — it was real. ©

Fish and Wildlife targets women with a wild weekend outdoors

BY LESLIE AYLSWORTH

here's a tough new species roaming the Vermont woods. She can hunt with a bow, build an emergency shelter, forage for food and make her own fly-fishing ties. Last month, up in the Northeast Kingdom, I encountered 90 of these fearless females — in fact, I became one, turning a passion for the outdoors into skills for all sorts of adventure. Arriving at the Craftsbury Outdoor Center on a sunny Friday morning in mid-June, I parked my little Honda amidst a sea of wagons and sport utility vehicles. In the open field between the dormitory-style lodging and yellow-and-white striped dining tent, a group of sporty-looking women, aged twenty- to seventysomething,

were gathered in a circle. Hunters and hippies, natives and flatlanders, they were clad in everything from camou and rubber boots to long flowered skirts and woven hats. Every summer for the past six years, the Vermont Department of Fish & Wildlife has sponsored a three-day program in Craftsbury called "Becoming an Outdoors-Woman." Its purpose is to encourage women throughout the state to enjoy the outdoors with new confidence. Until recently, the wilderness has been almost exclusively a man's domain. Fifty years ago, for instance, fly fisherwomen were as rare as, well, SUVs. The state is trying to change that with a weekend of classes, ranging from firearm safety to orienteering, that teach women to be successful hunters, canoers, kayakers, campers, archers and

anglers — not to mention how to start a fire without a handy box of matches. What's more, these workshops offer the opportunity to learn in a supportive and non-threatening atmosphere from experts in each field. The "students" include rank beginners who have never picked up a gun or paddled a kayak as well as more experienced outdoorswomen who just want to polish the skills they've already learned — often from the men in their lives. "It's a lot easier to learn from an objective person than your husband," conceded Jane Williams of Fairfield. "Its not like going to deer camp with your boyfriend, or having your husband teach you and arguing." After the circular "welcoming ceremony," we walked to the rustic dining hall and filled our plates with a hearty, camp-style chili lunch. I was amazed to hear the variety of backgrounds my tablemates brought to the program: a 70-year-old retired nurse who was learning to shoot a gun; an obstetrician who had never camped; a special-education teacher who hoped to bring back canoeing skills to her students.

O n e woman's husband was so excited about the prospect of her fly fishing that he bought her all the gear for her birthday. O n e mother and daughter team were there just to bond. After lunch, I joined a group of beginner kayakers for their first lesson at Big Hosmer Pond, a short walk from the dining hall. O n the shore, Stuart Farina, an energetic teacher from Lyndon State College, practically bounced around as he offered pointers on safety and the right gear. His enthusiasm for the sport was contagious. While nascent canoers practiced warm-up stretches on the adjacent beach, Farina taught us kayakers four basic paddling stokes — front, back, sweep and draw. T h e n it was time to hit the water, still cold from this year's heavy spring rains. "I love to charge the waves," Farina announced. "But as beginners, you probably won't want to do that, so I'll show you how to save yourself." I think we were all relieved that he "flipped" alone to demonstrate a self-rescue technique. Meanwhile, in the nearby woods, wilderness survival instructor Grant Mitchell was teaching his group to build a fire the low-tech way — using flint and materials collected from the environment. "It's good to feel comfortable in the wilderness because you never know what's going to happen," suggested Mitchell, director of the Colchester-based International Maritime and Wilderness Network. O n e young woman in the group noted she was happy to be learning wilderness survival because, although her boyfriend is a great shot when hunting, he frequently gets lost in the woods.

For many participants, like 29-year-old Heather Desranleau of Franklin, the appeal of these workshops is that they are designed specifically for women. She likes to h u n t with her boyfriend, she said, but wanted to learn the skills on her own as well. "It feels more comfortable and less intimidating," said Desranleau. "It's a different learning stream when it's all women, because men know a lot about the outdoors already and it becomes so second-nature for

"Men think they already know how to do it, and women would rather learn through a structured, more patient approach." That may have been exactly what Christine Thomas had in mind when she founded the "Becoming an OutdoorsWoman" program nearly a decade ago. Then a resource management professor at the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point, Thomas conducted a survey that discovered many women were interested in participating in male-dominated outdoor sports, but were kept from doing so by several barriers. These included a lack of appropriate equipment for women, especially clothing, being squeamish and intimidated, and a lack of education and information — particularly about hunting and fishing. Based on the survey results, Thomas organized the first allwomen workshop in 1991. It was an instant hit, and is now offered to more than 10,000 women by fish and game agencies in 44 states and nine Canadian provinces each year. Since the Vermont Department of Fish and Wildlife — a divi- , sion of the Agency of Natural Resources — first offered the program six years ago, the workshops have taken off. This year, organizers in Craftsbury decided to try a new "Learning Stream" system, gearing participants to concentrate on a single activity rather than allowing them to sign up for just any workshop. "The learning streams were developed with two ideas in mind," explained coordinator Gyan Baird. "It allows participants to bond with other women with similar interests while becoming more comfortable in a discipline, so they can go home and teach that discipline to their children and oth»

ers. T h e majority of the women who came to Craftsbury this year were from Vermont, but some traveled from New York, Massachusetts and New Hampshire. It is a testament to

the popularity of the program that about a quarter of the participants were repeats, some for the fifth or sixth year in a row. Back in the dining tent for a home-style spaghetti dinner, I sat next JoAnn Merriam of Ludlow, back for her fourth time. For her the program represents an opportunity to get away from the pressures of a busy life. "I've done the same classes over again, but it's always fun to learn again," she said. "It is a great getaway weekend — away from phones, cars and the rest of- the world." That first night, the dining room was abuzz as women shared the highlights of the first day's workshops with new-found friends. Thirty-four-year-old Elyse Gluck of East Montpelier placed several long, thin mushrooms from the wild edibles workshop in hot water to make tea. "The workshop was really great, and it is amazing how much information you can get in three hours," she enthused. After a couple minutes, Gluck tasted her tea. "It tastes like hot water," she pronounced, "which is fine, because the instructor said too much can act as a laxative." O n e of the youngest in our group, 22-year-old Jennifer Maclver, was able to learn the hunting skills necessary for certification thanks to a scholarship from the Barre Fish and G a m e Club. T h e weekend fee, which includes instruction, materials, equipment, accommodations and meals, ranges from $160 to $210, depending on when you enroll and whether you camp or stay in the dorm-style housing. Organizers are considering a winter weekend this year, teaching cold-weather sports like ice fishing, ice climbing, snowshoeing and skiing. "We have data that shows 80 percent of Vermonters enjoy nature, whether it be hunting, fishing or looking for salamanders with their kids," said Vermont Fish & Wildlife Commissioner Ron Regan, who greeted our group the first day. "One of the best ways to excite people about the outdoors is to experience it." ® *

Trailer Parked ever, for what eventually begins to unfold, after we have stared expectantly at the "caravan" for some time. Eiko and Koma, all whitened skin and gauzy garb, emerge from out of nowhere and just as quickly disappear into the caravan. It is the first and last time they will do anything in haste all evening. The couple, New Yorkers since 1976 and "choreographers" of more than 20 pieces, have made a career out of doing very little very slowly. A bystander who saw their "River" project a year or two ago warns me of the glacial pacing. Yet she has returned to watch Eiko and Koma again. I take this as a good sign. An assistant comes out to open the first set of double doors — each side of the caravan has a pair, and when all are opened, we can watch from any side. What the first opening reveals is a "set" that, from a distance of some 30 feet, resembles a pile of rags drifted to one side of the floor, underlit in red so as to appear molten. From the ceiling, meanwhile, hang hundreds of white "stalactites" in a clump. The lighting is stark and exquisite. After this, nothing happens — not for awhile, anyway. It is like watching an exceptionally turgid lava lamp. Not wanting to miss anything, all eyes are on the insides of the caravan. Where are they? When will they appear? I decide this snail's pace is ideal for a reporter: You can look away to scribble a few lines and nothing will have changed. But I am wrong; when I look up, I am startled to see a head — it turns out to be Koma's — has appeared, as has some unidentifiable piece of Eiko. As if on cue, we all move closer. The other double doors are opened now, and we

wilight is settling over the Ethan Allen Homestead, already beyond shadows and into that netherlight when true believers expect fairies to appear. In fact, a human-made "fairy ring" of paper-bag candles surrounds something that looks part horse trailer, part meat locker, parked in the middle of a lawn between the children's garden and old Ethan's cabin. The sky, turning Maxfield Parrish blue, holds a quarter-moon in stunning embrace; the air is damp and chill. Some 80 people have turned out to see "The Caravan Project," by Japanese performers Eiko and Koma, presented by the Flynn in this outdoor "theater." Squadrons of mosquitoes have also appeared. But this audience is armed — with Skin So Soft, citronella-smelling lotions and bug sprays. I'm not sure any of us is prepared, how-

I find myself at first resentful to be sucked into this slo-mo vortex. It feels manipulative. Is this some kind ofstatement on how fast-paced and shallow our modern lives are? I sneer inwardly. Like, I don't already know that?\ flippantly nickname these Japanese discipline-freaks Icicle and Komatose. So what if they are MacArthur Fellows? But sucked in I am — I can't help myself. I look around and see that everyone else is, too, except, perhaps, for a few bewildered children. We are both tortured and seduced by this lack of speed, I think. What does this mean? About three-quarters of the way through, I feel certain something will happen, some surprise. I am riveted. I notice my breathing has slowed in sympathy. The wait is excruciating, like excitement on Quaaludes. My mind floods with metaphors, explanations, meanings. I opt for This is the answer to a Zen koan before discarding them all. Finally, the assistant comes around and closes the doors, one set at a time. Both relieved and disappointed, I move around accordingly, holding out hope that the corpses will look out, wave, anything, before the casket is sealed. Nope. Eiko and Koma stay their course, as if undisturbed slumber was the goal all along. Despite the death analogy, there's something womb-like about all this. Now chilled to the bone, I head immediately for the relative warmth of my own caravan, wondering what old Ethan would have thought. ©

I discover the "rags" are strips of thin cloth, crafted around some kind of stick-like armature below, and dangling feather-like above. The strips are red, orange, yellow and white. The lighting everso-subtly brightens. And so Eiko and Koma begin. For the next hour or so, they ooze into minutely different positions, rising up, sinking back down, stretching, curling — usually apart, occasionally and briefly together. Their heads are thrown back like baby birds', eyes and mouths closed; they never register the slightest discomfort, impatience, cognition of the audience or, for that matter, perturbation about the mosquitoes now buzzing

A cyclist gears ap for fun in Franklin County

If you think you need to travel to Burlington for a full-service bike shop, you're going the wrong way! White's Green Mountain Bikes has been full-servicing Franklin County since 1993, providing repairs, tune-ups, parts and accessories. O u r service department is second t o none and we stand behind every purchase w i t h pride and dignity. So, if a new bike, accessory or service is what you're looking for, there's no better or closer shop in Franklin

ike a cross-country skier searching for better snow in Ispring, Chittenden County mMMs cyclists who want quieter roads and unspoiled vistas must escape to the countryside. T h e greater Burlington area, where I live, just isn't the place it used to be for safe, scenic bicycling. T h e roads are not for the faint of heart, and even the bike paths are often swarming. Rural Franklin County, on the other hand, is a beautiful and not-so-distant alternative. It boasts a "multi-use" path — part of the Rails to Trails Program established in 1998 — that serves bicyclists and hikers in the summer and snowmobiles in the winter. Running from St. Albans to Richford, the path follows the Missisquoi River and surrounding valley on a former railroad line. This means no steep hills, just gradual grades — slow burn but not much pain, like a Jane Fonda treadmill. T h e cross ties and track have been replaced by a hardpack surface that makes for a pretty good ride for hybrid and mountain bikes, a passable one for road bikes with touring tires. T h e whole trail is 30 miles end to end. O u t on my trusty seven-speed foldup, I split the route into two sections: St. Albans to Sheldon Springs, and Sheldon Springs to Richford. T h e first section of the Rails to Trails path begins at the old train station in St. A, on the northern edge of downtown. You can catch it at the creemee stand, just past the broken rail bridge on the right side of the road.

places, but that inconvenience is overruled by great views of the river, Jay Peak and the surrounding valley with an occasional black-and-white patch of Holsteins. This leg of the ride goes right through Enosburg Falls — a bonus for architecture buffs. Check out the Summerset Hotel, the Opera House and some of the grand homes along the trail. There are also a couple of decent places to eat — refuel with one of those great juice drinks at the Fresh Planet Cafe. A beautiful graveyard on the way out of town provides a pleasant — and quiet — spot for a picnic. Just don't forget to clean up before you take off for Richford.

f your preference is pavement, there are plenty of road rides in Franklin County that will knock your athletic socks off. My favorite is from Richford to Frelighsburg, Quebec, back through Berkshire and East Berkshire, where you can return to Richford (about 35 miles) or head to Montgomery or Enosburg Falls. This is a moderately difficult ride with long, gradual hills — some spots, I admit, will make you wonder

is a gradual incline until you reach the apple orchards. Here's where you stop for that terrific view of the Champlain Valley. But keep your eyes on the road going down — the surface is good, but it's roller-coaster steep. After this it's an easy ride along a stream into Frelighsburg. This town is a Quebec version of a quaint New England village — a few less antique shops and more French restaurants. There's a tourist bureau, just over the bridge on the left, with lots of well-detailed bike routes around the Eastern Townships, and lists of sights, restaurants and wineries. From here take Rt. 237 to Berkshire. It's about three miles, and you'll go back through U.S. customs. This section is a pleasant, gradual uphill with one short, steep hill coming into Berkshire. At the junction of Rts. 118 and 130, you could take a nice alternative ride to East Franklin and Franklin, passing by Lake Carmi. If you go straight into Berkshire, follow Rt. 118 to East Berkshire. This section is spectacular, even if it is a series of hills. T h e grade peaks like a crescendo with a view that stretches from Jay Peak to Mt. Mansfield, with the Missisquoi River threading its way through

Keep your eyes on the road going down — the surface is good, but] it's roller-coaster steep

Sheldon Springs is on Rt. 105, about 15 miles north of St. Albans. O n the way you ride through farm country and woodlands, crossing some dirt roads as well as Rt. 105. There are no sweeping vistas along the first section. Its pleasure is the peace and solitude that can be found off the road, and possible glimpses of deer, foxes and lots of birds. T h e second leg of the trail plays tag with Rt. 105 and the Missisquoi River. You have to cross the highway in several

why you're doing this. T h e answer lies in panoramic vistas — including, at one point, a view of the whole valley and mountain peaks. Sound like your kind of cycle? T h e n start in Richford and follow Rt. 105 east through the town. Just over the bridge, take a left following the river, past the park on your left and a fantastic Victorian house on your right. Stay on this road — yes, up that hill. This first part to the border is pretty steep, so stop about halfway up to take a breather and admire the valley and Jay Peak behind you. My riding advice is to never look at a hill from the bottom, but from half-way up. After you go through customs at the Canadian border, the road

the valley below you. Even on a cloudy day it's quite a sight. From the crossroads at Berkshire Elementary School, there's a wonderful, very long downhill into the village of East Berkshire. Like most bike routes in Vermont, this one reconfirms that what goes up must come down. In East Berkshire, if you wish, you can take a side trip down Rt. 118 to Montgomery and Montgomery Center. This is a truly scenic road despite the lack of a shoulder. It follows a great stream, which has three covered bridges along the way. T h e farms are tidy, the villages pristine, the terrain as level as you'll find in Vermont. And after all those hills, you'll be wishing the world was flat right about then. ®

rancophones know there are two French words for river: fleuve, which is reserved for the great, continent-draining rivers of the world, and riviere, which is used to define everything else. We — and everyone in Quebec — may call the St. Lawrence a river, but it is officially a fleuve. Even if it were not a fleuve, the river defines the city historically. From the First Nations who settled on the South Shore at Kahnawake, to the French and English explorers who followed the river into the heart of the continent, to the thousands of cargo ships that still make the Port of Montreal one of the most active in North America, this river has made the city what it is. Human habitation has also brought pollution and degradation, of course. The problem reached a crisis point a few years ago when the Beluga whales — which migrate from the Gulf of St. Lawrence upriver to Quebec City — died on route, and their poisonfilled carcasses had to be disposed of as hazardous waste. Aluminum plants, which thrive on the cheap electricity provided by HydroQuebec, took some of the blame. Citizens, politicians and industries were forced to respond, and there has since been plenty of debate, if not progress, on the clean-up effort. Happily, though, these negotiations don't make Montrealers any less enthusiastic about their "big water." Nothing seems to interfere with their simple enjoyment of the river — on it or from the shore. All summer long there are waterrelated events and sports aplenty around the entire circumference of He de Montreal, but especially along the St. Lawrence. A great place to start your own explorations is the Biosphere, right smack in the middle of the river on Pare des lies. Not to be confused with the Biodome next to the Olympic Stadium, the Biosphere is a fantastic exhibition space located in and around the Buckminster Fuller geodesic dome built for Expo '67. Interactive and fun ecoeducational exhibits are dedicated

entirely to the importance of clean water, emphasizing the ecosystems of the St. Lawrence and the Great Lakes. Here there are excellent multimedia shows and special exhibits, including one on Jacques-Yves Cousteau's Calypso explorations. The Biosphere offers a wonderful bilingual introduction to the geology, ecology and history of commerce in the region that is suitable for adults and kids. Managed by Environment Canada, it is open from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. all sum-

what it is

15 boats in six Quebec cities on the river, from Montreal to Petit Saguenay to the north. You can choose from a variety of excursion types — breakfast and brunch, full-day tours, sunset and romantic evening dinners. Some are keyed to special events, such as the jazz and fireworks festivals. Reach Croisieres AML at 1-800-667-3131, or at www.croisieresaml.com/english/ind ex.htm. There's also a Bateau-Mouche, modeled after the boats that cruise through Paris on the Seine. Bilingual guided tours, as well as dinner cruises, are available. Make reservations at 1-800-361-9952 or www.bateau-mouche.com. A cheaper way to enjoy the river, and catch an extraordinary view of the Montreal skyline, is to take one of the water shuttles that ferry passengers between the Old Port and Park des Iles-Ile StHelene or the suburb of Longueuil. There are regular departures all summer from the docks at the Pavilion Jacques Cartier. You can also take a bike along, tour the river's islands on wheels and return to Old Port by the Pont de la Concorde bicycle bridge and the Lachine Canal bike path, for a complete cycling circuit of the riverfront. If you forgot yours, bikes and in-line skates can be rented at several locations in the Old Port area.

The significance of maritime commerce to the St. Lawrence region is apparent when visiting one of the many locks on the river and canals. The St. Lambert Locks, on the St. Lawrence Seaway, are directly across from downtown Montreal on the other side of the Victoria Bridge. Open year-round — when the seaway isn't closed by ice — these locks raise and lower the giant "lakers" that sail between the Great Lakes and the Gulf of St. Lawrence. It's pretty exciting to watch the bridge you just crossed rise into the air to let the ships through. For kids of all ages who like "big machine stuff," this is a real treat.

Before the Lachine Canal was built to bypass them, the Lachine Rapids were one of the biggest obstacles to shipping along the river. For some real — and really wet — thrills, make this the summer you ride the rapids. Les Descentes Sur Le St-Laurent, a private excursion company, provides both rafting and Hydro-Jet boat trips through the foamy Lachine Rapids. Adventure rafting trips take screamers through the highest waves, while family raft trips use the calmer channels. Special Hydro-Jet boat trips are also scheduled to coincide with the fireworks festival, putting you underneath the fireworks on the river, then returning through the rapids — yes, in the dark.

If you prefer to get out on the water, the cruise-excursion line Croisieres AML operates afleetof

Raft trips start from the City of LaSalle, at Pole des Rapides, and take out at Nun's Island, a.k.a. lie

des Soeurs. A shuttle can get you to the LaSalle site from the InfoTouriste Center in downtown Montreal. If you drive to the launch site, you'll be bused back after the boat ride. For more information, rates and directions, visit www.raftingmontreal.com or call 1-800-324-RAFT. For a unique and exotic boating adventure — as a spectator — don't miss the 5th Annual Dragon Board Race Festival, July 22 and 23 at the Olympic Basin on lie Notre-Dame. This year's Festival promises to be spectacular, a multicultural celebration of the West's Millennium with the Chinese Year of the Dragon — a most auspicious union. Dragon Boat Race Festivals are now celebrated all around the world, but they originated in China to commemorate the death by suicide of Qu Yuan. The poet and hero threw himself into the Mi Luo River in 278 B.C. as a protest against an emperor of the Zhou dynasty. His loving supporters went out in boats to search for him, then, failing that, tried to supplicate the evil spirits of the river by beating gongs and drums while dropping dumplings in the water to feed the fish. In the modern version, rival teams of 22 hearty souls paddle like hell along the length of the basin in colorful dragon boats, inspired by the drumbeats of their coxswain. This year in Montreal, over 120 teams from across Canada, the U.S., Europe, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Mainland China are expected to compete. At last year's event, it was great fun to walk through the staging area full of teams preparing for their heats. The corporate and nonprofit teams are clearly there for fun, although friendly rivalries appear to exist among the banks and hotels. Local colleges also field spirited teams. Semi-pro teams, too, make the world Dragon Boat circuit — exceptionally buff and broad-shouldered, they're easy to spot. The reigning world champs were there last year, but considered Montreal just a "fun race" — a tune-up for their title defense in Nottingham later that month. My favorites, though, were the breast-cancer survivors — Canadian women who have traveled to New Zealand and planned last summer to race in Vancouver, Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa. They were, to put it mildly, awesome competitors, full of spirit and heart. The Dragon Boat Festival site has wonderful food booths — mostly Chinese — crafts, folk dancing and music. It's easy to access by the Metro, which I recommend because of limited parking and the confusing route through the river islands. Take the Yellow Line to the Ile-St-Helene station and you're there. The water shuttle from Old Town is another option, and perhaps more thematically appropriate. A terrific Web site, including photos and more details on the teams, can be found at www.aei.ca/-mdbrf/english/base.html, or call 1-514-8667001. Water is the way to go in Montreal in the summer. Just bring your own to drink. ®

really not a lot of money," said Sanders. But for him, it's about principle, and it's about the truth. "They're asking us to do something that's just wrong," he argued. In fact, said Sanders, he's spoken to his lawyer "about the very serious possibility of counter-suing" Corey. Aside from the civil lawsuit in federal court on Elmwood Avenue, Sanders also has a little problem a few blocks away in Vermont District Court. There he's been charged with furnishing alcohol to minors for the "Big Night" party. Originally, he told Seven Days, the state's attorney offered him a deal. If he pled guilty, he would get "diversion" since it was a first offense. After completing a community service sentence, the charge would be wiped from his record. "Basically," Sanders told Seven Days, "I'm being charged because I had an A' on my jersey. No other reason." The "A" distinguished his role on the ice as an assistant captain. "I didn't buy any booze. I didn't supply any booze," he told us. "I went to a party, didn't even drink at the party because I had scuba [diving] the next day, so I couldn't drink. I went to a party and had a good time with my friends and I'm being charged with enabling. What is enabling?'" he asked. "Does an A' mean enabling? That's what we're coming down to," he said. "Trying to figure out how much the A' really means." Team Captain Kevin Karlander recently pled "no contest" to a furnishing charge and got 50 hours of rn community service and a $500 fine. Sanders' diversion deal was on the table, as he noted, prior to LaTulippe's May deposition. "After the deposition," said Sanders, "we put in a notice to the state's attorney to re-look at the case. We want it dropped." So far, Sanders said, he hasn't heard back from the Palace of Justice on Cherry Street. "I hope they do the right thing and see the truth," he said. Stay tuned. Hail Britannia!—The BBC report on Vermont's civil-union law ran last Friday on "Newsnight," the BBC's version of "60 Minutes." Unfortunately, yours truly was left on the cuttingroom floor. Our best line that didn't make it was, "In Vermont the bar of individual freedom was just raised an important notch and not one punch was thrown, not one pub was bombed. All Vermont really did was legalize love." Thought the Brits would snap up the pub-bombing reference. "Newsnight" went for the "state divided" angle and featured Rev. Craig Bensen giving the "walks like a duck" sermon and Republican State Rep Nancy Sheltra promising the extermination of every single immoral legislator in the majority that passed Vermont's landmark civil-rights law. "If a Republican is running for office and will not rescind this vote," threatened Vermont's Queen of Intolerance, "I will find another Republican to represent them. If I

cannot find another Republican, I will take anybody," said the Biblepacking Derby Line divorcee. That's right — "anybody." Very rational, intelligent woman, that Nancy Sheltra. And she's obviously got pretty high standards, don't you think? What the reporter from London didn't know is that, despite her ability to give big bite, Nancy "Gimme" Sheltra's got a very small following. Proudly defending Vermont's moral leadership on the BBC were

argued the case before the Vermont Supreme Court — you know, the court with the Republican chief justice. Both performed admirably. Amazing how a little intelligence stands out in the public debate over civil unions. Shummy spoke about how all the hateful, nasty, uncivil spew he caught from the self-appointed advocates of self-righteous bigotry opened his eyes wide to the inhuman treatment that gay people have long endured in our democratic human society.

The BBC also used sound from local talk radio. Unfortunately, they did not identify "The Mark Johnson Show" on 1390 WKDRAM, and now also on WDEV-AM and FM. The late-morning show is the prime spot on the radio dial where our local batch of meanspirited, conservative malcontents have dominated the airwaves for a decade. They are not happy people. Some clearly need the sort of professional help that no talk-show host could provide. Day after day, the same queue of bitter bigots line up to vent their self-righteous moral superiority. Unfortunately, the host usually lets them run the program. Anything they say, no matter how smarmy, disingenuous or outrageous, gets a polite "thank you" from the host.

On the BBC, we recognized the bitter whine of one of our "favorites," — none other than the Winooski trash-mouth herself, remember our outing of Mrs. Smallminded a couple months back. It silenced her sharp tongue for a couple weeks. Joyce has made thousands of appearances on WKDR over the past decade as "Sylvia from Winooski." For "Sylvia," anyone to the left of Nancy Sheltra is a commie, flagburning, fag-loving, pot-smoking, atheistic, anti-American piece of garbage. Very pleasant woman.

A FEET DON'T FAIL Never mind a baker's dozen; it's A a "dirty" one when it comes from New Orleans. What's more, there's only seven (and sometimes eight) players in this band, but that's enough to bring a 1920s-by-way-of-bebop jazz into the new millennium. The Dirty Dozen Brass Band has been turning the rollicking N'Awlins genre on edge since 1977, and they're not about to stop now. They are stopping, though, for a one-nighter at Higher Ground this Thursday.

DIRTY DOZEN] BRASS BAND

FROM ON-LINE TO ON-STAGE It's a busy night in downtown Burlington for singer-songwriter Kate Barclay this Wednesday: Her first gig is at Red Square, at the debut of the Folk Insurrection, and later at an MP3.com showcase concert at Club Metronome. Folk Insurrection, regular readers may recall, is the brainchild of Josh Magis, who's planning an acoustic night every second Wednesday at the Square. Former From Good Homes guy Patrick Fitzsimmons shares the bill at this early show. Then Barclay, a reigning diva on MP3.com, joins the Summer 2000 tour of the popular music Web site, along with Emily Richardson, The Clear and Johnny Society (see review below). The 50-city tour features national touring acts with one or two local ones, and at the end somebody's gonna win a recording contract. This may be a virtual breakthrough: Bands popular on the Internet getting the real thing. Of course, our Kate has been actual all along. Check it out.

STAY-AT-HOME BOY Wondering why the big hiphop show scheduled for last Monday at Higher Ground was cancelled? Chalk it up to "transportation problems." Meaning, explains HG's Alex Crothers, the deejay Madd Skills "partied a little too hard for his birthday" down in Washington, D.C., and missed his northbound train the next morning! Because he's an important co-bill — with The High & Mighty, Smut Peddlers and Copywrite — on the Eastern Conference/Rawkus Records package tour, Crothers decided to cancel the whole deal rather than get less of it. So far, a makeup date has not been secured, but fans should cross their fingers that it's well before Madd's next all-nighter.

RELATIVELY QUIET, PLEASE! Lots of things have changed at City Hall in two decades — including the budget at Burlington City Arts. But one constant has been the summer concert series at Battery Park, launched in 1980. But don't expect fireworks and loud hoo-ha for the 20th anniversary — you can take this five-concert series lying down... on the lawn, that is. This year BCA is giving us an unplugged version of alt-rockers Zola Turn (this

people and send them forth as whole people, get them involved in the community, [help them] use their minds, be creative." She also envisions 242 being used by more kids and in more ways, such as writing workshops, poetry slams and gallery exhibits, along with the music the space already presents. "If you're good'at something, come on down and teach it; if you want to get paid, come down and help me write the grant," she pleads to the grown-ups. "I want more people to see the space being utilized well, as a positive place to go."

nEws Thursday) and Chin Ho! (August 3), as well as acoustic singer-songwriters Gregory Douglass (July 20) — who wasn't even born when the series started — and Patrick Fitzsimmons (July 27), and Irish laddies The Highland Weavers (August 10). Another thing that hasn't changed: The sun still sets behind the stage. DO GOOD DEPT. The more observant of you may have noticed an unusual number of benefits for 242 Main over the past year. So the place must be pretty flush, huh? Not. Burlington's only teen center is seriously underfunded — this while the city's parents and other elders complain about kids who drink, take drugs, hang out in front of the mall and frighten shoppers, graffiti the town or otherwise turn into sullen miscreants. But enough of the soapbox; let me tell you the purpose of this Thursday's benefit at Club Metronome. Thanks in large part to the vision and dedication of AmeriCorps Vista worker and 242 board member Michelle Fleming, the kids who frequent 242 are about to see expanded options at their Mem O d d venue. Fleming is designing a program that would basically facilitate ideas the kids themselves come up with, e.g., creating a 'zine. She calls it the Holistic Prevention Program. It's "an effort to move kids away from drugs and alcohol into something that inspires them — art, poetry, yoga classes, photography, whatever," Fleming says. "I'll be soliciting a lot of volunteers and doing grant-writing. We want to inspire young

Rage Against Age is bursting with the very latest medical information for both men & women on how you can look and feel 20 years younger. Enhance your mind and memory, erase the lines of time, strengthen your immune system, and restore the power and energy of your youth. Consider it a survival manual, bringing about biochemical surgery of your body and mind through diet, lifestyle changes, exercise, vitamin/mineral supplements, and hormone replacement therapy. You are as young as your faith, as old as your doubt, as young as your self-confidence, as as old as your fear. Let co-authors Dr. Charles Anderson and Mr. Frank Covino change your life and allow you to be the master of your destiny, making it possible — even as the years pass — to grow young in bodies that are strong, healthy and vigorous.

"Garden Kiss," by Jean Carlson Masseau B Y M A R C AWODEY

n his 30-year journey as a photographer, Burlington newcomer Arthur Hynes has been primarily interested in people and their environment. More than 50 of his dynamic works are currently exhibited at the Firehouse Center for the Visual Arts, but in fact the Queen City is blessed with more than one substantial photography show this month. A group exhibit, entitled "Multiple Exposures: Experimental and Traditional Photobased Works," is at the Flynndog Gallery in the South End. The eight photographers — Nina Parris, Linda Bryan, Jean Carlson Masseau, Jeff Clarke, Sally McCay, Fred Stetson, Matthew Thorsen and P. R-Smith — present collage works, transfers and conventional images that deal with the abstract and the specific. Together, the two shows offer an engaging portrait of what contemporary Vermont photographers are focusing on. While most of Hynes' works are concerned with individuals or small groups of people, they are not specifically portraits, but topographical maps of places that have no names. Hynes has included nine untitled triptychs from 1980-81, in which three views of middle-aged persons are framed together. The viewer does not know the identity of these people, but sees their unique features from three angles, which reference both mug shots and Baroque portraiture. But Hynes' works are not merely documentary. In addition to his interest in people, he pays much attention to color and composition. "Couple in Blue and Red" seems more about the colors, in fact, than the couple — husband in blue windbreaker and wife in a red coat standing in a railroad yard, both dwarfed by freight cars. Various shades of red and blue echo throughout the composition. "Man in Green Coat" follows this formula, but with an added emphasis on the visual rhythm of the piece — again, as important an element as the figures. At the FlynnDog, Burlington photographer Nina Parris also demonstrates a fascination with rhythm and color with formalist, untitled C-prints

of mechanical details from annual motorcycle conventions in Elloree, South Carolina. Parris captures gleaming gas tanks and twisted chrome with the precision of Gray's Anatomy. In two of these photos, a Harley-Davidson engine reflects and distorts a broad range of purely abstract hues. Black-and-white silver prints by artist/musician P. R-Smith are also elegantly composed, but more concerned with the passage of light and shadow than reflections and texture. Two diptychs of the bright interior courtyard of a stable in Spain are organized into receding passages of shadow and light, framed by the architecture and shaded details of a far-away afternoon. Seven Days photographer Matthew Thorsen presents a series of self-portraits in the exhibit, including several photo-collages that adhere one smaller photo onto the top of another. The smaller shots appear to enlarge the subject at his shoulders, distorting both himself and the surrounding background. In another work Thorsen has distorted his face by manipulating the emulsion of the piece. The effect is a slightly fluid image akin to the paintings of Francis Bacon. Linda Bryan's Polaroid transfers also manipulate image by technical means. Her works are printed on paper and have the character of washed-out lithography. The images of statues and decaying automobiles work with just a few pale colors, as in "Winters Casualty I and II." These are separate images of a rusted Jeep fading under gathering snow, its presence seemingly as tenuous as the limited hues of this unusual technique. "Perhaps to a Dream" has more intense colors, possibly because the image of a statue's face is aXerox transfer rather than Polaroid transfer. Photography does not mirror the realism of the world so much as it reflects each photographers aesthetic and conceptual concerns. While this can be said of all the arts, photography is a mechanical process devoted to the accurate translation of exterior purviews. This makes the artist s eye and hand even more crucial than the medium itself— artistic vision, more than mechanical skill, determines the success of each photograph. ®

W h i c h , by the way, wouldn't be bad advice for the population at large. Bruce Willis stars in the latest from director Jon (Phenomenon, Three Ninjas, While You Were Sleeping) Turteltaub. T h e actor plays a Type-A jerk of an image consultant, a super-successful, totally self-absorbed and insensitive almost-40-year-old who's all work and no play. O n the eve of his birthday, he discovers an uninvited guest in his multi-million-dollar bachelor pad — a chubby-faced lad who turns out to be — are you sitting down? — the eight-year-old version of himself.

sheer power of personality. T h e script gives neither performer much of interest to do, and the final third — when the two go into aw-shucks overdrive and say things like "holy smokes!" over and over again — borders on the embarrassing. If you find yourself forced for some reason to attend this film, your best bet is to stay for the first third and then flee under cover of darkness. T h e only semi-funny stuff comes early on, while Willis' character is at the height of his smug obnoxiousness. T h e finer he becomes as a person, the duller the picture. Lacking the magic of similarly themed movies such as Big, Disney's The Kid is all pixie dust and no point. D o we really need Jon Turteltaub to tell us it's important to be true to ourselves and follow our dreams? Like, his boyhood dream was to grow up and make corny, derivative motion pictures? Who's this guy trying to kid? ®

rine parts to go to the official national manchild and star of Hook, Jack, Toys, Mrs. Doubtfire, Father's Day, Patch Adams and Bicentennial Man. Other than that, the film's virtually surprise-free. Clearly conceived as an exercise in New Age Capra, the picture slogs its way down a predictable path with Willis' hard-ass workaholic gradually getting in touch with his inner dweeb, re-experiencing pivotal childhood events, realizing the error of his ways and, like a post-modern Scrooge, coming out the other side a new and improved h u m a n being. W h o , luckily, socked away a ton of money when he was mean, leaving him free to be a freewheeling life of the party after the epiphany. Spencer Breslin, who plays little-boy Bruce, is cute in a doughy, marble-mouthed way. If he shaved his head, he'd make a hell of a Mini-Me for Curly of the Three Stooges. Willis delivers what little punch the movie has through

Carpool presents their i-^? Connection

BROKEN THERMOSTAT CAN LOWER GAS MILEAGE Dear Tom and Ray: I have a 1991 Toyota Corolla wagon with about 69,000 miles. I have had all the major scheduled maintenance done by my Toyota dealer and have had the oil changed every 3,000 miles. Until last fall, it would get 28-30 miles per gallon, mostly in city driving. Then the mileage dropped to the low 20s before the onset of cold weather, when it dropped even lower. I recently had a tuneup done by my trustworthy mechanic, but that has not improved the mileage. Could this engine simply be nearing the end of its usefiil life? — Alan RAY: I doubt it's nearing the end of its useful life, Alan. 69,000 miles is considered middle age for this particular Toyota engine. It's much more likely that all you need is a new thermostat. T O M : After a while — say, 69,000 miles or so — it's not

uncommon for the thermostat to break in the open position. That means the coolant is always circulating through the radiator and cooling the engine. RAY: But the engine S H O U L D N ' T be cooled all the time. An engine that's always running too cool will run less efficiently, pollute more and — get this, Alan — get lousy gas mileage. T O M : If the temperature inside the cylinders is too cold, two things happen. First, the computer thinks the engine is still warming up, so it keeps sending in more gas. Plus, some of the vaporized gasoline that the fuel injectors send in will condense on the cold cylinder walls. And that fuel doesn't get burned — or at least doesn't get burned completely. That's why your mileage stinks. RAY: So have your trustworthy mechanic slap a thermostat in this baby, and I bet it'll run like a frightened sardine. Whatever that is. Good luck, Alan

Against the rules...?! If you're talking about the union rules, they clearly state that dairy personnel can be called to work overtime...

Whoa...calm down, sir. I wasn't talking

I was referring to the rules that state: "He who owns the negatives to photographs of his married boss in a bordello pretty much determines his own weekly work schedule'.'

I can only bow before your superior bastardry. Have a pleasant, relaxing weekend.

about those rules.

13-20

ology

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): How's your intuition been working lately, Aries? Has it been nudging you to put in more nesting time? If so, pat yourself on the butt and treat yourself to a gourmet home meal. You're already in tune with the astrological forces and don't need my advice. If, on the other hand, you've been ignoring the calls to cultivate more domestic bliss, I'm afraid your intuition needs a wake-up call. So spank yourself, then stare at your navel until you conjure up visions of what home accessories to buy, what housemate to be extra-sweet to, and what obstacles are inhibiting your passion to create a bubblier home.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-May 20): Just this once, you've got cosmic clearance to load up on junk food, leave a beer can in the wilderness, watch stupid T V game shows and be a lazy slob. The curious fact is that for the next 10 days or so, absolute purity and a fanatical commitment to being right can actually lead you astray. So please, Taurus, for the sake of your sweetest dreams, be a little naughty and neglectful. In order for you to start figuring out what the hell you're in the process of becoming, you've got to make damn sure you know all about what you're not.

GEMINI

(May 21-June 20): You won't believe where I am right now. As I compose your horoscope, I'm sitting on a bed in a Milwaukee hotel room with singers Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera on either side of me. To be candid, it's almost uncontrollably exhilarating to be surrounded by so much wild young female power. It also helps me to channel the oracle that the divine forces have asked me to convey. Amazingly enough, Gemini, your assignment this week is to imagine how you would live your life differently if you were a beautiful, robust and talented 20-year-old woman with the world at your feet. Forget your inner child for now. Rouse up and

tune in to your inner Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera. (P.S. In the interest of full disclosure, I should note that my companions are actually 12-inch-tall action-figure versions of the two divas.)

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): As I meditated on your horoscope, I sped down Highway 94 between two Michigan cities, Paw Paw and Climax. O n the radio, the N P R storyteller rhapsodized about the smells of blueberries, candle wax and buttered popcorn. I spied a truck with mudflaps imprinted with the words "Treasure Your Longing." In the distance I spied a green flood of waisthigh cornstalks, and in the back of my mind I replayed the previous night's dream, when I clambered up a smooth-barked tree barefoot to pluck the ripe blue fruit at the top. In the wake of these omens, my fellow Crabs, what else could I possibly conclude about your future? The coming week is bound to be vivid, elemental, sensual, spontaneous, playful and deeply satisfying to your instinctual

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It's the first annual Build Up Your Confidence by Any Means Possible Week. In the next seven days you have astrological permission to go after the easy victories. Feel free to pick fights with 90-pound (or 90-IQ) weaklings. Hang around people who think you're the next best thing to God, and give signs to secret admirers that it's O K to become less secretive. Polish up your trophies, wear all your medals and give dramatic readings of your best letters of recommendation. If anyone's offended, tell 'em you're acting on orders from your soul doctor.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "There are people who so arrange their lives," said Spanish philosopher Jose Ortega y Gasset, "that they feed themselves only on side dishes." I'm sorry to say that more Virgosfitthis description than any other sign. That's the bad news. The good news is that a large minority of your tribe is now poised to slip away from its fixation with the nibbling metaphor. Will you be one? Are you ready to begin giving yourself regular permission to guiltlessly gorge on main courses? To expedite the liberation of your divine hunger, I suggest you stage a ritual feast.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The Jeep Cherokee commercial trumpets the SUV's ability to go off-road and triumph over every terrain. No obstacle can stop it! It is your indomitable ally, giving you access to the ends of the Earth! "Kind of evens out the whole man-versus-nature thing," the vehicle's spokesman brags as the ad climaxes. I bring this up, Libra, because I believe you will have Jeep Cherokee-like powers this week even if you don't own one. Your raw vigor will inspire you to launch natureconquering adventures! You'll be delightfully shocked by your capacity for paradigm-busting pleasures! Your imagination will run wild and free, pushing you beyond the limits imposed in the past by timidity and the love of comfort.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The Internet Trash News (www.nettoilet.com/news/) recently reported on a new malady: jet lag caused by astral projection. Perhaps the most famous victim is Russian supermodel Irina Pantaeva, who sometimes wakes up in her New York digs exhausted from night-long outof-body jaunts to her native Siberia.

I'm concerned, Scorpio, that you may soon suffer from this condition. According to my astrological analysis, you should currently be flying all over creation in actual waking life; and if for some reason you're not, you'll no doubt have to overcompensate in your dreams. The antidote, then, to Pantaeva's Syndrome, is to get your physical butt, not just your astral ass, out of town.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): A sage once said that you can never step in the same river twice. The spot where you dunk your foot today may look like the place you dipped in yesterday, but the water coursing past you now has never been there before and will never be there again. By the same logic, you can never make love with the same person twice. The unfathomable changes that have unfolded in your old familiar partner since your last encounter ensure that he or she is always a fresh mystery. Let this truth inflame you as you explore the erotic frontiers in the coming weeks.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): I know ambitious movers and shakers who studiously avoid cultivating sensitivity and compassion. To become more caring, they fear, would sap their drive to get ahead — possibly even lower their intelligence. In their view, heartful vulnerability tends to erode the tough-mindedness that's crucial for savvy success. I pray that you're not one of these deluded folks, Capricorn. The weeks ahead will present rich opportunities for you to get smarter by learning how to love with more emotional intensity than you've ever called on before.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Not to be melodramatic, but the last shall soon be first, the top shall

s be bottom, and the lost shall be found. And vice versa. Always . vice versa. You will consistently make the right moves if you assume that many tables will be turned, that just about every flip will be flopped. Now take this pop quiz. 1) Would you consider giving up a privilege that's of marginal value and stirs up resentment in people you like? 2) Are you willing to listen to sources you've been closed to before? 3) Will you heed my plea to atone for your sins and correct your mistakes before you're forced to?

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): I'm typing this horoscope on my laptop as I drive a rented car through Michigan. Every few miles I see "Adopt-a-Highway" signs. The Kiwanas Club, Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity and Outback Steakhouse are just a few groups that have laid a claim. I can't help but think this would be an excellent idea for you to pursue, Pisces. W h y don't you make your own personalized sign and plant it by the side of a road you like? The cosmic omens say it'll be a good week for you to express sublimated versions of your maternal or paternal urges. The coming days will also be prime time, by the way, to send a message to your descendants or create a masterpiece that lasts for a thousand years. Pregnancy is your ruling metaphor — and I do mean metaphor.®

Dear Lcla, My girlfriend has just gotten into flavored lip gloss in a big way, and I can't stand the way it tastes when I kiss her. I've tried buying her flavors I prefer, but when she wears them, the effect is basically the same. Cvery time we get romantic, I feel like I'm licking a lollipop. That may be a turn-on for some kids, but not for this grown-up guy. How can I get her cut of the candy shop and into more grown-up cosmetics? Bothered Dear
