ODD, STRANGE, CURIOUS AND WEIRD BUT TRUE NEWS ITEMS FROM EVERY CORNER OF THE GLOBE A Philadelphia charity that gave away 42,000 pounds of sweet potatoes Ia$t year arranged to have 44,000 more yams delivered this June for another giveaway. Trucks from North Carolina dumped the sweet potatoes in the parking lot of the Community Associates of Strawberry Mansion, Director Liz Bacone said she expected a large turnout, but only 500 people signed up to take some yams home. After six days, neighbors began complaining about the smell. City-dispatched trash trucks took a whole day to haul away the rotting 40-ton pile. MARK JOUR CALENDARS The Andrology institute, a private reproductive firm in Lexington, Kentucky, reported that its survey determined the time when most people are likely to be having sex is 10:34 p.m. Glamour magazine announced the best month to have sex is October, explaining, its "the annual peak of testosterone in men." GOTTA LEGISLATE California Senate Majority Leader Henry Mello proposed a bill that would appropriate $132,000 a year for removing tattoos from young people. An aide explained the bill was aimed especially at youths released from the California

Youth Authority who emerge with tattoos in visible places — hands, face and neck — that make finding jobs difficult. The conservative newsletter, Inside California.., objected to the legislation, declaring, "Tattoos help identify criminal suspects." iililpitss^^ • Belgian agricultural minister Karel Pinxten proposed banning

When Shen refused to let go of a tag giving her priority over Fu, he bit her on the hand and kneed her in the thigh. After order was restored, the New Party said it would replace Fu as whip.

IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT Jose Pinto, who is 95 percent blind, drove himself to work for three years until Madrid police arrested him this spring after receiving a tip-off from his employer, Spains National Organization of the Blind, Records showed police stopped him the year before for not having a license, but they never noticed his poor eyesight. Pinto explained he found his way through seven miles of city streets each day by avoiding shapes and shadows. ting officers reported his car had no ^ dents or scratches. • Wendy Maines was driving through Versailles, New York, in January when she saw five dogs attacking a cat. She stopped to rescue the cat, scaring off the dogs by honking her horn and slamming the dooi. Figuring the cat had run into the woods, she started to drive off but felt a bump. It was the cat, now flat. "Maybe it was just Mother Nature's way of telling me to mind my own business," Maines said,

IT HAD TO BE EWE Police in Palmerston North, New Zealand, arrested Shane Patrick Neho, 17, and a younger accomplice for breaking into Barbarellas sex shop. The suspects fled with a blowup woman, a female mannequin dressed in rubber underwear, a large drinking mug shaped like a vagina, ai and an inflatable sheep. "We have not yet ascertained why a sex shop should be stocking blowup sheep," Sgt. Ollie Outrim told the New Zealand Herald, "especially as Palmerston North has a large sheep population."

"It was biodegradable," said Rick Muller of race organizer the Hash House Harriers club. "We thought the reaction was very amusing."

SOUR D O U G H I feel the need to comment on a misconception widely held by many Vermonters. It was directly represented in a letter to the editor in last week's edition of Seven Days, entitled, "Bread Boxing." As the owner of the new Breadsmith bakery referred to in the article, I was surprised not only by the attitude of the author, but most of all by the misconstrued facts. Do most people think a franchised business gets money from the franchisor? Ben and Jerry's, Bruegger's and Breadsmith do not pay their owners one cent. Local advertising must come out of a store's individual pocket. This is especially the case for new franchises such as Breadsmith. You can be sure every ad you have seen is funded by us (I only wish the franchise would pay for any of it.)

liillljl

As for the state-of-the-art equipment, we believe that the best ovens bake the best bread, but you will never find equipment taking the place of what our team does by hand in the

wee hours of the morning. Do I jMgaaA even need to mention that the owners fund the equipment costs, not the freanchise company? You see, owning a franchise is very similar to owning any other business. You may get more support (non-financial), a logo and great recipes, but we are Vermonters. We employ local people, pay local taxes, buy local products whenever possible, and yes, our local landlord was the one who rebuilt the "prefabricated, generic" facade for all the businesses in the shopping center. We think it looks wonderful. — Cheryl Aley South Burlington

DEFENDING PRINCIPLE Personally, I've always felt that anybody who would inconvenience himself on behalf of some arbitrary social, political or religious belief was a bit of a nut case. Consequently, the six anti-capital-punishment protesters that Peter Freyne defends in your August 7 issue are, in my opinion, simply victims of people brighter than they who have been able to gull them with a variety of pretentious nonsense.

My attitude aside, I believe Freyne demonstrates a rather prevalent journalistic bias. He apparently thinks that people who protest capital punishment are motivated by principle. Whereas people who oppose, say, abortion are knee-jerk extremists. I suppose that what I am getting at is that Freyne should explain for non-journalists how he determines when a particular protest is a matter of principle and when it is an example of extremism. — Raymond E. Leary Shelburne VOTE FOR CHOICE Now that the Republicans have given up on modifying their platform to include pro-choice opinions, it is clear that the only choice for president is Bill Clinton. Women and men alike must choose the candidate that will in turn respect their personal choices. President Clinton believes that abortions should be safe, legal, rare and up to the woman involved. Bob Dole wants to overturn Roe v. Wade, thus returning our country to a time when thousands of women died annually from back-alley abortions. In November, choose the candidate for choice: "Re-elect President Clinton. — Kristie Duvall Burlington DOLE'S "TOLERANCE" Although both Republicans and Democrats will play the political game this election season, it is the Republican Party that is using the rights of women as one of the pawns in this game. Dole's voting record in the Senate reveals that he has never been "tolerant" of a woman's right to choose. It is highly unlikely that after over two decades in the Senate, he has changed his position. There are two possible conclusions that can be drawn from Dole's feeble attempt to add the "plank of tolerance." Dole may have become enlightened on the idea of a woman's right to choose. In this case, he ultimately caved in to the conservative ideology of the religious right. Another possibility is that Dole was just trying to appear open-minded on the subject — never with the intention to change his stance. It's unfortunate that Dole holds the rights of Americans in such low regard. — Emma K. Hurley Burlington Letters Policy: SEVEN DAYS wants your rants and raves, in 250 words or less.

ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL No, you weren't hearing things. That was „ the name of Bernie Sanders reverberating over 8 the loudspeakers at the Republican National 1 Convention in San Diego Monday. Quite the | honor, eh? Thank you, Susan Sweetser. I "This will be an historic election. Why?" ™ j asked Susie Creamcheese from the podium, i "Because we have the opportunity to replace | the most liberal, most out-of-touch member of | Congress, Bernie Sanders!" Sweetser went on to declare, "I'm a second® generation American. I'm a mom of two daughI ters. I'm also a teacher and I'm a victim of a | brutal crime. But I fought back! In 1990 I | founded Survivors of Crime, and in the past ^ year after a battle that lasted over a decade, I ^ passed Vermont's historic Crime Victims Bill of Rights." Sounds pretty good, huh? Susie Creamcheese's 90 seconds on the San Diego stage betrayed none of the difficulties her campaign is facing back in Vermont. A look at the Vermont side of things reveals signs of trouble in Sweetserville. First of all, Sweetser's campaign finance director, Jill McDermott, has quit the campaign in a huff. McDermott, formerly the campaign manager and assistant to Burlington Republican mayor Peter Brownell, tells Inside Track she "wasn't happy" working at Sweetser's campaign headquarters in Montpelier. Our sources indicate there was a major rift between McDermott and Sweetser's campaign manager, Darcie Johnston. "We were sorry to see Jill go, but those things happen," said Sweetser in an interview at the Burlington Airport Saturday as 1 she was departing for the West | Coast. "We will have her | replaced imminently." Asked about complaints of Johnston's I management style, Sweetser i replied, "Like any campaign, | we're going to have our ups and | we're going to have our downs. « It's going to take some time for ^ everyone to adjust to one 1 another and to work together, I but I'm very pleased with my I campaign and I'm very pleased ® with the team I've put togeth& er." As for the persistent rumors | of money troubles, Johnston I told Inside Track this week that ® the campaign has almost $40,000 in the bank. 1 "We will easily make our payroll throughout | the campaign," Sweetser insisted. On another front, Sweetser is the subject of persistent rumors sparked by her appearance on Vermont Public Radio's "Switchboard" proSi gram on July 18. The caller was introduced by | the host, Bob Kinzel, as "Thomas of South | Burlington." "The President has been attacked by the 8 Republican Party for his, quote unquote, char| acter," said the caller in a tense, emotional I voice. "I think what goes around comes around, ^ and I could not consider someone who, while ^ professing to care about victims, victimized a 8 family in Burlington, created havoc for the wife | and kids. I'm referring to a relationship 18 to 24 months ago. I think you know what I'm about. _talking n L _ And a j ithat's> why i rI won't>.ibe able li to vote for you even though I'm a Republican I business owner. Okay?" | "Well, thank you very much," answered | Sweetser as Kinzel went on to the next caller. The incident quickly became the behind8 the-scenes buzz, and not just in political circles. Asked about the matter Saturday, Sweetser | said she had "no comment," adding, "That's I not a fair question." Yours truly respectfully disagrees. One

would have expected an angry denial or rebuttal 1 instead of a "no comment." Asking about " charges related to character made on a statewide g public radio broadcast is a fair question for a g candidate for Congress or even President. After * all, the answer is entirely up to the candidate. I PS. Two years ago it was "Bye-Bye Bernie." | Wishful thinking. This week a new bumper j sticker appeared at Sweetser campaign headquarters. It reads: "Get B.S. out of D.C." Johnston said she didn't know who produced 1 them. Bernie haters will love 'em. Debtors Slug It Out — Yes, that was i Republican John Carroll on television*the other t. day responding to Democrat Doug Racine's call 1 for campaign spending limits by stating, "If how you run a campaign is a predictor of fiscal | responsibility, I think Doug Racine flunks. In p his last campaign he spent well over $100,000 and wound up with a $22,000 debt." •I Stunning to hear the word "debt" pass through the lips of John Carroll, the most | famous debtor in Election '96. Racine's "debt" % is personal money he put into his campaign. I Carroll's debt — 10 times greater — was money he owed to the Ohio mortgage company | that had to take J.C. to court to collect. Of g course, in Carroll's case it should be noted the _ candidate considered his debt a "badge of honor." What's sauce for the goose is sauce for jjf the gander. | Time to Apologize? — In an g August 6 letter, the lawyers who represented the Free Mumia 1 demonstrators say Gov Howard § Dean owes an apology for com- g ments made two weeks ago in ^ which he called the six protest- f ers "hoods," blamed them for 1 vandalism they were never even j charged with committing, and | blasted Judge Dean Pineles for permitting use of the necessity defense. Michael Cassidy and Stacey Joroff called Ho-Ho's remarks "childish" and "slanderous." Yeah, so what? Ho-Ho's the big cheese and he'll say ^ ^ whatever he wants, facts be damned. Don't expect an apolo- g | mm gy, folks. i Media Notes — Last week's J ^ L three-day Montpelier hearing W W on a worker's comp claim If brought by the widow of a for• mer Burlington Free Press territo I m rial sales manager drew the attention of two local TV stations. Peter Fatovich jumped i into the Huntington Gorge in June 1994 after working for the local Gannett paper for three months after he had departed WPTZ-TV. Free § Press managers have stated under oath in depo- ff sitions that the advertising department had a 75 | percent turnover rate that year. Fatovich's wife, g Jenny Grosvenor, contends his depression was aggravated by on-the-job stress, thus causing his 1 suicide. The hearings will continue in November. No matter what the outcome, expect the losing party to appeal to Superior Court. If the Freeps loses, the price tag will make Paul Teetor's recent settlement look like I pocket change. Our local TV titans are extending the bat- i tlefield to the early morning hours. Over at WCAX, Sera Congi kicked off Monday morn- ® ing with an interview with Bernie Sanders. Sera 1 gets to work at 4:30 a.m. Ouch! Molly Falconer, our favorite Harvard alumnus, will | replace Congi on the anchor desk for the Saturday late news. 1 Reporter Carolyn Roy — a hometown girl | who graduated from Champlain College — departed her part-time gig at WCAX last week • and became producer of the morning program * at WVNY-TV this week.

"What kind of small market spawns a five-way rock war and a two-way modern battle?" One with rival radio stations in "one of the most competitive rock arenas in the country." Rock Airplay Monitor gets right to the point in its current issue, with a lengthy article about the broadcast battle brewing in Burlington — more specifically, the conflict between dueling classic rock stations, WIZN and Champ, and their ern rock footsoldiers, the Buzz arid the Pulse. The story < up the volume on WIZN Programming Din and mixes in quotes from competitors Glen he 2 Haskell and Chris Fleming. Only Stephanie Hindley word in in about year-old boss at the Buzz — manages to get a. word music. "Champ constantly attacks us/' Cormier says, returning fire with a few bad-mouth barbs of his own. Meanwhile Pulse P.O. Chris Fleming totally disses the Point. "WNCS is not competition," he says. "I don't even count them." The Buzz and the Pulse are definitely going head to head, and no one, not even Cormier, expects both to survive. Right now only the most attentive listener can tell the difference between the two modern rock formats — and the computerized robb-deefay who handles the station identification. "I sense a litde bit more edge with the Buzz," says WRUV deejay Kevin Hosldns, whose biggest complaint about the new stations is the similar slogans: The Pulse is "Burlington's rock alternative." The Buzz is "The Real Alternative." But WRUV has been "The Better Alternative" for over 10 years. May still be. The college station will probably change its tag line, and tweak its programming, just to differentiate itself from the new comg p a W H S 9 flV6"W8y petition. "If you can hear it on the other stations," Hoskins promises, "you are not going to hear it on POCK W 8 P d M 8 RUV." Show tunes, anyone?

ot to cite "Seinfeld," but let us consider the show's season finale, in which George's fiancee, Susan, drops dead, poisoned by the adhesive strip on the envelopes for her wedding invitations. As his fiancee is buried, George breathes a long, shuddering sigh of relief: He realizes, as we all do, that she was the serpent in the garden. There was nothing identifiably wrong with Susan, but she always had a vaguely threatening presence. The marriage, had it taken place, would have sent the show reeling — right out of prime time. In life, as on television, marriage just doesn't get the ratings. Although we are still marrying — 91 percent of Americans do it before they die — we are tying the knot later than ever. The median age at first marriage for women is 24.5 and for men 26.7 — the highest figures since the census started taking marriage statistics. In 1960, only 11 percent of women emerged from their 20s single. By 1993, that number had risen to 33 percent. An expected period of protracted singleness is reflected in our spending, our pop culture, our career choices. We are a generation of confirmed bachelors and bachelorettes. "Just being friends does simplify life," muses the narrator of Douglas Coupland's Generation X. It simplifies life until you want to get married. Then things get complicated. There was a time when it was normal to get married. In 1960, the median age for women at first marriage was 20.3; for men, 22.8. John Updike's 1960s suburbia was populated by couples who married thoughtlessly, breathlessly, in their early 20s, tumbling out of graduation gowns and into mortgage agreements. "Ken appeared, was taller than she, wanted her, was acceptable and was accepted on all sides," Updike writes in Couples, his classic chronicle of young marriedness. "She was graduated and married in June of 1956."

"Their courtship passed as something instantly forgotten, like an enchantment, or a mistake," he writes of another pair. "Her father, a wise-smiling man in a tailored gray suit, failed to disapprove... The first child, a daughter, was born nine months after the wedding night." Thus, in two sentences, it was done. Angst didn't really enter into it in those days. We were driven by society toward the institution that is its fundamental unit. It was a time of unambiguous prosperity: There were jobs, and young Americans were chafing at the bit to begin their real lives. In those days, people expected to marry before they finished growing up; marriage, it seemed, would help them do it. Children came early, and Updike's couples — the prosperous ones — emerged into the public world of poker clubs, dinner dances, touch football, beach volleyball, Greek-dancing parties and halfillicit infidelity. The decisive dramas of their lives took place when they were coupled. "What was the hurry?" wonders Ben Bradlee in his 1995 memoir, A Good Life, of his marriage at 20 during World War II. "What convinced either one of us that marriage would resolve any of the uncertainties we dared not admit to, much less face? Was there some vaguely glamorous, vaguely patriotic sense that marriage would make each life more meaningful? Who knows?"

alf a century later, we have left the age of Couples and entered the age of "Friends." We don't marry, we date. We date to the point of collapse, through relationships

that come with all the perquisites of marriage and receive the scrutiny of marriage end in breakups that amount to mini-divorces. Only a third of Americans in their 20s marry before living with their partner, according to the 1994 survey, Sex in America. We hold, as cultural critic David Lipsky puts it, "a wide casting call and an extensive audition period." As a result, the step into legal union sometimes comes off as downright exotic. At 24, Jeannie Sclafani Rhee is keenly aware that she is a statistical anomaly. She was married — to her own astonishment — to her college boyfriend at 23, and noticed almost immediately that her peers started treating her differently. "They think I'm an oddity, as if marriage is something for old people and their mothers and fathers," she says. Everyone assumed I wouldn't want

ceremony. The wedding — with its giving-away-the-bride symbolism — was the subject of more than a little close analysis. "People really did not take it well, the whole wedding bit. Someone really did confront me with that," she says. "Our marriage was a horrifically personal and political affair. We even had two male flower children because we didn't want to buy into this heterosexist tradition. Of course," she adds, "we ended up alienating

isn't shell-shocked." Renee Frengut, a generational analyst with Market Insights, Inc. in Boston, says children of divorce tend to approach marriage with cool skepticism. "You're the first generation to start out with a big question mark: Will it last?" says Frengut. "It's as if you're going into a rite of passage with the hope of not becoming a statistic." But the issues go beyond • divorce. Two-career households are less a bold choice now than a simple fact of life, and interfaith ^ marriages are much more common than ^ in the past.

"Our generation got really screwed. We cant have random sex, we cant do drugs, we cant do anything fun.99 work. After a while, I confronted them and said, 'I am not a space alien.'" "We had a lot of explaining to do," agrees her husband, Chris Sclafani Rhee, also 24. "My parents — I don't think they disapproved, but they were concerned, which is ironic, because they got married at exactly the same age." Throughout the process, both Jeannie and Chris sustained a deep ambivalence, not about each other but about the

everyone. We are, as a group, overwhelmingly gun-shy about relationships. One explanation seems relatively simple: Today's twentysomethings grew up during a period of unprecedented domestic entropy. The U.S. divorce rate, which had been steady at about 4 percent for decades, doubled between 1965 and 1975. Divorce is so much a part of our vocabulary, notes 28-year-old writer Nathaniel Wice, "there isn't one of us who

absence of useful precedents — they are. When Robert Watts Thornburg, the dean of Morse Chapel at Boston University, asks engaged couples whether their parents had a good marriage, about a third say yes. When he asks them if they want a similar marriage, only one in 10 agree. Indeed, couples getting married have a lot of inventing ahead of them. With their egalitarian ideas, young people Continued

An event to set you straight on inline skates By P a m e l a

Polston

f your trade name falls into

use as a common noun, like Kleenex, you should count yourself lucky, right? Or if it actually becomes a verb: "I Xeroxed my term paper yesterday before turning it in." Not so, according to makers of Americas most well-known inline skate — Rollerblade. Virtually everyone who's heard of the popular recreational activity on wheels calls it Rollerblading, and the skates Rollerblades — though they might be made by K2, Oxygen, Technica or any number of other companies now competing for the feet of skating enthusiasts old and new. But, says Sven Cole, SkiRack's resident inline skate instructor and aficionado, "A lot of people don't associate it with a trade name but with an activity. Rollerblade has actually been fighting hard to keep their trade name distinct." So name recognition can have its down side. But so far Rollerblade is still selling quite well in Burlington — SkiRack carries about 20 models of that brand alone. Making sense of these and multiple competitors can take an expert guide. That would be Cole. Catch him in the skate department at the store, or check out Skatefest '96 (see sidebar) this Saturday, where representatives of at least half a dozen companies will be showing — and demonstrating — their latest gear. "What separates the companies in general is the way [the skates] fit the foot," says Cole. He indicates that, from a retail perspective, fitting customers can be frustrating because they may have read consumer reports or been influenced by a friend with a favored brand, and believe only one brand is the best. In fact, all the brands carried at SkiRack are good ones — "the industry is so

-£^oxy&en

TECiVICA

competitive, the junk doesn't even make it to the store," notes Cole. The bottom line is, as with all shoes and boots, whether a given skate is comfortable on your feet. "If you're not comfortable," Cole adds, you're not going to enjoy the sport, or push it to the level of your capacity." After comfort, what do you look for? Colors, for one thing. Though it's a superficial consideration, inline skates don't just come in basic black anymore. The fashion-conscious skater may be lured by gold, blue, red, fuschia — not to mention those dayglo yellow wheels. Price, obviously. In general, you pay more for more technology and higher-quality materials. Though the manufacture of skates continues to improve even on basic recreational models, those made for racers or stunt skaters will set you back a bunch of bills. Top of the line? About $1200, says Cole, "but we don't carry those." At SkiRack — which reportedly has one of the biggest selections in the East — the prices range from about $100 to $400. Fine tuning, according to Cole: Oxygen: All its recreational skates, are built in one piece, which creates rigid support and a light boot-frame connection. K2: Makes a "soft" boot, which for many feet is most comfort-

able. The exoskeleton is molded plastic for support. Rollerblade: The most diverse, it makes skates in different categories so can usually accommodate just about any foot. Roces: Tends to be more comfortable for a wider foot. Also pays attention to little details, high-quality hardware. Technica: Just high-end skates

available right now; the fit tends to appeal to women. Koho: For hockey players only (and made by South Burlington's Merrill). One of the most difficult things to do on skates is stop. Therefore, you need to know something about brakes. In older models, you lift your toe to press the rear brake into the ground — a movement that takes some getting used to. Rollerblade is credited for the

RUCES

first Advanced Braking Technology, or ABT, in which the brake is attached to the cuff. You must push your leg forward to activate the brake, and all the wheels stay on the ground. Oxygen has introduced the Power Brake System, or PBS, in which you still lift the toe, but the brake pad rubs against the rear wheel as well as on the ground. Whatever the sys^ tem, Cole cau° tions, the best ° inline brakes can =c do is slow you ^ down gradually, ^ not stop on a ^ dime. So keep jEj alert and try to ^ anticipate when 2 you will have to stop. In emergencies, he says, there are techniques for stopping more quickly. That's what classes are for. But if you're inexperienced, avoid steep hills and traffic. This brings us to the subject of falling. "Whenever I start talking about falling down in my classes, people freak out," says Cole. The truth is: you will fall down, so be prepared and learn how to fall well. He adds that if you're wearing pads, you'll become a better skater because you'll learn to control your fear — by reducing your chances — of getting hurt. "I probably fall four or five times every time I skate," says Cole, "because I try new things. The more you fall, the better you learn how to do it." As for those pads, be sure to try them on before you buy. Legs eeme in even more sizes

than feet. So who's skating? "As long as you can walk," says Cole, "you can skate. That's my credo in teaching." The smallest feet inline skates can accommodate belong to three-year-olds, he says, though he estimates the most active skaters to be between eight and 24. "As you move into older ages, you see more women skaters," notes Cole, who's been on wheels nine years himself. The reason, he speculates, is that inline skating "hasn't been testosterone-laden; it's fun, it's social, there's no pressure, you don't have to be competitive." Skating appeals to a wide range of people, from the casual weekender who just wants a little exercise and fresh air to the aggressive, speed and stunt skater. Besides, Cole adds, they're smaller than a bicycle; you can throw a pair into the trunk of your car, and you skate just about anywhere. Moral: If the skate fits, wear it. Then go have fun. •

tion, the two painters — both women — derive their images from natural forms or processes, natural materials to create pieces that often appear to have some unexplained practical application. T h i s is not to suggest that the canvases and constructions all look alike. O n the contrary, Louise Glass's purplish paintings o f entwined sausage-like shapes produce a creepy sensation that has little in common with the meditative mood evoked by Mia Scheffey's entangled swirls. And sculptors John Hughes o f Brattleboro and Dean Snyder o f Bennington both describe themselves as builders, but Hughes' work is more explicit in its utilitarian associations. Isn't that a kind o f wineskin that Hughes has hung on a wall, and might not that long-necked object on the floor be some sort o f musical instrument? No, these are forms for form's sake. T h e sculptor's purely aesthetic concerns are more readily apparent in other o f his untitled pieces, such as the paper-skinned, steel-ribbed cocoon that appears lighter than air. Snyder, meanwhile, has created something out o f rawhide that looks a lot like a horse collar, or perhaps a life preserver. And his "Lubber," a huge wooden sphere festooned with iron rings, seems vaguely nautical. Despite its limited range, the exhibit presents consistently high-quality work that most northern Vermonters may not have seen. Particularly pleasing is a three-piece suite by Scheffey, also a Brattleboro-based artist. Viewed from left to

fashion from behind a thicket o f grays, until a fiery light is glimpsed as if through a jungle. Louise Glass' works may not appeal to the more squeamish viewer. T h e Fairlee painter's biomorphic forms resemble intestines as well as sexual organs, and their jarring impact is heightened by an incongruous elegance. But these paintings deserve a second look, which may well produce a completely different reaction.

Connoisseurs of this conceit aren't just the cultural elite. Depending upon size and color, a composition will cost anywhere from $100 to $500. "It's not decadent," Fredericks suggests. "People have an attachment to their homes, especially if they're moving away. It's a permanent record." It's also a great gift for the person who already has "everything." Wark's sketches span personal assets. "I've done yachts, pets and antique cars," she says. Some of Fredericks' favorite renderings are of summer camps on the lake — which, when placed in a winter home, can be a heart-warming sight. Paul Bruhn, executive director of the Preservation Trust of Vermont, thought so highly of Fredericks' house portraits that he commissioned her to make a few historical documents. "She's doing a series of six buildings as a gift for one of our most generous donors," he explains, adding that she also illustrated a book the Trust did in conjunction with Vermont Life magazine. Most people simply want traditional renditions, but there's room for a lot of variation on this theme. Portraits can spawn postcards. In fact, one of her cousins reproduced Fredericks' impression of her French chateau on note cards. Ma maison, le souvenir, as it were. •

Fredericks, a full-time painter, punctuates serious studio time with occasional yard work. Her loose and fluid watercolor sketches are architectural renditions with an artful twist. "They have a strong sense of place," she says. "It definitely is more than just a drawing of the house. View is very important."

SEVEN DAYS

M 0 I astrology

August 15-21

| ARICS (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): You've i got it all these days — incandescent I allure, effervescent creativity, ! shimmering exuberance and fresh i approaches to just about every j situation you encounter. The only i thing you don't have quite enough of i is a lucid sense of when enough is ! about to spill over the top and turn I into too much. I'm especially j concerned that you'll be enjoying your i second childhood so ferociously that i you won't heed the sage advice alluded i to by Nancy Griffith and Adam i Duritz in their song "Going Back to i Georgia," namely: Don't get drowned j in the fountain of youth. I TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): If it i didn't sound so sterile, I'd compare the i renewal you're now going through to : the winding up of a reliable old clock. | Another apt but slightly i dehumanizing metaphor: You're like a i drained battery being charged up at a I service station. How about if we leave it at this: You resemble a field that's i been left fallow. Though nothing useful's growing, the nutrients in the soil are regenerating, restoring all the exhausted fertility. GCMINI (May 21-June 20): First those durn American entrepreneurs i had to go to Paris and erect one of i their godawful Burger Kings on the i elegant Champs-Elysees. Soon they'd blighted the streets of the French | capital with Pizza Huts and T G I Friday's. Now, finally, the nation that perfected the art of faux food and inane architecture has proposed the final insult: a new McDonald's in the building where Picasso and Modigliani once bought their paint supplies. Heroically, a sizable gang of native

stalwarts has stood up and declared its undying resistance to the encroachment: Just as you must do, dear Gemini, in the face of an analogous infringement from a source that has already pushed you too far. It's time to draw a line in the sand — or the carpet.

CANCCR

(June 21-July 22): My

best poetry teacher, Lynn LuriaSukenick, once suggested that every poet should learn to identify by name at least 40 flowers, 30 trees and eight clouds. All these years I've felt guilty for not having acted on her wise instruction. This week, in honor of the never-too-late-to-begin energy pouring down on all us Cancerians, I plan to remedy my procrastination. I urge you to do the same. Jumpstart the crucial soul-work you've put off forever.' L C O (July 23-Aug. 22): In the aquatic stadium, I saw the killer whale gently kiss the nine-year-old girl. Later, I fought to adjust to the elephants corkscrewing spine as I rode the beast around a circular track. In the butterfly sanctuary, I welcomed the swallowtail that landed on my shoulder, even when it deposited a tiny, graceful poop. But of all the creatures at Marine World, one dazzled above all others: a strikingly bewitching, perfectly coiffed, charisma-oozing redhead in a white suit — obviously a Leo in full, rampaging glory — striding down the promenade, leaving a wake of gaping onlookers. I was, of course, too awed

gorgeous animal and introduce myself, but if I'd been braver I would have said, "Is it really in your best interest to awe and intimidate everyone?" VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgos are famous for having exotic maladies. You folks wouldn't be caught dead suffering from a mere cold or stomach flu. You insist on contracting things like archaic bacterial infections that no doctor has treated since the 18th century. Likewise, when your mental hygiene goes sour, it generates symptoms that only a magical-realist novelist could dream up. Now cut out the message you just read, and burn it. I decree and predict that your reign as a fascinating sickie is over. With the expansive planet Jupiter in your House of Joy Luck for the next four months and the energizing planet Mars gearing up to cruise through your House of Vitality for five of the next 10 months, you, have the best chance ever to dissolve your chronic health problems.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The Hindus have a holiday in February called Shivaratree. It's considered to be a time when the moon has the least sway over human affairs; when celebrants can enjoy relative freedom from their instincts and the past. I regard the coming days as a comparable phase for you Libras. In the wake of this weeks new moon, you'll have a bellyful of power to create your future out of nothing but own smartest desires.

RPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Are

you one of those people who subscribes to the school of thought captured in the bumpersticker that reads, "The more people I meet, the more I like my dog"? If so, this'll be a gnarly, dog-eat-dog week for you. Schmoozathons are in your future, sweetheart, and you'll be engaged with the theme of networking one way or another — whether it's by building vibrant new connections with friendly panache or by burning bridges with an arsonist's fervor. For best results, I suggest you teach yourself to like people more than dogs.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec.

21): It'll be an excellent week to perform psychic surgery on yourself, to revolt against all the ways you've been typecast, and to wander off into the outback and play didgeridoo for the dingos. O n the other hand, It won't be such a good time for you to try curious experiments you've been warned against by three or more people. O n the other other hand, if just one or two folks have tried to dissuade you, go right ahead. (P.S. If you haven't stolen time yet for a vacation, or if your wanderlust is still throbbing, escape immediately!)

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It's an excellent time fey retreads and reruns, as well as for subsititutes and stand-ins, T h e second chances that come your way this week will probably be far more inviting than they were the first time around. The lost opportunities of last m o n t h will become so thoroughly found that you

may ultimately be glad they slipped away from you back then. You know the instruction on the back of your shampoo bottle? "Lather. Rinse. Repeat." Apply that heady metaphor to everything you do.

AQUARIUS

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

What an oxymoronic week! Hope you're in the mood for sweet 'n' sour paradoxes, because there'll be more than enough to swamp the logicloving parts of your brain. At the top of your list of delicate challenges will be something I like to call tender rivalries and humbling triumphs. If you navigate those okay, you'll get the chance to commune with selfish gifts, lonely cooperation and sacred profanities. If you prove yourself worthy for still more, you may even be lucky enough to experience useful sadness and risky comfort. The best way to respond to all this abracadbra is, of course, to become a hopeful contradiction yourself. PIS CCS (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): I hate to say this to a lyrical lover like you, but you've been too damn responsive for your own good recently. At least temporarily, you could really benefit from having a thicker skin, a higher boiling point, and a slower trigger finger. If there was any such thing as an Insensitivity Training Session, I'd beg you to enroll. In lieu of that, I'll ask you to work on perfecting your poker face. Stare into a mirror and practice showing absolutely no emotion at all. Remember, this is all for emergency use, and just for the immediate future. W h e n the crisis of intensity is finished, please return to your previous state of touchy-feely

How about an earthquake so colossal it turns the city of Los Angeles into an island overrun by criminals and forces oudaw hero Snake (Kurt Russell) Plissken out of retirement. John Carpenter directs this sequel to his 1981 sci-fi classic. ALAS KA ( N R ) From director Fraser C. Heston comes a film that's been described as Xliffhanger for kids." Two young people brave the frozen (is there any other kind?) tundra to rescue their stranded father, played by Dirk Benedict. CHAIN R E A C T I O N * * Keanu Reeves follows the no-go Johnny Mnemonic and the no-show Feeling Minnesota with this action-F/X package from the director of The Fugitive. Reeves plays a lab machinist on the run after being framed for the murder of a scientist, but I've seen better-written, more exciting edge-of-your-seat stuff on Mister Rogers. COLD COMFORT FARM (NR) John Schlesingers comedy of manners and romance, based on a 1932 book by Stella Gibbon. Not a dull moment in this tale of an orphaned girl who seeks refuge with a crew of eccentric country cousins. JACK ( NR) From Francis Ford Coppola comes the story of a boy trapped in a mans body. For everyone who didn't see Big and hasn't grown weary of star Robin Williams' overgrown imp schtick. A T I M E T O K I L L * * * Newcomer Matthew McConaughey walks away with the latest John (The Client) Grisham-Joel Schumacher collaboration, the racially charged story of a young Southern lawyer who defends a black man on trial for killing the rednecks who raped his daughter. With Sandra Bullock, Samuel L. Jackson and Kevin Spacey. MAT I LD A (N R ) Danny DeVito's been associated with a number of winners lately — pictures like Pulp Fiction and Get Shorty. But something tells me he's about to be the mayor of Flop City. The actor directs and stars (along with wife Rhea Perlman) in this big-budget adaptation of a litde-known Roald Dahl children's book about a precocious girl and her boorish parents.

T I N CUP The latest from Ron {Bull Durham) Shelton pairs Kevin Costner as a small town driving range pro with Don Johnson in the role of his more successful rival. Costner attempts to win both the U.S. Open and the heart of Johnson's love interest, Rene Russo.

TRAINSPOTTING*** That's right, just three stars. The latest from Scottish filmmaker Danny (Shallow Grave) Boyle may have four stars coming to it, but, with its speed-of-light gobbledegook dialogue, I honestly couldn't make out half the movie. I just might have missed something pithy, but I doubt it. Fueled by the most lavish critical praise since Pulp THEY SHOOT HORSE, D O N ' T THEY? Fiction, Trainspotting is coming off a smash run in Britain and creating a buzz in this country that is certain to cement Ewan McGregor and Jonny Lee Miller the young directors reputation as the pre-eminent practiplay madcap dopefiends in Danny tioner of the craft in Scotland. Which, of course, is sort of Boyle's Trainspotting. like being the best yodeler in Harlem. Ewan McGregor stars as the narrator and central figure in this luridly comic tale of twentysomething junkies escaping the no-future squalor of working class Edinburgh the only way they can without, you know, working. Their lives revolve around dank pool halls, dotty girlfriends and heroin, though never for a second is there any doubt which is their first love. Between stupors and the crime sprees they necessitate, Boyle treats the viewer to pearls of addict wisdom ("I guess I'm just a bad person") and the occasional hallucinogenic flourish — a heroin user disappearing down a toilet — get the symbolism? But the film really doesn't have a whole lot more to say on the subject than did, for example, The Basketball Diaries. So why all the hoopla? Simple. These are the gooniest, most mesmerizingly whacked-out young existentialists ever put on film. They're stupid, heartless, violent, unsodalized, unapologedcally self-centered and, at times, wildly entertaining. As conceived by Boyle in this adaptation of Irvine Welsh's 1993 cult novel, they're a punk band that plays no music; a group in which each member is Sid Vicious. As the vacant but loveable dufus Spud, Ewen Bremner is alone worth the price of admission particularly in the scene where he deliberately blows a job interview with the help of a little too much speed. Its a performance that mixes comedy with pathos and provides the human link between this cast of zombie characters and their warmbloo ed audience. A warped cross-breeding of A Clockwork Orange, Goodfillas and A Hard Day's Night, Boyles' latesi a nihilistic lark that offers a few and a memorable image or two. It is adventurously, defiantly original. But is it a great film? I'd have to just say no.

marriage trend means, for one thing, a delay of childbirth until the mid 30s at the earliest. As a result, what Lipsky calls the "high-impact parenting stuff"— the years of chasing toddlers and staying up nights — is likely to fall toward

We pay a price for the , decade of self-discovery. Earlier generations could expect a second burst of independence beginning at about age 45, whereas we will likely have or even preteens at that stage. Lipsky describes the P choice this way: J= "We can take the 10 years now, or l ! we can take them § later/' -o We are, J= beyond a shadow of a doubt, taking them now, firmly establishing the 20s as a time of uncertainty. Compared to the bounding couples of I960, we inch toward marriage with skepticism and exquisite self-consciousness. The question, of course, is whether these matches will hold out longer than the last round. • This article first appeared in the Boston Phoenix.
