BIG FISH ON THE FOOD CHAIN Both Michael Colby in his article on USDA meat inspection ["Left Field," August 14] as well as Peter Freyne in his... column ["Inside Track, August 14] touched on a very serious problem: big agribusiness. Here in Vermont it seems we only wake up to the issue when we have a large farm operation proposed for our community. But even if we don't, it's an issue that should concern everyone who eats or breathes. What is at stake in Charlotte and in Highgate is much larger than a fly infestation or a threeacre manure pit. What is at stake is our food supply, the land and who will control it... Consolidation — not the number of cows — is the issue here: consolidation of land ownership, of wealth and of control over our food supply. Not only have we seen the growth of huge monopolies such as IBP, Cargill and Suiza Foods, in recent years a wave of mergers and acquisitions in the food retail sector has created equally powerful corporate monopolies (with Wal-Mart sitting at the very top of the food chain).
Who would you like to see on stage, and doing what? I would love to see Pink in Grease. The role as Rizzo seems pretty appropriate for her. The bad girl who, underneath it all, isn't bad at all. That would rock. — Ellen Doggett Prep cook The Windjammer Burlington
There's only one choice: The Beatles. If there were any way to bring Jottn and George back and put them together witl) Paul and Ringo, nothing would keep me from that appearance. :
According to a recent study of
consolidation in the food industry • conducted by rural sociologist William Heffernan, the emerging food system will ultimately be organized around five or six global food chain clusters, which are on track to control every stage of the food system from seed to plate. That doesn't bode well for the safety of our food, for the quality of our air or our water, or for our rural communities... The problem with large farms will not be solved merely by limiting the numbers of cows in the barns, but by revitalizing our rural communities through building a strong local food economy and by keeping the land in diversity. Here in Vermont, we have a lot of work to do, but if it can be done anywhere, it can be done here. Where to start? Buy local. — Alexis Lathem Communication Director, Rural Vermont Montpelier PISSED AT T H E PAPER Hey, I just read my last issue of Seven Days\ As an ardent observer of society and politics, I have never enjoyed the simplistic liberal outlook that permeates your paper like so much stale urine.

POLLINA FOR LT. GOVERNOR The usually astute Peter Freyne misses the mark in his comments concerning the Lt. Governor's race. He writes that Anthony Pollina did well in a poll because of name recognition, when in fact Mr. Pollina does well because he actually has a message for Vermont voters, unlike his opponents. It also appears that Freyne would like Mr. Pollina to run as something he is not. Freyne cites a few examples, such as Senator Leahy, who is about to give banks and credit-card companies a huge break with the changing of the

RACINE FOR GOVERNOR Doug Racine is my choice for Vermont's next governor. I have known Doug for over 20 years. From the beginning, he impressed me with his commitment to making Vermont a better place for all Vermonters. His capacity to work with others and get things done impressed me even more. The foundation for Doug's vision for Vermont is reserving the best of what we have and have stood for. He supports economic development that preserves our heritage, open land and pristine environment. He recognizes the importance of farming to
Vermont's future and acted on this principle. He led the effort to establish the Housing and conservation Trust Fund. Doug has been more consistent that anyone else in public office in supporting civil rights for all Vermonters. Doug Racine has a quiet, steady style. After seeking input from many stakeholders, Doug works to craft policies that are reasonable and fair for all... — Sandra Dooley S. Burlington

To the Rescue Twice in June, firefighters in Washington, D.C., had to resort to borrowing ordinary garden hoses to battle house . fires because their official equipment was inoperative. In the first incident, a valve on the first pumper truck to arrive on the scene did not work. In the second incident, a fire broke out in a house directly behind a firehouse. Firefighters responded on foot because their regular pumper truck was being serviced and their reserve truck was unusable because two of its valves were severely leaking. The blaze caused $50,000 worth of damage when firefighters were unable to control it, because, according to Lt. Patrick Kelly, who was in command at the scene, it "had gotten so big that the garden hose was doing very little."
Slightest Provocations Police investigating the shooting deaths of Pearle Cogswell, 66, and Eugene Cogswell, 75, in Milo, Maine, concluded that the incident was a murder-suicide resulting from an argument that began over a blueberry pie. Pearle Cogswell called a relative to report that her husband objected to her plans to give the freshly baked pie away. Later, she c-alkd police to report that she was a victim I of domestic assault after her
husband threw a glass of wine in her face. Stephen McCausland of the Maine Department of Public Safety said the dispute over the pie apparently escalated to the wine incident and then to the shootings. Investigators found a handgun beside Eugene Cogswell and the uneaten pie on the kitchen counter. • A judge in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, ruled that Daniel Strouss, 19, will stand trial for trying to kill a friend because the friend had given him a wedgie. Prosecutors said Strouss was attending a Phish concert when his friend Eric Kassoway, 19, sneaked up behind him and yanked up his underwear. Strouss, who doesn't dispute the prosecution's version of events, held a grudge for nearly a year before shooting Kassoway in the arm and leg with a 9mm gun.
Sex Is Its Own Punishment Sex may shorten your life, according to researchers at England's University of Sheffield.

Auto Erotica A tryst turned fatal when two young New York City lovers were overcome by carbon monoxide fumes while having sex in the backseat of a running car they parked in a garage. Yan Wang, 23, and her boyfriend, Yen-Chun Hwang, 22, were found dead in the garage of his family's home in Queens. Because it was hot, the couple apparently left the car running so they could use the air conditioner, police said, and closed the garage door for privacy. Newsday reported that Hwang's uncle heard the car running in the garage and found Wang in the backseat. He spotted his nephew on the garage floor, apparently having tried to crawl to safety. Hwang's family members called 911. Detectives were puzzled to find Hwang had his clothes on while Wang was nude until Hwang's mother admitted that both had been nude, but she had started trying to dress the couple to spare the • families the embarrassment over the way the victims died,

• When Ontario police stopped a car south of Barrie, the officer said he was "astonished" to discover that the couple was having sex while they were driving. "Both occupants of the vehicle were engaged in activities other than that normally expected of persons driving an automobile," senior constable Norm Galestzoski told The Toronto Star. "The female passenger was completely nude, and the male driver was also in a state of undress." Galestzoski said the officer charged the 31-year-old man with driving without a license and 25-year-old woman with allowing him to drive her vehicle without a license. They then left "with a reminder from police to enjoy their extracurricular activities at home."

The condom maker Condomi reported that its launch of a new extra-big version was a flop in the United Kingdom because British men were too shy to buy them. "Research shows that most men rate their penis as smaller than average, which of course is not true, and may be an illusion based on the distorted view of the genitals from above," said Glenn Wilson, a psychologist employed by Condomi to examine the issue. "Knowledge of this effect may be reassuring to many men and help raise their self-esteem." The Condomi XXL is 200mm long, 20mm longer than its standard size, and 54mm across, 2mm wider than its other products. "We launched the XXL condom in the U.K. on the basis that there is a demand for a larger condom. In all Condomi's other markets it is selling well,"-Condomi's Victoria Wells said. "Unfortunately, U.K. retailers aren't as convinced as we are that British men are well-endowed, but we hope that our research, coupled with Dr. Wilson's research, will help cojivince them to now start selling the XXL-product." ® ;... :.

hrough some miserable twist of calendars and fate, this column is scheduled to run on the very anniversary of the day everyone now calls 9/11, without elaboration. No elaboration is needed, which is why we're getting so much of it, I expect. The papers are all talking about how the world in general and the U.S. in particular have "changed" in the last 12 months. Last year it was "A Nation Challenged." This year its "A Nation Changed," "everything has changed," "the biggest life-changing event" in American history, etc. If this is true — and I don't think it is — the "change" has been only for the worse. The United States has begun a military build-up in the Middle East on a scale not seen since the socalled Gulf War of 1991. A gigantic, authoritarian, unsupervised, unAmerican police apparatus is under construction in the nation's capital. Congress has "relaxed" its oversight of the FBI and the CIA — not to mention the new Department of Homeland Security — with the appalling excuse that "this is not a good time to put pressure on the FBI to behave itself." Even the thieves on Wall Street are getting a free ride this week. It's being taken as common wisdom that the recently deflated bubble of greed and usury got its start — I quote The New York Times — "when a jumbo jet smashed into 2 World Trade Center," leaving a lot of fat-cat executives too "misty-eyed" to function properly. "Wall Street is a different place today — emotionally, financially and physically. Richard A. Grasso, the chairman of the New York Stock Exchange, calls the last 12 months 'far and away the darkest year in our history.'"
Heritage Dictionary of the English Language: "A philosophy or system of government that advocates or exercises a dictatorship of the extreme right, typically through the merger of state and business leadership, together with an ideology of belligerent nationalism." I know of no regime in the Middle East that fits this description apart from the current government of Israel, which, according to its own ministers, is about to go broke from crushing Arabs under its boot — another compelling reason, no doubt, for the Bushmen's plan to annex both Saudi and Iraqi oilfields. Don't imagine that the war we may have any second is about anything else. And please note that I say "the current government" of Israel and spare me your accusa-

Pardon me for saying it, but this is an insult to the dead. And all of it plays right into the hands of Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Ashcroft and the most disgusting opportunist on the international scene, Tony Blair. The British Prime Minister defies his own party, his own country, all of Europe, all intelligence, all advice and all morality in his eagerness to brown-nose Bush. Well, maybe I've got that wrong. The most disgusting opportunist on the scene right now is probably Karl Rove, Dubya's "chief strategist," a Texas swine who previously advised the most disgusting senator in Washington, Phil Gramm, and who recently had the audacity to rip off Abraham Lincoln by sticking Lincoln's words into Pipsqueaks mouth: "I am a patient man." If you didn't know those words were Lincoln's — taken from a letter explaining his position in the American Civil War — it's because you don't know your own history, which is just what these thugs are counting on. Note to letter-writers: Is "thugs" a better word to describe the Bush administration than "fascists?" Do we need a definition of fascism? I think we do. From the American
tions of anti-Semitism. I'm no more critical of Israel as a nation than I am of the U.S. as a nation, which is to say, at the moment, that I'm extremely critical of both. It's also true that I expect more and better of Israel, a democracy, than I do of the theocracies, autocracies and monarchies that surround and threaten it. But I can't and won't condone the recent declaration of Israeli chief of staff Moshe Ya'alon that this threat is "internal" and "invisible, like a cancer," that all Palestinians, individually, pose "an existential threat," and that "there are all kinds of solutions to cancerous manifestations. Some will say it is necessary to amputate organs. But at the moment, I am applying chemotherapy." If you need to ask whose words these sound exactly like, please see "history," above. Second note to letter-writers: I have "visited the Middle East." Indeed, I've lived in the Middle East. In fact, I've got a "Middle Eastern" stepmother and two "Middle Eastern" half-sisters, and I've heard my stepmother, at least, describe the late king of Morocco as "a stupid old man." Granted, these words were spoken in the safety of the home and under a dictatorship that's, well, mild compared to some. Its rather like the dictatorship we're going to get when Bush & Company are through, and if you keep your voice down and play your cards right, you'll probably come out OK. You just won't be American anymore. Third note to letter-writers: I don't believe that "Satan's beauty is as beautiful as God's," which — in theory, at least — is non-violent. I never thought I'd be quoting the Pope with approval, but when His Holiness remarks, as he did last week, that "injustice and oppression can lead desperate people into terrorism" and asks the world to address the "underlying causes" of violence and hatred, I'm on the Church's side, never mind what it's done to some little boys. It hasn't done enough to the little boys in Washington, and I hope, God willing, that it does. Soon. ®

who the real enemy is.

ways, the tragedy of 9/11, which could have brought us wisdom and helped chart a more sane future, has been taken away from us, devoured by our all-enveloping media and twisted by political forces intent upon imposing their wills on the public. Everyone with an agenda to advance has taken up 9/11 as an explanation, a rationale, a reason for their point of view and way of thinking. This has provoked new battles each day, as the Bush administration, loser according to the popular vote and elected by
that the act was falsely framed. A singular and unbelievably "lucky" criminal act carried out by a small group of fanatics acting on behalf of no government was declared an act of war by Bush, Cheney and the mainstream media. Viewed through this lens, 9/11 created an opportunity to initiate the perpetual war against terrorism that we have been fighting ever since. As John Tirman, program director of the Social Science Research Council, writes, "It is conceivable — likely, even — that
$100 billion of tax money annually, and much more in private funds and opportunity costs, to 'protect' against such a threat is, at the least, questionable."
What We Gave Up In his first address to the nation after 9/11, President Bush said America had been attacked for being a beacon of freedom and opportunity in the world. Yet over the past year, his administration has done its best to deprive us of some of those very

freedoms. T h e U.S.A. Patriot Act — passed hastily and with little dissent in October — was the first salvo in a series of new legislations aimed at arming the government with an expansive array of powers, putting our very basic rights, be it due process or privacy, in jeopardy. O n e of the most disgraceful consequences of post-9/11 hysteria was a rash of hate crimes directed against people from the Middle East and South Asia. Overnight, simply looking Arab created the suspicion of guilt. Anyone wearing a turban or a scarf was a target not just for enraged citizens but also law enforcement. Nowhere has the Bush administration's agenda found greater expression than in U.S. foreign policy, which shows signs of returning to its ugly Cold War roots. The modest gains of the past decade have been wiped away within a year. N o w a distant memory are: controls in military spending, declassification of documents, limitations on the drug war, renewed emphasis on human rights and environmental standards and negotiations with Iran and North Korea. The United States has consistently undermined new multilateral human-rights agreements, ?n= o., the creation of an International Criminal C o u r t to

try war crimes and the international torture convention. Since Sept. 11, the Bush administration has offered law-enforcement or military training to a growing list of new and old allies — such as Azerbaijan, Ethiopia, Yemen, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Colombia and Indonesia — who have shameful records of h u m a n rights violations, including torture and assassination. In June, the president asked for and received from Congress an additional $1 billion for training programs and permission to lift all aid restrictions based on human-rights concerns. T h e most significant change, which will have both international and domestic consequences, is the skyrocketing increase in military budgets. In February, the president proposed a $2.1 trillion wartime budget over the next five years, which included $396 billion in military spending for fiscal year 2 0 0 3 as well as a contingency for another $10 billion to pay for the war in Afghanistan. T h e Pentagon's total proposed budget will be the biggest since the Cold War. "In combination with the tax cuts," John Tirman writes, "this Pentagon spree is likely to sink the economy with deficit spending."

Ch-ch-ch-ch Changes continued from page 11a What Is Changing It is uncertain how much longer the Bush administration's preoccupation with the war on terrorism will hold the public's attention as citizens grapple with real, day-to-day problems. Many signs point to a growing backlash that may soon reach its tipping point. There is powerful momen-
turn in the activist community as groups organize protests decrying civil-liberties abuses and the ongoing bombing of Afghanistan. Groups like the ACLU have been working tirelessly to protect the rights of immigrants. And many Americans are waking up to the reality that there is a war to be fought, but it is not in Iraq. As New York Stock Exchange chairman Richard Grasso said recently, "We've got to wage a war against terrorism in the boardroom, against misleading investors."
It is the public's loss of confidence in business and corporations — the loss of faith that corporate America could be counted on for our sources of wealth and progress — that will likely far outweigh the impact of 9/11 in the long run. "Big business is increasingly viewed as the biggest threat to America's future," writes pollster Ruy Teixeira in The American Prospect. "Is there any doubt that the chicanery of Enron executives and that of a growing who's who
gressional contests, the White House has tried hard to put the invasion of Iraq frorft and center. Yet public support for attacking Iraq is dwindling and the false consensus built on fear and apathy is finally showing signs of falling apart. An Aug. 23 USA Today poll shows just 53 percent of Americans in favor of sending ground troops to the Persian Gulf, down from 74 percent in November 2001. The same poll found Bush's approval rating at 65 percent — still healthy, but at its lowest since before 9/11.
signs of the backlash are the woes that have lately plagued Attorney General John Ashcroft, the main advocate for repressive legislation. In a front-page article in July, The New York Times revealed that several members of the Bush administration have expressed concern that Ashcroft "seems to be overstating the evidence of terrorist threats." Even religious conservatives, typically Ashcroft's most staunch supporters, "have become deeply troubled by his actions... They cite his antiter-
spying efforts considerably. And then there is the downfall of the attorney general's pet project, TIPS — the Terrorist Information and Protection System. After harsh condemnation from across the political spectrum, and efforts, led by arch-Republican Dick Armey, to ban the measure, TIPS is dead in the water.
of corporate CEOs has done more long-term damage to the U.S. economy than the efforts of anti-American terrorists?" asked columnist Robert Sheer. "We ought to wake up to the reality that business greed is subverting the American way of life — and hurting the image of American capitalism and democracy — more effectively than the ploys of any foreign enemy." It is no surprise that in the face of failed domestic policies, the stock-market plunge and tense con-
Fear of terrorism is now a distant fifth in the list of top issues in the upcoming congressional races. The economy is the number-one issue for voters, followed by Social Security and Medicare, education and affordable health care. In a vivid example of how restless the populace is growing with the direction of its leadership, 56 percent of Americans now think the country is headed in the wrong direction, up from 39 percent just one montlijLgo. One of the most dramatic
rorist positions as enhancing the kind of government power that they instinctively oppose." On the heels of this revelation came an order by a federal judge demanding that the Justice Dept. release the names of those detained after 9/11, some 1200 immigrants of Arab and South Asian descent. Recently it was made public that the secretive U.S. Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act court, concerned about Ashcroft's aggressive tactics, has ordered him to scale back his
bomb alert with a feeding frenzy, but little critical analysis. News coverage was a constant flurry of dramatic events, stripped of their broader context, thereby exacerbating the climate of fear. But the media are finally showing signs of maturity, asking tough questions on a wide range of issues, including civilian deaths in Afghanistan, the suspension of civil liberties and constitutional rights domestically, and the rampant corruption in many corporations.

BS anchorman Dan Rather is a bellwether for the mainstream media's change of heart. Just after 9/11, many highly visible media commentators felt the need to prove their patriotic credentials at the expense of their commitment to their trade. Rather went on the David Letterman show to declare his fealty to George Bush: "Wherever he wants me to line up, just tell me where." The same Dan Rather recently admitted that many members of the U.S. media were reluctant to ask tough questions about the war on terrorism out of fear of being labeled unpatriotic. "What we are talking about here — whether one wants to recognize it or not, or call it by its proper name or not — is a form of selfcensorship. I worry that patriotism run amok will trample the very values that the country seeks to defend." O n e astonishing post-9/11 phenomenon has been the popularity of radical authors like Michael Moore and Noam Chomsky, who have each sold hundreds of thousands of books highly critical of Bush and the war on terrorism. T h e popularity of these writers "as dissenting authors has extended beyond the liberal fringe and represents the fruits of a grassroots movement that corporate America and potentially the government can no longer ignore," writes Eric Demby in the Village Voice. After battling with publisher
HarperCollins to get his book distributed, Moore promptly sold more than 500,000 copies of Stupid White Men. The book has perched on The New York Times bestseller list for 25 consecutive weeks, sitting at number one for 13 of those weeks, making it one of the top sellers of 2002. Moore has become convinced, as he travels around the country, that he is no longer preaching to the converted. "I look out at the auditorium and I don't see tree huggers and the granola heads. I see Mr. and Mrs. Middle America who voted for George Bush and who just lost $60,000 because their 401(k) is gone. And they believed in the American Dream as it was designed by the Bushes and Wall Street, and then they woke up to realize it was just that — a dream," he told the Voice. Noam Chomsky's book 9/11, in which he calls the U.S. one of the world's leading terrorist states, has passed the 200,000 mark and has also sat on a number of bestseller lists, surprising even its author. "For many people," Chomsky said, "the atrocities of 9/11 were a kind of wakeup call, which has lead to considerable openness, concern, skepticism and dissidence." Reflection Time As the nation reflects on the one-year anniversary of the attacks, Americans struggle to make sense of it all. We are blanketed by media coverage from
every conceivable angle, confused by powerful emotions. In many cases, the lessons and the personal sorrow of 9/11 have been exploited by the media, the attacks turned into spectacle and the disaster site reduced to maudlin entertainment. As Michelle Goldberg writes on Salon, "Some people, perhaps many, visit Ground Zero to pay their respects — to get a sense of the enormity of what happened. Yet the atmosphere at Ground Zero is nearly devoid of somber reverence. It feels like just another sentimental landmark, a place for people to get their picture taken so they can tell the folks back home that they were there." O n e of our greatest challenges is to treat 9/11 with respect and sensitivity — to honor those who were lost and the sacrifices they made, and help each other with the necessary work of moving forward. It has been a difficult year, but we are learning to put the event and its aftermath into perspective. Many Americans now appreciate the profound consequences the tragedy has had on individual lives, but they no longer allow 9/11 to exclusively shape their way of looking at the world. We are gradually becoming more aware of what is truly important. O n this anniversary of the darkest day in American history, we must remind ourselves of what we still have: the power and the means to make a difference. ®

O
ne year has passed since Sept. 11. Yet we, the American people, still don't know exactly what happened. There are still no plans for a public investigation of how more than 3000 Americans lost their lives, or of what could have been done to prevent the attacks or reduce their impact. Secrecy has been the watchword of the obsessively inscrutable Bush administration. So preoccupied is the administration with keeping the peoples business away from the people that, rather than spark a national discussion of what went wrong and what we could do better, these public servants are asking members of Congress to take lie-detector tests — to find out who's been leaking plans to attack Iraq. Without a doubt, military intelligence requires secrecy. But there is no conceivable national security interest in keeping Americans in the dark about Sept. 11. A crisis whose first few weeks were marked by patriotic unity rapidly devolved into a divisive "war on terrorism" marked by opportunistic assaults on the Bill of Rights, old-fashioned oil wars and a cynical neoMcCarthyism whereby those who questioned Bush and the Republican Party were smeared as "anti-American." United We Stand bumper stickers aside, the terrorists have skillfully turned us against each other: citizen against immigrant, Republican against Democrat, Christian against Muslim. Secrecy only deepens those divisions. To hell with closed-door congressional hearings. America needs a full, open, publicly televised investigation into 9/11, and
it needed it last October. Using the post-JFK assassination Warren Commission as a model is a start, though that panel's lack of openness fed conspiracy theories that continue to cause Americans to distrust their government four decades later. T h e best way to avoid alienating the public from its public servants is to keep an investigation 100 percent transparent. During times of crisis both the electorate and the elected forget that this country belongs to the people. As American citizens and taxpayers, therefore, we deserve — and should demand — honest answers to the following still-unanswered questions.
W
hat did Bush know and when did he know it? A few months ago it was revealed that while vacationing in Crawford, Texas on Aug. 6, 2001, Bush received an "analytical report" warning from National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice that a terrorist attack was imminent. W h a t was the exact nature of that warning? How detailed was it? Should Bush have cut short his vacation and headed back to Washington? The administration has stonewalled on this issue, but they can only allay suspicions of a September Surprise by coming clean now about the briefings the president received before 9/11. T h e National Security Agency maintains a sophisticated voice- and keyword-recognition computer system called Echelon. Did Echelon cough up the Sept. 10 warnings? T h e NSA acknowledges that it "intercepted" two messages — one said "tomorrow is zero hour" — from terrorists indicating that the next day, Sept. 11, would be the date of a major attack. Unfortunately,

W o r k s h o p s a n d classes s t a r t i n g t h i s f a l l : those messages weren't processed and evaluated until it was too late, on Sept. 12. A former NSA director told the French magazine Le Nouvel Observateur that Echelon uses automation to monitor every phone call, fax transmission, e-mail and wire transfer in the world. Did the Sept. 10 warning come from Echelon? Is Echelon being used to monitor ordinary Americans? Is

W
hy didn't our Air Force shoot down the hijacked planes? Air traffic controllers lost contact with all four aircraft within minutes of takeoff. Two were off course and ignored controllers for more than an hour and a half, yet the mightiest air defense.network in the world failed to prevent the suicide bombers from striking their targets. Did overworked air traffic controllers fail to notice the errant planes? How long did it take them to get the word to military authorities? Did a bureaucratically inept Air Force
would happen in the event of-a nuclear first strike against the U.S.? Would an increased budget have increased that number, and what is our current field strength? What is American policy concerning hijackings? Had an Air Force jet successfully intercepted one of the doomed flights, would its pilot have been ordered to shoot it down? If so, would that order have had to come from the president, or would a lowerranked official be sufficient? If a shooting were authorized, would it ever be implemented over a densely populated area? Passengers need to know where they stand before they board a plane. Was United Flight 93 shot down over Pennsylvania? The
Washington. It seems unlikely that a cockpit voice recording of a struggle between passengers and jihadis exists. If it did, why not release such an inspiring artifact to a public hungry for inspiration? All 9/11 flight information, including any Flight 93 recordings, ought to be given to the media. And it's time for the military to indicate whether or not it, rather than the passengers, brought down the jet. Why didn't federal law require reinforced cockpit doors? This common-sense proposal had been adopted by carriers in other countries years earlier, but not in the United States. Did the air-

the equivalent of four, normalwidth, 60-story skyscrapers full of a banned carcinogen was pulverized and released in a cloud that blanketed lower Manhattan and Brooklyn. The Environmental Protection Agency has never come clean on what may eventually become known as America's Chernobyl, but New Yorkers deserve to know the full extent of their exposure.
Why doesn't the Bush administration want a real investigation of 9/11? Who skimped on New York Fire Department communications? Scores of FDNY personnel died in the stairwells of the World Trade Center after they'd been ordered to evacuate the buildings â&#x20AC;&#x201D; because they could not hear those orders on their antiquated radio system. The fire department had requested up-to-date equipment years earlier. Which city officials refused to allocate the necessary funding, causing firefighters to die needlessly? Do the FDNY and other urban fire departments now have better communications? How much asbestos was released by the World Trade Center collapse? The complex was one-third completed when builders stopped using asbestos fire retardant, which means that
Why was the Pentagon so vulnerable? Defense Department employees perished there, and the attack revealed that even the headquarters of American military power can be successfully targeted. Does the Pentagon have a surface-to-air missile system that could avert similar catastrophes in the future? If not, one should be constructed. What about the other knives? After American planes were grounded, investigators found box cutters attached under seats on Delta flights out of Boston's Logan airport and from Atlanta bound for Brussels. Was anyone ever arrested in connection with would-be hijackings of these other flights? What were the intended targets of those aborted
hijackings? Were those box cutters, and those on the four hijacked flights, placed there by personnel who service aircraft? ("These look like an inside job," a U.S. official told Time magazine.) Or were they smuggled aboard through lax security checkpoints by would-be hijackers? Were there other plots? American officials have questioned thousands of individuals in connection with 9/11. Have they uncovered other schemes intended for that day, or for later on?
D
id anyone take responsibility or make demands? It's difficult to imagine that the group that carried out an act as expensive and carefully planned as 9/11 chose not to claim credit for it. Furthermore, terrorist organizations typically make demands â&#x20AC;&#x201D; requests for changes in policy, say, or the release of political prisoners. Secretary of State Colin Powell initially promised to provide proof of Osama bin Laden's Al Qaeda group's leading role as instigators of 9/11, but has since reneged on that pledge. Moreover, that assertion doesn't fit bin Laden's known methods; rather than plan or carry out operations himself, he usually agrees to fully or partially fund plots conceived and executed by other Islamist groups. If the Bush Administration received communiques from a group or groups claiming responsibility for 9/11, Americans need to know that.
When did the U.S. decide to invade Afghanistan? As recently as April 2001, the Bush administration funneled millions of dollars in aid to the Taliban in order to reward the hardline Islamic regime for virtually eliminating opium production. By June, however, relations had cooled noticeably and invasion plans were being prepared. Would we have invaded Afghanistan if Sept. 11 hadn't happened? Were there any discussions between future U.S. puppet Hamid Karzai and the Bush administration before or immediately after 9/11? Where was Osama bin Laden on 9/11? Afghans told reporters that bin Laden and his entourage fled Afghanistan for Kashmir on Sept. 10, yet military officials were saying as late as January that the world's most wanted man was holed up in the Tora Bora region. Did the U.S. really know where Osama was on 9/11, and if so, where was he? Why weren't American commandos inserted into Afghanistan or Pakistan in order to apprehend him? If the U.S. knew that he had left Afghanistan, is this why it refused to negotiate with the Taliban for his extradition? How many civilians died in Afghanistan? Perhaps the most deliberately underreported story of 2001-2002 was the number of Afghan civilians killed by American bombs, missiles, mines and bullets. (Estimates begin at CNN's conservative 3500.) While
the Pentagon's argument that it is difficult to track these things from satellites and high-flying planes rings true, there's no doubt that they know more than they care to admit. We deserve to know how many innocent people our tax dollars have killed, and how many of their relatives now have reason to despise America. Is the government spying on American citizens? Not only is the federal government asking postal workers and meter readers to report on anything unusual they see in our homes, anecdotal evidence suggests that opponents of administration policy are being targeted for wiretaps and other forms of harassment and intimidation by government intelligence agencies. Obviously there is no place for such retro-Cold War behavior in this country; the FBI, CIA and NSA must reveal and cease all such unconstitutional activities against Americans. Why doesn't the Bush administration want a real investigation of 9/11? The House and Senate, whose intelligence committees are now meeting in private, are considering bills that would set up limited, closed-door, independent investigative panels, but Bush has stymied even those watered-down efforts at openness, arguing they "would cause a further diversion of essential personnel from their duties fighting the war." What is he hiding? Americans pay George W. Bush's salary, and Americans deserve to know what he's doing. (7)

What's
Left?
Political columnist Jim Hightower on Saddam, civil liberties and the American flag BY KEVIN J. KELLEY
J
im Hightower is the U.S. left's closest equivalent to the right's Rush Limbaugh — only much funnier. Both commentators have been able to attract and hold mass audiences (though Limbaugh's has a lot more mass) by making ideology sound like common sense. Each speaks persuasively to everyday Americans in language they understand. Hightower will be bringing his trademark white Stetson to Burlington September 22 for a fundraiser on behalf of Congressman Bernie Sanders' re-election campaign. Besides being political soulmates, the two share a gift for effectively marketing their messages. One may speak with a Texas twang and the other with a Brooklyn bark, but both strike populist chords that resonate with constituencies other leftists seldom reach. When Hightower ran for Texas railroad commissioner in 1980, it was reportedly not unusual to see pickup trucks bearing Ronald Reagan and Jim Hightower bumper stickers. And it's an anecdotal
Seven Days: Soon after the attacks, you warned in one o f your commentaries that the Bush administration was preparing "a massive new program of electronic surveillance of We the People." Have your worries about a loss of civil liberties been borne out? Jim Hightower: Oh, absolutely. There's been, and continues to be, a major assault on our civil liberties. Examples include the post-September 11 detentions along with Ashcroft's contentions that the American court system no longer applies in such cases. We also see the unleashing of the CIA to engage again in assassinations, and the FBI returning to its bad old days of sending agents into churches and political organizations. SD: You generally put a lot of faith in the American people. How come there's not been more of an uproar about all this? Is it that most Americans simply aren't aware that their freedoms are in danger? JH: Yeah — most Americans probably aren't aware of what the Bush administration is up to in this regard. Its being done in the name of just going after Arab
axiom of Burlington politics that a significant number of Old North Enders voted for Reagan for president in>November 1980 and Sanders for mayor in March 1981. Hightower, a lifelong Democrat, and Sanders, an inveterate Independent, did support different candidates imthe 2000 presidential race. Their choices were counterintuitive, however, with Hightower backing third-party idealist Ralph Nader and Sanders siding pragmatically with Democrat Al Gore. Hightower and Sanders developed their similar understandings of American mainstream politics from both the inside and the outside, though in reverse order. Bernie ran for office several times as a fringe candidate before achieving his big breakthrough to Burlington City Hall. In the 1960s and early '70s, Hightower worked on Capitol Hill as an aide to a U.S. senator from Texas. He then returned home to serve' as editor of the outspoken Texas Observer, and he ran successfully, twice, for the post of state agriculture commissioner. After holding that office from 1983 to 1991, Hightower
immigrants and some other darkskinned people. But the majority will eventually figure out that if it can happen to a few minorities, it can happen to all of us. I guarantee there will be much more public outrage once it's widely understood what Bush and company are up to. SD: What about Bush's threats to attack Iraq? Would you personally support military action against Saddam Hussein if it were shown that there's a real danger of him using weapons of mass destruction? JH: If there were convincing evidence of a clear danger of Saddam directly attacking us, if our national security were truly at stake, then yes, I'd support that. But the criterion for me is that the threat from Iraq must be shown to be credible and imminent. SD: But it's very unlikely "that Saddam has the means to attack the United States directly. A more likely danger might be a chemical or biological attack on Israel. Would you support U.S. military action to prevent that? JH: We have alliances we're pledged to defend, whether it's
left the electoral arena and has no intention, he now says, of ever going back. In recent years, Hightower has established a nationwide presence in print and on the airwaves, where he ridicules the "goobers" and "greedheads" who comprise the American corporate and political establishment. He writes a column for The Nation, publishes his own monthly newsletter, The Hightower Lowdown, composes daily radio commentaries carried by 60 stations, and travels the country giving more than 100 speeches a year. Many of his appearances these days are part of the Rolling Thunder Down-Home Democracy Tour, a leftwing, country-and-western, rock 'n' roll roadshow that sometimes includes progressive ice-cream mogul Ben Cohen. In his spare time, Hightower writes books, the latest being If the Gods Had Meant Us to Vote, They Would Have Given Us Candidates. On the anniversary of the terrorist attacks, Seven Days asked Hightower to assess the political developments of the past year.

Israel or Italy. That's a tough one, though. We could get involved in something that's not what it seems. Remember, it was the first President George — Washington — who warned the country to steer clear of entangling alliances. Now we're learning just how entangling some of those alliances really can be. SD: Did you support the U.S. war against the Taliban and Al Qaeda? Did you think that was a just response to what happened on September 11? JH: I supported the U.S. effort to find Al Qaeda and other terrorists hiding in Afghanistan. But the question I asked then is the question I'm still asking: What happens once the Taliban are gone? We put the Taliban in
place to start with, and so now that we've removed them, what exactly are we replacing them with? I'm also not into blanket endorsements of unlimited war. Fear of terrorism looks like it might become a replacement for the communist bugaboo that drove our foreign policy for decades. SD: Yes, it seems sometimes like the Cold War is happening all over again. Back then there was the fear of nuclear Armageddon, and now there's paranoia about suitcase nukes exploding in Times Square. JH: Paranoia is very bad for democracy. A paranoid society is one that's willing to surrender its freedoms in order to ward off

some shadowy threat. And remember that when the Cold War started, one of the first things they tried to do was to shut down dissent. SD: Speaking of dissent, how disgusted are you by the Democrats' failure to join meaningfully in the debate over attacking Iraq? Some Americans are saying it'd be a huge blunder, but you don't hear leading Democrats saying that, right? JH: It's pathetic. The Democrats' disappearance from the debate is dishonorable. They have an obligation in Congress to speak out, but there's mainly silence. Thank God for the few courageous peo-

ast year we were working on our fall performing arts issue on September 11. Like everyone else that day, we had a hard time tearing ourselves away from the news reports. If those pictures from New York and Washington and Pennsylvania were a little out of focus, they nevertheless made it clear that life in America would never be the same again. That day and for some time afterwards, we were going through the motions. T h e country and the world did change, in ways both expected and unexpected. We have witnessed — and continue to — the most base human behavior and are the worse for it. But a year after what will always be called "9/11," it is a relief to realize that what we call "the arts" still has the power to uplift and transform, to provide balm or catharsis. From a ballet to a stand-up comic, a majestic symphony to a street rap, art that moves us is still a very good thing. So the shows really will go on. Lots o f ' e m . This year, even as we devote part of the issue to post-9/11 analysis, our performing arts preview is bigger than ever. We recommend that you save this pull-out for reference throughout the season. We can't claim to have included absolutely everything, but we promise you'll find the selection more than entertaining.
RITES OF PASSAGE African cultures mark the transition from adolescence to adulthood in distinctive and deeply traditional ways, but Kuuyamba may represent the first time its rituals have been realized on stage. Metaphorically speaking, anyway Kuuyamba is a Mandingue word referring to a sojourn into the it sacred forest where the initiation transpires through music, dance and song. And it is the title of a new work by Le Ballet National du Senegal. Founded in I960, the year of Senegal's independence, by poet/national leader Leopold Senghor, the ballet company is the premiere proponent of the traditional dances of West Africa. Charged with preserving the cultural heritage of the country, its members — comprising the best male and female performers of the region — travel around Senegal to learn the moves and music of its 15 ethnic groups. To Western viewers in particular, the spectacle of all that rhythmic drumming, exuberant choreography, sensuality and brilliant color is a heady, exotic experience. Albany's Daily Gazette said it best: "Simply watching Le Ballet National du Senegal is exhausting. So kinetically explosive and musically vociferous, it's difficult not to absorb the shock waves that ripple through the theater." Beats teen angst. Le B a l l e t N a t i o n a l d u S e n e g a l .

Balancing Acts 6 AHk Calendar 2002-2003
HE TT!/XZ . ->IC IVIOK^E/ You'd think a fellow declared "the funniest man alive" ~~~• by Time Out New York — would be afraid to get out of bed in the morning. What if I'm not funny today? you can hear him worrying. But in the case of David Sedaris, he would probably worry out loud, and it would be hilarious. That is certainly the case with Me Talk Pretty One Day, which has been on The New York Times bestseller list for nearly two years. The book chronicles his social and foreign language faux pas after he moved to France. Readings from Me Talk comprised Sedaris last performance at the Flynn in 2000. Since then lies been compared to Mark Twain and has won the coveted Thurber Prize for American Humor. Not surprisingly, ticket sales are brisk already for his return next spring, according to Flynn Artistic Director Arnie Malina. Sedaris first appeared on the comic raclar with his commentaries on National Public Radios "Morning Edition" — their acerbic wit moved The Washington Post to note that "his tart voice never gets lost in N P R s Sargasso Sea of sincerity." Then came the books; his debut, SantalandDiaries, recounts Sedaris' strange-but-true experiences as a Macy's Christmas elf. It was followed by Holidays on lee, Barrel Fever and Naked. With his sister Amy, Sedaris has written several plays that have been produced in New York. Neurotic, self-deprecating, gay and definitely not politically correct, Sedaris is "very unconventional in every way/1 Malina notes. No kidding. David S e i l u r k Wednesday. A p r i l 2. $25-29.

CZECH MARKED How to explain Iva Bittovk? She has been compared to avant-garde performers Meredith Monk and Laurie Anderson, but mostly what they have in common is their utter uniqueness. Bittovk makes full use of her multi-octave vocal abilities, creating highly unfettered sounds alongside singing inspired by the traditional music of her tiny Moravian village. "She's as likely to whinny or growl in wordless syllables as to coo or belt out her poetic imagery," wrote one critic. She plays the violin with equal imagination and aplomb. Bittova's instrumental pyrotechnics — plucking, bowing, banging on the violin — and theatrical flair have even led critics to dub her a female-Czech-gypsy-Jewish version of Jimi Hendrix. She's a resourceful performer, pulling out everything she's got, including her feet, to achieve a riveting emotional intensity. Well-known as a musican and actress in her own country and around Europe, Bittov&, now 44, has released six solo recordings in the past decade as well as collaborative ones with others — including her percussionist husband, Pavel Fajt. Bittova's debut in the U.S. was her eponymously titled disc in 1998 on Nonesuch. Her passion is universal, transcending language and cultures. Iva Biltovft. Tuesday, N o v e m b e r 12.

wright, the multitalented son of actors Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee has been focusing on his music career the past few years. And for good reason: From his 1995 debut CD, Stomp Down Rider, to his latest, give in kind, Davis' brand of earthy, neo-traditional country blues his won raves from all quarters. Raised in Harlem and influenced by the likes of Bob Dylan and Taj Mahal, he's a veritable Muddy Waters for the 21st century, with some Leadbelly and Blind Willie McTell thrown in. Though his music has been used on soundtracks, ain't nothin' like the real thing. Davis' whiskey voice, naturally deft guitar work and wicked blues harp suggest a hardscrabble life on the Delta, but he's just a city boy with country on his mind. ( G u y Davis.

Picture this scene: a group of people gathered around a barrel fire for warmth in 1930s urban America. Sound like the start of a gritty film about down-and-out city living? Actually, it's a scene in a new ballet by Minnesota choregrapher James Sewell, and it's coming to the decidedly less urban Castleton, courtesy of the Crossroads Arts Council. The work, incongruously titled Lover!, is set to music by Richard Rodgers and is part of a centennial tribute to the composer next year. Lover! is the centerpiece of a performance that will also include other original works by the James Sewell Ballet. Merging classical ballet, modern dance and a vaudeville spirit, the eight-member troupe has been praised for its innovation, musicality, technical expertise and presentation. Sewell is also known for taking risks, such as setting a work about the reminiscences of a caregiver for a dying spouse to Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings. Now 12 years old and based in Minneapolis, the company spent its first three years in New York, and that is where Sewell made a Vermont connection. Sally Rousse — now the ballet's principal dancer, artistic associate and Sewell's wife — is a native of Barre. Her family goes back more than a century, and siblings still live in the area. Rousse went to New York in 1982 and studied with David Howard and at the School of American Ballet. She worked with Ballet Chicago and the Royal Ballet of Flanders in Belgium before coming back to join Sewell — in dance and then marriage. Now that's a love story. JameH S e w e l l Ballet.

WORLD CLASS The superlatives flow like a river in descriptions of The Antonio Calogero Ensemble. Each of its four members — Italian guitar master Calogero, multi-instrumentalist Paul McCandless, bassist Michael Manring and percussionist Brian Rice — is a peerless musician with more credits than a boatload of Ph.D.'s. The academic comparisons stop there, though; together the foursome creates transcendent, jazzy world music that is said to embody the spirit of the Mediterranean. Calogero visited Burlington last year as part of the Lane Series' International Guitar Night. A master of both nylon and steel strings, he's a classical-guitar star in Europe and a rising one in the U.S. His passionate, articulate playing reflects folk, jazz and worldmusic influences. Its an eclectic background that suits McCandless, a pioneer of contemporary instrumental playing and composing that has informed the original Paul Winter Consort and the innovative quartet Oregon. McCandless specializes in a variety of double-reed instruments, along with something called an electronic wind controller. And then there's the rhythm section: Considered a "master of the fretless bass without rival" by Italy's Guitar Club magazine, Manring is a Windham Hill staple known for his unusual tunings and extraordinary lyricism. Rice is a freelance percussionist who has worked with groups from the Balafon Marimba Ensemble to Wake the Dead, and appeared on many recordings. A trained ethnomusicologist, Rice literally has his fingers on the world's pulse. T h e A n t o n i o C a l o g e r o Ensemble. Friday, N o v e m b e r 15.

And to think Ravi Shankar almost became a professional dancer. If he had not switched gears to study the sitar with the great Allauddin Khan, a post-war generation would not have heard his mesmerizing concerts at the Monterey Festival, Woodstock or the Concert for Bangladesh. The exotic sounds and unusual time signatures of Indian music were warmly embraced in that trippy, psychedelic era of the late '60s, and began to tune Western ears to the music of other cultures. Indeed, George Harrison — a fan, friend and collaborator — described Shankar as the "godfather of world music." Now 82, Shankar still actively plays and composes music, as he has for nearly seven decades. But in recent years, India's musical ambassador has had an heir apparent. Make that heiress. His own daughter, Anoushka Shankar, is just 21 but has already been internationally acclaimed for her skill at both the sitar and classical piano. She continues to accompany her father but is also stepping out of his shadow with shows and recordings of her own. Anoushka is no rebel, however — while she's finding her own way, and sound, she has literally learned the difficult, 2000-yearold art form at her father's knee. She acknowledges their close relationship in a pictorial biography of Ravi published recently, Bapi: Love of My Life. Meanwhile, BBC East turned the spotlight on the daughter with a documentary of her European tour, entitled Anoushka Shankar: Sitar Trek, which was aired in the U.K. last month. The Queen of England once granted Ravi Shankar an honorary knighthood; four years ago, at the age of 18, his daughter received a House of Commons Shield from the British Parliament — the youngest person, and sole female, to ever receive the honor. That's high praise; but so was the response to her performance — with two tabla players — at Carnegie Hall last year. Recorded live, that concert presages her appearance at the Flynn in November, and demonstrates why the sitar will survive into the 21st century. That, and fans like Madonna. AnoiDtltlia Shankar.

New York performance artist-singer Rinde Eckert likes playing the idiot. As in village idiot — the peculiar loner at the fringes of society whose innocent remarks can seem at times like insight, even wisdom. His one-man show, An Idiot Divine, is not necessarily out to make us humans look collectively foolish, but it certainly establishes Eckert himself as singularly talented and, yes, insightful. Bald-headed, barefooted and dressed in garb suggesting a pilgrimage, Eckert surrounds himself on a minimalist stage with a variety of instruments, all of which he plays. In addition, he talks some, sings — with a trained operatic tenor that slides easily into a baritone or upward into angelic falsetto — and makes a wild array of other sounds. Distinctions between human and instrumental ones are almost nonexistent. As one New York Times critic puts it, "The line between man and music curves, squiggles, blurs and dissolves in An Idiot Divine. " There is movement as well — the latter accomplished with remarkable grace for such a bearish man. You cannot call this a typical theater piece, but it is dramatic, and humorous. Audiences who watched Eckert s one-man opera Ravenshead last year at the Flynn will be able to grasp how his clown/savant could be anything but stupid.

4 Friday MUSIC ICP ORCHESTRA: The Dutch piano-percussion duo breaks musi-
HONKYTONK QUINTET The grandfather of modern country music once sang "Nobody's Lonesome for Me," but a "Tribute to Hank Williams" coming to the Barre Opera House in March will prove him wrong. Contemporary folk duos Robin & Linda Williams and Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer, along with Telecaster master Bill Kirchen, apparently decided the antidote to missing the man was to remake his music. A prolific songwriter with a distinctive, plaintive voice, Hank Williams left plenty of material to choose from, including "Mind Your Own Business," "Lovesick Blues," "Jambalaya" and "Why Don't You Love Me." One can only imagine how many more hits he would have written had Williams not died so young — at age 29 in 1953. The performers delivering this nostalgic tribute are no slouches, either. The Virginia-based husband-and-wife folkies Robin and Linda Williams have been playing together for three decades. In addition to their tireless coffeehouse and concert hall appearances, they've infiltrated the living rooms of America via numerous gigs on "A Prairie Home Companion." Their coziness with host Garrison Keillor, in fact, led to the formation of a collaborative act with him, called The Hopeful Gospel Quartet. Keillor also produced the Williams' latest recording, Visions of Love, which hugged the Americana charts for months. Cathy Fink and Marcy Marxner, from Montreal and Michigan, respectively, became a duo in 1984, and have made music for children and adults ever since. Superb harmonies and multi-instrumental chops have earned the women a reputation for versatility — they once performed both country music and rope twirling for the Queen of Thailand. Fink is a banjo virtuoso and has an uncanny ability to get audiences to yodel along with her — a useful skill in the Hank Williams oeuvre. Speaking of guitar work, fans of American roots music would surely recognize Bill Kirchens Tele from one riff alone — on "Hot Rod Lincoln," a Top 10 hit in 1972 by Commander Cody & His Lost Planet Airmen. For nearly a decade Commander Cody seamlessly mixed up rock, boogie, country, r&b and Western swing in a repertoire that would inspire future neo-rockabilly cats. Now based in Washington, D.C., Kirchen continually mows down the competition in roots-rock/country contests with his latest unit, Too Much Fun. Hank may be a "long gone daddy," but he would surely appreciate this loving lineup.

MYSTERY TOUR Hashirigaki is a Japanese word meaning "to hurry," or "to fluidly, to sketch." But a musical theater work by that name is truly multicultural: Though it includes Japanese folk music performed on a shamisen and features the Japanese storyteller-musician Yumiko Tanaka, the composer is noted German dramatist and poet Heiner Goebbels; the other two female performers are Canadian pianist Marie Goyette and Swedish dancersinger Charlotte Engelkes. texts arcbased on Gertrude Stein's inscrutable book The Making of Americans, and Beach Boy Brian Wilsons Pet Sounds is fused with the otherworldly good vibrations of the theramin. Oh, and Hashirigaki is being staged by a Swiss company, the Th^&tre Vidy-Lausanne. Talk about eclectic. In the 90-minute work, which has its North American premiere at the Hopkins Center this month, Goebbels creates short scenes that use breathtaking lighting, magical staging and a mind-altering soundscape to explore the murky spaces between theater, concert, dance, reading and performance art. The sequences vary in style from pop to avant-garde. Nonsensical recitations from Steins book are filled with music and rhythm. When the women argue about the meaning of the work's title, it becomes a mischievous take on the theme of simultaneous activity — what we now call multi-tasking. If this all sounds puzzling, that's the idea, sort of. Goebbels has no intention of spelling things out for his audiences. Instead, he suggests, "approach Hashirigaki with open minds. Have open eyes and ears and not think you are going to know how it is going to end." A lesson, perhaps, for real life. HumIiiriguhi, TWalre Vidy-Lauftnnne, compoHed and directed by Heiner Goebbels.

Down? Assessing the impact of 3/11 on the performing arts in Vermont
BY PAULA ROUTLY
A
n appropriate headline for last year's performing arts preview might have been "Curtains." As we were putting the finishing touches on the issue — which spotlights the upcoming entertainment season — three terrorist-controlled planes stole the show with an unprecedented act of U.S.-focused aggression. We were glued to the national news all day, but there was no getting around our own 7 o'clock deadline. Since we were faced with such a heinous example of premeditated evil, celebrating the creativity of the human spirit seemed frivolous, even disrespectful. There was no way, in that moment, to see what role the arts would play — if any — in the wake of the attacks. We went ahead with our performing arts theme as planned. On Tuesday, people were jumping out of burning buildings in Manhattan. On Wednesday, the cover of Seven Days captured a dancer in mid-leap. Embarrassing as it was from a news standpoint, our coverage — like the editorial agonizing behind it — was indicative of a more general performance anxiety among area arts presenters, performers and audiences. Anyone with gigs, tickets or artist contracts in hand after 9/11 was wondering if culture would be counted among the day's casualties. A year later, we can report that the season survived, despite Youssou N'Dour's decision to bag his entire U.S. tour because, as a Muslim, he
we shouldn't do the show," says Brooke Wetzel of Northern Stage, based at the Briggs Opera House in White River Junction. "The other half of the cast said, 'It's our job to do a comedy now.' Once they had a chance to work through the emotions, they agreed to continue the production. People took the time to thank us for doing a show that could bring laughter back. It ended up being one of our strongest sellers ever." Things played out a little differently at Burlington's Vermont Stage Company. At the end of September, the company put out a press release announcing it was canceling a production of Liaisons Dangereuses in order to present the more wholesome New England drama Our Town. Dissing Dangereuses, Artistic Director Mark Nash explained, "Its themes of cynicism about human nature and deceitful sexual manipulations suddenly seemed ill-fitted to this difficult time we are all experiencing." Twelve months later, he recalls, "We wanted some good comfort-food theater. We figured we'd bring in a much-beloved favorite that is placed locally, a heart-warming message of family and community." Narrated by public-radio commentator Willem Lange, the Thornton Wilder classic sold out "101 percent," according to Nash. "We had to squeeze seats in."
S
witching shows at the last minute is not really an option for large presenters like the Flynn Center, the Lane Series and the Hopkins Center. Their artistic directors tend to book events years in advance. But some of the previously scheduled performers altered their programs to acknowledge the tragedy. At the Flynn, the Trisha Brown Dance Company added a solo from Claudio Monteverdi's opera L'Orfeo "to honor the many thousands of people lost or injured in the attack on the World Trade Center." The Vermont Symphony altered its fall "Made in Vermont" tour. At the start of every concert, conductor Jaime Laredo acknowledged the victims of 9/11 with a solo rendition of Bach's "Air on a G String." "It also served the purpose of memorializing Isaac Stern," Alan Jordan says of the late violinist. "There was a long discussion as to what we should do about 9/11. We decided on a short piece, and asked that the audience not applaud afterward. Jaime came on stage and played. It was very moving." Jordan echoes a number of presenters when he notes the terrorist attacks "added further relevance to some of the things we did last year" the Brahms Requiem, for example, which the

New York Philharmonic played at Lincoln Center six days after the terrorist attacks. The Vermont Symphony Orchestra was already scheduled to perform it in March at the Flynn, and four months later in Manchester. Similarly, the Vermont Youth Orchestra had already decided on a patriotic theme for its May concert, which included a newly commissioned piece of music that ended up addressing 9/11 directly. The Vermont Contemporary Music Ensemble performed Stravinsky's "Histoire du Soldat" in a November "Veterans Day Tribute" that also included the eerily appropriate "Ricordanza," by George Rochberg. "Everything was the same, but people watched it differently," Lawrence says of post9/11 selections at the Hop. A staged version of the radio show "War of the Worlds" definitely struck a nerve in early October. "It ends with someone saying, 'I'm standing on the top of the tallest building in New York. I can see the poison gas coming. Hello? Is there anybody still on the air?'" Lawrence explains. "It was really scary. Thank God we'd scheduled post-performance discussions. "What people will experience because of 9/11, and have for the past year, is a heightened awareness of layers of meaning of what it is they are seeing and feeling," she suggests. In case they don't, though, the VCME is putting out a recording that will memorialize the historic moment. Days after 9/11, clarinetist Steve Klimowski started rounding up composers who were willing to write origJ inal works — for no money — in response to the attacks for a February concert he ended up calling "Catharsis." What he got gratis from Vermont composers David Gunn, Don Jamison, Allen Shawn, Thomas Read, Erik ^ Nielsen and Troy Peters is powerful listening. Lots of cel~f los and baritone clarinets set a mournfiil tone overall. But the composers also incorporated all sorts of aural details, including, in one piece, radio sound bites from the day of the attacks. Ace sound engineer Chuck Eller volunteered his time to record and master the respective compositions. "Just like people think in words and colors, I think in musical sonorities," says Troy Peters, who also conducts the Vermont Youth Orchestra. He built his piece around a simple Persian poem that speaks to the despair of a "nest destroyed." Peters says the experience gave him a creative outlet for his grief and "sense of desolation." In the end, "Catharsis" is a "Guernica" for the ears. "I thought, 'This is what music is supposed to be doing,'" Klimowski says of the project. "The audience was right with us."
"Everything was the same, but people watched it differently." r — Margaret Lawrence, Hopkins Center programming director didn't feel safe traveling in America. Hopkins Center Programming Director Margaret Lawrence salvaged his show by substituting Beninoise songstress Angelique Kidjo. The Flynn pulled the same switcheroo in Burlington. Generally speaking, it's been harder to get international performers into the country since the attacks on America — a logistical challenge that has already limited the availability of African artists. The Lane Series lost a folk act scheduled for October, at least in part as a result of visa delays. The Aka Pygmies of Centrafrique were two weeks late hooking up with a dance company in San Francisco, which meant a whole lot less rehearsal time for a cross-cultural collaboration — "The People of the Forest"— at the Flynn. , Once a pulse was detected in the post-9/11 performing arts world, however, "There was tremendous concern in the arts community that nothing inappropriate be presented," according to Jane Ambrose of the Lane Series. "Lots of organizers cancelled the beginning of their seasons. People around the country were looking for things that had to do not with war, but with peace and reconciliation." Noises Off — a comedy by Michael Frayn — didn't exactly fit the bill. "Half the cast said

n the months following the terrorist attacks, people found unexpected solace in Vermont's concert halls, opera houses and performing arts centers — as places to gather and heal. "We genuinely experienced the comfort that the theater gave to people," says Arnie Malina, artistic director of the Flynn Center. "That also felt very important — that people came. That this was something they cherished." For the most part, that appreciation translated into dollars. Lane Series ticket sales were
September
down in October, but the organization managed to meet its fundraising goals. The Flynn saw a dip in membership that has since corrected itself. Individual donations to the VCME tripled last year. Annual giving also increased for Vermont Stage and the Vermont Youth Orchestra. "What could make you feel better than a bunch of young people on stage pulling together to make this really great music?" posits Youth Orchestra Executive Director Caroline Whiddon. "I needed those first concerts so much. I remember being teary-eyed. I think our donors felt that way, too." More upsetting to Vermont presenters these days is the current state of the economy, and its potential negative effect on endowments, foundations, corporate philanthropy and donors who make contributions in the form of stock. Even the wealthy Hopkins Center is preparing for the inevitable belt tightening. Ultimately, that may have more of an impact on what we experience in local theaters than the specter of Osama bin Laden. Malina concedes, "We are balancing our risks more carefully." That means that for every cutting-edge artist like Paul Drescher and Eric Bass, there are easier sells to offset them, like three sold-out shows of
Rent. Are there any programs that intentionally reference 9/11 in the current lineup of performing arts events in Vermont? Presenters say no, but their seasons suggest otherwise. Vermont Stage is serving up more "comfort food," as Nash puts it, in the form of another "large-cast Americana feel-good play." He says choosing To Kill a Mockingbird was "a very conscious choice to pick up on the Our Town vibe." The run will be extended from two weeks to three. Northern Stage was going for an "emotional feeling" when it chose dramas that show characters persevering against all odds. The inspiration for that was "not just 9/11," says Wetzel. "It was the Catholic Church crisis. It's the stock market. It's Enron. There's a series of experiences that I think really shook a lot of people's lives... In other years, we have had to be the force pushing the envelope. Maybe that's not this year." Incidentally, Northern Stage canceled a production of Agnes of God last year because of the pedophile priest scandal. Troy Peters was looking for fun works to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Vermont Youth Orchestra — the fall concert includes "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" and a suite of music from the Harry Potter film. But his spring concert looks at Romanticism in music. One of the selections is Samuel Barbers "Adagio for Strings, Op. 11," which Peters describes as a "great piece about anything tragic." The Vermont Symphony is performing Mahler's "Resurrection" symphony in January, but Jordan insists it won't be marketed as a tribute piece. "It will certainly evoke emotions," he promises, similar to ones that may be stirred during the symphony's October performance of Beethoven's "Eroica" symphony. Ultimately, it will take time, and distance, to determine whether 9/11 has a long-term transformative effect on the arts in America — the way the scourge of AIDS or the Vietnam War did. "A year from now we'll know more about how 9/11 affected our work than we can possibly know now," Wetzel suggests. Beyond that, what form it takes is up to the people who translate our grief into the steps, stories and symphonies that outlast the news of the day. ©

SD: Do you think the United States actually will attack Iraq? JH: A month ago, it seemed very likely to happen. Dubya was rushing pell-mell to restore his dad's honor by getting rid of Saddam once and for all. But now the public is increasingly asking some fundamental questions about how smart an invasion really would be. Again, it's not happening through the Democrats in Congress but through the leadership of some very conservative Republicans — both in Congress and some of the gang that was around Bush, Senior Dick Armey and Brent Scowcroft — who would've thought it?

SD: Do you have an American flag sticker on your car? JH: I do. We made a big mistake during the Vietnam War protests by misunderstanding people's attachment to emblems of patriotism. We must not let the flag be misused again by the political opportunists and the corporatists. At all our Rolling Thunder events, we make sure the stars and stripes are flying.

SD: You said in one of your radio spots last year that progressives must not let the American flag and other emblems of patriotism be usurped by the right. To quote your words last October, "I've been waving the flag all over the place because it stands for something special, historic, important and uniting. Ours is the flag of the pamphleteers and Sons of Liberty, the abolitionists and suffragists, Populists and Wobblies, Mother Jones and Joe Hill, Cesar Chavez and Martin Luther King Jr. — freedomfighters all." You feel the same now? JH: The American flag should never be surrendered to the warmongered, the xenophobes, the greedheads. If it stands for anything in America, it stands for our most basic values of freedom, justice and democracy. O f course that's v/hat we should be standing up for — now and always.

— Dana Yeaton, playwright and professor Arabic music. Who do we have for musicians: "I know someone who could come in and train us in Arabic singing," offers one young woman. "I want to belly dance," another blurts out. The group has just finished acting out Prince with Three Fates, a student-created story about the struggle between.an Egyptian child and his adoptive parents. Besides improvising movements to accompany the drama, the students are helping to determine which actors and stories will be included in their company's upcoming season. Addison Repertory Theatre — A.R.T. — is an alternative program designed to prepare
rise of an increasingly vital theater scene of its own. In addition to A.R.T. and the long-standing theater program up the hill at Middlebury College, the town supports not one but two independent acting companies. In this burg of 8000, the allure of the limelight seems to be infectious. "The virus of Middlebury theater is taking over," says resident playwright Dana Yeaton, who penned Mad River Rising and adapted Midwives for stage. He also founded A.R.T. "In Middlebury, more theater breeds more theater. We aren't hurting each other by having a lot of it going on." Created in 1994 by a group of area artists, writers and educa-
a popular four-show season of student work that, along with various grants and a parent foundation, helps the comprehensive program pay for itself. Students aren't the only ones using the high-ceilinged 90-seat black-box performance space, a former woodworking shop that was transformed by Small and his tech students in 1997. The oldest and most resourceful band of actors in Addison County — the Middlebury Community Players — inaugurated the space that year and has since put on several of its smaller productions there. Prior to that, the group did its itinerant.theater thing in barns, old-folks homes, a court-

house building and the Cornwall grange. Formed in 1959, the Middlebury Community Players grew out of a reading group of townspeople and members of the Middlebury College community who wanted to act out the material. The still very active group of roughly 400 members includes occasional students and professors from Middlebury College. A high school student sits on its board of directors. Typically, the Players put on a musical in the spring and a comedy or drama in the fall —last year they did Steel Magnolias and Chicago. Occasionally, they'll squeeze in a third production of one-act plays. "We do family-oriented things, but we also do a little more experimental and some edgy things," explains Players President Elinor Friml. The troupe is still pinning down dates for its fall production, a premier of a new play written by Pulitzer Prize-winning Rutland Herald editor David Moats, a Middlebury resident who is a past president of the group. The comedy, entitled A Trip to the Moon, will most likely run in mid-November at the A.R.T. studio theater. "Our biggest problem, and one that's been going on for the past $0 years, is that we really don't have a home," says Player Joann Langrock. "We're really looking forward to the completion of the renovations and the restoration of the Town Hall
Theater, so that we can make that our home." Enter Doug Anderson — the lanky, bespectacled "Player" from East Middlebury who is overseeing the transformation of the former Knights of Columbus hall into a full-fledged cultural center. It's still unheated and in a state of disrepair, but it recently hosted a busy summer season there, drawing appreciative audiences for Chicago and an evening of Broadway show tunes and musical comedy by the Burling-tonbased quartet Encore. The Middlebury Actors Workshop also had a good run there. Though she had some reservations in the beginning — namely the battalion of bats in the belfry and structural concerns — Actors Workshop founder Melissa Lourie said the group is looking forward to more at the renovated Town Hall Theater. "It's a wonderful, wonderful space," says Lourie, who also started the still-successful Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival in New York. The group, which Lourie convened two years ago, started with six core members: Jeanne Rogow, a screenwriter and actress who is currently editing a 30minute film called Town Meeting; Harry McEnerny, a theater prof at Castleton Stage College; Stephen O'Dwyer, a professional actor and physical therapist who lives in Shelburne; Steve Small, the director of the A.R.T. program; and his wife, Shannon Bohler-Small, who teaches dance

says Lourie. "There's a lot of talented people around, partly because of the college, and partly just because it's a nice place to be. I think that people who are here, like Doug, they want to do something. So, I figure, if that isn't here already, then I'm going to try to make it happen." Most recently, the Middlebury Actors Workshop

Recent graduates have recently been written up in The New York Times for new theater companies they started in New York City

A scene from Tony Kushner's The Illusion, coming to Middlebury College November 21-23. drew standing-room-only audiences for three nights of Misunderstandings, Maelstroms and Monkeys — an evening of one-acts about relationships that showcased works by contemporary playwrights, including several by David Ives. Yeaton's assessment: "They were just plain good." Yeaton also teaches at Middlebury College, which hosts "one of the best theater programs among small, liberal arts colleges
and Washington, D.C., for becoming the youngest playwright ever produced at the prestigious Williamstown Festival, and for writing and appearing in various Hollywood productions.

"We've increasingly had stronger and stronger productions," he says, noting generous support from the colleges administration has helped the program grow at a rapid pace. Today, Middlebury boasts a sizable stable of accomplished faculty and staff, guest residen-

following letter to the editor from Sweetser. "You are doing a remarkable job!" she wrote. "My Catholic guilt got the best of me. Enclosed is my paid subscription for this year... and last year... and the year before. Keep up the incredible work." Just when we were on the verge of giving up our search for a Republican to stand up for Vermont's political tradition, Skip Vallee returned our call. Gasoline Vallee is Vermont's direct connection to the Republican National Committee. We asked him for his take on Dwinell's sex, lies and sleaze reporting. Vallee didn't hesitate for a millisecond. "It doesn't belong in Vermont. I truly believe it," said Vallee. Too bad, Jim Douglas, Joe Acinapura and WGOP, er, sorry, WCAX don't see it that way. Does anyone doubt that if Mr. Dwinell were a Democrat cheerleader instead of a Republican one, they'd all be singing a very different tune?

Since Seven Days went to press Tuesday evening before the votes were counted, we don't know if Democrat Ed Flanagan lost his primary contest for treasurer with jeb Spaulding. Fast Eddie certainly deserved to lose. Mr. Flanagan surprised a lot of folks and former supporters with a slick, negative, fast-buck campaign. It appeared a desperate effort by Mr. Flanagan to maintain a presence on Vermont's political stage by any means necessary. We vividly recall Mr. Flanagan was a veritable newcomer to Vermont in 1988 when he jumped into the race for attorney general. He was definitely a "man with a plan." Yours truly will never forget Fast Eddie's campaign kick-off at Burlington's City Hall that year. Former Gov. Phil Hoff introduced him with the line, "I haven't met him yet, but he has a very impressive resume." Flanagan grew up on Capitol Hill where his Vermont-born dad worked. You could see in his Hollywood eyes that Ed wanted to return to Washington one day as a big shot. The incumbent AG, Republican Jeff Amestoy, was widely popular. And many folks got a bad taste that fall from Fast Eddie's unbelievable, over-the-top attacks on Amestoy. In the end, a lot of Democrats voted for the Republican and Flanagan was trounced by a 2-1 margin. Amestoy, by the way, won the following four races for AG without Democratic Party opposition. In 1997, Gov. Dean appointed him chief justice of the Vermont Supreme Court. After the 1988 race, Flanagan decided to settle in. A graduate of Harvard Law School with experience on Wall Street, Flanagan joined Hoff's Main Street law firm. Four years later, he resurfaced as a candidate for the unheralded job of state auditor. Flanagan ran
a determined campaign and won. He quickly butted heads with Gov. Dean and became a darling of the left wing. Along the way he came out as a gay man. And he has been nationally recognized as such, once holding the title of the only "openly gay statewide elected official in America." In Vermont, however, there's no evidence Ed's sexual preference ever mattered. He was easily reelected three times. After four terms as auditor, Fast Eddie finally reached for the big prize — a U.S. Senate seat. He squeaked by State Sen. Jan B a c k u s in the 2000 Democratic primary, but, once again, he soured a lot of Democrats with his negativity. That November he was crushed by Republican U.S. Sen. Jim Jeffords, who won by a landslide. A two-time loser now, Flanagan sees his dream is fading. His run for state treasurer has had an air of desperation about it. Fast Eddie's spent more buckaroos in the primary than any race for treasurer has ever seen, and most of it has come out of his own rather deep pockets. Once again, Flanagan is making many Democrats cringe. The two best signs of that come from the current state auditor Elizabeth Ready and the legendary trailblazer of the Vermont Democratic Party, former Gov. Phil Hoff. If Chainsaw had been on the Titanic, she'd have been in the first lifeboat. Ms. Ready has great instincts and knows when a ship is sinking. Last week, Chainsaw Liz, a longtime buddy of Flan-agan's, broke ranks and publicly came out for Mr. Spaulding. Gov. Hoff may have only been familiar with Flanagan's resume back in 1988, but in the 14 years since, Prince Philip has had the opportunity to get to know him better. Much better. Fast Eddie still rents space at Phil's law office, but he's no longer connected to the firm professionally. And in this election, Phil Hoff is an enthusiastic supporter of Ed's opponent, Jeb Spaulding. Hoff's even doing radio spots for Jeb. What does that tell ya? Should Flanagan pull a primary victory out of the hat courtesy of his big bucks and sketchy strategy, many Democrats will cringe. One particular Vermonter, however, will be positively thrilled — John Labarge of Grand Isle. Labarge is the straight-arrow Republican candidate for treasurer, the kind of guy moderate Democrats might learn to like. D e a n W a t c h 2 0 0 4 — Campaign workers have started moving in at the Dean for President H Q in downtown Burlington. Kate O'Connor and a troop of twentysomethings were on duty Monday when we stopped by. At the moment they're high on energy and low on furniture, but that will soon change. What caused a double-take was the sign identifying the other new tenant across the hall. Would you believe it's the U.S. Secret Service? Could be an omen, eh? ®

Bruce Hornsby may be best
known as the king of rootsy piano-pop, but he has always welcomed innovation. Big Swing Face, the Virginia-based artist's latest record, lays the technology on heavy, adding loops and samples to the mix. More guitar-based than his previous work, the new tunes are ready to rock, courtesy of guest axe star Steve Kimock. Hornsby and his band come to the Flynn Center this Friday.

STEVEN BERNSTEIN, DIASPORA BLUES (Tzadik, CD) — Taking a break from the sleaze-jazz renegades Sex Mob, Steven Bernstein created a solo project, Diaspora Blues, on which the trumpeter turns his attention to Jewish prayer songs. Aided by legendary jazzman Sam Rivers and his group, Bernstein attempts to fuse cantorial Jewish compositions with freejazz improvisation. Reached via phone at his Nyack, New York, home, Bernstein commented that, while "no one ever had tried to do jazz-cantorial music before," he became fascinated by the idea of linking the two forms of composition. "If I was going to follow through [with the idea], I needed a believable record. Sam and his band made it real," Bernstein added. After signing on Rivers' bassist Doug Matthews and drummer Anthony Cole to help get his ideas onto tape, the trio began to record the album in Orlando, Florida. Rivers, at first asked by a sheepish Bernstein to contribute to only two tracks, quickly offered to play on the entire album.

As a whole, Diaspora Blues is a hypnotic, tightly wound collection of distinctively Jewish free-jazz. Relying mainly on the works of 20th-century cantor Moshe Koussevitsky, the material ranges from gorgeously solemn melodic passages to cacophonic horn blasts. Intended to be an actual, historical record of the groups playing, the albums 11 tracks were recorded live, often in no more than two takes. "There were no rehearsals," explained Bernstein. "I had the idea for the record and it all came together very organically." Characterized by the dual punch of Rivers' saxophone and Bernstein's trumpet, Diaspora Blues offers a deep, cryptic journey through tracks marked by springloaded percussion and exuberant melodies. The I3-minute centerpiece, Koussevitsky's "Misratze B'Rachamim," is an excellent overview of the album. Fluctuating between the cleansing, smooth horns of Bernstein and Rivers and a subtle percussive rumble, the tune ebbs into a tantalizing rush of slide trumpet and sax, then once again subsides. The overall effect is one. both uplifting and contemplative, historically rich and entirely modern. Two traditional Jewish prayer songs and three of Bernstein's "commentary" pieces pepper the disc with additional music that works well thematically with Koussevitsky's works. Diaspora Blues is a deep and emotional record, if one perhaps not easily ingested by some fans of the groove-based Sex Mob.
However, they can get a dose of the real thing when Bernstein brings Sex Mob to Club Metronome this Friday. Vorcza open with their own homegrown funkjazz. If you're looking for some meditative, inspiring tunes after the show, give Diaspora Blues a spin. — Ethan Covey
LAURIE GELTMAN, MOTION PICTURES (PBP, CD) — Although it hasn't made me cry, Laurie Geltman's new album, Motion Pictures, has enough swoon, craft and lyrical depth to remind me how much I enjoy Aimee Mann
records. Motion Pictures is an acoustic-guitar-based, full-band project, recorded live on a Tascam DA88 at Club Passim in Cambridge, Mass. It sounds so good that the only giveaway is the applause between songs. I've listened to it six times so far and I'm not tired of it. I could recommend Motion Pictures solely on the basis of Geltman's cover of one of my alltime favorite songs by the Stair

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 20 $15 ADVANCE $15 DAY OF SHOW 9 PC INTERNATIONAL DANCE & DRUM ENSEMBLE
Steps, "Ooh Child." Geltman's delivery is heartfelt, with acoustic strumming and mandolin, and it doesn't lose the soul of the original. This and her other cover choice, Neil Youngs "Motion Pictures," suggests Geltman loves good songs and knows what they sound like. What's better is that her original material shines just as brightly. Their lyrical subtlety rewards you for listening; sometimes a shift from what you expect the words are going to be is the best gift a songwriter can give. Thank you, Laurie Geltman. Thank you for moving from "that" to "this" in "Never Happen Here." I love having my brain stimulated by the phrase, "things like this never happen here." I love it when you say, "Happy doesn't pay attention' instead of "the bills" in "Housewife." I love the phrase, "I have held you at bay." And, man, I just like typing the phrase, "I feel like we're sinking into comfortable like your favorite chair." Laurie Geltman writes great songs and everybody in Boston already knows it. Her One Night Stand Band is excellent and reserved and complementary to every song. The easiest comparison here would be to The Indigo Girls or an acoustic Melissa Etheridge. But you should see her show — at the Burlington Coffeehouse this Saturday — and see for yourself. If you can't make that one, Motion Pictures is an enhanced CD with the entire show on video, along with a short video documentary. — Colin Clary

T h e summers most pleasant surprise, Gary Winicks coming-ofage comedy is at once an irresistible mix of Rushmore, Spanking the Monkey and The Graduate while also being utterly unique. Shot in New York's photogenic Upper West Side, Tadpole stars Aaron Stanford as a courtly and precocious prep schooler who returns home for Thanksgiving determined to confess his feelings to the woman he loves. T h e catch? She's the 15-year-old's stepmother. Sigourney Weaver's a fortyish medical researcher who senses something is missing from her life of culture and privilege. John Ritter is dead-on as Stanford's dad, a self-possessed professor of history who can't quite figure out when things started going wrong in marriage number two. Almost as soon as the boy walks through the family's front door, Weaver's best friend, a mischievous pleasure-seeker played luminously by Bebe Neuwirth, picks up his ardor on her radar. It isn't long before she picks up the boy as well. T h e lad ducks into a neighborhood watering hole to do a little deep thinking his first night home and, via an amusing series of events, wakes up the following morning in Neuwirth's bed. T h e balance of the lamentably short story is devoted to Stanford's desperate struggle to keep her m u m so as not to blow it with mom. I can't recall the last time I felt a film ended too soon. Winick packs an awful lot into its 78 minutes. His direction is agile, inventive and artful but never steps over the line into artiness. T h e script by Heather McGowan and Niels Mueller is a marvel of precision, insight and disarming wit. Tadpole has more great lines per minute than any picture I've seen this season. (After his wallet is stolen by a sultry hustler he meets at the bar, for example, Neuwirth asks, "Were you mugged?" To which Stanford answers, "Yes, but she was very pleasant about it.") The only character in the film who continues to call the young man by his boyhood nickname, the buildings doorman, is a loopy, low-key creation, an inscrutable doofus-philosopher in Drew Carey specs. W h e n the confused teen comes to him for advice in a m o m e n t of crisis, the guy's answer gleans new meaning from the Bob Marley line, "No woman, no cry." Top-drawer performances all around, too. Weaver brings a weight and depth to her role that's surprising given her modest screen time. Benjamin Braddock would've dumped Katharine Ross in a New York minute for Neuwirth's Mrs. Robinson, and Stanford achieves the nearly unthinkable: H e plays a French-speaking, Voltaire-quoting little know-it-all and manages to make the kid likable. T h e only downside? You're likely to miss out on all the fun if you don't move fast. Theaters aren't likely to wait around while word of mouth builds the following this Sundance award-winner deserves. If youre in search of the pithy, the piquant and the just plain funny, look no further. Tadpole has a motherlode. ®

O U S T ALL I N C U M B E N T S Hopefully this November, voters will remember in November and vote in people who will represent the people of Vermont and keep their promises. That means a total "clean sweep" from top to bottom should happen and start fresh with new faces. The Republicans promised to fix Act 60 so our property taxes would finally be lowered. Most homeowners' taxes have gone way up. The cigarette tax increase has nothing to do with stopping young people from smoking and everything to do with greed and a
hunger for more State funds. There currently isn't a $39 million deficit for the State — there is a $39 million over-spending gaPIf Howard Dean wants to run for president, that's fine, but he should do it on his own time and money — not the taxpayers'. It's obvious that the current batch of elected representatives in Montpelier cannot keep their words to fix Act 60, 250 and a host of other state problems, and help the taxpayers and businesses. They have consistently run way past the adjournment time -— spending even more money. It's time for a total change. Vote in only new candidates. — Dan Porter Underhill SEVEN DAYS wants your rants and raves, in 2 5 0 words or less. Letters must respond to content in SEVEN DAYS.

Dear Cecil, I'm sure I remember hearing from a reliable source, i.e., a science program, that certain species of trees (or shrubs) will spontaneously combust in order to ensure the survival of the species. I'm being mercilessly teased about this, so I'd appreciate any information you can dig up. — Donna Rose Washington, D.C. No offense, Donna, but this is a pretty dull way of putting it. A more interesting way is: Could the biblical burning bush that spoke to Moses have been a spontaneously combusting desert shrub? Answer: Maybe. Some claim there's a plant in desert regions that every so often bursts into flame for no apparent reason. And your idea of plant-based excitement was watching the leaves turn colors! Then again, I,suppose if you were a desert homeowner observing the spectacle of random ignition on the lawn some night, you might also think: Cheezit, couldn't I just have crabgrass?
Springsteen once wrote a song about this, I think.) T h e fire has to be of external origin, though — the pines don't torch themselves. It's possible some other plants eliminate the middleman. T h e leading candidate is Dictamnus albus, a flowering shrub that grows to a height of about two feet. Native to a wide swath of Europe and Asia, including Israel, it's commonly called "fraxinella," "dittany" and, more pertinently for our story, "gas plant" and "burning bush." O n warm days D. albus exudes vapor that readily ignites if you hold a match to it, and some say it ignites all by itself if the sun is hot enough. But — here's where things start to get biblical — the vapor burns so quickly that it doesn't consume or even damage the plant. This naturally brings to mind Exodus 3:2: "And the angel of the Lord appeared unto [Moses] in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush: and he looked, and, behold, the bush burned with fire, and the bush was not consumed."
But first the question you asked, as opposed to the one I feel like answering. T h e science program you heard likely was speaking ofpyrophytes, plants that have adapted to fire in various ways. T h e cones of several species of pine, for example, are serotinous — that is, they open only when exposed to extremely high temperature, making fire an essential part of the reproductive process. (Bruce
So D. albus is Moses' burning bush, right? Many biblical commentators think so (or at least they think the bush was a spontaneously combusting plant). But I'm not staking my King James on it. Straight Dope research assistant Bibliophage has turned up an apparent case of spontaneous combustion involving a cactus (www. ananova.com/news/story/sm_56 7529.html), but nobody in a

position to speak authoritatively, e.g., a botanist in Israel, could confirm that such things happen on a regular basis. What's more, the seemingly miraculous biblical story is put in a somewhat Martha Stewart-ish light if we assume burning ornamentals are a commonplace feature of M o u n t Sinai life: "And behold, the angel of the Lord spoke unto Moses from a lovely spread of flaming fraxinella." All of which means we'd be jumping the gun to conclude that Dictamnus albus, or any other plant, spontaneously combusts in order to perpetuate the species.

Nev/ Age guru Paul Winter "felt a kinship" with Shelburne Farms the moment he set foot on the expansive estate in 1988. His concert there with his consort and a Russian ensemble was documented by Charles Kuralt for " O n the Road." Afterwards, the spiritual sax-man discovered the mighty Breeding Barn and decided he would one day perform ^ ^ there. Last year, he finally did. Now he's back with a show he calls "The JPIP^ World Tree," a new "musical dance celebration" built around his j l P S ^ t ? ** 11-piece Earth Band and Forces of Nature Dance Ensemble. ipy^X' Though Shelburne Farms isn't exactly the wilderness, "^IK Winter hopes the concert will raise public awareness „ . *» f Tjr about the Northern Forest.

homies Waterbury native James Harvey learned his licks in the big city, then came back home to become a local legend. A gifted trombonist and composer who's gigged with jazz innovators like D o n Cherry and Cecil Taylor, he's also at home on keyboards and drums. His month-old sextet, Garuda — named for a mythical bird that hatches in mid-flight — is a veritable homegrown all-star ensemble. Horn players Jennifer Hartswick and Andy Moroz are up-and-comers who toured with Trey Anastasio. Alex Stewart, tenor sax, chairs UVM's jazz program. Pianist Tom Cleary and bassist John Rivers are busy area musicians. W i t h Harvey driving from the drummer's seat, they take listeners down some musical roads less traveled.

w h e n air traffic was grounded after the 2001 terrorist attacks, movie stars at the Toronto International Film Festival rented cars to drive home across the heavily fortified border. Like other expected celebrities, Mick Jagger couldn't get into Canada for his scheduled media blitz. Screenings were cancelled for the day, parties for the remainder of the normally glamorous event. For a while, entertainment seemed incredibly superficial. But the show must go on. 11'09"01 was chosen as a fitting way to commemorate the anniversary at Toronto 2002, which began last Thursday and ends this weekend. The film is a compilation of 11 shorts by a variety of directors — including Sean Penn, Mira Nair, Ken Loach and Danis Tanovic of No Man's Land— who drew inspiration from last September's

tragedy. Each segment is 11 minutes and nine seconds long. A few generated controversy. Variety reported last month that three of the pieces are antiAmerican in tone, particularly a perspective on suicide bombers by Youssel Chahine of Egypt. Some journalists here have speculated that Thursday's public screening of 11'09"01 might attract protesters — Toronto has one of the world s largest Jewish populations. Hopefully, the shorts in question are not pure propaganda, and freedom of expression will prevail. Art, after all, is supposed to provoke.
professional rival David Alfaro Siqueros. Geoffrey Rush portrays Leon Trotsky, the doomed Soviet leader on the run from Stalin. What could have been a compelling portrait instead becomes alternately affecting and annoying. Despite uneven performances, the interesting cast is not the culprit. Director Julie Taymor, who created The Lion King for Broadway, unnecessarily animates several of Kahlo's already fanciful paintings. The love story eclipses the historical context rather than exploring the curious contradiction between Kahlo's personal and political liberation.
History and politics come together in Frida. This biographical account of bisexual Mexican painter and leftist Frida Kahlo, played by Salma Hayek, depicts her struggle to endure lifelong physical pain from injuries suffered in a bus accident. During the 1930s and 1940s, her emo-

Australian director Philip Noyce dispenses with the book's satirical observations on the French military, a literary device that presaged how the Yanks would run the war a decade later. Worse, Caine is far too direct for the role. Fowler should reflect Greene's reserve and dry, cynical wit. Fraser fares better, but doesn't quite capture the duplicitous character beneath his rah-rah surface. Michelle Pfeiffer, on the other hand, is entirely effective as a caring mother with a soul of ice in White Oleander. The compelling saga centers on a teenager (newcomer Alison Lohman) who grows up too quickly when her manipulative mom goes to jail for murder. The girl has two foster parents along the way. Robin

Goddard College graduate and part-time Woodbury resident William Macy is once again on the publicity circuit here for a new project, Welcome to Collinwood, which costars George Clooney.

THE PUZZLE • As you can guess from her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to predict. Her likes and dislikes change from one week to the next. This week, as always, the things she likes all follow a secret rule. Can you figure out what it is? (Keep in mind that Fickle Fannie likes words. But each week she likes something different about them—how they're spelled, how they sound, how they look, what they mean, or what's inside them.)

A monoprint by David Sokol
B Y M A R C AWODEY
T
his week our nation remembers September 11, 2001 — whether we want to or not. Friedrich Nietzsche described forgetting as "a divine capacity," essential if we are to move forward. But "9/11" and "forget" don't yet exist in the same sentence, unless the word "never" is included. Perhaps that's why a little art show at Burlington City Hall — David Sokol's 11 monoprints in "Cities of Fortune, Cities of Fate" — is such a refreshing departure from the usual images of havoc and inspiration spawned by 9/11. A crumbled Roman facade borrowed from Baroque artist Giovanni Battista Piranesi exists as a faded ghost beneath the modern cityscapes of Sokol's 9/11-inspired pieces. He uses a phototransfer process and tints the images with fiery details. Layers of a fine-mesh screen are also collaged over parts of the works, making them seem, at first glance, like engravings. The effect is an illusion, not unlike the illusion of permanence that a contemporary big-city skyline evokes. Maybe destruction is the inevitable fate of all architecture, and to ignore that fact is simple hubris. "The Domes of Florence" is an amalgamation of New York, Florence and ancient-Rome. Each of those cities is, or was, the greatest city of its epoch. Sokol painted geometric details onto the screen collage, adding the silhouettes of fanciful rooflines and domes to the foreground of the piece. Red, orange and yellow flames have also broken out across the compositions isolated areas, as if by spontaneous combustion. The city seems to be on the edge of a disaster, without any particular cause. "Chrysler Building" is an unambiguous New York cityscape with the same Piranesi ruin behind it, filling the right edge of the print. Sokol makes the ruin overly large, as if it looms over the Chrysler building and surrounding blocks. Again, dots of flame appear across the city. "Columns" uses a Piranesi print that is a
detail from a row of Corinthian columns. These stand above the skyline like tall buildings, about the same scale as the World Trade Center was as viewed from New York harbor. Cut-out screens create a dark row of shadowy buildings in the foreground. All of Sokol's cities layer images and materials in a highly effective way, illuminating his message on the transient nature of power. "Roman Grace Above the City" is a different sort of statement. A Roman angel in a bright-red cloak seems to be rising above vertical rectangles of screen — a skyline defined only as an abstraction. In this case the screen also echoes the broken facade that was the last standing vestige of the World Trade Center, and the gray ground is a desolate landscape. The image is curved at the top edge like an altarpiece, and framed with a black mat. The overall effect is somber, yet redemptive; the notion of an ancient Roman personification of grace presiding over the ruin somehow inspires hope. In addition to the cityscapes, Sokol has included a few monotypes not directly related to 9/11, but which demonstrate his skill as a printmaker. They are worth seeing in their own right. "Altar Window in Blue and Gold" has a flurry of blue and gold lines playing over a surface dominated by silvery gray tonalities. The image has a curved line similar to the outline of "Roman Grace Above the City," but a small rectangle has also been cut into the lower left corner of the mat, where blue and gold lines seem to have spilled out of the picture plane. "Three Trees and Lake" seems to have been printed from three frayed ends of rope, lined up vertically to serve as the trees. The trees are bright scarlet and are surrounded by a pulsating, electric atmosphere of blue and gray. One of the architects who designed the World Trade Center said "we wanted it to last forever, and to be beautiful." As we remember September 11, 2001, this week, we might also remember that forever and beauty do not coexist so easily. ®

Photographer Caleb Kenna calls
Brandon, Vermont, home, but calls the world his subject. A recent three-month trip to Thailand, Pakistan, India, Morocco and Afghanistan netted a new body of brilliantly colored photographs depicting everyday life on the other side of the planet. Kenna's photo-story on Afghanistan won second place in the National Press Photographer's Region One competition. His exhibit, "Global Visions, " opens this week at UVM's Living/Learning Gallery with a slide talk Thursday. Pictured, an Afghan family.

SEVEN DAYS
page23bt&iif'

ARIES
(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): "Before we can receive the unbiased truth abour anything," wrote m y teacher A n n Davies, "we have to be ready to ignore what we would like t o be true." Are you prepared to d o that, Aries? N o t h i n g will heal your frustration or dissolve your tension better than getting to the b o t t o m of the enigmas that are pressing up against you. But there's no way you can earn that deliverance unless you bravely set aside your fantasies, theories and opinions about what this is all about.
TAURUS
(Apr. 2 0 - M a y 20): Please repeat the following health-giving affirmations until you are totally committed to carrying t h e m out: "In the next seven days, I will wash n o dishes, do n o laundry and make n o beds. I'll devote myself to exploring every clue, throb and blip that captivates m y imagination. I'll lower the barrier between m y conscious and unconscious minds. I'll follow the smells I like. I'll listen closely to my body. I'll be kind to nobodies. I'll be wildly peaceful, fiercely tender and brilliantly sensitive. I'll actually kiss the earth. I'll listen to music that awakens unfamiliar emotions. I'll call out to the night sky, 'I defy you, stars.' And unless I can give m y whole heart, I won't offer it at all."
GEMINI
(May 21-June 20): O n e of these days I h o p e you'll try o n the idea that's at the core of m y life: pronoia. T h e opposite of paranoia, pronoia is the unshakable conviction that life is a vast conspiracy to liberate you from suffering, make you really smart, and shower you with blessings. It's not as simple as it might initially appear, however. For instance, the blessings flowing your way may not be the exact ones you imagine you want and deserve. They might even annoy or confuse you when they first show up. O n the other h a n d , if you welcome the blessings you're actually given, they will ultimately serve you better than any you'd expected. I
WiTf,
bring this up, Gemini, because you'll soon be offered a kind of grace that fits this description.
CANCER
(June 21-July 22):
As you grow older, you will become less enslaved by the negative imprints of your early childhood; you'll become increasingly free f r o m the distortions your soul suffered at the hands of your kin. At the same time, your advancing years will bring a wonderful perk: You'll be able to harvest ever-greater a m o u n t s of the valuable gifts bequeathed to you by your relatives, both those with w h o m you shared your early years and those w h o died before you were born. In other words, Cancerian, as you age you will gradually cast off your family's bad stuff and become better able to exploit its good stuff. A n d I bet the next five weeks will be a turning point in this process. L E O (July 23-Aug. 22): If your life had a title this week, it might be something like, " T h e Correlation Between the Quasi-NewtonKantovich M e t h o d s for the Multiple Solutions of the Nonlinear Operator Equations and the Quadratic Convergence of Primal-Dual Interior Point Degenerate Linear Programm i n g Algorithms." T h e n again, a more apt title might be, " T h e Correlation between Patiently Plowing through a Bunch of Boring Nonsense and Getting to the Juicy Reward That's H i d d e n on the O t h e r Side." N o w let m e ask you a question, Leo. As you read through the first title, did your eyes glaze over and your attention wane so badly that you wanted to stop reading? If so, you've got to build u p your patience muscles. Your i m m i n e n t future will resemble the structure of this horoscope.
VIRGO
yyS'S
(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): It's
one of your inalienable rights as a h u m a n being to receive a mysteriously useful o m e n every day. Logic alone isn't sufficient to guide you through life's labyrinthine tests, after all. You need and deserve regular deliveries of divine revelation. Unfortunately, our culture is so hostile to the sense of wonder that it's hard for any of us to get our m i n i m u m daily requirement of magic. T h e good news is that in the coming weeks your path will bring you into the vicinity of more signs and marvels than usual. Just assume that you'll receive a mysteriously useful o m e n every day.
LIBRA
(Sept. 2 3 - O c t . 22): A disease has been ravaging the oak trees where I live. O n e of m y favorite hiking trails takes m e past a hard-hit area. While a n u m b e r of the trees in this graveyard are clearly deceased, there are a few in a curious limbo state. At the ends of large rotting branches, straggling bits of green sprout here and there amidst the mostly withered husks of leaves. I wonder if this might serve as a metaphor for the dead part of your life, Libra? Are you being fooled into holding on to false hope by a lastgasp of feeble growth? I suggest it's time to accept the truth.
SCORPIO
(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Dear Pioneer: In the coming weeks, you will be invited to explore moods and states of awareness that are new to you. Given the frontiers you'll be crossing, you may need to enlarge your vocabulary in order to understand what's happening. Here are a few terms that may come in handy: 1. chantepleurr. t o sing and weep simultaneously. 2. chiaroscurofy: to find a comfortable place where you are partially in darkness and partially
illuminated, or half in shadow and half in sunlight. 3. ahahawhaw: to laugh uproariously and exclaim "aha!" simultaneously. 4. woivallelujah: a surge of u n c a n n y intuitions that comes while waking u p f r o m sleep or ignorance.
S A G I T T A R I U S (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): British poet D o n n a McLean has tried to patent herself. She took the unusual step in response to biotechnology companies that are buying u p exclusive rights to certain sequences of h u m a n D N A . "It has taken 30 years of hard labor for m e to discover and invent myself," McLean wrote in her application, "and n o w I wish to protect m y invention f r o m unauthorized exploitation, genetic or otherwise." You may not need to go as far as she has, Sagittarius, but it's high time you carried out a comparable ritual. W a n t a suggestion? Create a formal-looking d o c u m e n t on which you swear an oath like this: "I am in full possession of all m y natural and supernatural rights; m y destiny is completely in m y hands; I own m y own life." (Please feel free to create more clauses to add to this pledge.)
CAPRICORN
(Dec. 22Jan. 19): W h e n we hear someone described as having a good imagination, most of us assume that person must be in the arts. But in fact, some of the world's most creative visualizers are architects, inventors, city-planners, engineers, bridge-makers, and the like: nuts-and-bolts masterbuilders w h o design functional things. O f this group, you Capricorns make up a disproportionately high percentage. In fact, it seems that the members of your tribe are usually most imaginative when it comes t o transforming practical matters and vivifying concrete details. In the c o m ing weeks, that'll be true in spades.
A Q U A R I U S (Jan. 20RFeb. 18): R h o n d a Jones, a read; er f r o m Augusta, Georgia, sent m e one of the greatest toasts I've ever been honored to receive: "May you get what you want and still want it." Now, Aquarius, I relay this toast to you — just in time for your Season of Gratified Desire, when you're more likely to get what you w a n t than at any other time this year. I wish and pray and predict that you will soon be endowed with the answer to your dreams, and will be more excited than ever before as you bask in the afterglow.
PISCES
(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): T h e art of listening gets n o respect and has few masters. W h o has the time and energy, let alone the humility and sensitivity, to be fully receptive to someone else's narratives? Most people prefer to express their own amazing ideas and tell the stories of their own fascinating lives. That's why I regularly pay an expert $85 an h o u r to listen to me. She gives m e her undivided attention and asks great questions as I ramble on. She keeps track of the ongoing plotlines that unfold over the months, and even gives m e thought-provoking feedback. Personally, I think everyone deserves an ally like this all the time. But it's especially important for you right now, Pisces. You need the healing inspiration that only an intelligent listener can provide. ®

Lola
the love counselor
Dear Lola, My relationship with my Ions-term boyfriend has recently become strained by his telephonic manners — or should I say, lack thereof. I've long grown accustomed to hearing, say, public radio behind him, or bird song, if he's carried the portable out Into the garden. But at the end of a recent conversation with him I distinctly detected a tightening in his throat followed shortly thereafter by the sound of flushing. When I asked him if he was actually performing on the throne while we spoke, he neither affirmed nor denied the acctisation. But he also made it clear that even if he had been expressing himself In more than one way at the time, it wouldn't have been any big deal. Am I off-base on this, or is he being a big stinker? Miffed in Middlebury Dear Miffed, He's being a big stinker. It's one thing to multitask, but something else altogether to share your bodily functions. Sure, there are times when a body Just cant wait. But unless one's audience has a demonstrated fondness for vicarious evacuation, the considerate sitter hangs up before hitting the handle. Love, Lola

The Love Doctor wants to know. In a continuing effort to make love connections for Seven Days readers I a m looking for your input.
I want to k n o w w h a t type of singles events y o u want. What size events suit you best? Do you want events broken d o w n into age groups (if so w h a t ranges)? Would you pay for events (if so how much)? Would you attend a formal event or do you prefer more casual attire? Anything else you can think of? Events being planned are Speed Dating, Singled Out and the Dating G a m e .
