Seven Days briefly noted the tragic and senseless death of Dr. Kenneth Najarian [“The Last Seven Days,” June 24]. But the paper failed to mention Vermont’s increasing drunk-driving problem. WalletHub reports that Vermont is the eighth most lenient state for driving under the influence. And Mothers Against Drunk Driving only gives our Green Mountain State two out of five stars for our efforts to combat drunk driving. Is this the Vermont we want to live in? I urge our representatives in the Statehouse next session to expand our interlock law to include all convicted drunk drivers and open debate to create a minimum jail sentence for DUI first offense. We can do more to protect all Vermonters on our roads. Shane borger

cEDo RESpoNDS
[Re “CEDO: Progressives Fear Bernie Sanders’ Creation Has Lost Its Way,” July 1]: Alicia Freese’s well-reported account of CEDO’s recent reorganization — unanimously adopted on June 15 — underscores the important role we’ve historically played in Burlington. We welcome the challenge to better articulate our newly minted mission: “engaging our community to build a vibrant, healthy and equitable city.” CEDO was born of — and continues to stand for — expanding opportunities to those most in need. Emily Gunn’s Burlington Free Press opinion piece on CEDO’s restorative justice work is just one example of work we do every day. With all the media focus on development, it is easy to miss CEDO’s ongoing work with at-risk youth, affordable housing, the elderly, lead-based hazards, accessibility, race and equity — the list goes on. Far from losing our way, the new CEDO is on a clear path to expand this important work by growing economic vitality and the revenue needed to fund it. Three years ago, CEDO was in tough shape. Our dedicated staff was under siege from years of declining federal dollars, deficit spending, an outdated structure and a loss of public confidence. With input from new and long-tenured staff alike, we’ve completed a long-overdue retooling that responds to today’s fiscal realities and more effectively delivers key community

[Re “CEDO: Progressives Fear Bernie Sanders’ Creation Has Lost Its Way,” July 1]: The recent article regarding the changes in Burlington’s CEDO begged a couple of questions. When the reporter writes that CEDO under the Weinberger administration plans to address “the housing needs of middle-income residents,” my question is: Isn’t this what the private real estate market does? When City Councilor Jane Knodell states that this new “vision” for CEDO can “carry out a positive vision for Burlington,” my question is: Isn’t that what CEDO has been doing all along? The follow-up question would then be: Is Knodell’s vision — and others’ who support this refocusing — being blinded by the real estate developers’ money, which Mayor Weinberger is already way too cozy with? The first priority of the city should be affordable housing for all, not market-priced housing for those who can afford such units. In other words, CEDO should not become an agency furthering the gentrification of Burlington. Unfortunately, this looks like the direction Weinberger is steering it.
[“Color Blind: Outside Vermont, Can Sanders Talk Race, Immigration?” July 1]: Can Sen. Sanders get his message out to the minority community outside of Vermont? Absolutely! First, he has to establish his campaign and get his core message out. Second, Iowa and New Hampshire are predominantly white. He has already established that he has a great chance to win both of these states. Now that Sanders has established himself as the primary challenger to Hillary Clinton, he can begin to broaden his message. He has an impeccable record on race. As a college student at the age of 20, he organized and protested segregated housing on campus, and in 1963 he marched with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. He is campaigning with a platform that focuses on issues that are important to and will benefit the minority community a great deal, including increased Social Security, a $15 minimum wage, health care for all and affordable college education. You cannot expect a campaign that launched five weeks ago to address every problem and be all things to all people. As his campaign continues to grow and the media provides more coverage, you can expect the awareness of his record to increase substantially. The first rule of good politics is to define the issues. Bernie has done that, and now Hillary Clinton will be forced to respond, and she is not on firm ground. She is fighting on Bernie’s turf and will be for the rest of the primary. I’ll take Sen. Sanders’ record on the issues, whether they are issues specifically targeted to minorities or otherwise.

F
or this third-annual edition, we once again tap into a beloved natural resource in Vermont. Nope, not cheese or beer. CARTOONISTS: the artists who make our stories come alive with drawings and eliminate a whole lot of words. We called upon a few cartoonists in neighboring New Hampshire, too, but close to the CENTER FOR CARTOON STUDIES in White River Junction. That school has made the area a magnet for emerging cartoon talent, joining the likes of Vermont-based New Yorker contributors HARRY BLISS and EDWARD KOREN — Vermont’s current cartoonist laureate — as well as the state’s first cartoonist laureate, JAMES KOCHALKA. Other contributors comprise a diverse group of freelancers, teachers and comics-industry veterans. Equally diverse are the stories they’ve illustrated, from the serious to the silly. Hope you enjoy them.

Will Lower Property Values Be the Trend Along Lake Champlain? Much of the recent debate about Lake Champlain has focused on the cost of cleaning it up. The franklin County town of georgia has turned that around to consider: What’s the effect of a polluted lake on the value of property alongside it? The town recently lowered assessments for 37 lakefront properties on ferrand Road by $50,000 each, based on the seasonal bluegreen algae that permeates the water in front of them, said town administrator Michael McCarthy. Last year, McCarthy said, “The bay was terrible.” Residents of the camps and year-round homes along the lake found it unusable for recreation, he said. McCarthy hopes the town’s decision will draw greater attention to just how bad the lake is getting. Legislation passed this year creates a dedicated lake-cleanup fund and enacts new rules for farms and storm-water runoff. That’s a good start, but more needs to be done, he said.

Members of the union representing nurses at the university of vermont Medical Center in Burlington voted last Thursday to ratify a new contract that guarantees every nurse increased pay in each of the next three years. The confidential vote was “close,” said Jason Serota-Winston, a nurse and member of the negotiating team for the vermont federation of nurses and health Professionals. he attributed the narrow margin to members’ frustration that several key issues remain unaddressed in the agreement, including safe staffing and safe lifting. Also not in the contract: pay equity for nurses, whether they work in outpatient clinics or the hospital. The new contract raises all nurses’ base pay by 1 percent in the first year and by a half percent in each of the next two years. nurses haven’t had base pay increases in either of the last two years but had received a 1 percent increase in the first year of the most recent contract. University of Vermont The union Medical Center deflected several benefit changes it said the medical center negotiators proposed, such as requiring nurses to accept work assignments in units needing staff — a practice known as mandatory floating. The two sides began negotiating on April 30 and held 13 sessions before reaching agreement on a pay and benefit package for the 1,800 nurses represented by the vermont federation of nurses and health Professionals. union representatives presented their concerns to the hospital’s board of trustees on
June 18, warning that they might strike if a deal failed to materialize. Laurie Aunchman, interim president of the union, told trustees that nurses had worked 47,000 hours of overtime the year ending March 31, 2015 — showing their commitment to patient care as well as the need for additional staff. Safe staffing was one of the union’s negotiating sound bites, but the new contract doesn’t include any new guarantees. Aunchman said the hospital has acknowledged the need for some additional staff. “They are hiring,” she said.

Eileen Ryan Krause 1954-2015
Despite a large and close family, Eileen loved meeting new friends and caring for old ones. Her door was always open, her ear was never too tired and her heart was never too full to welcome more. Her love was powerful, and her devotion to her family and friends defined her. Her brothers and sisters, especially, were always on her mind and in her heart. Eileen had a marvelous sense of humor. In fact, she was so known for her pranks that no one believed her when she announced her marriage to her husband, James, on January 27, 1990, but, as she would insist, some decisions are just that easy. They had great fun, caused all sorts of mischief together, and built a beautiful life full of love for themselves and their daughter, and later their son-in-law and their grandson, in the 25 years of their marriage. (They also fished a whole lot.) Happiest on the water, with a fishing pole in hand and her family close by, Eileen didn’t need much in this world. Her joy was in giving, and she has earned her rest after a life spent mostly in service to others. We pray that our Lord watch over and keep her until we are with her again, but we send fair warning, because, in the fitting words of Shakespeare, “though she be but little, she is fierce.”
Eileen was preceded in death by her parents, Gloria and James Ryan, and her brother Michael Ryan. She is survived by her husband, James Krause; her daughter, Nichole Terrill, and son-in-law, Travis Terrill; her grandson, Luke Terrill; her sisters and brothers David Ryan, Patricia Hamilton, Kathleen Warner, Gloria Mansfield, Dennis Ryan, Rebecca Capron, James Ryan and Dan Holcombe; and many beloved nieces, nephews, cousins and friends. Eileen Ryan Krause was always an inspiration and forever a wonder. She will be greatly missed. Family and friends are invited to celebrate Eileen’s funeral Mass on Wednesday, July 15, 2015, at St. Francis Xavier Church, 3 Saint Peter Street, Winooski. Services will begin at 10 a.m., with interment in the adjoining cemetery following. Arrangements are under the care and direction of LaVigne Funeral Home and Cremation Service, Winooski.

Eileen Ryan Krause was born August 11, 1954, and made the world a wilder, funnier, more beautiful place until her passing on March 2, 2015. Eileen was born in Burlington and later lived in New York, Arizona and Missouri. She cherished the adventures and friends she made along the way, and no matter where she went, she brought music. From childhood singing contests to family kitchen jam sessions, leading her own band, impromptu singalongs with strangers on buses and lullabies for the little ones she loved, there was always a song for the moment. She brought so much joy to so many with her gift.

artoons are visually appealing and communicate quickly and accessibly — and not just to kids. A couple of ambitious adult projects in Vermont are currently using the compelling qualities of cartoons to tell the stories of people who might otherwise be voiceless. In White River Junction, two institutions central to the culture of that town — the CENTER FOR CARTOON STUDIES and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center — have teamed up on the CARTOONIST VETERAN PROJECT. Meanwhile, in Middlebury, the Open Door Clinic and the VERMONT FOLKLIFE CENTER are working with local cartoonists to convey the experiences of migrant farmworkers in Vermont. That project is called “El viaje más caro/The Most Costly Journey.”
or ‘the veterans’ as this big, abstract group,” Lunt says. “To be able to put faces to that, to be able to tell people’s actual stories … it’s a really powerful thing to get to do that.” He adds, “We’re hoping to make something accessible and valuable, so that people can see the complexity of this population that is a huge part of life in our country.”
Retired Air Force captain MADGE settled in Vermont after a military career that began in 1973. She now works as a secretary at the VA Medical Center and has shared her story with CCS students SANDI GETBAMRUNGRAT and JOE DAVIDSON. Morris did not see active combat; her experience is interesting for another reason: In the early ’70s, the Air Force did not count many African American women in its ranks. “Even today, there are not that many black female officers in the military,” says Morris. “I felt like I had a different aspect, since I was coming from a different point of view: being female, being a person of color, being retired.” Morris has also taught first graders in far-flung locations including Kuwait and Angola. “I know the value of comic books, as far as getting information across and making it more palatable to people who normally wouldn’t read,” she says. These days, Morris is reading an illustrated biography of 19th-century black abolitionist Harriet Tubman to her neighbors’ young children. “They’re really interested,” she says. “[Comics] don’t have to be ‘Archie.’ They can be based in fact and reality.” The cartoon stories in “El viaje más caro/The Most Costly Journey” are designed for a specific purpose: to relay health care information to a non-English-speaking population.

Funded in part by a $15,000 grant from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Cartoonist Veteran Project allows for a rare crosstown collaboration. Several CCS students are currently at work illustrating the stories of local veterans. The project began in February, when CCS invited vets to meet cartoonists, learn about the language of comics and participate in the process. CCS students J.D. LUNT and KELLY SWANN — who wrote and illustrated, respectively, the in-progress comic excerpted on page 23 — will edit a volume that results from the project. Ultimately, about half a dozen vet-cartoonist teams will produce autobiographical comics that will be exhibited at CCS on South Main Street. Lunt and Swann interviewed “their” veteran, Kevin, this spring. “He was very generous with his story and really wanted to tell it,” says Swann. She’s now turning that narrative into a six-page comic executed in ballpoint pen — an unconventional medium that Swann hopes will convey both realism and a sense of the story’s “shakiness.” “There’s a lot of talk about ‘the troops’

volunteer medical professionals provide free health services to the uninsured. In 2009, Doucet says, about 10 percent of the clinic’s patients were migrant farmworkers. Since then, that percentage has climbed to about 60. Doucet says migrant workers commonly report ailments that have no
traceable physical cause, being mental in origin. She says the cartoon program’s operating question is “What are we going to do to treat the anxiety and depression that is, by nature, present in this population? … The isolation, the loneliness; your family is far away and your culture is far away.”

It compounds the challenge that, in some of the migrant workers’ native cultures, mental illness is “not something that is openly discussed,” Doucet says. After she learned about CCS on a public radio show, Doucet began to think about the communicative potential of comics. “What better way to transmit a message than through visual means?” she says. “El viaje más caro/The Most Costly Journey” has support from the University of Vermont Extension’s Farming Across Cultures Communication Project. One of its goals, according to migrant health coordinator Naomi Wolcott-maccauslaNd,
cartoonists tillie WaldeN and ioNa Fox, whose comics also appear in this issue. marek BeNNett illustrated a story related by a farmworker he knew only as José, excerpted on page 22 in English translation. Its unexpected coda highlights the tenuousness of migrant farmworkers’ lives in Vermont. José has since disappeared. Not all migrants’ stories are so troubling. alegria Pérez came to Middlebury five years ago from Querétaro, Mexico.

In addition, its delivery and insurance systems are so byzantine that even native English speakers can have difficulty navigating them. That’s a good reason to use comics as a guide. By summer’s end, says Wolcott-MacCausland, “El viaje” will have produced six Spanishlanguage pamphlets and distributed them to migrant workers.

The Sabbatical

“
h, excuse me just a minute,” my customer said, interrupting our chat as we sped along the highway toward Stowe. He glanced down to check a text he had just received and chuckled. “My friend in Brooklyn sent me a picture of my puppy happily sleeping. I just acquired this dog, and he knows how nervous I was about leaving him for the weekend. He’s doggy sitting for me. You want to see?”
I couldn’t place terrence by race or natIonalIty;
he could pass for just about any ethnicity.
couple. They’re both retired now but were teachers.” I let that sink in while I did the math in my head. “So you would have been coming of age during the antiapartheid struggle. That must have been amazing, if not scary. And your parents — God, I could only imagine. Weren’t they, like, breaking the law?” “The antimiscegenation laws, yes. But there was a whole community of mixedrace couples, and they all found a way to carry on. There was a lot of mutual support.” We reached the Green Mountain Inn to find Terrence’s friends waiting for him in front. After a brief discussion, we agreed that I would pick them up in two days for transport back to the Burlington airport. Two days later, I did just that. But an hour after dropping the three at BTV, I received a call from Terrence. “It turned out our flight was canceled, so we’re staying overnight at the Hilton on the Burlington waterfront. Our quickest flight back is tomorrow morning, flying out of Manchester, New Hampshire. Could you take that long a trip? Is that something you would consider?” “I do, I can and I will,” I replied with genuine enthusiasm. My schedule was clear, and I would make some good money. Plus, I enjoyed these three guys. I was pretty sure they were all gay, but I wasn’t certain. My clues were (a) they all dressed impeccably, (b) at no point was there talk of wives or girlfriends, and (c) the chocolate-brown schnauzer. The next day I picked them up at 8 a.m., an early hour for this mostly nighttime cabbie. For the first two hours of the
three-hour ride, they all slept — Terrence in the front and his two pals in the back. I admit to being a little disappointed; I had anticipated some first-class schmoozing. Apparently they had enjoyed the pleasures of Burlington ’til the wee hours, including a bravado Italian meal at L’Amante. My customers began to stir after we crossed the Connecticut River into New Hampshire. Having brought along some CDs, I asked Terrence if they’d like music. “Absolutely,” he replied. “Whatever you choose.” I slipped in a CD of a series of concerts Jackson Browne had recorded live in Spain accompanied by some of that country’s finest and best-known musicians. Somehow Jackson’s music mixed perfectly with the Spanish lilt and tilt of his bandmates, many playing traditional Iberian instruments. As we listened, the feeling in the cab grew palpably soulful. I glanced over at my seatmate, who appeared deep in contemplation, his hand on his chin, his eyes glistening. He met my eyes and said, “This is good.” “I know it is,” I agreed with a smile. “It’s good sabbatical music.” Terrence smiled and nodded. “It’s good for your spirit,” I added. “Now you’re pushing it, Jernigan,” he said, and we both laughed. m All these stories are true, though names and locations may be altered to protect privacy.

I said sure, and the customer passed me his cell. Steering with one hand, I checked out his pooch, a tiny fluffy thing snoozing atop a hubcap-size, cherry-red cushion. I said, “That dog is adorable, man. What is he — a schnauzer?” “You got it — a chocolate-brown schnauzer. I named him Charley.” Terrence was headed to the Green Mountain Inn to meet two friends whom I had driven there the previous day. One of the two was a white South African; the other man, from Bangladesh, was chocolate-brown like Charley. I couldn’t place Terrence by race or nationality; he could pass for just about any ethnicity. His English was accented — though just slightly — and that, too, I couldn’t pin down. “So you’re from New York City, I take it?” I asked.
“I’ve been living there for over a decade now, yes. Right in mid-Manhattan, near the UN.” “What do you do for work?” “I’m in corporate law, general counsel to a huge multinational company. I oversee their Asia division. But I’m currently on a six-month sabbatical.” “Sabbatical, you say? Hmm. Well, you look about 40. Would I be far off if I speculated you were reconsidering whether you want to remain general counsel to a huge multinational company?” “Am I that obvious?” Terrence said with a laugh. “I’m taking this time to recalibrate and reassess things. Just please don’t call it a midlife crisis. I’d hate to be a living cliché.” “I wouldn’t dream of it,” I assured him, and we laughed together. “So, if you ever left the law, or this part of the law, is there something else in life you’re passionate about?” “There is. I’m devoted to classical piano. I’m taking lessons again, and I love it. Unfortunately, I’ve not the skill or talent level to make a career of it. But that’s OK.” “You moved to the Big Apple a decade ago. Where did you grow up?” “I’m from South Africa. I went to both college and law school in Washington.” “Do you have Indian heritage in the family? I know there’s a substantial Indian population in South Africa.” “No, but I do get that all the time. I also get Latino and Asian. This actually works to my advantage when I travel. Wherever I am, the natives think I’m one of them.” He shook his head and chuckled, I imagined, over the human tendency to classify. “My parents are, in fact, a black and white

THE STRAIGHT DOPE BY CECIL ADAMS
Dear Cecil,
We know some far-off stars like Betelgeuse look highly unstable and could go supernova at any time (this being a relative term). But what about closer to home — say, within 50 lightyears? What if Arcturus burned through all its hydrogen and went supernova? What effect would that have here on Earth? Travis van Dreven some of the biggest brains in our species have devoted a good chunk of the available clock cycles to heading them off. Second order. These are the thousand- to hundred-thousand-year threats. The classic example, brought to mind by my recent column on the subject, is the next ice age, once thought to loom but now indefinitely postponed. Modern humans — people who, with a little cleaning up, you could invite over for an evening of spare ribs and pinochle — have endured at least one such trial already. For now global warming has pushed the return of the glaciers to the back of the freezer, as it were. But there’s much we don’t understand. Who the hell knows? Third order. These are perils that may come to pass in the millions or tens of millions of years. Here we’re talking about giant asteroid strikes, great extinctions (I realize one can cause the other) and other cataclysms that permanently affect the planet and everything living
on it. So far as we know, no such event has occurred within human experience. That said, there’s good evidence these things have happened, and they might again. Fourth order. These are disasters that may strike within the hundreds of millions to billions of years — “very lowprobability, high-consequence problem[s],” as professor Beech puts it. This is the territory he’s staked out. In the densely argued paper referred to above, he makes the following observations: • A typical supernova must occur within 10 parsecs (about 33 light-years, or 192 trillion miles) of Earth to have any noticeable effect on terrestrial life. The closest star that’s on track for supernovadom, IK Pegasi (a binary pair, actually), is 46 parsecs away; Betelgeuse, considered the star likeliest to go supernova next, is 197 parsecs distant. Arcturus, since
already gotten smacked a few times. • But — a very big but, if I may speak frankly — we don’t know this for a fact. Although scientists have conjectured that this or that turning point in Earth’s history stemmed from the planetary surface having been crisped by a close-up supernova, evidence confirming this is lacking. (A few supernovas have been spotted in historical times, but all were at harmless distances.) In other words, the risk posed by supernovas and GRBs is entirely theoretical. Granted, theory is what scientists do. Professor Beech concedes the threat is “not one of immediate concern,” immediate being defined as within the next several million years. However, in his view, that’s no reason to put the matter out of our minds. He think it’s worth looking near other pre-nova or just-past-nova stars for signs of large-scale astroengineering projects constructed by advanced civilizations attempting to shield themselves from incineration. We’ll let the professor brood about that. As for you, Trevor: If you want to have the occasional palpitation about giant asteroids, go for it. But cross supernovas off your list.

e’ve got drought in California, economic crisis in Europe, random mayhem all over, and you’re fretting about supernovas? Well, somebody has to. Luckily, one of our top individuals has already done the spadework. Let me introduce astronomer Martin Beech, author of a 2011 paper, “The Past, Present and Future Supernova Threat to Earth’s Biosphere.” Short version: You can renew your magazine subscriptions for another year. To set the table for the long version, let’s talk about existential threats. These can be categorized as follows: First order. We may think of these as hundred-year perils, indicating the timeframe within which the cloacal discharge has a decent chance of encountering the rotary distributor. Examples abound: nuclear war, global warming, resource exhaustion. If the most alarming predictions have yet to become reality, that’s partly because
you asked, is 11 parsecs away. Seeming implication: Don’t worry about it. • Not so fast. No supernova candidates are within striking distance of us now. However, as the stars wheel through the cosmos over astronomical time, some may come within range. • Another cosmic peril is gamma-ray bursts (GRBs), focused beams of highenergy radiation thought to be thrown off by, among other things, massive supernovas. GRBs have a lethal range of 1,000 parsecs. The GRBs we detect (they’re quite common) come from galaxies much further away and so are harmless. However, if (a) a massive star within 1,000 parsecs of us were to go nova and (b) said nova produced a GRB and (c) said GRB were pointed in our direction, Earth would be smoked. • What are the chances? Professor Beech calculates that, “over the remaining life of the biosphere” — that is, the roughly two billion years he thinks we’ve got left before our dying sun snuffs out earthly life — we may get belted by one GRB and 20 supernovas, or roughly one every 100 million years. Indeed, Earth may have

Three days a week, the truck will pop up at sites such as the Milton trailer park and Shelburne’s Harbor Place, whose 150 residents live in former motel rooms sans proper kitchens. Moseley says the truck’s mission is as much about outreach as it is about feeding the hungry. “This is a great way to educate people on what’s seasonal and local even if they aren’t familiar,” Moseley says.

While that may seem basic enough, “Ninety percent of the people had no idea what grits were,” Moseley says. “I don’t consider that being much of a stretch from a culinary perspective, but you really have to try and meet people where they’re at.” One day a week, the truck will serve the general public from outside L.L.Bean in Burlington. Lunches will cost $10 to $15, and proceeds will help subsidize the free meals. Moseley says he hopes the downtown presence will also serve as outreach for the food shelf’s work. “[The truck] will give people another avenue to find out who we are and to connect in a different way,” Moseley says.

Mogor says he never intended to open a café, but when he set up shop on the main drag two years ago, he found a space well-suited to hosting and a community of people willing to help. “Once we set up,” he said, “we were like, We can complete a room; why don’t we hold art events here? Then I just happened to meet some amazing people who were like, We can cook; we’re professionals. And what a nice place to come and relax and enjoy the art and the food.” Rogue Artisans Café is open for staff training now; Mogor says he hopes to début the café’s full menu this weekend.

Ken Burns is a rock star among documentarians.

The director will present Vietnam: A Work in Progress at Dartmouth College, where viewers will see a rough-cut episode of the 10-part, 18-hour documentary slated for a 2017 release, and get the inside scoop on Burns’ creative process.

The members of the Dustbowl Revival may reside in Los Angeles, but they sure are tough to pin down. Since the band’s inception in 2007, as the result of a craigslist ad posted by founder Z. Lupetin, the ensemble has grown to eight full-time members and offers a spectrum of traditional American sounds. With songs that call on sounds from bluegrass to blues to New Orleans swing, the band shows a strong commitment to all things retro and rootsy. The Revival’s forthcoming album, With a Lampshade On, is a collection of tunes performed for a lively, participatory audience. They bring their instruments — washboard, kazoo and all — for an old-time dance party at ArtsRiot.

In other news, there’s an interesting Battle of the Bands-style competition getting under way this weekend at Franny O’s, of all places. The SoBu dive is better known as a destination for rock cover bands — and the scenic view of the Kmart parking lot. But this contest, dubbed the Vermont Original Music Competition, is geared toward, well, local original music. For the next four Sundays, original acts will take to the stage vying for a spot in the finals, to be held on Saturday, August 15, as part of the Burlington Rotary’s CityFest at Veterans Memorial Park. Spearheading the contest is mArk cAmirE, who handles booking for the bar and who, for the last couple of years, has run a nifty little local-music showcase there on Tuesdays. So the VOMC is not quite as out of the (Labatt) blue as might seem at first blush. This week’s slate includes NEAr North, thuNDEr kittENS, DANiEL wYmAN and my new favorite band — even though I’ve never heard them — pABSt BLuE rhYthm. Contestants on future Sundays include miSS miSErY, rEhAB roADhouSE, JoEY kEouGh kENith and the A&m BAND (July 19); JohN SmYth, StEVE hArtmAN, chriS pArkEr and SEAN cASEY (July 26); and JuSt BLAzE, GNEiSS, BEN hook and the howArD riNG BAND (August 2).

I’m not gonna lie, folks. As I type this, I’m giddy. In fact, I can barely see straight. I keep twirling my pen like a drumstick in my right hand, while my left arm is tucked behind my back. I’m freakin’ out. That’s because I’m about T-minus 24 hours away from realizing one of my oldest and greatest rockand-roll dreams: I’m finally seeing DEf LEppArD in concert. Expect a full report in these pages next week. Just know that right now I’m hot, sticky sweet, from my head to my feet, at the prospect of seeing Def Lep — all nine arms of ’em — some 25plus years after they first rocked me to my core as a 10-year-old hair-metal fan. In the meantime, the local show must go on. So let’s get rocked — or klezmered, as the case may be.
soil seven years ago. They begin a monthlong run of shows this week. If you don’t remember them, IFD were an evolutionary cousin of the late, great local gypsy band BLAck SEA QuArtEt, which helped popularize Eastern European music in the Green Mountains in the early 2000s. Both bands featured accordionist DAViD SYmoNS, who is now based in New Orleans, where he works as an accordion repairman. Symons also founded the radical street band the BrASS BALAGAN, a group that remains active and activist; they can be seen playing pretty much any left-leaning protest rally in the state. They also remain snazzy in their signature red coveralls. In addition to Symons, IFD featured some top-notch local talent including guitarist tim LANG, currently of cumbia outfit mAL mAiz, upright bassist tYLEr BoLLES, currently of SwALE — and yes, we’re related — and clarinetist zoE chriStiANSEN. Christiansen, you may recall, made the news — namely, my first-ever cover story for Seven Days — in 2007, when she got in trouble for brazenly busking on the Church Street Marketplace (gasp!) without a permit. You’ll be happy to know that the onetime scofflaw has turned out OK. She has since graduated from a little school called the New England Conservatory and currently performs with the worldrenowned kLEzmEr coNSErVAtorY BAND. As Symons writes in a recent email to 7D, IFD combined “intricate and soulful Balkan, Yiddish and original
instrumentals with a class-conscious, theatrical, Brechtian sensibility.” In layman’s terms, they were a lot of fun, especially if you caught them on a steamy summer night at Radio Bean, which was apt to erupt into a sweaty dance party at any moment. IFD play three shows this week: Thursday, July 9, at Sushi Yoshi in Stowe; Saturday, July 11, at the Whammy Bar in Calais; and Wednesday, July 15, at Red Square in Burlington. They’ll play several more gigs around the state throughout July. So check your local listings. Also, note that bassist JohN thompSoN will appear with the band for about half of their gigs, so consider this half of the usual disclaimer regarding my li’l bro.

The Best Is Yet to Come?
SALSA NIGHT
Last but not least, I’ve received a lot of feedback following the rundown of the best local albums from the first half of 2015 that ran in this column the past two weeks. Most of it has been positive, save for the occasional pissy missive about this band not being included or that band not deserving the recognition. (To which I humbly say: Once you’ve listened to all of those records — some 60-plus and counting already this year — by all means, make your own damn list.) But I also received inquiries about what albums to watch for in coming months. So here’s a handful of the Vermont albums I’m particularly looking forward to before year’s end. Local indie duo POURS leaked a song, “Ellie,” from their forthcoming EP last week. And it’s tantalizing. There’s plenty of the spectral, synthy ear candy you’d expect, but with sturdier vocal melodies than were heard on the band’s self-titled 2014 debut. No word on a release date, but stay tuned. WAYLON SPEED’s KELLY RAVIN — husband of new 7D calendar writer KRISTEN RAVIN, BTW — is set to release his latest solo effort, County Songs, in August. I can’t think of a local songwriter whose progression I’ve enjoyed watching more over the years. The starkly beautiful, outlaw-country-tinged Leathered, Weathered, Worn & Wiser was one of my favorite local albums of 2013. Really curious to hear what’s next from Ravin. Indie rockers VILLANELLES have been threatening a new album for what

Moving on, the annual Battery Park Free Concert Series gets under way in Burlington this week. And the 2015 edition might just feature the strongest lineup in the history of the long-running concert series, which happens at Battery Park. And is free. For the uninitiated, the BPFCS happens every Thursday in July. It kicks off this Thursday, July 9, with acclaimed indie-folk band GOOD OLD WAR. That group is based in Philly but has a local connection in singer-guitarist DAN SCHWARTZ, formerly of the BTV bands the DAKOTA and ELEMENTRIX. They’re touring behind a new record, Broken Into Better Shape, produced by DOLLY PARTON’s producer, JASON LEHNING. So if you’re keeping score, that means we’re all, like, two degrees removed from Dolly. Rounding out the slate are locals

foster
a
normative
thoughtful
skepticism
assumptions
and
an
appreciation for weird, arresting imagery.” On his website, Powell, who teaches graphic design at SUNY Plattsburgh, writes that his work encourages “a new look at our assumptions about science and a materialist representation of reality.” The works are on view through August 31.

movies Me and Earl and the Dying Girl ★★★
A
s the best-selling young-adult author Edgar Allan Poe observed in his 1846 essay “The Philosophy of Composition,” “The death then of a beautiful woman is unquestionably the most poetical topic in the world.” Few filmmakers have taken those words to heart as literally as Alfonso Gomez-Rejon (The Town That Dreaded Sundown), whose Sundance hit is about precisely that. Well, that and the way a self-absorbed high school kid is affected by said woman’s premature demise. Mostly the latter. Me and Earl and the Dying Girl is told from the point of view of a Pittsburgh senior named Greg (Thomas Mann), a youth obsessed with classic cinema and lacking in people skills. He’s so ill equipped to handle human relationships, in fact, that he can’t bring himself to call lifelong bud Earl (RJ Cyler) his friend. He calls him his “coworker.” What the two work on together are micro-budget parodies of the great films they love. Featuring stop-motion animation, primitively crafted clay figures and jokey titles, their projects suggest the sort of things
Wes Anderson might’ve produced in his Clearasil years. When you’re watching a movie about a dying girl, you can use the occasional laugh, and Greg and Earl’s bargain-basement blockbusters deliver. Among the most memorable are Senior Citizen Kane, My Dinner With André the Giant, 2:48 Cowboy and A Sockwork Orange, in which Kubrick’s hell-raising droogs are played by, yup, white sock puppets. One day Greg’s mother (Connie Britton) takes him aside and orders him to visit a classmate named Rachel (Olivia Cooke), who’s just been diagnosed with leukemia. It’s one of the least subtle plot devices I’ve ever witnessed. The two young people don’t know each other, and the mother’s motivation isn’t to cheer up Rachel or help her in some way — rather, it’s to make Greg a better person. “You have been given a real opportunity!” she enthuses, though for what she neglects to say. The answer quickly becomes apparent: He has the opportunity to take center stage in the anti-The Fault in Our Stars. As scripted by Jesse Andrews, based on his book, the pic-
SICK DAYS Cooke, Mann and Cyler play film-loving friends in Gomez-Rejon’s tragicomedy about a young woman’s final weeks.
ture seems to have the mission of confronting its characters with conventions of the dying-teen genre and congratulating itself on going the other way. Characters in Greg and Rachel’s situation, for example, would typically fall in love. Not only do they not fall in love, but Greg announces in voice-over that “No, this is not where the two lock eyes, declare their love and tumble into each other’s arms.” The director actually shoots the cliché version of events and then cuts to his presumably cooler twist on the situation. At such times, the movie can come off as a tad too pleased with itself. Hey, see what we just did there? At other times, Gomez-Rejon comes uncomfortably close to treating Rachel’s death with glibness. Scenes open with ironic inter-

Magic Mike XXL ★★★★
DAILY BUMP AND GRIND Plot and star power take a backseat to party atmosphere in Jacobs’ sequel.
While Mike has a few issues to work out, he’s less a protagonist than a convenient focus for this loosely structured ensemble drama. Characters who were little more than well-oiled abs and punch lines in Magic Mike — “Big Dick” Richie (Joe Manganiello), grizzled Tarzan (Kevin Nash) and pretty boy Ken (Matt Bomer) — now get their own hopes, dreams and monologues. In ditching the more rigid conventions of the first movie, XXL imitates its heroes, who toss their well-loved G-strings and props while hopped up on Molly and trekking north in a fro-yo van. They want to keep their act fresh — and so, apparently, do the filmmakers. (Reid Carolin returned as writer, Gregory Jacobs directed, and Steven Soder-

REVIEWS
M
agic Mike XXL is a summer lawn party of a movie. While the over-the-top title and basic concept may limit its theatrical appeal to women in inebriated groups, this is largely a film about dudes hanging out and shooting the breeze. There’s a fun, inclusive quality to its shaggy-dog narrative, for those willing to suspend their disbelief and check their inhibitions at the door. It’s instructive to compare Magic Mike XXL with Pitch Perfect 2. Both are sequels to surprise hits with primarily female appeal. Both celebrate and elevate a form of performance that has historically been mocked by the “cool kids” (male stripping and a cappella, respectively) while reveling in its campier aspects. Magic Mike and Pitch Perfect also shared a standard “initiation” plot structure in which an outsider explores the strange world of these exhibitionist outcasts. But, while Pitch Perfect 2 doubled down on its predecessor’s well-worn tropes — even adding a new outsider character — Magic Mike XXL blithely throws all that out the window. Gone is Alex Pettyfer’s novice character, along with Matthew McConaughey. The film opens with the titular Mike (Channing Tatum), who now owns a successful construction business, agreeing to join his old Tampa buddies on a road trip to a stripper convention.
titles such as “Day 1 of Doomed Friendship,” and progress until she runs out of days. It’s like (500) Days of Summer if Zooey Deschanel’s character were terminal. Hey, I appreciate quirk as much as the next guy, but I’m not sure the untimely, painful demise of a young woman is the most appropriate subject for showcasing a filmmaker’s hip worldview. Don’t get me wrong: The movie has moments of humor, warmth and real originality. And its young cast is immensely talented and appealing. I’m just not sure its heart is in the right place. No matter how close he gets to the Dying Girl, Greg makes sure the focus of the film remains Me.
bergh, who directed the first film, shot and edited this one under pseudonyms.) There’s still plenty of bumping and grinding, but not exclusively by our heroes. Instead, the movie explores a broader hedonistic nightlife culture in which all the women are plastered, horny and carrying stacks of small bills, and all the men are eager to cater to their desires — especially since they might get to hook up after the show. In one lengthy, dreamlike sequence, Jada Pinkett Smith presides over a private Savannah club where woman are called “queens,” and Donald Glover (of “Community”) pops up to expound on the healing power of stripping. In short, viewers who firmly believe that “male entertainment” is exploitative — to
performers, customers or both — would be well-advised to avoid the movie. Carolin’s script barely acknowledges the seamier side of titillation for pay. But then, that’s because Magic Mike XXL essentially takes place in an alternate universe — one where nights seem to stretch forever, illuminated by mellow blues and purples and pulsing to sensual pop beats. Scenes that might have floundered — like Mike’s flirtation on the beach with a stranger (Amber Heard) — get a boost from sheer staging and atmosphere. Just as Pitch Perfect 2 gave us conceits such as a secret club hosting a cappella riffoffs, so this movie offers a set piece in which Mike and his friends happen to stumble into a gathering of very rich, very tipsy southern belles of a certain age. Scenes like this are fantasy fulfillment for both characters and audience. They work largely — perhaps only — because of the expressive camera work and lighting and the easy, naturalistic performances. In the grand tradition of warm-weatherthemed entertainment — which stretches back to A Midsummer Night’s Dream — Magic Mike XXL almost makes us believe in a world that’s all parties and no hangovers. Just don’t expect it to play so well in the harsh light of February. MARGO T HARRI S O N

Swiss police arrested a robot that bought 10 ecstasy pills on the internet. The drugs were included in a shopping list given to it by the art group that designed it: !Mediengruppe Bitnik. The robot, part of the group’s exhibit in St. Gallen, was allowed a weekly budget of $100 in bitcoins to order merchandise randomly online and also purchased fake Diesel jeans, a baseball cap with a hidden camera, a stash can, Nike trainers, 200 Chesterfield cigarettes, a set of fire-department master keys, a fake Louis Vuitton handbag and Lord of the Rings ebooks. Police released the robot after determining that Bitnik never intended selling or consuming the ecstasy. (Britain’s Guardian)

an accessible orgy for disabled people. Litigation Nation
Anna Goldshmidt and Elan Stratiyevsky demanded that New York’s Waldorf Astoria hotel return the money they paid for their wedding there or risk a lawsuit. The couple contends that the hotel cut short the event because a guest at the reception accidentally fired a gun, grazing a woman in the head. Lawyer Benjamin Brafman said the couple is also considering suing the guest. A hotel official said the reception was canceled immediately after the shooting due to safety concerns. (Associated Press) Gregory Reddick, 54, said he’s suing New York City for arresting him after he charged two tourists $400 for a ride on the landmark Staten Island Ferry. The ferry has been free since 1997. Reddick, who police said has “at least five aliases, six Social Security numbers,” and a history of burglary and credit-card fraud convictions, acknowledged his rap sheet is real but insisted that selling tickets is legal and has turned his life around. “It’s better than McDonald’s money,” he said. “It’s better than Burger King money.” (New York Post and Gothamist) A Colorado judge ordered the parents of Aurora shooting victim Jessica Ghawi to pay $220,000 to the companies that sold ammo and body armor to gunman James Holmes. Sandy and Lonnie Phillips sued the four online businesses but lost. Under state law, plaintiffs who sue gun makers or dealers and lose have to pay the defendants’ legal fees. (Huffington Post)

Toronto has scheduled an accessible orgy for disabled people, with space for 20 wheelchairs, an interpreter for the deaf and free admission for caretakers. The August 14 event is the brainchild of Stella Palikarova, 35, who is in a wheelchair because of spinal muscular atrophy but declared nothing is wrong with her libido and is tired of people assuming there must be. “The naysayers are just subconsciously hating the fact that people in wheelchairs are having great sex, better sex than a lot of people are having,” she explained. Fellow organizer Andrew Morrison-Gurza, 31, agreed, declaring, “A wheelchair can become just a big sex toy.” Palikarova noted that the Deliciously Disabled sex night coincides with

REAL free will astrology by rob brezsny
(JUNE 21 - JULY 22)
novel In Search of Lost Time. After finishing each page, Maugham ripped it out and cast it away. The book weighed less and less as his journey progressed. I suggest that you consider a similar approach in the coming weeks, taurus. As you weave your way toward your next destination, shed the accessories and attachments you don’t absolutely need. Keep lightening your load.
When novelist John Irving begins a new book, his first task is to write the last line of the last page. Then he writes the second-to-last line. He continues to work backward for a while until he has a clear understanding of the way his story will end. right now, Cancerian, as you hatch your next big phase of development, I invite you to borrow Irving’s approach. Visualize in detail the blossoms that will eventually come from the seeds you’re planting. Create a vivid picture of the life you will be living when your plans have fully ripened.
gemiNi (May 21-June 20): “I have gathered about me people who understand how to translate fear into possibility,” writes John Keene in his story “Acrobatique.” I’d love to see you do the same, Gemini. from an astrological perspective, now is a favorable time to put your worries and trepidations to work for you. you have an extraordinary capacity to use your doubt and dread to generate opportunities. even if you go it alone, you can accomplish minor miracles, but why not dare to think even bigger? team up with brave and resourceful allies who want to translate fear into possibility, too.
liBra (sept. 23-oct. 22): The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to acquire a new title. It’s quite possible that a person in authority will confer it upon you, and that it will signify a raise in status, an increase in responsibility or an expansion of your clout. If for some reason this upgrade doesn’t occur naturally, take matters into your own hands. tell people to refer to you as “your excellency” or “your Majesty.” Wear a name tag that says “Deputy Director of Puzzle-solving” or “executive Vice-President of fanatical balance and Insane Poise.” for once in your life, it’s oK to risk becoming a legend in your own mind. P.s. It wouldn’t be a bad time to demand a promotion — diplomatically, of course, in the Libran spirit.

Virgo (Aug. 23-sept. 22): even the most
provocative meme cannot literally cause the internet to collapse from overuse. It’s true that photos of Kim Kardashian’s oiledup butt spawned a biblical flood of agitated responses on social media. so did the cover shot of Caitlyn Jenner in Vanity Fair and the youtube video of a tiny hamster noshing tiny burritos and the season 5 finale of the tV show “Game of Thrones.” but none of these starbursts unleashed so much traffic that the web was in danger of crashing. It’s too vast and robust for that to ever happen. or is it?
and July 22, your password and mantra and battle cry is “serendipity.” to make sure you are clear about its meaning, meditate on these definitions: a knack for uncovering surprising benefits by accident; a talent for stumbling upon timely help or useful resources without searching for them. Got that? now I’ll provide clues that should help you get the most out of your lucky breaks and blessed twists: 1. be curious and receptive, not lackadaisical and entitled. 2. expect the unexpected. Vow to thrive on surprises. 3. your desires are more likely to come true if you are unattached to them coming true. but you should formulate those desires clearly and precisely.
sagittarius (nov. 22-Dec. 21): on behalf of the strange Angels in Charge of uproarious beauty and tricky truths, I am pleased to present you with the award for Most Catalytic fun-seeker and Intriguing Game-Changer of the zodiac. What are your specific superpowers? you’re capable of transforming rot into splendor. you have a knack for discovering secrets that have been
hidden. I also suspect that your presence can generate magic laughter and activate higher expectations and wake everyone up to the interesting truths they’ve been ignoring.
caPricorN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “Who is that can tell me who I am?” asks King Lear in the shakespeare play named after him. It’s a painful moment. The old boy is confused and alarmed when he speaks those words. but I’d like to borrow his question and transplant it into a very different context: your life right now. I think that you can engender inspirational results by making it an ongoing meditation. There are people in a good position to provide you with useful insights into who you are. aQuarius
(Jan. 20-feb. 18): What’s hard but important for you to do? What are the challenging tasks you know you should undertake because they would improve your life? The coming days will be a favorable time to make headway on these labors. you will have more power than usual to move what has been nearly impossible to move. you may be surprised by your ability to change situations that have resisted and outfoxed you in the past. I’m not saying that any of this will be smooth and easy. but I bet you will be able to summon unprecedented amounts of willpower and perseverance.
Pisces
(feb. 19-March 20): franz Kafka produced three novels, a play, four short fiction collections and many other stories. And yet some of his fellow writers thought he was uncomfortable in expressing himself. bertolt brecht said Kafka seemed perpetually afraid, as if he were being monitored by the cops for illicit thoughts. Milena Jesenská observed that Kafka often wrote like he was sitting naked in the midst of fully clothed people. your assignment in the coming weeks is to shed such limitations and inhibitions from your own creative expression. What would you need to do to free your imagination? to get started, visualize five pleasurable scenarios in which you feel joyful, autonomous, generous and expansive.

fill your potential as an Aries? What strategies will help you become the best Aries you can possibly be? now is an excellent time to meditate on these riddles. one of my Aries readers, Mickki Langston, has some stellar tips to inspire you: 1. one of your greatest assets is your relentless sense of purpose. treasure it. stay connected to it. Draw on it daily. 2. Love what you love with pure conviction, because there is no escaping it. 3. other people may believe in you, but only sometimes. That’s why you should unfailingly believe in yourself. 4. It’s your duty and your destiny to continually learn more about how to be a leader. 5. Don’t be confused by other people’s confusion. 6. your best friend is the fool, who will guide you to laughter and humility when you need it most, which is pretty much all of the time.
mission to lose your train of thought, forget about what was so seriously important and be weirdly amused by interesting nonsense. If stress-addicts nag you to be more responsible, tell them that your astrologer has authorized you to ignore the pressing issues and wander off in the direction of nowhere in particular. Does that sound like a good plan? It does to me. for now, it’s your sovereign right to be a wise and innocent explorer with nothing much to do but wonder and daydream and play around.
I’m wondering if Virgos’ current propensities for high adventure and rollicking melodrama could generate phenomena that would actually, not just metaphorically, break the internet. to be safe, I suggest you enjoy yourself to the utmost, but not more than the utmost.

Help Me Say Goodbye to Shy
Dear Goodbye to Shy,
Let me start by giving you props. Intimacy can make a person feel pretty naked, literally and figuratively. Bravo for feeling the fear and wanting to go for exploration anyway. This will surely enhance your relationship. Your partner will appreciate your willingness to elevate your bedroom activities despite your reticence. And you’ll get to reap all the benefits, too. Nice. Here are some pointers to help ease your nerves. • Imagine your wildest sex fantasies — all the time. Already think about sex a lot? Take it to the next level. Whenever your mind starts to wander, bring it back to the bedroom and what you’d like to see happen there. Imagine you and your partner exploring all of your fantasies. Think of him when you scrub your body in the shower, wake up in the morning, pump your gas ... By the time you two are ready to get frisky, you’ll be all revved up and ready to go. • Close your eyes and jump. Sometimes our insecurities in the bedroom come from a fear of being seen. If you’re nervous about your body in any way, or if being intimate makes you feel exposed, try closing your eyes. It will offer you a sense of safety. And it will help you focus on your other senses, such as touch — the most important one, when it comes to sex. With your eyes closed, you can give all your attention to how your body feels. • Trust in your relationship. Your man obviously digs you, otherwise he wouldn’t be wanting to up the ante on what sounds like an already tight physical relationship. He’s excited to explore with you. Find confidence and pride in that, and it will help you relax into this new and titillating journey you’re about to go on together. Take that trust a little farther, and share with him some of your own fantasies. Invite him to try something you find naughty and enticing. It will only bring you closer. Good luck, and have fun!
Yours,

While it’s not new to him, it is to me, and even though some of the stuff he suggests makes me uncomfortable, it also turns me on. I’ve always been a shy person, but he makes me want to open up. How do I get over my shyness? Suggestions?
