FRESH AIR Wow, it was great to see the arti­ cle, “Troubles in the Air” in the Jan. 15 edition of Seven Days. The topic - of indoor air pollution is critical, and not just in our offices, but our homes, childrens schools and day­ cares too. Research conducted in 1991 suggested that women who work in the home have a 55 percent higher risk of developing some form of cancer and/or chronic respiratory disease compared to women who work outside of the home... Many of the household products that we all have been purchasing and using over the years contain toxic chemicals that contribute to indoor air pollution, and make some people sick. There are no pre-market safety tests conducted before these products make it on to the store shelves. And to make matters worse, product labels aren’t required to list all of the ingredients, much less their human and environmental health effects. The Consumers’ Healthy Home Center (CHHC), a Vermont based nonprofit, wants to change that. We are working to eliminate the use of toxic chemicals in household prod­ ucts. Towards that end, we will be hiring toxicologists to safety test a variety of household products so that we can recommend the least toxic products to consumers based on science rather than simply the product manufacturer’s label claims.

KILLER INSTINCT There’s enough bile and vitriol in Vicki Pozzebon and Kim Bartell’s letter [Jan. 8], with its familiar themes of Hell, condemnation and retribution, that I wonder if they didn’t also include with it Dug Nap’s drawing with two penciled-in air­ planes (perhaps labeled Vicki and Kim?) flying into the cartoon build­ ings. Their outrage stems from the same impulse that took the real buildings down. Chris Middings

NO NEED TO APOLOGIZE My cartoon [“Down to Earth,” Jan. 8] depicting phallic “new World Trade Center designs” was not about the trade center tragedy, as Vicki Pozzebon and Kim Bartell would have you believe [“Letters,” Jan. 15]. It was about architecture. Thanks for their rant, though. It’s always interesting to hear peoples’ comments. Dug Nap

CULTURE CLASH? With much excitement, I began reading Susan Green’s coverage of 24 Hour Party People, the sensation­ al film detailing the Manchester sound in the 80s [“Flick Chick,” Jan. 15]. To the horror of Clash fans everywhere, Green inexplicably associates the recently departed Joe Strummer with the Manchester scene, thereby linking punk with hallucinogenic pop, and conde­ scends by describing punk as a youthful aesthetic. Firsdy, Strummer abhorred all things pop, which ultimately led to his split with Mick Jones and the demise of the only band that mat­ ters. Mentioning Strummer and the Manchester sound in the same sen­ tence is like comparing Charlotte Church to Ozzy Osbourne: The only thing they have in common is nationality. Second, punk was a social movement, birthed by an impoverished and increasingly polar­ ized working class. Would any selfrespecting music columnist refer to The Ramones or Sex Pistols as youthful aesthetes? Green also erro­ neously describes the career of New Order, which spans more than two decades and featured a critically acclaimed release in October 2001, as “short-lived.” Psst... they’re still active.

Point. Where are you, supporters? I know you listen, otherwise it would­ n’t be so hard to be the tenth caller in regards to winning tickets to a contest. I just feel bad that those who do speak in response to Susans articles only speak in a negative vein... WNCS was born 25+ years ago and evolved into The Point. My oldest daughter was born about the same time. WNCS and The Point has been a staple in my family’s daily diet ever since its smiling face

appeared on the airwaves those 25 years ago. What about speaking to Steve Zind or Greg Hooker? I agree the station has changed; we all have. There is nothing in this world as constant as change. My child grew up, but I would never close my ears to my child’s cry. Changes come and they go. In all my years I’ve learned that you either roll with them or get swallowed up by them. I say, “Let’s roll with them and grow with them and try not to

become the bump in the road.” Either be part of the problem or part of the solution... If you don’t like how things are, then talk to the peo­ ple, call The Point and voice your opinion. This is Vermont; we can still do that here. We are an independent people. Do you get my drift? Scott Manning

EYE, EYE! I read with interest Pamela Polston’s article about LASIK sur­

gery [“The Vision Thing,” Jan. 15]. For years I’ve toyed with the idea of going under the knife (in this case, laser), freeing myself from contacts, saline solutions, glasses and such. I share Polston’s vision history and also suffer the never-quite-clear vision due to astigmatism. What shocked me was how she so accurately pinpointed a characteristic of the not-so-visually-blessed... with­ drawing from the world becomes sec­ ond nature when you can’t see clearly. I didn’t realize how true this was for me until I read Polston’s words. Looking at myself and how I relate to people... it’s as though a veil of cheesecloth hangs between myself and others, especially strangers. I assumed this had something to do with my personality or upbringing, but reading this article made some­ thing click for me. Thanks for shedding light on more than just the LASIK procedure, but the psycholo­ gy of the poor-sighted as well. Pamela Polston’s straightforward account of her LASIK experience has made me decide to go for it, too. I can live with a few moments of dis­ comfort, a few months of dry eyes and other risks if the tradeoff is a new outlook on the world, and myself. Kelly Arnold

Her description of the situation at WNCS is a prime example of what has been going on in broadcast radio here in New York as well as central Vermont. I was introduced to The Point by my girlfriend, Valerie Adams, who was at the time a WNCS DJ (the Sunday Coffee House). At that time, The Point was a great example of what radio could and should be: a free-form media with few playlists and few restrictions placed on the on-air staff. Though I missed the “glory days” of the station, I still got to hear radio that played a wide variety of music, including cuts other than the ones recommended by the record promoters and labels... It’s a tragedy that radio is being taken over and run by consultants and focus groups rather than by the people who play and listen to the music. Even college radio seems to be headed in the same direction. Radio needs to be for the people who listen to it, not the corpora­ tions who own the stations. With few exceptions, radio in this country is becoming homogenous, with no variety and no life. At least central Vermont still has a commercial Triple A format station that can hopefully return to its rightful place as a unique voice in the world... Jay E. Korman BRONX, N.Y.

o, not our Gov. Jim Douglas? Please, say it ain’t so! Wish we could. You may recall that one of the high­ lights of Diamond Jim Douglas’ budget address last week was a proposal for tax relief for Vermont’s agriculture sector. “I am particularly concerned about the effects of property taxation on our strug­ gling family farmers,” declared our new Republican governor. “So I propose that we eliminate the statewide property tax on all agriculture and forest land and buildings enrolled in the current-use program, saving farmers and forest land owners $3.3 mil­ lion each year.” Vermont’s Current Use Program pro­ vides property tax relief for landowners who work their land, plow their fields and harvest their timber. Their property gets taxed at its use value, rather than its value as marketable real estate. But rookie Gov. Douglas proposed going an extra mile. Such a sweet guy! A compassionate conservative if ever there was one! But, before you get all mushy about Ma and Pa getting a little help with the herd, think again. Seven Days has learned that one of the needy recipients of Diamond Jim’s pro­ posed tax break for Vermont landowners in the current-use program will be multimil­ lionaire Andrew Fastnow, the former chief financial officer for Enron. Mr. Fastnow is facing 140 years in prison if convicted on fraud, money laun­ dering and conspiracy. He is currently free on a $5 million bond. Enron Andy also happens to own a cabin on 68 wooded acres in Norwich, Vermont. According to the Norwich Town Clerk, Enron Andy already gets his property taxes

teg^ of George W. Bush. “Tax cuts for the rich” appear to be the name of his game. Swell. First Class Stonewalling! — Kudos to Ed & Louise for Monday’s textbook exam­ ple of political stonewalling. Fletcher Allen CEO Ed Colodny and Trustee Chairman Louise McCarren didn’t give an inch to Congressman Bemie Sanders and his Fletcher Allen Task Force. All the task force wanted was to hear Ed & Louise say they would ask their board to consider adding a couple non-trustees to the new committee reviewing hospital “governance.” Ed & Louise refused. Ditto for requests that the Fletcher Allen board abide by the state’s open-meet­ ing law. The Mary Fanny wagons were tightly circled. Openness will not be tolerated on Hospital Hill. Ed & Louise agreed to noth­ ing. Absolutely nothing! Deanwatch 2004 — Our favorite presi­ dential hopeful is everywhere this week and everyone’s talking about Howard Dean, including leading scribes of the right wing like George Will, Morton Kondrake and Tucker Carlson. It’s proof that Howard Dean, M.D. has succeeded in Phase One of his longshot run for the White House. He’s established a secure beachhead. And we’re happy to report that Yale University, Ho-Ho’s alma mater, has finally added Dr. Dean to its official list of “Yale Notables.” It’s an alphabetical list of several hundred notables with Yale connections, including the last three men elected presi­ dent of the United States. Ho Dean would make it four Bulldogs in a row!

cut by about 50 percent because his woods are in current use. That reduces the assess­ ed value of Mr. Fastnow’s 68 acres by about 50 percent. Instead of paying $8000 a year in property taxes, Fastnow only pays $4109. Now Jim Douglas wants to give Enron Andy an even bigger tax break. No doubt, it’s the first good news Enron’s for­ mer CFO has heard in a long time. Even indicted millionaires appreciate tax relief, you know. Thanks, Jim. Interesting. You know, it’s been reported that Mr. Douglas proudly claims to have been a pro­ tege of former Gov. Richard Snelling. But we simply can’t imagine King Richard ailing out an indicted Enron millionaire, ct is, in tfrelast three-weeks, Diam< FJfm«has been acting more like a pro-

The Yale administration isn’t alone in waking up to its overlooked 1971 graduate. On Monday the Yale Daily News did a fea­ ture on Dean titled: “Presidency beckons for a Yale prankster.” Oh, what a wild and crazy guy he was as a college boy in New Haven. Let’s be honest, it was a wild and crazy time to be alive. The Daily tracked down a few of HoHo’s old buds. Turns out Dean was a big Beatles fan. The Magical Mystery Tour album was young Howard’s favorite. . “[Dean] loved the album, ran around singing it all the time, and seemed to land on ‘I Am the Walrus,’” Bill Kerns ’71 said. “When you ran into him singing ‘I Am the INSIDE TRACK »

Welcome Home Vermont State Police charged Stewart Fuller, 41, of Cavendish with burglarizing his neighbors home, then holding a three-day yard sale to sell about $30,000 worth of goods. The sale netted $347.90, police said. The investi­ gation began after Roger and Shirley Labelle returned from a two-month absence to find their home ransacked and various neighbors in possession of their property. The couple said they thought Fuller was looking after their dog while they were away.

iano Forte y the time former interim president Ed Colodny left the University of Vermont, it seemed everyone was singing his praises. The chorus of approval now has piano accompaniment. Before his departure, Colodny played a key role in the acquisition of a new Steinway. A regular concert goer, Colodny apparently noticed the old piano was worn out and diplomatically asked music department chair David Neiweem if there was “any energy behind acquiring a new instrument in the Recital Hall. That’s typical Ed. His antennae are always out.” Neiweem continues, “The university com­ munity had expressed an interest in making him a gift of gratitude for his year of serv­ ice. Ed asked that any gift thanking him be given toward the purchase of a Steinway D — a 9-foot concert grand.” Colodny and his wife Nancy made an initial contribu­ tion, then took on a fundraising effort to the tune of approximately $80,000. Neiweem was among the profs who selected the piano from the Steinway factory in New York. It arrived on campus the day before a scheduled concert featuring the gold-medal winner of the prestigious Van Cliburn piano competition. Prior to his perform­ ance, Lane Series director Natalie Neuert brought Stanislav Ioudenitch to hear the piano during a keyboard class. “I thought he was going to play it, but he just stood in the back, listening,” recalls Neuert. “He turned to me and said, ‘You’re so lucky. This is a superb instrument.’ He was just thrilled with it.” So are the university’s music faculty and students. They’re playing a free thank-you concert on Sunday at 3 p.m. in the UVM Recital Hall. There’s still time to get in on the new action — a few tickets are still available — by calling the music department at 656-7776. Colodny will definitely be there. Talk about leaving on a positive note.

Men of American Ballet Theatre,” a “Great Performances” documentary airing Monday at 10 p.m. on Vermont Public Television. The camera focuses on Cuba’s Jose Manuel Carreno, Spanish-born Angel Corella, Vladimir Malakhov of the Ukraine and Wisconsin’s own Ethan Stiefel, and follows each man back to his ancestral homeland. The telecast concludes with the foursome dancing together in a piece choreographed for the occasion by Mark Morris. Scenes from the rehearsal for the seven-minute number appear throughout and tie the show together. “Born to Be Wild” offers rare glimpses of Alicia Alonso at the Ballet Nacional de Cuba and the Bolshoi’s Sofia Golovkina. Even Castro gets a cameo.

closed Burlington’s Phoenix Gallery last week, interrupting an exhibit of contempo­ rary Chinese art on loan from a Boston gallery. Water seeped through the newly renovated building at the corner of College Street and South Winooski Avenue, but “no art work got damaged,” says gallery manag­ er Liza McGiff. “We had to take it off the walls and put it in the basement.” She expects the Phoenix to justify its name and be back up and running by Friday.

Last Wednesday, the Boston Globe ran a feature on the farm that cap­ tured the unique ambience of Vogler’s twice-weekly pizza nights. It’s fast food with a French flair, right down to the Charles 'Trenet tunes while you wait. To a Boston reporter, Charlotte is “an hour southwest of Smugglers’ Notch ski resort” . . .

FiN^LLy. New ThAT doesn’t MMte youjPeeL Good

BY DAVID DIEFENDORF THE PUZZLE: As you can guessfrom her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre­ dict. Her preferences changefrom one week to the next. This week, as always, the things she likes (shown in CAPITAL letters) allfollow a secret rule. Can you figure out what it is? (Note: 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.) When one of her friends asks for a favor, Fannie says WHY ME? She likes to hang-glide off EL CAPITAN but always lands in guano. In Georgia she speaks Russian, but back in Georgia she says YOU A L L When her big man asks for a special favor she responds with AYE, CAPTAIN. She'd rather be an EX-WIFE than s till be married to "Potty." Fannie once ate a SEA CUCUMBER, which tasted good but gave her sprue. She laughed when Rodney ate the CUE BALL, but it gave him a blockage. When a priest flashes her on the street, she shouts OH MY GOD.

eeing R ed he dark-haired man standing on the curb in front of the tattoo parlor was tall and rangy. As I pulled over to pick him up, I saw he was wearing only a black Tshirt under his thin suede jacket, its col­ lar turned up. Despite the cold snap, which seems to have superseded the usual January thaw, the guy appeared impervious. There’s a certain breed of Vermont man, I thought, that is just plain tough. Easing down next to me and flashing a small pianos worth of white teeth, he said, “Where’s the shotgun, Bubba? I’m ready to roll.” “The shotgun’s in the trunk,” I replied, chuckling. I like characters... though there was a vaguely sinister tone in this guy’s voice. Around his left wrist I noticed a tattoo of blue barbwire. It looked fresh. “We’ll just leave it back there if it’s all right with you. Where we goin’?” “We goin to Taft’s Corner,” he said, and named one of the new condos just east of the driving range. There’s been so much home development in the area that the owner of the range has had to erect walls of netting to prevent errant golfers from beaning the new neighbors.

This cracked up the guy immensely, and I laughed weakly along with him. I had the impression this was a joke he regularly pulled out — from the Pimp’s Jokebook, presumably. “Listen, man,” he said. “This is what I do, but it’s not my whole life. I’m tak­ ing business classes at CCV.” I’ve heard about women who take up hooking to put themselves through col­ lege, but a pimp? I didn’t know what to think about all this. It’s common for customers, often out-of-town business­ men, to inquire about prostitutes — something oblique like, “Where can you find a girl in this town?” You’d think I’d have some solid information on the sub­ ject. Aren’t cabbies known for that? Not this cabbie. I don’t know if it’s naivet^ or my distaste for this particular dark side of life. As I thought about it, I realized that maybe I’d been uncon­ sciously making it my business not to know about the red-light underworld of Burlington. Maybe I just haven’t wanted to know. “I got a bunch of girls working for me,” my passenger went on. “They need security and I provide it. It’s that sim­ ple.”

ve heard about women who take up hooking to it themselves through college, but a pimp? “The night’s chill,” he continued, “so I’m taking the opportunity to check on one of my ladies.” “Really?” I said as we climbed the Main Street hill. “Most men have a devil of a time contending with just one, doncha think?” “Right,” he said, his voice suddenly becoming level. “It so happens I got many ladies to contend with. I’m a pimp.” Conversations with customers are an enjoyable facet of my job. The easy flow, the give and take comes naturally to me. But every so often, a piece of informa­ tion I hear just stops my mind dead in its tracks. I had no idea what to do with the tidbit this guy had just launched my way. Idly glancing over to the left side of Williston Road, I saw that the frigid temperatures had entirely fogged up the windows of the Dunkin’ Donuts. Though quite a few cars were parked in front, I couldn’t make out any move­ ment in the store, just the eerie pastel illumination of neon signage. The struc­ ture glowed like a big, old ice shanty at night, its denizens bent on sugar and caffeine instead of fish. “So now I’m not sure you’re being serious,” I said nervously. “Oh, I’m serious. I’m a pimp. Do you want to see my card?” “Okay, I do know you don’t have a card in that profession.”

“Whatever, man,” I said, wanting to cap the discussion. My disdain was pal­ pable, however, and I could see it trig­ gered him. “Hey, if a guy wants to pay for it, what’s the problem? This girl I’m seeing tonight, she has a client who shells out 200 bucks to go down on her1 That’s easy money, man, and nobody gets hurt.” I didn’t agree that nobody gets hurt. That statement doesn’t hold true if you look beyond the most superficial level of life. I mean, what about the souls of the two participants? And even if I’m wrong about them, what about the man who takes the cut? Making your living off the debasement of another’s sexuality can’t be right. But I wasn’t going to argue the point. Yes, this was a pimp with a conscience. Why else would he be attempting to justify his work to me? The reason I said nothing was that I’ve learned to avoid debate with people I can’t find it within myself to respect. Plus, the guy was scary — jovial on the outside and vio­ lent just below the surface. I could sense it. We arrived at “his girl’s” condo, and he paid me the fare and tipped me well. As he was closing the door he bent down and said, “Take it easy, cabbie. Drive slow and drink milk.” “I sure will,” I replied. “That’s me to aT .” ®

D«rr Cecil, lam a history teacher at LaPortc High School in LaPorte, Indiana (you know, that place Stanley Changnon said had the worst weather in the United States). Anyway, my students and I would like to know how we can become UN weapons inspectors and how much the job pays. We would also like to know if you get benefits and get to keep those vehicles that they drive around Iraq. Do you getjump­ suits with your name on them like the Ghostbusters had? Thanksfor your time. I useyour dope in class all the time. Your pal, R.J. Otis Let’s chill on using dope in class, R.J. — you don’t want to set a bad example. As for getting jobs as weapons inspectors, you guys are a little late — the UN Monitoring, Verification and Inspection Commission (UNMOVIC) started hiring three years ago, when it appointed Hans Blix executive chairman. Not that you would’ve had much chance of landing his job. While I don’t wish to deprecate the skills required to be a history teacher in LaPorte, Indiana, Dr. Blix was director general of the International Atomic Energy Agency from 1981 to 1997 and has a cool Swedish accent besides. Then again, many claim Blix was chosen in the belief that he’d go easier on Iraq than the guy the U.S. and UK wanted, Rolf Ekeus. If the goal was not to find anything, why couldn’t the UN have appointed a bunch of high school students and saved some bucks? Never fear, you may still have a chance. Though the weapons inspectors have already been hired, many chal­ lenging and remunerative positions with the UNMOVIC team remain available, and I venture to say that the fact that you and your students have a pretty low international profile won’t be held against you — on the contrary. As of this writing UNMOVIC gumshoes have had little success finding the smoking gun that everybody hopes President Bush will provide before he

sends in the shock troops. Let it slip that you’ve spent the last few semesters frisking LPHS students for weapons and drugs (hey, I’ve been to LaPorte), and tl folks at UNMOVIC’s human resources department ai bound to think: Whoa, here’s our boy. As for your stu dents, just put down that they’re all experienced hall monitors. What types of jobs are available? Check out “empl ment and training” at www.un.org/Depts/unmovic/ f list. On the day I looked, I saw openings for a comm cations officer, two information manager assistants an half dozen other personnel. The job descriptions don' say anything about jumpsuits, but the lowliest job lisi pays $51,225, and a “transport officer” pulls down a i $109,792 (which will go a lot further if you’re station in Baghdad). I don’t know what they’re paying histor teachers these days, but I’d get that resume dusted ofll toot sweet. Maybe you and the class were hoping for somethi little sexier than “information manager assistant,” though. Browsing further, I found the following notii “UNMOVIC is looking for experts with the followin experience: Missiles — Degree in engineering; experi in missile design, manufacturing and testing, familial with machine tools related to missile manufacturing, experience with liquid or solid propellant manufactui and testing.” They also want experts in chemical and biological weapons. Sound a little more like it? You might have to finesse the part about an engineering degree, but surely some of the kids have taken shop. As for experience in missile design — look, Cecil went to high school. Let me tell you about the senio stunt the boys and I pulled off. OK, it involved weat balloons, not missiles, but for 75 dollars you can’t ex the V-2 program. All I’m saying is, if I were facing a ning and devious opponent and could have either a bunch of paper-pushing eggheads or a crew of high school students experienced in, how shall I say, praci munitions design, I know who I’d want on my team As it is, it’s not like UNMOVIC is hiring Wernhi von Braun. Controversy erupted recently when it cal to light that one UN weapons analyst, Harvey John “Jack” McGeorge of Woodbridge, Virginia, had foul a “pansexual” S & M club called Black Rose, taught courses on sex slaves and bondage techniques involv ropes and choking devices and served as an officer in Leather Leadership Conference. His resume lists no cialized engineering degree, just an associate’s degree security management from a community college. Nonetheless, Blix declined McGeorge’s offer to resig perhaps feeling that leadership is leadership, and tha UNMOVIC could use a take-charge kind of guy. Si if there’s a place at the UN for this character, there’s place for you. — CECIL AD

Walrus’ you knew he was identify­ ing with it and laughing at him­ self in the same breath. We all sang along with Howard, buzzed by his phenomenal energy.” And, perhaps, buzzed by the smoke from a leafy substance? Old classmates recalled Deans “magnetic personality,” his “sense of humor” and the “glint in his eye.” They remembered that Howard read The New York Times every day, was a scrappy football player, and was lousy at card games because he was “too expressive and gave away his hand.” Under “future occupation” in the 1971 Yale yearbook Dean simply wrote “living.” Far out. He’s succeeded so far. “[Dean] was famous for say­ ing, ‘Let’s go to New York right now.’ And everyone would get in the car and go to New York, even though it was midnight,” said David Berg ’71, an associate clinical professor of psychiatry at Yale. “He had a brother in North Carolina, and one night he said, ‘Let’s go visit Charlie right now.’ He jumped in the car and drove to North Carolina and the amaz­ ing thing was that he convinced other people to follow.” Berg also spilled the beans on a little news scoop that, until now, eluded the Vermont Press. He told the Yale paper that, back

out.” But this one was different. He quickly recognized the voices were those of two fellow House members. “The conversation was ex­ tremely friendly,” said Brooks. Rep. Rusten sounded quite “chummy” with Rep. Hube. “It was the kind of conversation I’d have with a fellow Democrat,” said Brooks. “Several kinds of things were intimated,” he added, saying the “topic” of the cell phone conversation involved him. Asked what he meant by that, Brooks the Democrat explained he would be affected personally by who won the upcoming race for Speaker of House, Republican Walter Freed or Democrat John Tracy. Startled by what he heard on his scanner, Brooks told Seven Days he immediately picked up his phone and called Rep. Rus­ ten. Brooks told him he’d just heard him speaking to Hube and noted it was a very chummy con­ versation. Rusten denied he was cutting any kind of political deal or trad­ ing his vote in the Speaker’s race for a choice committee assign­ ment. And the member from Halifax asked the member from Montpelier if he’d heard any kind of deal being cut. Brooks said then, and told Seven Days this week, that he had not. Rep. Rusten told Seven Days

during the controversy over civil unions in 2000, Dean took to wearing a bulletproof vest. “It’s true,” said Dean’s press secretary Susan Allen. Sweet Sue told Seven Days the governor had received a number of death threats from opponents of civil unions. Ms. Allen said Gov. Dean wore the bulletproof vest on about three occasions when he spoke at public forums during the height of the battle. Nothing like death threats and a bulletproof vest to build charac­ ter and fortitude, eh? Political Eavesdropping — It’s a political story with a technolog­ ical hook and it reinforces the adage that one should never, ever say anything on a cell phone one doesn’t want the whole world to hear. Seven Days has learned that one Wednesday afternoon last month, when the race for Speaker of the House was up in the air, one veteran Democrat overheard a friendly phone conversation between the soon-to-be Repub­ lican whip, Rep. Rick Hube of Londonderry, and Rep. Rob Rusten, a Halifax Democrat. Rep. Francis Brooks (DMontpelier) picked up the call on his police/fire radio scanner. Francis, you see, is an on-call Montpeculiar firefighter. Usually when his scanner picks up a phone conversation, Francis told Seven Days, he just “blocks it

this week that he and Hube were talking about Act 60. Both men have ski towns in their districts. He said he never asked Hube, a Freed lieutenant, for anything in terms of a committee assignment. In fact, said Rep. Rusten, he did not decide' who to vote for in the Speaker’s race until after Christmas. Asked who he did vote for, Rusten replied, “It’s time to move on.” As for Rep. Brooks eavesdrop­ ping on his phone conversation, Rusten said, “I certainly trust Francis.” He said that he accepts the fact that the eavesdropping was “purely by coincidence or accident.” Rusten said he has “no negative feelings” about what happened. Rep. Hube told Seven Days that when he first heard Rep. Brooks had listened in on his phone conversation with Rusten, he was “a little disturbed about the invasion of privacy.” Hube, the new GOP whip, said he has since “had a conversation” with Brooskie about it. “It’s done. It’s over,” said Hube on Tuesday. “Let’s move forward.’ While Rusten the Democrat won’t say who he voted for in the secret ballot for House Speaker, we do know that Freed the Republican won. We also know that six or seven Democrats crossed over and voted for him. And we know that Freed subse­ quently picked Rusten to be the

vice-chairman of the powerful Ways and Means Committee. Those are the facts. Interesting. Meanwhile, Rep. Brooks told Seven Days that he subsequently became concerned about the legality of what he had done. He said he sought and received a legal opinion from the Legislative Councils office. The preliminary opinion he received indicated that there was “no problem.” But subsequently, said the Montpelier firefighter, he’s been told that in 1994 a federal law was passed that made listening to a phone conversation in such a manner illegal. The “caveat,” said Brooks, is that scanner manufacturers were required to notify owners that after 1994 it was illegal. In addi­ tion, he said, they stopped mar­ keting scanners that could pick up cell phone calls. Brooks told Seven Days he purchased his scanner at Radio Shack sometime before 1994. And, he said, he never received a subsequent warning from Radio Shack about the law change. “Federal law,” said Brooks, “says that one has to break the law knowingly. Everybody agrees at this point that I had no reason to know.” Ignorance is bliss, eh? House Backs Roe! — Last week the Vermont House surP lW Pi^epkasnccg^b^^ting, by a 2-1 margin in favor of a res­ olution supporting abortion rights. It was the largest margin of victory in three attempts. For three years running, Rep. Ann Seibert (D-Norwich) has introduced a pro-Roe v. Wade res­ olution each January to mark the anniversary of the landmark 1973 Supreme Court decision that upheld a womans right to choose a safe and legal abortion. In 2001, the first year of Republican control under Speaker Walter Freed, Queen Ann’s Roe resolution passed 83-51. Last year, the right wing was ready and dug in its heels. A floor fight erupted as Rep. Tom Depoy (R-Rutland) and Rep. Kurt Wright (R-Burlington) proposed an amendment sup­ porting parental notification. After several hours of heated floor debate, the Depoy/Wright amendment was shot down and the Roe v. Wade resolution was adopted on a vote of 77-53. Last week, Seiberts resolution marking the 30th anniversary of Roe v. Wade hit the House floor. Only Rep. Nancy Sheltra (RDerby) rose to express her oppo­ sition. The religious right had decided not to put up a fight this year. Apparently they counted noses. The resolution sailed through on a 92-46 vote. Kwik Stop Kurt voted for it. but Tommy “Guns” Depoy was noticeably absent from his seat when the roll was called. Maybe he was outside adjusting the roof on his red BMW convertible?

Warhol was also a magnet for woman wannabes: transvestites Candy Darling, Holly Woodlawn and Jackie Curtis, later immortalized in song by former Undergrounder Lou Reeds “Walk on the Wild Side.” Celebrities like Mick Jagger, John Lennon, Bob Dylan and Liza Minnelli also made the pilgrimage to Andyland. Even more than talent, however, glamour was paramount in Warhol’s universe. The goal was notoriety. “We wanted attention,” Ultraviolet says in Super­ star. “Fame was the cosmic glue of The Factory.”

Warhol fostered a voyeuristic atmosphere of sex­ ual liberation and gender blurring fueled by ram­ pant drug use. His high society tumbled out of The Factory and into local hot spots like Max’s Kansas City, where paparazzi were waiting to snap their photos for the vicarious pleasure of an awed public. Although emblematic of the ’60s, Warhol’s coterie toyed with more decadence than the average hippie at a Human Be-In. Yet, he continued to work tirelessly, and successfully, to become a semi­ nal force in the art world. The atmosphere at The Factory changed after the 1968 shooting. “Everything became too busi­ nesslike,” Malanga says. “There was a lot of internal politics.” A year later he and Warhol started Interview magazine, initially a film journal that Malanga co­ edited. But after a journey to Europe, he began to distance himself from the old gang. It was time to reconnect with his own path. Malanga then built a dual career as a published poet and professional shutterbug, with a detour in the mid-1980s as the photo archivist for New York City’s Department of Parks and Recreation. He had already demonstrated an aptitude for such organiza­ tional detail in 1961, when he tracked down manu­ scripts for a university collection of Beat Genera­ tion writers. Now often “on the road” himself, Malanga is a globe-trotting artist — without a whip. Gerard Malanga's creativity surfaced years before his fateful meeting with Andy Warhol. The only child of a stay-at-home mom and a father who sold dry goods, Malanga says he “discovered his imagination” at age 11. That’s when he watched Citizen Kane, the Orson Welles master­ piece, for seven nights in a row on television. “It hit a nerve,” he recalls. “I learned that I had sensi­ tivity, I had a soul. It really anticipated my becom­ ing a poet.” Soon after, Malanga began playing with images. Inspired by a book of historic New York City pho­ tos, he took pictures with his little Brownie Hawkeye camera while riding on the now-defunct Third Avenue El train. His parents encouraged him to take after-school art classes. While still a teenager, he and his girlfriend were among the “regulars” dancing each weekday after­ noon on “The Big Beat,” DJ Alan Freed’s “Amer­ ican Bandstand”-like television show on ABC in 1959. That broadcast experience may have given him a taste for the spotlight, presaging the Warhol crowd’s obsession with “15 minutes of fame.” Malanga flunked out after a year at Ohio’s University of Cincinnati, where he majored in graphic design. But back in New York, he won a full scholarship from Staten Island’s Wagner College by repeating his freshman year and earning straight As. Academia quickly gave way to artistic exploration, however, when his temporary job with Warhol turned into the odyssey of a lifetime. Malanga is one of the lucky survivors of that proverbial long, strange trip. Many of his colleagues died too early of substance abuse and other unnatu­ ral causes. “I tended to live a life of moderation... of sorts,” Malanga explains in Superstar. “Perhaps that’s why I’m talking here now.” He looks back at the Warhol era with admira­ tion. “Today, it’s all very conformist and homoge­ nized,” Malanga observes on the phone. “But in the 1960s we had an age of innocence that was totally revolutionary and mind-expanding and tumul­ tuous.” ®

op culture has a mixed track record when it comes to depicting the hard-knock lives of American industrial townies. For every scathing Silkwood there’s a silly “Laverne & Shirley,” a sappy An Officer and a Gentle­ man and a just plain stupid “Allentown.” STORY That goes for the song and the music ERIK video. ESCKILSEN This makes Beaver Falls — written by Vermont playwright Gary Moore and cur­ IMAGE rently being staged by Lost Nation Theater SUSAN — all the more refreshing. But the play is LA N G no anti-capitalist scree. It’s a story — and a compelling one. Beaver Falls In its telling, Beaver Falls conjures a and Gunslinger, more poignant portrait of factory-town life Jan. 23 - Feb. 9, than any number of productions like produced by Norma Rae or Flashdance. W hat’s more, Lost Nation Theater, City the simplicity of the play contrasts intriguHall Arts Center, ingly with the complex lives of its charac­ Montpelier. ters. In fact, there’s only one actor — LNT co-artistic director Kim Bent — in the whole show. He narrates this verse poem in 13 scenes set to the live musical accompa­ niment of keyboardist Fred Wilber. The story begins in I960, in Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, a steel town hard by the banks of the Beaver River. There’s Sherry, a baton-twirling local gal; Lanny, her football-tossing high school sweetheart; and Slim, a mysterious, quick-tempered pool shark. When Sherry becomes the teenage mother of Lanny’s son, his heavy drinking begins, along with his domestic abuse. One night, Sherry makes her Grey­ hound escape and begins a new life near Philadelphia. She supports herself and her son cleaning a pool hall, earning table time to improve her own game. Soon she’s shooting pool for money, setting in motion events that could reunite her with the men in her life — one of whom she doesn’t even know about yet. * Projected black-and-white photographs of smokestacks and scene titles establish the play’s time and place. A haze of smoke

drifts across the stage throughout the per­ formance — a hint of sooty town air and i the barrooms where so much of the action < takes place. Even without these spare production ! elements, however, this lean work would likely compel interest from the opening lines to the last beat. The story comes to vivid life through language — inventive rhyming and deft descriptions that evoke , the volatility and entropy of life on the margins. Moore, a professor and dean at Montpelier’s Woodbury College, deserves major “props” from the slam-poetry and hip-hop crowd for his lyrical stylings, which seem drawn from jazz poetry: And by the time trees were black above the\ rusty snow Lannyd lost his job and guys he bullied in school drove by and\ cheered as he staggered, mutterin’, in the street­ lights’glow.

And when families in Fords passed the sorry show Mom would turn away, but Dad would \ say to little Billy: "See, that’s the kind o f thing that can hap\ pen to you i f you don’t do what you’re supposed to do-"

While the narrative is linear and well- r plotted, Beaver Falls is also a mood piece. Wilber’s synthesizer gives Bent’s narration a dark edge, musically tracking the actor’s shifts in tone to create a unified whole. Bent’s swaggering and stumbling suggest a | body being knocked around, like a billiard ball, by all that life throws out. “Made in U.S.A.” may not mean the same thing it once did, and today a town like Beaver Falls might be a desolate place indeed. But in Moore’s play, the American Dream does not go down without a fight. The American Dream — in particular, that old saw about manifest destiny — fig'

To say what the play is about, at least er one performance, is a challenge — rhaps by design. Dorn, who died of can­ cer in 1999, is known for producing multi-layered verse in a postmodern vein, and Gunslinger has been described as an amination both of the idealized Amerin West and of humanity’s place in the g, wide world. Bent’s Wild West costume, Keenan’s gjuitar strumming and a wooden cactus cutout indeed suggest a ride on the range, t ut the text explores much more philo­ sophical frontiers. There’s a simulated siloon brawl and some talk of heading out o Las Vegas. But Bent’s Gunslinger — c ne of several roles he plays — wrangles r tore often with such heady concepts as t ie nature of mortality, identity and which i:; more fundamental, time or space. ’ Gunslinger is a postmodern play in the spnse that it makes frequent reference to other texts concerned with the composit on of the universe. German philosopher plartin Heidegger’s name crops up, as does t tat of French anthropologist Claude Levi- trauss. Gunslinger is basically “Guns noke” for the post-doctorate crowd. While a glossary in the program explains some of the allusions, ideas still \yhiz by like bullets in a shootout. The lari­ s' uage is briskly paced, ricocheting from t ie Gunslinger to the narrator to the borcello madam to a talking horse. Keenan’s nmsical accompaniment, though skillful, sometimes makes the narrative more diffi­ cult to follow. Yet those moments when the play elakes most sense to the uninitiated provide a good many laughs. As he riffs gleeI illy on the meaning of life, Bent tosses I is body around the stage like a lariat, s dking classic cowboy poses on Keenan’s yusical cues. If a touch of mental saddle soreness I ngers when the sun sets on Gunslinger, I ie play is still kind of a hoot. Its pairing l rith Beaver Falls makes for an enjoyable lin in g exploring the frontiers of what 1 leater is, and can be. (Z)

Why can’t Vermont’s P MTsse;

Late on election eve — early in

the morning after, actually —: Rep. John Tracy looked tired. The Burling­ ton Democrat chatted quiedy with fellow politicians and staffers at the party’s celebration at the Sheraton Hotel, analyzing the results of the evening. The results, and the mood, were mixed. Democrats had made unexpectedly strong gains in the House and solidi­ fied their majority in the Senate. But those victories were tempered by the losses of the party’s two top candi­ dates, gubernatorial hopeful Douglas Racine and lieutenant governor candi­ date‘ •Peter s defeat ■ ■ •Shumlin. ' • ... •;'Shumlin’ .' ■• was particularly tough for some to can swallow. The winner, Ri Brian Dubie, had gotten roughly the same 41 percent of votes he’d garnered two years earlier, when Racine easily bested him. But this time Progressive Anthony Pollina was in the race, and he got almost 25 percent of the ballots cast with a populist, liberal message. Shumlin, a moderate Democrat, won

32 percent. Alone, either man likely would have beaten Dubie. Together, they elected him. “We can’t keep doing this to our­ selves,” Tracy muttered. The Progressives have become a major political party and a force to be reckoned with in Vermont politics. But that success has come, in some areas, at the expense of Democrats. The two parties are both battling over the same turf: Vermont’s political left. The fight has been at times both pub­ lic and bitter. “Most people in this country, even more so in Vermont, are on the politi­ cal spectrum in the center or left of center,” says Burlington Mayor Peter Clavelle, a Progressive. “Yet we have a Republican in the White House, Republican control of the [U.S.] Senate and House and numerous state houses, including Vermont. W hat’s this about?” he asks, then offers an answer to his own question. “It’s about the fact that those of us in the center and left of center have been fractured,” Clavelle says. “And

the right-wingers are laughing all the way to state capitols, Washington, city halls. It’s really critical that we figure out how to come together... how to bring people together around a ‘smallp’ progressive agenda that addresses the needs of ordinary people. “If we don’t do so, we ll allow the squabbles of the left to yield control of government at all levels to the right wing,” Clavelle predicts. The rift in the left is easily ex­ plained, says Frank Bryan, a professor in the University of Vermont’s politi­ cal science department. Three parties are competing in a two-party system. Unlike proportional representation systems common in Europe, where voters cast ballots for a political party and see that party get a number of seats in the government equal to the percentage of the electorate they cap­ tured, the American political system is winner-take-all. In a proportional system, there are usually numerous smaller, more ideo­ logically narrow parties. After the elec­ tion, they compromise to form coali­

tions in the legislative body, power in the new governmei it. system lets candidates stick i o positions, however extreme phe

large percentage of issues,” Bryan notes. “In America, most of us don’t go in the ballot booth with a candi­ date we really like. We go in with a candidate who’s a compromise for us.” The two-party system does have advantages, Bryan adds, notably its stability. Coalition governments dis­

ed by the national Republican and Democratic parties make building a viable third party extremely difficult. Micah Sifry, author of Spoiling jfor a Fight, a book about third parties in America, agreed that the major par­

ties have carved up what he calls a “duopoly” in the U.S. political scene. He pointed to election rules in many states that discourage third parties. Siffy, a former editor for the pro­ gressive opinion journal The Nation, now works as a senior analyst for Public Campaign, a non-partisan group devoted to reforming cam­ paigns to reduce the influence of bigmoney donations. He says the two major parties have been drifting to the right, leaving the poor, women and minorities increasingly disenchanted with the system and unwilling to vote. “The whole system of voter regis­ tration [making voters register well in advance of elections] is set up to dis­ courage occasional voters,” Siffy says. These are the people “who usually sit out elections but who might get excit­ ed about a maverick candidate.” Siffy ranks Vermont as one of the top 10 states in terms of how friendly its elections are to third-party candi­ dates and how well received such movements are. But such movements still face an uphill fight. »

One group that has managed in Vermont is the Progressive Party, whose roots can be traced back to the old Liberty Union Party. Founded in the 1970s, the socialist Liberty Union Party pre­ sented an unknown politician named Bernard Sanders as its 1972 gubernatorial nominee. His 2175 votes comprised just over 1 percent in that race. Throughout the decade, Sanders was a perennial Liberty Union presence in statewide poli­ tics, running unsuccessfully for governor and U.S. senator. In 1981, Sanders won the mayor’s

The Progressives and Democrats have always had an uneasy relationship. While both

to eliminate the Burlington House seat belonging to Progres­ sive Rep. Carina Driscoll — Sanders’ stepdaughter — and knock her out of the Legislature. In the wake of Pollina’s run for lieutenant governor, many Democrats blame him for costing Shumlin the office. So there’s a reservoir of bad blood on both sides as the parties look to the future. It was evident recently at their respective Burlington com­ mittee caucuses to choose candi­ dates for mayor. Rep. David Zuckerman of Burlington, the Progressives’ city chairman, joked about how Democratic presidential hopeful Sen. John Kerry was holding a $ 1000-per-plate fundraising din­ ner the same night. “That’s another difference between us and the other two parties,” Zuckerman said, before remind­ ing the crowd of activists about Driscoll’s fate as they debated whether to endorse Clavelle for a seventh term. The fact that there was a debate at all was a mark of a star­ tling development on Clavelle’s part: He announced his intention to travel across town that same night to the Democratic caucus and seek their nomination as well, a violation of both Progres­ sive Party bylaws and protocol. The debate came down to prag­ matism versus principle. O n one hand, letting Clavelle flout the rules would almost guarantee an electoral victory, advance the party’s political agenda in Bur­ lington, and boost its statewide presence. But breaking the party’s rules against letting candidates run with both the Progressive label and another party’s would under­

mayor. They pointed out that Pollina had cost their party the lieutenant governor’s office and asked why a loyal Democrat should be passed over. But others cited the lieutenant governor’s race as a reason to give Clavelle the nomination: They didn’t want to see a Republican mayor. By a narrow 94-89 margin, Clavelle won the nomination. While the move helps a political party whose members sometimes criticize Democrats as being no better than Republicans, Demo­ crats like Tracy still praised it. At a meeting two weeks ago, the Vermont Progressive Party revised its bylaws, allowing politi­ cians who have run at least once as a Progressive to receive the endorsement of other parties. In fact, according to Vermont Director of Elections Kathy DeWolfe, state law doesn’t allow any political party to restrict the nominations or endorsements its candidates can accept. Prog state chairwoman Martha Abbott says the bylaw change wasn’t a compromise of the party’s principles or message, the core of which she sees as opposition to corporatism and globalism. “Peter’s pursuing a strategy that no one has pursued in our short three-year history [as a major party],” Abbott claims. “I don’t see Peter as diluting the message. He’s always been strong about that, and he’s implemented it in Burlington.” Zuckerman says he “under­ stood” Clavelle’s strategy, but adds, “I’m not excited about it... For me the concern is that we lose a little bit of our distinguish­ ing character in trying to build a

Prof. Frank Bryan says this teat struggle of pragmatism ideology has been the bane m rsus third-party movements ioughout American political s hr Itory. ■

:in the Democrats and progressives compromise? The estion still divides the two par_ es themselves. But as evidence t they can, Dems and Progs th point to the cross-nomina-

n of Clavelle and the decision the Progressive members of ; House to support Tracy in ; bid — ultimately unsuccess- to be House speaker. Tracy says both parties share ny interests and should work ether wherever possible. But iscussions about whether to run andidates against each other in aces where the result could be a .epublican victory should take fece early and at the grassroots svel, he stresses. Garrison Nelson, another )rofessor of political science at J^M , believes the battles beeen Progressives and Demodpts are merely brush wars, not a ill-scale conflict between the rties. He theorizes that itewide elections are largely cided on personal, not party, politics. “Is there antagonism between e two?” Garrison asks. “Yes. it until the Progressive Party i|ns an entire slate of statewide ndidates, there isn’t a schism. iere will be pockets of personsm — Anthony, Bernie — but t|> not a split.” He wonders whether the logressives might ultimately d up merging with the emocrats, as the Farmer Labor I rty did in Minnesota. Publicly, | ogressives flatly reject the idea becoming a wing of the emocratic Party, insisting they fcnt to build their own. But pritely, Progressives concede that I they can’t do that, they will I ffer the fate of other third par| s and be absorbed by one of e larger parties. Mean-while, emocrats like Tracy openly talk getting Progs back into the emocratic fold. ,

One possible solution is

instant runoff voting, a longtime Progressive initiative. It’s a system that allows voters to indicate not only their first choice, but also a second, third or even fourth choice. In the lieutenant governor’s race, many observers believe that most of Pollina’s supporters would have preferred Shumlin to the more conservative Dubie. In that case, their second-choice ballots would have gone to Shumlin after Pollina was elimi­ nated, giving Shumlin the race. For Progressives, the system would eliminate the “spoiler” charge sometimes leveled at them. It might also encourage wavering Democrats to vote Progressive, secure in the knowl­ edge that even if their candidate were eliminated in a runoff, their second-place vote for a Democratic candidate would still prevent a repeat of this year’s lieutenant governor race. But while Democrats are gen­ erally supportive of the concept, they don’t see it as a panacea. “It solves the problem for two or three [statewide] offices” that require a candidate to get more than 50 percent of the vote, says Scudder Parker, Democratic state chairman. “It doesn’t solve the problem in House or Senate races.” Republicans such as Governor James Douglas — who also won with less than 50 percent of the vote — are unlikely to support a measure that could lock them out of the governor’s, lieutenant governor’s and treasurer’s races. And while the friction between the two parties on the left doesn’t distress Republicans, they’re not going to count on it lasting for­ ever. “It’s clearly advantageous if the Progressives and Democrats are fighting, but in the long term we’ve got to fashion a message that appeals to people,” said R.M. “Skip” Vallee, Republican National Committeeman for Vermont. “They’re not always going to have candidates running against each other statewide.” For his part, Pollina rejects any notion of being a “spoiler.” He says he had clear position dif­ ferences with Shumlin on issues like a single-payer health-care system and increasing taxes to pay for social services. “From my point of view, here was a candidate running as a Democrat who was essentially rejecting the things that Demo­ crats stood for,” Pollina says, acknowledging that some of his campaign rhetoric no doubt offended Democrats. “I was not fighting the Democratic Party; I was simply laying out an agenda that I thought would be good for Vermont.” Pollina says he didn’t believe his candidacy set back his party’s agenda. He and other Progs maintain that building a strong third party ultimately will benefit their constituency, even if it means occasionally seeing their initiatives derailed by the election

of opponents like Dubie. “What we’re talking about is longer-term political change — that’s the goal. That’s what you fight for,” Pollina says. “If you’re going to give up your principles « for short-term gain, you’re not necessarily ever going to get where you’re trying to go.” He rejects talk of a split on the left as simplistic, arguing that his candidacy brought many new voters into the process and drew the support of independents and Republicans. Perhaps not surprisingly, Shumlin has a different view. “I’ve had hundreds of liberal­ leaning Democrats who voted for Pollina in the race call me up and apologize for making a mistake,” he says. Shumlin thinks the Progres­ sive Party has benefited from the 11 years of Democratic Gov. Howard Dean’s moderate leader­ ship, and that having a Republican in office will provide more incentive for Democrats and Progressives to work togeth­ er. But he dismisses the notion that the Progs can ever be a majority party. “Moderate, independent vot­ ers will always be the swing vot­ ers in Vermont,” Shumlin says. “Anthony Pollina will never get enough liberals to be elected... he peaked at about 25 percent.” Shumlin adds that the 60 percent of voters who cast ballots for him or Pollina were a mix of liberal and moderate voters. “You need a candidate that can not only get the left wing of Vermont excited and engaged, you also need a candidate who can make independent voters feel comfortable,” he says. “No can­ didate will win in Vermont if they’re ideologically isolated on the left or right, unless it’s a three-way race. And then the right will always win. They [con­ servative Republicans] have nowhere to go.” For some in the Progressive Party, such as Clavelle, winning elections and advancing the agen­ da is more important than build­ ing the party. Others, including Sanders, say they’re not con­ vinced Progressives need to make a choice between idealistically building their organization and pragmatically compromising to advance its agenda. “It’s my view that for fairly obvious reasons neither the Republican Party nor many people in the Democratic Party are talk­ ing the issues or fighting the strug­ gles of the middle class or working families,” Sanders offers. “The end result of that is that both major parties have less support than they did 15 or 20 years ago. “This state today, for a lot of reasons and based on a lot of work by a lot of people, is one of the most progressive states in the country,” Sanders continues. “And as the political process moves forward, common sense has to prevail and compromises have to be made by both the Progressives and Democrats.” ®

What w ith the Burlington area's increasing infatu a­ tion w ith a hip breed of nightclub, a certain com­ fort can be found in a good old sports bar. Sim p licity is the name of the game at the Trackside Tavern. Located o ff the main drag in Winooski, Trackside is a casual jo in t w ith a long wooden bar and scattered seating. Pool and darts provide the requisite alternative to watching one of the many TVs. Beer and sports advertisem ents adorn the w alls. On weekends, local bands get the crowd riled up w ith some classic rock 'n' roll. Smoking is allowed.

"Andy Warhol Work and Play," paint­ in g s, prints and drawings, 1948-1984.

Fleming Museum, Burlington. Through June 8. ARTW O RK

ntitled (selfportrait) by Andy Warhol

• Art's Alive is soliciting entries to its annual festival of fine art in June. Deadline for juried show: March 1.

ficionados of “The Love Boat” will tell you that the October 12, 1985 episode is famous for two reasons. The first is that all three of Ron Howards TV par­ ents appeared together in the same show. Tom Bosley and Marion Ross of “Happy Days” shared the cruise with Andy Griffith. The second reason is because of the second Andy. The Pacific Princess’guest manifest for program #223 included Andy Warhol, who played himself, but was nervous about his acting nonetheless. Ross later recalled, “He was very scared to be an actor. He was very sour-looking and damaged-looking, but he turned out to be the sweetest guy in the world.” The Fleming Museums current exhibition, “Andy Warhol Work and Play,” captures elements of both the sweetness and the vulnerability of the artist while offering at least one expla­ nation for what has made him one of America’s most famous artists. Warhol successfully marketed a prod­ uct, and that product was himself. But his initial artistic successes are what cata­ pulted him into pop-star status. The show offers glimpses of Warhols early career as a graphic artist and presents a small but intriguing collection of some of his best-known works, albeit none of the famous Brillo boxes. A companion exhibition includes photographs and memorabilia from the height of his reign over the New York avant-garde. Some of these were loaned by Warhol colleague,

after the actress’ suicide in 1962, and based the Jackie prints on AP photo­ graphs from shortly before and after her husband’s assassination. Both women can be considered pop commodities on their own, and critics have asserted that’s why they’re linked in Warhols work. An additional relationship seems to be that both became symbols of death. If Warhol’s work is remembered 100 years from now, it may be because of his subtle, persistent linkage between deca­ dence and consumer culture. Unlike his Op and Abstract f Warhol's work is remembered 100 years Expressionist xom now, it may be because of his subtle, contempo­ raries of the persistent linkage between decadence and New York School, Warhol was consumer culture. looking into the photographer-poet Gerard Malanga the future rather than refining artistic movements of the past. In doing so, he (see feature this issue). Warhol described his fascination with created a flat, brightly hued, almost cheerful apocalyptic vision of what multiples as if he had learned elocution America had become in the post-World from Yogi Berra. In 1963 he stated that one of the reasons he worked on series is War II era. The 10 pieces of Warhol’s 1971 because “You do the same thing... over and over again.” But that sameness was at “Electric Chair” folio included in “Andy the heart of pop culture and Warhol knew Warhol Work and Play” emphasize his it. He exploited the tools of his trade as a morbid leanings, as do his drawings graphic artist, particularly screen printing, from the early 1980s. The latter are more intimate, as Warhol’s hand is once to emphasize that repetition. .A Campbell’s soup can and examples again evident in his work. Crosses, Buddhas and other religious symbols of his Marilyn Monroe and Jackie appear, as do skulls. Ironically, during Kennedy series appear in the Fleming this period he also used a slide projector show. He began the Marilyn shortly to infuse his drawings with the consis­

tency of his screen prints. Warhol’s achievement was not techni­ cal. In the late ’60s he stated, “I think someone should be able to do all of my paintings for me.” His innovative use of screen printing was so clean, quick and simple that he did achieve that goal. He was a well-schooled colorist, not an orig­ inal thinker in the field. His chromatic ideas were variations on the studies of Josef Albers and successful applications of textbook recipes. A superficial view of Warhol’s career might seem like little more than a feast of cotton candy, and the Fleming Museum exhibit might leave some viewers feeling a little hungry. But there was more to Warhol than meets the eye, notwith­ standing his 1967 assertion that “I am not trying to educate people to see things or feel things in my paintings. There’s no form of education in them at all.” Perhaps he eschewed teaching, but Warhol was willing to learn. By the time he appeared on the “The Love Boat,” he had produced nearly 50 films. But his co-guest star Marion Ross told him he was “a really terrible actor” and began giving him acting lessons. Warhol appre­ ciated her instruction. His posthumous­ ly published diary recorded, “I really love [Marion] so much. She’s a wonder­ ful person, and she helps me.” It’s hard to believe that Warhol needed acting lessons from Richie Cunningham’s mom to help him better play himself. But that fact alone is enough to make him more interesting than Jackson Pollock. ®

SH O R TS

ABOUT SCHMIDT* *

MAN J/EBOARD

Fisher's tale of personal triumph is effective, but plays i ist and loose kth the facts.

nspirational tear-jerkers about victims who triumph over adversity have been a staple since the earliest days of filmmaking. From The Miracle Worker to A Beautiful Mind.., Hollywood has churned out a long line of true-life heart-tuggers. Some have earned a revered place in cinematic history. Others have launched or cemented suc­ cessful careers. Almost none have raised as many questions as Antwone Fisher. Denzel Washington makes his directo­ rial debut with the fact-based account of a troubled seaman who undergoes anger therapy with a naval psychiatrist (played by Washington), comes to terms with : traumas inflicted by the physical and sexu­ al abuse he suffered as a child, and leaves everyone involved a better human being. In the title role, Derek Luke delivers a convincing performance: getting into fre­ quent fistfights with his shipmates; reluc­ tantly telling Washington about atrocities committed by one foster mother (a supremely creepy Novella Nelson); and returning to his hometown of Cleveland and finding closure by confronting his family. Less convincing on a number of fronts, however, are the story itself and the unusu­ al way it wound up on the screen. First of all, how many profiles in courageous self discovery and transcendence are written by the subjects themselves? And I’m not refer­ ring to Fisher’s 2001 memoir Finding Fish. I’m talking about the three-hankie screen­ play he’d already put on paper eight years

prior to the book’s publication, during the time he worked as a security guard at Sony Pictures. And what sort of individual docu­ ments a childhood scarred by violence, abandonment and sexual abuse but then tells the press, “I lived every scene of it and I wouldn’t change anything about it,” as Fisher did in an April 8 interview? Isn’t change the whole point? Washington proves craftsmanlike behind the camera, though he’s infinitely more impressive as an actor, even in a sup­ porting role. The personal relationship that develops between his character and the eponymous patient has raised eyebrows, however. As journalists acquainted with military protocol have pointed out, it’s as implausible as it is touching. Ian Grey observed in the Baltimore City Paper, “Washington’s presentation of Navy health­ care procedures is not only inconsistent with medical ethics — it’s ridiculous.” In interviews, Fisher has maintained the realism of the movie, but on closer inspec­ tion the picture turns out to be rife with inaccuracies. For example, Fisher left the Navy well before he made his climactic pil­ grimage to Cleveland; the ex-soldier’s search for his family took years, whereas in the film it appears to occur over a long weekend. What Fisher left out of his saga also makes you wonder. He didn’t actually stand up to his abusive foster mother and walk out of her house; a conscientious social worker discovered his mistreatment and removed him. His birth mother, once con-

tacted, never refused to communicate with her son; the two corresponded for a time but eventually ceased by mutual disinterest. The writer leaves some significant employment history off his movie resume as well: three years as a guard at Terminal Island, a facility infamous for its inhumane treatment of prisoners; and his role in a prostitution and drug ring known to sell small children for sex. As for his latest ven­ ture: While his book jacket claims the mis­ understood youth would go on to “become one of Hollywood’s most well-paid and sought-after screenwriters,” I failed to find evidence of this beyond minor rewrite work on classics like Rush Hour and Money Talks. A line in the movies closing credits reads, “Some of the characters and events depicted in this film are fictional.” We’ll probably never know how many have been added, or omitted. A few things, though, are beyond doubt: Antwone Fisher is a competendy calibrated feel-good machine. It’s as effective as anything on the Lifetime Channel, which is probably where this project would have wound up if not for Washington’s involvement. No question Fisher endured unspeak­ able treatment. However, the viewer has every right to wonder about a victim who has shared his experiences so enthusiasti­ cally with a Hollywood agent, so’eagerly parlayed his pain into fame. The 44-yearold has crafted one hell of an homage to himself. Forgive me if I find the whole thing a little bit Antwone Fishy. ®

GOOD-TIME GUMBO

Born on the bayou more than a quarter-century ago, BeauSoleil is an undisputed king in Cajun circles. The renowned ensemble — founded by flamboyant fiddler Michael Doucet — isn't content to merely preserve the time-hon­ ored style, but invigorates it with everything from zydeco and New Orleans jazz to Tex-Mex and Caribbean flavors. Ballsy Texas pianist Marcia Ball shares similar roots in Louisiana, where she soaked up swampy blues and southern boogie before shuffling off to Austin and adding honkytonk to her rollicking repertoire. Get gone, y'all.

BEAU SO LEIL AND MARCIA BALL. Wednesday, January 29. Flynn Center, Burlington, 7:30 p.m. $28-34. Info, 863-5966. Thursday, January 30. Lebanon Opera House, N.H. 7:30 p.m. $27-32. Info, 60 3-448-0400.

SUPPERS AND SLIDERS

With skates replacing glass slippers, 35 Russian champs take on five tons of frozen water in this frigid take on an old fairy tale. Following up last year's sliding and gliding rendition of Sleeping Beauty, the renowned St. Petersburg State Ice Ballet puts its unique spin on the classic rags-to-riches fable. Cinderella dances with kitchen utensils before doing the good deed that enables ~ her to have a ball and take a ride on love's slippery slope. Full opera-house sets, captivating costumes and the music of Sergei Prokofiev provide the backdrop for what the Los Angeles Times calls a "dizzying combination of fairy tale magic, flowing tutus and thrilling skating spins and leaps."

STATE OF THE UNION

It's hard to believe it's been three years since Vermonters started hashing it out at the Statehouse over same-sex couples' right to officially unite. Four tumultuous months later, Governor Howard Dean signed the landmark law and the Green Mountain State became the talk of the nation. Around the same time, Hinesburg photographer Linda Hollingdale bought an old-school Mamiya camera and decided to "put a human face on a controversial issue." Creating Civil Union: Opening Hearts and Minds presents black and white portraits and accompanying testimonials of 90 people who helped make it happen — from the politicians, plaintiffs

These notices shall satisfy two separate but related procedural requirements for activities to be undertaken by the State with the Burlington Community Economic Development Office (CEDO) as administrator of HOMEfunds. Onor about February 14, 2003, the above namedwill submit a request tothe Vermont Agency of Commerce and Community Development (hereinafter Agency) for the release of funds under Title I of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 (PL93383) andthe National Affordable Housing Act, as amended, to undertake a project knownas Depot Street Housing: Project Title: Depot Street Housing Purpose/Nature of Project: Construction of a new four-story building to include forty (40) units of mixed income housing. Location of Project: Depot Street, Burlington, Vermont. Estimated Cost of Project: $7,211,648 (HOMEfunds will provide $340,000). FINDINGOFNOSIGNIFICANT IMPACT An Environmental ReviewRecord (ERR) for the project has been made by Housing Vermont and Burlington Community LandTrust

(BCLT) andis available for public examination and copying at the CEDOmunicipal offices during nor­ mal business hours. Based onthis reviewCEDOwith concurrence by the State has determinedthat the project will have nosignificant impact onthe humanenviron­ ment. Therefore, an Environmental Impact Statement under the National Environmental PolicyAct of 1969 (P.L. 91-910) (NEPA) is not required. Additional project information is contained inthe Environmental ReviewRecord (ERR) onfile at the CEDOmunici­ pal offices and may be examined or copied weekdays 8-4:30. The Finding of No Significant Impact is based on the follow­ ing: Areviewof the assessment of the potential impact of the project and consultation with state, regional and local govern­ ment officials. There is no adverse impact on the physical or biological surroundings and it will not have a significant impact on the human environ­ ment. Public Comments on Finding Anyindividual, group, or agency maysubmit written comments on the ERRto the Burlington Commu­ nity Economic Development Office at 149 ChurchStreet Room32, Burlington, VT05401.

The State is certifying that Neil Duffy, in his capacity as Housing Develop­ ment Coordinator for CEDOand John Hall, in his official capaci­

ty as Commissioner of DHCAcon­ sent to accept thejurisdiction of the Federal Courts if an action is brought to enforce responsibili­ ties in relation to the environ­ mental review process and that these responsibilities have been satisfied. The Agency's approval of the certification satisfies its responsibilities under NEPAand related laws and authorities and allows that the CEDOmay use the HOMEProgramfunds. Objections to Release of Funds The State will accept objections to its release of funds and CEDO certification for a period of fif­ teen days following the antici­ pated submission date or its actual receipt of the request (whichever is later) only if they are on one of the following bases: (a) the certification was not in fact executed by the Certifying Officer of the State; (b) the State has omitted a step or failed to make a decision or finding required by HUDregula­ tions at 24 CFRpart 58; (c) the grant recipient has committed funds or incurred costs not authorized by 24 CFRPart 58 before approval of a release of funds by the Agency; or (d) another Federal agency acting pursuant to 40 CFRPart 1504 has submitted a written finding that the project is unsatisfactory fromthe standpoint of environ­ mental quality. Objections must be prepared and submitted in accordance with the required procedures (24 CFRPart 58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to the Agency of Development and Community Affairs, National Life Building, Sixth Floor, Montpelier, Vermont 05620.

Really...? Why do you say that Milkman Dan?

Well, I’m concerned that in the dim morning light you could get hit by a flying milk bottle or a dangerously swerving delivery vehicle.

Y’see, my friend Eddie is standin’ guard on the roof across the street with his BB gun. Hey, listen...! can hear him pumpin’ it up.

I’m not too worried about that happenin’.

Ha! Nice try, Karen. Do you honestly think I’d still be in business if I hadn’t installed bulletproof glass and kevlar panels on my van years ago?

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): “A

man is rich in proportion to the things he can afford to let alone,” said Henry David Thoreau. That might be an exaggerated definition of wealth at most other times, Aries, but its quite apropos for you right now. There’s never been a better time for you to declare total amnesty for everyone who’s ever slighted you. Forgiving and forgetting would not just be a nice thing to do; it would serve your ambitions in ways you cannot yet foresee. (Plus you would get some free kisses and hugs.)

TAURUS

dream up even more techniques for getting yourself in the mood to try wilder, looser, funnier love.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You’re starting to resemble the fruit of a prickly pear cactus: covered with sharp, inedible spikes on the outside but soft and delectable in your hidden places. There’s proba­ bly a good reason for this, so I won’t ask you to change. Don’t be sur­ prised or upset, though, if people act as if they’ve been stung when they brush up against you. And if you care about them, be quick to let them know how to work around the thorny exterior and get to the good parts within. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You’re looking especially fine. If you’re ever in your life going to be asked to do a modeling job, it might be this week. You also smell really good right now, Libra and your pheromones are unusually enticing. I’m betting you’ll attract more than your usual number of interested parties. A cautionary note: Even though your exceptional­ ly radiant and fragrant persona may bring you joy and attention, it could also cause a bit of confusion. Not everyone who comes under your spell will know who you really are or what they want from you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the coming week, Scorpio, I suggest that you allow yourself the luxury of moving like a Galapagos tortoise. Or check into a motel in a small town where no one knows you and do nothing but lie around and read books that will change your life. Or give yourself permission to sample 15 different flavors of ice cream during a picnic in your warm

Dear Lola, Until recently, I considered myself a happily married woman. My husband has a decent job and is a loving father. While putting away laundry recently, I discovered several pairs of ladies' panties at the bottom of his dresser drawer. I can only think of two explanations and, frankly, I don't know which one is worse. Help! Freaked in Ferrisburgh Dear Freaked, Those pesky panties! You just never know where they'll turn up next, do you? You present an intriguing mystery. But a little deductive reasoning will get you to the bottom of it. You can only think of two explanations. I'll see your two and raise you one. 1) The undies belong to your hus­ band. 2) They belong to someone else. 3) They're soon to belong to you. If they're brand-new, they may be a gift for you; if so, keep your mouth shut. If your husband were having an affair, one pair of panties might get mixed with his clothes. But several? Which brings us to the most likely scenario: they belong to him. So maybe this man with whom you have this wonderful marriage happens to derive satisfaction from handling, or even wearing, feminine undergarments. So what? My advice? Take a deep breath, sit down and have a little chat with your spouse. Love, Lola
