m , STRANGE, CURIOUS AND WEIRD BUT TRUE NEWS ITEMS FROM EVERY CORNER OF THE GLOBE ipid Pet Tricks U.S. Customs Service* agents at Eagle Pass, Texas, searched a pickup truck entering from Mexico and found six live snakes in a tool compartment. When they searched the two men in the truck, they found eight more live snakes, each wrapped in socks and pantyhose, hidden in the mens underwear. "In the past, we have found marijuana cigarettes and other drugs," officer Humberto Rodriguez said, "but never snakes in jockey shorts." • Police who stopped a pickup truck near Pine Valley, California, searched a portable toilet strapped to the back and found 17 illegal immigrants hiding inside. Border Patrol spokesperson Ron Henley noted, "They were pretty much stacked up inside there." • French police who tried to raid the home of an elderly woman in Toulouse had difficulty entering the home because it was crawling with at least 1000 rats. Officers said the woman fed the rats 33 pounds of grain a day and slept on the floor, surrounded by cats, which the rats tormented and bit. • In Drayton Valley Alberta, George Hyer and Catherine Cornell were fined $40 for causing animals distress after the Society for Prevention of Cruelty to Animals raided the couple's mobile home and seized 108 cats, 168 pigeons and 17 doves. Another 100 parakeets were left in the trailer because they were reportedly not in distress.
Provincial Judge L.E. Nemirsky also issued a lifetime order limiting Hyer and Cornell to one cat and four birds each.

Paul Autry, 31, of Tccumseh, Michigan, filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, seeking $83.6 billion in damages. Charging that he is being denied a job because he is an albino, Autry said he filed the suit because he ultimately wants the government to designate albinos as a minority based on color.

"Everyone suffers because of the gays," complained Brett Shields, 16, a member of East High's Beef Club, which the Associated Press reported met "to eat steaks and burgers and attend a monster truck' rally." Japanese automaker Subaru unveiled an advertising campaign targeting lesbians after its market research showed they are four times as likely as the general public to buy Subarus. According to Advertising Age, the company's first ad, running in gay magazines, shows two women looking at each other, with the line, "It loves camping, dogs and long-term commitment. Too bad it's only a car.
Since 1987, crossbows have been used to commit 92 U.S. crimes, according to statistics compiled bv Washington security consultant Louis Mizell. The weapons reputation is so fearsome that 45 states restrict its use, although advocates say it has been unfairly stigmatized as lethal. Chris Schramm of Barnett International of Florida, a major crossbow distributor, observed, "If someone got shot with a gun today, people wouldn't say anything, but if they get shot with a crossbow, it makes news."
Gun Control After Phuoc Bui, 34, was fired from a Packard Bell computer plant in Sacramento, California, for "distributing literature to other employees about taking up arms against supervisors," he returned to the plant with a 9mm semiautomatic pistol and fired 40 rounds before a security guard wounded
him. Police spokesperson Michael Heenan reported the only person injured was Bui.
Online Antics Police charged three eighthgraders in the Syracuse suburb of Minoa, New York, with plotting to set off a bomb at their school, using plans for the device they got from the Internet. Town of Manlius Police Capt. William Bleyle told The New York Times that officers found materials to make the bomb at one boy's home and that the three youths had already set off a test bomb in a field that started a small fire. • Inspired by Pope John Paul lis 1989 statement, "The Church Must Learn to Cope with the Computer Culture," nuns and monks worldwide have begun using the Internet to offer spiritual insight, religious history and vocational guidance. Web sites range from a few sentences and an e-mail address to elaborate home pages featuring illuminating graphics and inspirational music. They also pitch products. The Holy Cross Abbey promoted its Monastery Fruit Cake on "The Monk's Homepage," getting 300 orders last Christmas, until a brother discovered that the page, administered by a layman, contained Monty Python sketches, including the one about Catholic cardinals and the unexpected Spanish Inquisition. • John Goydan of Bridgewater, New Jersey, filed for divorce,
accusing his wife of using a computer to carry on a "virtual" affair. Attached to the divorce papers were dozens of e-mail exchanges, some sexually explicit, between Diane Cordon and a married man in North Carolina she met on America Online who called himself "The Weasel." The illicit relationship apparently wasn't consummated, although John Gordon claimed the two had made plans for their first real tryst.
Sex Is Its Own Punishment A Nashville, Tennessee, jury convicted Raymond Mitchell III, 45, of tricking women into blindfolding themselves and having sex with him by claiming to be their boyfriend. Prosecutors said most of the hundreds of women that Mitchell called hung up, but of the 30 women who reported the encounters to police, eight said they had sex with the caller. One woman admitted having sex with the man twice a week over two months until she discovered he wasn't her boyfriend during one encounter when her blindfold slipped off. I yam What I yam Vo Nhu Da, a farmer in central Vietnam, was forced to lock himself in his house with a 187pound sweet potato, Hanoi's Lao Dong newspaper reported, after neighbors heard about the giant tuber and "came thousands of times to Da's house for a look." •

SEXIST HEAD? I just picked up your April 10th issue and I just have to write about ® ^^^^^ your sexist headline. "Why Men Rape" implies that all men rape. If it had said "Why Some Men Rape," I would not have been offended. I'll agree this may be nitpicking, but this topic is so serious that you need to pay a little more attention to details. » Consider the following — "Why Women are a Pain in the Ass" would be sexist, right? "Why Some Women are a Pain in the Ass" would not. Some women are a pain the ass, just like some men are a pain in the ass. However, not all women are a pain in the ass, just like not all men rape. Further, I keep reading that men supposedly approve of rape, or. at least ignore it. I have never observed this. In all my discussions with other men about rape we have always agreed vehemently that rape is wrong. I would love to continue griping about how it seems to be OK to stereotype men, especially us whities, but that would require a special issue. I'll just say this — Please don't stereotype me because J'm a white male. I'm really a nice guy, and if you'll stop judging me by my sex and race (sound familiar?) maybe we can start working together to do something about all the bad people in this world. Thanks for the space. PS. If you buy mace, buy two cans — one to practice with so you can actually hit him/her in the face with the stuff. — Eli Madden Burlington CHEERS! We enjoyed your martini review in the April 3 edition of Seven Days, however, we thought you missed the best martini in town served by the fantastic "bartendress" Danni at The Iron Wolf. It is made and served to perfection every time my husband orders it. She and Klauss relocated here from San Francisco — bringing a "city drink" to add to the charm and ambience of this unique, beautiful city We relocated from Seattle and continue to be amazed and surprised at the sophistication of the greater Burlington area. — Noel & Gary Nelson Shelburne
DARK PLACES I am writing to praise the excellent reporting in Paula Routly's cover story (Seven Days, April 10). I admit that when I first saw the cover I braced myself for an emotional yank, "angry victims unite!"-type homily, but "Why Men Rape" proved to be a thoughtful, balanced, well-researched set of bold observations and probing questions on the subject. In fact, I believe the piece is so honest, fair and o p e n - m i n d e d that I'm sUre it really pissed s o m e people offl
Who, you might ask? Really afraid/angry people, that's who. Liberals, conservatives, women or men who want easy answers, who want someone or something to lynch. I'm sure you've received angry letters...calling you hypocrites for running Club Fantasy ads in the same issue. Or politically correct newshounds scolding you for "sensationalism" concerning the cover photo. Or angry men who feel that women bring this sort of trouble upon themselves, and that you must be some kind of bitter, power-hungry bitch to write about it... The truth is that, in our society, feeling disempowered, objectified and insecure happens to both women and men. Raging, displaced anger is an equalopportunity nightmare! If 84 percent of all sexual assault is committed by acquaintances of the victim, surely the solution can't be found in a banner-waving "us versus them" approach. The solution must come from a deep look into a deeper, dark place, that very personal place that your article leads us to. Yes, it is a disgusting and disempowering thing for women to be reduced to mere sex objects. And it is equally toxic and emasculating when men can't live up to being "success objects." But beyond all that, as humans doing the "pursuit of happiness dance," we all still want plenty of sex and success, don't we? Well, you can't throw the baby out with the bathwater! It's not an "us versus them" world. It's "us versus us" -— byproducts of sex, every single one of us. It's time for all the victims of victims to speak up, stand up and break the chain. Responsible means able to respond. The war of the sexes is a lie we've lived too long. We all have a masculine and feminine side to balance, you can't escape it... Amen I say to that, and suggest that the next time anyone feels so disempowered and full of serious rage that they want to hurt another human, they should do one of the following: Stop. Be responsible. Punch a hole in the wall, scream, run away, masturbate, meditate, get a new job, get therapy, exercise, evolve, or at least write a letter to your mother or the editor. There are always more choices than we see at first... — Jim Branca Burlington

Dear Cecil, Last weekend my girlfriend and i spent the night in a mountaintop lodge at an elevation of 9000 feet, about 6000 feet above the town in which we live. The romantic intent of the evening was slightly stifled by the fact that we both had a serious gas problem. It was distracting to have to constantly fight to hold back a fart.

Many feared man's mission to the stars might come to grief if an astronaut had a little too much chili before liftoff and the crew was, you know, overcome. One of many fascinating nuggets brought to light during the conference was the effect of altitude on gas. During World War II flight surgeons had discovered that above 30,000 feet some aviators suffered pain from abdominal distension due to expansion of intestinal gas. What happened was that, as outside air pressure decreased, the volume occupied by intestinal gas increased. Experiments revealed that the volume of gas, typically around 115 milliliters at sea level, doubled at 15,000 feet, tripled at 25,000 feet, and rose by a factor of 7.6 at 40,000 feet. The increase from your 6000-foot climb was less dramatic, but probably enough to make your gut puff up like a balloon. Be grateful all you did was fart. FED UP You must be investing the proceeds from your column in Treasury bonds. It's the only explanation for the rewriting of history in your description of the Federal Reserve System. The U.S, didn't experience runaway inflation before the creation of the Fed, The typical economic disaster in those days was just the opposite - a "panic," or deflationary spiral, caused by a crop failure or other decline in the economy. As farmers and the businesses that depended on them failed to make loan payments, local banks closed or curtailed loans in order to satisfy their own creditors. Imagine the impact on the economy if Visa suspended everyone's account and you have an idea of what happened. Given the fact of cyclical deflation, your idea of the pre-Fed U.5. government wrecking the economy by inflating the currency is nonsense. Your quaint confidence in the Fed and "sound money" is charming, but many economic historians don't share your view. For example, many believe the Fed killed a recovery during the Great Depression by keeping • the money supply too tight. A jolt of new Federal Reserve notes was just what the economy needed. The "experts" have an important role, but a measure of democratic control of the economy is what keeps many of us eating three meals a day. - Ryan Chew, Chicago God save me from sophomore econ majors. The Fed does not increase the money supply literally by printing up more Federal Reserve notes. Instead it tries to influence money growth through discount-rate adjustments and other arcane tools. This doesn't always work. One or two wrong turns excepted, the Fed pursued a policy of "easy money" during the Depression without generating much economic growth. What the economy needed, and what it eventually got, was a good dose of that old Keynesian

Hot Times On Hospital Hill Of all the places to suffer a cerebral hemorrhage, why did Barbara Snelling have to choose Windsor County, on the faraway eastern side of Vermont? Didn't she realize that she was outside the orb of Vermont's Burlington-based medical giant, Fletcher Allen Health Care (FAHC)? Instead, Fletcher Allen's chief rival — Dartmouth Hitchcock — became the trauma center of note in the miraculous Snelling case, and the Hanover facility has been basking in the glow of all the good publicity. Folks, these are turbulent times up on Burlington's Hospital Hill. The much-heralded January 1995 merger between Fanny Allen, U H C and the Mary Fletcher hasn't produced the promised fiscal efficiencies yet. In fact, FAHC is swimming in red ink after a dismal first quarter this year. Bottom line is where it's at, and staff morale, which has been on the rocks for quite some time, isn't likely to improve soon. Fletcher Allen employees are growing increasingly restless as C E O Dr. John Frymoyer, M.D., and his "senior counsel," former Statehouse business lobbyist Bill Gilbert, prepare the list of up to 300 employees who will shortly get their pink slips. That's got a lot of people on pins and needles, as well it should. When IBM laid off 250 workers Governor Howard Dean jumped into the fray and offered state assistance. Dr. Dean's been terribly silent on Fletcher Allen's pending layoff so far. According to the popular underground newsletter that's been circulating on Hospital Hill for some time, "It is now clear why Gilbert was brought in. He is nothing but a hatchet man for Frymoyer." Gilbert told Inside Track this week that "it will be a very painful time" when the layoffs are announced. "We're not underestimating the impact," he added. Gilbert's become the chief spokesman for FAHC. He's also been FAHC's top gunner in trying to shoot down Dartmouth-Hitchcock's emergency helicopter service. He argued before the television cameras that FAHC is the area's "only certified Level 1 trauma center." The hospital across the Connecticut River, he noted, isn't Level 1. But everybody knows the hospital across the river did just fine by Babs. With health-care giant Kaiser Permanente taking over CHP, informed sources say FAHC is desperate to form an alliance with Blue Cross and the hospitals in Rutland and St. Albans — an alliance that would become the state's premier profitable H M O . Gilbert should be the right guy for the task, since Blue Cross was one of the clients on his prestigious dance card when he worked the hallways under the golden dome. When Gilbert signed on with Dr. Frymoyer last fall it appeared that Dollar Bill was choosing a career path that would effectively launder his smudgy lobbyist image and reconstitute him as a caring public servant, and eligible for great things a few years down the line such as a run for governor or an academic presidency. Heck of a challenge. End of Story? — The Jim Ward political saga is quietly reaching closure. Last year, you'll recall, Jim was the new enthusiastic executive director of the Vermont Democratic Party. In 1994 he ran unsuccessfully for a Chittenden County senate seat. Ward was on the way up. Then, in October, party chair Maida Townsend called him on the carpet and, with-

out warning, gave him the boot. According to a copy of a letter that Democratic Party honchos are sending out to members of the Democratic State Committee, at the time Ward was fired "the Party had in place a mechanism for the impartial review of grievances, including terminations... The party acknowledges that this procedure for review was not employed in Jim's case, and we further acknowledge that, by not allowing that to take place, Jim was denied the opportunity to present his version of the facts." So sorry, Mr. Ward. Jim had been in the awkward position of leading the charge against Newt Gingrich and the Contract With America while Vermont's top Democrat, Howard Dean, was unilaterally taking his fiscal machete to human services programs in true Gingrich style. A month after Maida booted Jim, the Democratic State Committee thumbed their noses at Ho-Ho and booted Maida, despite the fact that HoHo got Bill Clinton to call her up and ask her to reconsider her decision not to seek re-election as party chair. She reconsidered, ran for re-election in November as Howard Dean's candidate, and lost. The state committee elected a different Howard as party chairman — Rep. Steve Howard of Rutland. Now Lil' Stevie Wonder has worked out a deal to make things right by Mr. Ward. He will get back pay and a modest severance package, and the letter that's going around to the state committee members pays tribute to Ward's honorable service to the party. End of story. Media Notes — "In 1982 we made a pretty stupid deal," said Sen. Vince Illuzzi, chairman of the Senate Institutions Committee. The deal was one cut between the state of Vermont and WCAX-TV. The television station got a 20-year lease to operate its Montpelier • I bureau out of a state-owned • K g house just a skip and a jump M I from the Statehouse at 9 ^ ^ m ^ ^ Baldwin Street. The place was a dump and, in return for refurbishing it, the state signed a 10-year lease with WCAX with an option to renew it for another 10 years. The price: $1 per year! According to a memo from Ron Tofani, chief of property management, to Tom Torti, deputy secretary of administration, WCAX spent "about $90,000" in renovation costs. Over 20 years that breaks down to $375 a month. Not bad. Though Tofani wrote there are "no current subleases on file," Channel 3 does share the building with the Vermont Press Bureau, which feeds The Rutland Herald and Barre Times Argus — and radio broadcaster Bob Kinzel's Vermont News Service. Kinzel said he pays WCAX $325 a month in rent. Rutland Herald Publisher John Mitchell told Inside Track he doesn't pay rent. "We share expenses," he said. It's a monthly payment, the amount of which escaped him. Head honcho Peter Martin said the state approached him on this one. "It was a derelict wreck of a house," he said, "and it was a good deal for the state — we preserved the house."

Become a Homeowner! HOMEOWNERSHIP PROGRAM
Since 9 Baldwin Street is state property, Montpelier doesn't get a cent in property taxes, even though the building is not serving a state government function. So Sen. Illuzzi has tacked an amendment on this year's capital bill authorizing the City of Montpelier to assess WCAX a payment in lieu of property taxes. He also wants to know if any other private-sector for-profit businesses have similar sweetheart deals with the state. Easy, Vince. Inside Track would gladly fork over $10-a-year for some state capital office space. You know, a desk, a couch, a coffee pot and a view. •

ART TRANSPLANT:
Corot made the cut. Degas did not. Almost a year after the first rumblings about "deaccessioning" at the Shelburne Museum, trustees voted last Monday to sell off 22 works of art. Three Degas dancers are on the auction block, including his lovely pastel, "Dancer in Yellow," and bronze ballerina. Two Manet portraits are also history. With a total of three sales at Sotheby's, the Shelburne hopes to generate $25 million for an endowment that will generate funds to "provide direct care and preservation of the overall collection." Exactly what constitutes "care and preservation" is left up to the museum, which answers ethical concerns in a six-page document detailing its deaccessioning research. The Shelburne was criticized in a January Art News article for bending rules that restrict its buying and selling —"cannibalizing collections to pay the bills" is how the mag characterized the trend. Turns out the ethics around deaccessioning are determined by the "discipline" of the museum. The Shelburne's is history. So far, the American Association for State and Local History has no complaints about the way the museum is handling its financial crisis. Its director assured the Shelburne it would be concerned about its art sales only if the museum took the proceeds and "did something blatant like build a parking lot..." M I S H A : Mikhail Baryshnikov could probably afford a "Dancer in Yellow." But for now, the primo ballerino is investing in more practical things, like a $20,000 suspension system. Baryshnikov travels with his own sprung dance floor, and is rather particular about whose toes twinkle across it. The Flynn had to cancel a student matinee for Monday morning because the scheduled dance company makes creative —- and possibly damaging — use of gravity. Something to do with bowling bails and a bed of nails. Grown-ups can check out the Everett Dance Theatre next Thursday. MORE
FOLK FREQUENCY: Who says Vermont Public Radio doesn't listen? Almost four years after "Rural Rhythms" hit the dust —and inspired the ire of not-so-mellow folk who really liked the show — the station is renewing its commitment to folk music. "There is great folk music being created today," says programming director Michael Crane. "This will not just be a museum piece." Only problem is finding someone to host the weekly show. The station is seeking proposals in audio tape form. Do I hear national syndication? ,••.•••,.•

I N B R I E F : Steve Goldberg has yet to find a leading lady for "The Taboo of Fantasy" — his new play based loosely on the community controversy surrounding Club Fantasy. "Hopefully I can really show both sides of the issue, and let the audience come to their own conclusions," says Goldberg, who is holding a second string of auditions on Saturday at the Fletcher Library. Now to find someone who acts — and looks — the p a r t . . . Blake Robison wasn't planning to be in Jump Cut. He was supposed to direct it. But when his New York actor canceled at the last minute, he switched roles with playwright Dana Yeaton. Now Yeaton is directing Robison, who promptly went out and got a buzz cut. The play, about a man faced with brain surgery, plays Wednesday and Thursday at the Flynn. Says Robison, "That is why you go to live Steve Goldberg theater. You never know what is going
to happen." . . . Those who have come, to expect the unexpected from Osiris Skywill may have to find other entertainment on public access television. Rumor has it the man behind "Center Target" is leaving Burlington for Springfield, Massachusetts. That leaves John Long — a.k.a. Mr. Happy — with no competition in the Most Offensive Local Television Personality category. "His show is a little more colorful than Osiris'," says public use

Other chapter members readily applaud Simon as the group's mover and shaker. When he moved from Washington, D.C. to. Burlington in 1993, he looked up members of SABR in the national organization's directory. What he found — and subsequently united — were eight strangers living in parallel universes of baseball fanaticism. Just two years later, the Larry Gardner chapter, complete with by-laws and its own directory, has grown to 50 — the highest membership per capita of all the states. The national president of SABR has held up the chapter as "an inspiration to others." And its research is bringing to light a slice of Vermont history as rich as, well, apple pie.
T
he Society for American Baseball Research was born in 1971 and runs some 6000strong, with chapters coast to coast. The name sounds achingly academic, conjuring images of annual conventions where tweedy, out-of-shape scholars channel their childhood major-league fantasies into long-winded analyses and statistically significant results. In a word, not. To hear Tom Simon tell it, baseball fans have more fun than almost anybody, and a neophyte in his presence is soon convinced. A SABR convention might be more accurately likened to a bunch of grown-ups with the collective enthusiasm of a nine-year-old and encyclopedic memories for baseball lore. Sure, there are members for whom the game reduces to numbers — average hits, runs, walks, pitches, the stuff of a jillion baseball cards on historical or current players. Then there's the trivia contest. It starts with a written quiz — to sort out the fudgers from the fanatically learned — and ends up with two finalists in a spelling-bee-like oral showdown. At last year's convention in Pittsburgh, Shelburne member John Bennett came in second. SABR has various committees to accommodate its members' interests, including ballparks, baseball business, records, biographies, Minor or Negro Leagues, umpires and rules, . women in baseball.

tells the stories confirms a fascination with the personalities that give baseball history — any history — its luster. And if Simon grew up idolizing figures like Tug McGraw, it's Vermont ball players that intrigue him now. He's spearheading his group's first joint research project: a book with 33 chapters, one for each Vermont-born major leaguer. Working title: The Green Mountain Boys of Summer. Alongside Vermont legends are some of its misfortunates, whom Simon finds "more interesting." For instance: Northfield's Ed Doheney, a star pitcher for

the Pirates in 1903 who went insane during the first-ever World Series and spent the remainder of his life in a mental institution. Monkton's Frank Dupee, whose very brief career comprised one game as a White Sox pitcher in 1901. "He walked the first three batters he faced and all three scored;" says Simon. "He's one of only a dozen or so pitchers with a lifetime e.r.a. of infinity. Sometimes opportunity only knocks once."
Richbourg's work is in transition; he says he's ready to leave baseball painting behind. He's not ready to talk about his new direction yet, but doesn't mind showing some pen sketches of The Beatles he's been doing to illustrate a fantasy book by Segal. South Burlington SABR member Dominick Denaro figures he has a long way to go to compare with Richbourg's artistic output, but his own baseballrelated art is engaging in completely different ways. His softly hand-tinted, panoramic photos of ballparks transfer a sense of being there — and nostalgia. His graphic paintings of ball parks and score boards, on the hile SABR members preserve, polish and glorify other hand, resemble Latin American folk art with hot baseball history, some of them are at least as colors and a fine attention to detail. More recently, he's interesting as the ball players they study. Tom turned to a quick-printing technique and Simon is one. Another is Lance Richbourg. A Saint Rauschenberg layers of images and text. Michael's Colleg£ art professor and son of a former A Long Island native, Denaro moved to Burlington Boston Brave with the same name, Richbourg transwith his wife — and fellow baseball addict — mutes the beauty, the romance, the personality, the Gretchen five years ago. Prior to that, the couple lived in Boston — the Clevelandborn Gretchen was already a Red Sox fan. Baseball has knit the couple together in ways that a common interest in, say, stamp collecting never could. Denaro admits he "felt Cupid's arrow" the minute he found out Gretchen was equally enamored of the game. The week they moved in together their two favorite teams — the Mets and the Red Sox — faced each other in the World Series. Dominick Denaro jokes that "It's a good thing the Mets won — I'm not a good loser." But for the Denaros, baseball isn't just a game; it's a lifestyle. Their condo is filled with baseball collectibles like caps (a Japanese one bears the charmingly bungled translation: "Stadium, an energetic space, inspiring sportsmanship with atmosphere of baseball, and ball parks, to two dimengreen atmosphere"), posters, cups, Wheaties boxes, sions. Though he's painted baseball scenes and specific kitschy items such as a "baseball fan" — a plastic ball players for 20-odd years, Richbourg claims to not . with a miniature electric fan that actually works.

He readily relates, though, an analysis the refrigerator Gretchen pulls handfuls of candy bars provided him by a friend, Burlington writer Elaine named after sluggers, and squeeze jars of Cleveland's Segal: "During my father's period in professional basespecial Stadium Mustard.

Seems like everyone
who comes to local coffeehouses bears a press kit claiming them the "best acoustic artist" of wherever they came from, of the country, of the world. Hard to believe they can all be number one, but it does suggest the level of folk music in Burlington is firstrate. This week another rising star arrives in the form of world-traveling Florida singer-songwriter Marianne Flemming. More bluesy than folksy, Flemming's an accomplished slide guitarist, and as likely to stir reggae and jazz into her eclectic mix. A cross between John Lee Hooker and Bonnie Raitt, says one reviewer. Flemming heats up the Burlington Coffeehouse this Saturday. Rachel Bissex opens.

DUB DUDE Supercat was still in diapers when Neil Fraser, aka The Mad Professor, was splicing and dicing like, well, a madman. His innovative work led the way for the studio art called dubbing, a sort of sonic surgery on other people's music. But it's the addition of operatic vocals and instruments like violins or pedal steel that sets the Prof apart from the cut-and-paste set. His Ariwa — Yoruba for "communication" — label boasts no less than 104 albums, including his own 1995 It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad Professor.

like to find out what the baseball history is in that place. I found it interesting, and found that very little had been done." T he information he was "basically collecting for myself" simply turned into a book. The affectionate but clear-eyed story of America's oldest minor-league ballpark — which deserves coffeetablestatus, should some publisher take note — is available at the Vermont Expos Winooski shop and at the ballpark during games. SABR members are the passers of the torch of baseball history, containing its memories, facts and fancies in books, videos, photos, paintings and oral histories — America's pastime as an extreme hobby, as it were. "Baseball is both spectator and participation sport," writes Dominick Denaro, "and there are two neighborhoods in any ballpark, defined by the field and the stands." Adds Gretchen Denaro, "I don't care about the numbers; I like the aesthetics. I like the timelessness. I see baseball more as a work of art, as a performance. I go to see who's there." • For more information about the Larry Gardner Chapter of SABR, call 862-9024.

hen Jbzra round referenced the dead art or poetry, he was certainly not privy to the current schedule of readings in Vermont.
Pulitzer Prize-winning poet laureate, came out with a new book. Ellen Voigt was nominated for a National Book Critics Circle Award. Published poets like Greg Delanty, David Budbill, Leland Kinsey and Jody Gladding read their works in bookstores, colleges and cafes. Vermont is bursting with bards. But most of them — the ones who keep regular readings going throughout the year — are unpublished. Like the father and daughter team who paid homage to Homer at Bear Pond Books in Montpelier. The sixth graders who read their rhymes at the Windsor Public Library. And the skaters, riders and hockey players who entered a poetry competition sponsored by the Vermont Council on the Humanities, Seven Days, Barnes & Noble, WOKO-FM and the Vermont Expos. Their winning words — on the subject of sport — follow.
But my domesticated gizzard knotted — something in me longed to do a one-eighty and walk his way bucking the head-winds and the pecking order — bravely defying my inevitable evolution to conformity.

Birds of Passage Yet the scoreboard for all its shining is silent in the thunderous cheering, the field's painted lines for all their significance end up underfoot, just as these tall spotlights succumb to the very stars. Something within us feels between those dividing lines not the move but the movement, the marrow, not the bone. We see a dance of circumstances, we are held by what unfolds. And in the crowd's coarse roar there is something elemental, whole voices erupting as if to carry past the gates, the stoplights, past all the web-like intersections, carry to where the struggle is all about us,

Do you remember at lunchtime how the flies pounded on the windows? And sometimes at night I could feel you closing your eyes below the floor. I sit by this fountain in the park with my toes among pennies, watching the people flock around the finish line with their shiny foreheads and hirsute legs, and I think of you. I think of the time you came back from the coast, and you hugged me in the serving room beside the salads. You said, 'look at the window. The flies are chasing each other down the glass like a swarm of bikers toward the light.' Each of the flies legs seemed twisted, ravenous to get inside. I never saw you again, but I was both torn and heavy from you, the feeling of swallowing the sky. The race ends, orange tape ripped in half and unmeasurable glory. They are standing with their expensive sneakers and colored bicycles, the seats black and hot, laughing at the windblown hair and tans that leave a line at the thigh. Like hundreds of galvanized flies,
Falling and tripping Sliding and kicking Thumping and bumping Yelling and jumping Laughing and shouting
CHAMPS 'R' US: Award-winning heading in the wrong direction" and flew into the V the flock honked frantically and scattered. They thought about it regrouped and continued on their flight never looking back at their wild sister. Those of us who don't follow snow-birds south each winter migrate to the confines of the mall to stretch our wings at sunrise. We walk in formation — counterclockwise to the cadence of squeaking sneakers — settled into our pattern.-

That I will ever be done cause I'm having so much fun
Movements fluid
In the snow and on the ice
Mirroring each of his own: Like galloping lassos they whip and curl the blonde strands of tangles bangle against her neck saying: Tame us never, wild, free Free the outlaws of the wind. They wind their ballads which hiss among trees. Tuck us, tie us Jail us behind rubber bars! Yank the reigns that crack the whip — The sound of slapped flesh won't make us quiver, shiver as the red yolk dips, as shadows canter over sand and light succumbs to dark.

I skate all day
He fakes left, so do I
Just skate away
Deeper now, and at the crease
Until I drop
Here I halt
And then I'll stop
His stick pulls back,
I start to slow down
And now swings forward:
Then fall to the ground
Slap shot
I lay there calm
I butterfly right,
And in my palm
And slide into place

It hits my leg pad

Yes!

But not as long as it will in a while
Breaking it out of the zone

EARTH TO VERMONT EnvironmentallyÂť s more than 500 Vermonters gathered on the State House lawn last Friday in celebration of Earth Day, the Vermont Senate was inside the capitol building slashing state environmental programs. "The irony was inescapable," says Steve Holmes, a lobbyist for the Vermont Natural Resources Council. "While this celebration is going on, inside the Senate chambers they're putting a moratorium on our state planning law and cutting funds for regional planning almost in half." For Holmes and other advocates, this legislative session has been an environmental disaster. They cite an "unlucky 13" areas of legislative erosion â&#x20AC;&#x201D; lawmakers said "no" to corporate recycling and gave the thumbs up to to jetskiiers. "Drastic actions" are how Holmes characterizes the current trend. "I don't think Vermont can claim to be an environmentally conscious state anymore after what I have seen in the past two years." Here's why:

State is losing ground
1. Act 250 Background: Act 250 is well known for effectively managing development in Vermont, but it has some powerful enemies. Hearings on bills to weaken the law were well attended by business lobbyists, including the Northern Vermont ^ Homebuilders, Vermont Ski Areas Association and Associated Industries of Vermont. Action: More than half the House of Representatives cosponsored an omnibus bill containing dozens of major amendments to Act 250, but the bill has not passed out of the House. On the other hand, the 1995 Legislature exempted slate quarries from Act 250. "We have taken our casualties but we haven't lost," said Dick McCormack, a Windsor County senator who is among Act 250's strongest supporters.
2. State Planning Background: Vermont adopted planning incentives in the late 1980s, but property rights : ..

groups claim planning infringes on their constitutional rights,' and municipalities object to regional review of local plans. Action: The legislature overwhelmingly passed legislation eliminating regional review of local plans in 1995 — in effect "gutting" the planning law, according to VNRC's Holmes — but the bill was vetoed by Governor Howard Dean. Observers say the law is ineffective anyway, because the Legislature zeroed-funded local planning and significantly cut regional planning funds.
sure if they "self-audit" and discover violations of pollution laws. T h e Vermont Sierra Club called the Vermont bill "the most far-reaching and potentially damaging bill introduced in the last decade." Action: T h e bill died late in the session when the Agency of Natural Resources refused to endorse it, but Governor Dean and Senator Matt Krauss, chair of the Senate Natural Resources Committee, say to expect something next year.
3. Conservation Trust Funds
Background: A half-dozen bills were introduced to force governments to pay for the privilege of regulating land use and pollution. Advocates of the bills claim that environmental regulation is a "taking" of constitutionally protected property rights. Action: T h e takings bills died in committee. Rumors abound that Republicans feared a backlash in the congressional contest coming up between Representative Bernie Sanders and probable G O P nominee Susan Sweetser.
Background: T h e state's Housing and Conservation Trust Fund is a national model for leveraging public funding with other sources to protect lands and provide low-income housing, according to Paul Bruhn of the Vermont Preservation Trust. Action: T h e Senate tried to ax the Fund's operating budget, although more than half the funding was eventually restored. An effort to reduce capital funding is expected this week.
4. Endangered Species Background: Vermont, like more than 40 other states, has a law protecting its natural heritage — a supplement to the embattled federal Endangered Species Act that would be critical if the U.S. Congress weakens or eliminates the federal law. Action: According to Rick Paradis of the Central Vermont Audubon Council, the 1995-96 legislature featured a "wellorganized... fast-track" effort to weaken the state law. After extensive hearings in 1995, the bill stayed in committee because of strong public opposition.
5. Water quality Background: T h e ski industry came to the Legislature in 1995 with a request to allow snowmaking water withdrawals at levels called "winter drought" by state hydrologists. Action: T h e 1995 legislature passed a law, with strong leadership from the Dean Administration, instituting a higher standard for new snowmaking withdrawals but grandfathering some existing withdrawals at drought levels. " T h e snowmaking bill was far and away the worst bill that passed in the biennium," said VNRC's Steve Holmes.
7. Takings
8. Forest Management Background: Major clearcuts in northeast and central Vermont stirred bipartisan support for new forest management legislation. Action: T h e 1995 legislature watered down a bill that would have allowed the Forest Resources Advisory Committee to regulate forestry practices. Major bills limiting aerial herbicides and clearcutting were significantly weakened before they passed the House. Funding for property tax equalization helping ag and forest landowners is expected to take a big hit — possibly forcing more clearcutting.
9. Waste Management Background: T h e Legislature passed comprehensive solidwaste management legislation in 1987, but resistance to centralized state and regional solid waste administration has been strong. Action: T h e 1995-96 Legislature "literally laughed out of the room" a proposal to require businesses to recycle light fixtures containing mercury, according to Senator McCormack. T h e legislature is also poised to back off on the 1987 law, without a new proposal.
10. Air Quality 6. Environmental Auditing Background: Nationally a syndicate of large corporations has sought exemption from penalties, liability and public disclo-
a p r t l , 24 . , 1 9 9 6 ,
Background: Because Chittenden C o u n t y nearly violates federal smog standards, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has sent word that Vermont must begin addressing long-term air pollu-
tion problems. Action: The 1995 legislature bridled at a proposal to increase auto emission inspection requirements in Chittenden County. The 1996 Legislature is considering a Senate-passed bill to prevent the state from requiring large gas stations to install vapor-recovery equipment that reduces smog.

11. Gravelling Background: In 1986 the Legislature voted to prohibit large-scale removal of gravel from Vermont streams because of damage to fish habitat. Action: A bill to eliminate the gravelling restrictions was introduced in the House, but has not passed.

12. General Permits Background: T h e Vermont Agency of Natural Resources has suffered from budget cuts and wants to reduce its permitting workload. Action: T h e Agency of Natural Resources sought extensive powers to issue "general permits" for broad categories of development activity without the usual public notice and review. T h e bill passed the Senate and appears to have died in the House.
13. Lakes Background: The House Fish and Wildlife Committee considered bills to restrict regulation of jetskis — or "personal watercraft" — and to turn management of publicly owned lakes over to lakeside property owners. Action: Both bills died. W h a t happened to the proenvironment bills in the 199596 biennium? "There weren't any," said Senator McCormack. "I can think of some that should have passed," but they were heavily outnumbered and did not get serious attention in the Senate. Seth Bongartz, a former state senator who served during the 1980s — considered by many to be the state's environmental heyday — points out another irony: the Vermont Legislature is serving the interests of a limited portion of the state's business community. "What is ironic is that * much of the business community is beginning to get the connection between environmental protection and longrange economic health," says Bongartz, who's thrown his hat in the ring for a Bennington County senate seat this fall. "At a time when the business community is beginning to understand how to connect the dots, the Legislature is headed in the other direction." •

and concerns as her daughter approaches school age. Her feelings are heightened by the well-known statistics cited in the current bestseller, Reviving Ophelia. Author and sociologist Mary Pipher points out that a girl will have lost self-esteem by the time she leaves the public school system, and on the way out she'll pick up a one-in-two chance of being battered in her lifetime. During our initial conversation on this topic, I felt a wave of gratitude and relief that I have sons. "Thank God this is one issue I don't have to deal with," I told her. Unlike my friend, I'm confronted daily with my older son's growing fascination with weapons, Power Rangers and plastic armies. The highly publicized rapes committed in the Burlington area in the last few months have shaken me — as a woman and as a mother. These events, and the commentary the elicited in the media, helped me see that the dishonoring of women in our culture is no less my concern because I have sons.

is volatile. Without some parental guidance to counteract these elements, I could be visiting my son in jail. (Craig Yandow's parents have this one backwards.) What can my husband and I offer our sons as an antidote to the behavior and attitudes that oppress women? They're learning already from how my husband and I relate and resolve conflict — as equals (and equally stubborn). As their mother I can model feminine strength as possible and positive. I can encourage the right use of will and a healthy expression of anger. Rape is not sloppy sex with an uncooperative stranger; it's twisted rage aimed at a convenient target. I can teach my sons how to recognize and protect themselves from child predators, given that many abusers do what was done to them. We can also talk about sex openly and honestly. Mystery and shame only feed pornography and prostitution.

When the beloved Russian emigre performs Unspoken Territory this week at the Flynn, his partners will be light and silence. Lighting is music for its creator, Dana Reitz — a postmodern dancer-choreographer with Vermont connections. The luminary effects on her nonnarrative dances are designed to invoke rhythmic variation, dynamics, volume, changes in tune. The play of light in a Reitz piece is so appealing, wrote New Yorker critic Adam Gopnik, that "you want to whistle the chiaroscuro all the way home." The program also includes two solos danced by Reitz and pieces created for Baryshnikov by Mark Morris and Kevin O'Day, formerly of the Twyla Tharp troupe. Chaconne, danced by Baryshnikov, is a revival of a 1942 piece by the modernist pioneer Jose Limon. The program comes out of the White Oak Dance Project, a pickup company of choreographers and dancers established six years ago by Morris and Baryshnikov. With financial support from paper magnate Howard Gilman, the company uses innovative programming and the Baryshnikov name to bring modern choreography to mainstream audiences.

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): When I first got this gig, I wasn't looking for it. In fact, I was hunting for a used bike in die classifieds, and by chance caught a glimpse of an ad for an astrology columnist in the "help wanted" section. When I called the editor, he told me that Robert Cole, the guy who'd be£n writing the horoscopes, had quit, and he needed a replacement immediately. I wrote my first piece that day, and was hired. Since then, I've dreamed of Robert Cole four times, and each time it's turned out to be an omen announcing an accidental opportunity coming from left field. I'm telling you all this, Taurus, because when Iwas contemplating your fate for the next two weeks, I got a vision of Robert Cole. GCMINI (May 2I-June 20): I 'm afraid, my friend, that your elevator doesn't go all the way to the top floor right now. You're a few Chicken McNuggets short of a Happy Meal, if you know what I mean. To be diplomatic, you're a couple clowns short of a circus; a flying buttress short of a cathedral. What to do? I say don't try to hide your temporary vacancy; turn it into an asset. Pump up your popularity by playing the fool, for instance. Force people out of their oh-so-logical ruts by making as little sense as you can get away with. Convince everyone that your blankness is due to the raging success you've had in your meditation practice. CANCER (June 21-july 22): A recent scientific study found that some successful people generate abnormally high levels of norepinephrine, a hormone that makes stress an enjoyable experience. You might say that these lucky dogs, who thrive on pressure, are always at the top of the Best-Stressed List. I've never considered you to be a likely candidate for the list — until now. The planets seem to be mutating your' very body chemistry, turning you into one of these anxiety-loving freaks of nature. My conclusion? The next few weeks should be blissfully victorious. L€0 0uly 23-Aug. 22): Were you held enough by loving adults in the first year of your life? If so, you'll now have what it takes to fix what's ailing your tribe. You could, for example, create an infectious new rallying cry to replace the worn-out old one. You could elevate the tone of the group communication, and make everyone feel secure as you repair the foundation they're standing on. If you weren't held enough as an infant, you'll still be able to heal the gangs collective neurosis, but you'll probably kick a few asses and bruise a few egos along the way. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I'm sick and tired of you not receiving all the kudos and gifts you deserve. Why do you have to be so damn awkward about accepting compliments, anyway? Are you actually afraid of having your dreams come true, or what? Please, Virgo, I'm begging you to murmur the following prayer 10 times daily for a week: "Every day in every way I am dissolving my unconscious resistances to praise and presents. 1 am making it ridiculously easy for people to bestow their blessings on me." LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): T'm not suggesting that you become bosom buddies with the dark side of your personality. All I ask is that you strike up a more civil acquaintance. The practical fact of the matter is that if you keep a dialogue going with this prankster, it won't feel compelled to turn you into a ventriloquist's dummy at inopportune moments. After a while you-might even come to think of it as a handsome devil with spicy advice on how to be a better lover and more discriminating dreamer. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Some brute named Roger Dawson sent me an invitation to buy his cassette program, "The Secrets of Power Negotiating." He writes: "When you destroy the guy across the table, that's negotiating. When you make him thank you for it, that's power." Now I know, Scorpio, that you yourself will soon be in the midst of some furious wheeling and dealing, so maybe Dawson's perverted teachings would have a certain appeal to you. (His address: do NightingaleConant, 7300 N. Lehigh Ave., Niles, 1L 60714.) To be frank, though, I hope you neither have to destroy the guy across the table, nor make him thank you. If those are even a possibility, you're definitely not in the right place at the right time. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): For the foreseeable fiiture, don't put much credence in people who present themselves as specialists and authorities. Assume that all the "experts" are dispensing well-packaged B.S. that's at least half-wrong. The fact is, Sagittarius, the nature of the consensual hallucination we call "reality" is changing so fast that anyone who acts like a know-it-all is an arrogant idiot. The moral of the story: If you're not confused right now, you're just not paying close enough attention. Now chew on these wise words: "God offers to every mind its choice between truth and repose. Take which you please; you can never have both." — Ralph Waldo Emerson. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You remind me of a rich vein of coal that's languished just below the surface of the earth for 90 million years or so. That's why I'm digging you up and igniting you with my psychic blowtorch. Poof. Crackle. Roar. You just burst into a blazing bonfire. You're finally using the energy that's been stored up in you all these eons. But wait. Slow down. Don't burn through everything you got in the first few hours. Save some for later, y'hear? AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In recent years a weird malady has afflicted the rainbow trout population. It's called the whirling disease, and it causes the fish to chase their own tails. Now I know you have enough to worry about already, and the last thing you need is yet another prohibition, but I'd like you to avoid rainbow trout this week. Don't fish for em. Don't eat 'em. Don't even look at pictures o f ' e m . The astrological aspects indicate you're at risk for behavior that resembles whirling disease, and 1 don't want you to do anything that could even remotely increase that likelihood. PISC€S (Feb. 19-Mar. 20): The current Pope and science-writer Carl Sagan apparently have little in common. Yet the fact is, they both fear and despise astrology with a fundamentalist fervor. Each in his own way regards my ancient art as the work of the devil. (Sagan's new anti-magic, myth-hating book is called The Demon-Haunted World) It must be embarrassing to them that both Pope Alexander VI and the great astronomer Johannes Kepler were skilled astrologers. tsx^,^ „ i — — t W Q s e e m i n g l y opposing views can converge in kout for more examples of this in your own life I n J "or bridging gaps and fihdiog eotnmort denomina* >ncilable differences may be closer to truce than
