FARM AID?

. Donald R. Eggert Rev. Diane Sullivan Stefan Bumbeck

This letter is in response to the article “Green M ountain Campesinos” [June 18]. After reading the article I was left feeling like I wanted to do something to help. I have traveled to Oaxaca, Mexico, and have visited small villages which are absent o f men because they have left their villages to trav el north into the United States or Canada. I have also met several individuals, both campesinos and others, who if asked will share sto ries about leaving their homes in rural villages and having to travel to the United States and Canada, only to work in order to send money back to their families in Mexico. For many this is a fact of life, and it certainly is very diffi cult for them, but they do it because they have to do it. How can Vermonters help these indi viduals?

VERIFIED AUDIT CIRCULATION

Thanks to Seven Days and to Ken Picard for exposing the dark side

supposed to mean more exports, which, with the help o f trade lib eralization, would drive Mexican campesinos off the land, meaning more markets for us as well as the creation o f a new labor pool to be exploited. There is a word to describe these policies: global ization. T he Vermont farmer is as much a victim o f these policies as is Pedro. Those who argue, as our Agriculture Secretary does, that we must put up with the un pleasantries (pollution) associated with these operations if we are to “save” Vermont agriculture must ask themselves: If we continue to degrade the Vermont dairy farm — by now a place where only “an ex-convict, child molester or whatever” would want to work — there will not be anything w orth saving. Vermonters played a noble role in the abolition o f slavery in the 19th century. Will future genera tions look back upon ours with a* similar pride, with shame or with the same vegetative indifference that has apparently beset ns?

o f the Vermont Large Dairy Operation. [“Green M ountain Campesinos,” June 18]. But one thing Picard failed to make clear is that this is the reality of the LFO (Large Farm Operation), not the small family farm. Picard also failed to pose any questions as to how we ever arrived at such a state o f affairs. T he agribusiness industry (which has been making a big push for farm “managers” to use “Spanish-speaking labor” for years), the Vermont D epartm ent o f Agriculture, UVM Extension and the public officials who gave us NAFTA and “cheap food” all have cham pioned the large farm as the farmers ticket to bigger profits and less work. Well, the farmer has gotten 10-dollar milk and, as for less work, now he has 1000 cows to milk instead o f 80. T he promise so alluring to our culture — that technology will free us from physical labor — is as false here as anywhere; because that labor from which we have been liberat ed has only been pushed into the shadows. Someone is doing all the dirty work we no longer have to do, and someone is paying the price for our “cheap” food. T he economic conditions that have become “desperate,” the degradation o f the Vermont dairy, are no accident. All o f this was planned. Cheap food was

and W ilm ington; six more are dismissed but on appeal. “Enough!” said 33 states and. passed laws to forbid these suits; six more are pending. “Enough!” said the House and passed H .R. 1036 to stop these suits. “Enough!” say 54 Senators who cosponsor S.659, the final step needed to stop this abuse through the courts. “Filibuster!” say the enemies o f civil liberty.

We are “studying” the bill, say Jeffords and Leahy. W hat’s to study? O u r Senators certainly know the difference. * TJiey spend time in W ashington, D .C ., which has the most repres sive gun control; 232 murders among 571,822 in 2001. They spend time in Vermont, which has no gun control and has very low crime; eight murders am ong 613,000 Vermonters in 2001. They know predators do not attack people who are probably armed. Brady wants to destroy our sources o f defensive arms, leaving us vulnerable to predators. It’s time for our Senators to represent our interests, to come to our res cue and defend our rights by cosponsoring S.659, “Protection o f Lawful Commerce in Arms Act.”

regrets that Burlington does not practice this form o f “Chicagostyle” politics. T his is a deeply irresponsible thing to advocate, regardless o f one’s feelings about particular parties and candidates. In this p o st-9 /11 age, we have w it nessed the evaporation o f m any o f our civil liberties and the harassm ent o f m any people who express dissenting opinions (such as opposition to war). We have also seen the m ainstream m edia uncritically cover far too m any o f the governm ent’s wellchoreographed war propaganda events. I’m glad that I live in a city where it is still possible to subtly disrupt a carefully script ed m edia event, regardless o f the candidate. If only Sign M an could have had his sign in cam era’s view when George Bush made that preposterous landing on an aircraft carrier... b ut I d o ubt he’d have lasted three sec onds.

T h e M an to B e a t? he Dean for America H Q in South Burlington, Vermont, was Ground Zero M onday in the world of American presi dential politics. It was the last day of the second quarter, and presidential hopefuls were in a horse race to rake in as much dough as possible before the clock struck midnight. Since Gov. Howard Dean’s controver sial appearance on “Meet the Press” with Tenacious Tim Russert, millions of dol lars have been pouring into Deans cam paign war chest via the Internet. A couple weeks ago, campaign manager Joltin’ Joe Trippi was predicting Dean might take in $4.5 million by the end of June. But then something quite incredible happened — H o-H o caught lightning in a bottle. While the chattering pundit class in the incestuous world o f Foggy Bottom unani mously panned Dean’s performance on “Meet the Press,” thousands o f regular folks outside the Beltway were smitten by H o-H o’s honesty and frankness as he weathered Russert’s over-the-top attemptto be the Great American Deanslayer. All o f a sudden, the financial floodgates opened and thousands of small donations in the $25 to $100 range rushed in. Dean’s kickoff speech the next day jacked up interest in the little guy from Vermont even more. And his landslide vic tory in the MoveOn.org presidential pri mary later in the week energized a new political base that’s all 21st century, all online, and desperate for a leader who will take on George W. Bush and the corrupt regime that has hijacked our democracy. By Monday, Trippi’s earlier prediction had been easily leapfrogged. The Dean campaign reported contributions exceeding $6 million Monday morning; $7 million was the target for the midnight hour. M onday afternoon, Dean H Q had the hustle and bustle o f Grand Central at rush hour. But everyone paused to watch C N N ’s “Inside Politics” at 4 p.m. H o-H o’s fundraising phenomenon was the top story o f the day. “Every campaign aide I spoke with today,” announced the C N N reporter, “said they were watching Dean’s Internet Web site [http://blog.deanforamerica. com].” A cheer erupted simultaneously from the packs o f young Deaniacs huddled around a half-dozen tiny TV screens spread throughout the maze o f offices and cubicles. “It’s really sort o f a history-making day in presidential politics,” said Dean’s smil ing deputy campaign manager Bob

Rogan. “We are about to formally enter the top tier o f presidential candidates,” said Rockin’ Rogan, “and we are also going to raise more money on the Internet than any campaign in the history o f the Internet. This is the beginning o f rewriting the book on how presidential campaigns oper ate in this country.” M ondays campaign windfall was an Internet version o f the Jerry Lewis telethons o f yesteryear. The Dean Web site

tracked the contributions on a 30-minute basis. A giant baseball bat was the onscreen thermometer. We contacted a couple Dean donors. Julie Lewis, 50, o f Silver Springs, Maryland, is an advertising sales rep who made a $ 100 donation to Howard Dean’s campaign Monday. “I was at work getting nothing done,” said Lewis, “watching the Dean Blog.” Lewis told Seven Days she had never _ before made a financial contribution to a political campaign. Asked what attracted her to Dean, she replied, “His honesty. Here’s a guy who doesn’t pull his punch es.” Lewis suggested the Dean campaign take a look at the fundraising technique of Public Broadcasting stations and devise a method that would automatically allow working people to make regular small, monthly donations via credit card in the range of $5 to $10. “It adds up,” said Lewis. N ot a bad idea. Are you listening, Mr. Trippi? ■* Also following the Dean blog Monday was Amy Southerland, a 37-year-old freelance writer from Kansas City who recently moved to Washington, D.C. Southerland told Seven Days she is “not a highly political beast.” She said she first noticed Howard Dean about two months ago and then learned more about him dur ing the MoveOn.org online primary. Southerland also watched H o-H o’s recent appearance on “Meet the Press” and thought he was “terrific.” The fact that Dean didn’t offer an answer for every ques tion Russert fired at him impressed her, she said. “O ne o f the most honest things a per son can do,” she said, “is admit they don’t know the answer.” T hat’s what H o-H o did when Russert asked him how many troops comprise the U.S. Armed Forces. Dean said he didn’t know the exact number, but believed it was between one and two million. It’s actually 1.4 million. “I want to trust whoever runs the coun try,” said Southerland, “and I don’t trust George W. Bush.” Southerland said she’s attracted by Dean’s “intelligence” and the fact that he’s an “analytical thinker who sees the big pic ture.” She sent Candidate Dean $25 Monday. It was all she could afford. Folks, people like Lewis and Southerland are the people who are going to put Howard Dean in the W hite House. T hat’s why keeping him healthy is so important. It’s no surprise that a source at the Dean Campaign tells us the candidate has received death threats. Perfectly under standable. It’s America. It’s a price o f fame. Add politics to the mix and you have a combustible material. And lately Dean’s been attracting larger and larger crowds. The other night more than 2000 people gathered on the Plaza in the heart o f Santa Fe, New Mexico, to see and hear Howard INSIDE TRA CK » 16 A

Curses, Foiled Again After Suzanne Johnson, 47, murdered her boyfriend by shooting him in the back and head in her apartment in Collins ville, Illinois, she cut up his body, then tried to cover up evidence o f the crime. She rented a carpet cleaner, painted the bloodstained walls, took her bloody clothes to a coin-operated laundry and threw away the gun. Police arrested Johnson anyway after her downstairs neighbor reported that blood was seep ing through her bedroom ceiling from Johnsons apartment above. While inves tigating, Officer Dan Arvizu accidentally knocked the lid off a 30-gallon trashcan in Johnson’s apartment, revealing a sock-

• Reporting that 28 percent of Hispanic voters support the nomina tion of lawyer Miguel Estrada for an appeals court seat, Miami-based pollster Sergio Bendixen commented that based on listening to some of the poll inter views, it is clear many of those who support Estrada are confusing him with actor Erik Estrada, who starred in the 1977-1983 television police drama ‘CHiPS’ and is now a popular Spanishlanguage soap-opera star. ‘Many of them think President Bush nominated Erik Estrada,’ Bendixen said. ‘I’d say a good third think that way.’ He added that he heard one person say Estrada should be confirmed because he did

Everything You Know Is Wrong One in three Americans believes that U.S. forces have already found weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, according to a poll by the Program on International Policy Attitudes at the University of Maryland. Two out of 10 said Iraq actually used chemical or bio logical weapons. ‘It’s a striking finding,’ Steve Kull, the program’s director, said, noting that the mistaken belief that weapons have been found ‘is substantial ly greater among those who favored the

He the Man W hen Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan visited a middle school in Washington, D.C., to teach students about ‘financial literacy,’ he was introduced as an ‘honorary black man’ by the head of Operation Hope, a nonprofit group that teaches inner-city residents how to be self-sufficient. Telling the students and school officials that everybody knows Greenspan is chairman of the Fed, Bryant, who is black, declared, ‘W hat you don’t know is that he’s also what we call in my com munity ‘a bad brother.”

reading, ‘Pizza Schmizza paid me to hold this sign instead of asking for money,’ the erstwhile panhandlers receive pizza, soft drinks and a few dol lars. Pizza Schmizza’s founder, Andre Jehan, said he got the idea after feeling guilty passing homeless people begging for money. ‘I got tired of not being able to make eye contact with these people,’ he said. ‘I thought, ‘W hat skills could they have?’ Holding a sign was an obvi ous one.’

73-year-old monarch became the first member of any royal family to receive a patent, for the Chaipattana water-aerator, which cleans water used in farming. • In May, Nongnuch Paynguleaom was crowned Thailand’s Miss Jumbo Queen. The 25-year-old nurse, who won $1162 in prize money, weighed in at 209 pounds, making her a lightweight compared to last year’s winner, 420-pound Lalita Songlath. Besides exhibiting the characteristics of an elephant (grace, elegance and size), con testants had to demonstrate talent and field questions from hosts Ornapa Krisadee, Thailand’s leading transvestite actress, and actor Tanongsak Supagam. The pageant was held at the Samphran Elephant Ground and Zoo. Most of the 20 contestants, according to pageant organizers, regard the event as a way to make new fat friends, who understand the stigma that fat people face in society and make ideal shopping partners for full-fig ured fashions. A m onth later in Bangkok, Saowapa Thephasidin, 37, claimed the title of first-ever Miss Spinster. She beat out 127 other contestants, ages 28 to 51, who competed in sportswear, short dress and evening gown categories dur ing the two-week pageant. The winner, described as ‘a private entrepreneur with a talent for sign language,’ re ceived $1190. ‘The contest is to show that single females who are old can live happily even if they don’t get married,’ pageant representative W uhan Kamutchat said.

Robbing Peter to Pay Paul Authorities in Lock Haven, Pennsylva nia, charged Shonda D. Walter, 23, with murdering her 83-year-old neighbor and stealing his car and $500 in quarters. Walter’s mother testified at a preliminary hearing that her daughter was unem ployed and deep in debt, including court payments for an insurance fraud convic tion. ‘She was worried if she didn’t make a payment, they would take her back to jail,’ Judith Walter said.

THE PUZZLE

• As you can guess from her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre dict. Her preferences change from 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. B ut 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.) Fannie avoids FIRST NIGHT festivities because she likes to booze it up with friends. On a dare in college she kissed five boys in one day and CAME DOWN WITH MONO. Her convict friend Ajax prefers SOLITARY CONFINEMENT to other "possibilities."

-s

She is attracted to stores that display a sign reading ADULTS ONLY.

Ffer cousin Jersey Jack Jambone opened a nightspot called the ACE OF CLUBS. Fannie says FILET OF SOLE is bland and boring compared to bluefish.

£ In his later years THE LONE RANGER got a bit dizzy in the dome. One of Fannie's ambitions in life is to avoid becoming a SPOUSAL UNIT. “a Kyle, her high school prom date, was denser than a COSMIC SINGULARITY.

Fannie's FLYING SOLO, now that conformity is the rule and originality is despised.

id you see the girls out tonight?” my customer asked as he settled in the front seat. “Oh, man\ I mean, give me a friggin’ break. It is too much!” The way the guy spoke, I half-expected him to start drooling. He couldn’t have been more than 30 and was not unattrac tive — in that lean, lanky, Vermont-coun try way. It made me wonder why he was alone and pining on a Friday night. “Yeah,” I said, “there are some beautiful women in Burlington. You notice it even

"The ex-girlfriend of my good friend showed up at the bar I was hanging in, and — I swear to God — she starts to hit oh me.,Did I mention this girl is hot?" more when the weather warms up and the winter jackets come off. Where’d you say you’re going, again? Essex Center?” “Yup, Weed Road. You know where that’s at? How much you gonna charge me?” “Weed Road, huh? T hat’d be 20.” “Well, I got exactly 20. That means I wouldn’t be able to tip you, s o ...” “Don’t worry about it,” I replied. “Twenty’ll be fine.” As we proceeded up Main Street, the streets were nearly unrecognizable and what little traffic there was crawled along. An intense fog had settled in just after nightfall and showed no signs of receding anytime soon. The town felt enshrouded, like a closed-up house with all the furniture draped in sheets. “Listen to this one,” my seemingly lovestarved seatmate offered as we finally made it to the Interstate. “The ex-girlfriend of my good friend showed up at the bar I was hanging in, and — I swear to God — she starts to hit on me. Did I mention this girl is hot? So I begged off, but je e z ” “Really?” I said. “So what’s the prob lem?” “I made the right decision, right? I did, didn’t I?” “■How long ago did they break up?” I asked. “Maybe a month ago. My buddy isn’t taking it too well, either.” “C ’mon, man,” I replied. “That’s a nobrainer. You don’t do that to a friend. You ain’t a kid anymore. O f course you did the right thing.” . “Well, I thought so. But did I mention? — this girl is so hot.” “Yeah, about five times. Do you get how irrelevant that is? You’re thinking with your penis is what you’re doing. Wake up, broth

er — ya hear what I’m saying?” It felt like one of those movie scenes where a character is talking gibberish and somebody grabs him by the shoulders and smacks him back and forth on the face a few times, bringing the fool back to his senses. “Yeah, I know what you mean,” he replied. “B u t...” I could tell he was about to tell me how hot the girl was again, but he thought bet ter of it and stifled himself. I appreciated the effort, because the conversation was getting stupid. W hen asked, I don’t mind sharing my vast wisdom about women and relationships, but not with the irredeem ably vacuous. I turned up my favorite music station as we crawled along the Circ Highway. I was n’t too eager to chat with this guy anymore and I really did need to stay focused on the road while negotiating this soup. This^iotso-suf>de 'social hint, howev^:, went straight over my customer’s head. “You know what?” he asked, apropos of nothing. “It’s not fair. Girls are like crack cocaine to me. I can’t help myself. I just can’t.” I could have remained quiet at this juncture, but who am I kidding? Turning down the radio, I said, “If what you say is the truth, then it’s as bad as crack cocaine. It’s not really pleasure you’re dealing with at that point; it’s more like compulsion.” My customer sat quietly for a few moments as we turned onto Route 15. I couldn’t decide which was denser — the fog settled over Chittenden County or this guy’s brain. “You know,” he spoke up as we passed the Outlet Center, “tonight has been a total disaster. I’m really going to hear about it when I get home.” “W hen you get home?” I asked, aghast at the implication. “Are you saying you have a girlfriendW home?” “No, it’s my wife.” “Your wife? You’re running after girls downtown with a wife at home? W hat was your intention in getting married?” “Well, I love my wife and all, but, you know, there are so many gorgeous women out there, and I’m still a young guy.” “But isn’t that the whole point of being married? You give up one thing to get something else much bigger, something much more meaningful.” Married men have been known to run after women; it’s not, like, unheard of. But something in me — perhaps this is my compulsion — harbors a great desire for people to do the right thing. Maybe it’s a way to forget about my own history, and the countless times and myriad ways I’ve fallen short of my ideals. We pulled into the driveway at the guy’s house on Weed Road. As he handed me the 20, he said, “I know what you say is true. It’s just not easy.” I nodded and said, “You are so right about that, brother — it’s not easy.” (?)

fCCCHALKA

BY CECIL ADAMS house, slaughterhouse or backhouse, among others; and (c) all were originally -— and more sensibly — applied to men of solid or powerful build. When said of women, one 1938 source notes, the phrase usually meant a "heavy, cloddish, sexually unappetizing female." But even in the 1930s a few wiseguys were applying it to attractive women, and in the U.S. that usage has now supplanted all others. But not everywhere. In Australia and the UK, at least, "built like a brick shithouse" still most commonly refers to well-built men. Therefore be advised to use caution in toss ing this phrase about whilst abroad; you may be taking your life in your hands. Dear Cecil, % / The P C I am using right now would be considered pretty typi cal today. It has a 1 GHz 32-bit processor, 256 MB o f RAM, and a hard disk o f several GB. I suppose that at some point in the past, a computer this powerful would have been considered a supercomputer. The question is, how far back? Is my current computer more powerful than what nuclear scientists and NASA were using in the early 70s? Or am I trying to compare apples and oranges? — Rafael Garcia Philadelphia

Dear Cecil, Where did the phrase "built like a brick shithouse " originate? How can it possibly be considered a compliment? — Erik Smith Hilton Head, South Carolina You wouldn't ask this question if you'd ever really listened to a man try to compliment a woman. ("Of course I like your outfit, honey. It really de-emphasizes your butt.") But you have a point. When one contemplates the comely female form, "brick shithouse" is not the first phrase that springs to mind. For a broader perspective I consulted what is surely the definitive treatment of the subject, The Vanishing American Outhouse by Ronald S. Barlow (1989). This unpretentious volume has everything you'd want to know about outhouses and then some. (Sample: "State of Maine outhouses are among the sturdiest ever built," accompanied by a photo of a particularly handsome albeit nonbrick example. Some thing for the New England tourism bureau to think about now that New Hampshire has lost the Old Man of the Mountain.) The book includes photos of privies constructed using a wide range of materials, including clapboard (by far the .commonest), plywood, stucco, concrete, cedar shakes, logs, corrugated tin, scrap lumber and of course brick. The brick shithouses are generally pretty impressive architecturally, but not even the most obtuse male is likely to see the spitting image of his lady love therein — not unless she's got a physique like a defensive lineman. They are, however, well built, especially in contrast to the flimsy wooden variety, and it's strictly in this narrow sense that the phrase is usual ly applied to a woman. (To quote the relevant Commodores tune: "The lady's stacked and that’s a feet,") You may think: I've heard of people being deaf to sec ondary associations, but this takes the cake. Well, no. The guy who first used "built like a brick shithouse" to describe a woman with a nice figure wasn't thickheaded, just a smart-ass. From the Random House Historical Dictionary o f American Slang we learn that: (a) the phrase and its euphemistic variants date back at least to 1903; (b) said variants replace "shithouse" with switch shanty, school-

Apples and oranges? Probably, but as a demonstration of the march of progress the explosion of computing speed since the 1960s is hard to beat. The power of a supercomputer is commonly measured in "flops," which stands for floating point operations per second. The Cray-1, the most famous early supercomputer (the first model was installed at Los Alamos National Laboratory in 1976), was capable of 133 megaflops (133 million flops). Early versions weighed over five tons, had a clock speed of 80 MHz, featured the equiv alent of 8 MB of RAM, and cost about $9 million. In 1985 the Cray-2 was introduced, which could do 1.9 gigaflops (1.9 billion flops), operated at 244 MHz, had the equivalent of 2GB of RAM, and cost about $12 million. For compari son, a typical PC bought in 2000 or 2001 uses a Pentium 4 processor with a clock speed of 1.5 GHz, benchmarks at around 1.8 Gflops, probably cost under $2,000, and fits under your desk. In short, it's the rough equivalent of a 1985 supercomputer for one-six thousandth the cost. Don't get smug. Your PC can accomplish only a pitiful fraction of what today's supercomputers can do. The current record holder is the Earth Simulator ultra-high-speed parallel vector computer installed at the Earth Simulator Center in Yokohama, Japan: it's tested at 35.86 teraflops (35.86 trillion flops) and has 10 TB (terabytes) of main memory. As has been true of cutting-edge computers for the past 60 years, the thing is huge, filling not just a room but a building. Whether its performance will be matched 15 years hence by something you can buy for $900 at Wal-Mart remains to be seen. But Gordon Moore, cofounder of Intel and originator in 1965 of Moore's Law (current formulation: computer power per square inch of microchip doubles every 18 months), says we won't haul up against the laws of physics, or at least the limits of wafer technology, until 2017.

epublicans in Vermont, more so than those in any other state, can lay claim to membership in a truly Grand O ld Party. From today’s perspective, however, that might seem a mocking mistitle. For despite the electoral successes o f Richard Snelling and James Jeffords in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s, and notw ithstanding James Douglas’ victory last year, the Vermont G O P has been in a steady — sometimes steep — decline for the past four decades. T he party has come to resemble an oldies act that can occasionally draw a crowd even though it has long since sunk from superstar status.

5th, Annual ardently abolitionist. Most Green M ountain voters quickly and firmly identified with the party that was established to prevent the extension o f slavery into the western territories. Verm ont’s com m itm ent to the antislavery cause ran broadly and deeply, with one in every five male residents serving in the U nion army during the Civil War. “Verm ont’s casualty rates were among the highest o f any northern state, leaving mourners in virtually every town and family,” H and writes. Because politics had taken on a life-or-death complexion, the electorate’s sentiments were tinged with strong emotions. T he pro-slavery Democratic Party came to be regarded in Vermont as not just ideologically misguided but dow nright disloyal. Eager to erase that stigma, many Democratic lead ers abandoned their party and enlisted in the Republicans’ ranks, H and recounts. But it wasn’t only altruism that spurred the rapid growth o f the Vermont Republican Party. Economic self-interest played a major role as well. In the 1840s, the Democrats sharply reduced the tariff on wool that protected American sheep farm ers from foreign com petition. In a state where sheep outnum bered hum ans six to one, the Democratic tariff cuts proved economically ruinous. “The Republican Party’s protectionist poli cies on agriculture were at least as im portant in Vermont as its anti-slavery stance, and more so after the Civil War,” says state archivist Gregory Sanford, who collaborated on H an d ’s book. The two strands that define Vermont Republicanism — social liberalism and economic conservatism — may thus be seen as having been present at the party’s creation. A nd those themes continue to resonate even am ong younger Repub licans. Jim Barnett, the 27-year-old chairman o f the state GOP, cites fellow Barre native Deane Davis as his chief political role model. Davis’ tenure as gov ernor from 1968 to 1972 is remembered mainly for his sponsorship o f Act 250. Barnett says he *

platforms in extending the Republican Party’s hegemony well into the 20th century. In the absence o f a viable opposition, political disagree ments and clashing personal ambitions had to be played out entirely within the GOP. If the Republicans had not been adept at managing these internal contradictions, the party would have splintered and become too weak to prevent a Democratic upsurge. Republican primary elections in Vermont could be fiercely fought affairs, but the party invariably coalesced behind its nominees. The G O P also practiced the principles o f tolerance and diversity w ithin its own ranks. N o one was excommunicated from the party for reasons of doctrinal heresy. “Vermont Republicans really did build the proverbial big tent,” Sanford says. He cites the cases o f George Aiken and Warren Austin who held Vermont’s two U.S. Senate seats in the first half o f the 1940s. “Aiken gave voice to a liberal Republican viewpoint on social programs but was seen as almost an isolationist,” Sanford notes. “Austin opposed the whole New Deal but was an internationalist.” Strict observance o f an unw ritten “M ountain Rule’” helped ensure that peace was kept within the party. For m any years, statewide offices were regularly alternated between Republican nom i nees from the western and eastern sides o f the Green M ountains.

ing the state’s Irish Catholic m inority to enroll as Democrats. So, in addition to siding with the G O P on political issues, the Yankee yeomen of Vermont might identify as Republicans for sectar ian reasons. The G O P was also organized around local family dynasties that remain a familiar feature in rural Vermont. The party had a quasi-feudal aspect, with widespread economic dependence on a few lords o f industry often translating into alle giance to a specified political organization. Proctor (marble), Fairbanks (scales), Prouty (lum ber), Smith (railroads) and Dewey (insurance) were names inscribed among the Republican elite for generation upon generation, H and observes. “T he most pre-eminent families owned the largest industries and contributed so bountifully to Vermont’s business and political leadership that the Republican hierarchy resembled a cousins’ club,” he writes. Class conflict never threatened to unsettle Vermont politics, Nelson observes. Differences in income were generally small in a state with few affluent residents. As a result, Democratic appeals to working-class interests failed to find a large receptive audience in Vermont. Social and cultural stasis was the norm in a state that didn’t grow and had no communities worthy o f the term “city.” Vermont was a back water during most of the century that the Republican Party reigned unchallenged. Because its agrarian economy promised a life o f hard labor and little hope o f prosperity, thousands o f Ver m ont’s young people fled the state in search o f opportunity. T he population thus advanced in age but not in size, causing the state to become

oped state transportation network could have fos tered the rise o f com peting power centers. A nd success bred success. T he Vermont Republican Party consistently attracted the most skillful candidates because there was no feasible alternative for anyone eager to enter public serv ice. “T he absence o f a visible Democratic organi zation in so many towns discouraged all but the most utopian visionaries” from seeking office w ithout Republican approval, H and points out. A few less appealing factors also contributed to the G O P ’s ability to sustain its political control. T he Democrats remained a feeble force in Vermont not only because o f the party’s legacy on slavery and tariffs. Ethnic homogeneity, small town clannishness and a lack o f economic dynamism also helped m aintain Vermont as a one-party state for an unhealthfully long period. “There’s a heavy Protestant tradition in Verm ont,” observes U VM political scientist Garrison Nelson. “In fact, it’s the most Protestant o f the six New England states.” A nd in Vermont the Republican Party was a Protestant party, leav-

increasingly set in its ways and insulated from outside influences. Burlington and the few other centers of Democratic strength were meanwhile denied a proportional measure o f political power in the State Legislature through a one-town/one-vote system o f representation. From the time it became a state until 1965, Vermont apportioned seats in its House equally among its towns, regardless o f their population. As a result, Burlington had the same num ber o f State Representatives (one) as did tiny Buels Gore.

Nothing in the physical world — not even the Vermont Republican Party — is exempt from the law o f entropy. Pressures from w ithin and w ithout slowly weakened an organization that had enjoyed complete control longer than any other state’s GOP. Internal divisions were primarily responsible for the party’s first statewide electoral loss in 104 years. W illiam Meyer, a Democrat, w on the 1958

PH J 1p> vacant U.S. House seat was not so m uch won by the Democrats as lost by the Republicans. But other forces were also at work that can now be seen as harbingers o f a com ing upheaval in Vermont politics. Garrison Nelson points out that the 1958 m id-term elections brought D em o cratic successes nationwide. Vermont then had ceased to be entirely im m une from broad political trends — a shift that likely reflected the state’s growing connectedness to the rest o f the country through telecommunications and an improving transportation network. H and also cites the role organized labor played in Meyer’s victory over a Republican running on a party platform hostile to trade unions. A more decisive break w ith Republican rule came four years later when Phil H o ff was elected governor. T he influx o f liberal-minded flatlanders that would fundam entally transform Verm ont was little more than a trickle in 1962, the year o f H o ff’s victory, so dem ographic trends contributed little to this epochal event. More germane was H o ff’s Protestantism, which may have seemed reassuring to Vermonters put off by the mainly Catholic com position o f the D em ocratic Party. T hen, too, the taboo against papist politicians in high office had been broken two years earlier with John Kennedy’s election as president. And on the campaign trail, the handsom e H o ff was often described as Kennedyesque, suggesting that some o f the presi dent’s charisma had rubbed off on the dashing young Vermonter. Another powerful blow fell on the Vermont Republican Party in 1964 when G O P presidential candidate Barry Goldwater failed to carry the state. Until then, Vermont had faithfully handed the Republican nominee its handful o f electoral votes every four years, even when almost every other state in the Union was voting Democratic. Goldwater s poor showing also dragged down several G O P can didates for statewide offices in Vermont. T he 1964 elections highlighted an ideological split between the state and national Republican parties that is once again particularly pronounced today. T he national G O P s growing conservatism on social and cultural issues caused m any typically m oderate Verm ont Republicans to reassess their 1 JI*

party allegiance, says M iddlebury College political scientist Eric Davis. H arder-right conservatives may have been energized by the victories o f Ronald Reagan in the 1980s, but that brand o f Republicanism has little in com m on with the Vermont variety, Davis points out. As a result, Vermonters who might once have voted straight Republican became more likely to split their tickets, thereby eroding the base o f the state GOP. T he shift away from Republican rule had become unstoppable by the m id-1960s, but in H and’s reckoning 1974 was the year when the G O P star finally set in Vermont. In that W ater gate-driven election, Democrats won most o f the statewide contests. And according to Garrison Nelson, it is only in recent years that the Vermont Republican Party reached its absolute nadir, at least in symbolic terms. He says the first part o f a two-stage disas ter occurred in 1998, when dairy farmer-turnedmovie actor Fred Tuttle became the Republican nom inee for the U.S. Senate. A substantial num ber o f Vermonters had decided to treat the Republican primary as a joke. T hen, in 2001, the state G O P lost its last big-foot officeholder with James Jeffords’ abandonm ent o f the party under whose banner he had won elections for more than 30 years. .• In 2002, however, the Republicans managed to stage a mini-comeback — albeit with the help o f a split left — electing Jim Douglas as governor and giving the party a majority o f seats in the Vermont House. Does that mean a G O P revival is underway in Vermont? Probably not, says Eric Davis. The factors that led to the party’s fall have not vanished, he notes, adding that the Republicans still lack the resources and the electoral base to wage several successful campaigns simultaneously. The G O P would do well to focus in 2004 on re-electing Douglas and on clinging to its edge in the House, Davis suggests. Vermont Republicans m ust also decide whether to remain true to their own traditions or to align with the m uch more conservative nation al party o f George W. Bush and Dick Cheney. T he tem ptation to move right could prove power ful, Nelson says, since “there’s definitely money available for a G O P resurgence in Vermont — if the Republicans adopt the national party agen da.” But that could prove to be a fatal miscalcula tion, he adds. H istory shows, says Nelson, that Republicans succeed in Vermont to the degree that they remain true to their party’s origins. ® n Ifcf i •'M lt.1 - m u

A STORY

D A V ID W ARNER I MAGE

ANDY DUBACK How to Turn Distress in to Success, July 6,

4:30 p.m. (Museum tour, 1:30 p.m.; Sideshows, 2:30 p.m.; Circus, 3:30 p.m.) Bread & Puppet Theater and Museum, Rt. 122, Glover, 525-6031.

s a newly minted Vermonter, I made my first pilgrimage to Bread & Puppet Theater’s fabled farm in Glover last Sunday. I knew about it, of course; anyone who’s stud ied the development of alternative theater in the last half-century does. And I moved here this spring from Philadelphia, where scores of “puppetistas” were arrested during the 2000 Republican National Convention for doing what B&P founder Peter Schumann has been doing for decades: using masks and giant puppets to <• make political statements that transcend words. But just being aware of Bread & Puppet’s influence is not the same as going to the source. My chief task was to review How to Turn Distress into Success, a perform ance piece by B&P which was presented to acclaim in Paris this spring and which made its Vermont debut on Sunday. Presented in the group’s barn-like theater space, it was preceded by the usual array of outdoor festivities — sideshows, a circus and the serving of bread. The circus, Schumann told the audience, will under go some changes before next week, so I’m reporting on a combination of events that may not be replicated exact ly. But that’s part of the appeal of any B&P perform ance, I suspect: the sense that within a carefully but loosely defined structure each moment is being invented as we’re watching it — a once-in-a-lifetime alchemy. At the same time, there is a sense of everything mov ing according to a master plan. The scrawled signage, the “Cheap Art’’ gallery-in-a-bus, the unhurried progress from one event to another — the elements seem almost haphazard, but in fact reflect a single controlling aes thetic: a belief in the primal power of handmade things.

Business-suited men grab hold of Truth like butchers dismembering cattle. Nowhere is that power more in evidence than in the Bread & Puppet Museum. Housed in the 1863 barn origi nal to the farm property, the collection is an astonishing testament to the beauty, variety and sheer volume of art work created by Schumann and his disciples over the last 40 years. O n Sunday, his wife Elka led a tour of the muse um -before the sideshows began. Her candor was disarming. “Now that we’re not rich and famous, we’re leg endary,” she said, reflecting on Bread & Puppet’s shift (in the eyes of certain critics and festival curators) from cut ting edge to old guard. She recounted the fate of the wildly popular Domestic Resurrection Circus, the sum mer spectacle Schumann cancelled five years ago after crowd-control problems culminated in a fatal fight. And she explained B&P’s involvement in protests and pageants past. Almost every inch of the barn is crammed with pup pets, masks, reliefs, friezes: “Peter has a horror of a vacu

um ,” said Elka. The interior reminds some observers of a cathedral; the masks themselves variously suggest Easter Island, Modigliani, Punch and Judy. Tableaux are arranged to suggest specific performances frozen in time, and it is a credit to Schumann and his fellow artisans that all the characters — Mother Earth, Uncle Fatso, the rumpled Garbagemen and hard-working Washerwomen — seem alive even in repose. But it’s at the sideshows that the^ really come to life. Back in Domestic Resurrection days, sideshows would crop up at multiple locales in the meadow and surround ing woods; this Sunday, there was only one location (mid-meadow) and one simple red-drape backdrop. I saw two shows. The first was “The King’s Story,” a B&P clas sic that makes a riveting anti-militarist statement through the simplest of parables: Fearing a dragon, a king hires a great warrior who turns his powers against the king and his people and is himself conquered by death. The king and his subjects are rod puppets gracefully manipulated by puppeteers behind the drape; the war rior moves with measured, ominous force. In the second show, the exuberant, white-clad intern troupe took us through a series of pictographs and group recitations — including a chicken-soup recipe sung as a round — about how to live one’s life, culminating in what must be a key B&P credo: “Protest and Survive!” Peter Schumann, also in white and wearing a straw hat, acted as a kind of pied piper, blowing on two horns and announcing that the “Victory Over Everything Circus” was about to begin. Some of the performers regrouped into a surprisingly swingin’ Dixieland band in front of the B&P bus. Then the rest of the troupe reap peared on the hill behind us, playing kazoos. Led by the mustachioed, potbellied Mayor and carrying signs saying “Victor,” they marched into the circus ring and through a handheld arch of triumph. A jaded child muttered, “They do that every time.” Maybe so, but to my newbie eyes this was a socko begin ning — a surprising, swaggering set-up for the show and its satirical target: the forces that feed our hunger to win and to consume, even as we destroy ourselves in the process. Two animal acts, with multi-person puppets as the animals and actors as the trainers, illustrated the point particularly well: Ms. Deflation and the Zebras of Consumer Confidence, who morphed into prisoners with shopping-bag heads, and Ms. Ecological Crisis and Her Tigers o f Consumption, who wound up leaping through the EPA loophole and chasing their own tails before swallowing up Ms. Crisis. In another brief but vivid skit, the National Nation Construction Company, with its spunky yellow bulldozer, demonstrated how to leave countries worse off than they were before. The “American Hero” game-show segment offered congratulations to a “Republocrat” senator: “He bravely voted for the war and ignored his conscience!” In a bril liant little dig at FCC deregulation, a majorette from AOL Time-Warner’s National Truth Orchestra tried to

silence the Community Information Jam, but the audi ence, literally all ears, had other ideas. And in a truly magical moment, a team of blue and white horses gal loped by. At the conclusion, Schumann entered as Uncle Sam on stilts, to the tune of “When the Saints Come Marchin’ In,” then made a point of telling the crowd that B&P interns had put the circus together in just five days. I’m not sure whether he meant that remark as a compliment or an excuse; in any case, it seemed in line with the state ment he made about changing the circus before next week. I hope it won’t be changed too much. There was a try-anything inventiveness about “Victory Over Every thing” that may well have been the direct result of time constraints, and it would be a shame to sacrifice that free-wheeling spirit for a more polished product. In fact, I missed that spontaneity a bit in How to Turn Distress Into Success. After the open-hearted, relaxed atmosphere of the circus and the sharing of fresh-baked bread, it was kind of a letdown to be crowded into a more controlled environment and placed in the role of Audience, albeit on wooden bleachers in a barn with a dirt floor. And, because the circus was fast-paced and full of surprises, its zingers zinged more sharply; Distress, a dissection of how a government convinces its citizens to support war, builds its case so deliberately that it’s easier to predict how the argument will turn out. That said, the clarity o f its allegory packs a cumulative punch, and some of the images are unforgettable. It’s a Pilgrims Progress of sorts, except that the Pilgrim is a pas sive vessel, a puppet Student of Success. He is carted onstage to be given a lesson by a professorial emcee on how to turn distress — say, an attack on twin skyscrapers — into something happier, like the creation of an enemy. A female Truth figure in a yellow, stringy wig wheels in a baby carriage marked Population; when the towers go down, the baby carriage is toppled and demons are released. Business-suited men with big white heads use a Rube Goldbergian contraption to show how easily a Friend can be transformed into an Enemy, then grab hold o f Truth like butchers dismembering cattle. The tears fall from Truth’s mask and become drumsticks — a stunning coup de theatre. In an extraordinary final image, nine huge women’s heads slowly move into the playing space. Using a flip chart, the professor explains the difference between the terrorist and the horrorist, Truth takes off her mask and the mothers gradually retreat. O n Sunday, at the moment the baby carriage top pled, an infant in the audience wailed with terrifying timeliness, and its mother awkwardly made an exit, maneuvering an unwieldy sliding barn door. I couldn’t help thinking, “This wouldn’t have happened if we’d been outside.” Just one afternoon of Bread & Puppet au naturel and I was already getting testy about theater indoors. © •■*»#«

Champlain Club

riving up College Street just east of Union, you pass a modern, unmarked brick building. Its tall, narrow windows, separated by slender brick columns, suggest a cage. But it’s immediately clear from the windows’ pleasant glow that no one’s being forced to stay inside. You’re being kept out. The building belongs to the Ethan Allen Club, one of several private social clubs in Burlington. If you ask why they’re trying to keep you out, they’ll say they’re not. They’re just careful about who they let in. It’s no secret that the Queen City is home to nationally rec ognized organizations like the Elks, the VFW, the O dd Fellows and the Eagles. But it’s possible to live next door to one of Burlington’s local clubs and never know what the devil goes on in there. Privacy is great and all, but I think the history and traditions of our private clubs should be public domain. We can learn a lot about this town by looking at why these clubs were founded, who belongs and why. Getting inside is not just about satisfying my curiosity... right?

Friday is Poker Night at the Samuel D. Champlain Club on Crowley Street in the Old North End. A wooden sign and a ship’s wheel greet anyone who travels down this quiet, dead-end street to find the two-story gray building. A swing-dance class is meeting upstairs in the function room, but the down stairs lounge admits members only. Trustee Tom Carr, who retired after 27 years with the Burlington Electric Department, has invited me to join the five men and women gathered around the card table. They all wear T-shirts and jeans — except for Carr, who looks grandfatherly in his sport coat as he puffs on a curvy wooden pipe. Plaques and tro phies line the walls, along with a print of a sailing ship, and a sign asserting, “Old age and treachery will overcome youth and skill.” Before joining the game, I order a Rolling Rock at the bar and check out the pool room. The club owns two tables where members can play “German Club Eight Ball” for 50 cents a game. A turn at the 23-foot shuffleboard table is free. O n the far wall hangs a wood en emblem bearing the club’s original name — Goethe Lodge 592 Deutscher Orden der Harugari (German Order of Friendship and Humanity) and the year it was founded, 1892. The trustees changed the name in 1995, but people still call it “the German Club.” For years, only German-speaking males of German descent could

join, and they had to be 16 or older, capable of support ing a family and of “good moral character.” German influence faded after World War II, and in the 1960s the club started admitting women. Today its members have little in common other than an interest in boating and a fondness for the neighborhood clubhouse. Anyone can fill out an application; members vote on new initiates. Appli cants have been refused in the past, but Carr claims that’s extremely rare. While Em checking out the pool room, the dancers upstairs shake the ceiling, ratding the miniature Clydesdales inside the Budweiser King of Beers pooltable lamp. “Good thing you didn’t come on a contradance night,” someone shouts from the poker table. No one’s complaining about the noise, though. The club’s 55 members pay annual dues of $50, or $75 per couple, and the rent from the dances is more than welcome. The volunteer-run club keeps overhead low. Members take turns cleaning the bathroom and run ning to Costco for supplies. Everyone’s friendly during the card game, even though I accumulate a hefty pile of chips on a particularly lucky hand o f ‘Anaconda.”

support network established the club in 1963. As Burlington has changed over the years, so has the club, which operates independently of the USJB. Today many of St. John’s 150 members still belong to the Catholic council, but not all. Club membership is affordable — $35 for the first year, $25 every year after that — and Hathaway has made a point of telling me that members are “black, white, straight, gay, blue-collar, white-collar, young, old — we’re open to everyone.” He credits this atmosphere for St. John’s survival. Most of the other New England club houses have long since closed. The crowd at karaoke is certainly mixed. Silverhaired regulars mingle with middle-aged couples while twentysomething men and women in tight jeans and tank tops play pool. Host Bolyard is active in Ver mont Gay Social Alternatives and used to run karaoke at 135 Pearl. Michelle Jordan, a 30ish woman who once tended bar here, sits with her friend Theresa Doro, enjoying a drink after a long week. Jordan tells me she usually comes here for the sunsets. Doro says she enjoys just hanging out with “regular people.”

Friday nights get a little rowdy at the St. John's

In many respects, the Ethan Allen Club is the

Club, a squat brick building in the old working-class Lakeside neighborhood in Burlington’s South End. Club member Bob Bolyard hosts karaoke, which is free and open to the public. I’m too chicken to stand up and sing, especially before I’ve had anything to drink, so I order a dollar draft of Pabst Blue Ribbon. No one here has heard yet that PBR is trendy. The St. John’s Club is not at all trendy, and therein lies its charm. The seats are vinyl, the tables Formica, the air smoky, the music loud. On weekdays the Blodgett employees from next door drop in for lunch. Club manager Gary Hathaway and cook Joey Cote prepare and serve a daily special. Tuesdays it’s meatloaf; Wednesdays are three-dollar burger days. Hathaway praises the club and its members with an enthusiasm that must come in handy in his part-time career as a pro-wrestling promoter. Besides overseeing meals and tending bar, he checks in on a member who has cancer, making sure he gets his Meals on Wheels every day. Its not uncommon for the club to hold fundraisers to help pay a sick member’s medical expenses. St. John’s is named for the Union St. Jean Baptiste, Council 294. Founded in 1900, this Franco-American

opposite of the St. Johns Club. For one thing, there’s the dress code in the dining room: no shorts, jeans or sneakers. And the EAC advertises itself as exclusive. I thought they might want to keep me out. But when I call, a club employee hooks me up with treasurer Marcia DeRosia, who invites me to lunch. A blast of air conditioning greets me in the carpeted foyer as I hurry past a print depicting the Vanderbilt townhouses and country estates. The foyer also houses the EAC’s original horse-drawn fire engine, a symbol of its roots as a volunteer fire company established in 1857. The club proudly touts its association with fire fighters, though I can’t imagine the blue-collar heroes of 9/11 stopping by after work for a brewski. DeRosia owns a health-care software company. When I ask her age, she laughs and says, “I’m not telling you that.” She wears a skirt and sports dangly earrings and makeup, but she’s a biker babe at heart — her other car is a Harley. She meets me at the bar, smoking a Marlboro Light. I climb onto one of the leather barstools beside her. A few gray-haired men eat red meat »

while reading the Wall StreetJournal or watching CNBC on the bar TV. Besides the young woman in a black skirt and sleeveless top behind the counter, DeRosia and I are the only females in the place. The Ethan Allen Club began admitting women — under fierce political pressure — in 1991. De Rosia was the first. She wasn’t making a statement; she knew members through business and they invited her in. Since the club went co-ed, membership has declined. In the ’80s it had 500 or 600 members and a waiting list. Today the total is 250. DeRosia estimates that only 20 are women — down From 40 in the early 1990s. “It wasn’t what they thought it would be,” she tells me. W hat they thought it would be was what most people think it is: a gathering place where Burling ton’s power elite make back-room business deals. DeRosia bluntly calls that “bullshit.” “We don’t have any secret little meetings or types of ceremonies or anything,” she had informed me on the phone. But over a cheeseburger — sans bun — she reveals that membership does have its privileges. “When I’ve hit ups and downs with my business,” she says, “there’s always someone here to be a sounding board.” After lunch we tour the posh, red-walled dining room, the health club, the bowling lanes and the “pump room,” where members park their kids for the night in front of a big-screen TV. Beyond the pump room there actually is a dimly lit “back room.” A round wooden card table takes up most of the space. Members’ personalized beer steins decorate the walls. At the end of our tour, DeRosia encourages me to join. All I’d have to do is find a member to sponsor me. If no one raises any objections, the trustees will vote me in. Oh, yeah, and there is the matter of annual fees: Dues and maintenance costs for resident members under 37 total $800, and once you’ve crossed that age threshold, you can add another thou. All those perks ain’t cheap.

If you've never been a member of the Klifa Club, you probably don’t know it exists, and that’s just fine as far as its female members are concerned. The club owns an elegant 19th-century red-brick house on upper Pearl Street. Fluted Ionic columns flank the entrance. A discreet brass plate on the door reads simply, “Klifa.” I had tried for weeks to find out what goes on in there. I left messages on the club’s answering machine, stuck a note in the door, even posted a let ter. I asked everyone I know about the Klifa Club. “The what club?” people ask, baffled. But a helpful tip from Marcia DeRosia led to a series of phone calls culminating in my meeting with club president Eleanor Smith. She doesn’t know why she never got my note or messages. She’s only discov ered the letter the morning she arrives to give me a cursory tour.

It’s the hottest morning of the summer so far. Smith ushers me into the red-carpeted foyer. She looks fresh, clean and fit in khaki shorts and a snug tank top. We sit in a large living room where the club sets up tables for luncheons and bridge parties. Perched on the edge of the stiff antique couch, I feel like a sweaty pig. The 68-year-old homemaker and library volunteer admits she was reluctant to meet with me. She’s afraid it might upset the members. “It’s not that we have anything,to hide,” she says. “We just like to keep a low profile.” The Klifa Club consists of 100 middle-aged and elderly ladies who pay $125 a year to have luncheons twice a month. The 12 women who founded the organization in 1900 named it after the Icelandic word for “to climb.” According to Smith, the club’s purpose is “to expand our minds.” Over the years, members have been involved in social and charitable causes, but the main focus has always been the luncheons, which attract a diverse array of speakers. This year writer Joe Citro and TV anchor Marselis Parsons addressed the club. So why all the secrecy? O r was Parsons’ “lecture” really a lurid strip tease? O n second thought, maybe some things should remain private.

The Athena Club proves almost as elusive as the Klifa, though fo.r different reasons. The club owns the stately brick mansion on the corner of Willard and Pearl Streets. A single house separates Athena from Klifa, though they might as well be on opposite sides of town — they don’t seem to talk much, despite the fact that they’re both women’s clubs founded in the early 1900s. The women of Athena aren’t as active as they used to be. I have to sneak in like a spy for a meeting of the Burlington Chess Club one Thursday night. In the massive living room, the chess players — mostly

men — remain focused on their games as I poke around on a selfguided tour. A small desk in the coatroom holds the club phone. Beside it, a sign in neat cursive writing asks patrons to contribute 25 cents when making a call. Above the desk hangs a handwritten note from Mrs. Coolidge’s secretary, who wrote to say the First Lady would accept an honorary membership. When I ask Bill McGrath, the Burlington High School teacher who runs the club, what he can tell me about the Athenas, he refers me to his 89-year-old m oth er Pearl, who’s been a member for nearly 30 years. She explains that the club is dying out — literally. Most of the 39 members are elder ly. Though j,hey still chip in $25 a year, barely half can make it to the monthly bridge games. “We used to have card parties, porch sales, many different little things like that,” she tells me. “But no one is capable of doing that anymore.” McGrath also recommends I read Karen Madden’s graduate the sis, “Ready to Work: Women in Vermont and Michigan from Suffrage to Republican Party Politics.” In it, Madden docu ments the club’s founding in 1906 as the Book and Thimble Club — they changed the name in 1907. Madden chronicles the club’s civic service: In 1913 members organized the first women’s public restroom in Vermont. In 1918 they pushed the city to hire a female police officer. During one meeting they took up a collection for Madame Curie to buy a gram of radium. By 1925 their ranks had swelled to 150 women who were active in all sorts of civic projects, from the installation.of traffic lights to the construction of the airport. But club membership has dwin dled as the women have aged. Many of them were wives of local Republican politicians, and as the Democrats took over city govern ment, the women lost their politi cal clout. Today the club faces extinction. Current club trustees are considering selling the build ing, and the chess club has already started looking for another meet ing place. McGrath maintains that the club is open to new members, women who are “young, enthusi astic and willing to work,” but with all the kids’ soccer practice and Pilates workouts, who has time for a service club? No one at Athena, or Klifa, seemed surprised by Athena’s decline. When pressed, Klifa’s president admitted that they, too, have struggled financially in the past few years. Unlike the other clubs, they’ve remained true to their original mandate. Maybe the town just isn’t big enough for both of them anymore. But, hey, other local groups could use a private clubhouse. Athena could become a haven for Vietnamese, Bosnian or Bantu immigrants, or open its doors to the Women of Color Alliance. My friends and I could take over the club, though we would probably just play Scrabble, watch reruns of Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and spy on Klifa. ® * *•*'

— some have lived and worked in this country for more than 20 years — in the last year and a half they have seen their fundamental civil liberties erode as part o f the federal government’s anti-ter rorism crusade. A new report released last week by a national advocacy group reveals that in many ways, U.S. government policies towards immigrants now bear a disturbing resemblance to those o f a totalitarian regime. You won’t hear many o f the older men in the Colchester mosque complain about America’s cur rent political climate. They smile politely, dismissing questions about discrimination and racial profiling w ith a wave o f the hand. Americans are very nice and treat us well, they say. T hey adm it they’re more likely to be pulled aside in the airport for special searches and rigorous questioning, but things could be much worse. “I come from a part o f the world, the West Bank, where every 10 miles you have someone strip you naked,” says M ahm oud Hayyat, a Palestinian who has lived in M iddlebury for more than 24 years. “This is m oderate com pared to w hat we go through whenev er we go to Palestine.”

“ Patriot” acts? The Bill of has never been so wronged STORY/RACHEL NEUMANN IMAGE/MICHAEL TONN

there was a popular bumper sticker, seen mostly on the back of old VW vans, that said: “What if there was a war and nobody came?” I am reminded of that bumper sticker now, in light of this administration’s unprecedented attack on civil liberties. W hat if our basic rights were taken away and no one noticed? W hat if our system of checks and balances was destroyed and everyone remained convinced it was happening to someone else? Under current legislation, if you are “suspected” of terrorist activity, you can be picked up and held indefinitely, without charges and without access to a lawyer. If ydur loved ones call to find out where you are or if you are OK, they will be told noth ing. After all, to disclose your whereabouts would infringe on your right to privacy. Don’t bother clutching your passport to your chest; this law applies to all U.S. citizens. And, if PATRIOT Act II passes, you may no longer even be a citizen. Under this proposed legislation, if you attend a legal

ing the need for warrants before searching video or music store records. • The new Homeland Security Department, whose massive reorganization of more than 22 federal agencies includes a beefedup immigration office, renamed the Bureau of Border and Transportation Security, with a focus on catching immigrant vio lations and keeping people outside of U.S. borders. • Total Information Awareness, recently renamed “Terrorist Information Awareness,” which hopes to predict terrorist actions by analyzing such transactions as passport applications, visas, work permits, driver’s licenses, car rentals, airline ticket purchas es, arrests or reports of suspicious activities. TLA would make financial, education, medical and housing records, as well as bio metric identification databases based on fingerprints, irises, facial shapes and even how a person walks, available to U.S. agents. If all this weren’t enough, proposed legislation would increase the PATRIOT Act’s powers. The Center for Public

The attack on civil liberties hasn’ t been subtle;, rather, it has erred on the side of being so extreme that it seems surreal. protest sponsored by an organization the government has listed as “terrorist,” you may be deported and your citizenship revoked. This is true even if you are only suspected of terrorist activity and nothing has been proven. More specifically, accord ing to Anita Ramasastry of the online legal guide FindLaw, a U.S. citizen may be expatriated “if, with the intent to relin quish his nationality, he becomes a member of, or provides material support to, a group that the United States has desig nated as a ‘terrorist organization.’” I wish this were an exaggeration. The attack on civil liber ties hasn’t been subtle; rather, it has erred on the side of being so extreme that it seems surreal. Some of the lowlights include: • The USA PATRIOT Act creates a new crime of “domes tic terrorism” — defined so broadly as to include civil dist obedience and other nonviolent forms of resistance. The J PATRIOT Act also greatly reduces free speech and privacy, allowing for Internet and library surveillance and eliminat

Integrity (www.publicintegrity.org) lists the foil provisions of the act, which include, besides the deportation of citizens who are suspected of consorting with or supporting terrorists: • Immunity from liability for law enforcement officials engaging in spying operations against the American people; • Immunity from liability for businesses and employees that report “suspected terrorists” to the federal government, no matter how unfounded, racist or malicious the tip may be. Furthermore, PATRIOT II explicitly allows the indefinite detention of citizens, incommunicado, without charges, and without releasing their names to their own family members. And unlike PATRIOT Act 1, which expires in 2004 unless it passes another majority vote, PATRIOT Act II never expires and removes the expiration date on PATRIOT I. I f * y o u ' r e x x crb e n g a i g e d in any activity that could even be suspected of terrorism, no need to worry, right? Wrong. According to a Washington Post

report, the Government Accounting Office has found that the majority of people prosecuted under new anti terrorism security measures were being pursued for reasons unrelated to terrorism, including credit-card fraud and drug violations. “Many of [the] terrorism powers were actually being asked for as a way of increasing the government’s authority in other areas,” Tim Edgar of the ACLU said in the report. rPerhaps no one you know personally has been arrested. Perhaps you’ve had no problem at airports. One of the reasons that the response to aggressive Homeland Security Measures has been muted is that, so far, the primary targets of “home land security" have been immigrants, Arab-Americans and South Asian-Americans.

Tirien Steinbach, a California lawyer who works with indigent clients, says she has seen a noted increase in harassment of her clients since the passage of the act. “It’s not the policies them selves,” she says, “but the climate of repression that lets law enforcement feel as if they can get away with anything these days.” She sees her clients, and immigrant groups that have come under attack, as canaries in the coal mine — a warning signal that others should heed. “Everyone thinks it only happens to some other kind of people,” she says, “and by the time they real ize the extent of the repression, it will be too late.” Mac Scott, of the New York-based Coalition for the Human Rights of Immigrants (CHRI), agrees. “The effects on immi grant communities has been devastating,” he says. “So many people have had family members deported, detained or — at the very least — interrogated.” While it is difficult to get the exact number of immigrants detained and deported, since the government won’t release these numbers, the ACLU, CHRI and other organizations put the number as reliably in the thousands nationwide. What can’t be measured, however, is the increase in general harassment that immigrants have experienced and the heightened level of fear they feel. Because of that increased repression, some members of immigrant communities have been wary of organizing for fear of being targeted for harassment. Still, many have reacted to the attacks by organizing within their communities and reaching out to new allies. ^ “We have to work as a coalition,” says Tram Nguyen of Colorlines, a national quarterly focused on race and public poli cy. “Communities are under such attack that they have to speak out. Despite the intense fear, we have seen Latino, South Asian r

This recognition has also created an unusual alliance of libertarians, progressives and conservatives. Magazines such as the John Birch Society’s The New American and groups including the American Conservative Union and the Eagle Forum have come out against the PATRIOT Act, TLA and the Home land Security Department. In part, the criticism from the right comes from those who remember a time when conservatism supposedly stood for small government, less bureaucra cy and more individual liberty. One of the largest indicators of the new alliances forming in support of civil liberties, and the biggest victo ry for rights advocates, has been the success of the Bill of Rights Defense Committee (www.BORDC. org) in encouraging communities to pass res olutions and ordinances repudiating the PATRIOT Act and reaffirming the Bill of Rights. Since the passage of the PATRIOT Act in October 2001, more than 100 cities, towns and counties, and three states — Alaska, Hawaii and Vermont — have passed resolutions directly opposing the leg islation and reaffirming the impor tance of basic civil liberties. While most of these resolutions are non-binding (so far only one city — Areata, California — has passed a binding ordinance), they do not mince words. Here is some of the lan- j guage from the Vermont resolution passed at the end of May 2003: ... while the prevention o f future ter rorist attacks is a critical national prior ity, it is equally important to preserve the fundamental civil liberties and per sonalfreedoms which were enshrined in the Bill o f Rights over 2 0 0 years ago, and which has been preserved through a constant vigilance and outcry against periodic threats to its existence...

In addition, Vermont Congress man Bernie Sanders has introduced legislation, the Freedom to Read Protection Act, that would exempt libraries and booksellers from having to turn over reading and purchasing records of their patrons — another erosion of privacy under PATRIOT ACT I. Close to 13 million people live in places that have passed resolutions in defense of the Bill of Rights. One would hope that federal legislators would recognize the concerns of their constituents and take a stronger stand in support of basic rights and liberties. Bill of Rights advocates see the upcoming fights over PATRIOT Act II and Terrorist Information Awareness, as well as the 2004 Presidential election, as key times to let legislators know that their stand on civil liberties issues will be carefully watched. Still, it is not enough to wait for politicians to act. We must disabuse ourselves of the notion that it is only “other people’s” liberties that are at stake. Our own government threatens our collective liberty far more than do outside sources. The response, as the Bill of Rights Defense Committees have shown, is to use our rights or lose them. Our right to think and speak for our selves without fear of spying neigh bors, surveillance cameras or retalia tion, is gravely threatened. Only our collective and coordinated resistance will stop that threat. ©

V JI held on $250,000 bail before finally being cleared and released. Mohamed’s attorney assured him he had grounds for a lawsuit against the government — until the 2001 terrorist attacks occurred. “Three months after September 11, my lawyer called me at home and said, ‘Ashraf, I cannot work on your case. The judge won’t consider it,”’ Mohamed recalls. “Why? ‘Because you’re Muslim and you’re an Arab.’ And that was the end of the story.” At the time, Mohamed was working on his Master’s degree in electrical engineering at the University of Vermont. W ithin months, he dropped out of the program, largely because of what he saw happening to his Muslim friends. Though many of them had advanced degrees from MIT, Harvard and other prestigious American universities, they were all being laid off from their jobs. Several returned to their home countries, fearing that as Arab Muslims, they would not find work here again. Last summer, Mohamed married an Egyptian woman and filed his application to bring her to the United States. As an American citizen, he should have had no problem being reunited quickly with his new wife. But 10 months later, Mohamed has yet to receive an answer from the U.S. government, despite

repeated inquiries both here and at the American embassy in Egypt. “I came to America because I know it is a free country. People can get their rights,” Mohamed says. “But now I find something here is destroyed. I’m an American citizen but I don’t feel like an American at all.” Mohamed’s troubles are not only common but mild compared to the experiences of other immigrants, par ticularly those from Arab countries. Last week, the Migration Policy Institute (MPI), a nonpartisan think tank in Washington, D.C., released an 18-month study of U.S. immigration policy since September 11. The report, entitled “America’s Challenge: Domestic Security, Civil Liberties, and National Unity After September 11,” found that not only have post-9/11 immigration policies stigmatized and alienated Araband Muslim-American communities, but they have done nothing to make Americans safer from future ter rorist attacks. If anything, the roundups, arrests, intimi dating interviews and detentions have made this coun try less safe. Consider, for example, the special registration pro gram launched by Attorney General John Ashcroft in June 2002. The program, formally named NSEERS — National Security Entry/Exit Registration System — required non-citizens from 25 Muslim countries to register their whereabouts with the government. Anyone who didn’t come-forward by the March 21 deadline faced criminal charges and possible arrest and deportation. The policy had major repercussions for Vermont in February and March when hundreds of Pakistani men were detained at the Canadian bor der, leaving their families with nowhere to go in the dead of winter. Although the program was officially discontinued three months ago, immigrants from those countries who did not register still face the pos sibility of prosecution. “It was a totally foolish plan from the very begin ning,” says Patrick Giantonio, executive director of Vermont Refugee Assistance. “W hat they were doing is-

M lfls S i

rjw 4k

chasing the U.S.’s greatest allies out of the United States.” As Giantonio points out, of the more than 82,000 individuals nationwide who came forward to register, only 11 had even remote connections to terrorist organizations. And thus far none has been linked to terrorist activities. Nevertheless, many were deported for minor violations. “No one has the numbers or the stories of what happened to a lot of those peo ple,” says Giantonio. O r consider all the “terrorism-related” indictments brought by the U.S. attorney general’s office in New Jersey since September 11, 2001. As Harper’s magazine reports this month, out of a total of 62 indictments, 60 were filed against Middle Eastern students for pay ing others to take their English-proficiency exams. Such heavy-handed tactics would have done noth ing to prevent the September 11 attacks, MPI points out, since all the hijackers would still be admitted to the United States today. “A1 Qaeda’s hijackers were carefully chosen to avoid detection,” the report notes. “All but two were educated men from middle-class families with no criminal records and no known con nection to terrorism. MPI found that the government’s policy of rounding up and detaining people based on their religion and country of origin — the overwhelming majority of whom are Muslim and/or from Arab countries — also failed to identify any terrorists liv ing in our midst. Apart from a handful of people charged with routine immigration violations or petty criminal offenses, the roundups only served to fuel the public’s suspicion and distrust of Arab- and Muslim-Americans and to undermine those commu nities’ willingness to assist in the war on terrorism. Even more disturbing are stories now coming to light about the more than 1200 people detained indefinitely in the weeks and months after 9/11, the majority of whom, again, were Muslims from Arab countries. Although their exact number is unknown — the U.S. government still refuses.^p say how many, who they were or what happened to them all — MPI has compiled information on 406 detainees, the most comprehensive survey to date of post-9/11 arrests. Even for advocates who are knowledgeable about this country’s harsh, punitive and often capricious treatment of immigrants, the MPI report reads more like a description of a totalitarian regime than of a democracy supposedly based on due process and the rule of law. O f the 406 detainees — one-third of whom came from either Egypt or Pakistan — most were held for weeks or months without ever being charged, often without access to counsel or even their families knowing their whereabouts. “Many of the detainees were subjected to solitary confinement, 24hour lighting of cells and physical abuse,” the report notes. And more than half were subjected to an “FBI hold,” which meant they were kept in jail even after a judge ordered them released or deported. Nevertheless, MPI discovered that, unlike the 9/11 hijackers, the majority of non-citizens detained have “significant ties to the United States and roots in their communities.” More than 46 percent have lived in the United States at least six years. At least half have children, spouses or other family members-in this country. And many were arrested for no other reason than a neighbor or co-worker reported them to police because of their appearance or country of origin. I f t l i e x * e » s su ' b a r i g i i t . spot in the report, it’s what MPI calls the “Muslim moment” — a resurgence of political and civic activity among Muslim- and Arab-Americans in the wake of 9/11. Nationally, voter registration by Arabs and Muslim immigrants is on the rise, as is the number of applications for naturalization. No one from the Islamic Center of Vermont was swept up in the government roundups or detained and questioned by the FBI. And not all the young men sound as bitter and frustrated as Mohamed. When Amir Lulic, a Bosnian immigrant living in Vermont, was asked if he has experienced discrimina tion from police or government officials in Vermont, he pulls out a recruitment pamphlet from the Burlington Police Department. “No,” he says, “they want us to work for them now.” The other men in the room laugh. “Things are better in Vermont than elsewhere,” adds Hayyat. “I hope it will stay that way.” (7)

ll admit it: I was once one of those people who pooh-poohed the frankfurter. Sure, I loved ’em as a kid growing up in Syracuse, New York, where nearby Liverpool landmark Heid’s has been dispensing Coney Islands and white, German-style franks for more than a century. But my more discerning STORY taste buds managed to somehow assert TOM HUNTINGTON themselves during adulthood, and wieners were mostly cast by the wayside. Still, I couldn’t wait to sink my teeth into I MAGE M A T T H E W one. Freed from my past reluctance, I set out on my quest with a near giddy delight. First THORSEN stop: Lois “the Hot Dog Lady” Bodoky. The venerable Church Street vendor has been serving up Vermont’s own McKenzie franks in Bouyea-Fassett’s buns for three decades. One bite into my “ballpark dog” with mus tard, relish and raw onion — all for a whop ping $1.25 — and I’m back in a big way. Walking up the street with my quickly disap pearing prize in hand, I wonder why it took me so long to see the light in the meaty links. What I’m rediscovering is as American as baseball, apple pie and the PATRIOT Act — though we have Germany to thank for the original frankfurters and “dachshund” sausages that eventually became “hot dogs” on U.S. soil a century ago. Nowadays, region al wiener variations are as distinct as dialects, two of the most noted being New York City’s kosher foot-longs with mustard and sauer kraut and Chicago’s Vienna beef with multi ple toppings. Although the Green Mountain State may not have its own trademark con coction, the meaty tubules are luring devoted followers to increasing numbers of street carts and even some upscale restaurants. Friends from the Windy City have filled me in on the fanaticism surrounding the Chicago hot dog, a unique beast made from regionally exclusive Vienna beef franks and poppy-seed buns topped with specific fixings. “They rule all hot dogs,” proclaimed one friend, while the other explained, “It’s a reli gion there.” Vermonters need only to travel to Montpelier to find the legendary links — or as close a facsimile as you can get in the Green Mountain State. The Conoscenti “Ya Dog” street cart serves up crowd-drawing Chicagostyle dogs, Italian beef sandwiches and pizza during the lunch hour Tuesday through Friday in the shaded Christ Church courtyard. Since the specialty buns and beef are vir tually impossible to come by, sesame-seed buns and Farmland beef-and-pork franks are used instead. “They’re a lot more flavorful than the Vienna,” offers Chicago transplant Dale Conoscenti, though he admits, “It’s kind of a sacrilege to say that.” The top pings, however, are true to tradition. Visitors can take their naked dog or “drag it through the garden,” as they say in the Windy City, meaning adding mustard, ketchup, sweet

relish, raw onions, chopped tomato, sauer kraut, blazing inch-long sport peppers and a dill pickle spear crown. The heaping creation is fresh-tasting and spectacular, a flavorful fusion of savory, salty, sweet and spicy dancing together in deli cious agreement. “That’s the best dog you ever had,” says Dale’s dad, Tony Conoscenti, matter-of-factly. Adds Dale, “It’s not just eating a hot dog. It’s an experience.” Starting next week, homemade toppings

will be on tap Tuesdays in Richmond, when Blue Seal chef-owner Deb Weinstein will be grilling dogs and other goodies for th e ^ 'y p lunchtime crowd from an outdoor stand she calls “The Good Dog.” Weinstein started the stand several years ago, then took a twoyear hiatus. Repeated requests from jonesing locals convinced her to bring it back. Weinstein’s own spicy mustard and chili ketchup will join grilled red onions and roasted peppers as topping options for bar becued McKenzie franks. Though sausages, fish tacos and grilled veggie wraps will also be on the menu, Weinstein says dogs have always been her best seller. “It’s easy lunch and it’s not a huge amount of food, plus you’re not sitting around for an hour when you don’t have that kind of time,” she explains. “It’s just fun in the summer.” In Burlington, Bodoky — who turns 81 on the 4th of July — remains an icon of retro simplicity. Her ridiculously low prices seem as dated as her trademark beehive do. “The Hot Dog Lady” first rolled her cart out 31 years ago after her Church Street beauty business burned down along with 20 other shops. Back then, cars could still cruise the street and “peddlers” had to keep their carts rolling — until she came up with the idea of having assigned stations. Once the only hot dog game in town, Bodoky barely bats a mascara-laden eyelash at the competition caused by the three other frankfurter carts that have since made tracks to the marketplace. “People love hot dogs, just ’cause they’re a good of American quick snack,” she explains while fielding a steady stream of loyal patrons on a scorching after noon last week. “They’ve always been popular.” Jeff Earl of Jay, New York, saddles up for a kraut dog — “a big favorite,” according to Bodoky — while his two teenage sons opt for the more straightforward ketchup-and-mustard approach. “Part of it’s the convenience, and I just really like sausage,” explains Earl. “It’s very convenient sausage.” He adds that all three are big Vermont Expos fans and always enjoy the McKenzie franks when they check out the Single-A action at Centennial Field. Offers Earl, “It’s just a classic combination.” Baseball and hot dogs have gone hand-in-

For

glove since the turn of the century, when sausages became standard fare at stadiums. Franks are still top dog at major-league ballparks, according to the industry-funded National Hot Dog and Sausage Council, though an increasing variety of options — including sushi and, gasp, veggie dogs — are making inroads. At Centennial, McKenzies are back in buns for the second year following a brief hiatus when the Expos changed vendors. General manager C.J. Knudsen, who calls them “one of our staples at the ballpark,” says he expects to unload “between three to four thousand” dogs at “Hot Dog Heaven!” night on July 31, when franks will cost only a quarter. Despite their appeal, some dogged questions remain when it comes to wieners — like, what exactly are they? Most people don’t seem to know, and, frankly, most link-lovers don’t seem to care. “I know they’re bad for me,” explains Martha Murphy as she chows down on a dog with mustard and onions on Church Street. “After I eat one, my fingers swell up.” O r as one frank-o-phile says, “You just can’t worry about what’s in them.” Hmmm.

According to the United States Depart ment of Agriculture, frankfurters — hot dogs, wieners and bologna — are cooked sausages that can be made from beef, pork, turkey or chicken, or a combination of meat and poultry; the label must say which. Meats used in hot dogs come from the muscle of the animal; if byproducts such as the heart, kidney or liver ^re used, man ufacturers must name the parts and species and label them “with byproducts” or “with variety meats.” Beef or pork franks made from a single species do not include byproducts, while turkey

or chicken franks can contain some skin and fat. Other ingredients include water, curing agents, spices and seasonings. Hot dogs are also notori ously high in fat and sodium, though most brands — other standouts include Sabrett and Nathan’s Famous — generally offer lighter, less salty alternatives in grocery stores. One of the lowest in fat, and the most deli cious, is the Hebrew National brand, a Big Apple staple that can be procured at a few dif ferent places in Burlington. The impressive new Splash! at the Boathouse steams the succulent links, while the standard boiled version can be found during the day at all three Kevin’s Wicked Mountain H ot Dogs carts: two on Church Street and one in Waterfront Park. Combined with grilled Italian sausage and Polish kielbasa, the alluring aroma intoxicates after darkness descends upon lower Church Street. T hat’s when Kevin’s proprietor Kevin Shea, the undisputed top dog of the bottom block, attracts the nighttime crowd with suste nance and personality. O n a steamy Wednesday evening last week, Shea’s usual entourage of onlookers and link junkies are lined up for foot-long beef franks. Taking a bite of the eight-inch dog — sans every thing but a bun for full effect — I’m blown away by the firm frank’s bursting flavor. “It’s all beef, water, salt, garlic and no preser vatives,” Shea assures. “It’s all natural. It’s the best.” Shea, 37, says he and his wife Sue tried 25 different kinds of hot dogs, but “stopped when we had the Hebrew National.” The revered New York kosher franks, which are certified by a rabbi, have earned the dubious distinction of “dirty-water dogs” from New York street ven dors who change the boiling water just once a

week. Shea is quick to point out that he changes his daily. The wieners are also downright rugged. “That’s the thing about a Hebrew National,” he explains, waving a 12-incher to demonstrate his point. “They hold up. A normal dog doesn’t hold up.” “I think it’s one of the best because it’s a frank that doesn’t give you indigestion and doesn’t fuck with your cholesterol,” offers David Gilbert, who moved to Burlington three years ago from his native New York City. “I just like the taste,” he adds. “Eating a hot dog is like kissing a good piece of ass.” Shea, a sizable guy with black, combed-back hair, earring and a slight gut, moved to Burlington from Bristol, Connecticut* five years ago, working as a hair stylist. The hot dog cart was initially a means of making extra money on the side. After a year and a half, he decided to give the franks his full attention. “It wasn’t my intention to be the hot dog king of Vermont,” he explains earnestly. “I fell in love with it. I love the interaction with people. At night, it’s just so much fun.” As if on cue, a posse of passing hotties chimes in unison, “We love you. We get hot dogs from you every night.” Shea makes no bones about selling the “highest-priced hot dog in Burlington” — a jumbo dog is $3, which includes plenty of fix ings. But he boldly proclaims: “I sell the best hot dog in Burlington.” The late-night crowd is clearly his bread and butter — Kevin’s Wicked stays open ’til 3 a.m. “I think people get out of a bar and it’s good munch food,” he explains. “People look forward to a good hot dog that they can grab and walk home with.” ®

Burlington journalists Gerard Colby and Charlotte Dennett take on evil empire-builders.

a k w

Muckraking "arriage

heir lives seem ripped from the pages of a Graham Greene novel or an Indiana Jones screenplay. Writers Gerard Colby and Charlotte D ennett are seasoned investiga tive reporters living in Burlington who have tangled with assassins to alligators — 1 STORY while gathering information in some o f the SUSAN planet’s most perilous places. GREEN M any Vermonters will recognize this I MAGE married couple as highly visible supporters o f U.S. Congressman Bernie Sanders, JO R D A N S IL V E R M A N leaders o f a local National Writers Union chapter or hosts o f the weekly television cable-access program, “W here D o You Stand?” A nd where do they stand? D ennett, who is an attorney, and Colby see themselves as truth-seekers. Their journalism, whether for periodi cals or intensively researched tomes, has taken them into some fabled hearts of darkness. D uring the m id-1970s in Latin America, they scoured the Amazon for evidence o f the massacres o f indigenous

all the bills. T he generous advance they received for a book-in-progress is long gone. Nonetheless, an August deadline looms for delivering the new manuscript to the publisher, H arper Collins. The current project — tentatively titled The Kingdom and the Power — is derived from D ennett’s own history. H er father, ostensibly a Lebanon-based U.S. diplo mat, died in a 1947 plane crash under somewhat suspicious circumstances. Daniel D ennett was on a top-secret mis sion to determine the final route o f the Trans-Arabian Pipeline. His youngest daughter Charlotte, who was six m onths old at the time, has only recently begun to understand the implica tions o f that fatal assignment. “In the M iddle East, both Arabs and Jews have been screwed and set against each other — for oil,” says D ennett. “O nce you get into pipelines, the whole world starts to look different.”

It was getting dark. Local tribes were rumored to be former headhunters. “All we had were rubber boots and a couple of knives. I started to panic; Gerry remained calm,” Dennett says. tribes and plundering o f their oil-rich land. O n a subsequent journey to South Africa, the determ ined duo posed as biggame hunters in order to sniff out the ille gal movement o f arms and troops into neighboring Rhodesia. These are people who tend to experience larger-than-life tropical adventures in the idealistic pursuit o f a good scoop. W hile recently recounting such stories from their cluttered but cozy South Willard Street apartment, however, Colby and D ennett — now 57 and 56, respectively — also reveal a more everyday hum an dimension. Skippy, their golden Lab puppy, is chewing everything in sight, They adm it they’re broke, with maxed-out credit cards. D ennett’s freelance legal w ork doesn’t pay

Despite uncovering some egregious U.S. politics and ploys on foreign soil — and at a time when even the wishy-washy word “liberal” has been denigrated by the nation’s right wing — D ennett contends they are “patriotic Americans.” Colby, who displays the flag on the Fourth o f July, cites Jesus, M artin Luther King, Jr. and the Kennedys as his key influences. “I believe in democracy and social justice,” he explains. “I don’t believe in corporations.” Rep. Sanders appreciates these allies. “W hat I respect most about them is their total com m itm ent to progressive causes over the years,” he says. “They’re extremely knowledgeable folks who have really dedi cated their lives to making this world a bet-

ter place. Charlotte and Gerry play an active role in the local community, but their writing has interna tional significance.”

Charlotte Dennett's first glimpse of the world was in Beirut. W hen her father died, the family, which includes an older brother and sister, returned to the house where Daniel D ennett had grown up in Winchester, Massachusetts. At 16, his daughter returned to Lebanon for her junior and senior years o f high school. “Beirut casts a spell on any expatriate,” she suggests. “It was once known as the Paris o f the M iddle East. And from there, my m other and I visited Syria, Jordan, Jerusalem.” Back in New England, D ennett attended Wheaton College as an art history major. After graduating in 1969, she headed for Italy to pursue a Master’s degree in Florence. “My m other died o f a stroke while I was finishing my thesis,” D ennett says. “I was on my own. I went back to Lebanon and wrote for an English-language magazine, The Middle East Sketch.” D ennett was sent to places like Kuwait, O m an, Bahrain and Iran to interview city planners, oil ministers and monarchs. Expected to produce puff pieces, she kept a folder full o f ideas labeled “W hat Charlotte Couldn’t W rite.” To pursue more sub stantive stories, she got a job w ith the Beirut Daily Star that launched her political reporting career. One day, she was caught in the crossfire between Palestinians and a pro-Israeli Christian militia, laking shelter in a school, she escaped thanks to a man who had come to rescue his niece. They dodged bullets while fleeing in his car. O n vacation in Europe just as Lebanon’s fullscale civil war began in 1973, D ennett received a warning not to return to Beirut. Colby says now that she was “m arked.” So was her father three decades earlier, according to Dennett. She suspects the plane crash involved some sort o f sabotage because his diplom atic job was a cover for the clandestine work he did for the OSS, a precursor o f the CIA. I always knew he was a spy and I always thought that was cool,” says D ennett. “W hen Gerry and I were at the N ational Archives in the mid-1980s, we found my father m entioned in a history of the OSS. His code name was ‘C arat.’ His designation was X2, the highest level o f espionage. That got me wondering: Could there be some other explanation for his death?” Perhaps it was com m unists, in a C old W ar com petition for M iddle East hegemony. Colby thinks

Daniel D ennett may have been betrayed by the notorious Kim Philby, a senior British Secret Intelligence Services officer later caught spying for the Soviet Union. But there’s no proof, and a visit to Russia to hunt through declassified KGB files is npt possible — y£t. D ennett’s just-the-facts professionalism is bal anced by a private fascination with mystical matters. O n the advice o f a Ouija board, she and a British colleague went to Petra, a Bedouin city in Jordan renowned for its ancient ruins and red sandstone hills. Despite the otherworldly origin of their travel plans, the visit was unremarkable. “I really wanted to spend the night in a cave, which tourists can do, but we didn’t have enough tim e,” D ennett says. Later, while looking through old scrapbooks at the family hom e in Winchester, she came upon a 1946 letter from her parents: “It said, ‘We just had a vacation in Petra and spent the night in a cave.’” T hen D ennett noticed the date: “exactly 9 m onths before I was born.”

Dennett's peripatetic youth stands in sharp contrast to the formative years o f Gerry Colby, who was raised as a conservative Catholic in Bayside, Queens. As a teen, he even belonged to a gang that “rum bled,” he recalls. Luckily, Colby had greater aspirations. “I always wanted to be a writer,” he says. “I even wrote a novel [unpublished] at 15.” W hen his father died in 1965, Colby dropped out o f St. John’s University in New York and planned to enlist in the Air Force. “I wanted to fight for freedom,” he explains. “My m other inter vened. She told the draft board I was her sole means o f support. But she actually begged me to go back to school.” At the State University o f New York in O neonta, he was a right-leaning Republican. Colby edited the campus newspaper and participated in the debating club. Although he had been gung-ho about the Vietnam War, his views began to evolve in 1967 when one friend was killed in battle and another lost an arm. “T hat shook me up,” Colby says. “I started to research the history o f our involvement in Southeast Asia and wrote a three-part series for the paper about it. Suddenly, I was the darling of the left.” He went “Clean for Gene” by joining D em o cratic Senator Eugene M cC arthy’s presidential cam paign, although he later switched allegiance to Robert Kennedy. Colby protested against the war. W hen faced w ith the draft, he was prepared to join

the Army to work for the cause from the inside. However, he flunked his induction physical because o f asthma. Colby and his first wife Sarah eventually moved south to W ilm ington, Delaware, where the D u Pont dynasty reigns. H e started looking into the all-powerful family, whose self-described “science company” manufactures everything from chemicals to carpets. Colby's D u Pont: Behind the Nylon Curtain was published by Prentice-Hall in 1974, but the industrial clan apparently felt threatened. The dirty tricks began just as Colby’s marriage was crumbling. He made the mistake o f befriending a fellow journalist supposedly doing a D u Pontrelated story for Ramparts magazine. T he guy turned out to be a paid infiltrator. Behind the Nylon Curtain was dropped as a Book-of-the-M onth Club selection only 24 hours after it had been chosen. A positive story in Time magazine was similarly spiked. Even though Nylon Curtain ranked among the country’s top 50 best-sellers, Colby’s publisher slashed the print run by one-third. W hen a New York Times critic deemed the work “som ething o f a miracle,” read ers had a hard time finding copies. Colby filed a m ulti-m illion-dollar lawsuit against Prentice-Hall and D u Pont that dragged on for six years through appeals until the U.S. Supreme C ourt refused to hear it. He w ound up with virtually no com pensation and plenty o f legal expenses. By that time, though, he had

ured my hair was too long [to be safe in the repressive country]. So I went to a b arb er...” D ennett picks up the narrative: “...A n d there I am, frantic, thinking Gerry was being tortured — but he was just getting a haircut.” T he pair faced another potentially dangerous situation in Ecuador, where the guide who had promised to ferry them across a river full o f pira nhas never showed up. It was getting dark. Local tribes were rum ored to be former headhunters. “All we had were rubber boots and a couple of knives. I started to panic; Gerry remained calm,” D ennett says. “I thought if we followed the river, we were bound to find civilization,” adds Colby. “T hen we spotted a cow and heard children giggling. They paddled over and took us across — for money.” After tackling the Amazon cast o f characters in 1975, it was four years before they realized the connection to Nelson Rockefeller — which m eant taking on another American corporate family. “It’s not like we set out to go after them ,” muses Colby. “T h at’s where the facts took us.” In 1978 their anti-apartheid sentiments took them to the South African veldt. He had an assignment for The N ation; she was writing for a magazine called New Africa. Together, they embarked on the safari that allowed them a first hand look at military shenanigans.

Thy W ill Be Done, in 1984 Colby and D ennett

GERARD

Colby and Dennett initially disliked each other when they m et in 1975. Both were trying to land interviews with Yasser Arafat, who was at the U nited Nations in New York to give a speech. The Palestinian leader never did meet with either of them, but the intrepid journalists decided to work together on a developing story south o f the border. It took six difficult m onths in the jungles o f Central and South America for love to blossom. “We fought like cats and dogs down there,” acknowledges D ennett, who had traded the tribu lations o f Beirut for a treacherous trek through the Amazon. “W hat kept us together was our mission: uncovering genocide.” Their spats punctuated encounters with sm ug glers, informers, drug kingpins, Bible-thumpers, double agents and rum ors about a secret cache o f Nazi gold. Indian tribes were being wiped out and the rain forest raped, in part to support the gas-guzzling Yankee lifestyle up north. Colby and Dennett just can’t seem to escape the geopolitics of petroleum products. 1 hey wrote about their investigation in Thy Will Be Done, the Conquest o f the Amazon: Nelson Rockefeller and Evangelism in the Age o f Oil. The 960-page book, published by H arperCollins in 1995, details the exploits o f Christian fundam en talist missionaries and Rockefeller’s “vast business empire” in the region. Among a plethora o f amazing incidents in the Amazon basin, two o f the m ost terrifying m o ments now amuse Colby and D ennett. “I was detained in Guatem ala for photographing a gov ernm ent soldier outside a K entucky Fried Chicken restaurant,” he explains. “Charlotte saw me being taken away, ran back to the pensione and hid our notes.

COLBY

came to Vermont to make a docum entary about Bernie Sanders, then mayor o f Burlington. W hen the project fell through, they decided to stay put in a place that appeared compatible with their progressive views. But they discovered, o f course, th a t o p in ions vary. As a resident o f rural Fairfield, C olby ran for the state Senate as an in d ep en d en t in 1988 and 1990. “W e’d find dead an i mals in our m ailbox,” he says. “A squirrel, a rabbit, a b ird .” He lost the election, but went on to direct Sanders’ 1992 congressional campaign in Franklin County. D ennett worked as a paralegal in a law firm, passed the bar exam in 1996 and was Vermont chair o f the N ational Organization for W omen. He is now president o f the Cham plain Valley Labor Council, an A FL-CIO group for which she is the “director o f volunteers in politics.” How they find time to write is anybody’s guess. A nd how they survive the labyrinth o f con tem porary publishing is also w orth telling. A chronicle o f their literary nightmares is Colby’s lead essay in Into the Buzzsaw: Leading Journalists Expose the M yth o f a Free Press. This collection o f 18 such horror stories — which was picked as one o f the top 20 books o f 2002 by the New York Public Library a few m onths ago — will be honored on July 13 w ith a N ational Press Club Award in W ashington, D .C. Colby will attend the event, but D ennett may not. T here’s the im m inent deadline and that m oney problem, not to m ention Skippy’s behav ioral training. W hatever the obstacles, the couple is deter m ined to remain at the forefront o f the honorable m uckraking tradition in an era when news is fast becoming entertainm ent. “We’re n ot conspiracy theorists,” Colby insists when asked w hat fuels their passion. “It underm ines the w ork o f inves tigative journalists to spout theories not backed by fact.” (7)

review th is GORDON STONE BAND, LIVE AT GODFREY DANIELS (Jeezum Crow M usk, CD) Gordon Stone has long been one of the area's most intriguing musical figures. From bluegrassers Pine Island and new-wave rockers The Decentz, through recordings with Phish and his solo success, Stone has made a permanent mark on the local music scene. Yet, name-dropping aside, Stone's real claim to fame is his incredible instrumental prowess. Live at Godfrey Daniels pairs Stone with frequent collaborator Rudy Dauth and fellow Decentz and Pine Island vet Jimmy Ryan. While Stone keeps the pace on banjo and pedal steel, Ryan picks his mandolin and Dauth holds things down on bass. The collection of 14 tunes waver from high-octane bluegrass barn burners to melodic country ballads. The selection of songs is excellent, and each musician gets his time to shine. Dauth grooves through a beautiful solo on Stone's "Tiramisu." Ryan's vocals and mandolin work are solid throughout, as are Stone's turns on both banjo and steel guitar. The four Ryan originals and few cov ers give the mandolinist a chance to step out, instrumental^ and vocally. Through it all, Stone fascinates with his quick licks and soulful solos. Recommended.

The magnificent local Bluegrass Gospel Project has a brand-new CD out this week, just in time for their appearances at the Montpelier Independence Day fes tivities on July 3rd and at the 25th annual Middlebury Festival on the Green next week.

FESTIVAL ON THE GREEN 2 5 TH ANNIVERSARY

Cooley fills out the tunes with drum machines, layers of clean acoustic guitars and even —

gasp!

After the FM static interlude of "Radio #3," Cooley kicks up the tempo for "Failing Upwards." Three tracks of acoustic guitar blend into each other as mellow keys and sleepy beats propel the tune onward. The song breaks down mid-tune, revealing each separate layer and slowly piling them back on for the track's fuzz-loaded climax. "One More Sunday" may be the best summation of School Bus' sound on Blue Bu tto n. Synths waver through the speakers, creating a relaxing, meditative swirl of sound. After a minute and a half of calm, a sly bass lick and steady hip-hop beat anchor the washes, setting the tune into motion. Near the end, guitar and piano play a slow duet over the sounds of chirping birds and

ARTWORK "Untitled," by Glenn Ligon

IMAGE Marc Awodey

n last week’s U.S. Supreme C ourt decision upholding the University o f M ichigan’s law-school admission poli cy, Justice Sandra Day O ’C onnor wrote that “diversity is a compelling state interest in the context o f univer sity admissions.” Diversity is also a compelling state interest in the context o f university museum acquisitions — at least at U V M ’s Fleming M useum. A modest exhibition highlighting the results o f that compelling interest, entitled “Recent Acquisitions: 20thC entury Prints, Drawings, and Paintings,” is currently on display in the m useum s W olcott Gallery. It is touted as including works that are now a high priority for the m useum s collecting. T h at includes landscapes and works by Vermonters, wom en and people o f color. Photographer Ernest W ithers pho tographed scenes from the battle for civil rights in the 1950s and 1960s. His 1968 piece “I Am a M an” is a panoram ic shot o f about 100 black m en holding placards that display the old anti-slavery battle cry from which the photograph takes its name. T heir signs Fill the central horizontal axis o f W ithers’ image, creating a com posi tion as powerful as the historic m om ent it captured. Two untitled etchings by Glen Ligon repeat the words “I feel most colored when throw n against a sharp white background.” O ne o f the pieces is composed o f black letters on a white background, the other o f black on black. Ligons works display masterful technique. T hey may be historically significant because they use words that

often, in his phrase, define “race as a social category.” He is also a gay artist, and that aspect o f his life sometimes informs his w ork as well. Ligons works are not m ilitant; they simply educate in a graphically engaging manner. T he folksy, rural etchings of Vermonter Alice Standish Buell are a charm ing addition to the museum ’s collection. H er 1945 “N oon H our” is based on alternating lights and darks. Its viewpoint is from the interior dark ness o f a hay barn, looking outward toward the mid-day light falling on a farm house. In “Last Load,” a hay wagon rolls through a hilly pasture. Both pieces are fairly typical landscape etchings o f the 1940s. W olf Kahn’s landscapes are more interesting. Kahn was a studio assis tant for the late, great H ans H ofm ann, and his landscapes are fully informed by modernism . T he painting “Mr. H am ilton’s Heifers” arises from a steeply angled axis formed by the base o f a row o f trees. An array o f brilliant ly controlled values adds richness to Kahn’s autum nal hues. O ne could hope that “T he C om pensatory M o tif...” by M anuel

Ocam po is not a recent acquisition because o f the artist’s ethnicity. It’s a cartoonish lithograph w ith chine-colle elements that seems to be based on graffiti. O cam po gained notoriety in 1996 by insulting Catholics w ith his piece “Virgin Destroyer.” Religious critics claimed it presented the Virgin M ary as a bug draped in pearls and wielding a large knife and liquor b ot tle. “T he Com pensatory M o tif...” contains a similar bug but the theme seems to be more trivial. As stated in text w ithin the piece, it’s got some thing to do with “the development of abstract art.” If O cam po’s is the token Hispanic w ork now in the collection, his piece dem onstrates the pitfalls o f a curatori al bent based on art-scene hype and political correctness. O cam po’s piece is junk food. W hile it may represent one H ispanic voice, it is one o f the least eloquent that could have been found. Ultimately acquisitions m ust be based on quality, and in m ost cases they certainly are. But no m atter how good a male, albino C ubist from New Ham pshire m ight be, it’s not a good time to approach the Fleming. ©

FULL FIGURED

Hyun Ok Min's exhibition of figurative abstrac

tions, entitled "Flower of Romance," is definitely what TV host Ed Sullivan used to call a "really big show." Many of Min's canvasses on the walls at Wine Works in Burlington play with the interaction between positive and negative space. The large-scale "Goddess of Love" (pictured) is a typical example. Notice the repeated circular forms and two enormous, urn, eyes in the painting. Many of Min's works are endowed with similar attributes.

2 8 D a y s L a te r had forgotten film could possess such power to horrify and appall. I wasn’t prepared for the specter o f so many beings robbed o f their hum anity and intelligence. I can’t believe anyone other than pubescent boys voluntarily A LL T H E sat through Charlie’s Angels: Full R AG E Throttle. Murphy wakes Luckily, I d id n 't have to. I just to a London found myself with a few m inutes to wiped out by kill prior to the show time for D anny a virus that ( Trainspotting) Boyle’s new thriller and turns victims thought I’d see what everyone on the into violent T V talk shows had been gabbing monsters. about all week. The horror. I couldn’t have been gladder to get out o f there if a blood-lusting zombie had been one step behind me. W hat a relief to find myself instead in post-apocalyptic Loudon, deserte^l, ^ itte f^ i^ a fi3 heaped w ith hum an corpses. Cillian M urphy stars as a bicycle courier who’s survived a traffic accident and returns to the world o f the waking after 28 days in a coma. T he problem is, it’s not the world he remembers. T he place is a mess and he appears to be the only one in it. At least until he wanders into a church as night begins to fall. H e’s met with a staggering sight: pews jam m ed with hundreds o f dead people. M urphy musters a.more or less rhetorical “Hello?’’ and is unnerved to find him self rushed by a fast-moving, evidently blood-lusting, black-cloaked priest. The bikeless fellow soon finds him self high-tailing it down a trash-strewn street with a gaggle o f other bloodlusting speed freaks on his trail. H e’s saved by a couple o f bomb-rigging survivalist types, who take him to their shelter behind the security bars o f a mall shop and fill him in on the previous week’s developments. As recounted by a no-nonsense, machete-wielding Naomie Harris, ani mal activists had broken into some sort o f research facility where monkeys were being shown violent images and injected w ith a virus o f “pure rage.” Imagine the surprise on the faces o f those helpful young people when the primates they’d so thoughtfully freed instantly ripped them to shreds. The virus — transmitted by blood — spread through the city like wildfire, turning virtually everyone into fiends o f fury. W hen you machete an attacker, Harris explains, be careful not to let any blood get in your eyes or m outh or into an open wound. Otherwise, 10 to 20 seconds later, you’ll be tearing into your best friend, too. A^ the power is out and T V sta tions have ceased broadcasting, it’s unclear w hether the plague is a London problem or has spread to the * rest q £ th e world,, so there’s Jitrlc f o r : r r

Murphy, Harris and a few other stray survivors to do but try to stay $live and make their way to a rendezvous point specified in an automated mili tary broadcast. The question in the end is — assuming they get there — will they be better off than when they were on their own? Well, there’s good news and not-sogood news. Premise-wise we re a little shaky: Wouldn’t a research facility housing an agent this hazardous be too heavily guarded for PETA types to infiltrate? The script describes the con tagion as a “psychological virus,” so how does that get transmitted physio logically? And, if everyone who gets attacked turns into a blood-lusting mutant, how come there are so many Londoners just lying around dead and not lusting after anything? On the plus side, who cares? This is a zombie movie, right? Well, actually, it’s not. Zombies are dead. These guys are just mad as hell. Zombies lope slowly with their arms held straight out in front o f them. These guys streak like greased lightning, w hidL k~.

a whole lot scarier. 2 8 Days Later, in fact, manages to be impressively unsetding given the flaws in its foundation. Murphy makes a spellbinding trans formation from raw meat to macho monster-slayer. Harris makes a more intriguing and highly watchable war rior than any o f the women in Full Throttle. The script by novelist Alex Garland is propelled by nifty twists. And Boyle’s artfully envisioned night mare, filmed entirely on inexpensive digital video, looks like nothing you’ve seen before. Certainly there’s a tip o f the cine matic hat to George Romero in there, but make no mistake about it: This isn’t your parents’ zombie film. The director taps into horror far less campy and infinitely more real. Anyone who’s read Richard Preston’s The H ot Zone knows how close the U.S. came to an Ebola outbreak just a few years back as the result o f monkey business at a lab near Washington, D .C.

pening in time for the Fourth o f July, the thematically titled Legally Blonde 2: Red, White and Blonde stars Reese W itherspoon in a reprise o f her role as a seemingly air-headed sorority girl who goes to the head o f the class... at Harvard Law. After that improbable success story in the 2001 original, the seqflH sends this vividly garbed gal into the political fray o f the nation’s capital. In a recent publici ty blitz, the actress described her new movie as a girl-power version o f the 1939 Frank Capra classic, Mr. Smith Goes to

Washington. Turns out the Blonde 2 director, Charles Herman-W urmfield, is working on a campaign docum entary that could be called, optimistically, Mr. Dean Goes to Washington. His plane was grounded on June 23 en route to Burlington, where he planned to shoot footage o f the ex governor’s official announcem ent o f his candidacy for the Democratic nom ina tion. Instead, he recruited faculty and students from the Burlington College Film D epartm ent to handle the project in his absence. Herman-Wurmfield, who apparently hopes to visit the Queen City this week, is part of a Hollywood for Howard team. Jeff Kaufman, a former Middlebury radio and television journalist now living in Calif ornia, is reportedly involved with that effort. The good doctor has The buzz,” as one C N N com m entator recently suggest ed. Buzz may not be quite the same as charisma, but it’s surely a close second in this celebrity-obsessed society, ^ n d the fiery speechifying that has replaced Gov. Dean’s former bureaucratic monotone? Well, that’s entertainm ent. Vermont’s favorite son once adm itted in an inter view that he had written poetry as a youth and was most inspired by Allen Ginsberg. Nowadays, the man who would be president certainly has learned to howl for the cameras.

sentimental, uplifting and predictable film can worm its way into the cinematic treasure trove o f our collective consciousT ness. Whale Rider — opening this week at the Roxy in Burlington — may be flawed, b u t the New Zealand drama has the kind o f honestly heart-wrenching appeal that keeps the tear ducts moist. A nd it’s hard to resist any picture offering a glimpse o f an exotic world apart. Screenwriter-director Niki Caro adapt ed W iti Ihimaera’s novel about Pai, a prepubescent Maori girl who knows she’s a natural-born leader. If only her grandfather Koro could put aside his rigidly traditional notions o f male supremacy and allow the waif to flourish. As the tribes reigning chief, he seems to ignore all the omens that everyone else sees plain as day: The kid is destined to follow in his footsteps. Newcomer Keisha Castle-Hughes underplays 11-year-old Pai w ith just the right mixture o f bravado and vulnerabili ty. T he camera loves her radiant face, which outshines the pam pered beauty o f most teen Hollywood glamour-pusses. This adolescent has no tim e for fads or flirtations; she’s too busy trying to save her endangered culture. Pai s people, the W hangara, live in a

drab coastal village with a magnificent ocean view. T he com m unity is in decline. Ancient customs are barely observed any more — except by Koro (Rawiri Paretene), a patriarch who rarely smiles. Broken families abound, including his own. O lder women while away the hours gossiping and chain-smoking over card games. For the younger generation, jobs are scarce but alcohol is plentiful. In a prologue, the source o f Koro’s greatest torm ent is revealed: His son Porourangi (Cliff Curtis) flees the coun try because Pai’s birth claims the lives of her m other and twin brother. Porourangi’s departure leaves Koro with no first-born male heir-apparent, as required by tribal custom. But before he splits for Europe, Pai’s dad names her after Paikea, the creationmyth ancestor carried to shore on the back o f a whale when his canoe capsized. According to legend, that’s how the W hangara arrived on New Zealand’s N orth Island a thousand years ago. T he child is more adept at a stick fighting martial art called taiaha than any o f the disinterested local boys Koro tries, to train in this ritual. H e and Pai adore each other, but her struggle to be taken seriously offends him. O nly N anny Flowers (Vicky H aughton) appreciates the special talents and courage o f her bright little granddaughter. W ith m uch magic realism, the film presents Pai as a reincarnated savior in the body o f a feisty nascent feminist. This premise occasionally overwhelms the tender coming-of-age drama w ith too m uch weighty symbolism and politically correct baggage. In rising above the script’s sappier tendencies, however, the fine cast manages to create a whale o f a tale. (7)

GO FOURTH Whatever your take on the current state of the union, you can still get a bang from the Fourth of July. Eager flag-wavers get their fireworks fix a day early on Burlington's waterfront. Montpelier also gets a jump on the holiday with a parade, a water carnival, performances by Tammy Fletcher and the Starline Rhythm Boys and an explosive end ing. Stock-car racing and skyrockets rev up Barre's premature celebration. Patriotism wears several different stripes for folks commemorating the actual fourth. Red-blooded Amer icans simply looking for a good time can find parades, live music, games and barbecues in Cambridge, Morrisville, Randolph, Warren and Westford. Jeffersonville, Stowe,

Woodstock and Plattsburgh, N.Y., stage festivals with firework finales. Cabot and Rochester do all that with a side of historical enactment. Purist history nerds bone up on the Declaration of Independence at Billings Farm in Woodstock and at Fort Ticonderoga, N.Y., or take a ghost tour in Peacham. The party animals in Brandon apparently don't know when to stop. Their celebration — on the 5th — features a parade, live bluegrass, a silent auction and a big-bang finish. And if organized holiday hoopla leaves you overwhelmed, there's always backyard grilling and writing your name in the air with sparklers — legal in Vermont since June. Is this country great, or what?

BY ROB BREZSNY

You can call Rob Brezsny, day or night, for your expanded weekly horoscope 1-900-950-7700. $1.99 per minute. 18 and over. Touchtone phone.

JULY 0 3 - 0 9

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): The States often leads the way in dreaming up novel gourmet treats, but China is now marketing an amazing product that American food designers haven't even begun to develop: milk beer. Appealing to both the infantile longing for creamy liquid nourishment and the adult craving for inhibition-loosening alcohol, it's bound to become the 21st century's first new staple. From an astrological perspective, Aries, the time is ripe for you to gorge yourself with a blend like milk beer. If it's not yet being sold in your area, I suggest you mix up your own batch. United

TAURUS (Apr. 20-May 20): "Dear Mr. Brezsny: Your horoscopes are useless. Most of them are full of philosophical crap that has nothing to do with my daily life. Enough with the metaphors already! Just tell me if there's love O r money or trou ble in my future — stuff that normal horoscopes say! — Testy Taurus." Dear Testy: I predict that in the coming week, you and your fellow Bulls will have close encounters with the kind of experience you just directed at me. In other words, peo ple will try to get you to be some thing other than what you are. Do not, under any circumstances, cave into them.

GEMINI

play and magic. A crazy attempt to align body and mind not only in the pursuit of freedom, but in the actual experience of freedom. Intentional spontaneity. The beauty and truth of the wild."

CANCER(June 21-July 22): To quote an old song, Cancerian, your future lies beyond the yellow brick road. In other words, it's time to let go of the fairy-tale vision of success that fueled you when you were young and naive. A more mature dream is calling, inviting you to get older and wiser fast. Initially, this replacement may feel like a loss, but ultimately it will awaken pas sions and ingenuity that the original goal would never have coaxed out. Ironically, it will also lead you to rewards that the yellow brick road promised but never could have deliv ered.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): Dragon alert! You have a date with an influ ence that has a metaphorical resem blance to a scaly, winged, fire-breath ing beast. As daunting as that may sound, you shouldn't avoid it; I believe it will actually help your soul grow bigger and stronger. O n the other hand, there's no need to immediately race over to the drag on’s cave and poke it with a stick. Try to arrange a meeting that takes place on your home turf and in the presence of your allies.

(May 21-June 20): Gemini performer Keith Hennessy teaches classes in improvisation. I'll quote his ideas about the subject (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A because they perfectly describe the fundamentalist is anyone whl) thinks nature of the spirit you should his belief system trumps all others. invoke in the coming weeks. Here's Religious fanatics are the most obvi his definition of improvisation. "The ous example, but scientists can be art of being in full awareness and fundamentalists. So can socialists or integrity right now. The opposite of _ capitalists, environmentalists or athe repression. The closest we get to the ists. Every fundamentalist divides the source language of creativity, soul, world into two camps, those who

VIRGO

agree with him and those who don't. To him, there is one right way and a million wrong ways to interpret real ity. Now here's the uncomfortable news: Every one of us has the funda mentalist virus. It may not be as vir ulent in you and me as it is in the bad guys we love to hate. But we're all infected. Luckily, Virgo, you're in an astrological phase when you can achieve a partial cure. To begin, take everything less seriously and less per sonally and less literally.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): My acquaintance John traveled to Antarctica. O n the first day, the guide took him and his group to a remote area and left them alone for an hour to commune with the pris tine air and unearthly stillness. After a while, a penguin ambled up and launched into a ceremonial display of squawks and stretches. John responded with recitals of his fav orite memorized poems, imagining he was "engaged in a conversation with eternity." Then the penguin sent a stream of green projectile vomit cascading against his chest, and shuffled away. Though John ini tially felt deflated by eternity's sur prise, no harm was done. Later he came to see it as a first-class cosmic joke, and treasured its value as an amusing story with which to regale his friends back home. I predict you will have an analogous experience in the coming week, Libra.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 2V): Yoii're like an arrow in flight,

Scorpio. You're a half-cooked feast, the fifth month of pregnancy, the week before a big election. W hen I turned my psychic vision towards you just now, I saw an image of a worker bee freshly returned to the hive to perform the dance that will

tell its companions where to find a patch of blooming snapdragons. Have you ever mastered a second language? Where you are at this moment resembles the time right before you attain fluency.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): W hen I relocated from Santa Cruz to Marin County in 1991, I moved from a hotbed of alternative lifestyles to a very wealthy community. In making the transition, I knew I'd have to deal with a character flaw: my prejudice against rich white people. Over the years, I've made great progress in dissolving my bigotry, but today I was sorely tested. While walking downtown, I spied a Lexus SC-430 with a vanity license plate that read "PUREHRT." Indignation surged through me as I thought, "It's inconceivable that the owner o f a $60,000 sports car could have a pure heart!" But soon my compas sionate mind kicked in, and I opened to the possibility, quieting my judgmental reflex. Let this tale serve as your inspiration this week, Sagittarius. It's time to have a show down with your deepest prejudice.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): At last year's Burning Man, the week-long festival of cheerful mischief in the Nevada desert, a character calling himself Mother Very Superior was omnipresent. Clad in a nun's habit and black leather chastity belt, he roamed far and wide, dispensing blessings with a toy cat-o'-nine-tails. "I hereby absolve you of your sins," he chanted as he softly whipped anyone who consent ed to his gift, "so now you are free to go ahead and sin like crazy." I sug gest you find someone to do you a similar favor, Capricorn. To take

AQUARIUS Gan. 20 Feb. 18): Being right doesn't guarantee success in the coming week. Nor does being strong or smart or rich or well-connected. No, Aquarius, none of the usual assets will be of much use if you want to triumph over adversity. There is another way, though. It would require you to be tricky yet ethical. You'd have to be good in a sneaky way, or pull off some subterfuge while aflame with a noble purpose. Here's another tip for ensuring victory: Renounce any attachment you have to getting full credit for your heroic efforts.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Everyone needs music, but you, Pisces, can't survive without it. Your moist, hungry, undulating soul tends to devolve into confusion without regular exposure to music's wild intelligence. It's also important for you to keep finding fresh songs to commune with. Depending solely on those that moved you once upon a time encourages you to commit a sin your tribe has to be wary of: living in the past. As for what music would nourish you best right now, I'll trust your intuition to guide you. But here's some soul food for thought from the song "Green Light: Now Begin," by hip-hop group Blackalicious: "No more of that sittin' in a slump/ No more of that couldawoulda-shoulda junk/ No more of that waiting for the inspiration, innovation/ It's time to expand, power from within, you're takin' over this dominion/ Green light, now begin." ®

the love counselor Dear Lola, I was wondering if there are any foods or drinks a woman can consume that make her smell/taste better for the man going down on her. Conversely, are there things she should stay away from? Mystified in Montpelier Dear Mystified, Anyone, man or woman, who makes a habit of eating out in "Australia" understands what a multi-flavored experi ence it can be. Just as Sidney's specialties are easily dis tinguished from those of the Outback, the smatch of any given snatch varies over time — from week to week with in a given month and from appetizer to dessert over the course of a single tuck-in. Geography also matters: Grazing around the edges yields a more subtle savor than does diving in deep. In addition, bathing definitely makes a difference, as do douches, contraceptives and other addi tives. As for food, onions and garlic stay in the system longer than you might imagine, while pineapple adds sweets to the sweet. Love, Lola
