SPEED FREAKS I have read the letters to the editor regarding injustices and perceived injustices in traffic court. It is sm art to rem em ber that traffic duty is considered by police offi­ cers to be extremely hazardous. T his goes for directing as well as patrolling traffic. Police officers assigned to this are unlikely to be conversational, so keep your inter­ actions w ith them to a m inim um if you are stopped. To be sure, defendants in traffic court are often treated like sheep, herded one by one before the judge for a perfunctory hearing. However, if you know w hat the police officer is required to present to prove his/her case, and how to present your case, you will fare m uch bet­ ter. T here are rules o f court that benefit the defendant in traffic cases. If you don’t know the rules, you will probably lose. Knowing how to stand up for your rights -in court is your responsibility.

TRACKING VIEWS..... In your June 16 issue, you p u b ­ lished a letter by T ibor Bernath o f Burlington, in w hich he took your paper and Peter Freyne to task for n ot m aking a “com plete disclo­ sure” o f Freyne’s “political affini­ ties and allegiances.” Mr. Bernath, it w ould seem,

feels as if he has just unearthed yet another horrible example o f the vicious “liberal media” at work, subverting the hearts and minds o f an unsuspecting populace. Personally, I think that some­ one should gently break the news to Tibor Bernath that those who write opinion columns are general­ ly expected to have opinions. Perhaps Tibor Bernath should also be forewarned that intelligent readers are usually able to read an uncom plicated writer like Peter Freyne and figure out w hat those opinions are w ithout having some­ one provide a “com plete disclo­ sure” written w ith a large crayon.

HOUSE RULES Mr. Bjerke mischaracterized the Burlington C om m unity Land Trust’s position and financial interest in the H artland G roup’s proposed project in his letter June 16. First and foremost, no m atter how this developm ent comes out, there will be no “funds to BCLT coffers.” W hat we will do is pro­ vide the stewardship for the hoipes that will be made afford­ able by Inclusionary Zoning. M y reason for supporting the developm ent w ith the requested variance is that it makes it a m uch better place to live by allowing the parking to go under the building. Stacking the parking under the building is simply the best prac-

FAHRENHEIT FAN Last night, Friday, June 25, 2004, w ith a group o f friends I attended the Burlington premiere o f Michael M oore’s new film,-, , Fahrenheit 9/11. Thejtheater was packed. People had been lining up outside for hours before the show. Tickets were sold o ut days in advance. Interestingly, the show was attended by a num ber o f groups. T his film is about things that

tice for tight urban sites. T his uses the property better and allows the creation o f nicer condos w ith m ore square footage and natural light. Anyone who looks at the model o f the site can see that this proposal creates a better place to live and a better asset to the neighborhood. As I reported to the O rdinance C om m ittee, BCLT has had to remove condos from its portfolio because they were n ot a quality product that we wished to market. O n e could argue that in this m ar­ ket quantity trum ps quality, b ut that is simply n o t true. Such an approach shortchanges the resi­ dents o f the hom e and the sur­ rounding com m unity, and ulti­ mately underm ines support for affordable housing.

"L eu n ig s is coolest p la c e to be o n a h o t s u m m e r n ig h t a n d th e h o tte st p la c e to be o n a co ld w in te r's —Francine Raymer, State Agency Manager, Stewart Title Guaranty Co.

J o h n s fo r A m e r ic a ! emocrat John Kerry made it official Tuesday; Sen. John Edwards of N orth Carolina — the cutest, sexiest, smartest Democrat since Bill Clinton — will be Long John Serious designated running mate. Two Johns will be standing side by side, hoping to steer America back on course. The Plumbers’ Union must be thrilled, eh? * - Edwards’ selection also comes as the offi­ cial death knell for the national political aspirations of Vermont’s newest national star,

D

Howard Dean. Let’s face it. The chances of Kerry picking another New Englander for the ticket were between slim and none. Nonetheless, Dean Diehards had been mounting a petition drive to get H o-H o’s vice-presidential candidacy before the delegates at the upcoming Boston Tea Party. Let’s hope they handle reality well. More about Dr. Dean later. Y’all know, Johnny Vice President actual­ ly has a pretty significant Vermont connec­ tion. Its evidenced by the fact that he was U.S. Sen. Patrick Leahy’s top pick. Leahy, you see, took a fatherly shine to ' Young John back in 1998. Since St. Patrick _ had no serious Republican opposition that year (just like this year), he directed campaign con­ tributors to the North Carolina senate race. There, Republican Sen. Jesse Helm’s clone, Sen. Lauch Faircloth, was being challenged by an articulate young lawyer from humble beginnings who’d won a courthouse reputation for standing up for the little guy. Edwards defeated Faircloth. And he had been a U.S. senator for just a few weeks when Sen. Leahy not only recruited him for the Judiciary Com mittee but tapped him to serve on the three-member Democratic panel that would handle depositions in the impeachment o f President Bill Clinton. Leahy and Edwards sat side by side in the presidential suite of the Mayflower Hotel when Monica Lewinsky was deposed by Republican lawyers. Ah, the good old days when, presidential sins were strictly sexual! A Leahy told Seven Days he chose Edwards over more senior Democrats because of his courtroom experience. St. Patrick may be a lawyer, but he hadn’t taken a deposition since his state’s attorney days 30 years previ­ ous. He needed legal talent, and Edwards topped the list. We’ll never forget the first time we met John Edwards in Vermont. It was the Democrat Party fall dinner back in 2001. We were already closely following Howard Dean’s “secret” presidential quest. Many thought we had a screw loose. At the time Edwards, unlike Dean, was already on everyone’s presidential futures list. St. Patrick joked that night that he didn’t know which ticket sounded better “DeanEdwards or “Edwards-Dean.” At least the ever-prescient Leahy got- it half right, eh? H o-H o dropped by the dinner at the Capitol Plaza just as folks were finishing the main, course. He never mixed it up with the out-of-state visitor. Couldn’t help but get the feeling Dean was there that night to send John Edwards a message. H o-H o was introduced first and gave a preview o f the new and improved Howard

Dean that folks in Iowa would be seeing a year later. Let’s just say Dean wowed ’em! It was a shot fired across Edwards’ bow. W hen Edwards’ turn came, the N orth Carolinian read from a prepared text. Boring would be too kind a word to describe Johnny Handsome’s speech that night. In the hallway afterwards, yours truly and Tracy Schmaler of the Vermont Press Bureau cornered Sen. Edwards as Godfather Leahy stood guard close by. At the time, November 2001, Vermont was all alone when it came to marriage rights for same-sex couples. The Massachu­ setts Supreme C ourt ruling was years away. Edwards was asked his position on gay marriage. We quickly learned that it was not a topic he was used to dealing with back home. “Y’all got to understand,” said Sen. Handsome with a gasp that quickly turned into a smile, “I come from N orth Carolina.” “And he supports Vermont civil unions!” declared St. Patrick as he swiftly put his arm around Edwards’ shoulder and steered his pro­ tege down the hall and out of harm’s way. P.S. Tracy Schmaler is today the press sec­ retary for the Senate Judiciary Com mittee on which Leahy and Edwards serve. Small world, eh? And, Seven Days has learned, on that November night history could have taken a turn for the worse. According to informed sources, Edwards’ flight out of Barre in a one-engine plane almost turned into a disaster. In flight, the pilot realized one of the rear doors was ajar. We’re told he asked Edwards to crawl back and try to close it. The aircraft made an emergency landing at a small strip in upstate New York. The same sources also say Edwards’ staff was soon calling Leahy’s staff asking “what the hell was up” with this pumped-up Howard Dean guy who stole the show on that cold and rainy November night.

This Just In! — According to a reliable source, Republican State Sen. John Bloomer Jr. o f Rutland has told friends he will not seek reelection. The Senate G O P leader is a class act. G O P State Chair Jim Barnett told Seven Days he was not aware o f Bloomer’s decision. N ot hard to picture Attorney Bloomer wearing judicial robes in the not too distant future, eh, Guv? As Seven Days was going to press, Bloomer called to confirm his departure from the Vermont Senate.

Speaking of Ho-Ho — Dr. Dean’s Democracy for America office in South Burlington p ut out a statement Tuesday m orning following the announcem ent of John Kerry’s choice for veep; “John Edwards is a smart choice for John Kerry. A Kerry-Edwards ticket will bring energy, com m itm ent and a new vision for _

Curses, Foiled Again Police in Toledo, Ohio, said that Cranston Baccus, 30, and Joseph Allen Wilson, 18, planned to rob a grocery store by having Baccus pose as a cus­ tomer while Wilson threatened to shoot him unless the cashier emptied the register. Just before the cashier handed over the money, however, Wilson’s gun accidentally fired, killing Baccus. Wilson fled but was appre­ hended shordy after. • John Parker and Rick Owens of Kerens, Ohio, were arrested and charged with pos­ sessing counterfeit money after an off-duty police officer spotted them in a Wal-Mart parking lot leisurely cutting the bills before going into the store to spend them.

The American Way Canadian university student Brandon Buchan, 21, ordered an MP3 player over the Internet, but the pawn­ shop that auctioned the device on eBay sent him an unloaded .22-caliber Smith & Wesson handgun and a firearms license instead. “I was shocked to see it was a gun,” Buchan said after he notified the authorities. “I’m not a hit man. I was mostly confused about it all.”

Seventh Sense German researchers announced they have built a prototype of eyeglasses that may help humans with mem­ ory lapses. The device consists of a helmet mounted with two cameras that record images of objects to build up a “memory” of what the wearer sees. It then learns to recog­ nise objects and could help people find lost keys or trace driving routes, according to Christian Bauckhage, the project’s technical coordinator, who explained, “We are trying to recreate human abilities, such as seeing or hearing, so that we can build them into a complete intelligence system.”

ROLAND SWEET_______ Beats the Middle Seat Singapore Airlines said that its new Airbus A340-500 aircraft would include a “corpse cupboard” in case of an in-flight death. “On the rare occa­ sion when a passenger passes away during a flight, the crew will do all that is possible to manage the situation with sensitivity and respect,” an airline official said. “Unfortun­ ately, given the space constraints in an air­ craft cabin, it is not always possible to find a row of seats where the deceased passenger can be placed and covered in a dignified manner, although this is always the preferred option. The compartment will be used only if no suitable space can be found elsewhere in the cabin.”

by the Information Security Oversight Office, which oversees the national security secrecy system. The independent watchdog National Security Archive, which obtained a copy of the report, said that number is up from 11 million national security secrets clas­ sified in 2002 and 8 million in 2001. “It’s reflexive, knee-jerk secrecy,” said the National Security Archive’s director, Thomas Blanton. “Nobody’s back there behind the curtain asking, ‘Does this secret make us safer, or is it just to keep somebody from being embarrassed?”’ • Minnesota’s Commerce Department announced it is cracking down on cheap gas, beginning with a $70,000 fine against Arkansas-based Murphy Oil for breaking the law at its 10 Minnesota stations. It also fined KwikTrip Inc. $5000 for violations at one station. The law, which the state enacted in 2001, requires service stations to charge at least 8 cents per gallon, plus taxes, more than they paid for it.

Sweet Treat Chocolate bars that could help men and women achieve orgasm are on the way, according to sex expert Dr. Trudy Barber. She told the European Federation of Sexology Conference in Brighton, England, that the chocolates, which could be available within five years, will contain higher than normal levels of the chemical phenyl ethylamine, which the body releases during sex.

Next Time Call a Cab Fidel Cueva, 41, boarded a Los Angeles-bound Greyhound bus, but when he found out it was an express that didn’t stop in Ventura, authorities said he went to the back, removed an emergency window and jumped out, even though the bus was traveling 55 mph. Cueva hit the freeway, rolled and came to rest in the fast lane, where several cars had to swerve to miss him. He suffered only a few cuts and bruises.

Do It for Your Country Australia’s treas­ urer declared that couples owe it to their country to have more children and urged them to get on with the job. “You go home and do your patriotic duty tonight,” Peter Costello said when a journalist asked if he was “the family-friendly treasurer saying get out there and procreate.” Costello promised $2083 for every baby born as part of a $13.3 billion “family package” to be distributed over five years. “If you can have children, it’s a good thing to do,” Costello said. “You should have one for your husband, one for your wife and one for your country,” Costello said, adding that some Australians would have to go one step further by having extra children to make up the gap left by friends who “aren’t even replicating themselves.”

Show Me Yours, I'll Show You Mine A June 23 baseball game between Texas and Seattle is believed to be the first time in majorleague history that two shooting victims faced each other. Seatde’s third baseman Jolbert Cabrera, who was shot in the buttocks in an attempted carjacking on Dec. 21, 2001, in Cartagena, Colombia, batted against Texas pitcher Nick Bierbrodt, who was shot twice at a drive-in restaurant on June 7, 2002. Cabrera got two hits off Bierbrodt, but Bierbrodt was the winning pitcher.

Irony Illustrated Linda Atkin of Sheffield, England, collected 10,000 signatures on a petiuon to save the neighborhood post office. She sent the petition to postal officials by registered mail but was told that it never arrived. After an investigatidn failed to turn up the document, the Royal Mail sent Atkin a book of 12 postage stamps as compensation. • Ooi Yee Seng, 36, was on her way to a rally in Malaysia’s Johor Jaya state to protest an outbreak of purse-snatchings when a man on a motorcycle snatched her purse.

ore than a decade before schlock jock Howard Stern unleashed his campaign against the Federal Communications Commission for trampling on his constitutional right to talk about his penis on national airwaves, Noam Chomsky’s Manufacturing Consent was warning Americans about the pernicious effects of ownership consolidation in the U.S. media industry. But last week, Stern, Chomsky and other free-speech advocates had reason to cele­ brate. In a lengthy court decision that ran more than 200 pages, the Third District Court slammed the FCC for trying to deregu­ late the American system of media ownership. In a blunt rebuke, the court determ ined that the FC C had relied on “irrational assumptions and inconsistencies” when it tried to relax the rules o f cross-ownership that govern newspapers, radio stations and television outlets w ithin a single market. In effect, the court told the FC C to go back and re-read its mission about regulating the airwaves in the public interest.

In effect, the court told the FCC to go back and re-read its mission about regulating the airwaves in the public interest. Among those who hailed the court deci­ sion was the Prometheus Radio Project o f Philadelphia, which brought the original suit to stay the F C C ’s controversial decision in June 2003 that would have made it much easier for large corporations to gobble up a bigger slice o f the media pie. The Prometheus Radio Project has been a major advocate o f increasing the diversity o f voices and views on the airwaves through lowpower FM (LPFM) — small, com m unityowned and operated radio stations that reach just a few miles from the transmitter. At least two unlicensed com m unity stations in Vermont — Free Radio Burlington and Radio Free Brattleboro — have petitioned the FC C for LPFM licenses, thus far w ith­ out success. A nother major backer o f LPFM is V ermont’s Senator Patrick Leahy, who recently introduced a bill (S.2503) w ith Arizona Sen. John M cCain to speed the F C C ’s process o f issuing LPFM licenses. Ever since low-power was created in January 2000 to “enhance locally focused, com m u­ nity-oriented radio broadcasting,” the FC C has received more than 3400 applications for licenses. However, before the Com m is­ sion could fully im plem ent LPFM , large broadcasters, represented by the N ational Association o f Broadcasters, expressed unw arranted fears about radio interference and spooked Congress into halting the pro­ gram. As a result, Congress ordered the FC C to hire an independent engineering Firm to study the problem. Well, guess what? Two years and more than $2 million later, the independent study confirmed w hat LPFM advocates have been

saying all along: that low-power stations don’t interfere w ith other broadcast stations. Leahy and M cCain’s bill, also known as the “Low Power Radio Act o f 2004,” is now in the C om m ittee on Commerce, Science and Transportation.

Spreading a different kind of grassroots message, representatives from the Alliance@ IBM, a union o f some 6000 IBM employ­ ees in the U nited States, did their part to show their solidarity w ith fellow IBM employees in India. O n the mornings of June 21 and 22, workers arriving at IBM facilities in Bangalore, India, were greeted w ith leaflets introducing them to the union and inviting them to learn more about w hat’s happening to IBM employees in Vermont and elsewhere in the U nited States. In particular, the leaflets tried to dis­ pel the notion that IBM employees in the U.S. are hostile to their Indian counterparts as a result o f Big Blue’s decision to o u t­ source jobs to India. “The press and the big [information-tech­ nology] companies will tell you that American workers hate Indians. They say that Americans are angry with Indians for ‘taking our jobs.’ This is not true,” the flyers read. “We know that, as IBM employees, there is much more that brings us together than drives us apart.” The flyers go on to explain some o f the rea­ sons why Alliance@IBM formed in the 1990s, including changes made in employees’ pen­ sion plans. “O n the heels o f the IBM stockholder meedng, we also wanted to show IBM that we will challenge them anywhere, be it Provi­ dence, Rhode Island, or Bangalore, India,” explains Ailiance@IBM National Coordinator Lee Conrad. No word yet on what kind of response the union has received.

Ever wonder what th e war in Iraq is costing Vermonters, besides lost afid disrupt­ ed lives? Well, the National Priorities Project — at www.nationalpriorities.org — has set up a database that offers equivalent federalbudget expenditures. For example, according to the N PP database, Vermont taxpayers have contributed at least $233.1 million to the initial cost o f the war. For that money, the Green M ountain State could have financed 34,975 federal housing vouchers, 4541 elementary school teachers, 27,336 H ead Start slots for low-income children or 1036 new fire trucks. Or, we could have provided health-care coverage to 49,020 Vermont adults or 107,433 children. Those figures don’t include the $25 bil­ lion allocated for additional war spending, to which Vermonters will contribute $38.2 million. Its buying power? 5730 federalhousing vouchers, 744 elementary school teachers, 4479 slots for H ead Start or 170 more fire trucks. O f course, funding emergency services, housing the poor, feeding the hungry and educating children have nothing to do w ith hom eland security, right? ®

o, cabbie. Cabbie. W hich town d ’ya like better — W inooski or Colchester?” It was 3 in the m orning, and m y cab was occupied by four guys heading to the Five C orners in Essex Junction. It was Saturday nig h t — well, Sunday m o rn ­ ing, actually — and it seemed like this w hole gang was intoxicated and speaking at the sam e tim e. T h e question cam e from the m iddle guy sitting in the rear seat. I pretended n o t to hear him . “C abbie, I ’m talking to you, m an. W h ich tow n d ’ya like better — W inooski or Colchester?” T h e entire foursom e was d ru n k and loud, b u t only this m iddle m an was being obnoxious. I snuck a look in the rearview m irror to see a bleary-eyed, clean-shaven m an in his m id-tw enties. H is chin kept dro p p in g to his chest, o n to a T -shirt w hich read, “A n Insufficient M em ory o f T his T im e.” T h a t’s actually

A cabdriver is a true sitting duck, an easy target for the vicious, malevolent or just plain nasty. hum orous, I th o u g h t to myself, though subtle in a way th a t d id n ’t suit the lunkhead w earing it. I’m usually less irritable — I really am — b u t it was m y third late, late nig h t in row, and I was seriously bushed. All I could th in k was: W hat a stupid fu c kin g question. M y problem w ith the guy in the back was n o t really the question itself, no r his d ru n k en state. W h en it com es dow n to it, I ’ll talk to anyone about just about anything. I’ll even rank tow ns if th a t’s on the table. W h y not? B ut one thin g I can’t stom ach is n o n ­ conversation m asquerading as conversa­ tion. T his guy was n o t even vaguely attem p tin g anything related to genuine dialogue. N o, he was taking advantage o f a cabdriver’s position as captive audience, using m e as a prop in the crapulous dogan d -po ny show he was p u ttin g on for his friends. “C abbie, yo, I’m — ” “I hear you, m a n ,” I interjected. “So, m y answer is W inooski.” “W inooski! Are you high? H ow the hell can you take W inooski over Colchester? G et real.” . T h e rest o f the crew was taking peripheral notice o f this interrogation, and there was som e chuckling. W h e n you’re ham m ered, this is fun n y stuff. M y questioner in the back had m ade such a cogent argum ent th a t I couldn’t help b u t reassess an d sw itch m y answer. I said, “O K , Colchester, th e n .” A t th at

m o m en t, we drove past th e psychiatric offices at the old Fanny A llen H ospital, and I considered checking m yself in. U nfortunately, I rem em bered, they d o n ’t have 2 4 -h o u r curbside service. “O h , sheesh. C ’m on now. You’re just saying anything, cabbie.” ; V -7. - • “Look, w hat can I tell you?” I replied. “T h is conversation is ju st so friggin’ scin­ tillating.” T h a t was a m istake. I m ean, the “scin­ tillating” part. It was ju st too dazzling a w ord, and th a t got his friends in to it. “Wow, ‘scintillating’,” th e guy next to m e erupted, pivoting in his seatT o face the rear. “Joe, this cabbie’s g o t-^ b d ' pegged. You are one scin tillatih g lttd iv iff' ual. T h a t’s for d am n sure.” “O h , yeah — th a t’s you tb a " T ^ t h e guy sitting to Joe’s right pitched in. I noticed for the first tim e th at this m em ­ ber o f the squad was chew ing tobacco* and before speaking, had to release a - " thick jetstream o f cocoa-colored, saliva.-----into the over-sized plastic cup he gripped in his left hand. As a habit, I thought, tobacco chew ing makes cigarette sm oking look like tea and crum pets in a fine English garden. I m ean, is anything m ore foul? “A nd the funny th in g is,” C hew y con­ tinued, pausing for an o th er lovely expec­ toration, “I have no fuckin’ idea w hat ‘scintillating’ means!” T h a t broke up the entire group, m yself included. T h e release o f laughter felt good, b u t m ore significantly, it cut short Joe’s relentless to rm e n t o f me. T h an k goodness the oth er guys, th o u g h drunk, were basically a good-natured bunch. T his en co u n ter easily could have gone the o th er way, w ith the rest o f th em pil­ ing on an d m aking m e their verbal p u n ch in g bag for the rest o f the trip. T h a t’s been know n to occur, an d it’s n o t pretty. A cabdriver is a tru e sittin g duck, an easy target for th e vicious, m alevolent or ju st plain nasty. If th e going gets tough, it’s n o t as if a cabbie can sim ply ab an d o n the vehicle; he’s stuck. W e m ade a few tu rn s o ff R oute 117 an d en d ed up in fro n t o f a house w ith ab o u t six cars in th e driveway, n o n e o f w hich looked like it had been m anufac­ tu red in th e 21st century. A lo t o f po st­ college guys m uster th eir forces to rent houses like this, u n til — one by one — they get b etter jobs, get m arried or just leave tow n. As they pooled th eir dou g h to pay the fare, Joe said, “Hey, I was ju st screwing w ith ya, m an. You know th a t.” O h , sure, I th o u g h t, ju st like the prison guards at A bu G hraib. W h e n I’m overw orked an d feel p u t u p o n , th e old persecution com plex really com es o ut. “Sure, m an, n o p ro b lem ,” I said.

Dear Cecil, What is the story with human growth hormone (HGH)? I know that the actual hormone can be injected (at great expense), and some o f the Hollywood crowd supposedly use this to stay young However, a lot o f companies are market­ ing “H G H enhancers, ” which are not H G H but supple­ ments that are supposed to stimulate the body to produce H G H in greater quantities. The enhancers are much less expensive than actual H G H and supposedly almost as effec­ tive in raising your H G H level. So, does H G H really restore your youth? Do these H G H enhancers work? Or is it all placebo effect? — Richard Nash via e-mail

ZOO*

Chances are you’re going to be hearing a lot about H G H in the next few years. Consider the following facts: (1) The most promising test done on H G H so far involved men age 60 and up. (2) The leading edge of the babyboom generation is now 58. If you’re, say, Bill Clinton, born in 1946, you’re looking in the mirror and thinking: You know, for an old fart, I don’t look bad. How long can I hold off the inevitable? (3) Most of the crap you see touting H G H and so-called H G H enhancers is, in fact, crap. (4) However, some of it’s not. Here’s the story so far. H G H is a chemical produced by the body that’s essential to normal growth in children, and scientists have now come to realize it’s important in adults, too. In many but not all elderly people, H G H levels drop well below those of adults in their prime, and some researchers think this leads to losFof lean body mass, increased body fat and other hallmarks of aging. Before the mid-’80s the sole source of H G H was the pituitary glands of cadavers, but gene-splicing technolo­ gy has made it possible to produce synthetic H G H in quantity, though still at a stiff (sorry) price. To date the stuff has mostly been given to people with gland prob­ lems, e.g., kids who would otherwise be abnormally small. In 1990, however, the New England Journal o f Medicine published a study by D. Rudman et al suggest­

ing that giving synthetic H G H to healthy males over 60 with reduced levels of natural H G H significantly slowed aging. The Rudman group injected 12 men r;ges 61 to 81 with H G H three times a week. After six months they found that the men averaged 9 percent more lean body mass, 14 percent less body fat, 7 percent greater skin thickness, and a 2 percent increase in lumbar vertebra density. Meanwhile a control group showed no change. In an accompanying editorial, the NEJM said in essence: This is pretty cool (the sober world of medical research being what it is, the actual phrase was “an impor­ tant beginning”). But we don’t know enough about possi­ ble long-term effects of supplemental H G H, and much of what we do know isn’t good — serious drawbacks include increased risk of diabetes, arthritis and congestive heart failure. So don’t go running out to Rexall just yet. Internet hucksters paid no attention. Some spammed the world about dietary supplements that supposedly increase the body’s production of H G H ; meanwhile, sev­ eral websites hawked oral or inhaled versions of H G H. Many cited the Rudman study as support for their claims. The NEJM got fed up and published more arti­ cles saying: We’ve never endorsed the use of H G H to combat aging, we’ve seen no proof that so-called enhancers have therapeutic value, oral and inhaled H GH probably won’t work for technical reasons, and dietary supplements aren’t regulated by the FDA. (All of the articles, including the Rudman study, are available on the NEJM web site at no charge.) Hype notwithstanding, the role of H G H in aging remains a subject of intense scientific interest. A quick search of PubMed, an online medical journal index pro­ vided by the National Library of Medicine, shows rough­ ly 150 reports on H G H and aging since the beginning of 2000. Data points pro and con: • Multiple follow-up studies have confirmed the Rudman findings, although the ones I’ve seen were short­ term and involved relatively few subjects. On the other hand, the impact of H G H on mental function — which many think is the key to long life — remains unclear. • In one study, 18 men aged 65 to 82 underwent pro­ gressive strength training followed by more training plus H G H or placebo. The initial training significantly increased muscle strength, but H G H produced no addi­ tional benefit. • Elevated levels of H G H derivative in the blood may increase the risk o f canter; reduced levels are associated with heart attack and atherosclerosis. You’re thinking: I’m getting mixed signals here. Exactly — we still don’t know enough about H G H to proclaim it an elixir of youth. Luckily, other prorriising methods for cheating the reaper are available now and don’t require expensive chemicals — exercise* for instance, or sharply-reducing calorie intake. But the aver­ age American is.likely to say, I think I’ll waif for H G H .

America. I will be working hard over the next few months to get them both elected.” A “smart choice” by Kerry, eh? Is that all you can say, Ho-Ho? N othing about the Tar Heel’s per­ sonal expertise, talent or record that makes him eminently qualified to lead our nation? Dean was traveling to the West Coast Tuesday to raise cash for his personal political organization and could not be reached for comment. So we talked with his newest spokesman, Laura Gross, formerly with NPR. We wondered why H o-H o’s statement on Edwards’ selection offered so little in the way of com­ m ent on the person selected. “I think you’re nit-picking,” said Gross. Really? Dean’s three sentences, after all, are more about Kerry and Dean himself, than about Edwards. Sore-loser syndrome? Perhaps. But, if anything, the last year has shown us that if Howard Dean ran the country the way he ran his $50 million flash-inthe-pan presidential campaign, the country would be in pretty dire straights. Anyway, check out the latest on H o-H o in a fine piece by Meryl Gordon in the July 17 issue o f New York Magazine (www.newyork metro.com). In it, Dean names the top three “sleazebag reporters” he encountered on the campaign trail.’ And, on request, H o-H o also gives Chicago Cubs fans a rendition ofj the infamous Dean Scream. W hat a guy, eh? This Friday, Dean steps back into the national spotlight with a head-to-head debate with Ralph Nader at the National Press Club in Washington. VPR is carrying it live at 2 p.m. Yours truly’s betting on Nader. Surprise us, Ho-Ho.

Nail-Biter — In a case o f “don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched,” Progressive Steve Hingtgen is still not a lock for the November ballot. The Burlington Progressive is running for lieu­ tenant governor. And he’s chosen the public-financing route that once worked so well for Prog star Anthony Pollina. Under Vermont’s public-financ­ ing law, Hingtgen must raise $17,500 from 750 qualified con­ tributors by July 19. No contribu­ tion can be larger than $50. If he qualifies, the state will contribute the difference between what he’s raised and $100,000. The problem is, Hingtgen ain’t there yet. “It’s a nail-biter,” he told Seven Days Tuesday. He declined to give an exact dollar figure, but his web­ site (www.hingtgen.com) indicates Steve’s only a little past the half­ way point. The Progressive also indicated that if he doesn’t make the goal, he may withdraw from the race. T hat would be music to the ears of Democrats Cheryl Rivers and Jan

Backus. Backus and Rivers are facing off in the Democratic Primary. Incum ­ bent Brian Dubie is seeking his second win in three tries. Doobie-

Doo always gets about 41 percent of the vote. After all, he is a Republican running in the most liberal state in the nation. Four years ago, in the Doobster’s first try, 41 percent wasn’t good enough. But in 2002, Tony the Prog was in the race, fueled by the free money o f the public­ financing law he’d helped write. Pollina’s 25 percent held Democrat Peter Shumlin to 32 percent and Doobie-Doobie-Doo slid home safe with 41. Steve the Prog told Seven Days he hasn’t made a “final decision” on staying in the race if he fails to meet the $17,500 target. After all, he may raise enough dough in the waning days, especially if Dubie supporters get the word out that Steve needs quick cash or else their horse has a race. “I do believe strongly in the public-financing law,” said Hingtgen. He acknowledged the law “sets a hard requirement. The reason,” he explained, is that it’s “intentionally designed” to make a candidate seeking public financing “demonstrate strong support, and I really need that support.”

Media Notes — The latest Nielsen ratings show both local TV news stations slugging it out for audience share. In the M etro . Plattsburgh/Burlington market, Hearst-Argyle’s W PT Z (NBC) News is on top with a 39 percent share of the six o’clock audience compared to locally owned W CAX’s (CBS) 30 percent share. But extend that to the much larger Designated Market Area (DMA) that includes all of Vermont and a piece of New Hampshire, and Ch. 3 is tops with 31 percent compared to Ch. 5’s 25 percent share. It’s closer at 11 o’clock, where Ch. 5 again takes the Metro, and with help from sister station W N N E in W hite River, ties WCAX in the tri-state DMA. W ith numbers like that, both station’s news operations should have a pretty nice cash flow. WVNY (ABC) is getting the same tiny audience for “The Simpsons” at 6 that it got 'when it had a local news effort. Incident­ ally, former ABC 22 reporter Kelly Reardon is starting to blossom on W PTZ. She looks a lot more relaxed than she did on Ch. 22. Very well-trained lady: Princeton, Columbia Journalism and the London School of Economics. You knew it was only a matter of time. W ho wins on local late-night TV? Well, Jay Leno beats David Letterman in the Metro. But they’re in a dead heat in the DMA. And what about national news? N B C ’s Tom Brokaw gets the largest Metro audience at 6:30 p.m. with the Ch. 5 news lead-in. CBS’s Dan Rather is a close second at 7 p.m. ABC’s Peter Jennings, our favorite, is surprisingly a very dis­ tant third, no doubt due in part to the fact that he’s preceded by “The Simpsons.” Home for the Chief? — Last September Mayor Peter Clavelle chose Tom Tremblay over Steve Wark to be the Queen City’s new chief o f police. Both men were unquestionably qualified, but only


SEVEN DAYS I July 07-14, 2004 I inside track 17A

one, Tom Terrific, agreed to comply with the requirement that city departm ent heads live in the city that pays them. Under the rules, the new chief has one year to make the adjustment. A check with C hief Tremblay this week indicates he still lives in Essex. W ith O ctober 1 marking the end of his first year, Tremblay told Seven Days he currently has no immediate plans to move to Burlington. “I said that I would move if it remained a requirement for employ­ ment,” said the Chief. “I have been given until October to make a deci­ sion on residency. I have three months to make a decision.” Since Tremblay serves at the pleasure o f the mayor, we asked Mayor Moonie about the chief’s out-of-town residency. “I am not a fan of the residency requirement,” said Mayor Clavelle. “We ought to encourage all city employees to live in Burlington, but to require it poses some challenges.” If Chief Tom requests a waiver from the residency rule, Clavelle told Seven Days he will support it. “Ultimately,” said da mayor, “it’s up to the City C ouncil.” Sounds like Burlington’s police chief will not be moving to Burlington, eh? Sounds like another one of those rules that was made to be broken.

Freeps Flag Update — Regrettably, as we’ve reported the past two weeks, Vermont’s largest newspaper, The Burlington Free Press, has for quite some time demonstrated a total lack of respect for the Stars and Stripes. A positively filthy, brown, black and blue American flag has long flown atop the Gannett-chain paper’s College Street flagpole night and day, rain or shine for as long as we remember. And it gets worse. At night, the Freeps’ American flag has not been illuminated, as the National Flag Foundation says it should (www. americanflags.org). And it gets worse. When President George W. Bush ordered all American flags to fly at half-mast for one month in honor of the death of former President Ronald Reagan, the local daily reported it as news but made absolutely no effort whatsoever to comply. But apparently people in high places at The Burlington Free Press are reading Seven Days. You see, last Thursday, after our second mention of the newspaper’s shameful disre­ gard of the American flag, Publisher/President James Carey sprang into action. A brand-new flag suddenly appeared on the Freeps’ flagpole. And get this, for the first time since Reagan died, it was flying at halfstaff! Better three weeks late than never, eh? Unfortunately, Carey’s leaving his new flag flying at night w ithout the proper illumination. Probably would cut into the profit margin if he paid for a light? These things take time, eh? ®

monologues Tommy is delivering to his own audience. Will he ever give Hedwig the credit she deserves? Will Hedwig ever learn to speak civilly to Yitzhak, her long-suffering backup singer and “husband,” whom she uses as a punching bag in her one­ sided verbal sparring? The movie version of Hedwig uses flashbacks and a full cast to dramatize these conflicts from Hedwig’s past. But in the play, which unfolds in real time, it’s all about the diva herself. She speaks directly to us, playing most of the parts in her story. “It’s like a trainwreck — a therapy session gone wrong,” says Toms. The Burlington production of Hedwig had its genesis when Toms saw the Off-Broadway production and was “floored.” “I wanted to take the challenge; to see if I could do justice to this character,” he says. Jonathan W hitton, who’s codi­ recting the show with Jordan Gullikson, had a similar experience when he first saw Hedwig in a New York “flophouse.” “I fell in love with this person,” says W hitton — so much so that he felt compelled to stage it back home in South Carolina. When he moved to Vermont last January, W hitton took one look at 135 Pearl and thought, “This would be a perfect place to do Hedwig.” The actual impetus for the pro­ duction came from Toms, who recruited W hitton and Gullikson, a New York-trained actor-director who had worked with him on Shoebox’s production of Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens. Gullikson sees his role as bringing out the differ­ ent levels of Hedwig’s drama. “W ithin the humor and kitsch, it’s

July 8, 9, 15, “I was at Nectar’s eating gravy fries, and 16, 17 and 18, they were over there doing acoustic folk rock,” 7:30 p.m. she says, sniffing with outrage. “We’re a punk band, and they were covering Dave MatthewsT After Hedwig threatens to perform solo, armed only with maracas, two members of the errant band appear. The songstress forgives them for their defection, but only just: “If I was you, I would get your asses on your gui­ tars, because I have your passports right here. It would be oh-so-sad to get thrown out of the country right before the Fourth of July.” W ith surly glances but no backtalk, the partial band — “Skszp” on guitar, “Krzysztof” on bass — launches into one of its signature songs, the haunting “Origin of Love.” Between numbers, Hedwig takes, out some of her resid­ ual pissiness on the audience, which now , includes a knot of gawkers outside on the pavement. “Why is that funny?” she asks after

I

one of her more egregious double-entendres gets a laugh. “This is a rough crowd.” But she’s a lady to the last, exiting the venue with a polite “Thank you for having me!” And, of course, “Come see the show!” Actually, all this is taking place at 135 Pearl; the show — Hedwig and the Angry Inch starts a six-night run there this Thursday. It’s the Burlington premiere of John Cameron Mitchell’s cult rock musical, which played offBroadway to acclaim and awards from 1998 to 20Q0. Since then, Hedwig productions have spread across the globe, and the film version made a splash at the Sundance Festival in 2001. It comes to Vermont thanks to Robert Toms. The 35-year-old artistic director of 135 Pearl and its Shoebox Theater plays Hedwig in the show. The play takes the form of a rock cabaret in which Hedwig tells her life story through songs and monologues, pausing along the. way to tease the audience or taunt her stone-faced band. She was born a boy — Hansel — in Communist East Berlin and raised on Ameri­ can pop-rock. A Crying Game moment with an African-American sergeant precipitated a sexchange. But the operation was bungled, leav­ ing Hedwig with an “angry inch” that gives the lie to her femininity. As the play begins, years and rejections have transformed Hedwig from an Army wife into a small-venue punk-rock princess with an axe to grind. Just a few blocks over in Memorial Auditorium, her ex-lover Tommy Gnosis, a geeky-teen-turned-rock-icon, is per­ forming a show consisting of songs stolen from Hedwig. Through an “open” door we hear snatches of the hilariously heavy-handed

writer. She’s toured regionally with bassist Chris Cheney, who came with her to the show. Keyboardist Adam Wood and drummer Chris Johnson, both veterans of the local music scene, round out the band. “This takes me out of the genre I’m used to,” says Antara, who does confess to an affinity for glam rock. The ensemble she’s created is “not typical of the Hedwig bands” — to start with, it substitutes acoustic rhythm for electric lead guitar. Then there’s the fact that Antara has switched vocals with Yitzhak, played here by local musician and performance artist Nathan Jarvis. “It adds another layer of gender confusion,” says Antara. Hedwig straddles a metaphorical Berlin Wall between male and female, personifying that blurry line of demarkation. Does she per­ sonify gay pride as well? Toms thinks so. To him, the show says “that it’s OK to hold true to your individuality and uniqueness. It’s about universality and coexisting: being who you are in the main­ stream. Gay Pride Day is a day of celebration. But the ultimate good is living in that freedom every day.” If Hedwig is about freedom, however, it’s also about power and domination. In one of her more acerbic monologues, Hedwig describes how the sergeant first seduced her with a pack of>-> American gummy bears. Many recent Hollywood films present wigs and high heels as talismans that liberate men of all Jpes to discover their feminine sides. But the problem with Hedwig’s sex change isn't just that it was incom­ plete — it also wasn’t her idea in the first place. So is'gender confu­ sion cool, or just confusing?

T h e re ’s a lot of te n sio n in this play. T h e w ay it’s written, there’s a d o s e of c a m p , a n d then there’s a sort of bipolar undercurrent of ‘Hey, w h y are you la u g h in g at m e ? ’ ANTARA

an amazingly powerful story,” he says. “The show’s continuity gives it its emotional power.” “There’s a vulnerability attached to playing Hedwig, because you’re wide open,” says W hitton, who played the role in South Carolina. He says he’s letting Toms “feel the character out for himself.” Then there’s the music. A robust Angry Inch back-up band is as cru­ cial to the show’s success as a wellrealized Hedwig. O n occasion, they play her foil. Burlington’s version of the sullen Eastern Bloc foursome is a novel fusion — Toms isn’t kid­ ding when he talks about them get­ ting folky at the Waiting Room. The show’s musical director refers to herself simply as Antara. Originally from Cincinnati, she plays lead guitar and describes h er-' self as a “new folk” singer-song-

“There’s a lot of tension in this play,” says Antara. “The way it’s written, there’s a dose of camp, and then there’s a sort of bipolar under­ current o f ‘Hey, why are you laugh­ ing at me?’ People ask me if it’s OK to laugh.” She says the cast and crew of the 135 Pearl production made a conscious decision to bring out the play’s political undercurrents, rather than focusing on “the camp and the drag of it all. That’s why our fliers don’t have the lipstick and the hair.” When you start looking closely at Hedwig, Antara suggests, you find a “tornado of information” — not just the “push and pull” of dif­ ferent sexual identities, but also the German-Jewish history that Hedwig references through her mistreatment of Yitzhak. There’s more to this musical than a Rocky Horror for the new millennium. ® '

t first glance, Kate Jerman and Lluvia Mulvaney-Stanak don’t look like movers and shakers. You certainly wouldn’t peg the two short-haired, bespectacled women as co-execu­ tive directors for Outright Vermont, a statewide agency that provides information and support to gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered and questioning youth, 22 and under. For one thing, the women are pretty young themselves: Jerman is 24, Mulvaney-Stanak, 23. Plus, they don’t dress the part of “execu­ tives.” For an interview at the Outright offices on St. Paul Street in Burlington, both wear jeans and T-shirts. Mulvaney-Stanak, a parttime DJ at The Buzz, also sports a small black guitar pick on a chain around her neck, and a black warm-up jacket emblazoned with the word “Rock.” And the women speak fluent teenager. Sitting on a donated gold couch in Xando, O utright’s drop-in youth center, MulvaneyStanak expounds upon the nuances of her job, from schmoozing donors to leading a youth group on a trip to the Statehouse: “I was like, thank God 1 have youth with me, because M r'

Outright directors h ave to deal with m o re than just a volatile public — the k id s w h o c o m e lo okin g for su p p o rt are often in crisis. they’re younger than I am.” She’s incredulous when her interviewer looks clueless at a refer­ ence to TRL. “Total Request Live?” MulvaneyStanak prompts. “MTV? Carson Daly? You should write that down.” In the six months since they took the helm at Outright, the two women have earned a reputation for being passionate, articulate advocates for queer youth. (Note to the p.c.: It’s OK to call them “queer youth” — that’s what they call themselves.) Together they’re challenging not just homophobia but also the perception that young people can’t be effective leaders. “A youth organization has a responsibility to have youth voices in every aspect,” Mulvaney-Stanak insists. “We are really walk­ ing our walk. O ur mission is not just to sup­ port and advocate for youth, it’s to be young people that are moving and shaking this com­ munity.” Initially, many in the queer community were skeptical that the youthful co-directors could handle the kind of controversy the organ­ ization has sparked over 15 years. Outright’s practice of sending workshop leaders into schools to teach tolerance of queer kids roused the ire of anti-gay activists during the assault against civil unions in 2000. Dozens of angry letters vilifying the group appeared in newspa­ pers across the state, and staff members received death threats. As a result of public pressure, the Department of Education elimi­ nated the group’s state funding. O utright directors have to deal with more than just a volatile public — the kids who

come looking for support are often in crisis. Results from the 2003 Vermont Department of Health Youth Risk Behavior Survey, avail­ able on O utright’s website, show that students who report having had same-gender sex are more likely than other kids to get in physical fights, to use drugs such as cocaine and heroin, and to attempt suicide. Were Jerman and Mulvaney-Stanak ready for this challenge? Sam Abel-Palmer, chairperson of O utright’s board of directors, was one of the skeptics. Although the two women had been working as program assistants since August 2002 — and departing director B.J. Rogers recommended them for the job — “I had some doubts,” Abel-Palmer concedes. He warmed to the idea after hearing the women talk after a board meeting. “The more I heard, the more impressed I was.” Board member Craig Stevens recalls getting some flak about the decision, but he defends Jerman and Mulvaney-Stanak vigorously, calling them “Renaissance people.” He adds, “They have a great rapport with youth, and a great ability to work with policy makers as well.” So far this assessment seems to bear out. Jerman reports that attendance is up at O utright’s Friday night support group; so is participation in the Wednesday evening dropin program. The organization currently serves 100 to 130 individuals — and counting. “We average 23 new youth each quarter,” Jerman says. She also notes an up-tick in O utright’s online traffic — Mulvaney-Stanak took control of the website earlier this year. Previously an outside contractor managed the site, which Jerman says was geared towards potential fun­ ders rather than youth. Mulvaney-Stanak updates it much more frequently, and posts safe-sex information along with news about the group and upcoming events such as Drag American Idol. “Compared to rhe first quarter of this year,” attests Jerman, “our email and website contacts went up 50 percent.” They also reach more people through work­ shops and presentations. Last week alone, Jerman spoke in St. Johnsbury, Killington and Brattleboro. And the groups relationship with the Department of Education, while not fully repaired, is “steadily improving,” she says. Board member Stevens credits the new direc­ tors. “They have the savvy to build those bridges,” he says.

People who have known Jerman and Mulvaney-Stanak shouldn’t be surprised at how things have turned out. Both boast resumes packed with activism and organizing experi­ ence. Jerman, admittedly the more reserved of the two — “I’m the serious one,” she quips — has the more dramatic story. She came out as a lesbian at 14, during her sophomore year at Essex High School. Her parents were fine with it; her peers had a problem. As the schools only out student, she became a target for homophobes. “I had people spit on me,” the soft-spoken organizer reveals. Angered by the attacks, Jerman brought her concerrls to her teachers, who didn’t believe her. “They told me, ‘This stuff doesn’t happen here.’” She fought back by organizing homo­ phobia workshops at Essex High, and by par­ ticipating in dozens of Outright panel discus-

JERMAN (LEFT) AND A MULVANEY-STANAK

,, sions, where she described her expe­ riences to students in schools all across the state. After graduating from Essex, Jerman attended the University of Vermont. There she joined the cam­ pus GLBTA (gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and ally) group, and moved into “A Room of O ur Ow n,” a queer-themed housing suite in the Living/Learning Center. Professor and GLBTA advisor Jackie Weinstock got to know Jerman well when the activist took her class on sexual identities. “She was one of those really motivated students who wanted to learn to put things into practice,” Weinstock recalls. “She was just passionate about doing the work.” For her final project in Weinstock’s class, Jerman and fellow stu­ dent Mike Bensil started a series of conversations that led to the estab­ lishment, of the R.U.I.2.? Queer Community Center, now one of the state’s largest queer organizations. After her sophomore year, Jerman transferred to New York University and earned a B.S. in social work. She then served as medical-services director at a queer community center in Queens before returning to Vermont for her job at Outright. “I’d always wanted to work here,” she says. Mulvaney-Stanak envisioned her career differently. “Lluvia thought she was going to be a DJ,” quips Jerman. “Thought?” MulvaneyStanak interjects. “I am! I still am. Stop that.” In fact; the Barre City native gave up a full-time DJ gig at The Point to work at Outright. She comes from a family of organizers: Her mother runs a nonprofit in Barre, her father is president of the Vermont State Employees Association, and her twin

sister runs the Livable Wage Project at Burlington’s Peace and Justice Center. Mulvaney-Stanak recalls one family vacation that included a stop at the former home of labor leader Eugene V. Debs. She launched her activist career after arriving at Castleton State College in 1998. “She hit the ground running her freshman year,” says Victoria Angis, assistant dean for campus life. “W ithin a couple of months, everybody on campus knew Lluvia.” The dean says Mulvaney-Stanak was a “master juggler.” She ran the concert committee, served as vice president of Student Activities, worked on the radio station, and served as president of the campus GLBTA group. When she graduat­ ed, Castleton honored her service at the school; the GLBTA even named an award after her. Now Mulvaney-Stanak uses her powers of persuasion to motivate Outright kids to get involved — from testing for HIV to registering to vote. “I do a lot of carrot-hold­ ing,” she says. She also leads some workshops, including several at the Community High School of Vermont in Burlington. The school is run by the Vermont Department of Corrections and serves kids in the criminal-justice system. Vocational Coordinator Warren Hardy praises Mulvaney-Stanak’s ease at connect­ ing with the kids. He says his students are a partic­ ularly tough audience. Trying to teach them tolerance for queer peo­ ple can be tricky. “The attitude around here, everything is ‘f-ing fag’ and, ‘If any of these fags touched my ass I would kill him ,”’ Hardy says. Mulvaney-Stanak got through to them. “The rapport was excel­ lent,” he says. “Her delivery sucked

the kids in immediately, to where they got up and did role-reversal role plays.” Now Hardy brings in Outright every semester, encouraging kids to see the links between racism, homo­ phobia and the discrimination they face as offenders. “Having Outright come in assures these students that they’re not a forgotten or discarded population,” he says. But Mulvaney-Stanak admits she’s had a harder time working with young people one-on-one, especially in the Friday groups. “I remember the first month being, like, ‘W hat did I get myself into?”’ she says. “Kate would talk me off the ceiling once in a while...” Jerman seems less daunted by interacting with boisterous or emo­ tional kids. She’s comfortable dis­ cussing how to help youth make healthy choices without actually telling them what to do. “We don’t usually have to initiate that stuff,” she says. “.. .And so many of them don’t have anybody to talk to that we hear everything. It all just comes out.” Jerman stresses that Outright can be a fun place, too. One recent Wednesday afternoon, she accompa­ nies two queer youth to North Beach, where they make sand castles. Twenty-year-old Alia Stavrand Woolf and 22-year-old Charles Spring don’t have any real problems to discuss. They just want to hang out. Both say the two directors were the right choice for the organiza­ tion, and Woolf thinks it’s impor­ tant that they’re young. “Especially in a space like this,” she says, “where it’s important to feel safe. They’re less like authority figures, more like mentors.” A hundred feet away, two guys throw a Frisbee. W hen one misses, the other calls him a fag. ®

It’s long been know n and expected th a t you m ight die for your sexual preference anyw here in the M iddle East and, for th at m atter, all over C h in a and w hat we call “A sia.” But the news ab o u t Latin A m erica is som eth in g o f a sur­ prise, given th a t Rio de Janeiro and Buenos A re s are at th e top o f “A -List” cities th a t gay boys can go to fo r... gay-boy things. It’s som ething we should all be th in k in g ab o u t on Pride Day. In A m nesty’s reckoning, “h o m o ­ phobia” has reached “epidem ic levels” aro u n d the w orld. “Lesbian an d gay people w ho form or jo in organizations, be they political or social, are being violently persecuted in m any parts o f th e w orld w here before they m ig h t have been u n n o ­ ticed ,” w rites Vanessa Baird in her new book, Sex, Love a n d Homophobia, published u n d er A m nesty’s im print. “A n d this is n o t all ju st a

For w om en, it’s th at m uch worse. If it w eren’t for the laws we have here, we’d all be execut­ ed just for being. Now, on o u r Pride Day, com es Bishop G ene R obinson o f N ew H am pshire — “the first openly gay Episcopal Bishop,” etc. — preaching at St. Paul’s C athedral this Saturday at-3:30 in the afternoon.

It isn’t possible to rec­ oncile C hrist w ith th e hateful accusations directed against R obinson — and if, as now, he declares th a t he will “give no interview s,” it’s because he has, and has always had, som ething larger to say. “I have no shred o f d o u b t th a t I am loved beyond m y w ildest im agining,” R obinson says.

M ATTH EW TH O R SEN "Queer Jokes at the Flynn, Folks!" FlynnSpace, Burlington. Friday, July 9, 7:30 & 9:30 p.m.

Merr and id you hear the one about the deli worker who thought “gbit” was a gay bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich? You will at the Flynn’s firstever evening of all-queer, stand-up comedy. The laugh fest, which kicks off Pride Weekend, features a trinity of local comics who are anything but holy. Jason P. Lorber, the show’s producer, has performed improv locally with Kamikaze Comics. He’s also done his own shows at Nectar’s and Radio Bean, as well as at the Punchline in Atlanta, Georgia. When he’s not making jokes, he’s a wannabe politician, cam­ paigning for Steve Hintgen’s seat in the Vermont State House. Now that’s funny. Deb Renshaw is a psychotherapist who challenges herself every year on her birthday to do something she has never done before. When she turned 45, it was a stand-up per­ formance at Eddie’s Attic, also in Atlanta. She took first prize. It’s been barely a year since Jane Holdman, a.k.a. “Daddy,” came out as a comedian, but the Burlington performer already has a hot schedule and a loyal, growing fan base — enough to pack

four solo shows at two venues in 10 months. The 32-year-old day-care provider was born in the Philippines and grew up in Middlebury. She was voted Class Clown in high school - “I was up for Most Likely to Suceed,” she says, “but I turned it down.” Daddy was “discovered” by Bob Driver, who entertains appreciative crowds as Naomi G. He overheard her one night at 135 Pearl, regaling friends with stories about her mom. Driver asked Holdman to “fill in” by doing stand-up during wardrobe changes in his act at The Waiting Room. Holdman’s eight-minute sets drew such an enthusiastic response that Queer Lounge directors Scott Mitchell and Elliot Matos asked her to put together a show of her own. During a very funny hour over drinks at Burlington’s Muddy Waters, Holdman reveals details about her life in the laugh lane. She has a rich, sly delivery style and punctuates her stories with playful physical humor and raucous vocalizations that range from mock screams to hisses — none of which comes through in print. To catch the full Daddy effect, you’ve got to see her in person.

SEVEN DAYS: How do you get ready to perform?

friends at high school.

DADDY: I practice really faithfully, then the night before, I put the set list together.

SD: Seriously? She thought you were fencing her Tupperware? I mean — to teenagers?

SD: Set list?

DADDY: Well, my mom is crazy. I don’t make anything up. You know when a crazy person tells you something, I think they must really believe it. So I do a lot of visuals. I say all right, let’s visualize that. Let’s imagine me at the school. I’m looking like a drug dealer. And I’m selling Tupperware. To make a set list, I think OK what would be a good story to go with that? Do I have enough material? Because I have to hang out with my mother to get the material, which is really annoying.

SD: How does that happen? DADDY: Well, some stories go really well together. Like the Tupperware story—

SD: The Tupperware story? DADDY: My mom, when I was in high school, she screamed at me for two weeks. She thought there was Tupperware missing and she thought I was taking the Tupperware that was missing from our house and selling it to my

SD: If you need something, do you try to provoke her instead of waiting for something to come up?


SEVEN DAYS I july 07-14, 2004 I feature 27A DADDY: Once I asked her an “if” question — like that book, The What If? Book. I said, “Mom, if you could cure any disease in the world, what would it be?” Aiid I was surprised, she answered me right away. She said, “AIDS.” I was blown away, like wow, my Mom really cares about my com­ munity. So I said to her, “Mom, that’s really great — ” and she inter­ rupted me, “No, no, not AIDS. No, no, no, ah... herpes

SD: You never know, I mean you're going to be famous— DADDY: Oh, sure!

SD: It seems like you do a lot of benefits — there was Estrogen Fest, to which you donated your time, and then a handful of things for Safe Space. And this is all in one year. Do you have a sort of philosophy about that?

G IA N T T E N T S A L E

DADDY: There are a lot of benefits out there. Sometimes I have to say no. I mean if I’m not free, I cant do it. If I can do it, I try to because it’s giving back to the community and I feel like that’s my responsibility.

SD: That's admirable, very role-model of you. Tell me, is doing comedy a "chick mag­ net" kind of gig? DADDY: Well yeah, I mean, yeah, I’m not gonna lie. I think the ladies like it. Everybody would want someone to take walks on the beach with them and make them laugh. I have a girlfriend now, I’m actually living with my partner, and she thinks it’s cool.

SD: If your life was a fairy tale, which one would it be? DADDY: Well I would say Robin Hood except I gave up stealing, so that’s out.

SD: Cinderella? DADDY: No, no I don’t think so, unless they had, like, Butch-erella.

SD: Well, maybe something more contemporary would be a better question. If they remade a movie with you as the star, what movie would it be? DADDY: It would have to be G.I. Jane. After all, they wouldn’t have to change the name, and Demi and I definitely have the same body.

SD: But they'd have to change the love interest — DADDY: Angelina Jolie. Definitely Angelina Jolie. We show them how girls can kick ass, too. Then we fall in love, come out, get discharged from the military for being gay, and make a sequel to Bound.

SD: You're going to be busy! DADDY: I’m looking forward to it. ©

With a n e w h o m e a n d controversial n a m e , R .U .1 .2? c o m e s of a g e hat’s your take on the word “queer?” If you’re over 40, it may trigger disturbing memories of grade-school gay baiting, where the label alone was enough to result in a beating, or worse. Perhaps it’s more like “dyke” or “fag” — it depends upon who’s saying it and why. If you’re under 30, chances are that “queer” is more like a pink triangle, an archaic badge of oppression that’s been flipped on its head and reclaimed as a symbol of identity and pride. At its grand opening last month, the R.U.1.2? Queer Community Center became the first of its kind in the country to incorpo­ rate a word in its title that was once an offen­ sive and hate-filled epithet. With a new sign out front proclaiming they’re here and they’re queer, R.U.1.2? — as in, “Are You One, Too?” — has staked out its turf as a progressive advo­ cacy group serving Vermonters of all ages, gen­ ders and sexual orientations. R.U.1.2? supporters admit that the contro­ versial wording of the name may not have been the best strategy for overcoming its long­ standing reputation as a “youth” organization. But let’s face it: There aren’t many umbrella terms that accurately and succinctly refer to everyone whose sexual identity falls outside the straight and narrow. To many queer folk, “gay

But regardless of which way you steer on “queer,” the opening of the Queer Community Center — attended by a number of local politi­ cians, including former Governor Howard Dean — symbolizes a coming of age of sorts for a new crop of queer activists, whose goals and priorities differ from those of earlier gener­ ations. The fight for gay rights in the 1970s, ’80s and ’90s was largely a reaction to common enemies such as AIDS and AIDS deniers, as well as an effort to secure fundamental human rights — anti-discrimination laws in housing, employment, public accommodations, and so on. R.U. 1.2?s agenda, in contrast, seems more proactive. Today, says Kaufman, R.U.1.2? is focusing primarily on the physical, emotional and educational needs of its constituency. To do that, he says, requires reaching out to a broader spectrum of the queer community -— in particular, the older generation. “I think that one of the things that queer people are bad at is remembering and honoring where we came from and the work that came before,” Kaufman says. “One of the primary factors is that this culture, and queer culture in particu­ lar, is very youth focused. It’s very much about being young, pretty and a sexual object. Older queer people have much less visibility.”

and lesbian” isn’t accommodating enough, and the more inclusive, “lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender,” produces a clunky acronym — LGBT — that looks like something concocted by the U.S. Department of Transportation. As R.U.1.2? Executive Director Christopher Kaufman puts it, “We’ve had to fight for our language and identity all along. Queer is just anothet step in the process.” In fact, many queer-activist groups have since dropped their gay, lesbian, et al. identi­ fiers entirely, and that troubles some older activists. “For the longest time, ever since the Pride Committee incorporated as Pride Vermont, I’ve thought, ‘Are we talking milk? Are we talking maple syrup?”’ notes Euan Bear, editor of Out in the Mountains, Vermont’s only LGBT publication, which is now housed in the R.U.1.2? building. “W hat happened to les­ bians, gay men, bisexuals and transgenders? At least ‘queer’ comes closer.” Do semantics really matter? Some contend that to even speak of Vermont’s “gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and queer community” is to suggest a homogeneity where none exists.

LAW

Part of the problem may be demographic: Throughout the 1980s and early 1990s, the AIDS epidemic cut a huge swath across the gay-male community. As a result, many of Vermont’s older gay-male activists aren’t around anymore, a fact sometimes overlooked by younger activists. “There’s clearly a genera­ tional distinction,” notes Bennett Law, a long­ time gay activist and R.U.1.2? supporter. Law now serves on the advisory committee of the Vermont Unity Project, a program that raises money from nontraditional (read: straight) sources to fund gay and lesbian groups in Vermont. “In my generation, everybody knows somebody who died of AIDS,” Law adds. “A lot of people who are 20 or 25 probably don’t. And they probably had a very different experi­ ence growing up.” O f course, it’s not just twentysomething gay males who sometimes forget whose shoulders they stand on. Alverta Perkins is an 80-year-old lesbian who came out in her fifties. She belongs to a group of over-40 lesbians called the Grones, and notes that most publically acknowledged les­ bians of her generation were politically active,

G ia n t S w i w Q especially in feminist causes like breast cancer and domestic violence. “We were very intense and committed to our feminist ideals. 1 don’t see that happening as much today,” Perkins says. “I wonder if young women really know how hard we worked for the advantages they have.” Bear at Out in the Mountains agrees. She says that many younger lesbians — and Vermont women in general — have no idea that vital community services such as the Women’s Rape Crisis Center and Women Helping Battered Women were founded by lesbians. “It was a heady, exhilarating time. We were doin^jreally tough work,” Bear recalls of the 1970s and early ’80s. As a result, she says, countless women “didn’t commit suicide after being brutally raped or didn’t end up being murdered by an abusive boyfriend or husband.” It’s not surprising that five-yearold R.U.1.2?, an organization found­ ed by two University of Vermont students, is on the young side. Many older queer folk have been reluctant to embrace the group because it doesn’t provide services or programs geared for them. But that’s beginning to change. As Kaufman explains, R.U.1.2? is making a concerted effort to close the queer generation gap. For exam­ ple, the center hosts coming-out support groups for adults and transgertdered people. Earlier this year, it sponsored a conference at UVM on issues confronting the gay elderly. R.U.1.2? is also spearheading the Vermont Diversity Health Project (VDHP), which trains health-care providers to be nonjudgmental and more queer friendly in their prac­ tices while also connecting them with queer patients. VDHP, a col­ laborative effort with Outright Vermont, SafeSpace and the New England AIDS Education and Training Center, reflects a growing trend toward broader coalition building. “I feel like today,

R.U.1.2?, and the queer community in general, reaches out to its allies more,” says Khristian KempDeLisser, a former VISTA at R.U.1.2? “It’s sort of like Howard Dean trying to reclaim the left.” R.U.1.2? is also acknowledging its past through the Vermont Queer Archives, a collaborative effort to document and preserve cultural arti­ facts from Vermont’s LGBT history, many of which are now on display in the center. Rep. Bill Lippert, known for his eloquent support of civil unions within the Legislature, is a longtime gay-rights activist and founder and executive director of the Samara Foundation, which funds scholar­ ships, LGBT groups and anti-dis­ crimination campaigns throughout Vermont. In the early 1970s, Lippert belonged to a gay support group that held monthly dances at the High Hat — now Nectar’s — in down­ town Burlington. The events attract­ ed hundreds of people from around the region. Back then, Vermont did­ n’t have a gay bar, and gay men and lesbians were often thrown out of clubs for dancing with one another, even arrested for trespassing. Once a month, Lippert and his friends would organize an event, publicized by posters put up around town. “I walked into the R.U.1.2? Community Center about a year ago and just about fell over. There was one of the posters I had silk screened in the 1970s,” Lippert recalls. “W hat a flood of memories.” Lippert acknowledges that R.U.1.2? had a reputation for being too youth-centric. But he says that charge doesn’t hold up anymore. He’s encouraged by the center’s growing interest in issues affecting older gay men and lesbians, particu­ larly those involving children and families. And he encourages R.U.1.2? to put even more emphasis in that direction, especially as grow­ ing numbers of same-sex couples move to Vermont to adopt children,

or have their own. Law agrees. “You can’t go to a gay and lesbian function today with­ out tripping over somebody’s kids. Everybody has a kid,” he says. “A lot of the activism today has to do with how our children are viewed by the state, how they’re viewed by the courts, and how they’re viewed by the school systems.” Straight parents have had to get used to sending their first grader to school knowing that “Joey has two mommies or Heather has two dad­ dies,” he says. “You always have in the back of your mind, ‘Geez! What am I exposing this kid to?”’ Lippert says the opening of the R.U.1.2? Queer Community Center comes at a fitting time in American history. In the last year, the U.S Supreme Court struck down all the remaining sodomy laws in the 13 states that made it illegal for gays to have sex with one another. Massachusetts legalized gay mar­ riages, sparking a wave of gay mar­ riages coast to coast. And the Episcopal Church ordained its first openly gay bishop, who leads a church service this weekend at St. Paul’s Cathedral in Burlington. In Vermont, the Legislature passed two bills this year that directly or indirectly benefit the queer com­ munity. One act offers greater pro­ tections for GLBT students and the children of GLBT parents. The sec­ ond requires state schools to adopt anti-bullying policies, and provides legal remedies for students who are subjected to persistent harassment. “I think we’re living in the most exciting period in all of history in the United States for lesbian and gay folks,” Lippert says. “In Vermont, it’s been over a decade that people have been talking about starting a community center. R.U.1.2? was a project that’s been in the works for years, but the time is clearly right for it.” ® Cathy Resmer contributed to this story.

in the Philippines. They spent another year in a refugee camp before gaining admission to the United States. Quang could speak almost no English when they got to Kansas City, where some relatives had settled earlier. “Even though we had managed to save our lives and get to the U.S., this was a hard peri­ od for us,” he says. Quang’s parents and siblings were disoriented and worried about the fate o f relatives who had stayed behind in Vietnam. This succession o f traumas at a young age shaped Q uang’s tragic view o f history and his keen sense of the impermanence of all earthly relations, possessions and experiences.

has grown so adept with the wetted brush that he often paints on unforgiv­ ing rice paper. The slightest mistake can ruin an entire image. Although his genre scenes do not vary much, Q uang is able to infuse his works with distinctively different moods due to his skill representing the effects of light. Some of his watercolors include figures that are crisply outlined by trop­ ical sunshine, while in others the human subjects are hazily defined as they go about their business at twilight or in monsoon rains. Q uang’s strength lies in depicting landscapes and urban settings. He is able to convey, sometimes quite power­ fully, the feel as well as the look o f a particular place. But he is less successful in rendering the human form; his faces often lack character and individuality. Quang identifies his main influences as the American watercolor masters John

ife changed profoundly for Quang Nguyen after he twisted his ankle play­ ing tennis one afternoon seven years ago in Hanover, New Hampshire. His had hardly been an ordinary journey up to that point, but an epiphany following his injury would lead Q uang on an even less conventional course. At the time, he was a 29-year-old artist winning renown for his evocative watercolors of country and city life in Vietnam. Quang was also working at the D artm outh Co-op as its visual-arts coordinator and living happily with a male partner. His life looked like anoth­ er all-American success story — you know, the one about the immigrant from an impoverished, oppressed coun­ try who achieves prosperity in the Land of the Free. Except that Nguyen’s early years in his native Vietnam were marked by excessive wealth, not scarcity. O n his fourth birthday, he recalls with amuse­ ment, his father gave him a life-size, solid-gold statue o f a chicken. Q uang Nguyen was born in 1968 in Tui Hoa, a town about 400 miles north o f Saigon, during the time o f the Tet Offensive. Viet C ong guerrillas were staging attacks throughout South Vietnam that would push the U.S.

toward withdrawal from Southeast Asia. A few years later, the Viet Cong and their N orth Vietnamese allies were sweeping victoriously southward and the Nguyens fled to Saigon. They had good reason to fear the impending col­ lapse o f the American-allied govern­ ment, because Q uang’s father ranked as one of the top officers in the South Vietnam intelligence service. But at 7, Q uang viewed the final spasms of the war as a gigantic fireworks display. He remembers that the sky above Saigon was “completely lit up” on each of the last three nights of fighting. Soon after the com munist takeover, Q uang’s father was arrested and threat­ ened with immediate execution. But he persuaded his captors to spare his life by concocting a tale about a brother being an influential figure in the N orth Vietnam government. The elder Nguyen was then sent to a “re-educa­ tion camp,” where he nearly starved to death. His health was so bad that he was released on hum anitarian grounds. Stripped o f their wealth and relying on handouts from relatives, the Nguyens spent the next three years plotting an escape from Vietnam. In 1979, some 40 members of the Nguyen clan boarded a boat and, after eight days at sea, landed

While in junior high, Quang was required to take an art class in which he claims to have felt no interest and demonstrated no talent. But his teacher “must have seen something in my draw­ ings no one else saw,” he says. “She encouraged me to do more and more.” In high school, he was awarded a gold medal for an intricately designed embossing and won a full scholarship to art school. Quang was now committed to becoming an artist, but his father wanted him to go to medical school. W hen Q uang refused, his father threat­ ened to disown him. To avoid a com­ plete estrangement, Quang agreed to move to Dallas to help his father open a Chinese restaurant. Eventually, however, the yearning to paint grew irrepressible, and he enrolled in the Kansas City Art Institute. There, and in the years following graduation, Q uang’s talent flowered fully. Scenes o f daily life in Vietnam had become his subject matter, and watercolor his medium.

"I know some artists think watercolor is difficult to work with, but for me it came naturally,” Q uang says. He

Singer Sargent and Winslow Homer. His vibrant images of Vietnamese peasants stooping in a rice paddy or market women bartering with customers are entirely Western in composition. He says he feels little affinity for the “heavily styl­ ized” art o f Asia. As Quang sits for an interview at the Starbucks Cafe in South Burlington’s Barnes & Noble, other customers prob­ ably don’t suspect he’s the creator of the paintings hanging nearby. Taking a break from his job as a manager at the nearby Kohl’s departm ent store, he’s wearing a dress shirt and tie; his hair is closely cropped and his manner is busi­ nesslike. Q uang smiles more readily as the conversation progresses, and he punctuates his colloquial English with graceful hand gestures. He explains that he does preliminary sketches for his watercolors,during year­ ly visits to Vietnam, which he began making in 1993. Living conditions have improved significantly for his family members there and for many other Vietnamese, due in no small measure, he says, to remittances from expatriates like himself. By the m id-’90s, he had established a

B comfortable life in Hanover, where he was regularly selling his work at local galleries. Then came the twisted ankle — and the turning point he associates with it. Retiring early from the tennis court, Quang says something caused him to pause near a col­ lection of miniature Buddha statues he kept in his apartment. Pulling back a sheet that covered one of them, he experienced a revelation telling him to immedi­ ately leave his lover and his art and enter a Buddhist monastery. Which is what he did. Quang says he had no devo­ tion to Buddhism as a child or young man; it was a cultural influence rather than a wellspring of faith. But “I found inner peace when I lifted up that cloth,” he explains. “Time just stopped altogether and suddenly everything made sense.” Quang spent three years in a Houston monastery, studying, meditating and doing no paint­ ing other than an occasional temple-bound Buddha. “The greatest lesson I learned was non-attachm ent,” Quang says. “Up to that time, painting Tad been my life.” But, he would no longer define himself in that way — not even after leaving the monastery in 2000 — “because then was not the time for me to be a monk,” He says jthat “time” will definitely come, however. Quang eventually returned to New Hampshire, finding a differ­ ent partner and job. He did begin painting again, but now he does it only when the mood strikes him — and solely, he says, for the trance-like serenity he achieves during the process. The actual product matters little, Quang insists. “My ego is gone,” he says. As evidence, he cites the case of a wealthy collector who saw two somber scenes Q uang had painted and offered to pay the artist’s full asking price of $10,000. Q uang says he politely asked the man why he wanted those particular pieces. W hen the would-be buyer replied that their colors would go well with his living-room motif, Quang refused to sell him the work. “It would have meant dishonoring the process,” he says. Quang moved to Essex last year after his partner was trans­ ferred from a Barnes & Noble in New Hampshire. As a result, a dozen or so of his watercolors were displayed last m onth in South Burlington. There were no price tags attached. Q uang says he received several calls from potential buyers, but all were dis­ suaded when they learned his non-negotiable prices were between $3000 and $7000. W hether he sells any works at all has become a matter o f indif­ ference to him, Q uang m ain­ tains. “Art for me has become strictly a vehicle for reaching inner peace. It’s not a com modi­ ty for me to make a living from,” he says. “I think all the joy would be gone if I made it a career choice.” ®

reviewth is THE MAGIC IS GONE, NO ONE WILL EVER BE COMPLETELY SATISFIED (Self-released, CD) Burlington alt-rock vets The Magic is Gone are back with a fresh EP. Front man Colin Clary is leader of The Sm ittens and a prolific artist on his own. But where The Sm ittens specialize in sugary-sweet, sexually am biguous pop and Clary's solo work strays into doe-eyed singer-songw riter territory, TMG is his chance to rock. And rock he does, packing enough ringing g u i­ tars, ch ugging bass and thunderous drums into the record's 18 minutes to create a num bing wave of sound. "Space, As Opposed to Ligh t" kick-starts the record with a punchy riff and "d o do d o " chorus. "D o n 't Sink Aw ay" cruises along with a

lington photographer Amber

Sulick hung some black-and-white pri nts tsst wtsc-k at City Hall's Metropolitan Gallery, she didn't suspect that th e title of her exhibit, "Artificiality, Reflection, Circus and City," would prove oddly prophetic. Two Burlington City Arts staffers judged a couple photos of nude mannequins to be "obscene" and asked Sulick to remove them, which she did. According to clause 10 of its exhibition con­ tract — which Sulick signed — BCA bans nudity that contains "strong sexual content" or "promotes hate or violence." This language was crafted following a censorship flap at the Firehouse Gallery several years ago involving a painting of a man with a "tum escent" penis. But it's difficult to see how the Czech store-window mannequin pictured here m ight promote hateful or lustful thoughts. Some viewers may find censorship far more obscene than subjectively "o ffen sive" art; others may find the so-called "com m unity standards" for art in city-run spaces just right. Either way, let BCA know what you think (865-7166), or fire off a ■ letter to the editor (letters@ sevendaysvt.com ). And meanwhile, check out Sulick's remaining photos, which are quite good.

ovies based on comic books began losing their allure for me around 1992, the year Batman Returns came out. Could anyone have made a duller, less seductive Catwoman than Michelle Pfeiffer? Well, we’ll find out this summer, when Halle Berry bor­ rows the black leather outfit. The genre was in a handbasket by ’96 (The Phantom, The Crow: City o f Angels), well on its way to hell by ’97 (Batman & Robin, Spawn) and had hit rock bottom about the time Dark City was released in ’98. I’ve never been a big vower, but I made a sacred one at that point: Life is too short; no more movies based on comic books for me. As a consequence, I have not savored the cinematic pleasures of, among others, the X-Men and Blade films, The Punisher, The Hulk, or the sight of Ben Affleck saving the world as Daredevil. When the studio sent a DVD of Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man for award consideration in 2002,1 stuck it in my son’s Christmas stocking. He is 13 now and really, really, really wanted me to take him to the box-office-record-shattering sequel. As I had no one to blame but myself for making him a fan, I chose to honor his request over my promise. Was it everything I’d been led to expect? Sure. And less. I’d watch Tobey Maguire and Kirsten Dunst do their taxes, they’re both so talented and appealing. So definitely no problem there. Based on my research (a quick briefing from the boy as we stood in line to get popcorn), the second film is an introspectionfest compared with the first. In fact, the movie it reminded me of the most is Martin Scorsese’s The Last Temptation o f Christ. Raimi’s latest is very much a Last Temptation of Spidey sort of deal, with much of its running time devoted to Peter Parker’s brooding over whether being perpetually on call to aid mankind is worth the personal sacrifices required of him. In the film’s first third alone, his crime fighting costs him a pizza-delivery job; causes him to get so far behind in his college work that he’s in danger of flunking out; puts him at odds with his landlord; and convinces the woman he adores that the only place she’ll ever find love is in the arms of another man. Just as Willem Dafoe’s Christ considered ducking his destiny to embrace the pleasures of ordinary human life, Maguire’s Spider-Man does an accounting of all he’s missing. And, on bal­ ance, he concludes he’s giving up too much. That he has a right to enjoy his time on Earth, too. Parker gives life as a regular guy a try for a while, but his tim­

ing is bad. His soul-searching coincides with the appearance of a supervillain who wreaks more havoc than Parker’s conscience will permit him to ignore. Alfred Molina costars as Dr. O tto Octavius, a scientist whose attempt to build a fusion machine to produce cheap energy goes awry — for goofy, comic-book rea­ sons — and results instead in his mutation into Doc Ock, an evil tub of lard with giant metal tentacles. W ith the introduction of this character, Raimi’s film degener­ ates from a superhero Hamlet into a cheesy, routine bit of madscientist malarkey. The cheese appears to be Swiss, too, given the number of holes in this aspect o f the story: Who builds nuclear reactors in rented office space and tests them for the first time with a roomful of unprotected friends? W hat are the odds some­ body’s not going to get mutated into a supervillain? We’re told Octavius constructed the tentacles (which are implanted into his spine) because the fusion materials are dan­ gerous to handle. So why didn’t he just design the machine with robotic arms inside it? And what kind of a nut implants office equipment in his spine? So Spider-Man 2 is a silly comic-book movie with provoca­ tive psychological overtones. O r a provocative character study with silly comic-book overtones. Take your pick. Either way, it’s hardly the cinematic milestone the film is widely hailed to be. There’s some truly nice dialogue (Dunst caressing Maguire’s face and asking, “Isn’t it time someone saved your life?”). Danny Elfman’s score is a corker. O f course, he’s had practice. He’s been doing these since Tim Burton’s first Batman. The scenes in which Maguire swoops and swings between skyscrapers like a web-slinging Tarzan are technically impressive, for the most part, only occasionally'betraying their computer-generated reality. And, in the midst of much Molina-related nonsense, there are a few truly effective sequences. My favorite came after our hero almost kills himself slowing an out-of-control subway train to a stop. With hushed reverence, passengers lay him slashed and unmasked on the car’s floor and gaze at him with wonder. His posture and wounds give the tableau a deliberate Passion of the Parker feel and, when his eyes open, the connection between savior and saved is touchingly palpable. I wish the film had more of that sort of thing and less gener­ ic evil-genius stuff. If it had, Spider-Man 2 might not have mere­ ly perpetuated the genre. It might have transcended it. ®

SH O R T TAKES ON TH E R E E L W O RLD

n a year that has witnessed a bizarre reli­ gious phenom enon called The Passion o f the Christ, any movie concerning faith comes under closer scrutiny. Saved!, which opened last week at the Roxy in Burlington, is a black comedy about born-again teens. A lthough director/cowriter Brian Dannelly’s interesting debut feature goes after the potential hypocrisy o f those who profess moral superiority, it’s far too even-handed. At American Eagle Christian High School, the kids may be devout, but they’re also caught up in the kind of intense social milieu recendy examined in Mean Girls. Hilary Faye, played by pop

tendencies. In deciding to sacrifice her chastity, she reasons that the Lord will forgive a virginal heart. T he couple suc­ cumbs to sin. Nonetheless, C had’s parents find a male skin mag under his bed and ship him off to rehab for “de-gayification.” M ary soon discovers that she’s pregnant. She can’t confide in her widowed m oth­ er (Mary-Louise Parker), who has fallen for the principal, Pastor Skip (M artin Donovan). H e’s the kind o f clergyman who tries to impress his adolescent charges w ith pseudo-hip jargon such as “W ho’s down w ith G .O .D .?” and “Let’s get our C hrist o n .” Alienated from the school’s judgmental Bible-believers, Mary turns to two out­ casts. They happen to be the most com­ plex characters in the ensemble cast. Hilary Faye’s sardonic brother Roland (Macaulay Culkin), who has used a wheel­ chair since a childhood accident left him paraplegic, sees through his sister’s manip­ ulative tactics. Rebellious Cassandra (Eva Amurri, the real-life daughter o f Susan Sarandon) is the only Jew at American Eagle. Her purple car bears a bumper sticker that reads, “Jesus loves you,” right next to one that proclaims, “Everyone else thinks you’re an asshole.” Patrick (Patrick Fugit o f Almost Famous fame), who falls for Mary, is arfother misfit. In a class of^straight arrows he’s a longhaired skateboarder — and Pastor Skip’s son. T he lad is just back from visiting his m other in Latin America, where she lives full-time. All is not kosher, it seems, in the preacher’s

O ne o f her best friends is Mary (Jenna Malone), whose sweet nature becomes sidelined because she’s thrilled to be part o f the cool crowd. W hile Mary and her boyfriend Dean - v r* (Chad Faust) are swimming together, he confides his attraction to same-sex rela­ tionships.

house o f everlasting virtue. Some o f the dialogue is wonderfully edgy. W hen M ary is spotted emerging from Planned Parenthood before her secret has been revealed, Cassandra sug­ gests that there’s only one reason a Christian girl would go to such a clinic. In response, Roland’s first guess is that she was planting a pipe bomb. Unfortunately, that kind o f sharp writing is not consistent throughout the script, which often opts for a can’t-weall-get-along political correctness. It stands in sharp contrast to Alexander Payne’s Citizen Ruth, a 1996 satire o f the anti-abortion movement that also milks pro-choice forces for humor. And his Election, released in 1999, skewers high school politics w ith far more devil­ ish fun than can be found in Saved!. Dannelly apparently wants to lam­ poon fundamentalism w ithout really offending anyone, so he both ridicules and respects evangelical fervor. Jeezum Crow, make up your mind.

nated by escapist entertainm ent, people appear to be relishing non-fiction fare w ith an educational twist. To keep up w ith the Zeitgeist, the M ountain Top Film Festival is presenting Stephanie Black’s Life and Debt on July 13. T he 7 p.m. screening at the Eclipse Theater in Waitsfield will be followed by a question-and-answer session w ith one o f the film’s talking heads, Jamaican activist and philosopher Ras I-Vy. T he 86-m inute production illustrates how globalization can devastate T hird W orld countries. It focuses on the trou­ bled economy o f Jamaica, where long­ term indebtedness to such international lending organizations as the W orld Bank and the International M onetary Fund has contributed to the erosion o f local agriculture and industry. A uthor Jamaica Kincaid, a N orth Bennington resident who hails from Antigua, provides the voice-over narra­ tion. T he music comes courtesy o f Ziggy Marley & the M elody Makers, Bob Marley, Buju Ban ton, H arry Belafonte, Peter Tosh and others.

SMOKIN' Hot enough for you? The musical mercury rises when Latin trumpet innovator Ray Vega teams up with trom bonist Rick Davies' sextet Jazzismo. Vega, a South Bronx native, earned his chops playing with such Salsa and Latin jazz masters as Tito Puente, Ray Barretto and Hector LaVoe. New Yorker Davies earned his Ph.D. in jazz — he teaches at Plattsburgh — and has recorded on more than 100 albums. Vega's latest release is called Squeeze, Squeeze. Expect him and Jazzismo to squeeze out some steamy sounds and sizzling rhythms.

The b e st w ay to im ag in e erstw h ile B u rlin gton is to approach the city by water. It 's easy to wipe out the Wyndham and the other tall buildings erected in the last century. In your mind's eye, anyway. From a boat, Vermont's most livable city doesn't look that much different from the log-loving out­ post it once was. Economically challenged. And stunningly small. Queen City history was even easier to conjure last Saturday, when hundreds of people gathered at the waterfront to watch a boat... float. The Lois McClure didn't really make a splash when she slipped into the harbor by the Coast Guard station. That would have been entertainment. The replica canal schooner, based on an 1862 model, harks back to an era when people had all the time in the world to watch a vir­ gin vessel being lowered slowly into the drink. It was a different scene entirely out on the

Sure, some people came for the fireworks — a brilliant double bill. But it wasn't for pyrotechnics that the rag-tag flotilla crowded inside the breakwa­ ter. Like guests at a wedding, we formed an aquatic aisle for the beaming, flag-festooned Lois McClure and her escort, Miss Piggy, as she moved to her berth at Perkins Pier. When applause from the shore reached our ears, we made our own statement. Horns sounded

FRIENDS OF THE DEVIL "Orchestra in the Underworld" sounds diabolical. This summer's Vermont Symphony pro­ gram doesn't just conjure the darkness of the damned, though, but also of the movie theater. The musical menu includes the Symphonic Suite from The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring and Mussorgsky's "N ight on Bald Mountain," which appears in Disney's Fantasia. The most ominous-sounding selection, Orpheus in the Underworld, may actually be the lightest. In Offenbach's irreverent operetta, Orpheus is bored with his wife, Eurydice, who's sick of his endless fiddling. You don't have to know your clas­ sics to tune in, though — the piece is best known for giving the world the can-can. Sounds like a hell of a concert 5 ; 'v ’"

v

I'm to ta lly turned on by the smell o f my wife's body, especially when she's been outside or hasn't bathed for a while. Unfortunately, she's a clean freak who sometimes showers sever­ al times in a single day, so I don't get to experience her natural scent very often. I've begged her cut her shower schedule down to ju s t a few times a week, but she refuses. How can I convince her to love her odor as much as I do? Sniffing in Strafford Dear S niffing, Your olfactory ardor is Napoleonic. The French emperor reportedly once wrote to Josephine, " I 'll be home.in two weeks. Don't bathe u n til I get there." It's unlikely th a t you can expect a complete arom a-attitude turnaround from your Josephine. But the two of you may manage to s n iff out a compromise together. Rather than ask her to change her entire personal-hygiene regime, see i f sometime she'd be w illing to make love first, and clean up after. Sweeten the deal by offering to jo in her in the shower. Who knows? By playing to each otheris passions, you m ight find your­

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Thirty-three-year-old pop star Jennifer Lopez earned $29 million in 2003. Presumably she shares some of her wealth with her mom, Guadalupe. Cynical observers might therefore regard it as a sign of divine favoritism that Guadalupe recently won a jackpot of $2.4 million while playing a slot machine at an Atlantic City casino. I suspect you may be less hasty to jump to that conclusion, though, since many of you Virgos are currendy being visit­ ed (or soon will be) with an equally ridiculous amount of good luck. Don’t feel guilty about your blessings in the least, please, even if they seem way beyond your fair share. Lap them up.

(June 21-July 22): In accordance with the astrological omens, I’ve assembled a host of snappy one-liners for you to wield in the com­ ing week, Cancerian. Sooner or later, it will make sense for you to utter every one of them. 1. “It only seems kinky the first time.” 2. “Even if the voices in my head aren’t real, they still have some good ideas.” 3. “To make your prayers come true, you have to get off your knees.” 4. “I’m the good kind of bad.” 5. “It’s not really a party till something gets broken.” 6. “Shut up and dance.” (P.S.: I don’t anticipate there’ll be any messy consequences if you cultivate the attitude I’m suggest­ ing here. But in case there are, invoke this disclaimer: “I didn’t do it. You can’t prove it. Nobody saw me.”)

(Apr. 20-May 20): Your word of power this week is yua. It’s a term the Yupiit people of Alaska use for the spirit that inhabits all things, both animate and inanimate. A rock, for instance, has as much yua as a caribou, spruce tree or human being, and therefore merits the same measure of compassion. If a Yupiit goes out for a hike and spies a chunk of wood lying on a frozen river bank, she might pick it up and put it in a new position, allowing its previously hidden side to get fresh air and sun. In this way, she would bestow a blessing on the wood’s yua. Try living your life like this in the coming days, Taurus: as if absolutely everything is alive, has a soul and deserves your loving kindness. (Thanks to Earl Shorris, “The Last Word,” Harper’s, August 2000.)

A re Social difficulties an issue for yo ur ch ild ?

time to correct for the distortions that jerk wreaked in your psyche. Are you feeling tyrannized by a habitual response that was once quite useful but isn’t appropriate any more? This is a perfect moment to dissolve it.

(May 21-June 20): “Goodies” is your word of power this week, Gemini — though it could also be your word of weakness. To ensure that it’s more the former than the lat­ ter, meditate on the following three inquiries. 1. O f all the goodies you want, which are the two most impor­ tant ones? 2. Do your flirtations with second-tier goodies tend to undermine your pursuit of the first-tier ones? If so, are you willing to wean yourself from those flirtations? 3. Do you have any doubts about whether you truly deserve the very best goodies? If so, what can you do to render the doubts irrelevant?

of the most exuberant poets of the twentieth century was James Broughton. “I pray every night to wake up crazier,” he wrote. By that he meant he wanted to become increasingly receptive to unpredictable joy and pleasure. His knack for having a good time didn’t mean he dodged the hard times, though. “Suffering can’t be avoided,” he told interviewer Jack Foley. “The way to happiness is to go into the darkness of yourself. That’s the place the seed is nourished, takes its roots and grows up and becomes ulti­ mately the plant and the flower. You can only go upward by first going downward.” That’s the perfect prescrip­ tion for you in the coming days, Aries. (For more Broughton and Foley, see www.alsopreview.com/foley/jfbroughto n.html.)

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): For years, Salt Lake City was undisputed Jell-O champion of the world, with the highest per capita consumption. But in 1999, Des Moines, Iowa, catapulted into the lead. In response, chef Scott Blackerby staged a “Take Back the JellO Title” Recipe Contest at his restau­ rant in Salt Lake, and thousands of Utahans signed petitions that helped make Jell-O the official snack of the state. Soon the city had retaken the top spot, where it remains to this day. I hope this story serves to motivate and inspire you in the coming days, Libra. It’s time for you to reclaim a lost title or crown that you once possessed and that really should belong to you again.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): Have you ever been burned by bad religion? This is the week you could start getting rid of the scorch mafks. Have you ever been abused by an authority figure who made you feel helpless? This is the

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): On your bad days, Scorpio, you’re like a swamp that serves as a weird oasis in the midst of frozen tundra. On your good days, the physical feature you correspond to most is an underground river winding in a serpentine course beneath green, fertile hills. But in the coming weeks you’ll be like a place you’ve rarely resembled before: an unspoiled tropical beach where the warm wild ocean meets the foot of a towering mountain.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Shopping for a new mis­ sion, Sagittarius? Or perhaps a new branch of your old familiar mission? You should be. This is one of those pivotal moments when heaven comes all the way down to earth; when invisi­ ble allies fr»m the other side of the veil make an appearance; when age-old secrets briefly show what they’re really made of. To aid your quest to glimpse your best possible future, here’s advice that the sorcerer Don Juan gave to his student, Carlos Castaneda: “Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think neces­ sary. Then ask yourself, and yourself alone, one question. ‘Does this path have a heart?’ If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t, it is of no use.”

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): In ancient Greece, Apollo was a great sun god. Ruler of music and healing, he had the power to vanquish darkness from the human soul and transform chaos into energy. Pilgrims traveled from afar to seek oracles at his main temple in Delphi. Inscribed above the entrance of the temple was the maxim “Know thyself.” No other

words of wisdom are more important for you to heed in the next six weeks, Capricorn. Getting to know yourself better will be the best way to rouse your own inner Apollo, thereby allow­ ing you to tap into the fertility of your unconscious chaos and harness the beauty of your soul’s darkness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I didn’t feel your passion in my secret garden,” a celebrity judge told an aspiring diva after her less-than-perfect singing performance on “The WB’s Superstar USA,” an “American Idol” parody. I’m afraid I’m going to have to borrow his words to describe your recent efforts, Aquarius. All of us occa­ sionally fail to live up fully to our potential, and the recent past has been your time of missing the mark. Now please don’t waste your energy getting mad at me for delivering this knock. Instead, channel that emotion into making sure you don’t keep missing the mark. Conjure up the breakout passion that we who love you will feel in our secret gardens.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Here’s one of the few universal truths I know: Everyone has a piece of the truth, even those you disagree with. According to my reading of the astro­ logical omens, though, you are now in possession of a giant piece of the truth — bigger than what you usually have and bigger than everyone else’s piece. That’s exacdy why you should proceed cautiously. Your deep understanding and authoritative knowledge might tempt you to dismiss the tiny slivers of truth that other people are holding, and that would be a mistake.

M ythic P ro p o rtio n s

T

here are those who mock the new Phaeton luxury sedan for being a child o f Volkswagen von Wolfsburg. “Seventy-five thousand dollars for a Volkswagen!” an auto industry executive cackled at me recently. “I thought longer about breakfast this morning than those guys must have thought about how they were going to sell a $75,000 Volkswagen.” After a week w ith the car, I have banished any pre­ conceived notions. This stunning new luxury sedan is a Volkswagen in name only; by every other standard, it is in a class o f its own. It is a Phaeton. For potential buyers there is no alternative to a confrontation w ith the truth. True, Phaeton exhibits the same size, elegance and performance o f its sever­ est rivals, the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, BM W 740i and Audi A8 L (with which it shares substantial engineer­ ing features). It is a different car entirely, however. Construction, upholstery, even cabinetry are impeccable. O ne o f the best telematics systems yet designed graces the dashboard w ith its seven-in. color monitor. Using it, one manages climate control, navi­ gation, music and “personal profiles” that preserve seating and other preferences. And yet, Phaeton’s electronics strategy betrays con­ troversial choices: Although the car incorporates General M otor’s O nStar emergency navigation and rescue system, there is no provision for factory satel­ lite radio. A six-CD changer hides inaccessibly in the glove box; there is no in-dash C D player for more spontaneous music selections. Incorporating a tele­ phone means resorting to dealer-installation and the potential complications that entails. Just the same, the interior is a cocoon of comfort. The driver’s seat adjusts 18 ways. “Climatronic” HVAC distributes individualized control of heating and cooling to four different zones, so that front- and backseat passengers can manage their own comfort. Woods like eucalyptus and walnut complement Italian leather upholstery and subtle, brushed metal accents. Eight airbags surround occupants with front, side and head protection. Automatic tire pressure indicators continuously m onitor inflation levels.

An innovative 6.0-liter W 12 engine is available in two versions that start at $83,000 and $98,000, respectively. I, on the other hand, drove a 4.2-liter V8 that Phaeton shares w ith its Audi cousin. For a car that weighs 5200 lbs., its 335 horsepower is more than enough to accomplish brisk launches and very high-speed cruising. Variable valve tim ing spreads torque throughout a broad powerband, and V W ’s “4M atic” all-wheel-drive system distributes traction automatically to every wheel. T he six-speed autom atic transmission is a master­ piece. It is seamlessly smooth, particularly on high­ way stretches, where it matches gearing to power w ithout a driver even being aware— unless he or she happens to note the gear indicator in the instrum ent panel. In town, I preferred to override the autom atic w ith a bit o f manual shifting, which executes almost as crisply as a true clutch-and-shifter transmission. Suspension feel is an interesting com bination of the stately and the spry. A console controller selects between four different driving modes, from plush com fort to racecar-like sportiness. Self-leveling air sus­ pension and electronic dam ping control do the rest by compensating for both speed and road surface condi­ tions at all times. Phaeton’s suspension mode directly influences one’s driving mood. At the “C om fort” set-

ting, one feels and acts posh; upon graduating to “Sport 2,” all one seems to notice are the invigorating growl of Phaeton’s exhaust note and the sedan’s knifeedge reactions in corners. O nce having experienced Phaeton’s feats o f luxury and performance, one will be changed by the experi­ ence. T hat, alas, is the tragedy for a mere mortal the likes o f me. M ythic Phaeton is doom ed to perish for rashly supposing he m ight master the chariot o f the sun. I am luckier than that. I am sentenced instead to pine, unrequited, for another stint o f driving a car that is altogether too easy to adore, too difficult to afford. ®
