ew rules taking effect July 15 will make it harder for homeless Vermonters to stay in motels when shelters are full — a practice that cost taxpayers $4 million last fiscal year. As Kathryn Flagg reported on Off Message, the homeless will now be evaluated on a point scale to determine motel eligibility. To get a room when shelters are full, an individual must earn at least six points. Being a disabled veteran, a person 65 or older, or a Reach Up recipient is worth one point each. Pregnant women get two points if they’re third trimester, and anyone recently released from the hospital with ongoing medical needs also gets two. Sounds sensible in theory, but advocates for the homeless are warning that very few people will reach six points on the new scale. point State officials estimate Disabled that up to half of people Veteran approved for motel stays will no longer qualify. “You just have to read this and start doing the math,” says Rita Markley, who directs the Committee on Temporary Shelter in Burlington. Agency of Human Services general counsel Ken Schatz assures, “We will protect the most points vulnerable Vermonters.” Read more on 7d.blogs.com/ Person discharged from hospital offmessage. in the past 30 days who has

JUDGE NOT

In a world filled with misery, a young man and an older woman find love and happiness together [Poli Psy: “Spanish Inquisition,” June 19]. Their ages and places in society are different. We have a Puritan heritage, and the law says their consensual relationship is a felony. Maybe it’s time to change the law. As Pascal wrote: “The heart has reasons that reason knows not.” Jack Daggitt

BURLINGTON

HACKIE HYPOCRISY

In his [June 12] Hackie column, Jernigan gives the oil-industry flack a good argument about why we should be giving up our fossil-fuel addiction. Meanwhile, the industry lobbies for the status quo while greenwashing us with their support for renewables. Until there is a seismic shift in our transportation and energy systems, we are all (taxi drivers included) continuing to “eat” this deadline diet every time we fill up at the pump. Michael Levine

MISSION NECESSITY?

As the F-35 discussions come to a climax, I am writing to express my opposition to basing this aircraft in Burlington [“Last 7,” June 26 and other F-35 coverage].

TIM NEWCOMB

Proponents of the aircraft argue it is necessary for our economy. Our political leaders express their admiration for the Air National Guard. I understand the economic argument. I don’t understand politicians advocating for the aircraft as a reward for the Air Guard’s excellent performance. In the military, performance is acknowledged with unit citations and individual medals. Opponents of the F-35 focus on noise, environmental factors and real estate values. The latter is a very serious matter that affects the financial stability of many families. Our political leaders are apparently deaf to this concern. One subject conspicuously absent from the discussions is mission necessity. With the Air Force considering several locations for the F-35, what makes Burlington a primary prospect? What mission will the F-35 perform that requires it to be based in Burlington? Burlington International Airport is an ideal location for accepting many types of military aircraft. We regularly see KC-130 aircraft performing “touch and goes” at Burlington. Over the past three years I have contacted the Air Force and our Congressional delegation recommending the Vermont Air National Guard be assigned a new mission, one that would meet the needs of the service, protect jobs, bolster the economy and bring aircraft that are compatible with the Burlington area. This is the perfect time to consider changing

mAN, oh mAN!

A letter to the editor last week from Evzen Holas [Feedback, “Burlington or Topeka?” June 26] generated its own flurry of feedback. Holas made a case for either legalizing or ignoring prostitution based on the assumption that “Even a fairly sane man can become dangerous if he does not find an outlet for his sexual tensions.” Oh, Evzen. You have missed the point. This story was more about human trafficking than prostitution, which is still illegal. How can you make so many misogynistic comments when you “have two little girls?” Your letter made me nauseous. Just wait until your daughters are teenagers — maybe even by age 8 or 10. I have a feeling you will be changing your tune. Allison Dowling burlingTOn

This man’s attitude toward prostitution and the exploitation of women is simply disgusting. Don’t men have brains in their heads to help them moderate the influence of their raging hormones? Amanda conley burlingTOn

Evzen Holas has a pretty low opinion of his fellow men. Apparently men whose sexual tensions have no (female) outlet are all potentially dangerous rapists. (What happened to masturbation as an “outlet”?) Just think: All those “pretty, half-naked young women strutting the streets and young men full of hormones.” Those young men have so little self-control that they will fall upon unprotected, virtuous women like so many ravenous wolves if an “outlet” is not available. He also thinks prostitution is better than working for $7 an hour at the supermarket. Maybe so, if the prostitute is not an exploited sex worker who speaks little English and who spends upwards of 13 hours a day as a virtual captive — and how much per hour does she get? If it’s as much as $7, I am the Queen of Romania. What Ken Picard reported is slavery for sexual purposes — that’s all. Prostitution is not a safety valve that exists to protect “nice” women. An “illegal blow job” is not the sole, desirable alternative to murder and rape. And if I were a man, I’d be insulted that Mr. Holas seems to think so.

Thanks for Kathryn Flagg’s article highlighting the stormwater woes of Burlington residents [“As Storms Intensify, Burlington Struggles to Manage the Flow,” June 12]. Nothing gets us paying attention to water quite like weeks of rainfall. The article draws attention to aging Burlington stormwater infrastructure and the properties flooding on Church Street and beyond as a result. Just as important, but not mentioned in the article, is the effect that all that runoff has on our natural waterways. The streams, rivers and lakes that ultimately accept all that rainfall are stressed with these sudden bursts of water that are loaded with pollutants. The fact is, no matter the extent of any conventional infrastructural improvements to the conveyance system (pipes)

The Cartoon Issue Seven Days writers get the picture

SEVENDAYSVT.COM

W

ay last January we started thinking about doing an all-cartoon issue. How cool that would be, we imagined — having artists not just illustrate but tell our stories, one panel at a time. I contacted James Sturm, cofounder of the Center for Cartoon Studies in White River Junction, and he put out a call to artists on the school’s bulletin board. The response was immediate and enthusiastic. Students and recent graduates were eager for the opportunity to participate. A few even had previous experience with comics journalism. So a handful of us writers at Seven Days formed a cartoonissue committee to brainstorm. We determined the issue date, July 3, thinking that the Fourth of July holiday typically makes for a slow news week — one in which readers might prefer shooting off fireworks to, well, reading. And then … we were kind of stumped. We wondered, what kinds of stories lend themselves to being “cartoonized”? How would each writer actually work with a cartoonist? Perhaps most challenging was trying to plan that far in advance. This is a newspaper; we’re used to last-minute assignments primarily based on current events. Give us a short leash, an imminent deadline, and we’ll turn it around. Ask writers to come up with stories for seven months hence and … crickets. I mentioned this dilemma to the cartoonists, who had begun to inquire what was happening. We’ve only settled on a couple of features, I told them. We’re not sure what stories will make good cartoons. That’s when more than one of them assured me that pretty much anything can be a cartoon. A couple of them proposed their own story ideas (the Mean Mountain Boys roller-derby team from Eleri Mai Harris, and the “chickenfarmer rock” mystery for WTF from Carl Antonowicz). Emboldened — and being a little closer to a real deadline — we finally pulled the issue together. We writers came to grips with creating very streamlined scripts, then putting them in the hands of total strangers. In this issue you’ll also find cartoonized versions of everything from Paul Heintz’s political column, Fair Game, to news stories, features and even a CD review. We still don’t quite accept that a picture is worth a thousand words (or why bother writing?), but we have been delighted to work with this very talented batch of cartoonists, and we’re happy with the final results. In this holiday week, we give you more pictures, fewer words. And, hey, we just might do it again next year! Meanwhile, hope you enjoy this issue — and this introduction to the cartoonists.

tuck in stuffy committee rooms for four months of the year, state legislators find plenty of ways to cope: knitting, napping, clumsily surfing the web on stateissued iPads. Sen. Mark MacDonald (D-Orange) pens cartoons. MacDonald draws inspiration from legislative debates, poking fun at his political opponents and illustrating the absurdity of his august surroundings. “He’s very good at putting things in perspective and seeing the lighter side — drilling right down to what is really going on here,” says Sen. Ann Cummings (D-Washington), who served with MacDonald on the Senate Finance Committee. “Sometimes he’s not always politically correct and needs someone to say, ‘Are you sure?’”

I N F O @ S W E E T L A D YJ A N E . B I Z

MacDonald served in Vietnam, captained a shrimp boat in the Gulf of Mexico and raised beef cattle in Williamstown. But he traces his cartooning roots to the three decades he spent teaching eighth-grade social studies. There, he says, he learned how to explain seemingly complex concepts through visual representation. When he speaks, MacDonald is often incomprehensible — it’s as if his brain is working too fast to follow. But cartooning enables him to express himself more coherently, says Cummings. “I think it helps him put his thoughts together when we’re working through a subject to be able to sit down and draw it out,” she says. Here are a few samples of MacDonald’s work from the 2013 legislative session.

In lobbying parlance, there are the “white hats” and the “black hats” — those who advocate for the people and those who lobby for corporations. But as MacDonald notes, “Many Montpelier lobbying firms advertise themselves as ‘consultants on legislative issues.’” He posted this cartoon right above a chair in the Senate Finance Committee one day and waited to see who would sit under it. As corporate lobbyists flooded the room to plead their case on tax policy, it was the last seat filled.

Senator Mark MacDonald « p.17

What happens after years of “sharpening the pencil” during the state budgeting process? No more pencils.

MacDonald saw a connection between U.S. drone policy and this year’s debate about end-of-life legislation. Skeptical senators wanted to debate every last detail of the “death with dignity” bill, while MacDonald says most people don’t even want to think about America’s drone-strike policy.

“What’s less of a terrorist activity?” MacDonald asks. “Someone who walks into a CIA meeting with a [suicidebombing] vest or someone who blows up a house with a drone? Isn’t it the same thing?”

When it comes to state budgeting, MacDonald sees a two-tiered system. State agencies and nonprofits are “the unwashed masses” that must “beg for money” from the Senate Appropriations Committee, while “the wellheeled corporate leaders” simply seek tax breaks from the Senate Finance Committee. “It’s gradually becoming the way wealthy people do business,” he says.

“Folks who are in the ‘current use’ program come in and object to making standards stricter on clear-cutting or manure-spreading or stream-bank protection. And they say, ‘Well, we’re the stewards of the land. We take pride in being stewards of the land,’” MacDonald explains. “But when they come in, they’re always objecting to something that would provide more stewardship.” m

Feedback « p.7 part because everybody uphill was counting on the storm pipes to capture all their runoff, too. Practices like green roofs, cisterns, rain gardens and pervious pavement can reduce the volume that ends up in the storm system — significantly, in some cases. Many of the buildings on Church Street have sizable roofs — 10,000 square feet, in some cases. A green roof that size could reduce 100 percent of the runoff in a 1-inch rain event (over 5000 gallons). These steps to “own your water” work best when a majority participate. We are all upstream, and downstream, of someone. Rebecca Tharp Williston

[Re ongoing F-35 coverage, including “Last 7,” June 26]: A common assertion among F-35 proponents is that noise from military aircraft is perceived as “the sound of freedom.” This seems odd. Freedom is complex.

But for simplicity, let’s examine a most American summary — that of FDR’s “four freedoms,” a proposal for four fundamental freedoms everyone should enjoy: freedom of speech, freedom of worship, freedom from want and freedom from fear. What do our military aircraft, noise aside, have to do with providing them? Do these planes provide freedom of speech? No, the First Amendment gives us that. Freedom of worship? Again, no. Again, the Constitution. Freedom from want? Here, certainly not, and rather the opposite, as the enormous sums to develop, build and support them drain the treasury for domestic needs. Ah, fear. Surely they make us less afraid of “the enemy” — whoever that might be. But what enemy has the air or missile capability to attack us? None on the horizon. And our overseas attacks to preempt any capability seem to be creating more, not fewer, enemies, enemies whose tools are not targets of such aircraft. Our fear, if anything, should be increased. To me, freedom comes not from our warplanes but from collaboration with nature and humans trying to be healed. Tell it to the Russians, the Iranians, the Chinese, Al-Qaeda, the Taliban? They, too, don’t hear the roar in the air as the sound of freedom. Nor the buzzing.

I would like to respond to the letter by Cynthea Wight Hausman [Feedback, “Modern-Day Slavery,” June 12] about Ken Picard’s article “Unhappy Endings” [June 5]. As suggested by Ms. Hausman, “another review of criteria” for the licensure of massage would not change a thing. As stated in her letter, “regulation would mean that every therapist would be at least 18, a high school graduate or equivalent, and a graduate of an approved massage school.” These were the only proposed statutes from the organized professional massage associations that sought licensure in the autumn of 2010. Actually, the conclusion by the secretary of state’s office was that “where someone posing as a massage therapist violates criminal laws, those laws effectively protect the public.” If they are not, then law enforcement is not doing its job. Do not mistake licensing of professional massage as the answer for dissuading illegal sex services. Those that want therapeutic or healthful relaxation massage will seek the services of qualified practitioners. Those that want sex will seek it out, legal or not. Issues of illegal sex, control, abuse and exploitation have nothing to do with legitimate massage. From where I sit, the people being harmed in this situation are likely not U.S. citizens, and the licensure of massage will not take care of these women.

What’s in a Name? The Origins of “Burlington” B Y K E VI N J . K ELLEY

N

ames tell more about those who give them than about those who get them. That’s as true for places as for people. So who or what is behind the names that Burlington-area residents encounter nearly every day? Why was a town, a street, an institution or a natural feature given a particular label? Seven Days decided to find out. We begin a weekly, summer-long series on the name game with the most obvious one: Burlington. As it happens, historians disagree on how Vermont’s largest city got its name. Evidence has been submitted for two competing theories, according to Sylvia Bugbee, a Vermont history reference specialist at the University of Vermont’s Bailey/Howe Library, but, she says, “there’s no smoking gun.” Bugbee personally ascribes to the view that Burlington’s name derives from the Burling family of New York City. She favors this choice mainly because the alternative — that the city is named for the British earldom of Burlington — “doesn’t make sense.” Burlington, Vt., came into being in 1763 through a grant of land by Benning Wentworth, the governor of the royal province of New Hampshire. Those supporting the aristocratic origin note that the names Wentworth conferred on some other towns in Vermont were

based on the nobility titles of families with whom he was politically allied — for example, the duke of Dorset and the marquis of Halifax. Bugbee points out, however, that Richard Boyle, the specific earl of Burlington likely to have inspired the naming, died a decade before Wentworth made the land grant. “That’s too long a time for him to have been the source,” she argues. New York’s 18th-century Burlings, on the other hand, had a documented connection to lands in several towns in what became Vermont. In addition, the family was “politically prominent and wealthy — a combination that always appealed to Wentworth,” observes Vermont Place Names, a 1977 book by the late Esther Munroe Smith. Edward Burling (1713-1789), a Quaker real estate mogul who apparently also dabbled in the slave trade, was among those granted land by Wentworth in an area north of the Winooski River that became known as Colchester. “From this fact,” states the section on Burlington in the Vermont Historical Gazetteer (published in 1867), “it is supposed by many that the name was intended for Colchester … and that by some clerical error the name of Burlington was given to this town instead of that.”

What’s in a Name? « P.23 Whoa! B-town’s name is the product of a “clerical error?” How deflating is that? But how inflating for local selfesteem if the city were, in fact, named in honor of an earl? And not just any earl, but Third Earl of Burlington Richard Boyle (1694-1753), who worked in London as an architect and who is described in the Encyclopedia Britannica as “a patron of the arts, interested in the visual arts, music and literature.” In other words, a proto-Friend of the Flynn! Smith notes in Vermont Place Names the feel-good association with the Third Earl of Burlington. “Burlingtonians point with pride to the noble ancestry of their community’s name,” she wrote 36 years ago. Such a link would also be consistent with Burlington’s royalist nickname: the Queen City — one it shares with several other towns in North America. There’s just one explanation for that moniker — or at least there’s only one readily found via Google. It’s laid out

in a blog called “Long Live the Queen City!” created in 2010 by someone identified only as Britta. She is described in an initial posting as “a recent graduate of the University of Vermont’s historic preservation master’s program and a Burlington resident for a number of years.” Britta declares that Albert Catlin, the city’s first mayor, crowned Burlington with the Queen City title. The blogger quotes Catlin’s hubristic mayoral address of 1866, the year after Burlington was incorporated as a city: “We represent a young city, which may in time be known and distinguished as the Queen City of New England. It has just been launched upon a career that I trust will prove prosperous and happy. Its location for natural beauty is not equaled in any part of our country — and for natural and acquired advantages in a business point of view, for manufactures and a general business-character, few places are its equal, and none surpass it.”

the straight dope bY cecil adams

lad you asked this question, Bruce, because it gave the Straight Dope research department a chance to redeem itself after the recent dismal showing involving deaths due to falling pianos (May 10). I report with satisfaction that Una and Fierra came up with more than 100 animal-eats-dynamite stories, the most pertinent of which are summarized below. Although their methods as usual remain cloaked in mystery, let’s say I don’t expect any further beefs from reader Mullins. Getting back to “Andy Griffith.” The episode titled “The Loaded Goat” first aired on January 28, 1963. The goat didn’t explode, most likely because that would have been too much for television in 1963, and might not fly now other than on South Park. But it’s also true the chances of a goat or other animal full of dynamite detonating are low. Dynamite is a mix of nitroglycerine plus an absorbent filler such as sawdust or diatomaceous earth, which its inventor Alfred Nobel found resulted in an explosive that was safer to handle than pure nitro. Dynamite normally won’t blow up without a primer explosive such as a blasting cap,

which is supposed to be inserted just before use. However, things can still go seriously wrong. While neither sawdust nor diatomaceous earth is especially dangerous to eat, nitroglycerine can be. In small doses it’s a vasodilator commonly used to treat angina, but greater amounts interfere with cardiovascular function, leading to severe low blood pressure, cyanosis (you turn blue) and death. The lethal dose varies greatly, but given the prodigious and indiscriminate appetites for which goats are famous, theoretically one could eat enough dynamite to get plenty sick and maybe die. But let’s get serious. Sick goats aren’t the real concern here. Could an animal full of dynamite explode? Time for a dive into the databases: • The earliest account we could find of a dynamiteeating goat was an 1899 story from a Boston newspaper relating a New Mexico mining-camp yarn in which a voracious specimen allegedly ate 27 sticks. The locals thereafter kept a respectful distance until one night a rambunctious cowboy taking potshots at random objects rode off in the goat’s direction. Ten minutes later there was a “mysterious explosion; and neither the goat nor the cowboy were ever seen in New Mexico afterwards.” Right. • More believable is a 1900 Philadelphia Inquirer item about a goat belonging to a Mrs. McGlory in the coal town of Hazleton, Pa. The

goat was chewing on a stick of dynamite when the “cartridge” (one assumes a ready-to-blow assembly including blasting cap) went off, reducing the animal to its constituent parts. A primer used in the old days was mercury fulminate, which is sensitive to friction, so despite its minimal length (two sentences) this story could be legit. • A 1902 report from Eden, Wis., says Patrick Mulligan’s pet goat ate several sticks of dynamite, fell asleep in front of the fireplace in the Mulligan home, and soon detonated, taking the house with it. The family wasn’t there, there’s no indication witnesses saw any of this, and unless the animal was actually on fire, no way could a goat’s gut get warm enough to set off an explosive. Verdict: BS. Goats aren’t the only critters said to favor high explosives for lunch: • In 1900 a cow named Venus bit down on a stick of dynamite with a percussion cap attached and was promptly blown to pieces. The story provides copious detail and unlike many similar reports doesn’t claim to describe events that occurred a thousand miles away from the newspaper carrying it — Venus was at a quarry near East St. Louis, and the article appeared in the St. Louis Republic. So yeah, coulda happened. • Then there’s this: In 1908 two steers reportedly ate

slug signorino

Dear cecil, I was watching an “Andy Griffith” rerun the other day about a goat that ate dynamite, making everyone afraid he was going to blow up if bumped. could/would a goat eat dynamite? If so, would it explode? If not, would it poison him?

some dynamite a farmer was using to blast stumps. That evening the farmer threw a stone — a stone, mind you — that struck one of the steers, supposedly detonating the explosive in its stomach and blowing it to bits. The blast jarred the other steer, which blew up too. The cattle were in Indiana; the newspaper reporting their fate was in san Jose, Cali. My question isn’t what the steers were eating in Indiana, but what the reporter was smoking in San Jose. We found a few more such accounts, all equally implausible. More common are tales of

animals feasting on dynamite (apparently it tastes sweet) without result other than freaking out the locals, although sometimes the eaters got sick. Conclusion: Detonating animals owe more to fancy than fact, as exemplified in a 1917 ditty by Bert Lee and R.P. Weston titled “Paddy McGinty’s Goat,” about a goat that ate dynamite with predictable results: “So if you go to heaven you can bet a dollar note / That angel with the whiskers is Paddy McGinty’s goat.”

hen Jack and Anne Lazor arrived in Westfield in the mid-1970s, growing corn was a fading practice. So was raising wheat, barley and other grains — the pursuits had become agricultural relics as Vermont’s landscape shifted from crop cultivation to sheep grazing to dairy. Jack Lazor likely resembled any of the hundreds of back-to-the-landers who descended on Vermont during that period. When the idealistic 26-year-old Tufts University grad and his wife bought 60 acres in the Northeast Kingdom, they were towing “a truckload of old farm antiques” and were determined to raise

grain on their rocky hilltop. During the next four decades, the couple’s dairy products — rich, tangy yogurt, buttermilk, cream and kefir — have become wildly popular throughout New England. But grain remains Lazor’s passion, which led him to an unlikely place: an upstairs room in his house, where Lazor spent two years writing a book about his decades-long grain-growing adventures. Vermont’s Chelsea Green

Publishing will release The Organic Grain Grower: Small-Scale, Holistic Grain Production for the Home and Market Producer on August 19. Before he sat down to write, “I really didn’t know how to use a computer,” admits Lazor, now 62. An editor at Chelsea Green, Makenna Goodman, encouraged him to pursue the project after they met at a Northeast Organic Farming Association conference several years ago. Once he began, though, “It just started flowing,” says the new author,

almost every bottle had been sold. “We only made eight cases of it,” says mImI ButtEnHEIm, Vermont Spirits’ general manager, and it could be a while before the product appears again. Meanwhile, the growing distillery released a trio of new spirits: a gin, a white whiskey and a barrel-aged bourbon, all of which rely on Vermont flavors to varying degrees. For the 85-proof Coppers American Style Gin, distillers Harry gorman and JoE BuswEll source juniper berries harvested in the Northeast Kingdom for a warming spirit that also layers in hints of coriander, angelica, cassia, orange peel and cardamom. For the crystal-clear Black Snake Whiskey, the crew distills Vermont corn in a new copper still. And for the upcoming No. 14 Maple Bourbon Whiskey, Vermont maple sap is blended with bourbon that’s been aged for five years.

The staff expanded the menu, too, pulling in a few dishes from the eatery’s airport location — panini, a burger, Vermont Salumi sausage sandwich — as well as a handful of new crêpes and dishes, such as a Toasted Greek Salad with pumpkin seeds and paprika-crêpe chips, a shareable plate of roasted beets with chèvre, and a dip made with local cheeses and chicken. While the beer still flows, bartender sam Barracos has rolled out a cocktail menu with drinks such as the Herbalist, a combo of Russian Standard vodka, mango iced tea, muddled blackberries and basil.

Just then, two young women knock on the screen door. One of them, Amanda Gervais of North Hero’s Savage Gardens, is here to pick up a cow, but she also bears an enormous tray of fresh-picked strawberries. Lazor pops one into his mouth with relish. “Delicious!” he declares. Lazor loves that young farmers come to him for tips, seeds, animals and guidance. “One of the most important things is sharing what I know with people who are keen,” he says. “I get so much pleasure out of it.” Heather Darby, an associate professor of agronomy with University of Vermont Extension, has marveled at Lazor’s generosity of spirit since meeting him 10 years ago. “He answers every single phone call that comes to him, and he gives everyone his cellphone number. He never has a moment of privacy,” she says. “Jack’s one of those people that has so much information in his mind. He’s a scholar and a historian and a farmer, and I really don’t know anyone else who has the breadth of information that Jack has. When his book comes out, I don’t know of any other resource like it.” Writing about barley in The Organic Grain Grower, Lazor points out how a summer thunderstorm might flatten a field of the fragile plant. Farmers need to be prepared for such inevitable moments of loss. “This is part of the big gamble we call farming,” Lazor writes. “Beauty can disappear in an instant.”

problems. Once sales passed the $1 million mark, Lazor’s farm was subject to more regulations, taxes and scrutiny, and attracted more frequent visits from officials and regulators. “It doesn’t seem right at this point that we should be working so hard,” he says with a sigh as he meanders through the sanitized rooms where yogurt is pasteurized and kefir is bottled, then down to the dusty bottom floor where the cows are milked. Pausing by the monstrous wood-fired boiler that fuels the barn, Lazor nonchalantly chucks in a few logs. Then he crosses a muddy cow path to lead his visitor past a field of shoulder-high comfrey and into the gray clapboard house that he and Anne built when they first arrived here. Inside, the kitchen table is crowded with papers, a bottle of hot sauce and an empty kefir container holding lilacs. Anne is out tending the vegetable garden, but Lazor mentions her frequently. In the acknowledgments section of his book, he thanks his wife, as well as daughter, son-in-law and crew, for covering for him on the farm while he was writing. Lazor says he wanted to record his accumulated knowledge for many reasons, including that he’s had prostate cancer for three years and has eschewed modern medicine as he fights the disease. “I can feel my health slipping a little. My vitality is dimming,” he says simply. Yet Lazor doesn’t look like a man who’s fading; under his iconic Santa Claus beard, he has a tanned, warm, almost youthful face, and eyes that convey intent curiosity. “Ever had chocolate colostrum pudding?” he asks, apropos of nothing, jumping up to fill two bowls. The cooling, gelatin-like, barely sweet pudding is teeming with antibodies from the first post-partum squirts of a lactating cow.

The Latin roots of dementia mean “without mind.” Many suffering from the condition experience cognitive impairment related to memory, attention span, language skills and problem solving. Putney’s awardwinning Sandglass Theater — an internationally recognized company that combines puppets with music, actors and visual imagery — explores this tumultuous emotional territory in D-Generation: An Exaltation of Larks. Based on stories written collaboratively by people with late-stage dementia, this captivating production, set to an original score, portrays residents and staff at a caregiving facility.

The remaining members, top musicians from the Afro-Amerindian communities of Belize, Guatemala and Honduras, are still committed to sharing their heritage with audiences worldwide. They reunited with producer Ivan Duran for the recently released Ayó. The resulting songs channel a sound dating back to 17thcentury slave ships, with modern influences.

Life Lessons “The truth is, once you learn how to die, you learn how to live,” writes Mitch Albom in his bestselling 1997 memoir, Tuesdays With Morrie. The book chronicles the career-driven sports columnist’s meditative weekly chats with his former sociology professor, Morrie Schwartz — who is dying of Lou Gehrig’s disease. As the latter imparts tidbits of wisdom, the two form a new relationship nearly 20 years after first meeting. A stage adaptation of the story comes to St. Michael’s Playhouse under the direction of Kenneth Kimmins, and stars accomplished actors Christian Kohn and Bernie Passeltiner as student and teacher, respectively.

Since first meeting and playing together in the mid-1970s, the Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriters have frequently crossed musical paths. The two joined forces for their 2013 collaborative album Old Yellow Moon, of which the Boston Globe says, “their voices mesh seamlessly ... his a rangy croon, hers as ethereal as smoke rings.” Armed with a pair of acoustic guitars and an undeniable chemistry, the duo takes the stage with covers and originals reflective of a vast, overlapping repertoire.

Play and protect Lake Champlain! Runoff is a classic arcade game with a twist. The action is simple — rain falls in the city. You catch it in your rain barrel to keep the rain from becoming stormwater runoff. Back in the day, arcade games cost a quarter to play. Runoff is free, but for each of the first 1000 games played, Seven Days and Kids VT will donate a quarter to the Let It Rain stormwater program. Let It Rain provides financial incentives for property owners in Vermont’s Lake Champlain Basin who install rain barrels and implement other stormwaterreduction strategies.

Let’s work together to keep the water clean! Play Runoff as many times as you can and tell your friends to play, too. Download the “Runoff” app to your Apple device; play it in a mobile or web browser at playrunoff.com; or play the arcade version at ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center.

JUST ANNOUNCED

SEVEN DAYS

In last week’s column, I opined that the recent trend of artists branding fundraising gigs as “album benefit” shows was an unseemly marketing tactic and needed to stop. I suggested that the term “benefit” implies charity, and should be reserved for those who genuinely require outside financial assistance to overcome whatever misfortune had befallen them, and that while trying to make a living playing music is undoubtedly an uphill battle, simply being a cash-poor artist didn’t qualify. Care to guess how that went over? Unsurprisingly, that bit generated a decent amount of reader feedback, much of it of the “You suck, dan BolleS” variety. The arguments for selfbenefitting tended to be pretty similar and predictable — decent-paying gigs are increasingly rare, recording costs are huge, ya gotta do what ya gotta do, “You suck, Dan Bolles,” etc. Of all the arguments made in favor of bands throwing self-benefit shows,

“With Arms Wide Open.” On the plus side, local turntablists dJ Haitian and craig MitcHell will kick things off with a good old-fashioned DJ mix battle, which should be pretty epic. And while freedom may not be free, this show is. (As an aside, here is my annual plug for the Burlington concert Band, the community orchestra that plays Battery Park every Sunday in the summer — and have for about 150 years, by the way. If you’ve never been, it’s about as wholesome a good time as one can have. No, the band isn’t likely to wow you with symphonic magic, but they seem to get better every year. And there is just something inherently pleasant about relaxing on the grass with the smell of Beansie’s lingering in the warm evening air while taking in a quality John Williams medley.) Moving on, Speaking Volumes on Pine Street is once again hosting its annual July 3rd party. Now in its seventh year, the bash has become a yearly staple, not the least in part because it’s actually a great spot to

catch the fireworks away from the madness of Waterfront Park. Oh, and the music kicks ass, too. This year’s lineup includes the ever-ascendant HeloiSe and tHe Savoir faire — see the nifty cartoon on page 58 — suspender fusionistas the verMont Joy Parade and one of Burlington’s more underrated but wildly entertaining acts, sci-fi punks Wave of tHe future. (Imagine if griff tannen’s gang from “Back to the Future II” started a dance-punk band and you’re in the neighborhood.) Finally, once the last sulphur-y clouds of smoke have dissipated into the night sky following the fireworks, I’d suggest hoofing it over to Signal Kitchen for their fireworks after-party to take in the indie-rock awesomeness that is Here We go Magic. I’ve been digging their 2012 record A Different Ship for a while now. And the band’s most recent single, the ’80s-tinged “You Get More Done When You’re Happy,” is a summer anthem if ever I’ve heard one.

Lost in the star-spangled hubbub of Independence Day (Eve) is that July 3 has quietly become a pretty awesome day to be a music fan in Burlington. While most folks will flock to various locales along the waterfront for a good vantage point to witness simulated bombs bursting in air, savvy locals know there are plenty of quality rock-centric alternatives, most of which don’t involve navigating hordes of be-fannypacked tourists or getting run down by the stroller set. And 2013 should prove to be no exception, with a wealth of options this Wednesday, July 3. Starting at the top of the hill, local pop radio station Planet 96.7 is hosting its annual Planet in the Park concert at Battery Park. The daylong showcase features a bunch of up-andcoming radio-ready acts, including Florida rapper Jake Miller, R&B singer Jadagrace, Sri Lankan rapper delon, NYC-based rockers Honor Society, Nova Scotia-based rapper claSSified and Canadian pop-rockers Beyond tHe Sun — the last of whom honestly claim creed as an influence, which, to be honest, I can in no way endorse save for the voyeuristic value of watching a band who genuinely take cues from

a big draw anymore, so it’s unfair to expect much. But if they are indicative of what bands can expect to get paid now … sweet baby Jesus, it’s worse than I thought. Being a musician has always been akin to taking a vow of poverty. But I’m not sure why anyone would try to make it in music anymore if the going rate is basically sub-minimum wage. So go ahead, bands, benefit away. I still maintain that supposedly creative people should be able to come up with more inventive fundraising ideas than essentially holding their hands out. But I won’t begrudge you if you do. And good luck out there.

SEVENDAYSVT.COM

local musician SEAN WITTERS made the most reasoned — and civil — points. Commenting on a thread on my public Facebook page (facebook.com/ danbollesmusic), Witters explained that he has been discouraged by gigs that don’t pay any more than they did 20 years ago, and that he sees an increasing sense of apathy and entitlement from audiences, which compounds the problem. He went on to argue that, given the increasingly competitive climate in both clubs and online, bands need to find creative ways of engaging their audiences — and loosening their purse strings. You know what? He’s right. I still think designating a fundraising gig as an album-benefit show is tacky. However, I suspect being out of the working-musician game for several years now has me less in touch with how challenging conditions are on the ground. Bands have been grumbling about low pay forever. But I wonder if maybe there’s more validity to those complaints than there used to be. Recently, an old band of mine has been rehearsing for some reunion-ish gigs. I won’t mention which band. But back in the day we were modestly successful on a local level and could generally count on pulling in a decent guarantee from clubs, especially during the peak of our popularity. We’re not a working band anymore, so money isn’t a big deal. We’re just playing for fun now. That said, I have been shocked by how comically low the compensation offers have been for some of the gigs we’ve looked into. I can’t say with authority that those offers are representative of the current situation at clubs in the area — and frankly, we’re probably not

movies The Heat ★★★★

B

efore I tell you what a huge fan of Bridesmaids director Paul Feig I am, and what a worthy followup to that comic milestone his new film is, I feel it my duty to correct the cinematic record. Although virtually every review of The Heat you read will at some point declare it the first buddy cop film to feature a mismatched team of crime-fighting women, this simply isn’t the case. Permit me to remind you of a major Hollywood production written and directed by a major (though little-known) Hollywood player, Dan Goldberg, which actually broke that barrier a quarter century ago: Feds. It’s not surprising that Goldberg got there first: He’s assembled one of movie comedy’s most impressive résumés. What is surprising is that a guy could somehow be talented enough to write Meatballs (1979) and Stripes (1981) and produce everything from Private Parts (1997) and Old School (2003) to all three Hangovers while not becoming a household name. For whatever reason, Goldberg has kept a low profile, and the same can be said for his female-buddy-film breakthrough. There’s a reason critics are calling The Heat the first film of its kind; Feds was as forgettable as it was groundbreaking. Rebecca De Mornay

and “Saturday Night Live” alum Mary Gross played fledgling FBI agents forced to divide their time between battling bad guys and the chauvinism of their fellow agents. Hey, it wasn’t the funnier of the two films, but it was the first. Paul Feig’s résumé may not be quite as mind-boggling as Goldberg’s — yet — but he’s off to a pretty promising start, having created the TV cult favorite “Freaks and Geeks” and honed his art directing episodes of “Arrested Development,” “Weeds” and “The Office.” In 2011, he helmed Bridesmaids, the comedy that turned Hollywood humor on its head and gave Melissa McCarthy (who’d been making films for a decade and a half ) a proper introduction to the movie going world. Suddenly women were recognized as being just as foul-mouthed funny as their male counterparts. And none was foul-mouthed funnier than McCarthy. She didn’t just change movie comedy; she earned an Oscar nomination for the brilliance and originality with which she did so. She was the Beatles to Feig’s George Martin. Or something like that. So going into The Heat, I had just one question: Could they follow up Meet the Beatles with the comic equivalent of Beatles ’65? I’m happy to report the answer is a definitive yeah, yeah, yeah. I may be overdoing

LEGAL BRIEFS McCarthy conducts an undercover investigation into her partner’s choice of crime-fighting attire in the latest from Paul Feig.

the Fab Four comparison, but only because I believe it reflects the revolutionary impact of McCarthy’s extraordinary gifts. She’s a force of nature and, if you think that’s an exaggeration, watch the outtakes from This Is 40. The bonus footage of her improvising a single scene has more laughs than most mainstream comedies. Plus their sequels. Here’s all you really need to know about this picture: It doesn’t matter that McCarthy plays a rule-breaking Boston detective, or that Sandra Bullock is a by-the-book FBI agent, or that the odd couple teams up to take down a Beantown drug lord. The plot is buddy-film boilerplate, little more than an excuse for McCarthy to do her thing. All that

The Bling Ring ★★★

A

copy of Sofia Coppola’s latest film should be stowed in a climatecontrolled archive somewhere. Not because it’s a classic, but because, if the various economic-doomsday prophets are correct, the people of the future will want to understand the society of excess that led to our downfall. It’s hard to imagine a film that illustrates the problem better than this lightly fictionalized account of a gang of affluent LA teenagers who burgled the homes of celebrities starting in 2008, taking a haul of more than $3 million in designer goods. When the kids break into Paris Hilton’s mansion (filmed in her actual home), they encounter piles of glittering jewels, rows on rows of colorcoordinated stilettos, and a nightclub room complete with stripper pole. It’s like a hyperbolic description of the king’s coffers in a fairy tale, with an appropriately weird twist: No one guards this abundance. The thieves discover Hilton’s house key under her doormat. Someone watching this film centuries hence might think that 21st-century America had no poor, so careless were the rich of their wealth. When aspiring fashion designer Rebecca (Katie Chang) decides to introduce her new friend, Marc (Israel Broussard), to the world of petty crime, she takes him on a jaunt down her street. They pluck handbags from unlocked luxury cars the way kids of another era might pluck apples.

WALK OF LAME Five young wannabes become celebrities (sort of) by stealing from them in Coppola’s fact-based drama.

Partially shot by the late cinematographer Harris Savides (Zodiac), The Bling Ring has a lush look that does justice to its subject. The script, however, isn’t as inventive. Coppola drew much of the teens’ most memorable dialogue straight from the Vanity Fair story by Nancy Jo Sales on which the film is based. The public appearances of alleged Bling Ring member Alexis Neiers offered another trove of ready-made satirical material. Played with wicked self-awareness

by Emma Watson, the character based on Neiers is prone to comparing herself to Angelina Jolie and declaring, “I want to lead a country one day, for all I know.” At home, her mom (Leslie Mann) plies her daughters with Adderall and a philosophy of self-affirmation based on The Secret. It’s funny stuff, but already familiar to anyone who managed to endure five minutes of Neiers’ short-lived E! reality show. Where Coppola fails is in filling the spaces between

matters is she does it, and Bullock doesn’t get in the way. McCarthy is easily as gut busting as any guy who’s ever played essentially the same part — from Mel Gibson to Martin Lawrence to Nick Nolte to Chris Tucker. The difference isn’t even so much that she’s a woman as that she makes up so much of her funniest stuff as she goes along. Her brain is like the world’s fastest, filthiest supercomputer. It’s a lethal weapon. She kills. The Heat is the most fun you’ll ever have in police custody, and the one time you’ll be glad you got a ticket. RI C K KI S O N AK

REVIEWS the soundbites — that is, in giving her shallow characters the shadings that might lead us to empathy and insight. We get a sense of the codependent bond between insecure Marc (who laments his lack of “A-list looks”) and his gal pal Rebecca, who appears to instigate the crimes out of a pathological need to feel celebrities’ clothes against her skin. Broussard and Chang have good moments, but their characters remain sketches, static and undeveloped. As the movie progresses, it increasingly feels like we’re not being told a coherent story so much as tagging along on a tour of a world as bizarre as the Ancien Régime. In a few shots, Coppola captures — visually, at least — a certain cold perspective on that world: When the kids break into Audrina Patridge’s home, we watch them from a distance through her giant windows, like minnows in a glowing fishbowl. But then we’re treated to scene after scene of the characters showing off their stolen finery in slo-mo, or gawping at the stars’ riches and exchanging bons mots such as “Oh, my God.” “I know, right?” In short, the movie is a little too close to being an E! reality show. We get the point: These people need a rude awakening. But, aside from fleeting shots of the characters in orange prison jumpsuits, nothing in this film suggests they will ever get one.

NEWS QUIRKs by roland sweet Curses, Foiled Again

Robert Johnson, 69, pleaded guilty to shooting his wife in the back of the head at their home in O’Toole, W.Va. Prosecutors said Johnson then shot himself under the chin, but his dentures deflected the bullet, saving his life for the trial. (Bluefield’s WVVA-TV) Dylan Aufdengarten, 27, an inmate at Nebraska’s Lincoln County Detention Center, escaped from his workrelease job and was picked up by his girlfriend, Jennifer Harmon, 29, and a getaway driver. They hadn’t gone five miles when Aufdengarten and Harmon started arguing, and she kicked him out of the car. She then told police where to find him, and they did. (Associated Press)

Tough to Swallow

Unfounded complaints about water quality could constitute an “act of terrorism,” according to Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation deputy director Sherwin Smith. “We take water quality very seriously. Very, very seriously,” Smith told Maury County residents attending a meeting organized by State Rep. Sheila Butt in response to their concerns that some children had become ill drinking the water. Smith warned that water-quality

Robbing Peter to Pay Paul

Susan Dawn Seibert, 49, pleaded guilty to embezzling more than $545,000 from a California pizza chain while she was its bookkeeper. She aroused suspicion when she quit her job after learning that the Leucadia Pizzeria & Italian Restaurant planned to audit the books. San Diego County prosecutor Anna Winn said Seibert explained that she took the money to repay a previous employer who had sued her for embezzlement. (San Diego’s KSWB-TV)

When Guns Are Outlawed

Authorities charged Evelyn Mills Moore, 57, of Kings Mountain, N.C., with inflicting serious injury after beating another woman with a Bible. (Cleveland County’s Shelby Star) Authorities in Oakland County, Mich., charged Glenn Steven Lott, 59, with assault with a deadly weapon after they said he stabbed a golfing companion with the shaft of a Cal-

laway five-iron he had broken on the victim’s arm during an argument that reportedly began when the victim questioned Lott about how many strokes he took on the 12th hole. (Macomb Daily) Mark Tait, 38, was found guilty of assaulting the landlord of a pub in Dundee, Scotland, with a handful of twigs. Tait had been escorted from the pub after being refused service but returned a short time later. “I thought it was a weapon coming up to my face,” victim Colin Bamburgh told the court. “I think he had around 10 or 12 twigs.” (Dundee’s Courier)

Felonious Appetizers

Federal prosecutors accused Mai Nhu Nguyen, 47, an immigration officer in Santa Ana, Calif., of accepting 200 egg rolls as a bribe from an applicant for citizenship. (Associated Press)

India’s GoAir airline said it would begin hiring mostly female flight attendants because they weigh 30 to 40 pounds less on average than men, thereby saving up to $500,000 a year in fuel costs. The airline currently has four male flight attendants for every six female ones. (CNN)

Retort Follies

After Jonathan Scull, 26, reportedly stole two cans of beer from a liquor store in Somerville, Mass., he stuffed the cans down his pants and told a store clerk who asked what the bulge around his ankles was, “It’s my genitals.” The clerk disputed his claim, and the man fled. When police caught up with him in neighboring Medford, Scull told the three officers that his actions at the liquor store were none of their business and that they should “fuck off.” Instead, they arrested him and charged him with multiple crimes. (Wicked Local Somerville) After police in Ferndale, Mich., received reports of a man leaving a restaurant without paying for his order, officers stopped Marlon Cortez Stanfield, 35, who fit the check evader’s description. They discussed the incident with Stanfield and gave him the chance to return and pay the bill. Instead, he yelled obscenities and sped away. Officers gave chase but called it off because they already knew his identity. They drove to his home address and arrested him when he showed up. (Detroit News)

REAL fRee will astRology by rob brezsny July 04-10

have more than enough to draw on when an unexpected opportunity arrives. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to make this a habit, Aries.

tauRus (April 20-May 20): In the course

Cancer (June 21-July 22)

Thomas Gray was a renowned 18th-century English poet best remembered for his “Elegy Written in a Country Churchyard.” It was a short poem — only 986 words, which is less than the length of this horoscope column. On the other hand, it took him seven years to write it, or an average of 12 words per month. I suspect that you are embarking on a labor of love that will evolve at a gradual pace, too, Cancerian. It might not occupy you for seven years, but it will probably take longer than you imagine. And yet that’s exactly how long it should take. This is a character-building, life-defining project that can’t and shouldn’t be rushed.

gemiNi (May 21-June 20): no one knows the scientific reasons why long-distance runners sometimes get a “second wind.” nonetheless, such a thing exists. It allows athletes to resume their peak efforts after seemingly having reached a point of exhaustion. According to my reading of the astrological omens, a metaphorical version of this happy event will occur for you sometime soon, Gemini. you made a good beginning but have been flagging a bit of late. Any minute now, though, I expect you will get your second wind. leo

(July 23-Aug. 22): The 18th-century German philosopher Georg Christoph Lichtenberg accepted the possibility that some humans have the power of clairvoyance. “The ‘second sight’ possessed by the Highlanders in scotland is actually a foreknowledge of future events,” he wrote. “I believe they possess this gift because they don’t wear trousers. That is also why in all countries women are more prone to utter prophecies.” I bring this to your attention, Leo, because I believe that in the coming weeks you’re likely to catch accurate glimpses of what’s to come — especially when you’re not wearing pants.

ViRgo (Aug. 23-sept. 22): Were you nur-

tured well by caring adults in the first year of your life? If so, I bet you now have the capacity to fix whatever’s ailing your tribe or posse. you

liBRa (sept. 23-oct. 22): summing up his

experiment in living at Walden Pond, naturalist Henry David Thoreau said this: “I learned that if one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours. He will pass an invisible boundary; new, universal, and more liberal laws will begin to establish themselves around and within him; or the old laws will be expanded, and interpreted in his favor in a more liberal sense, and he will live with the license of a higher order of beings.” Given the astrological factors that will be impacting your life in the next 12 months, Libra, you might consider adopting this philosophy as your own.

scoRPio

(oct. 23-nov. 21): Thirteen thousand years ago, lions and mammoths and camels roamed parts of north America. but along with many other large beasts, they ultimately became extinct. Possible explanations for their demise include climate change and over-hunting by humans. In recent years a group of biologists has proposed a plan to repopulate the western part of the continent with similar species. They call their idea “rewilding.” In the coming months, scorpio, I suggest you consider a re-wilding program of your own. Cosmic forces will be on your side if you reinvigorate your connection to the raw, primal aspects of both your own nature and the great outdoors.

sagittaRius (nov. 22-Dec. 21): Who was russia’s greatest poet? Many critics say it was Alexander Pushkin, who lived in the 19th century. His abundant creativity was undoubtedly related to his unruly libido. by the time he was 31 years old, he’d had 112 lovers. but then he met his ultimate muse, the lovely and intelligent natalya Goncharova, to whom he remained faithful. “Without you,” he

aQuaRius (Jan. 20-feb. 18): two years

into the War of 1812, british soldiers invaded Washington, D.C. They set fire to the White House and other government buildings. The flames raged out of control, spreading in all directions. The entire city was in danger of burning. In the nick of time, a fierce storm hit, producing a tornado and heavy rains. Most of the fires were extinguished. battered by the weather, the british army retreated. America’s capital was saved. I predict that you, Aquarius, will soon be the beneficiary of a somewhat less dramatic example of this series of events. Give thanks for the “lucky storm.”

Pisces

(feb. 19-March 20): Like the legendary Most Interesting Man in the World who shills for Dos equis beer, you will never step in gum on the sidewalk or lose a sock in the coming weeks. your cereal will never get soggy; it’ll sit there, staying crispy, just for you. The pheromones you secrete will affect people miles away. you’ll have the power to pop open a piñata with the blink of your eye. If you take a rorschach test, you’ll ace it. Ghosts will sit around campfires telling stories about you. Cafés and restaurants may name sandwiches after you. If you so choose, you’ll be able to live vicariously through yourself. you will give your guardian angel a sense of security.

Some people spend a lifetime pursuing a dream. At Vermont Tech, we believe that’s way too long.

8H-VTC061213.indd 1

caPRicoRN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): It’s Grease Week — a time when you need to make sure everything is as well-oiled as possible. Does your car need a quart of Castrol? Is it time to bring more extra virgin olive oil into your kitchen? Do you have any K-y Jelly in your nightstand, just in case? Are there creaky doors or stuck screws or squeaky wheels that could use some WD-40? be liberal with the lubrication, Capricorn — both literally and metaphorically. you need smooth procedures and natural transitions.

aRies (March 21-April 19): In his book The Fisher King and the Handless Maiden, robert Johnson says many of us are as much in debt with our psychic energy as we are with our financial life. We work too hard. We rarely refresh ourselves with silence and slowness and peace. We don’t get enough sleep or good food or exposure to nature. And so we’re routinely using up more of our reserves than we are able to replenish. We’re chronically running a deficit. “It is genius to store energy,” says Johnson. He recommends creating a plan to save it up so that you always

of your long life, I estimate you will come up with approximately 60,000 really good ideas. some of these are small, like those that help you decide how to spend your weekend. some are big ones, like those that reveal the best place for you to live. As your destiny unfolds, you go through phases when you have fewer good ideas than average, and other phases when you’re overflowing with them. The period you’re in right now is one of the latter. you are a fountain of bright notions, intuitive insights and fresh perspectives. take advantage of the abundance, taurus. solve as many riddles and dilemmas as you can.

could offer some inspiration that will renew everyone’s motivation to work together. you might improve the group communication as you strengthen the foundation that supports you all. And what about if you were not given an abundance of tender love as a young child? I think you will still have the power to raise your crew’s mood, but you may end up kicking a few butts along the way.

I was with my ex-girlfriend for six months, but then I met another girl at a party and totally fell hard. I knew that I had to follow my feelings and pursue this new relationship, but I didn’t want to hurt my then-girlfriend. Instead of acting like a man and being honest with her, I let my new relationship go too far and ended up cheating. Of course, when I told my girlfriend at the time she was upset and I felt like an ass. At the time, I didn’t have the heart to tell her that I was in love with the other woman. Well, she definitely knows now, and she’s pissed. She is bad-mouthing me and my new girlfriend everywhere she goes. What’s worse is that she slept with my cousin (he has since apologized, and we’re cool). I can only imagine she did this to get back at me. They’re not dating or anything, but she made sure I heard about it. My question is, how can I get her to stop? My new girlfriend is getting pretty tired of it, and I don’t want to lose her.

Dear Exed Out

Signed,

Exed Out

It sounds like you know the error of your ways, so I won’t spend too much time beating you up. That said, it’s worth pointing out that a little sensitivity on your part may have gone a long way in preventing some of this drama. If you had a time machine, I would tell you to go back and break up with your ex cleanly — cheating is a cowardly way to get out of a relationship, and now you’re paying the price. As for your ex and her ridiculous behavior, she’s hurt, angry and embarrassed. She wants to get back at you, and she doesn’t care who she uses in the process (namely your cousin, who should have known better than to stick his business where it doesn’t belong). My advice is to ignore her. I know it might be difficult, but engaging her will only fuel her fire. Eventually she’ll tire of the bad-mouthing and (hopefully) find someone new. Instead, focus on your new girlfriend. Ask her how you can best support her through this adolescent assault from your ex. Above all, let her know that you’ve learned your lesson and that you’ll always treat her with more respect than you paid your ex.

Exiting, mm

y son, Joey, is 9 years old and has Koolen de Vries Syndrome, causing global developmental delays and many sensory processing issues. He developed an extreme fear of dogs when he was about 5, both as a result of getting bit a few months prior and his sensory issues. He had a very difficult time just being in the same room with a dog, but then along came Lola (formerly Jessica). We went back and forth about whether or not to get a dog, but our younger son really wanted a dog, and we felt the timing was right. Joey was scared and was having a difficult time adjusting, so imagine my surprise when I came out to the living room and found Joey and Lola lying together on the couch, Joey petting her head. Such a breakthrough for him and I was really proud of both of them – I never thought I’d see the day, and boy was it a wonderful sight. Lola is also an excellent snuggler with my youngest, but it is what happened with Joey that is a true testament to the benefit of a rescue animal!
