— Dave Kleh President, Pizza Putt, Inc. South Burlington I should never; ever be

TOO MUCH VITRIOL I am a regular reader of Peter Freyne’s column, and this week was no exception. Given the utter lack of any other cogent political reporting in this town, I welcome Peter’s con tribution to the field. At the same time, I often find his column painful to read. The vitriol with which he attacks (or mocks) those he considers to be on the wrong side of an issue seems to go beyond the bounds of editorializing, and certainly beyond unbiased reporting. Ultimately his writing epitomizes and perhaps legitimizes for many the intolerance for opin ions contrary to our own that we so often decry. I wonder whether he would lose his readership by present/' ing a respectful and balanced view of issues he chooses to comment on. For example, while I believe that civil-union supporters have good cause to celebrate this law, might they npt also have some measure of ■' ■ empathy for the “Take Back . Vermonters” who truly believe their core values are being threatened? And, conversely, might those staunch traditionalists allow some room in our fair state for those whose beliefs run contrary to their own? Peter Freyne’s intelligent and often insightful political commen tary loses much of its power to enlighten when it takes on the good guy (liberal)/bad guy (conservative)

tone Peter is so fond of. But more crucially, in what I believe is a desire to be provocative and entertaining, he only succeeds in engendering divisiveness. It is too bad that such a fine newspaper, devoted in large measure to the arts, an aspect of human culture so good at bringing us together, undermines that poten tial by giving a forum to such antag onistically toned reporting. — Mark Nash Charlotte HISTORY LESSONS I am writing in response to my comrade Brian Walsh’s letter in the August 8 “Weekly Mail.” I apologize for not offering historical arguments in my defense of the Fourth of July. It is obvious that I seriously overesti mated Mr. Walsh’s intelligence. Perhaps I missed it, but I don’t think ExxonMobil sponsored the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Of course, I have been, as you said, “spoon-fed since elementary school,” so it’s easy to see how I could have missed this item while earning two college degrees and a graduate degree. 1 must not have had any, as you call it, “real history” during all that class time. Perhaps if f bone up on my Rousseau and Marx, I will pass muster for you. The history lesson I would like to refer you to occurred in 1989 — perhaps you remember the collapse of the Berlin Wall, when

millions of people demanded free dom from tyranny? They were demanding the freedom that it seems you so easily take for granted, and one which our forefathers imagined on that day in 1776, and one which brave American men and women have fought for ever since. You don’t believe that event was a fake promul gated by capitalists, do you? Mr. Walsh, it may disappoint you to know that corporations reflect the will of the people. This may be a horrible idea for someone such as yourself to accept, but I will try to explain it in a manner that even a pabulum reader can under stand. People buy things. Corpora tions sell things. It is in the best interests of corporations to sell things that people would like to buy. In this way, corporations act as the will of the people. You should like that. Here’s an example. If you don’t want drilling in ANWR, cut your oil consumption. If you don’t like the policies of a corporation, boycott it. They will listen. If you don’t like the policies of a politician, vote differ ently or run yourself. It’s not a very difficult concept to grasp. It also might shock you to know that cor porations provide people with jobs, too. I bet you thought all along that was government’s job. . Your problem seems to be that you are in complete disagreement with the vast majority of the popula

cloned because I am

tion who seem to like living in the United States, yet you are cursed by the fact that you think you know so much better than all the rest of us. I guess you had the good fortune to be issued the non-corporate text books in school. By the way, I hate to disappoint you, but I oppose drilling in ANWR and I don’t drive an SUV and I’m not a Republican. I am a free-thinking, freedom-loving American. You should join us. Regards and good luck. — Walter Allen Burlington CORRECTION: We inadvertently mistitled an upcoming film by Vermont film maker Nora Jacobson [“Rhythm & News,” August 8], which will include Burlington singer-songwriter Rachel Bissex.

Dean Chooses Successor? Ears pricked. Jaws dropped. Drinks spilled. Vermont political observers from every corner of the state looked at their television sets last Thursday evening in utter disbelief and asked, “Did H o w ard Dean really say what I think he said?” Last Thursday evening, WCAX-TV broadcast an interview with Gov. Dean by reporter/anchor Sera Congi in which the Democrat governor of Vermont enthusiastically praised the talent and qualifications of one of the two Republican candi dates for governor — Cornelius Hogan.

Asked if King Con would make a good governor, Dean replied that Hogan most certain ly would, “because he’s been as close as you can get to being governor and he’s got tremen dous backbone.” Ho-Ho explained that “back bone” is the number one requirement for the job. He described it as “the ability to stand up to people and say no.” Our veteran governor point ed out, “The governor’s job is to say no. The Legislature’s job is to say yes and get as much as they can for their constituents. Somebody,” said Dean, “has to mind the store. Con is very good at minding the store and he doesn’t take any guff from anybody, and that’s the most important quality in the gover nor’s office.” “I was amazed,” Hogan told £»y Seven Days this week. “It was wonderful!” However, Dean’s “endorsement” wasn’t so won derful in Democrat circles. C in dy M e tc a lf, the chair of the Vermont Democratic Party, also watched the WCAX broadcast last Thursday. “I was laying there in shock,” said Metcalf. “Did he really almost endorse Con Hogan?” she asked herself. W /-.U A. .( i By Monday, Metcalf explained what she’d seen on her TV set as “WGOP doing their thing.” She explained, “Anyone who knows how close Dean is to the Democratic Governors Association knows that he is not going to endorse a Republican no matter what.” By the way, another hat Metcalf wears is that of chief of staff for Lt. Gov. Doug R a c in e , a man who wants to succeed Dean as governor. “I don’t think it hurts to have the governor say nice things about you if you want the job,” conced ed Ms. Metcalf. But Cindy’s spin on Dean’s praise for King Con, was that “it appeared to take the wind out of the sails of the crowned Republican.” That would be a reference to Republican Treasurer Jim Do u glas. Slim Jim’s been openly run ning for governor since last winter and has locked up the endorsement of 82 of the 83 members of the House Republican Caucus. Dean had nothing to say about Douglas’ backbone. On Sunday morning, Dean was the guest on WCAX’s “You Can Bore Me,” only this one was far from boring. Asked about his endorsement of Con Hogan the previous Thursday, Ho-Ho reiterated that Hogan would make an “outstanding” governor. “There’s no question about that,” said Dean, noting Hogan’s stellar work running the state’s Agency of Human Services. But Dean quickly backed away from the “E” word. “I’m certainly not going to endorse [Hogan],” Dean told M arse lis Pa rs on s. “I am a Democrat, not a particularly partisan Democrat, but I am going to support the Democratic ticket, of course.” That’s a relief, eh? Marsillyiss noted that Doug Racine and State Sen, Pe te r S h um lin are angling for the Democratic nomination should Dean not seek reelection. “So now you have three people who would serve Vermont well at some time,” said Dean, with a smile. Left out of the discussion was Jim Douglas, who did not get a mention on Ho-Ho’s list of qual ified gubernatorial hopefuls. It was an omission that spoke volumes. Doug Racine told Seven Days Monday he’s not concerned about Ho-Ho’s praise for King Con. Our current Lite-Gov said he suspected Dean may just

■

be having a little fun in the Republican camp. Racine said he’s “confident” Dean will support the Democratic gubernatorial candidate, “and I intend to be that candidate,” he said. Sen. Shumlin is vacationing in the Canadian Maritimes this week and could not be reached for comment.

U V M ’s S aggin g Reputation — No doubt, it’s not

been a good week up at Groovy UV. The housing crunch faced by returning students this year is look ing tighter than ever. The facul ty is newly unionized, and trustee chairman Bruce L is m a n ’s reputation is on the line as the school searches for a new, permanent president to replace the one the trustees dumped last spring. But the worst news of all comes from The Princeton Reviews annual college rank ings. The rankings are based on feedback from 65,000 college students coast to coast. For years, Camp Catamount has enjoyed a distinguished nation al reputation as one of America’s premier “party schools.” But in the latest rank ings released this week, UVM has slipped from 13th to 18th in the country. Very disturbing. The drop in party school prestige, it should be noted, has happened during the watch of interim President Ed Colodny, a retired airline executive. You’d p H jP v |i | |T think with all the booze poured down airline passengers’ throats, Colodny could have maintained Vermont’s standing? Let’s hope the new president will address the slippage. Despite the drop, in party rank, however, UVM does get a pretty uplifting endorsement in the “What Students Say” category: “Many UVM undergrads feel that their student body provides ‘a wide variety of social groups. From hippies to jocks, UVM has it all.’ To these happy undergrads, ‘the atmosphere up here is real laidback and relaxed. I noticed when I first came up here that if you smile at someone or say “hi” to a stranger, they almost always say “hi” back. People up here are cool.’” Nice. The Review goes on to note that there are “more than a few” students “who complain that ‘some times I feel as if I’m surrounded by hippies, extreme environmentalists and communists. They aren’t that widespread on campus, they’re just very vocal.’” Amen! But before all you Camp Catamount fans get too depressed over the drop in “party school” rank ings, take note. The Princeton Review ranks Groovy UV third in the country behind the giant state uni versities of Wisconsin and Alabama in the “Lots of Hard Liquor” category! Cheer up! Every year about this time, like clockwork, UVM dominates the local media spotlight when the top “party schools” are announced. But UVM is not the only Vermont college to win national rank ing. Unfortunately, the others always get over looked. No more. Itsy-bitsy Goddard College (enrollment — 345), should be celebrating big-time this week as The Princeton Review ranks the crunchy, far-out Plainfield, Vermont, institution of “higher” learning sixth in the nation in the very important “Quality of Life” category. (The University of Richmond ranked first, followed by Harvard, University of California-Santa Cruz, Dartmouth College and Brigham Young.) Goddard also ranked 16th in the nation in the cannabis-friendly “Reefer Madness” category. Little Goddard is right up there with the pot-smoking big boys like NYU, the University of WisconsinMadison and the University of Colorado-Boulder. Congratulations, Goddard! Fire up the bongs! Also winning acclaim this year is high-brow Bennington College (enrollment — 545). Bennington won recognition for its campus-wide lack of interest in political activity. It’s called the

Curses, Foiled Again Police in Omaha, Nebraska, arrested Edward Ming after he pulled up to a banks drivethrough window and presented a stolen check to the teller, who turned out to be the person the check was stolen from. While Ming waited for his cash, bank employees notified police and wrote down Ming’s license plate number. After getting the money, however, Ming asked to use the men’s room, which is where police found him. “We Lad the victim right there. We had the suspect right there. We had all the information,” Officer Meg Fricke said. “All we had to do was grab him.” • Police Officer Jason Cooper was on his way to cash a check at Capital City Bank in Topeka, Kansas, when police dispatchers reported that a man was trying to cash a stolen check there. As Cooper arrived at the bank, a man who was leaving fit the dis patcher’s description. “It was perfect timing. I couldn’t have planned it better,” Cooper said after arresting Jeffrey A. Huges, 28. When Cooper interviewed the bank clerks, he discovered the checks the suspect was attempting to cash were ones stolen from Cooper when his car was burglarized a month earlier. “He was pretty shocked,” Cooper said when Huges saw the name on the stolen check matched the one

on Cooper’s police badge. “It was some pretty sweet justice.” • A 27-year-old man broke into a library in Boksburg, South Africa, where Police Superintendent Christo Heunis was discussing crime statistics with business people. When the burglar alarm went off, Heunis helped security officers grab the suspect, who was carrying boxes and computer disks. Litigation Nation Joseph DeMarco of Shelton, Connecticut, filed a lawsuit against Colgate-Palmolive, claiming to have found a used condom in his toothpaste. He said the stress of discovering the condom caused his blood pres sure to rise, ultimately leading to a heart attack a year later. • Vanderbilt University Medical Center reached an out-of-court settlement with Arthur C. Tucker Jr. of Brentwood, Tennesee, who sued the hospital for $13 million after his penis had to be amputated from a botched prostate treatment. Tucker was being treated for a swollen prostate gland by a device designed to channel microwave energy through a catheter. Tucker’s lawyer Randall Kinnard alleged the catheter slipped, causing microwaves to be directed at Tucker’s penis instead of his prostate, severely burning his genital area. • A New Jersey couple filed a

I t ' s

suit against the Kellogg Co. over a house fire they blame on a flaming Pop-Tart. The cou ple’s attorney, Mauro C. Casci, said Brenda J. H urff put a cher ry Pop-Tart in the toaster, then left the house to drive her chil dren to preschool. When she returned 10 to 20 minutes later, smoke was pouring from house

and firefighters were on the scene. The fire caused $100,000 in damage. “She had put it in the toaster and apparently for got about it,” Casci said. Although Kellogg spokesperson Dick Lovell insisted, “Pop-Tarts are safe and do not cause fire,” the box warns customers not to “leave the toaster appliance unattended due to possible risk of fire.” Problem Solved Winds that increase with global warming could lessen the effects of such warming, accord ing to researchers at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography at La Jolla, California.

the third straight year, as hunters headed home before catching their quota. The rea son, according to fisheries scien tists, is “the increased use of Viagra, as a substitute for seal penises.” The organs are consid ered an aid to male sexual per formance in traditional Chinese medicine, but Canada’s Department of Fisheries and Oceans noted that slackening demand, starting in 1999, had dropped prices for “seal organs” from $100 to $13. Reality Bites Hollywood filmmakers shooting Reign o f Fire, a mythi cal adventure about dragons taking over England, decided to set the film amid snow-capped

h o w a

3000-foot mountains in Norfolk, only to discover once filming began that Norfolk is England’s flattest county. Its highest point is barely 300 feet. “I tried to explain that they were making a terrible mistake,” said Shaun Hindle, a behindthe-scenes worker from Hingham, Norfolk, “but they just shrugged their shoulders and said it was a small detail. Their view was that the film would be seen by 200 million people across the world, and only about two million would know that Norfolk is flat.” • Bottled water is no safer or healthier than tap water in most developed countries while sell ing for up to 1000 times the price, according to the World Wildlife Fund. Its study found that using tap water instead of bottled water could not only save consumers money, but also help the environment. The group estimated that the bottled water industry, which earns up to $22 billion annually, uses some 1.5 million tons of plastic every year.

The 10 seats are reserved for those female passengers who find it “too stressful sitting next to men.” ®

aise your hand if you knew August was “New Music M onth” in Vermont. During all the media reflection on the Dean Decade — and Dick Snelling’s gubernatorial era before that — no one thought to ask the sitting guv about his “appreciation for the creation ol new music.” And yet he recently put his pen to a proclamation stating that new music has been “fundamental to the histo ry of Vermont and Vermonters since the days of composer Justin Morgan.” You’re not alone if you thought Morgan was just a horse breeder. Though Dean is a fan of experimen tal music, his official endorsement came at the urging of composers and perform ers who will be making music all over M ontpelier this weekend at something called the O ught-O ne Festival. You’re not alone if you never heard of that, cither — not to m ention the plunderphonics, fractal music, microtonality, electroacoustics, postminimalism and other strange but joyful noises that will make up this festival. For two days, the nation’s smallest cap ital will host performers and composers who have never come together in one place before, for an event that has never occurred before, to make music few Vermonters have heard — or heard o f— before. But that said, within the micro cosm of “new music,” some of the OughtOne’s participants are quite renowned, indeed, and some of the works performed will be world premieres. These include a p ag e 8 a

piece by Jon Appleton, co-creator of the groundbreaking Synclavier and director of the graduate program in electroacoustic music at Dartmouth College. Other works are so spanking new they scarcely exist — they’ll be presented as works in progress — while some will be improvisations, never to exist again. Much of that which is rather lamely called “new music” has also gone under the slightly more descriptive rubric of “contemporary classical.” But festival organizers Dennis Bathory-Kitsz and David Gunn have coined a new moniker: “nonpop.” In fact, the tagline of OughtOne is “the Woodstock of Nonpop” — a catchy if equally oblique way to categorize this collection of sub-genres. The term is “useful because it implies there’s this whole world out there defined by what it’s not,” suggests Troy Peters, director of the Vermont Youth Orchestra. “I grew up in the classical tradition, and as a composer I still kind of say I write ‘con temporary classical.’ But it’s hard to come up with a name... composers today may not have any more connection to Brahms or Mozart than they do to Britney Spears.” Nor do the sub-genres necessarily resemble each other, though many rely on advanced sound technology. “If they share anything at all, it’s probably lack of visibil ity,” Bathory-Kitsz jokes. “But stylistically, no, no more than Frank Zappa and Wayne Newton do as pop artists.” He and Gunn are good at making up names, however — including their own alter-egos for the radio program they’ve hosted for the last six years. “Kalvos &

Damian’s New Music Bazaar” has injected experimental sounds onto the airwaves, and the Internet, every Saturday afternoon since May 1995 from Goddard College’s WGDR. “It was the first nonpop music show online in the U.S.,” Bathory-Kitsz — a.k.a. Kalvos — proclaims with pride. “We just did show number 325.” The shows include interviews with composers that are archived on K& D’s Web site. Many of those composers are huddled over a score in a town near you right now. “There are more composers per capita in Vermont than in any other state, mostly of nonpop genres,” exclaims Bathory-Kitsz. “Around 250 — it’s staggering!” The Ought-One Festival was a natural extension of the Kalvos and Damian show. “We figured it was time to get out of the virtual world and spend time with the artists in real life, and have the people who listen to our show see and hear them,” Bathory-Kitsz explains. “David and I made a concerted effort to bring this stuff together.” But they did have a little encourage ment. “I bugged them,” acknowledges Phil Kline, a New York composer who sits on the K&D board and will perform this weekend in Montpelier. “I thought it would be cool to have a festival up here in Vermont. By the third time I asked, they said, ‘Yeah, we’ll do it.’ They really took the ball. I had envisioned a one-day thing with a few composers. But they have this amazing Web forum, and it really made things happen.” I ’he Ought-One proved to be a lot more popular than anyone imagined. “We

didn’t think that many people would want to come and play for free,” Bathory-Kitsz says of performers who waived their fees. “I expected about 12 people to say yes. More than 100 did.” In fact, there will be 37 concerts involving 120 performers and composers, most of whom have been played or inter viewed on “Kalvos & Damian’s New Music Bazaar.” The numbers apparently intimidated officials at Goddard College, the original site of the festival; they backed out just last month. The organizers flew into panic mode. “The Onion River Arts Council saved our asses,” lauds Bathory-Kitsz, explaining the nonprofit managed to relocate the fes tival into performance quarters at four churches in downtown Montpelier — Bethany, Trinity, Christ and Unitarian — and the City Center for registration and info headquarters. Less than a week before participants begin to arrive — from as far as Europe — Bathory-Kitsz is still scrambling to find lodging for everyone. Meanwhile, Gunn is trying to figure out how to install a dance floor in a too-small section o f Bethany Church. “There are three performances on a dance space,” he frets. Time to improv.

avid Gunn — a.k.a. Damian — is a bit the worse for worrying about the upcoming weekend. He hasn’t had enough sleep and claims he’s losing his memory andhis sell-esteem. He just made a four-hour round trip delivering sheet

music to Kline and some other composers vacationing, and rehearsing, in Ludlow. “ blame Dennis for this festival,” Gunn announces. “Can I blame you, too?” If he’s on edge, it only seems to make him sillier. Even on the phone Gunn seems to be auditioning for a Monty Python skit — a John Cleese with an American accent. But then you get the . feeling maybe he’s always like this. His

oviegoing in greater Burlington appears poised for a return to hometown hege mony. Since 1994, the Hoyts Cinemas hold on the region has included all local theaters except the Ethan Allen — a second-run, “cheap seats” operation that now belongs to the Merrill Theatre Corporation. Merrill leased the other properties to Hoyts after a 22-year reign owning nearly all of the movie venues in the Queen City. Those leases will begin expiring in 2002, and the local company founded by native Vermonter Merrill Jarvis is preparing to reassert itself. That could mean a Green Mountain State finale for the Boston-based, Australian-owned Hoyts.

T m sure w e ’ ll be getting all of them — Billy Jarvis “We’ll get the Showcase back as of May 31st,” explained Jarvis, referring to the five-plex theater on Williston Road in South Burlington. “It’s going to be revitalized, with new seats, maybe some stadium seating and bigger screens. We’re thinking of running it as an art house.” Although Jarvis declines to comment on the possibility of buying the six-screen Nickelodeon in downtown Burlington and reclaiming Cinema Nine on Shelburne Road, he does hint, “If you’re going to run one or two, you rnight as well run them all. Who knows what will happen? I’d defi nitely be interested.” His son, Billy Jarvis, is more direct: “I’m sure

we’ll be getting all of them back.” Other changes are in the pipeline as well. “We’re also only restricted to keeping Ethan Allen a second-run house until May 31st,” Merrill Jarvis says, indicating he would then be free to show new releases at the New North End site. “I’m not sure just which direction we’ll go in. The place has a steady, devoted audience. I don’t want to gouge the public. I’m happy. We’re making money.” Six weeks ago, the Ethan Allen opened a firstrun independent film, Memento, that had never played any of the Hoyts theaters, according to Jarvis. Propelled by strong reviews, cineastes have been flocking to see the dark, idiosyncratic thriller about the frailty of human memory. “I hope to hang onto the film until the students come back to town,” he points out. “They’ll real ly dig it.” The four-screen theater might not have a long shelf life at its current location in the rapidly evolving Ethan Allen Shopping Center, where a Hannaford Superstore is under construction to replace the now-dismantled Grand Union. “We’re in discussions with the developer to build a new six-plex there,” says Jarvisfwho expects to contin ue spending half of each year in semi-retirement in Las Vegas. The former owner of the Flynn Theatre is also behind the planned 10-plex Maple Tree Cinemas at Taft Corners, a venue for commercial releases that will have a stadium seating capacity of about 1500. Its scheduled to open next spring or early summer. Jarvis also owns the Bijou, a 500-seat four-plex in Morrisville. When it comes to employees, he believes the business will be able to draw from the expansive family labor pool — his wife, four sons, one daughter and grandchildren. “There’s always a Jarvis in the theater,” he pledges. ® — S.G.

Eighteen years later, Montreal’s affection for odd cou ples has not diminished, but the essential component is cinema rather than celebrity. It’s a golden opportunity to see the work of filmmakers both famous and obscure from around the globe, specifically 388 features, docu mentaries and shorts from 66 countries; 197 of them will be international premieres. So, Serge Losique — the patriarch who has guided this extravaganza for the past quartercentury -— is not altogether _ incorrect when he says that the guest list remains of little con cern “as long as we have the ' movies.” (Translation: “We know who’s coming, but like to keep the media guessing until the last minute.”) But wouldn’t it be nice to catch a glimpse of legends such as Jean-Luc Godard, Shohei Imamura, Ettore Scola, Kon Ichikawa and Lina Wertmuller, all of whom have new films included in the schedule? Given that Loren plays the lead in Wertmuller’s latest, Francesca and Nunziatta, it’s hard to imagine the Rome-based director would n’t show up. Such a personality parade could help put what Losique prefers to call the 2001 “edition,” as opposed to anniver sary, on par with previous fests. A stroll down memory lane recalls an impressive group of glit terati: Ingrid Bergman, Gloria Swanson, director Howard Hawks and the now-elusive Godard at the very first festival in 1977; Sergio Leone and author Arthur Miller in 1979; Gina Lollabrigida, Rainer Werner Fassbinder, Robert Altman and Sting — be still, my heart! — in 1981; Jane Fonda, Toshiro Mifune and Clint Eastwood in 1985. Go ahead, make my film festival. hese days Montreal almost never spotlights the Brad Pitts, Gwyneth Paltrows and Matt Damons of contempo rary Hollywood hype. Perhaps that change can be attributed to what Swanson’s aging diva declares in Sunset Boulevard, when someone suggests she used

to be a big star: “I am big. It’s the pictures that got small.” Be that as it may, and despite James Cameron’s crowing remarks at the success of Titanic, size doesn’t really matter as much outside Tinseltown. This year’s films at the festival — which has turned increasingly toward Europe, Asia, Africa and Latin America for its selections — seem to have intriguing premises, whatever their scale or pedigree. In competition, the choices reflect a range of global and his torical perspectives: Tar Angel, a Canadian film on tap for opening night, depicts the frustrating struggle for citizenship endured by Algerian immigrants in Quebec. Leo and Claire is set in 1933 Nuremberg, where the relation ship of a prosperous Jewish busi nessman and a flirtatious German photographer spells danger. Baran addresses the hardships facing Afghani refugees living in Iran. Pinero, an American inde pendent, covers the many tri umphs and travails of Nuyorican poet-playwright Miguel Pinero — portrayed by former “Law & Order” detective and ex-Julia Roberts boy toy, Benjamin Bratt. Abandoned is the story of a boy in impoverished Hungary, circa I960, whose divorced parents leave him at a grim orphanage. Coming of age is the issue in Todd Field’s In the Bedroom, with Sissy Spacek and Marisa Tomei, in which a college-bound guy falls for an older woman. Heading south to Latin America, the festival offerings are diverse. Maids, from Brazil, fol lows the comedic fortunes of five young women from the country side trying to better their lives while working as cleaning ladies for wealthy people. More somber tales emerge from Uruguay (En La Puta Vida, about a hairdresser who slides into prostitution), Argentina (Stubborn, which traces the path of an unemployed man recruited by a volatile band of terrorists), Chile {I Love You, the saga of four teens from broken homes) and Venezuela (A House with a View o f the Sea, about a

A vintage sensibility will be evident in a restored Metropolis, the 1927 silent classic by Fritz Lang about a futuristic society in which the workers are at the mercy of the capitalists. usic and movies are paired in two off-beat festivities that are part of a week-long series of free outdoor screenings next to the Place des Arts on St-Catherine: Under ground, Emir Kusturica’s 1995 Cannes award-winning absurdist drama about the Balkan political

Countess won’t be included in the Loren tribute this Sunday; Marriage Italian Style has that honor. Chan’s tribute on September 1 will be paired with the movie he chose from his own repertoire, The Legend o f Drunken Master.

By Jeanne Keller couple of years ago the Montreal English-language daily The Gazette examined Anglo flight from the city following the separatist referendum. W hat it found was surprising. The most fre quently appearing name in the Montreal phone directory was not Paquette or Chouinard or Gagne, the paper reported. It was Nguyen. Prior to 1975, only a few hundred Vietnamese resided in all of Canada, mostly on student visas. After the North Vietnamese victory in 1975, thousands of

refugees from the South settled in Canada, followed by 50,000 boat people during 1979-80. While most stayed on the Pacific Rim, settling in British Columbia, by 1996 the Canadian census recorded 25,000 Vietnamese immigrants in the city of Montreal. Walking through Chinatown, it’s not difficult to see the impact: Grocery stores that were monocultural are now pan-Asian, and several Vietnamese restau rants have taken root on St-Laurent in the two blocks flanking Rue La Gauchetiere. Currently, a Southeast Asian shopping district is developing at the intersection of Jean-Talon and St-Denis, on the eastern

edge of Little Italy, 20 minutes from downtown. New food shops seem to appear every month, with names like Thai-Son, Thai-Hour and Epicerie Phnom Penh. Most of these stores stock the typi cal Asian ingredients, sauces and gorgeous leafy vegetables. Thai-Son also has a “deli” counter selling several fried rice and noo dle dishes by the pound, Chinese and Vietnamese barbecued ducks and pork, and Vietnamese sandwiches to go. It’s in this neighborhood that we’ve discovered a great little restaurant that has become our favorite haunt for Vietnamese food. Dakao at 360 Jean-Talon Est is one

of the dozens of eateries in Montreal spe cializing in Pho, the Tonkinese beef soup delicately flavored with cinnamon and clove. Formerly a resident of Ho Chi Minh City, Madame Kim stews beef bones and flank steak for seven hours to make the broth. If you’ve seen the film Tampopo, you know how important broth is to great Asian soup. Kim’s is one of the best we’ve tasted — rich, deep, flavorful but not fatty, perfumed with exotic spices and with an intensity and depth of flavor that could never come from an instant bouil lon cube.

p is eat At a good Pho restaurant like Dakao, the menu usually lists one or two pages of variations on this beef soup: broth with flank steak, with tendon, with brisket, with flank steak and tendon, with beef ball, flank steak, tripe and ten don, etc. Dakao boasts 20 versions. The steak is sliced paper-thin and dropped into the broth raw; the piping hot liquid cooks the meat on the way to your table. Prior to the arrival of the Pho, the server will bring a plate of bean sprouts, lime, sliced carrot, Thai basil and chili peppers. Drop these in the soup and crush to release the flavors. The soup is eaten with both a spoon and chopsticks, and a modest amount of slurping is allowed. Pho is a main course, not an appetizer. A large Pho is huge, and a remarkable bar gain at $5.50 CD. On a deep winter night, nothing warms you better. To put a restaurant to the test, my hus band orders a Pho and I try a Bun, a bowl of rice vermicelli served with a choice of meats. I opt for bits of grilled pork and an

mount of slurping is a llow ed. is given the same attention as a couple or a crowd. Across the street is Pho Cali (1011 StLaurent), another fine purveyor of dreamy soups and noodle dishes. Pho Cali also serves wonderful pork chops, fish and poultry on noodles or rice, along with the 20 variations of Pho. Pho Cali also introduced us to the Vietnamese version of espresso^ a great treat in any season. The coffee cup and stainless-steel drip filter are brought to your table, along with a tall glass of ice if you order cafe glace. Order the drip coffee with sweetened condensed milk, and stir it up from the bottom of the cup before drinking. Yum. Recommended for culinary adventur ers is Cafe Saigon at 1280 St-Andre, near

Imperial Roll. Underneath the noodles, lettuce, bean sprouts, pickled carrots, daikon, cucumbers, watercress or cilantro and chopped peanut are ready to be plucked out with chopsticks or a fork. The deep-fried Imperial Roll provides a crispy, warm contrast to the cool, tart vegetables and the squishy noodles. It’s a riot of fla vors, very filling, and a deal at $6.50 CD. We’ve frequented many Vietnamese restaurants in Chinatown as well. Using our standard of Pho and the grilled vermi celli dish, however, we’ve settled on a cou ple for repeat visits. Pho BaC (1016 StLaurent) has an extensive menu, uses fresh vegetables, has fine broths and a very courteous staff. I’ve stopped alone at Pho Bac several times for a quick bowl of noo dles and found that the lone female diner

the corner with Ste-Catherine Est. The broth is thin and the vegetables are limp, but two people can eat a lot o f food for under $10 CD. Eating well in Montreal means getting off the main drag, and that certainly applies to Vietnamese restaurants. The best spots we’ve found aren’t on Prince Arthur, or in restored Victorians. Nor are they full of antiques and wood paneling. Usually they have dingy windows, and the whole family works in the kitchen or din ing room. Often, though not always, they’re as spotless as Burlington’s Oasis Diner, but these restaurants are definitely urban storefronts. Dakao, for example, is in a basement. The farther you get from the tourists, you see, the closer you get to home — cooking, that is. ©

B y W arren S chultz t was pouring rain — finally — when I sat down to make some phone calls to local water mavens about the drought. All across Chittenden County, water department folks were away from their desks, unable to take my call, not in today. Then it finally hit me: They must have convened in some secret location to perform a rain dance. Unfor tunately, it didn’t rain enough to quench Vermont’s uncharactistically parched soil. When I finally caught up with representatives from three different water districts — the City of Burlington, the Champlain Water District and the City of Montpelier — I found that they had very differ ent takes on what we might call this summer’s H-2-Uh-Oh. The first two districts pump from Lake Champlain, so you might expect their reaction to be similar. Not so. In Burlington, water usage has increased during the drought, but Steve Goodkind, director of Burlington Public Works, doesn’t seem con cerned. “We use Lake Champlain as a water supply, and that’s pretty much an unlim ited source,” he says. “And we’re quite a ways from capacity as far as our pumping and treatment stations. We’re pumping about six million gallons a day, and we’d have to have much more usage than that to cause any problems.” Goodkind said that he’d never discourage conservation. “But if you need to water to keep your lawn looking good, go right ahead,” he says. That’s not the recommenda tion you’d get from the Champ lain Water District, which serves Essex Town, Essex Junction, Shelburne, South Burlington, Williston, Winooski, Milton,

Jericho and most of Colchester. Though they’re pumping from the same lake, this district is tak ing a different approach. Just a few weeks ago, it issued a volun tary water-conservation advisory, asking customers to refrain from watering their lawns.

“ W e ’ re pumping about six ^m illion gallons a day, and } w e ’ d have to have muc more usage than that To cause anv problem s.’ ’ — Steve Goodkind But why worry at all when you’ve got trillions of gallons of water at the end of your hose? Turns out it’s not the water sup ply that’s the limiting factor, it’s the means of getting the water from Point A to Point B, as well as treating it in between. “The intake into the lake has a certain capacity,” says Dick Pratt, assistant general manager of the Champlain Water District. “The pump station has a certain capacity. So does the line to the plant, and the plant itself. Ultimately one of those will be a limiting factor,” he explains. “During a drought the demand may reach more than double our normal demand, and we just aren’t set up to handle [that] for weeks on end.” And therein lies the big dif ference between the Champlain and Burlington districts. “Bur lington built a lot of excess capacity,” Pratt continues, “and they have to pay for it.” In other words, the more

Champlain District’s low-key advisory has had some remark able results. Just by nicely asking folks to refrain from watering their lawns, “We saw an 8 to 10 percent drop during peak usage times,” Pratt notes. “That might amount to saving two to three million gallons per day.” Officials at the Montpelier Water Department are hoping their voluntary water conserva tion advisory will garner similar results. If a call to quit watering lawns, washing cars and filling pools doesn’t result in a decrease, officials will be forced, by law, to issue mandatory restrictions, remarks Allen Chouinard, chief operator of the Montpelier water filtration facility. Montpelier’s water source is Berlin Pond, and “a court order obtained by the town of Berlin says that we have to do certain things when water reaches certain levels,” says Chouinard. It’s meant to ensure that the water level doesn’t drop too low, and

wetlands remain, well, wet. “When the water level reach es 978 feet above sea level — that’s where we are now — we have to institute voluntary con servation measures,” Chouinard adds. “The number that triggers mandatory conservation is 977.5.” He predicts that if the current drought continues, the pond will reach that level by the end of August. Watering lawns or gardens, washing cars and filling pools use a lot of water, for sure. But where does the rest of it go? In Ver mont, about 40 percent goes to domestic use. T he rest is con sumed by industrial, commercial and agricultural facilities. In Chittenden County, a huge piece of the water pie goes to IBM. The Essex Junction plants uses about 4.25 million gallons of water per day. T hat’s nearly 25 percent of all the water pumped and processed by the Champlain Water District. It’s just a million or so gallons less than the daily water demand in Burlington. And its about as much as Rocky Ridge Golf Club in St. George ' uses in an entire season. In fact, it takes about 10 gal lons of water to make a single computer chip — about what a Jersey cow requires daily. A hard working bovine turns two gallons of water into one gallon of milk. That means cows are more effi cient than the brewers at, say, Magic Hat. They produce two gallons of waste water for every gallon of beer brewed. Chickens, though, are the champions of water conservation, requiring only one cup of water per day. And what about us humans? The average person uses 75 to 100 gallons of water daily. A lot of that goes straight down the toilet — literally. Flushing accounts for the single largest domestic use of water. That’s fol

lowed by dishwashing, then showering. Even though most people in Chittenden County have a 6.8 trillion gallon water reservoir to draw from, even though Vice President Dick Cheney thinks conservation is for chumps, and even if it’s raining as you read this, it’s always a good idea to conserve. Especially since it’s so easy to make an impact. Here’s how: • First, don’t even think about watering the lawn. It may look terrible, but “it’s not dead, just dorm ant,” assures Jim Glanville, general manager and head groundskeeper at Rocky Ridge. He oughta know — he’s got acres of parched fairway stretch ing between his irrigated greens and tees. A little bit of sprinkling won’t do a dry lawn much good. Greening up an acre of lawn would require 27,000 gallons of water every week. If you must water your garden, install a drip system or collect water in a rain barrel. • Second, don’t flush unless nec essary. You know the old saying: “If it’s yellow, let it mellow.” (With slogans like that, no won der the conservation movement is floundering.) • Fix the leaks. A running toilet wastes an average of five gallons a day — enough water to keep 20 chickens fully hydrated! Ditto a single dripping faucet at one drop per second. • While you’re at it, turn o ff the faucet. Running the water while brushing your teeth consumes about five gallons of water daily. • Install a low-flow shower head and save up to 17,000 gallons per year. A low-flow toilet can save another 10,000 gallons annually. Reducing the tank capacity with a quart bottle can save eight gallons a day — nearly enough to keep a small cow con tent! ®

he caller said he needed a ride to the Essex ferry. “I’m your man,” I replied. “By the ‘Essex ferry’, you mean the ferry that goes out of Charlotte, correct?” The three Lake Champlain ferries are generally known by the New York towns they go to. It can be surprisingly confusing, so I’ve learned through the years to double-check with the fares to eliminate any ambiguity and missed connections. “I’m sorry, but I’m from out of town, and I just arrived at the airport. I have _ no idea about ‘Charlotte.’ A \ relative is going to meet me at the Essex ferry dock, and h she instructed me to take 1 the ‘Essex ferry.’” “Good enough,” I said. “There’s an information booth right near the luggage belt. I’ll meet you there in 15 minutes. What’s your name?” “George Cameron,” he replied. I was in the airport 10 min utes later. “Under-promise and over deliver” — that’s my busi ness mantra. Scores of people were standing around awaiting their luggage, but no one was at the info booth save the man who staffs it, a diminutive woman and me. This lady was immacu lately attired in a tailored, dovegray pantsuit, with diamonds everywhere, and she had one of those dyed, blow-dried-andsprayed, no-hair-out-of-place coiffures favored by the countryclub woman of means. It appeared that she too was wait ing for something or someone but, clearly, she was not George Cameron. I had the booth guy page my fare, but it was looking increas ingly like a no-show. Maybe George decided to rent a car, I speculated. I was about to cjut my losses and vamoose when the lady turned and spoke to me. “You’re a cab driver, right? Could you possibly take me to the Plattsburgh ferry? My driver hasn’t shown up.” “You bet,” I said. “This is perfect, because my fare didn’t show up. It’s kismet.” “Well, I call it something else,” she said, as I tipped her two bulging bags onto their wheels, and we headed outside to

my taxi. The lady got in the front with me. She sat there beaming and appeared hyper alert. i 1 “I told you it was something more than kismet that brought us together, didn’t I?” “You sure did,” I said. I had a sneaking suspicion where this was headed. “Well, I made a life-long friend three years ago, and he never fails to look out for my welfare. It was Jesus that got me this ride.” Bingo, I thought. Here we g°-

and kept trying to bring me down to his level. I just could not live that way, and I prayed and prayed, until Jesus told me to leave him.” “Really?” I said. “Yes, sir. I have a boyfriend now, from Israel, of all places. He’s 36, much younger than me — I have a daughter who’s 31 — but we’re a match. He’s married also, but not for long. In Dallas, he’s a successful builder and con tractor, and I tell him: ‘Now the two loves of my life are both Jewish carpenters.’” We chatted amiably for the next while, touching upon the sublime and the pro- , fane. Mostly, she spoke and I listened. Soon we had passed the Sandbar State Park and were motoring down the long causeway leading over to South Hero. Boats were out everywhere on this balmy summer day, bob- > bing on the gentle waves. I was beginning to take a shine to this woman. She was so out there, weird and inconsistent in her beliefs and actions. Just keeping up with her story was challenging. It was refreshing to be with her in some odd way I couldn’t quite put my finger on. We arrived at the ferry dock just as they were about to push off. I stepped on it and pulled right up to the big boat. I yelled up at the two ferry people as they were dragging the big chain across the stern, “Room for one more walk-op?” One of the two — a ferrywoman — looked towards her shipmate, nodded at him, then said to me, “Sure, there’s always room for a walk-on.” On my own, it would have taken a few minutes to lug the two heavy bags onto the boat. But with the help of the two deckhands, we had them aboard in a jiffy. The Texan, bubbly as ever, paid the fare, threw in a good tip and scurried up the ramp. In the next moment, the engines stirred to life and the fer ryboat began to move. I looked up, and the lady was energetically waving goodbye to me. She called out, “Jesus loves you!” I smiled back from the win dow of my taxi, placed my palms together in front of my face and bowed my head. I’m not sure where that came from, but at the moment it just felt right. ®

“I spent years trying one thing or another, every kind of self-help seminar, yoga, you name it. Nothing brought me peace. But then I received Jesus Christ into my heart and all my questions were answered.” “Who are you visiting in New York?” I asked in a blatant attempt to change the subject before she really hit high gear. I have complete respect for any one’s spiritual path. Anything in this hard, cruel world that brings you peace and equilibrium, I say, “Glory be, and go for it.” I just have a hard time with any sort of proselytizing. In matters of the spirit, it seems to me, you shouldn’t have to induce anyone, like you’re selling a Buick or something. “My son Jason is competing in an Iron Man race in Lake Placid. I don’t know what hap pened to the driver that he arranged to meet me. Praise the Lord, Jesus took care of that problem.” “You have some kind of Southern accent, I’m guessing.

here’s something important you should know: The tele vision industry is running out of ways to entertain us! I know this because I made the mistake of watching TV this summer with the expectation of being amused, edified, moved or otherwise ennobled by the most influential medium in the history o f civilization. Instead, I wound up watching people eat gross stuff. I’m not kidding. It’s the latest trend in programming. Despite billions in revenue and all the writing, acting and directing tal ent at their disposal, the world’s most powerful broadcast entities have been reduced to making people eat icky things for money. As I spent a recent August evening watching a young woman gag on the buffalo testicle pro truding from her mouth, I found myself reflecting on how such a thing might have come to pass. While she and her challengers squished and retched their way through the gruesome competition, I thought back a couple of years to the debut season of the CBS mega-hit, “Survivor.” Due to the number of reality imitations the program spawned, it’s clear pro ducers the world over were watching along with most of America. The difference, of course, is that producers and TV execs don’t tune in to popular new shows because they want to enjoy themselves like the rest of us. They tune in to see what ele ments are unique to a successful program, then copy them in their own shows as quickly as possible. When the meat-craving cast of “Survivor” took that first bite of rat, it was in effect the chomp heard ’round the world. Around water coolers at the office and over wine coolers after work, it was the talk of the country. Naturally this didn’t go unno ticed by “Survivor” producers themselves. A few weeks into the show’s second season, it became evident that no one in the new cast was about to dig into any thing disgusting without encour agement, so the program’s cre ators had a brainstorm: They replaced the usual weekly chal lenge competition — normally something physically demanding such as an obstacle course — with a deliberately disturbing,

icky-food-based one. Contestants were required to spin a sort of roulette wheel heaped with bugs and slugs. Whatever species they landed on, they had to eat. For sheer visceral viewer reaction, it was probably the high point of the season. I can’t remember who emerged victorious at the end of the second season, but I sure recall every detail of that sick picThen summer arrived. By this time producers from coast to coast had gone into gag-snack overdrive, and the phenomenon was at a peak. No sooner had Tom Green plunged a live rodent down his throat in the big-screen

much as the creators of NBC’s “Fear Factor.” A full third of each hour-long episode is devoted to making players eat gross things. In addition to jumping off build ings, getting smothered by huge snakes or mauled by attack dogs, the young men and women com peting for each episode’s $50,000 prize have had to ingest things that would have been unthink able just a year or two ago. These include martini glasses filled with live worms — the kind with those little gross legs — live jumbo beetles, giant, extracrunchy crickets, the aforemen tioned sausage-like buffalo testes and, my favorite, sheep eyes.

catastrophe Freddy Got Fingered than the small screen became overrun with images of people eating yucky stuff, too. On a given night on “Ripley’s Believe It Or Not,” for example, you might behold the spectacle of a young, seemingly sane man allowing himself to be covered with live scorpions, then placing one after another into his mouth. The creators of “Big Brother 2 ” know a good thing when they rip it off. They recently designed their own putrid food challenge for second-season housemates. First, they asked everyone ro describe his or her dream meal.. Next they provided each contes tant with that meal. Finally, they instructed them to shove the whole shebang into a blender, puree it, chug it and hold it down for a minimum of three minutes. Too bad most Americans don’t bother tuning in to the rel atively low-rated series. They’ll never know what they missed the night Krista forced down a lique fied Extra Value Meal consisting of a hamburger, fries and a filetof-fish sandwich with tartar sauce, only to bring it back up on national TV! Nobody’s gone hog-wild with this wackiness, though, quite as

Three per person! No swallowing food items whole, either; every thing had to be thoroughly chewed, with the clock running. W hat’s next? Entire shows devoted to the swallowing of revolting life forms? When audi ences eventually grow jaded with the spectacle of people eating insects, worms and animal body parts, will broadcasters consider putting small live animals on the menu? Is competitive cannibal ism completely out of the ques tion? W hat about “Downing Doo-Doo for Dollars”? We’ve been scraping the bot tom of the cultural barrel for a while. But until recently, we never resorted to eating the stuff we found there. Food for thought. ® P.S. I lost a bet with my 10year-old son and was forced to promise I ’d write something about his favorite show, “Dragonball Z, ” in my next column. The most painful part wasn’t losing the bet but having to endure an entire episode o f the thing — a slightly more grown-up variation on “Pokemon. ”So here you go, bud. But i f you ask me, “Dragonball Z ” would be a lot more fu n to watch i f its characters had to eat a car toon bug or*worm once in a while.

Dear Cecil, Everyone learns about lightning rods in grade school. There is the heavy-duty kind on skyscrapers that takes the brunt o f bolts and conducts them safely to ground, and the delicate, sharply pointed ones that protect residences by bleeding off elec tric charge and preventing strikes. Having been well-schooled in skepticism by our beloved Cecil, I tried to find a scientific study showing that rods actually ward off lightning, before plunking down dollars. No luck, except for manufacturers marketing propaganda. I ’ve seen a scale-model village success fully protected by tiny lightning rods from a “lightning” machine. But models don’t always scale up to the real world. Do houses with lightning rods actually get hit less often than houses without? — John Glenn@NotTheAstronaut.com

You’re thinking: What a stupid question. Everybody knows lightning rods work. People wouldn’t have gone to all the trouble of putting them on buildings for more than 250 years (lightning rods were initially proposed by Benjamin Franklin in 1749) if there weren’t a sound scien tific basis for them, would they? Well... maybe they would, maybe they wouldn’t. We need to have a little talk. Current U.S. lightning-protection standards are embodied in a document published by the National Fire Protection Association known as NFPA 780. First issued in 1904 and updated periodically since, NFPA 780 codifies the traditional lightning rod installation, in which sharp

ened metal “air terminals” known as Franklin rods are con nected to an earth ground by means of heavy conductors. A lightning bolt strikes a Franklin rod and is carried harm lessly to earth by the grounding apparatus, sparing lives and property. Though technically voluntary, NFPA 780 has been adopted by many local jurisdictions and government agencies and is the de facto national code. Some years ago manufacturers of a new type of light ning rod using what’s called early streamer emission (ESE) technology began agitating for a new NFPA code for their product, which supposedly requires fewer air terminals that can be placed farther apart than the traditional Franklin rods. An ESE terminal, described as looking like “a chrome cantaloupe with a chrome Frisbee around it and a little sharp prong on top and mysterious portholes around the sides,” uses radioactive material to send a stream of ions aloft. This supposedly provides a path for lightning and guides it harmlessly to ground. Most research to date shows that ESEs work no better than Franklin rods and fails to justify the claim that fewer terminals can be used. In 1993 the NFPA declined to approve proposed NFPA 781, which would have set ESE standards and presumably given the ESE industry a shot in the arm. ESE makers sued, claiming NFPA 781 had just as much scientific backing as NFPA 780. In a settlement the NFPA agreed to have ESE technology reevaluated by an outside panel. The panel confirmed that there was no scientific basis for NFPA 781. But guess what, it said, there’s no scientific basis for NFPA 780 (traditional lightning rods) either. NFPA membership voted to approve an updated 780 any way, but the NFPA standards council overruled them and announced its intention to rescind 780 unless somebody could give them good reason not to. While the NFPA wouldn’t come right out and admit it when I called, I sus pect the threat of another lawsuit was in the back of every body’s mind. Proponents of traditional lightning rods freaked. A report from the Federal Interagency Lightning Protection User Group said, in essence, Come on, everybody knows

this stuff works — if you rescind NFPA 780 it’ll be back to the anything-goes days of the 19th century, when lightning rod con artists abounded. But there was an unmistakable air of desperation to the group’s plea. Much of the evidence was from sources like an Iowa state fire marshal’s annual report from the 1920s, which focused on barn fires. After 1950, research largely ceased; people just assumed traditional lightning rods worked. They probably do work, but maybe not as well as was once believed. Critics of 780 point out that lightning remains a largely unpredictable phenomenon, and that rods merely improve your chances rather than offering guaranteed protection, as the old code assumes. (Another beef: The committee in charge of 780 includes too many lightning-rod manufacturers, who have a vested interest in maintaining the status quo.) The NFPA standards council deferred a final decision “to give proponents of NFPA 780 an adequate opportunity to set forth the claimed substantiation for traditional light ning protection systems.” Comments are currently being accepted; the group will decide what to do next at its October meeting. I’m betting the sparks will fly. — CECIL ADAMS

Inside Track continued from page 5a “Election? What election?” cate gory. Bennington College ranked 16th. Bravo! The Review carries the follow ing colorful description of the Bennington College student body. “[We are] a strange mix of people who are very motivated to work hard and others who do nothing but party. Likewise, we are a mix of extremely intelligent people and complete morons... We know how to have a good time, and our horrid ratio (2 to 1 female to male) has made us strong, independent, self-confi dant and intimidating. We are a crazy breed.” Cool. Bennington College also scored fifth in the country for having the worst town-gown rela tions, and 17th in the “Dorms Like Palaces” category. Cushycush. That put it just one spot behind Middlebury College for dorm comfort. Dingleberry also cracked the top 20 in rankings measuring the efficiency of the administration (third) and the quality of the campus library (ninth). There is, after all, a little more to college than hard liquor, pot smoking and partying, right? Fam ou s Vermonters? — On

Monday, Commerce Secretary M o lly Lam be rt and Transportation Secretary Brian Searles were joined by a vaca tioning U.S. Sen. P a tric k Le a h y in rolling out the state’s new online “Vermont Travel Planner.” The idea is that out-of-staters will log on to www. l-800Vermont. com and be so sucked in by the wealth of enticing information they’ll start planning a trip to the Green Mountains pronto. Great idea! However, a check of the site indicates some of the powers that be are still living in the good old days. For example, check out the page that lists “Famous Vermon ters.” Hey, for a little state we’ve got no shortage of famous people. Off the top of our head, here’s a short list. Who wouldn’t want to come and visit the birthplace of Jeezum Jim Jeffords, the man who singlehandedly saved the country from the Texas oilmen? Or how about Ph ish , the world-famous band that started out at Nectar’s on Main Street in Burlington? Bet a lot of hockey fans across North America would enjoy visit ing UVM’s Gutterson Fieldhouse to see where future NHL Hall of Famer John Le C la ir of the Philadelphia Flyers played college hockey. And what about John Irving, the Academy Award-winning Dorset novelist and snob? (Out of staters don’t need to know about his elitist take on Act 60.) Or how about Nobel Peace Prize winner Jo d y W illia m s of Putney? Or B e m ie S an d e rs , the socialist author of the $300 IRS rebate checks Americans just cashed? And last, but not least, Ben Cohen and Jerry Gre e n fie ld the planet’s impresarios of frozen fat?

For fans of the macabre, there’s even executed serial killer Ted Bu n d y, who was born in Burlington — a Lund Home baby put up for adoption.. ^ Hey, were talking famous, folks. But not one of them made the new Web site’s list of “famous” Vermonters. Instead, the powers that be at Tourism and Marketing think out-of staters will be enticed to visit Vermont based on the reputations of the usual array of boring, oldtimers such as Calvin C oolidge, Chester A . Arthur and Warren Austin! Pretty exciting dudes, eh? By the way, Warren Austin was the first U.S. ambassador to the United Nations. A household word? Unfoitunately, the official list of “Famous Vermonters” is a little sloppy. For example, the last entry states, “In 1902, a Burlington doctor was the first person to cross the entire U.S. by car.” Truly an amazing feat, but the state not only omitted the name of this truly famous Vermonter, but screwed up the date of his achievement, too. Dr. Horatio Nelson Jackson departed San Francisco on May 23, 1903. He reached the Atlantic Ocean on July 26, 1903. Jackson’s buried in Burlington’s Lakeview Cemetery with a host of other famous Vermonters who also did n’t make the official “famous” list. Go figure. Tuesday, we contacted S tephanie Carter, deputy com missioner for Tourism and Marketing, with our concerns. Ms. Carter acknowledged that “Famous Vermonters” is “not the best title” lor the Web site list. The state’s list is more one of “historic” figures, she said. Ms. Carter said she greatly appreciated our efforts to expand their list. “That’s exactly what we’re looking lor — feedback,” said Carter. Hey, only here to help.

H um an S o ciety U pdate — We’ve

heard from a lew Burlington Free Press readers struck by the follow ing item on the careers page in last week’s “Business Monday” section: “ Judy P i z z a g a l li has joined the board ol directors ol the Human Society ol Chittenden County.” Most folks we heard from said they’d never heard of the “Human Society ol Chittenden County.” Others wondered why it took this long for Mrs. Pizzagalli to gain admission to a “human” society. Some even wondered if it was an Italian thing? Hardly. It was nothing but a Freeps typographical error — one that has not been corrected. You see, Judy’s joined the board at the Humane Society. You know, the one that looks out for all the little four-legged critters needing a home. According to Humane Society director Susan O ’ K a n e , Mrs. Pizzagalli “has come on like a dynamo. She walks dogs, fundraises and talks us up in the community.” According to O ’Kane, Pizzagalli “is about as human as they get.” That’s a relief.®

M IC H E L L E S H O C K ED , D U B N A T U R A L (Mood Swing, CD) — Go ahead, just try to catego rize Michelle Shocked. Folk? Swing? Blues? Hillbilly? All of the above, as it turns out, ” and now you can add New Orleans-style dub reggae to the mix. Dub Natural is 13 outtakes from the asyet-unreleased Deep Natural, and is mostly instrumental. The discs distribution is limit ed, so your best chance for picking one up is to attend one of her shows. And while Deep Natural, with its glorious vocals, won’t be out until early next year, the dub version should hold us for a few months. “Match Burns Dub” is already getting reg ular radio play, and for good reason. Sassy horns, funky drums and extraordinary organ play tag in a pace-changing musical game. Shocked contributes mysterious, sultry, echo ing vocals that are quite unlike anything heard from her before. She’s now living in New Orleans, and the Crescent City’s influence is apparent on many tracks. While “Can’t Take My Dub” is the most overtly reggae song on the disc, the

vocals feel like something straight outta the gospel tent: “Joy, joy, joy hallelujah/Can’t take my joy from me.” The organ and horns on “House Burns Dub” are spooky and soothing at the same time. “Peach Fuzz” chugs along with big beats, sweet trombone and joyful cries of “Hail, hail, the gang’s all here.” “Fat Brown Snake Dub” will have you dancing around the room in synch with the big drums and cool keyboard parts. There are more gospel/blues vocals in this one, but they’re buried like lost spirits. Someone is belting out “I got some good news,” but it comes out like a whisper. Such a tease! Some instrumental tracks could turn a movie from blase to extraordinary, such as “Why Do I Dub?” and the Al Green-ish “Forget to Dub.” On “DOD Dub” and “Draughts of Dublin,” Shocked takes downand-dirty blues guitar riffs and makes them interesting with something like a recorder. By the end of the latter, a sea of instruments are stirred into a bubbly jambalaya stew. Fiachna O ’Braonian of Hothouse Flowers gets credit for some nice guitar work, while

Sean Dancy (keyboards) and Peter Buck (drums) consistently dazzle. The always irrev erent, never predictable Michelle Shocked brings her gang to Higher Ground this Saturday. Be prepared for anything. Kirt Zimmer

Gretchen Pepper o f Colchester was the winner o f our So M any Roads “Be a Reviewer fo r a D ay” contest. Here’s what she had to say about Sundays show:

' As we arrived at the Champlain Fairgrounds, people were roaming around drinking beer, then a very small shakedown appeared. Ah, Vermont beers for $2.50 a bottle, quesadillas, miner als, glass, T-shirts, even sushi. Whatever your heart could desire at a Rat Dog show. In the back

ground, DJ Logic warmed up the crowd while cops jokingly asked tour kids how much they sold their glass pipes for. “I take dona tions just to get by,” said one ven dor. As Rusted Root came on, we headed into the show. They took the energy up a notch with a per cussion jam that seemed to get the whole place dancing. Towards the end of their set they played “Send Me On My Way” and, as I looked to the west with dusk falling and Mt. Mansfield in the background, I was very happy this show came

FRIDAY, AUGUST 3 1 * $7 AT DOOR

Rhythm & News will return next week

to town. Keller Williams kept the crowd interested with his solo acoustic performance; he even threw in a cover of The Grateful Dead’s “Unbroken Chain.” Finally, out came Bobby and Rob and the rest of the crew. Everyone started to push forward to get closer to this musical icon. Bobby stood there in his Tevas and shorts, belting out classics like “West L.A. Fadeaway” and “Candyman.” He had a little trouble hitting some of the high notes, but he’s been singing for 40 years. Rob

Wassermann went off on a tweaky jam, playing his bass like a violin, with DJ Logic scratching right along. I was mesmerized by Kenny Brooks’ masterful sax. Throughout the evening I kept thinking I would like to spend many more Sunday summer nights like this... W hen the clouds blew in at the end of the evening it seemed that the So Many Roads tour had brought us two things we all needed: great music and rain. —

By Kirt Zimmer rik Filkorn is self-deprecat ing enough to call himself a “flack.” That’s what you call one of those sleazy PR guys who explains why it wasn’t really such a bad oil spill. But here he is, a well-connected Hollywood player, happily chatting about the huge rock ledge and tranquil pond on his remote Richmond property. “We bought this place for the rock,” he says, gazing wistfully at his object of desire. Well, that’s just too sweet to be “spin.” Talk with Filkorn, now 36, about childhood memories and you’ll easily see how he ended up as publicist for Michelle Shocked, among other musical luminaries. He grew up north of San Francisco, just across the street from Jefferson Airplane. It was the kind of neighborhood where you might hear the Grateful Dead playing music on the beach. “I had no idea who they were,” he admits. “I was just playing in the sand.” Filkorn worked around Los Angeles for 15 years, watching while the entertainment industry grew up. His career was launched at the age of 18, when he landed an exciting gig as “T-shirt guy” for Billy Vera and The Beaters. “It got me into shows for free beer,” he notes with a shrug. That led to another dazzling job, as “office guy” for a produc tion company. He worked as cameraman, prop master and even as a character on a show called “On the Air with Roger & Roger.” Filkorn left when the Scientologists in the office started to creep him out. At 19, he ascended to the job of production coordinator for the Cable Music Channel. It

was Ted Turner’s answer to MTV, but after only a month on the air, M TV bought the network and turned it into VH1. Filkorn went on to Canon Films, where he did research for cheesy flicks like Chuck Norris’ Delta Force. Finally, he ended up doing A&R work, searching for the Next Big Thing. “I signed Sarah MacLachlan, and the company folded one week later,” he says. “I shared a Caesar salad with her... L.A. is all about lunch. You’re not doing your job if you’re not bringing people to lunch. At least I was well fed.” After years of getting paid to drink and listen to music — and a few more years of doing PR for acts like Henry Rollins, Aimee Mann, Stevie Wonder, Michelle Shocked, Harry Connick Jr, and Paula Cole — the L.A. scene began t.o wear thin. The place felt mean, dirty and shallow. “I was infamous for saying, ’I’m gonna get out of here,”’ Filkorn says. “It took a while to actually do it.” The spell was broken — or perhaps cast — after a trip to the Vermont home of his girlfriend’s parents. Not long after swim ming in Huntington and eating tomatoes off the vine, he and Otie were married in Vermont; they moved here three years ago. “It’s so much more diverse and so much more real,” he says of Vermont. “It’s a shame it’s so white.” Soon thereafter, Filkorn noticed that his old friend Michelle Shocked was coming to Higher Ground. He called her up and they met at the show. After suing her old label for “slavery,” Shocked and her hus band were managing their own affairs. They asked Filkorn if he

wanted to handle the tour pub licity, and it didn’t take him long to say yes. “The moment I met Michelle, I felt like her co conspirator,” he says. “I go to . . . New Orleans and her husband cooks for us, and it’s like family. She acts like my sister.” Filkorn may need to get some fighting tips from his sur rogate sister. Another of his clients is the American Feder ation of Television & Recording Artists, a union that represents the interests of around 11,000 singers and voiceover talent. AFTRA will soon begin contract negotiations with all the major record labels and most of the independents. With the Internet and scores of other new technologies, Filkorn says bluntly, “There’s a whole new slew of ways that artists can be screwed.” Not all of Filkorn’s clients are based outside Vermont. He also enjoys his work with the Adamant Music School and the Northfield Savings Bank — Filkorn admits the financial insti tution doesn’t exactly match his background, but no matter. For Filkorn, being at the end of a long, dirt road means any thing but isolation. The phone rings, he puts on his headset and chirps away while checking his email. A chickadee peeks in the window from a feeder. An auto graphed photo of George Burns peers down at the action. Otie picks tomatoes in the garden, near that huge rock. It’s just another day at the office for an incredibly grounded flack. ® Michelle Shocked returns to Higher Ground in Winooski this Saturday.

RED MEAT

from the secret files of

upholsterer of the swollen

TAavfteToWA/. corvt

»: V

A R IES

(Mar. 21-Apr. 19): Cut out the following testimonial, Aries. Photocopy it 50 times and hand it to anyone who’s a position to advance your Grand Experiment. Dear Big Shot: It is with unabashed glee that I recommend this hot-blooded self-starter for the jobs o f alligator-wrestler, fireeater, icon-smasher, fun-generator, or CEM (C hief Executive Maverick). Due to a benevolent conspiracy o f astrologi cal influences, this uncanny innovator is currently oozing courage, nerve and a what-the-hell, try-anything-once, hold nothing-back feistiness. I f there’s a task you’re too timid to try yourself assign it to this go-for-broke pioneer.

TAU R U S

(Apr. 20-May 20): I sought out prophecies from a Siberian shaman and a Yaqui bruja and the reincarnated wizard from Atlantis who hangs out in front of the local post office. Amazingly, they all foresaw the same upcoming events: an earthquake in Turkey, Calvin Klein’s arrival in Tajikistan, a new nickname for George W. Bush (“Taliban o f the Environment”) and, last but not least, revolution in Taurus’ love life. All the sages I con sulted are given to hyperbole, of course, so I’m not sure you should start planning quite yet for candle light dinners with long-stemmed roses and Molotov cocktails. But just in case they’re right, why not spruce up your approach to evoking passion in members of your favorite gender?

GEM INI

(May 21-June 20): Just in time for the happy occasion of you coming down to earth, I’ve devel oped a new form of meditation called muditation. The absolutely best way to do it is to meander over to a place where there’s a plentiful source o f rich id; D©€your clotfe«Sr threw«^»u[ self in and roll around. Keep sloshing until you’re purged o f your urges to make too much sense and filled with visions of very practical actions you can take to fulfill your dreams. Also recommended: Chant the mantra “Goo is life!” If this is too extreme for

.................................................................................... your tastes, please at least daub mud on your forehead, cheeks and chin, then fantasize about the practical actions you can take to fulfill your dreams.

C ANCER

(June 21-July 22): In this week’s adventures in chem istry, rash and passionate reds will mix it up with cool and funky blues. Rolling thunder in your soul will either harmonize or clash with the hum o f your heavy mental machin ery. Your best animalistic hormones will begin swirling through you about the same time your control mecha nisms kick into high gear. The result? Worst-case scenario: You act like a beastly bureaucrat. Best-case scenario: You become a sexy, disciplined cata lyst.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): I’m quite proud of my airline barf bag collec tion. Having traveled more than 35,000 miles in the last 15 months, I’ve snagged 37 varieties. Admittedly, most o f them are undistinguished, being little more than unmarked white cqntainers with meek designs. One model stands out above all the rest, however. The gourmet bag offered by the tiny Chiavare airline in Italy is decorated with a robust Salvador Dali-esque logo of a cobra coiled around a tower of clocks. I keep it in a prominent place on my mantel as a symbol of artistry and flair in a field where imagination is virtually nil. I urge you to procure a comparable talisman this week, Leo. It should embody your commitment ijnst bland mediocrity as you express your idiosyncratic genius.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Here are this week’s four homework assignments, Virgo. 1. Draw, paint, sculpt or buy a new mask for yourself that expresses the inner wildness you’re hiding. 2. Fantasize about

calmly telling a previously unspeak able truth to a person who has you tied up in knots. 3. Exercise every day for the next eight days, but only by doing activities that give you pleasure. The rule is that you must not be bored as you move your body. 4. Write a short story about what your life would be like if you were a drag onfly or flamingo or cougar or any animal you love.

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): As a veteran psychonaut who has, without resorting to drugs, explored hundreds of altered states of consciousness in the last 15 years, I believe the follow ing assertion has great credibility: It’s not so terrible to lose your mind (at least temporarily). What’s bad is not capitalizing on it, like by escaping the stunted realities that caused you to lose your mind in the first place; or by exploring surprising emotions that may lead you to the roots o f your future superpowers; or by narrating your life story into a beat-up tape recorder as you sprawl on the floor in a pool of your own tears and then selling the whole beautiful mess to a Hollywood screenwriter. P.S. To be frank, neither sanity nor insanity are all they’re cracked up to be. I prefer postsanity myself. Care to join me?

SCORPIO

(Oct. 23-Nov. 21): By no mqms do I listen to all the voices in my head. Some have hidden agendas they’re expert at dis guising, and others are too influenced by my irrational fears to be trusted. There is, however, a certain inner voice that never fails me. It sounds like a woman in her forties. I can hear her only if I turn down the vol ume o f the mass media echoing in my brain, and only if I am clear that what was true for me in the past may no longer be true now. As I woke up this morning, this cagey sibyl spoke.

“Tell Scorpios,” she murmured, “that it’s an excellent time to tune in to the soft-spoken voice in their heads that gives advice about how to gain power over themselves, not over other peo ple.”

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I predict that in the next four weeks, your supposed “trag ic flaw” will lose fully one-third o f its power to sabotage you. Your skill at distinguishing between authentic truth-telling and flowery bullshit will be growing at a rapid rate. Your vices will become both more interesting and forgivable. You’ll develop a perky willingness to do the half-right thing when it’s downright impossible to do the totally right thing. Finally, you will steadily expand your capacity to receive nourishing surprises. I only hope, Sagittarius, that you can deal with such absurd abundance.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): In another 2100 years, the Age of Capricorn will begin. If you’ve been able to prolong your life through nanotechnology and immor tality drugs, you’ll feel perfectly at home in the world at that time. In the meantime, though, you should maybe get acclimated to the peculiar institutions o f the Age of Aquarius. Let’s start with channeling. In your case, it would be a mistake to try to access, say, a 10,000-year old warrior from the 13th dimension. So let’s go with something earthier. Try channel ing in the spirits of Captain James Cook and Ferdinand Magellan. They might inspire you to take maximum'y advantage of all the exploratory ener gy that’ll be available to you in the coming weeks.

AQU ARIU S

(Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The divine omens decree that something resembling a wedding

should now take place in your life. This doesn’t necessarily mean a trip to the altar. You Jcould just as well marry your fortunes to a new business part nership or a good long-term gamble or a stuffed animal you’ll really be able to rely on. The gods ask only that you commit yourself to a union that’s more dynamic and disciplined than you’ve ever been able to pull off.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): For years I’ve made regular trips on Highway 101 in my home county of Marin, California. As familiar as this corridor is, there’s one landmark in the town o f Larkspur that never fails to pique my love o f mystery. It’s a small drawbridge over a lagoon about a hundred yards east o f the road. What makes it unusual is that the movable section of the span is always pointed straight up. Never once have I seen any traffic pass over it. And yet in my dream last night, the impossi ble had happened: The two sections o f the Larkspur bridge were connect ed. What’s more, seven o f my best Piscean friends were striding tri umphantly across it. I believe this is a prophecy concerning your imminent future: A passage has opened up between two parts o f your life that have never before been linked.
