I recently read an article in U.K. Guardian newspaper... I was horri fied to read that in 1983 the Reagan administration had intelli gence reports of almost daily use of chemical weapons by Iraq, and that despite this knowledge, dozens of biological agents, including various strains of anthrax, had been shipped to Iraq by U.S. companies under license from the commerce department. During this period Mr. Rums feld was President Reagans Middle East troubleshooter. The same Rumsfeld, as defense secretary in the current Bush Administration, is denouncing Iraq for its past use of chemical weapons. A look at the other members of the Bush team who are pushing for war shows: George W. Bush, 197884: senior executive, Arbusto Energy/Bush Exploitation, an oil company; 1986-90: senior execu tive of the Harken oil company. Dick Cheney, 1995-2000: chief executive of the Halliburton oil company. Condoleezza Rice, 19912000: senior executive with Chev ron oil company. Saddam sits on the second biggest oilfield in the world. There can be few people who need convincing that the world would be a better place without

Saddam Hussein, but he is not the only evil dictator in the world, and not the only one with weapons of mass destruction. No connection has been established between Iraq and the tragedy of Sept 11. Why are we on the brink of war with Iraq? Is it because of unscrupulous past foreign policy and oil? As the massive worldwide antiwar protests [“Peace Work,” Feb. 19] and the U.N. debate show, the Bush administration has not made a con vincing case for war at this time.

dates to appeal to a large enough segment of the public in order to win elections.” Perhaps he should spend less time playing games with voters, and more time taking prin cipled stands on issues important to people. Has this “political scien tist” ever heard of Bernie Sanders or Patrick Leahy? For his grand finale, Gierzsynski uses ever more mysterious reason ing to insult voters dissatisfied with unacceptable moderate Democrat candidates by calling them spoilers. All this wisdom from an “expert” whose base of support is the College Democrat Club.

I am always amused when the comedy routine called Tony Gierzsynski hits the pages of the Vermont press [“Letters,” Feb. 19]. Are they giving away Ph.Ds these days, or just Democratic house nominations? Gierzsynski claims that surveys “show that the U.S. public is more conservative than liberal.” Yet poll after poll demonstrates widespread majority support for “liberal” issues like universal health care, strength ened Social Security and environ mental protection. Gierzsynski moans that liberal Democrats and Progressives don’t see the need “for moderate candi

ARTISTIC FREEDOM

Jason Wartsbaugh [“Letters,” Feb. 12] accusing anyone who discusses the causes of 9/11 of having forgot ten what happened on that date is preposterous. His idea that he knows more about an artists intent than the artist himself is similarly absurd. And to accuse Dug Nap — a creator of primitive art — of provincialism belies reason. His fur ther assertion that my letter defend ing an artists freedom of expression distances us from the horror of the event is equally obtuse. Ironically, he would rather we distance the tragedy from ourselves by blindly

PLAN B

tal dictator that we don’t like. (As opposed to the brutal dictators thai we’ve been more than happy to support.) But blowing a place to pieces and killing lots and lots of people has never been a very effec tive marketing technique for the charms of the American Way (wit ness Vietnam). I suggest that President Bush save face now by secretly dropping this whole bomb-Iraq hobby, and instead redirecting the entire $548 billion (wow!) Pentagon budget to

This could be achieved through an elab orate offshore money-laundering scheme, involving top Pentagon officials, a Swiss bank or two, and a remote island (preferably tropical, with good beaches and golf cours es). A carefully timed leak to the press could expose the plan, setting up Donald Rumsfeld to be the fall guy. George Bush could aggressive ly denounce Rumsfeld as a betrayer

WHY BURLINGTON?

It is too bad about the housing shortage and also a hard time to find a place to live in Burlington. There are a lot of reasons why I would want to live in Burlington instead of Rutland... The crowds in Nectars and Club Metronome were so much more supportive of my musical tal ent than crowds are in Rutland. Burlington crowds are more open to original music than they are in Rutland. There are far more opportuni ties in Burlington musical-wise and otherwise than in Rutland. If a per son tries hard at pursuing his

dreams in Burlington, he will get somewhere. Seven Days nas been decent enough to do nice but honest reviews on everything that I sent them, where the Rutland media snub me. When I was up there visiting for a few days I had such a great time, and met so many open-minded people, and loved the nightlife, that it was devastating when it was time to go back to Rutland... Your radio stations are far better than the ones in Rudand. I can see why it is hard to find a place to live in Burlington because it is such a great place to live... [and] one of the best places in the East for an aspiring musi cian like myself to achieve his goals. Every time I go up to Burlington to visit or play a gig, I have so much fun that I hate to leave. All I can say is, hats off to a great city and such open-minded people. I would love to call Burlington my home. Johnny Azer RUTLAND

lexander the Great did it. So did the . Mongols, the Sumerians, the Persians, the Arabs and even the British. In fact, Iraq is one of the most conquered places on Earth. Now it’s George W. Bushs turn. Isn’t this exciting? Aren’t you proud to be an American? It used to be said during the 19thcentury reign of Queen Victoria that the sun never set on the Union Jack, the British flag. Today in the 21st century, it can be said that the sun never sets on the American flag, a burning American flag, that is. Everyday, on every continent, Old Glory is set ablaze. This is not a real good sign, folks. For weeks, yours truly’s been humming an old prophetic tune from the 1960s by patriot and folksinger Phil Ochs. It’s called “Cops of the World.” Our boots are needing a shine, boys Boots are needing a shine But our Coca-Cola is fine, boys Coca-Cola is fine. We’ll spit through the streets o f the cities we wreck. We’llfin d you a leader that you can’t elect. Those treaties we signed were a pain in the neck, ’Cause we're the cops o f the world, boys, We’re the cops o f the world With King Bush II on the throne, America has quickly turned into the most despised nation on Earth. What’s the say ing — there are two superpowers left: the United States and world public opinion? First, you’ll recall, Dubya’s stated reason for his Iraq fixation was to rid Saddam H ussein of his “weapons of mass destruc• » tion. Then we were told by George the Great that it’s really about “regime change.” Saddam must go! And then, last week, reversing his earlier stated opposition to Bill Clinton’s foreign policy, King Bush II told us it is, after all, all about “nation-building.” The purpose of this mad enterprise is to bring democracy to a culture and country that has never known it. And if we have to slaughter thousands of civilians to make them free, so be it. When we butchered your sons, boys When we butchered your sons Have a stick o f our gum, boys Have a stick o f our bubble-gum. We own half the world, Oh, say can you see? And the name o f our prophet is democracy. So like it or not you will have to befree, free, free! ‘Cause were the cops o f the world, boy We’re the cops o f the world. The hanging chads of Florida pale in comparison to the Hanging Gardens of King Nebuchadnezzar II (604-562 B.C.). This is the Fertile Crescent. The cra dle of civilization. The biblical setting for the Garden of Eden. Every true conqueror worth his salt has conquered the land now called Iraq.

But what happened to our democracy, eh? King Bush II has rammed through dra conian police-state-style laws that have gut ted our Bill of Rights. Big Brother has risen from the ashes of communism and rein vented himself as the Prince of Homeland Security. Good lord. And King Bush II has unilaterally changed the essence of American foreign policy. Negotiation is out. Domination is in. We will invade any country, any time, for any reason. We possess more weapons of mass destruction than the rest of the world combined and we are not afraid to use them. The 21st century, in the view of our ruler, will be the age of the American Empire!

"I’ve eaten crab cakes from Maine to M aryland-and yours are the best yeti”

Clean the johns with a rag, boys Clean the johns with a rag. If you like you can use your flag, boys If you like you can use your flag. We’ve got too much money, we’re look ing for toys, And guns will be guns and boys will be boys, But we’ll gladly pay for all we destroy ’Cause we’re the cops of the world, boys We’re the cops o f the world.

— Anthony, Greenwich, C T [comment card quote]

The way things are going, anyone who dares utter the words of Patrick Henry — “Give me liberty or give me death” — will be considered unpatriotic. Our "Hijacked Democracy" — A mod ern-day Oracle of Delphi spoke at the Statehouse Saturday. Her name is Arianna H uffington. She’s an elegant and sexy 52year-old Greek redhead with the wisdom of Socrates and the wit of Robin Williams. “I was born in Athens, Greece,” said Arianna. “You know, we gave you democ racy and you’ve screwed it up.” She was educated in England at Cam bridge University where she was president of the debating society. No dyed-in-thewool left-winger was she. Arianna’s first book was a stunning rebuttal of the femi nist movement. Yes, the lady has come a long, long way. By the early 1990s, she was the wife of a billionaire Republican congressman, Michael H uffington and a confidante of GOP Speaker Newt Gingrich. Arianna has since evolved into a fire-breathing god dess of truth and justice. American democracy, she said, has been “hijacked” by an upper crust of crooked and greedy corporate thieves.

who robbed a bank in Port Royal, Virginia, stuffed the money in his pockets, but as he fled, $100 bills fell out. When he reached his getaway car, he found he had locked the keys inside and tried to break the window with a log. When he failed, he huried the log at a pickup truck parked nearby. The pickups owner, Emmett Lowe, saw the incident from inside his store and con fronted the man, not knowing of the robbery. After a short conversation, Lowe returned to his store, where bank tellers, who had witnessed the confrontation, called to tell him that the man had just robbed them.

t’s looking more and more like Governor Jim Douglas has stolen a few pages from George W. Bush’s political playbook. Like the president, Douglas ran for office trying to hug the middle of the political road. Once elected, however — and once again like Bush — Vermont’s governor is using his honeymoon period to make a hard turn to the right. To understand Douglas’ true politi cal intentions, all Vermonters have to do is follow the money. It’s true that the governor inherited a messy eco nomic situation, thanks in part to his buddy in the W hite House and his predecessor now aiming for that same job. But his budget priorities nonethe less provide a clear ideological snap shot: dramatic cuts in programs on the environment, arts and education and funding increases for commerce and the business community. Historically, Republicans have gotten a sinister kick out of bad economic times, which provide them with political cover while they take aim at the govern mental programs they despise. Reagan used the inflationary period of the 1980s to dismantle social programs; Bush is using today’s tough economy to strangle social and environmental programs while miraculously finding enough government money for the military and business incentives. And he has the audacity to propose huge tax cuts for the wealthiest citizens. Douglas seems cut from the same cloth. Consider what he is proposing for the Agency of Natural Resources. Doug las was fairly honest about his hostility toward the ANR during his campaign — particularly for its oversight of the state’s most notorious development law, Act 250. But his proposal to cut nearly 10 percent of the agency’s budget still took many by surprise. Compare that to the 2 percent increase granted to the Agency of Commerce. “The Governor campaigned on a plat form to overhaul the ANR’s permitting process,” says Senator Susan Bartlett, chair of the Senate’s Appropriations Committee. “But I don’t know how he’s going to accomplish that by cutting the agency’s budget by 10 percent. It doesn’t add up.” John Brabant, an environmental analyst with ANR since 1988, agrees with Bartlett. “They’ve been starving this agency for years, running the good people out and leaving positions unfilled,” he told Seven Days. “We can’t enforce the laws and do the necessary work at our current levels. Douglas’ cuts will only speed up our death spiral.” The governor’s disdain for the ANR apparently made it difficult for him to fill important positions within the agency. After the election, he turned to Elizabeth McLain, a former deputy secre tary o f the ANR, to help him find candi dates for commissionerships and the sec retary slot. ' .

“It’s not easy finding Republicans who went to college to save the environ ment,” one administration official told Seven Days on condition of anonymity. “And it’s not real enticing to take a pay cut in order to run a state agency with a bull’s-eye on its back.” McLain’s search for a secretary of the ANR eventually ended when she was persuaded to take the job herself. Ad ministration insiders say McLain wasn’t thrilled to discover how little freedom she had in selecting commissioners for departments that operate within ANR’s domain: environmental conservation, parks and recreation, and fish and wildlife. The Douglas team had a heavy hand, for example, in the controversial appointment of Jeffrey Wennberg to head the Department of Environmental Conservation. Endorsed by a curiously compliant Senate Natural Resources Committee last week, Wennberg’s selec tion drew the ire of environmentalists and provided yet another ideological benchmark for the new powers-that-be • in Montpelier. Wennberg hasn’t been shy about tak ing sides in the environment vs. develop ment debate. He once dismissed Act 250 — the law his department is sworn to uphold — as nothing but an “environ mental juggernaut.” When his appoint ment was announced, and challenged, Douglas was hard pressed to defend the former Rutland mayor’s environmental resume. The best he came up with was a “recycling ordinance,” among a few other equally bland eco-accomplishments. Many see Wennberg as Vermont’s version of Christine Todd W hitm an, the former Republican governor of New Jersey who was called in to obedi ently run the Environmental Protec tion Agency as the Bush administration undermined its mission and squeezed its budget. W hitm an has had to smile and defend attacks on clean air, clean water and global warming initiatives. Wennberg is being called upon to do much the same with Act 250. In an appearance before Bartlett’s Appropriations Committee last week, Wennberg didn’t seem bothered by the dramatic budget cuts or the elimination of six employees. He played the good soldier and put the best spin on his odd predicament: to produce more work with fewer funds and people. “The cuts to our budget only reflect the economic realities of the state,” Wennberg told Seven Days. “If I thought I was going to be overseeing the disman tling o f the department, I wouldn’t have taken the job.” Senator Bartlett isn’t buying it, though. “Unfortunately, it’s an old trick,” she says. “You bleed the agencies you don’t like.” ®

THE PUZZLE: As you can guessfrom her name, Fickle Fannie is hard to pre dict. Her preferences change from one week to the next. This week, as always, the things she likes (shown in CAPITAL letters) allfollow a secret rule. Can you figure out what it is? (Note: Fickle Fannie likes words. But each week she likes something different about them— how they’re spelled, how they sound, how they look, what they mean, or what’s inside them.)

(

Read the directions to the puzzle before relegating yourself to STUPIDITY. When asked to elope, smoke dope, or be tied up with rope, Fannie says NOPE. She ordered an AB CONTROLLER to flatten her stomach, and her dog humped it. Everything she has ordered from catalogs was DEFECTIVE, including an ant farm. On a whim she flew to Amsterdam on KLM, intending to work in the red light district. Her plane was HIJACKED by fanatical monarchists wielding makeup applicators. In case you're interested, Lorenzo GHIBERTI is Fannie's favorite Florentine sculptor. In high school the guys called Fannie STUCK-UP because she only dated non-jocks. She is known for DEFTLY avoiding tense situations, such as a first kiss. For escape she often flies to the island of TUVALU in the South Pacific.

Email me with feedback and questions: dd44art@aol.com. Difficulty rating for this puzzle: EASY. I f you’re stuck, see the H I N T printed sideways on this page. I f you cave, see the A N SW E R on page 12a. So much for Fickle Fannie’s tastes this week. Next week she’l l have a whole new set o f likes and dislikes.

hat is it about this Iraqi war that just won’t get off the ground? Last week, oil prices rose to their highest level since Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1990, and still the press talks about a “possible” or “proba ble” or “seemingly inevitable” attack. It may not be “about the oil,” as many think, but it will be if the Bushmen don’t get moving. The New York Times reports, “Every time that oil prices have risen by at least 60 per cent since World War II, a recession has occurred in the United States.” We’ve hit 69 percent so far this year. “It’s just reached the stage where it can’t

longer the issue — it’s “democracy” we want for Iraq! Like the democracy that allowed even the Turkish parliament, bribed to the gills, to reject a measure that would have allowed U.S. troops on Turkish soil to invade Iraq from the north. Even through the muck of money, threats and favors, it appears, 95 percent of the Turkish people are against this war, and that’s high even by local standards. The miraculous capture of al-Qaeda operative and “9/11 mastermind” Khalid Shaikh Mohs imed — in Pakistan, of all places, o ".e of the UN Security Council’s “undecided” votes on Iraq! — was followed by assurances that Mohammed won’t be brought to the United States for interroga tion.

(2) Research. This is what you’re asking about. One of the original arguments for the manned space program was that in microgravity astronauts would be able to grow purer crystals and such. Many scientists now doubt the effort is worth the trouble. In 1998 the American Society for Cell Biology declared, “Most of [NASA’s space-based life science research] is driven by the need to make use of the engineer ing temple called the International Space Station (ISS)” — that is, NASA didn’t develop the ISS to do experiments, it dreamed up the experiments to justify the ISS. Space is an extremely difficult environment in which to do research, the ASCB said. Space studies to date have shown that biological processes are largely unaffected by microgravity. Most bio logical research can be conducted more effectively on the ground. “Areas of research such as protein crystallization, drug design and basic animal and plant cell and develop mental biology can not be used to justify a space mission, ’ the ASCB concluded.

f you don’t like the weather in Vermont, just wait a minute. In winter that old maxim has special meaning for David Gomez, whose every waking hour is guided by the whims of Mother Nature. Even his sleep may be sacrificed to the fickle cli mate. As a sidewalk plow operator for the Burlington Department of Public Works, the 44-year-old Essex Junction resident is permanently on call in case it snows. But Gomez, who is unmarried, really doesn’t mind if his routine is disrupted ________________________ _ by the vagaries of precipitation. After David Gomez almost two years on the job, he takes Sidewalk Plow Operator pride in keePing the pavement passable „ !• . _ . along his route in the Hill Section and Burlington Public Works Dept. r f _ . _. South End or the city. The burly Gomez is master of his machinery — a rugged one-seat orange vehi cle that serves as a plow when it snows and a sweeper when sidewalks are dry and dusty in the warmer months. He’s also frequently on pothole-filling duty in the spring and summer. You might not think of smooth outdoor surfaces as a matter of civic order. But Gomez does.

SEVEN DAYS: First of all, do you go by David or Dave?

DAVID GOMEZ: Everyone here calls me Diamond. SD: Diamond?

DG: (Laughing) The guys just think I sparkle out there. SD: Sounds like a stamp of approval. Why is the job so appealing?

DG: The work is steady, I always get paid and I’m part of something. I belong. When problems arise, you’ve got your “first responders” — like firefight ers and police — and then you’ve got us. Without us, the city stops. SD: I never thought of it that way. But does th e labor ever become arduous?

DG: Yes. It’s hard dealing with snow banks when the temperature dips to 10 below. Last winter was a cakewalk. This year has been tough on the workers, on the equipment, on the budget and on the citizens.

honeycombs the ice, which then becomes easier to clean. SD: What are th e hazards?

DG: The key is knowing where the fences and hydrants are located. And you have to watch for people popping out of doorways or cars pulling out of driveways. Last year, I hit a manhole cover on Willard Street and it shot me into a parked car. Luckily, it was minor damage. SD: And you literally have to be available no m atter w hat, w h en ev er there's new snow?

DG: That’s right. We have pagers. Nights, weekends, holidays. We’re on diesel fuel — a Holder, that’s who allowed to leave town on vacations, makes them. There are three types of weather permitting. You don’t plan any attachments: I use a V-blade on it to thing* The days sort of all run into each blast a path through the snow. A blower other. A small storm might last a long isn’t as fast, but it carves through even time and we have to keep staying with deeper snow. A straight blade is for it. It takes a miracle of management to scraping up the ice. People comment organize all this. I have three great boss that the sidewalks are safer now — that’s es: Dan Hill, Steve Hamman and Pam because of all the straight blades we got Tuttle. They’ve been instrumental in this year. Before, we only had one; now helping me learn. there are enough for all eight or nine sidewalk plows. SD: What were your previous occu pations? SD: How do you coordinate w ith th e street plows?

DG: You name it.

DG: The sidewalk crews go out after the main plows do their thing. They start with priority routes where there’s more traffic, then secondary side streets or dead ends. We’re like the broom and dust pan following in their tracks. During rush hour, it can be a challenge to get our routes done within seven or eight hours. Otherwise, when we can travel on the sidewalks, four or five hours is usually enough time.

SD: Well, begin at th e b egin n in g. W hile growing up in Essex Junction, w here did you en vision life would take you?

SD: Explain th e plow ing process.

SD: Severe cold m ust m ake it trickier.

DG: There are seven different routes, with one person per machine. They make violent motions — we try not to eat too much before going out. But it’s a beautiful piece of equipment that runs

DG: Absolutely. If the ice hardens, it’s next to impossible to get the sidewalk completely clear. But we work with nature. The sun heats up the sand-salt combination we put down and that

SD: What UVM courses did you take?

DG: Math. I was trying to get ready for architectural studies. IBM offered me a full-time job, but I’d set my sights on college, so there was a big move to leave the state. SD: What do you mean?

DG: I attended the Boston Architectural Center from 1983 to 1989. My goal was to be a builder. I did production draft ing at an architecture firm by day and took five courses at night. It was a hard school, a good school, an impossible school. I still wasn’t an academic person. I come from a blue-collar background; it was tough for me to enter a white-collar world. Another factor was that I had been trained as a manual drafter, but it was the advent of computers. SD: Did you fin ish ?

DG: I was about half-way through when I came home. I’d gotten myself in a deep hole financially. In Vermont, I worked for other architects. Then I went down tp Florida in the early 1990s. I did drafting for a cabinet company until Hurricane Andrew blew in and the local economy was destroyed. SD: What cam e next?

DG: I thought about going into the mil itary. My father had been an Army sergeant and some of my uncles-were in the Marines. But Dad pushed me to go to college. After graduating high school in 1976, I worked in manufacturing at Rossignol skis for a few years. Then I had a stint at IBM as an intern in facility maintenance. At that time, I took cours es with University of Vermont Contin uing Ed. I’d never been a stellar student, though. As a teenager, I was really only good at racing around in my car.

DG: My dad had a few strokes, so I came back to help out. I delivered oil, did auto mechanics, returned to manu facturing at Blodgett ovens. I was really floundering, in terms of my professional life. I’d lost my focus. Then I saw the DPW ad. In my architectural days, I was never the one who did hands-on stuff. But I always had a fascination with heavy equipment. This is the most suit able career for on-the-job training because, when they hire you, a good work ethic is more important than skills. SD: You fou n d your sparkle here?

DG: It’s the kind of work I always wanted. SD: In w hat sense?

DG: To be needed. ®

powerful lobbyists who run it have gamed the system to encourage corruption. “Greed has always existed,” said Arianna. “Were not going to eliminate greed. But right now greed is flourishing.” P.S. Saturday’s visit to Vermont wasn’t Arianna’s first. She told Seven Days that Vermont is the first place she landed in America. The year was 1967 and Arianna Stassinopolous was a Greek high-school student partic ipating in an exchange program run by the Brattleboro-based Experiment in International Living.

favorite presidential hopeful did another nice job on CBS’s “Face the Nation” on Sunday. Iraq is not an imminent threat to the United States while North Korea is, said Howard Dean. And Howard is not in favor of tortur ing al-Qaeda prisoners. Good for him, torture has too many fans these days in our mad, mad, mad, mad world. The fact is, candidate Howard Dean has reached a key plateau in his personal quest to climb Mr. Everest. He’s gone from “obscure longshot” to “significant player.” His position on the conquest of Iraq has put him in the national spotlight. It’s won him admirers and contributors and a growing list of enemies. Recently Rep. Tom Delay, the GOP “Hammer” in the House, lashed out at Ho-Ho for criticiz ing Dubya on Iraq. Delay accused Dean of supporting “appeasement.” That’s a word from the 1930s that refers to the British/American acceptance of Adolph H itler’s expanding Third Reich. But Saddam Hussein is hardly in expansion mode. He’s sur rounded by powerful enemies and his sky is filled with U.S. and British warplanes. No matter how many times American TV replays the video of Saddam waving that long sword or firing that rifle into the air, he’s hardly a threat to the world’s only superpower located 6000 miles away. Tom Delay is not the only Dean critic out there. “Roll Call” columnist Stuart Rothenberg recently highlighted Ho-Ho’s New York City roots. “In style, he’s like a freight train,” wrote Rothenberg. “Confident to the point that some people will see arrogance,

and so certain about his prescrip, tions that many will regard him as inflexible, Dean will need to overcome the fact that voters prefer their presidents to be likable, empathetic, even charming. Instead, he almost appears angry.” Yeah, yeah, sure. New Yorkers, by nature, are a little pushy. C’mon, Stu, everybody knows that. Ever try to catch a cab at rush hour? Dr. Dean has been kicking his Capitol Hill opponents in the shins for weeks, and we’re told they’ve just about had it with the little guy from Vermont. Time to return fire. Some have noted that Dean “sheepishly” signed Vermont’s landmark civil-unions law in pri vate, while today he wears its pas sage like a badge of courage. And others are even citing his refusal to support medical mari juana as a black mark against him. All of this, of course, is to be expected. Ho-Ho has clearly arrived. He’s in rhe ring. Last fighter standing wins the Democratic nomination. On Tuesday, Dean spoke at noon to a stahding-room-only crowd of more than 400 twentysomethings — mostly congres sional staffers — at a Capitol Hill eatery. Dean was introduced by U.S. Sens. Patrick Leahy and Jim Jeffords. Our sources say the crowd went totally nuts. This coming Sunday at 9 a.m., candidate Dean slides into the hot seat on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” with Tim Russert play ing the Grand Inquisitor. Should be worth a look. Upper-Class Tiff — Whoa!

Don’t you just hate to see mil lionaire Republicans fighting amongst themselves? The sordid snit erupted on the pages of The New York Times last week. On one side was the Manchester Education Fund. On the other — Vermont’s Repub lican National Committeeman Skip Vallee.

You see, upscale Manchester, like about two dozen other gold towns, set up its own private, off-the-tax-rolls fundraising scheme to circumvent Act 60’s sharing po'ol. The effort raises $2.4 million annually. It’s a way to keep Manchester dollars in Man-chester. Sharing their wealth with the children of the unwashed is an unacceptable concept. To pressure local residents and businesses to contribute, the Manchester School Fund publish es the names of “voluntary” donors in the local paper. And word-of-mouth effectively lets folks know who isn’t making their “voluntary” contribution. Businesses that cave in to the shakedown get a nice sticker to put in their front window. It’s not hard to notice which businesses lack stickers. According to the Times, “This year’s number-one shamed per son” was Skip Vallee, a wealthy out-of-town businessman who owns the Maplefields chain of

In Norwich author Jessica Shattuck’s witty and The Hazards of wonderful first novel, The Hazards o f Good Good Breeding, Breeding, the Dunlaps are experiencing by Jessica growing pains — some holding onto their Shattuck. WASPdom for dear life, others trying to WW Norton & Company, shuck it off like last seasons cocktail dress. 288 pages. Shattuck leads us across the landscape of $23.95. Boston’s languishing Brahmin aristocracy — a world of cotillions and country hous es, prep-school privilege and membership to exclusive golf and tennis clubs. But for all their Ivy League educations, fancy-pants connections and old money, the Dunlaps are finding that “bucking up” and keeping a stiff upper lip is not the most fulfilling

lysterious papier-mdche model he keeps idden in his room. ._) r. babysitter who had held things together at the old Concord house has been inexplica bly fired. All around her, the members of Caroline’s family are acting increasingly peculiar and disconnected. Take her father Jack. Known as a man who “likes to drink bourbon straight and climb mountains in torrential downpours without complaining,” he spends the wee hours of most nights building intricate Revolutionary War dioramas in the base ment. He also raises sleek and exuberant blue heelers — dogs descended from the first of their kind in America and no doubt listed in some elitist breeder’s dossier. Jack rambles around the “opulent decrepitude” of his house — the Dunlaps are all about owning property and not spending the fam ily money — busying himself and ignoring the fact that his little son Eliot, without the proper guidance and love of his parents, is escaping deeper and deeper inside himself.

Caroline, freshly minted from Harvard, returns home to find her family fraying noticeably around the edges. Her once privileged and protected world is now a messy, confusing one.

Caroline, freshly minted from Harvard, returns home to find her family fraying noticeably around the edges. Her once privileged and protected world is now a messy, confusing one, with divorced par ents, an emotionally undone mother liv ing her “own life” in Manhattan, and a lit tle brother whose best companion is a

Then there’s Faith, Jack’s ex-wife, who’s still recuperating from her “rest” at McLean’s — the famous mental hospital that has housed the likes of Sylvia Plath and James Taylor. Faith can hardly hold it together amongst her sturdy, preppy, mar ried friends, let alone muster the “confi dence to hug her own 10-year-old son.” Caroline is sandwiched between Eliot — “the dregs of his parents’ conjugal activities” — and the twins, known best for their boyish pranks at prep school. Back home after graduation, she discovers

Halvorson's Upstreet Cafe 16 Church St., Burlington, 658-0278 A family-owned restaurant with a long history, Halvorson's has kept upper Church Street fed for more than 20 years. Inside the small, relaxed eating area, small tables and low lighting create a nice ambiance for catching a burger and fries. The big treat, however, is the large, partially enclosed patio out back. During the summer months, the ivy-covered walls and spacious seating offer a perfect hideaway from the shopping hordes. Local legend Big Joe Burrell blows blues and jazz each Thursday. In the summer, local and regional bands rock the weekend nights away. Expect a small cover charge at the door.

SEVENDAYS I march 05-12, 2003 I music 37A

review th is 3RDA, THINGS DON'T MATTER (Self-released, CD) After some membership adjustments last year, Burlington-based JRDA now finds itself poised "to march forward in their plan for world domination." The current lineup is Aaron Cowan (lead guitar), Jesse Cowan (bass, vocals), Mike Gaito (vocals, guitar) and Dan Bailey (drums). JRDA offer up their first EP, things d o n 't m atter, recorded last December. The quartet invented the word "progresso" to describe their sound, a "hard-edged music with a sense of humor... melding progressive rock, jazz, classic rock and classical, a quirky fusion" that "spans from the absurd to the pro found." The production is clean — maybe too clean. The band illustrates a fine sense of composition, but the music doesn't really ever suggest the absurd or the profound. The tunes deliver a number of intricate changes and fast notation, but any sense of "hard edge" here is quelled by Gaito's droning and sustained vocals about feelings of emptiness and moments of elation.

RANDY GAETANO

JOHNNY AZER, THE GLORY YEARS (Self-released, CD) With The Glory Years, Nyte Owlz drummer Johnny Azer returns with his second solo disc, a driving record of glammed-up rock and jangly pop. Though a bit over the top with lighter-waving, power-ballad material, the album is hands-down Azer's best to date. Where the Nyte Owlz' last outing, M yths & Legends, suffered from lackluster production, Azer's effort sparkles with a crystalline mix. He also sounds strong vocally, pack ing each note with a dizzying amount of heart-onsleeve emotion. The Rutland native croons like a Bono reared on 70s rock on tunes like "Worship From Afar" and "No One Seems." Album closer "Heart Could Hear Me," a re-recording of one of Myths & Legends' strongest tracks, adds keyboards, piano, layered acoustic guitars and a wailing lead, turning the song into a seven-minute glam epic. The Glory Years is a strong album of anthemic power-pop by a true Vermont talent.

OLD JAWBONE, SOUNDS UNIVERSAL (Self-released, CD) The local sextet Old Jawbone creates music that is passionate, danceable and very difficult to describe. That's a compliment. On their recent CD release, Sounds Universal, OJB — the band's alternate name — deals out an amalgamation of roots reggae, mambo, hip-hop, horn-section soul music and '70s-styte synth-funk, to name a few of the many styles they've incorporated. Elijah Kraatz, the band's lead singer and a primary songwriter, was liberated from an early affection for "death metal" music when he discovered, and began to explore, the spiritual and musical legacy of Bob Marley. Kraatz writes and sings as if he was born and raised in Trenchtown. His lyrics echo Marley's philosophy of faith, hope and optimism, and the recognition that a per son should take a stand for what's important in their lives. Many of OJB's songs are a plea for reason, revolution and peace in an overwhelming world. The band's name is derived from the weapon used by Samson to defeat the Philistines in the Old Testament. A quote on the band's Web site warns, "Never doubt the power of a small group of thoughtful individuals to change the world." Add to this strong philosophical core a seasoned team of fine musicians and songwriters who are absolutely comfortable playing together — the band reportedly hasn't skipped its regular weekly practice session in years. With a rock-solid rhythm section, OJB has become an imposing musical entity in Vermont. Sounds Universal takes off with a Kraatz composition entitled "Come Along," which utilizes a catchy meter change in the refrain to pick you up and carry you into the feast of different styles to come. In "Elevate," the band delares: "We play music of 1 . the revolutionary kind; 2. the evo lutionary kind; 3. the loving kind to elevate your mind."

Old Jawbone's groove is unyielding, their message heartfelt, and their music fascinating, pro viding lots of much-needed good energy right now. The band plays Higher Ground this Thursday, with Manifest Nextome.

E X H IB IT "Family Matters," paintings and mixed media by Linda Jones. Living/Leaming Center Gallery, University of Vermont, Burlington. Through March 13.

IM AGE

Matthew Thorsen

F a m ily

he art gallery at U V M ’s Living/ Learning Center is probably the best-kept secret o f Vermont’s visual art scene. Curator Joan Watson, director of the Center’s ceramics co op, has been presenting top-quality exhibitions in the large and well-lit gallery space for more years than she can probably remember. It’s a place for artists to show some of their edgi est work without commercial pres sures or aesthetic biases. This month’s exhibition by Burlington artist Linda Jones, entitled “Family Matters,” is typical of the high-caliber work at the L/L — it’s challenging, gutsy and innovative. “Family Matters” consists of four large-scale paintings, two large con structions and a series of 11 smaller assemblages grouped together under the title “Preserving Family Matter.” The paintings are fairly traditional Abstract Expressionist works and are typical of Jones’ painterly style. The acrobatic displays of interwoven fields and arcs are dominated by strong reds, white and black while also scumbled with pale yellows and blues. The other works in the show are far from traditional. Jones has incorporat ed forensic evidence of family life into her constructions and assemblage pieces. Her artist’s statement indicates they include “materials that have touched my family both literally and figuratively. Materials that have absorbed, injected, probed and sewn flesh together.” Sound yucky? It’s really just media.

OPENINGS Jones can successfully incorporate familial medical detritus into her work because she keeps formal, artistic con siderations at the forefront of each image. These, pieces are not intended to horrify or disgust. Each is simply a different kind of self- or family por trait, and they’re more closely related to medieval reliquaries than to contem porary shock art. The “Preserving Family Matter” / L assemblage series illustrates that differ ence perfectly. In each of the roughly 12-by-9-inch pieces, Jones uses encaus tic and bronze powder to give them background surfaces reminiscent of gold-leafed icons. But rather than car rying a haloed mystical portrait, each has a pool of translucent pink, yellow and pale blue acrylic polymers resem bling a large biopsy. Hair, bandages, EEG wires and other family relics that have actually been used are contained in the fleshy plastic pools. “Preserving Family Matter # 9 ” contains two of Jones’ dental crowns. They probably don’t look that much different than the tooth of St. Peter, purported to be at St. Denis Cathedral in France. The dif ference is mostly in the packaging. The constructions “Family Matters I + II” are semicircular convex canvass es pierced with illuminated X-rays and * suspended on the walls by irregularly T , spaced, stretched rubber surgical tub- V ing. Both pieces are about seven feet ill. diameter, and have the same Caucasia^ flesh tones that appear in the smaller . assemblages. Hair and bits o f medical waste have been sewn or glazed into /I'

them. The constructions are expansive, biomorphic forms that resemble single cells enlarged a hundred thousand times. The shimmering X-rays inset into the canvasses’ ripped openings are like bleached bones revealed through torn flesh. i The dimensions of Jones’ traditional paintings are human-scale, correspon ding to her own and other family members’ heights in the fall of 2001 — the time when the stretchers were fashioned. The piece entitled “Mark and Cody” is as tall as her husband Mark Stephens and as wide as the height of her eldest son Cody. The other paintings in the series are “Cody and Clark,” “Mark and Linda” and “Linda and Clark.” While random fac tors determine the dimensions of most artists’ paintings, Jones’ decidedly nonrandom approach to canvas size and shape underscores the fact that the exhibit’s theme is her family’s physical life, quantified and documented. It’s as if Jones and crew aren’t just the show’s artistic subjects, but scientific subjects as well. Not much is random about “Family Matters.” Jones also writes that she has collected the medical relics of her fami ly for ‘‘reasons not entirely clear to me.” Perhaps the same would be true of the religious faithful who collected the hair, teeth and shreds of cloth that once touched living saints. It may be an impulse to preserve the tangible evi dence of intangible connections, espe cially those that have something to do with love. ®

T A D O LLS H O U SE Ferrell and one of his favorite fraternity friends.

his is a comedy with a number of extremely funny running jokes, but the funniest has to be the film’s cen terpiece: I he recently married Will Ferrell is discovered by his disbeliev ing bride — and a carful of her clos est friends — running stark naked and hammered out of his head down the middle of his town’s busiest street. You no doubt have a sense o f the scene, since it’s featured in the movie’s TV ads. W hat you may doubt is the ability of the rest of the picture to measure up — or down — to that standard. Either way, you needn’t worry. After all, O ld School director Todd Phillips is on familiar ground. His pre vious work includes Road Trip, which chronicled the misadventures of a group of fraternity buds. Prior to that he’d made a documentary called Frat House, a controversial hit at Sundance in 1998. It’s a safe bet that, like many of us, he’d watched A n im al House at least a half-dozen times. Phillips may be the world’s foremost authority on frat-themed filmmaking. This is a frat film with a difference, however. The director turns the tradi tion on its head by telling his story from the point o f view of grownups wistful foT unfettered youth, rather than adolescents who covet the license

CONFESSIONS OF A DANGEROUS M IN D -*-*-** George Clooney makes

of adults. Ferrell and Vince Vaughn play guys for whom married life has, to say the least, lost its luster. Luke Wilson’s a friend on the rebound from a disastrous relation ship. Vaughn helps him find a house near the local college campus. When he discovers the building is zoned only for university use, he decides to turn it into a frat house. This, he figures, will help reintroduce Wilson into the dat ing stream while providing both him self and Ferrell with a no-pressure home away from home. W hat it also provides is the basis for a series of gags, a few of which are on the insipid side and a majority of which are semi-inspired. All by itself, the notion of a renegade house made up o f middle-aged refugees from the mainstream is loopily appealing. W hat responsible breadwinner can’t relate to the fantasy of returning for a time to the Dionysian days of post secondary education? Many who partied along with John Belushi in their twenties might savor the chance to do the same in their forties or fifties with Ferrell. This actor is the perfect avatar for a comic midlife crisis. The ultimate anti-Bluto, Ferrell has few peers when it comes to playing well-intentioned wormboys who can’t get the hang of

adulthood. His inner child clearly wants to drink up, not grow up. The best part of attending O ld School is watching what happens when he lets the wild child have his way. Wilson and Vaughn are highly entertaining as well. Vaughn in partic ular proves a considerably more natu ral comic talent than one might expect, especially in light of his con vincing portrayal of Norman Bates and the fact that he sounds chillingly like Christopher Walken. The film also features a nifty turn by Jeremy Piven as the disapproving dean who targets the manimal house for elimina tion. The twist, of course, is that the dis gruntled administrator is now a con temporary of the aging miscreants, a doofus they’d known and messed with a bit in their younger days. Unfortu nately for our three stooges, the guy’s sense o f humor hasn’t improved with age, and he makes it his mission to put them out o f funny business. Given the movie’s premise, it’s the perfect touch. Motion pictures don’t get a whole lot dopier. Brows don’t go a whole lot lower. In these troubled times, though, a good laugh is almost never a bad thing, and almost every frame of O ld School is grade-A goofball fun. ®

Tuesday and Sunday. W hat’s a critic of popular culture to do? Search out the few halfway decent “movies” scheduled on television, that’s what: Reading alphabetically through T V Guide, I spot A Better Way to Die list ed for H BO . Never heard of it. But the stars are promising. Andre Braugher and Joe Pantoliano in a tale of mistaken iden tity that pits a cop against both the FBI and the Chicago underworld. Uh-oh. Doesn’t start until 2:05 Friday morning. Way past my bedtime. Next up, The Big Picture , with Martin Short and Kevin Bacon, also on Friday. I remember really liking this satire of Hollywood when it came out in 1989. Might be worth another shot. Damn! Cinemax, which I don’t get. And even if I did, it’s at 6:15 a.m. — way before I wake up. Skipping down to the Es, Enemy a t the Gates is a 2001 release that I missed. The cast is intriguing: Jude Law, Ed Harris and Bob Hoskins. Wouldn’t you know? Eleven p.m. works for me, but not on Showtime, another premium cable channel that doesn’t come into my home. Just as well. The plot centers on the Battle of Stalingrad, and I’m not in the mood for war stories these days. Aha! Hannah and Her Sisters is one of Woody Allen’s masterpieces — from his Mia Farrow period, no less. Michael Caine and Dianne Wiest won Oscars for their supporting roles. Bingo! This 1986 saga of family and betrayal is on T M C at 6:3 0 p.m., Wednesday, March 5. So I won’t catch all the nightly news programs for a change. Too depressing anyhow. Am I perhaps blessed with two good ies in a row? The Luzhin Defense runs

P o l l o c k bring: no solution. Although

anything with Ed Harris is worthwhile, and I never saw this 20 0 0 biopic about the seminal abstract artist, the HBO broadcast is on Thursday at 4: 15 a.m. Who are all these insomniacs the cable stations are perpetually trying to please? My outlook brightens when I discover T M C has reserved a 9 p.m. slot on Friday for The Score, an underrated example of the heist double-cross genre. Yes, Marlon Brando is a little too Apocalypse Now as a master thief. But Edward Norton and Robert DeNiro, playing his partners in a safe-cracking scheme, are terrific. While it would be a second time around for me, the Montreal setting is just so j e ne sais quoi. Whoa! W hat’s this on Friday? T M C has programmed Women in Love, a British art-house classic based on D .H . Lawrence’s novel about the illusions of romance. Glenda Jackson nabbed a 1970 Academy Award for her perform ance in this gothic sexual escapade directed by Ken Russell. Bum m er... it begins at 2:4 5 a.m. Though I’m committed to dream land then, the seriously sleepless might be in for some prurient viewing during the Film’s nude wrestling scene with Alan Bates and Oliver Reed. The female characters must be the ones wrestling with their libidos, however. At least I assume that’s why critic Rex Reed — no relation to Oliver — suggested: “They should take all the pretentious dialogue off the soundtrack and call it Women in H eat.” Hey, the cinematic choices may be limited, but heat of any kind is a good thing when it’s below zero outside.

SAINTS AND WINNERS

If we coutda, we woulda tied for first place in the float competition in last Saturday's Mardi Gras parade, but as Seven Days was once again a cosponsor of the annual event put on by Magic Hat, we weren't eligible. Apparently, though, the "Saints Alive!" theme and our tribute to Burlington's late "Clarinet Man," Richard Haupt, won the hearts and votes of the judges. • But the "Dog Pound" float from a group of Burlington friends took first place. Redstone Commercial Group came in second with another water-oriented float. Last year hot tubs, this year an ice rink. What next, a thunderstorm? Third place was City Market, with some basic food groups, not all of them organic. Beaucoup thanks to the following for making the Seven Days float possible: Advance Music, Audio Solutions, Barbacoa, Ben Franklin, Stefan "Toolbelt" Bumbeck & all the Float Construction Technicians, Dave the Driver, Eric "Fogmaster" Durett, Eric "Lord of the Land" Farrell, Gregory Supply, Handy's Lunch, Hertz First Choice Rental, Kinko's, Red Square, Thrifty, the people who invented zip ties and kazoos, and the weather gods for a beautiful day! Last but certainly not least, fat-angel thanks to Alan Newman, Stacey Steinmetz and Magic Hat Brewing Co.! Happy Lent. ® PH O TOS: MATTHEW T H O RSEN

S'WONDER Jazz vo calist Nnenna Freelon's current tour draws heavily on the sultry chanteuse's sense of Wonder — Stevie, th at is. On her most recent recording, the five tim e Grammy nominee gives a dozen of his songs the sort of personal treatm ent usually reserved for standards. In 10 years as a recording artist, she's developed a knack for unexpected interpretations. "Button Up Your Overcoat" gets a hip-hop beat, " If I Only F t e d - e K B r a i m s into a w istful ballad, and "Paper Moon" becomes an expression of spiritual faith. Freelon also has a knack for advocacy. Her Burlington v isit includes a free talk on "How Arts Education Changes Lives." Too bad it comes a f t e r Town Meeting Day.

N N EN N A F R E E L O N Talk: Thursday, March 6, 7 p.m, Free. Concert: Friday, March 7, 8 p.m. $23-26. Flynn Center, Burlington. Info, 863-5966.

can't take a walk in the woods without spotting white-tailed deer tracks. You know it's autumn in Churchill, Manitoba, when you can't leave a build ing without a shotgun escort. A brochure boasting the town's attractions calls it, "The realm of the lords of the north." The slogan was enough to inspire Seth Gibson to book a puddle-jumper head ing north out of Winnipeg. He wanted to witness "the lords" for himself. Manitoba is vast, flat, white and cold — arctic tundra at its finest. Gibson's photographs captured the subtleties of the landscape well. Thanks to the indestructibility of the Tundra Buggy, an Orwellian tank with monster-truck tires, he was able to pho tograph some wildlife as well: snow bunting, arctic fox, ptarmigan and the largest land carnivore in North America: the polar bear. The Hudson Bay begins to freeze off the coast of Churchill in early October. The polar bears know this pattern, and in their eagerness to spend another winter fattening up on ring and harp seals, they head straight for the ice. It just so happens that their migration route intersects with the only human settlement for miles. Gibson knew he was not in Kansas anymore when he noticed the iron bars on the windows of his bunkroom. This is not to say the locals feel threatened by the presence of the 850-pound ani mals. Rather they are protective and proud of their seasonal neighbors. "The bears belong," Gibson assured us. "The hum ans are the intruders." There are times, however, when the bears grow curious and need to be airlifted out of someone's back yard. After a second offense, they're darted with a friendly gun and brought to bear jail. For tunately, their sentence only lasts until the ice forms. The audience cooed at a close-up shot of an immature male with paws the size of dinner plates. Later, in a pamphlet entitled "Instructions for Meeting a Polar Bear," I read: "Polar bears are w ild life, regardless of how exotic or docile they may seem." If we met one up-close and personal, we'd all be goners for sure. — J i l l Hindle

lectures

B (MINOR) IS FOR BACH Small is beautiful. Especially when the polished Swiss chorus Ensemble Corund performs the Mass in B Minor, often considered the best of Bach. Although modern audiences have grown accus tomed to large choruses and full orches tras, Bach himself rarely entrusted his own music to more than four of his best vocalists. While Ensemble Corund is larger than a quartet, it's unusually con centrated, as is the accompanying instrumentation. This scaled-down approach lets Baroque buffs pick out every stitch in the tapestry of contra puntal techniques woven into the mas terpiece. As the Ensemble's Web site explains, "What the performance might seem to lose in sheer mass is more than made up for in clarity of musical struc ture and intensity of sound."

Amitav Ghosh brings the global vil lage to Burlington. One of India's most acclaimed authors in the English language, the versatile writer envisions societies in which diverse groups peacefully coexist — or try to. In his most recent novel, The Glass Palace, a Burmese woman watches approaching Japanese bombers at the start of World War I I . What sort o f creature could think o f waging war upon herself her hus band, her child — a fam ily such as hers — fo r what reason? Who were these people who took it upon them selves to remake the history o f the world? UVM English professor Huck Gutman observes, "What Ghosh writes seems particularly pertinent today, when a massive U.S. bombing of * Baghdad is imminent."

WILLPOWER At Spectrum, where there's been a Will there's been a way. In the 13 years that Will Rowe directed the kid-focused, Burlington-based agency, it grew into the state's pre miere adolescent organization. As the 55-year-old former philosopher steps down, admirers pay tribute. "Working with Will was remarkable," says former Spectrum staffer Mitch Baron. Barbara Rachelson, another agency veteran, calls Rowe "a vision ary." But he's no self-promoter, suggests Representative Mark Larsen, who runs Spectrum's Domestic Abuse Education Project. "He's not a figurehead." Rowe, who hopes to find nonprofit work abroad, has hiked the length of the Long Trail solo. Those are big shoes for his successor, Mark Redmond, to fill.

30B I march 05-12, 2003 I SEVENDAYS

BY ROB BREZSNY M A R C H 06-1 2

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

ARIES (Mar. 21-Apr. 19): “It was the biggest mistake I ever made, and yet it was the best thing that ever happened to me.” When we spoke yesterday, that’s how my Aries friend Ron referred to his relation ship with his ex-girlfriend. He got Involved with her for all the wrong reasons, he said, and they stayed together only because he held on so tightly to his delusions about her. But in the painful months since they broke up, he has harvested a wealth of wisdom about himself. He feels that will serve him in good stead the next time he takes the leap into love. “My time with Susan was equivalent to me getting my Ph.D. in relation ships,” he concluded. Though the details of Ron’s story may differ from yours, Aries, you’re ready to make a similar conclusion: One of your big booboos was actually a stroke of great fortune.

TAURUS

(Apr. 20-May 20): Once the full impact of Einstein’s theory of relativity became clear, an admiring journalist interviewed him about the process by which he’d arrived at the revolutionary break through. “How did you do it?” the journalist asked. “I ignored an axiom,” Einstein replied. Now let’s analyze that statement for your use, Taurus. Einstein didn’t say he’d ignored an opinion or theory, but rather an idea so well established that it was regarded as self-evident. Furthermore, he didn’t say he rebelled or fought against the axiom: He simply acted as if it weren’t there. I suggest you follow his example exactly in the coming week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You’re the zodiac’s most inventive talker, but it doesn’t always work to your advantage. Sometimes you sab otage your brilliant verbal forays by going on for so long that your listen

ers tune you out. On other occa sions, you undermine your persua siveness by sounding too damn smart, thereby intimidating the very people you’re trying to convince. But I predict that none of this will be a problem for you in the coming days, Gemini. You’ll have a sixth sense about when to let your mouth slip into creative hyperdrive and when, on the other hand, to slow it down. As a result, your ability to win friends and influence people will zoom to its highest levels in many moons.

CANCER

(June 21-July 22): As I compose this horoscope, I’m sit ting in my car with the engine off during rush hour, stuck halfway across the Golden Gate Bridge between San Francisco and Marin County. Traffic came to a dead halt 40 minutes ago due to a big acci dent. My situation is an analogue of the predicament you find yourself in, Cancerian. Through no fault of your own, you’ve been stopped while crossing a metaphorical bridge. Here’s my advice: As you wait for the obstruction to be cleared, don’t grind your teeth and curse. Instead, take advantage of the temporary interrup tion by doing something as useful as I am.

LEO

(July 23-Aug. 22): Last November a flower-arranger named Stacie wrote to tell me about her lat est creation. She’d walked into the dry autumn woods and gathered big purple thistles, gnarled berry vines, spiny horehound seedpods and numerous plants with burrs. After she assembled it all into a bouquet back home, she gave it a title, as if it were a sculpture. She called it “Ode to Prickly Things: My Beautiful Fear.” Though she hadn’t realized what she was doing, she had assem bled a perfect artistic expression of

the subtle dread she always carried with her. To see it embodied so visi bly had an effect comparable to an exorcism. From that day on, she felt much freer of her chronic anxiety. I suggest you take inspiration from her, Leo. Perform a ritual or make some art that gives you power over the thing you’re most afraid of.

VIRGO

(Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Empty your mind of everything it thinks it knows about where you belong, Virgo. Once you’ve created a wide-open space, launch an inquiry into the nature of your true home. Here are some questions to guide you. 1. What’s the first place you think of when you hear the word “sanctuary”? 2. What environments bring out the best in you? 3. Do you have what you might call power spots and, if so, what do they feel like? 4. What places on the planet captivate your imagination, even if you’ve never even been there? 5. Is it possible there may be a future home that’s a more meaningful version of home than the place where tradition comforts you?

LIBRA

(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Chanteuse Billie Holiday believed a good singer should never sing a song the same way twice. All the tantric sex teachers say an artful lover never makes love the same way twice. The only Zen master I know — whose name I can’t tell you because she changes it every week, and I haven’t heard the latest one — likes to quote the ancient Greek philosopher, Heraclitus: “You cannot step into the same river twice, for fresh waters are ever flowing in upon you.” These ideas are always useful to keep in mind, Libra. But during the next three weeks, they should be your constant meditation.

SCORPIO (Oct

23-Nov. 21): Writer Michael Tortorello has complained about the “national delight deficit.” My friend Lanny bemoans the public’s shrinking attention span for stories about joy ful events and satisfying break throughs. I myself have marveled at the pathological tendency of many educated people to equate cynicism with intelligence. It’s in the context of this stupefying collective addic tion to dank moods that I give you your assignment, Scorpio: You, more than any other sign of the zodiac, are now primed to harvest an abundance of pleasure, mirth and fun. Please don’t keep it all to yourself; try to infect everyone you meet.

SAGITTARIUS

(Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Ocean floors are not flat and level. In some places, under water mountains rise to tremendous heights. Hawaii’s Mauna Kea is taller than Mt. Everest, for instance, though only its uppermost part pokes above the sea’s surface. Other submarine peaks, like the recently mapped Adantis Massif in the Adantic Ocean, are completely hid den beneath the waves. Let these be your metaphors of power in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. You’ll soon discover and explore your own mysterious equivalent of underwater mountains.

CAPRICORN

(Dec. 22Jan. 19): If you’re a Capricorn jour nalist, this is the week you could get a Pulitzer Prize-winning scoop from a drunken slaughterhouse worker about a likely E. coli outbreak. If you’re a Capricorn parent, you’ll have a lightning bolt of insight into the destiny of your child, forever changing the way you guide him or her. If you’re a Capricorn songwriter, I bet you’ll channel a melody or lyrics that will become one of your

signature songs. And if you’re any other kind of Capricorn, you’ll be the beneficiary of a rich revelation that will be as Valuable to you as a huge windfall.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Id” is a psychoanalytic term. It refers to the part of your mind that harbors your instinctual needs and drives. On the one hand, your id is the source of tremendous amounts of psychic energy. On the other hand, it’s almost totally unconscious, h Think about it, Aquarius: The pri mal, dynamic core of your life force is mostly invisible and unknown to you. For most people, this is a good thing. It would be painful and scary to be fully aware of the id. In the coming week, however, you will ben efit from being in conscious contact with this high voltage potential. I suggest you begin immediately. Mindful that your id is like a smart but wild animal, invite it to show itself.

PISCES

(Feb. 19-Mar. 20): Astrology asserts that we humans are puppets of cosmic forces that are beyond our power to affect, right? Wrong. In fact, the opposite is the case: Studying the nature of arche typal energies helps us direct them in constructive ways. In her book, M aking the Gods Work for You,

astrologer Caroline Casey articulates this view, suggesting that with ( enough ingenuity we can actually get divine powers to be our collabora tors. Here’s another way to say it: Ask not what your planets are doing to you, but what you can do with your planets. I bring this up, Pisces, >f

because you’ve never been in a better position to persuade the cosmic forces to serve your free will. ® ,
