Deathly Hallows Scans

Aspen's summer of arts — from those who know

ASPEN — In my childhood, in Livingston, N.J., my cultural calendar featured exactly one entry, and it's not something that I would even consider these days as “culture.” It was the Kiwanis Carnival, which each May would deliver to my town of 27,000 four days of corn dogs, cotton candy and funnel cakes, and then rides like the Roundup and Swiss Bob — not a great combination. During Kiwanis time, the chatter in school wasn't so much about the food or the rides or the number of goldfish somebody won by landing ping-pong balls in a little fish tank; it was whose vomit landed on whom. I don't remember going to a single play, outside of my school, in Livingston. There were no festivals, no art exhibitions, no concerts — or venues in which to stage them. Or at least, not that I knew of. My cultural tastes were narrow indeed, and the most exciting thing that ever happened in the vicinity of Livingston was when the Jerry Garcia Band played at Caldwell College, a few towns over. I planned to ride my bike to the show, just so I could say I biked to see Jerry, but it rained, I probably didn't own a bike at the time, and mixing a Garcia Band show, a bike and crowded suburban highways was probably an even worse combination than carnival rides and fried junk food. Aspen ain't Livingston. Mercy, much as I spend my days digging into the Aspen area's cultural offerings, fending off press releases on this festival and that theater presentation and the other lecture and that new film series, I can't keep track of it all. Meaning that you, who don't devote your hours to charting the local culture calendar, can use some help. Time is tight, events are plentiful, and information is thus at a premium. “The Interrupters” (Opening the Aspen Ideas Festival film series. Check aifestival.org): Of everything I saw at Sundance this year, Steve James' epic yet intimate portrait of former gang members working to diffuse street violence in Chicago engaged me like no other film. Lengthy, yes, but it's urgent, moving and rich with importance. With a panel featuring the director, as well as film subjects, this promises to be a powerhouse evening. Girl Talk returns to Aspen as part of Jazz Aspen Snowmass' Labor Day Festival (Sept. 2, Snowmass Village). This mash-up artist extraordinaire creates fresh, vibrant new sounds by meticulously sampling thousands of pop music classics on a personal computer.

For some time now--nothing is. (The article forgot to mention though that the Ontarians at least pay themselves better salaries than one would get in the U.S.).

An example of this occurs nas you are not even fully into Canada, as you cross the border into Canada on the Ambassador Bridge going from Detroit, Michigan, USA to Windsor, Ontario, CA. There's always been around a 20% more fee to get into the U.S. from Canada. (But Canada to the U.S. the same, I think?)
