be tried as an adult Dylan Svoboda Staff writer

El Dorado County District Attorney Vern Pierson speaks with media following Michael Green’s first court appearance Wednesday in Placerville. Further proceedings for Green take place March 20.

Michael Green, the new suspect in the 1985 Jane Hylton murder case, made his first appearance in El Dorado County juvenile court Wednesday. Prosecutors are aiming to try the defendant, who was 17 years old

at the time of Hylton’s death, in adult criminal court. Green is scheduled to appear again March 20 in El Dorado County Superior Court, following the county Probation Department’s completion of a “transfer hearing report” — the first move in transferring a defendant from juvenile to adult court. As a teen at the time of the murder, the now-51-year-old’s trial

Michael Green is especially unusual, according to El Dorado County District Attorney Vern Pierson. “Procedurally, the

court has to go through some steps on the juvenile side of it,” Pierson said. Green was arrested Tuesday, Feb. 11. Authorities booked him into El Dorado County Jail Friday, Feb. 14. El Dorado County public defender Tim Pappas is representing Green in the case. Hylton was found dead July 7, 1985 at an El Dorado Hills home. Green is said to be one n

EID looks at costs of operation during power shutdowns n District estimates

nearly $400,000 in additional expenditures in 2019 Dawn Hodson Staff writer With the memory of last year’s PG&E public safety power shutoffs still fresh in everyone’s minds, at the Feb. 10 El Dorado Irrigation District Board of Directors meeting Dan Corcoran, the agency’s director of operations, provided an overview of how the

shutdowns affected operations and budget. EID, like much of the county, was hit by five distinct power outages although pre-planning and a diligent staff prevented interruptions in service to the district’s water or wastewater customers. Corcoran noted that EID maintains 168 electrical service connections with PG&E and was prepared for all of them to be de-energized. Most of those connections supply electricity for water and wastewater treatment, distribution and pumping and water storage and hydropower generation facilities. Electricity is also used to keep Sly Park Recreation Area functioning

as park access fees often need to be electronically processed and maintaining communication is important in the event of an emergency. In anticipation of these power outages the district purchased additional generators in 2018 and early 2019. It also rented several generators to avoid interruptions in service. The district currently maintains a fleet of 187 generators. These back-up generators minimized the potential for water and wastewater service interruptions, maintained water supplies for fire suppression, avoided sewer overflows and maintained safe operations on the

22-mile El Dorado Canal. Corcoran said the back-up generators are not designed for regular or prolonged usage and are expensive to operate. The district estimates that the five power shut-off events in 2019 cost the district $344,000 in labor, including regular and overtime hours, and $47,000 in generator rentals and fuel. Fuel is a key factor in these costs with the price of running generators as high as $50,000 a day to supply significant power loads. There was no loss in hydroelectric generation revenues as all the power n

William John Hallock

Dorothy Virginia Cabodi

William was born in the same room as his father in the family home in Danby, N.Y. William “Bill” was the youngest of five children born to Raymond Martin Hallock and Stella Mae Costello who managed the family dairy. At age 6, the family decided to move to Oregon, settling down in Scappoose just north of Portland. Bill started second grade there and met the love of his life, Vida Mae Knouse. Bill and Vida were married on Feb. 29, 1948. Bill had joined the Army to become a dental lab technician and was stationed at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas, to complete his training. Bill’s duty stations included La Rochelle, France, and Camp Hakata Fukuoka, Japan, during the Korean War. Bill then enlisted in the Air Force Base in Sacramento, Calif. Bill continued working as a lab tech, eventually opening Tri-City Dental Laboratory in Concord, Calif., in 1968. Bill moved the lab from Concord to Diamond Springs in 1984, and then to his home in Somerset, Calif. Bill retired in June of 2015 and moved to Ephrata, Wash. Bill is preceded in death by his wife of 68 years, Vida Knouse Hallock, brother Raymond Hallock, sisters Helen Fox, Betty Anderson and Pluma Hallock. Bill is survived by son William John Hallock III (Rae Del) of Pleasant Valley, Calif., and son Douglas Knouse Hallock (Beth) of Walla Walla, Wash., five grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren.

It is with sadness that we share the passing of Dorothy Virgina Cabodi on Jan. 20, 2020. She quietly passed away at home at the age of 103.

Clarification The story on page A1 Wednesday regarding the Placerville City Council limiting the number of events that will result in closing Main Street neglected to state that all applications received this year were approved by city staff. A photo published with the story showing a past Antiques Faire may have been misleading; the Antiques Faire organizers did not apply with the city to present that event in 2020, nor did the sponsors of the brewfest.

Big 5 break-in suspect claims to be ‘Jesus Christ’ Dylan Svoboda Staff writer

BLAKE THACKER

18. The store’s alarm company “reported multiple glass breaks and a male subject on the phone inside the store claiming to be ‘Jesus Christ,’” according to a press release from the police department. The suspect, Blake Thacker, 32, used a white Subaru to “ram the front door of the business,” the release states. Officers arrived

Placerville police arrested a Georgetown man suspected of burglarizing a department store in Placerville early Tuesday morning. Officers responded to a report of burglary at the Big 5 Sporting Goods on Placerville Drive just after 2:30 a.m., Feb.

at the scene to find Thacker near the front door of the store and vehicle. Thacker allegedly refused to comply with officer commands and retreated to his vehicle. Officers then removed the suspect and later booked him into El Dorado County Jail. Store surveillance footage showed Thacker thrusting the car into

the front doors, allowing him entry into the store. Once inside, he “used a hatchet from inside the store to smash the glass display counter,” the suspect then “ransacked the store in what appeared to be random acts of vandalism.” Big 5 might not have been the suspect’s first stop. Placerville Police officials said El Dorado County sheriff ’s deputies

responded to a similar incident earlier in the night at Walmart on Missouri Flat Road, “where a man associated with a white Subaru had been banging on the doors,” according to the release. Placerville police are asking anyone with additional information to contact the department at (530) 642-5210.

Veterinarian charged with animal abuse keeps license Dawn Hodson Staff writer Deciding that there was no nexus between the charges against veterinarian Dr. Dean Bader of animal cruelty and failure to report the abuse of animals and the substandard conditions reported in a state inspection of his clinic, on Thursday Judge Mark Ralphs denied without prejudice a motion from

the California Veterinary Medical Board to suspend the license of Bader. In his ruling Ralphs noted that the substandard conditions noted in the report prepared by Dr. James Howard on behalf of the medical board, were not related to the criminal case against Bader. “Bader is presumed innocent until proven otherwise,” said the judge. “Balancing these things, the court

denied the agency’s motion without prejudice.” Bader is the veterinarian of record of many of the more than 300 dogs, cats, horses, birds and other animals that were removed from the property of Alma and Charel Winston last May by El Dorado County Animal Services. In January Alma Winston pleaded guilty to five counts of felony animal cruelty and one count of elder abuse.

Charel Winston pleaded guilty to five counts of felony animal cruelty and to one count of grand theft. Bader, whose practice is based in Shingle Springs, was charged with three counts of cruelty to animals and failure to report animal abuse in relation to the Winstons’ case. That case has yet to go to trial. A preliminary hearing in the case is scheduled for Feb. 26 at 8 a.m. in Department 7.

From ‘Februburied’ last year to ‘Dryuary’ this season Tahoe Daily Tribune The Sierra Nevada snowpack continues to plummet and more sunny skies and warm temperatures are on the way. What a difference a year makes. Lake Tahoe last February was buried in snow. Ski resorts had a difficult time staying open with continuous snow dumps. It was hard to drive anywhere and snow removal personnel were piling it high where they could. This season, the basin has seen a few snowy crumbs but there has been no substantial storm since midJanuary, which was also a dry month except for that one 12- to 18-inch snow dump. The strong start to winter provided the mountains with a good blanket of snow. The first snowpack reading of 2020 showed the basin right about average for the time of year. Just six to seven weeks later on

the North Shore, Mount Rose is at 65% of average and Squaw Valley is at 48%, according to data from the National Resources Conservation Service California/Nevada SNOTEL Snowpack Update Report. On the South and East shores, Heavenly Mountain Resort is at 55%, Marlette Lake is at 68% and Carson Pass near Kirkwood still has a pretty strong snow blanket at 75%. To put in perspective, last year Heavenly had received 240 inches of snow through the first 15 days of February, an average of about 13 inches per day. The weather this week continues to be warm for the season with highs from 43 on Tuesday to 51 on Saturday. The lows in the evening will continue to dip below freezing. The winds look to be mild and around 5 mph through Thursday. There is a chance the basin will get a dusting of snow and rain on Sunday, according to the National Weather

The Stateline web cam in Tahoe South shows a shrinking snowpack. Service in Reno. Beyond the 5- to 7-day window, the extended forecast is showing another dry week beyond this weekend, with some possible activity late in the

week. But if nothing shows up in the next two weeks, February can be dubbed “Dryuary” — a stark contrast to last year’s “Februburied.”

grew up in the Bay Area — west side, Peninsula, in Belmont between San Mateo and San Carlos. I went to Oakland a half-dozen times in my 75 years. Two or three times to hockey games after the National Hockey League appointed the San Chris DAley Francisco-Oakland Seals as the regional pro-team or semi-pro-team, which played somewhere in Oakland. Being younger than 21 by a fair amount, my buddies and I found that the beer vendors at the arena weren’t overly particular about who bought their wares. I even learned to appreciate ice hockey from a certain hazy perspective. I went to the Oakland Museum a time or two and one or maybe two A’s games, if memory serves. I grew up believing the moniker Herb Caen bestowed on that part of the world — the Mysterious East Bay. The only thing worse than that mysterious place was Richmond and Vallejo. That was the legend around the Peninsula, at any rate. I doubt I was ever actually in either of those towns other than driving through to go skiing, camping, fishing or to go to school at UC Davis in 1964. We went to Oakland last week to attend the citizenship ceremony for our brother-in-law, Greg. He sailed from New Zealand with two pals when he was 25 — some 37 years ago. Over the years he had one or two tense meetings with immigration officials, but he finally got through the process on Feb. 12 (Lincoln’s birthday and my brother the deceased conservative’s birthday as well.) The MC for the ceremony (a San Francisco County Superior Court Judge) drew particular attention to the historical significance of the day. There were 1,282 folks from 94 countries being sworn in as brand-new American citizens. The MC instructed the several thousands of friends and family to refrain from clapping after each country was announced. Mostly that was respected, mostly. We were asked instead to simply say “woo-hoo.” Most of us did that. The largest group represented were Chinese, around 500 souls. Next came Mexico with 400-something; India was third and Philippines was fourth. After that there were many fewer “woohoos.” The individuals from each country were asked to remain standing after their country was called. Greg said he couldn’t see if there were any other Kiwis standing when New Zealand was announced because he couldn’t see over all the new American citizens from China and Mexico. The audience gave mighty roars for each of those huge groups. The four of us family members present gave a resounding “woo-hoo” for New Zealand, even if nobody else did. Overall, it was a very moving and emotional experience, especially for the honored individuals, evident from the tears and proud waving of miniature American flags as they filed out of the Paramount Theater and into the waiting arms and cameras of family and friends. Likewise, we were emotional and proud to be part of the ceremony. It was real different from a July 4th parade or Memorial Day or Labor Day or Veterans Day n

Letters to the Editor Our duty EDITOR: o we have a duty to our country? Or should we just go along?

that “decreed”) that the state of California will provide free healthcare to illegal aliens and street people. Last time I checked he was not king or emperor. In fact he was not even a member of the Legislature. He cannot make (or decree) the law. His job is to protect the people by ensuring, through his auspices, the safety and legal protection of “the people.” Being stupid is not a crime, but being dismissive of his duty to protect the public is more than grounds for his recall. It may be grounds for arrest for aiding and abetting the “criminals.” DOUG ROSCOE Shingle Springs

The tyranny of neglect EDITOR: housands of people are living on the streets of San Diego, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Portland and Seattle — just to mention the West Coast. To “squat” there is against the law. The law is ordained to protect “the people” from all the horrible consequences — filth, crime, disease, destruction of public and private property, demise of public and personal safety, etc. Some call “homelessness” a societal problem and it certainly is. However, it has been allowed to metastasize through flagrant neglect of the law. The city, county and state agencies (police, health and safety, etc.) exist to protect “the people” against all harm that these conditions inflict on the general public — ”the people.” Government’s job is to protect against the dire consequences (to both the public and the “homeless”). Instead state, county and local government officials are not only ignoring the horrendous conditions on our public streets, both business and residential, but tacitly and explicitly condoning and/or encouraging them. Gov. Gavin Newsom recently announced (read

EDITOR: n Jan. 28 I attended a rally at the state Capitol where I listened to various speakers for one hour who told how AB 5 impacted them. Truck drivers, Uber drivers, writers ... all recounted similar stories. AB 5 took away their livelihoods by preventing them from working parttime as independent contractors. AB 5 insists that all workers be employed as wage earners, not as independent contractors. Legislators thought that anyone who did not receive regular wages and have medical coverage was being cheated by a system that let them work part-time. However, those impacted by this law had a different story. Some aspect of their lives led them to choose to work independently as part-time employees. The question is this: How can representatives presume to know more about individuals than the individuals themselves? Secondly, why have these individuals no voice in representative government? The answer to both questions is lack of representation. Assembly members represent 500,000 people each. They cannot begin to know what impacts individuals. Instead, they only know what impacts large groups such as members of unions and other special interest groups. Individuals, to have any voice in government, need representatives who know them personally, an impossibility when legislators represent 500,000 constituents. Please visit this web page: ARR4all.org.

Paper mills and earlier recollection of Michigan-Cal

received the following request from retired attorney Phil Berry: “I request that the Mountain Democrat publish a correction to erroneous information in Michael Raffety’s column in the Feb. 3 edition. Michael “Mr. Raffety stated, ‘There are 678 paper mills in California.’ This is an erroneous and misleading number. That would be approximately 10 ‘paper mills’ in California for every single county. I have no idea where that number came from. Perhaps it is the number of companies in California, such as El Dorado Disposal, which accept paper from consumers. ”I remember that a recent insert in the Mountain Democrat from El Dorado Disposal stated there were only two paper mills in California. (Not the most recent insert, but one before that.) It seems that the paper mills in California are overwhelmed with recycled paper. “I think it is important that people

be correctly informed that recycling in California is experiencing significant problems.” I looked more closely at the 678 figure and discovered it probably includes a number of companies that may make fancy paper for invitations and other Raffety similar operations. There are, however, five International Paper mills in California, all of which have hiring notices. They are located at Sanger, Exeter, Modesto, Salinas and Visalia. I appreciate the letter from Phil. He is more than an attorney; he is also well-versed in forest practices and the logging business. His grandfather was Swift Berry, who studied engineering at the University of Nebraska and then was among the early students of the Biltmore Forestry School, starting there in 1906. Swift Berry went on to be an administrator and logging engineer for the regional U.S. Forest Service office in San Francisco. He later became a captain in the Engineer Corps, U.S. Army Forestry Engineers

in France during WWI. In 1929 Swift Berry became an assistant to a VP at MichiganCalifornia Lumber Company, later becoming general manager. In 1953 he was elected state senator representing El Dorado and Amador counties. Phil Berry’s father, Bill, was also a forester for Michigan-Cal. When he was 1 month old he was living with his mother and father at Logging Camp 15. Phil’s “Recollections of a Young Boy Living in Michigan-California Lumber Co. Camp “ Besides milled dimension lumber the Camino mill also had a box factory, Phil wrote. The unassembled boxes were shipped all over the country to be assembled where they were needed. Some folks know about Cable Road. In Phil’s youth there was a narrow-gauge railroad that took dry logs to the box factory. Other boards were used for lumber. All these were transferred to the Camino, Placerville and Lake Tahoe Railroad. The line ended at Camino and carried lumber on to the Southern Pacific tracks, sending lumber and box wood around the country.

From the box factory the narrowgauge railroad continued on to a cable where cars from the north side of the canyon were ferried over. “The cable extended 2,650 feet across the canyon. At this distance there was considerable sag in the actual wire cables. The amazing scale of the cable can be realized when you consider that from the bottom of the sag, the river was 1,200 feet below,” Phil wrote. Seven miles from the cable on the north side a narrow-gauge railroad connected with Michigan-Cal’s Pino Grande sawmill. “Pino had electricity. I can remember going to the sawmill with my dad. One of the things that particularly impressed me was the large, steam-operated generator in the basement of the mill. The steam piston drove a large flywheel that was 8 or 10 feet high. The flywheel turned the generator. It consisted of two levers with steel balls on the ends. When they spun around they controlled the amount of steam going to the generator. It was fascinating to watch it spin,” Phil wrote. Where was Camp 15? It was 16

Pondo’s steady captain steers the ship Mark Devaughn Staff writer Ben Ralph takes a low-profile route to high-level success. The Ponderosa High School boys soccer midfielder enjoys practice as much as the games. An accomplished basketball player in middle school, he chose to focus on soccer in high school. He relishes all the preparation the sport requires. “I get up for game, but I love going out and practicing soccer,” said Ralph, who will play college soccer next year on a partial scholarship at California State University, Chico. “I like the work that’s required to get better in soccer.

miles east of Pino Grande and was served by the Pino Grande railroad. About 140 people lived at Camp 15. The location is now under Union Valley Reservoir. The CT&P Railroad also served a lumber mill at Smith Flat. When I first came to the county I interviewed Bob West about his lumber business there. There was a railroad crossing at Highway 50 that stopped traffic while a train went by. The controller boxes are still there. One can see them from the trail near the pedestrian bridge over the highway. The old locomotive was parked next to what is now the Jack Russell Brewery and restaurant. An old codger talked the city into giving it to the state Railroad Museum in exchange for a caboose

problem. Make your vote count by knowing your representative. CECIL RINGGENBERG Placerville

Questionable ballot EDITOR: ooking at my Republican Party primary election ballot it smells of intentional chaos, skullduggery, whatever. For president there are seven names. Eh? Where did the other six come from to be on the Republican Party ballot? Then, there are six names for the House of Representatives seat now held by Tom McClintock. With California’s “two top” selection, I suspect this is an attempt to water down vote numbers for the incumbent. With the provision in election law

that allows a person to change party just for the primary and change back to their original party during actual vote for the House seat, the top two count can be manipulated. This whole primary vote system in California has been corrupted intentionally in order to create chaos and to manipulate the results. A few years ago, while still voting in person, I listened to two women discuss how they changed party to vote against the Republican and would change back after the primary. My comments on the multiple bond votes, including the hokey Prop. 13 by the state, would probably cause me more harassment than the time I criticized the burden put on property owners by the public library system.

He brings passion and pace to the team. “As long as there are young men like Ben in this world, I know we are going to be OK.” Ralph personifies his team’s fortunes in 2019-20. A 10-0 mark in Foothill Valley League play earned more than just another trophy. This Bruin edition became the first in program history to finish undefeated and untied. “We can admire that banner for rest of our lives,” Ralph said. “Nobody else can say they were the first. Nobody else has done that before.” Pondo earned the No. 3 seed in the Sac-Joaquin Section Division II bracket, where the dream season continued Tuesday. The 4-1 opening round win over Rodriguez High School marked a big step. The 2019 season ended with a first-round loss.

born in England and he remains close with his grandparents, who are now Bay Area residents. They passed down their love of English Premier League club Manchester United. Ben said he crafts his game after Paul Scholes, regarded by many as the best midfielder in the storied club’s history. Claire teaches third grade at Indian Creek Elementary in Placerville, while dad Rob is a physical education instructor at Ponderosa. Two years ago, the father taught his son in class. “It didn’t bother me,” Ben said of the experience. “Now, if he was grading papers, that might have been a different story.” He found inspiration for his college studies in a different classroom. Junior year saw anatomy and physiology become his favorite subject in high school. Ben said he’ll major in exercise physiology at Chico State, with hopes of becoming a physical therapist. The next athlete in the Ralph family is in seventh grade. Ben sees one glaring difference between himself and younger brother Nicky. “He may be stronger and bigger than I was at his age, but I put in more time,” he said.

In 2005, 20 years after the murder, authorities arrested and tried Ricky Davis for the brutal killing. He wound up serving 15 years for a crime that officials are now saying he didn’t commit. On Thursday, Feb. 13, authorities cleared Davis through genetic genealogy. The DNA test exonerated the prisoner and led investigators to Green. The district attorney’s office teamed up with the Sacramento County District Attorney’s Office and its crime lab to free Davis.

horoscope by Holiday Mathis n today ARIES (March 21-April 19). A feeling of longing and a longing for feeling — these are the human elements behind the meaningful accomplishments of the day. You’ll be on the lookout for this in yourself and others wherever you go. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Before making a choice, make sure that the lineup of options is actually the best you can do. “Constantly choosing the lesser of two evils is still choosing evil.” — Jerry Garcia GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The difference between challenging yourself and forcing things can be subtle. There’s no need to get there faster or show up stronger. Anything that feels pushed is probably wrong. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Once the thing you love gets popular, you’ll have less access to it. Right now, it’s pretty wonderful to love something that others don’t get yet. It allows you the chance to flow appreciation to it openly and without competition. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’ve been working hard and the temptation will be to play just as hard. Perhaps “hard” is not going to help matters. What can you do to make both work and play a little easier on yourself? VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your love is not a bubble that will pop when it smacks upon a sharp reality. Your love is made of tougher stuff, a durable elastic not duplicated anywhere else in the universe. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). It happens so very rarely,

but this is one of those times. Truly, you’ll be better off if you lose your usual diplomacy and get something off your chest. Speak the truth. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Getting out of a stuck place will be about the same no matter what kind of “stuck” it is. Jiggle, jostle and turn. Move until something about the situation changes. Wiggle until you’re free. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). When you’re new, you have to work a little harder, smarter and more creatively than the others. There will be a way to defer to the big shots and still be powerful in your own right. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Everyone doesn’t have to know what you’re good at. If you know, that’s enough. The confidence you feel will come through in your posture and your being, no words necessary. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There you go thinking of who you might have been were certain turns not taken. It’s only a helpful flight of fancy if it changes your thought process for the next turn. Otherwise, the best policy is: no regrets. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You’ll give more than they were expecting. You’ll give more than you were expecting. Things just happen in the moment, and it’s in everyone’s best interest.

shutdown events happened after the annual maintenance period on EID’s powerhouse. In response to a question from Director Alan Day regarding how much power outages have cost the district, Corcoran noted the board previously authorized spending more than $800,000 on back-up power before last year’s events occurred and the agency was looking at investing another half million. In total that meant the agency will have spent about $1.5 million in a year-and-a-half in efforts to maintain operations during power shutdowns. In anticipation of future shutdowns the agency continues to seek grant funding for back-up power supplies. EID has applied for a grant from FEMA to fund 75 percent of the cost of 22 additional generators. If the $1.854 million grant is approved, the district will have to contribute $618,000, but that will primarily be in the form of capitalized labor. District staff has also been active in working with the Association of California Water Agencies in advocating for legislation to lessen the impacts of power shutdowns on agencies. Such advocacy has included requesting that investor-owned utilities such as PG&E prioritize grid hardening for critical services, dedicate grant funding for back-up power generators for public health and safety facilities, that priority be given to restoring power to providers of critical services following a power shutdown, that water and wastewater providers be reimbursed for all costs incurred and that investor-owned utilities think about establishing a discounted rate structure if they refuse to compensate agencies like EID for the direct costs associated with power shut-off events. EID staff has also scheduled discussion with PG&E regarding what actions can be taken to reduce the magnitude of power shutdowns on the district’s service area.

MONKS

Democrat photos by Kevin Christensen

Tenzin Lekshey, left photo, blesses visitors as the Tibetan Buddhist Monks of Gaden Shartse Monastery invited the community for opening ceremonies Friday, Feb. 14, after arriving in Placerville for their nine-day stay. Pedro Olvera of the Shingle Springs Band of Miwok Indians, right photo, welcomes the monks in song.

Photo by Daniel Linhardt

The monks play traditional music using Tibetan horns, cymbals and drums at Monday evening’s program, Tibetan Cultural Night: A Day in the Life at Gaden Shartse, that included musical performances, chanting and a photo slideshow, among other activities, to give attendees an idea of what a day in the life of a monk is like.

Photo by Cecilia Clark

Tibetan Cultural Night also included a demonstration of monastic debate that involves speaking loudly, hand clapping and expressive gestures.

Plant selection directly affects beneficial insect populations, those insects that can provide ecological benefits such as biodiversity and natural pest control.

headmistress Trunchbull in both casts and describes her as “extremely twisted, but an interesting person. The character has a lot of depth.” Zach said about the play, “I love the language, the clever word play. It’s a very languageoriented play and the writers made it so clever. The play has a lot of humor but it is dark. They live in a very interesting world.” The sweet, gentle and kindred soul to Matilda, Miss Honey, is played by Izzy Weaver (Mischief cast). “What I love about Miss Honey is that she’s not just a sweet teacher; she has so many layers,” Weaver shared. “She has a lot of drama. It was interesting to find her triggers, see what makes her upset and then incorporate those into my performance to do it justice.” Izzy said she found playing the role of Miss Honey to be “emotionally taxing. She is insecure, self-deprecating and sad; although she becomes more confident and develops throughout the show.” This will be EDMT’s first time performing “Matilda” and Debbie Wilson said the musical was a giant undertaking, specifically because of the element of magic that must occur. Wilson said she depends on Zach to invoke a little “magic” of his own as he brings Matilda’s abilities to life. “Matilda” will tug at heartstrings, evoke laughter and inspire all ages. “It’s a really good time,” said Wilson. “You mustn’t let a little thing like (being) little stop you.” “Matilda” will play at Harris Center for the Arts, 10 College Parkway in Folsom, Feb. 21 through March 1.

he’s intelligent, witty and resourceful and her name sounds as magical as she is. Matilda, the sweet little girl who had to grow up on her own, will win the hearts of big and small alike and leave the audience thankful that they came to spend a little time with her. El Dorado Musical Theatre presents Roald Dahl’s “Matilda The Musical,” opening Feb. 21.

Humble beginnings Born into a family where she’s not wanted or shown love, Matilda learns early, “Nobody but me can change my story.” And that is exactly what she sets out to do. Books give Matilda the escape she needs from her sorrowful and empty home life, where her self-involved parents barely spend time with her. When she is finally allowed to go to school, she faces another harsh world under the terrible and mean headmistress, Miss Trunchbull. It’s her teacher Miss Honey with whom she finds a kindred spirit. Miss Honey, whose background bears a similar resemblance to Matilda’s, lost her loving parents when she was just a young girl. Left in the care of her dreadful aunt, Miss Honey too missed out on being loved, but through teaching she showered her students with the love she herself never received. Matilda takes the audience on a journey of a little darkness, a bit of sadness, wit and inspiration. Director Debbie Wilson said the play “empowers children” and describes it as, “wildly

The lead character doesn’t leave the stage throughout the entire performance. Leighton, 11, said she and Matilda have a few common interests. They both love to read books and their teachers are really nice, but that’s where the similarities end. While

Matilda’s headmistress Miss Trunchbull is really mean, Leighton said she likes her school principal and added, “My parents are not mean,” referring to how cruelly Matilda’s parents treated her. What does she love about her role? “Matilda stands up to people a lot. It’s cool to be able to stand up for something. It’s a really fun experience and really cool to be a lead and have interactions with everyone.” How would she compare this role to her previous role as Annie? “Annie is optimistic and out there. She goes for it no matter what. Matilda is more proper and more calm.” Zach Wilson plays the

PROSPECTING

Democrat photos by Kevin Christensen

The Wine and Dine Group of Turlock checks the color of the 2017 Estate Reserve Petite Sirah to appreciate its brilliance at a wine salon hosted by El Dorado County winemaker Charles Mitchell.

What is a

wine salon?

Mimi Escabar Special publications editor

een invited to a wine tasting salon but not sure what to expect? Eight friends from Turlock ventured out to the Fair Play American Viticultural Area eager to discover what a tasting salon with Charles B. Mitchell, proprietor of Charles B. Mitchell Vineyards, would be like. The self-named Wine and Dine Group of Turlock encountered an afternoon of learning, sipping, munching and fun. “It was a great time. My wife and I have gone to other wine-related events and have had a good time but today we learned so much and have new knowledge about wine to make all wine experiences better,” Doug Mello said. Doug and Teri Mello were the instigators in organizing the sojourn to Charles B. Mitchell Vineyards. They had won a gift certificate for the semi-private tasting salon at a fundraiser for the agricultural department at California State University, Stanislaus. The Mellos invited fellow wine and dine enthusiasts Thad and Amy Phillips, Clay and Julie Davis and Darrell and Michelle DiGiovanni to partake in the salon. As the guests arrived at the tasting room they were greeted by Rayanne Frazier, office and marketing manager at the vineyard. She escorted the entourage into the barrel room where a beautifully appointed table artfully set with candles, crystal stemware and plates of small bites awaited the group. Mitchell then welcomed the guests and got right down to the fine points of the sipping and tasting experience. He has been presenting wine tasting salons for years and enjoys sharing his love of wine, food and history in a casual setting with an elegant flare to accentuate the well crafted wines and paired menu. He established the winery in 1994.

Salon time “The tasting order will follow the glasses left to right and food pairings will start at the top of the plate and continue clockwise,” Mitchell said. Wine is a passion and fascination for Mitchell and throughout the salon wine facts and stories were interjected into each pairing. The first offering was a 2018 Reserve Rosé with a sharp cheddar cheese and Italian herb flatbread crisps. Guests were instructed to put their noses in the bowl of the glass, then take a sip and swirl it before swallowing. Next try a taste of the cheese and then another taste of the rosé. “This is a syrah grape. We bleed the grape. We don’t press this red. This makes for a brilliant wine,” Mitchell said. “What I notice is wine is high in acid and the fat in foods like cheese offset the acid, making for a pleasing pairing.” Mitchell then commented on the influence of

Teri and Doug Mello of Turlock, above, were the organizers of the trip to Fair Play to attend a tasting salon and learn more about wine.

Michelle DiGiovanni, left, laughs as Charles Mitchell relates a humorous story about trying to construct a wine barrel during a tasting salon at Charles B. Mitchell Vineyards. France in his winemaking process. The south of France “was originally occupied by the Greeks and wine has been cultivated and made there for hundreds of years. France produces four times as much wine as the entire U.S. It is a culture there and I learn from their expertise. I am still learning.” The second pairing featured a 2018 Estate Reserve Sauvignon Blanc with artichoke antipasto, onions, garlic and cream cheese on pita crackers. “This particular Sauvignon Blanc is exciting to look at and goes well with the artichoke,” Mitchell commented. Frazier noted the 2018 Estate Reserve Sauvignon Blanc received a 92 point rating in the November 2019 issue of Wine Enthusiast and was an editor’s choice. “I tasted the difference from the first sip with no food and then the second sip after the food,” Teri declared.

Barrels of fun Mitchell next covered the art of barrel making and visits to different cooperages in France. “It is amazing how they construct the barrels. It takes them no time at all to put it all together. Myself and some of the staff tried to put together a barrel here at the winery and it took a long time and many hands,” the novice barrel maker said. Bella Rosa and a cheese trio quiche tantalized the group next. The attentive students held their glasses high to capture the beautiful color, another important factor in a lovely wine. Mitchell pointed out, “To create good wines you need to have patience.” Michelle DiGiovanni joined in, “I have plenty of patients. I am a nurse.” n

Blues band, touring singer/songwriter come to Feist Feist Wines News release

has appeared on vocals, cello and fiddle on records and stages with fellow songwriters Anais Mitchell, Lori McKenna, Chris Smither, Mary Gauthier, Erin McKeown, Winterpills, Peter Mulvey, Gregory Alan Isakov and many more. Delmhorst lives in western Massachusetts with singer Jeffrey Foucault and their young daughter. Unwilling to choose between a life and a career, she pursued both at once, a winding path that’s put her eclecticism and wanderlust at the forefront of each. Raised in Brooklyn, NY, Delmhorst studied classical cello and the ’80s FM dial before decamping to rural Maine to work as an organic farmer. Laid up with a broken ankle and no electricity in the dead of winter, she taught herself to play fiddle and later guitar, eventually writing her own songs. The winery offers wood fired pizza and small plates. Tickets are available online at feistwines.com or at the door.

UTTER CREEK — Feist Wines presents a weekend full of music to pair with award-winning wines. The intimate venue hosts local band The Allen Frank Trio at 7 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22, and East Coast singer/songwriter Kris Delmhorst accompanied by Austin Nevins on electric guitar at 6 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 23. The Allen Frank trio plays traditional and original blues with fervor. Frank has been performing on the West Coast for more than 30 years. Along with drummer Allen Kreutzer, he has carried his brand of blues across Northern California. The third in the trio is stand-up bass player Steve Doss. The trio’s sound is hip with a mix of blues standards and originals. Sometimes accompanying the band is keyboardist Joe Bellamy. whose stage presence embodies cool.

Delmhorst is hailed as “bold and brilliant” by the Boston Globe and “captivating” by Allmusic. She has released six, full-length records on respected indie label Signature Sounds — albums that range from intimate and acoustic to

Americana Ramble musician returns to Sacramento stage News release

emember the Americana Ramble, a popular, live roots music series produced by Swell Productions in the mid- 2000s and hosted by effervescent singer/songwriter Richard March? He’s back downtown and will bring his dazzling Americana California soul sound to The Russ Room, 730 K St. in Sacramento, 5-8 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22. March’s stellar propulsive band, together for four years since his return from his Peace Corp duty (2013-15), supports the deep, mature storytelling talents of both March and his long-time writing and singing music partner, bassist Tyler Ragle. Their time-honored “brothers vocal” sound is backed by Charlie Serrano (drums) from Southern California. He was in drumline in high school and was part of a very popular funk band at Humboldt State University. Serrano brought his long-time friend, former Michigander Brian Steckler (keys) into the band. Steckler is a film/TV composer and record producer. They will all be headed this spring to the historical Baxter Ranch studios in Auburn with Matt Baxter to make a long awaited recording. As a songwriter/storyteller, San Francisco-born March is part modern day throwback to the melodic, progressive country music stars of several decades ago when folks like Mickey Newbury, Kris Kristofferson and Glen Campbell were regularly heard on radio and seen on evening television. And with his new band, March has widened his

sound — Laurel Canyon-esque with clear nods to one of his heroes, Jackson Browne. March’s live performance skills have garnered him opening positions for Johnny Cash’s legendary backing band the Tennessee Three, folk icon Ramblin’ Jack Elliott, the popular Mississippi folk star Steve Forbert, bluesmen Nick Gravenites and John Hammond, Straycat Lee Rocker and western soul cult heroes the Hacienda Brothers. He is a Sacramento Area Music Award (SAMMIE) winner for Outstanding Male Vocalist, received a Best of Sacramento Award from Sacramento Magazine for Best Americana Artist and was awarded Best Locally Produced Album for “Levee Road” in the Sacramento News and Review’s 2007 Best Of issue. In June of 2013 March took a break from the performing life to fulfill his longtime dream of serving overseas as a Peace Corps volunteer. He was sent to Motta, Ethiopia, where he completed a very challenging, and rewarding 27 month service using music to support his teaching of English to both teachers and students. In December 2015 he returned to the Sacramento area and has begun performing again, while re-adjusting to the American pace of life. While Ethiopian musical influences are not yet found in his recent shows, what is evident is a storyteller with a renewed sense of presence in the moment, a hot band and purpose for the future.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916-939-0772 or visit this Internet Web site www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case 02019227. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

BUTTERED AND SALTY ‘The Call of the Wild HH 1/2 PG, 1 hour, 40 minutes Adventure, Drama, Family Opens today bout halfway Joshua B. Porter through Democrat correspondent the Disney/ Fox picture “The Call of the Wild” I started getting distracted by assessing how the almost 78-year-old Harrison Ford will look and sound doing the fifth Indiana Jones film, which starts shooting this summer. Such was my investment in the most recent adaptation of Jack London’s classic novel, a competent film that doesn’t offer anything particularly new in regards to either the source material of the family film genre. Set in the Yukon wilderness, “The Call of the Wild” is the most recent adaptation of Jack London’s short adventure novel, in which there have been several. I suppose the fresh take on this one is that there is a mostly computer-generated dog playing “Buck,” the St. Bernard–Scotch collie mix that is taken from his loving high society home in Santa Clara and forced to quickly learn to adapt to survive cold winter nights and live and work in a pack society on the Yukon Trail. The CGI is not bad, but it is noticeable in parts. They do a fairly good job of basing Buck’s behaviors on that of an actual dog, so there is no burying his head in his hands or solving mysteries the adults can figure out. This is more “Turner and Hooch” than “Scooby-Doo.” Apparently 20th Century Fox/20th Century Studios/ Disney used a combination of CGI and a real dog to create the personality of Buck. I personally think they should have leaned into using a real dog for 90 percent of the shoot and only used special effects to enhance a

look on the dog’s face or an attitude. It’s hard enough to re-create a human face. With a dog you have to lovingly re-create a lot of animal’s fur coat too. We are close in the special effects world but not quite there and it shows. Particularly in the eyes. The eyes give it away. The story is lovingly adapted by Michael Green (“Logan”) and directed by Chris Surrandon (“Lilo & Stitch,” “How to Train Your Dragon”). They mostly honor the source material well, though I question a couple of their changes to the novel, like how Buck was

taken from his family (which is much more realistic and sinister than in this version), but those complaints are few and far between. The story doesn’t have a large ensemble of characters, but what we do have is solid. When Buck is first taken up north he is purchased by two French-Canadian mail carriers who train him to be a sled dog. Cara Gee and Omar Sy play the postmasters and they bring a good amount of characterization to their limited screen time. There is a moustache-twirling villain, played by Colin Woodell, who is so one-dimensional you look forward to him being dispatched as quickly as possible. I recall the character being in the original novel, but a character being mean for meanness sake doesn’t translate to a well-rounded villain. The real draw here is Harrison Ford, who gives one of his better performances of the last few years. He is emotionally invested in this CGI dog, so kudos to Ford for bringing it. Age hasn’t hampered the relatability factor with Harrison, who continues to have that sparkle in the eye and sly smile to win over even the most cynical audience member. My main issue with this Fox holdover from the Disney acquisition is that it plays like a ‘90s family film. There’s nothing here we haven’t seen a million times in multiple versions of this story or films like it, with the exception of a GCI dog, which they probably should have used less of and leaned more heavily into a real canine. It is a charming film, but a safe one. For many that will be enough to justify a fun day at the movies with the kids. And for the record, Harrison Ford is in exceptional shape and yes, he will absolutely be able to play the whip-cracking archaeologist again. Joshua B. Porter is a writer/director/producer. His most recent project, the music video “When You Know” by the band Sunny State, can now be streamed on Youtube. He can be reached at @joshuabporter or joshuabporter@mtdemocrat.net.

Salon

Continued from B2

The Francophile patiently proceeded with the next pairing — 2017 Reserve Cabernet Franc and Italian dry salami. This big wine is softened by the salami — the acid and fat factor. At this juncture Mitchell pointed out, “Tanin is not a taste but a sensation.” The conversation turned to corks and Mitchell shared how he tried to make a cork on one of his trips to Europe. He said the craftsmanship is

impressive and he appreciates every cork he uses. On that note, Mitchell opened the 2017 Estate Reserve Petite Sirah, a 90 point recipient from Wine Enthusiast. This wine went with blueberry and vanilla goat cheese with pita crackers. “Petite Sirah is not petite. It is big, bold and beautiful. Hold it up to the light and see the dark rich color,” Mitchell instructed. After a sip and then taste with the food Doug said,

“Wow, that has some great flavor.” Amy Phillips just added, “Wow.” At the end of the salon everyone agreed they all learned so much and will enjoy wine even more than they already did. What is a wine tasting salon? It is a fun learning experience. Charles B. Mitchell Vineyards is located at 8221 Stony Creek Road in Fair Play.
