PETA Morally Bankrupt

Editor: Thank you for your illuminating cover story “Beasts and Children” (March 14) regarding “People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals” (PETA). While I firmly agree that treating animals and our other fellow life forms with respect, dignity and compassion is our moral duty as a (supposedly) intelligent species, I have nothing but contempt for PETA. The cover story by Jim Gorant in the Dec. 29, 2008, issue of Sports Illustrated details the saga of the Michael Vick dogs and what happened to them in the aftermath of his trial. To make a long story short (Gorant’s story is available online and well worth the read), PETA, along with the Humane Society of the U.S., advocated for the dogs to be euthanized. Thankfully, other more compassionate and wiser organizations prevailed. This was, in fact, the first time that fighting dogs had been considered “victims” by the court, rather than merely “evidence” to be destroyed after the trial. Of the 51 dogs seized, 47 were saved and only one was euthanized for being too violent. After rehabilitation work and training, most are now living in homes. A few have gone on to become therapy dogs and at least one is a dog agility champion. … All no thanks to PETA. As your story recommended, I too believe it is best for people concerned with animal welfare to donate to the many quality local animal rescues in our area. I prefer to use my hard-earned dollars to support groups that actually work to help animals rather than taking the easy way out by euthanizing them and then spending money on fancy advertisements.

PETA, in my humble opinion, is morally bankrupt, and I would not be sad to see them fiscally bankrupt as well.

Editor: I was a PETA kid, started animal rights groups in high school and college, went vegan, etc. However, the good/evil dichotomy got more complicated as I got older.

Many studies have demonstrated that each free-roaming pet cat can kill dozens of native animals, like birds and lizards,

per year. When we fostered kittens down south, there was a volunteer who created an enclosed play yard for her cats, but this is the exception to the rule. Only an estimated 35 percent of pet cats are indoor only.

So if we really love animals, should we save the dozens of native animals killed each year by a cat or do we save the cat that kills them? The problem with this question is that it is cerebral not emotional. Cats are the ones who are soft and cuddly, purr on our laps and play with toys. Wildlife doesn’t get that kind of marketing advantage. As one pet owner recently said of her cat, “he’s the cutest little serial killer you will ever meet.”

Natalia Collier, Arcata

Farms Worse Than PETA Editor: I enjoyed reading about Adara Lewis being selected as a finalist for PETA’s Cutest Vegan Kid contest. However, it appears the point of this article was to suggest PETA’s mission was killing homeless pets and to create a slanted bias against PETA. First, PETA does not have a shelter and uses mobile vans for spaying, neutering and euthanasia services to low income individuals.

It is unfair to compare the number of shelter animals adopted versus animals euthanized at the owner’s request. I contacted PETA and learned most of these euthanized animals were too ill to live and were severely neglected. I suggest you read PETA’s animal shelter section on their website. They explain the differences between good no-kill shelters and bad ones.

Their position favors having companion animals being adopted and placed in loving homes.

Perhaps instead of slighting PETA you could have focused on the 59 billion animals slaughtered annually on factory farms and questioned whether people should support them by buying meat at their local supermarkets. Animals are routinely abused by workers (see video “Glass Walls” at peta.org); many animals slaughtered are gutted alive; dairy cows have their babies taken away for veal or killed for leather. Pigs are unable to move in stalls; baby pigs are killed by being thumped on their heads. Male chicks can’t lay eggs and are gassed or thrown into dumpsters. Animals are fed 70 percent of

Editor: It was a pleasant surprise to see that the North Coast Journal had a medium level Sudoku puzzle in this week’s issue.

For the last few weeks it seems that you have focused mainly on the easy or very easy puzzles which, in my opinion, is a waste of valuable print space.

Do you really think that you are serving your readers’ best interests by dumbing them down with mediocre puzzles? Do you think the avid Sudoku puzzler finds any satisfaction turning the pages of your publication only to find that the dessert at the end of the meal is only gruel?

Editor: As Carrie Peyton Dahlberg points out, PETA has a small division that does hands-on work with animals in our community. Most of the animals we take in are society’s rejects; they are abused, sick, elderly, aggressive, unsocialized or otherwise unadoptable. We send most adoptable animals to high-traffic openadmission shelters. I invite readers to visit www.PETASaves.com to see some of the animals PETA has helped.

Unlike many “no-kill” shelters, which make their statistics look good by refusing to accept animals in need, shuffling animals off to hoarders posing as “rescues,” or sending animals out the door with incompetent or cruel people, PETA never turns away any animal who needs help. Virginia officials acknowledged this to USA Today, saying, “PETA will basically take anything that comes through the door, and other shelters won’t do that.”

Every caring person wants to end the need for euthanasia, but no amount of money can buy dogs and cats what they need most: loving, lifelong homes. That’s why PETA has spent millions tackling the

Watch Your Words

Editor: I admire Emily Carlson’s willingness to speak up (“Don’t Be Transphobic,” Mailbox, March 14). My only disagreement with her letter is the line that goes “in a journal that totes itself.” Totes? Carries itself around? Impersonates a carrying bag? I believe the word needed was touts. Webster defines “tout” as “to publicize aggressively.”

This brings me to my other objection to the writing in the North Coast Journal: writers who are not accurate in their use of words. A case in point is the recent article about young people going through a “right of passage,” by being on their mission here.

Writer, ask yourself: If they didn’t go on a “right of passage,” would it have been a “wrong of passage?”

A “left of passage?” I suspect they really go through a “rite of passage,” which Webster defines as “a ceremonial act or procedure customary in religious or

other solemn use.”

Repeatedly the NCJ has printed that someone “pulls on the reigns.” Can you, by using your hands, draw to a slower speed the tenures of a few rulers of countries, the way you can slow a horse with the leather straps attached to a horse’s bridle? Spell check isn’t going to help. You have to understand the concept.

I think we are losing the power of our own language by misusing it. Yes, a reader might be able to gloss over the mistaken use of a word, and understand the thing meant. But a writer should not rely on that gloss; a writer should be precise. Say what you mean. Capture my interest with your thoroughness, with your understanding of both your subject and your use of this language.

The Public’s Beeswax

A

jury this month declared guilty of corruption five former councilmembers of the city of Bell in Los Angeles County. For running a town that is a little larger than Eureka, with a similar percentage of people living in poverty, they had each received salaries more than 10 times what Eureka pays its city leaders. Bell’s former city manager has yet to be tried. He made about $800,000 a year, or five times the pay of Eureka’s city manager.

That story first broke when two reporters from the Los Angeles Times, Jeff Gottlieb and Ruben Vives, requested salary figures for city leaders under the California Public Records Act. That’s a law the Legislature enacted in 1968 to ensure that the state and local governments don’t keep things from the public.

States across the country have similar laws, many of which give the public greater access to government documents than does California.

The Bell convictions came in the middle of Sunshine Week, which is a national spotlight each year on government transparency.

I spent part of Sunshine Week, meanwhile, sitting in the dean of my college’s office at Humboldt State, defending my students’ right to request records from public agencies in the county. He and President Rollin Richmond had gotten hit with complaints from public officials irritated that a school project forced them to waste valuable time. After hearing me out, the dean was great. He agreed that the government officials needed to deal directly with the student journalists.

Each spring I teach investigative reporting to roughly 20 students. We form a team and I turn them loose on the community. But first, I think of a valid project for them to do. It has to involve examination of public records and interviews with people. The information we go after must help residents understand how their governments work and spend taxpayer dollars. And we need to be able to publish a story on it. If we can’t pass on our information to the public, there is no point in wasting the valuable time of the people we source. Here’s the message I try to instill in the class: Journalists can and should serve the public good.

This is the eighth such project. We’ve investigated the shutdown of an ice company critical to the local fishing industry; we read through every search warrant in the county court; we looked at fees at every school

8 North Coast Journal • Thursday, March 28, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

in the CalState system; we investigated a jail suicide. Each of these projects required negotiations with public agencies. The Department of Health and Human Services made it difficult to get interviews for the ice house story, but the next year, the public information officer worked with us to set up a system for viewing records and interviewing inspectors that would cause minimal disruption for the folks who work at the health department. The court clerk’s office made it difficult for us to view search warrants until we negotiated for a limited number of students to view records a limited number of hours each week. These negotiations teach students the careful balance between the public’s right to know and public agencies’ need to protect privacy and get public business done.

This is the first year I found myself in a triangle with the public agencies and the university administration.

Let me explain this year’s project. I wish I could claim that it was my idea but it wasn’t.

Journal Editor Carrie Peyton Dahlberg suggested that we look into payments public agencies make on legal claims — you know, when a tree on public land that borders your farm falls and crushes your dairy cow and you demand compensation. (We found one such case.) The project met my criteria on three points: It would involve public records and it would produce two types of information the public should know: How much agencies spend on these claims, and the types and frequency of economic or physical injuries people sustain as a result of government negligence or mistakes.

To be fair, I intended that students send the same letter to every agency in the county. This way we couldn’t be accused of targeting some agencies and ignoring others.

With a population of 130,000 people, how many public agencies could there be?

I stopped searching when I hit 70. I didn’t want to bother tiny districts or those so far flung that my students would have to drive two hours to look at documents, so I narrowed the list to 38. It included all of the larger school districts, all the cities, the county, HSU, College of the Redwoods and some community service districts. The latter I considered most important because they receive almost no oversight from local press.

Few people even know what they do. We limited our request to payments on claims for the past 10 years. We went back 10 years because some claims take years to work their way through the system.

Under the Public Records Act, agencies must respond to a request within 10 days, but after that, they have a “reasonable amount of time” to fulfill the request.

Determining what is reasonable is one of the prime lessons of the course. Some of the agencies we sent letters to responded immediately. Some, like the Harbor District, provided the information we requested in what seemed like record time. Other agencies freaked out. One district took offense to the hostile nature of the letter we sent — a boilerplate letter for public records act requests we downloaded from the website of the Student Press Law Center. Arcata City Councilmember and former mayor Alex Stillman complained to my husband when she ran into him in town.

When public officials complain to the university president or dean before contacting and negotiating with students directly, they send a message that Humboldt State students deserve less respect than other citizens of the county or other journalists who work here.

Yet these students are Humboldt County residents. They live here. Most work here, and they buy goods and services and pay sales taxes here. They are entitled to the same rights (and have the same responsibilities) as any other resident. The California Public Records Act notes that, saying: Access to information concerning the conduct of the people’s business is a fundamental and necessary right of every person in this state.”

Public agencies shouldn’t consider the requesting of public records a nuisance to be thwarted. They should recognize it as the fundamental and necessary right it is by law. If locating public records turns out to get in the way of public business, then we need to set up better systems for public access to records. Maybe that’s the lesson my students could teach Humboldt County — if only government officials would work with them.

I’m sure the officials in Bell considered Gottlieb and Vives a nuisance. Sometimes, for journalists to work for the public good, they have to be a pain in the butt.

101 Ways to Protest Despite tree-sits and nudes, Willits bypass churns on

By Heidi Walters

heidiwalters@northcoastjournal.com

I

t was closing on 5 p.m. last Friday, March 22. End of the day at the end of a traditional work week. But Amanda Senseman was talking to a reporter on one of her three cell phones while another rang incessantly and the third charged, sucking power from a small solar panel.

She is the “Warbler.” Except at night, when she sleeps, she hasn’t had a moment

Jack Gescheidt, of The TreeSpirit Project, and 40 people staged a demonstration last weekend in Willits, not far from Warbler's tree sit. "We peacefully made a lovely photo, 'Living Valley,' Gescheidt said. "For me, it's a celebration." Photograph © 2013 Jack

Gescheidt, TreeSpiritProject.com

to herself, most days, since Jan. 28, when she climbed into this Ponderosa pine tree alongside Highway 101 just outside Willits.

The 24-year-old tree-sitter has vowed she won’t leave work until either the law climbs up and brings her down or the California Department of Transportation agrees not to build a freeway through the Little Lake Valley to divert traffic around the city of Willits. Her tree, and the surrounding verdant

hills and pasture dotted with madrone, oak, pine and cattle, are in the path. Her tree-sit, two others that just sprang up nearby, and accompanying protests on the ground have contributed to off and on delays for Caltrans. In February, the agency began clearing brush and trees to build a fence between the projected freeway and lands that are to remain untouched.

The previous day, Thursday, about 50

dirt done cheap Royal gold mendo mix $1oo per cubic yard

protesters, some from Humboldt County, convened at the construction site to block bulldozers and brush-clearing equipment.

Dozens of California Highway Patrol officers also showed up.

“All of a sudden they started accumulating,” Senseman said, over the phone. “There were more than 20 officers here.”

She watched them shoo protestors to the other side of the highway, put up traffic cones to keep others from stopping, arrest eight on the ground who refused to quit blocking workers’ progress, and evict the base camp supplying her tree-sit. The CHP set up a watch near Senseman’s tree. The officers stayed all night. Then all this day, Friday. Now, she said over the phone, a few had left; the rest seemed to be settling in for another night.

Protests over the Willits bypass also spilled into the city’s streets last Thursday, when construction workers staged a protest against the anti-bypass protesters.

Meanwhile, a group called Save Little Lake Valley has been documenting it all; a petition is being circulated to stop the project; photographer Jack Gescheidt, who poses nudes in nature to take art (and sometimes political art) shots, arranged a nude photo shoot last weekend to, as Gescheidt said continued on next page

continued from previous page later, “demonstrate our love for Willits Valley”; and Caltrans started a blog to promote the project.

Caltrans says the $210 million bypass will reduce congestion through town by diverting much of the pass-through traffic. Opponents say most of the congestion in town is local, hasn’t increased in years — and won’t, at any rate, be fixed by this bypass. They say Caltrans failed to study less environmentally destructive bypass locations, especially two-lane ones — how about that railroad right-of-way through town? Caltrans says it examined at least 30 alternatives, including three using the railroad bed which could entail anything from tearing down houses to possibly moving the tracks. Opponents say the bypass will devastate businesses downtown and burden the city with maintaining the main street — Highway 101, which will be relinquished to the city by the state. Caltrans says the city will then be able to do what it wants downtown — close off the street for a fair, put in traffic calming circles. And so on.

The bypass idea is not new. Caltrans has been proposing traffic diversions to ease congestion there since the mid-1950s, says the agency’s website. Over the years, different bypass scenarios have arisen and fizzled, sometimes for lack of local support,

10 North Coast Journal • Thursday, March 28, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

other times lack of money. One piece of freeway did get built, in 1969, south of Willits. The current bypass effort started up in 1987. Ever since, it’s been one long round of documentation and approvals from various permitting agencies, public scoping sessions, alternatives presented and discarded, and occasional diversions of agency attention and funding to more urgent projects. Finally, the agency settled on building a 5.9-mile bypass through the valley east of town, with interchanges on each end. Environmental documents were completed, aired in public and approved. Land was purchased from ranchers and other property owners for the bypass, and for mitigation within the valley.

Contracts for the work were signed.

The project is envisioned as a four-lane expressway. But it will happen in two phases: First, the contractors will build two lanes on a four-lane expressway roadbed. Second, when there’s money for it, two more lanes will be added. Last May, several environmental groups and the California Farm Bureau sued Caltrans to stop the project. The suit alleges, among other things, that the agency failed to properly explore other realistic two-lane bypass options; that later construction to make it four-lane would further disrupt the environment; and that the two-lane design shift arose after completion of the environmental impact statement — so a supplemental document was in order. The suit also complained that no funding had been

committed for mitigation, nor had a detailed mitigation plan been vetted. In November, a judge denied the groups’ request for a preliminary injunction to stop the construction, saying they hadn’t proved they were likely to win the suit, nor that an injunction suited the public interest, according to a report from the Willits News.

Mendocino County Farm Bureau Executive Director Devon Jones said last week that the bureau is not against the bypass project.

“We’re just trying to find a way to minimize impacts to agriculture,” she said. “And we want to make sure this does not establish a precedent for other Caltrans projects in the state.”

As mitigation for the loss of 60 acres of wetland to the project, Caltrans bought 2,000 acres of valley land. Much of it was under assorted leases to ranchers and amounted to about 25 percent of the total farmland in the Little Lake Valley, said Jones.

Caltrans spokesperson Phil Frisbie said by phone last week that 400 of the 2,000 acres will be retired from production and restored to a natural state. Invasive species removal, and fencing to protect the creeks from cows and their trampling hooves, will begin this summer. The remaining 1,600 acres likely will undergo a more restricted regime of grazing, and under one lessee instead of several, Frisbie said. All 2,000 acres will be managed by the Mendocino Resource Conservation District, and monitored regularly by the

California Department of Fish and Wildlife, he said.

Jones said ranchers who lost their leases will have trouble finding new grazing land to move their cattle to. And, she said, the bureau is worried about the huge ratio of mitigated lands to lost wetlands. Would other projects in the state require similar, henceforth?

Frisbie agreed the ratio is large.

“The preferred way to mitigate for wetlands is for every acre you impact you create or restore two acres,” he said.

That’s the rule agreed on by the Environmental Protection Agency and Army Corps of Engineers. In 2006, Frisbie said, the EPA issued new guidelines that said if there are no wetland areas to restore, project managers could do what’s called “watershed enhancement” using other acres. This alternative requires a much larger ratio, Frisbie said. And that’s the route Caltrans chose in Little Lake Valley, where there aren’t enough would-be wetlands to make up for those lost.

The next court hearing in the bypass lawsuit against Caltrans is June 7.

Of late, environmentalists have accused Caltrans of defying federal law that protects migrating birds by doing construction during nesting season, which recently began. In fact, the project did stop for several weeks while the agency reworked its bird nest survey protocols with state Fish and Wildlife, Frisbie said. But as long as Caltrans follows

the protocols, it can continue the work.

“We are following all state and federal laws,” he said.

Protestors sent out angry email alerts late last week, after the CHP descended in force to the tree-sit areas and routes leading to them.

“We had been stopped by people trespassing several times over the last couple weeks, putting themselves in harm’s way in front of equipment,” said Frisbie. “This is really a safety issue.”

Last Friday, up in her tree, Senseman was watching the cops below her and pondering what the night would bring. Fifteen minutes earlier, she said, a woman from Caltrans had arrived, raised a bullhorn to her lips, identified herself — Senseman couldn’t remember her name — and shouted: “To the woman in the tree. … You are trespassing. If you do not leave immediately, Caltrans will deploy CHP officers to remove you.”

SANGAY PHUENTSHO INSTALLS A GRIDSHARE CIRCUIT ON A HOME IN BHUTAN.

HUMBOLDT STATE, TECHNOLOGY / BY HEIDI WALTERS / MARCH 22, 2:28 P.M.

Brownouts, Be Gone Humboldt State University students designed a cool device to try to help the 50 million households in the world relying on renewable energy mini-grids avoid brownouts by distributing their load on the grid more evenly. And it seems to work.

They conceived the grid-share idea, reports Environmental Research Web, when HSU grad student Karma Dorji, who’s from the Bhutan, explained the problem that people in his country were having, notes the story: Many villages in Bhutan have micro hydroelectric mini-grids and brownouts are common, particularly first thing in the morning when people are heating water and in the early evening when people are cooking rice.

The students designed a device that tells a homeowner the status of the grid capacity at any given moment. If it’s normal, then it’s a good time to cook. If a brownout’s pending, then maybe the cooking can wait. The device was used in a pilot project in the Bhutan: The data showed that severe brownouts were reduced by over 92% after the GridShare devices were installed.

The results of the pilot project were published in the January-March 2013 Environmental Research Letters. ●

Clint’s Our Man! The San Francisco Chronicle has a feature today about Humboldt County cattleman Clint Victorine, who raises organic grass-fed beef down in the Eel River Valley.

It’s a modern-day rags-to-riches — or niches — tale. Local boy wants to raise cattle. Has no family spread to inherit.

Old-timers tell him it can’t be done. He does it anyway, and has 40 head of cattle by the time he’s heading for college.

Comes back, still talking crazy about raising more cattle. Old timers shake their heads. But others say, organic’s where you gotta be. Then the old folks say, hell, you’ll

And compete with the big boys? Bah. Well, he did it, went organic — with help from others, including a Headwaters Forest grant, and a partnership with a fellow who knows the food-brokering ropes, Bill Carman, says the story. And now: Now, he runs his herd — about 5,000 head — on the 6,000 acres he leases and the 200 he owns in Loleta. Whole Foods Market in Southern California is their largest account. In Northern California they sell Eel River or Pacific Pastures to independent stores, including Mollie Stone’s, Draeger’s and Andronico’s.”

Wiyot Still In For Gambling Win What’s this? Gov. Brown is announcing the signing of a gaming compact with the Wiyot Tribe? When said compact was signed first by Gov. Schwarzenegger in April 2008, after a nine-year’s-long slog toward said agreement, according to the tribe’s announcement at the time on its website? (See our coverage from back then.)

What it is, is evidence of yet more slogging toward gambling-rewards heaven.

According to the 2008 compact, the

12 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

Wiyot Tribe relinquishes any right to build a casino on its Humboldt Bay lands — that it is, it agrees to not be a “gaming tribe.” Instead, the 800-member Wiyot Tribe will be given some of the revenues generated by the 1,900-member North Fork Rancheria Tribe’s proposed casino — around $3-5 million a year might go to the Wiyot out of the estimated $100 million generated a year by the casino.

The North Fork Rancheria Tribe, in the Sierra foothills of Madera County, in its related compact to have land taken into trust by the federal government to build the casino upon, also agrees not to build gambling digs on other, environmentally sensitive lands. And, according to that tribe’s website, it will be sharing gambling revenues not just with the Wiyot, but with other non-gaming tribes in the state.

The details appear to be much the same in today’s newly re-signed compact, if what’s written on the North Fork Rancheria’s website is any indication. Brian Mead, Wiyot tribal administrator, when reached by phone today said he couldn’t say anything about it without permission from the tribal council or chairman.

What’s new, it seems, is that the latest governor has concurred with federal findings that the casino promises more benefits than ills to all involved, according to the North Fork Rancheria: The new compact replaces the earlier compact negotiated and signed by Governor Schwarzenegger … . The compact also includes provisions to mitigate the potential economic impacts of the North Fork project on the Chukchansi Indian Tribe.

More steps remain: The Department of Interior has to finish the process of taking the land into trust for the rancheria, and both the state legislature and the Secretary of the Interior have to ratify the new state tribal gaming compact. ● CRIME / BY HEIDI WALTERS / MARCH 21, 12:02 P.M.

Cart Patrol The Eureka Police Department has made another one of its routine “special operation” sweeps of the city to round up errant shopping carts, says a release from the department today: … numerous subjects were contacted and over 100 shopping carts were recovered. Four subjects were cited and released for misappropriation of property and one subject was arrested for an outstanding warrant for drug related charges. The estimated value of the recovered shopping carts was $18,000.00.

These roundups happen after the

As for those who nab the carts, wheel them off into illicit duty as personal-stuff haulers and fort fortifiers and such, no doubt they deserve the sharp words and citations the police throw at them when they’re caught.

But that doesn’t mean they don’t need some sort of help. Remember the outdoor hoarder of a couple years back, who seemed to specialize in shopping cart repurposing? Dozens and dozens of carts trundled into the bushes and swamps of Eureka’s behind-buildings lands. That poor fellow seemed cart-addicted.

It will threaten you, of course: “The work of your computer has been suspended on the grounds of the violation of the law of the United States of America.”

And it will block your computer. Tell you how to pay that $300 fine in order to get unblocked (using what’s called a MoneyPak code through a major retailer such as Kmart or Wal-Mart).

Resist. Think back to the early days of the Patriot Act when you strode righteously into the county library and checked out every book you thought might be deemed subversive, or when you drew nuclear power plant cooling towers on cocktail napkins then tried to claim they were just bawdy doodles.

HumCPR L Rising How Lee Ulansey and his corporation moved from advocacy into county government

By Ryan Burns

14 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MARCH 28, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

ee Ulansey was drawn into the world of Humboldt County politics during a bizarre game of brinkmanship back in 2007. The stakes were local, including thousands of acres of timberland, but the game was being played in a courtroom on Texas’ Gulf Coast. It was the bankruptcy trial of Pacific Lumber Co., which, under the stewardship of Charles Hurwitz and his Houston-based Maxxam Corp., had spent 20-plus years operating like some rapacious clear-cutting machine straight out of The Lorax.

Now drowning in debt, Pacific Lumber presented the bankruptcy judge with an audacious proposal: The company could cash out its remaining chips and pay off its creditors by subdividing some 22,000 acres of Humboldt County timberland, chopping it into 160-acre parcels and selling them as “kingdoms” for the uber-rich.

The affluent buyers could then build their dream mansions in the forest because in Humboldt County, unlike some other rural counties in the state, single-family residences are allowable on land zoned for timber production (TPZ). All you need is a building permit.

But the Board of Supervisors, which was following the trial closely, didn’t want all of that viable timberland subdivided; it didn’t want a bunch of new homes built in the hinterlands; and moreover, it didn’t want any more dealings with the loathed Maxxam Corp. And so, in a bold counter-maneuver, the board enacted a 45-day moratorium on building permits for TPZ land.

In doing so it hoped to send the Texas judge a message — that Pacific Lumber’s mega-ranch liquidation sale would not be tolerated.

It seemed to work: The judge rejected Pacific Lumber’s proposal, and eventually the company was dismantled, its assets awarded to the Marathon Capital Group and Mendocino Redwood Co. But the TPZ moratorium — and a subsequent flirtation by the left-leaning board with permanently tightening homebuilding restrictions for TPZ land — had

a dramatic side effect: It pissed certain people off something fierce, among them Lee Ulansey.

Although many environmental advocates supported the change as a way to protect rural watersheds and wildlife, property rights advocates, including many of Humboldt County’s 1,700 owners of TPZ land, saw it as a threat to their property values and way of life. They considered themselves stewards of their own land, and their right to build on it sacrosanct.

Ulansey, a Kneeland resident who identifies himself as an artist and woodworker, responded by founding the Humboldt Coalition for Property Rights, or HumCPR, a group that quickly attracted commercial developers, contractors and Realtors along with SoHum pot growers and backto-the-land homesteaders, an unlikely alliance bound by a mutual distrust of the government.

In the years since its formation, HumCPR has become an ever-more-powerful — and secretive — political force. With financial support from its members, whose names it won’t reveal, the organization has produced and distributed tens of thousands of newsletters filled with warnings about an assault on rural lifestyles. In recent election cycles it has harnessed the resources of sympathetic wealthy developers to flood the campaign coffers of its chosen political candidates. It has called for the removal of planning department leadership and accused county staff, the Planning Commission and various environmental groups of “social engineering” and “forcing our children into cities.” One year, a handful of the group’s most active members got appointed to the Grand Jury, where they had subpoena powers to continue the campaign against county officials and staff. All the while, HumCPR has worked hard to influence the general plan update, and it has filed two lawsuits against the county that have yet to be fully resolved.

And now the group’s three most prominent members have become policymakers

in county government, filling one fourth of the 12 available seats on the Planning Commission and Board of Supervisors. On Jan. 7, Estelle Fennell, who spent almost three years as HumCPR’s executive director, assumed the Second District seat on the Board of Supervisors. A week later she appointed to the Planning Commission professional forester/real estate investor Bob Morris, who remains listed as HumCPR’s treasurer and agent of service. And late last month the board voted 3-1-1, with Supervisor Mark Lovelace dissenting and Supervisor Ryan Sundberg abstaining, to appoint Ulansey himself to the Planning Commission.

With the long, long-overdue general plan update still under review by the board, and with the Planning Commission yet to craft the details of that plan through zoning ordinances, HumCPR’s rise to power comes at a very opportune moment for shaping the county’s future.

With his burly physique, a

mountain-man beard and hair like steel wool, Ulansey cuts a striking figure. Visually he’d fit in as a prospector on HBO’s Deadwood or, if you add Birkenstocks and tie dye, standing in the beer line at an outdoor blues festival. Friends say he’s smart, passionate and politically savvy.

Adversaries say he’s hot-tempered, vindictive and devious.

After graduating from Beverly Hills High School in 1978, Ulansey moved to Humboldt County where he took classes at both College of the Redwoods and Humboldt State University. A few years later he moved back to Southern California, attending Pepperdine University in Malibu from 1982-1985 and earning a bachelor’s

degree in business administration. (This information, from Pepperdine University records, differs slightly from the résumé Ulansey provided to the county, which gives his Pepperdine enrollment dates as 1981-1983 and describes a degree in both business administration and economics.)

Though he lists his occupation as an artist and woodworker, Ulansey spent years working as a property manager for the Eureka-based commercial real estate firm Carrington Co. He now owns or coowns more than $2 million worth of property in Humboldt County. His holdings include commercial real estate (he owns a storefront on Main Street in Fortuna and half a block of businesses on Eureka’s Fifth Street, including the HumCPR office) as well as several Eureka apartment buildings and nearly 200 acres of redwood TPZ land on Greenwood Heights Drive in Kneeland, where he lives.

When the Journal first called Ulansey and requested an interview for this story, he hesitated, remaining silent for almost 30 seconds before saying he needed to give it some thought and check his schedule. Over the next two weeks, Ulansey did not respond to numerous voice messages and emails. Early last week he sent Journal Publisher Judy Hodgson an email declining the interview request. He expressed concerns about his views being portrayed fairly and accurately.

In response, the Journal offered to post two audio files of the entire interview on our website — one recorded by Ulansey and the other by the Journal. He again declined, saying in an email that it would be too troublesome for readers to find and listen to the audio files.

partnering with

able in newsletters and online, the Journal was mostly hoping to ask Ulansey about his behind-the-scenes political organizing. It is widely rumored that Ulansey has worked as a political operative of sorts alongside Rob McBeth, co-owner of Arcata-based industrial fabrication company O & M Industries.

What’s known is that during the last few election cycles the duo made personal visits to several candidates and potential candidates, urging them to either support their property rights agenda or step aside for someone who would.

Annette de Modena, a reSECOND DISTRICT SUPERVISOR ESTELLE FENNELL tired teacher and Republican who ran for the First District did end up with an opponent, losing the Supervisor seat against Rex Bohn and election narrowly to former HumCPR Cheryl Seidner last year, said Ulansey and head Fennell.

McBeth came to her home very early in Before voting to appoint Ulansey, the campaign, ostensibly to see if she was Supervisor Virginia Bass admitted that someone they wanted to support. She she had concerns about him, but she said never heard from them again — “never that after meeting with him and asking gave me the courtesy of a phone call,” she some tough questions she felt reassured. said.

stained from the vote because he wanted a candidate from McKinleyville, told the Journal that he thinks Ulansey is “a nice guy” and “a smart guy.”

“I think he’ll be very strong on property rights,” Sundberg added.

In financial disclosure statements to the county Ulansey values the three TPZ parcels he owns on Greenwood Heights at more than a million dollars. And his tax records reveal the value of developing such land. Last year, for example, he was assessed just $7,040 on a 40-acre parcel of redwood timberland. Another $9,856 was assessed for an adjacent 51-acre parcel. But the third parcel, which was purchased from Simpson Timber in 2001, was assessed at $522,336, more than threequarters of which was for a house that the Ulanseys built in 2002.

Before Ulansey applied to be a planning commissioner, before he hired Estelle Fennell to run his corporation, before he even launched HumCPR, he submitted a request to the county concerning his TPZ property. This request was made on Oct. 11, 2007, just two days after the Board of Supervisors issued its 45-day moratorium on TPZ building permits.

Ulansey asked to have about 30 acres of his TPZ land rezoned as residential agriculture or agriculture general, so that it could be split up into parcels as small as 2½ acres, with the potential for a house on each one. The request went before the Planning Commission, which recommended to the Board of Supervisors that the land remain zoned TPZ. But since the request is related to land use it is now attached as an amendment to the general plan update. The board has yet to rule on his request.

Property rights,

of course, are a complicated thing. Does my right to do anything I want on my property let me dump a reeking cow carcass in the creek that provides my downstream neighbor’s drinking water? Does my right to build a new subdivision entitle me to create a bunch more traffic on your quiet street, or do I have to make amends by paying for a traffic signal? In public policy circles, liberals sometimes accuse conservative business people of wanting to socialize costs while privatizing benefits. That is, taxpayers pay for the costs of growth, while landowners or business owners pocket the profit. Developers of big projects often counter that growth helps everyone, creating more jobs and continued on page 19

continued from page 16 a stronger economy. Landowners often say that limiting what they can do on their property is pretty much the same as taking it without paying for it. (This was the position the other HumCPR official who is now a planning commissioner, Bob Morris, took in 2003 with an unsuccessful lawsuit against the federal government for preventing him from cutting down old-growth redwood trees.) From all sides, it’s a complicated equation — who has the right to use his own property in ways that make a neighbor miserable? And how miserable? Is a river drained dry OK? Are toxins in the groundwater OK? When does it stop being fair?

Ulansey outlined the HumCPR position in its spring 2009 newsletter.

“HumCPR has evolved from the basic premise that the people of Humboldt, not a few bureaucrats, should have the absolute choice over where and how we live our lives,” he wrote in a column that bore his picture.

• Fencing • Furniture • Plumbing • Flooring • Carpeting • Lighting

Absolute choice.

Around that message, Ulansey has rallied a diverse coalition of those who disdain government and those who could profit greatly from less of it. Kirk, who also writes the blog SoHum Parlance II, said Ulansey has cleverly tapped into southern Humboldt’s independent streak and developers’ anti-regulation streak and united them under the banner of rural issues.

Kirk sees a distinction between what he calls “HumCPR right” — developers, foresters and real estate agents such as Bob Morris, Ben Shepherd and Tina Christensen — and “HumCPR left” — people like Peter Childs, a progressive Democrat living in Miranda, and Charley Custer, whom the San Francisco Chronicle profiled in a story called “Charley Custer, Humboldt County pot grower.”

“What HumCPR did, and I think this is political brilliance on the part of Lee … is he put this coalition together way back when the code enforcement stuff

started happening,” Kirk said. That “stuff” was the campaign by armed and overzealous county agents who roamed the hills, raiding rural residences and enraging locals before the Board of Supervisors reined them in a few years ago.

Kirk said that the “back-to-the-land hippies” of southern Humboldt differ from their more urban counterparts.

Many of them moved here in the 1960s and ’70s, settling on agricultural parcels that may or may not have been legally subdivided. (The practice continued into this century: In 2000, landowner Bob McKee split up the 13,000-acre Tooby Ranch and sold 49 large parcels. A county lawsuit against McKee has yet to be resolved.)

SoHum residents may be socially progressive, Kirk said, but they have a libertarian attitude toward government, and they take pride in their land. “To suggest that their lifestyle might actually be detrimental environmentally, that’s just not a

concept that a lot of them are willing to stomach,” he said.

“And then on top of that,” said Kym Kemp, another SoHum resident and blogger, “people became marijuana growers, and the government was their absolute enemy.” Kemp cited Operation Green Sweep as particularly traumatic for locals.

The 1990 federal anti-marijuana campaign brought black helicopters and more than 200 armed feds to the county, including National Guardsmen and a 60-soldier Army unit fresh from invading Panama.

(Kemp remembers having a gun drawn on her that summer while she walked down a rural road.)

“We have different experiences and attitudes,” Kemp said. Southern Humboldt folks “don’t trust the government to come in and do right by the hill people.”

continued from previous page Shane Brinton described the group as “an unholy alliance” of pot growers and developers.

“The linkage there, really, is buyers and sellers of property,” said former supervisor Clendenen. “Both stand to gain.”

Kemp believes that most of Fennell’s supporters cared less about her tenure as executive director of HumCPR than they did about the years she spent as KMUD radio’s news director, when she often gave listeners the heads-up about impending drug raids and forest fires. “She was a friend, a voice in their living room who could be trusted to tell them the truth,” Kemp said.

Like Ulansey, Fennell was reluctant to grant an interview request. Ultimately she agreed to answer questions only if they were submitted via email. The response she sent several days later left most of the questions unanswered. She wrote, “I reject the manufactured concerns of my political foes” and added that she has full confidence that Ulansey and Morris “will carry out their duties in a professional and ethical way.”

It certainly didn’t hurt Fennell’s campaign to have the financial backing of a long list of donors from the business community, many of whom also made big contributions to Supervisors Bass, Sundberg and Rex Bohn. As the Journal reported previously (see “Interested Parties,” Oct. 14, 2010, and “District Soup,” May 10, 2012) these donors have deep pockets and remarkably lockstep patterns to their contributions.

county has set aside only 158,000 acres for rural homesteads. “This seems like a large number, but let’s analyze it in a little more detail,” Morris wrote. “The County is comprised of approximately 2,300,000 acres, so it is apparent that 93.2% of the County is OFF LIMITS for ‘rural homesteads.’”

These limits have financial significance for Morris, whose extensive land holdings exceed even Ulansey’s. He personally owns hundreds of acres of TPZ land and has invested in another 1,000-plus acres through investment groups, limited liability companies and land holding entities.

Morris did not respond to half a dozen messages left on his voicemail over a period of two weeks.

After years of loud and public calls to action, HumCPR is coming under increasing scrutiny of critics who say it doesn’t walk its own talk.

For example: • When HumCPR took on the Resources Legacy Fund Foundation, Ulansey called it a “shadowy” group. And yet, like all nonprofits, the foundation must report its finances annually to the IRS and they’re readily available online. HumCPR, on the other hand, is a private corporation, classified by the state as a “business entity.” As such, its finances are kept hidden from public view. The company is answerable only to its secret financiers. HumCPR does not disclose salaries, its meetings are not open to the public, and its membership is a closely guarded secret. (A list of members used to be listed on HumCPR’s website, but it was removed years ago.) If the nonprofit Resources

Foundation is a “shadowy” group, then HumCPR is completely opaque.

• HumCPR called on Supervisor Mark Lovelace to recuse himself from all general plan deliberations because he once served as the executive director of Healthy Humboldt, an environmental coalition which was partly funded by the Resources Legacy Fund Foundation. His refusal to do so is “inherently wrong ethically and morally,” the organization’s board wrote in a newsletter last summer. And in last year’s supervisorial campaign, the HumCPR board said that since Fennell might also be looked on has having a conflict, “We have the utmost in confidence that a Supervisor Fennell would immediately recuse herself from discussion and/ or votes.” Now that Fennell holds that seat, neither Ulansey nor Morris nor anyone else with HumCPR has called on her to recuse herself from voting on the general plan. Asked twice, in two separate emails, whether Ulansey or Morris should recuse themselves from any votes, Fennell declined to respond directly, writing only that many public officials have strong feelings about building on TPZ land. “Should those who represent one point of view be favored over others on a commission that is supposed to represent the whole of Humboldt County’s citizenry?” she asked.

• At least five members of HumCPR served on the 19-member 2009 Grand Jury. That jury concluded, among other things, that the county needs to manage its money better, should create an audit committee, and should wring out inefficiencies by having the Board of Supervisors delegate all day-to-day operations to a CEO/manager. HumCPR criticized the county for brushing off the panel’s suggestions. “It is not an appropriate response to a year’s inves-

tigation done by dedicated Jurors,” the board grumbled in its newsletter. “The Jurors are citizen volunteers looking at data from an impartial viewpoint.”

Nowhere in the newsletter did HumCPR disclose that that that “impartial” viewpoint came from jurors who were members of its own leadership, including Morris and Ulansey.

• HumCPR supporters and other property rights advocates often suggest going back to the county’s “framework” general plan, which was written in 1984 (and is so out of date that it no longer complies with state law). But in fact, that plan actually set aside even less land for remote rural development — 131,000 acres — than the county’s current level. It also contains a number of concepts that have recently been attributed to environmental extremists, including “clustering development” near existing services and discouraging residential subdivisions on resource land. Which raises the question — what exactly does HumCPR want?

During its rise to power, one

of HumCPR’s frequent strategies was to dismiss and belittle government. Now its officials and former officials are part of that government.

Much of the fine tuning for the county’s land use rules will eventually be handed back to the Planning Commission, which now includes Ulansey and Morris.

Disputed issues could rise to the Board of Supervisors, which now includes Fennell and many who received donations from HumCPR allies.

According to Senior Planner Michael Richardson, the county will ask the Planning Commission to weigh in on whether to require a conditional use permit to build houses on TPZ land or whether such homes should be principally permit-

ted, meaning they require only a building permit.

The state gives significant tax breaks to TPZ landowners in exchange for their commitment to maintain timber production on that land. Counties can make their own rules about building homes on TPZ land. Some rural counties, including Del Norte, Shasta and Trinity, require both a building permit and a conditional use permit. Others, including Humboldt and Mendocino, consider homes on TPZ to be principally permitted.

Given their former zero-tolerance policy for conflicts of interest, the Journal had been eager to ask Ulansey and Morris how they feel now about whether to recuse themselves from any of these deliberations. We remain open to scheduling any follow-up interviews.

Environmental groups will be watching closely, and if the updated general plan falls short of their standards, lawsuits are likely to follow. Gary Graham Hughes, executive director of the Environmental Protection Information Center (EPIC), said his group has been telling the county that it needs to develop a habitat conservation plan, “and there’s been no indication that there’s movement in that direction.”

Hughes said he doesn’t want to discount the possibility of working with “nontraditional allies,” but he couldn’t help but wonder what people would say if a leader of EPIC had been appointed to the Planning Commission.

But Eric Kirk, the SoHum blogger and lawyer, said he’d be surprised if Ulansey, Morris and Fennell govern in the same fiery way that they led HumCPR. Holding public office tends to have a moderating effect, Kirk said. “I do think that people from HumCPR understand that politics can change on a dime. … The group that has come to power, they’re savvy enough to realize that they could lose it quickly.

They could lose it just as quickly as they took it.” l

andolinist David Tiller spent years playing with the band ThaMusement. Around the turn of the century, that band went on hiatus and David headed for New York City. While busking in the subway he met a New York banjo picker. Would he like to join in a weekly session at a Brooklyn club? Saying yes led him to meet a fiddler with a rich, beautiful voice, Enion Pelta, another busker invited by the banjo man. By mid-2001, David and Enion had clicked musically and fallen in love. Then the world changed.

“We were on a rooftop right across the river on 9/11,” David recalled. “We sat and wrote music as the towers burned. We decided that day we’d move, but we couldn’t get out for a while since they’d imposed martial law.”

Next stop Portland, where David had some music family. That’s where they founded Taarka with a succession of guitar and bass players. David and Enion are brilliant players; they weave notes into intricate patterns and write deep lyrics together. Taarka’s vagabond sound draws on American folk and hints of bluegrass merged with Django gypsy jazz a la Hot Club of Paris. Although they’re now settled in Lyons, Colo., “We’ve been a family of travelers,” said David. Thus the title of the superb new record, Adventures In Vagabondia, although road trips are less frequent with their 5-year-old.

The Taarka family is on the road again this week with longtime bassist Troy Robie and guitarist Greg Ruby from Hot Club Sandwich. You should go hear them Friday night at the Arcata Playhouse.

Lotus is another of those post-rock jamband meets electro-dance outfits where guitars mesh with synthesizers, live and electro-drums, heavy basslines and cool samples. The band moved into the upper echelons through relentless touring and an association with String Cheese’s Sci-Fidelity label, now playing mega shows like Bonnaroo, Rothbury and Outside Lands. World Famous brings Lotus to the relatively intimate Arcata Theatre Lounge Thursday night with Denver-based dubstep king, VibesquaD. Striped Pig Stringband plays old time music Thursday at the Logger with some special support including Lyndsey Battle and Cory Goldman, and Erin Inglish, a Scruggs-style banjo picker from San Luis Obispo who is launching her EarthBikeBanjo 2013 tour in Blue Lake. The Kickstarter-funded journey presents “One new album. One banjo. One bicycle. One woman. One month. 1,000 miles,” as she bikes from here to San Diego, visiting schools and playing music, spreading a message of sustainability with A Melody So Sweet.

The Logger Bar roars on Friday with the trio Crag Dweller and the duo Mammoth Salmon down from Portland, bringing

intense sludge and doom with locals White Manna adding even more power and beauty.

Rooster McClintock is across town at Mad River Brewery earlier that night laying down downhome honky tonk.

My favorite local rapper (and coworker) The L|A Dodger makes one of her rare appearances Friday at The Siren’s Song alongside her electro-rockin’ friends Body Academics and Angel “Onhell” RubioHale. Onhell is about to embark on an international journey of discovery, so catch him while you can. Jolly Jeff from Body Academics and his friend Big Sean are both celebrating birthdays, so expect a par-tee!

It’s Easter weekend, which also makes March 29 Good Friday or, as the Beat Vixens put it, “So Bad It’s Good, Friday” at Nocturnum. The burlesque troupe teases with a “sexy sassy dance performance” followed by sexy sassy dancing by you, with Deep Groovers Jsun and Touch providing the soundtrack. Proceeds benefit the Pink Ribbon Program offering free “post operative workout enhancing recovery” to HumCo cancer survivors.

Speaking of benefits, Gunsafe plays one Friday at Humboldt Brews for Trillium School (Stella‘s darling boy goes there).

Side Shots open. Not sure who that is; I was guessing Gunsafe side project, but it’s not.

Green & Lilac play Friday at Robert Goodman and Saturday at Blondie’s. The group started out with Jesse Shrader on cello and Kim Kumada on guitar and added a fiddle until the fiddler left for Bhutan. Second guitar Max Tanti and uke player Jessica Malone came aboard to fill out the sound. “And all of us sing as well,” said Jesse, noting, “Kim and I used to play in another little band — Green & Lilac is quieter with more vocal harmonies, but she still adds a little bit of punk rock influence, so there’s a little tension in there.”

G&L shares the bill at Blondie’s with SoCal song slinger Marc B, who according to Jesse has a Jack Johnson-ish “island feel.”

Tahoe-based alt. Americana quintet, Dead Winter Carpenters, plays Humboldt Brews Saturday night on a CD release tour for the band’s latest, ain’t it strange (another Kickstarter project). DWC has a rich, rough-hewn sound with electric and acoustic guitars, fiddle, stand-up bass and drums playing whatever-grass with shades of reggae and other sounds in the mix.

Good stuff.

The Northcoast Environmental Center presents An Evening of Art and Song Saturday at the Arcata Playhouse featuring eco-groovy Seattle songwriter Jim Page, who describes himself as a “human organism with western hemispheric polar disorder, of middle class origin, using music as a tool for constructive cultural argument.”

The art part comes from Patricia “Perta”

Sennott, who paints birds, flowers, butterflies and other beautiful things from nature. NEC stalwart Morgan Corviday and her musical partner Mo Hollis add to the eco-party.

Also very eco-groovy: the 15th annual Humboldt Seed and Plant Exchange earlier that day at the Arcata Community Center with local farmers and gardeners swapping seeds, starts and plants in general. There’s also music all day including Lyndsey Battle, Jim Silva, Our Weight in Gold and The Bret Harte Breakers.

Local cyber-pioneer and energy activist “Redwood” Larry Goldberg celebrates his 60th birthday at the Bayside Grange Saturday night with a benefit for Transition Humboldt featuring two cool tribute bands, Silver Hammer (Beatles) and The Miracle Show (Dead).

Guitarist Greg Camphuis and friends play acid jazz Saturday at the Clam Beach Inn under the moniker Fire It Up! The reggae vibe is ever-present in Humboldt: Feel it Saturday night at the Red Fox with a big show by semi-local Stevie Culture (originally from Jamaica) backed by The Demolition Squad. Then on Wednesday (April 3) the reggae party is at Six Rivers with Pato Banton bringing his upbeat positivity.

Soul on a Saturday night? Choose between True Gospel Singers playing soul and blues at Old Town Coffee, Soulful Sidekicks at Ramone’s on Harrison (on the folk side) and Vintage Rock ‘n’ Soul, whose the name says it all, at Cher-Ae Heights. (Vintage also plays Cher-Ae Heights Friday.)

Lemon Lemon Cherry is a new experimental folk-jazz collaboration with Anwyn Halliday from Space Biscuit and Small Axe on trumpet, French horn, glockenspiel and “random odd instruments” plus Chris Parreira (guitar, piano, vocals). Sounds interesting. Check them out Saturday at Redwood Curtain Brewing or Monday at The Speakeasy.

The soul organ combo Alan Evans Trio features drummer Alan Evans from Soulive, Beau Sasser from Melvin Sparks’ band on organ, and Danny Mayer from On The Spot Trio on guitar — retro-groove jazz at its finest. Opening the show when the trio hits town Wednesday: PC4, a quartet with Pete Ciotti joined by friends from MooGot-2 and the Hip Hop Lounge.

Across town at the Arcata Theatre Lounge that same Wednesday, a Bonus/ NHS show with Brooklyn-born rapper Talib Kweli backed by a live band. Talib has a long, storied history in hip hop: He was half of Black Star with Mos Def and worked with Kanye on his early projects.

Talib is about to drop his own new collection, Prisoner of Conscious, so you’ll hear fresh tracks along with old faves. Gobi is a special guest; DJ Northstar and JustOne spin. Hip indeed. • northcoastjournal.com • North Coast Journal • Thursday, March 28, 2013

Stop Searching, See Sugar Man Cast elevates Croods but can’t entirely rescue Admission

By John J. Bennett filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

SEARCHING FOR SUGAR MAN. I’d like to say I’ve known about the life and music of Sixto Rodriguez for years, but even my desire for indie-cred has its limits. Like most people (outside of South Africa anyway), I wouldn’t even know the guy’s name if not for Malik Bendjelloul’s justifiably celebrated, Oscar-anointed documentary.

Rodriguez recorded two albums of uniquely poetic rock and roll in the early 1970s. A couple of Detroit record producers found him gigging in the back of a club called the Sewer and decided to make him a star. At least that was the idea: Two wordy, lushly orchestrated records later, he was back to his day-job doing manual labor in the Motor City. Done and done, or so it would seem. But over the next decade (how it happened is still unclear) those two albums became huge hits in South Africa. More to the point, Rodriguez became a culture touchstone for the anti-apartheid movement. He also achieved mythical status when increasingly grisly rumors of his public suicide began to circulate.

To summarize Searching for Sugar

Man more extensively would necessarily ruin some of its surprises, and I won’t do that here. Bendjelloul assembles a compelling, finely crafted detective story, told primarily from the perspectives of a journalist and a record-store owner whose paths fortuitously crossed within Rodriguez super-fandom. He eschews most of the techniques that can make documentaries feel staid and conventional. The first half of the movie in particular avoids standard talking-head medium shots, voice-over, etc, instead making brilliant use of animation, music and gorgeous cinematography. The momentum ebbs a little in the middle, when the movie shifts into a mode of reverential biography, but the first act is so strong, so unexpected, that I can easily forgive this minor lapse.

The most surprising thing about all this may be the fact that this story hasn’t been told before. There’s significant crosscultural resonance in the scenes about the end of apartheid played against the notion that a minority artist couldn’t move units in America in the 1970s. And the tragic under-representation of the artist is an eerie foreshadow of all the file-sharing turmoil of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

My only complaint is that when Bendjelloul sets out to do a little detective work of his own and figure out who actually profited from Rodriguez’s South African success, he loses the trail almost immediately. Maybe it speaks to the vagaries of the business more than any shortcomings of the filmmaking, but it leaves lingering concerns nonetheless.

That narrative dead end notwithstanding, Searching for Sugar Man remains a thought-provoking, ultimately heartwarming rock-bio as historical document; well worth the price of admission. PG13.

ADMISSION. I’ve long harbored a school girl crush on Paul Rudd. Fortu-

30 North Coast Journal • Thursday, march 28, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

nately, my wife likes him too. As far as I’m concerned, he can save just about any movie with his likeability and perfect timing. I’m on board with Tina Fey, too, but I think she’s at her best working from her own material. Other writers rarely give adequate voice to her withering, self-deprecating sarcasm and impeccable joke-craft. And those are the high and low points of this offering: great leads, (among the most charming in the business), and a script that under-serves their talents.

Fey plays Portia Nathan, a Princeton University admissions officer stuck in a rut. Rudd’s John Pressman is a rootless free-spirit with an adopted son, currently running a developmental high school in New Hampshire. Their paths cross when one of his students (whom he suspects may be the baby Nathan gave up for adoption, lo these many years ago) expresses an interest in attending Princeton.

Very earnest, mature themes develop from there.

The premise is a solid one, but director Paul Weitz (American Pie, Little Fockers) takes a broad approach, counting on the chemistry of his cast and the too-obvious tropes of the script (Lily Tomlin as Portia’s hyper-feminist author mom, Rudd’s knee-jerk reaction against his blue-blood family) to carry the day. The strategy almost works, but not quite. Fey and Rudd are as winning as ever, likewise the young supporting cast. On the whole, Admission offers some pleasant, if predictable, distractions. PG13. 117m.

THE CROODS. Animated movies have so consistently let me down in the last few years that I approach them only with the lowest of expectations. And the premise of this one — a family of cave-dwellers must confront their fear of change to avoid extinction — didn’t give me much to look forward to. That’ll show me: Thanks to a likeable ensemble (Nicholas Cage, Emma Stone, Ryan Reynolds, Cloris Leachman, Clark Duke), a unique visual sensibility and general good-heartedness,The Croods won me over handily. Sure, the script spends most of its time in pretty familiar territory, but the way directors Kirk De Micco and Chris Sanders handle it offers some welcome surprises. PG. 96m.

DEPARTMENT OF ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL 1105 6TH STREET, SUITE C EUREKA, CA 95501 707-445-7229 NOTICE OF APPLICATION TO SELL ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGES

NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST, DATED May 22, 2006, UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. 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 213 488-0218. 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. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

orothy “one martini and I’m under the table, two and I’m under the host” Parker hated her “wisecracker” reputation. But what else do you call someone whose response to the demands of one of her many beaus was, “I’m too fucking busy, and vice versa”? (On being told that former president Calvin Coolidge had died, Parker asked, “How could they tell?”)

Ah, the pungent put-down, the ready riposte, the crafty comeback! To honor the upcoming silliness of April Fool’s Day, here’s more, from my now 40-year-old collection of quotations.

Winston Churchill had a reputation for verbally parrying with women.

When the exasperated British-American politician Nancy Astor railed, “If you were my husband, I’d put poison in your coffee,” Churchill responded, “If I were your husband, I’d drink it!” Another time, Member of Parliament Bessie Braddock said to him (probably correctly), “Winston, you’re drunk!” He replied, “Bessie, you’re ugly, and tomorrow morning I shall be sober.”

He didn’t stop with female politicians.

Playwright George Bernard Shaw once sent Churchill two tickets for the first night of his new play, “One for yourself and one for a friend — if you have one.”

Churchill replied, “I can’t make it, but I would like tickets for the second night — if there is one.”

Author and Trotskyite Mary McCarthy detested her “evil twin” literary rival Lillian Hellman, whose infatuation with “Uncle Joe” Stalin she despised. “Every word she writes is a lie, including ‘and’ and ‘the’,” she famously told Dick Cavett on his TV show.

That brought on a $2 million libel suit, which only ended with Hellman’s death.

Another female rivalry didn’t stop there.

“Just because she’s dead doesn’t mean she’s gonna change,” said Bette Davis of Joan Crawford.

Abe Lincoln wasn’t above a quick-witted riposte. When political rival Stephen Douglas called him “two-faced” in one of their seven debates in 1858, Lincoln replied, “I leave it to my audience. If I had another face, do you think I would wear this one?”

Hecklers can either be the bane of a stand-up comic’s life or opportunities sent from above. Comedian Jeremy Hardy, getting a hard time from some guy in his audience, finally came back with, “Nigel, it’s over. Can’t you understand that?” And Englishman Jim Smallman’s response to being told by a heckler, “You’re ugly!” was, “And yet your missus still prefers me to you.”

Oscar Wilde’s social life sounds like it was one continuous series of comebacks, but James McNeill Whistler got the better of him once. “I wish I’d said that,” said Wilde after a witty remark by Whistler.

The painter came back with, “You will, Oscar, you will.”

Even soccer players aren’t above the occasional put-down, such as George Best’s take on David Beckham: “He can’t kick with his left foot, he can’t head, he can’t tackle, and he doesn’t score many goals. Apart from that, he’s all right.”

Finally, Truman (In Cold Blood) Capote just didn’t see Jack Kerouac as being in his league as an author, declaring of On the Road, “That’s not writing, that’s typing.” l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo. com) always has a witty response … one minute too late. His Field Notes compendia are at Eureka Books and Old Town Books.

THE PETITION requests the decedent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court.

Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

A HEARING on the petition will be held on April 18, 2013, at 2:00 p.m. at the Superior Court of California, County of Humboldt, 825 Fifth Street, Eureka, in Dept. 8.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the deceased, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of the notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code.

Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

obituaries Adrienne Berenson Goldberg 1925-2013 Adrienne Berenson Goldberg, born in Chicago in 1925, the daughter of Clara Rofsky and Leonard Berenson. Her mother’s family emigrated from Russia, her father’s from Lithuania. The famous art critic, Bernard Berenson, was her grandfather’s first cousin. She graduated from Tuley High School in Chicago in 1942, Northwestern University in 1946 and received her Master’s degree from Columbia University in 1948. She was a professor of English and African-American Literature at Queensboro Community College (QCC) of City University of New York. After studying African-American literature at Columbia’s Teachers College with Dr. Bone, she developed the African American studies curriculum of QCC, taught the first African-American literature course in their English Department, and was on QCC’s search committee for African-American faculty. She challenged gender discrimination in promotion against the City of New York, with the help of American Jewish Congress, and prevailed. She was a representative for women in another successful gender discrimination challenge.

She also taught at Brooklyn Polytech and Queens College in New York City, and Temple University and Drexel College in Philadelphia. She lived in New York, Philadelphia, Annapolis, and Trinidad, California and travelled throughout the world, including Europe, Israel, Turkey, and Senegal, West Africa. She devoted her life to teaching, charity, justice, literature, and the arts. She was the recipient of many awards for teaching and community service. She died suddenly on March 15, 2013.

Contributions can be made in her memory to Mt. Olive Community Life Center, 2 Hicks Ave., Annapolis, MD 21401.

Adrienne’s successes, both academically and professionally, reflect her curiosity and keen intellect. Yet her greatest achievement was as a person who truly cared about others. She wanted to know people deeply and the stories of their lives.

Her heart was large enough to hold both the love and the pain of others. Her ability to see each person’s unique value and her generous spirit helped each of us strive to be our better selves.

She was a remarkable person whom we loved dearly. We keep her close in our hearts and appreciate each moment of life as the rich gift that she knew it to be.

In coming months, one memorial service will be held in Trinidad, California and one in Annapolis. Family members are her husband of 65 years, Clarence Goldberg, at goldieg@ aol.com, her son, Larry Goldberg, in Trinidad, at larry@ northcoast.com, her daughter, Susan Goldberg, in Pittsburgh, at goldbergs@duq.edu, daughter-in-law, Kathleen DiCiolla, and grandson, Jacob Alberto DiCiolla Goldberg.
