s you’ll read in this week’s cover story, Last Chance Grade — the failing 3-mile stretch of U.S. Highway 101 just south of Crescent City — sits on what’s called a broken formation. You have fragmented shale, siltstone and thick bedded sandstone that are being thrust upward as two tectonic plates collide hundreds of miles below.

Meanwhile, gravity is pulling the top layers of rock and soil toward the ocean in three large landslides, all of which are moving independently of one another at different speeds and in different directions.

In some ways, the jumbled mess of rock and dirt resembles North Coast politics, which often see divergent groups, motivated by different forces, move in different directions, often to the detriment of all around them. We, too, can be considered a broken formation and that’s a problem. And it might prove a fatal one in the fight ahead to find a permanent solution to that failing strip of road — which stands as a vital artery for both Humboldt and Del Norte counties.

As Kimberly Wear explains in the cover story, most agree that rerouting U.S. Highway 101 inland, bypassing Last Chance Grade, is the most sensible solution.

However, it’s one that will take upwards of $1 billion in federal funds — that’s 10 times

4 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

the current congressional budget allocation for emergency road repairs throughout the nation.

And each of the six alternate routes currently under consideration carry aspects that are sure to hit a nerve with local interest groups. The shortest route, estimated to also be the cheapest to build, would plow through virgin redwood forests. Routes that attempt to avoid impacts to pristine forests would be more expensive and take longer to build.

In short, under typical circumstances, all options seem to have landmines that would either send the conservative chamber-of-commerce types or the environmental protectors among us running from the bargaining table.

But the stakes are too high for that. As Caltrans estimates, a catastrophic closure of Last Chance Grade will cost Del Norte County alone more than $300 million a year in economic activity, to say nothing of the economic impacts to Humboldt County, which is home to businesses and a tourism industry dependent on the flow of traffic north. And those dollars and cents calculations ignore that a prolonged closure would have very real human impacts, as it would sever the town of Klamath from its county seat, along with its courthouse, social services and schools.

Especially in today’s political climate, it may seem a stretch to imagine that Congress is going to allocate hundreds of millions of dollars to repair a road in the rural Northwest. That may be true, but it’s certainly even more improbable to think it would do so for a project shrouded in controversy under threat of protest and litigation.

The bottom line is if we on the North Coast are going to make a compelling case for federal funds, we need to present a united front. We’re all going to need to give a little, to compromise and meet each other halfway. On one side, that likely means accepting more environmental damage than we’re comfortable with. On the other, it means agreeing to a heftier price tag and a slower construction schedule than we’d like.

To get around this broken formation that’s undercutting Humboldt County’s main artery to the North, we’re going to have to get around the broken formation of our politics. And the scary part is, we may not get another chance. ● Thadeus Greenson is the news editor of the Journal. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@ northcoastjournal.com.

Reason to Reconsider Editor: The saga of the flawed hiring of the flawed county chief public defender continues. In the latest episode, all nine of the county public defenders signed a letter stating that David Marcus is unqualified to be their chief public defender (NCJ Daily, March 30). Mr. Marcus was hired by the Board of Supervisors, and has served as Humboldt’s chief public defender since February. If one or two public defenders had objected to Mr. Marcus, it could be construed as an arbitrary complaint by a disgruntled employee. For all nine to express their deep concerns and dissatisfaction took a great deal of courage, and leaves little room for doubt that there are serious problems with their boss.

The supervisors were elected to serve all the citizens of Humboldt County, including those who cannot afford to hire a lawyer. The public defender’s clients are particularly vulnerable right now because of Mr. Marcus, and may be getting poor legal representation. It is time for the Board of Supervisors once again to reconsider the hiring of David Marcus as Humboldt County’s chief public defender.

Marilyn Andrews, Arcata

Editor: Kudos to all nine of the Humboldt County deputy public defenders for rightfully standing up and speaking out against their completely unqualified boss, David Marcus.

It is very concerning that the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors did not heed any of these concerns prior to hiring this unqualified individual. As a tax paying resident of Humboldt County, I ask: Where do the special interests lie and why did the Board of Supervisors once again ignore the community’s concerns? It is also apparent that Marcus’ lack of experience will actually benefit certain groups of people, while inhibiting the ones he’s meant to serve. His hiring by the Board of Supervisors serves a function and this function is not to defend the public. He is not qualified for his role.

This seems “par for the course” for this group of individuals whom we look to lead our county with integrity and transparency.

Both are lacking. The supervisors seem to think they are above the rules and regulations set in place to protect our most vulnerable citizens, the poor. Those who need public defenders.

“Not only does it jeopardize the rights of our clients to the effective assistance of counsel, but puts staff at risk of unhealthy and unethical work conditions,” the deputy public defenders wrote.

Clearly this Marcus individual has ties to the Board of Supervisors that has blinded them to his absolute lack of experience.

And now all nine of our deputy public defenders find themselves in the position of asking the Board of Supervisors to do the right thing and reconsider their hire.

A complete waste of time and tax dollars.

Our elected officials obviously need to take their responsibilities more seriously. They were What matters elected to serve all Is not matter. residents of Humboldt County, not Nothing is just those they have Created connections to and business deals with.

or as long as the public eye has been on the woes of Humboldt County’s skilled nursing facilities, all but one of which are owned by the same company — Brius Healthcare Services — there has been a question of where to point the finger of blame. In the last month alone, Brius facilities have been slapped with $160,000 in fines from the state and two wrongful death complaints from a local attorney. Should culpability go to the local company that provides administrative services to the facilities, Rockport Healthcare Services? Who is responsible for the November death of Randy Kruger, who was allegedly neglected at Eureka Rehabilitation Wellness Center to the point where he developed a pressure ulcer the size of a fist on this tailbone? Is it Eureka Rehabilitation and Wellness Center, LLC? Or Eureka Rehabilitation and Wellness Center, LP? Or is it the man at the helm of all these companies — Shlomo Rechnitz — a skilled nursing mogul who owns 81 such facilities across the state, facilities that have been dogged by reports of poor care and understaffing?

Rechnitz is at the center of the civil lawsuit recently filed by W. Timothy Needham of Eureka’s Janssen and Malloy law firm which alleges that understaffing in two local facilities, Eureka and Seaview Rehabilitation and Wellness Center, led to the deaths of Kruger and another man, Ralph Sorensen. Kruger, 64, and Sorensen, 76, both died after untreated pressure ulcers became infected, according to Needham’s complaint, which names the individual facilities, their affiliated LLCs, Rockport, Brius and Rechnitz himself as defendants accused of wrongful death, elder abuse and violation of patient rights. Representatives from the com-

pany did not return an email from the Journal regarding this issue by deadline, but in August of 2016 representatives from Rockport and Brius both insisted that Humboldt facilities were adequately staffed with traveling nurses at great impact to the company’s bottom line, and threatened to close several facilities if the region’s MediCal administrator — Partnership Healthplan of California — did not raise reimbursement rates.

Needham calls the corporate structure of the skilled nursing facilities — which care for some of the most fragile patients in the healthcare continuum, those needing constant medical attention and suffering from dementia — one of the most complex he’s seen. In order to make his case Needham, will have to draw a straight line from the deaths of the two men to the deep pockets of Rechnitz, who may be profiting off taxpayer dollars from Medicare and Medicaid as patients like Sorenson and Kruger allegedly suffer due to inadequate care.

“We will be filing an amended complaint detailing the organizational structure of the skilled healthcare company and its affiliated entities,” said Needham, who has 20 days from April 5 to file the

amended complaint.

Needham’s pursuit may well take him all the way back to 2010, when Janssen and Malloy triumphed in a suit against Skilled Healthcare Group, the previous owner of the facilities, alleging understaffing. The original jury verdict awarded $677 million in damages, but settlement talks whittled that figure down to $50 million, and an injunction in which the company would have to adhere to independent monitoring of staffing levels. Victory for the attorneys was short-lived at the time, as Rechnitz and his company Brius swooped in at the eleventh hour to buy the businesses.

As a separate entity, Brius was not required to comply with the terms of county’s injunction. The independent monitoring never happened. And Rechnitz’s purchase from Skilled Healthcare dredges up another name: The Sytamar Foundation.

Established in early December of 2010, the charitable foundation’s name is a mash up of Rechnitz’s first initials, Shlomo Yehuda and his wife Tamar’s first name.

The 501(c)(03)’s listed purpose, according to financial documents, is to “provide assistance to other exempt institutions,” Continued on page 10 »

but the timing of its formation and its lone transaction for that year suggests a different motive: to shuffle Rechnitz’s investment in the Skilled Healthcare Group one level away from culpability. On Dec. 29, 2010, Rechnitz donated of 350,000 shares of common stock in the Skilled Healthcare Group, worth around $3 million, to his own foundation. Three months later Skilled announced it was turning over operations of its five Humboldt facilities to Brius, retaining the physical buildings

but selling the operations to Rechnitz’s company. Rechnitz issued a press release stating, “our company is looking forward to working together with the medical community in Humboldt County to deliver the excellent patient care Brius is known for. We’re honored to have the opportunity to make a difference.”

The Journal could not determine whether Rechnitz was an investor in the embattled group prior to the September 2010 settlement, or if his investment in

10 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

Skilled tipped his hand in the later purchase, but if the Sytamar Foundation was an attempt to shuffle the deck, it was just the beginning.

The National Union of Healthcare Workers recently provided the Journal with a report generated from financial filings with the California Office of Statewide Health Planning and Development.

Those reports include the amounts every Brius facility pays in rent, average employee turnover and nursing wages.

As verified by OSHPD documents, between 2010 and 2011, rents skyrocketed for all five Humboldt properties, jumping anywhere from 84 to 360 percent. In 2010, Skilled Healthcare Group, which owned the leases, paid itself $333,530 a year in rent for Eureka Rehabilitation and Wellness Center. Post-Brius buyout, the rent went up to $827,751. Altogether, between 2010 and 2015, the last year for which financial filings are available, rental costs for the facilities jumped by about $2.5 million.

Why? NUHW’s report points to yet another name: Eretz Properties. Eretz is the Hebrew word for land, and every Humboldt County facility is connected to an Eretz Properties, LP, each of which was established by Rechnitz in 2011. As the middleman, Eretz subleases the properties back to Brius at an inflated rate. The Journal has requested copies of the lease and sublease requirements for these facilities from the California Department of Public Health.

Fred Seavey, research director at the NUHW, calls this system a “scheme” that Rechnitz has replicated for holdings throughout California.

“Across the state it’s millions of dollars … he’s siphoning scarce healthcare dollars away from frail and elderly people ,” said Seavey. “When you look at the terms of the lease and the sublease, we don’t see anything that the middleman is doing that adds value to the relationship. The purpose is to siphon money and create an additional layer of legal protection. If you were to sue, you would have to fight your way through layers of LLCs.” As Needham prepares to do just that, the lone regulatory entity tasked with making sure Humboldt County’s most vulnerable residents are safe and cared for may also see its day in court. After conducting an inspection of Eureka Rehabilitation and Wellness Center in December of 2016, the CDPH levied eight separate fines totaling $160,000 for deficiencies that included insufficient staffing levels.

Asked to comment in March, Amad Nazifi, vice president of operations for Rockport’s Redwood Region office, emailed to say the company had taken corrective action to ensure appropriate care for residents and it was working on recruiting and retaining permanent staff.

“We strongly disagree with the citations issued against Eureka Rehabilitation and Wellness Center,” the statement continued. “The citations are being appealed and we are confident that we will prevail.” l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

Week in Weed

Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Marijuana and Firearms?

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

N

orth Coast Congressman Jared Huffman is co-sponsoring legislation introduced to the House last week that would remove marijuana from the federal Controlled Substances Act and regulate it like alcohol.

The bill, not so creatively dubbed the Regulate Marijuana Like Alcohol Act, would place the plant under the purview of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, and allow adults ages 21 and over to possess, purchase and consume cannabis legally in all 50 states. Perhaps equally as important, the bill would allow scientists to study the plant without restrictions.

The bill is authored by Rep. Jared Polis, a Colorado Democrat who helped push recreational legalization in his home state.

“Colorado has proven that allowing responsible adults to legally purchase marijuana gives money to classrooms, not cartels; creates jobs, not addicts; and boosts our economy, not our prison population,” Polis said in a statement.

Of course, optimism about the bill’s future should be tempered, as Polis introduced a similar legislation in 2015 that was unceremoniously buried in the powerful House Ways and Means’ subcommittee on trade. The picture probably hasn’t improved since then, what with Republicans now controlling both houses and the president having appointed an attorney general who believes marijuana is a “life-wrecking dependency” only “slightly less awful than heroin.”

But if you’re really the glass-is-half-full type looking for something to hold onto, there’s this: 29 states have now legalized some form of marijuana use and polls show about 60 percent of Americans now support federal legalization.

l

And it seems Jerry Jones, the swashbuckling gazillionaire owner of the Dallas Cowboys may be counted among them.

Jones recently addressed a group of National Football Association team owners and urged the league to drop its prohibition on marijuana use, which has

long been lambasted as archaic by former players, who have said publicly that marijuana would have been a favorable substitute to the heavy-duty pain medications they were given by teams. A recent story in the Washington Post detailed that NFL players average “six to seven pain pills or injections a week” over the course of a typical season.

Under the league’s current collective bargaining agreement, players are randomly drug tested and a positive result for marijuana will lead to mandated substance abuse programs, with subsequent violations potentially leading to 10-game suspensions and then banishment from the league. An act of domestic violence, meanwhile, nets a six-game suspension.

So, yeah, I think Jerry Jones has a point, though it makes me feel awful gross to write those words.

l

Meanwhile, the federal prohibition continues to have wide reaching affects.

Eureka Police Chief Andrew Mills said he recently ran into some of them while researching the city’s plans to permit cannabis dispensaries, testing and manufacturing facilities.

As a part of that, EPD is allowed to do criminal background checks on applicants, presumably to make sure they don’t have robbery or theft offenses, or violent crimes, on their records. While Mills said the California Department of Justice is happy to oblige and run fingerprints as a part of Eureka’s licensing plan, the feds have indicated that, as a matter of policy, they will not cooperate with any background checks that come in an effort to license or regulate cannabis businesses.

This leaves applicants on very uneven footing: The guy who went on a rip-andrun bender in Sacramento’s probably not getting permitted but the gal with a similar armed robbery string in, say, Ohio will probably be cleared for business.

“We’re just operating blind on the federal side, and I don’t see that changing anytime soon,” Mills said.

Proposal Would Bring Drug Treatment to the MAC

A

counties in the rate of drug induced deaths, and 55th in rates of chronic liver disease, according to a recent report from the California Department of Public Health. The county currently doesn’t have a medical detox facility and in-patient treatment programs beds can be impacted, posing barriers to addicts and alcoholics getting the treatment they need.

Eureka Housing Projects Manager Melinda Peterson said the proposed program may also feature a “sobering station,” where police could place drunk in public arrests — with their consent — instead of jail. The hope, Peterson said, would be that arrestees would choose to enter treatment when sobering up.

Peterson cautioned that the plan is still taking shape, adding that the April 4 report to the council was simply intended to make sure it is aware of the discussions taking place. But changes at the MAC come with a tangled bureaucratic web, as the building is owned by Eureka but was built with state funding that carries ongoing restrictions, meaning the state Housing and Community Development HOME Department would have to approve any changes to the use of the building. (The staff report states it has provided a “cursory” approval of the added drug and alcohol program.)

Then, the city contracts with RCAA to run programming at the center. That contract can be canceled or modified, but only with 180 days’ notice. Finally, the current incarnation of the program depends on mental health and other funding streams that pass through DHHS. — Thadeus Greenson

t long last, a large-scale alcohol and drug treatment facility complete with medical detox services may be coming to Humboldt County.

As the Journal went to press April 4, the Eureka City Council was slated to receive a report on a proposal to add drug and alcohol treatment services to its Multiple Assistance Center, which currently serves as a homeless intake center for single adults through a program run by the Redwood Community Action Agency with funding from the county Department of Health and Human Services.

The proposal is in its infancy, but city staff is looking at plans to transition part of the center into a Substance Use Disorder Treatment Program. “The facility is proposed to contain approximately 10 individuals in detox and up to 40 individuals in the treatment program who could transition into the existing transitional housing component for a maximum of two years,” the staff report states.

If it comes to fruition, the plan would constitute the second major reshaping of the MAC in recent years.

Under the plan currently being explored, RCAA, the city and the county would bring in an additional partner, Alcohol Drug Care Services, to run a substance abuse treatment component that would potentially double the population there. The plan, according to the staff report, is the “next graduated step” in assisting homeless people with substance use disorders. It would also meet a serious demand in a county that has long been beset by addiction issues.

In 2015, the last year for which statistics are available, Humboldt ranked 56th out of California’s 58

Slip, Sliding Away There are no easy answers to Last Chance Grade

other Nature is just not on Last Chance Grade’s side.

Caught between an eroding coastline and three massive landslides on unrelenting marches toward the ocean, the long-failing highway section with an ominous name doesn’t seem to stand a chance.

Battered by deluges of rain in recent months, the already geologically-challenged portion of U.S. Highway 101 just south of Crescent City lost another 10 feet in a March slipout. The mountain, quite simply, is moving and the recent spate of wet weather is only speeding it up.

Just drive onto Last Chance Grade and the signs are immediately evident: The cracked, uneven pavement runs through roadway basins — one section dropped 5 feet in the last year — and a main retaining wall with sagging segments reveals gaps at the base.

Caltrans, meanwhile, continues to patch, repair and reinforce the desolate stretch of road that connects California’s northernmost reaches to the rest of the state, constantly working to keep pace with a 3-mile-long target that has shifted 50 feet west since 1937.

“It’s neverending,” says Sebastian Cohen, a major damage engineer for Caltrans who has managed the Last Chance Grade project for the last three years.

Just along the 22 miles highway that separate Klamath and Crescent City, some 200 active and historic landslides have been mapped in recent years.

“As the mountain moves up and down, our road moves up and down, and the ocean is just eating it away,” Cohen says.

That movement has accelerated in recent years, renewing calls to once again find a way around the unstable terrain that, so far, has only had one full closure — for a four-hour stretch — in

16 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

recent memory.

A major failure could cut businesses in Humboldt and Del Norte off from their suppliers and clients, children from their schools and sever a vital link between Del Norte County’s southern residents and their seat of government.

“It’s like a flea on a donkey,” Cohen says of the roadway. “You can strap that flea down to the donkey but it’s just going along for the ride. The donkey is the one making the decisions.”

The same geological

forces that created some of California’s most spectacularly rugged coastlines are also wreaking havoc on Last Chance Grade.

Called the Franciscan Complex, the land formation is basically a mishmash of rock haphazardly thrown together by the immense tectonic energy exerted when one plate slips under another.

Geologist Ken Aalto, a professor emeritus at Humboldt State University who has mapped the western coastline from Cape Blanco in Oregon to Punta Gorda to the south, described the process like “a great mixer.”

“It’s all mixed up and sheared up,” he says.

Last Chance Grade sits in what is known as a “broken formation” comprised mainly of fragmented shale, siltstone and thick bedded sandstone that form the soaring cliffs being undermined by the ocean.

When toes of the slopes reach a vertical mass, gravity takes over, causing slipouts like the one last month.

Meanwhile, the deep-seated Wilson Creek, North Last Chance Grade and South Last Chance Grade landslides are each slowly making a descent toward the ocean at different rates — almost as if the earthen masses aren’t getting along. The Last Chance slides alone span a combined

This March landslide shut down Last Chance Grade for four hours, the first full closure along the stretch in recent memory, but was quickly cleaned up.

2,200 feet and all three traverse the mountainside above and below the road.

Throw in some heavy rains and things can really get moving.

“On the whole, from an engineering perspective, that section of coastline is pretty stable but nevertheless it does fail ... and you can’t stop those, so you’re left with the question: What do you want to do?” Aalto says.

“All I can say is there is a severe problem and it’s not going to get better on its own,” he adds.

While Aalto is quick to point out that he’s not a registered geologist, he says his lifetime experience studying the Franciscan Complex — the formation of which only became understood in the late 1950s and ’60s with the emergence of plate tectonics theory — leaves him concerned about the roadway’s future.

“No one can predict when a major failure will occur on that slope but we know it will,” Aalto says.

But nothing about

the Last Chance Grade project is simple.

Landslides have been the road’s constant companion since the original wagon trail was built in 1894 — one was called Last Chance Slide, which stuck. Construction on the current alignment began in 1933 but faced constant delays due to

area’s trademark instability. Even then there were proposals to move the highway inland but they were ultimately derailed by cost.

Now the situation boils down to two main choices: Continue with the constant and costly maintenance — a tally of more than $54 million since 1981 — needed to keep the road open with fingers crossed there won’t be a massive landslide or build one of six proposed routes to sidestep the problem area.

For folks like Blake Alexandre, there’s a lot on the line. His family’s business, Alexandre EcoDairy Family Farms, relies on U.S. Highway 101 to bring in regular hauls of hay and grain and to ship eggs and milk out to markets south of the ranch, which sits nestled along the Smith River in Del Norte County.

With his organic farm necessitating about 50 trips along the stretch each week, any closure would mean a grueling 320-mile, seven-hour reroute via U.S. Highway 199 to Interstate 5 to State Route 299 — costing time and money.

There’s no doubt the stakes of a closure are high: Caltrans found Del Norte County alone would lose $300 million to $400 million per year in economic output with some 3,000 to 4,000 jobs on the line.

Alternatives to Last Chance Grade

“We Fit Humboldt”

Alternative A1 (Rudisill Road to LCG Tunnel) This alternative, which includes a 2,000-foot tunnel under Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Park, is 3.2 miles long at a cost of $680 million and would impact old growth redwoods. Project timeline: three years.

Alternative A2 (Rudisill Road to Damnation Trailhead) Also 3.2 miles, this route goes through old growth forest and includes a 115-foot high, 1,100-foot long bridge through the tree canopies to reduce its impacts. The cost is $275 million. Project timeline: two years.

Alternative C3 (Rudisill Road to South of Mill Creek Access) This project has a footprint of 245 acres, three times longer than the A options. The 8-mile route, which avoids old growth trees, includes a 1,680-foot tunnel. The cost is $980 million. Project timeline: three years.

Alternative C4 (Rudisill Road to North of Mill Creek Access) The second longest option at 8.6 miles, this route also avoids old growth, but has a 265-acre footprint, 10 water crossings and would impact mature redwood forest. Cost is $1 billion. Project timeline: four years.

Alternative C5 (Rudisill Road to Hamilton Road) At nearly 12 miles, this is the longest and most expensive of the proposed routes. It avoids old growth, but impacts 93 acres of mature redwoods within its 330-acre footprint. Con-

struction would include 11 bridges and a 1,680-foot tunnel. Cost is $1.25 billion.

Project timeline: four years.

Alternative F (Full Tunnel) One of the most technically challenging, this alternative is a 1-mile tunnel to bypass the Last Chance Grade slide. While it has the smallest footprint at 4.5 acres, it also has the longest timeline at 6.5 years. The cost is $1.05 billion.

Maintain Current Route Under this alternative, Last Chance Grade will require regular maintenance and emergency restoration projects as needed to address changing conditions, with a projected cost of approximately $26 million by 2034. A large, deep slide could result in a major failure and complete closure of the roadway indefinitely. Some potential options closest to the existing alignment include a retreat upslope that could require cutting more than 100 old growth trees.

Chance Grade on a regular basis can literally watch new twists and turns develop over short periods of time — including a noticeable drop in the roadway that took place in February.

“There’s multiple challenges along the road and some are maybe more urgent than others,” he says.

During recent trips to Washington, D.C., Alexandre met with his representative, Jared Huffman, as well as congressmen Peter DeFazio of Oregon and Doug LaMalfa, who represents Northeastern California, to discuss the highway’s predicament.

He says the officials understand a workaround is needed, if not necessarily the urgency of getting the project moving.

“When you can tell it changes from

18 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

week to week, that’s a different concept than, ‘It’s been failing for years,’” Alexandre says.

For his part, Huffman says that he along with other state and federal officials are committed to preventing the “mother of all road closures” at Last Chance Grade and he is cautiously optimistic the project is gaining momentum with its many pieces beginning to fall into place.

“I think people need to understand we’ve been working at this very intensely for the last couple of years, and I wish that I could just snap my fingers and have all the approvals and funding necessary to relocate Last Chance Grade, but it’s complicated and it does take some time,” he says.

While the consensus is the road needs

to be relocated, an overwhelming array of hurdles stand in the way. Even if funding the multi-million to billion-dollar project wasn’t enough of a challenge, each of the proposed alternatives presents major obstacles.

There are old growth redwoods, park land and private property, endangered species, areas of cultural significance to local tribes, challenging geology, untouched wilderness and even a United Nations’ World Heritage site to contend with.

Just about everything that could raise a red flag on a major construction project is on the table.

Staying put has its own complications, including the eventual need to cut into the cliffs up the ridgeline to widen the roadway, bringing down old growth red-

Before an alternative route can even be selected from the list of contenders with varying levels of cost and complexity, environmental and geotechnical studies are needed on each one — with a five-year timeline for completion and an estimated price tag of $50 million.

“Everything about the project is unique and challenging,” Cohen says. “That’s what it should be called, Unique and Challenging Grade instead of Last Chance Grade.”

Until recently, none of those studies could even get started. Guidelines for the needed federal emergency relief funds precluded Caltrans from getting a jump on the analyses because that would flag the project as addressing “preexisting conditions” rather than a disaster event, making it ineligible for the funds.

That changed a few weeks ago, when the Federal Highway Administration informed Caltrans that any advanced studies would no longer be held against the project — with the caveat that funding still is not guaranteed.

Huffman calls the news “a positive sign.”

“I’m keenly aware, after a season of landslides and road closures, just what it means to these communities and we want to do all we can to protect against what would be the mother of all road closures along the Last Chance Grade,” he says.

With $5 million allotted, the initial drilling tests can begin.

“The geotechnical studies are really going to drive home where it’s feasible to do what,” Cohen says.

The six proposed routes range

from a 1-mile-long tunnel — which Cohen described as “extremely expensive” and “extremely challenging” — to nearly 12 miles of new road, including a pass through the Del Norte Coast Redwoods State Forest.

None, Cohen says, stand out as an obvious choice with preliminary cost estimates running from $300 million to $1 billion. The shortest and cheapest route, for example, goes right through virgin redwood forest.

Longer routes designed to avoid the ancient trees have corresponding consequences: tremendous building costs and cumulative impacts to wildlife and the environment.

“Chances are it’s going to fall in the middle somewhere,” Cohen says.

At this juncture what’s most important is getting everyone on the same page, says Huffman, who formed a stakeholders group that includes environmental groups, landholders, tribal officials and concerned

“We are much more likely to move this thing forward proactively than if everyone is all over the map fighting with each other,” Huffman says.

Meanwhile, he says, the stakeholder group has forged a general agreement that a realignment is needed — even though that means making choices one would want to avoid in a perfect world.

That still leaves the issue of funding.

Gone are the days, Huffman says, when individual members of Congress could author legislation to pay for a particular project, which means the best hope for Last Chance Grade is federal emergency relief monies. The immense cost of the project rules out conventional state transportation resources.

“What has to happen is we’ve got to qualify for an existing program that funds projects like this,” Huffman says. “We’ve got to compete ... and we’ve got to convince federal highway officials that this is where they should put those dollars.”

Huffman says he and other local officials, including state Sen. Mike McGuire, who has worked extensively on the project, have their eyes out for other openings.

But, he doesn’t hold much hope for a major federal infrastructure bill coming to the rescue.

“I‘ll be looking at every opportunity along the way and if something faster and better comes along, we’ll jump on it,” Huffman says.

DeFazio, a ranking member on the House Transportation Committee who toured Last Chance Grade in the fall, has also said he supports the move. With only $100 million a year allocated for emergency relief funds, projects across the nation depend on bills coming out of the powerful committee to increase the pool.

One aspect working in favor of Last Chance Grade is that the wide assortment of governmental agencies that will eventually need to sign off on any selected route are taking the unprecedented position of participating in the planning to head off potential issues, rather than waiting for the studies to be completed.

That, Cohen says, is a “game changer” that will streamline construction “down the line.”

But the cumbersome

process is frustrating for those who depend on Last Chance Grade and believe it’s a matter of when — not if — the road will give way.

Those include Crescent City resident Kurt Stremberg, whose parents were killed when their car went off a collapsed sec-

It was still dark as the couple returned home in the early morning hours after dropping Stremberg, then a recent college graduate, at this friend’s home in nearby Klamath.

Stremberg says not more than 15 minutes could have passed between their trip south and the time of the accident.

“In the time I drove Last Chance and said goodbye to them and they turned back, the road was gone,” he says.

The Realtor says he stayed away from the issue for years before joining a push in 2011 to bring the highway back to the collective forefront.

That year was a major turning point in the current resolve to find a solution after the roadway’s sudden accelerated movements drew renewed attention from Caltrans, federal transportation officials and residents alike.

Stremberg was a high school student in 1964 when the dual disasters of a tsunami and the flood struck Crescent City in the same year. He says the region took generations to recover — a scenario he fears will repeat itself if Last Chance Grade experiences a monumental failure.

“That’s the kind of thing I hate to think about that we might be facing,” he says, adding that he hopes people in Del Norte,

Humboldt and even Curry counties recognize the stakes.

Stremberg, who sits on the stakeholders group set up by Huffman, prefers the shortest route, saying it will ultimately result in fewer impacts.

In the interim, he’d like to see some sort of warning system, like electronic signs posted at each side of the grade.

More and more, Stremberg says, he hears from people afraid to make the short drive over the failing section of highway.

“We can sit here for 20 years waiting for a bypass to be built but we ought to know what the condition of that road is in real time,” he says.

Right now, the Last Chance Grade project is stuck in a waiting game. First, the Federal Highway Administration needs to determine the road is unworkable at its current location.

Once that hurdle is overcome, the next step is procuring federal emergency relief funds to pay for the remainder of the studies and, ultimately, the project’s construction costs.

That would require a waiver to build the roadway outside of its original perimeters, which is not without local precedent — that’s how the Confusion Hill bridge was funded.

Cohen says his main job is keeping Last

Chance Grade open and safe to travel.

Caltrans crews walk the grade each day to track every crack and crevice and, every six months, Cohen goes up in a U.S. Coast Guard plane to observe conditions from the air. During inclement weather, crews stay on site 24-hours a day to observe any developments.

When human feet aren’t on the ground, gizmos and gadgets ranging from load sensors to GPS units monitor the earth’s movements in near real time.

By the time the 10-foot section slipped last month, Cohen says Caltrans had been prepared for the eventuality for more than a week.

Regardless, there’s still a long road ahead. The current timeline has an estimated completion date of 2039.

“This is a legacy project,” he says, noting such massive undertakings take decades.

The problem, some say, is the road — and the communities that depend on it — may not have that much time.

Plotting Out Your Garden: Part 2

By Heather Jo Flores

downanddirty@northcoastjournal.com

L

ast month we talked about the importance of planning out a garden design on paper to create a beautiful space that is easier to maintain, more abundant and, at the end of the day, better connected to the surrounding environment.

We left off by working through the first half of a step-by-step system I developed called GOBRADIME — which stands for Goals, Observation, Boundaries, Resources, Analysis, Design, Implementation-Maintainance/Monitoring and Evaluate/Enjoy.

Now it’s time for the DIME part.

As you start to hone your plan, here are some helpful questions to ask yourself: • • • • • •

What work can I avoid doing?

How is everything affecting everything else?

What are the yields and how can they be improved?

How can I make the least change for the greatest effect?

Where are the imbalances and how can they be corrected?

What are the best and worst places for each element/plant/structure?

AB R U Z Z I F I N E

• • • •

How can I use what is available now to turn problems into solutions?

What are the economic and ecological costs to implement and maintain the design?

If nothing was here, what would I bring in? What is here now that I need to remove?

Find connections, think about relationships, and start choosing where and when to make changes.

Don’t overlook the value of intuition, aesthetics and random assembly as design tools. Sometimes just putting a plant where you think it looks nice, or where you happened to set it down first, works better than anything else. If you get stuck, try using a process of elimination by asking: “Where shouldn’t this go?” and see where that takes you.

I’d love to get in deeper with the massive range of strategies for analyzing goals, observations, boundaries and resources, but for now I’ll just say that you simply MUST go on the internet and look up “permaculture zones and sectors” for a major geek-out and irreplaceable tool.

Design: Make a bunch of photocopies of your base map and do a handful of completely different designs to warm up your imagination. Now go through everything again and write a list of actions that will bring your visions into reality.

Prioritize these actions by sorting them according to goals, budgets, seasons, etc.

Write down how many labor hours you estimate for each step. Think in terms of phases, and make realistic plans according to your boundaries: Which goal do they help to meet and how important that goal is to you? From here you should be able to develop a timeline that makes sense, attached to visual maps of what your garden will look like in a month, three months, six months, two years, and as far out as you want.

Implementation. This is the time to stop writing and start actually moving stuff around. Get busy! Continue to jot down notes as you develop new ideas or make changes to the original design — this will save time later when you evaluate your work. But also, pace yourself so you stay sane and are able to follow through with the rest of the plan. Don’t burn yourself out. Take your time and focus on doing less right, rather than more wrong.

And be sure to take plenty of time to step back, rest and reflect on your progress.

Maintenance and Monitoring. All gardens need maintenance. When clients tell me they want a “no-maintenance” garden design, I tell them to plant gravel.

But it’s true that some gardens need less care than others, and it’s the space between that provides us with information and opportunity for improvement. That’s why maintenance and monitoring are interconnected, inseparable steps. Ideally, in a home system you will be living in and interacting with the design as it comes about. Pay attention to the ways in which your life improves or becomes more difficult through these changes. Some people develop detailed forms to document the data generated by their projects, such as growth rates, yields and potential yields, and climatic patterns. Others might keep a simplier garden journal, or maybe just take photos and mental notes. However much detail you choose, the point of monitoring your progress is to find and record successes and problems (including potential problems) with the design, so you can either repeat effective patterns or go back and redesign failed ones.

Evaluate and Enjoy! Identify strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and challenges. Attach these notes to the maps and journals. As you evaluate, you will discover new goals, new ideas, and new ways to improve the efficiency and ecological integrity of your design. When you are ready, start again at the beginning, establish new goals and spiral around to the next phase of your project. But first, hit the hammock. Rest, read, relax and enjoy your bountiful, beautiful garden. You earned it!

Finally, remember that your project, if it involves people and especially if it involves plants, is an organism rather than a mechanism. The GOBRADIME design system, like any other, is most effective when coupled with a good degree of common sense and natural intuition. Trust your instincts and use the formula to help you refine them.

But be careful not to become obsessed with controlling every aspect of the design. Mistakes are tools for learning! Take notes, laugh often and use GOBRADIME as a circular pattern, rather than a linear process. Have fun! l Heather Jo Flores is an avid seed saver and the author of Food Not Lawns, How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community. Find her at www.heatherjoflores.com.

Southern hospitality and fresh fried okra.

Hum Plate Roundup Praise cheeses, hallelujah

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

Date (and Bacon) Night We initially missed the bar tucked away in the back of the Diver Bar and Grill (2830 F St., Eureka) and despite the name and the diving helmet logo, it’s not a seafood place. But given our current socio-political climate, is this really the biggest shock you’ve had lately? Shake it off. Finally inside after seasons of passing its brown papered windows, we can crane our necks at the gleaming tin ceiling and the red glow of the wood fire oven in back. If it’s chilly out, sit as close as you can and watch the two-person team slide pies in and out with long paddles.

Good news: I called your mom and she said the carrot and parsnip fries ($7) definitely count as a vegetable. They’re sweet and nutty, and their light coating makes for a crispy exterior. More news: They will steam and go soggy in a takeout container, so spare no roasted garlic aioli and gobble them up hot.

If you feel the concrete floor and industrial metal chairs could use a little padding, just wait for your warm, pillowy pizza to arrive. A lot is happening with the Salty Sweet pizza ($14), the bubbly crust

of which reaches for the edges of your dinner plate. On the savory end is pungent gorgonzola and blue cheese sauce under mozzarella, spinach, shallots and bacon jam. The sweet is delivered by a sprinkling of chopped Medjool dates. It’s a balance of not just sweet and salty, but smoky and creamy. The crust is the real star, though, with a buttery sheen of olive oil and the wood fire char that gives it a crisp bite and a soft middle.

Mac and Cheese Appreciation We are living in a golden age — golden brown, really — of mac and cheese.

Diners, high-end restaurants, bars and food trucks alike all offer their takes on the quintessential comfort food. It’s a dish that contains multitudes: the basic elbow and cheddar, stretchy forkfuls drizzled in truffle oil and duck fat, and deep fried breaded nuggets. Roll your eyes and pretend to be jaded but if the trend ever ends and the molten crocks disappear, you will miss them (R.I.P., flambé everything).

Bask in it now, before it joins its first cous-

Mac and cheese at the Farmhouse on Main.

in the casserole, languishing at potlucks.

You could do a solid tour of macaroni and cheese around Humboldt County. If you do, send pictures. And don’t skip Farmhouse on Main (460 Main St., Ferndale). The sunny dining room with its sturdy wooden tables and vintage stove opened last fall in the former home of Curley’s Full Circle. (Take a moment to consider the chutzpah of opening a restaurant with a farmhouse vibe in a town where people actually live in farmhouses.)

Its mac and cheese is baked dish or orecchiette pasta crusted over in herby bread crumbs that break to reveal a pale, creamy cheddar sauce ($10.50). There are additions to be had, like bacon and shrimp, but consider the sliced cremini mushrooms ($2.50), which stand up well here. If the crispy, flaky fried chicken with homemade tomato jam ($15 small plate) lures you away, at least get the pasta as a side to share. It may well stay on the menu forever but, you know, just in case.

#Blessed Humboldt’s mac and cheese tour would also have to stop at Bless My Soul Café

(29 W. Fifth St., Eureka), where the dish tauntingly appears on the appetizer menu ($7.95). Bring help. The overflowing cauldron of cheddar jack macaroni and cheese pushes the ratio of pasta to cheese to the very edge of reason. It’s flecked with dill and dried basil, and spooning it onto your plate yields a cartoonish web of stretchy cheese.

Sips of clove-spiced sweet tea ($3.95) will help you recover enough to order the fried okra ($6.95). It’s a tumble of whole, fresh okra rolled in cornmeal, fried and modestly sprinkled with the house version of Old Bay seasoning. A bite — take your time, they’re hot — reveals the bright green skin and creamy interior that frozen okra cannot deliver. No need to ration the Creole aioli dip because they will bring more. Take that southern hospitality along with a refill on the sweet tea.

Less Instagram-friendly but perfectly done is the blackened catfish ($19.95). The humble filet has a surprisingly delicate exterior that’s spicy, buttery and smoky. And if you’re struggling with choosing sides, go for the full Sunday dinner experience and get the mashed potatoes with dilly cream gravy. l northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017

Get Out

Sailing on Big Lagoon

Booms, lines, knots and irons

By Peri Escarda

getout@northcoastjournal.com

G

rowing up surrounded by fishing families, I regarded the local waterways not as playgrounds but as parts of a great wilderness in which some people risked their lives. And so I scoffed at the idea of taking a recreational sailing class through Humboldt State University’s Center Activities. But my husband is far more adventurous. He believed, now that our youngest child had left for college,

Lasers about to set sail on Big Lagoon. Photo courtesy of Humboldt Bay Aquatic Center that we ought to bond with a sailing class.

I suggested a dance class instead but he could not be dissuaded.

He got me to the first sailing class by promising that it was both free and on land. The class met one evening at the Humboldt Bay Aquatic Center, where our

30 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, April 6, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

instructor Anthony Wiese employed the whiteboard to introduce basic theories.

I found myself fascinated by the sailing terms, which often had an archaic tone. Heading straight into the wind, for instance, is called being “in irons.” Sailors have an alternate name for just about ev-

erything: even rope is referred to as “line.”

As Anthony handed out pieces of line so that we could practice our knots, he told us about the Laser we’d be sailing at Big Lagoon — a 14-foot craft with a single sail, used in Olympic racing.

The evening was wearing on and I was

us to our first sailing occupation: carrying gear. There was a lot of that part. Sailors, it turns out, should not be averse to hard work. Then we learned how to rig the boats. My husband, a former Boy Scout, excelled at tying knots and had to re-tie several of my attempts but eventually my Laser was rigged alongside several others.

My heart thumped beneath the neoprene of my wetsuit; soon I would be alone in this small boat, sailing.

Anthony explained that we would stay near the boat ramp to practice “tacking,” which is another word for turning upwind.

Once launched, I did my best to maneuver my speedy little craft, which tilted toward its side whenever the 20-foot-high sail caught the breeze. I flew across the water with only the sound of the wind and my own voice singing childhood songs, in attempt to quell my panic. I did manage to tack several times, ducking under the boom and switching to the other side of the craft, adjusting the tiller and trimming the sail — until the boat capsized and

spilled me into the water. As promised, my instructors were immediately by my side and I was soon righted. The sail filled with air an like a sleek animal taking a breath, and the Laser sped away again.

I rebelled the second day, threatening to sit in the car because there was lightning and dark clouds. The plan was to sail all the way to the far northern end of the lagoon, and I didn’t feel ready — even after the clouds cleared up. But Anthony offered to sail with me in the Pico (a sailboat known to be good for beginners) and with a great deal of his help, we arrived at the other end of the lagoon. Once the entire class had made it safely ashore, we turned one of the boats sideways onto the sand and ate lunch in the windbreak formed by the hull. Coming back, we were running with the wind and I was able to point my bow southward, letting the wind carry us all the way home.

The exhilaration of that last day convinced me to take the next class, which used 16-foot-long Coronados. This was

where the true bonding happened, as my husband and I had to work together on one boat to operate two different sails.

Good communication is always important in marriage but even more so when you risk being hit upside the head by a swinging boom. Our sailboat raced alongside the whitecaps, its bow dipping and then leaping out of the swells. As we whirled and sped across the lagoon, I began to see that we had taken a kind of dance class after all. We pushed on the tiller and pulled on the line, crouched under the boom and leaned back into the wind — performing a dance that sent us sailing across the surface of water. l If you want to try it, Center Activities has its next Introduction to Sailing class April 8 and 9 ($165, $150 HSU students).

HUMBOLDT BAY TRAIL: THE ‘FINAL FOUR’ The 13-mile Humboldt Bay Trail from south Eureka through Arcata is close to a reality.

Construction is complete or underway on all but for the final four miles of trail – from Target to the Bracut Industrial Park.

Design-engineering for the final four miles, a section called the Bay Trail South, is underway. State and federal funds will

be sought for construction as well, but trail maintenance and emergency repair will fall to the county and cities.

To help secure public construction funds for the Bay Trail South, we need to demonstrate the community’s willingness to accept responsibility for long-term maintenance for this section and all county trails.

Therefore, the Humboldt Bay Trail Fund has been established with the Humboldt Area Foundation to receive donations from the community with these priorities: trail maintenance and support of volunteer initiatives; emergency repairs; trail amenities; cost-share for state and federal funds.

Your help is needed NOW!

getting a bit sleepy when I heard Anthony say, “Everyone wants to panic when they see a Laser capsize, but it really isn’t that big of a deal. So let’s go over how to right the boat and get yourself going again.”

Being one of those people who indeed would panic in such a situation, I gave Anthony my full attention. Apparently, if the boat tips over and the sail lies down in the water, one should swim around the stern, pull oneself up onto the centerboard, reach for the edge of the boat and use one’s weight to tip it right side up again — hopefully before the sail fills with too much water. Anthony and the other two instructors Eric Hall and Rob Baker had extensive sailing experience and they assured us that they would be alongside instantly to help. Still, this “capsizing” scenario stayed on my mind as we picked out our wetsuits, helmets and lifejackets.

It was still on my mind when our class met again, in the early morning mist at the Big Lagoon boat ramp.

Setlist

Parties, Pre-Parties and Celebrations

By Andy Powell

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

Thursday Get your string thing on tonight — sounds dirtier than I planned it — down at The Jam in Arcata where local string bands Thursday Night Bluegrass and The Gatehouse Well take the stage around 9 p.m. for a $5 show. Be prepared to cut a rug. At the famous Logger Bar in Blue Lake, you’ll find a music ensemble of third year Dell’Arte students who have formed The Dirty Dozen. They’re on at 9 p.m. for free and I’m told the band is comprised of folks from “Zimbabwe, Greece, Korea, India, Sweden, Denmark and all over the USA.” Please don’t ask to see their papers at the show.

Friday It’s National Beer Day — because Humboldt really needs a day to celebrate beer — and should that be enough to twist your arm into guzzling some suds, head to the Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m. to celebrate for free with the country stylings of Cadillac Ranch. At 8 p.m., Cafe Mokka welcomes back Belles of the Levee to enchant you with their tightly constructed vocal harmonies by the enchanted frog ponds. This one’s also free and all ages. Family bands are on the bill at The Siren’s Song Tavern: Roland Rock, a father-son, post-surf guitar/drum duo; Droll Weevil, a husband-wife-fronted rock band; and International Trash, a father-son rock/blues/groove band. This is probably an 8 p.m. show and it’s got a $5 cover charge. The “More Bass Edition” of Elevate is at Humboldt Brews at 9 p.m. tonight. Devstep is stopping by town and will be supported by local DJs Skinny Pepperwood and Chopsjunkie, along with Rhizae. Get into this bass heavy show for $7.

Saturday It’s A Night at the Museum at the Clarke Historical Museum at 6 p.m. and outside of checking out what’s in the museum — along with locally made food and drink — you’ll be treated to Humboldt’s own Cajun band The Bayou Swamis, who’ll be playing at the $20 event. The artists formerly known as The Honky Tonk

Detours and now known simply as The Detours return to the Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m. as well. They’ll be slipping some honk, some tonk, some rock and some roll into your ears, and all for free. The Fortuna Monday Club hosts La Nueva Ilusión, performing traditional Mexican dance music starting around 6:45 p.m. Bring $10 to get in and discover why these chaps are known as the “Kings of Cumbia.” Local singer-songwriter Joanne Rand is celebrating the release of her 16th album, entitled Roses in the Snow & Drought, tonight at The Sanctuary in Arcata. She’s backed by a local supergroup comprised of Piet Dalmolen on the six string, Rob Diggins on the fiddle four and Tim Randles on the 88. This celebration is also benefiting The Sanctuary to help them provide a space for creativity for the arts. A sliding scale of $10-$20 will get you in — consider that a deal for some of our most talented musicians. The celebration starts around 8 p.m. Two hours later, Chicago guitar player Bob Bucko Jr. stops by The Miniplex in Arcata to deliver his wide range of sound your way. He’s got local support from “FEK/Future Friends,” who I saw last Tuesday when they were billed as “Future Friends of Sound” and had a really interesting synth-driven sound with electronic drums, hand drums, guitar and saxophone. A $5 ticket price for this one.

Sunday It’s Big Day OUT! at The Mad River Brewery this afternoon starting at 1 p.m.

It’s a LGBTQ family friendly dance day with free tunes courtesy of DJ Goldylocks. A Green Week Pre-Party is happening at The Jam tonight at 9 p.m., where you’ll get the Deep Groove Society vibe with locals Jsun and Marjo Lak who are glad to welcome Blackliquid from the U.K., along with Jonra. A $10 ticket price for this pre-party.

DJs, songwriters and multi instrumentalists BoomBox hit the Arcata Theatre Lounge stage sometime after 8:30 p.m. tonight.

They’ve been pulling out the backbeat, psychedelia and funk sounds since the early aughts. Their grooves are on display for $20 tonight.

Tuesday I haven’t heard of a show happening at the Eureka Municipal Auditorium in a while, so I was glad to hear that not only is something going on tonight, but from As Lions out of the United Kingdom. They just put out their debut album Selfish Age in October so expect to hear these new songs. I gave a few of the tunes a listen to and found it to have flavors of some ’90s heavy rock, the dramatic themes of metal, and delivery of ’90s pop punk. I could see high schoolers who see the world losing its luster getting into the music here along with some of the big-truck-driving crowd from Fortuna. From a little bit of digging online, it looks like the show is scheduled for 7:30 p.m. with Shinedown headlining with Cold Kingdom also on the bill for support. It also looks like you can buy tickets online from Ticketmaster (!?!) for $37.50 but I have no idea if that’s the actual ticket price. A Bay Area band with slightly local roots, Front Country, is making a stop at Humboldt Brews at 9 p.m. With touches of roots country and bluegrass, this band is chock full of talent.

Guitar wizard Jacob Groopman joins Leif Karlstrom on violin, Jeremy Darrow on

bass, Adam Roszkiewicz on mandolin and former local Melody Walker on vocals.

Catch ’em for a $15 ticket price.

Wednesday

In case you missed Piet Dalmolen playing with Joanne Rand’s supergroup this past weekend, you have a chance to hear his solo guitar work at the Mad River Brewery at 6 p.m. tonight for free. Leave him a tip while he does his guitar looping magic for you. Merrick at The Miniplex tells me that “longtime local and late KHSU persona Jakob Sweden” is celebrating his most recent LP as Ensemble Economique tonight along with San Francisco sound artist Jim Haynes around 10 p.m. Bring $5 to this tour kickoff show for EE. l Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online.

Bands and promoters, send your gig info, preferably with a high-res photo or two, to music@northcoastjournal.com.

Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Album of the Week Show on KWPT 100.3 FM Tuesdays at 6 p.m. He’ll make it to all tomorrow’s parties.

PowerPoint to the People Submitted

After Hours Food, drinks, music and A Night at the Museum should make an exciting weekend evening, even if the exhibits don’t come to life. (They don’t, right?)

On Saturday, April 8 the Clarke Museum opens from 6 to 9 p.m. for a historically good time ($25, $20 advance, free to kids 12 and under).

While you explore the exhibits and get lost in the local history, enjoy some local Cajun music from The Bayou Swamis and dance around the circa 1911 neoclassical building. (OK, Humboldt is a long way from the bayou but let’s not be sticklers. Just dance already.) Humboldt Made is dishing out more than 17 local goodies to sample while you wind your way through the artifacts of the North Coast’s yesteryears.

The event, put together by a Humboldt State University student and sponsored by Humboldt Made, is a fundraiser for the Clarke Museum. So grab a glass of local wine and check out the current exhibits, which include Humboldt during the 1960s, the Vietnam War, Eureka’s old wool mill and lots more. But if any miniature cowboys start talking, maybe decline that next glass.

— By Sam Armanino

We’ve never been this excited for a PowerPoint presentation. On Monday, April 10 at 7 p.m., W. Kamau Bell brings his comedic lecture The Bell Curve: Ending Racism in About an Hour to the Van Duzer Theatre ($15, $5 HSU students). Sounds like a tall order, but the “socio-political comedian” and dad’s CNN show United Shades of America is about to enter its second season, his book comes out next month and he’s got three podcasts going, so maybe he can pull it off.

So why the presentation tool of sleepy seminars? Over the phone, Bell says, “Basically, what I’d seen John Stewart do, I wanted to do in a theater.” Ignoring tutorials, he tossed together YouTube videos, slides and screengrabs to flesh out his irreverent — and definitely not boring — look at society. “Forget ending racism,” he says, “I could fix a lot of people’s PowerPoints really quickly.”

Expect to laugh and to be schooled.

Bell, who crisscrosses the country for his TV show talking to everyone from San Quentin prisoners to KKK members, isn’t easily riled but he’s not shy about his opinions. He says, “Everybody who decides they want to become a comedian … there was a voice in their head that said You shouldn’t say that thing you’re thinking, and they were like, I think I’m gonna say it anyway.” Steady yourselves, Humboldt — he’s gonna say it.

The Old You Donald Cried and Ghost in the Shell

By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

This should cover those whitewashing concerns.

Ghost in the Shell

Reviews

DONALD CRIED. For a small group of us who began refining — or at least establishing, as refinement may or may not have anything to do with it — our cinematic palates in the 1990s, this movie will carry with it some familiar modes and tones. Borne of the same non-movement that would eventually give rise to the non-genre of mumblecore, Donald Cried is an unassuming two-hander, a character study with a thin narrative that emphasizes immediacy before any formal style or technique. Because its characters are firmly in place and because the lack of visual design never slips into laziness, it works surprisingly well. There are moments of intense awkwardness, a general feeling of dirty, nervous snowbound malaise and an undercurrent of personal betrayal; it goes a long way toward bringing back the feel of the indie ’90s.

Peter Latang (Jesse Wakeman), returned from New York City to the semi-squalid New England small town of his youth to settle the affairs of his recently deceased grandmother, has lost his wallet. The battery in his grandmother’s unused car is dead, of course, so Peter is stuck in the old neighborhood (which, incidentally, is covered in feet of snow). He meets briefly with the realtor he has hired to sell Nona’s house, then ventures out. Across the street he finds Donald Treebeck (Kris Avedisisan), who will we come to learn was Peter’s best friend throughout childhood. But years and decades have come between them, with Peter having tried to put as much distance between himself and his hometown as possible, and with Donald having stayed in very much the same place.

After a brief reunion, Donald agrees to shuttle Peter around town on his errands.

As they make the rounds, the dynamic between them alternates between various frequencies of social discomfort: Peter can in one moment seem grateful and genteel and then show an impatient, mean-spirited side; Donald starts out as goof who can’t read social cues but loves his old friend, eventually demonstrating a manipulative, vengeful streak. As their day wears on, the movie rides the ever-changing waves of their interaction, creating an uncomfortable but not unpleasant feeling that almost anything could happen if the two of them are together for too long.

Ultimately very little actually happens, although there are a couple of dramatic turns in the final act. Donald Cried succeeds, though, because the two leads immerse themselves so fully in the lives of the characters they play. It isn’t hard to believe that Peter and Donald were childhood best friends, even as we watch them treat each other so poorly as adults. And I suppose therein lies the truth at the heart of the movie’s storytelling: Childhood best friends often treat each other like shit and most often recover from it almost too quickly, but those interactions can also create lasting damage that may or may not manifest in everyday life. Donald Cried gives us a day outside of the everyday, where the victims of that damage are reunited, so many years later, with their mutual confidant, conspirator and co-tormentor: each other.

It becomes clear that feelings were deeply hurt and that the friendship at the center of the story was/is an unbalanced and unfair one. But it was and continues to be a real friendship nonetheless, a vital source of warmth and shelter, despite its many

and substantial failings.

Directed by Avedisian, from a script that he developed with Wakeman and Kyle Espeleta, Donald Cried harkens back to the salad days of independent moviemaking. It uses its own practical limitations as guidelines, opportunities to establish style in the absence of a large budget. There are no popular songs on the soundtrack (the movie in fact uses mostly diegetic sound), no big production numbers, very little stunt work and no intricate camera moves. To his credit, Avedisian even resists the tendency to let the shakiness of the camera become its own stylistic crutch.

Instead, the story comes to the fore, with the lens present mainly to document it.

This is throwback cinema in an unexpected and welcome way: It speaks to an era the influence of which is present everywhere but the simplicity and drive of which are increasingly absent in mainstream releases.

GHOST IN THE SHELL. More ’90s throwback stuff here, although I have to assume director Rupert Sanders (Snow White and the Huntsman, 2012) et al would rather actually have us forget the source material than return to it.

We are initially to believe that Major (Scarlett Johansson) is the first of her kind: a robotic body housing a rescued human brain, a true sentient cyborg. This is patently untrue, of course; she is simply the most successful example to date, but no matter. In the near future, Major is part of an elite counter-terrorism unit, a commando and a computer in the same body.

In the course of investigating a shadowy figure called Kuze, who is systematically destroying the minds behind Hanka Robotics, the company pioneering the field of human cybernetic enhancement.

As Major and her team draw ever closer to Kuze, she begins to question her own notions of identity and origin.

In fairness, it must be said that there are breathtakingly beautiful shots and sequences within Ghost in the Shell. The fact of the matter, though, is that they succeed because they so painstakingly copy the visual language, the tone and the atmosphere of dystopian anime; I fail to see what this remake adds, aside from reaffirming that Beat Takeshi is the biggest badass of all time. PG13. 107M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should under− stand 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 prop− erty. 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 infor− mation. 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, benefi− ciary, 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 cour− tesy 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 (844) 477− 7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 050997−CA. 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.
