Editor: Elizabeth Drabkin responded with a deeply felt retort to John Hardin’s offensive letter (“Letters,” July 3 and June 26, respectively), and I thank her for it, for when I read his letter, I was dumbstruck. Oh, I wanted to respond, give vent to the insult I felt. But words failed me. To liken me, a Jew, to anything other than what I am is an affront to my person. And to compare me, with my “curious” customs and food, to pot growers is not only ridiculous but reveals something much more insidious: the objectification of Jews — not just as the other but as something disagreeable. Mr. Hardin is certainly not alone in feeling free to slander Jews — and he likely did not even realize he was doing it. We Jews seem to be the last minority group it is OK to sully. Pity. Nan Abrams, Eureka
Feeling Apologetic Editor: My deep and sincere apologies to Ms. Drabkin, and any other NCJ readers who took offense to my recent letter to the editor (“Letters,” June 26). I did not, in any way, intend to belittle, deny or diminish the suffering that Jewish people have endured historically, or the prejudice and persecution against them that persists to this day, nor did I, in my letter, say anything to that effect. As I clearly stated in my letter, it was hyperbole in the extreme to compare the persecution and prejudice that medical marijuana patients have suffered and continue to endure, to the terrible history of anti-semitism, torture and wholesale slaughter perpetrated against Jewish people. However, millions of medical marijuana patients have been arrested and thrown in jail, where some of them have died as a direct result of being denied their medicine. Millions more medical marijuana patients have been denied jobs, thrown out of schools and/or lost their homes, because they use marijuana medicinally. Today, despite an ongoing, decades long, battle to legalize medical marijuana, strong social prejudices against medical marijuana patients persist, as clearly demonstrated by both the complaints from Willow Creek residents, and NCJ writer

Thadeus Greenson, who compared medical marijuana patients to oil company executives (“Behind the Brown Act,” May 8), a comparison I found terribly offensive, and it was that absurd and ridiculous level of hyperbole that I sought to match. No, medical marijuana patients have not suffered the horrors that the Jewish people have endured, but we have suffered enough. It is time to recognize the War on Drugs for the heinous crime against humanity that it is, and to bring this ugly chapter in American history to an end. John Hardin, Ettersburg
Lamb, It’s Delicious Editor: Your July 3 article “Hog Riled” reported that our only local USDA approved slaughter house will no longer accept hogs, but that’s not the only change. It also won’t accept sheep unless they have been sheared. Although this sounds catastrophic to sheep ranchers, I believe that in the long run it will force us to breed shedding meat sheep along with the rest of the world such as the British easy care, the Australian and New Zealand composites, the Australian Wiltipol, and the composite American Katahdin, which is now the leader in U.S. sheep registrations. In the U.S., per-capita lamb consumption is only about 0.88 pounds, while in contrast, in Australia and New Zealand it’s around 25 pounds. Americans are simply no longer accustomed to lamb and unaware that the lack of lanolin in shedding sheep makes their meat delicious. When you buy local lamb it encourages ranchers to buy new bloodlines. Our West Coast marine climate and pasturage is ideal for sheep. Genevieve Carlson, Arcata

Comment of the Week “Poor planning.”
Editor: If Ryan Hurley is going to write about “Ranking the News,” (“Game of Groans,” July 3), he should take the time to inform himself about news sources elsewhere in the county. The Southern Humboldt Life and Times has been defunct for several years. It was purchased and resuscitated as the Redwood Times. A reader who doesn’t know otherwise would think that they’re both still in print, AND that they’re the only newspapers in Southern Humboldt. Incidentally, I used to be a staff writer for The Independent, which you didn’t even bother to mention. Maybe it wasn’t part of Mr. HuddonCossar’s study because it wasn’t online. Maybe Hurley should have asked him that before commenting on affairs in SoHum. Cristina Bauss, Arcata Editor: I wasn’t going to say anything, but now that others have raised the topic (“Letters,” July 3), I agree that the Journal would be a better magazine without the bombast of the Buhne Tribune. Thank you. Susan Nolan, McKinleyville

A VISION FOR Jefferson Park and ComMunity Center

State of Jefferson The West Side community center blooms from the cracks By Grant Scott-Goforth grant@northcoastjournal.com
T
here’s life back in Jefferson School. A couple of years ago, the burgeoning warmth that now fills the hallways, classrooms, kitchen and grounds could only be imagined. Now, the chatter of school kids echoes down the hallways on a foggy summer afternoon. Heidi Benzonelli, co-director of the Westside Community Improvement Association, which purchased and is operating the Jefferson School site, has nearly enough exuberance by herself to fill up the broad, hardwood-floored halls. She strides around the property, breathlessly listing the projects and partnerships that are helping the community center bloom. For Benzonelli and other neighbors in Eureka’s West Side, the building sat as a reminder of a loss to neighborhood kids, who bent holes in its grim chain link fences to gain access to outdoor basketball hoops. Vandalism and break-ins became routine. That’s changing. Jefferson School — located on B Street between Washington and West Clark — is very much a work in progress. The rooms of the north wing aren’t usable for much more than storage, for the time being. But

it’s a far cry from the derelict husk that sat unused by children for six years until 2011. And the flames of controversy have largely settled from when the community center was forged. Eureka city councilmembers who once quashed the city’s involvement with the project — drawing the neighborhood’s ire — have since volunteered at building days on the school’s grounds. To hear it from Benzonelli, the center’s momentum is nearly unstoppable. “We’re a multi-million-dollar organization overnight,” she said. Three years after negotiating the purchase of the Jefferson School with a $3.3 million grant, the property is paid off, bills are paid on time and the Westside Community Improvement Association has no debt, Benzonelli said. The Eureka Design Review Committee was beyond pleased with the latest architectural plans for the school, Benzonelli said, unanimously approving them on July 9. The plans call for replacing the austere blacktop with trees, fields, basketball and bocce courts: all part of a spruced up westfacing entrance to the building. One playground has already been built with help from a national nonprofit that specializes in creating kid-friendly neighborhood structures. Another community planning day is scheduled for the end of July, which will give the WCIA direction
on how to convert the rest of the school grounds’ old asphalt. A group of California Conservation Corps trainees is going to install solar panels — a project that will not only lower energy costs for the school, but will teach the corps members a valuable trade skill and allow them to do similar projects at other area schools. That project reflects the philosophy that Benzonelli and WCIA board member Richard Evans perhaps most value. They want to see every project at the school benefit the kids who study, eat and play there; their parents, who have nearby affordable places for their kids to spend time while they work; the neighbors who volunteer their time; the young people who work and train there; and the organizers who are committed to maintaining the space. And Benzonelli said she’s seen evidence of just that. Last fall Carrie Maschmeier, who works for the Ink People, contacted WCIA about rental space. She had been teaching dance for years, and was looking to open her own dance studio. The inprogress Jefferson School seemed like a natural place to hold classes, Maschmeier said, because of its space, location and the WCIA’s focus on making programs available to neighborhood kids. After a successful season, and two sold-out Nutcracker performances with students from her classes at Jefferson and other dancers, Maschmeier was able to renovate and open her own studio, The Dance Scene. Since the beginning of the year, she’s been offering classes to a broad age range of students there — including about half of the students that had taken classes with her at Jefferson. Benzonelli called Maschmeier’s classes

“wildly successful,” and a perfect example of how the center can help kids and promote business. It’s what Evans called community buy-in, and a big reason why the improvement association is taking things a little slower and involving the neighborhood every step of the way. Even if it’s harder to organize, and only sometimes more cost effective, bringing people in to brainstorm, build, maintain and put the school to use returns that investment to the community, Evans said. At this point, most of the center’s income is from the groups that rent the facility. The bike kitchen, which refurbishes bikes in exchange for money or volunteer hours, occupies a room in the south wing of the building. The Redwood Community Action Agency board of directors meets at Jefferson. Parent Voices, a parent advocacy group, does too. And a Girl Scouts troop. Plus a host of music, dance and other community courses. The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence meet there on Sunday mornings. The county Department of Health and Human Services funds the Family Resource Center on the campus and pays for Benzonelli’s assistant. The USDA pays for the group’s new summertime lunch program for youth, including a chef and food security specialist position. Two part-time workers from the Boys and Girls Club help the afterschool program, which operates day-long during the summer. In the three years since the WCIA purchased Jefferson School, Benzonelli and Evans say frustrations from that time have been all but forgotten. In 2010, the organization had been negotiating a deal with the city of Eureka in which the city would buy the building and lease it to the organization. Three newly elected city council members — Lance Madsen, Marian Brady and Mike Newman — shelved
submit purchase of the building in early 2011. The neighborhood was incensed. But tempers have cooled, and lessons have been learned. “The one thing that we learned is that politics is a poison pill,” Benzonelli said. “We do not take sides.” Benzonelli said she enforces an “absolute ban” on politics and campaigning involving the project, as any political clout the school project could lend isn’t worth jeopardizing what it has accomplished. “This is hallowed ground,” she said. Mike Newman — who had campaigned on ending the city’s involvement with the project — attended a playground building ceremony this year, Evans said, and was welcomed. With maybe a hint of unspoken “I told you so,” Benzonelli said there has been less graffiti, fewer broken windows since the association bought the building and the community reinvested in the property. “Every year we grow. We’re adaptable. The image of this neighborhood is changing with every window fixed. People have to tell a new story.” The association is in talks with College of the Redwoods — a rival for the property before the WCIA purchased it — to build an infant-toddler center and offer student training opportunities. Eventually, Benzonelli hopes a charter school will take over the south wing of the school. “Ultimately we would like to see elementary education available to kids on the west side again.” That’s all possible, she said, with the continued investment of the neighbors, businesses and nonprofits that have been committed so far. Cumulative work by the community added up quickly. “You have to give a little and you never know what it’s going to turn into,” Benzonelli said. “I never think, ‘That’s not going to help,’ anymore.” l

as a climber; I’d climb trees as a stress releaser.” But he started seeing stuff up there in the canopy — ferns, other tree species, slugs, salamanders — and the trees themselves became interesting to him, he said. He began to wonder how long they’d been up there, how much they weighed, what their above-ground biomass was, how much wood they could make and what their growth potential was. Franklin, who said he is nearing 80 years old, said he started out his career primarily thinking about trees. “And the trees inspired me,” said Franklin, who is also on the Pacific Forest Members of the Pacific Forest Trust’s Board of Trust board. “But now I think Directors walk around in Humboldt’s van Eck Forest. about ecosystems. “We in Courtesy of Pacific Forest Trust. All rights reserved. this [Pacific Northwest forestry] community have really defined the concept of old forests for the rest of the world.” The enormous old-growth redwoods people fought to preserve here were, he said, the last frontier; everyone else had cut their old trees down. “But it was more profound than that,” Franklin said. “These forests were extraordinary: in their longevity, in their massiveness, in their dominance of evergreen conifers. Most forests in the world are dominated by deciduous trees, by the flowerers.” He said it interested him, as a young man, that other scientists ignored the redwoods at the University of Washington in Seattle. and “were off studying deciduous forests Franklin’s research in the 1980s helped and defining old forests through them.” reveal the ecological importance of oldIn fact, he said, the redwoods represent growth redwood forests to numerous a forest’s great potential. critters, notably to the northern spotted Which is where the questioning owl — which led to the timber wars as eventually turned: What is the potential environmentalists and loggers squared of an old-growth forest — especially, off.

bout 70 forest lovers and tree studiers gathered recently up at Humboldt State University to listen to two “gurus” of the old growth forest realm engage in a discussion about how forest stewardship can promote old-growth functions that benefit “climate, wildlife, water, and a sustained resource economy,” as the Pacific Forest Trust’s invitation to the lecture said. The Pacific Forest Trust is a nonprofit that works to conserve working forests (and sell carbon credits from them). Its board was in town for a meeting and to wander in the Van Eck Forest north of Arcata, a 2,200-acre working redwood forest the trust manages under a conservation easement. And the gurus? One was Stephen Sillett, professor and Kenneth L. Fisher Chair in Redwood Forest Ecology at HSU, whose work focuses on the ecology of tall trees and their forests and has been featured in National Geographic. The other was Jerry Franklin, professor of ecosystem analysis

and shed masses of biomass as they grow old, losing as much carbon as they’re fixing through photosynthesis. Look inside the oldest eucs, he said: They’re hollow. Redwoods grow more slowly than eucalyptus, but a great deal of the new wood they make turns quickly into decayresistant heartwood, which stores more carbon. And here’s the exciting thing: Sillett and his research team have determined that the oldest redwoods in the forest are the fastest growing — because they’re big, he said, meaning they have more leaves. And this enables them to pack on more heartwood. “In a 2,000-year-old redwood, 95 percent of the annual wood production is converted to decay-resistant heartwood,” Sillett said. Franklin said the old redwood forest’s capacity to sequester carbon exceeds that of other ecosystems “by a factor of three or four.” Sillett made a potentially unpopular statement when the talk turned to bolstering the old forests to withstand climate change. There’s talk, he said, of what happens if there’s less fog in the future. But actually, he said, there’s been a decline in cloud cover for years, and redwoods are thriving. “With a decline in cloud cover there’s a spike in wood production,” he said. “Redwoods in Humboldt show wood production that is 40 percent higher now than it’s been in the last several hundred years. The most pronounced is in Redwood National Park. … Why? More light availability. So is that climate change?” Climate change, in this case anyway, is not a simple “bad” thing, he said. “There’s good and bad.” But both scientists agreed to the concept of restoring the complexity of forests, especially where long-term fire suppression has upset the forest balance. Franklin suggested, for carbon sequestration, having forest managers adopt longer rotations between selective cutting, and that the oldest, big trees be left alone. He ruffled some feathers when he said everybody agreed now that big trees are off the table, some in the audience taking that to mean he thought the fight to save the old-timers was over. “There are still demands and pressures on old forests,” a woman said. Sillett suggested rethinking the rotation concept altogether, and looking instead at individual tree selection, while leaving the big trees be. He and his team are studying the effects of thinning the areas around big trees and have found that the big trees’ rates of growth skyrocket afterward. l

Blog Jammin’ GOVERNMENT
EDUCATION
Eureka Finance Director Paul Rodrigues is resigning his post with the city, having accepted a position that will allow him to spend more time with his kids, something he feels is very necessary in the wake of his wife’s death. The move could impact a tax measure on the city’s ballot this fall. Hired by the city in December 2010, Rodrigues said he’s loved working for Eureka, but that the demands of the job have become too much since his wife, Conna, died of a brain aneurysm in October at the age of 45. “This is a really big job and there’s a level of stress associated with it, but more so, it’s just more than a 40-hour-a-week job and it’s just more time than I have to give,” he said. “There’s a great staff here that’s working a ton of hours, and it’s really not fair for them that their director is not doing it alongside them.” Rodrigues accepted a position with the Humboldt Community Services District, which he said he expects to be a bit lower-key than his position with Eureka. City Manager Greg Sparks said Deputy Finance Director Wendy Howard will likely step in and serve in an acting capacity until the city hires a permanent replacement. After passing a tight budget that saw 10-percent cuts across all departments, Eureka is asking voters in November to approve Measure Q and extend a temporary .5-percent transaction and use tax. In 2010, voters approved Measure O, which introduced the temporary tax increase and was due to sunset in 2016. Now, city officials are saying that losing the tax would potentially trigger crippling cuts to the city’s police and fire departments. As the debate surrounding Measure Q heats up in the coming months, it seems likely some focus will be put on how Measure O funds were spent and specifically whether the bulk of the additional revenue was channeled to public safety as officials promised while campaigning for the measure. Sparks said not having Rodrigues for those conversations will pose a challenge. “It is certainly, probably, a concern,” he said. “I really want to, over the next couple of weeks, spend more of my own time dealing with some of the Measure Q stuff as we prepare the information piece of that campaign so voters really understand how Measure O dollars were spent, where the money went and how measure Q will be used, as well.”

ynthetic weed. Let that sink in for a minute. Talk about complicating things. A small, brightly colored foil packet — like ones filled with vitamin powder — labeled “Not For Human Consumption.” Inside, some kind of dried, ground-up organic matter, doused in some chemical, concocted in some lab, meant to mimic THC. Sound sketchy? Yes, Northern California is spoiled by an abundance of above-board weed, much grown sans chemicals. But don’t take that for granted. Somewhere, people have to smoke fake weed. Well, “have to” might be putting it a bit strongly, but what these purveyors of pseudo-irieness possess is a quasi-legitimate façade. The individual-use packets of laboratory produced “pot” are sold in head shops worldwide under titles like “Spice” and “Kronic” and are widely available online. For many years, to the buyer’s chagrin, “such products usually consisted of plant mixtures with little psychoactive effects,” according to a United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime report. But since 2004, more and more “herbal highs” have turned up positive for synthetic cannabinoids, the report says. It’s not just THC that manufacturers are trying to mimic. The UN also reported that 348 “new psychoactive substances” — including variations on methamphetamines and MDMA — have been reported by law enforcement agencies and drug laboratories worldwide since 2009. Those substances come in a variety of names and effects. You’ve heard of some before: bath salts, designer drugs, laboratory reagents. By “new,” the UN means that the drugs have been developed (or proliferated) since the organization held conventions in 1961 and 1971 and identified 234 psychoactive substances. Many individual nations have taken legislative action against the slurry of drugs that have popped up since
then, but, according to a 2014 report, there is no international law enforcement framework and little known about how the laws affect the global trade. Learning more about synthetic drugs was the key purpose of a recent study that — among other things — showed how difficult it is to learn much of anything about synthetic drugs. European and North American nations reported the most new drugs to the UN study, but that could be survey bias: Identifying the drugs requires sophisticated and dedicated laboratories. The effects of using synthetic cannabinoids are little understood, but studies cited by the UN report indicate that cardiovascular problems, psychological disorders, seizures and irregular heartbeat could be side effects. Additionally, the report reads, “an analysis of synthetic cannabinoids in ‘spice-like’ herbal blends highlighted the increasing number of reports of suicides associated with preceding use of these products.” Lacking any pretention of medicinal value, synthetic weed seems clearly marketed toward people who like glitzy packaging or have a hard time finding weed. Like kids, perhaps. If the idea of smoking up some flammable plant matter dusted with test tube THC bothers you a bit, support your local dispensary and buy sourced, organic pot products grown on a real plant. And if the UN report is doom and gloom in its assessment of the global fad of designer drugs, there’s a bright side. The Office on Drugs and Crime seems to lament a lack of good data about the production and consumption of synthetic drugs, warning against a knee-jerk reaction to the office’s latest research. “[New psychoactive substances] are also a challenge for prevention and treatment. Instead of moral panic, objective and credible information is needed,” the report reads. It sounds positively progressive. ●

My House is Your Hotel
As alternative lodging sites soar in popularity, regulators sharpen their gaze Story and photos by Heidi Walters

T
om and Kath Collom’s home sits in a short row of similarly pointy-roofed, 1902 saltbox Victorians in a semi-industrial neighborhood just north of Eureka’s Old Town. The bay is close by, as is the first of several bridges inchworming across to the Samoa Peninsula. The houses are cute, their surroundings humble. On a weekday evening, the loud hum of a refrigeration business permeates the atmosphere. At a nearby apartment complex, a guy missing his front teeth helps breaks down cardboard boxes inside a fenced recycling station. “I’m homeless,” he says. Three cats — no, four … five, maybe more — wander in and out of the sidewalk in front of an elderly neighbor’s house, stopping to lick paws and sidle up to strange pant legs. The Colloms’ own cat, a fluffy black-and-rust named Tab, flops on the couple’s small porch, unfazed by a new person walking up the steps. After several knocks, the bright blue door opens and a smiling Kath says, “Come in!” The Colloms’ house is one of about 160 places in Humboldt County listed for rent on Airbnb, a lodging website where people with spare room hook up with travelers looking for something other than the typical hotel experience: wine and flowers on the table, perhaps, or star-gazing from an outdoor claw-foot tub, and maybe fresh local coffee, breakfast, local lore, travel tips and new friends. There are similar sites, including VRBO (“Vacation Rental By Owner”), but Airbnb is the youngest and most thriving. It boasts 11 million guests and 600,000-plus listings in at least 34,000 cities in 192 countries, according to co-founder Brian Chesky. It’s valued now at $10 billion by major investors, making it larger than big hotel chains such as Hyatt, according to the New York Times. It’s especially taken off in the last couple years. Two and a half years ago, when the Colloms decided to convert Tom’s former “man room” into a short-term rental and list it on Airbnb, there were at most a dozen listings in Humboldt on the site, says Kath. In the time since, despite the proliferation of competition, the Colloms have had 270 reservations amounting to about 600 guests. This June it was booked 19 out of the 30 days. Other Humboldt spaces show equally strong bookings. Like many Airbnb hosts, the Colloms, who moved to Humboldt from Petaluma in 2000, got into it to help pay off their mortgage. But they’ve become hooked on the social aspect. They’ve had guests from all over the world: Australia, China, Sweden, the Netherlands, England — well, just about every country in Europe and then some, says Tom. And while some guests pass through with just the briefest of interactions, others make a lasting impression. During the last presidential election, Tom says, laughing, guests from “at least seven different countries” offered him and Kath “asylum” if Mitt Romney won. “At first it was weird to have strangers in our home,” Tom says. “But now when we don’t have guests it’s like, ‘Where are the people?’” Ah, all those people. They make tax collectors, hoteliers, housing advocates and others wonder: Are these alternativehotel guests paying local taxes, as they would have to if they stayed in a traditional hotel? Do their hosts have business licenses? Are host houses zoned for vacation rentals? Are these residential short-term rentals impacting the hotel industry’s revenues? Are they hogging housing stock in tight markets? Battles rage around the planet over these issues. Locally, our cities and the county are in various stages of dealing with them. Furthest along is the city of Trinidad, where 17 percent of the housing stock is tied up in vacation rentals, many of which list through Airbnb.

under the cottage industry provisions. If a residentially zoned rental has only short-term guests, the homeowner can apply for a v-combined (“v” for vacation) overlay, which “establishes some performance criteria,” Werner says. “It requires a special permit,” he says. “They could come into the planning department, apply, a notice would go out to the neighborhood and an opportunity would be provided to request a public hearing before the planning commission.” Then the owner can get a business license and go through the health and safety inspections that process requires, and start paying those hotel and tourism business district taxes. The only place where there’s a broadscale v-combined zone overlay now, Werner says, is in portions of Shelter Cove. But there’s talk about establishing an overarching vacation overlay pattern for the entire county, he says.

home in Trinidad to vacationers. She lives in San Francisco now. She says she tried selling the home she and her ex-husband rebuilt 20 years ago. She tried renting it long term, using a property management company — but quit after a renter turned it into a marijuana grow house. Now she lets Reinman handle it. “Mike is very expensive,” she says. “But he takes care of the cleaning, garden, insurance, water, utilities, Internet and maintenance. You get suitcases ramming into walls, and it’s not like your own house where if something breaks you can just live with it. You have to fix it right away.” Even so, she makes more money from the short-term renters. But that’s not to say there aren’t problems. Once, a college student rented the place, invited a few friends over, word

Airbnb has a built-in vetting system with its reviews section, in which hosts and guests critique each other on their respective member profiles. Still, not every match works out. The Colloms say they had a guest who complained incessantly about their decorations. Garcia, with the West End Road farm house, once had a guest from Alabama whose mom made his reservation using her profile. He was 24, and very sick. “His health was so bad,” Garcia says. He seemed addled, she says, like a starving person. He couldn’t figure out the bus schedule to town, and he begged her to go continued on next page

She didn’t know if she should call social services. “I was really worried,” she says. “I emailed his mom and said, ‘Your son needs in-home care and that’s not what I’m offering and do you know that his health is so bad?’” She didn’t hear back from the man’s mother and, after his three reserved days, he left. But, Garcia says, mostly her experiences have been good. And she’ll probably keep hosting even if she has to start collecting local taxes. She’d probably raise her rates, though, which bothers her. A school teacher, Garcia rents to university students in the fall and spring. During college graduation, she rents to students’ families. In the summer she rents to vacationers, most here to see the redwoods en route to San Francisco or Portland. She gets several recurring guests, including San Francisco optometrist Lois Valenti, who occasionally works at Site for Sore Eyes in Eureka. Valenti says Garcia’s home is the only Airbnb she’s used. “I like having Jenn and the other guests to talk to,” she says. “Jenn has invited me to go dancing and we have made dinners with her friends and guests.” This coziness that can develop, these friendships — that’s what Airbnb is about, say the Colloms. But being regulated might prompt them to shut their cheery door to the traveling set. “Last year we made $11,000,” Kath Collom says. “So to tax that at 12 percent, it wouldn’t be worth it anymore. We’d have to charge more.” And that goes against the low-impact,

Electric Co.’s power plant south of Eureka. Their favorite was 3-year-old Ari from a small island in Vancouver who played three-string guitar astonishingly well. “The Chinese guests were a trip,” says Tom. The three, two women and a man, barely knew each other, he continues. They had signed up on a travel board at work. But the women waited on the man hand and foot; when Kath asked about it they said that’s their culture. They spent their days sightseeing in the redwoods, and at night they grew generous and a little wild. “Their first night I get home, walk in, and the table’s spread out with food,” Tom recalls. “The guy wouldn’t even let me take a shower. He sat me down and fed me, and pretty soon out comes the gallon of Carlo Rossi sangria — you know, that really sweet stuff.” The man kept filling Tom’s glass. Finally, the Colloms escaped to bed. Later they heard someone wailing downstairs. They listened, wondering if they should go check. They decided not to. The next night, Tom asked the man about it. “He looked at one of the women and said, ‘She had a lot to drink and she went crazy,’” Tom says. He and Kath laugh, remembering fondly. They have more stories: The man from Florida who came here with his chemistry degree and was high as a kite the whole time. The woman from Princeton University who never did find their place. But also the many, many guests who walked in strangers and walked out friends. That’s what makes Airbnb special, says Kath. “It’s all about connections,” she says. ●

(The pageant was also presented on Saturday on the Arcata Plaza.) Jason Meyer, owner of Crush, and Shawn Phillips, put out one last order for the night at the brand new food truck, Retro Wagon, parked behind Redwood Curtain Brewery on Friday, July 11.

y memories of eating freshly harvested corn as a child in Italy involve a field and fire, but no pot or butter. I ate corn at most once a year, if, on harvest day, we happened to visit family friends who grew some to feed their
Roasted Corn Salad with Cherry Tomatoes, Avocado and Lemon Cucumber Serves 4 as a side dish Ingredients and method: 2 fresh ears of corn, still in their husks and with their silks attached (otherwise wrap them in foil before roasting) 2 dozen cherry tomatoes 1 lemon cucumber or Boothby’s blonde cucumber 1 ripe medium-sized avocado 1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt A light sprinkling of freshly ground black pepper 1/2 teaspoon sherry vinegar A few leaves of fresh basil, rolled and cut into a chiffonade
chickens. We roasted ears of corn over an outdoor fire, which was memorable more for the unusual (for my family) campingstyle eating than for the flavor of the corn. My appreciation of the latter came after I moved to California. Sweet corn, a natural variant of field
Preheat the oven to 450 F. Place the corn on a baking sheet with a bit of space between ears and roast it for 20 minutes. Let the ears cool briefly, then remove the husks and silks. Working in a shallow bowl or dish, use a knife to separate the kernels and scrapings from the cob. (Save the empty cobs to make stock or broth.) Cut the cherry tomatoes in half, and peel and dice the lemon cucumber. Dice the avocado. Put all the ingredients in a bowl, add the salt, pepper and sherry vinegar and toss gently. Sprinkle on the basil and toss again. Enjoy.

corn that stores more sugar in its kernels, is harvested before it matures, while the sugar content is still high. As soon as an ear is detached from its mother plant, the sugar starts turning into starch. The proximity of field to pot used to be important to preserve flavor, since in older varieties of sweet corn, much of the sugar turns into starch a day after picking. In varieties developed in recent decades, however, a higher amount of sugar in the kernel paired with a slower transformation means the plot-to-pot urgency is less intense. Mounds of corn ears at a farmers market stall or at a farm stand are irresistible. The ears are mostly zipped up in their husk jackets and their silks flow out at the top like fashionably rumpled hair. The impulse is to strip away the husks to reveal the pale or golden kernels, plump and fresh from the field, but I keep my hands in check so I can roast the fully dressed corn in the oven. The beauty of this method, which I discovered in Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone by Deborah Madison, is that it requires no preparation beyond turning on the oven. I place the ears exactly as purchased, with husks and silks attached, on a baking sheet large enough to hold them with some breathing room around each one. After roasting them for 20 minutes, I take the sheet out of the oven and let the ears cool slightly before using a knife to separate the kernels from the cob — and tasting a handful as I ply the blade. I use roasted corn to make a variety of dishes, from soup to salad to cornbread. When combined with cherry tomatoes, the result is a salad with a “summer squared” flavor. Parting note: The sweetness of sweet corn has nothing to do with high-fructose corn syrup, which is made through a chemical process that transforms corn starch into fructose. And if you are concerned about genetically modified sweet corn (according to a 2013 investigation, a rare occurrence in U.S. grocery stores), ask the farmer or vendor, or purchase organic sweet corn, which by definition is not genetically modified. ● Simona Carini also writes about her adventures in the kitchen on her blog: http://www.pulcetta.com.

Coming Home
Beyond The Whiskey Rebellion By Jennifer Savage thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com
Thursday: Sparse and sophisticated
Christian Lee Hutson is one of a new generation of American singer-songwriters clearly drawn toward the traditional, but not hampered by tradition. His music has a certain elegance, more Bulleit than Jack, which likely accounts for the 24-year-old Huston’s having already shared stages with Damien Jurado, Ralph Stanley and Father John Misty. All the aforementioned stages were likely bigger than the room at Redwood Curtain Brewing Co., where you can find Hutson at 10 p.m. The show is 21-and-over and free.
WHO:
Christian Lee Hutson
WHEN:
Thursday, July 17 at 10 p.m.
Thursday: Raucous and rockin’
Humboldt Brews offers a relatively big-name-in-bluegrass moment with the Grammy-nominated Infamous Stringdusters — the band’s new album Let It Go spent four weeks on the Americana Radio Chart top 10. Tickets are $15, show starts at 8 p.m., Whiskey Shivers opens.
Friday/Saturday: Jazzy and genuine
Trinidadians, take note: The Westhaven Center for the Arts looks to be hopping this weekend. On Friday at 7 p.m., the RLA Trio (Tim Randles, Mike LaBolle and
Bobby Amirkhan) performs with guest singer Claire Bent , reputed to be “the finest young jazz singer in town.” Cover is $5 to $10 sliding scale. On Saturday night, former local boy Dave Fleschner and Alan Hager recreate the magic of last year’s sold-out show with just a piano, guitar and oodles of talent. Reservations recommended. Tickets are $12 WCA members, $15 general.
Friday: Josephine and Joanne
Another formerHumboldtian returns for an evening of song, story and collaboration. Josephine Johnson joins Joanne Rand for an evening boasting not only lovely and earnest singer-songwriteriness, but fresh soup, bread, beer, wine, coffee, tea and “general conviviality.” Doors WHERE: open at 7 p.m. Music Redwood Curtain starts at 8 p.m. Brewing Company Suggested donation TICKETS: Free is $10 to $15 sliding PHOTO COURTESY OF THE ARTIST scale. It’s a house party — contact crib1251@gmail.com or call 4998516 for more information.

rockers” play the Logger Bar. Since The Rubberneckers’ heyday, the Logger Bar fell on hard times, closed down and then was resurrected by the loving ministrations of Kate Martin and the Blue Lake community. Meanwhile, Smith moved on to Florida, Greg Lojko (guitar, vocals) left for New York and Brendan Otto (drums) has moved, according to Google Plus, somewhere in Iowa — the only member still around is B.T. Hollister, who can be seen playing bass in various projects of coolness from time to time. Now, sure, a lot of romanticism surrounds Smith’s return — The Rubberneckers were known as much for their onstage drama as their Blue Lake-lovin’ cowpunk — but the music was always legit, fast and fun in a way that made you harken back to those whiskey-drenched nights filled with bad decisions and, despite your good intentions, you know you’ll likely find yourself there again, usually by the time the band kicks into “Wasted Tonight.” We look forward to Smith’s return, which begins at 5 p.m., is free and limited to those 21-and-over.

Saturday: Religion and red right hands
When I first glanced at the email heralding this show, I blanched. Not because of the headliner, one Reverend Red, a band reminiscent of another Reverend best known for triggering a psychobilly freakout along with the dark influence of a Let Love In-era Nick Cave — music I love — but because these guys are from my home town, a forsaken place that I left as soon as I could and continue to harbor a grudge against, where all the speed freaks and born-again Christians with their oddly similar Republican politics made life hell for those of us who believed in equality and creativity and science and culture and and and … OK, deep breath … it’s probably better now — although given the weight of Rev Red’s music, maybe not. Find out in detail when the band lands in the Alibi. Usual $5/21-and-over/11 p.m. agenda.
Monday: Consciousness and St. Croix

Humboldt loves its folk music so much that we’re surprised they haven’t married yet. The Humboldt Folklife Society pays tribute to the folksier things in life every year with an entire week of twangy, acoustic folkiness. The Humboldt Folklife Festival runs through Saturday, July 19 with a different folky focus each night. Thursday, July 17 is Outlaw Country Night at 5:30 p.m. in the Dell’Arte Amphitheater, with alternative country performances by Gunsafe, Cliff Dallas and the Death Valley Troubadours and Rooster McClintock ($10). Don’t miss the after party at the Logger Bar with Decency taking the stage at 9 p.m. (free). You can’t celebrate folk without a good, old-fashioned hoedown. On Friday, July 18 at 7:30 p.m. in the Arcata Veteran’s Hall, the Striped Pig Stringband Barn Dance ($7, $6 members) is a foot-stomping good time, regardless of your level of dance experience. Start the evening with a few quick lessons and then dance your way into the night. Saturday, July 19 is the grand finale, with the All Day Free Festival. Bands take to two stages and play all day from 11 a.m. to after 7 p.m. The ampitheater stage features Lyndsey Battle, the Compost Mountain Boys, Absynth Quintet and more, while the Street stage is host to For Folk Sake, the Georgia Handshakers, Josephine Johnson and many others. Then comes the icing on the cake, with the reunion of Humboldt favorite Que La Chinga at the after party at the Logger Bar at 9 p.m. (free). What the folk are you waiting for? Head over to the Folklife Society website and get your tickets for a full, folkin’ week of folkin’ awesome performances. — Dev Richards

People are no longer shocked by tattoos, you say? Challenge accepted. The Enigma, whose face and entire body (just going to take his word for it) are covered in blue puzzle pieces, returns to Eureka with Circus Emporium Roadshow for the Sexy Science Sideshow at Synapsis on Sunday, July 20 at 8 p.m. ($7). It’s doubtful the evening will be either sexy or genuinely scientific, but you’re guaranteed the sideshow part. Expect a cavalcade of stunts you shouldn’t try at home, some involving electricity and chainsaws, and at least one lightsaber swallowing. Keep your Jedi robes on, Star Wars fans — it’s not a real one. Nonetheless, sparks will fly, piercings will jingle and nails will be driven through appendages. Do we really need to patronize out-of-towners when we’ve got plenty of freaks right here in Humboldt? Localistas will be happy to learn that homegrown sideshow shenanigans from Shea Freelove and Ginger Snap are also on the bill, so you can see a couple of our own undergoing all kinds of iffy “experiments” on stage. It’s going to be more Frankenstein than Einstein. Feel free to stare. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

Dawn takes Planet of the Apes to the next level By John J. Bennett filmland@northcoastjournal.com
Review
DAWN OF THE PLANET OF THE APES. The previous installment in this set of prequels, Rise of the Planet of the Apes (2011), somehow escaped my attention until this past weekend. I wish somebody had told me what I was missing. I was taken aback by the quality of the effects and the excitement of the action sequences, sure. But I was particularly surprised and impressed by the gravity and melancholy with which the movie is suffused. As the growing flame of Caesar (Andy Serkis) the ape’s intelligence burned his hope into the ash of cynicism, I was brought to the verge of tears and kept there. This follow-up retains some of that profound sadness, but ups the ante on the action and interpersonal conflict, with strikingly pleasing results. Set 10 years after the events of Rise, Dawn shows us an Earth decimated by the “simian flu.” The same experimental drug that created intelligence in apes proved deadly to humans and created a global pandemic. Only the tiny percentage of the human population genetically immune to the ravages of the disease have survived. Cities are vacant, with nature well on its way to reclaiming them. A small group of survivors has banded together in the ruins of San Francisco. As their fuel supply dwindles, they send a reconnaissance team into the wilds north of the city to attempt to restore the operation of a hydroelectric power plant. Trouble is, the dam in question lies deep inside the territory where the apes have established their home. Potential disaster looms as Malcolm (Jason Clarke) negotiates an uneasy peace with Caesar, the apes’ heretofore undisputed leader. They are inclined to trust each other, but Caesar’s lieutenant Koba (Toby Kebbell) sees only evil in the humans. Meanwhile, in San Francisco, Dreyfus (Gary Oldman) prepares for a preemptive strike on the apes. The two groups are cast into conflict from within and without. Dawn manages to combine art and entertainment with such grace that it looks simple. The visual effects are stunning, the
battle sequences gorgeously chaotic and innovatively photographed. At the same time, the story is shot through with an emotional authenticity generally unseen in summer blockbusters. All of the principal characters, ape and human alike, live on screen with an air of having survived something catastrophic, at great cost. Director Matt Reeves (Cloverfield) focuses a bit more on the action than did Rupert Wyatt in Rise, but he never loses his grip on the themes of trust, loss and betrayal that drive the narrative. PG13. 130m. — John J. Bennett
Previews
AMERICA. The trailer for director Dinesh D’Souza’s slow-mo history class project asks what the world would be like without America. If he’s referring to this film, probably fine. PG13. 103m. BEGIN AGAIN. In the follow-up to Once, a former music exec (Mark Ruffalo) discovers a singer (Keira Knightly) busking after a breakup with her musical and romantic partner. PG13. 130m. PLANES: FIRE AND RESCUE. Sequel to the animated Cars spin-off, with voice work by Dane Cook and Julie Bowen. PG. 84m. THE PURGE: ANARCHY. Horror sequel about citizens gone wild in a violent American dystopia. PG13. 130m. SEX TAPE. Cameron Diaz and Jason Segel play a married couple who accidentally leak their home movie and spend a panicked night trying to get it back. R. 95m.
Continuing
22 JUMP STREET. It ain’t broke, and they ain’t fixing it. Jonah Hill and Channing Tatum return as undercover cops busting a college drug ring in this funny and selfaware comedy. R. 112m. CHEF. Jon Favreau stars in this well done food-truck road movie that cuts through professional kitchen bravado to real humanity and warmth. With Robert Downey Jr. and John Leguizamo. Bring napkins. R. 115m.
EARTH TO ECHO. A group of youngsters find a friendly alien and help him phone, ahem, sorry, get home. PG. 89m. THE FAULT IN OUR STARS. Beat the rush and start crying now. Adapted from John Green’s novel with excellent performances from Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort as the young, star-crossed lovers. PG13. 126m. HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 2. Transportive animation and talented voice acting create a world worth revisiting and a story with humor and real drama. PG. 102m. MALEFICENT. An atmospheric, goodlooking fantasy with a sharpened Angelina Jolie as the fairytale party crasher from Sleeping Beauty. Heavy on CGI, light on character and not quite scary enough. PG. 98m. TAMMY. Melissa McCarthy plays a woman on a wild and wooly rock-bottom road trip with her hard-drinking grandmother, played by Susan Sarandon. R. 102m. TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION. Even game actors and fun cameos can’t save the planet from the thin plot and epic running time of the latest Michael Bay disaster. He might have tried more dinosaurs. PG13. 165m. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill l July 18JULY 23

The property address and other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 1295 RAILROAD AVE, MCKINLEYVILLE, CA 95519 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. Total amount of the unpaid balance of the obligation secured by the property to be sold and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of the initial publication of the Notice of Sale is: $135,494.06 In addition to cash, the trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state. In the event tender other than cash is accepted the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right.

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 888-988-6736 or visit this Internet Web site salestrack.tdsf. com, using the file number assigned to this case PFI-140415. 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.

Arcata
Riley Parker pitches for Arcata.
McKinleyville TOC Champs.
McKinleyville relaxing post-season.
Murphy’s Supports Local Little League When the McKinleyville Little League boys team won the Humboldt County Tournament of Champions at the beginning of the summer, its players were probably were thinking more about the pizza parties and trophies then they were about being part of a three-decade tradition. But back in 1983, Murphy’s Market made a commitment to local youth sports that has inspired a couple generations of kids learning teamwork and athleticism. That tradition continued through the McKLL Murphy’s tight win over rivals on Arcata Little League’s Humboldt Outfitters in post-season play. The score was tied 3-3 until Murphy’s bats fired up in the final inning, powering the preteens to a bench-clearing 6-3 celebration. “We won a tough, tough game,” says Murphy’s Coach Carlos Avelar. Additionally, the McKinleyville Murphy’s had to scrap past Murphy’s Arcata Boys team at the Fortuna-based TOC. For Avelar, the win was all the sweeter. He’d been coaching local little league for three decades. And what’s more, it was the Sunny Brae Murphy’s Store Manager’s enthusiasm
for coaching that led to owner Pat Murphy’s support for kids’ sports. When an Arcata Little League sponsor backed out 30-years ago, Murphy’s stepped up to the plate, then expanded to McKinleyville Little League and into Mad River Youth Soccer. Today, Murphy’s sponsors teams in both baseball leagues. The store makes sure the kids look good with sponsorships funding high-end uniforms so they feel like pros. “This is about the kids, not about me,” says Avelar. Still, it’s been Avelar’s 42 years (!) of youth sports involvement that turned him into a great coach. The Murphy’s manager first started working with kids when he was still at Arcata High School. Over the years, it’s become almost year round, coaching 8th Girls Basketball at McKinleyville Middle School and 8th grade Boys Basketball at Sunny Brae Middle School. “You want to show them that hard work is going to be gained on the field. If you’re upfront with kids, they usually respond,” he says. “I’m not out there to babysit kids. But I continue to emphasize that being a team
player is the most important thing.” It’s what Murphy’s is about, a vow to support kids’ sports that is backed by Murphy’s Market owner Pat Murphy. “He’s always been a supporter of my time with the kids… as long as the store gets taken care of,” Avelar says about owner Murphy. “I love it. He’s always encouraged it.” For the Murphy’s chain, creating ties with the community is a big benefit. At the Sunny Brae store, Avelar is continually connecting with folks he coached when they were kids, and often ends up coaching their children. “The relationship you have with people is great. You get to see them grow up and become family members,” he says. “It’s always a nice satisfaction.” Both Murphy’s teams sent a majority of their players to post-season All Stars. And most of Avelar’s McKinleyville team, which boasted a 24-3 record in 2014, will be back to bat in 2015. Like the stores, the team knows how to reach success. “We have a great overall team strategy,” Avelar says.
