that the Journal endeavored to bring me well-balanced articles about issues affecting the North Coast. But now that I actually have extensive knowledge of the subject in question, I sadly realize my belief has been misplaced. While Heidi Walters quoted extensively from people in the pro-GMO camp, she didn’t bother to contact or even utter the names of three reputable scientists (Ray Seidler, Michael Hansen and Ignacio Chapela) who expressed well-founded concerns about the technology. She could have informed her audience that Dr. Seidler, a former EPA scientist, is deeply concerned about the environmental impacts resulting from GMO technologies; that Dr. Hansen, a senior scientist with Consumers Union (the producer of Consumer Reports) is a consumer watchdog who is in demand worldwide to speak on this issue; that Dr. Ignacio Chapela, a microbial ecologist at U.C. Berkeley, was involved in the disturbing discovery that heritage corn in remote areas of Mexico was contaminated by GMOs. Instead she only obliquely referred to these topnotch people by publishing a quote characterizing them as “outlier scientists who dissent from the mainstream scientific consensus.” These scientists took the time to come to Humboldt to educate and to inform our community that we are part of an international debate on one of the serious issues of our time. I highly recommend you go to www.humboldtaccess.net and see what they had to say. Humboldt now has the opportunity to opt out of an uncontrolled experiment, enhance our food sovereignty and support sustainable farming. Our robust agricultural sector, largely organic, is well positioned to take advantage of a rapidly growing niche market. Let’s vote in our own economic interests and say yes to Measure P.

Editor: For the last 15+ years, I had daily physical pain, swelling in the body, arthritis, went from healthy to pre-diabetic. Two years ago, as our GMO awareness increased, we moved to Humboldt to be closer to likeminded folks (and for other reasons, including culture, weather, etc.). Since I stopped eating GMO foods, and went organic, my body pain is gone, I can hike miles at a time with no pain, I now exercise daily with no pain. I have a phenomenal amount of energy that I’ve lacked for years. It comes down to this: Should anyone have the “option” of being able to legally poison my food? No. Brent Sherman, Fortuna

Limitless

Editor: While Ryan Emenaker’s editorial (“A False Sense Of Reform,” Oct. 2) was informative and interesting, if a bit dry, it fails to address the critical issue of campaign spending limits. As I have pointed out in a previous letter to the Journal, campaign contribution limits can be fudged in a variety of ways. It is not uncommon for a large company to make a contribution of $1,500 in the company’s name and then the V.P. of said company gives $1,000 in her name and so forth. A single business interest can often give a total far higher than $1,500 and nothing can be done “Genetically engineered crops could to stop that.

Questions swirl in wake of EPD shooting By Thadeus Greenson

EUREKA POLICE CHIEF ANDY MILLS DURING AN OCT. 1 PRESS CONFERENCE TO DISCUSS THE DEATH OF THOMAS "TOMMY" MCCLAIN. PHOTO BY MARK MCKENNA

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

t’s been more than three weeks since police shot and killed 22-year-old Thomas “Tommy” McClain on the front lawn of his Eureka home and the questions keep coming: What was McClain doing with a very real looking BB gun? Why would he reach for it when being held at gunpoint by the cops? Could police have done something differently? Did they have to kill him? Eureka Police Chief Andy Mills gave the public its first real glimpse of what happened that night during an Oct. 1 press conference. Over the course of about 30 minutes, Mills walked local reporters through the facts turned up by an ongoing EPD-led, multi-agency investigation. For a detailed rundown of Mills’ press conference, visit www.northcoastjournal.com., but the basics are that on Sept. 17, police were in the area of the Allard Avenue duplex McClain shared with his cousin, his cousin’s wife and their kids, searching for a wanted fugitive who was believed to be armed and dangerous and staying in the duplex neighboring McClain’s. Two officers were keeping watch from the cemetery across the street, officer Stephen Linfoot was circling the neighborhood in his black and white marked patrol car and Sgt. Brian Stephens was stationed nearby, coordinating the effort. Officers say they saw McClain angrily confront a man in front of his house, accusing him of selling drugs in the neighborhood. The cops suspected McClain might have a gun, so Stephens instructed Linfoot to drive by, hoping a visible police presence would make McClain retreat back inside. Instead, after Linfoot’s patrol car passed, officers say they saw McClain pull a gun from his waistband and cycle it, an action that pulls a bullet into the chamber and renders a semi-automatic pistol ready to fire. Stephens, fearing an imminent armed exchange between McClain and the other man, then decided to confront McClain. He pulled up in his patrol car, illuminated McClain with his vehicle’s spotlight and held him at gunpoint. Meanwhile, Linfoot converged on the scene and set up to Mc-

Clain’s right, also pulling his handgun and keeping it trained on the suspect. Initially compliant, police say McClain raised his hands, which pulled his shirt up and left the gun on his waistband clearly visible. According to Mills, Stephens said, “I see the gun. Don’t touch it or I will shoot.” McClain then lowered his hands, ultimately bringing one down to the gun. Seeing this, Linfoot opened fire. Stephens also readied to fire, Mills said, but McClain was falling to the ground by the time he was in Stephens’ sights and the sergeant had his finger on the trigger. The entire interaction lasted about a minute, Mills said, with the shooting itself over in two seconds. There’s no video footage of the complete incident, and police say no civilian witnesses saw it in its entirety. A pair of qualified expert witnesses on police use of force interviewed by the Journal offered differing views on the shooting. Richard Lichten, a former lieutenant with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, declined to comment specifically on McClain’s case, but briefed on the basic underlying facts said it sounds like officers acted appropriately. “It’s irrelevant that (the gun) turns out to be fake,” Lichten said. “It looks real. The objective evidence is that the man is reaching for a weapon. … What do you expect an officer to do?” That’s fair, said Robert Feliciano, a former training sergeant with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, but doesn’t really get to the heart of the matter. “It’s a bad shooting, period,” Feliciano said. “But is it a justifiable shooting? The answer is probably yes. … But the word is causation. What caused the incident?” During his press conference, Mills said the community is now dissecting — in the light of day and the comfort of homes and offices — the decisions officers made in seconds that night. But Feliciano said it didn’t really have to be that way. Maybe they could have taken a wait-and-see approach? When they decided to approach him, maybe Stephens — a former SWAT officer — could have come up with a

more tactical plan. “We have more time than that,” Feliciano said. “Take cover. Use your verbal commands. … They created this incident. I’m not saying it was with malice, but (the police) saw something, they took action and what they thought they saw isn’t really what they saw. They saw a kid with a BB gun, and a kid with a BB gun who broke no laws is now dead.” Lichten disagreed, saying that, given the circumstances, officers understandably felt they needed to intervene to prevent a potentially violent interaction. And, after all, Lichten added, “If the guy would have done what he was told and laid down, we wouldn’t be having this conversation.” So why didn’t Tommy McClain lie down? Who would reach for an unloaded BB gun in the face of real weapons and men trained to use them? Why’d McClain even have the BB gun in the first place? Feliciano said the situation doesn’t make any sense. There’s the well-established phenomenon known as “suicide by cop,” where a desperate individual forces an interaction with police, but McClain doesn’t fit that paradigm, with his Facebooking moments before the shooting, his chance encounter with police and no indications of depression or a life in crisis. Given the facts available, it’s possible McClain — whose boss described him as a good, hardworking employee of a local roofing company — was frustrated that he and his nieces were living next to a property Mills described as a “flop house,” a place where dangerous people were known to frequent and that was well on the radar of Eureka’s Problem Oriented Policing Team. Maybe he picked up a real-looking BB gun hoping it would scare off thugs and drug dealers and buy his family a little space. Maybe it helped embolden him to confront people he felt were doing unsavory things in his neighborhood. Or, maybe he was just a 22-year-old prone to bad choices? But neither of those explain why he’d reach for the gun in front of police. McClain had a hearing disability and had reportedly been out drinking prior to the shooting. Is it possible he misunderstood

officer’s orders? The Journal attempted to reach out to Mills the day after the press conference to clarify if any officer other than Stephens was issuing commands and if anyone on scene may have told McClain to “drop the gun,” but Mills declined to comment, saying the department wouldn’t be commenting further until the investigation reveals additional information. During the press conference, Mills said an autopsy revealed that one of Linfoot’s shots hit McClain in the outer arm, piercing his bicep, passing through and hitting him in the chest. This, Mills said, “demonstrates that the arm could not have been in the air” when McClain was shot. But, that’s far from conclusive evidence that McClain was reaching for the gun as there’s no telling which of Linfoot’s seven bullets caused that damage. Humboldt County Deputy Coroner Roy Horton said a forensic pathologist has yet to determine a sequence of shots in the case, meaning it’s possible McClain had already been shot — or was reacting to one of Linfoot’s errant shots — when the bullet struck his arm. One thing both experts agree on is that once an officer makes the decision to fire his weapon, the intent is and has to be to stop the threat. “We don’t train to wing somebody,” said Feliciano. “It’s not like the movies where you shoot the gun out of his hand and crap like that. Body mass is where we shoot, and you shoot body mass and there’s going to be critical wounds.” Feliciano said a frustrating part of officer-involved shooting fatalities is that they rarely leave behind a full story, as the suspect is deceased and cops — with incredibly high stakes — are taught culturally and systemically not to admit their mistakes. “Sometimes you make a bad decision, but you can’t admit it or even admit that you regret it,” he said. “We’re all humans and humans make mistakes. But if you make a mistake at 1,100 or 1,200 feet per second and the mistake is seven times compounded, you’ll never really know what happened that day other than that you have a 22-year-old kid dead and we only have part of the story.” ●

Checking Out By Grant Scott-Goforth grant@northcoastjournal.com

hen Santa Rosa resident Gabriel Bronsztein checked his credit card statement recently, he was shocked. There, next to the listing from Arcata’s Hampton Inn & Suites, was a nearly $500 charge from his one-night September stay the week prior. The hotel had charged him a $300 cleaning fee because his room smelled like pot. “What happened was … I checked in at 12:30 at night,” Bronsztein said over the phone recently. “I left at 10 a.m. Before I left, I rolled a couple of joints in my room — I’m a medical patient. And then I walked out.” He insists he didn’t smoke in the room — “I don’t even smoke in my house” — and when he called the hotel to complain about the charge, insisting that he didn’t break the hotel’s nonsmoking policy, he

was told “customers complained and we couldn’t rent that room out so we’re charging you,” he said, adding that the hotel staff told him, “we’re not 215 friendly.” The whole thing has left a bad taste in his mouth. “You can’t tell me that I can’t have my medicine,” he said. “They said it was illegal and that I’m not allowed to have it there.” Dale Gieringer, executive director of the California branch of the National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws (NORML), says hotels and marijuana users have a long history of disagreement, but said that almost always stems from smoking pot in the room. “It’s a routine issue, when we book conferences, to find a hotel that’s somewhat tolerant,” Gieringer said. “It’s become quite difficult to find such hotels. It’s more difficult than it was 20 years ago —

the anti-smoking rules have gotten very stringent. It’s been more of an anti-smoking issue than anything else.” While it’s legal for 215 patients to possess marijuana there’s no doubt that it’s more odorously intrusive — even in its inert state — than other types of medicine. “If the room smells of marijuana — or for that matter anything else — and they want to rent it to another guest, I can see why [the hotel would] be upset if any guest leaves an objectionable smell,” Gieringer said. Gieringer was unaware of the circumstances, but pondered that in order to leave a noticeable smell from unburned pot, “I would think that he would have to have quite a bit of marijuana in the room.” Bronzstein thinks the charge is ridiculous, and, taking him at his word — that he didn’t smoke in the hotel — he makes a point. “You have a microwave in your

room. If someone cooks popcorn in there you’re going to have more of a smell than what I did. … They didn’t spend $300 to clean that room — they just opened the door and let it air out.” The hotel declined to comment on the incident, and Bronzstein said the Hilton corporate offices told him hotel policies are determined by the individual properties. The Arcata hotel’s website makes no mention of a 215 policy. Bronzstein has disputed the charge through his credit card company. State marijuana laws allow 215 patients to smoke outdoors where it isn’t prohibited — though NORML says “patients are advised to be discreet or consume oral preparations in public.” If you’re a traveling smoker, maybe leave the stinky stuff in your car. ●

Stand Down Portraits of veterans Photos by Alexander Woodard Reporting by Heidi Walters

o “stand down” in combat is to take a recuperative break from the action. Events such as the North Coast Stand Down, held Oct. 3 through Oct. 5 at the Humboldt County Fairgrounds, offer respite and help for veterans engaged in the battles of civilian life: coping with service-related trauma, homelessness, joblessness and more. The first Stand Down was held in San Diego in 1988. Humboldt County held its first event in 2005. This year’s was the 10th, and largest, of the local nonprofit events, with 234 volunteers, tens of thousands of dollars in donations and 45 service providers. Between Friday, Saturday and Sunday, 420 veterans — 35 of them homeless — and their families mingled with other veterans, ate meals, picked up clothes, got haircuts and massages, took showers, had their eyes checked and their teeth cleaned, underwent medical screenings, received spiritual counseling, and sought assistance with employment, housing, negotiating Veterans Administration benefits, and other needs. Their dogs were groomed and cared for. In the evenings, bands entertained them. About 55 people, including some kids, stayed overnight on cots, and on Sunday the homeless vets gathered donated gear — sleeping bags, cooking equipment, clothing — and headed back into the fray. The Journal attended Friday’s event to meet some of our community’s veterans and ask them what they need. Here is what we found.

Grobey, who lives in Arcata and is a member of the Mad River Honor Guard, came to Stand Down to take part in the flag-raising ceremony. “To me, it’s an honor and a privilege to work with people who went through that hell [of war]. I find it a satisfying way to continue my service.”

Ed Castillo, 56, grew up in San Jose and joined the Army in 1975 and served three years stationed in Germany. He attends Stand Down every year with his wife and kids. Castillo said he attended because he was leaving Oct. 5 for San Francisco, where he enrolled in a three-month post traumatic stress program. Castillo lives in Eureka. “I’m looking for some residential help. I’m looking for clothing. For some referrals to some legal matters and for some educational matters. … It’s so good to see other veterans here.”

Daniel O’Leary, 63, grew up in Minnesota and joined the Navy in 1973, serving for four years and conducting six patrols on the 641 Blue Crew aboard the nuclear submarine USS Simon Bolivar. He came to Stand Down to see what amenities were available, and “to communicate with people, for the encouragement of others, to sympathize with others.” O’Leary lives in Manila. He said he needs a “support group, an outside assessment, an evaluation of your ability to contribute to society.”

Emma Derry, 65, grew up in Portsmouth, Virginia, and entered the Army in 1970, serving three years stationed in Alabama’s Fort McClellan and Massachusetts’ Fort Devens. Now living in McKinleyville, Derry said she attended Stand Down to get help. “I have PTSD and ADHD. I suffered military sexual trauma at Fort Devens. And in basic training in Alabama I was exposed to Agent Orange that was made in a chemical plant nearby in Anniston. It got in our water, it got in our food. … I just received 100 percent disability.” “I wish I didn’t have to suffer with what I have now. My teeth are breaking off. I have balance problems. I get these rashes. I swell up. … I’m getting my blood pressure done, eye tests, help with paperwork. And Reiki massage. It’s the craziest thing: This man doing the massage said, ‘Do you know your body stores everything that happens to you? All the trauma?’”

He can get a tuition waiver because I’m a disabled veteran hurt in the line of duty. That was in 1993.

Linda looks in on Al, a long time Wildlife Ambassador.

One of Linda’s many wildlife paintings.

Carson the Peregrine Falcon enjoys a bit of time outdoors.

Murphy’s Salutes HWCC’S Education Team Most Humboldt, Trinity and Del Norte County residents know to call the Humboldt Wildlife Care Center (HWCC) hotline if they ﬁnd an injured wild animal. Located in Bayside, the center works to rehabilitate wounded and orphaned wildlife and return them to their native habitats. Sometimes, injuries are too extensive for these animals to survive on their own. When this is the case, these animals often become “Wildlife Ambassadors” and have the opportunity to join an Education Team, either here on the North Coast or at one of many wildlife centers in a nationwide network, who care for non-releasable animals. Made up of a dozen volunteers ranging from Humboldt State University grad students to elementary age kids, the Ed Team plays a vital role in the HWCC. Ed Team members work on fundraising projects, feed and exercise the birds, clean out cages and host education programs. The mission of these education programs is to “Promote an expanded awareness of nature, an enhanced

understanding of local ecosystems and an ethic of responsibility toward our shared world.” Local artist and dedicated wildlife enthusiast Linda Parkinson recently took over as HWCC’s Ed Team Director. Linda ﬁrst got involved with the HWCC while studying wildlife diseases in graduate school at HSU. She was working as a vet tech and a friend handed her a kestrel. “That was it,” she says, “I got sucked in.” In the years since, Linda has served as both vice president and president of the HWCC board of directors. Her new role as Ed Team Director is a challenge, but she loves it. “Sometimes we do two or three programs per week – or about 75-100 per year,” Linda explains. “The money raised augments the HWCC’s coffers so we can afford to feed these guys.” She nods toward the nearby raptor enclosures. “It costs about $1,600 a year to feed them.” Linda is referring to the HWCC Ed Team Wildlife Ambassadors, a collection of raptors comprising a Western Screech Owl, a Great Horned Owl, a Northern Spotted Owl, a Red

Tailed Hawk and a Peregrine Falcon. Parkinson says, in time, she would like to expand the range of education animals, but the permits from the state are very expensive, as is taking on another critter to feed and house. For now, volunteers are focused on raising funds to move the bird enclosures to Linda’s 20-acre property in Glendale. Linda estimates they’ll need between $4-6,000 for the transition. The education birds are currently housed at former Ed Team Director Merry Maloney’s property in Blue Lake. There are many ways community members can support the HWCC’s efforts. Stop by your local Murphy’s Market to pick up an HWCC chocolate bar or a few bottles of Lost Coast Brewery’s Windshield Owl Pale Ale (100 percent of the proceeds go to HWCC) and be sure to drop a few coins in a HWCC donation jar at the checkout. Or you can book an education program, check out the wish list on their website or donate through the Guardians of Ch’Hooly legacy society. Learn about more ways to contribute at: www.humwild.org.

Lynn McCracken, 59, grew up in Santa Maria, California, and joined the Marines in 1974, serving five years stationed at South Carolina’s Parris Island and North Carolina’s Camp Lejeune. McCracken, who now lives in Fortuna, said she came to Stand Down mainly to “hang out with other veterans” and thank them for their service. “There’s a lot of things I need. I got a Bible for my grandbabies. And I try to keep on top of the services available to veterans. I like the Reiki; I’ve had my neck fused — C1, C2 and C3. … What I would love to see is the Veterans Administration come up with preventative medicine. Instead of narcotics for pain, why can’t we have massage? Because, oh my God, it costs so much.”

Tonja Engel, 62, grew up in Santa Maria, California, and entered the Navy in 1972, serving nine years stationed in Japan, Hawaii, Italy, Iceland, the Philippines and Washington, D.C. Now homeless in Roseburg, Oregon, living in a women’s mission, Engel attended Stand Down with her sister (Lynn McCracken, of Fortuna) to find out about services for homeless veterans. “I need affordable housing. And information on employment. … As we age, there aren’t a lot of jobs available. I have disability from the Veterans Administration, and I’m grateful for the health care. … That’s the thing about the military: You get hurt even in times of peace. You don’t have to be in a war zone.” ●

Erin Reed, owner of Jack’s Hand Cleaner, says she came to Humboldt to see if it was a place she could plant her roots. Not only did those roots get planted, but Reed even developed one of the most beloved Humboldt products — Jack’s Hand Cleaner, an organic hand scrub designed to cut through resin and dirt. Popular with trimmers, especially this time of the year, the scrub is also wonderful for all farmers, gardeners, mechanics and carpenters. Available in both lemon scent and eucalyptus, the natural ingredients and oils nourish the skin while they clean and, according to Reed, the eucalyptus makes a perfect summertime body scrub. Over the past six years, Jack’s Hand Cleaner has grown to be in over 50 retail stores in Humboldt, 40 counties in California and is available coast to coast across the US.

“MARSH HIGH,” SHOT FROM THE AIR BY ELLEN LAND-WEBER.

pull-out A RT sect i on

sewage treatment facility from a vantage point few get to see. There is something about the familiarity of one perspective that makes you want to see that same thing from another vantage. “Why does everybody want to look at their own house from Google Earth?” asks Land-Weber. Her new show replaces our earth-bound views of the marsh with photographs that present it in a distinctly holistic manner. These images, while recognizable, become abstract slices that let the landscape spread out before the viewer. Human manipulations merge with the natural world, forcing us to view the marsh in a new context. From the sky, foreground and background perspectives disappear, lending an abstract quality to Land-Weber’s work. In her photos, our influence on the natural world seems puny, almost comic. And yet, this managed landscape that transforms human waste into seawater, revealing map-like patterns of human influence, also hosts more than 300 species of birds. “What’s natural about nature?” LandWeber asks. Her photos seek an unlikely answer — that we may have crossed a boundary into which natural and humancrafted landscapes overlap. During our hour-long flight, Land-Weber took more than 600 photographs, of which only a few will be published. The bouncy ride, window glare and continually shifting vistas challenge her to find shots that art. Marshall, an information technology reflect off-the-cuff reactions rather than specialist, worked closely with Land-Weber carefully controlled compositions. “You to create classrooms that met her needs. just work with your limitations,” she says. “I More than a decade later, Land-Weber was taught that in photography.” has relinquished her emphasis on specific At 1,000 feet, species to exLand-Weber’s plore the marsh quick glimpses at as an entity in Arcata’s attempts itself; a biological to treat sewage unit composed become omens. of human and Her marsh images natural forces.

Bird’s Eye on the Marsh Ellen Land-Weber takes to the sky By Ken Weiderman artbeat@northcoastjournal.com

“

e’ll stop at 1,000 feet and circle right,” says pilot David Marshall as we lift off from Murray Field. “There might be a little bit of turbu-

lence.” I’m in the back of a small, four-seater aircraft watching Ellen Land-Weber at work on her newest series of photographs. Clad in blue jeans and a pink V-neck sweater, she shifts, aiming her camera at the receding terrain. Late-morning sunlight bounces about the tiny cabin as we gain altitude. Humboldt Bay slips away under our roaring propeller. “Go a little bit more toward the ocean,” says Land-Weber, directing our passage through the sky. “Oh! This is nice,” she shouts through scratchy headphones. Over the Arcata Marsh, we bank hard, traveling roughly 175 miles per hour, while she aims her Nikon D5100 toward the patches of green and blue below us. After a few circles we zoom up to Big Lagoon, following the coast and rotating again over river estuaries and other notable water features. A half-hour before this flight we were in Land-Weber’s Fickle Hill home discussing the aerial photos she’s taken of the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary. Leaning forward in a leather armchair, Land-Weber draws up her glasses to point out distinc-

tive aspects of the marsh landscape. “You can photograph the same thing over and over again because the light’s changing, the season’s changing. The algae comes and goes and changes colors,” she says with a hint of wonder. “Every time it’s different.” Land-Weber, an emeritus professor of art at Humboldt State University, has photographed the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary since the early 1990s. Among other subjects, a dominant focus in her artistic work has been our human relationship to water, especially the waters of the North Coast. As her understanding of the Arcata Marsh unfolded, Land-Weber struggled with her comprehensive views of the flat landscape. Her camera could only capture simple vistas of this complex biome. Not one to settle, she utilized new digital technologies to create photographic collages that revealed the complexities of life in the marsh. With the powers of Photoshop, she could combine various viewpoints to illustrate the multifaceted life forms present there. In the early 2000s, Land-Weber was a pioneer of digital photography. To teach digital arts at HSU, she had to work with the science department to find computer classrooms that could handle the editing software needed to produce professional

capture bird’s eye views of Arcata Marsh. “He just calls me,” she says, smiling, “and says ‘Do you want to fly?’ And I have to be there in five minutes.” Land-Weber’s new show focuses on the photos she’s taken above the marsh. Her collages of microscopic plant structures have ballooned into aerial images of the

Ellen Land-Weber’s show, “The Arcata Marsh if You Were a Bird,” will run through October at the Marsh Interpretive Center on South G St. in Arcata. There will be a closing party and reception on Friday, Oct. 31, where participants are encouraged to come dressed as their favorite Marsh animal.

y English husband has a love of sausages that I will never fully understand. Same with potatoes: roast potatoes, mashed potatoes, jacket potatoes, potatoes au gratin, new potatoes, potato cakes. Pretty sure Jon would divorce me and marry a potato, given half a chance. Raised in Arcata on a steady diet of tofu, brown rice and mung bean sprouts, I had no clue what I was up against when I married into the delights and oleaginous horrors of British cuisine. It has not been without its challenges. Black pudding? Just no. Our pantry is filled with quirky UK staples like PG Tips, Weetabix, Marmite, Golden Syrup, HP Sauce and pickled onions. We routinely feast upon kippers, toast soldiers, parsnips roasted to within an inch of their lives and peas — lots of frozen peas. The Christmas pudding situation is particularly worrisome. Every December, my mother-in-law dispatches across the globe a dense, prepared-a-year-ago-andleft-to-sit Christmas pudding via FedEx. Following the holiday meal, with paper hat cocked on his head and cracker wrappings all over the floor, Jon joyously douses the

festive pudding in brandy and sets it on fire. It gives him gas. The children and I don’t eat it. Back to the sausages. Those of which I speak are not the glistening, wispy American breakfast sausage. We’re talking bangers — big, fat, bready British bangers. Nary a week goes by without a banger showing up on our plates. Jon wraps them in bread with lashings of mayonnaise for a quick meal, or slices them and slings them into a creamy pasta sauce with bacon and leeks. He’ll nestle them alongside lamb chops, or include them in a classic English breakfast with fried bread, fried egg, fried bacon, fried mushrooms and fried tomatoes. Toad in the Hole is a favorite banger incarnation. Only when bathed in Yorkshire pudding batter and stuffed in a gloriously hot oven does a banger become a toad. The meal is completed with a generous pile of frozen peas awash in cheese sauce. Ideally, the cheese sauce should be unleashed on the toad batter as well, but not enough to ruin its crispy exterior. I dare you to tuck into this classic British meal. It is not gluten free. Nor is it low fat. It’s probably not organic, and it definitely isn’t light on carbs. But I have to admit, it’s really very good.

Prepare the batter by putting eggs, flour, milk, pepper and a pinch or two of salt into a medium bowl. Using your electric mixer, blend until all dry ingredients are incorporated and the mixture is nicely aerated. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 375 F. Smear the vegetable oil onto a 9-by-11-inch baking dish. Distribute the bangers evenly in the dish and place on the upper shelf of the oven, leaving at least 3 inches of clearance for the batter to rise. Bake it for 10 to 15 minutes, turning once so the bangers brown evenly. Increase the heat to 450 F. Leave the bangers in for an additional 5 to 7 minutes. At this point, get ready to move fast and try to keep the oven as hot as possible throughout these next steps. A hot oven is the key to a successful toad. Quickly remove the oven dish and close the oven door. Immediately pour the batter over the bangers and return them to the oven. Cook the batter 10 to 15 minutes more, then reduce the heat to 400 F and bake for another 10 minutes. At this point, take a very quick peek into the oven to determine readiness. For a gooier batter, cook for less time; for a crispy batter, cook for longer. The toad is done when risen all over and golden brown on top. When ready, remove it from the oven and serve immediately, as the batter will begin to deflate as soon as it leaves the oven. Feeds four.

Peas in Cheese Sauce Ingredients and method: 1 pound bag frozen petite peas 4 cups grated sharp cheddar cheese 1 ½ cups whole milk Salt and pepper to taste Corn starch to thicken Pour boiling water over the peas in a saucepan and return to a boil. The peas are fully cooked when they float to the surface, which should take about 2 minutes. In another saucepan, pour the milk over the grated cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste. Stir over medium heat until the cheese melts. Make a slurry with a few teaspoons of corn starch in a couple of tablespoons of cold water. When the cheese is melted and piping hot, add the slurry a little at a time, stirring constantly to thicken. Add the cooked peas and serve immediately alongside the toad. l

They’re Creepy and They’re Kooky The Addams Family is spooky fun at Ferndale Rep By Kate Haley

frontrow@northcoastjournal.com

ome things go together so naturally we don’t even question: cookies and milk or peanut butter and anything. Then there are combos that seem a mite odd at first, but ultimately prove delightful: chicken and waffles. I would place The Addams Family musical firmly in the second category. As someone who grew up on both the classic TV show and the movies,

I admit I had my doubts about how the franchise would translate to the stage. How does a cast of necessarily dark and creepy characters mash up with a catchy modern musical? The answer is, at least for the production currently running at Ferndale Repertory Theatre, remarkably well. The musical, with music and lyrics by Andrew Lippa and book by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, manages to stay true to the original characters while engaging them in relatable circumstances. What would happen if dear, dark Wednesday

Addams managed to fall in love with a completely normal boy? Why, she’d invite him and his parents over for supper to meet the family, of course. Hilarity ensues. Whether you are a fan of The Addams Family (the show, the movies or Charles Addams’ original cartoons) or romantic comedies in general there is plenty to enjoy. Uncle Fester takes on the role of narrator, guiding the action and providing his own comic interludes. The music is surprisingly upbeat and catchy. I think this is the second morning I’ve woken up with the second act number “Crazier Than You” stuck in my head. There are also a few sweetly poignant songs, specifically Pugsley’s “What If?” (sung well in this production by Aiden Vergen) and Gomez’s “Happy/Sad.” At over two hours, the production may be a bit long for younger viewers, however the humor is broad enough to appeal to all ages and it makes for a good family outing. This production is notable for having consistently strong vocal performances from everyone, although a number of performers certainly stand out. Christopher Moreno has created a wholly charming Gomez. His accent work is especially good, and he maintains it even throughout his musical numbers. Shaelan Salas-Rich also shines as Alice Beineke, the mother of Wednesday’s beau. Hats off as well to Jaison Chand in his portrayal of Lurch — he deftly handles the challenge of creating a character who doesn’t speak — and to Dimitry Tokarsky, who embodies Uncle Fester so naturally that he could have walked off the TV screen. Reen K. Savage, who plays Wednesday, feels a bit mature for the role, however it gives her a great opportunity to show off her vocal prowess. Jessi Sheiman is a reserved Morticia, fulfilling her role as the dominant matriarch and straight man. Kudos are also due to the members of the ensemble, a host of ghosts who enrich the stage without drawing away focus from the main action of the story. The ghostly costumes are particularly nice as the characters are

distinct despite being monochromatic. There is no live orchestra for this show, which I would normally miss, but the music still provides a rich sound that keeps the mood lively. The set does an efficient job of recreating the creepy and kooky world of the Addamses without crowding the stage. If anything, there are a number of fantastic set pieces and props that you might like to see used more. Overall, Ferndale Rep has managed to craft a fun and funny show that is worth taking in. The theater is now under the leadership of new producing director Leira Satlof; if this production is any indication, I look forward to seeing what the rest of the 2014-2015 season has to offer. Ferndale Repertory’s The Addams Family is artistically and musically directed by Dianne Zuleger. Dillon Savage provided support as assistant director. Choreography is by Linda Maxwell. The set is designed by Ray Gutierrez and costume designs are by Laura Rhinehart. The production runs through Oct. 26 with performances Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. A fun note: FRT is advertising an audience costume contest for the duration of the run. Come dressed as your favorite Addams for a chance to win a season ticket during the intermission of each performance. $18, $16 for students and seniors. 786-5483.

Upcoming

More creepiness is on the way. Coraline, the eerie young adult novella from Neil Gaiman (he of the post-goth cult following), creeps into the Van Duzer Theatre on Oct. 16 and runs Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays through Oct. 25 under the direction of Rae Robison. The young Coraline stumbles upon a seductive but sinister alternative version of her world and her family. This musical adaptation may be a bit much for younger children. Tickets from the Humboldt State University ticket office or at the door. $12-$17, $10-$15 students and seniors. 826-3928. l

Musical Underground Tunes born in the tubes, streets and garages By Jennifer Savage

ow about that Arts Alive!? They tend to be well-attended, those events, but October’s was off the charts, partly due, no doubt, to the Santa Barbara-like weather, but also to the high number of particularly beckoning shows. One of the best parts, as always, was the constant musical accompaniment along the streets. Buskers mostly always make me happy, the exception being some dude playing an electric guitar badly on the corner of Ninth and H in Arcata years ago. I realize not everyone enjoys the random influx of sound into their brain, but something about people having the verve to take their music to the streets pleases me — and I’m not the only one to recognize that from such beginnings genius sometimes leaps.

Friday: Eureka in Eureka, reggae in SoHum

Remember last time Eureka, California played the Lil’ Red Lion Cocktail Lounge? No, you most likely do not. I know this because I was there and, given how few other people were, odds are you weren’t among the non-crowd. (Journal Calendar Editor Dev Richards, however, was also in attendance, yeah!) Fortunately, Friday night offers you a chance for a do-over when the Athens, Georgia, band returns, along with local darlings The Lost Luvs, Nashville’s Cris Crofton and the Alcohol Stunt Band (with local Nick Davis) and Oakland’s Bam! Bam! Expect an evening of good-time, poppy-punk irreverence. Four bands for only $5! Things start promptly at 9 p.m., we’re told, and this show is 21-and-over. Down in SoHum, a triple bill of island reggae fills the Mateel This week, for Community Center as example, Moon Hooch part of J Boog’s Run comes to us after Em Hard Tour, which getting started on features Samoan reggae New York City subway superstar J Boog along platforms.

WHERE: Arcata Playhouse TICKETS: $15

to describe itself, but “a jazz-oriented tragic piano pop band with ironic tendencies” is not only a new addition to my wacky genre catalogue, but also a spot-on description of Scuber Mountain, a project involving electric jazzers Aber Miller and Drew Mohr joined by John Daren Thomas and Kym Scafe. Miller tells the story of Scuber Mountain’s creation in a charming Facebook post that begins, “Normally I keep my posts facetious or despondently angry, but I’m going to write one in earnest.” He goes on to reminiscence about a band he founded in high school, an ironic piano-pop band, and how the experience would later influence his Humboldt State University studies. “We had a good dramatic high-school-band breakup and I moved to Arcata, California to study biology,” Miller writes. “Within two weeks of starting classes, I changed my major to music because that silly trio was the most fun I had ever had.” He long dreamed of recreating that band and after a false start, managed to do it after Scafe — part of the original trio — announced she was moving out to California. It’s a very sweet story culminating in a release party for the band’s debut Return to Scuber Mountain. The third member of that life-changing high school band, Braden Young, will make a special appearance on guitar — Miller really is putting the band back together. Doors at the Arcata Playhouse at 7 p.m. and the $15 cover gets you a copy of the CD. On the reunion tip, note that over at the Alibi, Ellis Wallace and Gregg Dix return as “graujrawk”-ers Shores Galore, along with psych-surf four-piece The Mother Vines. Usual Alibi details: $5, 11 p.m., 21-and-over. Should be loud and pleasure-inducing.

Monday: The new Saturday?

It’s not unusual for Humboldt to host Big Artists during the week given that we exist as a stop-between-stops on the tour routes. This Monday, however, is a bit ridiculous with opportunity. You’ve got the brilliant and one-of-akind sextet OU delivering a Mediterranean joyride to the Arcata Playhouse with folk jazz, fiercely funky rhythms and lush vocals sung in Sardinian, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and English. Doors open at 7:30 p.m., show starts at 8 p.m., tickets are $15 general, $13 members and are available at Wildberries or the Playhouse. And, Pittsburgh-based alternative pop group The Van Allen Belt offers a spacy mix of ’60s-influenced psych-pop at the Palm Lounge, along with the ever-entertaining John Ludington. Cover is $5, show starts at 8 p.m., be 21-or-over.

Tuesday: Pick of the night

One more show to entice you: Humboldt Brews brings you Grant Farm, led by National Flatpicking Champion Tyler Grant. Fans of American roots music, you’ll want to plan your Wednesday morning around this Tuesday night. Doors at 9 p.m., cover is $10, show is 21-and-over.

The Trouble, Squeezebug, Guns and Barrels and Cadillac Ranch are all set to keep you dancing and toe-tapping through the outdoor open-container revelry. Go to www.hoptoberfest.net and scan the schedule for the free shuttle running between Blue Lake, McKinleyville and Arcata before you start sampling the 15 brews on tap. (Lining up sober transportation is part of that “drink responsibly” phrase on all the posters — that and deleting your ex’s number before you go.) Also, leave the dog at home. (You think he’s not judging when you’re tipsy, but he is.) Six Rivers, Humboldt Regeneration, Mad River, Redwood Curtain, Lost Coast, Eel River, Lagunitas, Sierra Nevada, Anderson Valley, New Belgium, Mendocino, Alaskan and Bear Republic breweries are all representing. The whole thing goes to raise money for the Blue Lake Education Foundation, so enjoy a cold one while you invest in our future. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

Reviews

GONE GIRL is one of the best-made movies this year. Its screenplay (which Gillian Flynn adapted from her own juggernaut novel) remains taut, and concise over two and half hours. The convincingly drawn characters are fully realized by a top-notch cast. David Fincher’s (Se7en, The Social Network) direction creates a tense, mesmerizing atmosphere, thanks largely to director of photography Jeff Cronenweth, a frequent collaborator. There isn’t a frame out of place, and its composure and concision projects menace and disarray. Nick Dunne’s (Ben Affleck) wife goes missing on their fifth wedding anniversary. He is a frustrated writer brought back to his Missouri hometown by his mother’s illness and eventual death. His wife, Amy (Rosamund Pike), is a New York society girl who inspired the children’s books that made her parents rich. Flashbacks show their honeymoon period, then the trying early years of marriage. The recession costs them both jobs, and Amy bails out her flailing parents with her trust fund. Real life strains their bond in ways neither imagined. As the search for Amy builds into a cause, events turn public perception against Nick. From the get-go, he’s a suspect in Detective Rhonda Boney’s (Kim Dickens) investigation, but his indignant defense seems legitimate. Despite his adamant denials, evidence stacks up, and eventually Nick is tried in the court of public opinion by national “news” personalities. Then Act II rolls around and the whole story takes on a new life. It’s impossible to say more without wrecking the effect.

Starting from a “ripped from the headlines” missing spouse premise, Gone Girl builds into a unique neo-noir psychodrama. There are pulp elements in the central conceit and execution, but Flynn and Fincher don’t get caught up in it. Instead, they create a vivid, intensely airless world of ambiguity and limited options. The camerawork is full of wide-open compositions and rich light, but to terrifyingly claustrophobic effect. That atmosphere is ripe for nearly perfect acting performances. Affleck finds the humor, horror and frustration in Nick, making it look easy. Dickens is utterly convincing as a detective too smart for her small town, and maybe herself. Tyler Perry does an unexpectedly dynamic turn as Nick’s celebrity defense attorney Tanner Bolt. Neil Patrick Harris, as Amy’s damaged ex Desi, plumbs the depths and comes up with an ideal combination of smugness, insecurity and pathos. The most enjoyable surprise, though, has to be Pike as Amy. In the past, I’ve dismissed her as vacant and acting at one remove from the emotions at continued on next page Oct. 9 Oct. 15

hand. Here, she gives a dark, layered, memorable performance as a troubled woman with a lot going on below the surface. Gone Girl is probably a perfect movie in terms of its mission. The story is original and fully fleshed-out, the technical and visual aspects of the filmmaking are stunning without being showy and the ensemble acting is nearly flawless. In spite of Fincher’s fastidiousness and control, the movie doesn’t feel overly composed or antiseptic. It’s big and streamlined, but messy when it needs to be, as in the short, jarring, hypnotic scene late in the movie upon which the whole thing turns. Gone Girl is an heir to Alfred Hitchcock’s legacy — an engaging, entertaining thriller unique to its place and time, but timeless. It may not hold, for me, the silly, visceral thrill of Fincher’s Fight Club or Se7en, but it is a more complex, evolved kind of a movie. Even if I don’t need to see it annually, it will stay with me (particularly the scene referenced above; you’ll know it when you see it). R. 149m. ANNABELLE, on the other hand, I consider a throwaway. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoyed The Conjuring, to which this is a prequel, and Rosemary’s Baby, from which this draws most of its design and pacing. But I’d rather watch either of those any day. In brief, a young husband gives his pregnant wife a demonic doll. They are coincidentally attacked by Manson-Family-style Satanists. Then they are haunted by the doll. The few cheap scares are founded on stabs of string music, slamming doors and the like, and it lacks the atmosphere and emotion that made The Conjuring so effective. R. 98m. — John J. Bennett LEFT BEHIND. As an un-ironic Nicolas Cage-ophile, I admit to enjoying the twisting of peoples’ faces when I proselytize for St. Nic. He’s moving or manically menacing or both in some of my favorite movies. And then there’s Left Behind. Heavy-handed neo-Christianity neuters any tension in this re-boot of a Kirk Cameron movie based on a popular YA novel series, but it’s incongruous, as the filmmakers are more interested in featuring an Australian bikini model’s bosom than saying anything meaningful about faith or humanity. Left Behind announces its mission in the opening scene, when a woman’s plea for piety is casually dismissed by young lovers at an airport. Jet-setting investigative reporter Buck Williams (Chad Michael Murray) is instantly taken by outspoken girl-next-door Chloe Steele’s (Cassi Thompson) verbal takedown of the god-fearing stranger. Chloe’s visiting her own devout mother and her pilot father (Cage), who is fed up with his wife’s newfound faith and ditching the family for a weekend in London with a buxom flight attendant. That’s as deep as the characters get. The rest of the film jump cuts between Chloe wandering

through apocalyptic scenes filmed on a repurposed Desperate Housewives set and Captain Steele trying to steer a midAtlantic flight full of panicked passengers to safety. At one point, Cage seems about to break into his fevered insanity, but he shrinks back as if drugged. The acting and special effects in Airplane! are better. Seemingly scored with Casio keyboard samples, the film takes two hours to get to what should have been the opening act, and director Vic Armstrong (known for his stunt work in Indiana Jones movies) is bludgeoningly unsubtle with this selfindulgent and sanctimonious I-told-youso fantasy.

Wilson, a married man, dealing with his separate property Duly Appointed Trustee: Foreclosure Specialists LLC Recorded 11/12/08 as Instrument No. 2008-26427-7 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Humboldt County, California, Date of Sale: Monday, October 20, 2014 at 10:30 AM Place of Sale: On the steps to the front entrance to the County Courthouse, 825 5th Street, Eureka, CA 95501 The common designation of the property is purported to be: 5973 Highway 36, Carlotta, CA 95528 APN: 206-101-057 Estimated opening bid: $333,861.65 Beneficiary may elect to open bidding at a lesser amount. The total amount secured by said instrument as of the time of initial publication of this notice is stated above, which includes the total amount of the unpaid balance (including accrued and unpaid interest) and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of initial publication of this notice. 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 the trustee’s information line at (530) 246-2727 or visit this Internet Web site: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS # 14-2062. 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.

hen Nicolas Copernicus relegated the Earth from the center of the cosmos to one of several planets revolving around the sun, he let the genie out of the bottle. If our planet didn’t sit at the focus of everything, as Copernicus claimed, then maybe humankind wasn’t quite as exalted as the Psalmist had it: “a little lower than the angels.” Four hundred years later, Charles Darwin showed how the relentless thrust of evolution further dilutes our previously self-glorified status. From the apex of the tree of life, he demoted our species to one of millions of twigs on life’s bush, all descended from a single common ancestor. The decentralization process continued with the downgrading of our galaxy, which until a hundred years ago was thought to be the galaxy. The era of big telescopes with their attached spectrographs (which indirectly measure distance) gave rise to the realization that the Milky Way wasn’t unique, but one of a myriad of galaxies, each home to billions of stars. We now know that the observable universe holds more stars than the grains of sand on all of Earth’s beaches. Our demotion doesn’t stop there, according to some contemporary physicists who propose that even our universe isn’t special! “Universe” used to be interpreted literally: “that which is combined into one.” Now speculation runs rife with talk of “multiverses.” Whatever process created our universe, goes this fantastical way of thinking, also created an infinite number of other universes. Far from being a unique creation on a central world, we now find ourselves one of 10 million

extant species on an inconspicuous planet randomly located in perhaps one of a whole slew of universes. And yet ... humans are special. Lacking information to the contrary, we are the only species on Earth that questions its existence. Our planet may not be unique, but it is rare, orbiting in an ideal “Goldilocks” zone between hot and cold, with a large moon for long-term stability. The particular physical parameters of our universe nudge matter into complicated atoms and molecules, including those necessary for life. (The force of gravity, for instance, is neither too weak to allow stars to form in the first place, nor so strong that it would cause stars to burn out too rapidly for biology to happen.) Our timing, too, is perfect, existing as we do in a calm-but-not-too-calm era between the violent birth and the slow “heat death” of our universe. Not to mention — speaking of being special — that you and I are the end points of nearly four billion years of unbroken genetic baton-passing from one generation to the next. So there’s the paradox: On the one hand, any significance to our lives is lost against the background noise of everything else; on the other, here we are, consciousness contemplating the cosmos, against unimaginable statistical odds. You’d think (in the words of the late physician-essayist Lewis Thomas) “the mere fact of existing would keep us all in a contented dazzlement of surprise.” l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) is dazzled to be living in the short span between slow-speed dental drills and any one of the coming catastrophes.
