Kinetic Universe The Kinetic Grand Championship has been a Humboldt staple since 1969 thanks to founder Hobart Brown. Taking place on Memorial Day weekend since the 1980’s, the Kinetic Sculpture Race brings in visitors from all over the world. For those of you that do not know about the Kinetic Sculpture Race, it is a 3-day, 42-mile race over land, sand, mud and water on human-powered art sculptures. What a lot of people don’t know is the long and fabled past of the Kinetic Grand Championship. This is where the Kinetic Museum comes into play. Located at 110 3rd St #G, the Kinetic Museum holds the past, present, and future of the Kinetic Grand Championship. Kati Texas, the 2008 Rutabaga Queen, is the “Queen President” of Kinetic Universe and is one of the proprietors of the Kinetic Museum. With the race coming up on the 23th, the folks at the Museum have been busy. Kati and her team have been displaying Kinetic treasures new and old, while simultaneously setting up events for the weeks that lead up to the race. You can check out the Rutabaga Ball on May 16th or catch the start of the Kinetic Grand Championship on the Arcata Plaza, May 23rd. In order to get the best seats over this 3-day, multi-town event don’t forget to get there early and to get some snacks from your local Murphy’s Market. Murphy’s also carries sunscreen, bottled water, and bug spray for all you hard-core race followers.

“As a co-founder of the Salmon Run, I am for dam removal and against the KBRA. I would feel bad if someone felt they couldn’t participate because of any particular runner or coordinator’s stance on the KBRA.

Homicide by Police

Finding justice in the death of Richard Frederick Tis’Mil Estrada By Tony Platt RICHARD ESTRADA SUBMITTED

everal cases involving police use of deadly force have received widespread scrutiny during the last year: the July 17 strangling death of Eric Garner in Staten Island, New York; the Aug. 9 killing of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri; the April 4 shooting in the back of Walter Scott in North Charleston, South Carolina; and the recent beating death of Freddie Gray in Baltimore. Eyewitness testimonies, video evidence and street protests have made these deaths into a matter of national outrage. But the overwhelming majority of homicides by police happen with minimal and slanted coverage, and inadequate public accountability. Take, for example, the case of a young man killed a few months ago in a remote part of Northern California.

At this point, only one fact has been established: In the middle of the night on Dec. 18, a confrontation took place between 17-year-old Richard Estrada, a member of the Hoopa Valley Tribe, and California Highway Patrol officer Tim Gray in the small town of Willow Creek, about 50 miles east of Eureka. Estrada died on the spot and Gray was injured. What happened, how it happened and what led up to the tragedy is not yet known. According to Melva Paris of the Humboldt County Sheriff’s legal office, the matter is currently under investigation by Sheriff Mike Downey, whose completed report “will be referred to the Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office for review.” In 2011-2012, a coalition of regional law enforcement agencies signed off on a protocol for a Critical Incident Response Team (CIRT), to be initiated when an officer

is involved in the death of a civilian. The goal of CIRT is to make sure such cases are “fully and fairly investigated,” especially when “questions arise about the propriety of a law enforcement agency conducting an investigation wherein one of its own officers is involved.” But before the official investigation was 24 hours old, Estrada had already been tried in the court of public opinion. The day after the shooting, representatives of CHP and the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office talked as though they had all the facts in hand: They told the media that the officer involved had responded to a report of a car crash in Willow Creek. When he tried to help the teenage driver, “there was a sudden, violent attack. Unexpectedly, [Estrada] pulled out a machete.” According to CHP Capt. Adam Jager, the young man then assaulted Gray with the weapon.

“The officer, fearing for his life, of course, discharged his weapon as he was going down. The officer was able to miraculously maintain his balance, retreat around his patrol car, got into his patrol car, locked the doors, and called for help.” To make his point visibly compelling at the press conference, Jager waved a machete that he claimed was the same size and style as the one used by Estrada. This neatly packaged narrative — speculation posing as fact — was offered to and gratefully received by the media before investigators even had an opportunity to interview the injured officer. Press and television coverage of the incident included the terms “reportedly” and “allegedly,” but no information was presented from the Estrada family’s perspective. Leanne Estrada, Richard’s mother, is not cited or quoted, even though, as I discovered, she is readily accessible and wants to talk about her son’s death. “There are many hard questions that need to be answered,” she told me. On the evening of Dec. 17, Mrs. Estrada said that she desperately called the tribal police and 911 to report that her severely manic son was missing and a danger to himself. “Did the CHP and Officer Gray receive this information?” she asked. “Did the responding officer ask for back-up and advice about how to handle Richie’s situation?” Meanwhile, headlines and captions told only the police version of the story, portraying Estrada as the perpetrator: “CHP Shoots, Kills Suspect,” “Wounded Officer Kills 17 Year Old Attacker,” “Officer Involved in Fatal Willow Creek Assault Identified,” “California Highway Patrol Officer Attacked By A Man With A Machete.” While we wait for the completion of the official investigation, we should keep in mind that Estrada’s homicide was neither an isolated nor unusual incident and that, typically, justice is not served in the continued on next page

continued from previous page aftermath of such tragic encounters. As President Obama’s Task Force on 21st Century Policing recently noted, it is a serious problem that police departments are not currently required to report to the federal government all incidents of “officer-involved shootings.” Despite this lack of official accountability, researchers estimate that police in the United States kill about 1,100 people annually, or three people every day. Between Dec. 18, when Estrada died, and May 1, more than 420 people died in confrontations with police. We also know that, despite the lack of official statistics, the victims of police homicides are usually young, male and disproportionately African American, Latino and Native American. They look like Richard Estrada. Every study carried out during the last 70 years confirms this conclusion. “In the North, there is as much killings of Negroes by the police” as takes place in the South, observed Gunnar Myrdal in his comprehensive 1944 study of American race relations. Black refugees from Southern violence “do not escape Jim Crow,” James Baldwin acerbically noted in 1961, “they merely encounter another, not-less-deadly variety.” According to a survey of nine cities in the 1960s, “the rate of Negro victims was seven times that of white victims.” This is not a problem of the distant past. A study of 1,217 fatal police shootings from 2010 to 2012 found young black men are 21 times more likely to be killed than their white peers. If, as his mother says, Estrada was suffering from a mental illness, this too resonates with what we know about police homicides. The last young Hoopa man to die in a confrontation with police, Peter Stewart in 2007, was suffering from schizophrenia. “His death,” his mother Jacqueline MarshallAlford said, “was a heart-breaking shock to the entire community.” The January 2014 case of Parminder

North Coast Journal Inc. Singh Shergill in Lodi echoes Estrada’s situation. When the police tracked down Shergill, a schizophrenic acting erratically and waving a knife, they shot him 14 times. “Being a minority veteran with mental illness in rural America certainly didn’t help him,” said an advocate for the Shergill family. The everyday occurrence of police homicides is compounded by the lack of transparency and fairness that characterizes most official post-mortems. In the case of Estrada, for example, the protocol of Humboldt’s CIRT, supposedly designed to ensure that his death is “fully and fairly investigated,” is not publicly accessible. It took me several requests to Humboldt County Counsel and the sheriff’s department to get a copy. Moreover, if CIRT is supposed to guarantee the appearance of propriety, how is it that the same sheriff’s department that was involved in the events surrounding Estrada’s death is the lead agency in the investigation? And why is it that, more than four months after Estrada’s death, the sheriff’s spokesperson “can’t provide an estimated date when the investigation will be completed?” Meanwhile, it took less than two weeks for the Maryland state attorney to complete an investigation into the death of Freddie Gray and bring criminal charges against the officers involved. It is a rare event when an officer is held criminally or professionally accountable for any crime or malfeasance resulting from the death of a civilian. You might expect this in Philadelphia in the 1950s when police officers were vindicated in killing 32 people, of whom 28 were African American. But statistics tell the same story today. A study by criminologist Philip Stinson looking at thousands of “justifiable homicides” voluntarily reported by police departments over the last decade found that only 54 officers were charged with crimes. Of those, 11 were convicted. Moreover, it has become almost

impossible to successfully pursue civil rights claims against police departments because, according to the dean of University of California Irvine’s law school, the U. S. Supreme Court puts an unfair burden of proof on petitioners. “When the police kill or injure innocent people,” said Erwin Chemerinsky, “the victims rarely have recourse.” Even as Attorney General Eric Holder spoke out against civil rights abuses by police, his Justice Department resolutely defended individual police officers charged with use of excessive force. The cover-up and whitewashing of police killings is now so widely recognized that Obama’s mainstream task force recommended “policies that mandate the use of external and independent prosecutors in cases of police use of force resulting in death.” I personally don’t think this goes far enough, and would like to see politically independent, civilian review boards in charge of investigating serious allegations against the police. But a special prosecutor would be an improvement on current practices, such as those followed in Humboldt County, where law enforcement agencies keep everything in-house and out of sight. l Tony Platt is a Distinguished Affiliated Scholar at the Center for the Study of Law and Society, UC Berkeley Law School.

umboldt County homicides are continuing at a rate unprecedented in recent history. Arcata police responded to the 2000 block of Eastern Avenue at about 11:15 p.m. Saturday, May 9, to find 38-year-old Trevor Mark Harrison bleeding from a gunshot wound to the shoulder. As detectives processed the crime scene — where police say a pre-arranged marijuana deal devolved into a robbery attempt that went awry — Harrison was pronounced dead at a local hospital, making him the county’s sixth homicide victim so far this year. If the current pace holds, Humboldt County is set to match last year’s total of 16, the most the county has recorded in at least 30 years (data prior to 1985 is not immediately available through the coroner’s office). Perhaps equally alarming is the fact that the 33 homicides the county has totaled in 2013, 2014 and thus far in 2015 equal the highest three-consecutive-year tally in the modern era, which was set in 1991 through 1993. And, as of this writing, we are only 132 days into the year. Over the last 30 years, Humboldt’s homicide rate has fluctuated, spiking and falling between the low of four homicides in 1989 and last year’s high of 16, with an average of 8.5 killings a year. Experts say this type of statistical variation is to be expected in a county with a relatively small population. But how do we know

when an outlier has become the norm, much less pinpoint a cause? Humboldt County District Attorney Maggie Fleming said she’s very reluctant to attribute the recent spike to a specific cause or to say it’s going to continue. “I do believe there can be substantial variation in annual and short-term frequency of events, such as homicides, even in the absence of changes and underlying causes,” she said, but quickly added there are some trends and themes. “As we know in our community, violence is often linked to substance abuse and mental health issues, so we really need to do all we can to address those specific issues in our community.” With five of Humboldt’s homicides this year under investigation by his office, Humboldt County Sheriff’s Lt. Wayne Hanson thinks society as a whole has simply become more violent. If pressed to point to an underlying theme in Humboldt’s recent killings, Hanson said a lot of them have a “nexus to marijuana.” That holds true with Harrison — police say the suspects had apparently arranged to purchase marijuana from or sell marijuana to him before attempting a robbery that ended with the shooting — but it’s unclear how prevalent the theme really is. Of the 22 killings stemming back to the start of last year, only four have been publicly linked with marijuana transactions or the industry as a whole. Five of the

cases remain unsolved, with no suspects in custody and no publicly known motive. Included in those are the stabbing death of a 14-year-old boy in Eureka, a decomposed body found in a wooded area near Hoopa and a 57-year-old man found shot to death in the Rancho Sequoia area of Southern Humboldt. Arcata hadn’t seen a homicide in eight years when it recorded three in 2013 — a double-murder committed during an alleged sexual assault at a house party and a stabbing during a downtown dispute. Harrison’s killing leaves the city looking at

four homicides in a 24-month period. It’s hard to make sense of, said Arcata Police Chief Tom Chapman, adding that he’d like to call the spike an anomaly but is hesitant to do so. “There’s no relationship between any of these cases, other than to say: You bring a gun to an event and bad things are going to freaking happen. … You bring out a knife, and something bad is going to happen,” he said. “It’s frustrating,” the chief continued, his voice trailing off slightly. “There seems to be this devaluation of human life.” ●

PSOs No More?

When you get in a fender bender, when you’re caught up in an Internet scam, when your daughter goes missing, the person you talk to probably won’t be a police officer. It will be a police services officer, a civil servant on the frontline of communication between the public and law enforcement. And due to a budget squeeze, the entire Eureka PSO staff is facing the axe. Linda Schwend, who works in Specialty Criminal Investigations, does the kind of work you’d expect to see on primetime cable dramas. She visits crime scenes, dusts for fingerprints, books evidence and searches for missing persons. This last duty, she says, is one of the most important and most challenging. Close to 60 people are reported missing in the city of Eureka each month. “I’m the one who talks to the loved ones,” she says. “I let them know that someone cares that their child has gone missing.” While much investigative work falls to sworn peace officers, PSOs alleviate the workload (there are only four patrol officers on duty in Eureka for any given shift) by connecting directly with the public and fulfilling duties for which officers may be overqualified. Chief Andy Mills says that the PSOs are “wonderful employees who handle a lot of workload that is very meaningful to the police department,” but that ultimately it’s more important to have a sustainable city budget. The police department is just one of many facing cuts due to a $2 million budget shortfall. The city of Eureka is expected to compensate for changes in its pension payout plan and unfunded liabilities by cutting $1.7 million from the police and fire departments. Nine PSO positions, an animal control officer and as many as six annuitant parttime officer positions may be eliminated if the proposed budget for the city of Eureka goes through. A budget hearing is scheduled for public comment at 4 p.m. on June 3. — Linda Stansberry l GOVERNMENT

Arcata Weathers Budget Storm, For Now

As other local cities — we’re looking at you, Eureka and Fortuna — contemplate deep budget cuts, it looks like Arcata will be able to hold the line on services, and even tuck a bit of money away for a rainy day. City staff is proposing a budget that’s

“very lean and tight,” but balanced. In the face of some $400,000 in increased CalPERS costs, city staff is leaning on an increase in property tax revenue and a proposed reorganization of City Hall to bring its finances into the black, with more than $110,000 slated to bolster the city’s reserves. Specifically, staff is recommending that the council follow through with new City Manager Karen Diemer’s reorganization plan, which would save some $222,000 in personnel costs, largely through the elimination of seven positions that currently sit vacant: finance department cashier, recreation manager, environmental services secretary, interpretive naturalist, building inspector, youth and family services counselor and a police officer. That, coupled with an almost $550,000 increase in property tax revenue, seems poised to help the city overcome the added CalPERS costs, as well as other increases to the costs of doing business. — Thadeus Greenson l BUSINESS / ECONOMY

Airport Updater: $ and Portland?

The county’s Aviation Division is likely to receive some temporary financial relief in the form of an intra-county loan, should the division’s dwindling trust funds be unable to support an ongoing structural deficit. As the Journal reported in March, the division was facing a fiscal year-end deficit of more than $800,000. The aviation enterprise fund is expected to lose $350,000 per year until additional airline service is secured or other revenue sources are identified. The board of Supervisors on May 5 directed the County Administration Office to work with public works to arrange a $500,000 loan from the county’s motor pool fund to the aviation enterprise fund to help cover the deficit. But that recommendation came with an admonition from the CAO, expressing concerns about the ongoing structural deficit of the aviation enterprise fund: “This is because enterprise funds are classified by accounting standards as ‘business-type activities’ and are supposed to stand on their own without the sort of short-term borrowing typical of the County’s governmental funds.” In other airport news, Crescent City’s airport recently signed a deal with Alaskabased PenAir to begin providing direct flights to Portland in September. Unlike Humboldt County’s speed-dating-esque search for additional air service, Del Norte

County was awarded a U.S. Department of Transportation essential air service contract, meaning the feds identified a need and approved a $3.5 million subsidy to fund the PenAir service. That’s led to some speculation that PenAir may consider Humboldt County’s airport for a similar service. Earlier this year, Fourth District Supervisor Virginia Bass told the Journal, “There’s something in the works at Del Norte/ Crescent City that [Aviation Division program manager Emily Jacobs] is aware of. She would be involved in saying a stop in Humboldt County would have its advantages if service is connected there.” The Redding Searchlight reported in April that PenAir was considering service in Redding, as well as Arcata/Eureka, and a PenAir executive told the Searchlight an announcement could come in early May. Fly Humboldt, the public-private partnership seeking additional air service, shared a photo on Facebook recently of Jacobs seated with a PenAir representative at a conference with the caption, “Presenting the argument on why they should Fly Humboldt!” — Grant Scott-Goforth l GOVERNMENT / MARIJUANA

“If you put marijuana on the agenda, they will come,” whispered the ghosts of old policy makers. And, lo, the North

Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board listened. At a packed meeting the afternoon of May 7, the board discussed its proposed regulations for Northern California cannabis cultivators. It was the second time that week, following a board of supervisors hearing on a marijuana statement, that the halls of government hummed with an unusual presence of life. During the meeting, water board staff outlined its proposed regulations, part of an ambitious permitting plan to bring private-land growers into compliance with water quality laws. The self-enrolled program would categorize growers into tiers based on the size and water impacts of their operations. (See “Waterboarding Weed,” May 7.) Perhaps even more remarkable than the attendance of perhaps 100 interested stakeholders, was the near universal support for the water board’s proposed regulations from environmentalists, government officials and marijuana industry types. Still, it being a public comment process, many suggested changes to the proposed ordinance. A representative from Clean Green Certified, an organic cannabis certification company, suggested that the water board be cautious in asking people to register, so as not to create a list of self-identified growers for a still-prohibitive federal government to seize, should it decide to.

the proposed regulations were written carefully in order to protect those registered as well as the staff of the board who drafted the ordinance. That caution extends to the ungodly title of the order: Waiver of Waste Discharge Requirements and General Water Quality Certification for Discharges of Waste Resulting from Marijuana Cultivation and Associated Activities or Operations with Similar Environmental Effects. The board feels that “or” (emphasis ours) will protect potential enrollees from admitting that they grow marijuana. Jen Kalt, speaking on behalf of the Northcoast Environmental Center, said the organization was generally supportive of the proposal, but urged the board to be careful not to draw enforcement resources away from other areas. Humboldt County Third District Supervisor Mark Lovelace called for collaboration with local regulatory agencies to make sure there is a clear delineation of responsibility for various land use, water, pollution and criminal activities. “A lot of people in this industry have not yet had the joy of being part of the regulated community,” Lovelace said wryly. “It’s important for there to be a really easy front door for folks who are just learning how to get regulated. … One agency to refer them out to other agencies in the expanding regulatory fold.” Growers and medical marijuana patients expressed concerns about being protected should they volunteer compliance, about inconsistent regulations on home fruit and ornamental gardens, and about the impact on indoor grows, which are not addressed by the staff ordinance. Patrick Murphy, co-chair of California Cannabis Voice Humboldt, said that the specific guidelines should be loosened slightly to allow larger grows in the regulation’s first tier, but he thanked the board for its leadership on the issue. Even Scott Greacen, the director of Friends of the Eel River who’s been vocal and obstinate in his criticism of the marijuana industry, said he appreciated the “thoughtful, realistic and progressive approach” the board was taking. He said enforcement was the area where the draft remains incomplete — “necessarily,” given the early stages of the program — and suggested ways to expedite fixes on Tier 2 and Tier 3 grows. Corbett thanked Greacen for being an early challenger to the environmental damage of the industry — a then-unpopular position. “Unfortunately,” Greacen said, “it still is.” — Grant Scott-Goforth l

the week in WEed

Weeder’s Digest By Grant Scott-Goforth grant@northcoastjournal.com

f you visit Humboldt County newspaper racks (and, since you’re reading this, I assume you do) with any regularity, you’ve almost certainly picked up a copy of the Emerald Magazine — the glossy, colorful lifestyle monthly that popped up in Arcata couple years ago. If you’ve gotten used to the breezy business features it contains, brace for change. The Emerald has been boostery from the beginning, highlighting wineries, inns and other Northern California companies in the colorful pages of its issues. But the magazine has always felt a bit like it lacked an identity. With themed editions ranging from “fathers” to “desserts,” the magazine apparently found a niche satisfying a common complaint that anyone in the newspaper business has gotten used to: “Why don’t you ever write about good news?” Editor and founder Christina DeGiovanni sought to do just that, at least for the well-off NorCal set. The magazine’s goal has been to promote “local opportunities for attending exciting events, embarking on luxurious getaways, experiencing fine dining and keeping up with the latest local trends in upscale living,” according to an “about” page on the website. Elsewhere, in a Craigslist help wanted ad, DeGiovanni characterized the magazine another way. “The Emerald aims to be the premier boutique women’s magazine for the North Coast. We have a strong leadership connection to women in Humboldt County.” One thing that DeGiovanni has explicitly not featured: the Emerald Triangle’s most notable product — weed. DeGiovanni launched the Emerald after legal troubles. She was arrested at her boyfriend’s Arcata home in 2012 on suspicion of possessing marijuana and firearms. Eventually, her charges were dropped, but, as she writes in the introduction to this month’s issue, “Perhaps in reaction to my personal trials relating to my proxim-

THE MAGAZINE’S MARIJUANA MAKEOVER. SUBMITTED

ity to the industry, when I launched The Emerald, I wanted it to chronicle a Humboldt County that was much more than the marijuana Mecca it’s almost always portrayed as.” She was adamant about ignoring pot, despite the magazine’s focus on lifestyles for people with disposable income, its marijuana industry ads and its namesake. Well, that’s all changing now. In a 180-degree turn, DeGiovanni completely rebranded the Emerald, launching the May edition with a new focus: “The Emerald Magazine is Northern California’s cannabis culture review guide for business, medical and lifestyle trends. … The Emerald highlights change in the industry by bridging the gap between the cannabis community and the media. The magazine intends to educate and enlighten the public on social, medical and on-going advancements, and works to establish a public tolerance and awareness as we move towards the age of legalization.” Talking in her small office off the Arcata Plaza recently, DeGiovanni says she is tired of “ignoring the elephant in the room.” She still looks to Sunset Magazine for inspiration, pointing to a stack of the West Coast magazines on her desk. “I wanted to maintain that lifestyle feel and cross over into cannabis,” DeGiovanni says. “I want to be the Martha Stewart of marijuana.” She called magazines like High Times “grungy,” saying she wasn’t going to switch over to a magazine “dripping with hash.” The inaugural cannabis issue’s cover features, instead, a stock photo of a bowl of sticky bud and an enormous joint on a

soft linen table cloth next to a bouquet of lavender. Readers found a light-on-details story about a “bud and breakfast” opening in Humboldt County (maybe), DIY instructions on making marijuana-infused vaginal lube and cocktails, reviews of strains and soils, and other pot-related articles, as well as features on Arcata artist Laurel Skye and Dell’Arte. DeGiovanni says the impetus to change the magazine came after her mother’s lung cancer surgery at the end of last year. After spending several months helping her recover, “I lost momentum,” DeGiovanni says. “When I came back in January, I just wanted something fresh and something new.” DeGiovanni discovered weed when she moved to Arcata to attend Humboldt State University. She says it helped reduce pain from an old gymnastics injury but she hasn’t been able to convince her mother that using marijuana might help the symptoms of her cancer treatment. “She’s too scared.” In an almost uncomfortably personal letter from the editor introducing the magazine’s change in direction, DeGiovanni rehashes her arrest and the trauma she says she experienced from it, and suggests that the magazine was a form of therapy. She invites readers to share their own stories of arrest for a feature called “My Bust.” So far, she says two people have told her about being raided, but that they didn’t want their stories published. But she says her website’s views have shot up since the rebranding. “I think this is going to be better for enhancing the magazine, and my career as well.” l

EDICAL CANNABIS can be extremely beneficial for many patients who seek relief. It can also be very confusing if you don’t know all the options out there. From flowers to edibles, smoking to juicing, the amount of choices can be overwhelming. At the Humboldt CA Association, we are here to help you through the process. We offer a variety of options for our patients to choose from, but more importantly, we offer our patients the opportunity to sit down one on one with our staff and design a specific care plan for their needs. There are now several CBD (cannabidiol) options for patients who are looking for relief without a cerebral effect. CBD is the nonpsychoactive cannabinoid compound that has incredible therapeutic benefits. CBD rich products are available in capsules, tincture sprays, and edibles for the patient who may not want to smoke at all. These products can help to relieve pain, reduce blood sugar levels, reduce seizures, calm inflammation, and can even inhibit cell growth in some tumor and cancer cells. There are over 100 cannabinoids that have been identified in the cannabis plant, and, with that, more benefits of the cannabis plant are discovered. We believe in the ‘Heart of Humboldt’, and professional and compassionate care is what you will always receive here.

Throw Like the Irish

PHOTO BY LARRY BUWALDA

Road bowling for beginners By Rees Hughes

getout@northcoastjournal.com

hen I think about Ireland, step dancing, Liam Neeson and Guinness beer come to mind. Just recently I’ve become aware of another Irish export: road bowling. As I researched Irish road bowling, it became apparent that it is destined to become the next rage on the empty country roads of the North Coast. Already, competitions have sprung up in West Virginia, upstate New York, rural Georgia and even Kansas. All you need is a 28-ounce iron or steel ball and a quiet road. You don’t have to be named Darragh or Fionn or speak Gaelic. No special shoes. No 10 pins. The rules are simple. The game is played as a singles competition or between teams. Only one ball (known officially as a bowl or bullet) is used per team, with players taking turns throwing. The goal is to take the fewest throws to toss the bowl along a predetermined course of country roads. (This differs from an earlier version of the game in which the test was to go the farthest in 20 throws.) The course can be a few hundred yards or several miles. It can include curves and turns or be completely straight. The bowler can get a running start as long as he or she does not cross the throwing line (referred to as the “butt” in road bowling parlance — don’t ask me why), and he or she can throw the bowl underhand or overhand. The bowler’s next shot (the throwing line) is made from where the last bowl stopped. If the bowl leaves the road, it is moved to the nearest point on the road.

When throwing around a bend or intersection, the bowl may be thrown through the air over the corner rather than rolled around it. However, the throw must strike the road surface or pass over the road. If the throw fails to reach the road, the player throws again and takes a one-shot penalty. If two or more players or teams have an equal number of shots crossing the finish line, the winner is decided by which final shot goes the farthest distance past the finish line. That’s it. No more rules. Armed with these parameters and four somewhat underweight metal balls that I had managed to locate at Arcata Scrap and Salvage, I coaxed a friend to join me for a morning of Irish road bowling. My wife, who had not been particularly inspired by my description of the game, was surprised I could get any bloody gobdaw to participate in such a harebrained game. It may have helped that it was a beautiful day and we figured the worst that could happen was that we would have a nice walk. I suggested that we cut our road bowling teeth in the Arcata Bottoms. We quickly learned that crowned roads with a multitude of potholes redirect even our excellent throws into the overgrown roughs along the road. This was followed by the second lesson. Metal balls are very difficult to find in tall grass. Note to self: Paint the balls a bright color or bring a powerful magnet. We decided to try another location. We parked at the Ma-le’l Dunes South lot and heaved our way along the unpaved access road past the gun club. These conditions may have been more similar to the 17th century, when road bowling

first began. We took turns spotting at a reasonable distance from the throwing line, prepared to dodge in the event of a superhuman toss. Technique became the focus of this match. Our overhand throws had the potential for both greater distance and inaccuracy. Long approach runs to give the throw an extra boost did not have the desired effect, either. Even though we spent far too much time locating errant throws, I was relieved to hear my friend exclaim at one point, “This is great fun.” “Let’s head out toward the North Jetty,” I suggested after playing our way down and back the access road. The recently paved roads in the jetty area had broad shoulders and provided a very different challenge. The bowl traveled a long distance in this setting, rewarding throws that managed to stay on the pavement. Several curious bystanders watched, trying to make some sense of the antics of these two grown men. It seems logical that any match should end at a drinking establishment. In YouTube footage of competitions, it appears that the obligatory pub stop happens both before and after the competition. On the Emerald Isle, wagering also seems to be an essential part of the game. And, according to road bowling historians, it isn’t unusual for disputes to erupt between competitors or spectators. Nothing like a good brawl to round out a match. I’ve painted the metal balls and we’ve set a date for the next match. Even my wife has shown some interest. And just like that, Irish road bowling has arrived on the North Coast. l northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 14, 2015

Smoke it if You’ve Got it

“BIG MOON LITTLE HOUSE” PASTEL BY LIBBY GEORGE

Homemade bacon ain’t that complicated By Jada Calypso Brotman tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com

tore-bought bacon, especially the high-end stuff, is so delicious that there’s little point in making it at home, except that homemade bacon is even better. I know it’s hard to imagine bacon being improved, but it’s more flavorful, fresher, more unctuously crispy and not full of unnecessary bletch. Curing your own pork belly is an easy way to gently enter the world of home-curing meats. One waltz around the kitchen creating your own smoky bacon, and you’ll be looking up prosciutto recipes and impressing your friends with artisanal holiday logs of cured beef loin. We’ve been culturally overwhelmed with bacon the last few years — I am not a fan of bacon candy, bacon marmalade, bacon as a wiener or pizza wrap or as headgear — but I usually have a small piece paper-wrapped in the fridge because it’s indispensable for the carnivorous home cook. Cured meat keeps for weeks, if not months, so I make it a few times a year. I eat bacon for breakfast once in a while and I use it weekly for seasoning and for cooking fat. Sweet potatoes get fried in it, broccoli and pine nuts get tossed with it, it gets chopped for cauliflower carbonara and, when I’m nostalgic for Scotland, bread, tomatoes, eggs and mushrooms get fried for a Sunday “fry-up.” Since pork belly became fashionable, it’s usually carried at the meat counters of our local markets. It used to be mind-bogglingly cheap, but foodie gits like myself have set that ship sailing. Still and all, try this recipe based on my father’s; it’s delicious and it’s cool to do it yourself.

Simple Homemade Smoked Bacon Ingredients and method: 3-pound piece pork belly 1 1/3 cup kosher or sea salt ½ cup white sugar First, the “dry cure.” Trim off any loose bits and skin from the meat, rinse and dry. Mix the salt and sugar and rub it evenly all over the meat. Lay the pork in a dish and cover it closely with plastic wrap. Leave it in the fridge for 48 hours. Remove some of the saltiness by soaking the meat in lots of cool, fresh water for 1 hour and 15 minutes. I don’t know why you just don’t add less salt from the start, but science. Curing is all science. You can store the meat in the fridge for a couple of days before soaking it if you’re not ready to smoke. It is even fryable at this point (the “green bacon” stage) but it won’t taste traditional. To make bacon taste like bacon, you have to smoke it. You can use an ordinary home kettle barbecue. Clear the bottom of the grill and set in a pan to catch drips. Make a tiny fire over on one side of the grill bottom using 3 or 4 chunks of natural mesquite charcoal. When it’s smoking, add a few chips of smoking wood like apple or alder. Adjust the air intake at the bottom to a quarter of the way open. Put in the grill rack and place the pork over the drip pan, and an oven thermometer next to the meat. Cover the barbecue and close the air holes on the lid 75 percent of the way — they should be on the opposite end from the fire. Smoke

should soon pour out. Check thermometer every 30 minutes or so and adjust the air intake to ensure it’s between 110 F and 150 F (120 F is perfect — this is not a cold smoked recipe). Smoke the meat for 4 to 6 hours, turning it every hour. There. You have bacon. Slice some off and fry it. If it’s too salty, you can soak it in cool water for an hour — the smoked flavor can’t be soaked out, so only the salt will dissipate. You can play around with the flavorings too. Bacon doesn’t have to have a dry cure. This brine makes maple bacon. Brining takes 48 hours, lots of fridge space and a cooler cooking temperature because sugar burns, so the maple flavor comes at a price.

Maple Brine Ingredients and method: In a non-corrosive container like a plastic or stainless steel bowl, mix till dissolved: 1 gallon water 1 cup brown sugar 1 cup kosher or sea salt 1 cup pure maple syrup 2 teaspoons fenugreek (it heightens the maple taste) Put the pork in a bowl with the mixture and weigh the meat down with a plate so it’s submerged. Soak the meat in the brine for 24 to 48 hours. Rinse thoroughly. Smoke the meat as above, but keep the temperature between 80 F and 120 F via the air intake valve and smoke it for 5 to 6 hours. l northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 14, 2015

YOU PRESUME YOU RECOGNIZE A GUY, BUT YOU DON’T Sometimes you might glance at a listing and say to yourself, “Oh, another talented, engaging guy with a guitar. Do I really need to go see that? I’m still trying to catch up on Mad Men … Maybe I should just stay in.” Stop right there. Because Steve Poltz is not just another talented, engaging guy with a guitar. He’s astonishing. He’s the homemade bread pudding with fresh whipped cream and caramel sauce of the singer-songwriter world.

Pep Love

WHERE:

By Jennifer Savage

ife is weird. Have you noticed that? When you’re a kid, you think you have it all figured out, then you get older and realize you don’t know much at all, then you think realizing you don’t know much is some sort of sign that you’re ahead in the game, but then something comes along and you’re shocked to understand that, once again, you’re caught without a clue. (If you don’t have that experience, you’re either delusional or too enlightened to be reading this little column. Namaste.) Given all that, I now invite you to forget what you think you know and open up to the following options …

WHO:

show is 21-and-over. Grant-Lee Phillips, who kicks ass in his own right — his latest album is drawn from intensive investigations into his native lineage, delving deeply into the subconscious mystery of his own back story, while simultaneously revealing the resonance of ancient myth with contemporary emotions — opens.

Friday

BEAT DOWN It’s a wrestling-themed Soul Night at Hum Brews. Expect high-flying hijinks from Matt n’ Adam as they “spin the wheels of doom from inside the squared circle.” Attire advice: tights, masks, capes and championships belts. Doors at 9 p.m., cover is $5, 21-and-over.

Saturday

URBAN MYTH The Jambalaya hosts a night of classic West Coast hip-hop curated by former local Berel Alexander and featuring Pep Love, one of the founding members of the legendary Oakland-based Hieroglyphics. Known for his intricate raps, indelible performances and hard-hitting beats, Pep Love has paved the way for the underground hip-hop scene for years. Think breezy West Coast jams and killer live performances. Up-and-coming Oakland crew Fresh Coast Connection opens — and the group includes Alexander in a role that’s a far cry from his better known funk element. DJs

Just One and D-Gravy are on spin duty. Dress to impress — how often do you get a chance to bust out the trick duds? Tickets are $10 advance, $15 at the door, show is 21-and-over, and starts at 9 p.m. BRAIN-BENDING Another reason to dress up: the amazing Geoffrey Castle at the Arkley Center. Castle is a six-string electric violinist from Seattle who is kicking off his West Coast tour in Eureka and we cannot overstate the amazingness of this fact. Because Geoff, as he’s known, started as a street musician and worked his way up to Broadway, the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame and other hallowed halls with his ability to bring forth a mind-melting mix of Celtic, Middle Eastern and rock music. He’s played in the Tony Award-winning Broadway production of M. Butterfly and enjoys destroying people’s preconceived notions of what is possible on a violin — which he does every time he takes the stage. Interesting side note: Castle is also the only electric rock violinist with his own iPhone App; “Violin Guy” lets you turn your phone into a violin where you can play an assortment of Irish and holiday tunes. Show starts at 7 p.m., tickets are $25-$30 depending on seating and recommended in advance.

Monday

A STORY FOR THE AGES One of the reasons I rarely interview bands is because I prefer to assess the

possibilities of enjoying their live shows based on their music, not their childhoods. Another reason is because once you start talking to them, there’s always a chance you may ask some inane question like, “So, how did you come up with your band name?” I mention this because after reading last week’s column, in which I referred to “the wonderfully named Spliff Moth,” someone asked me, “Am I missing a joke? What’s Spliff Moth mean?” And that caused this to happen: Setlist: “Hi! I don’t usually ask bands this, but I really love your name. Can you tell me how you came up with it?” Spliff Moth: “We were smoking a spliff on the porch at our house and a moth flew up to our little gathering. We offered it the spliff and it inhaled and then burst into a thousand lightning bolts. We named the band after its precious little wizard heart. All praise the mystic Spliff Moth.” See? Sometimes it’s better not to know. Anyway, hardcore psychpunks Ex Cult are playing with Dirty Pillows and the previously wonderfully named Spliff Moth at Siren’s Song, 8 p.m., $5.

Etc.

MOVIE TIMES.

TRAILERS. REVIEWS. DESKTOP: northcoastjournal.com/MovieTimes Relativity

Wrestling with formulas and smacking at the chalk dust on his sleeves, could Albert Einstein have conceived of the impact of his work on humanity? For example, without his theory regarding time travel, we might never have experienced the 1980s teen comedy brilliance of Back to the Future. It easily dwarfs his smackdown of the Newtonian model of gravity. Sure Stephen Hawking’s biopic is moving, but does it have a DeLorean? On Friday, May 15 at the Arcata Theatre Lounge at precisely 8 p.m., you can go back in time to 1985 and, well, go back in time to 1955 ($5). Marty McFly (a squeaky-voiced Michael J. Fox) is on a matchmaking mission to get his parents together and ensure his own birth with help from Christopher Lloyd as Dr. Emmett Brown, a wild-eyed scientist who’s done some serious after-market upgrades to his car. Armed with only his wits, future insights, a puffy vest and big sneakers, McFly navigates the 1950s and somehow makes his teen mom’s Oedipal advances into family comedy. Now if only we can go back and keep the sequels from happening …

Rutabaga queens technically reign for a year, but it’s a lifetime duty. A queen’s job is, along with general zaniness, to show up for Kinetic Universe events to host, cheer and turn the crazy up just a little more, especially for the Grand Championship race. It is not a post for the shy. On Saturday, May 16, the hallowed halls of Redwood Raks Dance Studio will host the competition for the coveted crown at 7 p.m. with music from Doug Fir and the 2x4s ($10, $7 with your own cup). How does one make a move for the monarchy? Settle down, Khaleesi — there’s no bloodshed. First, you’ll need a royal name and a talent that takes under six minutes. On the application, you’ll need to answer questions like, “What makes you so great?” (Applicants may attach extra pages, so it looks like modesty is not that important.) Also on the form, “Are you willing and able to travel?” and, “Do you see fire?” And just because it’s a queenly title doesn’t mean you have to be a lady. Or a woman. Then it’s all about blowing it up with a fabulous outfit, performing and shamelessly currying favor with the judges and the crowd at the ball. It should be a royal blast. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

Warmed Over and Heartwarming Hot Pursuit and Seymour By Dev Richards

LOOKING OVER ROLES FOR WOMEN OVER 40.

Reviews

HOT PURSUIT. Road comedies are an easy go-to for Hollywood during the lull between award and blockbuster season. They follow a basic formula and they’re relatively cheap to make. Other than coming up with a few original slapstick gags, the only thing they really require is good casting. Hot Pursuit had neither of these things and it was generally painful to watch. Cooper (Reese Witherspoon) is an intense and anxious San Antonio police officer with something to prove. Born into a cop family, she is constantly trying to fill her father’s shoes. After an arrest-gonewrong sends her to a desk job, she is given one last chance to redeem herself. All she has to do is guard a mob lackey and his wife while they wait to testify against a cartel. The lackey and Cooper’s partner are taken out by a surprise attack, leaving Cooper and the lackey’s wife, Daniella (Sofia Vergara) to outrun the hitmen and make their way to safety. The pair’s clashing personalities, highspeed shoot-outs and constant mishaps fail to keep the movie afloat, and it’s hard to ignore that the story’s central problem and therefore the entire plot of the film is completely avoidable. The ensuing antics quickly annoy, and most of the gags are recycled and predictable. The occasional cameo from an genuinely funny comedian (say, Jim Gaffigan) or actor helps to break up this monotony, but it’s not enough to redeem the film. Witherspoon’s (Legally Blonde) performance is over-eager and under-funny, while Vergara (Modern Family) isn’t given a whole lot to work with other than Hispanic stereotypes and jokes about her sexuality.

Director Anne Fletcher (The Proposal, 27 Dresses) has a history of making female-driven comedies, which have generally been pretty decent. Hot Pursuit, though, may have been doomed from the get-go. Writers David Feeney (New Girl) and John Quaintance (Undateable) both have resumes riddled with hackneyed and cancelled sitcoms. It’s hard to say if their script would have been any better in the hands of more talented lead actresses, but it certainly wouldn’t have been any worse. PG13. 87m. SEYMOUR: AN INTRODUCTION. Ethan Hawke has been trying to win my affections since Reality Bites (1994). He’s bland in most of his roles, like the director meant to use him as a place-filler until a real actor could come along and fill the role. I try to keep an open mind when seeing a Hawke movie, but he has yet to win me over, at least in front of the camera. His recent excursion into the field of documentary directing may have actually found him a way into my heart, though. Seymour: An Introduction is sweet and endearing. Borrowing its title from a J.D. Salinger novella, Seymour is an intimate look at the life of Seymour Bernstein, a brilliant concert pianist who abandoned a promising career in order to return to teaching. Bernstein is 81 and still teaches piano from his tiny New York apartment. Most of the film is comprised of a series of interviews with Bernstein and his current and former students, sprinkled with footage of Bernstein’s past performances. It’s a short, sweet film with a heartwarming message about art, life and doing what you love. It’s easy to see why Hawke is so enamored with Bernstein. The octogenarian has

a meditative outlook on life that is both soothing and inspiring. That being said, it’s still an odd choice for Hawke’s debut as a documentary director. It’s a very personal topic for Hawke — that much is clear. During his few appearances onscreen with Bernstein, you can see the admiration oozing from Hawke’s eyes. It’s a tad bit discomforting at first, like you’ve walked in on someone else’s private conversation. All told, the film is a great first effort on Hawke’s part and it hopefully won’t be his last documentary. Seymour is worth watching for anyone who needs some quiet inspiration in his or her life. It won’t bowl you over or make you a better person, but it may put some oomph in your step. PG. 84m. — Dev Richards

If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of the first publication of this Notice of Sale. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at trustee auction.

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 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 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 mortgage, beneficiary, trustee, or 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.

“

ey Barry, where’s your helmet?” called out the city council member as I cycled past her on Seventh Street this morning. She’s certainly in tune with conventional wisdom, which holds that biking without a helmet is dumb, like driving without a seatbelt. Truth is, I rarely wear my helmet around town during daylight hours, while I do on country roads, off-road and at night. Meanwhile, I believe kids, who are frequently involved in spills, should always wear them. This being National Bike Month, and with bike helmets in the news (State Senator Carol Liu recently put her proposed mandatory helmet law on hold after a backlash from organized bicycling advocates) this seems a good time to review helmet use. A 2013 Canadian study (visit www. northcoastjournal.com for links) using data from hospital admissions concluded that the effect of Canada’s mandatory helmet laws “seems to have been minimal.” A study of four urban areas (Washington, DC, Minneapolis, New York and Montreal) found that total bike-related injuries dropped by 28 percent (head injuries by 14 percent) after the introduction of city bikeshare systems, in which very few riders wear helmets. Researchers speculate that the reductions result from better bike infrastructure and the “safety in numbers” effect. A 2006 meta-study on the effect of mandatory helmet use in New Zealand and Australia found that “enforced helmet laws discourage cycling but produce no obvious response in percentage of head injuries.” This last finding is important: If helmet laws deter people from cycling, what does that do to overall health? Statistically, and taking the risks of non-helmet use into account, cycling extends life. For instance, a 2011 study of nearly 200,000 users of the “Bicing” bike-share system in Barcelona (Spain) concluded that the program reduced the expected number of deaths from 52 to 40.

DRIVERS GAVE U.K. CYCLING RESEARCHER IAN WALKER EXTRA CLEARANCE WHEN HE WORE A WIG. PHOTO COURTESY OF UNIVERSITY OF BATH

The “safety in numbers” argument claims that the more bikes are on the road, the safer each individual cyclist is. For example, a 45 percent increase in bicycling from 1980 to 2005 in the Netherlands coincided with a 58 percent decrease in bike fatalities. My larger concern with mandatory helmet laws is that they shift the responsibility for safety from the community to the individual cyclist, leading to less investment in bike-friendly infrastructure, such as bike lanes and traffic calming programs. In countries like the Netherlands and Denmark, where routine urban cycling goes hand-inhand with low injury rates, cyclists enjoy far better infrastructure than in typical U.S. “car rules” cities. Incidentally, a 2011 study for Portland, Oregon estimated that every million dollars invested in bike infrastructure results in nearly three million dollars saved in health care. Ten years ago, a well-publicized one-man experiment in Britain found that helmet use resulted in decreased vehicle-to-bike clearance. Using an ultrasonic “ruler,” cyclist Ian Walker recorded some 2,500 clearance distances while being overtaken: Drivers gave him nearly 4 inches more space when he wasn’t wearing a helmet than when he was. Interestingly, when he wore a long wig, he got an extra 10 inches of clearance! “We know helmets are useful in low-speed falls, and so are definitely good for children,” he said. “But [for adults], wearing a helmet might make a collision more likely in the first place.” My take is this: On balance, an adult cyclist in a crash is better off wearing a helmet, but is less likely than a child to be involved in an accident in the first place. Meanwhile, cyclists — helmeted or not — live longer on average. One final kicker: Mile for mile, a pedestrian is 3.5 times more likely than a cyclist to die in a traffic accident. l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) believes cycling is how God wants us to travel.
