Film Permits: The Sequel

ow do you make our ancient redwoods even more beautiful? You photograph them as a backdrop to Brad Pitt. Wait. Flip that. How do you make one ancient actor even more beautiful? Regardless of how you flip the question, that’s what Details magazine did in its November cover spread, which you can see online. The magazine took the Bradster, who, like a redwood tree, gets more beautiful every year, and posed him amid our trees and sorrel. And, by doing it when they did, they saved themselves some money and hassle, since the county’s new film permit ordinance, passed unanimously on May 19 at the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors meeting, had not yet gone into effect. I warned readers about the unconstitutionality of the then-proposed film ordinance in my last column, after the supervisors had passed an early draft on first reading, also by unanimous vote. It needed a second public reading to go into effect. At that point the supervisors tabled it, asking staff to bring back a revised version. This one passed under the consent calendar, with no comments from the public. If this column were a Hollywood movie, it would have begun with a sexy actor alone in forbidding but gorgeous scenery, foreshadowing the glorious doom that will surely come our way. Then something surprising would happen. You might expect this column to be an Oliver Stone-esque tale of government corruption, greed and ineptitude. That’s where I’d focus on the collusion between our supervisors and big media, using an unconstitutional law for the story plot. But I prefer the Steven Spielberg epics because, by the time we get to the end, governments and the corporate power people that started the mess learn their lessons or are all dead or overthrown, leaving us hopeful for the dawn of a new day. So, in a shocking twist that the trailer makes sure you know, the director makes the bad guys the good guys. And we are left with the notion that government of the people can be for the people. The film permit ordinance that the

6 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2015 • northcoastjournal.com

board of supervisors adopted May 19 is one that makes sense. It will require any big-budget productions that plan big stuff — the photographing of an environmentally-sensitive megastar against environmentally-sensitive megatrees, for example, to apply for a permit. The rest of us small town nobodies are free to snap away and dream that our photos or videos will go viral, get the attention of Robert Redford, end up the surprise hit of the Sundance Film Festival and leave us rich and famous, hobnobbing with Brad Pitt. Even when a permit is required, it waives the fee for student productions and photography for charitable purposes. The original draft of the ordinance copied some of the permit requirements towns like Arcata have in place, which are constitutionally problematic. I hope those towns will now look at the county ordinance for suggested changes. First, the new law specifically exempts any filming or photography that does not require such things as tearing down buildings, use of fire, wild animals, or cranes, and that doesn’t happen late at night or early in the morning. In other words, if you are making a small movie and filming in a way that doesn’t disrupt anything, you don’t need a permit. It doesn’t matter if you are a student, an amateur filmmaker or a commercial photographer. No mess, no fuss. Moreover, it specifically defines and exempts news media in a way that includes online media and that doesn’t restrict news organizations to coverage of breaking news. Finally, where there is wiggle room, the ordinance says the measurement should be “any activity that a reasonable person would view as having an impact on persons, property or the natural environment that is substantively different from the level of impact attributable to personal photography.” I first poked my nose into this film permit business when a student asked me to sign a form that would help him get a permit to film on the Arcata Plaza. The city had charged him $150 for a permit and I thought that was a mistake. In attempting to get him his money refunded, I found the city hadn’t made a little mistake; it had a big mistake on its hands — a film

permit policy that was so blatantly unconstitutional, I did something my mother used to tell me to do whenever I would complain about something. She said write your congressman. In this case, I called the mayor and then wrote every city council person and made enough of a nuisance of myself that City Manager Karen Diemer drafted an amendment to exempt any filming for educational purposes unless the filming required street closures or other extraordinary measures. Arcata adopted this amendment in March. The new county ordinance is better. I don’t think students should have special privileges that no other humble citizen of Humboldt County has. Anyone who wants to photograph or film something on public property and doesn’t cause major disruptions or danger should not need a permit to do so. These laws need to recognize the new visual, uber-commercial world we live in. Anyone who takes a photo or video has the potential to make money from it. There are no amateur photographers or videographers anymore. We all have the opportunity to partner with Google and make money off our media creations. And since any of us can instantly upload our photos or videos to Twitter, Instagram, Facebook or blogs, we are all journalists now. Even Brad Pitt. He told NPR’s Terry Gross in 2011 that he dropped out of the University of Missouri’s journalism program one paper short of a degree to pursue a career in acting. Who needs a journalism degree when you can play a reporter in your first major film role and then play a spy posing as a reporter, and work with Robert Redford both times? That sends such a lousy message to my journalism students I say slap the guy with a permit fee. That’s a danger to society.

HUMBOLDT COUNTY SUPERIOR COURT JUDGE W. BRUCE WATSON STANDS IN FRONT OF A PORTRAIT OF HIS FATHER, THE LATE JUDGE WILLIAM WATSON JR. WATSON HAS ANNOUNCED THAT HE WILL RETIRE IN JANUARY, AFTER 23 YEARS ON THE HUMBOLDT COUNTY BENCH. PHOTO BY THADEUS GREENSON

Vacancy on the Bench A judge’s retirement leaves governor to appoint Humboldt’s next robe By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

umboldt County Superior Court Judge W. Bruce Watson is leaving the bench. Watson’s six-year term was slated to run through the end of next year, but he announced May 20 that he will be retiring in January, after 23 robed years in the Humboldt County Courthouse. Watson’s announcement leaves a great deal of uncertainty in its wake, as it will now be up to Gov. Jerry Brown to appoint a replacement and there’s nothing forcing him to act quickly. A local product, Watson followed in his father, William Watson Jr.’s, footsteps. In fact, while in middle school, the younger Watson used to go to the courthouse after class and sit in the back of Courtroom One and watch his father work. Watson says he never really intended to become a lawyer, much less a judge, but he conceded children some-

times have a way of being “programmed” to follow a parent’s career path. So, decades after those afternoon courtroom visits, Watson took his father’s very seat, ruling the bench with his dad’s photograph hanging on the courtroom wall, along with those of other past Humboldt judges. Born in Berkeley but raised in Humboldt, Watson served in the U.S. Army as a platoon leader in Vietnam, taking home a Bronze Star. He later attended University of the Pacific’s McGeorge School of Law, after which he returned to Eureka and went into practice with his father after a 10-year a stint with the public defender’s office. He was elected as a municipal judge in 1992 and became a superior court judge in 1998. Since then, he’s presided over some of Humboldt County’s highest profile cases, including the spousal rape trial

of former Blue Lake Police Chief David Gundersen and the Skilled Nursing class action lawsuit. Back in 2003, Watson told the Daily Journal law publication that he found both his greatest challenge and enjoyment on the bench in taking a case-bycase approach to getting offenders back on the right path. Humboldt County Executive Officer Kerri Keenan said the timing of Watson’s announcement coincides with his capping out in his retirement plan. While most judges work under a plan that allows them to retire at 75 percent of their salary once they turn 65 and have 20 years on the bench, Watson worked under an earlier one that afforded a bonus after 23 years of service. Keenan also clarified that while Watson’s term was slated to end Dec. 31, 2016, whoever is appointed to replace him will

Stop. Shop. Robbing is so 2012.

Quirkily-captioned security cam stills of local ne’er-do-wells still flutter above the cold case, but the notorious Stop and Shop — aka the “Stop and Rob” — on Wabash and B streets in Eureka hasn’t called in an actual robbery for the last three years. Owner Lee Ok Boon was vague about why the store hasn’t lived up to its dubious reputation lately, saying only that there had been “no problems.” Business was good on the morning we visited, with a steady stream of clients lining up for coffee and cigarettes. One woman waved away the assistance of the extra clerk, clutching a fistful of dollar bills as she waited for Boon to be free. Boon greeted her with a smile. “Taaka?” Boon asked. The woman nodded, and Boon handed her a small plastic bottle of vodka. Eureka Police Department spokesperson Brittany Powell said she was as curious as us as to the turnaround, but Senior Detective Ron Harpham offered a surprising explanation: Maybe the “Stop and Rob” nickname was never deserved in the first place.

“I’ve worked here 24 years and it’s been robbed a couple of times, I suppose, but nothing that specifically warrants that reputation,” Harpham said in a phone interview. Harpham was the lead detective on the last reported robbery, in January 2012. The same armed suspect, captured by security cameras, is also wanted for a 2011 robbery of the store. The case remains unsolved. As to why the Stop and Shop gained its apocryphal moniker, Harpham blamed a combination of semantics and misinformation. Petty theft calls to the address, he said, have remained at a steady, but not extraordinary, rate. Actual robberies to convenience stores are rare, Harpham said, adding that many more people choose to rob grow houses or drug houses, because they have more money, less security and residents are less likely to report the crime. A quick Internet search reveals that “Stop and Rob” as a nickname for convenience stores is neither clever nor unique, having made its way into both Urban Dictionary and Police magazine. The Eureka Stop and Rob, however, does have its own active Facebook page, where our wittier locals check in to say they are “feeling lost,” need help “killing a keg” and “smell trouble” at the Stop and Rob. If the page is any indication, this Wabash Street store generates a lot of passion in both

Cause of Bus Crash Unknown

After a 13-month investigation, the California Highway Patrol determined a FedEx driver was at fault in the deadly bus crash that killed 10 people, including five high school students on their way to Humboldt State University’s Spring Preview event in April 2014. The investigation found that the FedEx driver made an unsafe turning movement on Interstate 5 near Orland, veering across the median and multiple lanes before colliding head-on with one of two tour buses bringing high schoolers and chaperones to HSU. The FedEx truck was found to be

mechanically sound and CHP does not believe environmental or roadway conditions caused the driver to swerve. The CHP was unable to determine the cause of that unsafe turning movement, and said the FedEx driver could have suffered an unknown medical condition, sleepiness or fatigue, though the investigation found no conclusive evidence to support any of those.

The theater celebrated its 100th anniversary in December and, less than six months later, changed hands for the first time in more than four decades. New owner Josh Neff is a Humboldt County native — he was born in Eureka and attended Fortuna High. He went away to college for a couple years, he said, before coming back to start a general

contractor business and VP a manufacturing company. The 37-year-old said he loves old buildings. “The Minor building is a historic treasure for our state and our community,” he wrote in an email. Phillips’ Minor Theatre Corporation sold three out of four of its theaters nearly 10 years ago, keeping the Minor and leasing operation of the business to Coming Attractions Theatres based out of Oregon. Coming Attractions has the option to continue to lease the Minor — its contract will be up early next year and the company must give Neff notice by midDecember on what it plans to do. Neff said he doesn’t see Coming Attractions giving up the Minor lease. “I think that they hold their cards pretty close to their vest,” he said. “If they did [give it up] for some reason I’m prepared to continue operating the theater. That part is actually kind of exciting to think about.” — Grant Scott-Goforth l COMMUNITY/CRIME

EPD’s “Streamlined” Budget

Chief Andrew Mills recently released a summary of his budget proposal on the

Eureka Police Department’s blog. Facing a $2 million city budget shortfall, Mills cited the need to make the department more “streamlined and efficient to fill the vacuum created by laying off PSOs and annuitants,” and said the workload currently carried by police services officers will be redistributed between officers, technical support and citizens. Officers will no longer respond to 911 calls in which nothing is heard — what Mills refers to as “butt dials” — and EPD will reprioritize which calls they respond to and the number of officers that respond. Citizens will: file their own police reports using a software program called CopLogic®; exchange information at non-injury traffic collisions; pick up and dispose of property such as hypodermic needles, couches and clothes on their own; and volunteer to staff functions previously handled by PSOs such as Neighborhood Watch. Sex offenders will be required to register when staff can “handle the volume,” not at their convenience. Meanwhile, bright yellow flyers have been thrust beneath windshield wipers all over Old Town, urging citizens to speak out against budget cuts at the budget hearing on Wednesday, June 3, to be held at Council Chamber at 4 p.m. — Linda Stansberry l

SUMMER CREW

rcata’s Medical Marijuana Innovation Area got an enthusiastic thumbs-up on May 20 from the city council, which ultimately voted unanimously in favor of the proposal, but not before an antsy, standing-room-only crowd stood by while the council spent two hours wading through the night’s consent agenda. When a speaker made a plea for donations to support a two-week summer camp sponsored by a young woman’s foundation, several people approached and handed her hundred dollar bills. She had come to the right meeting. With legalization pending — and with it the specter of the city losing businesses to neighboring communities, Economic Development Director Larry Oetker told the council, “our role is quickly diminishing. … We’re on the brink of having significant issues in our community and having a great number of people and business who will lose or have their incomes diminished.” Oetker was recommending that the city set aside three parcels on West End Road — the former Humboldt Flakeboard mill, owned by Bob Figas, and a cityowned property across the street — for a cultivation and processing center. (Read more about the proposal at www.northcoastjournal.com.) While he declined to say from whom, Oetker said “there is an immediate desire to get in there and start growing medical marijuana on site,” a point made clear by the dozens of people in attendance for the agenda item. Oetker also called for a moratorium on dispensaries (the city has a fourdispensary capacity, and two are currently operating) outside of the innovation area — though it would allow the two current dispensaries to continue operating. Ultimately, Oetker said, the council needs to answer some basic questions about the future landscape of marijuana in Arcata, including how it would regulate marijuana consumption at the site, how legalization might affect lease rates for commercial space and whether Arcata should seek to become a cannabis tourist destination. Councilwoman Susan Ornelas said she was concerned about the moratorium — comparing it to limiting Silicon Valley’s tech business in the ’70s — and saying the “cultural bias” toward marijuana was

driving council members to try to keep marijuana under wraps. But Sofia Pereira, the council’s newest member, said she saw the moratorium as similar to the city’s limit on chain restaurants — a way to promote local businesses and keep marijuana conglomerates from popping up all over town, should legalization strike. Several members of the public spoke, raising minor concerns, but the overall reaction was positive. The council’s approval starts a public hearing process at the planning commission level, where there will be further discussions about how to move forward with the proposed cultivation, warehousing and processing facility that will likely include a community kitchen for marijuana-infused foods. At the end of the night, the council voted to give the remainder of a loan originally issued to the now-defunct Flakeboard mill to Bob Figas. The loan will allow Figas to work with potential cannabis tenants and the city to develop the innovation area.

l An Oregon man who was badly burned when his garage butane-extract hash oil lab exploded has sued the gas station that sold him the butane. Kevin Tveisme is asking for $11 million from importers, distributors and the nearby Shell mini-mart, “alleging that they failed to warn that butane vapors are highly explosive, especially in enclosed spaces such as a garage, and that other people who have tried to make hash oil with butane have been badly burned or killed,” according to the Oregonian. Tveisme’s longtime friend died from injuries sustained in the blast. Butane extraction, of course, is the super-dangerous and ridiculously wasteful method of concentrating THC from marijuana plant matter. It’s led to massive explosions all over the country, including numerous ones in Southern Humboldt and a van fire on the Arcata Plaza in 2013. Tveisme said he learned how to make butane-extract hash oil from YouTube, and told the Oregonian that, while the butane canisters warn about overfilling lighters, there were no warnings against using it for the unspoken real use of the butane canisters — hash extraction. l

1. Choose the Right Strain Not all strains are created equal! When authorized to use medicinal cannabis, the first step is to do some research on what kind of cannabis will work best to alleviate your individual symptoms. Explore a variety of strains. If you are new to cannabis, it may be beneficial to try small amounts of different strains when you are first starting out. This will help you test different strains and different varieties (indicas, sativas, or hybrids) to find your perfect match. Indica strains relieve pain, help with insomnia etc. Hybrids slow anxiety and help you relax while still allowing you to keep moving though your day. Sativa strains get you moving and tend to have a more cerebral effect and be uplifting. 2. Choose the Best Consumption Method There are many different methods of using cannabis, but not all consumption devices or types may be ideal for you. Some forms of intake, such as smoking, can aggravate symptoms instead of delivering the medicine intended to help alleviate them. Tinctures, dabs, medibles, oils, lotions, vaporizers are all different medicating options, discuss intake options with your doctor to see which form is suggested to you. If a particular method is not working for you, try something else. We are always happy to suggest other options that may be better suited for you. There are over 100 cannabinoids that have been identified in the cannabis plant, and, with that, more benefits of the cannabis plant are discovered.

‘The Future is Ours’ Three Humboldt high school seniors you need to know By Thadeus Greenson

n the coming weeks, hundreds of Humboldt County high school students will take their diplomas and cross the thresholds toward the rest of their lives. Some will head off to college in the fall. Others will enter the workforce. And at least a few will surely stay in their parents’ homes, bumming around and trying to figure out what’s next. While it’s a fallacy to say these young men and women are just now entering the real world — they’ve been here all along — high school graduation is clearly a milestone, a symbol of achievement and new beginnings. As we wish these folks clarity, perseverance, vision and luck moving forward, we take this chance to look back at three young Humboldters who have overcome seemingly every obstacle in their path to reach their goals. There’s a lot that we, as a community, can learn from them.

A World Askew

Six Rivers Charter School Principal Nic Collart can picture the scene perfectly, in part, because it played out with regularity. He’d be standing on the edge of the parking lot of Arcata High School, which shares a campus with Six Rivers. Along with other administrators, Collart would be keeping vigilant watch as students trickled back to campus from their lunch break. “All of a sudden, there’s this boomboom-boom,” Collart recalls, adding that even from a distance, the bass was something felt as much as heard. Then Collart would watch a beat up, green Saturn station wagon come into view, slowing as it passed so the driver could offer Collart a wave and a smile. Collart would blush a bit, turn to his fellow administrators — most of whom work at Arcata High School — and explain that the kid returning to campus blasting old school rap music at unbelievable decibels was one of his, his valedictorian, in fact, one William “Billy” Askew Jr.

Collart smiles as he recounts the story, in part, because it underscores the fact that Askew is an enigma. In letters of recommendation, Collart and other Six Rivers staff used words like “driven,” “diligent,” “hardworking” and “maturity,” but his story is more than can be reflected on a resume or a single to-whom-it-mayconcern letter. For his part, Collart said he didn’t fully know and appreciate Askew’s story until recently. The principal first met his star-pupilto-be at one of Six Rivers’ recruiting outreach events, where the school staff goes to different local junior high schools to explain what the small charter school of about 120 students has to offer: a college preparatory curriculum, small class sizes, a flexible learning environment and lots of individualized attention. Collart remembers the meeting clearly because Askew was so engaged, staying after to ask questions. What Collard didn’t know is that Askew was in the midst of one of the hardest stretches of his young life. Askew moved with his folks to Humboldt County when he was in second grade to help care for his dying grandmother. A few years later, Askew’s parents divorced, with his father moving back to Chicago and him staying to live with his mother. Hard times followed. Askew and his mom got evicted from their apartmen, and spent more than three years — Askew’s fifth through ninth grade years — homeless, staying on friends’ couches, in their car and, ultimately, in a small trailer on a property owned by Askew’s mother’s boss, who ran a small pasta company. Throughout this time, Askew and his mom were staying in places in Eureka, though he was attending school in Arcata. So, for the better part of three years, Askew would leave home at about 6:45 a.m., ride his bike to the bus stop, take the bus into Arcata, and then ride to school. He made the trek daily — rain or shine — and it took him about four hours, round trip. In his three years of junior high,

Rising Stars Each spring, the local nonprofit Rising Stars puts together its Academic Achievement Team, taking nominations from every local high school’s senior class. Students are chosen based not only on their academic records, but also on their involvement with their communities and ability to translate academic skills to other aspects of life as volunteers, activists and agents of change. This year, Rising Stars chose 21 students (including the three profiled in this week’s cover story), with an average grade point average of 4.32.

some might see this as a story of hardship, Askew doesn’t. To him, it’s simply one of determination. “When I was doing bad, I wished that someone would come help my mom and I, but they never came,” he explains. So, pretty quickly, Askew says, he determined that if he was going to make something of his life, school was his ticket. “I kind of had it drilled into me that I’ve got a free education, and I’m going to take advantage of that,” he says, wearing an American flag T-shirt and adding that he’s keenly aware of how much taxpayers are spending on his K-12 education WILLIAM “BILLY” ASKEW JR., SIX RIVERS CHARTER HIGH SCHOOL’S VALEDICTORIAN, EARNED STRAIGHT A’S IN SCHOOL DESPITE NEVER ($122,000, accordHAVING A COMPUTER AT HOME.

Askew’s been all business in the classroom, as well, earning straight As through his high school career, which includes a number of college-level advanced placement courses, leaving him with a grade point average well north of 4.0. He’s especially excelled in math, which he says just comes easy. Outside the classroom, Askew is also driven. He recalls trying out for Six Rivers’ basketball team as a freshman and being stuck on the “developing group,” a unit of young players who simply didn’t have the skills to see the court in a game. Four years later, Askew is the starting center and captain of a team that won its league championship last season. In a couple of weeks, Askew will graduate from Six Rivers Charter High School and begin the rest of his life. After spending the summer working at Arcata’s Sushi Spot restaurant as a dishwasher — Askew says the job can be monotonous but he’s good at it, and he likes to be good at things — he’s headed to University of Illinois in the fall, where he’ll be close to his father and some extended family and plans to major in accounting. Why accounting? “It’s a stable job. There’s always demand for accountants and it’s the second best accounting school in the country,” Askew says, adding that the accounting school hosts a career fair at the end of every school year that’s attended by a number of Fortune 500 companies and that most graduating seniors leave with jobs. Billy Askew has made his next business decision.

A Question of Confidence

It’s hard to believe Arcata High School’s valedictorian could ever have been shy or insecure. After all, she’s spent a summer as a science intern at Stanford University, is dancing with a local company’s adult ensemble and boasts a gaudy 4.5 grade point average, the product of having taken 11 advanced placement, three honors and

five college courses in her high school career. But, to hear Claire Robinson tell it, there was a time when she was almost paralyzed with self-doubt. “I was too shy to raise my hand in class, even when I knew I had the right answer,” she recalls. “I was really shy and insecure and it led to trouble with relationships — not speaking up when I deserved more from someone, not speaking up when a teacher wasn’t treating me fairly in class.” Robinson, who moved to Humboldt from Palo Alto in grade school, says there’s was no storybook moment when she realized her self-worth, no low-point when she decided she needed to put herself out there. Instead, she says, it was a gradual process. “I just realized that if I was going to get where I want to get in life, I just kind of had to get over it,” she says. Dance, she says, was a critical part

DORIS GONZALEZ Fortuna High School Brown University

of the process, adding that when you’re a dancer alone on stage, you either need to be supremely confident or convincingly fake it. So Robinson says she generally faked it and, over time, the confidence became genuine. It seems to have suited her well. Looking at Robinson’s resume, it’s clear that she is gifted in the field of science — she studied independently for her college level advanced placement chemistry test, as Arcata High didn’t offer the course — but it’s also clear that has aggressively hunted out opportunities. After her sophomore year, Robinson says she was infatuated with science and desperate to spend her summer learning. So she sent out an email to everyone she knew — family friends, teachers, everyone — asking if they knew of anything. She wound up interning at Stanford University’s Bio-X program. Her job was to watch and digest 150 faculty lectures detailing research, then summarize each lecture in four to six sentences, with a grabby headline. “It

had to be scientifically accurate, but very accessible,” she explains, adding that she loved the 10-week experience. More recently, Robinson was cruising social media when she came across a blurb about SciNote Magazine, an online publication “started by some kids from Harvard.” Robinson contacted them and was quickly signed up as a contributor to the site, on hand — along with PhD candidates and undergrads — to answer science questions from readers. Robinsons says she loved the experience, relishing the chance to research things like why all snowflakes have six sides (the shape is determined by the molecular structure, so while every snowflake is unique, they all have the same number of sides). But Robinson’s passion for science has also helped her find another. As she’s become more and more involved in the heavily male-dominated field, she’s thought about the struggles and issues unique to being a woman. She founded Arcata High’s Women’s Advocacy Club, a group that allows young women to get together and discuss issues in a safe space, helped plan last year’s Humboldt State

JOSHUA MCKNIGHT JR. Hoopa Valley High School Oregon State University

University Take Back the Night event and worked closely with Arcata High’s Girls Who Code club, which gets girls together in an all-female group to practice computer programing. When describing Robinson, her teachers and counselors use words like “mature,” “poised,” “articulate” and “tenacious.” In a letter of recommendation, her teacher Shelley Stewart says simply: “Her promise and potential for growth are without limit.” If there’s a moment when Robinson seems shy, it’s when these comments are brought up and her resume is read back to her. Then, she blushes slightly. “I’ve had a lot of special opportunities that not everyone has,” she says. “Some people have a lot of accomplishments that don’t show up on a resume.” She says she is also fortunate to have realized relatively early in her life that she needs to believe in herself, even to the point of diving into opportunities she feels underqualified for. The way Robinson sees it, self-doubt is about the biggest challenge facing our society, which is permeated with the message

hen he gets wind of my plans to go rowing on Humboldt Bay, my husband eyeballs me sternly over his reading glasses. “Be careful.” he warns. “One wrong move and you could fly out of the boat.” A friend suggests I start doing pushups immediately. My mother reminds me to wear a lifejacket. With this advice in mind, I pull up to the Humboldt Bay Rowing Association (HBRA) boathouse just south of the Samoa Bridge in Old Town. It’s cold out, and a hoary fog hangs high in the early morning sky. Inside the boathouse (which is shared with Humboldt State University’s Rowing Association) long, pointy boats rest neatly on racks and hang from the ceiling. Old fashioned metal lockers line the walls. Straight-backed rowing machines stand upright in a corner. With a background hum of easy banter, 20 or so people move around purposefully. The big metal doors roll open and everyone lines up to lift the boat. There’s clearly a system and timing to their movements. The coxswain, the one who sits at the front of the boat, calls out instructions. I grapple with the thing and do my part to raise the boat up and over our heads and march it out to the bay. With the help of HBRA veteran Lorraine Dillon, I lock my oar into the rigger, screw it down and tuck my sneakers in a little hole under the sliding seat. I step

carefully onto the boat in my socks. One foot, then two, and I strap into a pair of shoes that are conveniently attached to the boat. I grab the oar, hold it the way I’m told and hope I can do this with some measure of grace. Once we get started, there’s not much opportunity to absorb the natural beauty of the bay. I’m focused on the task at hand. In that moment, my world is very small. Rowing in the right direction is important, as is the tilt of the oar and the curve of my back. As I struggle to mirror the strokes of the oars alongside me, I make a mental note that this would not be a good activity for the hungover among us. All cognitive and physical faculties must be on deck to address the vigorous, multi-layered demands of rowing. We’re in an eight-seater boat called a shell. After a few sets, the rower in front of me, Laurie Clendenen, turns around and gives me a high-five. She just ran the Boston Marathon. I am astonished by the determination and strength of these women. According to the US Rowing Association website, rowing is one of the few sports that uses all of the major muscle groups and, as a result, rowers are generally thought to be the world’s most physically fit athletes. The average age in the women’s eight is 50-something. Dillon is the oldest at 64. She killed it out there on the bay. The pull and sway of the strokes is grounding, and I’m struck by the value of working as a team — the disciplined

camaraderie. Being part of that unified effort is invigorating. Also, my knees hurt. And I fear for my back. After about half an hour, I shift over to the coach’s motorized boat. With the beginner out of the shell, the rowers hit their stride. At one point, they pause, drop a layer of clothing and continue on their way. The coach explains that rowers don’t wear lifejackets (sorry, Mom) and instead depend on the oars and boat as floatation devices should things go awry. HBRA’s mission is to promote rowing “for community members of all ages and abilities.” This is reassuring. My rowing mates are consistently patient and encouraging. As a rule, I’m not particularly coordinated, nor am I athletic. But I’m feeling arguably more studly after my rowing experience. In fact, I might have to do it again. A nonprofit established in 1989, HBRA participates in a competitive league and offers recreational programs for adults and juniors aged 11-18. If you’re intrigued: good news! Saturday, June 6 is HBRA’s Learn to Row Day. Hosted annually in conjunction with rowing associations nationwide, this free event provides an opportunity for the community to investigate rowing in earnest. HBRA members will be on hand from 7 a.m. to noon to teach the basics of boat safety, demonstrate rowing techniques and get you out on the water. Register for a two-hour session and find more information at www.hbra.org. l

Reubenesque

It’s hard to look classy whilst cramming a big, grilled, cheesy, pastrami-packed Reuben into your mouth. And there are days when you want the taste of the sandwich, but maybe not the heart flutters afterward. Your solution is at Nourish Bistro & Catering (518 Henderson St., Eureka). Order up a Reuben at the counter and try not to be distressed when you are asked about your choice of bread, cheese and dressing ($8.50). Apparently there are those who want to tweak the classic, and that’s their lifestyle choice. But maybe we need to address some actual issues and draft a Defense of Reubens Act that defines this American institution as a hot sandwich on rye bread with pastrami, Swiss cheese, sauerkraut and thousand island dressing. Do what you will in your own home, but you can’t call it a Reuben without hurting all Reubens. Ahem. Nourish’s version, cut into sharp wedges, is downright minimalist. This is not the daunting monolith you faced on your visit to New York — the tower of meat teetering to one side, a flimsy slice of bread stranded at the top like Fay Wray. Instead, it’s toasty, swirly rye bread with a reasonable handful of satisfyingly salty Premier pastrami, sauerkraut and a swipe

of thousand island. Piping hot so you can taste the fat of the meat, which is cut just enough with the tart kraut, it is a taste of the real thing that you can eat with dignity in your distressed, white, shabby-chic chair.

Á la Truck

The appeal of a crepe is its delicate nature. Sure, you love the lumberjackpowering stack of flapjacks meant to send you off to either haul timber or drop back into bed like a felled tree. But crepes are the pancake’s refined French cousin, impractical, requiring special pans. Crepes are art for art’s sake. Hum Grown Grindz, the red food truck that can be found lately parked at Bigfoot Supply in Willow Creek (41212 State Route 299) seems an unlikely source, but it’s cranking out both sweet and savory varieties. The chicken chipotle pesto crepe is so stuffed it’s thinking about being a burrito ($9). Did you get the wrong order? No, it’s supposed to be that creamy, and with the basil, garlic and a little smoky heat, the sauce and tender chicken hit all the buttons. And so pretty! It’s easily the fanciest thing you’ve gotten out of a truck in some time. The crepe itself is substantial enough to hold all that filling, pleasantly egg-y and moist. In fact, it still holds together after a car ride back to Eureka, where office mates descended like a starving French mob on the leftovers, which were still delicious.

Flat Out

You think you’re happy with the damp circle of particle board that is a packaged tortilla. And maybe you are. But a fresh,

handmade corn or flour tortilla with its uneven edges and its delicate chewiness is to the hard-edged, pre-packaged kind as a crackling, oven-warm baguette is to a slice of Wonder. Sure, there’s a time and place for the mass-produced stuff (late at night, with a jar of Nutella, under the cold scrutiny of your cat). But up against homemade? It’s not even a fair fight. Two crews of happy, well-fed construction workers ambled out of La Patria Solis (1718 Fourth St., Eureka) yesterday. According to the waitress, everybody got the pastor and asada tacos ($2.49 each). The homemade corn tortillas are soft, warm and thick, cradling handfuls of chopped grilled steak with onion and cilantro. The asada has a little char to it, and the red marinade of the pastor is tangy and spicy, playing nicely off the sweet corn tortilla. Wait, the flour tortillas are homemade, too? We’re getting flautas — beef, because it looks like one of those construction guys got the last of the lengua ($2.79 each). They come with sides, but you can order them a la carte and they’ll show up with some grilled onions on the side, and a hefty dollop of sour cream and queso fresco on top. The cigar-like rolls are still tender, not over-fried, and the flavor of the tortilla reminds you why you will never really break up with white flour. Let the cat judge you for that. l Tried something new lately? Can’t stop ordering an old favorite? Send your hot tips to Jennifer@northcoastjournal.com and we’ll dig into it for the Hum Plate blog at www.northcoastjournal.com.

Lady-Fame Or The Fluke by Peter Santino

Reviewed by Bill Cassel

ady-Fame or The Fluke technically qualifies as a memoir, though it feels like an insult to call it one, given the way that term’s been degraded in recent years. The events depicted herein are taken, we are led to believe, from Peter Santino’s real life, though one passage, about a third of the way through, tells the reader to stop asking if the story is true and instead ask: “Is this story any good?” So, clearly Santino doesn’t want us to get hung up on questions of authenticity. He is an artist and this is most definitely an art project, less concerned with the niceties of narrative structure than with painting a picture of the times, places and people involved. The time was the early ’70s; the place, Eureka (mostly); the people, Santino, then in his early 20s, and his circle of boho-hippie-artist friends and associates. It seems to have been a pretty weird world to live in; the social fabric ripped open by the upheavals of the ’60s had not yet begun to close itself up, and the result was an exhilarating sense of freedom and possibility combined with disorientation and creeping paranoia. A sense of forebod-

ing lurks in the background throughout Lady-Fame, culminating in a near-death experience aboard the commercial fishing boat that gives the book its name. At that point Lady-Fame becomes a recognizable and suspenseful tale of danger, adventure and heroism, but it takes its sweet time getting there. More goaloriented readers may find their patience tried along the way, but those who enjoy a good meander down memory lane will enjoy themselves. It helps if you follow the listening suggestions that appear on almost every page, either through Santino’s custom Spotify playlist, or by just looking them up on YouTube like I did. Any book that encourages you to listen to Donovan, Captain Beefheart and the Mills Brothers is doing something right. As one who has labored long in the coal mines of publishing, I appreciate a book that is put together with care, as this one is. Not just the choice of words but the choice of fonts, the design, the graphics — all are impeccable. Lady-Fame or The Fluke is clearly a labor of love, and that is a thing to be applauded. And yes, it’s a pretty good story, too. l

Growing Pains

Rock musical Spring Awakening at NCRT By Kate Haley

frontrow@northcoastjournal.com

hildhood is an odd time. So much of the world is new; there are so many large, sincere questions. Adults seem to move in their own universe — one that’s simultaneously enchanting and frightening. For teens, this conflicting desire and fear seems to increase exponentially. In some moments, nothing feels greater than to inhabit that mysterious grown-up world, with all its seeming privileges. Yet the knowledge of how to do this, where the secrets of the “real world” lie, remains hidden — and earnest inquiries to teachers and parents return cryptic answers, if any at all. Time and clumsily gained experience ultimately usher most of us into our adult lives. The experimentation we endure as we stumble awkwardly out of childhood is a timeless and universal rite of passage. This held as true in 1906, when Spring Awakening: A Children’s Tragedy by German playwright Frank Wedekind premiered, as it did 100 years later, when it was adapted into a rock musical. With book and lyrics by Steven Sater and music by Duncan Sheik (who is perhaps better known for the mid-1990s hit “Barely Breathing”), the updated Spring Awakening won eight Tony Awards in its initial Broadway run. The story sticks close to the plot of the original play, following a group of young teens in 1890s Germany as they navigate their budding sexuality. Delving into complex and often painful issues such as teen sex, pregnancy, child abuse, same-sex attraction and suicide, the show has wrestled with perpetually taboo topics in all its incarnations.

The production currently presented by NCRT and directed by Andrea Zvaleko is a particularly heartfelt one with greater emphasis placed on the emotion of the story than on hard-rocking beats. The live, onstage band, led by music director Jonathan Webster (full disclosure: Webster is a part-time employee at the Journal), includes an upright bass and a cello lending a softer, soulful sound to the score. As a whole, the ensemble seems particularly invested in accessing the feeling behind each piece. It is effective in inspiring empathy in the audience, but there are moments when it gets in the way of the clarity of the performance. It is the show’s ballads that truly shine. In the opening number, “Mama Who Bore Me,” actress Jessie Rawson is instantly captivating alone on stage as Wendla. There is an inherent challenge in trying, as adult actors, to authentically portray children; you can tell when the performers are working overly hard at this and the effect is most sweet and convincing when it comes through naturally. As Georg, played by actor Dante Gelormino maintains an easy youthfulness well, as does Sonia Copple as Martha. The set, designed by Liz Uhazy, is simple and evocative, eschewing fixed scenery in favor of an open set for the actors to move around. Boxes are used to construct the various settings of the story — particularly effective here as it conveys the childlike capacity for

imaginative play — and what is at once an oak tree can next be a school desk or a hayloft. It is unfortunate that the choreography for some of the numbers comes off a bit stiff and overly scripted, as it does not make full use of the flexibility of the set design. Overall, the cast and crew have put together an emotionally wrought production where the performers are clearly working to bring their all and leave it on the stage. Spring Awakening continues its run through June 20. Performances held on Thursday through Saturday begin at 8 p.m. with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. Tickets are $18. For information about specific performance dates or to make reservations contact 442-6278. This production contains strong language and mature themes and may not be suitable for all ages.

Upcoming:

Unique original works from Dell’Arte International in Blue Lake are around the corner. Running June 4 through June 7, the second-year MFA students present the Storytelling Projects. Small groups will be led through a series of installations at the River Campus which will explore the range and power of narrative using a variety of performance techniques. On June 18, Mary Jane: The Musical III opens in the outdoor Rooney Amphitheatre. This hilarious ode to local (horti)culture returns in its third incarnation to kick off the 2015 Mad River Festival and will run through June 25. For more information about both shows call 668-5663 or visit www.dellarte.com. l

Tickets are $30 in advance for the weekend or $20 daily at the gate. Full details and lineup at www. mateel.org.

Thursday

Radio weirdness Speaking of SoHum haps, KMUD’s The Adventurous Ear, “a show that focuses on music of exceptional originality produced by regional artists” will play Crackle, a new album by Totter featuring classical chamber music, throat singing, olde English poetry and folk Americana with heavy techno beats, industrial noise, found sounds and glitched-out circuit-bent madness. Tune in at 5 p.m.

Friday

High and lonesome The Ky Burt Duo does a fine and invigorating take on old-time Americana. If you like haunting twang, get yourself to the Sanctuary. Cover is $5 to $20, sliding scale, all ages, 8 p.m. Solo soulster DJ Matt Jackson flies solo for a night of tunes taken from every corner of the Missing Link Records music collection.

Fab Four Redwood Curtain is one of those places people don’t just like, they love. Whether it’s the beer or the vibe (or both), the addition of Humboldt’s gypsy jamgrass favorites The Absynth Quartet promises to be a good thing.

30 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 28, 2015 • northcoastjournal.com

Hie thee to Phillipsville Get out your dancing shoes and prepare to swing because Petunia and The Vipers perform two evenings (Friday and Saturday) at The Riverwood Inn — be ambitious and see if they have a room for the night. This fantastic band offers a piercing ballad one moment and manic rockabilly the next, and expands on country standards with unexpected twists — Latin rhythms, for example, which could go horribly awry but instead heighten the fun. Show starts at 9 p.m., 21-and-over. Price TBA.

Monday

Saturday

Thrash it up It’s a punk scene at the Alibi with Atown skate rockers Imperial Destructo and Eureka’s acoustic The Bored Again. Cover is $3, music starts at 11 p.m., 21-and-over.

Sunday

You don’t have to be 21 The Works, your favorite Old Town record shop, hosts an all-ages gig starting at 9 p.m. and featuring Massenger, Isotope, Bella Rex and Pachucos in Space. Think punk and hardcore and lots of sweat. Price TBA.

Head to the Moose Lodge on Sunday, May 31 for the Oyster Tri-tip Family Barbecue from 12:30 to 4 p.m. ($15 dinner, $5 hot dog dinner).

E.T. vs. Yoda

On Saturday, May 30, you’ll have to choose between your favorite locally filmed 1980s sci-fi movies starring an ugly/adorable alien puppet thingy. On the one hand, the Humboldt-Del Norte Film Commission is putting on Movies in the Park with E.T., in which you can spot scenic Fort Dick, as well as a young Drew Barrymore (free). It’s the heartwarming friendly-alien-innocent-kids Spielberg adventure you loved, and now you can throw on a hoodie and watch the bike take off over the trees while you’re surrounded by redwoods in actual moonlight — practically in the movie. Show up at 7 p.m. at Sequoia Park for DJ music and groove in the woods as the sun sets. Film rolls at 9 p.m. On the other hand, Movies Under the Mural is happening at Los Bagels in Arcata featuring Return of the Jedi at 9 p.m. (free). Episode VI, people — it’s pre-Jar Jar Binks, Yoda’s not CG and Stormtroopers are smashing into trees at Grizzly Creek Redwoods and Jedediah Smith state parks. Bring your own chair and cozy blankie (that metal bikini from Comic-Con is going to get chilly), grab some free popcorn and blow it up like Alderaan. Too soon? Listen: It’s the sound of sci-fi fans rending their garments in frustration. But choose you must. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

Summer Now

You can sit around waiting for the solstice on June 21, or you can start summer now. It must be summer if the Summer Arts and Music Festival is on, right? Follow the sun to the Benbow Lake State Recreation Area on Saturday, May 30 and Sunday, May 31 from 9:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. for the festival fun you’ve been dreaming of all winter and spring ($30 advance weekend pass, $20/day gate). The stages and tents are many. Over the weekend, the Trees stage features JJ Grey & MoFro, Blackalicious, Feet First Dancers, Lost Coast Marimbas and Motherlode, among others. Down on the Lawn stage, swivel your hips to Off the Chart’s Latin jazz standards, the OLIO Music & Dance Collective’s Latin and Congolese rhythms and SaltPetal’s surf-dance-indie-rock sounds. From there, you can bounce around between the Summertronica tent, the Andean music tent, a world music jam tent and a belly dancing temple. Elsewhere on the grounds, check out eco-centric displays and demos and browse artwork in a 1958 vintage-trailer-turned-gallery. Down to clown? Entertain the little ones at the Kids’ Zone with ClownSnotBombs, Circus Nature’s circus equipment and toys, Circus Emporium Roadshow and its Odditorium. Already feels like summer. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

The Bachelorette Pretty, predictable Far From the Madding Crowd By Jennifer Savage

HEY, GIRL. DID IT HURT WHEN YOU FELL FROM THE HEADY EXPECTATIONS OF A ROMANTIC MARRIAGE TO AN ULTIMATELY UNSUITABLE MAN?

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD. Once I was at the salon with a new stylist who had just moved from San Francisco to Humboldt for love only to break up right away. The other clients and stylists bemoaned the dearth of legitimately employed, responsible, attractive, single men in Humboldt County, telling her, “Move back! Move to Portland! There are no men here!” I can’t speak to the truth of that, but the refrain repeats on a regular enough basis that perhaps single-andlooking ladies in Humboldt will be swept up by Thomas Vinterberg’s Far From the Madding Crowd, a respected 1874 literary classic by Thomas Hardy and very silly movie starring Carey Mulligan as Bathsheba Everdene (literary ancestor of and inspiration for Katniss!). I can’t think who else might. The original novel has been adapted into plays, films, a comic strip, an opera and a musical, as well as being listed by the Guardian as the 10th best love story of all time. It’s been described as “subversive.” This current film adaptation, however, is formula romance novel with all the implications: an impulsive temptress of a heroine, a cadre of suitors, glorious countryside and enough symbolism to choke an English major.

We open with Everdene nuzzling her horse, then mounting him to race without reserve across the sumptuous hillside as the ocean spreads wide and salty on the horizon. Spent, she leads the beautifully muscled animal into the forest, where she lays back content as her steed carries onward. Handsome Gabriel Oak is shepherding his flock when he glimpses her through the trees, one of which happens to snag her scarf. Our heroine fails to notice this, which gives Oak a reason to talk to her — “talk” being the exchange of a few sentences and, more importantly, Everdene’s impish grin and Oak’s infatuated gaze. (Oak is played by Matthias Schoenaerts, aka the Belgian Ryan Gosling.) She returns to the farm where she milks a cow, lovingly stroking the swollen udder. Eventually, the mighty Oak shows up at Everdene’s house with a lamb and a proposal. Alas, she is too independent for him. She would need someone to tame her, she explains, and Oak will never be able to. To her credit — and Mulligan is excellent in this — she rejects him with enough charm and sincerity that she remains likeable and we must respect her decision, even though we all know they’re going to — does it count as a spoiler if it’s astoundingly obvious? — end up together eventually. That’s not the end of poor Oak’s trouble with independent-minded creatures. His new sheepdog is lousy at his job — if you’re sensitive to animal peril, this is an opportune time to fetch some popcorn or tiptoe out to the restroom – resulting in Oak losing his livelihood. Meanwhile, Everdene inherits her uncle’s farm in a nearby village, enabling her to assume an independence at a time women had few options. (In case we’re unaware that a good marriage was the pinnacle of a woman’s hope in the 1870s, Everdene’s young female assistant explicitly spells it out, “To have a choice!”) The two meet again, this time with Oak finding work at Bathsheba’s farm, providing many opportunities for him to demonstrate the finer arts of manhood: saving the barn from fire, saving the sheep

from bloating, saving the knives (if not the movie) from dullness and generally moving about with understated strength. Enter William Boldwood, a rich neighboring farmer whose wood is anything but. He does, he tells Everdene, have a grand house and “many unusual pigs,” but his repressed nature has kept him a distant bachelor into middle age despite all the single ladies in town vying for his attention. Until now. And Mulligan’s Bathsheba does appeal — she’s smart but vulnerable, an invitation to adventure with an exceptionally tiny waist. Last but not least is Sergeant Frank Troy, the dashing and dastardly young soldier. He immediately desires Bathsheba and moves far more boldly than Oak or Boldwood dare, artfully eliciting sexual desire in a way that is more alarming than erotic. (If a man you don’t know tells you you’re the most beautiful thing he’s seen, tells you to meet him in the “hollow of the fern,” where he then wants to swing his sword about your person, do not say yes!) The swordplay is clearly foreplay and no one is surprised when this Trojan horse of a man follows it with, “And now I’ll take this” — “this” being his tongue in her mouth and with that, her kissing virginity. More drama ensues as Everdene is undone by her own desire, leaving us to wonder how Boldwood and Troy will ultimately be dispatched so that the ever-noble Oak can finally win Bathsheba. But that is all the speculation the film offers. For a movie sold on the premise of a woman having her choice of three suitors, the question is never truly who, only when and how. It’s lovely to look at and the acting is indeed fine, but the film is too far from the madding — the pulse fails to quicken. PG13. 119m. — Jennifer Savage

BICEP OBSERVATIONS ARE TAKEN AT THE SOUTH POLE DARK SECTOR LABORATORY, WHERE THE SKY IS THE CLEANEST ON EARTH, WITH NO POLLUTION FROM LIGHT OR RADIO-WAVES, AND VIRTUALLY NO WATER VAPOR IN THE ATMOSPHERE. THE BICEP2 ANTENNA IS ON THE RIGHT.

Theory of Anything By Barry Evans

fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com ast spring, researchers observing from the South Pole BICEP2 telescope claimed to have found virtually indisputable proof that the universe began in a spurt of insanely rapid inflation nearly 14 billion years ago. (Think of a car’s air bag deploying in a fraction of a second, then multiply the expansion and shorten the time by a few quadrillion, and you’re on the right track.) This was Big News to cosmologists and physicists, who would love to understand how the conditions we now observe came about. The quest to match cosmological observations to theory comes with a huge problem: Of all possible universes, ours is strikingly simple — too simple to have just happened by chance. Given the myriad possibilities of starting conditions, the “shape” — in a gravitational sense — of our cosmos is weirdly flat and smooth. For it to have turned out the way it did, the universe must have started out unbelievably fine-tuned. But why? Thirtysome years ago, Alan Guth, then a young post-doc at Caltech, proposed a way out: inflation. Inflation theory posits that, a split-second after time-zero, the universe expanded exponentially, flattening out any irregularities in the process (imagine stretching a sheet of rubber to smooth out any wrinkles). Inflation makes the initial conditions (the wrinkles) irrelevant, thus eliminating the need for fine-tuning. Surprisingly, the theory is testable. If true, we should still be able to detect a swirly pattern of primordial gravity waves that emanated during the inflationary phase. It’s that pattern, the “B-mode polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation,” that the BICEP2 consortium claimed to have seen last year. Except they didn’t. In a year-long series of egg-on-our-faces statements, the researchers reversed

themselves and now acknowledge that galactic dust was responsible for most, if not all, of their observations. Many scientists — including Princeton University’s Einstein Professor in Science Paul Steinhardt, ironically one of the originators of inflation theory — were anything but surprised by the setback. Steinhardt and others have long been criticizing the theory as a non-falsifiable “theory of anything.” The whole point of inflation was to eliminate the fine-tuning requirement of the early universe, but it turns out that for inflation to stop, you need a different set of fine-tuned constants to govern it. Replacing one type of fine-tuning with another is hardly progress. A fine-tuned universe without apparent cause is an accidental universe: “We’re here because we’re here because we’re here,” as the song goes. Or maybe our universe is just one of many — an infinite number, in most “multiverse” theories — in which the conditions here (but not elsewhere) are just right for galaxies and stars to form, life to start and at least one sentient species to start asking questions about how it all began. If it were otherwise, we wouldn’t be here arguing about it; it’s dubbed the “anthropic principle.” Which is not science. It’s defeatism. It explains nothing. We can do better. Which might be the motto of the BICEP folks, as they prepare to install their new and improved BICEP3 gravity wave detection array at the South Pole. This time around, they may be a bit more cautious before announcing any universe-shaking results. ● Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) thinks the universe is weirder than we can imagine, while taking heart that his Field Notes anthologies are for sale at local bookstores.

INCENTIVE GRANT FUNDING OPPORTUNITY NCUAQMD 15’ - 16’ CARL MOYER PROGRAM The California Air Resources Board has determined that pollution created by diesel powered engines represents a significant health risk. Additional regulations will be implemented over the next several years which are designed to reduce or eliminate this risk. Owners of medium and heavy duty equipment including agricultural tractors, trucks, loaders, dozers, cranes, and marine vessels will be required to purchase new vehicles or make substantial modifications to existing equipment. The Carl Moyer Memorial Air Quality Standards Attainment Program (Carl Moyer Program) is a grant program that funds the replacement of older gross polluting engines and machinery with new cleaner-than-required engines and equipment. The North Coast Unified Air Quality Management District (NCUAQMD) has allocated $270,000 for the 2015-2016 cycle to fund replacement projects for equipment in the following categories: Off-Road – Cranes, Dozers, Earth Movers, Agricultural Tractors etc. • Off-Road Equipment Replacement Program – Replacement of equipment powered by uncontrolled engines with new units • Repower – Installation of new engines

NOTICE OF IMPENDING POWER TO SELL TAX-DEFAULTED PROPERTY

Revenue and Taxation Code Section 3361, 3362

Pursuant to Revenue and Taxation Codes sections 3691 and 3692.4, the following conditions will, by operation of law, subject real property to the Tax Collector’s power to sell. 1) All property for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for five or more years. Note: The power to sell schedule for nonresidential commercial property is three or more years of tax-defaulted status, unless the county adopts, by ordinance or resolution, the five-year taxdefault schedule. 2) All property that has a nuisance abatement lien recorded against it and for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for three or more years. 3) Any property that has been identified and requested for purchase by a city, county, city and county, or nonprofit organization to serve the public benefit by providing housing or services directly related to low-income persons and for which property taxes and assessments have been in default for three or more years. The parcels listed herein meet the one or more of the criteria listed above and thus, will become subject to the Tax Collector’s power to sell on July 1, 2015, at 12:01 a.m., by operation of law. The Tax Collector’s power to sell will arise unless the property is either redeemed or made subject to an installment plan of redemption initiated as provided by law prior to close of business on the last business day in June. The right to an installment plan terminates on the last business day in June, and after that date the entire balance due must be paid in full to prevent sale of the property at public auction. The right of redemption survives the property becoming subject to the power to sell, but it terminates at close of business on the last business day prior to the date of the sale by the Tax Collector. All information concerning redemption or the initiation of an installment plan of redemption will be furnished, upon request, by John Bartholomew, Humboldt County Tax Collector, 825 5th Street, Room 125, Eureka, CA 95501, (707)476-2450.
