CHERRIE ANDERSEN IS CLOSING HER CLINIC ON JUNE 19TH. I would like to thank all of my patients for their support and allowing me to share in their lives for these past four years. I recommend Redwood Women’s Center, 3309 Renner Dr., Fortuna, for all your health care needs. You can reach them for an appointment or to obtain copies of Center for Women’s Health Care’s medical records at 725-6108. (A small handling and copying fee may apply.)

More Rail Reactions Editor: Found Mr. Burns’ article enjoyable and informative. But one minor nit to pick. The map graphic appears to misidentify the Van Duzen River as the North Fork of the Eel. Though the headwaters of each are very close, the North Fork proceeds south and joins the main branch of the Eel near Spyrock in Mendocino County, at least according to the atlas I have. James “Bronco” Weseman, Eureka Editor: “The Disappearing Railroad Blues” (May 13) was an excellent piece of reporting and writing. It answered many questions of the railroad and the NCRA. It represents what a good reporter and a small newspaper can do to inform the people (public). Congratulations. Norm Christensen, Kneeland

Excuse Me, Can You Put that Out? Editor: I enjoyed William Kowinski’s critique of Dell’Arte International’s graduating students’ three-part performance (“Creepy Characters and Clowns,” May 16). I attended, too, and although it was entertaining I would like to add my least favorite part of the evening’s shows: the constant smoking of one of the characters in the third piece. I didn’t attend the following final performance of these plays, but I hope my phone call to Dell’Arte suggesting a “prop” cigarette was heeded. The smell that permeated the small theater wasn’t pleasant, much less the health issues that could be involved, including secondhand smoke, allergy or asthma issues, and fire danger. The audience and actors deserve better. Janice Ray, Blue Lake

Not the Lion’s Fault Editor: “Ranger kills Mountain Lion” (Blog Jammin’, May 16) sums up the end result, but the article ignored the fundamental issue that a loose and unsupervised dog created the situation and responsibility for the “attack” belongs to the dog owner. The mountain lion “chased” the dog

Most wildlife are illequipped to defend themselves from a loose dog — a common local example would be shorebirds on the beach being chased by loose dogs. Dog owners would raise hell if their animals were subject to being chased around the neighborhood a few dozen times a day by some other animal wanting to “play.” Questions must be asked of the ranger who exhibited such a profound disrespect for the environment — is this person responsible for enforcing regulations they won’t follow? Do they interpret and educate others about our wildlife? The Park Service needs to hold such an irresponsible public employee to account. George Ziminsky, Arcata

Drama Trauma

Editor: Kjeld Lyth, the axing of whose drama program was featured in a recent NCJ (“Re-imagining CR,” April 11), sent a message of farewell to the CR community, which I summarize here: “… I have been teaching here with unyielding passion, since many of you were children. … There has not been a single word of gratitude from on high, or any acknowledgement whatsoever of my 34 years of devoted service. … To me, this is a reflection of a management style that exhibits not only indifference and arrogance towards employees … but an unconcern about the wreckage they leave behind. … For many years now, this institution has been absent of joy, creativity or positive momentum. … We must resist the corporate mentality of the bottom line above all else. … The value of education, and valuing those who offer it, must always be the goal.” Kjeld’s words toll like a bell on a tower sinking under the waves. They resonate with those of Dave Grant whose recent NCJ letter (May 9) lamented the demise of the Historic Preservation and Tech-

nology Program (HPRT). Dave used skills acquired in that program to restore the beloved 19th century Chambers farmhouse out here in Petrolia. Both grieve for public education, the passing to future generations the gift of our collective culture, without which democracy cannot function. Perhaps the lives of us parents, grandparents and community members have become so desperate and hectic that we must endure the corporate takeover of our children’s futures being rammed down our throats. It’s happened before. I’m reminded of the old photographs we’ve all seen, of unsmiling Native American children, dressed in uniforms and lined up on the steps of the missionary schools. I can easily reimagine the wreckage they left behind. Ellen Taylor, Petrolia

f you’re looking for an unparalleled thrill at the movies, you can forget summer’s special effects bonanzas. Superman stunts and Star Trek warps can’t match the exhilaration of recognizing someone or something from your own life up there on the silver screen. Case-in-point: In 2008, a sizable crowd turned out at the Eureka Theater for the local premier of Humboldt County, a mediocre pot dramedy. About 15 minutes in, when a road sign reading “Humboldt County Line” flashed onscreen, the crowd went nuts. For a road sign. Maybe it’s narcissism and maybe it’s local pride, but I have yet to meet the local who can resist the urge to say, “Oh, you’re

Murphy’s Welcomes New Customers! Jen Petullo & Markel Hoffman, Murphy’s Shoppers Jen and Markel moved to Humboldt over a decade ago and became good friends. When they found out that they were both pregnant it began an exciting time in their lives. Markel says, “Jen and I worked at A to Z Eye Care while we were pregnant. Since the boys were born, Jen and Markel have geared back up to participate in the community events that helped solidify their friendship; Bicycle Tour of the Unknown Coast, Avenue of the Giants Marathon, Trinidad to Clam Beach Run, Foggy Bottoms Run, and the Mt. Shasta Tin Man Triathlon. “We both believe in showing this

generation,” Markel says, gesturing to the boys, “why we love Humboldt County and what is so beautiful about this place. We jog with them in strollers and they love the Farmer’s Market.” Jen, who previously directed the Peace and Justice Center and co-founded the free Reiki Clinic at the Isis Osiris Healing Temple says, “We are both committed to organizations that bring health and healing to our community.” She currently practices psychotherapy as a Marriage Family Therapist Intern at the Humboldt Family Service Center which also offers a free walk-in clinic on Mondays. Markel manages

the annual free vision clinic at A to Z Eye Care. Both women and Markel’s husband, Steve, volunteer at the Humboldt County TriKids Triathalon event. It takes place this weekend, June 2nd and, yes, there is still time to register at trikids.com! “With no close family when we moved here, we have created a Humboldt family,” says Jen.

continued from page 7 Bigfoot thriller called Willow Creek. Yes, the movie was filmed in and around the Humboldt County town, and it features cameos and supporting roles from numerous locals (including Journal alum Andrew Goff, who was on assignment for his Sept. 13, 2012, cover story “Rural Bar Crawl” when he bumped into the film crew at The Forks bar.) The former film is the bigger deal money wise. With a reported budget of $130 million, the After Earth crew spent nine days here in Humboldt, drawn by the pristine, otherworldly beauty of our redwood forests, which, according to a location manager quoted in the L.A. Times last week, “evoke that sense of what the Earth would be like a thousand years after man has left.” Cassandra Hesseltine, the HumboldtDel Norte County film commissioner, said that despite a year of trying she can’t be sure exactly how much of that megabudget was spent locally. Sony Pictures, the studio behind After Earth, claimed it dropped $5 million here, but Hesseltine figures it was probably between $2 million and $3 million in direct dollars and significantly more when you include indirect spending, like crew visits to local restaurants, bars and stores. But it’s the latter film, Willow Creek, that might have more appeal for locals, especially those who believe in a certain reclusive bipedal mammal. Goldthwait has been fascinated with Bigfoot since age 9, when he first saw the famous PattersonGimlin footage, that shaky video from 1967 that purportedly captured the creature loping across a river bed. The footage was shot near Orleans, and Goldthwait came up with his idea for a movie while on a 1,400-mile personal pilgrimage to famous areas in “California Squatchery,” he told the Journal in a phone interview last week. He went to Santa Cruz, the Sierra Nevada, “and then I ended up in Willow Creek, which is kind of the mecca, the daddy of all sightings,” he said. For those not familiar, Goldthwait made his rather unique name in the 1980s as an acerbic stand-up comedian with a demented screech-shout delivery and a punk rock attitude. (He opened for Nirvana on tour and once set Jay Leno’s chair on fire during a taping of The Tonight Show.) He’s had bit roles in several Police Academy movies, the 1988 Bill Murray comedy Scrooged and more than 30 TV shows. With a leg up from friend Jimmy Kimmel he made a successful transition to directing, with two of his movies premier-

ing at the Sundance Film Festival. On the phone Goldthwait’s voice showed no trace of the tremulous squeal it once had onstage. He said that he’s long wanted to direct his own Bigfoot movie, in part because most previous ones have been condescending and exploitative. Goldthwait somewhat reluctantly admitted to believing in the mythic beast, and he said that he relates to the hard-core fanatics. “I’m always for the weirdos and the outcasts and the fringe people,” he said. “I understand those — I am those people, so I’m not about to start making fun of ’em.” His film, which he describes as part documentary, part “Blair Squatch Project,” was shot entirely on consumer-grade electronics, partly to give it a sense of realism and partly to allow the crew to be a bit reckless with the equipment, he said. The story centers on a young couple played by Bryce Johnson and Alexie Gilmore (both of whom will join Goldthwait at Friday’s screening). Johnson plays an enthusiastic Bigfoot nut and Gilmore is his skeptical but supportive girlfriend — characters that Goldthwait based loosely on himself and his wife. They visit various local sites of Bigfoot lore and kitsch before venturing into the woods, where things go sideways. During production Goldthwait was dogged about finding just the right locations. He sometimes drove hours down dirt roads to find the perfect stretch of riverbed or patch of forest. His stars sometimes mocked this commitment to proper authenticity, pointing out that a scene inside a tent may as well be shot in a parking lot. But Goldthwait couldn’t restrain his enthusiasm for Bigfoot country. Here’s how he described an evening on location: “Alexie and Bryce are standing by the fire warming up and I’m running around like a wild man in the woods in a pair of shorts, jumping in the river and stuff. ... I really liked it out there a lot. I think it scared my wife. She was like, ‘No, we’re not moving.’” But he and his stars are coming back for a visit, driving the scenic route from San Francisco north through the Avenue of the Giants on their way to Friday’s screening in Arcata. See our Calendar section for details on both the After Earth sneak peak/reception and the West Coast premiere of Willow Creek, featuring a musical performance by Bigfoot singer/songwriter Tom Yamarone. l northcoastjournal.com • North Coast Journal • Thursday, May 30, 2013

I suppose this is what you end up with when you rename an airport by committee — an unwieldy 13-syllable Franken-name that no one will ever use in conversation. Ever. Today the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted five-zip to change the name of the Arcata-Eureka Airport to (deep breath) “California Redwood Coast — Humboldt County Airport.” What, no mention of oysters? Can’t we fit the Kinetic Sculpture Race in there? And Bigfoot! Where is Bigfoot?! The top vote-getter on a list of suggestions compiled by county staff was the much more elegant “Humboldt Redwoods Regional Airport.” But instead the board went with a suggestion offered by the 15-syllable Humboldt County Aviation Advisory Committee. On the bright side, the new name will give people something to read while waiting for delayed flights. ●

Coast Guard Rescues Two Men Near Bay

Two men are safe after their boat capsized just off the South Jetty on May 23. The crew of a rescue boat from the Humboldt Bay Coast Guard rushed to pull the two fishermen out of the water, according to a Coast Guard press release. A bystander saw the 16-foot boat flip over and contacted the Coast Guard. The crew threw a lifeline into the water for the two men to grab onto, but one of the men was so cold he could not move to grab it. His fellow survivor had to help him grab the rope. Back on shore, one of the men was treated for hypothermia. It was the first real-life rescue for one crew member. From the press release: “It was my first time seeing everything come together,” said Seaman Noah Perry, a newly qualified crewman. “And even though it was really intense, and we took a few breakers, everyone fell back on their training. It felt really good.” Both the men were wearing life jackets when their boat flipped over. The Coast

During his years at the dance company, Furlong worked to make dance classes more accessible to the community, teaching dance with College of the Redwoods and helping get scholarships for dance students. In addition to staging “The Nutcracker” annually, Furlong created a number of other shows at North Coast Dance, including “Gabriel’s Garden,” “Jack and the Beanstalk” and “To Pluto and Back.” From a press release: North Coast Dance (NCD) announced today that Artistic Director Danny Furlong and the non-profit dance organization have amicably parted ways.

The Eureka Police Department today issued a press release saying that Bodhi Tree, the 28-year-old suspect in last weekend’s double murder in Arcata, is now considered a “person of interest” in a May 15 shooting in Eureka. From a press release: As reported earlier, on 5/15/13 the Eureka Police Department responded to the 1900 block of J Street in Eureka in response to the shooting of Rhett August. August was transported to St. Joseph Hospital where he remains in stable but serious condition. On 5/17/13 the Arcata Police Department responded to a double homicide in the City of Arcata. Detectives believe the homicides in Arcata and the shooting in Eureka are potentially related. Bodhi Tree is now considered a person of interest in the Eureka shooting. The individual initially detained by the Eureka Police Department on parole violations is not a focus of the investigation at this time. Detectives continue to seek any information that may further the investigation. ●

Intern Unrest

Regulators are slowly pushing back against unpaid internships By Grant Scott-Goforth

12 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 30, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

ehind her big wooden desk, bathed in green light reflecting off a rhododendron outside her window, Joy Soll tells business after business that what they want is illegal. “Many employers — if they can get away with it — will try to get unpaid interns,” she said. Soll is the internship coordinator for Humboldt State University’s Career Center, overseeing the university’s non-academic internship listings. She is the person who recruits businesses to offer internships, and who educates them about what’s OK and what’s not. Though federal and state regulators have been pushing to stop the practice, Soll said she still gets calls from interested businesses thinking “maybe I can get these excited students to do my work for me” — for nothing. Soll, who started at the career center in 2011, said she was “genteel” with those people at first — but now she tells them without hesitation that what they’re looking for is illegal. And most of the time, at least with local businesses, she can convince them to hire a paid intern. After all, most student interns only work six, 10, 20 hours a week — usually for minimum wage. It’s larger, non-local companies that decide against listing paid internships — companies used to the old ways, Soll said. “They’ve been doing it for years.” Balancing on a large rubber ball in lieu of a chair, Soll talked exuberantly about her work and about Springboard, the online job database she manages. She sifted through Springboard posts pending approval until she found one submitted by Warner Music Group. The “major music company” — as it’s described on its website – had posted an ad offering 300 unpaid internships. That’s illegal, at first glance. But at the bottom of the post, a technicality: “Must receive college credit.” “They’re making sure they’re in compliance, but they’re getting around paying their students,” Soll said. “That’s ridiculous. They probably have tons of money.” Soll — who approves each listing before it can go on Springboard — said with posts like that, the burden of qualifying for college credit is on the student. “It’s not illegal — it’s a loophole,” she said. “I think it’s inexcusable. I probably won’t post this.” It’s against the law to use unpaid laborers in the United States. But by all accounts, the practice of hiring unpaid

interns — often eager college kids — has grown immensely in the last 20 years. A National Association of Colleges and Employers poll from 2012 shows that 55 percent of graduating college seniors held internships — hundreds of thousands of young women and men nationwide. That’s up from 17 percent of students who held internships in 1992, according to a study reported in the New York Times. But federal and state regulators aren’t doing much to ensure that interns get either a heavy dose of learning or a paycheck in exchange for their labor, prompting journalists at the nonprofit ProPublica to put out a nationwide call asking students about their internship experiences (see sidebar, page 14). There have been a few newsmaking violations, many concentrated around the media industry. The production company behind the Charlie Rose Show settled a lawsuit out of court late last year after agreeing to pay 189 former interns up to $250,000 in back wages. Another suit filed against the Hearst Corp. by a former Harper’s Bazaar intern was recently tossed out of class-action status by a judge. Back in 2010, some government internships had become so coveted that interns were paying companies in Washington, D.C., thousands of dollars for guaranteed positions, the Washington Post reported. Federal guidelines detail when a company is allowed to have an unpaid intern. The gist is simple: An internship is not a job; it must benefit the intern, not the business; and it can’t displace paid workers. But in a time of high unemployment, employers continue to seek free labor while potential employees — including HSU students — are being told internships are a crucial step in landing a job.

In California,

the state doesn’t have the money or the tools to enforce the labor laws that define unpaid internships, according to a state regulator. David Balter, staff counsel for Division of Labor Standards Enforcement, said he couldn’t even estimate how many unpaid internships his department investigates. “I think there’s a l ot of it going on,” he said. His agency gets around 50,000 complaints a year about unpaid or underpaid wages, he estimates, but the state has no system to differentiate unpaid internships from other wage disputes. “We don’t keep statistics — unfortu-

nately,” Balter said. “Controlling the numbers and seeing what’s going on would be very useful.” Balter recalled a pair of notable cases from the last several years. Oddball Film and Video, an archival footage company based in San Francisco, was cited for nearly $250,000 in fines in December for using interns who should have been getting paid. The company has appealed the citation and no settlement has been reached so far. In 2010, French Laundry — an upscale restaurant in Napa County that regularly makes best-of restaurant lists worldwide — was dinged with a $58,000 citation for failing to itemize and pay wages to interns it put to work in its kitchen. Based on the work the interns were doing, they should have been classified as employees, Balter said. “Obviously we’re trying to fix the situation when we find one, where people are not being paid minimum wage when they’re entitled to it,” Balter said. “There are situations where it’s perfectly proper to utilize an unpaid intern — it’s supposed to be a situation where someone’s getting an exposure and an experience with a lot of supervision and mentoring. That requires a lot of time and it can actually be draining on the resources of an employer. It shouldn’t be a cost benefit to an employer.”

Toiling as an intern

without pay is only allowed if a student earns college credit. Campuses in the California State University system have internship programs to help students get credit, and some university departments have a staff member dedicated to coordinating internships. At HSU, about 200 students took part in academic internships this spring, according to Annie Bolick-Floss, the director of HSU’s Center for Service Learning and Academic Internships. Many of those internships are tied to service learning classes — common in the psychology, business and education departments — that require internship hours in addition to the normal course load. Students receive credit with the approval of a teacher or department. “‘Internships’ is this huge word that covers a vast array of experiences,” BolickFloss said. And while it’s legal to have students work solely for credit (and the experience), not all for-credit internships are unpaid. Some of those 200 internships came with scholarships or offered an end-of-the-semester stipend, Bolick-Floss said, although she wasn’t sure how many. They’re still legally considered unpaid if the intern is not earning an hourly minimum wage. continued on next page

continued from previous page HSU’s school of business arranges unpaid internships for qualified juniors and seniors and pays them $2,500 at the end of the program — if they are successful. That money comes from a Smullin Foundation grant. Others frown on payment. BolickFloss said the national agency that accredits HSU’s school of social work doesn’t allow paid internships for credit, so the department only arranges unpaid internships. After businesses demonstrate their workplaces are safe and agree to carry general liability, the university works with

them to ensure the experience is educational — “so a student’s not counting paperclips,” she said. HSU is one of many schools trying to convince students to find internships early and often. The post-college job search is more competitive than ever, and Joy Soll says students are catching on. “We have a lot of students who are hard workers who want to learn and want work experience,” she said. Students are realizing that a college degree often isn’t enough to compete for a dream job anymore.

And students keep on lining

up for opportunities. HSU juniors Anna Rhoads and Rachael Londer both wrapped up unpaid internships this semester with PowerSave Green Campus, an energy awareness nonprofit that operates on campuses around the U.S. Both earned college credit for the internship, and both juggled the internships and part time jobs with full time schoolwork. For Rhoads — who gets some financial support from her parents — it wasn’t an easy balance.

“I felt like I wasn’t able to put a lot of effort into my internship,” she said. Still, the work was rewarding and confirmed that she wanted to continue doing outreach, she said, so she didn’t mind going unpaid. Londer, an environmental policy junior, enjoyed the work but had frustrations with the internship. “It was an interesting experience because there are five other team members and they all got paid — except me and Anna,” Londer said. “And we essentially did a similar job. You have to pay your dues. After two semesters of unpaid work

Help ProPublica Investigate By Blair Hickman and Jeremy B. Merrill, ProPublica

s part of its investigation into the use of interns around the U.S., ProPublica is hoping to raise funds to hire an intern of its own. The organization is asking for donations through Kickstarter — an online, crowdsourced fundraising company — to send an intern to college campuses around the country to gather stories from former interns. The intern’s work will complement ProPublica’s investigation.

ince the financial crash, jobs have held a top spot in public discussion. But among all the employment talk, one sector of the workforce has consistently received relatively little attention: interns. In the past few decades, the number of internships in the United States has ballooned. One recent study found that just over half of graduating college seniors had held some sort of internship. That’s more than double the rate another study found two decades ago. But legal protection for interns, particularly those who are unpaid, hasn’t kept pace with this rapidly emerging workforce. That’s why we’re turning our eyes to internships in the U.S. There are six criteria that must be met for an internship in the for-profit sector to qualify to be unpaid under federal law. One of the key criteria is that the position must be of more benefit to the intern than of benefit to the company. Companies can’t just use interns to replace regular employees.

The Department of Labor may examine internships during investigations of an employer’s compliance with wage standards and record-keeping provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act, according to a spokesperson. But Dr. Philip Gardner, director of the Collegiate Employment Research Institute at Michigan State University, says the government’s enforcement efforts have been passive. “You have to file a complaint for them to act,” he said. “The rules are there. But in the scheme of things, the [Department of Labor] wouldn’t spend a lot of time heading out to employers.” The agency receives only a handful of complaints per year, said the spokesperson. As the New York Times has reported, a few states have also begun investigations and fined employers. Ross Perlin, author of Intern Nation, said he’s heard mixed reports about how responsive the Department of Labor is to complaints. “In fairness to the Department of Labor, they require political will to go after things like this,” he said. “My impression is that there are people there who get it. But they have issues around their budget and what they can do.” “Do I think they could do more?” said Perlin. “Yes, ideally.” In the past few years, unpaid interns

you build that relationship. I thought it was the necessary requirement to get hired, even though it didn’t seem fair to me.” PowerSave Project Manager Ellie Kim said the organization’s unpaid interns really aren’t doing the same work as the paid interns. They avoid a host of managerial duties that paid interns have to deal with, she said, and PowerSave is aware that forcredit interns are essentially volunteering their time. “In terms of the workload we don’t have the same expectations,” she said. “The for-credit internships are just op-

It’s not like we’re looking to get free labor.” PowerSave has funding to support one 40-hour-a-week position at each campus it serves, which is usually split among four to six students. Because demand was so high for the paid internships, PowerSave designed the program so students could earn credit working with the limited number of paid interns on sustainability projects. Plus, Kim said, there’s an application and hiring process for the paid position, so the best applicant gets the job. For Londer, putting in the time paid off. She made the cut to be one of PowerSave’s paid internships in the fall semester. “Even if I didn’t I would have probably continued working with them,” she said. “I feel like they do a lot of good stuff.” While a paycheck is nice — and necessary, for some — for HSU graduate Olivia Cruz the right internship is more valuable than the income. Cruz, a 2011 HSU political science graduate, said her current unpaid internship is far more rewarding than a prior paid one. She was excited for her first postcollege internship at a nonprofit organiza-

tion (which she declined to name) in Long Beach, Calif. — at $10 an hour. “I think that coming out of college I was really idealistic — I wanted to work for a nonprofit. I expected something different from the paid internship and I didn’t get it,” Cruz said. Most of the two-month internship was spent doing mundane office work — partly because her supervisor was new to the nonprofit as well.

Breathless By Barry Evans

n June 8, 2009, Stéphane Mifsud set a new “static apnea” world record: 11 minutes 35 seconds. The 37-year-old Frenchman beat the previous record by a full 1 minute and 23 seconds, setting a very high bar for future competitors. Static apnea is what most of us would call “holding our breath,” the sort of thing you might have done at age 12 to prove you’re cool. I was your classic last-to-be-picked kid when it came to team sports, but when it came to breathing, I could literally hold my own. My record stands at over three minutes — not quite in the same league as Mifsud. The rules for competitive static apnea are pretty straightforward: You simply hold your breath underwater for as long as possible, no pre-competition oxygen allowed. This differs from the Guinness World Record rules, which allow the use of oxygen in preparation, enabling competitors to essentially double their period of breathlessness. On average, we take about 12 breaths per minute. Exertion causes the body to automatically speed up that rate, while deep relaxation or meditation slows it down. If we consciously hold our breath, something happens at about the one-minute mark that causes us to take another breath. That “something” is still debated among researchers. Until recently, the usual reason given was that our urge to breathe is triggered by the increase of carbon dioxide in our blood. As we metabolize oxygen, we produce carbon dioxide. At a certain CO2 to O2 ratio, the brain’s survival mechanism kicks in and we breathe, whether we want to or not. The odd thing about this explanation is that our lungs typically hold sufficient oxygen for about four minutes, so why do we need to breathe much earlier than that? More recently (as discussed in the April 2012 issue of Scientific American), it’s been speculated that involuntary inhala-

18 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, MAY 30, 2013 • northcoastjournal.com

tion may have more to do with messages sent to the brain by the diaphragm, which is tightened when we breathe in. After it has been contracted for what the brain deems is too long, breathing just happens. The debate over what causes our involuntary urge to breathe has implications for “free divers” who descend deep in the ocean without SCUBA apparatus. They typically hyperventilate immediately before diving, which lowers the level of carbon dioxide in the bloodstream. Together with our innate “mammalian diving reflex” — which automatically lowers our rate of heartbeat and constricts our capillaries when we’re underwater — this allows them to dive deep and long. The world depth record for “constant weight apnea without fins” stands at more than 300 feet deep! Hyperventilation can, however, be fatally dangerous, since it fools the body into thinking it does not need oxygen by artificially lowering CO2 bloodstream levels (“hypocapnia”) without increasing the amount of oxygen in the body. This low-oxygen condition of cerebral hypoxia can cause a person to pass out. If that happens underwater, the victim drowns quietly without any warning signs. Free divers aren’t the only ones at risk in water. Hyperventilation prior to breath-hold pool laps can lead, rather easily, to this dangerous condition. Nature gave us our breath reflex for a reason, and bodies can only tolerate being overridden by minds to a limited extent. Whether you’re a free diver, a lap swimmer or a kid trying to prove your courage: Never hyperventilate! l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo. com) believes our current land-based existence is a brief two-dimensional hiatus between emerging from the oceans 400 million years ago and adapting to living in space.

Not Normal

A different kind of musical at NCRT, plus next season lineups By William S. Kowinski stagematters@northcoastjournal.com

n the musical Next to Normal, now onstage at North Coast Repertory Theatre in Eureka, Diana is a wife and mother who is being treated for mental illness. The story follows her treatment and how it affects her husband Dan and her teenage daughter Natalie, as well as Natalie’s relationship with her boyfriend Henry. Then there’s Gabe, the son Diana sees as a teenager but who in fact died as an infant. So you should know going in that this is not exactly Anything Goes. Next to Normal (music by Tom Kitt, book and lyrics by Brian Yorkey) was prob-

ably the most celebrated new musical in New York since Rent. It began in 2002 with workshops and eventually opened on Broadway in 2009, where it ran for almost two years. It won multiple Tonys and the Pulitzer Prize, a rare honor for a musical. Though the play is billed as a rock musical, in this production especially it’s more of a pop music opera. The script is mostly sung, with the arias and various vocal combinations of an opera. With a small instrumental ensemble backstage, no body microphones for the singers and low-keyed lighting, this NCRT production takes a subdued approach. Without the raucous

qualities of rock, there’s a contemporary pop feel, with catchy melodies and incisive lyrics (plus some bathetic ones). So the emphasis falls on the singers, who were remarkably accomplished already on opening night. Their voices soared and blended with apparently effortless dexterity. Music director Dianne Zuleger prepared them well, especially since director Tom Phillips set a brisk pace for the action. Andrea Zvaleko plays Diana with a strong voice and understated passion. Her mercurial moments meet the solid guardedness of Kevin Sharkey’s Dan, until his feelings quietly erupt. Brandy Rose is the teenage daughter Natalie, who moves swiftly through adolescent responses, at times mirroring what her mother is going through. Gino Bloomberg plays a dangerously charismatic Gabe, an illusion who insists he is real, and in terms of being a crucial character to his mother and in this story, he is. In smaller but still important and wellsung roles, Luke Sikora is the sweet stoner who becomes a rock of stability for Natalie, and Alex Moore plays the two doctors who apply modern medicine and psychotherapy with mixed results. As a story, this play is mindful of predecessors both in depicting a family under stress (suggesting that society is itself insane), and in addressing mental illness. Nailing Diana’s illness to a specific precipitating event is dramatically efficient, though it may also be oversimplifying. It’s a delicate dance between touching the typical bases and portraying an individual family, but that seems inherent in the subject. The play ends with decisions but refuses easy resolution. Even in terms of what came before, not everyone will find the ending satisfying, though it does include affirmation (the last song promises “there will be light”) with the determination to live “close enough to normal to get by.” The subject of mental illnesses and treatment in the family are probably resonant for many members of an average audience. Those who take the emotional journey of this play will likely have a lot to talk about.

The excellent backing instrumentalists are Jonathan Webster (piano), Charlie Sleep (guitar), Bobby Amirkhan (electric bass) and Melissa Gussin (percussion). Kyle Handziak designed the effective set, Calder Johnson the lighting, Jenneveve Hood the costumes. Next to Normal plays at North Coast Rep Fridays and Saturdays through June 22. North Coast Rep has announced its upcoming 30th anniversary season, one that shakes up the usual format. It begins in September with the classic Kaufman and Hart ensemble comedy You Can’t Take It With You. The first of the traditional two musicals in a season is You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown, which is also the holiday show in November. But then there’s something different. A pair of Greek classics play together in January: the most famous tragedy of them all, Oedipus the King by Sophocles, and a new translation of a political comedy by Aristophanes, Women in Congress. Then for the first time in a while, there’s no Shakespeare in the spring — or rather there’s The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (Abridged) (Revised) in March, followed by the musical Les Miserables and what’s been called a lost American classic, the 19th century drama The Poor of New York by Dion Boucicault. Brad Hills, the new executive director of Ferndale Repertory Theatre, has announced that its new season will have a common theme: “Family, Friends, Ferndale!” First there’s a trio of classics with a small town setting: Thorton Wilder’s Our Town in October, Meredith Wilson’s The Music Man in November, and another Kaufman and Hart comedy, The Man Who Came to Dinner in January. Then the musical Monty Python’s Spamalot opens in March, and the comedy The Dixie Swim Club in June. With these selections, Hills is reportedly responding to dissatisfaction among longtime Ferndale Rep financial supporters. These “MainStage” shows may be augmented by smaller-scaled productions, though how that might work has not yet been announced. l

Dona Blakely – After the Daze

pull-out A RT sect i on

THE TRIPTYCH “EARTH AND SKY” IS AMONG THE WORKS DONA BLAKELY PRODUCED AS SHE MOURNED THE LOSS OF HER SON, RUSSELL. IT’S ON EXHIBIT AT PIANTE DURING ARTS ALIVE!

By Ken Weidermann

s an artist, Dona Blakely has run out of patience. The environment is running away from us, wars of all kinds crowd around and technology distracts us to no end. Blakely is tired of it all and feels like we need to make a change. Who can spare a moment for sappy little bunny videos or cute little kitten paintings when the global fan is splattering shit everywhere? When you add the loss of a child onto all of this, it becomes overwhelming. For Blakely, that staggering, shocked sense of daze is all too real. Since the death of her son Russell last year, her anger has just begun to wane, and she’s eager to let you know how important it is to get things right. Now. At the same time, her art builds in intentional pauses to let us know that “there’s always room for beauty.” This duality is one key to understanding her new show at Piante Gallery, on display during Arts Alive! “Everything is Fine” delivers startling truths, sweet secrets and indelible images that will leave you wanting more. The title of the show is a palpable attempt at moving on, yet the intensity of Blakely’s experience remains evident. “Everything is Fine!” Blakely bursts with a wry cackle. “You say it when your kid

dies and people ask how are things.” Life can seem unbearable, but at the same time “you go out in the garden and there are bees flying around and it’s beautiful.” In that moment, “the river is running, and everything really is fine.” Her new show powerfully reveals both of these conflicting moments all at once. Viewers familiar with Blakely’s work will notice a strong graphic element to her new pieces. “I feel an urgency,” she says, “I need to say plainly what I think.” One piece, Blakely’s favorite, features the Greek goddess Gaia. Emerging from a dreamlike purple-gray background flooded with flames and smoke, “Princess Gaia” offers a “Pouch of Possibilities; a Pocket Full of Choices.” The goddess appears on a bed of crimson. Human chromosomes drift above and remind us that we are the ones who must choose what to do next. The earth is a self-regulating organism, eliminating things that seek to destroy it, and we puny humans don’t have much time to make the right choice. Simultaneously, the earth also provides an abundance of life-giving bounty. “Earth and Sky,” a triptych accompanying “Gaia,” allows viewers to fill in the blanks that Gaia generously offers. Enveloped in Blakely’s characteristic, sanded-through layers and glimmering with silver leaf, the apple tree image also represents a potent

symbol of life-giving fruit. Invariably, that fruit doesn’t last long. Beauty is shortlived, and Blakely has experienced this ephemerality firsthand. To honor Russell and give his friends and family a peek at his artistic development, Blakely is sharing her most recent show with her son. Among her paintings, viewers will find a sensitive work in honor of Russell, as well as a handful of photographs he took before his untimely death. It’s a way for those who knew Russell to find one last glimpse of his personality, his eye, his life. His photos depict a skilled style, and it’s obvious that Russell had experienced his fair share of art. “I just love the color in that one,” Blakely says of a formalistic shot of an abandoned interior space. Blakely doesn’t know where all of the photos were taken, but viewers will recognize scenes from downtown Eureka and rural Humboldt County. “He was a member of many different groups,” she says, “most of whom didn’t interact with each other.” With this view, perhaps it is fitting that many of the prints demonstrate a nuanced understanding of layers. A particularly striking one focuses on the interior of an abandoned building. Peeling posts adorn the cracked frame of a door, and inside a lonely loveseat sits, illuminated from behind by the shattered

light of a broken window. There are dates on some of these photos, lending a domestic feel to many of them. The canary yellow numbers remind us of our impermanence — that our time on earth is finite. The presence of the dates almost demands that we pay attention to time passing and that we make the most of it while we can. In her show, some of Blakely’s paintings express a desire to link her environmental sensitivity to Russell’s younger generation. With the deliberate inclusion of QR codes in a few pieces, she is “trying to make a bridge for the people who have their heads stuck in technology.” It’s quite the juxtaposition to find such digital elements in decidedly organic work, but the idea is noble. With the right device, viewers will be able to use their smart phones to witness a video of Blakely explaining the meaning of some works, as well as another video that captures the location of one painting’s inspiration. Nature and technology, paintings and photographs, young and old, life and death. A continuum of dualities are part of our existence on this earth. While they may challenge us with their elusive links, there’s no reason to run from them. Life has given us a chance, and we must respect what little time we have. Most of all, we must do something with it. ●

On Bob

Sizzling Summer Fest and A Word About O By Andrew Goff

music@northcoastjournal.com

BOB DORAN’S FACEBOOK PAGE.

First off, hi.

Secondly, it would be disingenuous in a community this size to act as though a huge piece of this paper weren’t missing. Last week’s North Coast Journal was the first in seemingly forever to not include a page with “The Hum” emblazoned across the top. Obviously, business is not per usual. For nearly 15 years now Bob Doran has been filling the Journal’s pages with Humboldt’s color, whether through his written coverage of local music and events or by being on the scene as “the tall guy with the camera.” (Down in front, Bob.) If you need evidence of how enmeshed in North Coast life Bob is, take a scroll around his Facebook page where countless locals have laid bouquets of words to honor him. One commenter noted that his “insightful photos are the glue that binds our community.” Folks dig Bob. So, since we’re into fighting disingenuousness, let’s be real: Regardless of what it says at the top of this page, this is not The Real Hum. I worked alongside Bob for four years, occasionally attempting Hum duties when Bob was coerced into taking vacation, but I was only babysitting. Now, until Bob returns from healing after his stroke, the Journal will use various community-reflecting writers to keep you in the know. (Would you like to be one of them? Get ahold of Carrie at carrie@ northcoastjournal.com.) Hopefully it won’t be too long. We’ll keep your seat warm. Fight on, big guy.

Summah, summah, summah time

With the standard Memorial Day weekend rain endured, Humboldt looks ahead to our brand of summer — the students clear out, Arcata’s bar meat market dies down and our various rivers taunt us with sparkly come-hither looks. Want proof it’s go time? With the first weekend in June staring us in the face, this Humboldt weekend features the first event audacious enough to include “Summer” in its

local handmade craft and food booths and SoHum warmth. But you care mostly about the music, sí? This year’s lineup is full of high-energy, crowd-pleasing groups not unfamiliar to our region. For starters, SoHum will be filled with the filthy grooves of Dumpstaphunk, a legit New Orleans funk/jazz/ blues/jam ensemble celebrating its tenth year together since debuting at the 2003 New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. The band is fronted by multi-instrumentalist Ivan Neville — yes, he’s a nephew of the Brothers. Also on the bill: Well, there’s Bay Area Gypsy party rockers Diego’s Umbrella, who promote themselves as providing a “futuristic Spaghetti-Western soundtrack.” I’ll add “on crack” because it fits, it’s easy and why not? Then there’s Moksha, which has added The All-Star Horns to its brand of low key funk since the last time you’ve seen it. Who else? Sure, electronica producer Gaudi will bring heavy beat and bassline-driven soundscapes. And then of course instant funmaker Yogoman Burning Band, which is really trying to secure the title for “Humboldt’s Favorite Out of Town Band,” isn’t it? A quick list of other performer highlights: Blackberry Bushes Stringband, Joanne Rand, Rupa and the April Fishes, Bayonics, El Radio Fantastique and, geez, mateel.org, people. Check it. One new added feature this year will be the Summertronica e-music tent featuring local DJs, lights and good vibes, man. Admission to the festival is $15 per day or $25 for both days, which is really a steal. (Not that you Mateelians should raise the price or anything. Just sayin’.)

change. Yes, it probably could have been announced more gracefully. But sometime in the last few weeks word crept out online that none other than Lyrics Born is O-Fest’s musical headliner? How did that slip by us? You would be hard pressed to find an LB show that costs $10 anywhere. So, there’s that. One more Oyster Fest note: Rumor goin’ round is that eleventeen-time KWPT The Point’s Shuck and Swallow raw oyster lovin’ champions Connor Eckholm and Aiden Semingson are taking a year off from dominating the competition. (Will and I took those guys on one year. Two words: Miss. Take.) What that means is that there an opportunity for glory — and tummy ache — potentially yours for the taking. You and a teammate can sign up for that yummy fame grab by calling DJ Carole Ann at 786-5978.

Other stuff

Read elsewhere in this paper about Humboldt’s unprecedented two film premieres — After Earth on Thursday and Willow Creek on Friday, respectively, … Arts Alive on Saturday, of course. … This Sunday the Eureka High School Players are giving a Nintendo-themed performance of a Super Mario Musical to raise funds for a trip to Scotland. … Seeing as themed dance parties seem to work so well in HumCo, DJ Knutz will tear through four hours of disco at HumBrews on Thursday. … More gems in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Eight Days a Week calendar and online. ●

Summer doesn’t officially start until June 21, but we don’t mind if the Mateel Community Center kicks off the season a little early with the SUMMER ARTS AND MUSIC FESTIVAL this weekend in Benbow. The festival has something for all ages, from a beer tent to a bouncy house. Musical groups will be playing on four stages from 9:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. on June 1 and 2, including Alice DiMicele (pictured), Ivan Neville’s Dumpstaphunk and Moksha and the All Star Horns. PHOTO BY CORTNEY ERSKINE.

It’s difficult for kids of any age to resist a giant slide and bouncy house. So why not give in and join the Yurok tribe at its annual SPRING FLING? Everyone is invited to this event aimed at bringing families together. Activities include traditional arts and crafts and educational booths and will be held on Saturday at the Weitchpec Tribal Office and Sunday at the Klamath Tribal Office. Traditional food will be provided.

A Midsummer’s Night Dream. 8 p.m. Eureka High School Auditorium, 1915 J St. Romantic comedy ballet presented by Upper Studio and Humboldt Dance Alli-

For those who were turned away from the standing-room-only performances of A Midsummer’s Night Dream in 2011, you are in luck. Director Heather Sorter has restaged her original ballet — a dance version of Shakespeare’s romantic comedy of errors — for the large venue of Eureka High Auditorium. This soiree into the Bard’s land of enchantments crosses the great cultural divide of toe shoes versus barefooted dancers. Sorter mixed it up by inviting Bonnie Hossack, a modern dancer, and Leslie Castellano, an aerial-silk artist, to choreograph sections of the show. Flurries of winged fairies, bona-fide ballerinas, court entertainers dangling overhead, a pack of randy hounds skulking in real fog, sword fighting, classical lovers’ pas

Into the Artist’s Lair From a high wall overlooking my kitchen, the Angel of Purses and Keys monitors my distraction and does her best to keep me on track. Or at least that’s what I would imagine she does if I were prone to angels. But just looking at her in the morning makes me consider: black purse in left hand, set of keys in right, smart red heels, red dress, brown hair, massive white wings. She stands on black-and-white tiles at her open front door. Behind her, beyond the tidy rooftops of Manila, puffy clouds of steam drift sideways from the (now-dead) pulp mill. “Be prepared as you walk into the world each day,” she seems to say. Mostly, her goofy aspect makes me smile. I bought this colorful small painting directly from the artist, Joy Dellas, during Open Studios one year. I had thumbed through stacks of unframed work in Dellas’ cramped, colorful studio till the angel appeared. There were others (amid the winning cats and stolid dogs) — including a winged male holding a hammer and toolbox, which someone nabbed before I could get it. Dellas told

“ANGEL OF PURSES AND KEYS” PAINTING BY JOY DELLAS

me she had painted my angel literally to remind herself not to forget her purse and keys. I took my painting home, glued it to handmade fuchsia paper and a recycled wood frame, and hung it up.

book Tenth of December George Saunders Random House Few American short story writers have garnered as much respect or as many accolades as George Saunders has over the last couple of decades. A darling of The New Yorker and a frequent recipient of national story writing awards, Saunders has come to epitomize certain aspects of the turn-of-the-century American psyche. With his 1996 debut, CivilwarLand in Bad Decline, and in the collections that followed, Saunders has established himself as a satirist whose irony brings the idiosyncrasies of late capitalism into unflinching focus. Tenth of December further solidifies this reputation through stories like “My Chivalric Fiasco,” a variation on the signature Saunders plot, depicting a jaded, long-suffering worker employed in a bizarre, symbolically fraught theme park. More notable, however, is that Saunders’ most recent collection represents a significant expansion of his range, providing evidence for his continued growth as a writer. Saunders sharpened his eye for the absurdist elements of the corporate workplace while working as a technical writer during the 1990s, and many of his stories seem to draw directly from that experience. (See “Exhortation” from this collection, a story written as a stream-of-consciousness, euphemismobscured memo from boss to office.) Others of his stories might be termed speculative fiction, exaggerating facets of our present to take us a few steps into a thoroughly American, somewhat dystopian future. It is in a third type of story, however, that Saunders’ growth as a writer is most visible: character pieces that showcase his increasing ability to write in a broad array of registers and voices. Tenth of December is remarkable because nearly every story in the collection is an act of sustained and thoroughly compelling ventriloquism. The best qualities of Saunders’ unique voice remain intact, but in the most successful stories, like the title story, we are utterly immersed in his characters and apt to forget who is speaking through them. Admittedly, these ornately developed voices sometimes are a liability, occasionally becoming too overwrought and causing the narrative to buckle beneath their weight. But these hiccups are few and easily overlooked. Saunders has repeatedly tried to adopt the posture of a cynic, wryly calling our attention to the absurd and the hypocritical. But Tenth of December shows, more than any other Saunders collection, that he is not a true cynic, even at his darkest. And no story is darker than “Escape from Spiderhead,” told from the perspective of a murderer imprisoned in a research facility where experimental drugs are tested on inmates. The story is at once funny and desperate, but the act of redemption that closes it exemplifies what has always differentiated Saunders from other satirists: a deep reservoir of compassion for his subjects. — Anthony Correale

Flying in the face of physics: Fast and Furious 6.

Get Torqued!

Fast cars beat out a bad hangover while kid visuals get totally Epic By John J. Bennett, Dev Richards and Ryan Burns filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

FAST & FURIOUS 6. Since director Justin Lin took over this then-dying series with The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift (2006), it has become one of the biggest, silliest and most satisfying franchises in movies. This time out, L.A. motorhead-turnedinternational super-criminal Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) and his crew have comfortably situated themselves in nations that lack extradition treaties (financed, of course, by the $100 million Rio caper they pulled off in Fast 5). Into this life of uneasy luxury barrels Hobbs (Dwayne Johnson), a federal agent built like a brick shithouse. At the screening I attended, when Toretto squared up next to Hobbs the crowd let out a collective yelp of satisfaction. I don’t blame them. Hobbs wants the gang to help him apprehend some high-octane super criminals who have been rocketing around Europe, stealing classified military hardware. In exchange, he’ll turn over the whereabouts of Dom’s presumed-dead soul-mate Letty (Michelle Rodriguez). The team reassembles in London, bankrolled by the U.S. government, and sets to buying cars and raising hell. In light of how enjoyable this entry is, my complaints are few and relatively minor. More than ever before, Fast & Furious 6 trades exciting automotive sequences for fisticuffs and explosions. There are a few fun racing segments, but they feel forced

into the narrative. Plus, they’re mostly overthe-top, computer-generated things. While exciting and fun, they’re unbelievable enough to take me out of the story. And the closing set-piece, which involves a cargo plane, cars and lots of grappling hook cannons, is so frantically paced, dimly lit and overlong that it risks spoiling the two hours of excitement preceding it. The Fast & Furious franchise has become a punching bag for movie nerds, but I’d argue that none of the current crop of blockbusters is as self-aware, or as focused on fun. And the teaser for the next installment (during the end credits) promises even more of the same. PG13. 130m. — John J. Bennett THE HANGOVER PART III. It’s hard to be disappointed when your expectations are extremely low, but in the third Hangover movie, writer/director Todd Phillips proves that if you try hard enough you can truly carve out a new low for yourself. With the exception of the first 15 minutes, The Hangover Part III offers little more than predictable slapstick. Zach Galifianakis returns as Alan. Following the death of his father (Jeffrey Tambor), the “wolfpack” reunites in an effort to commit Alan to a psychiatric facility. Their trip is interrupted when they get caught in the middle of a dispute between two world-class thieves, Mr. Chow (Ken Jeong) and Marshall (John Goodman). In true road movie fashion, one mishap follows another, and eventually continued on next page

continued from previous page their misadventures lead them back to Las Vegas. Evidently this was an excuse for Phillips and his mediocre writing team to insert shenanigans scrapped during the first film. The ensemble dynamic is thinner this time out, with nearly all of the screen time devoted to Stu (Ed Helms) and Alan. Bradley Cooper’s bland reprisal of Phil provides a too-obvious counterpoint to Jeong’s overbearing and uncomfortably stereotypical Mr. Chow. There’s a yin and yang joke in there somewhere, but unlike the film’s writers I won’t blur the lines between ethnicities for the sake of a weak joke. Galifianakis and Helms are dependably comical and provide nearly all of the film’s redeeming moments, though such moments are few and far between. The silver lining to this cloud of disappointment is the rumor that this is the final installment in the series. No doubt the cast will go on to bigger and better things, but something tells me Phillips (Road Trip, Due Date) will make another road movie. As for me, I’m making that common post-hangover vow: “Never again.” R. 100m. EPIC. Given the choice between 2D and 3D, I nearly always choose 2D. Not only is it cheaper, but I generally don’t find the effects worth the nausea. Epic is the first film I’ve ever regretted not seeing in 3D (something I plan to remedy ASAP). Even in two dimensions, though, Chris Wedge’s film is visually dazzling. The animators have taken great care to envelop you in the world they’ve created, and they succeed masterfully. As is often the case with animated family films, Epic appeals visually to the children, but it risks leaving adults mired in a bog of boredom. Compared to the originality and spectacle of the visuals, the plot is dull and recycled. Following the death of her mother, M.K. (Amanda Seyfried) moves back in with her estranged father, Bomba (Jason Sudeikis). Though he’s excited to have her back, Bomba’s attention is fixed on proving the existence of tiny forest people.

One plot point later, M.K. finds herself living among the very creatures her father is trying to find, fighting desperately to thwart the destructive plans of Mandrake (Christoph Waltz). A classic battle of good versus evil unfolds, and the forest survives to live another day. Think Fern Gully, but less heavy-handed. The banality of the plot aside, Epic doesn’t fail to entertain. Beyond the incredible animation, the cast is teeming with familiar voices that add a comedic tinge to the whole affair. Epic truly has something for every family member to enjoy – but don’t pass up the 3D. PG. 102m. — Dev Richards

NOTICE OF PROPERTY TAX DELINQUENCY AND IMPENDING DEFAULT Revenue and Taxation Code Section 3352 I, John Bartholomew, Humboldt County Tax Collector, State of California, certify as follows: That at close of business on July 1, 2013 by operation of law, any real property (unless previously tax-defaulted and not redeemed) that have any delinquent taxes, assessments, or other charges levied for the fiscal year 2012-2013, and/or any delinquent supplemental taxes levied prior to the fiscal year 2012-2013 shall be declared tax-defaulted. However, because June 30, 2013 is on a Sunday, and in accordance with State law, amounts due may be paid through the close of business on July 1, 2013. That unless the property is completely redeemed through payment of all unpaid amounts, together with penalties and fees prescribed by law or an installment plan is initiated and maintained; the property will become tax-defaulted and may be subsequently sold at a tax sale in satisfaction of the tax lien. That a detailed list of all properties remaining tax-defaulted at the close of business on July 1, 2013, and not redeemed prior to being submitted for publication, shall be published on or before September 8, 2016. That information concerning redemption or the initiation of an installment plan of redemption of tax-defaulted property will be furnished, upon request, by John Bartholomew, Humboldt County Tax Collector at 825 5th Street, Room 125, Eureka, California 95501 (707)476-2450. I certify or (declare), under penalty of perjury, that the foregoing is true and correct.

John Bartholomew Humboldt County Tax Collector

Executed at Eureka, Humboldt County, California, on May 23rd, 2013. Published in the North Coast Journal on May 30th, June 6th, and June 13th , 2013. NOTICE OF IMPENDING POWER TO SELL TAX-DEFAULTED PROPERTY Revenue and Taxation Code Section 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. 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 one or more of the criteria listed above and thus, will become subject to the tax collector’s power to sell on July 1, 2013, 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. The amount to redeem, including all penalties and fees, as of June 2013, is shown opposite the assessment/parcel number and next to the name of the assessee. PARCEL NUMBERING SYSTEM EXPLANATION The Assessor’s Parcel/Assessment Number (APN/ASMT), when used to describe property in this list, refers to the assessor’s map book, the map page, the block on the map, if applicable, and the individual parcel on the map page or in the block. The assessor’s maps and further explanation of the parcel numbering system are available in the assessor’s office.
