Terry Torgerson

Thanks for the Support Editor: I want to thank all of my friends and supporters for voting for me (NCJ Daily, June 9). It means a lot when your friends

have such confidence in you. I am proud of the fact that I spent no money in trying to get elected. Money puts the “mock” in democracy.

I will continue to educate folks as to the advantages of becoming a charter county such as being able to stand up to corporate domination through establishing local control, community rights, and the rights of nature. Also, given the dire nature of Humboldt County’s budget shortfalls, a public Bank of Humboldt County could solve many of these fiscal issues and therefore we should vigorously seek its establishment. I think we should press for solarization of our county buildings. We could have saved over $4 million in the last five years on energy costs. Community energy aggregation seems like a scam to me. We need homes for folks around here. Recently, two friends of mine, both good and dependable employees of a Garberville business, were Continued on next page »

There are lifelines on the faces of leaves tiny lacy lines of clear and flowing life life that has no major meaning; so it leans easily into the moment of itself soft green self without a need to be seen soft and lacy self without seeds bejeweled with beads of dew. It is the miniature story of me and you when we were laid in the redness of womb still no needs, no mind; no “once upon a time” had begun our separation. There in the blush of life, we were simply joined and within, within water within air within fire and earth , spinning one way and another, suspended, no up, no down, no falling, no calling out for a name to all this wonder, simply becoming simply seeing and being simply life beginning. — Tamara Jenkinson

removed from a campsite where they lived. They both had to leave the area. The business where they worked suffered. But the real tragedy is that one of these fine young men has passed away in Sonoma County. It has been reported to me that he took his own life. I am very sad about this. When are we going to abandon the “leaf blower mentality” which is the act of

blowing your leaves onto your neighbor’s yard? We can do better than this. Thank you. Bud Rogers, Redway

Fighting Big Tobacco Editor: Last March, members of United Indian Health Services’ Teen Advisory Group

(TAG) from Humboldt and Del Norte areas traveled to the state capital to meet with Sen. Mike McGuire. There, we discussed the ethical problems of marketing e-cigarettes to youth, the need to classify e-cigarettes as a tobacco product, and the myth of e-cigarettes as a cessation aide (“E-Cigarettes vs. Tobacco,” June 2). As a group, we thought McGuire was friendly, patient and understanding. He asked us

questions and didn’t interrupt us when we answered. We appreciate that he took time out of his busy day to meet with us. We knew there were six tobacco bills waiting to be signed on the governor’s desk. We wondered if our presence would make a difference. Joining youth from all over the state, in alliance with the California Youth Advocacy Network, we marched to create awareness about the health dangers of e-cigarettes and unregulated tobacco industry. We don’t think it’s fair that Big Tobacco companies keep targeting our youth. We are proud to announce that the voices of youth across California have been heard. On May 4, Gov. Brown signed bills to raise the age to 21 to purchase commercial tobacco products, as well as regulate e-cigarettes as tobacco products (NCJ Daily, June 16). The flavors in e-cigarettes have not been approved by the FDA and it may take years to do so, due to the shenanigans of the Big Tobacco Industry. People still don’t know about the dangers of e-cigarettes. Ever hear of popcorn lung? Look for us at upcoming city council meetings, including in the city of Trinidad. We will be educating the community about policy and e-cigarettes. Stone Wallace, Arcata

The Curious Case of Parcel 106-101-054

How a Florida corporation tripped over regulations during the Green Rush By Linda Stansberry

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

ine acres isn’t much when it comes to agricultural land. It’s big enough for a barn and a couple of cows. For many years, this particular parcel, tucked away off of Grizzly Bluff Road in Ferndale, sat on the market uncourted. The owners, Sally and Milton Conley, bought it for $250,000 shortly before the 2009 market crash. Sally Conley considered it a retirement investment, but as the market waned she and her husband realized it would probably sell at a great loss. Then, as the price dipped to $106,000 in November of 2015, something strange happened. Two buyers expressed interest in the land on the very same day. A bidding war started, pushing up the price. It sold for $210,000 on Dec. 7, to a newly-minted corporation headquartered in Miami, Florida. “It was really a bizarre thing,” says Conley. It was about to get even more bizarre. To understand the context of parcel 106-101-054’s surprise sale, you have to understand the speculation that was playing out across headlines and in the offices of real estate developers in the fall of 2015. In September, Legislature approved a trio of medical marijuana regulations, effectively legitimizing and regulating a booming industry that had gone unchecked for two decades. The bills established a brand new Bureau of Medical Marijuana, and mandated counties to develop individual ordinances before March 1, 2016, or cede control to the bureau. In Humboldt County, there was a mad scramble to finalize an ordinance. As the details were hammered out, there was speculation that outdoor cultivation could be limited to land zoned agriculture exclusive or rural residential agriculture. And on the other side of the

continent, a chiropractor with deep pockets took notice. On Oct. 7, 2015, TFG Ventures, LLC was officially founded. There is little information available about the company — it has no website and no associated contact information. But its principal, Dennis H. Bonneau, is a seasoned investor. A licensed chiropractor, he is listed as the principal for nine active Florida corporations, most related to health and rehabilitation. He is also principal for 11 dissolved corporations. The mysterious TFG was just his latest project. What drew Bonneau’s interest to the Ferndale parcel is unknown: He did not return multiple calls from the Journal. But his newly formed venture, under the name TFG Group, Inc., filed one of the first forms registering for commercial cannabis production with the county, date-stamped Dec. 21, 2015. The signee was not Bonneau, but one Randy Nunez. In his communications with the Journal, Nunez was tight-lipped about the young company, confirming only that he and his coworkers had been in the county for six months and that TFG Group was a mutual benefit corporation dedicated to research. A quick web search filled in some details. Nunez, like Bonneau, is from Florida and a former chief training officer at AndeGen, another Bonneau holding. In his mid-30s, Nunez is a former sergeant with the U.S. Army. The full name of the company for which Nunez is director of operations? Task Force Green. Task Force Green’s web presence is currently limited to Nunez’s Facebook page and an Instagram account. But according to social media and an event listing on Continued on next page »

The grow that wasn’t to be. Linda Stansberry

the Humboldt chapter of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Law’s website, its mission is to provide, “Clinical Research effort to discover the optimal ratio between cannabinoids to treat Veteran patients with PTSD, [minor traumatic brain injuries], or both.” And, according to all accounts, they hit the ground running. When the Journal drove past parcel 106-101-054 in early May, a shipping container sat next to an RV on the site. The container’s doors were open, leaving row after row of healthy cannabis plants illuminated by artificial light in plain sight from the road. Just beyond the container were the bare bones of a barn, its skeleton stretching hungrily into the sky. It may never be finished, and the plants may soon have to be moved. Despite having applied for a commercial cannabis permit and a building permit, TFG broke ground before either permit was approved by the county planning and building department. The county took notice of construction and cultivation after being contacted by neighbors, and on Feb. 8, TFG was served with a county stop work order. It is unknown why the contractor responsible

for excavating the site and erecting the barn, Dennis Wendt, proceeded before receiving approval. Wendt did not respond to our requests for comment. It is also unknown if TFG was aware that Wendt, who filled out the original application, had not yet received the go-ahead from the county. Ordinarily, these obstacles would be easily overcome. TFG could cool its heels, wait for the building permits to be approved and use that time to properly fill out a land use permit application for cultivation, which the county began accepting on Feb. 26. But Task Force Green and its investors hadn’t anticipated a final spanner in the works: The California Coastal Commission. Mike Pigg, the real estate agent who facilitated the sale of parcel 106-101-054, says that TFG’s investment prior to the finalization of county regulations was a gamble. “They were basing their speculation on what was coming,” says Pigg, adding that he largely refrains from opining on whether or not a property will meet guidelines, instead referring clients to the county. “They were doing their due

diligence, trying to do research. They were making good phone calls, trying to contact people.” When the Board of Supervisors adopted the Commercial Medical Marijuana Land Use Ordinance, an important caveat was included: Applications for projects located in the Coastal Zone are not being accepted. As a state entity, the California Coastal Commission has a separate process for approving commercial grows and jurisdiction over the Coastal Zone. “You have to wait another four to six months to get approval from the coastal commission,” Pigg says glumly, adding that the CCC is “bogged down.” Both he and Conley said the zoning was not a secret at the time of the sale, although the county’s map of the coastal protection zone reveals some irony. About a third of the verdant Eel River Valley, with its prime agriculture land, falls under the jurisdiction of the coastal commission. The parcel purchased and partially developed by TFG is less than a mile away from its borders. Despite the aura of uncertainty, Pigg and his cohort are busy. Agricultural land is selling at a premium, the prices steadily

ticking upward: $1.375 million for 54 acres in Myers Flat; $4.5 million for 2,357 acres in Petrolia; $22 million for a 5,000-acre ranch in Blocksburg. Pigg says most clients are looking for the same three things: flat land, water and privacy. “Even if you’re going to do something legally, you still want privacy,” he says. Nunez confirms that Task Force Green is currently looking for a new site, but has yet to find one that meets the county’s standards. It’s difficult to say what was ultimately responsible for the Floridians’ setback: Nosy neighbors, a careless contractor, bureaucratic torpor or their own heedless zeal. But their mission has received a timely boost and urgency from Washington: In May, Congress approved an amendment allowing the Department of Veteran’s Affairs to prescribe medical marijuana. And, whether or not they manage to secure their place in the green rush, they should at least recoup their investment. Parcel number 106-101-054 is up for sale again, this time for $330,000, three times its listing price just seven months ago. ●

Week in Weed

Big Brands By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

North Coast Journal. Photo Illustration by Jonathan Webster

icrosoft made some tech industry-sized waves this week with the announcement that it’s diving into the marijuana business. Before you get too excited, don’t expect to find any Windows 10 Kush in your next purchase of Microsoft Office. Nonetheless, the $290 billion multinational “broke the corporate taboo on pot,” as the New York Times put it, announcing a partnership with Los Angeles startup Kind Financials, a jack-of-all-trades company offering a range of products that includes vending-machine style marijuana kiosks. But Kind also has built track-andtrace software that it’s marketing to state and local governments that are busily crafting compliance systems for their new legal weed industries, whether they be medical or recreational. Under the partnership, Microsoft will now be offering this “seed-to-sale” tracking software with its cloud-based Azure Government, an eight-piece suite of software the tech giant offers to local and state governments. It may seem like a baby step into the weed industry, but the mere fact that one of the world’s biggest companies is willing to tie its name to the cannabis industry speaks volumes about how far national acceptance of marijuana has come in the last decade. Can iPot be far behind? ●

In another sign of marijuana’s steady encroachment on the mainstream, California’s largest political party officially endorsed the Adult Use of Marijuana Act, the November initiative that would legalize recreational use in the Golden State. If the California Democratic Party’s endorsement sounds shrug-worthy, consider that it was only six years ago that the party declined to support Proposition 19, the state’s last recreational legalization effort. Throw in statewide polls showing 60 percent of likely voters supporting the measure, plus endorsements from the

ACLU and the NAACP, and there’s reason to hope California will begin to unravel what’s been a dismal failure of a drug policy, not to mention 20 years of the Compassionate Use Act, which brought relief to some very sick people but made hypocrites out of entire communities. But before you start rolling that Cheech and Chong sized victory joint, a word of caution: Polls in April of 2010 showed 56 percent of likely voters supporting Proposition 19, which ultimately only garnered 46.5 percent of the vote. ● Two of the most famous names in marijuana culture are now being sold together. Marley Natural, the Bob-Marley-family-approved, private equity funded bud brand, is now stocking Bay Area dispensaries with cannabis products made from organic Humboldt County crops, according to NBC Bay Area. Marley Natural’s buds will come from an unnamed Humboldt County collective and are sun-grown and organic, according to the company, which didn’t respond to Journal emails seeking comment for this story. While some might celebrate the prospect of Humboldt’s finest being folded under the Marley name, it raises the question: Just what are we producing here in the Emerald Triangle, a commodity or a luxury product? Or, put a different way, are we growing the coffee beans that wind up in the cans of Folgers that retail for $4.50 or the bean that hails from the Jamaican Blue Mountains or Kona, Hawaii, and retail for $40 a half pound? If Humboldt wants to keep the name that continues to raise eyebrows the world over, the name that continues to fetch a luxury price, it seems selling out to a big brand shouldn’t be the preferred route. At the very least, Marley Natural: Humboldt Grown should be the label and one shouldn’t have to pore through the fine print to find reference of some unnamed Humboldt collective. ●

The Heart of Humboldt

From NCJ Daily

Grand Jury Blasts Board

he Humboldt County Behavioral Health Board, which is statutorily tasked with oversight of the delivery of local mental health services, has been largely ineffective, making few recommendations and failing to deliver its mandated annual reports to the Board of Supervisors, according to a recent report by the Humboldt County civil grand jury. The grand jury is recommending that the board not only submit its past due reports but that it also undergo “training to fully understand its duties and roles, and to proceed proactively to carry out the requirements” of state law. The grand jury’s report notes that the 15-member behavioral heath board is made up of “well-intentioned” people who are “well versed” on mental health issues, but it says the volunteer board members are “overwhelmed due to the amount of work.” That work, according to the report, consisted of sitting through monthly meetings in which administrators with the county Department of Health and Human Services and its Mental Health Branch made presentations. “The board did not proactively engage in making recommendations, advise (the board of supervisors) or evaluate procedures and programs,” the report states. The report notes that this passivity continued even after a county consultant, W. Brown Creative Partners, issued a re-

port that was critical of the culture within the department and “described serious and ‘special problems’ within the mental health branch.” It also continued even as most of the branch’s psychiatrists resigned in 2015, setting off a widely publicized crisis within the department. Grand jury interviews, the report states, “confirmed that there was no discussion of either the Brown Assessment Study or the mass resignation of physicians by the (Behavioral Health Board).” The grand jury’s recommendation is that the behavioral health board expand its membership, catch up on its past-due reports, undergo training and “study and then proceed to proactively carry out the requirements” of state law. Further, the grand jury is recommending that the board of supervisors more actively oversee the behavioral health board and that it ensure the behavioral health board has “sufficient resources and authority” to fulfill its duties. The report notes that nearly one in six adults in California have some mental health need, and that one in 20 suffer from serious mental illness that makes it difficult to carry out “major life activities.” That number jumps to one in 13 for children. “These figures clearly indicate the need for effective mental health programs in the state,” it concludes. — Thadeus Greenson

Piecemeal Transparency Most cops now have cameras but who gets to see the footage remains murky By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

hen Arcata police officers Matthew O’Donovan and Don Arminio pulled into the Shell gas station on the corner of 14th and G streets at about 6:45 p.m. on May 17, the cameras in their patrol cars were rolling. Under a cloudless early evening sky, the cameras caught everything that reportedly followed: The suspect, 26-year-old Joshua Hoffman, drinking from an open container in the parking lot, Hoffman aggressively swinging a metal cane over his head as officers approached, the officers commanding him to stop and, ultimately, Arminio shooting Hoffman four times when the San Diego man charged in his direction. When the multi-agency Critical Incident Response Team turned the findings of its investigation over to Humboldt County District Attorney Maggie Fleming last week, it included the footage from dash cameras in the officers’ patrol cars, as well as that of a Humboldt State University police unit that arrived as backup. Additionally, investigators included footage

from about a half dozen security cameras sprinkled throughout the gas station. The footage — some taken from the dash cameras designed to collect evidence and lend transparency in precisely these kinds of high-stakes incidents, and the rest from private security cameras — reportedly combines to offer a complete view of the event, from the moment Hoffman entered the Shell station acting erratically to the time he was loaded in an ambulance almost an hour later. (Hoffman survived the shooting.) Video from police patrol car dash cameras is also the central piece of evidence in another officer-involved-shooting currently under review by Fleming and her office, that of 20-year-old Killian Shane O’Quinn, who was killed by a California Highway Patrol Officer during a November, 2015 shootout in Eureka. In both cases, Fleming is expected to use the footage as her primary piece of evidence to determine if she believes any of the officers involved in the shootings acted criminally and, if so, what charges are warranted. As evidence-collecting tools, the video cameras mounted either on patrol car dashboards or near their rearview mirrors

are clearly working. But when it comes to transparency, another stated goal of the seemingly ever-growing world of police video technology (Eureka police fully deployed bodyworn cameras throughout the department in April), one could argue the technology hasn’t delivered as promised. To be clear, that’s no fault of the technology. Rather, it’s the result of a technology being governed by records laws written decades before its invention and a Legislature that’s been slow to react, leaving California’s 58 counties and court systems to navigate the situation on their own. The results have been predictably piecemeal, but the undeniable trend is that counties and departments are opting not to release video footage of critical incidents, fearful of public backlash, civil liability and simply setting a precedent that would come back to bite them down the road. Meanwhile, as public opinion polls indicate the average person wants to see police agencies using video technology and wants the footage from it to be made public, the California Legislature is contemplating tightening the rules so even less footage sees the light of day.

Earlier this month,

San Diego County District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis dropped what can only be described as a game changer. Under intense pressure from the public and with the backing of local law enforcement chiefs, Dumanis released video from 10 officer-involved shootings in the county stretching back to 2014 and announced a new policy: San Diego will now release video footage from all police use of force incidents. The new protocol is the product of weeks of discussions between Dumanis, the San Diego County Chiefs Association and the Sheriff ’s Association, with input from other stakeholders, including elected officials, local media, citizens and the American Civil Liberties Union. Under the new plan, as soon as Dumanis’ office finishes reviewing an officer-involved use of force case, it will either issue a letter exonerating the officer, accompanied by the release any existing video footage of the incident, or it will charge the officer with a crime and retain the footage as evidence. In a joint letter to the community published in the San Diego Union Tribune, Dumanis, San Diego County Sheriff Bill

Gore and San Diego Police Chief Shelley Zimmerman described the protocol as a “groundbreaking effort to be as transparent as possible … in the pursuit of truth and accountability for everyone.” The letter concludes, “public trust and confidence in law enforcement is a shared responsibility and that should never be taken for granted.” As executive director of the First Amendment Coalition, Peter Schemer has been watching the police video footage debate closer than most in California. In fact, his organization hosted a series of forums on the subject last year that saw journalists, officers and lawyers share the stage to debate the issue. “I think San Diego’s is a very enlightened approach,” Scheer said by phone last week. “This is what should happen everywhere.”

transparency has the potential to push departments to a “better level” of policing. “You can become myopic, just seeing things through your own lens and those of the people you associate with, but when you have a larger community discussion (about an incident), it can be really helpful.” Chapman said he has developed a better appreciation for the nuances involved in these debates since Hoffman’s shooting, the first officer-involved shooting of someone in Arcata in more than 30 years. It’s clear Chapman feels his officers acted appropriately in that situation, and the video would have helped convey that to the public. “I could have quickly shown what the officers faced and the justification for the use of deadly force,” he said. “While

“You can become myopic, just seeing things through your own lens and those of the people you associate with, but when you have a larger community discussion (about an incident), it can be really helpful.” — Eureka Police Chief Andrew Mills

San Diego’s policy seems to have legs in a large part because it represents a compromise. It’s the first in the state to presume that these videos should be made public and to do so as a matter of protocol. But the policy also recognizes the integrity of the legal system and postpones the release of any footage until after the district attorney’s office has decided whether to pursue criminal charges. The policy has the attention of officials in Humboldt County. In an email to the Journal, Fleming said it “certainly could be a good fit” locally, and both Arcata Police Chief Tom Chapman and Eureka Police Chief Andrew Mills voiced some support for the idea. In fact, the idea has gotten so much traction that the local law enforcement chiefs association — which includes the heads of all local police agencies, the DA and representatives from the Department of Fish and Wildlife, State Parks, the U.S. Marshals Service and probation — is in the process of planning a half-day retreat to discuss it further. “It seems reasonable and well thought out,” Mills said of the San Diego policy, adding that the element of public

there will always be criticism — they could have done this, they should have done that — I think the video could quickly show what those officers were faced with and instill confidence and trust in their actions.” But Chapman said he also realizes that an agency can’t release the videos of incidents they believe were handled correctly unless they are also willing to release footage of the ones that weren’t. That’s daunting from a public relations standpoint, he said, but more so from the civil liability side of things, as one of his duties is minimizing his city’s exposure to lawsuits. Mills had more of a let-the-cards-fallwhere-they-may attitude on this, saying that when his department mishandles a situation, it needs to own up to it. For his part, Scheer said he actually thinks the release of all use-of-force videos would make the public much more sympathetic toward the police and the decisions they have to make during dynamic, real-time conflicts. “It should be in police departments’ interest to get these things out Continued on next page »

there to the public,” Scheer said. That may be true, Chapman said, but this is also an enormously complicated conversation with lots of repercussions. “It’s tough to balance all of these things,” he said, turning to the often-overlooked human component. “The other consideration I think you have to have is for the people, the human beings, involved in these things and the emotional trauma they have, for the police officers involved, the person who was shot, their family and friends, who then have to see that video. These are literally life and death, harrowing, intense moments that are life changing. It’s really difficult to say, ‘Let’s throw that out for people to view.’ “It would be much cleaner if the Legislature said, ‘In California, this is what we do.’ Then it’s clear for me. Then, we have rules and we play by those rules.”

So far, the Legislature has been un-

willing, or unable, to do that. Instead, as law enforcement agencies throughout the state over the last decade or so have begun widely deploying video technology — first in patrol cars and now body-worn cameras — the Legislature has left it to the state’s public records act to determine how they handle the footage. The California Public Records Act — which was incorporated as a part of the state’s constitution last year — essentially operates under the premise that all documents held by public agencies are inherently open to public disclosure, meaning they can be reviewed or copied by anyone who asks. “Access to information concerning the conduct of the people’s business is a fundamental right of every person in the state,” the CPRA reads.

Hip and Knee Arthritis

But the act contains a number of wide-reaching exemptions that give agencies the option of withholding certain things from the public eye. Law enforcement agencies in particular are given enormous discretion in how they respond to records requests, as the law dictates they release the essentials — the who, what, when and where — of calls for service and arrests, but little else. Just about everything else can be said to fall into the police investigative file exemption, which holds that police can refuse to make public anything that is or ever has been part of an investigation, whether it’s one that’s ongoing or one that closed 50 years ago. Both locally and throughout the state, police agencies regularly use the investigative file exemption to deny access to video footage as a matter of policy. Chapman said his rationale is simple: He

wants to take his discretion out of what the Arcata Police Department releases and what it doesn’t, so he can’t be criticized for playing favorites or only releasing what makes officers look good. “Putting one out but not putting another out undermines the confidence and trust in the integrity of the process we have,” he said. So Chapman’s answer is to deny any request for video that comes in under the act, as he believes all fall under the investigative file exemption, making the release of the videos discretionary. It’s worth noting that while an opinion poll from the nonprofit Cato Institute found overwhelming public support for requiring officers to wear body cameras, with 92 percent of the public supporting the idea, the public is more split on whether the video captured by the cameras should be made public. A YouGov poll

on the issue found that 51 percent of those polled believe the footage should be made public, while 28 percent believe it should not. Twenty-one percent of respondents were unsure. One voice in the debate seems louder in the California Legislature than others. The Police Officers Research Association of California (PORAC), law enforcement’s primary lobbying organization in the state, is sponsoring the only three bills regarding police video footage that remain under consideration this legislative session. All of them worry transparency advocates, like Scheer. Assembly Bill 1940, authored by Assemblymember Jim Cooper (D-Elk Grove), would require all police agencies using body cameras in the state to allow officers to review footage of a critical incident before writing a report, giving an internal affairs statement or being interviewed in a criminal or civil proceeding. PORAC argues requiring that officers be allowed to review the footage will allow for more detailed, accurate statements. But others worry such a practice would allow officers to change their statements to fit what the video shows, clouding some of the transparency the technology promises to provide. For his part, Mills said he made sure when Eureka implemented its new body camera policy that it expressly prohibits officers from reviewing the footage after critical incidents, thinking the prohibition results in a “cleaner process.” “I want the community to have confidence that (our critical incident investigations) aren’t cooked,” Mills said. Chapman, meanwhile, doesn’t agree with the bill, but instead feels it should be the investigating officers’ call whether it’s in the best interest of an investigation to have officers review footage before making a statement. There are investigative strategies, Chapman said, that could dictate either path, depending on the facts and circumstances of a specific incident. “The investigators need that discretion to make the determination on a caseby-case basis,” Chapman said, adding that’s exactly how his department would approach the issue with any suspect or witness in a case, balancing the opportunity of getting a more detailed and accurate statement against the risk of the video shaping someone’s version of events.

require departments or municipalities to give officers three business days’ notice before releasing video footage involving the officer under the California Public Records Act. PORAC believes this is an officer safety issue, giving officers time to protest a video’s release in court if they feel it would put them or their families at risk. But others — including a variety of newspapers that have weighed in on the issue — worry the safety issue is overblown and the bill’s intent is really to make it harder for agencies to release videos generally. The final bill, Assembly Bill 2611 by Evan Low (D-Campbell), would explicitly update the CPRA to block the release of any police video depicting the death of an officer or anything “morbid and sensational” enough to be “highly offensive.” If you think about it, use-of-force videos inherently depict violent and sometimes deadly encounters, so it’s hard to imagine how one would go about drawing the line between the public interest and “highly offensive.” All three bills have passed the Assembly with near unanimous votes, including those of North Coast Assemblyman Jim Wood. In a statement emailed to the Journal, Wood explained his votes: “This package of bills represents the Legislature’s ongoing effort to develop laws around this new technology that ensures both transparency and guarantees the rights of everyone involved are protected. It is a difficult balancing act and I think my colleagues got it right.” North Coast State Sen. Mike McGuire hasn’t taken a stance on the bills, which should get their first hearings in the Senate this week. In an email to the Journal, McGuire said dash and body cameras can provide increased transparency and accountability, and that he looks forward to discussing the issues with the bills’ authors in the coming weeks. Other than Mills and Chapman weighing in on A.B. 1940, local officials said they haven’t been tracking the legislation closely enough to chime in on it. But Scheer has. “It’s a wonderful case study in how the political process at the state level in particular can be very disconnected from the sort of grassroots political momentum,” Scheer said, explaining that while public sentiment and even that of police chiefs throughout the state is shifting toward public disclosure, the police lobby is fighting against it. “It’s the classic case of a special interest being exceptionally well organized.”

“It’s a wonderful case study in how the political process at the state level in particular can be very disconnected from the sort of grassroots political momentum. It’s the classic case of a special interest being exceptionally well organized.” — First Amendment Coalition Executive Director Peter Scheer

Against this backdrop, the

Journal will walk into an appellate court in San Francisco as this edition hits newsstands to argue that the public should get to see a video of Eureka police officers arresting a 14-year-old boy shortly before midnight on Dec. 6, 2012. The arrest led to assault charges being filed against one of the officers, former Sgt. Adam Laird, charges that were later dismissed after a flurry of experts weighed in to say Laird’s use of force was reasonable and justified. (Laird argued in his defense that he was being singled out for prosecution and discriminated against because of his political beliefs and staunch support of a controversial former Eureka police chief.) Back in May of 2015, Humboldt County Superior Court Judge Christopher Wilson granted a Journal petition seeking release of the video, determining it was in the public interest to see exactly what happened on California Street that night. But the city quickly appealed Wilson’s ruling, arguing that the video is a confidential personnel record and therefore warranted the fierce statutory protections state law grants police officer personnel files. Virtually from the outset of this case, the Journal has argued that the video in question is not a police officer personnel record. The video — recorded on a city street with taxpayer purchased equipment and depicting officers carrying out the duties entrusted to them by the public — existed independently of any complaint filed against Laird or any internal investigation into his conduct, the Journal argued, meaning it can’t retroactively be deemed a confidential personnel. The appellate court recently sent out a request that parties to the case focus oral arguments on June 23 squarely on whether the video can be considered a confidential personnel record, implying that the court has disregarded the technicality arguments both sides put forward in

briefings and intends to weigh in on the heart of the matter. The case — and others like it throughout the state — has the potential to create case law, or binding legal interpretations of how long-standing laws apply to this new technology. And until the Legislature takes on the task of determining what police agencies should be required to make public, its courts will make that decision one small piece at a time, as agencies throughout the state institute different policies and try to navigate the new technological and political landscapes of policing in the 21st century. The current state of legal limbo seems frustrating to all involved. Chapman said he wants to see state lawmakers decide the matter firmly, setting rules for all to follow, regardless of what public sentiment or liability concerns surround a specific incident. “The Legislature needs to make this choice and it needs to be statewide,” Chapman said. “It shouldn’t be piecemeal. It would be so much cleaner if the Legislature said, ‘In California, this is what we do.’ Then it’s clear. Then, we have rules and we play by those rules, whatever they may be.” It’s hard to say exactly how the issue moves forward from here. Scheer thinks the best way to end public mistrust of police officers and hold departments fully accountable is to make the release of use of force videos automatic. Law enforcement officials in San Diego seem to agree with him. Will Humboldt follow suit? Will local residents get to see exactly what happened with Joshua Hoffman at that Shell gas station before he was shot four times by officers last month? For now, the Legislature is leaving those decisions to the prosecutors and police chiefs involved. Well, them and the transparency advocates who will continue filing lawsuits and the courts that will continue deciding them. l

The Big Thirst

It’s been said that water is today’s oil/ gold/your choice of valuable commodity. Water is a lot simpler — and a lot more complicated — than that. It may be just endlessly recycled dinosaur pee, but it’s also integral to the web of life — something we’ve become all too aware of in the past few years. The Big Thirst, this year’s signature Mad River Festival production, asks what happens when greed, political ambition, tribal culture, wildlife and social activism all stake their claims on this precious resource. A serious subject, for sure, but because it’s a Dell’Arte show from the pen of founding Artistic Director Joan Schirle, we get to untangle the mystery through music and rapid-fire comedy. Driving the story is bumbling private detective and amateur animal rescuer Dolly Madison of DissGuys Detective Agency (the versatile Janessa Johnsrude). Older sister and budding detective novelist Ladybird Madison (a very prim and proper

Sarah Peters) provides a running commentary throughout as she attempts to match Dolly’s story to the advice in Twenty Rules for Writing Detective Stories (an actual publication from 1928 — check it out, it’s very entertaining). Baby sister Abby (Kaitlen Osburn), who claims she was named after Dear Abby rather than another dead president’s wife, is a delightfully naïve activist out to save the world (or at least its riparian habitats). Our story begins with a high-speed chase (incorrectly, according to Ladybird’s rulebook) and a red herring (of course). On opening night, rain brought an appropriate but fortunately brief unplanned intermission, but the ever-resourceful Dolly soon got things moving again (“Previously, on The Big Thirst …”). After a hasty wipedown of the stage, a besequined black bird (a particularly playful Pratik Motwani) bursts through Dolly’s office window in a barrage of bad crow puns and the news that her missing keys are down by the river bar. But when she goes to retrieve them, the river

has — gasp — disappeared. And so the quest for the missing water begins. Along the way, we meet Jake (James Peck), resident haiku spouter at Moondough’s Café, incompetent heavies Heckel (Peck) and Jeckel (Motwani), ambitious tribal member Jean (Claudia Johani Guerrero), and the owners of Fabulous Farms, Louie (Peck) and Melinda (Allie Menzimer), who are planning to hybridize two of the most water-hungry crops on the planet. If all goes according to plan, the farmers’ success is assured, thanks to their partnership with a certain Ronald Trumpet (a bravura performance by Donald Forrest). But what does all this mean for the river? A little (shiny black) bird may hold the answer, with a little help from an expert on multiple personality disorders (Michael Fields in his usual cameo appearance). Osburn, Guerrero and Menzimer also contribute nicely choreographed musical fantasy interludes as Delta Smelta, Beaver/

From antiquity through the middle ages, myths and folktales from around the world tell of spirits and beings who assume human form, either to observe humanity or as malevolent tricksters. The White Snake, now playing at the Ferndale Repertory Theatre, has its roots in just such a tale, dating back thousands of years as a traditional Chinese spoken fable first put to paper in the 14th century Ming Dynasty. Tony Award-winner Mary Zimmerman, who has a carved out a niche over the past couple decades with theatrical adaptations of classic works ranging from The Odyssey and Arabian Nights, debuted The White Snake at Ashland’s Oregon Shakespeare Festival in 2010. Taking something deeply archetypal to a modern staging offers its rewards, but it’s a high-wire act. In our story, the White Snake (Amber Cuevas) has resided in the skies for centuries, cultivating knowledge enough to take human form. A meeting with the sassier and more forward Green Snake (Isabella Ceja) leads to the pair hatching a plan: Come down they shall from the clouds and visit the world below, taking form for a day among the mortals. But the earthly plane being what it is, that day turns into many, with unforeseen events in abundance.

White Snake, encouraged by her greenclad cohort, soon marries the earnest, sincere young man Xu Xian (Gino Bloomberg, in possession of some sharp comic timing). The trio works at a thriving apothecary business and soon the couple have a child on the way. Complications soon ensue due to the machinations of Fa Hai (Hanah Toyoda), the scheming abbot at a nearby monastery who has his ideas about exactly who is fit to be married to whom. (Snakes in human form happily wed to actual humans? Not cool with him.) The bit gets in some good jabs at hypocrisy. The White Snake is burdened with some material and elements that leave it moving in fits and starts — narration by members of the solid ensemble, including Hanah Toyoda and Heather Karns in several roles, work well at the beginning and end, but seems like an unnecessary layer of exposition at other points. And a running joke meant to be some sort of elbow-in the-ribs about the “rules of Chinese theater” seems like it came from a different play going on somewhere down the hall. What buoys The White Snake admirably enough are the performances from its young cast and most notably the creative visuals overseen by director Catherine L. Brown and scenic designer Raymond Gutierrez, which includes some eye-popping imaginations of pouring rain, shimmering rivers in springtime and bustling city streets. The White Snake tightens up its energy and focus in second act and, to its credit, the story eventually concludes with notes of greater poignancy and frankness than one might expect. And that’s a savvy burnish, because a fable dating back centuries should leave you with more to think about than when you took your seat. The White Snake plays at the Ferndale Repertory Theatre in Eureka on Friday and Saturdays at 8 p.m. through July 9, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. on June 26, July 3 and July 10.

Champion Oysters

At the fest and in your backyard By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com

ut on the Arcata Plaza, the crowd was swelling and soaking up sunshine, beer and melted butter from half shells. Just inside the window of Mazzotti’s, however, we 14 judges sat tapping our cocktail forks. Some had skipped breakfast or subsisted on salads the day before in preparation for Caligulan gluttony, but the shellfish was only trickling in. A number of the anonymous entries came late or dropped out — of the mere five vendors set to compete Best Raw Oyster, only four showed. Nine of 10 scheduled Best Cooked Oyster entries made it to the table, but only three of four Best Non-oyster dishes showed up, and one of those was a cup of sliced fruit.

We’d started the morning off with a warning from Oystress Rachel Hoeflein-Lay (the former title of “Oyster Babe” was a little “ring girl,” after all) about maintaining the anonymity of the competition, hinting at disgruntled entrants. Is it worth it to vie for the title? Leaving a booth with a line of hungry, cash-waving customers to deliver more than a baker’s dozen of your best oysters for free might not make immediate sense. A look at past winners could also make you tear up your ticket. How is your little Kumamoto with cocktail sauce and lemon going to stand up to something that looks like a seafood version of the Olympic opening ceremonies? Then there’s the Meryl Streep factor — seeing the same rotation of names

An afternoon at the trap and skeet range

he sun is shining as I tuck my Subaru into the row of jumbo pick-up trucks inhabiting the parking lot of the Humboldt Trap and Skeet Range. A distant slice of ocean reclines beyond the airport runway, and the noisy crack of shots fired smacks against the mountains that hem McKinleyville to the coast. Staffed by a small army of friendly volunteers, the clubhouse buzzes with small talk and the smell of a home-cooked lunch. Bill Lowe is cashier for the day, and welcomes me and my shooting partner with no-nonsense hospitality. Lowe describes the four games offered at the club: skeet, trap, bunker trap and sporting clay. He arranges an assortment of shotgun shells on the counter, explaining the differences between 12-, 20-, 28- and 410-gauge shells. Novices are welcome, and members seem happy to tutor even the most unskilled shooters. Lowe hands us a loaner gun — a 20-gauge Browning Automatic Gold SL — along with hearing protection and an irresistible pair of magenta safety glasses. We head outside with volunteer range master Ron Ruchong (who may or may not be your dentist). A club member for 43 years, Ruchong accompanies us and is a huge help. In keeping with the club’s commitment to gun safety, our lesson begins with basic gun handling and range etiquette before the fundamentals of skeet shooting — target shooting using machine-launched clay discs. As he hands over the gun, Ruchong explains, “Shooting a shotgun is not a precise endeavor. It’s not like a pistol or handgun where you’re sitting and aiming at a target. It’s not at all like that.” He continues, “It’s fluid. Like throwing a baseball. Like passing a basketball. It’s more of a sweeping and

pointing endeavor. The only guidance you have is instinct.” I can’t help but get a Karate Kid vibe. “Pull!” I shout. Squeak! Thwack! And I miss another one. “That’s a good effort!” Ruchong maintains his positive outlook, “Don’t think too much. Let’s try one more.” he encourages, “There’s a lot of good things you’re doing here. We just have to get you hitting the target.” And we’re laughing. As the next neon orange biodegradable target sails across the bright blue sky, I determinedly squint along the barrel of the gun. My shoulder burns from the recoil. I think of my 7-year-old bucktoothed self, who blew it target shooting in a North Carolina Girl Scout camp in 1976. Ruchong suggests thinking about it like this: “When you have a hose in the garden and you look at something and you spray it that’s kind of what you’re doing here. You just go to it and spray it. That’s kind of the Zen of it.” I heft the shotgun up once more and position the weight with all of the Zenlike resolve I can muster. Holding steady, despite the adrenalin zinging through my chest, I eyeball the trajectory of the clay and, blam! I blow that sucker to smithereens. Triumphant, I begin to comprehend what all the fuss is about. Meanwhile, a commercial airplane whirs slowly into view at the neighboring airport. Ruchong explains that even though the runway is well beyond the shot fall zone, shooters are expected to cease firing when a plane appears. There’s no official communication with the airport regarding plane activity, he says. “It’s just common sense.” At the end of our session, we’re welcomed back into the clubhouse to an enthusiastic chorus, “How’d you do? Hope

you had a little bit of fun!” To be honest, we kind of sucked at it, hitting three targets out of a possible 50. Thank goodness they’re such a nice bunch of people, reminding us reassuringly, “We’re more than willing to help anytime you need it.” Lowe says the nonprofit club, founded in 1952, has about 200 members, many volunteering as maintenance and ground workers, range officers, board members, cooks and cashiers. Some members compete in national tournaments but it’s mostly social. About 20 percent of the shooters are women and kids are welcome if they’re not too small. “We’ve had some little guys who can’t hardly pick up a gun. We discourage that,” explains Lowe. The general consensus is that kids should be at least 10 to 12 years old. “They’ve gotta be big enough to handle a gun.” The club, which rests on land leased from the county of Humboldt, is open on Wednesdays and Sundays from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. If the weather is truly foul, the range might be closed. On pleasant summer evenings, they’re sometimes open from 5:30 p.m. to dusk, but you’ll want to call first. If you’re hungry, the club offers up homemade lunch (think beef stew, cornbread, salad and cake) for $5 (or $6 if it’s fancy). The cost for a shooting session is $6 for non-members and $4 for members, adding $.50 if you’re playing five-stand or bunker. Safety gear and loaner guns are available without a supplemental charge, and the clubhouse sells shotgun shells. Annual family memberships (spouse and children under 18) run $35, student and associate memberships are $20. For more information, call 839-3788 or visit www.humboldttrapskeet.org. l

Humboldt Played Defining the locus of local By Andy Powell

y the time you read this you will hopefully have had enough time to deal with your grief over the Golden State Warriors blowing a 3-1 lead and giving the Cavaliers NBA Championship. It was painful for many of us up here on the North Coast, as we’re only 280-something miles away from Oakland, so the Warriors are pretty much our team, right? At least when they’re doing well. Living outside of any normal distance from a professional sports team, I’ve always wondered how many miles of space are necessary to maintain allegiance to a franchise. If you live in San Francisco, it’s understandable that you’re a Giants fan. Live across the Bay and you’re for the A’s, sure. Live in San Luis Obispo? Who’s your team then? You’re close enough to Los Angeles to be a Lakers fan, but you’re about the same distance — I’m roughly guessing — from Warrior territory as well, so who’s your team? If Portland were 120 miles closer to us, would we all be Trailblazer fans? Come on. Enough sports talk. This is supposed to be a music column, right? And when it comes to sports, I’m about as out of my element as a fish on a motorcycle. My point being, we like things local, or as close to local as we can get. We’re more connected to it, and it seems to be more “ours,” whether it’s a local beer, cheese, perfume or the Crabs. We love when something of “ours” gets recognition out there in that big ol’ stupid rest of the world around us. When someone from Humboldt gets on a national show about hoarders, we celebrate! When some Hollywood celebrity comes through Humboldt and brings paparazzi attention to our redwoods, we swoon! When our weed makes national news, we all pretend we’ve been against prohibition forever

and awkwardly celebrate! The same goes for our music. When one of our own musicians is able to garner national and international acclaim — and almost make a living — we are proud of them as sort of cultural ambassadors of Humboldt County. When someone like former-local Earl Thomas jet-sets around the world soaking up applause many miles away (more below) but once called this special place on the planet home ... well, it puts a bit of wind in our sails, doesn’t it? So whatever you define as “local,” you’ve got some good choices for music coming up.

Friday Tonight in the Lake o’ Blue you can catch one of the more entertaining bands Humboldt has to offer. Peeping Thomas will kick things off with a 9 p.m. Logger Bar show, and I heard they might be joined by some guests. Your guess of guests is as good as mine but I imagine this will be a fun spot to be and it’s totally free. Blues sensation Earl Thomas will be throwing an album release party for his new release of Crow at Humboldt Brews around 9:30 p.m. This is his 14th album, I believe, and he’s got a pretty busy year coming up touring through Europe and the UK, so tonight would be a good time to catch him. Bring $18 to get in, and wish him luck as he trots the globe.

Saturday

An email from Dan Davis of Wild Otis focused mainly on trying to sell me one of his bass guitars, but also got around to mentioning that the band will be jamming for your pleasure tonight at Redwood Curtain Brewery in Arcata for free around 8 p.m. Just a bit later, at 9 p.m. and for a $10 cover, Humboldt Brews is hosting the “Smash the Quiet Tour,” which features the Chaotic Noise Marching Corps out

30 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, June 23, 2016 • northcoastjournal.com

of Seattle, a “renegade marching band club that is dedicated to keeping the tradition of music, performance, energy, havoc, discipline and sheer stupid fun alive.” Sounds fun. The corps is joined by locals SambAmore, who bring the Afro-Brazilian funk and will easily get you to move. Speaking of locals, Humboldt County’s “newest steel pan ensemble” (as they tell me) Pandemic Steel Band is also throwing itself into the ring on tonight’s bill, but that’s not all. On top of all that, out of Chicago comes Environmental Encroachment, which peddles in marching band sounds with theatrics and costumes for your entertainment. Later in the night, Ian of the Alibi mentions that some “all vinyl garage rock” will be spun courtesy of Garage Au-Go-Go, who will be joined around 11 p.m. by local super spinners Adam and DJ Red at this rare $2 Alibi show.

Sunday You can get your Sunday off to a mellow start at the Lighthouse Grill in Trinidad with the sounds of JD Jeffries and Devin Paine, who will be playing this free show for you starting at 5 p.m. Over in Arcata, Bohemian world music ensemble 3 Leg Torso is stopping by The Sanctuary at 8 p.m. Often heard on NPR, this ensemble blends together some modern-Gypsy-chamber-pop and has won various awards and accolades from Portland press and critics. Expect to hear some songs from its latest release of And To All A Good Night. Sliding scale of $10$20 for this one. As if this Sunday wasn’t already busy enough, there’s an interesting three-band bill at Richards’ Goat Miniplex (which I have occasionally referred to as Richards’ Goat Tavern and Tea Room or The Miniplex) at 9 p.m. tonight. Residual Echoes alum Adam Payne brings his

eponymous solo project to town tonight with his “left-field garage pop,” according to Dieter of local high-altitude mystic-plateau rockers Opossum Sun Trail, which will be the local support for said band and synth-tinted Boston band Los Greys. Only $5 for this show, so go get lost.

Wednesday Good sport David of the Arcata Playhouse has noticed my recent ambivalence toward overly wordy and pretentious press releases, and simply mentioned that he’s excited to have a very talented band at the Playhouse this evening. The name is sounding very familiar, so I’m just going to go ahead and say that the “globally inspired roots quintet from Western Canada” The Bills are returning to Humboldt tonight. They have a new album entitled Trail of Tales that they’ll be performing a healthy majority of for you. What’s the album like you wonder? Well, it “walks a verdant path through lyrics that explore and shimmer with melodies that are sure to become standards in the deep and rich Canadian folk/roots/rock songbook.” Sorry, David, I had to quote the press release a bit. The Bills have two JUNO nominations and some Western Canadian Music Awards to their name, so that’s nothing to shake a Canadian stick at. Get a $15 ticket before they sell out for this 8 p.m. show. l Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online. Bands and promoters, send your gig info, preferably with a high-res photo or two, to music@northcoastjournal.com. Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Night Show on KWPT 100.3 FM weeknights at 6 p.m. His wife will not like the column title.

Step Right Up The season of the fair — with fried-food smells, swirling rides and blue-ribbon goods — is here. The Best of Humboldt Fair, the first of the summer, spins its Ferris wheel high in the sky and welcomes families through the gates at Redwood Acres Fairgrounds June 23 through June 26 for four days of arts, entertainment, agriculture and more ($12 adults, $5 seniors and kids 6 to 12, free for active military and kids under 6). There’s something for everyone this year, from the NASCAR Experience to the quilt and flower show to the Exceptional Rodeo to local products and animals large and small in the livestock barn. Family entertainment includes big top circus fun with juggling, stilt walking and clowning around courtesy of the Jest in Time Circus. Nature Joe’s back with his furry and feathered Animal Exhibit, and if you dare, take A Walk on the Wild Side for critters with a bigger bite. Steve the Pretty Good Magician has a few scarves up his sleeve and Karen Quest, recently at Mad River Festival, performs whip-crackin’ cow girl tricks. Kids wearing the coveted carnival wristband ($30) can ride all the rides their little corn dog and cotton candy-filled stomachs can handle. And, of course, no fair would be complete without food, food, food and lots of live music. — Kali Cozyris

Fried Chicken for the Soul Everything’s better over a plate of hot, delicious food, isn’t it? Strangers become friends around the table. Barriers melt away like pats of butter on warm, squares of golden cornbread. Breaking bread is a healing act and definitely what the world needs now. Join the Eureka Branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) at the 46th annual Charles Washington Soul Food Dinner on Saturday, June 25, from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Eureka Women’s Club ($20, $10 for kids under 12). Fill your belly and warm your spirit with a plate of traditional soul food: fried chicken, macaroni and cheese, collard greens, black eyed peas, cornbread and candied yams. They’re not fooling around. Thankfully, DJ L Boogie of KHUM will bring the beats so you can shake some of it off before dessert. The event was named in honor of the late Charles Washington, an early leader in the local NAACP branch, which was founded in 1952. Donations from the dinner help the local branch further the mission of the NAACP, which is to ensure the political, educational, social and economic equality of rights of all persons and to eliminate race-based discrimination. Sounds damn good to us. — Kali Cozyris

36 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, June 23, 2016 • northcoastjournal.com

Here begins the section describing the rationale (rationalization?) behind skipping Finding Dory. The exigencies of a weekend entertaining family-in-law, which included the oyster festival, a Crabs game and the consumption of multiple meals together per day, coupled with one’s own filial piety, create a weekend all but devoid of viable movie-going hours. Still, it seems everybody found Dory just fine on their own, as the box office receipts indicate. This, of course, bolsters my theory that nobody will base their attendance at a children’s movie on any given review of said children’s movie (except in the unlikely event that one competing release just edges out the other in terms of “wink wink, earmuffs, kids, ha ha ha” jokes targeting the parents). The families will attend, knowing full well what to expect, and a mildly pleasant time will be had by most. There is, of course, another demographic: those drawn to an animated undersea adventure by its psychedelic possibilities. They, too, will have already made their decisions, and will be too busy procuring supplies, timing peaks and planning exit strategies that get them safely out of the theater under the comforting cover of darkness. Point being, anybody who might consider seeing Finding Dory has long since made up his/her mind. With that said, I hope it was an entertaining, not too irritating experience for the families. And I hope to the same degree that nobody in the other camp had too prolonged a cartoon shark-induced panic attack. CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE. I did steal two hours to see Central Intelligence, a mismatched-buddy action comedy from the 1980s and 1990s mold, and the only other movie that opened locally. Flashing back to 1996 and the last school assembly of their senior year, we are introduced to hyper-achiever Calvin Joyner (Kevin Hart) and overweight outcast Robbie Weirdicht

(Dwayne Johnson, or at least parts of his face digitally pasted on to someone else). While Calvin addresses the entire school with a rousing speech about the future being theirs, etc., a group of bullies forces Robbie from the showers onto the gym floor, to the uproarious laughter of almost everyone in attendance. Calvin shows kindness to Robbie, but the damage is done: Robbie disappears from school, the humiliation left to ring in his subconscious down the decades. And down the decades we go, meeting Calvin again after 20 years of unseized opportunities. He has become a mid-level functionary in an accounting firm, consistently passed over for promotions, his talents largely unrecognized. He manages to maintain his relationship with high school sweetheart Maggie (Danielle Nicolet), though her continually blossoming career as an attorney is making him bitter. With their high school reunion — which Calvin refuses to attend due to self-pity — fast approaching, Calvin accepts a Facebook invitation from a mysterious stranger named Bob Stone. As an excuse not to attend the couples counselling session Maggie has scheduled for them, he also agrees to meet Bob for drinks that evening. At the bar he encounters Bob, née Robbie, who, to paraphrase, has spent the last 20 years working out six hours a day, every day. (Johnson plays this part as a sort of Jeff Spicoli-informed über-dork, albeit a hulking, sculpted one. It’s an interesting choice but it mostly works for him). Calvin is quickly won over by Bob’s nostalgic hero-worship of him, and then intrigued when the big man quickly handles a fouron-one barroom misunderstanding gone bad. With all of that as brief reintroduction, Bob then plunges Calvin into a morass of espionage and double-crosses and satellite codes, tied up in a heartwarming bow made of anti-bullying and reaffirmed self-worth. The plot here is mostly noise and Mac-

DINING voices the friendly fish with the fried short-term memory (anybody relate?) from Finding Nemo. This time she sets out with her aquatic buddies on a search for the rest of her long lost blue tang clan. With Albert Brooks and Ed O’Neill. PG. 97M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

ME BEFORE YOU. Carpe diem love story about a young woman in a rut who becomes a caregiver/life coach to a suicidal quadriplegic man who’s mourning the loss of his adventurous former life. Starring Emilia Clarke and Sam Claflin. PG. 110M. BROADWAY.

Hard truth: This is not how you look with your fanny pack.

NOW YOU SEE ME 2. But maybe you don’t have to. This sequel about do-gooder magicians can’t pull the same rabbit out of its hat as the original, despite a charming ensemble cast and fancy illusions. Starring Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman and Daniel Radcliffe. PG13. 115M. BROADWAY,

MILL CREEK.

Guffin, a mechanism from moving our protagonists from setup to setup. The style of the piece is equally workmanlike, which is allowable because the stars are so compelling and likeable, but also disappointing. Director Rawson Marshall Thurber (We’re the Millers, Dodgeball: A True Underdog Story) understands that comedy requires a light touch and plenty of breathing room, but he seems to have forgotten that many of the movies that inspired this one also have touches of grit, art and individuality. The reason to watch Central Intelligence, though, is for Johnson and Hart. While their chemistry would be better suited to an R-rated version of something like this, it’s still undeniably entertaining in its sweetened condensed milk version. Whether or not it would affect anybody’s opinion, I think it is worth mentioning that these two may well be the hardest working guys in show biz. IMDb indicates that Johnson currently has 10 movie projects in various stages of development, an ongoing television show (Showtime’s Ballers), plus wrestling appearances and his annual schedule of three to four starring roles. Hart’s calendar is only slightly less full and they’ve both been plugging away at it for more than 20 years. And they somehow still manage to make their performances in a so-so movie funny and apparently effortless; that’s pretty impressive. PG13. 107M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

Scary Scenarios

f you like the Alien movies, you’ll love the solitary wasp. Take one of my favorites, Eumenes, the potter wasp. She flies up and down tiny branches, diligently seeking small caterpillars. When she finds one, she darts down, grabs it and paralyzes it with a sting. Once it’s immobilized, she takes it to a secondary location and carefully massages the prey, squeezing everything out of its gut. After all, if those contents were to spoil, the rot could spread to the victim and kill it prematurely. Then she stings it carefully injecting tiny measured doses of her paralytic venom at selected nerve clusters to assure the paralysis is permanent and total. Once the prey is cleaned and totally helpless, unable even to squirm, she carries it off to a dried mud cell where she deposits it and a single egg, finally sealing it off with a mud plug. The tiny caterpillar waits in the darkness for the wasp larva to hatch and carefully eat all parts not necessary to sustain the victim’s life, once again preserving the food’s freshness as long as possible. They are all called “parasitoids” in contrast to regular parasites, which, like mosquitoes and fleas, leave their hosts alive at the end of the interaction. Once the female has spotted her victim, the end is horrifyingly inevitable. The fact that many of them are extremely specific as to what species they hunt can make them valuable biological control agents. It is good to remember, though, that it is not in a picky eater’s interest to eliminate all of its food supply so the wasps will seldom completely eradicate a pest but can be relied on to keep populations in check.

Feed Me, Seymour It’s springtime and my Voodoo lily (Dracunculus vulgaris) is blooming. A member of the arum family, it smells just like rotting meat for the one or two days the flower blooms. These guys don’t rely on bees to pollinate them, but on flies and beetles, specifically the kind of flies

The potter wasp preparing a caterpillar meal. and beetles that are attracted to dead and decaying animals. While not considered a carnivorous plant, they do attract and often kill a great number of green and blue bottle flies, a carrion beetle or two, and a couple of species I have yet to identify as they all vie for the chance to feast on the rotten meat that isn’t there. I have even had buzzards swoop through the garden when the lilies were in bloom. Unlike true carnivorous plants, this one depends on the insects for pollination services, not nutrition. To the best of my knowledge, it does not gain anything from the dead insects that accumulate in the base of the flower. Although someone with a bunch of radioactive flies and a PET scanner might be able to prove otherwise. Mostly evolving in nutrient depleted swamps, true carnivorous plants supplement their diets with nitrogen supplied by digesting insects. Species grow on every continent except Antarctica. Trapping mechanisms range from the simple pitfall traps of Sarracenia, Heliamphora, Cephalotus and Nepenthes, the more complex trap of our local native Darlingtonia californica, to the flypaper sticky traps of Byblis, Drosophyllum, Drosera and Pinguicula, to the intricate active traps of Dionea, Aldrovanda and Utricularia, and the exotic corkscrew spiral trap of Genlisea. There are even some species of fungi that trap nematodes with an inflating noose structure. I have survived raising many of these interesting plants. A fine reference book on their cultivation is The Savage Garden by Peter D’Amato, the revised edition of which I have not yet had the opportunity to read. Oh, a hint: Those nifty Venus’ fly traps you buy at the nursery will thrive living outdoors so long as they’re kept wet, don’t freeze solid and get some protection from direct sun, as they would in their native Carolina bogs. Winter dormancy is essential for them to recover in the spring and thrive. l
