Arcata Murphy’s Player Names (L to R) Finn Sullivan, Andrew Handley, Trevor Nunes, Asher Meadows, Xavier Finnegan, Aidan Salazar, Wyatt Homan, Nick Parker, Sierra Baldwin, Finn Murphy, Miles Oliver. Not shown: Kameron Momoa

Murphy’s A’s Player Names (back row standing L to R) Manager Carlos Avelar, Perry Bailey, Lucas Lynch, Coach Dave Phillis, Quinlan Maynor, Cameron Saso, coach Eric Eichin, Che Santino Jimenez, Corbin Eichin, & coach Larrin McConnell. (front row kneeling L to R) Austin McConnell, Jayce Larkins, Cameron Klein, Brayden Craven, Porter Price, & Daniel Minton.

Murphy’s is very proud of both of their championship teams Murphy’s Market is proud to support local youth sports including two Little League Teams, one in Arcata and one in McKinleyville. 40-year coach Carlos Avelar, who has also been with Murphy’s Market since 1971, manages Murphy’s McKinleyville team.

Murphy’s McKinleyville Little League Team finished the season with a 19-2 record, winning the McKinleyville League for the 3rd

straight year. They also earned their 4th trip to the Tournament of Champions, where they look to defend their title. The McKinleyville Murphy’s got some help with the long ball this year with Cameron Saso hitting 11 homeruns, Austin McConnell hitting 4 (3 of which were grand slams) and Corbin Eichin hitting 1.

Murphy’s Arcata also had some homerun power with Asher Meadows hitting 5, Xavier Finnegan 4, Kameron Momoa hitting 2

and Nick Parker rounding it out with 1 HR. Murphy’s Arcata is coached by Mike Smith and finished with a 20-3 record. They also earned a trip to the Tournament of Champions.

In a twist of fate, both Murphy’s teams actually met in the Tournament of Champions final game. After a tough, well-played game Murphy’s Arcata pulled ahead with a walk off single in the bottom of the sixth to win 3-2.

Comment of the Week “Her ville jeg gerne være der er bare sååå smukt og skønne mennesker.”

Tomato Roulette Editor: Heather Flores says that since tomatoes are self-pollinating, you can save the seeds and know that next year’s tomatoes will be the same (“Humboldt Homegrown Tomatoes,” June 18). Most currently grown tomatoes, though, are hybrids, developed for characteristics like disease resistance, flavor, texture, or — uh — tough skins; and hybrid tomatoes won’t breed true.

Since they are crosses between two different “parent” tomatoes, the seeds will reflect some unpredictable combination of the genes of the parents. In my experience, what you tend to get is undistinguished cherry tomatoes. Never know, though — could be the tomato of the future! I always let a couple of volunteers grow, for that reason.

Ugh, People Editor: Reading Barry Evans’ synopsis of climate change (“Climate Change 101,” June 11 and 18) brings to mind a rush of thoughts. Climate change is of course a convenient euphemism for the destruction of our earth. Petro Man, not fully human, always in a hurry, largely selfinterested above all else, cannot bear the thought of putting away the car keys.

Even one day a week, because commerce and convenience rule. Prius maybe, but not beyond that.

With the earth being literally devoured by billions more mouths to feed, we still pay the poor to breed ‘em, whether or not they can feed ‘em.

We continue to give tax deductions to

couples with children, as if we need more children. We still, under the banner of Humanity, rush food aid to places where the natives are overpopulating their environment so badly it can no longer support them. If that is not enough, we allow them to migrate to more developed nations and leave the damage behind.

Mindless activities like Redwood Acres and tourism use gas and jet fuel like there is no tomorrow. The corrupt political and corporate class think of little but profits and taxes.

Looking back, history will view this time as the most depraved in human history. Forget slavery, war, etc. Civilized people knew, and could feel, the very earth itself being destroyed, and stood by drooling, at the mall, eating their poisoned corporate food, and buying their crap from China, while the signs are everywhere about our precious planet’s impending doom. Climate change 102, I guess it is called.

Lupine flash mob at the guard rail, each purple staff an ascending exclamation of joy.

Dividend Disparities Editor: The article “Discipline Disparities” (June 18) points out some glaring truths.

“American Indian/Alaska Native students in the district ‘have a higher risk of being suspended compared to all other students, while white and Latino students have a lower risk of being suspended compared to all others.’ African-American and multi-racial students were also at a disproportionately higher risk of being suspended for ‘disruptive/defiant’ behavior. These findings were in keeping with national trends.”

Repeat — these findings were in keeping with national trends.

So why were the Eureka City Schools sued?

That answer is also included in the article: “The assessment summarized in the report was one of the terms of the settlement, which also includes a $700,000 payout (85 percent of which went to paying ACLU and NCYL lawyers).”

Repeat — a $700,000 payout (85 percent of which went to paying ACLU and NCYL lawyers).

These lawyers are the same people who say they hate corporate greed and corruption. Yet their motives are the same — selfenrichment.

Why don’t people realize this and stop playing along with their games?

Move Over PG&E? Community choice aggregation could be electrical balancing act

By J.A. Savage

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

T

here’s no omnipotent god of electricity, even in Pacific Gas & Electric territory. Ask your off-the-grid friends. But, the rest of us now tethered to the two- or three-pronged outlet in Arcata — and perhaps Humboldt County in its entirety — may have the opportunity to cut the PG&E umbilical cord for a smaller, cheaper and, perhaps, more renewable deity. It would not, though, be freedom from the grid. The cord would still be attached, just to an unconventional new pseudo-socket called community choice aggregation.

You, the electric consumer now paying bills to PG&E, could well have your electric provided by a contractor hired by the city of Arcata or Humboldt County. You’d be plugging into the same socket and the same poles and wires, but the source of your electricity wouldn’t be PG&E. Arcata mayor Michael Winkler is an energy analyst at Redwood Energy and a proselytizer for electricity sustainability.

“It’s not only good for the environment, but also begins to keep the roughly $500 million per year that we spend on energy in Humboldt County in the county creating local jobs and circulating our energy dollars in our local economy,” Winkler wrote in an email. He’s been putting the moves on county supervisors and pushing potential non-governmental companies to make the plug alternative a reality for more than a year. This month, he’s gained some traction.

Arcata and the county now have proposals from two private companies that are offering to whisk the agencies and their thousands of ratepayers away from PG&E. If either is hired, it would be the first community choice aggregation program in the state to hand the reins to a private company. The only municipalities in the state operating community choice — Marin County and the city of Sonoma — have done so through their own governments. A third, Lancaster, is also setting up its own entity to run the program.

Arcata and Humboldt County are considering a more hands-off method through for-profit companies. Neither company with proposals for the governmental agencies — California Clean Power, out of Sonoma County, and Community Choice Partners from San Francisco — has operated a program for non-PG&E alternatives before.

Winkler’s $500 million is not a potential refund headed to consumers; perish that thought.

To us, it might be more like a few cents off our monthly bill. Think of community choice aggregation like a local brew, in which the consumer/quaffer has a say where the hops and the barley come from, as well as who serves that beer to your table. Imagine the hops are windand solar-generated electricity, while the barley is fossil-fuels-powered electricity.

And just like a beer can’t be beer without hops and barley, state laws governing continued on next page

continued from previous page electricity production say community choice aggregation has to be a mix of energy sources.

While you could save a few cents on your monthly bill with community choice, more important, say proponents, is that — unlike your dealings with PG&E — your elected representatives could increase or decrease how much renewable and Humboldt-grown electricity is in the mix.

Local governments could require more biomass fuel for electricity from Humboldt’s forests, or require building new

solar installations. Or they could tap into natural gas lines for fossil fuel to run generators. By playing with the mix, consumers/voters can determine the cost of their electricity, to a certain extent. Fossil-fuelgenerated energy is generally cheaper at the moment, while renewable sources run at a higher price.

In a June 10 letter to California Clean Power, Arcata City Manager Karen Diemer asked the company’s chief executive officer, Peter Rumble, to detail rate impacts for consumers if the price of the fossil

6 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 2015 • northcoastjournal.com

fuels used to create the majority of the state’s electricity were to rise above current wholesale rates. She also requested the cost of power under other options: a 33 percent renewables component (currently the state mandate), a 50 percent renewables goal, and a 100 percent feed of electricity fueled by solar, wind and other non-fossil energy. In all three scenarios, the city expects the price of power to be offered at a discount from PG&E rates, though Diemer notes that the 100-percent-renewables alternative is a long shot.

Humboldt County 3rd District Supervisor Mark Lovelace said there’s a lot to balance. “What are the community benefits to achieve?” he asked. “Is it maximum savings? More renewable energy? [Incorporating] local biomass? Those could be at odds with each other.”

Although Arcata could proceed on its own, it’s possible for the entire county to switch away from PG&E. Unlike most California municipalities, Humboldt already has a joint powers agreement among governments through the Redwood Coast Energy Authority, which has been in preliminary discussions to implement community choice aggregation for more than a year.

This month, Winkler met with four of the five county supervisors on the issue.

Politicians, and some others, are duly concerned that switching to a third party electricity provider may be trading in one disheartening utility for a different disheartening contractor. Lovelace said there’s a need to move cautiously. “We want to look at reasonable fees for service without seeing a lot of profits going to third parties,” he said.

Partners founder Samuel Golding said anyone who trades on the state grid has to put up a hefty sum of money to ensure viability, and, if chosen by Arcata or the county, a company would be dealing with a wholesale marketer to procure electricity for the county. In the case of Marin County (the state’s first community choice adopter), it’s Shell, a company that refuses to disclose its power sources. For parts of Sonoma County (the second to opt away from PG&E), it’s Calpine for geothermal renewable energy, and Constellation for market-rate power. Golding says that while the credit details are being worked out he expects the bulk of electricity procurement will be outsourced to another entity like Constellation or Shell, although he did not name any specific marketer.

PG&E is forbidden by law from trying to demoralize or thwart municipalities’ community choice aggregation efforts. In the past, the utility’s done exactly that, funding localized efforts and pouring $44 million into 2010’s losing Proposition 16, which would have required two-thirds voter approval for local governments to expand public utilities. PG&E spokeswoman Brittany McKannay said the utility now works with aggregators like Marin and Sonoma. But Winkler isn’t buying it.

“PG&E has repeatedly demonstrated that [it is] willing to spend large amounts of money and apply legislative muscle through their lobbyists and through [its] cozy relationship with the local chapter of the [International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers union] to try to eliminate community choice aggregators and any other competition,” he wrote. l

drive an old Honda hybrid that gets little power on the road. But lately, I’ve been borrowing my husband’s fancy Audi. It gets great power. It is amazing how differently I get treated on the road. No one ever bothered me as I puttered in the next lane in my Honda.

But when I drive the fancy car, people yell at me and give me the finger when I pass them. Just having a fancier, more powerful car seems to make them mad.

There is something about cars that brings out people’s rage. Maybe that’s what was at the heart of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that came down last week.

On June 18, the court ruled that the state of Texas can refuse to issue a special license plate with the Confederate flag on it. The 5-4 decision came as a surprise only because Justice Clarence Thomas sided with Stephen Breyer and Ruth Bader Ginsberg in ruling for Texas. I was more surprised that Texas fought the Sons of Confederate Veterans, which filed Walker v. Texas Division, in the first place.

We live in an age in which people and organizations seem to be able to buy the right to slap their name or logo on just about anything and governments and organizations seem willing to sell those rights at the right price.

I thought about that as I watched our Golden State Warriors win the NBA championship last week against the Cleveland Cavaliers in the Quicken Loans Arena. If I didn’t know better I’d have thought it was named after a check cashing business. Turns out Cleveland Cavaliers majority owner Dan Gilbert also owns the Quicken mortgage loan company. The San Francisco Giants play in AT&T Park. The Houston Astros play in Minute Maid Park.

The FC Dallas soccer team plays in Toyota Park, which used to be Pizza Hut Park.

The Corpus Christi Hooks minor league baseball team plays in Whataburger Field.

The Colorado Rapids soccer team plays in Dick’s Sporting Goods Park. I can’t help wondering when we’ll see teams play in the Ty-D-Bol.

Vehicle owners in Texas have the choice of 118 different license plate designs to choose from if they want to pay an extra 50 bucks. Those include specialty plates with backgrounds for Dr. Pepper, the Re/Max real estate company, two different ones for Ford Motor Co. and one for Mighty Fine Burgers. There are a host of organizations you can promote through your license plate including Ducks Unlimited, NASCAR and Young Lawyers.

The Sons of Confederate Veterans argued that having an organization’s name or logo on a specialty plate doesn’t mean the state of Texas endorses it. Texas argued that license plates are a form of government speech and, while the government can’t restrict individual speech, individuals can’t force government speech. Five of the justices agreed. So that means that by issuing specialty plates for $50 a pop, Texas officially wants you to drink Dr. Pepper with your Mighty Fine Burger in a Ford Tough truck while shopping for a new home with Re/Max. I’m not sure how I feel about the Supreme Court decision. I’ve been increasingly uncomfortable with corporate advertising in public spaces. But I don’t like agreeing with Clarence Thomas. And I don’t like agreeing with decisions that seem to go against First Amendment freedom of speech rights.

In a column last summer, I argued that Humboldt State shouldn’t be able to regulate what students post in their dorm rooms. If I lived in the dorm, I wrote, I’d rather know that the guy next door is the type to hang a Confederate flag in his window. If you think, as I do, that the Confederate flag in this day and age is a symbol of racism or at least sheer obliviousness to issues of race, then I say let’s have all those people label themselves in public.

Don’t you hate it when you are at a party or some event and you find yourself in a great a conversation with a really interesting man or woman only to find out that while you share the same love of movies and books, politically you are

miles apart? Wouldn’t it help if everyone who really thinks the Confederate flag should fly would publicly display it? Let’s know where we each stand. We would know how far we have to go to get beyond racism or sexism in this country if the guy who wears a t-shirt that says “I hate black people” or “Misogyny Proud” has no trouble getting laid. Confederate flag license plates would give us another way to quantify racism or at least Texas politics. Would those with the flag plates get fewer parking or speeding tickets than the bearers of the Protect Wildlife plates?

Would they get more broken windshields or slashed tires? We live in an age of Internet shaming. Would people take a picture of your car and Instagram it?

I think some of us are scared of a world in which people publicly fess up to politically or socially incorrect concepts. But I’d rather know. It’s the secret racists, misogynists and anti-Semites who scare me.

Had Dylann Roof been seen getting out of a car with a Confederate flag license plate before entering the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston on June 17, I think people would have been more guarded.

If I know where you stand I can deal with you. And if I find out that there are millions of you out there? Then I’ll know I need to find a new place to live. But it just might be that if everyone outed themselves, they would find that they are smaller in number than anyone thought.

That’s why I still believe in a marketplace of ideas. And it is why I don’t like the idea of anonymous Internet posting. If you really believe something say it, write it and don’t hide behind some fake name.

Otherwise, when you give me the finger and yell at me out on the road, I’ll just assume you are a racist, anti-Semitic woman hater. It certainly can’t be because of the way I drive. l Marcy Burstiner is chair of the Department of Journalism and Mass Communication at Humboldt State University.

Re-Christening the Golden Rule

“Hey hippie” was the tongue-in-cheek greeting on the electronic sign giving directions to the turn off to the Zerlang & Zerlang Boat Yard on Saturday, June 20.

This was the first hint that the launching ceremony of the rebuilt sailing vessel Golden Rule was going to be a special mix of humor, well-deserved pride in boat restoration and a history lesson about non-violent peaceful protest against nuclear war.

Dozens gathered to celebrate a five-year, $180,000 restoration of the 30-foot wooden sailing ketch (called “the original peace vessel”).

Leroy Zerlang, co-owner of the Samoa boat yard with his wife, Dalene, began the ceremony with a recent history of the Golden Rule.

“The boat arrived in Humboldt Bay in 1995 and was owned by a local docMICHAEL GONZALEZ, OF TRINIDAD, PAUSES FOR A MOMENT tor,” Zerlang said. He agreed ON THE REAR DECK OF THE GOLDEN RULE.

Homeowners Say Firefighters put them in Danger

A backburn lit by an incident team on the Saddle Fire reversed direction on June 12, jumping the county road to burn 150 acres of private land and threaten the lives of three Hyampom residents.

“We asked them not to light the backburn,” said Jennifer Lance, whose husband, Richard Collins, beat the blaze away from their rural home with the help of two friends and a Cal Fire crew. Their property, she said, now resembles “a moonscape.”

Northern California Incident Team 2, an interagency management team called in by the National Forest Service, took control of the firefight at 6 a.m. on the morning of June 12. At the time the Saddle Fire was less than 10 percent contained and had burned 950 acres. According to U.S. Forest Service Public Information Officer Corey Wilford, a hotshot team assessed the area and determined that the best way to combat the fire was to start a fire at the bottom of a mountain close to Lance and Collins’ property.

At around 5 p.m. Lance began getting frantic calls from her husband, asking her to call 911. The fire had jumped the road and was beginning to eat its way toward their home.

Meanwhile, Collins and his friends began to fight the fire themselves, using fire pumps and a bulldozer. One friend ran to the county road and flagged down a Cal Fire crew, which came to defend the house.

“They saved our lives,” said Collins.

Wilford said that the hotshot crew’s actions were made with

the best information possible, and that the team had no way to anticipate the sudden shift in winds. If the backfire had not been lit, he says, the initial wildfire would have jumped the road anyway, with similar results.

Lance disagrees.

“Basically, they made a very bad decision to light a burn out during afternoon winds,” she said. Collins said that he is seeking compensation for the 150 acres of timber that burned in the fire.

Hyampom Volunteer Fire Chief Joe Watkins was one of several locals who expressed their gratitude for the incident team. He said that the team in place was “very experienced” but couldn’t have anticipated the sudden shift in the wind.

“These guys are doing their damndest to stop this thing. None of it was intentional,” said Watkins.

Eureka Budget Passes

Eureka’s budget, which included the elimination of eight police services officers, was passed on June 17. The city renewed the police department’s $130,000 contract with the county animal shelter, but cut support to the Humboldt County Convention and Business Bureau by an additional $45,000, eliminated a position within the finance department, and increased zoo fees, among other changes.

Despite complaints from citizens and union representatives, no changes were made to the proposed $708,000 to be cut from Humboldt Bay Fire, which will result in the partial closing of the Station 4 on Myrtle Avenue.

Marijuana Notables in the Year’s First Big Raid

By Grant Scott-Goforth grant@northcoastjournal.com

T Get Informed

1. Choose the Right Strain Not all strains are created equal! When authorized to use medicinal cannabis, the first step is to do some research on what kind of cannabis will work best to alleviate your individual symptoms. Explore a variety of strains. If you are new to cannabis, it may be beneficial to try small amounts of different strains when you are first starting out. This will help you test different strains and different varieties (indicas, sativas, or hybrids) to find your perfect match. Indica strains relieve pain, help with insomnia etc. Hybrids slow anxiety and help you relax while still allowing you to keep moving though your day. Sativa strains get you moving and tend to have a more cerebral effect and be uplifting.

2. Choose the Best Consumption Method There are many different methods of using cannabis, but not all consumption devices or types may be ideal for you. Some forms of intake, such as smoking, can aggravate symptoms instead of delivering the medicine intended to help alleviate them. Tinctures, dabs, medibles, oils, lotions, vaporizers are all different medicating options, discuss intake options with your doctor to see which form is suggested to you. If a particular method is not working for you, try something else. We are always happy to suggest other options that may be better suited for you.

he largest law enforcement operation against Humboldt County marijuana growers of the year was underway just a day after summer began.

Officers from the Humboldt, Mendocino and Trinity county sheriff’s offices descended on Island Mountain, a remote region at the convergence of the three counties where marijuana growers have operated for decades, serving search warrants and taking down approximately 8,000 plants at three or four sites on Monday, June 22.

Humboldt County Sheriff’s Lt. Wayne Hanson said the operation would likely continue through the week, though he declined to say how many search warrants would be served in total. Agents from California Fish and Wildlife and the regional water board visited the sites as well. As of press time, Hanson said no one had been arrested and no “critical incidents” had taken place.

News of the raid reverberated through southeastern Humboldt as large convoys were spotted heading out on rural roads, and California Cannabis Voice Humboldt Executive Director Richard Marks confirmed on Tuesday morning that members of his organization were among those targeted in the raids. CCVH, as the Journal has reported, is a political action committee that’s been attempting to bring growers out of the shadows and influence local and statewide marijuana legislation. The group hosted Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom at a marijuana farm last month and has been working on a proposed ordinance for outdoor cultivation in Humboldt County that received the ire of environmental groups.

Marks said some of the CCVH’s large financial donors were the recipients of Monday’s search warrants, but he declined to say who.

Marks said the raids were “totally unexpected,” and that he was frustrated by news that CCVH members were being investigated. “I don’t understand the timing,” he said. “They’re going after — in this case — private landowners. We’ve already said we’re against trespass grows. Why

aren’t they going after the cartel grows?”

Hanson said the Island Mountain area was selected because of citizen complaints and sheriff’s office observations of the area from helicopter flyovers. He said the sites were commercial marijuana greenhouses that caused environmental damage and were likely sources of illegal water diversion. “There’s issues like this in all four corners of Humboldt County,” he said, adding that the operation is no different than busts the sheriff’s office has been running for 30 years, and that the county’s eradication efforts will continue through 2015.

Marks all but suggested that the CCVH members served in the raids were unfairly targeted, saying he had thought law enforcement had sharpened its focus on grows with illegal grading, pollution, water diversion and other environmental degradations, sites where “we’re happy that law enforcement would go after them.”

But, he said, “To go after private owners who are trying to comply — it just seems counterproductive.”

Marks, addressing rumors, said it was unclear if law enforcement targeted CCVH members for their involvement in the organization. “I sure hope not,” he said. “But then the other part of me says, [police] know who they are.”

Hezekiah Allen, the executive director of the Emerald Growers Association, expressed concerns in a press release issued the day after the raids began.

“Today, [law enforcement] activity is ever more concerning because so many of our community members have courageously stepped forward and publicly proclaimed themselves farmers. They are seeking regulation, seeking increased collaboration with government agencies and research institutions.”

Marks echoed that sentiment.

“CCVH is quite concerned,” he said.

“We’re trying to do something positive for the community. I sure hope this doesn’t harm the organization. I suppose it already has. It’s put people behind the shadows again.” ●

According to records in the Humboldt County Recorder’s Office, Durst purchased a three-story ocean-view home in Trinidad from Diane Bueche in June of 1995. “It was very rural,” Durst would tell The Jinx director Andrew Jarecki about Trinidad in an interview for the film. “Very pretty.”

Located on the corner of Van Wycke and Galindo streets, Durst’s residence — with wall-to-wall decking and full-length picture windows on each level — afforded sweeping views of Trinidad’s waterfront.

Bueche lived directly next door on Van Wycke. The outgoing, well-off Bueche was “a bon vivant” to her friends (many called her “Bo”). She owned and managed several properties in Humboldt and Trinity counties, and quickly became Durst’s friend, confidante and social guide to the North Coast. They went out to dinner, movies and cultural events.

“Bobby” Durst, as he was most frequently known, generally kept to himself, but he had a surprising charm around women. They seemed to hover over him, guarding him, maybe even wanting to “mother him,” according to one friend.

He was receptive to such affection. His own mother had committed suicide when he was 7, though not, as he would often claim, directly in front of him. Durst liked to stretch the truth on that story, too.

His first wife Kathie, was a beautiful, bright 19-year-old when they met. By the time she disappeared, Durst had taken up with Prudence Farrow, the younger sister of actress Mia and the subject of the Beatles’ White Album song, “Dear Prudence.” Some suspected that Bueche and Durst were an item in Trinidad, but no one seems to have known for sure. One police report, drafted in 2003, asserts that Durst only had sex with prostitutes since the disappearance of Kathie in 1982.

There’s no indication that Bueche and Durst’s relationship was more than platonic, though they kept in close contact with each other, even when one of them was out of town. Bueche would later say that they stayed in touch by phone, email, fax and letters. Durst, who still used his Manhattan letterhead for business communication, had stationery printed with his Trinidad address on it for local and personal correspondence.

In one letter Durst sent to Bueche (a copy of which was provided to the Journal by Matt Birkbeck, author of A Deadly Secret: The Bizarre and Chilling Story of Robert Durst), he said that he had “so much fucking energy these days I feel like the top of my head is coming off.” He cryptically mentioned rearranging the furniture in Bueche’s bedroom and upgrading his burglar alarm. He asked rhetorically,

WHEN DURST, AND BLOODY ALLEGATIONS AGAINST HIM, MADE NATIONAL HEADLINES, RUMORS QUICKLY SPREAD THROUGH TRINIDAD. PHOTO BY THADEUS GREENSON

“Do you know it is illegal to shoot your pistol in town even in self defense[?]”

In another handwritten note that Durst faxed to Bueche, he declared: “I’d love to joust with you, but you might crush me like a bug. However, if you enjoy crushing bugs, call me. … Maybe I’ll get to bite you real good before I’m cornered.”

Those who knew Durst in

Trinidad recall an odd little man (“a weird, weird dude,” said one; “a very strange guy” and “spooky,” said another) who threw his money around with a small coterie of acquaintances and talked big, but whose stories never quite added up.

Durst had told Bueche and others that he had a daughter (he did not) and that he had planned to develop property in Big Lagoon, only to run afoul of the California Coastal Commission. There’s no record of that. For a while he kept an office in Eureka’s Old Town, on E Street, though what he actually did there is anyone’s guess. At one point he claimed he was a botanist for the Pacific Lumber Company. At other times, he said he was an insurance investigator or a rare metals expert or a writer for the Wall Street Journal. None of it was true.

Durst was essentially computer illiterate and incapable of typing when he arrived in Humboldt. He put up an

advertisement for a computer tech at Humboldt State University’s career center and eventually hired a student, Michael Glass. Like most who encountered Durst in Humboldt County, Glass described him as being an “odd duck” and “eccentric.”

Because Durst was sensitive to the noise from the fans in his computer, Glass was asked to develop a routing signal from the main computer “box” on the ground floor to Durst’s office on the third floor, which required long cables and a rare boosting device. Glass said Durst once asked him if he knew anything about Durst’s family in New York (Glass did not), but didn’t discuss either his private or business life with Glass, who was then in his early 20s.

One of Glass’s memories stands out: Durst was thoroughly infatuated with Pixar’s computer-animated blockbuster, Toy Story, which was released in 1995, right around the time Durst arrived in Humboldt. Durst wanted all the imagery on his computer — the screen saver, etc. — related to Toy Story. Durst, Glass recalls, powerfully identified with the film.

One pattern of Durst’s that was continued in Trinidad was that he hired a young, high-school aged girl to serve as his housekeeper (he had done the same in New York). While law enforcement profiles of Durst usually identify his

interest in older women close to his age (like Bueche), he always had young women around him, too. Durst’s housekeeper in Trinidad had a key to his house so she could come by when Durst wasn’t there to clean up after him and his habit of throwing candy to the floor if he didn’t like it.

Records in Humboldt County indicate that in 1996 Durst provided a loan of $70,000 to a family in Trinidad for the down payment on a home, not far from an ocean-view inn that the family ran and at which Durst stayed from time to time when he was first exploring the area. They described him as “extremely polite,” having “good manners,” and being “quiet” and “always busy.” They had little contact with Durst, other than arranging the loan, and Durst charged them 15 percent interest, which they paid monthly. Within a few years they were able to secure a bank loan and paid Durst off. They had no other contact with him.

In January of 1999, Durst formed a business partnership with another couple in McKinleyville, providing them with seed money for their venture, and he filed a Uniform Commercial Code document with the California Secretary of State.

Other records obtained by investigators indicate that he was involved in an offshore continued on next page

financial consulting firm. But whatever big dreams Robert Durst had in Northern California never came to fruition.

The same December

day that Durst rode with Ross Vitalie to and from the Arcata Airport, his intimate and longtime friend, Susan Berman, a struggling writer in Los Angeles, had a conversation with one of her closest friends, actress Kim Lankford, who would later recall that Berman was especially hyper that day. In an interview with New York, Lankford said that Berman told her she was about to break a big story “that was going to blow the top off things.”

“Susie,” said her friends, was always on the verge of something, always a handful. She was the daughter of a Las Vegas mobster, Dave Berman — also known as “Davie the Jew” — a close associate of the legendary Vegas mafioso Bugsy Siegel, who had been assassinated by rival gangsters in 1947. Lankford presumed that her friend’s big revelation had something to do with mob history, maybe about who had killed Siegel.

Berman had met Durst at UCLA in the late 1960s and the two had reportedly bonded over losing a parent to violence in their childhoods. By 2000, Berman had relocated to Los Angeles and was begging her friends for money.

When Durst’s wife Kathie went missing in 1982, Berman had served as Durst’s spokesperson. Many now believe she also may have helped Durst mislead investigators. While they were no longer as close as they once were, sometime in the fall of 2000 after investigators in New York had kick-started a new investigation into Kathie’s disappearance, Durst sent Berman, now living in a run-down bungalow in Beverly Hills, two checks for $25,000 each — a $50,000 gift, he made clear, not a loan.

On the morning of Dec. 20, 2000 — the day after Vitalie had picked him up at the airport — Durst placed a pair of calls from pay phones located in Garberville, roughly 90 miles south of Trinidad, according to lead Los Angeles investigator Paul Coulter in The Jinx. His cell phone had been turned off, but Durst was heading south.

Four days later, on Christmas Eve, Berman was found face down in a pool of blood on her bedroom floor, executed by a single shot from a 9mm pistol to the back of her head. Since there had been no forced entry into Berman’s home, investigators immediately speculated that whoever killed the mobster’s daughter knew her.

Department received an anonymous note, postmarked Dec. 23 in Marina del Rey, indicating that there was a “cadaver” at Berman’s address on Benedict Canyon Drive. The note may have been anonymous, but the author left a telltale sign, spelling “Beverley Hills” incorrectly. Prior to the killing, Durst had written a letter with similar handwriting to Berman. In it, he had spelled “Beverley Hills” with an extra “e.”

December 2000 drive from Humboldt County to Los Angeles came as no surprise to investigators who followed the Durst case closely. On Halloween of 2000, Durst received a tip that law enforcement officials in New York had re-opened the case of Kathie Durst’s disappearance 18 years earlier.

The heat was back on. On Nov. 15, Durst called an apartment owner in Galveston, Texas, on behalf of a “deafmute woman,” Dorothy Ciner (one of Durst’s many aliases), looking to rent a two-room apartment for $300 per month.

Durst was setting up shop in Galveston even before he had cleared out of Humboldt County.

Durst’s erratic behavior during this time was also noted in Trinidad, where his confidante Diane Bueche began to feel uneasy. At first she defended Durst when television crews came to town in the spring of 2001 for the ABC shows Vanished and Prime Time, saying that Durst was “the victim of a ruthless press.” Durst had suggested that she watch Unsolved Mysteries, which featured a segment on his missing wife. Perhaps, Bueche later speculated, that was to deter her concern.

By the fall of 2001, however, when Durst went on the lam following the killing of Morris Black, Bueche became more than a little concerned. There had been an alleged sighting of Durst at Bueche’s campground on the Trinity River, although this was never confirmed. Bueche eventually contacted Journal publisher Judy Hodgson to tell her the Durst story. She told Hodgson that she was “ill and dying of cancer” and that she “felt a little duped or stupid for originally taking Durst’s side.”

A few months later, in February of 2002, a psychic by the name of Barbara Stamps told the New York Post that she began “picking up on dark energy” at Durst’s former Trinidad home and “had very strong feelings that a murder had

On May 11, 1995, Durst was pulled over in Mendocino after drinking a bottle of wine at the upscale Beaujolais Restaurant, Officers found marijuana and $3,700 in cash in Durst’s trunk, and he failed a series of field sobriety tests.

Little more than two years

after Durst was arrested in Mendocino and had settled into his ocean-view digs in

Trinidad, a 16-year-old high school student from Eureka — Karen Marie Mitchell — was declared missing after visiting her aunt’s shoe store at the Bayshore Mall on the south side of town. The Mitchell case both captivated and galvanized the community. Over the next several years, numerous leads were exhausted, and several suspects were identified, though nothing came to fruition.

Although it’s not clear when Durst first came onto the radar of Eureka investigators, newspaper records indicate Mitchell’s aunt and legal guardian Annie Casper (with whom she was residing at the time of her disappearance), first publicly identified Durst as a suspect in the Mitchell case in December of 2001. “[Durst’s] been in our store twice, which I thought was kind of odd,” Casper was quoted as saying in a newspaper. On at least one occasion when Durst was in Casper’s store, according to a former store employee, he was dressed as a woman.

According to multiple sources close to the case, EPD investigators had their eyes on another suspect, a Humboldt County trucker named Wayne Adam Ford, who eventually confessed to killing four womcontinued on next page

Years earlier, Durst had been

one who watched The Jinx, Durst uttered to a cop that “the money and marijuana is mine and I have always smoked it, even as a kid. So what’s the big deal?”

After he left the Durst Organization in 1994, Durst had assumed an even more bizarre lifestyle than the one he maintained in New York. He had residences all over the country: in New York, Florida, Texas, Louisiana, and California. He liked frequenting the skid row neighborhoods in various cities (including Eureka), often hanging out with the homeless and down and out.

In addition to his home in Trinidad, Durst also owned two upscale townhouses in San Francisco. “He’d fly from Texas to California to Louisiana then back to Florida then Texas again,” said Cody Cazalas, the lanky mustachioed investigator from Galveston, Texas, who appeared in The Jinx. “He was extremely mobile.

And very secretive about his movements.

Two or three days was about it in any one place. He was all over the charts.”

Robert Durst had become a very difficult guy to track down.

been committed” there, directly next door to Bueche’s residence. Stamps said that she had “mental images” of the home as early as May 16, 2000 — long before the killings of Berman and Black.

Once again, Durst’s name was in the headlines and residents in Trinidad became anxious. Many worried that they had recently had a murderer in their midst. Only months after the psychic identified Durst’s home, Diane Bueche was found dead in the master bedroom next door. She had committed suicide, firing a single shot through her head with a Smith & Wesson .357 revolver. The coroner’s report indicated that she had been despondent over a cancer diagnosis. Durst was in custody in Texas at the time.

continued from previous page en (but adamantly denied killing Mitchell).

Moreover, federal investigators apparently told local law enforcement that flight manifests indicated Durst wasn’t in Eureka on the day Mitchell went missing. (Later investigators discovered that Durst may have been covering his tracks by purchasing airline tickets that he didn’t use and flying under false names.)

Shortly before Mitchell went missing in 1997, there was another disappearance

of a young woman in Northern California, Kristen Modafferi, an 18-year-old student from North Carolina visiting the Bay Area for the summer. One of the suspects in the Modafferi case fit a similar profile to Durst, particularly in respect to crossdressing and prowling around homeless shelters. Oakland Police investigators felt there might be a connection.

Although Bay Area investigators didn’t have sufficient evidence to pursue Durst

in respect to Modafferi’s disappearance, they felt that there was reason to pursue Durst further in the Karen Mitchell’s case.

According to A Deadly Secret, the East Bay investigators believed that Durst was in Humboldt County on Nov. 25, 1997, the day of Mitchell’s disappearance. In 2003 they subpoenaed credit card and Federal Express records that seemed to confirm that belief.

One of the investigators, John Bradley,

interviewed a woman then incarcerated in a San Francisco jail, Sheli C., who had lived in Humboldt County during the same period that Durst was living in Trinidad.

A drug addict and a prostitute, Sheli had been arrested on narcotics charges.

Bradley had a hunch that she might know something about the Mitchell disappearance. She didn’t.

But when Bradley showed Sheli a picture of Durst, she recognized him immediately from Eureka, where, she said, Durst had frequented a homeless shelter only a couple of blocks from the office he kept in Old Town. “Karen Mitchell’s aunt and guardian,” Bradley declared in a report from 2003, “told me Mitchell volunteered at [a shelter in Old Town] for a brief period.”

Sheli said that Durst’s “pattern” was to hang around the shelter for a while, disappear for a couple of months, “then he would return to loitering around the homeless shelter.”

There had also been a composite sketch drawn of someone who may have been driving a car that Mitchell got into the day of her disappearance. A witness, Randell J. Gomes, had stepped forward months after the girl’s disappearance, and the sketch looked like Durst — down to his oversized wire-rimmed glasses — so much so that Bradley believed the informant had to have known Durst.

The last thing Sheli said to Bradley was that “weird people get tired of doing normal stuff.” The line struck a chord with Bradley. Then Sheli went on the lam — and Gomes, according to a police report, left town for Idaho. The case went cold.

In the aftermath

of Durst’s arrest last month, Andy Mills, the city’s recently appointed police chief, has quietly reopened the Karen Mitchell case.

Mills describes the Mitchell investigation as “reinvigorated and active,” and said that while he was unable to identify any new evidence involving Durst, that Durst was in “the mix” as a suspect. More recently, Mills told me that that there was a renewed collaboration between the EPD and one of the Bay Area investigative units.

The FBI has also assembled an unofficial nationwide task force specifically looking at a multitude of unsolved murders and disappearances where Durst has lived, stretching back more than 40 years. Mills said EPD is collaborating in this effort, as well.

Several law enforcement officials think Durst may be a serial killer. In the cases of his wife Kathie, Susan Berman and Morris Black, he may have had overt motives to kill them. With the others, the motiva-

Durst’s defense attorneys have repeatedly denied his involvement in all of these murders. In a recent motion filed in New Orleans, his defense team challenged the legality of the search warrant that led to his current incarceration and they have also contested the handwriting evidence linking him to Berman’s killing in Los Angeles.

At the end of The Jinx, in which he reportedly provided the producers 25 hours of interviews, Durst stepped into a bathroom and mutters into a hot microphone what many have taken as a rambling confession: “There it is. You’re caught. You’re right, of course. But you can’t imagine. Arrest him. ... What the hell did I do? Killed them all, of course.”

Whether he’s found guilty in a court of law, however, remains to be seen. His flight to the Arcata Airport in December of 2000 and the Garberville phone calls will figure prominently during his future trial in Los Angeles. But when it comes to Robert Durst and a courtroom — where mere speculation is stripped down to what’s provable beyond a reasonable doubt — nothing is certain. Durst has beaten a murder rap once before. ● Geoffrey Dunn is an award-winning filmmaker and investigative journalist from Santa Cruz.

SUSHI SPOT’S SPICY LITTLE GOOSE POINT WINNER.

A

t 10 a.m., sitting around a window table at Mazzotti’s, we got our instructions (no alcohol, score everything), got our multi-colored ballots and started eating.

This year, the 25th anniversary of the Arcata Bay Oyster Festival, was my first time judging. There were some 19 entries for raw and cooked oysters to award up to 20 points each: 10 possible points for flavor, five for presentation and five for creativity. And while it’s gluttonous fun, the chefs put blood, sweat and vinaigrette into their offerings. Awards carry marketing weight.

As a chef, the deck is stacked against you. Josh Wiley, head chef at Abruzzi, was sympathetic, noting how hard it is to put your best food forward while feeding a sprawling line of customers from a mobile kitchen. And we judges were a motley group, each with biases, individual tastes and haunting memories of perfect oysters we ate once upon a time. Are you entering the same dish as last year? Because according to Official Oyster Babe Rachel Hoeflein-Lay, Cliff Berkowitz of KMUD, who shared his vote with his 14-year-old son, has been judging “since the dinosaurs.” And Andrew Goff of Lost Coast Outpost admitted to not being wild about oysters in the first place, saying it just made him that much harder to impress.

So how the hell do you win this thing?

Start with good oysters. At my right, chef Brett Shuler of Bret Shuler Fine Catering shook his head at several oysters the flavor and texture of which weren’t up to snuff, or that didn’t slide from their shells. (Shuck carefully, people.) Most of the judges enjoyed the extravagance of an entry dotted with uni and four kinds of roe, Donald Forrest declared it “a nightmare. … The oyster wasn’t good. … It was lipstick on a pig.”

JENNIFER FUMIKO CAHILL

Bigger isn’t always better. In fact, judges reached for the smaller oysters. Journal Table Talk contributor Jada Calypso Brotman, representing Mad River Union, frowned at a bivalve’s poached-egg of a belly. “Ugh. That is just too big.” Few cared for the grilled oyster with barbecue sauce, but the fact that in the shell it resembled a heavy little man who’d displaced his bathwater made it worse.

Presentation matters. One grim entry came in a shot glass of swampy, brown liquid. (Like many things, oysters are less attractive when pressed up against glass.)

Another homely oyster showed up with a sad little lemon wedge impaled by a wooden stick. It was delicious, but as junior high and going outside have taught us, looks matter. On the other end of the spectrum was the steam-punk carousel that spun half shells around a miniature diving helmet. Sure, the motion dislodged a few ingredients, but it was fun.

Presentation isn’t everything. A board of snow-cone cups packed with pankofried oysters and bacon topped with mole sauce drew gasps, but enthusiasm fizzled.

“That’s just a chocolate sauce,” groused Shuler. “They don’t know what mole is.”

The oyster was too tough, its flavor clashed with the heavy sweetness of the sauce, and my bacon was fried to a powder.

Let’s not get crazy. A flood of ingredients or sauce can overwhelm. At one point, Brotman uttered the words “too much butter,” and I half expected Paula Deen to appear at the table like the ghost in Macbeth. If you’re using the word “smothered,” turn back. And while I liked the multi-roe and uni extravaganza that Forrest hated, all those luxe elements became indistinguishable.

The oyster is the star, not you. Branding yielded eye rolling. Upon reading one description, several judges wondered aloud, “What’s a Humboldt Made oyster,

anyway?” And while it makes sense for a brewery to tap into its taps, nearly everyone — even the few who liked it — found it gimmicky and forced.

Cook gently. Several judges at the table said they preferred raw in general, and the cooked entries that got the best reactions weren’t grilled or fried to hell.

They were warm and custard-like instead of chewy, and retained the briny flavor of their liquors.

Creativity is tough. Most of us really want the simplest thing: a fresh oyster with a little lemon. So how do you invent and still please? Tweak without getting wacky. The nori in the winning cooked entry was a natural pairing, but novel for the toasted crunch of the seaweed, which distracted from slightly gummy rice. And breaking the rules is risky. When a white oyster pizza with bacon showed up, Wiley said, “Fish and cheese are not allowed on the same plate in my kitchen.” But I loved the dual richness against the bite of thinsliced lemon on it. Again, individual tastes.

When the judging was through, Greg Dale from Coast Seafood was outside offering judges a taste of the barbecued Kumomotos his team had withdrawn in favor of selling. He’d tasted the Folie Douce oyster and knew he couldn’t beat it. In fact, Folie Douce did win Best Cooked Oyster with its surprising grilled Kumomoto over toasted nori with wasabi, plum paste and scallions. Sushi Spot took Best Raw with a Goose Point topped with fried garlic, yuzu tobiko and Japanese chile — bright and spicy with a crunch. But the oyster I took from Dale’s hand after watching him pick it from the grill and top with sauce from a battered pot was just as fine, sweet and clean tasting, topped with a tangy orange sauce that brought out the creaminess of the oyster. And you can’t beat that presentation. l

Dell’Arte’s Mary Jane: The Musical III

By Kate Haley

frontrow@northcoastjournal.com

WILL BE CLOSED FOR THE HOLIDAY

FRIDAY, JULY 3RD PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR COPY FOR THE JULY 9TH EDITION BY

5 PM THURSDAY, JULY 2ND

M

y favorite word is “quiddity.” It refers to the defining characteristic of someone or something — that which makes something what it is. A play is an opportunity to explore and hopefully express the innate essence of a person or place. Humboldt County has many defining attributes — the rugged coast, the ancient redwoods, an independent and innovative population. And weed.

Whether you love it, hate it, or couldn’t care less about it, there is no denying marijuana’s entrenched role in our culture and economy. Developed by ensemble members and directed by Michael Fields, Mary Jane: The Musical III wholeheartedly embraces the sticky issue — seeds, stems and all — as it returns to the stage in this renewed age of cultivation controversy.

The ensemble starts the show off with a rousing musical review of cannabis culture hits through the ages. Joan Schirle reprises her role as Mary Jane and by the time the story begins and she graces the stage, the audience is primed for reefer related revelry. Cast members portray a range of pot personalities and recognizable community figures as they perform numbers that draw upon nearly every musical style. Much of the first act stays safely in the realm of the cute and kitschy — tie-dye and bedazzled bongs abound

30 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, JUNE 25, 2015 • northcoastjournal.com

— but as the show progresses, the songs become increasingly message laden.

Mary Jane is infused throughout with Dell’Arte’s signature commitment to silliness and provides ample opportunity for the cast to show off its skilled physicality. It is also a sincere social commentary on the unique culture of our community. As it entertains, it honestly presents the conflicted and passionate opinions people hold about marijuana. Numbers like “Grow Inside,” a ballad of indoor and outdoor plants, and “Humboldt Honey,” a toast to the local ladies, are pure frivolous fun.

The themes are far harder hitting in “The Industry” and “Ghost Town,” as the harsh realities and consequences of the lifestyle are examined. On opening night I sat behind two adorable young children watching in rapt attention as the cast performed “Officer and Child,” a song about kids raised by parents who grow pot. The moment grew especially poignant. Please don’t be mistaken — the show is most definitely both family-friendly and a comedy, one that invites us to think honestly and critically about our community. In the end, the piece presents both an engaging, fun story and what feels like sincere strategies for continuing to ask — and attempt to answer — these questions together.

The talented cast is backed by the onstage band led by Tim Randles. The consistently strong choreography is by

Laura Munoz, and Tim Gray provides music direction and sound design. Costume design is by Lydia Foreman with scenic design provided by Daniel Spencer. An interesting note — Dell’Arte is already working on the next incarnation of this ongoing project, Mary Jane: a Musical Potumentary, which will bring all the puff and circumstance to the big screen.

Mary Jane: The Musical III runs through July 5 with performances Thursday through Sunday at 8 p.m. The production takes the stage in Dell’Arte’s outdoor Rooney Amphitheatre. It does get chilly as the sun sets, so dress in warm clothing and bring a blanket or lawn chair for seating. It is recommended to show up 30 to 45 minutes before the show to stake out a spot on the lawn. Tickets are $18 general admission. For more information, call 668-5663.

Upcoming:

Sylvia opens at Ferndale Repertory Theatre on June 26. This comedy about a New York couple whose lives are upended after they take in a saucy poodle-lab mix named Sylvia runs through July 12. For more information call 786-5483.

The 25th annual Mad River Festival continues at Dell’Arte through July 19.

Enjoy diverse and engaging performances from local and international artists.

Requiem for a Dream A psychedelic, spacey start to summer

WHO: Technicolor Hearts WHEN: Saturday, June 27 at 9 p.m.

WHERE: Palm Lounge TICKETS: $5 donation

By Jennifer Savage thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

H

ello. Happy summer. Please go outside, report back, then attend some of these fine shows.

Friday

A gentle hit The weekend proper starts off with a full evening of psychedelic alt rock as L.A.’s Mild High Club and Hemingway play Blondie’s, along with Humboldt’s Something Simple. First, let’s take a moment to appreciate the fine play on words: “Mild High” Club — ha! Okay. The Club is the musical output of one Alexander Brettin, and sounds like you’re on drugs in hazy, dreamy, lazy-brained way. If you dig 13th Floor Elevators, Brian Jonestown Massacre, e.g., you may want to haul yourself over to check it out. DJ Positive Idiaz spins at 7 p.m., and the night goes on from there. Doors open 6:30 p.m. Tickets are $7 and are available at the Works, People’s Records and Wildberries — get $2 off admission at the door if you bring a can of food to donate to Food for People.

Just can’t get enough Humboldt’s own-personal-Jesus-witha-turntable DJ Red will stand and deliver you back to 1980s dance hall days at Richard’s Goat. He’ll spin you right round (like a record), taking you one step beyond, until you’ll find yourself gazing into the mirror in the bathroom, face flushed, but don’t worry — you’re pretty in pink. This party out of bounds begins at 9 p.m., no cover.

Saturday

Sing out More than 20 of retiring professor Harley Muilenburg’s students pay tribute to the instructor’s 32 years of teaching Humboldt State students to sing. They join HSU Music department faculty performers, including pianist Daniela Mineva and violinist Cindy Moyer, in a celebratory retirement concert, free and open to the public at 7 p.m. in HSU’s Fulkerson Recital Hall.

Locals night in A-town The Mother Vines bring the surf-psych punk rock and Super Demon delivers the Macktown math metal at the Alibi. Music at 11 p.m., $3 cover, 21-and-over.

Eureka delights Austin’s magnificently eerie-folky-rocky Technicolor Hearts play with local favorites The Monster Women and Strix Vega at the Palm Lounge, 9 p.m., 21-and-over, $5 suggested donation.

Sunday

Reggae rulers The Green’s latest album, Hawai’i ’13, opens with a chant because, according to guitarist, vocalist and one of the band’s five songwriters JP Kennedy, “From the times of ancient Hawaii and even up to present day, chanting has been a part of our culture. It’s a way to start something important. When we chant, we ask for blessings, knowledge and guidance so

that we can be ‘pono’ or righteous in whatever we do.” The chant prepares the listener as much as the band. Hawai’i ’13 dances through roots reggae, soul and R&B — a logical sound for a band that’s supported Rebelution, Iration, SOJA and Damian Marley, and has played at the Vans Warped Tour, Wakarusa, Sierra Nevada World Music Festival and California Roots Festival. The Green plays the Arcata Theatre Lounge along with the Expanders, known for reggae centered in three-part vocal harmonies and strong songwriting, with lyrics that range from socially heavy to playful and upbeat, in the tradition of classic 1970s Jamaican groups like the Ethiopians, the Gladiators and the Mighty Diamonds, Doors open at 7 p.m., show starts at 8 p.m. Tickets are $20 advance at Ticketfly, Wildberries, People’s Records and the Works, $25 at the door. The show is 21-and-over.

Monday

Because we like these descriptions An unusual show at Richards’ Goat features Shelter Death, best known for an ability to “utilize alien programming, heavy electronics and pained instrumentation that makes for a tragic and austere peal.” Do with that what you will. Also performing: Pod Blotz and Glochids, plus Humboldt’s DL Mathias doing “synthesizers for shut-ins” and DJ interludes provided by Ensemble Economique. Show starts at 9 p.m., 21 and over, $5.

Tuesday

Goth karaoke Yes, goth karaoke. At Siren’s Song, with a selection that includes Siouxsie and the Banshees, Sisters of Mercy, Christian Death, Nina Hagen, Bauhaus, Sex Gang Children, the Cure, Virgin Prunes, Xmal Deutschland, Specimen, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, 45 Grave and what more do you need? Event organizers note that the Siren’s Song bar “is now equipped with wine for all you vampires that need a bit of blood before you get up on stage!” No surprise to also note that “debauchery is encouraged.” Resident DJs Wrye and Decoffinated in attendance. All ages, free, 9 p.m.

‘Fare Thee Well’ So there’s some final Dead shows? We’ll trust you fans know what’s happening with that, but we do care enough to make sure you know you can see them in HDTV and on the big movie screen at the Jambalaya. Dressing in Deadhead attire gets you a drink deal. Should be supercool if it’s your thing. Free, June 27 through July 5. Hit up the Jam for details, 822-4766.

29 monday Small-town, summertime fairs are the birthplaces of many potent childhood memories -- from first kisses to first-place ribbons, to winning that coveted stuffed animal to the thrill of sitting high above the crowd on a Ferris wheel. The lights, sights, smells and sounds are magical. And folks, the first fair of the year is here.

The Best of Humboldt Fair, running June 25 to June 28 at Redwood Acres Fairgrounds, offers four days of family fun guaranteed to unleash the kid in everyone. In addition to cotton candy and the carnival, this year’s fair features several special attractions. There’s the Kidz Science Safari, the Aussie Kingdom with its too cute, touchable kangaroos, wallabies and walleroos, and free concerts by up-andcoming country music star McKenna Faith. Nature Joe’s on hand with his Animal Exhibit, the Birdman Bird Show soars with free-flying condors and other avians, and for the adrenaline junkies, there’s flat track motorcycle racing and BMX freestyle stunt performances.

Take advantage on Thursday, June 25 when admission to the fair is free until 3 p.m. Admission for most days is $10 adults, $5 seniors and kids. Active military personnel and veterans get in free. Carnival wristbands, ride tickets and events at the grandstand are purchased separately. See www.redwoodacres. com for more details and special admission prices.

Let your inner kid run free, but be careful when combining chili dogs, funnel cakes, root beer floats and rides with names like “Hammer Time” and “The Typhoon.” That’s one memory you don’t want to take with you.

Raise the Ruff

PHOTO BY WARREN COOK, COURTESY OF LOST COAST KENNEL CLUB

The Humboldt County Fairgrounds bounces to furry, fluffy, wet-nosed life as pure-bred pooches and their owners strut their stuff at the Lost Coast Kennel Club Dog Show from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Friday, June 26 and Saturday, June 27, and from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday, June 28 (free entry, $5 parking). From Affenpinschers to Wirehaired Pointing Griffons, there’s plenty of prancing on this year’s doggit.

The annual show features three days of canine conformation, obedience and rally competitions. The kennel club’s Tina Molten estimates about 500 dogs from all over the country will be on the fairgrounds each day, and some will go on to compete at the Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show. (That’s plenty, so please leave your own dogs at home.)

While it’s a great place to learn about dog breeds, Molten says it’s best to ask questions after people have shown their dogs. Excitement and focus run high beforehand (think Best in Show and the busy bee toy).

Individual breed judging starts in the morning, with group judging and Best in Show in the afternoon. The obedience and rally events feature all-American breeds, as well as the pure-breds. There is also the K9 Good Citizen event (good dog!), fun runs on a track with a lure, and Therapy Dog rating — a new event this year.

There’ll be vendors on hand and a raffle benefiting local dog organizations. Money from last year’s raffle went toward a Kevlar vest for an Arcata police dog and this year it’ll help a child in need get a therapy dog.

Emotional Rollercoaster Inside Out’s beautiful mind

By Jennifer Savage filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

Browse by title, times and theater.

INSIDE OUT. It all makes so much sense now, how at times we’re steamrolled by anger, buoyed by joy, puddled by sadness, paralyzed by fear and/or caught up in disgust. Never has a movie described the inner workings of our emotional lives with as much clarity, charm and poignancy as Pixar’s latest, Inside Out. One of the unexpected rewards of having children is the pleasure of reading with them, especially when you get to the young adult novel phase, even if they prefer to read curled up in their own space instead of snuggled against you — because if they are reading the books, you can, too. Novels written for adolescents finally, thanks to the Harry Potter series, have earned the respect they’ve long been refused, so that even people without children know The Hunger Games, The Fault in Our Stars and City of Bones. The thing that books aimed at this age group can do is get dark, get real, speak to the fears that erupt during this era between childhood and adulthood, and yet also offer hope and, sometimes, a happy ending that would be dismissed as maudlin and predictable in something written for the grownup set.

Pixar has excelled at capturing in film that same sweet spot between the giddy, carefree, in-the-moment magnificence of a child at play and the crushing, overwhelming heartache of someone who has suddenly learned that the world can be a terrifying and unsure thing. The movies are aimed, ostensibly, at a younger age group, but thematically, those of us on the other side, we of once-soft hearts now hardened with layer upon layer of scar tissue, we are the ones those Pixar wizards have crafted their movies to pierce. Inside Out is as profound as Toy Story, as sweet as Wall-E and as insightful as The Incredibles. You do not need a child to see this movie. (I do recommend

HAVE YOU NOT SEEN OUR OPENING BOX OFFICE NUMBERS?

borrowing one if possible — to watch simultaneously through your own jaded eyes and those still veiled by wonderment as the movie jacks up the emotion meter to nearly unbearable levels, which is something all people need on occasion to remind us of our humanity.)

On to the plot! Riley is a content Minnesota girl, loves hockey and her parents.

We go inside her mind — “Headquarters” — where five emotions work to keep Riley happy. Joy (voiced by Amy Poehler, Leslie Knope-style) runs the show, with help from Disgust (Mindy Kaling, wonderfully), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). Joy’s purpose is clear, and Fear, Anger and Disgust all serve to keep Riley safe in different ways.

Sadness, however, not only lacks a defined role, but gets in the way and messes up Joy’s efforts to keep Riley cheerful, frustrating the other emotions. At one point, Joy, attempting to protect Riley from Sadness’ inadvertent effects, draws a circle on the ground and instructs Sadness to stay inside it. Anyone who’s been told to keep a happy face on or to “turn that frown upside down,” will understand the bigger theme here. And as the movie unfolds, with Riley suddenly uprooted to San Francisco as her father pursues a new career, the usefulness of Sadness gradually shimmers into understanding.

But don’t worry, plenty of comic relief spins in and out of the story along the way and the design of Riley’s inner being is brilliantly illustrated. As memories are created, the most important ones are stored in Headquarters, where they provide power for the five “islands” representing different aspects of Riley’s personality. There’s Goofball Island, Family Island, Friendship Island, Hockey Island and Honesty Island. (Quick — what are your islands?) Faded memories are cleared out by “mind workers” and tossed into the “memory dump,” a black abyss from which nothing returns. Through a series of

events, Joy and Sadness are transported from Headquarters to Riley’s long-term memory, and as they wind their way back, we see how some memories stay and some go, how once-beloved memories end up in the dump — it’s a behind-thescenes tour as Riley is wrenched from her childhood bliss to a place where the point of silliness has been lost. (If you’ve watched your once-sweet child turn into a surly preteen, the collapse of Goofball Island will likely send you descending into tears.) The fact that Anger, Disgust and Fear are the only emotions left to run the show in the meantime means Riley’s unhappiness continues to spiral until eventually she becomes numb to feeling entirely. The transformation is so well done that, sure as I was that a happy ending was inevitable — it’s a children’s movie, after all — I began to worry how the filmmakers were going to pull it off.

(For the record, my 5-year-old friend was as enraptured, but far less concerned.) The amount of grist for the mill is as plentiful as the entertainment value and the effects of Inside Out on your own brain are likely to linger in the best and most Joy-ful ways. PG. 94m.

Who’s for Dinner?

By Anthony Westkamper humbug@northcoastjournal.com

Solitary Wasps

Not being a team sports guy, I prefer the solitary wasps. They are parasitoids, so unlike those of fleas and vampires, the wasp’s hosts invariably die at the end of the relationship. Think of the monster in the Sigourney Weaver Alien movies. After mating, the female wasp hunts for suitable food for its offspring. Many of the tiniest find a host like a caterpillar and inject eggs directly into it. That victim will carry on its life while the larvae consume its innards. I have found dead caterpillars with dozens of tiny cocoons sticking out all over it. Many build nests like the mud dauber or mason wasps.

A little black wasp digs a hole in the ground and hunts spiders as large as she is, diligently dragging them back to her lair. At that point there is no hope for the hapless arachnid. The wasp’s venom is totally paralytic and won’t wear off, so even if the wasp abandons her prey it is doomed. Usually, though, she gets it to the nest, lays an egg on or near it, and then seals up the cave. Alone, paralyzed in the dark, the spider awaits the grub that will consume it, saving essential organs for last, thereby keeping the meat supply alive and fresh as long as possible.

Curiously, the adults do not eat meat, but consume nectar from flowers.

The often brilliantly metallic colored cuckoo wasps are kleptoparasites that lay their eggs in the brood chambers of other bees or wasps. Their larvae eat the host’s egg or larva, then consume the provisions furnished by the adults. The strangely shaped leucospid wasps are hyper-parasitoids, using their long ovipositor to inject their egg into the brood cells of bees or other wasps.

THE CALIFORNIA SISTER, BEAUTIFUL, BUT NOT TASTY. PHOTO BY ANTHONY WESTKAMPER

The Admiral and the Sister

Out in my backyard I saw a butterfly flying low, straight and fast, too fast to identify perfectly. It landed half way up a redwood tree and proceeded to open and close its wings, displaying its striking markings, still too far away to identify perfectly. That’s because there are two species of similar size, color and flight habit living here. They’re not closely related, but they do look alike. It was either a California Sister (Adelpha californica), or Lorquin’s Admiral (Limenitis lorquini). The latter is named for a French naturalist who came to California during the Gold Rush.

Together, the pair is an excellent example of the scientific phenomenon known as Batesian mimicry.

The larvae of the sister feeds almost exclusively on oaks, which makes them unpalatable to predators. The admiral dines on willow, poplar, cherry and other trees. Although I have never actually sampled one, I understand they are edible. In flight, the two species are nearly indistinguishable. The fastest and easiest way I have learned to tell sisters from admirals is by the position of the orange patch at the tips of the front wings. The sister’s are bordered by brown, while the orange on the admiral’s extends almost to the very edge. Hard to make out at 20 miles per hour or displaying its wings 50 feet up in a tree.

I have seen members of both species chase one another. While it might be territoriality (both species are known for this trait), I choose to believe it was a matter of mistaken identity. l
