#ThisIsAbsolutelyUs Why we are Charlottesville and Charlottesville is us

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill and Thadeus Greenson newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

I

t was with a deepening sense of horror that we watched the events in Charlottesville, Virginia, unfold last weekend, giving generations-old images of hate and violence new 21st century life. The torches. The robes. The Confederate and Nazi flags. The eyes filled with hate and the tongues spitting bigotry.

Billy clubs, helmets and shields. Premeditated violence. Then, finally, the gut punch: broken glass, bodies flying, blood and empty shoes on the pavement.

Soon after came the feel-good hashtag, #ThisIsNotUs, a social media platitude to distance ourselves from the horror, allowing us to go back to our lives. We’re sorry to say it’s not that simple, and sorrier to say that this is absolutely us. It may not be you or me carrying torches or driving that car into the crowd, but this is us, collectively, as a nation. And it always has been.

It’s impossible to understand this moment in time without openly acknowledging that the soil of this great nation is steeped in the blood of brown and black people, our cities and national wealth erected with the machinery of systemic, government-sanctioned genocide, human trafficking and slavery. And these weren’t moments of original sin, as our former president so eloquently dubbed them, but prevailing cultures that held — and still hold — that some people are intrinsically more valuable than others.

Despite hallowed words on a parchment signed 200 years ago, discrimination, fear and hatred have continued to define this nation. It was only 50 years ago that federal action untied the web of local Jim Crow laws in the South, the legacies of which are still visible to this day. So make no mistake, the violence we saw unfold in Charlottesville this past weekend is woven into the fabric of this nation, stretching back to early colonials massacring Natives and those first slave ships reaching our Atlantic shores in the early 1600s.

Fortunately, voices for love, equality and inclusion are also threads in that fabric, and generations of people of color of

have bravely and unflinchingly challenged this nation to live up to the lofty ideals Thomas Jefferson — himself a slave owner — enshrined in this nation’s founding document, penning the “self-evident” truth that “all men are created equal.” But their work is far from finished and forever on slippery footing, as history teaches us the road to true equality isn’t straight.

After all, German Quakers near Philadelphia wrote a petition calling for the abolition of slavery in 1688 — almost a century before Jefferson and others would sign the Constitution, which allowed slavery to continue and essentially ascribed blacks three-fifths the value of their white counterparts. The bloodiest war in American history brought slavery to an end, only to see sharecropping and Jim Crow take its place. When the U.S. Supreme Court decided in 1954 that school segregation was antithetical to our Constitution, it took a decade — and the National Guard — to enforce the ruling.

This is us. The realities of life in America for religious minorities and people of color have often run counter to our national aspirations, to who and what we want and profess to be. Nonetheless, scores of social movements have incrementally pushed the needle to the point that some of us here on the North Coast can see torches, hoods and racially motivated violence in far-away Virginia and declare, “This is not us.” But what we saw in Charlottesville over the weekend is just the latest battle in a centuries-old war for America’s soul. It laid bare that we haven’t made the progress many have claimed or felt because we still live in a culture where some will light torches while loudly, publicly proclaiming their inherent value is greater than that of people who don’t look like them.

So what do we do about this? It’s simple. We fight. Or rather, we keep fighting and we stand up to be counted.

Here in Humboldt County, where hundreds of people of all hues encircled Arcata City Hall in protest just a few

months back to say they don’t feel safe in this community, that means condemning hate speech, ignorance and bigotry loudly and unequivocally when and where you hear it, whether that be a public space or a friend’s living room. If you are white, it means having uncomfortable conversations with relatives, neighbors and people you love. It means not leaving this work to people of color, religious minorities and LGBTQ folks. It means understanding that the fear people of color feel in this community is real and likely growing after the sight of Sieg Heil salutes, burning torches and Klansmen’s robes unabashedly descending on Charlottesville.

And, here in Humboldt, this means understanding that the Confederate flag on your truck — while it may be a symbol of southern pride or an abiding love of Lynyrd Skynyrd to you — is a sign of hate, an artifact of institutionalized slavery, discrimination and dehumanization. Because lines are being drawn, know that your flag flies beside swastikas and white power symbols and it puts you in the same camp as white nationalists, Vanguard American and whatever else Nazis call themselves these days. In many of our eyes, it signals that you mean us and the people we love harm. If that bothers you, take the flag down. Scrape off the bumper sticker.

Repaint your truck. Cover that tattoo. (If you need to crowd fund the makeover, we’ll donate.)

We are entering a critical juncture in this centuries-old fight, one where hate groups feel confident enough to shed the hoods of the past. In the aftermath of Charlottesville, the neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer issued a chilling call to arms.

“And to everyone, know this: We are now at war,” it stated. “And we are not going to back down. … We are going to go bigger than Charlottesville. We are going to go huge. We are going to take over the country. … We learned a lot today. And we are going to remember what we learned.

This has only just begun.”

They are right about one thing: We are

at war. But to be clear, it’s not a war that will be won with violence — if that were the case, it would have ended when the Confederate flag fell in 1865 or when allied forces toppled Nazi Germany in 1945. And it is not a war that will be won in the halls of Congress or at the Resolute desk in the Oval Office, where the Voting Rights Act was signed into law more than 50 years ago. Instead, this is a fight that will be won a day at a time, at dinner tables, local meeting halls and on the streets of our communities. It’s a war that will play out in our hearts and minds — in our neighborhoods, schools, kitchens and coffee shops.

And we need to remember that the fight is much closer than we might like.

Those torch-wielding bigots descended on Virginia from all over the country, from Berkeley to New York. And as we write this, white nationalist groups are planning rallies later this month in the Bay Area.

This war is destined to continue on until the Richard Spencers, David Dukes and Jason Kesslers of our country are marginalized and ostracized, left to crawl back into the holes from which they came, and their ilk realize there’s no refuge for hate speech in a public place.

So on behalf of Humboldt County: White supremacists/white nationalists/ Nazis, your ideology, your hate speech and your flags are not welcome here.

Martin Luther King Jr. once said — and our former president was fond of repeating — that the “arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.”

That’s true, but it’s also true that history tells us that arc only bends when pushed by regular people. People like you. l Jennifer Fumiko Cahill is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

‘Illusion?’

Editor: As I sit here pondering the theses of Misters Evans, George, and Mann (Mailbox, Aug. 10) that free will is an illusion and irrelevant in human affairs, a questions arises.

For the victim, what is the difference between consensual sex and rape, if not free will?

Alex Ricca, Blue Lake Editor: In his letter to the NCJ, Paul Mann defends the assertion that human beings’ conscious control or “free-will” is an “illusion” limited to “nodding our head” or “choosing a brand of toothpaste” (Mailbox, Aug. 10).

And yet, by merely altering our view we can see that most toothpaste, and most commodities, are inextricably linked to child-labor, brutal dictators, endless wars for oil, environmental devastation, biodiversity collapse, climate change, and the reality of being slowly poisoned by products that prematurely break by design, or all of the above.

Is the path to economic, social and environmental justice, and every successful movement that has advanced it, paved by illusion? Is enlightenment an illusion?

Until the science of human consciousness is fully understood, it’s prudent to question purveyors of philosophies and religions that can offer absolution from personal responsibility based on a philosophy claiming that human beings lack free-will beyond “trivial acts.”

In his public lectures, the late Kurt Vonnegut credited his renowned writing

Suburban Summer Nights Evening falling and cicadas So loud you could still hear them Above the air conditioners First fireflies signal night To kids on bikes racing sundown home With spokes snapping playing cards Attached via clothespins The occasional smack at a mosquito And dogs barking Screen doors slamming on their springs With the rare late arrival The final garage door rolling down Kids washed to bed but still revved Until to their dismay they conk out Sighs of relief and release Within many of the houses And long after midnight An iconic train whistle Accents predawn calm To be broken When the tossed news Slaps cement — Alan D.

career to a 1940s University of Georgia psychology textbook by Dr. H. Cleckly titled, The Mask of Sanity. Vonnegut’s life-altering epiphany came from research showing how psychotic, high-achieving individuals are often selected for leadership roles because they exude command-

ing levels of confidence and decisiveness that are actually symptoms of a repressed conscience and their inability to care what happens next.

What could be more convenient for the psychotic leaders of 1940 Germany, or 2017 U.S.A. than a philosophy provid-

Get Out of the Murder House Editor: The savage efficiency with which European invaders destroyed the indigenous cultures of America was the original sin of the United States and other nation-states.

Their ruthless and exploitative spirit is now bringing an equally savage retribution of climate catastrophe, desertification of the lands and seas of Mother Earth, and mass

extinction of the animals and plants that have kept our species company through the millennia of life on our planet.

One small hope for us as the world flies apart lies in the increased audibility of the American indigenous voice, which proclaims that Mother Earth has rights.

That voice is exquisitely expressed in Cutcha Risling’s guest views piece (“Don’t Live in a Murder House,” Aug. 10), embellished with the comforting crowd picture of the Indian Island massacre vigil of 2014.

Cutcha’s words are so high-spirited and generous: “The land builds us. We pray for the health and well-being of all things, we sing, we dance, we heal the community to heal the land, we heal the land to heal the community. All of the community.

Everything. Together.”

Ellen Taylor, Petrolia Editor: Rob Arkley has a perspective through

money-colored glasses that tells him ownership and stewardship are the same thing.

It seems that he feels that if he smears money on something it will get him what he wants.

What is his intention if were to buy Indian Island?

Indian Island belongs to itself, the natives knew this and they behaved accordingly. That is until they were forced out by the “great businessmen of the time.” Let us not let that happen again.

The city council is on the right track, the Indian community has already paid dearly. They deserve to be the current stewards of this land.

One need not look far to see how the whiteman has usurped the land and the rights of the natives repeatedly. In addition, I don’t see why the gender of the council members is on Mr. Arkley’s mind but, thankfully, compassion, contrition and doing the right thing are included in their thinking.

Let the Indians live, let them celebrate renewal; after 157 years, it is time to let them have what they deserve!

Will Bell, Whitethorn

Correction A guest views piece headlined “Don’t Live in a Murder House” in the Aug. 10, 2017 edition of the North Coast Journal included an incorrect date on which Humboldt County citizens murdered more than 150 Wiyot people, mostly women and children, on what’s now known as Indian Island. The massacre occurred on Feb. 26, 1860. The Journal regrets the error.

One Fish, Two Fish

Ancient DNA and new technology help rewrite the life story of spring Chinook

By Kimberly Wear kim@northcoastjournal.com

T

ribal fishermen used the cave nestled in the Upper Klamath Basin for untold generations.

Now the spring run Chinook bones they left behind — some dating back 5,000 years — are providing a vital link between past and present in a race against time to save the fish that has disappeared from those rivers.

Only two wild spring runs remain lower down in the basin and those contain just a fraction of the hundreds of thousands that once swam in the sprawling network of Klamath waterways that cover an expanse the size of New England.

Standing in the way are a series of dams put up a century ago that block the socalled “springers” from their historic range in the far-flung reaches, where pools of cool, deep water provided the refuge they needed to reach maturity.

These long-discarded caches of bones are not only giving modern scientists a glimpse into the salmon’s past but, coupled with breakthrough advances in technology, they could help rewrite the evolutionary life story of a fish teetering on the brink of extinction.

In a paper published Aug. 16 in the journal Science Advances, a team of University of California Davis scientists say they have found a genetic marker that shows the springers are what’s known as an “evolutionary distinct unit” from their fall counterparts — akin to a separate species for conservation efforts — and warrant individual protections.

The discovery of a genetic mutation in spring Chinook as well as summer steelhead that coincides with the fishes’ earlier return to the rivers could have far-reaching implications for fisheries management up and down the West Coast.

“It’s only been in the last few years where we’ve had the technological power to study the genetic and evolutionary basis of important traits like migration type and explore how significant the loss of important genetic variants can be,” says

Tasha Thompson, a PhD candidate and one of the paper’s co-authors.

“Current conservation policies have not incorporated this newly-available information, and they’re A spring run Chinook in the Salmon River. also insufficient to Photo by Nathaniel Pennington protect the kind of important genetic variation we identify in our study,” she adds. “We hope our findings spur policyCraig Tucker, a natural resources policy makers to come together and improve advocate for the Karuk Tribe. existing policy in a way that can account Still, an Endangered Species Act listing for this new information as it becomes for the spring run would likely send reveravailable in salmon and other species.” berations up and down an already ailing Based on the findings, the Karuk Tribe salmon industry. and the Salmon River Restoration Council “The data is, in some ways, an inconvehave begun the process for adding the nient truth,” Tucker says. “This is just the Klamath River’s spring chinook to the reality. … The alternative is just to watch Endangered Species List. them disappear.”

occurred in a single evolutionary event — some 15 million years ago — that appears to be connected to the spring run’s “premature migration.”

Long story short, a biological phenomenon not only seems to have brought the springers in earlier and provided the fat needed to travel farther up in the watershed but the move also gave both runs an evolutionary advantage with more room to roam.

Meanwhile, conventional wisdom of federal fisheries management has been that some fall run Chinook would simply adjust to the springers’ schedule if that run were to vanish.

Now, the UC Davis scientists are saying it’s simply not in their DNA. “Contrary to what was previously thought, if we lose spring Chinook and summer steelhead in the present, we can’t expect them to reappear from fall Chinook and winter steelhead in the foreseeable future (it may take millions of years),” Thompson writes in an email to the Journal.

For members of the Karuk Tribe, the findings come as no surprise.

“The previous thought of, ‘No problem, the fish fall run will repopulate,’ is nonsense and we’ve known it was nonsense,” Saxon says.

Spring Chinook count results over the years.

Salmon River Restoration Council

in the Klamath basin for millennia have long known that spring run Chinook stood apart from their fall brethren and called the fish by separate names.

“Western scientists are having an epiphany,” Tucker says. “The Native Americans are saying, ‘We’ve been telling you this all along.’”

So do the bones found in the cave above the Klamath dams.

While the results are preliminary and the project is still underway, initial findings indicate the same gene mutation in ageold spring runs — some from historic times of 1860 to the early 1900s. Others date back 5,000 years.

“We found both springers and falls up there, but the majority of samples we tested were springers, including the 5,000-yearold sample,” Thompsons writes.

She says the results validate “the excellent research that’s been done on historical accounts of spring Chinook above the dam sites and agrees with the traditional knowledge of the local indigenous peoples.”

There’s a good possibility, she says, the fish were up there even longer.

“On the Klamath, spring Chinook were blocked from the upper basin by the first dam a little before 1920 — to a lot of people, that might seem like Chinook have been gone from the upper basin for a long time,” Thompson writes.

“But it’s really only a blink of an eye in terms of how long Chinook were up there before. I hope this research will provide a useful measuring stick to help people understand the real depth of time those

fish were up there before the dams were built.”

The hope now is to preserve the fish until the Klamath dams can be removed, allowing the spring run to return to those upper basin pools for the first time in a century.

The monumental undertaking, believed to be the largest project of its kind in the world, is currently slated to begin in 2020.

Saxon says the ESA listing will play a critical role in bringing back the once dominant run to the Klamath basin. Imagine, he asks, what would happen to the local economy if those fish numbered well into the thousands in the future.

“We’re going to need the community support just as much as we need the science,” he says. “We’re going to need people to be supportive of a change in mentality in how we conserve our fish resources.”

The fish are not just a source of sustenance but an important facet of native cultures whose traditions are integrally linked with the ebbs and flow of nature.

The ultimate goal, Saxon says, is restoring the spring run population so everyone can enjoy the fish.

“That was the deal that was struck: Humans were going to take care of this place and this place was going to take of humans,” Saxon says. l Kimberly Wear is the assistant editor and a staff writer at the Journal.

“The path is very long,” Yanosko says.

“It’s all the way across the United States, so there’s an opportunity for a lot of people to see the eclipse; that’s what’s important about it.”

When Yanosko says “a lot of people,” he’s not exaggerating. NASA’s eclipse website estimates 500 million will get at least some sort of glimpse — although only a fraction will be able to see the coveted total eclipse of the sun.

Yanosko, like many others, will be making the trek up to Oregon to be in what’s known as the “path of totality,” where day will briefly turn to night.

But he cautions against trying to make an impromptu trip, since most accommodations in prime viewing sites were booked well in advance and the roads in many areas aren’t equipped to handle the projected onslaught of visitors.

That being said, Yanosko reiterates that

Jail Assaults on the Rise

H

umboldt County Sheriff William Honsal held an Aug. 11 press conference to share details about an assault on a correctional deputy at the county jail that occurred two days earlier and to call for more state resources in response to a surge in similar attacks since the 2013 passage of Assembly Bill 109.

According to Honsal, the attack on deputy Dillon Huffman is the 22nd such attack on a Humboldt County correctional officer in 2017. Huffman was apparently lured into a maximum security cell during a routine cell check at around 7:20 p.m. on Aug. 9 after two inmates, Lorence Emmanuel Bailey and Jonah Dale Little, allegedly invited him to look at some artwork. The men had shed their uniform orange jumpsuits and were “prepared to fight,” said Honsal. In a video released by the HCSO, Huffman can be seen entering the cell and then backing out again as the two men hit him with their fists.

Honsal says Huffman both “exercised restraint” and displayed skill in how he managed the attack, creating distance between himself and the inmates, deflecting blows and also somehow managing to radio in an alert to the rest of the on-duty officers, who arrived within 35 seconds to contain the situation. Honsal said the attack resembled that of a gang “jumping in,” and that one or both of the men might have been trying to solidify their reputations prior to going to prison. Huffman had no prior beef with the inmates. Honsal declined to say what their gang affiliations might be.

Bailey was being held on a number of charges, including murder, while Little was being held on a probation violation. Both will face additional charges related to the assault, including a gang enhancement.

Huffman is “in good spirits” despite receiving several blows to the face and will soon return to work, Honsal said.

In his press conference, Honsal said

northcoastjournal.com/ncjdaily

“we have to push back on the state” for realignment measures — like A.B. 109 and Proposition 47 — that have created overcrowding in local jails, saying the jail is often at capacity and that staffing cannot keep pace with the influx of inmates, many of whom have mental health issues.

The intention of A.B. 109 was to relieve overcrowding in prisons by sending non-violent offenders to serve their sentences in county jails. A 2013 study from the University of Southern California indicates that “the safety and healthcare concerns that were previously evident in state prisons are now being seen in county jails.”

“My message to the state is that you need to start taking responsibility for your mess,” said Honsal. “When your jail is your biggest mental health provider in the county, that’s a problem.”

Honsal quoted internal reports showing that in 2013 there were three assaults on correctional officers, two in 2014 and 36 in 2015. He said retention of correctional staff and increasing training time for staff will be prioritized.

Drew Redden, business agent for the local chapter of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, confirmed Honsal’s observations about A.B. 109.

“Since A.B. 109 has gone into effect, the amounts and frequency of assaults has increased substantially,” Redden said. “You’re having a slightly different sort of person that’s in the jail that might not have been there before A.B. 109. I think you’re seeing quite a bit of concern about that.”

Union members have reported to Redden that retention has become a self-perpetuating cycle within the facility, as many officers are working overtime at lower wages than other places in the state. The jail has become a “training ground” for officers who want to prep their resumes to move on to better-paid positions elsewhere, leading to an exodus

Gold Bars and Budget Amendments

By Thadeus Greenson

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

T

hings were looking pretty bleak for Anthony Pisarski. A 2012 multi-agency raid on his SoHum property found more than 300 marijuana plants in a pair of greenhouses, loaded guns and hundreds of thousands of dollars in vacuum-sealed cash, along with almost $30,000 worth of gold and silver bars. After the case went federal, leaving Pisarski facing more than 20 years in prison, he reached a plea deal, copping to a charge of conspiring to manufacture and sell marijuana and agreeing to forfeit a host of possessions.

But in a groundbreaking ruling last week, U.S. District Judge Richard Seeborg agreed to stay Pisarski’s case, citing a federal spending bill provision that bars the U.S. Department of Justice from using its federal funding to prosecute people operating in compliance with state medical marijuana laws. Known as the Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment, the check on Justice Department power has been a mainstay in congressional budget bills since it first passed in 2014.

Seeborg’s ruling effectively puts the criminal proceedings against Pisarski on hold “until and unless a future appropriations bill permits the government to proceed.” That means Pisarski isn’t entirely out of the woods, as the amendment is up for a continuing vote in October and Attorney General Jeff Sessions has lobbied Congress to gut it. But Pisarski’s lawyer, Ronald Richards, says he thinks the congressional Cannabis Caucus has grown too strong to acquiesce to Sessions and the provision will be renewed, at which point he’ll seek to withdraw Pisarski’s guilty plea and have the case dismissed.

The ruling is believed to be the first to actively halt a cannabis prosecution under the spending amendment, and Richards says he’s fielded phone calls from attorneys far and wide who are defending clients in federal cannabis cases.

“The ruling can be used as a precedent in the pipeline of cases that are still percolating through the various federal courthouses in a variety of states,” he says.

The case also necessitated some nimble

lawyering, as Richards had to mount a credible argument that Pisarski was operating legally under state law, which requires cannabis be produced by and for qualified patients and that such businesses operate on a not-for-profit basis. Essentially, Richards argued that his client was operating in compliance at the time of the raids — with doctors’ recommendations for himself and his co-defendant’s mom — and would have had sales receipts and other documentation had the marijuana been grown to harvest and sell. But Pisarski was never charged with sales, just possession with intent, so how the marijuana was hypothetically to be sold is irrelevant, Richards argued. And all that cash and gold, and those guns? Well, Richards contended, that’s just the reality of working in a cash industry in a rural area.

(He also presented evidence that his client had paid $1.5 million in taxes in recent years, saying, “this was not a tax evader, this was a tax payer.”)

After decades of defense work that included representing many accused drug offenders, Richards says the case is enormously personally gratifying and cuts to the heart of why he became a lawyer.

But Richards said it has also had a tremendous impact on his client, who had assets seized and has spent the last five years in a federal monitoring program, under which his house has been repeatedly searched, his travel has been restricted and he’s had to undergo regular drug tests, which means he can’t use medical cannabis.

“U.S. pre-trial supervision is no joke,” he said. “It is a very restrictive life.”

If Congress holds firm on the Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment in October, and Richards is successful in getting Pisarski’s plea withdrawn and the case dismissed, Richards said he’ll look to have all his client’s seized assets returned, including the cash, vehicles and all those gold and silver bars. l Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor.

8:30 a.m.

It’s already hot. Despite a 3,200 acre fire in nearby Orleans, the sky is mostly clear. The Hoopa rodeo grounds are littered with red Solo cups and half-empty water bottles from last night’s dance.

In the cookhouse, a fan is going. The Ladies Auxiliary, Hoopa Unit 415 is serving up breakfast: pinto beans, pancakes, ham, scrambled eggs, orange juice, fruit, coffee or tea, for $5. A bull rider brings his paint horse up to the window for a cup of coffee. Clyde Moon, a semi-retired rancher, has stopped by for breakfast before leaving to check his salmon nets. He’s joined by Joseph LeMieux, a member of the tribal council.

Things have changed since the rodeo started in the 1970s, Moon and LeMieux say. There are fewer contestants than they remember from the early days. Time and gas, and money to compete, have all become obstacles. It takes cash to rodeo, hundreds of dollars for your entry fees, money that you may or may not make back in the competition. For a few years, the competition opened up to touring California Cowboys Pro-Rodeo Association contestants, but this year it’s officially part of the Western States Indian Rodeo Association, all the adult competitors are tribal members, many having made the journey from neighboring states.

Moon’s daughter, Merdi Lewis, takes a break from the griddle to sit down with the men. Lewis has fond memories of rodeo weekends when

applY todaY! she was a kid, when visiting cowboys would come and stay with local families.

There would be barbecues and parties.

One summer, the Moons hosted famous trick rider Julie Sanchez. Now most of the out-of-towners bring their own RVs, parking behind the arena near the banks of the Trinity River.

Moon takes a final swig of coffee. He has chores to do. He and Lewis will be back later to catch up some more and to watch Karlee, Lewis’ daughter, ride in the peewee barrel racing.

9:30 a.m.

Allie Hostler hitches a ride on the back of a bronc rider’s paint horse from where the RVs are parked, sliding off and striding up to the cook shack, her white straw cowboy hat adorned with a bright red rose.

Along with her job writing and editing the local paper, The Two Rivers Tribune, Hostler helps run the Hoopa Riding Club and is part of the volunteer team that helps the rodeo come together each year.

Her twin teenagers, Bud and Iris, compete in most of the events.

Much of the valley turns out to watch the kids’ events — the mutton busting (sheep riding) and the mini-broncs (small horse bareback riding), but the competi-

tion hit a snag this year when the livestock truck broke down near Klamath Falls, then was turned back due to the Orleans fire closing part of State Route 96. There were no kids’ events Friday night, to the disappointment of many.

Walking back toward her camp, dodging piles of horse pucky teeming with flies, Hostler bends occasionally to pick up trash. Around her, the younger cowboys are just beginning to get up, recovering from the previous night’s party.

“Put some clothes on!” Hostler yells at a shirtless man.

“Take some clothes off!” he yells back.

LeMieux has moved to the edge of the arena to supervise a tractor smoothing out the dirt in the wake of the water tender’s visit. Hostler, now moving her daughter’s saddles and bridles out of the back of her trailer, describes some of the challenges to making the rodeo work. Many of the services needed to put the event on are donated but it still costs a chunk of change. The riding club raises part of the money. Hostler recently won a grant to get an ADA bathroom but the money won’t come through until the grandstands are also made ADA compliant.

Things have been haphazard since the Hoopa Rodeo Association disbanded five Continued on next page »

years ago, Hostler says, but somehow it all comes together in the end. She finds her phone, checks the time and prepares to hitch up her stock trailer to her truck. If she can leave right now, she can possibly make it to Yreka and back with the sheep and mini-ponies in time for the kids’ competition at 4 p.m., skirting the Orleans fire by taking an alternate route on State Route 3, a trip of more than 300 miles.

Nearby, Cheyenne Autumn sits on the tailgate of his 1968 Chevy pickup, stretching out his leg in preparation for the next ride. The Covelo cowboy has been riding broncs and bulls for 50 years, and he hopes his 9-year-old son, Weston, follows in his footsteps.

“I’ve broken every bone in my body,” says the 68 year old. “I had a bull step on me in the [San Francisco] Cow Palace and break my back. They didn’t do any X-rays on me, just told me to go home and rest.

So I did. Then I got kicked in the chest in

Las Vegas. Got X-rays and they said, ‘Did you know your back was broken?’”

Autumn repairs old trucks in the off-season, then travels from rodeo to rodeo with Weston all summer. Sometimes he sees old friends who he has rodeoed alongside for years. Often he finds out those old friends have passed on.

If Hostler gets the mini-broncs back in time, Weston will ride bareback tonight, while Autumn will ride a full-size bronc in the INFR senior division, hoping to make time before the pair set off for Ferney, Nevada. Autumn doesn’t think he’ll ever retire. His body hurts, yes, but he loves it.

“I’m just like a drug addict,” he says.

“When I see those horses and bulls, I get that rush of adrenaline.”

10:30 a.m.

Back at the cookhouse, Herman and Deb Anderson are having breakfast with their daughter Tammy. The family drove

down from the Warm Springs Reservation in Oregon for the weekend. Herman, a team roper, didn’t get his turn in the arena until midnight on Friday.

He and Deb met as kids through their fathers, who were also cowboys in the INFR circuit. Herman remembers coming down to Hoopa in the 1970s with his grandfather and 10 freshly killed buck deer for the barbecue.

Herman says he warned Deb when they got married that the rodeo circuit would mean a lot of long weekends and late nights (Deb herself was a barrel racer). Somehow they made it work. The two have been married for 44 years.

“I would tell all young couples to get a prenup,” says Herman. Deb rolls her eyes. “When we got married we agreed she could be the boss for the first 25 years. But then her time was up and she didn’t want to stop.”

11 a.m.

Slack roping begins. The team ropers unable to compete the night before take turns in the arena, riding out in pairs to rope the horns and hind feet of yearling steers. Their accomplishments are measured in the seconds it takes to make a good catch and in the crow’s nest, Mackie Begay, visiting from the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs, is calling the action for a small handful of people sitting in folding chairs and finishing breakfast.

The arena stands are empty, but cowboys waiting their turn behind the chutes call and jeer.

Jerry Lee Lopez and his son Jayce, 6, help push the steers through the corrals to be released into the arena, bucking and lunging away from the ropes. Lopez brought the Brahma cross steers up from Oakdale for the competition. He, too, is hoping to get Jayce into the kids’ games that night. When Jayce catches part of a kick from a nervy steer and starts crying his dad teases him.

“You’re OK, you’re OK,” Lopez says, straightening Jayce’s small white cowboy hat. “You caught a little kick and now you’re gun-shy?”

At 12:30, the slack roping finishes and Begay breaks the bad news to the crowd: Hostler has realized she’s not going to make it to Yreka and back in time. The kids’ mini-bronc riding and mutton busting events have been cancelled.

“Everybody say, ‘Awww,’” he says.

“Awww,” the crowd replies, not without feeling.

Begay, finishing his set, reminds the crowd that if people have brought elders to watch the rodeo, they should check on them, make sure they have enough water and can make it to the bathroom.

Clyde Moon has come back from checking his (empty) nets and is sitting with Joseph LeMieux again, this time on the band platform that gets some sparse shade from the rodeo ground’s lone tree.

It’s an invasive species — Ailanthus altissima — that some call Tree of Heaven. Near impossible to get rid of, it’s sprung up all over the reservation.

“Tree of hell,” jokes LeMieux.

“You can’t even do anything with the wood,” says Moon.

Still, with the temperatures climbing into the 90s, its shade is welcome. The men are soon joined by Rod Johnson, a local paramedic. Johnson is standing by for any injuries. One of the bull riders “got stomped on” the night before but he popped right back up. A lot of people are going to be disappointed about the kids’ games, the men agree.

2 p.m.

Allie Hostler and Lindsey McCovey sit in the shade of their own pop-up tent, fresh back from taking the kids for a swim in the river. Hostler is steeling herself to send the “let-down text” to parents who signed their kids up for the mutton busting and mini bronc riding. Although Hostler has worked out an arrangement with one of the stock wranglers so the kids can ride a calf or a steer instead, some money will have to be refunded.

It costs money to rodeo. Hostler estimates her family pays at least $600 just in entry fees every summer weekend touring around the western states so Bud can ride steers and Iris can barrel race.

“I got Iris her first horse eight years ago, and I’ve been broke as a joke ever since,” she says. “But it’s the best thing I could have done.”

To help support the kids’ rodeo habit, Hostler’s mom, Cyndi Hostler, sells breakfast sandwiches and, every Friday, drives to Arcata to get dozens of donuts from Don’s Donuts, reselling them in local businesses.

The Hoopa Valley has become a near food desert since Ray’s Food Place closed last year due to a rat infestation.

Cyndi Hostler, a former school bus driver, says the riding club and rodeo keep the kids out of trouble.

“There’s not a lot to do around here,” she says.

“It’s like … a good addiction,” adds her daughter. “It’s a lifestyle. They have to take care of their animals in the pouring rain.

It’s an every day job. And the people we meet are good people.”

When the Hostlers travel for rodeo, ranchers in other states take them in, feeding them and their horses.

Soon the parents begin to arrive, trying to figure out what’s happening with the kids’ games.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” Hostler repeats, checking their names on her list and reassigning the smaller kids to a calf if they were signed up for the mutton-busting, to the steers if they were going to ride the mini-broncs. The parents are understanding but some of the kids are crestfallen.

Tiny Michael Korb, dudded up in his boots, snap-button shirt and cowboy hat, stands on the scale. He weighs 48 pounds, big enough for a calf, but he doesn’t want to ride a calf. His mother signs him up anyway.

Many people come to pay only to find that their admission fees have been covered by a cousin, an aunt, a grandmother.

Elderly women with spangled wallets fish for dollar bills so their grandkids can compete.

Cody Barney, president of Western States Indian Rodeo Association, puts $100 in the kitty for peewee barrel racing.

“Give money to every one of those kids,” he says.

4:30 p.m.

The sun has chased onlookers to the far edge of the dance platform. A small bunch of canny grandparents have set up folding chairs where the Tree of Heaven is casting its last bit of shadow and wait with sweating sodas and plates of barbecue for the kids’ games to begin. Despite the heat, the grandstands are beginning to fill. The mood is jovial, but not rowdy. There is a brush dance in town later that night, and many of the women and young girls will join members of the Yurok Tribe to dance through the night.

Allie Hostler is looking for Begay, who wasn’t told that the kids’ games were on after all. Coltish teen girls amble in trios and quartets, climbing into the stands and then down again. Teenage boys slouch nearby, their hair still wet from the river.

The Ladies Auxiliary has been replaced in the cook shack by kids and their chaperones, slinging cheeseburgers and Sno-Cones to raise money for the tribe’s recreation division. The bull rider who was stomped on the night before reappears and a group of men teases him for his “ear like a satellite dish.” A pack of loose dogs wander through the gates and sniff opportunistically around the folding tables.

up without help. The cowboy puts her hat back on her head and claps her on the back.

One of the first kids finding his seat in the calf chute is Michael Korb, who has gotten over his reluctance about riding a calf instead of a sheep.

“Michael wants to give a shout out to his grandma Yvette on her birthday,” Lopez says. The crowd applauds.

“Come on, Bubby!” yells a family member in the stands.

The catch is pulled and Korb comes thundering out of the chute, spilling in seconds and tumbling to the ground. The calf hies away. Korb rolls over, leaps to his feet, raises his arms and flicks both hands at the crowd, eliciting a wave of laughter and applause.

Other small riders aren’t as lucky, losing their seats almost immediately and having to be helped up by the attending cow-

boys. Many squall in surprise and pain.

Of all the calf riders, only one, 4-yearold Avery Rose, manages to make a qualifying time and holds onto the calf until it’s halfway across the arena. When she finally falls she immediately begins crying but the crowd goes nuts, applauding as she’s helped up by the cowboys and brought over to her waiting parents, who embrace her.

6:30 p.m.

The smaller kids, released from the tension of competition, are getting a little wild on sugar and soda. A group of boys jostle each other walking past the corrals.

“I’ll toss you in with the bulls,” one says to his friend.

“I’ll toss you in with the bulls,” his friend fires back.

“Those bulls are afraid of me,” he says.

Four members of the riding club,

5:15 p.m.

There’s a tap on the microphone, a whoop. Lopez, the stock transporter, is pinch-hitting in the crow’s nest for Begay.

Jayce sits next to him, safely up and away from the stock.

“We need someone to close the arena gate,” announces Lopez, who then begins to warm up the crowd. “Where’s the Rodeo Queen? Is she still putting her makeup on?”

The kids’ games begin with the longhorn steers, each weighing around 600 pounds. Most of the kids fall right away, earning a smatter of “good try” applause from the audience.

“Good ride, cowboy,” Lopez says after each spill, nudging the crowd to cheer for the Hoopa riders.

One steer tips and the animal and its rider somersault together, the animal rolling over the boy before he rises to a round of applause.

“He’s probably too big for that steer,” someone says in the stands.

including Iris Hostler, gallop into the arena, each waving an American flag. The girls split and merge again, riding past and circling one another in a carefully practiced choreography. Cyndi Hostler looks on proudly. They’ve been practicing for months, she says.

Begay is back in the crow’s nest. A pre-recorded rendition of the “The Star Spangled Banner” plays over the speakers.

The crowd rises to its feet. Two cowboys in the arena ride while holding their reins in one hand, their hats over their hearts with the other.

Begay makes a hard shift in tone, playing James Brown’s “Living in America” as the bronc riding begins. A Nevada cowboy manages to hold on for a good chunk of time, but the judges only give him 67 of a potential 100 points, 50 for the rider and 50 based on how tough the bull or bronc is. The crowd boos the judgement.

In the stands, Avery Rose reappears with her mother and a fistful of money.

Her family cheers. Her mother takes most of the cash, handing her back $10. The girl pouts.

“I’m going to hang onto this for you for later,” her mom says. “You can spend that tonight on whatever you want.”

Avery Rose looks uncertain, but she and her dad agree to go get a Sno-Cone.

8:15 p.m.

Bronc riding transitions to team roping, and then women’s break away roping, where riders let go of the rope once they’ve lassoed the calf’s head. Begay comments on one woman’s smile. She misses her calf, but continues smiling.

“No time, too bad,” says Begay.

The metal corrals are crowded with young boys when the steer wrestling starts, an event where the competitors

ride alongside long horned steers then hurl themselves onto them, grabbing their horns and trying to wrestle them to the dirt. There’s one nasty spill but everyone manages to walk away.

A fat yellow moon is rising above Captain John Ridge. Behind the corrals, scores of cowboys sit on their horses, each waiting their turn.

A paramedic checks in with the fallen steer wrestler, who’s limping back to his camp alongside his very pregnant wife.

“No, I’m okay,” he tells the paramedic.

Then, turning back to his wife, “It all felt like it was going OK, right up until the end.” l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal. Reach her at 442-1400, extension 317, or linda@northcoastjournal.com.

N

obody ever said finding a mate was easy. In some places, the absence of suitable suitors or a dating pool up to snuff is more prevalent than elsewhere.

Heck, I’ve even heard some whispers that Humboldt County isn’t ideal.

In Gilbert and Sullivan’s Ruddigore, ladies and lads gone lacking for love serves as a jumping-off point for the story.

Ruddigore, from 1887, was a play from the librettist-and-composer duo that was part of their famed so-called Savoy operas. It got less traction with audiences and critics at the time (it came right on the heels of The Mikado and hey, you try following that one). It has endured through the years, however, and the Humboldt Light Opera Company has chosen this story of mortals and ghosts and much singing, silliness and seriousness for its annual production this summer.

It’s hard to summarize Ruddigore’s plot

20 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 17, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

without making it sound overly complex but it really isn’t. HLOC’s production places the story in 1920s Martha’s Vineyard, which makes for some great straw boaters and period dresses for the large cast of principals, smaller players and singers, all courtesy of Liz Souza and Carol Ryder. All is not well, for there have not been any marriages for six months’ time, vexing the women of the hamlet. Many of the male suitors are too cowed to ask lovely Rose (Fiona Gadd-Ryder) for her hand. Her aunt Dame Hannah (Elizabeth Erenberger) explains to all that the curse on the first Baronet of Ruddigore is the root of all the woe.

As Rose, Gadd-Ryder is wonderful, possessing a simply stunning voice for what the soprano role requires. Adhering a little too closely to a book of etiquette she was given as a young girl, she sings of how hard it is to find a proper suitor (“But here it says, in plainest print / It’s most unladylike to hint / You may not hint / You must not

hint / It says you mustn’t hint, in print!”).

Naturally suitors beckon, those being Robin (a great James Gadd), a local catch sweet on Rose, and his foster brother, Richard (Bryan Tari), a boasty sailor back from 10 years at sea. There is much that’s good here and well handled by all the leads, who make fine use of G&S’s brilliant and furiously fast comic wordplay. But, on the other hand, all hands on deck can’t change the flaws that have earned Ruddigore a reputation as one of the duo’s middling works.

Despite some universal elements, the material doesn’t always lend itself well to modern audiences. And while the spot-on opulence of HLOC’s production — including Carol Ryder’s fine direction of a massive cast of singers and an accompanying orchestra — offsets that problem, Ruddigore has some weak songs. Also, by the tail end of the first act, when some other elements and characters come into the play, the story doesn’t move as fluidly.

The pace of the story becomes sluggish and stagnant at times, despite Gadd doing smashingly carrying scenes away from the rest of the main cast.

Ruddigore has much to offer in the leads’ performances, and some of the supporting cast, most notably Cindy Cress as Mad Margaret, steal scenes deftly, as well. At least when it comes to courtship, Gilbert and Sullivan have left us with this ringing truth, sung by Robin: “Though clever as clever can be / You must stir it and stump it / And blow your own trumpet / Or, trust me, you haven’t a chance / If you wish in the world to advance / Your merits you’re bound to enhance.”

construction. (And yay for the persevering Gyppo crew, who expect to open in December or January after a false start in Redway and years of trying.)

Gyppo is installing an oversized storage tank, big enough to retain two to three days’ worth of brewery wastewater on site, at the request of the Shelter Cove Resort Improvement District. The tank is a stormy weather cushion, because storms can be tough on the quirky local wastewaterscape.

Shelter Cove is dotted with empty lots that were plumbed, years ago, with connections to the district’s sewage system.

When it rains, water seeps into many of those unused connections, taxing the treatment system, explains Philip Young, the resort district’s general manager. Rainwater overload is usually worst at the peak of a storm, Young says, so he worked with Gyppo to select a tank size that should usually do the trick. If a long storm settles in, Young is confident that Gyppo’s owners would delay brewing more beer until the system can recover. “We have a great relationship,” Young says.

Gyppo has also agreed to time its brew-water releases for when the district’s system is least used, between 9 p.m. and 6 a.m. And it has installed equipment that will allow the wasterwater to flow out slowly and adjust the pH to a range that’s Continued on next page »

WILD CAUGHT ALASKAN HALIBUT

Making your beer safe for fish umans have no monopoly on loving beer.

From its warm, grain-rich beginnings to the last bit of water syphoned away during brewing, beer is a feast for species great and small.

Cattle munch on the grain left over after brewing. New crops of barley thrive under a mulch of spent grain. Microbes multiply in the nutrient-rich soup of excess brewing water.

Those microbial beer lovers can cause trouble if they start carousing, unchecked, down the drains and out into the rivers or the sea. Given free rein, they can consume so much oxygen that there wouldn’t be enough left for the fish.

Keeping fish safe and wastewater treatment plants running smoothly under the influx of brewery wastewater is no small feat. Along with being a banquet for unwanted microorganisms, used brewery water can be too hot, too acidic, too alkaline or just too much.

Scratch the surface of your favorite brewery and you’re likely to find ingenious solutions that keep local sewage systems happy and your beer at least kind of affordable.

The latest example of this careful juggling is unfolding in Shelter Cove, where the Gyppo Ale Mill brewery and restaurant, which takes its name from an old term for small-scale loggers, is under

easier for the district to handle.

“This is an example of the local sewer district being very logical and cooperative, looking at what makes sense and what will work,” said John Mercer, who helped Gyppo plan its system.

Mercer owns Brewery Wastewater Design, a Colorado company dedicated to navigating the sometimes clashing needs of brewers and wastewater treatment plants. It’s an unpredictable field, varying not by state or county, but by the needs of each community’s wastewater treatment system. For brewers, things can be as simple as filling out a permit, or as complex as setting up an entire wastewater treatment plant onsite, offsetting its costs by generating electricity, steam or hot water that brewers need.

Nobody has gone that far in Humboldt but the issue has reshaped our brewing scene in other ways.

Eel River Brewing’s taproom is a Fortuna landmark but the bulk of its brewing moved to Scotia years ago over sewage treatment issues.

“The sewer rates were unsustainable in Fortuna,” says Eel River owner Ted Vivatson. Eel River signed a 15-year lease with Pacific Lumber back in 2006 and settled

into Scotia, doing significant pre-treatment at the brewery to accommodate the lumber mill’s aging wastewater treatment system. Now, with PL long gone, Scotia creating a public community services district and sewer rates likely to quadruple, Eel River is reassessing.

“We have property here in Fortuna, by the taproom. And moving out of the state is an option,” Vivatson said. “We have to look at all our options.”

Meanwhile, with the region’s biggest brewery discharging into Eureka’s wasterwater system and a second brewery ramping up production there, some have speculated the city’s capacity is maxed out.

Fear not, says Michael Hansen, Eureka’s deputy director of public works for utilities operations. With careful coordination and source control, he says, the city can accommodate even more breweries.

Who’s next?

Veggies to plant now for fall and winter

or the first five or so years that first node, when the plants are tiny and I was a gardener, I never planted again a week later, to encourage lateral anything in August. It just seems growth. so crazy! It’s too hot, how would Potatoes (80-110): Look for “Irish Cobbler,” anything grow? And I don’t even “Red Norland,” “King Harry” and “Caribe.” These varieties mature about three really want to be out there right now. weeks faster than others. And don’t But it doesn’t take so long to plant be fooled by fingerlings! The spuds are some seeds, and if you just squirt a little small and seem like they’d come on extra water at them in the mornings (and faster, but they actually take longer maybe the evenings as well) then you than large Russets. might be surprised how nicely some of Sunflowers (80-120): Check the seed packthese plants will grow. Not only will you et to make sure you have fresh salad get a quick variety. and another round Bush beans (45-65): of sunflowers for Pro-Tips Bush beans do well the fall, but a lot of Pro-Tip #1: Plant seeds on the edges of in the fall and will these veggies are areas that are already being irrigated die in the first frost reasonably frost-hardy and could end regularly, then just check on them but you’ll get some up providing fresh to make sure they’re getting enough snackers before produce through water. then! Pole beans, not February. A handful Pro-Tip #2: Soak the seeds overnight so much. of the brassicas can first and they’ll sprout even faster!

Nasturtium (40-80): even endure a hard Pro-Tip #3: Plant root vegetables in They’ll melt in the freeze; it’s quite the big containers to make harvesting a frost but there’s still delight to have tall cinch! plenty of time to plumes of purple get some really nice and green Brussels flowers before then. sprouts jutting up through the snow!

Pickle the green, immature seeds and Try it for yourself and see what I mean. they’re a lot like capers!

Here’s a quick list of vegetables that you can direct-sow (plant right into the Next, some semi-hardy varieties to ground) in August. Because the North plant soon, preferably on a south slope or Coast microclimates tend to vary widely against a south-facing wall: and depending on where you live, frost Peas (70-80): Alderman shelling peas are dates can start as early as September or as my all-time favorite, but snow peas do late as December. I’ve noted the expected best in fall plantings. days to maturity in parentheses, so you Tatsoi (40-50): Easy, crunchy, frost-hardy can plan accordingly and, if necessary, get and disease resistant salad greens? Yes, them in before the average first frost date please! in your particular area.

Mizuna (40-50): Same as above.

The following are not that hardy, but Cilantro (30-60): Personally, I plant cilanfast-growing and will mature before winter if you get them in right away: tro every two weeks from April until November. I just can’t get enough of Basil (30-60): Pinch the tops, back to the it, and it bolts so fast! Fall plantings

in cooler weather are nice, because bolting slows down and the little plants are surprisingly hardy.

Spinach (35-45): Also surprisingly hardy, spinach is best grown in the fall, in my opinion. It yields better flavor and bolts much slower than in spring and summer.

Radishes (30-60): All radishes are easy and fast, but this is an excellent time to plant Daikon radish, in particular, for harvesting throughout the winter.

Loose leaf lettuce (30-60): Lettuce is another plant that I sow habitually, whenever there’s a patch of bare soil.

It doesn’t all make it to maturity, but I always have lettuce when I want some!

Super hardy, and even more delicious after a frost: Romaine lettuce (30-60): Romaine is just that much hardier than other types of lettuce, and also happens to have a lot more protein!

Beets (50-60): Direct sow in thick patches, then take the time to thin them to three inches apart and you’ll be harvesting giant red globes in November!

Onions (60-80): Plant for scallions or roots and harvest all winter.

Parsley (60-110): Did you know parsley is incredibly rich in iron and other minerals? It’s also super hardy.

Broccoli and cauliflower (50-90): Days to maturity vary widely, depending which variety you get. In general, brassicas are best grown in the fall. Give them the room they need, water liberally and you will get the ginormous heads you deserve!

Brussels sprouts (80-120): They take a long time to mature, and they need a lot of space, so it makes sense to plant them in late summer/early fall, when summer crops are finished and large spots open up in the garden.

Turnips (50-60): Rich in nutrients for

winter stews. Harvest when smaller for a more subtle flavor.

Arugula (30-40): Oh, arugula, how I love thee! So easy and fun to grow with flowers that look like antique lace. Yet another plant that I collect the seed from and toss it around on the daily.

Always plant arugula!

Kohlrabi (50-60): Everyone needs to eat more kohlrabi. Try it deep fried.

Seriously.

Cabbage (50-90): There’s a good reason all those cold places are famous for eating too much cabbage! It grows like a champ all winter long.

Celery and celeriac (90-120 days): If you aren’t already growing celeriac, this is the perfect time to try it. Me, I don’t like celery. But celeriac? So delicious!

Chard (40-60): Plant a big patch of rainbow chard where you can see it from the kitchen window. To be completely honest, the rainbow variety is not as hardy as good ol’ Swiss chard, but those colors!

As always, prepare the ground first — even if you’re interplanting with existing plants — to create a successional harvest.

Weed the area, then scratch around a little and sprinkle in some nice compost.

The good news about planting in August is that you can be confident that the soil temps are up and your seeds will germinate very quickly. It’s much less work than sowing into containers and transplanting, but if you don’t keep the seedlings watered while they’re getting established, they will die. Cover that base, and you’re good to go. l Heather Jo Flores wrote Food Not Lawns, How to Turn Your Yard into a Garden and Your Neighborhood into a Community.

Setlist

In Defense of Silence

By Andy Powell

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

Y

ou, like me, are probably someone that truly appreciates time spent listening to music.

It’s good for our souls. But as much beauty as we can find in the rhythm and melody of music, we can find just as much insight and care in silence. The two are of course not mutually exclusive — music, after all, is the notes we hear and the silence between. It’s the space, the ebb and flow, the dynamics, the give and take of sound and silence that makes music alive.

We still have a bit more summer here on the North Coast and a few more river days ahead of us. Although I’m a music lover, my ideal river day is directly related to how quiet it is. I’m not so cranky as to want absolute silence — I enjoy the sounds of people and the river becoming one, the water and the breeze and kids laughing and all that shit, of course.

However, the sounds of dogs barking their goddamn heads off and a crappy boombox can easily sully an otherwise wonderful day at the river. Sure, music can increase our enjoyment of nature.

I might love to hear “Blue Sky” by The Allman Brothers Band or Van Morrison’s Astral Weeks while staring at a crane on a Mad River log. But I’m not sure you would. Hence you won’t hear me cranking Yes’ “Starship Trooper” when I’m getting sunburnt on the riverbank. If you’re going to have a shit day at the river, I want it to be because of something you did. In our non-work hours, we can listen to almost any music we want, whenever we want. At home, in the car, on our goddamn phones.

So why do we feel like we can’t take a break while out in nature?

So maybe we can make some basic ground rules. If you’re at a secluded river spot with no one else around, crank the tunes and live life to the last drop. If other people are around, turn it off. In the event that means you’ll have to listen to the wind blow or, God forbid, the thoughts bouncing around in your head, just keep the music nice and low as the river belongs to all of us, and we to it.

Thursday It’s the last weekend before school starts for many of our youngsters here on the North Coast, so parents, this might be the final weekend of summer where you’re not doing homework for your kiddos. The

Compost Mountain Boys return to the Mad River Brewery Tap Room this evening at 6 p.m. doing their string thing for you for free. Dance around and celebrate the summer. “Nostalgic pop/rock” band Decades will be down on the Madaket Plaza playing hits from many decades for you around the same time. From a radio spot about the band, I heard some great hits from the early pre-psychedelic ’60s ranging all the way up to what I thought were some hits from the ’90s and early aughts.

It’s something for everyone, outdoors and free.

Friday Swinging jazz tunes are on the bill up in Blue Lake when Lizzy and the Moonbeams stop by the Mad River Brewery at 6 p.m. Get your dance partner out there and feel free to tip the band during this free show. Former Eureka-based rock band Blood Orphans — now based out of Olympia, Washington — return to Humboldt with fellow Olympia-ites First Boyfriend, who are stopping by Outer Space in Arcata at 7 p.m. for an all-ages show for only $5. They’re joined by local Philip Dekat, who falls somewhere in the emo vein. An hour later, high priestesses of harmony Belles of the Levee appear at Cafe Mokka at 8 p.m. for a free, all-ages performance. At the same time, a Sacramento band that’s been playing for as long as I’ve been gigging up here is at The Miniplex in Arcata. Quirky creative pop-rockers Be Brave Bold Robot, unrelated to the random red graffiti that would pop up all over Arcata about 10 years ago, will be joining locals the Absynth Quartet for $5 tonight. Come prepared as this will all be electric music for the pre-frontal cortex tonight. Also at 8 p.m. will be local funksters Object Heavy, laying it down at Redwood Curtain Brewery and for free. Buy ’em a beer or leave ’em some cash for their service. The Jam is hosting “Oakland-based neo-soul fusion act” The Seshen in its first Arcata performance tonight at 9 p.m. with local band The Velvet Touch.

Saturday If you’ve been around the Arcata Creamery District, you know it’s been a weekend of partying with the Creamery Arts Festival in full swing celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Creamery Building. As a part of this festival, the second

Diego’s Umbrella returns to Humboldt Brews Saturday, Aug. 19 at 9:30 p.m.

Courtesy of the artists

annual Humboldt Fervor Fest is kicking off at 1 p.m., celebrating all things fermented, samples of which all come unlimited — as long as you stay sober — with a $35 ticket. What goes better with a festival than music? You’ll hear music from locals Timbata, Paula Jones Band, Belles of the Levee, RLA Jazz Trio with Rob Diggins and Bandamonium with some “special surprises” I’m told. All of this while trying out and supporting local makers and producers of fermented items here in Humboldt.

Ferment on. Original surf rock is ready for your ears at Mad River Brewery courtesy of Band O’ Loko, who’ll be up there from 6 p.m. until about 8:30 p.m. As always, a free show at the Tap Room. San Francisco-based Gypsy-rockers Diego’s Umbrella return to Humboldt Brews tonight at 9:30 p.m. and for $15. The Alibi brings in local psychedelic dune rockers White Manna anchoring a rock show with garage-poppers Bearcats from San Luis Obispo.

Showtime for this one is around 11 p.m. and $5 gets you in the Alibi doors.

Monday Here in Humboldt, we have a chance to see the partial solar eclipse, which, admittedly, won’t be as cool as seeing the total eclipse. But we’ll also be spared sitting in traffic for hours on end and camping outside booked hotels up in Oregon.

With that said, check it out from around 9 a.m. until 11:34 a.m. Let’s hope the clouds give us a view and remember not to stare directly into the sun. Believe it or don’t, but it’ll still fry your eyeballs just like it will every other day of your life. Pick out some good tunes to listen to during the eclipse.

Perhaps Dark Side of the Moon, “Total Eclipse of the Heart”, Pink Moon, The Moon and Antarctica, “Black Hole Sun,” etc. (Maybe on headphones.) The Logger Bar is opening early for an eclipse party, so if you’ll be getting drunk before work anyway, why not stop by? Blues heavyweight Coco Montoya is playing an early show at Humboldt Brews tonight at 8 p.m.

Taught by the “Master of the Telecaster” Albert Collins, Coco has risen to the top of the contemporary blues scene and cut his teeth with John Mayall and the Bluesbreakers early on his career. Get in to this intimate show for only $20 and get home at a reasonable hour.

Tuesday

The Mad Liver Bandery, a supergroup of Mad River Brewery employees is playing at, well, where else? The Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m. and for free. They’re joined by Knick Moore and Mike Grady, from what I’m hearing. At the Outer Space in Arcata you’ve got some hip-hop from Milo with Randal Bravery along with Signor Benedict the Moor and Kenny Segal. This all ages show starts at 7 p.m. and is $10. 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 Album of the Week Show on KWPT 100.3 FM Tuesdays at 6 p.m. Feel free to leave the dogs at home, too.

Swimming Upstream The Yurok Tribe’s 55th annual Klamath Salmon Festival, happening Saturday, Aug. 19 from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m in Klamath (free, $15 salmon feast), typically celebrates the wealth of the river and the bounty it provides. This year, with record-low salmon runs forcing the tribe to purchase fish from outside of the Klamath River, the celebration’s focus is on the health of the river and raising awareness about the struggle of its salmon — an essential part of the tribe’s culture, tradition and existence.

Among the more than 100 vendors, including food, arts, crafts and jewelry, are information booths to help the rally for the salmon. Stop by a few of them while you’re enjoying the day’s events, which begin with a Veterans Breakfast at the Klamath Community Center at 7:30 a.m. (free for military veterans and active service personnel) and include the annual parade down Klamath Boulevard at 10 a.m. and a wild salmon lunch starting at 11 a.m. ($15, includes homemade sides and drink). The annual Stick Game Tournament, a highly-competitive, full-contact sport that resembles lacrosse, begins at noon.

There will also be a softball tournament, classic car show, cultural demonstrations, an Indian card game and a hopping kid’s corner with four bounce houses, zip line, bumper cars, a bubble park, face painting, snow cone and popcorn snack booth, photo booth and a fishing booth. Whew! And how about squid at a salmon festival? You bet. Spend the day enjoying the rocking tunes of headlining band Dr. Squid, who take the stage at noon.

It’s not everyday that something or someone hits the centennial mark and is still around for the party. Well done, Creamery Building. The Creamery Arts Festival, held in the Creamery District, celebrates the building’s 100th anniversary August 17-20 with tours of its tower, a special outdoor art exhibit

by Lush Newton and performances by the (all-human) Flynn Creek Circus in the vintage big top tent. There’s also the Playhouse’s signature outdoor performance spectacle, Elemental, featuring giant puppets, dancers, stilt walkers and lanterns, plus live music, a fermented food festival and more. That’s four days of family fun celebrating the building and the art community that’s thrived there for more than 40 years.

So, about that fermented food festival … Get pickled at the Humboldt Fervor Festival (the festival within the festival) on Saturday, Aug. 19 from 1 to 5 p.m. Try unlimited samples of cider, beer, kombucha, wine and distilled spirits, as well as cheese, kimchi, sauerkraut, bread and chocolate for a well-worth-it $40 at the door. While you’re there, check out demonstrations on making cider, sourdough bread, pickles and more. And there’ll be bands, dancing, food and high-flying, tight-rope walking fun with Flynn Creek Circus performing at 3 and 7 p.m. This fine showcase of the area’s fermented producers is a benefit for Playhouse Arts and Humboldt Made, so your dollars help keep quality art and culture programming and local makers/services alive and well in the community. It’s a gin-gin situation. What?

All events for the Creamery Arts Festival are free except the Flynn Creek Circus performances and Humboldt Fervor Festival. Tickets available at Wildberries and online at www.creameryfestival.com, along with a full schedule of festival events.

Welcome to the Dollhouse Big problems for little girls

By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com Live feed of the remaining presidential manufacturing council.

Annabelle: Creation

Reviews

ANNABELLE: CREATION. Promotional materials reference this as “The next chapter in The Conjuring universe,” which comes across as aspirational and grandiose. That known universe now includes: The Conjuring (2013), wherein the new film’s malevolent, titular doll was introduced; The Conjuring 2 (2016); Annabelle (2014). And of course our current subject, which presents said doll’s origin story.

The Conjuring came as an early entry in a field surprisingly rich with stylish, unassuming low-budget horror pictures. For a couple of years, such movies offered the most consistent, pleasant surprises of a given weekend. Marked by a balance of atmosphere, pacing and giddy scares, they called back in an entirely welcome way to a time when movies didn’t have to make a billion dollars to be considered a success.

Maybe more to the point, they didn’t have to cost multiple hundreds of millions to merit distribution out here in the hinterland. Furthermore, these small-budget genre movies generally turned disproportionately large profits. But even these successes were not enough to guarantee the stability and longevity of the genre.

So the initial rush of releases slowed to a trickle of generally successful movies interspersed with the usual, forgettable tidal junk. Annabelle: Creation, as a post-wave addition to the canon, works because it has style and narrative poise, but there may be too much of the familiar in it, and its moment may have passed.

Sometime in the early-mid 20th century, a stoic doll maker named Samuel Mullins (Anthony LaPaglia) enjoys a tranquil, sunny life somewhere in the quiet countryside. His (contextually) creepy creations afford his family a secluded, rambling property in the hills, topped by a picturesque and potentially terrifying old

house. Esther Mullins (Miranda Otto) tends to the house, and together they provide a loving home for their young daughter “Bee” (Samara Lee). But one hot afternoon, on the way home from church, everything is irrevocably changed.

Twelve years later, a group of orphan girls in the care of Sister Charlotte (Stephanie Sigman) arrive at the Mullins place. They have been offered a long-term temporary home there, following the closure of their orphanage. The two oldest girls band together, unsurprisingly, and show favor to two of the younger girls.

This leaves the littlest ones, Janice (Talitha Bateman) and Carol (Grace Fulton), to look out for each other as their new home becomes ever less hospitable.

Creation calls back to the early successes in its “universe” with its period setting, deliberate pacing, elevated style and surging climax. Credit both writer Gary Dauberman and director David F. Sandberg for that. As effective as the movie may be, though, it also presents us with more of the same: another evil doll (well, the same evil doll; or rather, doll as conduit for evil), more young girls in peril, more arch-religiosity as antidote. On its own merits, this is a taut, well-realized little horror movie. It avoids the over-aggressive homage to classic horror that ultimately undid the effectiveness of Annabelle and so fits well with The Conjuring movies. But still, it feels like a movie without its moment; a callback to something recent but already gone. R. 109M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

THE GLASS CASTLE. Disclaimer: I haven’t read Jeannete Walls’ popular memoir from which this is drawn, so I won’t be speaking to any disparities between the adaptation and the source material.

Directed by Destin Daniel Cretton (Short Term 12, 2013) from a screenplay by

38 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 17, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

he and Andrew Lanham, The Glass Castle presents a history of the Walls family, as told by its second-oldest daughter. The narrative shifts between 1989 Manhattan, where Jeannette (Brie Larson) has found professional success as a gossip columnist. She is engaged to an eager financial adviser named David (Max Greenfield), and appears to be navigating the waters of New York society with great alacrity and a little countrified sass. She is troubled though, by the parentage she obscures from acquaintances, but of which she is reminded when, from a taxi, she observes mom Rose Mary (Naomi Watts) and dad Rex (Woody Harrelson) Dumpster diving in midtown.

This triggers a series of flashbacks, wherein we learn that the Walls’ family long lived an itinerant life, following Rex on a flight from his troubled past toward a dream-filled, never reached future. They kick around the Southwest, from dusty to dustier mining towns, Rose Mary constantly painting, Rex unable to hold down a job.

Eventually they settle in Rex’s hardscrabble hometown, caught between their falling down house and the nightmares of his parental home. Jeannette and her three siblings band together, drawing strength from one another to provide an eventual means of escape.

The Glass Castle is a big-hearted, well-acted, unpretentious examination of family life in hard times. In spite of its successes, though, it somehow fails to achieve the gravity for which it seems to strive. Larson gives a strong, raw performance, as always, as does Harrelson (one of his best), though he seems miscast, too recognizable for this role. As much as I was drawn in emotionally, I was also troubled by gnawing notion that in singling out one troubled family whose daughter got famous, it may do a disservice to all the

families whose stories won’t make it to the big screen. PG13. 127M. BROADWAY. — John J.

CITY OF GHOSTS. Documentary about activist citizen journalists and their underground resistance against ISIS. Directed by Matthew Heineman. R. 92M. MINIPLEX. THE DARK TOWER. In this skimming adaptation of a Stephen King novel about a battle for the universe, Idris Elba’s glowering intensity and quiet grief almost carry the dull exposition.

DUNKIRK. Christopher Nolan’s focused and intimate telling of this World War II story of pinned troops, outnumbered airmen and hail-Mary civilian rescue effort brings each character to life with the wave-action of hope and hopelessness.

KIDNAP. Halle Berry plays a mother chasing her son’s abductors in a minivan with a dwindling gas tank and very good shocks in this breakneck, popcorn thriller.

Clunky monologues and messy editing aside, the adrenaline fix is a treat. R. 82M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK.

LANDLINE. Sisters (Jenny Slate, Abby Quinn) come to grips with their messy lives and their father’s affair in 1990s New York. R. 97M. MINIPLEX. THE NUT JOB 2: NUTTY BY NATURE. Squirrely sequel about animals trying to save their park. Voiced by Will Arnett, Katherine Heigl, Maya Rudolph and Jackie Chan. PG. 91M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should under− stand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the prop− erty. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this infor− mation. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, benefi− ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a cour− tesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (800) 280− 2832 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 053958−CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR SALES INFORMATION: (800) 280− 2832 CLEAR RECON CORP. 4375 Jutland Drive Suite 200 San Diego, California 92117
