Politics, Hunting – Both Sports
F
or those of us who love the sport of politics, let me be the first to say, “Wow, Eureka!” Who says your vote doesn’t count?! In 33 years of reporting (or closely watching the reporting of others) I cannot recall election night prelim results being reversed. Last week, after all those straggling ballots were counted, Kim Bergel pulled ahead by 46 votes and, once the election is certified, will unseat Ward 3 Councilman Mike Newman. My statisticianhusband called it a victory so narrow it was “by chance alone.” (Number geeks will understand.) How different will this new council be? Very. Historically, city council members have been businessmen who often served to protect their own economic interests. They needed government help to pave streets and sidewalks and put in sewers for their developments, plus provide police and fire protection. After that, they wanted minimal government and the least interference with commerce as possible. That was very much the scenario 40 years ago in Arcata until the 18-year-olds got the vote and swept young, progressive, pro-planning, pro-environment candidates into office practically overnight. With that sudden and dramatic change to progressive/liberal leadership came early and enthusiastic support for recycling, the Arcata Marsh project, the community forest, bicycle lanes and trails … and a flood of other new ideas. Change came more slowly to other cities, including Eureka. I’ve closely watched the Eureka City Council since the Journal began publication in 1990. I rather liked the 12-year reign of Mayor Nancy Fleming — even with her close business ties. The council had many of its priorities straight: historic preservation, focus on the waterfront and Old Town, tourism promotion. A lot of very visible projects were started and accomplished. The following four years under Mayor Peter La Vallee the city’s focus shifted a bit toward a more Arcata-style agenda, but the council was bipolar and got less done. More recent councils have been made up of people with less imagination, fewer ideas — and they seemed to waste a lot of time and emotional energy on a divisive agenda. Potential council members had to pledge allegiance to one controversial private development (the Marina Center) and the east-west rail line boondoggle.
6 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, NOV. 27, 2014 • northcoastjournal.com
Hopefully those days are behind us. The council will still have Marian Brady representing the old guard. Melinda Ciarabellini’s independent streak has been a pleasant surprise. (She really stuck her neck out supporting Bergel over Newman.) Then there’s Linda Atkins, the token liberal from the old council who has been shamefully marginalized for years. With Arroyo, Atkins and now Bergel, the progs are driving the bus and it will be exciting to see where it’s going.
In other political news,
the Journal is going on record in support of the Times-Standard’s editorial of Nov. 13 calling for the immediate resignation of Aaron Newman from the Harbor Commission. He can no longer say, “I haven’t heard anything negative,” as he told the T-S, with a straight face. The T-S is taking some guff online for calling him a “poacher,” as did the Journal after Newman pleaded guilty to the misdemeanors of illegally obtaining hunting tags, lying to a state agency and misusing abalone tags. Let’s look at some facts: As soon as Newman lied under oath saying he lost his deer hunting tag, it invalidated the first tag, meaning Newman took that four-point buck by illegal methods. Similarly, his plea for “misuse of abalone tags” was for not tagging his catch correctly, and therefore taking them by illegal methods. His admitted conduct is absolutely poaching. There is no specific charge of “poaching” in the penal code or fish and game regulations, but harvesting fish and wildlife without following the rules is, by definition, poaching. Newman’s pattern of behavior stretching back 10 years as documented in court filings is extensive and screams habitual poacher. He is no doubt a good man in the eyes of his family and many friends, one who has accomplished much in his life. He just doesn’t think the rules applied to him. Because of that arrogance, he does not belong on a commission dedicated to the principle of conservation. And shame on fellow commissioners for not calling for his resignation. If an elected official is convicted of offenses while serving in office, especially ones so closely related to the job he is supposed to be performing, he should resign and not wait for voters to do the job for him.

POTENTIAL DOCKS FOR EUREKA-BOUND CRUISE SHIPS. GOOGLE EARTH AND AMY BARNES
Port of Call Eureka
Do cruise ship champions have a chance? By Grant Scott-Goforth newsroom@northcoastjournal.com
A
h, adventure on the high seas, the salt wind tugging at your hair, dampening your ascot. You walk breezily up the gangway, your next port of call … the Caribbean? The South Seas? Eureka? Humboldt County may seem unlikely competition to tropical climes, but some folks think that Eureka is poised to become a big cruise ship destination in the coming years. The charge is being led by outgoing City Councilman Chet Albin, who recently garnered financial support from the Harbor District, city of Eureka and county government to woo cruise ship captains into Humboldt Bay. That’s a bit of a gamble, especially for two small governments who both recently called on voters to increase taxes to fund fire, police and other services. Eureka also has no dedicated dock to house the giant ocean liners. The cruise industry itself has been through rough waters lately, with onboard illnesses routinely in the media. And there are some concerned about environmental impacts of bringing cruise liners into Humboldt Bay. But, with one berth already scheduled for 2017 and growing community support, there’s a decent chance Old Town could be crawling with cruisers by the end of the decade. Cruises, for anyone who’s unfamiliar, are complex trips, far more involved than walking onto a boat and drinking and eating for five days. Captains sail at night, pull into harbors around 6 a.m. and offload the 700 to 2,000 passengers typically on
board (those numbers vary on the size of the boat). About 20 percent of cruisers stay on the boat at any given stop, says Albin. Another 20 percent go on pre-arranged “excursions” — tours, adventures, tastings or other highlights of the town that are conducted by local businesses who contract with the cruise line. The remaining 60 percent typically wander around shops and restaurants in town until, around 6 p.m., everyone’s herded back onto the boat and the ship embarks for the next locale. It’s a whirlwind. Cruising is a $44-billion-a-year industry in the U.S. alone, according to a trade organization, and California cruising had a huge upswing in popularity in the 1990s. The late 2000s and early 2010s saw a decline in the industry, though the trade association showed that the industry expanded in 2013. The public perception of cruising — 700 people fell ill on ships in January of this year and another 170 were diagnosed with norovirus aboard one of the same ships this month — soured, according to the Los Angeles Times. Coordinating local infrastructure for cruise ships, as well as developing the cruise lines’ interest in Eureka, is falling squarely on the shoulders of Bruce Conner, the vice president of Cruise the West, a partnership of West Coast cities ranging from Ensenada, Mexico, to Victoria, British Columbia plus Hawaii united to bring in that sweet cruise ship money. Eureka, the county and the harbor district paid a combined $30,000 to hire Conner to lobby cruise lines and to enroll

Eureka in Cruise the West. It’s unclear exactly how far that $30,000 carries Eureka — Astoria, Oregon’s port pays $5,000 per year to be a member of Cruise the West according to the Daily Astorian. Conner’s based out of Astoria, which he and other proponents point to as a cruise success story. The tiny town at the mouth of the Columbia River is only about a third the size of Eureka but hosted 16 cruise ships — and approximately 30,000 people — this year. Even more are scheduled for the next two years. By Albin’s estimate — and keep in mind he’s promoting the hell out of the thing — each cruise ship brings in $150,000 to $300,000 in tourist spending, dockage fees, longshoreman fees and other cash. But Astoria’s been in the cruise ship game for 30 years, according to an article in the Oregonian. With a $10 million investment in the city’s pier, and an army of volunteer “cruise hosts,” the town is well equipped to handle big boats. Eureka has no such infrastructure, which puts the city in a bit of a chickenegg scenario. Albin says the city’s Dock B, west of the balloon track, would be ideal for cruise ships, but it’ll need millions of dollars of improvements to handle them. The Samoa Pulp Mill’s dock is in great shape — but it’s across the bay from town and shuttling people would be complicated and expensive. An agreement has been forged with the owners of the Schneider Dock (a bit south of Dock B), allowing Conner to start booking ships, but that dock is still used to ship timber and isn’t available all the time. But Albin and others are convinced that if they can get a few ships into Eureka — and prove this is a desirable area to tourists and thusly cruise directors — the infrastructure will fall into place. Not to mention that it introduces tourists to Eureka without subjecting them to the South Broadway corridor — a constant source of consternation for some of Eureka’s business community. “Proving that we can provide this for the cruise lines gives us a better chance of getting $5 million or $10 million — whatever it costs to get Dock B revitalized,” Albin said. Jack Crider, the CEO of the Harbor District, came to Humboldt Bay from
Astoria in 2012 and praised Conner’s work there. Despite “tremendous competition,” Crider said the cruise industry is always looking for another stop. Conner is hard at work selling Eureka. Before the Eureka City Council on Nov. 18, he said he’s been promoting the area to cruise bigwigs and ship captains. “I just use one word,” he told the council. “Redwoods.” Actually, he went on, Eureka has more than that, which is why the Cruise the West board unanimously felt that Eureka was an ideal addition to the West Coast itinerary. The deep water, proximity to the ocean and opportunities for tourists should, Conner said, draw in ships that transition from southern waters in the winter to Alaskan tours in the summer. Eureka will be an ideal place in spring and fall for those ships to “reposition.” Meanwhile, he said, American cruisers have been abandoning Mexico trips over fears of danger and bad press about swine flu — increasing the popularity of West Coast trips. Eureka has more excursions opportunities than Astoria, Crider said, and it’ll be easier to dock here than Catalina. But some are concerned about the environmental impacts of the ships. “Historically cruise ships have a pretty terrible track record for doing the right thing environmentally,” said Jennifer Savage, coastal programs director for the Northcoast Environmental Center. [Savage is also the Journal’s music columnist and a contributor]. Cruise ships produce massive amounts of sewage — 150,000 gallons for a 3,000-person ship at sea for a week, according to Savage. In 2012, federal law made it illegal to dump untreated sewage into the ocean in California’s marine waters, which extend 3 miles off shore. (One industry association asks that its member companies voluntarily don’t discharge untreated water). On top of that there’s bilge water, gray water and tons of solid waste. While enforcement is tricky, “it’s unlikely they’re going to come into Humboldt Bay and discharge illegally,” Savage said, but added that it’s important to try and lure cruise lines that rate well on environmental issues. (Friends of the Earth produces a yearly “Cruise Report Card” which
rates lines and ships by sewage treatment, air pollution reduction and water quality compliance.) Air emissions regulations are scant, though, and according to Outside, the fuel typically used to power cruise ships is dirtier than truck diesel. Savage said that could have a more direct effect on North Coast residents, as cruise ships typically run their engines even when in port to produce electricity. “It’s only been in recent years that [cruise lines] have been forced to be accountable,” Savage said. “I would hope that the county and the harbor district would take a very careful look at what they’re encouraging.” The week of Conner’s city council presentation, he was in town to meet with local vendors and seek out ideas for excursions. He’s already putting together a package to pitch to cruise ships: oyster tours, beer tours, Founders Grove, Trees of Mystery, a movies-shot-in-Humboldt tour. He’s looking into how to provide security and transportation as well — there’s a great deal of coordination, crowd control and screening. John Prince, the Eureka port director for U.S. Customs and Border Protection, said his office won’t be terribly impacted, because most cruise ships will be coming from at least one domestic port before they reach Eureka. “If there is a direct foreign ship — in other words one from Canada or Mexico — then it’s going to have a major impact for my office.” Prince said organizers understand this — and even if they do book a foreign ship, it’s usually done with years of advance notice. Finally, Conner said he’s begun to talk with local merchants and residents about starting a volunteer cruise host program — ushers, of sorts, to greet and direct the cruisers that disembark but don’t go on excursions. With itineraries planned years in advance, we’re unlikely to see anything before 2016, but Crider, Conner and Albin all admit that there’s still much work to be done before the first cruise ship can land. It’s clearly not only Albin’s passion, but his attempt at a legacy. Appointed to the city council in December 2013, he was defeated in November by Natalie Arroyo who will take the seat in January. Albin recalled that a friend told him he had two choices when he took the council seat. “You can be a toggle switch,” he said his friend told him, doing homework on items that come before the council and voting appropriately. “The other thing you can do is try and make something happen.” l
Thursday Night Special
I
t is only Monday, but already I find myself repressing the urge to shop at Walmart Thursday night. The store will open at 6. That gives me time to clear the dishes if I can get everyone seated at the table early enough. And I never shop at Walmart. That urge comes from newspaper stories and blogs and magazines and TV and radio news and ads. Black Friday and CyberMonday are now almost as big as the Super Bowl, and that’s only super big because of the commercials. Unexplainable non-hormonal urges are media driven. It is hard to grasp because our media is so fragmented these days that we don’t know where we get our information. We might check out a news story on the web for two seconds because of a link from Facebook or Twitter or catch half a commercial as we fast forward through the football game. We don’t even think about it. But when the same message comes to us indirectly from many sources, we process it as something we simply know. Walter Lippman told us that back in 1922 in a book called Public Opinion. Right now, the news and entertainment industries send us two unified messages: We must shop and we must fear. The combination is powerful, because when you find yourself fearful, you feel the need to buy something. If the solution to a problem can’t be found in a store, it seems unsolvable. That’s how we feel about climate change and contagious disease. And that’s why our answer to gun violence is to go out and buy ourselves guns and make sure the government can’t stop us from doing it. To understand unified messages, imagine the news and entertainment industries sending us an alternate message over the Christmas season: Don’t shop. Stay home. Keep your wallet closed. Have you read or heard or seen that message in any news story or a TV show or movie? Has it been the basis of any story plot? And you won’t see this message: Don’t fear.
To test my theory, I plugged “Ebola” into Google News to find any reassuring stories on that front. To my surprise I did. ABC News just reported that Liberia would be Ebola-free by Christmas, according to the Liberian government. But at the same time ABC News also had this headline: “US Looking Past Ebola to Prepare for Next Outbreak.” While we see news story after news story about cops shooting kids and kids shooting kids, we don’t see this unified message: Don’t buy guns. Instead you can find them specially priced for Christmas. And our movies and TV shows make those guns so sexy. I watch a lot of British TV. I find myself screaming at the cops in those shows, “Where is your gun, you idiot?!” And I’m a gun law advocate. Last year in Great Britain, 11 police officers died on duty, all in car or helicopter crashes. In California last year, almost three times as many were killed by gunshots in the line of duty, with another two killed in accidental shootings. A few years ago, I was at the playground at the Arcata Community Center, watching my kid climb like a monkey when I saw a car drive up with a mom and some kids. When they piled out of the car, she opened the trunk and handed each kid what looked like a military grade weapon. My heart skipped a beat until I realized they were water pistols. Then I pictured the kids chasing each other and a police officer coming upon one of them at the wrong time. What would he see? A kid with an automatic weapon pointed at a playground filled with children. The mom seemed like someone just like me. To this day I think: What was she thinking? To all you people who are going to Walmart or logging onto Amazon to buy your kid a water pistol or a BB gun, what are you thinking? But you aren’t. It takes enormous mental strength these days to fight off the combined power of the unified messages. Fear, shop, fear, shop. Solutions are on sale. Protection for purchase. Guns are sexy. Guns are fun.
This year it seems that the Christmas season began the day after Halloween. I wonder how many people will gift-wrap a toy Uzi 9mm submachine gun ($8.23 on Amazon) or a toy AK-47 rifle ($18.88 on Amazon) to put under the tree. Both qualify for free shipping on orders over $35. You can’t buy those at Walmart, but you can get some pretty scary-ass BB guns. This week began with the shooting death by police in Cleveland of 12-yearold Tamir Rice, who had been holding an Airsoft replica BB gun. Closer to home, Tommy McClain won’t be sitting at a Thanksgiving table this year with friends or family. He was shot to death Sept. 17 on his front lawn after a birthday celebration by Eureka cops who thought he was reaching for a gun. He had a replica BB gun in his front waistband. We are having conversations on college campuses and schools about preventing shooting deaths by arming teachers and letting students carry their own guns as protection. The more of our friends and neighbors and classmates and teachers have guns, the more compelled we feel to buy our own. We need to purchase our own protection. We react to tragedy and fear by reaching for the quick solution, one we see repeated in movies and on TV. Don’t think. Reach for the gun. But to reach for the gun you first have to reach for the wallet. You might as well do it now, while it is on sale and in time for Christmas. Plus there’s the free shipping. Who can resist that?

Ready, Set, Squash
Time’s a’creepin’ up on you Humboldt gardeners planning to put a little GMO oomph into your winter gardens — some genetically modified beans or broccoli, cabbage or cauliflower, perhaps? (We’re mainly looking at you, rebel Nathan Rex, and your promised GMO squash garden.) On Dec. 2, the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors is set to certify the results of the November election. Measure P, which bans the growing, cultivation or propagation of genetically modified organisms, passed with 61 percent of the vote. Ten days after the board certifies the vote (Dec. 12, if all goes as planned), the ban goes into effect. Nobody is permitted to grow new GMOs — except in a controlled laboratory setting — after that. However, those who already have crops growing before the ban date will have until Jan. 1, 2016, to eradicate them. Humboldt County Agricultural Commissioner Jeff Dolf — whose department is in charge of enforcing the new law — told the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors recently that he’s still refining the details of the new enforcement program and will report back in early 2015. “There is still a lot for me to work out in terms of reviewing the language of the ordinance,” he said, adding he’s consulting with counsel as well as with a geneticist. — Heidi Walters l EMERGENCY / HEALTH
Plane Crash Investigation
The Federal Aviation Administration continues to investigate a small plane crash near Garberville on Friday that killed Jerold Phelps Community Hospital’s chief
emergency room doctor. Humboldt County Deputy Coroner Roy Horton said an autopsy has been scheduled for Nov. 25 to determine the exact cause of death for Douglas Todd Pleatman, 59, an El Dorado County doctor who commuted by plane to work at the Garberville hospital. Horton said witnesses said they saw Pleatman’s plane circling the area near the Garberville airport before they heard the plane’s engines stop, at which point the plane collided with a tall fir tree, clipping off one of its wings, and crashed into the South Fork of the Eel River. Pleatman, the plane’s sole occupant, was found deceased when authorities arrived. — Thadeus Greenson

Motion Denied in Kneeland Murder Case
The federal case against a Kneeland man accused of murdering a worker on his marijuana farm will continue to trial, a judge ruled Nov. 18. Through his attorney, J. Tony Serra, Mikal Xylon Wilde had argued that the indictment charging him with cultivating more than 1,000 marijuana plants and murder in the commission of a narcotics offense should be thrown out because federal marijuana laws are “arbitrary and irrational” and fail to recognize marijuana’s medicinal value, violating Wilde’s rights to due process and equal protection under the Fifth Amendment. In his ruling denying Serra’s motion, Judged Edward Chen said a court may not simply substitute its policy judgment for that of Congress. Further, Chen said, the allegations in

Wilde’s case stand in stark contrast to those of “individuals with serious medical needs who have sought a constitutionally protected right to use marijuana for medical treatment.” In Wilde’s case, he stands accused of operating a 1,600-plant marijuana grow that he employed several men to tend, arming them with guns to guard the crop. When the men asked to be paid and returned to their homes near Sacramento, Wilde allegedly opened fire on them, killing Mario Roberto Juarez-Madrid and seriously wounding Fernando Lopez. Wilde remains slated to stand trial in February and faces life in prison if convicted. — Thadeus Greenson l
It looks like Eureka’s going to seat what’s believed to be the first all-female city council in its history, after Kim Bergel has pulled out an improbable upset of incumbent Ward 3 Councilman Mike Newman. A post-election update shows Bergel — after finishing Election Day trailing Newman by 104 votes — now has a 46vote lead. The results are not final, but Humboldt County Registrar of Voters Carolyn Crnich said there is only a “slim” chance they’ll change in any substantive way before they come before the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors for certification. Other notable outcomes from the election results update are the passage of Eureka City Schools’ bond measure and the narrow failure of that of Jacoby Creek School District.

COURTS / CRIME
EPD Shooting: No Charges
There will be no criminal charges against Stephen Linfoot, the Eureka police officer who shot 22-year-old Tommy McClain to death on Sept. 17. A District Attorney’s office press release states, “After reviewing the [Critical Incident Response Team investigation] report in its entirety, the District Attorney’s Office concluded that the evidence does not prove beyond a reasonable doubt that an officer committed a crime. Therefore, no criminal charges will be filed against any officer. …” The press release describes the events of the evening that resulted in McClain’s death, matching statements made by Eureka Police Chief Andy Mills following the incident. See links to previous coverage and the DA’s full press release at www. northcoastjournal.com. — Grant Scott-Goforth l COMMUNITY / MEDIA
Anchors Aweigh!
The North Coast has a new TV news program. Back in spring the Journal caught wind that KRCR out of Redding was launching a news program to rival our local NBC affiliates at KIEM. The news program, which debuted on Nov. 17, will air at 6 p.m. on KAEF ABC 23 and at 10 p.m. on KBVU Fox 28 — two of KRCR’s local sister stations. The station came together in the downtown Eureka KAEF building under the guidance of assistant news director Lindsay Housaman, who will anchor the program. There are four reporters: Candase Chambers, Tyler Dahlgren, Katherine Harwood, and Nick Prete; and weatherman Mike Krueger. — Grant Scott-Goforth

Marley Natural
This Bob Marleybranded marijuana is certain to be most popular in an allposters.com-laden, painted-white, brickwalled cube while a pirated copy of Legend plays in the background, but it’s the perfect stocking stuffer for both those new-to and well-experienced in cultural appropriation. Your slack-jawed frat nephew Carter will love the Marley-family-approved, privateequity-founded bud, while niece Sienna will be thrilled to boldly open a package of Marley Natural in front of her stodgy parents when she’s back from her semester abroad in Costa Rica. For: The trustifarian in your life.
The Herbalizer
The farthest you can get from a holepunched Mountain Dew can, this ludi-
crous smoking implement looks like Roomba and a Foreman Grill mated on sheets Gene Roddenberry bought from a Sharper Image catalog. Retailing for $729 (Black Friday, though!), The Herbalizer, or “Herbie”, features an auto-dimming LCD screen and a 32-mhz 16-bit processor — “That’s more than the SEGA Genesis,” the manufacturer’s blurb boasts(?). Plus it can fill up a plastic bag with vapors really, really fast, as you can see for yourself on YouTube. “This really is rocket science,” the manufacturers promise. Well, not really, but, you know, puff on. For: That person you know who keeps his or her phone on during takeoff and actually ordered something from Skymall.
The stoned kitty lover in your life absolutely needs one of these printed “Catnip Dispensaries,” a thin-walled cardboard box without a bottom (“easy to assemble”!) for your cat to … sit in. But that’s not all — Fluffy’s new digs are decorated to look like a shady inner city weed shop, complete with a cartoon drug dealer type, and some bootleg pot puns. A moment of silence may be in order — Meowses failed to get the $25,000 it wanted to start mass producing catnip dispensaries and the accompanying “Milk Bar,” but hey — Ben Franklin probably

struck out a few times, too, guys. If you drop a line to the Brooklyn based designers, maybe they’ll sell you one of their mockups in time for Christmas. For: Aunt Carla, you know, the one with six cats and the greenhouse you’re not allowed in.
Foria Cannabis Lube
These days stoners are sticking weed everywhere. Help the sensual woman in your life with this specially designed vaginal lubricant infused with marijuana (sorry, I guess, fellas). After all, the reason for the season is pleasin’. For: Also, Aunt Carla.
Tommy Chong’s Smoke Swipe
Know someone who can’t get through the day without a toke but his or her boss just isn’t down with the herb? Stick it to the man with Tommy Chong’s Smoke Swipes, which apparently remove marijuana odors from clothes instantly. “The customer simply places a swipe on their fingers, rubs the applicator across clothing to neutralize odors, and replaces it into its re-sealable package.” If you’re worried about exactly how it works, or if it’s effective, don’t! For: Bus drivers, cops, nurses, construction workers, that co-worker who needs to mellow out.
DC’s Harley Quinn Annual #1
For those who want to embrace the odors, scratch and sniff is back. Imagine little Dick and Jane’s faces lighting up as they pore over probably the first comic book with “scents designed to offend, inform and amuse.” There’s leather, pizza burps and, wouldn’t ya know it, the scent of “Cannibisylocibe 7-A,” a hallucinogenic substance created by a hideous egg creature who wanted to dose everyone into not noticing he was a freak so he could get a rent-controlled apartment in New York City. Seriously. Anyway, the scratch ‘n’ sniff concept is clever, and the Cannibisylocibe (made from a strain of “dingleberry haze”) odor is among the least offensive, though it’s not earthy enough to be anything but a joke. Well played, DC. For: Adults who still read comic books. l

Losers
By Christopher Christianson, Shelter Cove “I’m a loser,” said Charles. “No,” said Brian. They sat at the bar. “You’re a winner. Everyone you see here is a winner.” He spread his arms wide and smiled. “How so?” asked Charles, drinking. “Well,” said Brian. “We were all sperm once — one of millions, going for the same thing at the same time in the same place. Think of the odds!” He laughed. “But we won.” He slapped Charles on the back. “We’re winners!” Charles thought of it. That night, after masturbating, Charles felt like a winner as he flushed all the losers down the toilet. This made me laugh, and unlike many of the other entries, the humor was intentional. — Jay Aubrey-Herzog

ell, aren’t you a pill-popping, lover-offing, strangernapping lot? Channeling Westerns, lurking around noir, donning armor, stalking cosmos, dallying with meta or just up late channeling confessions. And is that frog your id? The finch your conscience? We don’t know. But you are prolific, walloping us with a record 351 submissions — 21 from our winning man in Canada, alone! Canada, pfft. Who let him in? Kidding, Peter! Entries came by email, hand-delivery and post (some lovingly wax-sealed). An entire English class joined the fray. We and our notorious judges slogged — hearts racing! — through them. Here, now, we present our favorites. — Heidi Walters
The Judges Our literary judges this year were Jay Aubrey-Herzog, bookseller at Northtown Books; David Holper, English professor at College of the Redwoods; and Kitty Yancheff, librarian at the Humboldt County Library. Each selected his or her top three picks. The NCJ editorial staff chose the overall winner — “Noses” — and the runners up.
pace. “I live down here.” She turned down a cul-de-sac. He followed. She stopped at a house obscured by tangled vines. “Want to come in for something cold?” He jogged in place, face flushed, grinning. “Sure.” She smiled. He’d make a fine addition to her basement collection.

Noses
By Peter Mehren, Toronto, Canada “Let’s get one thing straight,” she said, as we sat chatting over coffees. “If we ever kiss, which I doubt will happen, but if we ever do, noses to the right.” I looked from her eyes to her nose and back again. “Meaning?” “Meaning I don’t want clumsy, amateurish bumping of noses and foreheads and chins. We’re not beginners. If I ever decide you can kiss me, which — ” “I know: you doubt.” “Yes. It won’t be a sneak attack, so don’t think about doing that. No, just like deciding on which side of the road to drive: noses right.” This quick, playful sketch of a pair of characters and their burgeoning relationship tickled us without wasting a word — just easy dialogue and reading between the lines. —NCJ

The Frog Clan KITTY YANCHEFF
Encounter
By Stephen Sottong, Eureka She jogged on, feeling his eyes intent on the sway of her hips. He jogged beside her, young, shirtless, sweat-soaked shorts clinging, days beard growth, broad chest heaving. “Hi.” “Hi.” He glanced furtively at the rhythm of her tanktop. “Haven’t seen you jogging before.” “I vary my time.” She slowed. He kept
By Neil Tarpey, Eureka My burning headache worsened, so I bought water at a desert market. “Will you trade your bracelet?” asked an Indian woman sitting in the shaded doorway. “It shows the frog clan — my mother’s people.” The bracelet had circled my wrist for nine years, so I hesitated. “What do you offer?” She handed over her corn maiden kachina doll. I fingered the cottonwood’s lightness, considered the painted symbols, the masked face. I gave her my bracelet. She slid it on, her brown eyes sparkling.

That night, while I dreamed of a frog jumping through a moonlit cornfield, my fever broke. This story as brief as it is seems a gem in that it is both complete in itself and evokes a sense of character, mystery and myth. — David Holper JAY AUBREY-HERZOG
Typo
By Iain MacDonald, Arcata “A gnu?” the bank clerk queried. “Just hand over the money and nobody gets hurt,” the man growled. But the clerk was still reading the note. “This says gnu,” she repeated. “I’m losing my patience,” he threatened. At last she looked up, and she was laughing. “This says, I have a gnu,” she told him. She laughed again, louder this time. “Okay, don’t say you weren’t warned,” the man said grimly. The final sound she ever heard was the thunder of hooves. KITTY YANCHEFF
By Stilson Snow, Eureka The sound of anxious, flapping wings. Looking out my window, I see the finch caught in the netting, turn back and sip my coffee. I push the button and listen to the message, again. “Ben, you can’t stay away forever. I know you’re there. Pick up. Please.” Long sigh. “Julie needs you.” Pause. “Please.” Hang up. My mind wanders out to the road. The fluttering of finch wings draws me back. I sip, again, and glance at the picture of Julie and me, all those years ago. I put down the cup and go to set the finch free. JAY AUBREY-HERZOG
The Tooth Ferret
By Steve Brackenbury, Fortuna They told him if he put his tooth under the pillow he would find money waiting for him in the morning. “Dumb ferret,” he muttered as he got under the covers; for you see, he had heard it all wrong. “Ferrets ain’t got no pockets to keep things in and
Old Sam
By Garrett Purchio, McKinleyville The overgrown grass and rotting wood of the dugout couldn’t ruin Old Sam’s day. He was here. The scene of so many games. So many fans. So many memories. He could still smell the hot dogs and popcorn. “My time has come,” said Old Sam. He sat down. His walker creaked with the added weight. He had passed two boys outside the stadium. Their laughter from throwing around a baseball had warmed him on this

continued from previous page they’re mean and dirty. I hate ferrets.” Midnight came. His eyes were shut but he was wide-awake. The bedroom door slowly opened. He tightened his grip on the handle of the sharp knife he had taken from the kitchen drawer. He was ready for that stupid old ferret. KITTY YANCHEFF
The Vow
By Joseph E. Lerner, Arcata He heard laughter inside the bar, boasts of rape and murder. He entered and straddled a barstool. Nearby six men sneered then looked away, not thinking him a threat. He twisted his wedding ring, loosening then setting it on the bar. He wouldn’t muddy her memory with what he planned to do. Ordering a whisky, same brand as theirs, he told himself their final sentence would be mild compared to their own heartless deeds. He rose, his pistol out. Moments later all six were dead. He left the whisky, a silver dollar, gathered his ring, and left the tavern. DAVID HOLPER
Dying Happy
By E.B. Kirwan, McKinleyville It started with Jason-who-had-cancer. Somehow terminal illness made the sex that much better. It felt precious, temporary, fragile ... like a gift. After that, she couldn’t get off unless the guy was close to death. But terminal patients are hard to come by, and she was a creative girl. A problem solver. And the muscle spasms of an O.D. are nothing if not orgasmic. She’d hold them close as they gasped, bucked; whisper love as their breathing ceased. Afterward, she’d light a cigarette like it was Sacrament, exhaling Last Rites. They always died happy.

Hell To Pay
By Anthony Westkamper, Carlotta No one knew what to expect when he reopened Sweeny’s old herbarium. He was the Glittering Man on account of the way he walked and talked and dressed. His potions, salves and notions were quite miraculous. Now, I alone, am left to rue the dark and moonless night we chose to rob him. William took his right arm, Robert his left. A wallop from my shillelagh settled him right down. We took rings and watch. Bobby fancied his shoes. When he pulled ’em off in the dim light we all saw his polished hooves. NCJ
With Apologies to John Wesa
By John Onstine, Eureka It was dusk. The farmer and his dog were looking up at a flying saucer. It hovered 20 feet off the ground without making a sound. Looking back through a small round window was a chicken. The farmer was troubled. He had eaten chicken for dinner that night. A small cruel smile played across the chicken’s face. The farmer’s dog whined softly and started to back up, putting distance between himself and his owner. Noting the movement, the farmer silently cursed the cowardly dog and began to sweat. NCJ
Collateral on the Fuel Jug
By Arnold King, Eureka Letdown flashed across the ATM screen. He scanned keywords in the statement, like a lover scans a breakup email the first time through in order to absorb pain in consumable waves. “Insufficient …” “This request ...” This request was $20. Balance inquiry. $18.12. He went inside for $10. The woman ahead had dirty elbows.

Peering closer, it was newsprint. He pictured her up late, at her kitchen table, perhaps studying for something better, growing tired, head in hands. He walked back to Texaco for one gallon and a SuperLotto ticket. He left behind his license for collateral on the fuel jug. NCJ
Snake
By Doug Ingold, Arcata Western diamondback rattler, the sign said. Crotalus atrox. A good-sized snake, thick, 4-feet long or better, confined and enraged behind a wall of glass. The boy liked to stand nearby as people passed: how it struck at them, smashing its mouth and fangs against the glass, smearing the surface with a milky, semen-like substance, the sound of it hitting. He was thrilled by the speed and violence, by the sudden slap against the glass, by the gasps and leaps of the passersby, by the slight nausea he felt at this cruelty masquerading as science, by his own guilty pleasure. NCJ
Demolition
By Joseph E. Lerner, Arcata In a large hotel scheduled for demolition, antique fixtures of crystal and stained glass twirl beneath tall tin ceilings while below, along scaffolding and ladders, a disposal crew scrambles, wielding pliers like giant pincers. Wires snap like frayed nerve-endings and lamps topple, shattering onto the distant parquet floor.
Their work done, the workers leave. Years pass, the hotel forgotten, the demolition incomplete. Eventually herds of rhino and wildebeest take residence there: They relish the crackly light, the shards that don’t pierce so much as scour their raw scabrous skin, the itch of centuries slowly discharged like spent lightning bolts. NCJ
Untitled
By Sue Buscher, McKinleyville It was then that the fish chose to leap, and the startled boy saw that the end of his hook disappeared into the side of its head, where its eye should have been, where only a gray, deflated sac was now. The trout, lightly speckled and fluid sterling, flipped to show his other rainbowed side, and the boy looked into the eye that was there. It stared at him, glistening, enormous, unblinking, and then the whole body slapped the surface, burying itself in water, never to be slick, silver or the same again. NCJ
The Place
By Bruce M. Taylor, Trinidad He rounded the last of the seemingly endless turns through the alders and the firs, and there it was, the remnants of the cabin. The place where his sister had been born. The place with the creek where he’d caught his first fish, and that had also saved his family from the wildfire one autumn. It was the place he raised a pup, and then buried his best friend. The place he dreamt of often, and that couldn’t grow old, as he had done. Now, it would be the place where, somehow, he would spread his mother’s ashes.

Niche Market
By Peter Mehren, Toronto, Canada In the pond, washing off the sweat and bits of hay, Anders said, “I’m moving to Italy. Do you want to come with me?” “Italy. Why?” “It’s warmer in Winter.” “What do you plan to do there?” “Teach Swedish.” “Do you think there’s a big demand for that?” “Admittedly, it’s a niche market. But Italian men love you tall, blonde women.” “They can talk to us in Italian. Or English. Have you thought this through?” “You want to come?” Agnethe submerged, came up, shook her long, blonde hair, then swam back to her clothes on the shore. “No, thanks.” NCJ
To Have and To Hold
By Iain MacDonald, Arcata “Do you understand what I’m saying?” he raged. “I’m sick of you, I’m leaving, and there’s nothing you can do to stop me!” Her head lowered, she gave the briefest of nods. With a disgusted snort, he stormed out of the room, slamming the door behind him. She sat unmoving, but a tiny smile was starting to play around the corners of her mouth. She could almost feel the weight of the paper in her pocket. How things had changed, she thought. Time was, he always had to be the one to check their lottery numbers.

In Came Morning
By Allyson Boltzen, Arcata The smell was pungent, and the air was dank with mold and must. It was only barely bright enough to see shadows dancing across the weeping wallpaper. It felt like the room was moving, swaying back and forth like a carnival ride. It made me sick. I stood up slowly and staggered over to a lone door. I traced the tired wood, every crack, every small split. Its rough exterior felt cold against my prodding fingers. I followed a line downward and touched a small, metal knob. I turned it, and the door cracked — I welcomed the auspicious morning. NCJ

All Hail the Queen of Kale
Meagan Baldy’s kitchen revolution By Amy Barnes
tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com
W
atch a few of Meagen Baldy’s cooking videos and you might just think you’ve found a new best friend. Approachable, spunky and down to earth, she films Cooking Healthy in Indian Country in her own kitchen. Her show airs on the Access Humboldt TV network and has hundreds of followers on YouTube. A Hoopa tribal member and the oldest daughter in a family of six children, Baldy started cooking when she was 8 years old. “My dad was a single father and he was like, ‘OK, I really need your help.’ We were a very poverty stricken family,” she says. “My goal was making sure my brothers and sisters were fed.” These days, Baldy wants her family to eat well, but she wants to teach her community about healthy eating, too. Diabetes, heart disease and low iron and calcium counts are rampant in the native population. She aims to change that by encouraging her people to improve their diet using locally sourced, affordable and accessible ingredients. In her recipes, Baldy integrates Hoopa food commodities and in-season fruits and vegetables from local farms and the community garden. She even alerts viewers when certain ingredients are on
sale at the only grocery store in town. “I think one of the misconceptions of eating healthy is ‘Oh, I have to get some exotic, expensive food from somewhere I don’t know,’” she says. Baldy wants folks to know healthy food is available in their own backyards. In her role as community garden manager and cooking instructor for the Klamath Trinity Resource Conservation District (KTRCD), Baldy noticed people consistently failed to pick up their veggie club food shares. She eventually discovered why: “People didn’t know how to use what they were getting.” Things like kale, collard greens and bok choy were unfamiliar and mystifying. Baldy admits that at first even she didn’t know what to do with some of the stuff. So she decided to find out. On a whim she photographed a newly discovered kale and egg dish and posted it online. “A lot of our people here have social media,” she explains. The community response was great, and from there, her project took off. “I started out filming on my cell phone. I had an elk horn hair stick and a little basket and that was my prongs to hold up my camera.” She laughs, saying, “I kinda injun’-rigged up a little device to accomplish the first filming.”
Restaurant 301 & Carter House Inns 301 L St, Eureka (707) 444-8062 she asserts, detailing her cunning strategy of slowly introducing vegetables by hiding them in his favorite meaty dishes. It’s not for nothing she’s nicknamed “Queen of Kale.” Over the years, Baldy has taken food safety and training courses, but says her knowledge of cooking comes primarily from life experience. “I’ve always been in the kitchen. I love food. I really love food. It’s my favorite thing in the world.” Baldy hopes to expand her project throughout Humboldt County by collaborating with more producers, farmers and craftspeople. She welcomes community input, and encourages viewers to contribute ideas or recipes by messaging her on the Cooking Healthy in Indian Country Facebook page. In her videos, Baldy butchers mule deer and slices strawberries, fires up her Ninja blender and fries squash at high temperatures. Periodically, one of her boys leans into view with a zealous grin. In a particularly memorable scene she declares, “The eggplant is a misunderstood fruit,” foisting it at the camera for close inspection. Then, cradling it carefully in her hands, she explains the importance of leaving the peel intact, as the vitamins are in the skin. She’s sure to thank the local farmer who gave it to her. ●

Roasted Squash and Kale Salad
A FEW SCENES FROM BALDY’S SELFFILMED YOUTUBE VIDEO SERIES.
Eventually, she launched a Go Fund Me campaign to buy a video camera and tripod, and then KTRCD gave her a laptop for editing. Her project is supported by KTRCD, the Hoopa Valley Tribe and the Hoopa Food Distribution Center. Baldy’s enthusiasm is infectious. Thus, her four kids are wild about kale smoothies. Even her veggie-resistant husband is on board, though it took a little convincing. “Never deny the power of bacon,”
Baldy found this one on Health.com, but you can watch her whip it up on YouTube. Ingredients and method: 1 butternut squash 2 tablespoons olive oil 3 tablespoons brown sugar ½ teaspoon salt 1/3 teaspoon pepper 1 pound kale, thinly sliced 1 cucumber, peeled and julienned ¼ cup thinly sliced red onion 2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice 2 teaspoons sesame oil 1 teaspoon sugar 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter 2 teaspoons fresh ginger 1 tablespoon water Preheat the oven to 400 F. Peel, seed and cut the butternut squash into 1-inch chunks. Toss them with the olive oil, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Bake the mixture for 25 minutes. Remove it from the oven and let it cool. Toss the squash with the kale, cucumber and red onion. In a blender, purée the low-sodium soy sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, sugar, peanut butter, ginger and water. Drizzle the dressing over the vegetables and serve. ● northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, NOV. 27, 2014

Zipping around on an electric bike By Barry Evans and Louisa Rogers getout@northcoastjournal.com
W
e are long-term cyclists and ride our handy folding bikes a lot, both around Humboldt and beyond. Purists, we never thought we’d succumb to an electric bike. But last July, we surrendered and invested in one that we now share — and love. We walk as much as possible, and do most errands either on foot or bicycle. But there are times when cycling takes too much time, or is just plain unpleasant. Weekly trips from Eureka to Arcata on a bike would entail at least 40 minutes each way on the freeway. A trip through the Arcata Bottoms is lovely, but takes even longer. When we visited Southeast Asia last year, the number of electric bikes in (usually flat) cities and towns was amazing. The most popular model was manufactured in Vietnam, cost around $500, and had a range of about 15 miles before recharging. Seeing all these quiet, economical bikes was inspiring, and once we were back home, all the notes from an Humboldt State University Osher Lifelong Learning Institute class on electric bikes came out and the online research began. The choices were daunting. Complete bicycle or kit? That was pretty easy. We already had an old but very comfortable hybrid bike that we rarely used. Why pay for a bike when we already owned one? That narrowed the choices down, but there was still more to decide.
20 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • THURSDAY, NOV. 27, 2014 • northcoastjournal.com
Power hub on the front or back wheel? From the rider’s point of view, they feel much the same, so we went with the simpler front wheel replacement. Automatic or manual control? A controller in most kits sends more or less power to the hub, depending on the effort exerted by the rider. It’s the bike version of an automatic transmission in a car, and since both of us prefer stick-shifts, we went with manual control. On-off switch or adjustable throttle? I read online that most users with throttles keep them at full, so we elected for the simplicity of an on-off thumb button on the handlebars. Range? In order to cycle from Eureka to Arcata and back, we needed a battery with at least a 20-mile range. Having gone through that decision tree, online reviews and comments convinced us that a Seattle-based company, Clean Republic, had solid value-for-money kits. For $800, we bought their “Hill Topper” kit consisting of a replacement front wheel, a 20-mile range Lithium-ion battery and on-off button. Their kits start at $400, for an 8-mile range. Installation was pretty simple, although not the three-minute (!) conversion touted on the website, mainly because we had to file our bike’s front forks to accept the new wheel’s slightly wider axle, as well as add a couple of thick washers for a good fit. But the next day the bike was tooling along Waterfront Drive at 18 mph (according to our GPS) without pedaling. A week later, it made a 25-mile ride combining pedal and battery
power, and came home with juice to spare. After an overnight charge, the bike was ready to go again. The added speed is just phenomenal. It’s fast. On top of that, it’s a good fit for those in-between distances where we might otherwise give in to laziness, and (don’t tell anyone) drive. It’s not as much of a workout as a regular bike, of course, but we’re still using human pedal-assist power most of the time, and it’s more energy-efficient and less wasteful than driving. And then there’s the feeling! Press the button and you’re off, whisking down the road, as if on a magic carpet. There’s something delicious and childlike about the surge of power as it carries you along, like being weightless. Apart from trips to Arcata, we mostly use the electric bike to do errands. You can clip a pannier bag on the rear rack, next to the battery, and head off to the grocery store, library, or a meeting. Cycling to the home of an elderly friend who lives on Pigeon Point Road is far less of a chore now that dusty Myrtle Avenue flies by. Before we had one, an electric bike seemed more like a practical benefit than a joy ride. But we predict we’ll be seeing more and more bikes like ours around town, as people discover just how practical, economical and fun they are. l Louisa Rogers and Barry Evans live in Old Town Eureka. Rogers is a management trainer; Evans writes Field Notes for the Journal. Their 36-year marriage has (so far) survived having to share an electric bike.

Shopping locally...
- sends 3 times more money back into our local economy than shopping at chain stores. - builds community — you’ll probably run into someone you know or make friends with your favorite shopkeeper. - gives the community its one-of-a-kind personality by keeping unique businesses afloat. - puts less stress on our roads and other public utilities, thereby keeping taxes lower. - makes “green” sense — local stores are closer to the consumer, creating less traffic and pollution.

The Chris Robinson Brotherhood performs at Humboldt Brews on Wednesday, Dec. 3. Tickets are $25, show is 21-andover and starts at 8 p.m. Originally from The Black Crowes, Robinson’s side project blossomed into a full band that captures all the long legacy of California psychedelic blues rock. Dig this quote from the press release: “In an age when so many put their beliefs in trends, the volumes have all collapsed and rooms are filled with tiny rock and dampened lamps, the Chris Robinson Brotherhood rolls on to sharpen the blur at your brow and wind like smoke through your mind.” Do you feel it, baby? Humboldt Brews hosts a Phil and Friends Live Webcast broadcasting from New York’s Capitol Theatre both Friday and Saturday evening. The lineup includes Phil Lesh, Anders Osborne, Stu Allen, Marco Benevento, Joe Russo and Joan Osborne, starts early — 5 p.m., folks! — and is 21-and-over, no cover.

Listen to the ping of the blacksmith’s hammer as you watch demonstrations of centuries-old techniques for crafting iron, glass, wood and leather.

Slip into the ceramic studio to whip up a tile or work your fingers spinning a little yarn in the textile studio. Hear that lonesome whistle? Folks from the Clarke Historical Museum and will be on hand to learn you about history, and the Timber Heritage Association is hauling out the Steam Donkey and whistles that the kids can tug for a toot. Or adults. Oh, like you don’t want to. The Tumbleweeds, Joe Garceau, Jeff Kelley, Papa Paul, Sarah Torres, the Mad River Ramblers and other musicians provide the live soundtrack, since DJs just wouldn’t be period appropriate.

What better way to follow up Thanksgiving than a play about a patriarch who loses his mind as war rages between the children among whom he’s unwisely divided his kingdom? Too much like family dinner? Don’t worry — it’s better with costumes. Shakespeare’s family tragedy King Lear rages onstage at the Van Duzer Theatre on Sunday, Nov. 30 at 8 p.m. courtesy of Shakespeare’s Globe Theatre of London ($65, $10 HSU students). On film alone, Lear has been re-envisioned with every possible setting from an Iowa farm to feudal Japan. But there’s no cheeky updating or modern interpretation here — the Globe company does things old-school, recreating the plays as they were done in Elizabethan times on a small stage like the one the Bard himself would have used. The company has skipped across the pond with eight actors to play all the parts and bring the broken familial bonds, battles, madness and pageantry to life without high-tech tricks and fancy set pieces. (Take that, Baz Luhrmann.) Instead, the actors take us into the drama and the humor with their bodies, their voices and the words. — Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

WHO ELSE THOUGHT THIS WAS THE LAST MOVIE?
Starved for Action Mockingjay gets it half done By John J. Bennett filmland@northcoastjournal.com
Reviews
THE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAY PART 1. As cold as last year’s Catching Fire left me, of course I thought I’d enjoy this more. But as a heretofore-unrecognized wellspring of misplaced optimism, I was caught off guard. Mockingjay - Part 1 seemed like it would at least be exciting and grand, even if I couldn’t fully support the story or its themes. Turns out I was half right: I still can’t get into the story or its themes. Part 1 picks up shortly after the dramatic events that concluded Catching Fire. Katniss Everdeen (Jennifer Lawrence) is once again traumatized by the violence she has both witnessed and wrought. She’s being kept under secure observation in District 13, following escalated genocidal attacks by President Snow (Donald Sutherland). District 13, populated primarily by warriors, has become the seat of the steadily rising revolution in Panem. From their subterranean bunker, people’s President Alma Coin (Julianne Moore) and de facto Minister of Propaganda Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip Seymour Hoffman) have been hard at work, planning their next move against the Capitol. Unsurprisingly, Katniss is their primary weapon in the war for the hearts and minds of the
people of Panem. They intend to recast her as The Mockingjay (cue dramatic music) — the resistance personified. She’s reluctant at first but, Katniss being Katniss, she just can’t help but shoulder the responsibility. Accompanied by a camera crew, she sets out on a publicity tour of the worst ravaged districts. Meanwhile, Peeta Mellark (Josh Hutcherson), captive in the Capitol, has become Katniss’ PR foil. Interviewed at length by Caesar Flickerman (Stanley Tucci), his responses skew increasingly in favor of President Snow and against the resistance. Katniss fears for Peeta’s life, convinced that he is being controlled by nefarious means. She’s so worried about him that she all but ignores stoic young Gale Hawthorne (Liam Hemsworth), who is quite in love with her. Plot-wise, this feels like about half a movie, which in reality it is. Once again, the money-counters have strategically split the final book in a young-adult series into two features in order to wring every last dollar out of an unwitting audience. This might be tolerable, were there enough action or story to sustain two movies; there just isn’t. The first half of Part 1 drags along like an austere rehash of Catching Fire, with Katniss going through the same motions, albeit even more exhaustedly. And where I thought I could count on Lawrence’s spirit and compassionate vivacity in the lead role, she seems
washed out and distant. This is probably a choice on her part and on the part of returning director Francis Lawrence, but the effect works against its intent. Rather than reinforcing that Katniss’ experiences have traumatized and shocked her, Lawrence’s performance makes the character seem alternately aloof and inscrutable — at least until she erupts into hysterics, at which point she actually started to win me back a little. Although director Lawrence’s style is intentional and convincingly atmospheric — thanks in no small part to an astronomical continued on next page

continued from previous page production design budget — the visual rhythm of the movie is too often broken by forced speechifying and forlorn gazing. Too often it is telling rather than showing, often literally, with characters delivering overlong monologues into camera. For all its positive attributes, most of which are expensive, technical ones, Part 1 misses the mark when it comes to the basics. The lead performance feels a little off and the script is wordy and paddedout, lacking sufficient action to stay interesting. Which is a pity, because there are some well-executed, exciting sequences late in the movie. But my attention had been so drained by that point that it was difficult to muster any enthusiasm. In an effort to close on a positive note, I’ll say that Natalie Dormer (Game of Thrones, Rush) does a lot with the relatively minor part of Cressida, the director of Katniss’ ever-growing catalog of propaganda videos.

TS# 14-2075 NOTICE OF TRUSTEE’S SALE YOU ARE IN DEFAULT UNDER A DEED OF TRUST DATED: 7/3/01. UNLESS YOU TAKE ACTION TO PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY, IT MAY BE SOLD AT A PUBLIC SALE. IF YOU NEED AN EXPLANATION OF THE NATURE OF THE PROCEEDING AGAINST YOU, YOU SHOULD CONTACT A LAWYER. A public auction sale to the highest bidder for cash, cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, check drawn by a state or federal credit union, or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, or savings association, or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the Financial Code and authorized to do business in this state will be held by the duly appointed trustee, as shown below, all right, title and interest conveyed to and now held by the trustee in the hereinafter described property under and pursuant to a Deed of Trust described below. The sale will be made, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to satisfy the obligation secured by said Deed of Trust. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any shown herein. Trustor: Bill. I. Jones, Jr., an unmarried man Duly Appointed Trustee: Foreclosure Specialists LLC Recorded 8/28/01 as Instrument No. 2001-21758-4 of Official Records in the office of the Recorder of Humboldt County, California, Date of Sale: Thursday, December 4, 2014 at 10:30 a.m. Place of Sale: On the steps to the front entrance to the County Courthouse, 825 5th Street, Eureka, CA 95501 The common designation of the property is purported to be: 2638; 2640; and 2644 Myrtle Avenue, Eureka, CA 95503 APN: 016-222-020 Estimated opening bid: $172,753.73 Beneficiary may elect to open bidding at a lesser amount. The total amount secured by said instrument as of the time of initial publication of this notice is stated above, which includes the total amount of the unpaid balance (including accrued and unpaid interest) and reasonable estimated costs, expenses and advances at the time of initial publication of this notice. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand 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 property. 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 information. 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, beneficiary, 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 courtesy 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 the trustee’s information line at 530-2462727 or visit this Internet Web site: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS # 14-2075. 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. Date: 11/6/14 FORECLOSURE SPECIALISTS LLC 1388 Court Street, Ste C Redding, CA 96001 530-246-2727 Janelle Van Bockern, Trustee Sale Officer Foreclosure Specialists LLC is assisting the Beneficiary in collecting a debt.
