Editor: I enjoyed reading the package of articles in the Dec. 20, 2018, edition, “A Special Place,” about the work local conservation groups are doing to preserve and restore some of the beautiful natural landscapes we love so much here on the North Coast.

I’ve lived in Manila since 1994 and have enjoyed watching similar processes happening here on the North Spit (including Lanphere and Ma-le’l dunes) for the last 23 years. Kudos to the Manila Community Services District, Friends of the Dunes, BLM and the National Wildlife Refuge System for preserving and restoring much of the North Spit.

When I first moved here, off-highway vehicles roamed the dunes. Going for a walk was scary. Now the agencies involved have cooperated on a trail system that connects through most of the dune area, making for miles of beautiful, peaceful hiking.

The restoration that’s been done (and is ongoing) has slowly but surely uncovered the beautiful native dune mat that in spring and summer burst into joyous bloom, alive with the hum of the many native bees that depend on these plants.

It is so satisfying to see this gem of an ecosystem so well taken care of!

I love it that in the middle of all this is the Friends of the Dunes. Their Humboldt Coastal Nature Center offers a place for thousands of visitors every year (from as far away as New Zealand!) to get information on how to best enjoy and appreciate this local gem. Friends of the Dunes also provides excellent educational and recreational programs for children and adults.

We are blessed to have so many organizations dedicated to preserving and restoring our natural, wild environments here on the North Coast, supported by hundreds of community members who volunteer year round to make it happen.

An Important Omission Editor: Thank you for covering the important issue of the challenges people face in the local rental housing market in your Dec. 13, 2018, issue (“The Housing Games”).

There were several mentions in the article of housing practices that are, in fact, unlawful, such as landlords preferring “women over men, those with no children over parents, Caucasians over people of color,” and a statement suggesting that most landlords refuse to rent to people

with mental illness. The article, however, made no mention of the fact that these practices are illegal. Conspicuously absent was a discussion of the federal and state laws that protect housing seekers from discrimination or how to file a complaint — a missed opportunity to educate readers, as well as the student journalists who wrote the article.

The federal Fair Housing Act of 1968 celebrates its 50th anniversary this year.

Enacted one week after the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr., and sometimes referred to as the “forgotten stepchild of civil rights,” the Fair Housing Act protects people from being treated differently in the sale or rental of housing on the basis of race, color, national origin, religion, sex, familial status (having children) and disability. In California, people are also protected on the basis of sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status and source of income.

Unlawful housing discrimination can make an already extremely challenging housing search that much more difficult and discouraging, but it shouldn’t be that way. Unfortunately, enforcement of the law is often left up to the people who face discrimination. If you think you may have faced illegal housing discrimination, call HUD’s complaint hotline (800) 6699777. More information and resources can be found at www.hud.gov/fairhousing and

Editor: Regarding “A Burning Question” (Mailbox, Dec. 20): Alan Sanborn wonders why the fine tuning of universal fundamental constants has any more relevance than his leaving his house at exactly 10:17 a.m. on Tuesday. I have it on good authority that what he didn’t realize is that he’d been singled out by malicious extraterrestrials as the one human on Earth who could

avert their dastardly plan to annihilate our planet. Having a sporting streak, they allowed that they would call it off if — and only if — Mr. Sanborn was seen leaving his house at 10:17 on Tuesday … which he did, serendipitously saving us all. Thanks Alan!

Radioman Goes Live

The Hollenbecks’ play about military veterans debuts at Dell’Arte

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

A

couple of months ago, Eric and Viviana Hollenbeck were having a quiet dinner with longtime friends Michael Fields and his wife Lynnie Horrigan.

They talked about the Blue Ox Historic Village the Hollenbecks have run for decades and a bit about Dell’Arte International, where Fields works as the artistic director and Horrigan does costume design. Then the conversation turned to Radioman, the play the Hollenbecks have been co-producing for a few years.

It had kind of stalled, the Hollenbecks said. They believed they had stellar material. Renowned playwright Jim McManus had taken Uncle Sam’s Tour Guide to Southeast Asia, the book of poems Eric Hollenbeck penned while trying to come to grips with what he’d experienced as an 18 year old for seven and a half months on the frontlines of the Vietnam War, as well as interviews with scores of veterans in

Eureka and Oregon, and turned them into a great script. They’d done a couple of readings — one in Los Angeles and one at the Blue Ox — and the veterans’ monologues had touched people.

“People were crying,” Viviana Hollenbeck says. “They were choked up.”

Several theater companies were very interested in picking up the production, the Hollenbecks explained. The problem was the companies needed to see the play before they would commit to taking it on and efforts to raise enough funds to put on a showcase show — kind of a sneak preview for production companies — were stumbling.

“Well,” Fields told the couple, “Dell’Arte has its theater free for the entire month of January.”

In short order, Fields had agreed to help cast and co-direct the play, along with Roman Sanchez, sending Radioman hurtling toward an opening night that had seemed

It near constant combat with the North meant that the thing that had become Vietnamese Army, he was pulled from the the Hollenbecks’ obsession for more than front line and 72 hours later standing in two years — crafting a play based on the his mother’s kitchen.

walk by the camera with an M-16 rifle without a clip in it.

“It was jarring,” he says. “The whole thing lost me right then.”

Everyone’s working hard to make sure nothing similar happens at Dell’Arte, Fields says, adding that the cast has set up Google documents to share stories about veterans, music from the Vietnam era, recordings from the Hollenbecks’ shop and more to give the production a deeper layer of authenticity.

Hopes are clearly high for the production. Representatives from respected theater companies in La Jolla, California, and Denver, Colorado, have confirmed they will be in attendance, scouting for their upcoming seasons. Another in New York may send someone. It’s not lost on anyone that this is Radioman’s chance to leap to a larger stage that might enable the kind of traveling production the Hollenbecks have envisioned, bringing a focus on veterans to cities throughout the United States. The hope is it also might bring some additional resources to the Blue Ox, which co-producer Lester Grant set up as the official producer of the production, hoping it will become a kind of financial driver for the nonprofit.

Asked what he thinks it will feel like to walk into Dell’Arte on Jan. 10 and see parts of his life played out on the stage before him, Eric Hollenbeck says he knows it’s going to be rewarding. And difficult. He says he also knows he’s in a better place to go down that rabbit hole than he would have been even a handful of years ago.

Two things long haunted him about his time in the war, he says. The first was the sense that he and the 67 fellow members of his 101st airborne division didn’t have a mission in Vietnam. He now knows that wasn’t the case, explaining his division’s role was to search out the enemy and make contact in an effort to disrupt North Vietnam’s efforts to amass 15,000 soldiers for an offense.

“We stopped it,” he says.

The second thing that long haunted him, Eric Hollenbeck says, is this sense that he was a victim. He says he used to ask himself, “Why me?”

“I’ve come to the realization that somebody had to do it,” he says. “Why not me?

I wasn’t a victim. I was tough. I was good in the woods. It may as well have been me. That’s a big place to come to after 50 fucking years.” l Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@northcoastjournal.com. Follow him on Twitter @thadeusgreenson.

Hundreds of new laws take effect in the Golden State

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

H

undreds of new laws took effect in California on Jan. 1, regulating everything from drinking straws and bicycle helmets to worker pay and kids’ meals. Here’s a quick rundown of some of the important, noteworthy and quirky things that took effect New Year’s Day. Minimum Wage Hike: As the state continues its march toward a $15 minimum wage by 2022, the state’s lowest-paid workers just got a pay bump. The state minimum wage rose Jan. 1 to $12 for businesses with 26 or more employees and $11 for smaller ones. California is one of 20 states hiking wages for their lowest-paid workers this year as the federal minimum wage has been set at $7.25 since 2009. The living wage calculator created by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, meanwhile, estimates that a living wage in Humboldt County is $11.57 for a single adult and $25.83 for a single parent raising one child.

Gun Control: Beginning this year, California will prohibit anyone under the age of 21 from purchasing long guns, like shotguns and rifles. A similar restriction is already in place for handguns. Further, the state will now start requiring folks applying for a concealed weapons permit to undergo a minimum of eight hours of training and to pass a shooting test. Also, under Assembly Bill 3129, anyone convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence in the future will be prohibited from owning a firearm. A new law will also explicitly ban “bump stocks,” devices that allow semi-automatic weapons to fire more rapidly, like the one used in the Las Vegas mass shooting in 2017. Another law will also institute a lifetime gun ownership ban for anyone who has been hospitalized more than once in a year for mental health issues.

Straws: If you want a straw with your beverage while dining out, you’ll have to ask for it. A new law prohibits restaurants from providing plastic drinking straws unless specifically requested by a customer in an effort to raise awareness about the environmental impacts of disposable straws and lessen their use.

Kids’ Meals: Senate Bill 1192, aimed at curbing childhood obesity and diabetes, requires food establishments that market kids’ meals to offer water or milk as the default drink. Customers can still request to sub in sodas or juice.

Gender Identification: Californians will now have a non-binary gender option for their driver’s licenses and state issued identifications. Under Senate Bill 179, folks applying for a driver’s license or ID who don’t identify

8 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 3, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

as either male or female will be able to mark a non-binary category, which will be designated on the cards by the letter “X.” Police Records: California law — once among the most protective of police officer records in the country — will loosen considerably this year, giving the public new access to police disciplinary records and footage of officer-involved shootings and other critical incidents. Senate Bill 1421 gives the public access to internal investigations of incidents where officers have killed or seriously injured someone, as well as into allegations of sexual assault and lying on the job. Then in July, Assembly Bill 748 will take effect, requiring that police agencies release audio and/or video footage of shootings or other incidents involving the “serious use of force” within 45 days unless the release would interfere with an active investigation.

No Drill Zone: New state law will explicitly prohibit officials from approving new onshore facilities to process or aid offshore oil drilling in federal waters, a shot across the bow of Trump Administration efforts to open the California coast up to new oil drilling.

Female Board Members: Under a landmark law, any publicly traded corporation headquartered in California now must have at least some women on its board of directors.

The legislation — which would require the companies to include at least one woman on their boards by the close of 2019 and a minimum of two by July 2021 — is aimed at closing the gender gap in business. Companies found out of compliance face fines of $100,000 for a first offense and $300,000 for a subsequent violation. The law is expected to be challenged in court.

Breathalyzer: Under Senate Bill 1046, most people convicted of driving under the influence in the Golden State will have to temporarily install Breathalyzers in their vehicles to get their driver’s licenses back. The bill, modeled after a pilot program in Alameda, Los Angeles, Sacramento and Tulare counties, will sunset in 2026 if it isn’t renewed.

Electric Scooters: As the electric scooter rental craze continues to gain a foothold in cities and urban environs throughout the state, Assembly Bill 2989 will allow folks age 18 and older to ride them without a helmet on streets with speed limits of up to 35 miles per hour.

Cyclist Crash and Dash: California bicyclists will now be subject to the same hit-and-run provisions as their vehicular counterparts. Assembly Bill 1755 requires cy-

clists involved in a crash — whether on a bike path, a trail or a road — to stop at the scene.

Kids’ Helmets: Police officers can now issue fix-it tickets to anyone under the age of 18 found not wearing a helmet while on a bicycle, skateboard or roller skates. The violation is correctable if the minor completes a bicycle safety course and gets a helmet within 120 days of the ticket being issued.

Failure to correct the violation will result in a $197 fine.

Health Insurance: The Golden State pushed back against federal efforts to limit the Affordable Care Act last year. Senate Bill 910 will prohibit insurers from offering short-term health plans in California that cap benefits, deny patients with pre-existing conditions and exclude prescription drugs and coverage of mental health care. Senate Bill 1375, meanwhile, prevents employers from pooling coverage to offer association health plans that are exempt from many of the ACA’s requirements. Finally, Assembly Bill 2499 requires health plans in California to spend at least 80 percent of every premium dollar taken in on health care, limiting the amount companies can spend on administrative costs.

Cannabis: New laws will loosen restrictions on where people can smoke cannabis, allowing festivals, museums, nightclubs and other venues to host special events where folks can buy and consume cannabis. Under Assembly Bill 2215, veterinarians will be allowed to discuss cannabis and cannabis products with their clients, though they will still be prohibited from administering the stuff.

Finally, Assembly Bill 1793 puts the onus on the state to clean up the records of people with prior cannabis convictions. Under the new law, the state will comb through hundreds of thousands of past pot convictions to bring them in line with current law, which means, for example, that simple possession convictions will be thrown out while convictions for possession with intent to sell will be reduced from felonies to misdemeanors.

Surf’s Up: This one actually went into effect in August, when surfing became California’s official state sport, despite having originated in Hawaii. According to the Los Angeles Times, the bill “was the brainchild of the state Assembly’s unofficial Surf Caucus.”

t looks like the California cannabis industry will remain largely a cash enterprise for the foreseeable future.

The 18-member Cannabis Banking Working Group chaired by State Treasurer John Chiang issued a 151-page report detailing why creating a public banking system to accommodate the legal weed industry would be so expensive, difficult and legally iffy that it’s unfeasible.

Although cannabis is legal in two-thirds of the nation’s states, it remains federally illegal, classified as a Schedule 1 drug under the Controlled Substances Act. This means federally insured banks risk their licenses and — potentially — prosecution for money laundering and “aiding and abetting” a federal crime if they knowingly do business with the cannabis industry.

While there are some credit unions and local banks throughout the state that have been willing to take on the risk, the vast majority of California’s multi-billion-dollar industry is left to do business in cash and doesn’t have access to the types of financing typically available to small businesses in the state. Not only does this limit industry growth and effectively take large amounts of money out of circulation, but it also brings a host of risks, like robbery and theft, and challenges, like making payroll and paying vendors.

“It is not only unfair, but a public safety risk to require a legal industry to haul duffel bags of cash to pay taxes, employees and utility bills,” Chiang wrote in the report. “The reliance on cash has painted a target on the backs of cannabis operators.”

So the industry put a lot of hope in the public bank basket and responded enthusiastically when Chiang vowed to look into the possibility of a public California cannabis bank earlier this year.

The basic idea works like this: The state bank would take deposits from city and state tax revenues, giving it a firm capital base stretching well into the billions of dollars. It could then leverage those deposits by making loans to local public works improvements, small businesses and affordable housing projects, growing the initial capital while also spurring economic growth and community improvements.

With a steady stream of tax revenue, the

bank could also guarantee deposits from cannabis businesses and business owners without federally insuring them, theoretically sidestepping federal regulation and the risk of prosecutions or asset forfeitures.

That was the idea, anyway.

But the report from Chiang’s committee is blistering, saying such a bank would require a $1 billion investment of state funds and would need at least six years to get up and running. Further, the report warned that the bank would have a highrisk portfolio because it would serve only one industry — a fledgling one, at that — which could leave state taxpayers holding a very expensive bag in the case of a sharp economic downturn. Additionally, the report warned state employees involved in banking relationships with cannabis businesses would not be immune from federal prosecution and that federal banking regulators could step in and shutter such an effort.

The report also notes that public banks historically have not fared well, pointing out that 29 were formed in the United States between 1917 and 2017, only two of which have survived.

Chiang wrote that the report reinforces “the inconvenient reality that a definitive solution will remain elusive until the federal government takes action. They must either remove cannabis from its official list of banned narcotics or approve safe harbor legislation that protects banks serving cannabis businesses from prosecution.”

On its face, it seems there should be a lot of support for such safe-harbor legislation. After all, 84 percent of states have now legalized cannabis in some form, making banking a problem throughout the country. Plus, polls show a majority of Americans now oppose prohibition.

It warrants noting, however, that a majority of Americans also oppose the government shutdown, which affects every state in the union. Yet here we are. l Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@northcoastjournal.com.

Brown Commutes Sentences of Two Local Women Convicted of Murder

A

mong the 131 people who had their criminal sentences commuted by Gov. Jerry Brown on Christmas Eve was Dianna Mae Preston, a Trinidad woman who came to be known as the “vigilante granny” for chasing down and fatally shooting a Eureka man she wrongly believed had molested her granddaughter.

Brown set a record for pardons and commutations handed out during his term in office, with this latest round containing two other Humboldt County cases, including another murder.

With Brown’s action, Preston will become eligible to apply for release from prison. She had been sentenced to life without the possibility of parole after being found guilty of first degree murder, premeditated murder with the special allegation of lying in wait and using a firearm in commission of a felony in 2003.

“I have spent 15 years in prison and at 73 I am no longer the same person I was all those years ago,” Preston wrote in her application to the governor. “I know what I did was wrong, and nothing can truly compensate for the life I took. But I continue to try to make amends in the only was possible, which is living every day as a better person than I was then.”

Wearing a wig and sunglasses, Preston ambushed Kevin R. LaPorta outside his Eureka acupuncture business in July of 2002, shooting him several times as he reportedly begged for his life before reloading her weapon as he fled into a Chinese restaurant, where she followed him inside to fire the fatal shots, according to media reports at the time.

Just before the shooting, police had told Preston and her daughter that DNA evidence exonerated LaPorta of harming the 18-month-old girl, his biological daughter.

He was not married to the child’s mother — Preston’s daughter — and the two were reportedly having issues with visitation rights.

LaPorta, who was 47, was described as a dedicated father who had been planning to seek custody of his daughter, according to friends who spoke with the Journal after the fatal shooting.

The murder, which garnered national media attention, was the last Humboldt County case to be moved out of the area due to concerns about Preston’s ability to receive a fair trial. A Napa Valley jury found Preston was sane at the time of the killing after hearing testimony about how she told her daughter, “I’m glad I killed him. I’m glad he’s dead and not just shot” the day of the shooting.

Preston also reportedly told detectives that she knew she could face the death penalty.

The commutation declaration cites Preston’s lack of a criminal history prior to the shooting and her commitment to “self-improvement,” stating that she “dedicated herself to rehabilitation and has dug deep to address the issues that lead her to commit such a senseless crime.”

“For these reasons, I believe Ms. Preston has earned the opportunity to make her case to the Board of Parole Hearings so that it can determine wither she is suitable for parole,” Brown wrote.

She was not the only Humboldt County resident to receive clemency.

Landslide: An active landslide dumped rock, mud and a tree across State Route 299 between Helena and Junction City in Trinity County on Dec. 28, forcing the highway’s closure throughout the night. Caltrans crews worked through the night and the road opened to one-way, controlled traffic the following morning. As the Journal went to press Dec. 30, the road was opened in both directions.

Marcella Lunsford also had her 26-yearsto-life sentence commuted by Brown after serving nearly 15 years in prison for conspiring with her husband to kill their son-in-law, Nathan Gray Dannemiller, 26, who was in a custody dispute with their daughter.

Dannemiller was shot to death outside his Eureka apartment in August of 2002.

Almost exactly one year later, Lunsford, her husband and their son were arrested in Tennessee and extradited to face trial in Humboldt.

At her sentencing in 2006, Lunsford continue to maintain her innocence, telling Dannemiller’s father that she “can’t help what Douglas did” and was “sorry for your loss” but it wasn’t right for her to be punished, according to a Times-Standard story.

An attorney unsuccessfully lobbied for her to receive a new trial before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals in 2016.

The commutation of sentence noted Lunsford’s “positive attitude and behavior,”

Coasties Get Paid: The approximately 245 U.S. Coast Guard service members stationed in Humboldt County and their families got some good news Dec. 28 when they were informed they were to receive a paycheck Dec. 31 despite the government shutdown. However, service members were warned they won’t be paid as scheduled Jan. 15 unless the shutdown is lifted or another legislative solution is reached. POSTED 12.28.18

her participation in “multiple self-help programs” and successful work to receive a high school diploma.

Brown notes that he understands “that this crime was devastating to Mr. Dannemiller’s family, who have opposed clemency in this case” but “cannot discount the turnaround Ms. Lunsford has made during her incarceration.”

Lunsford, now 64, will also now be able to take her case to the parole board for possible release.

Brown also pardoned a man who had been convicted of burglary and robbery in Humboldt County, saying Michael David Crawford has lived an “honest and upright life” since his release from prison, which included earning a degree in electronic engineering and serving as a deacon in his church.

Verdict Before the Verdict: By now, you’ve probably read about the $4.7 billion verdict a Missouri jury awarded to 22 women who sued Johnson and Johnson, alleging asbestos in its Baby Powder caused their ovarian cancer. But you might not know that earlier this year a Humboldt County jury heard a similar case and found a local plaintiff was exposed to asbestos through the product but that she failed to prove it was a “substantial factor” in her cancer.

NORTH COAST NIGHT LIGHTS The skies of Humboldt County Story and photos by David Wilson newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

L

ong have I been fascinated by photographing light in the dark of night.

Other photographic interests come and go, but that one is always present, a constant pull on my imagination. If people go through phases in their art, I am definitely deep into a night phase.

A photograph is not merely an impression of light, it is a combination of light and time. We don’t always think about that as we snap our shutters in fractions of a second. Not much that we can see changes in a fraction of a second but when that element of time is extended to many seconds, a lot of things can happen and nothing will look as it does in a daytime image, nor will the final image look as the scene did to our eyes at the time. Playing with that element of time is one of the most exciting aspects of night photography.

When something catches my photographic eye, my mind inevitably begins thinking about how it might look at night and how I might make an interesting image under the night’s magical light. Light is unique at night, offering the potential to make striking and unusual photographs. I know that compelling photographic opportunities abound in the daytime, as well, for I see and appreciate daylight images all the time. But, for whatever reason, I need to go shoot at night, to play with long exposures, perhaps paint my own light into the scene or watch as the lights of passing vehicles add their own strokes of luminance.

Unfortunately, I seem to have a daily need for sleep, which proves inconvenient.

Still, I love both taking the photographs and working with them later, as any creative photographer might have done in the darkrooms of old and as I once did, only now we mostly use digital tools.

I will often begin planning long before I shoot. I study the subject, how it lies by the compass, so I can envision the night sky over it at various times of the year. When will the Milky Way rise perfectly over this spot? Will the moon be out and in what phase? Is it low or high tide? As the time approaches, I will also have to consider the weather forecast. When I do go out, I hope to have a good idea about what the scene will look like.

Even with all the planning, I’m small and the universe is large, and unplanned things will happen. The unexpected is never necessarily bad, though, and a surprise often makes the photograph better, while the image I’d planned is less satisfying. I’m thankful for those times, as they help me be a more patient light hunter, suffering through the outings thwarted by fog, overcast skies or some-

This snowy pre-dawn scene was just thing else. The unforeseen has so outside of Kneeland. at 5 a.m. on Feb. often made the images great that 21, 2018. I looked at my clock at 3:30 it more than makes up for the a.m. and felt so tired. But a voice inside other times. said to me, “If you don’t go out, you My exploration of light at night won’t bring anything back.” I replied, has opened my eyes to the stars “You always say that.” But I got up. in ways I hadn’t thought possible, merely because some things hadn’t occurred to me. It seems strange to think of it now, but throughout my life I have seen the Milky Way in the night skies — most of the time. Sometimes it wasn’t there. The odd thing is that it never occurred to me to wonder why. I do recall wondering where it was once or twice upon looking up into the starry night and not finding it, but I suppose I shrugged and forgot to pursue it.

Now, after years of watching the positions of the stars, and particularly the Milky Way, change day by day through the months and seasons as we circle the sun, I see that it is the very fact of Earth’s orbit around the sun and our tilt relative to our orbital plane, that accounts for our nighttime view changing as it does. Earth’s night side is presented with a slightly different view of the cosmos each day as we travel around the sun and as our view of the galaxy changes, the position of the Milky Way in our sky also shifts a little every night. Six months from now, when we are on the other side of the sun, Earth’s night side will face the opposite direction from what we see now; in a year we will again see the same night sky as tonight. The most spectacular part of the Milky Way, that area nearest the Galactic Core, is now entirely beneath the horizon after dark and for a while we will see less of the denser regions of it each night until we have again swung into position to view it.

closed with open forms that mutually generate a fun tension within the sculpture.

The piece, “Untitled (Black Cherry),” 2018, has at its base a solid, closed form that is seemingly heavy and industrial. Then, erupting out of the base, spring wildly expressive lines create a drawing in the space of the gallery. The line excites, draws your attention, relishes in its own sinew and color while activating the space it shares with the viewer.

Entering the gallery, visitors will periodically encounter a sound that may or may not be familiar to them, depending on their age. Funke has set up old school, 20th century 16-millimeter movie projectors to project extended film loops of found footage on the walls of the gallery. As with his strategy to encase found objects, he has culled the footage from the media waste stream, manipulated its content, concealing the original subject. The result is hypnotic patterns of geometric shapes and color dancing across the wall.

The projectors and film loops also hold

their own as sculptural objects. In order to make long running loops, the artist has rigged pulleys up toward the ceiling of the gallery and below the projector. The film runs through the projector, ascends toward the ceiling, down toward the floor and then back through the projector, the cycle of the film passing through the space of the gallery, echoing the swoops, curves, circles and arcs so prevalent in his surrounding static work. The percussion of the projectors’ gears, the small colorful frames flitting by and the dancing light invite the viewer to slow down and meditate on the pleasure of the senses. l Benjamin Funke’s exhibition Dazzle Shjips will run from Jan. 5 through Feb. 23 at the Black Faun Gallery (212 G St.) in Eureka. The gallery is open Thursday through Sunday.

Jack Bentley is a curator and artist who resides on California’s North Coast.

ven for fire-wary and -weary Californians like myself, it’s been hard to comprehend the destruction of the Camp Fire, the Nov. 8 wildfire that decimated the town of Paradise in Butte County.

That morning I was in Sebastopol, more than 100 miles from Paradise as the smoke flies. We woke up to clear skies. By about 10 a.m. we could see smoke flowing in from the east. My aunt, who had seen pages from books rain down in the ash from last year’s Santa Rosa fires, looked stricken. “Oh shit,” was all she said. The trauma of that fire is still raw in Sonoma County. She returned a few minutes later, having discovered online that the smoke we were seeing was from Butte County.

By noon, ash was falling in Sebastopol.

As I drove home to Humboldt, the sky over the Willits grade was apocalyptic, like climbing into Mordor. It seemed so near, so ominous, that people were pulling off the road to make sure they could pass through U.S. Highway 101.

That, of course, barely registers on the scale of horror that the people of Paradise experienced. As of Dec. 14, CalFire reports that 86 people died. Three firefighters were injured and nearly 14,000 homes burned. The 150,000 acre blaze — since fully contained — also claimed nearly 5,000 businesses and other buildings.

What does this have to do with beer?

Well, before the shock had settled in for many of us, the folks at Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., the Chico-based heavyweight craft brewer, announced it would release Resilience Butte County Proud IPA, with 100 percent of proceeds going to benefit

The Booth’s canned California Red Ale joins the army of breweries putting Resilience IPA on tap to benefit those affected by the Camp Fire.

Submitted

the survivors of the Camp Fire. In an open letter to the worldwide brewing community, Sierra Nevada asked for help. It asked suppliers to donate materials, asked other breweries to brew the recipe and asked distributors to donate their supply line.

“It was a big ask,” the company said in a press release, “and we never could have anticipated the response.”

With a speed and scale that rivaled the fire, more than 1,400 breweries signed onto Resilience. This massive effort, they predict, will yield 4.2 million pints. Supporting the cause, unsurprisingly, is Humboldt County. Six local breweries have signed on to produce Resilience IPA and it’s already available in tap rooms around the county.

For Tera Spohr, Mad River Brewing Co.’s Sales and Marketing Director, this effort had special significance. Her parents lost their home in the Camp Fire. “It will take time to heal, but right now people need a sense of normalcy to be able to begin that process,” she said. “We hope our contribu-

tion to this project helps to get people back on their feet and out of the cold, that’s my greatest hope for the people of the community I called home.”

Mad River Brewing Co.’s Resilience, based on the original recipe, is set to be available at the Blue Lake Tap Room (101 Taylor Way) starting Jan. 4. Check the brewery’s Facebook page for event details. (For licensing reasons, those using the recipe, name and logo for Resilience can only serve it in on tap. Growler fills are OK, though.)

Resilience IPA is already on tap at the Lost Coast Brewery tap room (1600 Sunset Drive, Eureka) and cafe (617 Fourth St., Eureka). Lost Coast also stuck to the original recipe and, although its launch event has already gone by, it’s offering $1 pints to people who have a Paradise address on their I.D. Eel River Brewing Company (1777 Alamar Way, Fortuna) and Six Rivers Brewery (1300 Central Ave., McKinleyville) are also pouring Resilience and expect to have it available for a few weeks.

Redwood Curtain Brewing Co. (550 S G St., Arcata and 1595 Myrtle Ave., Eureka) brewed its Resilience on Dec. 14 “with a twist,” according to a Facebook post. Folks at RCBC didn’t return a call by deadline but expect that one to be on tap soon.

And finally, The Booth Brewing Co. is also making a Resilience beer — but it’s doing it a little differently. Since The Booth doesn’t have a tap room yet, it has developed its own Resilience recipe — a red ale — and released it in cans. Decorated with the company’s familiar quirky art, the cans are available in Humboldt, the Bay Area, Merced and Fresno.

So raise a glass of Resilience this holiday with friends and family and help the community of Paradise recover.

Hibernation Breaks

By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

F Between 2nd & 3rd on “F” St. OLD TOWN, EUREKA 502 Henderson Street IN FRIENDLY HENDERSON CENTER

or all its vaunted pomp and first-tier-in-the-new-year position on the calendar, January is a pretty beige and uninspiring month here in the Northern Hemisphere. All through December it comes rushing up the stairs, hitting each landing on the way up like a tensioning string, only to knock forcefully on the protagonist’s door to deliver the seasonal equivalent of a traffic camera ticket. Thanks anyway.

Suffice it to say, I’m not feeling very inspired right now. This is a good week to take baths, make food and drinks spiced with enough cayenne and cinnamon to add color to our dreams, and to watch the skies as they make colors that call to mind the sounds of ice scraping against metal.

Hunker down, dear ones, because even humans must observe our polar rhythms and hibernate from time to time. But do make an effort to bundle up and trundle out when you can. You won’t regret it.

Thursday

Louiza is the stage name of Oakland singer/songwriter Rebecca Mimiaga.

Tonight at 10 p.m. her winter tour stops at The Jam, where she will perform with her quartet in anaticipation of Louiza’s upcoming album Swim at Night, set for self-release in April ($5). The music is pinioned between the traffic lights of indie pop rock and alt-folk and the songs are good. Two very excellent companions for the night are local acts Dead Bird Son and Blood Hunny, who fill out the bill as comrades, not mere support.

Friday The hush of winter in Humboldt doesn’t manifest itself in heavy blankets of snow but our nightlife still hibernates accordingly. So here are two low-impact freebies for your Friday night’s pleasure.

Local rock and blues trio Triple Tones plays the Fieldbrook Eatery and Market at 7:30 p.m. When I was a kid growing up in Dows Prairie, I knew a few timberland trails that allowed me to ride my bike through Fieldbrook and on to Blue Lake, Korbel and beyond with very few pavement interruptions. I don’t suggest that you go sounding about for those likely vanished routes this evening but I do suggest that you head over to the Logger Bar at 9 p.m. for a dance set by DJ FuNK. It can’t hurt and it might even sting in a good way.

Saturday

Sansfü is a group composed of members of the venerable and versatile jam avatar-act Absynth Quartet, specializing in the “Gypsy jazz” swing section of musical influences.

Sunday It’s another award-winning night of karaoke over at the Miniplex tonight starting at 9 p.m.

Enjoy a seasonal cocktail or five from Louiza plays The Jam on Thursday, Jan. 3 at 10 p.m.

Photo by Matt Mimiaga, courtesy of the artist the bar at Richards’ Goat and sign up for free to be a local ness from the contemporary American hero on the mic-for-hire circuit of your songbook. Check him out tonight at the dreams.

Arcata Playhouse. 8 p.m. ($20).

Monday E-TV is a comedy show put on by local stand-up comic Evan Vest where he curates a selection of internet videos for local comics to riff off. Will we see a panel made up of the likes of William Trousers, Bartholomew Pantyhose and Sibyll Ascot cracking wise at neo-Vine culture? Come over to Savage Henry Comedy Club tonight at 9 p.m. and cough up $5 to find out what hilarity lies in the hypertext transfer protocol codex of contemporary human experience.

Tuesday Wisconsin-born singer/songwriter Jeffrey Foucault has a sound that harkens back to a less divisive time in the acoustic and roots music world, when people like Lyle Lovett, Nanci Griffith and Dwight Yoakam bled between the fabric of American music and culture to make great and gentle art. Touring on the heels of his latest release Blood Brothers, Foucault is well-positioned to pass a blacklight over the forensic evidence of folkloric great-

Wednesday

BoomBox is an electronic act that plays an organic mix of blues and house music with an ear to rhythm and dance music.

Founder Zion Rock Godchaux — the son of Grateful Dead singer Donna Godchaux — writes the tunes and sets the scene and has done so for nearly 20 years. Tonight his group plays Humbrews at 9 p.m. ($20).

Expect the glorious sounds that one might muster from the FM radio waves from decades past filtered through an interstellar breakbeat engine. 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.

Collin Yeo is reading Tolstoy in the winter, which is quite a bit like playing “Bloody Mary” if the aim is to conjure the physical manifestation of seasonal depression in the bathroom mirror. He lives in Arcata.

Tuesdays in the Library with Sturges

The Palm Beach Story

In life, writer/director/actor Preston Sturges was an interesting man, to say the least. A not-so-successful inventor in his early years (although he did invent a “kissproof” lipstick for his mother’s cosmetic company) and a playwright who enjoyed some success, he eventually made his way to Hollywood and screenwriting, where he found great success. The films that bear his directorial credit are also distinctive — marked by memorable characters, madcap situations and brilliant social and political commentary — no doubt influenced by the colorful life he led. If you like rom coms that gallop along with snappy dialogue and plenty of absurdity, Preston’s your man. Don’t try to follow plotlines too closely. Suspend your disbelief and enjoy the wild and witty ride this January as the Humboldt County Library’s Based of the Book Movie Series presents four classic Preston Sturges comedies on Tuesdays at 6:30 p.m. (free).

On tap first is the The Miracle of Morgan’s Creek (1943) on Jan. 8. Tame by today’s standards but controversial at the time, this film finds party girl Trudy married and pregnant — with no recollection of how either went down — after a soldier send-off party. Good intentions and hilarity ensue.

Hosted by Jan Ostrom.

Next up is The Palm Beach Story (1942) on Jan. 15, 6:30 p.m. It’s a screwball romantic comedy about a married couple on the outs over finances. Wife decides help hubby’s hobbies by divorcing him and marrying a millionaire for his money. Hosted by Journal arts and features editor Jennifer Fumiko Cahill (herself, a screwball romantic comedy).

Then comes The Great McGinty (1940) on Jan. 22. This satire of political corruption landed Sturges a Best Writing, Original Screenplay Oscar and established him as one of the first writer/directors in film, setting him on course to write/direct seven highly successful films in the 1940s. Hosted by Bob Doran.

Finally, catch Hail the Conquering Hero (1944) on Jan. 29. Small-town boy leaves for the Marines and comes back a “hero,” when in reality he was kicked out of boot camp. Sentimental and funny, this is considered one of Sturges’ finest. Hosted by Journal contributor Gabrielle Gopinath.

Reviews First, a few words on Welcome to Marwen, which I have not seen and do not intend to. When trailers began to appear months ago, touting it as the most original movie of the year (I’m paraphrasing), I was decidedly non-plussed. And so when the forecasts came in estimating a 50-60 million dollar box office loss for the thing, I took it as heartening news. Not that I wish any misfortune befall Robert Zemeckis — my relationship to his work might best be described as complicated — but on balance I admire him as a creative, hard-working commercial artist. And I certainly wouldn’t want the movie’s failure to negatively impact the careers of perennial favorites like Janelle Monáe, Leslie Mann or even Steve Carell (who I tend to like in spite of his frequently baffling role selections). However, I admire the failure of Welcome to Marwen because it is an affront to my sensibilities. See, the movie is based on true events. Furthermore, those events are painstakingly, heartbreakingly described in a feature-length documentary called Marwencol (2010) by director Jeff Malmberg, who also edited this year’s Won’t You Be My Neighbor? It seems demeaning and diminishing to the significant accomplishments of that movie, as well as to those of Mark Hogancamp, whose story it tells, to rehash it as an addle-pated cartoon hybrid, with Carell apparently

26 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 3, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

unable to decide whether he’s acting in a comedy or a drama (again, I’ve gleaned this only from the trailer, to be fair). Marwencol is very much worth seeking out and hopefully the failure of Welcome to Marwen will bring it some more well-deserved attention. And maybe somebody in charge of green-lighting things will learn a lesson, though for this I have less hope.

VICE. I looked forward to this for many months and more pointedly in last week’s column, as potentially one of the best and most important movies of the year; it does not disappoint. That being said, Adam McKay’s latest also continually reminds us of the odious, suppurating nature of contemporary American politics so, despite its brisk pacing and occasionally whimsical narrative style, it is certainly not for the faint of heart.

Vice offers a comprehensive, sometimes frustratingly balanced portrait of former Vice President Dick Cheney from the vomitory flameouts of his college days, through his multiple-DUI tenure as a Wyoming lineman and on to his entry into the halls of power, wherein he found a calling and the eventual catastrophic fulfillment of his hideous inmost impulses.

As in The Big Short (2015), McKay deploys many of the sharper instruments in his comic toolkit to draw us into a thoughtful, innovative exegesis on contemporary American issues. The movie,

though occasionally shot to look like horror, is edited with much of the bounce of his more straight-ahead comedies (Step Brothers, 2008, for one). And the performances, led by an almost unrecognizable Christian Bale, work a subtle line between impersonation and parody. All this in service of a story so grotesque, so troubling in its actuality that most of us would rather it were a work of fiction. But, as seems to be more and more frequently the case, reality is much stranger and far more troubling than fiction. Cheney used his mulish determination, venality, access and, admittedly, his formidable cunning to destabilize American politics at the highest level. He acted in the shadows to centralize power in the executive branch and, from his shadowy lair therein, orchestrated power grabs, international conflicts, blatant nepotism and the wholesale purchase of American democracy through dirty back-channel whoring.

He’s the worst. But he is also a real person and therein lies perhaps the most frustrating and significant element of Vice.

Bale’s Cheney is real, full-blooded and multi-faceted; he’s the personification of a specific type of American evil but he also loves his wife and kids. To misquote someone wiser than I, no villain thinks he is a villain. Truer words were never spoken concerning the dastardly “protagonist” of this piece.

Some will take issue with some of the stylistic turns here but to me it plays a complete and complex synthesis of style and information. There are sour notes within it but not a one of them out of place. R. 132M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK. BIRD BOX. There is much ado about this one, it having streamed to over 45 million users already. It may mark a major transitional moment for Netflix. Despite its strengths, I suspect that may be its only triumph.

The narrative shuttles between the onset of a global crisis (the arrival of creatures, the mere sight of which drives people to suicide, in their droves) and five years into the future created by it. Mallory Hayes (Sandra Bullock), pregnant in one thread, caring for two small children in the other, finds shelter with a small group of survivors that is eventually winnowed away until she and the children make their way blindfolded down a cold and winding river (filmed in Del Norte County, no less) toward hoped-for safety.

It’s a clever premise (adapted by Eric Heisserer from the novel by Josh Malerman) and that in itself creates a problem, in that this is a rare dystopian future story neither about nor targeted at young adults. It’s a bleak, occasionally grisly take on the genre but it never quite marries tone with narrative. It has its effective moments and the performances are strong across the board but it seems to reach for something it can’t quite get. R. 124M. NETFLIX.

eems we’re hearing a lot about aliens these days. They’re humans supposedly swarming over the border, snails invading our lakes, plants taking over the dunes. Even cancer cells, those utterly homegrown products of their hosts, are deemed “alien.” The word itself derives from its Proto-Indo-European root *al- (1) = “beyond” via Latin alienus “of or belonging to another, not one’s own, foreign, strange.”

Ask a biologist what alien means, though, and you’ll be directed to a “tree of life” like the one shown here, on which every living entity on Earth, past or present, can be found, all sharing the same DNA, RNA and 20 amino acids. (Viruses, which cannot replicate or evolve, are usually disqualified from the definition of “life.”) Take a look at the accompanying diagram — accepted by most biologists — to see how we’re all related. You and I and jellyfish and algae are all one big happy family, cousins with a common ancestor.

But that’s just here on Earth. What about other planets? What would we expect to find there? Until recently, scientists thought that finding life on Mars, living or dead, would be good evidence that life is common in the universe, invoking the late Isaac Asimov’s “zero-one-infinity” rule. He was talking about gods in his 1972 science fiction novel The Gods Themselves — there might be no gods, there might be one God or there might be an infinity of gods (every tree and mountain was a deity, according to ancient Greeks). But the idea of just two gods or half a god was absurd. By this reasoning, finding life on Mars that doesn’t fit on our tree of life would suggest, not just two life forms, but of an infinity of them.

To be clear, no one expects that we’ll find anything living on the surface of Mars, thanks to the sun’s molecule-bashing ultraviolet rays. But maybe some 3.5 billion years ago, while Mars still had a thick protective

atmosphere, a magnetic field and liquid water, bacterial life thrived there, as it did then on Earth. Maybe — a big maybe — bacteria are still around just under the surface, eking out an existence on the warm flanks of Olympus Mons, perhaps. And even if microbial life died out a million years ago, we might still be able to tease out its biochemistry from fossils.

Unfortunately for those of us hoping that we find evidence for a “second Genesis” on Mars, it’s starting to look more and more probable that any life there, past or present, would fit on the Earthly tree of life. That’s because we’re finding how comparatively easily life can migrate across space from one body to another inside meteorites. (Remember the excitement in 1996 when scientists claimed to have found evidence — since discredited — for microscopic fossils of bacteria in a 4-billion-year-old meteorite that came from Mars?) Chances are, if there is or was any life on Mars, it originated on Earth. Or, more likely, the other way around because meteorites normally spiral in toward the sun, so it would be easier to get from Mars to Earth than from Earth to Mars.

To sum up: Really pessimistically, we won’t find any evidence for life elsewhere in our solar system. Somewhat pessimistically (but still awesome), we’ll find life but it will be “our” life: same DNA, etc. The optimistic view, though, is that we’ll find evidence of some completely unrelated form of biochemistry on Mars (or Europa or Titan or Enceladus). Optimistic because the existence of two examples of life right here in our solar system almost certainly means it can arise easily. By the zero-one-infinity rule, life will be all over the universe. ● Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) can’t believe that here in the colonies Brits are classified as “aliens.”

Free Will Astrology Week of Jan. 3, 2019

By Rob Brezsny

Homework: I’d love to see your top New Year’s resolutions. Share by going to RealAstrology.com and clicking on “Email Rob.”

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com ARIES (March 21-April 19): No one has resisted the force of gravity with more focus than businessman Roger Babson (1875–1967). He wrote an essay entitled “Gravity — Our Enemy Number One,” and sought to develop anti-gravity technology.

His Gravity Research Foundation gave awards to scientists who advanced the understanding of gravity. If that organization still existed and offered prizes, I’m sure that researchers of the Aries persuasion would win them all in 2019. For your tribe, the coming months should feature lots of escapes from heaviness, including soaring flights and playful levity and lofty epiphanies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The night parrots of Australia are so elusive that there was a nearly six-decade stretch when no human saw a single member of the species. But in 2013, after searching for 15 years, photographer John Young spotted one and recorded a 17-second video. Since then, more sightings have occurred. According to my astrological vision, your life in 2019 will feature experiences akin to the story of the night parrot’s reappearance. A major riddle will be at least partially solved. Hidden beauty will materialize. Long-secret phenomena will no longer be secret. A missing link will re-emerge.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Millions of years ago, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica and North and South America were smooshed together. Earth had a single land mass, the supercontinent Pangea. Stretching across its breadth was a colossal feature, the Central Pangean Mountains. Eventually, though, Europe and America split apart, making room for the Atlantic Ocean and dividing the Central Pangean range. Today the Scottish Highlands and the Appalachian Mountains are thousands of miles apart but once upon a time they were joined. In 2019, Gemini, I propose that you look for metaphorical equivalents in your own life. What disparate parts of your world had the same origin? What elements that are now divided used to be together? Re-establish their connection. Get them back in touch with each other. Be a specialist in cultivating unity.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): 2019 will be an excellent time to swim in unpolluted rivers, utter sacred oaths near beautiful fountains and enjoy leisurely saunas that help purify your mind and body. You are also likely to attract cosmic favor if you cry more than usual, seek experiences that enhance your emotional intelligence and ensure that your head respectfully consults with your heart before making decisions. Here’s another way to get on life’s good side: cultivate duties that consistently encourage you to act out of love and joy rather than out of guilt and obligation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Here are four key questions I hope you’ll meditate on throughout 2019: 1. What is love? 2. What kind of love do you want to receive? 3. What kind of love do you want to give? 4. How could you transform yourself in order to give and receive more of the love you value most? To spur your efforts, I offer you these thoughts from teacher David R. Hawkins: “Love is misunderstood to be an emotion; actually, it is a state of awareness, a way of being in the world, a way of seeing oneself and others.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Most living things begin in the absence of light,” writes Virgo author Nancy Holder. “The vine is rooted in the earth; the fawn takes form in the womb of the doe.” I’ll remind you that your original gestation also took place in the dark. And I foresee a metaphorically comparable process unfolding for you in 2019. You’ll undergo an incubation period that may feel cloaked and mysterious. That’s just as it should be: the best possible circumstances for the vital new part of your life that will be growing. So be patient. You’ll see the tangible results in 2020.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Many plants that Americans regard as weeds are regarded as tasty food by Indigenous people. A prime example is the cattail, which grows wild in wetlands.

Indigenous people ate the rootstock, stem, leaves, and flower spike. I propose that we use this scenario to serve as a metaphor for some of your potential opportunities in 2019.

Things you’ve regarded as useless or irrelevant or inconvenient could be revealed as assets. Be alert for the possibility of such shifts. Here’s advice from Ralph Waldo Emerson: “What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The slow, gradual, incremental approach will be your magic strategy in 2019. Being persistent and thorough as you take one step at a time will provide you with the power to accomplish wonders. Now and then, you may be tempted to seek dramatic breakthroughs or flashy leaps of faith; and there may indeed be one or two such events mixed in with your steady rhythms. But for the most part, your glory will come through tenacity. Now study this advice from mystic Meister Eckhart: “Wisdom consists in doing the next thing you have to do, doing it with your whole heart, and finding delight in doing it.”

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian polymath Piet Hein wrote a poem in which he named the central riddle of his existence. “A bit beyond perception’s reach, / I sometimes believe I see / That life is two locked boxes / Each containing the other’s key.” I propose that we adopt this scenario to symbolize one of the central riddles of your existence. I’ll go further and speculate that in 2019 one of those boxes will open as if through a magical fluke, without a need for the key.

This mysterious blessing won’t really be a magical fluke, but rather a stroke of well-deserved and hard-earned luck that is the result of the work you’ve been doing to transform and improve yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): What themes and instruments do people least want to hear in a piece of music? Composer Dave Solder determined that the worst song ever made would contain bagpipes, cowboy music, tubas, advertising jingles, operatic rapping and children crooning about holidays. Then he collaborated with other musicians to record such a song. I suspect that as you head into 2019, it’ll be helpful to imagine a metaphorically comparable monstrosity: a fantastic mess that sums up all the influences you’d like to avoid. With that as a vivid symbol, you’ll hopefully be inspired to avoid allowing any of it to sneak into your life in the coming months.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In Canada, it’s illegal to pretend to practice witchcraft. It’s fine to actually do witchcraft, however.

With that as our inspiration, I advise you to be rigorous about embodying your authentic self in 2019. Make sure you never lapse into merely imitating who you are or who you used to be.

Don’t fall into the trap of caring more about your image than about your actual output. Focus on standing up for what you really mean rather than what you imagine people expect from you. The coming months will be a time when you can summon pure and authoritative expressions of your kaleidoscopic soul.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the eighteenth century, Benjamin Franklin was a Founding Father who played a key role in getting the United States up and running. He wasn’t happy that the fledgling nation chose the bald eagle as its animal symbol.

The supposedly majestic raptor is lazy, he wrote. It doesn’t hunt for its own food but steals grub obtained by smaller birds of prey. Furthermore, bald eagles are cowardly, Franklin believed. Even sparrows may intimidate them. With that as our theme, Pisces, I invite you to select a proper creature to be your symbolic ally in 2019. Since you will be building a new system and establishing a fresh power base, you shouldn’t pick a critter that’s merely glamorous. Choose one that excites your ambition and animates your willpower. ●
