Editor: I’m grateful to the Journal for running the various stories about why people chose to get the COVID-19 vaccine (“Vaccine Stories,” July 15), and especially for the two essays by Journal staffers (“Across Miles and Borders”). I am far less able to see the “fine people on both sides” (“Across Dueling Realities”).

Exactly as was the case with the 2016 election and support of donald trump (sic), and the 2020 election of President Biden, I believe one’s sentiments towards masks and vaccination come down to a choice of who one will believe — whose “team” one “signs up” with. And I think this is, fundamentally, a moral choice we are each making.

There is plenty wrong with our society, both in America and throughout the “Western world.” I’m not going to list my complaints, because anyone who has opened their eyes, even for a split-second, has to be aware of the problems. I firmly believe each and every one of us has the power to do good and do bad, and that we have personal responsibility for our actions. Many of us are still brought up with a belief in an omniscient and omnipotent deity. I understand how unshakeable a belief instilled in a child by their parents, grandparents, friends and neighbors can be.

Still. For the last few hundred years, science has produced an awe-inspiring set of personally-verifiable explanations for many of the things that were once mysteries attributable only to the whims of one or more gods. Organized religion, since Galileo, has been a home for those who are too lazy or fearful to take responsibility for being a moral adult, deciding for ones’ self what is proper. They’d rather listen to someone who pretends to have a hotline to God, and I doubt any good can come from such people.

That, I think, is why so many now assert that they are “spiritual but not religious.”

They are seeking a way to reserve space for the truly remarkable mysteries that remain without finding themselves sucked into the foolishness spread by right wing authoritarians in many religious hierarchies. Knowing there are mysteries is a vitally different thing than believing they are explained by some charlatan’s interpretation of some ancient text. It is the difference between humility and narcissism. Knowing that mysteries remain does not in any way delegitimize the actual knowledge we have gained. Vaccines work.

CO2 traps heat. A planet is not infinite.

Viruses mutate if they are not prevented from spreading.

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

Terry Torgerson

Too many of us still listen to the right-wing authoritarians speaking, they claim, in the name of God. You may not believe this, but it’s obvious trump (sic) thinks it’s the case. Why else would he have the military clear a path for him to walk to a church signboard for a photo-op with a bible?

To make the decision to ignore science — perhaps because of the misuse to which its resulting discoveries are often subject — in favor of “woo” is to have made a morally-significant choice as an adult. I cannot accept that responsible adults will refuse to participate in a public health campaign because they have sided with something indescribable and incomprehensible, and it makes me sick to my stomach to see how our society bends over backwards to “understand” them. Understand them? Easy. Understanding is not agreement.

‘A Pandemic of the Unvaccinated’ A variant-fueled surge brings renewed urgency to vaccine push

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

M

irroring a statewide trend, Humboldt County’s COVID-19 case counts are lurching upward, fueled almost entirely by the new Delta variant’s circulation in unvaccinated populations a month after the state lifted almost all of the restrictions aimed at curbing the virus’ spread.

Statewide, California recorded a daily average of six new confirmed COVID-19 cases per 100,000 residents over the seven-day period before the Journal went to press July 20, nearly triple the daily averages from early June. And the percentage of COVID-19 testing samples that came back positive for the virus had similarly jumped to 4.1 percent, the state’s highest rate since February.

The numbers in Humboldt County, meanwhile, are even worse, with a daily average of nearly 11 new confirmed COVID-19 cases per 100,000 residents over the same period and a test-positivity rate of 10.5 percent. As of July 20, the county’s test-positivity rate for the month sat at 8.6 percent — the second-highest of any month locally since the pandemic’s start, trailing only the post-holiday surge in Janu-

ary, when it topped out at 9.9 percent.

On July 20, Public Health reported that since July 12, it had confirmed 122 new cases of COVID 19, as well as six new hospitalizations — including two of residents in their 40s — and two deaths.

And with various aspects of local life continuing to open up — from indoor concerts to a week of sometimes crowded rodeo festivities in Fortuna — there’s little reason to believe infection rates will slow absent new restrictions or a significant uptick in vaccination rates.

In recent weeks, local officials have been warning that residents age 19 and younger are increasingly accounting for case spread locally amid an upwelling in cases of the Delta variant, which was identified in 25 percent of local samples that underwent genomic sequencing last month. (Since the pandemic began, 13 Humboldt County residents age 29 and younger have been hospitalized with the disease, including two under the age of 19.)

Nationally, the Delta variant now accounts for 83 percent of cases that have undergone genomic sequencing, according to Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Director Rochelle Walensky,

a dramatic increase from the 50 percent it accounted for at the beginning of this month.

Health officials have repeatedly warned the new variant is both more transmissible and more likely to cause critical illness than other mutations of COVID-19.

“We should think about the Delta variant as the 2020 version of COVID-19 on steroids,” Andy Slavitt, a former senior advisor to the White House’s COVID response team, recently told CNN. “It’s twice as infectious. Fortunately, unlike 2020, we actually have a tool that stops the Delta variant in its tracks: It’s called vaccine.”

And while there is mounting evidence vaccines are less effective against the Delta variant than others — a recent study in Israel found the Pfizer/BionTech vaccine to be 64 percent effective against infection and 93 percent effective in preventing severe disease and hospitalizations — socalled “breakthrough” cases infecting fully vaccinated individuals remain rare.

Walensky said during a July 16 press briefing that more than 97 percent of the nearly 25,000 people hospitalized in the U.S. were unvaccinated, with U.S. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy adding that 99.5

percent of recent COVID-19 deaths were of unvaccinated people.

In Humboldt County, Public Health reported July 20 that two of the county’s 222 hospitalizations and none of the county’s 53 COVID-related deaths have been fully vaccinated people.

“This is becoming a pandemic of the unvaccinated,” Walensky said.

But while the vaccines appear very effective in preventing severe illness and death, questions still remain as to just how effective they are in preventing asymptomatic infections. A recent spate of high-profile infections in fully vaccinated individuals — including a cluster of New York Yankees, some Olympic athletes and political staffers in Washington, D.C. — have raised doubt about vaccines’ effectiveness.

Infectious disease experts, meanwhile, have noted that the high profile cases have been found in people who are tested with extreme regularity through their work, indicating that asymptomatic infection of fully vaccinated people may be more common than initially thought.

But they are quick to note the vaccines remain extremely effective in preventing severe illness, even amid the surge in Delta variant cases.

But between the high-profile breakthrough cases and a political climate that has seen Republican officials and conservative pundits loudly and repeatedly minimize the effectiveness of the vaccines and the risks of infection, vaccination rates have plateaued nationally, statewide and locally.

According to the county’s dashboard,

54.67 percent of the population was at least partially vaccinated as the Journal went to press July 20, an increase of just 0.44 percent over the prior week. Nearly 49 percent of local residents were fully vaccinated.

California’s surging numbers have officials once again contemplating imposing restrictions designed to mitigate the virus’ spread. Los Angeles County — home to a quarter of the state’s population — recently re-imposed a mask order for all indoor public spaces. Seven Bay Area counties quickly issued recommendations that everyone wear masks, regardless of vaccination status, and on July 19, Monterey, Napa, San Benito and Santa Cruz counties followed suit. But there has been widespread pushback to the prospect of requiring vaccinated people to once again mask up, primarily in an effort to protect their unvaccinated neighbors, making health officials reticent to re-impose the mandates.

In a July 19 press conference, Gov. Gavin Newsom sidestepped a question about imposing another statewide mask mandate and instead took the opportunity to push vaccination.

“If we want to end this pandemic once and for all, if we want to turn the page, we can get it done in a matter of weeks, not months,” he said. “It’s as simple as this: If you’re not vaccinated, get vaccinated.” l Thadeus Greenson (he/him) is the news editor at the Journal.

Summer Fun for Kids

Creative activities to do together at home

By Lindsay Kessner

views@northcoastjournal.com

S

ummer’s finally here, school’s out and kids are at home ... again. The days are now as long as they’re going to get and all that evening light is exciting, especially with restaurants and events opening up. But maybe after more than a year of staying in, summer vacation isn’t quite the novelty it might otherwise be. For parents and caregivers of children who are finding it hard to fill the hours and keep the extended days from becoming just plain long, here are some fresh ways to keep kids engaged in meaningful activity at home.

The most seamless way to snap kids out of that familiar restless state is to include them in household activities. This is particularly true for younger children. When you turn dinner prep, bath time, and cleaning into family time, children gain confidence and learn responsibility. It may take a little effort on your part in the beginning if your kids are not accustomed to helping, but it’s worth it to persist through their resistance and endure any whining that may come with it. Yes, chores may take a little longer with a 6 year old cutting the carrots or a 4 year old folding the socks, but it beats having to pause every few minutes to break up a quarrel in the other room or answer the cry of “I’m so bored!” This doing-it-together strategy can also take some of the drudgery out of day-to-day drudgery for you as well.

The key points to getting kids involved are making the actions accessible and doing them with an enthusiastic attitude.

It’s normal for parents to underestimate the physical and intellectual capacities of their kids, while over-estimating their

attention spans. You can easily remedy this by making projects physically accessible and breaking them into small actions. Your preschoolers are able to measure and mix and crack eggs as long as you provide a chair to stand on at the counter and hand them the right utensil. They can collect all the ingredients from the refrigerator and load and unload the dishwasher if you designate a specific location within their reach for them to put each item. To work with your kids’ necessarily (and perhaps frustratingly) short attention spans, break up all actions into small steps and only tell them one step at a time. After every single shoe is put away from the area around the front door, instruct them about sweeping.

“Cleaning the living room” is too broad and takes too long. “Putting away the shoes” is manageable and appropriately brief.

Kids are heavily influenced by your tone.

If you rush through the evening bath as tedium, bathing will be an annoyance for them. It doesn’t have to be that way. You can make any daily routine an opportunity to connect and learn, and your children will find it fun. At least part of the time. Try turning duties into a game. Freeze CleanUp is a classic: Pick an upbeat song and tell your little ones to put the toys away as fast as they possibly can, but only until the music stops. Then they have to freeze! Unless you have a big brood of young ones, you will probably have to play the game, too, in order to really sell it. But just watch as the bedroom carpet becomes visible once again, with giggles to boot.

With the endless outdoor possibilities here in the North Coast summertime, there are easily as many opportunities for

kids to participate in the wonder of nature.

A little bit of structure added to time in the backyard, at the park or on the beach can make all the difference in keeping children occupied and curious. Try a rock scavenger hunt. Make a list of rock characteristics: smooth, rough, layered, sparkly, spotted, dark, light, smaller than the tip of your pinky finger, etc. One characteristic at a time, invite school-age kids to find a specific kind of rock, then compare. Take a notebook and some markers outside to encourage observation. Pick a favorite rock to draw. Have your kids find and draw three different leaves (reminding them, of course, to not touch if you’re in a spot with poison oak or stinging nettle), three different trees or three different things they think are cool. Build a fort out of blankets, cardboard boxes, driftwood, camping chairs or whatever is on-hand.

When the fog rolls out and there are some puffy clouds in the sky, ask them what they see in the shapes.

For arty and imaginative kids, bringing a notebook and a few common art supplies outside can go even further. Have your tiny artists tear up a couple of paper towels and glue them onto a piece of colored paper. Now they can talk or write about what they see in their art-clouds.

body of water, ask your children what they think is underneath. Depending on their — and your — inclinations, you can let the conversation go in a scientific or totally wild direction. Suggest they draw a picture of what’s going on under there. Kids 5 and older can even write a story. Asking questions is a great way to extend the activity beyond a few quick sketches. If your child says a family of skateboarding giraffes lives under the sea, ask what sort of ramp system the giraffes use to keep the sand out of their wheels. If your budding investigator tells you about seaweed and real-life creatures, the door is open to search the beach for evidence of actual underwater life. Have them look for and draw different kinds of shells and consider what animals once lived in or made them.

These are just a few ways to transform long summer days into fun, creative experiences for your whole family. The options are infinite. After trying out some of the ideas here, apply the basic principles to whatever you like — or have to — do in your everyday life and you can make the absolute most of this sweet summer vacation. l Lindsay Kessner (she/her) is a longtime nanny, teacher, artist, cat-lover and owner of Treehouse Parent Coaching.

Yurok Tribe: ‘No Justice’ In OxyContin Settlement

T

he Yurok Tribal Council voted unanimously last week to oppose the proposed bankruptcy settlement agreement and restructuring plan for OxyContin manufacturer Purdue Pharma, saying it amounts to a “sweetheart settlement” for the billionaire Sackler family, which owns the pharmaceutical giant.

“There is no justice in this settlement,” Tribal Chair Joseph James said in a press release. “The Yurok Tribe is incredibly disappointed with the agreement because it does not hold Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family accountable for the damage they have caused in our community and across the continent. Everything about the ability of this family to escape consequences and responsibility for premeditated actions offends the world view of the Yurok people.”

The tribe joined approximately 3,000 other tribes, cities, counties and states in suing the company, alleging it downplayed the highly addictive nature of the opioid painkiller while continuing to market it aggressively, creating an addiction crisis linked to nearly 500,000 deaths across the country over the last 20 years, according to the Associated Press.

The company filed for bankruptcy

protections in the face of the lawsuits and struck a settlement agreement recently through a court-appointed mediation. The agreement has Sackler family members pledging to contribute a total of about $4.5 billion in cash and charitable holdings toward the settlement, with the money going to fund drug treatment and prevention efforts. Under the terms of the proposed settlement, the company would also make millions of internal documents public and give up all business interests related to opioid manufacturing.

But critics argue the proposed agreement does not go far enough, as it would leave billions of dollars in assets in the Sackler family’s hands while shielding it from further legal liability. Further, they argue it does not make the family admit wrongdoing or apologize for its conduct.

With several weeks still remaining before a hearing on whether the bankruptcy court should accept the settlement proposal, 10 plaintiff states and the District of Columbia have still not signed onto the agreement, though attorneys for Purdue have pledged to work to build “further consensus.”

It seems it would have a long way to go still to win the approval of the Yurok Tribe, which filed a federal lawsuit in 2018 against

The fair on Sunday, June 13, brought families from around the county for a chance to get vaccinated against COVID-19.

M

ore than most, Loleta resident Yohana Castillo, 36, has experienced unexpected and tremendous loss due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In the past eight months, she has lost four people. First her cousin, Esteban Gonzalez, of Esteban’s Mexican restaurant in Arcata, died of complications from the disease.

Then another cousin, followed by a distant family member in Mexico City and, finally, her neighbor.

Seeing the effects the virus had on her family and wanting to protect their 4-year-old son and 10-year-old daughter, Castillo and her husband decided to get vaccinated.

“Now that I’m vaccinated, I feel safer going out, seeing my family,” she told the Journal in Spanish.

Since receiving her vaccination, Castillo has been on a quest to help as many people in her community get vaccinated

by making sure they understand what the protection can do. She was able to help the rest of her family get their vaccines.

“I don’t want anyone to go through what I went through,” she said. “I want everyone to have the opportunity to feel safe the way I feel safe.”

Castillo likes to be involved in her daughter’s school activities and met True North Organizing Network Organizing Director Julia Lerma through a virtual event.

They began talking about their lives and Castillo’s recent losses when Lerma told her about True North’s planned efforts to help the county’s Latinx population get vaccinated. Castillo jumped on board and quickly became a volunteer organizer for the Eureka-based nonprofit.

Humboldt’s Latinx population is still lagging behind in vaccination rates despite seeing disproportionate rates of infection. As of July 15, about 45 percent of Humboldt County’s Latinx population had

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

received at least one dose of the vaccine compared to about 50 percent of the county’s non-Hispanic/Latinx population. Meanwhile, residents identifying as Hispanic and Latinx continue to make up 23 percent of the county’s positive COVID cases despite making up only 12 percent of the county’s population. Statewide, roughly 43 percent of the Latinx population has received at least one dose of the vaccine compared to 53 percent of the population overall, while Latinx residents account for 56 percent of COVID-19 cases despite making up 39 percent of the population, according to the California Department of Public Health.

Local efforts to reach the Latinx community with COVID-19 safety and vaccination information have been challenging, as has been the case statewide and nationally. Many Hispanic and Latinx Humboldt County residents have reported finding it challenging to find accurate information in

Spanish, though public health has staffed its COVID-19 information line with Spanish speakers and has translated COVID information and social media posts hoping to reach non-English speakers.

There are a variety of reasons vaccine hesitancy may be more pervasive in the Hispanic and Latinx population than other demographics.

“Compared to White adults, larger shares of unvaccinated Hispanic adults say they are concerned about missing work due to vaccine side effects, that they might have to pay out of pocket for the vaccine (despite it being free), not being able to get the vaccine from a trusted place, or having difficulty traveling to a vaccination site,” states a recent report from the Kaiser Family Foundation.

“Among Hispanic adults, the shares expressing many of these concerns are even greater among those with lower incomes, the uninsured, and those who are poten-

As the line for vaccine doses shrank, a group of participants started doing Zumba. The fair provided several activities, like dancing and face painting, to bring as many families as possible in to get vaccinated.

tially undocumented.”

Humboldt County Health Officer Ian Hoffman has repeatedly said offering local employees time off to get vaccinated and even sick leave if they experience side effects would reduce barriers locally, though it’s unclear how many businesses are doing it.

True North, meanwhile, has worked to get translated health and safety information to Humboldt’s Latinx community, while also working with the vaccine hesitant and creating more comfortable

environments for Latinx community members to get vaccinated in. And so the idea of the family friendly vaccine fair was born and the nonprofit started planning a festive event that would feel distinctly different than the mass vaccination clinics being organized by public health.

Before the fair, Castillo and True North spent time canvassing in Latinx communities at churches, mercados and neighborhoods, posting Spanish-language flyers about the vaccine fair with phone Continued on page 13 » northcoastjournal.com • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • NORTH COAST JOURNAL

numbers — including her own — for those hesitant about the COVID vaccine to call for more information. Castillo told those who called about her story why she decided to get the vaccine and her experience getting her shot.

“They’re afraid of getting a reaction,” Castillo said. “We have a group of three people working to talk to people and I haven’t heard a different concern but that they’re all afraid to get a bad reaction to the vaccine. So, we always tell them to talk to their doctor — sometimes they begin to tell me what (medical conditions) they have, and I can’t answer that, but we give them the information we can.”

The day of the vaccine clinic last month was unusually warm and drizzly. In front of the COVID-19 vaccine clinic at College of the Redwoods gymnasium, Castillo and True North’s team of volunteer organizers set up a sound system for music and ta-

bles, one for snacks filled with pan dulce, water and juice, another with kids’ activities, like coloring books and markers, and a third for people to get raffle tickets and free tacos.

The rain didn’t dampen Castillo’s helpful demeanor. She was wearing a mask but smiled with her eyes as she greeted those walking up to the gym, asking them first in Spanish if they were there for their vaccination, then directing them to where they needed to go.

If they didn’t speak Spanish, she used the bit of English she knows to direct them. But she was there primarily as a first point of contact for those who only speak Spanish, letting them know there were people there to speak to them in their language. At one point, she held a bundle of balloons that she passed out to kids.

She said she felt happy and emotional at the fair, pointing out that while the fair

drew in some folks to get vaccinated, others showed up to get their shots totally unaware of the accompanying activities and free tacos.

Adding to the festive, inviting atmosphere was Jorge Matias, who works for St. Joseph Health and whom True North invited to put on a Zumba lesson. With an energetic charm, Matias got people dancing.

According to the Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services, a total of 109 people were vaccinated during the June 13 fair, 27 of them walk-ins. In comparison, the week of July 12 saw Public Health’s mobile team vaccinate a total of 97 people at the Humboldt Crabs game and clinics in Rio Dell, Fortuna and Samoa, according to a July 13 COVID update to the board of supervisors.

Public health officials have also said that even registering for a vaccine appointment can pose another barrier for those wanting to get their vaccinations.

During an April meeting with LatinoNet, Hoffman said Public Health’s goal is to ensure vaccine equity for the Latinx community and to guarantee that any Latinx resident seeking a COVID-19 vaccine feels comfortable and confident before, during and after their appointment, which is what True North was able to accomplish with its vaccine fair.

“People really enjoyed the event,” Castillo said. “They felt comfortable and

like they were with family, and at ease because there were people there who spoke Spanish.”

True North held another vaccine clinic in Arcata similar to the one at the College of the Redwoods, with raffles, free food and Zumba, but won’t stop there. True North will hold more vaccine fairs in Fortuna and Eureka, continuing with the nonprofit’s mission of making sure everyone has an opportunity to get vaccinated in a setting that makes them comfortable, no matter the distance. Castillo, for one, is excited.

“I think [the future vaccine fairs] will go very well and we’ll be successful because we really want all people to get vaccinated and feel safer at work and at school, with their family and the simple fact of going outside,” Castillo said. l Iridian Casarez (she/her) is a staff writer at the Journal.

Gallagher’s finds a new spot and Mazzotti’s starts over on the plaza

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

Gallagher’s makes a move Kelly Erben is about to start a seating, serving and dishwashing shift at Gallagher’s Irish Pub and Restaurant, as she has for 16 years, “the last original staffer,” as she says, and owner since 2017. But she’s not heading through the corner-facing glass double doors of the Historic Eagle House, built in 1886. According to Jennifer Metz, co-owner of the Inn at 2nd & C from which Erben rented, Phatsy Kline’s will expand into that kitchen and dining room.

Instead, Erben is bound for the new home of Gallagher’s, the apple green, flattopped building festooned with flags at 1604 Fourth St. in Eureka, on the corner of Q Street, formerly her pizza place Shenanigans.

When Erben bought Shenanigans a couple years ago, she says she was already eyeing the calendar for the end of Gallagher’s lease, which finished at the end of May and was extended for the transition. Looking at costs and other issues, she says she felt she had to decide “to either close Gallagher’s or move Gallagher’s.” She chose the latter and now, “We’re trying to put a full restaurant in a small one.” That includes the full Gallagher’s menu (plus pizza, once the new ovens are installed) and enough tchotchkes to fill a Hibernian hall.

The kitchen, however, is bigger in the new spot. “We were doing nearly $1 million a year on two burners and one fryer,” says Erben. “Those kids were miracle workers and jugglers.” She says she’s brought over almost all her kitchen staff, who are turning out the same pepper-flecked fish and thick, browned chips as they have for years at the Eagle House.

She’s still hiring to add to her staff of 14, though she’s having trouble finding people.

But for the first time she’ll have a manager, which she says is welcome help, especially after the exhausting work of moving and refurbishing the kitchen. The renovation and move amid the pandemic, she says, “is the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life.”

Three years after taking over Gallagher’s, Erben says she was finally making money

Gallagher’s fish and chips in its new location on Fourth Street. Photo by Jennifer Fumiko Cahill when an unfortunate cocktail of wildfires and COVID-19 turned her business upside down. PPP and personal loans kept it afloat, she says, but shelter-in-place restrictions, the loss of out-of-town clientele and supply chain issues were among myriad obstacles. “There were days when we earned $75 and yet had $400 in labor. … We couldn’t get Coors Light for three weeks. In America!”

Erben says there were some blown circuits at the new location Monday (now fixed) and she’s getting complaints from the city about the chain link fencing and razor wire around the small parking lot, but she’s undaunted. “The worst of it’s over. I have worked so hard to the point of falling over every day,” and now she’s back to running her restaurant.

“Our regular customers are sneakin’ in like crazy,” says Erben, adding that live music will be returning, too. And while you can take your food to go, she won’t be using delivery services like DoorDash or online ordering. “Fish and chips has gotta be eaten hot,” she says.

Mazzotti’s stays put Meanwhile, in Arcata, Mazzotti’s, dark since closing a little more than a year ago, is seeing activity at last. After the hoped-for sale of the facility to Jack Wu, co-owner of nearby Nori, fell through, Joe Mazzoti reviewed his options. Mazzotti had been looking at spaces for the business, which originally started in Eureka in 1976, including in McKinleyville and a couple smaller dining rooms. “I kept coming back to Mazzotti’s on the Plaza,” he says, especially the liquor license that would allow it to operate later as a nightlife spot, an option he’d been pitching to potential buyers. Finally, he says, “I bought my own deal.”

Before you tie on a napkin, Mazzotti says he’s tentatively planning a fall reopening of the 773 Eighth St. location. And while the recipes and the red sauce will remain the same, the menu is due for some changes.

Expect more contemporary plating and presentation of old favorites, as well as some paring down. Once open seven days a

week with dinner sets available all day, he’s looking at fewer days, separate à la carte lunch and dinner menus, and more specialty drinks. After dinner service, he says he wants to do three or four nights a week of music and entertainment: karaoke, jam nights, live bands and DJs until 2 a.m. Down the road, maybe Sunday brunch.

To that end, “We completely gutted the interior,” says Mazzotti, explaining how he’ll relocate the stage and have Wallace and Hinz put in a new bar as a centerpiece, as well as plans for hinged windows to give the plaza-facing tables an outdoor feel. Woodtopped tables will replace linens and paper, which he knows some parents whose kids occupied themselves coloring with crayons will miss. (Linens and laundry aside, at $90 per roll, he estimates the paper alone cost $1,000 per month.) The closure, he says, is a chance to revamp and improve the place.

“We opened [in Arcata] 19 years ago in September of 2002 … and you don’t get an opportunity to … close down… and do all the work necessary. … I just wanna do it right.”

That might mean changes in workflow, hiring and pay, too. Reflecting on the pre-pandemic model or paying minimum wage for front of house and a couple bucks more in the kitchen, with the exception of chefs, and shared tips, Mazzotti sees the low wages as contributing to difficulty attracting and retaining “quality employees.”

Instead, he says it’s time “to reconceptualize how we do things as an industry,” penciling out “a living wage” for a professional crew.

How it will all come together, how long it will take, whether indoor dining will be sidelined by the Delta variant and how patrons will like the new Mazzotti’s are among a million things on Mazzotti’s mind. With a laugh he says it comes with the territory. “I worry every morning at 3 a.m. … Worry is a huge motivator to do things right.” ● Jennifer Fumiko Cahill (she/her) is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

he first time I met Jain Tuey, she was starting her freshman year at Fortuna High School, where I was teaching. After work, I ran into her dad Skip at Safeway and we chatted. The whole time, Jain was holding a basketball against her hip, impatient and glaring at me in her T-shirt and sweatpants. It was early fall and not yet basketball season. I asked her why she was carrying a basketball and she snapped, “I like basketball!”

By the time Tuey was an 11th grader, I had been her teacher twice and we were buddies, even though she was always grumpy with me and pretended to not like my style of communication. She could give it back as well. She became my teacher’s assistant when she was 16, following in a long line of assistants who did not care for making copies and running errands.

One day, I gave her a dollar to run to the post office, get a stamp and post a letter.

The post office was only two blocks away and it didn’t seem like a complex task. I guess it wasn’t a simple task after all and the incident made for an often-told story, but I’ll stop here at her insistence.

Tuey was relentless on the high school basketball court. She was a leader, running the point, stealing the ball; she became a complete student of the game. In 2008, after a successful career at Fortuna High School with all-league honors, she left for Shasta Junior College with high hopes. There, she garnered freshman player of the year awards.

Her brother died that summer and she came home to be with her family, devastated. She’d soon face other deaths and obstacles. The next two years, she worked and took some classes. She also coached Fortuna’s freshman girls basketball team — one of the toughest coaching assignments since one is often dealing with dads who taught their girls the game, coached youth teams and don’t want to give up control.

Tuey was successful her first time coaching, even though many of the more talented girls were moved up to junior varsity and varsity.

During this period, Coach Doug Oliviera of College of the Redwoods was trying to get her to come play women’s basketball for him. Oliviera is a legend in local basketball and would become Tuey’s inspiration as a coach and role model after joining the 20112012 team.

With only six women, CR finished second in conference and made state history by finishing a game with just three players after

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

Jain Tuey on the court with Humboldt State University’s Jacks in the 20122013 season. Courtesy of Jain Tuey injuries and fouls, a victory over Mendocino.

Tuey was an All-Golden Valley Conference pick, team MVP and among the top 10 scoring leaders in California. It was the first year CR made the state playoffs in 20 years.

She transferred to Humboldt State University for the next two seasons, gaining attention as one of the few recent local players making the grade at HSU. She was team captain her senior year and won the Fighting Jack Award for her relentlessness.

She also finished her degree in kinesiology.

She became Oliviera’s assistant coach at CR for the 2014-15 season and took over the program as head coach in 2017, winning the league title in 2019. Her coaching highlight so far has been hosting and winning a state championship bracket game against Skyline College in front of a packed home crowd gym. Having been overlooked by the selection committee as the No. 8 seed, a death seed when the No. 1 seed is one of the top teams in the nation, they lost to San Joaquin Delta College after only trailing by four points at the half.

CR has had a difficult time in recent years both luring athletes into the area and keeping local ones around after graduating high school. According to Tuey, this year has been particularly difficult, with no full high school schedules and an overlap of sports last year making it hard to communicate with local kids.

Always learning, Tuey recently met with Jason White, the new football coach at CR who has had great success recruiting locally, and came away with some ideas on how to keep the troops local. Regardless, for many local athletes, staying home is a tough sell.

Tuey has signed Gracie Betts and Kendall Stewart from Fortuna into the program — the duo hardly lost a game the last two years. Returners Ashley Quigley and Denise Horton, along with some other promising newcomers and veterans, could respond well to her intensity this year.

Tuey is already a master of the nuts and bolts at the community college basketball level. She likes a smothering defense, combined with a quick transition and shooting the three-pointers. She also knows how to work around the players and their talents.

That is the part of coaching that the fans see.

What makes Tuey a particularly good coach are the intangibles. She connects with

her players, stays on top of their grades and eligibility, and treats them as friends even after they have finished CR. She listens, cares and understands the hardships of the age.

She expects commitment and hard work, but her athletes love her because she leads by example.

She wants to continue coaching because she loves to “watch the growth of her athletes on and off the court.” She says, “Basketball gave me opportunities that I would not have had and I want to be part of that for others. What Coach Oliviera did for me, I want to do for them.”

Her former athletes sing her praise.

Bobbie Purify, one of the best local female athletes says, “Jain is one of my few female role models in life. We are not that far apart in age and we are good friends, but she knew when to be serious with me. I knew that Jain had some tough times in life like I did and we connected. She encouraged me to play and let basketball be part of what keeps me going and gives me opportunities.” Purify is finishing her college basketball career at William Jessup College in Rocklin, majoring in kinesiology and hoping to coach one day.

Does all this sound familiar?

Bree Northern, another of Tuey’s former local players, says, “Jain was more than a great coach, but a true friend, a mentor and someone I could always turn to. I cherish the years I played for her. She helped me become the best player I could be, and guided me to my potential as a student athlete and as a person.” Northern will be playing at Simpson College this season.

As a real estate agent at Coldwell Banker Cutten Realty, Tuey will be balancing her time this year: maybe teaching a class or two, coaching summer ball, then running conditioning workouts before official practice starts Oct. 1.

When I watched Tuey’s team play a couple years ago, she was dressed for the part, professional and athletic. We made quick eye contact, and she gave me a head nod and a little smirk as if to say, “Hey, look at me Kaus, I’m running this show and I’m all grown up now, and no one wants to hear the stamp story again.” l

FISHING THE NORTH COAST

Ocean Salmon Season Showing Signs of Life

By Kenny Priest

W

ell, it looks like the salmon season on the North Coast has a pulse after all.

After the first three weeks of the season produced very little, especially out of Eureka, salmon are finally starting to show up. The hot spot has been right out front of Trinidad.

“It’s been like this off and on all season,” said Tony Sepulveda of Shellback Sport Fishing. “I’ve had a handful of days where we’ve done a fish a rod or better.” After long stretches of unfishable weather and the salmon nowhere to be found, the Eureka fleet joined the Trinidad party over the weekend. The fishing was good, with some boats getting limits and others close to it. Most of the boats were working the 03 to 06 lines in 180 to 220 feet of water.

There have been plenty of shakers to keep you on your toes as well as plenty of coho. With only 12 days left in the season, it’s good to see some smiles at the dock.

It’s been a tough year but it looks like it may well end on a high note. For more information on the ocean sport salmon season, visit www.wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/ Ocean/Regulations/Salmon.

Marine Forecast Fresh to strong northerly breezes and steep seas will persist all week. As of Tuesday, Friday’s forecast is calling for north winds 5 to 15 knots and waves northwest 6 feet at seven seconds. Saturday, the winds will be out of the north 10 to 15 knots and waves will be out of the northwest 6 feet at seven seconds. Sunday, winds will be out of the north 10 to 15 knots with waves out of the northwest 7 feet at seven seconds. These conditions can and will change by the weekend. For an up-to-date weather forecast, visit www.weather.gov/ eureka or www.windy.com. To monitor the latest Humboldt bar conditions, visit www.wrh.noaa.gov/eka/swan. You can also call the National Weather Service at 443-7062 or the office on Woodley Island at 443-6484.

The Oceans: Eureka With few signs of salmon, the Eureka fleet has moved its efforts north to Trinidad, where a decent bite has been going on for a couple weeks.

Tim Klassen of Reel Steel Sport Fishing made the run north the past few days and reported a pretty good bite.

“There’s lots of shakers around and keepers up to 20 pounds,” said Klassen. “We boated seven on Sunday and Monday, with fish to 14 pounds fishing in 200 feet of water. Most of the fish are coming at 70 feet and shallower.”

Petaluma resident John Burch landed this beautiful 19-pound king salmon while fishing out of Trinidad. Trinidad is currently providing the best action for ocean salmon anglers.

Trinidad

“We’re seeing a pretty good salmon bite right out front of Trinidad now,” said Curt Wilson of Wind Rose Charters. “Most of the fish are in 200 to 250 feet of water from Trinidad Head to Cone Rock,” said Wilson. Some of the boats are reporting limits but most days are more than a fish a rod. I wouldn’t call it limit-style fishing yet. The rockfish bite remains steady, with limits of blacks coming easily between the Head and Patrick’s Point.

Shelter Cove

The rockfish bite has been great all week, reports Jake Mitchell of Sea Hawk Sport Fishing. “Most of the boats were getting quick limits,” said Mitchell. “The lingcod bite picked up this week as well with limits on most days. The salmon bite showed signs of life again starting Thursday and peaking on Friday. It slowed to about a fish per rod over the weekend for those fishing the Old Man.”

Crescent City

The salmon are spread out but some are being caught each day, according to Britt Carson of Crescent City’s Englund Marine.

“The best bite has been between Round Rock and the green can in 100 feet of wa-

ter,” said Carson. “The guys putting in the time are getting limits while others aren’t doing as well. There’s been lots of zeros.

The rockfish and lingcod bite continues to be excellent when the boats can get out.

The California halibut bite has been slow due to the wind and lack of effort. Clamming was good on the last round of minus tides, with lots of limits reported. The clams continue to be on the small side.”

The Rivers: Lower Klamath The salmon bite has slowed in the estuary. Only a handful of fish were caught each day over the weekend. There were quite a few rolling but the bite never turned on.

Anchovies rigged with a spinner blade has been the top producer so far. Best fishing has been on the incoming and a couple hours after the high tide. ● Read the complete fishing roundup at www.northcoastjournal.com.

Parsing the Witch Hunt

HUMBOLDT

BAY BISTRO

Doug Ingold’s There Came a Contagion

By Gabrielle Gopinath reviews@northcoastjournal.com

H

umboldt author Doug Ingold’s new novel There Came a Contagion lays out a dystopic vision of a countryside gripped by drought and famine, where frightened people seek scapegoats. Religious and civic leaders rise to prominence by mastering the articulation and gradual augmenting of that fear, assigning blame to outsiders in ways that dovetail with extant biases. These leaders say “the contagion” has come from outside and that punishing or purging figures at the group’s margins will put things back to rights, encouraging townspeople to overcome inhibitions that previously constrained the open expression of hate. Rhetoric functions as an accelerant, fanning long-standing bias and resentment into murderous intent.

A Contagion is a work of historical fiction set among peasants in a 16th century German village and, yes, it’s about a witch hunt, but the hunt proper does not commence until the book’s second half. The novel’s early chapters methodically set the stage for this grotesque event, building a world from the sights, sounds and cognitive horizons of a medieval village, and situating young protagonist Elsebett in a multigenerational narrative therein.

Ingold’s medieval tale is propelled in part by a desire to illustrate the range of human response to societal crisis, and no one who’s been paying attention to U.S. headlines since the COVID-19 pandemic hit will be surprised by its inglorious nature. Readers who are moved to superimpose the story in mind’s eye over the map of recent U.S. history, like a template will likely raise their eyebrows at the passages of overlap and exhale at the parts where the stories diverge.

Present day parallels aside, Ingold’s chronicle follows two generations of a German-speaking farming family in a tiny Western European village. Bereaved father Basil Helgen indentures his 7-year-old daughter Elsebett to village midwife/healer Rachel Mueller after the child’s mother dies in childbirth. His family’s life is difficult, like any pre modern subsistence farmer’s: hard outdoor labor, close family and community ties, narrow economic margins, intermittent hunger and vulnerability to external forces like unpredictable weather and extortionate feudal masters. These aspects of community life figure in the book’s earlier chapters, told largely from Basil’s point of view. By the book’s midsection, when Elsebett begins her apprenticeship, the narrative shifts to adopt

her perspective with lyrically imagined passages detailing Frau Mueller teaching her to forage for medicinal plants and compound medications, how to assist in childbirth and, controversially, how to read.

The author’s previous novel Rosyland plotted points of contact between old San Francisco money, the theater world of Ashland, Oregon, and the cannabis culture of Southern Humboldt.

In this plot, place is a constant, while characters’ connections unfold in time. Ingold is competent at describing an intensely local existence where, especially for women, opportunities for exposure to the outside world are rare.

Ingold practiced law in Garberville for many years before retiring to write full time, which may have served him well when it comes to writing about rural village life. His plainspoken narrative is attentive to familial triangulations and conflicts across generations. It forays readily into the interior, noting how a dynamic between two people might be experienced as “a private physical sensation,” and how a person ensconced in a close-knit family can feel creeping isolation “growing around him like a thick skin.”

In the novel’s second half, a sense of impending disaster takes hold. Theories blaming drought and famine on a particular marginalized group gain feverish adherents, as initially halting efforts to identify a scapegoat become a juggernaut. Elsebett and her mistress Rachel possess knowledge about the natural world — much less the intimate functions of the supposedly sinful female body — that has not been incorporated within the discipline of medicine.

In the eyes of their friends and neighbors, these features become enough to certify the women as a threat.

There Came a Contagion deftly crafts a portrait of a world before science, where calendar time is reckoned in terms of saints’ days and the church is sole arbiter of truth.

“Contagions want to happen,” Frau Mueller says to Elsebett at one point. “What a

The contagion produces a sleight of hand to draw attention away from itself.” Witch hunts, she says, are entertaining by design: They appeal because they are associated with “excitement, drama and suspense.” Before they do anything else, it seems, they answer the craving for a cool story.

The book’s final third surveys the motives that make it easy for the good folks of the village to accommodate evil. Fear and a sense of grievance motivate some characters’ fascination, while for others it’s malice mingled with an inchoate desire to stick it to authority.

At one point, Rachel predicts that someday in the future a young nun in a convent, leafing through chronicles, “will find our time noted there, and she will marvel that such madness could have happened.” Such a quasi-modern confidence — in the power of the written word and society’s trope toward reason — sets Rachel apart from her peers. Today’s readers might mull this commentary, which the author has placed in the mouth of a 16th century peasant midwife, and be struck by the audacity of its optimism. ● Gabrielle Gopinath (she/her) is an art writer, critic and curator based in Arcata.

SETLIST

Living on a Thin Line

By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

I

’m a little confused lately and I’m not the only one. Now that things have opened up again, and I did my civic duty and got the jab, what’s the plan? I find myself oscillating between going maskless and fancy-free until I read something about the Delta variant and go back to covering up for a hot minute.

How about you, what do you think, dear reader? I see that the mask-optional rules in businesses are built entirely on a premise of the honor system, which is not a traditionally strong bulwark against bad behavior (in this country at least). And it isn’t like the pandemic has just gone away. People are still getting sick. I saw an advertisement for the coming summer Olympics this week and I’ll be honest, it felt like something from the first act of a horror film. I’ve been going to shows and events and afterward felt an uneasy, queasiness I can’t just chalk up to my alcohol intake. We are living in the hangover days of this pandemic and I can’t say for certain the troubles are receding. So I have a list of events here, developed with different comfort levels in mind. Whatever balance your Fear of Missing Out has struck with your fear of getting sick is entirely your business and I suggest that you not let anyone fault you for it. Use your discretion and have a good time.

Good luck.

Thursday Ween is a band that covers genres hopping and skipping from style to style through every record’s sequencing like a bingo roller. So that there are so many Ween cover bands out there is itself a sort of meta-event that desires its own analysis, which I won’t attempt here. Suffice it to say, you can catch one of them, appropriately called Weener, at the Wave

Lounge in the Blue Lake Casino at 9 p.m. for a free show, if you are so inclined.

Sunday

Friday

If indoor shows aren’t quite your thing yet — and believe me, you have nothing but sympathy and understanding coming from me if that’s the case — then I will continue to endeavor to suggest some outdoor gatherings for the duration of the plague. There are two great ones today.

At the new Art Market on the Eighth Street side of the Arcata Plaza, you can catch two back-to-back acts for free, with the James Zeller Trio starting at 11 a.m., followed by a new group called The California Poppies at 1:30 p.m. I am told these poppies have a sound derived from a distillation of hippie-era West Coast bands, so bear that in mind.

Later on, at 7 p.m. on the great lawn in Redwood Park, there is a meet-up for another one of those delightful forest shows put on by Outer Space Arcata, which, like too many Arcatans these days is technically homeless with the loss of its M Street location due to development. Quick aside: I don’t use the term “houseless,” because that is useless bullshit. Word games that fix nothing, a hallmark of American liberalism. Anyway, on the bill are two

Siren’s Song has a free rock-ish show going down tonight at 8:30 p.m. Not Ewe are a funky and talented outfit with a pastiche of eclectic styles and influences I dumbed down and generalized in my notes as, “These dudes probably like Primus.” It will be opening for the mighty FHOG, aka Finger Hash of the Gods, which last I checked are still a fun-loving stoner band of merry bandits.

Saturday Soul Party is back at Humbrews at 9 p.m. You remember that old school, all vinyl orgy of power curated by DJ Red and company? Well, I do and as I am into maxing and relaxing — and most importantly, vaxxing — I feel comfortable enough to endorse this glorious sweat fest with about as much cautious vigor as I muster for anything else these days. Let’s just hope that the people on the dance floor are generally of the correct opinion when it comes to the germ theory of disease ($5).

excellent indie folk acts from New York City, the Georgia-born Larkin Grimm and the multimedia sensation (read: puppets) Cookie Tongue. Daniel Nickerson curates the event, and you are politely reminded to wear a mask and donations are happily accepted.

Monday

Steve Poltz is a long-running troubadour whose CV is filled with some fairly impressive milestones, including founding indie-folk act The Rugburns and co-writing a smash hit with ’90s folk sensation Jewel.

Tonight, you can catch him at the Trinidad Town Hall for an intimate set of tunes from his large discography. It’s an early one at 7 p.m., so if you are not much of a night-owl, this is a good bet for you ($25). 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.

Hybrid Hits

Werewolves Within and Gunpowder Milkshake

By John J. Bennett

screens@northcoastjournal.com

REVIEWS

WEREWOLVES WITHIN. Surprise or not, I don’t know a whole helluva lot about video games. I’ve dabbled but that particular swath of popular culture is, by and large, foreign to me. So it brought on some trepidation when, before the title card was even revealed, Werewolves Within opened with a Ubisoft logo. (I know enough to recognize the brand.) I didn’t really know anything about the movie up to that point, except that werewolf titles are somehow always compelling, it stars the great Sam Richardson — with whom my wife and I recently became delightfully acquainted in our late arrival to Veep — and the script is credited to Mishna Wolff, formerly best known as an ex-wife of Marc Maron and recently risen to prominence as a memoirist and, apparently, screenwriter.

The gamble paid off, though, because the movie bears little resemblance to any video game I’ve played (not saying much).

It does, however, manage to balance self-awareness with the goofy, giddy playfulness that is the common denominator of all successful horror comedies.

To the insular, oft-snowbound New England hamlet of Beaverfield arrives Ranger Finn Wheeler (Richardson), a well-intentioned do-gooder who is, by most accounts, too nice for his own good.

He clings to the notion that he might rekindle a relationship with his estranged, unseen ex-girlfriend while he listens to primal scream self-help tapes urging the repetition of the word “balls.” He might be a fish out of water wherever he goes.

Decamping to an inn operated by the recently widowed Jeanine Sherman (Catherine Curtin), Finn is introduced to the town’s cast of oddballs. Charming letter carrier Cecily Moore (Milana Veyntraub) serves as tour guide and would-be paramour as Finn meets the gang: antisocial trapper Emerson (Glenn Fleshler); lunk-headed mechanics Marcus (George Basil) and Gwen (Sarah Burns); crackpot syrup purveyors Trisha (Michaela Watkins) and Pete (Michael Chernus); and re-located rich techies Joaquim (Harvey Guillén) and Devon (Cheyenne Jackson). At the center of a heated socio-environmental debate are Sam Parker (Wayne Duvall), representative of a gas concern with designs on buying the village and routing

26

a pipeline through it, and environmental scientist Dr. Ellis (Rebecca Henderson), who’s vocally opposed to the project. The townsfolk are divided in their intentions, some salivating at the prospect of a payday and some dead-set on preserving the tranquility of their woodsy idyll.

Then bodies start piling up, the generators are disabled and everyone is thrust into the darkened inn to unravel the mystery. (Yes, there’s a werewolf.)

While Werewolves Within may not achieve cult/classic status, it is self-assured and confident in its delivery, making the most of a stellar cast (I listed so many names above because nearly all of the principals are legends of the comedy scene) and offering a few charmingly surprising twists and turns. The pipeline controversy feels a little underserved by the rest of the story, maybe something of a red herring. But the movie as a whole distinguishes itself not only among video game adaptations but also among the (decidedly paltry) recent crop of scary comedies. R. 97M. STREAMING. GUNPOWDER MILKSHAKE straddles a similarly treacherous boundary: part feminist treatise, part post-Tarantino pastiche, part straight shoot-em-up, it is an amalgam of influences that succeeds, like Werewolves, partially thanks to the power of its cast but also because it is smart enough to acknowledge its influences without attempting to parrot them. For almost three decades we’ve sat through pale, by the numbers imitations of QT’s discursive dialog and beat-drop violent turns; maybe enough time has passed now that a new generation can more reflectively pay homage.

Which is not to say that Gunpowder Milkshake is only referential or reverential: it has its own distinct tone and themes and color palette. It is a product of precursors but distinguishes itself beyond that. Written by Navot Papushado and Ehud Lavski, directed by Papushado — whose Big Bad Wolves (2013) was vocally championed by Tarantino himself — Gunpowder centers on an assassin named Sam (Karen Gillan), long estranged from her mother Scarlet (Lena Headey), also a contract killer, who is employed by the Firm, a shadowy syndicate that runs … well,

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

The only book club I’m showing up for. Gunpowder Milkshake everything and is represented by Sam’s handler Nathan (Paul Giamatti).

When Sam is called upon to retrieve some stolen assets and neutralize the accountant responsible, she finds herself in the midst of a kidnapping plot she can’t help but derail. This creates problems: Sam becomes the de facto guardian of Emily (Chloe Coleman), aged 8 and three-quarters, and must throw herself on the mercy of her mother’s former colleagues (read: killer librarians), played astoundingly by Angela Bassett, Michelle Yeoh and Carla Gugino.

Gunpowder Milkshake moves among its set-pieces with remarkable aplomb, all the while building the interpersonal relationships that shore up the emotional center of the piece. It’s a girl-power banger that doesn’t feel like it’s trying too hard. I’ll offer as evidence: Angela Bassett dragging a baddie around after applying a claw hammer to his soft palate and Michelle Yeoh dispatching a number of his cohort with a length of chain. Nuff said. R. 154M. NETFLIX. l John J. Bennett (he/him) is a movie nerd who loves a good car chase.

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, July 22, 2021 • northcoastjournal.com

or millennia, a formidable rock outcrop has stood tall in the middle of somewhere out in the forests of Humboldt County. The lonely boulder has outlived the comings and goings of busy humans for countless generations.

How many names has this massive butte been given by ephemeral humanity in its lifetime? I suspect more than one and I confess I know of none. But what difference does it make, I wonder? The rock is the rock, whatever humanity calls it, and to it our lives flit by in the blink of an eye. Villages, settlements and towns may fall and rise, and still the rock abides.

Cycles of old growth forests on the slopes of the outstretched hills around it come and go as meadow grasses in this rock’s lifetime. No name will stand that test of time.

I will allow the rock now to speak for itself from these images. ● To keep abreast of David Wilson’s (he/ him) most current photography, visit www.mindscapefx.com or follow him on Instagram at @david_wilson_mfx and on Twitter @davidwilson_mfx.

LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE TO BIDDERS CONTRACTOR PREQUALIFICATION FOR: COMMUNITY CORRECTIONS RE-ENTRY RESOURCE CENTER PROJECT PROJECT #170223 Notice is hereby given that the County of Humboldt (COUNTY) has determined that all bidders on the Community Corrections Re-Entry Resource Project (Project #170223) to be undertaken by the COUNTY must be pre-qualified prior to submitting a bid on that project. The current estimate for the Project is approximately $20,000,000. No bid will be accepted from a Contractor that has failed to comply with the requirements of this NOTICE TO BIDDERS. Copies of the Contractor Prequalification Packet for the Community Corrections Re-Entry Resource Project, #170223 are available for download from the County’s website at: https://humboldtgov.org/Bids.aspx?bidID=377.

Contractors are responsible for monitoring this website for addendums to the Prequalification Package and answers to timely submitted questions.

The Prequalification Package may also be seen at Humboldt County Department of Public Works, 1106 Second Street, Eureka, California. The COUNTY makes no guarantees and assumes no responsibility for information obtained from and errors that may exist in copies of the Prequalification Package retrieved from any other source.

Contractors shall possess a California Class B license to bid as the Prime Contractor on this project. It is mandatory that all Contractors who intend to submit a bid, fully complete the Application for Prequalification (included in this Prequalification Packet), provide all materials requested therein, and be approved by the County of Humboldt to be on the final pre-qualified bidders list. No bid will be accepted from a Contractor that has failed to comply with these requirements. If two or more business entities submit a bid as part of a Joint Venture or expect to submit a bid as part of a Joint Venture, each entity within the Joint Venture must be separately qualified to bid. The last date to submit a fully completed questionnaire is 5:00 p.m. on August 5th, 2021 (8/5/21). Contractors are encouraged to submit their completed Application for Prequalification as soon as possible to allow the COUNTY, at their sole discretion, to notify Contractors of omissions of information to be remedied, and notify Contractors of their pre-qualification status in advance of the bid advertisement for this project.

Answers to questions contained in the attached questionnaire, information about current bonding capacity, notarized statement from surety, and the most recent reviewed or audited financial statements, with accompanying notes and supplemental information, are required. The COUNTY will use these documents as the basis of rating Contractors in respect to the size and scope of contracts upon which each Contractor is qualified to bid. The COUNTY reserves the right to check other sources available. The County of Humboldt’s decision will be based on objective evaluation criteria.

The COUNTY reserves the right to adjust, increase, limit, suspend or rescind the pre-qualification rating based on subsequently learned information. Contractors whose rating changes sufficient to disqualify them will be notified and given an opportunity for a hearing consistent with the hearing procedures described below for appealing a pre-qualification rating.

While it is the intent of the pre-qualification questionnaire and documents required therewith to assist the County of Humboldt in determining bidder responsibility prior to bid and to aid the COUNTY in selecting the lowest responsible bidder, neither the fact of pre-qualification, nor any prequalification rating, will preclude the COUNTY from a post-bid consideration and determination of whether a bidder has the quality, fitness, capacity and experience to satisfactorily perform the proposed work, and has demonstrated the requisite trustworthiness.

One original and 3 copies of the Application for Prequalification shall be submitted to the address below. Digital copies and electronic submissions via email will not be accepted. The pre-qualification applications should be submitted under seal and marked “CONFIDENTIAL: PREQUALIFICATION SUBMITTAL PACKAGE FOR PROJECT #170223 – TIME SENSITIVE” to: Humboldt County Department of Public Works Attn: Thomas K. Mattson, Director 1106 Second Street Eureka, CA 95501 The pre-qualification applications (questionnaire answers and financial statements) submitted by Contractors are not public records and are not open to public inspection or public review. All information provided will be kept confidential to the extent permitted by law. However, the contents may be disclosed to third parties for purpose of verification, or investigation of

substantial allegations, or in the appeal hearing. State law requires that the names of contractors applying for pre-qualification status shall be public records subject to disclosure, and the first page of the questionnaire will be used for that purpose.

Each questionnaire must be signed under penalty of perjury in the manner designated at the end of the form, by an individual who has the legal authority to bind the Contractor on whose behalf that person is signing. If any information provided by a Contractor becomes inaccurate, it is the Contractor’s responsibility to immediately notify the COUNTY and provide updated accurate information in writing, under penalty of perjury. Any information that is determined to be incorrect will lead to disqualification of Contractor before or after bidding.

The COUNTY reserves the right to waive minor irregularities and incidental omissions in the information contained in the pre-qualification application submitted. The COUNTY also reserves the right to make all final determinations, and to determine at any time that the pre-qualification procedures will not necessarily be applied to future public works projects.

Contractors may submit completed Applications for Prequalification via mail or delivery service during regular working hours on any day that the offices of the Humboldt County Department of Public Works is open, to the address above. Contractors who submit a complete Application for Prequalification will be notified of their qualification status no later than ten (10) calendar days after receipt by the COUNTY. The COUNTY may refuse to grant pre-qualification where the requested information and materials are not provided, or not provided by 5:00 p.m. on August 5th, 2021 (8/5/21). There is no appeal from a refusal for an incomplete or late application, but re-application for a later project will be permitted.

The closing time for bids or the acceptance of bids will not be changed in order to accommodate supplementation of incomplete submissions, or late submissions.

Where a timely and completed application results in a rating below that necessary to pre-qualify, an appeal can be made. An appeal is begun by the Contractor delivering notice to the County of Humboldt of its appeal of the decision with respect to its pre-qualification rating, no later than 5:00 pm on the fifth calendar day following the day on which the notice of prequalification determination. Without a timely appeal, the Contractor waives any and all rights to challenge the decision of the County of Humboldt, whether by administrative process, judicial process or any other legal process or proceeding.

Upon notice of disqualification, the Contractor will be notified of the basis for the prospective bidder’s disqualification and provided with any supporting evidence that has been received from others or adduced as a result of an investigation by the COUNTY. If the Contractor gives the required notice of appeal and requests a hearing, the hearing shall be conducted so that it is concluded no later than ten (10) calendar days after the COUNTY’s receipt of the notice of appeal, and no later than five (5) business days prior to the last date for the receipt of bids on the project. The hearing shall be an informal process conducted by a panel to whom the County has delegated responsibility to hear such appeals (the “Appeals Panel”). The Director of Public Works shall appoint, prior to commencing the prequalification process, three or more public employees, who have expertise regarding projects similar to this project, to serve as the Appeals Panel. The Contractor will be given the opportunity to present information and present reasons in opposition to the rating. Within two (2) business days after the conclusion of the hearing, and barring any external unforeseen conditions, the Appeals Panel will render its decision. It is the intention of the COUNTY that the date for the submission and opening of bids will not be delayed or postponed to allow for completion of an appeal process.

Note: A contractor may be found not pre-qualified for bidding on a specific public works contract to be let by the COUNTY, or on all contracts to be let by the COUNTY until the contractor meets the COUNTY’s requirements. In addition, a contractor may be found not pre-qualified for either: Omission of requested information or Falsification of information ***** NOTICE: To contractors who are using subcontractors for this job, please be advised that the COUNTY may require, as to subcontractors, one of the following: The qualification of subcontractors in the following crafts or trades, following acceptance of your bid, but before the award is made: Pre-qualification of all subcontractors.

Pre-qualification of subcontractors in certain crafts.

Post-bid qualification review.

Experimental chef and co-owner of Hurricane Kate’s restaurant in Old Town Eureka (he once created a satiric menu for an imaginary restaurant called Pilfer’s); X-ray technician in Eugene, Oregon; self-proclaimed gonzo philosopher—in the tradition of Hunter S. Thompson—and social critic; artist; fire juggler and knife thrower; practitioner of yoga. All these designations help us remember Matt Yadley.

Matt was raised in southern California, and as he began to explore spirituality he lived with like-minded companions in Topanga Canyon. Continuing to pursue higher consciousness, he studied at UC Santa Cruz before heading further north to Arcata. His closest circle of friends were associated with Tin Can Mailman and other bookstores. He was most often at home in nature, particularly at the Trinidad beaches and along the Trinity River, and the McKenzie River in Oregon.

Matt is survived by his father Richard; sisters Jessica, Kady and Gwynne, and twin brother Jason; stepmothers Joy Yadley and Jayn Hunter; and brotherin-law Bill Raggio.

The public is invited to attend a potluck memorial on Moonstone Beach, Tuesday, August 10 at 4 pm.

Homework: Send me an oracle you’d like to receive for the first week of September. Newsletter@freewillastrology.com

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Author Valerie Andrews reminds us that as children, we all had the “magical capacity to see the land as an animal does; to experience the sky from the perspective of a flower or a bee; to feel the earth quiver and breathe beneath us; to know a hundred different smells of mud and listen unselfconsciously to the soughing of the trees.” Oh, how I would love you to be able to recover even a fraction of those talents in the coming days. My reading of the current astrological potentials tells me that your chances of doing so are much better than usual. Your ability to connect with the eternal child and wise animal within you is at a peak.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus singer Barbara Streisand has a shopping mall built below her large home. Its purpose isn’t to sell consumer goods to strangers but rather to stash her precious belongings and show them off when friends come over. Among the storefronts are an antique store, doll shop, costume shop, and candy store. The coming weeks would be an excellent time for you to start building a shopping mall beneath your home, too, Taurus. If that’s too expensive or complicated, here are alternatives: 1. Revitalize your appreciation for your treasured possessions. 2. Acquire a new treasured possession or two that will inspire you to love your life even more than you already do. 3. Reacquaint yourself with the spiritual powers that your treasured possessions arouse in you.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The Dalai Lama says there are core similarities between science and Buddhism. Both keep searching for ever-more complete versions of the truth. Both employ firsthand observation and experimentation to do that noble work. If they find new information that contradicts previously held versions of the truth, both are willing to discard them. Now that you Geminis are entering the Deep Questioning Phase of your astrological cycle, I’d love you to make generous use of the Buddhist/Scientific approach. More complete versions of the truth will be available in abundance in the coming weeks—if you’re alert for them.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian artist Artemisia Gentileschi (1593–1656) achieved the impossible: She became a supremely skilled and renowned painter in an era when women had virtually no opportunities to become artists. Many aspects of her work distinguished her from other painters. For example, she depicted women as having strong, agile hands and arms. In Artemisia’s world, the power of women’s wrists, forearms, and fingers signifies their ability to put their mark upon the world, to accomplish strenuous practical tasks with grace and flair. If I were going to paint images of you in the coming weeks, I would also portray you as having strong, agile hands and arms. I suspect you’ll have potent agency to get things done—to adeptly manipulate the material world to serve your ideals. (Thoughts about Artemisia’s hands come from art historian Mary D. Garrard.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “Once upon a time”: That’s your phrase of power these days. What do I mean by that? I’m suggesting that you will strengthen your problem-solving abilities by engaging in playful pretending for the sheer fun of it. I’m predicting that you will boost your confidence by dreaming up amusing magical stories in which you endure heroic tests and achieve epic feats. And I’m proposing that you will finetune your ability to accomplish practical feats if you regard your robust imagination as crucial to your success.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo singer-songwriter Fiona Apple says she’s not religious. On the other hand, she regularly kneels on the ground and announces to whatever great power might be listening, “Thank you for my problems, and I send my love everywhere.” She’s sincere. She regards her sadness and her challenges as being equally important to her happiness and suc-

cess. The difficulties teach her what she didn’t even realize she needed to know, and make her appreciate the good times more intensely. I suggest you borrow from her approach right now.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Nobel Prize-winning author Albert Camus wrote, “Great feelings bring with them their own universe”—which he said may either be degraded or splendid, selfish or generous. I love that he allowed for the possibility that great feelings could be positive and noble. So many renowned thinkers focus on negative and ignoble states of mind. In accordance with current astrological potentials, Libra, your task is to cultivate feelings that are splendid and generous. These sentiments should exalt you, uplift you, and empower you to spread transformative benevolence to those whose lives you touch.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “How can you hold on to something that won’t hold still?” asked Scorpio poet Benjamin Fondane. In general, you Scorpios have more talent than every other sign of the zodiac at doing just that: corralling wiggly, slippery things and making them work for you. And I expect this skill will be especially in play for you during the coming weeks.

Your grasp on the elusive assets won’t ever be perfect, but it will be sufficiently effective to accomplish small wonders.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian Calvin Trillin is a witty writer with a good imagination and a flair for inventive language. But back in school, he confesses, “Math was always my bad subject. I couldn’t convince my teachers that many of my answers were meant ironically.” You Sagittarians are authorized by the cosmic powers-that-be to borrow your style and attitude from Trillin in the coming weeks. So you shouldn’t be fixated on mathematical precision and fastidious logic; your task is not to be conceptually impeccable and scrupulously sensible. Rather, you have a license to be extra lyrical and lush and rhapsodic and humorous and irrepressible.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In 2011, an eBay seller produced a 19th-century photo that he said proved Capricorn actor Nicholas Cage is a time-traveling vampire. Although the character in the image did indeed resemble the Oscar-winning star, he rejected the theory, and emphatically declared that he is not a time-traveling vampire. Maybe that all sounds absurd, but I must tell you that you may soon have to deal with people’s equally inaccurate and off-kilter theories about you. My advice: Don’t take it personally. Simply correct others’ misimpressions and rely solely on yourself for definitive ideas about who you are.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I’ve assembled excerpts of love poems for your inspiration. Why? Because you’re entering the Intensified Intimacy Phase of your astrological cycle. Consider using the following riffs as inspiration when you interact with loved ones. 1. “I profess the religion of love; it’s the belief, the faith I keep.” 2. “Holding your hand, I can hear your bones singing into mine and feel the moon as it rolls through you.” 3.

“Raw light spills from your eyes, utterly naked, awakening an intoxicating shimmer of adventure.” 4. “I ask you please to speak to me forever.” (Poem fragments are from Ibn ‘Arabi, Al-Saddiq Al-Raddi, Herman Hesse, Sara Eliza Johnson, Alejandra Pizarnik.)

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): An Australian witch named Michelle Clinton praises the joys of a “moon garden.” It features flowers and plants that reveal their full beauty after dark.

Among the flowers that bloom at night are evening primrose, angel’s trumpet, and Dutchman’s pipe cactus. As for the flowers whose aromas are most potent after the sun sets: night-blooming jasmine, garden heliotrope, and honeysuckle.

According to my reading of the astrological omens, you will have resemblances to a moon garden in the near future, Pisces. Be alert for opportunities to glow and grow in the dark. (More: tinyurl.com/LunarGarden) l
