A Little Thank You

Weights and Measures

Editor: Thank you so much to the people who put up Little Free Libraries and manage them for the community. And thank you Linda Stansberry for your post and article on local ones (NCJ Daily, Dec. 29). I particularly appreciated reading what kind of items are in demand as that can inform possible donations. I am a visitor and borrower: I enjoy scanning the stack for appealing titles and have often found books I didn’t know about that I loved reading. The www.littlefreelibrary.org website has a host of information, including a map of registered libraries, so people can find out where they are in their neighborhood and beyond. Simona Carini, Trinidad

Editor: I enjoyed Barry Evans’ latest Field Notes (“Crash Blossoms,” Jan. 5). Following the logic of his “ambiguous” solution to the coin weighing problem, you could go one better and do zero weighings; just pick one coin and pronounce it the lightest. This might or might not yield the correct result (in this case, there’s a one in 27 chance it would), just like his solution of weighing 13 against 13 might or might not work. Richard Engel, Arcata

S was, uh, engrossed by the same folks who smoked the marijuana ordinance and its incredibly stinko Mitigated Negative Declaration. I think folks there in the Humboldt County bat cave did not do well in high school, because most people learn by then that there is a huge difference between “biennial” and “biannual.” Measure S clearly states that the tax will be collected biennially — once every two years — and that is what voters passed. We assume from the County Counsel’s argument in favor of the measure that they hope to collect the tax twice a year — biannually — but that’s not the law now and when they try I sure hope someone will sue them. Not a simple error, a four-times difference! But it’s beyond belief that the bureaucratic batbrains will begin to be better. How can attorneys confuse such words? On that question I draw a Blanck. Robert Sutherland, Ettersburg

Unloaded Editor: There are many messages in Peri Escardi’s wonderful article (“How to Run,” Jan. 5). But the one I responded to most was the implicit connection between running and the emotional resonance created with one we love. My father loved hunting and, at first (when I was 14), so did I. But after killing my second deer, I lost any urge I had to kill anything. I still went “hunting” with my dad, but I never loaded my rifle again. Just being with him was all I needed. That is the way of affection. Larry Hourany, McKinleyville

Medical Cannabis Medical Cannabis can be extremely beneficial for many patients who seek relief. It can also be very confusing if you don’t know all the options out there. From flowers to edibles, smoking to juicing, the amount of choices can be overwhelming. At the Humboldt CA Association, we are here to help you through the process. We offer a variety of options for our patients to choose from, but more importantly, we offer our patients the opportunity to sit down one on one with our staff and design a specific care plan for their needs. There are now several CBD (cannabidiol) options for patients who are looking for relief without a cerebral effect. CBD is the non-psychoactive cannabinoid compound that has incredible therapeutic benefits. CBD rich products are available in capsules, tincture sprays, and edibles for the patient who may not want to smoke at all. These products can help to relieve pain, reduce blood sugar levels, reduce seizures, calm inflammation, and can even inhibit cell growth in some tumor and cancer cells. There are over 100 cannabinoids that have been identified in the cannabis plant, and, with that, more benefits of the cannabis plant are discovered. We believe in the ‘Heart of Humboldt’, and professional and compassionate care is what you will always receive here.

Week in Weed

Cloudy Sessions By Thadeus Greenson

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

umboldt County marijuana growers hoping a typo would grant them a reprieve from paying the twice-yearly excise tax overwhelmingly passed by voters in November are going to be disappointed. When 65 percent of county voters passed Measure S, imposing a $1 to $3 per-square foot tax on commercial grows, they apparently missed a potentially crucial error, as did county counsel, the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors and just about everyone who looked at the ordinance. While the board thought it had approved a tax structure that would mandate biannual (twice a year) payments from growers projected to total more than $7 million a year, the final measure language read biennial, meaning once every two years. “Welcome to spell check, you know,” said County Counsel Jeffrey Blanck, explaining that he believes somewhere through the editing process the word biannual was misspelled and autocorrected to biennial. “This one slipped through.” But calm down, Blanck admonished, the error means little if anything in the grand scheme of things and certainly won’t prevent the local tax man from visiting growers twice a year. Blanck said county code provides that staff can correct “clerical errors” in measures and ordinances without further action by the board. And even if that wasn’t the case, Measure S included language allowing the board of supervisors to amend anything in it, except the tax rate, without having to go back to voters. l

The cannabis world had to sit through hours of questions about the Klu Klux Klan, Hillary Clinton, Muslim bans and torture, but the question it was waiting for finally came. An answer, however, didn’t really follow. Donald Trump’s nomination of Sen. Jeff Sessions for the post of attorney general has set off alarm bells in the world of legalized medical and recreational mari-

juana as, well, Sessions isn’t cool with the weed. It’s an uncoolness the senator has made plain on multiple occasions, from his reportedly saying 30 years ago that he thought the KKK was OK until he found out they smoked pot to last year, when he said on the Senate floor that “good people don’t smoke marijuana.” Remembering that it was Obama AG Eric Holder who distributed the memo that currently has the federal government standing down from prosecuting marijuana businesses operating in accordance with state law, and it’s easy to see why the industry is spooked by Sessions. It wasn’t until hours into the hearing when one of Sessions’ colleagues, Sen. Patrick Leahy of Vermont, piped up and asked if he’d use federal resources to prosecute sick people using marijuana under state law. “I won’t commit to never enforcing federal law,” Sessions answered. So does he agree with the aforementioned guidelines put out by Holder, Leahy asked. “I think some of them are truly valuable in evaluating cases, but fundamentally the criticism I think that is legitimate is that they may not have been followed,” Sessions said. “Using good judgment on how to handle these cases will be a responsibility of mine. I know it won’t be an easy decision but I will try to do my duty in a fair and just way.” Are we clear? Apparently not, as Utah Sen. Mike Lee then asked Sessions about how he viewed the marijuana issue through a states’ rights lens. “One obvious concern is the United States Congress has made the possession in every state and distribution an illegal act,” Sessions answered. If that’s something that’s not desired any longer, Congress should pass a law to change that rule. It is not the Attorney General’s job to decide what laws to enforce.” I’m not exactly sure what all that means but I’m pretty sure it does nothing to ease the heart palpitations of an industry that now operates legally under the laws of a majority of the nation’s states. l northcoastjournal.com • NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 12, 2017

Crab On, Finally

fter a lengthy standoff, fishermen and processors came to agreement on a Dungeness crab price of $2.875 a pound, clearing the way for boats to hit the water. Local vessels, however, remained moored as the Journal went to press Jan. 10, having reached a gentleman’s agreement to wait out the storm. Ken Bates, vice president of the Humboldt Fishermen’s Marketing Association, said the $2.875 price represents an evident split between the $2.75 offered by processors and the $3 price that has been in place since Nov. 15. The standoff had kept crab boats tied to docks from Alaska to Mexico, with fishermen feeling the pinch of a delayed season. The entire West Coast fleet went on strike in solidarity with Humboldt County fishermen after Pacific Seafoods — one of the largest seafood buyers in the region — dropped its per-pound buying price to $2.75 just as District 7 boats were set to begin the season after a lengthy delay due to domoic acid testing. In a press release from the marketing association, Bates said, “Pacific Seafood Group ... could find that it might take a significant amount of time to regain the status lost in the fishing community by their actions to lower the crab price. Only time will tell.” The standoff between fishermen and buyers caught headlines up and down the coast, and even prompted a public protest in Eureka.

Look Who’s Back

Brandt Brockschmidt-Apiki recently moved to California after working in Alaska fisheries for eight years. He took to the corner of Fourth and F streets one afternoon last week to protest the price cuts, saying they affect not just fishermen, but small businesses such as canneries and dive boats. “Crab fishermen have had to put up with a lot,” said Brockschmidt-Apiki. It has in fact been a rough couple of years for crab fishermen, especially in Humboldt County, where crab tested positive for high levels of domoic acid. Caused by an enormous oceanic algal bloom, domoic acid built up in the crustaceans and could cause “nausea, diarrhea and dizziness in humans” if eaten, according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife. Local fishermen got the all-clear to drop crab pots north of Humboldt Bay starting Dec. 1, but the start of the season was delayed to the south until domoic acid tests came back clear. Fishermen finally got the green light to drop pots in the region beginning Dec. 26, but then Pacific Seafood Group tried to lower its buying price, triggering the standoff. Throughout the standoff, the only boats fishing on the West Coast belonged to tribal groups. Brockschmidt-Apiki said the pricing standoff served to unite fishermen. “We [fishermen] tend to be more independent ... this is something that has broken that trend,” he said, referring to the strike. — Linda Stansberry POSTED 01.09.17 READ THE FULL STORY ONLINE.

‘Profoundly Disturbing’

Dick Magney was preparing to die on his own terms, then the county of Humboldt stepped in By Kimberly Wear kim@northcoastjournal.com

ick and Judy Magney knew his life was drawing to a close when he was admitted to St. Joseph Hospital in February of 2015. The 73-year-old former truck driver was suffering from a series of incurable long-term ailments. His quality of life was waning. Pain had become a constant companion. The couple had prepared for what lay ahead, having gone to an attorney four years earlier to draw up an advance health care directive that set out his final wishes. If Dick Magney could no longer make decisions for himself, his wife was designated to make them for him, with his sister as an alternate. “I want to live my life with dignity and for my loved ones to have pleasant memories of my final days. Thus, I wish to be allowed to die without prolonging my death with medical treatment … that will not benefit me,” his instructions read. Together with a team of doctors at St. Joseph, the Magneys charted a course of care that would keep him as comfortable as possible without invasive measures, which included discontinuing antibiotics for a heart valve infection. Then, without warning, came notice that Humboldt County Adult Protective

Services had been granted temporary jurisdiction over Dick Magney’s medical decisions. The previously agreed upon palliative care route was reversed. While that temporary order was later withdrawn, another would follow, this time an ultimately unsuccessful petition for a conservatorship over Dick Magney’s affairs by the county’s Public Guardian Office.

Meanwhile, the couple faced a new kind of struggle. It wasn’t for Dick Magney’s survival but for his ability to make the most personal of decisions: the right for him to die on his own terms. It’s a struggle the Magneys ultimately won after the county of Humboldt was found to have overstepped its bounds, to have deliberately mislead the court and intentionally concealed evidence in filings by Deputy County Counsel Blair Angus to wrestle temporary control over Dick Mag-

ney’s treatment away from his wife. An independent court investigator called the county’s actions “inhumane” and “appalling.” A law professor described the case as “disturbing.” Allison Jackson, the attorney who represented the Magneys, said it was simply “unfathomable.” A panel of appellate court justices did not mince words in a recent decision holding the county of Humboldt responsible

ions of the primary physician because that evidence does not accord with the agency’s own agenda,” the opinion states. “No reasonable person, let alone a governmental agency, would have pursued such a course.” Meanwhile, the county continues to dig in its heels in the case despite the judicial rebukes. Last month, county counsel filed a letter asking the California Supreme Court to depublish the appellate opinion. “This was a difficult case for all involved, with no easy answers and no winners,” county spokesperson Sean Quincey said. “While we respectfully disagree with the court’s findings, we do not intend to re-argue the case in the court of public opinion. — First District Court of Appeal published opinion Due to privacy laws and regulations, we are unable to comment further.” for the attorney’s fees that Judy Magney incurred while challenging the forced two decades medical treatment of her husband. before arriving at St. Joseph Hospital, the “We cannot subscribe to a scenario Magneys had been celebrating the start of where a governmental agency acts to their new life together. overturn the provisions of a valid advance Mutual friends set the couple up during directive by presenting the court with an a party in 1992.

cards for them. They hit it off right away. While they initially lived 375 miles apart — with Judy in Long Beach and Dick in Mountain View — they visited each other over the ensuring weeks. Within six months they exchanged vows in an Anaheim wedding chapel. On their honeymoon, the couple drove up the California coast and stopped in Humboldt County, where Dick Magney had ventured before on camping trips. He made another proposal to his new bride: Let’s move here. “I said, ‘Sure,’” Judy Magney recalled during a recent interview in Jackson’s office. “I was ready.” By January of 1993, they were settling into their modest home in Carlotta with enough property for Dick Magney’s many collections, which ranged from the wood stoves he worked on as a side job to 1950s travel trailers. With the kind of quiet timbre to her voice that is normally reserved for libraries, Judy Magney became more animated as she described her husband of 23 years who died in October of 2015, one month past his 74th birthday. He had, Judy Magney noted with a smile, American Pickers “tendencies,” recounting the time he called her at work because he had found a door from a submarine. He was so excited he could barely speak. “He had cars, too,” she said, adding that one of his prized possessions was a black Jaguar sports car, a picture of which he kept in his wallet, while he kept Judy’s displayed in the vehicle. “Oh gosh, he had a lot of hobbies,” Judy Magney said, adding her husband was also a gifted painter. Every year he grew his own corn so he could use the stalks for Halloween decorations. Both born-again Christians, the couple shared a strong belief in their faith and a love for working with their hands. For her part, Judy Magney is an avid baker who enjoys sewing her own clothes. A self-described “stubborn Swede,” Dick Magney arrived in the United States by ship with his family at 5 years old. The Navy veteran liked peanut butter, fast cars and going out on the ocean. A World War II movie buff, his favorite film was Tora! Tora! Tora! — the historic reenactment of the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor.

all of his underlining medical conditions were treated in a “full-court press,” according to court documents. In the unlikely event Dick Magney would recover, Phan believed the prognosis was a “really terrible quality of life.” Adult Protective Services assigned public health nurse Heather Ringwald to investigate the call. She spoke with Dick Magney, whom she reported to be confused, as well as Phan, who told her that she agreed with the course of palliative care decided in consultation with other doctors, the patient and his wife. Judy Magney provided Ringwald with a copy of her husband’s written advance care directive, which specified that he did not want his life prolonged by non-beneficial treatment. Ringwald admitted in testimony, according to the appellate court, that she “personally disagreed” with Phan and that Dick and Judy Magney around the time they met in 1992 she and her supervisors decided to “chalPhoto courtesy of Judy Magney lenge” the doctor’s clinical assessment of Dick Magney’s condition and his mental capacity to choose palliative care. “He told me once that wished he’d To have all those additional things go on The county has asserted there were been born 100 ago,” his wife said. “He liked was horrible.

But when Deputy County Counsel Blair Angus filed a petition with the court to force treatment in March of 2015, there was no mention of Phan — Dick Magney’s treating physician and the designated medical authority under the Health Care Decisions Law — nor her findings that further treatment was futile. Instead, the county presented what the appellate court later — First District Court of Appeal published opinion described as an “appallingly inadequate” grim.

The Public Guardian’s petition for conservatorship that followed — basically a request to take control of Dick Magney’s financial and medical decisions — was briefly granted before being denied by a judge in May of 2015, four months after Dick Magney entered the hospital. While a Humboldt County Superior Court judge denied Judy Magney’s request for attorney’s fees, he chided the county for withholding the information about Phan and noted the temporary order might not have been issued if those details had been included. “Given the basic and fundamental rights involved,” the judge wrote, the court “would expect the information received from Dr. Phan, a hospital physician caring for Mr. Magney, to be provided to the Court when the temporary order was sought.”

When Judy Magney’s request

for attorney’s fees landed before the First District Court of Appeal, it issued a scathing opinion in November, describing the county’s actions as “beyond the pale.” The court’s panel of three judges also took the step of publishing its decision — something done in only 10 percent of the cases that come before the appellate court — meaning the opinion became citable case law in California. Calling the county’s authority to have even petitioned the court to compel treatment under the state’s Health Care Decision Law “questionable,” the panel’s opinion outlined why the justices concluded that “Humboldt deliberately misled the trial court and made what could be called a “fraudulent” showing of evidence in the appeal. Using phrases like “lack of candor,” the panel found that Angus — the county’s deputy counsel — seemed to have the view “that if Humboldt needed to be duplicitous to get an order compelling treatment, so be it.” “In sum, Humboldt was not merely negligent in preparing its petition and request for an order compelling medical treatment under the Health Care Decisions Law; it knowingly and deliberately misrepresented both the law and the facts to the trial court,” the opinion states. “We would find such conduct troubling in any case. In the instant context we find it profoundly disturbing.” The county never took action regarding the allegations that Dick Magney

had possibly been neglected, and, the appellate court noted, the county never presented “any competent and admissible evidence” that any neglect had occurred. The opinion goes on to state that “Humboldt clearly lost sight of the fact that the Health Care Decisions Law does not provide a forum to debate the wisdom of a particular individual’s health care choices” and that advance health care “instructions remain operative after a loss of capacity.” “While it may have been Humboldt’s view that further medical treatment was in Mr. Magney’s ‘best interest,’ that was not consistent with his instructions or stated personal values — all of which he set forth when he indisputably had capacity to make health care choices and none of which Humboldt ever discussed or directed the trial court’s attention to in its removal petition or application for an order compelling treatment,” the opinion states. David Levine, a professor at UC Hastings College of the Law, said the decision shows the panel of judges was clearly “very disappointed in (Angus’) conduct throughout the case.” “This opinion contains some harsh language but when a court believes it has been so deliberately misled by an attorney, the written opinion can sometimes be withering,” he said. “It is unusual, but not unique.” Based on his reading of the opinion, Levine said he’s unsure why the case got to the point it did. The law professor said Dick Magney’s condition — an older man with serious health problems — was exactly the type of situation the Health Care Decision Law was designed to address: allowing indi-

viduals to decide for themselves whether to receive life-prolonging treatment, and for that decision to remain in effect even when they could no longer speak for themselves. “Everybody here is on board except an outside third party, and they’re not even family members,” Levine said. “It’s a very unusual case. … An outlier.” He also noted that Angus made numerous “obvious” mistakes in the original proceeding then continued to adhere to them in the appeal. Angus, meanwhile, appears to be under consideration for a Humboldt County Superior Court judgeship based on letters of query sent to local attorneys by the governor’s office. “I would hope that this opinion would get substantial attention in the course of that process,” Levine said. “In itself, it may not be disqualifying, but it is certainly disturbing and deserves careful weighing.”

When Jackson, Judy Magney’s

attorney, first received the case back in March of 2015, she thought it was all a simple misunderstanding. A former prosecutor, she had worked with Adult Protective Services in the past and was well acquainted with Angus, a former public defender. Surely someone would realize what had gone wrong and correct it, Jackson recalled thinking at the time. That’s not what happened, Jackson said. Instead the county would double down, then triple down and now — nearly two years later with the recent request to depublish the appellate opinion — quadruple down while continuing to cite what the court has already disregarded as “appallingly inadequate” and

“unsupported factual assertions.” That includes once again raising the never pursued or substantiated allegations of neglect, with County Counsel Jeffrey Blanck going so far as to claim that the county did what it did “to ensure Ms. Magney did not deliberately hasten her husband’s, Dick Magney’s, death against his express wishes by allowing doctors to withdraw treatment for the life-threatening medical condition created by her neglect” in the county’s depublication request. “They’re creating their own universe just to justify their civil rights violation,” Jackson said. The case took a devastating toll on the Magneys, she said, noting at one point the county wouldn’t even allow Judy Magney to be told how her husband was and what was going on with his care. “The emotional costs, I can’t begin to calculate, but she didn’t give up,” Jackson said. “The financial costs. I can’t begin to calculate that either, but she didn’t give up. She didn’t give up because this was her husband.” Dick Magney died in a skilled nursing facility eight months after the county first began efforts to take control over his health care decisions, living long enough to see them denied — at one point testifying in his own conservatorship case that he was angry at the accusations being made against his wife. He described her as simply “the best,” saying, “She’s a great cook, and must have the patience of Job to put up with someone like me.” The appellate court’s scathing opinion about the county’s action came a little over a year after he died having spent his final months in a legal tug of war over

LOVE LIGHTS his medical decisions and end-of-life wishes. While the county of Humboldt argued in its letter seeking depublication that the precedent set by the appeals court’s opinion would tie the hands of other investigators looking into future cases of abuse, Levine disagreed. The law professor said the ruling is extremely helpful in laying out the path that should be taken in the event an advance care directive is being challenged, as well as who has the authority to do so. “Humboldt is really trying to minimize the embarrassment flowing from this opinion,” Levine said of the depublication request. The ruling should, he noted, be used as a primer in training abuse investigators as a “cautionary tale” that says: “Don’t let this happen to you. Follow these steps.” Noting the difficult job involved in investigating abuse cases, Levine said there needs to be an acknowledgement that sometimes mistakes are made. According to the county, Adult Protective Services received more 1,000 reports of suspected abuse that had to be investigated between July of 2015 and June of 2016. That being said, Levine noted, there are questions to be raised about the way the Magneys’ case was handled and why the county is continuing to “double down” on its position. “The nature of investigating abuse cases is you’re going to have to separate out the wheat from the chaff,” he said. “What is it about the personalities that kept this one going?” Jackson said what needs to happen is simple: The county needs to acknowledge what happened, apologize and settle with Judy Magney; the supervisors at APS need to take a hard look at what occurred with their agency; and the Board of Supervisors needs to question the actions of its county counsel office. “The clock,” she said, “is ticking.” For her part, Judy Magney said she is in a much better place than she was a year ago. If the case helps prevent someone else from enduring what happened to her and her husband, “that would be great.” Right now she’s clearing out the country property where she and Dick started their new life together all those years ago. It helps, she said, to stay busy. “I don’t want to stay in Carlotta anymore,” she said, “now that he’s not there.” ●

he sweet smell of simmering grits wafts through the kitchen. As they cook, the grits gently bubble, pop and thicken into a golden, luscious porridge. They are made even more heavenly with cream, cheese and roasted green chilies. My grits in no way resemble the first bowl of grits I ate just out of college. Yes, I was thankful my honey (now husband) made breakfast, but instant grits are a far contrast from ones that are slow cooked. True grits made from course ground corn, as opposed to instant grits, have more bran and germ and take a tad longer to cook, but their nuttier flavor and texture is unmatched. So, like many dishes, grits have jumped from his repertoire to mine. The two recipes for grits that follow reflect our household — with a bit of soul food and Mexican influence. In case you did not know it, corn is indigenous to Mexico and eventually became a favorite crop throughout the Americas and beyond. It was especially popular among early Southern pioneers, who cultivated more corn than cotton.

A note before you get started with these recipes: Finding stoneground white grits in Humboldt might be tough. If you plan ahead, you can order some artisanal stoneground online. I’m not that organized so I get my grits from the natural food store in the bulk section (it’s usually the Bob’s Red Mill brand) marked as grits or polenta. Yes, you read that right: polenta. If you’re scratching your head, it’s completely understandable. The labeling is inconsistent. For intellectual purposes, know that one of the primary differences between the two is that grits are usually made from white corn, while polenta is made from yellow corn. They come from different corn varieties; the latter version is a tad nuttier. Some authorities also distinguish the two by the size of the grind, grits being smaller. However, both grits and polenta are available in fine, medium and coarse grinds. Since I’m not a purist and find the difference between the two insignificant, I opt instead for what’s more readily available. When they are gussied up with spicy green chili and cheese or made killer

Sauté diced bacon in a large skillet on medium-high heat until the edges are barely browned (do not cook until crispy). Remove the bacon and drain on paper towels. Set aside. Leave a thin layer of bacon grease in the bottom of the skillet, if it’s not enough, add some oil. Over medium-high heat, sauté the mushrooms for about 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Lightly salt them and add the shrimp, stirring frequently. When the shrimp are about half cooked, add the garlic and cooked bacon. Sauté until the shrimp are pink and firm (do not overcook or they will become rubbery). Add 2 teaspoons lemon juice, hot sauce, green onions, parsley, salt and pepper.

Winter Drinking by Nora Mounce

2017 has made itself at home in Humboldt County with fl irtatious snow flurries dusting coastal porches and sidewalks. In case you missed the white stuff, a solid 24 hours of rain hammered home the reality that winter is here. Humboldt is a geographically isolated county, effectively walled in by the Klamath Mountains to the east, towering redwoods above and below, and the roiling Pacific to the west. This geographic quarantine means that when our national parks empty of selfiesnapping tourists each season, the quiet of Humboldt winters can be ominous. Luckily for us, several local distillers and brewers understand the need for fortitude in the grey, post-holiday weeks of January. If cabin fever has your number, put on your warmest puff y and head out for a tumbler of local spirits or a seasonal brew. Sip slowly while enjoying the peaceful quiet of Humboldt County’s winter.

Winter Break Walking Tour

Art in the HSU library By Gabrielle Gopinath artbeat@northcoastjournal.com

inter break in a college town is a good time to seek out exhibition spaces that may fly under the radar during busier times. This month, I revisit the art on display at the Humboldt State University Library. Not everyone realizes that paintings, drawings and sculptures mingle with the books that populate the library’s three floors. If you glean information from the library’s website in advance, it becomes easy to plot the artworks as destinations in their own right, or as waypoints on a private walking tour. The shortlist of must-see artworks that follows only represents a small sample of the works on display but it should be enough to get you started. If you haven’t done this before, it is worth your while. If you haven’t done this recently, you’ll find positive changes in the wake of renovations that took place in summer of 2016. For example, the canoe crafted by Hupa and Yurok artist and traditional boatbuilder George Blake that I wrote about in a previous column was moved from the ground-floor site it had occupied since the late 1980s to a new location on the second floor, with better lighting and a custom-built pedestal. If you’re a regular, you’ll miss seeing the most iconic artwork in the library’s collection, the show-stopping Martin Wong triptych “Portrait of Bill McWhorter in Convertible with Boy and Dog,” which normally hangs to the left as you enter. It’s out on loan as part of the Bronx Museum of the Arts’ Martin Wong retrospective Human Instamatic, due to return next month. For now “Colorful Clouds Spread on Mountain,” a painting by Po Y. Chung, hangs in its place instead. On the north side of the second floor, don’t miss the statues in bleached redwood that Bruno Groth collectively titled “The Unfoldment.” These are larger-thanlife figures of tall men and women the color of bone, with chiseled jawlines and rudimentary facial features. Some sit erect with great dignity; others stand in pairs

or group themselves in uncommunicative triads. Their physical attitudes seem modern, as do their rationalized and streamlined contours; this mid-century aesthetic is borne out Bruno Groth’s bleached redwood sculptures.

you will appreciate the final work in this week’s column — the late 19th century portrait of von Humboldt that hangs in the hallway on the library’s first floor. The figure has been copied by a relatively unskilled, possibly self-trained hand from a widely circulated portrait engraving: The subject’s pose, facial features, expressions and attire are essentially identical from the bust up, right down to the inlaid design of the decoration prominently positioned beneath Humboldt’s lapel. Humboldt’s hand, positioned rather clumsily and incongruously over a scrap of writing paper, appears to have been loosely transposed from another source — perhaps the wellknown 1859 portrait of Humboldt by Julius Schrader at the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The portrait depicts Humboldt in advanced age — when the scientist’s epic journeys lay behind him. The unknown artist compensated for this by placing his subject in front of a sketchily envisioned ridge intended to evoke the slopes of Chimborazo, the Ecuadorian peak where a 33-year-old von Humboldt climbed in 1802 to an altitude of 19,286 feet, a world record at the time. These and many other works of art can be seen on long-term display at the Humboldt State University Library. For a list of artists whose work is currently on display and location information for individual pieces, go to library.humboldt.edu/about/art. l Humboldt State University Library is open Monday through Friday from 8 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. through January 15.

Setlist

For Two Nights Only! By Andy Powell

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

Thursday If you’ve been holed up since New Year’s trying to stay dry through our winter storms, you’ve got a full weekend of events to check out. You can start out tonight at the Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m. for free “alternative folk/ rock” tunes from Cygne. Local poet Jerry Martien will get some musical support tonight at the Arcata Playhouse from local friend Fred Neighbor along with the heavy-hitting Thad Beckman Trio at 8 p.m. A touring musician for 30 plus years, Thad brings the roots and blues to the singer-songwriter genre. He’s been a hired gun for Bo Diddley, B.B. King and Albert Collins, and has shared the stage with The Band and Emmylou Harris, to name a few. So you know this guy isn’t messing around. He’s bringing his band to the Playhouse for two nights and for only $15 a show. Jumping back in time one hour, you’ll find the godfathers of ska-punk, the Voodoo Glow Skulls, returning to Eureka at 7 p.m. They’ll be sharing this punk bill — at a fitting venue, the Eureka Veteran’s Hall — with Buck-O-Nine out of San Diego, who’ve been playing together since ‘91, and from Australia, The Porkers, who are celebrating 30 years as a band. It’s $20 for this punk fest. I’m trying to imagine any punkers torn between seeing the above-mentioned show or heading over to Hum Brews for some “slamgrass” courtesy of said-grass pioneers, Leftover Salmon. Always a favorite of the Humboldt jamgrass scene, LoS is joined by local heroes the Absynth Quartet, whom you may have just heard on NYE. $30 for this 9 p.m. show.

Friday Back in Blue Lake, get your ears ready for some “eclectic acoustic mayhem” courtesy of your space pilot for the evening, Kaptain Kirk’s Kosmic Koncoction. As is custom, this Mad River Brewery Tap Room show will start at 6 p.m. and will be free. I’ve been hearing from a few folks about the Bryan Sutton Band, in town tonight opening up The Old Steeple’s Winter Season in Ferndale. Bryan’s no slouch on the

guitar. Having won a Grammy playing with Doc Watson and getting to play with the likes of Dolly Parton and Ricky Skaggs, he’s an immense talent to come to our neck Flat Five plays the Old Steeple on Tuesday, Jan 17 at 8 p.m. Photo by Paul Beattie of the woods (he’s also played with a plethora of other big names in the country music They’re on the stage again tonight at 8 p.m. world, some whose music I won’t let refor $15. Miss Leftover Salmon and Absynth flect poorly on Bryan). He’s also a nine-time Quartet last night at Hum Brews? They’re International Bluegrass Music Association on the stage again tonight at 9 p.m. for $30. Guitar Player of the Year, so there’s that, too. He and his band take the stage at 7:30 Some might say the more sane of the p.m. and you should bring $30 to get in. DeMark brothers reached out to let me Local musician and storyteller Jeff DeMark know that the Honky Tonk Detours will has gone crazy — which won’t surprise be at one of their usual joints tonight, the many — and has lived to tell about it (perMad River Brewery Tap Room, at 6 p.m. haps more surprising). He’ll be performing for free. Paul also mentioned that Mark his show “Writing My Way Out of AdoJeffares of The Trouble — now comfortlescence” tonight at the Humboldt Light able in his dad jeans — has become a Opera Company’s The Space. He’s perfull-time member of the Detours. If I were formed this show across the country so it’s Paul (I’m not) I’d say (he didn’t) check this a treat to catch it locally. I’ve not seen the show out instead of the weird one-time full show before but I’ve heard enough of nudist hippie down at HLOC’s The Space Jeff’s stories regarding bad acid trips, hangin Sunnybrae. That’s right, Jeff DeMark’s ing out with Bob Dylan and being hauled back at it again tonight (more details off by the cops in his birthday suit to want above). Also at 7:30 p.m., the Fortuna to check this out. Jeff politely declined to Concert Series presents one of the world’s be interviewed for this column but he did premier Celtic harpists, Patrick Bell, at the provide me with the following self portrait Fortuna Monday Club. Pay $10 for this capexplaining that this “big nose storyteller, tivating show. For you Talking Heads fans now eligible for the senior discount will who always wondered why your hill-living tell wacked-out stories of lying to a onereggae friends couldn’t quite get into the eyed nun, stealing a car and breaking into Heads, tonight might be your chance to a nudist camp, going to a rock fest in the convince them. Hum Brews is hosting The middle of Illinois and ending up babbling Talking Dreads tonight (see where this on the outer asteroid belt of psychedelic is going?). At 9:30 p.m. catch this Caribconsciousness. He’s a bratwurst bohemian, bean take on the Head’s music. It’ll be chillin’ but still occasionally grillin’. Let him recognizable enough to you and it’ll have drop some storytelling science on your reggae rhythms to relax the dance moves young-ass skulls.” I couldn’t have intrigued a bit. It’s $10 to get in and if anyone has an you more myself. The show starts at 7:30 oversized Rasta-colored suit, you should p.m. and is $15. Miss the Thad Beckman get in for free. Trio last night at The Arcata Playhouse?

Saturday

Tuesday Fans of vocal harmonies (who isn’t?), you’ve got a real treat tonight at the Arcata Playhouse. Chicago-based “pop vocal super-group” The Flat Five is on the road supporting their debut album It’s a World of Love and Hope. As I repeat that album title to myself a few times and wonder what world these folks are from, I have to assume that they are a little more optimistic than I am. Also far more talented. In their singular capacities, they’ve played music with folks like Neko Case, The Decemberists, Andrew Bird, Mavis Staples, Iron and Wine, and The New Pornographers, as a quick snapshot. Kudos to them for mentioning that this album was “100% band-financed,” which leads me to believe that there was no begging on Kickstarter or anything like that. Since they didn’t hit you up to help them record their album, you can now give them money for the album if you like it. That’s $16 for students, $18 for everyone else, and the show starts around 8 p.m. 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. l Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Album of the Week Show on KWPT 100.3 FM Tuesdays at 6 p.m. Paul or Jeff? You decide.

Not to brag, but during the winter months, Humboldt County’s gorgeous coastal rivers boast more steelhead than anywhere else in California. It stands to reason that a three-day event held four years ago in Mad River would spawn the three-month, countywide celebration that is Humboldt Steelhead Days, making its run Jan. 1 through Mar. 21. The festival includes a fishing and photo contest, special access tours (on private, tribal and timber lands), food, fun and family and educational events. Regional happenings kick off this weekend and culminate with an awards celebration and carnival on April 1. We’ve reeled in some upcoming highlights here:

Campy black-and-white horror/sci-fi films of the ’50s and ’60s provide just a bit of a fright but mostly ghostly good fun. From William Castle, B-movie mogul and pioneer of the horror movie gimmick (House on Haunted Hill with Emergo! and The Tingler with Percepto!), comes 13 Ghosts (1960), a silly fright fest about a displaced family that inherits a spooky mansion, showing at the Arcata Theatre Lounge on Jan. 18 at 6 p.m. (free w/$5 food/bev purchase). Somewhere in bowels of the mansion is the late uncle’s fortune — along with 12 ghosts who need a 13th in order to free them — and a sinister lurker seeking the hidden treasure. The film’s gimmick at the time of its release (Illusion-O!) was special ghost-viewing glasses — similar to the uncle’s invention in the film. Castle appears in the beginning of film to explain that viewers who believe in ghosts should look through the red lens (the ghosts appeared more vivid) and skeptics should look through the blue lens (ghosts barely visible). The film has been remastered so that the special ghost viewers aren’t needed, and some versions of the film have been edited to remove the distracting USE VIEWER NOW and REMOVE VIEWER NOW text that appears on the screen. Glasses or no, there are plenty of laughable moments in this one. Catch Castle’s wink to The Wizard of Oz’s Margaret Hamilton (minus green face paint and maniacal cackle), who plays the mansion’s housemaid, when young Buck repeatedly refers to someone in the house being a real witch. —Kali Cozyris

La La Land and Hidden Figures By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

LA LA LAND. There was a moment of breath-holding, a couple of years ago, after Damien Chazelle’s Whiplash (2014) had finished taking the world by storm, leaving the great J.K. Simmons holding an Oscar and, likely, more than a few drum sets gathering dust in garages and back bedrooms. That movie — so competent, so focused and self-assured — felt like it signaled the arrival of a distinct and original creative voice, someone with something to say and the skills necessary to make that something heard. Perhaps more to the point, Whiplash felt fully formed: refined but raw when it needed to be, stylish without pretense, percussive and propulsive, but also painfully authentic, with just enough hope and redemption showing at the edges. In other words, it didn’t feel like a first effort. (In fairness, I suppose it wasn’t, as Chazelle adapted it from his own short of the same title, but you get the point.) And whenever a writer/director bursts forth with such an accomplished, successful debut, questions arise. Did s/he run the creative tank dry in the race to finish the first feature? Was it a fluke, or a miraculous confluence of cast and crew? Did a landslide of accolades obscure the movie’s flaws, or is it as good as it seemed? Behind all of it is the Creator, the mind behind the story and the blood-and-bones person who came to the set every day and coaxed the vision on the page into life. To make one genuinely good feature-length movie is an accomplishment in itself; for one’s first feature to succeed artistically, commercially and in the eyes of one’s peers is unicorn rare. In addition to the attendant stresses of making the thing in the first place, of weathering the inevitable criticism and disingenuous praise and invasive attention, such success leaves the now-vaunted Creator in the unenviable position of figuring out What To Do Next. Not everybody survives this stage of success, creatively or literally. Chazelle,

32 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Jan. 12, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

Hey, girl. A return to the mid-century Hollywood musical seems like the proper response to the rise of neo-McCarthyism to me, too. though, has moved forward with a degree of composure that belies his relative youth and, hopefully, speaks to the notion that he may well be an Important New Voice. As he did with jazz in Whiplash, Chazelle again innovates by digging into what might be considered an arcane medium. If you had asked me, even a month ago, I would likely have told you that the Hollywood musical had died in some sad bungalow in the hills, coughing delicately into a monogrammed silk handkerchief, alone and unwanted, decades ago. As usual, this pronouncement speaks as much (more) to my general dislike of the form as to its inevitable decline in popularity. As it turns out, though, the problem with the musical wasn’t the form but, as in most things, a lack of creativity. La La Land lifts up all the exciting visual and theatrical elements, supports them with emotional authenticity and fearless performance and proves: 1) maybe musicals aren’t so bad, after all; 2) Chazelle really does have something to say. In a candy-colored, wintertime alternate Los Angeles, Mia (Emma Stone) serves coffee on the Warner Bros. back lot, happy to just be in the environs of cinematic history but hopeful that she’ll make it as an actress. (The cruelties of the audition process are revealed in a brief, punishing scene.) Sebastian (Ryan Gosling) laments the shuttering of his favorite jazz club, struggling to toe the line and play standards as an invisible cocktail lounge pianist. He, too, harbors dreams — of opening his own club and fostering real jazz in the heart of LA. After a series of near-misses, Mia and Sebastian connect for a song and dance routine against the setting sun and eventually begin a romance that nourishes each of them,

psychically and creatively. So far, so good, so boilerplate; but La La Land takes a turn here that not only makes the movie ring true emotionally but serves to elevate the movie beyond the simple strictures of format. Our protagonists’ dreams come true but not in a doves flying, chorus swelling, tied up in ribbons kind of a way. Instead, Chazelle subverts the expected, infusing the third act with the sort of emotional difficulty created by making real-life choices. Granted, I would watch a two-hour cat food commercial if it starred Stone and Gosling. My bias notwithstanding, La La Land really is as good as everyone has been saying. The leads (triple threats, both of them, and Gosling learned to play piano for the role) are irreplaceable and riveting, the look is lush and gorgeous and enveloping, and the song-and-dance numbers simultaneously subvert and uphold reality in a sublimely giddy fashion; it’s movie magic and that’s for real. PG13. 128M. BROADWAY. HIDDEN FIGURES. So yeah, I teared up in this one. Again. There may be something wrong with me. But were it not for indelible performances by leads Taraji P. Henson, Janelle Monae and Octavia Spencer, and buoyant original songs by Pharrell Williams, I don’t think it would have left much of an impression. In 1961, a young NASA struggles to catch up with the Soviets in the space race. Into the closed-room, male whiteness (gross) of the organization steps Katerine Goble (Henson), a gifted mathematician who may be the only person capable of the computations required to put an American astronaut into orbit. Alongside her stand fledgling engineer Mary Jackson (Monae) and born leader Dorothy Vaughan

(Spencer). Drawing strength from each other, the three women work to surmount the not insubstantial obstacles before them, all the while contributing mightily to the greater national effort. Hidden Figures tells a compelling and vital story, but in its style-less, guile-less treatment of it, something is lost. The struggles these women faced come off as mild, toothless; even the violence of the Civil Rights movement playing out in the background hardly makes an impact. Still, I am heartened to see a movie about women of color succeeding so resoundingly at the box office. PG. 127M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.
