Would You Like a Danish?

Editor: The Danish government has scoffed at President Trump’s reported interest in buying Greenland. Though we don’t have more recent tax information, he lost $1.17 billion in just the years 1985 through 1994.

The president obviously isn’t the business wizard that has been portrayed. The Danish government may wish to reconsider dismissing out of hand President Trump’s interest. With a skilled Copenhagen-based real estate agent, the Danes could likely get top dollar or better.

A breathless letters diatribe, “The Big Show” (Mailbox, Aug. 22), against a host of boogeymen, including the media and by extension, the damned hoopies running the North Coast Journal skew a few facts in defense of our stalwart President. They are certainly entitled to their political opinion … unlike in Russia. I do suggest that before the letter writer blows a head gasket, they may wish to lower their blood pressure with a tasty Danish pastry. Next best thing to purchasing the world’s second biggest island.

Sue ’em!

Editor: The long, winding, seaboard highway connecting Eureka to Arcata is the road most at risk from global warming in the entire state of California. It’ll cost an estimated $31 million to patch up that stretch of U.S. Highway 101 until about 2030 or so, at which point those patches will probably need replacing.

Experts estimate that Humboldt County will need to spend a total of about $2.5 billion to stop large, populated parts of Humboldt County from being flooded.

Several cities and counties in California have filed suit in the past two years against Big Gas/Big Oil, including Richmond, Santa Cruz, San Francisco, Oakland, and Marin and San Mateo counties. And that’s just in California.

You can find a list here: www.payupclimatepolluters.org/cases/ Some places brought their lawsuits solely via the city or county government, like San Francisco. Others were assisted in their efforts by a law firm focusing on this kind of work.

The law firm probably is doing the work on contingency, as they ask for attorney’s fees under California Code of Civil Procedure 1021.5 in their complaint. [“A court may award attorneys’ fees to a successful party against one or more opposing parties in any action which has re-

Marin County sued Big Oil with the help of a Bay Area firm and it anticipates half as much destruction as we do, with a larger budget to boot. Maybe Humboldt County should sue Big Oil to help offset the cost of preparing for global warming?

Save the Spartina!

Editor: The recent Coastal Commission hearing in Eureka was indeed fascinating (“Ground Zero,” Aug. 15). As part of the Caltrans approval, the Coastal Commission demanded Caltrans study sea level rise and report to the commission every year on how it plans to address it.

What I found particularly ironic was the construction project included the filling of wetlands, which was to be mitigated by digging up a plant called Spartina on Indian Island. Spartina only recently (2005) was “speculated” to be non-native. Up until then, Bureau of Land Management documents considered it a native plant.

A recent research paper stated Spartina is better suited than the “native” plants to adapt to sea level rise and listed multiple reasons.

The irony continues in the fact that Indian Island is in the process of being given back to the local Wiyot Tribe and is home to the largest egret rookery in the country.

The side irony there is the splendid rookery is also dependent on a “non-native” tree, the Monterey Cypress.

Other information not provided to the commission is that the targeted Spartina actually helps build coastal topography by collecting water borne sediment. The giant rototiller and/or herbicides used to kill the Spartina will dislodge collected sediment and ultimately lower the island.

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 29, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

Much of the dislodged sediments will be carried away with the changing tides and likely end up clogging nearby marinas, which the Harbor District is having tremendous angst in trying to keep dredged.

When Caltrans presents its annual report on how it is addressing sea level rise, it will need to report on the impacts the wetland mitigation measures are having on an island recently given back to the native people that suffered a horrible massacre, which is now being eroded away because a plant was only recently “speculated” to be non-native.

You cannot make this stuff up.

The Astrologist Was Wrong!

Editor: The astrologist Rob Brezsny says that putting plastic in the recycling bin “makes it far less likely that it will end up in the oceans” (“Free Will Astrology,” Aug. 22).

Far less likely than what? Throwing it in the bushes? Well, yeah, maybe. Throwing it in the trash? Actually, no. If you throw a piece of plastic in the trash in the United States, it will almost certainly end up buried in a landfill. If you throw it into the recycling bin, it may very well end up in a mountain of assorted recyclables and trash in an Asian country where poor people comb through it. This mountain could be situated right on the banks of a river.

Almost half of the plastic in the ocean is related to the fishing industry. Over half of the rest of it flows from just 10 rivers in the world — eight of them in Asia. But much of that plastic originates here.

The recycling industry is in crisis largely because of the way we mix together all different kinds of plastics, glass, aluminum, etc.

Not to mention trash and garbage. All of

this crap is bundled together and shipped to Asia where its fate can be chaotic.

When it comes to plastics, No. 1, No. 2 and No. 5 are the types most likely to be actually recycled, although there’s no guarantee even then. I still believe in recycling but recycling programs should be drastically re-vamped.

Martha Walden, Westhaven Editor: Heads up people. We have a recycling crisis. China quit taking our trash-laden recycling more than a year ago. According to Zero Waste Humboldt, a couple of years ago the only plastics that are recycled in the U.S. are No. 1, No. 2 and No. 5. We have not built the infrastructure to recycle any more than that. So all the plastic you throw in your recycling bin is mostly trash.

Yes, it really is.

You might feel good putting it in the recycling bin but somewhere down the line, right now, it gets thrown away. So let’s start putting it where it belongs. In the trash. It is a good way to come to grips with how much we really create. And with that awareness will come change. Support local recycling efforts in every possible way. We can’t worry about other countries but we can be an example. Your neighbors might already be getting real, are you?

You have more power than you know.

Start using it.

It’s Still Racist Editor: I read with both interest and amusement the Week in Weed commentary, “Illicit Markets and Cultural Insensitivity” by Thadeus Greenson (Aug. 15).

First, as regards the continued discussion of the origins and intentions of the term “marijuana,” let me note that I am a proud affiliate of Humboldt State University’s Humboldt Institute for Interdisciplinary Marijuana Research, which is ironic to the extent that many contend that academia is the veritable citadel for “social justice warriors.” HIIMR has discussed the controversy about the term “marijuana” and decided thus far to stick with the linguistic/political record on that term, largely as described in your cited article

by Grant Scott-Goforth (“Marijuana isn’t Racist,” June 9, 2016).

Second, as a cultural anthropologist who studied Mexican farmworkers in the western U.S. for almost three decades, I can assure your readers that the terms “illegal” and “illicit” are both fraught with controversy to a far greater degree than “black” markets. Witness the debate on what term to use for those people who enter

and work in the U.S. without permission from our government. “Illegal immigrant” is almost as verboten as “illegal alien” by a large and growing portion of the population.

Therefore, third, let me suggest popular alternatives to “black,” “illegal” and “illicit.”

With tongue firmly in cheek, I personally prefer to refer to the non-regulated market as either “the people’s market” or “the duty-free market!”

I believe that both are easily understood, historically accurate and rather enlightening regarding the ever-shifting role of the state vis-a-vis this particular plant.

Do These People Not Matter?

Editor: Three mass shootings in a week, all committed by white men. Headline after headline about white nationalism, domestic terrorism, men who hate women, white racists, Trump’s bigotry and, flowing through it all, the numbers: By the Journal’s own count, 257 mass shootings in America this year (“31 Points,” Aug. 8).

The implication being that crazed white men, with easy, legal access to guns, are shooting the continent into blood-spattered rags.

The statistics, however, tell a different story. Of those 257, “mass shootings,” the overwhelming majority have been gang-related, black-on-black violence, concentrated in a relatively few, small areas.

I look at the numbers and am appalled: More than 257 mass shootings in America just this year. Three or more victims per shooting. No media attention. Do these people not matter?

I say to everyone who wants to throw that “257 mass shootings” statistic in our

Terry Torgerson

face: When you’ve put as much effort into finding out why the black people in this country are killing each other at such a horrific rate, and shown as much desire to end that carnage as you’ve put into denying that it’s happening, and calling anyone who brings it up a racist, why, then, and only then, will I listen to all your bullshit about “white male gunmen.”

Black lives do matter. All of our lives matter. We’re Americans, not Africans, Europeans, South Americans, Australians or Asians.

Look around you. Who is your family? The USA is a melting pot. Off the top of my head, I can think of family members who are white, black, Chinese, Japanese-Hawaiian, Mexican, Ecuadorian, Native American. How can anyone afford to hate a race? At the same time, how can we ignore a problem simply because it’s considered “racist” to bring it up?

Supes Pass Housing Plan Staff hopes to have tiny house ordinance before board by year’s end

By Freddy Brewster

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

T

he Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously, with Third District Supervisor Mike Wilson absent, on Aug. 20 to approve its Housing Element update, a bold new plan to address what county staff has identified as an affordable housing and homelessness “crisis.”

Drafted by the county Planning and Building Department, the update is designed to govern the county’s housing development over the next eight years. Past elements have repeatedly left Humboldt County well short of its target numbers of new units for low-income residents to the point that county staff reports that 70 percent of county residents cannot currently afford the median home price of roughly $310,000.

That’s why, County Planning and Building Director John Ford explained, the new element takes bold steps, including provisions that could allow for tiny home villages, make it easier for homeowners to add second units and see the county become involved in the development and management of low-income housing developments.

At the Aug. 20 meeting, Ford told supervisors that the current update highlights that the “standard way of preparing Housing Elements, which is to identify a zoned property to build housing, has failed to work and that something different needs to be done.” Ford went on

to say that, under the new element, the county will start to step in to fill the gaps where the private sector has fallen short — hinting at a possible referendum on Article 34 of the California Constitution, which requires voter approval for local governments looking to fund low-income housing builds.

One of the implementation measures in the Housing Element update states that the county “shall support and actively lobby for state and/or local initiatives and referendums that seek the repeal of Article 34 of the state Constitution,” which means a possible letter of support for repealing the article from the Board of Supervisors, according to senior planner Michelle Nielsen.

On Dec. 3, state Sens. Ben Allen and Scott Wiener introduced a bill seeking the repeal of Article 34 of the State Constitution.

“California must address its housing, affordability, and homelessness crises,” Allen said in a press release. “And yet we have a decades-old law that creates an unnecessary roadblock for cities who are trying to do right by their constituents.”

Article 34 essentially says local governments may not acquire or build any low rent housing projects unless they first get the approval of “a majority of the qualified electors.” Article 34 has roots right here in Humboldt County. Back in 1950, residents of Eureka collected signatures to try and

Tiny homes, like this one on display at a Tiny House Expo in 2015 hosted by the Affordable Homeless Housing Alternatives, are a central component of the Housing Element update. File stop the building of public housing funded by a New Deal era program. The matter went all the way to the California Supreme Court, which ruled that Eurekans could not block the the housing development from moving forward.

But this triggered a fight and the California Real Estate Association stepped in to say that the building of public housing should be subject to a referendum because it contributes to taxpayer debt.

The organization started a campaign to get a ballot initiative before voters. The campaign used rhetoric that mirrors that of today.

The association said public housing is a form of “socialism” and an attack on American capitalism. The campaign also used racial dog whistles, saying minorities were backing the building of the housing and that public housing that included minorities would bring down property values in the area. The initiative passed statewide and Article 34 of the California State Con-

stitution was adopted Nov. 7, 1950.

But in today’s context, the prospect of the county taking over building low-income housing has been seen as “thinking outside the box” and comes as one of an array of strategies identified to achieve the goals of the 2019 Housing Element, namely creating additional affordable housing throughout the county. If the statewide repeal passes, Humboldt County will “develop, construct or acquire low cost housing,” according to the element.

But if the repeal fails, then Humboldt County will look to bring forward a local initiative that would allow it to move forward with building and acquiring low-rent housing. Nielsen said a similar initiative brought forward in Eureka in 2016 passed, allowing the city to increase its limit on low-income housing from 250 units to 3 percent of the total housing stock in the city.

Betty Chinn: Activist New children’s book profiles Eureka philanthropist

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

I

t’s not a title Betty Chinn ever sought out, or even one she thought fit. In fact, when an author got in touch with Chinn to ask about including her in Girl Activist, a children’s book aimed at inspiring girls to make a positive impact in the world, Chinn wasn’t inclined to do it.

“I thought, ‘Why are you choosing me?

How many people are out there doing good things?’” she said.

But then the woman who has largely dedicated the last 30 years of her life to caring for Eureka’s homeless population thought about what President Barack Obama told her when giving her the Presidential Citizens Medal, the second highest civilian honor in the nation, a handful of years ago.

“He told me, ‘You have a voice. You have to speak up. This is not about Betty — Betty no longer belongs to just you,’” Chinn recalled last week, sitting at a conference table of the homeless day center her foundation opened in 2014.

Chinn agreed to be interviewed by the book’s authors — Louisa Kamps, Susanna Daniel and Michelle Wildgen — and is now one of 40 women profiled in the final copy, which was published

by Downtown Bookworks and hit shelves last month. Chinn said she was stunned when she saw the company she would be keeping in its pages, including Rosa Parks, Eleanor Roosevelt, Jane Goodall and Billy Jean King.

“Look at all those names in there,” she said, noting her chapter comes right before one on Lady Gaga.

“I had no idea who she is,” Chinn said with a laugh.

With the book billing itself as a pathway toward inspiring young women to stand up for their beliefs and mobilize their communities to make a difference, Chinn seemed a natural choice.

“We were focused on activists who were inspired by their own lives and histories and had practical strategies that produced tangible results,” Daniel wrote in an email to the Journal. “Chinn has been outcast and hungry as a child — and she saw children going hungry in an otherwise comfortable community in California. She didn’t simply give money or raise funds, she started cooking and handing meals to homeless men and women, morning, noon and night.”

Chinn has long maintained that her outreach efforts are her passion, a way for her to heal old wounds by doing for others what was never done for her when she was homeless as a child. Born to wealthy, Christian, Western-educated parents in China’s Guangdong province, Chinn and her family were targeted during Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution. Chinn’s father fled the country, her mother was jailed and Chinn’s siblings were sent to labor camps. While Chinn also spent a stint in a labor camp, at 7 years old, she was too young to do the back-breaking work in the rice fields and was kicked The book’s cover. out of the camp and left homeless on the streets. For four years, she found refuge in a garbage dump and foraged for food. Mao’s Red Guard forced Chinn to wear a wooden sign around her neck that read “child of the devil” and forbade anyone from speaking to her. By the time Chinn and three of her siblings fled on foot to Hong Kong, she’d gone mute from the ostracism and deprivation.

After immigrating to the United States, Chinn married a Humboldt State University physics professor, Leung Chinn, settled in Eureka and had two sons. She was volunteering at her sons’ school when she noticed one of their classmates was home-

less, living in a car with her family. She began to pack the girl lunch, then started cooking the family meals, then began cooking for other homeless families.

“Soon,” as the book tells it, “she was feeding hundreds of homeless people every day.”

As we reported in our Sept. 15, 2016 cover story “Prove Them Wrong,” many of Chinn’s early outreach efforts were met with staunch resistance from the local business community, who feared she was enabling the homeless and making the problem worse. She was harassed by the police, berated on street corners and told she was unwelcome in Old Town. In fact, it’s only the last decade that’s seen Chinn hailed as a local hero, and she hasn’t proposed a project without meeting resistance from some.

Chinn said it was important to her that her chapter in Girl Activist highlight how it’s really the local community that has enabled her to do so much, saying its generosity has enabled her to go from feeding people from her own kitchen to where she is now, with a day center, a family shelter and a transitional housing project all run through her foundation. She’s become a “middle man,” she likes to say, between people who need help and others who want to give.

And Chinn’s efforts keep growing.

Sitting in the day center last week, she explained how it was able to offer a summer camp for homeless kids this year, giving them a safe, productive place to go and their parents time to work or find jobs.

“I was never a child who went to camp,” she said. “I went to a labor camp.”

Chinn said she had just finished distributing 275 backpacks filled with school supplies to families in need, adding that a single local business owner paid for 100 of them. That took Chinn on a tangent. Did you know, she asked, that more than 20 of the kids she used to give backpacks to, whose families she used to and still does

feed, are now in college?

“Can you believe that?” she asked.

Not waiting for an answer, Chinn’s focus then shifted to the Uplift program launched through the center earlier this year. It pairs homeless people with a one-on-one coach, who helps them with everything from building job skills to community improvement projects, like going out and cleaning the trash left by homeless encampments in the city’s green belts.

“They see this is their past, where they made a mess and didn’t clean it up,” she said. “And they see themselves as a part of the community, a part of the solution.”

Then there’s Blue Angel Village, the transitional housing project in converted shipping containers that Chinn launched when the city of Eureka cleared the homeless encampments in the PalCo Marsh, that’s still going strong, helping connect people with jobs and permanent housing. And the day center recently launched a family literacy effort and this week welcomed 24 kids into its after school program.

“I work so many hours in so many different things but I don’t feel I have a burden on me,” Chinn said before saying she had to “get going.”

With that she walked out into the day center’s lobby where a young man was waiting. She walked over and asked how she could help. The way Kamps, Daniel and Wildgen see it, this is exactly what an activist would do.

“Her organizing career centers and temporary housing rose from her very straightforward solution: feeding hungry people,” Daniel wrote in the email to the Journal. “An activist sees a problem and implements a practical solution, no matter what results are predicted or promised.”

It turns out Betty Chinn has quietly been an activist all along. ● Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@northcoastjournal.com.

A Reckoning in Rohnert Park

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

I

t seems something was very rotten in the city of Rohnert Park.

Lawyers representing the city agreed Aug. 20 to pay a Texas man $415,000 to settle a federal lawsuit alleging that Rohnert Park police unlawfully seized 3 pounds of legal marijuana during a 2017 traffic stop outside city limits. The settlement came just a day after five men — including Jason Harre, of Redway — filed a separate federal racketeering case against the city, alleging the police department engaged in a “conspiracy to commit theft, robberies, extortion, tax evasion, money laundering and obstruction of justice” during drug interdiction efforts along U.S. Highway 101.

Speaking to KQED, Ezekial Flatten’s attorney Izaak Schwaiger, who’s also representing the five plaintiffs in the lawsuit filed Aug. 19, quipped that the settlement represents “the most expensive marijuana transaction for 3 pounds of cannabis in the history of the United States,” noting that the city essentially paid $138,000 for each of the pounds police, claiming to be federal ATF agents, seized from Flatten in December of 2017.

Suspicions surrounding the Rohnert Park Public Safety Department’s drug enforcement efforts first bubbled into public view when Southern Humboldt reporter and Journal contributor Kym Kemp reported Flatten’s allegations in February of 2018. Allegations have since snowballed, as we reported in our June 9, 2018, cover story “Highway Robbery,” which was reported in conjunction with KQED News and Kemp. The story detailed numerous allegations of irregular traffic stops along U.S. Highway 101 by Rohnert Park police well outside city limits that led to the seizure of cannabis and or cash.

Flatten alleged that he was driving a rental car south from Humboldt County with 3 pounds of legal cannabis he was taking to a Santa Rosa testing laboratory in 2017 when he was pulled over by an unmarked black Ford Police Interceptor just north of the Mendocino County line, about 50 miles north of Rohnert Park. Flatten said he offered to show the officers, who weren’t wearing badges or identify-

10

ing name tags, his doctor’s prescription for medical cannabis but they declined.

Instead, he said, the officers told him they were working for the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, and seized his cannabis, offered no receipt and told him he might be getting a letter from Washington.

“In less than five minutes, the officers had left the scene with Mr. Flatten’s cannabis without ever having run his name for wants and warrants, and without so much as issuing a citation for even a traffic infraction,” Flatten’s lawsuit, filed in November of 2018, states.

The lawsuit specifically names two now former Rohnert Park officers it alleges were at the center of the department’s criminal conspiracy — Joseph Huffaker, who was allegedly one of two officers who pulled Flatten over, and Jacy Tatum, an aggressive drug enforcement officer who developed a reputation for both large seizures and questionable tactics. While Tatum wasn’t involved directly in the stop of Flatten, the lawsuit alleges he incriminated himself when he penned a fabricated press release Feb. 13, 2018, in response to Kemp’s inquiries.

“When plaintiff came forward publicly, Tatum quickly sought to quash plaintiff’s accusations by issuing a press release to whitewash the conspiracy,” the lawsuit alleges. “But Tatum’s statement to the press was too hastily contrived, and his involvement in the illegal seizures too prolific. As a result, his press release defended the wrong illegal seizure, and instead of diffusing the scrutiny plaintiff’s allegations had brought, it brought the allegations more clearly into focus. Following the bogus press release, an internal investigation was launched at Rohnert Park Department of Public Safety. Shortly thereafter, defendant Tatum resigned from the force, Defendant Huffaker was placed on administrative leave and the director of the department announced his retirement.”

In March, the city of Rohnert Park agreed to pay Huffaker $75,000 in exchange for his resignation after an internal affairs investigation found misconduct the city felt warranted termination, City Man-

ager Darrin Jenkins told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat.

The most recent lawsuit alleges that, in five illegal traffic stops carried out between November of 2015 and October of 2016, Rohnert Park officers combined to illegally seized more than 65 pounds of cannabis and $62,000 from the plaintiffs.

Harre alleges that he was travelling south on U.S. Highway 101 on Oct. 3, 2016, “lawfully transporting 34 pounds of medical cannabis to a medical collective in Los Angeles,” when he was stopped near Cloverdale.

“Officer Huffaker and Sgt. Tatum were dressed in commando-like uniforms wearing tactical vests marked ‘ATF’ with chest holsters for their firearms,” the lawsuit states. “The officers advised Mr. Harre that he had not been maintaining his lane, ordered him out of his vehicle and began peppering him with questions about whether he was transporting marijuana.”

The complaint alleges the officers searched Harre’s vehicle and seized 34 pound of cannabis and $7,000 in cash, after which they “continued interrogating Mr. Harre, asking him questions about the techniques he used to grow the cannabis, what strains he was transporting and other questions which Mr. Harre believed would only be relevant to a broker of marijuana looking to sell another person’s product.”

The complaint also details allegations surrounding the stop of Joshua Surrat in December of 2015. Surrat alleges he was also stopped near Cloverdale by Huffaker and Tatum, who searched his truck and found 26 pounds of cannabis.

“Mr. Surrat then explained that he was lawfully transporting the cannabis and he was in possession of all the required paperwork,” the lawsuit states. “Tatum told him his paperwork was invalid. Mr. Surrat said he didn’t think a judge would see it that way. In response, Tatum became enraged and told Mr. Surrat he had two options: The officers could seize his truck, his belongings and his marijuana and arrest him for felonies, or Mr. Surrat could surrender the cannabis and the officers would be on their way. Mr. Surrat answered, ‘Obviously option B, if you put

it like that.’ Tatum then moved very close to Surrat’s face and said, ‘You don’t tell anyone about this either. Not your lawyer, not the collective where the herb is going, no one. If we don’t hear from you, you won’t hear from us.”

The complaint alleges the officers then took pictures of Surrat’s driver’s license and license plate. As the officers’ car was pulling away, the complaint alleges it stopped and Huffaker rolled down his window to ask, “What strains are in here?”

Tatum and Huffaker also committed financial crimes, the suit alleges, noting they made transactions “with the proceeds of extortion with intent to promote their continuing racketeering” and filed “false and fraudulent income tax returns omitting the income from their robberies and extortionate seizures of cash and proceeds of the cannabis sold after acquiring it by theft and extortion.”

Furthermore, the complaint alleges the two former officers tried to conceal their profits by purchasing boats, automobiles, household goods and real property with their “unreported cash.”

After the 2017 traffic stop, Flatten reportedly lodged a complaint with the FBI. It’s unclear if the agency is investigating his and other allegations regarding the conduct of Rohnert Park police.

Schwaiger told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat that the depth of the corruption in the city’s police department isn’t yet fully known.

“The best case scenario is we have a chain of command up to the city manager that is totally incompetent and unaware of what’s happening in the department.” he said. “The worst case scenario is the Department of Public Safety is an outright criminal enterprise that needs to be shut down, and that’s precisely what we’ve alleged in this complaint. We believe that to be the case.” l Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@ northcoastjournal.com. Follow him on Twitter @thadeusgreenson.

Hats Off

Eurkea’s Poet Laureate David Holper

C

ongratulations, Eureka, you have your first poet laureate. David Holper, a 61-year-old professor of English at College of the Redwoods and brave judge of the NCJ annual Flash Fiction Contest, got word of his selection last week. Holper is a graduate of the University of Massachusetts at Amherst’s MFA English program and his second book of poems The Bridge (available in local bookstores) was published this year. You may have also seen a poem or two of his in the Journal.

The position, created this spring, is the brainchild of Eureka City Councilmember Leslie Castellano and Kristi Patterson of Trajectory, an Ink People project. Castellano felt a poet laureate would be “a strong component of what Eureka is trying to do in terms of arts and culture.” The pair brought a proposal before the Eureka Arts and Culture Commission for approval and to hammer out the program.

The commission chose Holper from among 13 applicants whose identifying information was removed for anonymity, leaving three poems and proposals for community projects for review. Holper’s proposals include an online database of local poets who’ve published books, a po-

etry contest in the name of David Josiah Lawson and a contest inspired by the Visible Poetry Project, in which he took part, that will partner poets with visual artists.

The poet laureate’s duties include giving a local reading and writing four poems about Eureka and its environs. “I have no poems about Eureka, so I’ve gotta get going on that,” says Holper. He’s already active on the public reading scene, though, having read at the Morris Graves Museum of Art, the Humboldt Poetry Slam and Bayside Books with a couple gigs coming up in September.

Asked about the pay for the gig, Holper admitted he didn’t know what it would be.

The stipend is a $250 honorarium, nomination to the California Poet Laureate position and the printing of broadsides or a chapbook of the poet’s work. The money, such as it is, isn’t Holper’s motivation.

Instead, Holper cites former national Poet Laureate Billy Collins’ visit to Humboldt State University. He recalls Collins, who focused his tenure on popularizing poetry, talking about the job and saying, “Poetry is the emotional history of the human race.” Meeting California Poet Laureate Dana Gioia, who was doing readings in every county of the state, was similarly

“I’m just going to make as much effort to get poets to perform or submit their work,” says Holper.

ON THE COVER

LIGHT INTO DARK PLACES

Humboldt’s first police misconduct records released under new transparency law

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

E

ureka Police Officer Jacob Jones had been on the force about a year and a half when, shortly before 6 p.m. on May 25, 2018, he was dispatched to a report of a potential weapons violation. About 40 minutes earlier, a 46-year-old man had opened the back door of his Eureka residence to call in his dogs. When one dog — described in police reports as a small-breed female with brown, curly hair — didn’t come, he worried she’d escaped, as she sometimes did, and stepped out into his fenced backyard to look for her. Along the north fence line, he found her lying dead, a bloody wound visible on the left side of her chest.

According to dispatch records, Jones arrived on scene at 6:58 p.m. and didn’t stay long. The dog’s owner would later tell Jones’ supervisors that the officer “was very unsympathetic.” Three minutes after arriving at the home, Jones radioed dispatch to say no further resources were necessary. Within six and a half minutes of arriving at the house, Jones was en route

Jones was back in the classroom at EPD headquarters when his supervisor, Sgt. Edward Wilson, followed up with him.

Wilson would later tell an internal affairs investigator that he’d seen the call pop up on a dispatch computer screen when it came in but his attention was quickly diverted to another incident — a report of someone brandishing a gun — in another part of town. Wilson said he just wanted to follow up with Jones and asked him about the call. Jones reportedly told his commanding officer that there’d been a dead dog at the residence with a deep circular wound that looked like it had been stabbed or shot with a BB gun. Wilson then asked if Jones had taken photos documenting the wound and where the dog had been found.

“He said, ‘Yeah, I took photos,’” Wilson later told investigators.

An internal affairs investigation completed seven months later would

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Aug. 29, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

conclude that Jones lied about the photos that day, repeated those lies when pressed and that he subsequently took steps to conceal his dishonesty from his superiors. He was suspended without pay for a month, about the most severe discipline a patrol officer can receive short of being fired. But the reverberations of Jones’ actions didn’t end there.

The Humboldt County District Attorney’s Office is the midst of a months-long effort to re-evaluate all prosecutions involving the officer, with at least three cases resulting in dismissals or pleas to lesser charges and another 19 still needing to be reviewed.

“I expect the prosecution of the majority of those will be impaired to some extent,” District Attorney Maggie Fleming wrote in an email to the Journal, adding that from her perspective, the result of Jones’ internal affairs investigation “rendered him unable to serve as a witness in criminal prosecutions,” necessitating the dismissal of cases that were dependent on his testimony. “This example illustrates

the damage done to the pursuit of public safety by improper law enforcement and how survivors of crime are victimized twice when cases can’t be prosecuted.”

You may have noticed that a lot of stories like this have been making headlines throughout California in recent months. It’s not that the Golden State is experiencing a spike in police misconduct, just that a new landmark transparency law is bringing police misconduct records into public view.

For 40 some years, California has had some of the strictest police officer privacy laws in the country. Known as the Police Officer’s Bill of Rights, the laws so tightly protected the confidentiality of police personnel records that they even allowed agencies to deny prosecutors access to them — a protection that officers in no other state enjoyed.

For years, transparency efforts in the Legislature have stalled, with police unions strongly opposing any measure they felt would compromise officers’ privacy or

DR. PAUL DOMANCHUK OPTOMETRIST

open them up to added public scrutiny.

But a spate of police killings of unarmed people of color and the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement added urgency to calls for increased police transparency.

State Sen. Nancy Skinner (D-Berkeley) said in a statement that she introduced Senate Bill 1421 with the aim of “rebuilding trust” between law enforcement agencies and the communities they serve through increased transparency.

The bill, which passed the Senate on a 25-11 vote and the Assembly 44-30 on Aug. 31, 2018, requires that agencies make public the records from officer involved shootings and major force incidents, as well as any sustained allegations of sexual assault or dishonesty while on duty. It was signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown on Oct. 1 and went into effect in January.

S.B. 1421 split some segments of the state’s law enforcement community. A number of unions representing rank and file officers — like the Peace Officers Research Association of California and the California Association of Highway Patrolmen — opposed it, arguing the new law could make officers “hesitant” during critical incidents and that it could undermine public trust and lead to costly civil lawsuits. Other police groups — most notably the California Police Chiefs Association — supported the measure after certain amendments they felt were needed to protect ongoing investigations were made.

“As police chiefs, the ability to illustrate the depth of our investigations and the post-incident training or corrective actions taken will lead to increased trust and confidence with the communities we

made public under Senate Bill 1421 for incidents dating back to 2010. A number of agencies (like the Rio Dell and Ferndale police departments) responded quickly to say they have no such records — meaning they hadn’t had an officer-involved shooting or a sustained misconduct allegation in the time period. Others — like the Fortuna and Arcata police departments — promptly turned over records associated with officer-involved shootings. While these records added additional depth to information that had already been reported, none of them included records of officer discipline or indicated the information already provided to the public about the incidents had been inaccurate.

Responses from the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and EPD, meanwhile, continue to trickle in, with Jones’ case being the first documenting a sustained allegation of wrongdoing. (The sheriff’s office has thus far only released reports on officer-involved shootings.) According to local law enforcement officials, complying with S.B. 1421 presents a daunting challenge for the county’s larger law enforcement agencies, which, in addition to having more officers, also have more shooting investigation records to comb through.

As an example, consider the Aug. 18, 2016, shooting of David Alan Fulton, who had barricaded himself in a McKinleyville apartment complex during a 17-hour standoff with police. Records of the shooting investigation, which the sheriff’s office released to the Journal earlier this year, contain hundreds of pages of supplemental reports from dozens of officers from the multitude of agencies that responded, each of which had to be redacted to avoid identifying witnesses or disclosing other protected information. In short, processing these records requests can be incredibly time consuming. (As an aside, the California Highway Patrol has informed reporters it won’t finish poring through its responsive records until the summer of 2020.)

EPD Chief Steve Watson said he’s “OK with S.B. 1421 at the end of the day,” finding that it appropriately balances officers’ privacy interests with the need for transparency. But he does have one serious criticism.

“S.B. 1421 didn’t make any additional

While the law nominally went into effect Jan. 1, it faced a series of unsuccessful legal challenges that rose all the way to the California Supreme Court.

Jones’ internal affairs investigative file spans 245 pages, which detail his alleged dishonesty regarding the dog killing case and another set of allegations that are redacted. While the second set of allegations were also ultimately sustained in the investigation, they do not meet the criteria of what’s publicly discloseable under Senate Bill 1421 and remain confidential, according to EPD. Paging through the report, a couple of things seem abundantly clear: that EPD’s leadership took this investigation seriously and that disciplining an officer is a long, painstaking process.

On July 10, 2018, some six weeks after Jones responded to the fateful dog call, Wilson penned a memorandum to Capt.

Brian Stephens officially notifying him of his concerns. The two-and-a-half-page document outlines allegations that Jones initially told Wilson he’d taken pictures, that the officer then went to access the camera in the duty pack he’d been using

Stephens assigned Sgt. Greg Hill and Sgt. Rodrigo Reyna-Sanchez to conduct the internal affairs investigation and informed Jones that when the time came to “obtain his statement,” he would be notified in advance and could choose to have an attorney present with him. When the administrative interview took place Sept.

14, Jones was represented by Julia Fox, a senior associate of the law firm Rains, Lucia and Stern’s Legal Defense of Peace Officers Practice Group.

On Feb. 22, 2019, Stephens again sent Jones an official memorandum, this time to inform him of the department’s decision to suspend him without pay.

The 12-page document, which details the allegations against Jones and the investigation’s findings, also notifies the officer he has the right to a pre-disciplinary conference — essentially a last chance to plead his case in front of the police chief in what’s known as a Skelly conference — and an administrative appeal hearing.

During the Skelly conference, a transcript of which is included in the internal affairs investigation, Jones argued the whole thing was a misunderstanding. He said he did initially tell Wilson he’d taken photos but it was an honest mistake, one that he made no efforts to hide the following day when he realized he hadn’t taken photos and, according to his statement, hadn’t even had a working camera at the scene that day.

“I nonchalantly responded to my sergeant when he asked me if I took pictures,” Jones said, according to the transcript. “I absentmindedly said, when he asked me, ‘Hey, did you take pictures?’ ‘Yeah.’ And when I realized I hadn’t … I told him that.”

Arguing on Jones’ behalf, the lawyer urged Watson to think about Jones as a person — to take into account “the hoops that Jake has jumped through personally to achieve this goal” of becoming a police officer.

“It would be illogical and idiotic for him to completely foreclose his ability to pursue that line of work by being dishonest over something that’s chicken shit, his taking photos of a deceased dog,” she said. “You know that.”

Watson concedes that lying about whether an officer took pictures at a potential crime scene would seemingly be “trivial” thing to throw a career away over.

But then he quickly changes course.

“Our customer service, our honesty, our integrity … is crucial to who we are and what we do, and the trust that the public has in us.” the day of the call to see if he could find the photographs, that he told another officer he had not, in fact, taken any pictures but that he ultimately just reported back to Wilson that he “was unable to locate any photographs he had taken of the deceased dog.”

“I am deeply concerned about this incident to say the least,” Wilson wrote to Stephens. “I do my best as a field supervisor to create an environment where my personnel can approach me no matter what the issue is. I am saddened that it does not appear that was the case in this incident.”

Nine days later, Stephens sent a memorandum to Jones officially notifying him that he would be assigned to administrative duty, effective immediately, as he was being investigated for conduct unbecoming and knowingly making false statements, both violations of EPD policy.

“With that being said, nothing’s really truly trivial in our … in our profession,” he said. “Our customer service, our honesty, our integrity … is crucial to who we are and what we do, and the trust that the public has in us,” he said. “What I would ask you now is, uh, can you explain to me why the supervisors … seem to have such a markedly different recollection of what you communicated to them versus what you’ve been telling me here. Because knowing both of them, having worked with both of them for many years, uh, I’ve never noticed either one of them to be even remotely dishonest or to take these kinds of things lightly.”

Nine days after the hearing, Watson notified Jones that he was upholding his suspension.

“I find that you were untruthful in your responses during the underlying events, during your (internal affairs) interview and during the Skelly conference,” he wrote. “I find that your statements … demonstrate a lack of credibility and attempt to conceal information on your part.”

Jones was suspended March 22 — his police powers revoked — through April 21. Jones subsequently requested an

appeal hearing before a personnel board that was scheduled for May 16. If successful, it would have resulted in his being given back pay for his period of suspension and the disciplinary action being stricken from his record. But the hearing was never held. Instead, Jones resigned his position with the city May 5.

Despite all the handwringing

about a potential suspension for lying to his superiors being potentially career ending, Jones has landed on his feet. On June 12, he was sworn in as his hometown of Willits’ newest officer.

Reached by phone Aug. 26, Willits Police Chief Scott Warnock said he was well aware of the allegations Jones faced in Eureka when the decision was made to hire him.

“Of course when somebody has an IA it raises some red flags,” the chief said.

“We thoroughly investigated it and determined we were comfortable hiring him …

He’s a great officer.”

Meanwhile, as Jones polices the streets of Willits, the district attorney’s office continues to sort through the mess that his alleged dishonesty left in Humboldt.

Reached Aug. 26, Watson said these types of investigations are grueling and painful for a small department. He pointed to the fact that a sergeant and a captain have to conduct these investigations amid all their other duties. Plus, he said, there are statutory protections for accused officers that dictate notifications

we have to hold ourselves to and when someone engages in misconduct there has to be ownership of that and accountability.

“I care very deeply about the members of our agency and I understand their sacrifices and I care about their futures greatly but, as a chief, I also care very much about the reputation of the Eureka Police Department and the trust the public holds in us, and the trust the public holds in the institution of policing. These types of investigations are necessary because we recognize how absolutely vital the public’s trust is and how easy it can be broken.” l

“This is part of being an agency that is accountable.” and timelines, and the whole process plays out with an officer on administrative duty while the vast majority of his colleagues don’t know why. Plainly, he said these types of investigations take a toll on morale. But he said they’re also necessary.

“This is part of being an agency that is accountable,” he said. “I recognize that our men and women have a very difficult job to do and they work in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment. They have to make split-second decisions. But at the same time, we have high standards that

reat news: Melon season is in full swing. The list of melon varieties I encountered during recent visits to the Arcata farmers market and the North Coast Co-op is 16 names long, some lovely, like Swan Lake or Snow Leopard, others intriguing, like Toad Skin. We are fortunate a number of farmers grow melons in Humboldt County.

Let the name or shape entice you to try a variety. When in doubt ask the farmers who have selected, grown and harvested their melons. Neukom Family Farm post labels on their boxes of melons that provide brief descriptions of each variety. For example, the Haogen melon is an “Israeli dessert melon with fragrant, light green flesh. A farm favorite!” (Mine too.) The orange-flesh honeydew, on the other hand, is “Sweet and juicy, perfect for picnics!”

You can certainly choose to trust the stars and pick the one that’s winking at you from the box, whether it’s a Goddess or a charming Charentais. Once your dream of melon has come true and you get home with a precious purchase or two, what to do? A ripe, sweet, juicy melon can certainly be enjoyed as is (minus rind and seeds).

In Italy, the classic pairing of prosciutto e melone graced many of my family’s dinners in the summer, especially in August, when we spent three weeks in my father’s village in the countryside north of Rome.

Salty prosciutto and sweet melon offer a flavor and texture combination that never grows old. On the other hand, that was the only way we ate melon, which is rather limiting for a fruit that marries well with a variety of other ingredients.

A summer salad of roasted corn and cherry tomatoes originally included cucumber. One day, out of cucumbers, I wondered how it would work with melon — perfectly. Inspired, I continued on the same path, adding melon to other dishes I thought could benefit from it. A mixed

green salad with arugula and/or radicchio?

Add melon. Fresh fromage blanc? Add melon. Leftover kohlrabi slaw (“Meet Kohlrabi,” Aug. 2, 2018)? Add melon.

Melon plays well with other types of fruit for a refreshing breakfast or light dessert — try blueberries or Italian plums — and it does well in fruit salads. And since we are talking about dessert, I am reminding you of the recipe Amy and Jacques Neukom once contributed to a famers’ favorite recipe article (“Beautiful Beans,” Sept. 15, 2016): “Half a small melon, the seeds scooped out, becomes an edible bowl to fill with ice cream. Cantaloupe and Swan Lake are the varieties of choice.”

Roasted Corn, Cherry Tomato, Melon and Avocado Salad Serves 2-3 as a side dish.

This can easily be doubled since you’re already roasting twice the corn needed and using only half an avocado.

Ingredients: 2 fresh ears of corn, still in their husks and with silks attached (otherwise wrap them in foil before roasting) 2 dozen cherry tomatoes (count large ones twice) ½ small melon ½ ripe medium avocado 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, preferably homemade

1/ teaspoon fine sea salt 8 ¼ teaspoon sherry vinegar 3-4 leaves of fresh basil, rolled and cut thinly

Heat the oven to 450 F. Place the corn on a baking sheet leaving a bit of space between the ears and roast for 20 minutes. Let the ears cool briefly, then remove the husks and silks.

Working in a shallow bowl or dish, stand the corn vertically and use a knife to cut the kernels and scrapings from the cob. (Save the empty cobs to make stock or broth.)

Scoop the avocado meat into a salad bowl. Add the mayonnaise and salt, and mash. Add half of the corn and toss. Store the other half in a covered container in the refrigerator for the next batch of the salad.

Cut the cherry tomatoes in half (in quarters if large) and add them to the bowl.

Scrape the seeds from the melon. If you have a melon baller, cut domes of melon, otherwise cut the melon into wedges, slice away the rind and cut each wedge into bite-sized pieces. Add the melon to the bowl.

Sprinkle the sherry vinegar over the bowl and toss gently. Sprinkle the basil and toss again. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve and enjoy. ● Simona Carini also writes about her adventures in the kitchen on her blog www.pulcetta.com.

Micro-farming a Kitchen Herb or Succulent Garden

- Try our poke salad! -

By Katie Rose McGourty

L

ate summer, and the weather continues to be fine with warm days and long evenings. Here on the home farm, we’re straightening up our culinary herb garden bed to enjoy stepping out the back door and snipping a few sprigs of fresh herbs to add to farm kitchen sauces, salads, soups and stir-fried veggies. Cucumbers and summer squash are going off, and we’re getting ready to head to the neighborhood blackberry patch to pick as many delicious berries as possible. If you’re looking for a fun and easy late summer garden project, try planting an herb garden. Most culinary herbs, such as marjoram, thyme and oregano can be planted now. Culinary herbs are easy to grow, requiring full to partial sun and occasional watering. They don’t require as much legroom as veggies so they can be kept in containers and small planter boxes.

In addition to adding herbs here at home, we’re helping out some neighbors with their community herb garden, too.

We started with just a few containers, dollar store seeds and repurposed juice bottles for watering cans. We didn’t know if anyone would actually want to garden when we weren’t around, so we started small. Not only did our community members handle their fair share of daily watering, they took initiative to go out and acquire plants on their own. And manure. And tools. Before we knew it, we were admiring lush lemon cucumbers and sprawling summer squash vines taking over the back corner of the garden. The garden had taken on a life of its own.

Sometimes people come and chat during the gardening hours, sometimes with their companion animals. We share friendly conversation, beautiful sunshine and the rewarding task of weeding.

The community has its fair share of problems. There’s trouble with drugs, theft and loud noises at night. A good security system and an amazing property manager keep everyone following the rules. Anyone

who makes trouble is asked to leave so that another individual can come in and have a chance.

Like a beautiful lotus blossom rising from the muddy bottom of a pond, this community garden is beginning to bloom in spite of its challenges. Now we’re making planter boxes for succulents and culinary herbs out of donated wood scraps and glue. Everyone is starting with the same material but coming up with their own unique designs. It should make for an aesthetically pleasing display.

If you want to start a culinary herb or succulent garden of your own, late summer is a perfect time to get rolling. Go out and collect non-plastic planting containers (make sure there’s good drainage in the bottom) and some seeds and/or starts (thyme, oregano, marjoram, summer savory, dill, parsley, chives, etc). Start either seeds or transplants in a container with plenty of room to grow and fast-draining, well-fertilized soil. You can place small rocks in the bottom of the 2-4 inches of the container to maximize drainage. The larger the container, the bigger your plants will go, so don’t be afraid to go for jumbo sizes. In large containers, plant a few herbs together. Even medium and small containers will provide happy homes for darling plant friends. In smaller containers, plants can be planted individually. Place them in a sunny spot (indoors or outdoors) and water daily until they’re well established. Add embellishments to your succulent arrangements such as rocks, crystals, feathers and sea glass to add a touch of bling. You can

even move the containers depending on the season and what’s flowering.

If you’re unsure of what to plant, use your garden containers at as a guide. Got large containers? Go for herbs that can become large shrubs such as rosemary, sage, fennel and dill. You can also create groups of herbs to accompany a dish you love to cook — plant a cluster of spaghetti sauce herbs like basil, oregano, parsley and thyme, or mint, thai basil and cilantro for a bowl of pho. If you have medium containers, go for smaller, low growing herbs such as chives, thyme and oregano.

Small containers are great for succulents to add texture to the herb garden. Succulents growing in small containers require frequent watering, which will remind you to all water the herbs. Imagine the herb and succulent garden as a microfarm with the goal of growing a harvest large enough to sustain a kitchen’s worth of dried herbs (about a pint or quart-sized jar full). Each planted container has to be managed (weeded, watered and pruned). Some herbs (most especially oregano) grow faster than others, so it may be necessary to cut them back if they’re grouped with other plants. Herbs’ roots can be periodically pruned (every three to six months) so they don’t become root bound. Cutting back roots stimulates the leaves to grow, too, so you’ll be reminded to harvest as you prune with your kitchen scissors. ● Katie Rose McGourty is the owner of Healthy Living Everyday at www.healthyliving-everyday.com.

Bienvenidos

A

s an ad hoc cultural ambassador to the region and self-professed “music bozo,” I’d like to humbly welcome the assorted students of the area back to the academic grind. I won’t waste your time with a bunch of flutey language and annoying BS; I will instead direct your no doubt divided attentions to this big fat week of homecoming sounds. After a fairly spartan offseason, this session’s chalkboard is so packed full of options that I had to eschew a few. I cut out David Crosby, for Pete’s sake. Fine, he’s at the Van Duzer on Sept. 3 at 7 p.m. ($67, $26

students, $217/$567 VIP).

Anyway, have a blast.

Thursday

The Handshakers, a band for which I enjoy a fondness, will be playing two sets at Wrangletown Cider this evening beginning at 5 p.m. The show is free, there will be excellent local ciders and wines for sale, and I am told a food truck will be in the vicinity. What more simple pleasures could a body desire?

Friday

Seratones is Shreveport, Louisiana’s heaviest soul band and a fine contender for the most blissed out gospel rock band in America. Tonight at 8 p.m. the ’tones play a gig at the Arcata Playhouse, which is free for Humboldt State University students and a mere $10 for the rest of us civilians and punters. DJ Funky T-Rex provides crowd-warming vibes.

An hour and a half later at Humbrews there’s a new iteration of roots music happening, when Texas wunderkind Vincent Neil Emerson teams up with California’s own Jesse Daniel for an evening celebrating the eternal fading beauty of vintage country music songwriting. These boys are originals who walk the line of the greats. ($15, $12 advance).

At the same hour at the Jam, you will find the doors opening for a variety show of grooves as Who Is She Productions presents Mix Tape Vol. 7. ($5). Tonight’s line-up includes live hip hop by Little Kid Lost and old school, funk, jungle and DnB spun by Chill Will, BOA, Cassidy Blaze and Rufkraft. Booyakasha.

Saturday The busy weekend continues with three shows for the taste spectrum of the masses. The Outer Space has a very hot

today between 10th and 11th streets in Arcata. This year is the 34th annual celebration of Arcata’s relationship with its sister city Camoapa, Nicaragua, and I can assure you that there has never been a better time in American history to celebrate solidarity with the international worker’s movement and our fellow humans in Central America. Music will be provided

by Wild Abandon, Citizen Funk and The Latin Peppers. Come out and celebrate the power of people.

lineup tonight at 7 p.m. with France-byway-of Los Angeles electronica artist Lola Jean brings her act Death Hags to town for a night of danceable art grind. Local support will be provided by tonal beepers comma comma and everyone’s favorite brilliant post-punk, synth-riding buttheads CV. This is going to be a good show and you will feel bad if you miss it ($6-$20 sliding scale).

An hour later at Siren’s Song, you will find Sansfü, aka Absynth Trio instead of Quartet, with extra special guest singer Beverly Twist from Belles of the Levee and multi-instrumentalist Britt Smith.

Expect a night of vaporous torch music (free).

And finally, tonight at 11 p.m. at the Alibi you can enjoy the local Neil Young tribute act Shakey, featuring Pete Ciotti and friends. There’ll be two sets of music from the master’s songbook so lean back and enjoy, for the night is long ($5).

The Intelligence is a digital and guitar buzz-saw garage band from Los Angeles that is working on its second decade of hyperactive music. Tonight the pinging synth and choppy guitar dreadnought sails into Eureka to play the Siren’s Song. 8 p.m. ($5). Splashing the bow of this sturdy ship will be the local vintage flavors of Wet Spot and Clean Girl and the Dirty Dishes.

Saxophonist and open mic emcee Don Baraka celebrates his 76th birthday and his retirement from the music scene. Come celebrate this bittersweet musical milestone today at Blondies starting at 2:30 p.m. with a series of videos and recordings from the man himself showcasing his six-decade career (free).

Igor & the Red Elvises is an outsider — in this case Eastern Bloc outsider — rock band led by former citizen of the U.S.S.R. Igor Yuzov. Dating back to the Yakov Smirnoff-era of East/West cultural relations, Igor’s musical genesis came about when he married the native folk delivery of his homeland with a grandiose and cabaret version of American rock n’ roll. This 7 p.m. show will be screaming fun for anyone who has enjoyed a good time anywhere ever ($15/ $12 advance).

Monday (Labor Day) The I-Street Block Party starts at noon

Tuesday

The muted sparkle and static glisten of No Rave music comes from an electronic rejection of comforting sounds in favor of frenetic arpeggiated melody lines and muffled samples. It’s good stuff, really, and you can find out for yourself tonight at the Miniplex when Oakland’s 404 Not Found meets Eureka’s Drip Torch for a tussle in a low-bit landscape at 9 p.m. ($5).

This show will muffle, tap and pounce. l

Collin Yeo once dreamed of a joke.

It involved the Northwest Passage, brightly colored zoo animals and Harry Dean Stanton in an igloo. When he woke up it made no sense so he can’t share it here. He lives in Arcata.

Squatch Out!

Coupe, there is!

Willow Creek is a great destination for summer swimming and sunbathing along the river. It’s also the sweet spot for Squatch- spotting (if you’re into that sort of thing). In case you didn’t know, Willow Creek is the Bigfoot capital of the world with most of the Bigfoot legend/evidence (?) originating right here in Eastern Humboldt. And every Labor Day weekend the town throws a big ol’ party celebrating the elusive hulking hominid whose presence is felt (if not seen) in nearly every aspect of the town.

Bigfoot Daze are here again Saturday, Aug. 31 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m in downtown Willow Creek (free). The family friendly event has all the good stuff you’d want from a town-wide festival. There’s a parade, lots of activities at Veterans Park, live music, food and vendor booths, a softball tournament, car show, watermelon eating contest, Bigfoot call contest and logging competition. Catch the parade at 10 a.m. starting from Ray’s Food Place and ending at the Patriot gas station. For best viewing (and candy) stand in front of Ray’s, Credit Union and BigFoot Motel. Don’t miss the impressive Bigfoot collection in the China Flat Museum, which will be open for an ice cream social starting at 10:30 a.m. Bring a lawn chair or blanket to Veterans Park and kick back for live music, vendors, arts and crafts, contests, a softball and horseshoe tournament, Dream Quest drama club improv show and other activities from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Later, head over to The Forks Lounge parking lot for rock and roll from The Movers and the Shakers at 8:30 p.m. The Forks will be serving Bloody Marys all day, starting at 8 a.m. and barbecued oysters all day, starting at 10 a.m. — if that doesn’t bring out the big guy, nothing will.

Listen. This is the 26th Cruz’n Eureka and I’ve exhausted all my exhaust puns.

But I’m still going to give it a little gas and see what kind of mileage I can get.

Cruz’n Eureka, the annual fundraiser for Boys & Girls Club of the Redwoods, is back Sept. 5-7 in Old Town Eureka with loads of fun for everyone. There’s a poker run, an outdoor concert, a cruise through Old Town, a Friday night movie, two show and shine events and the massive car show on Saturday. And all of it for a great cause.

What in car nation goes on during Cruz’n Eureka? Plenty. The fun revs up Thursday, Sept. 5 with a Show & Shine and outdoor concert with the Sunshine Kids (rock and roll with soul) at 5:30 p.m. at Madaket Plaza (free), and just down the street the Poker Run kicks off at 6 p.m. at the Wharfinger Building ($5 per hand).

Friday, Sept. 6, check out more beauties at the Show & Shine at Eureka NAPA from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. (free) then gear up for Lithia’s Cruz’ through Old Town from 6 to 7 p.m. (free). After the cruise, motor over to the Eureka Theater for a special Cruz’n Eureka showing of the classic car action/comedy Smokey and the Bandit, starring Burt Reynolds, Sally Field and Jackie Gleeson at 7:30 p.m. ($8).

On Saturday, Sept. 7 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. tons of classic and vintage cars will be on display starting at Second and C streets in Old Town (free). Get all up in their grills. Ogle souped-up engines, marvel at the lines that haven’t rolled off an assembly line in decades, check out the curved roofs, angled fenders and fins, whitewall tires and shiny chrome. Old Town will be awash with a lively street fair with vendors, a swap meet, raffle and more. Take in all the fun and help raise money for local kids. He ain’t Chevy, he’s your brother.

Fucking Rich People Ready or Not

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

Review

READY OR NOT. It did not escape me that David Koch, half of the political juggernaut that was the Koch brothers, died the same sunny Friday afternoon this film about the viciousness of an uber-wealthy family opened in Humboldt. The impact of the fictional Le Domas dynasty, built on family-friendly board games, is nothing compared to the legacy of the climate-denying Kochs with which our grandchildren will be shackled. But Ready or Not does give us a cathartic parable about what the worst of the rich and powerful will do — selling their souls despite wringing their hands — to keep what they’ve got. It’s also an entertaining, darkly funny horror-thriller for those of us who don’t mind a little blood.

Well, a lot of blood.

In the opening flashback, a couple of pajama-clad boys stumble upon a man the rest of their relatives, in black tie and grotesque masks, are hunting down. The elder boy, Daniel, hides his brother Alex in an armoire and gives the man up to the mob. Fast forward 30 years to the same opulent mansion, where bride-to-be Grace (Samara Weaving) is having a pre-ceremony smoke in her Kate Middleton-esqe wedding dress before venturing down to marry Alex (Mark O’Brien) on the lawn of his family’s estate. Expecting garden variety in-law drama, she enumerates the awful qualities of the family Alex himself calls “horrible people” but she is still eager to marry. She scoffs when Alex and his cynical, Scotch-brined brother Daniel (Adam Brody) offer one last chance to back out.

Alex’s father, Tony (Henry Czerny), questions whether she’s “one of us” and there’s some epic glaring by old-money-Rumpelstiltskin Aunt Helene (bow down before Nicky Guadagni), but Alex’s mother, Becky (Andie MacDowell in a terrifying beehive), offers a warm welcome and advice as a fellow outsider: “Fuck ’em.” Once the vows are taken and the house is left to the family, their creepy butler (John Ralston) and a trio of Robert Palmer maids, the literal games begin. It’s a Le Domas tradition to retire to a clubroom full of hunting trophies and vintage weaponry (a less gilded version of the décor the elder Trump sons likely aspire to) to play a randomly chosen game at midnight after accepting a new member. When Grace pulls the hide and seek card, the mood shifts;

When men tell me to smile. Ready or Not unbeknownst to Grace, it’s the only game they play to the death. What Tony only hints at in introducing Grace to the tradition is that the Le Domas family’s seafaring progenitor made his fortune in the game industry the old-fashioned way: by pulling himself up by his own bootstraps and making a pact with a demonic entity requiring the occasional blood sacrifice. As Grace totters off to hide, all but Alex arm up like a game of Clue meets The Purge, some with furrowed brows, others licking their chops. (Cheers to whoever winkingly assigned Aunt Helene the battle ax.)

Once she gets wise to the true nature of the game, the unarmed Grace has to use her wits to escape the estate. As Daniel reminds her, crystal tumbler in one hand, antique gun in the other, “The rich really are different.”

The swearing, lightly tattooed Weaving makes a solid updated final girl with grit, who is gradually transformed by her ordeal. As her gown goes from winter white to bloody and muddy, Grace grunts, screams and grows more feral in reasonable proportion to her circumstances. But her final form recalls Heathers more than your average slasher heroine. How members of the Le Domas clan take to the hunt is fodder for cutting banter and the blackest comedy, between coked up spaz Emilie (Melanie Scrofano) and grim Helene, who calls to mind Cloris Leachman’s iconic Frau Blucher as a Troll doll. MacDowell, who at last shows her age here, seems released from the confines of her career-long role as the object of desire and is far more interesting to watch for it. As for the help, well, anyone considering proximity to power as a political strategy in our dark times should pay attention to how that pans out for the staff and every Bond villain’s henchman who ever zipped up a jumpsuit.

The directorial pair of Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett, who have directed other supernaturally bloody stuff together (V/H/S, 2012; Southbound, 2015), and writers Ryan Murphy (no, not that Ryan Murphy) and Guy Busick have, between them, penned scripts about moneyed excess, werewolves and hot teens pursued by inbred cannibals.

FIELD NOTES

Continued from previous page

Honestly, I would not have looked at the schlocky back catalogue of any of these guys and seen something this sharp and clever coming. Throughout, the pace is quick and the tension is high, with narrow escapes and gory (sometimes humorously abrupt) deaths aplenty. There are Hitchcockian moments of voyeuristic nail biting as characters watch scenes unfold via security and cell phone video feeds, along with dizzying shots of the mansion’s sinister staircases and passages. The camera also pays teeth-clenching attention to each new wound Grace collects and one scene definitely gave me tetanus. Whether or not the team behind Ready or Not intended a metaphor for the ossified politics and wealth gap of our times, an indignant Tony shouting that he has done everything right (according to the pact, anyway) hits a nerve and does make one smile at the thought of burning it all down.

Unlike conventional chemotherapy, which uses the maximum tolerated dose of chemo drugs, adaptive therapy uses smaller doses that leave enough sensitive cells to essentially crowd out resistant cells. Image

Living with Cancer

fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com

“

t may be tough to convince patients, even those with an incurable disease, that the best approach is not to kill as many cancer cells as possible but as few as necessary.” — James DeGregori and Robert Gatenby, Scientific American, August, 2019 When his wife, Nancy, was diagnosed with metastatic cancer, veteran science reporter George Johnson was determined to learn everything he could about the disease. She survived (and then, as he stoically recounts, left him) while he wrote the best non-specialist book, IMHO, on cancer: The Cancer Chronicles. His research convinced him that once the body had created cancerous cells, it was impossible to completely eliminate them through chemotherapy because “backed into a corner, they try to mutate their way out of trouble.”

Mutations are how cancer cells originate in the first place. With some 4 million cell divisions taking place in our bodies every second, it’s inevitable that some slightly-off copies will occur. And while most won’t survive, the odd ones will thrive and reproduce, out-competing regular, healthy cells. That’s cancer. Since cancer cells reproduce faster than most healthy ones, conventional treatment calls for knocking them out while they’re dividing and at their most vulnerable.

Which is why chemotherapy, in addition to selectively hitting cancer cells, kills other fast-dividing body cells, including those in hair follicles (hence hair loss), stomach lining (nausea) and bone marrow (source of blood cells, including white cells, hence immunosuppression).

Johnson’s conclusion was prescient in the light of the Scientific American article published this month: “The best response might not be to fight back with chemotherapy and radiation, increasing the stress, but to somehow maintain the exuberant cells — the tumor — in a quiescent state, something that can be lived with.”

As DeGregori and Gatenby explain it, the idea of living with cancer cells, rather

than quixotically trying to completely eliminate them from a patient, has its analogy in crop treatment. Many modern farmers drench their fields with pesticides such as pyrethrin compounds; more than 2 million tons of industrial pesticides are used globally every year.

Evolution tells us that in any population there will always be some pests that develop resistance and thrive once their “weaker” cousins are eliminated. The stronger the pesticide, the more resistant the survivors. So agricultural scientists have been recommending “integrated pest management,” the strategic use of pesticides to control but not eliminate crop-eating critters, thus maintaining the vulnerability of most pests to pesticides.

Same with chemotherapy. Instead of giving a patient with a cancerous tumor the maximum tolerated dose, or MTD (i.e. just short of killing them), give them just enough (typically 40 percent of the MTD) to contain the tumor. After treatment, the tumor will still have both chemo-sensitive cells and chemo-resistant cells, but the former will outnumber the latter, keeping the resistant cells in check (see graphic).

Another course of chemotherapy will be required since the tumor (now reduced) is still there. But now it will be vulnerable to chemotherapy, whereas a recurring tumor following conventional treatment usually isn’t.

This evolution-based “adaptive therapy” is still in trial stages but shows promise in the treatment of a small group of patients with metastasized prostrate cancer: average survival 34+ months vs. 13 months with conventional chemo. It may not be the silver bullet oncologists once dreamt about, but by working with evolution in this way, physicians may be able to help cancer patients live with their disease into old age. ● Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) has to remind himself that cancer is an inevitable consequence of evolution and that dinosaurs died from it, too.

To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: MICHAEL J. CONLEE. A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by ABBIE L. WERTZ in the Superior Court of California, County of HUMBOLDT. THE PETITION FOR PROBATE requests that ABBIE L. WERTZ be appointed as personal representative to administer the state of the decedent. THE PETI− TION requests the decedents will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for examination in the file kept by the court. THE PETI− TION requests authority to admin− ister the estate under the Indepen− dent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representa− tive will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.) The indepen− dent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority. A HEARING on the peti− tion will be held on: May 22, 2019, at 2:00 p.m. in Dept. 6 at Superior Court of California, County of Humboldt, 825 Fifth Street, Eureka, California. IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney. IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contin− gent creditor of the decedent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of the first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58 (b) of the California Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statues and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in Cali− fornia law. YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person interested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE−154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

SUPERIOR COURT OF CALIFORNIA, COUNTY OF HUMBOLDT Filed: OCT 15, 2018 Petitioner: ABBIE L. WERTZ, 2231 Union Street, Eureka, CA 95501 8/22, 8/29, 9/5 (19−251)

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this prop− erty lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to fee and clear ownership of the prop− erty.

If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

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

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call the trustee’s information line at 530−246−2727; Toll Free: 844−333− 6766, or visit this Internet Web site: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS # 19−2640.

ASTROLOGY

CARTOONS

Free Will Astrology Week of Aug. 29, 2019

By Rob Brezsny

Homework: What do you want most for the person or animal you love best? FreeWillAstrology.comFree Will Astrology

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com ARIES (March 21-April 19): Here are examples of activities I recommend you try in the coming days. 1. Build a campfire on the beach with friends and regale each other with stories of your most interesting successes. 2. Buy eccentric treasures at a flea market and ever thereafter refer to them as your holy icons. 3. Climb a hill and sit on the grass as you sing your favorite songs and watch the moon slowly rise over the eastern horizon.

4. Take naps when you’re “not supposed to.” 5. Sneak into an orchard at night and eat fruit plucked just moments before. 6.

Tell a beloved person a fairy tale in which he or she is the hero.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The hardiest creature on the planet may be the bacterium known as Deinococcus radiodurans. It can endure exposure to radiation, intense cold, dehydration, acid, and vacuum. I propose we make it your power creature for the coming weeks. Why? Not because I expect you’ll have to deal with a lot of extreme conditions, but rather because I think you’ll be exceptionally robust, both physically and psychologically. If you’ve been waiting for the right time to succeed at demanding challenges that require you to be in top form, now is a good time to do it. P.S. Deinococcus radiodurans is colloquially referred to as Conan the Bacterium, borrowing from the spirit of the fictional character Conan the Barbarian, who is renowned for his strength and agility.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the yearly cycle of many Geminis, retreating into a state akin to hibernation makes sense during the end of August and the first three weeks of September. But since many of you are high-energy sophisticates, you often override your body’s signals. And then nature pushes back by compelling you to slow down. The result may be a rhythm that feels like constantly taking three steps forward and two steps backward. May I suggest a different approach this year? Would you consider surrendering, even slightly, to the invitation to relax and recharge?

CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you decide to travel to a particular place via hot air balloon, you must be prepared for the possibility that your route will be indirect. At different altitudes, the wind may be blowing in different directions: toward the east at a hundred feet high, but toward the southwest at 200 feet.

The trick for the pilot is to jockey up and down until finding a layer that’s headed toward the desired destination. I see your life right now as having a metaphorical resemblance to this riddle. You have not yet discovered the layer that will take you where you want to go. But I bet you will soon.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Considering how bright you have been burning since the Flame Angels designated you as the Hottest Cool Person of the Month, I hesitate to urge you to simmer down. But I must. Before there’s a meltdown in your vicinity, please lower your thermostat. Not a lot. Just a little. If you do that, everyone will continue to see your gleaming charisma in the best possible light. But don’t you dare extinguish your blaze. Don’t apologize for your brilliant shimmer. The rest of us need your magical radiance.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Shogun is a bestselling novel about an Englishman who transforms himself into a samurai warrior in 17th century Japan. Written by James Clavell, it’s over 1,100 pages long. Clavell testified that the idea for the story sprang up in him when he read one line in his daughter’s school book: “In 1600 an Englishman went to Japan and became a samurai.”

I suspect it’s highly likely you will soon encounter a seed like that, Virgo: a bare inspiration that will eventually bloom into a Big Thing.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran athlete Mickey Mantle is in Major League Baseball’s Hall of Fame. He had a spectacular 18-year career, winning the Most Valuable Player Award three times, playing in 12 World Series and being selected to the AllStar team 16 times. So it’s astounding that he played with a torn

38

ligament in his knee for 17 years, according to his biographer Jane Leavy. She quoted an orthopedic surgeon who said that Mantle compensated for his injury with “neuromuscular genius.” I’m thinking that in the next few weeks you’re in a position to accomplish an equivalent of Mantle’s heroic adjustment.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Most people who belong to the Church of Satan neither believe in nor worship Satan. (They’re atheists and don’t believe in the supernatural.) I think a comparable principle is true for many rightwing fundamentalist Christians. Their actions and words are replete with bigotry, hard-heartedness, materialism and selfishness: so contrary to what the real Jesus Christ taught that they in effect don’t believe in or worship Jesus Christ. I mention this, Scorpio, in hope of inspiring you to take inventory of whether your stated ideals are reflected in the practical details of how you live your life. That’s always an interesting and important task, of course, but it’s especially so for you right now. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to purge any hypocrisy from your system and get your actual behavior in close alignment with your deepest values.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): It’s the right time for you to create a fresh mission statement and promotional campaign.

For inspiration, read mine: “My column ‘Free Will Astrology’ offers you a wide selection of realities to choose from. With 4,212 years of dedication to customer service (over the course of my last 13 incarnations), I’m a reliable ally supporting your efforts to escape your oppressive conditioning and other people’s hells. My horoscopes come with an ironclad guarantee: If the advice you read is wrong, you’re under no obligation to believe it. And remember: a panel of 531 experts has determined that ‘Free Will Astrology’ is an effective therapy for your chronic wounds and primordial pain. It is also dramatic proof that there is no good reason to be afraid of life.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Here are good questions for you to meditate on during the next four weeks. 1. How can you attract resources that will expand your mind and your world? 2. Are you bold enough to reach out to wise sources and provocative influences that could connect you with useful tricks and practical treasures? 3. What interesting lessons can you stir up as you explore the mercurial edges, skirt the changeable boundaries, journey to catalytic frontiers and make pilgrimages to holy hubbubs? 4. How best can you encourage lyrical emotion over polished sentimentality? Joyous idealism over astringent zealotry? Exuberant integrity over formulaic kindness?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “It is the beginning of wisdom when you recognize that the best you can do is choose which rules you want to live by,” wrote author Wallace Stegner, “and it’s persistent and aggravated imbecility to pretend you can live without any.” That will be an excellent meditation for you during the coming weeks. I trust you are long past the time of fantasizing you can live without any rules. Your challenge now is to adjust some of the rules you have been living by, or even dare to align yourself with some new rules — and then completely commit yourself to being loyal to them and enjoying them.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Given the astrological omens that will symbolize your personal story in the coming weeks and months, I think Piscean author Nikos Kazantzakis articulated the perfect prescription for you. I invite you to interpret his thoughts to fit your circumstances. “We’re going to start with small, easy things,” he wrote. “Then, little by little we shall try our hand at the big things. And after that, after we finish the big things, we shall undertake the impossible.” Here’s an additional prod from Kazantzakis: “Reach what you cannot.” ●
