Editor: Once again, Uri, who is a practical environmentalist, is right on (Mailbox, Aug. 29). If you have any concept of geologic history, you understand what is now considered a native species was geologically, at some time, invasive species. That, folks, is the nature of the beast. As he has said repeatedly, why would you rip up all the European beach grass that is doing its job to allow the resurgence of the “native species” when the current climate possibly would not support them? The end result of which will be a complete loss of the dunes as they march into the bay. Check Centerville and the Arcata Mad River beach areas and see how that is working. Your postscript of Rick Brennan’s letter, “The Big Show,” made his point (Mailbox, Aug. 22). Your response was a “lie by omission.” To simply say that the Mueller report “did not exonerate the president” implies that there was Russian collusion, when, in fact, it was referring to a possible (though not probable) obstruction of justice regarding the investigation itself. Rick’s charge that we cannot trust the “Drive by Media” [to possibly include The Journal (?)] was no less supported by the Journal editor’s lie by omission. Charlie Giannini, Fortuna

A dry cask at the Humboldt Bay Power Plant used to store spent nuclear fuel rods. File

PG&E is storing six casks of nuclear waste near Humboldt Bay, raising concerns By Elaine Weinreb

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

eed something to add to your worry list? Something in addition to global warming, sea level rise, wildfires, war, social injustice, the next tsunami and that long-expected mega-earthquake? How about the six casks of nuclear waste stored at the Humboldt Bay Power Plant? Staff members of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission — at least those well-spoken gentlemen who hosted a public meeting on Aug. 26 at the Wharfinger Building — would assure you that the nuclear waste should be very far down on that worry list. But some members of the public would tell you otherwise. That clash of viewpoints made for a very interesting two hours. The original purpose of the meeting was to satisfy some pro forma requirement for public interaction, a necessary task to check a box on a bureaucratic

to-do list. However, not a half hour in, some very concerned folks had seized control of the agenda and were letting the NRC and the PG&E public relations officer know exactly what they thought — and feared — about the legacy of Humboldt’s experiment with nuclear energy. In the 1950s, atomic energy was touted as the solution to all America’s energy needs. In 1960, PG&E began construction of a nuclear power plant next to its existing conventional power plant at King Salmon. It went on line in 1962 at a cost of $33 million. Fifteen years later, PG&E took the plant off line, estimating at that time the cost of decommissioning would be $382 million. Fortunately, rate-payers had been contributing to this fund each month as we paid our monthly power bills. Apparently, we will continue to be paying for quite some time, as the final cost of Continued on next page » northcoastjournal.com • Thursday, Sept. 5, 2019 • NORTH COAST JOURNAL

NEWS Continued from previous page

decommissioning is now estimated at more than $1 billion. When the plant was designed, somehow PG&E’s engineers failed to notice the earthquake fault right below the installation. And retrofitting a functioning nuclear plant is a lot harder than retrofitting a Victorian mansion or even a freeway overpass — you have all those intensely hot, radioactive fuel rods that can’t be exposed to the open air to deal with — and PG&E decided it was better to simply shut the darn thing down. Just in case you slept through the high school science class about nuclear energy, the ultra-short version is that rods of enriched uranium zap out unwanted neutrons from the nuclei of their atoms. They also emit heat at the same time, which boils water, which turns turbines to generate electricity. The neutrons, however, zap other uranium rods and the process continues. If left unfettered, you would eventually build up to a nuclear explosion, which was, of course, the original use for atomic energy. But by inserting neutron-absorbing materials like boron into the reactor, the process is maintained at just the right level — strong enough to

keep going and emit lots of heat but not strong enough to explode. Taking all of this apart is tricky, to say the least. It helps if you wait until the fuel rods naturally run out of juice — or neutrons — which they eventually do, although not all at once. Some, in fact, can be quite long-lived. But even if the plant had continued running, sooner or later PG&E would have had to swap out the old rods and replace them with new ones. Since the old rods are still radioactive — just not radioactive enough to keep the plant running — they have to be isolated in a safe area, such as a 40-foot pool of water. So at a convenient time decades ago, PG&E put the fuel rods in the pool and the nuclear plant went dark. The next step was to wait. Several years, in fact, while the rods cooled to a point where robots could handle them. In the meantime, the utility company dismantled the less hazardous portions of the plant, chopping them up and shipping them away to hazardous waste dumps throughout the nation. It turns out, however, that Uncle Sam had pulled a fast one on the utility companies. Despite the federal government’s

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Sept. 5, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

pledge that a giant nuclear waste dump would be opened somewhere, maybe in the heart of a desert mountain, no such facility was ever opened, likely because no state would agree to house it. So the feds gave the utility companies the bad news — they were going to have to store all the real bad waste onsite until … until, well, who knows. And with the half-life of plutonium, one of the by-products of nuclear reactors, spanning 24,000 years, those companies better be prepared to hang onto that waste for awhile. The NRC and PG&E decided that it would be safest to store the spent fuel rods in dry casks, lined with radiation-absorbing material, which would then be encased in concrete. By the end of this year, PG&E is supposed to have wrapped up all its decommissioning tasks. The exterior of the plant has been largely removed and some wetlands remediated. New conventionally-powered gas burning plants have been built nearby to supply Humboldt with energy. But six casks of nuclear waste remain onsite and will stay there. “There is no feasible plan to bury the casks at this time,” former decommission-

ing community advisory board member Mike Manetas, who also taught classes at Humboldt State University and College of the Redwoods on decommissioning nuclear plants, said in an email to the Journal. “Our six casks will remain in the concrete bunker on Buhne Point where the decommissioned nuke sat. That is 45 feet above sea level and the bunker is bermed about 30 feet into the ground. They may eventually be under sea level with climate change.” The storage of nuclear waste costs money but there is a trust fund operated by a commercial finance company and supervised by the California Public Utilities Commission, according to NRC spokesperson Loren Sharpe, who added there is enough money in the fund to last another 30 years. PG&E, you may recall, has filed for bankruptcy protection but Sharpe told the Journal that’s no reason to worry, pointing out the company doesn’t have control over the trust fund, anyway. Years ago, Congress ordered nuclear licensees, such as PG&E, to keep communicating with the public — through Community Advisory Boards, commonly known as CABs. Humboldt had its very

own CAB made of a respectable group of community leaders that included, along with the school principals and county supervisors (and Manetas), some longtime, anti-nuclear activists. The purpose of the Aug. 26 meeting was to be limited to discussing the purpose of the CAB and to decide whether it should continue after the end of the year, when PG&E is supposed to hand over one of its licenses to the NRC. The audience, however, was much more interested in discussing the potential dangers of the nuclear waste that still remains onsite. About 20 people spoke over the course of two hours, addressing an audience of about 75 people in the Wharfinger Building. Several complained that little public notification had been given for the meeting. While many speakers said PG&E had been a responsible partner and done its best to answer questions, nearly all emphasized the dangers of leaving the waste onsite. At points during public comment, the audience broke into applause. Manetas remarked that the cost of decommissioning had swelled from an initial estimate of $95 million to more than $1 billion but the problem of storing spent nuclear fuel was still nowhere near solved. “As the blue ribbon panel that President Obama cited [said], ‘There is no solution to high level radioactive waste,’” he said. Jennifer Kalt, a CAB member who is also the director of Humboldt Baykeeper, an environmental organization, pointed out that Buhne Point, where the nuclear plant is located, is “ground zero” of rising sea levels in Humboldt Bay because the ground underneath the bay is sinking, even as the ocean is rising. The bluff on which the plant sits has eroded 1,500 feet since 1870, she said. “What we have to worry about is major earthquakes and sea level rise,” said CAB member Dave Meserve, a former Arcata city councilmember. “It won’t bother us in our lifetimes but it is going to be an issue in the future.” First District County Supervisor Rex Bohn, who is also a CAB member, said he had been a vendor for the nuclear plant and worked for a contractor at the plant. He said his questions were always answered. He worried, however, about what might happen if the casks had to be moved to a different site. Fifth District Supervisor Steve Madrone said he is also worried, mentioning sea level rise, tsunamis, wave-action erosion at Buhne Point and a 1970 accident he said resulted in the release of radiation into the surrounding communities. As the evening progressed, the agitation level of the audience rose noticeably.

Scott Rainsford, who was a U.S. Coast Guard meteorologist in 1978, discussed his review of the nuclear plant’s operator log, which covered the accident that Madrone mentioned. Rainsford said there were subsequently several conflicting versions of the event and nobody knows how much radiation was actually released. Other speakers said the public had been sold a bill of goods, described the plant as “the next Fukishima” and the waste canisters as “Chernobyl in a can,”

and accused the agencies of “bullshit and obfuscation.” The high cost of decommissioning was mentioned by several speakers. Aldaron Laird, the environmental planner who has studied the future effects of sea level rise on Humboldt Bay, noted that the seawall protecting Buhne Point will be permanently underwater by 2090. The facility itself will be periodically inundated by king tides as early as 2060, he said. Maybe by then somebody will have

Good news: #NCJBurgerWeek will be even meatier than last year’s inaugural event! That also means more fellow diners showing up and, because kitchens aren’t staffed with genies and supplies are not infinite, a given restaurant could run out of its #NCJBurgerWeek burger toward the end of a shift. If that happens, don’t let your hangry self get the better of you and remember that making and serving burgers is a noble calling. Be kind to those doing this important work.

Yes, you may have to wait.

Do not forget to tip!

We all get caught up in the excitement of a deal. But don’t lose your manners and remember the folks cooking and serving are handling more orders and delivering a gourmet burger at a low price. Tip at least 20% and walk out with your head held high, making your parents and the NCJ team proud.

You should get some fries and a drink, too.

You’re not required to buy anything else but can you really say you’ve had the full experience without some kind of fried side and a beverage. This is the perfect time to try out the fries, onion rings and other goodies our restaurant pals are dishing out while showing a little love to local businesses. Is there craft beer on the menu? Milkshakes? Go big or go home, burger fans.

WEEK IN WEED

Reefer Madness, 2.0 By Kimberly Wear kim@northcoastjournal.com

or the first time since 1982, cannabis was issued its very own health advisory by the Surgeon General’s Office last week, which declared the need to raise the “national alarm” about the “dangerous drug.” Raising the nation’s top doctor’s hackles is what Surgeon General Jerome Adams lamented as a “rapid normalization of marijuana use” across the nation, saying the trend is leading to a rise in use among pregnant women and adolescents amid an uptick in potency levels. “As I like to say, ‘This ain’t your mother’s marijuana,’” Adams quipped during a press conference on the advisory with Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. Saying there were “33 experiments” being conducted by states that have legalized adult marijuana use on some level, Adams and Azar both emphasized this new advisory is meant to carry one main message: No amount of cannabis is safe to consume during pregnancy or adolescence. Providing the financial backing to bring that message to a Facebook feed near you is none other than President Donald Trump, who is donating $100,000 of his White House salary toward a social media campaign specifically aimed at mothers-tobe and parents. According to Azar, the “Trump Administration will do everything in its power” to turn the tide on the growing public opinion that marijuana does not pose the Schedule 1 dangers the government says it does. “Especially as the potency of marijuana has risen dramatically over the past several decades, we don’t know everything we might want to know about this drug,” Azar said. “But we do know a number of things: It is a dangerous drug. For many, it can be addictive. And it is especially dangerous for adolescents and pregnant women, because of what we know about how it affects the developing brain.” He then added, “We need to be clear: Some states’ laws on marijuana may have changed, but the science has not, and federal law has not.” Except there’s not a whole lot of science. And there’s not a lot of science because the government has built a battlement around access to the plant by leaving the Schedule 1 designation in place. By doing so, most major research institutions are restricted, if not downright prohibited, from tackling the many questions swirling around the plant’s potential — both for harm and for good. While marijuana took a pretty good

beating on the podium during the health advisory announcement, with the description “illicit drug” used often, there were also some indications that the government’s tightly held grip on marijuana research might be loosening. As has previously been reported in these pages, the only government approved source for research cannabis is the crop grown at the University of Mississippi, which — shall we say — won’t be taking home any Emerald Cup titles any time soon. While the Obama administration tried to open access to a more diverse growing field, Trump’s Department of Justice solidly slammed that door shut. At least, until now. “We’re committed to more research on illuminating these risks because one of the dangers is, we still don’t know all of the risks,” Azar said. Azar said his department is in discussions with the federal Drug Enforcement Agency and the Department of Justice to allow more research, acknowledging the “significant barriers” currently in place. He said those discussions have “borne fruit,” pointing to the DEA’s announcement in late August that the agency was “moving forward to facilitate and expand scientific and medical research for marijuana in the United States.” “I am pleased that the DEA is moving forward with its review of applications for those who seek to grow marijuana legally to support research,” Attorney General William P. Barr said in the release. “The Department of Justice will continue to work with our colleagues at the Department of Health and Human Services and across the Administration to improve research opportunities wherever we can.” Azar noted that gaining access to modern strains and the accompanying increased THC levels compared to the Mississippi schwag (not his words) was a much needed step for further studies about potential risks and benefits. “We want to open that up for more research and that is a priority of this administration,” he said. Until then, the administration’s stance seems to be that marijuana remains a “dangerous drug” according to yet-to-becompleted studies.l Kimberly Wear is the assistant editor at the Journal.

Former Trinity Hospital to Become HSU’s Children’s Center

umboldt State University has announced plans to renovate the Trinity Annex — the former Trinity Hospital property adjacent to campus on 14th Street between B and C streets — to house the university’s Children’s Center. Once slated for demolition, the 1944 building will now undergo “extensive work,” which will help preserve the “aesthetic of the west, original building,” according to the university. The project became possible after recently receiving an $8.6 million financial boost in one-time funds allocated by the California State University System’s Office of the Chancellor from state budget monies, according to a release from HSU. The project will breathe new life into the structure — which was a working hospital until 1972 — by bringing the Children Center’s operations together under one roof, with the possibility of the Child Development Laboratory also moving in at some point. “Faculty and staff at Child Development Department and Child Development Lab are excited about this proposal,” Hyun-Kyung You, Child Development Lab program leader, says in a press release. “Overall, this potentially helps us continue our vision and mission and do even better what we have been proudly doing.”

Tiffany Strango never had the overwhelming urge to birth children but she and her husband George have been mother and father to more than two dozen foster children over the last four years, including two they adopted. In the couple’s living room hang 26 framed photos — one of each of the kids — which she says will hang forever. Their house is full of energy. At any given time, the sounds of laughter and the pitter-patter of running feet fill the air. The living room is filled with toys, stuffed animals and, of course, picture frames. The couple tries to give each child equal attention and George flies the little ones around as if they were airplanes. Giggling ensues. It’s a warm and comforting space for those placed in Humboldt County’s foster care system. Last year, the Strangos had five children in their home ranging in age from 3 to 15

and each of the kids went to a different school. Two of the children, Joey and Ellie, are adopted. The Strangos were fostering the other three. Four of the kids were enrolled in Eureka schools but the fifth attended McKinleyville High School. Getting them all to and from school each day was a two-hour affair possible only because George Strango worked from home and had a flexible schedule. Part of the challenge was that Mr. J, the 15 year old they were fostering, was placed in the Strangos’ care in Eureka because there wasn’t a foster family available in McKinleyville. (Tiffany Strango asked that we refer to him as “Mr. J” for privacy reasons.) The situation isn’t unique to Mr. J as Humboldt County has a shortage of foster care homes and many are reticent to take in teenagers. And in a rural county like Humboldt, that often means foster families face long commutes to get their kids to school, which can pose another barrier to finding placements. “For people who are just looking to foster children and don’t have someone in mind, they typically take young children and babies,” says Alison Phongsavath,

program manager for Humboldt County’s Child Welfare Services. “[They typically don’t] take teens or older youth.” CWS’s goal when children are removed from their homes is to find relatives or people close to the families who will take them in. But when this isn’t an option, the county turns to foster families like the Strangos. “The biggest challenge of being in a rural area is the size of the county,” says CWS Deputy Branch Director Jeri Scardina. “Services, schools, families and visitations mandated by the court between child and parent can be in various areas in our huge county.” This poses a problem, especially because studies have shown the importance of keeping children enrolled in the schools they had been attending before being removed from their homes, or their “schools of origin.” A study by The Stuart Foundation in 2014, “The Invisible Achievement Gap Part 2: How the Foster Care Experiences of California Public School Students Are Associated with Their Education Outcomes,” found that 17 percent of Califor-

George and Tiffany Strango holding their adopted children, Ellie and Joey. Even after adopting, the Strangos continue to keep their doors open for foster children. nia’s foster youth were enrolled in at least three or more schools during their first year in the foster care system. “Students in foster care were found to be an at-risk subgroup distinct from low-socioeconomic status and other at-risk student groups,” the study states. “Relative to other at-risk student subgroups, students in foster care were more likely to change schools; to be diagnosed with a disability, particularly one of emotional disturbance; to be enrolled in nontraditional schools; to be at least a year older than the median age for their grade level; and to not participate in California’s statewide testing program. Students in foster care also had notably lower rates of proficiency in English language, arts and mathematics; had the highest single-year dropout rates; and had the lowest graduation rates.” To address this problem, California passed Assembly Bill 490 in 2004. The law is intended to prevent youth in foster care like Mr. J from being forced to change schools unnecessarily, and ensures that if they do switch schools, their new school enrolls them and receives their records

quickly. The removal of a child from his or her home is an inherently traumatic experience and changing schools can compound that. “In those cases, we are required to work with the family and the school district and the care providers about what efforts we can do to maintain they stay at their school,” Phongsavath says. In a rural county with a shortage of foster families, this is a challenging endeavor and one that families and officials are working to navigate just as new legislation is changing how foster families are licensed throughout the state.

In 2017, the Legislature enacted the Resource Family Approval (RFA) Program, introducing “resource family” as the new encompassing term for foster families or parents. Under the program, everyone fostering a child — even if a family member — must be certified through the same process. Phongsavath says there is now a single standard, whether for a matched home (those taking in a relative or a child with whom they have an existing relationship) or an unmatched one, like the Strangos. Previously, matched homes could be approved solely through a background check but with the new legislation, Phongsavath says now every family has to meet the same standards, go through the same trainings and all are eligible for the same resources and support. Former CWS Program Manager Deb Engs says the legislation has greatly improved the way the foster care system operates. Engs says the program also offers more consistency, making every county in California operate the same. Even with this improvement, though, Engs acknowledges there still just aren’t enough families like the Strangos in Humboldt County. “We need more resource families,” Engs says. “Child welfare has been some of the hardest work I’ve done, some of the most emotional work. I have a true fundamental belief every child here deserves a family to be with.” According to the Humboldt County Office of Education (HCOE), there were 756 foster youth aged 0 to 18 in the county last school year. To be considered foster youth by foster education law, a child must be a dependent of the court. It doesn’t matter whether the youth resides with a family member or a traditional foster family as long as the court has jurisdiction over the child, with a social worker and an attorney assigned to his or her case. (DHHS uses more stringent criteria to calculate the local foster care population and consequently reports a

lower population total than HCOE.) Statewide, roughly 0.5 percent of children are in foster care but that jumps to nearly 3 percent for Humboldt County children and the numbers appear to be trending in opposite directions. According to the California Department of Educa-

“The two issues are we don’t have enough foster homes and no public transportation for foster kiddos and these problems definitely feed each other.”

tion, California has a total of 51,086 foster youth, a 22 percent decrease from 2014. But as the number of foster youth has declined for the state, numbers are increasing in Humboldt County, widening the gap between children needing placements and available homes. There were 192 approved resource family homes as of July 25, according to CWS, but Phongsavath says this number is always changing and doesn’t include homes that are private nonprofit foster family agencies. With 756 children in the foster care system, this means placements are in demand and, with most families wanting to foster babies and young children, there can be few options for older youth like Mr. J. “The two issues are we don’t have enough foster homes and no public transportation for foster kiddos and these problems definitely feed each other.” Tiffany Strango says. “It’s up to us to get them to school. It’s a logistic nightmare. Schools start early.”

The Strangos saw Humboldt County’s need for foster families and kept fostering even after they adopted, which wasn’t their original plan. But Mr. J was their first experience with having to get a child to school outside Eureka and it was a challenge. The Strangos transportation schedule last year could be fairly described as hectic. George would drive Mr. J to McKinleyville for high school so he could make it to class by 8 a.m. Tiffany would drive three of the other kids, dropping one at the bus stop by 7:45 a.m., then Ellie at preschool, then another to middle school by 8:10, after which she’d go to

George would then drive back from McKinleyville to pick up Joey, who has special needs, and drop him at a special day class at 11 a.m. Then they would all need to be picked up at 12:30 p.m., 1:30, 2, 2:40 and 3:15. The Strangos began considering becoming foster parents in 2014 and hoped it would eventually lead to adoption. Tiffany Strango says she saw the need while working as a pediatric nurse in an intensive care unit in Bedside, Texas, where she “saw a lot of non-accidental accidents involving children.” She was promoted from her nursing job in Texas and moved to Eureka in 2013, where she became regional director of clinical informatics at St. Joseph Health System. On her first site visit to Eureka she met George, who was 20 years older and had six children of his own. George, sporting black rimmed glasses and a short crew cut, worked in the hospital’s IT department. They immediately hit it off, getting married in 2015. Within three months of becoming a foster family, they receive their first foster child. “We started talking about creating a family and George talked about adoption, so I said to him, ‘We could foster,’” Tiffany Strango says. “There are a lot of children in need of a loving and caring home because there are so many kiddos out there that need TLC. We got married in October and had our first baby in March.” Not long after their first foster child, they received Joey, their first adoption.

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Sept. 5, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

Joey arrived at 10 days old because of drug exposure from his mother. Tiffany Strango says his mother told her, “You’re the only mother Joey has ever known and I don’t want to take that away from him, will you please adopt our son.” She has since worked a program and is involved in the Strangos’ lives. George Strango even walked her down the aisle when she got married. “It’s the best outcome,” Tiffany Strango says. Next came Ellie at 4 months old with feeding issues. She was placed with the Strangos because of Tiffany’s nursing background. Tiffany Strango says Ellie craved stimulation and it was a real challenge to get her to keep food down. “She was supposed to be with us for only six weeks,” she says. “They had a plan B that didn’t work and we adopted her. She is our humming bird. She is on until she sleeps.” Tiffany Strango says Ellie’s energetic spirit draws Joey out his shell and helps him to be more social. She believes she and George were destined to be their parents and every day is a blessing, but she adds that the lack of foster families in the county puts a heavy burden on those willing to open up their homes. “If we didn’t have George working from home, transportation would be a big problem,” Tiffany Strango says. “Essentially, this is his job. He’s like our bus driver. If he worked outside the home full-time,

then we would not be able to accommodate and we’d have to rely on some form of county transportation. There would be a huge population of kiddos we couldn’t allow in our home and that would be one less home for these kids to be able to go.” George Strango’s flexible work schedule was the sole reason they could keep Mr. J in his school of origin, even if it came at a price. “Whether it be us or special transporter, Mr J. got tired of being in the car so long,” Tiffany Strango says. “This is a systemic problem in which we don’t have enough foster homes. Period.” Because of the transportation barrier, foster families like Heather and Scott Peugh are unable to accommodate older foster youth like Mr. J. as they live in Hydesville. Heather Peugh says transportation is a hindrance. “That’s why we only take younger kids now,” she says. “Transportation is our main issue since we live in a rural area. Getting a kid to school in Eureka would prove too difficult.” As the president of Humboldt County Foster Family Association, Heather Peugh is a leading resource for foster families. After a year of being a foster parent, she felt compelled to get more involved because she wanted to see things change. She says that even after they adopted a set of sisters, Ariel and Aurora, they still continued to foster. In their six years of being a foster family, the Peughs have

taken 31 children into their home. “There is 100 percent a need for more foster families,” Heather Peaugh says. “There’s a need to take in all ages. It’s important to have resource families in every part of Humboldt County, from the north to the south, because transportation is such an issue.”

Commutes to school like Mr. J’s are

one of the factors discussed between foster youth coordinators in local school districts when deciding whether to keep a child in his or her school of origin. “A stable education is priority in placement because everything in that child’s life has been interrupted,” says Leah Lamattina, the foster youth liaison coordinator for Eureka City Schools. “Unfortunately, there are not enough foster homes to support the need. If a child is removed from Arcata, that child’s goal is to be able to hopefully be in the same school.” Humboldt County has 31 school districts and, because of Assembly Bill 490, each of them has a designated foster youth liaison. Spread through those 31 districts are a little more than 18,000 students in 88 schools, which is an unusually high number of schools for a population of our size. Lamattina’s Eureka district is not only the largest in the county but also has the highest number of foster youth enrollment, as well as the largest homeless student population. Foster youth travel from as far as Rio Dell, Freshwater and Fortuna just to get to Lamattina’s school. “There’s been a need for foster care families for over a decade and the number of young people in and out of a home situation is on the rise,” Lamattina says. “Other large populated communities have private parties to help with transportation but we don’t have those private parties.” Lamattina says this is a problem statewide but is especially acute in Humboldt County. Factors of isolation, generations of drug abuse and childhood trauma, high poverty and unemployment rates, a lack of access to medical and social services, overrepresentation of Indigenous youth and Humboldt County’s above state average childhood trauma rates are all components that Lamattina says drive the numbers in the foster care system. “Eureka has above state average foster and homeless youth, especially compared to communities our size,” Lamattina says. “We don’t have an effective public transportation system. We definitely could use more bus drivers and funds to foot the bill because transportation support in the district is very expensive.” Other areas of the state are taking proactive steps to address the transportation

needs of foster children. San Diego has emerged as a possible model for other counties across the state on the issue after its office of education conducted a comprehensive needs assessment that looked at transportation, along with other issues. Several San Diego County school districts have now begun including transportation as a school stability resource in their Local Control and Accountability Plans. Other districts “consistently transport students across districts and have cost-sharing arrangements,” according to an article by former Foster Youth Services Director Michelle Lustig. “Many districts are a part of a countywide transportation agreement that enables them to share or leverage their neighbor district’s resources for an agreed-upon cost.” This is something Roger Golec, the foster and homeless youth coordinator for HCOE, says Humboldt County needs. But funding is a problem, says Golec, who works directly with Lamattina and all school liaisons. He says there is $25 million in the state school budget for grant funding to support foster education statewide but how Humboldt County allocates the portion of that money it receives is complicated by the number of districts. One of the problems, Golec says, is Humboldt County is geographically one of the largest in the state and he has 31 school districts in line for funding. Golec says 60 percent of his time is spent just writing grants. Even with this problem, Golec has seen improvements from when he first began working in the education system. When he started 10 years ago as coordinator, he says he was the only employee and had limited funds. Now he says there are four and a half staff members and more funding to incorporate additional staff and data systems. “The foster youth are suffering the most and what we do is support school stability and academic success,” Golec says. “The foster youth are lagging behind their peers and the length the system has been goofed up is how long it will take to make noticeable strides.” One of Golec’s job duties is to help implement legislation. Assembly Bill 337 is currently being considered by the California Legislature and, if passed, will provide schools with additional transportation funding and require counties to provide payments to foster families that “cover the cost of reasonable” transportation arrangements to keep children in their schools of origin. Both Golec and CWS support the bill. Current funding for transportation

is determined by a Local Control and Accountability Plan process, which is how San Diego is front-running its transportation program. Paula Evans, a Foster Care Program consultant for the California Department of Education (CDE), says California is a local control state, meaning local districts have discretionary funding that could go toward transporting foster youth to and from school. But funds are limited. Calla Peltier-Olson, the youth organizer for the Humboldt County Transitional Age Youth Collabroation who is also a board member for California Mental Health Advocates for Children and Youth, works directly with foster and homeless youth to improve local systems and policy. She has worked with Golec since 2009 and says he has been crucial in improving both the foster care system and youth homeless services in Humboldt County. “We just keep having more homeless young people who are chronically homeless.” Peltier-Olson says. “A majority of those in extended foster youth have been homeless or couch surfing at least once in their time here.” Peltier-Olson attributes the rising trend of displaced youth in part to the investi-

found CWS didn’t have enough agents to follow up on abuse and neglect reports, which Peltier-Olson says was due to the lack of resources and a dire need for more professionals in the county. Some progress is being made, though, and staffing levels have increased. Under a newly implemented CWS 24-hour system, there are six social workers and one supervisor specifically assigned to emergency responses to reports of abuse on weekdays from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., with off-hour calls going to on-call staff. DHHS spokesperson Christine Messinger says a number of provisions of the settlement agreement included and simply formalized things the county was already in the process of implementing. The Center for the Study of Social Policy offers regular “progress reports” on the county’s compliance under the settlement agreement with the state. For the most recent monitoring period, the report indicates DHHS, the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and CWS are making progress on coming into compliance with the agreement. While noting that key improvements have been made by CWS regarding onsite training, the report also states that chronic staffing shortages

at CWS are continuing to pose challenges. But things are improving there, too. Messinger says CWS hired 29 social workers who started work last month. Peltier-Olson says there has been some progress but transportation remains a difficult challenge, noting that’s the most consistent feedback her organization receives. “We are poorly equipped to meet the needs of foster youth and the mandate of the state,” Peltier-Olson says. “It takes time to build trust with our most vulnerable population, homeless youth and break barriers. They have experienced so much trauma already in life.”

If California’s Assembly Bill 337 passes

or the county were to adopt its own transportation plan, as San Diego did, then the youth Peltier-Olson works with would have access to reliable transportation, the Peughs would be able to foster school-aged youth and the Strangos could still take in foster kids without the burden of long daily commutes. Even with the issue at hand, Heather Peugh says support has grown for the system since she began fostering in 2012. Specifically, she said there’s better com-

munication between DHHS and foster families, which makes navigating the system easier. “We have seen, from top to bottom, a larger presence in the foster family,” Heather Peugh says. “I think the county has done a good job with addressing issues within the foster care system.” While the number of youth in foster care continues to rise, Phongsavath says CWS uses multiple recruitment tools to find more families that are willing and able to foster. To help spread the word, staff created an informational video posted to the DHHS website that shows a realistic glimpse of what it means to be a foster parent in the area. CWS also attends events year-round, like the county fair and Pony Express Days, and regularly speaks to clubs and religious organizations. “We believe that all of our efforts do reach families,” Phongsavath says. But many believe the most effective recruiting effort is simply word of mouth through foster families like the Strangos and Peughs, who continue to provide a safe space and stable environment for children displaced by traumatic events. As for Mr. J, this year he is enrolled at a school in Eureka, making the lives of Build to edge of the document Margins are just a safe area

Tiffany and George Strango a little more manageable. Tiffany Strango had to speak with attorneys and have a judge sign off on changing Mr. J’s school but she says Mr. J is doing great. He no longer has to spend two hours in a car every day just going to and from school. “He is doing much better and happier in the Eureka school,” Tiffany Strango says. “Before it was school and home and that was it, not much of a social life ... We are super excited for him.” Tiffany Strango says there’s a need for balance when looking at keeping kids in their schools of origin and other aspects. Ultimately, she says, the focus always needs to be on the children and meeting their needs. “If it isn’t working and we are only keeping kids in school of origin because of law then I have an issue,” she says. “But there isn’t anything different the county could have done for Mr. J.” l T.William Wallin is a senior at Humboldt State University majoring in journalism and minoring in Eastern religious studies.

Spicy Chicken Sandwich Envy Where to get the hot stuff in Humboldt By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich at the Alibi. Photo by Jennifer Fumiko Cahill

t Popeyes drive-throughs and glass doors across the country this week, steering wheels were slapped and shoulders sagged as patrons read signs posted by beleaguered employees informing them the Spicy Chicken Sandwich was sold out. For those gentle souls sheltered from the fracas, after the chain introduced its new sandwich — a fried chicken breast atop sliced pickles and spicy mayonnaise on a brioche bun — it got a marketing boost only beef can provide. That is, Twitter shade from competitor Chick-fil-A, which set off a social media dunk fest (hats off to Black Twitter in particular there) and subsequent mass rush to try the sandwich everyone was talking about. (See what you’re missing on Twitter besides presidential proclamations and my wicked gif game?) It also set off a wave of fast food FOMO in Humboldt County, where nary a Popeyes can be found. Even if you braved wildfire driving to Redding, supplies didn’t last. It’s satisfying to see anti-marriage equality donor Chick-fil-A take a whooping and people from every walk of life swept up in excitement over food, but beyond that, I confess it doesn’t inspire the same food envy as reading about a 24hour Korean barbecue place or Italian ice carts. And watching the cresting wave of incoming chains rolling into Humboldt — In-N-Out, KFC, Chipotle, Mountain Mike’s — it’s a little disappointing to think this is the fruit of our collective vision board. Couldn’t we have sent our energy into the universe and manifested a dim sum joint? Some of my inability to get excited over fast food is about the corporatization of our food chain and the crushing of American farmers and restaurant workers, all for food that is fine but seldom as pleasing as a mom-and-pop shop’s,

and followed by minor regret. And, OK, some of it is about that 24-hour bus trip I took to Florida in high school, trapped with the smell of McDonald’s and sweaty classmates. So as much as spicy fried chicken sandwiches have been on my brain, I found myself curious about what restaurants in our county are making from scratch. A couple sandwiches with buzz weren’t available at press time (Southside Mike’s, this isn’t over) but here are a handful of freshly made spicy chicken sandwiches to quell your craving and, unless you’re a better person than me, to lord over your friends in Redding. The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich at Eel River Brewing Co. (1777 Alamar Way, Fortuna) This chicken breast is grilled, then dipped in ERB’s California Blonde Ale batter and fried before it’s thoroughly soaked in the house wing sauce made with chili-garlic sauce and butter, and served with lettuce, tomato on ciabatta ($13.59). It may not be quite as juicy as straight frying but it’s certainly not dry and shows up fast with a hot tang and a crust that magically maintains an audible crunch. The Buffalo Chicken Sandwich at the Alibi (744 Ninth St., Arcata) This is the most Buffalo of the herd, served on a toasted white bun with a fistful of crumbled bleu cheese to take the sting out of what is a fairly hot sauce ($9.25). The house-seasoned panko coating on the breast delivers good crunch and if seeing that red oil seep into the bun doesn’t make your jaw tingle, there’s nothing I can do for you. The Everyday Chicken at Arcata Pizza and Deli (1057 H St., Arcata) Hidden at the bottom of the burger

section is a housemade dupe of Popeyes: a hand-dipped and fried breast atop pickle slices and spicy aioli on a brioche bun ($8.75). The chicken is tender and coated with a simple, crispy, salt and pepper crust. That I find the bun a little too sweet is another reason I’m not a fast food mogul — the ensemble hits all the salty, sweet, fatty and tart buttons. The Fried Red Hot at Burger Joint (835 J St., Arcata) How wholesome can we get? The freerange Mary’s Chicken breast is tasty on its own and only enhanced by the peppery breading and generous splash of Frank’s Red Hot sauce and bleu cheese dressing ($14). Lettuce and tomato are tucked into the seeded bun and a couple of slices of lightly sweet house-brined pickles are speared on top. The sandwich is, as Elvis Presley’s cook Mary Jenkins Langston used to say, “seasoned pretty high,” and well balanced by a side of the excellent sweet potato fries. The Spicy Fried Chicken Sandwich at the Lighthouse Grill (355 Main St., Trinidad) The thickest of them all is right here, a fat hunk of white meat dipped and fried daily that retains its juiciness ($9.99). The battered exterior is hidden, along with bits of smoky bacon (is this … cheating somehow?), by a blanket of melted pepper jack cheese, and is utterly sopped with hot sauce. Don’t be fooled by the pale bun — this one packs a punch and will stain your shirt if you get cocky. l Jennifer Fumiko Cahill is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

e cut from mariachi dancers to the softball diamond. Flat limitless fields, nondescript buildings, canals and barges flicker past. A hopper belches out a river of golden corn. High above the threshing blades, sealed inside an air-conditioned cab, a farmer pilots a mammoth harvesting machine across fields that stretch as far as the eye can see. These are scenes from documentary videos made by Chicago-based artists Ryan Griffis and Sarah Ross that are currently on view at College of the Redwoods Art Gallery. The exhibition, titled “Between the Bottomlands and the World,” consists of three videos made for the nonprofit Regional Relationships, wall-mounted text and documentary photographs. The videos alternate personal reportage with reenacted conversations based on material from interviews conducted by activist and urban planner Faranak Miraftab. These artworks depict facets of a place most Americans have never heard of: Beardstown, an Illinois River hamlet with a population of 6,000 that, the filmmakers make clear, is also “a place of global exchange and international mobility.” The first video “Submerging Land” focuses on the massive infrastructure projects that transformed the swampy landscape of central Illinois in the early 20th century, changing what had been wetlands into a flat, welldrained place that would later be optimized for the bulk production of soy and corn. The second, “Granular Space,” focuses on the millions of bushels of corn Beardstown produces annually, following kernels as they move from field to elevator, to barge and to oceangoing vessel. The third and longest video “Moving Flesh” considers how Beardstown’s demographics and culture have been transformed in the post-NAFTA era by the arrival of thousands of documented and undocumented immigrants from Mexico, Central and South America, Africa, the Caribbean and elsewhere. “Why? What pulls these people here?” one mystified longtime resident asks. Turns out the answer is straightforward: work. Immigrants tell of being hired from their native

countries by outsourced recruiters working for Cargill, which owns the hog slaughterhouse located in Beardstown. The slaughterhouse, the largest of its kind in the country, processes up to 21,000 hogs a day to provide global markets with “meat solutions.” The largest privately held corporation in North America, Cargill is Beardstown’s only major employer other than Wal-Mart. The thousands of mostly dark-skinned workers Cargill has recruited from abroad have transformed Beardstown’s historically segregated population. Now, we learn, the local library staff is trilingual (“We have to be!”); the majority of attendants at daily mass at the town’s Catholic church are immigrants from Africa. Griffis and Ross interview recent immigrants, longtime residents, community organizers, corporate representatives and local journalists in search of answers to the question that motivates their research: “how and why so many people from around the world have come to Beardstown, a formerly all-white, sundown town of 6,000 people.” In doing so they explore the community’s long history of segregation, as well as the racial tensions that have taken hold more recently. Beardstown was a “sundown” town for much of its history — an all-white place that practiced segregation, excluding non-whites via discriminatory local laws, intimidation and violence. (There were 502 such towns, we learn, in Illinois alone.) The older white Beardstown residents we hear from struggle to cope with sweeping demographic and cultural shifts that have reordered the world they once knew, even as they seek to disassociate their viewpoints from the town’s racist past. Several speakers allude to a central paradox: The homogenous, secure small-town existence many elderly people now remember with regret was underwritten with the threat of violence and could only ever have been construed as idyllic for whites. One middle-aged man remembers the Beardstown of his childhood fondly — yet also as a place where black travelers had good reason to fear if they found themselves inside city limits when the sun was going down. He says his hometown was “a good ol’ white American

community — all of our childhood and all of the time we were growing up, there were no blacks in Beardstown.” An elderly woman says simply: “We knew if blacks came to Beardstown they would disappear.” Just as well that the project’s illustrated glossary features a kind of comic subplot in which the artists document some of their largely fruitless efforts to engage directly with major agribusiness concerns. These corporations do not come across as particularly interested in transparency. Several initially grant access to refineries or factories, only to subsequently take it back. At one point a suspicious corporate rep demands, hilariously, “What does this have to do with art?” It’s true. If you were under the impression that art must be the pursuit of the beautiful, the images Griffis and Ross stitch together here leave much to be desired. And yet, how could it be otherwise? The film’s functionalist look crosscuts competently filmed interview footage with sustained frontal shots of flat, monotonous views, featuring a lot of profoundly nondescript landscape from which all traces of biodiversity have been scoured. Only ugly, monotonous images can faithfully depict a place that is this ugly and monotonous by design. One of the points this valuable documentary makes clear is that aesthetics, like the well-being of area residents, played little to no role in the latter-day planning of this modern-day company town. Griffis and Ross show convincingly that that this sparsely populated, immigration-dependent, intensively managed artificial landscape in America’s “heartland” exists and looks the way it does solely to maximize corporate shareholders’ return on investment. That poverty of inspiration shows in every line of the relentlessly functionalist environment and every one of the enormous commodity-producing squares of the grid into which the supine land is carved. The videos by Griffis and Ross in this show can also be viewed at www.regionalrelationships.org/bottomlands.● Gabrielle Gopinath is an art writer, critic and curator based in Arcata.

he Book of Sirach, one of the Books of Wisdom from the Tanakh, tells me that if I conduct my affairs with humility, I will be loved more than a giver of gifts and that I should avoid seeking the things too sublime for me or beyond my strength. For, I am told, “The mind of a sage appreciates proverbs, and an attentive ear is the joy of the wise.” I believe that this is likely all true, however inscrutable it might be in practice for a tin-eared jackass like myself. So I have decided to spend this week listening. To what, you might ask? Well, whatever. You, reader, if you care to drop a line, the wind, the animals, the ocean. Snippets of conversation and calamity out in public. Whatever drifts by. I’ll be an opportunistic feeder, like a fat catfish sitting in a deep hole under a grain loader for the barges. I’ll be the sentient smartphone hearing everything nearby and regurgitating obnoxious suggestions from the poor proxy of meaning I glean out of my spying. I will even try to read some of the articles my friends forward me. And why not? School’s back in session and the human world is learning while the natural world is ripening and getting fat. I might as well get on board. I might even listen to some live music this week and perhaps you will, too. I will close with a favorite quote by Eubie Blake, which seems adjacent to the ancient Sapiential book I quoted earlier: “Be grateful for luck. Pay the thunder no mind — listen to the birds. And don’t hate nobody.”

Thursday If you can’t afford tickets to Mike Love’s road version of The Beach Boys tonight (The Arkley Center for the Performing Arts, 7 p.m., $94), that’s OK. May I suggest you hoof it over to the Siren’s Song for the Humboldt Poetry Show? Sign-ups begin at 7 p.m. and in addition to live art by Dre Meza and record spinning by DJ Goldylocks, there will be a special performance by Richmond, California’s Wonder Twins (free).

Friday There’s a big ol’ loud rock show at the Miniplex tonight at 8 p.m. Southern

HARTYGA plays the Outer Space at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 10 Courtesy of the artists

California quintet and Tee Pee Records recording artists Sacri Monti join neighbors Monarch and local crushers White Manna for a brightly colored night of earwax-dislocating psyche rock. I’ll be there and if the locals remember to bring the fog machine, I promise to set it off a few times ($7).

Saturday It’s another iteration of Radio Clash, everyone’s favorite new wave, punk and ’80s vinyl dance party at the Alibi tonight at 11. ($3). Join DJ Anya, DJ Zephyr and Julie Unrulee at the dark side of the bar, where all cats are gray and Bela Lugosi’s in a permanent state of quantum uncertainty between “dead” and “undead.”

Sunday New York City’s anti-folk, anti-Nazi, leftist collective Out of System Transfer brings a bright semi-acoustic gleam to the age of resistance. Tonight the group will be appearing at Siren’s Song at 7 p.m. for a night of ensemble collectivism. Local posh punk darlings Scum Lourdes pad out the bill nicely (price TBA).

Monday It’s a good night for comedy and the Miniplex has your fix. New York City’s Jake Flores hosts his own leftist podcast Pod Damn America and has made an appearance on Chapo Trap House in the wake of a Cinco de Mayo joke about ICE that was so good it inspired a visit to his home by the Department of Homeland Security. Also on the bill is the massively talented Sara June, whose mere existence as an Iranian-American comedian and writer is undoubtedly a similar obscenity to the pigs who run our increasingly fascist country. Laughter/applause sign buzzes. Local

wizard — the good kind — Dr. Foxmeat opens at 8 p.m. ($5).

Tuesday

Super fucking cool Tuvan band HARTYGA makes its way from its Central Asian home of Kyzyl to our sleepy burg of Arcata to share the mix of throat singing and ensemble rock jazz that earned the group its stripes. HARTYGA — which is Tuvan for “falcon,” a bird of incredible importance to the Turkic cultures of Central Asia — will be sharing the stage at the Outer Space tonight with the woodwind punk jazz action of Arrington de Dionyso’s Malaikat dan Singa, as well as local thrash surfers The Sturgeons. This one’s gonna be an awful lot of weird fun starting at 7 p.m. ($10-$20).

Wednesday

Brooklyn’s Sharon Van Etten is an occasional actress and full-time folk musician whose multi-layered harmonies and prodigious songwriting have earned her worldwide acclaim on the indie darling circuit. If you are a fan of good contemporary folk music or the David Lynch show Twin Peaks (she appeared in an episode of the viciously dark renewal of the series) you should come check her out at the Van Duzer Theatre tonight at 8 p.m. ($30). 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.

Raise your Glass

Garden Delights

There are two events this Saturday worth your attention if you love food and drink and are looking for ways to support local organizations that make Northern Humboldt a wonderful place to live, work and play. Have an elegant evening in Trinidad at Trinidad Coastal Land Trust’s Toast to the Coast on Saturday, Sept. 7 from 5 to 8 p.m. at Saunders Park ($75). The annual gala fundraiser supports the good work the land trust does protecting Trinidad’s coast — more than 25 coastal properties and easements, plus providing coastal education programs. Enjoy a catered dinner, open bar, grilled oysters, live music by the The Sandfleas and perusing auction items near TCLT’s native plant garden. All that in a stunning outdoor setting make for a perfect outdoor evening. A little farther south on U.S. Highway 101 and involving a little more of a leg workout is another sip-and-support-a-good-cause event. McKinleyville’s Corks, Forks and Kegs, a beer and food pairing, happens Saturday, Sept. 7 along Central Avenue from 4 to 8 p.m. ($40, $25 designated driver). Get your commemorative tasting glass and hoof it up and down Central, or hop from destination to destination on the hay-wagon shuttle, sampling drinks and snacks from participating locations. Pick up the event map at the McKinleyville Shopping Center near Cloney’s Pharmacy and at BMW of Humboldt Bay. Folks 21 and up only. ID required at check-in. This event benefits the McKinleyville Lions Club and the McKinleyville Chamber of Commerce.

Summer’s end is nigh and gardens everywhere are beginning their descent into the off-season. But for now, flower and plant blossoms of every color are bursting. Zucchini in myriad forms is making its way into break rooms in offices everywhere or handed off in bags to friends. The bounty of the county overflows. It is a perfect time to traipse through gardens and take in the varieties of flora and enjoy the fruits and vegetables of your (or your neighbor’s) labor. Cooperation Humboldt invites the public to do just that at the fun and informative Edible Garden Tour taking place Sunday, Sept. 8 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. at six garden sites located in Eureka, Freshwater and Arcata. (Tickets are sliding scale and may be purchased at www.cooperationhumboldt.com. Then a map will be emailed to you with locations.) Attendees are encouraged to take their time on this self-guided tour, ask questions and be inspired to create their own food-producing gardens all while enjoying music, refreshments and the opportunity to take home some new leafy friends from on-site plant sales. Carpooling is recommended. The Humboldt Botanical Garden contains the area’s most beautiful and prolific assemblages of plants with 10 stunning and diverse gardens on nearly 45 acres. If you haven’t been for a visit, there’s really no better time than the annual Garden Gala, happening Saturday, Sept. 7 from 1 to 5 p.m. ($60, $50 members, Children 6-21 half price, under 6 free). Walking the gorgeous grounds while enjoying local food, beer, wine and live music makes for a lovely late summer afternoon. There are also fun kids’ activities, a door prize drawing and even art in the garden.

I’ll mow the lawn next weekend. Peanut Butter Falcon

The Champ By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Review

PEANUT BUTTER FALCON. What I tend to think of as healthy skepticism is probably more likely pathological or diagnosable on some sort of spectrum — not particularly healthy, if I’m being honest. And even after a delightful summer of traveling and the passing of time (seeing remarkably few movies, actually), I felt compelled to freight The Peanut Butter Falcon with the fullness of my innate, reactionary cynicism. Even now, I am defensively inclined to stand behind at least my initial reaction based on the briefest of sketches of what the movie might have been. Which, of course, is a little independent drama wherein a bunch of Los Angeles industry wannabes set out into the countryside to show the rest of us how much more in touch they are with the stuff (and people) of Real American Life than we are, meanwhile making a splash with their debut feature. It’s an old formula and one I’ve usually found repellent. Added to this particular mix is a lead actor (Zack Gottsagen) with Down Syndrome, which initially made me concerned somebody — either Gottsagen or the audience or both — might be exploited. And then there is Shia LaBeouf, who I’ve never found especially compelling onscreen and whose postured earnestness and insistence on proving his dedication to The Craft — auditioning for Lars Von Trier via sex tape, having his teeth removed for Fury (2014) — more often than not overshadow the work they are ostensibly in service of. So given just enough information to be a danger to myself and others, I had all but made up my mind about the thing long before the lights dimmed. I may be a skeptic or a cynic or both, but I’ll also rush to admit my own wrongdoing: I was off by about 180 degrees with this one. Don’t judge a book, etc. What I had presumed would be contrived, precious or cloying turns out to be honest, open-hearted and refreshingly

unassuming. It’s a lesson in being open to the experiences and adventures of the wide open world, both for the characters inside the story and for those of us outside looking in. Zak (Gottsagen) dreams of being a wrestler. He watches a VHS of his favorite, the SaltWater Redneck (Thomas Haden Church) on a nearly continuous loop, subjecting his curmudgeonly roommate Carl (Bruce Dern) to the highlights. Young Zak, having become a ward of the state in the absence of family, has been residing for two years in a retirement home against his will. Staffer Eleanor (Dakota Johnson) has taken him under her wing but his repeated escape attempts don’t make her job easy. Especially the attempt, abetted by Carl, that finally succeeds. Alone on foot with no supplies save the pair of briefs he’s wearing, Zak eventually crosses paths with Tyler (LaBeouf), a wayward soul of a different stripe: a fisherman without a license, a boy silently mourning his brother (Jon Bernthal, seen only in wordless flashbacks), a magnet for trouble who can’t leave well enough alone. He’s pursued by Duncan (John Hawkes) and Ratboy (Yelawolf), a couple of shady characters who aren’t exactly wrong to be mad at him. So begins an adventure in friendship through the Outer Banks of North Carolina, very much in the style of Mark Twain (to which Tyler himself alludes). Tyler, planning an escape to Florida, reluctantly agrees to help Zak make his way to the SaltWater Redneck’s wrestling school. Eleanor, assigned to track down her charge so her inept boss can avoid reporting his escape to the state, eventually catches up with the unlikely duo, humoring them in their quixotic quest and gradually coming to understand and join in the familial bond they have formed. Somehow, all of this comes off with such authenticity and humor that The Peanut Butter Falcon never feels af-

ter-school-special preachy, maudlin or mawkish. It doesn’t presuppose or condescend, either, to its characters or its audience, but instead feels wide open, dedicated to the good and faithful telling of a story. It feels lived-in in the best way, with all of the cast giving deceptively easy, natural performances with not a note out of place. The construction and style of the thing, like the acting, are designed to both shore-up and stay out of the way of the story; we rarely see the hand of the creators and in this case it is the perfect approach. It’s possible that the movie’s defiance of my misconceived expectations enlarges its impact. I don’t really care. The Peanut Butter Falcon made me laugh and it made me cry and it made my day.

Out of the Water and into the Sky Mayflies, dragonflies and damselflies By Anthony Westkamper humbug@northcoastjournal.com

Mayflies on the Van Duzen Getting a late start, I made my way down to the river after the sun had gone from the canyon. I noted many tiny flying insects 6 inches on either side of the water’s edge. A spotted sandpiper (Actitis macularius) strolled up the minute beach pecking here and there as it went. The insects I saw were small mayflies, thousands of them. This order, ephemeroptera (meaning “brief wing”), along with odonata (dragonflies and damselflies) are part of the division palaoptera (early wing). Members of this group were ancient before the first vertebrate ever took flight. In fact, it might have been the ready supply of food in the air that gave the earliest flying vertebrates the evolutionary edge they needed to succeed. These insects spend one to two years as naiads (larva) in the water feeding on detritus and algae before emerging, shucking off their larval shell and flying off as “sub-imagos.” Almost immediately they molt a second time into their fully adult reproductive form. No other order of insects molts a second time after getting functional wings. As I watched, the small shore bird made its way up the water’s edge pecking here and there at the tiny insects. A spider’s web was festooned with their struggling bodies. Throughout the year, various species’ “hatches” occur on different dates. Sometimes millions fill the sky and they can be tracked by weather radar. Adults are easily recognized by their habit of holding their triangular wings over their back and the distinctive two or three cerci (tails). Since they have such a brief time to leave the water, find a mate and lay eggs, they seldom stray far from their native streams.

Damsels vs. Dragons Although close relatives (order odonata) that live very similar lives, there are

some differences between damselflies and dragonflies. Both groups spend the majority of their lives as aquatic larvae breathing water. They are all hunters but with varying specialties. Some hide in the detritus in the bottom of ponds, others swim freely like tiny fish and still others stalk prey through submerged weeds and algae. The exception is an ancient group of dragonflies, the petaltails. They spend their juvenile years amphibiously, in wet burrows on mud banks and bogs often venturing out at night to hunt. Damselflies belong to the sub order zygoptera, meaning “same wing,” referring to the fact that the front and hind wings are roughly the same size and shape. Their bodies are slenderer, their eyes are usually shaped like commas laying on their sides and they can all fold their wings over their backs when at rest. One group characteristically holds their wings out from their bodies, giving them their family name spreadwing. In dragonflies (sub-order Anisoptera, meaning “different wing”), front and back wings are shaped differently and always held out flat away from their bodies when at rest. Their bodies are heavier and their eyes often resemble a football helmet, covering most of their head. Damselfly larvae are slender and sport three petal-like gill appendages on their tail through which they breathe oxygen from the water. Some use them as swimming fins as well. Juvenile dragonflies have no such flaps but can dart very rapidly, expelling water from their rear ends like a jet boat. Being at or near the apex of the insect food chain, the population and diversity of these critters can be used to gauge the health of a water course. l Read more of Anthony Westkamper’s HumBug column on Sundays at www.northcoastjournal.com.

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.

By Rob Brezsny

Homework: Saul Bellow wrote, “Imagination is a force of nature. Is this not enough to make a person full of ecstasy?” Do you agree? FreeWillAstrology.com

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com ARIES (March 21-April 19): John Muir (1838–1914) was skilled at creating and using machinery. In his 20s, he diligently expressed those aptitudes. But at age 27, while working in a carriage parts factory, he suffered an accident that blinded him. For several months, he lay in bed, hoping to recuperate. During that time, Muir decided that if his sight returned, he would thereafter devote it to exploring the beauty of the natural world. The miracle came to pass, and for the rest of his life he traveled and explored the wilds of North America, becoming an influential naturalist, author and early environmentalist. I’d love to see you respond to one of your smaller setbacks — much less dramatic than Muir’s! — with comparable panache, Aries. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Of all the children on the planet, 3 percent live in the U.S. And yet American children are in possession of 40 percent of the world’s toys. In accordance with astrological omens, I hereby invite you to be like an extravagant American child in the coming weeks. You have cosmic permission to seek maximum fun and treat yourself to zesty entertainment and lose yourself in uninhibited laughter and wow yourself with beguiling games and delightful gizmos. It’s playtime! GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The ama are Japanese women whose job it is to dive to the bottom of the sea and fetch oysters bearing pearls. The water is usually cold and the workers use no breathing apparatus, depending instead on specialized techniques to hold their breath. I propose we make them your inspirational role models. The next few weeks will be a favorable time, metaphorically speaking, for you to descend into the depths in quest of valuables and inspirations. CANCER (June 21-July 22): Renowned Cancerian neurologist Oliver Sacks believed that music and gardens could be vital curative agents, as therapeutic as pharmaceuticals. My personal view is that walking in nature can be as medicinal as working and lolling in a garden. As for music, I would extend his prescription to include singing and dancing as well as listening. I’m also surprised that Sacks didn’t give equal recognition to the healing power of touch, which can be wondrously rejuvenating, either in its erotic or non-erotic forms. I bring these thoughts to your attention because I suspect the coming weeks will be a Golden Age of non-pharmaceutical healing for you. I’m not suggesting that you stop taking the drugs you need to stay healthy; I simply mean that music, nature and touch will have an extra-sublime impact on your well-being. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): If you visualize what ancient Rome looked like, it’s possible you draw on memories of scenes you’ve seen portrayed in movies. The blockbuster film Gladiator, starring Russell Crowe and directed by Ridley Scott, may be one of those templates. The weird thing is that Gladiator, as well as many other such movies, were inspired by the grandiose paintings of the ancient world done by Dutch artist Lawrence Alma-Tadema (1836–1912). And in many ways, his depictions were not at all factual. I bring this to your attention, Leo, in the hope that it will prod you to question the accuracy and authenticity of your mental pictures. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to get fuzzy and incorrect memories into closer alignment with the truth, and to shed any illusions that might be distorting your understanding of reality. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I don’t know if the coming weeks will be an Anais Nin phase for you. But they could be if you want them to. It’s up to you whether you’ll dare to be as lyrical, sensual, deep, expressive and emotionally rich as she was. In case you decide that YES, you will, here are quotes from Nin that might serve you well. 1. It is easy to love and there are so many ways to do it. 2. My mission, should I choose to accept it, is to find peace with exactly who and what I am. 3.

I am so thirsty for the marvelous that only the marvelous has power over me. Anything I can not transform into something marvelous, I let go. 4. Life shrinks or expands in proportion to one’s courage. 5. It was while helping others to be free that I gained my own freedom. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “When you’re nailing a custard pie to the wall and it starts to wilt, it doesn’t do any good to hammer in more nails.” So advised novelist Wallace Stegner. I hope I’m delivering his counsel in time to dissuade you from even trying to nail a custard pie to the wall — or an omelet or potato chip or taco, for that matter. What might be a better use of your energy? You could use the nails to build something that will actually be useful to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “I hid my deepest feelings so well I forgot where I placed them,” wrote author Amy Tan. My Scorpio friend Audrey once made a similar confession: “I buried my secrets so completely from the prying curiosity of other people that I lost track of them myself.” If either of those descriptions apply to you, Scorpio, the coming weeks will be an excellent time to secure a remedy. You’ll have extra power and luck if you commune with and celebrate your hidden feelings and buried secrets. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “No Eden valid without serpent.” Novelist Wallace Stegner wrote that pithy riff. I think it’s a good motto for you to use in the immediate future. How do you interpret it? Here’s what I think: As you nourish your robust vision of paradise-on-earth, and as you carry out the practical actions that enable you to manifest that vision, it’s wise to have some creative irritant in the midst of it. That bug, that question, that tantalizing mystery is the key to keeping you honest and discerning. It gives credibility and gravitas to your idealistic striving. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The coco de mer is a palm tree that grows in the Seychelles. Its seed is huge, weighing as much as 40 pounds and having a diameter of 19 inches. The seed takes seven years to grow into its mature form, then takes an additional two years to germinate. Everything I just said about the coco de mer seed reminds me of you, Capricorn. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you’ve been working on ripening an awesome seed for a long time, and are now in the final phase before it sprouts. The Majestic Budding may not fully kick in until 2020, but I bet you’re already feeling the enjoyable, mysterious pressure. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you throw a pool ball or a bronze Buddha statue at a window, the glass will break. In fact, the speed at which it fractures could reach 3,000 miles per hour. Metaphorically speaking, your mental blocks and emotional obstacles are typically not as crackable. You may smack them with your angry probes and bash them with your desperate pleas, yet have little or no effect. But I suspect that in the coming weeks, you’ll have much more power than usual to shatter those vexations. So I hereby invite you to hurl your strongest blasts at your mental blocks and emotional obstacles. Don’t be surprised if they collapse at unexpectedly rapid speeds. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the 13th century, the Italian city of Bologna was serious about guarding the integrity of its cuisine. In 1250, the cheese guild issued a decree proclaiming, “If you make fake mortadella . . . your body will be stretched on the rack three times, you will be fined 200 gold coins, and all the food you make will be destroyed.” I appreciate such devotion to purity and authenticity and factualness. And I recommend that in the coming weeks, you commit to comparable standards in your own sphere. Don’t let your own offerings be compromised or corrupted. The same with the offerings you receive from other people. Be impeccable. l

CAR SHOW

CRUZ’N THROUGH OLD TOWN

cruzneureka.com

Welcome to Cruz’n Eureka! 26 YEARS AGO the vehicle cruise scene had

become an issue on Fourth and Fifth streets. All three lanes, both northbound and southbound, were often full of gear head car people. For all practical purposes it was a huge social gathering on a Friday night, sometimes lasting into the early morning. We suspect the powers-that-be were forced to do something and created an ordinance prohibiting cruising in Eureka.

cruzneureka.com

The event that was to become Cruz’n Eureka benefiting our local Boys & Girls of the Redwoods was started as a car show in Henderson Center. It was created by a small group headed by former City of Eureka policeman and later city council member Lance Madsen (a champion for Boys & Girls Club, who has since passed). The event was held in

The corsair 671 diesel streamliner, Built at College

of the Redwoods in 1971-72 with Bob Haveman, as the diesel instructor with the students of his diesel engine repair class. The streamliner was run at Bonneville, Utah, and held many land speed records. Ultimately, it was recorded going 247 mph (in one section it was clocked at 274 mph), however to secure the record, one must run the opposite direction, in one hour in that run, the Turbo boost hose blew off and the car naturally ran slower. The net recorded speed ended being 207 mph.

This record stood for 30+ years. The car had an aluminum 671 that was laid on its side with a dry sump oil system. It also has four wheel drive. It was originally burgundy in color.

Leon Warmuth of Leon’s Car Care Center ( Muffler’s )

donated most of the tubing for the frame and such others included. The Warmuth family is very proud to see the car back home.

SPECIAL PULL-OUT SECTION NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Sept. 5, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

Henderson Center for a couple of years, but at some juncture the event was handed over to Laurie Thietje-Furtado. Laurie and her group of friends made the event a fundraiser for the Make-A-Wish® Foundation for more than 10 years. Eventually, the event got too big for Henderson Center and moved to Halverson Park. Here the event grew into a great cruise route through Old Town. The Car Show expanded to encompass Second Street from C to G streets, with a sock hop and poker run. Laurie was aware of Dale Warmuth and Sondra Kirtley’s involvement with Boys & Girls Club of the Redwoods and asked if they were interested in taking the

Scrapper’s Edge is proud to support Cruz’n Eureka

event back. They, along with Tim O’Brien, his wife Teresa and Jason Henderson (who since passed) took on the event. Since then, Cruz’n Eureka evolved into a three day festival. Over the past several years we have raised over $200,000 for Boys & Girls Club of the Redwoods.

I hope you’ll join us in our interest in cars as we support kids’ welfare here on the North Coast. For more information, call 4411030 or visit cruzneureka.com
