Today we stand on the precipice of a nuclear war with Russia (Mailbox, Oct. 6). What is astonishing, is the complete si lence from the liberals and progressives in this country. Where are the gray ponytails? The Humboldt Honeys? The Vietnam War protestors? We have been involved with a proxy war against Russia via Ukraine, and there is nothing but crickets from the left. We have no national interest in Ukraine. Ukraine is not a NATO nation, yet we have sent them over $80 billion worth of military hardware and money in less than a year. I have never liked Putin, he is an exKGB chief. But in inserting ourselves into this war, we are putting our nation, our lives, the lives of our children in mortal danger. Russia is a nuclear super power. They are not El Salvador, Grenada or Iraq. Our “President” Biden has managed to destroy our economy, create shortages of baby formula, opened our borders and has allowed over 2 million illegal immigrants into our country. We went from being energy independent to energy dependent. Our fuel here in Humboldt is often at $7 a gallon. Instead of protesting this war, we are consumed with the “right” to kill our babies in the womb, and freaking out over a fish farm in Samoa. TDS has blinded the left. Just roll another joint.
Omberto Silva, Rio DellEditor:
I’m writing in response to lamentations about losing our view of the “pristine” Pacific (Mailbox, Oct. 27) due to offshore wind turbines. It’s true that, on those rare days when the fogbank is pushed 20 miles out, we will be able to see the turbines on the far horizon from an elevation of 40-plus meters — but not below that, where most of us view the ocean. Even so, it is a small price to pay. The world’s seas are no longer pristine, but are well into
All the pain we feel Is best left by the river, With babbling brooks.
— Kirk Gothierbeing acidified by our carbon loading of the atmosphere. The sea’s degradation is not localized like our aesthetic “payment” will be. And since it is an aesthetic price, it is subjective. I, for one, like the way an array of wind turbines looks and the way I feel when I see them — as evidence of progress against climate change and ocean acidification.
We North Coasters, with the material advantage of being able to choose to live here in this economically, aesthetically and climatically privileged region, are uniquely positioned to help save the oceans for ev eryone — not just for our local aesthetic pleasure. It’s a small sacrifice, well worth making.
The death of the oceans would be a global catastrophe, and practically per manent. By comparison, losing the fondly remembered views of the few is inconse quential. When better solutions are found, the turbines can be removed and their underwater structures can remain as the artificial reefs they will have become.

It’s di cult for housing advocates to criticize Gov. Gavin Newsom because he’s done more to boost production than any other governor in recent memory — but that’s mostly because the bar is so low.
Measured against the goal he set for himself, Newsom’s record is less impressive. Just 13 percent of the 3.5 million homes he campaigned on building have been permitted, let alone built. He’s walked back the goal many times, settling on a new target earlier this year: Cities need to have planned a combined 2.5 million homes by 2030. So, a million fewer homes planned for, not built, and over a longer time frame.
Newsom can point to some accomplishments: He signed bills that capped big rent hikes statewide, legalized duplexes and fourplexes on most developable land and unlocked millions of potential apartments on empty strip malls. He sheltered tens of thousands of people experiencing homelessness amid a generational pandemic and dedicated more dollars to housing and homelessness than ever before.
But as he finalizes his first term and seems poised to coast into a second, Newsom finds himself mired in an even deeper housing and homelessness crisis than the one he inherited.
Running for governor in 2017, then-Lt. Gov. Newsom pledged to spur a never-before-seen tsunami of homebuilding in California to bridge the gap between the growing population and shrinking stock of housing driving the a ordability crisis.
“As governor, I will lead the e ort to develop the 3.5 million new housing units we need by 2025 because our solutions must be as bold as the problem is big,” Newsom wrote on Medium.
The goal was true to character: big, hairy and audacious. It would have required building an average of 500,000
homes a year in a state that has only surpassed the 300,000 mark twice in more than 50 years.
Newsom didn’t get even close.
In the nearly four years since he took o ce, California cities are projected to have permitted a total of about 452,000 homes — less than he pledged he’d build in one year alone, according to local data collected by the Construction Industry Research Board.
When asked about his shortcomings at a recent press conference, Newsom wrote o his original goal as he has many times before, by paraphrasing Michelangelo.
“The biggest risk in life, however one defines risk, is not that we aim too high and miss it. It’s that we aim too low and reach it,” Newsom said. “It was always a stretch goal.”
Housing advocates acknowledge that policy change is by nature slow and incremental, and like many other proposals, long-term housing goals took a backseat to the COVID-19 pandemic.
But the reality on the ground — that there aren’t enough houses for everyone and the ones that exist are hideously expensive — continues to exasperate Californians who repeatedly rank housing and homelessness among their top concerns.
State Sen. Brian Dahle, the Republican candidate for governor, and other state Republicans have routinely attacked Newsom’s record on housing, including calling for a special session on homelessness.
“We need government to treat this the way we treat a natural disaster, because that’s how it’s impacting people’s lives,” said Chione Lucina Muñoz Flegal, executive director of Housing California, a housing advocacy organization. “And that’s not what we see happening.”
Housing policy advocates described Newsom’s stated goal of 3.5 million new
homes in four years the same way he has: aspirational. They say that’s because the state doesn’t build housing in Cali fornia — private developers do, with the approval of local governments. So what really grabbed advocates’ attention was the “Marshall Plan for affordable housing” Newsom pledged to launch during his inaugural speech, recalling the multi-billion dollar program to rebuild Western Europe following World War II.
“As much as the number was important, the idea of building a streamlined process of building, that was amazing, because that’s really the challenge of California,” said Dan Dunmoyer, president of the Cal ifornia Building Industry Association. He said that dream remains elusive.
California has some of the highest housing costs in the nation because of how little “marshaling” there is, Dunmoy er said. Land costs are prohibitive, and zoning rules limit much of what can be built. Housing must get approved at the local level, which has ample opportunity for community input. Those communities can then block unpopular projects, such as multi-family or affordable housing. Another culprit: impact fees cities charge to fund infrastructure that can exceed $150,000 a home, some of the highest in the nation.
The closest Newsom may have gotten to bulldozing those barriers is Project Homekey. After COVID-19 hit, the admin istration scrambled to turn 94 hotels and motels into more than 6,000 shelter units for people experiencing homelessness, which would later become permanent homes, within record-setting months. The projects bypassed local land use rules and a marquee environmental law often blamed for slowing or killing controversial projects. The state has since expanded the $800 million project with more than $2.75 billion in new funding.
Newsom signed more than a dozen bills
allowing housing types that met certain conditions to skip lengthy approval pro cesses at the local level. Two are expected to have the biggest impact: one which legalized duplexes and fourplexes on the two-thirds of developable land in Cali fornia previously zoned for single-family homes, and another that allows apart ments on land previously allotted for retail centers, parking lots and offices along arterial roads retail centers, parking lots and offices along arterial roads.
While a zoning change doesn’t build housing, it’s a first step to making it legal. Combined, the two laws could open up previously blocked space for more than 2 million housing units.
“The effect of legislation is often hard to prove, because it’s only one factor of many in the development process,” said Louis Mirante, vice president of public policy at the Bay Area Council. “To stop a project, you only need one red light. But to make a project go, you need at least 100 green lights. A lot of the legislation the governor has been signing has been those green lights.”
But yellow and red lights abound, in cluding rising interest rates and prohibitive material costs. While it took political cour age to sign a controversial measure like the one streamlining duplex and fourplex construction, Newsom remained largely quiet on those bills until they reached the finish line, and hasn’t championed a more sweeping production policy proposal on his own.
“He can step in and resolve the prob lems if he really wanted to prioritize the issue,” said Chris Martin, policy director at Housing California. “He has the power to do it but politically, it’s challenging. He’s going to have to make some uncomfort able decisions.”
While Newsom has repeatedly called the 3.5 million goal taken from a 2016 McKinsey study a moonshot, he has put his weight behind another number: 2.5 million. That’s how many homes the Legislature has mandated California cities to plan for by 2030, and Newsom’s team is making sure they do.
“Before we can reach our stretch goals, before you can reach the moon, you’ve got to get off the launch pad,” said Jason Elliott, Newsom’s senior counselor on housing and homelessness.
The planning law has been on the books for decades, but it wasn’t until 2017 that the state Legislature gave the process teeth by creating standards and penalties cities must abide by. The plans for the housing that those standards and penal ties apply to weren’t even due for most cities until this year. And the deadlines are different for different regions. It’s a slow process.
Cities now have to zone for more than double the housing they did in previous years, and it has to be on sites where housing could actually be built. And if they don’t do it, they risk losing affordable housing dollars or even forgoing housing approval decisions.
But having laws on the books — even if they feature new penalties — doesn’t mean anything unless someone is there to enforce them.
To that end, Newsom staffed up a $4.65 million accountability and enforcement unit within the housing department, with reinforcements at the state’s Justice Department. Cities seem to be paying heed, but it’s all fun and games until actual homes get built.
“For many years in California, the Re gional Housing Needs (Allocation) process was an afterthought at best,” Elliott said. “It was not taken seriously because there were largely no consequences for local governments failing to meet their respon
sibilities. And that’s not ancient history, but through a very concerted effort by this governor and the administration in partnership with the Legislature, RHNA is now very serious. And I think communities are taking it seriously.”
But planning isn’t building, and a recurring complaint about the process from cities is that while it requires a lot of affordable housing to be planned for — 1 million of the 2.5 million units must be affordable to the lowest earners — the state doesn’t provide nearly enough tax credits and other subsidies to build it.
“We’re funding a quarter of that, at best,” said Paavo Monkkonen, associate professor of urban planning at University of California at Los Angeles’ Luskin School of Public Affairs. “So that’s an interesting conundrum, where their own goal is unat tainable. And there’s not really a Manhat tan Project to make that happen.”
With the Legislature, Newsom has dedicated unprecedented dollars to affordable housing, including $10.3 billion in 2021. Funding the current affordable housing need alone, however, would require nearly $18 billion a year over a de cade, according to a recent estimate from Housing California and California Housing Partnership. And there is no long-term source of funding for housing in California. As budget projections for next year sour, affordable housing advocates worry those funds might dry up.
“In these years of good budget outlook, the administration has done a really good job,” said Marina Wiant, vice president of government affairs at the California Hous ing Consortium, a non-partisan housing advocacy organization. “It’s going to be interesting to see what they do when they have to make tough budget choices.” l

The Humboldt County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday decided not to censure Super visor Michelle Bushnell after an outside investigation found she mistreated an employee during a meeting last December, with several of her fellow board members citing the Second District representative’s efforts to address the situation, including attending trainings.
In a 4-0 vote, with Bushnell abstain ing, the board instead moved to receive and file the investigation’s findings. The censure — a largely symbolic gesture that basically amounts to a public reprimand — would have required a two-thirds vote.
“It has already been adjudicated in my mind,” Third District Supervisor Mike Wilson said, echoing similar sentiments expressed by supervisors Rex Bohn and Steve Madrone, who said he “applauded” Bushnell for “recognizing [her] part in this.”
Before the discussion started, Bushnell offered to answer any of the other super visors’ questions. She also noted she went to mediation in this case and there were “a lot of allegations,” with this being the “one finding” sustained by the investigator.
The item was based on a grievance filed by a county planner late last year, alleging

Bushnell interfered with the issuance of a cannabis permit on behalf of a constituent and then acted unprofessionally — berat ing staff — in a meeting with the appli cant, the planner and Planning Director John Ford.
An outside investigation found Bushnell violated two sections of the board of supervisors’ code of conduct: to practice civility and decorum in discussions and debates and to support a constructive and positive workplace for county employees.
A summary of the findings prepared by Watsonville-based attorney Richard E. Nosky, who conducted the inquiry, states the employee played “a large role in pro voking Bushnell and created an awkward and hostile tone for the meeting,” but “Bushnell’s reaction to the employee was not representative of model conduct for an elected official.”
Nosky noted that Bushnell acknowl edged her behavior was inappropriate and took responsibility for her actions — which Madrone also referenced in his comments.
The complaint against Bushnell was the first to go through a new process approved by the board of supervisors in April, when supervisors unanimously

approved revamping the board’s code of conduct, which included having employee grievances reviewed by a three-person committee consisting of the county administrative officer, county counsel and the human resources director, who will de cide whether a formal investigation should be launched.
If an investigation then substantiates
the underlying allegations, as was the case here, that would be reported to the board in open session.
Previously, such grievances were brought to the board of supervisors first in public session, which the board and staff said raised confidentiality concerns.

“It’s one step at a time.”
S.B. 1383 will fortify Humboldt’s food recovery systems and network of nonprofits.
By Iridian Casarez iridian@northcoastjournal.comEdible food recovery isn’t a new concept in Humboldt County.
Many local nonprofit organizations already have a system in place to take food donations from grocery stores and restaurants, and use it to feed those in need. Food for People, Hum boldt’s principal food bank, estimates 336,000 to 500,000 pounds of donated food are collected per year from busi nesses. But with the passing of California Senate Bill 1383 mandating the creation and regulation of this type of program, Humboldt’s food recovery systems will only become more efficient and orga nized, creating a more robust countywide program.
In the five years Grocery Outlet in McKinleyville has been open, it has reg ularly donated leftover food to multiple community organizations like Food for People, Arcata House Partnership, the Salvation Army and even a pig farm.
“There’s quite a bit of food we’re able to donate, non-perishables, food that has an expired expiration date or that has damaged packaging but is still safe to eat,” said owner Annica Powell. “It’s great. We love being able to help our community.”
Twice per week, the Salvation Army picks up food donations from a bin at
Grocery Outlet and takes it to their food pantry to feed people using their services.
“Humboldt County is already set up for success,” said Monica White, a sustainabil ity manager with Edgar and Associates, a consulting firm based in Sacramento that specializes in solid waste management, recycling, composting and renewable ener gy issues. Edgar and Associates wrote an S.B. 1383 compliance roadmap and helped various Humboldt County cities meet important deadlines earlier this spring.
S.B. 1383 is aimed at diverting methane emissions generated by rotting organic materials, like food and green waste, in landfills by requiring cities to offer organic waste curbside recycling and create a food recovery program in which businesses like restaurants and grocery stores, as well as schools and hospitals, donate leftover food to local shelters and food pantries instead of throwing it away.
The law states California must divert 20 percent of edible food currently being dumped into landfills by 2025. If Hum boldt County can divert 20 percent of its edible food to local food pantries instead of the landfill, about 1.43 million pounds of food would go to those in need.
Although S.B. 1383 is designed as a climate change bill, it will have a dramatic
impact on social services in a state with one of the highest per-capita homeless populations. In Humboldt County, 15 percent of the population lives in poverty and 18 percent of the population is food insecure, higher than the national average of 12 percent.
“It’s exciting,” Robin Praszker, city of Eureka Community Services Department’s environmental project manager said. “There’s going to be a lot of extra food in the community. There’ll be more access to nutritious food, especially in rural areas of the county.”
S.B. 1383 requires all “Tier 1 food gen erators,” meaning larger grocery stores, wholesale food distributors and super markets, to begin donating leftover food (prepared food, packaged foods, produce, including food that can’t be sold because it’s past the sell-by date but still otherwise safe to eat) by Jan. 1. “Tier 2 food genera tors,” which include restaurants with more than 250 seats or larger than 5,000 square feet, hotels with more than 200 rooms (hotels and businesses on tribal lands are exempt from S.B. 1383), health facilities like hospitals, with more than 100 beds, large venues and state and educational facilities with large cafeterias, must begin donating leftover food that’s safe to eat by 2024.
“Food recovery is different, it’s a lot to chew on,” White said. “This legislation is the first of its kind and there’s a big lift that has to happen to get everyone on board.”
Each city in the county is responsible for educating Tier 1 and Tier 2 food gener ators in their jurisdiction about S.B. 1383’s food recovery requirements. And as part of enforcing S.B. 1383, California’s Depart ment of Resources Recycling and Recov ery (CalRecycle) requires routine reporting and audits of businesses, local nonprofits and food pantries to hold stakeholders accountable and ensure everyone is fol lowing the law.
Edgar and Associates created the county’s initial S.B. 1383 compliance plan back in June and now Abound Food Care, a sub-consulting group of Edgar and Asso ciates, has put together the county’s food recovery capacity plan.
As part of the initial capacity plan, CalRecycle asked jurisdictions to submit data and estimates of how much edible food within their jurisdictions needs to be diverted to meet the state’s 20-percent goal. Cities, however, have never needed to track detailed data on the amount of edible food that’s thrown away, nor the
amount that’s been saved and donated to nonprofits, but CalRecycle found a few different ways this data can be calculated to give estimations.
One estimation method relies on waste characterization studies and waste dis posal records to calculate how much food waste must be diverted. Using CalRecycle’s most recent disposal reporting service records and its 2018 facility-based charac terization of solid waste study, Abound Food Care found that Humboldt County disposed of 3,588 tons of edible food in 2018. So, Humboldt County would need to divert an estimated 718 tons (about 1.43 million pounds) of food per year to meet the state’s goal.
The final draft plan has been officially received by the Humboldt Waste Man agement Authority Board of Directors. The plan is an outline and a resource for all Humboldt County cities and jurisdic tions to use as a guide for implementing a robust food recovery system and meeting the state’s goal. The plan sets up shortterm and long-term goals that focus on supporting the nonprofits, food pantries and local businesses to begin creating a more efficient food recovery system. This plan is the first step toward building a countywide, collaborative program.
Abound Food Care and Edgar and Asso ciates met with local cities and the county in the past few months to talk about the plan, offer edits, ask more questions and discuss how they’ll take a regional approach to creating a food recovery program.
“The conversation is really about implementing regional coordination,” said Praszker. “We have all this information (in the plan), now how do we go about implementing it?”
In the plan, Abound Food Care esti mates there are approximately 39 non profit food recovery organizations and pantries — including Food for People, the Eureka Rescue Mission and Yurok Food Distribution — currently conducting food distribution or food services in the county.
The report found that a lack of cold-storage capacity, limited pantry space, staffing shortages, a reliance on volunteers, few funding opportunities, a shortage of trucks, limited storage locations and little to no software to document the incoming and outgoing food donations make food recovery more challenging for local nonprofits.
Abound Food Care estimates there are as many as 54 Tier 1 food generators (gro cery stores, wholesale food distributors, and supermarkets) required to have food donation programs in Humboldt County. About 33 of those are already participating in food recovery programs and 21 will need
to begin soon. Each jurisdiction is respon sible for enforcing S.B. 1383 mandates, and ensuring businesses and nonprofits in their city are following the law.
Businesses that aren’t currently partic ipating in a donation service told Abound Food Care that they often don’t have enough extra edible food to donate or that they compost/repurpose their excess food. If businesses don’t have leftover food to donate, they must provide proof through an audit executed by the enforce ment agency (the city or jurisdiction in which the restaurant is located).
Abound Food Care also estimated there are about 154 Tier 2 food generators required to participate in food recovery programs in Humboldt starting in 2024. Of those, 47 are already participating, 61 need to begin participating and 46 did not respond to Abound Food Care’s survey. Most of the county’s Tier 2 food genera tors are schools.
The city of Fortuna is one of a few cities in the county that has passed an or ganic waste collection and food recovery ordinance, which includes enforcement provisions.
“The [city of Fortuna] will conduct inspections, remote monitoring, route reviews or waste evaluations, and compli ance reviews, depending upon the type of regulated entity, to determine compliance, and if the city determines that … commer cial edible food generator, food recovery organization, food recovery service, or other entity is not in compliance, the city shall provide educational materials to the entity describing its obligations under this Chapter and a notice that compliance is required by Jan. 1, 2023, and that violations may be subject to administrative civil pen alties from the city starting on Jan. 1, 2024,” the ordinance states.
Businesses not in compliance with this mandate risk an administrative citation from the city. An administrative fee in For tuna is $100 for the first violation, $200 for the second and $500 for the third offense within a year.
The challenges of Tier 2 food gen erators (restaurants, school cafeterias and hospitals) are different from Tier 1 generators because their food is already cooked as meals, so it is more difficult to repurpose or store at proper temperatures for it to be safe for consumption after it’s donated.
The survey found the Tier 2 genera tors that aren’t participating either did not have extra food to donate, compost leftover food, don’t know the types of food they could donate or have staffing challenges that would hinder the donation
processes.
The plan outlines various actions jurisdictions can take to begin implementing S.B. 1383’s food recovery program. Abound Food Care suggests starting slow by having jurisdictions support Food for People’s current e orts by providing funding for the nonprofit to hire a warehouse coordinator and food donation pick-up drivers, as well as to buy refrigerated trucks to help with the increased volume of food that will come from S.B. 1383.
Abound Food Care also suggests cities provide funding for smaller food pantries to buy cold-storage trucks, scales, backup generators and supplies, like food recovery kits that come with thermometers, freezer bags and freezer blankets.
Another recommendation in the report called for the county to invest in a third-party, on-site food safety training and auditing program that will help businesses and nonprofits better understand how to safely handle food, and how to track where donations are going and coming from. This would help with the extensive reporting requirements of S.B. 1383.
Abound Food Care also recommends the county create an independent food recovery administrator position, which would manage the food donation program
sta ed by the Humboldt County Environmental Health Division, the report states.
The longer-term strategy and goals include finding ongoing, consistent funding to continue supporting the network of nonprofits and businesses in the food recovery plan.
During a Sept. 29 HWMA and Solid Waste Local Task meeting, Frank Nelson, operations manager for Recology, talked about how Recology’s general manager came up with the idea of finding creative funding sources to help with S.B. 1383 food recovery compliance. Nelson said Mendocino County had taken advantage of state Fish and Wildlife Department grants to build refrigeration plants, adding that the county’s fishing industry could potentially need more cold storage in the future, just like the county’s food distribution network. This necessity could possibly lead to a partnership between the two services to meet regional demands.
White and Mike Learakos, CEO of Abound Food Care, caution against finding grant funding to sustain these types of programs because grants are like “happy hour food,” which isn’t very sustainable.
“There are multiple revenue streams,” Learakos said. “We can’t look for one quick ATM machine to fund this. There is a lot of cost-benefit in this program. And
and assist with onboarding businesses, identify the needs of the food recovery network as the program expands and be responsible for educating food pantries on the tracking and reporting processes of S.B. 1383. This position could potentially be
we look at cost beneficiaries, we look at potential revenue streams. It’s in our best interest to — to [Wise’s] point — yes, let’s go beat the bushes. Let’s go look for alternative ways of funding.”
White then agreed and said there were
also U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development grants to build more homeless shelters that could also connect with S.B. 1383’s goals of getting more food
a member of the Eureka City Council and the HWMA board chair, said. “To me, the sooner we can start to bridge those con versations and really talk about the food
to people in need.
White said providing funding for non profits and food pantries is just one of the ways jurisdictions can support nonprofits, but support can be more creative. For ex ample, it can look like restaurants provid ing rented refrigeration space for a food pantry to store food. It can also look like a shared delivery and distribution route between businesses and nonprofits. For example, if a restaurant or business is pick ing up food from one part of the county, it could help a nonprofit with delivery in the same area.
“It’s opportunities like this within a county like Humboldt, that’s fairly rural, that we can really expand on and that really serves as a very good way to reduce the cost of compliance by bringing other private industries into this that can partici pate in a philanthropic way or help reduce sort of that cost. So, instead of having to buy refrigeration [space], you can rent space within entities that have existing capabilities,” White said during the Sept. 29 meeting.
Creating a food recovery system is a matter of building relationships among stakeholders, businesses and nonprofits.
“There is a real opportunity here to reach out to Fisher People’s Association, the food policy council, the North Coast Growers Associations,” Leslie Castellanos,
system as a whole, the better [we’ll be]. I do think a lot of these issues are kind of co-occurring across the county, especially the cold storage and transportation.”
White said Humboldt County is already set up to have a strong food recovery network, not only because of all the food recovery that’s already happening in the county but also because each city and the county are eager to work together to create one.
Humboldt County is in the very early stages of fortifying its food recovery programs and has much more to do, but, in the meantime, the Solid Waste Local Task Force will continue to meet to look at implementing more support services using a regional approach and discuss how each jurisdiction can use their resources to create a solid food recovery program. l

Ashowcase of local Native art, Recalling from the Source at Cal Poly Humboldt’s Goudi’ni Native American Arts Gallery features a mix of traditional and contemporary art practices, materials, symbols and themes, and includes Native artists at all levels of experience. The ex hibition includes more than 30 artists with objects as diverse as delicately beaded jewelry and sculpture, evocative abstract paintings, exquisite woven baskets, moving personal mixed-media works, handmade garments and a large representation of Tony Soprano.
Brittany Britton, director of the Gou di’ni and Reese Bullen galleries, explains the show’s origins date all the way back to the late ’80s. From the Source was an annual showcase of local Native art orga nized through Humboldt Arts Council and then the Ink People. This year marks the first year it’s being held at the Goudi’ni, which turns 10 this season and is the only Native-focused gallery in the California State University system. Britton says the transition to Goudi’ni makes sense this year, with a change in leadership at the Ink People coming at the same time as the re opening of campus galleries, which closed during the pandemic. She says the show offers an opportunity for the local Native artist community to “check back in” during this time of readjustment for everyone.
“Recalling From the Source offers a snapshot of Native arts in our commu nity,” Britton states. The work for the show was gathered through an open call. All Native artists living in the area were welcome to contribute and Britton, along with established participating artists like Alme Allen, reached out to emerging art ists, sometimes discovered through word of mouth, sometimes through Instagram. Britton notes their common goal of pro moting and encouraging younger and less experienced artists.
Britton says the show gives a sense of the visual aspects of local Native culture: colors, themes and symbology. The exhi bition includes the work of artists with a huge range of experience. Prominent and
acclaimed artist Brian Tripp, who died last May, has art in the show, as does Cal Poly and Indian Tribal and Educational Personnel Program student Charlena Valencia, painter of “Tony Soprano,” who took Beginning Painting at Cal Poly last semester.
Cal Poly student Elin Perry, who attended the opening of the show, described the expe rience as “impactful,” noting the interesting combination of historical and modern themes in the exhibition.
Fellow student Juan Leon-Castillo helped hang the show in Berit Potter’s Museum and Gallery Practices class. He said the class used equations to position the art at the proper heights and worked together to make sure everything was straight and centered.
Both students commented on the col orful and detailed acrylic paintings of Lyn Risling, which combine geometric pattern ing with animal imagery in vast landscapes. Perry was struck by the use of color, particularly the combinations of purples and oranges. Leon-Castillo, too, remarked on Risling’s use of color, describing lines of transparent color interacting with layers of differing values.
Exhibiting artist Julian Lang echoed Britton’s sentiments, emphasizing the opportunity for the community to come together through the show, and the im portance of encouraging emerging Native artists. He describes how Tripp, who was involved with From the Source from its early days and first incarnations, worked to gather artists from around the community for the annual exhibition.
Lang, a local Native language and cul ture teacher, has two pieces in the show: one narrative and the other more abstract. The narrative one depicts a creation story in which the moon has three wives: grizzly bear, rattlesnake and frog. Lang’s artistic practice includes two different approach es, one planned and one intuitive. For the intuitive process, he marks up the blank
canvas or board with a spontaneous kind of splash and then lets the work tell him what it is. Perhaps a story comes to mind, he says. Sometimes though the work is non-figurative. He describes these non-fig urative images as biomorphic, and says this style of drawing extends back to his early drawings from the ’80s and ’90s, and they tell a pictographic story. Lang explains this method of working allows a message to be revealed to the artist through the creative process.
Lang has his own message he wishes to communicate to younger artists — a shout-out, he says, encouraging them to continue to make art. He says it is import ant that art be a part of the discussion of Native lives because, “Our belief says we are descended from a creative spirit, Ikxaréeyav.” For him, it is important to seek out that spirit. “We hold secrets,” he explains, “that we don’t even know exist.”
Art is the way to access those secrets.
“The message comes through the creative spirit.”
Recalling From the Source is open through Nov. 19. Goudi’ni Native American Arts Gallery is located near the corner of Union and 14th streets in Arcata, on the first floor of the Behavioral and Social Sci ences Building, BSS room 104. The gallery is open Wednesdays and Thursdays noon to 6 p.m., Fridays 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturdays 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., and by appointment. l

Lyn Risling’s (Karuk, Yurok, Hupa) “Achiphaan (center man),” painting, 2019. Photo by L.L. KessnerOne of the most popular fish eries on the North Coast will commence Saturday, on time, albeit with a few temporary regulation changes. Due to presence of humpback and blue whales and the potential for entanglement from trap gear, the California Department of Fish and Wildlife restricted the recreation al take of Dungeness crab using crab traps statewide. However, the recreational take of Dungeness crab by other methods, including hoop nets and crab snares, is not affected by the temporary trap restriction. I’d say we’re batting .500 as the season could have easily been delayed as is the case with the commercial fleet south of the Sonoma/Mendocino county line. Their season was to begin on Nov. 15, but the high number of whales shut them down. So, hoop nets it is, and there are some changes to those regulations as well that anglers need to be aware of. They include:
• Hoop nets are required to be regularly serviced every two hours;
• Design modification specs to prevent the device from functioning as a crab trap that could incentivize longer soak periods;
• Reduce the weight of the hoop net, thereby posing less harm to an entangled whale or sea turtle should that occur.
• Expand current gear marking require ments for hoop nets used south of Point Arguello, Santa Barbara County, to apply statewide, which will aid in identifying this gear type for enforcing these require ments and identify hoop nets involved in entanglements.
• For specific hoop net requirements, visit wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Ocean/Regu lations/Sport-Fishing/Invertebrate-Fish ing-Regs#crustaceans.
The season’s first traps can legally be deployed at 12:01 a.m. Saturday morning. Anglers, weather permitting, will get their first peek into the health and weight of this season’s crop as the pre-season quality tests have not taken place or the results have yet to be made public. One thing we do know is the domoic acid levels won’t
be an issue. Statewide testing is nearly com plete with zero percent of the sam ples exceed ing or even coming close to action levels.
The season runs from Saturday, Nov. 5 through July 30, 2023. The minimum size is 5 ¾ inches measured by the shortest distance through the body from edge of shell to edge of shell directly in front of and excluding the points (lateral spines). The limit is 10 and a valid California sport fishing license is required but an annual crab trap validation is not required when taking crabs with hoop nets or crab loop traps.
Ocean conditions don’t look good for Saturday’s crab opener. As of Tuesday, elevated seas are in the weekend forecast. Saturday’s forecast is calling for northwest winds 5 to 10 knots with northwest waves 10 feet at 12 seconds. Winds will pick up Sunday, coming out of the southwest 10 to 15 knots with northwest waves 15 feet at 15 seconds. These conditions can and will change by the weekend. For an upto-date weather forecast, visit weather. gov/eureka or windy.com. You can also call the National Weather Service at (707) 443-7062 or the office on Woodley Island at (707) 443-6484.
• Sat., Nov. 5: high: 10:35 a.m. and 11:02 p.m.; low: 4:01 a.m. and 4:54 p.m.
Standard time begins at 2 a.m. Sunday
• Sun., Nov. 6: high: 11:08 a.m. and 11:57 p.m.; low: 4:44 a.m. and 5:39 p.m.
The Smith remains closed due to low flows as of Tuesday and it doesn’t look like it will meet the 600 cubic feet per second threshold on the Jed Smith gauge prior to the weekend. Flows are predicted to peak at 700 cfs by Saturday evening before it drops again on Sunday. River forecast levels can be found here: cnrfc.noaa.gov/ graphicalRVF.php?id=CREC1.
Heavy rain later this week is expected to push the Chetco into prime shape for fall salmon by next week reports Andy Martin of Wild Rivers Fishing. “Until then, anglers are limited to bobbers, which have been effective in tricking salmon holding in the tidewater holes,” said Martin. “Big numbers of salmon are spread from the U.S. Highway 101 bridge to Social Security Bar, with wild and hatchery adults and lots of jacks. Troll ing has been slow in the estuary. The big gest rise in flows is expected to take place next Wednesday, although earlier forecasts of rain this week failed to materialize.”

Alarge group of pelicans has been called a “brief,” “pod,” “pouch,” “scoop” or “squad ron.” July through November is peak season locally for viewing brown pelicans in numbers at my favorite location at the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary.
On the Endangered Species list until 2009 due to the effects of pesticides, these long-lived (25 to 30 years) birds are the only pelican species we’re likely to see locally. They head south to nest in the winter to Southern California and Mexico. Other good viewing opportuni ties can be found along Elk River Slough and the Hikshari’ Trail in south Eureka, Humboldt Bay piers and pilings, and at river mouths along the ocean. I recently saw a large “squadron” gracefully gliding by Wedding Rock at Sue-meg State Park.
The next time you see brown pelicans diving for fish, watch carefully to see how they twist their bodies, heads and that large bill to the left as they “crash” into the water with a splash to pursue small fish. Using their keen eyesight to spot prey and diving from high up, they use the force of their impact in the wa ter to stun the fish and then scoop them up. According to local bird-guidebook authors Burton & Anderson, this behav ior is known as “plunge diving,” a method shared with osprey, terns and belted kingfishers. According to other sources, the brown pelican tucks its head and rotates its body to the left to cushion its
trachea and esophagus on the right side of the neck from the impact. Air sacs beneath the pelican’s skin cushion the impact and help it resurface.
Brown pelicans are described as “a comically elegant bird with an oversized bill, sinuous neck, and big, dark body,” on allaboutbirds.org. But Burton & Anderson suggest these unmistakable large birds with a huge wingspan should be called gray pelicans, as only the juveniles are brown. Mature Pacific Coast males and females both have white heads with pale yellow foreheads, a dark reddish-brown color on the sides of the bird’s neck, a grayish bill, gray and dark brown streaks on the back, rump and tail, black ish-brown breast and belly, pale yellow eyes, and black legs and feet.
Now fairly common in the U.S., brown pelicans nearly disappeared from North America in the 1960s and 1970s because of the effects of DDT and other per sistent pesticides. According to bir dadvisor.com, brown pelicans incubate their eggs by covering them with their webbed feet. The pesticides caused thinning eggshells that cracked under the weight of their parents’ feet.
The brown pelican’s long beak measures approximately 9 inches with a hooked tip. The huge skin pouch suspended from the lower half of the hooked bill is used as a dip net and can hold a gallon of water and fish. Pelicans squeeze the water out from the corners of their pouch before they swallow their
catch. They don’t carry fish in the pouch, but in the gullet or esophagus. The pouch also serves as a cooling mecha nism in hot weather, and as a feeding trough for young pelicans.
Another favorite moment for me is after brown pelicans land in the water and begin taking a bath. They duck their heads down and vigorously flap their wings, splashing water in all directions. When they dry off, they use glands to oil their feathers.
And FYI, about that well-known limerick supposedly by Odgen Nash, my online search says author C. M. Marshton is the leading candidate for creator of this poem in 1913:
A gorgeous bird is the pelican, Whose beak will hold more than his bellican. He can put in his beak Food enough for a week. But I’m d— if I see how in hellecan.
Advice for photographing birds in the wild: Try to photograph flying birds with the sun at your back and a fast shut ter speed to freeze the action (in this case, 1/4000th of a second with Shutter Priority for exposure and burst mode). Practice panning to track the bird’s flight and anticipate peak action like diving into the water or taking flight. l

There are a lot of bold ideas in North Coast Repertory Theatre’s production of Gaslight that will likely come to fruition in the run On opening night, I was left with fewer answers and unresolved in trigue. However, what is theater that does not risk or dare and inspire questions of its audience? This is one of the many we are left with after the performance.
Gaslight by Patrick Hamilton is a 1938 thriller that inspired two movies and im bedded itself into American vernacular to define psychological violence that seeks to brainwash its victims and make them question how they view reality. The story itself is a definition of the modern term and is a reason to see the show. NCRT’s version brings a show set in the late 1800s to modernity and, in its casting decisions and preshow trigger warning of “white man on Black woman violence,” gives it new relevance and checks a box for diversity. NCRT also took care to invite the Humboldt Domestic Violence Ser vices team on the night I attended. Both decisions set the tone for a certain level of intensity.
Bella (Olive Dunn) and Jack (Jonathan Moreno) live in their three-story home where paintings move, lights flicker, pa pers vanish and medication is the answer. Their relationship is strained by these hap penings as Bella is forced to believe that
she and her mental disposition are to blame. She is in a spiral where truth is confiscated and alternative facts amplified by Jack’s dominance. Their maid Nancy’s (Sara Jane) — um — strong enticement of Jack adds to their tension and is another truth disavowed by her husband. With the help of Bella’s more benevolent maid Elizabeth (Heather Hulbert) and a lively inspector (Noel August), explanations, his tory and protection are afforded to Bella to help her understand the reality behind her ailments.
Though all the actors have good moments, it is a challenge to understand what is individually at stake for them. The dynamics necessary to create the proper tension needed for the thriller are flatlined. I wanted more: more mania, more fight with a clear understanding of what it would mean to lose, more exas peration that leads to a greater release when scenes subside and more unpredict ability. I never felt fear for any character, neither in the circumstances of the play, nor the blocking meant to heighten the danger. As a result, some powerful lines and phrases, like, “My emotions are running high,” and “My cold and calcu lating tone,” feel like they are gaslighting the audience as they are delivered in opposition to the actors’ states. The inconsistency invites an over-examination of other aspects of the production that
would normally be masked in the heights of the thriller. The Slytherin green set design by Kelly Hughes coupled with an amazing chaise lounge (that I want in my house) and impressive décor in the room is gorgeous. What is beyond the doors and where are the curtain rods, though? The text at times seemed in opposition to the design, and an inexplicable couch in the audience that may have been part of the set felt like an afterthought or maybe a last-minute change that couldn’t be carried backstage. The costumes by Olivia Gambino are stunning, particularly Nancy’s, which highlight her duplicitous character. Dunn’s blushed dress that spoke to Bella’s battle with fatigue. Yet, a couple pairs of pants and some stylings make me question not only the era, but the characters of the actors who wore them. Still, the lighting design by Brian Butler sufficiently followed the cues the script asked for and the incomparable Anna Gillespie does an incredible job of ensuring the proper touch needed to maintain the drama of the scenes in deli cate transitions. Hughes as director, stage manager, sound designer, properties, set construction and scenic designer does an admirable job wearing all those hats.
The story is timeless, and told in a way that helps people understand why the term “gaslighting” is so provocative and relevant today as it pertains to many
silenced experiences. It names an often misunderstood abuse and witnessing the show through this lens adds to its ne cessity. The questions and conversations that will undoubtedly arise from the ex perience need examination and are well worth the discussion and ticket price.

OK, I’ll cop to it: I partied hard for the long Halloween weekend and I am definitely behind the count in every way at the moment, dear reader. Plus, I’ve been taking some Ls in the private life department and, while I have sure found ways to buttress my sti upper lip lately, I am currently paying for it on the backend. Thankfully, I have a great many lovely friends who happily chau eured me around while I curated my private degradation. Anyway, I titled this week’s article after a favorite Pixies song because: a) it rocks; b) there is a wave of pretty decent events out there of which you can partake in; and c) I feel really gross right now, I’m ready, as Black Francis sings, to “kiss mermaids and ride the El Niño. Walk the sands with the crustaceans.” The only way out of one of these cycles is through it, so please wish me luck as I enter November blasting my favorite songs and going for cold beach walks.
Cheerio.
New venue alert. Well, new to this column, anyway. Humboldt Bay Provisions is throwing a comedy night this evening at 6:30 p.m. and $5 will get you in the door. The event is going to last an hour and a half, which is either just right or excruciating, depending upon the quality of the acts, which I am told might be a bit ribald. Only one way to find out.
Kanekoa is a ukulele jam band from Maui. I don’t normally go in much for jam bands, except for a few Gov’t Mule songs because they are heavy enough to satisfy my tastes. However, I am lured by the beauty of the tropics at this moment in the year and, having some beloved Hawaiian family who married into my life, I will give this show the thumbs up. Humbrews is the spot, 8 p.m. is the time and, if you don’t buy your advance tickets for $20, expect to pony up an extra $5 at the door.
This is the packed-action night of the week, so I’m going to suggest two separate shows, both of which look really good and are within spittin’ distance of each other (but don’t do that, there’s still a pandemic on). Over at the Morris Graves at 6 p.m., I am told by my email pen pal friend John Dillon that his band Inscrutable Rabbit will be playing a set of mostly original tunes, which considering that the rest of the lineup is full of some considerable local veteran talent, ought to be good and, as it’s Arts Alive, free to all comers.
Later on at 9:30 p.m., the Shanty is hosting Silver & Nails and my one of my absolute favorite local bands, Blackplate will also be holding court in the band nook near
the entrance. This one’s free, too, mes amis
Martin Sexton, the Piscean singer-songwriter and self-made musician, with a DIY career stretching back to the ’80s, is coming over to the Arcata Theatre Lounge to roost for the night at 7 p.m. ($30 seated, $35 standing room). Do you like soulful vocals over plaintive songs about love and hardship? Yes, you do. Come on down.
I don’t usually like to write about sold-out shows but this one still has some meet-andgreet tickets available, so I have the feeling that if you show up, you might be able to snag a general admission ticket. If not, mea culpa Andrew Callaghan is the comedian behind the hilarious Channel Five YouTube phenomenon, in which our protagonist puts on a suit and, armed with nothing other than a camera and a microphone, wades into terrible places (Trump rallies, QAnon meetings, anti-mask protests) to interview some of the bright stars and everyday people of our current American intellectual discourse. He’ll be at the Arcata Theatre Lounge tonight at 7 p.m. and, while I’m hoping that there are still some general tickets for the early birds, expect to fork over $75 for the meet and greet.
Je rey Lewis is the spiritual successor to all the best things that New York City rock and roll has to o er. From Lou Reed to The Ramones, this fellow is channeling the howling ghosts of the Big Apple. He’s playing the Miniplex tonight, with his band The Voltage Local support will be o ered by the excellent act Los Perdidos and Insects on the Bough, about whom I know nothing but am happy to learn at 8 p.m. ($12, $10 advance).
Austin, Texas, was a haven for live music about 10 years ago, back before the entire country got gentrified and venture capital decided to make all of our lives constantly terrible. From that stew rose Urban Heat, a post-punk trio that plays it heavy and heartfelt. At 7 p.m., the band will be hitting the stage at the Arcata Theatre Lounge, and if you didn’t snag the quickly evaporating $15 advance tickets, expect to pay $20 at the door. ●

Ican’t pretend there is any cohesive theme — any connectivity, really — to the movies I will set out to briefly discuss here, except that they have all been backburnered in an uncharac teristic pursuit of the horror genre in the past month. Being a contrarian reactionary, I may willfully not watch horror movies when everyone suggests I should; or at least that used to be the case. As my brain and body soften with the ravages of time, I may become more susceptible to suggestibility; it remains to be seen.
After a brief era of abundance for mid-level scary stuff that appeared to utter its death rattle around the time the plague introduced a degree of real horror to our lives, there had (has?) been a fallow period. The case could certainly be made that, in the great reshuffling of the movie business, genres have simply been further compartmentalized — read: have left the multiplex — and require a greater degree of interest and perspicacity to find them. Which, of course, is in some ways a great balm to whatever lobe of the nerd brain that never fully recovered from the loss of video stores. Entire streaming services now serve as the rightful heirs to the genre shelves some of us so reverently haunted, lo those lost decades. All the same, the
mainstream boom of the 2010s would seem to have largely subsided. Barbarian may well be the notable exception but I have yet to see it. And now it’s available on a streaming service.
Anyway, I spent much of October in a nostalgia haze, reveling in the ingenious, handcrafted spatter served up by our glo rious benefactors at the Criterion Channel. But, as the season of the witch returns to its sepulcher, I can briefly recount a few movies I’ve recently watched that are neither from the ’80s nor specifically seasonal.
DEAD FOR A DOLLAR. Walter Hill keeps making movies and for that I applaud him. One of the few remaining journeyman moviemakers, a veteran of the rougher factory days of the Hollywood es tablishment, he is/was also a hitmaker of the 1980s, blurring the line between pulp/ genre and mainstream with a style that de fined the decade as much as anyone’s. As a writer and director, he made four movies in as many years that continue to be imitated: The Driver (1978), The Warriors (1979), The Long Riders (1980) and 48 Hrs. (1982). Meanwhile, he was also co-creating the Alien juggernaut. The man has cred.
Granted, this was all 40 years ago and some might argue that at some point
aging creatives should shuffle off and give way for the youngsters. Regardless, Hill keeps working. And more power to him, I say, even if my feelings about his late period work are mixed.
I may have missed the point of Bullet to the Head (2012) when I saw it, or it may be that Hill’s B-movie tendencies just didn’t transition as well as one would hope to the big screen of the 21st century. And The Assignment (2016) is likely too problem atic to survive close scrutiny, even half a decade later. But I’ll celebrate both as evidence that there may yet be space in the world for movies that will never gross a billion dollars.
Dead for a Dollar is decidedly of this camp, a Western almost as old-fashioned in its execution as its setting. I say almost because the digital photography of the piece, with its limitless depth of field and disorienting clarity, creates a neural disconnect, a documentary vividness, that belies its genre roots. Rachel Brosnahan, Christoph Waltz and Willem Dafoe star in an antebellum kidnap/revenge melodrama that remains memorable in part for its weirdness. R. 107M. AMAZON PRIME.
PIGGY is the closest thing to a straight-ahead horror movie on this list, but even as it cleaves to its origins, it uses genre to explore the notion of misplaced justice and bullying from the perspective of the victim. Written and directed by Carlota Pereda, Piggy centers on Sara (Laura Galá in a quietly astounding performance), the daughter of a butcher who is cruelly teased by the cool girls but might have an anonymous avenger lurking on the fringe. Pereda chooses to guide the narrative back into safe territory with the climax, which is a little disappointing after the boldness and verisimilitude leading up to it. But that is more than forgivable, given the immersiveness of the piece as a whole. (In Spanish with subtitles.) NR. 99M. AMAZON PRIME.
THE STRANGER. Written and directed by Thomas M. Wright, starring Joel Edger ton and Sean Harris, The Stranger is the most highly stylized mainstream movie I’ve seen since Blonde, using music and editing with a Villenuvian cultivation of dread and unease. Elliptically describing one segment of a nationwide Australian manhunt for a child abductor, it is equal parts low-key crime drama and psychological realism. Some might call it overwrought but I would say its artifice almost perfectly serves its narrative. TVMA. 117M. NETFLIX.

“We know now that the railroad should have gone east to Red Bluff.”
— Dan Hauser, former NCRA executive director, 2022
Last week, we looked at the 1907 decision to route Eureka’s railroad connection with the outside world down the Middle Fork of the Eel River. It was problematic from the start. For many years, Northwestern Pacific Railroad repair crews were out every day during win ter months. Quoting railroad researcher Josh Buck (now director of the Clarke Museum), “floods of biblical proportions, one of which caused over 30 miles of track to be swept away in a matter of days, proved to be tre mendously detrimental to the railroad.” Fur ther north under the Scotia Bluffs (another dubious choice of route, deserving a column of its own), three railwaymen lost their lives in January of 1953 when a massive landslide swept the 80-ton locomotive in which they were riding into the Eel River. You can see a monument honoring them in Fortuna.
For a while, the profits from hauling Humboldt’s redwood timber south overshad owed the cost of maintenance. However, within a couple of decades of its completion, the Northwestern Pacific started to run into competition from truckers on the newly completed Redwood Highway. Locomo tive-hauled passenger service ran until the early 1950s, followed by two decades of self-powered “Budd” cars. Built by Phila delphia’s Budd Co., each car combined a 200-horsepower diesel motor with a passen ger compartment. The last scheduled Eureka to Bay Area passenger car ran in 1971. Local historian Jerry Rohde recalls taking a special day-excursion to Fort Seward in 1991 — the last time passengers rode along the Eel River — when two diesel locomotives hauled eight vintage passenger cars for the occasion. Speed was often limited to 20 mph due to the poor state of the line.
Freight traffic, always the mainstay of the route, continued, even as repeated landslides caused costly delays and repairs. Finally, on February 17, 1998, an El Niño storm event triggered many huge slides and washouts in the canyon. They were the final straws for
the proverbial camel and trains would never again run from Eureka to the Bay Area. As a reminder of what once was, four (originally five; one was dismantled) marooned diesel electric locomotives still sit forlornly on Eureka’s balloon track, legacies of the unsuc cessful attempt by NWP’s ultimate succes sor, the North Coast Railroad Authority, to restore service. Another entire 10-car train still sits on the rails just south of the Island Mountain Bridge.
Should those engineers have picked the alternative route down the Eel South Fork?
In 1953, catalyzed by the prospect of a dam in the Eel River Canyon, engineers for the NWP surveyed three other routes, west of the South Fork, between South Fork and the Middle Fork, and east of the Middle Fork.
That study was ultimately shelved, citing cost reasons. In the eyes of the NWP, it was more cost-effective to keep repairing the existing route than to invest in a new one. In any case, then-Governor Reagan finally nixed the dam project in 1969, and legislation is now in place to prevent any more talk of damming the river, while Friends of the Eel and other environmental organizations are currently calling for the removal of two existing dams upstream of the Eel Canyon.
I still try to imagine what would have happened if they’d chosen to follow the route of present-day U.S. Highway 101. Would bypassing or tunneling through the 1,800foot Rattlesnake Summit (north of Layton ville) have been more of a challenge — and maintenance problem — than the Eel canyon route? Would Confusion Hill have been a deal-breaker? Would the geology of the South Fork have been even more unstable than that of the main channel? (Or, per Dan Hauser, quoted above, was neither route the right choice?) In any case, advocates of the proposed 316-mile-long Great Redwood Trail along the former NWP right of way may soon be facing the same challenges in the Eel River Canyon.
May they have better luck than those hardy old-time railroad pioneers. l

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the coming weeks, I encourage you to work as hard as you have ever worked. Work smart, too. Work with flair and aplomb and relish. You now have a surprisingly fertile opportunity to reinvent how you do your work and how you feel about your work. To take maximum advantage of this potential breakthrough, you should inspire yourself to give more of your heart and soul to your work than you have previously imagined possible. (PS: By “work,” I mean your job and any crucial activity that is both challenging and rewarding.)
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here’s my weird suggestion, Taurus. Just for now, only for a week or two, experiment with dreaming about what you want but can’t have. And just for now, only for a week or two, go in pursuit of what you want but can’t have. I predict that these exercises in quixotic futility will generate an unexpected benefit. They will motivate you to dream true and strong and deep about what you do want and can have. They will intensify and focus you to pursue what you do want and can have.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your most successful times in life usually come when all your various selves are involved. During these interludes, none of them is neglected or shunted to the outskirts. In my astrological opinion, you will be wise to ensure this scenario is in full play during the coming weeks. In fact, I recommend you throw a big Unity Party and invite all your various sub-personalities to come as they are. Have outrageous fun acting out the festivities. Set out a placemat and nametag on a table for each participant. Move around from seat to seat and speak from the heart on behalf of each one. Later, discuss a project you could all participate in creating.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): A Cancerian reader named Joost Joring explained to me how he cultivates the art of being the best Cancerian he can be. He said, “I shape my psyche into a fortress, and I make people feel privileged when they are allowed inside. If I must sometimes instruct my allies to stay outside for a while, to camp out by the drawbridge as I work out my problems, I make sure they know they can still love me—and that I still love them.” I appreciate Joost’s perspective. As a Cancerian myself, I can attest to its value. But I will also note that in the coming weeks, you will reap some nice benefits from having less of a fortress mentality. In my astrological opinion, it’s PARTY TIME!
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo poet Antonio Machado wrote, “I thought my fire was out, and I stirred the ashes. I burnt my fin gers.” I’m telling you this so you won’t make the same mistake, Leo. Your energy may be a bit less radiant and fervent than usual right now, but that’s only because you’re in a recharging phase. Your deep reserves of fertility and power are regenerat ing. That’s a good thing! Don’t make the error of thinking it’s a sign of reduced vitality. Don’t overreact with a flurry of worry.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Virgo author Siegfried Sassoon became renowned for the poetry he wrote about being a soldier in World War I. Having witnessed carnage firsthand, he became adept at focusing on what was truly important. “As long as I can go on living a rich inner life,” he wrote, “I have no cause for complaint, and I welcome anything which helps me to simplify my life, which seems to be more and more a process of eliminating inessentials!” I suggest we make Sassoon your inspirational role model for the next three weeks. What ines sentials can you eliminate? What could you do to enhance your appreciation for all the everyday miracles that life offers you?
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): You Libras have a talent that I con sider a superpower: You can remove yourself from the heart of the chaos and deliver astute insights about how to tame the chaos. I like that about you. I have personally benefited from it
on numerous occasions. But for the next few weeks, I will ask you to try something different. I’ll encourage you to put an emphasis on practical action, however imperfect it might be, more than on in-depth analysis. This moment in the history of your universe requires a commitment to getting things done, even if they’re untidy and incomplete. Here’s your motto: “I improvise compromises in the midst of the interesting mess.”
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Fear is the raw material from which courage is manufactured,” said author Martha Beck. “Without it, we wouldn’t even know what it means to be brave.” I love that quote—and I especially love it as a guiding meditation for you Scorpios right now. We usually think of fear as an unambiguously bad thing, a drain of our precious life force. But I suspect that for you, it will turn out to be useful in the coming days. You’re going to find a way to transmute fear into boldness, bravery, and even badassery.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): For decades, the Canadian city of Sudbury hosted a robust mining industry. Deposits of nickel sulphide ore spawned a booming business. But these riches also brought terrible pollution. Sudbury’s native vegetation was devastated. The land was stained with foul air produced by the smelting process. An effort to re-green the area began in the 1970s. Today, the air is among the cleanest in the province of Ontario. In the spirit of this transformation, I invite you to embark on a personal reclamation project. Now is a favorable time to detoxify and purify any parts of your life that have been spoiled or sullied.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): The literal meaning of the ancient Greek word aigílips is “devoid of goats.” It refers to a place on the earth that is so high and steep that not even sure-footed goats can climb it. There aren’t many of those places. Similarly, there are very few metaphorical peaks that a determined Capricorn can’t reach. One of your specialties is the power to master seemingly improbable and impassable heights. But here’s an unexpected twist in your destiny: In the coming months, your forte will be a talent for going very far down and in. Your agility at ascending, for a change, will be useful in descending—for exploring the depths. Now is a good time to get started!
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Evolved Aquarians are often blessed with unprecedented friendships and free-spirited intimacy and innovative alliances. People who align themselves with you may enjoy experimental collaborations they never imagined before engaging with you. They might be surprised at the creative potentials unleashed in them because of their synergy with you. In the coming weeks and months, you will have even more power than usual to generate such liaisons and connections. You might want to make a copy of this horoscope and use it as your calling card or business card.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I surveyed the history of literature to identify authors I consider highly intuitive. Piscean-born Anais Nin was my top choice. She used language with fluidity and lyricism. She lived a colorful, unpredictable life. No one better deserves the title of Intuition Champion. And yet she also had a discerning view of this faculty. She wrote, “I began to understand that there were times when I must question my intuition and separate it from my anxieties or fears. I must think, observe, question, seek facts and not trust blindly to my intuition.” I admire her caution. And I suspect it was one reason her intuition was so potent. Your assignment, Pisces, is to apply her approach to your relationship with your intuition. The coming months will be a time when you can supercharge this key aspect of your intelligence and make it work for you better than it ever has before. l

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property 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 property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. 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 information. 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 TENANT: You may have the right to purchase this property after the trustee auction, pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 530-246-2727; Toll Free: 844-333-6766, or visit this internet website: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS#21-2855, to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the street address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase.
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 Website: calforeclosures.biz, using the file number assigned to this case: TS #21-2855. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Website. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property 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 property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. 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 information. 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.
Thefollowingspacesarelocatedat 180FStreetArcataCA,Countyof Humboldtandwillbesoldimmedi− atelyfollowingthesaleofthe aboveunits.
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 (707) 444-9281. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

We are sad to announce the passing of Lawrence “Larry” Joseph Hourany, PhD of McKinleyville, CA. Larry passed at the age of 86-years old on October 05, 2022 surrounded by his daughters, brothers and sisters. He passed away in the place he loved the most, Humboldt County.
Larry was born in New York and moved to California when his parents moved Larry and his siblings to California in the 1950s where they first settled down in El Cerrito. The family then moved to Walnut Creek where Larry worked in the family grocery store called the Willow Tree. After graduating from El Cerrito High with high accolades in basketball (one of his many loves in life), he attended Diablo Valley College to pursue a degree in higher education. However, Larry was drafted into the US Army where he served as a neuropsychiatric specialist for two years. After leaving the Army he continued pursuing a degree in higher education, receiving a Bachelor’s from San Francisco State University, his Master’s from San Jose State University and his PhD in Psychology from the University of Western Ontario, Canada. After graduating, he became a professor, focusing his teaching in the areas of Child and Geriatric Psychology. Larry worked as a professor at various Universities including Cedar Crest College in Pennsylvania and San Jose State University in California before retiring. He was a philosopher and scientist, always searching for equality in humankind. Larry was a well-respected teacher with many published works. Most of all, his gift for giving back was unparalleled, especially for those in need. It was his greatest motivator in life.
Larry chose McKinleyville to call home and was passionate about serving on the Grand Jury for many years. This is where he met and helped form a group with other intellectuals from the Grand Jury, meeting for years once per week for group discussions on many world topics. Life-long friendships were formed. Larry was an avid chess player all his life, sometimes playing online throughout the night. His life story is long, however, for his family who loved him most, it wasn’t long enough. He is survived by his two daughters, Raelene and Kari, his sisters Francene and Diane, brothers Dennis and Lance, and his grandchildren Taylor and Chase. In lieu of a service any donations may be made to his favorite organizations: AHHA at https://www.ahha-humco. org/volunteer or Veterans for Peace at https://www. veteransforpeace.org/donate/donate-veterans-peace.
On 14 October 2022, Roy Camozzi passed peacefully, surrounded by family, at the age of 90. Roy was born on 20 January 1932 to Joseph and Olga Camozzi. He was raised with his older brother, Raymond, in Bodega, California. He graduated from Tomales High School and attended San Francisco State University where he ran track and played baseball. Baseball was a life-long passion embraced as player, coach, umpire, and fan.
Roy was an avid outdoorsman and especially enjoyed fishing and hunting. As a young man, he sold firewood, worked at a lumber mill, and for the Smith Brothers fishery in Bodega Bay. Later, he worked for 30 years with California Fish and Game. He especially enjoyed driving tanker trucks filled with fingerlings to be released in wilderness lakes and streams. He met many interesting people along the way. Backpacking live fish to remote high elevation lakes around Mount Shasta with his dog, Towser, was a favorite memory.
Roy married June Santero on 13 June 1959 in Cotati, California. They had five children and were married for life. Roy’s career with Fish and Game at various state hatcheries allowed his family to live near some of the most beautiful and wild places in California– Mount Shasta, Hot Springs (Mammoth Mountain), Moccasin (near Yosemite) and lastly Mad River Fish Hatchery (near Blue Lake) – a very special place for him. After retirement, Roy and June moved to Chico, California.
After working, Roy spent lots of time visiting family in Tukwila, Washington near Seattle. Seahawks, Mariners and Husky games were a staple. His family also gathered in Tukwila for annual summer reunions where Mariners games, horse races and family poker games became a tradition.
Roy was preceded in death by his parents, Joseph and Olga Camozzi, brother, Raymond Camozzi, and daughter Lee Ann Marie Camozzi. He is survived by his wife, June Camozzi; children and spouses, Sandy Camozzi-Dale (Steve), Trish Camozzi-Ekberg (Allan), Kevin Camozzi (Kelly), Bryan Camozzi; grandchildren, Karlin Ekberg-Van de Venter (Clinton), Melissa Camozzi, Erik Ekberg, Matthew Camozzi; and great-grandchildren Savana, Benelli and Sawyer Van de Venter.
Roy leaves us a lifetime of cherished memories –not to mention his favorite quote, “Watch out for penguins!” He is and will be dearly missed. We love you Roy.
