Oh, mercy Editor: I was distressed to see in your article about the Wildlife Care Center (“Oh, Mercy,” July 20) that the Director Monte Merrick does not have a clue about what animal imprinting means. He states that animals don’t imprint on us from birth and his justification for that opinion is that we don’t even know “the inner psychology of our own spouses.” That knowing a spouse’s inner psychology (whatever that may mean) has nothing whatsoever to do with imprinting he apparently does not grasp. Imprinting in birds has long been studied and recognized. Many birds imprint on the first moving object they see within the first 12 to 16 hours after hatching and will follow that object and will ‘know’ that the object they are following is what they

are. The famous ethologist Konrad Lorenz was often photographed with a gaggle of geese following him everywhere. Objects that are imprinted on can vary from a moving toy train to any animal or human. There is a YouTube video called “My Life as a Turkey” that is a fun and interesting watch. Anyone who is working with wildlife rescue should know that imprinting is a real phenomenon and it’s critical to know what animals will imprint. One working in that field should, I would think, be studying the work of ethologists like Lorenz in order to best care for their charges. Sylvia De Rooy, Eureka

The Humboldt County Public Defender’s Office has been mired in conflict since the Feb. 8 hire of David Marcus as its chief. File photo

‘Nothing in Writing’

Public defender testifies he lawyered but can’t provide any documentation By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

ocal attorney Patrik Griego refiled his lawsuit last week, alleging that Humboldt County Public Defender David Marcus fails to meet minimum state qualifications for his post. And this time, Griego is using Marcus’ own words against him in arguing that he is unqualified to represent the county’s indigent defendants as the chief public defender. Last month, visiting Judge Marjorie Carter dismissed the lawsuit but gave Griego the option of refiling after Marcus’ July 3 deposition. While Carter said she was tempted to deny the county’s request to have the suit dismissed and “get on with this,” she said the deposition would likely help inform Griego’s suit by further clarifying Marcus’ work history. The heart of the suit rests on a section of the California Government Code that requires a public defender to have been “a practicing attorney in all the courts of the state for at least the year preceding the date of his election or appointment.” Marcus, who served as Lassen County’s chief public defender from 2005 to 2011, was working primarily as an insurance claims adjuster in Florida in February, when he was hired by the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors. The county is arguing that the state statute simply requires an attorney be licensed to practice law

in California courts and that, because he kept his bar license active and was doing some remote contract work in Florida, Marcus meets the threshold. Griego, on the other hand, argues that the statute requires an attorney to have actually been practicing law inside California courts and, in the amended complaint, raises questions about whether Marcus was even practicing law during the year preceding his appointment. Marcus’ short tenure in Humboldt County has so far been shrouded in controversy, with members of the local defense bar speaking out against the process that led to his hire, employees of his office sending letters to the board alleging he is incompetent and unqualified, and, most notably, Griego’s lawsuit. On his resume submitted to the county, Marcus represented that he’d been working as a contract attorney specializing in transactional real estate and property loss consulting since 2012 with the firm Cella, Lange and Cella, in which Marcus’ close personal friend is a partner. But Marcus claimed to have only spent about 10 hours a week working for the firm and reported receiving no monthly salary. During the July 3 deposition, Marcus testified that he worked on four cases for the firm between February of 2016 and his hire in February of 2017. But the Continued on page 8

July 3, 2017 — Marcus is deposed under oath. July 21, 2017 — Griego refiles the suit, now alleging that Marcus’ claim that he worked remotely as a contract attorney for a Walnut Creek law firm for the year preceding his hire in Humboldt County is false.

public defender conceded he authored no pleadings, made no court appearances in the cases, didn’t maintain malpractice insurance and hadn’t been paid for any of his work. Pressed by Griego, Marcus testified that he wasn’t even under contract with any of the clients or the firm itself. But Marcus said he expected to get paid for his work once the cases concluded, though there was no formal agreement as to how. Rather, Marcus said he and the firm had an oral agreement under which, once a case concluded, they would negotiate compensation based on his contribution to the case and its ultimate disposition. “Did you keep track of your time for the work you did for the Cella law firm for the year prior to being appointed public defender?” Griego asked. “Nothing in writing,” Marcus answered. “Well, when you say nothing in writing, of course my follow-up question is how, if at all, did you keep track of the amount of time that you spent working for the Cella law firm?” “Just mental notes.” “Can you tell me from those mental notes specifically dates and times that you worked for the Cella law firm for the year prior to being appointed public defender?” Griego asked. “I cannot,” Marcus replied. “Can you tell us specifically which months you did work for the Cella law firm for the year prior to being appointed public defender?” Greigo asked.

“I don’t recall specific months,” Marcus answered. Under further questioning, Marcus testified that the bulk of his work on the four cases came in the form of a meeting with his friend, Christopher Cella, who came out to visit him in Florida in September of 2016. During the visit, which Marcus described as partly social and partly business, Marcus said he reviewed legal briefs for three of the cases and gave Cella input. Additionally, he testified that he may have participated in a couple of conference calls with the clients in the cases. At one point in the deposition, Griego goes month-by-month for the year-long period preceding Marcus’ hire in Humboldt County, asking Marcus if he recalled doing any legal work that month. Marcus replied that he was “not positive” or “not sure” for every month but September, which included the meeting with Cella. But under cross examination by County Counsel Jeff Blanck, Marcus testified that he was confident he did legal work in each of those months, he just couldn’t recall precisely what it was. In an interesting tidbit that’s unlikely to impact the case, Griego asked Marcus if he’d tried a murder case before. Marcus replied that he had, most recently back in 2002 or 2003, when he was a deputy public defender down in San Bernardino County. Later, after the deposition appeared to come to a close, Marcus met privately with Cella — who is representing Continued on page 10

him personally in the case — and Blanck. After the brief huddle, Marcus told Griego he wanted add something on the record. Then, Marcus told Griego he believed he’d been mistaken about that murder case. It went to trial as a manslaughter case, he testified, and it was in 1996 or 1997. “I can’t remember for sure,” he said, “but I wanted to clarify that.” In his amended petition, Griego makes clear he’s dubious of Marcus’ testimony. He makes repeated reference to Marcus having “falsely claimed” he’d worked for Cella, Lange and Cella for the year preceding his appointment. But even if you look past the lack of a paper trail or documentation and take Marcus’ testimony at face value, Griego argues he’s still unqualified for the position. When the bill laying out the qualifications for a public defender first passed the state Legislature in 1921, its advocates had determined “that the public defender must have practiced in all the courts of the state for the year directly preceding appointment, including superior courts where felonies were tried, police courts, and justice courts where misdemeanors were tried and where preliminary examinations” were held for felony cases. It’s clear, Griego argues, that the statute was intended to ensure a public defender had immediate experience practicing in criminal courtrooms. In its filings in the case, the county has argued that the suit is an “artificial legal controversy” that is “both frivolous and baseless.” The statute, the county has argued, simply requires the appointment of a licensed attorney, which Marcus is, and Griego and his clients are simply “fuming about the merits of a political appointment.” Interpreting the statute differently, the county argues, would “necessarily mean that an attorney is only eligible for the office of public defender if the attorney had made a physical appearance in literally all California courts, including every superior court in all 58 counties, every division of the six districts of the appellate court, as well as the California Supreme Court. This is an impossible requirement to meet …” The county now has 30 days to file a response to Griego’s amended petition. Marcus did not respond to a request to be interviewed for this story but previously told the Journal via email there “was and is no basis for the suit” and that he loves this community and looks “forward to being of service to it for years to come.” ● Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor.

Week in Weed

DEU Do’s and Don’ts

The sheriff’s office releases enforcement guidelines on cannabis By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

he Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office wants you to know the circumstances under which it will rip up your weed. On July 11, the agency eradicated 5,491 plants near Hyampom at an unpermitted grow. On June 28, it served three search warrants on a McKinleyville resident, Brent Visser, and reported finding 367 pounds of processed and packaged marijuana in his private home (along with six firearms, 255 Xanax pills and $80,000 in cash). A separate grow site allegedly operated by Visser near Willow Creek was also raided, resulting in 21,389 marijuana plants being eradicated. Visser had filed a Commercial Cannabis Permit Application but, according to the HCSO press release, the application was suspended because some required information was overdue. There were also environmental issues. “After the Commercial Cannabis Application and surveillance information was reviewed, HCSO [Drug Enforcement Unit] had reason to believe that Brett Visser was using the Humboldt County Commercial Cannabis Permit process as a cover for trafficking marijuana and that several felony environmental violations were being committed,” stated the press release. Perhaps in an attempt to quell the fears of folks who have registered with the county that the HCSO DEU is going to use their information against them (right, good luck), the agency released a memo on July 20 breaking down its policies and priorities on addressing illegal marijuana cultivation. First, some numbers. The sheriff’s office estimates that only about 19 percent (2,300) of the roughly 12,000 documented grow sites in Humboldt actually have permit applications on file. Of those 2,300 applicants, only about 2 percent (43) have actually received permits and roughly a third of the total permits filed (800) are actually complete. While a great deal of people filed applications to get in under the deadline, a relatively small chunk of those had all of the information necessary. Those that haven’t seen any progress in the last six months are considered “withdrawn” and open to enforcement.

If your scene is permitted, you’re expected to be able to produce the paperwork. That means an approved conditional use permit/special permit or zoning clearance certificate and your county business license. If you don’t have a permit but you’ve turned in your application, you’re going to need a whole binder full of other information ready to show the cops. That includes (but is not limited to) an affidavit stamped by the county, complete site plan, processing plan, distribution plan, documentation from the State Water Resources Control Board, your seller’s permit from the Board of Equalization, an Employers Identification Number and proof that you’re paying both your state and federal taxes. (See the county website for more details.) “If a marijuana cultivation site does not have a permit application in process and the cultivator fails to have the above listed documentation, enforcement action will be taken,” the press release states. “Per the policy of the Sheriff’s office all the marijuana will be removed onsite and the suspects will be arrested.” If you have a permit but you’re growing more than you said you would, you’re also vulnerable to being fined, arrested and having your crop destroyed. But with so many grows – legal, semilegal and illegal – in Humboldt County, the HCSO says enforcement will be mostly complaint-driven, focusing on the “most egregious violators of the law.” Issues besides missing/inadequate permitting that will put a scene at the top of the list include the sale and distribution of marijuana to minors, trespass grows, human trafficking, violation of state firearms laws, revenue being directed to gangs and/or cartels, distribution outside the state and trafficking of other illegal drugs. So, in essence, follow the letter of the law, or the law is going to come looking for you. l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

Comments Spark Fortuna Fire Controversy

local fire chief and reporter are in a bit of a standoff over comments left on a blog about the fatal fire that took the life of Martha Ann Robertson in the early hours of July 11. Robertson, 76, was a resident of Royal Crest Mobile Estates in Fortuna and apparently perished due to smoke inhalation after firefighters were unable to rescue her from her mobile home, which was allegedly packed with belongings, making entry and exploration difficult. The cause of the fire is still under investigation but it is believed to have been accidental. The comments on Redheaded Blackbelt, a local news blog owned and operated by Kym Kemp, have caused a mini-controversy after Fortuna Fire Chief Lon Winburn asked Kemp, to remove his press release regarding the fire. In an email sent July 13 (two days after the fire), Winburn wrote Kemp the following: “Please remove our media release regarding the fire in Royal Crest from your site, we do not want any association with the comments that are being allowed to be posted.” The comments Winburn referenced appear to be a collection of readers speculating on why the fire department was unable to save Robertson, questions as to why the crew did not have proper water pressure at the park and accusations of

incompetence directed at Winburn. “I was not happy that she allows what was posted to be posted,” he told the Journal. “It’s because of the effect it has on my firefighters. My firefighters busted their butts to get into that house. When you have a fatality, it really hurts.” Winburn said his firefighters often struggle with symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after incidents, especially when there’s a death. The negative comments and speculation online were compounding that problem. Many of the allegations included in the comments were rumors that the Fortuna Fire Department didn’t have sufficient personnel on scene and that the department’s water tender wasn’t properly supplied to put out the blaze. Winburn conceded there were water pressure issues in the park but said the heavy fuel load in the residence and obstructed entry points were the biggest factors. Allegations that the department had been unprepared for the flames are untrue, said Winburn, adding that the fuel load in the house made the size of the fire “abnormal.” Winburn asked Kemp to remove his press release from her site and, after the two could not reach accord in phone conversations, said he would not send her future press releases. Kemp, responding in an email, said she respected Winburn and his

Fortuna in Mourning: The city of Fortuna issued a statement saying it is “deeply shocked and saddened by the tragic loss of longtime residents Dennis Wendt and Roger Harwood,” who were killed when the car they were passengers hit a light pole off U.S. Highway 101 near Miranda. The cause of the single-car crash, which occurred at 3:20 a.m. on July 21, remains under investigation. Intoxication is not believed to have been a factor. POSTED 07.21.17

Goodbye, Chief Lovefest at the Wharfinger By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

ownstairs at Eureka’s Wharfinger Building, a man is sleeping on a bench next to his bike. Upstairs, the family of Thomas McClain, a 22-year-old Eureka resident shot dead by Eureka Police Department officers in 2014, wait for their chance to step up to the podium and confront the departing chief. But between these two signposts of a challenging four years in the city of Eureka, there is a packed crowd of people applauding: politicians, staff, off-duty officers, social workers, community organizers and retirees. Betty Chinn is swearing. Well, her version of swearing. “You know chief, you take a lot of crap from these people,” she says. The crowd and the chief laugh. She tells the story of how the Betty Kwan Chinn Foundation and the Eureka Police Department collaborated to help homeless people. “Chief, I love you so much, you have helped me so much on my journey,” Chinn says. Strengthening the relationship between law enforcement and nonprofits, faith groups and social service providers such as Chinn’s foundation was one of the key elements that Mills and his department used to successfully vacate an entrenched

homeless camp in the PalCo Marsh, one of the signature events in Mills’ nearly four-year tenure. Although Mills credits the support of the council and city staff with accomplishing some major goals, council meetings were often fraught with divergent opinions about how to carry out the city’s mission and support EPD, which saw Mills take a public, outspoken role on some issues. Councilmember Kim Bergel, whose career in public office began while Mills was still relatively new to the position, says her initial reaction to meeting the chief was that he was a “Superman.” “I’ve always appreciated how you treated everybody, everybody in our community with respect, even when they were horrible to you,” she says. “It was a short time you were here, but you really made a hell of an impact.” Mills, delivering his own remarks to the crowd, doles out equal helpings of gratitude and good-natured teasing. He tells the story of going to lunch with Mayor Frank Jager early in his time in the area and being “chewed out” for having bought a house in Arcata. He thanks his staff and the community. He thanks his wife, Cathy, who stands in the back of the room next to Chinn. The

two women embrace. Cathy Mills has tears in her eyes. When the microphone is free, Jamie Bowman, McClain’s aunt, takes the opportunity to thank the chief and also to demand that the officers responsible for her nephew’s death admit that they made a mistake. It’s an awkward note in the afternoon but it sees Mills transition back into a familiar position, his hands folded behind his back, listening and nodding intently. He advises Bowman to contact the Citizen’s Advisory Board. “I appreciate it,” he tells Bowman, his words just caught by the microphone. After the crowd has dispersed to line up and shake hands with Mills, Lance McClain, Thomas’ father, stands outside rolling an unlit cigarette between his fingers. “My son was 22; that’s the only son I had,” he says. “My family name ends with me.” McClain’s family is in town to pick up his possessions, only now released by the district attorney’s office after a federal jury’s conclusion that McClain and the officer who shot him shared blame for the death. They’re driving an RV that’s seen better days, and on one door are the words “Justice for Tommy.”

Inside, the line to shake hands with Mills snakes past a table loaded with coffee and cookies. Homeless advocates stand next to city councilmembers. Law enforcement officers and fire personnel tilt their heads to check crackling radios above the din of laughter and chatter. Stories are exchanged, introductions made and the departing chief retains his characteristic, full-faced smile as he shakes hands, claps backs and gives out more than a few warm hugs. A few days earlier, speaking before the city council meeting last Tuesday after receiving an award from Sheriff William Honsal and Brett Fabri of the California Highway Patrol, Mills had to pause several times to regain his composure. “I want to say something but I don’t want to tear up. It’s been, uh … it’s been a distinct honor,” he said. “This is a truly spectacular place. We leave with nothing but hearts filled with gratitude.” l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

‘The People’s Chief’ Mills leaves Eureka almost universally liked and that in itself is extraordinary By Thadeus Greenson

thad@northcoastjournal.com

ndrew Mills had just finished lunch and was strolling through Old Town on a Thursday afternoon, just about 24 hours before his almost four-year tenure as Eureka’s chief of police was to come to an end. Every few yards someone stopped him. There was the old department volunteer, the rabble-rousing community organizer, the former Marine, the woman in her early 20s and the retired district attorney. All were effusive in their praise and well wishes. With Mills now in Santa Cruz preparing for his next challenge in a city twice Eureka’s size with many of its same challenges, it’s hard to remember that this kind of exit — the packed event at the Wharfinger, the smiles, hugs and kind words — has been largely absent in Eureka’s recent past. After all, the city’s last police chief, Murl Harpham, was a polarizing figure and, while people were largely grateful for his more than 55 years on the force, none were lining up to convince him to stay. Before Harpham was Garr Nielsen, who faced what officers described as a departmental insurrection before being unceremoniously fired without cause. Before him came Dave Douglas, whose tenure was marred by a string of five officer-involved shooting deaths in an 18-month span and

was indicted on a manslaughter charge just a couple of months into retirement, stemming from one of those shootings. (Charges were quickly dismissed.) “The department was somewhat fragmented and, you know, they were kind of floundering there for a while,” recalled former Councilmember Melinda Ciarabellini, who sat on the council when former City Manager Bill Panos, after a somewhat disastrous process, plucked Mills from the ranks of the San Diego Police Department to become Eureka’s next chief. With the turmoil the department had been through, Ciarabellini said she was unsure what to think of the hire at the time. She’d liked some of the applicants, including a couple of locals, but “didn’t know the guy from San Diego,” and questioned the wisdom of going outside of the local area to “find a metro police chief.” But a short time later, Ciarabellini and her fellow council members met Mills at a League of California Cities conference. Mills looked her straight in the eye, offered a firm handshake and introduced his wife, Cathy, right away, Ciarabellini recalled. “It was one of those feelings you get right off the bat — this was the guy. It was right,” she said. “I thought, ‘This might go well.’ And it did.” Ciarabellini paused when asked just

EPD leaders retire. He empaneled a “chief’s advisory committee” to weigh in on policy, critical incidents and employee discipline, but stopped short of giving it any real authority. After officer-involved shootings — of which he saw several — he held press conferences with detailed reports of what happened but never publicly criticized the officers involved. And in perhaps his most visible act as chief, Mills spent months resisting Eureka’s push to clear the PalCo Marsh, insisting he couldn’t kick homeless people out of their Chief Andrew Mills and Betty Chinn laugh after encampments without pointbeing handed a photo of themselves with EPD Public ing them toward a legal place Information Officer Brittany Powell.

Meet the former theologian and substitute teacher leading EPD “We Fit Humboldt”

By Linda Stansberry

teve Watson is not the kind of man who lets things go. Walking down Third Street, past the St. Vincent de Paul cafeteria, he initially passes the group of men who are standing with bikes and dogs waiting for the doors to open with a short greeting and nod. Then he pauses. “I smell marijuana,” he tells them. The men shuffle their feet and look at one another. Watson rattles off the statute that bars public consumption of cannabis in public. He looks at a man smoking a cigarette and notes that it’s also illegal to smoke within a certain number of feet of public buildings. Scowling, the man puts it out. For a moment it looks like Watson is going to resume walking but he has a final question. “Where did you come from? Did any of you come from Garberville?” One man, sitting on the wheelchair ramp, stands up. “Yes,” he says, he came from Garberville. Watson’s questions speed up. “How did you get here?” “Did your boss give you a ride?” “Were you working on the mountain?” Behind the questions there’s a theory, shared by Watson, current interim chief of the Eureka Police Department and his predecessor, Andrew Mills, that many of the homeless and transient people in Eureka were attracted to the area by the pot industry, only to wind up stranded in the county’s urban center. Watson has been

an outspoken opponent of cannabis legalization, personally and professionally, as documented in emails sent to the county planning division and an editorial written for the Journal. The mood among the cluster of men quickly sours. The man from Garberville tells Watson he hasn’t done anything wrong. Another wants to talk about Mills and the past year’s sometimes erratic shift in approaches by the city in addressing overnight camping in public spaces. Not everything he has to say is pleasant. Watson listens and nods, then interrupts as soon as he can. “Agree to disagree,” he says. As the now interim chief walks away, the conversation behind him continues. It’s not complimentary. Watson, a Fortuna native who joined EPD in 2005, has had a complex life path leading up to his recent interim appointment. The one through line seems to be intensity. After leaving the U.S. Army with an honorable discharge, he studied theology, eventually earning a B.A. in church leadership. When he worked in ministry, he worked in ministry, teaching independent living skills to boys in a group home and volunteering in India, Guatemala and Romania. He began a new career in education, working as a substitute teacher. He still maintains a teaching credential after completing several years of gradContinued on next page »

Then Capt. Steve Watson, who is now EPD’s interim chief, presents Mills with a plaque at his farewell reception. Photo by Mark McKenna uate course work (he hopes to finish his masters degree in the next few years). When he became a cop, he became a cop, earning an award as deputy of the year in Eureka Santa Cruz his first year on the job. After 442-2527 moving back to Humboldt County, he rose Burre Center quickly through the ranks at EPD, promoting to sergeant in two years and then to captain under Mills in 2014. Watson, who says he’s seen a lot of turmoil at EPD over the last 12 years, is inheriting a radically different dynamic than his predecessor. The force is younger (most of the officers have been there less than five years), and more effort is being put into community policing. Watson, who oversaw the creation of the Problem Oriented Policing unit and the Mobile Intervention and Services Team, says he appreciates Mills’ steady hand as a leader, adding that, “it’s time to keep moving the department forward.” For Watson, moving forward means better retention of the current force, more training, expanded community partnerships and stronger relationships with city staff. Whether these relationships and progress on key issues will translate to a permanent position as chief is unclear. The city has begun a recruitment process that will invite candidates from out of the area. Watson appears to be competitively vying for the job (he recently left for a two-week executive leadership course put on by the California Police Chiefs Association), applying his characteristic deliberateness to building his resume. Although he has had numerous projects since joining EPD, including heading a gang task force, volunteer recruitment and training management, his assignment as captain for Service Area 1 means that the issue

of homelessness has dominated much of Watson’s recent career. A reader who’s fond of quoting, the interim chief’s statements reflect a wide spectrum of influences. “We can’t police our way out of this problem,” he will say, a favorite phrase of Mills’, then, in the same conversation, mention the “silent majority” of Eurekans that are “increasingly frustrated” with homelessness and crime, unconsciously referencing a 1969 speech by Richard Nixon. What the walk behind this talk actually boils down to in terms of enforcement is difficult to say. But in practice, the interim chief is methodical, unwilling to let things slide. When a woman searching for her homeless and schizophrenic son flags him down on Second Street, Watson asks her text him a picture, which he sends to the Old Town’s homeless officer. Walking through the recently unfenced Balloon Track, he rousts a couple smoking cigarettes in the high grass. He points out the overhangs and loading docks, places he says are “magnets” for crime and disorder. A volunteer graffiti abatement team working with a local business owner, he says, has made an impact on the “broken window” effect he sees affecting businesses in the area. It’s a complex, multi-faceted issue, he says. EPD officers don’t have all the answers; they’re just the ones tasked with standing in the gap. Occasionally, pressed on the issue, he’ll recite an adapted version of a St. Thomas Aquinas quote: “Compassion absent accountability leads to anarchy, but accountability absent compassion leads to tyranny. “ ● Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

Who’s Next? With Mills’ exit, Eureka gets busy searching for its next police chief By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

efore former Eureka Police Chief Andrew Mills had left the building, City Manager Greg Sparks was already setting the wheels in motion to find his replacement. As the Journal went to press, Sparks was meeting with one of the owners of the recruitment firm Peckham and McKenney, Inc., guiding him through a series of meetings with city council members and the mayor, officers and community members, to put together a “position profile,” or a vision of what Eureka’s next chief will be. Hiring a police chief is a complicated, high-stakes process. And it’s easy to forget that it’s one that didn’t go so well the last time around, when a total of three candidates turned down offers or withdrew from the process in its final stages. The city fired former Chief Garr Nielsen on June 24, 2011, and 14 months later hadn’t found a replacement. A long, drawn-out hiring process had seen two interview panels whittle a pool of seven applicants down to three finalists — all sheriff ’s lieutenants, two from out of the area and one local. But when the local candidate declined the city’s offer, then soon-tobe-retiring City Manager David Tyson scrapped the process in August of 2012, opting to let his successor choose the city’s next chief. In January of the following year, new City Manager Bill Panos started the process anew, with a national search that yielded 50 applicants, despite a job posting that didn’t sugar coat its description of Eureka as a little city with big-city problems. In July, word leaked that Panos had offered the post to Michael Johnson, a former EPD cop who’d been involved in the city’s most controversial officer-involved shooting and was then working as the city of Anderson’s police chief. There was some outcry at the prospect of Johnson’s return to helm EPD and Panos appeared to drag his feet, prompting Johnson to send a scathing letter withdrawing his name from consideration. That letter reportedly led a local applicant to withdraw his name from the running, leaving Panos to turn to Mills, whose hire he announced in September of 2013. Careful to say he was very happy with the end result of Eureka’s prior search,

Sparks said he’s hoping things will move more smoothly and quickly this time around. He said he hopes to get the position profile locked down within a week and to get it posted by the end of next week. “It’s a fairly aggressive timeline but I want to be interviewing finalists within about three months,” Sparks said. Sparks has already tapped Capt. Steve Watson to serve as the department’s interim chief and both Watson and fellow Capt. Brian Stephens are expected to apply for the permanent position. But while he said continuing EPD’s focus on community policing is a must, Sparks said local candidates will not be given any inherent advantage. “We want a process that leads us to hire the best person for the job, whether it’s an internal or external candidate,” Sparks said. Whoever steps into the post will take over a more stable department than Mills did but many of the same challenges, as well, namely an entrenched homeless population, a drug epidemic and staggering property crime rates. “We continue to be a small city with a fairly small department that deals with kind of urban crime issues, with guns and drugs and I think a pretty difficult criminal element here,” Sparks said. Sparks also noted that the recruitment and retention of officers remains a challenge, due in part to compensation levels that are lower than many similar sized departments throughout the state. And with increasing pension costs and relatively stagnant revenues, Sparks said the city is projecting lean budget years on the horizon. “We’re going to need a strategic, innovative thinker,” Sparks said. Ultimately, the decision of who to tap as Eureka’s next police chief belongs to Sparks, though the new chief’s contract will have to be approved by the city council, per the city charter. ●

hen I invited Janet Czarnecki, farmer and owner of Redwood Roots Farm, to contribute a recipe to my Farmers’ Favorites series, she answered without hesitation: “Grilled little gems with cheese, walnuts and balsamic vinegar on top. So good!” Her answer delighted me — the recipe would give me an excuse to get to know Little Gems, also called Little Gem lettuce or Sucrine lettuce, better. I had purchased it several times, as it is readily available and difficult to pass by, given its attractive, compact shape. One head sits nicely in your hand. I always used it in salads and

liked its crispness and gentle sweetness. I knew, though, that I was not exploring all its potential. Thanks to Janet’s favorite recipe, that was about to change. When I visited Redwood Roots Farm during farm stand hours (see below) to take some photos of Little Gems in the field, I asked Janet whether Little Gem lettuce was Romaine lettuce harvested early — like baby spinach and other baby vegetables. My question prompted a ringing peal of laughter and a gentle no. While Little Gem lettuce looks like a miniature version of Romaine lettuce, it is its own variety of Lactuca sativa. After taking some photographs of the neat rows of lettuce, I walked around the flower

section of the farm. Besides vegetables, farm stand customers and community-supported agriculture (CSA) shareholders have access to flowers — u-pick or sometimes pre-made bouquets. Janet shared with me her plan to grow tulips, daffodils and ranunculi next year, which she may bring to the Saturday farmers market in Arcata. Flower lovers, be on the alert. Back to Little Gems and on to the recipe: It is simple to make and the result is delicious. After tasting one of my renditions, my husband asked for a quick tutorial and he is now making his own version. The recipe offers itself readily to variations. Try choosing different types of cheese and/or different nuts — each combination gives you a slightly different dish. Use your personal preferences to guide your hand with toppings and seasoning. The original recipe calls for grilling the lettuce over coals or gas. I use the oven broiler instead. Here are both versions.

Grilled Little Gem Lettuce One head of lettuce serves 2 Ingredients: Little Gem lettuce heads Olive oil Salt and pepper Blue cheese, or any soft cheese Walnuts, chopped Balsamic vinegar Cut the lettuce head(s) in half, from top to bottom so that the core is holding the leaves together. Sprinkle the cut side of each half with olive oil. Grill the lettuce face down until slightly wilted. Turn over and sprinkle with salt, pepper and blue cheese. When the cheese is melted slightly, remove from the heat, toss on walnuts, sprinkle with balsamic vinegar and enjoy.

Broiled Little Gem Lettuce Simona’s adaptation of Janet Czarnecki’s recipe. Ingredients: Little Gem lettuce heads Olive oil Salt and pepper Fresh chèvre or blue cheese or a soft cheese of choice, crumbled or cut into small pieces Lightly toasted pecans or walnuts, chopped Balsamic vinegar Preheat the broiler. Cut the lettuce head(s) in half, from top to bottom, so that the core is holding the leaves together. Place lettuce cut side up on a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat. Sprinkle with olive oil. Broil the lettuce until slightly wilted. Take the baking sheet out of the oven and turn off the broiler. Sprinkle the lettuce with salt, pepper and the cheese of choice. Put the baking sheet back in the oven. When the cheese is softened or melted slightly, take the baking sheet out of the oven. Distribute some chopped nuts on the lettuce and finish off with a sprinkle of balsamic vinegar. Serve immediately and eat right away. Redwood Roots Farm is located on Jacoby Creek Road (look for the banner at the Old Arcata Road intersection) in Bayside.

More rarely, it can be very funny. Now, lying — that’s funny. Not so much when it’s done to you but in the service of comedy, it can be pretty damn amusing. David Ives’ The Liar, is an adaptation of Pierre Corneille’s 17th-century play La Menteur, a classic French farce in the tradition of Molière. North Coast Repertory Theatre’s The Liar is a reminder that this idea hasn’t lost any of its shine into the 21st century, most especially in the case of a lead character who both can’t and won’t tell the truth, and doesn’t really see any reason he should. Ives’ play keeps Corneille’s setting of Paris, although it becomes quickly clear that the setting is roughly some time (or times) between then and now. Wily dandy Dorante (Bo Banducci) arrives in town and meets commoner Cliton (Calder Johnson), whom he quickly takes on as a manservant. Durante simply cannot tell the truth, yet weaves such exuberant, involved and seductive untruths that he’s a force of

nature. Cliton, not without some irony, is burdened with being almost incapable of telling a lie. Within moments of arriving in town, Dorante meets young lady Clarice (Tracy Dorgan) and regales her with tales of distant German wars in which, of course, he had no part. In the custom of farce, Dorante is smitten with her friend Lucrece (Megan Hughes) but has confused her name with Clarice’s. And from there, under the great direction of Troy Lescher, things are off and sprinting, all in iambic pentameter with a first act that’s breezy and not too exposition-heavy. Naturally, saucy letters abound, arranged marriages go awry through deception, as do midnight meetings in the garden in which both the suitor and the object of his desire are fed lines by cohorts. Mistaken identities and varied subterfuge are never far off in this genre, and while The Liar has its groan-worthy bits of comic reaching, really, they’re few and far between. Everything gyrates on an axis of the sometimes ludicrous, and the script shows off Ives’ breathless manner with gleeful contemporary jokes, wit and wordplay, such as when Lucrece describes herself to Dorante as “your faithful oyster,

the bivalve at the back whose eyes grow moister.” Replies Dorante, “You may be a bivalve, but you’re my valve.” Banducci (last seen quite recently in NCRT’s Oklahoma and Richard III) is at full tilt in the enviable role of Dorante and Johnson plays well as the relative straight man — as one must really be when being unable to tell a lie amid such a frenzied premise. Dorgan and Hughes are both outstanding, playing Clarice and Lucrece at great complimentary pitches in their scenes together and when wooed by Dorante. Caroline McFarland shines in a double role of twin maids with wildly different personalities — after all, a story such as this needs twins to cause a running level of consternation and comic gags. Additionally, as Alcippe, Dorante’s most put-upon childhood friend, Morgan Beck makes an impressive stage debut. Of particular note are the amazing costumes by Rae Robison. Much as The Liar exists both within its era and yet very close to the present, the show’s cast is clad fittingly, be they Dorante’s hybrid of modern leather and colorful period elegance, or Clarice and Lucrece’s outfits, eye-poppingly colorful and also suggestive of everything from Jazz-era fashions filtered through the 1980s with such touches as pink opera gloves and other surreal elements that work beautifully. As things hurtle toward a manic and quite satisfactory denouement at the end, there’s time during and afterward to think about the strength of lying in terms of the power of imagination. Dorante lies with almost joyous abandon and whenever caught, simply zips forth gleefully to another tall tale. One is left to contemplate, especially in this day and age, if truth has something less to do with how reality unfolds in truth than with the way reality is spun out of illusion. The Liar plays at North Coast Repertory Theatre in Eureka on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. through Aug. 12, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. on July 30 and Aug. 6.

Setlist

Modern History By Andy Powell

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

he music of Jonathan Richman and/or The Modern Lovers showed up on my radar when he started playing shows in Humboldt semi-recently. He has an earned status and a cult following of those in the know about his place in rock ‘n’ roll history. As the frontman and driving force behind The Modern Lovers in the early ’70s, he had an outsized influence on the burgeoning punk movement and what would be called new wave. Former Modern Lovers member Jerry Harrison would go on to later join The Talking Heads, and David Robinson would provide the beat for The Cars. How has a musician this influential escaped my musical attention this long? It could be partly due to what might be called his quirky nature or his truly punkish embrace of radical self-determination. Although the commercial route seems to have been available to him, he chose to follow his quieter, more insightful instincts than to deliver more of what could have made him millions. Perhaps. With idiosyncratic observations on common life and daily struggles of the ordinary, Richman has been able to peel back layers of American existence with humor, absurdities and unique insight. His music is consistently youthful, playful and inquisitive. Read on below for information on where you can catch Richman this weekend.

Thursday

The weekend starts early with a funky good time of a jam tonight at The Jam in Arcata around 9:30 p.m. Get ready to groove with the Humboldt Jam Collective, which has a bedrock of local talent, while others jam along. No word on a ticket price for this one. Could be free, or maybe something in the $5 ballpark. Check it out.

Friday

Cafe Mokka hosts some “Gypsy jazz” tonight, courtesy of Skyline Swing, who’ll be doing their thing around 8 p.m. and for free. Bring the kiddos along for this one. It’s a jam-packed bill at The Miniplex down the street as there’s a four-band lineup for you starting around 9 p.m., when local high-altitude peyote-rockers Opossum Sun Trail start the show. Joining them

from the City of Angels are pysch rockers Levitation Room who had their recent album described in Spin Magazine as “the LSD-laced cream of this year’s crop, a delirious six-track mélange of paisley and malaise.” Sounds like an EP and sounds like a cool delivery of trippy pop. Portland’s Abronia mixes spaghetti-western tunes (ala Ennio Morricone) with “Syd-Barret-era Pink Floyd psychedelia,” which sounds like a pretty awesome combo to me. I’m trying to imagine the part in The Good, The Bad and The Ugly when Tuco is hauling the man with no name around the desert with either “Flaming” or “Chapter 24” as the internal soundtrack to Clint Eastwood’s character’s sun-ravaged mind. Anyway, Post Animal rounds out this bill, coming all the way out from Chicago with some mellow and dynamic sounds that hint of psychedelia as well. For those of you for whom this means something, this band has Steve from the show Stranger Things. Bring $10 to get into this psych-fest. At the top of the hill in McKinleyville you’ll find local funksters Claire Bent & Citizen Funk laying it down at Six Rivers Brewery at 9 p.m. and for free. At the same time, local classic rockers Triple Junction will be cranking it out in the Wave Lounge in the Blue Lake Casino also for free. They’ll be playing until 1 a.m., so you’ve got plenty of time to catch them, but please, don’t ever underestimate a local band who can entertain for a four-hour show.

Saturday

I’m embarrassed to say that I’ve never made it out to a Roll on the Mattole (or the Mattole Valley for that matter) in the 17 years I’ve lived up here but I’ve heard legends about the festival from many of my musician friends — nothing but glowing tales about the splendors of this event. It’ll be kicking off at noon at the Mattole Grange and for $25 you’ll be able to hear from Poor Man’s Whiskey, Wild Otis, Stevie Culture, Vanishing Pints, Bluff Creek Boys, The John David Young Trio and more artists as well. Have a blast and enjoy the scenery. Six hours later, you’ll find the Mojo Rockers playing some blues-influenced rock and funk at the Mad River Brewery Tap Room in sunny Blue Lake. The show’s free but never feel bad about tipping the bad. At 6:30 p.m. at the Outer

Jonathan Richman plays the Arcata Playhouse at 8 p.m. on Saturday, July 29. Courtesy of the artist

Space in Arcata (11th and M streets) there’s an all-ages show featuring Nana Grizol (pop punk) from the Big Easy, Your Heart Breaks (queer pop) from Seattle and locals Roman Candles (folk punk) all doing their thing. Music ends around 10 p.m. and you’ll only need $6 to get in. Willow Creek’s Gallery 299 hosts locals Inscrutable Rabbit, comprised of Jeff DeMark and Mark Jeffares to celebrate the opening of their new kitchen with a dinner and party on the lawn starting around 7:30 p.m. Music’s free, I believe, but you’ll feel like you spent a million bucks. Also at 7:30 p.m. is a show celebrating Billie Holiday featuring Copenhagen-born singer deSTINA — hope I got the capitalization right — with local RLA Trio up at the Westhaven Center for the Arts. It’s a $5-20 sliding scale tonight. Quirky pre-proto new wave/punk legend Jonathan Richman returns to Humboldt at the Arcata Playhouse at 8 p.m. Of Richman, The Village Voice declares, “There’s a simplicity and ease to Jonathan Richman — Modern Lovers founder and frontman and overall pop-rock purveyor — that borders on enigmatic. This applies not only to his quirky, whimsical musical worldview, but also to the man himself. Even at 64, Richman exudes an air of boyish wonderment that cannot be fatigued.” I thank the Voice for that and for helping me hit my word count. With that said, Mr. Richman is a cult-legend that deserves at least one of your ears tonight. He’s joined by long-time collaborator and drummer Tommy Larkins and you can hear both for only $20.

Sunday The always-all-ages Outer Space in Arcata brings feminist-punk rockers Chastity Belt down from Seattle tonight, touring with their new album, I Used to Spend So Much Time Alone, so go help ’em out with that. They’re joined by Oakland pop rocker

Stephen Steinbrink and local heroes The Monster Women. Show starts at 7 p.m. and is $8.

Monday

I remember when Miss Lana Rebel was a part of The Juanita Family and Friends back in the early ’aughts when they’d cruise down from Portland and play house shows and The Alibi. Them were some hazy days for me in my early twenties but I always remember having a great time. I think. Miss Rebel does occasionally return to our fair neck of the woods and I’m glad tonight’s one of those nights. She’ll be at The Logger Bar in Blue Lake with compatriot Kevin Michael Mayfield playing their brand of Americana; fellow former Portlandista Gabe Rozzell starts off the show. As with most Logger Bar shows, it’s a soft 9 p.m. start and a free show. Throw some money in the tip jar as these folks are on the road.

Tuesday Mad River Brewery welcomes acoustic guitar duo Apple Juice Jones around 6 p.m. It’s a free show and feel free to imbibe some non-apple juice liquids. It’s Jerome John Garcia’s birthday today — which should be a holiday here in Humboldt — and you know folks will be celebrating down at Humboldt Brews in Arcata. At 9:30 p.m. Miracle Show will be taking the stage to keep Jerry’s memory alive. A $10 bill gets you into the celebration. Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online. Bands and promoters, send your gig info, preferably with a high-res photo or two, to music@northcoastjournal.com. l Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Album of the Week Show on KWPT 100.3 FM Tuesdays at 6 p.m. Pablo Picasso was an asshole.

Ah, the sounds of summer. The low din of a lawnmower, the zip of a tent flap, the sizzle of steaks on a grill and the No. 1 summertime mom-ism: “Go play outside! It’s a beautiful day!” followed by the corresponding kid lament: “But mom, there’s nothing to do!” Not so fast, junior. Eureka Parks and Recreation’s got this covered with loads of Get Out and Play Day events happening Saturday, July 29 at various spots throughout the city. And best of all, they’re all free. Kids 12 and under get in free to the Sequoia Park Zoo from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. to explore all the cool animal exhibits and enclosures. Just drag along a paying adult with you. Next door at Sequoia Park, kids and adults alike can brush up on their Shakespeare with a live performance of Love’s Labour’s Lost– Abridged — a short and sweet version of Shakespeare’s classic comedy about love and manners at 1 p.m. Stick around (or head downtown and come back) for the Community Barbecue, Concert and Movie in the park starting at 4:30 p.m. Across town at the Humboldt Bay Aquatic Center and Halvorsen Park, get out on the bay with water rentals or take part in archery and disc golf demos all happening between noon and 2 p.m. There’s fitness and dancing on the boardwalk from noon to 4 p.m. with merengue dance lessons, Zumba, belly dancing and body combat demos. Each session is 20 minutes long and takes place at the foot of F Street. Climb aboard for Speeder Rides in Old Town starting at the Adorni Center, or stow away on the Madaket for a 75-minute tour around Humboldt Bay (kids 12 and under free with a paying adult) down at Madaket Square.

It’s only been six months — give him a chance. Valerian

All at Sea

Dunkirk triumphs, Valerian spaces out By John J. Bennett

Reviews

DUNKIRK. Christopher Nolan is something of a professional dinosaur. He broke out with Memento (2000), a challenging, compelling and unlikely low-budget surprise, just as the era of the Big Independents seemed to be hobbling to its dusty, desperate end. As the climate of moviemaking and distribution grew ever less hospitable, Nolan flourished. He remained resolutely Old School, leaning into the tenets of his particular brand of formalism: always shooting on film, employing ever larger casts of stars and extras to accommodate ever grander stories and stages; incorporating the technical elements of his collaborative craft by deceptively subtle and diverse methods. (For those keeping score, few directors are granted the freedom to maintain such difficult, expensive tastes. I suppose it helps that Nolan has grossed billions of dollars for the studio.) Perhaps uniquely, though, he has sustained as a blockbuster auteur, directing his own material, often co-written by brother Jonathan (his sophomore feature, Insomnia, 2002, being the notable exception, adapted by Hilary Seitz from and original screenplay by Nikolaj Frobenius and Erik Skjoldbjaerg). And that material, while inarguably pleasing and digestible, can also be astoundingly heady

and academic, tending toward a distinctly British sort of mildly bemused intellectual distance and darkness. It surprises me that this particular combination of traits can still result in such substantial popular success. Maybe the world isn’t skewing as anti-intellectual as I tend to fear. Maybe some of the detractors are right and Nolan’s work isn’t as smart as it seems, in which case the anti-intellectual argument comes back into play. Or maybe some old-fashioned things become classics for a reason — maybe his synthesis of all these elements just works and resonates with people on a visceral level. I lean toward the last, with Dunkirk as the clearest example so far of the emotionality of Nolan’s movies cutting through — or working with — their gorgeous artifice and technical prowess. By late May of 1940, the efforts of Allied troops on the Continent have been met with an overwhelming resistance. Systematically pushed back toward the English Channel, hundreds of thousands of soldiers find themselves trapped in plain view. With the towns to the East all occupied death traps, the British navy holding backs its ships — seemingly the only hope for evacuation — in anticipation of a defense of the Isles and enemy dive bombers and fighter planes increasingly

decimating the beachhead, the situation appears utterly hopeless. Against this desperate backdrop, Dunkirk tells its story in three interwoven, non-linear parts: from the perspective of the British civilian boatmen pressed into service to cross the Channel and extract as many soldiers as possible; from the air, as an over-matched group of Spitfire pilots do what they can; and finally amid the terrible disorder of the beach itself, as engineers and a few naval officers do everything they can to establish adequate systems to facilitate the evacuation. Photographed by Hoyte Van Hoytema, Dunkirk is, not surprisingly, a densely beautiful work of cinema art, the colors bruise-dark and saturated to the point that the wind from the North Atlantic feels like it’s blowing off the screen. There is just enough frenetic energy in the camera-work, against the impeccably composed large format landscapes, to highlight the chaos of the events. The visual style lends itself to the unusual structure of the narrative, with the two combining to create the tense, enduring atmosphere of a thriller. And, in what has become typical Nolan fashion, Dunkirk, although it tells the story of a gigantic military operation, feels focused and intimate. With minimal dialogue and an emphasis on eye contact and physicality, the tension between each character’s inner light and darkness comes to life on screen with the wave-action of hope and hopelessness. PG13. 106M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK, MINOR.

VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS. In yet another distressing indicator of the passage of time, this made me confront the fact that I haven’t really enjoyed a Luc Besson movie in 20 years. In the good old days,

Leon: The Professional (1994) and The Fifth Element (1997) felt fresh and inventive. They created cinematic spaces I was happy to visit and re-visit. Now his movies just make me sad. Based on a comic book series by Pierre Christin and Jean-Claude Mezieres, Valerian takes place a couple of centuries from now. The international space station Alpha, having become large enough to threaten Earth, has been pushed deeper out into space, where it continues to grow. Maj. Valerian (Dane DeHaan) and Sgt. Laureline (Cara Delevigne) work for some vaguely organized government agency as covert operatives charged with … maintaining the security of the universe, maybe? It’s really not clear from the context and neither of them seems particularly good at it. In the background, there’s a thread about an idyllic planet having been ravaged by the bellicose impulse of mankind and about the few survivors of the planet trying to rebuild their society. This is overlaid with some poorly constructed military intrigue. Valerian proclaims his love for Laureline, although this relationship has no on-screen foundation whatsoever. Rihanna gets an arc as a globular, shape-shifting cabaret performer who comes to the rescue. I’ve liked DeHaan in other roles but he seems ill-suited to this one. Or the collective vision for the character — and for the whole enterprise — is misconceived; both can be true. Maybe fans of the comic books will enjoy it more than I did. PG13. 137M. FORTUNA, BROADWAY, MILL CREEK.

Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed

liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be held, but without covenant or warranty, express or implied, regarding title, possession, condition, or encumbrances, including fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to pay the remaining principal sums of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust.

The beneficiary under said Deed of Trust heretofore executed and delivered to the undersigned a written Declaration of Default and Demand for Sale, and a written Notice of Default and Election to Sell. The undersigned caused said Notice of Default and Election to Sell to be recorded in the county where the real property is located. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should under− stand 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 free and clear ownership of the prop− erty. 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 infor− mation. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, benefi− ciary, 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 cour− tesy 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 (800) 280− 2832 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.AUCTION.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 050423−CA. 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 Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. FOR SALES INFORMATION: (800) 280− 2832 CLEAR RECON CORP. 4375 Jutland Drive Suite 200 San Diego,

Westworld vs. Realworld By Barry Evans

fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com long with my views on the utility of miniaturized modular nuclear reactors (“Nuclear Batteries,” June 15), I suppose the opinion that generates the most unpopular reaction is my belief that free will is a boondoggle. While the free will versus determinism debate has been going on in philosophers’ ivory towers and beery college dorms for just about ever, the accelerating quest for artificial intelligence has given the controversy new meaning and bite. If you’ve been following Westworld, HBO’s series about android “hosts” catering to every whim of guests (including getting insulted, screwed and shot), you’ll know the dilemma. The hosts sure think they’re alive and conscious — that’s the whole attraction of the Westworld environment, the fact that the hosts are the emotional equals of the guests and when they’re hurt, they don’t act hurt, they are hurt. What happens when they start realizing they’re “only” robots? You’ll have to watch the show for that. But that “only” is the key to our existence here in “Realworld” where we confidently live out our days. What would happen if we realized that we are, in fact, robots? If our innate belief that we have free will, that we’re captains of our ships, that our decisions have real meaning — if all that was successfully challenged? That is, what happens when we adopt the materialist position that we’re mere bundles of atoms assembled following the dictates of nearly four billion years of evolution “using only one tool: the mistake,” to quote Westworld’s fearsome leader, played to the hilt by Anthony Hopkins.

If atoms don’t have free will (they don’t, right?), then assemblages of them don’t, not even a body’s worth of 7 x 10^27 of them. So goes the materialist argument. And, of course, any case you can make for free will is countered irredeemably by the simple response: “How do you know?” Whatever your position, how do you know you’re not just reacting, mechanically and automatically? (Which doesn’t change anything — as Samuel Johnson famously summed up the human situation, “All theory is against the freedom of the will; all experience is for it.”) And in a sense the free will vs. determinism debate is a lost cause, an apples and oranges argument. My free will — whatever rational analysis tells me — is a feeling. Determinism, on the other hand, is a process. Meaning I’ll blithely carry on in this life acting as if I’m free, even while logic assures me I’m essentially an 86-billion neuron machine and a prisoner of my genes. As we rapidly approach the era when the likes of Hal of 2001: A Space Odyssey and Lieutenant Commander Data of Star Trek: the Next Generation become actual possibilities (not to mention Westworld’s Maeve and Dolores), we’re going to be forced to confront our own intuitions on what it means to be alive. Do androids have the same rights as humans? Do chimpanzees? Is the pain you and I feel of any greater consequence than that of a machine claiming to be in distress? And do you have any choice about your response? l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo. com) claims to have no option besides writing the above.

Judy (middle) with the Sunny Brae Deli staff

Meet our Employee: Judy Bennight Judy Bennight has worked at Murphy’s for the past two years. “I started working in the deli right off the bat. I have known my boss for the last ten years or so, we used to work together at another job and I love working with her and everyone else in the deli,” explains Judy. “The deli staff is like family and

it makes it easy to come to work.” Judy has lived in Eureka for the last 13 years where she lives with her partner Mike and dogs. “I grew up all over the United States, I lived in Colorado, New York, Arizona and California. It’s nice to be in one place for awhile,” explains Judy. “I don’t do much

outside of work. I like to play with my dogs, work outside in my yard and save money.” Swing by your local Murphy’s Market location and, check out their gourmet deli. Also, make sure you say hi to the workers and if you are in Sunny Brae, make sure to say hi to Judy.
