Lessons Editor: I worked for Eric and Viviana Hollenbeck at Blue Ox in 1979-80, when the newest piece of equipment was a Korean War surplus engine for the sawmill (“The Journey of Radioman,” Nov. 9). I had no idea at that time that Eric was a veteran, let alone survivor of some of the heaviest fighting of the Vietnam War. I was 26 years old at that time, and Eric and Viviana became my foster parents as my father was dying of cancer. They both gave me a lot, in a lot of different ways, but there’s one story that stands out to me: I was working on a piece of equipment and Eric was there advising me. There was some kind of disagreement between us and I got pissed off and walked away. Eric came up behind me as I was still walking, spun me around by my shoulder, and said, “Don’t ever turn your back on a man!” He was shaking like a one-man

earthquake, and I thought he was going to flatten me right there. But he didn’t. I don’t remember exactly what happened after that, but it taught me something impossible to forget — the power of speaking truth, straight out, without violence, and letting whatever happens next be what it is. To me, that’s heroism beyond war. Thanks Eric, Viviana. Bob Olofson, Eureka

Driving the High Roads Here in this land of cannabis a place of pernicious habits, ingrained independence and laughing rabbits, down at the bottom of any ravine, skeletons of Porsches are frequently seen, skewered and severed by boulders and trees, engine cracked open in an oil-smeared frieze. No wrecker can seize and hope to drag out, a piece or a part worth a dime from these Evel Knievel pantomimes, when Michelins skidded at a hundred and nine and a Cayman flipped out, in a soaring dive, off a mountain slope, with boulders supplied, shiny and sharp, honed by spring slides, to chew and swallow the ride and its driver, a stiff who’s still shifting his Cayman, while drifting, spinning out, like a drone, over stunning views, all of which spell a warning to you; consider the road you want to attack if you feel invincible, turn around, go back. Weed in your brain won’t make you a driver, guide you like a deer through these majestic trees, nor will it help you to fly like a bird. The best you can hope for, is with practiced ease, you’ll be lovingly interred by friends in the crypt of this theater absurd. — Larry Strattner

Former tenants of Agape House gather on its front steps to say goodbye. Photo by Linda Stansberry

Clean, Sober, Homeless The foreclosure of the Agape House highlights tenants’ vulnerability By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

igia Giovannoni thought she was doing the right thing. The petite 58-year-old with dark hair and large, dark eyes brought a thick folder of paperwork to her meeting with the Journal on Nov. 15. In it was the deed to her former home at 2145 C St. in Eureka, rental agreements with the women who lived there as tenants of the Agape House, a clean and sober living situation, and restraining orders against her ex-boyfriend, Mark Grabzky. She and Grabzky bought the large, ornate Victorian in 2008 for $401,000, just before the market crashed. When the relationship turned sour and Grabzky moved out, she converted five of its six bedrooms to dormitories and began accepting women who needed shelter. Despite charging around $300 a month in rent per person to the often-rotating group of women, which numbered between 9 and 17 during the three years Agape House operated, Giovannoni struggled to make her mortgage payments. She considered selling the house but didn’t have enough equity to get her money back out of it. Then she began doing research. “All mortgages and all foreclosures are fraud,” Giovannoni says, referring to information she says she got from Lighthouse Law Club, a “center for advanced learning” she found online which also states in an

“important notice” on the website that the club is “not in the business of providing legal advice, counsel or direction.” Giovannoni says, “I started fighting the foreclosure with common law. I had everything on paper to win, everything.” Giovannoni’s tenants knew nothing about this. While their landlord went to court, the women who lived in the house continued their daily lives: attending 12-step meetings, going to work, keeping court appointments, meditating, cooking meals for one another, starting impromptu dance parties in the house’s large, clean kitchen that often smelled of incense and sage. When a sheriff ’s deputy knocked on their door Oct. 27, they had no idea that Giovannoni had stopped paying her mortgage almost two years earlier or that the house had technically been sold to the mortgage lender, Fannie Mae, on Feb. 16. According to a recording Giovannoni made with her phone, the deputy said the residents would not be evicted. He reminded Giovannoni to keep her appointment in civil court. This, along with Giovannoni’s insistence that all was well, calmed her tenants’ fears. But the following week, on Halloween, the sheriff ’s office returned with bank representatives, giving Giovannoni and the nine women who called Agape House home 10 minutes to

grab their belongings and then leave in the driving rain. Lt. Dennis Young says Giovannoni misconstrued the encounter. “Deputy [Jeff] Harrison took a small claims civil paper to Ms. Giovannoni on 10/29,” he told the Journal in an email. “Deputy Harrison served the paper and Ms. Giovannoni asked him if the eviction scheduled for 10/30 would still be conducted. Deputy Harrison told her the eviction was cancelled for 10/30 pending review of the eviction by Humboldt’s County Counsel. County Counsel reviewed the eviction paperwork and advised us to proceed with the eviction, which we did on the 31st.” It takes very little to establish a clean and sober living house. Unlike drug and alcohol treatment programs or licensed residential treatment facilities, there is no licensing procedure or oversight. According to a 2017 resource sheet from St. Joseph Health, there are around six separate clean and sober housing programs in Humboldt County, with some owners managing multiple properties. Most house residents in dormitories, using shared kitchen and restroom spaces. Residents pay an average

of $300 a month in rent, with the money coming from Social Security income or general relief, and their continued tenancy often contingent on maintaining their sobriety. House managers will occasionally drug test residents, and summarily evict those whose results come back dirty. Service providers who rely on clean and sober houses to accommodate clients in need of a stable place to live agree on two things: There are too few of them in Humboldt County and the ones that exist are often neither sober nor clean. “Some providers are better than others,” says Bill Damiano, Humboldt County’s

chief probation officer. Many of his clients are required to live in clean and sober environments once they’re released from jail. “I don’t find it surprising that some houses are variously clean and variously sober. My experience is that once you have one person in a house that relapses, they can take other people out with them.” Brian Issa, who heads code enforcement for the city of Eureka, says his department has investigated issues with some clean and sober houses that are repeat offenders, although he declined to say which ones. “I will say that we have had a fair

number of code enforcement cases that occurred at mismanaged clean and sober houses,” he told the Journal, adding that he’s seen everything from narcotic sales and residents using large amounts of drugs to a lack of home maintenance and piles of garbage. “Like anything else, if they’re well managed, it’s not a problem.” According to the women who lived there, Agape House didn’t have any of those problems. “It felt like a very welcoming, clean place,” says Briana Valdez, who moved there after a situation with a roommate fell through. “It was safe, clean and well-run, if I can say that,” says Cindy Elliot, who served as Agape’s house manager, acting as a “den mother” to the women who stayed there. While previous tenants had rotated out quickly, the nine women there at the end had formed a close-knit group. Elliot ended up at the house after leaving an abusive relationship, going through the Multiple Assistance Center and Humboldt Domestic Violence Services before finding a listing for the Agape House on Craigslist. “I bounced around and around,” Elliot Continued on next page »

says, tears welling up in her eyes. “I lost my safety, and my security. I thought I had found it, finally, but now it’s gone. Thank God I am tenacious.” Elliot was able to find work and a roof over her head as manager at another clean and sober house, but says she is “barely holding on” financially. A chief concern for her and the other women is safety. At least one of the former tenants is staying in a halfway house where she doesn’t feel safe, describing it to her mother as “cluttered and filthy,” and she is keeping her belongings in the trunk of her car to prevent them from being stolen. She would go back and live with her family out of the county but her probation conditions mandate she stay in Humboldt. When the initial eviction came, Elliot gathered the household, trying to reassure the women and find them a dry place to stay. A friend housed six of them in a studio apartment for a few days. The women went through a resource list, calling every number they could find. They found themselves in competition for the few beds that were left. “We exhausted our resources,” says Jamie, who asked to be identified only by her first name. “I felt an extreme sense of loss. I felt grief and shock. It’s nice that we’ve stuck together.” At least two of the women may rent a room together that they found on Craigslist. Another is staying at a local church. Valdez plans to move back to San Jose. Fannie Mae has offered each woman $500 in relocation assistance. Giovannoni declines to say where the rent money she took from her tenants went while she wasn’t paying her mortgage, but another clean and sober housing operator, who wished to remain anonymous, emphasized that utility bills for a

house full of people can be enormous and that very few operators are making a profit. Giovannoni says these expenses alone often topped $1,000 a month. But she insists she is in the right. To back her position, she cites several YouTube videos on currency creation, insisting that mortgages as a concept are false. “My house is being paid for by my Social Security number,” says Giovannoni. “We all have an account, it puts money in my name. Everything is pre-paid. Using this concept, I started my research.” Lighthouse Law Club, one of the websites where Giovannoni went for support, offers a series of membership options for people to join “Mastermind Groups” that enable members to use “the collective intelligence of others.” The cheapest option, the “Constitutional Commandos Group,” is available for a $1,500 lifetime membership and $49 annual renewal. Giovannoni says she worked with a man she met via this site to help keep her house and paid him money for advice and support. The paperwork he was supposed to help her file, she claims, did not arrive on time. She went to court several times to file paperwork challenging the legality of the mortgage system but says the corrupt nature of the court system — which she says works in tandem with the corrupt banking system — stymied her attempts to fight the foreclosure. Giovannoni, who lived in Argentina when it was under fascist rule, says she simply does not trust the government. Her next step, she says, is to find a civil rights attorney. “I’m sad for her,” says Elliot. “She doesn’t seem to be able to see the big picture.” l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

But where there is a profit to be made or special interest power to consolidate, these basic conditions are at risk. People must be diligent to ensure liberty and justice for all. Consolidated absentee ownership reduces competition, threatens media localism and harms information diversity. So the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has historically reviewed and placed limits on consolidation of media ownership and control — including a national audience cap (39 percent) and limits on joint operating agreements and cross-ownership of news outlets in Designated Market Areas (DMAs), an industry term for regions where the population receives the same television offerings. Transfers of broadcast license ownership and operating control that enrich private owners are reviewed to ensure that the proposed change is also in the public interest. If the deal is not in the public interest, the FCC can deny the application or place conditions on the license. That is how it is supposed to work. Sadly, FCC efforts to prevent media consolidation have struggled and failed to meet the goal, with

fewer and larger corporations controlling more and more media. “Preventing monopolies in local media and turning back the tide of corporate consolidation has never been more vital than it is today,” declared North Coast Congressman Jared Huffman upon introduction of the Local and Independent Television Protection Act (HR 3478). The proposed legislation would require the FCC to remove an obsolete loophole and prevent any one owner from gaining monopolistic control over a local TV market. He introduced the legislation in response to a move by the commission this year to unleash consolidation of control in the broadcast TV marketplace nationwide. The local DMA for Eureka was among the first to experience the tectonic shift toward consolidation earlier this year when the largest TV broadcast operator in the nation, Sinclair Broadcasting Group, moved to acquire Bonten Media, the entity controlling four TV stations in the Eureka DMA. The FCC had just (within 24 hours!) reopened an obsolete loophole called the “UHF discount rule” to make this possible. Some folks might say the fact that one absentee owner controlled four TV stations on the North Coast was already wrong. Some folks might say that Bonten actually made investments in the market when they acquired the stations — im-

proving service in the DMA. And some folks will point out that Sinclair is under a cloud of controversy for political shenanigans, forcing stations to air hard right messages and “terror alert” programs that foment fear and loathing to serve a partisan agenda. The Sinclair juggernaut continues expanding, its efforts to acquire Tribune an ongoing national story. Access Humboldt and the League of Women Voters of Humboldt County (LWVHC) opposed Sinclair Broadcast Group’s acquisition of Bonten Media Group because the transaction failed to meet the public interest standard, noting that the deal includes the only local Spanish language TV outlet in our region. An open letter was offered inviting Sinclair to ensure localism with meaningful investments in local news and information, promote universal access with investments in new infrastructure and provide transparency and accountability to local jurisdictions through community-based participation in local programming. (See the letter at www. accesshumboldt.net/site/open-letter-sinclair-broadcasting.) The League of Women Voters, a nonpartisan political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works to increase understanding of major public policy issues and influences public policy through education and advocacy. The league has long worked for citizens’ right to know and for broad public participation in government. Thoughtful, unbiased news coverage from our local television stations is essential to this goal, especially that of local public affairs. Together, we support Huffman’s proposed legislation (HR 3478) to address the negative impacts of consolidated absentee ownership in our local media. Resilient communities require meaningful choice in their information ecosystem, including local and independent television. l Rollin Richmond is the president of the local League of Women Voters and spent 12 years helping lead Humboldt State University before retiring in 2014.

ou’ll have to excuse Humboldt County cannabis farmers if they feel they’ve been had. A trio of state agencies released emergency regulations Nov. 16 that will govern the launch of the state’s recreational and medical cannabis industries next year, dictating how cannabis products can be grown, manufactured, transported, tested, bought and sold (see NCJ Daily on page 23). There is a lot of information packed into the 278 pages but, in the eyes of locals and others who have watched this process closely, there’s also a glaring omission. The regulations effectively leave no limit on how big a cannabis farm can be. While the regulations do limit the sizes of grows depending on the type of license a grower obtains — with a cap of one acre per license — there is no limit to how many licenses a farmer can have, meaning there’s apparently nothing to stop a large corporation from going huge and cultivating dozens of acres or more. It’s the average Humboldt farmer’s nightmare. And it’s a bit baffling how it came

down. A cap has long been part of the conversation and generally regarded as a given. While it wasn’t written into Proposition 64, it was a talking point used to get buy-in from growers. Previous draft regulations included a 4-acre cap, and a Department of Food and Agriculture environmental impact report released Nov. 13 went further and recommended a 1-acre limit. But when the same agency released the regulations a few days later, the cap was effectively gone. Questioned on the about-face, department spokesman Steve Lyle told the Santa Rosa Press Democrat that the cap was “left out following evaluation of the emergency regulations, including input from stakeholders, that went on right up until the regulations were finalized.” That sure makes one wonder who those “stakeholders” were but it’s a safe bet they weren’t small farmers. The same Department of Food and Agriculture released a study last month estimating that Californians consume Continued on next page »

about 2.5 million pounds of cannabis annually while the state produces more than five times that amount — some 13.5 million pounds. There is a lot more supply than demand, and farmers going legit and forgoing the more lucrative — and risky — path of taking their harvests across state lines really wanted to see something that held the supply side of the equation in check and, in turn, held cannabis at a workable price point. The market is already totally saturated, with tales of growers struggling to find buyers and sometimes selling at a loss. California Growers Association Executive Director Hezekiah Allen told the San Francisco Chronicle he thinks the absence of a cap could be catastrophic for the industry, giving deep-pocketed corporations or individuals a clear advantage. This, he said, could create market forces that push growers currently trying to become compliant back into the black market. “There will be an abundant supply of dirt-cheap cannabis in the state and there is a real possibility that this marketplace could go through a bubble burst collapse,” he said.

Last week, the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted unanimously to issue temporary permits to the hundreds of growers stuck in the application backlog at the county planning department. The temporary permits will allow those growers to remain in good standing and in line to receive state permits, which are contingent on a grower being in local compliance. The canary in the coal mine for Allen’s theory that the emergency regulations will send growers scurrying back to the black market may be these temporary county permits. If local growers who had been standing in line to become compliant begin backing away from that process, it’s a pretty clear sign they believe the state just hopelessly stacked the deck against them. We should know pretty soon. l Thadeus Greenson is the news editor at the Journal. Reach him at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@ northcoastjournal.com. Follow him on Twitter @thadeusgreenson.

State Releases New Cannabis Regulations with Legalization Around the Corner

t looks like you’ll be able to munch down on that cannabis beef jerky come January, but the stony shrimp cocktail will have to wait. California dropped its long-awaited emergency medicinal and adult-use cannabis regulations yesterday, setting the rules for legal markets slated to open in 45 days on Jan. 1. The new regulations — released by the Department of Health, Department of Food and Agriculture, and the Bureau of Cannabis Control — diverge sharply in some cases from their draft counterparts released back in April. The new regulations lift a proposed cap on the size of marijuana farms, loosen restrictions on pesticide testing and clamp down on the potency of edibles. Collectively, the new regulations will dictate exactly how cultivators, manufacturers, distributors and dispensaries can operate, at least at the outset (the regulations will be revised next year). The single biggest change in the regulations seems to be the absence of any maximum size for cultivation operations. While the previous draft had proposed a 4-acre cap, the new regulations took

that out, meaning it will be entirely up to local control to limit the maximum size of farms. (A programmatic environmental impact report suggested a 1-acre cap.) The draft regulations also set the most stringent pesticide testing regulations of anywhere in the country, capping acceptable limits of pesticide residues at 10 times lower than testing regulations in Oregon, Washington and Colorado. This concerned not only cultivators but also testing laboratories, some of which said they couldn’t reliably test to those levels. The emergency regulations backed off and accepted the same limits currently in place in Oregon, Washington and Colorado. The testing requirements also phase in throughout the year, beginning with testing for substances considered “high” public health risks and expanding to include those deemed “minor” by the end of 2018. When it comes to edibles, the emergency regulations put potency limits in place that are much lower than much of what’s currently circulating on the medical market. The emergency regs limit edible products to containing 10 milligrams of

Fragrant coconut curry in a pumpkin bowl.

Magic Pumpkin

Dinner and dessert from one kabocha Story and photos by Wendy Chan tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com

umpkins are my favorite fall and winter vegetable — though technically a fruit. There are so many dishes you can make with them and you can get few meals out of just one pumpkin. I also love them because they are high in nutrients, antioxidant rich and low calorie. The color of any pumpkin dish brings warmth to a dinner table, too. My boys have always loved curry chicken with green pumpkin. I remember when they were little how they would ask me to make this dish right after their school pumpkin patch trips. It’s a perfect one-dish meal for a busy weeknight. Every year, we would pick at least a dozen or more sweet kabochas and Jarrahdales for the winter. The price is reasonable during the fall and visiting a pumpkin patch is a great family trip. Over the last few years, I noticed that the mature pumpkins we picked can last

Setlist

A Musical Feast By Collin Yeo

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

t’s finally here. That most musical of feast days when we celebrate the gift of harmony with the rapturous delight of food. That most sacred day of eating for the musician and music fan alike. I am, of course, talking about the Wednesday, Nov. 22 feast day of Saint Cecilia, the patron saint of music. An early Roman martyr, Cecilia earned her stripes by singing from her heart and soul during the feast for her wedding to a pagan lord as a means to preserve her virtue. She was later beheaded for her efforts. As anyone who has been to a wedding (pagan or otherwise) or a feast knows, the preservation of anything virtuous during such events can often seem to require divine aid or intercession. Flippancy aside though, the connection to music as a means to transcend a difficult period in one’s life is a universal concept which should easily be appreciated by the religious and secular alike. We need art and sound to guide us through this whole thing, don’t we? So here’s an idea, how about during that other feast this week, which many of us are going to be attending and stuffing ourselves at, we take some time to appreciate the things that carry us through our trials and our triumphs. And if we look around us and are fortunate enough to see family, friends and our personal coterie of loved ones, and feel more triumph than trial, how about we break some of that good stuff off and share it with somebody else nearby who doesn’t have all that going on right now? Happy Thanksgiving.

Thursday

It’s Thanksgiving. And no matter how you feel about this holiday — whether you have the option to gorge with loved ones or you are one of the unmentioned many, stuck on the outside of this family feast day and looking into brighter windows — things tend to freeze up on this day. I can’t endorse a live show today because vastly powerful societal mores have deemed this a closed session for nearly all our live music venues. But don’t let that stop you from celebrating the spirit of live music. Pick up a guitar and spend 20 minutes learning a meaningful three- or four-chord song. Might I suggest “Freight Train” by Elizabeth Cotton, “Blowin’ in the Wind” by Bob Dylan or that old classic “Louie, Louie?” How about the entire Ramones discography? That would make for

some fun sing-alongs for the post-prandial digestion period that too many families waste on football. How about just singing some good songs solo or a cappella with your family, like “Amazing Grace,” or “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun?” Rejoice and make noise, whether on your own or with kin (which can sometimes feel like being alone, too). Enjoy the day and find music.

Friday

The North Coast Repertory Theater continues its run of the musical Pippin at 8 p.m., a story about a prince journeying through an unusual world and trying to find his own place. With music and lyrics by Stephen Schwartz and based on the book by Roger O. Hirson ($16-$18). At 9 p.m. the Griffin hosts its Loose Joints Review, a free night of dance music curated by DJ Knutz & friends. Come one, come all, and dance your knutz off.

Saturday

Two vinyl-spun jiggle fests await your pleasure tonight: The remade/remodeled Soul Night at Humbrews at 9 p.m. has mutated into the similar-but-new Soul Party. This is the fifth show of the rechristened Mark 2 version of that old Humboldt classic soul dance vinyl revue. Familiar face DJ Red joins Jaymorg, Tanasa and other friends for some hip-slipping licorice-whipped tracks ($5). Meanwhile, over at the Alibi, the Radio Clash party kicks off at 11 p.m. with its new institutional sound of New Wave and Punk dance anthems deftly curated by the dedicated hands (and ears) of record spinners DJ Blancatron and DJ Anya ($2). Dance your misbegotten calories away with the lean chops and tight breaks these maestros create.

Sunday

Iris Dement has been writing songs for more than 30 years but her very first song, “Our Town,” which she wrote at the age of 25, might still be her most enduring. Its plain and plaintive liturgy about home and the people who live there crosses the geography of the earth and sets up street signs in the heart and the soul without obviously demarcating the train tracks dividing those zones. Her words describe the simple beauty of an old lover’s face, which reminds you of youth or a broken-down car, which reminds you of real freedom.

32 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 23, 2017 • northcoastjournal.com

She was one of my late mother’s favorite songwriters and my mother was nothing if not a real fan of simple and profound sentiment in songwriting. If you have tickets to Dement’s sold-out show at the Old Steeple at 7:30 p.m. tonight, don’t be surprised if you see a guy who looks like me in the back of the room smiling through damp eyes ($50, $45 advance).

Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn play the Van Duzer Theatre on Wednesday, Nov. 29 at 7 p.m. Courtesy of the artists

Monday

The Humboldt State University music department hosts a trumpet and horn recital at Fulkerson Hall at 8 p.m. (price TBA). Expect solo pieces and concertos played with bright impeccability and executed with the eager embouchure of the dedicated young novice musician.

Tuesday

Possibly the greatest bluegrass group on the planet will be visiting Humbrews tonight at 8 p.m. when Del McCoury brings his band to our wet, green grasslands ($40). In a half century of playing, McCoury has worked his magic with everyone from the legendary Bill Monroe to contemporary noodlers Phish, all the while maintaining his reputation as the heart, soul and technical master of the genre. As our stars and geniuses grow older and blink out, we must remember to witness them, if only for an evening, so we can carry their music with us to enrich the rest of our lives. This is one such evening. Two blocks over at the Arcata Theater Lounge, a different set of legends takes the stage at 9 p.m. as Israel Vibration returns to Humboldt County to sing soulful reggae harmonies for a fresh generation’s ears while backed by the ever-faithful backing band Roots Radic. Rude Lion opens. ($25).

Wednesday

It just so happens that arguably two of the greatest living banjoists, Bela Fleck and the Mandarin-fluent polymath Abigail Washburn, are also husband and wife. And they must really love each other, as they tour and play together quite frequently, a lifestyle that would certainly put a fatal strain on a less harmonious union. Tonight at 7 p.m. we are lucky enough to have their near-decade musical honeymoon make a pit-stop at the Van Duzer theater for a night of picking and intimate musical interplay courtesy of the two masters themselves ($56). l 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. Collin Yeo is thankful for history books, which teach the unpleasant truths around American holidays, the freezing rain, which separates the lifers from the casuals in Humboldt County, the sense of charity and goodwill alive in the local saints in our community, and the Charlie Brown Christmas Album, which he will be listening to from now until Easter. He lives in Arcata.

Nothing raises your gratitude level like time spent in nature.

Holiday Kick-off in Old Town

Submitted

In case the early presence of glittering ornaments, tiny elves on shelves or Christmas movie marathons on not one, but two Hallmark movie channels haven’t tipped you off, the holidays are here.

Also at the Gazebo, on Saturday, Nov. 25 at 11:30 a.m., stand with others under the cannon for Eureka Main Street’s Snowball Drop as hundreds of “snowballs” shoot into the sky and rain down, each with coupons, prizes and discounts to be redeemed at Old Town and downtown businesses.

What the Doctor Ordered Wonder’s dose of sugar, Mudbound’s bitter pill By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

WONDER. In word and more frequently in deed, I may or may not have conveyed/ made a lifestyle of an aversion to things wholesome. But living as we now do in a time defined by venality and exclusionary thinking, when we are “governed” by lecherous reptilian billionaires with no apparent regard for the well-being of others, a little wholesomeness in art and in life goes a long way. Provided, of course, that such nourishing stuff is administered in such a way as to side-step cliché, saccharine faux-philosophy and the like. While Wonder likely will not be held up as a cinematic achievement of much stature, it delivers a neat little shot of empathy, compassion and kindness without venturing too far off the path. Nate (Owen Wilson) and Isabel (Julia Roberts) Pullman, an affluent New York couple who live in a beautiful brownstone, have a charming teenage daughter named Via (Izabel Vidovic). This is short for Olivia, in a demonstration of the too-clever character-naming tendency so prevalent in YA literature (the movie was adapted from R.J. Palacio’s novel by Jack Thorne, Steven Conrad and director Stephen Chbosky, of The Perks of Being a Wallflower, 2012), but it’s an errant note of preciousness within a generally honest and sincerely rendered story, so it can be afforded a pass. The Pullmans also have a 10-year-old son named Auggie (Jacob Tremblay), who was born with severe facial deformities. Having undergone dozens of reparative

and cosmetic surgeries, he can breathe and see and talk and eat quite well, but he looks different. Isabel sidelined her master’s degree studies to care for and home-school Auggie, but after 10 years decides the time is right for him to go to “real school.” He’s justifiably resistant and the war of attrition that is childhood/adolescence/life soon makes him a casualty. He is bullied, shamed, avoided, diminished and marginalized. Still, he keeps at it, excelling academically and meeting his attackers with potentially toxic internalization. Meanwhile, Via navigates the troubled waters of high school and puberty, returning from summer vacation to find her best friend will no longer speak to her and mourning the loss of her grandmother and confidante. As the narrative unfolds, it reinforces the notion that we can never know the depth or breadth of another person’s suffering. It gives life to the feeling of being other and of being alone in that, but also to the sublime moment of finding another, a friend with whom we can fuse our loneliness, thereby destroying some of it. And it celebrates togetherness, the gradual transcendence of xenophobia and separation through open-heartedness and communication. The audience with which I saw Wonder applauded when it ended. I like to think it was more for the idea that we can come together in kindness than it was for the movie. PG. 113M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK. MUDBOUND.

A BAD MOMS CHRISTMAS. The writing in this sequel wastes the comedic charms of leads Mila Kunis, Kristen Bell and Kathryn Hahn, who play frustrated moms visited by their respective mothers (the equally squandered Christine Baranski, Cheryl Hines and Susan Sarandon). R. 104M. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK.

apparently we need frequent, jolting reminders of history to make progress. The history in question being a multi-century, institutionalized and systematic enslavement and disenfranchisement, and a legacy of violence toward an entire people of the United States. It’s a history we would hope to put behind but which art like Mudbound will remind us is an active and an ulcerating element of our culture today. In rural Mississippi, two native sons return home from service in Europe in World War II. Jamie McAllan (Garrett Hedlund) is white and received decorations for his time as a bomber pilot. His brother Henry (Jason Clarke) has recently purchased a farm and settled there with his wife Laura (Carey Milligan), two young daughters and repugnant racist father Pappy (Jonathan Banks). Ronsel Jackson (Jason Mitchell) commanded a tank as a sergeant, was greeted by the people of Europe as a liberator and an equal and fell in love. His tenant-farmer parents Hap (Rob Morgan) and Florence (Mary J. Blige) work a section of the McAllan farm, saving up and warily letting in the possibility of owning their own farm. They are hopeful, forward looking and generous; still, they struggle to understand Ronsel’s difficulty both in coming back from combat and in coming back from a place where daily degradation does not have to be accepted as normal. As the dense, muddy days drag along, the relationship between Laura and Henry decays and weakens, while Jamie reaches out to Ronsel. The latter two become clandestine drinking buddies, embracing the ability to commiserate and meet on common ground. But it’s Mississippi and it’s 1945 and things must take an awful turn. Director Dee Rees (Pariah, 2011) and

Virgil Williams co-wrote the screenplay, which is adapted from a novel by Hillary Jordan. Rees shows a steady hand and an unflinching eye for both the emotional and physical details of the movie’s time and place. Her pacing, controlled and almost-literary (in the early going, the presence of multiple narrators threatens to distract) contributes to the infinite-afternoon, deep South look and tone of the movie. The cast give standout performances all around; Jason Mitchell has been singled out here and there (and deservedly), but Morgan and Blige are, to me, the living heart of the piece, as people striving to make a world for their children that would have been all but unimaginable for themselves, much less for their parents. R. 134M. STREAMING ON NETFLIX.

DADDY’S HOME 2. Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg reprise their roles as “co-dads,” this time struggling with their own polar opposite dads (racist boil Mel Gibson and John Lithgow) with mildly humorous and pointedly heartwarming results. A benign and forgettable signal that Ferrell isn’t trying anymore. PG13. 98M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

JoAn Flora Moran Girija 8/14/39–10/31/17 JoAn Moran was born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, to Margaret and Hubert S. Moran. She attended the College of Wooster, in Ohio, and studied cultural anthropology. After graduation she joined the Peace Corps and spent 2 years in the highlands of Ethiopia teaching school. She returned to New York City where she married Russell Kruckman. They moved to Chicago where he had a teaching position. Soon thereafter, they encountered Ram Dass and their lives changed. In 1970 they travelled to Europe, bought a Volkswagen bus, and travelled overland to India to find an authentic Teacher: Swami Muktananda. He, according to tradition, renamed JoAn “Girija” and Russell “Shankar”. In 1973, Girija and Shankar were sent to Ann Arbor to found the first Siddha Yoga Ashram in the west. They eventually parted ways, and Girija went on to direct and teach in ashrams in Ann Arbor, Chicago, Houston, and Honolulu. In 1996, Girija moved to Rigdzin Ling, a Tibetan Buddhist retreat center in the Trinity Alps of northern California founded by Chagdud Tulku Rinpoche. On his passing, she became the student of Rinpoche’s lineage holder Lama Drimed Norbu studying, doing practice and retreat under his tutelage. Twelve years later she moved to Shiva Ashram in Australia, to teach, where she spent the next 2 years. Girija moved to Arcata in 2011. She thought of herself as a post traditional meditation teacher. She taught in venues throughout the community, and as a guest lecturer for teachers in Religious Studies at Humboldt State University. In 2014, she established her own center, Amrit Anubhav. She published a book, Tonglen for Our Own Suffering, in 2014. Teaching largely from the texts of Kashmir Shaivism, Girija was greatly informed by her study and practice of Tibetan ( Tantric) Buddhism, Astrology and various systems of personality development. She was also a skilled practitioner of Jin Shin Jyutsu, an ancient art of physical healing. She will be remembered for her abundant generosity in sharing her life experience, her keen intellect, her deep wisdom and her unfailing devotion to her beloved students and many friends. She had the capacity to convey “divine presence,” and “unconditional positive regard”, and for many in our community, was a spiritual advisor. In her own words, “I am grateful to all I regard as the manifestation of the great play of Consciousness, the ever–blissful nectar of Self Awareness.” She is survived by her sister, Mary Miller, and her brother, Rick Moran, and their families. She was cared for by her students and died peacefully at her final ashram, Amrit Anubhav.

Belphegor plotting his next fiendish move. From Collin de Plancy’s 1818. Dictionnaire Infernal.

nd Israel joined himself unto Baalpeor: and the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel.” — Numbers 25:3

What was it about Baalpeor, a god of the Moab people, that so ticked off the Lord? Presumably it was of his reputation for seducing people “by suggesting to them ingenious inventions that will make them rich.” Thus spake Wikipedia. Sounds like my sort of god, candidate for patron saint of all dot-com geniuses. Later, Baalpeor became Belphegor, where he’s found in John Milton’s Paradise Lost as one of the Seven Princes of Hell. The illustration (showing him sitting on the toilet?) is from Collin de Plancy’s 1818 Dictionnaire Infernal, which describes demons of every shape and size. Belphegor, according to de Plancy, was Hell’s ambassador to France. (“Bonjour, nigauds!”) He’s also described as “sloth incarnate,” so next time you’re too lazy to do something, just blame this dude. More recently, though, he was adopted by math whiz Clifford Pickover as the name for a diabolical prime number. (A prime, you recall, can only be divided by 1 and itself.) “Belphegor’s Prime” is: 1,000,000,000,000,066,600,000,000,00 0,001 This is not only palindromic, reading the same forwards and back (like “Yreka Bakery”), but also contains, in its very heart, the “Number of the Beast,” 666. It sits between 13 zeros on each side. And 13 is, of course, deemed unlucky, perhaps because Judas was the 13th participant at the Last Supper. For number nerds — I know you’re out there — Belphegor’s prime is one of the sequence 1?666?1 where ? is the number of

zeros. First up is 0, giving 16,661, then Belphegor’s 13, followed by 42, 506, 608, etc. For good measure, the sum of the digits of 16,661 — 20 — equals the sum of the digits of its prime index, 1,928. This would all be more exciting if 666 really were the Number of the Beast but, as I have written before (Field Notes, July 11, 2013), it’s really 616. That’s according to the earliest — 300 AD — fragment of Revelation, the last book of the Bible, in which 666 is supposed to be found. Hey, if it’s good enough for The Da Vinci Code and The Omen … And (cue spooky music) 666 is the sum of the numbers on a roulette wheel. The trouble with primes is that once you start investigating them, you can’t stop — literally, since there’s an infinity of them (proved 2,300 years ago by Euclid in a masterful bit of logic — I’ll show his proof online at www.northcoastjournal.com). To whet your appetite: This year, 2017, is prime. As is 314,159, the first six digits of pi. You don’t have to go that big to find prime oddities. Take 73, the 21st prime — 73 and 21 reverse to 37 and 12 and (dramatic pause) 37 is the 12th prime number. The largest known prime, found last year, is one less than 2 to the power 74,207,281, a number that would take the equivalent of six Bibles to print. Which sounds kind of complicated until you write it out in binary form: 11111 …111 (74,207,260 ones). No doubt Belphegor would appreciate the inventiveness in that. l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) is convinced his prime-numbered years are his best years. Roll on 79!
