‘Ought to be Criminal’

Editor: Regarding Thadeus Greenson’s coverage of the St. Joseph abortion case (“Judge Takes St. Joseph Abortion Case Under Submission,” Feb. 20), it seems to me that it is a mistake to call a hospital a “religious hospital” unless it is dispensing religion. Any physician feeling his or her soul is endangered could call in another qualified doctor whose concern is primarily for the life/health of the patient.

It is an unfortunate reality that we have very limited medical options here in Humboldt County and it seems something of a luxury to permit any religion’s dogma to decide life or death decisions. Doctors, not theologians, need to be in control of health care; theologians, not physicians, need to be in control of spiritual guidance. To give a patient who is obviously in serious condition “a bucket and some towels” just in case something happens in the car en routeto Mad River Hospital, where she has been ejected to, is unforgivable and ought to be criminal.

I have long felt that “pro-life” and “pro-abortion” were terms of absolute nonsense. No one is for abortion and no one is against life. This is political

bias, meant to make the other side look wrong, or worse — and, often as not, used to support the not always, but usually, religious side. People, women or other, in need of critical care, need to receive it (whether or not they’re Roman Catholic or any other religion). As Mark Twain said, “Them’s my sentiments.”

‘Transit

Funding is Essential’

Editor:

Dear Humboldt County Board of Supervisors, relevant decision-makers and concerned community members: This letter is in support of using Measure O funding for transit and related services, per the measure language/agreement (Mailbox, Feb. 27).

There is the unfortunate misconception by some that a robust transit system would not be useful for Humboldt County. This is false. Transit is as useful as it is available. I and many others voted yes on Measure O so that additional funds would be allocated for transit. That was the agreement in the measure.

I and other transit supporters are in

favor of using funds for roads, there is no problem there, our roads need maintenance. That said, transit is equally as important. A growing number of youth, students, people with disabilities, non-drivers, working people, seniors, etc., are using transit and that is because our local transit system is improving. There are many people who have never driven and/or do not drive. This occurs for many di erent and relevant reasons.

Therefore, many people either need or prefer to take transit and the numbers are growing! So, decision-makers, please be advised that transit funding is essential to a vibrant local system and for connectivity with regional systems. Funding our transit system as promised in Measure O language will benefit a growing number of people. Thanks for keeping your promise to the people who voted for Measure O for the purpose of increased transit funding.

An Ode to Nature Doug Carroll 2024

Murmurations of wild birds

Create poetry in the sky

All become one

And my joyful tears cry

An ode to nature

Babies and puppies and kittens too

New life, new hopes, new dreams

I’m inspired by the continuity of life

And I scream

An ode to nature

Gardens grow providing food to eat

From tiny sprouts to full grown vines

Amazed by the transformation

I sing with astonished mind

An ode to nature

Suns dare to rise everyday

Moons wax and wane across the sky

I marvel at stars light years away

And I vow to try

An ode to nature

‘In Exile’

DA’s

o ce asks a judge to end Humboldt’s first three-strikes inmate’s potential

life imprisonment

By Thadeus Greenson

thad@northcoastjournal.com

Humboldt County District Attorney Stacey Eads is asking a superior court judge to resentence Patrick Harvey, reportedly the first local person sentenced under California’s three-strikes law, and order him released from custody.

The recall and resentencing motion is the first filed locally under a prosecutor-led resentencing pilot project initiated in 2021 and argues that resentencing Harvey — who has served more than 26 years of a 25-to-life sentence — is in the interest of justice. The 23-page motion, which was filed with another 230 pages of supplemental documents, argues that changes in the law and Harvey’s record of self-improvement work in prison, coupled with his expressions of remorse and post-release plans, all weigh in favor of the 53 year old being released from state custody for the first time since his arrest for a burglary in 1997.

“Mr. Harvey’s positive transformation, as well as his ability to find meaning and purpose from his current confinement, illustrate just how much circumstances have changed since the time he was sentenced to prison,” the motion reads. “Throughout his time in custody for the current o ense, Mr. Harvey has learned valuable life skills, become educated, committed himself to the rigorous self-improvement and has, within the extreme limits of incarcerations, proven he can live a meaningful and productive life. Indeed, Mr. Harvey has even come to view his time in prison as a blessing, rather than a curse, because it saved his life. As he writes, ‘[Before prison], I blamed … anyone or anything but myself. I tricked myself into thinking I was the victim. … If not for prison, I would have never saved my own life. A curse turned into a blessing in many ways.”

Harvey, whose candidacy for resentencing was the focus of the Journal’s April 18, 2024 cover story “Seeking Salvation,” received his life sentence June 2, 1998, after a jury convicted him of three felonies — first degree burglary, grand theft

and possession of a concealable firearm — for the Dec. 2, 1997, residential burglary, in which Harvey was unarmed but stole a pistol from the home.

In a series of previous phone interviews with the Journal from prison in early 2024, Harvey said he went through a period of hopelessness after being sent to prison but had come to focus on “leaving in amends,” helping those around him while trying to become a better person.

“I do that in showing that I owe society something, that I owe society what I took from it,” he said. “In living in amends, you atone for the damage you’ve done. And you do it daily.”

Created in 2019 and funded in 2021, the California County Prosecutor-led Resentencing Pilot Program features nine participating counties — including Humboldt — giving them the authority and resources to review old cases and identify potential candidates for resentencing. The program came amid a flurry of criminal justice reforms aimed at reducing California’s prison population but was unique in that it gave prosecutors the authority to ask courts to resentence inmates and explicitly directed them to consider inmates who had committed crimes against people, not the drug and property o enses that were the focus of other reforms.

To date, the project has resulted in more than 1,100 case reviews throughout the state, with 240 referred to a court for potential resentencing, with 227 of those requests granted, resulting in 174 inmates released from state prison. According to a recent report from RAND Corporation, a nonprofit policy think tank hired to evaluate the program, the Humboldt County District Attorney’s O ce reviewed four cases prior to Harvey’s but decided not to move forward with them. Currently, Humboldt County is the only of the nine counties participating in the project not to have seen an inmate resentenced and — before Harvey’s motion was filed Jan. 27 — it was the only county not to have yet sought an inmate’s resentencing.

The Humboldt County District Attorney’s O ce reportedly began reviewing Harvey’s case in early 2024 after it was brought forward by For the People, a nonprofit organization that has spearheaded the project and has helped guide its implementation.

According to the RAND report, Harvey’s case follows a couple of trends seen statewide. Specifically, the report found that while people incarcerated under California’s three-strikes law make up only 7 percent of the state prison population, they’ve made up 43 percent of cases referred for resentencing. Additionally, the report found that 56 percent of the individuals recommended for resentencing were over the age of 50, like Harvey, and had served enough time to become parole eligible.

The report also found significant variation in how participating district attorney’s o ces approached the project, noting that all were allowed to set their own eligibility criteria and some seemed to approach case reviews aggressively, bringing on extra help or partnering with outside organizations for the task, while others did not, resulting in disparate outcomes. For example, according to the report, Merced County reviewed approximately 26 percent of its inmate populations’ cases over the three-year project and Humboldt County reviewed only 1.2 percent of its potential cases while Riverside County’s review rate was the lowest of participating counties, at 0.6 percent.

As such, the report recommends streamlining eligibility criteria and setting case-review targets for future incarnations of the project, while also saying additional

GREAT

training for the sta s of district attorney’s o ces and public defender’s o ces is needed.

The motion for Harvey’s resentencing is scheduled to be heard March 11 by a Humboldt County Superior Court judge, who will have the authority to accept the motion and recall and resentence Harvey to time served, to reject the motion outright or to resentence Harvey in a way other than Eads has asked. (The RAND report, however, indicates the overwhelming majority of judges have followed prosecutors’ recommendations.)

Eads’ motion, in addition to arguing that Harvey’s criminal behavior was fueled in part by drug addiction and unmitigated childhood trauma that he has worked to address through counseling, self-improvement and substance use programs, asserts that he has put together a strong plan to avoid reo ending if released.

“Mr. Harvey’s robust relapse prevention plans demonstrate he understands his triggers and has developed positive coping mechanisms for stressors and insight into the circumstances of crime, all of which further underscore how circumstances have changed from the time he was sentenced such that his continued incarceration is no longer in furtherance of justice,” Eads’ motion says.

Specifically, the motion says Harvey has developed a “comprehensive wraparound reentry plan” that includes a commitment to enter Delancey Street, a two-year residential treatment program in San Francisco that has already accepted him, saying he even has documented transportation

mural Patrick Harvey painted at Pelican Bay State Prison in the early 2000s commemorating the lives lost in the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.

plans to get there immediately following his release. Additionally, the motion notes Harvey has extensive familial support, with numerous pledges to help him in any way possible. If released, Harvey plans to find work as a tattoo artist and painter, the motion says.

“In the long-term, however, Mr. Harvey intends to become a substance abuse counselor and help others who are on the same journey as him,” the motion says.

The report also notes that Harvey agreed to waive enough of his custody credits to allow him to be supervised by state parole services for two years following his release.

Speaking to the Journal in early 2024, Harvey said he felt like he was ready to take the next step in his daily e ort to “live in amends,” saying he wanted to be there for his aging parents and to be a positive member of the community. And he said sharing his story with the paper was part of that e ort, letting his community see his work and his e orts, and his e orts to address and atone for what he’d done.

“It is my community,” he said. “I’m not separate from my community. I’m part of it, in exile.”

Twenty-six years after it began, Patrick Harvey’s exile may soon come to an end.

Federal Funding Freeze Hamstrings Local Wildfire

Resiliency E orts

Local wildfire resiliency e orts have already been stymied by federal grant freezes and budget cuts, with some fearing badly needed fuels reduction e orts in vulnerable communities that had been funded and in line to be complete by the onset of severe fire season will not get done.

Not yet two months into the second presidency of Donald J. Trump, the North Coast continues to ascertain the on-theground impacts of a flurry of executive orders and Department of Government E ciency cuts. Just last week, the General Services Administration announced a plan to shutter hundreds of federal o ce spaces across the nation, including the property on Heindon Road in Arcata that houses local National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration o ces, and the Bureau of Reclamation o ce in Weaverville, which runs the Trinity River Restoration Project. Meanwhile, the Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services has been told that technical assistance providers helping with a local project to address youth homelessness have been fired, making the project more di cult to administer.

But a growing local concern is the impacts the new administration’s actions will have on fire resiliency e orts throughout the North Coast.

“Since the federal funding freeze, we’re at a total work stoppage,” says Jim Cotton, vice president of the Willow Creek Fire Safe Council. “My biggest fear is we’re going to miss an entire fire season of work.”

Cotton says the council has been working in a cooperative agreement with a handful of other nonprofits to administer $5.1 million in funding through the

U.S. Forest Service for fire resiliency work in an area that ranks in the 90th percentile for fire risk according to the Federal Register.

The funding was to be used to help landowners clear 100 feet of defensible space around their homes, identify water sources to be used to fight wildfires, create shaded fuel breaks protecting parts of the community and clearing ingresses and egresses to create both safe evacuation routes and clear access routes for firefighters and other first responders.

“All that is on hold, and we’re not sure if it’s even going to get done,” Cotton says. “The funding was in process and it’s been impounded, which isn’t legal. We’re stymied. We’re in limbo.”

Jill Demers, executive director of the Humboldt County Resource Conservation District, says the $5.1 million in funding referenced by Cotton is part of almost $10 million in wildfire resiliency and recov ery funds her agency had secured for the greater Willow Creek area, all of which is currently frozen.

Demers says the funding was allocated through the U.S. Forest Service to be spent on cooperative forest management programs, mostly on non-federal land. The projects identified were brought forward by local community members and organizations, Demers says, and included those mentioned by Cotton “to help firefighters defend life and property,” as well as site assessments, forest management plans, fuels mitigation e orts and erosion control in previously burned areas.

In most cases, she says funds were to be spent with local contractors, noting that in addition to leaving important fire protection work undone, the freeze is also leaving local crews out of work.

And Demers says she’s struggled to get answers as to why the funding has been held up or whether it will ultimately be released.

“I’ve spent more time on the phone with lawyers lately than I’d like,” she says. “We haven’t seen a federal payment in at least two months at this point, since before the new administration came in. We have been told, mostly via phone calls, not in writing, that many grants and programs are paused. We’ve been told some payments are being processed, but we’re not seeing that coming through.”

Demers says those payments are both reimbursements for work already done and funds slated to be released for future work. She says her “understanding” is that “anything Farm Bill related is going to be less impacted than anything through the Inflation Reeducation Act,” though she says o cial communications have been sparse.

As a small organization with no tax revenue that is almost entirely grant funded, Demers says the Humboldt County Resource Conservation District doesn’t have much wiggle room, so it has been forced to halt any work that doesn’t have funding in hand and has given one of its sta members a layo notice.

“We just have to be super conservative, which is heartbreaking because it means crews in Willow Creek are not working and wildfire resilience work isn’t getting done,” she says. “The inability to plan out has been pretty crippling.”

Meanwhile, at least one local agency got some welcome news this week. Shelter Cove Volunteer Fire Department Chief Nick Pape says he got an email March 3 saying a fire resiliency grant that had been abruptly frozen Jan. 31 had again been approved.

The funds are part of a $6 million, three-year grant secured a couple of years ago, Pape says, for a project to create 100-foot defensible space bu ers around every home and structure in Shelter Cove, and also clear vacant lots of fuels.

“It was really a game changer for the community,” Pape says of the grant, adding that the last couple of years had been spent planning, permitting and doing environmental review, with clearing work getting started this year with local contractors.

Then, he says, he got that Jan. 31 email saying a reimbursement request under the grant had been denied.

“We still to this day haven’t gotten a real explanation of exactly why, how it went down,” Pape says, adding the funds were part of the Inflation Reduction Act infrastructure bill passed in 2022. “It kind

of put us all in shock.”

Now told the money is back in line, Pape says he’s taking a wait-and-see approach, not wanting to put crews back to work unless there’s assurance they can be paid.

“Before we fully start, we want to make sure the program is still going to have reliable funding from the federal government,” he says, quickly adding that he’s hopeful. “We’re excited to get those guys working again.”

Nonetheless, with peak fire season looming in late August through early October, Pape says the funding freeze has been a setback, though he says he’s still hopeful it can see bu ers created around “most” structures and homes in the area by summer, though the vacant lots will likely have to wait.

“It definitely put us a month behind,” Pape says, saying he’s grateful to North Coast Congressmember Jared Hu man and Second District Humboldt County Supervisor Michelle Bushnell for their help getting the funding released.

Demers, for her part, says she’s trying to remain optimistic and take heart from the “scrappy organizations” like resource conservation districts, fire safe councils and community groups she works with.

“Thinking about those folks in Willow Creek and working with people who have been through, time and time again, the threat of wildfire, especially in this era of catastrophic wildfire, I guess that’s the take home — we’re not quitting,” she says. “It’s just harder to do what we’re trying to do, and harder to help these communities.”

Cotton says the Willow Creek Fire Safe Council’s work will also continue with whatever funds are available. He says the council has a wood chipping program that sees volunteers drive a chipper around the community to chew up tree limbs and other fuels on private property. And he says e orts to eradicate invasive species — which proliferate and add to the ladder fuel accelerant loads that can quickly spread a fire from the ground to the crown — will continue.

“Right now, we’re basically a volunteer operation,” he says. “The Willow Creek Fire Safe Council is always looking for donations, always looking for volunteers.”

To that end, Cotton says the organization’s annual corned beef diner fundraiser is coming up March 14, and folks can find other ways to help on the nonprofit’sFacebook page, or just call (530) 629-6008.

Splashing into Eureka

By Anne To anne@northcoastjournal.com

Something fishy is moving from the Woodley Island Marina’s docks across the bay to Eureka’s Madaket Plaza, where Humboldt County will have its first fisher’s market, starting in May or June.

Ashley Vellis, owner of Ashley’s Seafood, has been brewing up the idea of a local fish market since late 2019 and is now partnering with the North Coast Grower’s Association to organize it, currently working on fundraising to make the new addition to Eureka’s waterfront a reality.

Eureka City Manager Miles Slattery says he hopes the market will be similar to other events held in Eureka, like Art’s Alive and Friday Night Markets, which have been successful in bringing more people into the city.

“I think it’s something our community has been missing for a long time,” says Slattery. “We’re very supportive of our commercial fishing industry and I think it’ll be a good thing.”

Taking inspiration from dockside markets in Santa Barbara, San Diego and San Francisco, Vellis says that she wants to make it more accessible for people to purchase seafood directly from the

source. The vision is that local fishers will have stalls to sell their latest and freshest catch. Residents will then be able to take their fish to be filleted, or gutted and gilled at a processing station on site, before heading home with fish ready to cook. Currently, the plan is for the market to be open every other Saturday through October, when boats begin preparing for the crabbing season.

There is also the possibility local food trucks will attend the market and serve fresh seafood on the spot, though Vellis says those ideas are still in the works, and the primary focus is just to allow local fishers to sell directly to their customers.

Yoshi Shimura, a member of the local commercial fishing fleet, says fish like rockfish, halibut and potentially salmon will be in season during the months the market is open.

Vellis says she’s hopeful a variety of local fishing boats will participate. “This is for all Humboldt County commercial fishermen, and I’d like to express it’s from Shelter Cove to Orick, so we’re hoping to really build something that everybody can work with and eventually everybody can be a part of.”

Vellis says the goal is not for the market to replace direct sales already under way from the docks in Woodley Island Marina, but to give customers and fishing crews a new option. “We want to really encourage people to still feel comfortable to go visit your fishermen down on the waterfront,” she says, while noting the docks pose a barrier for some customers. “A lot of the feedback that I’ve heard was: ‘It’s really hard to get down there,’ ‘We just don’t know whenever they’re there,’ and ‘Physically, I struggle walking down the walkways and down onto the dock.’ And we wanted to make it more family friendly. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen littles kind of run past their parents to go see something at the end of the dock.”

Despite the county being right next to the coast, Humboldt County has never had a fisher’s market. And many feel it’s long time it did.

Native communities in Humboldt County have caught and consumed their own fish — especially salmon, a dietary and cultural staple — for millennia, though the commercial industry didn’t start up until the 1850s, when Eureka became one

of California’s most productive commercial fishing ports.

According to a fishing sustainability report prepared by then Humboldt State University, commercial fishing locally was generating about $12 million a year in annual revenue by the mid 1960s, making up about 5.5 percent of Eureka’s economy. By 1970, Humboldt Bay’s 450 commercial fishing boats were hauling in more than 25 million pounds of seafood a year, according to the report.

But in recent decades, the industry has struggled. Costs for everything from fuel to permits have risen steadily, the climate crisis and other factors have impacted fish populations, and regulations aimed at preserving species — including crab and salmon — have tightened.

Only about 100 commercial boats now dock at Woodley Island Marina, according to the Humboldt Bay Harbor District. As of 2020, according to the California Department of Fish and Wildlife, about 12 million pounds of seafood annually was coming o docks in Eureka to head to market.

Shimura, who moved to the county from Southern California in 2018, says he’s been surprised by how hard it is to find fresh fish in Humboldt County. “When I first came up here, I was shocked [at the lack of] availability of fresh fish, especially in a fishing port town,” he says. “In my opinion, I think you should have a fish market on each end of town and the harbor, being able to walk up to the harbor

and buy fresh fish o the boats, but there was no fish market open, and barely anybody sold fish o the docks.”

Slattery says the city had o cial plans to create an o -sale fish market when Madaket Plaza was developed back in 2011, but they did not come to fruition. “If you’ve been in Jack’s Seafood, that front portion of the restaurant when you walk in to the left, that was supposed to be an o sale [market]. That’s what it was designed for,” he says, adding that the market just didn’t make it into final plans. “The cards just didn’t fall the right way and it didn’t happen at that point, so it just never got built.”

Shimura says not many residents know they can purchase fresh fish at the docks. “Selling our product is harder than catching the product,” he says. “It kind of sounds ridiculous but that’s what our battle is. There’s plenty of times where there’s good fishing and you just don’t go cause there’s nowhere to sell the product. I think it’s a shame, because there’s a lot of local people that want product and they just don’t know.”

Shimura says when he can fish, he usually takes his catch down to Petaluma or San Francisco to sell as it gives him a better opportunity to earn a little more money. “What I’m seeing happening [at the markets] in San Diego, Santa Barbara, Oceanside, all these little fishermen are able to completely sell out of their catch

in hours instead of having to sit on your boat with a sign up for the whole weekend, maybe a whole week, and risking the quality, the freshness of your fish, and maybe even having to discard some of your catch because it’s not fresh anymore because it’s taking so long,” Shimura says.

Megan Kenney, director of the North Coast Growers Association’s Harvest Hub, says the market will allow fishers cut out processors and middlemen to sell directly to customers in an e cient way. “The dockside market is something that other communities have done and has been very successful to really uplift fishermen and give them the opportunity to increase their sales and also just be more in control

of their market opportunities,” she says.

Kenney says it’s di cult for small commercial fishing boats to compete against large-scale operators, which drive down prices, likening the situation to small local small farmers competing against industrial mega producers.

“We have all of these huge fishing and international fishing vessels that can just go and scoop up everything in the ocean,” Kenney says. “They don’t really care about by-catch or making sure that they’re not catching other mammals or things within their nets,whereas our fishing fleet is really small-scale. A lot of them have the ability to sort through and make sure that they’re not killing animals that they aren’t intending to bring back to shore for food. Right now, if fishermen in Humboldt want to be able to sell their fish wholesale, they have to go through these very large processors who are continually increasing the costs that the fishermen have to pay in order to get them to sell their fish for them.”

Patrick Burns, who owns the fishing vessel BELLAJII, says the low prices o ered by large processing companies make it di cult for smaller fishers to focus on providing quality over quantity. “It’s very hard for a small guy to make a living o of what the companies are o ering to pay,” he says. “Because a lot of times the price is so small that it forces you to have to go out and try to catch in volume so that you can make any profit.”

Despite struggles with pricing and sales, Burns continues to fish. “The best way I can put it is, if

you fall in love with the misery, your heart will never be empty,” Burns says. “That’s the bones of it. It can be a miserable, hard job, but there’s something about it. When you’re out on the ocean, and you see the things that we see, and you experience the things that we experience, and you have a bond with your deck hands and everybody out there, you don’t want to let that go.”

Burns says he’s hoping the market will allow him to keep doing what he loves, while fetching a better price. “I’m hoping that it addresses fishermen getting a fair price for their catch instead of having to sell their catch for pennies on the dollar to a company that’s going to turn it right around and sell it to the general consumer,” he says. “Instead of getting that very low price, we’ll be able to cut out some of the middleman

and actually experience getting a fair price for our product.”

What’s Good? Lao Noodles and Birria Ramen

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jen@northcoastjournal.com

Piak Sen Weather

February’s wet and windy exit is hardly the last we’ll see of chilly weather. Well, fine. The edge of cold and dampness makes hovering over a bowl of hot noodles and broth just a little more pleasing. Ramen has lately popped up on more menus to challenge the near noodle monopoly pho had previously held in our county, but don’t count out the Lao ka piak ($14) at Eureka’s Wok in Wok Out (307 Second St.). You’ll have to bypass the always excellent curry-spiked kapoon noodles beckoning from the menu and for that I wish you strength.

Also known as khao piak sen, its freshly made, hand-cut white noodles composed of rice and tapioca flour have a soft, chewy thickness to rival Japanese udon. The starch from those noodles thicken the pale fragrant chicken broth to a lovely silkiness. Comforting as it is in flavor and texture, it’s no wonder Laos is packed with stalls selling piak sen from morning to late at night.

The Worasens, owners of the Old Town restaurant, make their broth with garlic and ginger, topped with handful of chopped green onion, crispy fried shallots and thinly sliced poached pork or shreds of chicken — both are fine choices. A squeeze of lime is a tart counter to the rich, subtle soup, and the usual additions of sriracha and chili oil are on o er for

customization, along with a small bowl of white sugar. Our server’s tip about sprinkling a little sweetness into the bowl was solid, and I will henceforth be consulting her about all my life choices. If nothing else, it’s an excuse to stop in and ruminate over a steaming bowl of noodles.

Follow the Trompo

Whatever I crave or plan when I walk up to a taco truck so often goes out the order window when I catch sight of a trompo. All that spice-reddened al pastor sizzling and dripping on a vertical spit is nearly impossible to pass up. And in the nighttime glow of the Tacos Don Paco truck, the trompo turns like a lighthouse beacon leading me across a darkened parking lot toward happiness.

Owner Jose Escobar, who hails from Mexico City, says he’s partial to the al pastor himself, as well as the alambres. “Maybe everything,” he says.

While the street tacos and quesabirria are popular among regulars, the alambres with pork al pastor are a shrewd move (three for $14). Pull your eyes from the mesmerizing trompo and watch Escobar in the window, tossing the meat with onions and peppers on the flat-top grill before blanketing it all with cheese and sweeping it into a trio of lightly browned flour tortillas to be topped with cilantro and onion.

The result is the promise fajitas make but never truly fulfill.

The birria ramen is another strong contender, too ($13). The consommé, cooked for hours and heavy with shredded beef, is a fine match for packaged ramen noodles, brightened by cilantro, chopped onion and radish slices. This is the fusion we’re looking for, and it can be found Tuesday through Thursday at 2020 Main St. in Fortuna, and Friday through Sunday at 4 Fourth St. in Eureka.

(Pro tip: The folks at Tacos Don Paco are happy to put your takeout in a container from home if you want to skip the disposables. If you’re picking up the birria ramen, that’s going to require a 4-cup container.)

Muller’s Burning Basket Project Comes to Zero to Fierce

By Tamar Burris artbeat@northcoastjournal.com

When Mavis Muller found herself in Arcata last year, she knew she had landed somewhere special. A renowned basket weaver, storyteller and installation artist — as well as a self-described “migratory artist” — Muller leaves her Alaskan nest during the fall and travels south for several months. While on the road, she exhibits her work and engages in community art projects. Immediately taken by Humboldt and its creative vibe, which reminded her so much of her home in Homer, Muller learned of Arcata Playhouse Arts. There she found a perfect fit for her Burning Basket project, the annual Zero to Fierce festival, a 10-day artistic extravaganza celebrating talented women from Humboldt community and beyond. This year, she is back once more for the Zero to Fierce festival with a new interactive piece: “Outpour - Basket of Giving and Receiving.”

Given the moniker “artivist” by author and wilderness hero Edward Abbey, Muller has been using her art as activism in defense of the wild natural world for over 40 years. Her work generally incorporates community action with ancestral, homesteading skills she uses in her daily life

in Alaska and her basket burning project is no exception. Muller has led a total of 41 Burning Basket enactments in and outside of Alaska and abroad, first initiating the project over 20 years ago. Each basket is created and burned with a di erent theme in mind. She weaves her contemporary basket installation with such consciously gathered natural materials such as fennel, eucalyptus bark, cattail, flax and yard clippings, and each time she incorporates community involvement in some fashion. Some of the woven sculptures have been as large 15 feet tall and 8 feet wide.

“Most of my artmaking has taken place in a solitary way in my studio … I had a desire to expand my craft to a larger size, outdoors, into the real life of the community and collaborate with others to share the magic,” says Muller. “I thought the first burning basket was a one-time experience, but the immediate passionate response led me to believe in the importance of impermanent, collaborative art as unifying, as a healing force and as a civic function. [Last year] I found a place to stay [in Arcata], built a big heart shaped basket to install in the lobby for public participation during the festival and it was ultimately ignited and burned as the festival

finale. It was called ‘Many Thanks - Basket of Giving and Receiving.’ It was magical.”

Hoping to create more magic for this year’s festival, Muller will be weaving a 6-foot, heart-shaped basket once again installed in the lobby of the Arcata Playhouse during Zero to Fierce. Along with the basket, she will provide Japanese origami paper cranes for folks to write on — whether it is names of departed loved ones or wishes and sentiments for peace and non-violence, as symbolized by the crane. People will be able to tuck personal messages into an opening in the basket. There will also be red paper tassels that visitors can place on the basket in remembrance of stolen, missing and murdered women, “which has become a heartbreaking reality across the US, including Alaska,” says Muller.

As Muller sees it, along with other themes and sentiments, her baskets are a symbolic way to celebrate the waterways and flyways that connect all of us as communities and as a small world. The idea of “Outpour” for this year’s festival basket is closely tied to the historic dam removals on the Klamath River.

“Our basket, ‘Outpour - Basket of Giving and Receiving,’ encourages us to gather together in an act of flowing freely and a pouring out of deep gratitude for the gifts the natural world gives us, so we may receive insights and inspiration from the beautiful watery places we love as well as the other meaningful aspects of personal participation,” says Muller. “Endings are also beginnings. Opportunity is sometimes disguised as loss. The event of dam removals on the Klamath so the salmon can return home is remarkable and significant

to me, because in Alaska we also are wild salmon warriors with decades long e orts to keep salmon habitat healthy for our rich fisheries. It is heartwarming to celebrate that victory.”

At the end of the festival at sundown on March 9, Muller will give an artist talk and the completed basket will be transported outside to Eighth Street between L and N streets, where it will be set ablaze, sending the collective outpouring of positive wishes and hopes into the universe.

Frequently asked the question: “Why burn it?” Muller likes to evade a direct answer, saying that she does not want to take away from anyone else’s perception or experience of the event. What she will say, though, is that the basket burns “so that we can do it again.” And that every basket burned reminds her how much she likes to give a good gift.

“Outpour - Basket of Giving and Receiving” will be on display at the Arcata Playhouse March 3-9. In addition to creating the basket, Muller will be teaching a basket-making class at the Playhouse March 3-6 and giving an artist talk on March 3.

A GOP FAQ

By Jennifer Fumiko Cahill jennifer@northcoastjournal.com

Well, it’s been a wild couple of weeks, and we’ve been hearing from more traditional party members having trouble keeping up with a platform that shifts like a drunk carnie is pulling levers on the ride. After all, not all of us came up listening to this generation’s hateful right-wing podcasts; some of us listened to hateful right-wing radio. We understand it can be tough to navigate these changes when your identity is so strongly linked to a political position in a way that is definitely not identity politics. Let’s go over a few common concerns. As a Reagan-era Republican who remembers the Cold War, I can’t accept snuggling in the lap of a former-KGB authoritarian like Putin. There’s a simple exercise for this. Sit in a quiet place, close your eyes and play Rocky IV from start to finish in your mind’s eye, but replacing Dolph Lundgren as Russian boxer Ivan Drago with the infamously Canadian Michael J. Fox in a pair of maple leaf silk shorts. Canada is the enemy now. OK, but are we really going to abandon Ukraine? Lol, yes. Oh, you’re serious. Some of the confusion may be over the fact that Ukrainians are largely white and Christian, which is kind of a change-up for us. Or is it the sight of soft, service-dodging bootlickers packed together like par-baked dinner rolls to scold a democratically elected Ukrainian president about etiquette while he’s three years into trying to defend a sovereign nation and its people from a massive invading aggressor?

Try looking at some AI images of Trump with crazy abs. That’s better. I know we are against the drag shows so should we say something about Vice President Vance’s guyliner? Every Trump sta er is expected to mind their appearance and take care to a rm their gender in a way that is definitely not gender-a rming care. You know, hair dye, makeup, shapewear. That goes for women, too. And J.D. has chosen to go with what appears to be a Sharpie line from his tear ducts and back, which is manly and virile and definitely not in the style of rock icon Joan Jett.

That Musk guy is creeping me out. He creeps us all out. He’s like if a rubber Michael Myers Halloween mask came to life with less convincing hair plugs. Is it weird that someone who would have been a villain in a Lethal Weapon movie is now an unelected minister with all your passwords? Sure. But our semi-lucid president has chosen him to be in charge of the treehouse. Try looking at his hat instead of at his dull, flounder-like eyes.

Are we still doing “family values?” Absolutely. As long as you count Musk’s personal eugenics project, impregnating women he finds genetically superior. And be honest, you were fine with the porn star stu and the sexual assault last time around. Next.

I knew when I voted for Trump that people would be harmed. But I thought it would be di erent people. It’s true Trump and Musk have stripped the Centers for Disease Control and Forest Service

of thousands of workers, including a surprising number of white men. We realize some of the messaging may have given the impression that those booted into unemployment would be non-European immigrants who run drag story hours or transgender people teaching critical race theory to babies. But we’ll get to them eventually, whether they exist or not. Do DEI programs really include veterans and white ladies? Potentially, and by that we mean yes. But a fair meritocracy based on inherited wealth requires sacrifice. And while it may seem like the administration is simultaneously advancing and appointing people you wouldn’t trust to adopt a Build-a-Bear, it’s because we don’t want to alienate our younger base — specifically mothers willing to treat measles with lavender and dudes who hu Axe body spray. The latter group is why we support the Tate brothers’ return to the U.S., despite their facing more sexual assault allegations than all trans women in ladies’ rooms. It’s our way of ensuring the party is diversified, treating anti-vaxxers and violent misogynists equally and

including them. But definitely not in a DEI way. We need to plan for when the old guard dies o , which should be soon given Kennedy’s public health policies.

The Trump tari s and the related fallout in the stock market are freaking me out. Listen, you wanted a government run like a business. You should have specified you didn’t want one like Enron or Fyre Fest.

Are we still for smaller government? The smaller the better. Think of how small it could be without Social Security and how much government overreach and interference we’ll cut out as soon as we’re done inspecting everyone’s genitals. In essence, we’re whittling it down to just the executive branch. What’s smaller than a monarchy? No more House or Senate, just one golden, jewel-encrusted throne.

What a World

By Collin Yeo music@northcoastjournal.com

Ihave a lot on my mind and no space to get to any of it with the proper clarity due, so I will instead drop a snapshot. First o , the title of this week’s column comes from my favorite Bill Frisell album Ghost Town, which I am listening to as I’m clacking at the keys. I have also found a great bird watching spot, a place where I can observe a Northern Harrier work its terrifying magic on the local critters without my presence disrupting its hovering swoops. I have also discovered, in the same neighborhood, a Bald Eagle larger than any I have previously seen south of British Columbia. This is a big deal for me, a guy whose life can be measured by watching these glorious monsters do their thing until the sky reminds me of other obligations. I work to live, not the other way around, and living for me has a great deal of moments where I often try to be the stillest animal in the landscape. Finally, I rewatched — with a dear one — The Straight Story, directed by David Lynch, based on a true story about a man using some tractors to visit his stroke-stricken brother, and often considered his most wholesome and least Lynchian film. Wrong. It is pure Lynch, beautifully acted, shot and directed, and bookended by the vastness of space, one of his constant central themes. The shots are like midwestern paintings, and at the very end Richard Farnsworth and Harry Dean Stanton act with their eyes in a way that is a dying art. Pure humanity. May we all get some doses of that again and again. And again.

Thursday

The Logger Bar is at it again with a limited run of live theater, this particular stretch going from Tuesday to Sunday. Tonight’s show will be, like every other performance other than the ultimate one on Sunday, at 6 p.m., and will last about an hour. There is limited seating, and tickets cost $23. Oh, and the play is called Logger Legends, Liars and Lookers, so I’d expect a series of vignettes about the various barstool warmers and shitkickers who darkened the doors of this beer hall, gin joint and pressure reliever over its many

decades of operation.

Friday

Making good on my promise to keep promoting the shows at the Siren’s Song Tavern as long as the doors remain open and the taps are running, here’s an all-ages, 8 p.m. gig that will satisfy anyone looking for something with a bit of mental in the experimental, and plenty of brilliant electronic and organic psychonaut adventures. Two duos of note in that sweet spot arena of krautrock, psyche and jazz tones will be sharing the stage, with Shiny Eyes headlining and Elegant Humanoid holding pole position. I have seen and enjoyed both of these acts in a variety of places, and can vouch for them without reservation. Speaking of reservations, don’t worry about that or even a door price, as this gig is as free as the night sky.

Saturday

in the way of magic when it comes to bringing a unique light to a fairly clustered genre of starlight beams and lasers. You can catch ’em tonight at Humbrews at 8:30 p.m., where $25 will get you stageside, $5 less if you buy in advance.

Monday

If you missed last night’s sonic orgasmatron at the Eagle House, fear not, for the second evening is afoot tonight at 9 p.m. I’m talking about the return of long-revered — around here — retro, electro, hillstomp act Beats Antique, whose sound harkens back to a more innocent time when a certain quasi-illegal economy held up a rather vibrant music scene for the locals and seasonal world visitors to enjoy alike. Also on the bill are DJs Blancatron, Zero One and Dragonfly to keep the vibes rolling throughout the double-night a air. If you are only interested in one of these shows, then tickets will run you $40 at the door, $35 in advance and $50 for a VIP experience. If you feel like doubling your pleasure, you can catch both nights for $50 or a double-night VIP for $80. Enjoy.

Sunday

Asheville, North Carolina’s Toubab Krewe have been riding the rails of the instrumental jam scene for two decades, propelled by a unique mix of fusion, African rhythms and good ol’ improvisational jam rock. A favorite in the college and festival scene, these fellas have something

I don’t have any children and by the time you are reading this, I will have carved another notch into my early 40s. Age, my general temperament and economic status puts the likelihood of o spring ever lower on the actuary board. Which is fine; I’m at least one special niece’s favorite uncle and a fairly decent cat dad, which works fine with my disposition. That being said, I’m going to drift into some unknown territory here and recommend a gig that’s strictly for the kiddos and their patient parents. Apparently, there’s a very popular series of children’s books illustrated and co-written by a chap named James Dean — not that one, obviously — called Pete the Cat, and the enterprise has turned into a minor industry including live musical storytelling, as far as I can tell. Anyway, a certified production of said material will be rolling through the Arkley Center for the Performing Arts today at 6 p.m. Tickets are $23 for kids 16 and under (although I can’t imagine too many surly teenagers will be in a froth to fill the seats) and $32 for the adults and parental units chaperoning the younger set. Enjoy.

Tuesday

The Tiptons Saxophone Quartet — and drums — are an interesting group, as are most of the musical caravans who drift through the oasis of the Arcata Playhouse.

Named in homage to the late, pioneering, transgender saxophonist Billy Tipton, this all-female sax quartet — again, with drums added — has a wide range of styles at their flesh-to-metal fingertips, spanning the language of world music and jazz, from big-band standards to modern free improvisational spirals. From the roots to the sky, this stu hits. And 7 p.m. on a Tuesday night isn’t much of an ask, nor is the $20 entrance fee.

Wednesday

OK, I’ll admit it; as much as I enjoy reporting on sci-fi night at the Arcata Theatre Lounge, tonight’s o ering has actually “stumped the band.” Meaning that, despite my general knowledge of all things B-movie, cult and otherwise, I haven’t seen Forbidden World, which is pretty rare for an R-rated space flick that came out in the year I was born. I did, however, watch the trailer, which suggests an exploitation flick trying to ride the coattails of Alien a few years too late, and with pacing and subtlety traded in for flesh and gore. However, I am nothing if not a complete sucker for practical e ects and this one appears to have the goods. I can’t quite endorse it but I will say that it looks like an ugly good time. Same deal as usual: Get your seats between 6 p.m. and 7 p.m., and cough up $6, or $10 for the added pleasure of a poster.

Collin Yeo (he/him) is a dangerous radical because he believes people deserve the chance to live in dignity and peace. He will continue to state this position after it becomes illegal to do so, come what may.

September 5 Goes Live

By John J. Bennett screens@northcoastjournal.com

SEPTEMBER 5. Being of a certain age and something of a masochist, trigger warnings aren’t really my thing. Times being what they are, though, it only seems appropriate in this case to preface these remarks with the disclaimer that September 5 centers its narrative on one of the more broadly visible events in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This is not the forum to attempt to parse the vagaries of that conflict, nor am I the person to publicly undertake such an investigation, so I do not intend to do anything of the sort. This is, ultimately, a movie column, and while I understand that to attempt to isolate it from global events would be folly (and more than a little disingenuous), the movie in question is a rich enough text, and gets at something even more immediately topical and universally resonant than the conflict in Gaza, that can be explored and unpacked without drawing lines or pointing fingers. Maybe that’s a cop-out; we shall see.

The 1972 Munich Olympic Games were heralded — not least of all by the government of the host nation — as a great, serene, international coming together, “the cheerful games,” with the not-soveiled imperative that the world forget (or at least forgive) the fact that Germany had last hosted the Olympics in 1936, with Europe on the precipice of an unprecedented war. The ostensible and heavily promoted tranquility of the event was ruptured, of course, when 11 Israeli athletes and coaches were taken hostage in their quarters in the early hours of September 5. Clearly, this is the inciting incident around which the movie in question is constructed. But the fascinating, deceptively innovative and insightful aspect of its approach is in retelling the story of that day from the perspective of the ABC Sports broadcasting team, who were the only representatives of a news organ with the ability to report on the events in real-time.

To step back yet again, September 5 is an object of fascination to me in part because the mid-20th century was a period not only of seismic socio-political tumult but of rapid and palpable technological advancement. As the opening frames of the movie intone, the 1972 games were to be covered with previously

impossible totality, with roving cameras and a round-the-clock satellite feed to be shared among the American television networks. Every athlete apartment even had a color television capable of receiving broadcasts from nearly all the participating countries (a luxury with unforeseen consequences, as it would turn out). The ability to document and share the games with the world represented a pinnacle of information technology but, as the film pointedly reminds us, that technology was still extremely tactile, collaborative and controlled by instant-to-instant human decision-making.

And so, as the pre-dawn hostage-taking reshapes the narrative of the days to come, the nerve center of ABC crackles with the imperative to pivot and re-tool their operation, at the head of which sits Roone Arledge (Peter Sarsgaard), the appropriately cynical, market minded head of the sports division. Directly under him, running the control room with nearly no preamble or preparation, is director Geoffrey Mason (John Magaro), working most closely with Marvin Bader (Ben Chaplin) and Marianne Gebhardt (Leonie Benesch), a newly hired and astoundingly resourceful German translator.

Leveraging the network’s access to the satellite and fortuitously embedded combat journalist Peter Jennings (Benjamin Walker), the team reorganizes itself as a documentary film crew, using every resource and tactic available to broadcast the events of the day to a recently available world (a pre-credits title card informs that 900 million people watched the broadcast).

September 5, written by Moritz Binder, Tim Fehlbaum and Alex David, and directed by Fehlbaum, progresses with the breathlessness of the best action thrillers, presents a seemingly flawless re-creation of its time and place and is defined by performances from its leads and supporting cast that rival anything from the prestige camp (can’t ignore awards season altogether). Within a surprisingly concise runtime, the movie somehow maintains a remarkable balance of tension, tautness and narrative depth. And, most fascinatingly, it casts an unjaundiced eye on the

NEW INDOOR FLOWERZ

30 Minutes that Made All the Di erence

By Barry Evans fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com

Tsocial and ethical implications of the birth of new media, drawing chillingly direct parallels to our current moment by examining the weight not only of moment-to-moment decision making but of countries and cultures attempting to manipulate narratives in pursuit of what we might now call optimized optics.

In allowing the ethical ambiguity of the moment to linger on screen but without casting judgment, September 5 speaks to a time of transition, of the mass commodification of information and the burgeoning crisis it might create, with a clarity, subtlety and unsparingness that seem to have largely fallen out of favor. And, in so doing, it casts a disproportionate shadow. R. 95M. STREAMING.

hirty minutes. That’s all it took, 66 million years ago, to put the future on track for you to be reading this. Had the Manhattan-Island-size asteroid that crashed into the Gulf of Mexico arrived 30 minutes earlier or later, we wouldn’t be around to unravel the consequences of that mighty collision. We know very little about that huge rock, other than it was rich in the element iridium. This was the telltale clue which established that the catastrophe visited upon our planet eons ago was caused by something from space, not from home-grown volcanoes as had been thought prior to about 50 years ago.

Starting in the late 1970s, a father-andson team, physicist Luis and geologist Walter Alvarez, pioneered studies that gave us the “asteroid impact” theory. Together with a team of researchers, they found iridium in concentrations hundreds of times greater than normal in thin layers of 66-million-year-old sedimentary rock, first in Italy, then in numerous sites worldwide. Iridium is rare on Earth but common in asteroids, so they speculated that the iridium they were finding originated in a massive extraterrestrial object. Around the same time the Alvarez team was publishing their theory, a Pemex (Mexican petroleum) geologist identified a huge crater — 120 miles in diameter and 6/10 of a mile deep—in the sea north of Chicxulub pueblo in Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula. Many other lines of evidence have since led the majority of geologists to accept the impact scenario.

The theory in a nutshell: A 6-mile-wide asteroid collided with our planet with a velocity of 12 miles per second 66 million years ago, at what geologists call the Cretaceous–Paleogene (K-Pg, formerly K-T) boundary. The immediate result was to send vast clouds of vaporized rock high into the atmosphere, followed by plumes of acidic gases and dust, which together blocked out the sun for perhaps 20 years worldwide. Photosynthesis ceased, plants died, followed by herbivores and, at the top of the food chain, carnivores. In just a

The half-inch thick white claystone layer marks the boundary between the Cretaceous and Tertiary periods. It contains thousands of times more iridium than the layers above and below. This 66-million-year-old rock is from Wyoming.

few years, over 75 percent of all species, terrestrial and marine, became extinct, including all non-avian dinosaurs.

On land, mammals, which until then had co-existed with predatory dinosaurs by staying small and (often) nocturnal, emerged into a land of opportunity where, in the absence of predators, they flourished and multiplied. The secret to their survival was their size (small animals need less food, and reproduce faster than larger ones), their fur (to make it through those cold, sunless years) and the fact that many were burrowing, living out those desperate times underground. Most species perished, so it wasn’t that wonderful for mammals, but enough survived to evolve — eventually — into the likes of you and me.

Here’s the kicker: That asteroid had been traveling through space for a long, long time — perhaps a million or more years. We have no way of knowing. Yet it hit Earth, with the energy a billion times that of the Hiroshima atomic bomb, at just the right place (from our point of view) to do the maximum damage. That is, the impact point happened to be one of the few places on Earth with an abundance of hydrocarbons and sulfur compounds, just the right stu to result in enormous quantities of sunlight-reflecting aerosols that made for a decades-long global winter. At the latitude of the Chicxulub crater, Earth rotates at about 1,000 mph. Had the asteroid hit half an hour earlier, it would have made landfall 500 miles east, in the Atlantic; half an hour later, 500 miles west, in the Pacific. Either way, the resulting quantities of dust and aerosols would have been much, much less: Dinosaurs might well have made it through while mammals would have remained small and inconspicuous.

What a di erence 30 minutes made!
