Crescent City, CA

Fire assessment vote heading to recount Knox Keranen The Triplicate

After initially failing, one vote could flip results

After an initial miscount, a vote to increase funding to the Crescent City Fire Protection District through resident property taxes may have actually passed by an incredi-

bly slim margin. When the count finished Tuesday, unofficial results pointed to a failed benefit assessment by less than one vote — 49.99 to 50.01%. This was possible because of weighted ballots, which gave voters with greater property value more say. However, a mistake was discovered the following day when County Recorder Alissia Northrup and other election staff con-

ducted an informal recount by hand. A “yes” ballot had been accidentally placed in the “no” pile. Northrup said the elections office did not “find” an extra ballot, rather it was simply a sorting error. The single “yes” ballot would flip the overall result to a passed benefit assessment. After learning of the miscount, the CCFPD board of directors ordered an official recount, during an

emergency meeting Thursday. At the meeting, Director James Nelson warned a recount could mean the discovery of other errors or bad ballots, and the vote could not pass anyway. A recount was scheduled for later in the month. If approved, the benefit assessment would generate more than $420,000 per year for the fire department. The department

currently collects $42 per residence in the district, however, with a 2006 assessment ending this year, that number would have dropped to $24. The proposed assessment would increase cost per residence to $98, according to a CCFPD report. Northrup said the margin of this vote is unprecedented. “I’ve never had a race this close,” she said.

Rower sets off on nine-month journey Knox Keranen The Triplicate

As dusk set in over the Crescent City harbor Tuesday, Erden Eruc, 59-year-old Turkish-American explorer and leading ocean rower, began his roughly 7,000 mile row across the Pacific Ocean. If all goes according to plan,

Eruc will reach Hong Kong shores by March of 2022. He already holds 15 Guinness World Records, including being the first person to row across three oceans and most career days at sea for a solo rower at 844 days. Eruc is also the first person to circumnavigate the globe by human power, a five-year mission he completed in 2012.

During his first row across the Pacific in 2007 — yes, he’s done this before — Eruc had to pause his journey for five months due to a swelling monsoons in the South China Sea. This time, Eruc is determined to complete the row without pause. “I won’t stop unless I have to. The idea is to do it non-stop, unassisted,” said Eruc.

Before setting off, Eruc explained the ins and outs of his 24-foot, yellow rowing vessel, the “Around-nOver” to a small group of fans who came to view the launch. On board, a handy gadget called a desalinator will turn salty ocean water into fresh drinking water, and plenty of lightweight, freeze dried Please see ROWER, Page A9

Can the ocean adapt to rising temperatures? By DAVID RUPKALVIS The Triplicate

Rising temperatures, possibly from mancaused climate change, are putting ocean life at risk. Maybe. During a presentation Thursday to celebrate the 50th year of Oregon Shores, Steve Palumbi, a biologist and author, said studies have shown some ocean animals have the ability to evolve and adapt to the changes in the water. Palumbi, who also works as a professor at Stanford University, was invited to talk about the Extreme Life of the Sea, which is also the title of a book he and his son wrote. “I’ve spent a lot of time on the Oregon coast,” he said. “It’s a fabulously beautiful place.” Palumbi started off by talking about the extreme life in the ocean. For example, some rockfish can live to be 120 years old. And some fish can “fly.” “Fish and marine life are amazing creatures,” Palumbi said. “Flying fish are only fast out of the water, and they don’t actually fly, they glide.” Palumbi said the fish evolved to fly as a means of survival because that is their only way to escape faster hunters. “What are really the fastest fish?” Palumbi asked. “We eventually come down to the billfish. Swordfish and marlins are the fastest fish in the ocean. They can get up to 40 miles Please see OCEAN, Page A9

As ocean temperatures rise, sea life, especially close to shores, is threatened by rising water temperatures and ocean acidification. Sea stars already have low numbers due to a sickness that spread through the coast in recent years.

With a goal of reducing homelessness, a new program through the Crescent City Housing Authority and NorCal Continuum of Care will hand out 15 emergency housing vouchers to at-risk individuals in the county. Megan Miller, housing director, outlined the program in a presentation to city council Monday. Miller said individuals who are experiencing homelessness, at-risk of homelessness, fleeing domestic violence or experiencing housing instability can qualify for the vouchers, which are being funded through COVID-19 relief money as a part of the American Rescue Plan. Qualifying individuals will be identified by Del Norte Mission Possible or Department of Health and Human Services using the Homeless Management Information System, which is used to track at-risk individuals and connect them to services. Once they are identified, those individuals will be ranked on a scale of vulnerability, with the most vulnerable being awarded the vouchers. Miller said one of the greatest challenges of using housing vouchers is convincing landlords to accept them. However, in an effort to incentivize landlords to accept voucher participants, each voucher will come with an additional $3,500, which participants can use toward security deposits, landlord incentive payments or to furnish household goods. Miller said the extra money could dramatically increase a participant’s chances of finding housing. “Security deposits have always been a hurdle for our participants. It’s a lot of money to come up with, and we have never had the ability previously to assist with that,” said Miller. According to a 2019 point-intime count, there are roughly 190 homeless individuals in Del Norte County. Point-in-time counts are completed once per year, usually in January. As this is a new program, Miller said they are expecting to run into other hurdles along the way. “We are all going into this with our eyes wide open, we know it’s not going to be easy,” Miller said. Nevertheless, all members of the city council were in favor of the program and approved it to begin. Mayor Pro Tem Blake Inscore said he was especially excited because six women currently living at the Harrington House — interim housing for victims of domestic violence — could qualify for permanent housing through this program, which would in turn free up space for more women to occupy the shelter. “We have some graduates who are ready to rebuild their life on their own, so this is amazing,” said Inscore. Mayor Jason Greenough echoed Inscore’s excitement. “It would be nice if we did not need these, but we do have needs in our community, and what an exciting opportunity this is,” said Greenough.

favorite songs being “On Top of Old Smokey” and “The Wild Side of Life.” She enjoyed dancing, fishing, playing all kinds of games, with Hopscotch and Redrover being her childhood favorites. She will be remembered for playing Yahtzee for hours on end with family and friends. She loved going to the movies too. Daily she spent time reading her Bible and loved going to church where she reveled in singing the Gospel. Nancy had a wonderful sense of humor and we will miss her laughter, hugs and love. Our family reunions will never be the same without our beloved mom, Granny and GG. The family will have private services at the Canyon City Cemetery on July 10th at 2:00 pm.

Zoo wakes up 500 caterpillar for trip to the coast

The solution to the Sudoku puzzle can be found on Page A7 The solution to the Crossword can be found on Page A7

It’s Pollinator Week, and at the Oregon Zoo’s butterfly conservation lab, naptime is over for hundreds of the zoo’s tiniest residents. Zoo conservationists are rousing more than 500 Oregon silverspot larvae from their winter dormancy this month, transferring the very hungry caterpillars into protective containers, where they are currently munching on fresh leaves following a 7-month snooze. “We’ve had a 98% survival rate of caterpillars coming out of diapause this year, which is the best we’ve ever seen,” said Travis Koons, who oversees the zoo’s butterfly recovery efforts. “It’s a testament to rigorous protocols and painstaking attention of our care staff.” Over the coming months, zoo staffers will join biologists from the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to release the silverspots at sites along the Oregon coastal range, helping to stabilize declining populations of this threatened species. The zoo-reared caterpillars will complete their development in the wild, first turning into chrysalides and then — over a span of warm, sunny days — emerging as adult butterflies and unfurling their distinctive and colorful wings. “The Oregon silverspot is one of our region’s most beautiful, and most imperiled, butterflies,” Koons said. “If it weren’t for this collaborative recovery effort, three of the five remaining populations would likely be extinct today.” Once common in coastal grasslands from Northern California up into British Columbia, the Oregon silverspot is listed as threatened under the federal Endangered Species Act. Just five isolated populations remain: four in Oregon and one in California. Release sites for the silverspots are chosen based on the presence of a rare flower: the early blue violet, which is the main food source for the caterpillars as they mature into adult butterflies. The Oregon coastal range is one of the few remaining areas where early blue violets grow in large enough quantities to sustain a butterfly population. At the zoo conservation lab, the ever-munching caterpillars are fed early blue violet leaves harvested by inmates at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility as part of a collaboration with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Institute for Applied Ecology.

Funding for the zoo’s butterfly conservation lab is provided by the USFWS Cooperative Endangered Species Conservation Fund. Additional support comes from the Oregon Zoo Foundation’s $8.5 million Heart of the Oregon Zoo campaign, which is currently raising funds to support the zoo’s efforts in advancing animal welfare, conservation and education.

Letters to the Editor

Looking back to when water was plentiful By Dave Marston During his 50 years in rural western Colorado, Jamie Jacobson has seen a lot of flooding. While caretaking a farm in 1974, Jacobson watched three acres of its riverfront float away. More recently, it’s been drought, and then worse drought. Jacobson farms on Lamborn Mesa, perched above Paonia, population 1,500. He keeps his orchard of peaches, nectarines and cherries alive thanks to the Minnesota Canal that serves 170 customers. The ditch is nine miles long and carries water from the snowpack that’s accumulated around 12,725-foot-high Mt. Gunnison. This mountain of many ridges used to hold water like a sponge, but snowfall has been light year after year, and the ground sucks up a lot of the melting snow. “Back in the 1970s it was different,” says Jacobson, who moved from New York where he started his career as a cameraman on film shoots. “Paonia was snow-covered in winter, and when the melt came, the river tore at its banks. One of my first jobs was using machinery to stuff boulders into junked cars and then cabling them to the riverbank. Now it’s scary because of water that isn’t there.” This summer, Jacobson’s ditch rider told him irrigation water would run out by the end of June. “That would have been unthinkable decades ago,” Jacobson says. But the canal’s two reservoirs have filled only one year out of the last four. “In the old days, daily highs in summers were in the 80s,” Jacobson says. “Last May it got really warm, and in June this year the temperature is hitting 100 degrees.” So it’s not surprising that his orchard is suffering. “My trees are stressed, and some I’ve had to let go. I’ve lost a great deal,” he says flatly. But Jacobson, 75, remains resilient and upbeat, though he was diagnosed with arthritis at age 10 and has suffered from back pain all his life. He even underwent a kidney transplant from a friend three years ago. Now getting around in a wheelchair, he still hopes to fly in his ultralight - equipped with a parachute. During the 1970s, he enjoyed a moment of fame when he turned 20,000 gallons of spoiled apple cider into alcohol that substituted for gasoline. “Coal company execs visiting their mines around Paonia all wanted to try out my alcohol-fueled car,” he recalls. “We had some great joyrides on moonshine.” Jacobson’s ditch company was founded in 1893 by farmers and ranchers who knew they had to import water to make the semi-desert land valuable. “They dug those ditches with hand labor and mule scrapers and built the canals incrementally,” says Western historian George Sibley. “You either bought in with money or sweat equity, enlarging the canals as neighbors down the ditch bought in.” It’s a similar story throughout the Western states, moving water from mountains through a system of prior appropriation – first to put water to

DEAR ABBY

work, first to claim it. For example, Southern Idaho, in the grip of extreme drought, is braced for prior appropriation cutbacks. Junior water users in the Wood River Valley who pump water from wells have been notified that their water might be shut off early this summer. Meanwhile New Mexico’s ancient system utilizes a water master or mayordomo to administer cutbacks. And if one state knows drought, it’s Nevada, where Las Vegas sends most of its sewage-treated water back to where it came from – Lake Mead. The water flowing through piped canals or open ditches into Paonia and its mesas was never meant to stick around. Farmers who flood-irrigate use roughly 20 percent of the water on their land. Eventually, that water may be reused by farmers and homeowners as much as seven times before crossing into Utah as part of the Colorado River. These days, a lot less water ever gets there. The river’s two big reservoirs, Lake Powell and Lake Mead, are only about 35 percent full, and river managers in the seven states that rely on the Colorado are trying to figure out how to cope. It’s a daunting prospect, squeezing out water in the midst of a drying climate. Meanwhile, Jacobson looks at his diminished orchard and hopes he’ll have enough fruit for the people who came last summer. They brought their own baskets and wandered the orchard to pick what they wanted. “People had a good time, and at $1.50 per pound we sold out the crop last year,” Jacobson says. “If we go down this year, we’ll do it in style.” Dave Marston is the publisher of Writers on the Range, writersontherange.org, an independent nonprofit dedicated to spurring lively conversation about the West. He owns land with shares in Minnesota Canal.

go so far off track, let her know you are willing to work on your “messiness,” and ask her to lay her cards on the table about what else may be bothering her. DEAR ABBY: My wife and I have a beautiful 8-year-old daughter. She was a donor egg baby, as we had had three miscarriages and were unable to bring a baby to term. My question is, when is the right time to tell our daughter that her mother is not her birth mother? I was bullied extensively as a kid, and don’t want this to become a topic to haunt the rest of her school days. -- DOTING DAD DEAR DAD: I’m sorry you were bullied as a child, and I’m glad you asked this question. If your wife carried your daughter to term, she IS the child’s birthmother. She just needed a little “extra help” in the form of a donated egg. Having reached the age of 8, your daughter is at an age when school curriculum may begin covering reproduction. After she has learned the basics, consider slowly starting to educate her about the various pathways to parenthood. Then, when she is a little older, provide more details about the miracle of her birth. It is important that your child know she can always get honest answers from both of her parents, and at some point, the donor’s medical history may be something she needs to know about. ----------------------------------------------------Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

proceedings are suspect. In other words, the entire process is suspect, particularly in light of the fact that after the count, and after the public was dismissed, we are told that a vote was found that was incorrectly placed in the no votes that was actually a yes vote, that could change the election results. We find this highly suspicious, that a vote is discovered when no one was present from the public to witness this. We want to preserve and protect the chain of custody of the ballots and remove them from any of the involved parties and have them placed with an independent third party until they can be properly audited publicly, and by the public.

It’s too early to declare victory over COVID By Charles Hubris Looking around, it’s clear people are desperate to put this chapter in history behind us, to enjoy life and interact as they once did. You cannot overestimate the value of in-person human connection. COVID has deprived us of this. We are now 15 months into this pandemic, and although much progress has been made, there are still many uncertainties out there. Is it still too early to declare victory? Perhaps, but we’re finally close. One day soon, I’d like to write my last COVID column and get back to otolaryngology. Here’s where we are in this process: The Good: 1) The speed with which we’ve developed a vaccination program (one year vs. 70 years for polio, 200 for smallpox). 2) Over 70% of Americans have already had at least one shot, and 3) The success of the vaccines, which on the average impart a 95% immunity against the original virus. The Bad: 1) The fact that close to 30% of the U.S. still hasn’t been vaccinated (or 120 million people) and 2) 75% of the planet still hasn’t been vaccinated. This creates a scenario where viral mutation can and will still occur. This led to the Delta (or B.1.617) variant, which has quickly become the predominant strain across India and has spread to about 40 nations, including the United Kingdom, Fiji, Singapore and now very much in the U.S. Delta has been shown to be 40% more transmissible out of doors, 64% more transmissible within the household and causes a more severe course of illness. It has also been shown to be evasive of the vaccine with available vaccines only 70% effective against Delta. For those who’ve only received one dose, that drops to 30%. The Ugly: Increased transmissibility is an exponential threat. When a virus that could previously infect three people can now infect four, it looks like a small increase. Yet if you start with just two infected people in both scenarios, after 10 rounds of infection, the less transmissible variant would cause only 118,000 new cases whereas the more virulent strain would infect 2.1 million people. If COVID evolves a new super-variant, a variant of high consequences (one that makes Delta look tame) given the large number still unvaccinated, it will be everywhere fast. What makes a new variant succeed is that it outpaces all other strains among the unvaccinated.

From there, it may advance to infect those who’ve had the disease before. What we fear most though is that it will have the capacity to easily infect people who’ve already been fully vaccinated, that the current vaccines will become obsolete. In this scenario, the potential for another frighteningly large wave still exists. It’s now painfully obvious that COVID is not just another run-of-the-mill flu. Now deeply into the pandemic. the many potential late term sequelae are clear. The following is a list of conditions known to be caused by or exacerbated by a COVID infection. The conditions are more likely associated with those who suffered a severe form of the illness with hospitalization. But they’ve also been shown to manifest following milder illness, or even those who had asymptomatic forms of the disease. The multisystem sequelae are substantial, and include: myopathies, respiratory failure, pneumothorax, pulmonary embolus, coagulation and hemorrhagic disorders, cardiac arrest, ventricular fibrillation, acute myocardial infarction, hypertension, diabetes, lipid disorders, obesity, acute renal failure, and chronic kidney disease. Correspondingly, other medical changes included new onset chest pain, laboratory blood work abnormalities and the need for additional daily prescriptions such as bronchodilators. Risk of death by any cause is also higher. What defense do we have against essentially starting over with an all new strain? Resistance and containment. Basically, a sweeping, immediate, complete vaccination program coupled with variant identification, contact tracing and rapid isolation of any unique outbreaks. It’s quite clear the threat of COVID is not over. Yet, parts of the world are opening up completely with many areas no longer requiring masks or social separation. Governor Andrew M. Cuomo of New York just this past week dropped all restrictions meaning that restaurants will no longer be forced to space tables six feet apart, movie theaters will be allowed to pack their auditoriums and entering commercial buildings won’t require screening questions or a temperature check. Planes and venues will get packed to the gills. All caution is being tossed to the wind. With the degree of uncertainty that still exists, at this juncture these sweeping changes just seem foolhardy. Political and business interests have pressured the world

to go mad. Luckily, each individual will always have the option of managing the pandemic personally as they see fit. Many will continue to mask and curtail activities (and not unreasonably so) until a time when unmasking is supported by pertinent favorable data. These vaccines are clearly miracles of modern technology and human ingenuity, as was development of the airbag. As amazing a device as the airbag is, we have learned that it is useless without the seatbelt. For the near term at least, as with the seat belt, I still feel more secure with my mask in place. What do leading experts think about policies of early relaxation? Here are a few of many similar opinions: Virologist, Juliet Morrison, “I think it was unwise for the C.D.C. to lift the mask mandate for vaccinated people so early in the vaccination campaign.” Airborne transmission expert, Linsey Marr, “I was surprised, too, by the C.D.C.’s latest guidance on masks for vaccinated people.” If infectious disease experts still feel that masking is a good idea, it’s probably a pretty good idea. Let’s finish full circle back in the “good” category. Plans are being made, not just to end this pandemic, but to prepare for the next one. One thing that is missing in the fight against COVID is an effective anti-viral drug. It was once thought that antiviral “antibiotics” would never be possible. But, in the last few decades effective drugs have been produced against the Herpes virus and in the fight against AIDS. Antivirals have transformed HIV from a death sentence into a manageable disease. The Biden administration announced last week a $3.2 billion plan to stock everyone’s medicine cabinet with drugs that would be ready to treat future viral threats, whether influenza or another coronavirus. If such drugs can be developed, they would be game changers. The history of previous pandemics is instructive: In the case of the 1918 flu, the world didn’t have a vaccine. Nor did humans ever develop so-called natural herd immunity. In fact, herd immunity has never been achieved for any disease. Rather, as more and more people became immune to the 1918 virus through infection, it evolved, leading to milder versions that still circulate even today. The truth of the matter is, pandemics always end, as will this one. Be patient just a little bit longer and stay safe. This is almost over.

Does love abound? This week I saw a sticker on a beautiful red KIA Town Car, which read, “love abounds.” It occurred to me that is the opposite message from the Socialist/Marxist regime which currently prevails in our country, which is hate abounds. Their “gain of function” kind of social experiment is to manipulate social to stir hatred among us. It’s not too big a reach to compare the way we are being manipulated like lab rats to the way the Wuhan virus was manipulated in the lab to make the virus infect humans.

MAN’S MESSINESS TOUCHES NERVE IN BUDDING ROMANCE DEAR ABBY: I’ve become involved with a woman I’ve been friends with for some years. We became close over the course of 2020, and more recently have soft-launched dating (although she doesn’t yet feel comfortable labeling it). Not long ago, she expressed great disappointment because of my messiness when I last visited her. I had left an empty coffee cup on her car floor, my shoes in the middle of her kitchen and knocked some pillows off of the couch, among other things. I know her criticisms are fair, but they were also over the top. I believe this is a trait I can fix, and I told her I would, but now she wants some space. She said she isn’t sure she can become romantic with a messy person who “doesn’t respect her space.” While I understand where she’s coming from, I’m afraid I won’t have a chance to prove myself. We spoke a little after the incident, but I have tried to honor her request. Do you have any advice about how to approach the situation? It would be sad if we parted ways after our first real challenge. I think it may be important to note that, in the past, she has dated men who weren’t respectful to her at all. -- MR. MESSY IN PENNSYLVANIA DEAR MR. MESSY: A serious -- but nonconfrontational -- conversation with this woman is in order. Does she have a touch of OCD? Or could she be reluctant to become further involved for some other reason -- such as a fear of intimacy or her bad luck with prior men in her life? You need to ask what has caused your otherwise happy relationship to

Save the ballots This request was to the county regarding the recent fire assessment (additional tax) vote that was initially declared not passing for a second time, and then a magic ballot was found after the public had left. This is their second attempt in less than a year on the same issue, and now they have found a magic ballot. We request that the all ballots received which are subject to a recount and an audit be held by a neutral third party who was not associated with collecting, counting or handling the ballots in any way - like the grand jury. The reason for this request is simple. The vote is suspect, the counting is suspect, the chain of custody is suspect, the legality of the vote and

CITY, CA 95531 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the street address and other common designation, if any, shown herein. Said sale will be made in an “AS IS” condition, but without covenant or warranty, expressed or implied, regarding title, possession, or encumbrances, to pay the remaining principal sum of the note(s) secured by said Deed of Trust, with interest thereon, as provided in said note(s), advances, if any, under the terms of the Deed of Trust, estimated fees, charges and expenses of the Trustee and of the trusts created by said Deed of Trust, to-wit: $111,695.44 (Estimated). Accrued interest and additional advances, if any, will increase this figure prior to sale. It is possible that at the time of sale the opening bid may be less than the total indebtedness due. NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should understand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 916- 939-0772 or visit this internet website, www.nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case T.S.# 9462-5031. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the internet website. The best way to

verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. NOTICE TO TENANT: You may have a right to purchase this property after the trustee auction pursuant to Section 2924m of the California Civil Code. If you are an “eligible tenant buyer,” you can purchase the property if you match the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. If you are an “eligible bidder,” you may be able to purchase the property if you exceed the last and highest bid placed at the trustee auction. There are three steps to exercising this right of purchase. First, 48 hours after the date of the trustee sale, you can call 916-939-0772, or visit this internet website www. nationwideposting.com, using the file number assigned to this case T.S.# 9462-5031 to find the date on which the trustee’s sale was held, the amount of the last and highest bid, and the address of the trustee. Second, you must send a written notice of intent to place a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 15 days after the trustee’s sale. Third, you must submit a bid so that the trustee receives it no more than 45 days after the trustee’s sale. If you think you may qualify as an “eligible tenant buyer” or “eligible bidder,” you should consider contacting an attorney or appropriate real estate professional immediately for advice regarding this potential right to purchase. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclusive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse.

Building a digital defense against elder fraud When a criminal wants to add layers of protection between a victim and himself, he will use a money mule. The money mule is a person who acts as a middle-man either knowingly or unknowingly transferring illegally-acquired money on behalf of or at the direction of another. The mule makes it easier for the criminal to mask his identity, move money out of the U.S., and evade scrutiny by banks. The scam can work a couple different ways. In one variation, a scam artist targets a senior with any one of a thousand frauds. When the victim sends the money, he actually sends it to the money mule who then transfers the funds to the criminal. The victim definitely loses money in this scenario. In another variation, the victim is the money mule. In most cases, seniors targeted in this way don’t know that they are involved in a larger criminal scheme. In this scenario, other victims send the senior citizen funds, which he then transfers to someone he thinks is a love interest or business partner. In this case, the mule himself may or may not lose money. Seniors are particularly vulnerable to money mule scams because they tend to be more trusting; may be lonely or spend a great deal of time alone; or have diminished physical or mental capacity. Here’s how you can protect yourself and family members: • Don’t agree to set up a bank account for someone you don’t know and trust. • Don’t give out your own bank account information or use your own account to transfer money for other people. No legitimate business will ask you to do this. If you have been victimized by an online scam, report your suspicious contacts to the FBI. You can file an online report at the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center at www.ic3.gov.

California, Oregon Coast Guard crews rescue 6 from sailboat Coast Guard crews from McKinleyville, Calif. and North Bend, Oregon, rescued six people from their 79-foot sailboat Saturday, approximately 80 miles west of Crescent City. Coast Guard Sector Humboldt Bay watchstanders received a VHF distress call at 3:45 p.m. from the crew of the sailboat Barlovento reporting the boat was disabled, taking on water and had a person aboard with a head and arm injury in approximately 60 mile-per-hour

per hour. These marlins and billfish are not only swimming at 40 miles per hour, they’re eating and 40 miles per hour.” As the water temperature has risen, going up 1.5 degrees over the last 100 years, one thing that has intrigued marine biologists are animals that can survive in the hottest water. In the ocean, that’s near the hydrothermal vents off the west coast. Palumbi said red tube worms thrive in the hot water, and one specific worm, the Pompei worm, is stunning to scientists. The worm lives at the end of the underwater smoker chimneys, with half its body inside and half outside. One end of the worm is at 176 degrees with the other end at 35 degrees. “The worm lives at iced water to hot tea in the length of its body, which is about an inch,” Palumbi said. “If we are all concerned about the oceans for the next 50 years, we need to think about the extremes.” Palumbi said as the water changes, life in it has four options. It can move, acclimate, adapt or die. Scientists are conducting studies with the idea of seeing if something can be done to avoid the fourth option. “The ocean is a lot warmer than it has been, and that’s affecting organisms in a pretty strong way,” Palumbi said. “But if the worm living at 176 degrees can adapt to it, what are the chances other species can adapt?” He said some fish species have already started moving in response to changing tem-

winds and 20-foot seas. Watchstanders directed the launch of a Coast Guard Air Station Sacramento C-27J Spartan fixed-wing crew to provide air support and a Coast Guard Sector Humboldt Bay MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew. The Dolphin crew arrived on scene and hoisted the injured person from the Barlovento and transported the person to local emergency medical services personnel at Coast Guard Sector Humboldt Bay. With the Barlovento expected to

peratures. He said as water temperatures rise, many fish that live in cold water are moving north to maintain the water temperature they prefer. Canary rockfish, which are currently spread throughout the west coast, are expected to move all the way to the Aleutian Islands by 2080. “Evolution is pretty common and pretty visible in ocean situations,” Palumbi said. As an example, he pointed to pink salmon in Alaska. For years, nets captured the biggest salmon while allowing smaller fish to escape. In response, the salmon began to mature at a smaller size, allowing more and more to survive. Outside of the water, bighorn sheep also evolved as hunters were only shooting the animals with the largest horns. The result is mature males started growing smaller horns, which led to longer lives and more time to breed. Palumbi said he and others have spent a lot of time studying coral bleaching, which many believe is a direct result of rising temperatures. He said some areas of coral appear to be completely dead due to bleaching. “When you look closer, you may see one piece of coral that’s bleached and one right next to it that’s not,” he said. Palumbi said the difference could be a sign that coral is evolving rapidly to survive the changing ocean. Studies on the coral in Palau show some are heat tolerant. “Heat-resistant colonies are pretty widespread,” Palumbi said. “They’re pretty common.” The question for scientists is was the heat resistance due to adaptation or was it genetic? If it was genetic,

lose power, Sector Humboldt Bay watchstanders requested additional air support from a Coast Guard Air Station North Bend MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew. The Sector Humboldt Bay Dolphin crew returned to the scene and hoisted three people from the Barlovento and the Air Station North Bend Dolphin crew arrived on scene and hoisted the remaining two people. All survivors were transported to Sector Humboldt Bay. “This case was a great example

via evolution, it could be a sign that coral could survive. Studies showed coral from heat-tolerant parents were also heat-tolerant, showing it is likely genetic. “Coral can continue to evolve if climate change is not too severe,” Palumbi said. “This model shows coral can continue to evolve and keep up.” Along with rising temperatures, acidification of the ocean is a growing concern. As CO2 levels rise, the ocean absorbs most of it, which turns into carbonic acid. To see how the ocean is adapting, Palumbi and others studies sea urchins under different conditions. “You basically could see evolution happening in these experiments,” Palumbi said. “The sea urchins have the ability to adapt to future CO2 events.” With sea creatures showing the ability to evolve quickly, what role does science play in protecting the ocean? “Can we help?” Palumbi asked. “Can we move heat-resistant corals or kelp or sea urchins to other areas? Show we do that?” That’s the question scientists have not reached a consensus about. While that discussion continues, Palumbi said the challenge is one that must be faced on multiple fronts. “Financial, economic and political arms of society must grapple with climate change to solve it over the next 50 years so that the oceans begin to recover in the next 100 years,” he said. “My job is to find the conditions, find the mechanisms so we can keep everything alive over the next decades.”

of a successful, multi-unit effort and highlights the importance of standardized procedures,” said Lt. Ryan O’Neill, a Dolphin aircraft commander at Sector Humboldt Bay. “The careful coordination between the two helicopters with support from the C-27 allowed us to save all six sailors.” Sector Humboldt Bay watchstanders issued a broadcast to mariners regarding the abandoned Barolvento and requested that mariners transit the area with caution.

System Transport to Haul the 2021 U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree The holiday season will be a little brighter this year with the help of System Transport, as it takes on the role of transporting the U.S. Capitol Christmas Tree to Washington, D.C. An annual gift to the nation, the 2021 tree will make its way to the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol building from the Six Rivers National Forest in California. System Transport was selected as the hauler for this year’s tree at the recommendation of Kenworth Truck Company and based on industry reputation on the West Coast according to Bruce Ward, president of Choose Outdoors, the non-profit partner that assists the USDA Forest Service with coordinating the annual public engagement initiative. The tree will be harvested in late October before making the in-state and cross-country journey, arriving at the U.S. Capitol in late November. The tree will be decorated with thousands of handmade ornaments made by Californians and will light up the nation’s capitol throughout the month of December. The company first opened its doors 1972 with only one truck and trailer. An unwavering commitment to customer service and dedication to their team of professional truck drivers has facilitated their growth to over 1,000 employees and operating more than 800 trucks today. System Transport is headquartered in Spokane, Washington, with terminals in Caldwell, Idaho; French Camp, Fresno and Bloomington, California; Phoenix, Arizona; Denver, Colorado; Olathe, Kansas; Ennis, Texas; and Gary, Indiana. They operate all types of flatbed freight primarily throughout the west coast to the Midwest. The company and staff have been recognized with a series of safety, service and environmental awards, including Goodyear Highway Hero, Great West Safety Award, Carrier of the Year from USG, Platinum Carrier from Lowe’s, Supplier Excellence Award from General Electric, Western Regional Carrier of the Year from Firestone, Carrier of the Year from Home Depot and Excellence Award from SmartWay.

food can sustain Eruc for the estimated 9-month trip. Additionally, a satellite phone and modem will allow him to communicate with the outside world, as well as check weather patterns, and a para-anchor allows Eruc to brace the boat in unnavigable seas. Para-anchors work like an underwater parachute to secure small boats in deep-water. Eruc also discussed the challenges he will face along the way, including potential typhoons, hurricanes and unpredictable currents. He said storms are changing due to climate change, and he’s pragmatic about his chances of running into one. “Storms are happening earlier and extending later in the season. They’re

happening more frequently, and [they’re] stronger. All of those things are working against me,” said Eruc. Along the way, Eruc will give educational presentations to children about the plastic pollution problem in the world’s oceans through a partnership with the Hong Kong nonprofit Ocean Recovery Alliance. Eruc said he has witnessed the plastics problem firsthand during previous ocean rows. Additionally, Eruc will be periodically dragging a hydrophone underneath the boat to gather and record ambient ocean sound, which he will pass along to scientists with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration for research purposes. As if rowing across the world’s largest ocean isn’t hard enough, Eruc doesn’t plan to stop once he gets to Hong Kong. In fact, he plans to travel by foot and bicycle

to the base of Mt. Everest, which he plans to summit in the fall of 2022, as part of his Six Summits Project. The Six Summits Project is Eruc’s goal to summit the tallest mountains on six continents. He has already climbed three of them: Mt. Denali in North America, Mt. Kosciuszko in Australia and Mt. Kilimanjaro in Africa. Eruc began the project after he lost his friend Goran Kropp in a rock climbing accident. He was climbing alongside Kropp when he died. After he launched Tuesday night, the small group of dedicated family, friends and fans looked on from the jetty as Eruc and his yellow boat became just a blip on the horizon, and then disappeared.

Redwood Rides continues to expand A10 | FRIDAY, JUNE 25, 2021

Knox Keranen The Triplicate

When Minnesota transplants Adam Spencer and Alex Kwan first set out eight years ago to start an adventure outfitter geared toward rafting, kayaking and mountain biking in Del Norte, they had their doubts. “It wasn’t an easy commit by any means,” said Kwan. Sharing a love for the outdoors instilled into them from their childhood experiences back East, the Midwesterners jumped in anyway, and Redwood Rides was born. “We used to bike all the time to fishing holes and stuff. We had that connection of doing things together outdoors back home, so all those factors coalesced into us thinking about doing an adventure outfitter,” said Spencer. Initially, their “fleet” was composed of a handful of used inflatable kayaks and mountain bikes, which they stored in a crawlspace under their small-town house along the Smith River. Their business plan was drawn up on the back porch. Now, the fleet has grown to more than 50 boats, 20 mountain bikes, as well as three vans, three trailers and a headquarters in Gasquet. What’s more, a business that began as a back-porch dream has become a full-time gig

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

for co-owners Spencer and Kwan, a former reporter and a former hospitality worker. During peak season they hire about 18 workers, mostly local college kids. Although they offer a plethora of guided kayak and raft tours on all forks of the Smith, Spencer said their most popular is a gentle float through the redwoods of Jedediah Smith State Park, which focuses on ecotourism. Ecotourism is the practice of responsible travel to natural areas, while conserving the environment and the well-being of local people. “There’s only so many places you can float by ancient redwood forest like that,” said Spencer. Recently, Spencer and Kwan have focused on helping local kids get connected with the outdoors. In partnering with local schools like the Gasquet Mountain School, they have taken students on rafting field trips. And, through another partnership with the nonprofit, Gateway Education of the Wild Rivers Coast, they brought local adopted kids on overnight river trips for the first time this spring. In addition, they partnered with Gateway Education again to offer a “summit-tosea” themed overnight youth adventure camp last year. The multi-day trip began

with a summit of Sanger Peak, afterward, the group pitched tents near a mountain lake. Then, the convoy biked along Patrick Creek before dropping into rafts on the Smith and camping out near the river. The following day, they floated by the redwoods and biked through Jedediah Smith into Crescent City, followed by a camp-out by the ocean. The adventure culminated with a full day of surfing and kayaking at the ocean. For many kids, these experiences were a first. “That was good exposure for those kids because for a lot of them, that was the first time either being on the ocean or on a surfboard,” said Kwan. Spencer said Redwood Rides also assisted in the filming of river scenes for the 2018 movie, “Bird Box.” In fact, Spencer said he convinced the filmmakers to shoot all of the river scenes on the Smith, where they had initially planned to travel to other rivers in the region. All in all, Spencer and Kwan said running one of the longest standing adventure outfitters in the redwood region has been surreal. “Some of our hesitancy in those early years...it was kind of like ‘how is nobody else doing this?’ ‘How can we be the ones who get to do this?’” said Spencer.

Torch run raises money, awareness for Special Olympics Knox Keranen The Triplicate

Photos by Knox Keranen

Participants from five different law enforcement agencies contributed to the success of the run.

Local law enforcement officers ran like they were destined for Tokyo during the first annual Law Enforcement Torch Run last week in Crescent City. Starting from the sheriff’s office, 13 runners representing different agencies ran 2.3 miles to the California Highway Patrol office to raise money for the Special Olympics.

Participants included officers, workers and spouses from California Highway Patrol, Pelican Bay State Prison, Del Norte County District Attorney’s office and the Yurok Tribal Police. The agencies raised $1,350 toward the Special Olympics. The Special Olympics has 14 official sports, including alpine skiing, basketball and floor hockey. Recently, Special Olympics athlete Amy Brockerstette made

headlines when she became the first person with down syndrome to participate in the National Junior College Athletic Association’s National Championship for women’s golf in Florida. “We hope to see you all next year as we plan to make this an annual event and continue to support not only [the] Special Olympics but our community!” CHP wrote in a Facebook post after the event.

DEL NORTE TRIPLICATE

Chamber announces 2021 Hometown Heroes Melodee Mitchell - executive director of DNCCC Melodee is the executive director of the Del Norte Child Care Council. She is a devoted leader, she volunteers with civic pride, and she strives for the safety and well-being of our families and children. Melodee sits on the Department of Juvenile Justice for Transitional Youth, local planning council and has served on the chamber board as vice president and president. Rene Shanle-Hutzell radio host Rene is always working to promote the businesses and organizations of Del Norte County. She is also the voice of “help” and authority when there are emergencies in the area. She represents genuine love for our community. Rene can always be counted on to lift spirits and cause a belly laugh. She is truly a gem for our small community. Jeannine Galatioto - retired CAO, active member of Soroptimist Jeannine exemplifies a strong woman who believes in public service to benefit all citizens. Jeannine is a soroptomist, leading the way to help educate others about the

risks of human trafficking. Jeannine has also provided public service through her church, St. Pauls’ Episcopal, heading the monthly community dinner program, assisting with the shower program and food pantry, as well as serving on the outreach response team which answers calls for gas, lodging and food. Jeannine has assisted Del Norte Mission Possible in solidifying, funding and organizing their outreach. John and Linda Ging - Avid Volunteers This couple is a miracle duo. They jump in and help with so many projects, always with a kind-selfless attitude. Examples of the contribution include the PTO/Chamber/Ambassador/ Elks/Emblems, and the list goes on. It’s always such an honor to be part of the projects they work on. They have assisted and lived in our area for quite a while now and remain a huge asset to Crescent City. Karen Neufeld Sanders - CalTrans/Republican Party head Karen is an incredible woman who works tirelessly for this community in many ways. You can often find Karen volunteering at

many functions, as a valued community member, as an employee of Caltrans or as a Republican leader. Regardless of the hat that she might wear that day, she is always a wonderful human being who treats and greets everyone with a smile and respect. Danielle Larsen - Wheeler-Humane Society Danielle is a fierce advocate for the animals and, because the program is largely unfunded, she organizes multiple fundraising efforts each year. Her ideas, such as Dancing with the Stars, poker tournaments, Dog Olympics and table events at local farmer’s markets and the fair, have become treasured events for the community. Danielle is a delight to be around. She finds humor in life’s situations and can be counted on to be a trusted friend. Chief Richard Griffin - Chief

of Police for Crescent City Ever since Chief Griffin was sworn in as chief of police, he has completely turned the department around. Chief Griffin has fostered a sense of “not me but we” within CCPD and his officers are excelling as a result. Chief Griffin has what he likes to refer to as a “family” unit at CCPD. The officers care for each other and this community, deeply. Chief Griffin has encouraged the strengths he has discovered in each of his officers and has utilized them to not only grow the individual, but to strengthen this community with what skills the officers have to give. Eric Wier - Crescent City, City Manager Eric Wier sees the community in its potential - always. He is an example of leadership and drive. First one in, last

707.460.6333

one out - working long hours, weekends, even working staff jobs when the city has been shorthanded. Whatever the job was, he would do it. He grew up in this community and believes in Crescent City and Del Norte. He drives city staff every day to be better people, to see the good in others, and to work hard for our community and to make a difference. Celia Perez - Therapist, Avid Volunteer, Advocate for those less fortunate. Celia has a heart of gold. You can often find her volunteering for pretty much every event in our community. Last year, for Santa’s Workshop, Celia spent countless hours organizing requests from families, buying toys and essentials, and wrapping gifts for those in need. Celia never complained, she never wavered from her commitment, and she kept her spirits high even though she was clearly overworked with this massive commitment. Celia works several jobs, is an amazing mother, and is a very supportive friend to all. Born and raised in Del Norte County, she exemplifies the true meaning of hero to all that know her. Michael Baxter - Tree Faller/ Elks Lodge/Veteran Michael Baxter has a personal understanding of what our veterans go through after their return from service. Michael has worked hand-in-hand with Barbara Burke, a fellow Elk member

and grant writer, to obtain a grant through the Elks Grand Lodge to provide lunches every Thursday to our homeless vets. Michael distributes the meals to veterans in various homeless encampments in and around the Crescent City area. Michael also works as a liaison between the homeless and Mission Possible to arrange for trash pick-up in the homeless encampments in exchange for necessities, such as blankets and food. Mel and Peggy Thomas Search and Rescue Together, Mel and Peggy have dedicated more than 50 years to Search and Rescue. They and their dogs have been a valuable asset to SAR. Both of them were CARDA (California Rescue Dog Association) members before they joined SAR. They have put hundreds of hours of training into their dogs and the maintenance of their certifications. Frank Ormonde - Business Owner and Benevolent Contributor Frank Ormonde is always finding ways to better his community. He quietly works behind the scenes, never wanting to draw attention to the good things he contributes. Frank is involved with St. Joseph’s Church, and actively helps fundraising efforts for Rowdy Creek Fish Hatchery, the NRA Dinner, the Chamber of Commerce and youth sports.
