F

orty-four. The number itself is so staggering that we decided to use it as the headline for this week’s cover story about Eureka’s Dec. 6 officer-involved shooting. In our collective memories here at the Journal, never can we recall a local incident when officers fired so many bullets, much less in a situation where they didn’t see return fire. And keep in mind this transpired in downtown Eureka shortly before 5 p.m., when pedestrians and vehicle traffic were at their daily peak.

The incident is but one of the latest examples of an escalating trend of gun violence in Humboldt County. Earlier this year, we ran a story (“Strapped,” July 21) detailing the alarming rates at which the Eureka Police Department was seizing firearms from suspects. And while Eureka’s per-capita seizure rate was the most disturbing — double that of Baltimore, three times that of Oakland and nearly five times that of Chicago — we found the Humboldt County Sheriff ’s Office was also finding suspects armed at a rate that would be shocking if it, too, hadn’t been dwarfed by that in Eureka.

Now, here we are in December and Humboldt County has recorded an unprecedented 21 homicides and counting, eclipsing the previous record of 16 set back in 2014. If that’s not scary enough, consider that the county averaged 8.18 homicides a year from 1986 through 2013, but has seen an average of 17 killings a year since. Trying to make sense of the madness, officials have blamed the county’s

442-3763 ext. 217

escalating violence on everything from drug culture to a general disregard for human life.

Whatever the reason, if you’re one of the men and women in Humboldt County who don a badge, a duty belt and a weapon daily to patrol our streets, these trends have to be terrifying. We can’t ignore this as context to what we saw unfold in Eureka on Dec. 6.

And we must also recognize that we’re dealing with limited information about that incident at this point, as the multi-agency investigation is just beginning and it will likely be months before we begin to know the full story. We don’t know, for instance, if the four officers who fired their weapons during the incident “reasonably believed” they were protecting themselves or others from an imminent threat of death or serious bodily injury, as EPD’s policy requires before officers fire their service weapons at a suspect.

Nobody should blame our officers for taking the necessary steps to make sure they return home at the end of their shifts.

While we ask a lot of those in uniform — probably too much, really — we can’t ask them to become martyrs. But because we as a society give them guns and the authority to use them, we can and should ask and expect that they keep a level head, that they display courage amid chaos.

After interviewing witnesses to the chase and shooting on Dec. 6, it seems clear that 26-year-old Clayton Lee Lasinski first and foremost wanted to flee. It seems that one of the central questions in this

incident will be what exactly happened when he hopped into an idling Mazda 3 at Sole Savers only to find an EPD officer — Steven Linfoot — with his service weapon pointed at him. Backed into a corner, did Lasinski point his gun at the officer? If so, Linfoot would almost certainly have been justified in opening fire.

But if not, if the officer simply opened fire to prevent a suspect — one who’s only alleged crimes at that point were fleeing the scene of a traffic stop, briefly brandishing a weapon and evading an officer — from stealing a car and getting away, well, then we fear some of our officers may be falling prey to the same escalating violence and disregard for human life as others in this county.

That would be the scariest trend of all. ●

Editor: The Democrats got shellacked in the 2016 election (“Let’s Get to Work,” Nov. 17). The presidency, both houses of Congress, governorships, state houses, dog catcher, you name it. According to the Associated Press, Clinton won 487 counties nationwide, compared with 2,626 for President-elect Donald Trump. Some Californians want to leave the union over the Trump win. Does anyone know how NorCal can leave California?

Anyway…

Trump was/is a true revolutionary, both in his message and his method of spreading it. A Real Clear Politics poll showed 70-plus percent of the people thought our country was heading in the wrong direction. A non-politician (thank God) stepped up and stood for the common American.

Why are we surprised when the elite’s choice/agenda was beaten?

Our country was formed by revolutionaries who sacrificed their lives/fortunes to form a Constitution that gave power to the people not the government. Trump believes America and Americans should come first. He worked like hell taking on all detractors, including the elite media, who also lost big time respect and audience. Trump used technology to go over the press’ head, past the media’s “gate-keeping,” their bias and irrelevance, straight to the American people through his Twitter account.

So let’s see what happens. We passed the power of our country to a new president in a peaceful civilized manner with the exception being the same old tired rioters;

70 percent of whom I bet have not even registered, let alone voted. We now know the press cannot be trusted with the truth.

The malaise and division created by the politicization of the press has gone on far too long. People are feeling anxious.

Personally, I am excited and looking forward to our new president bringing in new ideas/plans for our country. I am optimistic for big changes in a good way for our country. This country began with revolutionaries. Now they are called patriots.

Rick Brennan, Eureka Editor: I agree with letter-writer Janet Sclar’s observation (“Mailbox,” Dec. 1) that the anti-Trump camp doesn’t understand Trump’s “bravado, sarcasm, lack of “political correctness” and rhetoric, while at the same time they swallow every negative tidbit and nuance they can from the ratings-driven … media without bothering to check the facts.”

Bravado and sarcasm worked well to entertain the masses and disarm political adversaries. However, Trump lacks an attention span for any projects except his own aggrandizement. Despite this lack, he has been busily appointing people to powerful positions, and these people do have attention spans and coherent political philosophies. Do some research about them. A lot of interesting facts are available if you dig a little deeper than the “ratings-driven media.” And don’t believe everything you read in your inbox.

Trump’s appointees are going to try to use him as a puppet, but he may not be all that easy to manipulate, even when he’s duly flattered. Meanwhile, Congressional Republicans are also going to try to use

spirit and desire to make the world a better place. It gives hope for the future which is in serious need of hope at this time.

Pam Halstead, Eureka Editor: I want to express my gratitude for Rod Kausen’s moving piece about teenagers.

I’ve been lucky enough to spend most of my career around teens, and have known most of them to be thoughtful, creative and inclusive human beings. And though it’s easy to generalize whenever we talk

about a group of people, let us not forget they are all individuals with their own unique hopes, fears, dreams and worries.

Every single one of us wants to be heard, and teens are no exception. Thank you for giving them voice.

I, too, believe this generation will lead the way in creating a more accepting and tolerant society. That hope burns brightly for me in these tense political times.

‘Distance and Cover’ Editor: Tommy McClain would still be alive today if the EPD had not decided to harass him on the morning of Sept. 17, 2014 (NCJ Daily, Nov. 24). Tommy had no police record and nobody had called to complain about him. He was standing peacefully on his porch before [then-] Sgt. Stephens Continued on next page »

him. These warring cross purposes will probably undermine the effectiveness of Trump’s agenda — whatever that might be.

I don’t think Trump himself is a white nationalist, but he has emboldened white nationalists and violent, xenophobic people with his carelessly inflammatory talk.

Most people I know have reacted with determination to reach out to those who might be at risk. That is a good development. We all need to be aware, informed, and ready to react specifically to whatever comes down the pipeline.

Martha Walden, Bayside

The Kids are All Right

Editor: I am an educator at the same school as Rod and have been teaching for as many years as he has (“Teens These Days,” Dec. 1).

I appreciated Rod’s article because it made important and relevant insights to what it means to be a teen and I especially like the toddler/cookie analogy. Expecting teens to be adults is premature and unrealistic.

It addressed important issues simultaneously: the use of drugs, the election, the breakdown of the family, the beautiful normalcy and sense of wonder for some youth, the questioning, compassionate nature of many, and the infiltration of the marijuana culture into our community.

Rod is right. Students have a more accepting nature than adults, which in our present society has the potential to create bridges rather than burn them.

drew his gun commanding Tommy to walk toward him.

The problem I have with the jury’s decision is this: If they agree that officer Linfoot’s negligence — his violation of tactic and command protocols — caused the chaotic and dangerous situation that resulted in him killing McClain, then any force he used should, ipso facto, be considered excessive and unnecessary.

In this I agree with the plaintiff’s expert witness Mr. Clark. If Linfoot and Stephens had followed their POST (Police Officer Standards and Training, mandatory for all California Police Officers) and remained in cover (positioning themselves behind their cars or a close by telephone pole) they would have had more time to talk with McClain and from a greater distance, and with less anxiety and fear of personal injury or death.

Clark testified that “distance and cover equals time.” Remaining in cover would have given the officers time to ask McClain about the gun they thought he had in his waistband. McClain would have had the time to tell them it was a replica pellet gun and that it wasn’t loaded. The situation could have been deescalated, resulting in a peaceful resolution and McClain would not have been killed. Also, as per POST, if only one officer had done the talking with McClain, then ambiguous, contradictory and confusing commands would have been less likely to have contributed to the fatal outcome.

Even this partial justice only came about through the work of community members organized to keep an eye on the police, www.redwoodcurtaincopwatch.net.

Significant Impacts Editor: I thought the article about the lack of student housing in Arcata lacked depth of understanding of local economics, wages and basic return on capital (“Homeless State University,” Dec. 8). The large student population in Arcata has a mixed impact on the city and its long term residents. The positives about living in a college town …

I am sure the readers can come up with various things, like the four or so coffee shops we have and the five or six bars. The negatives, if you are a long-term resident, are significant. While students bring a net inflow of capital from outside the region in the form of students loans, grants and support from parents that are spent here, the expenditures benefit mostly a small group of business investors, particularly those who have a long-term investment in

residential rental properties.

For the local working class, students, as an externally subsidized part-time work force, depress wages (hey, they are getting that check from mom and pops or the government; working at the local coffee shop is just pocket change) and increase the cost of housing through competition for scarce housing.

Housing in Arcata is scarce (no new building) because the ratio of return on capital investment is low because wages are low, property taxes are high and a significant proportion of the tenants in a college town are short-term renters. In my experience, students, as a group, tend to be poor tenants because they rent short term and tend to damage property. That is why property owners want first, last and a significant deposit. If you think the housing market is tough here (it isn’t) try Los Angeles, San Francisco, Oakland, Seattle, New York, Boston or any other large metropolitan area.

undergo specialized and ongoing training.

“There’s a level of expertise we demand if you’re going to be a CIRT investigator,” he said.

Under CIRT protocol, the agency that has jurisdiction where the incident takes place activates and oversees the investigation, meaning that role generally, but not always, falls to the organization that employs the officer or officers involved.

Recent exceptions include the November of 2015 investigation into a CHP shooting in Eureka that left an officer wounded and a suspect dead, which was headed by the Eureka Police Department.

Another was the January of 2016 shooting in Eureka that involved investigators with the district attorney’s office, which saw the Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office and EPD co-lead the inquiry.

In that case, District Attorney Maggie Fleming also asked the California Attorney General’s Office to make a charging decision, a protocol also included in the guidelines.

Updated in October of this year, the Humboldt County protocols used the Santa Clara County Police Chief’s Association Officer-Involved Incident Guidelines as a template. Moving forward, the working document will be reviewed each January.

Honsal said he spent several months with investigators of local agencies going over the revised document “line by line” to add more detailed language and address recent developments, such as the

use of body cameras by several local departments and the fact that calling in DOJ investigators is no longer an option due to budget cuts.

“The Attorney General has advocated to the Governor, the Speaker of the Assembly, and the Senate President pro Tem for the necessary resources to create new teams within the Attorney General’s office to conduct criminal investigations of officer-involved shootings,” state DOJ Deputy Communications Director Kristin Ford said in an email to the Journal.

Another change in the Humboldt County guidelines was adding all officer-involved shootings, not just those which result in injury or death, to the list of critical incidents, Honsal said.

The protocol, like the one used in Santa Clara County, has built-in allowances for differences in individual agency procedures. The Fortuna Police Department, for example, allows officers involved in a shooting to view video of the incident before an initial interview, while Eureka does not.

“This policy is in place for transparency,” Honsal said. “That’s why we all sign off on it. But it is still in there that it’s a discretionary thing.”

When completed, the current officer-involved shooting investigation will be sent to Fleming, who will have 60 days Continued on next page »

Medical Cannabis Medical Cannabis can be extremely beneficial for many patients who seek relief. It can also be very confusing if you don’t know all the options out there. From flowers to edibles, smoking to juicing, the amount of choices can be overwhelming.

At the Humboldt CA Association, we are here to help you through the process. We offer a variety of options for our patients to choose from, but more importantly, we offer our patients the opportunity to sit down one on one with our staff and design a specific care plan for their needs.

There are now several CBD (cannabidiol) options for patients who are looking for relief without a cerebral effect. CBD is the non-psychoactive cannabinoid compound that has incredible therapeutic benefits. CBD rich products are available in capsules, tincture sprays, and edibles for the patient who may not want to smoke at all.

These products can help to relieve pain, reduce blood sugar levels, reduce seizures, calm inflammation, and can even inhibit cell growth in some tumor and cancer cells. There are over 100 cannabinoids that have been identified in the cannabis plant, and, with that, more benefits of the cannabis plant are discovered.

We believe in the ‘Heart of Humboldt’, and professional and compassionate care is what you will always receive here.

Pot Meds for Pets

By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

I

f, like me, your knowledge of pets plus pot ended in high school with your dumb cousins blowing second-hand smoke into their dog’s ears, prepare to recalibrate. Animals, ranging from the fluffy to the scaly to the cloven-hooved, represent the newest market for medical cannabis. In October the New York Times featured a photo slideshow of pets that had been treated with cannabis tinctures.

And while it’s impossible not to snicker at the portraits of a sleepy-eyed cat, bug-eyed terrier and spaced-out turtle, these patients aren’t getting high, they’re getting better.

“My dog Lula is wrought with problems,” says Nora Mounce (in the interest of full disclosure, Mounce is also an occasional Journal contributor.) “She has chronic hyperparathyroidism … the disease has exacerbated the aging process. She has severe muscle loss in her hind legs, cloudy cataracts and wicked anxiety.”

Last fall, when Lula was having a bad week and not eating, Mounce almost canceled a trip out of town. She called the suggestion of cannabidiol (CBD) medications a “lightbulb moment.” Within a week, Lula was back to regular meals.

Allison Ettel, founder of Treatwell, which produces the medicine Mounce used, says her company began making CBD tinctures for pets about 10 years ago. Treatwell sources its cannabis from Southern Humboldt.

“I have seen better results with animals than with humans,” claims Ettel, clarifying that CBD tinctures are not the same as pot butter or hemp, which are contraindicted for use in animals. CBD compounds work in conjunction with tetrahydrocannabinol, the stoney part of the chemical equation, administering results through what’s known as the “entourage” effect, but most pet meds are low on THC. “We do not believe in pure THC for dogs,” says Ettel, adding that most cases of pot toxicity in animals involve dogs accidentally getting into their owner’s stash.

Ettel’s company is currently recruiting livestock and exotic pet owners for free treatment as it refines its products.

How to obtain CBD medicines for pets, and how they’re prescribed, remains murky.

Many dispensaries carry pet products, and their workers offer advice on administering tinctures, which are often mixed with salmon oil. (Doggie biscuits are less common than they once were because many patients already have low appetites.) But veterinarians cannot currently prescribe or offer advice on CBD compounds without risking their licenses due to the federal scheduling of marijuana. So is having non-professionals give veterinary advice ethical?

“Pets can’t give consent for any medication we give them,” says Kate Scott, a registered veterinary technician with VetCBD, another medical cannabis company. “Pets can’t give consent to be spayed or for arthritis medication. Cannabis is a viable medicine for people, why not for pets? They have the same endocannabinoid system as humans.”

VetCBD, which was developed by a veterinarian, also bills itself as “non-psychoactive.” Its website lists possible applications as arthritis, anxiety, inflammation, nausea, loss of appetite and seizures. Like Treatwell, Scott says her company is also experimenting with other species, specifically equines.

However, as with humans, it can be hard to separate out the effects of different treatments. Jamie Bellerman, of McKinleyville, says his injured boxer-rottweiler Bailey’s mobility has improved since he began treating her with a CBD tincture.

She is also taking other medications.

Because of the unclear nature of cannabis’ relationship to traditional veterinary medicine, it may be difficult to get good advice on possible drug interactions. Bellerman was willing to take the risk when he saw Bailey suffering after a failed knee surgery.

“Essentially, how we treat our pets says something about our society,” says Bellerman, referencing a recent National Public Radio story about anti-depressants for pets. “I’ve never been utterly convinced about the efficacy of medical marijuana, but I hear it helps. As a pet owner, and as a Californian, I’m willing to say, OK, give me the drugs. She’s doing better now.” l northcoastjournal.com • North Coast Journal • Thursday, Dec. 15, 2016

Dirty, Trashy Arcata

T

his past week saw two major turning points for Arcata consumers. First, as of midnight on Friday, the independent Arcata Garbage Company officially passed into the hands of Recology Humboldt, which provides trash services for several other Humboldt cities. The parent company, Recology, has become a West Coast behemoth, with resource recovery companies in California, Oregon and Washington.

But Humboldt Recology Manager Linda Wise says virtually nothing will change for Arcata residents.

“People should be seeing the same service, same employees,” says Wise, adding that Recology is an employee-owned company, and all Arcata Garbage employees will stay on. “Eventually, we’ll get a new website, logos on trucks and buildings.

There will be no changes in any costs.”

The change came about as longtime owner of Arcata Garbage Co., Rick Fusi, decided to retire. Fusi was interviewed for a 2012 Journal story about Humboldt’s surprisingly dramatic recycling scene (“The Recyclable Journey,” Aug. 23, 2012.)

But as trash goes corporate, there’s a new indie business dealing in dirt. The newly-minted Arcata Compost Revolution, begun by avid zero-waster and Humboldt State University student Alec Howard (“No Crap,” April 21), launched this week with three restaurant clients. The small

business is community scale and uses an electric bike and cart to collect food scraps and compost, which it is pedaling to local farms.

“We have plans to get more businesses on board this month,” says Howard, who is moonlighting between classes and a job with the city of Arcata. Ultimately he hopes to employ students. “In 2017, we’re planning to expand to residential compost as well. A lot of people try to manage compost piles and don’t do that effectively. Some people run into the common issues associated with having compost piles; they have rats, don’t have the right materials, or amount of materials. Or they simply don’t have the time.”

Howard argues that large-scale compost collection, which is offered in many major cities, can be problematic because of the carbon footprint of vehicles used to haul the material. In a recent analysis of Humboldt County’s waste stream, Cascadia Consulting found that food waste is the heaviest material leaving Arcata.

A pedal-powered, hyper-local compost service that caters to local farms could disrupt that trend. Recently, Howard and his business partner, Milly Correa, hauled old Halloween pumpkins to a local farm and fed them to the pigs.

“They were very happy,” says Correa.

Four officers, an armed suspect and 12 terrifying minutes in downtown Eureka’s rush hour

By Thadeus Greenson Photos by Mark McKenna

I

t was about 4:40 p.m. on Dec. 6 and Steve Fowlkes was out driving a Dodge Ram pickup truck that he’d just rebuilt the transmission on. The 56-year-old father of two and grandfather of two had planned on just taking the truck home with him for the night to give it a test drive, but its owner seemed anxious to get it back, so Fowlkes was out circling the block around his shop, Eureka Smog and Repair on Summer Street,

before dropping it off to the customer at Sole Savers auto dealership.

Just up Fifth Street, Fieldbrook native Jessica Mahoney sat behind the counter at the Hertz car rental office, filling out paperwork. Sitting across from the mother of four and answering questions about fuel and insurance options were two men — one from France, the other from Chile — looking to rent a car to drive down to the San Francisco Airport, where they

planned to catch flights home.

Meanwhile, a few streets over, Clayton Lee Lasinski was driving a white Dodge pickup truck. He allegedly wasn’t wearing his seatbelt, a detail that would set off a chain of events ending in a hail of gunfire in downtown Eureka. Within 15 minutes, four Eureka police officers would fire a total of more than 40 bullets as part of a chaotic chase that left Lasinski lying on Fifth Street, bleeding from a single

nonfatal gunshot wound to the chest.

And Fowlkes and Mahoney would have witnessed gunfire in the streets for the first time in their lives.

In the aftermath of the officer-involved shooting — Eureka’s first since officer Steven Linfoot shot and killed 22-yearold Thomas McClain on Allard Avenue in September of 2014, and its second in the past six years — the Journal interviewed about a dozen witnesses who observed Continued on next page »

A Eureka police officer gets out of his patrol vehicle and begins pursuing Lasinski on foot near where the alley meets Seventh Street.

According to Humboldt County court records — other than being extradited back to Illinois in May of 2013 — he’s never been charged with a crime locally as an adult. However, Mills said a subsequent search of his hotel room found “a little heroin and three pounds of (marijuana) shake.”

Roy’s Auto Center’s other location, farther down Fifth Street, had been standing on the sidewalk watching all the police activity at the Best Western across the street when he saw a man in a black hooded sweatshirt spring across Fifth Street and up Summer. He said he called an officer over to pass along what he saw.

Michael Williams, who works in the maintenance department at Roy’s Auto Center on Fourth Street, was standing in the showroom when a young man in a hooded black sweatshirt and camouflage pants opened the glass door and leaned inside. “He asked if he could use the phone because, of all things, he said he needed to call a cab,” Williams said. “You could see something wasn’t right, just his expression and he seemed all worked up. Our sales manager thought he looked suspicious and said, ‘We can’t let you use the phone.’ He took off running across the street.”

“CHP is requesting Code 3 backup for a subject who fled, unknown direction of travel, possibly armed with an unknown weapon,” blurts the police scanner. Moments earlier, a California Highway Patrol officer had been conducting routine traffic enforcement in the downtown area when he saw Lasinski allegedly driving without a seatbelt and began to follow him, according to EPD. Lasinski then allegedly rolled through a stop sign while turning west on Fourth Street and the officer initiated a traffic stop.

Lasinski pulled his Dodge pickup into the parking lot of the Best Western, where he had a room, but jumped out of the vehicle and ran, leaving his two female passengers behind. When the officer pulled into the parking lot, he reported seeing Lasinski running on one of the hotel’s second-floor balconies. A pair of motel employees reportedly tried to detain the 26-year-old but he allegedly told them he was “strapped” and brandished a .45 caliber handgun, and they let him pass.

He then reportedly jumped off a balcony and hopped a fence out of the Best Western property at the corner of Fourth and Commercial streets.

About two minutes after the initial scanner call, a dispatcher updates that the suspect is wearing a black sweatshirt and camouflage pants, and that “according to a witness, subject displayed a firearm.”

At an EPD press conference held the day after the shooting, Chief Andrew Mills said Lasinski believed he had an out-ofstate warrant, which may be why he fled after the traffic stop. According to Henry County, Illinois, court records, Lasinski was arrested in January of 2011 when he and his mother were pulled over on Interstate 80 and found in possession of more than 4 pounds of marijuana. Both pleaded guilty to transportation charges and were given 36 month’s probation. Henry County prosecutors have moved to revoke Lasinski’s probation four times in the years since, once even having him extradited from Humboldt County. According to online court records, prosecutors again moved to revoke his probation in July of 2013 and he hasn’t appeared in court there since. Attempts to reach the Henry County State’s Attorney’s office for more information were unsuccessful.

“I’ve got him. He is running toward Seventh between a couple of buildings,” officer Steven Linfoot calls in to dispatch.

This appears to be the first time in the pursuit that an EPD officer laid eyes on Lasinski. About 40 seconds later, Linfoot updates: “Westbound. Jumped a fence.”

“Going toward auto dealership. Foot pursuit, going toward the back lot of EPD,” Linfoot calls again, this time with the strain of running and the stress of a chase heavy in his voice. It’s unclear exactly why, but Linfoot has made the decision to get out of his patrol car and pursue Lasinski on foot. This was a noteworthy decision.

EPD’s foot pursuit policy begins with a warning: “Foot pursuits are inherently

The Mazda comes to a stop at the intersection of Sixth and B, less than a block away from where Lasinski allegedly stole it. It’s unclear exactly why the vehicle stopped here but the vehicle was drawing gunfire from officers at the time. Lasinski takes off running north on B Street.

EPD officer Steven Linfoot pursues Lasinski on foot onto the Sole Savers auto dealership lot. A running Mazda 3 is idling in a loading bay with its passenger door open.

dangerous.” In fact, the policy deems them so dangerous that it explicitly states that no officer can be criticized or disciplined for deciding not to engage in one. The policy admonishes officers that the safety of department personnel and the public should be the most important consideration when determining whether to initiate or continue a foot pursuit, and notes that “surveillance and containment are generally the safest tactics for apprehending fleeing persons.”

The policy further warns against foot pursuits when an officer is alone and when the suspect’s identity is known — meaning he or she can be apprehended at another time — and there “is no immediate threat to department personnel or the public if the suspect is not immediately apprehended.”

4:49:49 p.m.

“Code 4. Shots fired,” Linfoot calls in, alerting dispatch that shots have been fired but he’s OK. Moments earlier, Steve Fowlkes had pulled into the Sole Savers lot to return the Dodge Ram with the new transmission.

EPD’s policy also states that shooting at a moving vehicle is “generally prohibited,” though it goes on to say it is permitted if there are no other “reasonable means available to avert the threat of the vehicle.”

The day after the shooting, three bullet holes could be seen in a white shed in the loading bay behind where the Mazda had sat idling the day before. Bullet strikes were visible on an adjacent wall.

A woman who works in the Sole Savers finance department and declined to give her name said she’d been in the office when the shooting occurred. “I just saw a cop run by the window and then all holy hell broke loose,” she said. “We got under our desks and didn’t come out until they said it was OK.” She was then asked how many shots she heard. “A lot,” she answered. “A lot.”

Tom Sadler, a project manager at New Life Service Co. on the east corner of Fifth and B streets, said he was sitting in his office deep in the labrynth-like building when the company’s administrative assistant came running back to say she’d heard gunshots and seen a commotion outside. By the time Sadler got to the front window that looks out onto Fifth Street, Lasinski was leaned up against a black Volkswagen Jetta parked in the middle of the block.

Officers were yelling for Lasinski to drop the gun and get his hands in the air, Sadler said, but the commands didn’t seem to register. “He didn’t seem to be paying attention to anyone at that time,” he said, adding that he watched the scene unfold over the course of several minutes as police officers kept their guns aimed at Lasinski, apparently waiting for him to give up or make a move. “He was leaning against the car, then he slumped down and he’s like sitting, then he just fell over,” Sadler said. “Then, the cops come over and take the gun out of his hand and lay it on the hood of the car.”

4:55:40 p.m.

“We’re Code 4. You can have medical respond just outside American Stove. One detained,” Capt. Brian Stephens, who has vertical responsibility for all personnel and

functions related to patrol, tells dispatch after officers disarm and cuff Lasinski.

Stephens then assigns himself incident command and starts assigning officers tasks. While roughly a dozen officers are clustered around Lasinski, none begin administering first aid to the suspect in the roughly one minute and 15 seconds between when he’s cuffed and an ambulance arrives on scene.

While some initial media

reports described the chase as a firefight or a shootout, when Mills held a press conference the following day — after the dust had settled and officers from a host of agencies had worked through the night to process evidence strewn across at least five city blocks — the police chief said there’s no evidence Lasinski ever fired his weapon. Mills said the suspect’s .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol was found with a full magazine, an empty chamber and its hammer cocked back, which Mills said makes him believe Lasinski had tried to fire the weapon but was unable to.

According to several sources familiar with the investigation, four Eureka police officers — Linfoot, senior detective Ron Harpham and officers Abraham Jansen and Dustin Nantz — combined to fire 44 rounds that night. Mills wouldn’t confirm that but said officers did fire more than 40. Meanwhile, sources tell

A bullet hole in the window of a Dodge SUV that was parked near the Mazda 3 at Sole Savers when a Eureka police officer opened fire on Dec. 6.

the Journal that Harpham, the only officer to wound Lasinski, fired just once during the chase. Linfoot, according to sources, fired 17 times.

As the Journal goes to press a week after the shooting, the investigation remains in its infancy. The officers involved were scheduled to be interviewed Dec. 9, there is a lot of physical evidence to analyze and potentially lots of video to review from dashboard-mounted and body-worn cameras.

But what we know right now is that a 26-year-old man who has never been charged with a crime locally and was potentially wanted for an out-of-state probation violation was armed with a handgun and fled a traffic stop. None of the witnesses the Journal interviewed saw Lasinski displaying his gun or pointing it at officers until the pursuit’s final minutes, after he’d been shot at dozens of times.

The pursuit — and tensions — escalated to the point where police fired more than 40 bullets in Eureka’s downtown on the cusp of rush hour.

At the press conference, Mills said the time of day the shooting occurred is concerning and pledged that the investigations into the incident will be fair and impartial, ultimately looking at whether the officers involved acted criminally and whether they followed EPD policies. And, he said, each of the four officers will have

to answer for every gunshot he fired.

“I understand that each officer is personally accountable for every round that they discharge and where that round ends up,” he said. “And I will report back to the community once we’ve completed that investigation as to our actions last night.”

In the meantime, those who were going about their everyday lives in downtown when gunshots rang out on Dec. 6 — people like Fowlkes, Mahoney and Sadler — continue to come to grips with what they saw.

For his part, Fowlkes was shaken. That night, when back at the home off Myrtle Avenue that he shares with his wife and their adult daughter, whose husband is currently deployed in Iraq, he couldn’t sleep. He sat in the quiet house. Around midnight, he contemplated knocking on a neighbor’s door who he knows works as a police officer. He needed someone to talk to. Finally, he called EPD dispatch and talked to a woman named “Tracy.”

“She said, ‘Just calm down,’” Fowlkes recalled. “She told me it would be all right.”

The following day, standing in the Sole Savers lot and talking to a reporter, Fowlkes said he was still processing how helpless he’d felt the day before. His voice trailed off for a moment, then he started again.

“I believe in guardian angels,” he said. “You have to. I’m all right. It’s just something you don’t want to think about.” ●

ast weekend my dad and I got out for his birthday. We launched our old inflatable boat, powered by a small outboard motor, and took off out of the bay armed with box traps and hoop nets. Our goal was to bring in some of California’s tastiest crustaceans — Dungeness crabs. Every year since I was a boy, I would accompany my older brother and my dad out on the boat in search of these crabs. For me, crabbing is part of a tradition that stretches back generations.

20 North Coast Journal • Thursday, Dec. 15, 2016 • northcoastjournal.com

There is something special about being on the open water, feeling the spray of the sea and taking in all the sights and smells.

I cannot tell you how many times we have been accompanied by whales, seals and sea lions — yesterday it was a whole pod of porpoises.

Taj Mahal once sang, “Many fish bites if ya got good bait.” This absolutely applies to luring crabs into your traps. Ask the “old salts” of any port city, dock or pier and they will all have opinions on why their

particular choice of bait is the best. But all you need is to keep the carcasses after you have removed fillets from your last catch. If you have been too landlocked or busy to get out fishing lately, just ask your local fishmonger if he or she has any fish heads in the back. If you cannot find fish carcasses, a sodacan-sized container with plenty of holes punched in it can be filled with squid and lashed inside (in the center) of your trap.

If you don’t lash it down and it moves near the trap edge, crabs will sit outside the trap next to the bait and when you bring your gear in you might “get skunked.”

One does not necessarily need a powerboat to catch crab. You can take Dungeness successfully from a kayak in calmer waters such as Humboldt and Trinidad bays. However, such a small vessel limits the number of traps you can transport. Anglers can also drop traps off of piers, rock points and jetties. In fact, no fishing license is required when fishing or crabbing on public piers in the ocean or bays. But the general rule of successful anglers is to go where there are fewer people and therefore less fishing and crabbing pressure. This is why hiking, paddling or motoring beyond where most have already cast traps will often result in more plentiful catches. The most important thing to remember is that Dungeness, unlike red rock crabs, prefer a sandy bottom habitat. Find sand/rock interfaces and you will likely find these delicious crabs.

Build to edge of the document Margins are just a safe area

December at the farm...

Crab traps come in two main forms, box traps and hoop nets. Both of these are available at local sporting goods and fishing shops, and both have their relative advantages and disadvantages. Lighter hoop nets can be easily thrown from rocks but they are often open on top, which means you need to retrieve them quickly or crabs can climb out as you pull the trap back to the shore or boat. Box traps are far too heavy to throw from the rocks but once a crab enters the trap it is nearly impossible for it to escape.

I cannot overstate how absolutely essential it is to wear a personal floatation device (PFD), aka life jacket, when out on the water. Knowing how to swim even if you only plan to crab from the rocks is also a must. All it takes is one large unseen wave to wash you from the rocks, followed by a significant undertow, and your life could be in serious danger. Additionally, each trap typically has a 75- to 100-foot rope topped with a float so the trap settles on the bottom without submerging the float. If you aren’t careful dropping your trap over the edge of your boat, you could easily become tangled, dragged overboard and pulled down. This scenario is potentially deadly, so please heed these warnings.

And now a bit about fishing ethics. It is illegal to pull and check another angler’s traps. People do this from time to time and it is sure to result in heavy fines if you are seen by a warden or in a serious fistfight if you are seen by the trap owner.

Additionally, sport anglers are allowed 10 crabs per day measuring at least 5 ¾ inches each. Keeping undersized crabs is illegal. The Department of Fish and Wildlife strictly regulates the numbers and size of crabs that can be taken to ensure that enough crabs reach reproductive maturity and subsequent years will have sustainable crab fisheries. Please stay within the limit and throw back undersized crabs — even if it means coming home empty handed.

Crabbers will need a valid fishing license

(and I strongly suggest you ask for a free copy of the 2016-2017 ocean fishing regulations and/or visit www.wildlife.ca.gov so you know the rules). You’ll also need a crab gauge for measuring. Most gauges will have a point measuring 6 inches, which is the minimum size for commercial fishers, and another measuring 5 ¾ inches for sport anglers like us. Be sure you measure with the correct portion of the gauge or you risk throwing back crabs that are legal for you.

Before going crabbing, always call the California Biotoxin Information line at (800) 553-4133 to be sure crabs are safe to consume. Conditions change, and some years (as was the case last season) elevated levels of natural domoic acid concentrated in crabs made the meat toxic for human consumption. This is due to crabs feeding on marine worms that filter-feed on plankton. All it takes is one freak toxic plankton bloom and crabs can become poisonous to humans. The hotline you will tell you what species are safe to consume and which areas of the state may still be in quarantine. This year, new regulations require that the “Go ID” number (printed on your fishing license) must be written on you crab floats. Another new regulation requires an escape hatch for box traps that is secured with cotton string so that if box traps are lost, the string will rapidly decompose and allow trapped crabs to escape.

Bring a VHF Marine Radio on your boat and know that channel 16 is the emergency channel if you get into a life-threatening situation. Finally, a GPS is not a bad idea for marking your point of entry and your trap locations, especially in heavy fog. But don’t rely completely on modern technology as batteries can die. Always keep reference points and landmarks in mind while on the water. Ask yourself where is that buoy in relation to the big rocky point, and what direction is the harbor from there? This can literally save your life. Most importantly, have a great time and enjoy those tasty crustaceans. l

Table Talk

Humboldt on Tap

Geon-bae, South Korea — this beer’s for you

By Carrie Peyton Dahlberg tabletalk@northcoastjournal.com

N

ext time you’re wandering Eureka’s waterfront, take a moment to look west and remember: All that lies between you and South Korea is a boat ride.

“A very short boat ride,” Sunghoo Yang assures me.

Yang, slender and understated, manages to look urbane even in jeans and a hoodie bearing his brewery’s name: The Booth Brewing Co. Maybe it’s the two-toned glasses or the backswept hair. Maybe it’s the deliberate way Yang outlines each step of his decision to brew South Korean beer in California, for export back to South Korea.

Either way, Yang exudes exactly what he is, a financial analyst turned CEO, a 29-year-old executive from a city of 20 million, plopped down a little improbably in Humboldt.

He is standing between a small test brewing rig and a large fermentation tank inside the sprawling, partially restored plant that used to belong to Lost Coast Brewery. Now it’s his.

The Booth’s brewmaster Chris Shelton works nearby, joking that for the past few years, Yang has basically built a profitable cover story: “Everything he does is so he can drink great beer.”

Shelton, with spiky hair and an engaging grin, is a Midwesterner who landed at The Booth after following his wife’s career to South Korea. The two men form an easy team, each praising the other’s expertise, both focused on the next new beer.

“We don’t want to make the same beers as everyone else,” says Shelton. They’re trying new hops, new yeasts, ingredients they don’t always care to name. Shelton tinkers with water chemistry and yeast strains, creating an IPA he describes as “softer, almost a little fluffier” than most others.

They anticipate producing 10,000 to 12,000 barrels annually at first, in a facility that’s capable of turning out 70,000.

So far, their brewing efforts fill only a fraction of the blocky yellow building on Eureka’s West Third Street. A worker’s RV is parked in one section and pigeons are being chased from another. A raucous screech of recorded birdcall starts up periodically as part of that slow eviction effort.

Less than four years ago, in 2013, Yang, his physician wife and a writer who once dissed South Korean beers co-founded a restaurant they called The Booth. It sold one beer and two kinds of pizza (cheese and pepperoni). “Most restaurants have one or two things they’re really good at,” says Yang, and if you order something else, you can end up disappointed. The founders wanted to create something like a food stall or a busy street market booth, a place that lures you back again and again for one or two superb specialties.

Then one beer became six. One bar became five. “We couldn’t keep up,” Yang says. “Every other month we would run out of beer. That really hurts sales. Customers would get angry.” Booth became a beer distributor. It founded a microbrewery. It opened a bar with Danish brewer Mikkeller. It struck a canning deal with a contract brewery in Florida. By 2016, The Booth Brewing Co. had exploded into a craft brew mini-empire with 90 employees, nine bars, one microbrewery and plenty of customer demand to keep on growing.

Why do that growing in Eureka?

That’s a two-part question, Yang says, and the first part is “why not South Korea?” Brewing at home runs up against a tax structure that falls heavily on all brewers but hits small brewers harder, he says. And the quality ingredients he wants all have to be imported, with the time lag and loss of freshness that can entail.

By comparison, North America’s western rim offers quality hops, quality yeast and a quality labor pool of experienced craft brewers. “It’s like the Silicon Valley of beer,” Yang says. As his search turned to specific sites, Eureka stood out partly because Lost Coast Brewing is well known in South Korea, having sold beer there for years.

Negotiations began in 2015 and took months. Federal licensing ate up more time. Cleanup and refurbishing has been no small chore. Finally, next month, Shelton expects to begin brewing the first full-scale of batches of three Booth beers: an IPA, a session IPA and a stout. All three will be poured into 12-ounce bottles or 20-liter kegs, then trucked to Oakland for shipping to South Korea.

Only a bit of Booth beer will remain in Humboldt.

The Booth Brewing Co. has no immediate plans to open an onsite tasting room.

Yang wants to sell some bottles here and hopes to place kegs in some local venues, but nothing firm has been lined up. Ask me again in January.

A Date with Beer

December – The Local Beer Bar’s long goodbye continues all month with beer specials, discounts on merchandise and wistful well-wishing to co-owners Darren and Michelle Cartledge, who will close the place down on New Year’s Eve. The site will go quiet for a month or so, and then re-open as the second venue for the Cartledges’ Humboldt Cider Co., with 15-20 ciders on tap, along with kombucha, wine, possibly cold-pressed coffee and — yes — a few beers. Just nowhere near as many varieties.

Friday, Dec. 16 – Do you have the most hideous holiday sweater ever? Really?

Prove it during Eel River Brewing’s ugly sweater contest and you could win something that makes wearing that thing worthwhile. Judging will be around 7 p.m.

Saturday, Dec. 31 – Dress to impress at Six Rivers Brewery’s New Year’s Eve celebration from 9 p.m. to 12:30 a.m. with a free champagne toast at midnight. DJ Dub Cowboy provides the music.

Thursday, Jan. 5 – Is this the year you vowed to learn a new skill? Make new friends? Drink locally? Fulfill three resolutions in one by joining Humboldt Homebrewers at their first meeting of 2017. Bring your homebrew or your homebrewing questions to the 7 p.m. meeting at Humboldt Beer Works in Eureka. Free to attend; $20 annually to join.

Friday, Jan. 6 – Mad River Brewing Co. reopens after closing on Dec. 24 for a mini-makeover. The freshly refurbished taproom will have seven more taps, for a total of 18 regular and two nitro. Expect Mad River specialties, cider and some guest brews, along with a new menu and live music from 6 to 8:30 p.m. A barleywine event follows on Saturday, Jan. 7.

Saturday, Jan. 14 – Of course beer goes with wedding cake. If you have any other questions about your big day, get some answers at Beer and Brides from 1 to 4 p.m. at Lost Coast Brewery in Eureka. The couples-friendly event includes a wedding planning seminar, beer tasting, refreshments and an event-related tour. All are free, but you have to call 267-9639 in advance to reserve a spot.

Monday, Jan. 16 through Sunday Jan. 22 – It’s customer appreciation week at Eel River Brewing’s taproom, with specials, giveaways and some beers that will only be available that week. And hey, the timing includes Inauguration Day, which should give everyone a reason to drink.

Wednesday, Feb. 1 – It’s not too early to get your tickets for a beer and bourbon dinner at HumBrews in Arcata. Five Anderson Valley Brewing Co. beers and at least one bourbon will be paired with a multi-course dinner. Seating is limited for the 6 p.m. event. $30. ● As a good Humboldtian, Carrie Peyton Dahlberg really did bother the port people, asking if it would make any sense to ship Booth beer out of Eureka. They kindly did not laugh but the short answer is no. The volume is many orders of magnitude too low. Send her your beer or shipping news at beerstainednotebook@ gmail.com.

Setlist

Holiday After Day

By Andy Powell

thesetlist@northcoastjournal.com

T

ime’s flying. The New Year is approaching. The War on Christmas has officially begun. The kids are almost out of school for the winter — I mean, Christmas break. So parents, you need to pack in as much amusement and entertainment as you can [more below] before the kids are at home all day maxing out your Internet plan and before your parents come back into town to visit. Money’s also tight this time of year as we all realize that our goals of not buying a bunch of material crap for our loved ones aren’t coming to fruition.

We’ll shop away — like we always do — to alleviate ourselves of the potential of disappointed children who don’t get every single thing they want.

Here are some unsolicited suggestions that I may or may not follow in my own life for this holiday — I mean, Christmas season. I know it’s not en vogue these days to actually purchase music but consider doing so for gifts (I mean really, would Jesus stream music without ever paying for it?) It’s tough to buy music for kids these days partly due to the physical manifestation the music delivery device may take and also because these youngsters don’t listen to albums. Buying your kid an LP is out of the question unless your kid is a teenage hipster who has a record player to differentiate him or herself from the earbudded and digitally obsessed masses.

A CD? Forget about it unless your kid’s in college and needs cheap coasters to put their 40-ounce on. Digital and downloadable is pretty much the way to go. Sure, you could buy an iTunes gift card so he or she can pick out whatever. Nothing wrong with that but as with all gift cards, it’s not that personal. Maybe run the risk of buying some music for the kiddos that you think they like and then something

that you think they could/should like. If they’re still at the age where they don’t think of you as an abject embarrassment to every minute of their being, maybe you can even offer to sit down with them and listen to the album with them and they can tell you why they like it, and you can do the same when you have them listen to Willy and the Poor Boys.

If you’re looking for a gift for your significant other and/or close friends, think about buying tickets to a music concert that they’d love to see but might not spend the money for themselves.

If it’s music that you really can’t stand, maybe just buy them the tickets to see Lee Greenwood and accept their thanks.

If it’s music you both love, buy tickets so you can go together. Make a night of it.

Make a road trip of it. It may be just as expensive as that Chinese-made-maplelined electric tie rack you were going to buy them originally but it will last longer in your memories, and it’ll never end up in the trash or re-gifted.

Thursday

The Compost Mountain Boys are doing their bluegrass thing for you tonight at the Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m.

These fellas have been getting folks up and dancing for over 25 years now, and they’re doing it for free tonight. Have a locally crafted beer to get your legs moving, and just know that at least your dancing isn’t as bad as that of the guy next to you in the silly hat.

Friday I’ve been noticing some folks around town wearing some ugly-ass sweaters.

Some of the folks know the sweaters are ugly as sin and are celebrating that fact.

The others ... well, I’m not going to break it to them. Should you still have your ugly sweater on, or what you think is a super sweet sweater — that no one’s ever commented on — head on back to the Mad River Brewery Tap Room at 6 p.m. and see a sea of subtlety-free sweaters while the LaPatinas delight you with songs and stories. It’s free. When you combine Frank Anderson on the harmonica, Mark Jenny on the guitar, and Seabury Gould on piano and guitar, you get Legends of the Mind.

They play some “FUN” acoustic blues

along with some holiday — I mean Christmas-themed songs with some jazz and Americana thrown in for good measure.

They’ll be at the Westhaven Center for the Arts at 7 p.m. with a sliding scale of $5-$10.

After playing its casino gig last weekend, The Trouble is at it again and at the Siren’s Song Tavern in Eureka tonight at 8:30 p.m.

Trouble drummer Sam Kaplan-Good will be doing double duty as his other band Rogues’ Gallery will be on this $5 bill. DJ Dragonfly will be at HumBrews tonight, joined by locals Basstard, Marjo Lak and Andreas with visuals by Marmalade Sky. As Dragonfly asks, “Come. Find and lose yourself” in the music. If you can find yourself, you’re already ahead of me. Make sure you find $10 to get into this 9 p.m. show. Local Pink Floyd tribute Money return to the Wave Lounge in the Blue Lake Casino and Hotel at the same time. The bass player (full disclosure: me) tells me that the band is trying to pull something off tonight

that it has never done and that he doesn’t think any other Floyd cover bands have either, for that matter. It’s a free show and it’s going late. Back in Arcata, The Jam is hosting David Starfire who mixes beats and live instrumentation to get you groovin’ with some Eastern elements thrown in for melodic color. He’s joined by Wu Wei and DJ D’vinity at 9:30 p.m. Ticket prices are $20, but if you bring an unwrapped toy for Toys for Tots, you’ll get $5 off the cover charge. ● Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online.

Bands and promoters, send your gig info, preferably with a high-res photo or two, to music@northcoastjournal.com.

Andy Powell is a congenital music lover and hosts The Night Show on KWPT 100.3 FM weeknights at 6 p.m. He tells people he shops local.

Rough Nights

Office Christmas Party and Nocturnal Animals

By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

OFFICE CHRISTMAS PARTY. In the early going, I had reason to be optimistic, albeit cautiously, that this might join the ranks of the Christmas movie canon. It seemed to be subtly stealing all the right elements from some true classics: Chicago setting and bonuses at risk from Christmas Vacation, office setting gone wrong from Die Hard. The jokes were coming thick and fast, at a pace unparalleled among recent comedies, and the cast featured dead-reliable comedy veterans. But then the influence of too many writers became clear, the movie lost its momentum.

Josh Parker (Jason Bateman) has finally concluded a painful, expensive divorce (from an oddly unseen, unnamed spouse).

Despite this, Josh remains upbeat, cool and sarcastic. It’s Jason Bateman, after all; he’s great but not exactly a chameleon.

Freshly minted divorce papers in hand, he makes his way to work. His job as chief technical officer at Zenotek, a mid-large IT company, keeps him in close quarters with gifted programmer Tracey Hughes (Olivia Munn), with whom he is quietly infatuated, and with branch head Clay Vanstone (T.J. Miller). Clay has taken over management of the office from his late father, who founded the company. He values the quality of life of his employees more than he does profit but, despite his best efforts, both appear to be flagging. This does not go unnoticed by his ambitious, interim CEO sister Carol (Jennifer Aniston), who summarily cancels the office holiday gathering, threatening to shutter the branch entirely if it does not meet a seemingly unattainable earnings goal.

Clay’s solution is to turn the holiday gathering into a monstrous Christmas party and use it to court a representative from a potentially life-changing client. Things get out of hand: A prostitute’s coke stash ends up in the snow machine, penises are made with 3D printers, reindeer drink from toilets.

The cast almost carries this all of by sheer force of will. Kate McKinnon, as the seemingly buttoned-down but actually insane head of HR, steals every scene

with her special brand of nuanced crazy.

Vanessa Bayer and Randall Park attempt an ill-conceived liaison in the daycare room.

Jillian Bell makes the most of an under-developed role as a vicious pimp. Bateman and Munn’s chemistry feels genuine, and both deliver genuinely funny punch lines.

And Miller, who is really at the center of the narrative, is both hilarious and sad as an adult kid who cares too much about everyone else to take care of himself.

The problem here, as is so often the case with comedy, is that the back half of the script loses the punch and polish of the first act, and the movie starts to lean too heavily on the cast. I should have known that the joke pacing was unsustainable. Somewhere along the line, the various threads of the narrative start to separate and the movie becomes focused on the debauchery and its aftermath.

Spoiler alert: it’s not nearly as crazy or out of control as the trailer would have you believe, and the resolution is just as cute and convenient as you would expect. R. 105m. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK.

NOCTURNAL ANIMALS. Maybe I should I have led with this one. Writer/ director/fashion mogul Tom Ford’s first feature since his debut, A Single Man (2009) is a singular, visceral, sumptuous experience that is as engrossing as it is challenging. Adapted from Austin Wright’s novel Tony and Susan, Nocturnal Animals uses an allegorical story within a story to examine the devastation of lost love and the compulsion toward revenge, however futile it may be.

Susan Morrow (Amy Adams), a sleepless art gallery owner with a handsome, dashing husband (Armie Hammer) who carries on affairs, feels alone and unfulfilled; there is a void that her wealth and style and success leave empty. One day, a package arrives from her first husband, Edward (Jake Gyllenhaal). It’s a proof of the novel he has written and dedicated to Susan. With her husband away, she stays up late reading, increasingly troubled by what she finds in the book. As she reads, the events of the novel’s narrative play out onscreen. Tony (Gyllenhaal again) and Lau-

ARRIVAL. Denis Villeneuve’s movie about scholars and soldiers trying to determine the threat level of visiting aliens is exquisitely crafted and acted, and suffused with sadness, hope and joy. Starring Amy Adams, Forest Whitaker and Jeremy Renner. PG13. 116m. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK. CHRISTINE. Based on the grim on-air death of a Florida TV news reporter (Rebecca Hall) with thwarted ambitions and a crumbling personal life. You know, a fun journalism movie. R. 119m. MINIPLEX. DOCTOR STRANGE. Benedict Cumberbatch and Tilda Swinton star in a Marvel movie bogged down by pseudo-philosophy and lifted up by strange and wonderful special effects wizardry. PG13. 120m.

BROADWAY.

A return to American values means we don’t have to call this a “holiday” party.

FANTASTIC BEASTS AND WHERE TO FIND THEM. Director David Yates and company create a vast, fascinating, Potter-esque atmosphere but the action is antic, rambling and insubstantial. Starring Eddie Redmayne. PG13. 133m. BROADWAY, MILL CREEK, MINOR.

ra Hastings (Isla Fisher), with their daughter India (Ellie Bamber) embark on road trip into a desolate part of west Texas. Driving through the night, they come upon some questionable types playing dangerous games on the highway with their GTO. Eventually, the Hastings family is run off the road. Tony is separated from Laura and India, and left in the middle of the desert.

Eventually he makes his way into town and contacts the local sheriff, who in turn brings in detective Bobby Andes (Michael Shannon). The outcome of his investigation is both terrible and inconclusive, and it brings Bobby and Tony together in an irrevocable trust.

As the Hastings family saga plays out, the narrative periodically shifts back to Susan, who looks back on the unpleasant dissolution of her marriage to Edward, some 20 years before. She regrets her handling of the situation and attempts to reach out, but some damage cannot be undone.

Nocturnal Animals is too accomplished and beautiful a thing to cheapen by simply listing its attributes. Its temporal sections are each defined by a rich, distinct tone and color palette: The cool, stark angularity of Susan’s present day world set against the dusty, saturated earth tones of the Hastings narrative and the warmth and closeness of her New York love affair with Edward. The cast as a whole — including a heretofore unmentioned Aaron Taylor-Johnson as a loathsome, calculating sicko — is flawless, unified in telling an intense and gutting story. It is a relatively simple one but told with such attention

to detail, such authenticity and art, that it becomes much bigger and deeper than it might seem at first glance. R. 116m. BROADWAY

PR160347 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, CARY DAVID BELLAK A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Petitioner, MARGARET ANNE BELLAK In the Superior Court of California, County of Humboldt. The petition for probate requests that MARGARET ANNE BELLAK be appointed as personal representa− tive to administer the estate of the decedent.

THE PETITION requests the dece− dent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate. The will and any codicils are available for exami− nation in the file kept by court.

THE PETITION requests authority to administer the estate under the Independent Administration of Estates Act. (This authority will allow the personal representative to take many actions without obtaining court approval. Before taking certain very important actions, however, the personal representative will be required to give notice to interested persons unless they have waived notice or consented to the proposed action.)

The independent administration authority will be granted unless an interested person files an objection to the petition and shows good cause why the court should not grant the authority.

A HEARING on the petition will be held on December 29, 2016 at 2:00 p.m. at the Superior Court of Cali− fornia, County of Humboldt, 825 Fifth Street, Eureka, in Dept.: 8.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objec− tions or file written objections with the court before the hearing. Your appearance may be in person or by your attorney.

IF YOU ARE A CREDITOR or a contingent creditor of the dece− dent, you must file your claim with the court and mail a copy to the personal representative appointed by the court within the later of either (1) four months from the date of first issuance of letters to a general personal representative, as defined in section 58(b) of the Cali− fornia Probate Code, or (2) 60 days from the date of mailing or personal delivery to you of a notice under section 9052 of the California Probate Code. Other California statutes and legal authority may affect your rights as a creditor. You may want to consult with an attorney knowledgeable in Cali− fornia law.

YOU MAY EXAMINE the file kept by the court. If you are a person inter− ested in the estate, you may file with the court a Request for Special Notice (form DE−154) of the filing of an inventory and appraisal of estate assets or of any petition or account as provided in Probate Code section 1250. A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.

Epic Battles

Indoors and outside

By Anthony Westkamper humbug@northcoastjournal.com

Man vs. Fruit Fly

Confined to my house for some weeks by illness, I missed my usual walks along the Van Duzen River. Fortunately for me, there is seldom a shortage of insects wherever I go. While I was more or less bedridden, an inordinate number of tiny flying bugs invaded my home. Although I had no fruit rotting in the house, I was pretty sure they were fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster). Tiny and tan, with ruby red eyes, they are usually drawn to rotting vegetable matter or red wine. I followed them to my currently working batch of sauerkraut. Fortunately, my crock has a water seal that prevented them from getting in and polluting the lot. I set about getting rid of them.

The best method I’ve found so far is to cover the bottom of a small bowl with soapsuds and stick a piece of old fruit (banana seems to work best) in the middle. The little critters try to land on the bubbles, the soap destroys the integrity of the water balance across their skin and they die in seconds. I renew the suds once or twice a day.

And a note to all you rugged outdoorspeople anxious to get out there despite the rains and drizzle, my first two brief outdoor excursions yielded half a dozen glowworms under my redwood trees at night and a tick I picked up while walking along the side of the road. Be careful when you go out — our local ticks flourish in damp weather.

Glowworm vs. Snail

One night I counted four glowworms (Pterotus intergrippinis) under my redwood trees. I have counted as many as 27 in the leaf litter beneath my small 20-footby-50-foot grove. The first ones I ever saw were beneath redwoods at Grizzly Creek Campground.

So far, I’ve seen them in every grove I’ve checked out on nights when the weather and moonlight were ideal. They seem to come out and display their glowing tail segments when it’s dark and drippy. It is on such nights the prey to which they are particularly adapted comes out. They hunt, capture and devour small snails and slugs.

I think I’ve seen about all of the steps.

I suspect they locate their intended prey

by tracking the snail’s slime trail with their short antennae. Once it catches up, the glowworm attaches its caudal appendage to the snail’s shell. This gives it an anchor point from which to stretch out and bite the victim’s soft body, injecting toxic saliva. The snail then reacts violently, often excreting a great mass of sticky clinging bubbles. I’ve been surprised that the snail didn’t just withdraw into its shell as they usually do when disturbed. Instead, it stampeded (well, as much as a snail can stampede) through the tiny world of mosses and grass stems. In one case the snail actually succeed in scraping its tormentor off and escaping. I do not know if the snail survived the toxic bite but after about 10 minutes the worm did succeed in escaping the sticky clinging suds.

When the glowworm is successful, it can take up to three days to clean out the snail’s shell, often glowing eerily, illuminating the hapless mollusk’s shell from the inside.

This drama has played out for millions of years. The power of evolution has adapted the players through a neverending arms race. If my little grove is typical and there are about 1.6 million acres of redwoods, it means there are somewhere between 32 and 216 million Pterotus obscuripennis out there. Considering that their common name is the “Douglas fir glow worm,” and there are probably many more acres of Douglas fir than redwoods, this insect may be incredibly numerous, but they are largely unseen and unknown because who goes out looking for tiny green LED-looking bugs on wet, dark, sloppy nights? Well, me. ●
