Art and Politics Editor: The idea, as espoused in your issue of Nov. 7 (“Love the Alien”), that the fine arts do nothing to inspire lofty seeking, realization and action but only “comment” upon these after the fact is too ludicrous to be borne with equanimity.

Ana Daksina, Eureka Editor: Collin Yeo’s Nov. 7 column was particularly pathetic drivel. Personally, I would have preferred to just ignore Yeo’s ignorance but Yeo’s misuse of the name and legacy of one of my favorite authors in the quote below was just simply too stupid to pass up.

Yeo said, “The only reason I talk about politics so much in a local music column is that I understand, as Gore Vidal did, that politics inform everything. ... The Democrats blame the chimera of Russia for losing...”

Seriously? Invoking the name of the late, great Gore Vidal to justify your own personal delusions, Mr. Yeo? STFU. I assure you, Mr. Yeo, Russia is not illusory, nor is the ongoing threat that the current fascist Russian kleptocracy poses to American democratic institutions. The continuing illegal Russian intervention in the American political system is very much a reality, whether you care to open your eyes or not.

Yes, Gore Vidal was a left wing socialist who was correctly extremely critical of U.S. foreign policy and politics generally, but Vidal was most definitely never a supporter of Soviet totalitarianism (unlike Bernie Sanders, who was a Soviet supporter). Nor was Vidal ever a pro-Russian apologist like so many older, Soviet-era American socialists unfortunately are to this day. Can you say “Bernie Bros?”

Mr. Yeo, I would suggest that in the future you “stick to your lane” when writing your music columns, but based upon the content of your columns, one could hardly consider music to be your lane, either!

Any more recommendations this week for your favorite tone deaf, talentless, neo-yuppie punk bands spending their rich daddy’s money on overpriced musical instruments that they can barely play? After all, why waste thousands from your trust fund on vintage, brand-name musical instruments when you would sound every bit as musically incompetent on the cheaper generic versions?

Speaking of crappy punk rock music, bring back Bob Doran already! And if Gore Vidal were still alive today, he’d probably vote for Elizabeth Warren.

Jake Pickering, Arcata Editor: I write this letter to urge all to vote in the 2020 election, and vote as if your life and the

life of our republic depended on the outcome, because they do. When asked what kind of a government we had just affirmed over 250 years ago, Benjamin Franklin said, “A republic, if we can keep it.” We have kept it from the time Franklin spoke those words but we are at the dark crossroads envisioned by our founders that will, in fact, determine if we can keep our republic in the future.

So I urge all registered voters and those who will register to vote, and to vote for keeping that republic our founding fathers fought so hard to establish. Vote for those who will respect their oath of office to uphold the Constitution and the rule of law.

Vote for those who will not lie to you habitually. Vote for those who will not collude with foreign powers that are adversaries to our nation’s goals in order to secure private gain. Vote for those who are moral and ethical, and have a track record of being so. Vote for those who will represent those who believe in “the common good” for our nation, rather than the good that profits the special interests or those who put up the most money for those representatives’ campaigns. Vote for those who will unite and not divide. Vote for those who will not encourage their staffs to lie to Congress or obstruct the lawful subpoenas to stand before committees to speak the truth. But above all, vote, and show the world what kind of a nation and what kind of people we actually are.

‘Part of the Problem’ Editor: In her letter (Mailbox, Nov. 7) Mary Sanger

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

identifies the Terra-Gen wind farm as “part of the solution.”

Indeed, as demonstrated in the Humboldt County Planning Commission hearing Thursday night, the opposing opinions are framing themselves as a “Sophie’s Choice” dilemma: Protect our precious local habitat and culture vs. make a sacrifice and be part of the solution.

But Terra-Gen is not part of the solution.

It is a subsidiary of Energy Capital Partners.

Other subsidiaries include Furie Operating Alaska, Targa Resources, Triton Power Partners, U.S. Development Group Summit Midstream Partners and more. These companies all engage in fossil fuel extraction: fracking, pipelines, crude oil terminals, shale oil, gas extraction platforms in the Arctic, you name it. They are all looking for opportunities to expand and the political climate for this is favorable.

Profits from Terra-Gen’s services to Humboldt can flow right back into these other subsidiaries. They might be subsidizing the administration’s plan to open the Arctic for drilling or financing a private security firm to protect a pipeline. In this way, we will be contributing to climate breakdown. We will be part of the problem.

The objection to Terra-Gen is not simply a repudiation of the corporate ideology. It is a recognition that the net effects of the wind farm project will likely increase greenhouse gases.

Far better to humbly fly less, carpool,

make trails, take care of our people, continue doggedly in our attempts to influence national policy and wrack our brains for more solutions.

Ellen Taylor, Petrolia

We’re Going to Need a Bigger Room Editor: Last Thursday, when the Humboldt County Planning Commission held its meeting to receive public input on the Terra-Gen wind farm proposal, the room proved to be too small for all the adults who made the effort to arrive at the courthouse. Many folks ended up standing outside the meeting room.

Since this proposal had been the topic of intense debate the last six months, it is easy to understand that many citizens wanted to hear firsthand the discussion. This proposal will impact our county for the next 30 years, at least. Due to the seriousness of the topic, I believe we citizens deserve the opportunity to “be in the room where it happens,” as Alexander Hamilton would say. I know there is a large, spacious room in the courthouse where summoned adults gather to be orientated to jury duty. This room is much more adequate and can comfortably hold a much larger crowd. If, like me, you feel we deserve a larger room for the next meeting set for

Nov. 14, please call the Planning and Building Department office at 445-7541.

My Friend is Wrong Editor: Barry Evans and I are friends. We both know that scientific truth is derived at by experimentation and lively debate. You recently published a response of his (Mailbox, Nov. 7) to a letter I had written in response

to “Mirror Universes”( Oct. 24). What I wrote was, “When it comes to living systems, the universe is not tending toward chaos at all, but rather, it is highly ordered and organized.”

Barry left out the bit about “living system,” which changes the content of the sentence completely.

My point was that living systems are doing the exact opposite of what the universe is doing. The universe is heading toward chaos, living systems are moving toward order. This

in Taoism is yin and yang, the dynamic balance between order and chaos. Physics sees life as a mistake that occurs by a series of random interactions. The universe is lifeless, life is a fluke and at some point the universe is going to run out of energy. And physicists see life as something that is outside of the making of the universe. Anyone who studies life sciences knows that there is something very special about life. The Buddha said that the greatest mystery in the universe is life

itself. Who can argue with that.

A

fter workers discovered a failing culvert on Briceland Thorn Road just west of Redway, State Parks and Humboldt County Public Works decided to upgrade the only detour: Old Briceland Road.

When those improvements — currently underway — are completed later this month, Briceland Thorn Road — one of the most traveled rural roads in Humboldt County — will then be closed for repairs.

Commuters, schools, residents, emergency vehicles and delivery trucks will all be affected as thousands of trips through the area are rerouted each day for the estimated two weeks needed to complete the work.

Steve Finch, the county’s road division manager, estimates each day sees some 2,000 vehicle trips over the road, which serves Shelter Cove and Whitethorn, among other coastal communities. When heavy rains drench the ground this winter, the damaged culvert, which is approximately 1.5 miles west of Redwood Drive, could completely fail and compel a longterm closure of the road, he said, forcing all that traffic to come to a screeching halt or be diverted across Old Briceland Road, which had fallen into disrepair.

Supervisor Estelle Fennell, whose district encompasses the affected area, agreed that the road across the culvert is vulnerable. “We want to avoid a catastrophic failure in the middle of winter,” she said. “[The culvert repair] has to happen and it will be much shorter if we fix it now.”

Now the race against the coming winter rains is on.

The first step, according to Finch, is to pour approximately $600,000 of reconstruction work into Old Briceland Road.

“Some areas are being completely repaved and other areas are just having spot paving

done,” he said. “We’re putting out about 3,000 yards of hot mix.”

After the repairs are finished, Old Briceland Road will not have any stretches of dirt left. “Any vehicle,” he said, “is going to be able to go across the road” once repairs are completed. And, Finch said, the road “should be in good shape” for the residents who live along it after the need for a detour has ended.

Marianne Odisio, who drives Old Briceland Road almost daily for her job delivering mail, reports that construction has already begun, describing it as a “real transformation.”

“I hate seeing the bush bunny habitat destroyed but my truck’s suspension has been getting a break,” she said. Odisio worries that animals in the area are in for a rough time as traffic surges through the detour after the upgrade is complete and while repairs are being done to the main road. She wanted to warn drivers to be careful as they make their way through the working cattle ranch that lines much of the road.

“The cattle normally have a very serene life there,” she said, pointing out that it is also calving season.

“For the first few days of a calf’s life, they are pretty clueless about vehicles,” she said. “Sometimes … a newborn calf will be standing on its wobbly little newborn legs in the middle of the road and you will have to slow down or stop until they get safely out of your way.”

Odisio also worries about the deer, the cats and the dogs in the neighborhood that are not used to so much traffic. She asks travelers using the detour to please keep the animals in mind. Odisio also asks folks to keep an eye out for her as she delivers the mail along the narrow roadway.

After the more than 7 miles of Old Briceland Road are repaired, work will begin on the Briceland Thorn Road. Those repairs will be mostly handled by contractors working for the state, according to Finch.

School bus service for the students who travel into Miranda will not be available past the detour, said Karl Terrell, transportation director for Southern Humboldt Unified School District. During a Nov. 7 interview, he said more than 30 students will likely be affected by the decision. The current plan is to have parents meet the bus in Garberville at 7:20 a.m. while the detour is in place.

Humboldt County Public Works will attempt to mitigate the situation as much as possible, Finch said. “We’ll run pilot cars 24/7 from each side,” he explained. “Traffic will be running both directions.” He acknowledged the road is narrow but said, “there are places [traffic] can pass on some

of the wider sections.” He said travelers should expect delays of up to an hour.

Cheryl Antony, spokesperson for the Shelter Cove Volunteer Fire Department, worries about the extended response times.

“It will mean the ambulance will be delayed,” she said. “Any kind of trip will be delayed by quite a bit.”

The county is working to minimize issues for emergency vehicles, Finch said, adding “emergency traffic will have priori-

ty. … If there is an ambulance coming out, all traffic stops and the ambulance goes.”

Finch said the last time Briceland Thorn had to be shut down “we had a lot of issues with flaggers being threatened.” But the plan is to have extra law enforcement in place to assist workers.

“State Parks is going to have their rangers out as often as they can,” he said.

“Hopefully, there will be law enforcement where needed.”

Once begun, construction work on

Briceland Thorn Road will go around the clock, Fennell said. “It is a gigantic project [and] time is of the essence … .”

Finch says he hopes to have the start date for when the detour will begin soon but he speculated that travelers might expect to have to deal with the situation beginning around Nov. 22. l Editor’s note: This story first appeared at www.kymkemp.com on Nov. 8 and is reprinted here with permission.

WEEK IN WEED

One Plant, Two Names, Multiple Laws Supes set to wrestle with hemp ordinance in age of cannabis

By Thadeus Greenson thad@northcoastjournal.com

S

itting in the lobby of his brand-new storefront on Arcata’s H Street, Humboldt CBD CEO Joshua Hanna opens a jar and rolls a golf ball-sized cannabis bud into his hand. The dense flower is a deep, vibrant green with a pungent smell. The strain, he explains, is AppleEase, a new cross of a HarleTsu, which he says was one of the world’s first high CBD strains and was created right here in Humboldt County by Lawrence Ringo, a longtime cultivator mythically referred to as the “king of CBD genetics.”

The bud looks similar to those on offer in cannabis dispensaries and growing in greenhouses throughout the county and the state. But it’s not. It is comprised of less

than 0.3 percent THC — the principal psychoactive compound in cannabis — making it, by definition, hemp. That also makes it currently illegal to grow in most of Humboldt County.

Hanna wants to change that last part and is busily lobbying elected officials and cannabis farmers ahead of Nov. 19’s Humboldt County Board of Supervisors meeting, when the board is expected to again consider a countywide hemp cultivation ordinance and may follow the planning commission’s recommendation to extend a cultivation moratorium amid concerns from the larger cannabis industry.

“I believe that boutique hemp is the future of medicine and it started here in

Humboldt County, and it would be a historic tragedy if we weren’t able to participate,” Hanna says.

The situation is extremely complicated.

Up until late last year, cannabis was illegal on a federal level but legalized in California and a host of other states. The landscape was convoluted and irrational, but generally understandable. Then late last year, Congress passed the Farm Bill with a rider that removed hemp from the federal Controlled Substances Act, making it federally legal to grow, manufacture, distribute and sell cannabis so long as it doesn’t contain more than 0.3 percent THC. All of a sudden, state, federal and local laws laws — already in conflict — began treating varietals of the same plant very differently.

When most people think of hemp, they picture spindly, largely bud-less plants used to harvest fiber, oil and seeds. And to be sure, the bulk of the hemp grown in the United States fits that description.

But the seemingly meteoric rise in the popularity of cannabidiol products is changing that. Commonly known as CBD, canabidiol is a naturally occurring compound that’s one of more than 100 phytocannabinoids found in cannabis flowers. CBD has been loosely linked to successful treatments of

everything from autoimmune diseases and seizure disorders to neurological conditions, acne, anxiety and cancer. Written up in publications from Goop to the Washington Post, it has become a full-blown wellness craze. And a multi-billion-dollar industry.

It’s worth making very clear here that despite the hype — and largely due to longstanding federal prohibition, which has limited scientific study — most of the claims regarding CBD’s health benefits have not been vetted. Nonetheless, studies project that within the next five years CBD product sales will pass $20 billion annually in the United States.

Throughout the country, lots of farms are planting hemp, looking to supply all the CBD concentrates needed for the tinctures, salves and balms that are suddenly filling the shelves of national chains. But not all hemp is created equal.

The vast majority harvested for CBD products is grown as a commodity, planted on large industrial farms and harvested using heavy machinery. The biomass is then ground and churned before going through a chemical solvent extraction process that yields CBD concentrate.

But Hanna argues that stuff can’t hold a candle to the CBD extract produced from

artisanal hemp flowers — the kind that can only be grown with care, stellar and a wealth of knowledge about cannabis cultivation.

He argues it’s kind of like the difference between smoking some crappy bammer weed and some of Humboldt County’s finest, saying he hears from customers who buy his company’s pre-rolls and tinctures that there’s a night-and-day difference from the mass produced stuff available elsewhere.

Allowing boutique, small-scale hemp cultivation in the county could prove an economic boon, Hanna says, positing that the same depth of genetic knowledge that created some of these low-THC strains in the first place could take them to new levels, giving Humboldt a leg up in a rapidly expanding market.

“We’re basically saying no to an evolutionary branch of cannabis,” he says. “This is real medicine and right now Humboldt is getting left in the dust. I think people are being very short-sighted.”

But the larger cannabis industry has some grave concerns, which prompted the planning commission to recommend the board of supervisors continue the current prohibition on hemp cultivation in Humboldt County. (It should be noted that while there is currently a moratorium on hemp

cultivation in Humboldt County’s unincorporated areas, it does not seem to apply to licensed cannabis farms under the current regulatory framework, which does not, apparently, prohibit them from growing strains containing less than 0.3 percent THC.) While the industry’s greatest concern seems to be the risk of cross pollination — cannabis farmers want to harvest un-pollenated female flowers, which are more potent, and fear pollen drift from industrial hemp farms’ male or hermaphroditic plants.

Humboldt County Grower’s Alliance Executive Director Terra Carver says her organization is supporting the planning commission’s recommended prohibition.

“Having participated in every public meeting and hearing from our membership, the consequences of cross pollination and increased pest impacts are too high to risk on a market that is collapsing from over production in year one,” Carver says.

When county staff first researched the issue, it proposed letting people grow hemp largely in the county’s agricultural zones, which would have opened up more than 25,000 acres to cultivation. But in addition to the fears of direct impacts on traditional cannabis farms, some also raised concerns about the cumulative environ-

mental impacts — which were a huge point of contention when the county passed its cannabis land use ordinance.

“Without proper regulation,” Carver continued, “the impacts to the community and environment cannot be dismissed. The fish don’t care if the plant is psychoactive or not, the water use is the same and the smell factor during the growing period is also the same, regardless if the end product gets you high.”

There’s also seemingly an unspoken equity issue at play in much of these discussions, as the licensed cannabis industry is one of the most regulated in the world, with cultivators facing steep costs for compliance, permitting and taxes. Growing industrial hemp locally would, in contrast, allow farmers to enter legal markets with comparatively minimal overhead and potentially solid profits. (Hanna says he pays his farm the equivalent of $1,600 a pound for CBD-rich hemp grown on one of five state-registered farms located in incorporated areas of Humboldt County.)

After all, federal prohibitions and constraints — including those on the financial industry — no longer apply to hemp.

“We get paid with checks and use regular banks,” Hanna says, adding that he suspects

that may engender some animosity from those in California’s regulated cannabis industry.

Humboldt County Agricultural Commissioner Jeff Dolf says the situation is complicated. On the one hand, he said the risk posed to the larger cannabis industry through cross pollination is real, but he’s also talked to folks who have made a compelling case that limiting farms to small footprints and requiring they purchase only female clones or feminized seeds could mitigate that. If the county does proceed to allow hemp cultivation, Dolf says his office would have to purchase field testing kits they could use to do compliance checks, ensuring no one registered to cultivate hemp is actually growing a higher-THC variety.

“This is all done in the context that there’s not a lot of good, peer-reviewed research that supports sound public policy,” he says. “I mean, it’s the same plant.

Sometimes, I just prefer the term low-THC cannabis to hemp.” l Thadeus Greenson is the Journal’s news editor. He prefers he/him pronouns and can be reached at 442-1400, extension 321, or thad@northcoastjournal.com. Follow him on Twitter @thadeusgreenson.

Teen Surfers Rescue Two Swept Out

by Rip in Trinidad

F

our teenage surfers came to the rescue of a 15 year old and 20 year old who were in severe distress Nov. 11 after being swept out by a rip current off Trinidad State Beach.

According to Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Samantha Karges, a call came in around 1:30 p.m. reporting that the swimmers, both from Shasta County, were in trouble.

The surfers — off-duty California State Parks lifeguard Adrian York, and Spenser Stratton, Taj Ortiz-Beck and Narayan Weibel, two of whom were junior lifeguard participants — were able to put the swimmers on their boards and bring them safely to shore in teams of two.

At 16, York just made the minimum age cutoff to become a lifeguard and was recently certified after undergoing rigorous training with five others from the North Coast down in Huntington Beach.

“We’re are very proud,” says Keven Harden, a supervising ranger at Patrick’s Point State Park who oversees the junior lifeguard program. “To see this ending. ...

This was our vision of the program.”

York, he says, swam back to shore to make sure 911 was called before heading back out to the swimmers.

Harder says the water was around 50 degrees that day, making survival extremely difficult even for the best of swimmers without the right gear.

“That takes the fight right out of you,” he says, adding that he was among the first responders, arriving at the scene

within six minutes of the 911 call. “We were relieved to see our own kids were there already having made the rescue.”

Harder says he talked with one of the swimmers afterward, who said he was barely able to keep his mouth above water when the teens arrived on their boards.

“They were very close (to not making it),” he says.

He and Karges noted that dangerous water conditions can occur at any time.

“If it were not for these heroic surfers, this event may have ended tragically,” she wrote in an email to the Journal.

Antonio Llanos, who was at the beach with his daughter, says he called 911 after hearing shouts for help coming from the water as the the surfers began heading out to the distressed pair, who were about 50 feet offshore and past the breakers.

Llanos says the surfers were out by Trinidad Head and had to paddle several hundred yards to reach them.

“They were definitely struggling to get in and they were not getting in, but the fog made it really hard to see what was going on,” he says.

Llanos says another person who was on the beach donned a wetsuit and also headed out to the distressed swimmers, who were dressed in shorts and T-shirts not meant for the cold temperatures of the North Coast’s water.

While he spoke with a dispatcher, who stayed on the line with him, Llanos watched the rescue unfold, noting he called 911 right away because he knew time

ON THE COVER

GREEN VERSUS GREEN A controversial wind energy project has self-proclaimed environmentalists turning on one another

Bear River Ridge, known as Tsakiyuwit in Wiyot Courtesy of the Wiyot Tribe

By Elaine Weinreb

newsroom@northcoastjournal.com

T

wo public forums held earlier this month on the proposed Terra-Gen Wind Generation Project covered the same topics but the moods were radically different. The first meeting, a Nov. 6 panel discussion sponsored by the Schatz Energy Research Center at Humboldt State University, was calm and rational in tone, attracting nearly a thousand people to the large auditorium in Founders Hall. At the second meeting, a public hearing held the next day by the Humboldt County Planning Commission, the mood was intense and sometimes angry among the hundreds of people who crowded into the Board of Supervisors Chamber, some waiting up to five hours for their turn to speak.

The project was first brought to public attention in May, when Terra-Gen, LLC unveiled its proposal to tap the winds that rush across Bear River and Monument ridges south of Rio Dell and Scotia. The wind would be captured by about 50 giant wind turbines, each 600 feet tall, lining the

12

top of the ridges. They would be mounted to concrete pads, each one occupying several acres. A huge power line, called a gen-tie, would march down the hillside and cross the Eel River, where it would plug into PG&E’s grid at the Bridgeville power substation.

The turbines would be barged into Humboldt Bay, brought ashore at Fields Landing, driven down U.S. Highway 101 to Pepperwood and transported up the ridge on improved secondary roads.

Trees under the power lines and in the vicinity of the turbines would be clearcut, and vegetation would have to be removed to make way for widened roads.

The project is controversial. Proponents say it could supply a substantial proportion of the clean, renewable energy Humboldt County has committed to using and acquiring in order to combat climate change. Opponents say that, realistically, most of the wind energy would leave the county, while the project would result in massive environmental damage to an area

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

that is sacred to the Wiyot Tribe, hosts a whole array of rare or threatened life forms, and that could be made especially vulnerable to forest fires.

Terra-Gen owns numerous California wind generation plants, all of which are located in deserts and plains, with none in forested mountains. The company is owned by Equity Capital Partners, a private firm that owns power plants all over North America, including coal and natural gas-fired plants, as well as wind, solar and geothermal facilities.

“We are a wind generation business and there needs to be wind,” said Terra-Gen Senior Director for Wind Development Nathan Vajdos at HSU, explaining why the company had chosen Humboldt for its proposed wind farm.

He listed the benefits the project would bring to the area.

“We would immediately become the second largest taxpayer in the county,” he said. “We would offer a large number of construction jobs and a smaller number

of permanent jobs. We’re going to reduce greenhouse gas; the equivalent of taking 82,000 cars off the road.”

Terra-Gen also hopes to improve the stability of the electrical grid by making millions of dollars in improvements, called Reliability Network Upgrades.

“Will we have impacts?” asked Vajdos.

“Yes. The process that guides us through that, by law, which we know well, is CEQA [the California Environmental Quality Act].

You identify the impacts, and you avoid, minimize and mitigate for those impacts.

We follow the law and we rely upon the guidance of the county.”

Environmental Protection Information Center (EPIC) Executive Director Tom Wheeler said he is deeply concerned about the project’s effects upon wildlife.

The California Energy Commission together with the California Department of Fish and Wildlife came up with a rating system for energy project sites, he explained, with “1” being great, for example, an area with other wind turbines already in place, and

“4” being terrible, because it is pristine and home to endangered species.

“No. 4 sites are deemed inappropriate for wind energy development,” Wheeler said. “Here, the project site that has been chosen is a Site 4.”

The site would result in the devastation of large numbers of hoary bats, and also affect endangered species like the marbled murrelet and the northern spotted owl, Wheeler said.

Wiyot Tribe botanist Adam Canter, lugging a huge green binder of archaeological site records, said the project would cause irreparable harm to the cultural artifacts of the tribe. Many different tribal people have used Bear River Ridge — Tsakiyuwit, in Wiyot — over the course of centuries and he said it should be on the National Register of Historic Places. The ridge is also a high prayer site to the tribe, a place where a large expanse of its ancestral territory can be viewed.

The prairies are pristine and beautiful, Canter said, rich with flowering bulbs that are officially listed as California rare plants, and others that were an important food source to the Wiyot people.

Canter pointed out that in terms of reducing greenhouse gases, the existing redwood forests and native grasslands in the area are excellent carbon sinks, part of the “lungs of the Pacific northwest.”

Donna Wright, chief executive officer of the Greater Eureka Chamber of Commerce said her agency supported all kinds of economic growth, especially those involving renewable energy, such as Terra-Gen. Panelist Lori Biondini represented the Redwood Coast Energy Authority (RCEA), a joint powers agency that seeks to reduce energy demand, increase energy efficiency

and meet state requirements regarding renewable energy use. The agency supports both onshore and offshore wind energy projects, and many Humboldt residents buy their electricity from them, even though the bill comes from PG&E. The community, Biondini said, has decided to prioritize local energy production so that it will have more control over its grid and its impacts. But RCEA’s ability to push these types of projects is limited.

“RCEA is not sitting on a bunch of cash reserves,” she said. “We don’t have money at this point to build projects. RCEA issued a request for proposals for electricity generation to project developers throughout the state and the only local proposed project was Terra-Gen’s.”

Members of the audience then got a chance to ask questions. In response to one, Vajdos told the crowd that he understands that redwood forests are the “churches” of local people — a remark that would be lobbed back at him the following day.

Confused by rumors that locally produced electricity would stay here in Humboldt instead of wandering out into the great electrical void of California, the Journal reached out to RCEA Executive Director Matthew Marshall for an explanation, basically asking how PG&E knew the ancestry of the electrons it delivers and whether the company can keep local electrons local.

Marshall explained that, at least right now, all the electricity in the state goes into one big pool, or market. If a community agency like RCEA wants renewable energy, it takes the power that it needs from the larger pool but writes its check to an individual renewable energy comContinued on next page »

pany that produces the power via wind, sun or geothermal energy. If Terra-Gen gets to build its project, RCEA would start paying them for its power, even though it comes via PG&E and there’s currently no way to determine exactly where and how electrons used locally are generated.

Eventually, enough improvements may be made to the Bridgeville substation to wall Humboldt County off from the rest of the state grid, if desired. In that case, Terra-Gen electrons would first fill Humboldt’s needs but if there were a surplus due to an especially windy day, the electricity could travel to other areas.

But that’s all speculative at this point, Marshall said, as there’s nothing in Terra-Gen’s proposal to isolate Humboldt County from the rest of PG&E’s statewide grid, so this shouldn’t be seen as a silver bullet to protect against future PG&E Public Safety Power Shutoffs, which caused two 24-plus hour blackouts locally last month.

The day after the forum at HSU, people flooded into the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors Chambers to hear the county planning commission take up the project for the first time. They filled the chamber, lined the aisles and walls, with some spilling into the lobby.

State law regarding environmental documents is complex, but for large projects, two main documents are required: a highly detailed Draft Environmental Report (DEIR), which gives the meat of the project and describes what possible environmental impacts are likely to result from it, and a Final Environmental Report (FEIR), which consists of comments from community members and organizations, the responses to these comments and any proposed mitigations (ways in which the project’s harmful effects can be reduced).

It’s up to the planning commission to decide whether to issue a conditional use permit for the project, which would pave the way for Terra-Gen to begin seeking the numerous permits from various agencies needed to begin construction.

In weighing this decision, the commission will be relying heavily on the DEIR and FEIR, which outline the project’s impacts and mitigation measures necessary to bring them below a level of “significance.”

Down the line, anyone disagreeing with county staff’s findings in the EIR can file a lawsuit to dispute them and any planning commission decision is appealable to the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors.

Usually FEIRs are skinny documents but this one stretches thousands of pages long and was released to the public — and the planning commission — only a few days before the Nov. 7 meeting. It contained comments from 244 individual citizens

14

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

and several federal and state agencies, cities, tribes and environmental organizations, as well as several lengthy scientific documents submitted by readers. The vast majority of written comments opposed the project.

The commission meeting began with a detailed description of the project by the staff and Vajdos, which spanned more than two hours. Many changes had been made in the project since the DEIR was released in May. Generally speaking, the project has been downsized and now includes 47 turbines while the initial plans allowed for up to 60. Vajdos said the downsizing has rendered the project only marginally economical.

The planning commissioners then revealed their ex parte communications — private meetings, conversations and emails between themselves and other people who have a stake in the outcome of the project or opinions about it.

Five of the seven commissioners indicated they had shared coffee, meals and conversations with Terra-Gen staff.

Terra-Gen’s local liaison, Natalynne DeLapp, used to work at EPIC and several commissioners described her as a personal friend. Third District Commissioner Noah Levy said Terra-Gen staff had taken him and other interested stakeholders on a helicopter trip, flying over the ridge to view the project area.

At-large Commissioner Melanie McCavour said she had not had coffee with project applicants, although she had invited the author of the EIR to a class on environmental assessment she teaches at HSU and the topic of Terra-Gen had come up.

“I haven’t been bribed,” she said. “I had no helicopter rides. I am friends with Natalynne DeLapp and have had several conversations with her about wind energy in the past, but not specifically about the details of this project. I have personally driven down to the site on my own.”

Fifth District Commissioner Peggy O’Neill said she received one phone call from the project applicants but told them she preferred to wait until the public meeting to discuss the issues.

Levy said he was intrigued by Vajdos’ revelation that the project would only be marginally profitable and asked if the county had received any financials from the company, wondering aloud if the company could afford to do any further mitigations if its margin was so slim. Planning Director John Ford responded that no financials have been received.

At-large Commissioner Brian Mitchell said he had not received the huge FEIR until that morning and did not want to ask questions until he’d had time to read

Courtesy of Terra-Gen it. Ford assured him that there would be plenty of opportunities in the future to discuss the project.

McCavour asked numerous questions about the biological mitigations proposed in the EIR and wondered about the relative carbon costs of cutting down forests that would otherwise stand for 80 years. Staff indicated it believes the project would have a net carbon benefit.

Then, for the next two hours, the public got its chance to speak, lining up by the dozens. Very few people expressed approval of the project but those who did said that the dire climate emergency facing the planet demands sacrifices from us all.

Larry Goldberg, a member of the climate action group 350 Humboldt and RCEA’s community advisory committee, said he’s a 41-year resident of Humboldt County and a life-long environmentalist, who has advocated solar power since the late 1970s.

“In the past week, 11,000 scientists have told us that we are going to be facing untold suffering due to climate crisis,” he said. “We are in a climate crisis right now and it’s only going to get worse. It’s a stark warning that’s coming to the world and unless we act immediately and decisively locally, the future may be ever increasing sea levels, drought, wildfire, insect outbreaks and widespread tree die-offs.”

Speaking to those who have proposed adding solar panels to every home and building in the county as an alternative, Goldberg said he has a solar system at his home, which cost $50,000 to install. Outfitting the county would cost billions, he said, while we need to “reduce our carbon footprint today.”

“We have to start looking at climate change as a crisis,” he said.

But the line of reasoning that the climate crisis demands sacrifice from all did not go over well with some tribal members, who pointed out that historically it has always been Native land that

is sacrificed; that their culture had lived in harmony with nature and had not created the climate crisis; and that the decision to build this project was being made by white people.

“Terra-Gen and the Chamber of Commerce folks tell the Wiyot that they recognize their cultural resources are going to be impacted and they are very sorry but we have to face the fact that our industrial culture created this and you and your land stand in the way. Once again, progress. Sound like a familiar story?” one man asked rhetorically. “It’s 2019, and I ask, ‘Have we taken enough from them?’

We have a climate crisis and we need to do something about it but we need to do something based on the principles of climate justice, where we do not place the burden of alternative energy projects like this on those that did not create the problem.”

Geneva Thompson, associate general counsel for the Yurok Tribe, began her comments by acknowledging the meeting was taking place on Wiyot land.

“I am also here to express the Yurok Tribe’s support of our neighbors, the Wiyot Tribe, and the Wiyot Tribe’s opposition to this project,” she said. “We oppose this project because the FEIR has failed to provide adequate mitigation measures to avoid the significant impacts to Wiyot cultural resources, cultural landscapes and the California condors. … The condor has been spiritually tied to the Yurok ceremonies since the beginning of the world. Its feathers are used and its songs are sung in the World Renewal Ceremony in which the Yurok people pray and fast to balance the world.”

There were vast numbers of reasons why people oppose the project. Simplest and easiest to understand were ranchers and retirees whose pastoral lifestyles would become industrialized and who feared for the loss of both their serenity

and their property values. Many residents of Scotia and Rio Dell fell into this category, and both the city of Rio Dell and the town of Scotia oppose the project.

Many people pointed out that the serene-looking windmills would take on a different appearance at night, when federally-required red flashing lights would strobe from the tops of the towers, potentially bringing light pollution to the area, disorienting drivers and shining into people’s bedrooms.

Others said they are appalled by the loss of life that would occur — not human life, but life nonetheless. One person cited a study showing that 21,000 bats could be killed during the 30-year life of the project.

People questioned the veracity and accuracy of the scientific studies that Terra-Gen quotes in its document, and whether the mitigations proposed had any real value. One mitigation, for example, proposes mass poisoning of the rodents on which hawks and eagles feed in order to discourage the large birds from staying in the project location. This, a critic charged, could destroy the entire food chain.

Many people also expressed concerns about fire, worrying both about the project’s powerful transmission lines that would cross trees and brush, and about the windmills themselves, which have a reputation for catching fire in other areas.

Others wondered how much power the

county would really have to monitor these mitigation measures once the project was built. They pointed out that multi-billion dollar corporations sometimes thumb their noses at county regulations, knowing they can out-spend local governments in court cases.

Others wondered if the project was really going to eliminate greenhouse gases, since entire swaths of forest, which are carbon sinks, would have to be clearcut, while native grassland, also carbon sinks, would be covered with acres of concrete pads.

Others wondered about the effects of the turbines on the microclimate of the area. The ridges are where the clouds form that carry moisture in from the ocean.

These clouds drift down into the valleys and become the fog banks that provide the redwoods with moisture during the dry summer months. Would the 600-foottall wind turbines interfere with cloud formation?

“Research has shown that turbines reduce humidity and dry out soils downwind from the turbine sites,” said Canter, of the Wiyot Tribe. “What’s downwind from these turbine sites? Humboldt Redwoods State Park. Grizzly Creek Pamplin Grove.

These groves store more carbon than any other forest type in the world.”

As the evening drew on, the public became more caustic. One woman reminded Vajdos that he had compared the redwood

forests to churches the previous evening.

“Are you going to go back to San Diego and pull down a church there to put up a wind turbine?” she taunted.

Another woman suggested that if people were genuinely serious about stopping climate change, they would stop driving, stop buying and grow all their food locally.

“This is too big a decision for an unelected body to make,” said McKinleyville resident Ken Miller. “This affects the whole county. The planning commission should deny the permits. Let Terra-Gen appeal the results and bring it before the board of supervisors, which consists of elected officials. Let them decide it.”

When the last speaker finished around 9 p.m., Ford said the hearing would be continued on Nov. 14 and, if necessary, again to Nov. 21. That would give everybody more time to read the documents and give other members of the public a chance to speak.

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

The pizza restaurant that once was Eureka’s Big Louie’s, then Marcelli’s, has been repainted an eye-popping green and reopened as Shenanigans (1604 Fourth St.). Given its name and pedigree (owner Kelly Erben runs Gallagher’s Irish Pub), you wouldn’t be crazy for thinking this is an Irish bar, but it’s a pizza joint. Listen, the Romans never did conquer ancient Hibernia (what’s up, Agricola?) so there’s no point in putting up an Italian flag on Irish turf now.

If there is such a thing as the debatable luck of the Irish, Shenanigans might not have it — its grand opening was nixed by the first PG&E shutdown and its rescheduled ribbon cutting was Oct. 25, just ahead of the second blackout. What the place

does have is an honest to God handtossed crust that has a chewy pull, is crisp on the bottom and ringed with a pebbled, bubbly edge that I will straight take from your plate if you put it down for more than five seconds because I’m sorry that is the law. You will be asked what kind of crust you want — “thick” hand-tossed or “thin” rolled — and you want the handtossed. These pizzas also come in four sizes, the largest of which is a reasonable 18 inches.

There are typical build-your-own options and the house leans toward a saucy pie; order accordingly. But the specialty pizzas are decidedly non-traditional, like the sweet and salty Pig and Goat, with green apple, sausage and goat cheese ($19 for a 14-inch pie). It follows that the

best among the pizzas at the place with the Irish name would be the Fat Greek ($19 for a 14-inch pie). Would we say fat, though? This is looking very Mediterranean diet, seeing as it’s well covered with feta cheese, spinach leaves, artichoke hearts, strips of sundried tomato, kalamata olives and pesto. The crust, a pleasure on its own, is up to the bevy of tart, tangy flavors. Just don’t put it down for too long.

Coastal Comforts Maybe you’ve sat in the maroon vinyl booth seats at 1134 Fifth St. in Eureka before — when it was a Mexican restaurant, then a barbecue joint, then another Mexican place. But for the last month, it’s been Los Sinaloenses.

It’s named for the people of the coastal region of Mexico just inside the Gulf of California, the ancestral home of the owners, the Leyva family. That means you should probably order some seafood.

The mojarra frita, a small, silver fish native to Mexico, fits the bill well ($10). Scored, seasoned and fried, the skin is rendered a crispy brown and the light white meat is flaky and lovely inside. It comes with a side of rice and beans that you might want to sample first if, like me, you cannot resist using your fingers to pull morsels of fish and crusty, salty bits of skin from the base of the dorsal fin, behind the head and anywhere else a fork would only hamper you.

Another regional specialty to try is the white menudo, a pale, stripped down and barely salted version of the typically red tripe and hominy soup ($4 cup, $7 bowl).

It’s all the comfort of the classic hang-

over remedy without the heat (though my dining companion reminds me the chile-induced sweating might be curative, too). A side of the soft, homemade tortillas should level you out either way. (In Sinaloa, according to server Maria Leyva, it’s often served with buttered bread, so lobby for adding that to the menu if it speaks to you.)

The beef birria tacos are absent from the printed menu — ask for them ($3.75 each). The tender shreds of stewed meat are tucked in a homemade corn tortilla with cheese grilled onto the inside because that is some people’s love language.

This is topped with onion and cilantro, as well as a drizzle of intense birria consomé, the product of hours-long cooking. Lean down and eat over your plate — every bite will release heady, salty broth you will not want to waste.

Did you miss Sunday dinner? Consider the house barbacoa, cooked in the style of Sinaloa, with its hunks of falling apart beef, tomatoes, olives, peppers and yellow potatoes doused in rich, all-day stewed consomé ($11). Dredge the pliant tortillas in it. Ask for a spoon, if you need one. l Share your tips about What’s Good at local eateries with Jennifer Fumiko Cahill, arts and features editor at the Journal.

FRONT ROW

Christian Rock

Jesus Christ Superstar at NCRT

By David Jervis

frontrow@northcoastjournal.com

B

efore Evita, before Cats, before becoming a household name from the West End to Broadway, Andrew Lloyd Webber made a mark a half-century back in the nascent genre of rock opera. Along with his career collaborator lyricist Tim Rice, he wrote Jesus Christ Superstar, now a long way from its point of origin but lively as ever as North Coast Repertory Theatre’s latest production.

When it debuted, Jesus Christ Superstar was quite controversial and also massively popular, and it has lasted through the decades, drawing from several of the gospels to tell a story of the final days of Jesus. Its endurance has to do with the fact that it can be staged as a very ambitious production heavy on detail or mounted on a smaller scale, and is almost always done in some degree of modern dress, which is undertaken here with great flair by director Calder Johnson and costume designer Olivia Gambino.

Additionally, one need not be fully familiar with the details of the four canonical gospels, the makeup of the Sanhedrin or such matters to follow the story. The play’s success in the 1970s came largely from songs (like “I Just Don’t Know How to Love Him”) that were breakout pop hits on their own, something at which Webber and Rice would prove monstrously (use whichever definition of that word you see fit in this case) adept in the course of their careers.

Also of note is that perhaps the best role in the play, both in dramatic range and other small ways, almost inarguably belongs to Judas Iscariot. Played here quite impressively by newcomer Holly Couling, Judas enters as the play begins, singing the rousing song “Heaven on their Minds,” lamenting the

precarious state of self-proclaimed king of the Jews and his followers amid the politics of the Roman-occupied holy land. It’s here that some of the lyrics (“But every word you say today/Gets twisted ’round some other way/And they’ll hurt you if they think you’ve lied”) reflect the play’s device of trying to see the story through a more modern lens, which works just as often as it can seem forced.

The number serves also to introduce Jesus (Jordan Dobbins), who, fitting the record of the ages, plays a role just as conflicted as Judas’, but in a less showy manner.

Dobbins, last seen at NCRT in A Winter’s Tale and as the lead in Cabaret, does a magnificent job in a role that calls precisely for a human-sized performance — meaning either bland or audacious — of a historically outsized figure. Rounding out the leads is local theater vet Nanette Voss-Herlihy as Mary Magdalene, who brings a good flair to a role that, as written by Webber and Rice, is better fleshed out than the original source material, to put it mildly.

Much of the first act is occupied with the machinations of Caiaphas (Craig Benson) and the Pharisees to move to arrest Jesus to keep peace in Roman-occupied Israel, along with Judas’ ultimate betrayal. It does also contain Jesus’ anger upon arriving at the temple and violently casting out the moneychangers and merchants, an incident in the gospels that for 2,000 years was crying out for a rousingly staged number (“The Temple”). The play’s second act is more focused and memorable, and Dobbins shines in the long and contemplative song that serves as his dialogue with

God, “Gethsemane (I Only Want to Say),” exhibiting an amazing range as a tenor.

Choreographer Tiggerbouncer Custodio (Pippin, Cabaret), who also crops in the cast as Simon Zealotes, does a bang-up job in coordinating a versatile ensemble of dancers and singers who appear throughout the play in number after number — some of them frenetic and energetic, others quietly reflective. Morgan Cox, the man of the hour of late at NCRT, makes the most of a small but pivotal part as Pontius Pilate in the violent and gripping number “Trial Before Pilate,” which involves nearly all of the cast.

Jesus Christ Superstar is many things: As conceived by Webber and Rice, it is a great piece of pop art that transcends some of the early-’70s trappings that might be eye-rolling now by having a certain malleability. Adherents of the Abrahamic faiths can enjoy the story alongside nonbelievers; the play ends simply with Christ’s crucifixion and stops short of the resurrection, which plays more like a creative choice than any larger statement. And I suppose that gets back to the play’s endurance. One cast member’s bio for NCRT’s production states that “she grew up rocking out to the Jesus Christ Superstar soundtrack album in her mom’s record collection.” It’s how many people came to this story and in Calder Johnson’s great staging of this play, you can feel that energy running straight through.

The musical Jesus Christ Superstar plays at North Coast Repertory Theatre on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. through Dec. 8. For more information, call 442-6278 or visit www.ncrt.net.

SETLIST

To Autumn

By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

I

t’s definitely been what John Keats called a “season of mists and mellow fruitfulness, close bosom friend of the maturing sun” recently. We have been lucky in that sense because even though I have been swerving in the low fog a lot lately to avoid the odd raccoon, dog, cat or dark-hoodied skateboarder, I have been loving the cool, white blanket with its wet smells and drifting gray visions that has enveloped our northern county. I grew up in a wetter and colder Humboldt, and it’s always a sort of homecoming to enjoy these brief fits of damp remembrance. I’m always trying to avoid nostalgia but the autumn of one’s life is usually full of the stuff, so forgive me if the mid-autumn of my year is also invested with some of those forbidden sweets.

We don’t really appreciate the fall enough: We pretend that the winter starts as soon as the sun goes down before we are finished eating dinner, the consequence of which leads to a seasonal despair brought on by the illusion of a six-month dead zone. But that’s just avoiding the beauty and slow-motion kiss goodnight that is the epitome of all things autumn. And if there is anything that can maybe help us find small moments of grace in the otherwise idiotically hurried death march we pass off as contemporary society, it is the recognition of a different pace from a truer tempo. The greater majesty of existence humbly invites you to experience it at your convenience.

“Where are the songs of Spring? Ay, where are they?

Think not of them, thou hast thy music too.”

Thursday Homegrown Humboldt reggae act Woven Roots plays the Jam tonight at 10 p.m. for $10, according to the word on the street. Also appearing will be Guyanese artist Arkaingelle. The show will be for those who like the deep grooves of spiritually informed roots rock reggae from the classical vintage of the genre.

Friday The Arcata Theatre Lounge has an electronic show tonight with three artists with the usual bizarrely spelled mononyms.

Young CharlestheFirst is probably the most relaxed and downtempo of the

bunch, while TiedyeKy is a little more twitchy. However, the nearly vowel-free VCTRE walks away tonight with the glitch prize of erratic beatsmanship. The tickets are going for $15 for a limited time, $20 for advance tickets after that and $25 at the door, which opens up at 9:30 p.m.

Saturday According to owner Kate Martin, the site of the Logger Bar was an empty lot in 1886, but there is a record of the first bartender getting fired at the establishment in 1892. Splitting the difference — and looking at the age of the nearby Grange — and it’s a fair guess that the bar was up and running about 130 years ago. So, tonight the cast and crew of the Logger Bar are going to celebrate the seventh anniversary of the newest iteration of the place in tandem with its probable 130th overall year of continuous service as a rural watering-hole.

Hors d’oeuvres will be available at 7 p.m., while the Rinky Dink Stringband will be running its first set at 8 p.m. Come and celebrate an ever-evolving local institution.

If you crave louder and later entertainment, check out the Alibi at 11 p.m. For $5 you can enjoy Seattle’s Wild Powwers, a modern grunge trio with a respect for volume and Pacific Northwest rock history. Local bone saw singers Bow-Legged Buzzards bring the carrion crowds.

Sunday

Seeing as the Tim O’Brien Band show at the Old Steeple appears to be sold out, I will suggest a slightly humbler but no less pleasant showcase of stringed music. The HSU Guitar Ensemble is playing at Fulkerson Hall at 5:30 p.m. ($10, $5 children, free for students). Tonight’s music will include pieces by The Grateful Dead, Juan Serrano and William Kanengiser, as well as themes from the RPG video game Final Fantasy V. Mariachi de HSU is also on board, so it should be a pretty full evening.

Monday Occult-informed riff-rock schlock

doctrine drifters Death Valley Girls come to the Miniplex tonight on a package tour full of damn fine music at 8:30 p.m. ($15, $13 advance). Apart from the Girls, who served as the backing band for the late Roky Erickson on his last tour, you will find the heavy garage rock of Crocodiles, as well as the solo punk theatrics of Los Angeles scene queen Kate Clover. I’ll be there, will you?

Tuesday

live jazz, small bites & craft cocktails

THURSDAY, FRIDAY & SATURDAY NIGHTS in the basement of the jacoby storehouse

Improv and specialty jam band Ghost Light returns to the area to play Humbrews at 9 p.m. ($18, $15 advance).

Featuring classically trained pianist Holly Bowling, this group is known for taking a very studious and exalted path toward the light of purely fun improvisation.

The band’s last appearance at Humbrews was well regarded, so this is likely to be a worthy sequel.

780 7th st. ARCATA

HAPPY HOUR 4-5:30pm daily

Wednesday

U.K. R&B producer Troy Boi will be performing at the Arcata Theatre Lounge on this mid-transit evening between the full and the new moon. Doors open at 7:30 p.m. ($25, $35). Expect to hear downtempo hip hop, backtrack club songs and downtown deep evening pavement flavor drops curling and purring out of the venue’s speakers. Yultron is also in a featured spot on this trip, dubbed the Nostalgia Tour. l Full show listings in the Journal’s Music and More grid, the Calendar and online.

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

Collin Yeo thinks that anyone who supports the recent violent military coup in Bolivia as a preference to a recount or redo of the legal election there ought to be tossed into a box full of agitated skunks. He prefers he/ him and lives in Arcata, where a whole lot of skunks could be pretty quickly gathered with very little preamble.

Holiday Sampler

In New Orleans’ historic French Quarter, Preservation Hall is an iconic music venue whose mission is to “protect, preserve and perpetuate” one of America’s finest art forms: traditional New Orleans jazz. It’s had a house band performing there since the early 1960s, serving as a testament to that mission, showcasing some of the finest jazz musicians in the world: The Preservation Hall Jazz Band. The latest incarnation of the band, featuring band leader Ben Jaffe, son of PHJB co-founders Allan and Sandra Jaffe, is bringing its legendary sound to the Van Duzer Theatre on Saturday, Nov. 16 at 8 p.m. The band will be performing music inspired by its 2015 trip to Cuba, where it filmed the acclaimed documentary Tuba to Cuba ($49, $15).

Ben Jaffe took the band to Cuba in order to follow one of his late father’s dreams: to trace the converging paths of indigenous Cuban music and jazz, discovering the people, customs and cultures that gave birth to New Orleans jazz sound. NOLA jazz is wild and full, unfettered, like the city’s famous street parades. Big energy. Big sound. The music’s polyrhythms lull you into a happy place where you’re abuzz with good feeling.

The band once featured mostly older members in their 60s through 90s, but the mostly young musicians in the touring band today keep the memory and tradition of swinging, stomping boogie alive while bringing their own newer influences to the mix. Treat yourself to some truly fine musicians bringing authentic, soulful, Afro-Cuban/NOLA jazz to Humboldt.

It’s mid-November. The last of the plastic spiders have been shooed away, the cardboard skeletons have all been shoved back in their closets and a huge inflatable Santa wobbles atop Shafer’s Ace Hardware on Harris Street. It must mean one thing: Christmas is coming (as well as Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, Solstice and more) and — let’s face it and embrace it — the goose isn’t the only thing getting fat. The good folks at Rotary Club of Arcata Sunrise’s Community Foundation are helping us herald in the season of snacking with the annual Taste of the Holidays on Thursday, Nov. 21 from 5 to 8 p.m. at the Arcata Community Center ($30).

During the Taste, you and yours can enjoy unlimited samples from more than 30 producers, featuring local specialty foods and beverages. You’ll get a taste ticket for wine, beer or spirit tasting, too, with additional drink tickets available for purchase. Arrive early. The lines will be shorter and the first 300 guests receive a commemorative taster glass. Also, embrace the spirit of giving by bringing an unwrapped toy for the Toys for Tots toy drive and receive a raffle ticket.

The Thursday before Thanksgiving is like dress rehearsal for all the eating, drinking and stuffing that follows in the winter months. Roll up like a bear heading into hibernation. ‘Tis the season.

Doctor Sleep’s Diminishing Returns And Last Christmas’ gifts

By John J. Bennett

Definitely not getting that security deposit back.

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Doctor Sleep

Reviews

DOCTOR SLEEP. Stephen King famously hates Stanley Kubrick’s version of his novel The Shining (book 1977, movie 1980). It’s not my place to say he’s wrong but ... he is. While Kubrick’s is a liberal adaptation, therein lies the whole damn point. Books are not movies, nor the reverse, and this business of simply lifting the words from the page and transposing them onto the screen with as little deviation as possible makes me frustrated, wistful and a little sad.

It’s a good thing King took and takes issue with Kubrick’s version because to me The Shining will always belong more to the screen. By the time I saw the movie, at a precipitous midnight screening as a pre-teen, I had made my way through a fair-to-middling portion of King’s oeuvre but had yet to reckon with Kubrick’s. I had my mind blown and began exploring the iconoclastic ex-pat director’s work in earnest, just as I had the author’s. In so doing, I’ve returned to The Shining a number of times and, like all the whack-jobs, scholars and conspiracy-theorists, I find something new each time. Like all of Kubrick’s work, it is a visually dense, beyond-meticulous exercise in craft, a horror movie that defies and transcends genre with its perverted beauty and consummate composure. The near impossible complexity of its production design, together with the persistent rumors about Kubrick’s ties to the U.S. government, have been the stuff of (often addle-pated) conversation and conjecture for decades, so much so that a documentary was made about it (2012’s Room 237, which I recommend, though probably only for fans). While I cannot subscribe to all of

32

the fantastical notions that have become attached to it, the movie is a significant and enduring work of art. And, having read the novel some 20-plus years after I began reading King, I’d posit the movie has more to offer.

My opinion notwithstanding, King’s stock is soaring these days. Whether this is due more to the imminent adaptability of his work, or the withering imagination and the fear of investing in new intellectual property remains debatable. Regardless, adaptations of his books are trending and good for him. Whether it is good for us — the audience, the fans — is another matter.

In 2013, King published the novel Doctor Sleep, a sequel to The Shining that picks up the story of Danny Torrance some 30 years later. Sometime between then and now, writer/director Mike Flanagan got hold of it and recast it as some sort of bridge-building exercise between King’s novel and Kubrick’s movie; a better philosophical gesture than art.

Flanagan previously adapted another King book, the second-tier but still effective Gerald’s Game, into a weirdly antiseptic Netflix movie in 2017 and, while Doctor Sleep evinces some stylistic evolution (and access to more money, one supposes), it still feels somehow stilted and unconvincing, a fairy-tale rendering of ostensibly horrific subjects. The same criticism could be leveled at much of King’s work, so maybe it’s only appropriate.

The Danny Torrance (Ewan McGregor) to whom we are reintroduced is a fall-down drunk with no prospects (King again channeling Carrie Nation). Since the traumatic events depicted in The Shining,

NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, Nov. 14, 2019 • northcoastjournal.com

he’s spent his life alternately capturing the ghosts in his mind and trying to numb himself to his psychic gifts. And then, one day, he decides to move to New Hampshire, get sober and reinvent himself through clean air and hard work. (In King’s defense, his painstaking plotting and character shading rarely survive the transition from page to screen, this being no exception.) In the midst of this wholesome chapter, Dan becomes aware of an adolescent girl named Abra (Kyliegh Curran) with a shining more powerful than anyone has ever known. This makes her a target for a roving gang of vampire-junkie-tourists who subsist on what they call “the steam” of similarly gifted children and are led by Rose the Hat (Rebecca Ferguson), who wears a silly hat. After some debate, Dan, unwisely enlisting the aid of his friend Billy (Cliff Curtis, doing better work than the part probably merits), teams up with Abra to do battle with the forces of ... what they represent is unclear, really. Faceless evil? The vagaries of the ancient world? An uncaring universe?

This whole enterprise, from its conception, feels non-essential. I suppose I can see the appeal for completionists and I imagine the book is not without its satisfactions. On screen, though, and at over two and a half hours, Doctor Sleep plods, meanders and goes unnecessarily back to the source to provide a coda that does not offer much at all. R. 152M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK, MINOR. LAST CHRISTMAS. I’ve made no secret of my affinity for Christmas movies. Despite my godless pessimism, I find in many of them a warm and abiding comfort.

And so I look forward each year to the

possibility of a new Christmas movie that might make its way into the canon. I’m not so sure about this one ascending but it has its charms.

Inspired by the George Michael song of the same title (and liberally scored with Michael’s songs), co-written by Emma Thompson and directed by Paul Feig (Bridesmaids, 2011; Ghostbusters, 2016), Last Christmas presents the struggling Kate (Emilia Clarke), née Katerina, a first-generation Londoner of Yugoslavian descent. In the wake of a health crisis, she struggles with self-care and motivation.

Her parents barely speak to one another, having been forced to start over after their emigration. She fights with her sister, hangs onto her retail job by a fingernail and goes through the motions at singing auditions. But then she meets a charming oddball named Tom Webster (Henry Golding) and gradually starts to pull things together.

The plot treads a fairly well-worn path but the script, suffused as it is with notions of hope and inclusion, together with Feig’s deceptively light touch, transcends cliché. PG13. 102M. BROADWAY, FORTUNA, MILL CREEK. — John J. Bennett is a movie nerd who loves a good car chase and prefers he/ him pronouns.

By Anthony Westkamper humbug@northcoastjournal.com

A harmless imposter Being the local “bug guy,” I was recently asked about a spider that looked “almost exactly like a black widow” but lacked the distinctive red hourglass on the underside of its abdomen. This is a spider with which I am very familiar. They were nearly everywhere where I grew up in Pacifica, California. I hadn’t seen any hereabouts but I was fairly confident what was being described was a female “false black widow” or Steatoda grossa. Although in the same family as the notorious mate-killer, this spider is much less dangerous and is usually timid. Neither are they the typical jet black of the widows, but usually a dark maroon.

I was discouraged at the time because I didn’t have any photos of the species and a tour of my yard didn’t turn any up either.

That was until two days ago, I looked over the door to my bathroom and there she was. I collected her, took pictures and let her go. This is a nearly harmless species which is beneficial in that it destroys other spiders and pest insects.

My most recent amble along the Van Duzen turned up several California spreadwing damselflies (Archilestes californica) and a single variegated meadowhawk dragonfly (Sympetrum corruptum) that was too agitated to get a shot of perched, but who did hover just long enough to get a shot of in the air.

A single Mylitta crescent (Phyciodes mylitta) put in an appearance. The larvae of this cheerful little orange and black butterfly feed mainly on thistles and their relatives.

Ashes and dancers While I was doing a bit of outside work atop a ladder, several tiny chalk white dots flew with slow grace. They often appeared almost magically as they meandered

through shafts of sunlight and then disappeared into the shadows. They were out of range of my cameras and I was too busy to investigate.

The following day, however, when I saw them again, I was armed with a good camera and had my feet firmly on the ground.

I reached out and scooped one from the air. On the wing it looked more like a tiny bit of ash than a living thing, but in hand it turned out to be a “wooly aphid,” most likely of the subfamily Eriosomatinae. They grow tiny white filaments of waxy exudate. Many members of this group cause galls on herbaceous plants and can carry plant diseases.

A tad farther along, I saw a damselfly.

On downloading the photos, I thought it might be an Emma’s dancer, the only lavender insect I know offhand. But this specimen had blue patches on it and a few minor markings didn’t quite match, so I posted it in a local Facebook group and got an authoritative ID from an expert.

This was not an Emma’s, but a vivid dancer.

In this case, the word “vivid” is not just descriptive; it is actually its name (Argia vivida). Its unusual color may be from it having gotten cold.

I saw two grouse locusts, which resemble tiny grasshoppers to whom they are closely related. At about half an inch long, they can be found along stream banks where they eat algae from the rocks.

Unlike their larger relatives, they can and do overwinter.

Finally, a flower fly caught my eye nectaring on a coyote bush. Mimicking a wasp’s black and yellow warning coloration may give this inoffensive species some protection from predation. ● Read more of Anthony Westkamper’s HumBug column on Sundays at www. northcoastjournal.com.

However, prepayment premiums, accrued interest and advances will increase this figure prior to sale. Beneficiary’s bid at said sale may include all or part of said amount. In addition to cash, the Trustee will accept a cashier’s check drawn on a state or national bank, a check drawn by a state or federal credit union or a check drawn by a state or federal savings and loan association, savings associ− ation or savings bank specified in Section 5102 of the California Finan− cial Code and authorized to do business in California, or other such funds as may be acceptable to the Trustee. In the event tender other than cash is accepted, the Trustee may withhold the issuance of the Trustee’s Deed Upon Sale until funds become available to the payee or endorsee as a matter of right. The property offered for sale excludes all funds held on account by the property receiver, if appli− cable. If the Trustee is unable to convey title for any reason, the successful bidder’s sole and exclu− sive remedy shall be the return of monies paid to the Trustee and the successful bidder shall have no further recourse. Notice to Poten− tial 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 owner− ship 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 respon− sible 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 prop− erty by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this informa− tion. 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 infor− mation about Trustee Sale post− ponements 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 prop− erty, you may call Nationwide Posting & Publication at 916.939.0772 for information regarding the Trustee’s Sale or visit

Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the prop− erty. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property.

You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this infor− mation. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property.

ASTROLOGY

CARTOONS

Free Will Astrology Week of Nov. 14, 2019

By Rob Brezsny

Homework: “How easy it is to make people happy when you don’t want or need anything from them,” said Gail Godwin. Give an example. FreeWillAstrology.com

freewillastrology@freewillastrology.com ARIES (March 21-April 19): If there are any potential Aries heroes or leaders or saviors out there, the coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to fully bloom and assert your practical magnificence. The lessons you have learned while improvising workable solutions for yourself are ripe to be applied to the riddles that are puzzling your tribe or group or gang. I want to let you know, however, that to achieve maximum effectiveness, you should be willing to do good deeds for people who may not be able to pay you back.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You’re entering a phase of your astrological cycle when it’s crucial that your receptivity be as robust as possible. To guide you in this delightful but perhaps challenging work, here are good questions for you to pose. 1. Do you know what help and support you need most, and are you brave and forthright enough to ask for it? 2. Is there any part of you, perhaps unconscious, that believes you don’t deserve gifts and blessings? 3. Do you diligently cultivate your capacity to be refreshed and restored? 4. Are you eagerly responsive when life surprises you with learning experiences and inspirations?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “Many people will not be honest because they fear loss of intimacy and togetherness,” writes self-help author Henry Cloud. But the truth, he adds, is that “honesty brings people closer together,” because it “strengthens their identities.” Therein lies the tender paradox: “The more you realize your separate identities, the closer you can become.”

Living according to this principle may not be as easy or convenient as being deceptive and covert, but it’s ultimately more gratifying. Henry Cloud concludes, “Telling loved ones what is really on your mind and telling others what you really think is the foundation of love.”

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Maturity is having the ability to escape categorization,” said poet Kenneth Rexroth. That’s the opposite of the conventional wisdom. For many people, the process of growing up and becoming a seasoned adult means trying to fit in, to find one’s category, to be serious and steady and stable. Rexroth, on the other hand, suggested that when you fully ripen into your potentials, you transcend standard definitions; you don’t adhere to others’ expectations; you are uniquely yourself, outside and beyond all pigeonholes and classifications. The coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to practice and cultivate this sacred art.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Is there an event from your past that would be empowering for you to remember in detail? Is there a neglected but still viable dream you could resurrect, thereby energizing your enthusiasm for the future? Are there old allies you’ve lost touch with but who, if you called on them, could provide you with just the boost you need? Is there a familiar pleasure you’ve grown numb to but could reinvigorate by visualizing the original reasons you loved it? The coming weeks will be a favorable time to meditate on these questions.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Catholic saint St. Francis (1181–1226) loved animals and the natural world. According to one folkloric tale, he was once traveling on foot with several companions when they came upon a place where the trees were filled with birds. Francis said, “Wait for me while I go preach to my sisters the birds.” He proceeded to do just that. The birds were an attentive audience for the duration of his sermon, apparently captivated by his tender tones. Seven centuries later, author Rebecca West offered a critique of the bird-whisperer. “Did St. Francis preach to the birds?” she asked. “Whatever for? If he really liked birds he would have done better to preach to the cats.” In the coming weeks, Virgo, I encourage you to do the metaphorical equivalent of preaching to both the birds and the cats.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Every now and then I authorize you Libras to shed your polite, tactful personas and express the angst you sometimes feel but usually hide. That’s now! To egg you on, read this mischievous rant by Libran blogger Clary Gay (claryfightwood.tumblr.com): “We Libras are constantly thinking about how to make everyone else comfortable and happy. There’s not a minute going by when we’re not worrying about radiating a soothing and comforting aura so everyone can have a good time. If a Libra is cranky, it’s because they snapped!

Because of some non-Libra who doesn’t appreciate them! If a Libra is mean to people, it’s their own damn fault!”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Poet Robert Bly tells us that the door to the soul is unlocked. You don’t have to struggle through any special machinations to open it or go through it. Furthermore, the realm of the soul is always ready for you. Always. It harbors the precise treasure you need in order to be replenished and empowered. I bring this to your attention, Scorpio, because I think that during the next two weeks, you should abide as much as possible in the soul’s realm — the cornucopia of holy truths and ever-fresh riches.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In my estimation, what you’ve experienced lately has been akin to a fermentation process. It’s as if you’re undergoing a transformation with resemblances to the way that grapes turn into wine or milk becomes yogurt or dough rises before being baked into bread. You may have had to endure some discomfort, which is the case for anything in the midst of substantial change. But I think you’ll ultimately be quite pleased with the results, which I expect will be ready no later than 10 days after your birthday — and quite possibly sooner.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Many books have been written about Joan of Arc, a 15th-century teenage peasant girl whose improbable ascent to military leadership, under the guidance of her divine visions, was crucial in France’s victory over the English. Among the many miraculous elements of her story was the fact that less than a year before she led troops into battle on horseback, she didn’t know how to ride a horse. She learned by riding around her father’s farm astride his cows. I foresee an equivalent marvel in your future, Capricorn. By this time next year, you will have developed an aptitude that might seem unimaginable now. (P.S. There’s evidence Joan was a Capricorn.)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The Divine Comedy is one of history’s greatest literary works. Its author, Dante Alighieri, was 43 when he began writing the Inferno, the first part of his three-part masterpiece. Up until that time, he had published just one book and a few poems, and had also abandoned work on two unfinished books. Early on in the Inferno, the notyet-renowned author presents a fictional scene in which he meets with the spirits of antiquity’s most famous authors: Virgil, Homer, Horace, Ovid, and Lucan. Those illustrious five tell Dante he is such an important writer that he ranks sixth, after them, in his excellence. I’m going to encourage you to dare indulging in behavior like Dante’s: to visualize and extol — and yes, even brag about — the virtues and skills that will ultimately be your signature contribution to this world.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Latin word for sea is mare.

Flustra is the calm sea. Undisonus means “resounding with waves.” Caeruleus is the sea’s deep shade of blue, aestus is the tide, and aequoreus means “connected with the sea.” My hope is that as you meditate on these lyrical terms, you’ll be moved to remember the first lakes, rivers, and oceans you ever swam in. You’ll recall your time floating in your mother’s womb and your most joyous immersions in warm baths and hotsprings.

Why? It’s a favorable time to seek the healing and rejuvenating powers of primal waters — both metaphorically and literally.
