s we gape and cringe at cable news chyrons, push notifications and presidential tweets — sweet mother of Murrow, the tweets — it’s easy to think of national stories as the totality of “the news” and the impacts outlined there as the finite shape of an issue’s reach.

But neither is true. When we throw up our hands at the TV and ask, “Why is nobody covering this?” chances are, somebody is. Local news outlets on shoestring budgets with staffers doubling and tripling up on workloads are doing their damnedest to hold government officials accountable, illustrate the outcomes of state and national policies in the neighborhoods where we live and cover disasters and their aftermaths long after far-flung audiences have moved on. (Cheers to Santa Rosa’s Press Democrat, which just won a Pulitzer Prize for its wildfire coverage.)

Whether Mark Zuckerberg deigns to let those articles into your Facebook feed is another question — it’s a safer bet to just bookmark our pages.

The journalists who live where their readers do can cover stories with nuance and depth outsiders parachuting in for a few weeks can’t — they know the players, the history and the idiosyncrasies of our world, bringing them to light without reducing us to archetypes and curiosities.

(Good luck, Netflix documentary crew.)

Add to that the accountability of reporters running into readers at the market or the vet’s office.

This weekend, the California News Publishers Association handed out its honors and the Journal, finalist for 12 categories, scored nine awards: First Place Coverage of Local Government for Kim Wear’s reporting on the Magneys (Jan. 12, 2017), cited by a judge for its “strong storytelling techniques used in an article that weaves how a county tried to take away the medical decisions for a dying man with the love story of the couple.”

Case,” (Sept. 21, 2017) which the judge noted “has it all ... a neighborhood surprised by drug production ... dire consequences for this community,” and the processes and dangers of hash labs “made simple.”

First Place In-Depth Reporting for staff coverage of David Marcus, Humboldt County’s former public defender. “Breadth of undertaking probably makes this one the clear winner,” wrote a judge.

First Place Informational Graphic for Holly Harvey’s “Potential Sources for Myclobutanil Contamination” (Dec. 21, 2018), which illustrates the possible means of contamination of cannabis crops and is very pretty for something so destructive.

First Place Sports Feature Story for Linda Stansberry’s Hoopa Rodeo cover story “Holding On” (Aug. 17, 2017), about which a judge wrote, “The sophisticated, colorful writing perfectly captured a day in the life of a struggling rodeo.”

First Place Special Publication for Humboldt Insider’s “Engaging writing, interesting stories, nice use of photos and layouts, lots of good local information.”

(FYI, the new Spring-Summer issue just dropped, so grab one.)

Second Place Columns award for the satirical Seriously? column by Jennifer Fumiko Cahill, a pair of which a judge

called “both funny — both scathing.”

Third Place Writing for Jennifer Fumiko Cahill’s “How to Dine Alone” (Jan. 5, 2017) about enjoying a table for one like a boss.

Third Place Informational Graphic for Holly Harvey’s breakdown of “DIY Butane Hash Oil Extraction” (Sept. 21, 2017), a highly dangerous process we’d like to stress, once again, you should not try at home. Read the story — that game could kill you.

The Journal was also a finalist for Arts and Entertainment Coverage, Front Page Layout and Design and Investigative Reporting for Linda Stansberry’s “Prelude to a Sweep” (May 25, 2017) and “Swept” (June 1, 2017), about the clearing of homeless encampments from Eureka’s marshes.

We are, of course, proud of our winning writers and designers, and of every person who makes our print and online pieces possible. We’re proud, too, because these are stories of our community — our stories. l Jennifer Fumiko Cahill is the arts and features editor at the Journal.

Plaque Build Up Editor: Driving down 101 from Eureka’s music festival, while breakfasting at the Eel River Café in Garberville, I read about the disputes over removing the McKinley statue (“Long Road to Nowhere on McKinley Vote,” Mar. 23).

Why not keep the statue but add a plaque that creates a learning opportunity? Mention his alacrity in joining the Union army and if there is evidence he performed heroically in combat, include that, too. But then point out the genocide and racism, mentioning how widespread that was throughout society at the time.

Instead of burying history, learn from it.

That plaque might be a whole lot cheaper than moving the statue and think of the generations that will learn something from it.

Don Gibbs, San Francisco

Further Reporting, Please Editor: According to your article, “Arcata Chief Abruptly Resigns Amid Growing Frustration”, people of color are regularly assault-

ed on the HSU campus, left bruised and bleeding. Wow! Why haven’t these crimes been reported? The NCJ should certainly do a follow-up story about these alleged assaults.

Diane Higgins, McKinleyville

read her words, I am in awe of the gratitude she expresses to a community that needs to work so much harder to deserve it.

Charmaine described her son as “a loving, caring, compassionate and ambitious man with integrity.” It is clear how he became that way and it is clear that Humboldt County needs to learn those same lessons before we are able to become the community Charmaine and the family and friends of David Josiah Lawson deserve. #JusticeforJosiah Melody Soper, McKinleyville

Love for Lawson Editor: Thank you for sharing the voice of Charmaine Lawson.

Her grace, poise and strength in the aftermath of pain most Terry Torgerson of us can’t even imagine is inspirational. Charmaine sent her son to school in Humboldt and we failed to protect him, from our racism, our inadequate and ineffective services and our lack of understanding of reality, leading to the perpetuation of discrimination (knowingly or not). This failure belongs to all of us because these problems have gone unacknowledged and unchecked for too long. This failure belongs to the old, white hippies who believe in their hearts that everyone is equal, just as much as the overtly prejudiced white nationalists we pretend don’t have a voice in a town like Arcata.

At the February 15 vigil for David Josiah Lawson, circling motorcycles drowned out the words of Charmaine and others speaking on the Plaza. When it was pointed out by a woman of color that this was on purpose, the look on one white women’s face said it all: shock and confusion.

Liberal white people who are committed to making Humboldt a better place need to stop living in a dream world and accept the reality of the situation for us to move forward and actually affect change.

Democratic Statuary Editor: I hope the initiative to leave the McKinley statue on the Arcata Plaza gets on the ballot because that will give the people of Arcata the opportunity to acknowledge and reject, if only in a small way, the many injustices that settlers and the U.S. government visited on the indigenous peoples of the North Coast and all of Turtle Island.

Those injustices, which included “extermination” and forced removal, are not addressed in the California Department of Education’s history/social studies curriculum; that should be fixed. Furthermore, injustices continue in the guise of western tribal water deals, many of which manipulate the needs of tribal governments to take indigenous water rights for the modern of a handful of beads Build to equivalent edge of the document

Appoint, Don’t Elect!

Editor: Recently there was turmoil in the Public Defender’s Office. Most people pointed the finger at the Board of Supervisors for making a bad choice and asking/demanding that it correct its error. In a little less than a year,

corrective action was taken and things seem to have quieted down.

Now the ongoing problems in the AC office have become so large that they have finally spilled into the local news media (“Drama at the A/C,” April 12). Whose bad judgement led to this problem? Not the board, they don’t appoint this position!

That’s right, this is an elected position and the voters put the auditor-controller in office. If the auditor-controller did not voluntarily decide to step down he would be in this position for eight more months because only the voters can replace him.

Perhaps a ballot measure to make this an appointed position would receive different consideration than it did in the past. By state law the supervisors, the Sheriff, the district attorney, and the assessor must be elected.

All the others can be changed from elected to appointed by a vote of the people. The auditor-controller is a high salaried position that other departments depend on and it should, in my opinion, be appointed by the board. Since that is not going to happen in the near future and the voters are going to continue with the responsibility of putting the auditor-controller in office, please realize that responsibility has the duty of taking the time to research for whom you are voting.

You have two choices in June. Vote wisely because the county will be stuck with the results for four years and it won’t be the board’s fault!

John Murray, Arcata

Kids and Guns Editor: I have two grandsons age 12 and 13.

Both go to school here in Eureka. I have spoken to both and some of their friends, regarding feeling safe at school. Some have hunted for wild game and some have not. They are all aware people kill, not guns. (Put a gun by a tree and see if you get a deer.) They have said, to the boy,

bad guys will have guns just the honest people won’t. Honest people would like to have a chance to defend themselves if needed. You will never get rid of all guns in America. If some person has a mental problem and wants to make a “name” for themselves, they could always use a car to kill children or bomb (did everyone forget the daycare?). Cars have ran into McDonalds and Colonel Sanders, just to name two places. In fact, people have been shot and cars used, to kill at movies, in church, in malls, on the sidewalk and in parks. No country is insulated from school killings, why do we feel so entitled? Do you really believe America has no bad people? Look at the numbers in prison, that didn’t live by our laws. Adults, take responsibility for your children and the guns in your home.

Carol Rose, Eureka

None Taken, We’re Sure Editor: Regarding the article, “Mistrust Led to Ex-FBI Agent’s Departure from Lawson Case,” Apr. 13.

Great job, you got the story straight from the horse’s mouth (no disrespect to Mr. Parker).

Carman Gentile, Arcata

Correction/clarification: In last week’s story about the Humboldt County Auditor-Controller’s office, “Drama at the A/C,” we incorrectly stated that Assistant Auditor-Controller Karen Paz Dominguez had been the subject of multiple complaints by her coworkers for creating a hostile work environment. In fact, while county spokesperson Sean Quincey confirmed that there had been “multiple complaints” in the office, Paz Dominguez says she has only been the subject of one.

The Journal apologizes for the error. l

Exit Interview with Bill Damiano

What the retiring probation chief has seen, learned and is still mad about

By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

H

umboldt County Chief Probation Officer Bill Damiano has less than a week left on the job and he’s using the time to break in a new pair of hiking boots and clear out his office for his successor, current Assistant Chief Shaun Brenneman. After 30 years working in the county probation department, Damiano has accrued many file folders and a lot of perspective, some of which he shared with the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors on April 3 as it debated whether to back the Reducing Crime and Keeping California Safe Act of 2018. The statewide initiative

is being touted as a corrective to prison realignment measures such as propositions 47 and 57, and state Assembly Bill 109.

Damiano predicted the bill, which covers a lot of ground — parole, sentencing, DNA testing — would have a severe impact on probation’s ability to supervise and reform its clients. The board, which earlier in the day had honored Damiano for the “heart and soul” he put into his position, rejected his advice, voting 4-1 in favor of supporting the initiative, with the caveat that staff prepare research on alternative legislation that might be less all-encompassing (Mike Wilson was the lone ‘nay’ vote). We spoke

with Damiano about the board’s decision and a number of other topics.

North Coast Journal: We understand you hold the record for most supervised urine tests, is that correct?

Damiano: (Laughs) I think Shaun [Brenneman] was just being funny when he said that. We often have a lot of female officers so, as a male parole officer, I would spend about half the day in the bathroom watching people pee. I was “The Urinator.”

I’ve seen some things. I could probably write a book on the things I’ve seen.

NCJ: How have you seen the criminal justice system change over the last 30 years, as far as clientele, public perceptions and public safety?

Damiano: I have felt like my role as chief is to really get out in the community and educate. And the criminal justice system is a complicated animal and I think it takes an awful lot of education. People have particular views — conservative, more social, pro social — [it] runs the whole gamut but the reality is when you have someone who has a very narrow viewpoint and just thinks people who do crimes need to be punished, you can’t change their mind.

That’s their belief.

The biggest concern for the administra-

tor are about corrections being lost in the equation because elected officials, district attorneys get elected on a tough-on-crime stance. Corrections, we’re not sexy, we’re not official, we don’t have a loud voice but, as I was trying to say at the board of supervisors the other day, the reality is the majority of the criminal justice population is under our supervision. We have an immense responsibility and may be the most crucial piece of public safety because you can’t punish away the stuff that makes people do crimes.

NCJ: How do you feel your presentation was received by the Board of Supervisors?

Damiano: It was about what I expected from elected officials that are responding to their constituents. They drive the tax base and they have loud voices. I appreciate that elected officials need to be responsive to their constituents. I hear the complaints that crime is up, drugs are up.

But I tend to go back to, “Let’s look at the true data and let’s see if it’s really up.” I was trying to present facts that, here they gave us the whole TV dinner and part of that dinner was poison, and I would not recommend buying that dinner.

NCJ: What’s the poison part?

Helping you create the memories of tomorrow 707-443-2778 800-462-2937 www.Dalianes.com 522 F St • Eureka, CA

Damiano: The part that affects what it is that we do [in probation]. It’s taking away discretion to work with post-release-supervision probationers. It takes away our ability to use flash [incarcerations], the ability of probation to deal with technical violations, the things that aren’t law violations, like dirty tests, failing to appear, things like that. So it changes our ability to do that and mandates that after a third violation a person will be sentenced — they just get revoked, period, no chance. Instead of that, they’re going to force a court hearing.

Seventy percent of the people who are in the jail today are in there pretrial. So they’ll add more pretrial people.

Not only that but changing sentences, making more people prison eligible … just further impacts the system. It’s like the rest of that bill where you’re basically saying, “We don’t like the fact that parole authorities get to consider someone … earlier than they used to.” Well, we have to reduce the population in the prisons.

We’re under a federal mandate. Who do you want making those decisions? Parole boards, who are California representatives, or do you want some federal judge from God knows where to make that decision for you? I understand you’re upset that you

took away the punishment someone gave you but then look at the facts. How many people get paroled? Ninety percent of parole applications are rejected. Who’s on the parole board? Retired cops, retired judges, defense attorneys — are you saying your fellow justice partners who are on parole boards are going to make bad decisions?

What are you saying? Talk about what’s real. It doesn’t make any sense to me that you’re upset with what the voters did. The voters passed Prop 57. The state didn’t pass Prop 57. the voters did. Quit confusing the voters and quit lying to them.

I’m still angry about Prop. 47. It did some right things in decreasing penalties and I appreciate that. But the people who wrote it said we would get money for mental health and substance abuse treatment.

Well, we didn’t. Twenty-three public agencies throughout the state did. Every county was affected by Prop. 47, every county should have received savings from the state. Every one of them.

NCJ: There is a perception by many that they are less safe.

Damiano: Look at the crime statistics. The state data is available. There was a spike. The crime policy institute of California says there was a little bit of a

spike. But let’s not exaggerate. There are just wild accusations. Like, “The homeless problem in California, it’s all A.B. 109ers.” I get people calling me: “Your A.B. 109ers are all behind the mall.” It’s just not true. I’ll go out there, I’ll send my staff out there with [law enforcement] and we’ll count them.

Five percent of the people, maybe, have some relationship with the criminal justice system. They’re my guys?

NCJ: How do we reduce crime?

Damiano: We do more things like Neighborhood Watch. We try to break down what our society has done in becoming a bunch of autonomous people focused on phones and not talking to their neighbors, and try to get people talking to their neighbors. We get security lights up and down the street. There’s a lot of things we can do to prevent crime. Once somebody is already in the system, I think we need to engage them and give them the services to help them get out. Hold them accountable.

The carrot and the stick works.

NCJ: Is anything making you optimistic right now?

Damiano: I’m always optimistic. I still have hope that people will see the light.

I still have hope that our community will come together and provide those sup-

portive services and a more supportive atmosphere.

The reality is, you can only help people who are ready to be helped. I always thought I had a good sense of who I could help but it turns out I was wrong. Some of the people I challenged and said, “I don’t really see you doing it, it looks pretty bleak for you.” And they took that as a challenge and they knuckled down and proved me wrong. Awesome! Prove me wrong! I love that.

I know I have a reputation for liking criminal offenders. And you know what, I do. They’re colorful. And I’ve met some really awesome, incredible human beings on probation. I’ve learned so much. I feel so blessed to be in their lives. They’ve taught me a lot. The resilience of people. What I’ve seen is people who have had this much adversity, when they get their life in order, they can swing that far on the pendulum as well. They have so much joy and depth to their lives after they get their stuff together. That’s an amazing thing to see. l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal.

om Parker, a retired FBI agent who recently stepped down from assisting the Arcata Police Department’s investigation into David Josiah Lawson’s murder, says he’s convinced the case could be solved in just a few months, if not weeks, if he were able to bring the right people on board.

“We’d have this thing finished up,” he says, during a far-reaching KHSU interview the North Coast Journal was invited to join and which aired Monday with host Lorna Bryant. “That’s not patting ourselves

on the back. That’s the reality of this case.”

Joined by attorney Shelley Mack, who represents Josiah’s mother Charmaine Lawson pro-bono, both Mack and Parker expressed frustration with the lack of progress and by what they see as initial missteps by both APD and the District Attorney’s Office.

The interviews came on the heels of Parker’s resignation, which was followed

by APD Chief Tom Chapman’s less than 24-hours later on April 10, and a claim being filed against the city by Charmaine Lawson, who is seeking at least $500,000

Parker says the case — which he has also been working on pro-bono — continues to languish with basic investigative steps left untaken and the recommen-

dations he was retained to provide ignored, including collecting evidence and conducting a specific forensic test on the murder weapon that he believes could be vital to the case.

Instead he believes the department is intent on pursuing an investigative Continued on next page »

technique that “may have been logical in the very beginning but it had outlived the likelihood that it was going to work.”

Parker says when he began raising questions about why other avenues were not pursued, “I basically got blank stares back from them.”

After conditions he set down to stay — which included bringing on his own team to take over the investigation — went unfulfilled, and convinced that Chapman was at best withholding information and at worst lying to him, Parker says he was left with no choice but to resign.

The Arcata City Council released a statement Monday, which reiterated the city’s “commitment” to resolving the case, while raising concerns about how the KHSU interview and others in recent days are impacting the investigation.

The statement acknowledges “certain case strategy and information” were withheld from Parker because the city “became concerned about potential disclosure of confidential case information.”

“Breaches of his non-disclosure agreement would be damaging to a fragile investigation and as a result the city took steps to protect the integrity of the case,” the statement reads, adding that Parker

“painted a picture of the investigation that is very contrary to his recent media commentary” when he met with the council in December.

Parker says his initial look at the case seemed to indicate the APD touched on the basic cornerstones of a homicide investigation but he became more concerned after a deeper review and follow-up discussions with Chapman and the lead detective.

He also disputes any violation of the non-disclosure agreement, saying all he did was tell Charmaine Lawson about his unfollowed recommendation on the forensic test that he believes needs to be done, something that was not a risk to the investigation in his view.

And, he says, he had been upfront with Diemer and Chapman about his conviction that the city was making a mistake by not communicating more with the family.

“They deserve to know, they have a right to know what’s going on,” Parker says, adding that should always be the “first priority” in homicide investigations and family can often be an important source of information.

It’s a choice, he believes, that has fostered discord in the community.

The way Mack sees it, the response to Parker’s disclosure shows that city officials chose to keep the “victim’s mother in the dark rather than to advance the investigation and I think that’s one of the problems that has plagued this investigation the entire time.”

The death of Josiah Lawson, who was black while the only named suspect is white, has laid bare undercurrents of racial tensions in the college town, with students of color coming forward at council meetings and city-sponsored forums to share their experiences with overt and subtle racism that has left many of them feeling unsafe.

Charges against the only person arrested, then 23-year-old Kyle Zoellner, were dismissed by a judge last year after a five-day preliminary hearing due to contradictory testimony from witnesses.

Parker and Mack both questioned why the District Attorney’s Office put nearly two dozen people on the stand instead of just the lead investigator and the witness or two needed to meet the lower level of probable cause required to hold a suspect over for trial.

“To me, it’s inexplicable,” Mack says, “other than they just decided to throw ev-

erything they had at the wall to see what would stick at the end of the day. That’s not a strategy.”

Parker says he believes there are several possible reasons why the case hasn’t progressed since then — including laziness or a belief that after Zoellner’s arrest the ball was in the district attorney’s court — but the most pervasive was a lack of leadership on Chapman’s part.

Noting that training was also a likely factor, Parker continues on to say there was one other possible addition to the list: “Is there a subtle racism that is like a wet blanket over this investigation? I don’t know.”

Mack was less couched in her assessment.

“I do have to say it’s hard for me to believe, if the tables were turned, if it was Kyle Zoellner who had bled out on a cold cul-de-sac that night and Josiah was the one arrested, that we wouldn’t have already seen a very quick trial and a conviction and a lot of public lamenting of the wasted life of the poor white man,” Mack says.

The attorney says she hopes more public pressure being put on Arcata Mayor Sofia Pereira, District Attorney Maggie Fleming, City Manager Karen Diemer and

other members of the city council to “switch up the team that’s in charge of the case.”

She says the investigators currently tasked with the job are “essentially waiting for the phone to ring with someone to tell them the answer,” but it’s been clear the call isn’t going to come.

“So, they need to work the case and if they are not willing to work the case, the city needs to hire police officers who are,” Mack says.

Diemer tells the Journal in an April 13 interview that she’s confident the investigation is progressing. She also says many of Parker’s recommendations were followed, but over time he began to ask for things APD didn’t feel it could do — like obtaining warrants for specific types of work and requiring people to engage with law enforcement or come in to speak with investigators.

“The investigative team, I would say, is all in complete agreement that the best investigative strategy is being pushed forward on this case,” she says. “I think there is an impression out there that it’s not advancing, and that impression is really inaccurate, based on what I know.”

The council also states there is “an Build to edge of the document Margins are just a safe area

active and committed investigative team in place between the Arcata Police Department and the investigators with the District Attorney’s Office.”

Fleming wrote in an email to the Journal last week that: “At this stage, we are involved by providing support, resources and input as it relates to the ongoing investigation.”

Mack and Parker disagree, saying they see the current investigation on a course that’s just “not going to work,” with Parker, who retired as assistant special agent in charge of the FBI’s Los Angeles field office, strongly disagreeing that his requests were out of APD’s bounds of ability.

“That’s bullshit,” he says, noting those are all common investigative tools. “It happens all the time. These are phony baloney excuses.”

Meanwhile, Parker says he would have to think long and hard if he was offered an opportunity to resume his official role in the investigation but there are still ways he can contribute.

“I am still firmly committed to justice for Josiah. I am still firmly committed that this case could be solved and should be solved,” he says. l

Canni-bias Results from the Humboldt County Convention and Visitors Bureau’s cannabis survey

By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

E

ven as the Humboldt County Convention and Visitors Bureau was taking a bit of a public beating about its lack of cannabis marketing during the April 3 Board of Supervisors meeting (See “Cannabis Convention and Visitors Bureau?,” Apr. 5.), a survey on that very subject was winging its way to the inboxes of HCCVB’s target audience. Roughly 1,500 people on the bureau’s mailing list responded to questions about whether or not tourists would visit Humboldt County specifically for cannabis activities, the likelihood of their trying a cannabis activity while here, how cannabis would affect visitors’ perceptions and whether it would make tourists feel unsafe or want to travel somewhere else for family vacations with the kids. The responses, like the questions, skewed a bit negative.

While many respondents were neutral on the subject, a majority of those polled said they were unlikely to visit “specifically to experience cannabis activities” and said these unspecified activities would “negatively” or “very negatively” affect their perceptions of traveling here. Questions on safety and family-appropriateness were a bit less divisive, but it was in the comments portion that things really got interesting.

Between April 3 and April 9, 396 people added their comments to the survey.

Of these, 119 people said they were strongly opposed to the idea of cannabis tourism in the county, with several people asking to be removed from the mailing list and many saying they would never visit again. Sample: “Focusing on cannabis for tourism is a horrible idea. This would bring the wrong crowd, higher crime, more trash and transient problems, and would go against everything the redwoods and natural surroundings are trying to capture.”

Fifty-six people were either strongly in favor of cannabis marketing, receiving more information about cannabis or opportunities to sample cannabis products or visit cannabis farms while in the region.

Sample: “Although cannabis isn’t the reason we are visiting, it is a plus and helped motivate our decision to come for other attractions.”

Two hundred and twenty-one people left ambivalent, neutral or non-responsive comments, saying they were mostly interested in seeing the redwoods or didn’t care either way. Some respondents were concerned about the impact of cannabis on their experience of the redwoods, citing worries about second-hand smoke exposure, but didn’t indicate that they were planning on canceling their trips.

Sample: “Keep the magic of the trees first.”

The survey may have undermined some of the HCCVB’s attempts to get more “heads in beds,” as many respondents said they didn’t know cannabis had such a big presence in the region, saying, in the words of one respondent, “It’s a shame Humboldt County promotes this garbage.”

HCCVB’s Executive Director Tony Smithers said the survey was sent to gather data to support the bureau’s next step, as it has been under increased pressure to fold cannabis tourism into its current marketing plan since legalization. But will the response from the survey stymie efforts to promote pot? Smithers doesn’t think so.

“My solution is that we just establish a parallel marketing track for cannabis,” Smithers told the Journal, with the caveat that he’d need to receive the board’s approval for this plan. “We’re going to put a firewall around the current marketing track, the older group that are totally into the redwoods and family travel.”

The demographic responding to the survey does skew a bit older, with a full 59 percent of those who took the survey self-reporting that they were above the age of 55. That age group — apparently the most likely to sign up for tourism mailing lists and respond to surveys — is an important one to draw to the region, but it’s not the target market for recreational cannabis, Smithers says.

“The baby boomers are the bulge in the snake,” he said. “They’re still driving the bus. They’re the ones with the disposable income. But there’s no question that the millennials are coming on strong. They’re a large cohort as well. There’s a lot of millennials, they have much different attitude about travel. They will prioritize travel over buying a house, paying bills, student loans.”

To reach that new generation of consumers, Smithers says they anticipate leaning heavily on digital marketing and social media. He said he would even be interested in attending a cannabis trade show with Terra Carver, executive director of the Humboldt Cannabis Growers Alliance. Carver was one of several people who spoke at the April 3 meeting and expressed concern about the lack of marketing.

“If I could speak to 10,000 potential tourists over a weekend, that would be great,” Smithers said. Maybe they’ll also sign up for his mailing list. l Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal. Reach her at 442-1400, extension 317, or linda@northcoastjournal.com.

Mother of Slain HSU Student Files Claim Against Arcata

T

he civil rights attorney for the mother of slain Humboldt State University student David Josiah Lawson has filed a claim seeking at least $500,000 from the city of Arcata, alleging Charmaine Lawson suffered injuries including emotional distress and anxiety due to a “negligent investigation” into her son’s death.

The 14-page document outlines several instances in which former Arcata Police Chief Tom Chapman, who abruptly resigned his position April 10, allegedly lied to Charmaine Lawson about the investigation, including the assistance his department was receiving from other Humboldt County law enforcement agencies.

Filed on Friday by attorney Shelley Mack, the claim also details steps the department reportedly failed to take from the first moments officers arrived at the scene of Josiah Lawson’s fatal stabbing at an off-campus party on April 15, 2017, to today. He was 19.

The Arcata City Council sent out a statement Monday evening, acknowledging the claim and comments Mack and retired FBI agent Tom Parker — who recently stepped down from assisting the investigation — made to the media, criticizing the handling of the case.

While stating the “city’s commitment to solving David Josiah Lawson’s case has not waivered,” the release also expresses concerns about how the “timing” of Parker’s departure “coincides” with the claim’s filing and the interviews, which have included “unproven allegations.”

“Furthermore, the City is troubled that certain statements made by Mr. Parker

A Listicle to Save the World What each of us can do to reduce our environmental footprint

W

ith all the bleak environmental news out there — climate change, rising sea levels, endangered species, starving abalone — it can be easy to feel lost and disheartened, unsure of what you can do to make a difference.

With that in mind, we reached out to a handful of local environmental nonprofits and asked them each to weigh in on the most impactful things we as individuals can do to make a difference. Here’s what they had to say.

— Thadeus Greenson

Redwood Coast Energy Authority Walk or bike. Fossil-fuel-burning vehicles are the number one source of greenhouse gas emissions in Humboldt County. (Bonus: Moving your limbs will help you be happier and healthier, and more motivated to lessen your footprint in other ways.)

Use transit or carpool. (Bonus: You’ll have time to chat with friends or decide you need new friends and then make new friends — it’s a great way to quickly improve your social life.)

Buy an electric vehicle. There are several new and used models out there with

all-electric or hybrid motors to suit multiple traveling needs. (Bonus: People will wonder what’s under your hood, in a good way.)

Buy energy-efficient products, such as LED lights and energy-saving appliances.

(Bonus: Many energy-saving products also come with features their previous counterparts don’t have, such as choice of light color and brightness, custom temperature settings for different food compartments in your fridge and timers so that you aren’t heating your spaces when you aren’t using them.)

Make a fuel switch to heat-pump technology when replacing your furnace or hot-water heater. Electric heat pumps are up to 400 percent more efficient than gas heating. (Bonus: Some don’t require ducting, which is great news for old houses.)

Opt up to 100-percent renewable energy through RCEA’s RePower+ electricity program. (Bonus: Support new renewable energy projects in Humboldt County.)

Install solar at your home or business if you can. Power from the sun is literally delivered to the earth every day at no cost.

It just takes some investment to capture it and use it to deliver Netflix to your living room. (Bonus: Reducing electricity demand from the grid helps everyone.)

Non-energy related bonus tip: Support and volunteer at one of the many great environmental nonprofits in Humboldt County.

The Environmental Protection Information Center Our day-to-day lives offer many opportunities to be better stewards of the environment. Many of these actions are simple — don’t use a plastic straw, try to drive less and bike or walk more, cut up those little plastic things on six-packs. But what are some of the larger things you can do to be a good enviro?

Vote: I won’t belabor this because this first one should be obvious.

The aphorism that “elections have consequences” is true. And we are living with the consequences of the 2016 elections today. I could present a parade of horribles about what is happening today but I am sure you read the news, too.

Adopt an area: There’s somewhere on this planet that you think is really special, right? Whether it’s your local park or a national park, find a place that you love.

Adopt it and become an advocate for that patch of earth. You can do little things to show your love — pick up trash, pull invasive plants, join a weekend work party. If you have a little more time on your hands, you can do more. Find and comment on projects, get to know staff and advocate for your place.

The more you do, the happier you’ll be.

By intimately connecting with an area, we develop a sense of place that brings meaning and substance to our lives.

“Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants.” Michael Pollan’s oft-repeated quote is good advice on how to eat responsibly. Buy real food, preferably local if possible.

Try to eat lower on the trophic level — that is, more plants and fewer animal products.

By focusing on what you eat, you might start changing other parts of your life until one morning you wake up and realize you are an organic no-till biodynamic gardener.

Support reproductive rights and your fellow humans. Overpopulation is a real concern — there are 7.3 billion humans on earth — and the more room humans take up, the less room there is for other life. You can care about overpopulation without being a racist or a misanthrope. Let’s strive to create a society where people have reproductive choices and only have children when they choose to.

When these children are born, let’s give them a world that is loving, supportive and filled with a diversity of non-human life.

Support your local environmental organizations. You can say I am biased — I am — but give what you can to your local environmental organizations. In our civil society, these groups exist to do the work that you are probably too busy to do — they learn the science, comment on projects and go to court when necessary. In a perfect world, groups like EPIC wouldn’t need to exist; until then, support the watchdog groups that keep our water clean, our forests intact and our air sweet.

Friends of the Eel River Don’t kid yourself that you can shop your way to a healthy planet. Yes, it’s essential to understand that we are not just passive consumers but active players in a world where our choices have consequences for other living beings and the systems we all depend on. Yes, it’s important to make lower-impact choices where we reasonably can, BUT: Broad social change matters. Lowering the individual footprints of the most ecologically conscious members of our vast society will do little to reshape the systems that determine so much of our collective impact. Our individual choices for transportation, energy and food are important, but to make the differences we need to make, we have to act together to make broader social change.

Keep fighting for what’s right. Support effective local organizations fighting the fights that matter. Make the phone calls, write the letters, wave the signs.

Use your political power. Help build the blue wave we need this November to save the country and the planet from the lunatics in power.

Have that uncomfortable conversation with your Trump-loving relatives.

Consider your cannabis consumption.

Grow your weed in (or buy it from) places and ways that don’t impact native salmon and steelhead or wildlife values.

The Schatz Energy Research Center Use green transportation strategies.

Transportation needs differ from house-

hold to household and day to day. Green transportation strategies include shared transit (carpooling and public), person-powered movement (walking, biking and wheeling), consolidated household trips and zero-emission vehicle use (including electric and fuel cell cars).

Shift household energy use to solar. Running heavy electrical loads, such as laundry, during the day supports the integration of solar onto the power grid, while reducing the need for storage investment.

Make energy “visible.” Using a Kill A Watt meter to measure appliances allows you to see your energy use patterns and track down inefficient appliances. You can borrow a Kill A Watt from the Redwood Coast Energy Authority. Also, bring the Schatz Center’s “Watts Up?” education program to your classroom or youth group to learn about power and energy, and how to conserve them.

Integrate clean and renewable energy technologies into your home and workplace. Nearly every home and workplace can become greener. This could involve: installing an electric vehicle charging station in your business parking lot; putting solar panels on your roof; using solar products to illuminate your walkway, garden or porch; replacing incandescent light bulbs with LEDs; solar drying your laundry outside; opting up to 100-percent renewable energy with RCEA.

It’s Alive Kombucha

It’s Alive Kombucha is a family business that was started in 2012, by owners Keil Cronin and Jeri Vigil as a way to introduce Kombucha to the local area. “Keil and I have about 20 years of brewing experience and we set out to introduce Humboldt County to Kombucha and we became the first Kombucha maker in Humboldt County and it just grew from there,” explains Jeri. It’s Alive Kombucha now produces over 1000 varieties of Kombucha and has taps and/or

bottles in over 64 locations.

When Jeri and Keil are not producing Kombucha, they can normally be found in the community or with their three daughters. “We interact with a lot of our local community members whether that be getting products from other local product makers, supporting local non-profits and schools or hanging out with our kids at a basketball game,” explain Keil and Jeri. “We both think it is important to support and help

out whenever we can.”

It’s Alive Kombucha is located at 1612 Old Arcata Road in Bayside and is open for grab and go fills whenever Keil and Jeri are there.

A win for the planet and your plate

By Katie Rose McGourty

The beginnings of a victory garden in recycled milk cartons.

W

hat does gardening have to do with being more environmentally friendly?

Whether you’re a seasoned gardener or just beginning, I’m here to encourage everyone to start or expand their edible landscaping this year. Maybe it will come as a decision of economics or to fulfill as desire to live more lightly on the planet. Maybe it means growing basil on the windowsill or filling raised beds with every vegetable imaginable. In celebration of Mother Earth, there are many ways to lighten our steps using home food production as a tool of sustainability.

We can look to the victory gardening movement as proof that home food production can become a significant supplier of food. During World War II, the victory garden movement began as a campaign to conserve food for our soldiers overseas. With seeds and a planting schedule, America grew its own food right at home.

In one year, home food production met commercial levels. So why not go back to our roots? Yes, it is wonderful to have beautiful organic produce available for purchase at several grocery stores and farmers markets. Isn’t it just more convenient to buy everything we eat?

But what if we decide to change our ways and grow at least some of the things we eat? Our mild maritime climate offers us the opportunity to grow food year round.

Yes, a garden does take time and continued dedication, watering, weeding and harvesting. Like a young child, the garden can’t be left unattended. But is the luxury of being able to walk into a store and buy perfect produce really worth 10 times the price of homegrown — not to mention all the resources expended getting it to the shelf?

Imagine the journey of a carrot to the plate. If the carrot comes from the home

farm, the farmer goes outside, picks the carrot and eats it. Bam! This carrot has high nutrition and delicious taste and texture because the carrot was consumed within moments of it being picked. Now imagine the carrot coming from the agribusiness farm, whether organic or not. The carrot is picked, boxed, shipped, stored, placed on a shelf, purchased, brought home, maybe sits in the fridge, then gets consumed. When the carrot gets to the plate, it’s already been a few days to a week or more since picking. After all that time, it has lower nutrition and a less pleasing taste and texture.

Rather than spending tons of fossil fuel and millions of kilowatt hours on running cold air machines producing nutrient poor food, we could grow the highest quality food available for a lower price. We can cut out a lot of unnecessary trucks and refrigerators by just planting the carrot ourselves. The home farm doesn’t have to be huge, fancy or professionally landscaped. As long as it has soil, regular water and compost, the plants we start as seeds will grow and provide us with countless meals. In addition to being environmentally friendly, home vegetable farming is pretty darn exciting. This time of year, with the planting out of the seeds and waiting for germination, thrills are at an alltime high. And later, what a feat, to simply walk outside and pick our dinner.

The amount of energy and effort we put into our gardens can be hours or minutes. You can buy a few packets of seeds and mix up some home farm potting soil using the recipe below from Richo Chech’s The Medicinal Herb Grower: A Guide for Cultiavting Plants that Heal, Volume 1. Throw them in an old milk container with nail holes punched in the bottoms, a paper egg carton or a toilet paper roll with one end tucked closed. Keep them moist and wait for the first sprouts to pop

up. Voila, the garden is born. You can grow them to maturity in a large terra cotta pot, a wooden barrel, a raised bed or in the flat ground. Plants aren’t really picky where they end up, as long as they have light, water and compost.

So go ahead. Dare to try that radish patch you’ve been thinking about since fifth grade. We all have a little farmer inside. We’ve been growing food as a species for countless generations and once the process gets rolling, we can’t help but become totally hooked into keeping the plants happy and feeding ourselves.

aking a shot of whiskey is a tough job. There are lots of rules laid down by the federal government to make sure “American whiskey” is precisely what the world expects it to be: at least 51 percent fermented grain (corn if you want to call it Bourbon), distilled to no more than 80 percent alcohol by volume and aged at least two years in barrels made of charred virgin oak.

If you want to make environmentally friendly whiskey, it’s even tougher. According to Amy and Steve Bohner of Alchemy Distillery in Arcata, you must adopt an additional set of rules. For starters, lower your energy footprint, use organic ingredients and send little or no waste to the landfill.

“We live in Arcata — we’re environmentalists,” says Steve Bohner, flashing a smile through his ZZ Top-style beard. “Generations after us will appreciate that we took the time ... .”

The Bohners make a living as “green builders” but aspire to be green whiskeymakers, concocting their first planet-pleasing wheat whiskey batch in 2016. They plan to release that 2 year old from its oak barrel over Memorial Day weekend.

In the meantime, they’ve been making un-aged “clear whiskey” and award-winning gin under the Boldt brand in their distillery behind Alchemy Construction.

Here are the seven steps to make whiskey, complete with Alchemy’s eco-minded rules of engagement.

1. Get your grain. Buy local, as much as possible, says Amy Bohner. What you can’t get in Humboldt, get from Northern California or Oregon. You cut out a lot of trucking, with all the accompanying petroleum costs and carbon emissions. Go

to Hindley Ranch in the Mattole Valley, 80 miles away. Forget cheaper grains from Indiana; buy from Camp Grant Ranch along Avenue of the Giants, 54 miles away.

Organic grain is best. Just say “no” to pesticides and genetic modification if you want to preserve the planet’s precious topsoil and heirloom plants.

If you can, repurpose used grain. Alchemy snags day-old bagels from up the street. Los Bagels routinely donates stale product to a local pig farmer and agreed to let the Bohners have the varieties best suited for whiskey: plain, multigrain, poppy seed and sesame seed. The pigs will happily get the grain later in a form known as “spent mash.”

2. Mill your grain. Steve Bohner has a rule about buying American equipment: Do it. Shipping from China burns a lot of fossil fuel. Use re-purposed gear whenever possible, like a wood chipper off Craigslist Alchemy uses to mill stale bagels. Or use a friend’s mill — Rhonda Wiedenbeck also buys wheat from Hindley Ranch and has a mill for her business, Beck’s Bakery. When you buy your own Sasquatch roller mill, buy American.

3. Cook. Your local or re-purposed grain needs to be cooked in water between 150-190 degrees to convert starches to sugar. Procure a U.S.-made cooker from Kentucky. Instead of running fresh drinking water through cooling coils in the cooker, keep re-circulating the water you’ve got stored in the 3,000-gallon tank you picked up from the neighboring scrapyard.

4. Ferment. Add yeast to your sugary mash and move it into your U.S.-made fermenter for three to five days. The yeast will eat the sugar and convert it into

alcohol.

5. Distill. Move the mash into your Kentucky-made still and boil until steaming. Alcohol turns to steam before water, so you can condense it back to into liquid in the bell-shaped separation tank, or “spirit safe.” Donate the spent mash to a farmer (remember those hungry pigs?) instead of sending it off to the landfill or trying to flush it into the sewer. The Bohners trade their mash to an area farmer for eggs, vegetables or even a whole pig.

6. Store the whiskey. Now you can bottle your un-aged clear whiskey and sell it directly to customers — up to three bottles per customer per day. Use washable glasses and re-usable glass straws for your tastings. It’s hard to find local bottle-makers so you might have to buy them from out of state.

If you’re determined to make straight whiskey by aging it two years or more, you must buy charred oak barrels. Barrels made from sustainably harvested, organic oak cost three times more than the mass-produced variety. Amy Bohner says bite the bullet.

“Our customers are willing to pay a little more for a handcrafted, local product,” she says. “It’s not a marketing scheme — we all believe it’s better for the next generation.”

Alchemy tries to make up part of the added barrel costs by procuring re-purposed barrel racks for stacking and letting local breweries give the single-use barrels a recycled life storing beer.

7. Sell to customers. Federal regulations require whiskeymakers to sell product to retailers and taverns through licensed distributors. You’d prefer to haul it around in a Prius but it’s out of your hands. Alchemy uses a local beer distributor. They’ve found markets in Oregon and there’s always the temptation to sell the Boldt brand nationwide.

That would take a lot of fossil fuel.

“Our intention is for the distillery to be our only job one day,” says Steve Bohner, who still pays his bills with Alchemy Construction. “If there’s enough interest — sales — on the West Coast, then we’re done. If we have product sitting on pallets, we’ll reach out further.” ●

Vinyl for the Soul

By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

T

his week includes an important day for your local music scene, sandwiched right between 4/20 and Earth Day. It’s Record Store Day, a barely decade-old bridge between the music collecting public, independent record stores (what’s left of them) and the recording industry (what’s left of it). Why would I mention an ostensibly commercial holiday in the middle of spring when I am not usually very fond of capitalism in general? Because I believe that local record stores, like independent bookstores, are invaluable to us as a community, serving as a hub for information about live music, new bands and old, otherwise forgotten gems from our cultural archive. And I believe that listening to and collecting vinyl records and tape cassettes is good for you. Nothing is quite like that record scratch and hi-fi hum. As for strictly digital formats? They have their use but generally they remind me of these lines by Neil Young: “I heard a perfect echo die/ Into an anonymous wall of digital sound/ Somewhere deep inside/Of my soul.”

Don’t do that to your ears or your soul.

Thursday It’s another vinyl showdown in Old Town tonight at 8 p.m. at The Siren’s Song (free).

The weekly 33 and a Third rap, funk and hip-hop sock-hop is curated by turntablists Goldylocks and Fade for your dancing pleasure, and if you happen to want more out of the shindig then remember that the mic is hot for freelance rhymers of all kinds.

Friday It’s the closing performance for the 25th season of the Eureka Chamber Music Series tonight at 7 p.m. at Calvary Lutheran Church ($30/$15 for Calvary Lutheran Church members/$10 seniors/$5 children).

The Ariana Quartet will work through a program with Shostakovich’s Quartet No. 1 in C major as well as Ravel’s Quartet in F Major, then take a breather before concluding with Brahms’ Piano Quintet in F Minor, with a little help from pianist Tian Ying. If you don’t know anything about

Stonefield plays the Miniplex at 8 p.m. on Saturday, April 21.

the featured composers I would like to point you in the direction of Julian Barnes’ excellent novel The Noise of Time, which is partly about Dmitri Shostakovich’s immense and unique talent being sloughed off at the edges and boxed up by the mad machine of Stalinism as he attempts to work and survive inside the arbitrary lines of brutality and dumb chaos.

Also at 7 p.m., there’s a good hip-hop show at The Siren’s Song, featuring a (mostly) West Coast cast. The Bay Area’s Z-Man is an MC on the renowned Hieroglyphics Label while DJ True Justice hails from Berkeley. Oso Negro and DJ Surebert roll out from Oregon and the lovely Eva Rhymes brings her voice all the way from Baltimore. Together they have banded for the Clock Strikes Thirteen Tour — a 1984 reference — and intend to entertain our fair people on this most holy and hokey of weed holidays. Local flavor provided by Nac-One and C4RB0N CROO ($10).

Saturday

Winnipeg’s Mulligrub makes the trek south from the Cree land of muddy water to play its brand of emo pop for you at the Outer Space tonight. Fellow travelers Señor Fin from Seattle bring a big, hushed and pretty rock sound down from rain town and local songwriting act Blood Honey (now with drums!) rounds out the bill nicely. And 7 p.m. for $7 sound like some lucky numbers to me.

The Miniplex hosts an international night of prog-ed up psych-rock vapor trails as the four Findlay sisters from fabulous Australia bring their band Stonefield to the stage at 8 p.m. ($10). Local Arcata phantasms Ms. God weave a tale of cre-

ation for you, as well.

The Monster Women invites you to a vinyl LP release show at the Siren’s Song this evening at 9 p.m. (price TBA). Providing support for this wax track party will be Arcata’s cool two-car-and-one-synth garage band act Super Senior and homegrown guerillas Blackplate, fresh off a pilgrimage to Chi-town to record with Mr. Steve Albini.

Sunday (Earth Day!) It’s another quiet Sunday here behind the redwood curtain so the bigger shows we have flash through on the weekend from time to time are simply not here at the moment. However, it is Earth Day so let’s remember to enjoy our massive alpha mother anyway while we are still allowed a collective purchase upon her wild bosom.

The Bayside Community Hall is hosting the 10th annual electric vehicle show from 8 a.m. to noon and $8 or $5 for kids and seniors will get you breakfast and music from The Vanishing Pints, which is a band name that is either suited more toward cocktail hour or a comment upon the welcome disappearance of gasoline as we eschew the combustible engines and go electric.

I would also like to remind you all that the Humboldt Flea Market is going on today at Redwood Acres Fairgrounds starting at 8 a.m. as well and the $2 admission will offer anyone the chance to find your own gently used gong to bang or drum to beat to find your own groove in the chaos of our shared home.

Monday Our live punk rock entertainment comes from a faraway place tonight as

Bogotá, Colombia’s own quartet Primer Regimen takes over The Siren’s Song for an evening of ’80s influenced hardcore.

Usual suspects The ChainLinks, The Scum Lourdes and The Cissies strut it up as well.

Eight p.m. is the hour, $6 is the price.

Tuesday Humbrews hosts a jammy evening of Americana and roots music as California Kind plays a set of semi-improvisational takes on traditional U.S. styles at 8 p.m. ($20). Join longtime jam scene regulars Kate Skene, Barry Sless, Rob Barraco, Pete Sears and John Molo for an evening of groovy, twangy fun.

Wednesday

Modern jazz tricksters LD51 haunt the cozy confines of The Speakeasy tonight at 8 p.m. for an evening of free music.

Meanwhile, Whomp Whomp Wednesday at The Jam is curated tonight by electro maestros HullabaloO, bouquet, Norman and Little Brain. Doors are at 10 p.m. and it’s only $5 before 10:30 p.m., $10 after. Viva. 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@northcoastjournalcom.

Godwit Days are here again. The Godwit Days Spring Migration Bird Festival, a week-long festival celebrating Humboldt’s favorite shore bird, the marbled Godwit, as well as the abundant and diverse wildlife that cohabitates with it, kicks off April 18 with dozens of bird walks, field trips, lectures, workshops and activities in and around the county through April 24.

The festival brings a few celebrities from the birding world each year. This year Sharon “Birdchick” Stiteler, author of 1,001 Secrets Every Birder Should Know, and Jack Dumbacher, curator of birds and mammals at the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco, join the festivities.

While many of the events require registration and take place out in the trenches, mudflats and waterways, there are two days of activities at Arcata Community Center’s Main Hall, free and open to the public. On Friday, April 20 stop by for the festival’s opening reception from 3 to 8 p.m., which includes the Bird of the Year awards, recognition for Mad River Alliance and keynote speaker Jack Dumbacher.

On Saturday and Sunday, April 20-21, the Main Hall opens at 10 a.m. See live birds of prey from the Humboldt Wildlife Care Center from 11 a.m.-2 p.m., peruse vendor booths, check out the art show/gallery by Arcata Artisans and the Student Bird Art & Nature Writing Contest entries on display. There’s also a silent auction, family nature crafts and food available from the Godwit Café.

For more information and to register for events, visit www.godwitdays.org or call 826-7050.

Pod People Welcome To Night Vale, the twice-monthly podcast about a small desert town where weird is the norm, comes to Van Duzer Theatre on Sunday, April 22 at 7 p.m. at ($30) as a live, stand-alone show, perfect for newcomers and long-time listeners alike.

The popular series takes the form of a local community radio broadcast providing spooky updates for the fictional desert town Night Vale. Announcements are delivered in soothing, reassuring tones by friendly narrator, Cecil (Cecil Baldwin). He invites audiences to take a peek behind the Vale with weather reports, updates from the Sheriff’s Secret Police and cultural events, each tinged with a bit of the bizarre, a sliver of the surreal. He drolly imparts that there’s a faceless old woman who secretly lives in your home, always there — just out of your sight. And then, after a few seconds of hair-raising creepiness, the story turns on a whimsical dime and audiences are charmed again by the curious, ordinary goings on of the town.

Baldwin and guests — plus live music from the series’ musician Disparition — recreate the podcast’s eerie hilarity in ALL HAIL, a story about fan-favorite The Glow Cloud, a mysterious entity that rains down dead animals and also happens to be the school board president. Welcome to Night Vale.

The uninitiated can poke around the town with the starter’s guide on the podcast’s website www.welcometonightvale.com before heading to the show on Sunday.

To the Dogs

Johnson’s clunkers and Anderson’s animation

By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

RAMPAGE. Dear Mr. Johnson (née The Rock): Your fans are small but we are many. You are one but you are great, and you carry on your crafted shoulders our hopes and dreams. We love you and we are worried about you. Many of the movies you are making are borderline nonsense. We understand you’ve gotta be on your hustle — movies, TV, hours in the gym and on social media. It’s superhuman.

It’s part of why we love you and why you are a role model for us. But do you have to choose stupid movies? The ratio of bad to good is slipping and there are troubling rumors you might not be in the next Fast and the Furious. Vin and Tyrese do seem like primadonnas, but really?

Anywhoozle, we will watch you in whatever you make. We just hope you can look into scripts that aren’t based on old video games or reboots. Something that might be as good as you are in it.

Love ya, big guy.

Like the anonymous authors of the entreaty above [Editor’s note: This was definitely written by John Bennett], I am conflicted about the sweeping, ostensibly successful career of Dwayne Johnson. Gigantic, quick, unrelentingly charismatic, he’s made himself over as an all-caps MOVIE STAR and the new hardest working man in show business. He’s deeply involved throughout the creative process on both sides of the camera, fostering properties from their inception through to completion. There’s a lot to like but he consistently does unlikable projects. He turns them into hits but he wears away a little more of his credibility each time.

The latest example of this disturbing trend, Rampage, finds him again collaborating with director Brad Peyton, who shares the blame for Journey 2: The Mysterious Island (2012) and San Andreas (2015), which, with the passage of time, seem ever-more alarming signposts on Mr. Johnson’s career path to The Suck.

Based on a limited-scope video game I have never played, Rampage centers on an ex-special forces primatologist named Davis Okoye (Johnson), who prefers animals to people. When his friend George,

an albino gorilla he rescued, is afflicted by pathogen-bearing space debris (remnants of the Energyne corporation’s failed extraterrestrial laboratory), Davis takes it personally. There isn’t much he can do at first because George grows exponentially, with an attendant uptick in violent rage.

(Ditto a wolf and alligator separately exposed, who for some reason also acquire some recessive traits like wings and spikes all over their bodies). Eventually, he finds allies in Dr. Kate Caldwell (Naomie Harris), a disgraced geneticist run afoul of Energyne’s sibling chief executives, and Harvey Russell (Jeffrey Dean Morgan), a slowtalkin’, gun-totin’, scenery-chewin’ good ol’ boy Fed. They band together to stop the angry animals and a trigger-happy Army general from destroying Chicago.

That’s it. It’s pointless and the effects aren’t even that good. A tremendous cast is wasted on a nonstarter idea that sucks the fun out of something that should have had fun as its only selling point. PG13. 107M.

companion Spots. Aided by a ragtag collection of formerly prominent canines, he sets out on a hero’s journey across the variegated wastes of Trash Island as an escalating drama of political intrigue unfolds back in Megasaki City.

Isle of Dogs is, of course, a noteworthy technical achievement, the longest stop-motion feature of all time. But it also showcases Anderson at his storytelling best: detailed beyond belief, visually stunning, brimming with equally delicate humor and sadness. It’s also a clever homage to and send-up of Japanese cinema, both reverent and cannily self-aware. PG13.

ISLE OF DOGS. Wes Anderson’s Bottlerocket (1996) marked the undeniable arrival of a distinctive voice. Since then, Anderson has proven himself one of the most consistent auteurs of the modern era; if you like a Wes Anderson movie, you like Wes Anderson movies. Of all his work, though, his first foray into animation was, to me, the least satisfying. Fantastic Mr. Fox (2009), adapted from a Roald Dahl story I love, while funny, clever and technically impressive, left me lukewarm. So I was a little skeptical about Isle of Dogs, which uses an evolved version of the same Rankin/Bass-inspired stop-motion animation. But it’s technically stunning and tells a compelling story, and I enjoyed Isle even more than I thought I might.

In an imagined near-future Japan, the nation’s despotic, cat-loving ruling clan has ghettoized dogs (most of whom are afflicted with a mysterious chronic ailment) on Trash Island, with a sinister long-term eugenics agenda. The dogs, voiced by a delightful host of Anderson’s regular troop, have separated into uneasy factions, fighting over scraps for survival.

Into their midst crash lands 12-year-old Atari (Koyu Rankin), in search of his faithful

Legal Notices NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE OF Brenda L. Basler, aka Brenda Lee Basler CASE NO. PR180085 To all heirs, beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of Brenda L. Basler, aka Brenda Lee Basler A PETITION FOR PROBATE has been filed by Petitioner Robert Basler In the Superior Court of California, County of Humboldt. The petition for probate requests that Robert Basler be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

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 May 3, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. at the Superior Court of California, County of Humboldt, 825 Fifth Street, Eureka, in Dept.: 6.

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.

Magnificent Frigate Birds

By Barry Evans

fieldnotes@northcoastjournal.com

F

rigate birds are a surprising study in contrasts. On the one hand, I admire them gliding effortlessly high overhead, following the updraft above a Pacific beach in southern Mexico. On the other hand, here’s a male “magnificent” frigate bird on the Galapagos, perched clumsily with his ungainly red gular pouch inflated. It’s a chick magnet: The bigger and brighter the pouch, the more likely he is to attract females.

The surprises don’t end there. For instance, they’re seabirds that can’t swim, unlike all other birds that make their living on or by the ocean. That’s because their uropygial glands (the ones that produce oil that keeps plumage waterproof) are tiny and almost useless; frigates would get waterlogged if they landed on water.

And despite having huge wings — up to 7 feet wing tip to wing tip — and the largest wing-area-to-body-weight ratio of any bird, the bones needed to keep those wings extended are almost non-existent, being air-filled. A frigate bird’s bones account for less than 5 percent of its weight. Another fun fact: At night, far from land, each half of the bird’s brain takes turns sleeping.

The three most common species of frigate birds are found virtually everywhere across the Earth’s tropical and subtropical oceans. Individually, their range is vast, too. Able to soar on warm air currents for weeks on end, they can roam thousands of miles without ever landing.

One was tracked by satellite over the Indian Ocean for two months at altitudes up to 12,000 feet. Another flew 2,700 miles from Europa Island in the Mozambique Channel to the Maldive Islands — all without touching down. Of course, they have to land to breed and raise their chicks, a

lengthy process (one of the longest of any bird), which is why they only breed every two years, with the female laying a single egg. They’re also long-living — one was recorded at over 44 years old.

The secret to their endurance over the oceans is summed up in two words: flying fish. Flying fish deserve a column of their own but suffice it to say that the ability to “fly” — that is, to glide for hundreds of feet over the surface of the water — is their strategy to avoid getting eaten by dolphins or tuna. When frigate birds are around, though, the fish are caught, in the words of naturalist David Attenborough, “between the Devil and the deep blue sea.” During flight, flying fish are at the mercy of frigate birds, which snag the fish in mid-air with apparent ease — check “flying fish hunt” on YouTube.

Eating protein-rich flying fish (also squid) is an efficient way for frigates to obtain energy. Their stomach enzymes break down protein into amino acids, which, once more bodily processes have removed the nitrogen, are similar to glucose. Rather than the quick energy release obtained directly from glucose, protein supplies longer-lasting energy, as useful for a bird’s weeks-long flight as they are for human marathon runners. Hence protein bars.

Klutzy on land, unable to land on water, frigate birds more than make up for these disadvantages when they’re aloft, week after week after week. If you’re headed to a Mexican beach soon, remember to look up. l Barry Evans (barryevans9@yahoo.com) puts frigate birds, Breitling Orbiter 3 and Solar Impulse 2 in the same category.
