Editor: Letters here and on social media about my role as Fifth District supervisor concerning the withdrawal of Mercer-Fraser’s permit application for a cannabis refinery at its Glendale aggregate plant on the Mad River are far removed from the facts (Mailbox, May 3). Here’s the truth with no hidden agenda and straight from the source.

Let’s be clear, I did not ever support the permit application in public or privately.

The decision to remap the plant parcel was to bring its ancient zone designation (agricultural) into compliance with the General Plan Update because there are historical vested uses on this property. It is an industrial operation, the norm for almost all businesses in the area. That happened long before we were born.

For months I spoke with Mercer-Fraser about the problems concerning its plan to refine cannabis near the river. These weren’t “negotiations,” which imply a trade-off, but almost daily discussions that continued until Mercer-Fraser announced it would withdraw the permit. I’m relieved and even proud of the result and thank Mercer-Fraser for making that decision, however difficult it may have been for them.

While Mercer-Fraser says publicly the permit is gone for good, I’ve made it clear in every way possible that, if in the highly unlikely event it was resubmitted at any time I’m supervisor, my vote would never be in favor, and I’d vigorously encourage the other supervisors to vote it down.

The Fifth District is blessed with some of the greatest water resources in the nation. Doing all that’s possible to make our rivers clean and full of fish, like the Klamath I grew up on, is a deeply personal goal, one that guides my efforts as the Fifth District supervisor.

Editor: A visiting friend just shared a copy of the Journal with me. I no longer live in California but can not get through this day without commenting on your “Canni-bias” article (April 19).

Tony Smithers’ comment about millennials and wanting “to reach that new generation of consumers ...” (via heavy marketing of marijuana, pot, or to be politically correct, “cannabis”) is among the most idiotic things I’ve ever read. Specifically, because it follows what he said just before that: “(millennials) will prioritize travel over buying a house, paying bills, student loans.”

So, apparently, his wisdom is to market pot

Townsend’s Solitaire o townsend’s solitaire you are likely unaware how much you stir the air – when we see you there robins perched upon the height of douglas firs in sweet delight compose verse at day’s last light that begins and ends o townsend’s solitaire — Monte Merrick

and further add to irresponsible behavior, debt and use of what little money they might have? Brilliant idea. As the saying goes, “He must be smoking something.”

Never mind what Smithers said about the baby boomers and alluding to the idea of scooping up their “disposable income.”

Smithers is obviously all about money and cares nothing for the long-term wellbeing of fellow human beings; and more specifically, “kids,” as is anyone else who agrees with his plot. As the cannabis growers and dispensers gather more wealth, the kids, along with users of any age, get thinner wallets as their earnings either go up in “smoke” or simply go to “waste.” Pun intended.

As drug use everywhere grows, I feel sorrow and heartache for the younger generations who arrive on the scene to potentially see fewer responsible, clear-thinking and maybe even poorer and poorer-educated adults in important and necessary roles to make the world function. The vital role of parenting and the medical field immediately come to mind. How very sad.

Of course it does seem small to some, but many perceive the use of drugs as another rung lower in the downward spiral of humankind, regardless of what you call it or how pretty you package it. May God save us from ourselves.

Humboldt County is not the only location with beautiful trees and natural surroundings. To comment on one of your survey questions, I would feel less safe on your roads and less comfortable in general with your increased sale and push of recreational use of cannabis.

Upcycle to Remove McKinley Editor: The marijuana industry is changing, the snow in the mountains is melting and equipment is rusting, some of it never to be used again.

Rather than littering the mountainside, why not donate this equipment to a good cause?

The Art of Removing Art is a DreamMaker program of The Ink People Center for the Arts. The goals of this project are threefold: First, to raise the $65,000 required to remove the statue of McKinley from the Arcata Plaza (“Arcata Sets Meeting on McKinley’s Removal,” posted online April 6); second, to research the phenomena of racist and otherwise offensive public art being removed from cities around the country during the past two years, with the aim of writing a “how-to” book for community activists and local officials; and third, to take other actions aimed at reducing or eliminating racism.

While everyone tightly regulates their time and money, many people have an over-abundance of stuff (think of all the storage facilities in Humboldt County), no-longer-needed equipment on farms and homesteads in the mountains and, in town, stuff in your garage, in your yard, etc. And let’s not forget about that old pickup truck or car that you no longer use.

Editor: I was troubled by your recent cover page showing girls, heads bowed, under the title “‘We’re Scared’” (March 22). A caption that casts these girls as meek, mild, frightened, helpless — passive lambs to the (not always proverbial) slaughter.

Yet these girls, and the many others that stood with them, were part of a proactive youth-led initiative against gun violence in schools. Not so meek, not so mild. They organized, mobilized and took to the streets. Their heads were bowed in honor of those killed in Florida.

To re-cast that solemn (and strong and proactive) moment under the banner “We’re scared” seemed a cheap journalistic trick. A visual come-on to the predator set and a way to undercut these girls at exactly the moment that they are actively standing up for change.

Fear is a debilitating emotion. Women and girls can’t make our lives small enough to guarantee our own personal safety since, statistically speaking, most danger comes from those we know.

Some fear is essential and adaptive.

But fear should have a small place in a life well lived. Rather than box our teenage girls into a small, scared, meek place, let’s give them the skills and the knowledge to move from “I’m scared” to “I’m strong.”

Twenty-eight local girls ages 12 to 16 took a great step in that direction last weekend, completing a 12-hour women’s self-defense intensive for teen girls at The Sanctuary in Arcata. On May 19 and 20, more girls will stand up and do the same.

Not because anyone should have to defend themselves against violence but because it helps to have a few tools in your belt to walk through your fears … right out of that small box … to discover that, overwhelmingly, the world is a friendly place.

Bella Holmes, Arcata Editor’s Note: The headline of the referenced story, “We’re Scared,” which packaged excerpts from dozens of short opinion pieces submitted by local high school students on the topic of gun violence, was taken from one of the submissions. We chose this headline because we felt it accurately reflected a theme across most — if not all — of the submissions we received, namely that our Continued on page 8 »

high school students are afraid of a mass shooting occurring locally, that to them it doesn’t feel like an abstract possibility but a tangible reality.

A General Nuisance Editor: Just what we don’t need … A Dollar General “convenience” store selling sugared products, canned and processed foods, beer and the like (“So Many Questions,” April 26). And, guess where this store is to be located? Right across the street from McKinleyville High School.

The store location also abuts the Ocean West Senior Village, residents of which will have to deal with the impacts of such a store on a daily basis. While there may be a few benefits to having one of these stores in our neighborhood, the negative effects will obviously outweigh the positive as has been proven in other neighborhoods. The added traffic on the already very busy Murray Road, the security lights from the store, the high potential for increased crime in the area, the ever-present trash and litter that will accumulate, the associated noise, the safety of the high school children crossing the street and the many other negatives Build to edge of the document Margins are just a safe area

that accompany this type of business make this a very poor decision.

A new Dollar General (corporate) store may create a half-dozen minimum wage jobs but the negative economic impact to existing competitors in the area can be far-reaching, resulting in loss of business and ultimately vacant buildings and blight in the community. If you, too, are against such a store in our community, let your elected officials know it. Remind them that they work for you, and that you vote!

‘A Turd-Whirled County’ Editor: In the April 26 North Coast Journal issue, our gifted editor Thadeus Greenson spells it out again, as usual (“So Many Questions”). He writes, “When asked about the biggest environmental challenges facing the county, both candidates pointed to the cannabis industry, particularly the estimated 10,000 or so farms that haven’t taken any steps toward compliance.” Ten thousand noncompliant farms — unbelievable! And “... there are supervisors who have taken large campaign contributions

from the cannabis industry.”

Think: Many of our pristine waterways and hillsides are poisoned by oil, herbicides and pesticides and miscellaneous filth.

The county is awash with a culture of illicit turbulence and traffic. We are on our way toward becoming a Turd-Whirled County.

How much more crap can we accommodate? One supervisor candidate has not — and will not — take contributions from large players in the cannabis industry. Find out who that person is and vote accordingly. It is time to flush the pot!

Vote Bass!

Editor: Operating Engineers Local #3 District 40 is supporting Virginia Bass for Fourth District supervisor in the 2018 election.

Virginia has been a staunch supporter of job creation in Humboldt County and has worked tirelessly to bring more projects to our area. In her position as vice president of the California State Association of Counties, she has worked closely with labor unions on legislation that benefits all workers. Her expertise is vital to responsible growth in Humboldt County.

Vote Madrone!

Editor: It concerns me that for eight years, our county Board of Supervisors has often operated with a 4-to-1 voting block that represents a limited set of values and opinions, and tends not to engage the wide range of scientific and academic knowledge abundant here. Or when scientists and experts are engaged, the weight of their evidence is not reflected in the final votes.

I would appreciate a Fifth District supervisor who truly wants to listen to and weigh all perspectives before making decisions for our district and county. My vote always goes to candidates who solicit expert advice and give serious consideration to opinions from outside a like-minded circle of associates. This June, in the Fifth District, that candidate is Steve Madrone.

Look at his record, hear him at the debates. Then see if you wouldn’t agree with me. It’s time to vote for a change.

Catherine B Hanafi, McKinleyville Editor: I want a supervisor who knows what it’s like for people from all walks of life. Personally, I’m impressed with Steve Madrone.

I think Madrone has had the kind of life and done the kind of work that will lead to implementing plans that will help our community and help our children grow up safe and be better people.

I like what Steve Madrone says about young people needing more healthy activities and job training to prevent crime in our community. I have a child and worry about the trouble kids can get into these days, especially as many parents aren’t able to spend as much time with them. Teachers can’t deal with all these problems in the classrooms — we need more afterschool activities that can help children with social and emotional development and to grow into productive members of society.

It really is time for a change!

Jennifer Green, McKinleyville Editor: Steve Madrone is visionary. He sees growing job opportunities for industries of the future, like technology, tourism and restoration, and he sees new possibilities for industries of the past, like fishing, farming and timber. He recently described how timber could use carbon credits to incentivize longer harvest cycles, making a higher-value product while protecting the

forest environment.

Timber and marijuana have shown our vulnerability to the “rape and run” tactics of outside opportunists. From Maxxam to Russian cartels, short-term extraction of natural resources has left us a degraded environment and a mess to clean up.

Steve Madrone is committed to having clear, consistent land use requirements to keep the playing field level for both small and large players, and to keep the fate of our county’s health in the hands of the people who live here. He is the strong advocate we need. Check him out at www. votemadrone.com Sam King, McKinleyville Editor: I feel it is important to urge those in the Fifth District to consider voting for Madrone. His work teaching forestry and watershed management at Humboldt State University and his work as executive director of the Mattole Salmon Group show his commitment to a healthy ecosystem.

Also, he has helped to create jobs by attaining $20 million in grant funds for our county.

He refuses to take large campaign contributions from the cannabis industry. How-

ever, he does see the need to do more to create a system that will make it easier for the small farmer to come into compliance.

Dianne Rowland, Trinidad Editor: Humboldt County is familiar with politicians who help their friends. Well-connected cannabis investors reap the lion’s share of profits, while the economic base of the county — small, environmentally-minded Mom and Pops — are hounded by county ordinances meant to curb outrageous grows.

The county got it wrong and we pay the price. Mercer-Fraser’s sweetheart deal, brokered, then backtracked, by Supervisor Sundberg is another example.

Madrone approaches cannabis as business, where incentives for good practices elevate the responsible above the abusive ones. (“It’s What, Not How, You Grow,” March 23, 2017.)

Sound public policy depends on a commitment over the long-term for community health. Madrone’s stellar work on behalf of our Mattole salmon is just one of the gifts his firm, practiced hand has given our local economy.

This year Chinook returned to the

Mattole in record numbers, the fruit of dedication by Madrone and those who want this county to be the place our grandchildren proudly call “home.”

What we did — and didn’t — learn from the state’s audit of skilled nursing facilities

By Linda Stansberry

B

linda@northcoastjournal.com

rius Healthcare, LLC, did nothing illegal when its local skilled nursing facilities spent millions of dollars on related party transactions, according to a state auditor’s report on the practice that was released May 1.

In 2015, Brius spent $65.7 million on services such as building leases, medical supplies and administrative services from companies also owned by its CEO Shlomo Rechnitz or members of his immediate family. Rechnitz, who has been named in several wrongful death cases related to allegations of substandard patient care, is a self-proclaimed billionaire whose company owns 79 skilled nursing facilities across California. Brius obtained five such facilities in Humboldt County in 2011 and holds a virtual monopoly in the region. In recent years, Brius was seen as exploiting that monopoly to bargain for increased MediCal reimbursement, refusing to take patients in 2015 and threatening to shut down three facilities in 2016, sending patients’ families scrambling to find places hundreds of miles away for their fragile

10 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, May 10, 2018 • northcoastjournal.com

loved ones. The 2016 standoff between Brius and the region’s MediCal administrator, Partnership HealthPlan, played out in dueling press releases and headlines, with state Sen. Mike McGuire and Assemblymember Jim Wood taking strong stances against what McGuire referred to as “extortion.” In June, the pair went before the state Joint Legislative Audit Committee to request a comprehensive audit of related party transactions and state oversight of patient care. When the report came out, McGuire issued a press release calling it “scathing.” But Mark Johnson, Brius’ attorney, says the report exonerated the company. So, who’s right?

The answer comes down to whether the money spent on related party transactions translates to poor patient care. Johnson says the audit confirmed that there’s no correlation between Brius’ related party transactions and the quality of care provided to residents. But Tim Needham, an attorney with the local law firm Janssen, Malloy LLP, who has brought four wrongful death lawsuits against Brius facilities alleging substandard care, disagrees.

“If the money goes to related parties, it doesn’t go to care,” says Needham. “It’s that simple. If the money is being funneled out, it’s not supporting care.”

Needham is currently representing two wrongful death cases related to alleged patient neglect — two others, meanwhile, have been settled out of court. Two of the four patients included in the lawsuits died from untreated bed sores that Needham alleges were directly related to poor staffing levels.

Data from the state audit does show a dismal record of patient care at Brius facilities. The number of deficiencies or citations issued by the California Department of Public Health to skilled nursing facilities industrywide rose by 31 percent between 2006 and 2015. Brius, the state’s largest provider, received more federal deficiencies and state citations compared to the rest of the industry, roughly twice as many serious federal deficiencies as either of the next two largest state providers. According to the report, Rechnitz attributes this to his strategy of buying already-troubled and/or failing facilities, saying his “business model leads to a higher number of deficiencies due to the condition of the facilities and the significant time it takes to turn them around.”

The majority of the report’s censure comes down on the state, with the auditor’s office referring to public health’s oversight of these facilities as “inadequate.” While the number of deficiencies identified by inspectors rose — deficiencies that in Humboldt County included problems with resident safety, substantiated cases of patient abuse, insufficient staffing and insufficient supplies — the number of penalties handed down by the state decreased at a corresponding rate — 34 percent. In fact, the auditor’s office found that the CDPH only issued citations for 15 percent of the most serious deficiencies in skilled nursing facilities between 2006 and 2015.

When asked about this discrepancy, the chief of field operations for the CDPH’s long-term care division cited the high burden of proof for state citations as one reason. Unexplored in the report were the often ineffective results of state penalties, usually administered as fines. CDPH fined Humboldt facilities $28,200 in 2016 and that number jumped to $118,000 the following year, with many of the fines related to patient care. However, according to previous Journal investigations, it’s not unusual for operators to challenge fines in court and eventually see them reduced or dropped.

In terms of exoneration, the state did find that, due to Health Care Services’ audit process, MediCal funds are not

contributing to profits from related party transactions. In fact, the companies usually take a loss on MediCal patients, who are often longer-term residents of these facilities who have exhausted their federal MediCare coverage, according to the report. Despite this, the net gains of California’s largest three for-profit skilled nursing companies studied by the state continued to grow, going from less than $10 million in 2006 to between $35 million and $54 million by 2015. This was largely due to related

party expenses, which in Brius’ case rose by about 600 percent per bed between 2007 and 2015. (According to a report from the California Attorney General’s Office, Brius reported $77 million in profits from its California facilities in 2014.)

Some advocates worry that the poor financial return from long-term MediCal patients may result in facilities turning these patients away and focusing attention instead on short-term MediCare patients.

Long-Term Care Omsbudsman Program

Coordinator Suzi Fregeau reports that she is receiving calls from family members who were unable to place their loved ones in local skilled nursing facilities, having been told it was due to “staffing issues.”

Mike Wasserman, a geriatrician recently hired as CEO for Rockport Healthcare Services, which manages Brius’ Humboldt facilities, disputes the idea that Brius is turning away long-term stay patients.

The County Needs You

By John Heckel

T

his is the time of year when everyone tells us how important it is to vote. Politicians and journalists remind us of the many historically narrow election results of the past. Our very own Humboldt County supervisors appear at town hall meetings, desperate to distinguish themselves from their opponents, while attempting to remain cordial and civil.

Our newspapers are filled with letters to the editor attempting to persuade us why we should vote for Bass, Burkhart, Lyons, Sundberg, or Madrone, and reporters and editors spend column inch after column inch attempting to enlighten us as to their differences (“So Many Questions,” April 26).

What does not get much press at this time of the year, and what may be of much greater importance, is the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury. The 2017-2018 term is coming to an end. The deadline for applications to serve on the 2018-2019 grand jury is the end of May. There are no letters to the editor urging us to volunteer, no column inch after column inch informing us of past grand juries and the reports they filed and there certainly is no investigative analysis of the county’s response to those reports.

In the spirit of full disclosure, I served on our civil grand jury for two years (20142016). The second year I was privileged to serve as the foreperson. Serving on the Humboldt County Civil Grand Jury was a truly amazing experience and I learned a thing or two about county governance.

Good people staff our county and municipal governments and agencies. Many of them are underpaid and underappreciated. I also came to appreciate the demands we place on them; demands that, from my perspective, might very well be unreasonable and impossible to achieve.

We live in an age of ever-increasing complexity. Attempting to understand and deal energetically and creatively with that complexity, within the current structure, might very well be impossible. Without the active participation of a county civil grand jury, I know it would be impossible.

For the people of Humboldt County, the grand jury has become the critical agency in their search for better and more efficient governance.

Nineteen ordinary people devoting a year of their lives to bettering ours; that is a civil grand jury. Not only letting us know what is wrong with the county mental health department but suggesting concrete plans on how to fix it (2016 report). Not only alerting us that the county is not in compliance with Americans with Disabilities Act guidelines but also outlining a plan to bring us into compliance (2016 report). Read past grand jury reports yourself, and please also read the county’s official responses to those reports. They are all available on the county website: www.humboldtgov. org/510/Grand-Jury.

Voting is important; understanding the differences between candidates running for supervisor is, I guess, important. Having a fully impaneled, energetic and committed civil grand jury is critical.

Applications are available on the county website until the end of May. It truly could be one of the most meaningful experiences of your life. l Applications for prospective civil grand jurors can be found online — https://humboldtgov.org/518/Grand-Jury-Forms — or in the grand jury room of the Humboldt County Courthouse, 825 Fifth St. in Eureka.

Strangers on the Road My hometown has changed.

Or maybe I have.

By Linda Stansberry linda@northcoastjournal.com

aybe it’s because I had just finished re-reading a news story about a family member’s murder. Maybe it’s because I had just written up a press release about a homicide investigation. Maybe it’s just the road — it’s such a terrible, long, pock-marked, winding, bone-jarring road. Whatever the reason, I did not want to drive out to Honeydew on Thursday night. But I was expected and so I went, stress-eating a sleeve of small, cheap donuts as I took the Dyerville exit that has signified “home” for 35 years.

I was thinking about the woman I had picked up near the gravel switchbacks a few months earlier.

I always stop for women on the side of the road, whether they flag me down or not. I stop because I recognize them as former versions of myself. They are sometimes shoeless, drunk and crying, or sober and grim. Eleven years ago I was in a relationship like that, although I didn’t know enough at the time to call it abuse.

If the women want to talk, I ask them the questions I have learned are universal.

Does he want to know where you are all the time? Are you allowed to see your friends? Does he go through your phone?

Does he show up unexpectedly when you’re out someplace? Does he threaten to kill himself if you say you’re leaving?

Has he hit you? He will. Do you have kids?

You know that if you stay they’re going to

think this is normal, right? Yeah, it sounds shitty and interrogatory, but for me those were the small questions that helped me get to the big answer, rather than the Big Question we always get asked: “Why don’t you just leave him?” There’s an answer to that one, too, but it doesn’t take you anywhere.

I am so lucky. I got out with shoes on my feet and money in the bank. It took a decade of hard work but I learned to tell good love from bad. The women I’ve picked up are rarely that lucky. Their lives and finances are bound up in their partners’ and when I drop them off at a sister’s or a friend’s house, they often only have what they’re wearing. For many, including the woman I picked up several months ago, there are kids involved.

She was sitting on an old-fashioned suitcase, wearing clothes just a little too summery for the late fall weather. Before I could even stop my truck to let her in she was talking. Could I turn around, she asked, and give her a ride back to her broken down car? She’d called for a tow and could ride with the driver back to town, but her husband had run her off from their driveway. I ask if she’s sure she wants to go back and she says yes, so I find a wide place on the side of the road and turn back, headed up the hill. Honeydew is a long way from anywhere and I wondered how long she Continued on next page »

had been waiting. She left her kid with her abuser, she says. She’s going to go to court to fight for him, but she’s done it before and lost. Her husband has all the money. I don’t have time to ask her the questions in between her story. I’m sad to say my bullshit meter pinged.

That’s why I was dreading this latest trip out to the ’Dew. My hometown has changed. I didn’t know that woman or her husband. I used to recognize every truck on the road, every person on the store porch. It hasn’t been that way for a while. That’s only half the coin, though. I dread finding out how much I’ve changed because of what I now know. I’ve always been the trusting kind. I’ve never carried a gun. When I meet a stranger, I always assume their intentions are good. But in the last five years my trust has been eroded by anecdotes like the elderly couple hogtied and burglarized by men who mistakenly thought they had a grow. I read about car jackings and robberies and stray bullets. I read press releases about people shot and dumped on the road. I listen to a friend tell me that he no longer lets his daughter stay alone at his (legal) scene because home invasions have become so rampant he worries for her safety. And because of this, I drop the woman off across the road from her car. She promises me she will be fine and that she will call the crisis hotline I recommended for help. I don’t wait and make sure she’s OK. I am thinking about her husband or someone else who might be lying in wait.

This suspicion, I consider it a moral injury. I don’t know if the injury falls to the ills of cannabis culture or if it’s just a natural hardening as I slouch toward middle age.

But I resent it. I resent that it has blurred the part of me that was once helpful and empathetic, and that it’s made me uncertain if my bullshit/danger meter is pinging for a good reason or just from the cumulative effect of so much bad news. I dread the day I see another woman on the side of the road and choose to keep driving.

On this night, my ethics go untested.

My little car judders on the bad roads, I get to my meeting bloated with junk food, I exchange hugs and gossip. It’s dark when I get on the road again, close to 11 by the time I get back to town. I text my boyfriend from my driveway: “Home safe.”

“Good, I love you,” he texts back. He says he can’t sleep on the nights I drive out there. He always wants to know where I am. When it’s good love, that feels OK. ● Linda Stansberry is a staff writer at the Journal. Reach her at 442-1400, extension 317, or linda@northcoastjournal.com.

Supes Pass Cannabis Ordinance 2.0

A

fter hours of discussion, the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors voted Tuesday to pass its new commercial cannabis land use ordinance.

The ordinance got four “yes” votes but Third District Supervisor Mike Wilson didn’t support it, though it’s unclear if he voted against it or abstained. (Wilson clearly said he abstained from the vote, but Board Chair Ryan Sundberg announced the vote as “4-1” and Wilson did not correct him.) In any event, the new ordinance is aimed at bringing county regulations inline with statewide rules, mitigating some unintended consequences of the county’s old ordinance and, potentially, giving local farmers an opportunity to capitalize on canna-tourism.

But the vast majority of today’s conversation centered on how the county will treat commercial cannabis cultivators whose operations fall within 1,000 feet of the spheres of influence of local cities, tribes and planning areas. After the permitting of some cannabis farms on the outskirts of Fortuna — which has taken a strident anti-cannabis stance within its city limits — drew a public and intergovernmental backlash under the old ordinance, planning staff sought to give

Cultivating Community

neighboring jurisdictions more control in the new ordinance.

To that end, new farms looking to set up shop within 1,000 feet of such boundaries under the new ordinance will have to get conditional use permits. But the question the supervisors grappled with for much of Tuesday was what to do with the 34 cultivation cites that were permitted through a ministerial process with little public input and 143 others that are in the application process, having begun it under the county’s prior — and less stringent — ordinance.

The supervisors seemed torn between the pull to be respectful of impacts to other jurisdictions, while also recognizing that farmers applied for permits under certain rules and may undergo huge expense and delay if those rules were changed.

The board ultimately decided all new applications received under the new ordinance for grows in such areas will have to go through the conditional use permit process. For existing applications or permitted grows, applicants will have three months to make a showing to the planning department that there is no “public controversy” surrounding their cultivation operation, meaning that no neighbors ob-

When police arrived to the scene of the crash on Broadway in Eureka, they found 33-year-old Dustin Finson dead. In his pocket, they found the wallet of 39-year-old Charles Roybal III. Thinking Roybal was the deceased, the coroner’s office notified his family of his death. Hours later, the CHP issued a press release explaining the mistake.

O

verwhelmed by a failed marriage and a traumatic broken engagement, Margot Genger found temporary relief in alcohol and casual relationships.

When she careened into a manic episode that led to a complete and very public psychotic breakdown, she recognized she needed to change her life trajectory.

She came up with a rather unusual plan while sitting in Denny’s and staring out at the traffic on U.S. Highway 101: She would learn to drive an 18-wheeler, get a job as a long haul trucker and write a best seller about it.

This plan had the added benefit of getting her out of town and away from the censure she felt from friends and family.

Genger’s memoir Shift Happens chronicles the following months as Genger graduated from the College of the Redwoods truck driving course, got her commercial license and embarked on her career driving for Sam Tanksley Trucking.

The night before she was to report for her new job, one final lapse in judgement resulted in a DUI. To prevent this going on her driving record and short circuiting her plan before it even began, Genger agreed to attend AA meetings.

Long haul trucking requires timely deliveries but a driver is only allowed so many continuous hours, so partners are assigned by the company. This was the 1970s and there were very few women in this job.

Genger did partner with one woman but the other 10 were a motley assortment of men. Pretty much all of these situations

Margot Genger’s long haul memoir. were a nightmare of one kind or another, but she was determined to master the technical job skills required and to confront her own personal demons that led to the rapid turnover in drivers willing to share a cab with her.

During layovers and on her infrequent visits home, she found herself looking for the nearest AA meeting instead of heading to a bar. Although she didn’t consider herself an alcoholic, she found the meetings helped her recognize self-destructive behaviors and eventually open herself up to the genuine kindness and support of her family, friends and the occasional stranger.

While this book confirms my suspicion that I would never want to be behind the wheel of a semi truck, it was a pleasure to ride along on these journeys; one crisscrossing the U.S. and the other inside the heart and mind of this remarkable woman. ● JoAnn Bauer was the children’s librarian at the Humboldt County Library for many years.

A New Generation and a Legacy

The Art Graduates’ Exhibition at HSU’s Reese Bullen Gallery

By Gabrielle Gopinath artbeat@northcoastjournal.com

T

his month the Humboldt State University graduating class takes over the Reese Bullen gallery space on campus for the annual grad exhibition, curated by the HSU Museum and Gallery Practices class under the direction of lecturer Ian Carey, gallery director Britt Sheldon and gallery assistant Brittany Britton. Artworks of every stripe and medium pack into the space.

The room crackles with creative energy.

It’s a fun exhibition, visually on the verge of overwhelming in this intimate space; there is a lot to look at and a lot of it is very good. Standouts include the blazing woodcut “Alpine Glow” by Xochiyolotl Harbison and a digitally interpellated portrait in chartreuse by Dominique Birdsong, as well as Nathan Liam’s engagingly trippy painting “Pink Jungle” and Luciano Duran’s beautiful photograph “Microcosm,” with its dimly luminous forms that appear to be twirling slowly in the dusk.

Alexandra Gonzàlez’s painting “Let’s Get Decadent” offers a candy-colored contemporary take on decline and fall.

Roman muralists and Victorian moralists used to paint banquets and the occasional orgy this way, using landscape format to

take full advantage of the possibilities represented by the couch-oriented Roman banquet hall. To her credit, Gonzàlez makes the players in this ancient set piece look excruciatingly contemporary. Isn’t that the clean-cut heartthrob who used to have his own YouTube channel?

Sebastian Wiggins’s steel sculpture “Catalyst” extends like a wiry asterisk in three dimensions. “Jörmungandr” by Meyer Grave, is a line in steel that goes squiggling through space like an angry snake — as befits the vast Norse serpent that, according to Viking myth, is supposed to lap all of Midgard in its coils.

Video makes a welcome addition to the usual materials roster. A small monitor plays clever shorts in digital, hand-drawn and stop-motion animation by Sergio M. Coelho, Jesse Nelson, Taylor Lee Macias and Ann Valdés.

A dark, striated stoneware vessel by Myung Ahn possesses a gravitas that justifies the title “Primordial Birth.” Ahn, who also has another vessel on display, is the winner of this year’s Reese Bullen Award.

In front of the artwork that won the prize that, like the gallery itself, bears Reese Bullen’s name, it was impossible not to

Free Spirits The House That Will Not Stand and Chicago

By Gabrielle Gopinath and David Jervis frontrow@northcoastjournal.com

The House That Will Not Stand

The 2014 play The House that Will Not Stand, written by poet/playwright and Oakland native Marcus Gardley and now playing at Redwood Curtain Theatre under the direction of Michelle “Chelly” Purnell and Clint Rebik, is a spirited historical comedy with music and a voodoo spell, set in antebellum New Orleans.

The year is 1836 and in the Faubourg Tremé, the wealthy Lazare Albans has just died; that’s his corpse we see when the curtain rises, laid out beneath a sheet in the parlor of his tasteful home.

Since Albans had two families, an official white one and an unofficial one of color, his sudden death makes trouble. Albans’ widow Beartrice (Ramona j.j. Bell) is a freewoman of color who wants to take advantage of her now doubly emancipated state and return to Paris, but recent laws mean the proceeds from her estate may go to Albans’ official widow (Raechel Robinson) instead. Makeda (Chryste L. Johnson), the trusted house slave/confidante grown old in the service of the Albans, now wants to buy her freedom — a request Beartrice repeatedly declines. Crazy aunt Marie Josephine (Tina Okoye) is confined to the house and sees ghosts.

The family’s three daughters are Odette (Michelle “Chelly” Purnell), Agnès (Ayanna Elon Wilson) and Maude Lynn (Taiquira Williams). (I’ll let you guess which sis gets

Taiquira Williams as the aptly named Maude Lynn in The House That Will Not Stand.

in touch with the paranormal.) The eldest, Agnès, wants to go to the quadroon ball, where well-to-do young women of mixed race make their debuts — she hopes to contract a relationship through the Creole custom of plaçage, in which young black, Native American and Creole women are “placed” into common-law marriages with the white men who purchase them. Her mother wants her to stay home and her sisters must decide whether to help or hinder Agnes’ plan. Lazare Albans (Brad Harrington) makes a surprise reappearance at one point in the chaos that ensues, conjured by Makeda’s voodoo spell.

Robert Pickering’s set design breathes a suggestion of wrought-iron balconies, brocaded wallpapers and ancestral portraits into the Albanses’ parlor; Cory Stewart’s sound design conjures heat, night-flying insects and the thrum of palmetto fans through humid air. Catherine L. Brown’s costumes deploy a pastiche of fripperies for a sense of bygone times.

Bell commands the stage with formidable grace as Beartrice; Okoye is luminous in song in the role of the otherworldly Marie

Josephine, a truth-telling, housebound nymph savant. Harrington plays Lazare as a mellow patriarch who, even after death goes with the flow, exuding a passive-aggressive befuddlement at the swirling intrigues. Johnson, playing Makeda, leaves a powerful impression when she breaks into song during her voodoo spell, calling out the names of spirits. Unfortunately, absorbing moments can be undercut by the writing, which at times positions Makeda too close to a stock Mammy character for my liking. Bursting into song about making gumbo for other characters, for instance, seems labored.

The House that Will Not Stand plays at Redwood Curtain Theatre on Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights at 8 p.m. through May 26, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. on May 13 and 20. Call 443-7688 or visit www.redwoodcurtain.org.

Chicago

Bob Fosse was a legend on Broadway through the 1960s and 1970s, first as a choreographer, then doubling up as a director, blazing a trail from Damn Yankees to Sweet Charity and onward. He morphed with the fast-changing times onstage and in the world at large, and in 1975 he had a hit on the Great White Way with Chicago.

That production has proved an enduring work, with its choreography and Jazz Age detail. Now onstage at the Ferndale Repertory Theatre, directed by Patrick Spike, it’s a lively work worthy of the saucy era in which it’s set, the mid-1920s in the Windy City. With touches of salaciousness, celebrity and tabloid treachery, it’s easy to see why it’s been restaged through the ensuing decades.

Young Roxie Hart (Jessica Kaufman), a chorus girl with designs on bigger things, shoots dead a lover who’s done her wrong — no better action to start a story such as this — and then fails in getting her husband Amos (Dillon Savage) to take the fall for

her. Off she goes to the Cook County pen, where things kick into high gear. Through a series of great musical numbers, we meet a chorus of women accused of murdering their two-timing lovers, including the darkly marvelous Velma (Alexandra Blouin).

It’s here the well-played comic parts and those satirizing the tabloid culture of the era click well, especially when scheming attorney Billy Flynn (most snazzily played

by Gary Bowman) appears — his job is to sway juries as well as the court of rubes, er, public opinion. One great thing about Chicago is that no one ever is revealed to have a heart of gold, which fits the mood of the proceedings. In some ways, Chicago might seem like more of a revue but there’s method here: It’s a narrative story unfolding through musical numbers stylistically in step with hyperkinetic Vaudeville, that genre to which so many in the story aspire.

Not everything hits its marks in this Chicago, which is an ambitious show to stage and not all the material ages well. But above all, Blouin is a standout, building on a great resume as an actor/choreographer (Bat Boy, The Rocky Horror Show, Boeing Boeing) and capping it off perfectly as Velma. Song-and-dance-and-all-wise, she’s the straw the stirs the drink in an iconic tale of tawdriness with a soundtrack that just keeps on roaring around us all.

Chicago plays at the Ferndale Repertory Theatre in Ferndale on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. through June 2, with Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. through June 3. For more information, call 786-5483 or visit www.ferndalerep.com.

F

amily traditions are a fine thing, except when they’re inconvenient, outdated, unappreciated, annoying or molded in gelatin. Which is to say one or two family traditions are a fine thing, particularly the edible ones.

I’m at that weird point in my mid-30s where, fully launched into the uncharted waters of adulthood, I pilot a strange craft, an identity constructed of several decades of friends and hobbies, a new relationship and old vices. Deciding which family traditions to take with me is the last thing that keeps me in harbor. I’ve staged a slow coup of hosting Thanksgiving but I’m trying to offload planning the family reunion. In this metaphor, my mother is only too ready to see me off. She has fortified me with a few dozen hand-written recipe cards. The pickles and jams may have to wait until I run aground somewhere that has 20 extra hours in the week (seriously, how did her generation do it?) but cream cheese pie? That I can do.

I was tasked with making this pie, a family recipe from my late grandmother, for the Ferndale Museum’s annual Sweet Memories Dessert Auction, which is being held this Saturday from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Ferndale City Hall. Served at every holiday, this dessert reminds me of my grandmother. It’s sweet and tart and pretty without being fussy. Being asked to make it was a real honor, especially when you

consider that my mother’s cousins will also be reuniting this weekend — Mother’s Day weekend — for the first time since our Aunt Ticki’s funeral. They’ll each bring desserts that represent the six Robinson sisters, girls who grew up in Ferndale during the Great Depression. They, too, had to leave familiar shores to establish their own families and lives, and struggle with the challenges of a much different, more difficult era in American life, when you sewed your own clothes, canned your own food and almost nothing — save tradition — was guaranteed. The cousins’ family recipes, along with those of other Ferndale families, will be compiled in a cookbook for sale that day, with all proceeds from its sale and the dessert auction going to benefit the Ferndale Museum. It’s rare that we all get together for events besides funerals. This is a tradition I’d like to take with me — reuniting for something sweet.

For the filling:

Heat the oven to 350 F. First, make the crust. In a large bowl, mix the crushed graham crackers with ¼ cup sugar. Stir in melted butter and combine well. (My mom’s less-mess tip: crush the crackers with a rolling pin in a large re-sealable plastic bag, then add the sugar,

then the butter. Shake vigorously.) Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and along the sides of a standard 9-inch pie tin.

Next, make the filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and ½ cup sour cream until smooth. Add eggs, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, cornstarch and lemon zest and blend thoroughly. Pour the mixture into crust. Bake until the center is puffed, dry and lightly browned, about 30 minutes for a conventional oven (50 minutes for a woodstove in the original recipe).

Let the pie cool until the surface flattens, about 10 minutes. Keep the oven on.

In a medium bowl, use a spatula to blend the topping ingredients. Spread the mixture evenly over the pie and bake an additional 5 minutes. Remove the pie and let it cool completely. Refrigerate it overnight or for at least 5 hours before serving. Top with fruit or lemon curd if you like, but in our family, we think plain pie tastes fine! l

Setlist

Call Your (or Somebody’s) Mother

By Collin Yeo

music@northcoastjournal.com

I

will make this short and sweet, like these fragrant May nights we are lucky to share. Your life started with a womb — unless you were hatched like my friend Walt the bearded dragon — and if you are lucky enough to still have its owner as a positive part of your life, you owe her a call Sunday. Forget all that crap about Hallmark holidays — if you have a good or at least passably decent and living mother, give her a call. And if she lives nearby, do something nice with her. And if none of the above applies, go find some other mom or motherless person to dote on for an afternoon. Affection is the coin of the realm in a healthy society. Go spend some.

Enjoy your week.

Thursday

Ezra Furman comes to the Miniplex tonight at 9 p.m. ($10). His latest release on the Bella Union label is called Transangelic Exodus and it revolves around a runaway love that dare not speak its name — specifically, the love between a human and an angel. His songs sound like heart-worn road songs on an electro nighttime blacktop between here and eternity. He is very good and worth your time. Along for the ride is breathy, frenetic folkster Shannon Lay. Arcata’s delightful Venus Milk opens.

Friday The YAMS booking collective is putting on an end to the semester party at The Jam tonight at 9 p.m. ($10). With local funk and soul powerhouses The Velvet Touch and The Apiary presiding, it should be a good dance-o-matic time for students and everyday people alike.

Saturday The Creamery District Night Market is on tonight, with puppets, art and fire dancing. Shop for sartorial splendor at Bang! Bang! Vintage, check out art by MK Studios, Birdman Ceramics and Seapod Studios, quaff some cider from Wrangle-

town Cider Co., enjoy a bilingual puppet show and enjoy the musical stylings of The Monster Women. What a fine, fulsome feast, and free, no less. It’s at 6 p.m., so you crepuscular sunset worshippers have no excuse to hide your pretty selves away.

Meanwhile in Fortuna, pianist Chuang Li will tempt wonders out of the 88 keys at the Fortuna Monday Club at 7:30 p.m. with an exciting program for solo piano featuring works by Beethoven, Rachmaninoff, Bach and that proto-rockstar Franz Liszt ($10).

Sunday (Mother’s Day) The Westhaven Center for the Arts puts on a free spring fling from 1 to 4 p.m. featuring barbecue, wine, beer and virgin drinks, a silent auction, a raffle and music by The Compost Mountain Boys and songwriter March Adstrum — which sounds like a neat alias procured by a quick glance at a calendar from a wholesale musical instrument company. Bring your favorite diurnal mom.

There’s a special show over at the Siren’s Song when Cleveland no-wave legends X__X (pronounced ex blank ex, for the uninitiated) rolls through Eureka to share its special blend of art punk noise at 8 p.m. (price TBA). Local legends The Tweeners share the support gig with the always thunderous Blackplate.

Monday Music-wise, it’s a quiet night on the far-western front but since I have pumped everything from dance to puppetry to burlesque here, let me suggest another medium that’s all about the timing and the rhythm: I speak of the boozy and lurid world of the professional truthteller, the stand-up comic. Kyle Kinane is very funny and has been here on the North Coast before, so he should pull a fun crowd.

Providing support will be comics Jessica Grant and Dave Stone, and the whole shebang fires off at Humbrews at 9 p.m.

38 NORTH COAST JOURNAL • Thursday, May 10, 2018 • northcoastjournal.com

Chuang Li plays the Fortuna Monday Club at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, May 12.

Courtesy of the artist

($22). I’ve never tried comedy myself but I have often imagined taking some cues from the ancient Catskill comedians from the bygone Borscht Belt and punctuating my obnoxious bon mots with a spinning bowtie or a button that makes my pants fall down. It’s one of those ideas that (barely) looks good on paper and would probably suck in execution, but a man can dream, can’t he?

Tuesday

Los Angeles songsmith Bella Porter plays solo guitar to accompany a voice that is truly big and beautiful, and her clear and plaintive howls sound like birdsong from the fields of paradise. Her songs are pretty great, too. She plays the Outer Space tonight at 7 p.m. ($5). Providing support will be the excellent noir country act Moon Pine and Arcata High School student Ruby Langdon will serenade us with pop covers on her ukulele. Yay, Ruby!

Wednesday

Local folk trio No Pardon plays a free show at the Redwood Curtain Brewing Co. this evening at 7 p.m.

And over in Blue Lake there is another free show as the talented players in Dell’Arte’s M2 Ensemble crack the sawblade bedecked boards of the Logger Bar at 9 p.m. for what is sure to be a fine spring evening of fun. 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 is eternally grateful for all of the women in his life who have helped make him feel nothing at all like a motherless child. He lives in Arcata.

Summer Lovin’

Because Mom Said So.

Graduation weekend is here. That means driving in Arcata is about to get whole lot easier (potholes and roundabouts notwithstanding) but for the next few days, we’ll see an influx of proud families dining, shopping and celebrating.

Arcata Main Street has some good, clean fun planned on and around the plaza.

On Friday, May 11, grads, their families and community members can enjoy Arts! Arcata, the monthly celebration of visual and performing arts in town from 6 to 9 p.m. (free). During Arts! Arcata, Homeboldt on the Plaza is hosting a Silent Disco chaperoned by McKinley right there in the town square.

What’s silent disco? Participants wear wireless headphones linked up to the same music and dance — silently. Like the family from A Quiet Place might do downstairs in their rumpus room. Forget Me Not Photo Booth will be on hand to capture the memories. Bring a few bucks for the silent auction and raffle benefiting Big Brothers Big Sisters of the North Coast.

Come back Saturday, May 12 for the fresh produce and fun at Arcata Plaza Farmers Market from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. followed by the not silent Kick Off to Summer party from 3 to 9 p.m. featuring live music by Doug Fir and the 2X4s and others (free). Here comes the sun.

In case your mom hasn’t reminded you recently, she brought you into this world, fed you and changed you. And, if you screw up her special day, there will be consequences. Fear not, we’re here to help.

Does your mother love tea, gardens and sweet petite pastries? Treat her to the Mother’s Day Tea and Tour at the Julia Morgan Redwood Grove on Saturday, May 12 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. ($32). Tours are offered at 10 a.m., 11 a.m., Noon, 1 p.m. and 2 p.m. and reservations are required.

Maybe your mom would like something stronger than tea. Fill her sippy cup at Fieldbrook Winery’s Spring Open House and Wine Tasting, May 12-13 from noon to 5 p.m. ($15-$23 depending on flight, $5 nondrinkers and children over 5, free for kids 4 and under). Think back to your teen years and splurge on the big flight.

Maybe she’s got a sweet tooth. Saturday, May 12 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., the Sweet Memories Dessert Auction and Mother’s Day Exhibit at Ferndale City Hall features lunch, family photos and memorabilia, plus secret Ferndale family recipes included in a cookbook on sale ($5 admission). You can even bid on Linda Stansberry’s cream cheese pie featured on page 32.

Today might not be the day you realize your mom was right about everything but some of her common sense got through. Plan accordingly.

Bad Samaritan

Bad Samaritan is … Bad Tully is grown-up good

By John J. Bennett

filmland@northcoastjournal.com

Reviews

BAD SAMARITAN. There can be fun in a bad movie. The histrionics of ill-prepared actors, the guilty satisfaction of DIYgrade effects, the cheap thrill of catching a boom microphone dipping into frame.

It can shrink the distance between the makers and the audience. Earnest effort can be endearing, charming for its lack of charm — it may not be great but damn it, they tried.

Or a bad movie can create a vacuum, drawing in any hope or goodwill a viewer brought to the theater. Bad Samaritan is definitively of this latter type. Founded on plot devices spanning from unlikely to implausible to impossible to stupid, it squanders a clever(ish) premise on 110 minutes of pseudo-thriller claptrap containing zero thrills. To call it silly does a disservice to silliness, implying there’s fun to be had.

There is none.

Sean (Robert Sheehan), a would-be fine art photographer in Portland, Oregon, works as a valet with his buddy Derek (Carlito Olivero). They run a scam wherein they use the diners’ cars to burglarize their houses while they enjoy dinner. One night a particularly prickish customer (David Tennant), arrives in a Maserati. Sean smells blood in the water, goes to the guy’s house, steals a new credit card and finds a woman bound and gagged in a darkened office draped in black plastic — sinister!

Sean attempts to free her but his efforts

are stifled by remotely controlled security cameras. He flees and calls the cops, but our antagonist is too smart. So begins an insufferable cat-and-mouse game, contingent on our belief that Tennant’s Cale Erendreich is not only a trust-fund psychopath, but also an insatiable and ingenious serial killer driven by some adolescent incident involving a horse.

For a story relying on the killer’s psychology and methodology, Bad Samaritan demonstrates little interest in verisimilitude. Erendreich is a slavering lunatic one moment, the picture of composure the next, and a master of social media who also doesn’t understand how a screenshot works. It’s bogus, which would be fine if it was entertaining, but it’s not.

There are moments where maybe Tennant is letting us in on a private joke, channeling Patrick Bateman unbeknownst to everyone else on set, but that’s a long walk to find even dubious merit in this mess. It’s a charmless bad movie, the type that can make one irritated and sad, shaking a fist at the screen in frustration and frustrated sympathy for those involved. R.

cence gets tiresome and the seams in its threadbare, funky whimsy become all-too apparent in places. Still, it subverts movie genre and explores sexuality and (pending) adulthood from a distinct perspective.

Cody and Reitman came together again to make Young Adult (2011), enlisting the formidable aid of Charlize Theron to delve further into notions of growing up or avoiding it. The three of them have re-teamed for Tully and a continuum of storytelling maturity is crystallizing.

Marlo (Theron) is, as the movie opens, severely pregnant with her third child. Her middle son Jonah (Asher Miles Fallica) has some behavioral difficulties. Her husband, Drew (Ron Livingston), travels a lot for work and spends maybe too much of his time at home wearing a headset and playing video games. She is exhausted, stuck, lost to herself. When her rich brother Craig (Mark Duplass) offers to hire her a night nanny, she initially balks. Eventually, though, she takes him up on it and Tully (Mackenzie Davis), a sage, Bohemian 20-something, changes her life.

There’s a lot more to it than that but I won’t spoil the surprise. Both Cody and Reitman have toned it down, becoming more economical, less precious. The visceral emotional authenticity that made Juno work is still part of their collaboration but here they explore it more patiently, trusting the material and the actors to find and illuminate details.

NOTICE TO POTENTIAL BIDDERS: If you are considering bidding on this property lien, you should under− stand that there are risks involved in bidding at a trustee auction. You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the 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.

NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, benefi− ciary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a cour− tesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call (844) 477− 7869 or visit this Internet Web site WWW.STOXPOSTING.COM, using the file number assigned to this case 065415−CA. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale.

The Big Skate

By Mike Kelly

S

o, you know about the theory of evolution by natural selection, right? A tiny random mutation in an organism’s DNA results in better fitness and gets passed on to future generations, etc. And, after hundreds of millions of years, this process is responsible for the diversity of life on Earth.

But who has time for that?

It’s much more satisfying to hold a creation myth. Plus, you are free to develop your own creation myth. Totally legitimate ones have been created thousands and thousands of times. Try it out!

For example, in my personal creation myth there’s a space alien named Claud, who looks suspiciously just like me. And in the beginning, like any good operating engineer, Claud was up at first light. He jumped on his cosmic earthmoving equipment and worked a six-day week with lots of overtime. He excavated the oceans and pushed up the continents. And then he stocked Earth with a boatload of animals.

Like many heavy equipment operators, Claud rested on Sunday by going fishing.

This was about 6,000 years ago and no one had yet invented modern angling gear.

So, Claud used his cosmic steamroller to humanely squash fish.

As you can imagine, it’s not easy running down a fish with a steamroller so Claud made his Sunday last a really long time.

Eventually, he ran down enough bony fish to create the halibuts and flounders and he flattened enough sharks to create the skates and rays. This seminal steamrolling effort is also why the Earth is flat and all the regular planets are spherical.

Claud’s handiwork occasionally washes up on local beaches. In my experience, the

most commonly washed-up “flat shark” is the big skate (Beringraja binoculata).

Sometimes a whole specimen washes up but the most common sign of them is their egg capsule. This type of egg case is laid by skates and certain sharks and is called a “merperson’s purse.” (They’re actually called “mermaid’s purses” but whatever.) The big skate produces the world’s largest merperson’s purse, and it is also the world’s second largest skate. The common skate (Dipturus batis) is the biggest skate but is far less common than the big skate.

Claud likes messing with us.

Anyway, the merperson’s purse of the big skate often washes up empty and will dry out into a relatively non-smelly, rectangular-ish souvenir. They are brown and kind of leathery with an arched top. They are usually about the size of a discarded flip-flop. Sometimes they wash up with embryos still inside, so don’t try to turn a heavy one into a souvenir. Somehow Claud has been able to fit up to seven baby skates into a single merperson’s purse!

Another sign of the big skate that washes up occasionally is its skull. Look for them after a low tide with big surf. Claud made skates cartilaginous, so it’s not bony like a regular skull. Their skulls are a flat, rectangular, semi-ridged, jelly-like white object with a pointy end. Big skates can exceed 6 feet long, so the skull is as big as you would expect.

The jaws of a big skate also make a nice souvenir if you possess the required license and skills. Their teeth form a small nightmarish carpet for the varied animals it sucks from the ocean’s bottom. Speaking of eating, some people eat big skates and there is a small commercial fishery for them. But most people would rather have halibut and halibut fishers hate it when they accidentally hook a big skate. The skate hates it, too. And Claud doesn’t care. l Fish biologist Mike Kelly writes science-based satire as M. Sid Kelly on Amazon.
