Single payer for all After dozens of failed attempts during the Obama administration and a

GUEST COMMENT

What, me worry? you bet your life Iencounters lately, every journey replete with hair-raising with other drivers—people who change ’ve been making a lot of trips to Sacramento

lanes at high speed, who drive too fast and pass on the right, or who can be seen texting while negotiating heavy traffic. Last week, a guy in the left lane seemed to be looking for something he’d dropped into his lap just before a woman’s head popped up into view.

Which brings me to the subject of Donald J. Trump.

There is much that worries me about Our Glorious Leader: the by likelihood of war, environmental Jaime O’Neill safeguards under assault, The author, a Magalia millions of Americans faced resident, is a retired with losing affordable insurance community college coverage, public education under instructor. siege, women’s rights imperiled.

Etcetera, etcetera.

But what worries me even more up close and personally is that nearly 62 million of my fellow Americans watched this guy over a 16-month period, saying or doing

something stupid, outrageous, or “unpresidented” on a daily basis. They had all those months to assess the dangers of having such a limited human being as the nation’s head honcho, a candidate who could not point to a single minute of experience in public office. Still, they voted for him, despite lies, contradictory statements, proud boasting about his sexual creepiness, his enthusiastic support from white supremacists, the incessant hate- and fear-mongering, his arrogant refusal to release his tax returns, the failures he’d overseen in his business ventures, not to mention his philandering and infidelities that, in saner times, might have alienated so-called family-values Christians.

Sixty-two million Americans presumed to be capable of operating motor vehicles took well over a year before deciding Donald J. Trump was the responsible choice to lead us. We share our potholed roads and freeways with those drivers who make split-second decisions—jamming on their brakes, running red lights—or down six or eight brewskis before they roll.

Good judgment wouldn’t seem to be their strong suit: not at the polls, not in the drivers’ seats of their speeding vehicles. That worries me. It should probably worry you, too. □

high-profile failure during President Trump’s first 100 days, Congressional Republicans embarked on yet another quest to dismantle the Affordable Care Act. The latest effort consists of the American Health Care Act, which passed the House with one vote to spare. Senators are rewriting the legislation—no surprise, considering Americans across the political spectrum have voiced outrage over various provisions.

While it’s commendable that the Senate won’t consider a flawed bill without review, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell didn’t sanction a comprehensive revision. His working group—13 men, no women—will tinker at most, as he only has a two-vote margin and the same conservatives to placate.

To paraphrase a classic Saturday Night Live line by Coffee Talk host Linda Richman, the American Health Care Act is neither American nor Health Care. The most odious clauses strike our most vulnerable neighbors: lower-income adults and children, particularly those with chronic illnesses (i.e., “pre-existing conditions”). (See “Abhorrent,” Second & Flume, page 7.) Bill provisions also strip away services insurance must cover (i.e., “essential benefits”) to the point that policies may become hollow shells.

There’s a better solution—up and running in industrialized countries.

Single payer.

Also known as Medicare for All, single payer insurance eliminates the byzantine system perpetuated by the American Health Care Act—and, yes, Obamacare. Republicans lament the staggering cost of delivering medical treatment; cutting out the administrative and profit margins or private insurance companies seems a straightforward way to save huge amounts without touching care. (A 2013 study of HR 676, a single payer bill that failed in Congress, estimated such savings at $476 billion annually.)

When firefighters or police respond to a 911 call, we don’t get a bill for their service. We’ve paid into a pot that covers our lives getting saved, our safety protected, according to our means. Health care should not differ from public safety or national security.

Life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness cannot occur without equal protection under the law. We encourage Republicans—including our congressman, Doug LaMalfa—to consider the Constitution and human needs for health care. □

Stick with Paris Last year, when the leaders of the world’s two largest carbon polluters,

China and the United States (in that order), formally ratified the historic Paris climate accord, it signaled substantive movement on a pledge among the international community to reduce greenhouse gases.

The agreement had been decades in the making, but with the election of Donald Trump, the efforts to slow the warming of our world are now at stake. Most signs (his plan to dismantle the Obama-era Clean Power Plan, among others) point to the president pulling the plug on America’s commitment to the nonbinding treaty.

That move could trigger many consequences, including diplomatic fallout from our European allies, China and other nations. Of course, one of the biggest potential repercussions is the derailment of the accord.

As you’ll read in this week’s cover story (“Submerged,” page 18), a new report indicates that sea-level rise due to global warming is greatly outpacing scientists’ previous predictions. An estimated 2 million homes in the United States will be underwater, quite literally, by the end of the century.

In California, that includes portions of the famed coastline.

Point is, the international effort to curb global warming is critical to sustaining life on our planet. It’s time to put country over party and stick with Paris. □

‘Sad commentary’ Re “Classroom controversy” (Newsline, by Gabriel Sandoval, May 4): I was both surprised and not when reading this article. The lack of empathy that professor Rose displayed is sad commentary that there is much work to be done in the area of learning and enacting empathy in our society.

It seems he just didn’t get it. I want to say on behalf of those who do get it that I am sorry to the student who had to endure the trauma that she did.

Re “Shadow’s war” (Cover story, by John Lasker, May 4): Another example of the many women in the military who’ve been victimized twice—first during the sexual assault, then by the male military leaders who ignore or ridicule them. In this case, Shadow McClaine was murdered near where she was stationed at Fort Campbell, Ky., after months of reporting she felt threatened.

I was in the 101st Airborne at Fort Campbell before we flew off to Vietnam. Back then, there were 15,000 men in the paratroopers’ division and no women. I follow news on military service and veterans, and probably 90 percent of the time when female troops report a sexual assault, the military’s male leaders will side with the system of ignoring the assaults.

Over the decades, as young people have asked me about joining the military, I have not discouraged them. But now, if a woman asks me about joining, I will discourage her. I don’t see the good old boys changing their attitudes.

And with a commander in chief who brags that he can grab the groin area of women and they won’t complain, it certainly sends the message to the military “boys” that female victims of sexual assault should be told to shut up.

A few days after the House of Representatives narrowly passed a bill to repeal and replace the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare), I read with interest an op-ed in The Washington Post by Cathy McMorris Rodgers, a congresswoman from Washington state who, along with 216 other Republicans, cast an aye vote.

I’d become familiar with McMorris Rodgers over the past decade only because my mother used to live in her conservative district, which includes Spokane, and I’d see her occasionally on television and in newspapers standing behind former Speaker of the House John Boehner. These days, she’s the yes-woman to Speaker Paul Ryan.

I can say with near certainty that McMorris Rodgers and I have very little in common ideologically or otherwise. As far as I can tell, one of the few similarities between us is the fact that we both have a child with Down syndrome.

This week, McMorris Rodgers used her son Cole’s disability—an extra copy of the 21st chromosome, or trisomy 21 in medical jargon—as an example of how her vote on the GOP’s American Health Care Act will protect the vulnerable, including kids like Cole and, as she mentioned in her piece, Billy Kimmel, comedian Jimmy Kimmel’s newborn son who underwent emergency open-heart surgery just days after entering the world.

Thing is, the Republicans’ health care bill actually will do the opposite. It creates a system in which those with pre-existing conditions—including congenital birth defects, such as heart conditions—can be charged insurance premiums based on their current or previous “health status.”

One of the key provisions of the existing health care law is its cap on the costs people with pre-existing conditions pay. Since the pending AHCA has no such ceiling, insurance companies will be able to charge significantly higher rates.

That’s not a big deal for people like McMorris Rodgers, who makes $174,000 annually, not including benefits, and has a net worth of more than $1 million. But for the average American household, the majority of which have less than $1,000 in savings and make around $73,000 yearly, according to the U.S. Census, those costs will be burdensome at best and financially crippling at worst.

Indeed, Republicans like to talk about how Americans with preexisting conditions will have “access” to health care under their bill.

What they don’t say is that such access is guaranteed only to those who can afford it.

Like McMorris Rodgers, Jimmy Kimmel has the wealth to pay for higher premiums. Unlike the congresswoman, however, he has the emotional intelligence and enough concern for others to acknowledge that the AHCA won’t work for all Americans. As Kimmel put it last week, “No parent should ever have to decide if they can afford to save their child’s life. It just shouldn’t happen. Not here.”

As a parent who frets about her medically fragile child’s welfare on a regular basis, I’d say Kimmel nailed it. That McMorris Rodgers would use her son’s disability to spin her vote as some sort of altruistic measure is next-level abhorrent.

I’ve witnessed babies crying in response to hearing another baby crying—that pure form of empathy has really touched my heart.

Many have accused our current president of possessing a lack of empathy. I envision a world where leaders will be encouraged to exercise empathy and kindness along with the other traits of strong leadership.

Diane Suzuki Chico

Gee, I thought playing the race card was passé. I ran a movie theater in Oakland, so I can understand the young Oakland woman’s culture clash—being away from home in a white-bread culture can be overwhelming. Incidentally, I did some post-grad work at Chico State in the Education Department and was threatened and harassed by the feminazis. And I’m a UC Berkeley Regents scholar and a white male. Bigotry takes all forms.

Mike Peters Chico

Touché, times two Re “Not bike-friendly” (Letters, by Charles Holzhauer, May 4): Mr. Holzhauer laments the sordid and unspeakably un-urban conditions afforded to bicycle riders here in Chico, and I must shamefully concur: Our inability to create the biking Eden he experienced in Berkeley is hard proof of our narrow, selfish vision and Country Bumpkin Hickdom.

My amends to you, Mr. Holzhauer, are thus: At your earliest convenience, I shall hitch my plow mule to the buckboard and transport yourself and all your carpetbags to the county line. Of course, you’ll miss out on the Prize Hog Parade down Main Street that caps the Butte County Opossum Festival scheduled for next week.

Maybe some other time, perhaps?

Oh, and should you have a load larger than I can accommodate?

Why, just ask some of your neighbors who have come to know you so well for their assistance, because we want you to leave happy. Have a nice trek.

Since personal safety can never be outsourced and sharing the roads is usually undeniably dangerous, Charles may find his lost love rekindled by way of a sidewalk adventure of rediscovery.

So long as it is legal (99 percent of the time is my guess) and strict deference with cheerful acquiescence when yielding to each passing biped, any walkway can become a shared bikeway of meet-and-greet bliss. Soon an ever-growing avalanche of peoplepowered mobility will synergistically sweep away any madness of motorheadedness upon adapting one’s modality of mobility. Shift your mind to see that a motor behind a wheel is just a pathetic prosthetic.

Just as a wise man once said, “If God gave my grandmother four wheels, she’d be a wagon.”

Mike Preimesberger Chico

Meany-pants responds Re “Revealing” (Letters, by Loretta Ann Torres, May 4): Being deemed “mean-spirited” by a Republican—in this case, letter writer Loretta Ann Torres—is as ironic as it is vague. But, okie dokie, if it’ll help, I’ll be Mr. Meany-pants.

Torres also says I’m “angry.”

Guilty as charged! There are mountains of stuff to be angry about and I ain’t no Buddhist!

Though, I do like this quote from the Buddha: “If you are angry, because your latte isn’t hot enough, you are an ass.” I also like this not-so-Buddhist quote from me: “If you are NOT angry about the state of our consumeristic, predatory, self-serving and life-annihilating American culture, you are a dumb-ass.”

Next, Torres calls me “critical.” True, but he who is mean and angry will likely growl and grumble. The task is to bitch with conviction. Anyone can whine, but a fine whine takes years to perfect.

Patrick Newman Chico

Hosed by the House The GOP-controlled House of Representatives passed a tax cut— that will go to the top 2 percent of Americans—that its members are calling health care. Health care in the U.S. is 17 percent of

the economy. Republican House members passed their version of health care without a score from the Congressional Budget Office.

They voted for a bill that not many of them read. A bill that will have dire consequences for 24 million Americans. A bill that will reduce Medicaid by 23 percent. A bill that is a moral and intellectual dumpster fire. They had seven years to craft something, yet they had no hearings, no expert testimony, no public input, nothing but ramming it through.

Donald Trump even said to the Australian prime minister after passage of this bill that Australians “have better health care then we do.” Also, Donald is going against so many of the people that supported him in November.

The poor and the elderly will be hammered by this bill if it gets through the Senate. Thousands will die or go bankrupt. Hopefully the Senate will realize that Americans pay twice as much in health care as countries like Australia, Canada and Sweden and give our citizens universal health care.

Jack Krause Chico

Let’s see. Ryanrepubucare.

Health care. Exact opposites.

Sexual assault care per this rich people’s Congress is now a “preexisting condition” and insurance companies don’t have to cover it.

Pregnancy care is now “optional” care—for an additional premium, of course. If you’re old, you’ll pay five times as much. If you’re working-class, you’re out of luck.

But somebody’s good news is the $500 billion in tax giveaways to the pharmaceutical and insurance industries and their CEOs. Mr. LaMalfa voted “hell yes” to all this.

Some letter writers want me to be more civil and not to protest (or otherwise get out). I say to them, sit through just 10 bankruptcy proceedings and 20 funerals, which will be among the outcomes of

this. Thaw out your hearts. Better yet, let’s all stop this antihuman bill.

As for our “representative,” bad, bad Dougie, go home to your room. Stand in the corner. No rice pudding for dinner.

Tony is loved Re “Never welcomed” (Letters, by Tony Nicosia, May 4): We feel saddened that our brother Tony feels unwelcomed by Bidwell Presbyterian Church, and that he doesn’t remember the visits in the hospital and the meals we took to him when he was released.

We are continuously thankful for his presence in our church. Our staff and members who have the privilege of knowing and serving him had dinner with him as recently as the week before last.

We hope that he knows we have a place for him here and that we wish to care for him. Tony is one of us, and not the least of us!

We love Tony, and we are richer because he’s a part of our church.

More Bernie talk Re “Burning the Berners” (Letters,

by Ray Estes, May 4): Ray Estes is wrong in stating that Bernie Sanders only “sheepishly” campaigned for Hillary Clinton after he lost the Democratic nomination. Bernie endorsed and campaigned for Hillary and actually did so to the dismay of some Bernie supporters, and he did the right thing. This was very well-known, and I don’t care what

article Estes referenced. Sanders ran in the Democratic primaries and, unlike Ralph Nader, did not run as a third-party candidate.

The fact is that Hillary Clinton lost people who voted Democratic going as far back as 1988. She lost states that went for her husband and for Barack Obama both times.

Some of those people voted for Trump. Some voted third party, and some simply did not vote. In order to get elected, Democrats must give people a reason to turn out and vote for them. You don’t get people to vote the way you want them to by slamming them.

That’s pretty dumb politics, if you ask me!

Walter Ballin Chico

To those who blame Bernie for Hillary’s loss, perhaps you were too busy arguing with Internet trolls to notice that Bernie ran one of the most positive, uplifting campaigns in modern political history—quite unlike Hillary’s 2008 primary campaign, which didn’t miss an opportunity to deride, dismiss and undercut Obama.

Bernie’s campaign evoked passionate feelings in his supporters because it was more than a campaign—it was, in fact, a political movement to take back the Democratic Party and our country from the Wall Street-friendly political establishment, of which the Clintons were a name brand.

The fact that the deck was stacked against us courtesy of Hillary’s friends in the DNC came as no surprise. Yet despite the DNC’s duplicity, the vast majority of us, led by Bernie himself, understood the need to vote for Hillary in the general election. And most of us did.

Did some Bernie backers stay home or vote third party? Sadly, yes—and they deserve our criticism. But their angry cynicism and frustration with politics as usual did not begin with Bernie Sanders, and to blame him for it is like blaming the doctor for the disease.

I am from Thailand. I love everything my mom cooked.

If I go back to my childhood—young jackfruit, a tropical fruit. She would chop it into medium chunks, deep fry it, then she would boil it in coconut water. That’s my favorite!

Thank You Chico!

Consent is key Chico State students vow to ‘take back the trail’ and fight rape culture on campus

another piece of property in the middle of the project area, at 226 W. Fifth Ave. The two street trees cut down last week were located in front of that property.

Upon further scrutiny, residents learned

that several additional street trees, lining Arcadian Avenue, were slated for removal. CANA board member Donna Wallace led the CN&R on a walk around the project area earlier this week, pointing out about a dozen street trees marked with white X’s. She also indicated dozens more trees within the future park site that have been—or will be—cut down.

Chico Municipal Code calls for fines of up to $5,000 for cutting down street trees without a permit, and mitigation measures must be met when trees on private or public property are removed for development.

“It seems as though Enloe got ahead of themselves and believed these removals were approved based on the development agreement, but that’s not the case,” said Brendan Vieg, the city’s principal planner. “There needs to be some more communication and some paperwork done first. There’s a lot of moving parts involved.”

He elaborated on remaining requirements for the project, saying no use permits have been approved for the parking lot or park structures. Furthermore, parcel lines need to be modified before the project can continue.

Vieg also said the city conducts a full inventory of trees that will be displaced by development before they are removed—including those on the developer’s property—and Enloe has already cut down dozens. He said fines are one option the city has for the two street trees removed last week, but that city staff will meet with hospital representatives this week to discuss remedies and get the project moving forward legitimately.

“There were misunderstandings with the city, and in the confusion we thought that we had all the proper approvals,” Seguine said.

For Withuhn’s part, he’s glad he stopped and inquired, noting that all of the marked trees may have been cut down had he and other citizens not been paying attention. He also gave props to the city for taking swift action.

“In all my years of being involved politically, this is the first time I’ve seen the city step up to protect its trees.” □

Chico State campus, there’s a path runs from Warner Street west to the Otrainnthatthetracks.

It has a rather unpleasant reputa-

tion that earned it an equally unpleasant nickname: The Rape Trail.

“Just calling it ‘The Rape Trail’ perpetuates the normalization of sexual assault on campus,” Jerad Prevost told a crowd of about 50 people last Thursday (May 4). As emcee of the event, the culmination of a semester’s worth of work in a class called Social Movements, the Chico State student spoke animatedly and passionately about changing attitudes about rape among the campus community.

The class project had several goals, fellow student Madison Zimmerman told the group, which was assembled on the trail. Among the “list of demands,” as she called them, are renaming the path, installing a plaque with that new name, and painting the bridge crossing Big Chico Creek at Cherry Street teal, the color for sexual assault awareness.

Among the biggest issues addressed during the rally—dubbed Join the cause: Take Back For more information on ’Cats for Consent, which is working to rename the Trail— what’s known as The Rape Trail on were hookup Chico State’s campus, find the group culture, rape on Facebook and Twitter. culture and the sense of entitlement some people have over others’ bodies. “We need more education about consent,” one student told the crowd. “We don’t get a lot of information about it in high school, so when we get here we have to learn

how to ask for and give consent.”

In an effort to offer that education, and to promote understanding of what it means to say “yes” or “no” to a sexual encounter, the class also started a new club on campus called ’Cats for Consent. Its self-described as a “student-led social movement striving to dismantle the rape culture that plagues our campus.”

In addition to student speakers, faculty took to the stage as well. Eddie Vela, for instance, dean of the College of Behavioral and Social Sciences, rallied behind the class.

SIFT ER Oh, Canada Americans can toss out thoughts about being liked by Canadians.

According to a poll released this week by the Environics Institute for Survey Research (EISR), 53 percent of our neighbors to the north hold unfavorable views of the United States. Just 44 percent of respondents view the U.S. favorably. That’s a steep decline from 2012, when an overwhelming majority (68 percent) of Canucks viewed America in a positive light. Who’s to blame? The EISR attributes the drop to the election of President Donald Trump.

Egypt Howard, a graduate student in the Social Movements class at Chico State, tells a group gathered on what’s known as The Rape Trail that rape culture must not be tolerated on campus.

“The university values students who are civically engaged,” he said. “What this is is a collective commitment to our safety—it says, ‘We’re here to look out for each other on a daily basis.’”

Others echoed his message and urged everyone to have the courage to stand up not only for themselves but also for others.

Stepping up as a bystander in a situation where someone else is being victimized in some way can be difficult and uncomfortable, one speaker said. But it’s an important part of restructuring people’s attitudes about what is OK. “We need to foster a culture of respect,” she said. “We need to keep showing up until the violence stops.”

The final speaker of the day, student Kimani Davis, had a powerful message. As a man, Davis said, he’s often not taken seriously when he says he’s a rape survivor. But he was raped. By a woman. It does happen, he said.

“I’ve suffered depression, I’ve felt broken, and I’ve felt alone,” Davis said. “I’m telling my story, but there are probably thousands of stories out there that are going unheard.”

and he tends to get frustrated when he can’t make sense of a situation.

Case in point: Back in November, voters approved Proposition 55, which extends an income tax on the wealthiest Californians to help pay for public services, including schools. Then the California State University board of trustees voted in March to increase student tuition by 5 percent. The tuition hike alone is set to infuse tens of millions of dollars into the CSU system annually.

So why, Jones asked, is Chico State’s College of Humanities and Fine Arts suddenly looking up from the bottom of a big budget deficit?

“We’re all waiting for an explanation. … When you don’t have a clear explanation, you hypothesize,” he said.

In an email to faculty on April 24, Dean Robert Knight announced that the college is facing a $1.2 million shortfall heading into fiscal year 2017-18. (For reference, the total 2016-17 budget was $10.9 million.) Canceling classes next fall seems like a certainty,

Jones said, but exactly how many is anyone’s guess. Meanwhile, all funding for professional development—money that allows faculty to travel and present research at conferences and publish in peerreviewed journals—has been frozen indefinitely.

In the absence of straight answers, rumors are swirling and staff morale is low, said Susanna Boxall, a philosophy and humanities lecturer. She’s concerned that students who are struggling to pay tuition won’t be able to take the general education classes they need to graduate. Like other adjunct faculty, who are not tenured, she is afraid of losing her job.

“Nobody was looking each other in the eyes for a couple of days,” she said.

News of the shortfall comes amid

broader scrutiny of the way the entire CSU system handles public funds. Last month, State Auditor Elaine Howle concluded in an exhaustive report that, across the board, CSU campuses “do not adequately oversee their budgets.”

Furthermore, the institutions lack written policies and records of

spending levels compared with budget limits, “which hampers accountability and transparency,” Howle wrote.

It’s all too familiar to Boxall, who feared for her livelihood in fall 2015 due to rumors of budgetrelated layoffs (see “Classes dismissed?” Newslines, Dec. 3, 2015). But that was under an administration led by President Paul Zingg, Interim Provost Susan Elrod and Lorraine Hoffman, vice president for business and finance—an executive trio widely criticized for opaque and unilateral decision-making. All three were delivered votes of no confidence

by Chico State’s Academic Senate in December 2015 and have since left their posts at the university.

Many on campus expect greater transparency from President Gayle Hutchinson and recently hired Provost Debra Larson, the latter of whom is responsible for setting Robert Jones, a philosophy professor at Chico State, poses outside the Arts and Humanities Building. He says faculty members in the College of Humanities and Fine Arts are “all waiting for a clear explanation” of the suddenly announced shortfall. photo by howard hardee

the budget.

“We thought those days were over,” Boxall said.

Goin’ ChiCo

stance is that the College of Humanities and Fine Arts isn’t paying for itself. The program offers many state-mandated general education courses in English, history, arts, music and philosophy that students need to graduate with a bachelor’s degree. As Knight explained in his email to faculty, the college breaks even on those courses.

However, it’s been losing money on upper-division classes due to enrollment that has been steadily dwindling since 2008, Larson wrote in an email to the CN&R. “Our experiences are, unfortunately, in line with the national trends in enrollment by students in the arts and humanities,” she said.

Jones acknowledged that attracting and retaining students who major in arts and humanities is an ongoing problem, but he doesn’t believe it explains the college’s entire deficit.

“Shouldn’t somebody be budgeting for that? This is what administrators are supposed to be doing,” he said. “This is their job.

My job is to serve my students in the classroom and be a professional philosopher. Their job is to figure out this number-crunching.”

As to why news of the budget deficit came so suddenly, Larson said there were “a number of administrative transitions” when she became provost on March 2, adding: “As soon as I began to understand the HFA budget situation, I reached out to the dean.”

The budget shortfall is unique to the College of Humanities and Fine Arts, Larson continued. All other colleges on campus are “finishing the fiscal year even or in the black.” She acknowledged that classes with low enrollment are in danger of getting cut next fall— and, when asked about the future of arts and humanities instructors, she said simply: “Our full-time faculty are not at risk.”

Larson has agreed to hold an on-campus meeting on May 19, the last day of final exams, to go over the budget outlook with HFA faculty.

Filling the gap and bellies University pantry, programs address problem affecting nearly half the student body: food insecurity story and photo by

Evan Tuchinsky

evant@ n ewsrev i ew. com

Beating Ramos rarely gave a second thought to food from a charitable pantry. Her efore enrolling at Chico State, Brenda

divorced parents did not always have the resources to fill the kitchen cupboards for her, her twin sister and older brother. Food banks filled the gap.

“I didn’t think too much about it,” Ramos recalled. “At first I was kind of embarrassed about it, but year after year, [as] we faced that difficulty … I thought, ‘Oh, it’s free food!’ To us, it was normal.”

Ramos left Vacaville in fall 2013. Her sister also came to Chico State. Once here, she still faced challenges getting three full meals a day—even when living in a dorm and on a campus food plan, since the plan she could afford provided only lunch and dinner.

A friend, who’d become her boyfriend, told her about the Hungry Wildcat Food Pantry, which, coincidentally, started the year Ramos arrived. The pantry—located in a Kendall Hall office and overseen by Kathleen Maroney, assistant to the associate vice president of student affairs—gives foodstuffs for free to students in Ramos’ predicament.

The problem strikes approximately 8,000 Chico State students, or 46 percent of the student body. That finding comes from a recent study conducted by the campus’ Center for Healthy Communities and College of Natural Sciences. The study report links food insecurity with “lower

14

m ay 1 1 , 2 0 1 7

levels of cognitive function, higher levels of mental distress and, consequently … lower levels of academic performance.”

Ramos followed her friend’s advice and visited the pantry, in Kendall 110. She returned repeatedly and made such strong personal connections that she now works as a student assistant in the Division of Student Affairs, as does her twin. Ramos’ duties include work for the pantry, though she’s an ambassador of her own accord.

“A lot of people need assistance, and it’s fine,” said Ramos, 21, who is on track to graduate next year.

Maroney, who founded the pantry, was moti-

vated by an individual like Ramos. She’d fielded a call from a faculty member during the 2011-12 academic year about a student who came to class hungry and couldn’t pay attention. The professor, whose identity she can’t recall, inquired: “Where’s the pantry

aPPOINTmENT CELEBRATING HEALTHY MINDS The Iversen Wellness and Recovery Center is an organization in Chico made up of people living with mental illness and drug issues.

Together, they develop the skills necessary to pursue their individual goals and become peer mentors for people dealing with similar life issues. All services—arts and crafts, guest speakers, community outings, computer training, Internet access and more—are free. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, the center (492 Rio Lindo Ave.) is hosting a fair featuring community booths, food, music and more on Wednesday (May 17) from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Call 879-3311 for more information.

on campus?”

Maroney didn’t have an answer. At first she thought it was because she’d just arrived and didn’t have the information, but she discovered the campus had no food bank; students got referred to places elsewhere in the community such as the Jesus Center.

She noticed in the Student Affairs suite an empty office with a book shelf, which she began filling with food items she’d collect at various division events. Soon students—athletes, fraternities and sororities—launched food drives.

“The inspiration for all [of] us is helping students be successful,” Maroney said.

Joe Picard felt that passion, too. As Chico State’s marketing director for Regional and Continuing Education, he felt he could bring his background to bear to help the pantry expand.

During high school in Los Angeles, he volunteered in a Skid Row soup kitchen. At UC Davis, he studied agriculture and spent a lot of time at the student farm. Picard melded those experiences into a means through which students can obtain fresh greens for free.

In February 2015, the pantry began distributing paper vouchers called Veggie Bucks that students exchange for boxes of produce grown by the Organic Vegetable Project on 3 acres at the University Farm.

Picard put down the first $20; donations allowed the program to grow; and, this spring, a $20,100 sustainability grant from Associated Students allowed the pantry to broaden the Veggie Bucks concept into a debit-card system at specified campus eateries.

In addition, the pantry serves as a registration point for CalFresh, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, through which the state directs federal funds to lowincome people needing help affording food.

The Center for Healthy Communities provides assistance.

“If a student were to do it by themselves,

it might take them two hours,” Maroney said, “and these interns get the students through it in 20 minutes.”

A.S. is rolling out its own program to combat student hunger: an alert to leftovers. The student union runs a catering service that often winds up with extra food after events. The caterers send out a text notification to subscribers, who then have the next half-hour or so to glean.

“Intended or not intended, we throw away food, because food can only stay out for two hours,” said Thang Ho, IT director for A.S. Now, once the expiration time hits, “a lot of the food is gone.”

That success has prompted the organization to increase sign-ups from 500 in the pilot group to campus-wide in the fall.

The Hungry Wildcat Food Pantry is

expanding as well. By fall semester, it will move to a larger space in Siskiyou Hall.

It’s currently the single largest customer of the OVP, which holds a market day on campus during the school year. Wholesale purchases from Chico Natural Foods and pantry-rate bulk buys from the North State Food Bank keep the shelves stocked when donations fall short of demand. The Chico

From her vantage point at the produce table, OVP market Manager Kim Narol sees the need.

Most every Wednesday from 10-1, when she’s set up outside the BMU, a dozen students cash in Veggie Bucks for produce. Others purchase low-cost veggies and greens.

“There’s a ton of students that are suffering from food insecurity and are unable to buy fresh produce,” said Narol, a graduate student in agricultural education.

All told, the pantry has distributed 19 tons of food to 2,000 students.

“I get so choked up,” Maroney said. “It has been so enriching personally to do this and provide this service. They are so grateful … it’s hard to be in class when you’re hungry and worried about where your next meal is coming from.” □

WEEKLY DOSE Calorie queries Counting calories has long been a strategy for people looking to lose weight, but there are still a handful of common misconceptions about what calories are. In short, a calorie is “a unit of measure for the energy in food,” according to Berkeley Wellness, a collaboration of UC Berkeley School of Public Health and a team of national writers. Here are answers to a few basic calorie questions: • Are calories bad? You need them to live. The problem is overconsumption, and the source matters: You may get 100 calories from eating broccoli or a small cookie, but the cookie doesn’t nourish you in the same way.

• How many calories are in different foods? Here’s how the basic components break down: carbohydrates (4 calories per gram), protein (4 cal/gm), fat (9 cal/gm) and alcohol (7 cal/gm).

• Why do calories make me gain weight? Calories themselves weigh nothing, but excess calories are stored as potential energy in the form of body fat, which has mass (i.e., weight).

GREENWAYS Kolleen Kingsley shares her love of gardening and agriculture. “I don’t mean to sound like too much of a hippie,” she says, “but playing in the soil is therapeutic on so many levels.”

Seeds for tomorrow

situated in and cared for by the Horticulture Department at Butte College’s main campus. Kingsley hopes to have the seed bank open to the public by the beginning of next semester.

“We are collecting donated heirloom seeds from sustainable sources … to create a secure and diverse assortment,” she explained. Those sources include farms, nurseries and seed companies; Kingsley said she also hopes community members will donate “anything unusual and unique.”

The seed bank will accept seeds on a continuous basis, though Kingsley is trying to collect as many as she can by the end of May. Names of individuals and organizations who pledge or give seeds by that deadline will be engraved on a plaque installed on the seed bank structure. Beyond that, all donations will be tracked in a log.

“The creation of the seed bank is intended to provide our local community with a vast variety of seeds that could in return provide food supply and security and serve as a learning area for interested horticulturists, scientist and researchers,” she said.

tory.

Though mostly raised in Butte County, Kolleen Kingsley has spent much of her life traveling the world, alone and with family.

Of all the places she’s visited in 21 countries, nature-loving Kingsley said she was perhaps most profoundly affected by a sojourn to Central America during her teen years.

“My family is from Costa Rica, and I’m the first generation born in America,” Kingsley, 30, said during a recent interview on her front porch in Oroville that’s crowded with potted seedlings, which eventually will make their way into her large backyard garden. “I spent some time living with my family there during the summer months; they’re all farmers and have been for generations.

“I really appreciated the lifestyle, the culture, their relationship with their environment and how happy everyone seemed.

They were healthy, growing their own food, living off the land and respecting nature because of it.”

Kingsley’s experience in her ancestral home-

land left a lasting impression that she carried in her future travels, which she said exposed her to “many exotic and spectacularly diverse farming methods.” When she settled back in Butte County four years ago, she decided to dedicate her life to learning more about agriculture—particularly progressive, green practices—and eventually enrolled in Butte College’s Sustainability Studies program.

Kingsley spoke highly of the school’s sustain-

paid internship though Strategic Energy Innovations (SEI), a nonprofit group dedicated to energy, sustainability and carbon reduction issues that partners with Butte College and other schools. Her internship program, which is called Energizing Colleges, encourages students to start projects aimed at gaining real-world experience and educating others about sustainable practices.

“The seed bank fits very well into our goals with the program, especially from a sustainability standpoint,” said John Dalgren, Butte’s faculty adviser for the internship program and chair of the college’s Computer Science, Sustainable Technologies and Engineering program. “This particular project is a great example of how one student’s passion can help us create new and

meaningful programs that can help expand our existing curriculum.”

With Butte College celebrating its 50th anni-

versary next semester, Kingsley hoped to create a project that will last for posterity.

She began soliciting seeds in March and has received pledges from more than a halfdozen sources, including Redwood Seeds, Petaluma Seed Bank, GRUB and Treetop Permaculture. The last group is also helping to construct a secure wooden structure to house all of the seeds. The plan is for it to be

ability program, noting it takes just one year to complete and the certification offered unlocks a vast array of opportunities.

“In just two semesters you can have an umbrella of career pathways,” she said.

“Sustainability taps into everything— journalism, agriculture, resource management, education. There’s just so much you can do with it.”

She said she also appreciates the experiences the semester-long SEI internship has given her. For example, last week (May 3) she attended a conference on biochar at UC Merced. Biochar is charcoal made from plant material that is used as a carbonrich soil amendment and is also touted as a way to use less water in agriculture. During the conference, Kingsley said, she met other interns and sustainability students from as far away as Indonesia, and sat on panels with government officials directly involved in policy making.

“This program is really amazing because they encourage students to dive into these really hands-on projects without fear,” she said, adding: “In this program, you are an inventor and a creator.” □

take a look, it’s in a book

Don’t expect green beer

Erin Horst moved to Chico three years ago from Kansas City. With a young child at home, she quickly noticed the lack of options for finding quality books for kids here in Chico. Barnes & Noble is fine, she said, but relatively expensive. And she hasn’t had much luck at used bookstores. So, in March, the drama teacher at Inspire School of Arts and Sciences decided to do something about it. She hooked up with Usborne Publishing, based in the United Kingdom, and became a seller—much like one would do with Mary Kay cosmetics, “except I don’t have to keep inventory.” Nicknamed the Chico Book Lady, Horst is currently holding a fundraiser—through May 15, though she may extend it—called Cards for a Cause. She is selling greeting cards that come in different packages and cost $30 apiece, and the cause is helping open Chico Children’s Museum, which gets $13 of every card box sold. To learn more, find the Chico Book Lady on Facebook.

As a certain frog used to say, “It’s not easy being green.” And you know, he was right. It’s hard enough to make a house or apartment energy-efficient—I recently inspected my own home and found several issues that need to be addressed. But, replacing all the windows? That’s pricey! So, I can only imagine the cost and effort involved in upgrading an entire business.

Which brings me to a cool event being held Wednesday (May 17), from 3-5 p.m. at the Sierra Nevada Big Room. Hosted by the city’s Sustainability Task Force, the Chico Chamber of Commerce and the brewery, the Sustainable Business Expo & Happy Hour will offer local business owners an opportunity to learn about becoming more efficient. And yes, there will be beer—just don’t count on it being green (which is a good thing).

The event is designed to make it a little bit easier for businesses to connect with resources that can help them decrease their carbon footprint. There will be booths set up by local companies that offer environmental services like solar installation, along with info on how to take advantage of rebates and other incentives. And, did I mention there’d be beer? To top it off, it’s free. So, mark your calendar. RSVPs are encouraged, as space is limited. Send an email to info@chicochamber.org or call 891-5556.

How did you find Usborne?

I first got [Usborne books] given to me from my mom, and I noticed that they were a little bit better quality than some of the other books I’d found in the store. They just don’t fall apart. And, with a toddler, that was impressive. I ordered one book called Everyone Poops. It was a book that I remembered reading and I had such a fondness for it, and I was just like, “You know what? This is really great. I’m going to do this.” I’m passionate about good stories, and these are good stories and good quality.

How did you get involved with fundraising for the Chico Children’s Museum?

I had a children’s museum that I went to when I was growing up, and I have so many fond memories of it. And, raising kids here in Chico, there’s so much to do outside, and so many great things to engage your kids in, but on those rainy days—we really need to get this. So when I saw it was under construction, I emailed [museum President] Dana

Scientists in Greenland are keeping tabs on the unsettling pace at which the ice sheet is melting.

A

slow-moving emergency is lapping at California’s shores— climate-driven sea-level rise that experts now predict could elevate the water in coastal areas up to 10 feet in just 70 years, gobbling up beachfront property and overwhelming low-lying cities.

The speed with which polar ice is melting and glacier shelves are cracking off indicates to some scientists that once-unthinkable outer-range projections of sea rise may turn out to be too conservative. A knee-buckling new state-commissioned report warns that if nothing changes, California’s coastal waters will rise at a rate 30 to 40 times faster than in the last century.

The potential result: crippled economies, compromised public safety, submerged infrastructure, and a forced retreat from our iconic Pacific coast.

No state has done more than California to curb greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change and sea-level rise. But experts say that even if carbon reductions continue, residual warming of the ocean will continue unchecked, breeding surges that will impact the state’s coast and Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta.

Last month, the U.S. Geological Survey estimated that without concerted intervention, as much as 67 percent of Southern California’s beaches could be lost to rising seas by the end of the century (see list at right).

The grim outlook is mirrored in the latest report, which last week was presented for adoption by the California Ocean Protection Council.

Its sea-level rise projections will assist state agencies and local governments with planning.

No stretch of the state’s 3,400 miles of coast, bays, inlets and islands will be spared.

Addressing sea-level rise will cost a staggering amount of public and private money, and will particularly impact the poor and vulnerable. The problem becomes more urgent with much of California’s wealth huddled along the coast, supporting an ocean-dependent $44 billion economy.

In the end, state and local officials may come to the gut-wrenching conclusion that some coastal land should be simply abandoned.

“We’re not doing well at all,” said Democratic Assemblyman Mark Stone, chairman of the Select Committee on Coastal Protection and Access to Natural Resources. “We have yet to really start to answer the hard questions and make policy—saying, ‘No, we are not going to put public money here.’ Eventually, we should get to the point that we are not going to do any public investment in those places anymore.”

Most scientists tread lightly in the policy realm, providing the information for others to craft into regulations. Not Bill Patzert, who has for years sounded the alarm about rising oceans.

“It’s not an existential threat. It’s real.

It’s gonna happen,” said Patzert, a climatologist at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

“Here’s the bigger issue: If you’re in the

tunnel and you see the train coming at you, what do you do? Do you race towards it or do you back out? It’s just common sense.

As a society, why aren’t we doing that?”

From deep in the hive of large brains at

the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, set hard against the San Gabriel Mountains, an intense group of scientists from Caltech and NASA are harnessing satellites that for decades have been peering into space and are now directing their gaze to Earth.

The researchers—with advanced degrees in physics, mathematics and oceanography—are engaged in what many consider to be the critical research of our time.

They are watching ice melt.

Sitting alone in a cubicle, bathed in the glow of a computer screen or staring down the barrel of a telescope, can be a balm for scientists. Concerning themselves with one finite slice of a planet-wide catastrophe allows them to compartmentalize and disengage from the entire sobering picture.

But even professional detachment fails against the unfolding horror show depicted in the cold display of satellite imagery.

A consensus of scientific research makes “We are in the process catastrophic projections that, in the worst of watching the ice sheet in Greenland disappear,” said the case, will be reality by the end of this lab’s oceanographer, Josh Willis, century: who leads a team studying Greenland. “This is the first time • International airports in San Francisco humans have been able to measure and Oakland will face flooding, rendering it.

around Greenland. Because he has a sense of humor, his project is known to all as OMG: Oceans Melting Greenland. (He preferred calling it Water Temperature Fjords, but couldn’t get the acronym past government sensibilities.)

“As scientists, we’re witnessing these huge events, and it’s telling us how the Earth is changing,” Willis said. “Of course, I’m also a citizen, I live on this planet, and it is worrying that it’s happening. It’s sometimes profoundly shocking to wake up and realize we’re reshaping our entire planet.”

Understanding the threat of sea-

level rise in California depends to some extent on where you are standing: Boots in the dust of the Central Valley and you might curse the lateness of a rail shipment held up by flooding at the port of Oakland; bare feet in the sand at Huntington Beach and you may have to consider relocating your family, your home and all your possessions.

Some simple math: Every inch of sea-level rise equates to an 8- to 10-feet loss of beach. So, using the conservative projection of a 4-foot rise, and the lower-end 8-foot-perinch formula, that equates to 384 feet of coastal beach loss in the next 70 years.

The 10-foot-rise scenario, which scientists peg as the new worst case, would cause a land loss of 800 feet—the length of 2 1/2 football fields. The sea will not rise the same amount in every place; scientists say each discrete elevation is dependent on factors such as the shape of the sea floor and the slope of the landfall.

Considering the scope of this coming catastrophe, it does not appear to be front-of-mind to many in the state. But that doesn’t mean it’s gone unstudied. California has a peerless capacity to turn over

problems until they are smooth and shiny. Understanding comes first, with action often a distant and expensive second.

A tour through recent scientific analyses: A 2009 report on sea-level rise commissioned by the state paints worst-case scenarios that are the stuff of disaster movies: A halfmillion Californians at risk of flooding and more than $100 billion worth of infrastructure. More than two dozen coastal power plants flooded, along with hundreds of hazardous waste facilities, as well as schools, hospitals, police stations, ports and major airports.

A 2012 report prepared for the California Energy Commission focused just on the San Francisco Bay and its 1,000 miles of shoreline, concluding: “Rising sea levels will overwhelm the existing protection structures, putting the 140,000 people currently living in vulnerable areas at increased risk.”

The authors cautioned their findings did not reflect worst-case scenarios. And, if no action is taken to address the vulnerabilities, the risk projections should be considered “substantially low.”

The California Assembly weighed in with a report in 2014, and the next year the Senate chimed in with its own review, amping it up a bit: “With current projections, rising seas combined with a 100-year flood event would close over 2,000 miles of roadway, the Oakland and San Francisco airports, and the Port of Oakland.”

The sobering fact of those stateof-the-art reports, recent though they are, is that they are already out of date and not nearly comprehensive enough in describing the scope of what currently faces California.

Nor remotely scary enough. What scientists are observing now is, they say, a rapid and steep change that, even as it unfolds over com-

paratively long periods of time, is nonetheless occurring at a breathtaking pace.

Sea-level rise is caused primarily

by two factors related to global warming: the expansion of seawater as it heats up and the added water volume from melting ice.

Researchers focused on glacial melt in Greenland and Antarctica see the process as an action-packed cataclysm marked by heaving ice shelves collapsing into the sea and sheets of decaying ice sloughing off the end of a continent.

The power unleashed by that tide of ice is awesome to contemplate. Water has always been one of the most destructive and transformative forces in nature. With warmer waters creating more energy that incubates more powerful storms, some see a near future in which seas assault our coast more frequently and with greater force.

Exhibit A: California’s past winter, when repeated storms lashed the state, resulting in a preliminary price tag of $569 million and a federal disaster declaration.

Scientists warn that intensified El Niño events, coupled with higher seas, will bring about unprecedented flooding. What civil engineers refer to as nuisance flooding—overwhelmed storm sewers and street flooding—is already more common. King tides

are getting worse. Commuting times, the ability of first-responders to get to an accident scene, and the transportation of goods by road will be severely compromised, researchers say.

That risk, too, can be observed at its point of origin. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) maintains tide gauges that bob and float in U.S. waters, sentinels sending out a stream of data measuring current sea levels. The information feeds tidal forecasts used by surfers and mariners, and is also monitored by emergency services.

The tide and currents map is both colorful and alarming. The maps depict the North American continent ringed by arrows pointing straight up, denoting trending rising sea levels, like pickets defending the coast.

It turns out the coast is all but

defenseless.

Brett Sanders, a civil and environmental engineer at UC Irvine, is using a grant from the National Science Foundation to help inform communities along the California and northern Mexican coast about the risk of rising waters. Most people are thrilled that they’ve managed to fulfill a dream of living near the beach, Sanders said, and are unaware of what they should do to protect themselves.

Rising seas are already claiming some coastal regions, including this stretch in the Bay Area. photo by eric cheng via the nature conservancy

“We have done a bad job of mapping flood risk. It’s awful,” Sanders said.

Zillow, the website that calculates residential real estate values, recently took its maps of coastal property and overlaid NOAA’s sea-level projections. Using what are now thought to be conservative projections, the company estimated 2 million coastal homes in the United States would be underwater by the end of the century.

Not as in being upside down on a mortgage, but as in fish swimming through the den. The total value of those homes? Nearly $1 trillion, in California, $49 billion.

Svenja Gudell, Zillow’s chief economist, said she was surprised that, when the company shared its information with mayors or city planners, officials saw it as an event that would take place far in the future.

“For some of these places, the time horizon is not 100 years; it’s happening now,” she said. “It’s not as top of mind as it should be or you would like it to be. People are underinsured when it comes to flood insurance. The system is broken.”

Gudell said her research showed that homeowners living in high-risk areas are not getting market cues— real estate values in beach areas destroyed by Hurricane Sandy are now higher than before the superstorm that played out on national television in the fall of 2012.

“We were not able to explain that rationally,” Gudell said. “We will see in the future, if you are on a cliff and that cliff is further eroding and if you put a piece of property on that land, it won’t be safe anymore. For now, the benefit of living in these homes clearly outweighs the current and future cost of living there.”

Which leaves us with the National Flood Insurance Program, a troubled and debt-ridden program operated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency. The flood insurance covers millions of Americans living in flood zones, based on maps that are decades out of date. The program is currently $24 billion in debt and requires reauthorization from Congress.

Critics of the federal insurance say the rates don’t reflect current risks, leaving taxpayers on the hook for someone else’s folly.

Democratic state Sen. Henry Stern represents a coastal district that includes Malibu and a string of state beaches. A lifelong surfer, he understands the attraction.

“It’s so alluring,” he said of living by the beach. “But my whole thing is to make the market tell the truth about it. We know where sea level rise is going to happen. What I don’t want to happen is for all of us to bear the bill afterwards.”

Even with the horrific projections scientists have repeatedly shared about public health and safety associated with rising seas, it might be the economic cost that spurs action. A 2016 paper published in the journal Nature estimated the annual global cost for sea-level rise adaptation measures at about $421 billion per year.

The authors of the study argue that the figure doesn’t take into account population growth and clustering around coasts. By the year 2100, the report warns, the price tag for mass relocations

What scientists are observing now is, they say, a rapid and steep change that, even as it unfolds over comparatively long periods of time, is nonetheless occurring at a breathtaking pace. could exceed $14 trillion. Given California’s coastal population clusters—75 percent of the state’s residents live in a coastal county— the figure here will be enormous.

The Ocean Protection Council

that received the new statecommissioned science report is a California agency whose mission, as its name implies, is to look after the welfare of California’s piece of the Pacific Ocean. It’s an almost laughably large responsibility, and one that the members approach thoughtfully.

The report placed the scientific findings at the forefront, said Liz Whiteman, the science and strategy director for the Ocean Science Trust, which was a partner in the study. That means the analysis does not entertain the question of whether climate change is altering the behavior of the Pacific. Nor does it belabor stale arguments about how weather has always changed. It is, rather, an unsparing document that presents the best projections about the range of sea rise and, for the first time, assigns a probability and risk to those numbers.

“California is in a great place for being willing to call the hard question and not shying away,” Whiteman said. “There is no doubt that there is some scary information contained in a report looking at sea-level rise and our future.”

Dan Cayan, one of seven scientists who contributed to the newest report, is a researcher at Scripps Institution of Oceanography investigating how climate affects changes in oceans. Viewed from his office window in La Jolla, the Pacific Ocean appears benign and soothing. But a glimpse into the updated information he’s assembling paints a different, darker picture.

New data and more sophisticated modeling, he said, coupled with more extreme climate warming, “is going to be pushing the amount

of sea-level rise above what was thought to be reasonable.”

Comparing previous projections to current ones, he said, is no longer useful. “We’re actually off this scale,” he said.

Cayan pulls out the 2012 report from the National Research Council, which is the basis for California’s current sea-level rise assumptions and the predicate for the state’s coastal policies. The mid-range of its projections envisions about 3 feet of rise by 2100.

Then he carefully takes out a sheet with the new data. Cayan points at the elaborate graphs to the updated mid-range projection— 8½ feet. Cayan and his colleagues shrug off questions about how to apply their science—that’s the job of the politicians. But the report does counsel state officials to consider the worst-case scenario in their deliberations, and cautions: “Waiting for scientific certainty is neither a safe nor prudent option.”

So what now? California planners

and policymakers will pore over the latest report. Their deliberations will result, at some point, in “updated guidance” to use the parlance of the bureaucracy. The final document will help local officials incorporate the sea-level rise projections into their future plans for building and safety, in some cases altering zoning and building codes.

Meanwhile, Greenland’s summer ice melt season begins, and the 2-mile-deep ice sheet that was created in the last Ice Age continues to shrink. Researchers drilling ice cores have been astounded to find more and more streams of water rushing below the sheet—a river of water scything through ice. The proliferation of these ‘melt streams’ is leading scientists to consider that the loss of Greenland’s ice may be set on an unstoppable trajectory.

Getting their hands dirty

PHoTo coUrTesy of 1078 Gallery

THIS WEEK

With big changes afoot, 1078 hosts vibrant ceramic show

THU

820 Broadway location, 1078 Gallery Fpresents a solid variety show of ceramic or the final exhibition at its

art—appropriately titled Alma Mudder— produced by 11 artists who all, according to the by gallery’s website, “studCarey ied at CSU Chico in the Wilson last decade, graduated, and moved on to higher Review: education, artist residenalma mudder, on cies, employment or display through other opportunities.” may 27 at There’s an impres1078 Gallery. sive range of viewpoints 1078 Gallery and styles that admirably 820 Broadway showcases the medium of 343-1973 www.1078gallery.org clay’s boundless potential for creative expression—a sentiment that also could be applied to the long-running gallery itself. For 36 years, the 1078’s modus operandi has been to push the envelope, providing a space for a wide range of contemporary and experimental works from all disciplines. Once the gallery’s recent eviction goes into effect at the end of May, and until a new location is found, there will be a heart-sized hole in Chico’s body of culture.

For now, we have one last exhibit, and its Cinco de Mayo reception drew a bustling multigenerational crowd of Chico art lovers to mingle with makers among the pedestals while the ambient, electronically enhanced guitar instrumentals of Mat Houghton, aka Cat Depot, gently echoed and looped in the background.

Near the entrance, Brian McNamara’s “The Desert Part 1” sits on the floor. Its bulbously conical construction is reminiscent of a rustic clay hut when viewed from the back, but from the front it reveals a rather demented-looking human face leering out from where one might expect the door and windows to be. A little girl, about 5 or 6 years old, who was standing nearby told me it was her favorite piece in the show.

On the wall above McNamara’s installation, Kelly Lynn Daniels’ “Dreaming of Spring”—a six-panel porcelain depiction of foliage and floral motifs etched and painted in autumnal tones of orange, blue-gray and black—conveys a Buddhistic acceptance of Earth’s ever-renewing cycle of seasons.

Also reflecting organic forms, but in a more abstract style, Meaghan Gates’ intricate ceramic, glaze and paint construction, “Open Up,” feels oceanic in inspiration. Its anemone-like

turquoise-tentacled base, interconnected flesh-toned top and liverish interior petals looks like something one might discover while gazing into a psychedelic tide pool.

Rickie Barnett—the most heavily represented artist in the show, with six pieces on display—specializes in whimsical, somewhat melancholic depictions of human states of mind and interaction. In “Alone Again on the Weekend,” subtitled “Portrait of a young man trying to quit smoking,” a boyish figure dressed in a uniform shirt decorated with a shovel emblem, green short pants and brogan shoes sits on a wall-mounted shelf. There’s a cigarette dangling from his left hand, but in place of a head, the figure has a rustic cabin with a smokestack chimney pipe sticking out of a wall near the peaked roof. It conveys a mingled sense of dejection and humor.

Similar in feeling is Jacob Troester’s “Went to bed, bumped his head, got lost in the flood,” another wall-mounted piece.

This one depicts a bespectacled older man slouched openmouthed and shut-eyed in his recliner. Behind the chair, lightening bolts erupt and amorphous brown goop oozes from an old-fashioned TV embedded in a buttressed construction evoking a medieval hearth.

Overall, Alma Mudder presents a very rich sampling of ceramic styles and visions, all unearthed from the imaginations and craftsmanship of makers whose skills were developed in part right in Chico. One can only look forward in hope to the 1078 Gallery quickly finding a new home for presenting such vital exhibitions. □

THE SoUNd oF ’FUNKEL One half of the legendary folk duo Simon & Garfunkel is going to play in Paradise, which isn’t a sentence we expected to ever print in the CN&R. It’s almost impossible to overemphasize how big of a deal it is for a six-time Grammy Award winner, 1990 inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and owner of one of the most beautiful, important voices of the 1960s counterculture movement to play on the Ridge. But seriously, you can catch Art Garfunkel and his tender-sweet countertenor at the Paradise Performing Arts Center at 8 tonight, May 11.

The Loyalists on stage at The Night Light in Oakland.

PHOTO BY ANDREW HIGHLAND

Oakland’s Loyalists dig through the trash heap

Hfoursome for being difficult. For Oakland The Loyalists, the illueavy music has a reputation

sion of complication on their second album, Ride the Trashheap of by Ryan J. Sound, is central Prado to the band’s aesthetic.

“One of the Preview: cornerstones The Loyalists perform tonight, May 11, of this band is 7:30 p.m., at Cafe that you can’t Coda. West by Swan take much—or and XDS open. any—of it too Cost: $7 seriously,” said Cafe Coda Max Sidman, 265 Humboldt Ave. ex-Chico denizen 566-9476 and bassist for The Loyalists.

“The thing about this band is that it’s really greater than the sum of its parts, and it’s a lot of layers.”

Beginning with the ethereal, roiling turns of “On the Day That Philip Seymour Hoffman Died,” Ride the Trashheap of Sound extends a brooding veil over a raucous musical onslaught. The band’s thrust comes from the thud of muddy fuzz effects, low tunings and borderless sonic intrepidity typically found in the realms of strictly instrumental bands. It’s a unique and noisy barrage that binds

with vocalist/guitarist/cellist Colin Frangos’ voice, approximating the experimental 1990s sludge of bands like Mclusky or Melvins.

“Some of the songs on this album are super fucked up,” said Sidman, who’s been with the band since its inception in 2012. “My mom asked me what the album was about and I told her ‘drug abuse and suicide.’ It’s not just about that, but if you wanna paint really broad brush strokes ….

Hey, it’s fun music, too, right? The Loyalists: Making drug abuse and suicide fun since 2012.”

Rounded out by guitarist/vocalist Andre Zivkovich and drummer Chad Burnett, the band revels in the grimy undercurrent of noisy bands, a fact that is perhaps best exemplified on the title track, a song possessing a fairly accurate assessment of the Loyalists’ M.O. “It’s a nuanced, garbage dump of sound,” Sidman said. “We like to make things sound a little bit off. It’s not like that traditional ‘we’re playing these notes because they go very well with these notes.’ That’s not our thing. And it’s not that we set out to repel people necessarily—that wouldn’t be productive. But we certainly set out to make people’s ears a little bit uncomfortable.”

The record was engineered by

Kowloon Walled City’s Scott Evans at Sharkbite Studios in Oakland, and mixed at Evans’ Antisleep Audio.

Along with Evans’ steady production, Sidman is quick to point to Frangos as the mastermind behind much of what the band accomplishes. Alongside Zivkovich’s guitar and vocals, Frangos attacks with biting guitar progressions and dark lyricism, as heard in the twisted catharsis of standout track “Rainbow of Potted Meats.”

Frangos’ fledgling cello playing is another source of the Loyalists’ nebulous creative wellspring.

“He’s been playing cello for [only] about as long as this band has existed,” Sidman explained.

“That element is capitalized on by the fact that he has no preconceived notions of how to play it.”

In support of the new record, the band is stretching its legs on a brief West Coast tour, and keeping things very DIY. “We’re all in our mid-40s, and musically, culturally, we lean the same way,” Sidman said. “We like that mold of old-man, noisy punk.

It’s fun, and it’s also humbling to play stuff that’s challenging for people to get down with. We just wanna do what we wanna do. It’s as much about the process over the product, if not more.” □

Romanian writer-director Cristian Mungiu (4 Months, 3 Weeks and 2 Days) works that fraught family situation into a gently corrosive, psychologically astute comedy of contemporary manners.

In (very pungent) addition, he’s layered the domestic drama with a stingingly intricate case study of the ways in which the corruption and cronyism Romeo holds in contempt become deeply entangled with his hopes for Eliza’s liberation. The drama surrounding her exams gets an additional complicating twist when Eliza is assaulted while walking at night, and Romeo himself feels caught up in a series of minor harassments from persons unknown.

Mungiu’s signature style, a matter-of-fact realism that is compelling without ever needing to be ostentatious, is rewardingly present throughout Graduation.

The Lost City of Z Cinemark 14. Rated PG-13.

by Juan-Carlos Selznick

James Gray’s The Lost City of Z is based on David Grann’s book about real-life British explorer Percy Fawcett. But onscreen it plays a lot like a high-toned British adventure novel from a century ago.

From 1903 through the mid-1920s, Fawcett made several voyages deep into the Amazonian jungle. As a period adventure tale, the film sometimes evokes the fiction of Rudyard Kipling, H. Rider Haggard, et al.

But Gray’s vivid screen version also has a somewhat contemporary streak, via its perspectives of gender politics, social and racial prejudices, and the colonial entitlements of post-Victorian England.

Those voyages give the film its jungle adventure sequences, but Gray’s Lost City is also a kind of robust biopic, an ironic period piece and a low-key domestic melodrama. And the flair for daring and radical quests eventually rises, surprisingly and persuasively, to the poetic status of something almost mystical.

Charlie Hunnam is both heroic and humbly human in the Percy role. Sienna Miller has a feisty sparkle as his wife, Nina, a 19th century woman with 20th century aspirations. Robert Pattinson is especially good as Percy’s comrade in arms, Henry Costin. Bearded, brusque and reticent, Henry is both sidekick and alter ego, maybe even a Sancho Panza to Percy’s Don Quixote. □

Emma Watson plays a tech worker at a giant Internet corporation who finds out the company’s plans come at the expense of the privacy and personal freedoms of its customers. Adapted from Dave Eggers’ book of the same name. Cinemark 14, Feather River Cinemas and Paradise Cinema 7. Rated PG-13.

Beauty and the Beast

Disney’s wonderful 1991 animated musical adaptation of the classic French fairy tale has become the latest film on Disney’s Live Redo of a Beloved Animated Movie assembly line. This one is a big-budget effort starring Emma Watson as the iconic Belle and Ewan McGregor as a CGI candelabra. Is it an enjoyable distraction? Yes, even if it is completely unnecessary. Hermione makes for a strong Belle, and Watson’s performance is what makes the film worthwhile.

As the Prince/Beast, Dan Stevens gives a decent enough performance via motion capture, and the CGI creation blends in nicely with his totally human, organic cast member. The cast and crew labor to make musical numbers like “Gaston” and “Be Our Guest” pop with the creative energy of the animated version, but they don’t quite reach those heights. They are nicely rendered, for sure, but not on the masterpiece level of the original. Beauty and the Beast tastes good, yet is ultimately empty fluff.

Cinemark 14. Rated PG —B.G.

Somewhere along the way, the Furious franchise went completely bonkers and became less about cars racing around and more about dudes who think hair on the top of their heads is total bullshit and that upper arms should be the size of a bull’s torso. It also went off on some sort of international spy team tangent—something that actually worked to a hilarious degree in Furious 7. But with The Fate of the Furious, the franchise trajectory becomes ridiculous without much fun. It’s just dumb and plodding. The big thing here is that Dominic Toretto (Vin Diesel) has gone rogue and turned on his family, which has something to do with a cyber villain named Cipher (Charlize Theron) and her crazy dreadlock extensions. The biggest problem is that things are taken a little too seriously this time out. Heavy doses of drama are ladled into a mix that includes Diesel having his “Denzel Washington in Glory Tear” moment wherein a single solitary tear rolls down the cheek while the actor does his best to remain stone-faced.

Happy Garden

Tuck’s one-page cookbook about cooks who like cookbooks.

IEach cook had 1,000 to 3,000 of recently read a newspaper article

them.

I’ve never understood this sort of behavior. I am a fairly conventional American male, which means I own two pairs of shoes—one by brown, the Tuck Coop other black. I wear T-shirts every day in the summer, all stored in a ball, never folded, in the drawer. In the winter I rotate among three different sweatshirts. Some days I throw caution to the wind and wear the red one.

I approach cooking with the same wild daring and lust for experimentation. I’ve cooked for myself for the last 50 years, and in the beginning I would check out The Joy of Cooking now and then, but as time passed it seemed I was just making the same dish, with variations, over and over. I’m still making it. I’ll share it with you.

Think of it as a shelf of cookbooks reduced to one essential page.

I call it Tuck’s Slurry. It requires no skill, and it’s relatively cheap, relatively fast, tasty, healthy, open to endless variation, and (most important) long-lasting—that

is, it’s as good a week later as it is the day you make it. Single males cooking for themselves have to consider these things.

You need one item from each of the following four food groups: A protein: Chicken, turkey, beef, tofu if you’re vegetarian. If you’re thinking lobster or calamari, I’m not sure you’re in my demographic.

A starch: Rice and potato are the normal choices, but I won’t throw a fit if you go quinoa or couscous.

Veggies: Absolutely anything goes here. Onion and garlic are my sine qua nons, but the entire produce section is available to you.

Spices: You can actually think about this, but I never do. Instead, I simply save half the “flavor packet” from every package of instant ramen I eat (tell me you eat ramen). A ramen flavor packet is twice as much flavor as the ramen needs, so use half with the ramen and save half for a later slurry.

Don’t fuss over the “flavor” of the flavor packet—it just doesn’t matter. Be sure to use the flavor packet within 10 years of opening.

Instructions: Dice the protein into bite-size pieces. If you’re using potatoes, dice them into bite-size pieces and half-cook them

Chinese restaurant

in the microwave. If you’re using rice, cook the rice according to the instructions on the package. I like Trader Joe’s three-minute brown rice packets, because I never think about dinner far enough ahead of dinnertime to cook real rice. Chop up all veggies. Sauté (fry) the veggies in a large pan (we’re going to eat this for days, remember) in a little oil for a little while, so they can get a head start on the protein, unless you like your veggies al dente (chewy). Add the protein and cook the ensemble until done. Add the cooked starch of choice and the flavor packet.

Cook a little more, to let the spices come to life. Eat for the next six days.

With all the options, you’ve got several hundred different slurries here, enough to keep you eating for a lifetime. Want more? You can vary the liquidity: I usually add no water, but you can add some and get stew, or add a lot and get soup.

You can add other flavorings: pico de gallo salsa, soy sauce, Louisiana hot sauce. You can add a couple of eggs (probably not with rice). A little sour cream couldn’t hurt. A splash of wine at the beginning is a wonderful idea.

You’ll never have to open a cookbook again. □

The voice of Yoni Wolf is unmistakable; slightly nasal, simultaneously monotone and melodic, with a robotic precision. If his diction wasn’t so precise, it could almost be mistaken for an instrumental tone rather than a human voice. Wolf and company—under the name WHY?—were prominent carriers of prog-hop in the early 2000s, and they’re still some of the best at it. On Moh Lhean, the galloping beats, swept by dark, lush synths, interact like machinery with clear purpose and awe-inspiring movement. Even when horns come in on “Consequence of Nonaction,” they don’t feel like a layered afterthought, but more a distinct part of the sonic structure, used sparingly. The lyrical intent is similar—the simplicity of Wolf’s phrases creates vivid, straightforward scenes, like in “The Water” when he sings, “After the hospital we head to the shore/I fill up the raft, yeah/You cover your cast with plastic bags.” There’s no filler, no moment where the album gets lazy and lets ethereal synth sounds pass the time. It’s intentional, and it’s very, very good.

The Man Who Fell From Earth Anders Parker Recorded & Freed Anders Parker’s reputation as a versatile songwriter is safe with the release of his eighth studio album, The Man Who Fell From Earth. Continuing a pattern of unabashedly honest Americana, the first single, “I Don’t Do That Anymore,” is less a shedding of past regrets, and more a dissertation on a life spent rambling. “Skin on Skin” finds Parker at his most progressive, blending a trippy lap-steel against strings and a driving chord progression. The title track floats on a fever dream of cosmic folk, with Parker’s outermost lyrical fancies exposing themselves in concepts of spacey life/loss. On “As the Stars Fell Down on Me,” Parker sings: “You might be feeling bamboozled/I know you’re flying free/but you were there as the stars fell down on me.” It’s these lines that lend credence to the oft-cited “heartfelt” nature of Parker’s work, and provide a proper vessel through which to inject the album’s most diversifying element: the refined melodic interplay of a talented string trio.

MUSIC

Green End Jesse Hale Moore Self-released For all the light and bright pop out there to love, there’s also a wealth of deep and moody music that can be just as aurally satisfying.

Jesse Hale Moore has gone for the latter with his debut. On Green End, the Philadelphia artist (who also plays in the Philly-based project Nightlands) tackles how to grieve through different levels of loss—a breakup, family members passing. Some of the strongest tracks are the simplest—“Running With You” and “Green End” (the album’s bookends). They illuminate a core of lush piano chords and Moore’s rich tenor voice, harnessed by blooming synths that guide the songs into high-peaked choruses. The album’s only 45 minutes, but the back-to-back-to-back slow ballads seem to lengthen time into one long, emotive stretch. It can get a little intense, but tracks like “Ringing in Your Ears” bring a smoothsoul levity that acts as a breather before diving back into some murkier musical waters. To be clear, it’s worth the swim.

Missed I want to talk (“Oot.”) about Dave. He was my best friend during some (“Ooooot!”) of the most crucial years of my life, yet most of the (“Oot?!”) people I know today never met him, so I’m going to try and paint a picture (“Ooooooooooot!!!).

Actually, that’s a pretty good start. Above all else, Dave was hilarious. He had an offbeat, perfectly timed sense of humor fueled by in-jokes and his own invented lingo, with a personal dictionary of esoteric nicknames (McBelly, the beer-bellied neighbor who mowed his lawn shirtless) and left-field expressions designed to make his friends laugh—such as loudly repeating “Oot!” (the sound the horse from Animal House makes right before it keels over … you had to be there) while someone was trying to say something serious.

Dave McManus died this past Christmas. I don’t know how exactly. He’d been sick for a while, then he got really sick, then he was gone. The reason for my uncertainty is the fact that, before we reconnected on Facebook last summer, it had been 24 years since we’d spoken. Which is crazy. He was the best man at my wedding, and the following day I drove off for my honeymoon and he flew back to the East Coast, where he was living at the time. And that was it. As I remember, there were a few missed connections and the trading of phone messages (this was before the ubiquity of emails and way before the convenience of smartphones), and then the ties between us unraveled as we went in different directions to lead our separate lives.

On Monday, there will be a memorial service for Dave, and as I anticipate joining his family and some of my childhood friends in a cemetery near our hometown of Redding, I’m lost in memories.

We met in ninth grade at that weird long-gone institution known as Nova High—a school filled with nothing but freshmen—and quickly bonded over our love of music. After Nova, we went on to different schools, and would reconvene during the summers to do nothing but screw around: sleep in till noon; bathe by jumping in Dave’s pool; make the long loop around the blazing-hot cultural desert of Redding, from the old mall to the new mall and back to the pool; shoot hoops in the driveway; grab snacks at 7-Eleven; settle in to watch Night Flight all night; repeat the next day.

After high school, we went in different directions for a few months before locking paths again. Between the start of 1988 (when I was 18) and the middle of 1992, Dave and I were inseparable. We roomed together as we followed friends and our whims to different cities—L.A., Chico, Redding, Boston—and pretty much did nothing but buy music, talk about music and go witness live music: U2 on The Joshua Tree tour at the L.A. Coliseum; The Cramps in Boston; The Pixies in San Francisco; Fugazi in Olympia, Wash.; and every great local and touring act that played Chico’s tiny venues at the time—from The Downsiders and Vomit Launch to Camper Van Beethoven and The Flaming Lips.

We had a big crew, and Dave was always the wild heart burning at the center of things, so brave and magnetic, loathe to sit still and prone to unpredictable acts of public silliness in Dave and Jason in Chico, 1989 the name of cracking us up (wearing ridiculous thrift store hats; taking a bite from a half-eaten doughnut on the sidewalk; acting like a mannequin in department stores).

Our Facebook reconnection was limited to a few very brief interactions, and I’m bummed we didn’t get a chance to meet up again. I wish I could have told him I missed him, and that I’ve held him close to my heart all this time. I often look back fondly at those wild years when we navigated the transition from high school to the adult world together. Thankfully, we never acted very adult, always choosing fun over responsibility, doing nothing but hang out, explore and devour all music that came our way.

Of course, my feelings of regret are fairly insignificant compared to the pain his family is experiencing having lost Dave much too early, and I send my condolences to his lovely mother, Diane; his brother, Jason; and the rest of his loved ones. Rest in peace, Dave.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY For the week oF may 11, 2017 ARIES (March 21-April 19): The process

by which Zoo Jeans are manufactured is unusual. First, workers wrap and secure sheets of denim around car tires or big rubber balls, and take their raw creations to the Kamine Zoo in Hitachi City, Japan.

There the denim-swaddled objects are thrown into pits where tigers or lions live.

As the beasts roughhouse with their toys, they rip holes in the cloth. Later, the material is retrieved and used to sew the jeans.

Might this story prove inspirational for you in the coming weeks? I suspect it will.

Here’s one possibility: You could arrange for something wild to play a role in shaping an influence you will have an intimate connection with.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Kiss the

flame and it is yours,” teased the poet Thomas Lux. What do you think he was hinting at? It’s a metaphorical statement, of course. You wouldn’t want to literally thrust your lips and tongue into a fire. But according to my reading of the astrological omens, you might benefit from exploring its meanings. Where to begin? May I suggest you visualize making out with the steady burn at the top of a candle?

My sources tell me that doing so at this particular moment in your evolution will help kindle a new source of heat and light in your deep self—a fresh fount of glowing power that will burn sweet and strong like a miniature sun.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Your sym-

bol of power during the next three weeks is a key. Visualize it. What picture pops into your imagination? Is it a bejeweled golden key like what might be used to access an old treasure chest? Is it a rustic key for a garden gate or an oversized key for an ornate door? Is it a more modern thing that locks and unlocks car doors with radio waves? Whatever you choose, Gemini, I suggest you enshrine it in as an inspirational image in the back of your mind.

Just assume that it will subtly inspire and empower you to find the metaphorical “door” that leads to the next chapter of your life story.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You are

free to reveal yourself in your full glory.

For once in your life, you have cosmic clearance to ask for everything you want without apology. This is the later you have been saving yourself for. Here comes the reward for the hard work you’ve been doing that no one has completely appreciated. If the universe has any prohibitions or inhibitions to impose, I don’t know what they are. If old karma has been preventing the influx of special dispensations and helpful X-factors, I suspect that old karma has at least temporarily been neutralized.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “I don’t want to be

at the mercy of my emotions,” said Irish writer Oscar Wilde. “I want to use them, to enjoy them and to dominate them.” In my opinion, that may be one of the most radical vows ever formulated. Is it even possible for us human beings to gracefully manage our unruly flow of feelings? What you do in the coming weeks could provide evidence that the answer to that question might be yes. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you are now in a position to learn more about this high art than ever before.

by rob brezsny in wandering out to the frontiers of erotic play could rise quite high. You may be animated and experimental in your approach to intimate communion, whether it’s with another person or with yourself. Need any suggestions? Check out the “butterfliesin-flight” position or the “spinning wheel of roses” maneuver. Try the “hum-andchuckle kissing dare” or the “churning radiance while riding the rain cloud” move.

Or just invent your own variations and give them funny names that add to the adventure.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Right now

the word “simplicity” is irrelevant. You’ve got silky profundities to play with, slippery complications to relish, and lyrical labyrinths to wander around in. I hope you use these opportunities to tap into more of your subterranean powers. From what I can discern, your deep dark intelligence is ready to provide you with a host of fresh clues about who you really are and where you need to go. P.S. You can become better friends with the shadows without compromising your relationship to the light.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Will sex be

humdrum and predictable in the coming weeks? No! On the contrary. Your interest

You can bake your shoes in the oven at 350 degrees for 40 minutes, but that won’t turn them into loaves of bread. Know what I’m saying, Sagittarius? Just because a chicken has wings doesn’t mean it can fly over the rainbow. Catch my drift? You’ll never create a silk purse out of dental floss and dead leaves. That’s why I offer you the following advice: In the next two weeks, do your best to avoid paper tigers, red herrings, fool’s gold, fake news, Trojan horses, straw men, pink elephants, convincing pretenders and invisible bridges.

There’ll be a reward if you do: close encounters with shockingly beautiful honesty and authenticity that will be among your most useful blessings of 2017.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18):

According to my lyrical analysis of the astrological omens, here are examples of the kinds of experiences you might encounter in the next 21 days: (1) interludes that reawaken memories of the first time you fell in love; (2) people who act like helpful, moon-drunk angels just in the nick of time; (3) healing music or provocative art that stirs a secret part of you—a sweet spot you had barely been aware of; (4) an urge arising in your curious heart to speak the words, “I invite lost and exiled beauty back into my life.” player Eric DuBose was pulled over by Florida cops who spotted him driving his car erratically. They required him to submit to a few tests, hoping to determine whether he had consumed too much alcohol. “Can you recite the alphabet?” they asked. “I’m from the great state of Alabama,” DuBose replied, “and they have a different alphabet there.” I suggest, Pisces, that you try similar gambits whenever you find yourself in odd interludes or tricky transitions during the coming days—which I suspect will happen more than usual. Answer the questions you want to answer rather than the ones you’re asked, for example. Make jokes that change the subject. Use the powers of distraction and postponement. You’ll need extra slack, so seize it!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Of

all the signs of the zodiac, you Capricorns are the least likely to believe in mythical utopias like Camelot or El Dorado or Shambhala. You tend to be uber-skeptical about the existence of legendary vanished riches like the last Russian czar’s Fabergé eggs or King John’s crown jewels. And yet if wonderlands and treasures like those really do exist, I’m betting that some may soon be discovered by Capricorn explorers. Are there unaccounted-for masterpieces by Georgia O’Keeffe buried in a basement somewhere? Is the score of a lost Mozart symphony tucked away in a seedy antique store? I predict that your tribe will specialize in unearthing forgotten valuables, homing in on secret miracles and locating missing mother lodes.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21):

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Africa’s high- PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Ex-baseball est mountain is Mount Kilimanjaro. Though it’s near the equator, its peak is covered year-round with glaciers. In 2001, scientists predicted that global warming would melt them all by 2015. But that hasn’t happened. The ice cap is still receding slowly.

It could endure for a while, even though it will eventually disappear. Let’s borrow this scenario as a metaphor for your use, Virgo. First, consider the possibility that a certain thaw in your personal sphere isn’t unfolding as quickly as you anticipated.

Second, ruminate on the likelihood that it will, however, ultimately come to pass.

Third, adjust your plans accordingly.

PETITION NOTICE OF PETITION TO ADMINISTER ESTATE LARRY D. RICHTER AKA LARRY RICHTER, AKA LARRY DONALD RICHTER To all heirs and beneficiaries, creditors, contingent creditors, and persons who may otherwise be interested in the will or estate, or both, of: LARRY D. RICHTER AKA LARRY RITCHER, AKA LARRY DONALD RICHTER Petition for Probate has been filed by: CATHRYN L. RICHTER in the Superior Court of California, County of Butte.

The Petition for Probate requests that: CATHRYN L. RICHTER be appointed as personal representative to administer the estate of the decedent.

The petition requests the decendent’s will and codicils, if any, be admitted to probate.

The will and any codicils are

➡

available for examination in the file kept by the court.

The petition requests authority to administer 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 as 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 in this court as follows: Date: May 30, 2017 Time: 9:00 a.m.

Dept: C-18 Address of the court: Superior Court of California County of Butte 1775 Concord Ave. Chico, CA 95926.

IF YOU OBJECT to the granting of the petition, you should appear at the hearing and state your objections 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 contingent creditor of the decedent, 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 California 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 an attorney knowledgeable in California law.

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

A Request for Special Notice form is available from the court clerk.
