in box What we’re dealing with is rampant xenophobia Growing up in the home of a white patriarchal male, I knew the feeling of being discriminated against from when I was a small child in the early 1950s, simply because I was “different” from the man who had all the power in the house.

I also had that lesson repeated in 5th grade in 1958, when I did something that challenged almost all the “mascu-line” white boys in my class, by simply doing something “different.”

Blacks are discriminated against in this culture NOT because they’re “BLACK,” but because they are “different” than the (mostly) white patriarchal males in power. Their difference is that they’re black, not white patriarchal males.

In women’s cases, the difference is they’re women, not white patriarchal males. With LGBTQ,

Muslims, Latinos, immigrants, it’s the same, and so on...

Racism, sexism, homophobia, (all the fear-based -isms,) ALL are forms of xenophobia. That is, the fear of anything that is “alien” or “different from one’s norm. What we are dealing with is rampant xenophobia, which is caused by the (mostly) white patriarchal male system controlling the US. (In other countries, the patriarchal males are merely different colors.)

If all those who are “different” from the patriarchal males holding “power” understood this, we all might find it a lot easier to identify and empathize with those who also happen to be “different.” Perhaps this awareness could create the base of people needed to make real change in the world.

Honor the Earth requested that the MPCA consider the toxic impacts of an oil spill on wild rice, because wild rice is particularly sensitive to the toxic sulfate and sulfite compounds in heavy Canadian crude oil.

Gov. Tim Walz visited the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial in Duluth Monday morning – the 100th anniversary of the mob lynching of the three men – accompanied by Carl Crawford, Duluth’s human rights officer (right).

Governor visits lynching memorial Gov. Tim Walz traveled to Duluth June 15 to visit the Clayton-JacksonMcGhie memorial on the 100th anniversary of their deaths. On June 15, 1920, Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson, and Isaac McGhie were wrongfully accused of a crime, violently removed from the Duluth city jail by an estimated mob of 10,000, and brutally hanged from a lamp post on a city street.

The Governor formally recognized their deaths with a proclamation to commemorate the tragic and often untold chapter in our state’s history.

On Friday, the Governor issued the state’s first posthumous pardon to Max Mason, who was wrongfully convicted and used as a scapegoat for the lynching.

The Governor also met with com-

munity leaders in Duluth, including with Mayor Emily Larson and State Representative Liz Olson to discuss their priorities for police reform and accountability during Minnesota’s special legislative session.

“We can never forget this shameful, tragic event in Minnesota’s history,” the Governor posted in his Twitter account, Later, the governor talked to reporters and urged Minnesotans to learn the history behind the memorial, saying many don’t know it. Walz said it’s important that Minnesotans and lawmakers learn from the deaths as well as the death of George Floyd and move forward to create change. With a special session ongoing, Walz urged action on several pieces of legislation to help create that change.

Avocados and deforestation Dear EarthTalk: Is it true that my avocado habit is bad for the environment and my carbon footprint?

J. Pilsen, Olathe, KS Compared to other fruits and vegetables that are grown closer to home, eating avocados – most of which are flown in from Central America – can be a drag on your carbon footprint.

Furthermore, they require a lot of water, fertilizers and pesticides to grow, further by complicating this seemingly “green” superfood.

Avocado’s environmental impacts come from the “energy, water, fertilizer and pesticides required to grow them, the resources used for packaging materials and the energy used in processing, transporting and keeping them cool to preserve their freshness,” Tom Cumberlege of Carbon Trust tells Vice.com, also

Despite that avocados can now be grown around the world, the majority of them (upwards of two metric tons

annually) come from Mexico.

picked before it’s ripe and shipped in temperature-controlled storage, which is energy intensive.”

Avocados also require an astonishing amount of water to grow, some 320 liters per fruit. “The UK’s imports of avocados contain more than 25 million cubic meters annually of virtual water – equivalent to 10,000 Olympic-sized swimming pools,” reports Eldridge.

“With global temperatures rising and water becoming scarce, this has serious impacts on local communities who do not have access to drinking water.”

Furthermore, the global popularity of avocados in recent years has led to “monoculture” farms that grow only one crop over and over, degrading soil quickly and requiring increasingly more chemical fertilizers and pesticides.

Surging demand has also led to rampant deforestation, especially in areas like Mexico’s mountainous Michoacán.

A researcher from Mexico’s National Institute for Forestry found that avocado production there tripled there from 2001-2010 – causing the loss of

Compared to meat, avocados are still a much better deal for the environment – and much less of a drag on your carbon footprint.

Indeed, the Evening Standard reports that eating a kilo of lamb generates some 46 times the carbon emissions as the average pack of avocados.

Enjoying a piece of farmed salmon will also increase your carbon footprint more than having some guacamole or avocado toast every now and again.

As a consumer, the best thing you can do with an avocado is to “make sure that it doesn’t go to waste,” said Cumberlege. “… avocados will not last days in the fridge after they have been prepared, so [they] should be enjoyed sooner rather than later.”

Special session gives lawmakers second shot at eliminating state’s ‘ban the box’ In recent years, even as Minnesota was considered a pioneer in ending the practice of asking job seekers about their criminal histories, it somehow was still posing the question to applicants for one class of job: appointments to state boards and commissions.

In 2009, Minnesota became the second state in the nation to prohibit public employers from including by a criminal history question on initial application forms. In 2013, private employers were added to the law, a provision enacted with bipartisan support.

But neither bill negated a 2004 provision that makes one’s criminal history one of the first pieces of information solicited for appointments to state boards and commissions. That means that an applicant for a job processing income taxes in Minnesota doesn’t have to initially declare a

systemic … these are not peripheral issues, they’re really important. I would certainly encourage us doing that.”

State Sen. Bobby Joe Champion, the Minneapolis DFLer who was a lead sponsor of the bill that passed in 2009, said he continues to work on the issue.

felony conviction – but an applicant to be on the Board of Cosmetology does.

But earlier this year, the governor, the secretary of state, two state government commissioners and the prime sponsor of past so-called “ban the box” bills pledged to complete the effort. But no bill was introduced and no amendment was offered during the 2020 regular session of the Minnesota Legislature.

Now, as the Legislature begins a special session with equity and criminal justice reform at center stage following the homicide of George Floyd, most say the time has come, again, to build consistency in state law where ban the box is concerned.

“For many of us, many were surprised when that was brought up last year that that was the case. Banning the box is important,” Walz said. “It’s

An ‘easy win’ for special session?

While many of the state’s 234 boards and commissions are advisory or technical, the criminal background question also shows up on the application for boards that play significant roles in state government: the Public Utilities Commission, the Sentencing Guidelines Commission, the Police Officer Standards and Training Board and the Metropolitan Council.

The ban-the-box provision is meant to keep people with criminal records from being eliminated in the first step of a job application process, though it doesn’t prevent questions about a person’s background from being asked in later stages of a hiring process. Minnesota’s version of the law also has exemptions for positions that legally require some form of a background check, including jobs at the Department of Corrections.

Thirty-five states now have some form of ban-the-box legislation. Viewed as a criminal justice reform measure, it has been backed by powerful groups across the political spectrum, including the American Civil Liberties Union and the conservative billionaires Charles Koch and his brother, the late David Koch.

Sen. Bobby Joe Champion, the Minneapolis DFLer who was a lead sponsor of the bill that passed in 2009, said he continues to work at the Legislature on eliminating Minnesota’s loophole.

“That’s one of those things we thought was fixed,” he said. “It is something that we are committed to changing … because we really do think it is important for individuals to be judged on their skills and qualifications and not on their past. We don’t want anything that would hamper that opportunity. We will continue to work on that.”

Secretary of State Steve Simon said he has talked with Champion and expects bill language to be offered soon.

“This would seem like a really good time, when attention is being focused on these issues,” Simon said.

“It shouldn’t be controversial, but for some reason some people think it should be.

Corrections Commissioner Paul Schnell “This seems like an easy win for a special session like this,” Simon continued. “In the grand scheme of things, compared with restructuring and reimagining public safety, it’s a relatively small gesture but one that would matter to a lot of people who want to serve in some capacity.”

Champion said that given the short session, he might look for another bill to amend to include the measure.

Coronavirus ‘sucked the air out of the room’ Simon’s office processes applications for appointments to boards and commissions, though it is mostly a ministerial function. The decisions are made by others, particularly the governor. Still, the requirement is in the section of state law governing Simon’s office and has been there since 2004, when it was added via a secretary of state omnibus bill without any debate on the provision.

While the regular session of the Legislature was disrupted in mid-March by the coronavirus epidemic, more than 1,500 House bills and 1,400 Senate bills were filed between Feb. 11 and March 12. None related to ban the box.

As of Monday, no bill has been filed in the special session, either. There was no request from Gov. Tim Walz or Secretary of State Simon to legislate the matter, though both said they thought the question could discourage good applicants. Nor was there a request from Corrections Commissioner Paul Schnell or Human Rights Commissioner Rebecca Lucero, though both said it could deny

second chances for former felons and was inequitable.

Schnell is also Walz’s lead on criminal justice reform. In January he described the fact that the question was still being asked on boards and commission applications as “bizarre.”

In late May, Schnell said the coronavirus pandemic distracted the administration from the issue.

“There’s no doubt we have work to do and the pandemic I think sucked a lot of air out of the room and drew a lot of attention, and for good reason,” Schnell said. “The ban the box, especially around boards and commissions, are things we still want to look at. I think there are places in our organization where we want to make sure people, regardless of their previous history, can fully access and get on to any of the boards that we operate.”

But Schnell said he did think it would not be “an easy lift” in the GOP Senate.

“I wouldn’t go so far as to say there wasn’t a lot of work to be done legislatively, and a lot of politicking and a lot of educating and those sorts of things,” Schnell said. “Do I believe it would have been an easy lift? No. But, I think COVID certainly created a challenge I don’t think any of us would have anticipated.”

Simon said the provision was to be included in a bill to clean up outdated provisions in the code governing his office. But “then COVID hit and all bets were off,” he said. “It ended up on the cutting room floor.”

Prior to the beginning of the 2020 session, in February, Senate Majority Leader Paul Gazelka said he was willing to look at the issue. But the East Gull Lake Republican said there are some experts who think the inability to ask the question leads some employers to be less likely to consider young black men and young Hispanic men. Therefore, Gazelka said, not allowing the questions to be asked could have unintended and even opposite impacts.

That would also be an argument for repealing ban the box for all applications, something no one is proposing. At the same pre-session forum, House Speaker Melissa Hortman said: “If it’s a loophole, we need to get rid of it.”

Walk/don’t walk Dear Readers: Get outside and take a walk. It’s a beautiful time of year! But, there are safety laws and rules to follow, especially when crossing the road in traffic.

Even though drivers are required to stop for pedestrians in a painted crosswalk, by you should yield to drivers when crossing outside of the crosswalk.

WALK and DON’T WALK signage should always be observed. If you’re walking in the roadway when the DON’T WALK sign comes on, continue to cross the street in a safe manner. The traffic must wait for you.

If you are listening to music with ear buds, keep the volume low enough so you can hear the street sounds, such as

horns and sirens. Don’t be distracted by texting while walking. – Heloise

The Duluthian who told the truth

In 1979, Michael Fedo uncovered the long-forgotten story of the 1920 lynching The somber public events that had been scheduled to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the lynching of three young black circus workers have been put on hold for the pandemic, which is unfortunate because, 100 years later, and we’re still randomly executing blacks.

The tragic irony of the murder on May 25 of George Floyd by Minneapolis police officers so close to the 100th anniversary of the June 15, 1920, lynchings of Elias Clayton, Elmer Jackson and Isaac McGhie would have put Duluth on high alert had the various gatherings and parade been allowed. Now most of the righteous indignation will be expressed virtually, although an event by was held at the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial June 8.

Until 1979, Duluthians held their heads high knowing they lived in a clean and upright city. We could feel morally superior to the uncouth, pointy-hatted redneck Southerners because we here in Duluth would never form a mob and lynch three innocent men.

It was 1979 when that was all changed by Duluth native Michael Fedo, who punched Duluthians collectively in the face with the release of his book They Was Just Niggers, the true tale of a 19-year-old West Duluth woman and her 18-year-old male companion who attended John Robinson’s Circus – in Duluth for one night only – June 14, 1920.

The couple claimed they had been held at gunpoint by a group of black male circus workers, who sexually assaulted the woman. The young man’s father reported the incident to the police the next morning. The police stopped the circus from leaving for its next destination and rousted the black roustabouts, bringing 10 to jail.

The story made the front page of the Duluth Herald on the 15th – WEST DULUTH GIRL VICTIM OF SIX NEGROES was the boldfaced headline in that day’s newspaper – and that night a mob estimated in the

“At some point along the way, I said, jeez, nobody knows about this. I also learned it wasn’t in official state history books. So I thought nuts to the novel.

I‘ll just document this story.”

Michael Fedo thousands stormed the police station on Superior Street, grabbed Clayton, Jackson and McGhie from their cells, beat them, and lynched them from a light pole a block up the street from the police station.

The next day’s Herald told the story of the mob murder of the three men (banner headline: THREE NEGROES LYNCHED IN DULUTH). The front page was dominated with the story and sidebars such as Police Forbidden to Use Their Firearms to Withhold Looters, Troops Sent to Duluth by the Governor, and Negroes Attempted Assault While Show Was at South Bend. There was also, front and center, a photo of the wrecked police station on Superior Street and another photo of the light pole at the corner of Second Avenue East and First Street where the men were hanged, with the

The original 1979 edition of Fedo’s book on the left and the new edition on the right. headline Impromptu Gallows Where Three Negroes’ Lives Are Choked Out. Inside were more stories, such as an article headlined Kiwanis Club and Duluth Citizens Deplore Lynchings.

The Kiwanis were the first local body to go on record with a resolution condemning the mob action and the crime that led to it (they should have said “alleged” crime because the story the boy and girl told about the attack by the circus workers was already beginning to unravel, and no one had been convicted of any crime).

The Herald’s editorial writer unleashed on the brutish mob in a piece titled The Law or the Mob? He wrote of the mob “which last night defied the law, wrecked the police station, overcame – all too easily,it would seem – the entire police force and lynched three men, is simply the brute burst forth, stripped of all its thin veneer.

“It is a shallow view, which cannot be rebuked too vigorously, that the villiany of the crime [the alleged rape] justifies the crime of the mob. It does not justify it, and in a nation, a state and a community where the law rules and will take its course and do its duty, NOTHING justifies the crime of the mob.

“For the chief victim of last night’s tragedy was the Law, and not those miserable, trembling, perhaps guilty wretches whose lives the mob took.

Great as their crime was IF they were guilty, and there are no individual crimes worse, the crime of the mob was vastly greater.”

That’s the story Fedo told in his provacatively titled book, and it was like a punch in the face to many Duluthians who had never heard of the incident, never saw the postcards that were distributed of the mob surrounding the three lynched men, and were by then almost six decades removed from the atrocity of their forebearers.

He didn’t mean to ruin Duluth’s reputation. He just thought it was a story that needed to be told.

Fedo can’t recall what triggered her doing so, but he remembers that when he was 9 or 10, his mother mentioned the lynching. And that was it. Not another reference to it from anyone as he was growing up.

“But it must have stuck in my brain,” he said. “I suppose it was 1973 and I thought I wanted to try and write a novel, and I wanted to place it in northern Minnesota post-World War I. I think my notion was that one of

Now he needed to know more about the incident so he could place a character in the action.

“I began to look for the book I assumed had been written about this decades earlier,” Fedo said. “I very quickly learned that not only was there no book, but many librarians had never heard of this event at all.”

In his search for more information, he talked to a man at the St. Louis County Historical Society who said they once had a file on the subject, but a previous director had gotten rid of it because she didn’t think it worthwhile research material for students.

“At some point along the way, I said, jeez, nobody knows about this. I also learned it wasn’t in official state history books. So I thought nuts to the novel.

I‘ll just document this story.”

And, thankfully, he did, because, think about it, if it had been officially forgotten and no one had dug up the story, would there be a Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial today?

While today Fedo has an impressive professional writing resume, he admits that when he started digging into

DuluthReader.com

research for the book, he didn’t really have all the moves down. His only other journalism gig had been the fall after his high school graduation when he covered high school football for the Superior Evening Telegram.

“I did what I could, being a neophyte at the time,” Fedo said about his early research into the lynchings.

It wasn’t until about four years after the book came out that Fedo found his lack of experience as an investigative reporter caused some setbacks for him, such as when the St. Louis County Clerk of the time told him that all the court records of the various trials held in relation to the alleged rape and the lynching had been order destroyed.

“I didn’t have any journalism background and didn’t know that wasn’t done,” he said. “I didn’t know that I had been stonewalled until about four years later when a kid from Duluth East wrote to me.”

The high school student wrote Fedo to say that his information in the book that the court records had been destroyed was not true because he had gotten the records from the clerk of the court.

“A new regime there let the kid have them,” Fedo said. “The material that I did find, I found in the archives of the state historical society in St. Paul, and that was very useful. The court transcripts that I found only were of the cases that had been appealed to the state Supreme Court. So it was in their

files where the handful of cases that were brought before the state Supreme Court. They also had microfilm of newspapers that had accounts of what happened.”

Fedo said he spent close to two years on the research and writing of the book, and then another two years trying to get it published.

“I didn’t have much of a professional resume at that point,” he said. “I think I got rejected by a number of agents and began to submit to publishers on my own. It was pre-internet days. You typed up your manuscript, put it in a box with return postage. I submitted to more than 30 publishers. I got mostly form rejections. I got three comments from editors that were beyond the form rejections, and they all were kind of surprising, even given that era, we’re talking the mid to late 1970s. The most striking of the comments that an editor wrote – I can imagine that he or she might have thought this but to have written it was a surprise to me – ‘We don’t think we can successfully publish this book because we don’t believe black people read books.’ Another one said, ‘We don’t want to be responsible for causing riots.’ Another one was, ‘Civil rights-type books are passe now.’

This was about six months before Roots became a runaway bestseller.”

Finally, a small indie publisher in Orange County, California – Brasch & Brasch – wanted to publish Fedo’s book with the title They Was Just Niggers, after a comment made by a bystander

to a reporter after martial law was declared in Duluth after the mob lynching.

“I think I was OK with that. At the time it didn’t occur to me that this was not a good title,” Fedo said.

It was a powerful title in the context, but it created a major problem for the book.

“The problem with that title was, since that book was never a big deal because this publisher had no advertising budget [meaning it wasn’t given a prominent push nor prominently displayed], people didn’t want to ask for the book. They Was Just Nigger’s, they didn’t want to say that.”

The book was reissued in 2000 by the Minnesota Historical Society with a new title, The Lynching in Duluth.

“After the new edition came out, black folks were upset that the title was changed because they thought it was appropriate,” Fedo said. “The new title is very prosaic, but people will at least ask for it. Under the new title, it has sold many more copies than the original.”

When an organization was formed in Duluth to create a memorial to the three lynched men, Fedo was naturally asked to join.

“Which I did,” he said. “I got to see the bronze castings down in New Ulm when they were being done. I don’t make it back for the memorial event every year, but I’ve been back several times for it. I would have been this year as well, but COVID canceled everything.”

The Lynching in Duluth was the first of 10 books Fedo has written, along with innumberable fiction and nonfiction stories for newspapers and magazines around the country.

“I have another book coming out in September which is hugely different,” he said. “It’s a collection of humor and satire short fiction. There are 26 stories in the collection and they’ve all been previously published in consumer magazines or literary publications. So I’m still diddling with that.”

His most recent book, the 2018 release Don’t Quit Your Day Job: The Adventures of a Midlist Author, tells the story of his writing life. Before that he wrote Zenith City: Stories From Duluth, an essay collection about growing up in Duluth, including his connection to the lynching story and the book that he is best known for.

“I guess if that book is my legacy, so be it,” Fedo said. “I’m grateful that there probably will be a legacy and the book will continue long after I’m gone.”

A clicking stop light Are we close to hearing the last clicking of a stoplight?

Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan, a Pulitzer Prize-winning New Yorker, has been creating provocative and entertaining columns for many years. She also was a speechwriter for President Ronald Reagan.

I call her a true conservative, not a fake one, because she actually believes everyone has “place” in a society. In May she had a fascinating experience. by She has been walking the streets of New York for more than half a century, but because of the shelter-in-place rules during COVID-19, she noted, for the first time in her New York life, she had heard the clicking of a changing stoplight as she waited to cross a street.

That’s what a world-wide pandemic can do. It can stop a lot of traffic and other noises. Perhaps the next pandemic will allow the changing of lights to be heard around the world.

Edgar Allan Poe published “The Mask of the Red Death: A Fantasy” in 1842. It’s a hair-curler describing a plague that attacks Prince Prospero’s

country with these symptoms: victims are overcome by sharp pains, dizziness and profuse bleeding from all the pores of the body. Everybody dies within a half-hour.

Prince Prospero takes 1,000 of his rich nobles to an abbey to save their lives and his own (reminds me of the rich running to their yachts in 2020).

But in the end a phantom creature with a red mask finds the abbey and “bleeds” everybody to death.

The short story’s last line: “And Darkness and Decay and the Red Death held illimitable dominion over all.”

Hey, the next pandemic could be like the Red Death – and we won’t have Donald the Lyin’ King around to save us.

THE GADFLY

ED RAYMOND

It’s too bad Gorbachev’s not eligible to be U.S. president The former president of the Soviet Union makes more sense about our future than any of our politicians in Congress or the Trump administration – or Biden. At 89 years he has seen a lot of life. Born of very poor peasant parents during the early stages of Joseph Stalin’s Russia, he gradually rose to be the leader of the

Soviet Union until it collapsed in 1991.

He made several nuclear treaties with Ronald Reagan to reduce the possibilities of a planet-destroying nuclear war. They both decided that a nuclear war cannot be won and should never be fought.

(Think about what nutcase Trump has said about nuclear war.)

In his one-page article “When This is Over, The World Must Gather” in the May issue of Time, Gorbachev promotes several ideas about the future.

1. The immediate challenge is to defeat COVID-19, but “we need to start thinking about life after it retreats.”

2. We have several treaties that reduced the number of nuclear weapons by 85%, but “the threat is still there.”

We must keep asserting that nuclear weapons are the common enemy of everyone on the planet.

3. The pandemic today is hitting the poor particularly hard and is creating more economic inequality than ever.

Somehow we have to develop strategies and goals that will benefit all mankind.

4. National security is now based strictly on military terms and the development of more powerful weapons.

With our history we should realize by now that weapon races will not solve our global problems. War is a sign of defeat and of diplomacy and politics.

5. Our most important goal must be global human security, not national security. We must provide food, water, universal health care, and a clean environment for everybody.

The countries of the world should get together and cut military spending by 10 to 15%. Gorbachev writes: “I am calling on world leaders to convene an emergency special session of the U.N. General Assembly as soon as the situation is stabilized. It should be about nothing less than revising the entire global agenda.” This son of peasants, with all of his experiences participating in global affairs, has come up with a world vision we can all follow. Will Bolsonaro, Duterte, Erdogan, Putin, Kim Jong-un and Trump pay any attention to him? I don’t think so.

We have had cults wearing masks of one kind or other I joined the Marine Corps in 1951 while going to college, contracting to go on active duty after graduation as an officer if I passed Officers Candidate School. I spent two summers at Parris Island, South Carolina, during college undergoing boot camp at that snake-

18 June 18, 2020 DuluthReader.com

infested training base. I was a strong farm kid, so I thought Marine boot camp was a vacation. After graduation Corky and I married and we were off to Washington, D.C., so I could attend OCS at Quantico, Virginia.

We have had a number of religious and political cults in our 240-year history. The Ku Klux Klan was a powerful cult for about 100 years, wearing complete face-covering pointed “hoodies” and white sheets to hide their identity. Since then the KKK has morphed to a number of white supremacist groups such as the Skinheads and the various “white power” groups that met at Charlottesville. These are basically political cults.

When Corky and I lived in D.C. in 1954-55 Republican Senator Joe McCarthy of Wisconsin dominated the news by charging the government and the military had been infiltrated with hundreds of Communists in important positions.

Joe was a former Marine who had been an intelligence officer for a dive bomber squadron during World War II. He had embellished his record to “heroic” standards to get elected and had become known as “Tail-Gunner Joe” by his many critics.

As a fellow Marine I watched Joe waving his lists of 205 Commies in the State Department and other departments during the Army-McCarthy hearings led by Joe with that whining, accusative voice. Supposedly there were hundreds of Communists under Washington beds – with some of them in bed with the Democrats doing all kinds of nasty things.

At one time McCarthy had the support of one-half of the American people.

Finally Joe was destroyed by a question

by Army lawyer Joseph Welch when he was finally asked: “Have you no sense of decency, sir?”

The lists were later found to be blank. McCarthy died at Walter Reed Hospital at age 48 of alcoholism – and some say of syphilis. But the spirit of McCarthyism and Joe’s cult is still alive and well today.

We have another pandemic in America: It’s called Mask Madness It was bound to happen. A political pandemic on top of a virus pandemic.

With our masks on, Corky and I went grocery shopping last week and saw about half the young people shopping

“Our most important goal must be global human security, not national security.”

Mikhail Gorbachev

(at our age, everybody looks young) were not wearing masks. All the workers wore masks.

The Fargo metro area had been described as a hot spot for COVID-19 – and people were walking in narrow crowded aisles without masks! I was so angry and perplexed I thought of thanking them for improving the future gene pool for our grandchildren.

Why are they trying to kill themselves and other people? Do they really believe their Great Leader, the “Chosen One? Have they not read of young people who have taken months to recover from this vicious virus? Are they charter members of the Trumpocalypse cult? We evidently are in the middle of Mask Madness.

Daniel Horowitz of the Conservative Voice writes: “We destroyed our entire country and the Constitution for a very narrow and specific problem.”

Yep, what the hell, the virus killed only a 100,000 old farts and a few young blacks and Latinos. Who gives a damn? The maskless are the same zombies who believe the Second Amendment is worth 40,000 kills and 100,000 wounded each year.

A zombie in Colorado shot a cook when told he couldn’t enter a Waffle House without wearing a mask. A Mississippi church was burned down when the pastor kept insisting on having services during a state stay-athome order because of a big spike in the virus. I thought Jesus encouraged prayer at home—but it’s hard to pass the collection plate door-to-door. The arsonist left graffiti that read: “Bet you stay home now you hypokrits.” With a low IQ, spelling is a problem.

DuluthReader.com

We have had unmasked zombies lick food items in Walmarts, cough on produce in Costco, an unmasked zombie vice-president touring the deadly Mayo Clinic, and the president of the zombies, His Tweetness, refusing to wear a mask in a Michigan ventilator plant because a mask implies weakness. I guess cowardly bone spurs do affect the brain.

An unmasked protester shouts: “Give me liberty or give me death!” OK, what a choice. But what about your grandmother?

Another unmasked zombie says: “I’m not wearing a mask because I woke up in a free country.”

Whatever has happened to the prefrontal cortex? It’s very hard to fix stupid. Carrying an AR-15 in a crowded state capitol dressed for combat – and without a mask?

Kentucky zombies were caught hanging the effigy of their Democratic governor. A Kentucky convenience store posted this sign on the door: “No face masks allowed in store. Lower your mask or go somewhere else. Stop listening to Governor Beshear. He’s a dumbass.”

We are now living in a third-world failing state inspired by Donald The Lyin’ King’s McCarthyism.

regulate, or steer the markets will make the economy less efficient. If a government is driven by empathy, “do-gooderism,” sympathy and altruism, growth and progress will be inhibited. If free markets are restrained, individual freedoms are reduced.

(2) Liberals believe that free markets eventually produce negative side effects such as poverty, lousy health care, environmental degradation, economic inequality and military-industrialgovernment control of an entire country. Liberals value educational opportunities, support for the vulnerable, the handicapped, public and private health availability, and clean and livable environments.

So, what is a fellow human worth?

Let’s leave out cultural positions such as religion, abortion, homosexuality and race. Those issues make a complicated question more so.

Conservatives believe that loss of life at any age must be endured by a society for the greater economic good.

We have to keep the Golden Goose alive even if humans die protecting it.

In Donald The Lyin’ King’s world the weak, sick, elderly, and the disabled and handicapped should be gracious

enough to die because they have outlived their usefulness.

Liberals, on the other hand, desire to minimize the loss of human life even if such actions create economic carnage.

Even the elderly are important. So we have a major problem. Republicans say we should sacrifice people for dollars, and Democrats say we should sacrifice dollars for people.

In Aldous Huxley’s Brave New World, the five classes of humans are so organized that at death all bodies are cremated and then dumped in road construction to supplement concrete.

We seem to be somewhere in that arc of history now.

The ultimate question: What is a fellow human worth?

A pandemic always centers around the ultimate question. There are two major factions: (1) Conservatives believe that free, unregulated markets are the most efficient and profitable ways for distributing goods, services and wealth. Any attempts to intervene, June 18, 2020 19

Police reform is possible “We must, as citizens, address headon the issue of police brutality and sustained injustices against the African American community. We must, as citizens, support and defend the right – indeed, the solemn obligation – to peacefully assemble and to be heard.

These are not mutually exclusive pursuits.” Adm. Micheal Mullen, former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff “We do not need to militarize our response to protests. We need to unite around a common purpose. And it starts by guaranteeing that all of us are equal before the law.” General James Mattis, former Secretary of State.

In last week’s online Reader I said there is no excuse for excessive use of force by police. Most of us know this and know that it must change. Given the failure of past efforts at police reform it would be easy to think this is just another hopeless cause. But there are signs of hope this time around.

This time maybe, if people keep up the pressure, real reform may be possible.

I see hope for change coming from all over the country and from some unusual sources.

The number and duration of protests is encouraging. Protests have occurred in many places, including rural areas and cities of all sizes.

Peaceful protests of more than 1,000 marchers have occurred across Wisconsin and multiple places in Minnesota, including Duluth. These have been attended by people of all races and have included elected officials.

This broad participation is particularly dramatic given the pandemic fears. People are angry and are demanding change.

It is encouraging and very unusual to have members of the establishment such as General James Mattis and Admiral Michael Mullen speaking out about police violence and the right – “indeed, the solemn obligation” – to protest. To date four former chairmen of the Joint Chiefs of Staff have condemned Trump for his statement about using the regular military to “dominate” city streets and shut down protests.

It is also encouraging that some police departments are starting to change. Some police departments are no longer sweeping the abuses under the rug. Officers who use excessive force are being disciplined, fired, and prosecuted.

For change to happen we must change our militarized, warrior culture. We need trust, fairness, justice and mutual respect between police departments and the communities they serve. That requires ending the excessive use of force.

Diabetes runs in many of our families, mine included. That factor alone raises the risk for developing Type 2 diabetes. Other risk factors include if you have prediabetes, are overweight, are 45 years or older or have an immediate relative with Type 2 diabetes.

If you are physically active less than

three times a week, have ever had gestational diabetes (diabetes during pregnancy) or have given birth to a baby who weighed more than 9 pounds, you are also at an increased risk. Those who are African American, Hispanic/Latino American, American Indian or Alaska Native are also at a higher risk.

The good news? You can prevent or delay Type 2 diabetes with simple, proven lifestyle changes, such as losing weight if you’re overweight, eating

healthier and regular physical activity.

A simple switch to more whole grains can contribute to a healthier diet. A new analysis of more than 200,000 people found that eating highquality carbohydrates, such as whole grains, is associated with a lower risk for Type 2 diabetes. The findings were presented at the Nutrition 2020 Live Online, a virtual conference hosted by the American Society for Nutrition.

The healthiest carbohydrates come from fruits, vegetables, beans, legumes

and whole grains. Whole grains contain three components: the fiberrich outer bran, the nutrient-rich central germ and the starchy middle layer (endosperm).

Carbohydrates have long been thought to be the enemy of Type 2 diabetes. But the study found the type of carbohydrate matters.

“High intake of carbohydrates has been suggested to be associated with a higher risk of type 2 diabetes,” wrote research team leader Kim Braun from

It pours a dark amber with a tawny and white head. It looks like it could be an English brown ale.

The malt/hop balance is brilliant, with a pleasant, lingering hop finish that sort of acts as a palate cleanser between sips.

Utepils doesn’t mention the grain bill on its website, but I wonder if they use a touch of rye. There is a slight spiciness in the Alt 1848 malt that I associate with rye.

While that is not a traditional component of an alt grain bill, I would applaud them for using rye, if that is in fact what I am tasting.

Whatever the grain bill, it is a lipsmacking loveliness that, as I already mentioned, ends with a snap of its 50 IBU hoppiness.

And perhaps that spiciness I’m tasting is coming from the hops, which also are not named on the Utepils website. Could they have used the notably spicy Saaz hops, a variety most closely associated with Czech pilsner?

More likely they used a German hop variety known as Spalt, an aroma hop known for its slightly spicy character.

Yes, I’m going with that rather than rye in the grain bill.

The amazing V. Sattui American and foreign wine competitions can be, and often are, unpredictable. It’s not unusual for an unknown to show up and claim a top award. But some things by never change.

One of those would be the inevitability of V. Sattui Winery, one of the Napa Valley’s finest. Sattui has long been a giant on the wine competition circuit, collecting major awards and accolades with relative ease.

The winery, situated on Highway 29 in the heart of the Napa Valley, is a must-stop for serious wine buffs.

If they aren’t first attracted by V. Sattui’s beautiful picnic grounds, they are quickly won over by the quality of the vast array of wines. Sattui specializes in vineyard-designate bottlings, though its more generic offerings can be equally satisfying.

Sattui’s prowess was affirmed once again over the Memorial Day weekend in San Diego, California, where it had entered 27 wines in the 38th annual San Diego International Wine & Spirits Challenge.

V. Sattui was named domestic winery of the year after earning a remarkable 26 medals, including 10 that were awarded platinum and 12 awarded gold.

In its magnificent run, Sattui also produced a tie for Wine of the Year when two of its vineyard-designate cabernets – 2016 V. Sattui Mt. Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon ($92) and 2016 V. Sattui Vangone Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon ($140) – each dazzled with a score of 98 points out of 100.

Its Bordeaux-style blend, the 2016 Paradiso ($95), narrowly missed a three-way tie with a score of 97 points.

Import Winery of the Year went to Dandelion Vineyards of Australia, with 12 medals from 14 wines entered, including one platinum and seven golds. Domestic wine Company of the Year (meaning multiple brands) went to Trinchero Family Wines (based in the Napa Valley) on the strength of 43 medals from 52 wines entered, narrowly edging E&J Gallo,

which scored 56 medals from 71 wines entered for a “slugging percentage” of 1.1831 compared with Trinchero’s 1.2308. Quintessential Wines, an import company based in Napa, was import Company of the Year with a slugging percentage of 1.0400.

Slugging percentages are calculated by weighting platinum, gold and silver awards.

Best Value Wines are rated on a 100-point scale.

Wines are chosen for review because they represent outstanding quality or value, and the scores are simply a measure of this reviewer’s enthusiasm for the recommended wine.

Morgan 2018 Cotes du Crow’s, Monterey ($20) — This Grenachedominant red blend from Morgan is a beautiful offering coming into spring and summer. First of all, it goes down easy. Showing a peppery nose and bright red-fruit aroma, it delivers remarkable flavor intensity without being heavy. It’s perfect for summer sipping and a great match for grilled meats from the backyard barbecue. The Grenache (66%) is supported in body and spirit by a jolt (31%) of syrah and a touch of Tempranillo to round out the package. Rating: 90.

Tasting Notes Dutton Goldfield 2017 Pinot Noir, Dutton Ranch-Freestone Hill Vineyard, Russian River Valley ($72) – The first thing you will notice is the nose.

Intense aromas of black cherry and raspberry waft from the glass. On the palate, the flavors match the nose, but there’s more – cherry liqueur, fall spice

and more. Its firm tannins bode well for a short spell in the cellar. What you have in the end is another rock ‘em, sock ‘em Pinot from the brilliant team at Dutton Goldfield. This ceases to surprise anyone who’s been paying attention. Rating: 95.

AIA Vecchia 2017 ‘Sor Ugo,’ Bolgheri Superiore DOC, Italy ($42) – Borgheri is that sweet spot in Tuscany where Bordeaux grape varieties excel.

Vecchia’s “Super Tuscan” Bordeauxstyle blend, Sor Ugo, shows us how. On the nose, this vintage of Sor Ugo shows notes of dark berry fruits, a touch of graphite and a generous dose of wood spice. On the palate, it is richly layered with aromas of black currant and blackberry, a whiff of coffee bean and baking spice. This wine is beautifully structured, with impressive heft and firm tannins for the long haul. Rating: 94.

Dry Creek Vineyard 2017 Cabernet Sauvignon, Dry Creek Valley ($30) — This iconic winery in Sonoma County’s Dry Creek Valley consistently delivers outstanding red and white wines that rival the best in California at a fraction of the price. In a word, Dry Creek Vineyard consistently “overdelivers.”

This vintage of Dry Creek Valley Cabernet is another great example.

Richly layered, showing exceptional fruit purity and impressive depth, it’s a wine worthy of extended cellar time and over-the-top accolades. And it’s a

steal at the price. Rating: 94.

J Vineyards Cuvee 20 Brut, Russian River Valley ($38) — The latest release of J’s popular Cuvee 20 delivers a burst of fresh green apple with notes of toasted brioche and almond. With a fine mousse and impressive palate length, this is an elegant nonvintage cuvee sparkling wine that will dress up any dinner party. Rating: 94.

Morgan 2018 Tempranillo, Arroyo Seco ($24) – This is an easy drinking red that will be perfect for summer sipping as we head into summer. Showing pretty notes of black cherry and raspberry, soft tannins and a hint of floral and earth. Rating: 88.

family joined the Jacksons on the block, residents erupted. A mob of 125 white men gathered on the Jacksons’ lawn to threaten the families. Across town, neighbors in Linden Hills banded together to prevent an African American minister from buying a house.

The next year, the editorial board of the Minneapolis Journal called for coordinated action to make neighborhoods all white. The newspaper condemned mixed-race neighborhoods as “dangerous” and called on the city’s real estate board to contain what it called the city’s “considerable negro colony.”

Only 1 percent of the city’s population was identified as African American. But in 1910, business and political leaders saw this small number of nonwhite residents as a threat to civic harmony.

The Seven Oaks corporation recorded its first racial covenant that same year. It was just one of the real estate development companies that had be-gun experimenting with these new tools for shaping the urban landscape. Covenants had the enthusiastic support of the professionalizing real estate industry, which formed the National Association of Real Estate Boards (NAREB) in 1908.

This group popularized the idea that residential segregation kept the peace and protected investment.

By 1924, the NAREB had adopted a “code of ethics” that enjoined its members from “introducing into a neighborhood. . .members of any race or nationality. . .whose presence will clearly be detrimental to property values.” In 1927, it issued a standard restrictive covenant for members to use in communities across the country.

Though many covenants named a laundry list of “objectionable” people, in Hennepin County, covenants were crafted mainly to exclude African Americans. But Jews were also a target.

For instance, a 1919 advertisement in the Minneapolis Tribune appealed to anti-Semitic sentiments. Developer Edmund G. Walton offered “restricted” housing sites overlooking Lake of the Isles that could not “be conveyed mortgaged or leased to any person or persons of Chinese, Japanese, Moorish, Turkish, Negro, Mongolian, Semetic [sic] or African blood or descent.”

But later that same year, the Minnesota legislature banned real estate restrictions based on religious faith or creed. This might explain why less than one percent of the covenants

identified by the Mapping Prejudice Project (as of 2019) contain antiSemitic restrictions like the one advertised by Walton. Thanks to the 1919 state law, the city’s palpable antiSemitism was only rarely articulated in racially restrictive deeds.

Covenants were difficult to challenge, especially after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld these private restrictive agreements in Corrigan v.

Buckley in 1926. They ran with the land, which meant that they could be enforced decades after they were put into place. Anyone who breached a covenant risked ending up in court. They could be sued and held financially liable.

Most fearless in its campaign against racial covenants was the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), which brought a series of court challenges that ended up at the United States Supreme Court. In Shelley V. Kraemer (1948), that body declared covenants to be unenforceable. That decision ultimately did little to dissolve the barriers created by covenants.

In Minnesota, elected officials recognized that more action was necessary. The legislature banned new covenants in 1953. Then, in 1962, state lawmakers prohibited housing discrimination on the basis of race, religion and national origin. The federal government followed suit in 1968, when Congress passed the Fair Housing Act. By the time that covenants were made illegal, the damage was already done. Covenants made it difficult for African Americans to secure stable and affordable housing, which affected the health, educational opportunities and job prospects of generations of residents. And covenants created patterns of residential segregation that persist today. They also determined who could buy property. In tandem with redlining – a banking practice that made it impossible to get loans for properties in racially mixed neighborhoods – racially restrictive deeds shut African Americans out of property ownership.

The legacies of these practices are clear today. In 2019, the Twin Cities have the lowest African American homeownership rate in the country.

And since most families amass wealth through property ownership, this gap feeds the racial wealth gap. The wealth gap undergirds a whole host of other racial disparities, which are particularly acute in Minnesota.

Joe Leibinger, the foreman on the work being done by the county on the Rice Lake road, had an exciting adventure on Saturday.

Joe luckily was not heeled and Mrs. Bruin succumbed to a shot in the brain. The old bear was in very poor condition, but she weighed over three hundred pounds, the hide alone weighing sixteen pounds.

There appears to be a strong sentiment in the council to grant a saloon license for Park Point. An alderman speaking of the matter this afternoon said that the city might just as well have that $1000 to help pay for the free ferry, as not. He said that personally, he and a number of other aldermen were opposed to the sale of intoxicating liquors on Minnesota Point, but the people that were protesting against the “blind pig” and the license policy down there the most vigorously, were the very persons that declined to give the city aid or information that would lead to the conviction of those selling stimulating refreshments contrary to law. It is ridiculous to accuse the police of winking at the “blind pig,” and the very persons that will not give the police tangible evidence or go on the witness stand and give sworn testimony about that of which they claim to know so much. The alderman continued, “Now if these people haven’t the backbone to come out point blank and give testimony against these places, they will not be closed, and if they are going to run, we might just as well have the license money in the city treasury. I for one will vote for at least one license down there, though I would rather see Minnesota Point strictly prohibition.”

Duluth Herald June 21, 1910 DULUTH BIDS FAIR TO RIVAL PITTSBURGH OR CHICAGO WITH ITS SMOKE NUISANCE Citizens, Merchants and Housewives Are Rising in Protest.

Present City Ordinance Is Characterized as a “Joke.”

The smoke nuisance in Duluth has become a problem which will require much effort, time and thought to solve successfully.

Ordinances and amendments have been passed to regulate the evil, but thus far without success.

Some declare that it is because the ordinances and amendments are not worth the paper they are written upon, and a perusal of the provisions on the city books bears out the statement.

Others say that it is because the officials have been too lax, but it is impossible for them to enforce laws which are practically useless.

The fact remains that the smoke problem is getting worse and it is imperative that something must be

done without loss of time.

All over the city chimneys belch forth huge volumes of black smoke and soot at all hours of the day during the summer and day and night during the cold weather.

For proof walk down the street most any day when a fair breeze is blowing.

Before going many blocks your beautiful new light hat will be spotted, or some friend will ask you who gave you the “black eye,” which is noting but a blotch of dirty soot which has settled during your walk.

If you are a housewife you already know about the smoke nuisance. Too many of the snowy white garments of your washing have been spotted by the emissions of the surrounding chimneys.

Leave the door of your home open and sooty spots will show up on the table cloth, or the napkins, or upon the clothes which may happen to be exposed.

The present ordinance, which has been amended several times, cannot be classified as anything but a joke.

For instance, it prohibits tugs and steamboats from emitting smoke north of Michigan street, up among the rocks and cliffs.

Again, south of Michigan street, there is no prohibition of any kind.

Below that line manufacturers, steamboats or locomotives can load

the air with all the smoke they please, and there is absolutely nothing in the city ordinance to stop them.

Mrs. Rose Black Testifies In Sensational Alienation Case.

Mrs. Rose Le Meir Black, divorced wife of Geroald O. Black, testifying in district court today during the third day’s session of the Black-Haug alienation suit, recounted incidents of her domestic life which tended to show that the life of the Blacks was itinerant and consisted largely of a long series of bickerings and quarrels.

“He struck me again and again,” “he used vile language,” and “he often came home drunk” was the burden of Mrs. Black’s testimony. She recounted how they had been compelled several times to “move out” because of their failure to pay rent, and how the furniture had been seized upon at least one occasion because they could not meet payments on it.

“I had to go to Chief Randall for help,” she said. “I saw my husband with one ‘Maud Robbins’ at No. 2 fire hall and I asked the chief to aid me in settling my domestic troubles. My husband struck me on the side of the head because I was the cause of his being called before the chief for an interview.”

Several witnesses of minor importance testified today. It was expected that all evidence would be in early this afternoon, and that the attorneys will open their arguments today before the case is turned over to the jury.

The sessions were created to empower black, indigenous and mixed race students, along with their allies. The goal is to create the Duluth NAACP youth council.

Because of COVID-19, a lot of the work had to move online. “Quaranteen” events have been held as a way for these students to continue growing their connections. After the death of George Floyd, Free Space events were added multiple times a week. Those will become less frequent as time goes on, but still serve as a safe space for students to share their fears and frustrations to their peers and counselors.

Of course, not every student can access these technologies, often due to poverty.

“Racism has created barriers for people to engage in these ways,” said Terresa Moses, 2nd Vice President of the Duluth NAACP branch and chair of the Young Adult Committee.

But that doesn’t mean the momentum will die down.

“There’s been a huge resurgence in young people who want to organize,” she said. “It’s imperative that they have the tools necessary to make policy change, to talk about how to change the institutional systems.”

One of those institutions is the po-

lice system. In 1920, law enforcement let down the three young black men who were lynched by the mob. It’s a legacy many see echoed today, one of unaccountability and unchecked power.

“People say it’s just a few bad apples,” said Oyinloye. “But if there were just a few bad apples, George Floyd would be alive. The whole system is a bad apple.”

The murals created on Monday are full of images and words of pain and hope. They are now displayed at the Clayton Jackson McGhie Memorial.

the central office’s recommendations may change depending on what happens leading up to the fall semester.

“Testing may be the area where this has been evolving and continues to evolve the most, in terms of both the technology (and) the recommendations we’re seeing,” said Cramer. “And so, at this point every one of our campuses is talking to public health officials locally about testing and tracing options.”

Craig Roberts is an emeritus epidemiologist with the University of Wisconsin-Madison and a member of the COVID-19 taskforce for the American College Health Association.

He said the UW System guidelines are generally in line with what other universities and state systems are planning. Even the 50-person limit for in-person classes is common, he said.

“Setting aside 5 percent of available resident hall rooms for quarantine or isolation, that actually isn’t something I’ve seen yet,” said Roberts. “But a lot of people are asking me about (it).

So, it’s interesting to see that in print because frankly, most of us have no idea what that number should be.”

Therein lies the real issue, said Roberts. He said despite best intentions, planning and expert opinions, the unprecedented nature of reopening universities amid a pandemic means much of the recommendations are “complete guesswork.”

Roberts’ said with proper distancing, infection risks on campus aren’t likely to be much higher than off campus, but potentials for COVID-19 spread in dormitories does concern him.

The UW System campus guidelines for fall semester follow announcements from UW-Eau Claire, UW-Stout, UW-River Falls, UW-Platteville, UWStevens Point, UW-Green Bay and UWWhitewater.

When families are faced with financial uncertainty or sudden income loss, addressing the situation takes more than just thinking about dol-

lars and cents, says Lori Hendrickson, Extension Educator and an accredited financial counselor with University of Minnesota Extension.

“Often, when layoffs and income reduction happen, we are experiencing shock and denial that keep us from immediately making adjustments in our spending to keep us on solid ground,” according to Hendrickson.

Layoffs due to the COVID-19 pandemic are an example of events that can have significant financial impact on many families in Minnesota.

Working through the grief caused by a sudden drop in income allows families to plan for how to adjust their finances with clear heads, and the entire family should be a part of those conversations.

Hendrickson advises, “When we are adjusting spending, it’s important to include the whole family. Talk about items in the budget that are necessary and those that can be put off or elimi-

nated altogether. Ask these questions: • Can we substitute a less costly item?

• How can we avoid waste?

• Are there opportunities to work with others by trading or sharing what we can do?

• Can we save if we do it ourselves?

• Can we do without?

After determining the impact of the income loss, Hendrickson says to be sure to talk with creditors to let them know the situation and discuss when and how you may make payments.

frustration as I hope for if I were to burn a stranger’s car in response to an act by another I thoroughly disapproved of. By that reasoning you’d expect to see lines of unhappy Minnesotans heading with torches to the Twin Cities to set evil afire.

I, as you likely have as well, have heard warnings of Supremacist Nazis waiting to storm the streets and force their will on others. Then there outside a burning metro Target was proof for all to see as droves of Nazis storm trooped and pillaged the self-entitled oppressors.

Those were Nazis weren’t they?

It’s hard to tell sometimes because of the masks and lack of uniformity in uniforms. Anyway, those must be the Nazis (and there were a lot of them) we were told to worry about. Now I’m worried. The threat is real.

But on a happier side it was good to note that civil society and authority surrendered quickly and no doubt saved many lives. It’s truly fortunate so many protesters (sometimes identified otherwise as looters or supremacist Nazis) lived near enough threatened businesses to be able to rush in to rescue merchandise at risk.

If out-of-towners they were well informed where to go and were prepared to save as many goods as possible. Well, whoever was involved they performed with the kind of civic mindedness usually pointed accusingly at corporate greed. Perhaps individual greed could be considered, but only at risk of offending others.

How familiar are you with the reality of anger stored over generations? I thought I’d be unable to say with any certainty what angered my ancestors.

But, generational anger is such a useful concept I stopped, thought, and went “of course.” I’d simply neglected being sufficiently outraged about past offenses to my tree. Offense was there all along, but not adequately brought forward.

My grandfather’s youngest sister was taken by a foreign army to work (imagine how) in an army brothel.

Getting pregnant eventually got in the way, but bearing a conquering soldier’s child provided some lifesaving exception before getting back to work followed in a year with another conqueror’s child and eventually a change of work assignment to forced labor.

For Maria this was all highly inconvenient, I’m sure, but see how

nicely it worked out, and thank goodness the authorities discouraged her from having any lasting attachment to her two offspring.

Free as a bird she was deported by the friendly Allies back to her home country.

Wouldn’t you feel just dandy being sent back to your neighborhood or village after years as a successful prostitute and slave laborer?

Those who knew the details thought it best not to bring the subject up, but in a context of generations of anger waiting to be used I wonder what that one’s worth. What’s the going rate for stored generational anger? Do I or we (this may need to be parceled out among cousins, etc.) get to torch a car?

And what about all the years we passed on burning an auto? I have 80+ years in reserve. Do they count? I’ll accept a discounted rate of 40 vehicles.

This means having to burn an entire dealership if I’m going to get caught up.

To make it fair (see how this works) I need to randomly pick an ownership that has never done me any harm.

But as a practical being I’d be willing for the sake of all involved to satisfy my generational anger with a cash payment for the value of vehicles I’ll not burn. A bank draft will be acceptable.

Remember riots in Minneapolis a few years back when officer Noor shot and killed Justine Damond? Neither do I. (Race or gender, no, maybe just a dislike of Australians. Who’d call Noor out for that?)

Fortunately the media bless us with as many authorities of short sight as they give for medical expertise.

Perhaps the press is a sanctuary city for the unlicensed to practice, though the sanctuary habit seems somewhat selective. More serious the issue the noisier the response needed for better ratings. The problem with populism is populism.

Do blossoms of love and joy grow from politics? In my view seeds planted by politics thrive best in soils rich with the manure of ego, watered by imaginary rain during sun showers on sunless days.

The political plant doesn’t cultivate peace. The political plant requires your need. The fruit of politics is power. It may appear benign, but beyond the sweet exterior what waits?

Stop annoying hiccups with flavored Rolaids Q: In the past, when I would get the hiccups, they would last all day, off and on, no matter what I did. One day I was having a really persistent bout and thought, “I wonder what would happen if I took some Rolaids?” I popped a few flavored Rolaids into my mouth, crunched them down and shazam – within seconds, the pesky, annoying hiccups were gone. It’s worked for me several times since, and it’s a real relief.

A: We have been writing about hiccup remedies for decades. Most are based on personal experiences like yours, but occasionally we’ll spot something in the medical literature.

The first we found was in the New England Journal of Medicine, Dec. 23, 1971. A doctor tested a spoonful of white sugar on 20 patients with persistent hiccups and reportby ed that 19 got quick relief from their hiccups.

We suspect that sugar, like your Rolaids, work by stimulating the phrenic nerve in the palate. This in turn triggers the vagus nerve and apparently reverses the involuntary contraction of the diaphragm. Strong flavors may also play a role.

Q: I take bupropion 300 mg XL for depression. I’ve not had any problems with it previously, but the latest bottle smells like rotten eggs.

I called the pharmacy and they told me that some drugs smell and not to worry about it. They said that the drug is safe to take. True?

A: We learned from a scientist who worked at Burroughs Wellcome when the firm was developing the antidepressant Wellbutrin (bupropion) that the terrible smell you describe indicates that the drug is deteriorating.

Some people who took Budeprion XL 300, the first generic version of Wellbutrin XL 300, also experienced the unpleasant odor.

We asked readers of this column to send us their Budeprion bottles

so we could forward them to the Food and Drug Administration for analysis. The smell was distinctive.

We badgered the FDA for five years, and the agency eventually concluded that there were problems with that generic formulation.

Your pharmacy should find another supplier. If need be, you could order brand-name Wellbutrin XL 300 from Canada at substantial savings.

You can learn more about generic drug problems and ways to use legitimate online pharmacies from our eGuide to Saving Money on Medicines. This electronic resource is available in the Health eGuides section of PeoplesPharmacy.com.

Q: I have an ongoing problem with yeast overgrowth on both sides of my mouth. This has been a problem for nearly a year. I’ve seen the dermatologist multiple times, and she diagnosed yeast.

I have tried various topical creams. The only one that does any good is a combination of clotrimazole and betamethasone.

The trouble is, she says not to use it long term.

The pills she would like to prescribe either contain titanium dioxide, to which I’m allergic, or cost more than $300. I’m retired and living on Social Security. I can’t afford to spend money on pills that might not work. Please help!

A: It sounds like you are describing angular cheilitis, painful cracks at the corners of the mouth. Yeast overgrowth is often the cause, although sometimes people who have become deficient in zinc, vitamin B2 or vitamin B12 will respond to supplements.

Other readers have reported success treating the cracked corners of their mouths with amber Listerine.

This old-fashioned mouthwash contains essential oils with antifungal activity. Because yeast is a form of fungus, this can sometimes be helpful.

In preparation for the opening, IROC spent last week installing trail signs. Kicking off with a training last Saturday by Construction Manager Scott Linnenburger, IROC volunteers improved trail drainage with McLeods (hoe rakes) and learned how to maintain the trail system.

While the trails are built for mountain biking, they are multi-use.

Trail-runners have already discovered the incredible views offered within the system. Key to this multi-use is to note mountain bikers have the right of way and are moving fast. Trails are marked with direction of flow, and non-bikers should traverse the trails in the opposite direction.

While the first 15 miles of trails are opened to the public, a second phase of trail construction will be completed during the summer and fall of 2020. The full trail system is expected to circumnavigate the water-filled mine pit and offer a range of riding experiences from easy, beginner trails to double black diamond expert-only trails. A Grand Opening is tentatively scheduled for Spring 2021 when the whole 25+ mile trail system is expected to be complete.

Stollenwerk to serve on Great Lakes board

The United States Environmental Protection Agency announced today its appointees to the Great Lakes Advisory Board, a federal committee established to provide ongoing recommendations regarding the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative and the Great Lakes Water Quality Agreement between the U.S. and Canada. The appointees included Jeff Stollenwerk, Duluth Seaway Port Authority director of government and environmental affairs.

“I am deeply honored to be appointed to the Great Lakes Advisory Board and to be representing our region on important environmental protection decisions at the federal level,” said Stollenwerk, who is joined on the board by leaders from Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan and Wisconsin.

The 14 selectees represent a broad range of business groups, environmental organizations, academia and local, state and tribal governments.

Collectively, the group will work with the EPA to find solutions for restoring and protecting the Great Lakes.

“First and foremost, the Great Lakes

are the drinking water supply for millions of people and must be protected for future generations,” said Stollenwerk. “These tremendous water resources are also key drivers in the regional economic engine that includes industries, manufacturing, recreation and tourism. Advising the EPA on those interests, in addition to implementation of the binational water quality agreement, is important to ensure responsible use of our shared water resources now and in the future.”

The EPA’s Great Lakes Advisory Board originated in 2012 to advise on protection and restoration policy. It was re-established in December 2018.

In April 2020, the EPA announced an additional $20 million in Great Lakes restoration funding.

Summer theater camp goes virtual under COVID For the past 14 years, the Grand Rapids Player has hosted their Summer Theatre Kids Camp in their home at the Reif Center performing on the Wilcox stage. Not wanting to miss a beat, this year they have focused their energies on thinking outside the box to come up with an alternative that is COVID-compliant and still promises to have all the elements of education, fun and creativity.

Lauded as DIY Summer Theatre Camp, the program will run for three months. Each month, three Script & Tips kits will be released, featuring a familiar classic fairy tale written into

script format. Project coordinator, Sharon Marty, explains, “Six classic fairy tales with familiar story lines have been crafted into scripts written at an elementary reading level with lines for the characters that range from short sentences for the younger ones to extensive reading for the narrators.

Parents are encouraged to join in the fun. This is a project where kids can really make it their own production and parents can join in as characters, stage hands, narrator, sound techs and more! They can change the genre from fairy tale to science fiction or fantasy.

They can design their own costumes, and even characters, in place of the traditional. They can spruce it up even more by including their own music, songs and dance steps!

“Everything you need to know is available on our website,” Marty continued. “Each month families can choose from three stories.”

The six selections to choose from include The Little Red Hen, The Three Billy Goats Gruff, Caps for Sale, available

in June, and The Gingerbread Man, Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and The Three Pigs in July. August selections will be a repeat of three from the previously featured six selections.

In this program families will take on the “do-it-yourself” approach as they create the stage, costumes, set pieces, props, artistic directing, and sound effects. Marty will be joined by another summer theatre camp director, Kayla Witherill, and will serve as the virtual drama coaches to offer help, encouragement and applause.

There is no charge to participate in this outreach program. Visit info@ grplayers.com for information.

Activists demand defunding Protest against police terror across the United States over the past two weeks is beginning to produce change. George Floyd’s murder by Minneapolis police drove hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of people into the streets, demanding both justice for Floyd and other victims of the police, and fundamental change to policing itself. “Defund the Police” is by being heard coast to coast from people tired of the cycle of police violence, protest, promised reform and then ... nothing. In Minneapolis, a supermajority of the city council has committed to dismantling the Minneapolis Police Department.

“We haven’t seen a moment like this in at least half a century,” said Harvard professor Khalil Gibran Muhammad, author of “The Condemnation of Blackness,” speaking on the Democracy Now! news hour, “with protesters taking to the streets to demand, once and for all, not just police reform and accountability, but the prospect of a new vision of a relationship between state authorities and the health of a community.”

In Minneapolis, four officers face prosecution for George Floyd’s murder. But the public wants more than convictions, which, in themselves, are far from certain according to Minnesota’s first African American Attorney General Keith Ellison.

Ellison took charge of the prosecution over concerns that the county prosecutor had a pro-police bias.

After decades of impunity, violence against residents and dismal success solving violent crimes, many in Minneapolis want their police department torn down.

“We’ve got to create a system of public safety that works for everybody,” City Council Member Jeremiah Ellison said on Democracy Now! He is Keith Ellison’s son, and knows personally about the MPD’s penchant for violence. In 2015, amidst mass nonviolent protests following the police killing of yet another young African American man named Jamar Clark, an MPD

officer pointed a gun at Jeremiah’s head as he held his hands in the air.

“We did a study last year of 911 calls, and we realized that one of the top calls that police make are for what we call emotionally disturbed persons or mental health calls,” Jeremiah Ellison continued.

“Do we need a gun present at a call like that? I think that the answer to that is no.”

In New York City, groups have labored for decades to reform the New York Police Department, with its ever-lengthening list of unarmed black men killed by its officers: Amadou Diallo, Patrick Dorismond, Ousmane Zongo, Timothy Stansbury Jr., Sean Bell, Ramarley Graham, Eric Garner and the list goes on. Veteran activist Linda Sarsour helped organize a march in the aftermath of George Floyd’s murder, demanding change. “Over 50,000 people came out with us,” she said on Democracy Now! “Let the cops do what the cops are supposed to do: Keep people safe. They are not social workers. They are not mental health professionals. They are not educators ... All we’re saying is, decrease their budget, take that money and reappropriate it into youth, seniors, community development and with a focus on those who have been the most directly impacted, on communities of color, poor working-class people.”

As people have risen up demanding justice for George Floyd and policies to address the enduring plague of racism in the United States, the police, the National Guard and President Donald Trump and his minions have done everything they can to violently suppress dissent. Activists have been beaten, tear gassed, maced, shot and arrested en masse. Nonviolent protesters and journalists alike have lost eyes, been rammed by cars and trucks, suffered broken limbs. At a rally in San Jose, California, police shot their own anti-bias trainer in the groin with a rubber-coated steel ball bullet, bursting his testicle.

Derrick Sanderlin, a 27-year-old African American, may never be able to father children.

As the tear gas clears, police reform laws are beginning to get passed. Chokeholds have been banned in New York state and Colorado, as well as in Houston and Raleigh, North Carolina. The

U.S. House of Representatives is advancing a bill that will ban chokeholds in federal law enforcement. It also will create a national database of violent cops, so that a fired officer can’t simply move to a police department in some other city or town.

After George Floyd’s funeral Tuesday, his younger brother, Philonise,

flew to Washington, where he testified before the House Judiciary Committee: “George wasn’t hurting anyone that day. He didn’t deserve to die over 20 dollars. I am asking you, is that what a black man’s worth? Twenty dollars? This is 2020. Enough is enough.”

Fighting a new kind of recession with new tools: Pandemic Bonds History provides plenty of examples for those who make public policy.

However, knowing about the past lulls those policymakers into a sense of complacency, of thinking that the plans that worked before can be pulled out, dusted off, and applied to current problems. Sometimes this works if the world hasn’t changed very much.

We live in a radically changed world.

The Pandemic Recession is different from every recession the U.S. has experienced since World War II and, perhaps, since the Civil War. We need to think about it differently and enact new policies to fight it.

A typical recession versus a pandemic recession A typical recession involves a shock to the economy, which leads to a fall in by spending by households and businesses, which leads to a decrease in employment. There is a feedback effect of the decrease in employment, which leads to further cuts in spending by households and businesses.

For instance, consider the Great Recession of 2007-2009. The financial markets started seizing up in August 2007 and by September 2008 they were in free fall. This made it difficult, if not impossible, for companies to borrow money for expanding their businesses and for households to get the credit they needed to buy houses and cars. This led to declines in both household and business spending on construction, autos, and a wide variety of goods and services. The result was that construction firms, auto companies, and other businesses started laying off and firing workers, who in turn lost income and cut back their spending, leading to a downward spiral of recession.

The Federal Reserve responded by reducing interest rates to zero and engaging in a wide variety of actions to shore up the financial system. The effect was initially to cushion the blow to spending and then to encourage households and businesses to slowly

resume their usual levels of spending.

As spending gradually increased, businesses started hiring more workers and unemployment started to fall.

The Federal Reserve’s actions were the standard policy response in a typical recession.

The current Pandemic Recession is different. This recession began with a shock, but this time it involved shutting down businesses to reduce the spread of COVID-19. This led directly to a decrease in employment, which then led to a fall in spending by households and businesses. The fall in spending is feeding back to further decreases in employment.

Using the typical recession policy response of the Fed reducing interest rates might lead to an increase in spending by households and businesses.

However, if the shutdown continues or even if the economy opens up by 50 percent, the potential increase in spending will not materialize or be relatively small and thus the economy could be stuck with high levels of unemployment for a long time.

What is to be done?

The current dilemma for policymakers is that they’re trying to fit everything into a typical recession, not a Pandemic Recession.

This recession is more like a natural disaster such as an earthquake. When people come out of their shelters after an earthquake, things aren’t the same.

Bridges have collapsed, buildings have collapsed, highways are impassable. In the same way, we can’t simply reboot after COVID-19. We have to clean up from the disaster and rebuild.

Congress and the President enacted a variety of relief measures in March, but since then they have done little while putting the burden on action on the Federal Reserve.

This is a mistake. Public policy must break the feedback among unemployment, lost income and declining spending, and reducing interest rates and backstopping financial institutions will not do the trick.

Policymakers, both at the state and federal levels, need to apply fiscal policy. Fiscal policy involves using taxes and spending to affect the economy. In this case, this should take three specific forms.

Prof. Louis D. Johnston First, we need to provide direct support for households and businesses.

This can take the form of tax reductions or eliminations, increased unemployment compensation and food stamps, and a variety of other ways to funnel money directly to firms and families. This would allow them to maintain their usual levels of spending and thus prevent further employment losses.

Second, state and local governments need support from the federal government. Specifically, state and local governments must run balanced budgets and thus when tax revenues fall they must cut spending. The federal government should send funds directly to the state and local government to tide them through this downturn.

Third, the federal government must fight the pandemic by embarking on a crash program to develop testing regimes, tracing programs and

vaccines.

How can we pay for all of this?

My view is that the federal government should issue Pandemic Bonds, just as the U.S. did in World War II. Ideally, these would be perpetual bonds with no expiration date. The bondholders would receive perpetual interest payments, but no principal payments.

We need to recognize that the we will never pay off the national debt but simply service it, and perpetual bonds would go a long way toward doing this.

We can afford to do this.

Since 1870, the U.S. economy has averaged two percent growth in terms of inflation-adjusted income per person. That means that the average real income per person will be double today’s level in about 35 years.

We can borrow a bit of that increase today, invest in testing, tracing and vaccinating, and still be far richer in the future than we are today.

We can, and should, borrow from this richer future to pay for the investments we need to ensure that a brighter future comes true.

‘Proud Boys’ in Wisconsin

Controversial group embraces ‘Western values,’ rejects feminism In May 2017, eight men met at Mackesey’s Irish Pub in downtown Madison to drink beer and talk politics.

The men, all of them white and most in their 20s, had met online and were getting together for the first time.

The meeting would establish the Wisconsin chapter of an emerging national group called the Proud Boys.

For Thaddeus Pall, it was a rare opportunity to openly express his support for President Donald Trump in liberal Madison.

As the men were leaving the bar for a member’s apartment, Pall, then 26, separated from the group to buy cigarettes.

According by to Madison police, as Pall was returning to his new friends, he was approached on the street by men in hoodies with what Pall described as baseball bats or wooden sticks. He told police the men had targeted him as a Trump supporter because of his T-shirt, which read: “Basket of Deplorables 2016.”

Pall said one yelled, “He is wearing a Trump shirt! He’s a Nazi!” and three surrounded him, pummeling his head, hands and arms and shattering his cell phone. Pall told the officer he did not know who the attackers were but thought he knew what they were: antifascist activists known as “antifa.” An “antifa” website later published a blog post detailing the attack and claiming responsibility.

After the beating, Pall tweeted a photo of his face and hands covered in blood. As a member of the Proud Boys, a libertarian men’s club that conveys special status on members who are attacked by anti-fascists, Pall had just achieved the highest degree of membership.

But Pall, a former Madison resident who now lives in northern Michigan, said in an interview that he is no longer active in the Proud Boys, although he said the attack did not alter his feelings about the group.

“I think people need to calm down.

It’s just politics. People can have different views. We all want the same things – we all want a better planet, a better world, a better future. This dis-

Proud Boys members Brad, left, and Eric meet at The Explorium Brewpub at Southridge Mall in Greendale, Wis. The men, who asked that their last names not be used to avoid retaliation from anti-fascists, say the Proud Boys is a drinking fraternity that opposes white nationalism. Some members believe feminism is “cancer” and that women would be happier as homemakers and not in the workforce. Photo by Alexandra Hall / WPR/Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism agreement is really about how you get there,” Pall said.

The Proud Boys were founded at the height of the 2016 presidential campaign by Gavin McInnes, a New York-based conservative online talk show host and co-founder of Vice Media who has since cut ties with the company. He estimates the membership at about 5,000 men nationwide.

McInnes and his followers believe there are 10 ways to “save America”: Abolish prisons, give each American a gun, legalize drugs, end welfare, close borders to illegal immigrants, outlaw censorship, venerate the housewife, glorify the entrepreneur, shut down the government and declare “the West is the best.”

Members also traffic in inflammatory language. A female reporter arranging an interview for this story with Wisconsin Proud Boy members in September was asked by the interview subject whether he should bring condoms. In a later interview, McInnes told the reporter she should give up her career, that “you need to find a man,” and that she would run out of

40 June 18, 2020 DuluthReader.com

eggs if she did not get pregnant soon.

In McInnes’ view, there is a demand for men’s clubs like the Proud Boys because, “There’s a real war on masculinity in this country that starts in kindergarten and goes all the way to adulthood. And it’s not natural.”

The interviews were part of the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism’s reporting for Documenting Hate, a project led by the nonprofit investigative news organization ProPublica. More than 100 news outlets and other groups are collecting data and stories on hate and discrimination incidents for the project.

‘Cereal’ beatings The Proud Boys call themselves “proud Western chauvinists” who “refuse to apologize for creating the modern world.”

Initiation into the group is a multistep process. A first-degree member simply declares he is a Proud Boy. Initiation at the second degree involves getting punched by other members while naming five breakfast cereals.

Third degree is earned by getting a Proud Boy tattoo. Fourth degree is

a “consolation prize” if a member “endures a major conflict related to the cause,” as Pall did.

Members often greet each other with the group’s ironic rallying cry, “Uhuru!” The word is Swahili for freedom and was taken from a video showing an activist calling for whites to make slavery reparations to AfricanAmericans.

The Proud Boys also have a “no wanks” policy urging members to avoid masturbation and pornography to motivate them to get “off the couch” and meet women.

Group members have participated in recent rallies that drew anti-fascists in Portland and Berkeley that turned violent. The attack on Pall in Madison has been investigated by the FBI; federal authorities have called “antifa” members domestic terrorists. No charges have been filed.

McInnes has fiercely distanced the Proud Boys from white nationalists, but experts say some of the group’s beliefs overlap with so-called alt-right ideology.

In October (2017), a University of Wisconsin-Madison graduate student, who at the time was being vetted as a possible new member of the Proud Boys, was relieved from his teaching assistant position. Doctoral student CV Vitolo-Haddad had written a blog post showing the graduate student had spread racist and anti-Semitic messages at Oberlin College in 2013 plus a 2016 tweet about “gassing” Jews.

The student claimed the 2013 incidents were jokes intended to provoke an overreaction, according to news reports from the time. An email to the student was not returned.

Just a drinking club Late one night in early October, as a full moon swelled above the outside patio of The Explorium Brewpub at Southridge Mall near Milwaukee, three Proud Boys – Patrick, Eric and Brad – met to drink beer and explain their vision for the future of America.

Patrick seemed friendly and approachable. Eric and Brad arrived wearing matching black and yellow Fred Perry polo shirts, the uniform of the Proud Boys. Eric appeared wary; Brad was combative.

Earlier Brad had warned in text messages that the group had nothing to do with the “alt-right” or white

nationalism, that such an association would put them in physical danger, and he threatened to call off the interview.

All three asked to be identified by first name only. “Antifa” members had posted personal information about Eric and other Proud Boys members online following the Madison attack. Patrick, who also declined to be photographed, said he feared he could lose his job.

Asked to describe the group, Brad took a slug from his beer. “First and foremost, we’re a drinking fraternity,” he said.

The men said they learned about the Proud Boys by watching YouTube videos of McInnes, who hosts an online talk show that combines rightwing politics with satire. During the 2016 election cycle, Brad said, he listened to McInnes’ show daily while he got ready for work. It was the group’s use of unfiltered expression that drew him in.

“Everybody has a platform. We have a platform. Black Lives Matter has a platform. And you know, I’m sorry for the people who don’t like it, but the Ku Klux Klan and the neo-Nazis have a platform. That’s free speech,” he said.

“I share no white guilt. I’m not guilty about any of the things that happened here 200 years ago. I wasn’t here. My relatives weren’t here. We didn’t move here until way after the Civil War. So I’m done being villainized as the white devil. I’m not him.”

Wisconsin Proud Boy Brad Brad and the other members said they also are tired of the pressure to feel guilty for being who they are.

“None of us ever knew anybody that owned a slave,” he said. “Personally, my family didn’t emigrate here until the first World War. I share no white guilt. I’m not guilty about any of the things that happened here 200 years ago. I wasn’t here. My relatives weren’t here. We didn’t move here until way after the Civil War. So I’m done being villainized as the white devil. I’m not him.”

The Proud Boys say there is no public space for people to support Trump without being labeled “Nazis.”

It’s now counterculture to call oneself a conservative,” Patrick chimed in. He recalled feeling alienated recently when he was told he could not use

the bathroom at his neighbor’s house because of his “Make America Great Again” hat.

“We were all hanging out drinking beers in the backyard, and I laughed, thinking they were joking, and they were dead serious. They now look at it as a personal affront to them if you have a different political view … it used to be the liberal was the defender of free speech and to stick up for people that have contrary opinions,” he said.

Patrick and Brad said they both voted for Barack Obama in 2008 and 2012. All three are now avid Trump supporters.

Eric, who is now the Wisconsin chapter president, said he was attracted to Trump’s rejection of political correctness: “He kind of just put it in your face and didn’t care what people

thought.”

Rather than provocateurs, Eric sees the Proud Boys occupying a middle ground.

“I liked that they weren’t (a) white supremacist, white nationalist group, but they weren’t trying to appease the left,” he said.

He said he was also drawn to the group’s respect for the traditional family.

“It’s basic family values … morals.

The values that our grandparents were raised on,” he added.

Asked about his view of feminism, Eric responded, “It’s cancer … I just think it’s taken so much away from the traditional family that it’s contributed to the degradation of the American family. When it came to equality for women and equal rights and votes, OK yeah, that’s all good and well. But now it’s just turned into kind of what’s seeming to be anti-male basically.”

Late one Friday night, after agreeing to consider an interview, Eric sent a Wisconsin Public Radio reporter a Facebook message that read: “Should I bring the condoms? Because I know that when you get the truth, you’ll be ready.”

Loons and blackflies

NATURAL CONNECTIONS by

EMILY

STONE

The loon nest at left is plagued by black flies who have driven the parents to deeper water – away from their incubation duties Just before the black flies hatched, this loon began incubating two eggs on Lake Namakagon. The black fly that attacks loons does not bite humans, although the one at right landed on my cheek. The flies likely identify loons by the smell of the oil used for preening their feathers. Photos by Emily Stone.

Ratchet straps, paddles, life jackets, and cameras were flying everywhere as I rushed to unload my kayak from my car and get it to the lake. Nipping at my heels – nd my ears, neck, temples, wrists, and eyelids – were swarms of black flies.

I snorted one out of my nose, and blew another off my lips, but the rest I tried hard to ignore. Taking time to swat them would mean delaying my escape to the water.

Finally, with a couple of quick paddle strokes I pulled away from the landing and into a fresh breeze.

Mineral Lake sparkled in the late afternoon sunshine, and baby leaves on the surrounding trees glowed with the promise of new life. As I paddled into a headwind, the last of my tormentors disappeared. With a deep breath, I found peace.

Gliding along, my mind drifted off to another lake – Lake Namakagon. While biking around it on May 14, I was ecstatic to spot the distinctive shape of a loon’s head nestled among the grasses on a small island, visible from the road.

Thrilled that I’d brought my camera, I zoomed in and snapped a few shots.

After a few seconds of stillness, the black flies swarmed – the first of the season for me.

The following day was sunny, calm, and perfect for paddling, so I launched from my house and headed toward the bay that holds the nest – hoping to

42 June 18, 2020 DuluthReader.com

get another glimpse of the loon. Not wanting to disturb a nesting bird, I once again zoomed in with my camera, to check out the nest from afar.

No distinctive silhouette stuck up from the island, although I heard a single, plaintive wail from the far side of the bay. Where had the loons gone?

Drifting closer, I could soon see that the nest was not empty after all.

Two large, dark eggs gleamed in the sunlight, and surrounding them was the thickest cloud of black flies I’ve ever seen.

Simulium annulus is a species of black fly that focuses their insanity-inducing, bloodsucking behavior entirely on loons. They crawl around the loon’s eyes and bill, use special claws to burrow into feathers, and raise welts so big that they ruffle up the loon’s usually sleek neck.

With jagged, knife-like mouthparts, black flies tear into tender skin, rupture capillaries, and create a pool of blood.

Chemicals in their saliva numb the site and prevent the blood from coagulating as they lap it up.

Loons in a cloud of black flies suffer from blood loss, irritating reactions to the anticoagulant, and blood-born parasites and viruses transmitted by the flies.

Without hands to swat them away, a loon’s only options are to sit and endure, or to dive and leave the eggs cold and unprotected. The embryos can survive some exposure if the

parents return frequently to incubate, but there is a limit, and many will not survive.

Luckily, in a normal year with warm spring weather, all of the black flies hatch, seek a blood meal, mate, and lay eggs in just a few days. The brief scourge can be endured, and most loon nests are unaffected.

In cool springs, though, like the one we’ve just had, some female black flies delay their quest for a blood meal while waiting for better weather, and others stick to the schedule. This means that loons must endure the plague of black flies for a longer period of time.

Do you remember the spring of 2014 – the year of the Polar Vortex – when lakes were still locked in ice for fishing opener? That spring, 70% of loons’ first nest attempts failed.

Walter Piper has been studying loons on northern Wisconsin lakes for more than 20 years, and it was the worst rate of nest failure he’s ever seen.

Although ice-out dates this spring weren’t that extreme, our cold April may have produced the same result.

Walter Piper – monitoring remotely from California – wrote about a black fly outbreak in his recent Loon Project blog.

Linda Grenzer, one of LoonWatch’s star volunteers, just reported that every loon nest she monitors is coated with black flies and abandoned.

Sadly, my observation is just one

more depressing data point.

The good news is that loons have been around long enough to figure out some coping strategies.

Even when a pair abandons the nest, they can still try again, after the black fly numbers have diminished.

However, the second attempt is more likely to produce just one chick instead of two.

Loons have even learned that when eggs fail due to black flies, they can reuse the same nest location. In contrast, losing eggs to a nest predator like a raccoon – who would not be gone in a week – would necessitate moving the nest in an attempt to find a safer location.

So, in the face of potentially deadly parasites, loons, as well humans, are weighing our options carefully this spring. For both of us, escaping to the middle of a lake to avoid diseasecarrying crowds seems a pretty good idea.

Land Ho! I see hockey on the horizon GLEN AVON – The troubles plaguing our world and country certainly haven’t subsided a bit, even if the mainstream media has chosen to give the ongoing protests less coverage in a pointed attempt to delegitimize them, but this week I am choosing to return to covering a more positive subject; the National Hockey League.

Last Monday the 8th, teams by could officially reopen their practice facilities for small group workouts provided they followed the league mandates regarding such. There is now some workout and skating activity occurring at all team facilities as players continue to filter in from wherever they chose to engage in their quarantine protocol.

However, there is still an estimated 20% of the league’s rostered players outside of North America still awaiting a return to their team’s home cities.

And with a two-week quarantine still in place in Canada for foreigners entering the country, any players returning there will have to get back soon in order to be eligible to participate.

Training camps will commence on July 10, so players are currently ramping up their training activities in order to be ready.

For the seven clubs that will not be a part of the Stanley Cup tournament, they remain idle and in an official “offseason” status. It is my understanding that those seven are the first group of teams entered into the NHL draft lottery, and that the eight clubs that do not win in the qualifying round will be joining them for the lottery draw prior to the league’s entry draft.

The league and the NHLPA are still in the process of determining a startup date for the tournament and the draft.

Obviously I’m biased, but in my personal observance of the various professional leagues and their path’s to a resumption of play, I believe the NHL has taken the most intelligent and non-contentious route to doing so.

I’m sure there were some disagreements within their talks, but just based on what I’ve seen thus far within the ranks of MLB and the NBA regarding a return to play, the NHL’s progress has

DuluthReader.com

MASKED FAN MARC

been the smoothest.

I believe this happened because they first agreed upon some common goals, and then went about finding the best way to accomplish those goals, with everyone’s safety being at the forefront of how they were going to do everything.

The talks in baseball for instance between their executive branch and PA have featured a fair amount of disagreement.

Overall I believe they desire to kick off their 2020 season but cannot agree on the number of games to be played within that season and what the players compensation will be. I also believe it will be challenging to come to an agreement for them so long as compensation remains at the top of the list. Both sides will have to make sacrifices and they seem to be a ways apart on that issue at this point in time.

In fact, I have just read minutes ago that the MLBPA has walked away from the negotiations and stated that MLB should just come up with an order for them as to when the season would begin and any other pertinent information necessary to do so. It is believed that would do nothing other than initiate a lawsuit from the PA over compensation among other issues. It could be observed that this has been brewing since the 2016 CBA was settled which has basically led to little upward movement in player salaries for the last five years.

Since my summertime sports love is baseball, I would like to see them get their season started so I could watch a few games before the Stanley Cup tourney begins, but that looks like a distant possibility at this time.

It wasn’t hard to see this shaping up though as most negotiations regarding a startup of play have had an aggressive edge to them. So be it. The league and the PA will not be doing themselves any favors. They are only making it easy for casual fans to say au revoir.

In other NHL news, word has gotten out that Las Vegas is a frontrunner to be one of the leagues two “hub” cities for the SC tourney.

This would indicate to me that an Eastern city would likely be up to be named as the other hub, thus eliminating the Wild and St. Paul as the other site.

If the Canadian quarantine protocol is still in place as the tourney nears I believe that would eliminate any Canadian cities as hub sites. But we’ll

see on that; the league seemed to be pretty keen on Toronto as a hub early on in the discussions and I would look for some more decisions to be made regarding that in as soon as the next 7-10 days, with league announcements to follow.

For the hometown Wild there isn’t a lot of recent news coming from St. Paul. There has been no info release regarding a permanent coaching replacement for Bruce Boudreau. I see that as being a clue that interim Coach Dean Evason has a decent opportunity to land the job, and that perhaps the team’s performance in the Cup tourney could be his final audition.

If that is the case, what if Deano “failed”? Would GM Bill Guerin start looking at other candidates?

If Billy G is worth his salt as a NHL GM he already has a short list in his pocket at all times.

And how much weight would the tourney performance carry at this point? Evason had the team playing some pretty decent hockey when the season was suspended, but that process actually began while Boudreau was still in the fold.

Last weekend in the Metro I ran into a young acquaintance that had played at Blaine, in the juniors and in college.

Some months later he is still fuming that Bruce was let go.

Well, I certainly wasn’t happy when it happened either but I have decided to reconcile it as part of the change at

46 June 18, 2020 DuluthReader.com

GM and move on.

Bruce is as good a man as you will find in the game and a hockey “lifer” at that.

My nephew Paul Jr. from Phoenix was also in town, and after spending several weeks quarantining as an “at risk” person, it was good to get out.

Between the three of us we had a solid four-hour hockey talk session, followed up with a pretty fantastic barbecue chicken dinner. The afternoon couldn’t have possibly been better.

Paul Jr. thinks his Coyotes could win their qualifying round against Nashville and I believe that, too. If the Yotes netminding is at its peak, they could prevail over the Saros-Rinne tandem. As a former goalie, the young chap from Blaine agreed, noting the struggles of Pekka Rinne this season.

We all believed the Wild could beat the Canucks as well. Experience can count for a lot in a playoff series, and the Wild have more of that than Vancouver. It’ll be interesting no matter what… PEACE

Sports can lead us above horror of racism The sports world, like every other facet of daily life, has been consumed by the unfolding tragedy of the death of George Floyd, the Minneapolis man who died right there on our television sets two weeks ago while having his final breaths by squeezed out of him by a Minneapolis policeman, whose knee forcefully pinned his neck to the pavement.

It almost seems like fate has conspired to make sure we saw it all graphically, just by the timing of the coronavirus pandemic that has swept the world and forced businesses, entertainment sources, and all sports to simply close down while we try to cope with the deadly virus. That has caused everyone to pay closer attention to newscasts and news stations, which, in turn, led directly to the horrifying reality of an unarmed black man in Minneapolis being accosted by four policemen and eventually pinned down with his hands handcuffed behind his back. The four policemen held him down and defenseless, with one of them, Derek Chauvin, taking charge by jamming his knee on the side of George’s neck. He held firmly for 8 minutes and 46 seconds, rejecting some pleas from fellow-officers and bystanders, as well as George’s pleading that he couldn’t breathe, as he took his final breath and died. For all the world to see.

The incident became the focal point for the city, the state, the nation, and the entire world, as a shocking testimony to police brutality and excessive use of physical force that has become a sickening trend in the relationship between mostly-armed white policemen and mostly-unarmed black citizens.

The sorrow and disgust that has swept over us has been something we’ve grown shockingly accustomed to in recent years, although this one was different. Like almost all the others, the police report said the victim

SPORTS JOHN GILBERT

One of three billboards that were in Duluth in 2010. was “resisting arrest,” but this time a courageous 17-year-old girl captured the entire drama on her cell phone video, proving conclusively there was nothing resembling resisting arrest.

Turns out, when the police report claims resisting arrest, it’s a major cop-out, so to speak, that allows, by definition, the policemen to use as much force for as long as they feel it’s necessary. It is a license for the most macho and aggressive of cops to go crazy on their victims. Maybe they are over-aggressive to begin with, maybe they want to show how tough they are and they can show it more readily if armed with a handgun and a baton.

Whatever, it is just one of the elements of our society that needs to be changed. And it appears that the widespread reaction of protests that often became costly with damage, looting and fires, in cities all across the country, makes this time different.

Change may be coming, this time.

Change has to be coming, this time.

We have been living under the cloak of racism all of our lives, from the days of settlers trying to exterminate Native Americans, to the slavery issue that led to the Civil War, where the Confederacy wanted to maintain slavery and the Union side of the North striving to make everyone free.

We also know, of course, that it never really made everyone free. The white power base still stifles and controls Native Americans, and prevents African-Americans from attaining anything close to equality of education, job potential, lifestyle, and even freedom to live where they’d like.

It is the world of sports, ironically, that affords the closest thing to equality and the recognition of potential for all races, and while politicians wrangle over how to revise and retrain police departments and attitudes, we can patiently await the resumption of sports to lead the way.

As a kid growing up in Duluth, we rarely saw any blacks on our sports teams or in our schools. I remember one older black kid who was a great running back in high school. In our junior high class at Washington, we had a lanky, athletic black kid named Duane Dew in my homeroom, where we also had another white kid who was a good back-alley basketball player.

I was a timid little guy, but I could shoot with great accuracy from the corners. The other two would carry our attack, and if they ever got stymied, they’d throw it to me in the corner and I’d drill a shot. We won the entire homeroom basketball tournament championship, to everyone’s amazement.

Transferring from UMD to the University of Minnesota six years later, it was impressive to watch Sandy Stephens at quarterback, and Bobby Bell and Carl Eller play defense, and I was too naive, or just unaware, to realize they were the breakthrough first black athletes Murray Warmath imported from the South. The Gophers had a strong basketball team too, and I was particularly interested because

DuluthReader.com

Terry Kunze, also from Duluth Central, brought his state championship form to college. The Gophers also had a big kid named Mel Northway at center, and they also had three black kids — Lou Hudson, Don Yates and Archie Clark — who came in and gave the team an outstanding starting five.

Again, I was too naive at the time to realize those were the first three black basketball players recruited to Minnesota by legendary coach John Kundla. I got to know Clark much better because in the summer, I had been lured to play Park National baseball for a team, and the manager also recruited Clark to play, so we were teammates. It was a lot of fun, and I remember it vividly. When he became a star in the NBA, I always figured I might run into him, and I might have, if I hadn’t become so consumed by hockey.

Think how pro sports and college sports have evolved since the 1960s.

These days, a black athlete might still undergo racism and subtle types of discrimination, but they also are revered and held up high by sports fans of all colors. Same with football, where speedy running backs, receivers and great physical specimens in the line are almost all black college stars.

Quarterbacks are more rare, but Russell Wilson is my favorite, and look around at the expanding world that includes Pat Mahomes and Colin Kaepernick.

Oops! That’s right. Kaepernick, who is black, had the audacity to kneel down during the National Anthem while starting at quarterback for the San Francisco 49ers. That shocked us all, and he was either supported or scorned throughout the country.

The insults won, and he has been blacklisted by a league that could clearly still profit by his talent.

Even Kaepernick seems to have a chance again, in the aftermath of all the tributes and heartfelt apologies coming from every class of bight up to and including the NFL hierarchy.

You can salute the flag and the anthem to show your patriotism, but it’s not mandatory, and you also can express your feeling for social inequality by taking a knee.

The predominant black players in the NBA are offset by the still-rare black players amid the white dominated NHL. But in both cases, they are exalted, compared to the average citizen. Soccer, too, is well integrated in most countries.

In fact, as we get ready to resume pro sports, even in stadiums bereft of fans, we can only imagine how things might have played out differently if Chauvin, the cop being tried for second-degree murder, and George, the 6-foot-6 black victim, had their confrontation in sports. Let’s see George go up for a lob pass or a rebound while Chauvin, without his gun, baton and backup, went up to defend.

Better yet, if they played on the same baseball team and Chauvin was a second baseman who hits .213 and bats ninth, while George hits 40 home runs and bats clean-up. Which of them, in that case, would get more respect from the fans, and the management. Ah, if only…

were well-behaved, and the police were too. We hope what happened in Minneapolis can affect us positively.

But we can’t be sure.

When we first moved back to Duluth,, almost 20 years ago now, there was an interesting campaign where a couple of billboards were strategically placed in Duluth, and read: “It’s hard to see racism when you’re white.” I thought it was a thought-provoking commentary. True, those of us who are white tend to dismiss racism accusations because we can’t ever imagine what people of color go through. Unless we could walk a mile in their moccasins, as they say, we never will be as sensitive to it. But the sign was great for stimulating thought.

Unfortunately, some folks were outraged by the sign. We don’t have any racism, I could almost hear them say. And the billboards came down.

Maybe it’s time to put them up again, to free us to do a little thinking.

The reality is harshly different, of course. The nationwide, and worldwide, protests also touched down in Duluth, although the protesters 1093

When bicycles ruled the road In the 1890s, after bicycles became more comfortable and affordable, bicycling swept the nation, Minnesota included. Minnesotans who embraced bicycling at this time helped lay the groundwork for a number of lasting changes in American society, from shorter skirts to better roads.

Early versions of what we now call the bicycle were invented and used in Europe from the seventeenth century.

However, the modern bicycle, first known as the “safety,” was not created until the 1880s. The safety bicycle got its name because it was safer to ride than its immediate predecessor, a by high-wheeled bicycle MINNESOTA called the HISTORICAL “ordinary.”

Ordinary SOCIETY bicycles were usually very heavy, since they were made of wood with solid rubber wheels. Their design, with one large front wheel and one small back one, caused them to be fairly unstable, and they sent many riders flying forward over the handlebars at even the slightest bump or hole in the road.

By contrast, the safety bicycle had two wheels of equal size, and it tended to be more stable and easier to brake.

Its frame also was much lighter, as it was made of hollow steel tubing.

Its wheels were lighter, too; they had pneumatic tires—hollow rubber tires with an inflated tube inside. These tires made for a much more comfortable ride, protecting the rider from the rough roads common at the time.

The new design of the bicycle made it increasingly popular. So did a drop in price. In the 1880s, the selling price of ordinary bicycles averaged $100 to $150, about six months’ pay at the time.

Safety bicycles started at a similar price, but their price dropped through the 1890s, until bicycle sellers in Minneapolis in 1898 could advertise basic models for sale at thirty dollars.

The popularity of bicycles led to changes in society. People were more mobile because of bicycles; they could get out into the countryside or travel more easily. Bicycles also provided exercise, and both casual riding and bicycle racing became common.

MINN HISTORY

Communities across the state built tracks for bicyclists to race on, and the races were well attended during the mid-1890s.

Safety bicycles provided particular freedom to women. Before bicycles, women could go few places without a chaperone, but with bicycles, they could get around on their own, under their own power. In addition, bicycle clothing, with its more functional and relaxed design, caused a dress revolution for women.

As their numbers grew, bicyclists became a political force. In Minnesota and elsewhere, one of their primary concerns was improving roads. Most roads in the state were dirt tracks, with ruts worn in them by horses and carts. City roads often were no better.

Bicyclists could only ride in the ruts, which caused conflicts with others using the road. Up on the sidewalks, bicyclists got in the way of pedestrians.

50 March 26, 2020 DuluthReader.com 50 June 18, 2020 DuluthReader.com

So bicyclists began campaigning for better roads for everyone and dedicated bicycle paths. They hoped these would lessen conflicts and enable more enjoyable riding. Bicyclists also made some of the first road maps, to guide riders along the best routes. The good roads movement and further development of road maps both were taken up by automobile enthusiasts in the 20th century, but they started with bicyclists in the 19th century.

The automobile ended the mass popularity of the bicycle in Minnesota and the rest of the country.

Cars became publicly available in the 1890s, first appealing to a niche market, as early bicycles had, and then to the general public after 1900, with further refinements and drops in purchase price. Bicycles remained popular but in lesser numbers and without the same impact as they had during the 1890s.

Thanks for hanging on with us An 88-year-old woman recently called The Reader office. She wanted to thank us for being here.

She bemoaned the recent death of The Budgeteer and the greatly diminished presence of the once dominating daily Duluth News Tribune.

“So thank you for being there,” she said.

After singing the praises of The Reader, she said, “I’m going to send something anonymously. It won’t be much.”

“Well, thank you for that, and thank you for reading,” The Reader receptionist said.

“It won’t be much,” she repeated.

“That’s OK,” the receptionist said, adding ,“And congratulations for making it to 88,” which caused the woman to laugh.

“And I’m still in good shape,” she said.

“I can tell,” the receptionist said.

In a short time, the conversation ended and both parties went back to their own business, but the receptionist kept thinking of the kind and grateful woman who felt compelled to call with an attaboy to The Reader for weathering the apocalyptic storm that has capsized so many print outlets.

Colleagues in both the mainstream and alternative press have seen doors close, some for good, and jobs lost, also possibly for good, at a staggering rate not seen in modern times.

Even as we slowly crawl out of our shells to resume life as we used to know it, some newspapers will not be back. And the world, as someone interviewed for this issue of The Reader said on the subject, we’re all going to be dumber for it.

But we’re still here. And the lady who called was glad to be along for the ride with The Reader.

The conversation also struck the receptionist because the office radio was tuned to KUMD, and it was going through its end-of-the-fiscal-year fundraiser, focusing on community at a time when it’s needed, and how the always eclectic and interesting music played on KUMD fosters community.

The receptionist was a founding

DuluthReader.com DuluthReader.com

member of the Wednesday Evening Leinenkugel Jazz Club, which began as a few friends gathering on a Wednesday evening to listen to the jazz program on KUMD while drinking Leinie’s, and that informal thing grew into a regular happening in Superior at the longlost and much lamented Tony’s Cabaret.

So, yes, the idea of KUMD and community resonates.

And if the receptionist ever wondered if The Reader also resonates with its community, there was no need, for the 88-year-old woman who called was a perfect illustration of the continued appreciation many people still have for print.

Alas, we have been forced by circumstances beyond our control to offer our free print edition every other week instead of weekly, and during the off-print weeks we produce a virtual-only edition in what most everyone who has experienced it quickly decides is pretty cool for a non-print edition.

You can actually flip the virtual pages at your leisure, in a full screen image if you so choose.

Check it out at readerduluth. com.

We are also feeling an urgency to return to our weekly print schedule as industry colleagues wither away or greatly reduce their offerings, and as our advertisers slowly and safely begin to open their doors.

While our advertising has picked up slightly, it remains greatly reduced, which affects our ability to return to a weekly schedule. It’s the circle of life as we now know it.

While we hate to say it, we can still use the financial help that all the people listed in the ad to the right have provided to The Reader since this pandemic ordeal began.

We still need your help. Thanks to you if you can help us on this journey.

And don’t forget to support the advertisers who have continued to support us through this, and the ones who are coming back to business as usual.

Questionable judgment

Why Not?

The 95-year-old Giant Dipper wooden roller coaster at Belmont Park in Mission Beach, California, is a National Historic Landmark, but it, along with all of the other rides in the park, has been closed to riders since March. To keep it in good repair and ready for reopening, the coaster must run 12 times every day.

Park mechanics hit upon an idea: They loaded the coaster’s 24 seats with giant plush animals from the park’s midway games prize stash.

“People are loving it,” Steve Thomas, the park’s general manager, told The San Diego Union-Tribune. “We’ve seen tons of videos and pictures that people have been posting online.”

Thomas said when the coaster reopens, he may keep the furry riders on board to help with social distancing rules. [San Diego UnionTribune, 6/2/2020]

Least competent criminal

An unnamed 29-year-old man in Berlin, Germany, triggered alarms at a supermarket on June 5 when he tried to leave without paying for $5.65 in merchandise. The Associated Press reported that police had little trouble apprehending the man because, in his hurry escape, he left his 8-year-old son behind. Not only did the burglar’s “accessory” help police identify him, but the thief fell down as he was escaping and ended up in the hospital. [Associate Press via Norfolk Daily News, 6/8/2020]

Can’t possibly be true

The Daily Star reports that a 30-year-old man turned up at Zhaoqing First People’s Hospital in Guangdong, China, on June 3 suffering from abdominal pain.

Doctors performed a series of scans before discovering a freshwater fish

in the man’s large intestine, the presence of which he explained by saying he had accidently sat on it.

“Do you think I’m an idiot?” one of the doctors replied. The spiny fins of the tilapia had caused ruptures in the man’s intestine and had to be removed through his abdomen by surgery. [Daily Star, 6/8/2020]

The entrepreneurial spirit

Canadian Glen Richard Mousseau’s adventure with Michigan law enforcement began on May 10, when he was arrested in St. Clair County driving a U-Haul truck and in possession of $97,000. He cooperated with authorities, admitting he was the owner of a submarine seized by the Border Patrol April 23 and he had been using it to ferry drugs between Michigan and Ontario, Canada.

Mlive.com reported Mousseau agreed to await the investigation’s outcome in a local hotel, but on May 22, federal agents said he had absconded, leaving behind five phones, a laptop and a diving suit. On June 5, Border Patrol officers observed packages thrown into the Detroit River from a vessel entering U.S. waters and found Mousseau unconscious in the water with 265 pounds of marijuana tethered to him with a tow strap. He’s being held on charges of smuggling and possession of a controlled substance. [mlive.com, 6/8/2020]

Shaun Michaelsen, 41, told police in Jupiter, Florida, he was only trying to be a “cool father” when he let a friend’s 12-year-old daughter drive his Jeep on June 8. Officer Craig Yochum saw the Jeep make an illegal U-turn and speed away, the Associated Press reported, so he followed as the vehicle hit speeds of 85 mph in a 45 mph zone. The underage driver told Yochum that Michaelson, who admitted he had been drinking, told her to drive fast. He was arrested and is being held in the Palm Beach County Jail.

Overreaction

Richland County (South Carolina) sheriff’s officers are searching for a man and woman who held a Pizza Hut manager at gunpoint on May 29 in Columbia – because they didn’t receive the 2-liter bottle of Pepsi they had ordered for delivery with their pie. The manager told WIS the couple entered the restaurant complaining about the delivery, then came behind the counter and as the man held out a gun, the woman removed a bottle of Pepsi from the cooler. Once the goods were in hand, the man put his gun away, and they left the store.

Everyone’s a critic

Saxophonist Christian Beck, 50, has been treating his neighbors to two hours of music from his front porch in Sible Hedingham, England, every Saturday during the

coronavirus lockdown. Passersby would stop and listen, residents of Forest Home care facility nearby were particular fans, and money has been raised for charity through donations people have left. But Beck told the Daily Gazette his Saturday concerts will come to an end on June 13 after a letter from the Braintree Council informed him that an official noise complaint has been lodged against him. “Playing the saxophone is like a therapy for me ... and it’s upsetting to think that someone complained,” Beck said. “I didn’t want to go against anyone so I’m calling it a day.” [Daily Gazette, 6/11/2020]

Police Report

• Angel Castro, 39, was arrested in Schenectady, New York, on June 9 after police found him and a missing golf course beverage cart at the Kelsey Commons apartment complex.

Police spokesman Sgt. Nick Mannix told The Daily Gazette a worker at the Stadium Golf Club had driven the beverage cart up to the clubhouse to restock it with drinks when the suspect jumped inside and took off. Castro was charged with felony grand larceny. [The Daily Gazette, 6/9/2020] • Mark Alan Johnson, 67, of Rice Lake, Wisconsin, was sentenced June 3 to five years in state prison following his 15th arrest for drunken driving. Most recently he was arrested in November after steering his pickup into a ditch. At the time, his license had been revoked, and his blood alcohol content was almost twice the legal limit. His attorney, Renee Taber, noted that Johnson is a “likable, down-to-earth, blue-collar man,” but his “downfall is that he is an alcoholic.”

New books on the shelf Memoir Shelf Ridge Stories Gary Jones Wisconsin Historical Society Press Raised on a small dairy farm in the Driftless area of Wisconsin in the mid-20th century, Gary Jones gets real about his rural roots in the pages of Ridge Stories: Herding Hens, Powdering Pigs, and Other Recollections from a Boyhood in the Driftless.

Ridge Stories is a collection of interrelated stories in which Jones writes with plainspoken warmth and irreverence about farm, family, and folks on the ridge. His readers will meet Gramp Jones, whose oversized overalls saved him from losing a chunk of flesh to an irate sow; the young one-roomschool teacher who helped the kids make sled jumps at recess; Charlotte, the lawn-mowing sheep who once ended up in the living room; Victor the pig-cutter, who learned his trade from folk tradition rather than vet school; and other colorful characters of the ridge.

Often humorous and occasionally touching, Jones’s essays paint a vivid picture that will entertain city and country folk alike. A delightfully entertaining memoir of life growing up in the Driftless area of Wisconsin, author Gary Jones reveals a natural talent for the kind of entertaining storytelling that will leave the reader wanting more and eagerly awaiting the next collection of his tales.

Jones has written professionally as a freelancer since the 1970s, publishing in the Milwaukee Journal, Milwaukee Sentinel, Milwaukee Magazine and Door County Living magazine and the Peninsula Pulse weekly newspaper in Door County.

Farm Girl: A Wisconsin Memoir Beuna Coburn Carlson University of Wisconsin Press When Beuna “Bunny” Coburn was growing up, neighbors came together in times of hardship. No matter the trouble, they faced it with determination, camaraderie, and resourcefulness. In the midst of the Great Depression, despite record-breaking heat and crop failure, growing up on the family farm was nevertheless filled with bucolic pleasures.

Farm Girl is her loving and autobiographical tribute to the gently rolling hills of western Wisconsin.

With an inviting and fluid voice, she

Longtime Doors confidante Harvey Kubernik shares stories of the legendary band in The Doors Summer’s Gone.

shares with her readers intimate moments of happiness from her childhood: collecting butternuts for homemade maple candy, watching her father read by the flickering light of a kerosene lamp, and the joy of finding a juicy orange at the bottom of a Christmas stocking. Underlying each vignette is the courage of a strong family surviving adversity and finding comfort in one another.

Farm Girl is a memoir that readers can dip in and out of with pleasure.

Strange Hotel Eimear McBridge Farrar, Straus & Giroux A nameless woman enters a hotel room. She’s been here once before. In the years since, the room hasn’t changed, but she has. Forever caught between check-in and checkout, she will go on to occupy other hotel rooms.

From Avignon to Oslo, Auckland to Austin, each hotel room is as anonymous as the last but bound by rules of her choosing. There, amid the detritus of her travels, the matchbooks, cigarettes, keys and room-service wine, she negotiates with her memories, with the men she sometimes meets, with the cliches invented to aggravate middle-aged women, with those she has lost or left behind – and with what it might mean to return home.

A deftly crafted novel by an novelist who is a master of narrative driven storytelling, Eimear McBride’s Strange Hotel is one of those truly memorable noir novels of dark humor, the urgency of human desire, and unexpected plot twists and turns.

Mystery/Suspense Shelf Rigged D. P. Lyle Oceanview Publishing

First loves are never forgotten. Ever.

Certainly not for Tommy “Pancake” Jeffers. His first-kiss, sixth-grade love, Emily, who he has not seen since grammar school, is sliding toward divorce in the artsy Gulf Coast town of Fairhope, Alabama. Longly Investigations has been charged with looking into the finances involved.

When Emily doesn’t appear for their nervously anticipated meeting, Pancake’s radar goes on high alert. Her body, along with that of Jason - (one of two guys she has been dating) is found murdered, execution-style, Pancake calls in Jake, Nicole, and Ray. Who would have done this? Could it be the soon-to-be ex, who has an ironclad alibi; the other guy Emily was seeing – jealousy being a motive for harm; or do the drugs found in Jason’s pocket indicate a drug-related hit?

That world yields a host of suspects.

As they peel back the layers of this idyllic community, dark secrets come to light and convoluted motives and methods of murder are revealed.

A deftly crafted novel by a master of the suspense/thriller genre, Rigged by D. P. Lyle offers his readers a narrativedriven murder mystery laced with unexpected twists and turns, with traces of dark humor and inherently fascinating characters.

A scant Barbara Stanwyck collection Stanwyck gets lost in the role as the 100-year-old Hannah, telling her story to a young journalist (K.T. Stevens).

Stanwyck’s tour-de-force performance creates a strong-willed and independent-minded woman, at least within the confines of the late 19th century frontier life. 4/5 The Bride Wore Boots: A perfect vehicle for Stanwyck’s talents as a physical comedian, this screwball comedy

Internes Can’t Take Money: This 1937 melodrama/thriller is actually more of a Joel McCrea vehicle than a Barbara Stanwyck one. This is the first film in a franchise that follows the adventures of Dr. Kildare (McCrea), a headstrong and compassionate man who helps unfortunates in need. Here, Kildare puts his life in line as he assists a repentant woman with a sordid past (Stanwyck) locate her long lost child. The woman’s husband was a bank robber, and after one of his jobs went south, a bunch of gangsters kidnapped by her infant and placed her in an orphanage. Only a handful of the mobsters know the location of the child. That’s where Dr. Kildare comes in to save the day. Stanwyck delivers an emotionally impactful performance with the limited screen time she’s given. 2/5 The Great Man’s Lady: Director William Wellman (A Star is Born) manages to squeeze in quite an epic life story in this wistful melodrama about Hannah (Stanwyck), a dreamer and romantic who becomes embroiled between the love of two men; the ambitious Ethan (Joel McCrea), and the smarmy Steely (Brian Donlevy).

The narrative’s framing device follows a group of journalists in thenpresent 1942 trying to locate Hannah and ask her about her supposed marriage to Ethan, who apparently founded the very city they’re living in.

The only problem is that her Civil War historian husband (Robert Cummings) hates the darn animals. This conflict between the couple intensifies to the point of divorce, as the husband begins to consider infidelity after such “disobedient” behavior from his wife.

well received screwball comedies at the time, but Stanwyck’s cocksure attitude and headstrong performance tips the charisma and power to her character’s side. 3/5 Kino’s selection showcases Stanwyck’s versatility and inherent charm.

The duality of Gemini: May 20-June 20 Gemini is the quintessential human sign, for it seems to sum up qualities that are the distinguishing hallmarks of the human race – intelligence (Gemini is an air sign), adaptability (Gemini is a mutable sign) and communicativeness (Gemini is ruled by Mercury).

Gemini people don’t just sit back and watch the world go by They are curious about everything and must be part of the busy scene. If all the world’s a stage, Gemini is the actor on that stage – think Marilyn Monroe, Clint Eastwood and Bob Hope (all Geminis).

Unlike Leo, who wants to be the star, Gemini wants to play all the parts, direct, produce and be the stagehand!

Gemini is the epitome of the split personality: bright, communicative and sociable one minute; distracted and offhand the next. That’s not to say all Geminis are Jekyll-and-Hydes, but this sign embodies the duality of human nature the most. This explains the symbol of the Twins. Gemini must bridge the opposite within itself: light and dark, intuition and reason, the mind and the emotions, the spiritual and material.

As a classic example of this, I give you the Marquis de Sade (a Gemini).

Known for his libertine sexuality, he of course, couldn’t leave it there. He expanded into depraved, erotic works, blatant pornography and sexual fantasy with an emphasis on immorality and sadism – sorta sounds like by a Catholic priest. Funny, he ever wrote blasphemy against that very church and its depravity as well.

Another great dual personality Gemini is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, the creator and writer of the Sherlock Holmes mysteries. Sherlock, who some say embodies all the Gemini traits of Doyle himself, helped to revolutionize the forensics field, bringing to light intuition and reason in a crime scene investigation. Holmes wrestles with his mind and his emotions and exemplifies the struggling Gemini nature, caught between worlds of logic and reason and feeling like he doesn’t belong.

Gemini’s fickle nature also tends to arouse unexpected anger in others, the depth of which Geminis often misjudge. A great example of this is George Bush, reviled and hated by many, misunderstood and demonized by the rest.

The internet is, and was, ablaze with stories bout the man that were largely

“Gemini,” plate 18 in Urania’s Mirror, a set of celestial cards accompanied

by A familiar treatise on astronomy by Jehoshaphat Aspin, 1825.

untrue, and unresearched, but the notions stuck, because of his attitudes and demeanor, his cavalier nature and inability to express himself well to his detractors.

If George Bush were writing this next part, it would go something like this: “Geminators have the gift of gab.

They can sometimes be fast talkers and can easily pull the wool out of your eyeballs using their astute verbal trickification.” Poor George, a Gemini in training.

This Air sign is a free spirit trapped in the physical world. Marilyn Monroe embodied this fragility, this temporary impermanence. As if we all knew she wouldn’t be with us long. Same holds true of John F. Kennedy, a reformer, an idealist, a Gemini multitasker, eloquent and charming, a classic!

The eternal child is an apt description of the Gemini nature – think Gene Wilder and the Willy Wonka character.

“There is no life I know to compare with pure imagination.”

“We are the music makers...and we are the dreamers of dream – Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder).

Their positive thirst for knowledge and childlike curiosity keeps the Gemini young at heart even when they grow old. Bob Hope, the comedian, is a great example. Entertaining us for decades, still lampooning politics and our society’s idiosyncracies. Some Geminis remain childish throughout their lives, refusing to grow up and take responsibility for themselves. This can result in addictions and the feeling of being “stuck” in the past, the “glory” days, so to speak.

WHAT’S YOUR SIGN?

Judy Garland struggled with this her entire troubled career, ever stuck in the public’s vision of her as the dreamer Dorothy Gale in The Wizard of Oz. Gemini is the sign of relationships, and because they are born under the sign of the Twins, Geminis may spend their whole lives searching for a soul mate, never realizing that the person they are looking for is inside them.

This truly is the story of Dorothy.

All she needed to do was want to go home. This is the conundrum for this particular sign of the zodiac. Not ones to question their own motives, it often takes a difficult or painful experience to force them to look at and become

conscious of their own intentions. The challenge for Gemini is to combine their rational mind with their intuitive faculties, so that they are drawing to the full on all of their mental abilities.

Even though Sir Arthur Conan Doyle created Sherlock Holmes and revolutionized the field of crime scene investigations, he also believed in fairies. The Cottingley Fairy photographs involved in the infamous 1917 hoax caused Doyle to spend millions promoting fairies. He even wrote a book about them in 1921 called The Coming of the Fairies.

I close with that bit of information to let you know that the true Gemini is a complex individual, town between the duality of is nature – but what a beautiful humanity to that very being.

A scientists with a soul. Later...

What, no cruise refund after the pandemic?

Q: Viking Cruises is refusing to issue a total refund after canceling operations and promising refunds.

I need your help getting my Viking Cruise refund.

My wife and I paid $10,096 for a cruise and tour on the Viking Idi for April. When the coronavirus pandemic flared up, Viking informed me that it would allow postponement of our trip for up to two years.

In early March, I asked Viking if the trip had been canceled, and it said no.

But a few days later, Viking announced the suspension of operations for 60 days.

I immediately asked Viking for a full refund and got a rejection. I read a story that Viking was offering a full refund or a voucher for a future trip at 125 percent. But I had only been offered a future voucher at 100 percent.

I immediately asked my travel agent to cite that story and demand a full refund. As of today, there is no response from the cruise line. I think Viking is ignoring refund requests.

I’m retired. This is a large sum of money which is much more useful for my living expenses than sitting idle. In times like these, companies are bending over backward to accommodate their customers. Viking is holding my money ransom and shows utter disregard for keeping its word and corporate decency.

I want my Viking cruise refund — now. Please help.

Vincent Liu, Los Altos Hills, Calif.

A: Viking should fully refund your cruise. But does it have to? Technically, no. Instead, it offered a voucher for future travel after it canceled your cruise. It promised refunds later, when it suspended operations — but not to you.

This is a common problem during the pandemic. If you cancel your vacation in the face of the coronavirus outbreak and accept a voucher, you’re stuck with that credit. However, if the company cancels, it should offer a full refund. That’s true for most travel companies except for tour operators, which often have fine print in their contracts that allow them to keep your money. But I digress.

I wanted to say something about your argument for getting a refund. It’s perfectly reasonable to argue that you

don’t want to give Viking a microloan for up to two years. But the fact that you’re retired has no bearing on this case. No one should have to accept a two-year credit, regardless of their financial situation.

Still, something about your case is not sitting right with me. Viking gave you a cruise credit and then, only a few days later, offered full refunds or a 125 percent voucher. It just seems unfair even though technically Viking is allowed to do it.

Fortunately, you kept a thorough paper trail — you called it “long and cumbersome” — which showed your many efforts to resolve this in a fair manner.

In cases like this, you can always reach out to an executive at Viking.

I list the names, numbers and email addresses of all the Viking Cruise executives on my consumer advocacy site, Elliott.org.

I can’t make Viking refund your cruise because, as I already mentioned, it’s allowed to keep your money. But you have options. A polite appeal — which you’ve already tried — is a reasonable first step. You can also accept the vouchers as thousands of other passengers have. And then there’s the nuclear option — disputing the charges on your wife’s credit card and forcing Viking to refund your cruise.

You chose door number three. Your

bank promptly returned your money.

Q: I ordered furniture from IKEA in April during the lockdown. I had to choose the delivery option because IKEA wasn’t doing in-store pickups, for obvious reasons.

IKEA gave me a super far-out date of May 11. So I accepted it because these are difficult times and I wasn’t in a rush. I just wanted to take advantage of an online deal they had at the moment.

Fast forward to May 11th. I have had no email update on my delivery, no calls, no contact from IKEA whatsoever after the initial order confirmation.

When I look up my order on the website, there is no delivery or scheduling information. ’ve called several customer numbers and they all eventually hang up after declaring that there is no operator to take my call. The only email contact they have currently is for canceling orders, which I don’t want to do. I sent IKEA a direct message through Instagram in a desperate attempt to reach them. No response.

At this point, it feels like they just took my money and ran off like some highway bandit. I just want to get in contact with IKEA and find out the status of my order. I do not want to cancel, as I still want the products I purchased. I need a fixed delivery date and assurances that they will comply

with delivery sooner rather than later.

Can you help me?

Shaun Rodriguez, Miami A: IKEA should have responded to your many requests, regardless of the pandemic. And I have to say, this is not like IKEA at all. The company is known for its fast, efficient customer service — not for stonewalling its customers. Other companies have similar reputations to uphold.

You should receive an immediate confirmation from a company when you place an online order. After that, you can track the order through the confirmation number. It appears that IKEA charged your card but never sent you a confirmation. That’s a red flag.

During the coronavirus lockdown, a lot of businesses stopped answering their phones. That’s understandable when your employees can’t come to work. But if you’re still taking orders — and offering discounts to encourage more sales — it’s not unreasonable to expect an employee to take calls from its customers.

But the COVID-19 crisis was a once-ina-generation event, so the normal rules of business don’t apply.

If IKEA charged his credit card, can he get a refund?

You mentioned not having any IKEA contacts. I can help with that.

I publish the names, numbers and email addresses of the IKEA customer service contacts on my consumer advocacy site, Elliott.org. You could have followed up with one of these executives to find out the status of your order.

I checked with IKEA. It turns out you placed your order while the IKEA site was “experiencing technical difficulties.”

“This resulted in the order being placed into a status that prevented it from moving forward within our warehouse,” a representative told me.

“We’ve reached out to Shaun to see if he’d like to continue with his order or cancel it.”

Mercedes GLB can go economy or luxury

New Mercedes GLB 250 stirs up unruly Lake Superior waves. Photos by John Gilbert Deciding what vehicle to buy at a Mercedes-Benz dealership is a lot like making a menu selection at Arlo Guthrie’s iconic Alice’s Restaurant. The great line from the chorus – “You can get anything you want, at Alice’s Restaurant” – can be duplicated when looking over the delectable selections from Mercedes, which includes assorted cars and SUVs. The SUV world is running red-hot these days, and

something like half of all SUVs fall into the compact or small segment. That had to make it tough for Mercedes, that proud company from Stuttgart, Germany, that invented the first automobile back before the 20th century, by and remains greatly responsible for what has become the crazy automotive world. After establishing its plateau for luxury and class, it was one thing to branch into the large SUV

market, but quite different to build a compact utility vehicle.

But Mercedes has made the leap, and the 2020 GLB 250 is a remarkable example of what a company – a great company, at that – can do to command a slot in a segment that has to be out of its comfort zone.

Mercedes, of course, in its uncompromising way, creates an internal battle for supremacy with the GLB. There might be a question of how inexpensive can Mercedes make an SUV, or how expensive it dares make it.

Same with its size, can a compact SUV house three rows of seats with the

accommodations Mercedes is known for?

The GLB 250 checks all the boxes.

With larger SUVs like the GLS and GLE out there, the company also turns out the GLC, which won Motor Trend’s SUV of the Year for 2017, so the intramural targets were in place and meant Mer-cedes engineers didn’t need to look outside for competition, although it is plentiful.

At a glance, the GLB has smooth lines but with more of a blunt look to it, snub-nosed and fairly tall, which allows a lot of interior ingredients.

That includes a third-row of tempApril 23,2020 2020 8585 June 18,

Flashy interior adds sport to luxury, including under thigh extension. orary seats, which will probably spend most of their career folded down into a flat and convenient floor for storage.

The second row also folds down flat, while also sliding and reclining to add to the occupants’ comfort.

The 2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine performs well, and is part of a highly technical approach Mercedes has taken with the GLB. While other, larger Mercedes SUVs are built on a large-vehicle rear-drive platform, this one is built on a compact frontwheel-drive chassis, and the power of 221 horsepower and 258 foot-pounds of torque are applied via an 8-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the 4Matic all-wheel drive system operates normally through front-drive only, with the all-wheel-drive kicking in only when the system detects the tendency for the front wheels to spin.

You don’t feel all that mechanical operation, of course. It drives smoothly and its shifts are close to imperceptible, but right on, for keeping you in a proper power band.

Now we get to the price discrepancy.

The test GLB 250 had a base price of $38,600, and it comes equipped with a lot of convenient features: the 4Matic, automatic stop-start, keyless start as well as entry, power lift-gate, rain-sensing wipers, Bluetooth with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, LED head and tail lights, active assists for braking, antilock, electronic stability, rearview camera, black and red leather seats, Linden wood trim, and multiway power front buckets.

You could own this vehicle for a long

time with only those features and be a very happy traveler.

But now tell me which of the optional features you would gladly do without: Exclusive AMG sport steering wheel, panoramic roof, adjustable

damping suspension, Burmester audio system, wireless charging, 20-inch black alloy wheels, a Driver Assistance package with active braking assist, cross-traffic Distronic X braking, emergency assisted steering, blindspot assist, lane-changing alert, lanekeeping assist, and active assists for emergency stopping and steering.

Other options include parking assist, exterior ambient lighting and a navigation map that updates itself for changing road conditions.

That’s nearly $20,000 worth of optional equipment, but all of it has great value in enhancing safety or comfort or convenience – even though it boosts the sticker price up to $57,800.

Adding to the enjoyment of driving the GLB 250, paddle shifters allow manual overriding of the 8-speed, and the suspension adjusts to comfortable firmness.

Fuel economy is 23 miles per gallon city, 31 highway, and an average of 26 mpg. We found we got 28-32 even in city driving if we used the turbocharged power judiciously.

With its style and panache, the GLB will fit in well with its larger siblings in the Mercedes showroom, and more than most of the others, it can be bought as a “stripped down” economy

Tiny gearshift lever almost hides behind steering wheel paddle.

SUV, or as a sporty-luxury SUV that you have to pay more to obtain.

Maybe the best of both worlds.

From the rear, compact size hides roomy interior. Rear liftgate has power control for ease of hauling.
