Protesting against California’s vaccine mandate Knox Keranen The Triplicate

Demonstrators gathered outside Sutter Coast Hospital in Crescent City on Monday to protest the state’s vaccination mandate for healthcare workers. Last week, the California Department of Public Health became the first state public health department in the nation to mandate vaccines for health care workers, including those in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, clinics, doctor’s offices

and other places. According to the August 5 order, health care workers must show proof of vaccination against COVID-19 by Sept. 30 or get a medical or religious exemption. Anna Holmes is a nurse at Sutter Coast — she also was a co-organizer of the demonstration outside the hospital on Monday. “It’s not anti-vax, that’s not our purpose. Our purpose is that it’s a choice; to choose what you want put into your body,” said Holmes. Please see VACCINE, Page A9

Volunteers bring demolition derby to life Knox Keranen The Triplicate

After cancelling last year due to COVID-19, the Del Norte County Fair drew in huge crowds over the weekend. Some of the largest crowds came out for the Demolition Derby, Tuff Truck and pit bike races on Sunday. Tristan Smith, owner of Tallan’s Tires, has been helping to put on the auto events at the fair with his two brothers for the past seven years. Despite breaking an axle shaft during his lap, Smith also won this year’s Tuff Truck race with a time of

31 seconds. Nevertheless, Smith said he was more excited about how quickly a team of volunteers was able to put together the track at the rodeo arena. “A lot of people don’t know, we built this track right after the rodeo on Saturday. So, this track was built in less than one day,” said Smith. “It’s great to see the crowd, we just put it on for the spectators to have a show and everyone else has a blast doing it.” Other volunteers who helped out with auto events this year included Jager Stone, Jason Barholomew and Darren McCulloch.

Merkley continues fight to lower drug prices By DAVID RUPKALVIS The Triplicate

Several months after he announced a bill to lower the price of prescription drug costs, Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley believes he may have a way to get the bill through Congress. During a celebratory meeting

on the 56th anniversary of the day Medicare was signed into law, Merkley said his proposal to mandate drug companies only charge Americans what they charge in the other countries was not moving much in the Senate. “Not surprisingly, with their Army of lobbyists, my bill hasn’t made it very far yet,” Merkley

said. “But with the Build Back Better reconciliation, we are going to make one of the biggest investments in American families and take that on.” Merkley proposed legislation, the End Price Gouging for Medications Act, several months ago. The bill would require drug companies to charge Americans

no more than the average price charged in eight other countries. Merkley said the bill is needed because Americans often pay much more than individuals in other developed countries. “There is no reason why here in the United States peo-

For 18 months now, Superintendent Jeff Harris has led the Del Norte Unified School District through an ever-changing environment due to COVID-19. With the 202122 school year just around the bend, Harris said the district has learned one important lesson from the pandemic. “We learned not to trust when somebody says, ‘this is what you’re going to do,’ because we are always planning for the next worst thing,” said Harris. The head of Del Norte schools sat down with the Triplicate last week to discuss reopening and potential COVID-19 guidelines for the upcoming school year. But first, he described what the beginning of the pandemic — March 9, 2020 — was like for him. “I went down to Sacramento with a bunch of other county superintendents, we went to the governor’s conference room; he came out and he said, ‘there’s a cruise ship parked in the harbor, and there are some people who have COVID-19... But, I guarantee you, schools are not going to shut down. There’s nothing you guys have to worry about.’” “That same week, there was an executive order that said schools should be shutting down,” said Harris. Will students and staff be required to wear masks? “What we are looking at right now is, masks are required for all students when they’re indoors. Masks are required for all adults whenever there are students present. Outdoors, masks are currently optional. When students are gone, and we only have our staff left, only our unvaccinated staff will have to continue to wear masks.” Will vaccines be mandatory for staff? “We are not mandating vaccines for staff or students. The state has not yet passed a law that says we have to, and until the state does, we won’t.” “Staff members can self-certify whether or not they’ve been vaccinated. We are not collecting vaccine information from staff or from students.” How will testing work for students and staff? We are not required by the California Department of Public Health to provide surveillance (weekly) testing. For anybody who is symptomatic, we do have testing at our nurse’s station, or there are local testing facilities that they can go to, and we do ask that they get tested.” What happens when a student or staff member tests positive for COVID-19?

Middle school auditorium gets a facelift A2  |  FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 2021

Knox Keranen The Triplicate

A 92-year-old middle school in Crescent City is getting an upgrade to its auditorium, including new seats, floors and windows. The nearly-completed facelift to the Crescent Elk Middle School auditorium also includes new lights, fresh paint and two high-quality cameras — so events held there can be live streamed. The upgrade was possible thanks to a $150,000 donation from the Nick and Lisa Rail foundation, which was then matched by funds from the Del Norte Unified School District. Nick Rail, an alumnus of Del Norte schools, said he hopes the upgrade will provide a premium experience for future performers and attendee, during a May school board meeting. “My wife Lisa and I are beyond excited with the collaboration of the community and the school district,” said Rail. Jeff Harris, superintendent of Del Norte Unified School District, said the district is grateful for the upgrade, as the auditorium was beginning to show

its age, and there are not many other venues for the creative arts in the area. “The bottom of the wall was peeling, the plaster was pitted, the windows were single-pane and not very energy efficient,” said Harris. “There are very few places in the county where you could gather people together. Well, this is kind of a community center.” Harris said the donation from the Rails transformed what was initially a five-year project, into an 18-month project. The district is planning to auction off the old cast-iron seats, which were recently removed. A grand reopening ceremony for the updated auditorium is tentatively scheduled for the end of September. Looking ahead, Harris said the district and the Nick and Lisa Rail Foundation are moving forward with plans for a proposed $20 million performing arts center near the high school, which will seat about 1,000 people. Harris said the district’s goal is to complete construction by 2027-2028.

ple should be paying 2.5 times more for prescription drugs or 3.5 times more for name-brand drugs than the rest of the world,” Merkley said. “Sixty percent of all adult Americans use prescription drugs and out of all the millions, eight out of 10 say the cost is completely unreasonable.” Merkley said the average American spends $1,200 a year on prescription drugs, but in many cases those are the lucky ones. He told a story of an elderly woman in Hillsboro who uses an inhaler to breathe. When her insurance company changed how it labeled the drug, her cost soared to $500 a month. As a senior on a fixed income, she simply did not have $6,000 a year for the inhaler. “We need to make sure in the bill we give Medicare

the authority to negotiate directly with pharmaceutical companies,” Merkley said. “That’s what other countries do. It’s time to change the situation where Americans are being ripped off and gouged. This moment, with this reconciliation bill, let’s drive the change through.” Merkley was joined by Lee Saunders, the president of American Federation of State County Municipal Employees, the largest public sector union in the nation. Saunders agreed it was time to make changes to improve the healthcare system. “This 56th anniversary of Medicare is more than a celebration,” Saunders said. “It has got to be a call to action. A call to action to expand, improve and modernize the program. These costs are rising faster than any other American product or service, far beyond the rate of inflation. We all know the reason why. Big pharma has a monopoly power to set their own pric-

es and keep rising them up and gouging anytime they want. There is not enforcement law to stop them, and the pandemic slow them down in the slightest.” Saunders said it is time for our elected representatives to act to help their constituents. “This is a crisis like the one we faced in this country before Medicare was passed,” Saunders

said. “Congress must act now. We need legislation that lowers drug prices for everyone.” Merkley said he has heard the argument that Americans pay more because pharmaceutical companies invest heavily in creating new medicines that save lives. But he said that argument holds no weight. “First, the funding

for research is primarily funded by us, the taxpayers,” Merkley said. “They can raise the same amount of money by raising their prices in other countries a little and lowering the prices here. Third, look at what they’re spending on advertising. It completely swamps what they’re spending on research.” Health Care for America

Now hosted the meeting, and Margarida Jorge, their executive director, said it is time to act. “We have such a tremendous, many are calling it a once-in-a-generational opportunity, to really move in a different direction and star really expanding services, and making Medicare more efficient,” Jorge said.

Two Western states act to control methane By Tim Lydon

New Mexico, the third-ranking U.S. oil producer, has moved to curtail methane pollution from the oil and gas industry, moving it closer to neighboring Colorado’s leadership. Methane is a dangerous greenhouse gas that contributes to climate change and also damages human health. With the United States among the world’s top methane polluters, and the Biden administration promising tighter nationwide rules, these two Western states set a bar for other states to follow. For decades, the oil and gas industry has freely discharged the colorless pollutant from tens of thousands of wells as a cost-savings measure. Then this March, New Mexico banned the wasteful venting and flaring of natural gas, which is comprised almost entirely of methane. New Mexico is only the third state, after Colorado and Alaska, to ban the practice. This May, New Mexico also proposed a final rule to staunch leaking of methane from across the state’s oil and gas supply chain, which includes part of the mammoth Permian Basin it shares with Texas. The leaking occurs at well pads, pipelines, compressors, storage facilities and more. It’s a system-wide problem that generates methane plumes large enough to detect from space. The proposed rule on leaking, now up for public comment, improves on a December draft that offered broad loopholes. When it’s made final, it will require regular inspection and repair of leaky equipment, which today goes largely unmitigated as yet another industry cost-savings measure. The state effort means

New Mexico is catching up with Colorado. In 2014, Colorado became the first state to regulate methane and has twice strengthened its original rule. Colorado has also modernized its oil and gas regulatory agency’s mission so that it includes safeguarding public health. And it is reworking oil and gas bonding requirements so taxpayers don’t get burdened with plugging leaky “orphan wells” abandoned by producers. Colorado’s rules were a model for the first national methane regulations, implemented under President Obama in 2016. Unfortunately, the Trump administration dismantled those rules. Controlling methane is a climate imperative. Because the gas has 80 times the heat-trapping potential of carbon dioxide, it’s a potent driver of climate change. NASA says it has fueled a whopping 25 percent of the human-caused global warming that today increasingly jeopardizes Western water, agriculture and recreation. Research also shows that methane is entering the atmosphere from sources such as wetlands or thawing permafrost. In the latter, warming tied to methane begets more methane. It is the ominous type of feedback loop that global warming alarmists have warned us about for decades. But the good news is that methane only survives in the atmosphere for about 10 years, unlike the centuries-long lifespan of carbon dioxide. Consequently, methane rules today could produce swift returns on climate as the world grapples with the harder problem of carbon dioxide. But methane and associated pollutants also contribute to harmful ground-level ozone, which is linked to premature birth, respiratory

sickness and other illnesses. New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham made this part of her campaign for regulation, pointing out that poor air quality disproportionately harms poor communities. That concern helped build support from indigenous and other groups, outweighing fears that new regulations would detract from drilling royalties, which provide over a third of New Mexico’s revenue for education, health and other services. Part of the New Mexico governor’s strategy in winning support for methane control was focusing on fiscal accountability. Venting, flaring, and leaking - all monumentally wasteful practices - send an estimated $43 million in potential state revenue into New Mexico’s thin air every year. At the national level, President Biden campaigned on restoring federal methane regulations rolled back under Trump. Biden issued executive orders on his first day in office that set a September goal for proposing a new strategy. Crafting new federal rules are expected to take years, but New Mexico and Colorado now offer strong examples. By applying rules to both new and existing oil and gas infrastructure, they exceed the original Obama regulations, which only addressed new permits. Today, Western states, along with heavy oil producers Texas and North Dakota, offer only a patchwork of tax incentives and voluntary targets. Limited rules, however, often tilt in industry’s favor. Now, with fossil fuel production ramping back up and global temperatures rising, New Mexico and Colorado show that tougher regulations are the way to go.

DEAR ABBY By Abigail Van Buren

RETIREMENT HASN’T CHANGED COUPLE’S LONG-TERM ROUTINE DEAR ABBY: My husband retired a few months ago. I was a stay-at-home mom for most of our married life but have worked part time for several years. I always took care of all the household chores because he supported us financially. Now he’s retired, and nothing has changed. I’m still doing all the cooking, cleaning, laundry, taking care of the business matters and working part time. Although I have always done whatever it takes to keep the peace, I am becoming increasingly resentful. I don’t know how to break this pattern. I’ve never had the nerve to speak up and express my anger or frustration for fear of getting into a huge fight. Can you give me any advice to help me get out of this trap I’ve built for myself? -- STUCK IN CALIFORNIA DEAR STUCK: Your husband isn’t a mind reader. Ending your silence is the way out of the “trap.” It is what has given him license. If necessary, HAVE that “huge fight.” It may be the answer to a more equitable sharing of responsibilities. But if it isn’t, then it’s time for counseling -- to not only help you better communicate, but also, if necessary, mediate. DEAR ABBY: I have been divorced less than a year, and while I wasn’t expecting to rush into a relationship, I have met someone I really like, and he treats me so well. The problem is I haven’t yet told my children, and while speaking with my 13-year-old son, he told me he would run away if I was ever with anyone except his dad. He also said he didn’t care if I was happy or not. I don’t want to hurt -- or worse, lose -- my son.

He refuses to talk to a counselor. How do I move on and get my son to accept this situation? -- MOVING FORWARD IN CONNECTICUT DEAR MOVING FORWARD: Do you really intend to allow a 13-year-old to dictate how you live the rest of your life? Because he refuses to talk with a counselor doesn’t mean you shouldn’t do it for help in strengthening your backbone. Your son’s feelings may change once his father starts having romantic relationships -- if he hasn’t already. Nowhere in your letter did you mention that the person you are seeing has asked for a permanent commitment, so you have lots of time. Live your life. Continue to explore where things are going. When your son is older and his hormones kick in, he may mellow. DEAR ABBY: What does an invited guest do when their hosts get into one or more verbal screaming fights in front of them? Leave the room? Exit completely? I was raised that folks use “company manners” when guests were present. -BAFFLED IN INDIANA DEAR BAFFLED: If the hosts’ behavior makes you uncomfortable, the prudent thing would be to exit the gathering entirely. No rule of etiquette decrees that you must stick around and be the unwilling audience for their drama. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

In Defense of Landlords By Thomas L. Knapp

As the U.S. Centers for Disease Control moves to extend a federal eviction moratorium that (including its original CARES Act version) has now been in place for most of 18 months and that President Joe Biden himself concedes is “not likely to pass constitutional muster,” most of the public rhetoric and advocacy boils down to “what about the tenants?” That’s understandable. Nobody - at least nobody who’s ever faced the prospect of homelessness and has any heart at all - wants to see tenants kicked to the curb with nowhere to go, especially tenants who, through no fault of their own, have been pushed into a financial corner by nearly a year-and-a-half of lockdowns, business closures and other fallout from the COVID-19 pandemic. Much less often asked, though, is the question “what about the landlords?” When that question does come up (and it’s coming up in the courts again as the National Apartment Association and other landlord groups sue for compensation pursuant to the Fifth Amendment’s “takings” clause) one can almost literally hear the world’s smallest violin tuning up in the background. I’m aware of, and reasonably well versed in, the centuries-long arguments over the ethics of rent and of property in land. I don’t aim to settle those arguments here. Given the long history of land ownership and home/apartment rental in the United States, though, it seems to me that the plaintiffs have a good case, and that the American “landlord class” deserves a far more sympathetic ear than it’s had lately. I’ve been a renter for most of my adult

life, including times when I could have swung a down payment and qualified for a mortgage to own instead of rent. Renting made more sense for various reasons, including my somewhat itinerant lifestyle - following jobs, following love, etc. Most of my landlords haven’t been giant corporations with deep pockets. They’ve been regular people who worked hard, put their money into real estate down payments and tried to keep that real estate occupied by paying tenants until the property was paid off and might perhaps turn a profit or be sold. And even the giant corporations with deep pockets are providing a service to willing customers. They’re not charities and shouldn’t be expected to act like charities. During the eviction moratoria, landlords haven’t shed themselves of responsibility for keeping the water running, keeping the heat and air conditioning in working order and making mortgage payments. They’re still paying, or trying to pay, those costs. But they’re not getting the rent that tenants freely agreed to pay before moving in. If you’re looking for a solution that pleases and protects everyone, I’m sorry to say you’re reading the wrong column. I have no such solution to offer. However, given that the government’s solution to every COVID-19 problem so far has been to kick the printing presses into high gear and mail out checks, it seems to me that America’s landlords have a better case than most in suing for checks of their own.

DNACA announces 40th Anniversary Performance Series Del Norte Association for Cultural Awareness is pleased to announce its 40th Anniversary Performance Series. This season will present five top performing acts in a variety of styles, from national and international artists. “Although part of the 2019-20 season and all of the 2020-21 season were canceled due to COVID-19 restrictions, we’re pleased to be moving forward with our 40th anniversary season this year,” said DNACA Executive Director Stephanie La Torre. “The community has shown their support for DNACA across the span of 40 years, and we are grateful to be able to show our appreciation through the presentation of these truly stellar performances.” The season will open on Saturday, October 9, with legendary blues and soul artist Curtis Salgado. Salgado was the original inspiration for the movie “The Blues Brothers” and NPR calls him “an icon” with “a huge voice.” As an award-winning vocalist, instrumentalist, and songwriter, Salgado is known worldwide for his ability to wring every ounce of soul out of every song he performs. Salgado is famed for his powerhouse live shows, and has won nine Blues Music Awards, including the B.B. King Entertainer of The Year. Billboard says Salgado’s music is “inspired and powerful.”

On Friday, February 11, 2022, DNACA welcomes Okaidja Afroso to the stage. Afroso was born into a family of musicians and storytellers in Ghana. He began his career as a dancer with the celebrated Ghana Dance Ensemble; but as he toured internationally, Afroso expanded his artistic reach. He now tours as a master singer, guitarist, percussionist, storyteller, and dancer. He brings soul-filled music that charts a journey from the traditional songs of his youth in Ghana to the influences of international collaborators, always striving to embody the human experience. While he is here, Afroso will present a program of Ghanaian music and dance to local elementary students. On Friday March 11, 2022, Sundae + Mr. Goessl will bring their vintage charm to our community. Their act encompasses jazz, pop, Americana, country, charm, fashion, comedy and vaudeville - with accolades and awards to boot. Sundae + Mr. Goessl features award-winning vocalist Kate Voss (Earshot Magazine’s Vocalist of the Year, two-time Seattle-Kobe Vocal Jazz Princess) and virtuoso guitarist Jason Goessl, who has played with such jazz greats as saxophonist Michel Brecker and guitarist Charlie Byrd. Sundae often surprises her audiences with a melodica solo and JazzTimes says “her voice

nails the authenticity of this era.” This delightful duo will also present a music class to our local students while they are here. On Friday, April 8, 2022, Los Tangueros del Oeste will grace the stage with their Nuevo Tango style. Focusing on original compositions by group founder Sascha Jacobsen (who was last seen by DNACA audiences with the group Barrio Manouche in 2020) the group combines beats and textures from Hip-Hop and Electronica, with Flamenco influences to create a sound that’s both cool and impassioned, seductive, and utterly dance-inducing. Including World Champion Tango dancers Maxi Copello and Raquel Makow in the show, Los Tangueros have created a unique and compelling performance experience for modern audiences. While in our area, Los Tangueros will teach master classes in Tango music and dance to local students. The season will conclude on Saturday, May 14, 2022, with Sarah Hagen starring in her original project, “Perk Up, Pianist!” Hagen is an accomplished, passionate pianist with awards such as Musician of the Year and Best Classical Performance to her name. This critically-acclaimed, one-woman “sit-down comedy” project charts the tale of a touring classical musician who remains op-

timistic amidst challenging and ridiculous situations. The performance includes witty comic relief set to stunning classical piano compositions. This season, DNACA is also partnering with the Tolowa Dee-Ni’ Nation and Lucky 7 Casino to present three of their concerts at the Tolowa Event Center in Smith River. “The first three concerts will take place at the Tolowa Event Center,” says La Torre. “It’s a beautiful venue and we’re excited to present concerts at this location. The support we are receiving from the Tolowa Dee-Ni’ Nation and Lucky 7 Casino really shows their commitment to our community.” The venue provides DNACA with resources such as separate dressing areas and bathroom facilities for artists, and on-site restaurant dining for concert-goers. Other resources include COVID precautions such as an in-depth sanitization program, and flexible seating arrangements to offer more distancing between

seats and audience groups. “The last two concerts of the season will take place at Crescent Elk Auditorium in Crescent City. The auditorium is undergoing extensive renovation, and it’s going to be the perfect venue for our tango concert, with the dancers elevated on the stage, and for Sarah Hagen’s concert, since there’s a beautiful piano for her there,” says La Torre. Season tickets are available, and provide a significant discount to attend all five performances. General season tickets are $80, seniors (65 years and older) are $70, students (K-full time college) are $60, and family passes (two general and two students) are $200. For individual shows, general tickets are $20, senior tickets are $18 and students are $15. Season tickets and individual show tickets are available online at dnaca.eventbrite.com, in Crescent City at Del Norte Office Supply at 240 I Street, in Brookings at Wright’s Custom Framing at 810 Chetco Avenue, and

at the door. DNACA would not be able to present such outstanding performances without the generous support of program underwriters Patty Brunsing, Caldwell Clan Fund, Lisé Hamilton, Lucky 7 Casino, Bill and Kathy Maffett, Moore Heating and Air, Nick and Lisa Rail Music Fund, Michael and Jennifer Schmidt, and Bob and Diane Weir. DNACA’s inkind supporter is Bicoastal Media. DNACA is funded in part by the California Arts Council, a state agency and by the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency. Performance and engagement activities by Okaidja Afroso and Los Tangueros del Oeste are made possible by TourWest, a program of WESTAF, the Western States Arts Federation.

Contributed Photo

Bandon resident, Janna James, participated in the last “Bike the Rogue.” The 11th annual Rotary Bike the Rogue bicycling event will take place Saturday, September 11, in Gold Beach. This spectacularly scenic event offers cyclists low traffic routes, along with good weather, great food and SAG support. Riders have their choice of two different routes through this wild and remote southwestern corner of Oregon: 23 miles/1,100 vertical feet ($30.00), and 38 miles/2,000 vertical feet ($40.00). Both rides follow the banks of the

mighty Rogue River, and cross three bridges. The 38-mile ride finishes along the Pacific Ocean, with panoramic views of beaches, sea stacks and rugged coastline. A continental breakfast for all registered riders will be provided at the start to kick off the event. Wellstocked rest stations will be positioned every 7-15 miles along the route, and there will be a cold Arch Rock beer waiting for thirsty bikers at the end of their ride. Each paid rider will receive $5 voucher toward a wood-fired pizza from the Wandering Pizzaioli food truck in Buffington Park at the end of event. Riders will also receive a $5 voucher off the entry fee to the Turtle Rock Music Festival which will be taking place in Gold Beach the same afternoon/evening as Bike the Rogue. The Rotary Club of Gold Beach hosts Bike the Rogue in collaboration with sponsors Century 21 Agate Realtor Mary

Stansell, Umpqua Bank and the city of Gold Beach. First Chapter Coffee House of Gold Beach will provide coffee for the continental breakfast, and Bandon Bicycle Works of Bandon will provide SAG support. Registration for Bike the Rogue will start at 7 a.m. September 11 in Buffington Park for those who have not pre-registered. The entrance to the park is four blocks east of Highway 101 on Gauntlet Street in Gold Beach. Anyone pre-registering with a postmark before September 1 will receive $5 off the entry fee, per rider. Registration and waiver forms are available at the Bike the Rogue website: www.http://goldbeachrotary.com/bike-the-rogue/, or Google “Bike the Rogue Gold Beach.” This is a “safety first” event, and bicycle helmets are required.
