Not sure just how revealing this speech Mike Hislop recently gave at the Fortuna Rotary is. It doesn’t seem he’s that good of a public speaker so it’s hard to understand some of what he’s saying. I can’t pick on him for that since I’m a horrific public speaker myself, but some of the stuff he says just seems odd to me.

From the Humboldt Herald inbox. Apparently it came from Florida.
There will be a change of the landscape in the “war on drugs”. The fight will no longer be with state and federal law makers. It will be with importers and growers of foreign product and domestic mass producing corporate farms. We need to protect the “home grown” crop from foreign invaders and corporate raiders. The only way to do this is by organizing. We would be idiots to think that tobacco and alcohol aren’t sitting on the sidelines waiting to stake their claim in the billion dollar marijuana industry. These people have a ready built distribution network and millions of dollars in advertising funds. There is nothing that can be done to stop them. A page should be taken from the beer and wine industry and offer boutique products like the small craft brewery’s and vineyard’s. For the small time farmers breaking into the market by themselves will be nearly impossible. That is why we created the MGAA. The association web site will be a place to show case your products to buyers and distributors on a national level. We look forward to your comments and thoughts.

New plan eyed for Beachfront Park [Daily Triplicate]
Planning Commission begins consideration of possible amenities
A new plan is in the works for Crescent City’s Beachfront Park, though
it might take awhile before anyone really notices any changes.
Crescent City Planning Commission members will discuss a new master
plan for the park today, and be asked to complete a survey that
citizens will eventually have an opportunity to fill out to give
officials an idea of what they would like to see included in a
potential redesign of the Front Street green space.

On Tuesday, March 9th, from 7:00 to 9:00 the City of Eureka will be hosting a community workshop in the City Hall Council Chambers to provide information to the public related to the draft medical cannabis ordinance. The ordinance is designed to regulate the cultivation of medical cannabis and formation of medical cannabis collectives in the City of Eureka. The ordinance is not intended to interfere with a patient’s right to cannabis marijuana, as provided for in California Health & Safety Code Section 11362, nor does it criminalize medical cannabis possession or cultivation by specifically defined classifications of persons, pursuant to state law.

No, I’m not talking about health insurance, or lack of it. Well, I suppose that can have something to do with it since those on MediCal might have fewer options than those that have regular insurance or pay out of pocket. I’m referring to just being able to find a doctor for something.

Denton, Texas, band Midlake has been at once compared to both Radiohead and Jethro Tull. Conversely, in the recording studio, Midlake is trying to emulate a tone similar to early ‘70s-era King Crimson, which bass player Paul Alexander says is the best recorded sound in rock history.
Midlake will be in Arcata on Friday, March 5, at the HSU Depot with Matthew and the Arrogant Sea at 9 p.m. Tickets are $5 general admission and $2 for current HSU students with a student ID.
