A group working on a fall ballot initiative that would limit the rights of transgender students lost a round in court Monday when a judge sided with the state in its description of the measure.
The Cal Poly Humboldt campus is closed today, as dozens of protesters continue to occupy Siemens Hall, having barricaded its entrances, while calling on the university to divest from entities they say fuel Israel’s ongoing war on Hamas in Gaza. “The message from inside is that, first of all, they feel the university is complicit because of the campus’ investments with weapons companies and Israeli companies,” said Ryan Connelly, a junior biology major who identified himself as a spokes...
The Humboldt County multi-agency Critical Incident Response team is investigating a police shooting of an unidentified male suspect on Fern Street around 10:40 a.m. The man is receiving treatment at an area hospital, as is a 75-year-old woman he allegedly shot prior to being contacted by police.

I appreciated the Journal's thoughtful editorial on energy use and offshore wind project proposed for Humboldt County ('Our Last Best Chance,' April 11). Yet in ongoing 'green power' debates, one important fact is consistently left out: In large part the energy produced by these projects will not supplant dirty energy, but supplement it.
In a case that could drastically alter how cities in California and beyond deal with homeless encampments, U.S. Supreme Court justices on April 22 weighed whether to allow broader punishment for people camping in public spaces. 'Laws like ours, they really do serve an essential purpose,' said Theane Evangelis, arguing on behalf of the city of Grants Pass, Oregon, which banned encampments.
Proponents of a successful Arcata ballot initiative to fly the Earth flag atop the city's flagpoles say they plan to appeal a judge's ruling that it was unlawful for the city to raise the flag above that of the United States. The Arcata City Council voted unanimously last week, with one member absent, to adhere to Humboldt County Superior Court Judge Timothy Canning's recent ruling that voters 'do not have the power to exempt' the city from state laws mandating the U.S. flag fly above ...
Let's Walk! The kick-off for Trinidad Art Nights 2024 with the Bayou Swamis with Cajun/Zydeco flavored dance at Saunders Plaza East, and The Flying Oms, an eclectic traditional and classical music duo with Rob Diggins and Jolianne Einem at Trinidad Town Hall from 7 to 8:30 p.m.
Speaking of hip hop (and for that matter, an organic, career-length artistic celebration of the fun side of weed) Houston’s screwball master MC, guest star and laid back producer Devin the Dude is posting up at Humbrews tonight at 9 p.m. on a stop on his Whole New Ballroom tour. He might be a few days late for 4/20, but I have no doubt the vibe won’t be affected in the slightest, and, although it’s easy to over-simplify his act as a rolling carnival of High Times, the Dude has got effo...
Let's talk about the faces we show to and hide from the world, and how the internet magnifies them all. Welcome to part five of Making Change, a six-week series on the hows and whys of personal, social and political change.
what goes better with the blue suede shoes: the pink peg slacks or the red blue jeans? This raspberry beret matches the pants, or I could do the fez and switch
THE MINISTRY OF UNGENTLEMANLY WARFARE. When they're really cooking, Guy Ritchie movies can deliver a thrilling, funny, well-appointed (if slightly vapid) pastiche of Brit-crime in a heightened, mid-century American vein.
Fans of ensemble vocal jazz and pop are in for a treat this afternoon when the Mad River Transit Singers present a matinee performance at Fulkerson Hall at 2 p.m. ($10, $5 children and seniors, free to Cal Poly Humboldt students).
