Unfortunate turn or phrase

 * ...discovered during a search by Spaniards...
 * "Discovered" implies that the area was uninhabited before, or that the original people were insignificant. There certainly were Native peoples in the area (I'll have to look up which, but I believe Yokuts, Mono, and Miwok for sure).--CodeGeneratR 17:01, 12 July 2005 (UTC)

 * This sentence has been addressed, and changed to the proper contextual structure. As history notes that the Vikings "discovered" Greenland and northern areas of eastern Canada, and Columbus "discovered" the new world, even though there were indigenous peoples already in these areas at the time of their "discovery", it WAS a discovery for these travelers from the European continent... Edit Centric 22:24, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Citation Needed
"The county withdrew 3.7 billion gallons of fresh water per day in 2000, more than any other county in the United States."

Add Routes
Sorry for not logging in before adding all these highways, but they ARE verified, I have personally driven on all of them in the past 3 years. (Also helps that I'm a native!) I'll be updating any further route additions under Edit Centric, so the changes will be attributable to a single user...69.225.1.190 13:57, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

mention notable author
Could there be mentioned that this town was the home town of William Saroyan? There is theatre named after him, so maybe somewhere near that?--Paxik 10:19, 14 March 2007 (UTC)

 * If we mention William Saroyan, we also have to mention OTHER notable persons from Fresno and it's surrounding areas as pertains to this article, such as Kevin Federline and others. I personally don't believe that this County article is the place for that list. Besides, it is already present in the CITY article. Please see Fresno,_California.Edit Centric 22:26, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

"In the 2004 presidential election, Clovis"
The above line was in the article under politics. I pulled it out since it's an incomplete sentence, but feel free to add it back if you can complete the sentence :) Janet13 01:46, 22 August 2007 (UTC)

Politics Section
Who keeps putting it back up? It's not even accurate? Fresno County was 57% Republican in 2004! Get your facts straight. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.5.170.110 (talk) 20:23, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

I put information about the up-to-date voter registration within the county. I also removed a comment about the voter registration in the unincorporated areas being 2-1 GOP - this may have been true before, but is no longer.

Another call to whoever keeps putting the politics section up
Stop. You're misleading many people with your inaccurate table. If you're going to make a politics section, AT LEAST MAKE IT RIGHT. Having no information about Fresno County politics is better than having wrong information about it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.5.170.110 (talk) 22:46, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

Omission of Congressman Jim Costa
While reading the politics section, I discovered that Congressman Jim Costa was omitted in the section about Congressional representation. Costa has represented portions of Fresno County since his election in 2004. Any reason for this omission? I suggest he be added to this. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:9:8480:10C7:952:E1BD:BB1:A188 (talk) 05:52, 10 July 2014 (UTC)

Table Issue
The table "Cities by population and voter registration" depicts democrat-republican voter spread in a color and +/- format, with republican majorities listed as negatives. This is un-encyclopedic and smacks of bias. The column could be eliminated, but I personally find the data to be informative. Similarly, we could easily change the "-" to "+", but I'm concerned that change would make the table less clear. Any ideas? TreacherousWays (talk) 11:43, 15 May 2015 (UTC)

And now, five years after that comment, I see tabular data for political affiliation, crime, race, and income, but none of the columns are labeled. What good are tables if the information isn't labeled? The Tulare County article has the same problem. 174.97.145.148 (talk) 04:08, 15 August 2020 (UTC)

Edit question
Wondering how to edit this U.S. County Entry? The WikiProject U.S. Counties standards might help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rambot (talk • contribs) 21:33, 26 July 2003 (UTC)

History
The only history on this page is small bit about the discovery of Humboldt Bay and then a bit about the Indian Island massacre and the Chinese expulsion, two very low points in Humboldt County history. While all these topics are worthy, there is a lot to Humboldt County history that deserves mention. I don't have time to do any work on it at the moment, but some topics that come to mind: The Jedediah Smith party was the first group of whites to find an overland route to Humboldt Bay. Arcata used to be one of the points of entry and exit for the Gold Rush in Trinity county, and outfitters were to be found in abundance (that's where the Jacoby Store House in Arcata got its start). During prohibition Humboldt County was an active moonshining location. The timber industry built the towns around Humboldt and dominated Humboldt County politics. Modern history that includes the timber industry should also focus on protest against logging, including Redwood Summer and Julia Butterfly Hill at the very minimum. The early ranching families might also be worth the mention. The influx of counter-culture types in the sixties and seventies was definitely an event and has ramifications for Humboldt County's liberal bastions, pot culture and protest spirit. In general, the Hopa and Yurok people deserve mention since they are by far the largest Native American groups in the region and have large reservations with unique histories.

In relation to the Indian Island massacre: part of the spark for the massacre was because several ranchers had allegedy lost cattle in raids by Native Americans. The Wiyot people were not to blame for these raids, they were peaceful and traded and intermarried to some degree with the white settlers. Unfortunately they were convenient scape-goats. However, there is evidence that "mountain tribes" violently resisted white settlement and may have been the cause of some of the cattle raid stories. Also, there is a more recent good note in the Indian Island massacre history: the city of Eureka finally gave 40 acres of Indian Island back to the Wiyot people on June 25th 2004. The remaining 1.5 acres are in private hands and the Wiyot tribe is attempting to raise the funds to buy that property. Lastly, a healing vigil and world renewal festival every year on the site. --Metatree 01:52, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Text flow, removing lists
I think the list of towns, the list of schools, and any other mere list should be removed to a sub-page so that it doesn't interrupt the text flow. --Vampyrecat 30 June 2006

"It is popularly believed?"
C'mon people, this flies in the face of the timber industry which has supported and supports Scotia and Rio Dell, cold decks are everywhere in the county and you can't drive the roads without passing logging and lumber trucks. The phrase is 'weasel worded', defies Reliable Sources and directly conflicts with what any casual visitor to Humboldt County would see. And of course, the timber industry is documentable while MJ production isn't. Can't we tone that down a little? And, to be honest, while that might, maybe, have been true 15 years ago, it is far more difficult with satellite technology present, etc. etc. Terryeo 14:03, 11 August 2006 (UTC)

I agree with you that the phrase "it is popularly believed," may be misleading, because many people may not in fact believe. However, there is actually some good evidence that MJ production is in fact a very large industry. A Mendocino county paper estimated that the industry hauled in about $1.5 billion a year in that county, and I see little reason to believe that Humboldt county is much different. Yes, probably less pot is grown outdoors than in the past, but outdoor growing techniques have become quite a bit more sophisticated. Humboldt county has notoriusly steep terrain and plant cover that is very difficult to surveil or even enter. Further, there is now a HUGE indoor growing scene. Some rental agencies in Humboldt estimate that marijuana is being grown in 50% of their rentals. Prop 215 has also boosted production, because many small time growers feel quite safe if they have a medical permit, and stay under the legal limits. I have no idea if the MJ economy is larger than the timber, but I'm quite sure it is very large. In any case, I do agree that it is too bad that this is such a huge topic of discussion when there are so many other topics that would be interesting to cover on Humboldt county, I have made similar statements about the History section. Ah well, I guess people will write about what they are interested in... --Metatree 04:14, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

The Sheriff vs. The Supreme Court
Wasn't the Supreme Court's only role to order that the protesters had the right to a trial? They didn't make any ruling on the facts of the case, which was left to the lower courts. Charles Douglas 15:47, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

Eureka and the courts
While the bit on the Sheriff's department and the US district court seems appropriate to the Humboldt County page, I think that the stuff that is specific to Eureka law enforcement should be moved to the E ureka page. --Metatree 02:53, 30 October 2006 (UTC)

bad link for "Redwood Park"
The link for "Redwood Park" in the Points of interest section links to someplace in Australia... Is there really a "Redwood Park" in Humboldt County - apart from the state parks- or should this entry be deleted altogether? Dru007 01:23, 26 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sure there is. It's not a populated place, but a city park in Arcata. I removed it from the list, as it is more appropriate to that city's article. Although the forests and marsh in Arcata are also within the city, they are well-known (to waste managers and foresters anyway) outside the area (see WP:WEIGHT). I added a wikilink to Redwood N&S Parks, which was likely what you were looking for.

 * I also removed Moonstone Beach because there is no WP article of that name (and there is not likely to be one due to the scarcity of encyclopedic sources) and because it is only one of the beaches in the county.

Tallest and Oldest Trees
Browsing WP and the internet reveals that neither the tallest nor oldest trees are near the Avenue of the Giants. Search for Hyperion and Methuselah. There are also a number of Drive-Thru Trees that are not on the Avenue. The parenthetical material is subject to prompt deletion unless a quote from the cited source is provided.

The bit about the Madrone should go as well. The tallest of one particular species in an uncertain location ("about 40 minutes" is not a measure of distance!) that was knocked down some time in a two-year time frame several years ago needn't be mentioned as a "point of interest".

The Hyperion bit should be added parenthetically added to RN&SP. The parenthetical bit about the Ave should be deleted. The bit about the Madrone should be deleted. This will restore the list to a list format. Any comments?

 * The tallest and oldest of the remaining Redwoods are in Humboldt and Del Norte counties. A statement to specify in some way (but to avoid the battle over exact location of the tallest that seems to change after every lightening storm) for each county's article seems appropriate and important. By the way, I have been looking for a good picture of a redwood grove or forest in Humboldt County for the article. I think its time this article showcase the tremendous fact of the beauty of the preserved groves in a picture. I have yet to find an "easy" one that will not cause questions of copyright, etc. Shall we look for that as well? Norcalal 01:00, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Humboldt Bay Designation
Is it more than just unsourced braggadocio that labels Humboldt Bay "one of the largest deep-water ports on the West Coast of the United States"? For I see no facts in this article, nor in the eponymous article, to back this claim up. --Satyricrash (talk) 02:00, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Looking at any map of the West Coast of the US, one can see that it is true. For purposes of this article though, it is sufficient to leave the importance as now indicated. It would not be bragging to state a fact. Norcalal 07:03, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

 * Alright, I am looking on my map and nowhere does it state how deep any port is, which is deepest, where on you map does it say depth of the water? Best O Fortuna (talk) 15:49, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * There was never a statement that Humboldt Bay was the deepest. In fact not a single word on any of the pages referring to the bay have ever claimed that. Norcalal 16:49, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Please show documented fact, not "anyone can see" nonsense. Is this an encyclopedia or an game of Sherlock Holmes? --Satyricrash (talk) 21:14, 14 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Your issue was duly noted. The original claim you had issue with existed in only one of the articles. I agreed that it needed to be stated better. And it was. But I am beginning to see that is not good enough for you and perhaps little will be. Norcalal 23:06, 14 July 2008 (UTC)

"The body of water is the site of the only significant concentration of population on the entire North Coast of California north of San Francisco." i removed this. there are huge population concentrations north of san francisco other than humboldt bay. santa rosa alone has almost 4 times the entire population of humboldt county. unless we are talking population of crabs or oysters or something?--64.194.66.109 (talk) 08:56, 21 August 2008 (UTC)
 * The error was in not stating clearly that it is coastal. Humboldt has about 130,000 compared to Santa Rosa's 160,000, which is nowhere near 4 times. The population around Humboldt Bay (approximately 90,000-100,000 is by far the largest on the PACIFIC COAST between San Francisco and Canada. Norcalal 07:53, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Marijuana section deletions
It is inappropriate to delete this relevant information. The material includes citation and is a fact. Norcalal 07:54, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Please discuss
Please stop reverting each other, 17Spartacus76 and Norcalal. You're both way above the 3 revert limit. Try to discuss the issue here instead. I've locked the article for a few days to prevent more silliness, but let me know if you can promise to stop revert warring and I'll unlock it straight away. Cheers, henrik  • talk  12:47, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

As I've stated before, if the marijuana industry and the a film based on this county is to be mentioned then this event needs to be mentioned as well. Being a landmark event, it certainly is notable. I would also point immediately above this section to the comment made by Norcalal himself when he reinstated a deletion to the 'Marijuana' section. By his own standards, he should not have been so zealously deleting any reference to this event. --17Spartacus76 (talk) 21:07, 20 July 2009 (UTC)

Marijuana/Politics
I changed "strongly Democratic" to "Democratic" mostly 'cause those superlatives seem un-encyclopedic. I had CA's Cong Dist 1 (an historic swing dist) in mind. Looking at county-level voter reg and election results, "strongly" might apply. Feel free to revert.

I was wondering, though, about marijuana/politics. There's something different about Hum Co [99 plants considered pers use?], but it's not that co gov protects or licenses growers. No amt of cultivation is legal under US fed law, and few local govs are challenging that. How is CA's MM law applied specifically to Hum Co? This section could be expanded to differentiate Hum from other CA localities (contrast places like Riverside or SD counties) in "official" terms or otherwise distinguishing fed law/state law. 75.111.27.84 (talk) 21:05, 24 November 2009 (UTC)

The Independent is in Humboldt IOWA, not California
Under the media section, "The Independent" is listed as one of the area's media sources.

Kopppen Climate System for Humboldt County?
Would it be possible to include Koppen classification on the front page?

Census Reference 3 & 4 need to be combined
I'm traveling. Someone had reverted population figures to the 1990s. I both corrected these edits and updated the number to include the US Census Estimate for 2018. I cannot take any more time on a small device while attending to business to correct the citation to: https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/humboldtcountycalifornia/PST045217 If someone has a moment, please assist...but for the moment the population is at least NOW back to correct values. For the life of me I cannot understand who or why numbers were put back to where they were about 30 yrs ago. Thank You.

Orphaned references in Humboldt County, California
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Humboldt County, California's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Charlie Sheen

Carlos Irwin Estévez (born September 3, 1965), known professionally as Charlie Sheen, is an American actor. He is known as a leading man in film and television. Over his fifty-year career he has received numerous accolades including a Golden Globe Award as well as nominations for four Primetime Emmy Awards. In 1994 he received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

Charlie Sheen followed in the footsteps of his father Martin Sheen in becoming an actor. He starred in a slew of successful films such as Red Dawn (1984), Platoon (1986), Wall Street (1987), Eight Men Out (1988), Young Guns (1988), The Rookie (1990), The Three Musketeers (1993), and The Arrival (1996). In the 2000s, when Sheen replaced Michael J. Fox as the star of ABC's Spin City, his portrayal of Charlie Crawford earned him a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor. He then starred as Charlie Harper on the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men (2003–11), for which he received multiple Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy nominations, and as Dr. Charles "Charlie" Goodson on the FX series Anger Management (2012–14). In 2010, Sheen was the highest-paid actor on television, earning US$1.8 million per episode of Two and a Half Men.

Sheen was terminated from his Two and a Half Men contract by CBS and Warner Bros. following a public series of substance-abuse issues, marital problems and comments made towards the series' creator, Chuck Lorre. In 2015, Sheen publicly revealed that he is HIV positive which led to an increase in HIV prevention and testing which was dubbed the "Charlie Sheen effect".

Early life
Sheen was born Carlos Irwin Estévez on September 3, 1965, in New York City, the youngest son of actor Martin Sheen (whose real name is Ramón Estévez) and artist Janet Templeton. His paternal grandparents were emigrants from Galicia (Spain) and Ireland, respectively. Sheen said in 2011 that his father was Catholic and his mother was Southern Baptist. He has two older brothers, Emilio and Ramon, and a younger sister, Renée, all actors. His parents moved to Malibu, California, after Martin's Broadway run in The Subject Was Roses. Sheen's first movie appearance was at age nine in his father's 1974 film The Execution of Private Slovik. Sheen attended Santa Monica High School in Santa Monica, California, along with Robert Downey Jr., where he was a star pitcher and shortstop for the baseball team.

At Santa Monica High School, he showed an early interest in acting, making amateur Super 8 films with his brother Emilio and school friends Rob Lowe and Sean Penn under his birth name. A few weeks before his scheduled graduation from Santa Monica High School, Sheen was expelled from school for poor grades and attendance. He then chose to become an actor, and adopted the stage name Charlie Sheen. His father had adopted the surname Sheen in honor of the Catholic archbishop and theologian Fulton J. Sheen, and Charlie was an English form of his given name Carlos.

1983–1999: Breakthrough and stardom
Sheen's film career began in 1983, when he was cast to portray Ron in Grizzly II: The Predator, the sequel to the 1976 low-budget horror movie Grizzly, which remained unreleased until 2020. In 1984, he had a role in the Cold War teen drama Red Dawn with Patrick Swayze, C. Thomas Howell, Lea Thompson, and Jennifer Grey.

Sheen and Grey reunited in a small scene in Ferris Bueller's Day Off (1986). He also appeared in an episode of the anthology series Amazing Stories. Sheen had his first major role in the Vietnam War drama Platoon (1986).

In 1987, he starred with his father in Wall Street in which he played the role of Bud Fox, a young and ambitious stockbroker. Both Wall Street and Platoon were directed by Oliver Stone. In 1988, Stone asked Sheen to star in his new film Born on the Fourth of July (1989) but later cast Tom Cruise instead. Sheen was never notified by Stone, and he only found out when he heard the news from his brother Emilio. Sheen did not take a lead role in Stone's subsequent films, although he did have a cameo role in Money Never Sleeps.

In 1988, he starred in the baseball film Eight Men Out as outfielder Happy Felsch. Also in 1988, he appeared opposite his brother Emilio in Young Guns and again in 1990 in Men at Work. In 1989, Sheen, John Fusco, Christopher Cain, Lou Diamond Phillips, Emilio Estévez and Kiefer Sutherland were honored with a Bronze Wrangler for their work on the film Young Guns.

In 1990, he starred alongside his father in Cadence as a rebellious inmate in a military stockade and with Clint Eastwood in the buddy cop film The Rookie. The films were directed by Sheen and Eastwood, respectively. In 1992, he featured in Beyond the Law with Linda Fiorentino and Michael Madsen. In 1994, Sheen was given a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 1997, Sheen wrote his first movie, Discovery Mars, a direct-to-video documentary revolving around the question, "Is There Life on Mars?". The next year, Sheen wrote, produced and starred in the action movie No Code of Conduct.

Sheen appeared in several comedy roles, including the Major League films, Money Talks, and the spoof Hot Shots! films. Sheen has also done voices for animation, appearing as Charlie in All Dogs Go To Heaven 2 (1996), replacing Burt Reynolds. In 1999, Sheen appeared in a sitcom pilot for ABC, called Sugar Hill, which was not picked up. In 1999, Sheen played himself in Being John Malkovich.

2000–2011: Sitcom roles
In 2000, Sheen debuted on the small screen when he replaced Michael J. Fox for the last two seasons of the sitcom Spin City (which also had fellow Ferris Bueller actor Alan Ruck as Stuart Bondek). For his work on Spin City, Sheen was nominated for two ALMA Awards and won his first Golden Globe for Best Performance by an Actor in a Television Series – Musical or Comedy. The series ended in 2002. He also appeared in Scary Movie 3 (2003), Scary Movie 4 (2006) and Scary Movie 5 (2013) entries in the popular horror-spoof series Scary Movie.

In 2003, Sheen was cast as Charlie Harper in the CBS sitcom Two and a Half Men, which followed the popular Monday night time slot of Everybody Loves Raymond. Sheen's role on Two and a Half Men was loosely based on Sheen's bad-boy image. The role garnered him an ALMA Award and he gained three Emmy Award nominations and two Golden Globe award nominations. During his eighth and final season on the show, Sheen earned $1.8 million per episode.

Warner Bros. dismissal and publicity
Production of Two and a Half Men went on hiatus in January 2011 while Sheen underwent a substance rehabilitation program in his home, his third attempt at rehab in 12 months. The following month, CBS canceled the season's four remaining episodes after Sheen publicly made offensive comments about the series' creator, Chuck Lorre, and Warner Bros. Television banned Sheen from entering its production lot. Sheen, already the highest-paid actor on television, responded by publicly demanding a 50-percent raise, claiming that in comparison to the amount that the series was making, he was "underpaid".

CBS and Warner Bros. Television terminated Sheen's contract on March 7, 2011. He was replaced by Ashton Kutcher. In the aftermath of his dismissal, Sheen continued to feud with Chuck Lorre, and filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against Lorre and Warner Bros. Television, which was settled the following September 26. That same month, Sheen, while presenting an award at the Primetime Emmy Awards, addressed "everybody here from Two and a Half Men" and stated, "From the bottom of my heart, I wish you nothing but the best for this upcoming season. We spent eight wonderful years together and I know you will continue to make great television." In 2012, Sheen returned to television in Anger Management, the spin-off of the film of the same name. The series ended after a 100-episode run in the second season.

In the wake of the dismissal, Sheen had a highly publicized meltdown which was broadcast on television and the Internet. He made claims in television interviews suggesting that he was a "warlock" with "tiger blood" and "Adonis DNA", and that he was "winning". He also posted videos to YouTube showing himself smoking cigarettes through his nose, and cursing out his former employers. He told one TV interviewer, "I'm tired of pretending I'm not special. I'm tired of pretending I'm not a total bitchin' rock star from Mars." After being accused of antisemitism in 2011, Sheen claimed that his mother was Jewish, although Jewish Standard reporter Nate Bloom wrote that he found no evidence to support this and described Sheen's claim as "exceedingly unlikely". Sheen said later that year that his father was Catholic and his mother was Southern Baptist.

On September 19, 2011, Sheen was roasted on Comedy Central. It was watched by 6.4 million people, making it the highest-rated roast on Comedy Central to date. Also that year, he played a role in the hip hop music video "Steak & Mash Potatoes" by Chain Swangaz featuring Brother Marquis. The video features both rappers as fast-food employees who create havoc while their boss (Sheen) is gone.

2012–present: Continued work
In 2012, Sheen was cast to star alongside Jason Schwartzman and Bill Murray in Roman Coppola's surreal comedy film A Glimpse Inside the Mind of Charles Swan III. That same year he voiced Dex Dogtective in the Lionsgate animated comedy Foodfight (2012). For the 2013 film Machete Kills, in which Sheen played the President of the United States, he was credited under his birth name Carlos Estévez. It was a one-time move due to the film's Hispanic theme; it was Sheen's idea to use his birth name for the film. The trailer and opening credits for the film used an "and introducing..." tag when showing Sheen's birth name. Sheen's next feature film project was the ensemble film 9/11 (2017), an adaptation of the 9/11 stage play Elevator written by Patrick Carson. The film also featured Whoopi Goldberg, Gina Gershon, Luis Guzmán, Wood Harris, Jacqueline Bisset and Bruce Davison.

In October 2018, Sheen flew to Australia for his "An Evening with Charlie Sheen" tour. During this time, he filmed an advert for car servicing company Ultra Tune which was the next installment in their controversial "Unexpected Situations" series alongside Parnia Porsche, Laura Lydall, Tyana Hansen and Imogen Lovell.

Other ventures
In 2006, Sheen launched a clothing line for children, called Sheen Kidz. In 2011, Sheen set a Guinness World Record as the "Fastest Time to Reach 1 Million Followers" on Twitter, adding an average of 129,000 new followers daily ) and setting a Guinness record for "Highest Paid TV Actor Per Episode – Current" at $1.25 million while he was a part of the cast of Two and a Half Men sitcom. On March 3, 2011, Sheen signed with Ad.ly marketing agency specializing in Twitter and Facebook promotions.

On March 10, 2011, Sheen announced a nationwide tour, "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option", which began in Detroit on April 2. The tour sold out in 18 minutes, a Ticketmaster record. However, on April 1, 2011, the Detroit Free Press featured an article that stated as of March 30 that there were over 1000 tickets available from a third-party reseller, some at 15% less than the cheapest seats sold at the Fox Theater. The Huffington Post reported that it was expected Sheen would earn $1 million in 2011 from Twitter endorsements and $7 million from the North American tour. Many of those attending the performance of April 2 in Detroit found it disappointing; the subsequent performance in Chicago, which featured some adjustments, received a more positive reception.

Sheen was announced as the face of and partner in "NicoSheen", a line of disposable E-cigarettes and related products.

On August 13, 2011, Sheen hosted at the 12th annual Gathering of the Juggalos, an event created by the Insane Clown Posse. He received a mixed reaction from the audience, but has expressed appreciation for the culture by describing himself as a Juggalo and wearing a baseball cap featuring the Psychopathic Records logo in public and during production meetings for Anger Management.

Family and relationships
Sheen has been married three times. He has five children and one grandchild.

His oldest daughter is from a relationship with his former high school girlfriend, Paula Profit, whose name has also been given as Paula Speert. Through their daughter, Cassandra Estevez, Sheen has one granddaughter, named Luna.

In January 1990, Sheen's fiancée, Kelly Preston, was hit by shrapnel after a gun went off in their house. She broke off the engagement shortly thereafter. In the 1990s, Sheen subsequently dated a number of pornographic film actresses, including Ginger Lynn and Heather Hunter.

On September 3, 1995, Sheen married his first wife, Donna Peele. That same year, Sheen was named as one of the clients of an escort agency operated by Heidi Fleiss. Sheen and Peele divorced in 1996.

Sheen met actress Denise Richards on the set of Good Advice in 2000. They began dating in October 2001, when Richards guest-starred on Sheen's TV show Spin City. They became engaged on December 26, 2001, and married on June 15, 2002, at the estate of Spin City creator Gary David Goldberg. They have two daughters together (born in 2004 and 2005). In March 2005, Richards filed for divorce, accusing Sheen of alcohol and drug abuse with threats of violence, as well as accusations of Sheen looking at gay pornography featuring "boys who looked underage" and being "attracted" to underage girls. Sheen would later deny these claims, and stated that the FBI was "aware" of the allegations and had searched his computers. The divorce was finalized in November 2006 and preceded a custody dispute over their two daughters.

On May 30, 2008, Sheen married his third wife, Brooke Mueller. Mueller gave birth to their twin sons, Bob and Max, on March 14, 2009. In November 2010, Sheen filed for divorce. On March 1, 2011, police removed the couple's sons from Sheen's home. Sheen told NBC's Today, "I stayed very calm and focused." According to People, social services took the children after Mueller obtained a restraining order against Sheen. The document said, "I am very concerned that [Sheen] is currently insane." Asked if he would fight for the children, Sheen texted People, "Born ready. Winning." Sheen and Mueller's divorce became final on May 2, 2011.

On March 1, 2011, Sheen was concurrently living with 24-year-old pornographic actress Bree Olson and 24-year-old model and graphic designer Natalie Kenly, whom he collectively nicknamed his "goddesses". Olson left Sheen in April 2011, and Kenly left in June 2011. In a January 2013 interview on Piers Morgan Tonight, Sheen stated that he was in a relationship with adult film actress and 2011 Penthouse magazine Pet of the Month Georgia Jones.

Then, in February 2014, Sheen became engaged to former adult film star Brett Rossi, who began going by her real name, Scottine. With a wedding planned for November 2014, the engagement was broken off in October with an announcement that the two had "mutually decided" to separate. Sheen stated, "I've decided that my children deserve my focus more than a relationship does right now. I still have a tremendous fondness for Scotty and I wish her all the best." A month later it was reported that Rossi was hospitalized for an apparent drug overdose. In 2015, Rossi sued Sheen after his announcement of being HIV-positive and for various other allegations such as "assault and battery, emotional distress, false imprisonment and negligence". The suit was referred to arbitration. Another girlfriend of Sheen sued him in 2017, claiming that in 2015 he had concealed his HIV status from her until after they had unprotected sex. The lawsuit was settled in 2022 with Sheen paying $120,000 to the woman.

In June 2022, Sheen's second daughter, Sami, created an OnlyFans account. Sheen initially disapproved of the action. He later changed his mind, citing points made by her mother.

Residences
For many years, Sheen resided in Beverly Hills, California. However, he sold his property for $6.6 million in 2020. As of 2022, Sheen resides in a rented house in Malibu, California.

Sheen has also owned properties in Agoura Hills, Sherman Oaks and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

Substance abuse, legal issues and health
On May 20, 1998, Sheen had a stroke after overdosing while using cocaine and was hospitalized. Sheen was found in his seaside home by a friend, after which paramedics rushed him to Los Robles Hospital & Medical Center in Thousand Oaks, California, where he was described as being in "serious condition" after his stomach was pumped. Days later, Sheen checked into a rehab clinic, then told doctors that he did not intend to stay. Sheen left, but sheriff's deputies forced Sheen back to the clinic. On August 11, 1998, Sheen, already on probation in California for a previous drug offense, had his probation extended by one year and entered a rehab clinic. In a 2004 interview, Sheen disclosed that his previous overdose was caused by injecting cocaine.

On December 25, 2009, Sheen was arrested for assaulting his wife at the time, Brooke Mueller, in Aspen, Colorado. He was released the same day from jail after posting an $8,500 bond. Sheen was charged with felony menacing, as well as third-degree assault and criminal mischief. On August 2, 2010, Sheen, represented by Yale Galanter, pleaded guilty to misdemeanor assault as part of a plea bargain that included dismissal of the other charges against him. Sheen was sentenced to 30 days in a drug rehab center, 30 days of probation, and 36 hours of anger management.

On October 26, 2010, the police removed Sheen from his suite at the Plaza Hotel after he reportedly caused $7,000 in damage. According to the NYPD, Sheen admitted to drinking and using cocaine the night of the incident.

On November 17, 2015, Sheen publicly revealed that he was HIV-positive, having been diagnosed roughly four years earlier. In an interview, he referred to the acronym HIV as "three hard letters to absorb". He manages his condition with a triple cocktail of antiretroviral drugs, and said that it was impossible that he could have knowingly infected any of his partners. Sheen noted that since 2011, he had paid extortionists approximately $10 million to keep his HIV status secret. Sheen stated that he was upfront about his HIV-positive condition with all of his past partners.

In an episode of The Dr. Oz Show taped in late 2015 and aired January 12, 2016, Sheen stated that he had "been off [his] meds for about a week now," receiving alternative treatment in Mexico from Sam Chachoua, who claims to have an effective vaccine for HIV; according to his manager, however, after the episode was taped he resumed taking his medications.

In April 2016, Sheen had his monthly child support payments to his two ex-wives, Richards and Mueller, reduced from $55,000 to $10,000. The same month, it was announced that Sheen was under investigation by the LAPD stalking unit for threatening to kill his former fiancée Scottine Ross.

Corey Feldman allegation
In 2017, Sheen sued the National Enquirer over a story alleging that, in 1986, he raped his 13-year-old co-star Corey Haim on the set of Lucas. The case was settled in 2018. Haim's mother, Judy Haim, identified a different actor as her son's rapist on The Dr. Oz Show, and told Entertainment Tonight that Sheen never raped her son, calling the claims "made up".

In March 2020, actor Corey Feldman repeated the claim that Sheen raped Haim in his documentary (My) Truth: The Rape of Two Coreys, corroborated by Feldman's ex-wife Susie Feldman and his Lost Boys co-star Jamison Newlander. Sheen, through his publicist, denied the allegations, calling them "sick, twisted and outlandish".

The Charlie Sheen effect
Sheen's disclosure of his HIV-positive diagnosis corresponded with the greatest number of HIV-related Google searches ever recorded in the United States. During the three weeks following his disclosure, there were about 2.75 million more searches than expected that included the term HIV, and 1.25 million searches were directly relevant to public-health outcomes because they included search terms for condoms, HIV symptoms, or HIV testing (e.g., "get HIV tested").

A later study found Sheen's disclosure also corresponded with a 95% increase in over-the-counter at-home HIV testing kits.

The study's authors dubbed it "The Charlie Sheen Effect" with commenters noting "Charlie Sheen did more for HIV education than most UN events do." Sheen spoke out for HIV prevention, citing the studies as motivation, later adding he was "humbled" to "be of service."

Charity work
Sheen was the 2004 spokesperson for the Lee National Denim Day breast cancer fundraiser that raised millions of dollars for research and education regarding the disease. Sheen stated that a friend of his died from breast cancer, and he wanted to try to help find a cure for the disease.

A major donor and supporter of Aid For AIDS since 2006, Sheen was honored with an AFA Angel Award, one of only a few ever given, at the nonprofit's 25th Silver Anniversary Reception in 2009. In addition to his financial support, he has volunteered to act as a celebrity judge for several years for their annual fundraiser, Best In Drag Show, which raises around a quarter of a million dollars each year in Los Angeles for AIDS assistance. He has brought other celebrities to support the event, including his father, actor Martin Sheen. Sheen's interest in AIDS was first reported in 1987 with his support of Ryan White, an Indiana teenager who became a national spokesperson for AIDS awareness after being infected with AIDS through a blood transfusion for his hemophilia.

On March 27, 2008, Sheen and Jenna Elfman co-hosted the Scientology-affiliated New York Rescue Workers Detoxification Project charity event.

Sheen donated one dollar from each ticket sold from his "My Violent Torpedo of Truth/Defeat is Not An Option Show" 2011 tour to the Red Cross Japanese earthquake Relief Fund.

In 2011, Sheen took on a Twitter challenge by a grieving mother to help critically ill babies born with congenital diaphragmatic hernia by supporting the Association of Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia Research, Awareness and Support (CDHRAS).

Sheen is a lifelong fan of the Cincinnati Reds. In August 2012, he announced that he would donate $50,000 to the team's community fund, which supports various charities. The donation came after the team raised another $50,000 in an attempt to get sportscaster Marty Brennaman to shave his head on the field after a Reds victory. After Brennaman shaved his head, Sheen offered to match the previous donation total.

Political views
In a 2015 interview, Sheen described himself as a "constitutional Republican". Sheen discussed his desire of running for U.S. President in 2016. Despite having been an active critic of the Bush administration during the office years, Sheen spoke fondly of George W. Bush in 2014 and defended his service as president by stating: "He did the best he could with what he was confronted with, and it is beyond anything I can comprehend".

Sheen has been publicly scathing against former president Donald Trump. In 2016, he labelled Trump a "charlatan" and wished death upon him.

September 11 attacks
Sheen is an outspoken advocate of the 9/11 truth movement. On September 8, 2009, he appealed to President Barack Obama to set up a new investigation into the attacks. Presenting his views as a transcript of a fictional encounter with Obama, he was characterized by the press as believing the 9/11 Commission was a whitewash and that the former George W. administration may have been responsible for the attacks.

Anti-vaccination
Sheen is staunchly opposed to vaccinations. After separating from Denise Richards, he sent a legal notice to his daughters' physician stating his lack of consent to vaccinate them. The dispute over vaccines seems to have played an important role in the failure of the marriage. Richards said in an interview in 2008, "When I vaccinated Sam, he accused me of poisoning her. And I knew when he said that that the marriage wasn't going to work."

Awards and nominations
Sheen has received numerous accolades including a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor – Television Series Musical or Comedy for Spin City in 2002. He was Golden Globe-nominated for Two and a Half Men in 2005 and 2006. He was nominated for the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series for Two and a Half Men from 2006 to 2009. He also received nominations for three Screen Actors Guild Awards, a Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards, four People's Choice Awards, and three Teen Choice Awards. He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1994.

Talk:Imperial County, California

Least wealthy of all California counties?
Are you sure that Imperial County is the least wealthiest of all of the California counties? Isn't Tulare County less wealthy? --fpo 02:55, August 16, 2005 (UTC)

Tulare county is 3rd poorest in California, while neighboring Kings County is second place and the poorest title does belong to Imperial county. The U.S. Census and state government web sites offer the kind of income distribution data. Imperial County should has prospered from the NAFTA economic boom of the 1990's, then the concept of a mainly agricultural economy means wages are dangerously low. Imperial county is treated like a poor bastion it is by visitors and businessmen from the state's urban centers. However, there was significant growth and development in Mexicali in neighboring Mexico that provided income gains in a region not considered economically stable. Mike D 26 16:38, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

 * It all depends on the definition of "the least wealthy". In 2000, Imperial County had the lowest income per capita, Modoc County had the lowest income per household, Tulare County had the highest percentage of people below the poverty line. --Itinerant1 06:39, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

 * Imperial County was once viewed to have an above average annual personal income index in the mid 20th century, but has fallen considerably to be among the 100 lowest of US counties in the 1990's and 2000's. The county unemployment rate is hovering above 25%, the highest in all of California and the official federal poverty rate now claims 40% of the county's population. The great recession of 2008 had a huge impact on the Imperial Valley than most of the country and locals are concerned on the political, social and economic instability in nearby Mexico has on the border region, while Imperial County has a large undocumented immigrant community. + Mike D 26 (talk) 16:04, 22 October 2009 (UTC)

Immigration
You can't have a line like this: "However, massive immigration from Mexico started placing tremendous burdens on the county's services and quality of life. " without documentation. I grew up in the Imperial Valley and increasing corporate control of farming could just as easily be blamed for the decline in real wealth of the region. Scapegoating immigrants without documentation is just wrong. Halfelven (talk) 07:57, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Edits to the History Section
Relatively minor. Eliminated the description "Anglo-Americans" as there is no cite indicating that the American population who settled the area after the Mexican American war were predominately Americans with English heritage. If the actual intent was to describe the population as White Americans that might be ok, but, even using White Americans instead doesn't really add to the article; using Americans should be fine. Also deleted "the world's only artificial inland sea" from the description of the Salton Sea. First, it's dubious to call Salton Sea an actual Sea, it's really a lake (see Wikipedia Page on Salton Sea), but its just called a sea because of its salinity and probably because of its relatively large size for the region. Second, it can be argued that the Salton Sea is artificial, as the areas latest iteration as a lake was created by human error. However, the depression that forms the Salton Sea has been created several times in the past by natural forces. The life-cycle of the lake starts as a dry depression (area below sea-level) then is flooded, mainly by the Colorado River, and becomes a fresh-water lake, then slowly evaporates overtime becoming salty and then completely evaporates back into dry desert until the next flood. It just so happens that the latest iteration was partially caused by man. The original plan was to divert some Colorado River water to the depression and use the lake bed for farming, but, the plan went wrong and the whole depression was instead flooded creating the modern  form of the lake. But, the lake, per se, was certainty not planned as an artificial anything, and its existence is really just part of the natural cycle of the area, only the last flood was helped by people. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WJF3 (talk • contribs) 00:33, 28 July 2018 (UTC)

The article mentions that Inyo county has 14 of California's 15 14ers. I'm assuming the isolated Mt Shasta in far northern CA is only California 14er not in Inyo County. If this is correct, could that be added to the bullet? JH032774 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.171.44.199 (talk) 15:56, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

 * According to Wikipedia's own article on the 14ers, there are only twelve of them in California, and two of those, Mount Shasta and White Mountain, are not even in Inyo County at all, so I don't even know where the data come from for this particular statement. If there are indeed fifteen of them, could you please name them individually? Otherwise, I think we should change those two numbers in the statement. Backspace (talk) 01:27, 7 April 2009 (UTC)

Unreferenced material on naming of county
We can place this back into the articles when it is verified: —hike395 (talk) 21:38, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

For many years it has been commonly believed that the county derived its name from the Mono tribe of Native Americans name for the mountains in its former homeland. Actually the name came to be thought of, mistakenly, as the name of the mountains to the east of the Owens Valley when the first whites there asked the local Paiutes what the name of the mountains to the east was.

The local Paiutes responded that that was the land of Inyo. They meant by this that those lands belonged to the Shoshone tribe headed by a man whose name was Inyo. Inyo was the name of the headman of the Panamint band of Shoshone people at the time of contact when the first whites, the Manly expedition of 1849, wandered, lost, into Death Valley on their expedition to the gold fields of western California. The Owens Valley whites misunderstood the local Paiute and thought that Inyo was the name of the mountains, when actually it was the name of the chief, or headman, of the tribe that had those mountains as part of their homeland.

"Indian George," a fixture of many of the stories of early Death Valley days, was Inyo's son. Indian George's Shoshone name was "Bah-Vanda-Sa-Va-Nu-Kee," which means "The Boy Who Ran Away," a name he was given when he became terrified of the whites and their wheeled wagons and huge buffalo, none of which the Shoshone had ever seen before when the Manly party came wandering down Furnace Creek Wash in December of 1849. In 1940, when Bah-vanda was around 100 years old, J.C. Boyles, a Panamint Shoshone who had become educated, came back to the Panamint valley and interviewed Bah-Vanda at length about the early days of his life, including the events of 1849, and it is in this interview that Bah-vanda refers to his father, Inyo. [The Desert Magazine, February, 1940]

Largest open-pit mine?
Regarding the line: "Kern County is home to the world's largest open pit mine at Boron, which mines borax." I believe this to be false. It is California's largest open-pit mine, and it may be the world's largest borate mine, but there's several larger open-pit mines in the world. http://borax.com/

Media Market
Regarding the comment that Kern County is one of TWO counties split by Nielsen into two media marketplaces. While this is certainly notable, I believe there are are more than two in California alone. Off the top of my head I can think of Riverside (split between Los Angeles/Palm Springs/Phoenix) and Solano (split between San Francisco and Sacramento). To make things even more interesting in the case of Riverside, stations from the El Centro-Yuma DMA are more considered the "local market" in the Phoenix DMA viewing area, and at least one TV station from San Diego is received in the Temecula-Murrieta area (Los Angeles DMA). I believe San Bernardino for statistical purposes is considered Los Angeles DMA, but Arbitron, a former Nielsen competitor, placed the eastern half of San Bernardino in its "Phoenix ADI", and I believe a few Las Vegas stations are received in this area as well. Anyway getting on a tangent, here as it is not germane to the case of Kern County, just pointing out that I believer there are more than two in California alone. --Larry G 09:39, 27 July 2007 (UTC)jhghjkghu

???? The Grapes of Wrath was set in Oklahoma, and Santa Clara County, where Steinbeck also resided, when he wrote it. It was not set in Kern County. 08:55, 1 October 2012 (UTC)

Geographic Area
I believe Kern County is the Third Largest county in geographic area for California not the "contiguous United States". Can someone double check this, I couldn't find were the US census lists counties by geographic size. Many websites state Kern as third largest in CA and Coconino County, Arizona as Second Largest in US. Inyo County claims to be third largest in US, see: http://www.inyocounty.us/Sheriff/ Braymond (talk) 18:00, 8 December 2009 (UTC)

Re: History/American phase: Article claims that Buena Vista County (proposed county prior to establishment of Kern County in 1866) had until 1859 to be formally organized, but failed to do so. I do not find any documentation supporting 1859 deadline for Buena Vista County. Rather, I find 2 pertinent acts. The first (1855 Stats, Chap. 161, April 30,1855) sets an August 1, 1855 deadline, which if not met, is extended to August 1, 1856. The second (1856 Stats, Chap. 81, April 16,1856) merely changes boundaries of proposed Buena Vista County, but does not extend deadline from August 1, 1856. I have searched index of California Legislative Acts from 1855 through 1859 and do not find any legislaion further extending deadline to 1859. I will wait 30 days for others to correct my observation, and if no correction, will change article to show 1856, rather than 1859, deadline for proposed Buena Vista County deadline.

Re: History/American Era: Article claims that in 1866, Kern County was formed from southern portion of Tulare County, part of Los Angeles County and part of San Bernardino County. The legislation initially creating Kern County mentions only Tulare and Los Angeles Counties as sources. (Calif. 1865-1866 Stats., Chap. 569.) I have searched that entire volume of California statutory archives and find no other 1866 legislation expanding Kern County territory, from San Bernardino County or elsewhere. Thus, the article is at least erroneous in declaring that territory was taken from San Bernardino County in 1866 to form part of Kern County. What I have said so far does not rule out the possibility of such occurring subsequent to 1866. However, suggesting that this is not the case is the Wikipedia article on California Counties, which lists only Tulare and Los Angeles Counties as the source for Kern County and also the Wikipedia article on San Bernardino County which mentions a later removal of territory from San Bernardino County in the formation of Riverside County, but not mentioning any removal of territory from San Bernardino County relative to Kern County. Finally, the current article on Kern County does not cite any source as authority for claim that territory was transferred from San Bernardino County to Kern County, either at the time of the latter county's formtion or at any later time. Accordingly, I will wait 30 days to see if anyone suggests a basis for retaining San Bernardino County as a source of a portion of Kern County, and if none is forthcoming, I plan to delete reference to San Bernardino County in this part of the article.

Serious issue with missing CDPs
There are are lot of CDPs in Kern County that are not mentioned anywhere in the correct section on this page, and also don't have Wikipedia pages even though they are automatically notable enough through GEOLAND. You can see the municipalities of the county by zooming in on this official Census map: https://data.census.gov/cedsci/map?q=Kern%20County,%20California&layer=VT_2020_160_00_PY_D1&mode=selection&loc=35.2951,-119.0375,z7.7349 ('Place' layer on and centered on Kern County). Many of the places surrounding Bakersfield are not anywhere on Wikipedia! BhamBoi (talk) 08:32, 12 November 2022 (UTC)

 * And you could perhaps tell us which those are? We list 50 or so CDPs, but it's possible some were missed. --jpgordon𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇 15:07, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
