NEWPORT-MESA -Costa Mesa
High School students never saw the writ-
ten work of their peers titled, ·Sex in the
'90s," "Some thoughts on Sex" and other
related articles.
And because of that, the Newport-
Mesa Unified School District may be ta.k-
en to court. The controversial poems and
articles written by the high school's jour-
nalism students but never published have
also motivated the school board to revisit
and revise its policies on student publica-
tions.
In a nutshell, the district's revision says
a teacher will regulate the contents of

Dorothy Stra~, wife of former mayor, dies at 83
NEWPORT BEACH
Dorothy Strauss, whose tireless
vohmteerism stretched from uni·
verslty campuses to the food lines
at Share Our Selves, died
Wednesday morning at the age of
83.
Mrs. Strauss, who bad been
bcwptta»-d for about a week fol-
lowing lung surgery, died of com-
plications from that operation,
family memhen said.
Along with her husband, Don,
former· Newport Beach mayor,
who died in 1995, Mrs. Strauss
donated countless of hours of vol-
unteer work and money to a long
list of local organizations, all in
hopes of making Newport-Mesa
a better place to li~.
Prom Don Strauss' 12 years on
the Newport Beach Qty Council
preceded by a decade of teJVice
the Newport-Mesa Unlfted
School District board to Dorothy's
work with the Girl Scouts, Share

alumni usod-

Strausses leave
behind a
beloved legacy
of service.

this community
DOl'o8ry Straw then most peo-
ple realize
because they did it quietly,• said
Jean Watt, who .served on the City
Council with Don Strauss and
worked on numerous community
efforts with h1I wife over the
years. •ne Strausses were stead-
fast about caring about the com-
munity.•
Karen McGllnn, director of
~ Our:Selves. called Strauss a
•wonderful volunteer.•
"She bad a great empathy for
the people,• she said. •She bad
that genuine touch of oare."
The Strausses met in 1938
while doing state-sponsored
sodal work in the San Joaquin
Valley, where they helped Mid-
west farming families displaced
by the Dust Bowl get a fresh start
in California.
They married in 1943, moved
to Lido Isle in 1957 and soon after,·
embarked c;>n a 40-year campaign
of community work. activism and
elected service.
Mrs. Strauss graduated from
UC Befkeley, later ea.med a mas-
ter's degree in English literature
from UCI and taught for 21 years
at Golden West College in Hunt-
ington Beach before retiring in
1993.
She remained a staunch sup-
porter of public universities until
her death.
In June, to honor the memory
of her late husband, Mrs. Strauss
aeated the Donald A. Strauss
Public Service Scholarship Foun·
dation. which gave $10,000 schol·
arsh1ps to 10 California college
juniors each year to help pay for
public service projects created
and carried out by the students.
The creation of the scholarship
foundation was just one thing
Mrs. Strauss did on behalf of
higher education, as she alJo
served on the board ot dilettors of
UCl's HumaniUes A.aodation.
Mrs. Strauss is surm,d by two
sons, Gordon and Duncan,
daughter Nancy netge and three
grandchildren.
Funeral semoes for Mrs. Strauss
were still being organized on
Wednesday, family memben said.
In lieu of flowers, the Strauss
family asks that contributions be

crone1 from Halloween would
have ta.ken to the picket lilies to
protest Margaret Hamilton's
deliciously malevolent portrayal
of the wicked witch'in "The
Wizard of Oz."
Surely, they would have
cranked up a battery of letter-
writing machines to battle the
evils personified iD Uie vintage
long-running sitcom,
"Bewitched.•
Indeed, a witch like Saman-
tha, who wreaked havoc with a
mere wiggle of bet cute Jittle
nose, was probably more
depraved than a scraggly crone
with warts on her schnoz.
I recall an op-ed piece in the
TI.mes in which the writer dis-
cussed her problems with Hal-
loween, which she termed "a ,
holiday steeped in sorcery and
the occult."
So what? Do not we God-
feating people -of all persua-
sions -have faith strong
enough to defeat Halloween's
eclectic array of evil spirits?
Are we that uptight? Isn't
there an overabundance of
more dreadful things to worry
about?
After considerable searching,
I finally located a genuine
witch.
Her name is E'pona and she
is a Wisconsin college student.
She loves •art, music, animals,
writing and enjoying the beauty
of Mother Earth.•

"Some pagans who dance

Aha, but what about casting'
spells and curses? :
"Can we? Probably. Will we?
Not on your llf e, bucko," said
Epona, citing that section of the
witches' code which dictates:
.. As long as you. harm no one,
do what you will ... This means,
whatever action you undertake,
it can't harm anyone, includina
yourself."
Somehow, I fail to find dan-·

IN TH! IEGINNNi
The religloua um of the group,
known around the wortd as the
Body of C.bJist Fellowship, fanned
30 yean ago under the informol
leadership of Marie Kolasinski, tbe
76-year-old grandmother who
remain.a the group's spiritual leader
and fiery spokeswoman.
When the group came togethet.
Kolasinski was a housewife, moth-
er of four and sell-described "old
hippie" whose Swan Drive home
played host to mostly young people
traveling up and down the Califor-
nia coast.
Initially, the Christian fellowship
~as informal and loose, with Bible
studies and religious re~eats fre-
quently held at the beach or by the
pool at Kolasinski's home.

Out of a seed of four women
qui1tiDg together in a garage and
selling their wares at local swap
meets and aaft fairs grew a fiedg-
ling enterprise with a small shop in
Fountain Valley.
Nearly 20 years later, the seed
bas blossomed into the Piecemak-
ers Country Store, a sprawling
12,000-square-foot Mecca for
lovers of country flair from around
the world that remains the group's
primary source of income.

•'Jbat was the first inkling we had
that something was drastically
wrong. lbat'J when it all started."
But as it grew, the Piecemakers
began to become more well-known
around the world and took on some
full-time members, who began to
explore other ways of building a
farnily around the idea of glorifying
Jesus Christ.
Today, about 40 Piecemakers -
some men, but mostly women
ranging ·in age from 8 to 76 -live
communally in eight houses the
group owns in Mesa Verde, just a
short walk from where many work.
L------~--------------------------------------------------------~------------------~ That confrontation -followed
by dozens of others jutt like it with
a long list of government tmpec.
tors -has Jed the group to a date
ln Harbor Munidpal Court.
The next step, it y.-as decided,
was to go into business together.
OPEN FOR BUSINESS
At first, the vision of what that
business would be was blurry.
Guided by messages they said
were sent to them straight from
God, the members brainstormed
ideas on what type of business their
lord was pointing them toward.
•At first, I honestly thought we
were going to open a foot-washing
place, a shop where people could
come to get their feet washed,"
Kolasinski recalled. "We talked
.
Others do woodworking or take
care of the group's children, while
another small group lives and
works at the Piecemakers store and
other businesses in the small town
of Ridgway, Colo.
The Piecemakers live together
in groups of six to eight per house
and sh.are cookmg, grocery shop-
ping and other duties, as well as
their money and most other person-
al property -all in accordance
with Acts II of the Bible.
Sex, even among married cou-
ples who join the group together, is
not allowed, and marriage is
described as •at best, a shadow of
what Jesus has for us and at worst
... a self-serving and manipulative
institution."
"This walk with .{esus is not
easy," Kolasinski said. "It's forsak-
ing everything else for: God. We've
all given up our natural families to
be part of this family."
Katie Needham. a 43-year-old
Fontana native who stumbled upon
Kolasinski and the group •by coin-
cidence• in the late 1960s, said she
and many other longtime Piece-
ma.kers found a supportive, loving
and spiritual home with the group.
"I just left everything and came
right away,• Needham said. •For
me, it was like there was no doubt
in my mind."

Steve Brenner, 39, a buildJng
contractor who joined the group in
the early 1980s, said the lord paved
the way for him to join the Piece-
makers.
"I felt like this was just some-
place I was supposed to be and the
doors opened,• said Brenner,
whose mother and two sister also
belong to the group.
CHURCHES THAT ABUSE
While the Piecemakers portray
themselves as just God-loving qUil-
ters, others have labeled them with
much more sinister motives.
Ronald Enroth, a Westmont Col-
lege professor who studies reli-
gious cults, claimed in b1s book -
~ 13229 ........ Rd.
5(l6.0llQ3
P\lLLll10N 1o&n. n a .._ Id. mGJ ,
•Churches That Abuse" -that
Kolasinski employs a dangerous
and unlikely mix of verbal and
physical intimidation and Christian
theology to keep her flock in line.
The book, based largely on
interviews Enroth did with former
Piecemakers who fled the group,
alleged Kolasinski regularly
screamed obscenities at group
members and required vasectomies
for some male members.
THE HOLY WAR
Over the last decade, the Piece-
makers have been making news-
paper headlines not for their quest
to walk in the footsteps of Jesus,
but rather for butting heads with
. Piecemakers' co-founder Anne ·
Sorensen -the only member
named on the dty civil complaint ,
-is expected today to plead not
guilty to charges she violated the
city's munkipal code by not
receiving a required $100 special
events permit for the September
parking lot musical performance.
If convicted, Sorensen could
face up to one year 1n jail and a
$1,000 fine.
"We. call that permit a bribe,·
Kolasinski said. • And they're just
up in arms because we won't bow
down to them.•

"It's future is limitless. One
day it will rival the museums
of large cities, including our
neighbor Los Angeles," said
Joan Riach, museum patron, in
an earlier interview.
Martin, founder and manag-
ing partner of Enterprise Part-
ners, has thrown his support
behind the museum expansion
while Art of Dining has been
elevated to even greater
heights at the hands of his
wife.

which wu held at the Pour

The tigµre makes Art of Din-
ing the highest-grossing chari-

for a llngle ~-related charity.
It 11 not only the financial
support that distinguishes the
Martini. They also have
brought to the museum a point
of view and awareness relative
to the international art scene.
Last season's Art of Dining,
for instance, attracted interna-
tion al financier and art collec-
tor David Rockefeller.
It was a mark of signifi-
cance, attracting world-class
art patrons to the museum and
to the region. World-renowned
painters and sculptors have
also graced both the museum
and its events of support.
said Houaton. .
Among those attendi~ the
ceremony were, Manha and
Darrel Anderson. John and
Teri Kennady, Gerald and Ben-
ta Buck, and Jim Doti, presi·
dent of Chapman University.
Martin has served as a trustee
of Chapman for the past
decade.
Gil and Victoria Levasseur
were also in the crowd, along
with Carolyne John.son, assist-
ing with the organizational
effort.
As the crowd dined on tem-
pura scallops and stuffed quail
prepared by Chef Rainier of
The Pacific Club, a retinue of
toasts atid tributes to the hon-
ored couple flowed. ·
The Pacific Art Foundation
is a nonprofit organization
founded in 1995 to establish "a
premiere collection of 19th and
20th century Americ~ art that
can be shared by the commu-
nity to encourage greater
appreciation and education,"
Of particular note, the
address of Orange County
Museum of Art Director Naomi
Vme, along with kind words
from good friends Erin Trunel,
Dennis McGrievy, and Gil
Levasseur and Jim Doti.
The $17 5 dinner tickets
raised more than $12,000 for
the foundation.

Ollly fitting that chefs at the
N4Mpo.rt Beach restaurant make
tWr own pasta and sauces and
~ate the dishes into the var-
ied menu.
:rbe tpadous comer restau-
raat, located in the Newport
North Center off MacArthur
Bpulevard, offers a plethora of
Uateresting Italian dishes in a
comfortable atmosphere.
1 My sister, brother and I stum-
bled upon the restaurant while
running errands one Sunday
aftl!moon. The outside is simple,
with large tinted windows and a
plain, colored sign. The interior
is airy with painted brick pat-
terns on the walls, a dark ceiling,
booths and tables ..
. After we nestled into a booth,
we were served a basket of
homemade twisted bread sticks:
dense and chewy morsels with a
hint of salt dotting the golden
brown crust.
Marco Polo Italian Eatery gets you Into a perfect Italian lunch or dinner.
We started off with two appe-
tizers: the nachos napoli ($3.95),
pasta chips with toppings and
acl:ompanying sauce; and the
cr(>stini spinach pesto ($2.95), a
foccacia bread with pesto,
sptnach and pinenuts.
7fhe pasta
nap:hos were an
inYentive twist on
the Mexican ver-
si6n made with
ta(tilla chips. The
heaping plate of deep fried pasta
cqlps were topped with diced
tof,natoes, plain and kalamata
ol!\res, pepperocinis and moz-
zarella cheese and came with a
siGe of gorganzola rosemary
cheese sauce.
The best part of the appetizer
was the tangy cheese sauce -a
piquant, deliciously rich sauce
that perfectly complimented the
chips. I even found myself dip-
ping the other
appetizer into the
white sauce to
give it an extra
kick.
The crostini
was about the size of a small piz-
za: a large round bread, one half
covered in spinach and gorgan-
zola cheese; the other half
topped with pesto and pinenuts.
The crusty bread met the other
ingredients nicely -a tasty, sat-

For other starters, try the
ca.rpaccio ($6.95) or the calamari

with marinara sauce.
My sister liked the fact that
she could order something other
th.an spaghetti with tomato sauce
-which is the case at some Ital-

So we both tried a pasta dish and
my brother went for the veal.

. . ...,,
I n response to the Oct. 2i 1 artl-
de about my AOL •cam-
paign• to support Jason '·
Rausch, the Newport Harbor "
teen ~ed with manslaught~
con to the fatal crash -
involving several of his class· '· mates. I have a few things to saf
about it. I feeJ that the artide
didn't get my message across
the way I had hoped.
First of all, just because I am
on the •outside• does not mean
that I don't have a right to state
my opinion. Everybody I know
has an opinion about the acci-
dent. and I don't think it makes
our opinions any less important•,
simply because we were not ~
there.
This was an accident that has :
greatly affected a lot of people, :
and not only the ones who hap-~
pened to be there, in the cai. •
No, I was not there, and for tbat
I am grateful. !
I think there wasn't enough :
empNsls 0(\, ltle'fact that I did •
have a lot of support from a lot •
of people. I am not the only per-
son who feels that Jason Rausch
should not go to prison, and
that is something that was basf-
calty left out of the artkle. I was
· not alone in this, and I should
not have been made to feel that
I was.
There have been many
rumors of what went on that
night, and different reasons for
the crash, some of which are
likely to be brought up in court.
The only thing that would
change my mind, however, is if
it is learned that Jason flipped
the Blazer Intentionally.
Although TWMn" there, I think .
itls safe to say that it was unin-
tentio~I, an accident. ,
No, I don't know Jason per-
sonalty. About 98% of the letters
I received pro-and anti-Jason-
were from people who, like me,
don't know Jason personally.
Are we, as citizens of this coun-
ty, not allowed then, to speak
our minds about it? Are we not
allowed to have opinions, or to •
stand up for what we believe inl
t didn't need to look into any·
body's •nttle baby face• or "big
brown eyes• to know where I
do stand. The majority of •
responses I received were from
people who have never laid eyes
on Jason Rausch. so this obvious:
ly wasn't a determining factor i'l
where they stood, as well. •
I wasn't trying to "plead ~
Jason's Innocence.• I admitted t4
reporter Christopher Goffard :
(but which was faile.d to be ·•
mentioned in the article), that I :
feel Jason did make mistakes. '
I also never said that Jason :
shouldn't be punished. I feel :
that there are other, more posi-•
tfve alternatives to jail. I think it!
would be much more beneficial.
to many If Jason, along with th4t!
other sufVM>n of the crash,· :
were made to speak of safety
awa~ness at high school ~
blies, junior high schools. driver:
education dasses, even AA :
meettngs. •
I have lffmed a lot from this•
accident. Uke I've mentioned to;

~my life more. I've ;
lwned 1Nt life is a precious '
