By Tim Grenda, Daily Pilot COSTA MESA -A move by city officials to ban overnight parking in an area considered a haven for homeless people living in their cars has some residents of two nearby mobile home parks crying foul. On Monday, a new regulation went into effect that outlawed park- ing from 1 to 6 a.m. seven days a week on Old Newport Boulevard - a two-lane street that runs along the east side of the busy boulevard - between 15th and 17th streets. The road, divided from Newport Boulevard by a narrow landscaped median, ls lined by several small businesses and at least two 'mobile home parks that are affected by the new ban. City ottldals said the move was prompted by complairits from 20 area merchants that large rea.ation- al vehk:lee and other can parked on the m.et. often for days at a time, taking away valuable parking their customers and employees could be using. In a notice sent to affected busi- nesses and residents outlining the n,ew policy, offidal.s also said vehi- cles parked overnight along both sides of the street hampered street- sw~ping. But tome residents of the Bl Nido and Snug Harbor mobile home parks call the ovemlght parking ban 1n front of their homes unfair. · •If anfbo4y hu a rtgbt to park out there, it'• the~ w)lo 11ve here,• said m Nido rMklent John Harrts. Harris, WliO jj .c:.:Omlderlng starting a petition to try ~d revene the deci- sion, Mid many of the mobile home residents are elderly and have rela- tives or caretakers who come to help them -visits which often require an overnight stay. Since parking inside the mobile home park is generally .reserve<l to one space per mobile unit, parking on the frontage road is a must for vis- itors, h e said. Virginia Rockholt, another El Nido resident, said forcing all ca.rs to park on the property will make it hard for residents lik.e herself to get around. Rockholt, 54, uaes a cane and a motorized cart to travel longer di.s- tances and said the parking ban will force everyone to squeeze inside the narrow driveways. •If anybody ii parked outside [my mobile home], I can't get in,• Rock· bolt said. But Manager of n-amportatlon Services Peter Naghavi sald while he sympathizes with the realdentl who bemoan lOlin.g the convenient, free parking they had enjoyed within steps of bdr mobile homes, the dty has an obligation to provide parldno for its mercbantl in the commerda1 • briefly in the news 90 without power after short circuit in line A ahort-drcuit in a power line left 90 local custoDHP without power briefiy Monday afternoon, authorities said.

Next time I looked. the boat was listing to port, SWTOunded by a sea of mud. The deputy was gone; probably hitched a ride with a kayak that had passed astern of him a few hours earlier. Now, even a kayak couldn't float there. What had been a channel 20 feet wide and, at high tide, at least a few feet deep, was now pure mud. In this minus tide, a duck couldn't have pad- dled by. now. •Problems here are caused elsewhere,• Frank says. But they have to be resolved here. Which is why it's mOJ'e than a bit discouraging that I couldn't reach anybody at our supervisor's office, or the county's harbors office, who knew about this vital dredging project that's supposed to begin in 12 days. • AIED MAll'l'WS column runs Piler'f Thursday and Saturday.

Bark Park. Long paw of law has gone too far!· Readers chew over whether professional dog walker should be banned from Bark Park Yes, I do believe that as long as all professional dog walkers follow the same rules that other Bark Park users fol- low, and as long as they're responsible in their dog walk- ing duties, I strongly believe they should be allowed in Bark Park. Based on the fact that nannies use regular parks and I know that dog training classes are conducted on dty property at city parks, I think that the city ordinance is inconsistently applied to ban dog walkers from city parks. SUSANGROUX Newport Beach The Bark Park is a place where dogs go, accompanied by people. While the dogs are well-behav~ the people are not always. I have seen Gary Ballantyne and h1a dogs at the Bark Park when I have taken my dog, Watson the Great Dane. He ca.res for h1a dogs. He keeps an eye on his dogs. And I really don't under- stand why someone who brings food and causes the clogs to get excited and want the food, which is something a dog would do normally, is now going to cause Mr. Ballantyne to be banned from the park. Wu there a citation issued to the person who brought the food? StJSAN SMl11f NnpOrtlellcll I absolutely think that Gary Ballantyne should be allowed to use the dog park. Babysitters are allowed to take children to public parks and they're con- ducting business. I think there are so few places for dogs to go that this is a great thing for him to do. And definitely, I'm all for him being able to carry out bis business there. NANCYSHEPPNl!ll Newport Beach I reed the utlcle about Gary Ballantyne and bis canine babysitting service. Yes, I do believe that he-should be allowed to use the Bark Park. I feel that if he comes there with 15 dogs, it alleviates 15 other people coming along. I don't think he should be excluded from using the park. That's what it wu designed for and if you start setting rules excluding people you're going to end up with a lot bigger problem than you already have. I think that the 111ue remains to be M8l1 that the people were eating in the perk. They lhouldJ1't have been - they weN the ones breaking the law not him. And I am in full support of him continuing to UM -the perk. NANCY TIMMONS CodaM.a I can't tee what poalble dif- ference tt would make if the dog handler brings h1a charges at the same time or the.owners of the 15 dogs all lhowed up at the same time. What\ the dif- hnnclel lbe people that were eating there wete the ones . breaking the law -not the dog handl•. It 11 a dog park and that's what it's for. PATllCIA llGUl" Newport9wta Yes, ol coune, they lboukl be allowed to. It's like saying should a woman who needs a balrcut go into a beauty salon or not. That's aometbing that's really rldiculous. My IUppOrt is for this protea- sioaal dog walker, Gary Ballan- tyne. And I.also believe that the people who were sitting there ettting lunch ahould really be the ones who were cited, not the man who 11 brlnging his dogs into the dog park. U he bas that as a business, that's fine, we all deserve to make money, to make a living. REG McMAHON ColtaMeA I definitely think Gary Bal- lantyne ab.ould be allowed to return to the Colt4 Mesa Bark Park. What better place for a respomlbJe and proleaional dog walker lib him. I know Gary penonally and my dog, noovee, adores bbn. Why on earth would it even occur to anyone to eat in a plece full ol dogs runntng free?

I H0ages should.help the . system not criticize it By Gay Geiser-Sandoval A s a volunteer and parent of students in the New- port-Mesa School District, I am dismayed by the perception held by Newport Councilman John Hedges about our local school system, and his sugges- tion that we revert to many of the boring teaching methods that I endured 30 years ago. I agree the system has its problems, and I am often at board meetings pointing them out. But, the problem with blam- ing it all on •the system" or "the teachers" is that one should then expect every student to be per-· fonning at a sub-standard level . I know that 11 not true. My kids have attended Colta Mesa public ICboola llnce kindergarten and they have been in the top 1 % of whatever standardized test the d1strict was using that year. My 10th-grader and her friends did better on the PSAT than most high school junion across the nation. My 1eVenth- grader is reading boob that I read in college. So, how did these Costa Mesa High kids "make u· 11 the school system ls in so much troublel Dld the teachers only pay attention to them? Did these kids attend some private program in verb conjugation, dicUonary drills, and reading textbooks out loud? Did they get ·booked• on sentence diagntmmtng? Have they bad weekly tests in reading compre-· hension? No, none of these kids have taken any outside curriculum. nor did they participate in some spe- cial education grant. But, they all love to read and they do read for pleasure. They have found that the television bas an ol1 button and that there is a life without Nintendo. They can carry on a dinner convenation with adults. I agree that it might be in many student's best interest to group by ability. But. don't make these students take daily tests, and let them write essays about tneftnfngful subjects instead of making all tests in tl)e eaay for- mat. Don't let their class day be spent listen1.ng to each other read from boring textbooks. Right now, teachers are using many exciting teaching methods that "spice up the day", and encourage students to delve into subject matters on their own. In seventh grade science, students are designing their own space stations, which will be used to cany out their planned experi- ments. My student was shocked when she had to do the cost accounting for her group's pro- ject. and found out that the tax- payers spend billions to build space stations, but don't spend the money needed to !ix leaky school roofs. The space proposa.i, will be submitted to Boeing as part of the school's goal to let .. students see themselves in a : career. In ninth grade English. stu- dents read Steinbeck's •ot Mice_ and Men,• then put George on trial for Lenny's murder.

OT, BARONS PULL IT OUT, 58-55_ Fountain Valley's three-pointers and off-balance runners spell demise for Estancia quintet in Irvine World News Classic quarterfinal Wednesday night. By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot IRVINE -Though the 58-55 overtime loss to Fountain Valley High was indeed difficult for Estancia's boys basketball --tlO ltclnach. it could ~ 'COneeiv- ably been worse for the Eagles Wednesday in the champi- onship quar- terlinals of the Irvine World News Classic at University High. It could have been a game of H-0- R-S-E. That 's exactly what the Barons appeared to be playing during the 36- minute see- saw affair, which featured 10 Fountain Valley tbree- pointers (in 25 attempts). The bombing Barons' field-goal percentage from tbree- dom (40%) was, in fact. far superior to their standard inside the arc ( 11 of 44 for 25%). This long-range efficiency, including five three balls after the third period, combined with a couple other circus shots worthy of any H-0-R-S-E competi- tion, helped turn what appeared to be an uplifting come-from-behind win for the Eagles into a lamentable loss and a trip to the fifth-place semifinals Friday at 6 p .m.

All ot the suppo~ ca.st does a fine job as well. There ts also some remarkable. dnematogr~phy 1n this picture. One scene, shot from the deck of La Amlstad looking up the ship's wheel past Cinque into the starry sky, is memorable in my m!nd. Not to mention all of the shots within the ship's hold, the various courtrooms and jail t'ells, where light and shadow is used like the chiaroscuro painting tech- niques o1 a Dutch master. What I didn't expect from this serious drama was humor. Yet it is injected in minor doses, pri- marily in the observations of the Africans to one another regard- ing the behavior of the Ameri- cans. And I think it works to humanize them. I did find, however, that while I enjoyed the film and recom- mend it, it lacked the emotional punch and payoff I expected.

Our ne r" bd pretty grim and the daring 1oul8 wbo did put up · ta felt half guilty part of the time and defiant the ffilt of the time. Not much Chrittmaa feeling in the decoration1 during that time. I kept remembering that puaage from Mark 7:3-9, And while hf' wa11 at Bethany in the home of Simon the leper, •• he H t at thr table, a woman came with an alabuter Ouk of ointment of pUtt nard, nry coetly, and abe broke the ftatk and pored it over hia bear. But ~ere were aome who aaid to tbemtelvee indignantly, "Why wae the omtment thut wa1ted1 For thi.e ointment might have been sold for more than th... hundred denarii and given to the poor." And they reproached her. But Jeam aaid, "Let her alone; why do you trouble ht>r? She ha11 done a beautiful thin« to me. For you alway8 have the poor ~th you and whenever yoa will. you can do good to them; but you will not alway• baYe me. She bu done what ehe could; she baa anointNJ my body beforehand for burying. And truly, I eay to you, wbt."revt'r tht" ppel ia pracbed in the whole world, what aht" has done will ht-told in memory of her." I paa Chrittmaa lights can't match the devotion and love of that woman, but I know tome people who put them up with an attitudf' of joy and celebration -and u a true proclamation. I .like to ponder all the changee that have come to our world a8 a re.ult of what Jeem brought to u1 and did for us. Chri8tma11 to me i8 the celebration of it aD -the Advent of th.it amazing new word and way of life and aD the changea it bu been malting f'ver sinee -including in the livee of individuals .like you and me.

It ba11 become impouible for me to clearly visualize what lite would eeem like. how it would feel, il I did not know Jt"11us Chri8t. What would ma tt.-r? What would be the eeme of our striving? Othen do fine, evt'n better than I do, without Him. But I cannot imagine the hleaknf'l8 tht>rt' would be for me, if Cbriet wa1 suddenly yanked out of my lifr. Happily no one can do that to me or you.
