Alex Coolman DAILY PILOT COSTA MESA -Once they're all huge international rock stars, the members of Kaster 1roy plan to take their act to the next level. "I want to light my drum kit on fire,· said 11\ad Nobuhara, the 17-year-old drummer. Ryan Stockwell. the 16-year- old lead guitarist, said be plans to acquire some kind of mas- sive, earsplitting amplifier. Also a possibility, the band decided. was the idea of adding a few elephants to the stage show. But Kaster 'Troy -with no flames, pachyderms or mon- ster amps-is already rocking out They're rocking on a small scale, it's true, but that'& they way they like it. The group plays their first big show tonight at Chain Reaction in Anaheim. For the group members, who dfe all Costa Mesa resi- dents and <::orona del Mar High seniors, the satisfaction of being in a band has a lot more to do with ma.king music that peo- ple enjoy than trying to cash in on some vague idea of fame. The group -its name is drawn from that of the villain of the 1997 movie "Face/Off" - plays up-tempo pop punk. the sort of thing that bands like CONRAD LAU I OAJLV Pl.OT Pop punk band Kaster Troy plays at Chain Reactton in Anaheim tonight From l~ft, Chrts Barker, Thad Nobuhara and Randy Myers watch guitarist Ryan Stockwell fly by. "' For more information about the show and Kaster Troy, see the band's Web site at http://www.ocbands.com/ kastertroy. Bad Religion, Green Day and Blink 182 have made famous. Their demo CD, with its crunchy guitars, popping snares and pleasantly snotty vocals sounds, like something that would sound right at home on KROQ, Los Angeles' alter- native music station. With one important qualifi- cation, though:· "We're not rap metal!" insisted Randy Myers, 17, the singer and rhythm guitarist. For all their catchy riffs and fast rhythms, Kaster 'Troy is a fairly introspective act: The exuberance of Myers and Stockwell is balanced by the thoughtful presence of Nobuhara and bassist Chris Barker, 17. The band.mates seem happy -and even a little surprised - that people enj_oy their music. "The fact that we can get 50 people to pay money and drive half an hour to see us, I think, is amazing," Myers said. But this modest success is not something that's gone to their heads. "I don't want to say, 'Screw college and screw the rest of my life' just to follow some lit- tle dream," Myers said. ~Punk rock iS so good now. It's hard (to compete] " So Kaster 'Troy is stick:lng to what they en1oy, and hoping other people dig it. The flames and elephants, for now, can wait.

The hearings were for a development proposal for a site at 2100 and 2130 canyon Drive, and for per- mits for the Q!Club Cafe, 1525 Mesa Verde Drive East. WHAT rT MEANS: Instant Jungle Prop- erties, LLC. owner of the canyon Drive property, had originally proposed a 22- unit development for the site. but redesigned the plans after hearing neigh- bors' and planning staff's concerns. The new proposal includes 18 single-family homes. modified grading and a plan to retain the existing ficus tree at the site. The issue was continued to allow city consultants to change project documents to reflect the new design proposal.

The issue was postponed to give staff time to give adequate publlc notice. SORRY, NO BOOZE WHAT HAPPENED: The commission denied a beer and wine license request for Roman's Mar- ket. 2400 Newport Blvd., Suite A-3. WHAT rT MEANS: The mar- ket, which sells conve- nience items and deli prod- ucts, will not be allowed to sell alcohol. Four licenses are allowed in the neighborhood, according to state Alcoholic Beverage Control, and five already exist. The market is also in a high-crime area, a condition that prevents the commis- sion from granting an exception to the state Alco- holic Beverage Control reg- ulation. WHAT THEY SAID: •tt's unfortunate that [the market) happens to be located in a place that is high<rime and where there are already other licenses," said Commissioner Ketrlno Foley, speaking to Roman's Market representative AnNmde Roman.

The city is scheduled to face Thrneny in trial later this month. At a City Coundl meeting last week, Michael Wool- bright. the director of the House of Sarah in Mesa North, pleaded for the city to allow his stllte-contracted halfway house to remain open. He said the home, Orange County's only work furlough program exclusively for women, has helped its res- idents re-integrate mto soci- ety. •we have to be consistent with our orctinance, • Mona- han said. Although police receive frequent calls about suspi- cions and noise complaints at many of the city's group homes, no major &rimes stem- ming from a home has been reported recently. · However, the council this spring passed the orctinance that makes it illegal to oper-· ate a group home with more than six occupants in a resi- dential neighborhood. Almost two years ago, the city -after repeated com- plaints from residents -com- missioned a study to count bow many halfway houses, drug and alcohol treatment centers, and nursing homes were located in Costa Mesa. The report found that more than 104 group homes were in the city. Of those, 62 were reported to be drug and alco- hol treatment centers, malung the concentration of such homes here to be more than to~ times the county aver- age.- The report also found that as many as 20 of the group homes operating in residen- tial neighborhoods had been violating city ordinances. Most of the neighbors of the homeless shelter on Cork Lane said they ctidn't have specific complaints about the home. But four families on the block saJd they would rather have a family Llvmg there. "I guess she's doing all right.• said Lee Fleener, 66, who lives three doors away from Namaste's shelter. "But I wish they were gone, of course. It's bad for the neigh- borhood." SCOUTS CONTINUED FROM 1 Bell climbed into a Zodiac and motored over to the stalled boat, towing it to safe- ty. The identity of the boat occupants is unknown. Their boat, it turned out, was a rental. Ada.ms and Bell towed the boat back to the rental com- pany. ·we have no idea why the engine failed,• Adams said. ·we do know that they didn't have a radio and they didn't have a paddle. ... They were sitting there quite awhile. Nobody seemed to come to their rescue.• lt's not the first time the Argus has helped out boaters in distress. But the antique vessel, which was built in Denmark in 1905, is hardly intended to be a rescue craft. The only real ~dvantage it had over most of tbe other yachts in the water that day was that it was staffed by a group of curiout Boy Scouts. THOMAS CONTINUED FROM 1 help for Thomas is more than a fight with bureaucracy: it's an attempt to hold together the last remnants of her family. On a recent afternoon. Meek was sorting through a stack of paper, forms she'd printed from the Internet. The papers were dense with terms like • unnec- essary institutionalization" and "litigation strategies,· and Meek looked like she'd had about as much of this kind of reading as she could take. Thomas stood at the front door, pulling unhappily al the handle and complaining that he wanted to go outside. "Jn a minute." Meek told him. "We'll go and get you some ice creanr. • These kinds of minor par- enting tasks -getting a treat, buying a toy -are things 40- year-old Meek can handle. But Thomas, who bas develop- mental disorders that cause him to be impatient, temperamental and sometimes violent, needs more than a few gentle bribes. l:homas needs some profes- sional help. And Meek says her efforts"to obtain it -from the county and the school district - haven't been fruitful. Though Thomas, who attends Step by Step preschool, is in a special education pro- gram, Meek is concerned that the school's approach -wtuch focuses on his learrung disabil- ities -isn't as broad as 1t should be. "It doesn't treat the behav- 10ral component of his prob- lem,· she said. The d.ltticitlty Meek is· hav- mg in getting help for her son has its roots in the nature of hls behavior. Though he's obVi- ously o troubled child, and though Meek can recite a list of injuf\es sbe's'. received at his handS, Thomas' behavior does not fit neatly into a single diag- nostic category. The most obvious behaviordl difficulties involve his unpre- dictable temper and certain physical quirks, such as hand fluttering and occasionally poor coordination. Meek thinks her son is autistic, and she's got doc- tors to say as much. But so far it's been imposs1- ble to get county and school district ofiidals to agree with this diagnosis and to provide the services -such as a par- enting aide -that Meek says she needs. The Regional Center of Orange County is the nonprof- it agency that contracts with the state of California to pro- vide services for people with developmental disabilities. Karen Tuylon a spokeswoman for the center, sald the process of getting services for a child can sometimes be challenging. ·It's hard for parents and families, too, 11 she saJd. "lt can be overwhelming.• However, Tuylor said the cat- egories used for· assessing lhe needs of mdiViduals are far from arbitrary. "It's ve ry comprehensive, and we do have specific crite- ria -medical, psychological and soaal assessments -: ihat are evaluated. "The needs are dei'ermifled on an individual basis·and we have certam guidelines that we follow for determining what ser- vtces• will be given. "If par- ents don't agree, they do have the right to appeal.· Both the Regional Center and the Newport-Mesa Unified School District are prohibited from discussing the cases of individual students. But Patrick Ryan, the director of special educabon for Newport-Mesa, S<Ud the district strives to pro- vide the best possible care for its students. "We're legally bound as a publlc enbty to provide the ser- vtces for students who are eli- gible, dJ1d we're also reqw:red to find out who's e ligible, and we have dll those processes 10 place.• RydJl said. For Meek. though, negob- a llng the bureaucracy has proved to be a tinng and expen- sive process. At d September meeting, she IS scheduled to negotiate with the Regional Center over the issue of what services Thomas should receive. But she says she worries that she won't have enough money to pay for the attorneys she needs to fight the case. "What I'm tryl.Og to get ts the chance lo keep my son, and to prevent hlm from going to an msbtution, • she said. SotiJ 7~ 'Pati.61~ Teak is now Affordable! We Buy Direct, EUminate the Middkman !
