Thwsday as a Superior Court jury convict-
ed Steven Allen Abrams of murdering the
two children.
In a tense courtroom crowded with the
children's parents, their supporters and
friends, a clerk read .through the laundry
list of charges against Abrams: two counts
of murder, seven counts of attempted mur-
der and three counts of causing grievous
bodily injury.
He was found guilty on all counts.
As the verdicts were read, Abrams, 40,
sat in the impassive, hunched posture he
had assumed since the' trial began Aug.
17. He did not seem to react to the words
that were spoken or even look up from his
hands in bis lap.
The families of the victims, though,
were emotional. The mother of Sierra,
Cindy Soto, sobbed behind dark sunglass-

Skate park

• Charle Street location is
not deemed the ideal spot,

approve design plans.

DAILY P!lOT
COSTA MESA -'IJle city's
Pa.rks, Recreation Padlities and
Parkways Commission on Thursday
approved design plans for a skate
park on Charle Street, despite a am-
troversy brewing over the location.
·1 don't think Charle Street ii a
good location, but I don't want the
process stopped because [the cltyJ
has been too long without a park.
said parks commissioner Richard
Mehren. "It was ill-conceived to
move to this location, but that's
where it's at.•
The skate park plans include
ramps, half-pipes and rails for dlf·
ferent levels of skaters, a shaded
area for spectators and resting and
a restroom fadlity with compost toi-
lets.
Tue City Council approved plam
to put the skate park at Lions Park
last year, but changed its mind after
neighbors objected because of
noise and fiooding concerns.
Many skaters spoke in favor ol
the park at the meeting Wednesday.
•I think the skate park will
enhance the properties,• said ea.ta
Mesa resident Jim Gray. "We've
gotta do something for the children.
They have been waiting, and a year
for them is like 10 yea.rs for me.
Let's make it happen.•
Several residents spoke out
against the Charle site. however.
·1 don't know where the money
is coming from for all this, but there
are no sidewalks on the south end
of Charle,• sa.id Karen Larson, own-
er of an apartment building on the
street. "Children who are too young
to skate play there and people walk
on that street. If there ls more traffic
because of the backup of pick-up
and drop-off cars at the park. I'm
afraid people will be hit I doo't
know what sidewalla and ~
walks cost, but if we have this much
money, that's what we need to do
with it.

Leslie Oaussen can't quite under-

is wary of giving out information
online and won't reveal much about
her personal life to the media. Yet
Claussen, who performs today in Cos-
ta Mesa, will dig up, write about and
sing aloud ~er inneunost emotions
and memones.
About being abused by her stepfa-
ther as a child, and how that experi-
ence twisted her definition of love for
a time.
About having an alcoholic mother
who left home and then died while
away, without saying goodbye.
About having her disabled grandJ
mother take Claussen. her five sib-
lings, two cats and an liish setter into
berbome.
And she also sings about random
nameless neighbors in her building.
It's not a sad song, and it's not a happy
one. It's just a long thought about how
strange it is that there can be so many
people, so far apart.
Oaussen, 36, insists she doesn't
exdusively write sad songs. And if her
lyrics are at times sad, they're as much
about transcending grief as the griev-
ing itself. Because who wants to listen
to a depressing song?

Claussen-Huth said she sometimes

just listens, because it heals her. She
thinks the songs are heartfelt and from
no other place but her sistets soul.
"There's nothing you can't like

There are tribesmen in the

Some will tell you that the

swear it was invented for this
show.
Everybody has their own lit-
tle torch. U you get booted, the
host calls you up, front and
center, and snuffs out your lit-
tle torch with a hollowed-out
coconut. The host, former
"Access Hollywood" reporter
(perfect) Jeff Probst, calls up
the most solemn tone he can
muster and declares, "The
tribe bas spoken. It is time for
you to go."
The boot-ee then walks
slowly into the jungle night,
shoulders slouched, torch

stare at each other and wonder
who will survive the next
night's tribal council, hence
the name, "Survivor.•

Blls riders gather to
oppose route changes
• Some Costa Mesa residents at meeting say
new bus system, which goes into effect next
month, could eliminate their regular stops; the
plan is intended to straighten bus routes.
Jennifer Kho
DAILY PtlOT
SANTA ANA -Alfonso
Ramirez, a Cost.a Mesa resident
who relies on county buses to
get to worlc, bas a lot at stake.
He will lose an extra hour
and a half each day to his com-
mute if new bus routes, which
go into effect next month, a.re
changed as planned
Ramirez is one of dozens of
bus riders countywide who
gathered Thursday evening to
discuss the bus system plans.
Their concern is that the
new system - a plan that will
straighten many of the coun-
ty's crooked routes -will
result in more transfers and
longer bus rides.
•For any change (the
Orange County Transporta-
tion Authority) makes, at any
level, it has to take the people
into account or it won't work,"
Ramirez said in Spanish. •1
believe the OCTA should
reverse these changes.··
Ramirez lives at Pomona
Avenue and Wilson Street
and works at Del Taco at Bris-
tol Street and Sunflower
Avenue. He takes a bus route
that will no longer run
through the West Side -or
his stop on Harbor Boulevard
-once the changes go into
effect.
A new route will run
through the West Side, and
Newport Beacn-or Santa
Ana-bound riders will have to
transfer from that bus, which
will stop on Harbor Boulevard
much less often.
That change will make it
more difficult for many work-
ers to get to their jobs on time,
Ramirez said.
DaveSi.Jnpson, spokesxn.an
for the OCTA. said the new
system was designed to speed
up the bus seJVice. Even with
the increased transfers, the.
reduction in turns and devia-
tions from the routes will result
in quicker commutes, he said.
Cost.a Mesa bas the oounty's
second-highest bus riderShip.
·we need these routes,·
said Costa Mesa resident
Marla \ran Gent. •Leave the
buses alone.•
Mary Olson, of the Dayle
Mclntosh Center for the dis-
abled in Anaheim, said the
new system will be detrimen-
tal to physically and mentally
disabled bus riders.
·someone in a (wheel-
chair) taking two buses now
will have to take three once
this begins,• she said. •That is
just more difficult. And for ~
someone with a learning ·dis-
ability, changing the routes
makes it difficult for them to learn..
The Orange County Citi-
zens Bus Restructuring Task
Force, a 'citizens' group that
held the forum, suggested
several ways to improve the
new "straight-lined" system:
increase the length of time
buses run and the frequency
of the routes; improve bus stop
locations and handicapped
access; and involve more rid-
ers in designing the system.

WHAT IT MEANS:
Residents have until Oct. 2

tainers can't
exceed 35 gal-
lons in capaci-
ty and must be
made of plas-
tic or a similar,
nonmetal watertight materi-
al. Fixed handles must be
located below the top edge
of the container. It must also
have a watertight caver that
isn't permanentty attached.
Veterans Charities of
Orange County offers to
pick up the old cans and
deliver a new one for
S 12.50. The price includes
another year. Arryooe with a

•Hard Choices: Housing

These are the topics for the
2000 Coast Magazine Distih-
guished Panel Discussion
Series at the Newpc:irt Beach
Public Library this fall.
Meanwhile, a few miles east in
Newport Beach, best friends, school-
mates and neighbors Jessica Peschelt
and Michelle Cimini, both 10,
wrapped up another eventful day at
Newport Harbor High School's
Olympic-size pool.
The pools at Newport Harbor and
Corona del Mar high schools serve as
Newport Beach's public pools year-
round. Open swim hours for the sum-
mer will end next week, but adult lap
swimming will continue at Corona del
Mar from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. weekdays
on a year-round basis.
Open swim fees in Newport Beach
are $1 per person; lap swimmers pay
$2.
Peschelt and Cimini made it a ritu-
al over the sununer to visit the nearby
pool on a daily basis.
"We're really active when we
come here. We do Cront flips, back
flips, try to touch the bottom of the
pool, hand stands and races,# said
Michelle. "It's not about getting a tan.
It's about having fun.#
Jessica nodded in agreement.
"Yeah, I hate it because sometimes I
go to the beach with my 14-year-old
sister and her friends and she never
wants to go in the water,• Jessica
said. "She just wants to work on her
tan .•
But the roost enjoyable part for
both girls has been watching the high
school football players jump off the
diving board to cool off before sum-
mer practices. .
"It's funny to watch them,•
Michelle said, both girls giggling.
"They just think they are so cool.•
The first discussion will
take place Sept. 15. It will
focus on the impact of urban
development on local beach-
es and bays as well as mea-
sures being taken to balance
growth, urbanization, reae-
ation needs and the preserva-
tion of natural resources.

SKATE

The developers' estimate
to complete the skate park on
the dty-owned vacant lot on
Charle Street is $603,472.
Part of the cost would go
toward installing restrooms at
the Charle Street location, an
expense eslima!ed at
$75,000.
Several residents said the
plans, which include only
existing stref!t parls:ing for the
park, could cause congestion
in the area.
• Parlqng is. a real con-
cern,• said Ron Young. "The
Uons (Park) site is wonderful,
except this one has the
advantage that the city owns
it. Lions does have restrooms,
however.•

Parks commissioner Mike
Scheafer, wb~ frOril

the compost toilets and the
shllded rest area should be
cut so more parking areas CAP
be added.
"Whatever it costs, it's
worth it to buy another lot for
parking,· he said. •rm going

A parcel south of the dty-

commissioners encouraged

The Planning Commi5sion
