Rodman had rejected a court-appointed arbitrator's decision to award New $225,000 bdsed on her accusa- tion that she was drugged and raped by the fonner NBA star at his Newport Beach home. New, a star witness in the high-profile trial of Eric Bech- ler, filed a $10-million civil lawsuit in August 2000, stating that, on Aug. 20, 1999, Rod- man took her against her will to his West Newport home and sexually assaulted her. A county judge had appointed Irvine lawyer Rivers J. Morrell ID as the arbitrator in the lawsuit. Morrell's ruling was received by the court July 19. The decision was, however oonbinding and either party could reject it within 10 days. New's attorney, Stephen Tomay, said Monday that talks are on between him and Rod- man's attorney to settle the matter out of court uBut we don't have any- thing concrete as of yet,· he said U the mandatory settlement conference proves unsuccess- ful. the case will go to bial probably in April Tornay said.

Co MM I Standa,rd tests difficUlt to develop T he federal lawmakers are busy putting their fingers in the e duca- tional pie. They want a standard- ized test whereby the public can be assured that kids are learning certain things. It sounds like such a good idea. Why shouldn't we expect kids to have the same high level of learning, · whether their school is in the ghetto or the gated community? In fact, why don't we have the same final exam for all kids taking Algebra I through- out the ctislrict? Most schools don't even give the same exam for the same Gay Geiser- Sondoval EDUCATIONALLY SPEAKING subject taught in •, secondary schools by multiple teache rs. Standardized curriculum tests are not used on a district, state or national level. There is one exception to this prac- tice. The Advanced Placement class allows high school students to take col- lege-level courses. At the end of the course, there is a national standardized test given. It allows colleges to have some assurance that the student has mastered the material and is ready to move ahead to the next class. Advanced Placement students all over the country use the same book and study guides, and all of them take the exact same test on the exact same date. ~ch test receives a score between 0 and 5. A score of 3 or above is consid- ered mastery of the subject, and many colleges give credit for that amount of units or for taking that course require- ment. Each college can set its own crite- ria, and some require a sco(e of 4 or 5 to receive credit. Currently, the governor is giving a $3,000 scholarship, which can ~used at any college, to students who sc.yre a 5 in both AP calculus and 'AP saence. Considering all of these benefits, why don't our local high schools offer the 30 possible AP courses available? For one thing, our schools start a month later than many schools in the East and Mid- west. Because those schools get out earlier, AP testing takes place in the first part of May. So, our students get eight months lo.stead of nine to learn the material. 'There is tea~er training for AP coWMS that ls one week long in the summer. But not all teachers receive that training. Not all teachers want to te4cb a college-level course in which their results are so easily tracked. The teachers whose students get the best results on AP tests tend to put in a lot of extra time with mock tests and endless stUdy sessions. They don't get paid extra like they would for coaching a 1~rts team . Who should be able to take AP classesf Most schools acreen those stu- dents who want to take the class and 'only allow certain kids to give it a try. Some schools further screen those who will be allowed to take the test, so that tbe school's AP scores d on 't look low.

The bulls and horses ridden at rodeos have done no harm to anyone and are in no danger or doing so. They must be torment- ed so they appear aggressive. Naturally, they want to eliminate their pain by throwing nders off. What must they be thinking, being harmed needlessly and regularly? Surely, humans should have the mental capaoty and moral obligation to abhor, punish and eliminate cruelty. Calling such behavior sport and ignoring its reality is a disgrace.

GAKV DtaES Costa Mesa Why is support growing for an El Toro airport? • AT ISSUE: Recent poll suggests that heightened public awareness is behind the increase. A.. the economy slows, taxpay- ers of Orange READERS County are RESPOND ~t~ con~lof "The Great Central Park carries with ll an overwhelming tax implication. Just the nonrecurring cost of the environmental effect of deaning up a military base that bas been in continuous use for more than 50 years is mlnd-bog- gting. This does not even address tbe recurring tax burden of main- taining such a mass!ve park. An additional realization may be the detrimental effect on major commercial and industrial enterprises locating in a county overburdened with taxes and high Cost of living, with no com- pensating improvement in lines of communication The question does net even address the huge cost of trying to make John Wayne Airport into a major oommen:ial ab'port.

AD tncrease in support for an airport at El Toro can be directly related to our dtlzem' solution- oriented spirit that bas gained power recently from the presence of other immediate crises. Since last March, electndty for our homes has become a val- ued commodity. 1be general voice oies out. •Why don't we have more pl.ants? Or better plants? Or more efficient pta.nfs?• Moreover, some d our local beechel have had to close becaUle Of the operating proper· ties of a sewage plant One recent voice even comically suggested that residents of Riverside County who work in Orange c.ounty kindly make their "biological waste• part of their a:mmute. In other words, don't oYedoad Orange County toilets. In face of these issues. a zeit- geist has emerged that is cen· tered on the correct develop- ment of our civic infrastructure. We are Orange Countians. We are pragmatic. We see the other crises and their hnk to the limi· tations of existing property end plants. We will not sell our-• selves short now in other areas where we can foresee oises: where we can foresee l.Dfra- structure limitatioJ\I on the hori- zon such as with airport travel.

Por dec:8dtw. private groups have been able to re1e1W dty parb for parties, picn1cs, family reunions and weddings, omong otben. 'A 1975 Oty Council policy states that "commerci81 uses of public park lands may be desirable in certain drcumstances to pro• vide revehues to olf9et maintenance costs• forwo. · But LaDoo.na Xienitz, the city's COJDl'Jluni- ty services director. said fees to reserve parks are minimal and don't contribute a fot of money to maintenance. And people who bother to get the dtYs permission to use parks don't seem to cause any problems. "The things that we're getting complaints about aren't necessarily things that are per- mitted," said Andrea McGuire, the city's senior recreation manager, adding ~t the city doesn't issue an "outlandish• DJllQber Qf permits. The question then becomes bow to regu-. late the use of a public park by large groups, she said. "It is a public park,• McGuire said "So bow can you -based on policies, proce-· dw-es and codes -prevent people from tak- ing over a park?" that's an issue McGuire and a subcom- mittee of thedty's Parks, Beaches and Recre- ation Commission talked about during a meeting Monday afternoon. McGuire said the group would probably schedule anotbs session before taking its recommendations to the full commission by September. After that, council members will likely dis- cuss the matter again and this could result in new regulations for the use of public parks. City Atty. Bob Burnham said he didn't think doing so would be a problem. "Since parks are for everybody, we cer- tainly can adopt regulations to ensure equal access to the parks," he said. O'Neil said he'd "abide by whatever rul- ing that comes back" from the commission, but added that he expected them to consider raising park rental fees and employing park rangers to patrol areas on weekends. • MAntlS WIMQ.Sl COYerS Newport Beach.

"No one was injured," Rocke said. "And that's a very good thing."
