The couple had just moved to Newport Beach from Seattle and were still look- ing for ways to meet new people. Then Boulos came across a notice for a computer dub that met regularly at the center and decided to give it a try. Although she gained quite a bit of experienoe with computers while she worked for a broad· casting company, Bouloe wanted to brush up her re9eucb tkilll for a genealogy project she'd been working pn.

South Coast Repertory started as a touring company in 1964. David Emmes ls in the foreground. Mar- Un Benson ls on the ladder. Last week, the theater held a groundbreak- ing for a $40-million addi- tion, which includes a 336- seat theater, offices and classrooms. But ask David Emmes, co- founder and co-artistic direc- tor of SCR with Benson, about his greatest thrills and he'll talk about a different groundbreaking -from 1977. "lt was to build our first permanent home,· Emmes said. "Up until then, we rent- ed space. That was certainly a great thrill because it rep- resented a great milestone, though there's been so many great milestones.• Em.mes and Benson's his- tory started in the early '60s, when the two San Francisco State College graduates learned they both wanted to start a theater company. In the summer of 1963, they used the Off-Broadway Theater and produced plays including Arthur Schnitzler's •La Ronde• and Brendan Behan's "The Hostage" with six actors who continued sea- son after season with the company. As the county's population increased, Ben.son and Emmes took their talents on the road. They performed in locations including the Newport Beach Ebell Club. In 1965, the growing the- ater company rented a marine hardware store on Balboa Peninsula and trans- formed it into a stage for a 75-seat audience. lWo years later, after increased funds and talents, the company also operated out of what was once the Sprouse-Reitz Variety Store on Newport Boulevard in Costa Mesa. nus location dosed after 23 productions because run- ning two theaters became too much. But with an operating budget of $250,000, a grow- ing staff, awards from the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle and access to mem- bers of Actors Equity, SCR began raising $3.5 million to build its first permanent facility in Costa Mesa. Etrunes and Benson had debated where to roost - whether it would be Los Angeles or Orange County. "I advocated Orange County, heving grown up m Orange County,· Emrnes said. "I had an idea of the potential Orange County rrughthavetosupportthe arts. So we ultimately deo d - ed to come here so we could get a little more attention being the big fish in a little pond." By September of 1978, the building we know of as SCR today opened with a produc- bon of William Saroyan's "The Time of Your Life.· And by October of 2002, offmals say SCR's new faoll- ties will open.

The 30-year-old Bac kus emerged from his amnesia haze, three days after wan- dering into Hoag Memorial Hospital in a jogging suit and saying he didn't }cnow who he was or what city he was in. Th e answers came after days of psychiatric testing and coaxing by hospital doctors that finally snapped Backus out of his foggy mind frame. Backus, a native of Orlando, Fla., was released from care Saturday and was beaded to see relatives. He recently had dnven from his home to the San Diego neighbor- hood where he bad grown up. From there he had wandered up to Brett Backus Newport Beach. In their work, doctors dis- covered a history of mental problems in the man's past, police said. •He had prior psychiatric problems,• said Lt. Mike Jackson of the Newport Beach Police Department. •He was in a deep depression.• Amnesia is a rare condition that can be tnggered by psy- chiatric illness, a head injury or drug use, officials said. Severe amnesia can be brought on by severe emotional trauma. A person's memory may be slow to return. Police still don't know why Backus was wearing the jog- ging clothes when he entered the hospital at about 6:30 a.m. Wednesday morrung. He was weanng llght-gray pants, an off-white T-sturt and runrung shoes. He was not sweating and dld not show any signs he was tnjured or had been using drugs.

SEAN~/ OMYl'l.OT • Beth I. Slatvin, Dir. of Marketing, Scheduled for completion at the end of 2001, will bring a four-year dream to reaJicy for the 700 plus member congregation. The innovative architectural design of a eampus symbolizes the strength and commitment of the congregation creating a center for Torah and a place for children and pdchildren to learn the traditions of the Jewish people. The new Torah Center is expected to attract many new members as the Orange County communicy continues to grow and prosper. The vision for the expansion of a religious campus at Temple Bat Yahm was developed from a much-anticipated need for more .space for the growing congreg;1.tion. fo 1998, a new concept named TBY 2000 was established. A committee was appointed under the leadership of Rabbi Mark S. Miller and · former congregational President, Dr. Lee Berman. TBY 2000 would takC the congregation into the next century, enabling them to meet the growing spiritual, educational arid -social needs of the Temple membership. The goal was to raise $3.5 mHlion to recreate a campus for Bat Yahm that would be a preeminent center for Jewish learning and spirituality in Orange County. In July of 1998, the TBY 2000 Campaign was launched under the leadership of legendary congregate and 2001 Spirit of Life Award honoree, YgaJ Soneshine. Wiili the fabulous commitment and drive of campaign Vice-chair Bernie Spiro, the campaign forged ahead to bring over $5 million dollars in pledges. Existing areas of the Temple include the Soncshine Family Sanctuary, which has 400 permanent scats, a full-capacity banquet h,J.l with stage and dance floor seating 300 guests will be expanded to scat 360 guests. The Sherman Education Center, now accommodating over 350 religious school students and growing, will obtain a new school wing. The Early Childhood Education Program, which accommodates over 120 enrolled students and 40 parent/toddler participants, will expand their program into the existing wing. A newly enhanced play yard with state-of-th e-arc playground equipment. including s un . , protccuon screens, was recently dedicated by the parents of this years graduating class. The fo~mer librjU}' will ma.kc way for the renovation of a new administrative wing consisting of a new reception area, a new Rabbinical suite, Director of Operations and Marketing offlccs, clerical and support staff space and a volunteer room.

Americans are panic-stricken at the idea of driving in Italy, which is probably a good thing. Per- sonally, given a lot of prac- tice on Southern California freeways and Manhattan · streets, I've seen a lot worse. No question, driving in big cities over here definitely focuses the senses. But the real problem is not the dri- ving. It's that old nemesis of Americans driving abroad - the traffic circle. It's easier for the average American driver to maneuver a 40-mule team through the Balboa Fun Zone than to deal with the basic European traffic circle.

I was stuck in a traffic circle in Picadilly Circus one time for about six hours. The only way I escaped was to slow the car down to a aawl, top- ple out the door and walk back to my hotel. I assume the car just kept circling until it ran out of gas and I doubt the other drivers even noticed. Anyway (allora,) the image of Italian drivers' ges- turing wildly and screaming unspeakable things at any- one who gets in their way is fading. Drivers are civil, more or less, and they give foreigp drivers (whom they can recognize immediately) a wide berth. 1\vo things that will definitely stop an Ameri- can's h~, though. are the narrow streets and the tight squeezes. Italians have an uncanny sense of exactly how wide a space is needed to accommodate their car or truck or (my personal favorite) tour bus. And we're talking about clearances of two or three centimeters here. The sure signal that it's time to tighten your seat belt is when an Italian driver looks you in the eye then reaches out his window and pulls bis slde-vtew mirror tight against the door. I just close my eyes, lean back and watt for the impact. Inaedi- bly, lt never comes. By the time I force myself to look, the only trace of the near- death. experience is a fieet· ing image in my rearvi.ew mirror.

SOME PIEFER GOLFING While he enjoys working with computers and sees them as a hobby, Love does- n't think everyone needs to join the digital age. His wife, Shirley, for one won't touch the thing. "She has her own hob- bies," he said, adding that she appreciates the opportu- nity to e-mail with family members. But "I do it for her,• he said. •she tells me what she likes to say and I [write) it.· That's not unlike what's going on in the Boulos home.

Even with all my prejudices, I must say, the most incredi- ble meals I've ever ea.ten - anywhere, any time -have been right here in the Big Boot and the island just off its toe (Sicily, for the geo- graphically challenged.)

Now, 10 months after the measure passed, their tune has changed drastically. When officials from Koll Cen- ter announced they would be the first to try a vote under the Greenllght law -which requires a public vote of approval for any projects that add more than 40,000 square feet, 100 peak-hour car trips or 100 dwelling units above what's allowed in the general plan - the opposition was fast and fierce. •Why do it? It doesn't do us any good,• said Allan Beek, one of the authors of the initia- tive. ·we made a plan for that area. We built it. Why not stick to it?• And when, just a week ago, the owners of the Newport Dunes Waterfront Resort announced they had put the tourism institution up for sale, there were no tears shed by the Greenlight camp. Instead, there were words of warning for any potential buyer who might con- sider going ahead with a planned expansion at the Dunes. Certainly, since that planned expansion was unveiled nearly two years ago, the opposition has been clear and consistent. But now it has gone beyond arguing for the •managed growth" restrictions set up by Greenlight, which apparently are not enough for development opponents. Instead, they seem bent on fighting any Dunes expansion, any Koll development and any growth within the city. We agree that development, given Newport Beach's little open space and tight traffic, should not continue unre- strained. Still, the city cannot stay as is. Development has to happen. And all development is not bad development. If it were, then every home in the city ought to be tom down. TI1i.s no-growth climate is exactly what Greenlight oppo- nents, including the Daily Pilot, feared when the initiative was unveiled. But its backers - Beek, Arst and others - assured that was not their intent Now, those words sure seem hollow to us. We urge them to back away from this intractable attitude and use the new Greenligbt law as they said it would be intend- ed, to control growth and traffic and maintain the quality of We in one of California's greatest coastal towns, not to kill it. Museum move would solve a nuniber of artistic pr6blems I t could be the icing on the cake. The final piece to the puzzle to the grand vision that Henry Segemrom and others have had for South Coast Metro and Costa Mesa -to turn it into into the central hub for arts 1n Orange County. We're talking about the latest rumor. That rumor, whlch lwirled aboUt last week, concerns the Idea of moving the Orange Counfy MU18U.111 of Arts from Newport Beach fo land near Soulb Cout Plaza. lllourmw.tbe~dtbl ..,. ..em to far outWwlgb the ...., And we think it'a ,POllllble .,..M14 ...... _., ... °'*'ll'dn9 .... bi ·:•IWlm 1111~. but._ an best shopping 1n probably all of California.

CoMMuNnY fORuM Sunday, August 5, 2001 11 Keening activist roots alive Susan Skinner Caustin carries on a family tradition of fighting for environmental issues W hen owners of the Newport Dunes Water- front Resort announced they were putttng it up for sale, activist Susan Skinner Caustin, who was opposed to a l~ger hotel at the resort, said she thought the site would make a great city park. Newport Beach City Council members have broached the subject, and it may may be dis- cussed at a future meeting. On Thursday, Caustin, who's married to environ- mental activist Bob Caustin, sat down with Pilot Assistant City Editor James Meier to discuss . Greenlight, grease traps and those who inspired her to become active in her community. You obviously have been a blg supporter of the GreenllghtlnlUattve.Do you approve of any of the recenUy proposed projects that Greenllght would affect {Le. Martnapark. Koll Cen- ter's expamlon)l In a perfect world, I would like to see Newport Beach maintain the charm that it has right now. And that means you have to put a stop to development at some point Because of that, I'm not crazy about either of those developments. Now, if you have to have development in the city of Newport Beach, having it by the airport is the best place to have it. And I do not approve of the Marinapark hotel. What do you think about that project spedflcallyt I think it's a lovely hotel for someplace else. But it doesn't belong in a crowded peninsula that bas no park- ing. And besides, city-owned property that is currently parkland, I don't think should be converted into any type of a structure that's not there to serve the public. In that same vein, you have been quite the vocal opponent to a larger Dunes resort. most recenUy saying that thote Interested in buy- ing the resort would be wbe not to propose a large hotel at the site. Is there any size of a hotel that would suftlce at that sltel · I would oppose any hotel that ls substantially larger than the current hotel. In fact, if I could oppose the current hotel, I would do that But that is something where they've received prior permission and I have to respect that. A hotel that's any Jarver than that is gc:iDg to have tnaementally larger impects, and I don't think the city needs or deMrvel any more prob- lelns with traffic Of denslty. And I might add that I'm absolutely delighted that the City Council is open to the idea of taking over that property and creating a park for the city. Now, were the Dunes site to become some sort of park, should the bay there be deaned upt Ob, yes. The bay deserves to be cleaned from the top of the upper bay to the jetty. There was a time in my par- ents' youth when the bottom of the bay was sandy and there were no water-quality problems, and you could go shell fishing in the bay. And why we accept a bay where we have muck on the bottom and restrictions on fish and shellfish taken from the upper bay and restrictions of human contact of water in San Diego Creek -why we should accept that is beyond me. Actually, it's not beyond me. We shouldn't accept that. Was It your mother, Nancy Skinner, who lnllu- enced you. to become a com- munity acttvt.stt I would have to say it was my mother and father, both. But it was my mother who dragged me out in my earli- est years to walk precincts for candidates that she sup- ported. I guess that got implanted -I don't know what the best word is. The fever caught or the book got set The types of things she's been involved in are water quality, density and with Planned Parenthood. She actually has her fingers in a lot of pies. And all of them are working toward ma.king this world a better place. That's quite a role model. And of course my hus- band is quite the activist and role model. He was not as much of an activist until he became a part of our family. And what I've learned from him is just the-amazing cre- ativity for how you can get stuff done.

He's done it for about seven years, when we met. Whal enraged him was when we were having dinner with him one night with my father. The Irvine Ranch Water District was going to get permission to dump treat- ed sewage into Upper (Back) Bay. It's highly treated stuff, but it's essentially fertilizer because it has high rates of nitrogen and phosphorous in there. The bay was just green with mats of algae. Fish were dying because the algae took away their ozygeo. A lot of that was happen- ing because the district was improperty dumping their treated sewage into the bay and that acts as fertilizer and the algae grows. We all knew that, but the district was trying to get permission to do it legally. :Ibey were on the verge of getting that when Bob got involved. Basically this was like stand- ing in front of a speeding locomotive. The district had $800 million in the bankrupt- cy. And Bob stood in lront, saying "Stopt• Bob filed a lawsuit, and he won. He stopped them. 1 was really impressed by that. How much of an impact did the late Fran Robinson, known for ber eHorts in delendlng the Back Bay, have on your Wef Also, both Frank and Fran had quite the impact. I ad.mire them so much for their dogged persistence and, again, the knowledge that with enough time and effort and pushing that they could accomplish something amazing for this city. Again, they were fighting a juggernaut, wh.ich was the Irvine Co., and they stood there saying "Stop!" dnd they turned everything around. And, as a result, we have the upper bay. And we wouldn't otherwise. We would have condominiums and dock pilings. You've been an advocate for requiring restaurants to have grease traps. How much wlll you work on that issue locallyf Well. I think that's some- thing I'll be more supportive of. I thmk my energies nght now will be to encourage the city to convert the Dunes mto a oty park. You only have so much time and ener- gy. Amazingly enough, with a small baby, much of your free time disappeai:s. We laugh and say with the con- trariness of duldren, he'll probably end up bemg a developer. Are there any other issues that you want to take on any time soonf Actually, I'm researdung something called endocrine disrupters, which are pollu- tants and contaminants that get into human bodies and mimic the actions of hor- mones. For example, DDT is one of them. The concern is that when humans accumu- late these into their bodies, they may actually have an impact on how a fetus devel- ops. And that's not something that's very well-known. I'm doing some research on methyl mercury in fish in recogrution that the levels of methyl mercury in fish that are commonly consumed have a real potenb.al impact on a developing fetus. That's known in the scien- tific community, but not m public. So that's one or the things I'm looking at ls increasing public awareness Eating tuna fish at a rate of one can a week may have a significant on developing fetus and could cause mental retardation. It needs to be well-known so pregnant women can make an informed decision for their baby. ' QU01I Of 111 DAY "Jlin (Petterfy) JI the best there ls. The players are raving about the greena ... ,,.

PARADISE Three tied for lead at 66, three others at 68 and eight more at 69 on first day of Costa Mesa City Championships. Richard Dunn 0AllV PILOT COSTA MESA - With the leaderboard stacked in the 29th annual Costa Mesa City Championships with low-scoring amateurs. the conditions at Costa Mesa Golf & Country Club were nothing less than professional Saturday. One of the reasons for the record number of players in the field -320 registered -is because of the reputation of Costa Mesa superintendent Jim Fetterly, who bas reached a pinnacle this weekend in the two-day ch ampi- onship with players in near disbelief about the Los Lagos and Mesa Linda goU courses, owned by the city and operated by Mesa Verde Partners. Joe Foley putts on No. 4 In Saturday's flnt Since Mesa.~ l'OlalJd OI pla,t.on the Mela Unda Coarse.

Not just the greens, but the whole golf course. The greens are (Fetterly's) signature.

CATCHING UP .WITH Shontel Sherwood Newport Beach Police detective still references girls basketball coaching experiences at Estancia, Costa ~esa high schools. a.ny Faulkner DAILY Pit.or TI eight years Shontel Sherwood spent coaching girls basketball at Estancia and Costa Mesa high schools, including two.plus seasons as the Mustangs' vaJSity head coach, serve as more than fond memories. As a detective with the Newport Beach Police Department's juvenile and sex aimes division, Sherwood, who wW soon celebrate her 13-year annivena.ry on the force, uses her coaching experience as a vital reference library. "I use examples from coaching all the time,• said Sherwood, who in addition to her investigative work, teaches classes for parents in the department's substance awareness program. "I'm not a parent, so it might be easy for people in my classes to question my credentials,• Sherwood said. "But I tell them I've dealt with kids as a coach and I use examples from coaching that apply. I think that makes my credibility a little better with these parents.• Sherwood sciid the public-speaking ~pects of teaching, and the immediate feedback she receives from those she speaks to, are fun and rewarding aspects of her job. She also enjoys the investigative work that often leads to convictions. But. eventually, she would like to move up the ranks to earn a supervisory position, first as a sergeant, then a lieutenant. She said close to five years working juvenile and sex aimes has made her appreciate her former athletes even more. "Most of the kids I deal with now, are the ones that are continually in tJ:ouble, • she said. •When I was coaching, I bad a balance of dealing • with kids who were, for the most part, on the right track. They were kids with a strong parental structure, which is something kids I deal with now don't have. 1 don't have as much of an influence on the kids I work with now as the ones I was involved with in athletics. It ~ of makes you cynical · about kids." Sherwood said she will pursue a new assignment, but pJans to adopt a child have put that decision on hold for the time being. •One of the reasons I left coaching (after the 1997-98 season) was that I wanted to have a baby,· she said. "I tried for a little over a year to get pregnant, but I was not successful. I'm in the process of adopting a baby and being a mother is something I'm really looking forward to.• Sherwood, 38 and a Mission Viejo resident, said she foresees a retunl to coadling if her child ever wishes to compete in sports. "If it came down to coachlng my child and _sacrificing something for my career, I see myself moving in the direction of coaching,• she said. Sherwood, a former Division Ill All-American in basketball at Pomona College, satisfies her competitive urges now on the softball diamond. She is the catcher for a coed tournament team that has won four straight Police Games tournaments and is currently on a 33-game winning streak. "We play in three tournaments a year, in Arizona, California and Las Vegas,• she said. "We won all three last year and have already repealed in Arizona. We'll try to repeat in Las Vegas in August." Sherwood's coaching career began , as junior varsity coach and varsity assistant to Llsa McNamee at Estancia. D°c:: r~ IDghglrls basketball coach Shonlel Sherwood .ls blowing a different whistle these days, she's a detective with the Newport Beach Police Department SEAN HU.ER I DAILY Pit.OT After two seasons with the Eagles, she rejoined McNamee in the same role at Costa Mesa for the 1992-93 campaign in which the Mustangs' varsity won a CIF Southern Section title and advanced to the Division m state final in Oakland.

"That team was not only talented, but a lot of fun.• Sherwood stayed at Mesa after McNamee resigned following the 1993-94 season and became interim varsity coach, replacing Len Whitacre. for the final eight games of the 1995-96 season. She guided the Mustangs to the CrF playoffs each of her two full years as coach.
