Russet, gold, wine, red and bronze are the spectacular colors of the season and with some planning this month your garden can be ready to greet October and November's crisp, cool days with a blaze of warm tones. The first order of busi- ness is to deadhead -remove old flow- ers - Adding plants with a specific color scheme can have a dramatic from your "wow" perenni-factor in als. Cut the faded your garden. flowers and stems down to the first leaf. If the plant looks leggy, cut the stem back to the side branch. Eliminating old growth from your spent plants will encourage a new bloom cycle and help your plants to store energy for the dormant months. Old annuals that have performed their duties for the summer should be removed, and new soil added in their absence to prepare for new plants. U you're a garden novice, bere's a short list of plants that thrive during the ran season: chrysanthemums, black-eyed Susans, tuberous begonias, dahlias, zinnias and cannas. For beautiful fall foliage, add ginkos, Boston ivy, heav- enly bamboo and pyracant.ba. to your garden staples. These plants provide a blaze of red and gold in your garden.

A professional Newport Beach pho- tographer whose clients have included presidents, actors, princes, governors, senators, prime minister5 and Nobel Prize winners, Bri- dle threw off her heels, biked up her slacks and ran through a meadow of wet grass to freeze forever the image of a calf being born.

The birth of a cow in the groom's Newport Beach's Yana Bridle won honorable mention in Nikon's prestigious Photo Contest International with a photo of a cow giving birth. barn nearby offered the heartbeat. Nllcon's Photo Contest International awarded Bridle with an honorable mention for that photo TRAVEL TALES last month. Her work stood out among 34, 187 entries from 73 different countries. The mention is rewarding, she says, and the contest is one of the largest photographic contests in the world, but the story of the newlyweds and the coun- tryside and the just Mdropped* cow ,is what she wants to talk about. But before she does, let it first be said, Bridle · throws off her shoes and runs. She runs from her dining ~oom to the bedroom to grab some-. thing she needs to show. She rushes from her seat to the stove to refill her llask-style cup of tea. She flips rapidly through binders bursting with negatives and photos documenting her liletime of 58 yea.rs.

Any plants that are showing signs of mildew should be treated or removed to discourage the spread of disease. As the days grow short- er and the weather cools, adjust your irrigation. Plants need less water as the weather cools. Color combinations that provide maximum impact include yellow, orange and purple. Adding plants with a specific color scheme can have a dramatic "wow· factor in your garden. The cool purples and the bright yellows are great opposites that add visual appeal in your flower beds.

Newport-Mesans expre~s sadriess, anger and grief· AT ISSUE: Tuesday's attacks draw speculation, reason and endls opinions. Laying blame on all fyfuslims because of the heinous acts by a few is like indicting all Americans because a few happen to be mass murderers. It is at times like this that we need even more input from the civilized Mus- lim community so that we may learn enough about their religion and cul- ture to hopefully prevent similar ter- rorist acts in the future. It is time also that we reexamine our international stance to ensure that our foreign policy is not unrea- sonably biased. There is certainly no logical explanation aside from fanaticism to account for these ter- rorists' total disregard of human lives, but even if we ara able to cap- ture or eHmtMte the masterminds such as Osama bin Laden. the threat of terrorism will not likely recede. It ts to our best interest' as a nation to try to find out why these people cpuld hate us so much ~t they would even consider blowing themselves up just to hurt us. Per- haps there is never going to be a solution to this problem, but not another American should die due to lack of trying. JOHN T.OilU Newport Beach Tuesday, Sept. 11, will be etched in history as the day the world changed. This will be known as the day ot a new reality, the day that we have to reckon with the internation- al terrorism directed at the arro- gance of the new administration's policies that not only anger our foes, but alienate our allies as well However, this reality is not new, but started with the initial bombing of the Wodd 'Il'ade Center years ago. New York City got off relative- ly easy, as the U.S. government bas anticipated an attack with biological weapons of mass destruction that would., and could, kill millions in New York. lb.en there is that question of the nuclear weapons that were lost (sold to shadowy groups?) during the break up of the Soviet Union. Of course, as the United Stat.es is the only superpower on this planet, we wiif be a target. But the solution to these new challenges we face is not more .tanks, killer satellites, or Star War systems, but a reamation that the challenges we face are not in the tnu:HtiQnal sense, but what bas been d8velopiDg for years: religious suici- dal fanaticism. What has happened regionally in Ireland, the Balkans. Central Atrica and the Middle East Js now happening globelly. This is the new reality. ~UL JAMES IALDWIN NewJ)ort Beach 'lbe other day, as I drove through the area on emu:1ds. I looked tor the Amerlcen flag in front of local businesses.

I found it a sad statement of society that these displays seem to have gone by the wayside and was sadder still that I never noticed that before. Our society once assumed every American followed a spiritual path so strong that stores were not opened on Sunday. Now, the desire to be politically COll'eCt and separa- tion of church and state has put faith in the closet ... something to be held privately for fear of offending. Well, out of sight. out otmind. Chil- dren's sports, for example, now schedu1e events on weekends, leav- ing those who practice rellgkJD to be in the uncomfortable position ot tak- ing a stand against those scheduling the events. The terrorists, as misguided as they may be1 live their religion every walclng moment. Their actions are focused on what they believe to be the ultimate reward of their beliefs. It is this passion that allowed them to complete their heinous acts against humanity. The coming war will be one not :1J of our nations' military strength resolve, but one of humanity and the reign of good over evil If we are to S\JIVTI(e this war on an emotional level, we· need not just weapons ot destruction but of faith as well.

My feelings cannot be desaibed in words, our country was attacked, thousands ot people were killed, 1 have repeatedly heard this called the second Pearl Harbor. My pain is not so much for the people that died. although it is very tragic to say the least. their suffering is over. My pa.in is for the hiends and family of those people, for our coun- try as a whole. 1 have asked myself a thousand times "What I can do to help, and there's not much, being one small voice in a nation where everyone is shouting. I am devastat- ed because of what bas happened here, because millions of people are in mourning for their family and friends that died. I am wrtting to ask for your help. On the night of Tuesday, Sept 11, I spent a few hours cutting up navy blue ribbon and putting them on safety pins, I spent a few more hours handing them out at my <X>l- lege and other places the next day, and I am continuing to do this for es long I need to. I am asking t:>eoPle to pin these blue ribbonl to-their shirt, bag, pW'Se, jacket, wherever, to show our sadness for tbe people who died and to show our support for the peo~sti.11 llving. ~ would · to ask people if they can spare a few bucks and 80IDl8 time to s1t down and make some ' ribbons. To wear one Oil their lbb1I for the next few days or weeks, to show that we are united in this tragedy, to show our compassion for America. I chose navy blue for a few reasons, it is the darkest blue, a feel- ing many of us are struck with after the deaths of so many Americans, but also because it is the color on the flag that supports the 50 stars. As President Bush said, freedom was attacked, these blue ribbons also support our freedom. We can all unite by wearing a blue rlbbon. so many people have been affected by this. What a good feeling it may be for someone whose son or daughter, mother or father was in those buildings to see so many people support them. Like I said before, I am only a small voice in a nation where mil- lions are shouting about this. I am asking to use your voice, to ask peo- ple to do this, to tell them this is happening in Costa fviesa and New- port Beach. It could happen over the entire nation. Already from banding these ribbons out for two days, I have had ~ple volunteer to go out and them. and give them to their fl'tends, family, neigh- bors and co-workers. l am tom between emQtions over what happened in New York. all of thOle emotions are too strong to be dalatbad with woros, and I think that inilldna and wearing these rib- bam wOulcl help bring us together. ~kelp m strong and support 9'dl c:itblll'. nm ii a time when per· ..... *'-lbould be set aside. 1•, I Forget race, age, sex. religion l\nd unite as Am.erlcans.

Komen Breast Cancer Foundation office in Costa Mesa. On Thwsday, Assistant City Editor James Meler sat down with Aletha Anderson, now in her sec- ond year as Orange County's race chair, to dis- cuss her involvement and what it takes to prepare an event that will bruig togeth- er more than 25,000 racers. 1bis Is your second year as cha1r of the race ln Orange County. Where did you do It beforel In 1992, which was the first race in Orange County, I had a small part on the com- mittee and then we moved away and lived in Colorado for five years. And I became very involved with the race committee in Colorado Springs. And I chaired it there and co-chaired it there. So when I moved back here, I called them up and told them "I know a lot about the Komen Foundation and this event, what can I do?" So I ended up chairing it as soon as I moved back. How did you get lnvotved ln the event lnlUallyf I knew someone ... who was one of th.e founding chairs who brought it here and she invited someone she knew to an organizing meet- ing. There was a woman there who had breast cancer who spoke about it and !i&d "OK, before everyone leaves, you're all going to sign up to be on a committee,• and we all did. Seeing the event, rs jWJt a positive, upbeat event tbt it's just great to be iDYolved with.

It's just over- whelming -the volunteers you meet and what they're willing to do for the cause. It's just so needed. 'The women you meet who are breast can- cer survivors and the stodes you bear really move you. As the race cba.lr, rm also on the board here, and you see the need in the grant requests and to know how much the~ is really needed and put to good use here keeps you going.

And it was just over- whebnlng to stand on the stage and to hear the music and to see so many women in pink. At first, I felt kind of sad and I almost started to ay, and then there was so much positive energy. Most of them were so jubilant and happy and positive that I didn't feel sad at all. Obviously, it is very emotional for the SUIVivors who are there. But to watch people who have gone through something life- threatenin~ (be) stronger and more positive really lifts everybody up. How do you tblnk thb yeu"I na will be any dlller-ent. lf at allt Well, it's our 10th year so the things we do well we are trying to repeat again and keep it as orgcmized as can be and with as little aowdiDg as can be with that many peo.. pie.

Lolita H•rper DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH They didn't know any of the victim$. They've never met the rescue workers. They only know that their country needs their help. Children in the Newport- Mesa area showed Saturday that despite their age, they will do what they can to help to help the country move for- ward after Tuesday's ghastly East Coast terrorist attack. lWo separate clans of dlil- dren -none older than 10 -took to the streets Saturday to raise money for strangers more than 3,000 miles away. A group of nine children in the Harbor View housing development raised nearly $600 in four hours selling small American flag decals. The children asked for e donation of at least a dollar bufreceived contributions of up to $60. Matt Will~erson and Connor Gaughan, both 9, rode over on their scooters to give $20 each to the cause. And a number of luxury sport utility vehicles and Mercedes stopped to chip in. All of the pToceeds will be -sent to the American Red Cross, said 8-year-old Ryan Grable. Megan Rucker, 9, was among the children selling flag decals on Port Renwick. "It's my birthday today but I wanted to sell these before my party,• Megan said. Neighbor Gary Fren.kiel, owner of Tee Color Craft Silk Screen Printers, donated about 500 decals to the chil- dren when he heard of their fund-raising plan. •1t•s so great to see them out here,• Frenkiel said. "I know this whole thing is hard for them to understand, but at least this makes them feel like they are helping." Peeling the same senti- ment of empowerment, a fil· . ferent group of children set up a lemonade stand in Newport Heights to raise money for rescue workers who are working to find sur- vivors -and victims -of the World Trade Center attack. Jeff Newman, son of Newport Beach Police Capt. Tim Newman, and about seven of his friends raised about $250 selling lemonade, cookies and chips. ·we've just been talking about it at school, and 1 just feel sad because of all the people who died in the build- ing,• the 10-year-old said. The Newport Heights group plans to sell more lemonade today on Clay Street, said 8-year-old Andy Baker. CONTINUED FROM 1 Pentagon and a fourth plane noee dived into a rural area of ~rlst attacks do not reflect a policy or intelligenoe failure, Seleseres said. Rather, it's the inevitable weakne&'SeS d an open society that make the country susceptible. •until we make it imposSihle to gain access or make a fool- proof system that doesn't allow the 'bad guys' in, then some- thing like this can always hap-pen,,, Sereseres said. Sereseres speculated on some of the reasons why the attacks might have been car- ried out, including vengeance against U.S. foreign policy o~ as a way to escalate the ongoing conflict In the Middle East. Una Kreidie, an authority on the West-Islam cultural and political divide, said frustration and rage are inflamed when the United States takes advantage of its position as a negotiator between Israel and the Palestinians and takes sides. •Tue United States says (itJ is a mediator and is trying to reach a peaceful resolution,• Kreidie said. •If this is the cast, you can- not just say, 'Israel is our strongest ally.' This would create anger." Authorities are saying much of the evidence thus far, as well as their investigation, is impli- cating suspects from the Midcf:Le East, including Osama bm Laden. The appropriate military response to the attacks ulti- mately depends on the cause and will be the first true test of President Bush's foreign policy, Sereseres added. ln terms of deterrence, Patrick Morgan, the former director of the Global Peace and Conflict Studies Center, sug- gested the United States exert more pressure on governments that harbor and assist terrorists and increase its capacity to arrest suspected terrorists before they strike. "The United States has more intelligence capabilities to try and ferret out terrorist groups and communications ... than any other government,• Morgan Doily Pilot said •1t baa more leverage on the wOdd'I oths governments tbananyatber~ The United Statea II a tremendous. 1y powaful adar in tbia retard..

Another domestic challjmge is how the country's leaders respond to the issue of national security, Sereseres said. He issued a caveat about quick fixes that would infringe on the nation's basic values. ·Although I'm a foreign pol· icy specialist and support mill· tary action, my immediate con- cern is we don't start tampering too much with our basic values and our basic access and free. dom to move without too much obstacles,• Sereseres said.

Playing without one returning starter from last season. the Tars allowed Marina's deepest penetration to the Harbor 25-yard line, late in the final period. Marina, which scored 40 points in a season-opening win over Paramount. ran 13 offensive plays in Sailor territory and never came close to scortng. ·we bad extra time to prepare, when the game was rescheduled (from Thursday to Saturday, due to the terrorist attacks on the East Coast Tuesday),• Newport outside linebacker 1\'ler Miller said •Marina put it to us early, but we earned (the shutout).• Marina, operating in the veer, man.aged just 49 yards on the ground, u the Sailors stuffed nine of their 2A rushing attempts for negative yards.

The Pirates, perbapl, bad the opportunity to symbolize America II , l On a day that went without Major LA....._ 15 League Baseball and NCAA DtvtDon I occ 2t football games, the Pirates and Seebawb . played some football. The NPL abo postponed its games this week in the aftermath of th~ terrorist attacks on America. With m seoonds rematntr19, fourth down from the 20-y~ , line going in, the Pirates' Nick Hlggl picked up a abo~ snap that dribbled across the football fteld. He was tackled, the final gun fired and the game ended with the Sea.bawkj ralsing their bands in celebration of a 35-29 victory. ~ This was just another juco football game. But for a littl over three hows on Saturday, here at LeBard Stadium OCC and L.A. Harbor offered entertainment. suspense an a bit of escape from the tragedy that spilled out onto this weekend.

Harbor. the Bucs cut down on their penalties from a week before, but it was turnovers that cost them the game. Also, the Seahawks' vaunted passing attack became OCC's demise. With simple-looking pa.Ues, LA. Harbor quarterback Melvin Yarbrough picked the Bua apart with 298 yank and three touchdowns on 23 of 49 passing. OCC bas now surrendered 690 passing yards and four touchdowns in its first two games. Higgs, however, oountered with S<lOl8 power of his own.

Recetvem Vince Strang (three catches for 128 yards end cne toubdown), Jonathan Ja.cboo (4..s&, 1 TD) and tight end Brandon Hall (6-58, 1 TD) were the beneficarles. But Higgs saw his tipped pass fall into the Seahawk.s' bands for an interception in the third quarter. The turnover lf'd to Yarbrougb's 12-yard touchdown pass to Chris Christopher as L.A. Harbor ate up some clock. They used nearly five minutes and went 58 yards on 12 plays to gain a 28-17 lead. The Buar'(1·1) quickly answered as Higgs led speedy wide receiver Vlooe Strang for a SS.yard toudldown just~ seconds after the Seahawks bad ICOled. But a SS.yard nm by Brandy Ruael1. who rushed for i4J yards and two touchdowns oo 23 carries, set up ~ Yarbrough TD pe11.

Not abort on cbaracter, the Bua later came back another acore as Higgs lofted a deep ball to Jackson f ' 46-yard touchdown.. With lea than five minutes rematnlng, the Bua bad another d:dve end when Anthony Campo fumbled Oil Ulla$- and·tndles from L.A. Harbor'l .W.yard line. But the Baes were able to win the ball back after the Seahawk.s turned the ball over on downs, giving Orange Coast its last cbance. •we came to play, but when the slluatioo called for tt. we didn't do what was needed,• Higgs sakl.
