COSTA MESA -Barely a day after a
jury determined that her daughter's
killer should be imprisoned for life,
Cindy Soto decided ~o lobby for a state
law that would allow mentally ill people
to receive treatment without checking
into a hospital. .
Soto said througho~t the three months
of the trial, she couldn't wait for a verdic;t
against. Steven Allen Abrams, who in
May 1999 plowed his car into a preschool,
killing her daughter Sierra Soto, 4, and
Brandon Wiener, 3.
At a board meeting of the Sierra's Light
Foundation, created in her daughter's and
Brandon's memory. Soto proposed Thurs-
day to seek support for California legisla-
tion based on New York's Kendra's Law,
named after a girl who was pushed to her
death on a subway train track by a psy-
chotic man.
·isn't this ironic,• Soto said, smiling as
she asked 'the rhetorical question , •that
we're having our meeting the day after?"
Pam Wiener, Brandon's mother and
also 11 board member, solemnly nodded in
response.
On Wednesday, jurors deliberated for
four hours and decided that Abrams
iibould be sentenced to life in prison. ln

Arthur TaU&sig has
more than 1,000 titles

range from "Peter Pan"

understandable, then, how
the moderator of a film noir
series at the Orange Coun-
ty Museum of Art is also
the author of a book and
the creator of a Web site
focusing on' films and fami-
ly values.
"There is no connec-

worked with Taussig on the

often started out as low-
budget B-movies, filmed at
night to lower costs. They
look at the dark side of peo-
ple and the social forces that
shape them.

now, like in •American

their roots in film noir, • ·
Gaiber said. •This helps us
understand film now."
Which may explain ·
how Taussig is bOth a film
noir expert and critic for
contemporary child-appro-
priate movies.
His tree Web site, called
W)VW.film Values.com,
offers about 1,000 reviews
on contemporary movies,
videos and cable showings.
Taussig comments on each
film's moral statement,
degree of violence, , ·
whether and how' it deals
with sexuality and gender
issues and other titles seen
as alternates. Each review
is about 500 words, which
is easy to read for busy
parents, 'Jaussig said.
The reviews point out
which characters perpetrate
violence, what forces moti-
vate the villain, whether the
crimina1s were punished
and who smoked or drank.
"If the villain smokes or
drinks, it's different from
whether the hero smokes
and drjnks," 'laussigsaid.
But he stresses his pur-
pose: to give Information to
parents who don't know
where to get it, rather than
opinions.
•The reviews are without
social, political or religious
agenda. It's up to the parents
to inject their own agendas
to their children," he said

' A little help on how to vote The final word
I t is that time again. A lew
of you have asked for it.
The rest of you may find
it useful, or may not.
v Be that as it may, it is
time, once again, for the
Official Peter Buffa Election
Handbook. Don't leave qome
without it. I know, I know. It's
so confusing. Candidates ..
you've never heard of,
propositions you can.barely
understand, claims, ch,.0rges
and countercharges. What to
do, what to do.
First of all, stop whining.
Second, don't stress. Carry
your election handbook at all
times and use it. Everything
you've ever wanted to know
about politics but were 'too
p.isgusted to ask is right
there at.your fingertips.
Ready? We begin.
I always advise people to
set aside a few quiet
moments before election day
. to look over the mounfain of
campaign mail we all love to
get. Campaign mail is very
important. It is a treasure
trove of information. It's all
true, every word. It has to be.
People can't just lie. The law
wouldn't allow it.
Party affiliation is critical.
If you're a Republican, only
vote for Republicans who are
"tax fighters" and "tough on
crime." And never, ever vote
for anyone who is not a
"Reagan Republican.• Any-
body can be a Republican.
Butonlyveryspedal,highly
qualified Republicans are
allowed to call themselves
"Reagan Republicans.·
If you're a E>emocrat,
only vote for Democrats
who will fight "for the peo-
ple" and stand up against
"big business," •HM Os•
and "the wealthy." aig
business is an especially
dangerous thing. Think how
much better off we'd be if
• there were no car compa-
nies or airlines or cornputer
Lmanufacturers or major
Jtatailers. We need someone
' who will put a stop to all of
that. Oli, and wealthy peo-
COMMENTS & CURlOSITIES
pie. They're bad too. Ctieck
your handbook.
Ballot initiatives used to
be confusing, but now
they're really simple. Vote
against anything that
"bureaucrats,". "politicians•
or ·,.special interests• want.
School issues, such as bonds
and vouchers? A no-brainer.
Just vote for the ones that
"help our kids" and against
the ones that "hurt our kids."
Growth and traffic are
bot issues this year, and
Newport Beach has two
hotly contested traffic and
land-use initiatives on Tues-
day's ballot. Personally, I
think the problem is that we
have way too many streets.
You build big streets like
Harbor Boulevard and
Coast Highway and pretty
soon you've g_ot cars. And
when you've got cars, .:
you've got traffic.
When we moved here in
the early '70s, big streets like
Harbor and Pacific Coast
Highway would get really
crowded at certain times of
the day. Now, almost 30
years later, big streets like
Harbor and Pacific Coast
Highway get really crowded
at certain ~ of the day.
It's got to stop, I tell you.
""' OK, let's get to the big one
-the one that comes with a
white house, an oval office
and a cool rug with an eagle
on it.
In some elections, picking
a president is a tough deci-
sion.' But this year, it's a piece
ofcake.Neverhas itbeen
easier to choose between
two people who want to
become the leader of the
most powerful nation on the
fa~ of the Earth. It's so obvi-
ous. Some of you have been
too focused on issues. You're
being silly.
As you've seen for the
pa.st year or so, presidential
campaigns are not about
details such as world peace
and the eco..nomy. The~ is
one issue and one issue only ,
that matters: prescription
drugs. Never mind that the
president has about as much
influence over the price of
presc:Iiption drugs as I do.
That's not the point. If you
study the career of any great
president -Jefferson, Lin-
coln, FDR, Reagan -the
one theme that comes up
again and again is prescrip-
tion drugs. I think it was FDR
who said: •we have nothing
to fear but the price of pre-
scription drugs."
Check your handbook. It's
all there.
Personally, there is one
thing that makes this presi-
dential race stand out from
any othe,. Jn my lifetime. For
language lovers, there has
never been anything like it. J..
Each candidate bas stead-
fastly tried to outdo the other
in mangling the English lan-
guage with malapropisms
and tortured sentence str\ic-
tures. If you're having trou-
ble making your choice, all
you have to do is study the
words of the candidates
themselves.

stand the importf:lece of ·

The "scare" is not true.
They know it's not true, but the ads keep coming.
Here· are the facts about Hoag Hospital and Measure S.
M easure T proponents have
chosen to uae Hoag as one
of their pawns in their effort to negate
the popular vote for Greenlight Measure S.
They have, characteristically, challenged
the intelligence of the citizens of Newport
Beach by taking words out of context from
10-ycar-old teners.
Measure S does not Jeoperdlze
Hoag's expansion plane over the
next 12 years.
I was on the City CowM:ll In 1992
when the Development Agreement was
signed for Hoag Hospital's 20 year Master
Plan. It allowed a t<>Ull of 1,343,238
square feet for the Upper and Lower Cam-
pus combined.
As with.any project of this size, there
~ere legitimate concerus by near-by residenlS about views. noiae. lights and
traff"ic. and theae were liddresled. No one
objected to the Hoag expansion but alter-
native placements of the buildings were
suggested by residents.
The Irvine Company and other
Measure T proponents aren't aa
Interested In Hoag Hospital a•
U..y are in lncNaelng density.
Out-of-town development interests
and The Irvine Company want de-
velopment for their own sake. Their ads
shamelessly tell untruths about Measure S
and Hoag Hospital expansion to dist:rlCt us
from their goal bf building more office
towers and convention hotels right here in
Newport Beach. They don't care about in-
creased traffic congestion on PICific Coast
Highway or increased demand for John

Nearly a month after the
Target store opened, a Santa
Ana Superior Court judge
ruled Thursday against a
Costa Mesa resident who
sued the city to stop the shop-
ping center near his home.
Al Morelli had accused the
city of spe°eding through
approvals for the center. He
was suing for $1.4 million in
punitive daniages and
$350,000 for violation of his
rights to due · pr0cess and
depreciation of his property
value.
In April, the City Council
unanimously approved plans
for Target's· 11-acre site at
3030 Harbor Blvd., which
includes a restaurant, retail
store and an outdoor garden
center.
The city is pleased with the
judgment, said Thomas
Nixon, the dty's-attorney on
the case.
Nixon said Morelli bad a
fair chance for a hearing on
April 17, when he was given
an opportunity to present his
case before the City Council

Measure S has g~nerated almost universal opposition from
the people who are responsible for N~'Yport' s quality of life.
They warn that Measure S requires an endless series of citywide elections over "MINOR" neighborhood
improvements and renovations -up to fifty-five elections in the past ten years if it had been in effect.
They ~am that it delays future improvements at Hoag Hospital for years.
Measu~e S requires the gpod folks on the Peninsula to decide whether the folks
in. CDM can improve their homes ....
It requires the folks in CDM to vote on whether a shopkeeper on Balboa Island tan
add a 500 square foot expansion to his shoe repair store ....
It requires the good folks on Lide Isle to vote on whether a gas station can be pennitted in West Newport.
These "neighborhood" issues shouldn't be decided by citywide elections or "village against village" bias. . . .
Ironically, while Measure S forces all these elections over minor amendments to the general plan it DOES
NOT require a citywide election over the 275-room Dunes Resort Hotel proposal.

"Measure T's backers have gone too far, using
Hoag Hospital as a pawn in their Daily Pilot
ads and mailers as they attempt to defeat
Greenlight Measure S.
Here are the facts ••• "
As a Hoag Hospital
Joard Meml1er since 1995, and member of
the Facilities Planning Committee during that
entire period, I am alarmed that the backers of
Measure T have misrepresented the facts and
have elected to use Hoag Hospital as a pawn in
their attempt to defeat Greenlight/Measure S.
Here are my personal, straight answers about Hoag's
Master Plan versus recent misstatements from
Measurer:
• Hoag Hospltet'a Development Agreement was
approved by the Ctty in 1992, thereby granting the
Hospital the 20 year right to have more than
1,340,000 square feet of hospital Improvements,
most of which was not then built. Today that
1,340,000 total Is part of the City's existing general
plan. It Is not affected by Measure S/Greenlight.
• Ewn after the compa.tion of the ~ pl9f1Md
310,000 eqU11re fMt WOmen's Pevlllon which la
about to begin construction, Hoag Hoepltal will still

and still be within Its 400,000 square foot tlmitatione
under the existing 20 Veal' Development
Agreement.
• The statement attributed to Measure S support-
ers in the ad could not have been referring to the
Hoag Cancer Center (which w as already com-
pleted before 1992) or the Women's Pavilion
(which was not part of the Master Plan 1n 1992). In
fact, Greenlight's July 5th lettpr to the Hospital
states:
"Greenllght supports a strong residential
community and Hoag's planned health
care center expansidn is an essential
part of our vision for the City!'
• I support Measure S/Greenlight and also know first-
hand the details of Hoag Hospital's entitlements
and the Hospital's existing Master Plan. They are
not In conflict, and I could not support Measure
S/Greenllght oth8t'Wlse. I am Insulted that Measure
T overtly chose to so misrepresent and twist readi-
ly available public Information and emblazon such a
highly-charged photograph as a small child In criti-
cal care for their selfish purpose knowing the result
Is to put Hoag Hospital squarely In the cross-tint

Vote YES on Measure T. It places Orange County's toughest traffic relief law
into the City Charter so it can only be changed by voters.
Measure T is a common sense solution to traffic congestion in Newport Beach.
It imposes stringent traffic reduction standards, makes developers pay to improve
traffic and saves Newport Beach taxpayers millions.
'
Newport Beach Roads -A History Lesson
More than fifty percent of the vehicles on Newport Beach roads come from OUTSIDE the city from adjoining cities
and inland cities whose residents are drawn by Newport's glorious beaches. ..
The photo above shows inland cars that inundated Newport Beach to. visit our seaside community as early as the 1930s.
NO local ordinance can do anything to stop the "regi,onal" traffic that flows through our city (unless we can figure out
some way to drain the ocean!).
-Measure T -A Common Sense Solution
f
Measure T requires 'developers to fund programs to reduce current traffic congestion on our .streets and roads.
Measure T requires aqy proposal that adds as little as ONE PERCENT new traffic to any major intersection to pay for
improvements that reduce "rush hour" traffic BELOW ninety percent of the capacity of that intersection.
"I support Measure T because it is a tough, but sensible traffic ·
reduction law. It improves traffic, improves public safety aryl.

that he wouldn't make

have an amazing impact on

Faris and his wife,
Suzanne, recently became

parents, themselves. In Octo·
ber, the couple adopted a
Latino · boy, 2·year·old
Matthew, because they want·
ed to help children in need.
They plan to adopt another

their dog, was also adopted
from a Doberman rescue pro·
gram.
It is fitting, Paris said, that
he became a fow'th-grade
teacher and a Cub Scout
leader because, after his
father died, his role model
was his fourth.grade teacher,
who took him to father·son
activities with the Cub
Scouts.
His teacher instilled in
Paris a desire to help others.
That same desire to help
others bas also translated into
a desire to be involved with
the community, he said,

trash on his walk, going to
City Council meetings to
speak or writing letters to the

THE RACE FOR THE COSTA MESI CIR COUNCIL
Rick Rodgers: Focused on ·solving problems
Jetvtffer Kho
OUR TIMES
COSTA MESA -Running
for City Council was a natur-
al decision for Rick Rodgers.
After all, he ls used to fol~
lowing in his fathe1"s footsteps.
He became a police officer
like his father, and now they
are both running for City
Council in neighboring cities.
Pat, Jlodgers' father, is run-
ning in Irvine. •
Rodgers said he admires
his father for his integrity,
which he said he inherited.
·1 remember when I was 2
or 3 years old I took some
Lifesavers from a store and he
made me take it back and
apologize,• he said. ·1 always
try to do what is right, which
is probal>ly something that
came from my father. Hope-
fully, we'll both win. That
would be something.•
Rodgers, who said he is a
quarter Latino, was born in Cos-
ta Mesa and lived there until his
parents moved to Irvine when
he was in the sixth grade.
After graduating from Cal
State Long Beach, he bought
a house from his parents -
the one he lived in when he
was 2 years old -and has
lived there ever since.
Rodgers is an investigator
on a Los Angeles police com-
mission, but said he hopes to

go back to work as an officer
in the vice department soon.
"I'm only going to be able to
do this a little longer,· he said.
"Sitting in front of a computer is
driving me crazy. I like being
outside all the time and being in
contact with different people
every day. In vice, every day is
different I never know what I'm
going to do one day to the next.
But I like arresting the bad peo-.
pie and helping the victims.•
Rodgers said he liked
working in the vice depart-
ment because he enjoys solv-
ing problems, which he also
hopes to do on the dais.
· One of his projects was to
deal with a group of parolees
who habitually drank alcohol,
took drugs and engaged in
prostitution at a liquor store
and nearby house, he said.
His solution was to involve
a number of different depart-
ments -including the parole
and probation,_gang, alcohol
and beverages control ·and
the city abatement depart-
ments -to clean them up.

I
Thank you for your recent presentations to the Board of Directors of Hoag Memorial Hospital
Presbyterian to describe Measure S, the Green Light .Initiative, and Measure T, the Trafrtc Planning
Initiative. We appreciate your taking the time to explain their purpose, intent, and possible impact on
Hoag.
After considerable deliberation, the Board has decided that the hospital will not take an official
position on either measure. However, since a number of Hoaa supponen have railed questions and
expressed concerns, the Board felt it was important to formulate a respome th9t would provide them with
our sense of the initiatives' potential impact on Hoag's current and future buildin1 plans. Given your
presentations to us, we thought it was appropriate to share this sense with you, u well.
Hoag's cuncnt building projects, including the newly announced Women's Pavilion, are part of
the hospital's approved Master Plan of DcvelopmenL 11"• Muter Plan tpproval, granted in 1992, came
after more than two yea.rs of expensive and time-consumina effort. !Uppity, the Board baa concluded that
neither Measure S nor Measure T would have any affect on our currently approved Muter Plan.
Future building projects, of course, are more problematic. We believe that with continued
advances in medical science and a growing demand for health services, Hoaa will very likely need
additional and different facilities in the future. At the point In time whcn.thele future needs take shape and
become well-defined, we will likely be required to obcaln revi1iom to our: M...er Pl.ID of Development
and to seek an amendment to the City'• Oeaenl Plan. MoteoVer, die Me9Mare S requinlamt for a city-
wide election would most probably be triaeredt addi• expense lild lime (albeit broeder' voter input) to
the process alrtldy in pl.ce.
I uust &J\at this letter clarifies the position of Hoq Hoi.,itaJ. teprdina the two City initiatives. It
reflecu the fec11 u we underatand them, and i1 intended, u noted artier, to tetVe u a bail for respondina

When )le united the helicopter units of

In 1992, Bob Vondnuka was working

Today, Vondruska takes his politics very
""seriously. He's the candidate for the 10th
Assembly District seat occupied by Marilyn
Brewer (R-Newport Beach), and he's running
a campaign that is more coherent and focused
than that or most third-party figures.
Ask Vondruska what he would do differ-
ently in Sacramento, and he responds with all
the restraint or a linebacker charging toward
Bob Vondrulka

"The budget that was passed by the
Assembly this past June?" he asks. "It was
totally unnecessary."
What specifically does be object to?
"Every part of it. Just about everything, I
would get rid of," he said.
~t means slashing public education ·
fundiilg, of course. And Vondrus~ is fine
with that idea.
Also on the chopping block would be most
gun laws and restrictions on the use o( drugs.
They're changes that would seem extreme
even to most conservatives, but Vondruska
thin.ks they would make positive changes.
