COSTA MESA -As a die-hard
cold warrior in the Reagan White
House, Rep. Dana Rohrabacher saw
Afghanistan as a crucial battle-
ground in U:le fight against the
spread of communism.
Robrabacher, whose district
. includes Costa Mesa, unblinkingly
supported the funneling of hun·
dreds of millions of dollars a year in
aid to moujahedeen rebels at. odds
with Soviet lnYaden.
But once the war was over -the
Soviets limped out of the counby in
1989 after a decade of losses -our
colinays government stopped writ-
ing the fat checks.
•1 believe that the people of
Afghanistan gave a great gift to the
world, .. Rohrabacher said. :rt was
their bravery that broke U:le back of
U:le Soviet empire ... We owed them
something. It was a debt that was
never paid."
Instead or working to rebuild U:le
war-tom country, the first Bush
Administration applied its resources
elsewhere.
Rohrabacher says that abandon-
ment fueled the rise of the Muslim
extremists now running the counby.
It has been the Taliban regime, led
by Mullah Mohammed Omar, that
has laid out the welcome mat to
Osama bin Laden and oilier Islamic
terrorists.
Rohrabacher's fascination with
Afghanistan runs deeper than just a
curiosity to seek out news about the
region. The congressman has taken
a handful of colorful b'ips to U:le
counby, built friendships with local
warlords and lobbied high-ranking
federal officials to take a more
active role in Afghan affairs.
On Sept. 17, Rohrabacher deliv-

A bout 325 people gathered under a blanket of
gray sky in Newport Beach on Sunday to
wallc alOI)g the Back Bay, learn about one
another and help tight world hunger.
The 13th annual United Interfaith Communities
Reaching Out to People Hunger Walk was one of
2,000 walks held nationwide to raise funds to educate
and deal with world hunger.
The six-mile walk took participants from St Mark
Presbyterian Church along the Back Bay to the Peter
and Mary Muth Interpretive Center and then back to
the church.
Imam Mostafa Qazwinl of the Islamic Education
Center of Orange County in Costa Mesa began the
walk with a prayer and then hoisted the American
flag as he led walkers down East Bluff. Along the
way, Qazwini cleared up misconceptions about the
Muslim faith.
•for us as Muslims, (the walk) has a lot to do with
what happened Sept. 11. We want people to make
special notice of Muslims here, that we want to show
unity and solidarity with members of other faith com-
munities,• said Qazwini. e first.time perticipant

UPPER NEWPORT BAY -Two
large-scale construction projects
have virtually halted the usual
parade of walkers and bicycle riders
on Back Bay Onve.
However, some determined souls
are bypassing large warning signs to
continue using the road, project man-
agers said.
·we would really like folks to stay
out of the job site because we do
have heavy construction equ?.p-
ment, • said Mike Bock, a manager
with the Orange County Sanitation
District. •We do have folks ignOiing
the signs.·
The sanitation district in Septem-
ber launched an $8.09-million effort
to replace a major sewer artery
snaking along the eastern edge of
Upper Newport Bay.
During the project. the d:istrlct will
repair 2,700 feet of pipe and replace
another 6,800 feet between the New·
port Dunes Resort and Big Canyon.
District officials learned they
needed to replace the com>ded :U-
inch iron pipe when a mudslide
exposed e.n array of pinhole leaks
during the El Nino rains in 1998.
Workers are busy digging treDcb-
es, laying pipe and pouring concrete
in the first of four phases of the projed.
The first section of the project.
from Shellmaker Island to San
Joaquin Hills Road, is expected to be
completed by Nov. 30. 1be seooDd
phase, set for between Dec. 1 and
Feb. 15, will revamp pipeline from
San Joaquin Hills Road to Big
Canyon.
For the third stage, the district wlD
use robot technology to IDlOOth out
the interior of an existing liJie. A new,
smaller pipe will then be inserted
inside tbe existirig one.

Did you bear about

ber in Huntington Beach who
waDll to make it illegal to

thinks that boaters are just

like that. if the!e is ever a

THE HARBOR COLUMN ..,.,--
pie rule is to use your com-
mon sense and remember if
more than two boats are on a
collision course, then it is
evezy skipper's responsibility
to avoid the collision.
Lastly, what is your hwry
during your harbor cruise
anyway? Let's have an enjoy-
able and safe time.

Tip for the week: Use the
proper etiquette when using
the VHF marine band racbo
aboard most boats.
The VHF radio is your best
friend if you are stranded and
need to call for assistance or
for an emergency. Keep in
mind that when you transmit
on the radio, other boaters are
able to hear your conversa-
tion. so keep it dean.
It's good that others can
bear because if you are sink·
ing, the nearest boat can axne
to your aid. If you use a c:ell
phone, bawevel-, they can't,
and boats with di.rediOOal find.
ing eqidpnent wm't be able to
pinpoint your locatiml. ettber.
So place your call 00 chan-

If you are calling the Coast
. Guard. use the group (area)
name if you know it and the
Coast Guard will most likely
switch you to channel 22A for
further commwlications.
To call the harbor master,
first state what barta -such

the appqlliate dispatcher will

In UMM, on a trtp to the Kyber Pass

Rohrabacher met with the country's
major factions.
Afghanistan, like the oft-invaded
Poland and ethnically roiled former
Yugoslavia, bas had a turbulent histo-
ry. The country emerged from British
control in 1919, after winning the
1bird Anglo-Afghan War, to declare
independence. After the assassination
of King Muhammad Nadir Shah in
1933, Zahir Shah ascended to power.
"He is still the leg-
endary king to them." Dana
There were at least seven major
factions in the country at the time,
Rohrabacher said. One of those was
the Wahhabi branch of Islam. the

group that includes Bin Laden. Of

Operating behind a young,

standing is a luxury not afforded
Bradshaw too often. He has been
sacked 13 times this fall and

been sidelined.
In additioo. senior guard Bryan
Breland has shifted from right
guard, to left, back to the right
side. Badorek has started at right

Brinkley also credits the
versatility of senior David
carriers that included Asuega

Cabico (61 yards on 14

Amburgey recovered a
