Mike Scheafer, the presi- dent of the Costa Mesa New- port Harbor Llons Oub, said Lions Oub and Coast Com- munity College District lawyers will face off in a San- ta Ana courtroom to argue who should be liable for an Irvine woman's ankle injury. The court date is set for 8 a.m. May 13 in Orange County Superior Court. In the summer of 2000, the Fish Fry was held on the Orange Coast College cam- pus because its traditional site, Llons Park, was under construction.

SURf DD SUI Doify Pilot \ Dredging fund gets famous name tag . • Money to help pay for removing silt from the .-Back Bay will be named after envirorunentalists Robinsons and Skinners. June C:.aagrande DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH When Nancy and Jack Skin· ner went to the ctty Council meeting Tuesday to talk about water quality, they didn't expf!ct to see their own names on the agenda. The Skinners, along with Prank and the late Pren Robin· $OD. got a surprise hol¥>f when Mayor Tod Ridgeway announced that a fund for dredging the bay would be named after the four legendary loc::al environmentalists. · •1 can't express what an indispensable resource they have all been ln working towatd clean water 1n the Back Bay,• Ridgeway said in l!Jl118Wldng the decision. The Robinson-Skinner Annuity is a S3.8-million fund that the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board has offered Newport Beach to help pay for dredging of the Back Bay. The money will .go toward continued dredging of the bay after a $32-million Anny Corps of Engineers dredging project ls complete, probably in 2004 . Dredging helps the envi- ronment by removing pollut- ed sediment from the water. The ~oney, which the council on Tuesday voted to accept, comes from a settlement from the 1990 American 1Iader oil spW. The city will invest the money and hold it ln 'an annuity until it ls needed for dredging. N~cy and Jack Sk41ner are longtime local activists for water quality who are active ln . tpe city's Coastal/Bay Wa~: Quality residents advi· sory committee, among other things. Frank and Fran Robinson, also longtime envi· ronmental activists, stopped the Irvine Co. 1n 1969 from ma.k.tng a deal that would have resulted 1n the develop· ment of condominiums and a marina in the Back Bay. Fran Robinson died July 1 of heart failure at age 82. ·we are very bumbled by this honor,• Nancy Skinner said. Marine studies center gets $1-million boost • Now the project rests on whether the ground it will be built on can, literally, support the center. June C:.aagr•nde DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH Though a marine studies cen- ter at Shellmaker Island is $1 million closer to becoming a reality, the feasibility of build· ing the state-of-the-art fadlity remainJ in question. The City Council on Tues- day accepted $1 million from the U.S. Department of Fish and Game to help build the center for joint use by the department, the city, the county, UC Irvine and other agencies. AB planned, the site will house water-qual.fty testing, educational facilities that include an artificial tide pool and a new crew center for the BRIEFLY IN THE NEWS County approves plans for JWA The Orange County Board ot Supervisors kicked off universlty -all sheltered in a center so state of the art that the structure itself helps pre· serve the qulllity of local waters. The project also includes restoration of the Sbellmllkec nature trail and wetlands. But the delicate environ· ment the center seeks to pre· serve could instead spell doom for the project. Because Shellmaker Island ls basically a pile of dredged-up material, it's unclear if the ground ls solid enough to build the one· story building there. "We just don't know yet what the site is capable of holding in the way of a struc· ture," said City Atty. Bob Burnham, who said that a geotechnica.1 survey or other plans to build a new fire sta · tion at John Wayne Airport on Tuesday by approving a $3.9· million contract for the work. JM Contracting Inc. in Downey will build the facility. The county is replacing the studies will ultimately pro- vide the answers. For this and other reasons, Burnham said, it is difficult to project how much the center will cost. Official estimates that have ranged from S4 .5 million to $7 million are rough estimates at best, h' said. About $3 million to $3.5 million is now available for the project, much of it from the American 1Iader oil spill settlement. City officials and environ- mentalists have praised the proposed center as a cutting- edge solution to local water· quality challenges. County officials have already moved water-quality testing to tem- porary trailers at the site in anticipation of a permanent laboratory there. The Depart- ment of Fish and Game plans to manage the Upper New- port Bay Ecological Reserve existing Fire Station No. 33 because it is outmoded. The new Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting station will be 14 ,958 square feet and include six equipment bays. The county plans to pay for from the center. The Sl million the city accepted Tuesday will go mainly w1ard creating detailed plans for the center. "This ls the chance to get the design phase to a point where the community, espe- cially Dover Shores, can see the plans and determine whether they have any con- cerns about the center,• Assistant City Manager Dave Kilt said. Current plans are for a site with a permeated parking lot to control runoff, a design that would drain rain water off the roof into plants, as well as nonobtrusive solar panels for power, Kiff said. He added that additional funding for the pr~ could come from state fi."POSition 40 funds. Proposition 40, which passed on May 5, pro· vides state funds for parks. the new station with 80% m grant money from the Feder· a.I Aviation Administration.

Self-tracking Drama students at Estancia High concentrate on discipline as part of the sch ool's character education program Deirdre Newman D AILY PILOT A fter two weeks of rehearsal for the spring musical, "Bells are Rmging: director Pauline Maranian sat down with the cast and had a heart-to-heart talk about how things h~d been going. "What went on last night and how did your discipline or lack of it affect the way rehearsal went?" Maranian asked. The focus on discipline lS part of the schoolwide character education program that has teachers discussmg a new positive trait every month. Maranian's students say the talk was valuable because they shoulder a lot of responsibility for the show, both onstage and off. The show is so obscure that the students and their parents will build the set because there is nowhere to rent it, Maranian said. "I think that in our whole production scheme, you have to have seU-dlscipline or nothing will get done,• said senior Cliff Glacy, 18. "Because we're given a certain amount of tasks to do and have to go forth .• Maranian began by chscussing how important discipline is for singing. "The most disciplinary thing you will be doing is finding the right note when some- one is singing the wrong note in your ears,· Maranian said. She also encouraged them to practice the songs dunng their time off instead of pop- ping Britney Spears into their Walkmans. CARPET Senior Cliff Glacy, 18, participates in a character development discussion. Maranian also asked the students to look around the school and notice who is chsci- plined in various areas. Many of her stu- dents agreed that their vocal director, CraJg Jensen, epitomizes the character trait. "In the beginrung. we were a sad pack of misfits,· said seruor Alex Winnett, 18. "Mr. Jensen whipped us into shape pretty well.· Mararuan also asked students how they will juggle school and rehearsals during the month of May, when she said things can get a little crazy. Junior Tonya Narbaez said a dose of sell-discipline will come in handy for a lot of facets in her life next month. "I think sell-discipline has a lot to do with the show,· the 17-year-old said. "But it also filters into everyday life with school, family and fnends. We have (Advanced Placement) tests coming up and have to focus on everything.· Maranian congratulated the seniors who stuck with the production class for the past three years. "You guys have grown a lot through drama,· Maranian said. "Th.is is the best class for determining character.

"He's someone we've been keeping our eye on since the beginning of the festival We thought this would be the perlect year." This spring 1s also shaping up to be the most global year, with 27 countries represented through the screenmgs. "Certainly we make a strong effort to program films that reflect our community and the diversity in our c<>mmunity, but this year It was just the way all the films came in,• Quartararo said. Another nouceable trend in sub- rruss1ons was the presence of non- fiction works. •Maybe it's the popularity of the what has been deeded,· said Jim McGee, a Newport Coast resident and member of the committee. McGee was ctlso a leader in annex- ing the area. City officiAls are working with the county to transfer the money through the county-issued tax bills.

Sometimes those stories are even more amn.z!ng than fiction.• Fiction or not, features are far from boarding the attention. In addition to shorts, a tribute to direc· tor Joseph McGinty (a.k.a. McG and of "Charlie's Angels" fame) will chronicle the former local'a beginnings in music videos. "Music videos are probably the mo9t accessible and readily watched form of short films,• Schwenk said. •And they also axe a pathway to feature-film making. and McG is a clear example.• To pay tribute to all things film, the festival will also hold an Ad Club Event to honor commercials, which o,rganizers consider mini-films. said recent talks with county repre- sentatives suggest 1t can be done. "There are no guarantees yet, but I think it's going to work out,• Kurth said. Refund amounts will vary from homeowner to homeowner, based on the amount of assessment district tax each resident pays.

Sherry, meanwhile, no longer buys off-season watennelon at the supermarket, has given up .regular massages, gets her hair cut at a walk-in shop and does her own house cleaning. In these moves toward austerity, there· are still a good many choices on the bubble, depending on how well the freelancing goes. Such things as having the dog's teeth cleaned, eliminating cable TV, giv- ing up a second car -and similar dracoruan measures. What isn't on the bubble is a whole range of activities that were getting rusty rrom lack of use. We've redJ.scovered home cooking, and chnner-table conversation is no longer dominated by office talk. My wife once again carries a book with a place marker wherever she goes. She stops at the piano instead of passtng it by without a look. We see more movies we used to miss - But ask Schwenk and Quar- tararo what they're most looking forward to and they'll name some· thing more personal than ~n­ ings: the seminars.

So, it impressed us great- ly Tuesday night when the mayor of Newport Beach announced the city will cre- ate a partnership with the city of Costa Mesa to make such a park a reality. We'll be even more impressed if · the cities take the notj.on all the way and eventually cut a ribbon on a joint-use park. The cities must know they're behind the curve on this one. Not everyone wants to swf or snowboard and, as a result, need an environment in which they can skate without worrying anyone about potential properly damage. It's a shame that skate- boarders have developed what some deem an outlaw image. In truth, they simply have no place to skate and have to skate anywhere they can. The latter fact irks some, but what are they expected to do? Give up a sport they can call their own? No. And now, we hope they'll have a place of t!leir own to practice the sport they love. Costa Mesa officials have considered building a skate park for about a decade and, as recently as a year ago, debated the topic, but council members couldn't agree on a site. The city then cre~ted a mobile skate park that still travels around the city. Newport Beach , mean- while. added more restric- tions to skateboarding in city parks a couple of months ag~. Skateboarders are no longer allowed to use any paved swface with a slope of 6 % grade or steeper and cannot skate on benches, planters, rail- ings and other structures. Again, skateboarders lc:>st freedom and locations. The solution Newport Beach arrived at Tuesday makes perfect sense. After all, Newport-Mesa shares a school district, a police heli- copter, a few sports leagues and more, so the cities should team up for a skate park from which both cities can benefit We hope the Newport-Mesa Unified School District also enters the effort. Now, and we probably speak for the community's skateboarders as well, we can't wait to hear the ideas coming out of each camp irivolved. Skate on. Proposed Mormon temple draws some hesitation I feel compelled to write in response to two recent Daily Pilot pieces. The first is an article regarding the proposed Mormon tem- ple next to Uie current meet- inghouse oil Bonita Canyon Drive ( •iemple debate enters cyberspace," March 2), and then the Community Commentary letter by J. Donald Turner (•Mormon temple will benefit Newport Beach," March 21). From reading the first piece, we appear to be in the midst of an organized public relations campaign directed from Salt Lake, City in an effort to sway the Newport Beach City Council with the warm endorse- ments of the proposed tem- ple ~om both nonresidents and carefully selected resi· dents of Newport' Beach. I fear that the voices of loccll residents will be drowned out under this deluge.

Assemblyman John Campbell has agreed to withdraw Assembly Bill 2190, which would extend El Morro leases for at least five addi- tional years and increase the rents to market rates, earmarking these funds for rehabilitation of the cot- tages in the historic district of our publicly owned coastal park. The Friends of the Irvine Coast, upon learning that El Morro Village (formerly El Morro Investments Inc.) had hired a lawyer, a lobbyist and a public relations consultant and was approaching Orange County legisla- tors to introduce a bill to extend their stay, promptly sounded the alarm to concerned citizens and organiza- tions. In addition to the #Friends," pub- lic-spirited groups such as the Lagu- na Greenbelt, Village Laguna, Lagu- na North Neighborhood Assn. and the Sierra Club Conservation Com- mittee not only took early and strong board positions, but encouraged their members to write, call or e-mail deci- sion makers on this issue. Campbell and the Water Parks and Wildlife Ed Merrilees COMMUNITY COMMENTARY Committee became the focus of the Friends' letter-writing campaign at the Women For: Orange County organization's "Great American Write-In" held at UCI on March 13. This united storm of protest. boosted by the strong voter approval of Park Bond 2002 (Proposition 40) and a concerted lobbying effort in Sacramento, is credited with moving John Campbell, 70th Assembly Dis- trict representative, to withdraw his •funding proposal for Crystal Cove Historic Distiict" in order "to see the cottages restored" weeks before its first legislative committee'hearing. He will urge Gov. Gray Davis to allo- cate Proposition 40 monies in the May budget revision and may rein- troduce this bill if funding lags.

That won't hap.- pen at Wmgnuts, 3030 Har- bor Blvd., Costa Mesa, which s~ in all things wllig's. The plates, which range in size from 10 to 100 wi.ogs, correspondingly ranged in price from $6.95 and $39.95. My dining companions - my friend and my 2-year-old son -and I feasted on three of the 30 flavors of wings: buffalo, chipotle barbecue and kung pap. Although we ordered •taster" plates of all Ulree, we still bad two take-home boxes at the end of the meal. It wasn't for a lack of trying. Each flavor was so del.Joous, we tried our hardest to finish them off. Each wing was so meaty, we realized we should resign our dttempl to further expand our waist- lines and save the rest for a tasty lunch the next day. Only three lone dupotle wmgs remained at the end of the cijnner, proVUlg our favorite flavor. Buffalo wmgs came in second, leavmg us with mostly kung pao lert- overs. world's mo t finicky eater -devoured his •young hy- ers • cheeseburger, which was no small feat, conslder- ing the patty was adult- sized and served with a mound of criss-cut fries ($4.99). For those of you w.t}o shudder at the thought of 2- and 3-year-olqs running around with their gooey lit- tle fingers poised to land on your newly laundered khakis, take heart in the fact that the hostess seemed to seat all the families on one side of the restaurant. By the time the subject of dessert came up, we had already loosened our belt buckles As templ1ng as the bot cran- berry-apple cobbler sound- ed, I sunply could not fath- om the thought of another bite. If the food was any md1cation, the desserts are most likely heavenly. Airplanes dominate the restaurant's decor, and the walls are covered with pho- tdgtaphs, murals and maga- zine covers featuring the Oy- inQ machines. Wingnuts just landed in Costa Mesa a few w~ ago, filling out the ~~e real estate in the Tar- g,et &eatlands center. EAN HtU.ER I OAll.Y Pit.OT Wlngnuts restaurant ln the Target GreaUand center ln Costa Mesa specializes ln wings. I assumed the kung pao wU1gs would carry the same heat as the trad1llonal dtsh. They did not, but in!>tead offered a uniquely Onental flavor that was still mouth watering. Because I hdve an affinity for the spicier things m ltfe, I focu sed my atlen- tlon on the ch1potle bdrbe- cue and buffalo wings One of the best things about the restaurant is bland dnd completely nonpalatdl the napkins. They are th1ck, strong and weJJ-equipped lo nd your hands of tantalizing wing Sduces.

Our appetizer of blackened chicken fundido ($4.75) -a cheesy, spicy sauce with chunks of chick- en -was served with cn'>p tortilla chips, perfect for dip- ping.

Doyle interests greedy Centabank CEO Simon O'Reilly (Anthony La Paglia) in the software, a bargain that starts to look like a Faustian pact when O'Reilly puts the heat on You see, O'Reilly is in trou- ble with the bank's board of directors, who want to know why proflts aren't up even though he's been closing branches. The software could be his redemption Meanwhile. Centabank finds itself in the midst of legal trouble when a young couple sues after a Ce ntabank-hired process server serves bankruptcy papers to their young son, resulting in his death. There's also a bit of romance. as Doyle falls for a teller (Sibylla Budd), only to be unsure lf she's the re for the bank or for him. Things that seem unrelated at the beqtnning wrap up neatly at the end. It would almost seem too neat, except director and screenwnter Connolly clev- erly lays down the groundwork throughout Rather than spoorung the story to his auctience. he expects them to be smart enough to follow along The cinematography by 1hstan Milam combined with Connolly's dJrection leaves a trail of indelible images.

Lorena Ochoa is what the LPGA Tour is looking ror, and, if she does what many predict she'll do, folks at Mesa Verde Country Club will always be able to say, •1 knew her when ... • It's always exciting to see golf visitors to the Newport-Mesa community go on to big things, and Ochoa, of Mexico, is the latest case. A sophomore at the University or Arizona, Ochoa captured her mind-boggling seventh straight Richard Dunn &OU championship, an NCAA record, last weekend at the PING/ Arizona State Invitational. What Ochoa ts doing on the NCAA women's golf scene IS nothing short or Tigeresque. In fact, it's even better. She has won every collegiate tournament she has entered this season, and, after Sunday's win at ASU, she lowered her stroke average to 69.65, well below her record-setting mark or 71.33 last year as a freshman. "She's better than Tiger was ... at least her record's better than Tiger's, but, of course, she's not playing the same competition,· Mesa Verde head golf professional Tom Sargent said Wednesday. "She's 7 for 7 and wants to wm every tournament she enters this year. She wants to go 10 for 10. • Widely considered the best collegiate player in the country, and maybe ever, Ochoa now has 11 championships in her bnef collegiate career, tying her with Nancy Lopez (University of Tulsa) for Ou.rd on the all-time NCAA b.st for individual medalist honors. Last summer, Ochoa was a JOY to meet and interview during the Girls Junior America's Cup Team Matches at Mesa Verde, which was won by the host Southern California Section. Ochoa, playing ror defending champion Mexico, was articulate and interesting and will go a long way oo the LPGA Tour and throughout her career on the international women's golf landscape. After the LPG.A Tour'• Player Summit, it should be interesting to see any changes coming forth from Its players, who were told by Commissioner Ty Votaw to do a better job of marketing themselves, among other things. He said that one or the ways to accomplish that was to improve their appearance and to be more fan-friendly. ·we have to do more to sell ourselves off the goH course,• Votaw said. Once Mesa Verde completes Its S7-milliop clubhouse remodeling project, the venerable Costa Mesa dub wUl be a hot ticket for 1.PGA Tour offidals to pursue as a possible host site of an event.
