John Smith, a Pennsylvania native who moved to California in 1940, was visited by two council members in 1956 and asked to fill an unexpected vacancy. He bad shown how active he was in various community aspects of the city and had impressed council members with his service-oriented ways. "The council went out and wanted him," said Bob Wilson, fonner mayor of the city and historian. "He was just a civilian like you." The story, according to Wilson's history "From Goat Hill to City of the Arts: The History of Costa Mesa, .. goes that Smith was happy with the invitation. He became mayor of Costa Mesa in 1958. Wtlson's book tells us that the late Smith, who died in 1981, was orphaned at the age of two and learned virtues like honesty and responsibility at an orphanage. After moving to California, he joined the U.S. Air Force and became a cadet at the Santa Ana Army Air Base. Smith later became a figh ter pilot and served in the 459th Fighter Squadron. As a member of the community after all the military service, Smith was just as active. I le was a John Smith devoted member of the Costa Mesa Kiwanis Oub, of the Prince of Peace Lutheran Cllurcb and an appointed . member of the Boys' Empire Scout Council of Orange County, according to Wilson's book. He was president of the Orange County Chapter of the California League of Cities and was "about as sweet as they come, .. Wtlson added.

But rarely do they sweat like this. On Saturday morning, about 40 red-faced and glistening vol- unteers were hip-deep in the backbreaking task of tearing up nonnative plants from a por- tion of the Back Bay. By 11 a.m .. they had removed aboul l ,000 pounds of mustard plant, ice plant and a species of weed known as Brazilian pepper tree. "These species of plants choke out the plants nauve to this area~at the wildJife rely o n to eat, to nest and to eat bugs off of,· explained Kristina Finstad of the California Coastal Commission, one of about a haJf-dozen organ11a- tions involved in removing 1he invasive species. Ice plant. for ex.ample, 1s a South African species thal was introduced to North America by roadway builders who thought it would help prevent erosion, Finstad explained. But the plant has been nothing but trouble. ISs short roots actually help cause erosion and it has spread to places like the Back Bay. There, it replaces native spec1ei. hlce piclcle weed and va - rieties of coastaJ sage scrub. which provide homes for en dangered birds like the ligh1 - footed clapper rail. Volunteers will return in the coming months to plant some of these native species. Satur- day's event was pilot project in an o ngoing series of outings to restore the entire coast.

Over the yean, u the world became a more dangerous place, Halloween fell from favor. By the 1990I, Halloween. and certainly triclc-or-tleating, were OD the brink of extinction. But In the la.st five years or so, the non-kids have come to the rescue. Thday, you see the proof of my humble little theorem all across the Land of Newport-Mesa. More and more homes are being decorated for Halloween, some of them quite elaborately. In my work, which has yet to be defined, I visit a lot of companies. Every year, offices are being decked out with more and more Halloween stuff, to say nothing of pumpkin-carving contests, costume contests, et cetera. et cetera. There was a time, "not long ago, when Halloween decorations were strictly for Mrs. Hanson's fifth grade classroom -paper mache pumpkins, pictures of witches, cardboard ghosts and black cats that had their arms and legs hinged with those little round metal grommets. ff you ever put two of those things away in the same place, the arms and legs would get hopelessly entangled and you'd have to throw everything out But that was then and this is now. Today, there are stylish Halloween banners for outside your house, witches and skeletons that do everything but windows, incredibly realistic holograms Boating in crystal balls and strings of pumpkin lights, bat lights, witch lights, you-name-it lights. But the biggest evidence of FEAR Continued from Al every few minutes. "The guy in the electric chair having the switch thrown on him, getting shocked, he's got to act like he's getting shoclced every couple of minutes for two or three hours," Craig said. Luckily, they have some good volunteers: parents of Andersen students and even members of the Corona del Mar High School DramaOub. "A good~ of success for us is when people come back through the hawtted house one or two or three times, maybe come through on Sab.IJ'day then come back Sunday," said Oaig. who has been lnvoM!d in the .Andersen fund-raiser foe aO three yean; of its existence..

They have the best rubber nitl I haw ever seen. These things are so realistic they could fool a rat. In fact. as goofy items go, they have the best I've ever seen, and I've seen a lot. I have been to more novelty stores than I care to admit. The best, by the way, Is Ye Olde Curiosity Shop In Seattle, which is on the docb just below Pike Place Market and has been there, believe it or not, since 1899. I never ever leave there without a bag full of things like the glowing "alien eyeball" glasses, and the glow·in-the-dark alien family. which is one of the best gift ideas ever, in my estimation, appropriate for any occasion. There's a mom alien, a dad alien and three baby aliens, all holding hands.. Tum the lights out and they all glow bright green -mom, dad and the kids. But I must say, with no disrespect intended, that Roger's Gardens' rubber rats are way more realistic than the rubber rats at Ye Olde Curiosity Shop. Whether you celebrate the old Halloween or the new, celebrate something for heaven's sake. Have fun, keep an eye on the kids, and if you run out of rubber rats, you lcnow where to find them.

We know what it is like to have your work come under scrutiny each and everyday . With the advent of standardized test scores like the Academic Performance Index. the scrutiny for school officials is as intense as ever. This year's index revealed a mixed bag of results for the Newport-Mesa Unified School District. The district did make a strong showing, with 62% of its schoQls meeting targeted goals of · achievement compared to 53% of schools statewide accomplishing that same goal . Indeed, 11 district schools exhibited growth in all areas, ma.king the district eligible for the Governor's Performance Awanl program, no easy feat College Park elementary in Costa Mesa saw an astonishing 75 point increase over its projected growth of 9 points. That total of 84 points pushed its overall score from 627 last year to 711 this year. Middle College High School at Orange Coast College and TeWIIlkle Middle School also saw strong growth in achievement this year. In contrast, however, IO schools saw a decline in scores, most notably at all four district high schools, with Estancia falling off its target by 26 points. And other schools that had shown tremendous growth previously, saw that growth reversed, if only by small portions. Those drops would be alarming if it weren't for some predJctable reasons. District officials suspect the addltion of the state's English/Language Arl8 standards, instead of solely the Stanford-9 Achievement Test. may be the reason for the lower scores. With the large population of non-English speaking students in Costa Mesa schools, there is litde doubt that district offictals have their hands full in trying to get these students up lQ state standards. We have opined often that district officials are well aware of the challenges faced by limited or non-English speakers, and they need to quit using that as an excuse and instead find ways to fix the problem. And they have done just that The work of principals Sharon Blakely at Whittier and Carol Lang at College Park stand out, as well as district administrators and leaders who have taken an active approach toward improving the pecfonnance of those non-English sp9akers. As these new scores show, there is still work to be done, but there's evidence to believe these scores are merely understandable shifts in the numbers rather than a trend. We are growing ever confident that the district is ready to meet the dJ.allenges it faces in improving scores over the long haul and prove Itself to all those who pay close attention. Problem interse,ction needs council action D rivers who routinely pass Iris Avenue on F.ast Coast Highway likely are familiar with what makes the intersection dangerous: lt is a blind bill directly between stop lights at Goldenrod and Marguerite Avenue, enabling drivers to pick up too much speed. A well-witnessed accident on Sept 26 was the most recent reminder of this danger. Fortunately. while many who saw the accident thought it might involve a fatality, it resulted only in minor injuries to the 19-year-old victim. Following the accident, enough residents spoke up to police and city officials that last week the Newport Beach City Council rightly spent time discussing the problem and possible solutions. The council's responsiveness to residents' concerns is deserving of applause. The message delivered at the meeting. however, was a bit more of a mixed bag. Too much of the discussion was on what the city already ls doing- how $100,000 has been set aside to look at putting crosswalks in Corona del Mar, among other changes -and what the limitations are, specifically that while the California Department of Ilansportation controls the road there Is only so much the city can do. Of course. the city is trying to get control from c.amans as part of the Vision 2004 renovation project. But, while commerce can perhaps wait nearly two years for beautiftcation. safety cannot. Having Identified this comer as a problem, city officials need to be aggressive in finding a solution. c.antans should not be cited as a reason why the problem cannot be fixed. What the solution ls, only good, open debate will say. Perhaps it is a Oashing )'.ellow light or crosswalk. Perhaps it ls distinctive pedestrian-crossing sign or even a full stop. Whatever it ls, there seems little debate that a solution is needed. It is needed as soon as possible.

With all the recent debacles, corponte fraud and other forms of mismanagement, 1 can't help but to think that something fundamental bas gone astray. Please don't gel me wrong, I believe tba1 the vast majoritY of companies 1arge and small are made up of well-intentioned, hard working individuals interested in doing the right thing. Yet, I do remember in years past, where it was wen ingrained in the American fabric to be honest. to help your neighbor in need and where such events woWd be outright untrunkable. Having heard enough about the "what to dos" for success, 1 thought I'd compile my very own "what not to dos" in business. Perhaps, the CEOs of large and small companies would gain from this. I. Don't lose trust with your customers. Your success is based on a mutual Wlderstanding that you will exercise honesty and integrity and be sincerely interested in providing them with the persona.I service they desire. 2. Don't lose trust with those who have invested in you. Be it your employees, stockholders or vendors in tough times, or otherwise stay connected with those who are impacted by the degree of your success and communicate the realities that you face. • J. Don't strive lo be successful at the expense of others. Use the will and assistance of others to add to your success. ---. 4. Don't be pompous' or smug. Tilt lines between success and failure are~ not all 1 far:± The coastal communities that su1TOund Hodson Lighting are made of indivi s just as ap ed by these events. My staff and I will continue to provide you with the local, professional hometown service __,,, you've come accustomed to since 1968. With the riU of sounding a bit corny, we really do take great pnde in serving each and every one of you in the very best way possible. I do believe that the trying times we face today, here and abroad will soon pass. I recall sitting by a dis1.raught friend after September 11 , "Will trus ever happen again?" she asked me. "Most likely," I replied. "but the world will adjust. There is way too much al stake. Stability in the world and the respect for basic human values will prevail."

"I tell nay CUlfOmerS not to worry, but ..._. to choose home floorin8-wieely imd ~ in lldvmce fc. ICCideats," said John Bloeser of Jobn Bloeler Carpet OM in Costa Mesa. "If you think ahe.cl, you can avoid lasting floer trauma and handle anything from inevitable stains to heavy appliance and furniture dents." Indeed. the last thing anyone wants is to invest time and money in flooring that ID&1Cbea the decor, only to see it maned by a stain, dent or scuff. "There is nothing worse than ruining your perfect loot with drag marks when the refrigerator is moved." Prank Reaqy, senior vice president for Armstrong Nonh . American Aooring eitplained. "Consumers want a floor that will look just as great down the road as it did the day of instaJlation. Fortunately, advances in floor covering combined with a strong defense against floor covering's enemies make this easier than ever." With that m mind, ~ are the top five enemies or household flooring and how to combat them: Dirt and grit -Plain old dirt is among he most common enemies of floor covering. It can scratch and dull the surface of wood or vinyl floors, make carpets and rugs loot dingy and damage fibers. Use doormats as your first line of defense to capture dirt before it can be tracked in. Frequent vacuuming, supplemented by annual, professional cleaning is your best weapon when it comes to protecting carpets and rugs from dirt that escapes the doormat. As for hardwood, vinyl. tile and laminate floors, vacuuming, sweeping and occasional mopping with an appropriate cleaner made for that surface is a must. Food stains -ln every household., there arc bound to be a few spills. Red wine, fruit juice and coffee are among the worst offenders wheo it comes to carpeting and rugs. Before attempting to remove a stain yourself, check the ~ guide and warranty on your flooring and be sure to foUow the manufacturer's advice or you may invalidate your Warl'llJlty. If your warranty allows, remove stains with a solution of one-half teaspoon clear dishwashing detergent and one cup of wann water. Simply take a clean white cloth or unprinted paper towel and slowly blot the stain Corner TV Armoire and bookcases are available in custom sizes and con.figurations.

For stubboro stains, you may need to follow the det«gcn& solution with white vinegar. Ri.nte the vinegar away by bk>Uin& again with warm water. Prepare for the worst by gathering all yoor a.in removal tools into a tint.ad kit. Before you buy carpet. loot for good stain proccction.

Heavy furniture and appliMccs can leave ugly indentations and scralchcs on floors. To prevent problems, never skimp on the cushion beneath carpeting or area rugs. A thick cushion can aave the life of your floor covering. Put glides under furniture legs and appliances to make them easier to move. To deal Enlli•b Country China with tu:med lep ia 74W x 18D x 82H.

Ann Mudgett of The China Source said, ''I really didn't believe it would affect us," referring to the strike affecting the ports. "When I . went to Shanghai to pick up my container of fall merchandise, I believed the strike would be halted and the backlog cleared before my shipment arrived. But now, my shipment is sitting out there and the dock worlc.ers are off-loading the srups, but according to the news, very, very slowly. What makes that especially difficult is that I was already low on invenlOry." Feeling the pain of the strike and its complications, like many other retailers, Mudgett will simply have to wait it out. In the meantime, she has decided to present her dilemma as an opportunity for her customers. "I have many elients who have been loyal customers since my first container five years ago, so until the new shipment arrives, what merchandise I presently ha"'..e will be on sale ~half-price -a sale level I've never done before -as long as it lasts," she said Mudgett does explain that sale sceken will be ~lliriid" to look at the pictures of all the antique furniture she lovingly selected, now floating off Hunti!'gton Beach and share her anticipation of the delayed anival.
