THE VERDICT

M. ansionlz.ation la a word I only
learned recently. A8 I
understand It. this is used
when someone repJaces a small
house with a much larger one. Of
small houses, I have coosiderable
expf:rlence.
When I went to coDege, I lived with
my pa.rents In a small house in
. Maywood during
the school year.
During the
summer, a bunch
. of us would rent a
room in Balboa,
four or five of us to
a room, usually
sleeping two to a
bed. In those days.

sexual preference.
When I was first married, we lived
on the peninsula in a small house
with a single twin bed. That wasn't
any problem for ardent newlyweds.
but when Katie became pregnant, my
slim. 110-pound bride was
transfonned into a whopping
170-pound m other-to-be, and I spent
about five months sleeping with one
hand on the floor so I wouldn't
tumble out of bed.
From there, we moved to the
bayfront of the Uttle Island, where we
rented another small house, this one
with a large fronryan:I of sand. It was
there that I built my first -and last
-construction project. a playpen of
chicken wire. No self-respecting
chicken would have put foot in that
playpen.
Fortunately, 2-year-old children
aren't as picky as chickens. and our
daughter played quite happily in that
playpen. Then one day, Katie looked
out the window to check on her and,
to her horror, the playpen was empty.
She Oew out to the empty yard,
looked across the beach and noticed
an unusual ripple. Running into the
water. she rettieved our daughter who

was not only unattractive, it was also
unsafe.

East Santa Ana Heights, Bay

June Casaarande
Daily Pilot
NEWPORT BF.ACH -East Santa Ana
Heights, Bay Knolls and the l::.merson area
will become part of Newpon Beach on JuJy
I . But some surrounding areas may not be
so lucky.
Only about 4-0 people protested the an-
nexation of the three areas to Newport
Beach during the county's official protest
period. which ended Monday morning. Un-
der county rules, if more than half of the
registered voters living in the area had pro-
tesred the annexation, the process would
have been put to a vote or stopped. East
Santa Ana Heights is near the nonhem end
of the Back Bay and has a population of
about l,000; Bay Knolls hac; about 250 resi-
dents; and the Emerson tract in cludes just
nine parcels.
A majority of residents in the area who
have spoken at public forums have sup-
ported annexation to Newpon because of
the city's high level of services, the prestige
of a Newport Beach address and the result-
ing potential increase in their property val-
ues .
·1 am very thrilled," said Marlene Hester,
a resident of Bayview Avenue in East safita
Ana Heights. "We've been hoping and want-
ing to be a part of Newport Beach officially
for as long as we've been here.·
The annexation is less of a boon to the
city. Because Santa Ana Heights is a redevel-
opment area, most of its taxes are ear-
marked through 2035 for paying back. re-
development funds put fonh by the county.
As a result. the city will receive only about
$110,000 a year in tax revenues from the
area until that time. Officials say that as the
years go by this will be less than the cost of
providing police, 6re and other services to
the area
City Manager Homer Bludau said the
city's takeover of the area should be a
smooth one. The city already provides some ·
6re and police service to the area. Unlike the
rest of the city, which recetves free trash
pickup, residents of the newfy annexed ar-

fast! As a result. a new kind of
"internet language" is
evolving. with phrases like SARA "be right back" and "laugh BRYANT out loud" simply expressed as
"brb" and "lol." had a good story on my mind
and was writing it out as fut as I

Messenger, an Internet program that
has changed my life. Some people
compare it to e-mails, but it is a
completely different way to
·communicate. With e-mails. you send
your message and ii just sits in the
recipient's mailbox until they get
around to checking their mail. Sure,
this is fine, but there is n o sense of a
real conversation going on.
With instant messaging programs.
like AIM, you have a personal screen
name and a personalized buddy list
that pops up on the computer screen
when you sign on. On this buddy list
are the screen names of all the people
you keep in touch with, along with an
indicator of whether or not they are
online. If they are onJine, you c;an click
on their screen name and an instant
message window will pop up on the
screen. All you have lo do is begin
' : typing your message; a good place to
' start Is with "hello." Now, this is where
AJM is different from e-mail. Instantly,
your message is sent to the other
person (hence. the name instant
_ messenger), and it pops up on their
computer screen. They can then
respond to your message, and a
conversation ls started.
AIM is like talking on the phone, but
• .. it requires more time, because every
.. comment is ryped out. I wonder if the
. ··AIM experience is like going back to
what communication was like before
• ·. there were telephones. By having to
write out your thoughts. you slow
down and choose your words more
carefully. You also have a chance to
read and think about what the other
person is telling you before you
respond. The other obvious difference
is that, unlike talldng on the phone,
you can have multiple instant
message windows open
simultaneously and talk to many
people at once. This Is a great for
developing multi-tasking skills,
though sometimes I get carried away
and figure this must be what it ls like
to be an air-traffic controller.
We have all heard someone express
dismay that computers make kids
more distant because all they do ls sit
in front of their computer and have
little or no interaction with other
people. AJM has changed that by
creating the opportunity to be
connected with people at any time
and in any place. AIM provides a
freedom of communication that ls
good for everyday tallcing just to catch
up with friends. When I am talking to
someone, l can come and go as I
please, so when my mom yells at me
to clean up the dishes, I can just say
"brb" and my friends will continue
other conversations until I return.
It is also safe to talk on AIM because
you have total control over whom you
talk to. If you do not want to talk to
someone anymore, you can politely
say goodbye, but if you need to, you
can block them from knowing you are
ontine and keep you from knowing
they are online. That way, you choose
if and when to lnteract with them.
AlM is a new thing for many people
not in my generation. My 24-year-old
brother did not le.now what it was until
I introduced it to him. Now I see his
screen name on my buddy list almost
every time I log on. I even got my
parents to use it. They thin1c it Is great
because they can talk to both of my
brothers, one living in Los Angeles and
the other in Virginia. It ls an easy way
to have a brief conversation with them
and checlc up on how they are doing.
AIM may be new with our
generation. but it is not golng away.
Every day more and more people are
discovering its potential usefulness,
and are becoming almost as addicted
as I already am. Anyone with Internet
access can use AJM or other similar
programs. and they are free. All you
need to do is download them.
This program has changed lives. It
brings people together as if they were
right in the room with you. It
strengthens communication between
people, and is an easy way to talk 10
people if you are too scared to
confront them in person. It is great,
and everyone should try lt out. As my
mother likes to write at the end of her
messages, 'ttfn' ('Tu-Tu For Now'),
• SARA BRYANT is a Costa Mesa High
School student whose columns will
appear occasionally in the Forum section.

Bridge plan makes no
sense for Westside
Costa Mesa's taxpayers don't
need to spend $150,000 on an
economic study of the 19th Street
Bridge. Our history with the
Victoria Street Bridge provides
the reasons better than a study of
the hypothetical possibilities ever
will. Only about ~e north of
19th Street, the Victoria Bridge
project dislocated more than 80
families and demolished their
homes. The bridge brought
additional traffic, but very little
revitalization, to the Westside.
The Victoria Square shopping
center continues to struggle to fill
it.s storefronts.
In addition to displacing
families and adding traffic, a
bridge on 19th would cut right
through the Talbert Nature
Preserve. Our Oty Council
recently recognized Fairview Park
as a precious natural resource.
The lalben Nature Preserve
deserves the same regard. It is
one of our last remaining open
spa~ and it would be a crime
to destroy It
N. an active member of the
Community Redevelopment
Action Committee, I've listened
to this passionate and
opinionated group of activists. I
greatly respect their dedication
and persistence on improving the
Westside. One thing that strikes
me as interesting is that it seems
that the committee members
who favor loo.king Into the 19th
Street Bridge are a1so the ones
who complain that the Westside
Is the dumping ground for
Newport Beach and the rest of
Costa Meta (conceming the job
center:, charities and more). But
by building a bridge on 19th, the
Westside is again the dumping
ground for Newport's tmfllc
problems.
It bas been sugest.ed that the
recent call for an economic study
of the bridge would be the ftrst
test of how sedoully the City
C.Ouncll is~ to tab the
committees propoeals. But I feel
that if we want to be taken

F.stancia's Quiroga Campos and Javier
Millan scored their single goals after
Newport (0-1 l tied the F.agles (1 -0) at
1-1 and 2-2. respectively.
"I was happy wit.b the work ethic,"
said F.stancia Coach Steve Crenshaw.
"We kept coming back. right at 'em in
your face, which is what you've goua
do."
After Newport tied it, l ·I. on a Chase
Kelly goaJ with 37 minutes elapsed in
the first half, Campos took control of
the ball about 20 yards from the goal in
the middle of the field and booted the
ball into the upper-left com er of the net
to put the F.agles ahead, 2-1, at half-
time.
It would stay that way until the Sail-
ors' Jose Serpas took advantage of a
penalty kick after referees issued an Es-
tancia player a yeUow card with 24 min-
utes gone by in the second half. The
Eagle player committed the fo uJ within
the 18-yard box to gamer the penalty

Serpas kicked lbe ball into the upper
reaches of the net for the equalfaer, 2-2.
But the aforementioned Eagles' te-
nacity Crenshaw mentioned came to
fruition after Serpas' goal.

ther's footsteps as a high school
basketball coach. but his arrival
from Atlandc City, N.J., to coach
the C.Orona deJ Mar H.lgb girls

ant leap of fa.Ith.

lege, operated a restaurant in

then returned to New Jersey for a
year to coach basketball and
ttack and field. as well as sum-
mer hoops development pro-
grams and clinics.
Now, at 26, Barkalow has h.is
M opportunity."
And, what he inherits from
former head coach Elbert Davis
(now the boys coach at Westnlin-
ster) is eight returning lettermen
from last season's team, includ-
ing seniors Aryn Dimas, a 6-
footer, 5-11 Madison Otterbein,

McCoy, who ~ most of last

Coec::h: James Barkalow Ill
(first year)
will be counted on to score a lot
in 2002-.03. Bartalow hopes to
use Otterbein, who had four
double-figure scoring games last
season, as more of a slashing
player.
"She's unbelievably athletic.
She's probably the best athlete
on the team," Barkalow said of
Otterbein. "When she does
things, it just comes naturally."
McCoy, a first-team All-Pacific
C.Oast League selection her fresh -
man year in 1999-2000, has
come out late from golf, but Bar-
kalow expects her to eventually
work in the starting rotation, af-
ter starting the season sJowty to
let her knee respond properly.
Dimas will be asked to fill the
middle on defense and provide
timely scoring on offense when
the opportunities arise. •She
crashes the boards well and can
put it right back up," Bartalow
said. "The one-on-one thing is
not her strong point The best
thing is that she mews that She
"I knew it was going to be.a
physical game with Newport,"
Crenshaw said.
Estancia defeated Newport,
1-0, last season on its way to a 5-
13-1 campaign, while Newport is
coming off a 10-8-2 year, good
for second place in the Sea View
League. The Sailors Jost 4-0 to
Los Alamitos last season in the
quarterfinals of the CfF
Southern Section Division II
Playoffs.
Both coaches said their teams
performed strong in some areas
and weaker in others, but look
forward to the players overcom-
ing the mistakes with more
games to come.
"We were a bit ruscy," Hans-
ford said. "It's the first time see-
ing them play so we have to get
more understanding and some
continuity. But I was pleased
with the desire they showed."
