Anything you've seen and

Those who knew Aria beat
have a bard lime dacribtng her.
All they know ta they1I do
whatever it tabs to get.her beck.
Sbewaa only 10. If the canc:er
that repeatedly ravaged her
body had let her live one mme
month. &he wouldw been 11 .
Arla was diagnosed with
leukemia when she was 3.
Doctors, at the time. belleYed
that she bad the cwable kind of
cancer. But nothing went as
planned. She would undergo
chemotherapy and be fine for
months or even a year and then
she'd go into remission.
In May 2000, she had a bone
marrow transplant. Her brother.
Jordan, turned out to be the
perfect match. The transplant
was successful But the hope
was all dried up in six months.
The cancer came back. In March
200 l, Aria went through a risky
second bone marrow transplant
And again. it was succesaful.
The 2~ years that followed
were the best of her life. Her
long. curly, lustrous, brown hair,
which Aria absolutely loved,
grew out. She went to school in
Tarrytown, N.Y., where her
family then lived, and then in
Kaiser Elementary School in
Costa Mesa
She danced. She played with
her cousins, twin girls, which
was her favorite thing in the
world. The girls dressed up,
sand, danced, drew, played with
dolls and went shopping for
clothes.
But in August 2003, cancer
deaJt her another blow. And this
time it struck harder than ever.
She went into remission several
times. In January, she almost
died of fungal pneumonia
For all her suffering. Aria
continued to live her life. She
laughed and she cried She
expressed anger when she felt it
But Aria wanted to live more
than anything else.

Aria Lams
She always talked about her
future. She would talk about It
as if she was going to be there.
It was her dream to be the
host of a cooking show for Jcids.
Emeril and Iron Olef on the
Food Network were some of her
favorite programs on television.
Aria was also shaping up into
quite a chef. She made
bruschetta. She made up Aria
Roll, her version of the
California sushi roll with
artichoke hearts, Spike
seasoning. sprouts and
cucumber. Another one of her
original recipes was Boom
Clliclcen, a baked chicken dish
with spicy curry sauce and
honey.
Aria loved animals. She
adopted a cat that she named
Squeakers. The cat kind of
squeaked when she meowed.
Aria was even taking
horse-riding lessons. but had to
stop because of her health.
She liked to watch her
brother, Jordan, as he played
video games. She could sit on
the bed and watch him for
hours.
Jordan always turned around
to catch her reaction when they
were watching a funny movie or
cartoon together. She had such a

take his eyes 011 her until she
stopped laughlng.
They had a special
relationship. Aria's suffering
deepened their bond. Jordan
liked to kiss her on the cheek.
He liked to do that because no
matter how the rest of her body
looked after the treatments, her
face was always full Her chee~
were big. soft and cold and
when he kissed them. she
pushed him away. kicking up an
affectionate fuss.
Aria also liked to watch Jordan
ny his remote-controlled
airplanes. The last plane Jordan
made. he dedicated to Aria. He
wrote a lener on the plane's
wings telling her how much he
loves her and wants her back.
Ufe wasn't normal to see his
sister in pain. But Jordan would
rather have that hellish
existence than one where he
doesn't have a little sister.
Aria's other love was school
She teleconferenced with her
class when she was stuck in the
hospital. And when she went
back to school in spring. she
plugged right in. She had no
problems adapting or getting
used to anything. Science was
her favorite subject.

·Habitat project is
I
right fit for area
A 1es&ul learned eady and
often when foDowing the
goings-on in local
gcYel'DDl(!flt ls that there
u.5llal1y are multiple
sides to every issue No debate is
clear-<.-ut. Maneuvering througb the
issues is nuanced. as no one ewr-has
a monopoly on the truth. No side is
entirely right None is entirely wrong.
There are always exl:eptlons. of
course And we are having a difficult
time finding the debate about a
low-income Habitat for Humanity
project behind H.arl>or Centef" to be
anything other than one-sided. We
cannot help hut believe the residents
opposing the proposal for eight
homes are wrong.
Such a statement is not one we
make lightly. We understand why
people have concerns about the
quality of their neighborhoods and
their homes. But the arguments In
this case fail to stand up to reason.
The project calls for five
single-story and three two-story
homes. each with two-car garages
and individual driveways. It would
involve a general-plan amendment
changing the land-use designations
from commetcial and high-density
residential to low-density residential
What is there now is an empty lot
that serves as a buffer of sorts
between the shopping center and
neighboring C.OUege Pad.
Residents claim that at eight
homes. the project has too many
houses. But right next to the site is an
apartment complex that is certainly
large enough that eight homes
wouldn't make a noticeable difference
in traffic or paJting.
Tilat residents say sbt homes would
be OK also is befuddling. How can
such a small reduction be
meaningful? C.Ould it be because at
sbt homes the project would not be
economically sound, according to
Scon Bell, president of JO
Development. which owns the
properties and would donate them to
the nonprofit group?
Their arguments about how dire
parldng would beoome are sbnilmly
unbelievable. Might there be a
parking problem in the areal
c.ertainJy. And we hope the dty and
residents can work on a aoludoo. But
would eight homes reaDy push the
problem beyond a tenable leYel'l It ls
difficult to believe.
We also are skeptical that Habibd
homes would reduce neighboring
properfy values. Anyone who has
seen Habitat projects knows how
exceHent they are and that the group
extensively checks into the people
moving into the homes. There are few
nonprofits that enjoy the respect and
admiration that Habitat for Humanity
does.
~re even skeptical of city staff
members' contention that the project
is a bad fit because there would be
too much noise from the backside of
Harbor Center. A major road would
be louder, more often, for instance.
And the relatively unappealing nature
of the site is obYiously part of why it is
a possible location for low-cost
housing. As P!anning Commissioner
OuUrman Bruce Garlich argued. the
decision on whether it is a good place
for Habitat homes should lie with
Habitat of.lidals and the eventual
homeowners.
Setting all the arguments aside, we
are concerned that an unsaid worry is
left: Habitat for Humanity serves
people on the low end of the
economic scale. We hope that the
opposition ta this project is not
battling to keep poor families from
moving into the nei.ghborhood.
Tuking this side, of course, lumps
us in with the majority of tho6e
supporting Habitat's cause -we
aren~ C.Ollege Pad residents. And.
again. we don' lightly-or with any
pleasure -back a plan that
neighbors are against
But the facts seem to be that the
project serves a need in an area
where it would fit
Fields need more
than just mowing
--~
G rass and dirt is sometimes
more than meets the eye.
As we've seen recently in
Costa Mesa. upkeep -or
the lack of it -of sports fields can
mean the difference between a
perception of equality and
discrimination.
Thar's why it's good to see the
Newport-Mesa Unified School
District and city oflicials begin to look
for ways to brtter maintain the ball
fields in Costa Mesa .
District and city officials' talk of a
commit1ee that would deal directly
with deteriorating fields at Costa
Mesa and Estancia high schools is a
hopefuf sign. They are also talking
about improving lines of
commwlica!ioo berMerl schools and
the distrlct. Safety hazards and
cosmedc field issues are being tended
to. We hope to see the dialogue. and

We only wonder why ii had to
come to this.
We join, perhaps belart'dly, the
lament of local coaches. residents and
students In what has been a building
refrain: that the lad o( maintenance
of local fields, unwittingly or
otherwise. has at the very least led to
an image of inequality between the
closely manicured lawns of Newport's
public school ball fields and the
patchy, shoddy surfaces of Costa
M"Sa's.
Througtt a joint-use agreement
with the district. the city maintains
the fields, but critics dahn that the
agreement is a.s shoddy as the fields
-leading to a lack of defined
responsibilities for the lawns, sniping
between coaches and city o~
and complaints of ruts, holes and
safety ha7Ank
Ultimately, it took a concerned
parent to clahn last month that the
neglect of the languishing fields
discriminates against llCbools in Costa
Mesa that have predominately Latino
student populations. District offidaJs
have denJed claims of discriminadon..
Why did it take a dhcrimlnation
complaint to the US Department of
Educadoo:. Office of Clvil IUghts to
shine the light on this problem?
The ~ nee<.b to st.ep up and
lead an effort to draw dear lines of
respomibOity and collUDUllkadon for
field upkeep while ensuring that
malnt.enance b on par with &elds in

WATCHDOG
Late-night decision by Costa Mesa
City Council could have waited
By Geoff West
0 nee again, the City Council
bit off more than it could
chew, and once again, it
resulted in the exercise of some
pretty poor judgment.
At the City Council meeting,
which began Sept. 7 and ended
Sept. 8, the "leadership" chose to
juggle the agenda and place
extremely important issues at the
end of the meeting.
That decision meant a
discussion regarding the
configuration of the beleaguered
legal department did not begin
until midnight. By that time, what
was a standing-room-only crowd
five hours earlier had dwindled to a
few die-hards at the end, so the
decision on this critical issue was
made in a "public forum" in name
only. This issue was not
time-sensitive, so it could have
been deferred to a later meeting,
when a larger cross-section of the
public could have had a chance to
make their voices heard.
Sadly, Mayor Gary Monahan
chose to plow ahead. So, at 12:50
a.m., Sept. 8 -after almost an
hour of debate -the council voted
3-2 to disband the in-house legal
department and to begin
negotiations with outside firms to
contract these services. Mike
Scheafer was the swing vote. with
Allan M.ansoor and Ouis Steel
voting no.
I'm not saying this may not have
been the right decision. As even
the most casual observer of city
matters over the past couple of
years can tell you, the city has been
embroiled in one costly legal issue
after another -including a lawsuit
by our own city attorney.
Oearly, time was ripe for change
and the two-member
subcommittee assigned to study
this issue -Mayor Monahan and
C.Ouncilwoman Ubby Cowan -
spearheaded the charge. It's
curious that these two members,
larne-ducb, chose to make this
change as they head off into the
sunset
Cowan chose not to run again
this [aJJ and Monahan will soon
begin bis last two years of what will
probably be a doun in office. It's
also curious that they were
reportedly among those listed in
MAILBAG
playing time.
The lack of recreational
opportunities lo Costa Mesa Ls
shameful. It Ls a dJ.rect result of people
such aa Lavigne and McGhee. I live
near Del Mesa Park and, by golly, you
can build any type of field or abte
park you like there. I want the 1e>und
of cb.Udren playing In my
neighborhood. It beata the eou.nd of
the door clanging shut at juvmDe ball
any day.

the lawsuit by former City Atty.
Jerry Scheer. Tu further compound
thls display of poor judgment. the
council began deliberating changes
to the appeals process at l a.m. -
another issue that could have
easily been deferred to a future
meedng.
This apparently nearly drove one
of the few observers remaining,
former mayor Sandra Genis, to
tears and had her quoting
Abraham Uncoln near the end.
Actions like these are the reason

for Qty Council this time around
By delaying important issues until
the wee hours In the morning, the
council effectively stiOed most
anticipated disagreement by the
public.
The proverbial smoke-filled
room the Brown Act wu designed
to forestall was replaced by a
sleep-deprived decision-making
process early that Wednesday
morning. Tu paraphrase Genis u

issue, shame on them.

A skate part is an Important thing in
every city. Our local cities are way
behind many others in the nation, and
we are the hotbed of skateboarding, and
more professional quality skateboards
are manufactured in C.osca Mesa than
any other city in the USA. That fact
makes the whole issue of being years
behind the rest of the nation that much
more ironic. Newport Beach needs a
skate part too, but Costa Mesa just
reacted quicker, so ~'ve foDowed

biggest reason it's truly tmportant is that
there are thousands of kids who love to

do it locally and legally. Society should
suppon positive recreation

realty bad to raise children who love
somedUng as much as most
skaleboardef'S do, and then just ignore
them. and tell them they can't do it

Socially. we need to give the youth a
reason to respect government, and
being chased out of everywhere they go
for doing something that is inherently a
positive thing is no way to educate kids
to respect government Costa Mesa's
recreation master plan now suppons
th.is in writing. so it's 00( really ewn a
question of if it's needed anymore. I
grew up playing Little League baseball
for many years. bur once I picked up a
skateboard, I didn't have any interest in
most other sports any more. so over 30
years later I can relate to how and why
many of the skaters just feel ignored.

A year eerller. Corona deJ Mar
had stuffed the Sailors. 23-0, and
every senior on the team of
destiny still had dirt in the creases.
"It was an unreal rivalry." said
Johns. "McDonough knew all their
guys.
"They were bigger and said to
be stronger. and they came with
their faces painted black and their
Uerseysl cut short."
It was one of the series' classics..
The Sailors, who had fumbled
four times. losing possession
twice. over a span of their
previous four games, fumbled six
umes. lost ~on five times
and were Intercepted once.
One of the fumbles was on the
Newport 10 and CdM cashed in
with a 4-yard touchdown run by
J.J. Dicesare in the first quarter.
John Giordanl's 8-yacd run in
the sa·ond quarter, and Pardy's

I was on the Newpon Harbor
1,1deline late in the fourth quarter
when Corona del Mar's Josh Walz.
un third-and-12 at the CdM 37,
pulled off one of the gJeat
quarterbaclc scrambles in the
tm.tory of the Banle of the Bay,
da5hing 39 yards to the Hart>or24.
There was snll 1 :59 left and
CdM continued the march.
I had moved downfield and
around behind the goalposts
where I was joined by CdM
boosters president John Walz as
we anticipated a field-goal
attempt I wanted the best angle if
the Icicle was to threaten the
uprigjlts.

one of OCCs six second-hall
poueulons lasted longer than
four plays. The first four were all
tbree·and-out
The second-half futility might
have been summed up best by
one play in OCCs most promis·
Ing possession midway through
the final quarter.
On third-and-five from the
Santa Ana 28. OCC sophomore
quarterback Kyle Basanez deliv-
ered a perfect pass to the comer
of the end zone, just before be·
ing decked by a pass rusher. Re-
ceiver Brian Johnson was be-
hind his man and got both
handS on the ball, before drop·
ping the sure touchdown and
setting up a fourth-down in·
completion.
Basanez. who. for the first
time all season, was .not sacked,
threw for 145 yards and rushed
for 46 more. He drew praise
from Coach Mike Tuytor as a
bright spot for the visitors.
Another hJghllght was fresh-
man tailback Matt Downs rush-
.ing for 80 of his 89 yards before
int«misslon. Included in his
first-half success was a 26-yard
ID jaunt set up by Johnson's key
downfteld block. The touch-
down. along with Adam Kleclcn-
er's conversion kick. pulled the
visitors even heading Into half-
time.
But Downs, who sat out the
second half in a Week 4 loss at
Fullenon due to fatigue,
watched the third quarter from
the sideline and carried Just
twice in the fourth quarter.
"I said to [Downs) at halftime,
Great half. How do you feet?'

lta.rted, he waan't in the pme. •
Santa Ana had no such ahon-
age In (ti backfteld, u Newport
Harbor High product Dartanpn
Johmon rolled for 132 yuda and
one touchdown on 25 carries.
Johnson. the Sailors' all·dme
rushing leader wlth 3,397 yuda
as a prep, came In u the Jeadtng
growid gainer in the Mission
Conference and now has 719
ruahlng yards this season.
Santa Ana Coach Geoff Jones
said Johnson, as well as the rest
of the Dons, were motivated to
play well against OCC after last
year's setback. Johnson had Just
66 yards on 20 attempts against
Orange Coast as a freshman.
"Obviously Dartangan was a
little lathered up today," Jones
said.
Santa Ana quarterback Daniel
Morales also helped the Dons
produce 524 yards of total of-
fense. The freshman rushed for
75 yards on six carries and com-
pleted 10of13 pus attempts for
164 yards and one TD. His 40-
yard touchdown on an option
keeper with 1 :48 left in the third
quarter helped widen the Dons'
cushion to 24-14.
Morales found Jamin Shepard
.wide open for an easy 29-yard
TD toss to all but seal the win
with 8:27 left in the game.
Ryan Davis and Ricky Miller
had sacks for the OCC defense,
while freshman punter Brian
Campos had his best day as a
Bue. Campos averaged 45.4
yards on five punts, including a
65-yarder.
Among the disappointments
for OCC was a failed fake on a
would-be 24-yard field -goal try
midway through the second
quarter. On fourth-and-goal
from the 7, OCC holder Olad
Schmigel attempted a shovel
pass to a wing bloclcer that was
broken up by a defender.
