A failure to communicate

blamed on a lack
of communication.
Kris O'Donnell

0 nFebruary17, 1981, a
Boeing 737 crashed during
. landing at John Wayne
Airport. an accident ultimately
blamed on communication
enors..
The Air California aircraft era.sh
landed after touching down with
the landing gear retracted.
Flight 336 took off from San
Jose for a flight to Santa Ana
Forty-eight minutes later, the crew
received a clearance for a visual
approach to runway l 9R
However, while Flight 336
approached, the air traffic
controller cleared another flight,
Air c.alifomia Flight 931 that was
going back to San Jose. for a
takeoff on the same runway.
After recognizing the two
planeS would be too close
together. the controller ordered
Flight 336 to abon the landing
and go around again and the
other plane to abon the takeoff.
Flight 336 aboned and
returned, only to land with the
wheels retracted.
The 737 skidded 2,070 feet
before coming to rest Four
people sustained serious injury
and 29 people suffered minor
injuries, but no one was killed.
The official cause of the
acci.dent, according to the
National Transponation Safety
Board, was the captain's failure to
immediately initiate a go-around
when instructed to do so.
The safety board also believed
the controller waited too long to
advise the flight not to land.
"Aborting a landing under 250
feet can be accompl.ished safely.
but it is always a hazardous
procedure th.is dose to the
ground since the aircraft will
descend approximately 130
I morel feet even if the go-around
is executed perfectly." board
member F(Clilcis H. McAdams
said.
In the period between 1959 to
1994. errors involving flight crews
were the primary cause in the
majority of accidents, according
to the Flight Safety foundation.
However. llight·t:rew error has
declined as the LatLse of accidenlS
between 1984 to 1994.

open with her past, as she
moved on, and said she
encountered mental, verbal,
violent and sexual abuse.
~he tells her story without
tears or shame. She tells her
story of survi\ting the demons
that haunted her alcoholic
mother, who ·would whirl in
and out of her life: always
bringing a new forms of pain
and sorrow. Each time her
mother would come in and
swoop the girls up and take
them away, the grandparents
would frantically search for
them and brace for the calm of
the storm. When the mom
would leave, they would try to
offset the trauma but despite
their attempts at a normal life,
the family was always in hiding,
Reaves said, hoping the mother
would no t find them this t,ime.
Because they lived in fear,
the Nes family distance itself
from their Norwegian kin. And
when her grandparents qied,
following the deaths of both
her father and mother, Reaves
thought her only human
connection to those mysterious
pictures died as well. She kept
1he keepsakes and continued
with life. Reaves moved to the
beach, got married, had
children, fell in love with life
and moved on. Every so often
she would sift through the

Straub and Fabreque ane members

Assn .. located in Tus tin.
·There are weU over 200 members
who actively participate in the
association's meetings: Straub said.
"We produce thousands of handmade
toys that we distribute to needy kids
in Orange County. We'll probably
turnout 3,600 pieces for the
Cluistmas Toy Program."
The Association was formed in 1981
with the intent of promoting the skilJ
of woodworking and to encourage all
woodworkers ln the pursuit of
excellence, technical facility, and
safety.'
Toy cars, bowls and cups are some of the items on display at the Orange
County Woodworking Association booth at the fair on Wednesday.
"Properly sharpened tools are a
prerequisite," Straub said, for the
hand-cut dovetailed joints he

~Almost all the pieces are
handmade and nearly any have as

as so well-fitted together as to not
require any," Straub continued.
Straub. who has been a professional
woodworker all his said he can't get
enough time to do all the projects
that come his way.
·1 just don't have the room. All
woodworkers dream of the perfect
workshop. You know, the o ne with
enough room to store all those tools
you purchased over the years, or that
can hold all the wood you have
accumulated."
·The truth Is there Is never enough
room and you will never be quite
satisfied with your workshop so get
used to it."
Straub seem like one of those guys
who has sawdust In his blood.

Job Center's cost-
.. .. .. .
should not rest on
Costa Mesa alone
C osta Mesa's Job Center
was created to.serve a
purpose: to keep day
laborers off the city's
streets and out of the
parks. It succeeded and continues
to.
But there are still residents in
the community who have
problems with the center that
need addressing.
On Monday, the City Council,
per Councilman Allan Mansoor's
request, considered whether it
should limit the day laborers to
O>Sta Mesa residents. In a 3-2
vote, the council decided to
continue to accept residents of all
cities.
If the City Council had opted to
require residency. those from other
cities would congregate in those
streets and parks and, in tiJ.m,
defeat the purpose of the Job
Center.
Mayor Gary Monahan, who with
Mansoor was on the losing end of
that vote, suggested that the city
work harder to ensure that the Job
Center be self-supporting. That.
too. hasnt gone his way.
It seems this is something at
which the city can succeed.
In March, city staffers found that
37% of the day laborers and 49%
of the employers come from
outside Costa Mesa. The city
already charges nonresident
dayworkers a higher fee to use the
Job Center. The same could be
done with the employers.
However, O>Sta Mesa can really
be compensated if it determines
the cities of residence of those day
laborers and employers. In doing
so, the city can look to those cities
to ante up.
Some cities, such as Laguna
Beach, have locations designated
as job centers. Others do not. yet
they have residents who either
need work or need to hire help.
Residents of Newport Beach,
which doesn~ have a job center,
account for 31 % of'the employer
base that uses the C:OSta Mesa Job
Center. Since employers account
for half of the center's users,
perhaps Newport can pay Costa
Mesa 15.5% of the center's
operating costs.
Neighboring Huntington Beach,
meanwhile, can pay about 3% for
its employers.
The cities should also pay the
percentage that corresponds to the
number of residents who use the
center.
In other words, Costa Mesa is
relieving more than its own
bwtlen. The other cities without
job centers can also do their part.
Otherwise, they should build
their own job centers or Costa
Mesa will eventually decide not to
allow nonresidents -employers
or employees -to use the center.
As often as the Job Center has
ended up on the Costa Mesa City
Council agenda, it wouldn~ be too
surprising if this is the outcome at
some point
Finally, a welcotpe
for Santa Ana Heights
Y ou may not be able to go
home again, but as
residents of Santa Ana
Heights discovered this
month, if you wait long ~nough, a
new home might come to you.
After decades and decades of
waiting. lobbying ahd waiting
some more, Santa Ana Heights.
along with Bay KnoH.s and nine
homes known as the Emerson
1Iact. officially became part of
Newport Beach on July 1. With the
change of address, the city's 1,250
new residents should find, comes
more than just the cachet of being
in Newport
There will be more street
sweeping. Residents will have an
easier commute to deal with
pennits and other municipal
business ijust a swing past the
Back Bay to Newport Beach City
Hall instead of over to Santa Ana).
They will enjoy Newport police
service to go along with the fire
service that has been provided for
years. ~
As dty officials say: Not much
will change. but what does will be
for the better.
The most important carry-over:
Santa Ana Heights will still be all
about horses. Newport Beach
officials have no plans to alter the
area's unusual zoning that allows
for stables and horse trails. And
given that Newport is a city full of
communities -Corona del Mar,
Balboa Island, the peninsula. West
Newpon. to name a few notable
ones -there is no reason to
doubt that the horses will be
around for the long ride. The city
knows how to maintain the
neighborhood feel
Those communities, no doubt.
contribute much to the character
and culture of Newport Beach.
They give the city a bigger feel:
Like New York's boroughs,
Newport isn't just the sum of one
part. But they also keep it feeling
smaller, as a collection of
neighborhoods that residents can
embrace as their own.
Santa Ana Heights will add
nicely to that mix, at the least as a
counter-balance to the harbor. It
should be a happy, lasting
marriage.
Now, next on the list western
Santa Ana Heights and homes
near Mesa Drive.

COMMUNITY COMMENTARY
Immigration issue needs practicality
Fund-raisers need to find
another way to raise money
The sale of fireworks and the use of
fireworks should be banned from the
city of Costa Mesa Are we waiting for
a major catastrophe? Do more
accident's like Adalelde Thlel's have to
ha.ppen before this city realizes the
extreme danger of legal and iUegaJ
fireworks?
My quiet, peaceful Eastside
neighbor has sounded and looked like
a war zone most of the month of July.
Not only do we hear constant
fireworks from individuals but we bear
them from the Newport Dunes, the
celebration of the amphitheater
opening and other venues nearby.
Debris from fireworks can be found on
your lawns, streets and sldewalb.
Animals, children and even adults
cringe in fright, covering ears barely
dulls the sound ..
I have lived in the Newport· Mesa
area for more than 50 years and spent
many years u a leader In youtb and
adult ,organizadons th~t depe'tm on
fund-raising to exist. We all know there
are numerous ways to do so; perba.p• a
city ad hoc commluee could be
formed of profeaJonal or experienced
fund raiaen who could adviM othen.

Councilman Chris
Steel wants to let
everyone knows
what's on his mind.
C osta Mesa City •
Councilman Olris Steel
has attracted criticism
over his almost
three-year term for
wanting to eliminate illegal
immigrants, nonprofits and the
Costa Mesa Job Center from the city.
Steel ran for Oty Council 10 times
before winning in November 2000.
The Job Center consistently
comes up at Oty Council meetings
and last came up on Monday.
Councilman Allan Mansoor
suggested that the center be limited
to Costa Mesa residents, but a 3·2
vote shut that idea down. Steel was
among the majority on that
decision.
On Thursday, City Editor James
Meler talked with Steel about the
Job Center, fireworks and other
issues on the councilman's mind.
I'm a very tolerant person. bu1 what
I'm intolerant about are the unintended

was the first in th& water and
on the first cast hooked a small

nice perch while Decker's

Gothia Cup in Gothenburg. Sweden.
one of the world's largest youth soc-
cer tournaments with nearly 1,400
te-dJT\S £rum 55 nations participating,
Teams normally would not travel
abroad so close to the national
championships. qut it was an invita-
tion that the Slammers said they
could not decline. Prior to their vie·
torious run al the Far West regional
in Honolulu last month, they had
won the Manchester United Premier
Cup in May. That earned them a trip
to the Gothia Cup sponsored by
Nike. and the team left Southern
California for Sweden on July 12..
They arrived in Maryland on Sunday
and don't expect to go home until af.
ter today's national championship fi.
nal at 8 am.
HI give these girls a lot of l.nxlit. •
Slammers coach Walid Khoury said.
HThey are handling it pretty well.
This has been a long trip already, but
it was a lifetime opportunity and we
took advantage of ii."
The Slammers know they are fac·
ing stiffer competition this week
than they did in Sweden. In eight
games. they did not allow a goal
while scoring 52. defeating Tillberga
IK of St.veclen. 2-0, in the champion-
ship game. While th.e soccer Wa.sn't
