The purpose of the day is to remember loved ones who have died For some, this celebration actually continues for a few days. There are meals. trips to the cemetery and m~ importantly. many moments of reflection. The roots of the Day of the Dead are in pre-conquest Mexico The celebration has groo.yn and evolved for hundreds of years, mixing elements of Catholicism and pre-Columbian tradition, to become widely celebrated in the Latino world.

Young and old One fampy's traditon P aty Madueno has been looking furwanl to D£a ck los Muen:os this year. The Costa Mesa community leader celebrates the occasion every year with her fanuly, but this one is especially poignant for P'aty. A year has passed since her father died. losing a long battle with cancer. On the altar in the Madueno family home. remem· brances will be ~ up for her father, Oscar Larriva. who Madueno says enjoyed a good jolce more than anything. "He used to tell my mother. 'You know you're married to a very important man. You're no1 an actress, but you've got an Oscar,"" Madueno remembers. Pictwes of her father will sit on the altarcilo, ttanslared as "bttle altar," aside pictures of the mother of her husband, Leo. and the family's grandparents. The altar will also have images or d.iJferent saints. the VJIEM ~ Gulldalupe and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. all reminders of the familys Catholic faith and dedk:ation to prayer. The ofrmdas. or offers. for P'aty Madueno's father will include two cigarettes -because he IOYed to smoke - a nice piece of steak and, of course. a glass of beer. Paty Madueno appreciates the mix of the day's emotions. an aspect of the celebration th.at bas been around since its birth In the Aziec and Mayan culwres. "We ha~ great~ for the dead; we laugh with the dead. There are picnics at the cemetel'y where people laugh and cry. There are guitars; people sing; we celebrate.. Paty Madueno sa1d.

P'aty Madueno remembers her father every time she thin.ks of a Day of the Dead j>oem about la muerte, death. The poem trans- lates as "I laugh about death because he doesn't do anything to me." P'aty Madueno said her father lived his life this way, until he was actually getting dose to slipping way. During that difficult time. P'aty Madueno comforted him. reminding him of the lesson he had taught her as a child. She spent a lot of time with her father in those final days. lhe last four years of his life. l knew him better than any time." Paty Madueno said She intends to pass, these memories on to her 7-year-old granddaughter, Melania. who will help celebrate the day with her family this year. "Yk do these traditions to remind the kids where they came from,• P'aty Madueno said. "It's really good to know where you come from, so it will influence where you are going." • The young in the Madueno house. such as Mdania. will help build the altar with their older relatives, who will recount stories for Jhem about the family memben; that have died. "The memory of who these people were, we pass on,• Paty Madueno said. "And at the same time we laugh about some memories, we ay because we miss them." ~ ·~ ~ • • G1 An offering for loved ones A n important part of the Day of the Dead celebration is the altar. The memorial honors family memben; or friends that have passed. It is meant to remind the living of all the things that made their loved ones special The faithful believe the altars will hetp spirits who are traveling from the other side by providing them with things they loved tn life.

First Imagined a. a 28-mlle alternative to the county's jam-packed freeways 10 years ago. CenterUne eventually became an Idea 11 miles long. But even that was too lengthy for Irvine residents, who earlier this year voted against having it run through their town. After that rejection. the Orange County 'Ihmsportation Authority decided to go with an 8.5-mile route from the transportation depot ln Santa Ana. through the South Coast Metro area to John Wayne Airport. The cost of this shortened route ls less than SI billion, or less than half the ortgl.nal eost. 1n other words, there does not seem to be overwhelming support for th1s plan. And that Ls why the latest twist involving the rail golng underground by Soud1 Coast Plau is especially troubling. This plan. belng pushed by Costa Mesa city leaders. would force the ~oval of the Lakes Pavilion business center. home to four businesses -Avo's Bistro, Ocean Park Oeaners. Digital Hearing 'Thchnology and the Comer Office. That Is stgniflcant news that raises a crldcaJ question: Is CenterUne worth the removal of four businesses? We've supported the CenterUne idea ln the past: •eosta Mesa made the right choice ln volunteering to be a stop along the line," we wrote two years ago. •its leaders are on the right track when It comes to the area's transportation woes and know it's best to start sooner than later.• llult track appears all but run out at this point Its usefulnes.1 to the county at 8.5 miles is questionable. Others ways to spel111 the $1 billion -on better buses, for one -are being discussed. In that environment. again this question: ls CenterUne worth the removal of four businesses? There will be a public hearing on Nov. 24 for property owners, business owners and others to comment on the project. Proponents and opponents of the plan should make that meeting mandatory and work to answer that question and one more general: ls CenterUne the best solution to the county's transportation problems? When the transportation authority's board of directors votes on the final route in December, after completion of an environmental report still golng through a public comment period, members should be certain they have answered those questions. as well. The right codes, the right place A s wildfires ravnge Southern CaJlfomla, we are paJnfully reminded of the damage fires can do. We are reminded that fire prevention is not a nuisance. but a lifesaver. And so the decision of the Newport Beach City Council 10 begin entorcemenl of fire codes in the harbor is not only wise but crucial. Such codes are pul in place not to be a hindrance to businesses, but to prolect and save Uves. 'Ihe codes require that. In case of fitt, all boats should be able to be moved quickly and without having to move other boats out of their way first There are boats bl violation of that law at more than half the commercial docks In the lwbor. The codes have not been enforced tor eo long that rnany busln are depeodent on tbciee lDegal berthing practices for their IW'Vival. And therein lia the dilemma. No one wants to eee these bw1lnea.'M!I auff er, but the possible consequence of Ignoring fire codes is unthlnk.able. Perhaps that Is why the plan came from their own. It is the Harbor Commission's plan that the council approved. 'Ibat plan is to give businesses violating the fire codes notice that they have six months to come up with a plan to correct the problem. In some cases. this will mean reconstn.lcting or reconfiguring their docks. But this gives business owners a chance to adapt. Once the dty approves the plan, the buslnea owner will have another six months to implement iL The city ts belng more than falr.

We mitigate the risks, with lnlurance, building and fire codes, wlld land abatement programs, and flood control Channels. Every person wants a pri4tine environment, but lt takes balance. The environmental extremlam view that Jan Vandersloot pushes forward leads to unreuonable rtab.

Now, Vandersloot would Ii.Jee to protect the nesting and feeding area for the least Bell's vireo, an endangered bird, at the expense of clean beaches and the danger of dangerous flooding. This clog in the river at Adams Avenue Is a snag that catches debris and sediment that washes down the watershed. The sediment. or urban runoff, bullds up in the river until It block.a the channel or explodes out into the ocean when a large winter storm hits. The Army Corps of Engineers and the country ls trying to take the corrective steps necessary to prevent" flooding and control the debris that will end up on the beach. They do this by maintaining the flood control channels. The Santa Ana RJver Is lined with concrete from the Coast Highway Bridge to the Arrowhead Pond in Anaheim. Most of OrfOlge County, and large secdons of Riverside and San Bernardino counties, rely on this channel to effectively evacuate rainwaters during storms. In the event flooding takes place, not only does It jeopa.rdize lives, but sends sewage and various contaminants into the river and Into the ocean. It is interesting how Vandersloot interjects himself and his group of the Clay, such as the Ocean Out Fall Group, into various improvement MAILBAG projects that have been planned tor yean, only to cause conf'u.alon and delay. The next thing you ,know, bis aave-the·Balboa·ftCUJ·tree group, which delayed another well-planned project, will want to plant ficus trees in the river bottom.

We live in Newport Beach to be near clean beaches, enjoy views of the Paclf1c and enjoy ,the harbor. We live in Newport Beach to be safe. Tbe residents here generally care about the environment and want the city and county to take reuonable steps to protect It. However, we do not live here to look at overgrown trees that bloclc views or to have unruly Ocus trees tear apan our plumbing. And we certainly do not expect to jeopardize public safety and the potential contaminadon of the ocean and harbor over a vocal group's unreasonable concerns. To quote Vandersloot, "I don't understand why they have to have such a huge concrete capacity in the Santa Ana River as It goes through Orange County and why they can't do things like create a soft river bottom so that water bas a chance to seep lnto the river.• That's right you do not understand. So until you understand, maybe you and your over vocal activist groups should take a seat. The river Is lined from the Orange Crush down to the ocean to keep urban runoff from seeping into the Miter table and to maintain the flow of storm runoff during large winter-storms.

BRENT JACOBSEN Newport Beach What's Newport's stake in a bridge? A bridge over the Santa Ana River at 19th Street Is not an luue for Newport ~ch · because it goes directly into Go•ta Mesa a.nd Huntington Beach. The city of Newport Beech 1hould have absolutely no say in this matter as very few of Its residents are affected • · compared with Costa Mesa and Huntington Beach. Victoria StJeet almost never hu any significant traffic on lt - I can easUy get where I need to go with no wait with the only excepdon peing in the mornlng around 7:30 to 8 a.m. and I must use Victoria betweep the Costa Mesa Freeway and Huntington Beach daily. The rest of the day, traffic is fairly light. I see absolutely no reason to create a bridge at 19th Street, which will significantly and negatively lmpact nearby residential neighborhoods, wlldllfe in the protected areas and the environment. Since Costa Mesa is interested in revitalization of that area, the city of Costa Mesa should vehemently oppose any bridge in that location, as well as oppose any Involvement of Newport Beach, upon whom the existence or non-existence of a bridge will have little relative impact.

"You want to play a team that stretches you and they stretched us," UCI Coach Pat Douglass said of the collection of former college players. who sank 9 of 13 first-half three- pointers and led, 47-38, at intennis- sion. The visitors bit another three ball to open the second half, spurring a 7-2 run, before the Anteaters began their long climb back. But UCI, paced by SQpho- more Mike Plevberha. who scored 23 of His game-high 28 points in the second half. pulled eveo at 63, then again at 72, before taking Its first lead. 74-72, on a Greg Ethington fol- low dunk with 7:57 left. The two teams then traded leads before Efevberha.. a 6-foot-5 swing- man who averaged 5.0 points as a freshman with a high game of 17, fin- ished the visitors off by scoring UCI's final nine polnt.s in the last 88 sec- onds. Plevberba drove the lane for a bucket to give UCI an 87-86 lead with l :28 remalnlng. then answered an EA Sports putback with a three-point play. on which he backed into the Jane and sank an eight-foot fallaway jumper while being fouled. "Mike Is pretty tough to guard when he gets [in deep)," Douglass saJd. "We went to him ldown the stretch). He was impressive."

Steve Vlr1en Daily Pilot IUVINE -After losing. 35-7, to Pacific Coast League favorite Northwood High. Corona del Mar football coach Dick Freeman was concerned with what he said was the turning point of the game. 1 le also appeared to be just as Interested In what figures to be the turnlng point of the season for CdM. Saturday night's PCL banJe for first place at lrvlne High was tough for the Sea Kings, as they lost their top running baclc, Wess Presson, to a leg injury. The Sltuauon is not any easier for them as they wiU face Tesoro on a short week on Friday. CdM was supposed to play Northwood Thursday, but be- cause of the poor air quality due to the Southland fires, the game was rescheduled to Saturday night. "We're really going 10 find out what we're made of next week." Freeman said. CdM N'wood What the Sea Kings came to reali7,e against the Tunberwolves (7-l, 3-0 ln league), ranked No. 3 in CIF Southern Section Division lX, was rather hum- bling. "We're just not as physical as North- wood." said Freeman. who mendoned his team took an emotional hit when Presson went down after his first carry of the game, mjdway through the first 7 35 quarter. HWhen Presson went down, it definitely put a dent in things. It's possible his leg Is broken. It's tough when you lose a starting running back. H Without Presson. the Sea Kings tried to attaclc North· wood through the air, and CdM runnjng back Austm Brawner also had a few key gains. But, with frequent blitzes and stunts. the run berwolves' defense continuously tumed away the Sea ICillg$ (5-3, 2-1). "Our offensive Une was the tumlng point and they set the tone on that fir..t drive of the game," said Northwood Coach Rlck Curtis, who added the vic- tory was a bit of revenge.
