The city alredCly has spent dbout -JACKIE GILLIS $30,000 on a study that suggests traffic has changed little in recent years, despite the percep- tion of residents. Some motorists use the neigh- borhood as an alterna te route to the Costa Mesa rreeway to a void congestion on Newport Boule- vard , making the area south of 17th Street between Irvine Avenue a nd Mesa Dnve a traffic and safety nightmare. For about a year, d seven- member committee mdclc up of residents in the area hds been I ~ludying how lo pul a stop to the problems. But the y 10s1st any recommendal!ons they subnul to the City Council will be bast>d on community input. The devices would be mstaUed on a 12- month trial basis and could be removed easily iI the plan d oesn't work, Butler said. Its progress would be evaluated at the end of the trial period to see if a reduction in traffic had resulted. Still, despite e fforts to resolve the situation, some neighbors are taking sides in what has become d war between residents living on 19th Street and others living on nearby streets, committee mE>mbers said. Neighbors are concerned that traffic diverted from 19th Street will spill onto smaller streets like Flower and Broadway. And, they worry it might affect property values and safety.

JUNE 2. 1997 LOBDELL CONTINUED FROM 1 He even looked the part of the young real estate Turk: crisp white shirts, gray suits, conserva- tive bes, short hair, handsome, boyish looks. Nelson bad a knack for the busmess, closing deal after deal after deal. All of which gave him pause. • J d ecided there were two ways of thinking about my suc- cess," said the soft-spoken Nel- son, 35. "I could think that it's all me, that I'm pretty special, which would take me further down the pride and arrogance path. Or I could see if there's something bigger at work here. To get our attention, God can either bnng us to our knees or bless our socks off " Nelson qwckly concluded his socks were being blessed off, so he did the only natural thing that came to mind: repay God's favors by Cdrefully studying the Bible and getting involved in a church -m his case, Mariners in New- port Beach. The good times - both financially and spiritually - continued. But then came the '90s. The recession spoiled the real estate party and put the once red-hot market into a deep freeze. Nel- son was ltaid off, a fate shared by many real estate superstars. Fo1 some, 1t was a Cdree r dedth sentence from which they still haven't recovered. For Nel- son, his sue months of unemploy- ment were accompanied by u a FISH FRY CONTINUED FROM 1 yctm<.'S, or to try d secret-reape Fish Fry dinner uW<.'

This is where the story gets scary if you've resisted a We of faith. •My first thought when I beard I was being la.id off was the golden handcuffs that had been on my wrists were now lay- ing at my feet, and I'm free,• recalled Nelson. •And then all the fears came." Not for long. His years of Christian devotion kicked in. He replayed Bible verses over and over in bis head. Jeremiah 29:11 (•For I know the plans I have for you ... plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future ... •) Philippians 4:6-7 ("Do not be anxious about anything ... the peace of God . . . will guard your hearts and your minds ... ") and Romans 8:28 (•And we know that in all tllings God works for good of those who love Him who have been called according to His purpose ... u). He spent a week alone in the mountains, thinking and praying and developing a grid of values that he'd run all future decisions through. He and his wife Carrie spent hours talking about the next career move. He had job interviews and explored buying small businesses. Eventually an unlikely job - pastor of men's ministries at Mariners Church (now the Mariners South Coast Church) - found him. How unlikely? Nelson -who never thought of being a pastor -was a real estate executive "She's dynamite,• said Vickie Groskrevtz, one of Ayala's former teachers at Costa Mesa High. "Even though she's now a student at Cal State Long Beach, and sings professionally with Otis · Brown (formerly of the Drifters), she still comes back to our school to work with the younger kids," Groskrevtz said. Ayala said that, although she's not sure what her responsibilities will be, "I'll be available to do whatever the city of Costa Mesa needs me to do.• Less will be expected of 11- month-old Shelby Slezak, who captUied the ''cutest baby" tro- phy for children ages 6 to 12 months.

Plus, he had to take a.massive pay cut. No more custom suits, no more world travel, no more racing power boats. But Nelson doesn't see any hardship whatsoever. "There has been no price to pay,• he says matter-of-factly. "I'm in a more blessed, more secured place than ever before. We want for nothing. I've tasted the world, and what God gives is so much more than the world can provide." You wish Nelson was wearing a rainbow wig and a John 3:16 sign around his neck. It would be so much easier to dismiss him. You want him to be wacky, crazed, just plain off. After all, he gave up everything we hold dear -a prestigious career, a hefty paycheck, a trip or two to Europe. But you look and look and all you see is a regular guy, except for a peacefulness about him that's unnerving. You wonder if he's really stumbled upon some- thing. He says be bas. It's not about becoming a pastor, he's empha- sizes, but about turning your life over to God. The Lord will take your life from there and do great things with your own special tal- ents. Despite the obvious danger, Nelson makes you want to inch closer to the edge of that dread- ed 10-meter. Scary. • WIWAM L08DELL is the editor. He attends Mariners South Coast Church.

Instead of riding the broke' for the entire ride down- h1 II. driver~ would be better of shift- ing their automatic transmissions into a lower gear. That way, the engine compression slows the car and the brnkes can be allowed to remain cool for any stops that may he ahead . The shift to third gelllj second. or even first gear on a road descending downward should be made on the basis of how steep the grade is. The switch to the appro- priate gear c:in pell the difference betwee n having enough braking power at the bottom of I.he hill to make a stop and experiencing brake fade, which is the loss of braking efficiency due to excessive heat. H!NT: Overheated brake drums and dbcs can develop blue-spotting, a condition that requires they be replaced. DRIFflNG TO ONE SIDE? If a car drifts to one side or olher on a straight aqd level road, it is like- ly due to a wheel-alignment problem. ff Lhe problem is severe, drivers may find themselves steering in the opposite direc11on 10 keep the car going straight. There arc strict fac- tory pecifications for the position of both front and rear wheels. lf one of the wheels is tilted inward or out- ward too much, or the wheels are noc parallel, the :iutomobile will steer to one side. This problem can also occur if the rear wheels are not aligned properly with the front wheels. Bithcr way, an alignment ~heck is necessary. While this involved only two wheels in oldc.r rear-wheel-drive cars. the advent of front-wheel drive cars with inde- pendent suspen jons ha made it necessary to alip alt four wheels.

That road attracts up to 4,500 cars each weekday. Newport Beach's committee will consider such ideas as speed bumps and landscaped medians. The city also will be asking the Orange County Transportation Authority to downgrade Santiago Drive's designation from "arterial . roadway" to local street. That would allow the city to slow traf- fic more on that street than they're 'now allowed to. . One idea thrown out at the co~cil meeting -photo radar, wbich would snap pictures of speeders' license plates and send them tickets -seems to be fad- ~g as ~ possibility. It could prove expenslve, and even some of the nt:!ighborhood's residents don't favor it. . ult would probably be tom down by an enraged motorist or it would cause so much outcry, eyen from people who live here,• Berger said. Council.man Tom Edwards, who will serve on the committee, said he'd like to consider more stop signs, speed bumps and speed limit enforcement in the area. Councilwoman Nonna Glover, also on the committee, said though she's not "gung-ho" for speed bumps, she hasn't ruled them out. Whatever the committee decides, all sides seem to agree on one thing: they don't want dri- vers cutting through the residen- tial neighborhoods to avoid back- ups and stop lights. "We have to try to divert the flow over to the main thorough- fares -the 73, the 55 and lrvine Avenue," Edwards said. BUDGET CONTINUED FROM 1 $482,050. The preliminary budget will be available for review begin- ning today. Roeder said the city will con- tinue to look for ways to cut costs by exploring ways to pri- vatize some services or provide work with fewer employees, he said. Among the services being .considered for privatization is the operation of the Neighbor- hood Community Center, street striping and fire apparatus vehi- cle maintenance. Rbeder said the city's capital improvement budget dropped nearly 70% from the 1996-97 budget because major improve- ments such' as the Harbor Boulevard widening project were in last year's budget. Also in the budget is a request by Mayor Peter.Buffa to attend the United States Con- ference of Mayors. Roeder said the city cut back on travel expenses for all dty personnel several years ago, but City Council members are consider- ing whether to fund this year's request. At tonight's City Council meeting, council members are expected to approve a $6,600 contract for the design of a park in the Shalimar Drive area. Ear- lier this year council members approved the allocation of $200,000 for the purchase and design of the park as a way of improving the area for resi- dents. The council is expected to approve a new ordinance to regulate filming activities in the city, plus amend an ordinance regulating the sale of seasonal products to prohibit the sale of flowers. . Additionally, the council will review a draft study of citywide traffic impact fees assessed on new developments and renew its contract for Community Development Block Grant!AOME Investment Part- nership programs. The meeting will begin at 6:30 p .m. at 77 Fair Drive. COLLEGE PHARMACY •• • SINCE 1962 "OLD FASHIONED FRIENDLY SERVICE."

Once the door was kicked in and $10,000 worth of merchandise stolen. The second time, when $3,700 in cash was stolen, Minney knew it was an inside job.

When customers told Min- ney they saw Pabnieri put money in his pocket, Minney said he couldn't act on it unless he saw it himself. Palmieri is being held on $150,000 bail in Orange County Jail since he was arrested April 30 at his Newport Beach apartment.

EYE-OPENER U.S. water polo dominates the world at FINA Cup • Santa Ynez wins third straight CIF Southern Section Divison ID title, but Corona del Mar High's Sea Kings prove they belong in the category of a volleyball powerhouse with superb display. By Barry Faulkner, Daily Pilot CYPRESS -The CIF Southern Section Division m runner-up plaque seems a clunky consolation prize for the Corona del Mar High boys volleyball team. After all, when a season worth of hard work, emotion, camaraderie and compe- tition culminated in a heart-wrenching 11-15, 11-15, 15-11. 15-13, 15-13 loss to Santa Ynez during Saturday's 195- minute championship match at Cypress College, it figured a few days were likely required for the disappointment to give way to perspective. But as reflection reveals more positive memories -including a five-game tri- umph over Newport Harbor to earn a share of second place in the Sea View League with the Sailors, a five-game quarterfinal playoff triumph over top-seeded Laguna Beach, a four-game ver- dict over fourth- seeded Calvary Chapel in the simifinals, even the seesaw swan song against the No. 2 seed -one undeniable rem- nant of the 14-5 campaign is so m e thing COM COACH Coach Steve -Conti and his STEVE CONTI players should savor for years to come. uPart of the focus I wdnted for this team this year had u lot to do with respect,· said Conti, who. though gravely disappointed to not have won the school's first section crown since 1989, its third overall, had plenty of praise for his team's accomplishments. "When we found out we had a pretty tough (playoff) draw, the kids were a lit- tle d.J.sappointed. But we used that as part of our motivation, as well. The -coaches told the kids that no one gives you respect. but this was a golden opportuni- ty to go out there and earn it. And that's exactly what they did.· illustrative of Conti's comments was some postrnatch reaction from Santa Ynez, which has now won three straight ClF Division IJI titles, amassing a 62-2 record during that span, which now includes a 20-match winning streal,<. "That was the toughest match of my We,· said Pirate senior outside hitter Mike Wall. who confessed he knew little about CdM. coming in. "The only thing I told the kids about CdM was that is was somewhere near The Wedge," said Santa Ynez Coach Chip Fenenga, who knows all about the Sea Kings' volleyball reputation, having played himself at San Clemente High in the late 1970s. "Isn't there another Corona too?" inquired Wall. referring to the Riverside County community known more for pun- gent livestock-induced odor than the cool ocean breezes that bathe Orange Coun- ty's seaside locale. "We came into this match way over- confident," continued Wall. who banged a match-high 40 kills in his final prep per- formance before heading to BYU. ·we considered (CdM) a Cinderella team, but we came out and ran into a real good team. We played a little tense in the first two games and it was kind of a reality check. (The Sea Kings) made us wake up." Asked how many times this season the Pirates bad been taken to five games." Wall answered qwck.ly. "This is the first,• Wall said, before Fenenga added: "It has probably been about four years.• Indeed, the Pirates (20-1) had swept past final foes Bishop Montgomery (allowing just 25 points in 1996) and Vtl- lage Christian (yielding 24 points in '95), and had dropped just one of 13 postsea- son games this spring, outscoring the QUOTE OF THE DAY i1t6 only thing I U>ld the kitl.t about CdM ~ that il wa1 IOIMUIMre near th8 ~ ... -SANTA YNErL COAOI OllP FENENGA ..

Struggle, in fact, may have been too mild a description for this championship match, the first title tilt ever lost by CdM. "It was a great match, a great match,• Conti repeated, eschewing redundancy to evoke the proper esteem . "It was exactly like our last two matches, except we came out on the opposite end of the final score." The scores favored each team at vari- ous points in the middle three games, while the first and final games featured at least one tie. "It seemed like Corona won all the big rallies early, then we started winning the big points," Fenenga· explained. The Sea Kings overcame six Santa Ynez over-pass kills to claim first-game leads of 4-0 and 11-6. But the perennial Los Padres League champions pulled even at 4-4 and closed to within 11-10. However, Billy Messenger put away a quick set for a sideout, and an errant Pirate kill attempt, a kill and a stuff block by Dennis Alshuler, as well as a Santa Ynez midline violation, produced the points that gave CdM the opening game.

But the taller Santa Ynez squad. which started six players between 6-foot-3 and 6-6 rallied for leads of 9-8 and 11-9. CdM, however, scored the next six points including kills by Andrews and Hopp~. Then, Messenger (10 kll:lsl authored a stuff block for the game-win- ner. The Pirates who received 31 kills from 6-5 junior ~ Witt, 18 from 6-6 senior Trace Agiri, and 10 from 6-4 sopbo~ore Chris Pena, rallied from a 10-8 third- game deficit. Thanks largely to three straight over-pass kills by 6-1 reserve Josh Richman, they claimed their first game.

Hoppe added · an ace and setter Brady Beauchamp (76 assists) and Greg Burden (seven kills) added te nacious defense to the rally. "To win in the Sea View League, you have to play tough defense," said Santa Ynez assistant coach John Gannon, who coached Newport Harbor's frosh-soph team last spring. ·we knew (the Sea Kings) would play great 'defense and they did." Coon's over-pass putaway forged a 13- 13 deadlock, but Wall, who later said he was "scared" when his team's fifth-game lead evaporated, sileQced the Sea King screams from the bleachers with an over- pass kill of his own for a sideout. A CdM spike attempt sailed wide to create match point and Agin's stuff block closed it out. uwe played with a lot of emotion and intensity the first two games, but we did- n't have that in games 3-4," Conti said. "Then we didn't get it back until we ral- lied to tie in at 13 in the final game, but Santa Ynez executed down the stretch. "I thought Blair and Andrews played fantastic matches for us. Those were two seniors who really stepped up big time." Matt Bums (four kills), Coon (three), Marshall Rothwell, Mike Pliha and Steve Reese also contributed off the CdM bench. "I've got a good feeling it's coming around," Conti said of the program's r~vived reputation. "Making a good run through the playoffs and getting a shot at a CIF championship is something that will help bring that tradition back to CdM.~ Tradition and respect.

Kaplan and Man Son Hing, former UCI standouts and defending Adoption Guild champions, came back in the third set when they broke Brig- gs in the 10th game, tying the I °Set, 5•5, But Briggs-Bowen broke Man Son Hing with four inaed- . ible returns of serve, two by Briggs to ignite the rally. Bowen's powerful two-handed .• backhand return ol serve was smashed up the middle for game point, then Bowen held for the win, the tandem's first in the Adoption Guild. "Mike saved his best lenn.i$ for the important moments," Bowen said, referring to Briggs• forehand returns of serve in the 11th game, both whacked down the line. Briggs, who played in the men's open in the Adoption Guild for.the first time when he was 11, won his fourth title, his first since 1990 when he won the second of two titles with nevor Kronemann Briggs and Kronem.ann, still playing doubles on the pro tour, were partners for six years (two at UCI, fow-on the circuit). They also won an Adoption Guild championship in 1988, the year of the event's largest draw (nearly 1,100 teams). But Briggs' first men's title came with Ross Case in 1984, when Briggs was a 15-year-old CdM freshman. ~it seems like every match here in the finals is Uke that,• Briggs said ol the hard-fought three-set match. Briggs, CIF cham~n in 1985 as a sophomore. also reached the men's open finals once and semifinals twice in the Adoption Guild, in addition to his four titles, bis first with Bowen. Briggs, who now lives on Bal- boa Island, returned lo the area last November after a two-year hiatus in Portland, where he worked for Adidas in bis first full-time corporate job. Eventu- ally, the great Pacific Northwest weather persuaded Briggs to come home. Bowen. a 1990 Estancia graduate who still travels the pro circuit (currently ranked 150th in the world in doubles), and Briggs each won St,750, the larvest payday of the Adop- tion Cuild's four featured matches. Kaplan and Man Son Hing pocketed $750 each. For Jowen, who grew up playing at Mesa Verde TC, the winnings are nice, considering what it's like traveling the world on the challenger circuit. Bowen bas been experienc- ing much success thus far in 1997. though, capturing a dou- bles title at the Croatian Open last month and reaching the finals of two other cballengers. one in Prague, the other in Bratislava, Slovakia.

By Richard Dunn, Daily Pilot NEWPORT BEACH -Parents never stop cheering for their cb.il- dren on the tennis court, even well beyond the junior circuit. Case in point Sunday was Dina Birch, an Estancia High product who won her first Adoption Guild Tennis Tournament in the mixed open division at the Newport Beach Tennis Oub with partner Desi McBride of the Calabasas Tennis Center. Birch, also a teaching pro at Calabasas, was able to share the glory with her two favorite people -mom (Mimi) and dad (Tom) - as she and McBride defeated Nicole Elliot and David Roditi in straight sets, 6-4, 7-6 (7-3), to earn $1 ,250 each, the second-highest paycheck of the event's four fea- tured matches (women's, men's, 35-and-over and mixed). Elliot and Rod.iti won $500 each. Birch, whose watched her sweat while she trained as a junior a t Mesa Verde Tennis Club and Balboa Bay Club Racquet Oub, put on a clinic for her Costa Mesa-based parents in the rru.xed open final of the Adoption Guild's 36th rendition. "It just goes to show, you don't just enjoy watching your kids play as juniors," Mimi Birch said, "you can enjoy watching them as adults." Birch, who dominated Elliot's side of the court, also reached the women's open final with Kirsten Smith. Birch -Smith lost to Gretchen Magers and Terry Hol- laday, 6-3, 7-6. Magers and Holladay, former top-20 p layers in the world, have three children each. Women's open winners received $250 each, losers $125. The low figure is because of the small draw.

"I can't believe it, three years in a ·row,• Downey said. "The com petition is tough every year. because there's so much talent in the area.
