AU:X COOLMAN ~Pfd Call it the Other Miracle of I Ianukkah: Not the miracle that happened more than 2,000 years ago in the Temple of Jerusalem when a day's worth of lamp oil ldSted for eight days, but the miracle that happens every year in the Uruted States when Hanukkah, a .holiday that ldkes place perilously close to Chnstmas, somehow man- ages to avoid most of the crass com- meroalization that goes along with the events of the 25th. Hanukkah, which takes place Fri- day to Dec. 10 this year, remains a fairly low-key and mearungful event, despite the example of Christ- mas. Jn part, this is because Hanulc.kah, as some local Jewish organizations will discuss in upcom- ing programs, is a celebration rooted in a commitment to religion. · Though Christmas has come to be an extremely secular holiday cel- ebrated by many people who don't hold any sort of Christian beliefs, Hanukkah is an event whose entire reason for being 1S tied to the persis- tence of the Jewish faith in the face · of persecution. The holiday marks the victory of the Mdccabees. a group of Jews led by Judah Maccabee, over the army of King Anticx;hus Ephlphancs in 165 BCE. Antiochus had cut off the Jews' right to practice theJI religion and imposed many other restJict:Jons on thelC livelihood. When the Maccabees retook the Temple of Jerusalem from the king, they hoped to cleanse the temple of the "defilement• of their Greek ene- mies. But only one day's worth of undefiled oil was available to burn in the menorah of the temple, and it would take many days to prepdl'e a new supply. The small amount of oil is said to have lasted for eight days, however. Today's Jews commemo- rate the event by celebrattng eight evenings of Hanukkah -a word that med11S "rededication" -each with its own candle on the menorah. Gift-giving is a part of Hanµ}ckfh because the holiday is suppo~~ jto benefit the less powerful: children and the poor are often on the receiv- 1rtg end of this impulse. But celebration -of religious freedom and religious community - rem.a.ins the strongest note of the holiday. Local Jewish orgaruzations hav~ scheduled a number of events designed to bring people together to. mark the historic occasion. Newport Beach's T-emple Isaiah will hold a potluck dinner and its DON LEACH I DAILY PILOT Syndicated radio talk show host Dr. Laura Schlesslnger Ughts the first candle on the menorah durllig the Hanukkah celebration at Fashion Island ln 1998. Hebrew school will present a pro- gram on the history of the event. Temple Bat Yalun plans events for every night of Hanukkah, intjuding a concert of 1ts children's choir at the Orange County Performing Arts Center on Dec. 5., religious school services Dec. 7 and 8 and a dinner for preschoolers Dec. 9. Among its events, the Jewish Community Center will hold a pro- gram showing preschoolers how to create oil from olives to bum in the menorah and a cooking course that will teach them to make latices, the potato pancakes that, along with doughnuts called sufganiyot, are the foods traditionally eaten for Hanukkah. The shopping centers also Will be gettlng .into the act, of course. Fash- ion lc;land's menorah lighting, at 4 p.m. Friday,.featutes a few musical acts to attract crowds as well as drei- del.S and chocolate "geW for chil- dren. .. For many members of the Jewish community, though, this is less a tune for emptymg the bank account on lavish gifts than for perlonning the simple rites that are associated with Hanukkah and remembering their historical sigruficance. Jerry Rapier, a Garden Grove res- ident and member of Temple Isaiah, said the period ID tu.s household bas more to do with prayer than pur- chasing power. •we no longer have kids at home,• Rapier said, •so as far as we're concerned we basically light the Hanukkah menorah.• Rapier explained that three prayers went along with the ceremo- nial lighting. "There is one that thanks God for keeping us alive and allowing us to arrive at this occasion, one that praises God and acknowledges lus commandment to light the Hanukkah lights And the third is praising God for having perf orrned the miracles of Hanukkah," he said. · Ann Brown, a Costa Mesa mothfil of two and a member of :remple Isa· iah, said she gives her children gifts, but had recently decided to change the way she approached the holiday. "Just this year we said, ·vou know what? We're not going to do a big thing with presents,"' Brown said. Brown characterized her old approach to Hanukkah as •a lot more matenalistic," with elaborate gifts doled out on each rught. This year, though; the approach will be dilferent. "We light the can- dles, and we use a homemade menorah," Brown said. ·we buy the coolest candles we can find.• Brown's children -11-year-old Harrison and 9-year-old Rebecca - will receive money, but not too much money. "When l was a child, that was all we ever did,• Brown said. The point of the change, she said, was to emphaSlZe what was important in Hanukkah: the time the family was able to spend together and the spiritual conncc-• tions the rituals helped forge with the events of the past. •we don't need (more elaborate proceedings) to symbolize that it's a holiday, because it's in our hearts," Brown srud "We don't go overboard. We just wdnt the kids to be understanding that this is their heritage and this 1s their tradition. • •All this needs to mean -some- thing,• she said.

Worship ser- vices are Sunday at 10 a.m. The service is Japanese and English and includes sutra chanting and a teaching message. The message is based on the teachings of Buddha's words and concerning the three treasures of Buddhism, how we are human beings, receiving the Buddha Dharma, and receiving peace of mind. Often the teachings of Buddha are relat· ed to a contemporary issue. Those attending can also make incense and/or monetary offerings.

I hciV~ got- ten completely out of control when 1t comes to dcckmg the halls and lest l become com- pletely overwhE>lmed, there is no ether choice but to extend the decoration process over Sf!vcraJ days. Before I get started, l might go over to Fashion Island and' check out the world's largest Chnstmas tree. This might give me the ~spiration I need to gel those red and green boxes out of the attic. What a shame to cut dO'h'll such a magniltcent tree, but the years that Fashion Island put up the fake, mod tree JUSt didn't dolt for me Give me that pine smell, thos<' beauti: ful lights. I love thdt. I Iowev- cr, I don't love the pdrkmg nightmare. Maybe I'll go another time. I am contemplating buy- ing a different kind of fresh tree this year. I always get noble fir, I like their spare, sort of Zen-hke drtisllc twist on Chnstmas. This llme maybe a Douglas hr or a blue spruce, JUSt to shake things up This is going to require more contemplation, I'd better wait. Poinsettias. More choices, · red, white, pink or vc1ncgdt- ed. Nothing 1s simple any- more 1 usually go for a lot of white poinsettias ~n masse. l think I'll stick with tradition on this one , The front door 1s edsy. A few years tigo J inherited d ~ird petit point wtlU hanging from my grandmother It's so out it's m. It's quHky, uncon- ventional. especially with lhe red velvet !ming. 1l screams Chrhtmas. I even think one of the birds is a cardinal. This was destined to be a decoration. NO PLACE • LIKE HOME karen wight The outside of the house I leave to the husband and kids. That's their territory, and I am thankful I don't have to do it. This will be one area that will be com- pleted because it is the only reason I will allow the kids to get on the roof (to string tl:ie Christmas lights). This 1s great motivation for them. I love live garland. The smell is wonderful, but this does take some tinH~ to fig- ure out the lengths for the mantles, the front door and the tops of the kitchen cabi- nets. This year I vow to write these measurements down so I can pull out the cheat sheet next year. Can't find my measuring tape Dam. I can handle buymg a large amount of red and green apples. ThlS 1s a gro- cery store purchase and I have to tithe to RaJphs any- way. The centerpiece will dehrutely happen. Back to the kids. TI1ey like to string Christmas lights on their headboards. Last year, m an effort to explain some of their qu1xot ic behavior, I checked the lights near their heads for EMTs (electromagnetic transmissions). The lights · checked out to be perfectly safe. I'll have to find another excuse for the kids.

J told myself thdt Uus year 1t would be a good idea to tak" some cooking classes wJlh the klds. There are sev- eral holiday classes that sound great. The fU'St-grader thinks lhe Gingerbread I louse class offered al Sur la Table in Corona del Mar Plaza would be perfect It's being held Dec. 12 and Dec 18. There's . ' A simple centerpiece for the holidays: a crystal bowl with silver and gold ornaments and beads ls an elegant attention getter. ' still time to act on that one. I'm considering a Chnstmas Brunch class at Home Chef in Atnum Court. The menu {or Christmds dinner at our house is set in stone, but I do have room to 'Wlggle w1th break- fasVbrunch. The menu includes gmgerbread waffles Wlth orange walnut butter, scrambled eggs \\l'llh Mascar- pone cheese and red flannel hash. That sounds great, a lot of work, but great. The class IS at 3 p.m . Dec. 4. Of course l do realize that the kids will only be eating the candy canes out of tbeu stockings anyway. l'll have to Uunk about the class. I'm begmning to realize that for all of my great inten- tions, the motivation might not be there to i.nSpue a flur- ry of creativity. Maybe I should give it another week and see if the spirit moves , me. Surely, a few Christmas carols in the house and cards from friends will inspire me. 1 love getting those fumLly pic- ture curds. I keep them in a big tllbum year after year Some families hdve 17 pic- tures all lml'cl up, straight from b<tby picture to college. It's decided, this 1s not the weekt>ncl to gdthN the full head of steam, but the wheels arP turning. Just lhmkmg etbout the sights dnd lhP. smell., 1s reason enough tq gt>t staf'\ed. By next week I'll be m full swmg and th<• house will begm to come together. The kid-. w1U msp1re me with thmr enthusiasm, the tree will go up, and garland will be h\lng. After all, I won have them Cdptive for much • longer und I realize that thes are them good old days.

THEATER That's because 11 "home' is South Coast Repertory, • specifically the theater's main- stage, where Keller has been directing SCR's holiday pro- duction of •A Christmas Car- ol'' for the past 20 years. Keller, 61, was on board at the project's inception m 1980 and has 9'Ji:ded the popular production ever since. He's not alone in that regard'. Cast members Hal Landon Jr (Scrooge) and Howard Shangraw (Fred) also nave participated in every produc- tion, and lighting designers Tom ~d Donna Ruzika have illuminated every perfonnance. Currently Keller's in rehearsal for the 20th incarna· ti.on of the classic Charles Dickens fable, adapted two decades ago by SCR dr,t:- maturg Jerry Patch in response to the theater's inten- tion to "do a special show for the holiday season." • Speoal" proved to be an understatement. The show's enormous popularity necessi- tated repeated stagings. Lan- don became somewhat of a local legend for his portrayal of the miserly Ebenezer Scrooge, whose Christmas morning conversion never fails to delight audiences. . · "The show has changed, subUy. over the years," Keller said, noting that the character of young Jacob Marley was inserted several seasons ag9 to add more substance to the young Scrooge's character. And, of course, some of the principal role~ -though not that many considenng the show's two-decade lustory - have changed hands. ~ This year's audiences will see the familiar specter of Marley's ghost in the fom1 of Don Took, and the jolly Mr. and Mrs. Fezziwig in the per- sonages of Art Koustik and Martha McFarland, as well as Richard Doyle app~aring as the spirit of Christmas past. All are SCR founding artists who were aboard in 1965 dnd '66 when the company firSt took root on the Newport Beach bay front .

After plenty of politi- , caJ wrangling in the past few weeks, Newport Beach's new mayor will be John Noyes. The council- man and small-business owner from Balboa Island EDITORIAL has served for . the past three years and, we think, is deserving of the post. First, we want to wish him good luck. Being may- or of any city is a challenge. With Newport Beach, it's more of an art form. The seven-member council is extremely political and at times seems rather unwieldy. Not only that, you have a consistency and a local newspaper that is 'very active and always very demanding. However, Noyes is lucky to have the path toward civility and unity paved by former Mayor DenniS O'Neil r When O'Neil took office last year, he faced a com- munity still reeling from the (orced resignation of former City Manager Kevin Mur· phy and all of the bizarre drama that followed, including the threat of a recall election and many Unhealed wounds among council members. Not only that, O'Neil led a council that was faced with more than one large public policy issue that year: hiring a new chief executive, deal- ing with the El Toro airport battle and deciding whether to annex the New· port Coast and Santa Ana Heights. Despite being dealt that hand, O'Neil -by most accounts -negotiated his job deftly. A new city man- ager is in place, the city has stepped out of the limelight on the airport issue and annexation plans are underway. It's time for Noyes to take over where O'Neil left off. Noyes should also look to O'Neil as an example of a councilman who went from being in the background of ity Hall to the forefront of nearly every issue. Noyes, having never served as vice mayor, has always kept to :.himseU. While he appears ght and well-meaning, e strikes us as a public Official who would probably ther not talk to reporters ery day or have his pie· ture in the ncwspap r on a eekly basis.

After <l 38-yard Bryan Arqu<.•llo field goal, Stewart ct1ppt'd a 10-play. 97- yard mdfch that included a gutsy fourth-and-one c onvers1on from the Tars' own 27. weekend and the one· game experience of Mater Dei a l NewpQrt's gym, Glenn doesn't think t.tce home cook.mg will help too muc;h "They always have such a strong Collowmg over there," Glenn said. •Tuey obviously know how to win here and with the crowd that they bring, they actually might have more on their side than us. I know it's going to be loud m there on both sides. Hopefully the holiday won't keep the crowd away." The strongest thing going for Glenn's crew is the expenence fac- tor. "We've played in Hawaii, Chicdgo and we've taken on some of the best teams m the country,• Glenn said. "Now with each win, the competition gets stronger and stronger d.Od we're excited to be here Thdt's why we've workea so hard." Third time's the charn1? •Sea Kings go 1 loUywood in attempt to stop Harvard· Westlake. .ro~1 I'll Buo Dciy~ NORTI'.I HOLLYWOOD -~ike tho heddless horieman haunting lchol>od C1ane, Harvard-Westlake High's girls volleyball team·seems to follow Coro- na del Mar everywbere. First, tho Wolvennes beat the Sea Kings tn a two out-of-three match at the San Mdl'cos Tournament. Then, they beat Corona del Mar in tho ClF Southem Section Division IIJ ·AA emifmals. Tonight, at 7, No. 3 seed CdM (20- 10) will travel to North,Hollywood and tace No. 2 Harvard-Westlake (24-6) agam in the second round of the Southern Regionals of the state play· • otrs. MI thiil.k if the girls aren't fired up, they better leave their uniforms at home," CdM Coach Steve Conti said after the team's victory over Universi- ty of San Diego High in the fU'St round. Hlt's the first thing the girls men- tioned alter the match They wanted the rematch, and they'll get it.• The key for the Sea Kings ts pretty simple, play at their best. That is easi- er said than done though, for a talent- ed, but inconsistent team. •It just depends on our team's exe- cution,• Conti said. •Both tunes, we felt we haven't played them at our fullest potential.• Harvard-Westlake didn't Just depend on the benevolence of CdM to win twice. The Wolvennes did their part with good defense. The Wolver- mes' he,ight provides a lot of problems · for any of their opponents. "They're a big team,• Conti said. •Tuey block a lot of balls. The key will be for our girls to not be intimidated when they get blocked." Last time, b· l middle blOcker .Ashley Julian was moved from the right to the left side, and coupled Wlth another 6-1 middle blocker, Courtney Schultz, pro- vided problems for CdM. Even though Harvard-Westlake's height makes spiking the ball difficult, CdM's Dinutra Havriluk still had 25 kills in the semilinals, and Jamie Brownell's 16 kills wasn't too shabby, either As long as .Cd.M avoids another incident like game three, it should be all right. In that game, the Sea Kings lo:)t a 5-0 lead and the momentum, and Harvard· Westlake cruised the re.,;t of the way to win the match. But a repeat performance lS less likely this time around. "These girls are very focused,• Conti said. •They've been looking forward to this rematch for a while.• SCore by Quarters Villa Parle O 7 3 Newport 0 14 7 Second Quarter NH • Brill 2 run (Gaeta kick), 5 04 VP · Creco 8 pass from Jil<ksori (Arguello kick) 2:54 NH • Jacobs 11 pass from Manderlno (GHta kick), 1 22 Third~ hit Maoderino 9 run (Gaeta kick), 7:38.
