For a sportscaster, Albert has a strangely serious demeanor, which to me iS more suited to what's happening in the Middle East than the Big East. Albert's somber persona is so odd that he has been fertile ground for everyone from Jay Leno to •sat- urday Night Live.• More ger- mane to this discussion, Albert is a nerd. And that's what makes this story so surreal. Marv Albert, Arnold Stang, Mr. Peepers (a.k.a . Wally Cox), Much is new in the new year at Lincoln Lincoln Elementary School opened its doors to approximate- ly 850 students Sept. 10, making Lincoln the largest elementary school in the district.

Albert is about 5-foot-4 and sports (sony) one of those won- derful toupees that do so much to improve a man's appearance. It's a black thing that always looks crooked, with an overly pronounced pa.rt on one side. In short. Albert has been called a lot of things but never, to my knowledge, a hunka hunka bumin' love. ny to square that image with the charges leveled by Albert's 42-yea.r-old accuser. To summa- rize, Albert allegedly greets her in his hotel room dressed in what, ah, used to be called "foundations• in the lingerie department. Without warning, Albert scurries across the room school days garten through third grade, the school bad to undergo facility renovation to build two new classrooms and hire five new teachers. Also new to Lincoln is the school's mascot, the Lincoln Leopard. Toward the end of last year's school session, students enthusiastically raised funds to help finance the new mascot adorning the structure's wall. "The level of enthusiasm from like a basset bound on the . charge. rnv to conjure the always romantic ensemble of a latex whatever by Olga and the crooked toupee.) When the wooum resists, he allegedly bites her repeatedly on the back. At first, Albert issues the obligatory denials, personal out- .rage and predictions of total vin- dication. He vaguely remembers the woman, doesn't know where Virginia is, has never stayed in a hotel, etc., etc. When the prose- cutor notes at the preliminary hearing that the bite marks on the woman are both a dental and DNA match with Albert, he adjUsts his story ever so slightly. Albert now recalls that he and the woman have, in fact, carried on a 10·year affair, which both readily admit. (Look, it's very hectic being a network sports- caster. You can't remember every little detail, for heaven's sake.) Albert's version of the Lost Weekend in Arlington is that everything was consensual, including Albert's Rottweiler imi- tation, and he was, of course, set up {see file under "Gifford, Frank"). Tuesday was a big day for the Albert team. They produced a recording of the woman coach- ing a potential witness and offer- ing $50,000 and a car if his memory behaved. I suspect Marv's attorneys had to restrain the little guy from leaping out of both students and parents of Lin- coln elementary school is truly remarkable,• noted Bruce Crockard, principal. "The com- mitment to this school is appar- ent in the high level of parent volunteerism and the success of student fund-raising endeavors," he added. •It was exciting to see the students raise money for the new mascot." -Rita Goldberg, publldty cha1r It's a Cellular Celebration with up to S50 in Rebates on Grabe,.e CRYSTALPLEAr· Petal soft, double cell shadesand ~~TM The Value Leader in Single Cell Shades can (714) 545-4070 ~--- his chaJr and shouting •Ye1SS5SI • On Wednesday, the wheel of fortune spun 180 degrees. A sec- ond woman testified she had a nearly identical confrontation some years ago with Albert. She, • too, entered Albert's hotel room and found him in full battle dresa, complete with camisole and chomping. Doesn't look good, Marv. Down by six points with five seconds left. But wait. Yogi Berra was right. It ain't over because, well, it ain't over. Wednesday evening's news revealed tl\at Albert's accuser has been juggling a number of long-term affairs and has been charged with sending threats and stalking other dun- derheads like Albert in recent yea.rs. At this point, about all we can safely conclude is that both these people are: 1) nuts, and 2) the perfect couple. It's the biting that still gets me, though. How many times did your mother tell you not to bite? Of all the lessons in We, this one is not hard. Obviously, Marv Albert missed that lesson. Of course, Mike 'fyson missed the whole semester. Who dares to say that this is not a wonder- ful world? Live We to the fullest. Be the best that you can be. Just don't bite. I gotta go. • PETER IRffA is the mayor of Costa Mesa.

The store is designer-oriented and features many custom made items, beginning with its lead product -Taylor Bowen Furniture -which drives the look of the store. They showcase French, English and American Country furniture, but one of the brightest aspects to the line is the children's furrushings.

How to fireproof your home and protect it from wood destroying organisms Most houses may a4eady have fire retardant roofs and walls, but the attics and crawl spaces often are forgotten. Fires often start in these "hidden" areas, where combustible items are stored. The FR 3500 is one of the only Are retardants that can be used as a spray to protect exposed wood from becoming flammable . The superior FR 3500 fire retardant chemical is certified by UL as a pressure- processed application. There is also the option to include a wood preservative treatment chemical to the Are retardant spray. The chemical descriprton, di.sodium octaborate tetrahydrare. commonly known as DOT, is a water soluble ERA registered tennicide and insecticide product. It is a pro-active approach to preventing termites. Both sprays are guaranteed for life. According to rhe Profeaional Pest Control Operators Industry, many existing buildings constructed of wood have been identified as being infested with a variety of wood desaoying organisms. Over time, the structural integrity of the wood building could be permanently affected by wood destroying fungi and wood boring insects. The value of combining FR 3500 and OOT is an application yielding a dual purpose, that is, fire resistance while aggressively destroying wood boring Insects.

The obvious roadblock to Marina the likes of Esperanza, Los Alamitos, even potential newcomer Mater Del 1be Vikings based previous appeals on geography, but competitive equity and enrollment also make them less than an ideal fit in the PCL. However, negotiations between the PCL, Sunset and South Coast leagues, orchestrated by Crowley and section administrators, are reportedly on the veige of producing a more amen.able solution. Such a deal could allow Marina to remain in the Sunset League, making the PCL a five-team alliance, until Irvine-based Northwood, on schedule to open the fall of 1999. • remaining in the Sunset is the di.spen.sation of schools scheduled to oomprtse the Sunset and South Coast leagues. Theoretically, either the Sunset or South Coast would need to approve an additional seventh member, which would create scheduling difficulties. Of course a PCL eventually consisting of Marina and Northwood would ultimately face the same seven-school dflemma. PCL holdovers Costa Mesa, Estanda. Laguna Beach and University, as well as newcomer Corona del Mar, all support Marina's wishes. And, with Crowley's leadership, all parties just may come away satisfied. Eat your heart out.

TENNIS:~ edges C.po Valley -Newport Harbor High's girls tennis team (4-2) captured a nonreague contest against capistrano Valley, 10-8, thanks in part to the near-domination of the Sailors' doubles teams. AOOAY, SEmMIElt 26, 1997 • When you really want to get into it. there's just nothing better than fishing with the experts. Ed Dillon ol Newport Beach spends most of his time behind the tackle counter at Anglers Center, but tries to get out fishing at least once a week. Dillon invited this outdoor writer to join him aboard the boat Tinfoil, a 19-foot aluminum Bayrunner that iS decked out with all the best iishing gear and some apgling secrets that Dillon has collected over the past half-centwy of sportfishing out of Newport Harbor. Dillon arranged to pick me up at the L St. public pier on the peninsula at 6 a.m. Wednesday morning. I don't know how he found the dock in the fog. but he was right on ti.me with a boat load of tackle and an empty bait tank. Normally, Dillon gets up at 4 a .m. and catches his own greenback mackerel at the end of the west jetty before beading to the fishing grounds at first light. "Couldn't get a bait to bite and look at this fog rolling ~." he said as he pulled up to the dock. • This fog is going to push us back on our time schedule and I sure don't want to run into a fast-moving freighter in the steamer lines." The bait boat Pamela Rose had made a couple sets on anchovies and sardines just south of the east jetty and was at the bait receiver when Dillon pulled in to buy bait. a small scoop of mixed anchovies and sardines and one greenback mackerel would be enough to get us through the day, but Dillon wanted to stop and try one more time for mackerel at the mouth of the harbor before heading toward the 14 Mile Bank. A look into the bait tank, glistening with shiny scales was an indication that perhaps our bait was not as good as it sbould have been for a full day of fishing. Dillon metered mackerel right off the rocks and 12 little greenies were added to the bait tank as the morning fog lifted. A course to the 14 was set and in less than 30 minutes the Tinfoil was over the high spot where there were no birds and no sign of life in the sea. •Let's move down to the 209 and check the floating kelp on the way for yellowtail and dorado, • Dillon said. The first patty produced a couple of small tails on live bait, the 209 spot held nothing and then it was off to the 181 spot. -· Jim v niemiec -.... -" J. -.. A kelp popped up out of the ' fog and it was loaded with lots al .. school sized yellowtail. A quick check of our bait supply showed" all but a handful of anchovies were dead and the sardines were too big for the three to 10-pound yellowtail that were eager eaters. Every bait accounted for a hooked tail and we only kept three for runner. releasing another dozen to grow up for next season. ' Conditions changed drastically in the channel as calm seas began to ripple and then a ~ steady wind out of the west made us question how muc.h , further off the coast would Dillon take the small 19-footer. - The compass turned 180 degrees as the small craft headed into a building chop and stronger winds. There were 27 miles of bad ocean to cover before the protection of the .. Newport twin jetties would offer • up a safe haven. The hurricane was building off Baja, but these ..A winds were coming out of the west. Weird! Soaking wet, the Tinfoil bucked the chop and win blown waves as it joined huge yachts and commercial swordfish boats who had also experienced the sudden tum in weather. It was a good trip topped off by a 12-pound skipjack that bit a daisy chain feather trolled in the soup of the stem of the boat as we crossed over the 279 high~ Over at Davey's Locker, anglers were unloading their . catch for the day and, despite afternoon winds, the catch was good. Joe Monaco of Newport Beach weighed in a 14 112-pound yellowtail that he booked off the stem of the half-day boat Western Pride. Bill Williams of Costa Mesa docked his Boston Whaler at public pier in Balboa and showed off five yellowtail he caught about eight miles southwest of Salt Creek. A heavy task for all, I suppose, but, well, somebody's got to do it!

You·n have fun watching 'In & Out' T he premise iS topical, the situations are normal (well, almost), the people involved are likable and what transpires is genuinely funny. There are many pleasures to savor with •1n & Out,• starring Kevin Kline, and I'~ still lau_gh- mg over il. Eleanore Humphrey Kline chooses his roles careful- ly, with a preference for the 'odd- ball' in the guise of a seemingly conventional character. Witness his eccentric portrayals, beautifully realized, in "Silverado, • •A Fish Called Wanda," "Soapdish" and "Dave.· He's done it again in this droll picture. He is a high school English teacher in an Indiana town. His affable personality coupled with bis love of teach- ing and of literature - Shakespeare. in particular - have made him popular with students, parents and just about everybody. His life is orderly, satisfying and he is scheduled lo marry bis longtime love a week after the Academy Awards.

It wouldn't be fair to tell you what happens because your enjoyment of "In & ow• should- n't be spoiled. Rest assured, however, that what seems like a more-or-less pedestrian plot has unanticipated twists, sly bits of humor and reactions by some of the characters that keep this movie fresh and thoroughly enjoyable. The dialogue is so natural, the reactions of everyone so true to life that the abilibes of the saiptwriter. director and actors to titillate you might slip past you if you're not alert. Of course, moviegoers understand that there is nothing •natural• or •true to life• m any movie, play or novel. It's all carefully contrived and it ta.lees a high degTee of skill to make what you see seem real. "In & Out" manages to do this, with a mini- mum suspension of belief. K\ldos to Kline, Joan Cusack, Tom Selleck, Matt DWon. direc- tor Frank Oz, scripter Paul Rudl)ick .and the collective cast andaew. Occasionally one sees a film in which the cast really seems to enjoy what it is aeating. The participants of "In & Out,• witJl grea~ control and timing, appear to be having fun. You will, too. • B£ANORE ~. "O'<lef 65, • lives in Costa Mesa and k a polltkal junkie invotved with several city com- mittees. See 'In' or you '11 regret it A comedy with a story. That's absurd, right?

It is, however, a successful video production company whose last project, Orange County band Reel Big Fish's "Sell Out" video, is in heavy rotation on MTV Bullet Train to Vegas is pow- ered by two homegrown Orange County guys: Jeff Gordon, 27, who started the company two years ago, and Brian Singer, 28, a pro- ducer who joined Gordon last year. Their office, located m the heart of Newport Beach, is not the typi- cal Hollywood production suite you'd find on Sunset Boulevard. Instead, it's a modest, lightly deco- rated one-room office, complete with a thrashed surfboard and two monster desks parked head-to- head. Behind the desks sit Gordon and Singer, two guys who look more like interns than successful production company executives - but that's exactly what they are and their success increases with every project. The SUC'CeSS of the company is evident in their work -first with the "Sell Out" video and now with the upcoming •space epic" video for Gold.finger's "This Lonely Place,• which was filmed last week at Lyon Studios in Newport Beach. Gordon, a Newport Beach resi· dent. enjoys the location of his office. "I can ride my bike down to the boardwalk to where the stage is when we're shooting,• he said. "When I want to take a break. I can sit outside and look at the boats instead of being in Los Angeles and walking out into a crack alley. • Although offers have powed in to shoot videos in London and New York and work at larger pro- duction companies in Los Angeles, the Newport Beach location hasn't lie line 'Die Nolt llmDGll'Z""l'-Tlps OD lalord In Orange Couatyl • 46 Jmpart Beas • 4J Nao lln:wtn We feature over ~ alngf&malt ~ blended Scotch Whlsheys as well as many top.of~ bourbons, t~ultas and brandies. llMRY ,, llAllY'S GOAT HILL TAVEM 1830 Newport Blvd. Newpon at Harbor Costa Mesa (71 4) 548-8428 •• CAltOS DON I.EACH I OAl.Y Pl.OT Stage announcer Eric Priestly tells everyone It's a wrap as dlrector Jeff Gordon looks at a perfect take on video ICnleDL stopped the growth of Bullet Train to Vegas. •rve already proved that I can do it here, "Gonion said Singer agreed. •rve heard peo- ple say, 'There's no aeativity south ol the 60.5 (freeway).'

So why did two young men forego college and start a reqi- men of running a seven-day-a-· wee.k business? It's hard work, they concede, but worth every minute. While other men their age are out partying and worrying about what to wear on disco night at tbe local club, Walker and Miller are doing exactly what they want to do -creat- ing artwork. : "I don't think we intended to do as much as we have, but we've got a handle on it,• said Miller, a surfer type who has long blond hair and a peaceful countenance. They say their designs attract a wide range of people and reflect several subcultures such as psychedelic, surf, skateboard, snowboard and rock 'n' roll. The designs are inspired by rock art posters of the 1960s and '70s, when the artist's work was more important than the name of the company or band that it endorsed. "It's the design that ultimate- ly sells something, not the name,• Walker said. As a junior in high school, Miller beqan designing T-shirts for BWabong and Quiksilver and designed the cover of the 1994 Newport Harbor High School yearbook. Walker learned bow to do screen printing at Orange Coast Colleqe and the two teamed up for a Grateful Dead tour in 1995 where they sold custom T-shirts. The money to start up the business -now almost 2-years- old -came from various investors and Walker's colleqe fund, which bought them a printer they U5eQ in Walker's parent's one-car ~age. Now a large mail-order and custom design business, the two are confident that their art will stand the test of time. "I've been doing these designs since I was a junior in high school," Miller said. "The designs are the same, the quali- ty is the same.• The pair say they're just tak- ing one day at a time, but would like to someday have an entire line of line of clothing and books of artwork. The company also started doing recordings and recently helped the band You, fonnerly the Mushroom Helmets, cut an album. And though they've already been somewhat successful, they're not interested in becom- ing famous just yet. ·we know we have a good thing and we don't want to rush it,• Walker said. "Our goal is for Green Sun to be known as a company that's about the artist and to help other artists gain recognition.• Green Sun merchandise is available through the compa- ny's catalog and various shops in Orange County.
