He is a dispatcher, a taxi cab dri- ver and a mechanic for the Costa Mesa business. But driving is probably his favorite part of the job. HDriving a cab is like being your own boss,• Reynolds said. "You never know where you are going to go, and every day is different I'm not stuck between four walls in an office. J go everywhere and see the entire frame of life, from people so poor they are lucky tl they can afford a cab to rich business- people with their brlefcases and suits.

He worked in Los Ange- les in 1984 and later moved to Costa Mesa, where he worked for Souiji Coast Cab from 1992 to 1997 and became a manager. After a collision with a tractor-trail- er left him with a hole in his chest, an artificial hip and a disfigured face, however, Reynolds said he sued the company for bis medical bills and subsequently lost bis job. He quickly got a new job at NICE Taxi. DANGEROUS BUT REWARDING Accidents are not the only dan- gerous part of the job, Reynolds said, adding that he has been robbed at least five times in his career. "You have to be able to read ~ pie quickly,• be said. ·we have no bulletproof windows, so we have to judge whether we're going to feel safe having this person in your cab.

It sea.red me to death because looking at him was like looking at a dead person." People also often try to cheat ta.xi drivers out of their fares, be said. LONG DAYS AND NIGHTS The hardest part of the job ls the long bOurs, he said. ' Shifts are usually 12 boUrs, but sometimes last 18 if the company gets a lot of calls. And the pay is DOt the best. Reynolds said. explnining that he makes about $8.50 an hour after be pays for his car maintenance and the cxxnpauy's dis- patch. insunmce and cdia! rent fees. But the job satisf ac1ion ls worth it, be said. ·1 love it when I can get someone somewhere on time when they are in a hurry,• he said.

M•thl1 Winkler DAILY PILOT NEWPORT BEACH -At first, 01y Council members tried to talk about the btgger picture. After all. they'd met to discuss the city's policies regarding pri- vate piers during a study session on Tuesday afternoon. But when residents, more than 50 of whom had come to City Hall to attend the meeting, began to address city leaders on the subject, it became obvi- ous that a specific issue had them concerned.

Neighbors have objected to both options, saying the boat is too big for the island, that it will get in the way of beachgoers and that it will create a safety hazard for swimmers and other boaters. ""This is not a personal issue,· said Pam Sigband, who lives next door to Cook's houses and has been a vocal opponent of his plans. "No one is attempting to hurt the Cooks in any way. This is about protecting our children and grandchildren. It's just a disaster waiting'to happen.

Pete Swift, who repairs and remodels docks in Newport Harbor, agreed. "I wony about stacking on more layers or government for the docks,• he said. "It seems like it's getting a bit too much.· The existing policy, put in place in 1964, requires city offi- cials to look only at pier and dock size and the effect they have on beach use and navigation. But Councilman Steve Bromberg has asked city offi- cials to draft revisions to the doc- ument, which would ma.Ke boat size a factor in looking at appli- cations for pier permits in the future. He also has suggested putting a moratorium on pier permits on South Bay Front from Garnett Avenue to the Grand Canal until the policy issue has been dealt with. His colleagues aren't all behind that part of his proposal. "I'm reticent to change all these policies because of one boat,• Councilwoman Nonna Glover said. The city's harbor committee will take up the issue at a 7:30 a.m meeting July 24.

The new method has to be better, Mayor Ubby Cowan said. "This is similar to a process we've used before that was successful,· she said.

WHAT IT MEANS: The request includes minor changes from the preliminary master plan because the proposal indudes three stories instead of two, but with a lower height of 55 feet, rather than 160 feet If passed by'the Crty Council, the expansion will also add 301 seats, not 336 as was originally proposed. WHAT THEY SAID: •rm really glad this went thro~h. It's a good project.

Daily Pilot . Robinson deserves strong, green memories BEEK STREET BACKUP Everyone who's enjoyed the Back Bay during the past 25 years owes a debt of gratitude to Fran Robinson. Robinson, who died June 30, and her husband, Frank, are the main and major reason why the bay has protection as an ecolog- ical habitat. Rather than let the Irvine Co. develop the Bay Back in 1969, the cou- ple sued to stop the county from handing over the land. Four years later, a judge ruled in their favor, paving the way for the state to buy the land and tum it into into a preserve. had all the free time in the world. but didn't have a clue how to spend it. How wrong those critics were. Fran, it turns out, had the clear, strong sight of an eagle and was ~ble to see how important it would be to keep the fragile ecosys- tem who1e and unspoiled. The Upper Newport Bay is a beautiful haven for endangered birds. It could have been just another tract of housing. It was a fitting tribute that some 200 people braved a drizzly morning for her memorial service at the Peter and Mary Muth Interpretive Center, which sits on the northe rn edge of the Back Bay. A lasting tribute will be the city's, county's and state's contin- ued preservation of this treasured bit of land, which she helped ensure for KOLL Keep in mind, they didn't set out on this fight at a time when al.most everyone at least claims a green streak and love of the environment. Residents of the city since 1962, they were labeled "kooks," and Fran herself got hit with a double whammy: "bird- brained housewife." The implication is still clear: She · future generations to enjoy. They, too, should treat it right. They should treat it as Fran did. • MIOtAiL RIOtARDSON Is a local cartoonist who will contribute to the Piiot periodically. What should Chris Steel do?- •The Costa Mesa councilman has twice turned down a deal that would reduce charges against him if he resigns. M y own personal feel- ing about what Chris Steel should do is he should take the plea where he would be declared guilty of misdemeanors as opposed to felonies. U that automatically means that be has to resign his post, so be it. He then - at a future time not too far off - could come back and run again and see how the voters felt about il So it seems to me it would be better for him even though be wants to fight every princi- ple. I don't think the turf ls very good right now for that, so I would recommend that be take the plea bargain and the misdemeanor charge and go from that point. As I say, if be bas to give up b1s City Coun- dl position now, so be it if he can come back and run again. I wish him well.

And over on the peninsula. remember the infa- mous Bird Club? They started the wet T-chirt am- tests right in our Back Bay at the annual tricyde races. But they never got into this big of a stink, and that was the era when we still had propeller-driven oommerdal airaaft flying out of Orange County Allport that would really vibrate }'OlU" houle. Then, at 9:45 p.m., the Newport Beach Police Department stormed over Balboa llland bridge with a motorcycle, squad car and a paddy wag- on, announcing on a loud speaker for anyone under the age oJ 18 to get off the ltreetl because the 10 p.m. curfew would put you in jail. Kids were singled out and bu1ca.lly banished from banging out or having fun. There were no fights and hardly more than the typical teen pranks that moct of us would have to fea up to at least once in our perfectness.

There will be a few non- dtrus fruits, too, including subtropical selections such as papayas, mangoes and avocados. In the fair's Home and Hobbies building, craft makers have made every- thing from aprons spotted With limes to cttnis- designed tableware that is as edible-seeming as it is functional.

"My paintings have a lot of complex ideas behind them,• Tauber said. "They're philosophical thoughts to live by. and l picked oranges as a way to express these thoughts because oranges are happy and simple and everybody loves them." He squeezes his own fresh orange jajce every morning and eats a whole orange every day too.

So do graph- ic reminders of the German terrorizing of civilians, espe- cially in the aftermath of the Allies' Normandy landing. The extremities of both were unexpected to me. My wife and I were in Normandy with dear friends who live in Provence and met us in Paris to conduct an eight-day auto trip exploring Normandy and Brittany. lbrough them, we were not only able to communicate in , real depth with the French people we met, but were also introduced to the adven- tures of William the Con- queror, who departed from these same beaches a thou- sand years earlier to claim the English throne. His exploits are described in a magnificent tapestry in Bayeux that plays off nicely against the imposing statue of Gen. George Patton that commands a square in Avranches, where the major American breakthrough took place. We stayed in small towns and bed-and-breakfast places in the countryside, and almost everyone older than 50 whom we talked to had a war story to teU us. Typical was the owner of a splendid country estate near Caen, where Allied war cor- respondents -who weren't, at th"at stage of our history, told what to wnte by the American military -were quartered after the Germans were pushed out.

And how ne bad found body parts scattered 1bout bis yard wheo two Allied planes, shot down by the Germans, crashed there. And how the Germans had fled in the middle of a meal as Allied troops approached. But the place I will have trouble putting from my mind for a very long time is a village called Oradour. There, four days after the Allied Normandy landings, a company of 200 German SS troops surrounded the town and moved into its center, herding all the residents before them. Some 400 women and children were locked into a church. and 220 men were broken into a half dozen separate groups in various parts of the vil- lage. Then, at a signal from the SS captain, the men were shot and the church set on fire. 1Wo days later, before the Allied troops reached this town, the SS returned to shovel the remains into d mass grave.

The effect of all this and the agonizing questions it poses was brought into focus in the town square of anoth- er simple village where we stopped for a drink. A plaque in the square told us that here a group of townspeople had been executed by the Germans. A half-dozen young people were hanging out, and my host asked them what had taken place here. They hadn't the faintest idea and seemed impatient at the question. The Chamber of Commerce was next door, so we went in and asked the same question. The three young staff women didn't know either.

That's the bambuqier that comes with two beef patties, two slices of cheese, multiple slices of bacon, pastrami and a fried egg -if you really need more protein. I love the Coloaal Burger.

Then when you have fin. ished looking at the crops and chomping on your own Colossal Burger, hit the Mid- way and bungee jump to your stomach's and heart's content. U that's not enough, go see a show for free. The fair always books some of the biggest stars of days 'gone by. Last year Evelyn Cham- pagne King sang her heart out for the happy throng who stopped in at the arena j~t after they ate their own Colossal Burgers.

The event, which traditionally unfolds at Edwards Big Newport Cine- ma at Fashion Island, begins with a strolling dinner in.the parking lot at 5 p.m. featur- ing a taste from a large assortment of wonderful restaurants in the communi- ty, followed by a 1 :30 film premier. This year, event co-chairs Jlm and Patil Edward.I and vice chairman Dave Snow- den will present "Captain Corelll's Mandolin," starring Nlcbolu Cage and Pene- lope Cruz. Tickets are $50 and funds raised will benefit the new Women's Pavilion at Hoag Hospital. For more information, reservations and tickets, call (949) 574-7208. Patti Edwards reports that there will be more than 25 of Orange Counties favorite restaurants serving dinner to the 552 crowd, but there will not be any Colossal Burgers. I guess we will just have to get those at the fair. In any event, between summer at the fair, and dinner and a movie for that great local community health center, Hoag, who needs Europe? We certainly live the good life right here on the Orange Coast. • 1HE CJtOWD appears Thursdays and Saturdays.

AIO ~ Juty 12, 2001 . . Hordes should head for Pan 'Asia Mongolian Bar-B-Q~ 8y Jennifer K Mehal M y first exposure to Mongolian barbe- cue came a few weeks ago, when a friend took me to an all-you-can- eat buffet in a nearby town" It was so much fun that I have been hungry to try it again. So, I opened up my trusty Yellow Pages and found Pan Asia Mongolian Bar-B- Q on East 17th Street in Costa Mesa. It's the best find that the phone book ever made for me. The quartet of college- age patrons that trooped in ahead of me for lunch should have been a clue to the pricing of the fare. Thet and the surfers who came in right after. This is no swanky restaurant. Instead, it's a clean, cluttered dive with prices that will leave you feeling flush -espe· cially when you get out' with lunch for two having cost less than $20, including tip. Pan Asia's decor will probably never win any awards, but it's cheerful. Red is the primary color, with Chiriese lanterns and butterfly kites hanging from the ceiling. It's a small place and it gets crowded easily, especially during the lunch hour. The menu is rather limit- ed -basically there's Mon· golian barbecue, Mongolian barbecue and more Mongo .. lian barbecue. wonton soup ($2.50 a bowl), baby egg rolls ($1.60 for 4), fried shrimp ($2 for 2), fried won- tons ($1.20 for six), pocket biscujts ($0.90 for two) and special dumplings ($4 for 10) fill out the side orders, but that's pretty much it. For those who are not familiar with it, Mongolian barbecue consists of sliced meats, vegetables and spe- cial sauces that are stir-fried to order. The fun of going to such a place is that you get to pick out everything and then watch them cook it. One of the nice things about Pan Asia is that while you do get to choose your meat, it is brought to you in a bowl rather than being set out in the buffet. It seems much more sanitary this way -anti you still get to mix between beef, pork, lamb and turkey. Did I men- tion this really isn't a place for vegetarians? I chose lunch •o, •which consists of soup, four fried wantons, two shrimp, one serving of barbecue, a baby egg roll, rice and hot tea for $5.25. Tilis is the most expensive thing on their lunch menu. What a bar· gain! The soup consisted of a thin broth with lots of cab- bage and what I think may have been bok choy. It was • OK, mildly flavorful with not too much salt. Then came the real thing -a bowl filled with lamb and turkey slices, ready for me to add veggies and fla- vor. The serving was a nice size.

Personally, I prefer to experiment.t ended up tak- ing two dippers of curry, one of red pepper, two of medium barbecue and two of barbecue oil (useful for when they stir fry) for my mix.

The plump shrimp were battered and rolled in sesame seeds, which gave them a nice taste and tex- ture. They were firm and ' juicy.

But, since the Tea Cup Classic was launched in 1997, dub champions in the Daily Pilot circulation have earned a ticket ihto the locally famous event for women. ·0nce you win a dub championship,• said first-time Big Canyon Country Club champion Olivia Slutzky, •there's really no drama after winning it. So, n,ow, it's great to look forward to this. It's something special for women golfers.• The cozy, 18-hole stroke-play event -July 27 at Newport Beach Country • Club at 1 p.m. -will feature three- time defending champion Marianne Towersey of Santa Ana Country Club, Denise Woodard of Mesa Verde Country Club, Debbie Albright of host Newport Beach and Slutzky. Since the Tea Cup Classic started in 1997, neither Towersey, Woodard nor Albright have relinquished their respective dub titles. The men Also have tbelr day ln tbe sun now in the Newport-Mesa community -in the form of the Jones Cup. Several of the amateurs playing in Jc;mes Cup Il, Aug. 14 at Santa Ana Country Club, have been hot lately. For example: Not only did Jones Cup participant Gregg Hemphill of Santa Ana win his first men's dub championship this year, be captured the club's member/member low-gross championship with Dave Bock last fall. The team shot 64-68-132 in the better ball of partners, the same format as the Jones Cup. Fo.r Hemphill to Richard Oum win the SACC men's dub GOU championlbip iast spring, it was quite a feat, considering the club's stiff competition from players like Erle Pepys, Prank Robitaille, John Mullins, Lew SchJ,nid, Ed Shumaker, Wayne Searcey, Jake Klohs, Duane Hastings, Boyd Martin and Brian Towersey. Just to name a few. Chris Veitch, Santa Ana's three-time defending champion, did not compete in the 2001 SACC men's dub championship, because the date of the finals conflicted with hiJ daughter'• wedding in La Quinta. · Hemphill. who bas an 8-month-old baby boy at home, became the fourth different player to win a Santa Ana men's dub title since 1995, when Martin won bis fifth title. Rick Herrera won titles in 1996-97. Mesa Verde's Pete Daley, wllo, at 61, is among the busiest senior golfers in the country, is retumlng to the Jones Cup to defend bis title with head pro Tom Saivent. whole Plop Shot Heard 'Rouna the World set up an easy birdie putt on 18 to win last year's inaugural Jones Cup for Mesa Verde.

COStl MESI NATIONAL unu UIGUE MAJORS • Vmnie Valdez drives in· four runs, pitches a complete game in a 9-3 victory over Seaview as locals head further into unchartered waters. SEAN ...ull I DM.Y Pl.OT Costa Mela National AD-st.u Vlnnle Valdez tires away en route to complete-game Wiory. Tony Altobelli OAA.Y Pll.oT HUNTINGTON BEACH -Vumie Valdez did everything except drag the infield, sell the pop- corn and park the cars as the Costa Mesa Nation- al Uttle League Major Division All-Stars took care of Seaview, 9-3, in the second round of the Distnct 62 All·Sta.r Tournament Wednesday. Valdez went 3 for 3 with four RBis and pitched a complete-game masterpiece for the locals, who will advance to Saturday's Area 2 championship game Saturday at 10 a .m. against the winner of today's Robinwood-Seaview matchup. Should Costa Mesa win either on Saturday or on Sunday, if necessary, a ------- ~st~f-three battle_for ~e "These guys are District 62 championship _ against the Area 1 champi-making me look on awaits the 11-and 12-real smart ... ,, year-olds. ·lb.ese guys are mak-BiH Reddina ing me look real smart,• Costa Mesa ~I Manager Bill Redding All-Stars litde League said. "Everyone is con-manager tributing, both offensively-------and defensively.• Despite the team effort, it was Valdez who led the charge. ·He's always m control out there," Redding satd. ·He's a smart pitcher who is in command on the mound and he's a smart hitter who waits for his pitch. He's a real leader for our team.· Mesa used a little two-out magic to get on the scoreboard in the bottom of the first inning when Michael McDaniels doubled down the left-field line and scored on a single to right by Valdez. After a 1-2-3 second inning at the plate for Seaview, courtesy of Valdez, Costa Mesa took control with a four-run outburst. Austin Elliott led off with a single, Starnes Arnold walked and Caleb Burgess was hit by a pitch to load the bases. After a strikeout, Trevor McDonald singled to right, scoring Elliott for a 2-0 Mesa advantage. Evan Van Geem followed with an single of hl.s own, scoring Arnold. After a runner was thrown out at the plate for the second out, Valdez came through with a two- run single, scoring McDonald and Van Geem for a 5-0 Mesa lead. •Taldng an early lead makes such a differ- ence,• Redding said. ·we were facing a pitcher who plays on a tough travel-ball team so we knew he could throw hard. You could see their team start to get down a little bit, while we started to get up a little bit.• Valdez continued to mow down the Seaview batting order until a two-out solo home run by Brad Ad8lD.S in the third inning cut the lead to 5-1. Using a strong assortment of fastballs and breaking stuff, Valdez kept Seaview guessing at the plate. •He would throw his off-speed pitch a couple of times to each batter, not just once, like SEE NATIONAL PAGE 82 Playing with re • Corona del Mar's Charlie Alshuler is working to avoid defensive back's biggest fear: Getting burned.

Redding aakl. •They really didn't know what wu oomtng at them.• Mesa oontinued to pour on the offense in the fouth tnn1ng. laylor McClanaban was bit by a pitch. advanced to second on a single by McDonald and scored when Van Geem's grounder was misplayed by Seaview's sec- ond baseman, giving Mesa a 6-1 lead. After-a double play, Valdez liingled to left to score Van Geem '9m third and P.J . Errington ended the four-run frame with a two-run home ·run to right. •1.ast game, it was Michael (McDaniels) and Vinnie (Valdez) with the big hits and today~ P.J. tame through with a big hit,• Red- ding said. Seaview finally showed some life in the top of the sixth. After the first batter was retired on a groundout, five straight ~vieW bitten sm~ off of Valdez, but even that rally wH mlN· mized ~the Mesa pitcher. With two runnen on, Seaview's Mike Lucaa sin· gled to left to scote Do.vid McLaughlin from second. Valdez caught the relay throw from center field and faked the throw to the plate, which lured a Seaview run- ner too far off of second base. Valdez threw to shortstop Van Geem. who tagged out the runner for a very impor- tant second out •0n1y Vmnie would have done that,• Redding said. "He stays under control and he's always thinking out there." Two more singles followed and a third run scored. but Valdez ended the game with his seventh strikeout to end Seaview's tally.
