the device allows users to plug the iPod
into their laptops of desktops and
access a music-industry sanctioned
Web site to download songs. There are
no monthly subscription fees and each
song costs 99 cents. AJbwns can be

The law enforcement officer has

credit, does not compromise his

Bridgman said the curve. by
itself, is not a "tight. dangerous

"It's just unexpected because

"We have sweeping, wide turns

Scheafer has been in the middle
of controversy and was not as

Cowan also touched on
Scheafets sudden resignation,
saying many people have called
it to her attention.
"I have some questions for
him on that." Cowan sald. "I
really believe there is a
compromise candidate that can
be mostly satisfactory to

ADDING ALCOHOL TO THE MIX
Frank Gustafson knows what
Bridgman ls talking about He
witnessed the fateful crash that
killed Donny.
"It's true that people travel
down the road at very high
speeds," said Gustafson, who
moved to Irvine Avenue in 1988.
"But the road is definitely a con-
tributln__s factor in most acci-
dents tllat happen here."
The Newport Beach Police
Department bas done a great
job trying to catch people who
leave bars before they get on the
road, Gustafson said.
"But speed limit Is something
that just cannot be enforced on
this road: he said. "It's almost
impossible because when an of·
6cer is waiting on Heather Lane
with a radar gun the motorist
suddenly spots him and slams
on his brake. That just causes
more problems."
Gustafson sald his frustrations
continue as he still finds himself
running out in the middle of the
night. making 911 calls or hand-
ing out towels to the injured to
wipe down blood.
~But me and my family, we've
gotten used to it," be said.
"Some of these lcids who get into
accidents even come back with a
box of candy to thanlc us."

The accidents seemed sad to
Wlllani Reece, who has lived
near the S-curve for 26 years.
But they also fascinated him,

The Mighty Ducks lost 4-1 to
a dominate Stars in Game 5
Saturday in Dallaa.
The team appeared to be a
little sluggish and goaltender

little tired.

I've been in Giguere's shoes before
and with the amount of physical and
mental strain, there will always be a
night when you are just a little off. For
most athletes being a little off Is barely
noticeable, for an NHL goalie, it is
magnified. One miscue caused by
mental or physical fatigue can and does
directly alter the outcome of any game,
let alone a playoff game.
No doubt a. team rides heavily on ilS
goalie and after watching Giguere this
season and during these playoffs, there
is no doubt he will be at his best for
Game 6. Such is the life of an NHL
goalie. We are a creature of habit and
love being the one to take on the
pressures that the position demands.
No w-cly out, you usually become the
hero or the goat
As I watched the game, it was easy to
see that Dallas had come prepared for
its Last game and were going to leave
everything they had out on the ice.
They were very physical and severaJ of
their key players were finally factors in
the game. Being the top team l1l the
West and one of the best teams in the
league during the year, they needed to
make a statemenL Every player knows
that no maner how successful the team
is during the regular season. it is the
playoffs that counL
If the team is not successful l1l the
postseason, changes are made. fl is that
simple. Dallas certainly felt that sense
of urgency and played its best game of
the series. They gave the Ducks little
room in the neutral w ne to gain speed
on their attacks and forced Anaheim
into more of a dump-and-chase game.
,/ Dumping the puck into the
very-capable bands of Stars goalie
Marty Turco gave Dallas the ability 10
make clean passes and move up the ice
from their own end with control. Wi th
this control, Dallas 6naJly was able to
dent the armor of Giguere and. by
taking a two goal lead after the first
period. were able to dictate the tempo
of the game.
ewpo
back-breaking shon -handed goal late m
the second. Dallas rushed up the ice on
a Ducks turnover when Mike LeOen:'s
stick broke. Rookie Niko Kapanen
attacked Anahelm's P'aul Kartya. who
was playing the point on the power
play. As he drove around K.a.riya for a
shot, Kapanen's shot deflected off of
Kariya's stick and slid under Giguere.
This goal enabled OaLLas to finally feel
like they had a lead that could not be
overcome.
The Ducks, with their never quh sty1e
under coach Mike Babcock. rallied for a
goal in the third by Kariya. He was able
to put home a rebound after a fantastic
play on the part of Ruslan Salei. SaJei
Caked a defender to the ice, right in
front of Marty Turco, and got a quality
scoring chance that Turco stopped with
his block.er. Karlya was on the doorstep
and knocked in his third goal of the
playoffs.
The rally ended there. as Dallas
regained control of the game and
scored its fourth goal of the game
against Martin Gerber. Gerber came on
in relief of Giguere for the start of the
third period. An excellent move that I'm
sure both Giguere and 8abcodc agreed
on. This allowed Giguere some well
deserved rest and a chance to watch
things from the bench that gjves you
different perspective of the team you
are playing against
Sometimes you see a tendency from
there that you didn't from your usual
vantage poml. More imponant. this
does not allow Dallas to feel like they
were able to conquer Giguere by
scoring a few more goals. nus will keep
Dallas wondering If they have gotten to
Giguere or not. For a goatie, doubt in
the minds of the shooter!> is a great
advantage and Giguere sulJ holds that
doubt over the Stars.
The Ducks will look to end the series
on home ice tonight. and use the
crowds' energy for the final push. Lool
forward to seeing you and more
importantly hearing you at the Pond.
