It appears all but certain that Rohrabacher will be engaged in a nasty, potentially costly, fracas for his poUdcal future now that former Rep. Bob Doman has decided to run for Roh.rabacher's seat. 1 write "appears" because It would not astonish me at aU lf Doman pulled out or the race lf he fails to get early traction, both finance- and suppon·wise. More on that later. Doman. as the Pilot has reported, has historically been a remarkably strong fundraiser. While his active campaign oommittee ~ just $36,700 cash on hand according to lhe latest reporu (and $15.SOO in debt for legal fees. a sum he's been canying for a while}, the last time he ran for Congress, bade in 1998, be raised and spent about $3.7 million in his seeond IGSing effon against Rep. Loietta Smchez. (His "Doman for Prealdent" comrofttee - remember when 8-1 Bob ran for prestdentt -ls also carrying $152,000 in debt. Not that the amount matter: at the end of 1996, the committee was saddled with $186.000 in debt, so he dearly Isn't on fire to pay it oft) Roh.rabacher tench to ralle far lea than one-tenth that amount. Rven during the 2002 race, when be bad it retadvely formidable Democratic opponent. he only collected $355,000 and still trounced Gerrie ScbtpU-e with 63% of the vote. (Sch.lpske. remember, had barely lost a Long Beach-area race In 2000 against Rep. Stew Hom. Hom collected 87,266 votes to Schipske's 85,498.) Rohrabacher fared better against Schipske in his reallgJ\ed district, which included her base or Long Beach after the 2000 Census, than he had two years earlier. Rohrabacher's strength in the general election is one shared throughout the House of Representatives. In 2002, for instance, of the 390 Incumbent House members running. 383 won reelection. It's probably safe to say that the strength of btcwnbency is the most common characteristic In the House -maybe It ls ewn a commonalJty that tboae who argue for the need for dvillty unassailable to Democrats (a buttress breached by Sanchez's victory over Doman}, may not be so unusual. EssentJally. every House district at this point is · unconquerable In general elections. Only In the primary does an Incumbent face a true chance of defeat. And that is what Rohrabacher faces now, though my guess is that Doman confronts the tougher challenge. Judging by the response of Pilot readers, Dornan will have to prove he isn't saponaceous. He11 have to raise a bunch of money quickly, probably in time for it to appear on year-end finance reports so he can tout his war chest and argue that he is legitimate. If Doman doesn't muster the needed money by then, perhaps Rohrabacher will have a quiet winter, after all.

Christopher Cox has announced his sponsorship of provisions In the Energy Policy Act of 2003 that would offer tax incentives for the construction of hydrogen fueling stations and , the purchase of fuel ceU vehicles as well as repealing the man- da1ed percentage of ethanol in California's gasoline. The act was passed by the I louse but is helng held up by a Democratic filibuster in lhe Sen- ate, Cox spokeswoman Kate Whit- man said.

Another districl spokesman, Sam Atwood, said that about 80% of alr pollution 1oday comes from mobile sources such as cars. trucks, planes and boats. The district's fleet rules try to combat this pollution. They re- quire operators of Oeets with more than I 5 vehicles -bolh public and private -to buy al· ternauve fuel vehicles when they replace old vehicles or add to their fleets.

Chmtmas is a bit like that 'Inc busiest shopping day of the yrnr is the Friday 11ftcr Thanksgiving. Some ~tores open at 6 a.m. to begin the fr11n1ii: shopping &e<11JOn.

We feel hke the frustrated shopper in the lartoon wr: feel Christmas is al our throats again. lt is nal Christmas, however, that suffers from the businc55 and tasks that lOmc with the season. It 1s the season of Advent that is cht".ited. It leaves us frustratt'd and overwhelmed because our cnergic~ .ire misspent. We prep.ire, but I thmk we prepare only on the fcsuvc level. We forget or don t hilvc the energy or tame -to prepare on the meditative and lOntt'rnplativc level what Advent and Christmas arc about As I think about the season of Advent and what it means in my life, I am •THE FORGIVENESS remmded of the fire victims who lost cvcrytlung they owned last month and how difficult this time of ~ar will be for them. I think of all the families who wiU be ~rimcing the hoiidays for the first tJmc without a loved one because of a death this past year. I think of the scrvic~ men and women who serve our country -no mancr what umc of year, but who will be missing their famiUcs tremendously during Advent. ~ch of these thoughts call me IQ PTa~r. Preparing is usually the word we all affiliate with the Advent season. We read stories and hear sermons about preparation d unng Advent. We arc to prepare for the coming of the Christ • child. This season, I believe our preparation should focus on prilycr. Thcrl' arc many ways to pray. Prayer is important because in prayer we optn ourselves to Cod. In thi~ season of Wiliting, hoping and up«ting, let us do all \hese things prayerfully. We 1ust never know what God will bnng. Rev.

The interstate.-highways have moved our journeys away from America's small rural town. Before the interstate, the highway took }'UU right down Main Street al 25 miles per hour, past the Five and Dime, the Mom and Pop grocery, and the hardware and comer drug store. You didn't have to stop, but you had to slow down. We may not cxpcriena this phenomenon as they do in the Midwest. The interstatrs in Southern California are a talc.en-for-gran tcd part of our freeway syi;tem. Slill, the pnnciplc applies. Whik entertainment-oriented hfc cannot stt. It is about God sending the one for whom we arc all waiting. It is significant the first Christmas happened in a small town, off the anocnt world's equivalent of an interstate. To arrive in a little town of Bethlehem, one had to make an effort. Ouistian autobiographer Frederick Buechner has suggested that the final word of Christmas, after all else has been said and done is, "Adeste Fideles." Come all }'UU faithful, alJ of )'UU who want to be faithful, and all who want to bcliCVt' )'UUT Savior has come.

And •What do those on you gift hst most want from you?" I wonder if the request at the 1op of your List for Santa is the same as mine always is. The same three words answer all questions: "I love you!" The Christmas message is deceptively simple: It 1s God's "I love you!" to humanity. God said it first when the world was made and supremely spoke it to us in Jesus, who is God's Word to us about ourselves. In Christ, we hear God telling us how much we are loved. Our hearts arc so easily hardened by pain, suffering and disappointment; our vision is distorted by betrayal, greed and cruelty. We ~ome cynical and suspicious that the most 1nt11nate of human phrases is only an empty and hollow quotation, ~ertainly not meant for us. Christmas 1s the time when God is revealed as a 1:hild. Our hearts and vision need to become childlike and young again. This happens at Chnstmas, even to the unlikeliest: Scrooge is transformed by the spirit of the season; the Grinch's heart grows "three times that day!" In Lhe midst of the sea.~ons' stores and songs and struggles (a\ the poet Auden said, "We try exery year to love all our relations") hear God's "I love you!" addressed to .. you! It 1s simple: At the heart of everything is the woman and Lhe man and the Ba~.

Monahan, now in his third shift as mayor, is a seasoned politician on che local front who brings business acumen and a solid fiscaJ conservalism to the seal. He has instin11 ional knowledge dating back three terms on the council and should be able to provide a steady hand to a council that still has relatively new members in Councilmen Allan Manseor and Mike Scheafcr. Given the state of California's budget, both mayors are taking over the ceremonial reins of their cities at a difficult fiscal moment. Managing the cities' finances will be just one of the many -mosc probably unforeseen -issues Monahan and Ridgeway will be called upon to handle during the next year. Residents of both cities can sleep well knowing these two men arc in charge. LETTER TO THE EDITOR DUI listings not a real deterrent Weighing in on 1he DUI issue again, I lake readers back to December 200 I when Lhe Daily Pilot published the two letters of mine that foUow. Under the headline of "Why print DUI arrests. hut no other offenses?" I wrote the following: "Would the Daily Pilot please offer some thoughtful explanation that would justify the practice of 'i)'Stematically publishing the names of persons arrested for driving under the influence, and little or no exposure 10 those arrested for other offenses. "Your almanac section of the paper tells us only tl1a1 they are innocent until proven guilcy, but we already knew that. I would hope that your reasons don't include some third-grade > psychobabble that the pubUc exposure could motivate them to curtail their alcohol abuse. It may or may not. *Pechaps you couJd rotate the {'xposure on a monthly basis. In January. you publish the names of those arrested for white-collar crimes. Let's give those sleauballs 15 minutes of fame. P~bruary can feature child molesters arrested, and where '>pace allows. red-light runners. *Everybody gets 10 be embarrassed, or no one does. Olooseone." This Jetter was followed by an editor's Note that stated the Dally Pilot publishes the DUI anes1.11 because It's an offense that can lead 10 deaths. CNo mention of"deterrence" ... which is your cun-ent po itlon.) That editor's note prompted rne to write o follow-up letter that you published as your l.41ter of the Week. My second letter read as roUowa: "I'm utt the Dally Pilot won't 8lJow me to nag them fotc\-er l"fgatdlrig their S)'ltematJc J1l.tbllAhlng ot names or persom arretted for drunk drtvlng to the ncluslon of olher oO'ensca. In my recently publish :d J teer. I hiMJ uked for 1 "thoushttul ~n· to Justify tho ~ce. The edit0'1 note under my letter expla.lnlng that iii t because DUls can lead to deaths is embarrassingly shallow. lf that were the sole reason. then we would ~other lawbreaker...· name-; published. Red-hghl runner; endanger hve'i. big ltme. but you have no sy<.tem fnr embarrassing them in prim. *Lei's face it. Isn't there a moralistic ione when we speak of drunks? Many DUI arre!>tees are addicted to alcohol, a substance that impairs their 1udgment. If newspaper editors suppon the theory that alcoholism is an illnt.'SS, then it isn't a moral Issue. "Soccer moms, students, and other users of residential streeLc, who stonn through intersections under the influence of nothing more than an attitude problem and the self-absorbed belief that the whole world is about them are more deserving of having their morality questioned. ~So keep on publishing your list of those accused of DUls lf you must. Just try gening honest about why you do It" So now. in December 2003, the debate fires up again. f don"t want 10 get carried away by my own views, but as a 30-year attendee of 12-step programs, reUred Crom 25 years of employment in hospital rehab programs. and Conner member of the board of ditectors of the Orange County Cllapter of Alcohol and Drug Dependence, f'U risk an oplnlon and hope It carries some weight. er the DUI OJTeatee Is an alcoboUc. and not nD are, then I wouJd wager that the name In the paper Is just as apt to trigger more drinking that dete-it: more apt to drive them deeper Into their Illness, than recuse them from It.

And. the expeccatJons were very lofty. ·What a fabulous event,· said Carol Wilken. co-chair of the glamorous evening. •Now. what do we do next year to top thlsr For at least the put decade. Wllken's sentiment has been expressed year In and year our. CandlelJght has become the social and charluible event setting the standard for all O.C. events throughout the year. lt's the platform B.W. COOK upon which the most creative hostesse are called upon to create magic. And if you are a chair or co-chair of Candlelight, you are the social equivalent of a top CEO, army general, Washington politician and psycho-anatyst all rolled Into one. Actually, you might add wizard to the mix. The task is enormous. Yet, It always comes off in great tyle. The culminallon of a full year's work. Credit In 2003 goes to the lovely Elizabeth nemey, wife of Tom Tiemey. The Tiemey famUy are ardent Cenrer supporters and donors. F.lizaberh Tierney was aided in her campaign by Wilken, joined by her hui.band, Kent Wilken. and Pat RyplmkJ, escorted by husband, Alan RyplnskJ fhe team worked wonders. bringing 111 significant donor underwriting from prominent local citizens and corporations. Donors Carole and Robert Pollman shared the $100,000 table with event chairs Flizabeth and Tom Tierney.

" hostess Elizabeth Tlemey told the crowd. Laughter from the a'!dJence of some five hundred of the best·dre~ed in O.C. confirmed Tierney's observalion. Actually, the process begins In the late summer u the designer salons preview winter gowns for women and formal suits for gentlemen all aJmed at the Candlelight crowd.

Top salespeople keep tabs to Insure that no one wears the a.a.me gown. This l.s serious social maneuvering, not for the faint of hean. It is also a night to display fine jewels. Something of an Oscar show on a smaller, more personal plane. The diamonds and pearls are part of a dazzling show of art, fantasy. success and showmanship.

Two of the best-dressed ladies of the night were ShJela Soneiuhlne, wife of Ygal Sonenahlne, and Sally Crodett, wife of Randy Crockett. Both women are always fashionably and tai.1efully attired, setting an elegant standard for o.c. After plenty of ~ocial jockeying and a coclctail or cwo. the crowd was ushered into SegerMrom Hall. and was seated in the center of the orchestra \CCtion.

Mathis performed the next nlght for Candlelight Encore as well. as the second Ouistmas fundraiser held in Founders Hall. also a significant charitable event for the local performing arts center.

By Jeana Kawamura ~= w ith a purpose of ~" acquainting our '· children with part of their ancestry. we "' headed to Japan in August An invitation from friends living 1•"' and working in Beijing broadened our trip to include a side visil there as weU. When landing in Tokyo's 1 Narita Airport, our daughter " said that she knew she wasn't in the U.S. anymore as the runway was panially lined with n boxwood hedge. We easily exchanged our Japan Rail vouchers for passes that enabled us to travel in Japan for :i two weeks, including on the train from Narita into Tokyo. In Tokyo, we visited traditioflal sites such as the zvr lmperiaJ Palace, which lies in 1 the heart of the city. We also saw the impressive Meiji Shrine, which is dedicated to the spirit of Japae's first modern emperor, Meiji, and his wife, the Empress Shoken. The Akihabara di<.trict It is also lcnown as "electric city" because of the many elettrornc havens for shoppers and the Sony Building, which has Sony's latest electronics. With the aid of the efficient train sy'>tem. we went from area to area for lunch or dinner Kyoto provided U'> wnh an appreciation for the spiritual world in Japan. We enjoyed a , Jong walk up the Philosopher's f Trail, stopping at various temples along the way. Mo't of the time, we had these temples to ourselves. One evening, we encountered a festival along the river with plentiful food, games and crafts. After walking by the festiVlties. we had a trad111onal dinner overlooking the c;pmted celebration. l think most of the other patrons at the restaurant ll got quite a kick out of watching r• us try to keep our legs still and N folded under the low table. After the sightseeing of Kyoto and Tokyo. we headed to the Century I lotel In Matsu~hima Bay for two days of relaxation. Matsushima is considered one of the three most beautiful sites 1 ln Japan. ft certainly did not disappoint. We had fun walking around several small nearby islands, exploring the city and touring the beautiful temple and museum. There were only a handful of Westerners In the entire town. and none at our hotel. We communicated by pointing most of the tlme. Rested, we headed next to Nikko. The many temples nestled ln the forest were much Put a few words to work for you. Call the Daily Pilot more ornately decorated than any of the previow. one., we had encountered.

Their love of culture, poliucs and food was contagious. We V1s1ted Tian'anmcn Square. which 1s the largest public square in the world. We also took a pedl-cab tour through the hutongs. which are the ancient traditional alley<; in Beijing with quadrangle shaped homes on either !>ide We ate Tib~an food, Peking duck roasted in old wood burning ovens and picnicked on the Great Wall.
