Newport Beach Related News

Cranky, cranky...

The OC Register had some Newport-centric news items of interest:

A Newport Beach lifeguard crosses the English Channel, just to say he could. Congrats.

The outside of the Port Theater may be spared, only the inside will get gutted and changed.

Some Newport Beach parents are suing Harbor Day Elementary School. In addition to the $14k/year for tuition, plus the numerous thousands it costs to get a plaque of appreciation, parents expect the administrators to properly send off paperwork to High School. Sounds reasonable.

And now, to celebrate the New White Elephant, the Daily Pilot has a section dedicated to discussing it exclusively (although it was pretty neat to get a mention in one of the articles). Nice picture of Bill Ficker (I think it's Bill Ficker) and Mayor Pro-Tem Ed Selich playing tug of war over the City Hall. Although I think having Mayor Rosansky and Councilman Curry in a boxing ring would have been a bit funnier.
