Brewery to have fundraiser for 2008 Olympic hopeful
 U.S. Paralympic team member Nick Scandone is hoping to earn a spot to compete in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. U.S. Paralympic team member Nick Scandone, diagnosed in 2002 with the degenerative condition known as Lou Gehrig's disease, is focused on gaining a berth to compete in the Beijing Olympics in 2008. Scandone is sailing in qualifying regattas on the East Coast but will be back in town next week in time to attend a fundraiser in his honor at the Newport Beach Brewing Company. The event will be from 6 to 10 p.m. Tuesday, and the brewery will donate 15% of the night's proceeds to help Scandone in his quest. For more information, call (949) 644-1480 or (949) 675-8449.
