FEELING WANTED: He’s not sure what a few extra words of encouragement will do, but Supervisor William G. Steiner will introduce a resolution the supervisors are expected to pass today supporting efforts to keep the Los Angeles Rams at Anaheim Stadium--in Steiner’s district. . . . The team is an important business and economic draw to the county, the resolution stresses. “There’s a sense of pride in having a National Football League team in Orange County, not just in Anaheim, but in Orange County,” Steiner says.

HAPPY REPLAY: There will be sad moments Wednesday afternoon as the nation pays its last respects to Richard Nixon. But in the evening, a look at some happier times for the Nixons will be reprised on South County’s Dimension Cable by “Insight Orange County” host Jerald Lasenski. . . . At 7:25, he’s rebroadcasting an hourlong documentary on the building of the Richard Nixon Library & Birthplace in Yorba Linda, plus events at its dedication. Says Lasenski: “I’m doing it because I just admired the man so much.”

BELL RINGER: Basketball broadcaster Dick Vitale has such high energy, some may think he’s on nonstop coffee. Maybe it’s burritos. . . . Vitale has just signed with Irvine-based Taco Bell for a commercial--which starts running this week--to introduce its new seven-layer chicken and beef burrito. . . . Vitale plays a bus driver steering his team of seven-foot basketball players to a burrito stop at Taco Bell.

MARTHA’S WOMEN: If you’re already complaining about $7 for a movie--sans popcorn--would you pay $10 to watch a documentary? Even with Jodie Foster narrating? . . . The county’s Homeless Issues Task Force is counting on just that. “It Was a Wonderful Life,” plays at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Orange at that price tonight at 7. Foster chronicles the lives of six former middle-class women who wound up homeless. Your money goes toward helping the Martha House, a homeless women’s shelter in Orange.
