<B>Keeping the magic alive</B> <BR>Woman's 'Nutcracker' collection more than just toys. By Jennifer Parsons for The Pasadena Star-News<P><BR>WHITTIER -- Betty Campa's home gets a little nutty around Christmastime. The 72-year-old Whittier resident has about 280 pieces of "The Nutcracker" memorabilia -- from rugs to candlesticks to tree ornaments -- spread from one end of her living room to the other. <P>"It's getting to be an obsession. I like to just sit here and admire them and rearrange them," she said. "If I go to the thrift shop and I find one that's got a broken nose or shoe, I buy him and repair it. My collection just grows and grows." <P><A HREF="http://www.pasadenastarnews.com/Stories/0,1002,542%257E296108,00.html" TARGET=_blank><B>click for more</B></A>
