Einstein’s Mistress Albert Einstein’s Affair With a Russian Spy Started on the East End By Dan Rattiner It’s pretty well known by locals here that Albert Einstein enjoyed a summer on the East End. The year was 1939, he was 60 years old and well past his most creative period where his thinking turned some of Newton’s Laws of Physics upside down. He had come out from Princeton that year when the school year ended. He rented a small cottage with a screened-in front porch on Nassau Point in Southold, right on the water, and he spent most of his time sailing his little 15-foot sailboat in the Bay and otherwise enjoying the country air. He was accompanied by his longtime secretary Miss Dukas, and he was happy to entertain family and friends from time to time there. David Rothman, the owner of Rothman’s Department Store on Main Street in Southold, became a friend of Einstein that summer and he later wrote a wonderful memoir about it. Einstein came to play his violin as part of a classical music string quartet that Rothman and some of his friends held every Thursday evening in one another’s homes. Sometimes Rothman would come to work to find Einstein taking a nap, asleep on a sofa in the little office at the back of the store. Einstein had just stopped by to say hello. He told Rothman he envied the gentle family life that Rothman enjoyed—Rothman’s wife and son worked in the store. (Rothman’s grandson and his great grandson work there today.) Einstein had never been a big success with relationships with women. He also had not been particularly Dan Rattiner’s second memoir, IN THE HAMPTONS TOO: Further Encounters with Farmers, Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires and Celebrities, is available in hardcover wherever books are sold. The first memoir, IN THE HAMPTONS, published by Random House, is available in paperback. A third memoir, STILL IN THE HAMPTONS, will be published in May.

good with his children. He had been almost totally focused on his work, and indeed he continued in that manner, not only out at the cottage that summer, but right up until the end of his life. An account of Einstein’s summer at Nassau Point gets a brief mention in the fascinating biography of the great scientist Einstein: His Life and Universe by Walter Isaacson, published five years ago, and in reading this biography, I learned that this was not the only time Einstein had been on the East End. Einstein had left Germany in 1933, forced out by a nighttime raid on his home by Nazi thugs shortly after Hitler came to power. The thugs were looking for weapons, they said. They found a kitchen knife. They’d be back. Einstein and his wife at the time, Elsa, got the message. There was no place for Jews in Nazi Germany. They left on the next boat for America, fortunately for them. If they had not, they would surely have died in the concentration camps a few years later. Einstein took a position at Princeton and would remain there for the rest of his life. Summers, with the academic year over, he
would go up with his sailboat to Saranac Lake in upstate New York, or as he did in 1939, come out to Southold. Why Southold? No one really knows. But it’s possible he chose Southold for that one year because of its isolation. He and Elsa (and Einstein’s secretary Miss Dukas) had made many friends in Saranac Lake in the years prior. But now many of Einstein’s friends in Germany had been arrested and in December 1936, his wife had died in Princeton of heart and kidney problems. These things affected him greatly. It would be just him in Southold with loyal Miss Dukas taking care of him. For the next summer, however, it was back to Saranac Lake. (From Princeton, Einstein had written Rothman to thank him for his friendship and hospitality and to ask him to arrange for his little sailboat to be shipped there.) Einstein’s other visit to the East End came about in the summer of 1941, six months before Pearl Harbor and after almost two years of the war raging in Europe. It came about because Einstein, over his grief, had once again fallen in love. It had come about like this. As you might have imagined, the arrival of the great scientist from Germany to Princeton was a great coup for that institution. His remarkable work, as I said, had been done years before when he was in his late 20s while working at a Swiss Patent Office. He was one of the most famous men in the world. And Princeton often showcased Einstein in one way or another, something which Einstein secretly enjoyed as long as it didn’t get out of hand. In 1935, the University commissioned the great Russian sculptor Sergei Konenkov, to make a statue of Einstein. Einstein would sit for the early sketches in his home for Konenkov. As it happened, Konenkov arrived with his (continued on page 14)

wife Margarita Konenkova for these sessions, and, as it happened, sparks flew between Margarita and Albert. According to Isaacson’s account, it appears that Margarita was quite the bohemian lady in her time. She was well-traveled, amusing, a lawyer who spoke five languages and very smart. Her husband, apparently, let her do what Margarita was going to do. Which eventually included an invitation for Einstein. How would he like to come out to a house on eastern Long Island with her and some friends for the weekend? Sergei would be busy with his work in the city. But they’d have a picnic and swim and have a dinner with her friends—who had been invited out to someone’s summer home—and who were fine if Einstein were to come along. According to Isaacson, Margarita was surprised when Einstein accepted. At the time, she was 46. He was 63. And so they went. The house was along the shore in Setauket on Long Island Sound and the result of this weekend was the beginning of an affair Einstein had with her that lasted for four years, right up until the time that the war ended. Indeed, there are photographs of her and Einstein taken back up in Saranac Lake where Einstein apparently felt comfortable introducing her around as his new companion in subsequent years. As it happened, in the late 1990s, some researchers came upon a treasure trove of love letters that Einstein wrote to Margarita after they broke up—because she had returned to Moscow. They were passionate letters of how he missed her. By that time Einstein was 66. The fires still burned brightly.
In another section of Isaacson’s book, Margarita Konenkova comes up again. It has to do with the attention that Einstein, the celebrity, had come to receive from the FBI. Even during the war, when the Russians and the Americans were supposedly friends, the FBI was monitoring Einstein because they believed, erroneously, he might be working with Russian agents against the United States. Isaacson reports that after the war years, it was found that the FBI had been tailing Einstein, making reports about him and otherwise keeping him under surveillance from the time of his arrival in 1933 to his death in 1955. As you know, FBI files have now been opened to the general public because of “Freedom of Information” requirements. Isaacson tells us that the files on Einstein totaled 1,427 pages all stamped “confidential” and stored in 14 boxes. None of it in any way confirmed that Einstein had had any illicit contact with the Russians. But, says Isaacson, the FBI missed something that was going on right in front of their noses. In 1945, Einstein spent an hour visiting the Soviet Vice Consul at his office in Manhattan. The Vice Consul, Ravel Mikhailov, was indeed a Russian spy. Later, after the war, another Soviet spy named Pavlov Sudoplatov wrote a memoir saying that Margarita reported to him with a code name Lukas. There is nothing in any of the files about Einstein’s visit to the Vice Consul. Nor was there any real explanation in Isaacson’s book about the visit, except to suggest that the visit was just incidental. In all Einstein’s writings, including in his love letters to Konenkova, he remarks that he is no
fan of Stalin’s Soviet. Having learned all this from Isaacson’s book, I thought to research this further to see if I could find out why Einstein had visited the Soviet official. With Google’s help, I think I found out. Konenkova developed a yearning during those war years to return to Moscow. Whatever the reason, she did visit with her superior, Vice Consul Mikhailov, who told her he wouldn’t provide her the papers that would allow her to return to Moscow. She pleaded with him. And finally he relented, but on one condition. He would do it if she could arrange for him to meet the famous Albert Einstein. And so that’s why Einstein met with him—to help his girlfriend go home. I found Isaacson’s book about Einstein to be one of the most powerful reading experiences ever. After finishing that book, I bought his new biography, which remains as No. 1 best seller on The New York Times list today, which is his biography of Steven Jobs. But I never got over thinking about Einstein and Southold—it was that summer (1939) that at the urging of several prominent scientists who came out to Southold that Einstein signed a letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt urging him to create a research facility to invent an atomic bomb before the Germans did—and I never got over the 1,427 pages of reports in 14 files that the FBI collected about this man. And so, having finished this book, I decided to contact the FBI, cite the freedom of information (continued on page 16)

God Angry If East Hampton Won’t Do It, God Will Take It On Himself By Dan Rattiner A powerful winter storm smashed up Georgica Beach in East Hampton last weekend, with dunes being torn out, sand washed away and rocks exposed. This is the same beach where Molly Zweig, an oceanfront West End Road home owner just to the west of the road end, installed metal poles on the beach in front of her home last September with the intention of fencing it off. Never mind that nobody in 20 miles in either direction has ever built hard structures on the beach. It’s against the law to block beach strollers or sunbathers from using a part of a
public beach. The beach is for the people. The current storm at the beach last week is considered by many people to be the wrath of God, inasmuch as the Village of East Hampton has yet to come up with an effective plan to take down Zweig’s fencing, which, as it turns out, is still standing after four months of breaking the law. God has told these many people that he is tired of waiting for the Village to act. The law is clear. You can’t build on the beach. What are they waiting for? Apparently the village attorneys are waiting for some kind of legal clearance from higher ups that would show that
the laws involving regulations on the beach override the considerations of a homeowner who lives in a house where, because of erosion, part of the waterfront property line is now on a public beach. Practically all beachfront property lines everywhere in the Hamptons are on the public beach. Why are these metal poles still out there at Georgica? God thundered. He then ordered this storm to come in and take them out. But whoever executed this order screwed up. The crashing sea came in and took out the beach (continued on next page)
Shots Fired in Morton National Wildlife Refuge? By David Lion Rattiner Last week the office of Dan’s Papers was flooded with calls and e-mails from concerned residents who live near the Elizabeth A. Morton National Wildlife Refuge outside Sag Harbor. The complaint was that they heard gunfire that seemed to be coming from the preserve, possibly from hunters. It was quite dramatic, with one woman even speculating that due to the recession, people were going to great lengths to get food and resorting to hunting. That, my friends, is a crazy thought. Nobody is hunting in the woods with a rifle or shotgun because it is cheaper than buying food in the grocery store. The cost of gasoline to get to the hunting site, the cost of a shotgun shell or rifle bullet and the cost of getting a hunting license far outweigh the cost of buying food
in a grocery store. So no, nobody is out there hunting due to the recession. They are out there hunting because it is one of the greatest American pastimes. According to AllStateParks.com, the Morton refuge preserves a 1.5 mile-long peninsula that separates Little Peconic and Noyac Bays. The refuge is arguably the most picturesque of the Long Island refuges. It’s deer hunting season folks, and if you live on the East End of Long Island, you may be hearing a few gunshots or two. While it is very much illegal to hunt on the Morton Wildlife Refuge, if you own private property near the refuge and are a hunter, hunting on it is completely legal during hunting season, and shotgun season for deer is during the month of January. According to the New York State Department
of Environmental Conservation, 85% of the state of New York is privately-owned and over 90% of all hunters will hunt on private lands during the hunting seasons. Big game hunting is still available on Long Island with an abundant population of white-tailed deer in much of eastern Suffolk County. Public hunting is a needed management tool as serious depredation problems occur annually in agricultural fields, nurseries, and to many gardens and ornamental plants. Some areas also have problems with car-deer collisions. I don’t think there is a single person in the Hamptons who hasn’t had to deal with dodging a deer while driving. We are currently in the shotgun hunting (continued on page 20)

act, and ask them to release the files they have about ME. I had never thought to do this before. I have friends who have made this request, and who have found out all sorts of things about themselves from the effort. The FBI, particularly under Herbert Hoover during those years, was all over the place looking for subversives for years and years. As for me, I was born in August 1939, in the middle of that very time that Einstein was sailing on Peconic Bay. In the 1960s I founded Dan’s Papers as a summer newspaper, but in the winter I was very active in the antiwar movement in New York City. I was, in 1965, one of the founders of New York City’s first underground newspaper, The East Village Other. I’ve traveled widely, including to the Soviet Union and East Germany in the 1980s, and I’ve carried signs in demonstrations from
God
time to time, the first time when I was a freshman in college, in front of a Woolworth’s in Rochester, New York where we marched against a segregated lunch counter. One surely would think there would be SOMETHING. A secretary secured the forms I needed to apply to get my files. There was no fee involved. I mailed them in, now not to the FBI, but to the Department of Homeland Security FOIA Requester Service Center in Lee’s Summit, Missouri, which handles all this for the FBI. And here is the reply I got. “We have completed a search of our Central Index System (CIS) and Computer Linked Applications Information Management System (CLAIMS). No records responsive to your request were located. If you have reason to believe that responsive records do exist, and you can provide us with additional information, we will conduct another search.”
I’m clean. I can hardly believe it. Seventytwo years on this Earth and nothing I have done has come to the attention of the FBI. I haven’t been even a blip on their radar. It’s all been a big waste of time. Some NOTES. Albert Einstein’s visit to Southold is told in the second of my memoirs, IN THE HAMPTONS TOO, and you can pick up a copy or buy it on Kindle to get that account. Also, beginning at 6:30 p.m. on February 28, there will be a celebration of The East Village Other at 20 Cooper Square, 6th Floor presented by NYU, with a party to follow. There’s a panel I will be on. The celebration is called “Blowing Minds: The East Village Other and the Rise of Underground Comix and the Alternative Press.” We’ll check to see if the FBI sends anybody.
Attorneys has now shifted. Earlier, it appears that they were worried that Zwieg would sue if bulldozers go down to the beach inside her property line to tear out her fence. Now they are worrying about how to sue God for his malfeasance, more specifically and to the point how a process server can serve God a summons. Somebody’s got to pay for the damage, old and new, to the road end. If they leave the summons on a rock in a field, is that good enough? God meanwhile, having suspended the errant building contractor angel who caused the storm
on the wrong side of the road end of Georgica Beach for 30 days without pay, is now planning a second storm. This time they will get it right. Dan’s Papers, meanwhile, stands alert to new developments and as they occur will immediately pass them on to you the readers.

more to the EAST of the road end, not to the WEST of the road end. This complicates things. Prior to this storm, the Village, concerned about the damaged road end from the storm in September, had approached the Town about how to pay for repairs there, which approached the County which approached the State which approached the Feds. About $50,000 was rounded up, about 87% from our bloated, bureaucratic infested Obama-run federal government, and work was scheduled to begin next week, but now THIS. Work in the busy legal offices of the Village
AS WE GO TO PRESS: Last Friday God got it right. The fence, at least the east and south sides of it, have now been entirely washed away. Now there is almost nothing left to fight over.

A Giant Story Trying to Bend Time is Something You Should Not Try at Home By Dan Rattiner As you know, here in the 21st century, it is possible to bend time. It’s a tricky business, best left to the professionals, but when no professional is available then you have to do it personally. Thus, at our house last Sunday we made up a plan. There was my wife and I, my wife’s Aunt Louise, and Aunt Louise’s grown son and daughter-in-law from Knoxville. The matter at hand was dinner and two football games. Everyone there was interested in dinner.
Everyone except Louise’s daughter-in-law was interested in the football games. Louise’s daughter-in-law in the event slept sitting up facing the TV through the games. I, on the other hand, as the man of the house, had the remote. Here was the plan for the reality bending. Since we’d be out all afternoon, I would set to record at 1 p.m. the Houston Texans playing the Baltimore Ravens, which would be over at four. I would also record the Giants versus Green Bay game, which began at 4:30 p.m.
This is the one we were particularly interested in. We’d watch the first half beginning at six, then break for dinner at halftime, then, with both games long concluded, watch the last half of the Giants-Green Bay game and then, if we had time or interest, watch the earlier game. Of course, during this time watching football, since we were bending time, we would accept no phone calls or look for no information about what happened at the games in those days of yore when they actually took place.

THE SONGS WHEN CANDIDATES WERE BORN By Stacy Dermont It’s a trend on facebook to look up what the #1 song was at the time of your birth and then share it with your “facebook friends.” I know this because my husband told me. I don’t do facebook. My husband has a Phd. He teaches graduate students arcane subjects like music theory. He’s a freakin’ Guggenheim Scholar. I once caught him gathering imaginary pumpkins online because a facebook friend double-kooky dared him or some crap. I will never let him live that down. I’m not on facebook because I don’t like having my picture taken, let alone sharing particularly bad photos of myself with the masses. Also, I have a life. So, apparently, people on facebook go on and on about the uncoolness, i.e. hilarity, of their given “birth song.” Well, duh. Nothing 20 to 30 years old has come back into everyday fashion
yet and The Captain and Tennille never will. (Sorry, “Muskrat Lovers.”) My overeducated husband was waxing on about the lameness of his birth song and then that of his friend from sleep away camp. It made me just about nod off over dinner. Then the crazy bastard was watching Mitt Romney “bad lip reading” on his laptop in bed when I was ready to go to sleep. I did not sign on for this. But husbands are so cute at this age, he kind of inspired me. I’ve hit on a highly scientific test to determine if one’s birth song holds any meaning. Though maybe this is like when a psychic reads your horoscope and tells you that you need to put more air in your tires and you think, “Wow, that’s amazing.” But then you realize that it’s really just good car maintenance advice. (And before you shell out $50 for a reading, bear in mind, everyone
was thinking about one of their grandmothers last week and everyone’s planets are always aligning with some damn thing in outer space.) Let us, fellow travelers, take a look at the birth songs of the current spate of American Presidential candidates. I am not making this up. And I did not look any songs up until the moment I committed this to paper, here goes: Barack Obama: “Tossin’ and Turnin’” by Bobby Lewis. This is still a fun dance song but no doubt Obama has had more than his share of sleepless nights. Willard Mitt Romney: Ted Weems and Orchestra’s “Heartaches.” And I quote, “My loving you meant only heartaches. Your kiss was such a sacred thing to me. I can’t believe it’s just a burning memory.” Pretty weemsly. (continued on page 20)

through altered time like this requires close concentration to not be able to find out what happened. We began. Myself, Louise’s son Jim and daughter-in-law Kathy arranged ourselves on the couch. My wife and Aunt Louise sat in club chairs on either side. We were watching highdef on a 48-inch Samsung screen. The best, though no 3D. And I had the remote. I turned on the TV and we successfully watched the first half of the Giants-Green Bay game, which seemed to indicate this was going to be a very close contest. The score was 20-10 Giants, at halftime. We woke up the daughterin-law and had dinner in the dining room. At eight, we were back in our seats. The second half had begun. The game was getting very interesting. Green Bay, which had won 15 of their 16 games during the regular season, was clearly the better, more well-oiled team, especially with their sensational quarterback Aaron Rogers. But the underdog Giants kept muscling their way to stay in the game. They caused and recovered fumbles, they sacked the quarterback, they wrestled the ball out of the hands of Green Bay receivers. What a game. As the game slipped into the fourth quarter, however, I made what appeared to be a dreadful mistake. Only three hours are set aside in the program for these games. You can record them, but you must also remember to record the programs that come after the game because often the games can go as long as four and a half hours and the network will pre-empt all the programming if it does. And I know this.

Speculation is that he was out here visiting Sarah Palin in that town. Remember, she ran for Vice President before. Maybe that’s the idea again, to give the candidacy a little pizazz. FOR THOSE WHO BELIEVE IN FATE The number of riders who used the subway system this week was 9,999, as you can see above. This is exactly the same number that used the subway system last week. See last year’s newsletter. This may be more than a coincidence. Who knows? In any case, last week, the 9,999 riders took the subway 86,412 miles while this week, the 9,999 riders took the subway 100,428 miles. The feeling up at headquarters is that the very cold weather has caused the subway riders to stay on the trains longer to keep warm.

COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE People have been complaining about the fact that there is a 15-minute wait between trains. We are addressing this this week with a new program. I have ordered the number of cars on each train reduced from eight to seven, but we’ll be adding a new train because we will run them closer together so they take just 13 minutes between them. Consider it our “less cars more often” push. We hope this helps.

Breaking News Moving Bay Street By Dan Rattiner The executives who run the Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor called a Town Meeting last Thursday to tell people where things sit involving what happens to Bay Street in the coming years. The place was packed. What the execs said was that for certain financial reasons, they have to move from their present location on Long Wharf. But, because the Theatre is such an economic boost to Sag Harbor, they want to stay in Sag Harbor. On the other hand, they want to decide where to go in the next 60 days and at the moment, the best offer they have is to move into the soon -to-be-abandoned Parrish Art Museum on Jobs Lane in Southampton. So if anybody wants them to stay in Sag Harbor, they better get a move on. Anybody think of putting Bay Street in the old Stella Maris Catholic School? It’s just two blocks from Main Street and its gym has a 20-foot ceiling, which could be made into a theater.

season for deer. The shotgun season is closely regulated with special town permits and written landowner permission required of each hunter, in addition to his or her big game license. Many state parks offer waterfowl, small game and big game hunting. This includes Montauk Point as well as Hither Hills State Park, which allows archery. The January firearms deer-hunting season begins on the Monday following the first Saturday in January and continues through the last weekday of the month. The season is restricted to weekdays only. With all of that being said, it is also quite possible that the gunshots that were heard had to do with people shooting targets, and NOT hunting. In New York State, the laws are very clear when it comes to firearm ownership, although not a lot of people know them. It is
Candidates
very much illegal to own a handgun without a proper license, but in New York, it is perfectly legal to own a shotgun or rifle without a permit. According to NYFirearms.com, there is no state license requirement for the possession of a rifle or shotgun, so long as the rifle has barrel(s) at least 16 inches in length and the shotgun has barrel(s) at least 18 inches in length. It is unlawful to discharge a firearm so that the load passes over any part of a public highway. It is a crime to possess any rifle, shotgun or handgun in or upon a building or grounds, used for educational purposes, that’s any school, college or university. It is lawful, however, to possess a rifle, shotgun or handgun in or upon the forestry lands, wherever located, owned and maintained by the State University of New York College of Environmental Science and Forestry, without
the written authorization of such educational institution. It is unlawful to discharge a firearm within 500 feet of a dwelling, farm building or farm structure actually occupied or used, school building, school playground, or occupied factory or church. It is unlawful to willfully discharge any firearm either in a public place, or in any place where there is any person to be endangered thereby. These laws are in effect for obvious reasons. But one thing that they do not forbid is to shoot at targets so long as you are 500 feet away from any building. This is also true for firing over water, but it is illegal to use lead shells, steel must be used. That’s why every once in a while, you might be in certain parts of Springs in East Hampton and see a pick-up truck with a few guys shooting at targets over the bay. It’s legal. Happy hunting with what’s left of the season to you hunters out there.
“Homosapien.” Okay, I made this one up. Ron Paul: I couldn’t find this song listed on the Internet. I had to pull up an image on microfiche of a wax cylinder on which Thomas Edison describes a woodcut alluding to the song “Ah! Sweet Mystery of Life” from the operetta Naughty Marietta, recorded by Jeanette MacDonald and Nelson Eddy on Pony Express Records. Back then hit songs were tracked by sheet music sales. This proves a point I’ve been making about Paul’s candidacy: HE’S FREAKIN’ OLD. I’m not saying he’s not mentally fit—though a
new study demonstrates that mental capacity begins to significantly diminish in the 40s. Where was I? Where am I? Oh yeah, Ron Paul will be 77 come November. Many people thought John McCain was too old to run back when he was SEVENTY. I’m just sayin’, serving as leader of the free world is a highly stressful occupation. Has Paul had a comprehensive physical recently? Does he have a pulse? Do his many young supporters know how uncool his birth song is? Omg, lol, it could totally F him up! (:

By Nanci E. LaGarenne What makes a person raised in a traditional family, headed down one path, veer from that road, and have such empathy for a people in a far away land, spending the better part of his life, trying to right a very terrible wrong? For Dr. Blake Kerr, local physician, his eyes were opened to the atrocities that have befallen the people of Tibet, a genocide no one could witness and be the same after, ever again. It all started when as a student at Dartmouth, his friend and fellow student, John Ackerly, suggested rock climbing in Peru, for college credit. Why not? Going to Everest would follow, an innocent though arduous trip, without equipment, “tough overland travel,” that fulfilled a dream of seeing Tibet. The trip would compel him to return to Lhasa, the capital, again and again, trying to help a situation most people would run from and never look back. That is not who Blake Kerr is. He was born in 1958, in Ithaca, New York, to a “very Catholic” mother, an artist and sculptor based in Springs, and a Protestant lawyer father, he would lose at age 15. He has two siblings. Kerr’s brother is a University professor and his sister teaches at a Montessori school. Hardly radical professions. But neither is being a doctor in a small town. That was Plan B. Kerr’s Plan A was to become a marine biologist. He loved the sciences and he loved school. A change of heart led him to “go to medical school and maybe marry a doctor.” Eventually he hoped to open a holistic clinic with juice fasting and healing. The clinic has not come to pass, but “I still hold the dream in my soul,” says Kerr. He reached young adulthood in Springs, left for Dartmouth and became a doctor. And he read books on Tibet, like John Avedon’s In Exile from the Land of Snows, and Heinrich Harrer’s Seven Years In Tibet. A spark was lit. It was 1987, he was in Tibet, which was open for tourism that year, but he saw much more than the sights. Chinese was the only language allowed in the schools. Buddhist monks not allowed to practice their religion, were reduced to tour guides. But it was the demonstrations in Lhasa that would compel him to act. Public executions were commonplace. The tongues of Tibetan people were cut out. In a large stadium, people were forced to witness victims being shot in the head and the family charged for the bullet. Kerr’s presence there, as a Westerner, would cost him. His buddy, John Ackerly, had a “Free Tibet” sticker on his backpack. This was a crime. He and Kerr were hauled off the street and interrogated for two days by the Chinese police. A stroke of luck, a couple headed for Hong Kong, who they met in the hotel, took the story with them. Kerr and Ackerly escaped in the middle of the night, through a window. They had photographs Ackerly took, footage of
N. LaGarenne
Who’s Here
Dr. Blake Kerr
“jing jong,” or “The Western Treasure House,” due to its vast uranium, gold, and of course, its strategic military location, for launching nuclear weapons, and its close proximity to India. With utmost respect for this spiritual leader, Kerr would hear his words and remember the violence and suffering in Lhasa. “…it changed my life. The events I witnessed, opened up the tangential path.” Back in the Hamptons, he would not rest. The memory of stories of forced abortions and sterilizations, haunted Kerr. Babies killed upon their birth. He had to go back and do something. First he would go to Washington, and speak at universities, with Ackerly. They talked about Tibetan refugees in India, whose stories they heard. But who would believe these refugees? They needed hard evidence. He would return to Tibet in 1991, ’92, ’93 and ’99, armed with a video camera. His first wife, now the mother of his two teenage children, would join him. Both were human rights activists; but first they would get engaged at the Potala Palace, the former home of the Dalai Lama, before his exile to India. His present wife, who hails from Thailand, has not been to Tibet with him, as he is persona non grata there. Years of documentation of the atrocities to the Tibetan people that Kerr collected, was recently given to a judge, as testimony at the trial of Chinese officials, in the Spanish National Court, in Madrid. CAT, Comite de Apoyo al Tibet, launched the campaign, which led to the trial. Under the principle of Universal Jurisdiction, which states: “every country has a moral and legal obligation to stop genocide. It is a crime against humanity.” Twenty-five kilos of evidence was accepted by the judge from Kerr. What will be the result? Time will tell. He notes, “It is very hard to try heads of state for crimes against humanity.” The words of his late father speak to Kerr, “Find a way to persevere.” Does he have a mantra? I asked him. “When an obstacle is placed in front of you, find a way around it. Go over the wall, build a tunnel. But find a way.” His way, is to record for all posterity, what he has seen and learned through his book on Tibet, Sky Burial and through a documentary film, The Angry Skies, shown at the Hamptons Film Festival. He has also written a soon-tobe-published book of the same title, about the murder of two million people under the Khmer Rouge regime. Here in the Hamptons, Dr. Kerr, enjoys beach walks, growing vegetables, and being in nature with his family. “Spirit in the face of adversity is what the Tibetan people taught me. Spirituality 101.” Whether there is truly a “shift” happening, and an age of enlightenment coming, remains to be seen. But the alternative has done no one any good. “We have the potential for enlightenment,” he says. “It has to come from within.” As they say in Sanskrit: Satya-Yuga, the age of truth and goodness.
“Spirit in the face of adversity is what the Tibetan people taught me. Spirituality 101.” the beatings and stories of the tortures. The violence was not over. The Jokhang Temple was the scene of executions. Monks were dragged inside and shot. The streets were in an uproar again. Police were firing into the crowd from rooftops. Kerr documented 12 deaths that took place in front of him. He tried to save two young boys, one only 10, who had been shot. He died. The other boy was beaten in the head and face so badly by a policeman’s truncheon, he would die before Kerr could save him. The blood on his hands would not wash away for days. He lost his mind. The crowd of Tibetans turned on the police. It was AK-47s versus rocks. Impossible. “There was a brief moment of euphoria,” Kerr says, “the police turned and ran.” The next day, there were door-to-door interrogations. A torture spree ensued. Kerr and Ackerly set up a medical underground. Then, over the airwaves, on Xinhua radio, Kerr heard his own name. He was now a fugitive. He and Ackerly would make their way to Katmandu and finally Nepal, where they would meet the Dalai Lama. He would learn of the middle path, or madhyam marg, a Buddhist belief that the Dali Lama says is the answer. Tibet does not need independence, per se, he says, but it cannot tolerate China’s presence as it stands, either. They must be allowed to practice their religion and preserve their culture. Kerr believes the middle way is not working. Tibet, to China, is considered

TWENTY SOMETHING by David Lion Rattiner
Forks Over Knives
I was sitting with my dad at 75 Main last week when we started to discuss the economy. The economy is probably my favorite thing to talk about. It’s one of those things that affects everybody, and the beauty of it is that nobody can question you when you are right about it. One of the things that I find frustrating about working in an “artistic” field such as writing is that it can be subjective. Even if you are a great writer (like I am, hehe) somebody can say that you aren’t to his or her personal tastes or that they don’t like you personally. This can be extremely annoying, especially with people who get jealous of your work, and it’s sort of something that all artists have to deal with. But with the economy and investing, there is no question. Either you are right and you make money, or you are wrong and you lose money. There is something very pure about it. Recently the price of gold has come down a bit, and as a personal investor, my dad was happy to ask me about that and I was happy to answer. Gold is going through a small
correction right now for two reasons. One is because of the crisis in Europe dominating the media landscape. The U.S. dollar has the exact same problems as Europe, the only difference is that the focus is on Europe right now. This will probably remain true throughout 2012 until the Presidential election. The second reason is because of the political races that are taking place. Everybody wants to give the economy a juice right now because they want to take credit for the high that we all get off of money printing and going deeper into debt. As such, the dollar gets a little stronger compared to the Euro and other currencies, such as gold. But make no mistake about it, all of the fundamentals that cause the price of gold to go up are there and monetizing our debt is going to continue in the U.S. whether anybody wants to admit it or not. “Well so what? So we print more money, what’s the big deal?” The big deal is very simple, as you print more money, the value of that money goes down. So many politicians and economists do not understand this, and it is frightening. But look at it this way, if money printing was the key to economic success than Zimbabwe would be the world’s most financially successful country. The bottom line is that if you are going to protect your wealth, you have to be wise with where your money is going. It’s just that simple, and it’s not a bad idea to have some gold. I’ve looked at any large dips in gold as buying opportunities, and if you want to be really clever, you can buy and sell it during these ups and downs, or you can hold it for the long haul and visualize what will happen to the U.S. after the election. Even more so if
Mitt Romney were to win, although I’d hate to say it, Obama really isn’t any better when it comes to this. I really see this pretty clearly, so I can’t help myself from writing about it, and I’d really appreciate anybody else reading this to write in and tell me your thoughts. My dad asked me about stocks. Yes, I believe in stocks, but the reason is because of the reasons I’m in favor of gold, I’m betting that the printing press is going to keep printing, which means that the companies that many Americans rely on to live, will continue to have money pumping into them. I’m cautious on technology stocks and any other security that doesn’t involve hard goods that people need. Stocks can be a store of value, gold can be a store of value, commodities can be a store of value. The point is that the fiat currencies are in a crisis but nobody really knows or wants to admit what that means. I personally feel safer with my own money in high dividend yielding stocks or gold, even when there is volatility. In terms of lifestyle, look, this country is a great place. But governments are broke, and unless something drastic changes, like insane increases in taxes or insane cuts to services, we are going to continue down this road, both in the U.S. and in Europe and if the printing press continues, it’s going to have unwelcome effects on our currency which will have an unwelcome effect on our way of life. There are plenty of examples where governments go broke and have to revalue their currency, and it’s for this reason that if you have money, you have to at least acknowledge that this can happen and invest accordingly.

NORTH FORK Baseball Across the Forks By Kelly Laffey â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Tis the season â&#x20AC;&#x201C; to begin the countdown to Opening Day! And next summer, fans will be able to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Root, root, root for the home teamâ&#x20AC;? on Shelter Island. The Shelter Island school district has voted in favor of becoming the home of the seventh member of the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League (HCB), a part of the Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League (ACBL). â&#x20AC;&#x153;After three seasons as a five-team organization, the timing feels right, and Shelter Island feels
like the right fit as well. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re thrilled,â&#x20AC;? says Brett Mauser, the president of Hamptons Collegiate Baseball. The team, which has yet to be named, will begin play in June 2012. They will compete in a total of 40 regular season games, 20 of which will be held at home on the Shelter Island School Districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s field. But, landlubbers beware â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the team will have to travel to all of its away games via the Shelter Island ferry. That could definitely be a unique experience for players not accustomed to being so, well, â&#x20AC;&#x153;sheltered.â&#x20AC;?

ExpirEs
Shelter Island will become the seventh team to compete for the ACBL Hampton Division crown, as theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll join the North Fork Ospreys, Riverhead Tomcats, Southampton Breakers, Sag Harbor Whalers, Westhampton Aviators and fellow newcomer Center Moriches Battlecats. The team will be managed by Joe Burke, a former player at St. Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s University and a seven-year MLB veteran. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since we first started out in 2008, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been able to bring high-level baseball to the East End at no cost to the public,â&#x20AC;? says Mauser. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And in these economic times, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great to be able to make a short walk or drive to the game and enjoy a night out with the family. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what this is really all about.â&#x20AC;? The announcement comes at a good time for East End baseball fans, as Major League Baseball Spring Training doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t begin until next month. HCB alumni, however, may be able to fill some gaps in the future as the league builds on its reputation of providing high-quality collegiate ball. Former HCB players include shortstop Nick Ahmed, a 2011 second-round pick for the Atlanta Braves and third baseman Kyle Kubitza, a third-round pick for the Braves in 2011. Last season, 12 HCB alumni played for the professionals.

Southampton’s Age Focus
Dr. Juan Gargiulo
By Kelly Laffey Located inside an unassuming office building on County Road 39A, AgeFocus is revolutionizing the field of preventative healthcare. The evidence-based medical facility is a pioneer of Age Management Medicine and offers highly-individualized treatments to increase patients’ overall health and fitness. Started by Dr. Juan Gargiulo, an expert in preventative medicine, and Will Yule, the facility’s Executive Director, AgeFocus offers four distinct programs that help with age management, weight loss, sports performance and cosmetic enhancement. AgeFocus’ signature development is the Executive Health age management program, which helps patients to tackle the negative effects of aging. The program begins with patients undergoing an extensive five to seven-hour evaluation in the state-of-the-art facility. AgeFocus assesses the whole person and compiles data on everything from cognitive perspective to resting metabolic rate, bone density, body composition and the volume of oxygen used at different stages of exercise. “We do testing that no other facility really does,” says Yule. AgeFocus’ team of specialists then use all of this information to work closely with the patient to tailor a specific approach to wellness through exercise, nutrition and hormone optimization. “When you combine all three, you have this synergy effect of a healthy human being,” says Yule. Perhaps the most notable aspect of AgeFocus’ multi-faceted approach to age management is the hormone therapy. A key component to living a youthful lifestyle, hormones help to reverse the physical and mental deterioration that accompanies aging. “Hormones definitely play a significant role in health,” says Dr. Gargiulo “Hormone supplementation gives you what you don’t have.” AgeFocus recognizes that everyone’s body is completely different, and all people, regardless of fitness level or health goals, can benefit from the Executive Health program and the information obtained through the initial evaluation process. For example, Yule laments that most people who
Check Out
aspire to lose weight legitimately try to exercise, but they can’t shed the pounds because they’re not working out in the right way. AgeFocus’ cardiocoach VO2 test plays a significant role in solving this dilemma, as it measures the amount of oxygen consumed at different stages of a workout. At the end of the consultation, patients realize where they need their heart rate to be in order to achieve certain weight loss or endurance goals. “There is a science to it. You need to go into your peak (heart rate) to get something out of a workout,” says Yule. Though testing and treatment for the Executive Health program often
overlaps with the other three programs, patients who have more specific needs can opt for more specific focus on weight loss or sports performance. AgeFocus also accommodates patients seeking cosmetic procedures. “Age management and weight loss are the two most popular,” says Dr. Gargiulo. A living testament to the positive health effects AgeFocus can have on people’s lives, both Dr. Gargiulo and Yule have gone through the programs. “(It’s) the best feeling in the world, watching someone who came in here and lost 40 pounds and have them hug and kiss you and cry because it was just an amazing experience for them,” says Yule.

Planet Fitness! By Kelly Laffey Thousands of East Enders ushered in the New Year a mere three weeks ago, and, though the official stats have yet to be released, it’s projected that 70% of people who vowed to get into shape have succumbed to their vices and let Giants QB Eli Manning do all the physical work while they sit, comatose, in front of the television and nosh on nachos. An extreme scenario? Or a completely valid prediction? The point is – to a lot of people, a sedentary lifestyle, particularly in the winter, seems to be the easiest route to take. False. Enter Riverhead’s Planet Fitness. Planet Fitness has built its reputation on being an affordable, state-of-the-art, no-nonsense chain of gyms that encourages people of all fitness levels to reach their athletic goals. Its hallmark Judgement
Free Zone philosophy allows members to comfortably work out at their own pace. The intimidation factor is simply non-existent, though there are plenty of opportunities for members to challenge themselves to exercise harder and smarter. All gym memberships include free Unlimited Fitness Training, which is Planet Fitness’ version of personal training. Classes are limited to five people, and the trainer gets a feel for people’s specific needs and injuries to tailor a personal workout regimen that allows all participants to realize their potential. One of the most appealing aspects of the gym is that it’s just that: A gym. There are no salespeople or extra juice bars that ultimately only serve to drive up the cost of membership and distract patrons from working out. However, this is not to say that Planet Fitness has eliminated the fun factor. The
Fancy going for a run?
facility is full of energetic, friendly people who are happy because they’re working toward a healthy goal at a clean and stylish facility. Members also bond at the free pizza nights on the first Monday of every month, and free bagel breakfast on the second Tuesday of the month. Wedding Crashers said it best: “No Excuses. Play like a champion.” And go to Planet Fitness. Planet Fitness is located at 116 Kroemer Ave, Riverhead. 631-369-6200. Open Mon. - Fri. 5 a.m. – 10 p.m., Weekends 7 a.m. – 7 p.m.

& The view from The garden Jeanelle Myers
On December 23, 2011 the Food and Drug Administration stopped it’s 34-year attempt to withdraw its previous approval of penicillin and tetracyclines in animal feed in spite of long standing opinions from The World Health Organization, the American Medical Association, The European Union and other major organizations stating that the use of sub-therapeutic antibiotics in animal feed and water is negatively impacting human health. Eighty percent of all antibiotics (including many others besides penicillin and tetracycline that are also used to treat disease in humans) produced in this country are fed to animals (including fishfarmed fish) and 90% of those antibiotics are excreted in the form of urine and manure. It is estimated that one billion tons of manure are produced per year and that land application of it is the dominating pathway for releasing antibiotics into the terrestrial environment. These antibiotics (and parasiticides, pesticides
and hormones) are given to animals to inhibit (not to cure) subclinical infections, and allow less feed to cause more growth faster. We and our doctors are reluctant to use antibiotics to limit the resistance of bacteria to them but the incidence of drug resistant disease is increasing as are foodborne illnesses that are becoming resistant to drugs. However, there are antibiotics in the soil and water that we have no control over. In 2005 a University of Minnesota study proved that food plants (corn, potatoes, etc.) absorb antibiotics from soil fertilized with manure from animals that ingested them in their food. This does not include any antibiotics in our water system from runoff. As I researched this, I discovered that this is a huge topic involving health, food, politics and money. It is directly related to the way we grow animals for food, the majority of them being grown in huge feed situations. There have been successful bans in the EU but there has been no movement in this country in spite of attempts from several governmental departments and other non-governmental areas. At present, however, there is a bill sponsored by Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Congresswoman Louise Slaughter (NY-28) to limit the use of certain classes of antibiotics in animals. (H.R. 965) Even if passed, this bill will not wholly solve the problem. How does this apply to gardening? Well, as always, I suggest that we all inform ourselves as much as possible. There is so much information on the Internet about these topics (and it does involve many topics) that it is easy to become lost. Here
Don’t try this at home.
is how I have chosen to act: I use no manure or composted manure in the garden. I use no fertilizer with any animal product in the garden. When I find a farm that raises animals with no antibiotics, pesticides, hormones etc., then I will use their manure products. I think this is important not only in vegetable gardens but also in all parts of the landscape. There is evidence that antimicrobials in manure disrupt the soil flora and fauna. I do not want to put any of these kinds of chemicals into the soil where it is available to the humans and other animals on the property. In the meantime, I use worm castings, available locally, shredded leaves and plant residue, lime where appropriate, soil microbe inoculants and continue the search for soil building techniques that do not involve animal products. For gardening discussion call Jeanelle Myers at 631-434-5067.

“New Years,” whether the Lunar, Gregorian, or Chinese calendar spells the time for fun, friends, frolic and food—it’s time for celebration! January 23 is the beginning of the Chinese New Year and the foods that traditionally come into play. Central to the foods prepared could be noodles for long life. I’ve chosen soba noodles to serve with salmon steaks marinated in a mixture of soy, sake, scallions and ginger. While the marinade may sound familiar the technique is a bit different in that the marinade ingredients are simmered then poured over the steaks to marinate. After playing with the recipe a few times I found one of the most important elements is the freshness of the salmon. Be sure to purchase your salmon from your most trusted fishmonger. Another option is chicken with hoisin sauce and cashews, a tried and true classic. This dish can be served with long thin green beans to keep with the tradition of longevity. Occasionally good things can come right off supermarket shelves such as the makings for the dessert, Chinese fruits in almond syrup. Let’s join in the fun for a Happy Chinese New Year.
2. Cut the filet into even-size boneless steaks, about 6 ounces each. Place in a non-reactive dish large enough to hold them in a single layer. Pour the cooled marinade over and let rest up to 1 hour at room temperature. 3. Warm a sturdy non-stick skillet and put in the oil. When the pan and oil are hot, but not smoking, put in the filets skinned-side up. Sear the fish over medium heat for 3 minutes, turn with fish spatula and sear other side for 3 minutes longer. I prefer to slightly undercook salmon to a rosy pink interior. Test for doneness by poking a finger in the thickest part of the steaks, it should be slightly soft for medium rare or springy to the touch for medium. Cook the filets a couple minutes longer if you prefer

Restaurant Review: Matsulin By Stacy Dermont My husband and I decided to celebrate the Chinese New Year a little early with a dinner at Matsulin in Hampton Bays. Our friend Maria Scotto raves about their sushi. That’s not really our thing, but we’ve long meant to check out Matsulin’s other offerings, which they promote as “delectable, authentic Asian cuisine from Malaysia, China, Japan, Thailand and Vietnam.” We arrived to dine on Matsulin’s 8th anniversary of opening on the corner of Montauk Highway and Springville Road. Wow! Did we go to the right place. CROSS THE CANAL IF NECESSARY – There IS top notch Asian food on the East End! The brother and sister team who own this elegant eatery are Chinese but their grandparents relocated the family to Malaysia. Our host Kay Lim went to college in Australia and worked in Chinese restaurants there so he could eat well. Following age-old tradition Matsulin is offering a special Chinese New Year Menu Tuesday, January 24 through February 6. On January 29, the 7th day of Chinese New Year, they host a special brunch buffet – this is the traditional birthday celebration for all Chinese people. What a party! We thought we’d stick to the Chinese offerings but

we strayed…deliciously. Kay suggested heated sake to start, which our server Ivan delivered in tiny earthenware cups and a matching carafe. We started with the Qi Cai Yu Sheng, this tossed salad featuring raw fish symbolizes a prosperous year and it is only available for Chinese New Year. Fine strips of fresh beet, cabbage, scallion, carrot and taro with seafood and crispy noodles all sprinkled with five spice powder and pepper from red and gold paper packets and topped with chopped peanuts makes a gorgeous dish. Husband and I exclaimed in unison over our first bite, “Mmm, Mmm, Wow! That’s amazing.” We tore through many other delights, to wit: tender and sweetly flavorful Chicken Satay (so good you’ll lick the stick); Spicy Spinach Japanese style on a bed of beet strips, great texture, just the right hit of chili; such light Fried Calamari, a bit chewy in a good way; a Chinese dumpling of shrimp and watercress, light but flavorful (I switched from chopsticks to fork to get into some serious shoveling at this point.); a Tuna Sushi of white tuna and brightly colored tuna wrapped around fresh, tender asparagus – so crisp yet so deeply savory (This must be what our friend Maria was raving about.); Sushi of shrimp tempura
inside, snow crab on top – a savory perfection of both flavor and texture (Kay suggested a cool bottle of sake to accompany the sushi, served in bamboo cups with thin spikes of cucumber – so refreshing – as Kay says, “It’s smooth. It gets you after.”); Vegetarian Spare Ribs, flavored with five spice powder, created from house-made tofu in chopped vegetables and pine nuts over brown rice – the light smokiness seduced me but I managed to hold back – and enjoyed much of the dish for lunch the next day – I didn’t bother to heat it, it was SO GOOD.; the Japanese sea bass with green beans was lusciously tender, complemented by baby bok choy and pink peppercorns; the Chinese Garlic Chicken was bright red, tender, moist and salty – crispy skin and al dente bok choy keep it interesting texturally; Malaysian Curry Chicken served with a neat stack of fries – I adored it, Husband wished it to be spicier. For once neither of us had any room for dessert. We crossed the street and went to see Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol. We did not buy popcorn or candy.

& ART COMMENTARY by Marion W. Weiss
A Look Back At Art Exhibits: 2011
It’s always difficult to compile a list of exceptional art exhibits during any given year. In other words, to suggest a “Best of 2011, ” like film critics do. And then again, why not? After all, sculpture, paintings, prints, and photographs are art forms, just like movies. If we admit our selections are somewhat subjective and put such choices in context, we are not committing the crime of the century by putting forth our preferences. So, here goes. Excuse this critic if the top of the list is devoted to young artists, the annual Student Art Shows at both Guild Hall and the Parrish Museum. While not enough respect is given to American art education, we’re still lucky here to have exceptional programs in our private and public schools. And well we should, considering the artistic legacy that our area is known for. Moreover, the museums knock themselves out providing the students with the best possible venue. They all deserve myriad kudos.
HONORING THE ARTIST by Marion W. Weiss
Toby Haynes
Cornwall, England, may seem like a faraway place for some people, but to cover artist Toby Haynes, it’s home. Similarly, the Hamptons may seem like an equally distant setting for other individuals, but again, for Haynes it’s home. While Haynes is English, dividing his time between the East End and a small village, Launceston, in northern Cornwall, he gets inspiration from both environments. He also finds a connection between the two areas: both are dominated by the sea where the lighting is formable, although Cornwall’s ambience is “softer” and evokes a green/brown color that meets in the middle. Conversely, the Hampton sky favors a yellow/blue tint. The cover image, “Electric Dusk,” recreates the South Fork at sunset, juxtaposing manmade electric poles with the natural sky. The contrast is striking as are many of Haynes’ works where the mood is simultaneously mysterious and mythic. Whatever the medium he uses (oil, watercolor or pastel), there’s a sense of discovery for the artist and viewer alike. And a sense of timelessness and universality. For example, while we realize that Haynes’ sheep were drawn in Cornwall, we can imagine they might be living any place, even the Hamptons. Q: Cornwall is one of my most favorite places on the planet, maybe because a group of abstract
From the young to the old: two exhibits, particularly, celebrated established artists who are no longer with us. First, Conrad Marca-Relli’s show at The Pollock Krasner House, a venue that’s especially known for keeping legacies alive and well. Marca-Relli’s work is, of course, exceptional, rich with textures, tones and earth colors suggesting primitive, essential sensibilities. Second, Esteban Vicente’s exhibit at the Parrish Museum was another noteworthy homage to a great artist, whose palette was more colorful, perhaps, than MarciRelli’s but whose cultural background and family spirit inspired a similar love of life. Vicente’s and Marci-Relli’s overwhelming penchant for material brings us to favor two other shows this year featuring media and materials. Dale Chihuly’s new glassworks at The LongHouse Reserve are a case in point where his “White Belugas” suggested any number of objects, like a candle, bottle or person. Even though glass is known for its fragility, Chihuly’s pieces seem to last forever. The exhibit, “Material Matters,” also highlighted texture at Southampton Cultural Center. Archetypical compositions became the subtle centerpiece in weavings by Carol Hunt and monotypes by Roseann Schwab. While these examples stress formal aspects of art, this critic favors work that expresses provocative ideas and concepts and/or political and sociological themes: art that is “food for thought.” This “food” includes slightly wacky and quirky art by such artists as Charles Waller and David Sutter in their
last show at the Pamela Williams Gallery. Consider Waller’s metaphoric “Victory Garden” and Sutter’s equally ambiguous sculpture “Lost.” Richard Prince’s “Uncovering Pollock” at Guild Hall was another equally ambiguous but still provocative series where photographs of Jackson Pollock were covered by smaller pictures. The effect suggests that Prince wants to “uncover” Pollock’s hidden persona. Or perhaps, he wants to keep it hidden in order to protect him. Bastienne Schmidt’s photographs (“Home Stills”) of female figures at Harper’s Books served as metaphors as well, inferring that woman are suffering from suffocation and entrapment. They are also not “whole” human beings when Schmidt masks her characters in blurry defocusing. Regardless of this technique, however, her message is clear and concise. We look forward to 2012 and all the varied, stimulating exhibits it will surely bring.
artists lived and worked there in the 1940s like here in East Hampton. Dame Barbara Hepworth, for example. But the landscape is extraordinary, too. What does Cornwall mean to you? A: Cornwall is a Celtic stronghold, separated from England. It has a lot of strangeness. I am English living in Cornwall, but I’m not Cornish. It’s a pleasure living here, like residing in a foreign country. Q: Describe your living conditions in Cornwall. A: I live in a little cottage, and I built a studio three years ago. Most of my neighbors are sheep, and the towns are 10 miles away. Q: How about the grocery story? A: Two miles away. Q: That’s not bad. I travel two miles to the store. Pardon the question, but do you have a television? A: I used to look after a disabled lady, and TV was central to her life. But after she passed away, I threw the TV out. Q: I can understand that. How do you find New York? Was it difficult for you to adjust because it’s so different from Cornwall? A: I was surprised I adjusted so well. New York is such an energetic place; the museums and galleries are obviously wonderful. I get there and to the Hamptons six months a year. It’s a nice mixture. Q: Are you planning on using New York as a subject for your work? A: I imagine New York will be part of my work: buildings that are gilded by the sun, Central Park. I tend to work in series which now don’t include New York. Artists don’t like to worry about their next piece or subject so that’s why they do series. Q: What’s the series that you are presently working on? A: I am doing charcoal drawings of sheep, concentrating on texture. Q: Why sheep besides the fact that they are all around you in Cornwall? A: I like them for their abstract, striated patterns when they are shorn. The longer you look, the more
you see the design. Q: It sounds as though you have a strong art background. Or one dealing with nature. A: My father was a sign painter, a commercial artist you might say. I grew up with the smell of paint. Every Christmas my brother and I would get a box of watercolors. Q: Did you major in art? A: No, I went to Oxford University and studied German and philosophy. Q: That’s really impressive. How about being involved with nature? A: After the University, I worked for the National Trust in North Cornwall moving sections of the coastal footpath. Q: That’s impressive, too. I have walked on part of that footpath. But what really attracted you to art besides perhaps your father’s profession? A: It came instinctively. I was far more interested in something I could create. Philosophy isn’t tangible like art. You know the saying, “ Philosophy is a blind man in a dark room looking for a black cat.” Toby Haynes’ work may be seen on his website: www.tobyhaynes.com.

HAMPTONS EPICURE Stacy Dermont
Clueless in the Hamptons…
Last week my friend Dee mentioned that she’d had a nice dinner at Spring Close in East Hampton. What’s this? A restaurant I’ve never heard of in East Hampton? Is it new? I asked. No, Dee said it opened last year. A few days later my friend Gale told me she’d taken her family to Spring Close for a dinner to celebrate her grand daughter’s 18th birthday. This place must be ultra cool—Gale is the mother of legendary guitarist slash surfer Bosco. I mentioned Spring Close to my husband and he said, “Oh yeah, I know right where that is on Pantigo Road.” That was the last straw! If my absent-mindedprofessor husband is more in-the-know than I am about something—anything—I have to bust a move already! I picked up the phone (yes, an archaic land line) and called Spring Close for reservations. “Colin”

answered the phone in a friendly manner and apologized profusely that the cable was out all along Pantigo Road—so I wouldn’t be able to watch the game there. Quel dommage! It sounded pretty casual, like we didn’t strictly need reservations, but I said we’d be in at 5 p.m. for a quiet dinner. As I hung up the phone a thought occurred that made my blood run cold—Had I just committed to dining at a SPORTS BAR?! Oh well, in for a penny… As we were about to turn into the parking lot at Spring Close, I spied the sign out front and thought to myself, “Oh! THE PIGGY RESTAURANT! YEAH!” I was so taken with their sign featuring a pig covered with pink hearts I’d a) never bothered to read the WORDS on the sign b) lazily tried to find the time to dine there all of last summer by saying “Hey, let’s go to that place that used to be the Laundry.” And then staying in for home-grilled eats. c) made a mental note NOT to invite kosher friends to dine with me there. I was very pleased to be here at last and equally pleased that I didn’t say anything about “the piggy restaurant” out loud to Professor Husband. (He’s generally pretty out-of-it, yet he rarely forgets any embarrassing words uttered by moi.) Upon entering and meeting Colin in person, I thought we might be onto something of a hipster scene. (Do the Hamptons have their own gastropub?) I had to ask about their great logo. Colin told me it is based on an artist’s steel sculptures of pigs , that featured cut-out hearts all over the two-sided pig

shape. One of his sculptures in on the bar, filled with glowing candles. The artist and Colin are both from Woodstock, New York. Piggy mystery solved. The interior of Spring Close features a popular bar and a sizeable dining space which includes a banquet table for fourteen. Topped by extremely wax-covered, King Arthur-worthy candlesticks, I found the banquet table very inviting, but we were seated at a four-top. Rustic walls, windows all along the front, large indoor plants, a patio that must be hoppin’ in summer. I quite liked the atmosphere and that’s a big part of any dining experience. You can read a review of the meal I enjoyed at Spring Close in next week’s Dan’s Papers.
Dan’s Papers January 20, 2012 danshamptons.com Page 36
LETTERS SHELTERED Dear Dan, I was in reading AIS, when my teacher read the article Shelter Island. It was very interesting, and we were wondering what was true, or if any of it was true. It was the newspaper on December 23, 2011. That article was written by David Lion Rattiner. We were just so curious so if you can get back to me on that, that would be great so I can tell my teacher, like I had already said, what’s true, or if anything of it is true. Thanks a lot. I hope you had a very Merry Christmas and had a great New Year. Sincerely, Nicole Tenti 7th Grade Student Shelter Island Anything starring Old Man McGumbus, which this does, is fiction. –DR “Who’s Been Sleeping in the Lincoln Bedroom” Dear Dan, It has been said that George Washington slept in many places but one of them wasn’t the Lincoln Bedroom simply because it did not exist during his time. But wouldn’t it be a great idea if President Obama our Commander in Chief would invite American veterans for overnights in the White House’s extra bedroom! And what would even be better is if the President would invite those Wounded Warriors who have been given Guide Dogs or America’s Vet Dogs or Companion Dogs for overnight slumbers so they can share their personal stories with him.
Between now and the November 2012 Presidential Elections I am certain that some time may be available for overnight for American’s Veterans in the Lincoln Bedroom. And wouldn’t that be a good use of taxpayer’s dollars? And perhaps also set a precedent for other elected officials, movie stars and members of America’s middle class to also open up their extra rooms for a slumber party with our military veterans. Mike De Paoli, Vietnam Veteran America’s Vet Dogs Recipient Centereach, L.I. This is a good idea. –DR WANNA BUY A BRIDGE IN BROOKLYN? Dear Dan, John Corzine’s defense of his actions at MF Global boggle the mind. Corzine is worth $500 million and has previously served as CEO of Goldman Sachs, as well as Governor and United States Senator from New Jersey. He managed budgets in the billions to trillions. So it is odd that he misplaced $1.2 billion dollars of MF Global assets. Even worse, President Obama has previously considered appointing Corzine Secretary of the Treasury or another critical cabinet post. By coincidence, Corzine raised $500,000 for his Presidential campaign. Vice President Joe Biden called Corzine “the smartest guy I know in finance.” Perhaps I can interest either Obama or Biden in
Police Blotter Skimming A woman from East Hampton was caught on camera stealing money from a register at the store where she works in Bridgehampton. The amount of money stolen was roughly $535. That’s one way to get a pay increase I guess. Shelter Island A former Shelter Island justice and her husband received probation after pleading guilty to identity theft and fourth degree grand larceny. The couple stole more than a million dollars from an 89-yearold woman from Water Mill, who suffers from dementia, over a four-year period. I literally just got sick to my stomach. Gross, just gross. Windsurfer Saved A 68-year-old windsurfer from Center Moriches needed to be rescued off the coast of Robins Island in Peconic Bay last week. The water temperature was 40 degrees, the winds were traveling at 45 miles per hour, and the sea was roughly four to seven feet with swells. A rescue helicopter, the Coast Guard and police departments were all dispatched in the search. I don’t know whether or not to be impressed that a 68-year-old guy was out windsurfing in the middle of winter, or to be angry that so many taxpayer resources were wasted in finding this idiot.
Shelter Island Old Man McGumbus, 106, and former World War II Navy pilot, was rescued by the Shelter Island Ferry while he was in the middle of his annual “Wintertime Swim Around Shelter Island For Charity.” McGumbus, who has been swimming around the island annually without a wetsuit for the last 40 years to help support his favorite charity, “Have A Heart For Machine Gun Owners” which raises money for automatic weapons owners who suffer from heart disease. In the middle of the swim McGumbus accidentally swam directly into the Shelter Island Ferry and knocked himself out. The Shelter Island Ferry Captain was quoted that he thought he had hit a whale, “And then I pulled out Old Man McGumbus. I couldn’t believe it!” McGumbus was revived by the captain, and after about 20 minutes of being wrapped a blanket, he continued on his swim. “That Old Man McGumbus is one tough son of a bitch.” Fake Green Card A man in Riverhead was arrested and charged with carrying a fake U.S. green card. The man was asked to present his I.D. after he was pulled over for driving without a seatbelt and presented to them a forged U.S. green card. Kind of sad in a way, just goes to show how impossibly complicated the immigration issue is.
Send your letters to askdan@danspapers.com (e-mails only, please) buying the Brooklyn Bridge? Sincerely, Larry Penner Great Neck Innocent until proven blah blah. –DR TILTING Dear Dan, I’m just guessing but raising the windmills off the ground eliminates moisture that always causes rotting to the shingles. Thomas V. Malone Westhampton Beach Yeah, but there’s usually a foundation. –DR OILY Dear Dan, Finally our troops are out of Iraq without the oil, which precipitated the phony invasion, and without the lives of our 4,000 boys and girls unknowingly fighting and dying for it. We eradicated the Equalizer in the region, Saddam Hussein, we made Iran powerful and victorious, we allowed our war in Afghanistan to languish and it only took nine years. What could possibly go wrong? Well at least Cheney’s Halliburton did well, as did the private contractors. Obviously Cheney still feels there is profit to be made from this fiasco since he wants us to stay there, as does his Mini-Me daughter. If Cheney thinks it is wrong to leave Iraq, judging from his past misjudgments, it must be right. Let us hope that come 2012, voters remember the “Comedy (read: Tragedy) of Errors” that our present administration inherited from the previous. We have the opportunity to end the futile struggle in Afghanistan, save our country from the disaster of an ever-increasing inequity of wealth, closing loopholes, insure fair share tax implementation and eliminate a host of other destructions heaped upon our country by that previous administration. The alternative is continued tax breaks for the wealthy on the backs of the middle class, bye-bye Medicare, Social Security, Education Aid, all programs necessary for the middle class to rise. We are at the crossroads of our country’s future. Either we relinquish all to the benefactors of today’s version of the Republican Party and the Conservative Supreme Court’s invention of the “Corporate People” or stand firm for the real “People.” The choice is in the hands or more accurately, the votes of the Middle Class. Alan Johnson East Hampton Politics. –DR WHO WAS THERE Dear Dan, As Monday was a National Holiday in honor of Martin Luther King, it brought back wonderful memories of spending a full week at his home in Atlanta, in 1967, where I filmed a one-hour project about his many ideas and thoughts. You can find me in your archives, April 23, 2010, “Who’s Here.” Regards, George Silano Retired motion picture cameraman Resident of North Haven since 1969
