Dan’s Long Wharf I Bought Long Wharf for Double What the Village Offered By Dan Rattiner It was reported last week in The Sag Harbor Express that the County is very close to making a deal that would result in the sale of Long Wharf to the Village of Sag Harbor. You might have thought that shouldn’t be happening because the Long Wharf, the treasure of that community, was already owned by the Village of Sag Harbor, but you would be wrong about that. For many years after it was built in 1771, right through to around 1934, in the middle of the Depression, the wharf DID belong to the village. But not any more. The Wharf was the scene of two battles in two different wars. During the Revolution, the rebels surprise attacked a British munitions depot on the wharf in the middle of the night, burned the depot and made off with many redcoat prisoners. During the War of 1812, American Militiamen confronted the British trying to land on Long Wharf and burn down the town. The British actually did get a foothold on the wharf, but cannon fire
beat them off after an hour. It was quite a dramatic fight. The Wharf of course was also the very center of everything during the years when Sag Harbor was a whaling town. More than 100 ships were docked at or near the wharf at the height of whaling in the 1840s. By the time the Depression came, however, Sag Harbor was suffering mightily and the village could no longer afford to do the necessary
in its headline, however, it does seem that the possibility of the sale still is a bit shaky. (It’s IMPOSSIBLY shaky as a matter of fact, which I will get to in a moment). The County first offered up the Wharf last year, and the Village said they’d take it, but only on the condition that the County bring the wharf up to tip top condition and agree to continue to maintain it. The County then balked and took it off the market. Then they met again this fall for a second try and that failed. And now there is this third try. Personally, because I think there is a whole lot of hot air going back and forth, I have stepped in, actually swooped in, in secret, and after brief negotiations have bought Long Wharf myself out from under the Village’s nose. I know this comes as a shock to you. County Legislator Schneiderman made me swear that I would keep this sale under my hat until he has had a chance to smooth things over with Mayor Gilbride and back out gracefully, but frankly I am just too excited to keep all this a secret. It was not easy to make this happen. I offered half again more than the Village was willing to pay. But my initial offer of $1.50 was turned down, in spite of the fact that this was half again more than the Village was willing to pay. Legislator Schneiderman said they would take nothing less than $3 for the wharf. When I pointed out that this was TRIPLE what the Village would pay, he relented and entered into a little bargaining. They say that a good
It was not easy to make this happen. I offered half again more than the Village was willing to pay. But my initial offer of $1.50 was turned down..

maintenance to keep the wharf in good order. As a result, the Village fathers appealed to the County of Suffolk to take it over for them, and the County did so in exchange for the ownership of the wharf and $1. In many ways now, the situation is reversed. The Village is thriving again. But the County is in bad financial shape. And so the County and the Village are deep in negotiations to have the wharf sold back to the Village for $1. The point people in all this are County Legislator Jay Schneiderman and Village Mayor Brian Gilbride. The Trustees of Sag Harbor and the County Legislature have weighed in on this too. In spite of what The Sag Harbor Express says

The event, which is open to the public, will be held at the French Consulate on Fifth Avenue on March 8. During the tasting, Master of Wine Jennifer Simonetti-Bryan will challenge guests with a series of “wine games” including blind tastings, aroma quizzes and vintage comparisons.

Wharf
(continued from page 9)
deal only happens when both sides feel slightly unhappy with the outcome. And that is the case here. I overpaid for the wharf. I paid $2 for it, exactly DOUBLE what my nearest competitor offered. Had it been more than that I would have backed out. Schneiderman however apparently sensed that. On the other hand, he sensed that he couldn’t turn this amount down. And so we shook hands at $2. And we signed the papers over dinner at the American Hotel later that evening. My plans for the Wharf are simple. I intend to make it the biggest tourist attraction on eastern Long Island rivaled only by the Big Duck in Flanders, though in the end, you will see that the Wharf will blow the Duck straight out of the water for the bragging rights to that designation. Long Wharf, after a short pause next month for “renovations,” will be re-opened to the public, but only after you pass through the door of a 10-foot tall wood stockade barrier fence (decorated with scenes from the wharf’s history) and only for a trip on the trolley. That is to say, there will no longer be pedestrians allowed on the wharf. It is too dangerous, and people can and have simply unintentionally walked off the end of it, for example Christopher Valentine, age 56 of Parsippany, New Jersey, either walked or fell off the wharf not long ago and drowned. A great tragedy. So there will be the trolley. Just inside the door, there will be a turnstile and booth where from the booth lady you can buy tickets at five bucks each to be able to ride the trolley. The trolley, which I have already purchased from
Six Flags in Jackson, New Jersey, will have up in front of five wooden benches, a conductor in a cap and coat manning a steering wheel and a cute front that has a lantern and rubberized skirt made to look like a choo choo train’s “cow catcher” to keep the “cows” at bay. You get on the trolley, for another five bucks a person, (the first $5 was just to GET you to the trolley) and you go once around the wharf on the narrow gauge tracks that you may have noticed are now being affixed to the top of the wharf as we speak. The tracks make a big horseshoe. You go out the right side of the wharf the whole 300 feet very slowly, keeping your hands and feet inside the trolley, and the conductor presses a button and out of a loud speaker a recorded sailing captain’s voice will give you a brief description of the history of Long Wharf together with the sound of harpoons being fired, whales “blowing” and slapping their tails and blubber being bubbled off in hot vats aboard the whaling ships to melt down to whale oil. The trolley will slowly come around the horseshoe when it reaches the very end of the wharf—you’ll have a brief glimpse of the jetty entrance to the Harbor—and then you’ll be on your way back home, to get off where you got on, so the next group can go out and have a look. The ride is pretty quick actually—you know about the short attention spans of people these days—so you will be back on “dry land” before you know it. This is the plan for what will be happening at Long Wharf, now named Captain Dan’s Long Wharf, during the day. At night, the Long Wharf will be closed entirely—there might be
muggers or other nefarious fellows about—and so just in case it will be brightly lit all night in bright colors like the Empire State Building, a different color for each day (night) of the week to both protect it from robbers and give it it’s due as the great centerpiece tourist attraction it will have become. Of course, I don’t mean to close Long Wharf every day of the year. There will be three days a year when I will allow Long Wharf to be open to strollers. For free. These are the days we will be doing maintenance on the trolley anyway—it has to be done every 10,000 miles or 6 months whichever comes first—and on those days, the Saturday of HarborFest in the summertime, the Saturday of HarborFrost in the wintertime and on the date of the Fourth of July whichever day it falls upon, Long Wharf will be free, after they have signed the waiver, to all to walk upon as it had been before I bought it. I’m really not such a bad guy. You’re going to love Dan’s Long Wharf

Interplanetary Hit A Piece of Mars Lands on Earth and Is Going to a Museum By Dan Rattiner Maybe we can’t go to Mars. But that does not mean that Mars can’t come to us. Turns out a piece of Mars landed deep in the desert in Morocco. Bedouins who were leading camels through at the time saw what they first thought was a shooting star. Heading over to it, the found it was a glowing hot rock that, after awhile, began to cool off. They knew it was important, because it came out of the sky like that. They waited until it was cool enough, then put it in a saddlebag and shipped it to Rabat, then Paris and, ultimately, to New York. One of the nomads claimed ownership of the rock. It was finders keepers he said. But he did let others look at it, including
some scientists in Paris. They identified it as Martian rock. It weighed about 2.5 pounds. It’s crumbly gray with veins of black running through it. It was named Tissint, after a small village that it landed near. They found through carbon dating it had solidified from a piece of magma 400 million years ago, but seems to have only been knocked off of Mars a million years ago. This is pretty recent times from the solar system’s point of view. It turns out, there is a market for pieces of Mars that sometimes get through the atmosphere to fall to earth. The pieces are usually much smaller than this, and so far, scientists have identified only 61 such fallings from Mars. The going rate for a piece of Mars
is about $1,000 per gram, so this thing is worth a great deal of money. Various buyers came to see the rock in Paris. And as it turned out, the finder of it agreed to sell it to a museum so it wouldn’t be chipped into little pieces. Two collectors of Mars rocks, Darryl Pitt, a manager of jazz musicians and David Gheesling, a collector from Atlanta, agreed to broker the sale of the rock from the owner and send this person a six-figure advance to secure the purchase. Daryl Pitt e-mailed the American Museum of Natural History in New York to see if they wanted it, but never got a response. He then contacted the Natural History Museum (continued on next page)
YOU TOO, SIR, COULD BE MR. AMAGANSETT By David Lion Rattiner The third annual Mr. Amagansett Pageant is taking place on February 25 at the Stephen Talkhouse and a lot of men are getting ready to participate in one of the fiercest competitions that takes place in the Hamptons. The Mr. Amagansett Pageant is a benefit to support the Donald T. Sharkey Memorial Community Fund which provides scholarship opportunities for local students, funds for local fire departments and the Wounded Warrior Project. Don Sharkey was a beloved building inspector for the town who died unexpectedly at the age of 46. The event is essentially an all-male beauty pageant judged by a panel that is exclusively female. Last year, Amagansett Talkhouse owner Peter Honerkamp was going to win the
prestigious title of Mr. Amagansett, but was reportedly disqualified for—some said—“trying to bribe the judges.” The winning title went to Ken Wessberg, who was representing the East Hampton Town Fire Department. The winner of the event is hailed by wearing a white robe with an “A” sewn on the back, a king’s crown and a ceremonial dance. During the 2011 competition, Nick Kraus, the well-known Stephen Talkhouse manager, made a professional film that included quotes from Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson explaining to Kraus that Amagansett is not its own Town, but a hamlet of East Hampton. It’s all for a lot of fun, and a lot of fun it is. Honerkamp explained to me over the telephone that he will be doing another movie of this year’s competition.
“The routines are different each year,” Peter said. “Sometimes guys tell jokes, sometimes they take off shirts, we never really know. Nick and I each do a movie, my take is going to be ‘The Most Interesting Man in the World’ video this year and I know Nick is doing a movie that will undoubtedly attack me. A lot of women come to the event and it is pretty hilarious, and it’s all for charity. It’s all really ridiculous but it’s a lot of fun.” When we heard about the Mr. Amagansett competition at the Dan’s Papers offices, we all discussed what it would take to earn such a prestigious title. After a little bit of brainstorming, we have come up with some advice for potential candidates in the pageant (continued on next page)

in London who agreed to take it, paying an undisclosed amount. According to The New York Times, Pitt went to Kennedy Airport and picked up the piece of Mars when it came in. At first, after putting it in a backpack, he bicycled it to midtown where he tried to interest Comedy Central producers to put it on “The Colbert Report,” but they were suspicious of this offer and turned it away. After that, he went to his jazz club where he met up with Dr. Sara Russell and Dr. Caroline Smith, head of meteorites and cosmic mineralogy and curator of meteorites, respectively, of the London Museum, who then,
Mr.
by prearrangement, took it to the offices of The New York Times to show it to reporters, and after that out to Kennedy where it went through security as carry-on luggage and then off to London to where it is now. An interesting question is—how does something weighing 2.5 pounds get off Mars? Did Mars cough it up or spit it out? Did something a million years ago strike that planet a glancing blow? Mars has an atmosphere too, so it must have been a mighty hit. And what was this thing doing for the past million years flying around in space before coming down to Morocco?

who are looking to earn the title of “Mr. Amagansett.” Don’t try to win over the judges by displaying your uncanny ability at solving difficult mathematical problems on a chalkboard. If you have a beer belly, don’t fight it, embrace it. If you are planning on doing a film for your entry, don’t even bother, Nick and Peter have that on lock down. Don’t attempt to dance to impress the judges if you can, in fact, dance. If you are going to tell jokes during the judging process, avoid telling clean jokes. If you consider drinking a skill, you have come to the right beauty pageant. If you are from an area that is outside of the Hamptons, you better be really, really,
This also leads to the question of whether or not there are landing on Mars pieces of the Earth. I don’t know about you, but I never heard of stuff getting through the Earth’s atmosphere going outbound without jet propulsion. I do recall a report that during the very violent Hurricane of 1938, official papers from the Village of Westhampton Beach floated to a small town in New Hampshire. But that’s not Mars. I’d like to think of maybe an empty beer can clattering down on the Martian desert, or maybe the front bumper from a Dodge Ram. There’s no predicting any of this stuff.

NYU Celebrates Underground Newspaper, East Village Other By Dan Rattiner On Tuesday, February 28, I am going to be on a panel in the city sponsored by NYU to celebrate a newspaper. It’s a big deal. No it is not Dan’s Papers. It is a newspaper that you probably never heard of, because it was founded in Manhattan in 1965 by myself and two other men and went out of business very spectacularly in 1972, one might have thought never to be heard from again. That this newspaper is going to be celebrated with speeches, copies of the newspaper to review, and with a big crowd on hand there at 20 Cooper Square in the very heart of where it was published for those seven years, is largely because it was, with The Berkeley Barb, the
first underground newspaper in America. It also was a clarion call for the establishment of other underground newspapers around the country—eventually there would be over 100 of them in cities everywhere—and it marked the beginning, in 1965, of a rebellion in America against the establishment to right the wrongs of the strict 1950s culture that had come before. We had short hair when we founded this. We had long hair when the movement, known as the hippie movement was at its peak in the early 1970s and after that, when the hippie movement faded away, what remained, all of it caused by these rebels in the late 60s and early 70s, were major changes in America. The rebellion was largely fueled by drugs,
which put these millions of hippies that came down the pike at that time in a good mood. People in the movement wondered why everybody was not in this mood. The good mood manifested itself in bellbottoms, beads, headbands and ponytails and led to protests to other outrageous acts to end a senseless war in Vietnam. It also espoused legalizing marijuana, an end to segregation, the awakening of free and uncensored eroticism and sex in movies, TV and the media, and the backlash against the Lyndon Johnson and later the Richard Nixon administrations. As you probably know, Johnson left after one term (continued on next page)
ARE THESE THE SIGNS OF THE TIMES? by Kelly Laffey Picture this: It’s October 2020. The New York Mets are in the playoffs. They beat the Cardinals in the National League Division Series. Long Island goes crazy. They sweep the Cubs in the National League Championship Series. Chicago cries. Long Island screams. “We’re going to the World Series for the first time in 20 years!” The East End is ecstatic. The die-hards are tired of Hamptons Collegiate Baseball being the best show in town. Orange and blue signs pop up on various lawns. Small, innocuous, temporary signs that say “Let’s Go Mets!” “Ya Gotta Believe!” “It’s Amazin’!” How unlikely is this scenario? Extremely. And not because the Mets are in such a
sad state of disarray that even hoping for a championship run in 2020 seems too ridiculous. It’s because in many villages and East End areas, signs are an extremely hot-button issue. And erecting a temporary sports sign on your property will earn you, at the very least, quite a few angry stares. “Concerns about signs come up a lot,” affirmed Georgia Welch, North Haven Village Clerk. Signs, particularly real estate signs and signs advertising businesses affiliated with building construction, have been in the news a lot lately, as East Enders worry about their size, location and proliferation on properties throughout the area. “We don’t want to look like Coney Island,” said Chris Tehan, Shelter Island Town Building
Inspector. Shelter Island’s sign laws have been cited as an example of a town that has successfully curtailed the size of permitted signs. According to town law, real estate signs must be temporary, and their area must not exceed 1.5 square feet. Additional stipulations regulate construction and commercial signs, and temporary signs advertising events of general interest are allowed, provided they are removed within 24 hours. Shelter Island, however, is also on the more forgiving side when it comes to signs. They try to rely on the good neighbor policy, allowing residents to advertise businesses and events, as long as they respect the surrounding area. (continued on page 18)

and later Nixon was caught in a scandal and had to resign. Oddly, the hippie movement did not champion the causes of women or blacks at first. They began their own campaigns separately, and it did not espouse gay rights which came much later. I think it is fair to say that what we started in the fall of 1965 had a considerable impact on America. In a certain way, America was no fun before that. There were rules. After that, the stuffed shirts came to see it in their own way, and fun came to rule. I have, as it has turned out, a few copies of the early editions of the East Village Other (EVO) in my home. I had articles, often many of them, in the early editions. But they were more about fun and storytelling which is what I do. I
come from an upper middle class background. In the 1950s and early 1960s, we were the beatniks, sitting in coffee houses playing chess, listening to folk music and talking about a rebellion against The Man. But we never had the courage to do anything about it. And then, on a newsstand on the corner of Sixth Avenue and Eighth Street in October of 1965, I saw this wild and wonderful four page newspaper called the East Village Other— actually it was one page, all folded up with type and headlines and drawings going in every different direction so you had to fold it out to read it, like a huge roadmap, but turning it every which way as you read. The content, I thought, was sensational. All the things I dreamed about but never did—

the legalization of marijuana, popping drugs,, enjoying sexual freedom, lifting censorship, ending the war, freedom of obscene speech (obscene speech was just, well, speech)—were in it. I also thought I could make a success of this as a wild and angry competitor to the very established Village Voice. My thinking did not have to do with money. I had founded Dan’s Papers in Montauk as a summer newspaper in 1960 and had what money I needed to get by. I had just rented an apartment in the city for the winter because I liked the city, such as it was. I would be going back to my summer newspaper in the spring of 1966. But this just looked too important to pass up. This was a newspaper like no other, and I wanted to be part of it, get it on its feet and make it happen. And I had nothing else to particularly do that winter. On the spot on that streetcorner, I called the telephone number that was in the paper, and talked to Walter Bowart, who had put this out. He invited me over. He had a loft at Second Street and Avenue B. I have to tell you that the city at this time was not only not fun, it was downright dangerous. There were bums in the gutter, metal garbage cans overflowing with crap. People getting mugged. Places in the city you should never go. As I walked over to his place, I passed a policeman openly smoking weed. On another day, sitting at the bar called The Ninth Circle, I watched another policeman walk in, go to the bar, be handed a bag of something, and walk back out. I have to say right here that the city which is now a celebration of everything wonderful, probably owes that fact to the hippie movement and, in particular shortly after that, to Mayor Lindsay, who among other things legalized outdoor cafes. The result of my meeting with Walter was the formation of a three-way partnership between he and I and a friend of his called Allen Katzman. We all put up $500 and each got three of nine shares of this corporation! YES! This was founded in the same way that a big oil company or media conglomerate gets founded. We issued stock! I put mine in the bottom of the sock drawer of my bedroom dresser in my apartment on West Tenth Street. And so we were underway. By the next spring, having organized the paper with a distributor, delivered much of it in the Jeep which I brought in from Montauk, hired a salesman on no salary but 15% of sales, went out selling myself on St. Marks Place, and moving the paper first to bi-weekly at the beginning of February, and then weekly, I made this amazing thing happen. The paper operated out of a storefront office we rented on Avenue A between Ninth and Tenth Street looking out at what at that time were the weeds, garbage and an occasional bum sleeping in the remains of what was apparently once a very nice park, known as Tompkins Square Park. All sorts of crazy people joined in with this. I met cartoonist R. Crumb, Timothy Leary (Tune In, Turn On, Drop Out) Abbie Hoffman (who later, before he went on the lam, lived for awhile with his wife Anita Kushner in Sag Harbor), Ed Sanders, Tuli Kupferberg (who wrote an absolutely outrageous and pornographic book —and that I felt almost embarrassed to read here I was in freedom-of-everything-central) and a host of others from nudists, musicians (continued on page 18)

Who’s Here By Joan Baum So what would 89-year old East Hampton resident and former Tuskegee Airman Lee Archer Hayes like to do for his 90th birthday? A chuckle, the voice warm, clear, resonant, he doesn’t miss a beat: “make it.” His humor and the exactitude of his remembered incidents about his life in the nation’s unique—and segregated— World War II Army Air Corps unit, The Tuskegee Airmen, would make many younger folk envious—and the modesty and grace with which he talks about being black in the South in the 1940s (“some bad stuff”), after growing up on a friendly all-white street in Amagansett, instructive. Born in Virginia, Hayes’ family moved to The East End when he was nine, after his father’s job in a sawmill disappeared during The Depression. An uncle who lived in Sagaponack got his father a job on a dairy farm, and his parents and siblings soon found themselves the only blacks around in their new community. Significantly, Hayes suffered no racism and in fact was welcomed enough by his neighbors to be called a “Bonacker.” His factchecker kicks in, amid another chuckle. He has a 267 telephone prefix, so everyone thinks he lives in Amagansett, but it’s really East Hampton, though close to the border and reflecting a time when 324 telephone lines were put in on his street. After attending the Amagansett School, he went to East Hampton High School, where his passion was “math, physics too.” These were easy subjects for him (he particularly loved geometry) and would stand him in good stead when he got into a training unit as a navigator/bombadier. He had had to drop out of high school after three years, however, to help support his family—he was the oldest of 13 children. He had always wanted to fly but his mother repeatedly said no. He kept after her. She finally yielded, but by then (1943), 21-year-old Lee Hayes was drafted into the Army, which meant into a segregated unit. His dream to fly remained. Despite being told that it was fruitless for a black man to apply to be a pilot (and that he needed at least two years of college), he and a friend took the test required of potential candidates and did so well—actually coming out Number 1 and Number 2—and finishing the exam long before the time limit—that there was no way he would be denied entry into the flight training program. Being stationed, though, in Florida, Mississippi, Kentucky, Texas, as well as in Tuskegee, Alabama, home base for pilot training, he faced a different kind of denial.
of the story, but he firmly refused to say what happened. What was the point, he told them, “You won’t believe me, anyway.” He was not correct. His account was duly noted even by an Inspector General sent down from Washington D.C., he was told. He would not be disciplined. On the other hand, he would not receive an apology. The idea was not to make waves. Not long after this incident, he went to the movies on the base where, traditionally, blacks had to sit in the balcony. Another delicious chuckle: An usher came to greet him: “Where would you like to sit, sir?” Arguably, Hayes’ most disturbing confrontation with segregation was the Alabama landing lights issue. He and three training buddies were in their B-25, getting ready to land. It was night. As per regulations, he called in to the control tower for info about wind direction, speed, possible obstacles. As part of this routine they would give their plane number. It was TU108. Instructors were white. The plane number would have made it clear who Hayes was, the “T” standing for Tuskegee, and Tuskegee standing for the all-black unit. There was also, it was said, a giveaway “voice tone,” though he had been told that his own was not easy to place. There was no problem, however, placing the motive of the control tower personnel in what they went on to do. Instead of providing “only runway lights,” which Hayes had requested, the tower saturated the field with blinding floodlights. Despite repeated calls, the floodlights remained. Fortunately, the plane, which did go off course because of what the floods did to depth perception, barely missed a 100-foot embankment, Hayes working the brakes just short of a friction fire. How convenient had it gone otherwise. He says quietly but with that tell-tale chuckle— then it could have been said that the boys “just killed themselves.” The war ended one month before Hayes finished his flight training (thus, Hayes never saw action, but the story of the Tuskegee airmen was recently told in the 2012 movie Red Tails.) However, Hayes had, in effect, been fighting a different kind of war at home for civil and human rights. When he came back to East Hampton and brought his discharge papers to EHHS, he was, to his surprise and delight, given a diploma, and then encouraged to go to college at Farmingdale State, which he did. He studied aircraft maintenance and operation. And he finally did get a commercial license. And he found professional work in
Lee Hayes Tuskegee Airman
“Hayes came to understand the importance of his recollections when a stranger came up to thank him for clearing the path for African Americans.” He remembers being told in Mississippi not to “step off the base” because “who knows.” And then there was the incident in Midland, Texas where he went for more bombardier training. He had boarded a bus and, seeing a free seat, took it. It was not in the back of the bus, and it was next to a white girl. An MP soon showed up—MPs were white—and told him to move to the back. He replied, probably as evenly as he recounts the event, “I don’t see a seat back there.” He was at this point a cadet, the MP “an ordinary sergeant.” He was “manhandled” and he struck back. It was not long before the “ruckus” became a cause celebre. Military officers arrived to get his side

Signs
(continued from page 15)
The key is to keep the signs from becoming a nuisance to other residents. “We try to make it fair, but keep it contained,” said Tehan. Across the bay, East Hampton Village is currently at the forefront of the sign discussion, as they seek to limit the size of contractor, builder, real estate and similar home industry signs. The village currently allows for signs to be as large as seven square feet, but the East Hampton Village Board has most recently talked about limiting them to an 18 by 18 inch square. If a new sign proposal eventually passes, it could include a slew of additional stipulations touching on the color, location, amount of text allowed and the time limit such signs can be posted, among other restrictions. The Village of North Haven has also recently spent some time in the news regarding its sign laws. There was a polarizing outcry in response
EVO
to statements rendered at the January 7 Village Board Meeting when Trustee Jeff Sander suggested that the village should do away with virtually all signs. North Haven has been considering adopting a new sign code for a few months, largely in response to a handmade wooden sign marking 114 Ferry Road that has drawn complaints as an eyesore. “I think he (Sander) said it as a joke,” said Welch. “We’re still in the researching stage as far as developing new sign laws.” Currently, the Village of North Haven code prohibits, “Signs made of cardboard, paper, canvas or similar impermanent material.” Strike one, Mets fans. For the record, I’m all for injecting a little subtly into an area often overrun with extravagant gestures of glitz and glam. And I can understand that people don’t want sections
of the Hamptons to turn into that house from My Big Fat Greek Wedding, with statues and lawn ornaments littering the front yard of an otherwise manicured suburban street. But, Mets fans may be able to take a page out of a Tampa Bay Lightning faithful’s book, should the Amazins’ reaffirm our fandom and showing support via signage be an issue. After the hockey team made the 2011 playoffs, Steven Paul, a Tampa- area homeowner, put a temporary white and blue GO BOLTS sign in his front yard. He received a notice informing him that the sign was in direct violation of his Homeowners Association laws. But Paul zoned in on the positive aspects of the letter—security signs are permitted. So, he did what any True Blue fan would do, he took a Sharpie to his white sign, and wrote in “PROTECTED BY GO BOLTS SECURITY.” Problem solved.
As for my three shares of stock, I eventually sold it at a moment around 1970 when EVO was printing 60 pages and selling 30,000 copies weekly. I sold it to a man who was the twin brother of one of the other founders, an accountant at a shoe company and with whose expertise we had started the company. He paid me the $500 I had invested for it. Next Tuesday will largely be a reunion of all the people who came to be part of EVO in the years that followed. I was there five months. There are lots of wild accounts that begin, “when I arrived in 1968, I found…” Almost
none of these people were there at the start. I intend to have a really great time, and my only regret is that this event takes place on a Tuesday, at a time when I am supposed to be in Southampton overseeing the editorial part of Dan’s Papers, and staying until we get it off, at the push of a button, to the printer in New Jersey. I intend to take the day off though. The staff can do it without me that day. This event is open to the public. To attend, go online to www.eastvillageother.org and reserve tickets. This is going to be quite the scene.

(one woman, Charlotte Moorman, played the cello naked), rock promoters and rock stars and all manner of other characters. However, my time was relatively short at EVO. I left for the sunshine in April, by which time the paper was selling 8,000 copies a week and getting more outrageous and raunchier by the minute. Meanwhile, I was expanding Dan’s Papers to Westhampton, the North Fork and even to Block Island (The Block Island Times, which I founded, is still in business today. I sold it years ago. It is now a well-respected and official newspaper on that island.)

TWENTY SOMETHING by David Lion Rattiner
It’s the end of February in the Hamptons
To defeat the boredom, I find myself having frequent, long and interesting philosophical conversations with my friends about the economy, health and philosophy. I shall start with the economy, my favorite subject, because when you understand it you can make some real money investing in the markets. So what do I think will happen? My opinion is that this continued effort of constant economic
Breaking News MECOX SAILING SCHOOL APPROVED By Kelly Laffey The Mecox Sailing Association, an organization seeking to resurrect children’s sailing lessons on Mecox Bay, has been given the OK by the Southampton Town Board to use the town-owned facilities at Mecox Bay Park. The Mecox Bay Sailing Association Inc. is a not-for-profit organization that seeks to teach sailing to Southampton’s youth and to allow Southampton families to enjoy sailing on the bay. The Association is seeking to revive the old Mecox Bay Yacht Club, which established a rich tradition of teaching children to sail, but closed in 1990 after almost 100 years in operation. “(We are) simply about sailing: the teaching of sailing to children of Southampton Town residents and the promotion of sailing for those in our community who are not fortunate enough to live on or near the water, own a boat or trailer, or afford expensive mooring fees...” the Association maintains on its website. However, the board’s February 14 resolution vote came despite the fact that homeowners in the area have successfully received a temporary restraining order in an effort to block the club. Among other concerns, opponents of the plan worry about the amount of traffic and congestion that would occur on the fragile body of water. The Sailing Association has emphasized that it would be a modest, affordable and familyoriented program. The Mecox Bay Civic Association and homeowners in the area filed a lawsuit against the Town of Southampton and the Mecox Sailing Association Inc. on September 7, 2011. The lawsuit claims that the Town was in violation of its own code in regard to its decision of whether to conduct an environmental evaluation of the proposed facility. The town has asked for the restraining order, which has halted the necessary clearing of wetlands, to be rescinded, with the next court date set for March 2, 2012.
stimulus is both unavoidable because of our political system and because of how many people rely on that stimulus and also vote. I continue to believe that this is leading us down the road of complete economic disaster on a global scale, and within the next five years, we are going to experience it. In the meantime however, this stimulus is sort of like a drug, it feels good short term, destroys you long term. There is no doubt in my mind that at some point we are going to experience QE3, and then QE4 and they will go as long as they can before the world catches on that the global economy, and most importantly, the American financial system, is operating in a way that is similar to how the real estate bubble was created and the subsequent jobs that were created and lost because of it. We are continuing to operate with credit on top of credit. So what can you do?
Well I will tell you what I am doing. I think that this endless stimulus for the short term, is very positive for both the stock market and for precious metals and the reason is because companies can gain confidence with their businesses because they feel confident that the money that is flowing into the system will continue to come, and I also think it is good for precious metals because as the government continues to do this, the currency will be further and further devalued. I believe that stocks will rise faster in the short term than precious metals. So I think that if you are looking to protect your wealth, stocks, high quality stocks of course, are a safer bet than keeping your money in the bank or under your mattress. I also feel the same way with gold long term. 2012 will be a good year for stocks, (continued on next page)

HAMPTONS EPICURE Stacy Dermont
I’m as pissed as a chicken in a diaper!
I’ve been addicted to magazines since I was 12 years old. My mom gave me a subscription to Seventeen. It lifted me out of my little farmhouse bedroom into a world of perfectly pressed Oxford shirts, Buffalo checks and dirndl skirts modeled by Whitney Houston, Phoebe Cates and other skinny girls with white teeth. Not everyone pictured owned barn clothes. Topics other than cooking and taxes were discussed. The world of Seventeen gave me something to aspire to. I moved on to Vogue and W. In recent years I’ve become addicted to shelter magazines. I guess I’ve always been chasing the aesthetic of melding country with city, vintage with modern. I stand accused, by my husband, of being an “urban farmgirl.” He defines the urban farmgirl as one obsessed with farmers markets and antique and yard sale “crap.” Guilty. But last year I had to let my subscription to the magazine MaryJane’s Farm slide. It’s pretty much the same magazine every issue with
20some
rolled out of bed the next morning all excited to check on our chick, ho-boy did we get a life lesson. That marked chick was as flat as the newspaper under it and all the other chicks ran over it, back and forth, as if it wasn’t there. Pecking order. Mom shoulda known better. She tried. Let this be a lesson to you: DON’T POLISH YOUR CHICKEN’S NAILS. So much for MaryJane’s Farm. At least I still have Country Living magazine, Country Living British Edition, Romantic Homes and The New York Times special sections to live for, right? Nope, not anymore. The March edition of Country Living arrived in my home yesterday. The cover depicts a nice, long wooden table in a vintagey, eat-in kitchen surrounded by CHUNKS OF TREE TRUNK, with the alllower-case-cool headline “the best of country style.” This is an offense to my intelligence and my heritage. No one from the country—any country—was ever stupid enough to sit on a stump unless they had to. Chunks of wood will do for a brief sit-down when you’re camping or logging—that’s it, folks. Depicted within the magazine is the wood’s proud owner, one Carla Malloy of Ojai California, sipping tea while seated at the table. The photo does not include a view of her seated parts on the wood. That couldn’t be photogenic. She’s smiling in the photo but in her eyes and the firm set of her jaw I detect the distinct, underlying message “Damn, my boney ass is sore!” Don’t let this happen to you. (As if Gourmet magazine going out of business wasn’t enough hellishness for one lifetime!) Believe in the power of chairs. Chairs are for sitting! Chickens are for eggs!
true for some people more than others. I know a lot of unhealthy people who don’t seem to be as tired as I feel after I just ate McDonald’s for breakfast. For me personally, I believe strongly that doing a diet that is mostly whole grains and vegetables is the ideal thing, and I just try to avoid oils, cheeses, meat and fats and all of that other stuff. Of course, I pretty much fail at this on a daily basis. But if you can keep that mentality you will feel pretty good most of the time. The other thing that I think is really important is to pay attention to how many calories you are eating in a day. There is a great app on iTunes called My Fitness App
and it is basically a food diary. I’ve been using it and have been trying to keep my diet under 2,500 calories. I’m STUNNED as to how little food this is and the reality of how much food I used to eat before. I highly recommend this app. It gives you the confidence that you ate enough food for the day when psychologically it feels like you ate very little because you are so used to eating a ton of food. It’s very helpful. Okay, so now philosophy. Well it looks to me like I’m at the end of my word limit here, so I’ll give you my favorite, simple, life philosophy quote… Enjoy the process, because it’s all process.
he has spoken in schools during Black History Month, and this year he was honored at the Suffolk County Historical Society in Riverhead with a plaque and testimony to his achievement in helping blacks overcome 300 years of “adversity and limited opportunities” to serve and lead. The year 2012 marks 100 years since a northern philanthropist by the name of Julius Rosenwald (president of Sears, Roebuck & Co.) gave a man he greatly admired by the name of Booker T. Washington seed money to start a school for the vocational training and economic advancement of American blacks in the rural South. The school, known then as The Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute For Colored
People, now Tuskegee University, was located in the county seat of Macon, Alabama, in the east-central part of the state. Approximately 30 years after that, a new flight training facility was opened not far from Tuskegee at Moton Field, named for Robert Russa Moton, who took over as principal of Tuskegee after the death of Booker T. Washington in 1915. Though the origin of “Tuskegee” is uncertain, it’s been suggested by some folk etymologists that it’s related to “Taska” which means “warrior” in Muskhogean, the language of a Southern branch of an Alabama Indian tribe. Apocryphal? Perhaps, but how apt, if not, considering what Lee Hayes fought for in his own quiet, determined way.

2013 will be an amazing year for gold. That’s just my prediction and it has been for a while. It’s just advice, YOU CAN DO OR THINK WHATEVER THE HELL YOU WANT TO DO! THIS IS AMERICA. Okay, the second thing is health. I cannot even begin to tell you what a challenge it is to understand your own body and to keep it healthy. The older I get, the harder this is to deal with, and the more nonsense gets thrown around. One of my office workers is currently on the Atkins diet, a diet I hate, but seems to work for him. My opinion on health? First off, you’ve absolutely got to take it seriously or you will feel like crap all of the time. I think this is
Who
features on sewing, cooking, chickens and vintage quotes and photos. But in my opinion they took it too far when they featured an article on how to keep chickens in your home. INSIDE you home—in an antique baby crib next to your bed...I could not make this up—it gets “even better.” An integral part of living in a glorified chicken coop is DIAPERING your flock. Wait, there’s still more. It’s not just about tying a chicken diaper around Henny with a big, colorful ribbon tied on top (as if this image isn’t freakish enough) but, naturally, you’re going to line her homesewn, muslin diaper with ORGANIC coffee filters… The proud owner of a bediapered beast stands holding her pet in the accompanying photo that shows that the chicken’s talons are freshly polished to a bright red. Pedicured poultry. Argh! Lemme tell you a thing or three about real country. When I was a little kid we ordered chicks through the mail every spring. Elmer was a good mailman who made a point of bringing our chicks all the way to our door, so they didn’t get too cold down by the mailbox. We kept them under lights in the laundry room (you might call it a “mud room”) only as long as we had to before they had enough feathers to survive in the coop. One time my mom decided we kids were going to learn something. She used a red marker to put a noticeable mark on one of the chick’s legs. She said we’d watch that chick especially as it grew. We’d monitor it (and not slaughter it) to better understand the life cycle of the chicken. Okay, mom. We kids probably argued over what to name our special chick. When we

carpentry and construction. It might also be said that he found a new career talking about his experiences. A self-effacing man, Hayes came to understand the importance of his recollections when, after a talk one day at Brookhaven National Laboratory, a stranger in the audience, a black man who identified himself as a commercial pilot, came up to thank him for clearing the path for African Americans. He’s told these stories before, Hayes says almost apologetically, but adds, “I can always tell them again,” and he does, with good humor, faithfulness to the facts and an appreciation of what the stories mean—or should mean— especially to new generations.

HAMPTON BAYS
By Dan Rattiner Week of February 24 – March 1, 2012 Riders this week: 11,412 Rider miles this week: 106,444 DOWN IN THE TUBE Commissioner Aspinall and his wife Agnes made their annual tour of all the subway stops, as they do every year on the anniversary of the discovery of this antique subway system, originally built in secret to store New York City Subway building supplies in 1932, but then discovered on this day, March 1, 2006, by workmen in Sag Harbor digging to find out how deep a superfund oil spill had leaked. The Commissioner and his Missus were greeted by happy throngs at every stop where one after the other, they would get off onto the platform, shake some hands, then get on to the next train to the next station. They completed the circuit back and got back to Hampton Bays in less than two hours, and then repaired to Laface to Lafeet Spa in Hampton Bays for wellearned massages. GIRAFFE
Trains were delayed for 20 minutes on Tuesday as environmentalists worked to clear a giraffe out of the tunnel between Westhampton and Quiogue. There must be quite a story attached to how he got there. He was eating some really nasty stuff off the ceiling of the tunnel adjacent to the electric lights. It was easy to get him up and onto the platform at Westhampton, but hell getting him up the escalator to the street. Nine environmentalists participated. BASKETBALL Jeremy Lin of the New York Knicks was reported to be out looking for a mansion out by the beach in Southampton this week. Our spies say he seems to be willing to spend $12 million give or take a few mill. High ceilings are a must. He spent a half hour riding from Southampton to East Hampton, and was seen in the subway car on the way back eating a slice of pizza from Sam’s. NEW SLOGANS Pretty soon you will be seeing our new advertising slogans in Dan’s Papers and on our stationery. The Commissioner said we need to have slogans, and our new marketing
director Charlie Chan agreed. But Chan also said we should have two so people would be surprised when they saw it was one, not the other. The two personally chosen by the Commissioner are WHY GO TO THE BEACH WHEN YOU CAN RIDE THE SUBWAY? Also HAMPTON SUBWAY IS HARMFUL UA AND UB RADIATION FREE. WHY TAKE A RISK? The campaign is targeted at Mr. Sun. It’s a bullseye, in our opinion. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE I invited President Obama to come join Agnes and I on our annual tootle around the system. There were the adoring crowds that I know he is familiar with, but I don’t think the invitation got all the way to his desk. I received a reply on White House stationery with his signature at the bottom saying that he was honored to have been invited, had put it in his schedule to attend, but then at the last minute something came up with Iran and he had to beg off. It just didn’t sound like the way the President writes. Next Monday I will be in New York City to meet with Mayor Bloomberg and the Commissioner of the New York Subway System Robert O’Leary, and the head of the MTA Joseph Lhota, to look into whether it might be a good idea for Hampton Subway to buy the New York Subway System. The subway system is badly run, losing money daily and the City wants to get it off its hands. I’m told they might sell it to us for $1.

“I Learned the Truth at Seventeen...”
First off, congratulations to Kelsey McGayhey, whose basketball jersey is being retired, for her fantastic feat of scoring more than 1,000 points in her high school basketball career. Kelsey’s mother, Patty, is my best gal pal. Since I make Patty laugh, and that keeps her happy, which insures she makes meals and takes care of Kelsey, I figure I can take credit for at least five of those basketball points. I don’t want to make a big deal, I don’t expect a parade or anything, but without those five points, Kelsey would only have 995 points...no need to thank me Kelsey, it was my pleasure. Of course, it’s easy for me to be happy about high school sports stars now, but when I was in high school, I hated them. They were so coordinated and moved so fast, they were always picked first. I was always picked last. Even when I was in shape, I wasn’t in shape. I never excelled, or even hit mediocre in any sport, unless you count dodgeball—I was good at dodging, but that was it. I was in the brainiac group. I couldn’t compete with my feet, but I could gain with my brain.

I think it was Dorothy self-esteem. I was home on Parker who said, “Live as leave from the Army. I had long as you like, the first 20 a job I loved. I was stationed years are the longest half of in Denver and having the your life.” I find that to be time of my life. She was so true. The most painful working in a coffee shop things ever said to us are and I was her customer. said by other students in She was pregnant, not high school. Being branded married—which was a big deal at the time—and looked a freak, or some other exhausted. We recognized moniker that served to each other and even though separate and alienate you I had sworn I’d beat her to a from your peers is a painful pulp if I ever saw her again, memory your entire life. my anger turned to pity in a Time gives it perspective, flash. A look passed between but it only takes a moment us and I could tell she felt of thought to remember embarrassed to be serving the pain. I recall teachers me when she knew what always reminding us, as a monster she had been. I’m sure they do today, that we shouldn’t give My future was as bright as too much import to other her future was dull and we both knew it. There was no people’s opinions, it’s our shortage of boyfriends in own opinions that count. But speaking as an ugly the Army, even for an ugly duckling, emotional duckling, I had money now, bullying is a tough I was having fun and looking experience to survive with forward to the future. “Isn’t high school fabulous?” My tab was about $3.57 dignity and I doubt it has for a coffee and bagel, I left her a $5 tip, just to changed. What we can’t know in high school is that, it rub it in. I knew it would humiliate her to feel really does all come to a sudden and abrupt end grateful for a generous tip from me. Now, as a mature adult, I realize how unkind at graduation. As soon as we’re out of school, we could care less what some former popular that was. If I could go back in time today, I’d girl said about us. like to think that I would have said something My sweetest high school revenge was about nice to her and left an appropriate tip. Yes, I’d a year after graduation, I ran into her, “the like to think that. But I know damn good and most cool girl,” in the class. She was a terrible well that if I could do it all over, I’d have left emotional bully and had done a real job on my that slut the whopper tip.

NORTH FORK Jamesport Manor Inn for Lunch... By Kelly Laffey Walk into the Jamesport Manor Inn, and it’s hard to discern that this is not the original structure which dated back to about 1750 but tragically burned to the ground in October 2005. The entire building has been completely restored, and owners Matt and Gail Kar and Frank and Anne McVeigh meticulously oversaw every detail to ensure that the current structure is a virtual replica of the landmark. Key among the renovations was recreating the original manor’s two dining rooms. With their intricate woodwork and beautiful fireplaces, the dual rooms invite patrons to sample the restaurant’s unique, inventive and locally-influenced menu. Right off of the bat, I noted that this was going to be a hearty lunch – the majority of the scrumptious selections beg for longer, sit-down meals. Not that I’m complaining at all. I was perfectly content to lounge in what I deemed to be a quaint breakfast nook with a view of the outdoor patio, bask in the

sunshine streaming through the window and enjoy a relaxing lunch. We started off with an appetizer – I chose the Warm Stilton Blue Cheese Pear Halves with Endive, Balsamic Syrup and Candied Pecans, and my mom went with the Roasted Local Beet Salad with Aged Goat Cheese, Bacon, Orange Segments and Roasted Pistachios. It was hard not to order the decadentsounding Jumbo Lump Crabmeat Mac n Cheese. The dish is definitely a must-try when I go back. Both appetizers were delicious. The blue cheese and warm pear halves are an incredible combination, and the salad was the perfect option for a cool winter day. The orange segments in my mom’s roasted beet salad definitely gave the dish a summery feel, which was just the thing as we both have early-onset spring fever. For our main course, we went with the Goat Cheese Pan-Roasted Organic Chicken, which came highly recommended and is accompanied with a Maple Acorn Squash Puree, Asparagus and a Red
Wine Vinegar Reduction. The chicken was delicious, and the addition of the goat cheese was like “the icing on the cake.” I opted for the Porcini Mushroom Ravioli with Melted Leeks and Haricot Verts in a Parmesan Truffle Broth. The broth infused the entire dish with a touch of sweetness, and the contrasting textures between the mushrooms, haricot verts and raviolis gave a uniquely delicious twist to a typical pasta dish. Upon hearing the dessert options, we felt compelled to end the meal with a sweet treat. I chose the Profiteroles with Gelato, which I believe is French for “an ice cream and donut sandwich drizzled with chocolate.” It’s as delicious as it sounds. Disclaimer: We were not able to finish our entire meal. But I was all too happy to have leftovers for lunch the next day.

who was luckily coerced into the field after graduating from Moore College of Art and Design in Philadelphia. Faced with the daunting task of finding employment during the recession of the early 1990s, Joyce applied for a teaching position at the Children’s Museum of Richmond in Virginia. When her future employer realized that Joyce had made puppets as Christmas gifts, he asked her if she would perform shows. Though reluctant at first, Joyce soon fell in love with the profession. “Puppetry had everything for me – I got to be creative, to work with children,� said Joyce.
Goat on a Boat
By Kelly Laffey The Hamptons have a wellestablished reputation of providing a unique haven for those looking to relax and unwind. While adults may love daydreaming about the pristine beaches and quaint Main Streets, children are always invited to cultivate their imagination at the Goat on a Boat Puppet Theatre in Sag Harbor. One of only 50 puppet theaters in the entire country, the not-for-profit Goat on a Boat Puppet Theatre provides creative, family-friendly entertainment. The theatre is the brainchild of puppeteer Liz Joyce,

Joyce performed with various touring puppet companies before coming to her sister’s Long Island home for a winter, after she’d lost her artist’s loft in Brooklyn. As the weather turner warmer, she realized that having a theater on the East End was a viable option. “It’s been nice to watch children grow up.� Joyce said. A true jack-of-all-trades, Joyce writes and performs Goat on a Boat’s original shows. She draws on inspiration from established stories and fairy tales, and provides her own take on various children’s classics. “I don’t want to preach, but I like to tuck lessons into entertainment,� said Joyce. During the winter, the shows are performed twice on Saturdays. Joyce also offers tot art and play group sessions throughout the week. Funds earned through the not-for-profit help Joyce to bring high quality entertainment to her theater, in addition to the shows that she produces herself. Joyce frequently partners with puppet theatres around the country to bring their shows to the South Fork. “As a not-for-profit, the Goat on a Boat Puppet Theatre belongs to the community,� said Joyce. “It’s a step to ensure that it will stay here – and hopefully it will.� Joyce’s investment in the community will be further evident on April 14, the National Day of Puppetry. There will be a puppet show at 11 a.m. followed by a puppet parade through Sag Harbor and a hot dog picnic with various kids’ activities. The event is free, and all are welcome to attend. The theatre will also host its annual Bambini Ball at the Bridgehampton Community House on June 30. The program raises money for the theatre, and Joyce is proud to offer an event where families can come together for two hours of dinner, crafts, dancing and, of course, a puppet show. “It’s such a sweet thing to see kids with puppets and developing internal play,� said Joyce. “To be away from the television screen – it opens up imagination.� Nowhere is the whimsy of the theatre more obvious than in its name. After deciding to begin her new venture, Joyce was standing on Sag Harbor’s Long Wharf with a friend, talking about the perks of living on a boat, when her friend casually remarked ‘You can’t have a goat on a boat!’ That nugget of unsolicited advice stuck with Joyce, as she liked that the name evoked images of (continued on page 29)

Sag Harbor Youth Center The popular nonprofit organization, the Sag Harbor Youth Center, currently housed in The Old Whalers’ Church at 44 Union Street in Sag Harbor, is right now celebrating its 37th anniversary! That’s right, some of the original “youth” are now grandparents. The Sag Harbor Youth Center was founded in 1975 by a group of local parents and community members as a alternative to hanging out unsupervised after school and on the weekends. The original funding came from a benefit concert performed by Harry Chapin held at East Hampton High School on January 17, 1975. The Youth Center still exists today for the original purposes, staying true to its roots while staying current with the needs and wants of kids today. A free year round program, the Drop-InLounge at Old Whaler’s, is open for ALL kids 10-18 years old. Hours of operation are Monday, Wednesday and Friday 2:30-6 p.m. and Saturday 1-4 p.m. Kids today enjoy all kinds of technological gadgets, and the program is ever-evolving to meet their needs and interests. However, the Youth Center offers more than gadgets. They provide activities that stimulate a young mind, encourage communication skills and relationship building. Activities include: indoor and outdoor recreation equipment, arts and crafts, board games, a pool table and Foosball table, card gaming supplies and music and musical instruments to
explore. They also supply the other things kids enjoy like computers, free WiFi, video games and movies all in a cozy living room setting. In addition, the Sag Harbor Youth Center holds themed events, special event parties and Community Service opportunities. The Sag Harbor Youth Center, like many other programs, has been affected by state and local funding cuts. The Program continues to function successfully without compromising the integrity of the service it offers. The Sag Harbor Youth Center is a 100% free program, meaning there is no cost to attend the program ever. A service like this relies heavily on grants and private donations to keep the doors open, keep the equipment up to date, in good working order and pay the bills. The Sag Harbor Youth Center is staffed by a Project Director and a Youth Worker and is
governed by a Board of Directors made up of local, dedicated parents and community members. The Project Director is Julie Davenport-Froehlich. Julie has been employed as the Director for the past six years and also has been employed by the Sag Harbor School District for 10 years. She has 25 years experience working in the Human Service field. The Youth Worker is Vincent Cafiero. “Vinny” has been employed as Youth Worker for five years and is also employed by the Bridgehampton and Southampton School Districts.

Choosing the Right Summer Camp It can be difficult to envision warm summer days when the wind is blowing and icy rain is, well, raining. However, the winter months are a great time to explore summer camp options. In fact, many camps have strict enrollment timelines that require decisions to be made. Attending summer camp has been a tradition in the United States for more than 150 years. Statistics indicate that around 30 million American kids attend summer camp each year. There are many benefits to summer camp. Camp enables children to stay engaged during the summer when there may be limited interaction with school friends. It also gives parents both a safe and viable daycare solution during the summer. Summer camp pulls together children from different neighborhoods, social classes and backgrounds, which can make it a good place to meet new people – some of whom may become lifelong friends. Camps also provide a variety of activities that can challenge children to try new things that go beyond their comfort zones. Some children are very receptive to the idea of attending summer camp. Others need a little coaxing. But summer camp should never be forced on a child who does not want to go. In such instances, consider local daytime programs that may fill the
void instead of programs that require being away from home. Once the decision for summer camp is made, there are some questions to answer. * What are your finances like? Do you have a budget for summer camp? * What size camp do you desire? * Should the camp be co-ed or single sex? * How far do you want your child to travel for summer camp? What are the options nearby? * Are there any camps that have been recommended by friends or family members? * What kinds of activities do your children enjoy? These types of questions will help you narrow down your options. Then you can visit and interview camps to find one that is the best fit. When visiting camps, go armed with a checklist of questions. Some of these can include: * What is the philosophy of the camp? * Can you explain a typical day?
* What are the types of activities and facilities offered? * What is the camper-to-counselor ratio? * What is the camp’s drug/alcohol policy? * Does the camp have insurance and security personnel? * What percentage of staff return each year? How are staff selected and trained? * What kind of health care is provided? * Can you tell me about the policy on phone calls and family visits? * What do you do in the event of emergencies? There are many different camps available. Some offer a “little bit of everything.” Others cater to academics, sports, specific hobbies or even religious preferences. Don’t wait too long to research and sign up for camps because many fill up quite early or have an extensive waiting list. That is why choosing a camp should be part of a winter to-do list.

& The view from The garden Jeanelle Myers
This year I will plant a cutting garden for at least one client. If you have the space and like to have a lot of flowers in the house, a cutting garden is a great addition and a real treat. Like a vegetable garden, it is a production garden where one can grow flowers in amounts and varieties that may not be appropriate to other beds on the property. This garden will be designed according to the specific tastes of the client but if I were to plant one for myself I would surely include gladiolus, dahlias and lilies, three of the showiest flowers for cutting. When I was a girl, my mother always planted gladiolus (we called then “glads”) in the vegetable garden. They seem to go in and out of favor but to me they say “Summer!” They are available in many colors from white to purple and can be simple to gaudy. They like full sun, well-drained soil and they may need to be staked to stand up. They are not
supposed to live through our winters, needing to be lifted, stored and replanted, but I have had the same ones blooming in my garden for five years! While I would not plan on that happening, there are some varieties that should last here in the garden in good growing conditions. Be sure to try acidanthera (Abyssinian gladiolus). To me, dahlias are the showgirls of the garden. I like them in all sizes but nothing beats a dinner plate dahlia for sheer exuberant floweriness and a big bouquet of dahlias can take my breath away. There is nothing subtle about them. Even the pure white ones are ravishing! These, also, will need full sun, good soil and a well-drained location. They will not live in our winter and will need to be lifted and stored for the winter. The larger the flower, the more staking the plant will need and if the plant is a tall one, it will need staking regardless of the size of the flowers. The results are worth the effort and I like the challenge of staking them!! They are available in so many shapes, colors and sizes that an entire garden could be made using nothing but dahlias. Now there is a thought! If dahlias are the showgirls, then lilies may be the ballerinas in that they look delicate but are very strong. There are several types of lilies that can be planted for different bloom times as well as different flower forms. However, they all like sun, well-drained soil, a ph of 6.5 to 6 and loose soil with good humus content. They do not do well at all in clay-type soil. Asiatic lilies bloom in early summer and have
generally upward facing flowers. Next, blooming in early summer, are the Longiflorum/Asiatic hybrids a cross of Asiatic and Easter lily types. In mid to late summer, the Oriental ones bloom. And there are other types including some species types that are often more challenging to grow but so rewarding if successful. I planted a martagon type, Mrs. R.O. Backhouse years ago. It did not come up for two years, after I had forgotten about it. Now that it does come up, and stronger each year, it is a true treasure. Lilies grow from two to seven feet tall, depending on the age of the bulb and the variety. Needless to say, the taller ones will need to be staked. Lilies do not need to be lifted for the winter, and when happy, will increase in size until they need to be dug up and split. They, like dahlias, are available in many colors and sizes and if the gardener chooses carefully, there can be lilies blooming most of the summer in the garden. Gladiolus, dahlias and lilies can also be grown in the borders and beds to be cut or not. This is the time of year to order them. It may take the lilies a year to begin blooming fully. Be sure to buy good quality bulbs and plant them carefully for years of flowers. For dahlias I recommend Swan Island Dahlias and for gladiolus and lilies, Brent and Becky’s Bulbs. Both are online and very reliable, supplying top quality bulbs and tubers. For gardening discussion call Jeanelle Myers at 631-434-5067.

& 1. Rinse the scallops and dry well with paper towels. Place panko breadcrumbs on a large plate and season with paprika, salt and pepper. Coat scallops on both sides in seasoned mixture. Arrange scallops one layer deep in a broiler pan. Broil for 1/2 to 2 minutes on one side; remove pan from oven, turn each one with tongs and broil for 1 minute longer. 2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a small saucepan. When scallops are done, they should be springy to the touch and slightly undercooked. Serve on warm plates with a drizzle of butter and lemon garnish. CRUSTED SCALLOPS WITH CITRUS SAUCE Dust the scallops with panko, Japanese-style breadcrumbs for added crunch. Serves 4

Enjoy scallops any time of year
Sweet, succulent scallops are one of the joys of the table throughout the year. This versatile shellfish seems to be a favorite among restaurant diners as I have noted dining with friends and relatives here in Miami Beach. Yet scallops are quick and easy to cook with the minimal preparation needed to give the dish some oomph! Here are some guidelines. Be sure to remove the tough, shiny white muscle along each scallop. Rinse and pat dry; scallops must be very dry before cooking. They can be sautéed, broiled or added to a fish stew. Prepare your mise-en-place – (everything in readiness) before cooking scallops, which literally cook in minutes. For the broiled scallop recipe below arrange the breadcrumbs and seasonings on a large plate to coat scallops before cooking. Place the butter in a small saucepan to heat through while the scallops broil, then serve with the melted butter and squirt of lemon. When sautéing scallops, get your skillet hot before hitting the pan with the scallops so that they sear quickly while retaining their moist interior. We’re in citrus country here in Florida and of course there’s no shortage of a variety of citrus up North. It’s the perfect time of the year to prepare panko-crusted scallops with citrus sauce. BROILED SEA SCALLOPS WITH MELTED BUTTER These seafood jewels cook quickly and served immediately, otherwise their moisture content and flavor is greatly diminished. Serves 4 1 pound sea scallops, tough side muscle discarded 3 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs 2 to 3 dashes paprika Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted Lemon wedges for garnish

Slice the orange peel into julienne and blanch in boiling water for 1 minute. Drain and reserve. 2. Rinse scallops and pat dry with paper towels. Put the panko bread crumbs on a plate and season with salt, pepper and paprika. Dredge the scallops in the mixture to coat. 3. Heat a cast iron skillet or sturdy sauté pan over medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the oil and 1 tablespoon butter, and when butter foam subsides put in the scallops. Sear the scallops until barely opaque, about 1 1/2 minutes each side. You (continued on page 34)

1. Chop almonds finely in a food processor, being careful not to over process to a paste, and mix with spices in a bowl. 2. Heat combined oils in a large skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile rinse scallops and dry very well with paper towels. Place them on a tray seasoned lightly with sea salt and toss to mix. Add scallops to the nut spice mixture and toss to coat evenly. When oil in skillet is hot but not smoking put the scallops in the pan in a single layer and sauté for 1 1/2 minutes on each side. Do not overcook or scallops will be tough. Cook the scallops in batches as necessary. Serve immediately with lemon wedge.

Restaurant Review: Hampton Coffee Company
K. Laffey
By Kelly Laffey I’ve been to the Hampton Coffee Company’s Water Mill location on numerous occasions – it’s one of those places where you can still smell the fresh baked goods and roasting coffee every morning. I often park in my dad’s office space across the street and play Frogger trying to cross Montauk Highway, but the trip is always well worth it. Which is why, when I arrived at the café on schedule last week and was told that a plate of the signature Tequila Shrimp Nachos had been pre-ordered for me, I couldn’t help but wonder if owner Jason Belkin instinctively knew that it was my favorite item on the menu. Turns out that Jason simply wanted Dan’s readers to get a taste of what is one of the café’s most popular dishes. Though, I am proud to say that he did recognize me when he came to the table to graciously answer any questions I had. I’m definitely proud to be a real regular. Now, those nachos... Simply put, they’re the most delicious nachos I’ve ever had, bar none. I don’t think that ‘fresh’ is a word often used to describe nachos, but these chips are homemade and crispy, with melted Pepper Jack cheese, diced tomatoes, jalapenos and shrimp sautéed in Tequila. Not too hot, they’re also the perfect texture and don’t fall victim to the sogginess that too often plagues lesser chips. If you can make it past the appetizer – which you need to do, despite the generous portion size – Hampton Coffee Company offers a selection of light and hearty lunch options. Inspired by Mexican flavors, items on the menu include fajitas and

In addition, the café offers a wide variety of fresh sandwiches and salads, including a sandwich of the day, soup, and a popular ‘choose two’ special (half sandwich, small salad or small soup special.) Jason was quick to point out that for the same price as a sandwich would cost at any local deli – about $8 – Hampton Coffee’s varieties include a fresh side salad and a beautiful sit down location. When the weather gets warmer, I always opt to eat on the backyard patio, which overlooks the Green Thumb farmland and is a world away from the highway.

the only computer in the roasting room is the label printer. One of the more unique things about the Hampton Coffee Company is its Mobile Espresso Unit, which is a full service coffee purveyor. Jason shared an entertaining anecdote that when much of the East End lost power in the wake of Hurricane Irene, he parked the Mobile Espresso Unit outside of the Water Mill location and, within hours it was certified by the Health Department and serving up cups of joe to people who needed their caffeine fix despite – or perhaps because of – the weather. The hectic day emphasized Hampton Coffee Company’s commitment to providing high-quality coffee in a fun, relaxed atmosphere. Hampton Coffee Company also offers a rotating assortment – and free samples – of monthly flavored coffees. Get your sweet fix through February with the decadent Chocolate Cherry Kiss. Come March 3, Hampton Coffee Company will be celebrating St. Patrick’s Day with an Irish Cream flavored coffee. And, I’ll definitely be back to try March’s specialty drink – a green chocolate-mint Leprechaun Latte. In addition, Hampton Coffee serves tea from the esteemed ‘The Republic of Tea,’ and Jason explained that a growing number of customers are ordering flavored teas as an alternative to dessert. I was not as strong-willed against the army of delicioussounding treats. I had to sample – make that devour – the Homemade Mexican Flan. Made with milk, eggs, vanilla and caramel, it’s a must-try.

& ART COMMENTARY by Marion W. Weiss
Andrea Cote: “Body Of Evidence” At Dowling College
Andrea Cote is one of those special artists who is a filmmaker, sculptor, choreographer, photographer and performance artist: a creative individual with skill and provocative ideas. As far as we know, she never stops working on new projects at home or elsewhere. To categorize Cote would be nonsense, but if we must, we’d say she was a conceptual artist in a locale (the East End) where such people are few and far between. But that doesn’t stop Cote. We remember first seeing her in a performance piece at Riverhead’s Art Sites: coming down a hill, wrapped in a large piece of cloth that she molded in different configurations to both entrap and free her head with her long hair (shown at the Pollock Krasner House’s film series, Artists Make Movies) were equally engaging. Most of Cote’s body of work concerns her actual body (and thus the present exhibit’s title, “Body of Evidence.”) While such an expression is certainly a pun, her endeavors are not smug or overly clever as some puns are. Because this emphasis on the body is serious we began to wonder what Cote’s real purpose was. The answer is probably obvious: to explore the artist’s own identity. What is equally fascinating are the paths this exploration takes and the varied aspects of Cote’s self-image. First, we start with striking works
HONORING THE ARTIST by Marion W. Weiss
Honoring The Artist: Joanne Rosko
This week’s cover, “The Thaw,” seems particularly appropriate for its artist, Joanne Rosko. The landscape is real, to be sure, but there is also a bit of unreality in the image. Such a combination fits the aura of the Hamptons as well as Rosko’s style. Her plein air views of the East End, like its boats, marshes and trucks, allow us to imagine what lies beyond the picture plane. We can’t help but create our own picture of the landscape with all its beauty. Q: Tell us about your cover image, “The Thaw.” Although there’s no snow, which we associate with thawing, you are capturing the transition between winter and spring in a subtle way. Where is the real scene? A: It’s on a back road near Halsey’s Farm Stand, toward Bridgehampton. As I do with a lot of my plein air work, I started the painting there and then finished it in my studio.

on paper of her prone body intertwined with her long, luxurious hair. While the patterns evoked by the hair are arresting examples of Abstract Expressionism, we look beyond this observation to find the metaphor. Consider that hair can have contradictory meanings: no doubt, it gave Samson power and then no power at all when Delilah cut it off. Hair can also be seductive in some cultures and rejected in others where women must cover their heads. It’s hard to say which interpretation, if any, Cote accepts about her own identity. It may be that hair for her is merely a malleable material that can be made into different shapes. No matter. Cote respects the texture that hair brings to her art. Q: How has the economic situation affected you, if at all? A: I’ve really been busy the last two years. I’m still selling and getting good feedback. That feedback keeps me going. Q: What does “busy” mean in the near future? A: I will be preparing for shows at Silas Marder in May and the Plein Air Peconic will be having an exhibit at Bridge Gardens in March. Then there’s a show at The Whaling Museum in Sag Harbor May through July. Q: I know you love gardening and photography. But what about painting itself? What does it really mean to you? A: It keeps me in the present. You cannot think about anything else when you’re painting. It brings me to a place that is calm and joyous. It’s been that way my whole life. Q: What else did art bring to you? A: In high school, I would go after class to a museum and stare at a Jackson Pollock painting, for example. I went from immaturity to having an understanding. Q: Where are your favorite places to paint? A: Louse Point and a beach in Southampton. I always try to find a new place. I even climb on top of my car to look at views. Q: Any places not in the Hamptons? A: The Adirondacks. I go there every year. I will be going to Red Rock Canyon in the beginning of April for the largest plein air conference ever held. Q: Where would you go to paint that you’ve never been?
Her digital prints use another medium to explore identity, as a woman progresses into insanity through her facial expressions. Small paper dolls made from old photographs suggest a subtle, yet similar, digression into a more primitive state. A particularly evocative work is Cote’s sculptural paintings, where she has produced casts of body parts to create fragmentation. Ears are a focus, reminding this critic of the severed ear in the film, Blue Velvet. Other works called “Body Print Mandalas” are rubber casts of Cote’s body inked and pressed to mylar. We are curious to determine which part predominates. Thus, motifs begin to emerge from these pieces, perhaps giving us an idea of Cote’s sense of self: contradictions about power and strength; segmentation of the body; a primitive view of the human being. “Body of Evidence” will be on view at The Anthony Giordano Gallery at Oakdale’s Dowling College until March 18, 2012. Call 631-244-3016 for information. A: I’d like to go to France. I don’t know if this is crazy. I’d like to take my time there and not just go for a few weeks. I’d also like to go somewhere out west, like Colorado. Q: When you travel, what medium do you use? A: Watercolor; I do free-form. Q: Did your family have anything to do with your love of art? Were they artists? A: I came from a family of musicians. My grandmother was in the Boston Philharmonic. My brother’s first degree was in music. I played the flute. Q: How did music influence your art? A: I listen to different kinds of music when I paint. Classical, opera, jazz, rock. Music thrusts you into yourself. After awhile, you don’t even hear the music. Q: If you weren’t a painter, what would you have been? A: A chef. I love to cook. I grow my own food in my garden and herbs, like basil, parsley, hot peppers. I also do an old-fashioned thing, like canning. Q: I keep thinking about your style. Is it moving toward abstraction? A: After the earthquake in Japan, I did a painting for a fundraiser. It was total abstraction. I just had to paint it. Rosko’s work may be seen on her website: web.mac. com/joannerosko Contact Bridge Gardens for information about Rosko’s upcoming show: 631-283-3195.

Dan’s Papers February 24, 2012 danshamptons.com Page 39
LETTERS Goodbye Bridgehampton Dear Dan, Your article brought tears to my eyes. You can write like nobody else my friend. How fortunate that we have Bridgehampton in our hearts. Good Luck on the move....xxxx Marina Marina Van, Executive Director East Hampton Chamber of Commerce It was a 40-year run at 2221 Montauk Highway. Now in memory. - DR WORSE Dear Dan, I’ve just returned from a visit with my sister in Michigan. I had been putting it off and making excuses for not going for some time. After all the depressing news about the dismal economic condition and unemployment in the state I selfishly did not want to witness it fist hand. Finally I ran out of excuses and acquiesced. I’m glad I did. Unfortunately I was not pleasantly surprised as I naively hoped I would be. Indeed there were all the makings to assure abject misery, yet it was not there or at least to the extent equal to the conditions. After a few days and much conversation, it finally became clear, that the reason for this, if not completely upbeat, certainly not morbid, was hope. Seeing not only the rebirth of their auto industry but General Motors once again regain the position of largest source of motor vehicles in the world gave them hope that conditions can be made to change. Repeatedly I heard accolades for President Obama’s intervention and this despite all the shortsighted that would have had their major industry fall. He is their hero. It was a long overdue but very uplifting visit. The loans made to Chrysler and General motors not only paid off but also is being paid back. It’s a great thing to find hope when everything seems to contradict it. Sincerely, Shana Rhodes East Hampton 49% oppose anything a President does. It’s America. - DR NOT TOO SHARK Dear Dan, I have a crazy inquiry. Do you know why this morning sharks would be washing up on Southampton beach? I recently moved to Southampton and on my morning run I happened to see six 2-3 foot sharks that were washed up along the beach. I actually conquered my fear of sharks by trying to save one that was not dead yet by picking it up and throwing it back in the water. Not sure if this is a normal occurrence, if it is because the storm last night or if a fishing boat threw them back in the ocean after catching them. It just seemed very coincidental that it was only sharks and so many of the section I just walked on. Any light you can bring, I will be much interested in hearing. Thanks, Jaime Danza Southampton No clue. But fish swim in schools.–DR SIGNS OF THE TIMES Dear Dan, Swaying in the wind, their presence hides an escalating problem that virtually affects us all. Once the symbol of upward mobility and a promising future, real estate signs on homeowners’ front lawns in many cases signify another casualty inflicted
by the high cost of living on Long Island. Change is inevitable, we are told. That often overused phrase has more meaning now than ever before. For many, the suburban lifestyle that we have grown accustomed to is slipping away, not by choice but rather for economic reasons. Surveys taken by Nassau and Suffolk residents asking if they planned to continue living here showed that the desire to exit is increasing dramatically. It should come as no surprise that many residents plan to leave the island. The cost of buying a home or renting one on Long Island has become exceedingly high and beyond the reach of many who would continue to live here, if they simply could afford to. For many, living here is no longer feasible. The cost of owning and maintaining a home has become such a financial burden that the only realistic alternative is to relocate off the island. Affordable housing has become a serious issue that continues to threaten the demographic profile of both Nassau and Suffolk counties. For many, the dream of owning a home on Long Island and raising a family here has become just that: a dream. It is estimated that fifty percent of residents in the 18 to 24-year old demographic profile are either moving or are planning to leave the island, primarily for economic reasons. Although this statistic is
Send your letters to askdan@danspapers.com (e-mails only, please) alarming, the fact remains that little is being done to retain this segment of our population. As a result, the demographic profile of our island will shift in favor of older, established residents, who can better handle the financial drain of living here. This precarious situation is quite problematic as the status quo of our island is undermined as this transition progresses. The void left behind by our newly evolving social landscape will not easily be filled. This is in stark contrast to an island that was a prime destination for countless young adults who wished to stay here and maintained a quality lifestyle. As more and more residents are forced to vacate their homes, a sense of despair takes hold. Like characters from John Steinbeck’s ‘ Grapes of Wrath’, families are exiting Long Island in search of a better and most importantly, affordable lives. I can only hope that this grim picture changes and that this exodus is slowed. Jason E. Hill Ridge, New York
Police Blotter Once Bitten A Southampton police officer needed medical attention after he was bitten in the hand during an arrest. The police officer was in the process of arresting two men for smoking marijuana that was laced with embalming fluid. Shelter Island Police responded to an argument that broke out at the annual Shelter Island Bacon Festival that took place last week. Old Man McGumbus, 108 years old and former World War II bomb engineer, got into a shouting match with Sue Mcbisquik, the general manager of the Island Health, Vitamins and Smoothie Shop. Mcbisquik confronted McGumbus after filing a complaint with the town for not getting the proper permits for the bacon festival and demanded that he be arrested. Things got ugly when McGumbus threatened to sue Mcbisquik for defamation and threw a bacon sandwich at her head. “THAT’S ASSAULT! THAT’S ASSAULT!” Mcbisquik screamed and called police. No arrests were made. Bonnie and Clyde A husband and wife cleaning team was a arrested last week in Hampton Bays after they stole items from a home that included a Nintendo Wii video game system totalling approximately $1,000. The pair also forged and cashed checks that they took from a checkbook inside of the
home. Interesting An 18-year old Southampton man was arrested after he fired a rifle into his neighbor’s bedroom while attempting to kill rats. The gun that was fired was a .22 caliber. The neighbor called police when he heard the shots. The teen was charged with reckless endangerment in the second degree. Theft A woman in East Hampton reported that somebody stole her heart last week. Smart A member of the Maidstone Gun Club in East Hampton called police to let them know that a hole had been cut in the chain-link fence that surrounds the gun club. Real smart thing to do there, chain-link fence guy, nothing like pissing off the people with all of the shotguns in town. Correction In last week’s Police Blotter we incorrectly stated that man jumped into the ocean in an attempt to save a dog that was drowning but it ended up being a stuffed teddy bear. The teddy bear was in fact a sex doll, and the man was trying to save…a sex doll. We regret the error. –David Lion Rattiner
