The Crash How a Freighter Sailed Full Speed Ahead into Montauk By Dan Rattiner We never did have a winter. We had only one day with snow. The rest was sit outdoors weather, and, according to the farmer Dick Hendrickson, who keeps the weather statistics out here, the winter of 2011-12 was the third warmest in the history of Long Island. Under the circumstances, I thought it might be a good idea to tell you a tale of a shipwreck out here that took place long ago during a blizzard so cold it turned the surf to ice and created winds of 40 knots. It might be considered harsh today, 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 June 30.
Now On Tour
Local men came down to look for survivors. They found no one. but back then the farmers referred to this as a “proper winter.” On February 20, 1858, a member of the Stratton family, which back then ran the Third House Inn out toward Montauk Point, decided to go on horseback out to the beach at Montauk. There had been two days of a gale, a bitter snowstorm with howling winds, sideways falling snow and below zero temperatures. Now it had let up for a while. The history books do not say why Stratton went out that day, but on frequent occasion locals often walked the beaches looking for things that might wash up. It was finders keepers, just as it is today. And this was right at the tail end of a storm.
What Stratton came upon, however, was one of the most horrifying things he had ever seen. It was the shattered remains of a 203-foot long three-masted medium schooner that had come into the shore straight on at what must have been a very high speed to judge by how far up between the boulders it had got. Its sails, ripped to shreds, were still up. Even more grisly, Stratton saw among barrels of cargo, bodies strewn about on the beach, stiff and dead. Sea spray from a wild surf had hardened into ice on them in shredded clumps. Some of the dead were lying jumbled together. Others were lying locked in embrace. Still others were in blocks of ice. Stratton rode off to the east the five miles out to the Montauk Lighthouse where, from way up high, the keeper there could signal up the island with their new telegraph system to tell what had happened. Local men soon came down to look for survivors. It was still windy and freezing, but (continued on page 22)

Surfing HQ How Surf Lodge Ignored the Town and 687 Violations By Dan Rattiner The wave of young Hamptonites was beckoned to Montauk by the glories of the Surf Lodge four years ago. It was a jarring summer. Here were all the fishermen’s bars and restaurants in Montauk and then this one chic nightspot duded out to look like an oceanfront surfing headquarters (which was outrageous since it was on the calm waters of Fort Pond). It was the “it” place to be that summer. The crowds came, the women in their chic dresses and high heels and the guys in little black suits and a three-day beard, and what do you know, it was a huge success. The next summer and the next, more and more similar such places opened in Montauk.
This story, however, is not about all those other places. Each and every one of them was set up on a former fishing resort establishments on considerable acreage and therefore with plenty of room to cater to the new hip crowd. They too were crowded all night with revelers, but they had lots of room to satisfy town laws. Surf Lodge might have tried too—some say they didn’t even do that—but on such a small property it was really just about impossible. It had parking for a handful of patrons’ cars (where they needed 200.) It had a dinner capacity of 68 (where on some nights, it was said there were 300 served). And it sat facing the calm waters of the pond on a very narrow but busy road where cars whizzed by at 45
miles an hour. When hundreds of people crowded into the Surf Lodge late every evening on the weekends laughing and drinking and swaying to the loud music, they frequently spilled out onto the street creating a very dangerous situation indeed. The town government tried mightily to get along with the owners of Surf Lodge (whoever they may be, more about that later), but the violations kept coming—no certificate of occupancy, severe overcrowding, no site plan approval, illegal clearing of wetlands—and eventually, during the summer of 2011, these (continued on page 24)
COMMERCIAL FISHING BOAT MAYDAY OFF MONTAUK By Robert Sforza The lucky Shamrock, a Boston-based commercial fishing vessel, narrowly avoided sinking in high seas off the coast of Montauk last weekend. An epic battle against the sea ensued, involving helicopters, the Coast Guard, aircraft and other fishing boats, and the boat was finally able to make it, half filled with water, to the jetties of Montauk Harbor at 1 a.m. where, according to the Coast Guard, it was found to be too low in the water to get through the jetties because of the shallows there. As a result, the crew of the Shamrock continued baling all the rest of that Sunday night just offshore Montauk and, in the morning, after much assistance, was able to return to port in New Bedford, Mass. The four members of the ship’s crew all survived uninjured. The Shamrock was fishing 65 miles off Montauk when, as a result of a deck plank in
the forward compartment coming loose and getting carried away by the sea, the water began coming down into the hold. There was only one baling pump on board, but it failed to get ahead of the water. At 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, the ship issued its distress calls. However, the Shamrock, at 65 miles offshore, was so distant offshore that the Coast Guard in Montauk did not initially receive a call. It was not until the Coast Guard overheard the ship’s mayday siren over various ships’ radios. The Ocean Pride, a fishing vessel from Eliot, Maine, was asked to assist the besieged Shamrock, until further assistance could arrive. “They were pretty far out there fishing, we’re very glad they made it back,” remarked Erik Swanson, a spokesman for the Coast Guard. The Coast Guard immediately deployed two aircraft, a Falcon Jet and a Jayhawk in addition
to two cutters, Ridley and Tiger Shark, to aid with the rescue. The Falcon dropped two additional baling pumps to the Shamrock, but it took a long time in 30 mph winds, and the 12-foot waves just kept refilling the vessel with water. The Shamrock was then given a third pump before it began its odyssey to Montauk. Escorted by the Tiger Shark cutter, the fishing boat slowly made its way to Montauk, where it arrived finally at 1 a.m. As the Shamrock drew closer to Long Island, rescue boat crews from Coast Guard Station in Montauk relieved the escort. However, the odyssey did not stop there. When the Shamrock arrived at Montauk, “the ship was so low as water was reentering the hull, we couldn’t get her into the actual harbor,” stated Coastguardsman Swanson. (continued on page 28)

the sun was now shining. They found no one. The dead bodies were carried to horsedrawn wagons and taken to the coroner’s office in East Hampton. An article about this terrible wreck appeared in the local newspapers and the New York daily newspapers. Some people from New York came out by stage to try to identify some of their loved ones. Some succeeded, some did not. The following day, the keeper of the Napeague Lifesaving Station came upon a seaman’s chest on the beach that contained Captain Ephraim Harding’s logbook and he took it into East Hampton. Also that day, an official from the Port of New York with the title Wreckmaster arrived to take charge of all the barrels of cargo, which the log said was guano. The ill-fated crew had loaded these
barrels onto their ship while at a dock at one of the Chincha Islands off the coast of Peru. It was a material used as fertilizer on farms. Few of the barrels were still intact. The ship’s log told the story of what happened to this ship, although some questions remained. It was out of New Bedford, Mass., had loaded its cargo on Chincha, had rounded Cape Horn at the southern end of South America, had sailed up and made landfall at Norfolk, Va., and then had sailed on to deliver its cargo to New York City into this full blown gale. Captain Harding decided because of the storm to round Montauk Point and get into the more sheltered waters of Long Island Sound to get to New York City. But it seemed he had misunderstood the Montauk Light, turned early and instead

of rounding Montauk, crashed into the rocks at Ditch Plains under full sail. The Captain’s body was found. His son, who was also aboard the John Milton as a deck hand, was never found. The last entry in the log puts the ship at latitude 36 degrees 56 minutes. There was no longitude entry because accurate ways of determining longitude were not yet available. Separately and together the townspeople of East Hampton suffered a great sorrow as a result of this wreck. It was one of the biggest shipwrecks on Long Island ever. The dead bodies in their shrouds were brought out and laid side by side on the town green so the minister there could perform a funeral service. All together there were 22 dead seamen and one dead boy, who was not the Captain’s son. The captain’s log said there were 32 men on board. Of the remaining nine men, five were found later after the ceremony, as they washed up on beaches as far west as Mecox. Four others were never found and were assumed just disappeared into the sea. After the funeral, all the bodies were carried to the South End Burying Ground by Town Pond and after further ceremony buried in a common grave beneath a great boulder that bears an elaborate description of their end. Captain Harding’s body was returned home to Martha’s Vineyard and is buried in the Village Cemetery in Vineyard Haven on that island. Two weeks after the wreck, a beachcomber named Alex Gould came upon a seaman’s pea jacket with gold coins in the pocket worth more than $400, a considerable sum. When it was found that this was the Captain’s pea jacket, Gould turned the coins over to the coroner who had it sent to Ephraim Harding’s widow, a small consolation for her grief. Officials, looking through records of nautical transactions on that fateful day, found that the day before the shipwreck, the Life Saving Service—the predecessor organization of the Coast Guard—had activated a light in a new lighthouse on Long Island and its activation may have confused Captain Harding. The new lighthouse was called the Shinnecock Bay Light, and it was at the foot of Ponquogue Avenue in Hampton Bays. This lighthouse does not exist today. The Coast Guard declared it surplus in 1948 and dynamited it down at that time. However, the day before the shipwreck, without previous notice to mariners, the powerful Fresnel lens in the light’s tower got turned on. It would now join the Montauk Lighthouse to its east and the Fire Island Lighthouse to its west, to make a series of three powerful beacons along a 60-mile stretch of the south coast of Long Island. It is believed that Captain Harding, finding the Fire Island Light through the fog, turned east and began looking for the Montauk Light to make his turn north and up into Long Island Sound. It’s theorized that when he got a glimpse of the new Shinnecock Bay Light, he mistook it for Montauk, and joyful at having made it through the gale almost to safety ordered the crew to turn the ship northward and put under full sail where, instead of running into the open water off Montauk, it crashed on the rocks of Ditch Plains killing everybody on board. The following spring of 1859, the chapel next to the great Presbyterian Church in East Hampton was completed. When it was, (continued on page 24)

would not recuse herself from the case, she was interrupted when, according to The East Hampton Star, the defendants’ then-attorney Colin Patrick Astarita took a cellphone call. Justice Cahill has the right to have a bench warrant issued to force people to come to court. If they do not on a certain day at a certain time, the police pick them up, handcuff them and bring them in. Time in jail is possible when this happens. That has not happened here yet, but at another hearing where the owners didn’t show up, the Justice asked their lawyer to give her all their names…and he refused to do so. And here’s the latest news. Rumors are circulating that the owners have now put the Surf Lodge up for sale. They’ve got other fish

to fry, apparently, other successful nightclubs in New York they have to mind, and they now say they want to get on with their lives and let somebody else deal with the problem. I think at this point, the town ought to buy the Surf Lodge and make it into a disco museum, a shrine to the handsome young men and women who now flock to Montauk in their fancy cars and fine clothes to paper that town with big bucks. It would not be hard for the town to do this. Subtract all the money they are allegedly owed for the ordinance violations from the sale price wanted for the place, and it would probably cost not much at all. Here’s how I envision the Surf Lodge Disco Museum. You know all the velvet ropes that nightspots have outside? They could now have them in the hallways inside separating the museum goers from the various rooms which, of course, would be decked out with the various trappings of this historic old nightspot. There would be empty champagne bottles, surf boards, towels, boom box amplifiers, keys to private rooms, the whole nine yards. The Surf Lodge, celebrated as the first Montauk nightspot out here, could be as important to Montauk as is the Montauk Lighthouse. The Lighthouse was authorized by George Washington and is the first lighthouse built in the State of New York. Here you would have the first Montauk nightclub. There could be photographs of the rich and famous on the walls and the pictures of the owners, their faces with a big black patch on them so the Justice wouldn’t know who they were, also on the walls. Once a summer, there could be a Surf Lodge Nightspot Blowout Day. It would begin at 3 p.m. and go to 3 a.m. Everybody would come. They’d park up and down that busy narrow road as in past summers. All the local ordinances would be broken—they’d serve chowder at an illegal stand, they’d bring bags of sand in to replenish the “beach,” they’d have tons of stuff you could eat or sniff, they’d have bouncers deciding who gets in and who not, and they could even have some star performers. Maybe 50 Cent or some other national group. Even I would go to one night of that.

violations piled up to a grand total of 687. The fines have not been assessed yet. Surf Lodge has plead Not Guilty. The matter has wound up in town court before Justice Catherine A. Cahill who repeatedly experienced either nobody showing up or just the lawyer representing the owners showing up. The justice needed the owners to show up. They were not supposed to refuse her. But they had one excuse after another. Things escalated further. This past fall and early winter, some locals seemed determined to have the Surf Lodge shut down for this upcoming summer. Later in the proceedings, the Surf Lodge asked that Justice Cahill recuse herself from the proceedings and she refused to do so. As Justice Cahill announced that she

Celebrity S.O.S. Hamptons 5-Diamond Celebrity Response At Your Service By Mr. Sneiv Have you seen the television show “Shark Tank?” It features a panel of five wealthy investors called “Sharks” who consider offers from entrepreneurs seeking investors for their business or product. If the Sharks like the idea, they will make an offer on the spot to be an investor in the product. Well, I have had a thousand of these ideas in my lifetime. I think most people do but don’t take the initiative to advance the idea. Long before sunglasses for dogs, known as Doggles, were invented, I am pretty sure I had a similar idea. And way before that Housewife of New York launched that Skinnygirl Liquor line, I had the idea of a similar concept except
it was called “No honey you don’t look fat in that dress cocktail.” My inaction has probably cost me millions. So now I have decided to do something about it. I am going to get off my ass and actually become an entrepreneur. I might need some rich Shark-types from Dan’s Papers to front me a little seed money so here’s my business plan: Introducing HAMPTONS FIVE-DIAMOND CELEBRITY RESPONSE COMPANY! We all know that the Hamptons are a playground for the rich and famous. Consequently, they want to be treated as such. Under the plan, for an annual payment of $100,000, if a celebrity has an accident or an emergency, while in the designated area, they will be entitled to
our rapid response services. What are those services you ask? It’s a full-blown White Glove Celebrity Emergency Response Team for when those occasions arise that might need to be handled delicately. Let me elaborate; let’s say Lindsay Lohan was visiting and wrecked her car into a particular town windmill. A Rolls Royce will immediately be dispatched to the site along with a private physician and a public relations advisor. The physician would immediately escort her into the Rolls before the paparazzi can arrive and take embarrassing pictures. If she needed some medical assistance, there (continued on next page)
SAVE THE PLANET BUT IS IT PAPER OR PLASTIC? By Dan Rattiner Last year, the Village of Southampton passed a law making it against the law to use throwaway plastic bags in stores. The merchants grumbled about it, but went along with it. It does mean less plastic. But we all know what happens to paper bags when it starts to rain while you’re heading out to the car. A much larger entity than Southampton Village is Southampton Town, which essentially surrounds Southampton Village. (Village population 3,000. Town population 56,000.) The town consists of all the unincorporated areas of the community, which include Bridgehampton, Water Mill, Noyac, Hampton Bays and Quiogue. Anyway, the Town Board was feeling a bit guilty that they didn’t put in a plastic bag ban
too. Last year, a councilman proposed it, but the proposal just sat there, never getting voted upon. It got tabled again last week. I think the Town continues to feel bad about this, given the fact that plastic is forever. And so some members of the Town Board got together and formed a group to do something about it on their own. If you are a summer person wondering what it is that we locals did all winter, you’re about to find out. “Priority Number One is reducing plastic bag use and increasing their recycling rates,” Councilwoman Christine Preston Scalera said in the press release announcing the new effort. “Our goal is to increase the number of recycled bags by 15% in one year.” On Earth Day weekend, April 21-22, things heat up as some members of this new
group Scalera and others created called the Southampton Town Plastic Bag Education Task Force will station themselves inside of King Kullen in Bridgehampton from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. to have shoppers sign pledges saying they will reuse, reduce or recycle their use of plastic bags and then read some leaflets with the headline “A Greener Southampton: the Solution is in the Bag,” printed on, of course, recycled paper. Then they will go to the Stop & Shop in Hampton Bays and do the same thing. All of this is not only with the permission of the owners of these supermarkets, but also with their cooperation. The supermarkets are making pledges of their own. They will give a (continued on next page)

would be no necessity to go to the hospital. She would be whisked away to our Celebrity Safe House until the whole incident blew over. All the while, our public relations person would remain on-site to handle questions, make denials and even issue checks for damages. We even have what we call a “Plant Person.” Their function is to jump behind the wheel of the celebrity car and pretend they were driving, thus taking the fall for the celebrity. And it’s not just car accidents we will be responding to. A wardrobe malfunction, no problem, as we keep a vast selection of designer dresses, suits and tuxedos in all sizes in the trunk of the car. We will be prepared for almost any celebrity emergency including Public Intoxication, nervous breakdowns, stalkers, and bad hair
days…etc. Think how many celebrities would have saved themselves a lot of public embarrassment and humiliation if they had had this type of service at their disposal. How will the celebrities let us know they need help? Subscribers will be fitted with a 20-carat men’s or women’s diamond watch complete with a hidden signaling device and GPS tracking. Push the button and we will be there in a matter of minutes. We will have at least four separate response teams stationed around the area. Rolling out my idea will not be cheap. I have located an estate in Montauk that is a steal at $20 million. Besides serving as a Celebrity Safe House it will be our Central Command Center. Of course I will need to live there rent-free,

so I can oversee the day-to-day operations. I think we can get a good deal on Rolls Royces, since we will be buying in bulk. We can get the watches made in China because everything can be made cheaper over there. Finding staff will be easy because unemployment is still high. The rest of the details I will work out once we have funding. So that’s the basics of the plan. I figure we can get it going for as little as $40 dollars.

The weekend’s activities will also promote another project involving the Town Board, which kicks off that day as the “Plastic Bag Challenge.” All local schools in the area vie with one another to see which one can have its kids bring in the most plastic bags to a central point. The contest will extend through to the end of April, and the winning school will get the coveted first prize award, an actual park bench made up from plastic bags that have been powerfully mushed together. Kids from each of the schools will also make big posters to be put up around town to advertise the Plastic Bag Challenge. Sometimes good things can happen when you’re feeling bad.

Making Big Bucks with a Merry-Go-Round at company picnics on the site. Grumman offered up the merrygo-round for $1 to any nearby municipality who would agree to use it. And they found a taker on the North Fork in the Village of Greenport. The mayor at the time, David Kapell, rebuilt the tumbledown waterfront as an urban renewal project, created a beautiful park and offered up merry-go-round rides to all takers on what was then named Mitchell Park after the historic old seafood restaurant and marina that once graced the property. It’s been a great success, to the tune of $80,000 in profits a year, according to Village Administrator Dave K. Laffey
By Dan Rattiner As you probably know, there is a big merrygo-round in the waterfront park in downtown Greenport. It’s the centerpiece of that town, in the same way that the Founders Monument is the centerpiece of Bridgehampton and Town Pond and Hook Mill define the center of East Hampton. The merry-go-round was originally built for the employees of the Grumman Corporation, which had a test facility in Calverton for many years. Grumman eventually closed up shop, merged with Northrup Aircraft Incorporated and moved to Virginia. Among the things not taken was the merry-go-round, which made the children of the Grumman workers very happy
YOU’VE GOT THE DREAM. WE’VE GOT THE MONEY.
Abatelli. Rides on the merry-goround, which is in a glass building by the water, can be had for $2. Last week, at a Village Meeting, Abatelli proposed that the cost of a ride on it be increased from $2 to $2.25. The idea was batted around for awhile, but then the Mayor, David Nyce, said leave it
alone. “I don’t think we should be raising rates,” he said, according to The Suffolk Times And that was the end of it. The matter didn’t even come up for a vote. It seemed to me that the merry-go-round committee, and there is such a committee, ought to consider having their cake and eating it too. Why not increase the fare, but offer more times that it goes round and round? It’s a win-win for everybody. If it goes around 50 times for $2, increase it to 55. That 10% increase would justify the extra quarter. The wonderful time would last a bit longer. And the moms, dads and kids would come off only slightly more dizzy than they do now. And I would not accept the argument that if they speeded the thing up a bit, they could get in 55 times around in the same time it takes 50. No fair, that idea. Finally, you’d have to get the word out. I recommend advertising in Dan’s Papers. Or try us online at danshamptons.com. You could do a video of people on the merry-go-round.

NAMED “AMERICA’S BEST-MANAGED BANK” BY FORBES

(continued from page 21)
While the rest of the South Fork slept, the crew worked tirelessly pumping out their boat to make the journey back to Massachusetts. By 4 a.m. on Sunday the crew raised anchor and, with further escorts, began its seven-hour transit to New Bedford, Mass., where it finally arrived at 1 p.m. The ship features a three-chambered bulkhead, which keeps the boat from sinking when taking on water, enabled the ship to survive this fight. “This was a complex, well-coordinated search and rescue response between all Coast Guard units,” said Petty Officer 1st Class Anthony Kozac, a watch stander at Coast Guard Sector Long Island Sound. “The crew worked very hard to save their vessel.” Other recent Coast Guard events off Long Island: In March two men were rescued by the Coast Guard in the Shinnecock Inlet, after the dock they were working on broke, leading them out into rough waters. The men had been working on a dock at Oakland’s Marina. Winds were roaring that day as strong as 35 mph. Last November a 50-year-old mariner issued a distress call after his boat was apparently sinking. The vessel’s electrical system was not functioning correctly. The mariner set sail out of Greenport in search of another destination on Long Island. The Coast Guard described weather conditions at that time as extremely poor visibility, with high winds, and waves as high as six feet. The sailor was saved and given the necessary medical treatment.

M Autofocus: Getting The Best Photos From Your Smart Phone
This June will mark the five-year anniversary of the first iPhone, five. Hard to believe, right? In about the same time that it took Justin Bieber to rise from YouTube obscurity to become a hair-do and pop icon, this device has sprung from the imagination of Steve Jobs to completely blow up the technology ecosystem. Communications, music, email and other timewasting pursuits will never be the same. The iPhone’s greatest impact just might lie in the world of photography. Polaroid cameras are long gone, just another olden-time story we tell to our grandkids. Flip video cameras became an overnight sensation—and disappeared even more quickly when Cisco realized the vast potential for Smart Phone video cameras. Smart Phones are here to stay, and they are devouring every device that dares to get in their way. Can you take a good photo with a Smart Phone? Yes—thanks to killer phone Apps that have become as popular as iPhones themselves. I’m talking about Hipstamatic and Instagram. If you own an iPhone, you’ve probably already downloaded one or both of these programs. If you own an Android phone, then you should rejoice— word in cyberspace is that these apps will soon be available for you as well. Finally. People often ask which of these apps is “better� for taking photos. There’s really no correct answer. I use them both, for very different reasons. Here’s a quick comparison. Hipstamatic Hipstamatic has been around since 2009. It’s a straight photography app that costs $1.99 for the basic kit. You receive a series of “lenses,� “films,� and “flash� accessories with cute names and vivid descriptions. These accessories are actually digital filters and effects that alter the appearance of photos taken inside the program. You can purchase many additional photography packs, all designed to evoke different moods and eras from the annals of photographic history. The app also has functions to let you print your photos or post them onto social media sites. Hipstamatic is old school. Its entire purpose is to get you to slow down, think about the photo you’re about to shoot, and apply appropriate effects before you take the shot. This logic is counter-intuitive in the digital camera age where it’s all about speed. On more than one occasion, I’ve missed a great shot because it took a while to set up the right combination of film, lens and flash. Hipstamatic is also pricey. Those 99-cent add-ons can add up quickly, and having so many different choices can sometimes give you too many options to think about. But it’s well worth it. Hipstamatic photos can be incredible, transforming typically boring iPhone shots into highly artistic portraits; people will not believe you have the talent and eye to take such awesome photos.
April 6, 2012 Page 29
Bottom line: This is not the best app if you’re shooting on the go. Stick to those beautiful Hamptons sunrises, rather than action shots. Instagram Instagram is newer than Hipstamatic but just as popular—perhaps even more so. Want proof? How about 27 million registered users in about 18 months since launch? People love Instagram for three reasons. First, it’s free to download, and free is always good. Second, it’s simple to use—you shoot your photo first, then apply different looks and filters after the fact. By doing away with the complex setup, you miss fewer shots. Third, it’s got more social connectivity than other apps and is designed to facilitate sharing, posting and uploading photos. The main drawback to Instagram is its simplicity. The app only contains a few basic options for photo effects, which limits your
artistic freedom and curtails your power to create jaw-dropping visuals. In addition, Instagram requires you to log in with your chosen social network—which can be confusing and annoying, especially if you don’t want to post every photo to your Facebook buddies. Bottom Line: Instagram is a super-simple “lite� App to let you take better photos—but not great photos. Its real value lies in the social networking tools that come with it. The Verdict As I wrote earlier, Hipstamatic and Instagram have different strengths and purposes. Hipstamatic is about the photos, Instagram is about social networking. Hipstamatic is slower and artistic; Instagram is fast and practical. Hipstamatic is personal and introspective; Instagram is loud and public. Give both a try—you’ll quickly discover the best uses and features for you.

How Does Poop Get From Point A to B? By Kelly Laffey The public vs. private debate is almost as prolific and polarizing as the ongoing nature vs. nurture argument, and East Hampton Town is its latest casualty. East Hampton Town has owned the scavenger waste plant on Springs-Fireplace Road, which was built using federal, state and local funds to treat sewage from septic systems before releasing it into the ground, since its construction in the late 1980s. It is considering privatizing the facility, but recently rejected a bid from Lindenhurst’s East End Processing Corporation to purchase the plant. Hamptons Septic Services has run the plant as a waste transfer station—meaning that the sewage is
treated off-side—since January. A permanent solution regarding the future of the plant has yet to be rendered, and many members of the community have taken vastly different stances on the topic. “The first thing that needs to be done is an environmental assessment,” said East Hampton Town Councilwoman Sylvia Overby. In general, it seems that most agree that the aging facility needs to be upgraded, especially in the wake of what many hope is the forthcoming environmental review. Outside of that, the options for how to deal with the site vary greatly. I’d imagine that many of these ideas would be narrowed down depending upon the
10940
environmental findings, but here is a rundown of possibilities: An outside company either rents or buys the facility from the Town and oversees the plant’s operations; The site runs as a waste transfer station, whereby it serves as a storage facility until the material can be carted to an upisland plant; The station is shut down completely. The Town ran the plant until about 10 years ago, when it decided to hire an outside company, Severn Trent, to take over its operations. In the wake of numerous State Department of Environmental Conservation violations, Severn Trent’s contract was not renewed last fall, and the facility is now temporarily run as a waste transfer site. There will be a meeting at Town Hall on April 21 for people to voice their concerns regarding its future. According to Overby, the town was losing money during the end of Severen Trent Services’ tenure. And in the past, the plant was battling high dumping fees. Many feel that privatizing the plant could make it more competitive with facilities in the area—most notably in Riverhead and in West Babylon— that have cheaper rates. “I believe it was Mario Cuomo who said ‘It is not a government’s obligation to provide services, but to see that they are provided,’” said East Hampton Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson in a phone interview last month. “The private sector has been seen as a viable partner.” The argument for completely shutting down the plant drew criticism from people who feared that the upisland plants would reach capacity, and East Enders, particularly those in Amagansett and Montauk, would face issues getting rid of waste during an environmental emergency. Trucks are not able to store the waste for more than 24 hours. Another huge complaint with Severn Trent was the smell coming from the facility, particularly during the summer. “It will take your appetite away,” said Bill Hall of the One Stop Market, which sits on Springs-Fireplace Road across the street from the facility. “The smell has been a problem for about 20 years...If they (the Town) sell it, I don’t have much of a recourse. I don’t know where I would go to bring up issues with the plant,” said Hall. Wilkinson maintained that if the plant were to be privatized, choosing a company that prioritizes dealing with the smell is of extreme importance. Overby echoed that the smell is a major issue that needs to be addressed. However, many East Hamptonites feel that the Town should not become involved with an outside company to solve issues that are so close to home. While a reason for rejecting East End Processing Corporation’s bid was because of specific environmental concerns from the proposal, it’s unlikely that a company from upisland would be rejected based solely on its home base. Wilkinson maintained that a company wouldn’t risk their reputation and run a plant poorly simply because they were based outside of the town. “I don’t get the feeling that any company would come out here to do us harm,” said Overby—her primary concern with a private company is that they get the job done.

Neighbor By Nanci E. LaGarenne Local hero Jon Bon Jovi is many things to many people. He is a rock god. He is an actor. He is an activist. He is a husband and father of four. He is a man doing good in the world. He is a Jersey boy and he has never forgotten that. He loves the East End, is part-owner of the Blue Parrot in East Hampton and we get to see him on occasion signing autographs, being a nice guy. He was voted Sex Object of the Year by Kerrang Magazine in 1985. He has an Honorary doctorate in Humanities for his entertainment success and humanitarian work. He was awarded the Humanitarian of the Year by the Food Bank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties in New Jersey. He won the title Sexiest Rock Star three times from People Magazine. Sexiest Artist number 14 by VH1’s list of 100. You cannot go to any bar that has karaoke or a jukebox without hearing his mega hit single “Living On A Prayer” once a night. And now that house painter of your dreams, in Moonlight and Valentino, Bon Jovi’s first speaking role in 1995 (he played a corpse in Young Guns II before that), has opened a community restaurant for the homeless, called Soul Kitchen. How much more can we love this Jersey boy? The JBJ Soul Kitchen, a nonprofit community program, opened its doors on October 19, 2011, in Redbank New Jersey. There are “no prices on the menu—customers can volunteer or donate to pay for their meal,” according to Soul Kitchen’s website and a note from Bon Jovi himself. Soul Kitchen was born out of need and awareness and a desire to give back to the community. “At a time when one in five families in New Jersey are living at or below the poverty line and one in six children in New Jersey are food insecure, this is a restaurant whose time has come,” Bon Jovi says. Their manifesto states: “All are welcome. Happy are the hands that feed. When there is love, there is plenty. Good company whets the appetite. Friendship is our daily special. End the meal with a slice of happiness.” The point is, there is good food to eat and no one is refused. You can work for your supper by serving, clearing or washing the dishes. You can pay if you have the money and feed someone who doesn’t. You don’t need a reservation. The chef is no slouch either. Chef Terrence of Soul Kitchen’s “love of cooking was nurtured in his aunt’s and mother’s kitchens…anyone who gets to taste his cooking can taste the love and passion that Terrence puts in each dish,” says Bon Jovi in his Soul Kitchen notes. Chef Terrence arrived at Soul Kitchen via the Culinary Jobs Training Program through
Jon Bon Jovi
who perhaps remembers sweeping his cousin Tony’s recording studio floor when he was seventeen. The very studio, known as The Power Station, where Bon Jovi recorded “R2D2 We Wish You A Merry Christmas,” for the Star Wars Christmas album in 1980. The band we all know and love was started in 1983 and hit the charts with their debut album, Bon Jovi, in 1984. The name is a catchier spelling of Bon Jovi’s surname, Bongiovi. He is the son of two former Marines. His father, John Francis, a barber, is part Slovak and his mother, Carol Sharkey, a florist, of Russian and German descent. He has two brothers, Anthony and Matthew. Bon Jovi married his high school sweetheart, Dorothea Hurley, in 1989 and they have one daughter and three sons together, from eight to 18 years old. Aside from his charitable works like the Bon Jovi Soul Foundation, Pediatric AIDS, First Founding Ambassador of Habitat for Humanity’s Ambassador program, Bon Jovi has been active on the political front. He toured for John Kerry in 2004. He was part of the Live Earth concert introduced by former Vice President Al Gore. In 2008, Bon Jovi supported Barack Obama for President, hosting a major fundraiser for him. Bon Jovi performed the Sam Cooke classic “A Change is Gonna Come,” at the Inauguration Concert. In 2009, he and Richie Sambora, his longtime bandmate and Andy Madadian recorded a musical message of worldwide solidarity with the people of Iran. “We are one,” is what the Persian sign in the video means. A Grammy award winner for his duet “Who Says You Can’t Go Home,” with Sugarland’s Jennifer Nettles, the band Bon Jovi has received numerous music awards and nominations including MTV Music Awards, American Music Awards, Academy Awards (nominated for best original song, “Blaze of Glory”), Golden Globe Awards, and countless international music nominations and awards. Jon Bon Jovi’s acting credits include “Sex and the City,” The Leading Man, Destination Anywhere, Homegrown, No Looking Back, “Ally McBeal,” “The West Wing,” “30 Rock,” And last year’s film New Years Eve. It seems Bon Jovi’s role as an humanitarian is most fitting. A singing, acting humanitarian. A Sexiest Rockstar humanitarian. Soul Kitchen’s soul. That painter who brightened our screens and Elizabeth Perkin’s house with that dreamy butter yellow and his charm. Yes, go get a bite at Jon Bon Jovi’s Soul Kitchen when you’re out Jersey way. “Hope is Delicious,” Bon Jovi says. Who says you can’t go home?
He is a rock god. He is an actor. He is an activist. He is a husband and a father of four. Monmouth County Foodbank. On January 25, Project Homeless Connect 2012 joined together JBJ Soul Kitchen and the Monmouth County Department of Human Services for a Community Resource Day. People in need were fed at Soul Kitchen after they were clothed and medically screened and offered jobs at Pilgrim Baptist Church, around the corner. A fundraiser on Febuary 27 had celebrity chef, Mario Batali, of “The Chew,” cooking up his delicacies to raise money and awareness for Soul Kitchen. It sounds like a song, which is a story after all, an old mechanics shop is transformed into a community kitchen. A gathering place to feed the belly but also the heart and soul. There is a vegetable garden. A metaphorical bed of roses where community came together and brought this very necessary dream to life. Many people of all walks of life donated time and materials and elbow grease to see this heartwarming project come to be. Bon Jovi does not forget them. In his notes, he thanks each one and says: “to all of the individuals who pulled weeds, washed dishes, pushed a broom, stopped by to give words of encouragement—your support is what sustains this project.” A grateful man is this three-decade rockstar,

A YMCA on the North Fork? OMG. By Robert Sforza There has been a plan to bring a YMCA to the North Fork for over 15 years. Civil debate complicates the matter as many locals and town board members are torn between the possibility of a recreational center and the change it will bring to the rural hamlet. The plans call for a 40,000 square-foot complex on Route 25—known as Main Road to locals—slightly east of Route 105 in Aquebogue. The YMCA has found a potential seller of an 8.8-acre plot of land, across the road from Vineyard Caterers, and believes this to be an ideal location for the future center. The plans for the Y call for a preschool and a swimming pool to be built. There is no mention of a volleyball or basketball court, which many
of the Ys on the island have. Many locals see this proposal as the early stages of further commercialism of the community. Aquebogue is proud of its rural makeup and its agri-tourism, and views this application as a threat to the community’s identity. If the community is to go ahead with the construction, what will separate Riverhead from Brookhaven? “Let’s face it, people don’t go to Brookhaven to pick pumpkins,� commented Georgette Keller in a recent interview, reiterating what she previously said at civic meetings. “We represent something that doesn’t exist here on Long Island,� Keller asserted. Riverhead is in danger of losing its identity. Over the last 60 years, Long Island has

dramatically changed in character from an island of sprawling farms and pastures to a sliver of strip malls that stretch through much of Suffolk County. Agriculture and rural hamlets are Riverhead Town’s nature. For locals like Keller, a teacher at Roanoke Elementary School, it is about preserving this rural way of life. “We need to preserve our history and our heritage for our children,â€? stated Keller. Riverhead Councilman George Gabrielsen, a Jamesport resident remarks, “I object to the site‌it is not zoned for commercial use.â€? However, Gabrielsen, like many locals, doesn’t object to a Y in the Riverhead area, where it would be more sensible. “Stotzky Park would be perfect,â€? Gabrielsen adds. The predicament over the Y in Aquebogue is not so much a disagreement with a YMCA facility as it is about location. Supporters of the Peconic YMCA accuse antagonists with NIMBYism (Not In My Backyard). But many of those opposed to the Y in Aquebogue, remind fellow residents of the already heavy traffic that passes on Main Road. Councilman Gabrielsen informs that a “traffic light would have to be placed there,â€? to complement the additional traffic, which he feels would change the rural setting of the hamlet. Riverhead Town Supervisor, Sean Walter, has previously documented his support of the Y in the Aquebogue location, though at this time commented, “We are trying to come up with a solution to please all.â€? Though those in favor of the Y insist naysayers are simply afraid of change. Although at this point in time it seems unlikely the Y will come to Aquebogue, suggests Gabrielsen. Long Island has changed its identity significantly in the last half decade; there is no need for Riverhead to as well. The old meetinghouse in Jamesport, now over 275 years old, built the year before George Washington was born, is the kind of history the town wants to preserve. In my opinion, a YMCA in Riverhead is a great idea, just not on Main Road in Aquebogue.

HAMPTON BAYS
By Dan Rattiner Week of April 6-11, 2012 Riders this week: 10,412 Rider miles this week: 110,912 Down In the Tube Chevy Chase and Alec Baldwin were spotted in the same subway car traveling between Water Mill and Southampton, sitting next to one another, but busy tweeting on their cellphones rather than saying anything to one another. We’re not even sure if they noticed each other. Smoker Sues There is no smoking on the subway system. Signs are posted everywhere. Nevertheless, a woman caught smoking on the Southampton platform, who says she was humiliated and harmed by Subway officers for doing so, has now filed a $4 million lawsuit against Hampton Subway. The incident in question occurred last August 23. The woman was on the platform and a subway official saw her light a cigarette and took the appropriate action as described in The Hampton Subway Handbook. The official took a fire extinguisher down from the subway wall and hosed the woman down with firefighting foam. The sad thing about this is that it has been intended that this directive in the Handbook be repealed. The directive was originally put into effect in 2007 when the ban on smoking on the subway began. Within a week, another woman, not this woman, was hosed down and sued Hampton Subway for $3 million for ruining an expensive pair of Blahnik shoes and an outfit by Chanel. Hampton Subway settled with her for an undisclosed amount. The week after the settlement, it was decided to end this cruel and inhuman punishment, but the Board never got around to bringing the matter to a vote. And so now, we have THIS. Lexington Line Sold to Toronto Hampton Subway purchased the New York Subway System four weeks ago and since then there has been nothing but trouble. Turns out that the unions now expect Hampton Subway to pay all the salaries, bonuses, overtime, vacation pay, pensions and medical bills of everyone who works at the New York Subway System. At first, Hampton Subway thought this purchase was a great bargain. But as it became apparent that the weekly deficit was up around $2 million, our Commissioner, Bill Aspinall, has had second thoughts. An attempt to sell the system back to New York City for the same $1 we paid for it has foundered, with Mayor Bloomberg saying a deal is a deal. And so we have now gone into contract to sell the Lexington Avenue Line to the Toronto Subway for $54 million. This will give us some breathing room. Guns on the Subway Two women got into a catfight on the Westhampton Beach platform last Thursday afternoon. The altercation, which involved a toy poodle, started with some pushing and shoving, escalated into hair pulling and punching and ripping of clothes, and then ended suddenly
when one of the women pulled a revolver and demanded the other woman hand over the canvas bag containing the poodle, which she did, at which point the first woman ran off. As you know, no dogs are allowed on the subway unless they are small enough to be carried in a canvas bag, so this poodle was legal. In any case, the appearance of the revolver came as something of a shock to the Subway police who do not carry guns (for fear that the bullets from them might ricochet and hurt bystanders). As a result of this altercation, the matter
came up at last Wednesday’s board meeting of the subway directors. It was determined that in the last five years seven people have been arrested for carrying pistols on the subway system. All were subsequently convicted and incarcerated and so have paid their debt to society. It was decided by the Board that these seven people be contacted and offered jobs—a humanitarian gesture—working for the subway system on the platforms as enforcers. They will work with the Subway Police who will call them in when necessary. The board also decided to approve a “stand your ground” rule for the enforcers. They will be allowed to kill first and ask questions later. Commissioner Aspinall’s Message The Commissioner is in a private bargaining session with Mayor Bloomberg of New York City at City Hall about things and did not file a report this week.

TWENTY SOMETHING by David Lion Rattiner
The Skinny on Sugar Sometimes I can’t figure out if I’m smart or if the rest of the world is stupid when it comes to health. The other day I watched an entire segment on “60 Minutes” titled, “Is Sugar Toxic?” with the overall message that if you eat too much sugar, you will get all kinds of ailments such as heart disease, diabetes and obesity. The show has caused a national discussion about sugar, and whether or not it is toxic to our bodies. It’s remarkable how ridiculous it has become. Articles in The New York Times have been written up on the work of Doctor Robert Lustig, who has become a www.youtube. com star by discussing how sugar is not just bad for you, but toxic. Lustig is the leading expert in childhood obesity at the University of California, San Francisco Center for Obesity, Assessment, Study and Treatment. He basically states, over and over again, that sugar is bad for you and will lead to serious health problems if you eat too much of it. Apparently, this is new and fascinating information. The world famous Doctor Sanjay Gupta has weighed in on the story. The two doctors
danshamptons.com
discuss in an interview with one another, as if they have just discovered that sugar is bad for you. It’s just so absurd to me. They discuss how sugar is as addicting as cocaine, that it causes cancer and that it’s causing obesity. GET OUT OF TOWN? SUGAR IS BAD FOR YOU? IT MAKES YOU FAT AND CAUSES HEALTH PROBLEMS? WHAT A FREAKING NEWS FLASH. I’m sorry, folks, but we have got to stop dumbing down America so much, it’s just so embarrassing to me. Of course sugar is bad for you. Everybody has known that since they were five years old. Of course sugar makes you fat. Calorie dense, high fat, high sugar foods consumed in large portions with little exercise make you fat. Everybody knows that. Cancer? Everything that is done in excess causes cancer. You could say eating apples causes cancer, and find evidence to support it. I just don’t get why we allow serious professionals to get away with talking to us as if we are children and have no idea how to lead our lives. We all know it’s bad for us. We all know we shouldn’t eat so much of it. We eat it anyway because it tastes good, just like anything else that is unhealthy. Avoid it when you can, take responsibility for yourself, stop acting shocked when you don’t feel well after going on whacky diets or eating high fat/sugary
foods and wondering if medicine or government has an answer for you. It’s ridiculous. I’ve been reading articles by serious people suggesting that sugar be outlawed. It’s not sugar that is the problem, it’s people who think they can solve every problem in the world through a series of controls, that are the problem. Outlaw sugar? Are you kidding me? How about say, “Don’t eat sugar, it’s not good for you, try to limit it and take some responsibility for your own health.” It’s people like these “experts” that are the problem with health. They go to extremes, and convince way too many other people to go to extremes, and anything to the extreme is bad for you, even water. But all of a sudden a hot news story on sugar happens, and we are now going to have thousands of people who are going to go on whacky diets that will be impossible to maintain. What’s the next health fad? Let me guess, we are going to have a ground-breaking story about how bottled water is killing us all thanks to the BPA in it and we all need to go back to drinking tap water, which will also kill you. Oh and let’s not forget that if you eat bacon all day you’ll lose weight because there are no carbs. Good luck with that. Grow up.

Change is coming “...think it’s time we stopped, hey, what’s that sound, everybody look what’s going down...” —Buffalo Springfield, circa 1968 The Island is changing, actually, it’s always changing just like every other hamlet on the East End, you only notice it as you age. I recall when the Island had an abundance of year round rentals because no one wanted to live in such an isolated place and deal with the winter ferry rides—as they pushed through high tides and ice flows, they could be scarier than any rattling jerry-rigged traveling carnival ride. Now, the cheapest rentals start at $1,000 a month and pop up to $5,000 a month and more for June, July and August. It forces many Islanders to be marooned off-Island during the summers and jostle and beg for the few rentals in winter. Nothing is as certain as change and nothing can ever be how it was when we were younger and couldn’t appreciate what we had. Such is the nature of societies everywhere I suppose. Funding for Varsity Cross Country running had to be cut from the school budget this year. I felt sad to learn that. I have fond memories of watching the boys running and training all over the Island in those cute shiny shorts. When I was in school in the 70’s, the coach, whose name escapes me, had the boys run on the beach in the soft sand all the time. What a workout for the legs! And I bet many of us remember getting gas at Picozzi’s and being served by guys with big ankle weights on their legs. We saw them all over town with those big thick cuffs around their ankles to build up those muscles. It must have paid off—the Island did well in Cross Country then. This week, I read in The Shelter Island Reporter how domestic violence is way up, too high for such a small population. What’s happening here? Are we going forward in technology and backward in civility? Something to ponder. Yet, would we go back in time if we could? Often people say yes, but regardless of the additional challenges of today, I say no. There are too many things we didn’t have in the 70’s. No personal computers, no cellphones. No SPF in anything—we slathered baby oil on ourselves and then laid on the beach with the transistor radio (the highest tech at the time) tuned to 77WABC where Cousin Brucie would play the hits and announce his “tanning time schedule,” letting us girls know when 15 minutes had gone by and tell us all to turn over. He did that for his whole four-hour show and was responsible for some of the best tans on the Island. We brought gallons of Sun-In to the beach to spray on our hair and create lovely blonde streaks that later in the fall turned orange and broke off. We lived on Tab and Fresca, all cans had pull tabs and we made chains from them. Pull tabs were all over on the ground, anywhere you went. Tampons were brand new and uncomfortable. But worst of all, since the womens’ movement
Millions of women spent two days a month bent in half with pain, all for attention—right. It wasn’t until women started to become doctors that cramps became the formal diagnosis of dysmenorrhea, and finally in the 80’s, Motrin, originally for arthritis, was developed and saved us all from calling in sick two days a month. It’s good to remember what wasn’t so good when reminiscing, keeps things in balance. It’s nice that Dan’s Papers is still with us, back then and now. It’s kinda like when we had Johnny Carson. Up or down, thin or flush, we always had Johnny to watch at 11:30. I guess we’ll have to clone Dan to keep the paper going. But I’m not sure how we’re gonna clone the hat...

See story on page 31. * * * Steven Gaines, bestselling author of Philistines at the Hedgerow: Passion and Property in the Hamptons, wrote a piece for New York Magazine about personal beach rights in the Hamptons last week. Wrote Gaines, “The once unthinkable is happening— homeowners are trying to privatize the sand.” * * * Amagansett’s Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick are reportedly swapping their West Village pad for a pair of adjacent townhomes in Brooklyn. The combined living space will feature 7,000 square feet and a big backyard—and should be a nice place for Broderick to return to after a long day performing in his new play, Nice Work If You Can Get It, which opened at the Imperial Theater last week. * * * Famous South Fork exes, Christie Brinkley and Peter Cook, talked about their postdivorce drama in separate “Today Show” appearances last week. The day after Brinkley broke down during an interview with Water Mill’s Matt Lauer, Cook told host Savannah Guthrie that his ex-wife’s claims were “nonsense.” Cook also had words for David Rattiner’s commentary on the subject posted
on www.danshamptons.com. * * * In addition to the Levine family, farmers and foodies, the Second Annual Joshua Levine Foundation Dinner was attended by Congressman Tim Bishop and artist Daria Deshuk. Winners of the First Annual Josh Levine Memorial Foundation Garden Coordinator positions are: K.K. Haspel, Peter Priolo and Jeff Negron. Negron is on fire, in addition to this honor, he was tapped by Chef Tom Colicchio to design and oversee the kitchen garden at the new Topping Rose House in Bridgehampton. At about 16,000 square feet, the plan will be for this garden to provide most of the herbs and produce for the restaurant. Negron is also scheduled to speak at the Small Farm Summit at Hofstra University on April 14. See related stories on pages 29 and 42. * * * Morsels: Haute Living recently ranked its Top 5 Hamptons Five-Star Restaurants.

CLASSIC CARS by Bob Gelber
My annual 2012 Good, Bad and Ugly Awards for the new cars. First, the really good looking stuff. One new four-door passenger car that really impresses me with its sheer design integrity is the Kia Optima four-door sedan. This car looks like it costs twice as much as its $21,000 base price. Its sexy good looks have to be attributed to the fact that Kia was smart enough to hire the ex-head of design for Audi. It shows, because the Optima has a genuine British (Jaguar) and German look to it. It simply blows away its overstyled sister car, the Hyundai Sonata, with which it shares the same chassis, engine and transmission. It certainly puts to shame the boring looking new Jetta/Passat and Toyota four-door sedans. With much German fanfare, a new Porsche 911 has just been introduced and surprise, it looks just like the old one. Only a real Porsche nut could tell the difference between a 1965 model and this new 2012 if it roared by at high speed on the road. All kidding aside, Porsche got it right in ‘65, and that old shape still works. Sure, the body has been made more muscular and manly with roughly 300 horsepower, since the original had only 130 horses! However, over the years, Porsches have also gotten larger and much more expensive. Surprisingly, the new one is almost as big as a Porsche 928, a car Porsche buffs all seem to hate. Truth be told, this new 911 is probably the best one yet, but in my car heart of hearts I wish it were smaller and more affordable. A wellequipped new one can run about $100,000. Every new Ferrari model is a joy to behold and drive, and the new Ferrari Italia is simply the best sports car in the world. However, it saddens me that the greatest sports car in the world doesn’t offer the option of a stick shift with a clutch. What happened to their heritage? Maybe I’m just old fashioned, but I don’t like shifting with a paddle shifter, the only Ferrari shifter offered. Please, the powers that be at Ferrari, remember the old days, and bring back the stick shift. By the way, the price of most Ferrari models makes a Porsche 911 look like a bargain. I recently had the use of a new Ford Focus for a week, and I was impressed. Quite simply, this car, along with the Cadillac CTS sports sedan, is probably the best handling sedan built in America. Since it is a purely European design transplanted in the USA, I expected the car to handle, but it exceeded my expectations. The overall driving experience is diminished by a wheezy-sounding engine. The car is peppy enough for an inexpensive sedan or hatchback with 160 HP, and it gets excellent gas mileage. Why can’t Ford make an engine with proper music? On the plus side, the car has excellent build quality,
and is especially handsome and practical as a hatchback. The Focus and the Kia Optima are two excellent new family sedans and they cost about the same. The Fiat 500 is about the cutest thing on the highway, but it’s quite simply too expensive for what it offers. The new hot-rod Abarth version, for about $3,000 more than a base 500 ($21,000 vs. $18,000) gives you 170 HP vs. 100 and with a revised suspension, is a thousand times more fun to drive. Trust me, this is the one to have. The Fiat’s main competition is the Mini, which in Mini-Cooper hot rod form is the equivalent of the Abarth Fiat. The Mini is a much larger car, which sounds silly, but it really is, with superior build quality, and a more advanced suspension. It is also more expensive than the Fiat by about $5,000. My personal choice is the Mini. I currently own a
April 6, 2012 Page 37 new Cooper S. Both the Mini and the Abarth are a blast to drive. Years ago, I had a Fiat 500, except it was the 1950’s original with 24 horsepower and a 1968 Mini Cooper S. I’ll still take the vintage Mini. Thankfully, there aren’t many really ugly cars around, although I certainly would not take a Kia Soul or a Nissan Cube to the prom. These cars actually make the old Pontiac Aztek look good. No kidding. General Motors is finally making good-looking machines, and I must be getting old but even some new Buicks have sex appeal. Chrysler has some goodlooking new products that are in dire need of new engines. Fiat, Chrysler’s new partner, will soon be supplying advanced powertrains. Ford is on a roll, if they can only get their electronic dashboard to make sense. I hate electronics in cars, but that’s a whole other article.

NORTH FORK HAMPTONS EPICURE Stacy Dermont
MAKE and Enjoy Local Wine!
As a year-round South Forker, I am a huge fan of the North Fork. The wine, the farms, the people, the vistas, the wine, the food, did I mention the wine? The new book Making Wines, Liqueurs and Cordials was written by an Englishwoman, Beshlie Grimes. Grimes offers a wide selection of recipes for wines, syrups, cordials, lemonades and liqueurs. Significantly – and deliciously – these recipes are easily transferable to the East End of Long Island. The ingredient lists, the instructions and the required equipment are all quite basic. Beshlie offers a no-nonsense approach to natural, home wine and spirit making. I can’t think of a better place to put this book to use than the North Fork, and I can’t wait for local produce!
Peaches and cherries from Davis Peach Farm will make spectacular peach and cherry wines. Fresh, organic herbs from the Greenport Farmers Market for lovage liqueur and lemongrass syrup…lavender from Lavender by the Bay to make lavender-ginger lemonade and lavender liqueur. There’s that cute little fig tree behind the North Fork Table restaurant in Southold right next to their Lunch Truck. Do you think they’d let me defoliate it a bit for a batch of fig leaf liqueur? I’d share. There are no recipes for asparagus beverages in this book but rhubarb season is right around the corner and the rhubarb-vanilla liqueur recipe looks fabu. In fact all of the photos in this book are gorgeous. I’m sure that there are other good winemaking books out there but this one is beautiful and simple - like my ideal trip to the North Fork. I’ve become a devotee of this tome. So far I have a pear liqueur and an apple liqueur steeping in my basement. It takes MONTHS for this stuff to mature! But that’s part of the joy of this enterprise.
When (if) winter winds start to blow, I’ll have bottles of fruity bright flavors to enjoy. Bottle some good stuff for yourself. Full disclosure: Inspired by this book, I snipped some mint from my neighbor’s yard and stuffed it into a bottle of LiV vodka. I expect mint schnapps in a week, with daily shakings. There’s no recipe in the book for this…but I’m confident that drinking it won’t kill me. I’m also confident that I won’t be putting any North Fork wineries out of business anytime soon. In fact my home winemaking may make me appreciate professionallyproduced local wine even more. Some of my favorites come from Comtesse Thérèse, Macari, Sherwood House and Shinn. Yeah, I’m definitely due for a tasting at Sherwood House…

By Kelly Laffey Situated 110 miles away from the hustle and bustle of New York – and mere steps away from the hustle and bustle of the more ‘tony’ of the Hamptons – Montauk has long been known as Long Island’s oasis of calm. Through the ever-evolving Montauk scene, Gurney’s Inn Resort and Spa will always ensure that The End retains that moniker. Gurney’s has been a famed destination for beach-goers since 1926. More than just a hotel, Gurney’s offers guests a luxurious experience with its oceanfront location and renowned restaurants and spa. “The views at Gurney’s are unlike any other,” says Kelly Shelley, the Advertising Manager at Gurney’s. “Coming to work in Montauk everyday is more like a vacation than work.” Kelly used to work as the Art Director at Dan’s Papers, and she has shared some insight into her work day with us. She has also shared some cookies from Gurney’s Beach Bakery – they’re the perfect antidote to the hectic Tuesday nights when we’re working to get the latest copy of Dan’s Papers on the stands.

Get Away to Gurney’s in Montauk
“The biggest difference is that Gurney’s is a resort, and Dan’s is a publication. At Gurney’s, it is like I work for many different businesses, we have two restaurants, the spa, a salon and then the hotel itself. I am responsible for the marketing of all,” says Kelly. “Here I work on many different products throughout the work week, and while I have deadlines I don’t have a weekly paper to get out.” Gurney’s has a well-established reputation as a resort for people looking to escape for a few days and as a destination for groups looking to host a specific event. The resort can accommodate a variety of gatherings, from world-class business meetings to large wedding parties to intimate smaller gatherings. In addition, Gurney’s has its own schedule of special events and preplanned weekend retreats. “May 11-13 is our Family Reunion Weekend. As a family operated business for over 50 years, Gurney’s knows a thing or two about the importance of reconnecting relatives,” says Kelly. Other upcoming special weekends include the Yoga & Spa Retreat Weekend May 4-6. Gurney’s meticulously plans the schedule for the package deal, which includes ocean view accommodations, breakfast and dinner each morning, unlimited use of the Sea Water Spa facilities, yoga classes, guided nature and beach walks and music and dancing each night. Kelly also contributes her artistic know-how to other projects including making menus, large format posters, package design, digital signage, vinyl signage and maintaining the website. And for her efforts, we hear that she’s rewarded with complimentary treatments in the luxurious Sea Water Spa. The spa harnesses the power of the sea to provide guests with the ultimate in healing and relaxation. The facilities include a seawater indoor pool, sauna, steam room and fitness center. It’s hard to believe that New Yorkers don’t have to travel far for the ultimate experience in relaxation. Steal away to Gurney’s year-round to recharge and reinvigorate your daily life. Be sure to check the website (http://gurneysinn. com) for coming events and special deals.

& The view from The garden Jeanelle Myers
When I was a girl, most of my relatives had been or were farmers. They were dry land farmers except my Uncle Les. He irrigated from the Republican River. They grew several different crops and raised assorted animals, some for their use and some to sell, and they all had vegetable gardens. These were what we think of today as “traditional” family farms; the whole family worked on the farm. Over time, all of these family farms were sold to other farmers who farmed many acres, usually in one crop. I watched from college and then New York as the farm situation in the country changed into agribusiness and its sequel was pollution, low nutrient food, genetically modified seeds, soil degradation, the collapse of small towns and on and on. But, I was happy to see a concurrent agricultural movement evident in increasing numbers of farmers markets and growing awareness of the possibility and goodness of locally grown food. I was delighted to see that people were choosing to support themselves by growing food and supplying it to farmers markets. And then last year I went
to the Small Farm Summit held at Old Westbury and discovered that there are many people choosing to be involved with food growing in many different kinds of situations and many of them were young people. This summit was put together by The North Shore Land Alliance with the purpose of bringing “together in one place diverse groups that have an interest in local food, land use, the farm-to-table chain, and social interaction between farmer and community.” And diverse it was. Joel Salatin, whose farm and farming practices were featured in the bestselling book The Omnivore’s Dilemma, was the opening speaker. He has developed a truly sustainable farming method and has become a real role model. Salatin says. “Many people are growing fearful of today’s opaque, concentrated, and long distance industrial food market. Community-based, soilbuilding food systems answer these fears in exciting ways. Re-embedding the butcher, baker, and candlestick maker is great for local economies and for the integrity of food systems. For lots of reasons, healing begins at home. Food healing begins there too.” And then there were talks and discussions on: farming on Long Island, school gardens starting an organic vegetable garden, raising poultry, nutrient-dense crops, economic development for sustainable farming, food and farm policy at the state and national levels, raising honey bees, local food systems: Co-ops, restaurants, and communitysupported programs and more! There were panel talks about social justice and hunger, and various funding possibilities available for farmers. People from Brooklyn who grew vegetable gardens on
rooftops, a group that grew food for a food pantry, apprentice farmers from community-sponsored farms and people who were from community gardens in the city all attended the event. It was thrilling to be there and to hear about all of these interesting happenings and listening to all of the excitement. It was evidence of a revolution in food production, eating and community. And I was filled with hope for the future to see all of the young people there who had chosen to address these concerns and to live this lifestyle. Well, the second Small Farm Summit is being held on April 14 at Hofstra University. These are their goals and objectives: Increase awareness of both organic and conventional agricultural efforts in our community Advance knowledge of local food sources, including CSAs, retail markets, farmstands, restaurants and more. Educate the community on the skills and resources needed to grow healthy fruits and vegetables on small farms and in home, school and community gardens Advocate for legislative initiatives to protect agricultural land and to promote sustainable farming Support efforts to make local food affordable and available to hunger action organizations, schools hospitals and others in need. It should be an inspiring and informative experience. If you want to go, go to www. smallfarmsummit.com, or contact the North Shore Land Alliance at 516-626-0908. See you there! For gardening discussion, call Jeanelle Myers at 631-434-5067.

& simple art of cooking by Silvia Lehrer
I was once asked to speak about the specialty foods of Easter and Passover. It is significant that both of these holidays frequently coincide, as it does this weekend, and it is no coincidence. The two holidays are about deliverance, rebirth and renewal. And for this reason eggs play a significant role in both holidays. Eggs play a prominent role in many of the recipes we cook for Easter and Passover. Culturally traditional foods are prepared for the holidays. We share these moments with family and extended family because it means so much to us. Easter is chief among the Christian holidays and is celebrated with a festive meal at the end of Holy Week, which began on Palm Sunday. It is the anniversary of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. At Passover, Jews the world over celebrate one of their most beautiful and cherished traditions, the Passover Seder. The purpose of the Seder is to relate the history of the exodus of enslaved people from Egypt to our children. In so doing, the Haggadah, a special book is read from. This is told at the ceremonial dinner as the participants dine on the symbolic foods of the holiday. Baskets of Easter eggs with their colorful hues,
the fun of preparing them and the hunt happily draw children into the holiday. For Sephardic Jews, Jews of the Iberian Peninsula, huevos haminados, long cooked eggs are significant for the Jewish Sabbath but also play a prominent role during Passover. The eggs are cooked in lots of water to cover at the barest simmer your stove can handle for 6 or 7 hours, topped with a mantle of onion skins This always brings a huge unbelievable WHAT! – 6 to 7 hours? They emerge a kind of tie-dye color with a delicious creamy texture, much like the poached unborn chicken egg from fresh killed poultry. One of the joys of both holidays is that it signals the beginning of spring. On the festive Easter table one of the most popular dishes is a roast leg of lamb or a ham. At this time of the year there is a welcome abundance of asparagus and artichokes and so these foods are significant for the holiday as well –as they are on the Passover table. HUEVOS HAMINADOS Huevos haminados are eggs that cook very slowly for many hours. They emerge a beautiful reddish brown color with a rich creamy taste. This uniquely Sephardic dish is one of the most ancient dishes of the Mediterranean. It is always included in Sabbath celebrations and appears on other holiday tables such as Passover. Eggs, enough for each guest for the Passover
Seder Red or brown onion skins, or both Square of double layer of cheesecloth Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 1. Have the eggs at room temperature. Put them in a deep, 5 to 6 quart pot with a tight-fitting lid and fill the pot with water almost to the top. Place the onionskins over the top, cover with a square of cheesecloth and cover the pot. Bring to a low simmer. Lower heat to the barest simmer your range can handle, cover tightly and simmer for 6 to 7 hours, checking the water level occasionally.

2. Discard onionskins; Can rinse and reuse the cheesecloth. Remove the eggs carefully with a slotted spoon when done and serve warm or at room temperature sprinkled with salt and pepper to taste. Note: Even with the lengthy cooking time, the eggs are tender and as tasty as a poached unborn chicken egg from freshly killed poultry. This was a treat that my mother saved for me. As one of five kids, perhaps this was the epiphany that led me to a career in food. LAMB STEW, ITALIAN STYLE Everyone loves Italian food. This recipe would do well on both the Easter and Passover table. The addition of red wine vinegar gives this stew, from the area around Spoleto, Italy, a flavorsome tang. Serves 8 to 10 3 to 4 pounds leg of lamb or lamb shoulder, cut into 1-inch pieces Flour to dredge lamb pieces 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons canola oil 4 cloves garlic, finely chopped Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper 4 to 5 carrots, thinly sliced 8 to 10 new potatoes, scrubbed and cut into large dice 1/2 cup red wine vinegar 2 to 3 cups low-sodium chicken or beef broth 1 to 2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary 1 tablespoon lemon juice or to taste (continued on page 47)

Review: Village Gourmet Cheese Shoppe
L: dougtone/R: K. Laffey
By Kelly Laffey Easter is fast approaching, and we’re all hoping that a certain cuddly creature leaves us a nice basket of decadent goodies. Just in case that plan falls through – or, if you’re the one who plays the Easter bunny and you need an idea – The Village Gourmet Cheese Shoppe on Main Street in Southampton has the perfect remedy with their specialty cheese baskets. The Dan’s Papers staff was fortunate to indulge in the Southampton mainstay’s specialty, as Marketing Manager Danni Grecu made up a basket for us to sample some of the locale’s finest products. Grecu included five different spreads, and it was tough for me to pick a favorite. I’m partial to goat cheese, and really enjoyed the Humbolt Fog—an amazing goat’s milk cheese from California. We also tried the English Cheddar, the Shoppe’s No. 1 selling cheddar cheese. It had a sharp but creamy flavor, and Grecu noted that it would go well with both red and white wine. Among the other cheese was a block of Greek Feta that had me pining for the accompanying salad ingredients. And there was a Beemster X-O, the Shoppe’s extra old Gouda cheese. The fifth spread was a duck with port foie gras pâté.
Rich and creamy, you didn’t need to put a lot on a cracker to get the full flavor. Many commented on how delicious it would be on top of a steak. The gift basket included something for everyone – even, a few coworkers who are trying to cut carbs happily noted, crackers made of cheese to replace traditional wheat crackers. Among the favorites was Mrs. Crumble’s and Kitchen Table Bakers’ Aged Parmesan Crisps. Both were wheat and gluten free. Though I was partial to Mrs. Crumbles – they had
the texture of a traditional cracker – the crisps were all devoured with zeal. There was also a smattering of olives, which always pair perfectly with cheese and crackers. And the fine chocolate bar was a welcome addition. The Village Gourmet Cheese Shoppe offers a wide assortment of gift basket options and customizations. The Shoppe sells the finest cheese accompaniments, olive oils, pasta, coffees, teas and sweet treats. They also have numerous sandwiches, panini, wraps and salads, which are made-to-order with the freshest ingredients for breakfast and lunch. In addition, the Shoppe serves a daily selection of Hale & Hearty soups. And, patrons can enjoy a panino and small soup for $10 on weekdays. Though simple, my favorite creation has always been the Caprese with its fresh mozzarella and tomato on a grilled panino with baby spinach leaves and pesto. I think I’ll have to stop in to try it again sometime soon. The Village Gourmet Cheese Shoppe, 11 Main Street, Southampton, 631-283-6949, http:// villagecheeseshoppe.com

1/4 to 1/3 cup chopped flat-leaf Italian parsley 1. For the stew use either lamb shank or shoulder. If using shoulder lamb the cooking would be longer than for the leg of lamb. Trim the lamb of fat and sinew and cut into pieces. Dust the lamb with flour. 2. Heat the combined oils in a large skillet and saute the lamb, a few pieces at a time, until golden brown on both sides. Transfer to a dish as they are done. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 3. Add garlic to the same pan the lamb cooked in and saute briefly, then add the carrots and potatoes tossing to coat the mixture. Add red wine vinegar and bring to the edge of a boil, stirring to deglaze the pan drippings. Return the lamb to the skillet, add enough broth to cover the meat, and the rosemary. Bring to a boil then adjust heat to medium-low. Cover pan and simmer briskly for 30 to 35 minutes until lamb is tender, test for doneness as the shoulder will need longer cooking. Add lemon juice and stir into the sauce. Taste to adjust seasoning if necessary. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve hot.

& ART COMMENTARY by Marion W. Weiss
“Spring Quintet” at Southampton Cultural Center
Spring means many things to many people: green grass, blossoming flowers, warmer weather. It also connotes awakenings, renewals, new beginnings. And “letting loose.” (Consider the ritual of Spring Break.) Spring is also popular as a theme in the arts; a TV movie, “The Spring,” features the Fountain of Youth and rebirth. The season is associated with certain celebrations as well, including May Day, Easter and the Festival of Colors in India. The Southampton Cultural Center’s art exhibit, “Spring Quintet,” evokes none of these associations, nor did curator Arlene Bujese intend it to do so. Yet there is some connection: spring is a time when most people feel joyous after a long winter. Simply put, the show’s paintings and sculptures make us feel good. However, the intriguing part is more specific. How do these works accomplish this feeling? Bujese has a good eye for selecting pieces that relate to each other, aesthetically speaking. This
HONORING THE ARTIST by Marion W. Weiss
Adeline Heurteau This week’s cover artist, Adeline Heurteau, aptly writes on her website that “elegance, fierceness and grace are ever present in my paintings. I am trying to show the most subtle, the most precious aspects of reality.” We couldn’t agree more. The artist also explains how she establishes these qualities regarding her “Rabbit Series,” one of which is on the cover: “The Rabbit Series is created with an emphasis on compositional elements which are very similar to music, composed with harmonies and textures to create mood and feeling.” Again, we couldn’t agree more. Heurteau’s realistic techniques, while often mirroring Old Master paintings, also evoke Expressionism. Consider her portraits of women and nudes where brush strokes are both gentle and fierce. Yet her rabbit images can also be interpreted as surreal. (She has a particular penchant for Dali, Ernst and Magritte.) A rabbit sculpture looking up at another bunny painting on the wall evokes the intriguing idea of “the doppelganger.” So does the piece wherein a reclining nude female is looking at a real bunny beside her, suggesting the commonalities between them. Q: Even though you live in New York now, what do you miss most about Paris where you grew up?

Consider other Oddly enough, such formal paintings, like “Grey,” where qualities may also signal “new there’s a definite feeling that beginnings.” The meaning of something new and mysterious spring, therefore, may still play is about to appear, perhaps a subtle part in the show after because of the dark water in the all. foreground. Consider Deborah Black’s Paintings by Jane Johnson “Path of Bay 7,” where landscape also create a sense of forms lead our eye to a space in transitional movement when the distance, a new place that her abstract objects stand alone we haven’t experienced before. on the beach (“Landshades”) Black’s “Nature’s Altar” series with the possibility that they is also about form and motion, may actually fade into the but these shapes are whirling in Spring Landscape sea. The artist’s still lifes (i.e. space and we are in the middle pears and apples) evoke another of the event. We can imagine that when the movement stops and things have movement as the shapes blend into one another; the settled down, there will be a new configuration to result brings a new kind of fruit into being. This kind of development leads us to Ronnie comprehend. The Bay Series by Margery Gosnell-Qua is an Chalif’s small abstract sculptures, which share arresting experience where we see settings change similarities with Johnson’s “Landshades.” Both before our eyes, as if we were looking out the window Chalif’s sculptures and Johnson’s beach objects of a car or train.

But this observation proves false as we look again. Cultural Center (25 Pond Lane) until April 25. Call Some images seem calm (“Avalon”) but there’s 631-287-4377 for information. A: I miss most walking down the street in the morning, smelling the croissants. And at the end of the day, when Paris wakes up, having an aperitif, like a kir, at a café. But New York wakes up then, too, and I can have a kir. I miss Paris but not always the people. They complain all the time. Doing business they act like old people. Here older people act like 20-yearolds. That’s great. People talk to you, especially when you have a dog like I do. Q: I know you are living across from Central Park now on the West Side, but you have to move soon. No matter where you move, however, you like to stay here at Cedar Point. Why is that? A: New York is great, wonderful, but I need to get away from distractions and to have a place to paint. I like both worlds. And I like change. Q: Speaking of change, where will you move next in New York? A: I don’t know. I like to live in different neighborhoods. I don’t get attached to one neighborhood. Q: Coming to New York was certainly a big change for you. And adventurous. How did you get there? A: It’s a long story. In Paris, I was in fashion design, and I met an Englishman from Canada. One of his best friends was Dubai’s Prime Minister who offered him a job in Dubai. My boyfriend asked me to come with him. I was always attracted to North Africa; I had visited Tunisia and loved the colors of the country, the joie de vivre. But we had to be married to go to Dubai. So I became a housewife, getting my license so I could drive there, painting and taking classes. We had a huge house with five
bedrooms and a maid. And I really didn’t want children. After three years, I came to New York with one suitcase for a summer program at the New York Academy of Art to escape the heat in Dubai. I never went back. Q: Why did you leave? Really. A: I needed a new beginning. I needed to study art. This is my life. I want to travel the world. However, 12 years later, I’m still here. Q: Regardless of that, going from an affluent lifestyle to New York was an adjustment for sure. A: I lived in a small room at a women’s residence hall when I first came to New York, but it didn’t matter. I wanted to learn art. I became friends with one of my teachers who was my mentor, and we painted together privately. Then I got my own studio, but he’s still in my life. He gives me good critiques. Q: You have certainly come a long way. Why are rabbits a special subject for you? A: I have had rabbits since I was seven years old. In Dubai, I had a rabbit with his own room. I took him with me to New York, but I had to hide him where I lived. But having a rabbit reminds me of when I was a child. My father told me, “Never forget who you were as a little girl.” I have a dog now, a dachshund named Bobby. He’s like a child to me. Q: Do you have any other life lessons that you take with you? A: Yes. To go fast, you have to take your time. And, the more you paint, the more you learn. For more information: www.adeline heurteau.com, heurteau@aol.com

LETTERS CRAB OF THE WEEK Dear Dan, Former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s daughter Chelsea Clinton, like former President George Bush’s daughter Jenna Bush, did not obtain her job as an “NBC Nightly News” full-time correspondent by responding to a help wanted ad in The New York Times. “Neighbor Chelsea Clinton Journalist” (Nanci E. LaGarenne – March 23). Surely there are hundreds if not thousands of better-qualified legitimate reporters with real journalism credentials available to fill these positions. No outcry from the Wall Street protestors and other “politically correct” liberals of how the “1%” are now taking away jobs from the other “99%”! I have over two decades plus of experience as a seasoned Letters to the Editor writer for Dan’s Papers. My submissions have been found worthy enough to be published on several hundred occasions discussing numerous local, state, national and international issues. I don’t have famous parents to help me get ahead. They were just a simple teacher and housewife. How can I join Chelsea and sign up as a fellow “NBC Nightly News” correspondent? Dan, I was wondering if you could use your influence and provide me with a letter of introduction or recommendation to “NBC Nightly News” Anchor Brian Williams? Sincerely, Larry Penner Great Neck You have to have been foaled by a Presidential spouse. Sorry. –DR CALL FOR DAN’S PAPERS! Dear Dan, Here in Ronkonkoma Dan’s Papers are not as available as on the East End. However, I was given a recent copy and enjoyed reading your article about the windmills. In it you mentioned one that had been moved from Shelter Island. Our small group has biked on Shelter Island many times over the years. But on our hike on January 8, of this year, we spotted an old windmill. This was made possible because of the recent removal of an invasive vine called Asiatic Bittersweet in the Mashomack Preserve. Its location is south of the large field at the trail intersection marked “F” on the Preserve map. I cannot believe that we never saw it before as we passed there many times in the past. I just thought I would let you know in case you didn’t know already. Rich Hollmann Ronkonkoma Wait til bamboo leaps across to Shelter Island. –DR FLY AMERICAN… Dear Dan, I would like to let you know how much I enjoy Dan’s Papers. I obtain a number of copies (about 25), each week from King Kullen here in Syosett, Manhattan and Port Washington and distribute them to 10 different neighbors, five fellow flight attendants, including my supervisor, two cousins, one bank teller and two garage mechanics, keeping several for myself in my flight bag to distribute to interested business travelers. I fly for American Airlines at JFK Airport, with turn-around flights to the Dominican Republic and sometimes to Haiti. I recently left a copy of Dan’s Papers with the Concierge at the Hotel Gran Almirante in Santiago when we had a layover there. Everyone truly enjoys Dan’s Papers and I enjoy giving it to them. Thanking you so very much for the wonderful and informative publication. Keep up the good work and enjoy your new office in

Southampton. My best to you, family and staff… Audrey Lavin Syosett We’ve had people sending us photos of themselves in Antarctica –DR HELLO KITTY Dear Dan, I wanted to write you to let you know how much I enjoyed your article “My Cat The Dog” in a recent issue. I cannot agree with you more that cats are underrated! I am the Founder and President of L.I. Kitties, Inc. a 501 c3 non-profit cat and kitten rescue based in Speonk. We have rescued and placed close to 700 cats and kittens. I run an ad in your paper every week to try to find homes for all my rescued kittens and cats. In this economy, this task is becoming more and more difficult. If you are ever interested in adopting another feline friend, I currently have many that are still waiting for homes and so many more I want to help, but can’t until some of the ones I have are adopted. Visit my website for more information on my organization: www.likitties.com Again, thank you for writing such an insightful article. Sincerely, Sharon Ippolito President, LI Kitties, Inc. We can’t give up our cat Hank –DR APRIL FOOL Dear Dan, With April 1 right behind us, it appears that the meat industry is playing us as April Fools by hiding its violations of humane and sanitary laws. Under intense pressure from the meat lobby, Iowa and Utah have enacted the infamous “ag-gag” laws that criminalize taking or possessing photographs and videotapes documenting the atrocious treatment of animals in factory farms and slaughterhouses. Six
askdan@danspapers.com (e-mails only, please) other state legislatures (Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, and New York) have been considering such legislation. As these bills were being debated, the head of the World Health Organization forecast the “end of modern medicine,” unless the meat industry stops its wholesale use of antibiotics. Industry uses these drugs to ensure that animals survive the extreme crowding of factory farms. Each of us has a choice to make on the next trip to the local supermarket. We can continue to subsidize the inhumane and unsanitary conditions hidden by the meat industry and condemned by the World Health Organization. Or, we can elect a wholesome nonviolent diet of vegetables, fruits, and grains recommended by leading health authorities. Sincerely, Brian Williams Stonington, CT I can see Burger King from our new offices. –DR COOKIES Dear Dan, I have read the article about Montauk’s Cookies in the March 23 issue, and there is something I’d like to add to your research. There is a cookie made in East Hampton under the name “COOKIE FRUIT.” I started the business as mail order but for lack of funds and a divorce I decided to stop making them. There was an article in The Star many years ago that read “is it a cookie or a fruit,” yes it is kind of confusing because who is going to use such a name for a cookie...a cookie filled with high quality fruit preserves. Juan Torres Amagansett Send over the cookies. –DR
Police Blotter Batman? Police were called in East Hampton after somebody was spotted on the roof of a pharmacy, jumping around. When officers responded to the scene, the dark figure mysteriously was gone. Peter Beard Peter Beard’s property in Montauk was the subject of a police report last week when a woman walked on the property claiming to be an old friend of his. When the property manager told her that she had to leave, she did, but police were called because Beard has made it clear to the woman that he does not want her contacting him anymore. Granted, this really isn’t that exciting of a report, I just really like hearing the name Peter Beard in my head. It’s one of those names that sounds both manly and poetic at the same time. Like Max Powers. Offensive Sign Somebody called police to report an offensive sign during the Occupy Sag Harbor protests last week. Apparently, nobody likes it when you hold up a sign that offends people. Shelter Island Old Man McGumbus, 107 years old and former
World War II knife combat specialist, was arrested last week after Susie McBisquick, former Chief Executive of Marketing and Strategy for the Shelter Island Radio Station had him arrested. McBisquick, who has called police 246 times since January, claimed that McGumbus was harassing her while she was shopping for cat food for the 14 cats that live in her house. She claims that McGumbus sexually assaulted her while he was walking by her in the grocery store while buying his weekly supply of bacon and pork rinds. McGumbus denies the charges stating, “I wouldn’t touch that woman with a 10-foot pole, she’s like a walking pile of rotten cheese.” McGumbus was released on his own recognizance. High Speeding Idiot Police in Quogue were sent on a wild ride after a Calverton man led them on a high-speed chase that ultimately ended up with a collision into a tree. The man failed to pull over after he was caught speeding and led officers on not just a car chase, but also a foot chase. The man was arrested and charged with multiple offences. Tune into the next episode of “COPS” to see this one. –David Lion Rattiner
