SHAKESPEARE VS. THE SQUADRON Last Saturday night, the Village of Greenport stupidly booked their waterfront park to two different groups at the same time. They were Shakespeare in the Park and the Long Island Power Squadron.

Shakespeare had a stage and an audience watching. The Power Squadron had a tent, and, after a huge day boating, a crowd partying. Romeo declared his troth to Juliet. The tent emitted DJ music and slot machine chatter. Then the Nurse tells Juliet Romeo is dead.

The 64th annual Artists and Writers Charity Softball Game will be held on August 18 at Herrick Park in East Hampton. Featured players include Nancy Atlas, Ken Auletta, Alec Baldwin, Christie Brinkley, Josh Charles, Mark Feuerstein, Giada de Laurentiis, Jim Leyritz, James Lipton, Mike Lupica, Lawrence O’Donnell, George Stephanopoulos, Ali Wentworth and Mort Zuckerman. Batting practice starts at noon, and the game begins at 2 p.m. Bring the family! Hamptonites are divided on what to call the Hamptons’ latest, greatest power couple, Alec Baldwin and Hilaria Thomas. “Allaria”? “Hal”? (“Bald Tom” is completely off the table.) Decide for yourself – see photos of them on page 31. Staff has been hired for Chef Tom Colicchio’s soon-to-open Topping Rose House restaurant in Bridgehampton. Fans are poised to celebrate the opening of his latest eatery, with his first hotel to follow. Veteran hotelier Jeff Morgan will serve as the property Tom Colicchio manager while Ty Kotz is on the scene as Chef De Cuisine. Gardener Jeff Negron is planting the first crop of greens and root vegetables on the site next week. Excitement mounts -- Topping Rose House is anticipated to be one of the best small luxury hotels in the country from day one. (See a related story on page 92.) And on the North Fork where Colicchio makes his home…Lieb Cellars has recently announced its partnership with Colicchio to create Craft by Lieb Cellars, Brut Blanc de Blancs. Colicchio and Greg Majors, Craft’s Beverage Director and Sommelier, have been looking for the right vineyard to make their private label sparkling. Lieb Cellars used the French Methode Champenoise, used in Champagne. The Craft sparkling has a large initial bouquet and a dry finish and is now sold at Craft restaurant, Lieb Cellars in Mattituck, and online at www.liebcellars.com USTA Serves, the National Charitable Foundation of the United States Tennis Association, is holding its firstever Pro-Am in the Hamptons, a two-day event to help fund college scholarships and program grants to communitybased tennis and education Mardy Fish programs throughout the country. “The Bridge Cocktail Reception” on (Continued on page 42)

“Along with the New York Subway System, Hamptons Subway is the only underground transit system in the State of New York.”

The H amptons Subway Newsletter By DAn rattiner

Week of August 18-24, 2012 Riders this past week: 17,411 Rider miles this past week: 179,314 DOWN IN THE TUBE Venus Williams was seen on the subway heading from Sag Harbor to Noyac. She was wearing really neat tennis wear. Someone said she was on her way to a party to launch her new clothing line. DELAY WEDNESDAY There was a long wait on Wednesday afternoon in Southampton when one of our subway trains failed to back up. The motorman, Ennis Ennison, who has been with us a long time and should have known better, tried to back up the train a short distance because he thought he had overshot the station. What he forgot is that four years ago, he had purposely detached the reverse gear on this particular train—we like for our motormen to have the same trains every day—so he could not back up. He had done that because the day before four years ago he had backed into a train behind him and said that would never, ever happen again. So now, when

he needed it, having forgotten that, he jammed it into reverse and stripped all the gears that make the train go both forward and backwards and so could not move. It took nearly two hours to get it all sorted out. Ennison is in the hospital, highly medicated to numb the effects of what is diagnosed as severe anguish with complications caused by a hairline fracture in his gear shifting arm. SAILOR AWARDS Shelter Island sailor Amanda Clark, who made the United States Olympic Team for two-person sailing, reached the finals in the Olympic competition in London but could not beat the New Zealanders. We will honor her with a trophy as the best sailor in the Hamptons. It is not well known but Clark did much of her training in the weight room at our Hampton Bays headquarters. Just pulled those sheets and ropes a little too hard, we guess.

Until then, if your old swipe card is down to zero, just tell the token clerk, pay her the $2 and she’ll let you hop over the turnstile during these next few days. GEORGICA STATION CLOSED As you may know, a new station was put in last spring at Georgica at the request of those living there. No one used it, however, it was just there and in fact those who requested it now posted guards so only people living in Georgica could use it but since none of them did, Commissioner Aspinall has now closed the ticket booth and the platform for “repairs.” It was considered by the ticket booth ladies to be the most lonely assignment. THE HORSE WALK As happens every summer in mid-August, the horses competing in the Hampton Classic Horse Show over Labor Day weekend are let off at our Westhampton Beach stop in the middle of the night and then trotted down the tracks while the subway system closes for maintenance for the night to the Bridgehampton station and the horse show grounds. The first few horses, from Kentucky, came through last Thursday night, much to the surprise of the maintenance crews, a week early. They are in a different time zone down there apparently. Anyway, the trot along went well and they did pick up after themselves. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE The annual report of the Subway System is out next week. As usual, however, it is only going to be presented to investors since the Hampton Subway is privately owned and nobody else is allowed to know what is going on.

Whale Of A Tale A large whale was discovered in Hampton Bays. The whale had washed ashore on the beach and was over 50 feet in length. Experts speculated that the whale died after running into a large ship. The whale was buried on the beach, where one day in the future, a dog will dig up one of the most impressive dog bones in the history of the world. Shelter Island The largest prostitution ring in Shelter Island’s history was broken up last week by private investigator Woody Herman, known as the Sherlock Holmes of the Hamptons. The investigation lead to the arrest of its leader, Old Man McGumbus, 109 years old, former World War II fighter pilot and founder of the Shelter Island Village and Town Improvement Association. Old Man McGumbus, who has been running the ring for the last 43 years, was using the Shelter Island Village and Town Improvement Association as a front to funnel in prostitutes from around the world, primarily from Japan and Germany. The ring has even lead to many marriages on Shelter Island, which explains the large half-German population there. Herman estimates that the ring has netted Old Man McGumbus $86 million. Old Man McGumbus was quick to point out that the Shelter Island Village and Town Improvement Association has been able to raise over $400 million for Shelter Island, and has paid for the conservation of thousands of acres and has renovated nearly every single building on Shelter Island except for the Shelter Island Department of Motor Vehicles. Herman speculates that the main reason that no money ever went to the SIDMV is because Old Man McGumbus’s ex-wife, Suzie McBisquick, is the Chief Management Officer of Forms there, and he apparently hates her. Thief! A man in Southampton reported that his private collection of medieval swords was stolen last week. The North Fork Several ducks holding up traffic along a major North Fork road soon lead to a seven hour jam that spread all the way to Orient Point. Racer A man in Bridgehampton crashed his car into a tree after attempting to provoke a Ferrari into a race with his Honda. Yeah, well, that sounds about right. Free Beer? A bar put a sign out that read “Free Beer, Topless Women and False Advertising.” Frequent calls were made to the bar saying that false advertising is illegal…and then they asked, “Are there really topless women?” D’oh! A man off the coast of Montauk needed to be towed in by Sea Tow after he ran out of gas. His 40 foot boat named “Cruisin’” may have to be renamed to “Embarassin’.”

Save Werewolf Path Southampton Trustees Plan to Officially Un-Name This Road August 20 By Dan Rattiner

ext Monday afternoon, August 20, the Southampton Town Trustees are going to vote on a resolution to erase the name of a road by the name of Werewolf Path in Noyac. I was heavily involved in the naming of this road. (Uh, I named it.) It’s on all the maps. It’s on my iPhone. It’s on Google. But now, the Trustees intend to do away with it. They WILL do away with it. But I intend to be up there on the front steps of Town Hall picketing and marching to prevent this from happening. I feel bad they no longer want the name I gave it. If you want to help, come up and march with me. Signs should read SAVE WEREWOLF PATH. We can have apple cider and reminisce about the good old days and the evil bureaucrats today who just want to get rid of anything that has charm. Here’s the story. In the late 1960s, I drew a map of the Hamptons that had on it the names of every road in the Hamptons. It was done longhand, with all the roads on it printed out personally by me in little letters with a pen. It took me three days, referring to other maps to get things right, to draw this map. While drawing it, I found that there were many dotted line dirt roads that were unnamed. I named them with cute and quaint names—Lois Lane, Uncle Ed’s Romp, Lost Cow’s Journey etc. Perhaps one of them would stick and become a real name. Wouldn’t that be something? When I finished drawing this map, I sold ads around the border to merchants and then

printed 20,000 copies and gave them away free to tourists. The road I named Werewolf Path soon appeared on other roadmaps. No others did. But I was delighted even with just this one. It leads west off Noyac Path a quarter of a mile and then dead ends. I wrote the story about naming Werewolf Path in my new memoir STILL IN THE HAMPTONS and last Saturday at 11 a.m., after advertising my performance, went up to it to read the chapter aloud to anyone who wanted to hear it. But when I got there, I found a street sign on the corner where Werewolf Path would be that read Old Sag Harbor Road. I read the chapter anyway—it described how I had drawn this map and named this road and life was good and those were the days—but where the heck was Werewolf Path? Two days later, Monday, I called the Town Building Department and made inquiries about Werewolf Path. Indeed, the highway department inspector knew about it. But he said it was under the jurisdiction and ownership of the Town of Southampton Trustees, who had offices in another part of the building. And so I then spoke to Trustee Fred Havemeyer. He knew about it too and wanted to know why I called about it. I told him I wondered how it got its name. “I will have to look into it,” Havemeyer said. “I think it goes way back to the early settlement days. Lots of roads go back to then. We call them legendary roads rather than named roads. But I’d have to look it up.” (Cont’d on next page)

An hour later, he called back. He was unable to find the file on Werewolf Path. He would have to dig deeper, perhaps into the early records of the town to see what he could see. At this point, I felt sorry for Mr. Havemeyer, who is somebody I know and like. I told him he shouldn’t have to go through all that trouble. I then made an absolutely disastrous mistake. I told him that it was me who had named the road, and I told him the whole story about 1969, about the map, the dotted lines, everything. He said he still wanted to look into it. It was their road. Just because I put that name on the map doesn’t explain how it came to be accepted by the town. “It’s not necessary,” I said. I was trying to hold him off. An hour later he called back again to say he had found the answer. “I called Squires and Holden, the longtime surveyors for the town. I spoke to Bob Smith there and he told me that he spoke to John Holden who is now retired and that he remembered way back then you had just for fun named a lot of roads with your map and one was Werewolf Path. He liked the name, so they started using it on surveys.” “Good,” I said. “Well,” Havemeyer said, “I think this now has to be straightened out. So on Monday, August 20, I am going to make a proposal that from now on this road be officially called…” “Werewolf Path?” “Old Sag Harbor Road.”

Cheers for the Ferry Broccoli, Hog Rendering Factories and the Sag Harbor Microscope By Dan Rattiner

n various villages out here over the years, public spirited citizens groups have from time to time appeared to keep an eye on things. Back in the 1890s, the Ladies Village Improvement Society was formed in East Hampton to fight for temperance and sobriety. They’d escort drunks home, send shabbily dressed visitors out of town, they’d take care of seeing to it that Main Street was clean and beautiful, and that people weren’t eating ice cream on the street. (They’d admonish them if they did.)

The LVIS remained a serious moral force in that town for more than a century. I recall a big fight they had with a merchant in town 30 years ago when the merchant put up a giant wall poster just inside the front door of his shop showing a full size, full frontal naked obese woman staring out at you. This was meant to go on your refrigerator door at home to remind you of what could happen to you if you opened it too often. The store was four doors down from the movie theatre. The LVIS said children should not have to see this. It went to court. In the end, the LVIS won that battle. But it was by default. In mid-battle, the merchant took sick

and died. The LVIS doesn’t take on ethical or moral issues as much today, but it is still quite active. We owe our big elm trees and other street furniture to the efforts of the LVIS. Another watchdog public citizen’s group today is the one in Montauk. Called the Montauk Citizen’s Advisory Committee, they are largely a gadfly to local government, expressing strong opinions about what they think is wrong and making suggestions about what they think is right. Two months ago, they took on a plan by the Supervisor Bill Wilkinson to have a WELCOME TO MONTAUK (Cont’d on next page)

Record Traffic Clogs Roads in Recession? By Dan Rattiner

good and little known indicator of activity in the Hamptons economy is at East Hampton’s Reutershan Parking Lot directly behind the stores on Main Street in that town. At the entrance to this lot (and all other public lots downtown) you have to stop your car and press a button to get a free parking ticket. The ticket is date and time stamped. There’s twohour parking in these lots. A good indicator of economic activity here is in 9:44 the AM number Dan's Banner Clocks_Layout 1 5/18/12 Page 1 of

these parking tickets issued during the month compared to the same month prior year. The numbers for July are now in, and they have shot through the roof. For July 2012, 134,266 motorists punched the button to get a ticket. This compares to 116,483 for July 2011, an increase of nearly 20%. It’s also the most number of motorists who have gotten these tickets in any July since the machines were installed 13 years ago. Other than this July’s abnormality, the ticket totals have generally followed the national

economy. They were about 70,000 in 2001 and they rose to a high of 132,000 in July of 2005. They then stayed pretty steady through 2007 (the total was 129,383 that July) and then, as the recession took hold, dropped down. During the recession years of 2008 to 2011, the number held steady at around 116,000, then, this year, suddenly took off with this July’s total erasing the record set in 2005. What is going on? As far as all traffic in the Hamptons goes, this bellwether measurement (Cont’d on page 40) certainly reflects what’s

Ferry (Continued from previous page) sign at the entrance to the village with his name on it. The citizen’s group did not want the Supervisor to have his name there. In the end, they lost, but they won, sort of. The sign is up and the Supervisor’s name is there, but it is on a board that is screwed onto the sign, a testament to the unknowables of life and the inevitability that when the Supe goes out of office, his name is removed. Still another watchdog group is Save Sag Harbor. Save Sag Harbor issues emails almost every week about even the slightest new thing that might be about to happen in that town.

Rian White’s Work of Art

Drip Painting

Throw Buckets of Paint at My House in Springs, Please By david lion Rattiner

hree years ago, on a snowy day in January, I was at Rian White’s house in Springs asking him why he was so mad at the Town of East Hampton. White is a well known character in Springs and it’s for one reason only: he HATES the code enforcement in East Hampton. White owns a house in Springs near Maidstone Beach, but according to him he’s a starving artist, and his home is his castle, as far as he’s concerned. He should be able to do what he wants with his house. At the time White was being fined by the

Town for having too much garbage piled up in his backyard. According to White, it was not garbage in his backyard, it was “art” and he would not remove anything. He also said that the “art” did not really bother his neighbors and that he gets along “famously” with them. While at White’s house, I could sense his passion, he strongly felt his constitutional rights were being violated, he was feeling bullied by the Town, and it was clear to me back then that this was his personal war against the Town and he wasn’t giving in. I filmed his entire house and backyard, which was scattered with various items that were clearly just trash, but had been

rearranged in ways that could be argued as representing art. For example, I recall laughing at a 1938 General Electric refrigerator that was standing in the middle of his yard and rusting away, with a wooden chair placed on top in an arguably artistic way, surrounded by rusted-out pitch forks standing upside down that had been dug into the ground. There were also aged, rusting, clearly unusable bicycles scattered in the yard, and yes, it was all in disarray. In the back of the yard was a giant statue of a hot dog that you might see outside of a hot dog stand, “Oh that…that’s been exonerated from everything else. According (Cont’d on next page)

The Hamptons Needs Its Own Special Cocktail By mr. sneiv

he Hamptons can never be recognized as a serious challenger for elite standing among other well-recognized geographic regions until such time that it can demonstrate that it has its very own signature cocktail. Why is it that just about anywhere outside our island paradise, you can walk into a bar or restaurant and order a whiskey, sweet vermouth and bitters and they will respond, “One Manhattan Cocktail Coming Up.” That is why Manhattan is so prominent in

the eyes of the world…because they have their own signature cocktail. Around this time, many readers are probably thinking, “Sneiv forgot about the Long Island Ice Tea Cocktail.” In fact, the Long Island Iced Tea Cocktail isn’t from New York at all. It first surfaced in the 1920’s in a community called Long Island in Kingsport, Tennessee. The inventor was a man who was known as “Old Man Bishop.” He passed the recipe on to his son Ransom, who perfected the drink in the 1940’s.

Many restaurants and bars in the Hamptons have created their own versions of what they deem to be a signature cocktail, but their exposure is usually limited to their patrons and there is no recognized authority having granted status to The Hamptons Official Signature Drink. We really need to take a close look at this issue. We can’t rely on the politicians to solve the problem. Centuries have passed and still no signature cocktail. Perhaps they think it is not important that we be recognized in this (Cont’d on page 54) way. I beg to differ. The

Drip (Continued from previous page) backyard, then sent him a bill for the work the crew did. Needless to say, White is still looking to make his point, and three years later, he has done it yet again, drawing the attention of the national press by posting a sign out in front of his house, inviting the public to throw paint at it. Yes, this is true. The sign literally says, “Help paint a starving artists home. Throw a pint” and passersby have done just that. His home is splattered with a paint job that looks like Jackson Pollock came back from the dead, got drunk and then declared to the world, “I shall paint a house and I shall do it my way!” There is yellow splatter, there is white splatter, there are streaks of paint running over his entire house, including his windows. The director of code enforcement for East Hampton got word of the paint job, and sent a notice of violation to White for breaking Town code violations. It’s written in the law that a homeowner can’t do something like this, but clearly, White doesn’t really agree with those laws. Once again, because of White’s commitment to his belief that he should be allowed to do to his property what he wishes for the sake of art, he has brought controversy. On the one hand, the house looks terrible. But from another person’s perspective, you could find an argument that it looks kinda cool. I’ve been down by this house since it has been “painted,” although I didn’t see White anywhere. Personally, I have to say, it looks absurd, but that’s just me. I got to thinking about freedom and America the entire time I looked at this house. I felt emotional when I looked at it, I felt thoughtful. Am I admitting to myself that this could be a form of art? Is this a case where people just personally don’t like each other? If everybody just said, “go ahead, Mr. White, have it your way,” would White decide to paint it one color? And then I got to thinking about illegal immigrants, and the lack of code enforcement on homes that are overcrowded, and the struggle with that. What can the Town really do? They just have to try and do the best they can. You can’t punish people who don’t have much and want to live a certain way, because what can you really do but send them fines that they can’t pay? But when it’s done on purpose, to make a point as White is doing, what’s the next step? Is it worth time and money to keep the war going? Or would a little peace between the two do more good? It’s not black and white. It’s the grey area where all of us have to live, but unfortunately, nobody wants to admit it. I also got to thinking about WHY White did this. He did it because somebody complained the old paint job on his house was not good enough for them and that the paint on his house was chipping away. Is this really such a big deal that he has to be singled out? How many homes in Springs look 10 times worse than his did before he splattered it with paint? I will say that his yard is absolutely, completely cleaned up, and that there are plenty of other places that are in much worse shape. David Salafia/Flickr

to the Town, that’s art.” I sort of admired his battle—the guy should be allowed to do what he wants in his own backyard—but I also couldn’t help but side with the Town on the issue personally. I just didn’t like the way the Town was going about it. A little honey goes a long way with this type of thing, I thought; if they were nice about it, I’d bet that he’d move it, but it was already way past that point. He flat out just didn’t want to be told what to do and felt strongly about it, and like a pit bull wasn’t giving an inch. It got to the point where the Town hired a crew of people to show up at his house and throw out things in his

Traffic (Continued from page 35) happening. The roads are packed. There are long tie-ups. Last Wednesday (this was not the day County Road 39 was closed), I drove back from the Dan’s Papers offices in Southampton at about five in the afternoon following Route 27 eastbound to East Hampton and can report to you that westbound traffic was, without exception, bumper to bumper all the way from County Road 39 and North Main Street in Southampton to the Montauk Highway and Daniel’s Hole Road in East Hampton, three villages and 10 miles away. There have been increases in the number of accidents and reported deaths this year. Between 2009 and 2011 the number of fatalities on our roads totaled five in East Hampton Town, according to the Chief of Police there.

This year there have been six already. Similar jumps in fatalities are reported in Southampton Town, where the total for the first half of this year is way ahead of last year. Our narrow and crooked roads are not made to adequately handle traffic such as this. People get crazy. They take chances. Car crashes are on the increase too. But now the question is—who are these motorists? It’s been reported by most real estate brokers in our area that although the sales of expensive mansions seems to be picking up, the number rented earlier this spring for the summer season of 2012 was a disaster. People who own homes to live in would not notice this. But people who own homes as speculators to rent found few takers. As a result the houses

lay empty. So there’s been a great temptation to rent them out not for the summer or for a month, but just for three nights or so (as party houses). So for example, an up island high school senior class of 100 kids can have a three-day blast in them, as was reported a few weeks ago. It’s also not the local people who are crowding our highways. Indeed, with prices for real estate a bit on the upswing, the trend of having fewer and fewer of them continues, since the locals can simply not afford the prices. And it’s not the immigrants. If anything, the swell of immigrants into our community willing to work for low pay peaked more than a year ago as the economy slackened. And it’s not the wealthy Europeans. We’ve for the past 10 years had a goodly share of these, as the euro has strengthened and coming to the Hamptons, from their perspective, looks like a bargain. Now, however, Europe is in trouble. People there are worried. And, although there are no statistics to support any of this, it seems there are far fewer wealthy people here speaking Italian or French or even Russian these days. So, if it is not any of the above, who is it that is crowding into the Hamptons to cause this big influx of traffic and crowds? There is only one other group this could be: tourists and day trippers. I submit that what we are witnessing is a mass influx of people from western Long Island, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, New Jersey and the less affluent sections of Manhattan who are flooding into the Hamptons to see what it is all about. They stay for a day, or for a weekend. Many of them, particularly the young, try to dress as Hamptonites would—you see women with white pants, white dresses and blouses, sunglasses and floppy hats, on the men, some bling and three day growth of beards. So they “pass.” They are in disguise. I don’t think this is cause for alarm. For one thing, whoever comes here has every right to do so, for a day, a week or a summer. We don’t have a gate at the Shinnecock Canal we can close when we are “full.” For another thing, I think that in this terrible recession we are going through, a little unexpected vigor that this influx brings can be considered a positive result. Furthermore, speaking as someone who is 72 and who is now sometimes viewing all the clubs filled with young people out here with alarm, I vividly recall when I was young doing the very same thing these kids are doing now. The fashions were different, the names were different, but heck we all went out and partied. And we all were pretty broke. (I live in East Hampton today, but in my teenage years I lived in Montauk and remember those good times. One guy I knew back then was Dick White, now a respected Montauk elder. We sometimes went to the same dives—the Blue Marlin, the Surf and Sand, the Manor, the Lakeside—and since he is still in Montauk, I called him and asked him about this new influx of young people taking over a lot of the old tourist haunts in town. Is it something to worry about? It’s just like what we did, he said. So, uh, no worries, dude.) I think this exercise in parsing the shifting situation of the Hamptons (Continued on page 56)

3,427 Pounds The Biggest Shark Ever Caught on Rod and Reel in Montauk By Dan Rattiner

ontauk is the fishing capital of the world, and though it holds more world fishing records than any other port, that is not the only reason for its fame. It’s fame is also based on the fact that in 1986, a man named Captain Frank Mundus brought in the largest fish ever caught by rod and reel. The record Captain Mundus was aiming to beat was held by a fishermen in South Australia who reeled in a 2,664 pound killer white shark on April 21, 1959. Killer sharks are thought to be the largest fish it’s possible to catch on rod and reel. Whales are larger. But no whale is going to be killed by a hook and line. It was around 1951 that Mundus, his wife and fishing boat Cricket II moved to Montauk pursue shark fishing. Mundus bought a boat slip in Montauk Harbor. He put a giant sign high in the

air over the slip which read MONSTER FISHING. For years and years, he chartered out his boat to sport fishermen almost every day during the fishing season just before dawn looking for the great white. What the rest of this story is about is the day in 1986 he found that fish and broke that record. And it is also about how something I wrote in Dan’s Papers that week caused its disqualification from the record books. I found this out four days ago researching this story. And I was shocked by it. I had no idea that what I wrote in Dan’s Papers that week had been the cause. Nobody ever blamed me for it. No one even told me about it, not even Frank, who I knew until the year he died in 2008. Frank always said he was denied the record by the International Game Fish Association on a technicality. He never said who was to blame. He certainly never said I was to blame. I had

only written what he had told me. In early August 1986, Captain Mundus piloted his Cricket II charter boat 30 miles to the south of Montauk. Aboard were three men who had chartered the ship. They were looking for shark of course, but not any killer Great White. Killer Great Whites are very rarely seen. There are sharks that weigh in the hundreds of pounds all over the place out there. The men fished all night way off shore, and the next day were heading back to Montauk, when, about halfway back they came upon a giant dead whale floating in the sea, which Mundus knew would attract Great Whites. Near by to the dead whale was another charter boat from Montauk called the Fish On, captained by Donnie Braddick. Captain Mundus and Braddick motored over to get close enough to discuss things. These are the great (Continued on page 44)

Wealthy Will Spend Fortune to Stop Erosion By alexandra andreassen

hen people think of the East End, one of the first things that come to mind are the beaches. We are home to some of the most beautiful beaches on earth—just ask Dr. Beach—and they are an integral part of life in the Hamptons. Over time, however, erosion has the ability to destroy everything that we love so much about these slices of heaven. Beachfront homeowners in Bridgehampton and Sagaponack have seriously considered this threat, and members of these communities’ Erosion Control Districts (ECDs) are currently spearheading an effort to restore their sections of the beaches using a sand dredging method. A public informational session at the Southampton

Town Hall on Friday, August 10 at 4 p.m., and a formal town public hearing on Friday, August 17 at 4 p.m., are the next steps toward their goal of combatting erosion on the beaches in their districts. The Town of Southampton needs to approve the tax increase to fund the project for it to go forward. Starting from the beginning: homeowners, in conjunction with the Town, formed the Bridgehampton and Sagaponack ECDs in the summer of 2010 because of the significant erosion that has occurred to the beaches over time. The Bridgehampton ECD encompasses 15,480 lineal feet of beach frontage from the Town-owned Flying Point Beach parking lot to Sagg Pond, and represents 73 homeowners. Similarly, the Sagaponack ECD encompasses

13,984 lineal feet of beach frontage from Sagg Pond to the East Hampton town line, and represents 52 homeowners. Both of these ECDs have been negatively impacted by erosion caused by the East Hampton Groins and Georgica Pond. “There has been a lot of erosion during the last 20-30 years,” said Jeff Lignelli of the Bridgehampton ECD. “We can either be reactive and wait for a disaster and then figure out what to do, or we can be proactive.” To determine whether a beach erosion project was necessary, they hired national experts led by Dr. Tim Kana of Coastal Science & Engineering (CSE) to do a nine-month study. CSE teamed up with First Coastal, an environmental and marine construction firm based in Westhampton (Continued on page 50)

Shark (Continued from page 41) whites I’ve been looking for, Mundus said. I’d like to hook one. I’m not equipped for giant shark, Braddick told him. I am, Mundus said. As Mundus recounted, the fishermen aboard his boat were asked if they’d like to stay and try to catch one of the man eaters. All the fishermen on Mundus’ boat said they’d like to go back to shore so Mundus flagged down a private boat to take them home. Captain Braddick asked his fishermen, but they wanted to go home too. Captain Braddick motored them back to shore. And then he and his mate came back to the dead whale—it was four hours later—and Mundus and Braddick and their two mates lashed their two boats

together to make the effort. It was two in the afternoon. Mundus told me later what happened next and that is what I put in my article in the newspaper when I met him back on shore the next morning. The article was called THE FULL STORY. I took pictures of this Great White, dead, all 17 feet of him, lying on the dock in Montauk. And I wrote, among other things, the following sentences. “The monster took the hook around 4:30 in the afternoon with Mundus in the chair. Mundus immediately got up, Braddick sat down and the fight was on.” Mundus also told me he expected the fight might last eight-plus hours and at 60 years of age, he was uncertain he could last that long taking the fish alone. He knew the IGFA needed

18205

to have one fish, one fisherman and a fishing line appropriate for the fight. So that’s why he turned the seat over to Braddick. Braddick fought the beast with 150 pound test line. As the fight proceeded, with Braddick using 150 pound test line, reeling the fish in and then letting him out, Mundus called on the ship to shore to Carl Darenberg, Jr. at the Montauk Marine Basin, the largest fishing station in Montauk and the only one possessing a giant crane. “We have a Great White shark that we’re estimating is over 2,000 pounds,” Mundus told him. “We are getting our gear together now and working him. How late will you stay open?” Carl said he’d wait up all night if necessary. Keep him informed. As the sun set, the Great White continued to fight. The men brought the fish alongside and tied ropes around him, as he thrashed about. After another hour, the thrashing stopped. They had done it. This was going to be very near the world record. In fact, Mundus thought, this was well over 3,000 pounds. Twenty years earlier, Mundus had gone out with harpoons and rifles and killed a Great White weighing about that. It had taken him 12 hours to tow in with the shark alongside. Was this one even larger than that one? He remembered how far that earlier fish’s tail stuck out the back of the Cricket II after he lashed it to the side. And so, now, after untying the Fish On and having the mates take her in, Mundus and Braddick began their long slow journey home. Montauk was then and is today a fishing town. Carl Darenberg, Jr. did not keep what he had heard about over the ship to shore to himself. People began to gather out at the dock where the winch was. And Darenberg would give updates. They were now 20 miles out, now 15. The Cricket II came through the jetties at about five knots at 11:30 p.m. More than a thousand people from the town were out at the dock by that time and, as searchlights played along the side of the Cricket II, they could hardly believe their eyes. The fish was creamy white. It’s mouth hung open, its tongue hanging out, its sharp jagged teeth exposed. Of course, the first order of business would be to weigh the shark. Spotlights and car headlights were beamed out to the scene. The crowd was kept back. The steel crane was extended out over the boat and steel cable wrapped around the fish. Then the crane began to lift it. The crowd began to cheer the Marine Basin. “Go, go, go,” they shouted. But the fish, lifted by its tail to as high as the boom would go, still left the head end of the fish underwater. They eventually decided to use a cargo net to lift the fish, the sort you might use to bring boxes from a dock aboard a freighter. Just after midnight, it was placed under the fish and the crane, using four heavy ropes attached to each of the corners of the net, brought it up. What an incredible sight it was. It was swung over to a scale and set down. The scale went up to its maximum of 3,500 pounds. It hovered at that. This fish, along with its 73 pound cargo net, weighed almost exactly that. So the fish weight was calculated as 3,500 pounds minus 73, or 3,427 pounds—breaking the old record by nearly half again. My interview with (Continued on page 56)

Schneiderman may be undecided about running in 2013, but he has certainly given it some serious thought. Why would he take on such a task, in light of the quagmire of many Town departments, the perception that the town caters to special interest groups and the general unrest in East Hampton? Why bother? Schneiderman appreciates the thought and pleasantly and clearly explains his feeling. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sure, many would shy away, but I have gotten incredible overwhelming positive feedback from the peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;people who donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like the tone at Town Hall. The vitriol has gotten to such a high level, with comments on sites such as Patch and Facebook, anonymous bloggers are slamming local government and each other.â&#x20AC;? It can get so vicious, one wonders sometimes if we all live in the same town. Schneiderman agrees that we need to get back some sense of respect and decorum. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have lost the balance,â&#x20AC;? he goes on to say, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What will become of our Town?â&#x20AC;? Many, this summer especially, ponder exactly that question. In Montauk it is an especially critical issue, as the hamlet has been the subject of much discourse and change. Some say change for the better, others disagree and fear Montauk has been taken over. Montauk is the place Schneiderman calls home, and he is known quite fondly by locals. What is his take on the scene as it stands? He speaks of balance again. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Look, some areas are predominantly residential. Others areas, commercial. And then there are those neighborhoods that are a combination. This is what needs to be figured out. The rules regarding all have to be considered.â&#x20AC;? Schneiderman talks about the uniqueness of a town like Montauk. I remind him many people consider it â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Hamptons.â&#x20AC;? And that is not, of course, how locals see themselves or their town. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right, there is a disparity between rich and poor here. We have great beauty and wealth. And we have people living in poverty and in need of social help. People living in a 20- bedroom house and 20 people living in a two-bedroom house.â&#x20AC;? Schneiderman also says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yes, people and

By jennifer devito

avid Plotkin made a promise to his son, and he was determined to keep it. Max was four at the time and had just been diagnosed with a rare B-Cell Lymphoma in the bone of his right arm that then spread to his left knee. As his parents, David and Annemarie Plotkin, were doing research on the disease, they were shocked to discover that research into pediatric cancer is the most underfunded of all cancer research, while at the same time cancer is the number one cause of death among children. David decided at that moment that he wanted to dedicate a substantial part of his life to raising money for research and helping low income families that are struggling with a similar issue that his family was. And The Max Cure Foundation was born. David understood the basics of foundations, and knew that big ones such as Livestrong and Susan G. Komen are able to raise a lot of money because they inspire people and get people involved. Livestrong has been able to spread their message using the yellow LIVESTRONG bracelets, and Susan G. Komen has been “turning America pink.” David wanted to take a similar approach, and adopted the lion, which they named Lion Max, as the logo for the organization. “We picked a lion because lions represent courage and perseverance, and Lion Max embraces the story of a little boy who overcame a huge obstacle.” The East End has shown amazing support

for the foundation over the past few years and every Max Cure Foundation event embraces the community and encourages everyone to come join. When Max was in the hospital in New York receiving treatment, David recalls his constant pleas to take him back into the Hamptons, to go to the beach, to get out of the city. “I truly feel that the Amagansett air played a big part in helping to heal Max,” he says. This year The Max Cure Foundation will be holding its 4th Annual Carnival on August 18 at the Ross School in East Hampton. Over the past three years, the carnival has brought in over a million dollars that the foundation has been able to contribute to research and those in need. David included his personal motto when asked about the price of each event: “Pediatric cancer does not discriminate, therefore we need to make our events affordable so that everyone can experience what The Max Cure Foundation is truly about.” The carnival has received tremendous support each year, including support from celebrities such as Christie Brinkley, Aida Turturro, John Franco and Kelly Rutherford. Many of Max’s friends plan their summer vacations around the carnival so that they can be sure to be there. It is truly a special event to be a part of, and the Plotkins cannot thank enough those who come and participate for what they have done for the foundation. Some of David’s favorite memories from past carnivals include children climbing up the mechanical bull, throwing their hands in the air, and screaming, “Roar for

the Cure!” which is The Max Cure Foundation motto. His youngest son, Alexander, was there, standing in front of the squirt gun trailer for over an hour and finally walking away with an over-sized Angry Bird stuffed animal, with a huge smile on his face. It is not only the big things that the foundation’s doing, but the small things as well that make it all worth it. The Plotkins are looking forward to the release of Henry & Me, an animated film based on the story of a little boy with cancer. The movie is produced by David himself and John Franco is the executive producer. It features the voices of Richard Gere, Cyndi Lauper, Alex Rodriguez and C.C. Sabathia. David is sure that The Max Cure Foundation will benefit from the movie, and he is excited to see its reception. 4th Annual Max Cure Carnival, August 18, noon to 4 p.m., The Ross School, 18 Goodfriend Drive (off Route 114), East Hampton, presented by Town.

Erosion (Continued from page 41) Beach. “The result of that analysis was that Sagaponack beach is losing about 55,000 cubic yards per year, and Bridgehampton is losing about 50,000 cubic yards per year,” stated Aram Terchunian of First Coastal. “Just to give you a point of reference, 65,000 cubic yards is about 3,200 dump truck loads.” Combined, more than 6,000 dump truck loads of sand are lost per year. The erosion rate is estimated to be around three cubic yards per lineal foot of shoreline per year.

long with these organizations, the ECDs have been working together to develop a collective beach nourishment plan. Beach restoration or beach nourishment is an effective process in which they find a compatible source of sand in the ocean floor, and then pump that sand up with a dredge to spread it on the beach. According to Terchunian, this technique is commonly used throughout the country, as some of the most notable beaches in America are rebuilt beaches. Most recently in our area, Fire Island successfully used this technique in 2009. “They look and feel and act exactly like a natural beach because we’re mimicking nature,” Terchunian explained. This is all done based on an understanding of how much sand is being lost, and where it is being lost. Lignelli said that this would take care of the next 20 years of erosion. In planning for this process, one of the

biggest considerations is how to fund it. The organizers have proposed an increase in taxes for the people who own the beaches. “Everyone essentially pays for the amount of footage of the beach that they have,” Lignelli noted. Therefore, “the individual homeowners are paying 85-90% of the project and the Town pays for 10% of the project” because that is how much of the beach that these parties own. In these ECDs, the Town of Southampton owns beaches such as Sagg Main, Mecox Beach and Flying Point Beach, among others. This means that a taxpayer who owns a home worth $500,000 in Southampton Town will pay, according to the Town Supervisor’s office, $2.72 per year for 10 years.” Terchunian said that compared to similar erosion control projects, this is a common way to afford it. The estimated combined cost of the endeavor, which will widen the beach 50-60 feet seaward and strengthen the dunes, is $22-25 million.

oordinators met with the Army Corps of Engineers and Congressman Bishop, and learned that federal funding will not be available for these ECDs because of the U.S. budget deficit. Thus, the homeowners hope to finance the project over a 10-year bond maturity. The President of the Fire Island Association was quoted in a July 20, 2012 Presentation of Beach Nourishment Project to the Southampton Town Board as stating, “One of the things we have to be aware of is we can’t wait for the government

to take care of it. If we want something done, we have to do it ourselves.”

t is important to address erosion problems before they get any worse and before a natural disaster does even more damage. Lignelli cited the Town’s repair of the dunes and parking lot at Mecox Beach this past winter, costing them $100,000. According to the presentation, “The dune was one storm away from the ocean washing over into the parking lot.” This will be a recurring problem until a large-scale nourishment project like this one is completed. Moreover, completing this beach nourishment project would make them “engineered beaches” under FEMA guidelines. This is important because if a federally declared emergency storm or disaster occurs, they are eligible for FEMA reimbursement. There have been four such instances in the past six years, but the area can only receive funding if it is under an ECD. At the upcoming meetings, the details relating to the project will be discussed, as well as any questions people have. If everything stays on track, work is slated to begin January 2013 and run until April 2013. “One of the great things about the Hamptons is that it has some of the best beaches in the world, and this will be a way to preserve and enhance the Hamptons having the best beaches in the world,” Lignelli stated. “Everyone in the town will benefit having wider and stronger beaches in the long run.”

GUEST ESSAY

My Seal By morleen novitt

t was a cold afternoon in April. The last few days of my spring vacation were disappearing. We had rented an oceanfront house in Amagansett. This big, weathered house was supposed to provide a little getaway for my husband Don and me. I felt restless as I stood on the deck looking at the sea. The houses on either side were unoccupied. Their big windows provided a view nobody observed. The sky was a steely grey and the water left whiskers of spray as the waves crashed onto the beach in front of our house. I was thinking about the office. It had come as a tremendous shock to me to discover that there were people there who didn’t like me. And they were weaving webs of intrigue to get me out. My agency had merged with another. Suddenly I had gone from winning every conceivable award for creativity that my former (and now defunct) company gave out to being an old hack in a matter of months. I was superfluous. Driftwood or rather dead wood that needed to be removed. This was a new experience for me and I didn’t really feel equipped to handle these entanglements. I just wanted to write ads. My husband returned from his morning walk. His hair was slick with the mist from the air. He pointed towards the west and said: “I think there’s a seal stranded on the beach.” My heart started to pound and I ran to get the binoculars. I could see it, a blob of speckled brown and tan, white and black lying in a rut made by some large tires. I hurried down to look at the little animal. There was this poor seal, all wrapped up in some sort of fishing Morleen Novitt retired after a long career in advertising. She is currently working on a collection of stories.

net that had somehow married itself to a thick rope. The distressed creature was a harbor seal about three and half feet long, silently but frantically whipping its neck about, exhausting itself, trying to get free. Though it made no sound, I felt I could hear it scream. It looked so sad. So scared. Its huge black eyes gazed into mine. As if it was pleading with me for help. But for all I knew, the animal was terrified of me. Perhaps I was causing it more stress. I clumsily raced back to the house. “Don,” I shouted to my husband. “It’s a little harbor seal. Oh my God, it is just wriggling around. I am going to call somebody.” I went to telephone Okeanos, the marine animal rescue organization I had often read about. This wasn’t as simple as it sounds. I grew hysterical with frustration. After getting a few different numbers—worthless, unless I wanted to visit an aquarium—I reached a promising recording requesting that I press “2” because this call was about a stranded seal, whale, sea turtle, dolphin or porpoise. I spoke to the kind, patient marine biologist who stressed, “Don’t touch the seal and above all, try to keep it from going back into the water. It’s likely it cannot swim in its condition. It could drown.” I gave the biologist directions to the beach in Amagansett and ran back to the imprisoned animal. By now, a small crowd had gathered. I didn’t like everyone gawking at the helpless creature. It seemed humiliating for it to have to be seen so compromised. I grew more and more panicky, frantic. I believed it was our collective fault that this poor seal was in trouble. It enraged me. Eventually a kind member of the Shore Patrol came, and he helped keep people and dogs (suddenly it was an AKC Convention) away. I could only imagine what the seal could be feeling as the dogs, now (Cont’d on next page)

Patrick McEnroe Tennis Legend

Parlaying success as a player into success as a commentator, author, captain and coach Cup until September 2010, ending his tenure as the longest-serving U.S. captain in history. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tennis has been great to me,â&#x20AC;? says McEnroe with understated nonchalance, perhaps a quality gleaned from years of successfully striving to make a name for himself in the tennis world despite constantly being viewed in the distinguished shadow, at least from a playing perspective, of older brother John. But Patrick McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playing days and the comparison that they draw to Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;both honed their skill at the Port Washington Tennis Academy up

s the proverbial â&#x20AC;&#x153;Renaissance manâ&#x20AC;? is concerned, someone who has devoted his life to a single sport does not usually typify the term. But tennis aficionado Patrick McEnroe has defied the conventional definition, parlaying success as a tennis player into success as tennis commentator, author, captain, coach, husband and father. Currently serving as the General Manager of USTA Player Development, McEnroe has stayed highly active in the tennis circuit since retiring from the professional playing level in 1998. The Sag Harbor summer resident works at the United States Tennis Association, fostering young tennis talent at an elite level, and he also serves as a tennis commentator for ESPN. McEnroe worked for CBS Sports from 1996-2008, in particular as a correspondent at the U.S. Open, and he released a book, Hardcourt Confidential: Tales from Twenty Years in the Pro Tennis Trenches, in 2010. But McEnroe, who as a player reached a career-high singles ranking of No. 28 in the world in 1995, attests that his greatest accomplishment came when the U.S. won the Davis Cup in 2007, ending Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12-year title drought in the international competition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Representing our country has been the highlight of my career,â&#x20AC;? says McEnroe, who also served as coach of the 2004 U.S. Olympic menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tennis team. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But in particularâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;winning the Davis Cup in 2007 when I was captain.â&#x20AC;? When McEnroe was named the 38th U.S. Davis Cup captain in 2000, the Americans hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t won the annual tennis competition, which pits countries against each other, since 1995. McEnroe was heavily lauded for his efforts at the Davis Cup helm, as numerous personalities in the tennis circuit noted McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to deftly navigate the personal and professional channels of captainship both on and off the court. Coupled with his hard work, persistence and blanket knowledge of the game, McEnroe was hailed as the crucial component to ultimately bringing the championship back to the U.S. (The U.S. team of Andy Roddick, James Blake, Bob Bryan and Mike Bryan defeated the stacked Russiansâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;coincidently the nation that the U.S. had bested in 1995.) Though the U.S. had a record 31 Davis Cup titles when McEnroe stepped into the leadership role, the decade-plus span between wins was the longest the team had ever gone without a championship. McEnroe stayed with the Davis

island, and the older McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success has, by default, begged scrutiny of Patrick McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s playâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;have taken on less significance, as Patrick McEnroe has handily established himself as a force in his numerous tennis-related pursuits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always been difficult to be Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s younger brother,â&#x20AC;? McEnroe admits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve worked hard and have gotten the best out of my ability. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had so many postplaying opportunities.â&#x20AC;? And, incidentally, were it not for Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mammoth success on the court, Patrick McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time in the playing circuit would not likely have come with a pervasive asterisk related to his family name. Born in Manhassett, Patrick McEnroe burst onto the junior scene in 1984 when he won the French Junior doubles and the USTA Boysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 18 National and Clay Court titles with partner (turned ESPN colleague) Luke Jensen. That year, McEnroe also made a mark on the professional circuit, as he teamed up with John, who is seven years his senior, to win the doubles title at Richmond, Va. McEnroe went on to play at Stanford University, becoming a three-time singles All American, as he lead the team to NCAA titles in 1986 and, as team captain, in 1988. He joined the professional tennis tour after graduating in 1988 and steadily rose through the ranks in both singles and doubles. Patrick McEnroe won 16 ATP doubles titlesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) is the governing body of the menâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s professional tennis circuitâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;including the 1989 French Open with partner Jim Grabb. He made a decisive name for himself on the singles circuit when he reached the semifinals in 1991 at the Chicago Openâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;he eventually fell to Johnâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and again at the 1991 Australian Open. McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s singles career reached a personal high in 1995 when he won his first singles title at the Sydney Outdoor Championships. As a doubles player, McEnroe also represented the U.S. in the Davis Cup in 1993, 1994 and 1996, where he went 3-1. Patrick McEnroeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work ethic and passion for the sport has propelled his professional career. But he is similarly committed to his personal life as a hands-on husband and dad, fostering his three daughtersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; passion for tennis while playing Mr. Mom roles. (He ran to a local CVS on a recent Saturday to pick up burn cream after a sâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;mores incident.) â&#x20AC;&#x153;I juggle it very delicately,â&#x20AC;? McEnroe notes of his work-life balance. McEnroe is married to singer and Broadway actress Melissa Errico, and the family works to accommodate both career and parenting (Contâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d on next page)

Who (Continued from previous page) duties, some of which they happily bring to the East End. Errico most recently sang in her first solo concert at Guild Hall on August 5, which McEnroe called a â&#x20AC;&#x153;huge success,â&#x20AC;? and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll return to Broadway in 2013 in the 1994 Tony Award-winner for best musical, Passion. The two are parents to 6-year-old Victoria Penny and twins Juliette Beatrice and Diana Katherine. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She (Victoria) plays tennis and loves it,â&#x20AC;? says McEnroe, referring to his eldest daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s introduction to the sport. His daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s involvement in tennis notwithstanding, McEnroe is well aware of the importance of player development in the U.S., particularly given the talent of players internationally. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m excited for the future of the sport in 10,

ÂŽ

20, 50 years,â&#x20AC;? he says. And, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passionate that his role as head of USTAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s player development will allow him to be a part of that future.

n part to promote his mission at USTA, McEnroe will be in the Hamptons next week to participate in the inaugural USTA Serves ProAm in the Hamptons. The event kicks off with a cocktail party at The Bridge on Wednesday, August 22, and it continues with a Pro-Am at the East Hampton Tennis Club on Thursday. In addition to McEnroe, the hosts of the event include tennis legends Chris Evert, Mardy Fish and Mary Carillo. The USTA Serves Pro-Am in the Hamptons has dual purposesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to raise awareness and funds for USTA Serves and for the USTAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

player development efforts. USTA Serves is the charitable foundation of the USTA, as it gives money to programs that work with underprivileged kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The event will appeal to people who have an interest in both facets of the USTA,â&#x20AC;? says McEnroe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It will be a great way to join forces and garner interest in both programs.â&#x20AC;? The Pro-Am will feature doubles round robin play, where donors are paired with prominent tennis professionals. â&#x20AC;&#x153;USTA Serves is looking for people to use tennis as a vehicle to be a champion of life in general,â&#x20AC;? says McEnroe. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our overall mission is to grow tennis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tennis is difficult, but very beneficial,â&#x20AC;? continues McEnroe. The Jack of all trades is a living testament to his words, as he references the professional and life skills that can be learned in the context of a tennis court.

o prove my point, last year when I was at the Kentucky Derby, everyone was drinking Mint Juleps. That is what you drink at the Derby. If you are on the Island of Maui, it is a Hawaiian Punch. How about a Bahama Breeze, a Cape Cod and an Alabama Slammer? There is also the Singapore Sling and the Mississippi Mudslide. Even Russia has the Russian Quaalude. Hamptonitesâ&#x20AC;Śthereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no need to fear because Mr. Sneiv is here! Over the last four weeks, I have been mixing, testing, evaluating, sampling formulating, and partaking, at my house, in an attempt to design a true Hamptons Signature Drink. The work has been brutal. I estimate I have consumed more than 100 liters of various types of alcohol in my pursuit of the goal. One night during the testing process, I grabbed the dog leash and was gone for over an hour before I realized I forgot to hook the other end up to the dog. When I got back to the house, Hercules was staring out the door with his sad puppy eyes in a state of disbelief. Finally, last Tuesday, at exactly 4:37 a.m. it all came together. It was a moment I will never forget. Now I know the euphoria George Lerner must have felt when he successfully invented Mr. Potato Head. The result of my efforts is a perfect blend of Crown Royal Whiskey, Orange Juice, Muddled Kiwi Renderings, a Splash of Soda, and a Squeeze of Lime. I have named it THE HAMPTONS CROWN. I believe the name carries a certain cache and also embodies the royal standing we deserve. After a few samplings I even came up with a slogan; Live and Drink like Royalty! Wear The Crownâ&#x20AC;ŚThe Hamptons Crown. With any luck, we may be able to roll out The Hamptons Crown as our very own signature drink in time for Labor Day. I should just be getting out of alcohol treatment around that time. Seems everyone, including Hercules, thinks I have been drinking too much lately.

DAN’S PAPERS

August 17, 2012 Page 55

By David lion Rattiner

I was feeling my Bonac roots on Sunday while hanging out at Alberts Landing beach. It’s been well over 10 years since I’ve ventured down there. When I was a kid, my entire life in the summer time was all about catching crabs by the pier. I had an ingenious system at that time that included using a rock to hack off mussels attached to other rocks, and then breaking them open and tying the mussels to a kite string. I’d then tie a rock to be used as a weight, and climb out onto the jetty and fish for crabs. Within a few minutes I’d catch a couple of them. There was a big trick to it, you had to slowly bring them up, if you went too fast, they’d figure out something was up. Nothing has really changed at Alberts. When I got there, sure enough, there were plenty of kids, all around 10 years old or so, looking to bring up a few crabs from the pier. However, there was one kid there with the same setup that I used to have, but he had a leg of chicken attached to the kite string. I didn’t know if this was genius or not because I’ve never done it that way, and I was really curious about his success with the chicken leg. It seemed like a good idea, but what if you lose it? I’d lose mussels off of my kite string all of

the time. I didn’t have the courage to go up to him and inquire. I’d probably terrify his parents, I thought. Who is that giant guy with the big tattoo on his arm that is talking to my kid? My girlfriend and I took a walk through Alberts and checked out the Osprey nest. We watched a sailing race that the Devon Yacht Club was hosting and I was telling her how I used to be a swim instructor there. “When I was 19 years old, this whole area was my entire world in the summertime. It was awesome working there, I’d literally lay out on that dock over there and throw rich people’s kids into the water half the day and get them to swim, and the other half of the day I’d read philosophy books and cheesy romance novels by Nicholas Sparks or action books by Michael Crichton, and then I’d go teach a private swim lesson at some mansion. It was great.” When I got home all I could think about was how stupid I was for not going back there and enjoying it more often. *** Have you heard about this whale that was found dead on the beach in Hampton Bays that was over 50 feet long? I couldn’t believe it when I saw it. The thing was enormous. All I could think about was that scene in Seinfeld where George gives the “The sea was angry that day my friends” speech. I read that the marine biologists there determined that the whale was killed after being struck by a large ship. Animals in the ocean really don’t have it easy at all. I

was thinking the other day while fishing with my friend Mike out on my sailboat. He caught a fish, and the hook was stuck deep inside its throat, and quite casually, we pulled this thing out of the water and beat it with a club, pulled the hook out of its face and left it to die. I did all of this, really not recognizing how horrible of a way it is to kill something. If fish were on land and you caught them like this, PETA would go crazy and you’d be locked up for being so sadistic. But fish, they really don’t yell or anything, and it’s like the most violent thing ever. It’s sad when you think about it. But they do taste damn good.

and the next. Finally the head was cut off and sent out to a taxidermist. The body also was gutted, Mundus would keep the backbone. And maybe the tail. And Mundus had another story to tell, the story about a phone call he got on Thursday. “I have been answering the phone all day,” he said. “As soon as I put it down it rings again. Then I get this call from a guy who said he wanted the carcass. I said to the guy ‘you mean you want the head for a mount?’ and the guy says ‘no, I want the whole fish.’

‘What you gonna do with the carcass’ I ask, and he says he has some chemicals to preserve it. He said he was from a lure company. He said he would give me $25,000 for it. I jumped in the truck and rushed down here and there was the head in one spot and the tail in another and nothing in between. So much for $25,000, easy come, easy go.” The record from South Australia remains to this day. So here it is 2012, and I am researching articles written about this extraordinary fish and I read a lot, even read THE WHOLE STORY, which I find in

Page 56 August 17, 2012

Mundus came on that Wednesday. Newspaper and TV people from all over the country were there. (A two minute clip by a TV newsman at News 55 is online and you can see the crowd and of course the fish, which, at one point, the newsman crouches down next to.) Mundus was asked why he had Braddick fight the fish. “I had to have an idiot in the chair. I ain’t going to handle that idiot stick. I’m no spring chicken.” He also said that as a charter fisherman, he was obliged to let others bring the fish in. “If I did fight the fish, it would look awfully shady. We invented the game.” He had indeed invented the game of shark fishing, charging $1000 a day or more to give thrills to enthusiastic visitors. The fish stayed on the dock all that day

And there it is. “Mundus immediately got up, Braddick sat down and the fight was on.” Here is what fishing writer Lou Russo recently wrote in his account about what I had written. “This (incident reported in Dan’s Papers) was the likely reason that the IGFA did not approve the record,” he wrote. “A record 547 kg shortfin mako catch by Jody Daniels on the Hustler captioned by Glen Hodson on March 2, 1990 was disqualified for the same reason.” I told this story to a friend this morning. “So you’re the guy who should kill himself?” was the reply. Well, yes. Montauk should have had one more, the very biggest one more world record. But it didn’t. I should have not written what I did. But then I just didn’t know better.

Traffic (Continued from page 40) has another purpose however. I think that in particular the Towns of Southampton and East Hampton, should confirm my appraisal and then look to see how to deal with this new situation. Are our laws adequate? Are our lawmakers up to looking at this? Is there something new we should be doing? Though we are a completely unique place, I suggest our towns investigate what other communities have done when the sands shift under them. We should also look at other communities that have maintained their way of life through it all, and we should look at the laws at other communities that are somewhat like ours. I would suggest that we consider what the rules are in Palm Beach, where outsiders are not given much of the piece of the pie. I think we should look at Hyannis, Massachusetts, where, other than the glitterati, the members of the different factions live in something like harmony, and I think we should look at complete successes, such as Newport, Rhode Island and at successes that have staggered during this recession, such as Cape May, New Jersey and perhaps complete failures, such as Asbury Park, New Jersey, which during the last 30 years was pretty much trashed. We are more historic and beautiful than almost any of these places. But we should be prepared to react to what we see happening and create the wisdom to know what to do about it.

Cover Artist: Walter Bernard By Marion Wolberg Weiss

his week’s cover artist for the annual “Artists and Writers Softball Game,” Walter Bernard, is a busy man. What’s especially salient, however, is the energy and commitment he applies to both his professional and personal lives. Not only is he a respected graphic designer, but he also has to be one of the best grandfathers on the planet. In fact, this interview took place while he was babysitting his six-year-old twin granddaughters. (Last year he published a book on their artwork called Let’s Go Painting. He may add to it this year.) In a nutshell, Bernard, like the famous battery, “just keeps going.” Q: You are so busy. How do you relax, get away from the stress of the job and New York? In other words, how do you “keep going?” A: As you know, every Wednesday I go to my painting class. We have had the group since 1954, started by David Levine (who has passed away) and Aaron Shikler. We just recently moved from Greene Street to W. 29th Street; it’s hard to get the same space that we had in SoHo. Then I also go out to lunch with my business partner, Milton Glaser, even though I see him every day. That’s where I complain about the political state of affairs and rail against abuses. I go to the gym every Tuesday and come out to Sag Harbor in the summer on Thursdays, for the weekends. My daughter and her family arrive on Fridays. Q: I might add that you have a home in

Bridgehampton where you spend the weekends during the rest of the year. Oh, and you play ball every Saturday, which is a cherished and long-standing ritual. Speaking of your daughter, I know your family members are just as busy. A: My son-in-law, Hugo Lindgren, is the editor of The New York Times Magazine. My daughter, Sarah, has a show, “Trending Now” on Yahoo. My wife, Bina, is writing a book about keeping secrets. Q: What about you? You didn’t mention your own recent professional activities. A: This year I designed a book, published by Lincoln Center, about James McMullan, who does theatrical posters. His latest poster is for the play, Other Desert Cities, on Broadway. Q: Tell us about your own illustration work for the softball game covers for Dan’s Papers.

Do you have a signature style? A: The last couple of years, the covers have involved watercolor. Q: This year, the cover is very different: Shakespeare and Picasso as players. I see the image as a satire somehow. Where did that idea come from? A: I remember seeing a photograph of two baseball players taken during the 1940s, Ted Williams and Joe DiMaggio. They were in a dugout holding their bats. It stuck with me. The face of Picasso is taken from one of his self portraits. And of course, the bats are connected to their profession: Shakespeare has quotes from his plays; Picasso’s has abstract designs. Q: While the cover is different, there are still things about the game that will be the same. A: Yes, we will still be selling posters of the cover, shirts and raffles. But this year, we will have children’s hats, donated food and ice cream for the first time. Also, there will be four charities instead of three that we will be donating money to: The Retreat; Phoenix Houses of Long Island; East Hampton Day Care Learning Center and East End Hospice. Q: Deb McEneaney shared that there will be $15,000- $20, 000 going to each charity. A: Next year it will be our 65th anniversary. That will certainly be a challenge for me with the cover. “The Artists and Writers Softball Game” will be on Aug. 18 at 2 p.m. at East Hampton’s Herrick Park.

Rules of Engagement, Part 2 By MATTHEW APFEL

In last week’s column, I outlined some protocols and rules to live by when using Twitter. I was inspired by the frenzy of outrage that consumed the digital universe after NBC tried to pretend that the London Olympics weren’t happening live. Indeed, the Olympic motto “Swifter, faster, stronger” was almost replaced by “Shorter, louder, Twitter.” This week, I’m expanding those rules to include other social media platforms: Facebook and LinkedIn. Here we go. Facebook Facebook is not a social network; it is the social network. Everyone has it, even my 78-year-old mother. For people under 25, it’s not just a site; it’s an operating system. They don’t use programs like email or word – they are connected to Facebook 24-7 and receive all of their information and content through it. So it’s only fitting that the Rules of Facebook are all about how to post updates. Rule #1: Be honest about yourself. Really. I know, social media makes it tempting to build up your profile and make all kinds of wacky statements about influences, likes, and preferences. The problem is, if you enter stuff like “I like bee-keeping, Goth metal music, and shoe cobbling”, you will get friend requests

from people who actually like bee-keeping, Goth metal music, and shoe cobbling. Facebook is a boomerang: whatever you throw out there, it comes back to you. With spam. Rule #2: Don’t post any photos before or after attending a high school or college reunion. It will only make you feel old. Enough said, let’s move on. Rule #3: Limit the graffiti. Think of the Facebook Wall as your bedroom or office – would you be happy if someone scribbled useless drivel all over it? Or would you prefer to have a nice Warhol or Renoir? Door #2, right? Which me reminds of another rule: Rule #4: No Comment. On Facebook, there are no limits to the amount of messages and comments you can make. But just because you can write something, this doesn’t mean you have to. There’s just not enough time in the day to comment on every photo, idea, and shared experience. If it’s not something that would merit a phone call or SMS message, then you should probably not make the comment. Rule #5: Like it or not. The “Like” button is the most confusing piece of internet currency in history. Every brand, friend and total stranger is trying to get you to like things, because they can sell ads against it. But if you like everything, you will throw off the Facebook algorithms and find yourself getting strange ads and friend requests. My advice: think before you like. Linked In LinkedIn fancies itself a social network for working people. And the company has done a

good job positioning the network as a grown up place to make meaningful career connections. Therein lies the rub. LinkedIn isn’t like Facebook; you’re not there to be goofy and maybe hook up with an old flame. There are real people checking out your profile, with real consequences. So here’s what to do: Rule #1: Don’t post ANYTHING while inebriated. Especially photos. It’s too easy to forget about them, and next thing you know, your boss finds out way more about you than you ever wanted them to learn. Luckily, the byzantine LinkedIn user interface makes it very tough to update your profile, so this should be an easy rule to follow. I actually think they did this on purpose just to keep you out of trouble. Rule #2: Don’t try to connect with someone you want to meet. LinkedIn isn’t a dating service. While it’s cool that Warren Buffett, Jack Welch and Mark Cuban all have accounts, none of them is going to fund your company based on a clever 300-character intro email. Side note: I’ve definitely noticed that West Coast people are far more aggressive in reaching out via LinkedIn. This is logical, as the West Coast gave birth to the social network craze (sorry, foursquare). But for me, it’s slightly off-putting to get a mail message from a total stranger who wants to talk business. So here’s Rule #3: Don’t send any LinkedIn connection emails until after you’ve physically met the person at least once. On the web, as in real life, it’s always better to look them in the eye.

This event, plus putting a stronger spring in Daddy’s Lazy Boy recliner so that when he sat up the chair shot him across the room, have led us to offer a new solution to your propensity for testing the performance limits of all things mechanical. We realize you must need better parents than us. We have burned your birth certificate and any official records of your existence. We are prepared to drop you off at the Social Services office so you can claim to be a homeless youth in need of a foster home. We wish your new parents all the best and we would love to hear from you in ten years or so. Other than these rules, we hope your children enjoy that remainder of your summer vacation. If you need us, we’ll be at The Dory with all the other parents.

Tips for Playing in the Wind environment.

Even the most uneducated golfer has heard the saying, “when it’s breezy swing easy.” Players at this year’s PGA Championship had plenty of opportunity to take advantage of this advice. The tournament was held at The Ocean Course located on the eastern-most end of Kiawah Island. The Ocean Course has more holes on the ocean than any other course in the United States. Ten holes are right along the Atlantic, while the remaining holes run parallel. The location allowed course architect Pete Dye to create a links environment similar to those in Scotland and Ireland. This combination has exposed the golf course to unpredictable and strong sea breezes, which will keep professionals guessing. This year’s winner, Rory McIlroy managed to control his golf ball despite these unpredictable gusts. Playing in the shifting winds at The Ocean Course requires a tremendous amount of imagination and manufacturing the curve and height of the golf ball in every direction. Players need to adapt their game to the windy conditions, which many Americans are unfamiliar with doing. This also requires them to use every club in their bag, including a few 2 irons, which might have to be taken out of the basement. Here are a few tips to help you play in a windy

Baldwin Angering Parishioners EAST HAMPTON: Notable Amagansett resident Alec Baldwin is not making friends at Most Holy Trinity Catholic Church in East Hampton. According to reports in the New York Post, many parishioners turned their backs on Baldwin as he went up to the pulpit to give a reading. According to a Post source: “Alec loves to be the center of attention and often reads from the pulpit, which really annoys some in the congregation. It is so bad that, one recent Sunday, he went up to read, and part of the congregation stood and rudely turned their backs on him.”

Breakers Win Hamptons Crown, Fall to Eagles

The Southampton Breakers cap off a successful season

SOUTHAMPTON: The Southampton Breakers won their first Hamptons Collegiate Baseball Championship on Aug. 2, as they beat the Riverhead Tomcats in a best-of-three series. The Breakers advanced to the 2012 Atlantic Collegiate Baseball League semifinals last Saturday, where they were bested by the North Jersey Eagles. Southampton finished the season with a 25-20 overall record, which includes four playoff wins, as they defeated both the North Fork Ospreys and the Tomcats en route to facing the Eagles. “I am proud of our guys,” said Southampton manager Rob Cafiero. “They played well all season, especially down the stretch, but it is a disappointment to lose your last game.” Hamptons Collegiate Baseball will be back in action for 2013, as the league continues to build on its early successes.

LONG ISLAND: Ten years ago, Russ L’HommeDieu, DPT lost over 200 pounds, and he has since stayed fit. In an effort to do something outrageous to commemorate this anniversary, he is planning a 260-mile paddle around Long Island alone in his kayak. With this paddle, he intends to, in his own words, 1. Raise Awareness that people can break the chains of obesity and they can do extraordinary things when they are free; 2. Raise awareness that weight loss is not about the weight you lose, it is about the life you gain; 3. Raise awareness that living a bigger life is the key to getting and keeping a smaller body; and 4. Raise money for the Diabetes Association. The paddle is expected to take 10 days. L’HommeDieu asserts that, according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), obesity is second only to smoking as a leading cause of preventable death in the United States. Visit longislandpaddle.blogspot.com for more information, to donate to the cause and to spread awareness of this preventable disease.

So much to see and do this weekend!

By nick chowske

here could be no better way to support Long Island’s rich maritime heritage than by enjoying a glass of wine while cruising across the Sound on a high-speed, luxury ferry. This is just what the East End Seaport Museum and Maritime Foundation, in Greenport, is offering for their annual “Super Cruise – See All the Lights” fund raising lighthouse tour. Local maritime expert Ted Webb, and Bob Allen, great-grandson of Cedar Point’s last lighthouse keeper, William Follett, will be narrating the tour of Long Island Sound and Gardner’s Bay’s most famous offshore lighthouses on September 10. All proceeds from the Super Cruise will go to support the East End Seaport Museum and Marine Foundation.

The Cedar Island Lighthouse in East Hampton

“The money we raise on this cruise will go towards the preservation of the Bug Light, which is one of the lighthouses we will see, as well as other maritime programs that we produce,” said Karen Doherty, Cruise Committee Chair for the East End Seaport Museum and Maritime Foundation. The Bug Light, officially known as the Long Beach Bar Lighthouse, received its quirky nickname from the framework of metal supports that held it up, which made it look like a large bug sitting on the water. Owned and maintained by the museum, the Bug Light was built in 1871 and fully restored in 1990, and has come to symbolize the museum’s mission of preserving Long Island’s seafaring heritage. “The neat thing about this trip is that it will be on the Jessica W,” said Doherty. “We’re very appreciative of Cross Sound Ferry donating this boat for us for the fundraiser.” The Jessica W is a high-speed catamaran, and with a cruising speed of 35 knots (40 mph), it’s the fastest ship in the Block Island Express fleet. “Certainly in comparison with a lot of our other lighthouse tours, it’s going to be much more comfortable,” she said. “We’ve been donating a ferry boat for their lighthouse cruises going back to the mid 90s,” said Stan Mickus, director of public affairs for Cross Sound Ferry.” The Jessica W features two air-conditioned decks with airline-style lounges and snack bars, as well as a spacious outdoor viewing deck. “The Jessica W is a unique vessel,” Mickus said. “It’s one of largest passenger-only, high-speed ferries that operates in this country.” The six-hour cruise includes a continental breakfast and a Boar’s Head Deli boxed lunch, along with a complimentary glass of wine or bottle of water. The museum’s regular vessels, the Peconic Star Express and the Peconic Star II, aren’t nearly as fast as the Jessica W, so guests will get to see and learn about nearly twice as many lighthouses as on the regular tour. “We’re going to visit 12 to 14 lighthouses in three different states, and we’re going to the New London

Long Beach “Bug Light” Lighthouse, built in 1871

Harbor lighthouse, which is the oldest lighthouse in Connecticut,” said Bob Allen, one of the tour’s narrators. The cruise will travel through Long Island Sound, Gardner’s Bay and Fisher’s Island Sound, passing by Connecticut and Rhode Island, before returning to New York. Allen, whose father and great-grandfather operated the Bug Light in the 1930s and 40s, as well as the lighthouse at Cedar Point, has been studying the beacons for more than a decade. “I knew I was related to a lighthouse-keeper and I just stared doing research,” he said. “The knowledge that I get I like to share, and I like to bring people back in time, so they get a feeling that they are in the lighthouse and know what to expect.” Allen’s narration is anything but just dry facts. “I don’t like to read from a script. I want to go out and be with the people and point out the different features that we’re talking about, and give them a little humor and a few facts,” he said. “By the time the tour is over, I’ll have talked to everyone on that boat, and I promise you, you’ll have had a good time.”

danshamptons.com MONTAUK SHOPPING

MONTAUK EVENTS

From rummage sales to boutiques.

Something for everyone on The End.

From Island to Island Clothing and Jewelry

Kailani

Other designs direct from Hawaii include an eclectic selection of sundresses from Machinemachine. The handmade dresses are crafted on the islands by Shannon Hiramoto, a young designer armed with two sewing machines and a dream. Burke started her relationship with the designer by featuring her hats â&#x20AC;&#x201C; baseball caps emblazoned with swatches of bright, flowery designs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; which have been selling like hotcakes to men and women alike. There is a bit of something for everyone in the shop â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with chic infant apparel from Hampton Babies prominently displayed, and an ever-expanding selection of menswear. In keeping with the island meets island tradition, local designers continue to rule. For men and women, there are t-shirts and apparel created by local boy Justin Burkle, the photographer and designer behind Montaukâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Forty One North. Burkleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nautically inspired designs and prints are on sale at Kailani and at Whalebone Creative, a collaborative project nestled in the old ice house at Duryeaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lobster Dock. Whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pair of shorts silkscreened with a sea turtle from Maui or a necklace created by Montaukâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own Dana Forbes, the offerings at Kailani are a perfect embodiment of beachy breezy style. Stop in to say Aloha, and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to leave with something you like.

Montauk may still be mourning the loss of the Ronjo, but there is still one bastion of Aloha spirit left in town. The girls at Kailani have been pumping beach inspired fashions into the hamlet through their own direct Hawaiian pipeline since 2008. In their second season at their breezy Main Street location, business is booming, with new hip designs from near and far gracing the sales racks and shelves. On Saturday Kailani will host a trunk show that co-owners Kristin Burke and Samantha Romanowski are particularly tickled about. The fusion of RockaBella and Pearl Love jewelry was inspired in part by the shop itself. Tara Aims and Emily Gardner, the creative duo behind the freshwater pearl and leather inspired collection at Pearl Love, had already started featuring their merchandise at Kailani when Jen White, a third partner at the shop who summers in Montauk but lives in the Aloha State, hooked them up with Kirstel Bandisch of RockaBella Jewels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Kirstel seems to be really good at marketing herself,â&#x20AC;? said Burke in an interview at Kailani on Sunday. Her designs have, most notably, been featured in the 2012 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a major accomplishment, considering those girls

arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wearing much in the first place. Now Bandisch has teamed up with the girls from Pearl Love to create some new designs, which will make their debut at the trunk show between 11 a.m. and 4 p.m. on Saturday. Both designers are already featured at Kailani â&#x20AC;&#x201C; perhaps most notably, Rockabellaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latitude/longitude line. With Montaukâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s coordinates etched in either silver or gold, girls who wear Pearl Love Jewelry the designs can remember where they came from, or at the very least, where they want to be. Burke has been so busy shopping and selling, in fact, that she has barely had time to keep up with her own jewelry line, kris b. designs. Luckily for us, there are still enough of her silver-suspended beach glass pieces for sale to tide us over until winter. Beautiful baubles arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only thing people are talking about from Kailani these days â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Burke, Romanowski, and White have been working hard, exploring craft fairs, trunk and trade shows near and far to pick up some of the hottest merchandise in Montauk. One of the biggest sellers is a new line of shorts by Tiari Hawaii. The lacy tie-die stretch shorts look like baby clothes at first glance. But the flexible elastic fabric and flirty lace add a delicious transformation to any derriere. They may be cute on the table but â&#x20AC;&#x153;they look hot on,â&#x20AC;? said Burke. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Victoriaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Secret models are wearing them.â&#x20AC;?

A 14-foot-long pink phallus is visible from the beach. Have you seen it? Lindemann told The New York Post that, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The sculpture is by Franz West, the great Austrian sculptor who passed away just two weeks ago. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s there temporarily and will come down in the early fall. Coincidentally it serves as a small homage to him â&#x20AC;&#x201C; though one neighbor did refer to it as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Mobyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dick.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; And I like to think Franz would have liked that.â&#x20AC;? The piece is actually named Eidolon.

In a recent article, The New York Times explored Montaukâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hipster infiltrationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and its noticeable effects, like valet parking, $27 lobster rolls and latenight security at some establishments. The paper also profiled The American Hotel, a longtime Sag Harbor fixture, which has remained immune to similar influences. Everything â&#x20AC;&#x153;newâ&#x20AC;? is still old.

Southampton Arts Festival Sunday

n Sunday, August 19 at 5 p.m., The Southampton Cultural Center will be the place to be to witness an “extraordinary cast of musicians,” says Elena Baksht, concert pianist, and Founder and Executive Director of The Southampton Arts Festival. This promises to be an “extraordinary night,” says Baksht. The concert will feature child prodigy, William Chen, 9-year-old pianist and winner of the “Little Mozart” competition. “He has incredible maturity in his playing,” Baksht says of Chen, “and at the same time, we encourage people to bring their children to the concert since it is very inspiring.” The concert is result of Baksht’s and other musician’s desire to “give back, because many of us were child prodigies ourselves.” Baksht, Russian-born, was dubbed “the pianist with the magic touch,” by The Washington Post, and performed at the age of 11, Bach’s D-Minor Piano Concerto, with the Moscow Philharmonic Orchestra at Moscow’s Central Hall of the Arts. She is a soloist and chamber musician who has performed in the U.S. and all over the world. She regularly performs with violinist Dmitri Berlinsky. It is her belief in the “synergy between music, education and medicine,” that led her to create this event, which highlights the relationship between child prodigies and autism. Part of the proceeds are going to autism research and education. Baksht became aware of the work of psychology professor

“Public Art” is Growing Art well. Video art is joining the ranks of the neon advertisements; simply put, public art installations, generally, are expanding in concept and execution. The idea of video art in Times Square derives from The Public Art Program for the Times Square Alliance, according to its Director, East Ender Sherry Dobbin. Dobbin brings a lot of expertise to the project, having served in diverse artistic fields as a producer, curator and administrator. (It’s interesting to note that while her demeanor is gracious and low-key, she’s in charge of big, bold and overwhelming art configurations.) The “overwhelming” part has to do with size and scope: the video screens are six stories high and can be seen from 42nd to 47th Street on Broadway. When they are projected is not as long-ranging, however: every night from 11:57 p.m. to midnight. “Three minutes to countdown,” as Dobbin playfully puts it. The videos change once a month. In June, the video titled Buoy, by artist Seoungho Cho, looked like the side of a canyon. The textures and shapes were arresting to the eye. Most intriguing, however, was the fact that a billboard for The Hard Rock Café hung nearby, thus making the connection between different kinds of “rocks.” In July, images by three artists (Elly Cho, Vicki DaSilva and Surabhi Saraf) were each spread out among the other billboards.

Last week’s “Art Commentary” celebrated the virtues of public art, including some buildings on Park Avenue which recalled majestic installations. While mentioning “majestic installations,” we can’t help but also consider Times Square and its neon billboards, an iconic environment that’s known around the world. We know that Times Square has changed through the years, regarding what happens on the ground, who “hangs out there” and what kind of traffic ensues. While the billboards continue to remain part of the setting, the above ground space is changing as

he most fascinating video, by Erika Janunger, was on display in August. Labeled “Weightless,” it shows a figure suspend in space from a wall, defying gravity. (The image can’t help but recall Donald O’Connor dancing up a wall in the film, Singin’ in the Rain.) The horizontal composition counterbalances the nearby vertical sign for Kodak. All in all, the subject’s unusual position is a definite eye-stopper. While viewers can appreciate the video art itself, challenges abound because, after all, such art is mounted in Times Square. According to Dobbin, at least four entities must approve the art, including the property owner, individuals who deal with content and people who sell the space. As for Dobbin, she must coordinate elements with the artists, curators, sign holders and editors. But Dobbin also considers other less technical aspects of the “largest electronic billboard in the world.” For example, what effect does the art have on viewers who are not used to such experiences? Moreover, Dobbin notes that the setting’s sheer magnitude places the audience in “the center of a canyon, uncertain as to where they are.” Questions, like how we can learn about ourselves from such public art, also come up. Yet Dobbin is thinking ahead as well regarding the future of public art. She envisions arts organizations and local government agencies creating more exciting art pieces in the redevelopment of city centers, for example. Performance and visual artists can play an important part in community development, too, says Dobbin. “We should stop apologizing for public art,” she adds. “We should stop trying to justify it. We should just accept it.” For more information about the digital gallery, visit timessquarenyc.org.

Dearie: The Remarkable Life of Julia Child By Joan baum

Among all the centennial salutes of what would have been Julia Child’s 100th birthday on August 15, none surpassed getting a Google Doodle. Still, in the spirit of what she did, Julia Child Restaurant Week and The Smithsonian’s re-opening of her kitchen come pretty close to matching Google’s efforts. Add to the celebratory mix a fine, new biography just out – Dearie: The Remarkable Life of Julia Child by Bob Spitz (Knopf). The author, who has won numerous awards for his celebrity bios (among other writings) of music icons like The Beatles and Bob Dylan, is already stirring up a buzz with Dearie. Spitz’s book represents the best in the genre – solid research, an engaging narrative and a persuasive sense of the timeliness and significance of his subject. He meets with his own style what he sees as Julia’s – an informed but “casual approach to a vital and substantive discipline.” For her, the discipline was French cooking; for him (“an avid cook” who grew up on her books), it was writing a biography, at her suggestion, that would testify to her “insatiable hunger” to express herself in her own way. Her rising fame coincided with a wider cultural revolution about women’s roles (Julia was a de facto feminist). Betty Friedan’s The Feminine Mystique, which heralded feminism de jure, came out not that long after Mastering the Art of French Cooking). Meanwhile, Julia’s arrival in 1962 at WBGH, to take part in an academic public television show

on reading, shocked the studio execs. The 50-year-old, gangly 6’ 3” nonconformist didn’t want to talk about her book so much as demonstrate techniques in it and thus demystify what was then considered forbidden territory for women. Only men were famous chefs; women were housewives. But there was Julia Child saying anyone can do Boeuf Bourgnignon! And thus began the series, “The French Chef,” which would not only change cooking and eating habits in American homes, but television itself. She was, as Spitz says, “the first educational TV star.” Spitz confesses that the more he learned about Julia McWilliams Child in person (he met her in 1992 when he was on a magazine assignment in Italy and traveled with her through Sicily), from friends and colleagues, and going through the archives in the Schlesinger Library at Harvard (85 boxes), including her papers and those of her husband, the career diplomat Paul Child, the deeper his admiration, which probably accounts for the book’s size: 557 pages, including photos and index. It could have been longer, but Spitz shrewdly moved the documentation online so as to keep the narrative uninterrupted and conversational. And he clearly realized his promise to her to write a book in which the reader “could smell the food on the page.” Unhappy with a biography someone else was doing, she asked him to do one that would capture her personality as well as the sensuous world

in which she moved. He thinks he has honored those requests. His Julia is larger than life, “her talent, relentless hard work and independent spirit jump off the page.” The breadth and depth of his exhaustive inquiry – and his “love” for “Dearie” -- her pet name for everyone, including him, beggars in the street, even dogs! -- enabled him to achieve what eludes many biographers – a sense of a complex subject as an organic whole. Thus, the apparent disjunctions in Julia’s life -- including her fleeing her conventional upper-class Pasadena roots to run off to Southeast Asia at the age of 31 and join a spy network ---evolve into a sustaining coherent theme about her character (the sections on her on-air differences with Jacques Pépin are delicious). So easily does Spitz merge himself into his subject that it seems inevitable that he incorporates diction from her world into his own prose, as in “Nothing sustained her like a ripe idea, a fresh experience, a saucy challenge.” And check out those edited scripts from early shows on the book’s attractive inside hard covers. Bob Spitz will be reading from Dearie on Friday, August 24 at 7 p.m. at Books and Books, 130 Main Street in Westhampton Beach, probably from the section where Julia discovers a spectacular fish dish at lunch in Rouen – “the meal that was about to change Julia Child’s life.”

Neopolitical Cowgirls’ “Eve” By nanci e. lagarenne

ate Mueth, of Springs, started to write a film about women super heroes saving the planet Earth, but she didn’t finish it. She did start something else, however, to herald the voice of women. Neopolitical Cowgirls is a dance theatre company, whose name means an “earthy, new, female perspective.” Not on politics in the traditional sense, but as women living in this world as part of the world. Or as Mueth puts it, “transcending politics in a wild way.” Mueth’s genre is “Dance theatre emersion. Storytelling in a physical way.” The audience participates in that they are voyeurs in small eye masks, to make people feel free and anonymous: they have “a personal experience” and can “be the ghost in the room.” Or rooms as it were, since, there are 12 rooms at LTV Studio in Wainscott,

I love this community and want to share my work here, and use it as a fundraiser too, which we have done before.” Mueth, and her production company, under the website, Evehamptons.com offers women’s workshops, featuring writing, talk, “a

like to see one of the great blues performers of the 50’s, complete with vocal flourishes, high-energy delivery, and even audience participation. White’s performance is a dazzling tour de force. Unfortunately, her performance is tethered to a script that threatens to sink the show at any moment. Not much is known about Smith, and so the biographical details presented in the show are a mix of what is known and storylines of what the program calls “several iconographic characters.” The result is the biographical fallacy described earlier, taken way beyond the realm of the plausible. The writer, Paul Levine, appears to me to have taken a mass of clichés about female blues singers and placed them on Smith: she’s grandly promiscuous, runs with a pimp, snorts heroin, drinks heavily, and is often depressed about these and other problems. The root of her troubles, the script suggests, is self-esteem issues related to her weight. Fair enough. The problem is that Levine has basically invented this back-story for Smith, and he seems to be encouraging us to believe that Smith was a great blues singer because of the difficult life she lead. We don’t hear about practicing her act, we don’t hear about writing songs, we don’t know how she learned to do what she did. The show perpetuates assumptions about musical creation and performers’ development that verge on the insulting. It’s not that you can’t sing the blues if you haven’t lived the blues – you can’t sing the blues if you DON’T KNOW HOW. Luckily, Lillias White DOES know how to sing the blues, and she saves the show. The beginning of the second act is especially good, as she introduces the band and the show becomes more like a concert. They should lose the rest of the script, and just let her sing all night.

ouis Armstrong, when asked by a (white) reporter to define jazz, is said to have quipped, “Man, if you have to ask what it is, you’ll never know.” Whether he said it or not, it’s a great quote, cleverly getting at the ineffable yet widely conceded differences between “black” and “white” modes of expression. When it comes to the early blues, the archetypal black music, you’ll hear people tempted by biographical explanations. Call it the biographical fallacy: the music sounds that way because it’s the music of an oppressed people, the performers lived hard lives, drinking too much, gambling and hanging around with loose women, or even selling their souls to the devil. Not only does this explanation reek of cultural stereotyping, but it also ignores the obvious. That is, the blues was (and is) a STYLE, cultivated by gifted performers and wildly popular with black audiences through the 1950’s. Black performers worked harder at it and got better at it because it’s what their audience liked. They evolved idiosyncratic, virtuosic ways of singing and playing, as well as vivid stage personas that complemented the style. Though many might have engaged in dangerous behavior offstage, or battled personal demons, this was probably attributable to the hazards of the life of any professional performer. For them, the blues was a job. Big Maybelle: Soul of the Blues, playing through September 2 at Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor, dramatizes the life and career of the blues singer Maybelle Smith, dubbed “Big Maybelle” because, well, she was big. As Big Maybelle, the fabulous Lillias White belts out some great blues, many written by or originally recorded by Maybelle Smith, accompanied by a cracker-jack onstage band. In what is practically a one-woman show, White gives the audience a taste of what it must have been Lillias White is Big Maybelle

Riverhead: Polish Town Fair & More

Riverhead is a popular destination for its Tanger Outlet Center offering more than 400 brand name factory outlet stores. Check out www.tangeroutlet.com/riverhead/ If you find yourself in the not-so-glamorous-asthe-Hamptons downtown, be sure to acknowledge Riverhead’s most historical section—Polish Town. Polish Town was established by Polish immigrants in the late 1800s, and although the surrounding areas have been updated, Polish Town has held onto its roots. The Town is filled with small stores, which include a homestyle Polish grocer, deli, pizzeria, and restaurants. The Town is also home to Long Island’s oldest Polish Roman Catholic church—St. Isidore’s, named for the patron saint of farmers. And on August 18 & 19, the streets are filled with traditional music, food and beer vendors as Polish Town’s hosts The Polish Town Fair—an event that attracts nearly 200,000 visitors. Just a few streets away, located right in downtown Riverhead is the newly renovated Grangabel Park, which the Peconic River runs through. It offers a new paved arena, a picnic area and vast scenic views. If you’re feeling adventurous, stop by The Peconic Paddler located at 89 Peconic Avenue, right near the Park. The Peconic Paddler offers visitors a chance to kayak, or paddleboard on the Peconic River, over dams, under roads and past historic sites.

A local favorite famous for their fried chicken wings. Don’t forget to ask for their special dipping sauce! If you’re looking for an exquisite dining experience try the Riverhead Project (Main Street), which evokes an upscale Hamptons style, offering contemporary American cuisine. Or try Tweed’s restaurant located in the J.J Sullivan Hotel on Main Street. This Victorian era hotel offers a few interesting vegetarian dishes as well as bison burgers and steaks. It’s fully equipped with stained glass, chandeliers and an oak fireplace. In the mood for some local seafood? Try Jerry & the Mermaid located on Main Street next to the new Hyatt Hotel. Jerry’s provides a kid-friendly menu, a great bar scene, and indoor-outdoor seating over a scenic water view. Dessert? Sure why not, we are on vacation, right? Don’t miss out on Riverhead’s famous homemade Ice cream located on West Main Street.

Wall Street Rocks Amagansett By kelly laffey

Vincent Pelly

all Street will rock the Stephen Talkhouse on Saturday, as music virtuosos from the business sector come together to raise money for the Wounded Warrior Project and ReserveAid. In a clash of casual Friday clad professionals, Saturday’s Wall Street Rocks Battle of the Bands will feature three bands comprised of employees from across the financial, technology and entertainment industries. After the Battle of the Bands competition, two guest bands, C3 (The Chocolate Cuckoo Clocks) and Madame Mayhem, will take the stage to play sets. “As always, we are excited to put on a lively and fun event that will raise money for our benefit charities, Wounded Warrior Project and ReserveAid,” says James Macedonio, an Executive Director at Morgan Stanley who is one of Wall Street Rocks’ founding members. Wall Street Rocks is a nonprofit organization with the collective goal of raising support and funds for America’s heroes. The idea for a business sector Battle of the Bands was conceived last summer, as a few bands from different firms came together for an informal concert in New York. “To our surprise, the evening had a strong turnout of our friends and colleagues, and we realized we could utilize our relationships and talent for a bigger cause – supporting our country’s heroes,” says Macedonio.

Founders George Chrisafis, Hank Hyatt, Leslie Kirby, Neil Holstein and James Macedonio

Wall Street Rocks Battle of the Bands, Stephen Talkhouse, Amagansett. Begins at 6:30 p.m. General Admission tickets $75, VIP tickets include complimentary open bar, 6:308 p.m., hors d’oeuvres, access to the Wall Street Rocks after party, 10:30 p.m. – midnight at the Hampton Players Club and two complimentary tickets to the Wall Street Rocks’ final Battle of the Bands in December, $100. Food provided by La Parmigiana. Tickets can be purchased at wallstreetrocks.eventbrite.com www.wallstreetrocks.org.

“Music is a part of everyone’s lives, and talent can be found in any line of business.” The result was Wall Street Rocks Battle of the Bands, which held its first event at Irving Plaza in New York last fall. The night raised over $200,000, and the organizers are hoping to double that amount this year through a series of three competitions. The fundraising efforts kicked off with a sold-out first round battle at Mercury Lounge in New York on July 10. After passing through the Talkhouse, the final Battle of the Bands will be held in the city in December, where the winner of the Wall Street Rocks Battle of the Bands 2012 will be announced. A New York tour may not be in a typical Wall Street job description, but the event exposes the suits’ wild side. Many call upon their inner, proverbial angstridden American adolescent, as they have always had the passion to perform. “Music is a part of everyone’s lives, and talent can be found in any line of business,” says Macedonio. “However, quite often, there isn’t the opportunity for professionals to come together and channel their musical abilities for a great cause.” The night promises to deliver an eclectic mix of sounds from established New York area bands who are devoted to the benefitting charities. The three competing bands include the Moroccan Sheepherders, whose sound ranges from tribal ambient trance to hardcore blues rock, The Subscribers, who span a variety of genres, and The Holiday Electric, who are influenced by rock, pop and progressive music. “Wall Street Rocks provides a forum for bands to make a difference, and we look forward to engaging with people from all industries to support our country’s heroes,” says Macedonio. The Wounded Warrior project supports service men and women who were injured in the line of duty, as they provide programs that help to ease the transition to civilian life. ReserveAid gives need-based grants to military families of reservist or National Guard members to help pay for such obligations as rent, utility bills or car payments. 9626

A Magical & Musical Event By joan baum

he sits in the huge white studio, Jimmy Ernst’s old house, light glancing off art all around her – her sculpture, paintings, drawings, books about her long and varied career. Her work is in permanent collections at, among others, MoMA, The Guggenheim, The Whitney, The Museum of Modern Art, but here she is talking about her participation in an upcoming event at Guild Hall, where she will be playing the banjo -- one of the five differentsized banjos she owns, including one for which she designed inlay. Though the group with which she’ll be performing is called Audrey Flack and the History of Art Band, and the speakers that night include art historians (Helen Harrison, Director of the Pollock-Krasner House and Gail Levin, author of Lee Krasner: A Biography), and the event will also feature a rarely seen 10-minute video of Jackson Pollock, by Hans Namuth, her own contribution will be singing and picking and strumming away on an instrument she fell in love with in her graduate school days at Yale (after she fell in love with a banjo player). She had played classical piano for years but the banjo’s “pure” sound -- “the clarity of a harpsichord” – got to her (“and you can take it everywhere”), not to mention its folk heritage. Likely of African origin (though not certain) and brought to this country by slaves, the banjo can be said to be, like jazz, distinctively American. She is pleased to be continuing a revival movement that began in the 50’s when musicians went to Appalachia to reclaim, record and add to that heritage. The songs, which she refers to as in the tradition of Old Time Music, which pre-dates Bluegrass, are a particular delight of hers and of her autistic daughter, Melissa (53), one of the main reasons for

the upcoming event at Guild Hall. Proceeds from the event will go to provide “aid to individuals with autism and their families.” Note that, she says, “and their families.” She is, of course, encouraging of and grateful for autism research, but she’s more immediately concerned about helping distraught parents of autistic children, usually women, The History of Art Band the mothers, who typically go it alone, desperate, “stressed out,” without social networking opportunities or financial support. She will be singing to them, for them. And perhaps talking a bit about some ideas to help them through crisis periods. Recently back from banjo camp, where she continued to hone her skills, she’ll be playing with her History of Art Band colleagues (two of whom have special needs siblings) -- two basses, two guitars and another banjo. The songs, most of which she writes, reflect her “mission” to celebrate overlooked, undervalued and beleaguered women, undersung heroines, many connected with the creative arts. She’ll also be slyly mocking with signature humor and wit, male hegemony, especially as seen in various movements in art history -- Impressionism, Modernism, Surrealism, Minimalism, Conceptualism, Post-Modernism, Post-Minimalism, Photorealism – “The Ism Blues.” Her various lives as a visual artist, musician and advocate – cohere. She speaks of her sculpture, her music and her campaign for greater autism awareness as about “redemption” – helping women emerge from buried achievements and unappreciated sacrifice. She wants to revise “false Greek myths” and bring to

life, “expose,” actually, “the real stories” of women who suffered in the shadows or under the thumb of greater presences, such as the sculptor and graphic artist Camille Claudel (1864 – 1943), the sister of the poet and diplomat Paul Claudel and Rodin’s muchabused muse, model and lover with whom she had children. Her banjo songs, she says, on behalf of such women and also on behalf of overwhelmed mothers of autistic children follow the Old Time Music tradition because they deal with dark subjects but also incorporate humor, usually by way of rhyme. She’ll probably say a few words about the import of each song before she plays. She’s also been thinking about setting up a “mobile crisis unit” of some kind, a 24-hour Autism Hotline on the model of existing hotlines that serve those in critical need, and also, perhaps, start a mothers’ support group. Crises occur with parents of autistic children, especially for those who cannot afford therapy. The women fall apart, get exhausted, go into deep depression, some of them. Many of their children have multiple disorders. And they often get angry when others see their autistic children and react insensitively. Yes, there are autistic children in the “beautiful Hamptons” and a great need for compassion, understanding and sympathy. Let music soothe the savage breast. Audrey Flack and the History of Art Band at Guild Hall, August 25, 8 p.m. Dick Cavett will be hosting the event. Opening performances by Caroline Doctorow, Evan Frankel and Michael Weiskopf.

gets longer. Goldstein advises to carefully plan and select foods that will keep your organs healthy. The chapter “Bags and Sags: Portrait of a Spleen Face” describes the importance and role of the spleen and how it affects almost everything in our body. Our kidneys, heart, lungs and liver are equally important and there is an abundance of helpful information on each. Sleep is yet another area in which we don’t pay enough attention. Our health is directly affected not only by how much sleep we get, but by the quality of our sleep. When we are tired, we look tired! And hair – my hair is not the same as it was when I was younger and I feel like I’m constantly losing more and more. Goldstein recommends a ginger oil hair tonic that is amazing. Step by step self-acupressure points (great to follow for healthy kidneys, bladder, etc.) are offered with images and descriptions as well as the ultimate self-facelift with details for a healthier and younger neck, face, hands and arms. If there is really a secret fountain of youth, I want to be the first in line. Perhaps for some beauty is only skin deep. Your Best Face Now is a tool for preserving and maintaining the “beautiful you.” We are all beautiful in our own unique way. But as an aging population, we have to work at maintenance. Goldstein’s recommendations are simple and natural. Try it yourself – they really work!

By kelly ann krieger

here are so many beauty solutions, cosmetic surgery options, laser treatments and healthy tips, it can be overwhelming and at times confusing. But, the promise to turn back “Father Time” and slow the aging process is exactly what many of us dream of after a certain age. With that being said, studies have proven that we can’t defy time, but we can certainly delay the aging process with proper care, exercise and a healthy diet. Being 40-something – I find myself constantly looking for remedies and quick fixes. The fact is, there are no quick fixes! However, there are things we can do as part of our daily routine that will improve our health and appearance. As fate would have it, a few weeks ago a new beauty book landed on my desk. I was skeptical at first, but I have to admit that after perusing the pages of Shellie Goldstein’s latest beauty secret Your Best Face Now, I have a new outlook on beauty care and healthy living. Your Best Face Now is the perfect beach read and “go to” beauty guide this summer. This helpful “beauty/healthy bible” offers page after page of fantastic beauty tips, healthy recipes and daily living advice. And, if you follow Goldstein’s tips (also the creator of the AcuFacial facelift), she promises you will look younger in 20 days. With this do-it-

yourself acupressure facelift technique and immensely useful information, beauty is made easy. In real life, we will all experience that pivotal moment when we become startled by those fine lines and beginning signs of aging. I must admit the first time I noticed a few wrinkles, I did not look in the mirror closely for a week. Fast forward to the present and I can’t avoid looking. Those intensely magnified mirrors are scary and addicting at the same time. Goldstein herself came into her own when she looked in the mirror one day and began to see a change in her appearance. Your Best Face Now describes how healthy digestion plays a major role in the appearance of our skin, hair and glow. We are what we eat, and I have not been on target with a healthy diet in some time. I’m always on the go, trying to squeeze everything in my schedule and I never feel at ease or relaxed. My mind is always racing, and my “To Do List” only

The “Dog Days” of August When the days get very hot and the gardeners are so sweaty that even their hands sweat, most plants, with exception of a few that like to bloom at this time like the rudbeckias and the perennial hibiscus, slow down. Even if deadheaded, they rebloom more slowly. These are “the dog days” of August. I wondered what this

phrase means and where it comes from, so I did a bit of research. The ancient Romans thought these hottest and most sultry days of the year were an evil time causing “the sea to boil and the wine to sour.” They “made dogs mad and other creatures languid, gave humans disease, burning fevers, hysterics and phrensies.” The phrase is the term given to the time of year when Sirius, the largest star in the Canis Major constellation,

is in conjunction with the sun; that is it rises and sets in relation to the sun. It is also the largest star in the sky. The mythology of Sirius and its relationship to the earth go back to ancient times. The Egyptians used Sirius as a “watchdog’ for the flooding of the Nile and thought that, given its relation to the sun and its size, it added heat to the earth, causing hot and sultry days. The flooding of the Nile allowed them to grow food so Sirius was associated with abundance and was connected to their highest-ranking gods and goddesses. Additionally, they believed the souls of the dead went to Sirius. They made this time the beginning of their new year and based their calendar on it. Here are some more interesting bits about Sirius: The Mesopotamians called Sirius “the dog.” In The Iliad, Homer compared Achilles to Sirius and suggested that its reflection on the bronze armor results in “ill fortune and death that is associated with the summer sauna and brings great fever to frail men” The Greeks named the star Seiros which means scorching and called it colloquially the Dog Star. Aristotle mentions “dog days.” The ancient Chinese called Sirius the heavenly wolf and thought of it as the bridge between heaven and hell. The Assyrians called it “dog of the sun.” The ancient Babylonians referred to Sirius as “dog that leads.” The Akkadians called it “Dog Star of the Sun.” The Phoenicians called Sirius “the one who barks” The early people of this continent had mythologies with Sirius at the center. The aspect of the dog days is used in connection with the stock market when during this slow time of year; poorly performing stocks are called “dogs.” The patron saint of dogs, Saint Roch, is celebrated on August 16. Dickens mentions it in a description of Scrooge. When the beliefs moved into common use it was said that this time would: “make women more passionate, men more feverish, and that dogs would get rabies, become lethargic and mad.” While I was researching the “dog days,” which astrologically are really July 3 to August 11, I discovered much more information than can possibly be mentioned here. I realized that this ubiquitous phrase has a long and multifaceted history. I dread the dog days in the garden, but there are tasks to do: Harvest the bounty from the vegetable garden. Vegetables left on plants stop further production. Prune flowering shrubs. Keep watering, deadheading, and weeding. Make sure your mulch is heavy enough and has not been blown away. Plant garlic, you will be thankful you did next year. Water regularly and deeply at the base of the plants. Pick herbs for drying. Make green tomato chutney and mincemeat. Make pickles and freeze tomatoes. Peas, beans, radishes, spinach, lettuce, kale and even early maturing tomatoes can be planted. (I would plant tomato plants, not seeds.) This is the time to make those bulb lists for fallplanted bulbs. When you see colchicums at the nurseries, get a few and plant them for a wonderful surprise. Look around your garden and decide which plants will need dividing. And as my husband says about the heat in the garden when I complain, “yield to it.” Jeanelle Myers is a professional gardener and consultant, for gardening discussion you can call her at 631-434-5067. prairiestarflowers.com

ere on the East End, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re proud of our family businesses that have survived the economic crisis. On that note, I introduce Tom Mac, founder and owner of Mac Landscape & Associates, located at 125 Snake Hollow Road in Bridgehampton. Mac is a born-and-raised Sag Harborite who can explain the ups and downs of the landscaping business. It was an honor to speak with Mac who takes pride in the fact that, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;been around for a while.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Back then, landscaping wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t what it is now,â&#x20AC;? explains Mac, owner of this professional, friendly and reliable property design construction and maintenance service. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Back in 1976, the Hamptons wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;The Hamptonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; yet, you started a landscaping company you had a lawnmower and once a month you would plant a shrub...sometimes. Life was simple back then. Now everything is more evolved, more

artistic,â&#x20AC;? Mac explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I love it. I love the business.â&#x20AC;? Mac began his landscaping company over 30 years ago and takes pride in his professional workmanship. (One of his first jobs was maintaining the old Danâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Papers offices in Bridgehampton.) He dedicates his time to providing high quality with competitive prices to a clientele that demands nothing but the best. His experienced workers provide services that include design and construction diagnosis and disease control, fertilization and feeding, pest management, property maintenance and a variety of other related tasks like maintaining and caring for trees, shrubs and lawns. Clients have described Macâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s landscaping as â&#x20AC;&#x153;artistry,â&#x20AC;? creating nothing but beautiful landscapes that will allow your property to be transformed into a scenic roadside site.

But whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the Mac philosophy that distinguishes him from the competition? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been around the block a couple of times. Mac understands the area, his clients, and the business, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not going to introduce myself and try to sell you the world. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to listen and see what you need and try my best to come up with exactly what you want,â&#x20AC;? Mac explains. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our mission is really about taking care of our clients, during the summer especially, so they can enjoy their time out here without any distractions,â&#x20AC;? Mac says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think we still have a small enough business where we are hands-on. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about relationships and trust. I visit my clients still to this day, clients that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had for years; Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re growing old together.â&#x20AC;? Mac says with a chuckle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a family oriented business. My sons are talented, because, well, they had a great teacher.â&#x20AC;? Mac believes the importance of his company lies in the longevity of his employees. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very personal for us. The longevity of our employees is a major factor of why we are still here. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been with me for eight to fourteen years, everybody has expertise in their own fields. We all complement each other.â&#x20AC;? What differentiates Mac from any other landscaping company in the Hamptons? His passion for the field. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What keeps me in the game is the fact that my job allows me to be creative and I get the opportunity to meet all kinds of new people. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been meeting people for the last 30 years, a wide range of people from writers to lawyers to actors.â&#x20AC;? Mac explains. When asked about his celebrity clientele Mac explained that â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very interesting career, I could write a book. But we maintain complete confidentiality. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what makes me a professional. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not in awe of people. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m here to maintain their properties.â&#x20AC;? Mac also explained to me the hardships that are involved with a business like landscaping, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It comes to a point in todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x201C; not only economy but â&#x20AC;&#x201C; society, where the client needs to be aware that anybody who works on their properties needs to be asked about workers comp, liability and insurances. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m proud to be a small business that gives a fair share to the government. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most important to me is the support Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve received from local communities of the East End, and I plan to work as hard as I can to never loose that support.â&#x20AC;? Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most important thing about property maintenance that any homeowner or renter should never forget? Mac explains that â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of people on the East End need to take precautions about the rising tick population,â&#x20AC;? a vital service that Mac Landscape provides to its customers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This field is almost impossible to master, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a great student and I hope to remain that way for many years to come,â&#x20AC;? Mac states and here at Danâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Papers we have faith in business-owners such as Tom Mac who are reliable, professional, and personable.

Styled and Sold, Artfully By kelly ann krieger

n today’s real estate market, every detail makes a difference, and presentation plays an eminent role in the sale of a home. When it comes to high-end multi-million dollar homes in the Hamptons, the key ingredient is the “wow” factor. “What sells a home is love at first sight,” says interior designer and professional stager Allegra Dioguardi. With nearly 30 years of interior design and staging experience, Dioguardi has created magical and stylish homes for a long list of elite clients. Dioguardi began her love of interior design when she entered the prestigious Parsons School of Design. After receiving her degree, she began working for builders as an interior merchandiser for model homes. Each home staging client is different, and Dioguardi’s current project “105 Beach Lane” in Westhampton Beach afforded her the opportunity to use her creative talents and design skills in quite a unique way. Beach Lane is a contemporary, 4 bedrooms, 4.5 bath (en-suite) home with an architectural design for the open-minded. The property, originally built for avid art collectors who wanted to display their artwork in an elegant way, was like a dream come true for Diougardi because she was able to bring local artists on board to display their work in the space as a part of the staging. She is currently working with Charles Wildbank, Steve Alpert and Ron Burkhardt. Upon entering the home, a grand white atrium with limestone flooring greets you. Rounding each curve of this 100-foot deep, two-story high atrium is a visual surprise or “reveal” as they say. Wildbank’s works were perfect in this particular space and added to the flow in a seamless manner, as he employs hues of blue and wave-like creations. Burkhardt’s masterful and bright paintings add to the “media room,” as the powerful colors play well off one another and bring a sense of fun to the space. Alpert’s softer style works well throughout the home and offers a sense of serenity in spaces like the living room and entryway/hallway to the second floor. And Wildbank’s “Summer Soup” brightens the kitchen and works well off the accessories and furniture. Beach Lane is truly unique in that each room evokes a different emotion and complements the space. To have such artwork in this home is an honor and privilege as well as an unbelievable selling tool. In many cases, a potential buyer may wish to purchase all or some of the furnishings and artwork. “Staging is a win-win situation for everyone involved. Owner, buyer, realtor and staging expert work as a team and individually benefit in different ways,” shared Allegra. “Home staging plays an important role as a tool to help sell a house. I referred Allegra to the seller because I had experience working with her in the past. A potential buyer can view the house and know exactly how it would feel to be living there. Staging in this manner can create an emotional attachment to the house certainly leading to a sale,” said Eileen Brod, the listing agent and Vice President of First Hampton International Realty. Before each staging project, there are a few very key factors that must be discussed. First and foremost is the demographic. Next is the budget – every client must agree on a budget. Once a budget is in place, the staging expert knows exactly how to manage and coordinate each project. Furniture, paint, décor, artwork, drapery, slip covers, chair covers, pillows, etc. plus labor and fees will all be covered in the cost. The cost of each staging project varies depending on the size of the home, the clients’ vision and the time frame. Some assignments may require only a quick facelift while others may entail starting with a “blank canvas.” “Studies have shown that 1 out of 10 people have difficulty visualizing an empty space in a home. If people like what they see, they can imagine living there. A home should be designed to sell,” Dioguardi shared.

There’s no need to go back inside because it’s getting too dark outside. This will insure that the party never ends. Now available for the first time ever are plastic cards for the pool by Game. You’ll be able to play your favorite card games whether it’s Go Fish, Poker, War or even Uno in the pool. You don’t have to worry about ruining these cards. Card games used to be for the kitchen table or the deck. Now with this creative new way of playing cards that’s a thing of the past. Enjoy this great pastime with your friends and family. With all of these new and exciting ways to have fun in the pool there are still the classics including the snorkel, foam noodle, alligator float and many more. But why not change things up a bit? You can never have too many items for your pool to make hanging by the pool even more fun. You can find these items variously at Kmart, Skidmore’s in Hampton Bays, Target or at amazon.com.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR BE WHERE? Hi Dan! Here’s my little story of your reading of Werewolf Path last Sunday: After driving around the area for over half an hour looking for Werewolf Path, saving a turtle, and then reluctantly giving up on the reading Sunday morning, Bonnie spots Dan at the side of the road, posting directions. (All photos courtesy of Matruka Sherman of Water Mill.) Dan and Fan (Bonnie Wylo of Ann Arbor, Michigan) discuss possible routes en route to Werewolf Path Sunday morning. Bonnie and Dan consult his original map; she’d been using the one inside the back cover of Dan’s book. Google clearly recognizes Werewolf Path on Dan’s phone, even if ground-based residents think they live on Old Sag Harbor Road. Finally! Dan reads. Yay! Fan of Dan getting “Still in the Hamptons” autographed. Thrilled!!! Dan’s posted map. Rescued turtle -- moved from the middle of Big Noyac Path to the woods on the other side, presuming he was heading the way he was facing. Dan, I’m so glad it worked out! Thank you again! Warmly, Bonnie The fight begins to save Werewolf Path. —DR

LIRR Dear Dan, After 17 years of co-existing with the Long Island Rail Road that runs along the property line of our North Main Street home, I had my initiation by fire with the dark side of the railroad’s intention to be a friendly neighbor. The ultimate insult happened on July 26, when we had a house full of children and grandchildren. That day, the train hit a deer and tossed it onto their rightof-way embankment adjacent to our home. I naturally called the main phone number for the railroad and connected to “public affairs” where someone took my information. I asked to verify that someone would be forthcoming to remove the decaying deer remains which by now was being decimated by the bugs, animals and rodents on the railroad property. I was told by the public service representative that they could only deliver my message. By then it was 4 p.m. and no one works after 4 p.m., so I began to leave messages for both the Town and Village of East Hampton urging that the carcass be removed the next day. Friday morning I heard back from the Town and Village that they may not go onto the railroad property. I then began to call at least 11 phone numbers at the LIRR – only two phones actually had a person at the other end to answer and tell me that the matter of a dead deer was not their department. The entire day I had no callbacks, no help, total inertia from an agency that receives mountains of money from the taxpaying public. A call to the MTA

police revealed that they, the railroad police, can only deliver a message. They cannot “tell them what to do.” Finally, a helpful hint came in a call to a New York State Wildlife group who told us to get someone to drag the dead deer corpse to the Village street. That would necessitate the Village to remove it. We accomplished that by hiring two area day workers and lo and behold, the deer remains were removed by the Village from North Main Street within the hour. As I completed this letter on Monday morning, four days after we reported the dead deer, three railroad right of way staff arrived to remove the dead deer. They assured us that they had just received the order to remove it that morning. Too late! Thanks to the State of New York Wildlife Association and the East Hampton Village we are again able to enjoy our grounds. But, we are still waiting for the railroad to call us back to apologize and send us back the $60 we paid to hire people to do their work. My co-existence with the LIRR is over I am appalled by their neglect, lack of responsibility and mismanagement of a workforce that cannot even answer a phone during the workday. Hopefully, this letter will bring some attention to their irresponsibility. Sincerely, Nancy Liebman East Hampton Cutbacks? —DR Email your letters to askdan@danspapers.com

I said hello to a few people I knew, then I combed part of the beach and since the waves were strong, I found some beautiful newly arrived shells and am starting a new collection.

SIDEDISH

See what’s cooking now.

Where to save while dining out.

By katey mccutcheon

t was a surprise that Jeff Negron became a gardener, shortly after graduating from Northeastern University with a degree in criminal justice. Negron reflects, “I was pretty lucky to have parents who were into gardening, but as a kid I wasn’t into it. Now it’s funny that that’s what I do to make a living.” Negron’s business, The Growing Seed, is unique in that it specializes in designing and maintaining kitchen gardens. He says, “My mission is to connect small gardens to large gardens to create a community to talk about food and experiences.” His business filled a void for restaurants and individuals on the East End. “Well, I felt that there was a need to start to spread the word and the business started out simply and word of mouth was my advertising, and that led me to other restaurants. The first restaurant I worked with was Estia’s Little Kitchen,” Negron says. He now maintains gardens for Southfork Kitchen and the soon-to-open Topping Rose House, among others. It’s not all fun and games. Negron explains that gardening is more of a science than most people think. “The tough part now is each restaurant has a different need. Timing is a key part of it, it takes time to understand what the restaurant needs and it takes communication on both ends, planning and scheduling to put together a garden for the first year. It takes one full season to work out the kinks, the pains, and the changes. The second season shows

more results.” The communication between himself and the client he’s working with is imperative. “I think it really depends on the restaurant’s thoughts for the crops. Everything the restaurant doesn’t want to grow has to be supplied from other gardens. That part takes scheduling and planning to put the two together to get the most benefits. This part is the most overlooked; it’s not a no-brainer. It takes an understanding on both sides.” In all of Negron’s gardens he forbids pesticides. This can put a damper on the appearance of the plants, and restaurant owners are not always understanding. But the produce is healthier for you and the environment. When asked about the disadvantages of not using pesticides Negron explains, “Blemishes on the crops, visually it starts to affect the final presentation of the meal at a restaurant. Arugula is difficult to grow without pesticides because of hole damage, it doesn’t affect the taste, it’s just the appearance. Appearance is a disadvantage; it takes more labor to remove pests, or to amend the soil. It’s hard to explain to the owner of a restaurant why the produce isn’t pretty, but really its more organic and better for you.” Negron commented, “I actually don’t have my own garden, I’m a lifetime renter. I love going to farmers markets though. If I did have the space to grow, I would grow basic herbs because they don’t need much maintenance: parsley, oregano, sage, cilantro, and basil.”

Meet the Restaurant Gardener: Jeff Negron

Negron tries to use his bike more than his car. “I have five jobs in Bridgehampton and that’s where I live, so I bike to those jobs because I can. Jobs in East Hampton and Amagansett, though, I can’t bike to them because I have to bring so many supplies and tools.” “I try to be as self-sufficient as possible. I try to live sustainably with my own daily practices. In the garden I use group irrigation, rain cap systems to help collect falling rainwater. The idea of living fully sustainably is a great idea but tougher to fully execute. There are times when I have to get things done so I have to be in the car.” You can follow jeffnegron@growingseed on Twitter or call 631-655-3031.

Restaurant Review: Cooperage Inn f you’re looking for a casual and inviting place to have a delicious brunch this Sunday, you need look no further than Cooperage Inn. Located in beautiful Baiting Hollow, Cooperage is the perfect setting for brunch with your sweetie, a bunch of your girlfriends, or with the whole family! Each guest receives a complimentary Bloody Mary or Mimosa – I chose the refreshingly bubbly Mimosa – and it teased my taste buds in anticipation of the sumptuous meal coming my way. The extensive buffet includes all of your favorite breakfast items, from scrambled eggs to pancakes, but it also includes a couple other treats for you breakfast lovers. First is the omelette bar, manned by Chef Corey this past weekend. You can choose from a variety of ingredients – peppers, onions, tomatoes, an assortment of cheeses and other omelette goodies – and Chef will prepare Plate #1. it right in front of you while you wait. I was definitely in the mood for an omelette, and I chose onions and feta cheese to go into mine. I love onions with just about everything, but I had never had feta with my eggs – and oh, my! The onions were slightly sweet from their initial sauté in the prep kitchen and the feta melts ever so slightly and becomes this salty, creamy element that was heavenly. Chef Corey can also make you a Belgian waffle, if you’d like, and this week’s waffles were covered in a delicious raspberry sauce – yum! On the buffet line, I grabbed some of my favorites – crisp bacon, savory sausages, and roasted-to-

G. Horsburgh

perfection potatoes. I couldn’t pass up a taste of Cooperage’s French toast, served alongside warm maple syrup. The toast was crisp on the outside, and the inside was warm and decadent. A surprise on the buffet line came in the form of one of my alltime favorite breakfast dishes – Eggs Benedict. The poached egg retained its runny yolk center, to my surprise, and the hollandaise was rich and creamy, not at all oily as some tend to be. Cooperage had an impressive and beautiful fresh fruit display, but I was intrigued by their fresh juice options – particularly the watermelon juice, which I found to be exceedingly refreshing and not at all too sweet as I was expecting. Other brunch items included a whole roasted turkey, carved in front of you by the chef, rigatoni a la vodka, Caesar salad, an array of fresh and cooked vegetables, a variety of salads, seafood and pasta…the list goes on. All of the food looked inviting and most importantly, it looked fresh and delicious! Of course, we must not forget dessert – and you will be glad you didn’t, because the dessert served at the Cooperage Inn brunch is second to none. I enjoyed their famous bread pudding, which was rich, creamy, decadent and just plain good eats. The homemade rice pudding disappeared quickly from my plate. I nibbled on chocolate-covered shortbread, gingersnap bars, pecan cookies, banana chocolate chip scones, strawberry shortcake, apple pie…It was all so good. My compliments to Cooperage’s obviously talented pastry chef. At $24.95 for adults, $15.95 for kids ages 5-10 and $5 G. Horsburgh

Putting Scallops to Bed Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s old is new again. My cookbook, Cooking at Cooktique (Doubleday) is slated to become an e-book. I was so pleased when my agent made arrangements for this to happen, as the book, published in 1985, is so TODAY! Reading every word of text and through every recipe to make whatever adjustments are needed to update, I was elated to find so much material that works for todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cooking and dining pleasure. Cooktique is the school and cook shop I founded in 1976. Opening chapters include the basics from stocks to demiglace. The soup chapter followed with such currently familiar recipes as herb butternut squash bisque, carrot soup with orange juice, curry and crĂ¨me fraiche, Tuscan bean soup, and on to salads boasting endive and grapefruit salad with mustard vinaigrette, radicchio, leek and chevre salad, mesclun salad with poached egg â&#x20AC;&#x201C; hey this was 1985! I could go on and on, and when I ran across carrot and parsnip puree, I happened to have purchased a bunch of gorgeous sea scallops. I seared the scallops and served them over the vegetable puree for dinner and my husband asked why we couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get anything like this in a restaurant. I completely forgot about spinach fettuccine with scallops and basil cream sauce â&#x20AC;&#x201C; when I ran into it, the reason I bought the scallops in the first place. Oh my, did we eat well that night too. Sea scallops are one of the jewels of our local seas. Get to your nearest and dearest East End fishmonger

and treat yourself to one or both of the following recipes. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be glad you did. SCALLOPS ON BED OF PARSNIP AND CARROT PUREE Local sweet scallops with farm fresh parsnip and carrot puree yielded this irresistible dish. Serves 4 as main course or 6 as first course

vegetables through a food mill or puree in a food processor or blender. Can be prepared up to one day ahead and refrigerated in a suitable container. When ready to serve transfer to a saucepan, add crĂ¨me fraiche or cream and nutmeg and stir to mix. Keep warm over low heat, stirring occasionally while scallops cook. Taste for salt and pepper.

3. Rinse and dry scallops well with paper towel. Dust scallops with flour seasoned with salt and pepper. Heat butter over low heat in a sturdy non-stick skillet, when butter foam subsides, allow pan to heat up over medium heat another minute or so for a good hot sear, and put the scallops in the hot pan to sear for 1 1/2 minutes on one side and 1 minute on the other side until golden brown, Season with salt and pepper to taste and remove from heat. 4. Divide the vegetable puree on 4 to 6 plates and top with 3 to 4 scallops, depending whether first or main course. Sprinkle with chopped parsley or chives and serve. SPINACH FETTUCINE WITH SCALLOPS AND BASIL SAUCE Serves 4 to 5 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided 2 tablespoons finely chopped shallots 1/2 pound large sea scallops, side muscle removed, and sliced in half crosswise (Contâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d on next page)

Restaurant Review: Zum Schneider pening a Zum Schneider outpost in Montauk may be, according to Sylvester Schneider, the stupidest thing he’s ever done – who wants to bring their work with them on vacation? But considering this lament was delivered by the restaurateur whilst imbibing at the bar surrounded by friends, we don’t feel so bad for him. The idea of an authentic Bavarian restaurant in our sleepy fishing village-slash-hipster haven had raised a few eyebrows since rumors of Zum Scheider’s arrival began to surface this spring. At first, we thought it might be another ridiculous stunt crafted by a billionaire hotelier or a Brooklynite trendsetter. Our collective local conscience breathed a heaving sigh of relief when we realized that no, it’s just Sylvester Schneider, the soccer-playing Oompa band-leader who is as truly German as the food he serves. There is plenty of beer at Zum Schnieder, which translates roughly as “at Schneider’s,” and this has been the focus of most of my previous visits. Schneider is so hooked on the authenticity angle, in fact, that any and all alcohol imbibed – or food for that matter – is German in origin. I love a good German beer, particularly when it’s served in an oversized mug almost too heavy to hold, or in a flight alongside a few other beery friends. Needless to say this place had captured my heart even before I made friends with some of the staff on a late night bar crawl earlier this season. The beer hall atmosphere at Schneider’s is a refreshingly welcome delight – Tilefish and other local favorites grace the specials chalkboard with decidedly German flare, but the main menu is strictly Bavarian. According to our lovely server Anat, the chef,

Local coffee tastes better.

Another favorite was the Dermont’s husband Dan for this review. His parents light, crispy potato pancake served with applesauce, live in Germany and he has been itching for a good which Anat insisted we try.

Beautiful homes sold this week.

Bargains on the East End.

Meet Alan Schnurman

“

It’s always a good time to buy good real estate,” said Alan Schnurman, Real Estate Broker and Senior Vice President of Saunders and Associates. Although he is one of the newest members of the Saunders team, Schnurman has been purchasing, developing and selling noteworthy properties in the Hamptons for more than 25 years. After retiring from the law firm he co-founded, Zaleman Schnurman & Miner in New York, where he spent almost 40 years as a trial attorney, Schnurman found it difficult to adjust to “retirement life.” So, after a short retirement (or perhaps extended vacation) he decided to pursue another lifelong passion – REAL ESTATE! Smart real estate investments have provided Schnurman and his family a great life, and it’s apparent when you talk to Alan -- he loves sharing his strategies. Schnurman is truly a fountain of information for future investors, buyers and sellers. A few of his past projects are quite substantial, including the development of a 42-acre farm on Hedges Lane and the development of a 26-acre parcel on Ocean Road. “I bought my first property in the Hamptons in 1986 for $416,000 and sold it in 2006 for over $3 million. Our first home, a brownstone in Park Slope, was worth 80 times the value I purchased it for in 1976. I always buy in the same areas, but I like to diversify. I advise people to buy what they know.” Whether it’s commercial property, land or residential, he believes

Celebrity Homes in the Hamptons By kelly ann krieger

HHH37/flickr

elebrity is synonymous with the Hamptons. From Billy Joel and Sir Paul McCartney to Steven Spielberg and Jerry Seinfeld, the A-List of the rich and famous goes on. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not surprising, the Hamptonsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; beautiful, sandy beaches and elegant real estate offerings are attractive to many including celebrities. Whether theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re buying, selling or renting, the market has definitely taken a few unpredictable turns in the last few years. Recently in the news, reality star, author and model, Kelly Killoren Bensimon dropped the price of her Further Lane, East Hampton home for a second time. Killoren Bensimonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s original asking price of $12 million was slashed down to $8 million and then again to $6.999 million. The five-bedroom property has also been available for rent the past few seasons and is the perfect Hamptons retreat. This elegant 1.2-acre Hampton home boasts 5,800 square feet of Hamptons charm. The home offers five bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths, a formal living room with a fireplace and French doors, a luxurious master bedroom with a fireplace and private terrace, a state-of-the-art kitchen with an open floor plan leading to a spacious dining area and a family/ entertainment room. Additional amenities include: vaulted ceilings, rustic wood beams, powder room, spacious den, extensive decking and the option for an additional guest room. In addition, the landscaping is impeccably designed and maintained as well with a Gunite pool and garden pond. For more information on 125 Further Lane visit www.Prudential Douglas Elliman.com. Billy Joel finally took his oceanfront home in Sagaponack off the market this January after dropping the asking price down to $16.75 million from the original price of $22.5 million. Joel bought this oceanfront beauty in 2007 from actor Roy Scheider, during Joelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s marriage to Katie Lee. After their split in 2009, he decided to put it on the market. Since then, Joel has had a change of heart (about the house, Kelly Killoren Bensimon of course) and opted to hold on to this lovely gem. Designed by television host and celebrity designer, Nate Berkus, this 5,500 square foot home offers, four bedrooms, six baths and spectacular panoramic views of the ocean. Not too shabby. Unfortunately divorce usually leads to one or both parties opting to sell their home or homes, unless they can come to an amicable agreement or had some sort of prenuptial agreement in place. For actor Kelsey Grammer, this was a costly lesson. Many, myself included, witnessed the 13-year marriage of Kelsey and Camille Grammer crumble before our eyes on reality television and in the tabloids â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it was not a pretty picture. After all was said and done, and things seemed to be anything but amicable, they decided to move forward with the division of property with their Hamptons home at the top of the list. The Grammersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; 8,000 square foot home located in Bridgehampton offered seven bedrooms, seven baths, a master suite with fireplace, sitting room with private porch, a guest house, tennis courts, home theater, gym, steam room sauna, heated pool, wine cellar and

elevator. Everything and anything you could ever want in a Hamptons home â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all nestled on 1.7 acres of sprawling open land. Luckily, the home was priced right at $10 million with Sothebyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long for someone to buy it for $9.95 million at the end of 2011. On to the next home in the Hamptons for Grammer. Celebrities like to indulge and the Hamptons provide the perfect playground for living in luxury. Lavish galas and fundraisers are everywhere in the summer on the East End and celebrities are more than happy to participate. Some may choose a low key and inconspicuous lifestyle, while others prefer to be living out loud and celebratory. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not at all uncommon to run into big names dressed down at the local grocery store, farmers market or gym. The realm of lifestyle possibilities is endless here in the land of the rich and famous.

Sharing the Best Ideas in Medicine with You

OUR EXPERT ANSWERS YOUR QUESTIONS

Stony Brook Medicine integrates all of Stony Brook University’s health-related initiatives: education, research and patient care. We believe in sharing knowledge not only with the next generation of care providers but also with our community.

hildren and Heart Disease: What Parents Need to Know

They may sound like some of the scariest words a parent could hear: “Your child may have a heart problem.” But rest assured, the vast majority of suspected heart problems in children can be ruled out, thanks to today’s imaging technology available to perform these evaluations quickly, safely and noninvasively. There is one caveat, however. No matter how good the equipment, it is only as effective as the skill of the person operating it. Beating hearts are notoriously difficult to image, so it takes a highly trained physician to perform and interpret the exam. Stony Brook Children’s has found just that expert in Dr. James Nielsen, the new Chief of Pediatric Cardiology. Internationally known for his breakthroughs in pediatric cardiology imaging, Dr. Nielsen addresses some of the most common questions parents have about evaluating heart disease in children.

What heart diseases do you evaluate in children?

We have the capabilities and expertise to diagnose all heart problems in children. There are, in general, two categories of heart problems: congenital and acquired. Congenital heart disease is a problem that one is born with, such as a valve abnormality or a “hole” in the heart.

Acquired heart disease can develop any time in life, for example, inflammation in the heart (rheumatic heart disease or myocarditis) or an electrical problem (arrhythmia). Frequently, children and adolescents who are having common symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, racing heart (palpitations), problems with exercise or shortness of breath, are referred to us out of concern that there might be a dangerous heart condition. In addition, some children who participate in athletics require cardiac evaluation prior to sports participation. We are typically able to exclude a major dangerous problem with a quick clinic visit and a few noninvasive tests. For early diagnosis, we perform fetal echocardiograms during high-risk pregnancies or other circumstances to detect potential problems in utero. Identifying cardiac problems before birth allows for appropriate planning for a safe delivery and education of the parents, as well as planning for potential lifesaving surgery for the newborn.

How are suspected heart conditions in children evaluated?

At Stony Brook Children’s, we have a new state-of-the-art pediatric echocardiography laboratory at our outpatient clinic location that provides the very latest technology in an accessible, soothing and family-friendly environment. There we can perform ambulatory EKG, heart rate and rhythm monitoring,

echocardiography, 3D echocardiography and fetal echocardiography. The visits always start with a comprehensive evaluation by our pediatric cardiology clinical team. If further evaluation is needed, we can perform and interpret a number of tests on site. When needed, additional testing — including cardiac MRI, cardiac CT, exercise stress testing and transesophageal echocardiography — is available at the hospital.

James Nielsen, MD Chief, Pediatric Cardiology Stony Brook Long Island Children’s Hospital

pulmonologists and neonatalogists, along with the advanced resources of its Neonatal Intensive Care Unit and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit. Because Stony Brook Children’s is such an integral part of the fabric of the community, children with lifelong problems can receive continuity of care without ever having to leave Suffolk County. And, when they grow up, the staff can transition them into the equally advanced resources available to adults at Stony Brook Medicine.

Are these tests safe? Absolutely. They are noninvasive, pain-free and nearly all radiationfree. Some can be performed in just minutes on an outpatient basis.

What distinguishes Stony Brook Children’s pediatric heart imaging program?

Besides having the most up-to-theminute technology, there are two things.
