Scenes of the local devastation, 1938.

Catastrophe 73 Years Ago the Hurricane of ‘38 Flattened the Hamptons By Dan Rattiner On the morning of September 21, 1938, the telephone rang at the home of Trevor J. Davis, on Dune Road, Westhampton Beach. “Hello, Mr. Davis?” “Yes, this is he,” Davis replied, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes. “Mr. Davis, this is the post office. We have a C.O.D. package for you. It’s 11 dollars and 55 cents.” “Is it from Chicago?” “Yes. Sears Roebuck, in Chicago. It’s about a foot square.” Dan Rattiner’s second memoir, IN THE HAMPTONS TOO: Further Encounters with Farmers, Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires and Celebrities, is available in hardcover wherever books are sold. The first memoir, IN THE HAMPTONS, published by Random House, is available in paperback. A third memoir, STILL IN THE HAMPTONS, will be pubA Dan's Banner legroom:Layout 1 5/23/11 3:37 PM Page 1 lished next spring.

“Oh, well that’s my new barometer. I’ll be down to pick it up after breakfast.” “We’ll be open all day. Goodbye, Mr. Davis.” “Goodbye.” Trevor thought for a minute how nice it was that old Mr. Baker would take the trouble to call him that a package had arrived C.O.D. But then he remembered that he had told Mr. Baker he was getting a barometer, and Mr. Baker said he’d be interested in seeing it. Trevor decided he’d probably open the package right there at the post office and they’d have a look at it together. No reason why not. Trevor changed from his silk bathrobe into his summer whites, and went downstairs to the kitchen. He was alone, having left his servants in the city with his wife and children, and he was roughing it. Camping out in his summer home. For company, as he was making breakfast, he turned on the radio and tuned in the New York station he always favored. ...Came down the way in what was surely the most thrilling launch of all time.

nine thousand tons, nearly 900-feet long, the beautiful new Queen Elizabeth struck the water with a splendor and a grace that few thought possible. Nearly 20,000 people attended the launching, including the King, and American Ambassador Joseph Kennedy. The Queen Elizabeth is at present steaming from her launching site on the Clyde to the Thames River and London Harbor where an even greater welcome is planned. Meanwhile, across the Channel, there has been an amusing edict from the Reichstag in Berlin. In the future, according to the Nazi announcement, all persons wishing to greet the Fuhrer must refrain from throwing flowers. The Fuhrer’s cheek was scratched, according to the announcement, by the thorn from a wayward bouquet of roses as he was… It was nearly noon when Trevor pulled his Packard up to the post office on Main Street. A light breeze had sprung up and he noticed that the sky was getting quite dark. There was also an almost sticky warmth to the air. Setting his brake, Trevor hopped down to the street and (continued on page 17)

Flooding Solution Why Not Get the Oil Companies to Drill a Hole a Mile Down? By Dan Rattiner The flooding from Hurricane Irene is still playing havoc in New Jersey, upstate New York and New England and I’ve been thinking. Why not drill deep holes a mile down into the ground, directly into the aquifer? We could use the well drilling equipment the oil companies use. If it’s two miles down drill two miles down. If three miles down drill three. The oil companies do it all the time. We could locate these holes in low-lying areas so when torrential rains come, the water flows down from the hills into the low-lying areas to overflow the sewer systems, and then into the holes right into the underground aquifers way

Hurricane

down. I know, this is a crazy idea. But just last week, the president was sploshing around hipdeep in Paterson, New Jersey, surveying the damage there. If there were one of these holes, he’d never have had to do that. Or, since this is a low-lying flood-prone area he could get choppered in ahead of time, just in time, and get taken out to where the hole is and raise the cap to get things started. In my idea, which I have thought through, there has to be a cap that has to be raised. If there were no cap, and it was just a big hole, people or dogs or small children going out for a fly ball could fall into it.

I’ve considered different kinds of caps. I considered a reverse sprinkler system cap, which would automatically open up whenever rain hit it. But there are too many nuances for that to work. I’ve considered screw-on caps and caps that open like garbage can lids where you step on a lever on one side and the other side opens, but you’d have to have child-proof systems in place. I considered press a button and an electric motor raises the cap, but that won’t work either, because often the electricity goes out during a flood. What I finally came up with was a cap designed the same way we have kitchen sink

measure the pressure in the air. Generally speaking, when the pressure is high, the weather is good, and when it is low, the weather is not good.” “What’s the pressure on an average day?” “Oh, about 30. I’ve seen it rise as high as 31, and do you remember that storm we had last year? The pressure dropped to almost 29. Or so they said over the radio.” Trevor undid the last of the wrapping and took out the barometer. It was in a beautiful mahogany case and had a shiny glass frontispiece through which you could see the dial of the instrument It read 28.3. “This is strange,” Trevor said, looking at the peculiar reading. “Maybe it is stuck.”

He tapped it a couple of times with the palm of his hand. But the dial stayed resolutely where itwas. “What’s the matter?” Mr. Baker asked. “Well, this barometer reads 28.3. And there’s no possible way it could read that low. There must be something wrong with it.” Mr. Baker began picking up the wrapping and the box, which it came in. He was trying to be helpful but he had no idea what he was looking for. He just shuffled things around. “Maybe there’s a piece missing?” he said. “No, it’s all of a piece. I think we just got a bum barometer. It’s not like Sears and Roebuck, but I guess it happens to the best of us.”

walked around the car into the post office and up to the counter. “Here ‘tis,” Mr. Baker said, setting the package out almost before the bell had stopped jangling on the door. “Got here in just five days. Pretty good time from Chicago, if you ask me.” Trevor gave Mr. Baker a 10 and a five, and Mr. Baker gave him back the change. “I think I’ll open it and have a look,” Trevor said, with just the trace of a smile. “Certainly wouldn’t want it if it were defective.” “Certainly not,” Mr. Baker said, leaving off everything he was doing and giving the package his full attention. “Now, you were asking me how one of these things works,” Trevor said as he undid the string. “Well, what the barometer does is

drains where you lift and twist to close it, or lift and drop to open it. I thought of this while doing the dishes the other night. The cap would have to be much larger than one of those drains. You wouldn’t want to go to the expense of digging two miles down just to have something on the top the size of a kitchen sink drain. It would have to be at least six feet in diameter to make any difference, from what I have seen of the water flooding down the hills on the videos. You wouldn’t need any flood holes here in the Hamptons though. Our problem in a hurricane is not so much flooding as it is storm surges. The storm comes, it pushes the water in front of it into a huge mountain just offshore and then unleashes it onto our ocean beaches in one great monster surge. Here in the Hamptons, we’d have to have these storm holes on the ocean bottom, two miles out. I think they could be a mile apart, but they’d have to be 20 feet in diameter for what I have in mind. One hour before the storm hits, authorities press a button on all these giant remote control garage door openers, and deep on the sea bottom giant steel lids raise and the sea water rushes down toward the center of the earth in a great gurgling unseen torrent. We’d have to have environmentalists working closely with the authorities on this. Sea level will drop pretty quickly during this operation. You don’t want it to go down too much, but you want it to go down enough so that when the surge comes it is, well, maybe four inches.

So it’s an art. How long do the lids stay open? Twenty minutes? An hour and a half? They’d have to have practice sessions ahead of time. Practice makes perfect. A surge of just four inches would be a triumphantly perfect amount to have happen, and there could be celebrations by the oceanfront mansion homeowners, with people yelling yahoo!! and they nailed it!! And so on and so forth. I’ve talked about all this to politicians, to government officials and to environmentalists. The politicians tell me it would take years to get this through Congress. The government officials say: with so many cutbacks, who would they pay to man these switches? And the environmentalists say: do you really want to flush down into the aquifer all those foam coffee cups, beer cans, soda bottles and other crap that is currently littering the countryside? And I say yup, it’s better down there than up here. And I say think of all the millions of jobs that would be created to make this all happen. You think this can’t possibly happen? Think about Holland. They built dikes centuries ago. Think there were naysayers back then saying it was not possible? You bet there were. Now I admit there is one problem with all this. And it is this—every time that you, dear reader, see a flood in a road blocking your way you are going to imagine one of Dan’s rain holes down in the center of it busy starting up to slurp it all back down to the center of the earth. But no such thing is going to be there. Too bad.

Fencing it Off Zweig fence on Georgica Beach

This Beach in Front of My House is Mine, Everybody Else Take Note By Dan Rattiner A family named Zweig last week had a contractor put a series of steel posts into the sand on the beach in front of their oceanfront home just two houses west of the entrance to Georgica Beach. The posts go from the cliff at the back of the dunes, across the beach toward the ocean to a point about halfway to the surf, turn 90 degrees to continue on parallel to the ocean for 100 yards or so, then go back up the beach to the cliff. They basically follow what the Zweigs say are the boundaries of their oceanfront property from the dunes to the surf marked by pre-existing concrete boundary monuments in the sand to prove it. The enclosure, which the Zweigs say will soon be fitted with snow fence, will define the area where their sand was taken away by the storm. They intend to buy new sand from truckers and

thereby restore it. But the fence will also keep out any sunbathers and beachgoers, something that the Zweigs apparently feel is not their problem. For miles and miles in both directions along the beach from this arrangement of metal poles, there are private homes which, like the Zweigs’, lost tons of their beachfront sand to Hurricane Irene two weeks ago. You don’t see one single property in either direction whose owner has fenced off the beach like this. Idoline Duke, whose family owns the house just to the west of the Zweigs, had been out on the beach, talking to Zach, the son of Mollie Zweig, as he measured out where the proposed enclosure would go, explaining that this can’t be done, that it will block not only the Duke’s access to this part of the beach and everybody else’s, but also the Duke’s view, which at certain

times of the year includes the sun setting over the ocean. But the Zweigs, in my opinion, seems to have that millionaire mentality, which says if you buy something worth this much money, you can fence it off and do pretty much what you want inside of it without regard to everybody else. The fact is there are many things about the Zweigs’ property, your property or my property, which are regulated by the authorities. On your own property, whether you like it or not, you cannot shine a bright light into your neighbor’s home. You cannot land a helicopter on your property. You cannot put a cesspool on the side of your house next for your neighbor’s house. You cannot play music too loud on your property. You cannot build on your property a fence more than six feet high facing the (continued on page 22)

MY TOP FAVORITE SUMMER POLICE BLOTTER ITEMS By David Lion Rattiner Scam artists, pirate hangings, sharks and even a turtle with a nail through its back were all stories that happened in the Hamptons in one of the most bizarre summers for crime that I can personally remember. Here are some reports from this past summer that kept us all captivated. On June 15, the strangest car accident in the history of the Hamptons occurred when a Mercedes SUV crashed directly into the Carvel on Route 27 in Bridgehampton. The driver of the vehicle mistakenly hit the gas instead of the brake, crashed into a Lexus and then headed dead center into the Carvel. Nobody was injured and no charges were filed, but a lot of Carvel fans were upset because the store had to close down for a few days to take care of the damage.

In a sting that is fairly common in the Hamptons, six bartenders were arrested for serving alcohol to minors after police hired an undercover agent to crack down on underage drinking. The irony of the whole incident? Two of the six bartenders were under the age of 21. On September 5, police received a call from a woman, apparently drunk, who said she saw a man hanging dead from a rope at the Puff & Putt Miniature Golf Course in Montauk 40 feet up. The man turned out to be a statue of Captain Jack Sparrow climbing up a rope. The woman apologized, and the firemen and the police that responded breathed a bit of relief and also, reportedly, laughed at the incident. Things were very serious August 21 when a man who was brandishing a handgun and who was suicidal barricaded himself inside of his home in Sag Harbor. Police had a standoff

for 90 minutes before it was finally determined that the gun he was using was of the BB-gun variety. Remember the woman Nydia Vega who paid over 20 different people in the Hamptons with fake checks, used 17 different aliases and told people she was a rich heiress with an inheritance of $100 million. Well, she was sentenced finally this August and will be in jail for the next two to four years. The Hamptons went crazy in early June when beaches shut down because a few shark fins were spotted in the water. Only these weren’t the scary sharks that eat people, but completely harmless basking sharks. But just because the word shark could get in the headline, the entire nation heard about the (continued on page 29)

By Susan Saiter The words “agony and the ecstasy” might best describe this year’s Hampton Classic Horse Show. Scheduled to open on Sunday, August 28, that wicked Hurricane Irene swept in like a bad fairy not invited to the party. As the hurricane charged toward the East End, Hampton Classic officials frantically cancelled, rescheduled, re-cancelled, and re-rescheduled as they tried to figure out just how long and how bad things would get, alerting owners to not bring their horses to the grounds until Tuesday. In preparation, they hastily tore down the 1,600 stalls and the trademark billowing striped tents, along with the VIP seating and exhibitor spaces. As it turned out, two days of showing and unknown dollars for charity were lost before the first horse entered a show ring on Wednesday. Attendance for the week was down by 15,000 from the usual 50,000. “We don’t know yet what the losses might be,” Emily Aspinall, vice-president of the Hampton Classic Board, said the week after the show ended. “I still have a whole pile of bills to wade through.” After the deluge, as the East End dealt with layers of leaves looking like they’d been through a paper shredder and downed trees hanging on power lines, Classic officials quickly regrouped. Shanette Barth Cohen, Executive Director of the Hampton Classic, said, “Our staff and crew turned out in force on Monday morning and everyone pitched in to do whatever needed to be done. ” And by Sunday, a shimmering summer sun reigned over the Grand Prix field as McLain Ward, of Brewster, New York, made history when he won the $250,000 FTI Grand Prix and FEI World Cup Qualifier. It was the sixth time the two-time Olympic Gold Medalist had come in first at the Grand Prix, this year on 11-yearold gelding Antares F, owned by Grant Road Partners, LLC. While some numbers were down, those of VIP attendees were not. Hampton Classic President Dennis Suskind welcomed a full house of guests that included Mayor Michael Bloomberg. The Mayor’s appearance was a pleasant surprise to some because his daughter, Georgina, was not riding in this year’s Grand Prix because of a back injury, and because the Mayor had just held a press conference in New York on the controversial resignation of Deputy Mayor Stephen Goldsmith. Meanwhile, down the rows of beautiful tables laid out for luncheons, polo star Nacho Figueras held court with fans and posed for photo ops. Does he ever get tired of having his picture taken? “No, never,” he said. Is he going to take a break from riding now that Bridgehampton Polo season is over? “Of course not.” In two weeks, he said, he would be off to Argentina for the rest of the year to ride on. While most people in the VIP sections came early so they could people-watch before they horse-watched, not everyone was there for a leisurely day. For example, the table of Alvin and Patsy Topping, of Swan Creek Farm in Bridgehampton, sat empty until the last minute. Family and guests had been working at one of many other events that sometimes

get eclipsed by the Grand Prix. In another ring, they had just awarded the Swan Creek Farms Perpetual Trophy to Christina Kelly, whose horse, Creata Van Ten Biesen, had won the Junior Jumper High Score Award. And then, leisure doesn’t always equal laidback. Part of the fun of watching the jumpers is the tension as horse and rider approach the fence. Even seasoned horse people, like the Hildreths of Hildreth’s Home Goods, can find things a bit nerve-wracking to watch. Colleen, wife of Henry Hildreth, sitting in front-row seats with her children, confessed, “I enjoy it, but I get so scared for them out there. I have to wonder if horses are really meant to do this.”

street and more than four feet high facing the neighbor’s yard. You cannot bury industrial waste on your property. You cannot build a hog rendering plant on your property. (People in the Hamptons will be amused to know that in many town ordinance booklets this specific thing is mentioned as something you cannot do.) And I don’t know, I think it is probably illegal to sunbathe naked on your property in full view of people off your property, although I may be wrong about that one. Here on the ocean, where the good Lord might taketh away one million tons of sand from your property and sail it out to sea in 45 minutes, you are free to buy one million tons of sand and have it trucked onto your property to replenish what was lost. (You also might wait for a storm

to bring the one million tons of sand back, which is what most people do.) But you cannot hem that sand in with permanent structures to prevent some of it from spilling onto somebody else’s property, or back out into the ocean. Also on the beach, you cannot prevent people from walking along the sand across your property to get from point A to point B. Surfcasters have the right to drive trucks from one point to another. If a seal were to slither up onto the beach on your property it is not suddenly yours, and if you think it is and take charge of it, you can get a big fine from the environmental people. You also can’t build a building or other structure on your beach or dune. In some ways, what the Zweigs have already

done here seems to come under the heading of self-inflicted wounds. The wooden ladder that comes down to the beach from their home is now piled high with sandbags that presumably the Zweigs put there, maybe to keep the ladder up during the storm, or, just possibly, to keep people on the beach from using it. But now not even the Zweigs can’t use it. As for the view from their home, it looks out at the very poles they have erected. They see the inside. Everybody else sees the outside. Four years ago, the biggest oceanfront land purchase in the Hamptons took place in East Hampton Village when Wall Street veteran Ron Baron bought a 40-acre parcel on the ocean from Adelaide de Menil and her husband Ted Carpenter for $103 million. After the purchase, Baron built a six-foot-high, 504-footlong concrete wall—which he called a retaining wall—parallel to the ocean and a hundred yards inland from it, right on property he owned, but still in the dunes between his home and the ocean. The town ultimately forced him to jackhammer the wall out because it was in “protected” dunes. The authorities of the Village of East Hampton have already visited Mollie Zweig. So has a representative from the State Department of Environmental Protection. I don’t know if the Town Trustees have been down there, but one would expect they will be soon. The trustees defend the right of the citizens to have free and unobstructed passage up and down the beach. The Village defends the right to have no hard structures built on the beach and to have free access up and down the beach for emergency vehicles. They also defend coastal zone hazard laws and dune protection laws. And the DEC has to approve other things that might in some way impact the environment. I am not sure whether the local authorities have the right to come in, even with a warrant, and tear out the steel poles, although maybe they do, in extreme occasions. I know they have gone onto private property—after many warnings were given—to clean up junk that is just left around by a property owner in a way that is a blight on the neighborhood. What they can surely do is issue fines for violations, and I have seen villages out here send ordinance officials out every day to issue summonses to the effect that yes, the violation that was ticketed yesterday is still going on today. (They did that to a foreigner who in the middle of downtown Southampton, kept goats, sheep, geese, roosters and chickens in his yard. I wrote, objecting, but they did it anyway.) These fines can quickly spiral into very large sums. Hopefully, the Zweigs will come to see that they simply made a mistake in not finding out what the laws are, and will take out these steel posts. If they don’t do that and if this matter drags on and on in court for years with these metal poles sticking out of the landscape, it’s my opinion that the Zweigs may become unpopular with the people in town. The first indication of this came from a sign in front of Idoline Duke’s house that says, “The Beaches Belong to the People and My Beach is Your Beach,” written in both in English and Spanish. * * * As we go to press, we have learned that East Hampton Village has issued several summonses (continued on page 24)

Candidates: Steve Bellone By T.J. Clemente Babylon Town Supervisor and Democratic Party Candidate for Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone wasted no time in answering the charges of his opponents that he was a liberal taxand-spend Democrat who is not being truthful about his tax record. He told me in a recent interview, “I won my last two elections with 73% and 74% of the vote. What the other side is saying about my record is an insult to the voters of Babylon and to their intelligence. In my 10 years the Town taxes on the median home went up around $140.” With his voice at a strong pitch he went on to say, “Listen, Angie Carpenter is a good person,

I like Angie Carpenter but she just doesn’t have the executive experience I have.” The story of Steve Bellone is one of a Babylon Town Supervisor so popular he has run virtually unopposed in his last two elections. He and his backers believe that speaks volumes about his integrity, his ability to lead during difficult times and his executive capabilities. When I met him in Sag Harbor I was surprised by his youthful energy and his poise. In a follow-up phone call he said, “We need to make Suffolk a more affordable place to live once again—whether you want to retire, raise a family or start a business

a hand, not gets in the way.” She said she is taking aim to create a county government “that will have a sustainable economy without peaks and valleys.” When asked about the reality of spending cuts, Carpenter called herself, “fiscally conservative but not fiscally irresponsible.” Her plan to do more with less is to cut some of the bloated administrative positions, not so much the “jobs of the people who actually do the county work.” She thinks a second look is needed at the synergy of the Economic Development Department and the Department of Planning. She even has some ideas about exploring a countywide way of helping towns cope with school costs. When I asked Carpenter about her comments about Steve Bellone’s taxing record she said,

“ All I know is that I met a Mrs. Rago who is 84 and lives in [the Town of] Babylon, actually Copiague. This woman showed me her total collected Town taxes for 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011. In 2008, she paid a total of $8,400. Then, in 2009, it was about $9,000. In 2010 it jumped to just under $10,000 and for 2011 it was just around $12,000. We just can’t have this go on.” I mentioned a big part of the taxes are Town school taxes and Carpenter said that is true but, “something has to be done.” When asked why it is important to the average Suffolk Country voter that she defeat Steve Bellone, she said, “He has no Suffolk County Government experience while I have 13 years between the County Legislature and being Suffolk County Treasurer.” So I asked her

to expand on her qualifications and tell me her story, since she wasn’t a household name on the East End. This was her reply: “During my nearly 13 years as a member of the County Legislature [two as the body’s Deputy Presiding Officer], I can point with pride to my record regarding the East End and its issues. Beginning with my advocacy and co-sponsorship of the resolution providing a police medevac helicopter for the East End, to my consistent support for farmland preservation and open space acquisition, I have always understood the vital role the East End plays to the overall wellbeing of the County. This understanding certainly made it easy for me to support revenue-sharing with the towns and villages on the East End in particular.” Continuing about her record for the East End she said, “As a steadfast advocate for Suffolk County Community College, I consistently supported capital projects for the Riverhead campus, thwarting efforts of other west end legislators who didn’t feel an East End campus was necessary. I co-sponsored the resolution for the construction for the Culinary Center in downtown Riverhead. This public-private partnership has been a huge success, bringing another cafe into the downtown along with an incredibly popular culinary program that has exceeded enrollment projections...after two years this program has more students than were projected or hoped for in year five.” And if Carpenter wins, what will she do moving forward for the East End? She replied, “This commitment to the East End will not only continue, but be enhanced, when I am elected County Executive. I plan on restoring the East End office of the County Executive in the Riverhead County Center to better service the needs of East End residents. My vision for Suffolk is for a county that works together. As County Executive I can be counted on to put people first...take the lead in creating and implementing a regional vision for sustainable economic growth...establishing a real jobfriendly environment for Suffolk County.” In concluding, besides telling me she is 100% Italian (maiden name Angie Linarello), Carpenter also said with almost a noticeable chuckle over the phone, “Elect me Suffolk County Executive and keep Steve Bellone doing that good job in Babylon.”

to the Zweigs for violating a Village stop work order. Both Mollie Zweig, the homeowner, and Bob Sullivan, the contractor of the fence, have been ordered to appear in Town Justice Court on October 14. Last Thursday, the Village issued a stop work order because the project needed permits under state tidal wetlands and coastal erosion law. But on Friday, the contractor was seen out there putting steel extensions on the top of the new steel poles, which meant he was not complying with the order. The reason the extensions were being put on, it seems, was because the sea was already beginning to wash back the sand that the hurricane had taken out, and if that continued, the steel fence posts already in the sand would soon be buried entirely in the sand and no longer be visible. Hmmm. For those interested in following this story further, there is a Facebook page called “Friends of Georgica Beach” that can be accessed.

Neighbor By Nanci E. LaGarenne She is beautiful in a natural, unassuming way. She is a family woman, playing with her boys, Alexander Pete, 4, called “Sasha,” and Samuel Kai, 3, called “Sammy,” in East Hampton at the beach, and swimming with her sexy husband, the actor Liev Schreiber. She is an award-winning actress with darn good acting chops. She is goodwill ambassador to UNAIDS., raising awareness worldwide about AIDS issues. She addressed a gathering of leaders and stars in 2009 at the Washington Square Memorial, commemorating World AIDS Day, and spoke about the “stigma of AIDS,” according to www.UNAIDS.org, and how people should “not be blamed for their illness.” She traveled to Zambia “to draw attention to the socioeconomic impact of H.I.V. on women and girls.” She is lending her hands to another cause for the March of Dimes for healthy pregnancies and babies. The March of Dimes has teamed up with Destination Maternity—celeb moms will embellish a pair of maternity jeans to be auctioned off at www.biddingforgood. com/celebs4maternitydenim. Bidding ends September 22. Naomi Ellen Watts was born on September 28, 1968, in Shoreham, Kent, England to Myfanwy Edwards and Peter Watts. Watts’ mother is Welsh, a former antiques dealer, now a costume designer and stylist for television commercials. Her father, who died in 1976 when Naomi was 8, was the English road manager and sound engineer for Pink Floyd. It is Pete Watts’ maniacal laugh you hear on the Dark Side of the Moon album tracks “Brain Damage” and “Speak To Me.” Naomi moved with her mom from South Wales to Australia. Her brother is photographer Ben Watts. The 1980 film, Fame, was the catalyst for Watts’ acting bug. Her mother enrolled her in acting lessons and she was in good company with fellow North Sydney Girls High classmate Nicole Kidman. A little modeling, a job as Assistant Fashion Editor at Follow Me Magazine in Sydney and a drama workshop— the rest is history. Watts’ star is blazing at fever pitch right now. She has four movies coming out in the next year. Watts has stellar co-stars and her leading

3. Still in production is Impossible with Watts and Ewan McGregor (hello!), a film about the 2004 Christmas Tsunami in Thailand. Next April, get ready for Watts onscreen again in Movie 43, previously titled Untitled Comedy, a series of short comedy segments with a star cast. Her breakout role was in the 1986 drama For Love Alone, based on the best-selling novel by the same name by Christina Stead. This led to John Duigan’s indie film, Flirting, in 1991, after director Duigan spotted her at Nicole Kidman’s Dead Calm premiere. Watts starred in Australian mini-series “Brides of Christ” about “a girl who struggles to find friends behind the walls of a Sydney Catholic School,” according to Australian Television Archive. Four episodes of a popular Aussie soap, called “Home and Away” followed. Duigan again cast Watts, this time in Wide Sargasso Sea, a prequel to the book and movie, Jane Eyre. And then a lull for Watts. Until Matinee, Tank Girl and finally Mulholland Drive, the David Lynch film in which Watts was nominated for Best Actress from the AFI, among others. And don’t forget King Kong. My personal favorite is The Painted Veil, starring Watts and Edward Norton, along with her hubby, Liev Schreiber, in a dramatic story of an illsuited marriage and infidelity, based on the 1925 W. Somerset Maugham novel. Maybe you loved 21 Grams, or Eastern Promises with Viggo Mortensen (does she have the best co-stars or what?), Mother and Child with Annette Benning, The International with Clive Owen, Fair Game with Watts as C.I.A. agent Valerie Plame and her husband played by Sean Penn, or the philosophical comedy I Heart Huckabees with Dustin Hoffman and Jude Law. Maybe all of them, and why not, she is a pleasure to watch onscreen. Talent, beauty, generous spirit, grace; a rare combination in Hollywood. Watts has not stopped once she found her stride and aren’t we glad for it? Watts is a star that is burning ever so brightly. Shine on—you have our attention.

men are equally hot. Coming out September 30, she stars in Dream House, a thriller with Daniel Craig and Rachel Weisz where Watts plays a neighbor to the “dream house,” which becomes more of a nightmare. Next is J.

Trevor picked up the rest of his mail, which consisted of a single bill from the Westhampton Liquor Store, and opened the door to walk out to his car. It was quite windy now, and a light, warm rain was falling nearly sideways, rustling the leaves in the trees. Trevor put his hand on the brim of his tennis hat, ducked his head into his shoulders and ran the 20 feet to his car, laughing. This was a rough kind of weather that he liked. Weather that came down from the heavens, that let you know it was there. It was, in fact, the reason heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d purchased the summerhouse on the beach 10 years before, and the reason heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d purchased the barometer. Trevor started the engine to his car and drove down Main Street. Twigs and small branches were flying across the road, and a few merchants could be seen rolling up their awnings. Turning left on Stephenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lane, Trevor was surprised to see that a good-sized tree had fallen down on someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lawn. There was also a deck chair blowing across the road in front of him. Trevor slowed down to let the deck chair pass, and rolled up his window to stop the wind from whistling. He turned left again onto Jessup Street. The wind was stronger and the Packard was rocking from side to side. And then Trevor looked up and could hardly believe his eyes. The water in the bay had risen. It was so high, in fact, that it was washing across the Jessupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Neck Bridge in front of him. He would be unable to cross the bridge to get to Dune Road beyond. Trevor stopped his car and stared. His jaw dropped. Across the bridge, on Dune Road, where there had been a good twodozen houses when heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d left, including his own, there was nothing. Trevor rubbed his eyes. There was no fog. He could see the sight crystal

clear. A few roofs, a door, a window jutting up here and there. The sea had inundated Dune Road. It had met the bay. There was nothing for him to drive home to. Trevor Davis, still in his tennis whites, turned the Packard around and drove it quickly through the mounting storm to the Howell House Hotel. It was the strongest structure he could think of. And it was already filling with refugees. * * * It is impossible today, looking back at the incredible catastrophe that was the Hurricane of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;38, to imagine how unprepared the eastern end of Long Island really was. But it was the case. As a natural catastrophe, larger than any that had ever struck the world in a decade, the hurricane built in its ferocious intensity in the North Atlantic and the people of the East End woke on the morning of Wednesday, September 21, 1938, as if it were just another day. In Montauk, the 26 fishing families that lived in the picturesque cottages on the arc of Fort Pond Bay awakened to a peaceful day. As there had been a possible storm predicted the night before, a storm which apparently was not going to materialize, the fishermen as a group chose not to go out, but instead, to spend the day mending their nets and enjoying their families. By nine oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock in the morning, the smell of coffee pervaded the air, wafting down the single dirt road of the village, past the schoolhouse, the post office and the Union News Restaurant building to the small fleet tied to the docks. In the Hamptons, time, then as it is now, was measured in seasons. This was the third week after Labor Day, and, although there were fewer visitors out here than there had been the week before, there was still a goodly number of summer people.

HAMPTON BAYS

Week of September 16-22, 2011 Riders this week: 8,841 Rider miles this week: 17,411 By Dan Rattiner DOWN IN THE TUBE Paris Hilton was seen riding the subway last Thursday from Southampton to Water Mill. She said she’s here visiting her parents and sister. President Obama and Vice President Biden took the subway from Southampton to Westhampton last Friday after stopping here to survey the hurricane damage and then took Air Force One to points unknown. Sarah Palin of Hampton Bays was seen going down the escalator in that town to the platform, but then turned around and went back up saying she’d forgotten something. COMPANY PICNIC AT BIG DUCK PARK A bring-your-own picnic was held in Flanders at Big Duck Park last Saturday for all company employees of Hampton Subway to say goodbye to this year’s bevy of summer employees who worked as “pushers” on the platforms during rush hour to keep the passengers moving on and off the trains. About 100 people attended including spouses and children, (which was why it was bring your own—you can’t expect the company to feed everybody) and a good time was had by all. The “pushers” are a feisty bunch, mostly college age, and at one point, at the end of a softball game, but before horseshoe pitching, a fight broke out between a couple of them, but they soon calmed down. DELAYS DUE TO NEW TRACKAGE A 20-minute delay took place on the Southampton – East Hampton run on Wednesday morning when new experimental tracks was installed on a stretch between Southampton and Water Mill which supposedly would get rid of the screeching noise made by the wheels when trains make the sharp turn coming around Mill Pond. The tracks did get rid of the noise but riders quickly complained of the “budda budda budda” noise the trains made instead, along with some peculiar shaking for a few seconds and said they preferred the old noise so please bring it back and so the experimental tracks were swapped back out in the afternoon, resulting in another 20-minute delay. We apologize for all this. WI-FI BACK UP BUT YOU MAY NEED HELP The Wi-Fi system on the subway is back up but many people still can’t use it because they don’t know the new password. The old password, which was neanderthal, all lower case, was removed and the new password, all upper case—this is case sensitive—is TERADACTYL but please don’t tell anybody this because it is supposed to be a secret unless you are a rider on the subway. PROPOSAL TO NAME SUBWAY CARS APPROVED By a vote of 4 to 3, the Board of Directors of Hampton Subway have voted to have all the subway cars be named on their sides in small

white letters. It’s felt that giving the subway cars names might help riders feel more soft and fuzzy about using the subway. It doesn’t change anything on the front of the subway. So the big letter A on the subway train still stands above the motorman’s window indicating that the train is the A train, which of course all trains are. There is only one line after all. There are 39 subway cars in all, stored at the Montauk Yards every night behind barbed wire to keep them graffiti free. We invite

employees and friends and readers of this newsletter to submit names. Just send them to subway@danspapers.com. So far, we’ve had two suggestions. One, for our oldest car, a 1934 Third Reich Mfg. Co. Saloon model from Germany, was submitted as “the old gray mare.” A new model made by Toronto Subway Mfg. Co., in Canada has received the suggestion of “Phantom Flyer.” You don’t need to know the manufacturers of the other cars to enter. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE I am proud of how we handled ourselves this summer through all the trials and tribulations from the tornado in the spring to the earthquake in July to the Hurricane two weeks ago. None slowed down the subway. My hat is off to our employees. Bravo.

their summerhouses—and most had come with their servants to get on with the bittersweet occupation of folding and packing and closing down for the winter. In the Hamptons, this was the heyday of the “cottages.” There were nearly 1,000 of these magnificent summer homes lining the beach from Amagansett to Dune Road, Westhampton Beach, each with 20 or 30 rooms, and each habitable only 15 or 20 weeks of the year, due to a complete absence of any heating system. The economy of the Hamptons had, in fact, been built on the popularity of the cottages, occupied as they were by the cream of New York society, with their attendant lawn parties, servants, clubs, shops and stables. And so, as that fateful day dawned, few persons imagined that the day would be anything else

than expected—a day to buy some furniture covers, go out to the beach, if the weather was willing, perhaps take the kids to the matinee at the Edwards Theatre in East Hampton. Up on the North Fork, the day also began as any other. In Southold, the farmers were busy getting the potatoes out of the ground. At Greenport, dozens of tourists “just happened” to walk down the pier to get a look at the magnificent Vanderbilt yacht tied up there. The boat was on cruise and the Vanderbilts were in residence. There was a beautiful wind indicator mounted on a porthole which could measure winds up to 150 miles per hour. Out at Orient, at 8:30 that morning, the first load of cars made their way aboard the ferry for the cross-sound trip to New London.

Perhaps the single most unusual event that peaceful morning was the arrival of Mr. and Mrs. Phineas J. Clipp at their summerhome in Georgica, East Hampton. Mr. and Mrs. Clipp pulled up that morning in their dusty, chauffeur-driven Lincoln, and what was unusual about their arrival was that they had left East Hampton for their winter home in Palm Beach two weeks earlier. Workmen were scheduled to board up the East Hampton home for the winter in just a week or two. Mr. Clipp stepped out of the car and stretched his arms as far as they would go, smoothing the wrinkles in his blue blazer. He walked around to the other side of the car and let his wife out. It was good to be back in East Hampton. The leaves were still on the trees, and, except for the pervading sense of peace and quiet, it might as well have been summer. The black chauffeur stepped out of the car, and he stretched too. It had been an exhausting drive. They had left Palm Beach—they told their friends there that something had come up unexpectedly—and they had driven for five straight days, spending nearly 12 hours each day cooped up inside the Lincoln, to get back to their summer place in Georgica. The chauffeur walked around to the trunk and began to unload the bags. There had not been very much packed really. Just enough to last for 10 days, by which time the hurricane, which was expected to strike the coast of Florida would have passed and it would be safe to drive back to Palm Beach. * * * The Hurricane of 1938 had begun to form in the Atlantic about 500 miles off the coast of Miami. It swirled in the classic counterclockwise pattern, and according to the telegraph message from a steamship, which had inadvertently ventured into the storm, the winds were blowing at about 80 miles an hour and rising. The steamship pulled clear of the storm and the Miami weather bureau issued a marine alert to all ships at sea, fixing the longitude and latitude of the storm, and urging all vessels to stay away from the area, or not to venture out at all, if possible. Nothing was heard further about the storm for three days. But then, a second telegraphed message came in, this time from a Panamanian freighter, which encountered the storm 170 miles from the coast of Miami. The Panamanians had swung to the west of the storm, and by steaming at a full 15 knots, had slowly been able to get away from it. They estimated the hurricane was traveling due west, straight for the coast of Miami, at a speed of 12 miles an hour. The weather bureau wasted little time. STAND BY FOR POSSIBLE HURRICANE WARNINGS was the order for the day, on Friday, September 16. The newspapers carried the warning front page, together with an interview of a weather bureau official, who said the city might be getting as much notice as a full week, but there was really no way of telling. Miami had had its share of hurricanes. It experienced a devastating storm, without warning, in 1926, and another storm, with (continued on page 30)

TWENTY SOMETHING by David Lion Rattiner

I had sort of a Larry David Hamptons moments last week. I was on 27 East, driving from Southampton to Bridgehampton, when I found myself trailing an absolutely gorgeous Ferrari. I’m pretty sure it was a 459 Spyder and I could tell that the guy driving it really enjoyed owning a Ferrari because he’d let the guy in front of him drive ahead and then he’d rev the engine and race a few hundred yards to catch up with him. There was just one problem with this guy: his back right tire was low on air. I kind of wondered what I ought to do about it. This guy obviously had a lot of money, and from what I know about rich people, they don’t like to be told what to do and they don’t like to be told that something is wrong with them. I figured that I could easily ignore the whole thing and not say anything to the guy, but I had a “what would Larry David do?” moment, and it occurred to me that he would absolutely say something. And so by the time we got to the Candy Kitchen in Bridgehampton, I decided to say something and pulled up next to his Ferrari in my Pontiac and gave him a bit of a head nod. He rolled down his window. “Hey, Your tire is low,” I told him.

“Which one?” “The back right one.” I pointed. I was expecting my moment of regret where he tells me to go F myself. He was your classic rich guy driving a Ferrari: in his early 50s, wearing sunglasses, losing his hair but it didn’t matter, and tan skin. I could feel his blood pressure going up. He was thinking, WHO THE HELL IS THIS GUY? DOES HE KNOW WHO I AM!!!??? I saw all of this run through his eyes in half a second, and then he looked at me and nodded and said something to me, which I found kind of shocking. “Thanks, buddy, I’ll get it looked at right now.” “Beautiful car,” I said. “Thanks.” Not all of the rich guys are complete @$$holes to locals. Thank you, Mr. Ferrari guy, and I hope your tire is fixed. * * * I’m a huge Jets fan, and last night’s win against Dallas was satisfying enough, but I expected them to crush Dallas and not for it to be such a nail-biter. I’m also a huge fan of Rex Ryan and Revis, but I just can’t stand it when Mark Sanchez has to be down by 10 points in order for him to get focused and show us the Mark Sanchez that we all like to see. I have a solution to this. Rex Ryan needs to tell Mark Sanchez to begin games pretending that they are down by 10 points. Mark plays at his best when the Jets are losing. If somehow, though, through the power of the Internet and Google Search, either Mark or Rex is reading this, I think if Sanchez mentally told himself when the game starts that they were losing, he would play better. * * * Lastly, I’ve got to touch on Obama’s “job creation” plan. We don’t need more government

spending that can’t be paid for, and stop pretending like it can be paid for when it can’t. Anybody who thinks that this job creation plan isn’t a code word for QE3 isn’t living in reality, and both the Republicans and the Democrats need to get their heads on straight about how serious a problem the currencies are in.

news. Reports on the “shark” sightings were up on NBC, Fox and CNN and prevented a lot of people from enjoying their summer vacation. We at Dan’s Papers did our best to straighten out that there was absolutely no danger to swimmers. Hurricane Irene came and went with pretty much a whisper, although all of us acted like Katrina was coming to get us, and Long Island was going to sink into the ocean. The big news about Irene ended up being that it wasn’t really news. A turtle in Sag Harbor was discovered in July with a nail driven through its back. The turtle was discovered by a homeowner, who brought it to the Wildlife Rescue Center, but a HUGE manhunt went out to find the person who purposely drove a nail through an animal’s back for what appeared to be for fun. The case has never been solved, but the turtle has been well taken care of at the Wildlife Rescue Center. And then finally, there was the massive brawl that broke out in Southampton on September 8 that included over a dozen people when clubgoers began throwing chairs and fighting with one another, forcing police to use pepper spray to disperse the rowdy crowd. It’s been quite the summer, let’s hope it keeps a little bit more quiet for the time being.

warning, in 1936. The city immediately began making preparations, boarding up windows, tying everything down, bringing everything possible to high ground. Two days passed. STAND BY FOR POSSIBLE HURRICANE WARNINGS DURING THE DAY, the weather bureau repeated on Sunday. On Monday, the proclamation was this: HURRICANE WARNINGS WILL PROBABLY BE ISSUED TONIGHT. But none came. The skies were clear. The hours passed. There was not a trace of the storm. At eight a.m. on September 21, the weather observatory at Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, recorded winds of 56 miles an hour. The speed of the winds was high, but not unusual, and

nothing peculiar was thought of it. Within two hours the winds had subsided. We know today, from piecing together the fragments of information available, that the Hurricane of 1938 had grown into a monster in both speed and size. From its rather normal beginnings off the coast of Miami, the hurricane had swung to the north, and began to pick up speed in a manner unknown either before or since. Most hurricanes travel at a predictable pace of between 10 and 13 miles an hour. Even in the 1930s, when weather prediction was in a relatively primitive stage, it had been known that this was the case. But this particular hurricane, its winds increasing in intensity to 100, then 120, then 140 miles an hour, began

6994

to increase its forward motion, until, when it passed off the coast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina, it was moving at a speed of nearly 40 miles an hour—about as fast as a good freight train—and it was quickening. No one knew it at the time, but the cause of this phenomenon was a peculiar, and in itself unique, high-pressure zone, which stretched like a broad curtain on a north-south axis up the North Atlantic Ocean, ending only in the cold air patterns of Canada. The hurricane had started on a more traditional westerly direction—toward the Miami coast—and then it had suddenly locked into this high-pressure curtain shifting its direction to the north and northeast. Up the coast it came, feeding on the high-pressure curtain, growing on it, devouring it. Up it came, as if it were sucked up a gigantic vacuum tube, until the storm had developed a violence never before experienced along the Atlantic Coast. The storm covered the 1,000 miles between Cape Hatteras and eastern Long Island in just over 11 hours—the eye passed over Westhampton Beach—traveling at the incredible speed of 90 miles an hour with winds of perhaps 160 miles an hour. It slammed into the coast here at a little after four o’clock in the afternoon, and due to its great speed, had passed in less than 120 minutes. Furthermore, by an unbelievable coincidence, the storm slammed into the land almost precisely at high tide—a fact which worsened things a dozenfold. The attendant tidal wave had the benefit of nearly 20 feet of additional high water. And it was a two-story, building-shattering wall of sea that literally swept parts of eastern Long Island clear, and cost the lives of nearly 800 people in the Northeast. Yet, from the moment the storm was last seen, off the coast of Miami on Friday morning, except for the brief notation at Cape Hatteras, nobody at the weather bureau or anywhere else had any idea where the Hurricane of 1938 actually was, such was its speed. On Tuesday at noon, the residents of Miami were reading in their newspapers that the storm had very likely blown out to sea. Yet just 24 hours later, the residents of West Dover, New Hampshire, were picking up sheets of paper in the village square which turned out to be the court records from the Town of Southampton, thrown two states to the north by the violence of the storm to waft down on that peaceful village in southern New Hampshire. The weather bureau never forgot the Hurricane of 1938. The storm caused a revolution in weather-tracking methods, and the introduction of both weather ships and weather aircraft never used before. The bureau has never lost a storm since. * * * It was at about 2:30 in the afternoon of that Wednesday that the residents of Montauk knew a catastrophe was building. The winds were howling at over 50 miles an hour, and the sky was getting darker by the minute. Out at the little fishing village on Fort Pond Bay, the normally peaceful waters of the Bay had risen to a frenzy. The boats rocked angrily at their docks and masts and spars cracked as they banged and splintered against one another. More alarmingly, the level of the bay had (continued on page 32)

CLASSIC CARS by Bob Gelber

The other day, during a heavy rain, I opened the door to my house and realized that I had forgotten to lock the car. I was about 50 feet from the car and with just a click of the car key remote I locked the car. I thought to myself, now THAT’S a great invention. Some great thinking has advanced automobile convenience over the past decades coexisting with some really stupid concepts. Here are some random thoughts. Remember the “Your door is ajar” recording that would remind you of impending doom. I don’t know about you, but it drove most everyone crazy. Good riddance. Some current cars also have seatbelt warning buzzers and klaxons that drive one crazy. They shout much too loudly “Fasten your seatbelt or die.” I have noticed the more expensive the car, the more tasteful the seat belt warning signs. Isn’t the flashing light on the dash enough? Speaking of seatbelts, remember when they were motorized and would travel around the window frame like a lasso? I remember the old 1980s Mercedes Benz 500 SEC coupe had an electric seatbelt that would reach for you from behind the seat. The first time I encountered this device was on a dark night in a deserted

parking lot. It scared the hell outa me! Deserted parking places remind me of a really silly device Volvo has been touting. It tells you, when entering your car, if a heartbeat has been heard inside the vehicle. If there is a zombie or a vampire hiding in the back seat I guess it’s useless. On second thought, maybe this device should be required for every car, because the way I’ve seen some people drive, I wonder if they’re brain dead. Speaking of brainpower, what’s with this expensive and complicated new option, “parking assist”? Some manufacturers are starting to offer this parking feature. C’mon, if you can’t park the thing, don’t drive. What next, “drive assist”? The blind spot warning system is also silly. True, it could be a great lifesaver, but it is also an expensive and complicated accessory. I’ve said for years that the driver’s side mirror should be convex (wide angle), just like the passenger’s. Simple and effective. By the way, the driver’s side mirrors on most new cars in Europe are convex. Are the drivers in Europe smarter than us, only they can figure out that the reflected objects are “closer then they appear”? Here’s some good stuff. I owned a rather radical-for-the-time 1961 Citroen ID19 sedan that would jack itself up if you had a flat. Early 1950s Jaguars had a button on the dash that you pressed to see if oil was needed. Early Porsches and Volkswagens could actually never really run out of gas because

they both had a small lever under the dash that you would twist open. It was connected to a small auxiliary tank under the main one. (Quite necessary on the VW because it didn’t have a gas gauge.) New cars being built today have stunning horsepower and fuel economy when compared to cars just built a few years ago. Four-cylinder engines, some supercharged or turbocharged, have the same horsepower or exceed recent six- and eight-cylinder engines. Electric propulsion is also here to stay. The only downside to all this technology is that it will certainly add complexity to all future automobiles. I just hope the good ideas of the future outweigh the poor and annoying ones. To all you car collectors, hold on tight to your vintage iron. There will never be anything else like them again. Why even the current state-of-the-art Ferrari and Porsche-type legendary motorcars will indeed be primitive vehicles in 30 years. Actually, when you really think about it, a mundane Toyota Prius or Chevrolet Volt are truly probably two of the most exotic cars in the world. Food for thought.

Hurricane

risen to a height never before seen in memory. Ten feet over the high water mark, the waves crashed at the top of the beach and with two more hours to high tide, it was apparent that the little village would shortly be inundated by the sea. Men raced around desperately trying to tie things down. The womenfolk, at the insistence of their men, had run with their children to the railroad station some 100 yards further on high ground and, after brief discussion with the stationmaster, boarded the heavy steel passenger cars of the Long Island Railroad at rest in the switchyard. THE WEATHER BUREAU IS ISSUING SEVERE GALE AND HIGH TIDE WARNINGS FOR EASTERN LONG ISLAND was the last message received over the radio in Montauk before all the power went out. Then the sea came over the beach. In the unearthly whine of the 100-mile-an-hour fury, there was no sound of buildings moving from their foundations, of fishing boats crashing into schoolhouses. Viewed from the windows of the railroad cars, the whole scene, the destruction of the village of Montauk, had an almost slow motion quality about it, as if a silent film were being run at half speed, slowly, deliberately, but with a certainty that no power on earth could stop. The menfolk of the village arrived at the railroad cars and clambered aboard. There was nothing further they could do. And what was, hours before, a peaceful and picturesque village of several hundred people was now packed in wonder, inside six cars of the Long

Island Railroad, witnesses to the greatest local catastrophe of our times. In East Hampton, at about three o’clock, the arms began to blow off the windmills, taking off like paper airplanes high into the sky. Some of these arms were found over 40 miles away, others were never recovered. Along Main Street, the great elm trees, the pride and glory of the town, swayed in the wind and then began to fall. The last of the children from the Edwards Theater, ushered out the front door when the power failed, crossed Main Street just 20 minutes before the stately old giants began to go. One fell in front of the Baker and Lester Hardware Store, smashing in the roof of a sedan. Another fell in front of the Gardiner House, pulling down the power lines with it and setting off a series of sparks and flashes. Only two days before the Ladies Village Improvement Society of East Hampton had met to consider the care of these elm trees for the coming year. Receipts from the annual Village Fair had been less than the year before and the women had to consider how to make do with fewer funds. Now the trees were going. Crashing in that strange silence one after another. Before the day would end, a total of 139 of the elms, by actual count, fell across Main Street and Woods Lane to the west. The storm increased in intensity. The wind indicator aboard the Vanderbilt yacht, rocking violently at its berth in Greenport, registered 140 miles an hour, then 150, then burst in an agony of tiny springs and gears. It was four o’clock. The eye of the storm,

racing irrevocably up the North Atlantic highpressure tunnel, came closer and closer to the shore of the East End. And then it was high tide, a moment in time, dictated by a disinterested moon, and the ocean came over the land, inflicting the greatest damage of all. From Montauk to Fire Island, the big summer “cottages,” built along the top of the dunes, began to fall apart into sections. Some just burst into tinder, following the force of the sea, so much driftwood, toward the centers of the tiny villages inland. Amagansett was visited by window frames, shutters and storm windows. Southampton Village saw bits of front steps, garage doors and light fixtures. Westhampton Village, inundated with over six feet of seawater downtown, hosted, among other things, a complete bathroom, including curtains, toilet paper in place, and even a rug on the floor. All of this debris seemed to stop when it reached the downtowns, three to six miles inland, for this was as far as the force of the tidal waves would carry it. Other homes along the beach, simply lifted off their foundations and floated, some of them whole, others in sections, like giant life rafts, carrying bankers and stockbrokers, maids and chauffeurs, swirling in the violence of the sea, to the safety of such landing sites as golf courses, well inland. The section of Dune Road from Quogue to Moriches took the worst of it. At 4:15, the howling wind, moving at an incalculable speed, (continued on next page)

There were occasional patches of sunlight. A warm rain, almost hot, like a tropical shower, bathed the area like water on a wound, and the people emerged from their homes, slowly and cautiously, to see what they could make of what had recently been their lives. * * * One of the first edicts, at the conclusion of the storm, was issued by the Ladies Village Improvement Society of East Hampton. It read: Do not uproot stumps. A stump may bud out in the spring and look better than you dream possible. Preserve your picket fences. Next to trees, our picket fences have given East Hampton an air of distinction. Do not throw them in the woodpile.

Contact the Ladies Village Improvement Society (Mrs. Sterling Fitzer) if you know where any elm trees are available in this locality. Trees from away are not wanted, as Eastern Long Island is free from Dutch Elm Disease. Up at Sammis Beach, Springs, in East Hampton Township, a group of eight FrenchCanadian sailors peered out from under an 18-foot dory they had been hiding under. The men had taken refuge under the dory on the beach after their 110-foot Schooner, Jean and Joyce, filled with coal and bound for New York, had foundered on the beach. The sailors, (continued on next page)

sent the sea roaring across the dunes a full three floors high. Virtually everything went before this onslaught. And what had been a thriving summer community of 179 “cottages” along the beach, came suddenly and violently to an end. It was the height of the storm. The spire on the magnificent Whalers’ Church in Sag Harbor, built nearly 100 years earlier by the whaling men to a height of 19 stories, the highest structure on the East End, fell with a silent, slow motion quality into the burying ground next to it. In Amagansett, the Amagansett Presbyterian spire went down. The Amagansett Bathing Pavilion was swept away, and to the east of town, the Barbour Restaurant and Surf Club in the fledgling development of Beach Hampton, disappeared without a trace. The Metro Theater in Greenport collapsed, and the fashionable St. Andrew’s Dune Church in Southampton fell into ruins. Out in Long Island Sound, the New London Ferry found itself stranded. The docks at both Orient and New London had been swept away, and the captain, Sherman, of this ship, the “Catskill,” learned over the radio that there was no safe place to go. With eight passengers and 10 autos on board, he headed full steam ahead through the whitecaps for New Haven. In a city of that size, SOMETHING must be available for docking. Literally dozens of people hung tightly to their roofs and were blown off Dune Road, across Mecox Bay and into Westhampton Beach or Quogue. Miss Mary Broadnax, 40, the maid at the summer home of Everett Tutchings of Manhattan, was the sole resident in the Tutchings “Cottage” on Dune Road. She was there packing the family’s things, when the house came apart at the seams. She climbed up the chimney hole and held onto the roof when the roof came off. Driven across Mecox Bay, she leaped to another roof that happened by when her roof broke up and sank, then, after getting in a bathtub, which seemed safer, but wasn’t, she got on still another roof when the bathtub sank and finally came ashore in a tree, where she was later rescued. At 4:15 p.m., at the height of the storm, the seismograph at Fordham University in Manhattan recorded earth tremors emanating from eastern Long Island. A technician observing the data, indicated that an earthquake was taking place somewhere near Westhampton. But in fact, it was later found that the instrument was just picking up the earth’s shock, the incredible reaction to surf breaking on a beach. * * * By 5:30 it was all over. The hurricane had roared through, its tremendous forward speed shortening its duration. The storm weakened with its violent impact with the earth at Eastern Long Island, crossed Long Island Sound, started fires in New London, flooded the Connecticut River and dissipated itself in the mountains of New Hampshire and southern Quebec. The winds at the East End, quickly losing their punch, reduced to gale force, and then just to occasional gusts, as the atmosphere in the wake of the storm attempted to adjust to the wrenching reality that had just passed.

dressed in their heavy blue woolens, walked single file to the nearest home, where they rang a doorbell. They were subsequently taken into town and cared for in the Masonic Temple on Newtown Lane. Most of the men were suffering from exposure. There was a good deal of humor exchanged immediately after the storm had passed. The people of eastern Long Island, walking gingerly through the jungle of green wreckage that blocked their streets, seemed hysterical, almost gay, in the catastrophe. A woman in Bridgehampton told how a traveling salesman had visited her house just prior to the storm. Stuck in her house demonstrating a take-apart vacuum cleaner, the man had sealed all her windows, run outside and pushed a tree away that was about to fall on her house, and did everything but save her life during the storm. But he left, and she never knew his name. In Westhampton Beach, a plumber by the name of Louis Green, employed at the Dune Deck, floated over on a roof to Oneck Point at the mainland. The Point, however, was a mass of green paint due to bursting barrels of paint, which had landed there, and so Louis Green walked into town covered with green. Candles were lit. Flashlights appeared as the sun set at the end of that eerie day. A story was told how two women had their car stall in the street in the middle of the storm. And as they looked around for a gas station, one just rolled up and stopped in front of them. A variant of this had the two women driving into

the gas station. The garage door opened and as they drove in, the rear wall blew out. “I think I’ve done enough damage,” the driver told the attendant, standing dutifully by the door. “I’ll try to get on home.” Some of it was true, some of it was not. A 25-pound bass was indeed caught on Main Street, East Hampton. And two cows were found in a Quogue pasture a good distance from home, and the only way they could conceivably have gotten there was to have been blown over a six-foot barbed wire fence, still standing. Most fantastic of all, and perhaps most macabre, was a pair of wooden legs found by Mrs. Sigrid Hortell of Port Jefferson. She found the legs at Tuthill Point and turned them over to police. The legs had shoes and socks on. Three days later the police returned the wooden legs to their owner, an unharmed Mastic resident who was having considerable difficulty without them. But there were serious things to consider as well. Of the nearly 200 homes along the 10-mile stretch of Dune Road, only 24 were still standing. All the rest had been swept away as if they had never been. There were people homeless, huddled in the hotels and public buildings, resting there with neither food nor water and all their possessions the clothes on their backs. And then, of course, there were the fatalities. Not as many as one might expect in a catastrophe of this size, but, nevertheless, exceeding 50, before the final count was in. The most pressing problem that afternoon was in the township of East Hampton. The

entire village of Montauk had been completely cut off from the outside world when the hurricane had begun. There was no radio communication. The Long Island Rail Road train, which had left Amagansett Station bound for Montauk, had been forced back when it reached Napeague. Napeague had simply ceased to exist, disappearing under the flood of seawater that linked Ocean with Sound. Town Supervisor Perry Duryea Sr., who happened to be a Montauk resident, was in East Hampton Village when the storm hit, and met that evening with Richard Gilmartin, another Montauker in East Hampton, to discuss what to do. They finally decided to requisition a tractor and did so at 3 a.m., making the trip across Napeague to the Island of Montauk. With them were Dr. Paul Nugent, a physician who could care for the wounded, and Ferris Talmage of the Springs, the tractor driver. It was a surrealistic trip, past fallen trees, through inlets and ponds, but at dawn, when they arrived at the fishing village, they were greeted with cheers by the 150 Montaukers still holed up in the railroad cars. There hadn’t been one single casualty, though the whole village was a shambles, and the fishing fleet destroyed. The sea had cut the slender South Fork of eastern Long Island in over a dozen places. There were three new inlets in Hampton Bays, a cut through Moriches Bay at Westhampton, through Mecox at Flying Point, and through (continued on page 36)

here. To do that, we need to create more good high-paying jobs, cut red tape, make government more efficient and transform it to focus on job creation. With my Innovate Suffolk economic vision, I want to partner our research institutions with entrepreneurs and have the next â&#x20AC;&#x153;Research Triangleâ&#x20AC;? take root here in Suffolk County.â&#x20AC;? He stressed he had a vision of â&#x20AC;&#x153;growing the economy and reforming county government.â&#x20AC;? So I asked him about the new reality of budget cuts, and this is what he said about doing more with less:Â â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over my 10 years in Babylon, we have significantly reduced the size of government, but today we are doing more than we have ever done before because we have made government more efficientâ&#x20AC;Ś like adding a centralized Town call center and installing GPS units in Town vehicles. I will look for ways to make government work better and more efficiently, but ultimately, the fastest way out of our budget challenges is by growing our economy.â&#x20AC;? Then I asked Bellone about the big-time taxing charges leveled against him, actually calling him â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big Tax Bellone,â&#x20AC;? by the Republicans and their candidate Angie Carpenter. He calmly stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153; The attack is simply false. The New York State Comptroller data indicates that Babylonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Town tax rate is in the lower half of towns in Suffolk County, something that was substantiated by an analysis by Suffolkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office of Legislative Budget Review requested by Newsday. The fact remains that Babylon residents have overwhelmingly supported me because of an excellent fiscal record of reducing debt every year, improving the Townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bond

Finally, I asked Bellone why it was important to the average Suffolk County voter that he defeats Carpenter. He paused, thought, and responded calmly, but with energy, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have 10 years of executive experience running one of the largest town governments in New York State with a track record of strong fiscal management.

Then he added, â&#x20AC;&#x153;She just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have the executive experience, period.â&#x20AC;? Bellone went on to say he plans on stopping the trend of young people leaving the county to find work and live; he mentioned this is a â&#x20AC;&#x153;critical juncture,â&#x20AC;? thus making the County Executive race this year a most important election.

Hurricane

(continued from page 34)

Sagaponack, Georgica and Hook Ponds in East Hampton. The Napeague was cut by an estimated 65 sluices. It is a testament to the intensity of this storm that in some areas the land was changed permanently. Along the Dune Road at Shinnecock, the government had been trying for years to blast an opening through the barrier of land separating Shinnecock Bay from the sea. Prior to 1938, one could walk or drive out the peninsula of land at the southwest extremity of Southampton Village and continue unhindered all the way to Westhampton Beach. The only outlet for boats in Shinnecock Bay was through the Shinnecock Canal to the Peconic Bay to the north. Dynamite blasts had been tried in the early 1930s and

dredging operations had gone on for years. But in early 1938, after considerable expense, the government simply gave the project up. It was too expensive and when they had gotten it open briefly, the sand had just closed it right back up. Well, the Hurricane of 1938 changed all that. By the morning of Thursday, September 22, a cut through the barrier reef, not where the government had been working, formed an outlet nearly a quarter of a mile wide. Water from the Bay was simply gushing out. This one cut, unaided by man, was formed by the storm, and it has remained open to this day, affording sea access for all the pleasure boats in Shinnecock Bay. There was another irony at Shinnecock.

LOOKING FOR A REAL SALE?

ANNUAL WAREHOUSE SALE

In 1934, the United States Coast Guard had declared the ancient and venerable Shinnecock Lighthouse to be “unsafe” and “unfit for future use.” Abandoning this structure, which had been built in 1846, they replaced it with a tall steel tower, atop of which they affixed the navigational lighthouse light formerly in the old structure. When the storm had cleared after the Hurricane of 1938, the old and “unsafe” lighthouse, 160 feet tall, still stood straight and tall. But the Coast Guard’s new steel tower had been shattered to smithereens. Undaunted, the Coast Guard subsequently built a new steel tower and dynamited the “unsafe” lighthouse to the ground, proof, that it indeed could not stand. At eleven o’clock that night of September 21, the people of the East End retreated to their homes, without lights, and in some places without water, and prepared themselves for the ordeal that was to be that incredible autumn. At midnight, the clock on the Bridgehampton Presbyterian Church steeple, one of the few steeples that survived the storm, struck the end of that terrible day. September 21, 1938 was no more. EPILOGUE Could a storm, such as the one that struck eastern Long Island in 1938, come again today? After having researched this article, largely in the East Hampton Public Library, I had an eerie sense that someday something like this could happen again. Walking out the front door at the end of my last day at the library, a breeze rustled some trees across the street, and I confess to feeling a terrible chill. Nature is a deceptive creature, and we don’t usually think of her as frightening. But to imagine the havoc she created in 1938—unannounced to be sure—but havoc, nevertheless, is to imagine a catastrophe that staggers the imagination. I have no doubt that some day, perhaps in the year 10,000 A.D., all that is built here on eastern Long Island will be gone. In the spinning of the wheel, given the odds, and given enough time, all will be as nothing, making a mockery of what we’ve taken so seriously over the years. But a hurricane of the magnitude of the storm of ‘38 is a rarity. It is on the scale of events comparable to the earthquake in Anchorage, Alaska in 1964, or the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami that killed 230,000 in 14 countries or the Japanese Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami this year. Natural disasters of this size can happen really anywhere. There is no one place that is any safer than any other. The smaller storms, the normal-sized hurricane of recent years, for example, we can weather without concern, spectacular as they might be. Perhaps with the Hurricane of 1938 safely behind us, we have a breather for a few more centuries. On the other hand, perhaps eastern Long Island is really marked. I’ve met many people, observers of the ‘38 storm who wouldn’t build near the ocean with a 12-foot pole with a six-inch extension. And yet, look at those brave souls building near the dunes today. It is, apparently, a matter of point of view. It’s crazy is what it is. But for a little while on the ocean, well, why not?

OVER THE BARREL

by Lenn Thompson

There are still tickets available for this weekend’s Harvest East End, a local wine and food festival – and it promises to be the local foodie event of the season. Last year’s Harvest East End was a fun, successful event that raised $60,000 for the Peconic Land Trust and East End Hospice. This year they’ve added Group for the East End as a beneficiary, and with more groups to support, they’ve expanded the programing as well – from one weekend to three. Organized by The Long Island Merlot Alliance and Long Island Wine Council, this year’s event will be presented by Food & Wine, replacing the Wine Spectator. Harvest East End actually started earlier this month with “Wine Salon” programs covering a variety of wine-related topics on September 3 and 10. Those salons continue this weekend in addition to the exclusive 10-Mile Dinners in private homes on Friday, September 16, and culminating in the

“Fall for Long Island Festival Tasting and Harvest Moon Gala and Live Auction” of Long Island Wines on Saturday, September 17, at Ludlow Farm overlooking Mecox Bay. As an added bonus, organizers announced recently that, as a part of the Fall for Long Island Festival Tasting, 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. on Saturday, September 17, Long Island winemakers will be pouring barrel samples of their 2010 reds. If you’ve been living under a rock and didn’t know, 2010 was as perfect a growing season as the island has ever seen – hot, dry and sun-filled. Reds from 2010 promise to be the region’s most intense. You can visit the event website (www.harvesteastend.com) for a full list of Salons, 10-Mile Dinners, and the Festival Tasting.

If, for one reason or another, you’d like to hear what I think about the state of wine and writing, I’d invite you to join me at a Salon event on Saturday, September 17 at 10 a.m. titled “Pen and Palate: Wine and Food Writers from Long Island.” In the talk we will attempt to answer questions like “What does it take to be a wine and/or food writer?” “How do they find the words to describe the flavors they encounter?” and “What is their benchmark for a successful glass or meal?” Bonnie Grice of 88.3FM WPPB will moderate the panel, which will include me, Michael Braverman (Hamptons Magazine), Amy Zavatto (Edible East End, Edible Brooklyn, Edible Manhattan, Every Day with Rachel Ray and more) and Erin Fitzpatrick (“Unfiltered” on Heritage Radio Network).

Suddenly, like the gleam of the sun off of a fishing line that just went tight, it dawned on everybody. Shopping. Labor Days Sales... shopping. It’s our only hope. The Town Board is debating approving a $500 Tanger Mall debit card, plus bus transportation, plus package carrying and purse-holding assistance, for every mother who turns herself in. We’re ready to shower the Island with fliers. The biggest surprise – even the kids are willing to pitch in. They’re all so sick of foraging for food in empty cupboards, they’re offering to clean the houses if the mothers come back. How’s that for a kicker?” “Holy moly! I never thought I’d hear that. We’re not going to punish the moms at all – you know – for abandoning their posts?” “Not necessary, returning home to take care of their bratty, unappreciative, smart-ass kids is punishment enough for anyone.”

THE SHELTERED ISLANDER by Sally Flynn

Where Is Your Mother?

Overheard in the Police Station on Shelter Island two weeks ago.... “How many does that make now, Greg?” “Thirty-seven. Thirty-seven Island mothers in hiding till school opens. Their kids are all running wild all over the place. The Dads are semi-comatose walking around their houses babbling, “Where is your mother?” all day. It’s a mess.” “Any chance they got off Island, Bob?” “None. We’ve had guys at the ferries checking all the off-bound cars for the past two weeks. All the private boats are accounted for and we’ve published a warning that any Islander caught aiding and abetting an Island mother to escape will have to take care of her children till school opens.” “Kinda stiff punishment ain’t it?” “Yeah, but we gotta take a tough stand. This is getting worse every year. Island kids don’t have a big fancy Youth Center, no movies, no book & cafe stores. They have absolutely nothing to do and if they get off-Island to have any fun, they have to make the last ferry at 2 a.m. or they sleep in the parking lots till 6 a.m. It’s tough being a teen on Shelter Island. The only fun they have is torturing their bratty younger siblings and their parents. Parents do the best they can. Some turn to alcohol and drugs, some hide in the woods till Labor Day.” “Hey, Bob, did anyone think of checking the deer

blinds?” “Yeah. We think lots of them are there, but we can’t seem to catch them. We used hundreds of melted-down Hersey’s bars to make chocolate licks to draw them out, but they just disappeared. We chained a couple of young handsome tourists to some trees with alarm bells on them, but in the morning, all that was left of them was their shoelaces and a lovely thank-you note. We think we may have thought up one idea that might work, but it’s very expensive.” “Whatever it is, we should do it. I’m tired of

Baiting Hollow Farm Winery

Saving beautiful horses at Baiting Hollow.

By Stacy Dermont As a young boy in Brooklyn in the 1930s, Sam Rubin always knew he wanted to work the land. After WWII the Army veteran married Rhoda, took agricultural classes and purchased land in upstate New York. The couple moved to Suffolk County in 1961 and eventually bought Baiting Hollow Farm on the North Fork. After experimenting with planting

Eighty-year-old Sam Rubin can be seen working in the fields today, and his son Richard still oversees the business side of things. In addition to wine, Baiting Hollow Farm Vineyard is also known for rescuing horses while lobbying Congress to stop the senseless slaughter of 100,000 horses a year, the vineyard has created three wines â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Angel, Mirage and Savannah â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in honor of rescued horses. Angel is a slightly bold oak-aged Chardonnay; Mirage is a red blend named after an Arabia. Its mixture is a Merlot, Cabernet Franc and Cabernet Sauvignon. Savannah, their latest, is a rose.

Sherwood House Vineyards

Enjoy Sherwood House wines inside or out.

Inside Sherwood House Vineyards.

In 1996, Dr. Charles and Barbara Smithen, the owners of Sherwood House Vineyards in Mattituck, had finally found their dream home. They had always wanted to live among the vineyards. They were North Fork residents for more than 20 years when they found the property that would become their vineyard lifestyle. The farmhouse, which was built in 1860, and the surrounding 38 acres of former corn and potato fields offered outstanding conditions for growing wine grapes. The Smithens initially planted Chardonnay vines from Burgundian clones, but

after careful research and planning with vineyard manager Steve Mudd, they have since added Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. Award-winning winemaker Gilles Martin has directed the operations of more than twodozen wineries during his 15-year viniculture career and has been the head winemaker at Sherwood House since its inception. The Smithens’ house and vineyards are proudly displayed on the front of each bottle of Sherwood House wine.

My North Fork Wine Day

The Lenz Winery in Peconic.

By Arianna Johnson Two gals of different ages, my aunt and I, asked ourselves, “What can we do on a beautiful Wednesday in September?” The answer: go to the North Fork and taste some wine. The first stop on our wine adventure was at Lenz. This winery has been around since 1978, has almost 70 acres of vines and a philosophy of crafting their wine well and in the French style. The tasting room is rustic with well-worn wood and beams on the ceiling. Once we entered, the pourer, Tom, welcomed us and promptly began pouring us the Estate Flight tasting, which started off with the new release 2008 Blanc de Noir. This wine had a blush tone to it and was dry. Next was the aromatic 2007 Gewüztraminer with its “tricky” sweetness at the end. The third was yet another new release, the 2008 Gold Label Chardonnay, which is completely (continued on next page)

ferment the yeast in the individual bottles and the bubbles form from that, instead of using giant vats and infusing the bubbles afterwards. The process is longer, but worth it. The final destination on our journey was The Winemakers Studio, formally known as The Tasting Room. The new concept behind the store is to only sell wine made by Long Island winemakers. Anthony Nappa of Anthony Nappa Wines reopened this store to showcase not only his wines, but Roman Roth’s, winemaker at Wölffer Estate, and those of John Leo of Clovis Point. The excitement over the fact that this little wine outlet has reopened overrode any recollection of the wines we sampled, but I’m sure they were all good! All in all my aunt and I had a very successful day of tasting a wide range of fabulous Long Island wine.

made in oak and has a rich, buttery flavor. The 2005 Merlot also had nice body and is perfect to pair with any barbeque food. Lastly was the 2004 Cuvee, Lenz’s sparkling wine, which was very refreshing and a great wine for summer. Tom reminded us of the Lenz Artisan and Farmers Market on October 1 from 5 to 8 p.m. Sounds like fun! Next on our list was Sparkling Pointe, appropriately named since they make sparkling wines exclusively. Tom and Cynthia Rosicki started Sparkling Pointe because of their love and passion for Champagne. When you pull up to the tasting room, it looks like a typical East End home, but once you step inside, it’s like a whole different world. It’s all white, with chandeliers and white leather couches. There’s even an outside area with heaters for when it gets chilly. The pourer started us off with the 2007 Brut, which was fruity with green apple and pear notes. Next came the 2005 Blanc De Blanc made of 100% Chardonnay grapes; it has a slight hint of citrus. Third was their more “high-end” wine, Brut Seduction. It is definitely seductive with its smooth finish. Last was the Topaz Imperial, their dry Rosé. It had a nice pink color to it and was the driest of all of the wines. What makes Sparkling Pointe unique is that they

Levine told me that she is particularly excited about the fact that Baiting Hollow’s horse rescue organization expects to be an official 501(c)3 nonprofit organization by year’s end. It is hoped that this will allow for an expansion of Baiting Hollow’s stables and horse population. Baiting

Sannino Bella Vita Vineyard picking and face painting for the kids, and music for everyone to enjoy. After the harvesting, lunch and desserts will be served, followed by the highlight of the day: The Lucy Ball Contest! Participants in this unique event are asked to dress up like Lucille Ball in that infamous “I Love Lucy” episode in which she and Ethel stomped the grapes (and each other). You’ll actually get the chance to stomp barefoot in the vat, Lucy style. According to Lisa Sannino, “Last year’s winner not only dressed like Lucy, she embodied Lucy, she became Lucy!” The winner will receive a full case of Bella Vita Wine (don’t forget your camera).

Oh, Lucy, what are you doing?!

If you’re looking for a hands-on Long Island wine experience – and an activity the entire family can enjoy – grab your pruning shears and head out to Sannino Bella Vita Vineyard in Peconic. Owned by the Sannino family, Bell Vita is the only vineyard on the North Fork that actually allows people to come onto the vineyard and hand-harvest the grapes with the owners. They’ve been doing it for five years as part of their “Vine to Wine” educational program, but this year, for the first time, they are opening the harvesting experience to the public for a one-dayonly Harvest Fest on October 8. According to Lisa Sannino, who together with her husband Anthony owns and manages the vineyard, the winery and the adjoining B&B, this is a very popular event. “It’s really full of memorable family moments, an authentic Long Island wine experience,” she said. The Sannino family – they have four kids – moved to the North Fork from Dix Hills about five years ago to make a total lifestyle change. “I always had a feeling there would be a B&B somewhere in my future,” said Lisa, “but for Anthony it was all about the wine.” Anthony, who is a builder by trade, started making wine about 18 years ago as a hobby. When he got more serious about growing grapes they bought an existing vineyard and he built a home on the 5 ½-acre property. About three years later he built the B&B (he also built nearby Shinn Estate Winery). The Bella Vita Classic Italian Grape Harvest Festival is an authentic working harvest to launch the Sanninos’ 2011 winemaking season. It starts at 9 a.m. with a hearty breakfast on the vineyard, then everyone picks the grapes (you are requested to bring your own shears). There will also be pumpkin

& The view from The garden Jeanelle Myers

This is the time of year when we get to plan surprises for ourselves for next year by planting bulbs. For plant lovers, spotting that great new plant at the nursery, planting it in just the right spot and then watching it grow through the season is a continuing joy from the purchase to the end of the season. But planting bulbs requires delayed gratification. However, in the spring, when these glories pop up, one is truly rewarded in direct proportion to the amount of work done in the fall. Let us start with the earliest blooming. As February begins, I start looking in that certain spot in the garden for the early crocus. And what a thrill when I see it! They bloom from late winter until early spring. The species type bloom earlier followed by the hybrid giants. They are tiny to about 6’ in height and in colors from white to deep purple. Deer do not eat them but squirrels eat them, except for the tommasinianus variety, and chipmunks eat those. In fact, in one garden, hundreds of this variety had been under a tree for several years and within two days, the planting area was covered with small holes and I saw a chipmunk running off with one in

its mouth! To prevent squirrels and chipmunks from digging and eating your crocus, I would recommend covering them with hardware cloth on top of the planting, perhaps covered by some mulch. Do not plant them where they will get a lot of water in the summer as this will rot the corms and be sure to let the foliage die before removing it. Crocus layer well with other bulbs and would be lovely planted with daffodils under them. My favorite early spring blooming flowers are snowdrops. Their delicate dangling heads are like jewels at the ends of fine stems. They are white with a bit of green and are 4” to 6” tall. I have several clumps of double flowered ones and treasure their bloom time. They like to be in shaded areas and do well in wooded places. Animals do not bother them. The bulbs are more expensive than other small bulbs but they are worth the expense and they clump up quickly. Chionodoxa or Glory of the Snow are blue starshaped bunches of flowers growing 4” to 6,” whose name one often cannot remember. They come up looking like they had always been there and, in fact, belong there. They are usually blue but can be white, lavender and even pink; they bloom in clusters, naturalize well and layer well with other bulbs. Animals do not bother them. Muscari, best known as grape hyacinth, are, to me, the spring jokers of the garden. Their clusters of bead-like flowers on skinny stems strutting their stuff in nooks and crannies are a joyous sight. I love to put them next to raised beds, beside large rocks, between stepping stones and pots, in Creeping Jenny ground cover, at the base of vines and roses and any place where they can dazzle. There are various forms in blues and even white and pink. I have grown most all of them but White Magic,

Valerie Finnis and azureum are my favorites. One of the most beautiful spring plantings I have seen was planted in a garden I worked in by the previous gardener. It was Anemone Blanda White Splendor planted in ophiopogon nigrescens, black mondo grass. Breathtaking! Be sure to follow planting depth recommendations and when in doubt plant three times the height of the bulb. Also, be sure to let the foliage die naturally as the leaves provide nutrients for the next year’s flowers. There are other early spring blooming bulbs. I have just listed my favorites. For a catalog of fall planted bulbs of many varieties from a very reliable bulb company, get a catalog from Brent and Becky’s Bulbs as soon as possible. They are online and their phone number is 877-661-2852. Next time, on to daffodils and tulips!

& simple art of cooking by Silvia Lehrer

Wine Salons were offered September 10 on the North and South Forks as a preview of “The Harvest Wine Auction Celebration of Long Island’s East End,” an event to be held on September 17. I attended the salon on “Biodynamics, Organic Practices and Sustainability” at Shinn Estate Vineyards in Mattituck, where Scott Chaskey of Quail Hill Farm moderated the salon with a group of panelists: Mary Woltz (Bees Needs), K.K. Haspel (The Farm), Barbara Shinn (Shinn Vineyards) and Steven Storch (Natural Science Organics). Panelists gave an erudite explanation of their interpretation of biodynamic farming, which basically means to preserve the ground for growing in a procreative way with nature. Historically, ancient cultures began planting their crops by the cycles of the moon and gifting back to the land respect for the powers of nature. Innovative famers and vintners are finding success using these ancient techniques, which have evolved and are the key elements of biodynamic farming. To further clarify its meaning, Scott Chaskey,

a farmer and poet, read a passage from his book, This Common Ground (Viking). Here is a portion of that passage from his chapter titled “The Arc of the Invisible”: “We listen with an equal intensity, at times of seasonal transition, to whatever informs the life of a particular place. Here, sometimes the wind dominates, or perhaps the ocean mist, or the mimic catbird, at times the persistent flush of nutsedge attempting to seed, or a sudden event that claims the sky. A crowd of dragonflies fills the air around the sunflowers, bees are busy on the hedge of raspberries.” It’s kind of a spiritual science that I heard from the panelists. It’s the particular place that Chaskey refers to, and the natural balance of preparation that the farmers employ to ward off all manner of pests giving stimulation to the roots in the soil. In a sentence, biodynamics is a way of healing the earth. Below are two timely recipes from my book, Savoring the Hamptons: Discovering the Food and Wine of Long Island’s East End, recipes with ingredients from sources that the above-mentioned panelists grow. P.S.: On October 2, K.K. Haspel of The Farm will be giving a free workshop on Biodynamics at 4 p.m., 59945 Main Rd., Route 25, Southold. P.S.S.: Shinn Vineyards, a vineyard that practices sustainable and organic farming, generously poured their wines for the pleasure of the salon attendees, FIG SALAD WITH PIGNOLI NUTS, CHEESE AND A DRIZZLE OF HONEY The inspiration for this salad came when a local friend brought me a basket of ripe luscious figs from her backyard fig tree. Serves 6

6 large fresh figs 1/4 cup pignoli nuts, lightly toasted 1/4 pound Shawondasee* cheese in one piece Local honey to drizzle 1. Rinse the figs and pat dry with paper towels. Cut in half lengthwise, divide equally and arrange on 6 salad plates. Top fig halves equally with toasted pignoli nuts and shavings of cheese. Drizzle about 1 teaspoon of honey over each serving. Serve at room temperature. *Shawondasee, a natural, semi-hard rind tome cheese that pairs nicely with fruit, is made by Art Ludlow, artisanal cheese maker of Mecox Dairy in Bridgehampton. For this recipe I also used honey from Mary Woltz’s Bees Needs, which has hives all over the East End. MIZUNA SALAD WITH ROAST BEETS AND GOAT CHEESE Mizuna, an Oriental green, is grown locally. Sweet roasted beets and the salty tang of goat cheese compliment the peppery bite of the greens. Roasted unpeeled beets will keep in the refrigerator for up to a week. Peel when ready to use in salads or slice and pan sauté to serve as a warm vegetable. Yield: Serves 6 to 8 1 bunch fresh beets with greens 1 large bunch fresh mizuna 4 ounces Catapano* or other fresh chèvre 1/3 cup walnuts, toasted For the Vinaigrette 2 to 3 shallots, finely chopped (continued on next page)

1 tablespoon grainy Dijon mustard 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons sherry wine vinegar Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper 4 to 5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Preheat oven to 400° F. 1. Remove tops of greens from beets (if in good condition trim and discard stems and cook the greens, which can substitute for spinach). Allow about one inch of stem to remain on the beets. Scrub beets with a vegetable brush and pat dry with paper towels. Wrap beets in heavy-duty foil to securely close, place on a baking sheet and roast for 1 1/4 hours, or until tender. Remove from oven and, when cool enough to handle, peel and discard skin from beets or refrigerate unpeeled in a suitable container until ready to use. 2. Wash and spin-dry mizuna, roll up in paper towels to absorb excess moisture. If preparing salad greens ahead put in a zip lock bag and secure. Refrigerate up to 24 hours until ready to use. 3. Prepare vinaigrette: In a mixing bowl combine chopped shallots, Dijon mustard, sherry wine vinegar and salt and pepper. Whisk ingredients, then gradually add oil, whisking all the time until ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. Taste to adjust seasoning as necessary. 4. When ready to serve toss greens with about two-thirds of the vinaigrette and divide equally on 6 to 8 salad plates. Cut 3 to 4 beets into thin, even slices and arrange them, overlapping, over the greens. Drizzle remaining vinaigrette on the beets and top with crumbled goat cheese. Sprinkle with toasted walnuts and serve. (continued on page 55)

HAMPTONS EPICURE Stacy Dermont

Sharing the Baby Food Love at Dan’s Papers The latest, greatest baby food has hit the Hamptons! You can throw it in your beach bag, you can take as much of it as you like on a plane. You can whip it up instantly with water or breast milk. It’s Nurturme’s dried organic baby food, which comes in convenient pouches. Drying (instead of bottling) means a higher preservation of nutrients and phytochemicals. Nurturme’s co-founder Lauren McCullough stopped by Dan’s Papers to share the love of her product with yours truly. Yes, I started my day sampling baby food and ended it at a top East End restaurant. I enjoyed both experiences. This baby food has no added sugar, salt or preservatives and it doesn’t need ‘em! I was sold on these fresh-tasting samples, especially the apple. Granted, I’m not a baby. I also sent samples out for field testing—one-year-old Luke’s mom Kelly reports that “He loves it!” Sevenmonth-old Rafaela in Springs is particularly taken with the Nurturme spoon she was given. McCullough and her (very pregnant) partner Caroline Freedman were in town for the Super Saturday fundraiser. It makes sense for companies to promote their new products in the Hamptons, especially if they’re a small concern that has to pinpoint their efforts for the greatest effect. We Hamptonites are

tastemakers. For McCullough and Freedman this is their whole product line—apple, sweet potato, squash, pea, banana and carrot organic baby food. Though they’ve discovered that it’s not just for babies. Many Hamponites were excited about using Nurturme in dog food preparations. Some adults were quite taken with the stuff too. (Remember that Baby Food Diet fad that you were forced to live through in high school? Wouldn’t it have been altogether less annoying if the baby food had been organic, instead of just grown-up food pulverized?) It’s gluten free and it’s certainly an easy way to boost nutrients in foods like yogurt and pasta. Nurturme was born when Freedman had to

feed her first child, Audrey. (You’ll see Audrey’s adorable image on some of Nurturme’s packaging.) Freedman wasn’t happy with the limited baby food options. So she and McCullough developed their own new baby food. This stuff is as individual as your child—you choose the consistency and the amount. You can even mix different flavors together. Plus it’s a good choice for the environment—both because it’s grown organically and because the low-weight packaging requires less energy to ship. Now that Audrey is on solid foods, Nurturme still adds to her nutritional intake—her mom stirs it into her homemade macaroni and cheese. On the Nurturme website, www.nurturme.com, you can check out recipes using their baby food—like Squashed Mac’ Cheese and Sweet Potato Pancakes. Nurturme donated 6,600 pouches of yummy baby food to Super Saturday’s goodie bags, benefiting the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund. Nurturme products can be ordered online and last month they went on sale in Babies ‘R Us stores nationwide. Try some for yourself—or feed it to the nearest baby. I’m currently working on mixing Nurturme’s Hearty Sweet Potatoes into a cocktail. That’s healthy, right? www.nurturme.com Send food samples for testing to Stacy Dermont, Dan’s Papers, P.O.

*Just two years after Karen Catapano co-founded the Goat Cheese Dairy Farm in Mattituck with her husband, Dr. Michael Catapano, their soft fresh chèvre won first place in the American Cheese Society’s annual goat cheese competition. Be sure to join me on Saturday, September 17, from 2 to 5 p.m., at Paumanok Vineyards in Aquebogue, where I’ll be signing my book, Savoring the Hamptons: Discovering the Food and Wine of Long Island’s East End.

bones tender and intensely beefy. Muma explained to our party how she gets the meat so very tender and beefy – by cooking it with house-made glace. Jeanne enjoyed a special, a sizeable Wild Alaskan Salmon filet with Tomato Corn Salsa and Basmati Rice. A delicate and tasty fish preparation. All of our entrees came with the chef’s choice of vegetables, so we all enjoyed a side of very tender, buttery broccoli and squash.

We didn’t really save room for dessert. But Bob quite enjoyed his Chocolate Silk Pie. It’s alive with chocolate flavor and it’s light. Jeanne liked her Vanilla Panna Cotta, describing it as “very nice.” (I coveted her whipped cream.) Husband enjoyed his usual heated cognac while I indulged in the Coconut Sorbet, served in a real coconut shell. It was a big serving of cool yum. Last November Dark Horse Restaurant expanded when it added The Peconic Room next door to the regular dining room. This function room seats 120 diners comfortably and is available to non-profit organizations for meetings free of charge. I enjoyed everything I ate at Dark Horse and it’s decorated with my favorite things – memorabilia and repurposed architectural elements – but it felt like something was missing. Music! There wasn’t any playing when we were there, it was probably an oversight. Dark Horse advertises live music every weekend.

By Stacy Dermont A dark Wednesday evening found us on Main Street in Riverhead. We were not alone, Dark Horse Restaurant and its sister establishment, Tweed’s, attract hundreds of diners nightly. Dark Horse will mark its first anniversary on September 20. Open for lunch and dinner, Dark Horse has something for every palate and everything is gluten free. Owner Dee Muma is gluten intolerant and a lifelong baker. If you’re “gluten free” this is THE place to go. You won’t miss the gluten at all! (Though tasty “regular” dinner rolls are also available.) Executive Chef Jeff Trujillo’s menu follows the seasons to offer the freshest local products. The full bar has both local beers and wines on tap. When we visited, the red on tap was a custom blend from Raphael and the white was Martha Clara’s viognier. The Dark Horse Wine List offers another local favorite, Sparkling Pointe, and a selection of relatively inexpensive wines, all of which have scored 88 points or higher. For $19.95 the 4:30 – 6: 30 p.m. Early Bird Special is a steal. Plus the menu says, “Child friendly options always available.” My kind of place. I started the evening off right with a Frisky Presbyterian prepared by bartender Patrice. This cocktail is composed of rye, house ginger syrup, peppered vodka and muddled with cucumber, I’ve definitely never met the Presbyterian who inspired this cocktail. It is very lively, a real kick. I had mine with ginger ale instead of club soda, which sweetens it a bit. My husband ordered a Gin Martini, which met with his satisfaction, while our friend Bob enjoyed a Greenport Harbor Ale. Our fourth, Jeanne, enjoyed the house triple-filtered water. We chowdered it up to start. Jeanne had the Local Corn Chowder, Bob the Clam Chowder and I had the Roasted Shrimp Bisque. Husband, the iconoclast, ordered Fried Oysters. We were all happy as clams. My bisque was served in an actual cup – it was so smooth and SO GOOD – I picked up the cup by its handle, all the better to scarf it down. Those fried oysters were hot, tender and fried just right. The best word we hit on to describe the corn chowder was “corny.” It’s bursting with fresh corn flavor. I ordered the Chix a la Brique with smashed potatoes and creamed spinach. Each element was intensely flavorful. For me, the chicken was a tad salty, but I’m very salt sensitive. The creamed spinach was served atop the potato like a little, dark beret – it was easily as tasty as any gravy. (If you disagree, I’ll eat my hat.) Husband was seduced by the Pork Loin T-Bone with blood orange glace reduction and smashed potato. I quite liked the tender, moist pork loin too. Bob ordered the Short Ribs with smashed potato and house-pickled onion. Wow! This is fall-off-the-

& ART COMMENTARY by Marion W. Weiss

Robert Wilson: Avant-Garde Visionary

Robert Wilson, artist extraordinaire, is celebrating his 70th birthday this year with events in Milan, Berlin and New York â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an indication of his international reputation and respect. Of course, we Hamptons residents need only go down the road any day to experience the equally extraordinary activities at The Watermill Center, a place Wilson created in 1992. Visiting Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s New York office and studio, where his impressive Robert Wilson Archive resides, is another way to celebrate the artistâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s achievements, giving us a different perspective of his work and life. Discoveries await us even before we reach the Archiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10th floor. The buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neighborhood lies smack in the middle of the Garment District, on 29th Street between Sixth and Seventh Avenues. Cluttered store windows display the varied wholesale goods inside: pocketbooks, underwear, wedding veils. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all kitsch, no doubt about it. The narrow side streets are crowded and chaotic as well, evoking a disorienting ambience. Upstairs at Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Archive, the mood is exactly the opposite â&#x20AC;&#x201C; organized and spotless space, airy and welcoming â&#x20AC;&#x201C; an oasis amidst the commercial confusion below. In fact, the Archive may also be considered an oasis because it not only offers respite but substance for survival. Such substance provides documentation of Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contributions in diverse artistic areas, like film, video, painting, sculpture, sound, light, theatre and opera design. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to imagine that the Archive, located previously in Manhattanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dumbo region, has been here only a short time, considering its contents. Joseph Bradshaw, the Archive Manager, who has a literature degree and research writing experience, defines the Archiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s contents: drawings, performance photographs, videos, sketches for exhibits, notebooks, press material and programs. While the Archive includes quite a comprehensive collection, Bradshaw says he would like more materials regarding collaborative efforts, like costume photographs and composersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; scores from Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s theatrical productions. Bradshawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ideas about the importance of Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work are mirrored in the Archiveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purpose: preserving Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history, tradition and a sense of the past. Preservation is a particularly essential issue; while digital retrieval, for example, allows access to material, physical holdings are still most salient. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Digital documentation cannot replace a real object,â&#x20AC;? Bradshaw says with conviction. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you lose an object, you lose whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most important about it.â&#x20AC;? Fortunately, Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s films and videos were never lost. Moreover, they provide a potent way of celebrating his achievements, like a visit to the Archive. East Hamptonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pollock-Krasner House will screen one such work, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Video 50,â&#x20AC;? for their series â&#x20AC;&#x153;Artists Make Movies: Avant-Garde Visionariesâ&#x20AC;? to prove the point, on Friday, September 16. Originally broadcast on TV, the experimental piece has never been shown locally. What is intriguing

Joseph Bradshaw at work at the Robert Wilson Archive.

are the aspects defining Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aesthetics found in other art forms: his â&#x20AC;&#x153;symbolic imagery, surreal juxtapositions and deadpan theatricality.â&#x20AC;? Sound is another element thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emphasized in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Video 50.â&#x20AC;? As Wilson himself says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;In many of my pieces, what you see and what you hear do not go together. The video and the audio are meant to stand on their own. What I am trying to do is give individual lives to both sound and picture.â&#x20AC;?

In fact, all of Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work has enjoyed individual lives as well. And collective ones, too. Â For information about seeing Wilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s video, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Video 50,â&#x20AC;? on Friday, September 16 at 7 p.m., call the Pollock-Krasner House (631-324-4929). The Archive is located at 115 W. 29th Street, New York. Call 212- 253-7484 (ext.18) to talk with Joseph Bradshaw.Â

HONORING THE ARTIST by Marion W. Weiss

Jo-Ann Corretti

While this week’s cover artist Jo-Ann Corretti has been painting full-time for 30 years, her scenes of Long Island seem as if they are created with fresh eyes, perhaps from a young person’s perspective, or from someone who is discovering the area for the first time. We should also point out that most of Corretti’s images share another common element. Consider Sag Harbor’s American Hotel, North Fork’s Love Lane, South Fork’s Lumber Lane or the cover’s Adirondack chairs. Many objects are placed on a diagonal, giving the composition a threedimensionality and depth. There is also a matter of the picture plane, as we wonder what lies beyond the actual image. Q: What were you attracted to when you painted the chairs for the cover? A: I love the little details of the chairs. The rust running down, places where the chairs are weathered – details that make them come alive. I also like the idea of summer, which represents beauty, relaxation. Q: What are you looking for generally with your paintings? A: I like to paint nature and man-made structures together, like the beach with chairs, so that the total piece is one of beauty. As an artist, I have

a responsibility to create beauty. I also hope my paintings would brighten a room, bring happiness. Q: What else is your intention? A: I call my work “personal art.” I hope my paintings bring back memories of favorite places. Q: What are some of your favorite places? A: Montauk, Fire Island, Shelter Island. I’m always taking pictures wherever my husband and I go. Looking at my paintings, I remember everything

about the place, even where we went to lunch. Q: What do you look for when you’re out exploring these places? A: I love hiking and finding little things, little spots; just the way a tree limb is hanging. Q: So you have a personal relationship with your paintings as well. What else do you mean when you say you do “personal art?” A: Being an artist is not just painting pretty pictures. I have a personal, lifetime relationship with the owners of my paintings. When I see the owners, they give me pictures showing where my work is hung; I remember when I delivered one painting, the people invited me in for spaghetti and meatballs. I think my energies are literally in my paintings. Every thing is energy. That’s why I stay attached to people who have my art. Q: Besides establishing a personal connection with your owners, do you have a relationship with certain seasons? A: I love winter; it’s so magnificent the way snow clings to trees, the shadows on trees. But I love every season. At the end of each season I’m really ready for the next one. Q: How did you start painting in the first place? A: I was always creative, but my career just happened, one day at a time. Q: Were your parents artists? A: Both parents drew; they did sketches that they put in little portfolios. Q: Your art is so positive, and you seem like a very positive person, too. A: If you love what you do, you’re positive. You may contact the artist on her website, www. joanncorretti.com, or call her at 631-786-3467. Her work can be seen at both Greenport’s Fiedler Gallery and Studio East Gallery.

Painter Rex Lau and ceramicist Diane Mayo have lived and worked together in Montauk, Long Island, for the past 30 years. Their studios are back to back in a small structure on the grounds of the Edward F. Albee Foundation. Lau, whose works are in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney Museum of Art, and the Guggenheim Museum, will be exhibiting a new series of paintings at Gallery 125 that is more geometric than his “extractions” from nature, but that uses his much admired sense of touch and color. Mayo, who employs the raku technique of firing clay, will show her recently debuted horizontally striped vessel-forms that mark her as a ceramicist of high achievement.

Hamptons Black International Film Fest

Popa Wu, father of the Wu Tang Clan

First the Irish band the Corrigan Brothers wrote the song, “There’s No One As Irish as Barack Obama,” (“toor a loo, toor a loo, toor a lama, there’s no one as Irish as Barack Obama”), now comes the long-awaited feature documentary film Obama’s Irish Roots, which will have its U.S. premiere in the Hamptons Black International Film Festival at the Bay Street Theatre (September 16-18). Written and directed by Gabriel Murray, the film was conceived after Obama said in 2007 that he could trace his green roots to a small village called Moneygall in County Offaly, where his great greatgreat grandfather had lived. The film will have a Red Carpet screening on Saturday, September 17 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., followed by a question-andanswer session. The offerings at this year’s HBIFF are a diverse

“Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black Orleans”

Fábio Assunção Pinto in “Bellini and the Devil”

mix of film genres and styles. Highlights include Bellini and The Devil (September 16 at 6:30 p.m.) which “tells the story of detective Remo Bellini, who gets pulled into a web of death and mysteries that take him to a world of illusions where everything around him is a self-created fantasy.” Another promising feature documentary, Faubourg Treme: The Untold Story of Black Orleans, reveals the life of free blacks in early-1800s in New Orleans who were thriving while others were toiling on plantations in

the South. The film reveals the rich life of artists from that period who were “publishing poetry and conducting symphonies.” Hip-hop legend and patriarch of the renowned rap group Wu Tang Clan is celebrated in Popa Wu, a 5% Story directed by Khalik Allah. An adventure into the mind of Popa Wu, the patriarch of the world-renowned rap group Wu Tang Clan. The film explores Popa Wu’s influence on the Wu-Tang Clan and the hip-hop culture. The three-day festival at the Bay Street Theatre begins on Friday at 6:30 p.m. and runs through Sunday. A complete schedule can be found at www.baystreet.org.

We Barbara Wolfram, Vice President also held several raffles. We would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation Our food pantries are crucial in these times. – DR. to the following donors who provided chowders, wine A GREAT LOSS IN LEADERSHIP and beer: Dear Dan, The recent passing of Shelter Island resident former B. J. Smith Governor Hugh Carey was a great loss for all. Few Channing Daughters Winery remember the critical role Governor Carey played The Beacon in saving New York City from bankruptcy in 1975. Long Wharf Wines & Spirits Carey was a mainstream moderate Democrat in Cilantro’s the tradition of the late Senators Daniel Patrick Noyac Liquors Moynihan and Scoop Jackson. Cromer’s Country Market The growth in government spending, taxes, Sag Harbor Liquor Store regulations, creation of new agencies and programs The Dock House along with accumulation of long-term debt was Southampton Publick House far more modest under his administration than Dockside Bar & Grill the generations that preceded and followed him Wolffer Winery in Albany.

LETTERS

Clam Shucking Contest: Fastest Shucker: Pete

Police Blotter Duped A man called a couple in Amagansett and told them over the telephone that he was their grandson and that he was in Europe in a bad motorcycle accident. He then told them he needed $4,700 to which the couple immediately sent via Western Union. The couple then found out that the man was not who he said he was. Good Cabby A cab driver flagged down a police officer in East Hampton for help when he noticed that the passengers in his car were asleep and would not wake up. When the officer looked into the back of the cab, he saw the two sleeping passengers. One of them had a white, powdery substance around his nostrils. The officer was able to wake him up, and found him to be in possession of cocaine. The officer arrested the man, and put him inside of his police car with handcuffs and went back to the cab to check on the other man. At which point the kid that was just arrested pushed open the door of the police car and fled into the woods. After a quick manhunt, he was found 100 yards away near a deer fence. All we can say here is that this would have made a good episode of “Cops: Hamptons.” Shelter Island Old Man McGumbus, 99 years-old, quietly racist, President of the Shelter Island Assault Rifles Club, founder of Rocket Launchers and Bullets Magazine and former World War II mine planter, was in his garden

planting tulips and checking on his tomatoes when he uncovered a suspicious chest buried in his garden. McGumbus opened the chest and found inside a complex looking device with the words “Time Machine” written on it. Believing he had found a time machine, the old man placed the device on top of his head and turned it on and was immediately electrocuted. A neighbor saw McGumbus pass out and called the authorities. When he awoke, McGumbus immediately thought that he had traveled into a new time and was heard responding, “WHAT YEAR IS IT? WHAT YEAR IS IT?” When nobody answered him immediately, he punched the ambulance worker in the face and then began running down the street. He was found hiding inside of his underground bunker behind his house. When everything was explained, no charges were filed for assault against the ambulance worker. Gate Crasher A man drove his car directly into the Hedges Inn in East Hampton last week. The Inn is located across from the intersection of Woods Lane and Ocean Avenue and for some reason drivers going down Montauk Highway occasionally do not notice the left turn and continue to drive straight, just past Town Pond and then into the Inn. This seems to happen every summer and is pretty odd. My solution? Extend Town Pond farther out so that if a car does this they go for a swim instead. –David Lion Rattiner

Send your letters to askdan@danspapers.com (e-mails only, please) Sincerely, Larry Penner Great Neck Hugh Carey was an amazing man. - DR HUNTING FOR REPUBLICANS Dear Dan, What the heck is going on within that throng of potential Republican Presidential candidates? Here now is this guy Huntsman. He is indeed a Republican candidate but as such he sounds unusually informed. What are they trying to pull? Jon believes in science such as evolution and climate change and he actually condemns the idiocy of some having even considered not extending the debt ceiling. He wants our troops out of Iraq and Afghanistan. What’s more, he magnanimously would allow abortion in case of rape or incest. Huh? There may even be more areas of progressive (small “p”) thinking, contrasting with that of the Ultra Conservative core. Who knows? But it appears that the Republican voters may now have at least one candidate in the primary that does not match all the rest, to a Tea. Huntsman however is of Mormon persuasion, as is Romney. This will most likely conflict with the established Republican Party’s religious dogma. It will be interesting to see how this disparity plays out. It would seem inconceivable that the very existence of such a point of contention should even exist in this day and age of enlightenment, but while a brightening light allows some to see ever more clearly, others are merely left blind. I fear we will soon be witnessing a modern day, “Clash of the Titans.” Pick your cult. Nicholas Zizelis Go see The Book of Mormon. - DR Amagansett LABOR DAY: AN IMPORTANT HOLIDAY FOR AMERICA Dear Dan, I hope you enjoyed your Labor Day holiday. The reason we celebrate Labor Day is largely because of the contributions made by unions to the betterment of America’s workers. The numerous beneficial influences of organized labor cannot be ignored. Most of the benefits workers now enjoy are directly attributable to unions. To cite but a few: the 40-hr. workweek; paid holidays and vacations; sick leave; grievance procedures, collective bargaining and generally superior wages. Unfortunately, succeeding generations have come to take those benefits for granted. Those benefits came about because of unions and soon became the norm for union workers and many non-union workers as well. All American workers owe a debt of gratitude to Organized Labor for its achievements. Paul G. Jaehnert Vadnais Hts., MN I think we celebrate all laborers, but I also think we owe a great debt to the unions and the standards they created. –DR
