31 Mermaids
31 1,200 Telephone Poles
by Dan Rattiner Are you afraid to go into the water? At least two killers sharks are out there. Both were captured and released with beepers that track their every move. It’s not just oceans that pose a threat, though.
by Dan Rattiner Here is a piece from Dan’s Papers, written 20 years ago, about the origins of the Hamptons International Film Festival. It’s quite an interesting story. The Festival begins on Oct. 4 and runs through Oct. 8.
by Dan Rattiner The clashing conundrum that is created by the beasts of the sea can be handled in two ways. But you must decide: Are mermaids endangered, or should they be sold by the pound? All you need to know about mermaids.
by Oliver Peterson Are useless telephone poles harshing on your mellow? Legistator Jay Schneiderman wants all the old poles removed from the East End. Are human beings simply getting used to ugly?

Guaranteed Rate?
“As a broker-only company, I have been exploring opportunities that would enhance the offers that we could make to our clients. Guaranteed Rate stood out from the other various banks that I met with. While a number of other lenders left the wholesale space in the past year, Guaranteed Rate has developed the best technology and loan options available in the industry. While many banks will tell you that they offer everything, Guaranteed Rate really does! Guaranteed Rate has the same type of business philosophy and operational flow as we’re used to at the Manhattan Mortgage Company, making it an even easier match-up for us. This transition has been exciting. It has allowed, and will continue to allow, me to grow my business through a model that already feels like home. ” - Melissa Cohn, Founder & President of Manhattan Mortgage

CHINESE TICKETS On August 1, the city of Shaoyang, China, deputized retirees to give out leaflets, watch out for criminals, give out traffic tickets and, on the spot, collect the fines. The retirees wear red armbands to identify themselves to regular citizens. They are not paid for what they do. But they get to keep the money they collect from giving out tickets. This simultaneously solves the problems of retirement, crazy drivers, the city budget, death on the highways, chaos, communications, crime and unemployment. The only problem is when five retirees leap out into the street to fight over who gives out the ticket when a car is one foot over a stop line. It’s something for the Hamptons to consider.

“Along with the New York Subway System, Hamptons Subway is the only underground transit system in the State of New York.”
The H amptons Subway Newsletter By DAn rattiner
Week of October 5 – October 11, 2012 Riders this past week: 14,744 Rider miles this past week: 91,214 DOWN IN THE TUBE It’s going to be a star-studded week for Hampton Subway because this weekend is the Hamptons International Film Festival and all the big actors and actresses will be down here. Paparazzi and other people of Italian ancestry will be allowed to gather only in the roped-off areas of all the platforms, to take pictures of the celebs as they board or step off. Look for the sign that says “Paparazzi.” NEW SUBWAY PROMOTION For the next two weeks, all persons who are so short that they can walk under the turnstiles without ducking will be allowed to use the subway system for free. Monitors will be on hand to see if you can do this, kids. Keep the hair slicked down if it’s gonna be close, dude. FARE RISE Cost of a fare on the Hampton Subway will rise on November 1 from $2.50 to $2.75. Hampton
Subway is the leader in subway increases in America. Our fares have gone up more often and by larger amounts than any other subway system in the country. Last year, Commissioner Aspinall was presented with an award because of that. LOST AND FOUND MOVE The Lost and Found office for Hampton Subway will be moving on December 1. At the current time it is in room 3F on the third floor of the Hampton Subway office building on Ponquogue Avenue in Hampton Bays. Unfortunately, filching by employees has not been able to be stopped at this location. People just break the lock on the door when the room is closed, or deal with some of the people in charge of the room who, when we subsequently find out about it, get fired. From now on, Lost and Found will be located in an underground storeroom halfway between Hampton Bays and Quogue. There will be no access from the street. It will be completely automated. If you lose a scarf, for example, take a laptop computer down to the Quogue platform, go online to Hamptonsubway.com/
October 5, 2012 Page 23 lostandfound and type the word “scarf” in the box and photos of all scarves in the storeroom will be displayed. Pick the one that is yours by clicking on it and a conveyor belt will take it in its plastic bin along a little track attached to the side of the tunnel to you at the glass booth at the eastern edge of the platform for further identification and pickup. NO FILM FESTIVAL MOVIES ON SUBWAY We tried this last year, setting up a movie screen on the Southampton Platform every day to show the films scheduled there, but few people came and the noise of the trains and the din of the straphangers rushing to get on them made it so you couldn’t hear anything. This year, we are not one of the prestigious film festival sites. TRANSFERS Next week, Hampton Subway will try a plan which will allow straphangers the option of leaving the subway system for half an hour to get some fresh air or a cup of coffee and then come back down to continue on their way without having to pay another fare. These “transfers” will be time-stamped at all token booths. Go there before you take your break to be stamped. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL’S MESSAGE I can’t believe it is almost time for our annual “count the cars” contest where kids of all ages go up on Fort Hill in Montauk overlooking our subway yard to guess how many cars are in the system. It’s something we do during the holiday season. It’s coming up. Soon the box with the slot in it will go up there into which you can put your guesses. Merry Christmas.

It was a very strange sight, and after an investigation into the incident, it has been determined that pesticides were not the cause. Officials confirmed that no pesticides were sprayed in the area recently, and for some reason the crabs just showed up dead. Maybe they were just all part of a crab cult and all drank poison at the same time—either that or, FREAKING PESTICIDE WAS SPRAYED THERE BY SOMEBODY.

McGone-gus Shelter Island’s infamous Old Man McGumbus has gone missing this week. He is reportedly climbing Mount Kilimanjaro by day and sleeping in a Hello Kitty sleeping bag at night. No one knows why this 105-year-old WW II vet is determined to make the summit. Some believe that McGumbus’s recent stardom on reddit. com sent him over some psychological edge and he is seeking a ritual cleansing at the top of Africa’s highest mountain. Some wonder if the extensive collection of paraphernalia he is carrying with him via dog sled includes one of his flamethrowers. In any case, no one on Shelter Island misses him yet, at least according to his ex-wife. Meanwhile, back on that sheltered island, hipsters are celebrating McGumbus’s absence with read-ins at all the local coffee hives. They are reading aloud from Kerouac classics and reciting scenes from “How I Met Your Mother” and “Colombo.” They are also holding bake-ins, using yeasts found in McGumbus’ old pickup truck to leaven bread dough. LOST? Purebred dogs are showing up more and more in local animal shelters. Purebred cats remain a rarity. The recent donation of a purebred Angus bull did not go well. Those people wishing to donate livestock are now being referred to local farmers.

Shark Report Two Killers Are Out There, Both Captured and Released with Beepers By Dan Rattiner
N
Dan's Banner Clocks_Layout 1
ow that the summer swimming season is over, it’s time to recap this summer’s shark report here in the North Atlantic. There were early reports of giant killer white sharks off Cape Cod this summer, and on several occasions the beaches at Chatham had to be evacuated. These sharks were seen by all sorts of people as close as 30 yards and as far off as 100 yards from shore. They were the size of the fish in the movie Jaws. All beaches up and down the northeast coast were put on alert at that time—this was in July—as this was the first time in awhile that people could recall seeing sharks the size of Volkswagens in the area. Here in Montauk and the Hamptons, there were subsequently five reported near-shore sightings of sharks at our local beaches, but all these sharks were much smaller, perhaps threshers or makos, which can weigh-in at about 400 pounds. In one instance, according to a report in the East Hampton Star, a Montauk lifeguard named Christian Westergard was sitting on a surfboard alongside the roped-off area for swimmers at Gurney’s Inn on August 14 when he felt a force hit his legs and, moments later, also hit his surfboard, which dumped him overboard into the water. Atop the lifeguard 5/18/12 AMlifeguard Page 1 Kate Albrecht, along with stand, 9:44 chief
lifeguard Michael Morris, saw the commotion and saw the shark shadow near Westergard, but was astonished at what Westergard did when he came up from underwater. He quickly got back on his board, his legs dangling over, and paddled swiftly to shore, then strapped on a floatation torpedo, shouted to other lifeguards, and led a group of them back into the water to get the 30 or so bathers back out. From the stand, Kate Albrecht radioed the nearby Hither Hills State Park and East Hampton Town lifeguards, urging them to get their bathers out of the water, which they also did. There were several other instances of shark sightings reported during the summer in the Hamptons. In one instance, a fisherman off Ditch Plains telephoned his son surfing along the shoreline that he had a shark circling his boat and to pass that on, which the son did. On another occasion, a surfcaster named John Morley, fishing in Napeague along the ocean beach there, much to his surprise, hooked and hauled in a shark between four-and-a-half and five feet long. A photo of that shark was sent to the National Marine Fisheries Service in Narragansett, Rhode Island for identification. In case you think these were just isolated sightings of sharks, consider this. There were three shark fishing competitions held in Montauk this summer. The (Cont’d on next page)

Shark (Continued from previous page) 26th annual Star Island Yacht Club Shark fishing contest, resulted in 47 total sharks, including 32 makos brought in—all over the minimum of 150 pounds—over the weekend of June 15–16. One boat brought in a 422-pound thresher shark. Other competitions took place earlier in the spring and also in August. The 42nd annual Montauk Marine Basin Shark Fishing Contest was held in late June. Tens of thousands of dollars were contributed for prizes. Hundreds of boats entered these contests. Crowds of people were on hand to watch the fishermen come in with their catches, the largest of which they brought in; the ones that didn’t meet weight requirements were thrown back. The folks up in Cape Cod were faced with a much different situation in July. These sharks were about four times the size of the ones caught here. The city of Chatham hired a shark spotter to go out every day in an airplane and look for the killer or killers. The Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries also authorized a boat, a converted crabbing vessel captained by Chris Fischer, to go out to find the sharks. It took them awhile, but they found one on September 13. How they caught her and got her into a canvas cradle attached with an outrigger to the side of the boat is not reported on the dailycomet.com, where we read this report, but this killer white weighed 2,292 pounds and a team of scientists, over a period of 15 minutes, held her in the cradle and attached a GPS tag to her dorsal fin and took tissue and blood samples for analysis. She was then named “Genie” for purposes of tracking her location on
a computer screen and then let go. On September 17, they caught a nastier and much bigger killer white shark. She was a real fighter and pulled them around for a while until she exhausted herself enough to be pulled into the cradle, where she started up again and swatted three scientists with her thrashing tail before settling back down. She weighed 3,456 pounds and measured 16 feet in length. The scientists tagged her and took blood and tissue samples and also released this killer, now named “Mary Lee,” back into the wild. Some people do recall how Montauk shark fisherman Frank Mundus used to go out shark fishing with rod and reel aiming to catch one of these monsters. He also carried a high-powered rifle to finish things off if things went badly, which they sometimes did. In 1986, Mundus landed the largest killer shark ever by rod and reel. This was a 3,427 pound monster, which was pulled to the side of the boat and then lashed there after being shot in the head to make sure he was dead, but Mundus’ application for the world’s shark fishing record for rod and reel with the appropriate judging board was disqualified because Mundus himself had hooked the fish while in the fighting chair and then minutes later got up from the chair and turned the rod over to his charter client for the day who did the rest of the work. Two men on a fish disqualified him. I’d like to end this report with the story of a man’s thumb found inside a fish and identified by matching the fingerprint with the man who lost it three months earlier.
The finger belonged to a wakeboarder named Haans Galassi, 31, who was wakeboarding behind a powerboat on Priest Lake, Idaho on June 21. He caught his finger in the loop of the towline and was unable to remove it before the line cut it off, and it fell down into the water. On September 11, Nolan Calvin was trout fishing on the same lake, eight miles away from where Galassi was injured. He caught a trout and was cleaning it when he discovered the finger inside the fish’s belly. He put it on ice and turned it over to the Bonner County Sheriff’s office, which found that the fingerprint on the finger was still intact, and by checking their records discovered it matched those of Galassi. Galassi learned about this last Tuesday. Of course it was too late to reattach it. The 21st century is now strutting its stuff with the pre-historic denizens of the sea, big and small. Two little red dots on a computer screen making pinging noises are tracking Mary Lee and Genie. In recent weeks, Genie headed south from Chatham, then turned around and as this is written is lurking off the south coast of Nantucket. Mary Lee headed out from Chatham going north, got to just off Wellfleet, then headed south and is currently well out in the Atlantic about parallel with Washington D.C. Meanwhile a little human finger indicates that a trout without a name is now eight miles away from where it was on June 21. Science marches on. And I predict by next summer that you—after reading this—will be less scared of going in the water then you are now. See you at the beach.

In the Beginning How the Hamptons International Film Festival Was Founded By Dan Rattiner
T
he Hamptons International Film Festival says this year is their 20th birthday year, and to a certain extent that is true. The film festival was thought up in 1992, which by subtraction is 20 years ago. But its first festival was in 1993. On the other hand (pun coming up), if you count the years on your fingers, 2012 is indeed the 20th year since 1993. For the full story of the founding, read the account below, written in the summer of 1993 in Dan’s Papers. *** One of the biggest events of the summer this year in the Hamptons is not going to take place in the summer at all. It is going to take place over five days at the end of October. It is the Hamptons International Film Festival. This project was just a gleam in the eye of a casting director last autumn. Now it turns out
it will rival some of the greatest of the world’s film festivals in its size and scope and will be a major feather in the cap of this community. It is a remarkable success story. I spoke yesterday with Joyce Robinson, the founder of the festival who, until this project began to overwhelm her this winter, made her living as a Hollywood casting director. “I only started coming here a few years ago,” she told me. “And then I felt like I was being torn in two. On the one hand, I love it here. I wanted to make my home here. On the other hand, my job was on the west coast, casting actors for movies. I thought, and this was last summer, how can I do something that could put my work and my home in one place, in the Hamptons, where I wanted to be? At three o’clock in the morning one day last August I sat up in bed and I said ‘Of course. A film festival.’’’ Indeed, Robinson was centrally placed to get
just such a project off the ground. As a casting director, she knows agents and actors and producers and directors. Casting a film involves getting people with different talents together around a table and having them work it out. It was what she knew. Her approach to creating a film festival in the Hamptons would involve her tried and true technique. She would cast it. I think what Robinson did not know, last summer, was just how ready this community would be for such a project. In the past, projects such as this have been proposed and have fallen by the wayside. But in the last five years, the well-to-do of Manhattan have begun coming to the Hamptons not just in the summer but in the fall and winter and spring in droves. A fundraising project by Ralph Destino of Cartier in Manhattan demonstrated that fact. It was a benefit (Cont’d on next page)
Never Promise a Vacation in the Hamptons By Dan Rattiner
Y
ou may recall reading about the most astonishing auto accident ever on Long Island. In the middle of a dark night on May 28, a young couple in a bright red Mercedes convertible are traveling at high speed down a residential road in Huntington that was in a T. Straight in front of them is a suburban home occupied by two women in their 90s sleeping in their bedrooms. The young couple goes straight. The Mercedes zips past the stop sign, past the sign with the blinking stop lights at the end of Browns Road, uproots a pine tree, bashes into the front wall of the house, goes into the kitchen and then out the back wall to end up, right side up, on the back lawn near
a garden, the pine tree still wrapped over the hood. The noise wakes the two women. One of them goes to see what is going on, and is confronted by a young man who is standing in what is left of her kitchen. “What are you doing here?” the old lady asks, as reported in Newsday. “I can’t talk to you right now,” the young man replies, “I’ve just been in an accident.” And that’s how things stood when the police and fire trucks arrived to take control of things. Amazingly, nobody died. Indeed, the young woman who said she had been driving just suffered cuts and bruises. So did her boyfriend. She flunked a breathalyzer test and was charged with DWI. A picture of the huge round hole in the house, car-sized, was taken from the front
lawn and published in Newsday. You can see the backyard with the red sports car in it through the hole in the house. Now, three months later, it turns out, the young woman was not driving. It was the young man who was driving. Bruises on the young woman seen at the hospital showed marks on her right shoulder consistent with a passenger side seatbelt. The blood on the driver’s air bag turned out to be from him, not her. Finally, she confessed. It turns out that Sophia Anderson, 21, of Brooklyn, was persuaded by her boyfriend of two years, Daniel Sajewski, 23, also of Brooklyn, to cover for him. He had been arrested before, he told her. If they arrest me again here, I will (Continued on page 32) have to go to jail.

HIFF (Continued from previous page) tennis tournament weekend in Southampton for the American Cancer Society and it raised an astounding $160,000. This was in September. The END of September. Out of Season. Everybody from the summertime was STILL HERE. This remarkable flooding of the Hamptons with summer visitors out of season is most apparent on Saturday and Sunday when our downtowns are as packed as they are in the summertime. On a brisk October Saturday our Main Streets look like it is July Fourth. On Friday nights well into November the evening traffic coming out on Route 27 is tied up as if the season has never ended. The locals just shake their heads in amazement. Another thing that has happened, and this Robinson certainly did notice, was that within
the last five years some sort of critical mass was reached in the Hamptons involving the film industry. The East End has for 40 years been a gathering place for artists, and for 20 years a gathering place for writers. It is true that over the years there have always been a number of film people coming here, but they have been here more, it seemed, to kind of hide out away from Hollywood. Now Hollywood had followed them. In full force. Robinson and I made a list of people who now live in the Hamptons who are connected with the film industry. It is quite formidable. Here it is. Alan Alda, Steven Spielberg, Alec Baldwin, Roy Scheider, Ben Gazzara, Chevy Chase, Michael Cimino, Griffin Dunn, Kathleen Tuner, John Advilson, Christopher Reeve,

If you needed a “critical mass” of people to be sitting down at tables networking and hiring and making deals and doing all the sorts of things they do at a film festival, well, there it was. And so, the community was ripe for the creation of the Hamptons International Film Festival. The town boards endorsed it. Major corporations have funded it. At least two major motion pictures will be premiered at the festival. And the Mayor of Deauville, France, Countess Anne d’Ornano, will be on hand on behalf of the American Film Festival in Deauville, which has declared the Hamptons Film Festival to be its sister festival. Robinson, who until this day has run the project out of her home, a 200-year-old barn in East Hampton, is now looking for office space. I think it would be a good idea here to describe, physically, just what a visitor to the Hamptons International Film Festival will find during these five days at the end of October. All five of the movie theaters at the United Artists Theatre in East Hampton will be showing films from the festival. There will be films at the Sag Harbor Cinema, at the John Drew Theater in East Hampton and at the Parrish Art Museum in Southampton. The movies will begin at 9 a.m., and there will be showings at 11:45 a.m., at 2 p.m., at 4:30 p.m., at 7 p.m. and at 9:30 p.m. There will be, in theory, a possible total of 150 films shown and a person could see five of them a day or 25 of them in the five days, which are Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Practically all of these films will be films not yet seen by the general public. There will be major motion pictures with big stars—Warner Brothers has promised to premiere two and Robinson believes Columbia Pictures will offer one. There will be student films, art films, shorts. At every screening there will be one short film and one long one. Everyone going to see these movies—the general public—will be invited to vote for their favorite in three different categories. At the end of the festival, awards will be made to the winners. Other awards will be presented by a voting taken by members of the press. “We’ve decided not to invite critics to make awards and prizes this first year,” Robinson told me. “We’d just like to get everybody to come.’’ The cost of seeing an individual film will be $7, Robinson told me. But there will be packages you can buy for seeing multiple films. There will also be student discounts. “We expect to erect a large tent somewhere between the East Hampton Cinema and Guild Hall where people can come and get information about everything. It will be a kind of central point.” I commented that late October might be too cold for a tent, but then I thought about it. Late October is jacket weather. The leaves are turning. It is beautiful out. (Continued on page 38)

Mermaids The Clashing Conundrum That Is Created by These Beasts By Dan Rattiner
D
o mermaids have rights? Frankly, I never thought about this before. The top half certainly has rights. These rights were spelled out by the Universal Declaration of Human Rights at the United Nations in 1948. Like every human being, without regard to race, color, sex, language, religion, politics, national or social origin, birth or status, she has the right to freedom of life, liberty and security of person, freedom from torture or other inhuman treatment, from arbitrary arrest, detention or exile, freedom of speech, freedom of movement, asylum, the right to marry who she chooses, the right to own property, freedom of thought and the freedom of worship, freedom of assembly, freedom of association, freedom from slavery,
freedom from tyranny and the right to a swift trial. And if she is an American mermaid she has still further rights. She has the right to vote, the right to not be discriminated against, the right not to go hungry, to sue, to a parking space, to eat what she wants, to be in charge of her own body, and, if disabled, to have free medical care and a ramp to get into places, a wider bathroom with handles and a seat on the bus. Also, she has the right to bring her dog into a restaurant in a canvas bag. The bottom half of a mermaid also has rights. But it depends on which group she falls into. If she is an endangered mermaid, she has the right to be protected. She can swim where she wants and when she wants, if she is caught on a hook she has to be thrown back, and if the top half of the mermaid tells her to go on land,
bathers have to clear the way, not go near her and not allow any other animals near her either or be subject to fines or jail. If necessary, she has to be taken to a wildlife rescue center, fed, nurtured, restored to health and released back into the wild. She can also be encouraged to mate in order to get her species to rise up from the endangered list to the “threatened” list or, even further, to be delisted.
O
n the other hand, if the bottom half is not endangered, she has to be certified safe to eat by the Pure Food and Drug Act, not raised in an enclosure, be pasture fed, 100% organic, free range and kept refrigerated until used, but, in a restaurant setting, thrown out at the end of every other day. That’s all you need to know about mermaids.
1,200 Telephone Poles Are Useless Duplicates By oliver peterson
S
uffolk County Legislator Jay Schneiderman recently succeeded in passing a bill, on September 13, to rid county roads of some 12,000 double utility poles marring the landscape along the highways and byways on this side of the Island. Despite the absurd number of these unsightly and redundant poles, it seems some local residents never noticed the poles or even knew they aren’t supposed to be this way. “It’s basically like littering,” Schneiderman said of the offending poles, which suspend wires around the county for LIPA, Verizon and Cablevision. “It’s serving no purpose.” The legislator explained that all three companies are supposed to move their wires to the new
poles, but that directive has often been ignored by one, two or all three of them. Wires from the three companies are suspended at different heights, usually with LIPA on top. As each company moves its wires, it chops the pole down to the height of the next set of wires. The next company in line is expected to follow suit until all the wires are moved and the old pole is eliminated. For years, the utilities have had little incentive to take care of this in a timely manner. Until now. “Utilities have abandoned these poles because there has been no financial consequence for leaving them in place,” Schneiderman said, pointing out that new poles are added because their older counterparts are becoming weak and damaged. “Now it will be in their business
interests to quickly remove these poles and relieve our communities of this visual blight.” Under the bill, Suffolk County will assess a penalty of $1,000 per pole per month upon the uppermost utility on the double pole following a 60-day notice period. After all the utilities have been removed, the pole will be subject to a similar penalty. Schneiderman said the County could contract a private vendor to handle the notice and revenue collection for 10% of the fines, which could be as much as $12 million per month. “I’m not getting used to ugly,” Schneiderman said. The Legislator noted that two double poles outside his office in Sag Harbor and next door to his cottage colony in Montauk had irritated him for far too (Cont’d on next page)

Poles (Continued from previous page) long, not to mention an additional 30 along Old Haffner has painted local roadways featuring Montauk Highway in Montauk. “It’s marked prominently the utility poles and wires ‘scenic highway,’” he said of the particularly that line them, yet he never thought much annoying and ironic, poles in Montauk. “It’s about the extra poles. “I haven’t really noticed been bothering me for that—the bigger poles years.” out here,” Haffner said. Schneiderman said “Once I start pointing them out, “It hasn’t affected me.” there were 11,000 some reflection you’ll start seeing them everywhere.” Upon double poles when he however, the artist tried to tackle the issue —Jay Scheiderman explained that, for years ago, but none of him, more poles the companies did the means more lines, right thing, and the number has grown by 1,000. which make for better paintings. “I kind of “It’s not going in the right direction,” he said. like the look of it when I paint it,” he said, unable But not everyone has noticed the poles, and to see the problem. “The lines for me, it’s one local painter says they should stay put. just a whole new aesthetic that doesn’t really For the past decade, North Haven artist Grant bother me,” Haffner added, noting that he’d
actually like to see wind farms in people’s yards. “I think they’re beautiful.” According to Schneiderman, Haffner’s beloved poles may cease to exist one day. Though it’s not likely to happen for many years, the legislator said the utilities should really bury their wires in the future. Until then, Schneiderman said people will become much more aware of the messy poles and wires. “Once I start pointing them out, you’ll start to see them everywhere,” he explained, noting that the issue hasn’t received much publicity. “I think when the poles come down people will notice the difference.” The Legislature could begin giving notice for poles immediately, but Schneiderman said the current bill only covers county roadways, and he’s hoping the local towns and villages will follow this model and adopt similar legislation to clean up their roads as well. He said a more coordinated effort could be mounted at that point for a truly countywide solution.
Car (Continued from page 29) “He told me that the authorities would treat me lightly as a first-time offender,” Sophia said, as reported by Newsday. “(He said) that he would post bail for me, pay for my attorney and take me on a promised vacation to the Hamptons. None of these statements were true, and after I was released from jail, he promised that he would accept responsibility and those promises were also not fulfilled. I feel betrayed by a man who I was in love with and lived with for two years.”
After some alcohol, he suggested that they take his daddy’s red Mercedes convertible for a ride.

Holy Batcave!! A vacation in the Hamptons?? And he reneged?? Sajewski has had four arrests in the last few years. In Suffolk County, he was arrested for selling ecstasy, in Nassau County he was arrested for theft, in Brooklyn he was arrested for criminal possession of marijuana, and again in Brooklyn for driving with a suspended license. It also turns out that the pair were partying in mom and dad’s house in Lloyd Harbor while his parents were away and Sajewski suggested, after some alcohol, that they take his daddy’s red Mercedes convertible for a ride. Sajewski’s defense attorney, Carl Benincasa of Huntington, when told by Newsday of Anderson’s statement, said “We’re not going to engage in this kind of name calling.” Benincasa also told Newsday that his client “absolutely disputes the people’s recitation of the facts.” The DWI charge against Anderson has been dropped. Sajewski is in jail facing new charges. His daddy is not bailing him out. The house they roared through is uninhabitable, and the Mercedes is likely junk. And he never did take her to the Hamptons.

The boat, which has a yellow hull with a line of black and white checkers, features a comfortable airconditioned cabin equipped with a bathroom and an upper viewing deck where riders can enjoy the lovely bay vistas as they cruise around Shelter Island. There has been no word yet on the ferry’s fate, but extending the schedule through September seems to bode well for the future of this endeavor. When they pitched the idea earlier in the year, Hampton Jitney President Geoff Lynch and his business partner Jim Ryan, principal of Response Marine in Mattituck, said the service was a pilot program, which could eventually extend to Montauk and Orient. Ryan also told The East Hampton Star last week that he would like to offer the ferry again, but hopefully earlier next year. Additional passenger ferries and a comprehensive schedule could reduce traffic, though probably not significantly. More importantly, the boats open up the destination villages to more visitors, which could boost the local economies, especially in Greenport, a village that is full of life and an exciting downtown scene that too few Hamptonites bother to visit and enjoy. The Peconic Bay Water Jitney made the trip to Greenport or Sag Harbor that much more alluring with the prospect of an easy ride without the complication of multiple ferries, traffic and parking. The ferry operators also reported that some commuters used the ferry, as they had hoped when hatching the idea. The Water Jitney has received almost exclusively positive reviews, and it has drawn passengers from all around, not just the two 20324 By oliver peterson

Now You Can Become a Celebrity in the Hamptons
T
he East End is known to be both home and a getaway for a bevy of directors, producers, agents, etc. Now that summer has passed, and the crowds have disappeared, there exists a golden opportunity for those aspiring locals who feel they can sing or act. We have “The X Factor,” “America’s Got Talent,” “The Voice” and “American Idol.” So yes, there are a lot of forums, but who wants to travel to wherever they are holding auditions and then wait in line for days. How about a better plan to being discovered? Why not walk into King Kullen, Wild By Nature or even Citarella and just start singing or reciting some
lines? Who knows what entertainment influence may be in the store at that exact moment? Think it won’t work? Recently, a girl in the Philippines walked into a grocery store, wielded a microphone and a portable speaker and started belting out the Whitney Houston classic “I Will Always Love You.” Soon, she had 1.5 million YouTube hits and now has a record contract. For those doubters you can simply google “Philippine Grocery Store Karaoke” and you will find dozens of links from credible news agencies about the story. If you can’t sing and are trying to get recognized for your acting abilities, simply pick your favorite part of a play, movie or book, head over to the produce section and let the

vegetables be your ensemble cast. Natalie Portman was eating pizza at a Long Island pizzeria when she was discovered. In between slices, a Revlon Talent Scout took notice and subsequently signed her to a modeling contract. She was 11 years old. She landed her first role, in The Professional, when she was 13 years old. Charlize Theron was discovered while at a bank. She was throwing a fit because she could not get a check cashed and an agent just happened to be standing in line behind her. He admired the performance and the rest is history. Will Smith was already a rapper, but hadn’t done any acting when he stopped and asked for directions. The guy he asked happened to be none other than Benny Medina, who then cast him as the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. Hollywood and New York are full of stories where former waitresses, bellhops, house painters and even garbage men have been discovered in unusual places and recognized for their talents. They just happened to be in the right place at the right time. And I believe the right place is in a Hamptons grocery store, the time during the Hamptons International Film Festival. Let’s say Billy Joel is tooling around on one of his custom motorcycles and gets thirsty. He whips into the parking lot and runs into the store for a Gatorade. And what does he encounter…Karen singing her heart out. She’s got talent and Joel gets her info and passes it on to his agent. Next thing you know a Grammy is being awarded and Joel is being credited with having discovered a great talent. Or, maybe Andy Cohen is searching for some exotic cheeses and he comes upon a housewife who is reading aloud from the book 50 Shades of Grey. With a little bit of luck she may be on the next season of “The Real Housewives of New York City.” The grocery stores shouldn’t mind. These performances might actually attract more customers. It’s a win-win for everyone. Come on, Hamptonites, “Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free…and your talented waiting to be discovered”. If you don’t get discovered, nothing will have been lost because you can still do your weekly shopping. See you at the grocery store!

Sag Harbor Watches Seaplanes Land Illegally? By dan koontz
T
This doesn’t mean that this story will go away. After all, the planes and helicopters that make their ear-splitting way into East Hampton Airport are perfectly within the law, but summer after summer the controversy continues. That is sure to be the case with seaplanes as well. This will be especially true if, as the Sag Harbor Express reported last week, Fly The Whale intends to make Sag Harbor an actual hub of operations. Because it’s never just about the noise or the outside chance of accidents on the water: it’s always combined with the knowledge that the passengers on those aircraft (nay, air/water-craft!) paid $495 to avoid 495, and THAT story will never go away.

ime passes. The wind blows the pages off the calendar. Another summer past, much like all of the previous ones. The big story of summer 2012? Same as the big story every summer. Wealthy people making a lot of noise flying into East Hampton Airport, and other, presumably less wealthy people who have houses along the flight path, arguing that the planes and helicopters should take a different route. Or, in the more extreme version, that East Hampton Airport should close altogether. How wealthy are the people in the planes? How much does it cost to avoid the traffic on I-495? In an odd bit of numerological symmetry, it costs $495—one-way, that is. That’s the price tag to fly from New York to East Hampton on Fly The Whale. Although Fly The Whale doesn’t actually land at East Hampton Airport—it is in point of fact a SEAPLANE service, and it lands at special moorings off the coast of East Hampton. Then the high-rolling passengers swim for shore? No, they get picked up by a launch and whisked to dry land, or to their waiting yachts.
that it doesn’t appear on any of the standard navigation maps of the area, nor in any of the published regulations. Federal law actually says that seaplanes can land in any navigable waters. It also holds that as soon as a plane hits the water, it’s officially a boat—subject to all of the rules pertaining to boats AND receiving all the privileges of any other watercraft. So Fly The Whale appears to be well within the law as it has been explained to this reporter. Their moorings and taxiing activities are taking place outside of the jurisdiction of the Sag Harbor harbormaster, and as long as they follow the rules of the water while they’re on the water, it would appear that they’re fine.
Seaplanes become boats when they hit water
Fly The Whale, as it happens, is at the center of summer 2012’s big variation on the perennial flight path story. As a seaplane service, Fly The Whale just needs a body of water to land on, and this past summer they decided to set up special moorings in Sag Harbor and then began landing in and taxiing around the harbor in the midst of pleasure boaters. This development combines the traditional nuisance noise issue of low-flying aircraft with the more trendy issue of water safety. The issue of jurisdiction over seaplanes landing in Sag Harbor is somewhat foggy, and could use a little bit of expanded visibility. According to John Kelly, director of operations for Shoreline Aviation, another air service that brings people out from the city, there IS a Sag Harbor ordinance that specifically prohibits seaplanes landing and taxiing within 1,500 feet of the shoreline within the village’s management area. This restriction, however, is apparently a well-kept secret. Kelly notes

HIFF: Golden Starfish Awards and Other Highlights
T
he Hamptons International Film Festival has long been a haven for thriving indie and mass-market films. The HIFF hands out multiple awards every year, including the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation Feature Film Prize in Science and Technology, the Kodak Award for cinematography and various audience awards as well. Perhaps most prestigious are the Golden Starfish awards, presented in the past to many performers and films that have gone on to Oscar glory. The Golden Starfish Awards are open to both foreign and domestic films, and often include a cash prize, along with gifts from various sponsors. It’s interesting to put U.S. and international films together in one category without forcing some kind of division, like the Academy Awards does. It promotes the concept of film as a worldwide communal art form. The Misfortunates, which took home Cannes honors in 2009 was a winner of three Golden Starfish Awards for Best Narrative Feature, Screenplay and Cinematography. The year before, Troubled Water (which made its U.S. debut at the festival) won the Golden Starfish, while the documentary feature Herb and Dorothy (also making its U.S. debut at the HIFF in 2008) took home a prize as well. The HIFF’s Golden Starfish seems to have a tendency to go to powerful films about societal issues, a nice change of pace from typical awards-season fluff. Richard Gere will be receiving a Golden

20 Years (Continued from page 30) On Halloween all the school kids dress up and go out for candy door to door and it is not too cold. Robinson showed me a paragraph she had written in the literature about the festival. “October is the glorious secret month of the East End Indian Summer. It is the best time to enjoy the casual elegance of the Hamptons that are simultaneously sophisticated and rural. The natural wonders are shared by an assortment of people; CEO’s, sailors, world-class authors, baymen, filmmakers, visual artists, gardeners, farmers and other taste-makers.’’ *** So Joyce Robinson wakes up in the middle of the night at her home in East Hampton last August with this idea. So how did it get from
there to here? who Steve Ross had just designated as his “What I needed before anything was a corporate successor. And I made my presentation and sponsor. Or several corporate sponsors.

And she took me to see Gerald Levin film festivals there looking at films. He spent two weeks at Cannes. There will be several benefits for the Festival during the summertime. Naomi and Christian Wolffer are planning one at Sagg Pond Farms on July 3. Another will take place at Jonathan Canno’s home though no date has been set. Naomi Lazard of Amagansett, a writer and designer, is working on a competition for a poster design among local East End school children. She has been selected as the festival’s cultural coordinator. Stony Brook University will offer courses in the history of film and workshops in film making on weekends over an extended period at East End locations still to be determined. The courses can be taken for University credit. Dan Ireland, a producer who founded the successful Seattle Film Festival (now in its 11th year), has been hired as director of the Hamptons International Film Festival. Reciprocating with Deauville, one or two days of the Hamptons festival will be devoted to a program of films from France and the EEC. An opening night party will be held at Nick & Toni’s. Other parties being put together are one at the Parrish Art Museum, at LTV in Wainscott, one at the Victor D’Amico Art Institute in Napeague and two at Manhattan restaurants, Planet Hollywood and Serendipity. There will be brunch sponsored by the Bank of the Hamptons. There will be a producers and screenwriters symposium at Guild Hall with a moderator and questions and answers from the audience. Three major film figures will receive tributes at the Hamptons International Film Festival. Each tribute will include 30-40 minutes of film clips followed by an onstage question and answer period. Between two and four major international directors will attend, bringing with them their latest film, their favorite film and a protégé with his work. A festival poster is to be created by artist Eric Fischl and will for sale beginning the end of June. Among the educational workshops offered will be film editing by Viva Knight, the former director of the Victor D’Amico Institute of Art in Napeague. And the list goes on and on.

What’s Happening at the San Gennaro Festival? By alexandra andreassen
N
othing is better than an outdoor festival on a crisp fall day—add some delicious Italian food to it and you have the San Gennaro Feast of the Hamptons. This year, it will be held on Saturday and Sunday, October 6 and 7, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. at the Long Island Railroad Station on Good Ground Road in Hampton Bays. With over 50 food and non-food vendors, the weekend is sure to be a huge hit. This is the feast’s second year in the Hamptons (held for the first time last October) and it’s sponsored by the Hampton Bays Chamber of Commerce. Features besides the vendors include a carnival, a raffle to win a Fiat, a parade on Saturday at 11 a.m., and fireworks on Sunday evening at 9 p.m. to end thing with a bang (or several). Five live bands and a DJ
Some may recognize the name of the feast, which has been made popular in the U.S. due to Little Italy’s celebration in Manhattan. Their 11-day event, complete with a renowned cannoli-eating competition, has inspired the festival in the Hamptons. “Why can’t we have something like that out here?” said Dom Spoto, a member of the feast’s committee. San Gennaro is the patron saint of Naples, Italy, who died as a martyr in 305 A.D. He was beheaded for his views and his refusal to cooperate with local pagan officials. After his beheading, legend has it, a woman collected some of his blood and contained it in two glass vials, perfectly sealed and enclosed in a metal case with glass so that it can be viewed at the
Franciscan Church of Saint Clare in Naples. Periodically, the dried, dark blood in the vials will inexplicably begin frothing and bubbling and turn bright red. Believers call this the Miracle of the Blood. Many Italians turn to Gennaro in prayer for protection from fire, earthquakes and drought. One of the main reasons for the festival here is, as Spoto said, “We thought we’d be able to bring some business and some people out to the Hamptons in the off-season.” Last year’s event drew crowds upwards of 20,000 people, and the organizers hope to do even better this year. The weekend is surely not to be missed— your taste buds will thank you. www.sangennarofeastofthehamptons.com.

Making Kodak Moments with a Smartphone By MATTHEW APFEL
As October slips over the East End, we are once again being treated to the natural beauty that makes this place so special. Fall foliage, changing skies, pumpkin patches, and weathered beaches— everything changes in October, and Kodak moments are everywhere. Unfortunately, Kodak is pretty much out of business these days. But our trusty smartphones have stepped up to put great photographs in
the palms of our hands. Here’s a snapshot of four cool photography apps that can bring out the Ansel Adams in all of us. The Building Block: Hipstamatic I’ve written about Hipstamatic before, and how it compares to the wildly popular Instagram. Actually, I don’t think there’s any comparison at all. Instagram is a social network that is driven by photos. Hipstamatic is a photography app—and a fantastic one at that. Hipstamatic isn’t cheap, at least by app standards. You have to buy assorted “lenses,” “flash bulbs” and “films,” which have cool names that evoke photographic history, from black-and-white film of the 1930s to Kodachrome
from the groovy ’70s. These are actually special effects programs that simply alter the images you shoot, but it’s all part of the fun. Hipstamatic isn’t idiot-proof, either. Like a real camera, you need to experiment with different combinations and settings, but if you’re patient the results can be breathtaking. I spent a foggy morning at the Montauk Lighthouse with my kids and took dozens of photos that I never imagined I could ever produce. And, the images are rich enough to blow up to 11” x 17” prints. Another great feature: Hipstamatic now lets you store your favorite combinations and settings, which saves lots of time when you’re trying to set up future shots. Bottom Line: This is the building block—a must-have photo app that’s well worth the time and expense at $1.99. The Trick Shot: Color Splash Color Splash is a limited-purpose effects app that does one thing extremely well: It lets you convert any photo from your library into a black-and-white image—but you can mark which parts and details should retain their original color. So a simple photo of a Granny Smith apple sitting on your kitchen counter can now become a truly artistic shot with the backdrop in black and white, but the apple in bright green. Fun. Bottom Line: This is a one-trick pony, but it’s a very good trick indeed. Worth the $.99 price. The Adjustor: Darkroom Darkroom is another limited-purpose effects app that solves a very real problem: what to do when shooting in dim light. Flashbulbs are the Achilles heel of the smartphone. They’re terrible. I rarely use my flash, if ever, because it splashes a tiny beam of light that’s so narrow it barely helps the image—except to create red eyes that need to be corrected later on. Darkroom can really help. It essentially freezes the camera until everything in the shot is still or motionless before snapping the photo. The result is that images are distorted by light splashes here or there. Obviously you wouldn’t want to use this app at a rock concert or sporting event, where lots of things are in motion, but it can produce great results when shooting still life at dusk or dawn. Bottom Line: It’s free, it’s fun, give it a try.

The Finishing Touch: Snapseed Everyone always focuses on apps that help shoot better photographs, but that’s only part of the equation. Once you’ve taken the photos, you still need to edit and manage them—and Snapseed is a great solution. Snapseed lets you easily adjust photos for better viewing and printing. You can improve contrast, brightness and sharpness with a simple swipe on your tablet. It also has a tilt & shift feature that lets you move different parts of the image forward or backward. Cool. But the best feature is targeted editing. You can apply different effects to different portions of the photo, which gives you a new level of control and detail. Bottom Line: It’s not cheap—$4.99 to buy—but an important tool for polishing your shots.

Playing the part at the Montauk Manor on Halloween
GUEST ESSAY
Monk of the Month By terence lane
O
n Halloween Kathy takes a miserable call at the front desk. Young woman says her boyfriend’s out of control. He’d been drinking and may have swallowed some pills. He’s already struck her once. There are two small boys in the room. Kathy looks at me with eyes that exude a tired call to duty, a look I’d seen before and would see again. We have to respond to the call. I sigh. I tighten my sash and adjust my hood. I’m dressed head to foot in monk robes. My boss thought it would be funny if I came to work in a costume. And she was right. The monk act had been hilarious earlier when I was driving the hotel shuttle. I’d really gotten into character. When the drunks I was driving asked where they could find some tail in this town, I simply replied: “but thou monk driver is chaste, my good men. He knoweth not where thy squirrel curls its tail.” I excelled at that sort of thing; firing off witty, creative tidbits for the amusement of the inebriated, my fan base, my niche. It was only when I took out my good pen and yellow paper to “write this stuff down,” as non-writers aware of my interest constantly insisted I do, could I not hack it. As a creative writer I’d seen no validation for my efforts. I had an irrational fear that my manuscripts weren’t even getting delivered to the offices of the important literary journals, but burning up ignominiously in the blast of their atmosphere. Some wouldn’t even mail the rejection slip, leaving me to wallow for an entire year, believing, grinding my teeth, strung out like a junkie hopped up on pure, 100% uncut hope. I had a girlfriend who thought Terence Lane is working on his Masters of Fine Arts degree in Writing and Literature at Stony Brook Southampton. Later this month he will travel to Thailand to teach English.
I was the best writer going, which, every time she reminded me of it, evoked terrific laughter from every corner of the room. If we were outside, it came from the skies. Nowhere was safe. Mockery lurked in the bowl of water below my shaving, in the heart and mind of this humble man, this hooded monk. Kathy and I cross the lobby and head toward the room. She leads, I shuffle after. The sash is on good and tight around my waist but the hood is proving to be a problem. It keeps slipping back. I almost ask Kathy for a pin— a bobby?—but feel stupid doing so and let the words spoil on my lips. Kathy knocks on the door and it opens immediately. It’s the girlfriend. Oily hair. Bags under her eyes like melon slices. “Take them,” she says. Below her stand two beautiful little boys. It occurs to me I haven’t seen children this young in a long time. They are not identical twins but nearly. Golden hair. These wise guy blue eyes. I reach for one and he submits like this is an old routine. He fits his legs around my side and pushes back my hood. Kathy takes the other boy. The girlfriend gets a diaper bag. Beyond her are the bottoms of two dirty feet on the sofa bed. A mess of dirty blond hair at the other end. He seems to be unconscious. “Miss, you need to stay with us,” I say to the girlfriend. “I told him,” she weeps, over and over. I fall back and put my arm around her, not to comfort her so much as to keep her moving. We get them into a room on the other side of the hotel. I sit with the boys on either side of me. Kathy puts on a cartoon about trucks. The boys keep reaching for my hood. I bow my head to them. Kathy leaves for the lobby to call the cops. The girlfriend is splayed on the carpet rifling through the diaper bag. “Forgot their (Cont’d on page 44) formula,” she curses,

Oh Deer! It’s Fall Again By sally flynn
Well, it’s official: autumn is here. I’ve spoken with several maple trees and tried to get them to turn colors in some kind of sequential order, so that the colors last longer. I just hate it when they all seem to deliberately peak together, and for three days the Island is glorious in autumnal splendor, and then, just out of spite, they drop their leaves all at once. Then it’s rake, rake, rake, bag, bag, bag, bang, bang, bang (deer season), and suddenly,

In other, other words, deer can’t see pink either. Which begs the question, how many girl and gay hunters (I’m sure there are a few) are out there in that hideous marmalade mash when they could be in flamingo pink? It’s hard enough to look good in the woods with all the dirt and buggy things they have out there without having to try to do it in orange. Bring on the pink fatigues and there’d be more hunters, I bet. Of course, the only thing wrong with adding those who hunt in pink is that whole thing about being quiet—like for hours at a time— just sitting in the dirt with bugs crawling all over, sipping hot soup, coffee or beer and not talking, all at the same time. It’s really quite an accomplishment when I stop to think about it. Sitting silently in an orange outfit waiting for something to walk by that you can shoot. It’s like shopping I suppose, but you make the kill with bullets instead of credit cards and you eat what you kill instead of spreading it on the couch to improve the decor.

W
hen “American Idol” begins airing in January, hundreds of would-be songbirds will find themselves looking into the eyes of three new judges—country star Keith Urban, outrageous rapper Nicki Minaj, and the woman whose style most of them have tried to imitate—Mariah Carey. Pick any one of her 18 top 100 singles, which, according to Billboard, nudges her ahead of Elvis and right behind the Beatles for the most songs in the top 100, and you will hear in a heartbeat why Carey has influenced a generation of young singers. This influence has been so enormous that Sean Daly of The St. Petersburg Times wrote that the “American Idol” hopefuls seemed to fall into three categories—“The talented kids, the weird kids, and the Mariahs.” With a five-octave range, a vocal quality that ranges from R & B smokysultry-sexy to an insanely high register worthy of the “Queen of the Night,” all wrapped up in a mastery of the melisma, Carey has many admirers and imitators, but no equal. Born on Long Island, Carey now has an estimated wealth of $500 million, a lingerie closet in her home that was featured on “MTV Cribs,” and bona fide status as a diva. But before “Visions of Love,” Carey’s first hit single, took over the airwaves in 1990, Carey’s life was waiting tables, taking odd jobs, and getting a lot of doors slammed in her face. Carey’s father was an African-American aeronautical engineer and her mother an Irish-American opera singer and vocal coach. Mariah’s music talent was evident early on. Carey heard her mother practicing one of Gilda’s arias from Rigoletto, and imitated her, singing in Italian, just as her mother had done. She was three years old. By high school, Carey had started writing poetry and setting her words to music. With session drummer Ben Margulies, Carey co-wrote and recorded a foursong demo that she shopped around. By now, Carey was sharing an apartment in the city with four other girls, waiting tables, and trying unsuccessfully to get someone in the recording industry to spark to her demo. It was ’80s pop star Brenda K. Starr, who became friends with Carey and passed the demo to Tommy Mottolo, head of Columbia Records, at an industry party. What happened next has been called a Cinderella story. After playing the demo on his way home, Mottolo was so impressed with Carey’s voice he turned the car around and returned to the party to find her. Carey had already gone home. Mottolo spent the next two weeks trying to find her, eventually reaching her through Starr’s management. Mottolo signed Carey, and her first self-titled album gave her four singles
Mariah Carey SINGER
Carey imitated her mother practicing arias from Rigoletto. She was 3 years old. that all reached number one on the charts. During her Columbia years, Carey released her Emotions and Music Box albums, which gave Carey one of her biggest hits, “Hero.” That same year, Carey and Mottolo married in front of a star-studded guest list that included Barbara Streisand and Billy Joel. Next for Carey was Merry Christmas, a holiday album that included “All I Want for Christmas Is You,” which became an instant holiday classic and provided the climactic moment in the film Love Actually. As Carey’s career continued to flourish, her marriage to Mottolo floundered. In 1997, they would divorce, creating a strained atmosphere
for Carey professionally as well. In 2000, she would jump ship to Virgin Records, signing on the dotted line for a payday of $100 million for a fivealbum deal. Carey would later describe her experience at Virgin as “a complete and total stress-fest,” and would soon move to Island Records. After that first wave of consistent success, Carey’s career was experiencing growing pains. She was also trying her hand at acting, often receiving praise for her performances even in projects that were less successful with critics. The Emancipation of Mimi, Carey’s 2005 release, brought the singer back to prominence with hits like “We Belong Together” and “Shake It Off.” Mimi earned Carey 10 Grammy nods. She took home three awards, for Best Contemporary R &B Album, Best R & B Song and Best Female R&B Performance. Even Carey’s personal life hit a new high. She met actor Nick Cannon while filming the music video for “Bye Bye.” They married on her estate in the Bahamas. Her acting career was flourishing, too, with a role as a social worker in the hit film Precious, earning her praise from Variety, which described her acting as “pitch perfect.” Carey sang at Obama’s Neighborhood Inaugural Ball, and joined Tony Bennett on his Duets album. On her third wedding anniversary, Carey gave birth to twins Monroe and Moroccan, after a difficult pregnancy marked by high blood pressure and gestational diabetes. Motherhood didn’t seem to slow down Carey’s output as a singer/songwriter. She was soon working on her 14th album, due to be released in spring 2013, and over the past summer released the first single “Triumphant.” Also in 2013, look for Carey to star in The Butler, sharing the big screen with acting notables, Jane Fonda, Forrest Whittaker, Robin Williams, Oprah Winfrey, and Alan Rickman. Of course, Carey will be gracing the small screen with her current stint as “American Idol” judge, netting her $18 million to listen to a lot of wouldbe’s trying to sound like Mariah Carey. Since husband Cannon has been hosting “America’s Got Talent” since 2009, the couple has serious creds in reality TV. For the past three years, Cannon and Carey have been enjoying summers in the Hamptons, renting suitable digs for their lifestyle. One summer, “suitable” was Tommy Hilfiger’s five-bedroom East Hampton home with a rental price tag of $350,000. With 1-year-olds Monroe and Moroccan in tow this year, the couple opted for a 7,500 square foot, 6-bedroom, 6.5 bath North Haven home sitting on a very private two acres. The home, which has a $15 million price tag, has a negative edge pool, floating cabanas, and smart house functions that can all be operated from an iPad. Not bad at all for a “local girl.”

Guest (Continued from page 41) getting up. “You should probably stay here,” I say. “They haven’t had nothing to eat,” she says, walking across the room, leaving. The phone on the wall starts to ring. Kathy says, “Get out here now.” When I get to the lobby a crowd has formed. Boyfriend has come to and is choking girlfriend on the baroque sofa. He’s wearing white underwear only. I see Kathy. We start toward the sofa. Kathy creeps up and touches his shoulder. He unfurls like a snake, landing a closed-fist blow to the side of Kathy’s head. My heart thuds. If I thought I would have had a better chance to act, I might have hesitated, but suddenly I have boyfriend in a serious headlock. He beats on my ribcage. I slam him into the near wall and we both go to the ground. Where’s back-up? Why is everyone watching me and not helping? Where are the cops? Somehow I’ve landed on top of boyfriend. Pinning this guy is terribly awkward. Being on him is like riding a tremendous female leatherback turtle, postpartum, as she makes her instinctive dash for the sea. And he stinks. He smells like Velveeta and armpit. My hand has already slipped into that armpit several times and is now shiny with brine. I hear the cheap material under my own armpit tear away from the greater garment. He’s tiring. I can feel the musculature relaxing in his back. “Where are the cops?” I yell at last, a note of terror bleeding into the question, reminding me that this has rattled me, that
I made a lucky move, that this guy, had he not been so blitzed on whatever, could have seriously damaged this shuttle-driving faux monk writer. From the corner of one fiery eyeball I see the cops. Thank God. Euphoria washes over me. It feels heroic to be found victorious in the throes of a citizen’s arrest. But then the cop roars: “Which one is it?” and my heart almost stops. I realize that we both look like criminals, I in my ragged holy man’s attire, he, shirtless and piebald with blotches, hickeys, and scratches. “Not the monk,” someone yells. I want to reward that person. Come ye, come ye and receive your holy stipend! The cops dive onto us. I’m eye to eye with the butt of a large handgun. I begin to worm my way out. Doing so removes the costume. Inch by inch, I molt back into my khakis and navy polo shirt. I rise. A woman commends me as I pass. I attempt a smile but grimace instead. My mouth feels unnatural, smacked. In the office, Kathy and I hug. I slip into the bathroom and wash my arms up to elbows, the way I’ve seen surgeons do in sitcoms. I wash my face. My eyes. My hair. The police want to speak with me. They need a statement. I notice the officer’s cheap little pad and pen. I judge these because they are my tools of the trade. They are things no one seems to care about but I have purchased in bulk, with careful attention to color, tip size, rule, and bond. I am not so particular about anything else. The officer jots. The pen stops working.
He apologizes and scribbles in the corner to revive the ink. I want to say something. I want to rant about ballpoint pens. I want to share my frustration. But the ink returns. “There,” he says, and I proceed. There’s a six-pack of Blue Point beer in the fridge. I always imagine myself coming home after a long night and cracking a cold one but mostly I just come home and sit in my chair for a good 20 minutes thinking. Tonight, I’m aroused by a thought. My statement: they’re going to publish it. Next Thursday I can’t find the newspaper anywhere in Montauk. I’ve gone to Ronnie’s, the Corner Store, Martell’s, the IGA. In White’s department store the cashier says the paper doesn’t arrive until ten. I look at my watch. I can’t think of anything in the world I want to do for the next two hours. When I get the paper I read each incident. It’s almost entirely DWI’s. I spend two seconds on each word, savoring it, trying not to read ahead. I realize the names of the offending men and women often use their middle initial. I start to lose patience and accelerate my reading. I find it. An employee of the hotel was able to restrain the man until police arrived. This can’t be right. An employee? That could be anyone. I remember the officer’s impotent plastic pen. His affectless scribbles. People don’t realize the importance of a good pen. I worry he couldn’t read his own writing. An employee of the hotel. Why can’t I get used to this? Must I drink and drive? My name isn’t here. They didn’t publish it.

It Ain’t Over ’til the Fat Lady... “The season” on the East End no longer ends with Labor Day. Not even close. There’s so much going on every weekend—and some weekdays—it’s difficult to choose how to spend one’s time. Last Saturday found me at the Southampton Historical Museum’s Harvest Day dressed as a “baker woman” from 1851. I couldn’t stay for any of the other SeptemberFest activities throughout Southampton Village—I had to get to the Old Whalers’ Church in Sag Harbor for the big $10,000 raffle drawing. I didn’t win but the live band, Suzy on the Rocks, really rocked. I’m pretty sure that this occasion marked the first time in this 168-year-old church’s history that “Lady Marmalade” was heard inside. Sunday of course was devoted to prayer—and another hot musical performance. Edna’s Kin played an afternoon concert at Christ Church in Sag Harbor. They were a huge hit all round, but the “world premiere” of their original bluegrass tune “Mount Misery Breakdown” really slayed ‘em. On Monday I attended jazz legend Hal McKusick’s beautiful memorial service in the city. I wouldn’t have missed it and it was definitely an East End thing. Hal was a Sag Harborite for decades. I took him one of my
apple pies on Monday, because he loved them that my “partner in crime,” Karen, and I wore like the Massachusetts farm boy he once was. all linen, cotton, silk and wool—layers of the I’ve never been a jazz aficionado but somehow stuff—and showed kids how to knead bread I always know when it’s Hal playing the sax or dough.

Sulzberger’s tenure with the Times lasted three decades, during which time the newspaper won 31 Pulitzer Prizes. He is widely credited with expanding the paper’s readership, as the Times’ introduced a national edition and expanded to include more feature sections. Sulzberger also helped to make strides for the newspaper publishing industry as a whole, as the paper won a key victory in the 1964 Supreme Court case New York Times v. Sullivan. The decision dealt with libel lawsuits and public officials, and it set free speech and freedom of the press precedents. Sulzberger became publisher of the Times in 1963, and he held the position until 1992 when his son Arthur Ochs Sulzberger Jr. took over the family business. Sulzberger stayed on as chairman and chief executive of The New York Times Co. until 1997, and he remained on the company’s board of directors until 2002.

Slow Food East End Presents Grants to Local School Gardens at Annual Meeting BRIDGEHAMPTON: Slow Food East End awarded $4,000 in aid to school gardens at its annual meeting in Bridgehampton on Sunday. Grants of $500 each went to eight area schools: Bridgehampton School, East Hampton High School, Greenport School, Hampton Bays Middle School, Sag Harbor School, Southold School, Springs School and Tuckahoe School. “Being able to help our local schools start and develop school gardens has been a mission of our East End chapter of Slow Food since our founding in 2004 at the American Hotel,” said Mary Morgan, president of SFEE. The program is supported by the Levine family and the Josh Levine Memorial Foundation. The grants were specifically tailored to meet the needs of already established gardens to help with day-to-day needs.
SOUTHAMPTON: Southampton Hospital and Stony Brook University have announced the signing of a nonbinding letter of intent toward the building of a new medical facility on the Stony Brook Southampton campus, which will replace the hospital on Meeting House Lane in Southampton Village that opened in 1909. Before any final agreement moves forward, both parties will undergo a due diligence process. The plan is for funds to be raised through private donations to build a new 125-bed facility that will be part of the Stony Brook Medicine health care system, although the exact location on the campus remains undetermined. Southampton Hospital has had an affiliation with Stony Brook since 2008. “Southampton Hospital can provide a valuable teaching and research environment for Stony Brook University students,” said Stony Brook University President Samuel L. Stanley Jr., M.D. in a statement, “contributing highly trained healthcare professionals to meet the East End’s needs as the population grows and ages.”
Wolves Invade Sag Harbor?
Tesla Science Center Meets Goal
Tom Ratcliffe III
EAST HAMPTON: It was a historic hour in East Hampton: Mary’s Marvelous officially opened on Railroad Avenue last Wednesday. The first customers included curious regulars from the Amagansett location. (Above is a photo of Mary Schoenlein with first-hour customers Michelle and Annie.) As the weather turns colder, we’re betting that East Hamptonites are pretty happy about the addition of Mary’s famous hot chocolate to the village’s culinary scene.
TWILIGHTHAMPTON: Riddle me this: “A wolf, a goat and a cabbage must be taken to the other side of the harbor. You have a boat, which is not large enough to take more than one of them. If you leave the wolf with the goat, the wolf will eat the goat. If you leave the goat with the cabbage, the cabbage will be eaten.” Over the weekend, it seems a clever Hamptonite was so pleased with his solution to this conundrum that he decided to bring it to life. (re: accompanying photo). Other word on the street is that the wolves are in town for the Hamptons International Film Festival to promote the next Twilight film.
SHOREHAM: Tesla Science Center at Wardenclyffe is pleased to announce the successful completion of its recent Internet-based crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo.com. The effort was spearheaded by Seattle-based cartoonist Matthew Inman (www.theOatmeal.com). It raised $1,370,511 to help the Tesla Science Center purchase Wardenclyffe in Shoreham, the only remaining laboratory in the world where scientist and inventor Nikola Tesla is known to have worked. Inman launched the fundraising campaign by challenging his legion of blog followers to meet the goal.

Drink in the North Fork!
The Winemaker Studio: For All Tastes
A
n adorable toddler clings to his very-tattooed father, his ‘sippy-cup’ in direct contrast to his daddy’s wine glass on the small wooden bar. Eyeengaging artwork dots the walls, while spirited young couples fill the Winemaker Studio’s small storefront tasting room in Peconic with laughter, stories and wine commentary. They are drinking, recounting great flavors (‘Ah! Remember that chocolate cabernet with the truffles in Sonoma?’) enjoying a fabulous fall day of wine tasting on the North Fork. Tasting room manager, Chris Fanjul, an affable and extremely knowledgeable fellow, discusses the attributes of the different wines and winemakers that the studio features with the customers. He explains the artisanal approach taken by owners and wine makers Anthony and Sarah Nappa. “Our place is an experience,” says Sarah. “It’s a little different. We treat the store as a cooperative, featuring a set group of five wine makers that we carry on a regular basis. They are small producers, hand-on,” she explains. “No one has their own vineyards. They all purchase their fruits… As a small wine maker, you can buy whatever is good that year.” Anthony has been making wines for over ten years and makes a few different wines every year. He sources the grapes each season, working with vineyards where he “knows their growing practices and has a personal relationship,” says Sarah. “When we set up this place, we were thinking about where we wanted to hang out—but we also wanted
to appeal to people who are really interested in wine. We have a lot of specialized product, unusual and unique local wines. This year we added a beer on tap and some bottled beers: Southampton Publick house, and a New York State Spirits tasting event. We try to showcase the best the region has to offer.” Both Sarah Nappa and the Winemaker Studio are charming and the wines are delicious. (I not only tasted and enjoyed the 2009 Nobel Roth Late Harvest Reisling, I “needed” to bring home a few bottles to share.) And Anthony and Sarah’s path to Peconic has a charm of its own. Sarah was taking a semester abroad in New Zealand studying animal science and Anthony was in school there for Oenology (wine making). He was from Massachusetts and she from Colorado. They became friends but went their own ways, keeping in touch. When time and circumstance finally put them A toast to local wines! both in the same state—Sarah was in New York City in culinary school and became Sous Chef at North Fork Table and Inn and Anthony was making wine at a vineyard on the North Fork—they experienced the magic that happens when two fine wines come together: a great blend was developed. They married in January of 2012 and together, they debuted Anthony Nappa wines. Starting with one
wine called Nemesis, a Pinot Noir, they have built the brand up enough to open the retail space. The building that houses the Winemaker Studio was built in the 1920s and still has the original tin roof that shelters the daily happy hour from 5-7 p.m., when wine purchases are 30% off regular price. Occasionally a customer will pick up the guitar in the corner. A fun and welcoming place, people can bring their dogs and hang out for a while, getting a taste of the lifestyle Sarah and Anthony have created for themselves. “We are fortunate to be able to do something we love,” says Sarah. “And we look forward to the off season—that’s when we can really enjoy the ‘real’ North Fork.” They cook dinners with friends at their home in Southold, where they are care for eight chickens, two beehives, two dogs and two cats. They like to just kick back, sometimes dreaming about the future. “One of our goals is to be self-sustaining...We love being able to have fresh fish and we’re trying to grow and preserve a lot of our fruits and vegetables,” she says. “But we still need to go to the grocery for a few things… you can’t grow cleaning supplies!” 2885 Peconic Lane, Peconic. 774-641-7488, winemaker-studio.com/tws_home.html.

Loving Shinn Estate Vineyards
A
big trend now is organic food—organic meat, organic vegetables and fruits, organic everything. But what about organic wine? When you actually think about organic farming it seems like a no-brainer because that’s how all farmers grew their crops before the nasty pesticides and other chemicals were developed. Today some farmers are trying to bring back the old way of growing crops. Barbara Shinn and her husband, David Page, are the owners, and growers, of Shinn Estate Vineyards in Mattituck. This duo prides itself on its biodynamic farming techniques and having a successful vineyard and winery based on sustainable values. They have allowed their vineyard to become more in tune with its natural surroundings and develop into its own ecosystem. For example, on their 20 acres, they

can hear the bees forging for clover and, over time, can see the visual difference other vital insects can make. In addition, Shinn and Page farm by the lunar calendar, something that has been long forgotten and many other farmers think is just folklore, but it actually works. Not only is this winery in line with nature, it is a beautiful place to go. When you first pull in, there is a four-room bed and breakfast to your left that is open all year round. It looks delightfully quaint. Parking is in the back, which puts you almost in the vineyard itself. The tasting room is rustic with its wooden tables and tasting bar. Barbara’s black-and-white dog runs around greeting all the guests—he is a big hit. Shinn and Page use the fermentation room as a “spill over” tasting room, but once all the steel barrels are full, there is no more room for people. The day that I was there, Barbara informed me that in about 10

days they were going out to hand pick some grapes to start fermenting. In the corner of the fermentation room Barbara also pointed out a couple of copper still pots and explained that they had a distilling license as well. At Shinn Vineyards, Page distills eau de vie and grappa, which is sold at the tasting room. Next I was shown the lovely wine library where Barbara holds private events and, occasionally, on a Saturday, she will bring some customers in and open older bottles of wine as a bonus sampling. Then it was time for me to taste some of their wonderful wines! On the beautiful Sunday my boyfriend and I went to Shinn Estates, Barbara started us off with, naturally, the “First Fruit” Sauvignon Blanc, which is made from the first fruit of the harvest. It was clean and crisp and would pair nicely with seafood. We then tried the rosé, which was darker than any rosé I had ever seen. It was refreshing with hints of strawberry and watermelon; perfect for summer, of course. Thirdly, we tasted the Estate Merlot, which was strong yet sweet with chocolate and cherry flavors. Next on the list was the “Brut” Sparkling with its tiny little bubbles. This made the sparkling wine not as harsh as some others, resembling French Champagne. Last, but not least, was the Wickham’s Pear Cider. The pears used in this dessert wine come from Wickham’s Fruit Farm in Cutchogue and make for a wonderfully sweet after-dinner drink. There is much more to be tasted at Shinn—each wine is different from the next, and they are all fantastic. Even some of the names given to these wines sound tranquil and come from a place of love. There’s Coalescence, a blend of Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, and Gewurztraminer with citrus notes; Haven, which smells of dried apricots; Grace and Clarity, both deep reds and finally Veil, a 2009 vintage white. On Saturdays and Sundays, Barbara and David have vineyard walks where people can learn more about their sustainable way of farming and taste some of their wine. And just think—you can drink more because it’s healthier for you, right? Shinn Estate Vineyards 2000 Oregon Road Mattituck, 631-804-0367, www.shinnestatevineyards.com.

ART EVENTS
at Peter Marcelle Gallery in Bridgehampton

W
esthampton Beach Village will once again be abuzz with artisans and craftsmen, and those who enjoy shopping and admiring their wares, when the Annual Greater Westhampton Chamber of Commerce Fall 2012 Columbus Day Weekend Arts & Crafts Show runs October 6-8. This year, the event includes more than 75 vendors, who will assemble around the Westhampton Beach Village Green and Gazebo, rain or shine, between 10 a.m. and 5 p.m. Saturday, Sunday and Monday. Visitors can expect to find a creative mix of watercolors, jewelry, pottery, furniture, sculpture, glassworks, fiber work, stained glass, shell art, metalwork, clay, acrylics, photography, oils and much more. The Greater Westhampton Chamber of Commerce Board of Directors and the show’s producers approve the quality of each participating artist and craftsperson. “We jury everyone who comes into the show,” art show director John David said, though many exhibitors return year after year. He explained that the Chamber makes sure all crafts are actually handmade, and “not bought in China.” The artist or craftsman must sell his or her own work, but “once in a blue moon,” spouses or partners of artists have been allowed to represent them. “It has to be well displayed and well laid out,” David said, noting that he makes sure to avoid a flea market atmosphere. Each vendor is given a 10-square-foot area and any tents used must be white—in order to create an attractive and cohesive look for the show, which has
been running each fall for more than 30 years. “It draws a lot of business into the community,” David said, explaining that the show also creates revenue to fund the Chamber. Admission is free for shoppers and art appreciators, but each vendor pays for a spot on the Village Green. People come “by the thousands,” the director said. “Especially during the holiday weekend, we could easily have 5,000 attendees.” Exhibitors/vendors cover a wide range of media and styles, and the Chamber tries to keep that balance by limiting the number of people selling any one particular thing. For example, David said only 13-14 jewelry makers are allowed to show, otherwise the event could begin to look like a jewelry show, which is not in line with their concept. Among the artists registered, photorealistic painter and Jamesport resident Charles Wildbank said he’s exhibited at the show since 1979. The painter is showing original pieces and affordable giclée editions, including still life, floral, figurative, landscape and more mystical creations. This year, Wildbank is unveiling a new 57” x 57” painting called “Dune Sky” as well as some recent portraits. He is well known for much larger paintings, including his new ocean series—which can be as long as 14 feet—but that work is too big for the outdoor venue. “It is a great market for medium-sized works,” the artist explained, noting, “My large masterpiece is shown a few blocks away at an open house on Beach Lane” with Allegra Dioguardi, owner of Styled

and Sold home staging. Wildbank’s art can be seen hanging in numerous locations around the East End, including the Dan’s Papers offices in Southampton. Westhampton artist JoAnn Maroldo is showing her award-winning oils and pastels, as seen in Southampton’s Chrysalis Gallery and travel magazines for the Village of Westhampton Beach. Remsenburg artist Meryle King is displaying her rag rugs, which include fabric from unexpected sources, like old blue jeans, while teacher and writer Anindita Ghosh is presenting her jewelry made from materials collected during her travels around the world. Ghosh’s pieces comprise traditional designs and original creations. The dozens of artisans at the show come from the local towns, hamlets and villages, and places a little farther afield.

20 Years of HIFF Poster Art By marion wolberg weiss
montage. The artist’s use of time is indicated here as well, with an ambiguity existing between what is the beginning and what is the end. Fischl’s other posters (1992, 2002) also suggest his figures’ lack of communication, their faces turned away from each other as well as from the viewer. Ross Bleckner’s poster (2004) similarly mirrors a signature motif: abstract circles enclosed in a rectangular form. While such a design designates the spread of AIDS in a series from the past, it is still potent
Poster art is an idiosyncratic form of imagery that has often been underappreciated. But such art is indeed valued and respected in the art market. (This critic can remember buying a silkscreen poster for an early New York Film Festival by Andy Warhol. Cost: $30. It was worth $2,000 about five years ago. Trouble is, the work was used as a target by the critic’s children and is now riddled with dart holes.) No such circumstances exist at Bridgehampton’s Peter Marcelle Gallery where an exhibit celebrates 20 years of posters from the Hamptons International Film Festival. Not only are they in pristine condition (naturally) but they also pay tribute to the Festival, the artists who designed them and even cinema art. The result? A straightforward, charming, yet effective show that’s a pleasure to experience. There are a few surprises as Past Hamptons International Film Festival posters well, when considering that some artists apply signature themes and styles to their poster and strangely beautiful when associated with the Festival poster. April Gornik’s two works represent design. One such artist is Eric Fischl who has designed her iconic motifs, too, with a skyscape (1995) and three Festival posters through the years. One was a water scene (2005). The last poster shows dainty in 1993, and it captures the essence of cinema while white drops of light scattered throughout the water, also conveying Fischl’s connection to the movies. perhaps a metaphor for footprints and the legacy left Four separate images feature a woman in the process behind by the Festival. Other posters are less subtle in suggesting their of dressing/undressing; the effect recalls a cinematic
artists’ motifs, but no less effective: Bryan Hunt’s piece (2009) with a curvy sculptured shape, surrounded by negative space; and Donald Baechler’s small portraits of heads (1997). David Salle’s poster (1994) features objects that signify aspects of popular culture. Stylistic tendencies are also evident in Jim Gingerich’s work (2000), thick brush strokes pervade the canvas as a man runs down a country lane, a sly indication that the natural environment is fading. Finally, Billy Sullivan’s portrait (2007) of a man possesses the artist’s recognizable and quirky use of line. Yet other posters pay homage to the Festival itself, like Dan Rizzie’s beach scene, complete with sand, starfish, and his whimsical flower. This year’s poster (2012) by Cecily Brown is a full-blown abstraction that may also relate to the Festival, with the artist’s familiar dense shapes and diverse colors piled on top of each other. Could this be a metaphor indicating the varied and intense movies waiting for us at the upcoming Festival? We hope so. The poster exhibit of 20 years of the Hamptons International Film Festival will be on view until Oct. 8, 2012 at Bridgehampton’s Peter Marcelle Gallery (2411 Main Street). Call 631-613-6170 for information.
Sunlight, Shadow, Love By Joan baum
One of the main reasons Mark Helprin’s beautifully written, heartbreaking 705-page new novel, In Sunlight and in Shadow (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt), will prove haunting is that it’s long. Reading it, which should be done slowly, because so many of the sentences are set pieces of gorgeous imagery and sound – much of it on The Hamptons - is to live intimately with its characters for such an extended period that they become like family. But the depth of the story matches its breadth. This is rich cultural history – the time is 1947, the setting the city—though flashbacks horrifically recreate the battlefields of World War II, especially the invasion of Normandy. The nouns of the title, “sunlight” and “shadow,” inform the theme, which is about love. “I believe,” the heroine says, “that when all is said and done... love that won’t quit is more important than triumph, than time, than life itself.” Helprin, 65, says he wrote the book as “a love song” for his family, and that he wanted to go back to what he remembered “first and best,” close to the time he was born. It’s a saga, the kind that recalls the grand novels of the late 19th century—broad in its sweep of contemporary events, detailed in its recreation of time and place and inevitably tragic. A prologue sets the stage—this is going to be a onceupon-a-time tale that invites a reader to settle in: It’s November 1947 (the narrative begins 18 months earlier), the sun is out after days of rain, a wind moves gently through an open window, the air is still,
a folded note is waiting to be read. “And if you were a spirit, and time did not bind you, and patience and love were all you knew, then there you would wait for someone to return and the story to unfold.” And so she does, in the epilogue. Harry Copeland and Catherine Thomas Hale, love each other to the bone, to the soul, a love that’s instantaneous and intense when they first see each other on the Staten Island Ferry, she, a fleeting vision out of F.Scott Fitzgerald whom 34-year-old Harry will search for and find later that day. Harry, who is Jewish, has recently returned from the war, where he was a captain with the 82nd Airborne, and is running his dead father’s elegant leather goods business. She, a talented aspiring actress, comes from one of the wealthiest families in New York, “Episcopalian aristocracy,” and lives on Sutton Place and in the Georgica section of East Hampton. Harry is no Jay Gatsby, however, nor she a Daisy Buchanan. Their love deepens, each seeing in the other great heart, decency, daring. So strong is Harry’s attraction that he crashes Catherine’s engagement party in East Hampton and they flee. Her intended, a powerful, nasty, vengeful older man, won’t take this turn of events lightly, nor is Harry prepared for what the Mafia will do to shake down Copeland Leather. The sections on organized crime in the ‘40s in New York are unforgettable. Helprin has a fine ear for dialogue. Shadows indeed obscure the sun—war, crime,
anti-Semitism, racism. Despite standing ovations, Catherine is savagely skewered in the press, and Harry, who tries to mute the force of the Mafia and its corruption of law enforcement and elected officials, gets badly beaten up. Arguably the darkest shadows in the book, however, come from Harry’s recollections of the war—stunning in their savagery and insanity but also exemplary of courage and loyalty. As he tells Catherine: “Three things in my life I’ll never get over that won’t heal, that I don’t forget…I would rather be destroyed for the sake of these things than abandon them and prosper: you, the war, and my parents.” One time, in France, when he was “Untouched himself, soaked with blood, holding a body that was still warm, [he] turned his face upward, as if inquiring, and the only answer he received was the snow falling evenly and impassively, its pace unvaried, spilling from endless reservoirs above.” The sentence, possibly homage to James Joyce’s “The Dead,” bears the seed of what he will do, and why, to fight the war with organized crime at home. The last few chapters heighten suspense, as Helprin switches back and forth between scenes of Catherine rising in triumph at the theater at the very moment Harry and his old army ready their carefully planned night attack to take out the Mafia. The juxtaposed scenes of baptism and blood in The Godfather may come to mind. For sure, Helprin’s splendid prose lends itself to film, but the book commands attention on its own.

ho doesn’t love those spas straight out of a posh magazine ad—sky-high windows sparkling with an ocean view, you donning a skinny thong and a plush fat robe, then being whisked off by a bubbly attendant into a room that’s all marble and pillars, with enough mirrored walls to put Versailles to shame.

the alternative healing therapies I encountered.” Rejuvenation Spa offers the typical: massage, facials and other body treatments. But no invasive needles here like Botox, except for acupuncture. “We are not beauty-oriented,” Lindstrom said. “We are about using your own natural powers of healing.” This includes organic facials, from products farmed and harvested on unpolluted land in Australia. Rejuvenation is going for its own niche in the crowded spa market by keeping prices down ($79 for a 60-minute treatment), and by initiating new spa fans. “We have celebrities, certainly, but we also have working women, and men, like farmers and fishermen,” Lindstrom said. She plans to add yoga classes and home visits to her repertoire next year. New for fall and winter is fire-cupping, where animal horns are used on the back to suck out toxins. “It’s great for asthma,” Lindstrom said. “Or anyone coughing this winter, they should...have a cupping session.” She noted that Madonna and Gwyneth Paltrow swear by the 5,000 year-old treatment. Another reason to reserve it for the winter, Lindstrom said, is “it leaves marks on your back for a while. You don’t want to go around in summer with those!” The spa welcomes walk-ins and offers eastern and western massage techniques, including deep tissue, Shiatsu, Tui-Na, and, of course, Swedish. Licensed massage therapist Marlene Rodriguez took me into a cozy room with baby blue blankets on the table. She told me to drink plenty of water afterward, because she was going to work on lymph and blood flow to get rid of toxins. She also thought I would love a salt foot rub—all the more reason to hydrate. While working on your muscles, Marlene instructs you to take deep breaths, talking to you about what your skin, muscles, circulation system, lungs and other organs are going through, making you aware of, respectful of, your body. And “Happy feet” is what you walk out with after the salty rose rub. I went back again for a facial with Edith Ingenhaag. Be prepared for the real deal here. She tailors the treatment to the skin type. For my dry and sensitive skin, the European-trained aesthetician smoothed on an enzyme cleanser. It felt like pancake batter (not that I’ve ever really put it on my face!), complete with baking powder fizzing—in other words, it mattered that it was organic, really alive. You know your skin is sucking in healthy stuff. Then comes the steam, the masque and, while that’s drawing out yucky stuff and making your face smooth and tight, she rubs your feet and your hands and then snuggles them with toasty towels. After the mask comes the real payoff, the massage from décolletage up to forehead. During that massage, which seemed to last forever, I just kept thinking: “It is so good to be alive!” Rejuvenation Spa, 23 Bridge Street, 2nd floor, Sag Harbor. 631-725-1057

Keeping Your Pets Safe and Healthy
T
he summer’s long hot days and warm nights, sunny barbecues and beach days may be behind us but, thankfully, we still have some warm fall days ahead. Everyone wants to be outside and enjoy the great weather, even your pets. But sometimes activities that you would otherwise deem harmless can endanger your animal companions. When taking a car ride with your animal friend it may seem easiest to stop quickly and grab something from a store and harmless to leave them in the car while you quickly run in, because you’ll leave the windows down and you’ll park in the shade.... Don’t do this! After only a couple minutes of being trapped in a hot steel box, the temperature will rise to dangerous levels and may cause your pet to suffer from heatstroke or worse, death. While out driving don’t let your dog hang out of the window or ride in the back of your pickup truck. Both of these are equally dangerous and pose a threat to your dog falling or jumping out, or being hit by outside objects such as a tree branch or gravel. When you first get a puppy it may seem like a good idea to “teach” them how to swim. Whether it is in a pool or at a beach, it may not be the best idea. Most dog owners interpretation of the word teach, in this situation, is to simply throw the dog in and hope mother nature kicks in with the “doggy paddle” gene. It’s not a good idea to force your pup or dog to swim, because they may become traumatized, or drown. Even if your dog is born with the talent and the determination to swim, do not leave him alone in the water. Supervision is key, because accidents can happen. After your dog’s playtime in the water, make sure you rinse him off in fresh water to get rid of sand from the beach or chemicals from the pool.
While the weather is hot, fireworks are hotter. While taking a stroll with your dog if you see people with fireworks outside, turn your walk into a run and book it far away. Fireworks may look beautiful but when not done by professionals they are very dangerous, even for humans. A firework can go off in any direction and could potentially harm you or your dog. Fireworks are often featured at neighborhood parties. Make sure that before those festivities begin, your pets are safely inside. Your pet should always have access to fresh, cool drinking water. They’re in a fur coat 24/7, the least you can do is pop a few Always swim with a friend ice cubes into their water dish. rolling in for a thunderstorm, make sure you bring Have your dog checked for heartworm, fleas and ticks.

GARDEN
CALENDAR
What’s happening in our microclimate.
Events for families, kids and singles.
Overgrown Ivy and Other Gardening Nightmares I am going on a rant about things that I do not like to see in the landscape/garden. You may have read some of these things before in this column but I have encountered them recently and think them worthy of attention. 1. Tree volcanos. When soil or mulch is covering the flare of a tree, the tree puts out roots into this soil or mulch, which is detrimental to the plant. This can happen because new trees are often burlapped several times before planting, the flare is lost and the tree is planted too deeply. This soil needs to be excavated and the flare exposed. Each time mulch is applied; the existing mulch should be removed, if needed, so that there is only about two inches around the tree, but away from the flare. Covering the flare can cause roots to encircle the trunk and eventually strangle the tree, possibly killing it. Other roots form here also instead of deeper in the soil where they need to be for the health of the tree. 2. Too much mulch in the garden. When the crowns of perennials or annuals are covered with too much mulch they can rot, as mulch keeps moisture in the soil. If you need to mulch a bed, use a mulch that will feed the plants, like compost, and apply it sparingly. Wood-based mulches are not appropriate for perennials and annuals but are good for trees and
shrubs. 3. English ivy. I recently visited a property that had beds of ivy where it was no longer wanted. The ivy had also moved into and up the privet hedge. Removing the ivy beds would require rather extreme measures involving a lot of digging, or applications of black plastic for a good bit of time, or smothering with a lot of newspapers for a long time; digging being the best. Weed killer does not work well work because of ivy’s surface. Any of these techniques must be repeated for SEVERAL YEARS to be affective. The most difficult removal is from the privet. Perhaps it would be best to remove the privet and the ivy and plant again. It can even escape from pots by growing over the edge and rooting on the ground! Some people like ivy in trees or on houses. Ivy can kill the trees by strangling them and/or become so heavy that the tree falls. Its presence makes the trees more susceptible to wind. Ivy on houses retains moisture next to the house and is a haven for insects and rodents. It can lift roofs and remove siding. 4. Wisteria. It is a lovely plant in leaf and bloom. The trunk structure can be very sculptural. But it can lift the shingles from your roof, pull the siding off, grow through cracks, pull banisters from their moorings, lift stones from patios, etc. It grows into the canopies of trees and sends runners along the ground. It invades its surroundings far and wide. Removing it requires much digging and then diligence over time to remove all of the plant. However, it does very well as a tree form in a pot! 5. Trumpet vines. These also send out runners and try to colonize the entire area around them. They

climb houses leaving foot prints that are very difficult to remove. They can also lift shingles and siding. This is another plant that needs diligent maintenance. 6. Uncontrolled bamboo. I love bamboo but it must be planted in the proper way. Even a stand that has been planted inside the recommended 30-inch-deep heavy Wisteria plastic barrier must be diligently maintained. If the barrier becomes covered by only one inch of soil, the bamboo will escape and, if left untended, becomes a monster. I recently went to a property that has a bamboo stand that is so large and so invaded by trees that to tame it will be a huge and expensive task. The roots have grown completely through the yard and almost into the neighbor’s yard. The answer might be a bulldozer, a lot of new soil and a new lawn. kkimpel/flickr

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR POLITICAL Dear Dan, There already is a third party alternative to the Democrats Obama and Republicans Romney. Since 1972 Libertarian Party Presidential candidates such as John Hospers and others have provided an alternative for those who cherish individual civil and economic liberties. Libertarians believe that what consenting adults consume, inhale, perform, read or view in the privacy of their own home or private social club isn’t the concern of government. Individual economic and civil liberties prosper best when government stays out of both the bedroom and marketplace. They would give a real voice to the majority of Americans who advocate returning to limited government accompanied by a minimal amount of confiscatory taxation to support only essential service along with Pay-as-Go budgeting; means testing for all government assistance programs; abolishment of all member item pork barrel spending, balanced budgets; actual surpluses and down payments to reduce long term debt. Voting for Libertarian Party Presidential candidate former two-term Republican New Mexico Governor Gary Johnson would send the Democratic/Republican monopoly a real message for change in the status quo! Sincerely, Larry Penner Great Neck Third party candidate Barry Commoner, who played in the Artist-Writers game, died last week. I voted for him when he ran for President in 1980 on a platform about environmentalism. There are times when doing this makes sense. Personally, I don’t think this is one of those times. —DR
MORE Dear Dan, Rick Santorum at a recent Values Voter Summit made clear his values. He proudly stated that the Conservative movement will never have the elite, smart people on its side, nor colleges and universities; the Church and families is all that is necessary. It may be a shock to his limited vision of man’s aptitude and that he or she can be smart and also believe in God and cherish family. Santorum needn’t worry about the elite, smart people knocking down his door to be a part of today’s distorted version of the once proud Republican Party and dare intrude upon them, that evil term, intelligence. What ever did happen to the GOP, the Grand Old Party? It’s Teasruction was and is sad to witness. Nevertheless it is what it now is and certainly not the Party that their one time professed hero President Reagan would be a part of, nor Eisenhower, Teddy Roosevelt or Lincoln. Charles Joseph “Charlie” Crist Jr.” ex Governor of Florida said, “I didn’t leave the Republican Party; the Party left me” echoed by Jeb Bush who said, “Reagan himself would have been too moderate, too reasonable for today’s GOP” and that there would be no place for neither his father nor Reagan. Hopefully old time/in line Republicans, if there are any left that haven’t been pushed out, will turn out those interlopers responsible for the degeneration of their Party and resurrect that once cerebral proud Grand Old Party. Nicholas Zizelis Amagansett In my opinion there should be a debate between Rick Santorum and Paul Ryan. —DR
THANKS Dear Stacy, On behalf of The East End Classic Boat Society, thank you very much for the article on our organization last month. As a not-for-profit, we are always very appreciative of coverage we receive in the local press, especially when it is as well written as Elise Pearlman does. Thank you! Bill Good East Hampton Keep up the good work and we will too. —SD “THANXZ” Dear Nick, When I picked up my copy of Dan’s Papers I was thrilled to see “the Scrabble piece.” In all the years and hundreds of stories I’ve been part of, I can honestly say this is absolutely one of the best that’s been done. It’s wonderfully written, refreshingly accurate and totally captured the spirit of myself and the game. Great work indeed, Nick. Being in Dan’s Papers —which I’ve read for nearly 40 years—really tops off a wild summer media-wise for both me and the game. Thanks again, Nick. I look forward to following your work going forward. Please pass along my thanks and regards to Dan as well. It goes without saying that I’m poised to adjudicate any future Scrabble disputes on your behalf. Best, John John D. Williams Jr. Executive Director, National SCRABBLE Association Greenport 631-477-0033 ext. 14 Thanks, John. I’ll take all of the help I can get! —NC

Drink in Autumn at Wölffer Estate Vineyard
J
ust before Labor Day weekend, the New York Post reported that there was a shortage of the Hamptons’ drink of summer: rosé. And Wölffer was tops on the list of elusive local brand names. Judy Malone, the Executive Marketing and Communications Director at Wölffer Estate Vineyard & Stables, confirms that they have officially run out of their coveted pink nectar. She does note however, that they made more of the summer wine this year than they had in previous years. Luckily, with the 2013 rosé release a highly anticipated but all-too-distant event, Wölffer has proven to be a year-round destination for wine aficionados. The Tuscan-style vineyard plays host to regular live entertainment, tastings and events. Chic but casual, Wölffer’s live music series is a Hamptons outing, pairing well with those seeking a relaxing vibe. I arrived at the Twilight Thursday installment on a late summer evening, happy to secure a bottle of the Perle Chardonnay and a cheese platter. As there was only a hint of fall in the air, the performers were set up outside, and I brought my bounty onto the portico to share it with friends while overlooking the rows of manicured vines. That particular evening’s music featured two women, one on guitar and one on violin, who played against the waning sunshine and worked off of the crowd. (They took a break from their set to perform a rousing “Happy Birthday” for the table next to me.)
The act changes each night, and Malone reveals that choosing the musicians is an elaborate process, involving both scouting and self-promotion. But their varying melodies complement the scene, which is always abuzz with conversation, clicking glasses and quiet contemplation. Warm summer nights are for impromptu dancing on the grass; perhaps colder winter nights call for heavier jazz and mulled wines. Thursday (today, if you read Dan’s the moment it hits the stands) marks the last Twilight Thursday of the year. (It’s the first stop on the tour of Wölffer’s popular live music summer weekend trifecta. During the season, they also have Sunset Fridays at the wine stand and, new this year, Sunset Saturdays back at the tasting room.) As we transition to harvest time, Candlelight Fridays, which Take a sip... runs every Friday through April, kicks off October 12. Per usual, no cover charge, and wines by the bottle or glass, cheese and charcuterie plates are available for purchase. To celebrate the cooler temperatures, drink in autumn with Wölffer’s Big Apple Wine. The pure apple taste works well on its own, or, for a more celebratory occasion, when mixed with sparkling water. Made from apples from nearby Halsey farm, the dry finish makes for a food-friendly drink.
75 MAIN
(Thinking ahead: It’s also nice with a turkey dinner.) Other popular offerings include the Red Letter Red Blend (a 2010 vintage merlot) and the Classic White 2011; a blend which Malone says is a “fun wine.” Wölffer is also the site of numerous yearly events. Though tickets are sold out for this weekend’s Harvest Party, people who would like to attend are welcome to put their names on a wait list. (‘Tis that season, after all, and wineries across the East End are reporting solid years. Malone confirms that it looks like 2012 will be an excellent vintage.) Keeping the mood alive (note: pair festive atmospheres with a Wölffer Brut-Blanc de Blanc), the lighting of the vines will be held on December 1. Complete with a Rockefeller Center-esque countdown and a “surprise” decoration (last year they lit up the gazebo), Wölffer hits the switch and allows revelers to bask in bright, frosty glory. With wine, of course. They say that the East End is more “New England” than “New York.” And Wölffer is somewhat inbetween: decisively European, with an Italian flair that complements and suits the Hamptons life, year-round.

Plant and Sing, the annual festival of art and food will be held at the Sylvester Manor on Shelter Island on Columbus Day weekend, October 6 and 7. It is a weekend of music, singing, barn dancing, poetry and prose, children’s activities, planting and harvesting and so much more. I was invited to participate as a special guest of their literary program on Saturday, October 6 at 12:45 p.m. for a reading and tasting from my book Savoring the Hamptons: Discovering the Food and Wine of Long Island’s East End, Running Press Book Publishers. I’m delighted to be part of this weekend of community events which also includes a “Farm to Table” experience of local chefs using locally produced crops grown on the grounds of Sylvester Manor. A crossover of vegetables from summer to fall will be in the fields of Sylvester Manor at this time, such as eggplant, sweet peppers, sweet potatoes, winter squash, basil, beets and the last of summer tomatoes. The recipes below exhibit the timeliness of dishes to celebrate current cooking sensibilities. Hope to see you at Plant and Sing! Read more about Plant and Sing online at danshamptons.com.
2. Beat egg whites in a bowl until frothy and set aside. Pour oil about one-inch deep in a deep fryer or cast iron skillet and heat to 375 degrees. 3. Dip eggplant slices, one at a time, into the beaten egg white, shaking off excess. Put several slices at a time into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides; drain on paper towels. Continue until all slices are done. 4. Lightly oil a baking-serving dish and alternate layers of eggplant with sliced tomatoes, salt and pepper, garlic slivers and herbs. Can be done ahead to this point. Refrigerate covered as necessary. clayirving/Flickr
LAYERED EGGPLANT WITH TOMATOES AND GARLIC Before frying eggplant, coat the slices with beaten egg white, which acts as a shield and prevents the eggplant from soaking up the oil Serves 6 to 8
1. Rinse and dry eggplants. Cut off root end and rub the two cut surfaces together to draw off indigestible juices. (The technique eliminates salting the eggplant). Cut eggplants into 1/4-inch slices and set aside.
