Sag Harbor Shares The Love Of Katy

By Emily Toy

This Saturday, runners, walkers and spectators of all ages will gather on Water Street in Sag Harbor for the second annual Katy’s Courage 5K, honoring the memory of 12-year-old Katy Stewart, who lost her battle with cancer in December of 2010.

Katy’s Courage is a not-for-profit organization created in Stewart’s memory and dedicated to education, pediatric cancer research and childhood bereavement.

The race, slated to start at 8:30 AM, has in the past featured thousands of people from all across the East End running in honor and celebration of the generous, courageous, young girl.

Stewart, who was born in Southampton Hospital and was a life-long Sag Harbor resident, battled Hepatoblastoma, a rare form of liver cancer, for nearly two years. She attended Sag Harbor Elementary School and Pierson Middle School where she was admired by many teachers and friends.

The idea of the race was the brainchild of Tom Donahue, a friend of the family whose daughter was one of Katy’s best friends.

“I just wanted to help out,” he said.

“Last year there was a strong emotional connection. This is the second year, so I’m hoping for an equally strong turnout.”

This year, in addition to the 5K, Bay Street Theatre hosted “Classical Students for Katy’s Courage Fund,” a benefit concert, on Sunday afternoon.

Sag Harbor Elementary teacher David Fox emceed the event, which featured local students performing classical music to an audience of nearly 75 people. Donations were collected at the door.

“I had Katy as a student,” Fox said in his introduction. “So this concert is extra special.”

Registration and check-in for the

race will take place from 7 to 8:15 AM and the race will begin promptly at 8:30 AM. A pre-registration fee is $25 and $30 on the day of the race.

Proceeds from the race will support scholarships for a Sag Harbor and East Hampton student, pediatric cancer research at Memorial Sloan Cancer Center in Manhattan, and the establishment of a fund toward the creation of the first childhood bereavement center of the East End of Long Island.

The scholarship will be awarded to students that exemplify remarkable courage, kindness and empathy, as Stewart did before, during and after her illness.

“Brigid and Jim (Katy’s parents) decided they would like to spread the proceeds out to different organizations and charities,” Donahue said. “It was a devastating thing that happened CONTINUED ON PAGE 16.

Local Is Key

Continuing The Independent’s coverage of changing main streets on the East End, we move to the Village of Sag Harbor, where a variety of new local businesses are opening and some are getting a facelift.

Everything from restaurants and bakeries to antique shops and clothing stores are sprouting up in the home of the whalers, with each one diligently preparing for the quickly approaching summer season.

Starting on Division Street, which runs parallel to Main Street, is the only bakery in town, The Sag Harbor Baking Company.

Sag Harbor natives, owners and operators Mimi Yardley and Margaret Wagner started up their business in December, taking their building over from the previous owners, who ran it as an art studio. “ We’re the only bakery in town and it’s a good location,” Yardley said. “We’re right next to the butcher shop and Cavaniola’s Cheese Shop is right next door, so it’s a nice mix.”

The baker y sells freshly made delectables including baguettes, focaccia bread, cakes and muffins as well as organic coffee to fuel the community.

Other food venues that are getting a facelift in Sag Harbor include Provisions Cafe, Pepalajefa (the old Ice Cream Club), Page at 63 Main, and Muse in the Harbor.

Located on the corner of Division and Bay Streets, Provisions will be expanding their current business

store and cafe, said in an interview on Monday. “We’ve already been before the planning board and expect to begin construction in mid May.” According to Kresberg, construction should be completed by mid June and will include an expansion of the store, featuring more refrigerated items.

Moving onto Main Street, Muse in the Harbor has been open for about two months under chef and owner Matthew Guiffrida.

Relocating from their previous Water Mill location, Guiffrida and his team have revamped the interior decor, which hasn’t been changed in nearly a decade, to accompany the diverse New American menu. This summer Muse will be open seven days, and is serving brunch on weekends. A threecourse prix fixe is also available and breakfast will be served this summer.

Across the Independent / Emily Toy street, Pepalajefa, a new gourmet-to-go and take out shop, is expected this summer.

Construction began in January, combining the old Ice Cream Club and Vincenzo’s Pizzeria.

THE CANDIDATE He’s a brilliant campaigner.

There’s no one who comes close to him when it comes to giving a spellbinding political speech.

He takes the stage, stands at attention and waits until there is complete silence before he starts his speech.

For the first few minutes he appears nervous and speaks haltingly. Slowly he begins to relax and his style of delivery changes. He starts to rock from side to side and begins to gesticulate with his hands. His incredible voice gets louder and becomes more passionate. At times his voice cracks with emotion.

He found out early in the game that in order to be elected one must appear to stand for everything. If they’re young, he promises them free education. If they’re old, he promises them free medication. If they’re feeling put upon, he promises them instant vindication. Bottom line is if it ends in “ion” he promises it to someone.

To appeal to the working class his programs include several measures that would redistribute income and profit-sharing in large industries. He talks of senior citizen pensions and free education.

He has written a “White Paper” to reassure his wealthy followers that he is a supporter of private enterprise and is opposed to any real transformation of economic and social structure.

What he says while campaigning depends very much on the audience.

In rural areas he promises tax cuts for farmers and government action to protect food prices. In workingclass areas he speaks of redistribution of wealth and attacks the high profits made by the large chain stores.

He promises he will solve the downturn that the country is experiencing and says he will solve the serious problem of unemployment.

Cuff Code Enforcer

By Kitty Merrill

Alfred Tumbarello, 38, of Speonk, who’s been employed as a Southampton Town Code Enforcement Officer for the last five years, was arrested last week, accused of selling drugs.

The East End Drug Task Force, which operates under the auspices of Suffolk County District Attorney Tom Spota helmed the investigation.

According to the DA’s office, an investigation that spanned several months led to Tumbarello’s arrest.

Members of the EEDTF are loath to reveal anything but the most rudimentary details of the arrest of the town employee, who also worked part time as a bartender in Westhampton, as the investigation is ongoing.

However, charges filed against Tumbarello – three counts of third degree criminal sale of a controlled ay of substance the season and one count of fourth degree conspiracy – imply he allegedly y, October 10th. sold drugs to undercover cops. one for He’s a great accused of summer! selling cocaine and prescription drugs. County officials said that when he was arrested, officers found a quantity of cocaine and prescription pills on the suspect, as well as cash.

Tumbarello was arraigned in Westhampton Justice Court last Thursday morning and released on $1000 bail; prosecutors wanted bail set at $5000.

News of the arrest prompted protracted partisan debate on the website 27east. It was noted Tumbarello is a Republican committeeman who also coaches children’s sports. Addition-

ally, a quote from the outlet’s archives revealed the suspect was charged with criminal possession of a controlled substance and loitering in 2002 after he was allegedly observed snorting coke in a car parked at Bowden Square in Southampton Village.

Asked to weigh in on potential action the town might take against Tumbarello, Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst said, via text, “The process involves temporary suspension while the matter is investigated and, if applicable, heard in court, at the con-

clusion of which the Town makes a permanent determination as to the employment status of the individual. That is the process currently being followed in the case of Mr. Tumberello (sic.)”

That’s not quite accurate, town attorney Tiffany Scarlato subsequently advised. She said the suspect had not been suspended as of Monday morning. And, while emphatic that town officials don’t comment on pending disciplinary matters, Scarlato said that in “very general terms,” such matters are handled on a case-by-case basis within the confines of civil service law. Employees charged with crimes are entitled to due process, she pointed out. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

Ronjo Petition Deemed Invalid

By Kitty Merrill

Controversy continued to swirl, even in the face of a determination some might have thought would bring the matter to a close.

Last Thursday night East Hampton Town Clerk Fred Overton presented his findings regarding a petition seeking a permissive referendum on the sale of a town–owned alleyway to the owners of the former Ronjo property in Montauk for $35,000. Town Democrats spearheaded the petition drive, seeking to overturn the sale because they feel Supervisor Bill Wilkinson set an arbitrary price and failed to follow proper procedure, including having the property appraised.

Citing several technical flaws, such as incomplete addresses for signatories

and witnesses, illegible signatures and failure to include a required clause in the proper form, Overton said the petition was invalid as filed. The contingent of Dems in the audience seemed subdued by the news.

But not for long.

During the public portion of the town board’s meeting, members of the local committee continued to voice opinions about the sale. Reading a letter from attorney Sam Kramer, Robin Glassman said a resolution calling for an appraisal that was finally adopted just last week was a “political response to a legal mess.”

Betty Mazur said the agreement to conduct an appraisal “looks like delayed window dressing,” and local committee chair Jeanne Frankl expressed concern

S_Propane Delivery_IND_The Independent 10/29/10 1:05 PM Page 1

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

that the resolution was adopted to confirm an already decided price using an appraiser from New York City rather than a firm with local experience.

John Whelan called for a “fair and clear” policy for dealing with sales, while Rona Klopman complained that Democratic town board members were “pressured” to vote on a last minute, walk on resolution. Klopman claimed local fire officials want the alleyway to remain open for fire fighting purposes.

Councilman Dominick Stanzione asked Town Attorney John Jilnicki whether there was anything legally deficient in the process followed by the town board. Receiving an answer that satisfied him, the councilman said, “Then the criticism is political, not legal.”

Challenge Clerk’s Decision As The Independent went to press yesterday, members of the Democratic committee planned to launch Article 78 proceedings seeking to overturn Overton’s determination.

“We think we have a very strong case,” party chair Jeanne Frankl said. She cited three postures that form the basis of the Article 78 suit: the clerk lacks the authority to make the determination; even if he did,the determination was made too late, and the challenges were not warranted by the law.

David Buda addressed another aspect of the morass, earning ire from Councilwoman Theresa Quigley. He reported the town planning board’s “fabulously unique” review of the parcel. The planning board, acting after an agreement between the town attorney’s office and the property owners, is analyzing just one portion of the entire hotel site, a basement that was dug without a building permit. The work on the basement, which was the subject of a stop work order earlier this month, continues unfettered as the planning board review proceeds.

Buda didn’t get to report any of that, however. Before he could make a point or detail his concern, Quigley interrupted. Claiming she doesn’t want to know about the inner workings of the planning board, the councilwoman said she felt it was inappropriate to discuss the efforts of another “jurisdiction.”

Buda tried to explain, but Quigley continued efforts to shut him down.

Clearly exorcised, at one point she alluded to audience members who “scream out with no protocol at all.” There was no such screaming discernable either at the meeting or CONTINUED ON PAGE 16.

Septic Forum Draws Few

Independent / Kitty Merrill

A panel of experts discuss septage Saturday at East Hampton Town Hall.

By Kitty Merrill

If attendance at Saturday’s scavenger waste forum was the determining factor, it appears few East Hampton Town residents care about the future of the facility. Just a handful of attendees, the lion’s share of which have been showing up each time the scav plant is on the agenda, came out for the special event Saturday afternoon.

Those who did heard presentations from a number of experts who discussed the scav plant, which

up until this year processed septic waste, as well as the recycling facility located next door on Springs Fireplace Road. Experts included Kevin Phillips and Stephanie Davis from the environmental engineering firm Fanning, Phillips and Molnar, Mark Wagner, from Cameron engineering, Pio Lombardo, who specializes in septage management, Kim Shaw the town director of environmental protection and attorney Arthur Malman from the town appointed budget and finance

advisory committee.

Councilman Dominick Stanzione and Councilwoman Sylvia Overby served as hosts for what Stanzione dubbed “a full hour of fairly intense information.” The goal of the informational outing was providing the community with adequate data to allow members to make an informed decision about the future of the municipality’s aging facility, Overby reminded.

In summary, experts agreed the first step the town should make

IN THE NEWS

towards the decision relates to garnering a true picture of what lies beneath the scav plant and the landfill. More groundwater monitoring wells could help draw that picture. Phillips, whose firm has been tasked with monitoring wells around the plants, noted that violations issued by the state department of environmental conservation have sometimes related to substances, like mercury, that the town doesn’t currently test for.

On a happy note, Phillips reported the toxic plume under the landfill has decreased.

Beyond the need for more testing, experts focused on the impact older residential septic systems could have on groundwater. Lombardo reported that if more than 10 percent of the septic tanks in a community are in failure mode, “You may have a public health problem.”

The experts advocated for a comprehensive wastewater management plan that may include incentives for homeowners who upgrade their septic systems and encourage routine, rather than emergency, septic management. If systems are improved at individual sites, Lombardo said, the size of the scav plant could be significantly reduced.

Town board members have debated whether turning the scav CONTINUED ON PAGE 22.

after careful and repeated review of the tapes of the meeting.

Quigley scolded Buda, stating his “serious allegations” were inflammatory, and lacking basis in fact. However, at the planning board meeting the prior night, town officials said the review was guided by the meeting with the town attorney.

Quigley erupted again later in the evening over the issue of increasing certain town fees.

IN THE NEWS

Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc offered a resolution increasing fees for the town’s sailing program, prompting the councilwoman to complain that she hadn’t had a chance to discuss the measure at the work session earlier in the week. Van Scoyoc reminded the initiative, as well as one increasing the daily fee for parking at beaches had both been discussed.

Quigley continued to complain that she’d only seen the two initiatives in resolution form and that items should be discussed before resolutions are crafted.

“So, like an appraisal?” Van Scoyoc said, referencing the Ronjo resolution.

“Didn’t we just see that? Didn’t that just come out of somebody’s sleeve?

You were okay with it then.”

Quigley continued to express ignorance of both measures, calling the increase in beach parking fees “taxes for residents,” until it was pointed out the move only applies to non resident parking. Back and forth about tabling the resolutions ensued, with no one on the dais sufficiently versed in rule of order to decide whether it’s possible to table a resolution that had been offered.

“Does anybody know Parliamentary procedure?” Quigley asked the audience.

Eventually, Wilkinson called for a do over. The resolution increasing the fees for the sailing program by $40 passed three to two with the supervisor and Quigley voting no. The increase to beach parking fees, from $15 to $20 for nonresidents, passed by the same margin. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

RICK’S SPACE Dick Clark, Janis, And Me I’m not that old, but I do remember “American Bandstand” fondly. That’s because my brother Stanley was eight years older than I was, and his teenage years coincided with the glory years of Bandstand, which was on every weekday afternoon, a couple hours each day.

Dick Clark, the show’s host, who died last week, was no phony: he loved the record business and he loved music. The highlight of every show was a “live” performance.

Of course, whoever it was just lip-

synched the record, sometimes pretending to play a guitar that wasn’t plugged into anything. (I used to notice Elvis never made any chord changes, just kept his hand on the neck of the guitar without moving it at all.)

In those days cute guys dominated the charts. After Elvis was Ricky Nelson (who really could play guitar) and then a host of imitators like Fabian (who was a gorgeous kid with absolutely no talent), Frankie Avalon, and so on.

Bobby Rydell was popular even though

he was kind of homely looking. My mom said he was the kind of guy ugly girls who had no shot at getting Elvis might dream about.

I once interviewed Avalon and was surprised to learn he was a child prodigy, an expert trumpet player.

When he was signed to a record deal, though, the record company didn’t want him to play the trumpet. They wanted him to look cute and lip-synch.

Clark knew the game. Elvis was voted Most Popular Singer every year on American Bandstand and Nelson was voted Best New Artist, every year, even though he had been in business since he was a little kid.

It was the dream of every teenager to appear on television, dancing on the popular show. My brother made the pilgrimage to Philadelphia many times with a few of his friends, and finally achieved immortality: he was picked, with his girlfriend, to dance on the show.

It was a surprise my brother got on because he had a Latino girlfriend, a gorgeous girl named Sonja. Although Clark was known for keeping the changing cast of dancing “guests” ethnically diverse, television was very stuffy in those days and interracial couples did not appear on the show.

Then again, Ozzie and Harriet were forced to sleep in separate beds although they were married for 30 years.

My whole family gathered to watch the show the day my brother was on.

Finally, when the show was almost over, we caught a glimpse of Stanley and Sonja dancing in the background, barely visible in the crowd of dozens of other couples. So, as it turned out, the real fun was cramming three couples into a car and making the long drive to the Mecca of rock n’ roll, then waiting all night with hundreds of others, each hoping to get picked to be on the show.

Come to think of it, it was a scene that repeated itself years later at the swank clubs like Studio 54 – although in that instance, those allowed in were rewarded with terrible, pounding Disco music and allowed to pay $500 for a $20 bottle of champagne.

“American Bandstand” ran for an astounding 30 years. Clark introduced a number of unknown acts that went on to great fame, including Stevie Wonder, Simon and Garfunkel, and The Beach Boys.

The old days were simple times. A big date was going to a wholesome movie. Guys called on the girls, shook hands with the father, and promised to have them home by 11. Mom would offer a cupcake and a glass of milk.

Girls wore pretty dresses that covered everything.

Couples would study after school together and share a milkshake . . . two straws and one glass. Everyone had Sen-Sen breath sweeteners, even though they weren’t sweet.

By the next decade, times, and babes, changed. Can you imagine going over Janis Joplin’s house when she was 16, ringing the bell and saying something like, “If Janis isn’t busy sewing, I was hoping you would allow her to go the ice cream parlor with me.”

Her father would say something like, “It’s almost 8 PM -- Janis has already drank a bottle of Jack Daniels, snorted heroin, and banged half the guys in the motorcycle gang.”

“Well maybe we can go to the library after school tomorrow.”

“Janis dropped out of school in the third grade.”

“Oh. OK, maybe I’ll see her at church Sunday.”

My brother loved the Golden Oldies until the day he died. Me? I like loud electric guitar feedback, distortion, and wah-wah pedals. But in a moment of candor I will admit that for an ugly kid Bobby Rydell was kind of cute.

The Proposed Ferry Sag Harbor is grappling over an ambitious proposal to allow a ferry to funnel North Forkers via Greenport to the village and vice versa, as often as 18 trips per day during the season.

The issue is a complicated one – where will passengers disembark in Sag Harbor? The Long Wharf, the obvious place, is ill suited for that kind of pedestrian traffic, and the flow of people would have to cross a dangerous intersection where the North Haven Bridge intersects Main Street. Another proposal, to dock by the Sag Harbor Yacht Club, leaves passengers off the beaten path and has been discarded.

Then there is the matter of parking for those who travel to Sag Harbor to make the trip to Greenport. There is scant parking available in the bustling village as is, and during the height of the summer season finding a space near Main Street can be an impossible task.

Finally, there is the matter of pollution – can we be sure the vessel won’t leak fuel or be unduly noisy? The proposed route, around Shelter Island, is about as pristine as the bay gets in these parts, and is a favored course for small crafts, sailboats, and other water sport activities.

On the plus side is Sag Harbor’s history as a maritime center, a port of call willing and able to accept all

a day on Saturdays and Sundays for a month, to give each village a chance to absorb what will happen. It would seem 18 trips a day is excessive, but we assume those making the proposal know what they are doing.

Unfortunately, though, as it stands now bringing the ferry in is illegal, and with a Local Waterfront Revitalization Plan in place, a thorough review is mandatory.

Certainly, the Village of Greenport could benefit greatly if the reciprocal foot traffic materializes and the local merchants see an up tick in business. For Sag Harbor, though, which seems to be bursting at the seams in July and August, the decision is more difficult and complex.

Within The Guidelines Most of our school districts have pared their proposed budgets to comply with Governor Cuomo’s mandates, and most will tell you it was a painful process involving difficult cuts. A gentle reminder: that’s what school board members were elected to do. It Independent / James J. Mackin shouldn’t have taken a law to make our schools The payoff for the bus company would presumably be tighten their belts; in the real world we constantly increased traffic on its North Fork line, possibly shuttling have to make difficult choices to make ends meet.

Yes, school districts have an obligation to provide ferry goers from points west, like the Tanger Mall.

This is a complicated proposal, and the Sag Harbor the best possible education for our children, but Village Board is wise to thoroughly explore it from somewhere along the way too many forgot where the every angle. A trial run would be helpful, perhaps a few money comes from.

of the actions of the East Hampton three majority Town Board members who for whatever their reasons; the rewarding of two Republican opportunists, payback for Chris Jones desperate attempts to become one of the superrich, choose once more to disregard the community and their responsibility as honest, incorruptible elected officials to safeguard our interests.

Indeed, it is the steady degrading of codes and procedures, which we have repeatedly witnessed and, which have made this place so unique that is literally scaring reasonable minds to death. The

sad part is that even after you held them up to the light they still are unable to admit a mistake and right the wrong.

Community Pressure Dear Rick, Your April 18 editorial “Cause for

The process by which the East Hampton Republican town board majority tried to rush through the sale of town property without a professional appraisal is shocking. Would Mr. Wilkinson sell his own property by picking a number “out of the air?” I doubt it.

As you point out, the larger issue here is not the price of the property but the fact that actions by the board should be based on what is in the best interest of

the community at large rather than a small special interest group, in this case, the developers.

At a recent meeting sponsored by the GGG (Group for Good Government) Ms. [Theresa] Quigley reportedly expressed frustration at the criticism being lodged against her and the Supervisor by the local press.

By personalizing legitimate concerns she avoids dealing with merits of the issues and nothing is gained. Apparently the pressure from the community and the media led to a reversal of the knee-jerk decision to forgo an appraisal. Hopefully we’ll see less tendency to “leap before you look” in the future.

SUE AVEDON

Works Well Dear Rick, You are so right: a town board can quickly “ruin” (and alienate their constituents in) our town when they pass legislation that is “at odds with the wishes of the community.” The wishes of our community are implemented by our Planning Department. The Planning Department staff are our first and last defense against unbridled “upisland” type over-development.

They also provide a level playing field for the business community, which is a benefit to them as a whole, and a benefit to their own customers.

Therefore, it clearly is not in the best interests of the residents of the town for Councilwoman ]Theresa] Quigley to continue to waste time on pushing to replace our 2006 lighting law and the authority of the Planning Department to review new lighting.

Our lighting law works well; and only needs a few amendments to update the code to accommodate new technologies and an extension to the sunset provision where warranted for large commercial properties. Our lighting law is entirely safe and proven effective.

Who would make a smart choice for Mitt Romney’s running mate?

Jan Federico I think Condoleezza Rice would be a great choice. I love her. She’s an amazing woman. She a smart political choice. She’s level headed and she’s definitely a moderate. But I just don’t think she’d do it. But it would be great if she would.

Tom DeVincentis He needs someone who will appeal to women.

People are saying Condoleezza Rice. She’s a smart woman. But she stood by Bush too long. They’ve also been mentioning Meg Whitman, from California, the ebay billionaire, as a running mate.

Margaret Hackett If I were picking his running mate, I’m not sure who I would choose. The only one I’ve heard mentioned is Condoleezza Rice. And I do like her quite a lot.

She’d be an excellent choice for vice president. And she’d certainly bring in the women’s vote.

Chinda Egan Rick Santorum would be a good choice. I like him better than Romney. And he would bring in the conservatives who aren’t so comfortable with Romney. I’ve also heard a lot of people mention Condoleezza Rice. I like her. She’d be an excellent choice too.

degrees, sprinkled with nebulous facts, they are after all the viewpoint of the writer, such as mine right now, and that is what letters should be. We can go to reliable news sources, as few as may still exist, for facts. However, one in your 4/11 issue lacked even that sprinkle. It was titled; “A List of Firsts”

by Andrew Benjamin and it was the author’s sophomoric list of horrific “Firsts” performed by President Obama.

To appreciate the mental bent involved in the colorful “First’s, the first two of his “First’s” are, “First president to apply for college aid as a foreign student and then deny he was a foreigner,” “First President to have a Social Security number from a state he has never lived in,” plus 29 further fascinating “Firsts.”

The very tenor of these inventions suggest what was Firstly and Foremostly etched on the mind of the writer: First president born in Kenya, First president to have a forged birth certificate and First president not the same shade as the previous 43.

Of the remaining 29 “Firsts” all of which are worth reading for sheer color, one of the funniest Firsts is, “First president to golf 73 separate times in his First two and a half years in office, 107 and counting.” No one claimed that the letter was an exercise of accuracy in math (nor any other accuracy) but President Bush vacationed fully a third

of his time in the White House, setting a record. Unfortunately there was enough time spent at the office for him to put our country into this disastrous economic situation from which President Obama is forced to extricate us.

I’ve read earlier letters by Mr. Benjamin, therefore this rant was not unexpected and its absence of rage would have been strangely disappointing. What Mr. Benjamin’s letters lack in facts are more than compensated for in enthusiasm. A little subtlety might render them less transparent and more effective but maybe more boring as well. When all is said and done, they’re best just the way they are and most enjoyable.

the support of the voters so I can add to the excellence of our school.

I bring a wealth of background and experience in education to the Amagansett School Board seat. Having a degree to teach Mathematics, a Masters to teach Reading Pre-K to 12, and a second Masters in Computer Science have enabled me to be a teaching educator for 30 years in the Jericho School District.

I understand quality education and my goal, as a member of the School Board, is the acquisition and growth of skills for every child.

I believe that residents should have a role to play in decision-making that affects our school. I would like to explore making school board meetings more accessible and user friendly to the public. My experience on the Amagansett Advisory Committee, member for 16 years, Chair and Vice Chair for 5 years and as President of the Amagansett East Association (310 homes in Beach Hampton) have kept me abreast of community events and will be of use when I serve on the School Board.

Homeland Security Dear Mr. Murphy, Besides writing to The Independent, I also write to the Filipino Reporter, a weekly newspaper that covers international news from all over, that is particularly interesting to Americans who have ties to the Philippines. This newspaper is fair, fearless and factual. Much of the following material was included in a recent article on illegal immigration. When I directly quote a statement or paragraph from that article, I include quotation marks as I also do when I use a direct quote from reports created by the Department of Homeland Security.

According to the Filipino Reporter, “Approximately 11.5 million foreign nationals are living in the United States without proper immigration documents, according to estimates released on March 23 by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). The figures, as of January 2011, show little difference from the 11.6 million figure in 2010.”

The Reporter continued, “Homeland Security’s demographers said recent

economic and security trends appear to have halted what had been a steady rise in illegal immigration, but have not significantly reversed it.” A DHS report stated “It is unlikely that the number of these migrants increased after 2007 given relatively high U.S. unemployment, improved economic conditions in Mexico, record low numbers of apprehensions of unauthorized immigrants at U.S. borders, and greater levels of border enforcement.”

The DHS gave their estimates of the origins of these undocumented.

According to their report, 59 percent of them came from Mexico, 6 percent from El Salvador, 5 percent from Guatemala, 3 percent from Honduras, and 2 percent each from China, India, Philippines, South Korea and Vietnam.

DHS indicated that 31 percent of the unauthorized immigrants entered the country before 1995, and 55 percent entered between 1995 and 2004 with only 14 percent since 2005. The report

April 25, 2012

stated, “Most unauthorized residents either entered the United States without inspection or were admitted temporarily and stayed past the date they were required to leave.” Their best estimate for January 2010 was 11.6 million undocumented immigrants.

The Filipino Reporter concluded, “The issue of immigration has been a hot topic on the presidential campaign trail with Mitt Romney, the leading candidate for the Republican nomination to challenge President Barack Obama in November’s election, backing tougher measures to crack down on the undocumented. Mr. Obama, a Democrat, has sought to block some tough new state laws aimed at pushing out illegal immigrants and he has urged Congress to pass a comprehensive package of immigration reforms but that effort has gone nowhere.”

Refineries are being built in Columbia, Mexico and Brazil due to low construction and operating costs. Plus our government unconsciously promotes this construction by providing foreign aid to the countries.

Hopefully, it isn’t too late for our government and the unions to wake up and evaluate the impact of their policies and decisions on the oil refining industry.

Otherwise we will continue to see rising fuel prices that could reach historic highs, including gasoline at or above $5 per gallon.

Dear Editor, I recently wrote a letter on exported fuels by U.S. oil companies who reap higher prices paid overseas.

Another reason for our high gasoline prices is the closure of U.S. oil refineries and the movement of our oil overseas to foreign refineries, “Sunoco is closing two refineries in July 2012 in Philadelphia and Marcus Hook, PA. Conoco Phillips announced the closing of two plants in Trainer, PA and Bayway, NJ, and is closing its facility in Alaska. Hess is closing the third largest U.S. oil refinery, laying off 2,000 workers and impacting 950 contractors.”

Miscellaneous PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN (Never known to fail) Oh, most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of heaven, Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity.

Oh, Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother. Oh, Holy Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth!

The reports continue to improve with each passing day. Flounder have moved out into Shinnecock Bay, plenty of chum with worms and mussels doing the trick.

Striped Bass are spreading out to areas in both Shinnecock and Peconic Bays including both canals and the Shinnecock Inlet. Most of the bass have been falling for rubber baits. Weighed in a 10 pound bass today caught from the Shinnecock Canal.

Good reports of weakfish coming from the Quogue Canal and a few from the Shinnecock Canal. I would start checking out the regular haunts like Rogers Rock and the south race if you’re looking for a tide runner.

Bluefish are beginning to make an appearance, too. Have seen some cocktail size fish come from the Shinnecock Canal and rumors of some larger fish moving in.

The fluke are here. The bottom of Shinnecock Canal is carpeted with fish up to 20 inches all released safely for the opener on May 1.

Porgies are in the Peconics and ready for the season opener on May 1 as well. Full steam ahead, looks like it’s going to be a great season.

We have live eels, fresh bunker and all in season baits in stock.

The East Hampton Bonackers, tied for the League VI lead with Sayville, has a busy week ahead, and a chance to make hay on Half Hallow Hills West, a team that like the locals sits on a gaudy 7-1 mark.

Thursday the Lady Bonackers knocked off Kings Park (4-4 in League V) 7-3 behind the pitching of Sam Mathews and the explosive bat of Ellie Cassel. The ever-reliable Mathews kept the home team at bay while Cassel laced four hits in as many at bats, including three doubles good for four RBI. The next day the locals blasted Glenn, winless is League VI, by a 12-0 margin. Casey Waleko turned in an overpowering performance,

hurling a one-hitter with seven punch-outs. Dana Dragone had three hits and scored three runs.

That sets up a possible trifecta for East Hampton with games Monday against Huntington at home (4-4), Tuesday against Bellport at home (1-7), and next Wednesday against Consewogue (6-5), all League V teams.

The Bonackers got a scare last Wednesday, scoring in the seventh inning to slip by Eastport/South Manor 4-3. Kathryn Hess drove in the winning run, Waleko had two hits and scored the winning run, and Mathews recorded the complete game victory. Dragone also starred for the locals, going 2 for 4 with three RBIs. R.M.

The Whalers Finally Fall

By Rick Murphy

The third and last game of the series proved to be the golden one for the Southold Settlers. Previously, the Pierson / Bridgehampton Whalers had beaten the Northforkers twice, clubbing Southold 13-4 last Wednesday and outlasting the Settlers 3-0 at Mashashimuet Park Friday.

On Saturday, though, playing at home, the Settlers exacted their revenge, earning an 8-4 victory that ended the Whalers’ League IX winning streak 8-4. It was a tense affair, with the Settlers clinging to

a 4-3 lead in the bottom of the sixth when Will Fujita unloaded, blasting a grand slam home run off Aaron Schiavoni to seal the deal. It was Fujita’s first dinger of the season.

Fujita recorded the victory as well.

Colman Vila had it all going for him the previous day, hurling a three hitter in Pierson’s 3-0 win.

Sean Hartnett had the big blast, a triple, and went 2 for 3 with two ribbies. Tim Markowski had two hits and batted in a run as well.

Southold gets the Porters Friday, travels to Stony Brook Tuesday and get the Bears at home Wednesday.

Port Jefferson crushed Greenport 9-1 Friday.

Hampton Bays put a hurting on Center Moriches Thursday. Jack Kearney hurled a one hitter and Perry Friscia, Ryan Schultheis and Nick Picataggio led the potent attack with two knocks apiece. The Baymen go to Mattituck tomorrow and play the Tuckers at home Friday. Mercy comes to town Monday.

Mattituck survived a wild one against Mercy Thursday, edging the Monarchs at home 11-10. Travis

Zurawski drove in the winning run, had two hits, and also scored two runs. George Lessard hit two hits and scored the winning run. Chris Dwyer recorded the win. Mattituck plays at home against Babylon Monday and travels upisland to take on that rival next Wednesday.

Southampton was edged by Babylon 3-2 on Friday but beat the same team 13-6 on the loser’s field a day earlier. Peter Barnaby was the story in that affair, striking out 11 to earn the win and also smashing a three-run homer. He went 2-4 with four ribbies for the day. The Mariners go to Mercy tomorrow, get the Monarchs at home on Friday and go to Center Moriches Monday.

East Hampton got crushed by Mt. Sinai 11-1 on Thursday. The locals are at Shoreham-Wading River today, get that rival at home Friday and get Bayport/Blue Point at home Monday.

Southampton 13, Babylon 6: Peter Barnaby threw five innings with 11 strikeouts and four earned runs and went 2 for 4 with a three-run homerun and four RBIs to lead Southampton (4-6) in League VIII. Wyatt Schmidt went 4 for 5 with two stolen bases and three runs.

Riverhead traveled to West Babylon Thursday and came away with a hard fought 9-8 victory. Tim Clement earned the win, and John Wendt recorded the save. Wendt also drilled three hits, as did Matt Crohan. The Wave play at home and away against Hauppauge tomorrow and Friday (at home).

so it has that element about it.”

Finally, the bustle of Sag Harbor’s Main Street goes back to a building that has been quietly standing for nearly half a century as the same shop, and, until recently, was unchanged.

Our Gig Two Whatever, a shop specializing in brass, copper, jewelry and nautical accessories reopened April 1 with a brand new face.

New display windows, fresh hardwood floors and bright white paint made the old Harbor staple seem brand new.

“People walk by and their response is, ‘Is this the same place,’” said Denise O’Malley, who became the sole owner after the death of her husband Kevin in October of last year.

O’Malley, along with her daughters Veronica and Shannon are actively working to continue their store’s success, with Veronica creating handmade jewelry for sale.

“The girls and I are going to keep the legacy going,” she said. “One of Kevin’s favorite sayings that seems appropriate for this was,” she said, “damn the torpedoes and full steam ahead!”

Being a musician, Mike once got up at a concert at Belmont Racetrack and jammed on his harmonica with Pure Prairie League. “He was a trip,” said his sister.

Years ago, when he was in his 30’s Mike adopted a dog from the shelter, a German shorthaired pointer he named Spike. The dog had had an accident that seriously injured his leg. But instead of putting him down, Mike told the vet, “Remove the leg, I’m not losing my dog.”

Strangers knew Mike around town as the guy with the three-legged dog.

Mary Ellen Higgins told the story of the days of when no one locked their doors, and Spike, a clever canine, knowing how to open a doorknob with his mouth, would go into the Higgins family home in Sag Harbor - walk though the living room, into the kitchen and wait patiently in front of the refrigerator.

Someone would get him a piece of ham, chicken or steak and Spike would give a kiss before exiting the back door and heading on his way.

Mary Ellen recalled growing up with Mike in North Haven, running through the fields and woods.

At the beach, Spike would fly into the bay and retrieve the perfect rock and dump it at your feet. If you didn’t accept the prized rock - he’d go get you another. After Spike passed away, Mike refused to get another dog. His heart was broken. No other dog could replace Spike.

Lifelong friend Dan Sabloski memorialized Mike as the modern day Good Samaritan. “As a teenager, Mike started out as a mechanic. He could fix anything on those old cars. There was a time before cell phones, if you were broken down on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, you were stuck. Mike would always have extra stuff in his car. Wrenches, clamps, you name it. He’d stop, if he knew you or not it didn’t matter to him. He’d look under the hood, crawl underneath - get to work on it.

“Mike was a character. He’d get them back on the road! The thing was, he wouldn’t take a dime for

it. It’s probably one of the reasons he was always late for everything.

Even though we weren’t born in the same family, he was my brother, a teacher, and a faithful friend to the end. He taught me a lot about masonry. I won’t be able to look at my brick walkway without thinking of him.”

Mike loved working with his hands, whether it was as a mason building a chimney or walkway or as a musician playing a song on his guitar or harmonica. It was creating art.

Mike loved to make people happy - making them laugh and smile - his eyes and heart would light up. His friends and family spoke of his eyes - they exuded laughter. Whether you laughed with him when he told a joke or he cried with you when you were in pain, he physically empathized your joy or sorrow.

Friends Steve and Jeff Peters concurred, “We’ve lost a monument

of Sag Harbor.”

Ray Simek stated that they must have gone to about 40 Grateful Dead concerts together. “We lost a good man - Mike had love in his heart. We will miss him terribly.”

Just like Spike, Mike can’t be replaced. The Brillo-haired kid at heart and the three-legged dog are playing around in Heaven. Together again.
