V-Day Dance: Rising For Women

Independent/Kitty Merrill

By Kitty Merrill

Just like moons and like suns, With the certainty of tides, Just like hopes springing high, Still I’ll rise . . .

Maya Angelou’s words rang out in Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor Sunday evening as the Neo-Political Cowgirls dance troupe, along with V-Day founding committee member Lynn Blumenfeld, hosted a community V-Day “rising.”

V-Day is a global movement designed to draw public awareness to the fight to stop violence against women. The V stands for Victory, Valentine and Vagina. This year for the first time since its inception, V-Day celebrations included a worldwide dance.

Blumenfeld recalled the birth of the movement, born 15 years ago “in Eve Ensler’s living room.” A Tony Award winning playwright, Ensler authored The Vagina Monologues. Her experience with the play inspired the creation of V-Day. Fifteen years ago, Blumenfeld recalled, the New York Times wouldn’t print their ad because it included the word “vagina.”

“They had a problem with the word “vagina,” Blumenfeld related.

“I had a problem with [the fact that] one in five women is raped.”

On Sunday, she marveled that from those beginnings a global movement arose. Two hundred and five countries participated in V-Day this year, with public performances in places where such expression as dance is dangerous, and could mean prison or even execution.

As this year’s event approached,

Blumenfeld contacted Kate Mueth of the Neo-Political Cowgirls dance theater company. “Lynn called me and said ‘I think you should spearhead this with the NeoPolitical Cowgirls,” Mueth reported.

“It plays right in with the mission of our company . . . I felt, “If it fits like a glove, there’s no excuse not to do it.’”

NPC is a not-for-profit company operating under the auspices of the New York Foundation for the Arts.

It works with girls and women to portray their stories through dance.

The movement this year was titled, “One Billion Rising.”

Blumenfeld explained: one in three women will be raped or beaten in her lifetime. Across the globe, one in three equates to one billion women. “That’s a big number,” she said, noting that the strategies used by politicians and leaders haven’t changed the harrowing fact . . . perhaps a global awareness action will.

Bay Street Theatre donated the space and proceeds from admission offerings were to be split between the V-Day organization and The Retreat.

H o p e K r a m e r, d i r e c t o r o f philanthropy from The Retreat was on hand Sunday. She said she was thrilled to witness the performance.

The Retreat mission, she said, blends with the Cowgirls’ goal of “giving women a voice.”

According to the V-Day website, last year over 5800 benefit events were produced by volunteer activists in the United States and around the world, “educating millions of people about the reality of violence against

women and girls.”

This year, in celebration of its fifteenth anniversary, V-Day launched its One Billion Rising campaign, inviting women and those who love them to “WALK OUT, DANCE, RISE UP and DEMAND” an end to violence.

As of last year the movement raised over $90 million. Writing for The Guardian, Ensler articulated this year’s effort. While V-Day has

had successes over the last decade and a half, she said, “We expected to be out of business by now.”

Over the years, she said, “We have broken taboos, spoken the word “vagina” in 50 languages in 140 countries, called up stories and truths about violence against women, breaking the silence, supported amazing activists across the planet who have created and CONTINUED ON PAGE 24.

Teen Dating Violence Awareness Efforts

According to the New York State Office for the Prevention of Domestic Violence, 80 percent of teens say they know someone who has been controlled by a partner, and 60 percent say they know someone who has been physically abused. President Barack Obama has declared February 2013 National Teen Dating Violence and Awareness Month and encouraged local action.

Twenty-four students of local East End schools, with guidance from domestic violence services agency, The Retreat, are currently engaged in a Teen Leadership Project whose focus is raising awareness and preventing violence among teens. In

February, this group has risen to the local and national challenge and has activated students across the community to participate in prevention and awareness-building activities including, among others, this short sampling announced in a news release from The Retreat this week: At a recent East Hampton High School boys’ basketball game, players and coaches wore purple ribbons and cheerleaders donned purple laces to show support and raise awareness.

Critics Worry About Board Appointments

By Rick Murphy

The Montauk Beach House is in the news again, but this time against the backdrop of a much bigger picture.

The controversial hotspot is challenging a determination by the East Hampton Building Department that the motel operated a retail store and a poolside bar illegally because neither appeared on the original site plans.

The owners of the motel appealed to the town’s Zoning Board of Appeals. Though indications as of press time were that the ZBA was set to rule in favor of the Beach House, a much bigger issue remains – the make-up of the zoning board, and the impact a pending appointment will have on the future of the town.

Alex Walter, the chairman, and Don Cirillo, the co-chair, are joined on the board by Bryan Gosman, Sharon McCobb, and Lee White.

McCobb’s term is up.

Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson and Councilwoman Theresa Quigley, both Republicans, have attempted to name a replacement on several occasions, but have been opposed

by Democrats Peter Van Scoyoc and Sylvia Overby. They fear the new appointee would be cut from the same cloth as Cirillo, who is decidedly pro-business and prodevelopment. He, like Gosman, was appointed by Wilkinson. A third, similar board member would give the pro-development forces a majority, and some administration critics fear there could be irreparable harm done to the town as a result.

Right now, the board is at an impasse, with Dominic Stanzione, also a Republican, refusing to succumb to pressure from his party mates to rubber stamp their nominees. The Democrats would prefer McCobb, viewed as a moderate, be re-appointed.

Stanzione is holding his cards close to the vest. “Ms. McCobb has done a good job and has served the community with distinction,” he said, before quickly adding, “others could do the job with equal distinction.”

Stanzione said he objected to board appointments becoming “political footballs.” His preference is that seats on the ZBA as well as the Planning Board should be filled with, “non-political people who want to do public service.”

Last July Chief Building Inspector Tom Prieato issued a summons to the Beach House. “You are directed to cease operations,” he wrote of the retail store and outdoor bar,

noting neither received approval from the town.

Richard Hammer, representing the Beach House owners, Chris Jones and Larry Siedlick, argued that a “resort” has an inherent right to provide services such as those being offered at the Beach House. Jones told the ZBA board mislabeling the retail store and bar on the site plan was simply an oversight – the bar was originally labeled an area set aside for “Guest

Services.”

Zachary Cohen, a Democrat who nearly unseated Wilkinson in 2011, has filed a written argument with the ZBA that refutes the contention that the bar and retail shop are permitted.

Cohen argues that the Beach House is not a “resort” at all – it is not located in a resort zone, but in the downtown business district.

“The applicant continues to refer to the property as a resort, but the

certificate of occupancy states the property is a motel,” he wrote.

Cohen submitted case law to the town attorney’s office that seems to indicate that even in the best case scenario the Beach House could operate accessory uses like the bar and retail shop only for its guests.

Instead, the former Ronjo Motel, in addition to housing overnight guests in its 33 rooms, runs a Continued on Page 23.

Of course Mr. Brodsky must be mistaken, because the same bank manager from Nigeria promised to share the money with me last year.

The fact is, my office email now accepts only messages from my friends. Sadly, I have discovered I have no friends.

It turns out that the only emails I was getting came from people who wanted to enlarge my penis, sell me Viagra for a penny a pill, and give me a mortgage at two percent.

Do I miss spam?

Yes, I miss the women who wrote me every day and whose only wish was for me to see them nude. Goodbye Velma, Crissy, Misty, Wendy and Bootsie. I’m sorry I missed all those opportunities you gave me to watch you in your bath.

Goodbye to all those married women who wrote me provocative emails to tell me that their husbands were out of town too often, and all I had to do was enter their er . . . er . . . website, and I could watch photos of them doing unmentionable things to their next-door neighbors.

It’s too late now for me to meet those thousands of lonely women from Russia and Poland and the Ukraine – women who would be, for a fee, happy to show up at my doorstep, push past my wife, the beautiful Judy Licht, pick me up in their muscular peasant arms, and carry me off into the sexual sunset.

I miss it all. I still remember my first piece of spam. There I was, brand new to the Internet – an innocent. My first Internet email was from someone named Velma. It had an innocent heading, something like, “Hello Jerry, I forgot to tell you . . . Velma.”

My first reaction was I don’t remember talking to anyone named Velma, so let me open this letter.

When I clicked on the salutation on the next page, Velma offered to do sexual things to me that would

All I had to do was click onto the next page.

Naturally, I didn’t do it. But the next day there were messages from Monica and Amy and Brenda, all offering to do things to me that made Velma seem like a nun.

A few years ago I got so mad at some of the spam I was receiving that I decided to forward one piece of spam to another spam site. Try it. It can be great fun.

I forwarded “FREE SEX!!” to “NO PRESCRIPTION NEEDED FOR YOUR VIAGRA.” And I forwarded the Viagra guy to “AMAZING SOFTWARE PACKAGE,” getting a little laugh about the Viagra guy getting a software package.

I then took “BEST ADULT SITE VOTED #1” and “FREE HARDCORE FUN BARNYARD FUN EXTREME ADULT FARM ACTION,” forwarding them to this huckster: “YOU WILL NOT BE OFFENDED BY THIS SITE.” I took all of the above and forwarded them to the site whose come-on read, “ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT WHAT YOUR SPOUSE OR CHILDREN ARE DOING ON THE INTERNET?” And for good measure, I also sent all of the above to “JERRY, TAKE UP TO 25 PERCENT OFF ALL IMPORTS! SLICE UP AN ONION WITHOUT TEARS.” I must admit that even with all my current spam guards a doozy sneaked past the system the other day and actually caused me to giggle.

It read, “Hi Judy, remember me from the chat?” Naturally, I opened it, thinking the Judy mentioned was my wife. Unfortunately, it was from a young woman named Mindy who felt compelled by my dynamic screen name to offer to show me her breasts. I take it as a sign of my newfound maturity that I gratefully declined.

Deer Management: Put Bambi On The Pill?

By Kitty Merrill

As East Hampton officials continue to grapple with concocting a deer management plan -- the comment period on a draft proposal ended last week -- a segment of the community urged them to consider humane avenues, including the creation of a deer contraceptive program.

This week, The Independent looks at a program undertaken on the Fire Island National Seashore – could it work here?

Fire Island National Seashore has been involved in deer monitoring programs for over 40 years. In 1974 the deer herd on the island was estimated at 50 individuals. By the early 80s, their impact on vegetation, especially in the environmentally unique Sunken Forest, became apparent. By 1989 the population soared to an estimated 500.

In 1993 the Humane Society of the United States embarked on a research project to determine if a remotely administered immunocontraceptive vaccine might be a useful deer management tool on Fire Island.

A long-term project commenced, lasting from 1993 through 2009.

Baiting stations were set up each September and a deer darting program used porcine zona pellucida (PZP) to prevent does from becoming pregnant. In 2006, a winter darting program was added, and was conducted in 2007 and 2008. The program was only conducted as research and once its findings were published in 2009, it ended.

According to results published

by R.E. Naugle, A.T. Rutberg, H.B. Underwood, J.W. Turner, Jr., and I.K. M. Liu, between 1993 and 1997, as many as 164 female deer were darted, and fawning rates among the vaccinated does decreased by 78.9 percent.

Population density in the most heavily treated areas of the island increased at first, by 11 percent per year from ‘95 to ’98, then decreased at 23 percent per year through 2000. “These results show that PZP can be delivered effectively to sufficient deer to affect population density and composition in some environments, but that technical and logistical improvements are needed before contraception can be used widely to manage suburban deer populations,” the report notes.

Volunteers were used to monitor the darted deer, which had dye spots on their coats to indicate they had been darted.

Hunting is prohibited on Fire Island and driving is limited.

According to Paula Valentine, from the National Park Service public affairs office, the destruction of vegetation, particularly in native vegetation in the globally rare maritime holly forest, the Sunken Forest, was the driving force behind efforts to stem overpopulation. The darting program has ceased, as officials work to compile their own management plan.

Overall, Valentine said the program “did have an impact in some places and less so in others.”

She didn’t think it would be ruled out once the final plan is considered, but “it would have to have state approval.”

And that could be one of the major obstacles to such a program in East Hampton. Currently the State Department of Environmental Conservation doesn’t accept the use of contraceptives, Councilman Dominick Stanzione, who’s spearheading the local plan, pointed out. “It’s only recommended as a

Independent/James J. Mackin

research effort.”

Additionally, Fire Island’s distinct geological and geographical conditions -- a narrow island -- distinguish it from East Hampton, Stanzione noted. “Despite those differences, our plan includes the pursuit of non-lethal methodologies, including contraceptives,” he said.

“We respect the New York State

DEC expertise on these matters and will work closely with them pursuing further experiments that include contraception.” The plan offers a grant to pursue non-lethal methods of deer management.

The plan also called for an aerial survey of the population. That’s currently underway, the councilman reported. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

New Shark Regs “Drastic”

By Kitty Merrill

Dah dum. Dah dum. Since the film debuted in the 1970s, the classic opening strains of the Jaws theme song have become a leitmotif synonymous with doom. When those first notes play in the blockbuster movie, audience members know it’s the end for some swimmer or fisherman as the monster shark approaches.

Local fishermen could be hearing the same shark theme of doom this spring, if new restrictions under review by the National Marine Fisheries Service become a reality.

Designed to ameliorate an assessed overfishing of dusky, Atlantic blacknose, and scalloped hammerhead sharks, the new regs, if adopted as proposed, would affect commercial fishermen who use bottom longline gear, and recreational fishermen who catch sharks of any species.

According to a NMFS fact sheet, the recreational size limit would increase from 54 inches (four and a half feet) to 96 inches (eight feet).

Long liners could see increased

closures of off shore areas under the amendment.

Transcripts from a hearing on the proposal report a repeated complaint – why target all sharks when just one or two species are struggling? Catching dusky sharks, for example, has been prohibited since 2000. Rick Etzel of Montauk Boatmen Incorporated echoed the sentiment. Responding to a question via email he wrote, “We are not in favor of an increased size limit on all sharks because one species is having difficulty rebounding. The economic impact on the charter fleet, the recreational fleet and marinas will have a ripple effect that every business in town will feel.”

Carl Darenberg of Montauk Marine Basin traditionally hosts two shark tournaments each year.

Looking back over past years, he noted that many of the previous winners would not have even qualified under the new proposed sizes. Blue sharks that meet the restriction could be caught, but makos and threshers of the proposed size are rare enough that,

The thresher shark above won “largest overall” in a tournament in Montauk last summer. It would be one of few to make the cut if proposed new size limits become law.

said Darenberg, “It’s going to turn into a blue shark tournament.”

Joe McBride, has represented New York State on the highly migratory species advisory panel, and served on a federal advisory panel. Currently the legislative representative for Montauk Boatmen Incorporated, he feels a mild adjustment wouldn’t do any harm. But, he said, “A drastic reduction could put us out of business as far as shark fishing.”

If the proposal is adopted as drafted, McBride said it could open the door for “environmental extremists” to push for restricting another species, then another, with restrictions so extensive they’re de facto prohibitions.

McBride said the Recreational Fishermen’s Alliance, a political umbrella group in Washington, is on record in opposition to the proposal. MBI is a part of the RFA. Like Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc, who is a charter captain, McBride took issue with foreign vessels that don’t comply with catch limits or size restrictions. “They don’t care about our fish,” McBride

said. Foreign long liners operating outside the 200 mile limit can lay out as much as a hundred miles of hooks, and catch sharks only incidentally.

“The problem is not the US fisherman, the problem is the international fisherman,” McBride said. “We’re the only ones who play by the rules.”

The comment period on the proposal closed on February 12.

Margo Schultze-Haugen, chief of NMFS’s highly migratory species management division, said next steps involve reviewing comments, conducting additional analysis if needed, then formally responding to comments and preparing a final rule with a final amendment. The target implementation of the new rule is this April.

“They kind of sprung this one on us,” Darenberg observed. SchultzeHaugen said NMFS is required to come up with a management plan within two years of a determination that a species has been overfished.

She said, in this case, the scalloped hammerhead is “the driver.” kmerrill@indyeastend.com

Blazin’ The Trail

By Emily Toy

Members of the Southampton Trails Preservation Society met with the town board last Thursday morning to discuss the creation of a hamlet-to-hamlet footpath in Southampton Town.

“We have very unique and historic hamlets,” said SHTPS member Tony Garro. “A hamlet-to-hamlet system can be a tremendous asset to Southampton.”

The idea for a network of footpaths came from a recent trip the SHTPS made to England and Wales. Throughout the country, Garro explained, there were marked footpaths connecting villages and historic and natural points of interest together. This formed a network of hiking paths, with some regional trails stretching 50 to 60 miles long.

“Here in Southampton we can create a similar situation,” Garro said. “We have both the ocean and the bay as well as a tremendous amount of green space,” he added, “plus a glacial moraine as the backbone of Southampton. The public trails of Southampton are a true gift.”

The SHTPS led 88 hikes with 776 participants in 2011 alone. The

society is a 25-year-old organization that advocates for open space within Southampton Town. The SHTPS hosts weekly hikes on Saturdays and Sundays.

According to Garro, plus his colleagues Glorian Berk and Mark Potter, Bridgehampton, Sag Harbor and Noyac can be included immediately in the hamlet-to-hamlet trail project, with the possibility of adding trails in Hampton Bays, Flanders and Westhampton Beach to the network later on.

Creating the hamlet-to-hamlet footpath network would include installing kiosks at every existing trail with a description of the area, at “little to no cost for the town,”

February 20, 2013

www.indyeastend.com

according to Garro. “ We’d be remarketing, or repurposing the trails so people that want to use them can more effectively,” said Berk, president of the SHTPS. Berk added the SHTPS has reached out to the Bridgehampton and Sag Harbor Historical Societies for funds, but really “wants to be able to say Southampton Town Board is on board. We want a resolution from you to get this moving and to know it has your support.”

Deputy Supervisor Frank Zappone said the footpath network could be an asset that residents can take part of if nautical sports and activities don’t interest them.

Zappone also added, “variations in certain areas for permissible use would be helpful if they were displayed on a kiosk.”

Garro urged the town board to consider creating the footpath C

network.

“We’d be linking a trail system that ties Southampton together,” he said. “What a great idea.”

Unique Wheels For Hero’s Dad

By Kitty Merrill & Emily Toy

The classic military vehicle features an airbrushed picture of Lance Corporal Jordan Haerter.

Last Friday Automotive Technology students from Eastern Suffolk BOCES presented Jordan’s father, Christian, of Sag Harbor, with a fully refurbished 1953 Dodge M37 power wagon.

Haerter read ESBOCES students were learning how to fix military Humvees, so he contacted the Auto Technology teacher Mike O’Hara and

asked if they might be interested in restoring his 1953 Power Wagon. “I saw it as a learning experience for the students,” he said.

O’Hara went to see the vehicle in Sag Harbor and decided it was a good project for the students. “Students from the morning and afternoon auto tech program contributed to restoring this vehicle, that’s about 55 students. Many of them shared that they felt more patriotic and honored to be a part of this project,” O’Hara explained.

“It was an honor being a part of this. It’s like I’m shaking his hand and thanking him for what he has done for our country,” said Tevin Parrish, a tech student from

Artist Richard Markham airbrushed a photo of Jordan on the hood of the jeep.

The finished product was unveiled last Friday at the HB Ward Career and Technical Center in Riverhead. Haerter said it was a great way to honor Jordan, his best friend. He plans to drive the vehicle in the upcoming Sag Harbor Memorial Day parade. It will also be on display on the Lance Corporal Jordan Haerter bridge during the run from Montauk to Ground Zero.

Lance Corporal Haerter was killed in action in Iraq on April 22, 2008. The Sag Harbor native was standing guard at an entry point with fellow marine, Corporal Jonathan Yale, when a large truck accelerated toward them, ignoring all signals warning the driver to stop. When the truck failed to stop, Haerter and Yale opened fire until a 2000-pound blast claimed their lives.

Because of their efforts, the truck bomber did not make it into the post, saving the lives of the 33 marines and numerous police inside the security station. Haerter was posthumously awarded the Purple Heart, the Navy Cross and Combat Action Ribbon.

G o v e r n o r D a v i d Pa t e r s o n , Assemblyman Fred Thiele and State Senator Ken LaValle renamed Sag Harbor’s bridge as the Lance Cpl. Jordan Haerter Veterans Memorial Bridge in July 2008.

High Number Of DWI Arrests

By Kitty Merrill

East Hampton Town Police locked up a whole lotta lushes. According to the annual report released last week, a goal for 2012 was increasing overall DWI enforcement. Last year the department made 257 arrests for DWI-related offenses. That’s 101 more than the number of arrests in 2011.

Fifteen of the arrests were made by outside agency officers working in East Hampton under the Suffolk County District Attorney’s DWI Task Force, the report notes, adding, “This was a significant and substantial increase in enforcement by the members of the uniform patrol division that will continue to be a priority in the Town of East Hampton.”

The report lists five goals articulated last year, then offers an assessment regarding whether they were met.

Chief Ed Ecker listed completing the State Division of Criminal Justice Ser vices accreditation reassessment process as goal number one. The department was

due for its five-year reassessment last April and successfully achieved reaccreditation. In fact, EHTPD was the first department assessed under a new audit program, and continues to maintain its standing as “a leading agency in compliance and professional standards.”

The report points out, “The Accreditation process provides continued evaluation of procedures and policies, reduces Department liability to civil actions, increases administrative and operational effectiveness and builds public confidence in the department.”

A third goal for 2012 was the reduction of personnel time lost to line of duty injuries. Significant time was lost to line of duty (known as IOD) cases in 2011, and according to the report, “the Department has seen an overall steady increase in such cases in recent years.” The priority was reached, with IOD cases dipping from 22 to 15.

Last year’s wish list also called for the continued fostering of “a contemporary policing and p u b l i c s e r v i c e a p p r o a c h” t o the department’s mission. The

injury car accidents, increasing investigation and enforcement of state liquor authority violations, and continued focus on the quality of life and public safety issues faced by the community, particularly during the summer months.

School shootings may have prompted a final goal: evaluate and improve the department’s Action Response Plans for all schools within the Town of East Hampton and ensure all officers receive active shooter training. Coordinating training for officers at the schools, the report states, will increase the safety of schools while improving EHTPD’s readiness for potential incidents on school grounds. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

report noted the department was continuing to maintain its focus.

Quality of life issues during the summer season were another focus and the final goal listed in 2012.

“Increased productivity” in town ordinance summonses and parking summonses, increased arrests for penal law offenses and a decrease in assaults and altercations associated with quality of life, particularly in Montauk, were a result of the focused attention, tabbed effective in increasing the department’s efficiency.

The annual report also lays out goals for 2013. They include training all uniform officers in the use of the Taser, reducing the number of fatal and serious

ALMANAC January 2013, Where’s the Snow?

Yes, January was a windy and cold month but with little snow or severe gale winds as we have had in years past. This is a part of the cycle we are having now that is called Global Warming. In this cycle, which may last 10 or more years, there will be a very mild year or two, as we are having now. In the old days the large ice houses every village had, were filled with fresh water (glacial) pond ice – they did not get that kind of weather in January.

Highest temperature this January was 56 degrees on the 31st. It was in the 50’s on five days during January. Lowest temperature during this January was six degrees on the 24th, the only night in January that the temperature was in the single figures. It was freezing or lower on 21 nights. Measurable snow fell on only two days. Heaviest was 1.2 inches on the 21st. One tenth of an inch more fell on the 29th. Total rain

and melted snow for this month was 0.95 inch. Total snowfall for this January was only 2.2 inches. As of January 31st there was no snow on the ground.

We had few days when the northwest wind blew 40 miles per hour or more. Northwest is our main wind direction during this winter, except on the rainy or snowy days. It blew from the northwest on 22 days this January. Recorded were 15 clear, three partly cloudy and 13 cloudy days. On four of the days it blew from the northwest at 35 to 45 miles per hour.

As February arrived we had windier days, lower temperatures, a big snow, and skating on the fresh water ponds, plus sledding on the hill. We’ll have to wait and see what’s next.

When Gerri Boxer picked up the North hand at a recent “home” game in East Hampton last week, she picked up one of the more unusual hands she would ever see.

Although any specific hand has a probability of one out of 635 billion of occurring, it is very rare that you would pick up an all black hand.

Gerri’s partner, Ida Jennings, opened the South hand with one diamond. My partner, Norm Abell, bid one heart and Gerri bid one spade. I held the East hand and would have jumped to four hearts if we had not been vulnerable.

The bidding continued with Gerri eventually bidding a game in spades despite the fact that her team held only 21 high card points.

After I led the queen of hearts, Gerri won the first trick and proceeded to attack spades. Norm won and returned a club. When Gerri covered the ten with the jack, I played my queen and she won the trick with dummy’s king. We eventually won one club trick and two high trumps but Gerri won her game. Well bid and well played!

This hand is an excellent example of the importance of distribution as well as the high card points in a hand.

Normally you can not make a game with only 21 high card points.

Any questions or comments can be sent to gaman13927@aol.com. If you would like to learn how to play the world’s most exciting and challenging card game, why not sign up for beginning or intermediate bridge classes to be held at East Hampton High School as part of the district’s adult education program?

House Shot, Woman Pinned An Eastport woman was standing behind her car removing trash from her trunk at the Westhampton transfer station Friday morning when she was struck by a car and pinned between the two vehicles. According to Southampton Town Police, the driver of the second vehicle, a Westhampton man in a Ford Focus, was entering a parked position behind the woman. His foot slipped on the brake pedal and the car accelerated.

STPD, Westhampton Ambulance and Fire Department responded to the scene. The woman was extricated from between the two vehicles and medevac-ed to Stony Brook University Hospital for treatment of her injuries. The transfer station was closed for an hour during the investigation. No charges are expected to be filed.

Riverhead Town Police last Wednesday night charged four suspects with reckless endangerment and three of them with criminal possession of a weapon, following reports of gunfire in the area of 3rd Street in Riverhead.

Empty shell casings found at a home occupied by several adults and young children allegedly matched those found in a Taurus police pulled over leaving the scene. One of the occupants of the car was in possession of a loaded .380 caliber semi automatic handgun, police say.

Arrested were Jeffrey Despeines, 21, of Centereach, Eric Baldwin Jr., 18, of Bellport, Jordan Harrell, 18, of Medford, and Jasmine Parsons, 19, of Riverhead.

THE INDEPENDENT Q Traveler Watchman

By Rick Murphy

RICK’S SPACE I Ain’t No Snowbird, Y’all I normally don’t mind the cold weather.

In fact, for years I didn’t even have a winter coat. I was under the impression that the sensible thing to do was to spend my money on sex, drugs, and rock and roll instead of wasting it foolishly on some bulky garment.

Lately, though, I have been bemoaning the fact that I am one of those poor savages who don’t have remote start for my truck. If I did, all I would have to do is remember to turn on the defroster, heat, and seat warmers at full blast before I turned the ignition off at night. In the morning, with one click, the truck does the dirty work of heating up the car and clearing the ice from the windshield while I have my oatmeal for breakfast (or, on weekends, sex, drugs and rock and roll).

Karen, on the other hand, doesn’t much care for the blistering cold weather.

Karen has been dropping hints of late that she wants to be a “snowbird”

except she’s afraid of flying. She pours over advertisements, pining for condos in assorted warm-weather climates. I try to explain to her that since I work in East Hampton, the commute from say, the Florida Keys, would be rather time consuming, not so much the first 800 miles but when I get to Hampton Bays and have to contend with the trade traffic.

There is also the matter of actually purchasing a condo, which she thinks is a viable possibility because I haven’t found the right moment to tell her I lost the money she thinks we have playing Fantasy Football.

“It’s like gambling, right?” She once asked, innocently.

“Of course not!” I replied firmly, which is pretty true. Kind of. (It’s not gambling as long as you win.)

I hate Florida, and I always have, probably because every time I’ve been there I’ve had a rotten time. Once I was swimming when everyone jumped out of the water – it seems someone spotted a crocodile. Now this wasn’t the Everglades, mind you, but what

REAL ESTATE

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

appeared to be a manmade lake near the condo I was staying in. Yeah, we have sharks hereabouts, but they have the whole great big ocean to swim around in. I was incredulous – why would anyone in their right mind deliberately go into a body of water that might have a crocodile in it? Well, it’s the same reason why people sleep in rooms that have cockroaches the size of rats – because Floridians are incredibly stupid, that’s why.

There are more “all you can eat” restaurants in Florida then anywhere else on earth. There are no “downtowns” in Florida. There’s an all-you-can-eat place, a fast food chain restaurant, a rent-a-car place, a garish condo building with a lime green roof, a motel, a Ho-Jo, and then the pattern repeats. When I was in Orlando I felt like I was Bill Murray in Groundhog Day – everything looked exactly the same every day as if time was repeating itself except my first wife got progressively meaner and more ornery with every passing moment. Every street looked the same except for the ones with Goofy walking around.

Karen is doubly cursed because she drives a little sports car and we live in a private development, so the town doesn’t plow it. That means when it snows Karen is trapped in the house, since I refuse to let her drive the truck, believing no female can possibly harness the

IN THE NEWS

raw power of a Dodge. This leaves her with severe bouts of cabin fever.

I suggested she clean out my closet – we haven’t seen the back wall in 15 years. Apparently, that’s not her idea of quality time. (Plus, my Great Aunt Tilly went in there a long time ago and no one has seen her since.)

I personally don’t want to go anywhere else for the winter, even if I were retired. But I’m getting the distinct sense that Karen has her mind made up. I just don’t like people from Florida. They are red-necky. The men look suspiciously like pedophiles – in fact, so do some of the women, especially the ones with hair on their faces. And they all say “y’all” a lot, as if they were in the Deep South or something.

There are also a lot of senior citizens in Florida. Now, I have nothing against older folk except I don’t intend to be one. I had blue hair in 1969 I don’t need to go there again. I also don’t think my tie-dyed jammys would go over well in Miami Beach. And the last time I had a white substance caked on my nose it certainly wasn’t zinc oxide.

The only good thing about Florida is you don’t need car insurance. I could register the truck down there and use the extra cash to buy a stun gun to stave off the crocs, the roaches, and the silver-haired ladies.

Kudos to State Assemblyman Fred Thiele for proposing a bill that would raise the state’s minimum wage to $9 per hour, matching President Obama’s proposal.

There are 19 states with a higher minimum wage, and given the high cost of living in downstate New York, a raise is overdue.

The national debate has broken down according to party lines. Republicans, for the most part, oppose raising the minimum wage, which is currently $7.50 per hour.

Senator Marco Rubio defended the GOP’s position, stating, the concept of a minimum wage “has never worked.” The GOP’s argument is that a smaller company wouldn’t hire as many workers, and thus a higher wage would lead to more unemployment and a stagnant economy.

Frankly, it is rather unseemly for the same party that sought to block tax increases on the rich would oppose something at the far end of the other side of the spectrum. Working a 40-hour week for a gross salary of $300 makes it impossible to keep up with rising fuel costs in this neck of the woods. It is not enough to feed a family. It is not enough to make a car payment. Oftentimes, folks on the lower

Poster Child Dear Rick, North Haven’s Steve Kroft said that the White House chooses “60 Minutes“ to do interviews because it knows that “60 Minutes” will not play “gotcha.” Mike Wallace must be rolling in his grave.

Mr. Kroft is now the poster child for the liberal media, in bed with this White House.

In 1970, “60 Minutes” wanted to know why there were “four dead in Ohio,” but does not seem to care in 2013 why there were “four dead in Benghazi.”

Mr. Kroft will continue to have his drinks and dinner at the American Hotel and people will exclaim how they saw a famous person one night. After his Obama/ Clinton interview, not much else can be said about him.

The Minimum Wage

Independent

www.indyeastend.com

Unfair Legislation Dear Rick, It is sad to contemplate the possible demise of our dear reliable, “Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat, nor gloom of night stays these couriers from the swift completion of their appointed rounds,” Post Office.

However that P.O. may very well fall victim to the onslaught of the P.P. (Privatization Pirates).

The groundwork for the financial distress that the Postal Service is going through is caused by Congressional mandates that were imposed upon the Postal Service.

The Republican-led Congress passed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act (PAEA), signed into law by President G.W. Bush on December 20, 2006. Under the guise of modernizing the Postal Service for the 21st Century, it actually doomed the Postal Service.

If not for the PAEA, the Postal Service would be functioning fine even with the impact of email and the financial collapse of 2008.

The Postal Accountability and

end of the pay scale pay an inordinate percentage of their wages in rent, simply to afford a roof over their heads and a mattress for their children.

It is not only immoral and inhumane, but it hurts the economy far more than increasing the minimum wage would. Folks with this kind of salary are eligible for all kinds of federal and state aid – food stamps, for example, and certain types of health insurance, if their employers aren’t providing it. There are stipends to help defray fuel costs. All these funds come, directly or indirectly, from the taxpayers, and thus they add to the burgeoning deficit.

It’s hard to believe an employer whose business is increasing would balk at paying an extra $1.50 per hour for needed employees. Numerous studies have proven workers respond to incentives and actually produce more when they feel they are being treated fairly.

There are scenarios when increasing the minimum wage is impractical, but not nearly enough to offset the benefit to hundreds of thousands of hard working citizens struggling to make a life for themselves and their families.

E n h a n c e m e n t A c t ( PA E A ) i s a n unprecedented piece of legislation that requires the USPS to pre-fund its pension benefits for 75 years through the $5.5 billion annual payment which no other government agency or private company is forced to do.

The Postal Service does not receive taxpayer dollars for operational costs, but is nonetheless under congressional control. The USPS is legally obligated to deliver mail to every single house in the country, including in remote areas where UPS and FedEx won’t venture.

Were the USPS to collapse, it would hit poor Americans the hardest. And while other private delivery companies have continued to grow and diversify, Congress has stymied the Postal Service from directly competing.

The solution is simple; repeal the pre-funding mandate of the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, implement common sense postal service reforms, and stop undermining the USPS with needless and unfair legislation.

Wake Up America Dear Editor, My heart goes out to all those touched by the recent horrendous massacre in Newtown and to all others touched by similar acts of horror. Because of this I must speak out.

I have stood by for many years, silently listening to the insane ravings of ignorant, uninformed anti-gun advocates. I can be silent no longer.

The recent Newtown shootings typify the problem and it is not a gun control problem, it is a social problem.

For decades the television and movie industry have glorified violence, rape, murder, dismemberment, torture etc. and no one dares say a word because these people control everything we see and hear. Our children have been constantly bombarded with this garbage from infancy through adulthood. The results are devastating as they are taught to be desensitized to the horrors these acts represent.

encouraged to emulate what they see so constantly on TV and in the movies. Yet, the money hungry industry goes unpunished and continues to profit from its crimes against society. It is easier and more politically correct to blame guns and lawabiding gun owners for these acts, while the real problem is what motivates these horrendous acts.

I believe the blame sits squarely on the shoulders of those who produce these brain washing, society changing productions on TV and in the movies. This is what needs to be changed!

In the interim honest, law abiding citizens ask only one thing . . . allow us to arm ourselves so we can defend ourselves against the monsters these industries have created.

Just one armed citizen in Newtown could have reduced the carnage dramatically and one armed citizen on the Long Island Railroad train might have stopped Colin Ferguson before he finished the carnage there.

Keep in mind criminals and the deranged are cowards, they attack only soft targets and the anti-gunners are creating more and more soft targets, playing directly into their hands.

Wake up America! The time is now to boycott these violent movies, music videos, video games, etc. They are destroying the minds of innocent young children and this country!

Should we raise the debt ceiling?

Sara Darehshori In order to pay the debts we’ve already incurred we need to raise the debt ceiling. If you make a commitment to pay… you have to pay. And if raising the debt ceiling is the only way we can pay our debts I don’t see that we have any other choice.

Camille Simcoff No we should not. We have enough debt and now we have to lower it. So the next step is to audit our system. We need to insure that our tax dollars are being spent as they should be and the waste needs to be controlled. I don’t think anyone really oversees that.

Francoise LeFleur Yes we should raise it. It would give us a greater opportunity to borrow more so that we can do more. We shouldn’t raise the ceiling just to pay what we already owe. It should be borrowed with an eye towards future investment in what we need to do.

Danielle Goodwin I think we have to raise the debt ceiling. The last time we fooled around with not raising it our bond rating went down and we seemed really foolish to the rest of the world. We can’t look like we can’t even figure ourselves out.

Riley Avenue School First graders are actively engaged in learning about heart health. Sheila Davies, a Nurse Practitioner at North Shore University Hospital LIJ and a parent of a first grader, volunteered to teach a unit on heart health to the first graders in a program she calls the “Heartist” project.

“This is a fantastic parentinitiated program,” exclaims Riley Avenue Principal David Enos. “The program works on so many levels, and it is a great example of character education and community service of the highest order. We’re very thankful to Ms. Davies and the North Shore University Hospital.”

Ms. Davies and a colleague, Diana Smith (a registered nurse at North Shore University Hospital), shared information with the children about what they need to do to maintain a heart healthy lifestyle. They discussed elements of a healthy diet, exercise, and behaviors like smoking that can interfere with heart health.

The first graders worked in small groups to learn about how the heart pumps -- making the sound of a pumping heart as Ms. Davies pumped a sponge heart. The students busily put together plastic models of the heart.

They paired up to use a stethoscope to listen to each other’s hearts.

East Hampton High School Challenge Day is a nationally recognized program whose goal is to build community and to help stop the teasing, bullying, violence and alienation that is, unfortunately, a deep part of the school experience for millions of young people every day. Challenge Day is a powerful and transformational opportunity the way people view each other as well as a day of fun, friendship and new possibilities. Challenge Day will be conducted over a three-day period March 12,13,14. Parents should look for a letter from the administration with more information.

Ross Upper School In honor of the Chinese New Year, the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays, Ross Upper and Lower Schools organized a bevy of activities this week, from dumpling making to dragon dances.

Students taking Mandarin in grades 6–12 prepared dumplings in the Café. On February 13, grades 6–8 convened in Gandhi Hall for an official celebration. Students worked together to present a dragon dance, a tradition in Chinese culture.

This performance was followed by a zodiac race, which relates to the Chinese calendar and the 12-

year cycle of animals. Students in ESOL also performed a song, which was followed by a story about the monster nian. At the Lower School, teacher June Chen made dumplings with the fourth and fifth graders in the Lower School Café.

Finally, the fifth graders built their own beautiful Chinese dragon and performed a dragon dance for the entire Lower School during their weekly assembly.

On February 7, students in grades 9–12 had the opportunity to show off their collective talents at their Winter Performing Arts Concert.

In-class celebrations took place for every grade at the Lower School.

Students decorated cards and exchanged them, along with gifts, with their classmates. Some classes tackled more in-depth projects.

day, and Heart Maps are a way for the children to put their thoughts, feelings, and ideas on paper,” she said.

Meanwhile, teacher Lea Abrams’ fourth graders had a Valentine’s Day tea party where they shared their wishes for the world with each other and their parents, who were invited to attend. In return, parents were asked to share their own wishes.

The girls in the class even wrote an original Valentine’s song, which they sang for everyone.

Nevertheless, Walter indicated from the chair at the most recent ZBA meeting that he agreed with Hammer’s interpretation of the case law sited, even though critics privately fumed the chairman hadn’t read Cohen’s submissions at the time.

The perception by some critics is that Wilkinson and Quigley have gotten too chummy with the Beach House owners. They originally approved Jones’s plan to hold a summer concert in Amagansett that was vilified by many residents.

Wilkinson unilaterally sold a strip of land owned by the town that runs through the Beach House property to the owners without consulting the rest of the town board and without getting an appraisal. Wilkinson even made a speech praising the owners when the facility opened.

Siedlick has donated money to Republican Party candidates in the past and a partner at Farrell Fritz, a law firm that employs Quigley, has a business relationship with him. The firm has represented Siedlick in the past on more than one occasion.

Regardless of what happens at the Beach House, the future makeup of the planning and zoning boards will determine what direction the town takes in coming years. “They could unravel decades of some of the most significant environmental preservation in the entire nation,” said Jeanne Frankl, the chairwoman

Quigley, for her part, has argued that the planning and zoning process is too cumbersome and designed to discourage applicants.

Frankl acknowledged the town needs to “expedite the process.”

“The Zoning Board of Appeals should be a conservative board that sets a high bar to the granting of variances. Respect for the prevailing law is a paramount requirement for a ZBA member,” Cohen said. He pointed out that the New York State ZBA Handbook states: “The creation of a board of appeals . . . is not to destroy zoning as a policy, but to save it.”

The Beach House also has an application in with the Planning Board to construct a trellis, an outdoor barbecue, and install a grease trap.

Fast, Exciting Times Across Big East You’ll often hear broadcasters, sports writers, and fans bemoan the weeks following the Super Bowl.

They’ll point to the lull before March Madness, MLB opening day and The Masters as the most boring time of year for sports. And for many fans that may be true again this year.

But Big East basketball fans should be on the edge of their seats as we approach the finish line.

The parity across college basketball, including the Big East, is foreshadowing what should be an extra-mad month of March. The top teams in the Big East (similar to the nation) are as vulnerable as they’ve been in recent memory.

With no clear front-runner, Big East fans can expect a wild race to the finish line -- not just for first place, but also for the final spots in this year’s Big Dance. While it’s likely that either Syracuse, Marquette, Georgetown or Louisville will win the conference and be favored in next month’s tournament, each of these teams has suffered at least one surprising loss so far.

The Red Storm are on the bubble and could help their NCAA chances immensely by winning three of their next five, starting tonight against South Florida. From there, the schedule includes Pittsburgh, Providence, Notre Dame, and Marquette; three ranked opponents in their final four. If they want a chance to dance, the Red Storm need the two expected wins over USF and Providence, and have to pick off at least one of the remaining three. After last year’s 13-win campaign, fans will take the bubble discussion that surrounds the Johnnies. But, when you’re this close, being one of the “first four out” can be even more bittersweet than a 13-win season.

Villanova, and now Cincinnati

also find themselves on the bubble.

The Bearcats seemed a shoe-in just a few weeks ago, but have now lost three of four. The road won’t get any easier for Cincinnati with tough battles coming against UConn twice, and Notre Dame and Louisville on the road.

Meantime, on Saturday the Wildcats picked up an impressive victory over UConn to add to wins over powerhouses Syracuse and Louisville. Villanova wraps up their season with three of four ranked teams (Marquette, Pittsburgh, and Georgetown).

The UConn Huskies would also be on the bubble if they were eligible. But due to low Academic Progress Rate scores from 2007 to 2011 under former head coach, Jim Calhoun, this group suffered and was banned from dancing. Kevin Ollie still has the team playing hard, and received a well-deserved extension mid-season.

The great part of Big East hoops is that a team can be on the bubble but still control its own fate. Teams in Conference USA, Mountain West, Ohio Valley, and even the Pac-12, and SEC, oftentimes don’t have the luxury of facing three ranked teams in their final four or five games. The Johnnies, Bearcats and Wildcats have a chance to earn their tickets.

The remaining bubble teams (Cal, Arizona State, and Kentucky) need help from other teams, combined with a win in their respective conference tournaments in order to secure a spot.

Who ever said February was a boring sports month? Not the case for East End Big East basketball fans this year.

SPORTS Bees End Shelter Island’s Dream Season INDEPENDENT

By Rick Murphy

Shelter Island has never won a county championship, but when Miles Clark drilled a third quarter three pointer to put the Indians ahead by six, the dream seemed real indeed.

Alas, the Bridgehampton Killer Bees, the defending Long Island Class D champions and winners of 10 state titles, weren’t ready to concede.

Instead, The Bees ratcheted up the defensive pressure and began pounding the boards with pugnacious intensity, and the Islanders slowly yielded. They ultimately lost the momentum, and then the game.

It was a defensive struggle from the outset. Shelter Island, packed in a zone, did an excellent job of getting back on defense, and the Bees seemed content to fire away from the outside. Initially, the strategy worked – a Tylik Furman trey gave the Bees a seven point first quarter cushion. But Bridgehampton went cold, and the Indians, playing before a loyal crowd of over 100 fans at the Westhampton High gym, charged back.

Nathan Mundy scored in the paint to narrow the Bridgehampton

★

lead to two, 12-10. Minutes later Hunter Starzee’s short jumper gave the Indians the lead for the first time, 16-14. Shelter Island enjoyed a five-point lead at halftime and were up 26-21 midway through the third courtesy of two free throws by Riley Willumsen. But the winds of change were blowing.

For one thing, Carl Johnson, the Bees’ coach and a three-time state champion as both a player and coach, shifted things around on defense. Sometimes the Bees went into a full court press – on several occasions they shifted into a 1-3-1 zone. Whatever the case, the Bees were forcing more and more turnovers.

The big difference though, was in the paint. Josh Lamison, only a freshman, began to dominate on both sides of the court and Jason Hopson hit the boards hard as well.

Late in the third quarter, the hard work began to really pay off for Bridgehampton. A clutch threepointer by Jerome Walker narrowed the Indians’ lead to a single point.

The Bees immediately forced a turnover, and Tylik Furman drained another trey. That opened the floodgates. Lamison scored on two putbacks sandwiched between two

Shelter Island coaches urge their charges on during the County Class D championship team.

The Indians were beaten by Bridgehampton.

Shelter Island misses, and suddenly Bridgehampton held a 34-30 lead.

As the fourth quarter opened Shelter Island’s coaches urged their charges to look for good shots but instead the Bees forced another turnover and Anajae Lamb fed Furman for an easy basket. Then, a blocked shot -- the Bees recorded nine unofficially -- led to another Lamison score.

The Bees, with Hopson, a talented senior, moving over to the point guard spot, were running and catching the Indians, clearly tiring, flatfooted. Lamb’s long three gave the Bees a 12 point lead, and when Hopson grabbed an offensive rebound and scored at the three minute mark the Bees led by 17

and had, remarkably, scored 17 unanswered points.

The Bees scored a trifecta with the win. It allowed them to move into the County Tournament, going up in class to take on the County C champion, Stony Brook, with a chance to advance to the BCD game. The C/D game is slated for today at 4 PM in Patchogue-Medford High School. More important, the Bees, as County D champs, earn a berth in the New York State Class D tournament. Finally, because there are no D teams in Nassau County, the Bees have been crowned Long Island Class D champs as well.

The Bees will play against the Section IX champs on March 5 in the regional semifinals – the site hasn’t been announced yet. Lamison, with 16 points, and Furman, with 15 paced the winners. Lamb had nine and Hopson eight. Lamison also grabbed 18 rebounds, and Hopson snared a dozen. Mundy led the losers with 13 points.

Both Southampton Teams Eye Titles

By Rick Murphy

The Southampton boys’ basketball team has been pining for a rematch with Babylon since that rival defeated the Mariners in January. That day comes today, and this time the Suffolk County Class B championship is on the line.

The locals advanced into the championship game by besting Wyandanch last Thursday, 71-65 at home. The victory did not come easy – it was a seesaw battle for most of the game, and the locals clung to a one-point lead after three stanzas.

The team has been there before, and its veteran mentor, Herm Lamison, knows from experience that crunch time is the time to give the ball to your go-to guy, and that would be Shaundelle Fishburne.

It seemed that ever y time the Mariners needed a big play, Fishburne delivered. Not only did he lead all scorers with 23 points, but also he dished off for seven other scores – several of his pinpoint passes found Taylor Sanders, who tallied 21. Lyle Smith, as he has done all season, did the dirty work in the paint, grabbing 16 rebounds. Southampton, 15-4 on the season, and the Class B number

two seed, plays Babylon (#1) at 6 PM at Patchogue-Medford. Babylon knocked out Center Moriches last Thursday to earn a berth in the finale.

The Southampton Lady Mariners, defending Long Island Champs, had their eye on a second consecutive S u f f o l k C l a s s B title a s T he Independent went to press. The locals, who earned a bye in the first round, were to play the Lady Red Devils of Center Moriches last night in the title game.

The Southold/Greenport girls’ team scored an impressive win over Port Jefferson last Wednesday, but, alas, fell short in the Class C title game, succumbing to mighty Stony Brook, the number one seed.

Nichole Busso (24) and Melissa Rogers (17) led the effort against Port Jefferson.

The Riverhead Lady Waves scored an impressive opening round win against Half Hallow Hills last Thursday, 61-36. The defending Long Island Class AA champs got 22 points from Shanice Allen and 20 from Naysha Trent, who also grabbed 10 rebounds and recorded three assists. The locals, the number seven seed, play this evening at Sachem, the two seed.

Bonac Teams Bite The Dust

By Rick Murphy

Though several local teams are still alive in the county high school

basketball tournaments, many more suffered the agony of defeat and are done for the season.

Among them are the East Hampton boys’ and girls’ teams, both of whom lost in the opening rounds in their respective Class A tournament.

The Lady Bonackers, the fifth seed, ran into a hot Islip team Friday and were bested 71-41 on the winner’s home floor. Islip earned the number four seed. Kaelyn Ward, who went over the 1000-point mark earlier this season, made her final game a memorable one, tallying 25 points in defeat.

The Bonac boys, the sixth seed in Class A, suffered a heartbreaking setback last Thursday, dropping a 56-53 nail-biter to Islip on the

winners’ court.

The locals tied the game with less than a minute to play but could not hit the critical shot that might have nailed down the upset. Rolando Garces led the losers with 22 points and Thomas King added 14. Islip is the third seed.

The Pierson boys, who beat Greenport February 12 to earn a berth in the Class C championship game, were clobbered by Stony Brook Thursday at Westhampton.

The Whalers had beaten the Bears only two weeks ago, but Stony Brook played its starters sparingly in that affair. This time around, the League VIII champs showed no mercy, breaking open a 26-22 game with a blistering 15-1 third quarter run. Forrest Loesch tallied 16 for the losers.

The Riverhead boys, seeded fifth in Class AA, were upset at home by Longwood Friday, 61-51. The locals seemed flat and had trouble getting into the flow of the game, falling behind by double digits early in the fray. Markin Austin (14) and Ryan Blitzer (11) were the scoring leaders for the Wave.
