Jay Declines GOP Nod

By Kitty Merrill

Jay Schneiderman finally jumped off the fence . . . and landed on the safe side. After months of hinting at a run for East Hampton Town supervisor, after screening with both the local Republican and Democratic committees, and after receiving the nod from the GOP, the county legislator announced Monday that he’ll seek re-election to his current position. Under county term limits, this would be his last run for reelection to the seat.

In a release announcing the decision, Schneiderman voiced a desire to continue his work at the county level. He has a good relationship with County Executive Steve Bellone and, after years of sparring (often unsuccessfully) with Bellone’s predecessor, Steve Levy, Schneiderman feels a sense of accomplishment in the legislature.

It’s been rumored post service county job was promised to seal the deal. Schneiderman scoffed at the notion, saying, “What kind of job, Grand Poobah? There are no promises in this world, never a

guarantee. Who knows what the next two years will bring?”

Veteran watches of local politics noted that with over a decade as an elected official, and over a half dozen campaigns under his belt, Schneiderman has rarely had to face a viable opponent. In 1999 he rode a wave of anti-Democrat Party sentiment to victory, ousting incumbent Supervisor Cathy Lester and gaining a GOP majority on the town board. In 2003, the same swing of sentiment landed him on the legislature’s horseshoe.

Overall, opponents in re-election bids have been weak, if present at all. In 2009 he ran unopposed, with endorsements across the board.

Priding himself on an abiding desire to work across party lines, Schneiderman may have balked at entering East Hampton’s partisan fray. He screened with local Democrats for the supervisor seat.

And, while the committee won’t make a formal decision for months, and members remain mum about preferences, even their public reaction to endorsing Schneiderman was tepid. When asked about

nominating Schneiderman for the seat earlier this winter Committee chair Jeanne Frankl’s response was lukewarm at best. “We welcome every one who wants to screen,” she said.

In the next breath, however, she embraced the potential of running retiring Village Administrator Larry Cantwell for the town’s top spot. A Cantwell v. Schneiderman race would have been close, perhaps too close for the comfort of Schneiderman, given his history of easy victories and blood-less campaigns. A narrow victor y and the loss of the Republican majority on the town board is a distinct possibility. Observers have predicted a voters’ pendulum swing away from Republicans, spurred by dissatisfaction with the current administration, particularly Supervisor Bill Wilkinson and Councilwoman Theresa Quigley.

Reached on vacation in Florida this week, Cantwell said, “I respect Jay’s decision. As a public servant, he’s been put in a very difficult position.” Like his erstwhile opponent, Cantwell has yet to

Independent/Kitty Merrill

decide whether he will make the run for office. Zach Cohen, who lost a close race against incumbent Supervisor Bill Wilkinson in 2011, is also interested in the nomination.

So, where does that leave the GOP? “I’m a little disappointed,” Committee char Kurt Kappel admitted Monday. The committee anointed Town Clerk Fred Overton and incumbent Councilman Dominick Stanzione to round out the ticket with Schneiderman. Has thought been given to elevating either of the pair to the supervisor seat? “That’s very possible,” Kappel said, “We’re going to re-open the screening process.”

Asked if he’d seek that elevation, Overton said, “Oh, maybe, I don’t know. I’ve been asked to consider Continued on page 8.

HACKED BY A PORN SITE AND SOME OTHER HAPPY THOUGHTS I’ve been hacked by a Chinese porn site.

According to my IT guy they may have sent out over a million porn messages under my name. Last Saturday I started getting messages with Chinese writing on my computer. They were coming in faster than I could delete them. Over 50,000 messages on the first day. I’ve been staring at the Chinese symbols of the message: 温馨提醒：本俱乐部创办以来，有 极少数会员影响了家庭，给俱乐部 造成了麻烦，望大家不要影响家庭 为前提，娱乐为主，切勿纵欲。约 会时不要带过多现金，注意人身安 全!

And frankly I’m getting very turned on. Also, I have this great desire for the food of my youth. I would give some big bucks for some chicken chow mein and an egg roll.

THE POPE . . . is a double for my Uncle Louie. Perhaps my Uncle Louie, to get away from my Aunt Mary, faked his death and fled to South America.

When I saw the new Pope for the first time I fully expected to see my Aunt Mary, who weighed 250 pounds, pushing aside Cardinals like bowling pins and standing next to Pope Louie aka Pope Francis and nagging him and making his life miserable.

I think the new Pope missed a great opportunity when he came out on the balcony of St. Peter’s for the first time.

He could have won the hearts of the world by walking out, blessing the crowd with his hands then opening his mouth and singing: “DON’T CRY FOR ME ARGENTINA” That’s what’s been missing for

One was to do the studies and one was to write the reports.

So they created two positions, a Timekeeper and a Payroll Officer, then hired two people.

Then someone said, “Who will be accountable for all of these people?”

So they created an Administrative Section and hired three people, an Administrative Officer, Assistant Administrative Officer, and a Legal Secretary.

Then another bureaucrat said, “We have been in operation for one year and we are $918,000 over budget, we must cut back.”

So they laid off the night watchman.

It was very simple . . . and at the time, everybody thought it very appropriate.

The Department of Energy was instituted on August 4, 1977, to lessen our dependence on foreign oil.

And now it’s 2013 – 36 years later – and the budget for this “necessary” department is at $24.2 billion a year. It has 16,000 federal employees and approximately 100,000 contract employees; and look at the job it has done to lessen dependence on foreign oil.

Thirty four years ago 30 percent of our oil consumption was foreign imports. Today 70 percent of our oil consumption is foreign imports.

Ah, yes – good old federal bureaucracy.

County Calls Cyril Plan ‘Spot Zoning’

By Kitty Merrill

Under state law, town officials are required to send planning and zoning proposals to the Suffolk County Planning Commission for review. More often than not, the county planners deem the requests “a matter for local determination,” meaning they don’t have the potential for significant countywide or inter-community impacts.

But when it came to the Cyril’s Fish House zone change request, county commissioners had something to say.

They did, still, deem the request to downzone land located on Montauk Highway in Napeague from residential to a commercial designation, a matter for local d et er min ation , b u t i n cl u d e d comments Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc said raise “lots of big, red flags.”

In a letter to Planning Director Marguerite Wolffsohn, Chief Planner Andrew P. Freleng and County Planning Director Sarah Lansdale opined the change of zone request “appears to be spot zoning and could set a precedent for other

parcels in the area.” that patrons If the town wants The change of zone request routinely use to create a node of a parking area commercial activity in “appears to be spot zoning.” for drinking the area, they noted, and can even “It should be pursued surge out through a comprehensive plan/ onto Montauk Highway. Supporters hamlet plan process.” say the zone change is necessary for A former town planning board the owners to address parking and member himself, Van Scoyoc offered, septic problems at the site.

“This is a big deal, that they would Overby pointed out that speakers weigh in like that . . . ‘Why would at the hearing mentioned the you even consider this?’ is what I got notion of spot zoning. According from their letter.” He agreed with to a Department of State report county counterparts that a zone on zoning and comprehensive change could set “a huge precedent.” planning, spot zoning is “the Van Scoyoc and Councilwoman rezoning of a parcel of land to Sylvia Overby opposed the notion a use category different from of holding a public hearing on the the surrounding area, usually to zone change. The town planning benefit a single owner or a single board deadlocked on the request development use.” Illegal spot to downzone parcels owned by Michael Dioguardi, one of which is currently home to the popular watering hole, Cyril’s Fish House.

The hearing earlier this month drew a number of opponents who spoke out against what they saw as a reward for bad behavior. The Fish House is currently charged with 45 code violations; neighbors complain

zoning occurs whenever “the change is other than part of a well-considered and comprehensive plan calculated to serve the general welfare of the community,” according to a court case cited in the publication.

“This is the first time I’ve seen those words [spot zoning] used on anything from the planning commission,” Overby, who served on the town planning board for seven years said. “That’s an opinion that tells us to be aware of what we’re doing.” Moving forward to approve the zone change, she said, “I think it puts the town in jeopardy of a lawsuit, especially with this determination by Suffolk County.”

The comment period for the proposal concludes tomorrow. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

Sickles To Be Reinstated

By Rick Murphy

The long, strange saga of Southampton Town Police Officer Eric Sickles will take a new turn tomorrow -- the town board is set to reinstate him.

Sickles was a member of the town police department’s now disbanded Street Crimes Unit and was accused of working while high on prescription medication. The Suffolk County DA’s office opened an investigation, and District Attorney subsequently voided several convictions Sickles played a part in obtaining.

Town Supervisor Anna ThroneHolst said yesterday an agreement has been forged between the town, the Police Benevolent Association

and Sickles that is to be ratified Thursday.

Sickles will return to active duty.

“We have come to an agreement.

There will be certain conditions,” Throne-Holst said.

Last summer Sickles was suspended after the Suffolk County District Attorney seized numerous boxes of evidence from the town and launched an investigation into police department practices. Sickles then entered a rehab program, town officials said.

Sickles’ direct super visor, Lt. James Kiernan, had been on suspension since the previous May. The allegation is that Kiernan let Sickles continue on the job despite the fact he was allegedly hooked on medication. That meant carrying a weapon, making undercover buys and making arrests. Kiernan has since been reinstated as well.

Tw o c o n v i c t e d f e l o n s - Mohammed H. Proctor, 36, of Riverside, and Bernard T. Cooks, 31, of Southampton, -- were released from jail in May, 2012 because the evidence obtained in the arrest, presumably arrests involving Sickles, was “tainted,” according to

a statement by the Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota.

Proctor subsequently sued Southampton Town for $50 million, claiming among other things that police threatened his son to coerce him to sign a false statement implicating himself.

Kwame Opoku, of North Sea, who was arrested by Street Crimes Unit in 2011 and subsequently convicted, recently announced he was suing the town as well after his conviction was voided.

Craig Chillemi of Southampton also has filed suit against the town.

In court papers he alleges cocaine was planted on him by an undercover police officer, and that he was wrongfully imprisoned as a result of their actions. The suit identifies Sickles and Kiernan, among other members of the Street Crimes Unit.

Throne-Holst said, “I am not worried about the lawsuits,” but said she could not comment further because of the litigation.

The Independent previously reported that the town does not have adequate insurance to protect taxpayers should it lose the suits and be forced to pay damages.

With over 25 years in town hall, Overton’s well aware of what the job of supervisor entails – the hours, the battles, the partisan fighting, the impact on family life.

“There’s a lot to consider,” he said.

“Jay’s a good man,” Stanzione offered. “His decision was, I’m sure, personal, and respectful of his family. It opens the door to numerous possibilities.”

A Cantwell/Overton race would be the first in a long while to see two born and bred locals facing off, both with decades of public service in their resumes. Asked if he’d consider a supe run, Stanzione said, “I haven’t thought about it.”

Whether Overton or Stanzione step up to the top of the ticket, or decide to stand pat, Kappel reported that a number of candidates had voiced interest in running for the town board and supervisor, but backed off once they learned of the potential Schneiderman/Overton/ Stanzione ticket. “Now that Jay’s made it official, I’ll be giving them a call,” he said. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

Deer Survey Complete

By Kitty Merrill

An aerial survey of the deer population in East Hampton, using infrared technology, has been completed. The town board was expected this week to move forward with funding that will cover the second half of the project undertaken by the firm, Vision Air Research. The board voted to spend $13,174 on the survey earlier this year.

The airborne census was listed among the first steps to complete in the creation of a comprehensive deer management plan, Councilman Dominick Stanzione, who is spearheading the effort, reminded this week.

Vision Air Research specializes in wildlife surveys using airborne infrared sensor or forward-looking

infrared (FLIR) technology. The firm was chosen to survey an area east of Sag Harbor, with Town Line Road as the westernmost boundary of the land to be scrutinized.

Video surveys of the land would allow Vision Air staff to extract animal group locations from the film and map them, with the size of each group noted.

An article in Wildlife Professional magazine by Vision Air Research President Susan Bernatas reports that a deer’s ears give off so much energy, that they can be spotted from 15,000 feet above ground. The infrared sensor is attached to the wing of a Cessna plane and can detect heat emitted by the animals.

With a completed survey in hand,

town officials will be able to move forward in adopting a comprehensive management plan. Stanzione has repeatedly pointed out that the plan will include varied alternatives for managing the population. At a well-attended hearing on the draft document late last year most speakers weighed in in favor of thinning the herd.

Increased cases of deer-related diseases, of deer vs. car accidents, and of forest deterioration were cited in both the plan and by speakers as justification for taking the lethal measure. Opponents questioned estimated costs of a culling, favored more humane measures, such as contraceptives, and refuted assertions that fewer deer would mean fewer cases of Lyme disease and other tick borne illnesses.

They also questioned whether the population really has grown, or whether deer are simply more

noticeable because development and the increased use of deer fences have led to a loss of historic habitat.

Good News For Weary Motorists Assemblyman Fred Thiele, Jr. announced this week that the New York State Department of Transportation has granted his request and that of 10 other elected officials representing areas traversed by Montauk Highway, the key South Fork arterial. The agency has agreed to amend the State Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) to include reconstruction of a 10-mile stretch of Montauk Highway from CR 39 to Stephen Hands Path.

The proposed construction would cost approximately $12.53 million.

State DOT already had scheduled the reconstruction of a 2.3-mile stretch of the highway from SR 114 to Stephen Hands Path for the spring of this year.

As reported in a March 6 Independent cover story Thiele had spearheaded an effort with federal, state, county, and local officials to expand the 2.3-mile project in a letter dated February 7, 2013 to the Governor and State DOT Commissioner. Thiele stated, “Congressman [Tim] Bishop, State Senator Ken LaValle, County Legislator Jay Schneiderman, and every South Fork Supervisor and Mayor joined with me to request the reconstruction of Montauk Highway. Not only did the Governor and Commissioner Joan McDonald respond favorably, they were quick in responding so that this project can get underway in 2013. I thank them for their fast action.”

The project would be funded by federal and state funds. The comment period on the proposed amendment to the TIP will end on Friday. After that, the project will be included in the TIP and detailed design work will begin.

The construction of the segment between SR 114 and Stephen Hands Path will begin this spring and the remaining work from Stephen Hands Path to CR 39 will commence after Labor Day this year.

Thiele added, “I urge all local elected officials and the public to weigh in with the State DOT before the Friday deadline.”

An Alternative To Rising Insurance Premiums

By Rick Murphy

Two local companies have teamed together to offer an alternative to pricey – and ever rising – health insurance.

Karl Washwick, who runs the Washwick Insurance Agency, has partnered with Island Group to offer a viable alternative to rising costs.

The Island Group Administrative Access Plan (IGAPP) is not insurance, Washwick stressed in an interview.

Instead, he said, “It’s buying medicine at insurance company rates,”

obtained by taking advantage of “preneogotiated discounts” from local doctors and health care providers. The savings can be significant.

Island Group is a third party administrator that specializes in self-insurance. Through its huge network of clients, which include Southold Town and the Village of Sag Harbor and several school districts, it has negotiated reduced rates for its clients, similar to what health insurance providers pay. “There is no paperwork, no plans. When we pay a claim for one of our self-insured

clients we may pay $50 instead of $150,” said Alan Kaplan of Island Group.

Members then pay the preneogtiated rates for a variety of services, including dental care. “We are not insurance, so personal services are included,” Kaplan said. Plastic surgery, medical massages, dental expenses like caps and crown all have discounted rates. There is even a reduced rate for substance abuse treatment facilities like Seafield.

An office visit usually billed at $130 costs $88 with the plan. A Pap smear that costs $155 without a card is only $40 with it.

Medication is discounted as well, by between 25 and 50 percent depending on the prescription. A CVS/ Caremark prescription card provided with the Access plan is accepted at over 60,000 pharmacies.

“It’s the next rock to jump to from ObamaCare,” Washwick said.

“Newsday says the recession is over but I don’t see it that way.”

Wa s h w i c k o f f e r s h o s p i t a l insurance to pair with the Access plan. For example, Empire charges $184 a month for an individual and $415 for a family. “It’s roughly the equivalent of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Plan we all had back in the day,” Washwick pointed out. “People loved it.”

It’s a valuable fallback position, for example, for a father who gets laid off and faces an $1800 monthly Cobra payment for his family plan. It’s also an effective tool for families who have children living at home who no C

longer qualify for benefits under the family’s plan.

The Access plan is also an affordable incentive employers who IndependentAd_July12_Vert.pdf 1 can no longer foot the bill for health insurance can offer to employees.

For The Independent’s ongoing Health & Fitness series and “Indy Gets Fit” blog, (check them out on our website, www.indyeastend.com) staffers recently undertook the following: • Jessica Mackin, who is young and beautiful, with skin like porcelain, went to a spa for a body treatment, • Emily Toy, who is young and beautiful, with skin like peaches and cream, went to a spa for a facial, • This reporter, who is not young, is probably creating wrinkles while attempting to climb imaginary hills at killer spin classes.

The classes are wonderful – exhilarating and challenging -- but when the opportunity to experience the Naturopathic Natural Face Lift Facial arose, I just had to say, “Step aside, youngins.

Let’s give those experts something to work with.”

This Saturday visitors to Naturopathica Holistic Health in the Red Horse complex in East Hampton can meet CEO and founder Barbara Close and try an express facial. Close, a clinical esthetician, aromatherapist and herbalist founded Naturopathica over 15 years ago, with the goal of helping people attain optimal well-being. In addition to giving the Natural Face

Lift Facials, this Saturday between 11 AM and 6 PM, she’ll also offer customized skin care recommendations to visitors.

To get a preview of the Natural Face Lift Facial, I met with Naturopathica’s therapist Joanne Kruszynski for the 60-minute treatment. Joanne specializes in anti-aging treatments. They’re her “passion,” she said, and her own luminous skin is testament to a “practice what you preach” lifestyle.

The Natural Face Lift Facial is unique in that it incorporates ultrasonic and microcurrent technologies to exfoliate and ensure moisturizing lotions can penetrate deep into lower layers of the skin. Special plant stem cell serum designed to combine protective and corrective antioxidants is a key component of the treatment.

Joanne began the facial with an examination of my skin. She believes the skin is an important elimination system in the body – toxins are flushed through it, and health issues or internal inflammation are apparent to the experienced eye. She saw patterns in my skin that indicate a dairy sensitivity.

A gentle aloe cleansing gel and a rose geranium soothing mist began the cleansing and exfoliation process.

WE DELIVER DEPENDABILITY

Naturopathica’s products all boast natural and organic ingredients eschewing harmful chemicals.

A Pear Fig Enzyme Peel followed.

Not long ago, clients would visit doctors for a treatment known as dermaplaning, where an actual scalpel is used to remove dead skin cells. There was always a possibility of injury during the process, Joanne explained.

During the Natural Face Lift, she used a BT micro tool for accelerated exfoliation without any danger. The tool was also used to transmit frequencies that allowed for deeper penetration of the plant stem cell serum.

Who doesn’t love a facial massage?

Each step of the treatment included relaxing massage in the pleasant, fragranced atmosphere of the private spa rooms. Joanne even worked on my tired hands! The micro current tool helps deliver hydration to deeper layers of skin while also toning skin by draining retained fluids.

Ads for the Face Lift Facial promise immediate results. My skin was glowing and super soft, and of course, I was sublimely relaxed.

I have a series of lines resembling parentheses on the sides of my forehead. I credit 20 years of covering government and raising my eyebrows

at politicians’ behavior with their creation. As I write this, it’s six days later, and the lines are still gone, my skin is still soft, and Joanne has inspired me to actually wash my face and use moisturizers at night.

My niece is also a skin care specialist and make-up expert. In the face of my whining about lacking the time to spend on facials and all that washing and moisturizing, she offered a wise, if blunt, opinion: “You have one face for life. People look at your face more than anything. Cleanse, tone, moisturize, treat. Quit half-assing your face!”

If you’re ready to quit half-assing your face, stop by Naturopathica this Saturday, meet Barbara Close, and experience the Natural Face Lift Facial.

Call 631-329-2525 for an appointment.

Eye On Education

By Dr. Dominic Annacone

Teachers Packin’ Heat

schools are more likely to occur among school personnel if the staff involved is allowed to bring guns into the buildings. No need to go home and get your weapon when you’ve targeted your victim on the premises.

Oh, yes, and what about the hundreds of students in those classrooms? We still hear of unjustified corporal punishment being used in certain states when teachers get fed up with student miscreants. Words change to pushes, pushes to punches, and then what? Out comes the revolver

to settle the matter? The idea of a pistol-packing mentor is not my idea of a fitting role model for students.

If some menacing intruder does gain access to a school, proponents of arming teachers are under the assumption they can outdraw, outsmart, and outshoot the invader.

Aren’t these the trained skills of law enforcement specialists and not teachers? It’s a wild assumption that someone trained in education can perform these critical skills including shooting with accuracy.

It’s a very risky gamble given the history that guns used during shootouts frequently result in death and injury to innocent bystanders.

A crash course for teachers on weaponry, stemming assaults, and other law enforcement tactics is pie-in-the-sky thinking that can have tragic results.

I found statistics on gun violence on the Internet under “The Internet Pathology Laboratory for Medical Education, Mercer University School of Medicine, Savannah.”

This information should give one pause before promoting arming people whose major task is teaching children and nurturing their growth and development. And finally one should consider the impact of armed adults roaming the halls, the classrooms, and the school grounds. Is that the kind of school atmosphere you want your kids to be exposed to?

2010 Gun Violence Statistics: USA Number of gun-related deaths: 31,513 By suicide: 19,000+ By homicide: 11,000+ Accidental: 600+ Number of non-fatal gun injuries per year: 200,000.

a Ultr

There have been many heated debates for curbing gun violence in the aftermath of the tragedy at Newtown, Connecticut, but the dumbest response has just surfaced in certain states across the country.

South Dakota just passed a law to allow teachers to carry guns into their classrooms. It’s been reported that Utah, Texas, New Hampshire, and Hawaii do not have any laws prohibiting teachers from bearing arms in schools, although they haven’t passed specific legislation allowing it, as is the case with South Dakota.

Let’s do a little math here on the subject of the proliferation of guns in this country. There are an estimated 300 million guns in civilian hands in this country.

Worldwide, we’re number one.

There are over seven million teachers in the USA. So if we allow teachers to carry guns into their classrooms, we can up the total number of guns circulating in the communities by seven million or more. Quite an accomplishment!

I’m sure the gun industry is licking its chops over that prospect.

Since a good part of my career in education involved teacher training, I shudder to think of the impact of arming teachers on teacher training and preparation. Will we add time on the shooting range to student teaching? If you’re a teacher in a school where packing a pistol is allowed and followed by your colleagues, will you want to be unarmed in that environment? How much weight will sharpshooting skills have on the acquisition of tenure?

Sorry to bring this up, but there are frequently disagreements among staff members. Whenever you get two or more people together anywhere for prolonged periods of time, there are going to be conflicts.

Conflict resolution shouldn’t have the possibility of a gunfight at the O.K. Corral.

And what about the disagreements that occur between teachers and administrators over job assignments, performance evaluations, promotions, etc.?

There have been many instances of irate employees resorting to retaliation with weapons in other supervisor-supervisee relationships, and I don’t have to enumerate the places of business that have experienced those tragedies. It seems to me fatal encounters in

CHOOSING A COLLEGE

by Sergei Klebnikov

Choosing A College: The Process Speeds Up

The SATs have come and gone, and suddenly college visits are right around the corner. I survived the second round of SAT scores with a similar total score, which luckily slightly improved my super score.

After barely escaping a heated beginning of the second semester, it seems as if anything except college

visits would make for an ideal spring break.

After taking the SATs for the second time, I was looking forward to a small break in the college process (which was pretty much nonexistent). But soon after the second round of SATs, my school’s traditional February Junior Parents

Weekend was looming. For boarding school students who enjoy almost complete independence during the school year, seeing your parents and talking about colleges is not an exciting prospect. Basically, everyone at school gets an extra day off except for the miserable juniors, who are visited by their parents and forced to sit through a long and comprehensive morning of college presentations.

The weekend started off with a Friday morning meeting for all the juniors, where the College Office Handbook (a comprehensive guide to surviving the college process, made by our generous college

counselors) was handed out, and we were prepared for the Saturday morning presentation.

The next morning, after all the students and parents had arrived at the theater, the college counselors introduced Sean Abbot, the assistant vice president for undergraduate admissions at NYU. Mr. Abbot gave a lengthy but helpful presentation on key points of getting into college, followed by another presentation from our two college counselors.

The long morning of presentations successfully briefed all of the parents and students about everything, and provided everyone with set instructions on how to go through each stage of the college process.

After the morning presentation, my family and I – complete with my little brother and the dog crowding me in the backseat – headed out towards Boston for my first real college visit. My parents had suggested that we go see a college or two while they were in the area, so we headed out towards Boston College, to meet a cousin of mine who had agreed to show us around.

We walked around the campus for over an hour, and I got a pretty good sense of the college even though my mother asked most of the questions.

You would think that my parents were the ones going to college . . .

The weather was bad, so the campus looked a bit dreary with all of the snow and gray sky. The school and its surrounding area were very busy and filled with students. One thing I was happy to notice was that the city of Boston was easily accessible from the campus, so that students weren’t stuck in the middle of nowhere. After living in New York City all of my life, I realized how important it is to me that I go to a college in or near a decently sized city.

The school had both old, traditional buildings as well as several new construction projects underway. Walking through the suburban campus, I was surprised to hear that the school was strongly affiliated with the Catholic Church.

We passed through the library, the dining hall, and we even went through the underground regions of the huge stadium. Before I knew it we had seen the whole campus.

Overall, it was a good school to see first, and it gave me a good sense of what a college actually looks like and how it functions.

After visiting my first college, I realized that I hadn’t gone through the whole process of which colleges I want to see and why. As spring break loomed closer, I soon began to narrow down prospective colleges that I wanted to go see.

Next time, I’ll talk about how I chose which colleges I wanted to see, and my impressions of them.

RICK’S SPACE I Wuz Robbed

It was late Tuesday when the puff of black smoke wafted into the evening air.

No, it wasn’t from a hash pipe.

It was a signal from the College of Cardinals that a new pope had yet to be crowned.

Being Catholic, I knew a certain amount of infighting was taking place as the various factions jockeyed for position inside the sacred halls of the Vatican, especially on the cafeteria line and by the dessert tray.

The following day white smoke rose as the crowd erupted with cheers.

Habemus Papam! We have a new pope!

I readied my traditional garb. The navy blue pants with the gold stripe down the side. The light blue shirt with the word “Assisi” stitched onto the pocket. The blue knit tie. It was the outfit I wore every day to St. Francis Assisi for many years – during my tenure I left an indelible mark on the church, the school and the religion. Even though I haven’t attended church in 40 years, my accomplishments speak for themselves.

I’m like the Babe Ruth of Catholi-

cism. Even though the The Babe retired from baseball decades ago, his name is still prominent in the record books – he is still considered the greatest slugger in the history of baseball.

I’m like the Tom Brady of Catholicism. Brady set a record, which doubtless will never be broken: he impregnated two supermodels in a single year. That man is like a saint, a god to me.

The halls of St. Francis of Assisi still echo with tales of my achievements, and that legacy branded me as a serious contender: Most successful spitballs thrown during High Mass: 271.

These weren’t just aimless pieces of moistened paper hurled harmlessly into the air — these tiny, spongy projectiles landed in the hair of Father Gary, sticking as if attached by Velcro. But herein was the true art, the beauty of my achievement: each spitball was dipped in blue ink, so the specs accentuated Father Gary’s white hair. Even better, Father Gary would go back to the rectory and see he had been made a fool of, and he

spent the rest of his career vowing to find the lad responsible for his humiliation. Toward that end he’d repeatedly whip his head around during mass hoping to find the tosser of the offending projectiles.

He never did and ended up being transferred to some small island in the North Pacific, his spirit broken, convinced the devil was behind the whole thing.

Fastest Completion of the Stations of The Cross: two minutes, 41 seconds.

This was like running a four-minute mile, because we were required to say the entire rosary at each station before moving to the next. I mastered the art of Steno-praying, wherein I used “shorthand” to say my prayers.

For example, instead of the whole “Our Father Who Art In Heaven” thing I’d say “Father, whatever” and “Hail Mary, amen.”

Most Dollar Bills Extracted From Poor Box: 56.

Many of the kids tried to get money out of the poor box, but only I succeeded. My trick: tweezers. I used the money to buy baseball cards. “But that’s supposed to be for poor people,” one of the girls in my class said to me. Exactly – I was poor: I only had about 4000 baseball cards. I was in need indeed.

Most Impure Thoughts in One Minute: 246.

This was the time someone brought in a Look Magazine with revealing pictures of Gina Lollobrigida, and all sorts of nasty stuff filled my

IN THE NEWS

head. I shattered the mark of 231 set

by Louis Gianelli when he saw the picture of Marilyn Monroe standing over the subway grate.

I was also a legend in my own underwear because I would light candles without paying any money. Since all kids are by nature pyromaniacs, I was the envy of the entire class because I would brazenly go up to the candle rack, kneel and say a prayer, put a slug in the coin box, and light a bunch of candles, my face aglow, basking in the smoke I had created. The nuns would be the ones fuming, though, because deep down they knew it was me putting the slugs in the box. The trouble was they could never prove it, because they didn’t have the keys to open the coin box. This was because just as all kids were pyromaniacs, all nuns were kleptomaniacs.

Given this impressive list of achievements, I thought it was inevitable I would be named the new pontiff. I even had some names picked out: Pope Pope Of Greenwich Village, Pope Ricky Forcucci.com, Pope Flava Flav the 553rd, Pope The Village People, and my first choice, Pope Iced Hazelnut Macchiato The First And Third.

Alas, some guy from Argentina won. No doubt the election was fixed with dangling chads and the like.

I’m just going to continue doing the work of the Lord – playing rotisserie baseball, napping, and attending the Gina Lollobrigida film retrospectives until next time.

My record speaks for itself.

EDITORIAL

Say No To Spot Zoning The fact that the Cyril’s Fish House matter even came before the East Hampton Town Board is proof positive of the deterioration of the planning process in East Hampton and the proliferation of the pro-development, anti-environment mindset that has poisoned the town under the current administration.

On one hand, Cyril’s is somewhat of a summer tradition hereabouts, and the popular nightspot provides jobs and pays taxes. It’s probably safe to assume the proprietors have made out pretty well considering the throngs of partyers that flock there in season.

If truth be told though, Cyril’s, according to planning department documents, has thumbed its nose at the town by expanding illegally over the years. It’s probably safe to assume Cyril’s went to the planning department with a half-baked plan to come into compliance only because the code violations are mounting and if convictions follow, hefty fines will be levied.

The owner of two single and separate parcels on Montauk Highway, Michael Dioguardi, has asked the town board to downzone the land from a residential designation to the Neighborhood Business commercial designation. One of the lots is vacant and the second houses Cyril’s.

The planning board deadlocked on whether to allow the maneuver, and that fact in itself is outrageous. How three board members could possibly justify what appears to be blatant spot zoning is an outrageous abdication of their responsibilities. In fact, now that the Suffolk County Planning Commission has said as much, the possibility that the town could be sued if it is stupid enough to allow this application to proceed looms.

Which brings us to the town board, which is making the decision in the wake of the deadlocked planning board vote.

Honestly, we are hard pressed to think of a single town board member in the past 25 years who would even consider casting an affirmative vote on this matter.

But under the Republican Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson and his cohort, Council-

Independent VOICES

Connect The Dots Dear Editor, Another Sag Harbor Board of Education member, Mr. Gregg Schiavoni, resigned last week, the second in less than a year.

The Sag Harbor Express (“School Board Blasted,” 7 March 2013) cites Mr. Schiavoni’s reasons for resigning: “personal agendas are bleeding into the board’s business, topics that should be discussed in public are discussed in closed executive

sessions and too many discussions behind closed doors focus on blaming previous employees instead of moving forward.” In Mr. Schiavoni’s words, . . . “it is a ship that cannot be righted.”

In 2012, BOE trustee Walter Wilcoxen resigned, Superintendent Dr. John Gratto resigned and Business Manager Janet Verneuille resigned. For those who never attended BOE meetings, Dr. Gratto and Mrs. Verneuille made the District run more efficiently with an eye toward improving academics while cutting wasteful spending.

It doesn’t take a Sherlock Holmes to connect the dots. Something is wrong in the District if two central administrators

woman Theresa Quigley, environmental concerns seem of little consequence, and a prodevelopment mindset, no matter how damaging it is to the future of this town, pervades their every move. Their appointments to the planning and zoning board too often don’t even seem to perceive what they are charged with doing, and exhibit a disturbing lack of understanding about the town code. Frankly, we suspect too many people in the service of the town have an agenda that is contrary to what is best for the populace.

We trust Councilman Dominic Stanzione will join with the Democrats and block this application from approval should Wilkinson and Quigley champion the down zone.

As for Cyril’s, it needs to comply with the town code, not flaunt its past history of doing whatever the proprietor feels like doing. It’s a pre-existing, non conforming establishment – only legal in the confines of the original footprint that was in place when the nightspot opened way back when.

As for the local GOP, it is left reeling from the negative impact of the present administration, which remarkably has become one of the most unpopular in the history of the town after being swept into office by a landslide three short years ago.

Many locals – and count us among them – worry about the damage that can be done to this town before the current administration mercifully comes to an end. For most folks, it’s the sooner the better.

Jay To Run For Legislature Again Speaking of the East Hampton GOP, the sorry performance of the incumbent party and the resulting disgust among the populace likely figured in Jay Schneiderman’s decision not to run for East Hampton Town Supervisor. That’s good news for the East End, because Jay is probably a shoo-in to gain reelection in the county legislature, where he has proven himself to be a valuable and effective member. The East End is perfectly positioned to benefit from Schneiderman’s alliance with County Executive Steve Bellone, and that’s good news for all concerned. and two BOE members suddenly resign.

Parents of students in the District and taxpayers should start attending meetings and demand answers. What else is going on in these executive sessions?

ELENA LORETO

Hysterical Hype To the Editor, I don’t expect much in the way of accuracy from the Star or the Press, and that was pretty much the case. But Kitty Merrill usually gets it pretty straight.

Not this time, though. She pretty much dismisses those who thought the two

half acres next to Cyril’s might be used to help alleviate the parking and traffic problems, while giving undue credence to some of the hysterical hype thrown up by the opponents.

We were treated to a steady parade of doomsday scenarios, from seven to eight feet rises in sea level, to the destruction of all nearby wetlands and wildlife, and a mish-mash of global warming hyperbole.

Independent VOICES

By Karen Fredericks

James Weldon It’s delightful that they chose a non-European. I wonder if he’ll be able to be as reformist as he’d like to be. He’s a bit of a maverick. He feels it’s the church’s job to serve the people rather than thinking the people should serve the church. How refreshing.

Chris Bee I think it’s great that he’s from Latin America.

It’s time to give the rest of the world a chance.

There aren’t just Catholics in Europe, they’re all over the world. So it’s time for other cultures and other countries to have their voices and their point of view heard.

Beverly Davies He sounds a bit reactionary. Very conservative.

And he’s a little older than I think is suitable for such a taxing job. I think it’s great that he’s from Latin America because the population of Latin American Catholics is growing. That’s not so for Europeans.

Isn’t It Ironic

Mike Stone I don’t think day to day my life will change due to anything the Pope does. I think it’s like someone being reelected. But it’s not as important. He won’t change constitutional laws or write amendments. I haven’t given any thought to this Pope or the last one either.

Kitty, the only way these two half acres could cause the damage predicted by the over-reaching zealots would be if they came to earth in the form of an asteroid that smashed into the middle of Gardiners Bay. End-of-the-world scenarios do not make for rational discussion. Just for the record, I was there the whole time. I don’t even have cable TV. REG CORNELIA Editor’s Note: Merrill’s story gave equal space to speakers from both sides of the issue.

Dear Rick, It was interesting to read that Bill Clinton was being honored at a ceremony by the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation as the first former president in history to receive the Lincoln Leadership Prize for his lifetime of service. It is ironic that it requires a Democratic President to be honored as fulfilling the legacy of the great American Republican president, Abraham Lincoln.

“We are delighted to present this year’s Lincoln Leadership Prize to former President Bill Clinton, whose successful presidency and stature as an international statesman truly exemplify President Lincoln’s conscience, spirit and leadership,” said Wayne W. Whalen, chairman of the Board of Directors of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library Foundation. “His lifetime commitment to public service defines the very characteristics of President Lincoln’s legacy as one of the great leaders

of evils, it will be engulfed in a sea of fire.” The North Korean National Defense Commission stated, “In the new phase of our century-long struggle against the United States, we do not hide the fact that various satellites, long-range missiles that we will continue to launch and high-level nuclear tests we will conduct will target our sworn enemy, the United States.”

North Korean intransigence on the discontinuation of its nuclear weapons and missile development programs has fostered the current volatile situation with the United States. It has conducted three nuclear weapons tests and long-range missile tests in recent years. The missiles could possibly reach Hawaii, Alaska and the West Coast of the U.S. We need to ensure our early warning detection systems can shoot down their missiles and we need to review our contingency plans targeting their missile and nuclear sites. We need adequate deterrent forces in the region, including a robust South Korean military. We might want to consider encouraging Japan, an ally, to enlarge and strengthen its military capabilities.

graders took on the role of apprentice, training under “master” artisans for their Guild Projects, working with professional East End artists in stained glass, ceramics, gilding, and mosaics. The Masters were Sue Lichtenstein, stained glass; Mary Jaffe, ceramics; Jen Cross, Chair of Visual Arts, taught gilding and David Slater, mosaics.

Organized by the Paleontological Research Institution (PRI), the Mastodon Project is an example of “citizen science,” a rapidly growing phenomenon in which amateur researchers participate in scientific studies.

Ross’s citizen scientists sorted through samples to find shells, bones, hair, pieces of plants, and rocks. Everything the students handled was at least 9000 years old.

Leg Of Lamb There will be a bake sale from 9:30 to 11:30 AM followed by an Easter Luncheon featuring of leg of lamb at the Bridgehampton Nutrition Center on March 28 at noon. Bring your favorite bonnet or fedora for the on site Easter Parade. There will door prizes. For reservations, call 631-537-3027. The center is located at 585 Sag Harbor Turnpike.

Alcohol-Free Dance Spring is coming to the Hamptons with a new energy this year and there’s a new event this April to celebrate the upcoming season in a whole different way.

Hippy Cool Productions, the entertainment company of East End performer and writer Lisa Bonner is offering the alcohol-free dance for adults 18 and over, at the Bridgehampton Community House on April 19 at 8 PM. Local deejay favorite DJ Twilo will provide the music. Proceeds from the event will benefit the HOM Project, an innovative rock opera preformed by East End musicians to be presented at Guild Hall this September.

“This dance is all about having fun,” Bonner said, “and this is the first in a series of get-out-andhave-fun events that Hippy Cool is

working on this year. ‘DANCE’ is just one event, one focusing on an age-old community celebration in an alcohol-free environment. Not all Hippy Cool events will be alcohol free. But this one is.”

Pamela Mizzi, the director of prevention for the Suffolk County Prevention Resource Center, recently presented the findings of the county’s 2010 Youth Development Survey at a February meeting of the Sag Harbor Community Coalition, a Sag Harbor parent group concerned with the prevention of drug and alcohol abuse.

In that presentation, Mizzi revealed that over 50 percent of high school seniors are drinking alcohol monthly county-wide and that 34 percent of the county’s juniors and seniors are binge drinking, i.e., consuming more than five drinks in a row in one sitting.

In that same meeting, Kym Laube, executive director of the Westhampton-based prevention group, HUGS, Inc., explained, “We can’t change what we don’t acknowledge. Nothing will change about substance abuse and about underage drinking unless we begin to talk about it and unless parents are willing to model very different behavior for their kids. Our kids tend to be wonderful mimics and they often do exactly what they see us and our friends doing.”

Rotary To Honor Ryans The East Hampton Rotary Club has named John Ryan, Sr. and John Ryan, Jr. as its 2013 Persons of the Year.

Both Ryans, in addition to being educators, have been involved with water safety for years. “They are dedicated to the safety of children and adults in the town of East Hampton,” according to a release announcing the honor.

John Sr., who has been a lifeguard for approximately 50 years, is a coordinator for the East Hampton Lifeguard Training, a coordinator for the Junior Lifeguard Training and currently heads the education committee for the Volunteer Ocean Rescue Squad.

He is a volunteer with the Ocean Rescue Squad and chair of the Water Safety Committee. He was instrumental in the formation of the East Hampton Hurricanes swim team. A documentary entitled Big Bad John’s Lifeguards for Life was produced recently.

While John Sr. continues to be involved with the lifeguard training programs, he has given some of the responsibilities to John Jr. who is as enthusiastic about water safety programs as his dad.

In addition to the lifeguard training programs, John Jr. started a water safety program for fifth graders. He, too, was instrumental in the formation of the Hurricanes.

The dinner honoring the Ryans will take place on Monday, April 15, at the Harvest in Montauk, with cocktails at 5:30, and the dinner and program at 6 PM. For more information on the dinner, please call 631-238-5257 or 631-324-1755.

One Final Time For The Big East

The Big East Tournament recently concluded in the world’s most electric city, on its most historic stage.

Never again will this group of 16 teams that combined to make the conference the best, and deepest of the past decade, come together to compete for the conference championship. While the newly branded Big East has plenty to be excited about, this is a week that Big East fans will savor forever.

The Big East Tournament has produced some of the greatest and most memorable moments in college basketball history. Older fans will recall Walter Berry’s block on Pearl Washington to give St. John’s

REAL ESTATE

the 1986 tournament title, and little known Seton Hall point guard, Oliver Taylor’s, back-to-back buzzer beaters to help the Pirates win the 1991 tournament.

How about the 2009 quarterfinal game (won by the Orange), in which Syracuse and UConn went six overtimes? Or West Virginia’s only tournament win on a Da’Sean Butler layup to beat Georgetown in 2010? Remember 2011, when UConn became the first school to ever win five conference games in five days to win the tournament title and eventually the national championship?

Unfortunately, this collection of

basketball powerhouses won’t be adding to its lore after this weekend.

Founder and first commissioner Dave Gavitt helped build the basketball-centric conference and put it on the national stage. Under Gavitt’s guidance from 1979 to 1990, six of the nine member schools made an NCAA final four appearance, with all nine making the tournament at least once.

In all, Big East teams have won six NCAA Championships (UConn with three, Villanova, Georgetown, and Syracuse with one each). In 2011, the Big East set the record for the most teams sent to the NCAA tournament by a single conference with 11 out of its 16 teams qualifying.

Of the four founding members, only Syracuse will be leaving. The Orange is off to the ACC to chase football money. As a Villanova alum, I’ll miss the rivalry. Let me rephrase that . . . I’ll miss rooting against Syracuse. Whether your best or worst ‘Cuse memories include

Pearl Washington and Derrick Coleman, or Carmelo Anthony and Andy Rautins, the Orange were a cog in the conference that cannot be replaced.

Syracuse will be followed out the door by Pittsburgh, Notre Dame, and Louisville. These schools helped the Big East establish itself as the premier college basketball conference. But the inclusion of Notre Dame as a non-football member in 1995 and Louisville, among others in 2003, assisted with the eventual demise of the conference. The unusual structure of the Big East, with the football and non-football schools, led to its instability and ultimately greed led to its demise.

As we addressed in this column recently, the new Big East (temporarily the Catholic 7) will be rebuilding the brand and attempting to re-establish itself on the college hoops scene. It will take time for rivalries and memories to be built, and it’s hard to believe a Butler-Xavier matchup will rock the Garden like Syracuse-Pittsburgh did.

But this week should encapsulate everything that’s been thrilling about the Big East over the last 30 plus years. There’s an argument to be made for six or seven teams to win the entire thing, with no clear front runner. Will it be Louisville, Pitt, Syracuse or Georgetown or will a dark horse like Villanova pull an upset?

Either way, the depth, battles, rivalries, and intensity that Big East fans have come to expect will be there . . . for one final week.

Coast Guard Auxiliary News

By Vincent Pica

Commodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard

Gentlemen (And Ladies), Start Your Engines!

Back in the fall, we talked about how to get the boat ready for a long, cold, and dank winter. Time and tide is now on our side. Most bay constables allow moorings back in the water as of April1 – and the weather will turn our way too. So, before you start your engines, get ready the boat.

Getting Started As with any project, starting at the beginning is the best place to start and for “commissioning,” i.e., getting the boat ready for service, the beginning is the front of the boat. For those that trailer their boats, the front of the boat is the trailer. Who wants to go flying down Rt 27 and see their boat doing somersaults along the side of the road? How do you prevent that? Well, start with the strap that comes out of the winch. Connected to the bow eye, it is the first line of defense. Pay out a few feet and make sure there aren’t any frayed or torn segments. If there are, you will need to cut out that entire segment and re-attach the strap. If you aren’t sure how, and you need to be since this strap is the first line of defense, get help from a competent mechanic or dock master.

While you’re at it, why not spray the winch and all the moving parts with some penetrating oil? Pay out the entire strap if need be and recoil it up so that you are sure you get a good covering of the moving parts with penetrating oil. Take a walk around the boat and be sure the binding straps are all equally in good shape. If not, replace them.

As to the boat itself now, open the anchor locker and flake out the anchor rode (the line and chain attaching the anchor to the “eye” in the bottom of your anchor locker/

www.indyeastend.com

your boat) and lay the anchor “on the hard.”

Again, check the shackles for excessive wear as well as the rode itself. Replace or repair, as needed.

No sense having the boat float away one day because the anchor rode wore through or a shackle pin gave out.

Be sure that the navigation lights (red and green) are working.

If not, take the bulb with you to the marine hardware store and replace it – plus spares. Gas is more expensive than a few extra bulbs.

Your storage area(s) might be forward, so open them up and ensure that PFDs, tools, etc., etc., etc. are all in good condition. Check that there is no standing water in the compartment. If so, the “limber holes” are clogged and the water can’t get to the bilge to be pumped overboard. Every ounce of weight that wasn’t on the boat when the boat was manufactured changes its centers of buoyancy and gravity. In heavy seas, that just might matter a whole lot.

Next are the cockpit and the electronics. Disconnect them, spray them with some “white grease,” reconnect and test the gear. If a connector is corroded, replace it.

This all will keep salt in the air from penetrating your electronics.

If you haven’t checked the PFDs yet, do it now. Check your whistle, your horn, your flares – any and all safety equipment.

Don’t forget your fire extinguisher(s). If it isn’t “in the green,” chuck it. Also, gently shake it side to side, head over end. If you hear a “thunk,” the dry chemical has solidified. It is now a good door-stopper but not much else. You should hear a low “shhh” sound as the suppressant moves back and forth.

Check the fuel tank. Is the “sender wire” (wire that runs from the top of the tank (usually) to the fuel gauge) in good condition? How about the filter? And check the fuel lines, too. Weak or cracked hoses must be replaced, along with rusted hose clamps.

How are the battery and the clamps that attach to the posts?

Just like a car, all this has to be in good condition.

The engine is the most obvious component to ready for service.

Change the oil – all the oil – including the oil down in the foot of the engine. You’ll need a large straight-slot screwdriver for the two screws (high and low) that have to be backed out, a bucket and a quart

March 20, 2013

of oil. Find all the grease fittings and gently pump new grease in until it comes out somewhere else. Don’t forget the steering cable fitting. Be sure that the oil dipstick is properly seated.

BTW, if you do have a trailer, check the tires and lube the bearings.

As with the engine grease, pump it in gently. Who wants to push out a seal?

Reset the spark plug(s) in the engine before you put the cover back on – unless you are going to work on the prop. Some old models might start up when you turn the prop – and that will definitely ruin your Saturday.

Once ready to start the boat, be sure it is in water! You need the coolant. It will smoke at first from the fogging oil you laid in the fall, but that will quickly pass.

OK, there are surely more things to do but you are well on your way to heading out to the high seas – or at least our bays and creeks.

BTW, if you are interested in being part of USCG Forces, email me at JoinUSCGAux@aol.com or go directly to the D1SR Human Resources department, which is in charge of new members matters, at DSO-HR and we will help you “get in this thing . . .”
