TIGER WOODS IS GIVING SEX ADDICTION A BAD NAME

Did you see Tiger Woods’ performance early in the Masters?

At times he looked like my Uncle Louie did when he dragged the whole family to the Pitch and Putt place on Bay Parkway and Cropsey Avenue in Brooklyn, saying we had to learn golf because it was “America’s Game.”

Tiger’s demise all started because of Tiger’s sex addiction.

Tiger made the mistake of trying to keep it a secret until he got caught and his wife tried to split his skull with a nine iron. She missed his head but she beat the crap out of his car instead.

Tiger’s deterioration over the last five years has scared the bejesus out of me and I have decided to turn around and admit my sex addiction and get help before it’s too late.

I’m told that the first thing sex addicts do when they’re caught is to apologize. I’m shrewd, so I’m going to

apologize before I get caught.

First of all, I want to apologize to all my friends and fellow workers at The Independent.

I want to say I’m sorry to Jim Mackin and Rick Murphy and certainly to you, Kitty Merrill.

When I see what’s happened to Tiger Woods’ life because of his sex addiction, I hope it’s not too late for me.

I want to say to you what Tiger said to a stunned nation five years ago: “I’m sorry for my irresponsible and selfish behavior.”

I want to say I’m sorry to my wife, the beautiful Judy Licht.

I also want to say I’m sorry to my Aunt Mary and my Uncle Louie, who are dead but would have died even sooner if they had any idea how many thousands of women I’ve slept with since I was 14 . . . er . . . make that

12. I forgot to include my arithmetic teacher, the wild and wonderful Miss Santini, a teacher who, by today’s standards, was ahead of her time.

Did I say I’m sorry? I want to apologize for hitting on every woman who works at a McDonald’s from Manhattan to Southampton. I know that all I deserved from you was a Sausage & Egg McMuffin and a cup of coffee and not any of the sordid things I have asked you for.

While I’m at it let me apologize to every woman who works at Burger King, Wendy’s, Applebee’s, Taco Bell, Blimpie, Dairy Queen, Dunkin’ Donuts, In-N-Out Burger (be still my heart), Pizza Hut, Subway and White Castle. And, yes, a special apology to the women who work at Starbucks. I know you were under orders to talk to customers about race and racism and I just kept changing the subject.

To that wonderful-looking woman behind the counter at the Starbucks on 38th Street and 7th Avenue in Manhattan, who took my answer to her “race” question the wrong way, the hot coffee burns on my face and neck are healing nicely and I forgive you.

Don’t look at me as a bad person.

Just look at me as your run-of-the mill, hopelessly horny sex addict.

Did I say I’m sorry? Let me say it again and let me take the time to apologize to my “dates” last week: Mary, Cathy, Nancy, Emily, Abigail, Olivia, Hannah, Samantha, Sophia, Elizabeth, Alexis, Grace, Sarah, Natalie, Lauren, Anna, Jessica, Victoria and Julia.

And I’m not forgetting you, Katherine. I hope you had as much fun as I did. Now you know what a

IN THE NEWS

simple “like” by you on my Facebook page can lead to.

Aside to Grace: That is a position that has worked for me thousands of times and I’m sure once you are out of traction you will find it in your heart to forgive me.

While I’m apologizing I guess I should give my apologies to Valerie, Betty, Francine, Joan and Linda for last week’s debacle. I know now that a sixsome should never be attempted without the presence of a licensed chiropractor. And I know that at least two of you were disappointed in my performance. I blame it all on the 12 glasses of wine and the cold weather.

Have I told you all I’m sorry?

It is hard to admit that I need help but I’ve decided to seek therapy for sexually compulsive behavior at the Pine Grove Behavioral Health and Addiction Services Clinic and Storm Window Company in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

I follow in the heels (and every other body part) of David Duchovny, Russell Brand, Lindsay Lohan, Madonna, Michael Douglas, Charlie Sheen, Billy Bob Thornton and, of course, Tiger Woods.

There is nothing like sitting around in group therapy talking about sex addiction.

You’ve got this room full of male and female sex addicts telling all in group therapy, giving you all the details as to how they screwed up and got caught. If you don’t come out cured, you still come out with a great list of available prospects.

I felt I had died and gone to heaven when one of them – the beautiful, delicious, sexy, wild Wendy – got up and described how she is addicted to sex. Now Wendy has this cute face, sweet little pug nose, soft blond hair and the sort of breasts that can best be described as “perky.” And she has this whispery voice . . . er . . . er . . . er . . . I’ve got to get a hold of myself . . . no, that’s not such a good idea, either.

It’s just that they make us all wear such drab, loose clothing here at the clinic and yet Wendy’s breasts are pushing at the fabric of her blouse, shouting to me, “Let me free.”

I have to pause now to cool down, and there’s only thing that works to get my mind off Wendy’s breasts: I must concentrate and try to remember the exact starting line-up of the 1947 Brooklyn Dodgers.

Did I say how sorry I am for my past behavior? Well, let me just close by saying I’m sorry.

The good news is this is my first day in Pine Grove and I just finished a session with my doctor and he had a good idea for something I might do to stop thinking about sex all the time.

He suggested I take up golf.

Happy 45th, Earth Day!

By Emily Toy

On April 22 people across the globe will be celebrating Earth Day. Now in its 45th year, Earth Day marks the anniversary of what many consider the birth of the environmental movement, with millions gearing up to clean streets, parks, beaches, trails, and much more.

“Earth Day 1970 capitalized on the emerging consciousness, channeling the energy of the antiwar protest movement and putting environmental concerns front and center,” according to earthday.org.

The idea came to Earth Day founder Gaylord Nelson, then a U.S. Senator from Wisconsin, after witnessing the effects of the 1969 oil spill in Santa Barbara. Nelson soon after announced the idea for a “national teach-in on the environment.” As a result, on April 22, Americans took to the streets, parks and auditoriums to demonstrate for a healthy, sustainable environment in massive coast-to-coast rallies.

N o w, t h e r e a r e o v e r 5 0 0 0 environmental groups in a record 184 countries reaching to hundreds of millions of people.

Here on the East End, several organizations, both civil and private will be cleaning up the great outdoors.

This weekend, Southampton Town hosts its annual Great East End Clean-Up, a volunteer-based program to remove litter and debris from the town’s roadsides, parks, trails, and beaches. Last year 650 volunteers removed over 30 tons of litter and debris, including 1.3 tons of metal that was sorted for recycling.

On Saturday, in Montauk, the Concerned Citizen of Montauk and friends joins together for a pre-Earth Day clean up of The End. CCOM, in cooperation with Group for the East End, the Montauk School Student Council, and Surfrider Foundation host the event at the Kirk Park parking lot Saturday morning, to show Montauk’s beaches and parks a little TLC. T h e E a s t H a m p t o n Tr a i l s Preservation Society leads the Right of Way trail hike on Saturday morning along a section of the Paumanok Path, tidying it up at the same time.

Seedlings will be planted in honor of Earth Day’s birthday at

ndependent / Courtesy PS.

Patty Sales and Joi Jackson-Perle were among participants cleaning the coast during the annual Shoreline Sweep in East Hampton last Saturday.

Mashomack Preserve on Shelter Island on Saturday morning.

The South Fork Natural History Museum will show its appreciation for Mother Earth with a beach clean up in Noyac Saturday morning.

The 7th Annual Westhampton Beach Earth Day Festival will be held on the Village Green April 26 at 1 PM. WHB Eco Friends will host the Annual Earth Day Festival with music, face painting and crafts. Other organizations slated to participate are the Quogue Wildlife Refuge, Sang Lee Farms, Garden of

Eve, Amy’s Ark Farm, Island Bead & Jewelry and Hampton Coffee Company. All will be offering ideas for recycling, eco-friendly products, garden supplies, and much more.

The festival is free and open to all.

For more information, call 917-9236398.

Last weekend, Dell Cullum, an East Hampton man on a mission to make the town litter-free hosted his secod annual “Shoreline Sweep.”

brains. Scientists found that chronic stress increases the connection between areas of the brain that process the “fight or flight” response while decreasing the connection between the areas of the brain that moderate the response, psychcentral reports.

That means your response to fear can be quicker while your ability to calm down and shut the fight or flight response down is diminished.

These changes may explain why people suffering from chronic stress are prone to mental problems such as anxiety and mood disorders, a release from Berkeley’s news center last year states.

Prolonged stress can provoke any number of emotional and behavioral changes – feelings of anxiety, fear, rage, depression all can feed off each other, often leading to the physical symptoms listed in earlier sections of this series. (Check out Indy’s archives at www.indyeastend.com for Part 1 and 2.) Previously easy going people can become irritable, tearful, and consumed by worry.

They might withdraw, and even sink into a variety of addictive behaviors, which can, over time become a new source of stress, as health and personal relationships suffer.

important point about stress and how we react to it. The fight or flight impulse is triggered by danger or even the perception of threat.

Anxiety disorders and major depression can occur as the coping skills of people under chronic stress erode and their ability to distinguish between real danger and perceived danger becomes impaired. Anxiety, a normal manifestation of stress, can come home to roost, and morph into generalized anxiety, with constant worry -- and even panic attacks -- that continues to feed off itself.

Phobias may be triggered by a certain stress-induced incident.

Major depression, characterized by a palette of symptoms such as change in mood, appetite, sleep and energy levels, can occur.

“Short term stress is not necessarily a bad thing,” Dr. Contantino noted – “It heightens our responses when performance is important.” But when stress is an every day, all day occurrence, he added, “that’s when it tends to work against us mentally and physically.”

Classic stress management strategies – exercise, relaxation, spending quality time with loved ones – help realign perspective, Dr. Contantino reminded. But, when the chronic stress reactions and psychological symptoms persist, it’s time to seek help from a mental health professional.

Airport Laws Vote Tomorrow

By Kitty Merrill

The changes won’t change anything, opponents say. Tomorrow night the town board is expected to pass three of four proposed laws designed to lessen traffic and noise at East Hampton Airport.

Reading a prepared statement last week, airport liaison Councilwoman Kathee Burke-Gonzalez said she’d withdraw a proposal banning helicopters on summer weekends and move forward with initiatives setting curfews and limiting noisy aircraft to one trip per week.

The laws won’t change anything, according to Jonathan Sabin of the East Hampton Airport Association, which represents local users of the airport. Sabin predicts lawsuits and an injunction that will ground the implementation of the measures.

“Nothing will change this summer,” he said. The status quo could remain for an extended period of time, if history repeats. Previous airportrelated legal battles wore on for years.

The only change Sabin sees is a fiscal one. The town will spend millions fighting lawsuits, money that could be used to improve and maintain the airport.

“It’s really disappointing,” Sabin said. In addition to the money the town will “blow” fighting legal challenges, Sabin reiterated an argument raised throughout discussion of the proposals: well-heeled homeowners who purchased properties in East Hampton with the idea that they’d be easily accessible using helicopters may decide to sell, leaving working people who serve them jobless.

Pro-restriction speakers at the public hearing last month poo-pooed the notion as a mere scare tactic, but the town’s own appointed Budget and Finance Committee was unable to reach a consensus on the economic impact of the proposals.

Also looking at the bottom line, Loren Riegelhaupt of the Friends of the East Hampton Airport reacted to Burke-Gonzalez’s statement in a release dated April 7. “Unfortunately, these ‘changes’ don’t change anything at all. The proposal would close off the airport to the vast majority of traffic resulting in a dramatic loss in revenue for the airport and economic activity for our community and will do nothing to mitigate the obvious impact on neighboring communities across the East End,” he said.

Burke-Gonzalez cited the unintended consequence of diverting noisy traffic to Montauk, or neighboring towns as a reason for the ban withdrawal. Sabin believes a regulation permitting just one trip per week for noisy aircraft will

“absolutely” result in extra traffic diverting to airports in Montauk, Southampton, and Westhampton.

But he also raised a point that hadn’t been considered – what about fractional owners? In some cases a handful of people chip in on the purchase of a single chopper and share the aircraft. The “one trip per week” legislation doesn’t address that situation. “They haven’t done their homework,” Sabin said.

Beyond passing the three local laws (that’s set to happen tomorrow night)

the town is also poised to embark on efforts to ensure the airport is selfsustaining, Burke-Gonzalez reported.

Landing fees will see an increase and expiring leases at the airport will be increased to reflect full market value – available property at the site equates to $20 million in assets, according to the councilwoman. She predicted the airport will have a $1.8 million surplus for 2014, once last year’s audit is completed and final figures are tallied.

The passage of the three local laws is just the beginning of the process

towards the goal of making sure “we have a safe, quiet, economically viable, and environmentally-friendly airport,” Burke-Gonzalez said. She’s crafted a plan that includes monitoring the effectiveness of the curfews and landing restrictions, convening an airport management advisory committee, working with the FAA, local congressional delegation and Eastern Region Helicopter Council, and improving technology that tracks traffic and noise.

The proposed laws are just the beginning of, said the councilwoman, “a long-term commitment to achieving – and maintaining – the right balance between airport operations and our community’s quality of life.”

Before he died last November, Tom Twomey, President of East Hampton Library, came up with the idea of a series of events at his beloved institution. On Saturday, the library will launch the new lecture series in his honor.

The series of 12 events runs midApril through mid-September and features a variety of speakers and topics. Titled “The Tom Twomey Series: Conversations With . . . ” the program honors his involvement in planning the lecture series.

“The idea for these programs came from Tom, and this was his last wish for the library,” said Donald L. Hunting, President of the library’s Board of Managers.

“We are so pleased to fulfill his vision and honor the memory of his extraordinary leadership and dedication to the library with the launch of this remarkable new series.”

A launch event on Saturday at 4 PM will feature the dedication of The Tom Twomey Gallery (adjacent to the Lecture Room) and the series of local history books the ardent local history buff bequeathed to the library. It will also serve as the official launch of the last book Twomey edited for the library’s East Hampton Historical Collection series. In addition, the library’s Long Island Collection director, Gina Piastuck, will give a brief talk on recent acquisitions.

A website for the series, www.

TomTwomeySeries.org, contains extensive background information on the speakers, study materials, and more. Library officials hope to make the series an annual feature at the library, as a legacy to Twomey.

The series will comprise 12 late Saturday afternoon programs in the library’s new Baldwin Family Lecture Room. Noted experts will explore an eclectic range of ideas, issues and topics of current interest—everything from health, the environment, local history, and municipal finance to North Korea, the pop songs of World War I, and the future of professional sports.

Each event in the series will begin with a wine reception at 4 PM, followed by the presentation and Q & A from 4:30 to 5:45 PM. Each event will be hosted by a member of the library’s Board of Managers.

On April 25 Linda B. James, M.P.H and a panel of climate specialists present “Meeting Climate Change Challenges: A Coastal Community Perspective.”

Kids And Krupski Restore Bluff Independent / Courtesy Zeldin

On Saturday, Congressman Lee Zeldin attended the annual “Coffee with the Congressman” forum hosted by the Long Island Farm Bureau in Calverton. The focus of the discussion was on finding ways to work together to assist East End farmers who play a major role in the local Long Island economy. Congressman Zeldin is pictured, left, speaking above with Long Island Farm Bureau Administrative Director Rob Carpenter, Long Island Farm Bureau President Karen Rivara, Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine, local Riverhead farmer Phil Schmitt, and others.

The event begins at 11:30 AM – the library is on 330 Court Street.

Members of Riverhead NJROTC and Legislator Al Krupski joined the Suffolk County Parks Department for a bluff restoration project at Indian Island County Park in Riverhead last Friday. Despite cool weather and drizzle, the 15 young men and women from the ROTC unit led by their commander, Pete McCarthy, Lt. Col., USMC (Ret.), planted over 12,000 beach grass plants to stabilize the bluff and prevent erosion.

Legislator Krupski recruited Riverhead NJROTC to help with the bluff project. “It’s amazing what can be accomplished when you have volunteers willing to donate their time to complete this kind of project. The energy these young people brought enabled us to complete the project in a few short hours,” he said.

“The Riverhead NJROTC cadets have a long tradition of supporting their community and enjoy working together as a team in order to make a difference,” said Lt. Col. McCarthy.

“Planting the beach grass at Indian Island Park was a great opportunity for them to immediately see the results of their efforts. These events help them continue to develop as good citizens while understanding the importance of giving back to their community.”

By Rick Murphy

RICK’S SPACE Not That Kind Of Dude I’ve taken to calling male friends “Dude” as in, “I’ll have your money Friday, Dude” or “Thanks for the jump start, Dude.”

To me it implies an innate masculinity, a self-assured selfrealization that a dude is indeed a cool guy, so I like when someone calls me “Dude” in return.

That’s why, when the suggestion came from Karen that we visit a Dude Ranch I was initially receptive.

Being a dude, I’ve discovered, can be a mixed bag, though. Dictionary. com says a dude is “a fellow; a chap.”

That would make me an old chap, and most of those live in England, where even young chaps are called “old chap.”

“A man excessively concerned with his clothes, grooming and manners,” is another definition.

So, I wonder, who else will be going to this Dude Ranch? A bunch of fashionistas? Hairdressers? Clothing

designers? I’m not one of those dudes.

Wikipedia says dude is a slang term that “typically applies to males but can encompass all genders.”

I’m not comfortable with that.

I don’t want any female dudes at this ranch. It will be hard enough dealing with the hairdressers.

It seems the first major utterance of the word occurred in the 1959 movie Rio Bravo – John Wayne’s deputy in the film, played by Dean Martin, was named “Dude.” He was also drunk in every single scene.

Then of course, we had the hit Beatles’ song “Hey Dude.” The name reached its peak in the 1998 film The Big Lebowski featuring Jeff Bridges as “The Dude.” He became a cult hero.

“That dude is a ‘tall drink of water,’” one of Karen’s friends said about her pool guy. “ What does that mean?” I queried.

REAL ESTATE

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

“That he’s hot!” they both replied.

Oh. So the dude is a tall drink of hot water? Shouldn’t he be in a mug as in, “That mug is a hot drink of water?” Could we then put a tea bag in it? “That Dude is a mug of hot tea.”

According to askme.com, though, a “tall drink of water” is usually an “attractive Southern woman” and not a dude at all. That would make a short, overweight woman “a mug.” I’m guessing, or a “shot glass of ugly.”

Doing the extensive research I am noted for, I ascertained after logging many hours, that a dude ranch is a vacation destination where the guests ride horses and do other cowboy-related things.

Karen used to exercise horses at Belmont Park Racetrack when she was a teenager, so I understand why she wants to go to one. Either she wants to renew her acquaintance with all things equine, or she heard from her friends that there are a lot of good looking dudes at the resort, many of whom are both cowboys and tall drinks of water, as opposed to me, who is more the “tall drink of prune juice” type.

The top luxury dude ranch is called The Resort At Paws Up in Montana. “Paws up” reminds of a dog that eats something Karen cooks.

IN THE NEWS

“Ride the land where Lewis and Clark once trod,” the ad says. I rather follow the footsteps of Lewis and Martin - that Martin was a real dude.

You can also “go fly fishing in the legendary Blackfoot River,” which seems a long way to go to me. I can lie on the beach here and the flies land directly on me. I don’t have to fish for them at all.

The ranch has 37,000 acres and inspired the movie A River Runs Through It (that would be the Blackfoot). That Robert Redford dude?” He’s a tall glass of water, I guess, even if he is kind of short.

In the end the trip to Montana was cost-prohibitive, costing hundreds of dollars per day (though I’ve lost that much at Belmont without actually riding a horse).

The truth is, this dude isn’t that kind of dude. I’ve only gone horseback riding once in my life and that didn’t turn out well (more on that in another column). I don’t go camping, at least since I saw Brokeback Mountain (I don’t want my friends who call me dude to also tell me I am a tall drink of water).

Anyways, I don’t see myself going to the bathroom in he woods on those little stools with the plastic bags underneath them.

That’s not what this dude is all about.

EDITORIAL

Where Will They Land?

As we have said many times, NIMBYism isn’t necessarily a bad thing.

Last September nearly 400 people showed up at a forum hosted by the East Hampton Town Board, most of them to rail about the unpleasant helicopter noise that engulfs the East End during the summer season.

No one is saying as much, but the meeting was carefully orchestrated to pack as many fannies as would fit, a necessary prelude to some kind of limitation or outright ban on helicopter traffic the board hopes will stand up in court.

Every other neighboring municipality was on board with East Hampton’s plan to stop taking money from the FAA and seize local control of the airport.

The Southampton, Shelter Island, and Southold Town Boards, and North Haven Village all passed recent resolutions asking East Hampton not to accept new FAA grants, and to address airport noise. Many elected officials attended the meeting, to support the East Hampton Board. But words are cheap.

Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst was at the forum. She criticized the prior administration, which began this process. She urged the board to limit the helicopter traffic, and rightfully so – many of her constituents in Noyac, Sag Harbor, and North Sea have complained about the din.

Why Throne-Holst felt the need to criticize the prior administration, which held a Republican majority, probably has more to do with her future political aspirations than reality, because the current town board has so far done nothing to alleviate the noise.

We’re guessing the East Hampton Town Board expected more of the same at a public hearing last month that would serve as a prelude to enacting airport legislation.

Another huge crowd gathered, but this time many of those who spoke urged caution, and with good reason – the realities of taking on the helicopter industry had set in and so too had the Not-In-My-Back Yarders.

Throne-Holst was one. There is a heliport in Southampton Village. In other words, if East Hampton were to ban helicopter traffic, or severely limit it, the copters would find their way to another landing spot – right in the middle of Southampton and

Independent VOICES

Cumbersome Conditions Dear Editor, RE: For The Kids?

Not! The New York State budget that was passed that links teacher evaluations to corporate created standardized tests should promote a thoughtful discussion of how teachers are presently evaluated in

New York State and how they will be under new legislation. Some facts were omitted in The Independent editorial.

The present system of evaluating teachers was developed with the help and approval of the New York State Education Department (NYSED) as well as New York State United Teachers (NYSUT). Under the gun to develop a plan or lose state funding, districts put in place plans that failed to anticipate the time demands the process would place on administrators and teachers. Districts adopted boilerplate language and purchased software to

further west, at Gabreski Airport as well. As loud as the din is from copters passing over land, it pales in comparison to the noise made by incoming and outgoing crafts.

That could make the East Hampton Airport, in the eyes of Southampton, the lesser of two evils. In her zeal to bash the previous East Hampton Town Board and her zeal to praise the current Democratic-controlled town board the Southampton supervisor probably didn’t think the whole scenario through.

Folks in Montauk also voiced concern – there is a small airport there, and it is private, meaning we could see the same amount of aircraft flying over us next summer, except they would land further east, and presumably annoy even more residents.

Yes, every municipality around has given East Hampton a vote of approval – which means very little. When the litigation begins, we’re quite certain none will step forward and offer to share the burden of defending East Hampton’s position.

Then of course, there is the other elephant in the room – the cost of maintaining the airport without FAA funds. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure out if you severely limit traffic at the airport, and stop taking millions of dollars of federal money, there is no logical way for the facility to generate enough revenue to approach the breakeven point. One thing is for sure -- none of our neighbors posturing for a helicopter ban have offered to help out financially for the joy of peaceful and quiet skies.

As the board prepares to act (see story elsewhere), one thing is evident: after all the talk, and all the studying, whatever the board does will be challenged in court, and the legislation will be stalled during what promises to be a lengthy legal process.

In other words, the copters, and their noise, will be with us this summer and beyond.

For all of the public outcry, for all the staged meetings catering to anti-airport voices, for all the countless hours devoted to the topic — this town board loves to talk – one thing is clear: East Hampton is in this alone, and it is East Hampton property owners on the hook for the bills.

Other municipalities have said their piece: unless they are willing to actively join the fight it’s time to step away and let the locals decide the fate of their own airport.

streamline the process. The Independent editorial correctly points out that the present system has failed.

However the new legislation imposes even more complex and cumbersome conditions on the development of the evaluation process. There is no reason to expect the new system will be successful.

Instead, it will turn every classroom into a test-prep classroom as teachers devote more and more time to a test developed by a corporation rather than educators.

Practices in education should be based on empirical data. No empirical data suggests

that a test designed to evaluate a student is effective in evaluating a teacher. Despite this, student test scores will comprise 50 percent of a score that will determine the effectiveness of a teacher.

The editorial suggests that more state aid will be available to districts that agree to tighter evaluation guidelines. Our association and the administration have worked collaboratively to implement more realistic evaluation guidelines and teacher scores are not inflated. We will continue to do so in the future with an eye to assuring Continued on Page 18.

fairness and accuracy in the process.

The same editorial paints a picture of school board members as a befuddled bunch, somehow disconnected from contract negotiations. In fact school boards are well informed by the New York State School Boards Association. Furthermore, contracts are reviewed, if not negotiated, by attorneys that represent the interests of the school district.

Parents who decide it is not in their children’s best interests to take commercially prepared state tests are part of an “Opt-Out” movement. This movement did not begin as a union issue but with parental concerns about the pressure of high stakes testing on children in grades 3-8. Parents are also rightly concerned with class room time devoted to test taking and preparation that leaves less time to focus on authentic learning. Parents, and teachers, believe that the focus should be on teaching critical thinking skills rather than drilling for commercially prepared state standardized test that often are not properly aligned to any curriculum. Parents realize that the present system of repeated testing is more likely to damage a child’s self-esteem and confidence and is only preparing them for a world of frustration and anxiety.

“All the stake holders in education deserve transparency. They should know what material will be covered on tests, have confidence that tests are age appropriate and be able to use the results to improve learning. Commercially prepared state standardized tests fail on these measures.

Teachers are not allowed to discuss the test content with parents or even colleagues.”(NYSUT) Taxpayers should be concerned with misguided funding policies, unfunded mandates, and a state education

department that has become more and more dependent on corporations to develop tests that drive up the cost of education and that detract from the real needs of our school community.

Acknowledging the wisdom of the Board of Education of the East Hampton Union Free School District Philosophy Statement, the members of the East Hampton Teachers’ Association continue to “ . . . recognize their responsibility to help meet the physical, intellectual and emotional needs of children; particularly the needs to inquire, learn, think, and create; to establish aesthetic, moral and ethical values; and to relate satisfactorily to others in social situations involving family, work, government and recreation.”

Not Enough Dear Editor, There is a national aversion to dealing with the problems of mobile home parks.

This business plan is a government protected cash cow. It is unique in its development and it needs unique solutions.

Unfortunately it doesn’t adversely affect those in power. There are a few non-profits that work toward a more stable and sustainable solution together with the residents: Resident owner communities (ROC) and CFED under certain circumstances but not nearly enough considering the immensity of the problem.

A fishing charter, a hunting trip and shooting and fishing gear will be raffled too! And delicious food and beverages will be served all day long!

I’ll be there manning the Montauk Surfcaster’s Association booth. We’ll have literature and offer information about joining us in preserving beach access and protecting our fisheries. I’ll have gear on hand for sale to help new comers and “sharpies” to catch more fish. A percentage of all proceeds earned on items sold, will be donated to organizations fighting for beach access and conservation.

I want to thank the East Hampton Sportsmen’s Alliance for sponsoring this fun and educational family oriented event.

If we don’t make the effort to perpetuate these local traditions, we risk losing them altogether. Hope to see you there! Thanks.

Create Your Own Critter Animals have adapted to their habitat over millions of years. This Sunday at the South Fork Natural History Museum, kids ages six to 10 can join in for a “mixing it up” workshop where they will mix up animals and their habitats using some imagination and newly gained knowledge to form an entirely new creature, able to survive and thrive in its challenging new environment.

Blind Denial Dear Independent, I got a kick out of Zack Pal’s on point letter relating to those of Misters Benjamin and Moskowitz and their embarrassing pedestrian views of American values so popular in our United States of Armpit. Perhaps they would like our aware New York State to emulate the constipated thinking of Florida and now, Wisconsin, in banning the phrase, “Climate Change”.

It will be interesting to see if this blind denial of the obvious will keep Southern Florida from transforming into a wetlands before disappearing into the ocean.

It is comforting to know that here in the Hamptons there are progressive (small “p”) thinkers such as Mr. Zizelis and Mr. Pal separating us from the regressive thinking of our contrary fellow citizens.

For the second year Springs School’s PTA is holding its most successful fundraiser called the Springs Mystery Art Sale at Ashawagh Hall from April 29 to May 2.

The Mystery Art Sale is modeled after the world famous event at the Royal College of Art in London where students and professional artists and designers such as Christo, Damien Hirst, and Manolo Blahnik create postcard-sized artworks to be exhibited and sold anonymously for the same small price tag.

Organizers are looking for artists who would be willing to donate one to four 5x7 pieces of work in any medium (two or three dimensional), including photographs, to be exhibited alongside artwork by the students. The pieces will be displayed anonymously and sold for $20 each throughout the week, culminating in a reception Saturday, May 2, from 2 to 5 PM. Some of the artworks may be selected for a silent or live auction Saturday at 3 PM. The mystery will be revealed at the end of the exhibition when art collectors will discover whether they have invested in a valuable piece of art from a well known artist (or celebrity) or a potential masterpiece from a student artist.

All proceeds will help fund Springs School arts programs, including the Visiting Artist Program, which brings professional artists into the school to teach workshops from kindergarten to eighth grade, interacting directly with the children.

Artists are invited to email their mailing addresses to ssvartists@gmail.com to receive a packet with the 5x7 paper and other instructions. Packets can also be picked up at The Golden Eagle on Newtown Lane in East Hampton.

For more info call 631-4887770 or email: ssvartists@ gmail.com Hampton Daze 2x3 filler:Layout 1 4/13/15 11:24 AM Page 1

Buses Building Business Earlier this month marked the rollout of expanded Sunday bus services and the extension of evening hours on select Suffolk County Transit routes, according to a press release from Legislator Jay Schneiderman.

On April 1, the county raised bus fares by 25 cents in order to fund expanded services. The county will use the increase in fare revenue to provide a combination of additional Sunday bus routes and later evening service. The S92 bus fare remained the same as its rate was already 25 cents higher as part of a pilot program initiated by Schneiderman. The S92 bus, which serves the county as the second largest route by ridership, added an additional southbound run, which now leaves the Orient Point Ferry Dock at 6:40 PM and arrives in East Hampton at 9:15 PM. Year-round Sunday bus service is now being provided on the S45 and S61 bus routes.

“These two routes have the heaviest Monday through Sunday ridership of all Suffolk County Transit routes which do not currently have Sunday service,” according to the press release.

Evening service will now be provided as S58 as well as the S92 bus routes. The S58 is an important east-west corridor and serves many large destinations such as the Riverhead County Center, Smith Haven Mall, Suffolk County Community College, Huntington Square Mall and transfer points with many connections to other SCT bus routes.

The Whalers Carrying Heavy Lumber

By Rick Murphy

One thing is evident this season: the Pierson/Bridgehampton Whalers bring heavy lumber to their baseball games.

Consider last week: the locals

rocked Stony Brook 13-2 on April 7, beat the Bears again 10-0 last Wednesday, then completed the hat trick by besting Stony Brook again Thursday, also by a 13-2 margin.

The three wins gave Pierson a 5-1 mark in League IX, one game behind undefeated Port Jefferson.

Johnny Chislon, James Sherry and Theo Gray picked up mound wins, with Gray hurling a nifty two-hit

shutout, striking out eight in the process. Charles Caravan lashed six hits in the three games. Sherry went 3-5 on Wednesday.

Southold lost its first game of the season but nevertheless took a three game series from Smithtown Christian.

The Settlers won the opener last Wednesday on the road 9-6 behind the pitching of Alex Poliwoda and the hitting of Dylan Clausen and Noah Mina.

At home the next day though, Jimmy Seviour, the Smithtown Christian ace, stymied the locals, hurling a two-hit gem and winning 2-1. Southold bounced back to take the second game of a doubleheader 8-2. The Settlers are tied with Pierson for second place.

Westhampton Beach is off to another strong start in League VI, taking the final two games of a three game set against Sayville.

The wins moved the Hurricanes into second place, one game behind unbeaten Comsewogue.

Last Wednesday Michael Pesce came in to douse a fire in the bottom of the seventh and save a win for Zack Downs, 4-3. The following day the Hurricanes prevailed by an 8-3 margin.

Nick Arpino earned the win and Pesce contributed a key two-run double.

Mattituck, looking to defend its LI Class B Championship, is 6-0 in League VII after besting Southampton at home Friday, 6-2 and pounding the Mariners 11-0 in Southampton Wednesday.

Southampton dropped to 2-4; Hampton Bays is 0-6.

Riverhead, traveling to Centereach Saturday, needed a win badly. The Blue Waves, only 1-3 on the young season, were already four games behind undefeated Half Hollow Hills West in the League IV standings.

Nick Herzog, on the mound, delivered. He hurled a one hitter and struck out eight and the locals came home with a 10-1 victory.

Cody Weiss went 4-4 at the plate.

New Booster Club In East Hampton

In the weeks that followed the East Hampton Athletic Forum, held in January of this year, a group of parents who had discussed wanting to provide increased support for athletic programs in East Hampton, asked to meet with Athletic Director Joe Vasile-Cozzo to discuss the intricacies of forming a Booster Club.

At this meeting, AD Joe Vas, explained how booster clubs are formed and provided examples of mission statements, by-laws, and the organizational structure of other successful booster clubs. A number of the parents that attended the first meeting decided that they wanted to get to work on forming a booster

club in East Hampton and attended a second meeting on March 4.

The groups’ first order of business was to establish a board of directors whose goals would include developing a mission statement and by-laws, establishing an address and taxpayer ID number, and forming a 501 c (3) (a tax exempt, non-profit organizational status). This initial group of officers includes the following individuals: President - Tom Cooper - East Hampton Vice President - Mike Rogers East Hampton/Amagansett Secretar y - Carrie Cullen Montauk Treasurer - Liz Genovesi - East

Hampton Officer - Dave Rutkowski Montauk A press release from the club said, “We would like to encourage any and all individuals interested in becoming involved in this emerging organization, either as an officer, (or for those not able to commit as much time/effort) as a committee member, to attend our next meeting on Thursday, April 23 at 7 PM in the East Hampton High School Library.

We are particularly interested in rounding out this board with parents of children in the feeder districts not currently represented (i.e. Springs and/or Wainscott). Once we have a better handle on

obtaining the legal, financial, and organizational structure of the booster club we will work to build membership and enlist community support. This support for East Hampton sports will help advance our goals and mission . . .”

The mission of the East Hampton Athletic Booster Club (Bonac Booster Club) is to enhance and expand the athletic programs for children attending East Hampton High School. The Booster Club will seek to provide financial support to the athletic programs in the form of accessory equipment, facility upgrades and other forms as deemed needed by student-athletes and coaches.

“Our aim is to assist in making the student-athlete experience both positive and highly competitive. The Booster Club seeks to encourage student participation in youth sports by promoting positive interaction between youth and high school athletics. We will help facilitate better integration of all programs, as well as to promote enthusiasm and support among students, parents and the entire East Hampton community for all athletic programs.

“We look forward to working with the community to further support our children in their athletic endeavors,” the release stated.
