Guided To Wild Things Being Wild
By Kitty Merrill
If there were an organization comprised of people who derive delight, and a measure of spiritual sustenance, from the beauty -- and quirks -- of nature, Dell Cullum would be its poster child. A wildlife photographer and humane animal trapper, Cullum has been behind the lens since he first joined the photography club in Amagansett grade school. Photography “struck a chord with me,” he recalled. And for the circle of Facebook friends and visitors to his ImaginationNature website who get to see his pictures, videos and stories that chord resounds and, more often than not, amazes. For decades, Cullum has captured wildlife in both day-to-day and extraordinary circumstances. That’s every day, day to day. He’s up before sunrise trolling local habitats on the hunt for that unusual picture. “An hour before sunrise, from twilight to dawn, that’s when you see animals doing their wild things,” he explained. Nowadays, pretty much anybody with a digital camera or even a Smartphone can catch a decent
shot of a deer. But rare is the photographer who will submerge himself in the water or sit in a tree for hours waiting to capture that special moment – a family of deer playing chase, a lone deer frolicking in the ocean surf, a grizzly bear having an afternoon snack, or a baby groundhog munching on a dandelion. Cullum credits two sources with his gift for finding “wild things being wild.” He recalls his grandparents, Evangeline and Leo Burke of Montauk, had “this shine.” Animals were attracted to them, somehow knowing they were harmless, he explained. “I feel they passed that one to me,” he said. Also, he believes his son Christopher, who succumbed to leukemia at just two and a half years old in 1992, “guides me to all these beautiful things I find so I can share them with others. My son is with me all the time in my heart and there are things I see, that I’ll never see again. I credit him for that.” Cullum offers pictures of things he’ll never see again and most of us will never see - period. His career as a wildlife photographer spans decades

a n d r e g i o n s o f t h e c o u n t r y. Als o a pr o f es s io na l tr a pper, he began physically – not just photographically -- catching wildlife in Arizona. Cullum’s job was to remove rattlesnakes, and, because they had spiritual significance to Native Americans, he couldn’t hurt them. He went on the work as a ranch hand in Texas catching and photographing wild boar, mountain lions, and coyotes. A year in Yellowstone Park turned into four, as Cullum shot photographs in ”brutal” conditions. He recalled a tense moment when a family of coyotes stood between him and
him truck as he wondered whether they’d move on before his fingertips froze. His photos sold successfully in Wyoming and Idaho. “It took off so much, I had to get every animal I could, and there were so many.” He found fishers, martens, weasels, mink, and, of course the grizzly. He’s captured mountain lions, javelinas, and coyotes, to name just a few. Cullum eventually decided to return home and turn his lenses toward the animals in his birthplace, The Hamptons.

It’s summer and you have been invited to a three-month-long party as your reward for living through another lousy winter. Here’s what to expect for the next 96 days: Incredibly fresh, sweet corn from that little farm stand on Sagg Main just south of Loaves & Fishes . . .

Jimmy Buffet singing “Cheeseburger in Paradise” on your car radio. Jack Johnson singing about making “Banana Pancakes” . . . Margaritas . . .

Campaign 2013
The Race Is On In Southampton By Rick Murphy
It’s Official: Kabot vs. ThroneHolst III is on. The pair will lock horns for a third time as Linda Kabot, a former Southampton Town Supervisor, tries to unseat Anna Throne-Holst, the incumbent. Frank Zappone, the Deputy Town Supervisor, will run alongside ThroneHolst on the Democratic Party line. Brad Bender, a community leader who narrowly lost a bid for town board two years ago, will join them. Kabot, who also ser ved on the town board before becoming supervisor in 2008, will head the Republican ticket. Stan Glinka of Hampton Bays, an executive with Bridgehampton National Bank, will run for the town board on the same ticket, along with Jeff Mansfield, a financier, of Bridgehampton. Kabot ran as a write-in candidate two years ago after the GOP failed to nominate a candidate. She tallied 3800 votes, a remarkable total under the circumstances. Four years ago Throne-Holst defeated Kabot handily, but only after Kabot was charged with a DWI by Westhampton Beach Police two months before the election. She was acquitted of the charges after the election, however. “I feel energized and totally motivated,” Throne-Holst said this week. “I’m running on my record and I have two great partners.” “People in the community know that I am honest, sincere, and trustworthy,” Kabot said yesterday. It didn’t take long for the supervisor candidates to lace up the gloves, however. Both came out swinging this week. “She has her record and I have mine,” Throne-Holst said. “Do people want to go back to unbalanced budgets, chaos and confusion in town hall, and borrowing that could have bankrupted us?” “It is not surprising to me that Anna is again making wrongful allegations aimed at me with respect to my tenure as supervisor and councilwoman for Southampton Town,” Kabot said. “Anna has a history of taking credit for the accomplishments of others and attempting to shift blame for her mistakes. She’s clever and manipulative.” Both candidates praised their running mates. “Frank has been amazing,” Throne-Holst said about Zappone. “He’s been in town hall as long as I have, and he has the respect of the staff.” Bender, the supervisor said,
“works tirelessly to represent the community, and he’ll be a full time councilperson.” The Democrats will also support Highway Supervisor Alex Gregor, who has feuded with Throne-Holst often over the past two years. “I am very optimistic we will work together going forward,” ThroneHolst said of the sometimes-thorny relationship between the two. “Stan knows everyone in
Hampton Bays,” Kabot remarked about Glinka. “He’s a mover and a shaker. He’s got good ideas not only about finance, but about code enforcement.” Mansfield, she said, “Has roots dating back 50 years. He’s a second amendment guy, and he is a community advocate.” The Independent will profile all of the candidates in the weeks ahead.

Trailers Really Closing This Time By Kitty Merrill
When she said, “It may be Memorial Day, but it feels like Christmas,” on Friday, Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst wasn’t referring to the unseasonably frigid holiday weekend weather. She was talking about County Executive Steve Bellone’s announcement about two homeless sex offender trailers located in Southampton Town. The trouble is due to residency restrictions enacted several years ago, homeless sex offenders had to be segregated from other homeless people; they couldn’t be housed in the same shelters with families and women. That left county officials
scrambling for a solution. They scrambled out east, and a trailer popped up “under cover of darkness,” opponents said, in Westhampton. Another soon followed, and was placed on the grounds of the county jail in Riverside. The reaction from residents, plus elected officials in Southampton and Riverhead Towns was passionate. Why should they bear the entire burden of housing admitted criminals? Southampton Town even sued, and then-county executive Steve Levy claimed he’d find a way to share the burden . . . but he never did. When Bellone took office, he
vowed to relieve Southampton Town. Months went by, a year passed and just as it began to look grim, last week Bellone announced plans to shutter the temporary shelters. The clients were relocated, and he said at a press conference in Riverhead Town Hall, that he expects both trailers to be fully decommissioned this week. “It took a new County Executive who understood that this was bad public policy,” Legislator Jay Schneiderman, who has been fighting the trailer battle since 2007, wrote in an email on Sunday. “I have worked very hard to help bring about the end of the trailers.

I have waited six years for this day (when they actually close). The CE has promised me the trailers will be removed from the two sites. Ending this program was impossible under Levy, who put up many obstacles and even after we overrode his vetoes, continued to do nothing about the unfair program that he created.” The legislature grappled with the issue for months. Members finally came up with the idea of mini shelters housing no more than six homeless sex offenders, located in each town in the county, without one municipality bearing the full burden. It took months to garner approval of the plan, but it was never implemented. Instead, early this year Bellone sponsored a Community Protection Act that included a variety of provisions for managing the homeless population, such as increased monitoring. Opponents complained that the temporary nature of the trailers often let offenders evade the mandated registr y. Officials have called Bellone’s law the toughest sex offender monitoring, verification and enforcement in the nation. Separately last week Bellone announced eight arrests under the law. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

Campolo’s Assessing By Kitty Merrill
Assemblyman Fred Thiele often notes that local politics are “a blood sport.” Shakespeare’s The Tempest was the inspiration for the oft-quoted “politics make strange bedfellows.” Both notions may have crossed the minds of insiders this week as Carole Campolo discussed a potential run for East Hampton town supervisor on the Republican line. On the heels of the long awaited official endorsement of Larry Cantwell as the Democratic standard bearer, Campolo revealed she’s considering a run. Early on, Legislator Jay Schneiderman was considered the shoo-in for the Republican nod in the race for town supervisor. He eventually decided to run for his final term on the legislature. Montauk realtor Nancy Keeshan was in the running for a brief time, but she dropped out as well, leaving a hole at the top of the Republican ticket. There was talk of a crossendorsement for Cantwell, who’d also garnered the Independence Party’s support, but word is, his D e m o crat ic s up p o rte rs w e re ardently opposed to a three-way endorsement. Stating that she was “trying to assess the situation” before making a decision, Campolo said Friday that she was troubled by the idea that the Republican message and policies, particularly the current administration’s success at righting and saving the town’s sinking fiscal ship, could go unheralded if Cantwell runs unopposed. “The Republican message and policies were successful,” she said. “It’s a shame they can’t be talked about.” Offering voters just one candidate to choose from would be, she said, “tragic.” Campolo said she’s investigating whether the local GOP has the financial support and organizational structure to support a candidate for supervisor. A loyal supporter of Supervisor Bill Wilkinson -- even as his base

www.indyeastend.com
has abandoned him – Campolo’s frequently clashed with potential running mate, the Republican and Independence Party-endorsed incumbent Councilman Dominick Stanzione. “That’s a problem,” she admitted. Campolo worked on Stanzione’s campaign in 2009. The pair broke last year when the councilman balked at going along with Wilkinson’s plan
to sell the town scavenger waste plant. Since then Campolo has been just as harsh in her criticism of the fellow Republican as she has been when discussing Democratic board members Sylvia Overby and Peter Van Scoyoc. The week Campolo called Stanzione “the Anthony Kennedy on the town board,” referencing the Supreme Court Justice who
May 29, 2013
was appointed by Ronald Reagan and is often the swing vote on decisions. She described Overby and Van Scoyoc as “environmental extremists.” Neither of the pair is up for re-election; if Campolo were elected supervisor, she’d serve with Overby and Van Scoyoc. As of Friday, Campolo said she had yet to approach the Republican committee to find out how party leaders feel about a potential candidacy. Party Chair Curt Kappel did not return requests for comment. Stanzione declined to comment for the record. kmerrill@indyeastend.com

St. John’s Episcopal Nears A Milestone By Rick Murphy
Back in 1908 worshippers at St. John’s Episcopal Church met at the Parrish Art Museum, and later at Odd Fellows Hall. But the dream was to have a church of their own, and the following year a parcel of land owned by Albert Foster on South Main Street in Southampton Village was put on the market. The worshippers secured an option to buy, and within two years had raised enough to close the deal -- $8000. In September 1912, construction began. At the time the determined congregation of 77 families and 89 communicants probably never envisioned the church not only
would be built, but would survive and prosper; June 29, marks the 100th anniversary -- June 29 is St. Peter’s Day. Construction costs totaled $16,680. According to notes provided by the Southampton Historical Society the Reverend Samuel Centennial Fish, the leader of the congregation, had founded churches in several other hamlets and villages in the Hamptons. “Back in the 1890s the assistant at St. Luke’s [Fish] was directed to start more churches,” related Reverend Peter M. Larsen, who has been rector at St. John’s for 24 years. He eventually started St.
Ann’s in Bridgehampton; St. Mary’s in Hampton Bays, St. Mark’s in Westhampton Beach, and St. John’s.

“His middle name was Centennial because he was born in 1876,” Reverend Larsen said of Fish. Rector Fish lived in the rectory next door to where the church would be built - it dates back to 1730, one of the oldest buildings in the village. Original church organizations included the Woman’s Guild, the Men’s Guild, Girls’ Friendly Society, a vested choir, and Sunday school, and also a Babies’ Branch of the Woman’s Auxiliary. The church has grown over the years – there are about 500 members now, “some year-rounders, some city folks, and some snowbirds,” Larsen said. The building was expanded in 1960 to include Sunday school and choir rooms, but the interior is virtually the same today as it was 100 years ago. There is an art show planned this summer, and the proceeds are designated toward the church’s outreach efforts. “Over the past decade or so St. John’s has focused its mission outward – searching for ways to serve others locally, regionally and globally,” Rev. Larsen said. Projects have ranged from assistance to storm ravaged areas to Honor Flights of Long Island for WWII Veterans traveling to our nation’s capital in order to visit their War Memorial. On the weekend after Labor Day a gala anniversary luncheon will be held in a tent erected on the 3.5-acre property and the community is welcome. “Serving this parish for the past 24 years has been an honor and a privilege. The congregation is a wonderful mix,“ Larsen said.

Certified Public Accountants at Nawrocki Smith (a Melville-based firm privately hired by the town to do the annual audit), presented to the town board financial highlights from the audit of 2012, and for the most part, it’s all good news. Tellier, a partner at Nawrocki Smith, said the town had a positive working capital of $74.2 million, which was consistent with 2011. The town’s investment in capital assets equaled to $782.5 million. The increase is due to the additional Community Preservation Fund land purchases and ongoing capital projects, Tellier said.
Don’t Get Stuck In The Heat This Summer.
“You have done a complete 180,” Tellier said to town board members last Thursday morning. “And that’s certainly commendable.” A 13.5 percent decrease in expenses was another financial highlight. The decrease to $115.5 million (from $133.6 million in 2011) is attributable to reduced staffing (caused by retirement incentives and attrition), health contributions from employees and a reduction of accrued interest expense on longterm debt. “It’s also attributable to us budgeting very conservatively,” Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst said. Tellier also explained, along with Comptroller Len Marchese, that the town has replaced old debt with new debt at a better interest rate. “And that’s not something that hasn’t always been the case,” said Councilwoman Bridget Fleming. The police fund had an excess of revenues over expenditures of $1.8 million. The highway fund had an excess of revenues over expenditures of $579,000. As of last year’s end, Tellier said, no funds were in a deficit position. Emily@indyeastend.com IndependentAd_July12_Vert.pdf

Task Force Raids North Sea House An investigation into drug sales in the North Sea section of Southampton by the East End Drug Task Force prompted a raid on a Locust Avenue home last Thursday and the arrest of a 27-year-old Michael Johnson. “Inside the home, EEDTF investigators seized heroin, cocaine, marijuana, pills, cash, as well as scales and packaging materials,” said Suffolk County District Attorney Tom Spota. The Southampton Town Police Emergency Services Unit assisted Task Force member agencies in serving the warrant, as did the New York State Police K-9 unit, DA Spota said. Johnson was charged with felony Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance third degree, Intent to Sell; Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance, Narcotic; Criminal Possession of a Narcotic Drug fourth degree, plus misdemeanor Criminal Possession of a Controlled Substance, seventh degree, second degree Criminal Use of Drug Paraphernalia, Act in a manner Injurious to a Child, and Unlawful Possession of Marijuana, a violation. The East End Drug Task Force is a multi-jurisdictional drug enforcement unit funded by the office of Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota. The task force includes detectives, police officers and law enforcement personnel from the New York State Police, Suffolk County Police Department, Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office, Suffolk County Department of Probation, Southampton Town Police Department, Riverhead Police Department, East Hampton Town Police Department, Easthampton Village Police Department, Southampton Village Police Department, Sag Harbor Village Police Department, Southold Police Department and Suffolk County District Attorney Investigators.

Hatchery Demo On Tap
By Miles X. Logan
Sea Scout Ship 908 has created a hatchery on the waterfront at Conscience Point in North Sea to reintroduce oyster beds and other shellfish into the Peconic Bay. The scouts and their leaders will give demonstrations on how they created this remarkable project this Saturday at 11 AM at the Sag Harbor Famers Market. Everyone is welcome to enjoy the view of the bay and to learn how young people are introducing new sustainable methods into local waterways. Information on children’s programs during the summer will be available. Admission is free and light refreshments will be served. This project is a collaboration between Sea Scout Ship 908, Southampton Historical Museum, and the Town of Southampton. The Sea Scouts, a maritime division of the Boys Scouts of America’s Venturing Program, was founded in 1912. The goals of Sea Scouting are to provide young men and women, aged 14 to 21, with positive nautical-related experiences that help members mature and
prepare them to become responsible adults. The Sea Scouts Ship 908 in North Sea was founded on the principle of unconditional giving. The ship is made up of young men and women from high school and college who are committed to serving others, keeping in mind God, Country and Community. Their focus is developing leadership skills through maritime ventures and community service. Since the Southampton’s chapter founding in 2011, the Sea Scouts have developed a popular sailing and boating program. They have also volunteered for many community service-learning projects, as well. Their latest and most ambitious venture addresses the environmental needs of Southampton Town: to restore shellfish stocks in town waters and more specifically, to help improve water quality in currently impaired areas of western Shinnecock Bay. Since early last summer, the Sea Scouts Ship 908 has been raising oysters in North Sea Harbor, in a floating upwell system that feeds the tiny spats a constant stream

of nutrients and algae, while protecting them from predators. What started out as a summer inwater oyster hatchery in a floating upweller system (FLUPSY) has turned into a community-driven construction project for a portable shellfish hatchery at Conscience Point, alongside North Sea Harbor. Along with the hatchery goals of providing millions of shellfish spat to town waters, an accompanying educational program will connect
Southampton Town’s maritime and colonial heritage with contemporary science about our bays, aquaculture, and protecting our waters. The educational program combines in-class, interactive teachings of bivalves (clams, oysters and scallops) with a creative project using shells as an art medium, and a lesson on the biology of shellfish and their critical role in filtering our bays.

Protestors rallied to fight genetically modified organisms in our food on Saturday in Montauk, joining millions of others in an international day of unified outcry.
Monsanto March In Montauk By Kitty Merrill
On Saturday, March Against Monsanto rallies were reportedly held in 52 countries and 436 cities around the globe, with protestors offering ardent opposition to the company’s production of engineered seeds used to grow genetically modified plants. According to the movement’s website, Tami Monroe Canal, lead organizer and creator of the nowviral Facebook page, says she was inspired to start the movement to protect her two daughters. “I feel Monsanto threatens their generation’s health, fertility and longevity. I couldn’t sit by idly, waiting for someone else to do something.” March Against Monsanto’s
mission statement explains the why behind the march: Research studies have shown that Monsanto’s genetically-modified foods can lead to serious health conditions such as the development of cancer tumors, infertility and birth defects. “In the United States, the FDA, the agency tasked with ensuring food safety for the population, is steered by ex-Monsanto executives, and we feel that’s a questionable conflict of interests and explains the lack of government-led research on the long-term effects of GM products,” organizers state, continuing, “Recently, the U.S. Congress and president collectively passed the nicknamed “Monsanto Protection Act” that, among other things, bans courts from halting

The town board decided against granting the Cyril’s Fish House zone change, but it was BCB as usual over the weekend at the popular watering hole.
Bye Bye BBCs? The East Hampton Town Board reached a consensus and decided to end the zone change process started by the owners of the Cyril’s Fish House on the Napeague Stretch. Spurred by a plethora of zoning code violations, owners Michael and Bonnie Dioguardi sought approval to downzone the property from residential to a commercial zone, neighborhood business. They felt the zone change would hep them address the code violations. The move met with vocal opposition, with opponents feeling that granting the zone change was comparable to “rewarding bad behavior.” During the May 21 work session three members of the town board – Peter Van Scoyoc, Sylvia Overby and Dominick Stanzione – voted against the proposal. Supervisor Bill Wilkinson and Councilwoman Theresa Quigley were in favor of the application. K.M.

RICK’S SPACE How I Survived Our Memorial Day Dinner Party Karen cooked dinner for the family Monday, as an anxious world nervously held its collective breath. Normally, a wife making a holiday dinner for her family is not big news. But as regular readers know, any time Karen ventures into the kitchen and exits without hurting herself or others it’s a major story. After all she has, in her few appearances there, blown up three microwave ovens and started two major fires. Her signature dish, broiled chicken with barbecue sauce, is black on the outside and raw on the inside. I called it chicken tartare and yes, she set the kitchen on fire the last time she made it. This time around, her menu items reflected her culinary knowledge and impeccable ability to give me agita. Lamb shanks with pineapple, sweet potatoes, and frozen spinach.
It sounds OK to some, I imagine, but the problem with her choices was I hate lamb, I hate pineapple and sweet potatoes, and frozen spinach is best served cooked, a fact that was apparently lost on Karen. You might be wondering why I didn’t inform her up front that I didn’t like her choices. The answer is simple: no matter what she was planning to cook, I knew going in it would turn out badly, so it didn’t much matter. My job was twofold: drink as much wine as humanly possible before dinner (to give me courage to face the agony that would surely come) and keep a keen eye out for flames. Karen has no idea what all the little items and gadgets in the kitchen are for. The other morning she was putting grinds in the coffee maker, using a tiny ladle. The coffee

can was on the counter 10-feet away. She would awkwardly dip the tiny ladle into the can, come out with a few grains of ground beans and walk slowly towards the coffee maker while the grinds spilled all over the floor. She had been doing it for 15 minutes; there was enough coffee in the maker to make maybe one cup. Without saying a word I took a large spoon, picked up the coffee can, carried it over to the coffee maker, filled it up, and turned it on. You see, because I have a job I don’t have the luxury of waiting all freaking morning for one lousy cup of java. She used to make chopped meat for the dogs every morning. Because the dogs stood by her feet staring at her while she was cooking, she though they were gleefully awaiting the treat with much anticipation. In reality, of course, they were nervously staring at her, hoping the flames didn’t engulf her until after they ate. Like wild animals during a raging forest fire, they instinctively sensed danger. One night she was taking the meat out of the frying pan and putting it into the dog dishes. The process was methodical, because she appeared to be squeezing the little bits of meat on the spoon, trying to extract the grease. “Honey, what are you doing?” “I don’t want to dogs to eat all this fat,” she replied. I handed her a slotted spoon. “Use this,” I said. “Oh! I always wondered what that was for!” she said, genuinely surprised. Yes dear, and next week’s lesson we’ll discuss the can opener and cheese grater. Please refrain from using knives to do the chores these handy items were invented to do. Anyhow, to get back to the lamb and pineapple combo, I figured her motivation was to make me as deathly ill as is possible without

dying. Her logic, if indeed she wanted to kill me, would be I would be so busy throwing up from the lamb and pineapple that I would be unable to flee the resulting fire. The family sat silently in the living room as Karen set the table. Some of us prayed. Others wept. We all drank heavily, including the children, who are allowed alcohol on special occasions like this one, when they are facing imminent death. “Smells good,” I said tepidly at one point as a foul odor wafted into the room. “Oh, that was my hair burning!” Karen said cheerfully. Finally, it was time to eat. “Come and get it!” Karen yelled, obviously proud of the fact the house wasn’t ablaze. We walked single file toward the dining room, like prisoners might to the execution chamber. I hugged a few relatives and said my goodbyes. A properly prepared lamb shank is what I call Barney food, a big bone with meat on it right out of “The Flintstones.” I braise mine in beef stock with some sherry, onions, shallots, carrots, celery and white beans and serve it with a dry red. If I do say so myself, it is excellent. Karen’s version, which I called Lamb Shank a la Don Ho, was, well, it was . . . interesting. I especially enjoyed . . . the bread. And frozen spinach is probably an enjoyable summer treat. The key thing for me, as I fondly look back at our Memorial Day dinner, is that I’m still alive and the house is still standing. Thank you Jesus, thank you Lord. Epilogue: Flush with success, Karen has now gotten overly ambitious. “From now on when you come home from work there’s going to be a hot meal waiting for you,” she vowed. Note to self: buy fire extinguishers, and plenty of them. And oh yeah, see if you can purchase microwaves in bulk.

It’s apparent that officials at the Springs School Board have conspired to hide the truth from this community by arrogantly obfuscating the facts. The Independent emailed a series of questions about a cheating scandal involving Principal Eric Casale at his former school early last week and no one replied. Kathee Burke-Gonzalez, the school board president, finally called to say the school was unable to acquire any documents about the matter from Casale’s former district -- even though we were able to obtain them. She said district officials could not respond until they reviewed them -- could we fax them to her? We complied in the spirit of cooperation. Apparently school officials had no intention of honestly answering our questions, though. Instead, after an illegal school board meeting (or meetings) the district and Casale hurriedly posted messages on the school website the following Saturday in a move designed to preempt and spin our investigation. “Over the past several days, the Springs UFSD Board of Education and Superintendent Dominic Mucci have had several in-depth conversations . . .” the board wrote. Since the press wasn’t notified of these meetings, they were by law illegal. The school, as far as we know, didn’t contact any of the players involved. Instead, they asked us to show them the material we gathered. Aren’t the school’s vaunted attorneys capable of conducting their own investigation? They certainly get paid enough money. The story line about Casale’s hire is that a consultant, Edward Swensen, and Springs School’s interim principal at the time, Christopher Sarlo, interviewed and vetted Casale prior to his hire. Unfortunately, that doesn’t jibe with the minutes of a May, 2005 board meeting and newspaper accounts - keep in mind the investigation into the cheating scandal that implicated Casale had begun three months earlier. According to published reports Superintendent Thomas Quinn, Sarlo, parents, teachers and board members all interviewed Casale. It is inconceivable the subject of the cheating investigation never surfaced – unless Casale never mentioned it. Casale also posted a letter Saturday. He wrote: “When I became aware of the [cheating] allegation in 2005, I contacted my Superintendent of Schools. Subsequently, I began looking for a new position.” Note Casale didn’t say he was enraged. Note he didn’t vehemently deny or fight the charge. His first reaction was to quit his job and flee the jurisdiction of the New York City School District in the midst of an investigation.

Springs School Superintendent Dom Mucci, Casale, and Burke-Gonzalez have repeatedly failed to answer straightforward questions – their strategy is to attack The Independent’s credibility and hope the the controversy will die down. Meanwhile, the district has petitioned the state to allow Mucci to stay on the job for another year, even though he is collecting a fat pension. The law for allowing a retired administrator to double dip is very clear: a waiver can be granted only if “a temporary need exists and a thorough and good faith search for a non-retired individual to fill the position has not yet been successful. All certified non-retired candidates for the position must first be considered.” According to minutes from a Springs School Board meeting in February, “Resumes are being accepted through close of business on February 22, 2012. As of this date there have been 14 applicants. Ms. Burke Gonzalez commented that the Board was hopeful that Mr. Mucci would again submit his resume.” The idea was to replace Mucci, not encourage him to apply again. This is in direct conflict with the intent of the state law. Rather, the district should again advertise the position rather than try to hand it to Mucci for another year of double-dipping. We believe the board wants to keep Mucci, a journeyman administrator with a ho-hum resume, on board because he goes along the secretive strategy of hiding bad news from the public. Casale wrote: “This weekend, I came to learn [courtesy of The Independent] that in August of 2005, The Office of Special Investigations of the NYC Board of Education issued a final report.” Frankly, it’s hard to fathom that a principal, being investigated for serious careerthreatening allegations, didn’t even bother to find out the results of the investigation until eight years later. It stretches all credibility, but that’s consistent with everything that has happened during this latest scandal. This isn’t about the single alleged incident of cheating that took place last month at Springs School. Everyone concerned agrees it was a benign accusation and the school will most likely be cleared of wrongdoing. Casale clearly overreacted – and now we know why. Why are school officials holding secret meetings, conniving behind closed doors to spin the news, refusing to answer straight-forward questions and lying to the people of this community? THAT is the real scandal.
Recently there appeared in The Independent a refreshingly upbeat letter suggesting a pipeline carrying desalinated water across and throughout our country rather than filthy tar sand. It made so much sense that I’m surprised that something of the sort has not yet been initiated. There is such an obvious benefit to be had. The letter was a positive breath of fresh air as opposed to the non stop, paranoid ravings by a few gun enthusiasts
whose letters appear regularly in the Independent. It is hard to reconcile this backward thinking, convinced that their government is out to get them, with the fact that they are living in the enlightened part of the country rather than a Texas or Arizona mentality. The Hamptons, no less. That these people actually think they need be ready to ward off the Government which will be coming for them is laughable Continued on Page 24.

if it wasn’t so pitiful. I’m surprised they are not suggesting secession from the Union. Embarrassing. We need more positive thinking such as the pipe dream to benefit the country and less invented conspiracy theories to destroy it. ARLENE PHILOMENA
No Peace for Israel Letter to the Editor, I take exception to the two state solution proposed for Israel and Palestine. Some people, including world leaders, are proposing setting borders for a Palestinian state in the West Bank, a conditional Israeli settlement building freeze, a Jerusalem agreement and a Palestinian relinquishment of the claim for the right of return for millions of Arabs. All these proposals sound like wonderful ideas when sitting around a table negotiating so-called peace for Israel and the Palestinians, but there is a major fallacy associated with a peace agreement. The Palestinians, like other Arabs and the Persians, cannot be trusted to honor any documents they might agree to and sign with Israel. They hate the Israeli Jews and will tear up a peace treaty and attack Israel when the opportunity arises. Israel can negotiate with the Palestinians and others in the Middle East, but must realize peace is not possible with its neighbors. War might not come next week or next year, but it is inevitable, and Israel has to prepare for it. Peace in the Middle East is an interlude for Israel to prepare for the next war ad infinitum. Israel’s wars might be preludes to future warfare around the globe. DONALD A. MOSKOWITZ
For The People Dear Editor, My name is Jeffrey Mansfield, and I have the honor and privilege of being your candidate for Southampton Town Council. My family and I have a long history in Southampton Town. My relatives have been in Quogue for over 50 years. My mother, a schoolteacher, and my father, a small business owner, met in Southampton on Cooper’s Beach, and I, along with my wife and three small children, reside in the same modest farmhouse in Bridgehampton that has been in my family since 1971. I was educated at Syracuse University, earning an undergraduate degree in Arts

How are you planning to spend the rainy holiday weekend? Yoni Rechtman I’m planning to drink a lot of beer. And instead of drinking a lot of beer outside I’ll be drinking a lot of beer - inside. And plans to jump in the swimming pool aren’t the schedule now. But you never know.
Gus Jacobs I was a little disappointed about the weather forecast. But they say Memorial Day will be good as far as the weather goes. So I’m just going to stay optimistic about Monday and enjoy being with friends.
Emily Jennerich Sunday night was supposed to be a beach barbeque but we’ll go to a friend who has a great fire pit at their house instead and we’ll still have lots of fun. It will be fun to get everything ready together.
Jenna Chase I’ll be helping to cook for a barbeque at a friends house. The weather killed plans for getting outdoors a lot. But I love cooking and being with friends, so I’ll have a good time in spite of the weather.
and Sciences, a master’s in Business Administration, and a Law degree. I have over 15 years of experience as finance professional on Wall Street, having worked at Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch and Deutsche Bank. Approximately five years ago, we moved here year round because I believe this is the best place in the world to live and raise a family. Over the last few years I have focused on being a father and a husband, and helping in my community by volunteering at the local child-care center and public school, coaching youth athletics, reviving community sailing on Mecox Bay, and joining the Bridgehampton Citizens Advisory Committee. I have attended over 40 Town Hall meetings in an effort to understand the issues most important to the communities within our Town, and to learn first-hand how the Town Council operates. Last year I served on the Town’s Budget and Finance Committee and currently, I am a member of the Town’s Audit Advisory Committee. As a result, I am familiar with the staff at Town Hall, the Town’s finances, and the issues presently concerning the Town’s residents. From the earliest days of my childhood, I have appreciated what we have here in Southampton Town, and now wish to give
back, and help our community. Local events lead me to believe that we are not moving in a direction that will result in lower taxes, fuller employment, and common sense/ cost effective ways to protect our local environment. That is why I am running for the position of Councilman. I firmly believe in the concept of government for the people and by the people, and that our elected officials’ main job is to know the issues that are of importance to our residents. Once educated on an issue, our public servants should also look to inspire informative debate and then move quickly and efficiently to execute the will of the people. To that end, I promise to go on a campaign to solicit support by meeting and listening to as many voters as possible. We need to ensure that our Town leaders have the energy, devotion, and wherewithal to take on the issues we face both today and in the future, and who will do so by focusing on values we all share, such as fiscal responsibility, lower taxes, and smaller government. I am your candidate for Southampton Town Council because I share a deep respect for our local history, possess knowledge of the issues town-wide, and have the passion and moral standing Continued on Page 25.

When Wrigley was rescued, he looked like chopped meat. Hair and skin was ripped away, one of the hazards when dogs are kept for the wrong reasons. His outdoor pen was shared with multiple dogs, food was scarce and tension was high. F o r t u n a t e l y, C o m m u n i t y Outreach volunteers from RSVP, Inc., a local animal rescue group, provided medical care and found a foster home. Wrigley has made a remarkable recovery and his sweet personality defies his unfortunate past. He is in desperate need of a new foster.

Curating an exhibition is a seventh grade tradition at Ross School. For this project, students perform all the tasks of organizing an art show. They meet and interview professional local artists, take photos, write biographies, select work, install the show, and host the opening. This year, the students received help from their art teacher Jon Mulhern, their core teacher Carol Crane, and Dean of Visual Arts Jennifer Cross. “Clashing Resemblances: A Similarity in Nature” will remain on view through June 12.

Hampton Bays Finally Falls By Rick Murphy
The clock finally struck midnight for the Hampton Bays girl’s softball team Friday, ending the team’s quest for a Suffolk County Class B title. Blame the Center Moriches Lady Red Devils, who turned in a determined effort Friday to eliminate the locals, 5-2. Marley Tyler, on the bump for the losers after a sterling effort a day earlier, allowed two early runs, and Hampton Bays simply could not answer against Kiley Nolan, who notched the victory. Center Moriches, the top seed, will play Babylon for the title. Megan Harris had two hits for Hampton Bays.
On Thursday Tyler tossed a one-hitter and recorded six Ks as Hampton Bays, seeded third, knocked Mattituck out of the tournament 7-2. Rebecca Harris went 2-for-4 with a triple and two RBIs and Harris and McKenzie Tyler each had two hits. The Southampton and Pierson baseball teams, meanwhile, are alive and well. The Mariners, the top seed in Class B, were to have played yesterday against Mattituck after Saturday’s game was rained out. Pierson/Bridgehampton, the top seed in Class C, was to have played as well, against Port Jefferson. On Thursday Southold was
eliminated from the Class C tournament losing to Port Jefferson 10-3. Alex Poliwoda took the loss for the locals. Last Wednesday Mattituck, the third seed in Class B, knocked off Center Moriches 11-7 to run
their record to 15-8 for the year. Marcos Perivolaris broke a 77-7 tie in the sixth with a two-run single. Perivolaris went 2-for-3 with four ribbies and Joe Tardif went 4-for-5 with a double and four runs scored. Cameron Burt earned the victory.

Mets Mistake To Honor Rivera
The realignment of the MLB schedule now provides everyday interleague play. As a result the Mets and Yankees won’t be playing their usual three game series at both Citi Field and Yankee Stadium. The two teams will only play four games against each other this season; the past two nights in Flushing and then tonight and tomorrow in the Bronx. While I greatly preferred the two weekend series and don’t like the Subway Series kicking off on a holiday, the most bothersome part of this week for me was the Mets publicly honoring Yankees closer, Mariano Rivera. The announcement came out over the weekend that the Mets planned to honor the Yankee great, joining several other teams that have celebrated Rivera since he announced he was retiring after the season.
REAL ESTATE
THE INDEPENDENT Q Traveler Watchman
While many teams have presented Rivera with gifts and checks for his charity, the Mets should not be getting in line to publicly honor an opponent. Throughout Rivera’s dominance, the Mets have burned through such closers as Armando Benitez, Braden Looper, Billy Wagner, Aaron Heilman, Luis Ayala, and Francisco Rodriguez. Most were big name free agent signings who were supposed to be the shutdown, ninth-inning answer that their crosstown rival was. But unlike Rivera, the Mets long list of closers came up short too many times in the most pressurized moments. While it’s a respectful move for the Mets to give a donation to a charity of Rivera’s choice, publicly honoring his career is a slap in the
ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
face to their own fan base. I was fortunate enough to be at Game Five of the 2000 World Series. I watched Rivera step to the mound and shut the season on the only World Series we Mets fans have witnessed in the past twenty-seven years. If the Wilpons wanted to privately donate to Rivera’s charity to honor his incredible career, that’s their prerogative. But just like they seemed to honor the Brooklyn Dodgers more than their own franchise with the design of Citi Field, ownership is desperately lost. I felt the same when the Mets chose to honor Chipper Jones, who also dominated them in so many key moments over the last 15 years. Honoring Rivera was just another bitter pill that Mets fans were forced to swallow, when the play of their own team has given them enough bitter pills to cause an overdose. Ownership’s obligation is to the Mets fan, who has stuck by the team through a brutal half-decade. Ownership took a beating before finally putting more orange and blue colors around the stadium and they still won’t retire Gary Carter’s

number eight. But they’re more than happy to honor players that spent nearly two decades cleaning their clocks. Granted, it’s a different world of sports today than when my parents were young. Opponents are high fiving in games (see LeBron James and Paul George in the Eastern Conference Finals), and baseball players of opposing teams seem to have lengthy conversations on the base paths. Players are often hired hands, paid by a different team every year. Fans are expected to remain loyal and pay outrageous prices to watch a game in which many players seem more interested in arranging dinner with their opponents, who may have been their teammates last week or will be next. Call me old fashioned but I don’t think honoring the opponent is classy. This isn’t Little League, although you wouldn’t know that watching the Mets this year.

Coast Guard Auxiliary News By Vincent Pica
www.indyeastend.com
Commodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard
Safety First – In 10 Easy Steps
The United States Coast Guard characterizes its auxiliary corps as a “force multiplier,” enabling the activeduty and reserves corps to do more with the budgeted dollars allocated by the US Congress. USCG Auxiliarists donate 100 percent of their time to the tasks authorized by the Commandant of the United States Coast Guard. And no task is more important than promulgating and expanding the safety at sea. This column is about that.
The Ten Commandments Well, that might be a bit of an overstatement (these are hardly divinely inspired) and an understatement (there are a lot more than 10 things you can do to enhance safety for you and your crew.) However, the numbers associated with these 10 steps that any skipper can do, or insist is done, are compelling. #1 - Thou Shalt Wear a Lifejacket – If 16 mariners go into the water without a life-jacket, only 1 comes out. Conversely, if they fall overboard with a life-jacket, 15 come
out. Which cadre do you want to be in? Always have an adequate supply of personal flotation devices aboard. Make sure that children are wearing life-jackets that fit correctly. Federal and State law requires that they have one on. Only you, the skipper, can insure that it fits them properly. #2 – Never Shalt Thou Drink and Drive – Whether a car or a boat, it is just plain crazy – and illegal – to drink and drive. Statistics for individual years vary but I have never seen alcohol account for less than 25 percent of boating accidents in a given year. #3 – Taketh a Boating Safety Course – Yes, something as simple as an eight-hour boating safety class can make all the difference. Seventy percent of boating accidents involve skippers who have never taken a boating safety course. If you haven’t, start here http://www. cgaux.org/boatinged/ or email me below and we’ll get you squared away. #4 – Safety Begins With Thou –
www.indyeastend.com
Adults between the ages of 40 and 49 account for the highest rate of boating fatalities. You set the tone for safety for the entire crew and her passengers. Come on, Bunky, get that life-jacket on. #5 – Thou Shalt Know The Rules of Navigation – Can you imagine giving the keys to the family car to one of your children – and they have never opened the book of driving regulations, much less taken a course (see #3 above, Bunky.) You can get them online at the US Coast Guard’s Navigation Center. You can also get them from prior columns here. #6 – Thou Shalt Keep A Good Look-Out, While Driving Safely – You are required by law to always maintain a look-out. You are also required to use all available means to do so. Have radar? Turn it on, Skipper. Speed is another matter because, like driving a car, speed should always be reduced if visibility and/or weather demands it. #7 – Knoweth Thy Weather – Clearly, if you’ve ever left the dock under beautiful skies and then came home under heavy weather, you know how important is to know – before you go – what to expect during the course of your journey. Particularly for skippers of open boats, this can be all the difference, even between life and death. #8 – Haveth Thy Boat Meet Federal Standards – Can there be
May 29, 2013

any an easier way to ensure that your boat meets USCG requirements than getting a FREE vessel safety check? This is not a regulatory event – if the boat is missing some requirement, the examiner is very likely to give you his or her cell phone number and the advise to, “fix this and then give me a call – I’ll come right down, complete the safety check and affix the safety sticker to your windshield.” (see THE INDEPENDENT, “No Fuss - No Muss - Free Vessel Exams!”, 4/23/08 for details or just go to http:// safetyseal.net/GetVSC/, put in your zip code and a vessel examiner will contact you directly.) #9 – Useth a Carbon Monoxide Detector – If you have an enclosed cabin, equip it with a Carbon Monoxide detector. Nothing else will protect you from the odorless, tasteless gas that can kill you and yours. #10 – Thy Shalt File a Float Plan – The US Coast Guard recommends that you always tell a friend or family member where you plan to go and when you’ll be back. Make it a habit before leaving on any boat trip. 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 . . .”

humane manner. This spring, his two careers collided in an incredible way. In April, a friend alerted Cullum to a family of red foxes living in a den off Accabonac Road in East Hampton. “I figured I’d go and get

a couple of shots,” he said. “What I got was so much more.” What visitors to his website get is a short film chronicling the family, the extraordinary way it grows and Cullum’s story of the events told with an infectious awe of the animals. The beginning of “The Red Fox of East Hampton” shows how he set up stealthily at one den. Foxes actually keep more than one pied-a-terre and move around if spooked “like we do when the summer people come.”

With great care, he remained motionless as the parents of six kits circled him warily, papa fox sniffing his shoulder. Eventually, the camoclad Cullum learned the family’s routine and was able to settle in and take hundreds of photographs. Then, that “shine” and guidance thing happened. Cullum was called to Watermill to remove a family of foxes that had set up housekeeping under a resident’s deck. When a nearby farmer dispatched the mother of four kits, Cullum had an idea. He’d introduce the orphans to the Accabonac family – “The theory being the average litter for a red fox vixen is 6 to 10 . . . and animals can’t count” – and see what happened. Titles on the screen provide narrative for “The Red Foxes of East Hampton.” “I couldn’t be happier with the results and the awesome education,” Cullum concludes in the film that chronicles his inspiring outdoor odyssey. Visitors to the ImaginationNature website receive an education, too. Many of Cullum’s photographs are accompanied by the story of the shoot. Written in a simple, sweet and sometimes self-deprecating style, the essays are rife with facts about the animals and technical details of his shooting strategies. “I’ve always liked to write,” Cullum said, “and people say they like the stories as much as the pictures.” But it’s the pictures that draw the observer. Pictures that, for members of the imaginary club mentioned above, touch not just the eye, but the heart and spirit, too. To s e e “ T h e R e d Fo x e s o f E a s t H a m p t o n” v i s i t w w w.
