Mysterious Montauk Rock Surfaces By Rick Murphy
Ever y year on the Summer Solstice Matthew Thompson and his cousin Daniel Mendelson make a ceremonial walk around Montauk Point. Last year, though, Thompson stopped for a moment and looked out to sea – and saw something he’s never seen before, even though he is a lifelong Montauk resident who has walked the beaches hundreds of times. This time, a spiral rock peeked above the sea’s surface, its top side carved in an intricate pattern, perhaps never before seen by modern man. It was the Summer Solstice – June 22 — and an abnormally low tide. “It’s definitely a carving, a labyrinth or maze of some kind,” Thompson said. He returned to the site many times, and found the stone is only visible during extreme
low tides. T h e m y ste ri o u s s to ne ha s captivated his imagination. “At first I was wondering if it could be from Atlantis. I did some research. The Celtic Druids were said to have traveled to North America long before Columbus . . .” Indeed, there is ample evidence Druids came to the Northeast well before Columbus. “The ancient megaliths and stone circles, such as Stonehenge, have often been associated with the Druids. Lurid tales of `religious’ ceremonies involving human sacrifice, presided over by a strange class of mystical priests, have come down to us,” wrote Chris Witcombe, author of the “Earth Mysteries” series. Thompson has tried to identify the stones, writing and sending pictures to experts, even quizzing nearby neighbors. Still, it remains a mystery, though there are several similar stones in Connecticut

attributed to the Celtic Druids. “I have sent this image and questions to a few archeologists and anthropologists. I have yet to receive any answers. I feel any input on the subject will be most helpful,” Thompson said. Perhaps it is no coincidence that Camp Hero is just down the beach. The Montauk Project, an alleged series of secret United States government projects, was conducted at Camp Hero. The purpose: developing psychological warfare techniques and exotic research including about time travel, similar to The Philadelphia Experiment. Thompson noted the carving on the surface of the spiral rock resembles a maze. “I would like to ask a mathematician . . . some research indicates spirals can be given numeric values.” Thompson dismissed any notion that this could be a prank. “I don’t have the time or the skill to do this,” said. He is a swimming teacher and a lifeguard by profession and attended Montauk Elementary and East Hampton High School. The “Montauk Monster” was thought to be a carcass of some kind that washed ashore on the Montauk Beach, as first reported by The Independent in 2008. The identity of the creature and the veracity of stories surrounding it have been the subject of controversy and speculation. It is not known what happened to the carcass; it was said to be stolen. In any case, it mysteriously disappeared. The link between Thompson’s discovery and the Celtic Druids cannot be dismissed. In 2001 a rock carved into a chamber in the mountains in Putnam County captivated historians, according to the New York Times. “It was the early morning of March 20, the spring equinox, and
the sun was just creeping over the horizon. Its rays darted through the doorway and down the length of the long narrow chamber onto the back wall. The sunlight illuminated the interior as it does only once a year,” wrote Corey Kilgannon in the April 22, 2001, issue of the Times. The fact that it was discovered on Solstice is significant. “Archaeoastronomy, the alignment of structures with the heavens, is usually associated with . . . ancient wonders. In fact, this chamber tucked away in the woods of Putnam County resembles the Neolithic stone monuments of the ancient Celts. So do the roughly 100 similar stone chambers in Putnam since then,” The Times reported. At the time Martin Brech of the New England Antiquities Research Association told The Times he was “convinced that stone structures like this one were built by ancient European explorers, possibly Celts, who sailed to the New World centuries before Columbus.” “You’d only do something like this for religious purposes,” he concluded. But designs similar to the one on the Montauk rock date back hundreds of years earlier. An enormous oval labyrinth stone covered with a complex petroglyph known as the Hemet Maze Stone is said to be over 3000 years old, according to Debra L. Lewis, author of Druids In Ancient America? The Hemet, in Reinhardt Canyon, California, is one of many found all over the world Like Thompson’s discovery, each has a mineral based red coloring. They are usually visible only from the sky, leading to speculation by Lewis and others that they are markers to be used by aliens for navigation. “It’s time to put this out there and find out more,” Thompson said.

WHERE DID THE SUMMER GO?
This is an end-of-summer column I wrote last year. I’m repeating it because nothing has changed except I’m one year older.
I’m at that age where I misplace everything. Somehow I seem to have misplaced summer. It was here a minute ago. What happened? The days are dwindling down to a precious few and as best as I can remember,

Memorial Day was just a few hours ago. At my age I’m discovering my biggest enemy is not the clock but the calendar. And what is it with those people who control the calendar? Since when is it a good idea to put Labor Day a few hours from the end of August? Come the revolution, when I’m in charge, Labor Day will be celebrated on September 15th. School won’t start until October 1st. Have you noticed little kids have that “I don’t want to go back to school” look on their faces? The anxiety of the terrible last week of summer never leaves you. Last night I had my recurring nightmare where I’m back in school and my teacher was a miserable witch named Miss Stafford. (She is probably over 100 years old today and, if she’s alive, I would bet she is still a lousy teacher in the New York school system. But now she is still being protected by Mayor Bill de Blasio and the rest of the lame teachers’ union.) In my dream Miss Stafford is screaming at me because I haven’t

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT
done my homework. Then she announces there is going to be a test, and since I was sentenced to sit in the back of the room with the other “slow” kids, I realize there is no one I can even copy from. The test is a disaster. I’m too obtuse to even know what an obtuse angle is all about. The last thing I remember in the dream is Miss Stafford screaming at me that my grade was a 34. This is actually good news for me because I distinctly remember I had the exact same dream last year and I only got a 27 on the same test. If you love the Hamptons, and I do, the only thing that can cheer you up is the fact that at least those dreadful “August people” will soon be gone – on their way to Yonkers or Nutley, New Jersey, or wherever the hell they live. The road will be clogged with cars heading west with bikes on their roofs and couples who are each silently trying to remember the name of a good divorce lawyer. Those men and women who aren’t married are ending their summer romances. Suddenly “Mr. Right,” who was so interesting in July, is really something of a slug in September. And that incredibly cute woman who looked great by the dim light of Moby’s – the “hot” pop-up restaurant that was a favorite of the “Instagram their pizza” crowd – doesn’t look as good in the preautumn haze. I’ve tried everything I could to adjust to the end of this summer. Last week I realized I hadn’t done so many of the things I usually do in summer. I hadn’t barbecued
IN THE NEWS
all that much, so I decided to barbecue hamburgers, which is a good old summer thing to do. That is when I realized that you can’t barbecue a decent hamburger these days because people with high cholesterol have intimidated the supermarkets into selling only politically correct chopped meat. Our housekeeper went out to the supermarket and brought back a package of chopped meat labeled 92 percent lean meat. Now if you know anything about hamburgers – real hamburgers, not the doctored crud they sell at McDonald’s – the more fat, the tastier the hamburger. It’s that simple. I tried to make a hamburger out of this lean junk and the minute I put it on the fire it turned black and ugly and looked and tasted exactly like a hockey puck. So my wife, the beautiful Judy Licht, and I jumped into our car and went back to the supermarket. She ran in, I circled. Then she came out empty-handed and steaming. “I can’t find a friggin’ package of meat that doesn’t scream about how lean the friggin’ chopped meat is. The friggin’ ‘fat Nazis’ are now dictating what kind of hamburgers we can eat. Forget about barbecuing.” It was then I realized the summer was over. I went home and made the two of us a politically correct salad. It sucked. When I finished it, for the first time in 30 years, I had the desire to smoke a cigarette. Just to be in control of my own demise. If you wish to comment on “Jerry’s Ink” please send your message to jerry@ dfjp.com.

It’s Still Unbearable, They Say By Kitty Merrill
As most people prepared to celebrate the Labor Day weekend last Thursday, those with homes under the flight path to East Hampton Airport braced themselves for, according to Cheryl Gold, “the horrible onslaught.” Earlier this spring the East Hampton Town Board enacted new restrictions designed to mitigate the relentless din of air traffic. They placed curfews on noisy aircraft and tried to implement a “one trip per week” regulation. That last, the most restrictive measure, is currently on hold as a lawsuit wends its way through the court system. Last week, about two-dozen protestors rallied in front of town hall, offering the message, “It’s not enough.” Taking the podium before a nearly packed audience, speaker after speaker -- from the North Fork, Sag Harbor, Noyac, and East Hampton -- described the misery of nonstop noise they experience living under the flight path. Annie Jaroszewicz lives in the center of Sag Harbor Village. Making complaints about craft ignoring the curfew and height restrictions would be a full time job, she said, reporting that she’d personally sent in 120 complaints. She wondered “who’s watching?” and described a moment seeing two helicopters and a jet “doing a dance” overhead as they jockeyed for position to land. Applause erupted as Jaroszewicz observed that for one man disembarking one helicopter, the lives of tens of thousands of people from Manhattan to East Hampton are disrupted. Another speaker, Georgia de Havenon, who lives near Georgica Pond, reported seeing five jumbo jets circling to land at one time. There’s soot from aircraft all over her porch. Speakers reported few pilots are complying with flight path height restrictions. Patricia Currie from Sag Harbor said she’s seen “everything but superman fly over my house,” and doubts they’re 500 feet above her roof, let alone 1000. “Things are not better, they’re worse than ever,” Tom MacNiven opined. To illustrate the volume of people affected by noise, he said he filed complaint number 74,296. MacNiven wants the town to “can” its attorney and find another. The notion elicited applause from those assembled. So, to, did Barr y Raebeck’s question: Can the Town of East Hampton close the airport? “No,” Supervisor Larry Cantwell
responded. The town is currently grant-obligated to the federal government through 2021. Another option could be banning commercial operations and returning the airport to “its intended use” as a recreational facility, Raebeck said. Jim Colligan, president of the Silver Beach Association on Shelter Island, and a candidate for Shelter Island Town Board, called for greater pressure on people of power, like Senate representatives. He also voiced a need for more transparency, particularly about how the curfew is being enforced and what is happening to pilots who break it. “Getting the word out might relieve some of the Continued on Page 25.

To Solarize Southampton
The Town of Southampton this week announced the launch of its Solarize Southampton Program, an initiative that aims to increase residential and commercial solar electric systems town-wide through tiered pricing options based on customer enrollment through October 16, 2015. In short, the price drops as more customers sign up. The effort is
led by the Town’s Department of Municipal Works in collaboration with the Town’s Sustainability Committee. “As a region with some of the highest electric rates in the nation, solar power offers an outstanding affordable alternative if the upfront costs are manageable for residents – and the Solarize program aims to make this happen,” said Supervisor
Anna Throne-Holst. “It’s a great opportunity that residents cannot afford to miss,” she added. The campaign is part of the Community Solar NY program and is supported by a $5000 grant from the Community Solar N Y 2 015 S o l a r i z e C a m p a i g n , which will provide technical assistance, marketing materials and funding. The purpose of the
IN THE NEWS
program is to create excitement, e n e r g y, a n d o p p o r t u n i t y t o pursue renewable energy solar installations within the Town. “Solar power will help move us toward a cleaner, more resilient energy future. We must act across a broad spectrum of alternatives if we are to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and our climatechanging emissions to a significant degree. The Solarize Southampton initiative is one of these vital steps, and I’m proud to support it,” said Councilwoman Bridget Fleming. The program allows the town to select a solar vendor that agrees to provide discounted pricing for an approximately six-week period of time. The town selected Southampton-based solar electric ser vice provider Green Logic through a competitive bidding process that considered local and quality criteria, as well as past performance within the town. “Tell your friends, family, and neighbors that now is the time to learn more about solar energy,” said Councilman Brad Bender. “The enrollment window is short – you must sign up by October 16, 2015 – but the deal improves as more people sign up,” he said. Several informational events will be held in the coming weeks to provide residents with details about the evaluation of home sites for solar energy, the tiered pricing structure, and (iii) low-cost financing options. Currently scheduled events include tonight at the Tiana Activity Center, located at 72 Dune Rd in Hampton Bays, from 5:30 to 7 PM and will include a kickoff celebration and information seminar. Light refreshments will be served. Also, on September 26, during SeptemberFest in Southampton Village, a Solarize Southampton information booth will be present. Complete program details are also available on the Town’s website at www.southamptontownny.gov or by calling the Engineering Office at 631-702-1750.

Truth without fear since 1826
Senior Of The Year Mattituck resident Thomas Reilly has been named Suffolk County’s Senior of the Year. He was awarded the distinction earlier this year by the Suffolk County Office of the Aging. He met last week with County Executive Steve Bellone, who visited the Southold Town Senior Center as part of his policy of hosting question and answer sessions designed to determine matters happening on the East End and throughout the county. Reilly was nominated to receive the honor by Southold Town Senior Center director Karen McLaughlin for his community service throughout the region spanning over two decades.

Annual juried art exhibition held at the Southold Historical Society’s Reichert Family Center. Russo’s work, entitled “Out Back,” was selected from nearly 30 entries submitted. The painting depicts the Moore outhouse and garden.

Housing Violations X 26 On Friday East Hampton Town Director of Ordinance Enforcement Betsy Bambrick announced that her officers investigated a property at 160 Red Dirt Road in Springs that had been reported as operating as a resort in a residential neighborhood. Code Enforcement conducted a comprehensive investigation that resulted in 26 counts of violations of Town of East Hampton and State of New York codes for the property owner. Leanna Erdmann, 57, the owner of the single-family residence, was charged with safety violations including converting a garage and an artist’s studio into additional living space without the required town permits, inspections and
approvals, numerous counts of failure to obtain building permits o r ce rti f i ca tes o f o c c upa nc y for renovations that had been completed at the location, and failure to implement pool safety measures such as alarms, selfclosing gates, and a code compliant pool barrier. During a trip to the premises investigators found Erdmann occupying one of the structures that had been illegally converted into a bedroom. “Investigators in this case relied in part on social media and online advertising to build their case against the owner for the changesof-use charges,” said Bambrick. “Review of an online rental site,
which advertised the location as an East Hampton resort rental, assisted in the case. Pictures, as well as user reviews, were very helpful.” One of the online sites advertising the resort was quickly deleted after the property owner was ticketed. Erdmann was issued an appearance ticket on the 26 charges and is due in East Hampton Town Justice Court on Monday, September 21. Town Supervisor Larry Cantwell said, “The continued vigilance of our Code Enforcement officers and their efforts to enforce the codes are key to taking the appropriate action against illegal rentals and unsafe living conditions.”

Positive For West Nile In Riverhead
Suffolk County Health Commissioner Dr. James L. Tomarken announced last Friday that 28 mosquito samples and one bird countywide have tested positive for West Nile virus, including one on the East End in Riverhead. The mosquito samples, all Culex pipiens-restuans, were collected from August 25 through September 1 from western and central Suffolk and Riverhead. The bird, a blue jay, was collected
on September 1 from Lake Grove. To date this year, 127 mosquito samples and 10 birds have tested positive for West Nile Virus. West Nile virus, first detected in birds and mosquito samples in Suffolk County in 1999 and again each year thereafter, is transmitted to humans by the bite of an infected mosquito. No humans or horses have tested positive for West Nile virus in Suffolk this year.
“The confirmation of West Nile virus in mosquito samples or birds indicates the presence of West Nile virus in the area,” said Dr. Tomarken. “While there is no cause for alarm, we urge residents to cooperate with us in our efforts to reduce the exposure to the virus, which can be debilitating to humans. The breed of mosquito known as Culex pipiens-restuans lay their eggs in fresh water-filled

containers, so dumping rainwater that collects in containers around your house is important.” To r e d u c e t h e m o s q u i t o population around homes, residents should try to eliminate stagnant water where mosquitoes breed. Dispose of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots or similar water-holding containers. Remove all discarded tires on the property. Make sure roof gutters drain properly, and clean clogged gutters.Turn over plastic wading pools and wheelbarrows when not in use. Change the water in birdbaths. Clean vegetation and debris from the edges of ponds and keep shrubs and grass trimmed. Clean and chlorinate swimming pools, outdoor saunas and hot tubs. Drain water from pool covers. According to Dr. Tomarken, most people infected with West Nile virus will experience mild or no symptoms, but some can develop severe symptoms including high fever, headache, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis. The symptoms may last several weeks, and neurological effects may be permanent. Individuals, especially those 50 years of age or older, or those with compromised immune systems, who are most at risk, are urged to take precautions to avoid being bitten by mosquitoes. To a v o i d m o s q u i t o b i t e s , residents are advised to minimize outdoor activities between dusk and dawn. Wear shoes and socks, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when outdoors for long periods of time, or when mosquitoes are more active. Use mosquito repellent when outdoors, following label directions carefully. Make sure all windows and doors have screens, and that all screens are in good repair. Dead birds found on properties may indicate the presence of West Nile virus in the area. To report dead birds, call the West Nile virus hotline in Suffolk County at 631-787-2200 from 9 AM to 4 PM Monday through Friday. Residents are encouraged to take a photograph of any bird in question. To report mosquito problems or stagnant pools of water, call the Department of Public Works’ Vector Control Division at 631-852-4270.

By Rick Murphy
RICK’S SPACE And This Is Why I Drink This epitomized the summer of 2015 in a nutshell: Sunday morning I went out for the newspapers, as I always do, but this time I went to the bagel shop because my in-laws wanted some stuff there. I was surprised to find a line of people stretching solidly outside. Normally I wouldn’t bother to wait but since my in-laws were out, I decided to accommodate them. There were three kinds of people on the line – locals, who lazily milled around in no particular hurry, young people, most of whom played with their phones, and the pushy summer people we’ve grown to hate. Every once in a while someone would just walk past the line and into the shop. Some ostensibly did so just to check it out. Others did so absent mindedly, perhaps a little hung over, not even realizing they were cutting the line. Then there were the obnoxious people who loudly announced they
were busy and had no intention of waiting on line. Svelte people, like myself, could probably have slithered in and out without being detected. But when cow-like, loudmouthed people do so, you can’t help but notice them. No one said anything, but I was beginning a slow boil, which meant I began glancing around for a heavy object to wield. Outside there are maybe five tables where people were eating. This one big goon drove up in a Land Lover, saw the line, and loudly announced he was going in anyway, and barged right by all of us. He must have ordered the food “to stay” instead of getting it bagged up to go, which was silly since there were 100 people milling around and all the tables were obviously taken. Here he comes, pushing through the crowd carrying five cardboard plates with bagels, cream cheese, lox, and so on. The paper plates

are bouncing in time with his heaving chest. The scalding coffee is dripping on his wrists that are turning bright red, as his face, “Where am I going to sit?” he yelled. “Where am I supposed to sit?” he yelled again, as the rest of us stared blankly at him. The people in the tables, some of whom were reading the newspapers, others who were talking among themselves, were eating their breakfasts as well. He walked right over to them. Did this goon really think they would vacate their table so he could sit down? Finally, the wife came over to help him carry the plates and gently lead the bull away from the china cabinet. And that is what’s wrong with the Hamptons – we let people like that live. While I am ranting, one more: I have long complained about the deli help around here, since I spent two summers working behind a counter. The idea, my boss used to hammer home, is service. These people are in a hurry, many of them on a break from work. Find out what they want, make it fast, and get the order right. It’s not brain surgery. We ’ v e a l l g o t t e n k e t c h u p or cheese or both on our egg sandwiches when we didn’t order it, opened up our ham and Swiss on rye with mayo to find no Swiss, or no mayo, or no rye bread. (I take
credit for the fact many delis now write down the orders since I ranted about it five years ago). So there I am Sunday, still looking for bagels, having fled the first place empty handed. I go to another bagel place nearby and once again there are lines. There are two registers, with people paying for what they had ordered; the rest of us are waiting in single file, perhaps 40 deep. I watch the guy in front. He is watching the young lady behind the counter wash down the microwave, then the counter. She is facing the other way from the customers. Finally he says, “Excuse me! Can I get a plain bagel toasted with cream cheese?” She then painstakingly slices the bagel and puts it in the toaster over behind her, and then stands there watching the bagel toast. I kid you not. Now if it were me, or if I were the boss, I would say “Does anyone else out there need just bagels?” I needed a half dozen, which would have taken moments to bag up. I bet that was true for most of us. Instead, there we were, watching the lady avoid eye contact with the throng as she watched a bagel toast. Finally, she took it out, and I swear I’m not making this up – smeared butter on it, wrapped it up, and gave it to the guy waiting. And that’s another thing that is so very wrong with The Hamptons nowadays.

Insight
Now The Real Season Starts Now that the tourists have departed, and schools are back in session, the real season begins. It’s the biennial ritual of electing town officials, and this year is about as crucial as memory can recall. There is much on the line, and there is the sense that there will be an upheaval seldom experienced in these parts. No more so that in Southampton. Only two first term councilmen, Stan Glinka and Brad Bender, are guaranteed to return. Jay Schneiderman, former East Hampton Town Supervisor and County Legislator, is looking to take over for Anna Throne-Holst, who elected not to seek another term. As we’ve said in this space, she deserves credit for bypassing the race to concentrate on a congressional run next year; despite grumblings to the contrary, she would have almost surely won reelection. Left behind, though, is the matter of the contested Planned Development Districts that have divided the town. There is also the sense that South-Of-The-Highway money has influenced town government to the point that the public’s rights to beach access and the long-term health of our waterways have been compromised, and the roles of our Town Trustees minimized. In East Hampton, three Democrats seek reelection: Supervisor Larry Cantwell, Councilwomen Sylvia Overby and Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc. With its overwhelming voting base the Democrats seemed a sure bet just a few months ago, but unrest in Springs over the illegal housing problem, and in Montauk, where the hamlet has become Party Central, leaves the door ajar for the Republicans. In Riverhead, popular incumbent Sean Walter, abandoned by his own party, looms nonetheless in what is shaping up as a donnybrook. Councilwoman Jodi Giglio, who helped mastermind the coup that ousted Walter, heads the Republican slate. A united Democratic slate headed by town supervisor candidate Anthony Coates, along with Town Board candidates Neil Krupnick and Laura Jens-Smith has its sights on town hall. Scott Russell, the popular Southold Town Supervisor, seems to have a lock on that seat, though voters on the North Fork are a fiercely independent bunch and have been known to buck the trend many times. Damon Rallis will run for the top spot of the Democratic Party line. On Shelter Island Art Williams (R) has thrown his hat in the ring to challenge Supervisor Jim Dougherty (D). Regionally, the biggest issue is water quality, and it is apparent now thousands of cesspool systems must be upgraded or relocated if our bays and drinking water are to survive. Beginning this week The Independent will provide a listing of “Meet The Candidates” appearances, fundraisers, debates and press briefs in our On The Trail column. More candidates will emerge as primaries are decided. Stay tuned. Candidates are invited to submit news, take advantage of our letters page and send in profiles and pictures. We will be setting up in-person interviews in as many races as possible. These are critical times: we urge voters to choose the best candidates regardless of party affiliation.

Is that not considered public service? The only difference I see is that they are paid and I am not. I am dedicated to the community and will pay close attention to the citizens when they speak. I’ll listen to the people who are experts in their field. I grew up in this town, raised my family here and own a business. I will treat everyone as I treat my customers, and that is with respect.

What Was Intended? Dear Rick, Recently, a former baseball pitcher and now sports analyst for ESPN, Curt Schilling, was suspended for posting a tweet for which he later apologized stating that the post, “didn’t come across in any way as intended.” Whatever was the intent only Mr. Schilling can answer. However his tweet does tweak a query. It stated, “Only five-10 percent of Muslims are extremists. In 1940, only seven percent of Germans were Nazis. How’d that go? Observation or insinuation? Ugly as the analogy may be it does beg a question. If the vast and overwhelming majority of a people, whether it be nationality, race, religious sect or any other cult, witness extremists within their own, committing acts of indescribable violence and do nothing about it, does that suggest that they are at best, or at
least complicit and indeed support the actions? If 93 percent of Germans were not Nazis how could the holocaust have happened? Similarly, if only five-10 percent of Muslims are terrorists, killing even their very own, where are the 90-95 percent of Muslims to deter them? One cannot help but conclude that possibly by their silence, they voice their innate approval. Perhaps not a very politically correct conclusion but the enigma lingers. Or perhaps as Mr. Schilling stated, my musing does “not come across in any way as was intended.” NICHOLAS ZIZELIS
Wild Turkey Dear Rick, Think Montauk is a safe place? Think deer are the problem here? Well, let me tell you about my morning today. I was doing my “round the golf course” walk. Approaching a wooded section, I noticed a bike rider coming down the road. And, Continued on Page 32.

The board made a commitment to make all the data from the summer available, and hold at least one public meeting to release the information, Cantwell reminded. Once all the data is pulled together, the board will review it, evaluate action taken to date and consider other options.

Bob and Lee Woodruff hosted Hamptons Stands for Heroes, which celebrated the work of the Bob Woodruff Foundation on Friday, August 28, at the home of Joan and George Hornig. Notable attendees included Lee Woodruff, Joan and George Hornig, James Lipton, Jane Hanson, Chris Cuomo, Cristina Cuomo, Gerry and Liz Byrne, Anna Throne-Holst, Adam Sikora, Robbie Browne, Yolanda Garretti, William Kehler, and Mack Woodruff. All of the proceeds of the night will go to the Bob Woodruff Foundation, which was founded by ABC News Correspondent Bob Woodruff and his wife Lee after Bob was hit by a roadside bomb while covering the war in Iraq in January 2006. The then co-anchor of “World News Tonight” was given access to all of the proper treatment enabling him to fully recover from the traumatic brain injury he received within 13 months. Their experiences inspired them to help make sure our nation’s heroes have access to the resources they deserve, for as long as they need them.

Rep Roundup Continued from page 14.
The SERVES program will recruit first responders by providing each fire department with the tools to conduct advertising and public relations campaigns, concentrating on recruiting minorities and women. With this federal funding, Suffolk County plans to place an additional 1900 recruits over the next four year. “I am proud to join with Reps. Israel and King to announce the award of SAFER grants for Suffolk County, which will provide critical funding for fire departments and emergency first responders on Long Island to keep these brave men and women safe,” said Zeldin. “We must continue to support our firefighters and EMS, who put the needs of our community before their own. It is also critically important to ensure
THE INDEPENDENT • Traveler Watchman
they have access to the resources needed to recruit and retain new members.” “Suffolk County continues to be proactive in ensuring the safety and well-being of our residents, and providing our volunteer firefighters with the necessary resources in order to do their jobs effectively is one of the ways to achieve this goal,” said Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone. “Through the SAFER program, we will be able to enhance recruitment services and continue to attract the best and brightest men and women who want to serve our communities – which will help to decrease overall response times.” This grant was awarded as part of the FY2014 SAFER grant program, which will award approximately $340 million to fire departments nationwide. Awarded directly to fire departments, the SAFER grant helps increase the number of

Supporting VA Accountability In session earlier this summer, Congressman Zeldin, member of the House Veterans Affairs Committee, the Subcommittee on Disability Assistance and Memorial Affairs and the Subcommittee on Economic Opportunity, voted for The VA Accountability Act of 2015 (H.R. 1994), legislation that he cosponsors, which passed the House of Representatives on July 29 by a vote of 256 to 170. The VA Accountability Act makes commonsense reforms

to the Department of Veterans Affairs. The legislation would provide the Secretar y of the Department of Veterans Affairs with the authority to remove a VA employee based on misconduct. Among other aspects of the bill, the legislation also establishes an 18-month probationary period for new employees and further protects whistleblowers, ensuring those who come forward about wrongdoings will be protected. Congressman Zeldin said, “One of my top priorities in Congress is fighting for our veterans who fought for us, which is why I was proud to cosponsor and support the VA Accountability Act. I believe that 99 percent of VA employees genuinely care about the work they do and want to help veterans. This bill would ensure that the other one percent of those who are not acting in the best interest of veterans are held accountable.” It was just recently reported that only three employees involved in the Phoenix VA scandal, which could have led to the deaths of up to 40 veterans, were held accountable for their role in the manipulation of wait times and secret wait lists. At the Denver VA hospital construction site, the project is now several hundred million dollars over budget, and no employees have been held accountable. “This legislation makes important reforms to the VA system, which will provide the necessary resources and flexibility the VA system administration needs to hold poor performing employees accountable,” continued Congressman Zeldin. “Reforming our VA system is essential to protecting our veterans, and improving their quality of life and care.”

has lived in Hampton Bays since the 1870’s. “Skidmore’s roots are not just planted in the sandy loam of this town,” committee members state, “They run deep in the fabric of Hampton Bay’s history.” A team player in high school, the year he graduated the high school athletic director asked Skidmore to create and manage a summer baseball team. That was 1953, and Skidmore has supported the Hampton Bays Little League ever since. George Skidmore Sports was a natural for this team player and today is inseparable from George Skidmore: as he has served the needs of the community, so has his sporting goods store, committee members say. Originally a family run blacksmith shop, Skidmore integrated his sporting goods shop into the life of Hampton Bays, as a wall of plaques’ and commendations will attest. Today, Skidmore’s life and values remain committed to the wellbeing of Hampton Bays and the community’s youth. He serves as a member of many boards that are integral in Hampton Bays continued successes. “Hampton Bay’s is pleased to induct George Skidmore as an inaugural member of the Hampton Bay’s Hall of Fame,” the release declares. The honors dinner will be held at Oakland’s on Dune Road near the Shinnecock inlet, tomorrow from 6 to 9 PM. The cost for dinner and cocktails is $65 per person. Community members are invited to be a part of this inaugural event in the history of Hampton Bays. Proceeds will benefit the Committee to Explore the Incorporation of Hampton Bays.

Play Bridge This hand was played recently at the Water Mill Bridge Club. I sat North and my partner, Larry Hillel, became declarer at a small slam in spades. Larry, who plays hands very well, knew that the key suit to making the slam was hearts. He could afford to lose only one trick, the ace of hearts. He had to hope that the ace of hearts was in the East hand. After winning the opening trump lead, Larry drew trumps and went to dummy with a diamond. Next he led

not crazy for Montauk, I also noticed two wild turkeys walking across the road. Much to my surprise, the turkeys started to trot towards the man who began to pedal a bit faster. As he passed me, the turkeys spied me, changed course and came towards me, one making menacing motions towards me. I shooed him away, but he didn’t listen! He proceeded to come even closer, bobbing his head forward towards my legs and hands. I turned away trying to run, but he proceeded to chase me. I started wondering what kind of shot do you get for a turkey bite! So, I started yelling, help, help, to anyone who could hear. The bike rider returned to help, and luckily the turkeys then moved into the woods. I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving dinner for revenge. Hmmm, with mashed potatoes, cranberries and gravy.

in 1974, ARF is the leading nokill animal adoption center on the East End on Long Island. The ARF Adoption Center located in Wainscott is open every day from 11 AM to 4 PM.

The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons, Inc. (ARF) announced this week that staff memebers were traveling to South Carolina to rescue 46 dogs that were on the verge of euthanasia. It’s largest transport to date, officials said. ARF has two vans on the road headed down south. The hope is to save the animals by bringing them up to the ARF wainscot facility and then to find them permanent homes for them. Last week ARF received word from a concerned volunteer in South Carolina that an area shelter was closing its doors for good, and that all the animals at the shelter would be euthanized immediately. ARF was currently scheduled to rescue 23 dogs from the area, but once ARF’s Senior Director of Operations & Partnership Programs, Michele Forrester, got wind of the dire situation she decided to act. “We can’t let this happen,” she told staffers. She immediately arranged to take another 23 dogs and prepped a second vehicle to make the trip. The dogs from the scheduled rescue are currently living with foster families while the other half will be pulled directly from the closing shelter. Once the dogs arrive at the Adoption Center in Wainscott, all will be examined by ARF’s full time Veterinarian Dr. Sarah Alward. Within a few days of their arrival, all animals will be spayed/neutered, micro chipped and brought up to date on their vaccines. Once medically cleared, the dogs will be available for adoption. To date this year ARF has rescued over 250 animals from South Carolina and has eight more rescues planned for 2015. The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons mission is to actively rescue cats and dogs, provide quality care and sanctuary until loving homes can be found. Founded

Coast Guard Auxiliary News By Vincent Pica
Commodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard
Mal de Mer – Oh My Aching Stomach!
As an avid student of the sea, I am always amazed when I read that even some of the ‘round the world sailors get “mal de mer” – sea sickness. While they get over it in a few days, which everyone will if they are just out there long enough, I wonder how they can put to sea knowing with certainty that they will be sick as dogs for two or three days.
What Causes Seasickness? Seasickness starts in your inner ear. It is caused by the rocking of the boat and, from my own observations, I believe that each boat has a certain rocking motion that is unique to itself and that each sailor has a unique tendency versus that. I have seen sailors on multiple configurations of boats, multiple sizes and various sea-states who get seasick without any predictability versus these mixes. Of course, there is the person who gets seasick at the dock as they get out of the car. While they are genuinely sick, they are not sick from the motion. They are sick from “e-motion.” They are convinced that they will get sick. They fear that. They get sick as soon as they slam the car door shut. I know of one sailor who only gets seasick in the English Channel. The first time he was there was during the Normandy Invasion and he crossed it sitting with plenty of other soldiers also getting seasick all over each other. To the sailor who gets chronic seasickness, it is like being in a cold, wet, rolling jail cell – plus the chance of drowning is never too far away, at least in their minds. How Can I Stop It? First, don’t get seasick. This means keeping your eye on the horizon as best you can. Watching the boat itself rock around is like reading in a car. It is going to cause problems because your mind and inner ear can’t process all those rapid little motions. If you start to get the least bit queasy, stand up or lie down – but get out of that chair. Having your innards pressing on your stomach, which is reacting to the signals from your inner ear, is a recipe for projectile emissions. Second, if someone around you starts to turn green, get away “at speed.” If it is your wife, throw her a bucket and your best wishes.* You will rapidly follow the leader if you don’t. Resist the temptation to have them or yourself avail yourself of the “puke deck,” i.e., evacuating over-board. Your internal balance system is shot. One bad jibe by the boat and you will be following your lunch into the drink.
Be aware of this. If you have gotten seasick, and you haven’t started preventative measures the night before you set sail, pray that you can fall asleep. There is nothing you can do if you haven’t started preventative measures well prior, other than letting nature take its course.
How Do I Prevent It? There are plenty of over-thecounter remedies (and I use remedies with a small ‘r’ because, for some people, they are just palliatives, not fixes) that come in pill or patch form - Dramamine, Marezine, Bonine,
www.indyeastend.com
Scapolamine (ear patches), etc. If you are going to try one, you might want to start with Marezine, since it is the least likely to cause drowsiness. Scapolamine is probably the most effective and its effects also last the longest, about 72 hours. It can have some strange side effects, however, and requires a doctor’s prescription. Phenergan, a suppository, can also be purchased over the counter. A natural aid is ginger. You can stock up at the Japanese restaurant or just buy the tablets (or the cookies.) Many people swear by it and I have seen it work with my kids. But start the night before. One of the more esoteric types of remedies is the wrist band. It is supposed to work on your acupuncture point that is about an inch and a half above your inner wrist. Hey, if it works for you, use it. I am not a doctor. I am a sailor

and a keen observer of the obvious – if it works for you, use it because seasickness is really a malady. Oh, the asterisk (*) above . . . One day a few years back, when transiting through the Montauk Rips with a goodly number of friends and family aboard, everyone (‘cept me of course) got seasick, including my wife, Jo, and my young daughter, Mariel.

Charles Manning Leaving Bees By Rick Murphy
Bridgehampton Killer Bees fans are in mourning this week after word seeped out that All-State basketball phenom Charles Manning Jr. is leaving the school. Manning will play at Long Island Lutheran (LuHi) in Brookville, a nationally-known basketball powerhouse noted for sending its players to high-profile colleges. ”It’s a good move for him,” said John Buck, the LuHi head coach. “The thing that stands out is he is 16 as he enters his senior year. He has a very high ceiling.” “It’s a great move,” echoed Carl Johnson, the Bees’ veteran mentor. “If I teach my kids to be unselfish, then we have to be unselfish.” Bridgehampton shares the record for most New York State championships with Mount Vernon, each with nine. Johnson has been a part of seven, three as a player. Bridgehampton won the Class D state title in March, and Manning was the tournament’s high scorer and Most Valuable Player. With the entire team returning, the Bees were odds on to take the 2016 trophy as well. As it stands, every player on the team will be returning – except Manning. Coach Buck played his collegiate ball at Wake Forest University.
There, he teamed with NBA All-Star Chris Paul and was voted captain during his senior season. He said “family members” of the young star “reached out to him.” Johnson said Manning was playing AAU ball. “He’s had a really good summer. In the BCANY Tournament in Buffalo he played against a powerhouse team and scored 22.” At the same time, Johnson said, he knew “Lutheran was looking for players. They discovered what we already knew: Charles is a great player.” Numerous Lutheran alumni have gone on to play professional sports including Reggie Carter, who starred at St. John’s University and later with the New York Knicks, and Bill Wennington, another St. John’s alumnus who played in the NBA for several teams including the Chicago Bulls. Buck said the details of Manning’s transfer are “still being worked out” but “there is transportation set up” should the youngster chose to continue to live in Bridgehampton. The Bees play in Suffolk’s League VIII – its weakest and smallest enrollment league - and Manning dominated the opposition last season. Lutheran will test the six-foot-five-inch guard/forward with a grinding schedule that

Charles Manning Jr., left, will play for Lutheran High, a national powerhouse, in his senior year.
includes a tournament in Charlotte in late December, the Big Apple Invitational, and games against perennial powerhouses including Cardinal Hayes, Cordoza, and Christ The King. Manning played for Riverhead High School as a sophomore and transferred to Bridgehampton his junior year to live with his father, Charles Maurice “Mo” Manning, who led Bridgehampton to three consecutive state titles. In fact, the Mannings are the only father/son team to both win a state tournament MVP award. Mo Manning took some detours but eventually returned to the court to lead Richie Wrase’s Suffolk Community College to an undefeated season and a national championship in 2003.
The younger Manning’s defining games came in the 2015 State Class D Tournament in Glens Falls. The Bees, tested by undefeated Moriah in the semifinal game, were down by 11 points in the third quarter when Coach Johnson signaled for a trapping threequarter zone press. Manning turned into a human highlight reel, again and again flicking the ball away from the Moriah ball handlers. The turnaround was so sudden, and so complete, that the Bees had a 20-point lead within minutes. The final score was 68-50: Manning scored 29 points and recorded nine steals. The next day, in the finale against defending champion New York Mills, Manning was even better, taking over the game in the second half and drawing a deafening roar from the sellout crowd with a breathtaking fourth quarter one-handed alley-oop dunk. “We gave up 31 points to one player [Manning],” opposing coach Mike Adey lamented afterwards. “We’ve never done that before.” Manning’s performance on the big stage aroused the interest of numerous college basketball programs, with Stony Brook being the most aggressive. Playing at Lutheran undoubtedly opens a lot more doors. “There are going to be plenty of colleges looking at him,” Buck said. “All he needs is not to get gun shy, to go up there and play his game,” Johnson said. With or without Manning, Johnson has his heart set on another title run. “If we stay together, and if we don’t get hurt, we’ll be up there,” he said.

FANTASY SP By Skippy Brown
THE INDEPENDENT • Traveler Watchman
RTS
Start ‘Em Or Sit ‘Em? The season begins tomorrow night. Whether you are playing in traditional season-long leagues or DFS leagues, where you pick a whole new team every week. Either way, two rules hold true: In DFS you need your highsalaried players to perform up to expectations, and you need to identify cheaper players primed for a big week. In traditional leagues, you need your top picks to come through and a few of your late picks – sleepers to put up some numbers. It’s surprising that a lot of fantasy players still don’t understand the dynamics of the Vegas line. Yes, big favorites tend to run the ball more because they figure to be ahead in the second half and want to burn off the clock. Far more indicative, though, is the Under/Over, which is a forecast of how many points two teams playing each other will score. Obviously, the more points put on the board, the better for fantasy players. If you don’t know this, you probably are starting off your season-long teams with a big disadvantage: we took pains to draft a lot of Eagles, Packers, Cowboys and Colts because those teams figure to put up the most points. The beauty of DFS leagues is you can target the teams that figure to score a lot each week. Let’s tale a look at Week One: Philadelphia and Atlanta: The O/U line is 53.5. To us that means Philadelphia’s two new stars, Sam Bradford (QB) and DeMarco Murray (RB), are primed for big games; ditto Julio Jones (WR) and Matty Ice (QB) for the Falcons. Among the mid-tier players who we think will perform well are wide receivers Jordan Matthews and the rookie Nelson Agholor; a cheap option at Tight End is Zach Ertz. The Giants play at Dallas, and the O/U is 51.5. First of all, be very careful to NEVER bet with your heart, that’s a sucker’s play. That means if you are a Giants fan, don’t be deluded -- Dallas figures to romp. We love Dez Bryant, the Cowboys’ explosive wide receiver; The Giants have no one to cover him. Both Dallas running backs figure to get the ball a lot - Joseph Randle and Darren McFadden. We are very high on the Giants’ Reuben Randle (WR). Eli Manning figures to throw a lot, and with Victor Cruz hurting
and Odell Beckham Jr. doubleteamed Randle figures to get a lot of targets. Speaking of Eli, he figures to put up a lot of yards – and, he is likely to throw a couple interceptions, if not more. Check the scoring in your league. If interceptions are penalized, you might want to leave Eli on your bench. It is important to note the season begins tomorrow night when Pittsburgh travels to New England. That game figures to produce a lot of points, so make sure you set

your lineups in time to grab a few players from this game. In DFS, many of the contests begin Thursday night. You might want to grab Tom Brady, who is priced cheaply on a lot of sites. After sidestepping a four game suspension, playing in front of an adoring crowd against one of the leagues worst defenses, Brady figures to light it up. That means The Gronk is a must play at tight end. It’s hard to say which other New England players will emerge, because Coach Bill Belicheck plays a lot of mix and match. Big Ben figures to throw the ball a ton for the Steelers, and that means Antonio Bell will catch a lot of passes. Green Bay and Chicago (50), and Baltimore and Denver (49.5) all have attractive fantasy options.

Aaron Rodgers (QB) and Eddie Lacey (WR) are no brainers for Green Bay; Davante Adams (WR) is a bargain now that Jordy Nelson has gone down to injury for The Packers. Chicago’s receiving corps has been hit hard by injuries, which makes Martellus Bennett a good play at tight end. We love Miami’s chances this week, since the Dolphins play Washington, a team torn apart by dissension. Look for running back Lamar Miller, WR Jarvis Landy and QB Ryan Tannehill to all have signature games. Want a deep, deep sleeper? Devin Punchess (WR) will be called on to help fill the void left in Carolina when Kelvin Benjamin went down. Remember to check for injuries right up until game time; Stephania Bell (ESPN) is an excellent source and she tweets frequently.
