Just Soaking It At Indy

By Kitty Merrill

James Quackenbush of East Hampton used a dump truck to take his icy shower. The staff at Swallow East in Montauk stood on the docks Sunday night accepting the chilly challenge from Gosman’s then, challenging the staff at the Sloppy Tuna. Ross School had its participants, as did Topping Rose in Bridgehampton. Joi Jackson Perle, the Amagansett Chamber of Commerce executive director filled two buckets in answer to a dual call out. And Indy’s own culture queen and production goddess Jessica Mackin used a cup.

Wait. What? It’s not the ice cup challenge. It’s the ice bucket challenge and it’s crashing across the country and the East End like a tidal wave.

Three weeks strong with no sign of drying up, the social media phenom was conceived to raise money for and awareness of ALS. “We have never seen anything like this in the history of the disease,” said Barbara Newhouse, President and CEO of The ALS Association in a statement on the

organization’s website. “We couldn’t be more thrilled with the level of compassion, generosity and sense of humor that people are exhibiting as they take part in this impactful viral initiative.”

Also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord.

Progressive degeneration of the motor neurons affects the ability of the brain to initiate and control muscle movement. With voluntary muscle action progressively affected, patients in the later stages of the disease may become totally paralyzed. There is no cure or treatment that halts the progression of the disease.

Buckets At Sunrise?

“Let’s all do it at sunrise and challenge The East Hampton Star!”

That was the nature of the talk in the Indy office as preparations were underway for Jessica’s challenge redo -- with a BIG bucket this time -- on Monday.

But it doesn’t work that way -thankfully, some thought.

Independent/ James J. Mackin

With an evil grin and a diabolical giggle Emily Toy douses Jessica Mackin with a bucket filled with ice water in the Red Horse courtyard Monday.

Participants are challenged by friends to dump buckets of ice water over their heads to raise awareness of the fight against ALS. Dump the water within 24 hours or donate $100 to The ALS Society.

Then call out three friends to take the challenge. The challenge includes crafting a video describing what you’re doing, and why, and posting it on a social media site like Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram.

Jessica was called out by buddy Kayla Talmage of Hampton Bays.

She called out her sister Jenna who completed the challenge on a boat ending it with a dramatic splash overboard.

Not everyone has embraced the challenge. In an August 7 blog, Huffington Post contributor Ben Kosinski criticized it as an example of “slacktivism” – participating in a stunt or sharing a post for a charity rather than actually giving money

to it. He lauded the tremendous job the ice bucket challenge has done getting people to talk about ALS, but added “that’s mostly all it’s done – get people to talk.” Imagine if people sent the money they spend on a bag of ice to The ALS Society, he posited.

It appears they are doing that and much, much more. The challenge related to ALS began on July 29. As of last Saturday, donations to the society hit an unprecedented $11.4 million. That’s $10 million more than the organization collected during the same timeframe last year. The donations came from existing donors as well as 220,255 new donors to the Society, according to the ALS Society website.

“Words cannot express how incredibly grateful we are to the tens of thousands of people who have donated to support the fight Continued on Page 35.

CONEY ISLAND When it comes to beaches, nothing compares to the Hamptons.

Malibu? It’s a puny strip of sand.

Cannes? Great for bare boobs, but it’s a tiny overrated beach.

Miami? Fake people stretched out on fake sand.

I never get tired of looking at one of our beautiful beaches. And when I stare and look at it long enough, I always think back to what used to be. And what used to be, for me, was Coney Island.

In the summer my mom would take my little brother and me to Coney Island just about every day.

For me, it was like traveling to Oz. When you walked off the subway, some incredible smells fought with each other to get into your nose.

The first was the smell of raw clams being squirted with lemon. And then there was the smell of ice-cold beer foaming up and out of the glass in the clam bar that was in the

promenade of the subway terminal.

As you walked across the street you smelled the sweetness of cotton candy, and two seconds later you smelled the garlic and spices of those sizzling Nathan’s hot dogs that made your mouth water. By the time you got to the boardwalk, you were starving and reaching in your bag of homemade sandwiches to sneak a bite.

You could get to the beach by walking onto the boardwalk or under it. (A few years later the Drifters would tell the world about the wonders that could be found “Under the Boardwalk.”) Walking under was the faster way to get onto the beach and that’s the way you always went. You braved the cold clammy sand that hadn’t felt the sunlight in years. You gingerly stepped over (while still managing to sneak a peek at) the teenage couples who were passionately

REAL ESTATE

ARTS & ENTERTAINMENT

“making out” on the blankets in the dim semi-privacy that could only be found under the boardwalk. Even though I was only 9 or 10 years old I remember looking at them in a clinch, with their lips locked to each other, and thinking it looked like a lot of fun.

The walk on the beach was a joke. There seemed to be millions of people on the beach; consequently, there was no beach. We stepped on one beach blanket after another.

Finally, my mom staked out a claim and we parked our blanket, touching four other blankets, and rushed to the water.

To be honest, the water in Coney Island was just slightly cleaner than the Ganges in India. Every time there is an oil spill disaster it triggers a sense memory that I hadn’t thought about in so many years. For years after World War II, the water in Coney Island was filled with oil chunks that blackened our feet. I remember my father telling me that it probably came from one of the ships that had been blown up nearby during the war. I remember

IN THE NEWS

wondering if it was one of ours or one of theirs.

But now the smell in the air was suntan oil, and as a kid I remember staying in the water for hours to fight the waves. Invariably, my mother would call me in because “your lips are turning blue.” She never came into the water. She just joined all the other mothers who were standing on the shore on “blue lip patrol.” When the time came to go home, I always begged for another half-hour. They always gave it to me.

Summer is so much longer when you’re young.

I want my kids and grandkids to know about my Coney Island.

Every time I start to tell them I keep remembering my favorite line in any movie, from Atlantic City: A very old Burt Lancaster is trying to impress a very young Susan Sarandon. They’re looking at the Atlantic Ocean. She says, “It’s very beautiful.” He says, “Yes.” Then he looks at her and says, “But this is nothing. You should have seen it in the old days.”

Southampton School District

Parent Not Thrilled About Extended Hours

By Rick Murphy

Some school board members crowed when Southampton School District was “awarded” a “competitive” grant that could mean an extra $2.5 million in school coffers.

The Extended Learning Time (ELT) Grant Program provides funding to school districts operating independently or in collaboration with not-for-profit community based organizations (CBOs) to increase school-wide learning opportunities.

Here’s the rub, say parents opposed to the implementation of the grant – it mandates that the student school day be extended for over 100 minutes a day. That means Elementary and Intermediate School children will have to be in school at 7:15 AM if the program is implemented. Parents, who were not consulted about the ELT, are distributing a protest petition. It reads: “Refuse The Extended Learning Time Grant Program for the Southampton Union Free School District. Do NOT mandate 103-108

minutes of extra school time per day for all children to meet the needs of a few. Allow parents to choose how to voluntarily spend their quality family time.”

L o r e l l Tu t t i s o n e p a r e n t concerned about the ELT. So far only nine school districts across the state have signed on, though 25 originally applied. No other district on Long Island it taking part.

“We as concerned parents are very concerned about the approved Extended Learning Time Grant Program. This program would mandate, without any parental in-put or opt-out availability, that our children remain in school for an additional 103 minutes/day in the Intermediate School and an additional 108 minutes/day in the Elementary School,” Tutt wrote to parents seeking their input.

“This puts unreasonable demands upon our children (physically, mentally and emotionally) and robs the family unit of quality family time.”

Tutt said having earlier arrival times and later departure times

NOT TOO IMPRESSED WITH YOUR SANITATION SERVICE? Emil Norsic & Son has been delivering quality and reliability on the East End since 1932.

would impact not only the students but also the community. “This program would negatively affect community based businesses that cater to children and families and infringe on time that would be used for after school activities, including sports, music, and religious education.”

The ELT is an outgrowth of a federal program that supplies funding to the states. The extra money is often spent on programs that pair the school districts with outside contractors. Southampton parents said they have been given no indication how the money will be spent or who the beneficiaries will be.

According to an article in Business Week earlier this month the concept of extending school hours for grant money hasn’t been a popular one.

“The U.S. Department of Education needs to do a better job of making sure that the performance of contractors hired through the School Improvement Grant program is reviewed, and of making sure states have the information they need to make grant renewal decisions.” In fact, 26 states told the GAO they didn’t think that

they would be able to sustain the program’s extended learning time requirement after the school year ends, compared with 10 that said they’d probably be able to keep it going.

Officials in New Haven, CT schools scrapped the longer day one year after implementing a similar program. “The experiment had exhausted students and teachers without making progress towards its goal: closing the achievement gap between her largely poor and minority students . . .” according to the New Haven Independent.

“Simply adding time is not enough to raise student performance,” one school official said.

Neither School Superintendent Scott Farina nor Assistant Superintendent Nicholas Dyno returned phone calls or emails by press time to comment. Parents said both favored and pushed for the grant.

ELT differs from after-school programs in that all students – in this case the Elementary and Intermediate Schools – will have to attend.

Ironically, it was established for distressed schools in high-poverty areas, though Southampton is one of the wealthiest districts in the state.

To Discuss Long Range Plan

By Kitty Merrill

Next Tuesday officials from PSEG and the New York State Department of Public Service will hold public hearings at two East End venues.

DPS is seeking public comment on PSEG’s Long Range Plan.

An information session will be held prior to the public portion.

One hearing is set for the legislative auditorium in the county center in Riverhead at 10:30 AM and another will be held in East Hampton, at the Emergency Services Building on Cedar Street, beginning at 5 PM. Earlier this summer East Hampton officials urged PSEG to

hold hearings locally. Two reasons spurred the request. First off, the document notes substantial expenditures ($294 million) for a variety of programs and projects on the South Fork in the coming years. It identifies the East End as “the highest load growth region on Long Island.”

The second reason is likely to prompt the most comment.

It’s certainly prompted the most passion from folks who live along the path of a transmission line project that began last winter and saw giant new poles pop up on village streets and along a route

THE BODY

through East Hampton to the Amagansett substation.

Save East Hampton formed not long after the pole project began. The organization sent out an email blitz notifying people of the opportunity to speak to PSEG and DPS about the “monster” utility poles and high-tension lines in residential neighborhoods and scenic areas in town.

The group’s release also speaks of “the next big storm” predicting it will cause damage and failure of the new aboveground transmission line and loss of power across the East End.

While PSEG maintains the new line was installed to offer more storm resilience, Save East Hampton contends the lines must be buried to provide maximum protection against storm outages.

Since the project began, Save East Hampton and the group Long Island Businesses For Responsible Energy have lobbied for the removal of the giant poles and the burial of the lines. PSEG has been amenable to undoing the project and starting over, but only if East Hampton ratepayers cover the entire cost . . . and that’s where the impasse is as of press time.

TROs And BBCs

By Kitty Merrill

Better head out to Cyril’s soon, if you want to have one of their famed BBCs. If the Town of East Hampton and the State Liquor Authority have their way, drinks at Cyril’s could be on ice for a while.

Last week SLA officials voted to cancel Cyril’s liquor license. There’s an appeals process, so staff can continue to serve drinks for a bit.

Maintaining a disorderly premises and failure to address a variety of town zoning code violations were cited as reasons for the decision.

For several years now, town officials have been stymied in their effort to quell weekend hubbub at the Amagansett watering hole.

Hundreds of revelers congregated at the outside bar, their numbers often spilling onto busy Montauk Highway. A parking prohibition helped, but just a little.

Cyril’s landlords attempted to reconfigure the layout of the property to ameliorate the zoning violations, but the town board declined to approve a change of zone request necessary to make the scheme viable. The establishment is currently in Justice Court.

Also in Justice Court on Monday were representatives of the Memory Motel in Montauk. They were in State Supreme Court last Thursday, thanks to the town’s request for a Temporary Restraining Order. At issue are an outdoor bar, tables, and a fence used to create a corral for overflow patrons in what was once a parking lot.

The fence concept was actually part of an agreement between police, former super visor Bill McGintee, and the establishment some six or seven years ago.

Since the Memory has operated in its current fashion for an extended period of time, the judge was not inclined to grant the TRO last week, town prosecuting attorney Michael Sendlenski reported. Typically TROs are granted when allowing an establishment to continue operation is a public safety hazard.

“The court struck down the TRO and put the matter over to September to be heard by a new judge. We are grateful for the careful attention Judge Pastoressa gave us on Thursday afternoon,” Tina Piette, attorney for the Memory stated, referencing State Supreme Court Justice Joseph Pastoressa.

In other news of hot topics, Supervisor Larry Cantwell announced a special meeting to hear concerns about the impacts of

air traffic on residents of the North and South Forks. It will be held on August 27 at 6:30 PM at LTV Studios in Wainscott.

In recent years, increased traffic, particularly helicopter traffic has prompted impassioned complaints from residents, many of whom say their quality of life has been shattered by the unrelenting noise from aircraft. Attempts to change approved routes for the traffic have done little more than shift the racket from one neighborhood to another.

Important news: Tomosynthesis with digital mammography yields better cancer detection rates.

Independent / BTS

An SUV slammed into a utility pole on Sagg Road in Sagaponack North on Friday. The condition of the driver could not be ascertained by press time.

Tomosynthesis right here at Southampton Hospital

A groundbreaking study proves Tomosynthesis (3D imaging) coupled with digital mammography increases cancer detection rates. It actually provides greater accuracy in pinpointing size, shape and location of abnormalities, and with Tomosynthesis there’s a greater likelihood of identifying additional tumors.

This technology is available at The Ellen Hermanson Breast Center thanks to the generosity of The Ellen Hermanson Foundation. Get state-of-the-art diagnostics and treatment. Call 631-726-8285 to schedule your mammogram.

Windfall For WHB Police Chief

By Rick Murphy

Westhampton Beach bloggers had a field day criticizing newly elected Maria Moore’s request to reinstate her full salary of $25,124 for her position. Moore defeated longtime Mayor Conrad Teller last spring – he had voluntarily cut his salary in half.

But the added $12,000 seems like a mere pittance compared to what retired Police Chief Ray Dean is walking away with.

Dean resigned immediately after Teller’s defeat – and before a new

Village Board led by Moore could address a lavish goodbye kiss for the chief, whose tenure was marred by several scandals.

The New York Post reported Sunday that Dean put in for 531 sick days supposedly accumulated over the course of his 15 years on the job, though one critic lamented that Dean was frequently nowhere to be found during hours he was supposedly on the clock. That meant a one-time check for a whopping $403,714. – and that’s not all.

Dean, 53, has an annual pension of $142,000 a year, thanks to a contract

that totaled over $226,000 in his last year, the Post reported.

A series of incidents marred Dean’s tenure on the job. In 2012 an officer with only 15 years on the job was allowed to resign with full benefits, effectively ending an investigation that followed a 2009 incident involving a missing handgun that triggered an investigation by the county. Earlier this year an officer was suspended for the fourth time in the past eight years after being charged with stalking.

In 2010 it was suggested that f o r m e r S o u t h a m p t o n To w n

S u p e r v i s o r L i n d a Ka b o t w a s targeted by Westhampton Village Police during her re-election bid because she was at odds with the Southampton PBA. Dean’s resignation angered some residents who noted the July 4 weekend is the busiest of the year in the village.

The board approved Dean’s payout and Moore’s salary last week, though Moore’s salary is subject to a permissive referendum.

Moore did not respond to a request for a quote by press time.

Dean could not be reached for comment.

Long Island garnered a basket full of awards and medals at the 2014 New York State Wine & Food Classic, held on August 12 and 13 at the Watkins Glen Harbor Hotel. For the second straight year, a winery from Long Island was named “Winery of the Year:” Macari Vineyards succeeded McCall Vineyards as the 2014 winner of this coveted honor. East End vineyards scored especially high in the competitions.

Of the 835 wines entered in the 2014 competition, local vintners also won Best Sparkling, Best Red, Best Vinifera Sparkling, Best Chardonnay, Best Oaked C h a r d o n n a y, B e s t U n o a k e d Chardonnay, Best Cabernet Franc, Best Merlot, and Best Vinifera Red Blend.

The awards were based on blind tastings by 22 expert judges - four from California, 10 from New York, seven from other states, and one from France.

Judges included prominent wine writers, restaurateurs, retailers, and wine educators. Judging panels determined the initial awards, with top-scoring wines evaluated by all 22 judges for Best of Category and Governor’s Cup awards.

Some of the wines listed will be available Saturday at McCall Vineyards. For information visit www.liwines.com.

SoFo’s Marine Science Summer Program is in full swing this week as the “Sea Bass” group (9 to 11 year olds) prepares to venture off to various marine habitats and interact with nature like never before. This hands-on experience will enable these children to better understand how sensitive and how essential it is to sustain our marine ecosystems.

Led by program directors, Rob and Terri Gelling, one particular habitat the group will interact with this week is the ecologically important salt marsh habitat, one of my favorite places to visit.

Salt marshes are all around us here on the East End and are one of the most important ecosystems on the planet. Located between ocean and bay, this transitional habitat where freshwater mixes with saltwater is a meadow of salttolerant plants known as halophytes which have adapted to water levels that fluctuate with incoming and outgoing tides.

As the tide rises, high water levels carry in nutrients which promote plant growth, especially to the dominant low-marsh plant, smooth cordgrass (Spartina alterniflora).

This plant in particular is responsible for much of the marsh’s productivity as it is able to live where few other plants can survive.

Few animals eat this plant but many marine organisms live on it and utilize it as a nursery habitat to develop through their juvenile stages.

Decaying spartina grass is broken down by microbes forming detritus that fuels the marsh and its animals.

Most of the marsh animals depend directly or indirectly on detritus which is abundant in this habitat.

The variety of snails that live in the salt marsh feed on microscopic algae that cover the marsh surface.

Fiddler crabs ingest mud in order to extract the abundant detritus while ribbed mussels, clams, and oysters are filter feeders that extract detritus from the water column.

All the animals that live in the salt marsh become fair game to higher predators like blue claw crabs, striped bass, fish, and birds such as ospreys and herons.

Salt marshes perform many functions to human beings. As mentioned earlier, they are a major

producer of detritus which provides food for young fish, shellfish and crustaceans that humans rely on for commercial and recreational needs as these fish mature. In addition, salt marshes serve as a natural filtration system breaking down many pollutants into less harmful forms. They also protect us from the velocity of waves during hurricanes and help mitigate storm surges before reaching land.

gays complained, so every third hurricane had a name like Sven or Christophe. Then all the other minorities complained, which culminated in 1996 when Vinnie The Chin Galliapino came ashore in (of course) New Jersey.

Most of the hurricanes we get form, believe it or not, in the Sahara Desert, where they are given names like Oasis, Sahara, and Niles. They move across Africa, where they are re-named Adebowlae or Chibuzo or something like that.

Then they begin to spin counter clockwise as they move toward the Caribbean, where they take a cruise and get a tan before proceeding to the Statue Of Liberty to get their new, American name, though “Tony” is almost always taken by the time they get there.

You should be prepared for the worst when a hurricane is approaching. Be aware you may lose power, so make sure to have plenty of beer on hand. You may not be able to cook, so be sure to have plenty of beer on hand. You may not be able to drive, so make sure you have beer. Get plenty of batteries for your flashlight so you can find the bottle opener (or just get pop-tops).

WARNING: Do not go outside during a hurricane unless you need beer!

Here is a list of proposed names for next year’s hurricanes. Be advised we never, ever get past the letter N, so it is just a matter of time before people start complaining and we start the hurricane season with a storm that begins with Z and work our way back.

EDITORIAL

Why do we think the meeting scheduled to discuss PSEG’s future plans will turn into another bash fest wherein the representatives from the electric company are lambasted over the new, oversized utility poles?

Every time the furor dies down the matter comes to the fore again. The Long Island Businesses For Responsible Energy is suing PSEG and actively petitioning donations to fund its expenses.

LIBFRE is an offshoot of the citizen group Save East Hampton: Safe, Responsible Energy. Like LIBFRE, its calling cards are sensational accusations designed to scare the public and misinformed statements that have little basis in the truth.

Originally the groups were comprised of a lot of folks who had the poles installed in front of their properties, and we certainly empathize with them. No one likes the poles, and in a perfect world we’d all like to see them come down. But there comes a point where the cost of burying the lines is prohibitive.

LIBFRE has refused two requests by The Independent to furnish an accounting of how much money has been collected and spent, and to reveal everyone who has gotten a check from them so far – lawyers, consultants, and PR people included, and that is troubling.

There is reason to suspect if not the motives of LIBFRE, the sloppiness of its efforts thus far. Its initial ads carried the image of a dead tree, the supposed victim of overzealous PSEG branch trimming. But the tree used was fatally damaged during an earlier storm and had nothing at all to do with the PSEG installation.

LIBFRE warned that the new poles couldn’t withstand winds of more than 138 milesper-hour. A spokeswoman repeatedly insisted that the Hurricane of 1938 packed 180 mile per hour winds.

Recently the Save East Hampton group noted there have been 20-25 storms with winds exceeding 138 miles per hour on the Atlantic Coast in the past few years.

For the record, and let’s clarify this once and for all: The Hurricane of 1938, the fiercest ever-recorded on the East End, had gusts that reached 125 mph. There has never been, nor will there ever be a fiercer storm. Meteorologists agree that it is physically impossible for a storm stronger than a Category 3 to reach us. To claim otherwise is a complete red herring. The new, thicker, stronger poles were built to withstand these

Independent

www.indyeastend.com

kinds of winds, yet SEH, remarkably, concluded the new lines are, “More vulnerable to storm damage.” The group then says burying the new lines “Will save millions in construction costs” even though the new poles are in and the project is effectively completed. It’s difficult to take this stuff seriously when these press releases are riddled with nonsense.

The governor’s office has declined to intervene despite LIBFRE’s impassioned requests. The State Public Service Commission reviewed the project and determined it was necessary to ensure the reliability of the electric system. The DEC, DOH and EPA all passed on requests they investigate further. (LIBFRE’s lawsuit against PSEG is so ludicrously over-the-top that the utility’s lawyers had a field day ripping it apart point by point in their rebuttal memorandum.) Clearly, the money collected so far has been wasted. LIBFRE members (and donors) at the very least should reexamine who it is that is calling the shots.

The only way to assure no more power outages occur is to bury every major line -- an undertaking that would be incredibly time consuming, disruptive, and expensive.

The SEH group blithely suggests we undertake this massive chore, apparently with no understanding that PSEG is a public utility and it derives its revenue from its ratepayers.

Its go-to scare tactic goes to the heart of the real problem: the fairy tale mindset that East Hampton is the center of the universe. Put another way, why would PSEG bury only our lines when all of Long Island will clamor for the same treatment?

LIBFRE and local officials complained that the PSEG pole replacement project was undertaken without proper notice. The Independent revealed the project was completely vetted in East Hampton Village before it began, beginning when current East Hampton Town Supervisor Larry Cantwell was the Village Administrator a year before the first pole was sunk. Cantwell developed a convenient case of amnesia.

A public hearing was held on the matter, but few citizens attended. Had they, they would have seen the entire scope of the project laid out in a transparent manner.

The sad fact is the PSEG project needed to be stopped before it began, and it got past East Hampton Village and Town officials with nary a word of protest.

At what point do we stop throwing good money after bad? We need to look ahead to converting to solar and wind generated power. By mid-century the lines will be obsolete anyway.

An earlier suggestion that affected community members voice their concerns to the East Hampton Town Board at its regular meeting tomorrow, the last regular meeting of the summer, prompted East Hampton Supervisor Larry Cantwell to schedule and dedicate a special Town Board meeting to this critical quality of life issue.

Th e B o a rd h a s a t l e a s t n i n e scheduled public hearings that evening, foreshortening the public comment period by however long it will take to air those

matters, which it must do by law, thereby limiting the time the Board has to hear from the public.

Quiet Skies Coalition congratulates the Supervisor for recognizing the importance of this issue and making a special effort for community input. QSC urges all noiseaffected residents to attend this meeting to voice concerns regarding aircraft noise.

KATHLEEN CUNNINGHAM Editors Note: The meeting will be held at LTV Studios in Wainscott.

The Wrong Direction Dear Editor, I am writing as a concerned citizen and member of East End Climate Action Network (eeCAN) for the future of Long Island’s energy needs and the objectionable vision of PSEG Long Island. I was excited to hear the Town of East Hampton’s goals to meet 100 percent of its electricity needs with renewable energy sources by 2020, and all its energy needs by 2030.

I applaud all who worked together to make that happen, for it truly is the smartest thing we can do. It not only helps reduce pollution and CO2 emissions, it also strengthens our local economy. I’ve felt a real sense of Long Island pride and know that this initiative will put us on the map for something other than the attraction of the rich and famous.

But now I find that PSEG is planning to meet our growing electricity demands by installing multiple, polluting fossil fuel power plants in the East Hampton Township.

This is the wrong direction for Long Island and a total insult to us all.

There are many alternatives, like a local developer who has proposed building a battery storage facilities which could provide peak electricity needs without using fossil fuels, or large-scale solar arrays and an offshore wind park. There are also fascinating micro-grid systems that help with storm resiliency and selfsufficiency.

I know that ‘We The People’ of the East End will come together and show PSEG how we can do it the right and true way.

I urge everyone to come on Tuesday 5 PM where PSEG-Long Island is hosting a public hearing in the East Hampton Village Emergency Services Building (1 Cedar St., East Hampton) to discuss its “long range plan” for our town.

DEA MILLION Editor’s Note: PSEG has no plans to install “multiple power plants” in East Hampton.

A Rousing Success Dear Editor, The Noyac Civic Council is grateful that Congressman Tim Bishop addressed the helicopter noise issue at our August 12 meeting.

Rep. Bishop is working together with Senator Charles Schumer to provide relief to all who must endure this irritating noise and impediment to our quality of

JUST ASKING

IN THE NEWS

By Karen Fredericks

Have you participated in the “Ice Bucket Challenge?”

Talia Rosen Two of my friends posted on Instagram and tagged me. I did it on my front porch. It was cold! And then I challenged two of my friends.

And you get twenty-four hours to accept the challenge. So I don’t know if they did it yet.

Sean Persson I have friends that were challenged. I saw their pictures on Instagram and Vines. When I saw the pictures they looked pretty shocked by the cold. I would do it if someone challenged me.

I’d try to get sponsors and raise some money for research.

Ethan Rosen I was challenged by four friends. I accepted the challenge right away and I put pictures on Facebook. It wasn’t actually that bad dumping the icewater on my head. I thought it would be worse. I just said I’m going to do it fast and get it over with.

Charlotte Keany (left) My friend challenged me on Instagram. I did it in my backyard. Oh boy!

It was so cold when the water came out of the bucket! Then I challenged my friend Annabelle.

Annabelle Caime (right) It was really cold! I was screaming and laughing at the same time!

But I’m glad I did it.

Letters & Obit Policy

The Independent publishes all letters to the editor we receive provided they are not libelous and emailed to news@indyeastend. com. We strive to print all obituaries as well but in the event we can’t, they will be published online at www.indyeastend.com. Please try to keep copy under 500 words.

life. Senator Schumer’s assistant, Kyle Stroeber, was also there to provide additional information from Senator Schumer.

The meeting was a rousing success.

These elected officials and their assistants must be thanked for answering our pleas for relief: Congressman Tim Bishop, Senator Schumer’s assistant, Kyle Stroeber, NYS Assemblyman Fred Thiele, Jr., Suffolk County Legislator Al Krupski’s assistant John Stype; Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst, Councilman Brad Bender, Councilwoman Bridget Fleming, Councilwoman Christine Scalera; North Haven Mayor Jeff Sander and Trustee Tommy John Schiavoni; Shelter Island Supervisor Jim Doughtery; Southampton’s representatives on the East Hampton’s Noise Abatement Committee, representatives Barry Holden, a Noyac resident, and Bob Malafronte, who is President of the Sag Harbor CAC. Barry and Bob have been working with

the Noyac Civic Council for two years on forming this coalition of these various communities. Most of all, the 153 attendees and the Quiet Skies Coalition must be thanked for speaking out on this issue.

We are resolute in wanting relief from the drone of helicopters. We will not stop attending meetings, contacting officials, and rallying until this negative impact stops. We feel strongly that we finally made an impression on the seven FAA officials from the New York region who attended.

Hopefully they will carry our message to the acting head of the FAA, Michael Huerta, who was invited but did not attend this meeting.

The Noyac Civic Council is the chief advocate for the Noyac community and for much of the East End on this issue.

I urge all Noyac residents join the NCC and become informed on the issues that impact our lives.

On a recent Saturday in July, while visiting the Animal Rescue Fund adoption center in Wainscott, Indy cartoonist Karen Fredericks went into sudden labor. Assisted by several ARF staff members, Coco Belle was delivered, weighing seven pounds, two ounces. Pictured here, Karen, Coco Belle and the proud new father, Indy Editor In Chief Rick Murphy. The new family is doing splendidly.

Getting The Ax Letter to the Editor, The Department of Defense sent out separation notices to 1200 Army captains, including 48 deployed to Afghanistan. They received eight to nine months of notice so they could prepare for civilian life. What good is the notice for the captains deployed to Iraq for the next eight or nine months?

How will this affect their performance in a war zone?

The next group to get the ax will be majors, and I can only assume this will

Your ad also appears on our website in our continue up the line to officers who have not served the 20 years needed to retire and receive their retirement benefits.

The separations are part of the force reductions necessitated by the sequestration defense cuts. The projected savings in defense spending across all branches of the service will be $3.5 billion over five years.

Our foreign aid is $37 billion annually.

If we cut it by two percent, or $0.74 billion per year, we will save $3.7 billion over five years, and not have to cut our military forces. Surely, with some rational thinking, we can squeeze two percent out of the foreign aid budget without jeopardizing our interests overseas, which will allow us to maintain our current force levels and enhance our national security.

PETS

URGENT Please help. Can’t keep Max at the Shelter much longer Max is a young poodle mix looking for his furever home. Max has not had an easy start in life so RSVP Inc. Animal Welfare and Rescue gave him a new one. He is currently with a wonderful foster family and looking forward to a permanent home in the very near future. Max has come a long way with love, training and lots of TLC. Max loves attention from people he trusts.

Once he forms a bond with you, he will be your best buddy. Max needs a patient dog savvy owner, willing to give him the same attention and commitment his foster family has given him. He would probably thrive in an adult home with no other fur siblings to share but could possibly be placed in a home that helps him adjust to other animals over time.

RSVP Inc. is willing to provide training and guidance with the transition into his new home.

For more information please call 631-728-3524 or fill out an application online! at www.rsvpinc.org! .R.S.V.P. (631) 728-3524.

Soaking

T u J For The Journey Of A Butterfly

Young naturalists, ages four and up, are welcome to the Mashomack Preserve on Shelter Island this Friday at 10:30 AM. The beautiful orange and black monarch butterflies are heading to Mexico for the winter. Come join artist Grace Markman and learn about the lifecycle of a butterfly, read the book Waiting for Wings, and make fun child-sized wings for each child to bring home.

Continued from page 4. against ALS,” said Newhouse, announcing the extraordinary infusion. “The money and the awareness generated through this effort are truly game-changers in the fight against this disease.”

The Wall Street Journal reports the challenge initially started for pet charities. On July 15 golfer Chris Kennedy did a challenge and called out his cousin to participate.

Her husband has ALS and her video of the challenge was a pebble in a pond that sent ripples across the Internet reaching another ALS patient, college baseball player Pete Frates. From there the challenge spread through his network of friends, their network of friends, and their network of friends.

Celebrities (in addition to Indy’s Jessica) began to join in, dumping

August 20, 2014

buckets of ice and often donating buckets of dough, to help the cause.

Back at the Red Horse complex on Monday afternoon, we prevailed upon Jeff at the Red Horse Market for ice and water. He made us a special mixture that was, according to Southampton editor Emily Toy, “really, really cold.” She was nominated to do the honors.

After much discussion, with Jessica’s voice quavering oh, so, slightly, we settled upon the scenic courtyard fountain as the venue. A quick retake of her video and Emily was merciless.

“Ready? One. Two. Three.”

And she quickly dumped gallons of frigid water and crushed ice over her colleague. Always sympathetic, Editor-in-Chief Rick Murphy said, as Jess returned, soaking and shivering to the office, “Hey, could you turn up the A/C?”

Nelson Illusions Magic Show Nelson Illusions is a one-of-a-kind theatrical spectacle that combines rare and original illusions from around the world with award-winning, jawdropping magic.

Play Bridge This hand was played several years ago in a World Championship game. The West hand opened with a preemptive 2H bid. North made a takeout double but his partner converted that bid into a penalty double by passing. The results were bad for West. The defensive team took one spade, one diamond, two clubs, and three hearts for down two. North-South scored 300 points.

Why was the North-South team so successful? How did South know that he was better off passing than bidding 3 spades or 3 diamonds or 3 clubs? He made the judgment that his side could, at best, make a partial game, earning 100-170 points while on defense he could make 300 points. He used the “rule of nine” to make his decision.

In order to use this rule of nine, a player has to add three numbers. The first is the number of the opponent’s trumps that South holds, namely, 4. The second number is the number of trumps that South holds that are honors, which includes the ten. This number is 3. The final number is the level that East has promised, namely, 2.

Since the result is 4+3+2 = 9, South

Homeless cats and kittens are a serious problem on Long Island.

Shelters and rescue groups are beyond full and countless others live on the street, compounding the problem while trying to survive.

It really will “take a village” to correct. If you know of a problem, contact your municipal shelter or local rescue group.

Ask for information on TNR (trap, neuter, return) programs. And then, borrow a trap. If you can help just one, you can make a difference.

FANTASY SP

By Skippy Brown

RTS

Get To Know The Games Ok, you want to play Fantasy Football because all your friends do.

That’s great, but unfortunately a lot has changed in the past 20 years.

There are any number of different games, and it’s important to know what you are signing up for before you draft your team.

We’ve touched on a few of them in the past: PPR is a point per

reception league, which means players get a point (Or a half point) for each catch in addition to points for yardage accrued and touchdowns scored.

The logical thought would be that wide receivers benefit from the PPR format and you should draft them earlier. In reality, the opposite exists.

REAL ESTATE

In PPR always, always take a running back in the first round.

That’s because running backs catch a lot of passes that in previous incarnations of the game didn’t count in the scoring. In other words, RBs run and catch. WRs only catch.

Identify the running backs who are good receivers. I would rate them thusly: Matt Forte, Jamal Charles, and Shady McCoy. Adrian Peterson isn’t known for his receiving prowess but he is the game’s best athlete. The problem has been his previous coaches didn’t employ him much in the passing game – that will change this season.

I also like Giovani Bernard and Pierre Thomas. Keep in mind these

guys all run the ball a lot, too. I stay away from third down specialists like Danny Woodhead and Darren Sproles who catch a lot of balls out of the backfield but don’t carry them much.

Most drafts are rotation drafts, but Auction Drafting is becoming more popular. Each team gets $100, and every player goes up for bid.

Each team must draft a team of starts plus a set number of reserves, usually five. That means 13 players for $100 – that means the average players is worth under eight bucks.

This can get very dicey very quickly. Most players use what is known as the “Stars and Scrubs” strategy. They spend almost all their money on a few good players and fill the rest with $1 players. It’s not unusual for players like McCoy, Charles and Peterson to command salaries of almost $40. That means by the time you get one star running back, one top-flight receiver, and a really good quarterback you are down to a few dollars.

I use the Sit and Wait strategy.

I let the other teams spend the big bucks on the big names. I prefer, say, a guy like Bernard for $20 to a top tier back for $35. There are plenty of good wide receivers in the $10 range; the top tier, like Calvin Johnson, will go for close to $30. There is an exception to this strategy: don’t let anyone steal top-notch player from under you simply because you are reluctant to spend your money early. That means you should have a list of the average dollar value of every player, which you can obtain from any of the fantasy websites.

For example, if someone bids $29 on Peterson and no one raises, you should bid $30, because he is worth at least $34 or more dollars.

Dynasty leagues are coming into vogue. That means you keep some of your players every year. Rules vary – you may get to keep three; you may get to keep any player from the previous season in the same slot that you drafted him. In other words, if you pick Forte in the first round, you can keep him next year and forfeit your first pick, and so on. The advantage to this rule is if you grab a player late in the draft and he becomes a star, then you can keep him for as long as you want.

The trick about Dynasty leagues is to NOT go overboard and pick only young guys, thinking they’ll have long careers on your team.

Pick a team that is designed to win this season.

Why? Life is short, my friends, and friends are fickle – some of them in your league won’t want to come back for another season, and if you can’t find a replacement owner the league will fold. ALWAYS play for the money.

“Sabby the Lingo?” Maritime Language – XI As noted prior, each discipline has a language and that language conveys competency to the listener. This column is part of a series of maritime vocabulary words. So you can sound like the salty ol’ mariner you are. We’ll run enough of these to get the major concepts and phraseology from Alpha to Zulu in front of you!

H – Hotel - International Meaning: I have a pilot on board.

Hail - To attempt to contact another boat or shore, either by voice or radio.

Half Hitch - A single turn of line around an object with the end being led back through the bight. It’s the basis upon which many nautical knots are constructed.

Half Seas Over - (1) The condition of a vessel stranded on a reef or a rock when the seas break over her deck. (2) Half drunk; incapacitated by drink.

Halyard - A line used to hoist or lower a sail, flag or spar. The tightness of the halyard can affect sail shape.

Hand - A member of the ship’s crew.

Handsomely - To do something carefully and in the proper manner.

Hard Aground - A vessel which has gone aground and is incapable of refloating under her own power.

Hard Alee - The command given to inform the crew that the helm is being turned quickly to leeward, turning the boat windward.

Hard Chine - An abrupt intersection between the hull side and the hull bottom of a boat.

Hard Over - Turning the wheel or tiller as far as possible.

Haul - To pull in or heave on a line by hand; to pull.

Haul Out - Remove a boat from the water.

Hawser - A heavy line or cable used for towing, mooring or anchoring a large vessel.

Head - (1) A marine toilet or the compartment containing a toilet. (2) Generally, the top or forward part. (3) The upper corner of a triangular sail.

(4) The top portion of a mast.

Head Down - To turn the boat away from the wind. Also Fall Off. Head Sea - A sea which is traveling in the opposite direction to that of the boat.

Heave - (1) To throw, as to heave a line ashore. (2) An upward pull on a line; to lift. (3) The rise and fall of a vessel in a seaway.

Heave To - To stop a boat and maintain position (with some leeway) by balancing rudder and sail to prevent forward movement, a boat stopped this way is “hove to”; such as when in heavy seas. The idea is to bring the wind onto the weather bow

www.indyeastend.com

and hold the ship in that position, where she can safely and easily ride out a storm.

Heaving Line - A light line with a weight on the end used for heaving from ship to shore (or ship to ship) when coming alongside. A heavier cable or hawser is attached which can then be hauled over using the heaving line.

Heavy Seas - When the water has large or breaking waves in stormy conditions.

Helm - The apparatus by which a vessel is steered, including the rudder, steering wheel and tiller.

Helmsman - The one who steers the boat.

Hook - Slang for anchor.

August 20, 2014

43

Horse Marine - An unhandy seaman.

Hove To - Lying nearly head to wind and stopped, and maintaining this position by trimming sail or working engines.

Hull Down - Said of a distant ship when her hull is below horizon and her masts and upper works are visible.

Hurricane - A strong tropical revolving storm of force 12 or higher. In the northern hemisphere hurricanes revolve in a clockwise direction. In the southern hemisphere these storms revolve counterclockwise and are known as typhoons.

Hypothermia - A life-threatening condition where there is loss of body heat; the greatest danger for anyone in the water. As the body loses its heat, body functions slow down, and this can quickly lead to death.

More in the weeks ahead!

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.”

Scary Season Shaping Up For NFL Locals Ah . . . the smell of football is in the air. The cooler-than-usual summer across the New York Metropolitan area, including the East End, has helped bring back the anticipation of another NFL season.

Unfortunately, as we approach two weeks until kick off, an ugly situation is taking shape locally.

Don’t be fooled by the Jets and Giants combined 5-0 mark in

preseason games. NFL fans have known forever that preseason records are irrelevant. It’s about how the games unfold, and how the starters look in the first half. For both the Jets and the Giants, there are glaring issues that should create plenty of concern for fans of Gang Green and Big Blue.

Jets General Manager John Idzik failed to improve the secondary

REAL ESTATE

in the offseason. He let Antonio Cromartie walk, and was unable to lock up one of the big name cornerbacks on the market (Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Darrelle Revis). Despite the fact that strong cornerback play is crucial to coach Rex Ryan’s system, the Jets went into camp relying on Dee Milliner, Dimitri Patterson, and Dexter McDougle.

Milliner did little to impress in his rookie season, then sprained his ankle last week. He’s expected to miss a few weeks. Third-round pick McDougle tore his ACL and is done for the season, while Patterson has missed time with calf and ankle injuries. The Jets have been forced to move safety Antonio Allen to corner and rely on 2010 first round bust Kyle Wilson. Allen was beaten by the Bengals’ A.J. Green for a 35yard gain on Saturday night, while

Wilson was smoked by Mohamed Sanu for a 43-yard touchdown.

Meantime, the Giants biggest issue is on the offensive side of the ball. Eli Manning looks dazed and confused. Granted, he’s looked that way for most of his career, and it’s worked. But now, that look is translating to his play on the field. The transition from Kevin Gilbride to Ben McAdoo as offensive coordinator has not been smooth.

After going 0-2 against the Steelers, Manning followed it up with a 1 for 7 performance against the Colts. Manning played four series and the offense produced 38 total yards in Indianapolis. The running game hasn’t accomplished much. Wilson’s career is over, and Rashad Jennings has one long 73 yard touchdown run. Other than that he’s carried the ball 18 times this preseason for a total of 52 yards. Part of the reason for Manning’s struggles, along with the running game, is an incompetent offensive line.

Will Beatty returned from injury on Sunday and looked below average. Even the supposed best of the bunch, Justin Pugh missed a blitz pickup and allowed a sack.

Some fans will chalk it all up to working out the preseason kinks.

But, that’s not the case. Neither team has given reason to believe they are going to win double digit games, or even reach the .500 mark. Jets fans dealing with a disastrous secondary should have nightmares after realizing they face quarterbacks Aaron Rodgers, Jay Cutler, Matt Stafford, Peyton Manning and Tom Brady in the first half of the season.

While the Giants offensive line opens the season facing a Lions defensive line anchored by Ndamukong Suh, followed by the Cardinals and Texans, two defenses that ranked in the top-10 last season.

As we hit the home stretch of what’s been a disappointing baseball season for the Yankees and the Mets, the fall isn’t bringing reason for optimism. The Jets and the Giants have playoff aspirations, but with what they’ve shown so far in the preseason . . . we may soon be quickly counting down to the openers for the Knicks and Nets.

Now that’s a chilling thought.
