FISHING MONTAUK WITH CAPTAIN SKIP
The 2024 Fall Blitz is on Big Time!! Literally thousands of Striped Bass are coming by Montauk right now. From Shagwong all the way past Town on the south side. Just about anything you
throw at them they'll eat! The full feeding frenzy is happening and you really don't want to miss it. Catch and release can be a lot of fun, with the end result is the ish will live to ight another day. Striped Bass are a really tough and resilient ish, but they are not indestructible.
HIGH TIDE CHART FOR MONTAUK HARBOR
When doing catch and release try not to use a net, especially a polypropylene net, because it can scratch their equivalent of a cornea. The rubber mesh nets are much more forgiving and tangle much less, enabling you to release the ish more quickly. When you do release the ish point the head down towards the water and gently thrust it head irst into the water. By doing this it triggers their instinct to start swimming immediately, and down they'll go!
It's Blackfish Season
Striped Bass have no teeth, so instead of netting them simply reach over the side of the boat if the height permits, grab the Bass by putting your thumb into its mouth and grip down tightly, taking care to avoid the hook. This makes it easy to remove the hook quickly and you're all ready to take that quick picture. Same goes for Black
Sea Bass, put your thumb into their mouth and bear down on their bottom lip. De initely do not use this technique with Blue ish, they have teeth that are razor sharp and plenty of them!!!
More inshore action this time of year is Black ish (Tautog) anchoring is a must and green crabs, calico, hermit are all good for bait. Find a rockpile that hasn't been hit yet and you should ind them. Beginning and end of a tide is best, once the tide gets running hard it's hard to feel the bite. Black ish season is October 15 through December 22 Bag limit is 4 per angler, size limit 16 inches.

November 2024
There will be a Full Beaver Moon on November 15, 2024. November 2024, skygazers will be able to witness the Super Beaver Moon, the second full moon of au tumn. This full moon will be in the zodiac sign of Tau rus, known for its intense and persistent nature. The Super Beaver Moon is so named because it coincides with the time when beavers work hard to prepare for winter. This celestial event will be a magni icent sight, and those interested in astronomy should mark their calendars.
There will be a Mercury Retrograde from November 25 to December 15, 2024. Are you aware that during Mercury retrograde, we have a unique opportunity to re lect on our lives and align with our passions? This astrological phenomenon, which occurs a few times a year, is known to affect travel, communication, and technology. Still, it can also be a period of introspection that helps us ind calm in the chaos of our lives.
We must step back from our busy schedules dur ing this time. We can use this opportunity to re lect on our goals, values, and relationships and ensure we're on the right path. By embracing Mercury's slower pace and using helpful products, we can con idently navi gate this time and emerge more substantial and more in tune with ourselves.
It is crucial to remember that Mercury retrograde is not a favorable time for making important decisions or signing contracts. Our judgment may become un clear during this period, leading to unfavorable out comes. However, it's also an ideal time to turn our attention inward and focus on activities such as medi tation and journaling. By engaging in these practices, we can gain valuable insights into our lives and be bet ter prepared for success when Mercury goes direct.
Sagittarius (November 22 – December 22) — Happy birthday, Sagittarius! It is crucial to be aware of the impact of your closest relationships on different as pects of your life. The holiday season provides oppor tunities for creating fun and memorable experiences. You possess the potential to turn your biggest aspira tions into reality. You may also encounter new acquain tances during this time. Don't worry too much about deciding who you want to keep in your life and who you want to let go.
Capricorn (December 22 – January 20) — Romantic challenges demand a proactive approach. It is better to make any decision than not to decide at all. A candlelit dinner can be very effective in resolving a quarrel. Your love has long lasting power, so being true to yourself and your partner is essential. Do not hide behind social norms, as sometimes a display of passion is all needed to convey your feelings.
Aquarius (January 21 – February 19) — Believe in your potential for success and set realistic goals. Share a special moment with a loved one and experience the joy it brings. Start the New Year with positivity and an inspiring attitude.
Pisces (February 20 – March 20) — Your rebellious side is showing, indi cating that you might have the urge to express your thoughts freely. How ever, it might be wiser to exercise re straint and avoid saying anything inappropriate or offensive. Being po litically correct is the right option in this scenario. You can control yourself and not give in to your emotions. You're feeling a lot of energy and have high expectations. Being kind to your self and others is essential, and not set the bar too high.
Aries (March 21 – April 20) — Cre ativity often emerges from emotional releases. Therefore, try to spend more time with those individuals who stimulate your emotions. Addi tionally, it is wise to prepare yourself well before initiating new projects. Remember to explore different av enues and not to limit yourself to just one direction. You currently have two projects on the back burner, and one of them has more potential than you realize. Keep an open mind and seek the opinions of your coworkers.
Taurus (April 21 – May 21) — You are beginning a signi icant life change, and feeling solid emotions is natural. However, you mustn't rush or overreact. Simplify your life as much as possible, and be determined to pursue your goals and ambitions. Try to be more creative in all aspects of your life, as this creativity could help you stand out in your career and po

Surfing Montauk with Debra Rose
Top Ten
September and October are the cherished months of the year when living on the east end for offering the best of all worlds, espe cially in Montauk. Ideally the weather is spectacular, the waves are less crowded, and you have the chance to experience restaurants that were too busy over the summer before they close for the winer. Traf ic is much better, and the evening sky offers a stunning tapestry of stars and dra matic moon phases much more potent this time of year. This fall has been exceptional for the magical weather and while not hurricane swell, consistent and fun waves have been abundant.
We took an informal survey by asking east end surfers about their favorite aspects of the off season, and many responses were similar. All agreed how lucky they are to be in Montauk during this time, as it is a reward for handling the masses over the summer.
Kids Are Back in School This makes driving to the beach and catching waves less hectic, more accessible and offers a less full line up.
Catching Up with Friends Along with kids return ing to school, you can see your parent friends after drop off, and spending time feels less rushed and less distracted.
The Light There is a reason the east end is com pared to beautiful places on the planet like the South of France for its picturesque sunshine. The fall is es pecially known for having an “all day golden hour.”
Warm Water Finally, the ocean warms up just as summer ends, and it’s a brief window to enjoy the warmest water of the year before putting on all that gear or traveling the globe in search of tropical seas. Sharks We can enjoy the lively sea life of whales, porpoises and seals, and can appreciate the plentiful bait ish that entertain the sharks, so they leave us alone.
Convenience It’s a novelty to drive on the beach, and a joy to explore the breaks not quickly accessible by foot in search of sand bars.
Costume Changes It’s time to get used to that 4/3, or is it? Maybe you toggle back and forth between your 4/3 and warm Isurus 3/2 or swap them out for your spring suit because you are too hot.
Wax Maybe you clean up your board and refresh the base coast from all the junk it collected all summer and applying that irst full coast of cold water wax is immediately satisfying.
Transportation There is always parking, and a re lease of stress heading to the beach “in time” accord ing to the strategy you created for the summer to jockey for a spot. On pretty days, you can still ride your bike to the beach and have spaces to keep your cruiser in one piece.
Less Guilt The sun rises later, it is an incentive to sleep a little longer, move with the seasons, and feel less guilt ridden that you did not paddle out as early as Carol did.
Happy Sur ing!

Montauk Fire Department Corner
Photos by Richard Lewin Professional Photography (soniboy@aol.com)
Welcome to this month’s edition of the Montauk Fire Department Corner where every month I have the op portunity to share with the public the current events in our department. I hope everyone had a pleasant and safe Columbus Day weekend and Hal loween. As we all know we are heading towards winter, so this is the time to check and ensure that your smoke detectors and ire extinguishers are all properly working, and that your chim ney is free of debris before you start using your ireplaces. It only takes a few minutes to check these things, and it is time well invested.
I know I reported last month that Fire Fighter/AEMT Alan Burke received his 50 year pin at our annual inspection dinner recently at Gosman’s restaurant. He also received a proclama tion from County Legislator Ann Welker. I wanted to show the photo of Alan receiving this well deserved award.
On Columbus Day weekend the annual Tyler Valcich Me morial Car Show supporting the Tyler Proj ect (www.tylerproject.org) was on full display at the Amagansett Fire Department. This is the eleventh year of the show organ ized by Montauk Fire Department Ex Chief Mickey Valcich and his wife Valinda. The show is in memory of their son, Tyler, a Montauk Fire Fighter who is always missed and will never be forgotten. Please see the attached photos, including Val cich friends and family.
On Sunday, October 13th the Montauk Fire De partment, in conjunction with the Montauk Point Lions Club, hosted a pancake breakfast. This breakfast, which has been an annual event for many years, is a fundraising event with the proceeds going to offset the costs of the annual Senior Citizen holiday dinner in early December. I want to thank all the members of the department who assisted and thank the Montauk Point Lions who worked with us side by side to ensure we can host a very nice holiday dinner for our seniors in the upcoming holiday season.
On Wednesday, October 16th Members of the Montauk Fire Department hosted a “live burn” drill at 60 South Fuller Road. As you can imagine, a life exercise such as this is bene icial to all personnel in the department. Thanks to the Of icers, men and women, who participated in this very informative drill. Please see the photos here.
That’s it for this month’s article. I hope everyone has a safe and fun Hallo ween and Thanksgiving with family and friends.

Inlet Seafood Restaurant
by Sue Giustino
Living in Montauk affords its res idents and visitors an array of intrigu ing choices for dining. One of the tried and true favorites which has withstood the test of time since 2006 is the Inlet Seafood Restaurant
Owned and operated by six local ish ermen, and located at the end of East Lake Drive, the two story building is nestled between their working docks and Gin Beach, on the East side of the Montauk Harbor Inlet. With unlimited breathtaking water views of Montauk Harbor and the Block Island Sound, the Inlet Restaurant offers gorgeous sunsets from each of the indoor and
outdoor dining areas, an extensive variety of boat to table fresh ish options, as well as many other delightful meal choices.
Sitting at a high top table across from the bar, with a lovely view of the setting sun, we were greeted by our friendly waitress Flora and ordered a few cocktails. If you’re looking for a unique refreshing
option, my favorite is the Saki Tini; a delightful blend of cu cumber vodka and saki. In addition to their complete cock tail menu, there also run bar specials; popular this time of year is the Pumpkin Martini or the creative Apple Cider cocktail.
Comprised of an array of Raw Bar selections, Salads, Appetizers, Pasta, Land and Sea options, the menu is quite pleasing. Chef Henry Jimenez also creates nightly appetizer, and entrée specials. In addition, Sushi Chef Johnny at the Sushi Bar, has created a great selection of Nori Rolls, Sushi & Sashimi Rolls and Platters, nightly specials, as well as many tasty starters.
We started with the Grilled Octopus, Calamari Salad, and the Inlet Roll. Each was fresh, tender, and delicious. The irst is prepared with Grilled Octo pus perched upon a traditional Romesco Sauce, and sided with a tasty house salad and a gentle white bean crostini. Curious about the delicious Romesco Sauce I did a bit of re search and found that it is a tomato based sauce origi nating from the city of Valls, in Catalonia Spain. Made to be eaten with ish, ishermen in this area typically made this sauce from any mixture of roasted tomatoes and garlic, some com bination of toasted almonds, pine nuts, or hazelnuts, olive or sun lower oil and nyora peppers. Ground stale bread or lour was at times used as a thickener. or to provide texture. I’m not sure how Chef Henry prepares it, but it was a delectable addition to this outstanding dish.
The Grilled Calamari Salad has fresh mixed ield greens, tomatoes, roasted red peppers, and bal samic dressing gar nished with sesame seeds, Calabrian Chili and all topped with per fectly charred calamari. It’s a wonderful alternative to a traditional fried calamari salad.
The Inlet Roll is a blend of spicy crunchy tuna, avocado and sira cha & ponzu sauce this roll doesn’t have rice, it’s light and quite tasty. Look ing for some more tradi tional there are many choices of rolls from which to choose. The

Lady Slipper is a gentle arrangement of shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, and avocado wrapped in pink soy paper beautifully arranged like a pink fan and plated with a swish of sweet chili sauce. With a red and black tobiko top, the FM Station is delicious combination of salmon, tuna, yellowtail, and avocado. Each of these three rolls, although quite different, are spectac ularly fresh, delicious and some of our fa vorites.
Having al ways favored the Pan Seared Scal lops, when I no ticed the sides recently changed, we decided to give it a try. On a bed of creamy cauli lower puree and accompa nied with Shimeji Mush rooms with an apple brandy cream sauce the gently seared scallops practically melt in your mouth such a delightful combination of accenting lavors!
Another terri ic meal is the Whole Sea Bass served either Tempura Fried or Grilled and perched upon a bed of garlic and oil sauteed spin ach. We choose the crispy tempura option which has a tangy sweet sauce perfectly accenting the tender ish. That along with the contrasting lavors of garlic spinach, makes this dish a wonderful blend of lavors and textures.
One of the specials happened to be one of my favorites, Sword ish. It was blackened, locking in and adding spice to all of the natural ish lavor, and dished with black lentils and perfectly creamy Beurre Blanc Sauce, all gar nished with petite pea shoots a tasty, aromatically and visually pleasing meal.
Straying from the ‘Sea’ op tions to the ‘Land’, we decided on the highly rec ommended LI Half Duck. Crisp and lavorful, the duck is cooked with a sweet chili Hoisin sauce and fanned with grilled zucchini chips and roasted ingerling potatoes. Other ‘Land’ options include a roasted Half Chicken, Grilled Pork Chop, Rib Eye Steak, or a Hamburger, each accompa nied by a variety of sides.
Although we were unable to add dessert to our meal, be sure to check with the dessert menu for the decadent options available, including the tempting Brownie or Cookie Sundae However, we did have one after dinner treat DHR 1658 Bourbon https://dhr1658.com/. Easy to sip, this smooth bourbon with tones of banana, ginger, pepper, and a hay inish was imagined right here in Montauk by Cate and Pat Keogh of the Deep Hollow Ranch, and is distilled on the East End of LI. ‘As avid connoisseurs of ine American whiskeys, Pat and Cate have created a craft, single oak barrel aged bourbon that carries the traditions and honors the heritage of Deep Hollow Ranch.’ As usual, we enjoyed the entire evening; great food, ambiance, cocktails and service.
All summer, the Inlet presented live music in the back yard adjacent to the Montauk Inlet complete with ire pits, Adirondack chairs, and Corn Hole boards, this casual setting is perfect for gathering pre or post meal, or even for just a cocktail with friends while enjoying the enter tainment with a cool breeze off the water.
Coming up on December 14th, the fun continues with their tradi tional Holiday Party & Boat Parade tickets are on sale https://www.instagram.com/inletseafoodmtk/ . “We are proud to say that as a result of last year's holiday party, we donated $20k to @montaukfoodpantry!! This year we will donate to them AND another local charity.”

Brain Waves...
with Debra Rose
Eat With Your Eyes
The fall season in our area usually evokes images of leaves changing, heartier cuisine and warmer wardrobes. The emotional and cultural associations will the fall holidays are especially visual, Halloween costumes, Thanksgiving tables, more candles and outdoor lighting, ireplaces and lames from cooking meals.
Our transition from summer welcomes a healthy change in physical activity as well as nutrition, and sleeping, being active and what we consume should all be correlated with the time of year. Something we can pay closer attention to during these months are not only the healthy transitions but the aesthetic ones that make wellness more enjoyable. Most impactful is how we present what we chose to taste and if place a priority on how it is presented as much as how it tastes and nourishes us.
Psychologically speaking, it is our eyes not our noses or taste buds that alert our brains to what we perceive and process about our food before we eat. Images of a bright bowl of berries, a deep garnet glass of wine or a colorful salad are immediate triggers for the other senses to follow the experience. If you have eaten a meal in a dark environment or late in the evening outside, you are not only at a loss of the experience, but you may also generally be confused about what you are eating. Notice when there is careful attention paid to plating one’s food, garnishing with herbs or coordinating colors, the experience changes and is even enhanced by how your eyes modify your interpretation of the dish. We usually believe smell is the powerful trigger, but it is what you see that dominates.

Next time you are making a meal, throwing a dinner party, or going to a restaurant, compare how your experience changes. Does food appear to be higher in quality? Is your cuisine elevated? Does it make your desire to eat less about quantity when the meal is more appealing visually? Even the plate is important. Have a little fun with this experiment, and maybe you ind yourself styling your food a bit more or having a greater appreciation for those that do.

HIFF 2024…BIGGER THAN EVER!
by Debbie Tuma Photos by Debbie Tuma & Regina Jacina
The 32nd Hamptons International Film Festival came into town this year from October 4 to 14. There were ilms of every kind imaginable—from war stories, to love stories, from documentaries about Long Island to world cinema docs. Subjects ranged from skydiving to animal rights, from farm pollution to seaweed, to abor tion rights, mental health, and politics. And as usual, there were ilms about famous people, from Liza Minelli to Martha Ste wart, Kenneth Cole, and James Carville.
Since the weather was perfect with sunny skies and in the 70’s, the streets of East Hampton and Sag Harbor were packed each day, from East Hampton Regal Cinema to Guild Hall, to Sag Harbor Cinema. There were movie screenings each day from morning to night, inter spersed with morning talks by ilmmakers and industry guests at Village Bistro in East Hampton. One local ilmmaker, Barry Sonnenfeld, talked about his long career in the business, and his new memoir, “Best Possible Place, Worst Possible Time.”
One of the highlights of this annual festival was the “Conversation With…” consisting of live interviews with famous stars who also appear in some of the HIFF ilms. This year, Liev Schreiber was inter viewed by Alec Baldwin, and he also re ceived the Dick Cavett Artistic Champion Award. Longtime Actress Demi Moore re ceived the Career Achievement in Acting Award at Guild Hall, and Actor Andrew
Gar ield was interviewed at East Hampton Regal Cinema after appearing in his ilm “We Live In Time,” at the festival. This year, there were so many incredible ilms, selected by the talented HIFF Artistic Director David Nugent, that I had a hard time deciding what to see, but luckily I got to meet the ilmmakers at The Maidstone Inn, where they gathered to talk to the press. It’s not every day you get to sit with so many tal ented producers, directors, actors, writers, who came to share their movies with us. Some of these independent ilms go on to win awards, go to other festivals, go to Net lix, and even premiere here be fore going to Hollywood and winning Os cars!
of the destruction and darkness of their city. In the background, bombs are going off all day and their future is unpredict able. But they and their artist friends try to bring some light into their world by creating beauty from nature, in their art.
When asked why they made this ilm, which won over 30 awards in festivals across the U.S., Leontyev said, “We wanted to share our personal story with the world to let people see what we are living through, and how we manage to survive so far, through putting our art out into the world.”
At The Maidstone Inn, I met one in credible couple, Slava Leontyev and his wife Anya Stasenko, who are living in Khirkav, nine miles from the Russian bor der, in the midst of the Ukraine War. Leon tyev, a front line soldier in the war, and Anya, a professional artist, made an award winning, personal and important documentary ilm called, “Porcelain War.” It is about their day to day life in the Uk raine, living in a small apartment with their dog “Frodo,” who they had with them. It’s a true story of heroism, as they struggle to defend their country while cre ating magni icent porcelain artwork, out
The couple is touring the U.S. for a year with this ilm, with one of the pro ducers, Paula Pesman of Boulder, Col orado. She said the ilm will be shown again at the ICF Theater in Manhattan on November 22. Don’t miss it!
A ilm about another country, Peru, in the World Cinema Narrative category, was Called “Mistura,” which means “Mixture.” It was a fascinating story of a wealthy woman whose husband leaves her for another woman, and she has to recreate her life. She opens a restaurant with the help of her her household staff, and not only inds herself, but inds a whole new world and also true love, along the way. Set in the 1960’s in Lima, Peru, it is beau tifully ilmed with a rich, sensuous feel,

Years ago, the study of the Sun Earth con nection was edgy stuff; few scientists had the breadth of knowledge to marshal the many disciplines re quired to gain a full picture.

I rarely write reviews, but I felt compelled to share my experience at Tipperary in Montauk because the staff truly deserves recognition. This hotel is the best deal in the area, offering both an unbeatable location and outstanding service.
Tipperary is conveniently located near the docks, making it perfect for anyone looking to enjoy Montauk's coastal charm. The proximity to the water and local attractions adds to the overall appeal of this gem.
What truly sets Tipperary apart, however, is the incredible staff. The receptionist was incredibly kind and welcoming, making check-in a breeze. The housekeeping staff, particularly Jeanette, went above and beyond to ensure our room was spotless and comfortable throughout our stay. Jeanette’s dedication to her work was evident in every detail.
Our stay at Tipperary was a delightful experience, thanks to the exceptional staff and prime location. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Montauk. You won't be disappointed!

physics,” popularly known as Space Weather.
Today, a single strong solar lare could bring civilization to its knees. Modern society has come to depend on tech nologies sensitive to solar radiation and geomagnetic storms. Particularly vulnerable are intercontinental power grids, interplanetary robotic and human exploration, satel lite operations and communications, and GPS navigation. These technologies are woven into the fabric of daily life, from health care and inance to basic utilities. Both short and long term forecasting models are urgently needed to mitigate the effects of solar storms and to anticipate their collective impact on aviation, astronaut safety, terrestrial climate and more.
As human activity expands into the solar system, the need for accurate space weather and space climate fore casting is expanding, too. Space probes are now orbiting or en route for lybys of Mercury, Venus, Earth and the Moon, Mars, Vesta, Ceres, Saturn, and Pluto. Agencies around the world are preparing to send robotic spacecraft into inter planetary space. Each of these missions (plus others on the drawing board) has a unique need to know when a solar storm will pass through its corner of space or how the sub sequent solar cycle will behave. By monitoring the Sun from widely different angles simultaneously, they provide early warnings of explosive events on the Sun as they develop on the solar far side. These explosive events may pose threat ening conditions for both earth bound commerce and na tional security, as well as orbiting satellites and probes, both robotic and human tended.
Even during a relatively weak solar maximum, the po tential consequences that such events can have on society are too important to ignore. The challenges associated with space weather affect all developed and developing countries. It is basic research with a high public purpose and the stated goal of the Living With A Star program is to achieve the Sun Earth, Sun Planet system understanding.
Dr. Guhathakurta has led the development of Helio physics as an integrated scien ti ic discipline from which fun damental discoveries about our universe provide direct societal bene its. She made possible lag ship missions (e.g. the Solar Dy namics Observatory, Van Allen Probes, Solar Orbiter Collabora tion and Parker Solar Probe), including STEREO, that would revolutionize our understanding of how the Sun shapes space weather in the solar system. Since 2017, she has been the driving force (at NASA Headquarters and at NASA Ames) behind the growth of Frontier Development Laboratory, both in terms of the breadth of problem areas tackled, as well as in the number of agency and industry partners (e.g. Google, Nvidia, IBM, Intel, Lockheed Martin, Planet). She is currently a Senior Advisor for New Initiatives at Goddard Space Flight Center and Program Scientist at NASA’s Helio physics Division.

A Brief History of Veterans Day*
World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” – of icially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles. However, ighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hos tilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. For that reason, November 11, 1918, is gen erally regarded as the end of “the war to end all wars.”
Veterans Day, formerly known as Armistice Day, was originally set as a U.S. legal holiday to honor the end of World War I, which of icially took place on November 11, 1918. In 1938, through an act of Congress, November 11th was made a legal holiday.
In 1954, at the urging of the veterans service organizations, the 83rd U.S. Congress amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word "Armistice" and inserting the word "Veterans.” On June 1, 1954, November 11th became a day to honor American veterans of all wars.
In 1968, the Uniforms Holiday Bill was signed, ensuring three day weekends for federal employees by celebrating four national holi days on Mondays: Washington's Birthday, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day. Many states did not agree with this decision and continued to celebrate the holiday on their original dates. With much con fusion, the irst Veterans Day under the new law was observed on October 25, 1971.
On September 20, 1975, President Gerald R. Ford signed a law which returned the annual observance of Veterans Day to its original date of November 11th, be ginning in 1978. Since then, the Veterans Day holiday has been observed on November 11th.
Veterans Day Timeline
1919...In November 1919, President Wilson pro claimed November 11 as the irst commemoration of Armistice Day with the following words: “To us in America, the re lections of Armistice Day will be illed with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory, both because of the thing from which it has freed us and because of the opportunity it has given America to show her sympathy with peace and justice in the coun cils of the nations…”
1926...The United States Congress of icially recog nized the end of World War I when it passed a concur rent resolution on June 4, 1926, with these words: Whereas the 11th of November 1918, marked the ces sation of the most destructive, sanguinary, and far
reaching war in human annals and the resumption by the people of the United States of peaceful relations with other nations, which we hope may never again be severed, and Whereas it is itting that the recurring anniversary of this date should be commem orated with thanksgiving and prayer and exercises designed to perpetuate peace through good will and mutual understanding between nations; and Whereas the legislatures of twenty seven of our States have already declared November 11 to be a legal holiday: Therefore be it Resolved by the Senate (the House of Represen tatives concurring), that the President of the United States is requested to issue a pro clamation calling upon the of icials to display the lag of the United States on all Government buildings on November 11 and inviting the people of the United States to observe the day in schools and churches, or other suitable places, with appropriate cer emonies of friendly relations with all other peoples.
1938...An Act (52 Stat. 351; 5 U. S. Code, Sec. 87a) approved May 13, 1938, made the 11th of November in each year a legal holiday—a day to be dedicated to the cause of world peace and to be thereafter celebrated and known as “Armistice Day.” Armistice Day was primarily a day set aside to honor Veterans of World War I.
1954...In 1954, after World War II had required the greatest mobilization of soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen in the Nation’s history; after American forces had fought aggression in Korea, the 83rd Congress, at the urging of the

and portrays the diversity of cultures and cuisine in this fabulous city. Producer Ivan Orlic and writer/director Ricardo de Mon treuil also discussed their ilm at the Maid stone Inn.
Speaking of food, the Opening Night movie was the new documentary, “Mar tha,” as told by Martha Stewart herself, and appeared at the premiere. Directed by R.J. Cutler, it was an intimate and honest look back at this icon’s long journey to success, from Wall Street to wall paper! She wasn’t afraid to share her rise to fame and its pitfalls along the way, from having a tough father, to breaking into the man’s world of the stock market, struggling to create her lifestyle empire, surviving un faithful men and friends, and managing to write books and run a business and family as well. Watch for this movie on Net lix!
Another great documentary ilm was “A Man With Sole: The Impact of Kenneth Cole.” For decades, his shoes have been fa mous, but now this ilm incorporates his other side, as a social activist and advocate of human rights. Tony and Emmy Award winner Dori Bernstein directed and pro duced this captivating ilm, showing Cole’s social action with the AIDS/HIV crisis, homelessness crisis, LGBTQIA + rights, re productive rights for women, gun safety and also the mental health crisis in Amer ica. His creative, bold and hard hitting ad campaigns also helped get these messages across to his customers and the public.
Before the screening of his documen tary, Cole invited some guests to a brunch
at the Water Mill home of artist Pamela Bell, who is his co founder of The Mental Health Coalition. Their mission is to des tigmatize mental health and empower ac cess to vital resources and necessary support for all. Bell said she got involved due to the loss of her former business partner, designer Kate Spade, who died six years ago by suicide, and also because of Bell’s sister, who was bi polar and died of breast cancer. Also at the brunch was Dan Gillison, who runs the National Alliance of Mental Illness (NAMI.) At the brunch, Cole explained that he got involved in these various causes after starting his company, Kenneth Cole Productions, 40 years ago. “I believe that business and advocacy are stronger together,” said Cole. “It also helps to establish more meaningful relation ships with my clients.”
Cole’s wife, Maria Cuomo, produced a ilm in the festival called, “Death By Numbers,” about gun violence and anxiety in our schools.
Another notable documentary was “Liza: A Truly Terri ic Absolutely True Story,” about Liza Minnelli’s life as the daughter of Judy Garland, and how she be came a star on her own. Now in her later
years, she tells her incredible story of her rise to fame, her great loves, and her many close friends in the business.
The ilms in this festival take the viewer to all parts of the world. A fascinat ing short ilm, “The Fly Collectors,” by Yusuf Ahmed of Ethiopia and Harlem, fol lowed a group of men in Senegal who col lect lies from the rivers to prove that this
country has eliminated an ancient disease called “River Blindness.” “The idea for this ilm came from eliminating this disease in Niger,” said Ahmed. “Previously these lies had bitten people there, and they were the irst to eliminate it by spraying Invermec tin, which kills the parasites.”
And back on Long Island, was another important ilm called “Seaweed Stories,” about studies on all types of seaweeds, as a food and fuel source, and how they can protect the environment. Featured in this beautiful ilm were some Shinnecock In dian women who harvest seaweed locally, and try to protect it from over devel opment of the land, and climate change.
Kudos to Artistic Director David Nu gent for choosing these wonderful ilms, and to Board Chairman Randy Maestro and Executive Director Anne Chaisson for creating another amazing festival.

The Story Keeper by Lisa Wingate
Lisa Wingate is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Before We Were Yours, [which has sold more than three million copies and been translated into over forty languages worldwide]. However, that’s just the beginning of her long list of successful books including; The Book of Lost Friends, Before and After, her newest Shelterwood, and two of her many thematic series Tending Roses Books [Tending Roses and A Thousand Voices were two that I enjoyed] and Carolina Heritage Heirlooms Book which includes The Story Keeper
Before We Were Yours was the irst Wingate novel I read I believe it is still my favorite. Based on one of America’s most notorious real life scandals—in which Georgia Tann, director of a Memphis based adoption organization, kidnapped and sold poor children to wealthy families all over the country therefor not an easy topic to write or read about. However, her writing style is riveting, in this mesmerizing tale about sibling love.
In her most recent novel, which I did read and very much enjoyed, Shelterwood, Wingate traces the story of children abandoned by the law and the battle to see justice done. Taking place in the early 1900’s in Oklahoma, she skillfully uses the untold history of women pioneers who fought to protect children caught in the storm of land barons hungry for power and oil wealth to weave this unforgettable story.
Next on my reading list is The Book of Lost Friends yet, but according to the description, it is an historical novel depicting the story of three young women searching for family amid the destruction of the post–Civil War South, and of a modern day teacher who learns of their story and its vital connection to her students’ lives.
My recent Wingate read is The Story Keeper, in which a Successful New York editor, Jen Gibbs, recently secured a new ‘dream’ position at Vida House Publishing. All is going well until a mysterious manuscript from an old ‘slush pile’ appears on her desk. Along with Jen, readers are drawn into the life of Sarra [the main character], a mixed race Melungeon girl trapped by dangerous men in the turn of the century Appalachia, she follows a risky hunch in the hopes of it leading to The Story Keeper’s hidden origins and unknown author.
As she discovers the trail is turning towards the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, a place Jen thought she’d left behind forever, she’s not sure that solving the mystery and possibly attaining a book deal, are worth the risk of going back home.
This is yet another example of Lisa’s ability to create captivating stories from dif icult topics. Beautifully written, The Story Keeper is a journey of discovery; intertwining themes of forgiveness, returning home, and navigating brokenness.

As the ms Rotterdam, Holland America's flagship, docked in Le Havre, my husband Marcus and I aced a choice. While many passengers eagerly disembarked or a day long excursion to Paris, we had already experienced the City o Light a couple o years prior. Instead, we opted to explore the charming coastal town o Honfleur, a decision that would prove to be an un orgettable adventure steeped in history, culture, and the undeniable charm o Normandy.
The morning was chilly and rainy, a ar cry rom the idyllic weather we had grown accustomed to on our transatlantic journey. But as the crowds rushed to depart, I reveled in the warm solitude o the Green House Spa. With HAL's 'Taste o Normandy' tour not commencing until 1pm, I indulged in some much needed me time, leaving Marcus to brave the elaborate selections o the Lido bu et or break ast. As I lay on the heated lounge chair, the so t patter o raindrops against the panorama windows was the per ect accompaniment to a soothing morning o pampering.
When Le Havre slowly came into sight that morning, we were pre pared or our excursion. The phrase 'Taste o Normandy' had conjured im ages o gastronomic delights, but soon we realized that in this case, 'taste' meant something altogether di erent – Calvados, the renowned apple brandy o the region. A hurried lunch at the Lido seemed in order be ore embarking on the spirits ocused tour,
which was just one part o our hal day bus excursion. Le Havre itsel is a major port city in the Seine Maritime department in the Normandy region o northern France. Founded by King Francis I in 1517, the city and port were inscribed as a World Her itage Site by UNESCO in 2005 due to its unique post WWII reconstruction and architecture. Our journey took us first through the pic turesque Normandy countryside to the quaint village o Le Breuil en Auge, home to the Drouin distillery. Nestled among 17th century hal timbered houses, this amily run opera tion had been per ecting the art o Calvados production or generations. As the owner spoke about the history o the spirit, rom the specific apples used, to the care ul aging process, Marcus sampled the fine liqueur, his eyes lighting up with appreciation. He seemed to gain a deeper understanding o the cra ts manship and rich heritage behind this beloved Norman spirit with each sip rom his glass.
Following the distillery tour, we boarded the bus once more, bound or the historic town o Honfleur. This charming enclave holds a special place in the annals o art history, having inspired the likes o Monet, Courbet, and Boudin. Despite the overcast skies, Honfleur's beauty with its well preserved 16th and 17th century architecture shone through, capti vating us as we embarked on a guided walking tour through its narrow, cobblestone streets.
The crown jewel o Honfleur is undoubtedly its picturesque har bor, Le Vieux Bassin. The old port, with its narrow entrance and sur

GREY GARDENS: A MULTI ‘STORY’ HOUSE
by Stefan Lonce
Everyone has “those relatives.” The ones you don’t talk about...or when you do it comes down to, “Whatever happened to...I wonder what they’re up to?” Even Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis did! But, I’d be willing to bet, you don’t have relatives like hers. And, perhaps one of the most in teresting characters in her relatives’ story...the house they lived in itself.
‘Grey Gardens’ is a 14 room house in the Georgica Pond neighborhood of East Hampton, NY. It was the residence of the Beale family from 1924 to 1979, including mother and daughter Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale and Edith "Little Edie" Bouvier Beale (the aunt and irst cousin of Jacque line Kennedy Onassis) from 1952 to 1977. The 1975 documentary Grey Gardens de picted the two living in squalor in the mansion; the highly regarded ilm spawned a 2006 Broadway musical, a 2009 television movie, and other adapta tions...but irst, the house itself.
In 1895, 4 acres of oceanfront land was bought by F. Stanhope Phillips and Margaret Bagg Phillips, daughter of John S. Bagg, owner of The Detroit Free Press . The Phillipses paid $2,500 (equivalent to $92,000 in today’s dollars). The couple an nounced their plans to build a $100,000 (equivalent to $3,662,000 today) house on the property. However, the purchase hit a snag when it was revealed that the prop erty had been bequeathed to the U.S. gov ernment.
In 1897, Joseph Greenleaf Thorp (1862–1934) designed the house. Thorpe
had designed several other houses in East Hampton. However, the house was not im mediately built. Stanhope Phillips died in 1901, leaving behind an estate valued at $250,000 ($9,156,000 today). His brother challenged Margaret for control of the es tate, saying she had used undue in luence on him and that she had cremated him so that an autopsy could not be performed to con irm this. The court sided with Marga ret. After the ownership issues were set tled, construction on the house started.
In 1913, Robert C. Hill, president of Consolidation Coal Company, bought the house. Hill's wife Anna Gilman Hill im ported ornate concrete walls from Spain to enclose the garden and hired landscape designer Ruth Bramley to create what would become the core of Grey Gardens.
In 1924, Phelan Beale acquired the estate for his wife Edith Ewing Bouvier Beale. Phelan was a law partner of John Vernou Bouvier Jr. and had married Bou vier's daughter, Edith. Bouvier owned an estate in East Hampton, located three miles north, where his granddaughter Jac queline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis was a frequent visitor.
After an extended marital separation, Phelan Beale noti ied Edith of their di vorce around 1946 by telegram from Mex ico. Phelan provided Edith with an allowance of $300 ($5,000 today) per month to maintain the property, herself and her daughter Edith Bouvier Beale, who was commonly known as “Little Edie.” Phelan's inancial support even
tually ceased and the two Ediths lost con tact with him. The house and garden fell into disrepair and were overtaken by na ture due to the lack of funds. The two women continued to inhabit the house, where they kept a large number of feral cats and wild animals.
In 1972, the Suffolk County Health Commission issued a notice of eviction, stating the Beales would be unable to live in the house until it was cleaned and basic utilities restored. The news of the order and of the squalor in which the two

“Seeing my poetry published is a great moment. Now no one can doubt my abilities” Ethan Bell
In silence I watch a world all my own
They speak with their hearts in a language unknown
Hands reach out gently their love like a song
In every small gesture I know I belong
They guide me through moments both quiet and bright
With patience and warmth they’re my so t steady light
Though words may escape me their care is my voice
They last orever in my heart’s room.

My Woeful Cove by Willow
Through my many days and nights, I discovered that in my woe ul cove o com ort, the words o poetry uel through me like a gentle stream connecting metaphorical thoughts to an underlying theme. My poems, i brought alive, would erupt as sane as a Greek tale or a haunting dream, as in my room’s dark cavern is where they thrive.
Oh how cynical it is to say that the “darkness” rules my oreign scriptures, bribing Charon and blessing Hades, to flow against the current o my little heart's desire and avoid the eelings that ripped her’s.
I sit beneath a flicker o light branded by its ruining glare. I crawl against the hardwood floor, my spine twisting against the agonizing stare. Back to my voidic home I go, a bliss ul covert o sin ul ink. Dire to reach my woe ul cove, I struggle against the threads I wove and words come spilling out o a phrase I’ve yet to think.
So I sit contently in my little abyss, and strung together above me hangs the rhymes, that I slap together blindly, solely based on the composure o its chimes.
Blind is so I am, in my woe ul cove I stay, until that myth that brings me a touch o calamity balances a cigarette burning the tips o my poem, and leads me astray.

A Salute to our Veterans in Film...
by Evelyn J. Mocbeichel
November 11th. This date is more than just a day off from work or school as it was established as a recognition of our American Veterans. As many of us learned in grade school, the end of World War I was on November 11, 1918 at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. First called Armistice Day, then when war broke out all over Europe a few years after the holiday was created, it was renamed Vet erans Day to honor all Veterans. There are ceremonies and parades all over our country and at Arlington Cemetery in D.C. to continue the tradition of honoring the men and women for their bravery and sacri ice and serving our country. Our town of Montauk and many others on the East End of Long Island also hosts events and commemorations to honor our brave men and women veterans that served in the military.
My father served in the United States Army Air Corps, which was the aerial warfare service component of the army between 1926 and 1941. When aviation became in creasingly vital as part of modern warfare, the Air Force was created in 1947 and the Army Air Corps was dissolved. Then the army became a separate branch.

When I was growing up, there were three kinds of movies my father liked to watch. They were any westerns with John Wayne in it, musicals with plenty of tap dancing and another of his favorites was military themed ilms. On a non school nights I was allowed to stay up later and watch movies with my dad and soon these ilms became my favorites, too, and repeated watching an enjoyable tradition. There were several favorites that I still like to watch when they come on the channels that feature old ilms. If you haven’t seen these, try to ind them and see the artistry of ilms of this era and the true stories about the lead characters featured in the ilms. The actions of these men were so heroic that Hollywood screen writers turned them into block buster ilms in those years post WW II.
Made in 1955, To Hell and Back is the true story of Audie Murphy, the most decorated soldier in U.S. history. The ilm starred Audie Murphy himself and he was as handsome as any screen idol and amazingly talented in his irst acting role. One of the saddest ilms I recall watching was called The Fighting Sullivans, made in 1944. The story was about a very close knit group of ive brothers from Iowa that served on the same ship, the USS Juneau, during World War II. The ship was torpedoed and sunk off of Guadalcanal and all ive brothers perished. To this day it remains the greatest combat related loss of life by one family, at one time in American military history. After this occurrence the Sole Survivor Policy was implemented by the Se lective Service in 1948 that exempted the sole surviving son of a family where one or more sons or daughters had been killed in action, or died in the line of duty while in the military service from being drafted.
Another favorite, starring Gary Cooper of High Noon, For Whom the Bell Tolls and Mr. Deed Goes to Town, is the 1941 ilm Sergeant York. It is the story of a Tennessee farmer who was an expert marksman that is drafted during World War I. York struggles with his paci ist inclinations before becoming one of the most celebrated war heroes. The acting in all three of these ilms is so believable that viewers becomes engrossed, attached and involved with the storyline and well being of the lead char acters and soldiers on the same mission. More than just enter tainment and a ilm to pass a few hours, these movies lend a reality to what our veterans have gone through and are experi encing today, serving in areas around the world.
Remember this on November 11th and thank a veteran you know or if you see one in uniform. Display your American lag proudly. A heartfelt, sincere thank you to all our Veterans!

Audie Murphy in To Hell and Back
PAUL SNYDER’S NOVEMBER EAST END JOURNAL
October is a great month on the East End. I saw “Small Things Like These” at the 32nd Hamptons Inter national Film Festival on October 5th to kick off the month. It was the North American Premiere of the narrative feature starring last year’s Academy Award winning Best Actor Cillian Murphy. Murphy won his Oscar for his portrayal of J. Robert Oppenheimer in Christopher Nolan’s 2023 ilm “Oppeheimer” Nolan won the Best Director Oscar and “Oppenheimer” won the Best Picture Oscar. Cillian Murphy again gives a powerful performance as Bill Furlong a coal merchant in 1985 Ireland. Furlong discovers startling secrets in his town’s convent. The ilm reveals truths about Ire land’s infamous Magdalene Laundries, horri ic asylums run by Roman Catholic institutions from the 1820s until 1996. The ilm captures the torture and horror surrounding the Laundries. Murphy’s “less is more” acting is perfect for the role of a tortured and devoted father during Christmas in 1985 Ireland. Look for Mur phy to be nominated again for Best Actor in the upcom ing awards season. “Small Things Like These” opens in theaters Friday November 8th.
I traveled up island on Wednesday October 9th to Citi Field to watch the NY Mets play their irst ever series clinching game in their ballpark opened on April 13, 2009. With the Mets trailing the Philadelphia Phillies 1 0 in the sixth inning, I was there for the most monumental moment in the 15 year old ballpark. Fran cisco Lindor lifted the Mets to victory over the Phillies with a grand slam. The game ended with Edwin Diaz striking out Phillies slugger Kyle Schwarber with two runners on base. At 8:26pm the ireworks exploded as the Mets moved on to the NLCS against the LA Dodgers!
On the inal day of the HIFF I saw two excellent documentaries. The irst was “Whatever It Takes.” Jenny Carchman’s cyberstalking documentary about eBay security personnel terrorizing Ina and David Steiner in Natick, MA in 2019. The documentary went straight to the top of eBay. Implicating CEO Devin Wenig who shared a link to a post Ina had written about his annual pay and eBay’s chief communica tions of icer, Steve Wymer response “we are going to crush this lady.” A month later Wenig texted “take her down.”Carchman nails the terror the Silicon Valley giant rained down on the middle aged couple. They received deliveries of live spiders, cockroaches, a fu neral wreath and a bloody pig mask. Pornography was sent to their neighbors but was addressed to David. Carchman wraps her documentary up with the public humiliation, irings and jail time for the under lings while Wenig resigned in September of 2019 with a $57 million exit package! Wymer who was ired for cause by eBay runs the Boys and Girls Club of Silicon Valley! I asked Carchman after the ilm about civil litigation which is still ongoing. The sec ond documentary was an encore screening of “Mar tha.” Alina Cho introduced the R.J. Cutler documentary by telling the story of how she put Mar tha Stewart and R.J. Cutler together by inviting Mar tha to dinner at Cutler’s Amagansett house. Alina de initely deserves her Producer credit on this de in

itive documentary of Martha Stewart. It’s also told by Martha. Make sure to watch this Net lix release.
On Friday October 18th I was back at Citi Field for game 5 of the NLCS. Once again the Mets did not disappoint. This time it was Pete Alonso who catapulted the Mets to victory with a irst inning home run. Alonso took Jack Flaherty’s slider which was barely a foot off the ground and deposited it in the center ield section affectionately known as the 7 Line be cause the fans wear orange uniforms that are a tribute to the 7 Line subway to Citi Field. The Mets went on to outslug LA 12 6! Edwin Diaz secured the victory with two innings of relief and at 8:16pm the ireworks exploded when Starling Marte caught the inal out.
The next day I headed up the Hudson Valley to the US Military Academy at West Point, NY. Army came into the game against East Carolina ranked no.23 in the Asso ciated Press poll. It was the irst time they were ranked in the top 25 since 2020. The Black Knights were undefeated 6 0 (5 0 in conference). They dominated the EC Pi rates on an idyllic fall day in front of a packed sold out Michie Stadium. Army’s star quarterback Bryson Daily set two single season
records in the game. One for most rushing touch downs in a season and one for most overall rushing and passing touchdowns. His 6 touchdowns in the game (5 rushing 1 passing) tied Elmer Oliphant’s record from 1916!
Daily is a special player. He had 171 yards rush ing on 31 carries and he passed for 147 yards on 7 10 passing attempts. That’s 318 yards of offense from one player! His go to receiver is Casey Reyn olds from Cold Spring Harbor Long Island. Reynolds caught a 37 yard reception down the middle to help set up Army’s irst score and the Black Knights never looked back. Reynolds ended the game with 85 yards of receptions. The Black Knights smoked the Pirates 45 28. For his performance Daily became the irst Army quarterback ever to earn the Davey O’Brien National Quarterback of the Week award. Bryson also was selected for the Manning Award for Quarterback of the Week. It was his second time being selected this season. If you get a chance to watch Bryson Daily play do it! I also got to see West Point through the eyes of alumni, current students and employees. I watched most of the game with Colonel John R. Martin (USMA class of 1974) and his Wife, longtime family friend, Marsha Martin (Lady cliff College class of 1974.)
The former col lege closed in 1980. It was lo cated adjacent to the US Mili tary Academy at West Point until the USMA acquired it. Marsha and Colonel Martin showed me how they sup port past and current Academy members at their tailgate. It’s setup across from Michie Stadium on the Lusk Reservoir. The memory of current and past USMA graduates, students, employees and civilians coming together after the game will be engraved in my mind forever. God Bless America!

by Evelyn J. Mocbeichel
By now most vaca tioners travelers have vis ited their avorite place or relaxation or have explored new locales be ore the summer ended. Maybe they went to the seashore, on a cruise or to a mountain resort to spend a week or two. Then there are those that pre er the quiet, less crowded times o year to travel or perhaps are not ans o hot weather outings. Some amilies like the autumn or the beauty o nature and the gorgeous oliage to travel to areas where the scen ery o ers magnificent displays to enjoy. Then again others love to wait until winter when this snowy season provides amble time or sports like skiing, snow boarding, snow shoeing or snowmobil ing. Whatever your destination pre erence that you already saw or may have lined up or the coming months, there might be a song that describes that state or location. It is easy to recall many popular songs we liked and used to sing even though we may never have been to that location. I remember one trip I took with our daughter to visit her riends in West Virginia one summer. As we crossed the border into that state, my daughter reached or a CD and popped it into the car’s player. She had put in a John Denver CD and the next thing we heard was …take me home West Virginia, to the place where I belong… She had taken this

Jacqueline and her sister, Lee Radziwill, donated money to make the house habitable and return it to a standard which would allow or the rescission o the eviction order, ul timately saving the house.
That same year Radziwill asked brothers Albert and David Maysles to create a film, including interviews with the Edies, which would document the Bouvier amily's visits to East Hampton during Lee's and Jacqueline's youth. The project was ultimately canceled and the Maysles turned their attention to the Beales, resulting in the 1975 documentary Grey Gardens. A ter the release o the film, Edith and Little Edie continued to reside in the house. Edith died in 1977 and Little Edie remained until she sold the property. The original 1972 ootage eaturing Rad ziwill visiting the Beales was released in 2017 as That Summer.

Dear EarthTalk: What is so called attri bution science and how does it relate to climate change?
~ William C., New York, NY
Attribution science is a rapidly evolv ing field that aims to understand the link between human activities and extreme weather. By discerning the extent to which climate change a ects the requency and intensity o these events, attribution science plays a crucial role in climate re search. Understanding this relationship is essential or developing e ective climate
policies and enhancing global resilience to climate impacts.
Attribution science seeks to quanti y the influence o climate change on specific weather events. It involves the use o so phisticated computer models and exten sive data analysis to compare current climatic conditions with hypothetical sce narios devoid o human induced changes. The primary objective is to determine how climate change alters the probability and severity o extreme weather events.
Key terms in this field include: climate, which re ers to long term atmospheric conditions; climate change, indicating significant changes in these conditions over time; computer models, which sim ulate climate behavior under various scenarios; and data, which provide the empirical basis or these simulations.
There are two main types o attribu tion science: event attribution and source attribution. Event attribution o cuses on how climate change a ects specific extreme weather events. For in stance, human caused climate change significantly increased the likelihood o the 2019 European heatwave and made the 2018 South A rican drought three
times more likely. Moreover, climate change increased the rain all during Hur ricane Harvey by at least 15 percent and nearly doubled the area burned by wild fires in Western US orests. Meanwhile, source attribution identifies the pollutants and activities contributing to climate change. It involves measuring at mospheric concentrations, analyzing emissions data, and conducting modeling studies to pinpoint specific sources o greenhouse gasses.
Attribution science has roots in the 1990s and has advanced considerably with the development o more sophisti cated computer models and statistical methods. These advancements have en hanced its accuracy and reliability, allow ing or more precise connections between human activity and climate related events.
The methodology involves comparing real world data with counter actual models—simulations o the world with out human induced climate change. High quality observational data is crucial or these comparisons, but there are chal lenges, particularly in data scarce regions like developing countries. Future research aims to develop new methods suitable or such regions with limited data, examine regional impacts, and quanti y slow onset phenomena like sea level rise. These ad vancements will enhance our understand ing o climate impacts and in orm more e ec
tive adaptation strategies. Attribution science is crucial or shaping climate pol icies and strategies. Communicating the links between specific weather events and climate change raises public awareness and influences real time decisions. In sights rom attribution studies help com munities build resilience against uture climate risks.

Dear EarthTalk: I live in Massachusetts and o ten walk in the woods. It seems as i there are endless pests and diseases at tacking our native trees. There are so many allen or dead trees in the woods now. Is there hope or our orests?
~ Molly Goodwin, via e mail
In colonial days, wood was a hot com modity in New England. It was so widely used or agriculture and other industries that, between the 17th and 20th centuries, several New England states saw a 60 per cent reduction in woodlands. Today, roughly 80 percent o New England is wooded again, but over 99 percent o the trees were planted within the last 100 years. These new growth orests are re markably ho mogenous, being evenly spaced, similar in height and size, and pri marily o the same species. Though trees have signifi cantly rallied, financial sup port or New England land conservation has dropped by hal since 2008. The annually con served land area declined six old in just a decade, rom 333,000 acres in the early 2000s to just 50,000 acres since 2010. A Harvard study showed that New England is losing 65 acres o woods daily to devel opment, hal which is related to increasing residential demands. Beyond devel opment threats, the lack o biodiversity in these homogenous new growth orests makes them particularly vulnerable to en vironmental changes, invasive species and in ectious diseases.
Rising temperatures put new growth trees at risk o droughts, soil deterioration and extreme weather events. Invasive southern insects like the gypsy moth and Southern pine beetle are migrating north ward as historically colder climates begin to warm. These bugs de oliate trees, bore bark to eed on tree sap, and cause needle loss. And invasive plants are now outcom peting native ones by releasing enzymes into the soil that limit the native plant growth and orm dense thickets that shade out native species.
Citizens, scientists and ecologists must work together to prevent a ‘bare New England.’ State and local govern ments have the power to strengthen con servation e orts. For one, the

ESCAPE FROM PARADISE
rounding tall, narrow buildings, is a marvel of me dieval engineering. The facades of the ancient houses, clad in tiles in the traditional Norman style, added to the area's undeni able charm. As we strolled along the waterfront, we discovered a lively promenade lined with cafes and bustling with ac tivity, despite the gloomy weather. The sound of seagulls illed the air as we took in the sights and sounds of the his toric harbor.
Our explo ration revealed a plethora of his toric landmarks, including the 15th century Church of Saint Etienne, now home to the town's maritime museum, and the impressive salt storage buildings, or 'Greniers à sel', which dated back to the 17th cen tury. These structures, with their remarkable wooden roofs, stood as testament to Hon leur's rich maritime past, when the town was a major player in the French naval leet. Our guide regaled us with stories of the town's history, from its role in the Hundred Years War to its in luence on the French Renaissance. But the true pièce de résistance was the Church of Saint Catherine, the largest wooden church in France. Con structed at the end of the Hundred Years War, when stone was in short supply, the church's wooden frame work was reminiscent of an upturned ship's hull, al lowing for an abundance of natural light to lood the interior. Its separate bell tower, too heavy for the church to support, added to the building's unique charm. As we sat in the pews, taking in the beauty of the church, I could almost hear the echoes of centuries past, the whispers of the sailors and ishermen who had once worshipped here.
With our guided tour complete, we were granted an hour of free time to wander Hon leur's narrow, cobblestone streets. We soon stumbled upon Le Bistrot à Crêpes, a delightful eatery on a corner lot by the harbor. Despite the bustling atmosphere, we were greeted with warm smiles and ef icient service. Over steaming cups of strong Darjeeling tea and a plate of delectable apricot crêpes, we felt as though we had discovered a hidden gem. The crêpes, thin and deli cate, melted in our mouths as we savored each bite.
As our time in Hon leur drew to a close, we reluctantly boarded the bus for the return journey to Le Havre. The drive took us across the impressive Nor mandy Bridge, which spanned the Seine estuary, offering breathtaking views of the river below. As the ms Rotterdam set sail once more, we re lected on our day in Hon leur. The 'Taste of Nor mandy' tour had been a resounding success, introduc ing us to the region's rich history, renowned spirits, and captivating charm. Though Paris is undoubtedly
a marvel, we knew we had made the right decision in exploring this lesser known gem of the Normandy coast. As we sailed into the sunset, we toasted over dinner to the unforgettable memories we had forged in the heart of western Europe, with the spirit of Nor mandy still burning brightly in our hearts.
Until next month from another interesting loca tion.
Yours in travel, Love,
Ingrid

Massachusetts Community Preservation Act permits towns to impose a surcharge of up to three percent on property taxes which is then diverted to preservation. Participation is voluntary, but 56 percent of towns have opted in.
Sustainable forestry is needed to prevent more tree loss. Selective cutting removes speci ic trees rather than clear cutting. Building upwards instead of outwards re duces land clearance. Improving paper and wood recy cling efforts reduces the demand for raw materials from forests. Removing invasive species would improve soil health and enhance ecosystem resilience. However, the process is labor intensive and costly. Despite these chal lenges, inding the right balance between conservation, demand reduction, and invasive species removal may be the key to preserving the New England forests.

Dear EarthTalk: What’s the story with so called “dead beat dams” causing ecosystem problems across the coun try? ~ George H., Seattle, WA
The invention of dams was certainly one of human ity’s most innovative feats of engineering. Able to harness power from the water currents, reserving water and ef fectively controlling loods, dams have been crucial to civ ilizations since 3,000 B.C. Modern dams are made of concrete and steel, built to withstand tons of water pres sure. But over time, many dams have fallen into disrepair and no longer serve their intended purposes. These dams lost to time are called “deadbeat dams.”
Deadbeat dams disrupt surrounding ecosystems by altering water temperature and hindering ish migration patterns. When dams impede river the lows, water tem peratures increase, decimating ish sensitive to tempera ture changes and prevent ish migrations, further damaging their chances of survival.
Loss of ish populations can devastate the entire sur rounding ecosystem as they are the primary food source for many animals including birds and mammals, so they are integral to maintaining balance in the food web. Com munities that rely on ish in their diet can also be largely affected. The Kwoneesum Dam was abandoned in the 1980s and has since then obstructed 6.5 miles of the Washougal River, preventing the Native nations’ access to the salmon and steelhead population that nourished them for generations.
sulted in “tons of sediment laden with toxic PCBs” wash ing downstream and “affecting human and wildlife health.”
Effective and safe dam removal is a large and costly challenge, often tak ing many years and mil lions of dollars. When removing dams, workers must be careful to ensure debris and sediment from the construction site are not released into the envi ronment, and to test for possible contaminants within the sediment. In 1973, the Fort Edward Dam on New York’s Hud son River was removed without its sediments tested for contaminants.
According to the Columbia Climate School, this re
Across the U.S., 20,000 of the 90,000 total dams are considered unsafe. But due to logistical and inancial dif iculties, dam removal has been slow: Since 1912, only 2,000 dams have been removed. In recent years, native communities have made headway in advocating for dead beat dam removals. Through extensive efforts on their part and that of policymakers, millions of dollars have been raised to fund dam removal across the Paci ic North west. The Seattle Times reports that, in 2024, $40 million from a $75 million Washington state act will go towards “nine [dam removal] projects led by tribal nations.” To en sure the longevity of our precious natural resources, deadbeat dams is an issue we can no longer overlook. Their presence is a constant disruption to nature and to those dependent on nature.

Dear EarthTalk: Dear EarthTalk: Are we really all ex posed to many hazardous chemicals that come off the packaging our food travels in? What can we do to mini mize our exposure to these potential toxins in our food?
~ William Freleigh, Newark, DE
A large percentage of our food packaging contains toxic Food Contact Chemicals (FCCs), which are chemicals that come into contact with foods during manufacturing, packaging or transportation. Notable FCCs include BPA, BPS and BPF, all commonly found in soda and soup cans, plastic food linings, and DVDs, and plasticizers or phthalates, which are widely used to make plastic products more lexible and durable. At least 25 per cent of FCCs, including BPAs and plasticizers, can be found in the human body due to exposure to food packaging, and can be extremely hazardous to our health. Some health risks include harm to the im mune system, cancer, liver toxicity, thyroid effects and reproductive toxicity. BPAs are especially haz ardous for women, as they are also toxic to the ovaries and uterus.
Due to the prevalence of FCCs in so much food packaging, it is impossible to fully avoid them. Ho wever, there are ways to reduce our exposure to toxic chemicals in our food. For one, buy food that is stored in glass jars or BPA free boxes instead of

Dear Editor:
As we all enjoy the gorgeous fall weather and less traf ic, it is important to look back over the summer and highlight improvements made to our community and our quality of life. The East Hampton Community Alliance (www.easthamptonalliance.org) was established over ive years ago to create awareness about the economic and safety importance of the East Hampton Airport. Working together with members of all communities on the East End, including Montauk, airport operators and stakeholders, EHCA spearheaded the effort to create a Pilot Pledge. Supported by most pilots and operators, this voluntary Pledge commits signatories to lying neighborly with curfews, routes and other operational requirements. The success of the Pledge is demonstrated in over 90% cooperation, fewer complaints and less traf ic into the airport. All of this has contributed to a much more productive and less lambastic dialogue about the future of East Hampton Airport. Most importantly, the success of the Pilot Pledge shows our neighbors that the Hamptons aviation community is committed to working together to address reasonable noise, environmental and traf ic concerns. EHCA looks forward to continuing to work with the Montauk community to make the East End an even better place to live.

Veterans service organizations, amended the Act of 1938 by striking out the word “Armistice” and inserting in its place the word “Veterans.” With the approval of this legislation (Public Law 380) on June 1, 1954, November 11th became a day to honor American Veterans of all wars.
Later that same year, on October 8th, Pres ident Dwight D. Eisenhower issued the irst Vet erans Day Proclamation which stated: “In order to insure proper and widespread observance of this anniversary, all Veterans, all Veterans’ or ganizations, and the entire citizenry will wish to join hands in the common purpose. Toward this end, I am designating the Administrator of Vet erans’ Affairs as Chairman of a Veterans Day Na tional Committee, which shall include such other persons as the Chairman may select, and which will coordinate at the national level necessary planning for the observance. I am also request ing the heads of all departments and agencies of the Executive branch of the Government to assist the National Committee in every way possible.”
1958...In 1958, the White House advised VA’s General Counsel that the 1954 designation of the VA Administrator as Chairman of the Veterans Day National Committee applied to all subse quent VA Administrators. Since March 1989 when VA was elevated to a cabinet level depart

1968...The Uniform Holiday Bill (Public Law 90 363 (82 Stat. 250)) was signed on June 28, 1968, and was intended to ensure three day weekends for Federal employees by celebrating four national holidays on Mondays: Washing ton’s Birthday, Memorial Day, Veterans Day, and Columbus Day. It was thought that these ex tended weekends would encourage travel, recre ational and cultural activities and stimulate greater industrial and commercial production. Many states did not agree with this decision and continued to celebrate the holidays on their original dates.
1971...The irst Veterans Day under the new law was observed with much confusion on Oc tober 25, 1971. It was quite apparent that the commemoration of this day was a matter of his toric and patriotic signi icance to a great num ber of our citizens, and so on September 20th, 1975, President Gerald R. Ford signed Public Law 94 97 (89 Stat. 479), which returned the annual observance of Veterans Day to its original date of November 11, beginning in 1978. This action supported the desires of the overwhelm ing majority of state legislatures, all major vet erans’ service organizations and the American people.

metal cans and plastic containers, which are more likely to contain FCCs. Also, wash your hands often and always before eating, steer clear of fast food and fatty foods and eat fresh, unprocessed foods, especially organic fruits and vegetables. You can also reduce risks when preparing food by using wooden, stainless steel or silicone kitchenware, and avoiding non stick pans, disposable packaging, packaging with recycling codes 3 or 7, and black plastic kitchenware.
FCCs are also prevalent in cleaning products and other household items. You can reduce your exposure to chemicals in these products by using glass or stainless steel reusable water bottles, buying fragrance free soaps, cosmetics and cleaners, refusing paper receipts and avoiding vinyl carpets and fabrics. It is also recommended that you keep your windows open for ventilation whenever possible, as synthetic chemicals often dete riorate into dust particles that are easily inhaled.
Unfortunately, the only way that we will be able to permanently get rid of FCCs is to campaign for them to be banned by the government and by national retailers. Several volunteer led campaigns have already spoken out on the issue, and a lot of headway has been made in banning speci ic toxic chemicals, including BPAs, in California. If you would like to help can vas for the banning of toxic chemicals in food packaging, consider volun teering for Take Out Toxics or other local campaigns that are pressuring their local governments and retailers to call for chemical bans.

At The Senior Center
by Patria Baradi Pacis
The tourist are gone now and the seniors at the Play house where the Senior Nutrition Center is located, are especially happy because they can make a left out of their driveway onto a two way street, instead of making a right and a right just to be able to get to their destina tion. Montauk's population of about 50,000 during Me morial Day up to Labor Day, drops down to about 5,000 in the fall.
Everyone is happy to have Montauk all to them selves, including bargain hunters who take advantage of hotels and stores that have their end of the season rates and sales.
Newly hired Executive Director Anna Ostroff makes the Center more fun by having lunch with us and getting to know us better. Chef Don gets many ‘Compliments to the Chef” greetings by the seniors because the food really taste good.
