History Makers Teaching HistoryBy Kitty Merrill

Most people learn about war in school or from history books. This week they have a chance to learn about the Vietnam War from combat veterans who made history. Through Sunday the Dignity Memo-rial Vietnam Wall will be on view at Calverton National Cemetery.

According Charles Spencer, the chair of the Dignity Memorial Viet-nam Wall committee, Calverton is the largest veteran cemetery in the United States. Over a quarter of a million people are interred there, a lot of them Vietnam vets. In fact, Long Island boasts the larg-est concentration of veterans in the nation. What better place to display

a memorial honoring them?On Monday a procession escorted

by motorcycles transported the three quarter scale replica of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Wall in Washington D. C. across the island to Calverton. Veterans, as well as

staff from Home Depot and local carpenters unions volunteered to bolt together panels that bear the names of the over 58,000 Americans who died or went missing during the war.

Today marks the first time the

Dignity Memorial Vietnam Wall is exhibited at a national cemetery. Last fall – on Long Island again -- was the first time the wall was displayed at a veteran’s health care facility, when the traveling memo-rial stopped at the VA Hospital in Northport.

Northport and Calverton are two firsts, Dennis Krudler, President of the Support Committee at Calverton National Cemetery, one of the spon-sors of the event, reported. “The impact of being at the cemetery is going to be overwhelming,” he predicted.

“It’s just a wall with a bunch of names on it, but the stories behind those names are what makes it come alive,” Spencer said. Through-out the week Vietnam combat veterans will be on hand to offer tours of the wall, answer questions and provide insight into what it was like to be “in country.” One of them, Spencer reported, was a long-range reconnaissance soldier, a scout. “Imagine what it was like, going through those jungles at night alone at 18 or 20 years old,” he mused. Visitors can find out this week.

They can also see the longest name on the wall, or learn who was the youngest to give his life for the country.

There are women’s names on the wall, those of combat nurses.

Spencer recalled meeting a wom-an holding a list during an earlier exhibition of the wall. She wanted to look up names from a list she held. When Spencer, himself a vet, asked to take the list to help find the names, she wouldn’t relinquish it. A former combat nurse, she’d been carrying it with her since the war ended. It held the name of her last 10 patients. She saw four of their names on the wall, and, after years had passed, learned the six others survived.

According to a release from the cemetery support committee, trans-porting and exhibiting a memorial that is 240 feet long and eight feet high is a logistical feat. Still, Krudler noted it’s traveled to Long Island and been exhibited at more sites here than anywhere else since it was first crafted over 20 years ago. It’s visited more than 200 locations throughout the country. When it was displayed at the VA in North-port in October, Krudler recalled, “It was the worst weather we had all winter and still between 1500 and 1600 people came to view it.”

The wall will be open for viewing 24 hours a day beginning today and running through Sunday. Opening ceremonies will be held Friday at 6 PM, with closing ceremonies Sunday at 3 PM. There will be the traditional playing of “Reveille” each

If I was told by a doctor that I had one day to live, I wouldn’t even take the time to give the sad news to my loved ones.

I would jump into a cab and rush to the closest airport and I would run up to the Cinnabon store in the airport lobby and eat about 20 of those ooey, gooey, delicious cinnamon buns.

Whenever I pass a Cinnabon store (and there is one in every airport) I can smell the cinnamon and sugar from 20 feet away and it takes every bit of willpower I have not to do a half gainer into a sticky, sweet cinnamon bun.

But I have never succumbed to the temptation because I know that Cinnabons are filled with sugar and gook that is bad for me. So I’m waiting for the day when I’m about to die and have nothing to lose.

I write this so that you know that when it comes to food I know what’s good for me and what food I should avoid. And also to let you know a

IF I HAD ONE DAY TO LIVEfear that I have: that someday Mayor Michael Bloomberg will break my heart over a lamb chop.

I love lamb chops and, if the truth were known, I love Mayor Bloomberg. I think he would make a wonderful president. Far better than the handsome, clueless bozo with the great voice that we have in office now.

But the issue is not something as trivial as who is going to lead us out of this mess and save the country. The issue is lamb chops.

I love lamb chops.But lamb chops are filled with

delicious fat. Show me a lean lamb chop and I will show you a lousy lamb chop.

So we all know that sooner or later that lamb chop fat is going to get into my bloodstream and the next thing you know, kaput!

If I grab my chest and die on the spot, that’s good for the city, but if I grab my chest and live that means

hospital stays and the next thing you know everyone has to pay for my stupid love of lamb chops.

This is the basis of every new Bloomberg food rule.

Now I feel I must reveal that my cholesterol count is under 120. I have the cholesterol count of one of those Peruvian Indians whose diet consists of eating bark off trees. Talk about roughage.

Sooner or later Mayor Bloomberg is going to go after meat, all sorts of meat. It has fat and any pimply faced, emaciated vegetarian will tell you meat is a killer. I suspect Bloomberg will ban all meat, but as he usually does, he will start with a small ban. So I will be allowed to buy one lamb chop from my butcher, but it must be trimmed well and I can only get one lamb chop per week.

You remember how Nanny Bloomberg first started to take care of us. He went after smoking. Banned cigarettes from bars and restaurants and, since everyone hates smoking, Bloomberg had everyone’s vote on killing cigarettes. Government going after something or someone everyone hates. That’s how it always starts.

Then came salt. Bloomberg hates salt. It’s . . . it’s . . . it’s . . . so salty. And it causes high blood pressure.

Bloomberg lost my parents’ vote on salt. They both lived into their 90s and my dad outlived, by 20 years, one doctor who told him to cut out salt.

When my dad’s doctor kicked the bucket my dad said, “Maybe if he had put some salt on his food he would still be alive today.”

Then, of course, Bloomberg went after trans fats in restaurants and food stores and that meant we should not eat potato chips or just about any salty, greasy snacks that taste good.

Now he’s after the 16-ounce bottles of sodas and soft drinks in his latest effort to fight obesity in this day of triple bacon cheeseburgers. He’s proposing a ban on large servings of soda and other sugary drinks.

Bloomberg is a smart man who doesn’t want to accept the fact that, sadly, sweets and salt and fats are the only good things in the lives of many poor obese people.

The truth is you can’t legislate good health. There is a reason McDonald’s

is so successful. People love the taste of their lousy food. (For the record: I’m addicted to their Sausage Egg McMuffin.) Take McDonald’s food away from obese people and they will find somebody else’s tasty bad food to destroy their bodies with.

Help young people find jobs and a better life and the smart ones will have more to live for and will change the way they eat. The dumb ones won’t work and will continue to eat bad foods and they will die younger. That’s the way it’s been since the beginning of time.

**************************************I made a great chicken recipe on

Father’s Day that you should make as soon as you can before Mayor Bloomberg bans soy sauce.

It’s a favorite in the Philippines. And it was given to me by Cristine Esguerra, a very talented young creative director in my ad agency.

CHICKEN ADOBOThis recipe works for a whole

chicken, quartered.

Ingredients:Garlic, seven to eight cloves1/3 cup white vinegar1/3 cup soy sauceBlack peppercorns2 sprigs of thyme or 1/4 teaspoon

dry thymeOlive oil

Preparation:*Marinate chicken in vinegar and

soy sauce overnight or for at least three hours.

*Remove chicken from marinade and pan-fry chicken in garlic and olive oil to brown and slightly caramelize.

*Put the chicken in a pot with the oil, garlic, peppercorns and thyme. Pour all the marinade over the chicken and bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 30 minutes, turning meat every so often.

*Remove chicken from pot and boil down sauce until it’s thick and super salty.

*Strain and spoon sauce over chicken.

*Serve with rice!

Officials hope it will be operational by the end of the week. “We’re down to days and hours instead of years, months, and weeks,” East Hampton Town Counci lman Dominick Stanzione, who’s most recently spearheaded the installation of an air traffic control tower at East

Hampton Airport for the last several years, reported.

I t ’ s been a long journey

to the project’s completion, airport manager Jim Brundige acknowledged during a tour of

the facility last Friday, seven years, to be exact. Noise abatement advocates and town officials have been pushing for the tower for even longer.

A road marked by stops and starts saw its most recent delay earlier this year. The company hired to install and operate the tower, a firm called Robinson Aviation, planned to use a stock pedestal for the modular tower. Then the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration enacted new rules that prompted a redesign. East Hampton has the distinction of being the first airport to comply with the new OSHA regs.

The steel pedestal has anchors sunk 18 feet into the ground. The “cab” which includes digs for staff measuring about 17 feet long by 6 feet wide and affords a 360-degree view, was lifted onto the pedestal last week. It’s about 20 feet high.

Brundige explained that the site – adjacent to the East Hampton Executive Terminal – was selected to provide the optimal view of the airport environs. “The FAA, my office and the air traffic control company looked at various sites to find what possible obstacles there were and we picked this one. It’s the best to see all approaches, and ends of runways and all the traffic patterns,” he said.

Neighbor Ben Krupinski has allowed the town to dig a trench for telephone, electric and cable wires. “We’re very grateful to him,” Stanzione said. “Otherwise we’d have to go through Industrial Road,” Brundige explained.

The control room is accessed by a ladder. It’s pretty cozy in there, with just enough room for two operators. Technician Kevin Withers from Robinson Aviation explained that both operators will monitor weather conditions, then split controlling chores. One focuses on local approaches and departures while his colleague handles taxiing aircraft on the ground. The plan is to have the tower manned during peak traffic hours, not around the clock.

The town wi l l pay about $350,000 per year for the tower and outsourced air traffic controllers. The money will come out of the airport’s surplus fund. Stanzione

WATER MILL, NY

By Emily Toy“We are not only people of the

land, but we are people of the water.”

So said Shinnecock Indian Nation member Chenae Bullock, who along with tribe members, will canoe to Mashantucket Pequot and Mohegan territories in Connecticut on Saturday morning, uniting the sister tribes and forming an inter-tribal Mishoon Society. Mishoon means canoe in Shinnecock.

This will “help to regain the culture as canoe people,” Bullock mentioned.

The journey begins on Thursday, when paddlers will leave Shinnecock and travel to West Woods in Hampton Bays. From there, on Friday morning, the trip continues on to Conscience Point in Orient, historically the first point of contact between the Shinnecock and the settlers.

“We will make peace before we continue on with the journey,” Bullock said. “There wil l be a ceremony before we leave for Connecticut. There will be drumming and singing, the elders will come with their wisdom and their prayers. And there will be youth present,” Bullock stressed. “Because if you’re trying to resurge a culture and tradition, you need to

Shinnecock Paddle For Traditionhave youth present.”

On Saturday, paddlers from Shinnecock wil l canoe from Orient to the Stoddard Bill State Park in Connecticut for the final landing where members of the Mashantucket Pequot and other New England tribes will be ashore to greet them.

A support boat will be tailing the paddlers the entire journey. A traditional fire at the Pequot Longhouse will follow.

On Sunday morning, the Mashantucket Pequot are invited to join the Shinnecock onward to Mohegan.

“In forming an inter-tribal Mishoon Society, our goal is to bring back our traditional ways of gathering and sharing our teachings,” Bullock said.

The Shinnecock, along with other east coast tribes, have an ancient and spiritual history of canoeing, according to Bullock.

Last year, the Northeast Coastal Indian people were invited to participate in the Annual Tribal Canoe Journey, an event that’s been taking place for 25 years. Members of the Shinnecock Nation participated, paddling from Seattle to the Swinomish people in Washington state. They were the only tribe representing the East Coast.

“As individual tribes and people, we all have battles,” Bullock said. “But ultimately we have to live together. Canoeing can bring that back to us, it can bring us back to our way of living.”

On the heels of an aborted outsourcing effort, it appears East Hampton Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson is taking a different tack when it comes to the town’s Information Technology department.

Last Friday morning, town employees were surprised to find a “staff satisfaction” survey in their mailboxes. Department heads had been directed to pass the surveys out and return them in a sealed envelope by Monday morning. They had to fill out separate “department head” surveys.

So stated a letter from the town’s “Internal Audit Division” or “Division of Internal Audit,” depending on which document is read. The town’s chief auditor Charlene Kagel was

IT Survey “Inappropriate”listed as the sender of the letter, but it doesn’t bear any signature.

None of the employees who spoke to The Independent had ever heard of a “Division of Internal Audit.” Neither had Councilwoman Sylvia Overby or Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc. Asked if he could say when the division was formed, Van Scoyoc said, “I was hoping you could. As far as I know there isn’t one. You would think it would require a resolution or at least a town board discussion.”

Van Scoyoc said he was “disturbed” when he learned about the survey. “That’s not an approach I would take . . . are we trying to assess the efficiency of the department or are we trying to vote IT off the island?” The councilman wondered if the so-called division was going to send similar

surveys out checking the efficiency of the town attorney’s office or the budget office or the human resources department. “If so,” he continued, “isn’t that something the town board should be talking about as a policy? If not, why are we singling out this one department?”

Van Scoyoc reported that he expressed his reservations in an email to colleagues on the town board. He said Wilkinson responded by forwarding his resume showing 35 years’ worth of management experience and suggesting Van Scoyoc “try to understand how to manage.”

The councilman, who’s been interacting with the IT department since 1996 when he was first appointed to a town advisory board, chortled as he related the contents of the email.

The survey, which has been described as “nothing but a push poll,” asks respondents to rate their level of satisfaction in such categories as timeliness of responses to inquiries, turnaround time for resolving problems, and ability to solve problems. It also asks respondents to rate the importance of faster response and turnaround time. “Who wouldn’t want a faster response time?” Van

Scoyoc asked rhetorically.“This isn’t what I asked for, when I

asked for a needs assessment,” Overby said. “This is a customer satisfaction survey.”

Asking employees to rate one another, the councilwoman opined, “doesn’t seem to be an appropriate way for government to work. This type of thing fosters discord, not harmony.”

Last month Wilkinson sponsored a measure that, if approved, would have issued requests for proposals from private firms to take over IT tasks for the town. The resolution failed, with Overby and Van Scoyoc asking for further consideration and public discussion before they would consider outsourcing.

Wilkinson did not return requests for comment. Kagel pointed to the resolution appointing her as the move that created the Division of Internal Audit. The February resolution, which both Overby and Van Scoyoc voted for, states Kagel “will lead an Auditing and Accounting Unit within the purview of the Budget Office to supervise internal audits, internal reviews, and various accounting and other finance related activities as necessary.” It doesn’t officially create a distinct division.

When Riverhead’s Erik Divan and Daniel O’Neill claimed first place in the 2012 SRAA National Rowing Championship it was a promise fulfilled. After all, after coming in second place in the same event last year, the rowers, who are upcoming seniors at Riverhead High School, vowed to earn the top prize this time around.

Divan and O’Neill have been rowing together for almost three years. They were considered favorites to win last year, and although finishing respectably in second place, O’Neill said, “it was a disappointment.” When asked if it affected their training regiment, he said they “pushed harder and trained not just more frequently, but smarter, focusing on what we needed to improve.”

The final on May 26 was a culmination of matches that played out over two weekends. O’Neill said the heats were “not so challenging, but the final was very close.” In a 1500-meter sprint, the locals found themselves behind another boat for the first 1400 meters. Their competition was a boat they had beaten the week before. Divan said the other team was “very nice, but they studied our race plan and planned for it.”

Riverhead Students Win National Rowing ChampionshipDuring the f inal , f inding

themselves behind, it came down to the wire. O’Neill instructed Divan to commence power strokes earlier than planned. “Honestly, it was the closest race we’ve ever had,” Divan related. Ultimately, they powered ahead by a whisker, winning the race by .6 seconds.

The team’s training schedule was grueling to say the least, making the trek every morning to Westhampton Beach, where they were usually out on Aspatuck Creek by 7 AM. The two work out approximately eight times per week with one day of rest. They row roughly 18 miles in the morning, and then hit the gym after school. The day off, Divan said, “Helps but we don’t need more. Our bodies get the recuperation they need, but it’s the long distances in practice that helps us in the races.”

The two are obviously committed to their sport, but their efforts are equally steadfast in the classroom.

The pair did not start rowing competitively until high school. After seeing the potential advantage rowing could offer in terms of college recruiting, with both mentioning top ivy league schools recruiting family and friends, the long road ahead was an easy one

to take. O’Neill commented that while it

is the combination of strong rowing and academics that will help get them into college, “academics are more important,” adding, “it is called a student-athlete, not an athlete-student. Most of the schools we’re looking at with light weight programs are all very competitive academically.”

The ir e f for ts d id not go unnoticed. Recently, New York State Senator Ken LaValle honored the boys on the senate floor. The

accolade was “kind of a shock,” as Divan pointed out, as they “haven’t gotten that much recognition, so it was really nice to get this resolution that we’ll both remember.” Not knowing a rule that they would not be allowed in the chamber without proper attire, the two were relieved to have luckily worn suit jackets.

It’s a long road, but the boys believe rowing is something other aspiring student-athletes should consider. “If you’re committed and put in the effort, it can really take you places,” Divan said.

No one was hurt, though those motorists who are less inclined towards patience might have seen blood pressure spiking into the red zone, as accidents that closed roads snarled traffic and meant hours of delay bookended the weekend.

On Friday morning the eastbound lane of Sunrise Highway near the Shinnecock Canal was closed for close to three hours after a trailer hitch assembly failed, jack-knifing a camping trailer across two lanes. Traffic was diverted onto Montauk Highway, and none of the occupants of the vehicle pulling the trailer was injured.

No injuries reported Sunday either, when a forklift went sailing off a flatbed truck on Lower 7 Ponds Road in Watermill. It was a little before 11 AM when Southampton Town Police were alerted to an MVA on Lower 7 Ponds at the intersection with Head of Pond Road. It appears a

A Camper, A Forklift And Soggy Seamen

flat bed truck transporting a forklift may not have had the balance correct, police said. The forklift came off the bed of the truck as it made the right turn onto Lower 7 Ponds.

Lower 7 Ponds Road, part of a popular back roads route out of the Hamptons, was closed for five hours. No tickets were issued.

The roads weren’t the only locale of travel drama over the weekend. On Saturday STPD received a call reporting a vessel in distress in Great Peconic Bay. The caller, a 62 year old Brooklyn boater, told police that he and three other fishermen had left Mattituck for a day on the water and were worried they’d end up in the water. They’d anchored near Buoy 24 and noticed water flooding into the lower cabin of the 24-foot boat.

Southampton Bay Constable Richard Franks responded in Marine 3 and immediately took the vessel in tow trying to get it to shallow water,

cops said. Bay Constable Mark Ruocco aboard Marine 4 arrived shortly afterward and removed all four subjects from the vessel due to the amount of water onboard. Sea Tow was called and arrived shortly thereafter with three pumps to

control the flooding. No injuries were reported.

Sea Tow towed the vessel to New Suffolk and Southampton Marine 4 transported the passengers to the same location.

Southampton Town Comptroller Len Marchese says he’s here to help.

In an e f f o r t t o improve efficiencies and “clean things up,” the town’s chief of finance, who was appointed back in March, met with the Southampton Town Board to discuss proposed legislation to codify the powers and duties of his position last Friday.

Marchese Making A MarkPowers and duties would include

establishing sound financial policies and procedures and properly recording financial data, of course, but also fine-tuning some other areas at town hall.

“I’m really opting to establish the office of the comptroller,” Marchese said at Friday’s work session. “There isn’t the ownership of people in other places like there is here.”

The proposed legislation would

include providing departments with support in utilizing requisition and purchasing financial software. It would also serve the goal of streamlining certain aspects, mostly purchasing, in respective departments.

During the discussion about the operating budget process for 2013, the comptroller reported that when the town makes purchases, which

are mostly cars and computers, it is done in an inefficient way.

“We can really streamline the process,” he said.

Marchese said he is also currently drafting a capital project manual.

The manual will help in the long term with the town getting its financial footing, the comptroller said.

“It takes affirmative action rather than borrowing,” he said.

Marchese’s proposed resolution is scheduled for a public hearing on July 10.

1932

We’ve Got History!

1932 was the year that Bing Crosby recorded his hit song, “Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?”. The song re�ected the plight of many Americans who were out of work due to the Great Depression. But dimes were even more scarce than the song suggests, and even Bing probably didn’t know that the US Mint had suspended their production and there are no 10 cent pieces dated 1932 or 1933.

The history of the New York Yankees is so full of records that many of them that might have beensigni�cant bright spots at other franchises seem to fall into relative obscurity in the Bronx. Acase in point is that the 1932 Yankees had no fewer than nine future Hall of Famers on theroster, a record that still stands. If you count Bill Mcarthy, the Manager, it’s 10!Left to Right, Top: Mgr.

Sacks will discuss what the disease is, where it is found, and the difference between Celiac Sprue and non-celiac gluten intolerance. She will also address why a gluten-free diet is generally helpful and how to manage a gluten-free diet, and how to navigate all of the gluten free products on the market.

SPECIAL APRIL EVENTSPECIAL JUNE EVENT

It’s almost here – the big July Fourth weekend that heralds the beginning of the Super Summer Season.

You’re on your way here, but you’re worried that you might not fit in, that you aren’t cool enough to be in The Hamptons.

Let’s face it – no disrespect, but you are probably right. We are the Epicenter of Hipness. Movie starlets, rock musicians, hedge fund managers, world-renowned artists – these people will be your neighbors.

FOR GOD’S SAKE DON’T BLOW IT.Men, take it from someone who was

born here, and follow these steps carefully and the ladies like Paris and Lindsay won’t be able to keep their hands off you.

ATTIRE:It all starts with how you look.

First, your footwear: really, really cool people wear Flip-Flops, but make sure they are either bright orange or lime green. There is nothing cooler

How To Score In The Hamptonsthan walking down Jobs Lane and hearing your footwear make that distinctive “flip flop” sound (duh, yes, that’s where they got their name from!).

Shorts are cool, but not nearly as cool as Clam Diggers. Many years ago local bubbies plied their craft in our waters, living off the sustenance the sea provided. Invariably, the outfit of choice when digging for clams was (duh!) Clam Diggers. The paisley ones were particularly popular with our Baymen, and the hot babes love the local Baymen because they make a mean chowder.

Sure, Lynyrd Skynyrd t-shirts are always cool, but you need to go another way. Forget Ralph Lauren, no one wears that stuff anymore – although I am still a bit partial to my puce cashmere sweater. You want to look west to our brothers in Hawaii for true inspiration. That’s because nothing says “Hamptons” like a Hawaiian shirt, and take it

from me, the louder the colors the better. Basically, men, you want to look like a parrot. That’s what the ladies dig.

Hats are important, because the hot Hampton sun can fry a man quicker than a moth in a bug zapper. More important, you’ve been going bald since you were 14 and the ladies dig a manly man, that is, a man with a lot of hair – or a cool hat. Please, I beg, no more baseball caps turned backwards. This went out of style when white people started doing it. Unless you’re Al Capone or Justin Timberlake, lose the fedora, too.

I suggest a straw hat, but not any straw hat – a Mexican Sombrero is what you want. This says “fiesta” to babes, which leads to “siesta” and finally “piñata.” Nothing says Hamptons like a piñata, trust me on this.

Now to the beach we go. Ladies know that beach fashion dictates they wear the tiniest bikini they can find or just eschew bathing suits and go au natural, like Eve used to do back in the day. Men look best in Speedos, preferably a couple sizes too small. As a general rule, your belly should flop over your tiny suit – babes dig that.

You’ll want to smell good, too. In the old days locals would stuff seaweed under their arms and down their pants, but now we can use sun block lotion. I recommend the coconut-flavored extra greasy stuff, which guards against the sun’s rays and also discourages sharks from attacking you (Oh yes, that myth about not having sharks out here? It’s a myth.)

HOW TO ACT:Babes like the loud, obnoxious

type, because there are so many out here. Babes also like being called “chicks” or “meat.” There is no

simple trick to attracting women, guys – it’s an art. It’s a look that says I’m hot. Here are some surefire pick up lines that the ultra-cool guys use to pick up Paris and Lindsay.

“Hey you, wanna be my Fresh Meat tonight?”

“You’re hot. Take me to the Palm, I love surf and turf.”

“What do you say we hop into my ’98 Sentra and we just take off?”

“You’re in luck. I only have five minutes and I hate foreplay.”

“You remind me of my Aunt Gert except you’ve got more infected moles on your neck.“

WHERE TO GO:Everyone goes to the Surf Club.

Everyone drives an SUV. You’re different. You know real chicks like to be adventurous, let their hair down, let their freak flag fly.

Once I took a date on an early morning trail walk where in we identified several species of butterflies, saw numerous rare birds, and stood only feet away from a newborn fawn. My date was enraptured, captivated by my charm and originality.

Unfortunately before we could consummate the evening a bad case of poison sumac led to a bad rash, and two days later she was diagnosed with Lyme’s disease. She lapsed into a coma so I had to place the whole romance on hold. Unlucky for her, because for our next date I was going to show her the poisonous wasp nests my grandfather stumbled upon shortly before his untimely death.

There you have it, fellers. You may have been a schmuck at the beginning of this column, but you’re cool now. Get out there and party – Paris and Lindsay are looking for a guy just like you.

Dear Rick,I have had the unique pleasure of

knowing Jim Mackin, actually, prior to when he started The Independent Newspaper. Jim photographed my son Jon’s Bar Mitzvah in 1993 at what was once Sapore di Mare and is now Georgica!

Needless to say, we became fast friends. When the Independent was born, Jim asked me to work on a fundraiser with them during the summer of 1995 and we hosted 25 STARS, a benefit for the Make A Wish Foundation, right in the Red Horse Plaza - it was a family event and hundreds turned out to enjoy the unique festivities.

Any time, since that point that I phoned Jim and asked if they would like to sponsor

one of my events, he NEVER declined. This year I received a call from him and his incredible daughter, Jessica, requesting a meeting to see if we could partner on a BIG event for Summer 2012.

Being aware that when we began in 1995, how unsophisticated events were, 17 years later, we knew that we had the opportunity to create magic. And, so we did, this past Saturday evening when the Independent as lead media sponsor presented, “SOFO GOES SOHO.” I had no idea how invested they would become with this project. They literally pulled out all of the stops. The paper dedicated 10 weeks of advertising to the SOFO event; full page/full color ads, yes, once a week, every week, for TEN weeks. HUGE!

In addition, Jessica Mackin did not stop at that. She made sure to feature an interview with Alexandra Richards, (daughter of Keith Richards, lead guitarist from the Rolling Stones), who was the DJ

for the event, along with her boyfriend, Nick Cohen. Nope! Not finished. Kitty Merrill did a lead story the week leading up to the event, following her interview with Christie Brinkley, the event’s honoree for the evening. And . . . to top it off, the entire cover of the newspaper that day, and the lead feature was a photo of Christie and the event, itself “SOFO GOES SOHO.”

The paper also provided the great backdrop for photo ops by having a beautiful step and repeat designed and produced for the event. Each and every week, in addition to the ads, the event was featured in the “Sweet Charities” column.

Jessica made sure that this promotion, spearheaded by the paper, was seamless. Anything that they promised, they delivered 100 percent and, much more. This is truly the ideal model of what a sponsorship by a publication should reflect. Over 350 guests attended the packed event on Saturday evening and

the dance floor was jammed all night long. Andy Sabin, President of SOFO presented

Christie with her award and both he and she spoke passionately about how important it is to preserve our treasured East End environment, making certain to impress upon everyone how important it is to pass this message along to our children. A wonderful time was had by all who attended, and, I want to thank all of those who supported us, by attending, as well.

But, KUDOS to all of you at The Independent, especially Jessica Mackin who paid such attention to all details and made certain that we were in contact daily, during our planning stages.

What more can I say except that you are incredible and I cannot thank you enough for all that you did to make “SOFO GOES SOHO” the huge success that it was.

ClarificationDear Rick,

I write in response to your editorial of June 13, and many prior editorials and articles, which opine that my focus since being in office is to throw grenades at the Planning Department.

We came into office, Bill Wilkinson, Dominick Stanzione, and I in 2010 focused on three main concerns facing our Town.

The financial morass was the primary issue and we are proud to have been successful in righting that ship, properly restructuring the Finance Organization and designing and implementing protocols, procedures and reporting that frankly should have been in place long ago. Solving the town-wide management issues, however is a task that remains an ongoing focus of this Administration.

The two other major areas of concern were code enforcement and natural resources/planning. On code enforcement, we are also satisfied with the focus,

The Right Thing To DoPresident Obama’s decision to allow illegal immigrants to

remain in the United States if they meet certain criteria has proved controversial for all the wrong reasons.

Some argue it is a political stunt, and that is certainly plausible. When Obama became president he promised to tackle the immigration issue in his second year, after working to get his health plan enacted and after drafting a fix for the ailing economy. He’s finally gotten around to this thorny subject, and, yes, just in time for the election.

Putting aside politics, which granted is impossible to do in an election year, the president’s proposal is really the best possible solution to a growing problem, despite what his critics say.

First off, simply put, it’s the right thing to do. Law abiding people who grew up in this country deserve a path to citizenship. On a practical level, it makes even more sense. The truth is, ICE agents for the most part ignore immigrants until they commit a crime serious enough to cause a blip on the radar. There are millions of illegal immigrants in this country; the chore of tracking them down and deporting them would be a legal nightmare, ridiculously expensive, and as we’ve opined often in this space, we don’t think the government has the resources to get it done.

The next best thing is to provide a path to citizenship and get them

on the books. That will help alleviate the abuse of our emergency rooms and encourage more immigrants to obey motor vehicle laws.

The East End landscape has changed immeasurably over the last two decades as the flow of Latinos – some illegal but many legal – have set down roots.

These are our neighbors and our co-workers, and our children go to school together with their children. The wave of hatred that has colored the debate sullies all of us – we’re better than that.

Yes, our forefathers came here legally. We get that. But, because of Washington’s inactivity – by this administration and prior one’s – we simply didn’t enforce our own immigration laws. It is easy to say they should go back home and enter this country legally; the fact is, though, these are people, not statistics. They have lain down roots here, they have carved out a living and created homes. Many of our illegal immigrants live in fear --they are deathly afraid that if they are uncovered not only will their lives be taken away from them, but they won’t be allowed to ever come back.

They want nothing more than to see the cloud over their heads lifted so they can be productive members of society. That is the direction we need to move in – to give them that chance. President Obama’s decision may have been selfishly motivated, but it really doesn’t matter. It is the humane thing to do, and it’s better than ignoring the issue altogether.

accountability, and productivity of the efforts of all of our Code Enforcement, Animal Safety, Fire Marshall, and Building Inspectors which we brought under the umbrella of one division, Public Safety. Through the leadership of its director, Pat Gunn, those departments implemented operating systems and assigned accountabilities which have resulted in significant improvement in the productivity of those offices. We are proud of the results of that restructuring.

The third and final major issue of concern to the Wilkinson Team of 2010 was the issue of the Town’s Natural Resources and Planning Departments. Over the years of the McGintee administration, the Natural Resources Department was quietly denuded of its staff and of its assignments, to the point where our Town’s Natural Resources Department was left with three people, two of whom did not speak, and none of whom was authorized to work on natural resource applications, review a property for its features, or issue citations.

In the meantime, the personnel and responsibilities of the Natural Resources

Do you think you spend too much time on the Internet or on Facebook?

Alexandra StorchNot on the Internet but too much time in frontof the computer, writing. I’m in law school. Mycomputer has become a real part of my life.But my iPhone is another story. I spend a lot oftime on that iPhone. I’ve definitely become –“one of them.”

Brad BolesI work from my Blackberry. So I do spend a lotof time with instant messaging. I only use theInternet for googling, for searching andresearch. I have an assistant. So he takes careof all the messages from Facebook so I don’thave to see them and be distracted by them.

Sue NelsonI am on Facebook. But I really don’t spend thatmuch time on it. I just go on to see if there arepictures of my grandchildren or of my family.I’m pretty disciplined about not wasting timethere. I only have about 60 friends. I knowpeople who have 500 friends.

Rozalee FilipI spend about two hours a day online. Itdoesn’t seem like too much to me. I am onFacebook but I only go on once a month. I’mfrom the Czech Republic. So I read thenewspapers and magazines online to keep upon what’s going on back home.

Department were moved over to the Planning Department.

Not only was this move done with no public discussion and no public hearings, but it was done with no thought to the impact on the Planning Department’s ability to focus on planning for our Town and no focus on the havoc such a denuding of power caused on the personnel of the departments who continued to work in the same space.

This administration’s current proposal is simple and two pronged.

First, it is a proposal to move the three natural resources personnel back to the Natural Resources Department, leaving the balance of the personnel from the Planning Department in that department. This move is logical and gives back to Natural Resources the personnel it needs to accomplish the tasks of protecting our environment. The move also frees our Planning Department to focus on ensuring compliance with the many unaddressed recommendations of the Town’s 2005 Comprehensive Plan; working on long term infrastructure planning, business planning, strategic planning, and all the economic analysis required; and the overseeing of site plan and other planning applications.

T h e s e c o n d a s p e c t o f t h i s administration’s current proposal is born out of the desire to ensure better accountability and focus by our Town. The proposal would have the head of Environmental Protection oversee four different departments. Those departments, Natural Resource Reviews, Environmental Protection, Aquaculture, and Community Preservation and Land Management, would remain distinct departments, with their current directors remaining in place. The only change is that they will all be under the umbrella of one division, the Division of Environmental Protection.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to clarify this issue.

Falling Grades

Dear Rick,It would seem that all Americans

would want our youth to be as highly educated as possible. The U.S has fallen to “Average” in international rankings as released by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development as well as other knowledge evaluating studies; having fallen to “Average,” with typical scores of

500 on a scale of 1,000: 487 in math, 500 in reading and 502 in science.

“This is an absolute wake-up call for America,” U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan said in an interview with The Associated Press. “The results are extraordinarily challenging to us and we have to deal with the brutal truth. We have to get much more serious about investing in education,” he added.

Studies also found that in terms of political affiliation, the higher the education level, the more likely the student would be Liberal as opposed to Conservative. With education it appears comes illumination, which greatly explains why our 2010 clueless Tea Party Conservatives, having infiltrated Congress, are so intent on doubling student loans from 3.4 percent to 6.8 percent. The last thing their cause could withstand it appears, is that their adamancy be diluted by introducing intelligence.

The Buck Stops HereDear Editor,

In February 2009 President Obama’s $787 bill ion stimulus program was supposed to create five million new jobs and reduce unemployment below eight percent by the end of 2010. He missed both projections by wide margins.

Now, at the end of May 2012 , unemployment is still above eight percent and only 69,000 new jobs were created in May, the fewest in a year. When we add in people who have stopped looking for work the real unemployment rate is closer to 13 percent.

During Obama’s term the national debt has increased by $5 trillion to over $15 trillion, and is increasing. The flailing administration has created extreme uncertainty in the private sector, which has depressed manufacturing activity and inhibited hiring.

Obama’s policies and programs have had a negative impact on the work force. He has obstructed job creation by putting the Keystone pipeline project on hold. The Congressional Budget Office stated Obama’s healthcare bill will cost 850,000 jobs.

The latest reports show we could be in a stagnant economy and could possibly fall back into another recession. President Obama has been in office three and a half years, and he owns the faltering economy. As President Truman said, “the buck stops here,”

Looking Back A Few Hundred Years . . . Shots rang out in the village of East Hampton! Mulford Farm hosted the 3rd NY Regiment of 1775 last weekend showing us a snapshot of life in the 18th century. Stepping back in time, the reenactments entertained and educated with hands on activities such as open pit cooking, fife and drum music, artillery demonstrations, fire light tours, 18th century fashion shows and barn dances.

explained that the FAA doesn’t help underwrite control towers unless a facility has over 60,000 operations per year. East Hampton has an average of 30,000. However, the councilman has argued that since most of the landings and departures happen during a compressed summer season, he believes the

town should qualify for funding. He said he’s looking forward to a “fruitful” conversation with the feds about it.

Peter Wadsworth has been an airport noise abatement advocate since even before the tower project began. On site Friday, he was asked how he felt about the tower installation nearing completion. He said simply, “It’s been a long time coming.”

morning and “Taps” each evening, with special events featuring local participants designed to underscore the importance of acknowledging those who made the ultimate sacri-fice throughout the four day period.

Krudler is intimately aware of the sacrifice. A Vietnam vet, he pointed out that 10 of his buddies’ names are on the wall. “I lost all 10 on the same day, so this has significance for me,” he said.

The exhibition affords those who can’t travel to D.C. the opportunity to acknowledge and honor Vietnam vets. According to the Vietnam Vet-erans Memorial Fund website, the original Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington “stands as a symbol of America’s honor and recognition of the individuals who served and sacrificed their lives in the Vietnam War. Inscribed on the black granite panels are the names of more than 58,000 who gave their lives or re-main missing.”

The wall was the brainchild of Jan C. Scrugs, a former foot soldier who was wounded in combat in 1969. He thought those who served in Southeast Asia deserved recogni-tion. They had more often been met with derision.

“The country, deeply divided by the conflict, would not honor the service members who put their lives in the line of fire and those who died to fight the expansion of Com-munism and to protect personal freedom. Instead of the parades and speeches that veterans of earlier conflicts were greeted with when they came home, returning Vietnam veterans encountered hostility and ridicule,” the VVMF notes. Ground was broken in 1982 for the unique memorial; it was completed three years later.

Though its creation initially sparked controversy, today The Wall is recognized as an iconic presence on the National Mall.

The faux granite Dignity Memo-rial Vietnam Wall was built in 1990.

HistoryCONTINUED FROM PAGE 4.

Dignity Memorial is a network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers.

“The real purpose of our wall,” Spencer explained, “is to welcome Vietnam veterans home because they didn’t get the welcome they deserved in the sixties and seventies and the Vietnam veterans want to teach younger veterans how to wel-come home the veterans of future generations.”

With two weeks completed in the Hamptons Collegiate Baseball League, it looks a lot like last season, meaning it’s going to go down to the wire.

The North Fork Ospreys (6-4) are in a virtual tie with Center Moriches (7-4) with Shelter Island (6-4) and the Riverhead Tomcats (5-3) lurking just a game behind.

Joe Solomeno (Pace) added a run-scoring single in the same inning. The pesky Whalers loaded the bases up in the ninth inning. but John Maloney (High Point) whiffed Grant Shambley to get the save. Shambley plays for Wake Forest.

Griffin Moore, Ryan Ellis, and Bobby Gazzola each had two hits for the winners; Charlie Curl went 2-3 for Sag Harbor.

The North Fork Ospreys kept pace, edging Southampton 1-0 in a nail biter at Stony Brook/Southampton. Vaughan Hayward hurled six brilliant innings for the winners, yielding only two hits and no runs while striking out nine to earn the victory.

Shelter Island beat Westhampton Sunday 9-2. Jon Nelson (San Jose State) was packing the heavy lumber for the Bucks, crushing a pair of home runs. He finished with three hits and three ribbies.

MLB Commissioner Bud Selig is oftentimes a whipping boy for fans and talking heads who believe he is running the sport into the ground with his rigid beliefs. Critics point to the limited use of instant replay as an example. But as we make the push into late June, Selig deserves credit for an improved product this season.

MLB’s New System Spices up NY BaseballThe addition of a second wild card has already spiced up the early dog days of summer.

The new playoff system will have two wild card teams squaring off in a one-game playoff. The winners will join the three division winners in the next round.

In recent seasons we’ve seen the

Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays coast in September, with the division champi-onship and wild card locked up. Both squads realized that whoever took the division had a minimal advantage, and this gave fans little excitement during a time of year that should be filled with plenty of it.

Under the new playoff system each team in the race will do everything in their power to try to win their division to keep themselves out of the play-in game. Unlike other major sports, baseball is unique because of the pitching staff’s availability. Having to use an ace pitcher to win the wild card game would result in him being out of commission until game two or three of the divisional series. That throws a curve ball (no pun intended) into a team’s entire postseason plan.

In the NFL, winning a division can be the difference between a first round bye and/or home field advan-tage, and having to play on Wild Card weekend. In the NBA, winning the division guarantees you a top four seed, and theoretically, a weaker first round opponent. But since baseball allows the fewest number of teams in the playoffs, the talent gap between the division winners and the wild card team is often minuscule.

The NL East and AL East have po-sitioned themselves as the best two divisions in baseball. Thanks to the new playoff system, the Mets and Yankees have as much to lose or gain

as any two teams in the sport. Unlike in recent seasons, the AL

East could go down to the wire, as all five teams are strong enough to fight for a playoff spot. Looking ahead, the Yankees have a three game series against the Tampa Bay Rays from Sep-tember 14-16. With the new system in place, that series may take some eye-balls away from that Sunday’s Giants game vs. the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

If the Mets can hold on to this season of surprise, they will play a series September 28-30 against the Atlanta Braves. That three-game set could be the difference between a first or second wild card spot and going home in early October. Meantime, that Sunday the New York Jets take on the San Francisco 49ers. Maybe some fans will now have a decision to make on Sunday September 30.

Major League Baseball is still unquestionably behind the times when it comes to replay (a column for another day). But the additional wild card spot has added some ex-citement to September. And that’s what swings ratings and drives advertising dollars. If things go as hoped, NY sports fans will have some tough viewing decisions to make in September. And as a fan, that’s a great problem to have.

It seems like baseball season just started, but football is right around the corner, and drafts are already forming.

It’s important to recognize the latest trends, otherwise you’ll be caught off guard come draft time.

The most notable fantasy trend is quarterbacks are being taken sooner than ever before. Look only to the NFL for the reason why: as more and more rules are being made to protect quarterbacks, more and more passes are being thrown.

Last season Drew Brees broke the all-time mark for passing yards, and Tom Brady, Matt Stafford and Eli Rodgers weren’t far behind.

Brees presents a dilemma. On one hand, he broke the record last season. This year, though, he is haggling about his contract. Plus, his team, the Saints, will be playing without the head coach and several defensive players who were suspended in Bountygate. That may mean the team will be losing more, and when a team falls behind, quarterbacks throw more.

There are also new rules to protect receivers: last season 19 receivers topped 1000 yards, but there were only 15 running backs who topped 1000. Calvin Johnson, the league’s leading receiver with 1681 yards, had more than the top running back Maurice Jones-Drew, who tallied 1606.

That fact highlights another trend: more and more teams are employing a running-back-by-committee approach, or at least using two running backs – that means shared carries and fewer fantasy points.

It used to be the first round in most standard drafts was running back-centric. In other words, it was rare to see another position player drafted, at least until late in the round.

We’ve already seen drafts this year when only a handful of running backs went in the first round, a remarkable shift. In our most recent mock draft Arian Foster (average draft position 1), Ray Rice (3), and LeSean McCoy are the only sure thing first round picks, although Jones-Drew, Ryan Mathews, Marshawn Lynch and the rookie Trent Richardson have been getting some love.

Here’s how the quarterbacks stack up. Aaron Rodgers has been going early, sometimes with the number two pick. Cam Newton is the next to go, usually right after Rodgers. Brees is also a potential first rounder. And Stafford has been taken towards the

FANTASY SP RTSFANTASY SP RTSBy Skippy Brown

The Year Of The Quarterback?end of the first round as well in a lot of drafts. Johnson, by the way, has been consistently taken in the top 5, and at least one expert rated him the top pick overall.

What if you don’t take a quarterback early? Manning, for some reason, has been lasting into the fourth and fifth rounds, and he’s an excellent fall back candidate, especially since he is very durable and a position where injuries are frequent. Philip Rivers has thrown for 4000 yards before and is certainly capable of doing it again. Big Ben Roethlisberger has his moments. We think Tony Romo is sitting on a big season.

After that group it’s a crapshoot. Some pundits are taking a flyer on RG III, Robert Griffin, the Heisman trophy winner. Matt Ryan was awful for the first half of last season and then started heating up. By then, you were out of contention if you had

him. Ditto Josh Freeman.Want a couple sleepers? Andy

Dalton and Jake Locker both could surprise and would be late-round bargains.

We know what you’re thinking – what about Peyton Manning, who used to be the top rated quarterback in the league? Well, he’s had three neck operations in less than two years. Imagine suffering the same plight – would you be confident that you could survive a full season of having 300-pound guys charging at you? We rest our case.

to improve with fish holding

Stripers In And Out Of Baysstrong in western Shinnecock and beginning to show good signs around the inside of the inlet. The flats have been the best bet jigging bucktails. Gulp baits are doing well, too, as are the live killies.

Striped bass are at the bridge and in the inlet. Clam chumming has been producing fish on both tides. Live bait and drifted clam have seen some keeper size fish in the inlet.

Blues have been in and out of the inlet regularly. The seabass bite is good out on the local wrecks and reef but should improve quickly if the east wind ever stops.

again. Jessups, Robin’s Island and Gardiners are all producing fish up to 18 inches. The fluke are around Robin’s Island and Greenport with squid and spearing baits doing well. Some weakfish remain in the Roses Grove area failing to hi-lo drifted squid. Blues can be trolled with umbrella rigs in the rips and bass are here too. Surf/Shore Bound/Canal

The bass and blue have been biting on the local ocean beaches with tins and bucktails accounting

for most fish on lures. The clam and bunker dunkers have had their fair share as well.

The Shinnecock and Moriches Inlets have had a good striped bass bite on bucktails and rubber baits. If you’re looking for blues they’re in the inlets, too.

Trigger fish have started to make an appearance at both the canal and inlet. The Shinnecock Canal also has porgies and fluke biting. The Ponquogue Bridge is holding striped bass and fluke.

Any school child knows, or at least believes, a terrible storm or other natural phenomena that causes damage to your property, or, causes your property (your boat) to damage someone else’s (another boat), is an Act of God.

Behind this “fact” lies protection for the insurance company that may, or may not, have to pay (check the fine print and be sure of what you are paying for) for you when your boat sets down on someone else’s during a storm and sinks it. Or, does it? What are the facts?

The Four Day Nor’easterSome of you may recall the severe

nor’easter we had in the late fall of ’05. I do in particular because my son and I moor our boats in a bite of water east of Gunning Point, along with about a dozen other boaters. During that storm, two of those dozen boats broke loose from their ground tackle. One, my son’s, ended up about 300 yards to windward, way up in a marsh. The other, my neighbor’s (“Joe”), set down on my boat in the storm and sank it.

His boat ended up against my dock and sustained considerable damage, just from being banged up against the bollards. After two days of mourning, I said to myself, “Hey, it’s a boat. Call the insurance company. Work something out. Buy another boat.” And I did. The

An Act Of God – Just What Is That?insurance company was professional in every way.

My neighbor, Joe, was really and truly sorry that it had happened. He came over to the house, hat and checkbook in hand, and offered to pay for the damages. “Joe, don’t be silly. It was an Act of God. No one’s fault. For cripes’ sake, the wind blew for four days straight! Go home.” And, after many, many attempts at redressing what he felt was his fault, he went home.

What Actually Is an Act of God?An Act of God, from a layman’s

point of view, is any natural act caused without human intervention – hurricane, tornado, earthquake, lightning, etc. From a legal point of view, it is the same. However, to seek a defense as an Act of God, there is a second test. There must be no negligent behavior by, for example, the vessel owner that contributed to the accident.

There is a presumption of fault under the law, from the start, that a vessel adrift is adrift due to negligence so it is a difficult “beat to windward” to offset that presumption. If, for example, everyone in the marina doubled their lines because a heavy storm was predicted, and you didn’t, you very well may have an issue with the second test. Were you negligent in failing to act as other skippers did?

A recent case having to do with Hurricane Katrina, a vessel named the “Trust Me II” and the marina that she was moored at highlights all of these issues. First, Katrina clearly passes the Act of God test as a natural act caused without human intervention. And there was plenty of damage caused by Trust Me II as she broke from her mooring lines and ping-ponged through the marina.

And, as noted above, the presumption of fault lies with the owner of the adrift vessel, despite the massive power of Katrina, so the facts have to be compellingly on the side of the vessel owner. So, was there negligence?

The owner of Trust Me II didn’t go down to the marina herself. She did, however, ask two qualified mariners to check on her vessel and make sure that she had adequate lines. Extra lines were added and one of the mariners testified that Trust Me II was secured as well as she could be, given the circumstances.

Given the presumption of fault, the judge had to weigh that these facts – boat double checked, lines doubled, all by competent mariners – were sufficient ballast against the presumption of fault under the law.

You won’t be surprised to know that the judge, despite several

arguments by the marina owner that the vessel could have or should have taken further precautions, ruled in favor of the boat owner that the facts met the legal test of an Act of God.

But, what if the owner hadn’t asked for that extra help?

Only God knows . . .

EpilogueSeveral months later, Joe came

over, youngest daughter in tow, with a sealed greeting card, and said, “We’re not leaving unless you open the envelope.” So, I did. When I looked up, they were already walking down the path to their home. And I held a gift certificate from West Marine.
