They are purchasing dog cork dispensers for the five beaches in the village, Georgica, Main, Wiborg, Maidstone Club Beach and Two Mile Hollow. The five dispensers will be hung on a pole directly adjacent to the "pick up what your dog does" sign and clear plastic mitt dispensers already up at each of these beaches. Bathers going out on the beach with dogs next summer will be able to get either the mitt to clean up after their dogs, or, if they find that too disgusting, a cork so their dogs cannot go while out there. "We hope this works," said Trustee "Boots" Bailey, noting that, up until now, the Village has been unable to control summertime dog poop on the beaches. The cork dispensers are being purchased from the Jiffy Manufacturing Company, of Venice, CA, which sells three different models, all veterinarian approved. The top of the line model, which costs $599 each, is made of polished aluminum and is guaranteed to be tarnish free for 10 years. It has three different levers and dispenses three different sizes of corks, small, medium and large. You pull the appropriate handle and you get whichever you want. This level of opulence, the salesman from the company told the board, is what Santa Barbara and Palm Beach use. The next model down is the same thing, but made of steel and costs $499. Atlantic City and San Diego use this model. And the cheaper model, at $399, dispenses just one size cork, the medium size one, The Village opted for the least expensive model, since the community is watching its pennies these days. And they ordered 10 of them, five for the beaches and five to keep in storage in case the first five get stolen. And they have also ordered an $85 accessory, which, considering corks cost about seven cents each, has a slot where you can deposit a quarter to get the cork. According to the salesman, this is a new version of the accessory, available for the first time this year. In an earlier version, the slot took tokens. You had to go to town hall to buy the tokens, a cumbersome business indeed. They are offering those early token accessories now for just $10 each as long as they last, but East Hampton Village declined. "We expect to get the money back for the cost of the corks, the dispenser and the accessory in no time next summer," said Bailey. "There's even a setting you can make where the slot requires two quarters. We'll have to see how the economy is." The problem with dogs pooping on the beach seemed to raise its ugly head two years ago, when some of the more well heeled beachgoers, when asked by the con(continued on page 12) The Village opted for the least expensive dispenser model since it's watching it pennies these days. which the salesmen told the Village works just fine for about 90% of all dogs. Only Teacup Poodles or Great Danes have a problem with this. Fort Lauderdale uses this model. "When the day at the beach is over," the salesman told them, "the corks can easily be removed with ordinary corkscrews, which are available at all hardware stores."

Q Why Santa Fe? A: One day I just said to my wife, we're moving to Santa Fe. I saw myself wearing cowboy boots, riding a horse, and growing a pony-tail. We stayed there for four years. Q: Why the Hamptons? A: Some friends from New York called and said, "Why not try the New York area?" So, after three or four trips and seeing 80 or 90 houses, we settled in Bridgehampton. That's coming full circle because I grew up in New York. Q: Besides America, you've also lived in other parts of the world. Tell us about Vietnam, not your experience in the war, but your reaction to the surroundings. A: No matter what people say, it's gorgeous. Q: If you could live anyplace else, where would it be? A: France or Italy, places where we've also been. Q: So, can you explain your ultimate inspiration in creating a work, the season or the setting? A: If I get inspired, I'll do an image. Q: That's to the point. Is it a special kind of beauty that attracts you? A: I like beauty, sometimes in odd places like in rusted cars at a wrecking yard. Q: Contributing to your inspirations are the diverse professional experiences you have had in addition to the many places you have visited. A: Yes, I have a background in landscapes (drawn from Africa and the Southwest). Q: And you're considered one of the top automobile artists in the field. A: That, too. -- Marion Wolberg Weiss Mr. Michaels' website is: robertmichaelsphoto.com Corks (continued from page 9) This week's cover by Robert Michaels recalls the spirit of the season in a most arresting way. At first glance, the folk-art content and subtle fantasy style seem far removed from the artist's signature works, which celebrate the aesthetics of the automobile. Even so, his recurring juxtaposition of a vehicle (in this case, a tractor) with the environment is still salient and provocative. The following conversation explores Michaels' inspirations. Q: Obviously, many things inspired the cover. A: I love this particular time [the Fall] in the Hamptons. I like dramatic scenes, to see the leaves turn. I love the area generally, its country setting and sophistication. Q: Speaking of settings, environment is so important to you, both in where you have lived and in your paintings. A: Yes. My wife and I have lived in Malibu, California, where I didn't see the leaves turn stables to clean up after their dogs, announced that with all the money they and their dogs were bringing into the community, the community should be grateful for whatever it was they left behind. That comment was stated at a Village Board meeting that year and it seemed to raise the hackles of the Board. One councilman, Aaron Gretz, said there already were laws on the books that made it illegal for dogs to poop on the beach, and they should be enforced. This was promised at that meeting, but then for lack of manpower, not followed through upon. At the end of the summer when no tickets had been issued for this, Gretz went around with five clear plastic bags over the Labor Day Weekend and put about 40 pounds of dog poop (the bags were labeled with the names of the beaches) on the front steps of Village Hall. In the election last June, Gretz was not nominated for reelection. More discussion about the problem raged at a Board meeting in September. Village Trustee Barbara Borsack said the board is "this close" -- she held her index and middle finger about an inch apart -- to banning dogs on the beach altogether in the summertime. There was discussion about the dog cork dispenser, including some questions about the fact that some beachgoers might use the corks for open bottles of wine or champagne, but no decision was reached. What was decided, according to Borsack, after discussing how to give a ticket to a dog, was to have full enforcement of the existing law. It will be "zero tolerance," she told this newspaper reporter, which means that the village will have numerous ordinance enforcers out on each of the five beaches all summer looking for code breakers. Dogs are welcome on the beaches the rest of the year, of course, along with other animals, like cats, snakes, penguins and goldfish. From September 15 to May 15, there are no restrictions at all. Bring a skunk if you want to. Hopefully, there won't be a "used cork at the beach" problem at that time. � 1194515 1145971 DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 13 www.danshamptons.com Book Tour What I Learned Reading "In the Hamptons" in the Hamptons By Dan Rattiner This past May 6, the memoir I wrote called In the Hamptons: My Fifty Years With Farmers Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires and Celebrities appeared in bookstores all throughout the land, as the editors and publicists at Random House said, referring to the fact that this book would be distributed nationwide. As a major component of the effort to get copies of it sold, the editors urged me to create a campaign in the Hamptons on my own that would help that happen. I decided to read In the Hamptons in the Hamptons. I would go, every Saturday morning, all summer long, a total of 16 times between Memorial Day and Labor Day, to some particular spot where events in a chapter took place and read that chapter aloud to whoever wanted to come hear it. Inasmuch as each chapter was about a particular person, consisted of a particular incident and was always set in a particular location, this would not be hard to do. To accomplish this project, I needed to consider, last spring, a whole bunch of things. One was that I needed to investigate whether there were laws to prevent me from reading a book to a crowd in a public place. (You don't need a permit so long as the number of people gathered are fewer than 50.) Another was that I would have to put together a marketing campaign of press releases, newspaper articles, posters and radio and TV show interviews to let everybody know where I was going to be. That was easy. I have been doing promotions in the Hamptons all my working life. The third thing was that I had to look into my soul and decide if I wanted to make a fool of myself. (I did.) And so the press releases went out and the media responded. Articles appeared in The New York Times, USA Today, and even in Newsday, which in the heart of the summer excerpted an entire chapter. I was interviewed on radio and TV, both locally and nationally. The publicity I was sending out, it seemed to me, suggested that (continued on page 24) DINNER AT CITTANUOVA ON NEWTOWN LANE By Dan Rattiner Last Friday night, my wife and I had dinner at Cittanuova, the popular and sophisticated bistro restaurant on Newtown Lane in East Hampton. (Cittanuova is the Italian spelling of Newtown.) The d�cor of this place is 21st century Rome, all zappy and high style with sliding glass doors, mahogany walls, tile floor, marble bar and countryside Italian tableware. The menus are in Italian, with English subtitles for those who do not speak that language, and the dishes are clever and tasty and quite reasonably priced. When you eat here, you could be forgiven if you were to think you were on the Via Condotti in Rome. As we had a late and heavy lunch, we were not particularly hungry by 7 p.m., yet we wanted to have a salad and perhaps a half portion of an Italian dish. The choice of Cittanuova seemed inevitable, since they offer half portions of some of their dishes. An attractive maitre de greeted us as we came in the front door. On this day, it was Sarah Palin, with her big winning smile. She had her hair swept up, those wire thin rectangular high fashion glasses, a pant suit and a silver sash that read MISS ALASKA on it. We were quite surprised. "Two?" she asked. "Yes, thank you," I said. "And good luck next Tuesday." She led us past the bar, which was jammed with people watching sports on the three flat screens that are above and behind the bartender. One of the people at the bar was Popeye, the Sailor Man, with his corncob pipe, his flushed, pinched face and his protruding chin. He was talking with one of the local fishermen. Sarah brought us to a banquette at the end of the room, where you could sit side by (continued on next page) DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 14 www.danshamptons.com Cittanuova (continued from previous page) side and watch the passing scene. A waitress came by, gave us menus and asked if we'd like drinks. Chris ordered a hot tea, which came in a glass. I ordered a grenadine and club soda, which is what I drink when I am not having a real drink. The bread waiter came by with a steel weave basket filled with cut up warm pieces of Italian bread, crusty on the outside, warm and moist on the inside. There was a glass compote dish with olive oil in it. After awhile, Spiderman came over. He was a very little Spiderman, about three feet tall. He had on a mask and a red and blue Spiderman muscle suit with a black spiderweb on it. He stopped directly in front of our table and just looked up at us quizzically. "Alfie, leave them alone," a man at the next table, sitting with a lovely woman, said to Spiderman gently. He turned and went back and sat down at his seat. I ordered a vegetable soup and my wife ordered a minestrone soup. We thought both were a bit bland, so we asked for, and quickly got, some Parmesan cheese, which we sprinkled on the top. A witch, with green cheeks, a long crooked nose and a black pointed hat and cape swept by the bar and went into the ladies room. Popeye, who seemed interested, pushed back his rubber Popeye mask to the top of his head. Now his corncob pipe faced the ceiling Susan Galardi and his giant chin, which was cleft, sat on top of his head facing up, but now appeared as two enormous bull testicles. It was quite disconcerting. And I was not alone. A man at the bar next to Popeye reached up and squeezed one. We overheard snippets of conversation. Two people were talking about the Knicks game. Another was talking about the Texas Longhorns, who are playing Texas Tech on Saturday. I went back to the soup. More characters came by. One of them had wild, white hair and looked like Doc, from the movie Back to the Future. Another was Raggedy Anne, with bright red spots on her cheeks and a big flouncy dress. The waitress came with our main courses. Chris had ordered papperdella wild boar and I had ordered garganelli alla bolognese, both pasta dishes. At half order each, they were just $16. But I think the chef, proud of himself, really gave us nearly full orders. We each sampled the other's. Both were well spiced and very different one from the other. They were the work of a skilled chef. Truly full, we passed on dessert, and asked for the check, which was all of $48.88. On the way to the front door and the maitre de, I wondered if the restaurant had individual little mints in foil for departing diners to enjoy. Well, Ms. Palin had a little dish of candy corn. You don't usually see candy corn at restaurants. Maybe it's some new Italian thing. Or a Joe Sixpack thing. Going out to the street, we passed somebody coming in dressed up to look like Alec Baldwin. � It WAS Alec Baldwin. I think. 1146625 DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 15 www.danshamptons.com Excellent Examining the Latest T Uttered by Those Serving the Well to Do erm By Dan Rattiner When you go on a trip, there are certain niceties that you expect when you stay at a hotel. People will wish you a nice day. They will, at a better hotel, say I hope you enjoy your stay. Over the years, I have learned that at the very best hotels, the people might say, "Right away, sir," or even, "Very good, sir," both of which are in the very upper reaches of politeness, but are so British as to be excused. The other day, however, while on vacation, I heard something new that has begun to creep into the lexicon of the hotel help. I was in the lobby and a man came over from the bar to the front desk. He seemed to be in some minor distress. "I have to use the bathroom," he said. "Excellent," the clerk said. He almost fell over himself in giddy delight at the brilliance of this man's utterance. Then he pointed him to the location of this contrivance. Now, I have written in the past about some of the new words that have arrived into the vocabulary of upper class service establishments. For example, I wrote a few years ago about the recently arrived word "enjoy" that entered the lexicon of waiters at fine restaurants. I had no objection to "enjoy" except that I felt it was being used as a complete sentence when, obviously, it was not. "Enjoy your din(continued on page 25) WHAT'S THAT UP ON TOP OF THE FLAGPOLE? Dear Dan, For a long time now, I've been suppressing the thought that something is rotten in the Town of East Hampton. There's an effigy, held up on a post, just off the corner where Newtown Lane meets Main Street. It unsettles me every time I pass it, because it calls to mind a lynching of some kind -- but I'm assuming there's some more benign explanation. I finally asked around about it in the nearby shops this summer. I couldn't get an answer. So I decided to write to you. Do you know what it is? Thanks, Presca Abn * * * Dear Presca Abn, First of all, the reason nobody you ask in the stores knows what this is all about is because almost all the stores are now part of upscale chains and the managers of the stores don't even know if East Hampton is one word or two. But to get to your question. About 20 years ago, a store on Newtown Lane with a flagpole next to it was rented by a charming man named Morgan Rank. Rank was a former New York City advertising man who had moved out here after turning his hobby into a career. His hobby was to drive a station wagon to the Midwest -- to Ohio, West Virginia and Kentucky and find wooden folk art, scarecrows, whirligigs and the like, which people out there make in their spare time and often set up on their front lawns. He'd make friends with these people, buy their wooden sculptures, and then drive them back to East Hampton, where he'd set them up in the store and sell them to collectors. He'd sometimes find multiple pieces by one particular farmer, and he'd have a wine and cheese gallery opening in the store, with the man present, and it would be quite a little event. In any case, Rank got an idea about that flagpole next to his store. If at one time it had an American flag flying from it, there hadn't been one for as long as he knew, so it was just bare up there. Why not get a ladder and put a wooden folk art sculpture up there? He found a piece, which was a full size affair of a wooden man with moveable arms and legs, and he got it up there and fastened it. Then he arranged the man so that his head was forward and looking down with one arm gesturing to the (continued on page 20) DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 16 www.danshamptons.com What a Sight!

Galardi Just last week, the East Hampton Town Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) gave a nod to the Ross School's plan to complete construction of six professional dome-covered tennis courts and an athletic facility, despite a claim brought forth by Scott Rubenstein, a neighbor and owner of East Hampton Indoor Tennis, which could soon be in competition with the Ross facility. (In fact, Ross will take its own business from EHIT, since the school used to rent space from Rubenstein.) Rubenstein and his attorney state that the Ross facility is not your basic school gym available to the community at large. Chief Building Inspector Don Sharkey said the private school's plan to open the facility on weekends and evenings to the community is no different than what any public school does. Rubenstein insists Ross is running a forprofit business. Sharkey says it's running a semi-public facility. That show is far from over. But another showdown has come to an end, after three years of appeals, denials, law suits, code changes and NIMBYism. Happily for the hundreds if not thousands of children, adults and community members from Southampton to Montauk, the fate of the Buckskill Ice Rink is no longer on ice. On October 17, New York Sate Supreme Court Justice Arthur Pitts ordered the East Hampton Town ZBA to finally issue a certificate of occupancy (CO) to the facility. At a hearing October 28 that followed Pitt's decision, Kathryn and Doug DeGroot, the owners of Buckskill, got the green light. "[The ZBA] complied with the court order," said Ted Sklar, attorney for the DeGroots. "We got what we applied for." The Buckskill rink opened in January 2005 for two seasons before it was put on ice. From the start, the Winter Club, as it is also called, quickly became wildly popular, with offerings like adult hockey with scheduled games in the (continued on next page) 3rd Q. 2008 STATS: KEEP PRAYING By T.J. Clemente For the last few months, the housing crisis and the national sub-prime mortgage crisis were interwoven and seemed to be a twoheaded monster. However, slowly the two situations are revealing their own identities -- meaning one may have to be solved before the other. Data shows that home sales are up perhaps as much as 70% nationwide versus a year ago, perhaps due to foreclosure deals and lowered prices. This increase brings the country to the sales level of 13 months ago -- but not the Hamptons. Sales figures for the third quarter released by Town & Country Real Estate shows a detailed downward spiral for sales. For example, in Sag Harbor Village and surrounding area, (including North Haven and Noyac) last year there were 45 sales compared to this year's 20. East Hampton Village, which had 17 sales in 2007, had all of four in the same quarter of 2008. Town & Country's numbers show declines of 80% in Bridgehampton -- from 50 sales down to just 10. Shelter Island? Down 63.64%, going from 22 sales to 8. An overview of the downwardpointing percentages shows decline ranges of 80% (Bridgehampton) to 53.4% in the best performing zone: Westhampton. The overall percentage drop for all the Hamptons is 62%. Totals for the third quarter 2008 were listed at $299.8 million, compared to 2007's $926.9 million. Compared to 472 in the third quarter of last year, only 179 homes were sold in the Hamptons (which includes sales from (continued on page 26) DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 18 www.danshamptons.com Ice (continued from previous page) mornings, junior hockey and clinics to help children develop their skills, figure skating and private lessons, as well as public skating sessions, memberships and private parties. Visiting the facility for the first time two years ago took this writer back to childhood, to a public, man-made pond that was thick with skaters, and a round house where kids would throw potatoes onto the coals of a raging fire and drink tea and hot cocoa from thermoses. There were no coal-baked potatoes at Buckskill, but it felt like a throw-back. It was a decidedly un-Hampton spot, in the best sense of the phrase -- all fun and no pretense. The Buckskill club house was as close to Norman Rockwell that we can get in these parts: the smell of popcorn popping, home made soups cooking and hot chocolate brewing, mixed with that evocative scent of a wood burning fireplace. I looked forward to when our son got a bit older (than 4) and could learn to skate there. It was an exciting thought, even though, personally, I hate ice skating. I tagged along as a kid only for the baked potatoes and hot chocolate. But I loved the feeling of that place, and I loved Buckskill. I envisioned, in a year or two, a day of family fun, with my partner and son enjoying themselves on the ice, while I sat by the fire reading a newspaper and drinking coffee. But that was not to be. The story of the not-so-little ice rink that finally could started in December 2004, when the town passed a law allowing the construction of seasonal ice rinks on tennis courts. In mid-December, the DeGroots filed an application with town to convert four of their ten Hamptons Tennis Club courts into an ice rink. They got a building permit in mid-January 2005, and opened the rink January 21. Word spread quickly. There was one problem. Well, two really. First, the DeGroots didn't file for a CO right away. Second, neighbors complained noisily about, well, the noise. In August of 2005, after a successful season (perhaps too successful), the East Hampton Town board passed a new law separating rinks into two tiers: a seasonal rink that exceeded 7,200 square feet (which applied to the Buckskill rink) would require a site plan approval, not just a building permit. Why did the town change its mind? Was the public outcry of a handful of neighbors who already lived near the railroad track, an industrial park, a kid's camp and another tennis club (EHIT, mentioned above), strong enough to change the law? That question has never been sufficiently answered, but the DeGroots, with tremendous support from happy skaters, had a long fight ahead. In December 2005, after the rink had been open for one season and after the Town had made it law that rinks must include site plans, the DeGroots applied for a CO under the first law, which required only a building permit. They were refused in January 2006 by Building Inspector Sharkey. Strike one. In mid-March, they filed an appeal, which wasn't heard by the ZBA until the end of August, 2006. At that meeting, via a memo, Sharkey laid out his reason for the denial (a generator that the deGroots claim was removed before they applied for the CO, a Zamboni shed which was also removed, and an ADA ramp). In late October 2006, the ZBA denied the appeal. Strike two. The DeGroots went ahead and opened the rink again for the 06/07 season without a CO, with the agreement of the Town. But in July 2007, the town issued an injunction, shutting down future operation of the rink. In November 2007, the DeGroots moved outside East Hampton building department, and filed their first suit against the town, and Judge Pitts ruled that the hearing was defective because Sharkey was absent and the ZBA relied only on his memo. Pitts ordered the ZBA to hear the case again. In January 2008, the ZBA did rehear the case, with Sharkey in attendance. And in February 2008, his original decision was upheld -- the board denied the appeal a second time. Strike three. But the game wasn't over. In March 2008, the deGroots filed a second appeal and six months later, just last month, Judge Pitts knocked down the decision, ordering the ZBA to issue the CO, which they did last Tuesday. Score. Looking back on the chain of events, Attorney Sklar said that perhaps the bugaboo was that the DeGroots didn't request a CO prior to or immediately upon opening the facility.

Tuma was one of eight "old timer" captains who were honored last June by the Montauk Chamber of Commerce for their long service to the local fishing industry. He was also honored last year by the Montauk Boatmen and Captain's Association (MBCA) for his 60 years of service to charter fishing, and their organization. "Bob was a gentleman and a wonderful fisherman. An icon to the whole fleet," said Capt. Joe McBride, former president of the MBCA. "He was one of the most respected captains in the harbor." Several years ago, Tuma was also the first "Captain of the Year" to be honored by the East Hampton Kiwanis Club and the Montauk Lions Club, at their annual Mercury Grand Slam Fishing Tournament at Uihlein's Marina."Bob took pride in his boat and his home, and he was independent and self-sufficient in his whole way of life," said Henry Uihlein of Montauk. In his later years, Tuma sold his second "Dawn," and attempted retirement, but he soon grew bored and missed being out on the water. He took a job as a captain of another boat, also called "Dawn," and continued taking out inshore fishing charters. For the past 60 years, Tuma was a fixture at Salivar's Restaurant at the docks, where he sat every morning at 5 a.m. "My late husband, Pete and I saw him every day for the past decades, and we can't imagine not seeing him at his same stool here," said owner Tina Chimpoukchis. "We were also his neighbors and friends." Robert Charles Tuma was born on December 24, 1922, at South Side Hospital in Bayshore, to Charles and Johanna Tuma of Montauk. His father, Charlie, started the charter fishing business in Montauk during the 1930s, with his brother, Frank Tuma, Sr. During the 1950s, they started Tuma's Dock and Tackle Shop. Bob Tuma grew up in Montauk, where he attended Montauk Public School and graduated in 1940 from East Hampton High School. As a child, his family lived in Montauk's old fishing village, next door to his cousin Frank Tuma, Jr. After high school, he worked at Republic Airport in Farmingdale, assembling planes, his other love. He went in the Navy for four years during World War II, as a fighter pilot on F6F's, patrolling the ocean.When he got out of the Navy, Tuma studied civil engineering at Indiana Technical Institute in Fort Wayne, Indiana, where he earned his degree in 1949. During college, he earned extra money by becoming an Arthur Murray Dance instructor. During summers in college, he worked as a mate, along with his brother, Burt Tuma, on his father's charter boat, the first "Dawn." In the summer of 1948, he met his wife, Sibyl Frances Opdyke, at Trail's End Restaurant in Montauk, and they were married on June 24, 1949. Although Tuma was offered numerous civil engineering jobs, he turned them down and decided to take over his father's boat, which he ran ever since, purchasing his second "Dawn" during the 1970s. Robert Tuma is a retired 23year member of the Montauk Fire Department, a former member of the Montauk Lions Club, and a long-time member of the Montauk Boatmen and Captain's Association and of the Montauk Community Church. He was predeceased by his wife, Sibyl, and by his brother, Burt Tuma of Montauk. He is surJohn Keeshan vived by his two daughters, Debbie Tuma of Montauk and Wendy Tuma Barnes of Asheville, N.C., and his granddaughter, Cahleigh Rain Barnes, of San Francisco. A memorial service will be held at the Inlet Seafood Restaurant. East Lake Drive on Monday, November 10, at 2 p.m. Tuma's ashes will be interned at Fort Hill Cemetery in Montauk, with another burial at sea at a date to be announced. Memorial Donations may be made to the Montauk Fire Dept/Ambulance Squad, or East End Hospice.

Today the store is occupied by Prudential Real Estate. A lynching? An effigy to a time we would like to forget? I think not. Everything is in the eye of the beholder, as you know. You should now behold it differently. As for the future, what I think we ought to do is go up there on a ladder, and raise this man's wooden head, and then outstretch both his arms upward, in prayer, or perhaps in unbridled joy, or perhaps to assuage the rain gods so we have a good summer, or perhaps in surrender to those who are approaching him with no good purpose, or perhaps just because he wants more soup. What we should not do, I hope, is take him down, strap him to a stake and set him on fire as punishment for 20 years of illegal advertising because that damn judge really was wrong and we all know it.

"The town used that [the lack of a CO] to close us down," said Sklar. "After the rink opened there were complaints from the community. The town had approved the plan. They gave us a building permit. Then the neighbors complained and the town amended the law." If the DeGroots had the CO before the law was changed, the facility's activity would have fallen under "pre-existing uses." But according to Sklar, "They said we couldn't operate a rink under the old zoning. The town's position was: once we passed the law, all bets were off. And we then needed site plan approval." That approval is still pending, and would only apply to changes to the existing site, like the addition of basic lighting. But that was not a part of the DeGroot's most recent case. "We wanted to focus on one fight at a time," said Sklar. From a call in to the Winter Club last Friday, we learned that they hadn't converted from the tennis courts to the ice rink yet, but that they are "shooting for a mid-December" opening, maybe sooner.

Galardi, Managing Editor Tuesday, November 4. A glorious day on the East End. The morning sky was bright blue and the early temperature was almost 60 degrees. The sun is shining. The yellow-turned leaves of a cherry tree vibrate against a cobalt sky. The oranges and reds of oaks and elms shine fluorescent in the bright sun. There seems to be an unusual amount of color. It's a day of great promise and of hope, perhaps foreshadowed by The New York Times headline "The '08 Campaign: A Sea Change for Politics as We Know It." Today's historic election has brought with it an inkling of newness and a glint of optimism for a return to a more human way of life. There is a feeling today (in fact, there has been for the last few months) that harkens to another exciting time in this country. Yes. The `60s, when the promise of hope, a notion of freedom and a new direction spearheaded by fresh thinking injected every aspect of our society, culture and politics. I was 13 years old in 1969 -- easily one of the most outrageous years in modern history. In January, the Jets won the Super Bowl, Nixon was inaugurated, and the Paris Peace Talks began. In March, Vietnam experienced the heaviest bombing to date (3,000 tons), and James Earl Ray was convicted in the assassination of Martin Luther King. In July, a man walked on the moon for the first time. The moon. In August, the Manson family went on a killing spree, and that same month, by great contrast, the ultimate happening of peace, love, and great music -- Woodstock -- happened. In 1969, while I was babysitting my 5-year-old niece, I was distracted by a song that came on the radio. At 13, granted, I was easily distracted, but this song could've pulled a person out of a coma. There was a screaming, aching guitar solo that bended upward into a distorted question. The voices singing in ensemble were eerily engaging � low, hollow, unprecise. Then a solo voice. Loud. Rough. Wild. A man? Woman? Couldn't tell. The song was "Piece of my Heart." The band was Big Brother and the Holding Company. The singer was Janis Joplin. And the feeling was freedom. Last weekend the Bay Street Theatre presented Big Brother in concert featuring three of the original members and a knockout lead singer, Sophie Ramos. She didn't imitate Joplin, but had the pipes and vocal quality to pull off the songs musically and emotionally enough to "bring us back." Sam Andrew and Peter Albin moaned their whoahs and yeahs in that same spontaneous and messy way they did almost 40 years ago. The close to capacity crowd was largely a "mature" group of boomers -- hippies, intellectuals, flower children and probably more than a few pot heads from the `60s. But no one stood and danced in the aisles. There was not a hint of smoke. Not a match nor candle was waved. Everyone was fully clothed. Visually, the scene was different from a Big Brother concert of yore, but there was a vibe in the air -- something I hadn't felt in a group of people for a while. It was happiness. And on this Election Day, I also have that feeling: happiness. And out of happiness and a new found freedom, I offer a hope for a new America. I hope Barack Obama is indeed the transformational figure Colin Powell said he would be. I hope that, with his elegance, intellect and grace, this gentle man will rebuild alliances with American that were destroyed in the last eight years. I hope that he remains true to his word and removes troops from Iraq, a war that has wreaked havoc on American families as so many soldiers return physically and psychicly broken. I hope Obama carries out a new social referendum that includes giving committed gay couples the same equal rights that were finally offered to his biracial parents in 1962: to be able to marry so that they and their children have the same benefits and protections as families with biracial and/or straight parents. And I hope he can once again elevate this country so that, in the eyes of its own citizens and the citizens of the world, it's respectable and praiseworthy, rather than resented and maligned. In preparation for a school assembly on Veterans Day, our son has been singing not "Piece of My Heart" but a different tune: the c/w song "I'm Proud To Be an American." Now, at 6 p.m. on election night, I'm hoping I'll be able to share that sentiment with him. I'm beginning to think I might be able to feel that way again myself. 631 537-8800 FAX 631 537-8810 112 MAPLE LANE P.O.

The bird appeared oil covered and forlorn and environmentalists from Riverhead were called in to gently catch it in a net and take it to be cleaned up. No one knows how that bird got there. But one half hour later, the train was back on schedule. LOST A suitcase filled with a quarter million dollars in cash, mostly in $1,000 bills, was left on a seat on the Southampton to Water Mill run. Anyone finding it, please call Arlen Bangsten at Goldman Sachs in New York City. DOWN IN THE TUBE John McCain and his wife, Cindy, were in Westhampton Beach for the weekend, recovering from the stresses of the long and arduous presidential campaign. He was seen going around in loops along our entire 112-mile subway system all day last Saturday, refusing to either smile or shake hands or wave to anybody. Writers Tina Fey and E. L. Doctorow were seen laughing together about a joke on the Quogue platform on Friday. ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN MAKES DEBUT With the graffiti on some of the subway tunnel walls removed, the revolutionary new advertising campaign created for the Hampton Subway made its debut last week. The campaign consists of a series of 100 posters, mounted side by side, on the north subway tunnel wall between Southampton and Water Mill which, when riding past in a subway train at 32 miles an hour, would appear to straphangers to be a 12 second animation of a beautiful woman dressed as a hunter, firing a Remington Rifle. The Remington Corporation is our first client. And now we have a second client. It is a nonprofit organization called Save Our Environment, and they have paid to have 100 posters on the south wall exactly opposite the Remington Posters, which, when driven past, show a woman wearing jeans and a headband, holding a sign reading "NO," and leaping in front of a moose grazing on tree bark to save it by taking the Remington rifle shot in the chest. Only up three days, these advertisements have already become the talk of the subway. It has been pointed out that the advertisement works best when taking the westbound subway. Going eastbound, the two advertisements appear to show a huntress holstering her rifle after a bullet comes back into the breech, and a woman across from her leaping up with a "NO" sign and running off to reveal a moose eating tree bark. BOXING RESULTS In three exciting matches in our Hampton Bays cafeteria, three of our employees were crowned as champions in our light, middle and heavyweight boxing tournament. The tournament was arranged by the 36 summer employees who were hired as "pushers," forcefully shoving straphangers rapidly onto the subway cars to keep the trains running on time. Now laid off, they wanted to find out who was the best. We obliged them by setting up a boxing ring and several rows of folding chairs for the spectators in the cafeteria. In the lightweight category, Jody Harris knocked out Frank McCraken in the first round. The middleweight championship was won by Biff Hoosegow, who knocked out Dwayne Powder in the first round, and the heavyweight championship, which went the entire three bloody rounds, was won by Harry Bernard, who was awarded a majority decision over Beatrice Loon. The awards ceremony has been postponed until the participants get out of the hospital. COMMISSIONER ASPINALL'S MESSAGE The number of straphangers using the Hampton Subway this week is off from last week by almost 20%, a fact we attribute almost entirely to the rapid decline in the price of a barrel of oil and the corresponding increase in the use of automobiles. The public just doesn't learn. If this trend continues, and economists are suggesting that the lowered oil prices might continue for years, the Hampton Subway may be forced to consider other ways to make ends meet � one thought being to sell some of the 1.6 billion barrels of oil, which our subway tunnel to FOxwoods under construction accidentally struck under Long Island Sound four months ago. It is complicated and involves state licensing and federal approval, but it does appear that all this oil is ours to sell. It was found in international waters in Long Island Sound, by accident to be sure, gushed into our tunnels preventing the completion of our new subway spur to Foxwoods, which heretofore we have thought of as an economic disaster and it is ours to pump out � indeed we are already doing so by pumping the excess into the sea. Use the subway more. And we won't resort to selling this stuff yet. Over 10,000 Long Island Dogs safely contained. Locally serving the Hamptons since 1985. . Personal Care & Service .

Or maybe a marketing firm for a rock star with his own cultural venue. That was it. Of course, it was just me, with a little bit of secretarial help. On the other hand, it was fully mini. The rock star tour was all within about 50 miles of Dan's Papers and the entertainment was just some guy reading his book. Oh well. I am not about to tell you about each and every reading, which soon ballooned from a planned 15 to a total of 22 (plus readings in nine bookstores) before we got to October, when I finally pooped out. But I would like to tell you the highlights. My very first outdoor reading took place at Atlantic Avenue Beach in Amagansett on May 11, within sight of a spot on the beach where four Nazi saboteurs landed from an enemy submarine intent on spreading havoc at train terminals, department stores and airplane factories around the country. I arrived at the appropriate time that morning, a beautiful sunny spring day, and found about half a dozen people waiting for me at the back of the beach there. There were no bathers. It was too early for that. We'd have the beach to ourselves. From the back of my SUV I unloaded a microphone stand, a small amplifier and speaker system that ran on D batteries, a cable and microphone, a three by four foot framed blown up book cover, a folding chair, a small metal side table and two boxes of books. With the help of an assistant, I carried all this stuff up to the back of the beach and, as a rock star might set up a stage, proceeded to set up a miniature version of just that from which to read this chapter. It went off well. Eight people showed up. A few fishermen wandered by as I was holding forth and scratched their heads. And a few local residents came by to walk their dogs. I read a chapter called "The Flesh Eaters," which was an account of my being an extra in the making of a movie about a mad Nazi scientist on the beach in Montauk. I sold six books and autographed them on the spot. For the record, I paid a wholesale price of $12 and sold them for $20. Retail was $24.95 plus tax. "ATM money," I said. "Author's signature free." I did an encore at that first reading, which was an account of Merton Tyndall, president of a local bank who, when I was starting Dan's Papers 50 years ago, lent me thousands of dollars, without collateral, just on my word of honor. He did not ask me to sign anything. It was quite amazing. Among the people attending that reading was Connie Anderson, a well-known East Hampton woman who said that, back then, Tyndall had not only lent me money that way, but also Bob Gosman, for Gosman's Restaurant, Joe Hren, for the nursery in Amagansett, and also her, for Franklin Triangle, which she started up by Skimhampton Road in that town. I GAVE her a book. In the next few weeks, I read a chapter on the Plaza in downtown Montauk, at Alison's Restaurant at the Maidstone Arms, on the soccer grounds behind the Montauk Theatre and on Save $2000 Per Year on your oil bill. * Based on average usage 1200 gal @ $4.25 Your savings could be more We'll upgrade your heating system to provide virtually unlimited hot water, silent operation, quieter than a microwave and the lowest fuel bills possible.

I read the chapter "Billy Joel" to about 20 people sitting at tables under a tent between the boatyard's swimming pool and docks. You could see two of his boats. The management of the boatyard served lemonade. The event on the soccer grounds, where I read a chapter involving my encounters with shark fisherman Frank Mundus, drew one of the largest crowds. I sold about 40 books. At 11 a.m. on May 31, I read a chapter about CBS anchorman Jim Jenson and how he believed some hoax story I wrote about a sea serpent and sent out reporters and photographers by helicopter to find it. The event took place 100 yards down a dirt path on the shore of Long Pond in Bridgehampton deep in the woods north of that town, which is where I said there was such a sea serpent. Only two people showed up. They were a woman from Brazil and her daughter, who was six years old. But I set up my microphone and amplifier and speaker with the framed cover of the book standing in front of it, and I read to them the story about the sea serpent. There was one event where absolutely nobody showed up, on June 7 in East Hampton. I was quite surprised that nobody did. It was a lovely day, it was a really good chapter and the reading was scheduled for the lawn just outside the little colonial saltbox home at Mulford Farm across from Guild Hall. I waited around for 15 minutes after the scheduled start. There was a "docent" sitting on a folding char at the entrance to the historic saltbox "Home Sweet Home," reading a book. Nobody else was there. After debating whether to force this person to listen to me read I thought better of it and didn't. Then I went home. For the record, I would have read the chapter about my encounters with Robert David Lion Gardiner, the seventeenth Lord of the Manor and owner of Gardiner's Island. I read a chapter about a romance I wanted to have with a pretty girl that got thwarted by German shepherds blocking my way to meet her on the beach at midnight in front of the Andy Warhol estate. I read this actually out on the beach in front of the estate, courtesy of the current owner of that estate, who was asked on my behalf by cowboy Rusty Leaver, owner of the adjacent Deep Hollow Ranch. Leaver arranged for me and about six other people to go alongside that property and out on the beach by buckboard, driven by his grandfather-in-law Shank Dickenson with two horses at the front. Shank and the horses waited while I spoke to the "crowd" down there. And I am eternally indebted to Rusty and his wife, Diane, for their help with this wonderful morning. I read to a crowd of about 20 people in the dining room of Bobby Van's Restaurant in Bridgehampton at 11 a.m. one morning while the restaurant personnel were preparing the place for lunch. The chapter was entitled "Bobby Van," and included a story about my getting thrown out of that place. (continued on page 28) DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 25 www.danshamptons.com Streisand, Benatar, Lauper: Long Island Musicians Feted By Tiffany Razzano Not many artists openly admit to hailing from Long Island. But the truth is, a number of musicians and bands, representing every genre of music from rap to folk have spent some part of their career on the Island, from the farthest point east to as far west as Queens and Brooklyn. And it's the goal of the Long Island Music Hall of Fame, a nonprofit organization, to honor and celebrate the careers of such artists, which so far have included Billy Joel, Cyndi Lauper, Johnny Maestro, Richie Havens and Joan Jett. This time around, at its most recent induction ceremony, another red carpet affair, on Oct. 30 at the Garden City Hotel, two years after its first class of inductees were celebrated with a gala, even more well known artists were inducted: Simon & Garfunkel, Barbara Streisand, Pat Benatar, Mariah Carey, Louis Armstrong and The Ramones. The list could go on, and it does. "Not many bands say they're from Long Island," said James Faith, the group's executive vice chairman. "They say they're from New York City, not Long Island. They couldn't say that if they wanted a career. We're just tired of it." He added, "The people love it. It makes people from Long Island feel good about where they come from." "It's amazing to be recognized where you come from," said rapper LL Cool J, who grew up in St. Albans, Queens. "It's a part of my roots. When people recognize you where you come from, it's a little more truthful, a little more serious." "This is my hometown," said doo wop singer Kenny Vance, who founded Jay and the Americans. "There's nothing like being recognized in your hometown." And though some might balk at the idea of including artists from Queens and Brooklyn in Chrissy Sampson Good Rats members, inducted in Hall of Fame last month; Alec Baldwin presented award to Billy Joel in `06 the LIMHF, the group considers these artists to have made a very real contribution to the Island's musical heritage. So, for the LIMHF, it's natural to include artists from those boroughs in the mix. "People in Manhattan, they say, `Let's go out to the Island,'" said the group's new chairman, Allan Varella. "Brooklyn and Queens not that long ago were considered part of the Island." At the group's first induction ceremony, held in 2006, Billy Joel showed up and got his award from Alec Baldwin, turning the event into a media frenzy. Following the celebrity effect of Joel, when the LIMHF began planning the ceremony for the next year, it found it a daunting task to live up to that inaugural gala. So for that reason, as well as financial reasons and the availability of the second wave of artists being inducted, the LIMHF took a year off from the party-planning to refocus on its original mission -- celebrating the great and varied musical artists of the area, while educating residents, both young and old. "It's not about the parties," said Faith. When it came time to plan the second induc- tion ceremony, "We decided we wanted to focus more on the artists' families and make it more private," said Varella. "We wanted to change the essential motive of the gala. We didn't want to focus on the celebrity." Even more importantly for the LIMHF, it spent that year focusing on its educational component and programs with local schools. They offer several multimedia programs for schools and libraries, as well as educational seminars for local musicians and music scholarships for area students. Also, over the past few years, the group has amassed memorabilia from Long Island musicians, putting together a traveling educational exhibit, which could be viewed at various local schools and libraries. Now, the exhibit -- which will become a fullfledged museum -- and the LIMHF have found a permanent home in Port Jefferson, in an historic bank building in the downtown area. This building will house the museum, an extensive educational facility and an archived resource center available to the public.

Now it was just "enjoy." Something new. Soon to be placed into the dictionary when they update things there. "Excellent," however, particularly when used at a hotel, is another matter. It absolutely brings me up short when I hear it used. It is a word reserved for a whole other category than what it is being used for. When my kids were little, an "excellent" on a report card was, well, "excellent." It was better than "very good" and it was far better than "satisfactory." To be excellent was to be something that was as good as it gets. You could take great pride in having brought home a report card that said you were excellent. There was simply nowhere else to go as far as going up was concerned. I concede that under certain circumstances, the word "excellent" could be used at a hotel. For example, if I give someone a $50 tip on a $100 bill, he might smile and say "excellent." Not that I have ever done that, but if I did, well, you get the idea. To use "excellent" as a response to anything I might do or say at a hotel in the belief that a click of the heels and the word "excellent" would reconfirm that this is a five star hotel is just bizarre. "It's just one bag. I'll carry it to the room myself." "Excellent." From what I can tell, the managers of certain five star hotels now teach the staff to use this new word. I think it comes from the way staff is expected to behave toward, for example Omar Kadaffi, when he might come to the hotel. "My wives will stay in the penthouse suite." "Excellent, your highness." Kadaffi, or any other petty dictator, could conceivably have somebody shot if they said something he did not like. Indeed, whatever he might say IS excellent. Kadaffi passes wind. A click of the heels follows. "Excellent." I think that for others, and I include myself in the category of others, the truth is that we sometimes utter things that do not deserve to be called by that name. We have paid a bunch of money. And that's it. "I would like to have a room with queen beds," I might say. That is not excellent. It is nice to be treated in a polite and friendly and courteous manner. It is no help to be using this word excellent all the time because it could lead to a wild distortion of an unsuspecting guest's moral compass. Or maybe I am missing something. Perhaps what is really going on here is that the staff is trying to convey to us that they are not only a five-star hotel, but actually a six-star hotel, where the vast majority of people who come in are so important and so brilliant and so successful that, indeed, no matter what they say must be immediately agreed with, complimented and then acted upon without delay. And so it is just what they do and, well, it has spilled over into the likes of you. "I want that fellow sitting in the armchair in the lounge removed. I'd like to sit there and I would like to be alone." I'm up in the room as I write this. Frankly, I am afraid to go down. What if, by accident, I � actually say this?

The median price in all the Hamptons dropped 22% -- from $1,102,500 to $850,000 with the largest median price percentage decline in East Hampton Village and Bridgehampton -- both right around 31%. Dollar wise Bridgehampton median decline is over $1 million; East Hampton Village -- $900,000. Then there's Montauk, where the numbers were down but not dramatically. For example the median price fell in the third quarter only 8.6%, from $999K to $912.5K in `08. Although actual sales dropped to only 12 (from 35 in 2007) the prices did not fall that much. It may be noted that in the third quarter of `08, two homes traded for under $500,000 in Montauk, whereas during the same quarter in 2007 there were no sales at that price point. In a conversation with real estate veteran Joe Kazickas at his new office on 251 Pantigo Lane, he showed that the national trend is not yet the local trend -- which he called still "ugly." Kazickas, who was noted for landing the over $15 million listings and sales at a previous firm, has started up a new firm, Rosehip Partners, thus stripping away the millions of dollars of overhead other firms carry due to mergers. Kazickas does not see recovery coming as soon as post election. But he does foresee a big rental season where big money people will wait out the crisis by renting, thus preserving the lion's share of capital for owning an estate. According to Kazickas' computer, some of the sales in town were estate sales, as property was passed from one family member to another. Bottom line is that the figures of new sales were actually worse than they appeared. He stressed the plusses of owning or renting property in the Hamptons, but does not see recovery to the way things were "for years." The third quarter data, showing the huge declines, must take into account that the 2007 third quarter was also down double digits compared to 2006. So what does all this mean? On the positive side, homes selling in the Hamptons still command big prices. The median in Bridgehampton of over $3 million is an example. It's tougher to be a real estate agent these days, with the number of sales down by more than half. The large real estate companies have to rethink their business models to compete in this environment and service the buyer along with the seller on the highest level is clear. Kazickas, a noted golfer and wise long time real estate agent with a successful proven record of sales, remains optimistic long term. But for the short term, compared to the national data, he flashed his big smile, looked me in the eye and said, "It's not happening here right now. But when it does, I'll be here." Leaving his new office, I realized that a seasoned real estate veteran opening his own firm in this environment has to feel that good things will happen in the future.

What They Do. What They Say. By David Lion Rattiner Coffee, Five Hour Energy, Monster, Rock Star, the list goes on and on. Our pursuit of feeling energized all of the time so that we can be more productive seems endless. I've been an avid coffee drinker all of my life. I started drinking coffee during my freshman year in college when I read an article that it helps ward off Parkinson's disease, which my grandfather passed away from. Since then I have been fascinated with the effects of caffeine, and I've noticed that the rest of the country is, too. The rise of energy drinks is the result of my generation. Red Bull was the first, and when it came out, I was afraid to drink it. What could possibly be in it? It must be illegal. People will probably die from it, I thought. I've hesitated to try almost all energy drinks and products until this year, because, well, I've noticed that my energy has gone down tremendously, most likely from not exercising enough. I've tried nearly every energy product, even pills. Here are my results. Coffee: At this point in my life, one cup of coffee is more of a tradition then anything else. I feel no pep from coffee anymore, unless it's roasted at my house with one cup equaling four or five spoonfuls of Maxwell House. I drink coffee black now in the mornings, really just for the hell of it and because it makes me feel adult. But as an energy booster, I rate this very low. Red Bull: Pointless. It tastes like crap, is high in sugar and has lost its danger appeal since, after many trials, I've felt no real boost. I can't believe the product still sells. Sugar Free Red Bull: Equally effective as regular Red Bull, but about as tasty as licking the floor of a basketball court. Two Shots of Espresso, straight up: Effective for a boost, but I tend to collapse after an hour or two. Literally, I'll be talking to somebody and then collapse on the floor, unwakeable for three hours. B-Vitamins: Surprisingly effective, but nothing too exciting. B-12 complex in the morning, the more the better, does provide a boost. Stackers Pills: Tried these once. I was a raging lunatic. I felt no pain at the gym (I think there is aspirin in the pills on top of caffeine and B vitamins). These pills also have guaranara and ginseng. All of this in one pill does give you a lot of energy, but it is a scary, "I want to beat that guy up" amount. The weird thing about these pills is that, in general, the guys who take them want to beat people up anyway. Also, the yellow color makes me uncomfortable. 5 Hour Energy: Love it! I love it! I cannot say enough about 5 Hour Energy. It gives you a boost just like it says it does, you feel alert and awake and you don't crash. The taste is terrible, but you just have to swig it and you're all good. It's also expensive for one shot, like three bucks. But if you are not in the mood to drink coffee I recommend this with breakfast. I drink it when I have a big day planned or if I'm just in the mood to really be productive. 6 Hour Energy: I'm at a loss for words. Instead of "Eight Minute Abs" we now have "Seven Minute Abs." I won't try this stuff out of principle. Monster Energy Drink, Rock Star Energy Drink, and any other energy drink marketed to kids: Completely, utterly, stupidly useless. First of all, I feel like I'm five years old drinking this stuff because it's marketed to teenagers. I also feel like an idiot walking around with a can of it in public. Who am I? Some punk kid trying to look tough by drinking an energy drink to prove that he's radical? Grow up. This is in the league of Red Bull in terms of usefulness, but worse because of the social stigma. Drinking something like this in public says, "Yes, I have nothing better to do except to try and get buzzed off of an energy drink and I don't have a job because I'm freaking 13 years old!" Why do teenagers need energy drinks? THEY'RE TEENAGERS! HAS THE WORLD GONE BANANAS!? Big and Small Questions from Stony Brook You're all world-class soloists. Why spend your lives attached to three other guys? Maybe we could have had solo careers--who knows? But we really come alive as a group. We enjoy the camaraderie for the most part, and sometimes four heads and four hearts are better than one. Beethoven wrote exactly one violin concerto and no viola or cello concerti. We have an embarrassment of riches with his 16 string quartet masterpieces! When you come home, why not relax with your families, rather than spending hours teaching? The four of us have had amazing teachers like Mstislav Rostropovich, Oscar Shumsky, Lillian Fuchs, Robert Mann, Felix Galimir, Rafael Druian, and Nathan Milstein. Now we're determined to pass along their knowledge. Another secret? We also learn more about music through our teaching. So it's a win-win-win situation. Why do classical musicians get all dolled up to play concerts? Don't you own street clothes? I guess we feel that by our dressing formally the audience focuses on the music and not on what we're wearing. We also respect the audience enough to get dressed up. And dressing up makes it more of an event. What happens when one of you gets sick or injured? Can you just hire a sub? First of all, we never, ever, replace one of us for a performance, and pass that off as the Emerson Quartet. Only the four of us are the Emerson Quartet. In a pinch, we can add a pianist, but invariably our sick colleague will insist on playing the concert. (You'd be amazed at how very few concerts we've cancelled over the years.) If you could change one thing in the world of music, what would that be? That's easy. We'd encourage better music education in the schools. Isn't it awful that the Arts are the first courses to get killed? For young people, an understanding of classical music and the chance to play it are some of the most positive experiences they can have. That's why we are so committed to teaching and working with students at Stony Brook. The Emerson String Quartet Four world-applauded performers are happiest playing and teaching at their longtime home: Stony Brook University. Pictured, left to right are Philip Setzer, violin; David Finckel, cello; Eugene Drucker, violin; and Lawrence Dutton, viola. Stony Brook University/SUNY is an affirmative action, equal opportunity educator and employer. What are your favorite and least favorite places to play? For our 30th anniversary we played nine concerts in Carnegie Hall. That was a great experience--a real high point. Our least favorite? Any stage that isn't sold out (joke)! And we don't much care for outdoor concerts. Is one of you the designated jokester? I guess that role is passed around pretty much equally. Someone has to keep it light. We take the music and our playing seriously, but not ourselves. Too much. HAVE QUESTIONS OF YOUR OWN ABOUT BIG AND SMALL STONY BROOK? WE'LL ANSWER THEM AT WWW.STONYBROOK.EDU 1143418 DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 28 www.danshamptons.com In the Hamptons (continued frompage 24) I read a story entitled "Bill Clinton" to about 10 people in the outdoor courtyard of The Lodge Restaurant in East Hampton. Clinton called balls and strikes during the middle innings of the Artist-Writers Game one year, while I called balls and strikes at the beginning and the end. I read to about 20 people at the ArtHampton Expo in Bridgehampton. The chapter was, of course, about an artist, Bill de Kooning. I read a chapter about Jackson Pollock to about 30 people at the Pollock Krasner Art Studio and Museum up in the Springs. And I read a chapter called "Saving the Bull's Head Inn," on the front lawn of the Bull's Head Inn in Bridgehampton, to exactly three people, two of whom were the co-owners of the place. Showing up at these places with a book under my arm and a microphone, framed picture, amplifier and table in tow made me feel as if I was a cross between a nineteenth century snake oil salesman and a twentieth century gospel preacher. It really felt weird. I tried three times to read a chapter about the owner of a liquor store named Bill Scanlon at Lake Agawam Park in Southampton, but the first two Saturday mornings, it got rained out, and the last time nobody showed up, apparently anticipating it would be rained out again. I read to about 200 people who were gathered under a tent at the Night at the Montauk Lighthouse party in Montauk on August 16. And at another appearance at the Lighthouse, for the Montauk Lighthouse weekend, in September, I read to just two people because they organized a spot for me to read from on the side of a building where almost nobody ever went. The two readings that were absolutely the most amazing of all, however, were at Starbucks in Bridgehampton and at Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor. I was getting a bit knocked out by this time with all of this going on all over the place. (The book has gone into three printings, has sold briskly, got a rave review in The New York Times and in the Hamptons, and was either the best or second best selling book at every bookstore in the Hamptons all summer long.) And, honestly, I was now not doing everything quite in the proper order. I only had a verbal permission from the manager to read aloud at Starbucks. I don't think Bay Street even knew I was coming. I just plain forgot to ask them, and then all of a sudden there was the date. It was busy in the Bridgehampton Starbucks at the appointed hour. I set up to speak with a three-foot high, framed cover, microphone, stack of books. People looked at me. Was I going to make some kind of announcement? Turned out there were exactly two people who wanted to hear me. I said we ought to wait 10 minutes, perhaps more would show up. One of these two, a guy named Kevin Bodkin, of Sag Harbor, picked up my framed cover and said this: "I'll take this outside and get some more for you." He came back, slump shouldered, sad and dragging my book cover picture. He only had gotten one other person, and that was his wife, Maureen, who was in the library next door. Nope, it would just be him and his wife, and this other guy. Again, I read the chapter on Tyndall, the banker. Starbucks, today, is in the building where the Bridgehampton Bank was years ago. As a result of this, Maureen and Kevin Bodkin apparently decided to come to every reading I gave all summer after that experience. I am very grateful to them, and for all they did helping me set up and carry everything back to the car afterwards each time. They have become good friends of ours. As for Bay Street, that took place on Saturday September 13 at 11 a.m., and, as I was pretty sure I had failed to ask them for permission, I simply swooped in and, in kamikaze fashion, did the reading in the lobby courtyard there. Indeed, Bay Street that morning was setting up for a movie showing at noon, one hour after my reading, and they had folding chairs out in the courtyard all set up out there and so we just commandeered them. So a crowd of 15, as well as a group of puzzled Bay Street employees wondering who the hell we were, sat and listened while I read. So I was a featured act at Bay Street this summer. And they never knew. At Bay Street, I read a chapter about John Steinbeck and how he had been the honorary chairman of the first Sag Harbor Whalers Festival. Then, after applause, and after being hustled off by a guy pushing a popcorn popping machine, I got the hell out of there. The book In the Hamptons: Fifty Years with Farmers, Fishermen, Artists, Billionaires and Celebrities got a rave review in The New York Times and is for sale everywhere that books are sold for $24.95 plus tax. Have it gift wrapped. It makes a great present for Christmas about what this place was like � from 1958-2008. 1194523 DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 29 www.danshamptons.com GORDIN'S VIEW BARRY GORDIN Photo Page Editor: Maria Tennariello Layout Design: Joel Rodney RITA HAYWORTH GALA A virtual who's who of the Hamptons attended the Alzheimer's Association Rita Hayworth Gala, for their "Sparkling Silver Celebration" at The Waldorf=Astoria in NYC, where Lily Safra and Frank A.

And rightly so. November 11 is a day reserved for those who served in the United States military � and, in turn, served you and me. And though you and I speak endless words of praise for veterans, our praise is but pale reflection of the gratitude we feel. I got to thinking about those words � Veterans Day. Not the holiday they suggest but rather as a day in the life of a veteran, any veteran. After all, isn't that why they served? That each ordinary day, one after another, be there for us, safe for us, full of opportunity for us. Here on the North Fork there are lots of veterans fully living the days of their lives. Days so precious that attention must be paid. Come now and see how ordinary men and women, veterans all, fill their ordinary days. Gale Alexander, a U.S. Army veteran, spends his days in Southold with his wife Julie. Or at least Gale spends most of his days in Southold. Fact is, he frequently drives to the D.C. area to help care for a family member who is ill. And every so often Gale and Julie travel to a church convention. The represent First Universalist Church in Southold where their volunteer work is considerable and loving. Gale admits to spending some of his veteran days BEST BEST OF THE in the kitchen. Yes, he cooks - even preparing Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. His favorites are his casseroles. Easy to see Gale is a vet who realizes a family, as well as an army, travels on its stomach. Now here are two women veterans who do spend some time in their kitchens but their vet days are filled with all kinds of other stuff. Cutchogue's Claire Foos, for example, a WAVE during WWII, is an active member of Southold/Peconic Senior Citizens and Southold American Legion. Right now Claire is planning a Pearl Harbor program for Sunday, December 7 at the legion hall in Southold. Oh yes, Claire stresses she cleans her home on Wednesdays � sometimes. As for Orient's Ellie Faust? Listen to this. She was a WASP. Yep. A member of Women Airforce Service Pilots. These were the women trained to fly our military aircraft from factories to fields far-flung over the U.S. An absolutely vital service and Ellie did it. On November 11 this year, Ellie will talk about her experiences at a meeting of a women's group in Cutchogue. I'll add that our women vets want you to know Eleanor Roosevelt, not a North Forker but certainly a New Yorker, was instrumental in the formation of both WAVES and WASP. I live with a U.S. Army vet. You'd think, as such, my husband would make the bed and get in the kitchen like Gale and whip up a substantial meal. Not so. But, and this is a considerable but, he builds the best retaining walls in town (probably the whole North Fork) and lots of raised gardens where I can plant those tomatoes and marigolds. This vet spends his days working outside in Cutchogue, the sunniest spot in the state of New York. That last is a fact you can check out. Aquebogue's a pretty sunny spot, too. At least that's what Don Frank tells me. He should know because he's a super artist whose watercolors reflect that light and the North Fork's beauty. (Not all Don's work is North Forky. He's got a watercolor of New York City's Central Park that could entice me to move to the Big Apple.) Don's an Army vet. He landed on Iwo Jima shortly after our Marines did their job, made their sacrifice. Don spent a year on Iwo Jima but remembers especially spending that first landing night on the beach. Now Don paints just about every day. You can find his work at Old Town Art and Crafts in Cutchogue. It's pretty clear, I guess. Our North Fork vets are celebrated on November 11, of course. But all the other days of the year they work at their jobs, volunteer in their communities, paint their homes, cook up a pot of soup. Just like the rest of us who are not veterans. Though we are all Americans, gloriously free Americans.

Different wineries are telling different stories, of course. Some are talking about ripeness that was "on par with 2007" while others are just glad to have grapes at all having lost entire sections of their vineyards to maladies of one type or another. Some wineries are more open and honest than others of course. The only consistent comment coming from local vintner is that yields are down. Some wineries have lost up to and beyond 65% of their overall crop. That's significant and can obviously affect the bottom line. We can only hope that wineries don't artificially raise prices to make up the difference. Some will. Most won't. Of course, we won't get to taste many 2008 wines until the first whites and roses are released in the spring. There is one wine from the 2008 vintage that has already been released by Macari Vineyards. It's an extremely early release, which only makes sense since they calls this 100% chardonnay creation Photos by Lenn Thompson "Early Wine." In fact, just about everything about this wine is early. It was harvested on September 9, bottled October 16 and then released October 23. Just over 1,700 cases were produced. You can think of this wine as a Chardonnay Noveau, even it bears little resemblance to Beaujolais Nouveau, the ubiquitous red wine made from Gamay in the Beaujolais region of France that is sold almost as soon as it's done fermenting. That wine is marketed well -- very well -- and we'll soon see palettes of the stuff in local wine shops. Some "experts" say that it's the ideal Thankgiving wine. Don't buy into the hype. Most of them are mediocre and some are absolutely undrinkable. If Beaujolais Nouveau is insipid and boring, Macari's Early Wine is lively and unique. Helmut Gangl, an Austrian native who is one of the winery's consulting winemakers, created this wine a few years ago in the style of Jungwein (`young wine') from his homeland. The 2008 edition pours extremely pale greenish yellow in the glass -- so pale in fact that it's nearly colorless -- with a few tiny bubbles clinging to the glass. The nose is loaded with grapefruit, Granny Smith apple, lemon zest and subtle salty minerality. It's medium bodied and almost electric in its liveliness. Mouth-watering acidity tingles as it moves over your palate, bringing balance to the wine's sweetness. The flavors are straightforward, mainly citrus with a little minerality. Call it refreshing. Call it thirst quenching. Typically, I don't recommend drinking whites well chilled, but in this case, you should. As it warms, the sweetness steps forward a bit too much for my tastes. There's one more "early" to this Early Wine. Drink it early. Do not put it in your cellar for a year or two. Buy it and drink it. In past years, the wines acidity has faded by spring rendering this wine much less attractive food friendly. What are you waiting for?

By Kelly Krieger The First Ladies of Fashion By the time this issue is published, we will have a new first lady preparing to move into the White House. This year's campaign has brought a lot of attention to women's fashion. A first lady can bear a strong influence on the fashion industry by creating trends and new styles. A sense of personal style is essential and a necessary part of being first lady. First lady Jacqueline Kennedy represented style at its best. She loved her French designers and they loved to dress her. Chanel, Givenchy and Oleg Cassini were at the top of her list. Kennedy graced us with a signature look that included: pillbox hats, three quarter length sleeves (very popular this season with designers), over blouse dresses and boxy jackets. Her trendy style choices worked well and offered the world of fashion the opportunity to step out-ofthe-box of those traditional church lady suits and dresses. Kennedy's elegant style created as much attention in 1960 as it does today. Hillary Clinton always dresses smart. She had eight years of hits and misses while President Bill Clinton was in office, but she eventually developed her own sense of style. She was known for selecting bold colors and making pantsuits (Susanna Chung Forest designs all of Hillary's pantsuits) popular again. Yellow is her favorite. The one thing we can say about our current first lady, Laura Bush, is that she always looks polished. Bush loves to wear form fitted dresses and suits. This style is extremely flattering. Oscar de la Renta is one of her favorites. She never has a hair out of place and her make-up always looks impeccable. Michelle Obama has selected smart choices that are conservative yet elegant. Sheath and A-line style dresses, big beaded necklaces or pearls and wide belts have been the trend for Obama. Her personal style is casual, yet sophisticated (never too much). Remember, one of the biggest rules in fashion � less is more. Perhaps that's why Vanity Fair voted Obama as one of their best dressed for 2008? At this year's Republican National Convention, Cindy McCain wore a dress by Oscar de la Renta, 3-carat diamond earrings, a Chanel watch, a luxurious four strand pearl necklace and designer shoes (estimated cost for this ensemble $300,000.) McCain always looks perfect and definitely has the budget for those high-end fashion choices, making her personal style much more couture and less casual. Many factors go into selecting the right ensemble and when you're in the public eye, there is little room for error. Who's to say which style is better? It's all a matter of taste and opinion. Obama and McCain are as different as the parties they represent. Fashion is not unlike politics. Fashion is about change, about being bold and about making the right choice. We look forward to watching the fashion choices over the next four years. A fresh look is what we need. 9,647+ DR.

My friend Joanna came out to visit from Queens for a few days and I took her on a shopping trip! After all, this is what I do every day, so I decided, either she comes with me, or else! I didn't have to ask her twice. Let's do some shopping! Beginning Friday, November 7, Leggiadro, of Southampton, at 30 Main Street, is having a "Fall Blowout Sale." All pants are $25 � cotton, wool, cords, velvet and many other types are available. For information, call 631-283-8811.

The shop has an amazing line of beautiful baby and children's clothing designed and manufactured by Marie Chantal.

Got your holiday list ready? At Hildreth's Home Goods, Main Street, Southampton, and Montauk Highway, East Hampton, is having their "Annual Fall Clearance Sale," with up Casa Chic, Southampton ADVERTORIAL By Paula Palumbo, C.M.A. For those of you who have tried desperately to lose weight � reducing calories, exercising, trying every fad diet � and have still not been able to reduce and control your weight, please read on! Most of us know the main reasons why millions of American adults, and now children, are clinically obese � huge portion sizes of unhealthy foods and too much time in front of the TV or video games. Then there are those of us who have inherited the propensity to gain weight from our parents and keep it on, almost as a lifetime burden. Poor eating habits, lack of exercise and genes are the reasons we have so many fat cells in our body. But what is the reason we can't lose or reduce them, even if we try to eat healthy and exercise more? Toxins. That's right, toxins. The one missing link in most diet plans, and the one that matters most, is the failure of most regimens to cleanse toxins from our system while we are reducing calories and increasing activity. Why is this so important? Because toxins from the environment � pesticides in our food, chemicals in our water, polluted air in our lungs and tissues, chemicals from hair spray, makeup, and a host of other sources � get stored and trapped in the fatty tissue beneath our skin, in our liver and around our intestine and other vital organs. Fat that is smothered by toxins can't be used for energy. The only way that fat can be efficiently burned off is if it's cleansed and cleared of the pollutants that have been stored there over a lifetime of living in a country that is responsible for over 60% of the planet's pollution. Generations of people in the east have known the benefits of fasting and cleansing for centuries. Cleansing the body on a weekly or monthly basis is a key part of the yoga philosophy, and entrenched in the eastern religions of Taoism and Buddhism. What they know � which we are only starting to learn � is that the key to good health is an internal environment that's as free from external toxins as possible. Cleansing and flushing the body of impurities not only increases energy, libido, mental acuity and stamina, but frees up the body's fat for delivery as energy. The way to safe and permanent weight loss is through a regimen that includes, in addition to healthy diet and increased physical activity, a weekly or monthly cleanse and the simultaneous replenishment of essential nutrients to the body. There are many cleansing routines available. Some use herbal teas, others herbal supplements that facilitate the release of toxins. Some cleanses, like the one I use, are incorporated into a healthy living philosophy that, in addition to cleansing, encourages nutrient replacement, mental relaxation through meditation, an organic and healthy diet and exercise, which all foster a healthier lifestyle and not just a onetime diet plan. Regardless of the program you choose, remember that adding a cleanse to your regimen will make you feel more energetic and alert, and you will notice that you have shed pounds that maybe you were never able to shed before. Only now you'll know why! Paula Palumbo is a consultant for Isagenix. She is a certified medical and surgical assistant, and has worked in the health care field for over 20 years. For personal or group seminars, you can contact her at 516-659-2796 1194559 to 60% off select items. The store is filled to the rafters with fabulous home furnishings, accessories and much more. Joanna did leave with a bag filled with good buys, some of which she would not have found anywhere else. While we were out strolling Southampton, we stopped into Casa Chic, at 27 Hampton Road, for a look at the amazing new arrivals that are ideal for gifts or just for decorating your home for the holidays. Look for Casa Chic's "Annual Storewide Sale." All stock is 30% off and you can save 20% off new orders. This shop is amazing and you cannot miss it! Give a call at 631-283-8808 for information. There is also a pre-holiday, clearance tent sale on furnishings and accessories at Collette Home, next door to Schmitt's Market, at 116 North Sea Road in Southampton. You have to catch the sale at Suffolk Designer Lighting, on Montauk Highway in Southampton. When this store has a sale, it is always a good one. Get going before it ends. Country Gardens, in Bridgehampton, on Snake Hollow Road, is telling it to the birds! Put out the welcome mat and look for a huge selection of everything birds, including bird feeders, food and accessories. The sale ends on November 10, so get going and get feeding our feathered friends, Country Gear is at it again! It's having a "Moving Sale" (next door) and is cleaning house with a cool 25% off select items. Check it out! Call 631-537-1032 for information. Just in time for the upcoming holidays, Architrove, located at the Red Horse Market on Montauk Highway, East Hampton, is having a "Store-wide Sale" on mirrors, furniture, accessories, interior and exterior lighting and fireplace accessories. Open year round, closed Tuesday and Wednesday. A NEW KID IN TOWN: Fat Cat Paperie, located at 426 Main Street, in Center Moriches, is a new kid in town to shout about! Pamela Gurman, owner of Fat Cat, purchased and renovated the building, transforming the shop into a fine stationery and gift boutique. You will find a wide selection of greeting cards, boxed stationery, journals and gift items. It also specializes in custom, one-of-a-kind invitations and has an extensive collection of albums from many fine stationers. Gearing up for the holidays, the boutique is offering personalized holiday cards from fine vendors including William Arthur, Crane and Meri Meri, as well as boxed holiday cards. Don't miss this one! After a nice bright day of shopping, Joanna and I went to Bridgehampton's World Pie for the best pizza (in my opinion) in the world! Is that why it's called World Pie? Until next week, Ciao and happy early fall and holiday shopping! Having a sale, getting new inventory, or are you a new kid on the block? Comments or questions? Please e-mail me at firstname.lastname@example.com or via fax at 631-726-0189. My readers would love to know all about it. DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 35 www.danshamptons.com Health/Fitness Managing Stress During This Financial Fiasco By Maria Orlando Pietromonaco Do you look in the mirror lately and see the Bride of Frankenstein staring back at you? Do you fellas see just plain old Frankenstein? Are your eyes red, your face chalky? Are veins popping out of your neck and head? It's called stress, my freaked out friends, and right now we're all going through big doses of it. We've got headaches, bellyaches and heartaches. We can't sleep, we're eating things we swore off years ago, like Fritos and Mallomars, and we are exhausted and agitated at the same time. These are some of the surface, more subtle indicators of stress. There are some nasty, more dangerous physiological effects from stress that many of us are enduring and should be cause for concern. Cortisol is a hormone produced by the adrenal gland and is released into the body during stressful situations. Higher and more prolonged levels of cortisol in the bloodstream have been shown to have severe negative effects, such as weakened cognitive performance, suppressed thyroid function, increased blood sugar and blood pressure, decreased bone density and muscle tissue, lowered immunity and last, but not least, a good old surplus of abdominal fat. This economy is putting us through the wringer. It is not only wreaking havoc on our bank accounts, but it could be taking valuable, healthy years off our lives. We'll survive it, because we Americans are resilient and stubborn. We won't let this take us down. However, along the way we are going to have to face stress head on. Instead of trying to dodge it, which is likely impossible, we are going to have to manage it. Here are some useful tools that may ease the symptoms of stress and in some cases reduce stress substantially: - Exercise. Physical activity relieves tension, shifts our focus away from the daily grind for a short time during our day, and also releases a chemical in our body called endorphins into our bloodstream that trigger feelings of happiness. - Relaxation methods like listening to music, taking warm baths, controlling your breathing by taking deep, long breaths, and indulging in mini-meditation moments will all help to calm the nerves and release mental pressure. - Tailor your diet to aid mood and well-being. Cut down on the caffeine and the sugar. We are all guilty of craving and reaching for the wrong foods when we are stressed, which is only going to add to the lousy feeling we are already enduring. Foods rich in B vitamins, like fish and nuts, are known to decrease feelings of anxiety. Also, herbs like chamomile and peppermint can calms the nerves. - Turn off the news. Our perception of the world around us can send us into a somber downward spiral. Listening to the media tell us how awful things are, doesn't do anyone any good. For many of us, especially here in the Hamptons and New York City, things aren't that bad. We're still able to maintain the basics of living and then some. Stick to the mindless sitcoms and ridiculous reality shows for a while. Laughter is proven medicine for stress. - Get your z's. I know when you are worried about your retirement fund and whether you'll have a job on Monday, it's tough to hit the pillow with sweet dreams. But lack of rest is only going to exacerbate any mood swings you are already experiencing. A well-rested body and mind is what you are going to need to deal with the day ahead of you. - Be grateful. Gratitude is a powerful and positive emotion, and many studies have shown that gratitude for what you DO have, instead of focusing on the things you DON'T have, can be a tremendous and miraculous shift in your outlook on life. Be thankful for your healthy family, the house you still live in, whatever money is left in your portfolio and the fact that you have food and clothing for survival. Every day take a few moments � seriously � to remember all that is good in your life and for all the special people who surround you. - Roll with the punches. Instead of worrying about your circumstances, face your challenges head on. We can't always change what's happening to us and around us, but we CAN change how we react to it. Our attitude toward this economic dilemma is essential to getting through it. Be proactive and figure out how you are going to get through it. Even if you are on the brink of bankruptcy or foreclosure, you HAVE to surf the wave that's coming at you. Just remember that "this too shall pass." Sports/Outdoors Last Saturday, I led a group of Long Island trail enthusiasts on an approximately 10-mile section of the Paumanok Path, experiencing some of the most beautiful natural places in eastern Southampton. We hiked from Big Woods in North Sea to Laurel Valley in Noyac. To take this hike with a friend, park one car at the end point of the hike. Directions to the end point: From County Road 39, head east past Southampton College, bear left onto North Sea Road. Follow the sign for Route 52, Sag Harbor and North Sea. After traveling 2.4 miles bear right onto Noyac Road (Route 38). Follow Noyac Road east four miles, then turn right into the Northside Hills Community onto English Garden Lane. Immediately turn left onto North Side Drive, and then, after .7 miles, turn left onto Deerwood Path. Deerwood Path leads out of Northside Hills, across Deerfield Road to the Laurel Valley trailhead on Deerfield Road. There is parking on the shoulders of Deerfield and Deerwood. It's necessary to shuttle the cars, since this hike starts in one place and ends somewhere else. The way this is normally done is by having two or more people drive to the end point of the hike, and then fill a small number of cars to bring the group to the starting point of the hike. At the end of the walk, a hiker drives the shuttlers back to their cars parked at the starting point. To get to the starting point of this hike (from the end point), enter the Northside Hills Community by cutting across Deerfield Road, onto Deerwood Path. Follow Deerwood Path to the end. Turn right onto North Side Drive, follow it for .7 miles. Turn right onto a very short road called English Garden Lane, then turn left onto Noyac Road. Travel 4 miles to a "T" intersection, and turn left onto North Sea Road. After traveling a short distance on North Sea Road, look for the Elliston Park sign; turn right onto Millstone Brook Road. Travel 0.8 miles on Millstone Road; pass Elliston Park on the left, then a little further down the road look for a small parking area large enough to accommodate 4 cars, notched on the right, opposite the opening of Big Fresh Pond Road. At the entrance, there is a sign for The Nature Conservancy (TNC) Marguerite Crabbe Greiff Wildlife Sanctuary. If the Nature Conservancy lot is filled, there's additional parking on a triangle of grass at the junction of Scott Road and Millstone Road. You will pass by the larger parking area, a short distance east of TNC parking lot. In anticipation of this hike, the Southampton Trails Preservation Society created a reroute and built a bridge over a brook. Ideally, hikers should be able to follow the Paumanok Path's white, rectangular blazes the entire 10 miles. As soon as some volunteers are found to assist in blazing the gaps and re-routes, and a map of the trail is printed, this will be a reality. If you can't wait for that, a more recent version of the trail description than what is on the litlc.org, with corrections and a map, will be e-mailed to all new LITLC members: Go to the above web site and click on "Join Us." The new version provides more detailed information. This hike was part of three Paumanok Path participation events, "Green Cooperative Volunteer Day and TAKE A HIKE By Ken Kindler Two Beautiful Hikes." It was great that several people from the Long Island chapter of the Adirondack Mountain Club participated in the Nov. 1 hike and volunteered to join in the November 22 "Green Cooperative Volunteer Day." This hike was so lovely due in large part to the hard work of the Southampton Trails Preservation Society trail crew and Laura Smith, principal environmental analyst with the Town of the Southampton Community Preservation Division. They worked together to route this portion of the Paumanok Path off the road and into the woods in eastern Southampton. E-mail email@example.com to volunteer for trail work on Nov. 22 on the David A. Sarnoff Preserve section of the Paumanok Path located between Hampton Hills and Hubbard's Creek. Long Island trails groups will join in celebration of the great advances made on the Southampton portion of this regional trails initiative. These coalition events take us along 20+ miles of contiguous trail on two exhilaratingly beautiful hikes. The first hike was on Nov. 1. The next one is December 6. "Green Cooperative Volunteer Day" is Nov. 22. The hiking community and the land managers are working to make this 125-mile trail truly sustainable. Please help!

DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 36 www.danshamptons.com House/ home Design & D�cor Earthly Delights By April Gonzales Taking Down the Garden. You Know It's Time. We've started to take down gardens and organize space for storing pots for the winter. It has been very warm and frost has only hit a few spots. If you're protected, the impatiens could last a few weeks into November. But low lying areas have already been hit and so the annual ritual of closing up the gardens has begun. I love the clean look of the gardens once all the flowers and the foliage have been removed. The underlying structure made by the bed lines and boxwood, evergreens and trees is very appealing after the busy, brilliant colorful growing season. There is less to distract the eye from the brilliant fall foliage which will follow the flowers onto the compost heap soon enough. But it all takes a lot of work. We begin by pulling the annuals out of all the beds and planters. If the impatiens have been hit by a hard frost they will be slimy and difficult to clean up. In general, we knock as much soil off of the roots as possible to lighten the load, but wheel barrow full after wheel barrow full makes its way out to the compost pile. Annuals, herbs and vegetables break down easily over the course of the winter, so these are the first to be thrown on the pile. Infusions of herbs that are specially prepared are used to innoculate compost in the biodynamic method and these can be purchased if you would like to try this with your own pile. I can't help but think that throwing the entire herb garden into the mix will make the compost somehow richer even if I'm taking the lazy way out and not layering with manure, making any special compost starters or innoculants � or even turning it from time to time. Somehow nature does the work for me with very little effort on my part. By spring, weather and rot will have done quite a bit of work. There may be a few wispy stalks left of the slightly woody branches of rosemary and lavender, or tomato and pepper stems, but these are easily sifted out. It's difficult sometimes to throw a beautiful hibiscus on the top of the heap, particularly after caring for it all season. But if you decide to bring it in and save it for next year, remember two things. The house has to stay warm enough for the plant to survive and someone has to water it twice a week. It may also get infested with aphids which will mean treating it so that it does not become infested inside. Hibiscus are notorious for this. And all this care S. Galardi means cost so balance that against simply buying a new one next year and you may be more willing to chuck it in the compost with the other annuals so that the woody stem will be all that remains next spring. What is important to consider is that the ritual winter "death" of the garden this year can be what gives life to it next spring. All the leaves, flowers and herbs that break down on the compost pile, become rich worm castings that can be used every time that you plant something new, to top dress the veggie bed or mixed in with potting soil in your planters. This cuts out the need for fertilizers in some cases and cuts down on the expense of buying bagged composts. Plus you are recycling in the grand old fashion, the way nature has been doing for millennia. What to do now: Bring in all the tropicals, palms, jasmine, agapanthus or any other plants that are tender. By next week there may be a killing frost that will turn their leaves black and leaving you wishing that you had remembered to make room for them a little earlier.

T �t�x�� already sedated in the hospital, we requested that they do it then and there. They asked if we wanted to pick up the body for burial at a pet cemetery. We opted instead to have them dispose of the remains. Painful stuff. And more painful to explain to a child. Because of the circumstances, we told our son that Ruby died from the sickness (which, ultimately she soon would have) rather than telling him that the vet expedited the matter. But in many cases, the kids are at the vet with the pet when the decision has to be made, and the parents must decide if the child should witness the event. Most vets won't allow a child under five to be in the room when the pet is put down. And many vets, and shrinks, feel that it is inappropriate for children up to 13 or so. Witnessing the event of euthanasia is rarely constructive or helpful for children. Children under five have a hard time understanding the finality of death as it is, and may be completely freaked out by the use of the phrase "put to sleep" as a metaphor for death. When euthanasia is By Susan Galardi Helping Children with a Loss: How and What to Tell Last week's column on the death of a family pet touched on the subject of how and what to tell a child. In the delicate process of helping children deal with loss and grief, the circumstances of the death play a big role. Was it an "old-age" related or sudden death? Did the family have to make the decision to put the animal down? How a pet dies is an important piece of the story. Some pets grow old and infirm, becoming less and less a part of the family activities. In this case, a child experiences a slow, natural loss of an erstwhile constant companion. In other cases, the loss may be sudden due to an accident or a terminal illness that requires a difficult decision. Our situation was the latter. Ruby, our Golden, had been quite healthy � the cancer she suffered from had a quick onset and was very aggressive. It wasn't a slow deterioration, which is sometimes easier to deal with. In her case, it was quite sudden. One day she was swimming with us in the pool. The next day, we were at the animal hospital, and a few hours later, she was gone. Like many families, we were put in the position to choose. In our case, it was a clear answer. The vet called from the operating room to tell us the extent of the illness. He said he could do an operation and "recover" her; but that another organ would fail � in a month, a week, even a few days. Faced with the decision of bringing home a very sick dog that would be in pain and debilitated from an operation, and keep her in the house on a death watch with a five year old boy, we chose euthanasia. Because she was the decision, child psychiatrists recommend honesty: Young children should be told that the pet will not "wake up"; older children need to know exactly why that decision was made. Experts also recommend trying to reassure child with the concept that, although deciding to put the animal down is difficult, it means that the pet is no longer in pain. Then, depending on your spiritual leanings, you can talk about the pet being happy in "dog heaven" or some other version of the spirit world. As I mentioned last week, it helped our son when we mentioned that, when he grew up, maybe he could help find a cure for the illness that took his companion. We also told him that even though Ruby was gone, no one could ever take away the wonderful happy memories he had. But, it was our experience that the "memories" concept went only so far. When he cried, "I don't want to remember her, I want to hug her," we were at a loss for any more words. The only thing to do at that moment was to hug him.

DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 38 www.danshamptons.com Arts & Entertainment Actress Patricia Neal at Bay Street By Debbie Tuma She has starred in numerous plays and movies with such handsome leading men as Paul Newman, Ronald Reagan, and Gary Cooper. She won a Tony Award for the play Another Part of the Forest, and also an Oscar Award for the movie Hud. And after more than half a century as a leading actress on screen and stage, the legendary Patricia Neal is now coming to the stage of Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor on November 8. Neal, who rose to fame in 1947, will take the stage to talk about her life and films, following the screening of A Face in the Crowd, one of her black and white movies, from 1957. Written by Budd Schulberg, of Westhampton, this film also starred Andy Griffith and was directed by Elia Kazan. "It's a really good movie, made long ago," said Neal. "It's about a Southern girl and boy, and he's in jail, and I get him out by telling him a story. He becomes famous, but in the end, he becomes a horror. I play the Southern girl, who is a newspaper reporter." Following the screening of this old film, Neal will talk about this movie and her career. This film will be shown as part of the ever-popular "Picture Show at Bay Street," presented by BookHampton. By 1949, Neal was seen in major motion pictures, including The Fountainhead, The Day the Earth Stood Still, and Hud, which garnered her numerous awards in 1963, from the coveted Oscar to the NY Film Critics Circle Award, the National Board of Review, the Golden Laurel and a Golden Globe nomination. That same year, she also won the BAFTA Award for Best Foreign Actress in a Leading Role for The Subject Was Roses. Neal was also recognized for her Emmy-Award-winning roles in such television programs as "The Home Coming: A Christmas Story," "Tail Gunner Joe" and "All Quiet on the Western Front." Playing a Southern girl in the upcoming movie at Bay Street is not a far stretch for Neal, who was born in a small mining town in Kentucky, near the Tennessee border. She grew up in Knoxville, and her father grew up on a tobacco farm. As a young girl, she saw a woman reading monologues at her church, and she decided she wanted to do that for a living. "I saw her reading monologues and my heart pounded," said Neal. "I guess I always wanted to be an actress, ever since I saw a play in Knoxville, TN, and knew this is what I wanted to do when I grew up." She studied drama lessons from her father's boss's daughter, who taught acting, and later she studied with the Tennessee Valley Players, followed by the Barter Theater in Virginia. She also studied acting at Northwestern University for two years, before going to the Alvin Krausse Summer Theatre, and on to the big lights of New York City. Here she roomed with her friend and fellow actress Helen Horton, who is now deceased. When asked what some of her favorite movie roles were, she listed John Loves Mary, one of two films she starred in with Ronald Reagan. "He was going through a divorce then, from his first wife, actress Jane Wyman, and he was heart-broken," said Neal, who also went to England with Reagan to play in the film, Hasty Heart. Neal said she loved acting opposite Reagan. "He was a very talented actor, and we got on very well. He was handsome and easy going," she said. "My first love was Gary Cooper, who I played opposite in The Fountainhead. And when I first saw Paul Newman at the Actor's Studio, I couldn't take my eyes off him. He was so devastatingly handsome. All I did was stare at him. He was a honey. I also knew his wife, Joanne, and I felt so badly when he recently died. I sent my sympathies and got a note back from his wife." Neal also acted on stage in The Children's Hour, a play by Lillian Hellman. After her relationship with the much older Cooper ended, she married well-known Norwegian writer Roald Dahl, and they had five children. Their oldest child, sadly, died of measles at age seven. Dahl wrote numerous short stories and children's books, including Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and James and the Giant Peach. Their marriage lasted 30 years. Throughout her 82 years, Neal has had to overcome several obstacles, from the early death of her oldest child, to strokes she suffered, which left her in a coma for 21 days, in 1965, when she was also pregnant. Somehow, she managed to survive, and gave birth to her second daughter. Her struggle to come back from her debilitating stroke was chronicled in the film, The Patricia Neal Story, starring Glenda Jackson. She was offered the role of Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate, in 1967, but she was nervous about taking on such a demanding role after her stroke. Her husband was credited with helping her rehabilitate after her strokes by designing her recovery routines. She has become a champion in the rehabilitation field, with her work at the Fort Sanders Regional Medical Center in Knoxville. Her career continued to thrive, and she was nominated for Best Actress in a Leading Role in 1968 for The Subject Was Roses. "I starred in this movie with Jack Albertson, who played my husband, and won Best Supporting Actor, and Martin Sheen, who played my son, and it was one of his first roles on his way to becoming a famous actor," said Neal, who lives in New York City. In her spare time, Neal loves to go on cruises with the Theatre Guild, where she's a member. "I love the sea, and being on the water," she explained. "That is why I have a home on Martha's Vineyard, where I go in the summer." She has visited the Hamptons, and looks forward to returning to Sag Harbor, another great seaport community, for her movie screening on November 8, at 8 p.m., at Bay Street Theatre. Tickets are $25, and can be purchased in advance at the box office, by calling 631-725-9500 or at baystreet.org. Art Commentary There's something so familiar and comforting about "East End Collections" at Guild Hall that we feel immediately "at home" -- at least at home with our favorite grandmother. This critic would swear that the amber glass with a daisy pattern sat in her grandmother's kitchen some 50 years ago. Likewise, one quilt with a patchwork grid lay on her grandmother's bed where she slept without a care in the world. The world is different now, of course, full of unpredictabilities, instabilities and an unknowable future. That world is represented by artist Rima Mardoyan, winner of Guild Hall's 67th Members Exhibition in 2005. Her earliest paintings mirror our current situation in an intense way with reactions to by Marion Wolberg Weiss Two Worlds: Mardoyan, East End Collections at Guild September 11. Their material substance, texture and color remind us of the poignant pain felt after the Twin Towers disaster; the swirling movement (sometimes downward, sometimes circular) remains a reminder of transition where stability is still not certain. Thus, Mardoyan's 2001 series, "Turbulence," thrusts us into another world that is directly opposite to the one created by the "East End Collections," where boundaries produced by the grid-like quilt patterns give us a sense of safety. Conversely, "Turbulence," provides no such spatial limitations. Instead, we feel we are falling into a never-ending hole when we look at Mardoyan's images. Moreover, her masterful use of red connotes the fire of hell. The artist's lack of boundaries also shows up in varied environments. For example, paintings like "Turbulence in Blue" somehow connote an underwater locale while other works suggest a setting from the Ice Age. Another image looks like a view from the sky. Mardoyan's vision extends to all corners of the cosmos. What's particularly arresting about Mardoyan's work is not only her themes, however. It's her use of the senses, from literal sight and texture to figurative sound, taste and smell. We are directly experiencing what she's imagining -- with no boundaries in sight. Rima Mardoyan's show will be on view at Guild Hall until Nov. 23. "East End Collections" will be on view until Jan. 18. DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 39 www.danshamptons.com Performing Arts eat t vv ack By Tiffany Razzano Judy Collins, Iconic Singer/Songwriter, at WHBPAC Fifty years after she began her musical career as a seminal player in the 1960s Greenwich Village folk movement, first singing traditional folk songs and songs by her contemporaries, then later her own, Judy Collins is still going strong and remains highly relevant in today's world of music. Now, on the heels of a tribute album, Born to Breed � A Tribute to Judy Collins � Vol. 1, which was released in Oct. on her label Wildflower Records, and with a backlog of classic songs and covers as well as the new material she is constantly writing, Collins will head back to the Westhampton Beach Performing Arts Center on Nov. 15, having performed a benefit concert for the small, non-profit theatre in 1997, prior to its renovation. Interestingly enough, the idea for a tribute album came about because of Chrissie Hynde, lead singer of The Pretenders, who told Collins that one of her top 10 favorite songs of all time was the song "My Father." And Hynde isn't the only big name on board. The album features Collins' covers by iconic performers such as Dolly Parton, Leonard Cohen (a long time friend of Collins) and Joan Baez, as well as the new generation of singer-songwriters who are on their way to becoming classics in their own right, such as Rufus Wainwright, Dar Williams and Shawn Colvin. A portion of proceeds from the album will benefit the Jazz Foundation of America. Collins became interested in music at an early age, her father was a radio DJ, and she studied classical of other books, including another memoir, a book about songwriting and one on suicide, which touches upon the suicide of her son as well as her own attempt as a teenager. Collins, who is constantly working on new material � which she refers to as "the plight and the pleasure" of being a creative person, is working on a record she's tentatively calling Paradise. It'll be released on her label, Wildflower, which she founded in 1999 "out of desperation," based on her dealings with major labels. But Wildflower has taken on an important role in today's music industry, discovering up-and-coming artists and nurturing their growth as musicians, as major labels focus solely on artists that can make them a quick buck. "It may not be much, but it's all I have," she said of her label, adding, "I'm always interested in and looking for new artists. I'm always looking for talented people." She also says that having her own label is "not a big jump" for her, since early in her career she was given a fair amount of autonomy by other labels, co-producing many of her albums. "It was never a matter of others telling me what to do with my life," she said. "[Wildflower] was a natural step. It just gave me more control." Collins will be at the WHBPAC on Nov. 15 at 8 p.m. Tickets are $80/$65/$50. For more information, or to purchase tickets, go to whbpac.org or call 631-2881500. For more information on Collins, go to wildflowerrecords.com. piano. She eventually picked up a guitar, though, and was moved by the music of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger. She also performed the songs of her contemporaries, which boasted musicians such as Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Tom Paxton and Phil Ochs. Famously, however, she was a huge influence on the musical career of Cohen, a poet. "He would come to me and ask me whether or not he was writing songs," she said. "In 1966, I also pushed him on stage for the first time." She's also working on a book, Suite Judy Blue Eyes (yes, she was the inspiration for the Crosby, Stills & Nash song) about 50 years of sex, drugs and rock and roll. But this isn't her first time trying her hand at writing, having written a novel in 1995 and a number Review: Equus Daniel Radcliffe, the star of the five Harry Potter films, acquits himself admirably with a confident Broadway debut as the disturbed adolescent Alan Strang at the core of Peter Shaffer's 1973 psychodrama Equus. The revival, directed by Thea Sharrock, debuted at London's National Theatre earlier this year with the same theatrically impressive design team. John Napier, set and costume designer, merely takes a fresh look as his original 1970s sketches, but the staging is nonetheless dazzling, with effectively haunting lighting and sound by David Hersey and Gregory Clarke, respectively. Martin Dysart, the psychiatrist assigned to unravel the reason for Alan's shocking crime, is played by Richard Griffiths, Harry Potter's uncle, Vernon Dursley, in the Potter film franchise. He is reprising his role from the London production, and although he was simply marvelous, winning a Tony Award in 2006 as the professor in The History Boys, his approach here is a decidedly restrained, naturalistic style with an internal focus. The result is a shut down Dysart trapped in his head, and the slant robs the character of his fury and menace. A more stylized approach that taps into Dysart's explosively tormenting conflict would give Radcliffe more to play off and go a long way to making the evening more combustible and exciting. As it turns out, Radcliffe's compelling Alan comes off intense, but rather one dimensional and lacking depth. His eyes shorn of his Harry Potter glasses are illuminatingly blue, but they ultimately reveal a relatively innocent soul. The lurid drama is being revived for the first time since winning the 1975 Tony Award for best play and theater review/gordin & christiano a vehicle for two star performers, as the underlying characters are underdeveloped and used only as devices to shed light on the central characters or to move the conflict between them along. Today, Shaffer's fictionalized tale based on a true story about a stable boy who blinded five horses with a metal spike feels decidedly dated. The play, with imposed psychobabble about sexual transference and religious mysteries, makes references to Jung and Freud without ever mentioning them. The examination of the conflict between personal values and the need to satisfy our desires unfolds like a detective story, with Dysart wrestling with his own sense of purpose while attempting to get Alan to reveal the unpleasant truth. The material remains disturbing, without the weight of the playwright's 1981 Tony award winning play Amadeus, which copped him an Oscar for best screenplay as well. But oh those horses! They are the real stars of the evening, provocative and sensual, clad in skintight jodhpurs and elaborate metal heads with glowing eyes.

DAN'S PAPERS, November 7, 2008 Page 41 www.danshamptons.com Dining and Nightlife Simple Art of Cooking Silvia Lehrer In the Fall, Squash Gets Serious Winter squash, as opposed to summer squash, are the large, mature, hard shell squashes that have taken over the shelves of our farm stands, vegetable markets and supermarkets in a blaze of color. Arrange a variety of winter squash on your dining table or sideboard, such as the wide-ribbed acorn, the turban-like cap of the buttercup, the bulbous-based butternut and the globular Hubbard, and you have an exquisite still life of amusing shapes and diverse colors. One of the most popular varieties, the small acorn squash, is often used as a side dish. Just halve, seed and bake with a bit of butter, allspice and a drizzle of maple syrup in each cavity until oven tender. Cooked butternut squash, pur�ed with apples, ginger and stock makes a creamy and tasty soup. When the squash is steamed until tender then mashed with butter, maple syrup and ginger, it becomes a luscious puree. When choosing winter squash, select sturdy heavy squash with fairly glossy skin and avoid water spots, which indicate decay. While some varieties of winter squash are available all year round, fall and winter is the peak season and the best time to enjoy these varieties. HERBED SQUASH BISQUE The flavors of most soups benefit from a few hours to an overnight stay in the refrigerator. Serves 8-10 3 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 large butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1inch pieces 2 tart green apples, peeled, cored & cut into 1-inch pieces 1 large onion, peeled and thinly sliced 1 1/2-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and finely chopped 3/4 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves 3/4 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves 5 - 6 cups chicken stock 3/4 teaspoon coarse (kosher) salt and freshly ground pepper 1/2 cup heavy cream 2-3 tablespoons dry sherry or drizzle of pumpkin oil (optional) Fresh crouton garnish* 1. Melt butter in a large saucepan. Put in squash, apple, onion and ginger and season with herbs. Cover with a square of wax paper and cook slowly over low heat stirring occasionally, 6-8 minutes to sweat the vegetables. Pour on the stock; season with salt and pepper and simmer over medium heat about 25 minutes. 2. Pur�e soup directly in the saucepan with an immersion blender or ladle soup and vegetables in batches into the work bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel knife or into a blender, and pur�e until smooth. Transfer to a clean bowl as you process each batch. Return to a rinsed saucepan and bring the pur�e to the edge of a boil. Add the heavy cream and stir to mix. Taste to adjust seasoning if necessary. Can be made ahead to this point. 3. Just before serving. Bring to a simmer, add sherry and stir to mix. Ladle into warm soup bowls. Garnish with fresh croutons if desired and serve hot. Freeze any unused portion. Reprinted from Silvia Lehrer's Cooking at Cooktique, Doubleday *Crouton garnish: Place about 4 cups cubed one or two-day-old crusty bread in a mixing bowl. Toss with 4 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil to coat the cubes and transfer to a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated 375-degree oven about 3 minutes, turning once. Let cool and store in a waxed paper line tin. I keep cookie tins of various sizes to store croutons and pita toasts. They come in handy for soups and appetizers. S. Galardi MAPLE BUTTERNUT SQUASH PUREE The dense flesh of butternut squash lends itself to the technique of steaming with custard smooth results. 3-4 cups pur�e 2 1/2 - 3 pounds butternut squash 1/4 cup butter, at room temperature 2/3 cup pure maple syrup Coarse (kosher) salt and freshly ground pepper to taste 1 teaspoon freshly grated ginger 1/3 cup chopped toasted walnuts or pecans, optional 1. Wipe squash clean. With a sharp chef's knife, halve lengthwise and scoop out seeds. Place halves in a steamer rack, flesh side down, over briskly simmering water. Cover tightly and steam for about 15-18 minutes or until very tender. 2. Remove from heat. When cool enough to handle scoop flesh into a sieve over a bowl and drain. With a rubber spatula, transfer flesh to a saucepan and mash with a potato masher to a pur�e. With a sturdy wooden spoon whip in the butter, maple syrup, salt, pepper and ginger and stir to mix. Spoon into a warm serving dish, sprinkle with chopped nuts, if using, and serve hot. 3 Course Prix Fixe OPEN 7 DAYS OPEN THANKSGIVING DAY-NOVEMBER 27 N G R TH Sun - Thurs - All Night $2500 Steak and Fries $1900 Sun - Thurs - All Night PRIX FIXE $28 $25 SUNDAY TO THURSDAY ALL NIGHT FRIDAY - SATURDAY 5 TO 6:30PM BREAKFAST BRUNCH � LUNCH � DINNER PATISSERIE � BAR HOME MADE ICE CREAM Lobster Night $2100 Tuesday Only All Night 1194475 Specials not available Holiday Weekends RESERVATIONS: 631.537.5110 2468 MAIN STREET .

You talked about the `Woodshed' turning into `The Grotto of the Purple Grape.' When I was 18 years old, the very first place I played (scared to death) as a singer and guitarist was `The Grotto.' Later, I moved on to bigger and better venues such as `The Hanson House' in Southampton, and `The Driver's Seat' on Job's lane, or the `Salty Dog' in Sag Harbor. I keep telling people that the Hamptons was painfully beautiful, just potato fields and a few cool stores back in the `70s, but no one believes me. Sigh. Thanks for the trip down memory lane. Now I'll go play some Joni Mitchell and skinny-dip in my bathtub. Gratefully, Mary Ellen Gherardi Coppell, Texas Via e-mail Remember the Hampton Drive-in next door? � DR AGRICULTURAL RESERVE QUESTIONS Dear Dan: I've written a few letters to The Southampton Press and The Independent concerning agricultural reserve easements. At the risk of repeating myself, I'd like to discuss this issue within the context of the October 17 article entitled "Should Deep Hollow Ranch Be Saved." A while ago, a standard subdivision plan to build 12 houses on 2 l/2-acre lots in East Quogue was rejected by Southampton's Planning Board allegedly because it didn't contain enough open space, even though the minimum lot size for that parcel was actually two acres. After revisions, the final plan approved by the Board allowed the developer to build 13 houses on 1acre lots (off a l.6-acre cul-de-sac) and to create a 14.75-acre agricultural reserve easement, which the developer could sell. The Planning Board called this subdivision a Planned Residential Development or PRD. Not only did Southampton allow the maximum e-mail Dan at email@example.com therefore very profitable vehicle for developers. No reason exists to allow any developer to sell the open space as a separate business. Conversely, agricultural reserve easements are intended to restrict development. However, in Southampton they have become vehicles for increasing development when made part of a PRD. In my opinion, Southampton's failure to use PRDs and easements in the manner in which they were intended by law and by Code may be a "crime" of greater magnitude than East Hampton's misuse of CPF funds. Perhaps someone at the next highest level of government (County or State?) should investigate Southampton's questionable use of easements since, in East Hampton, a rancher who appears to have obeyed statutes governing easements now appears to be at a disadvantage. Respectfully, Susan Cerwinski East Quogue, NY, Via e-mail When farms are saved, the farmer on it can still run a farming business � but ANY business? I will look into this. � DR HANG UP Dear Dan, My name is Whitney and I am a resident of Sag Harbor. This photo was taken today 10/31/08 around 3 p.m. Law or no law, I am concerned because this is the second time I have seen this woman on [what appears to be?] the cell phone while directing traffic in front of Amagansett school. The first time I witnessed her on the phone, she put the phone between her shoulder and ear so she could hold traffic with both hands while nodding to the children to cross with her head at the same time she was holding that phone between shoulder and ear. Do the math. It's very sad an employee of the town of Amagansett has such an important call to distract her from the safety of the children she is there to protect! Thank you, Whitney Lewis Sag Harbor, NY. Via e-mail Wow. - DR number of houses to be built, but allowed a for-profit business to operate on the easement. This dual use of a parcel of property (which wouldn't have been allowed under the original standard subdivision plan filed by the developer nor allowed under the Community Preservation Fund program) effectively increased the yield, an important consideration for a rancher in need of financing. Additionally, Southampton allows any developer to build large structures, outbuildings, parking lots, trailer facilities, etc. on the agricultural reserve easement, also an important consideration for a rancher who operates a for-profit business. Furthermore, the easement apparently doesn't even have to consist of open space. It may meander between houses, thereby making parts of the easement similar to any standard subdivision, the only difference being that in a standard subdivision the open space between houses is not open to the public, whereas in a PRD the space between houses may be owned by a business. If I remember correctly, law from grazing livestock on an easement next to houses precluded Deep Hollow Ranch. However, if Deep Hollow had created a Southampton-style easement, then the Ranch would have been able to hold cattle drives between houses...that is, if Southampton's easements are fair. In my opinion, a PRD can be a very effective vehicle for preserving open space at no cost to taxpayers as long as the open space is not given away to developers to sell. A classic PRD that creates a large meadow around which houses are built is a very desirable and Police Blotter Egged A man in East Hampton reported to police that somebody threw eggs at his house, causing a large mess on Halloween. The man acknowledged that he was not providing candy to the neighborhood at the time of the incident. Egg Nog A woman in Southampton reported that somebody spilled egg nog all over her front porch on the night of Halloween. The woman, according to all accounts, was providing excellent candy to kids and is dumbfounded by the incident. Not An Egg A man in Montauk reported that somebody threw a large rock at his car, which was parked outside his place of business. Damage to the vehicle included a smashed rear power window along with a small fixed window and bent window frame. Total damage to the car was estimated at $500 and the man reported that he has no known problems with any individuals in the area that would have provoked the incident. No items were missing from inside the vehicle and a check of the area for possible witnesses had no results. Mr. Golden Sun A woman in Amagansett crashed with another vehicle in the wrong lane. The woman said that the glare from the sun caused her to veer into the other lane of the road. The woman was not wearing sunglasses. In general, when there is a glare from the sun, it is not a good idea to swerve into oncoming traffic. Underage Driver A 19-year-old was pulled over after police spotted him failing to stay within the marked travel lane. After stopping the vehicle, the officer noticed that the young man was intoxicated. He was arrested and transported to headquarters where he was processed and held for arraignment. Not A Costume A highly intoxicated man was seen stumbling through the street in Southampton. When he was confronted, he tried to say that he was not intoxicated and that his Halloween costume was to be a "drunk guy." The plan didn't work. Food Thief An unidentified person at the Dan's Papers office has been caught on numerous occasions stealing snacks off both a sales person's and production person's desk. The snacks have included potato chips, halves of bagels, Ritz crackers and Pringles. The suspect is believed to be employed by Dan's Papers. Both victims have gone to great lengths to prevent the thefts from happening, including hiding the snacks while at work. An investigation is underway. Fancy Watch A watch that is valued at $24,000 was reported missing from a home in East Hampton. It was later determined that the watch had not been stolen, after the owner of the watch found it sitting on top of his $76,000 toilet.
