By Rick MurphyAudiences immediately realize

what they are seeing onstage is spe-cial. The actors emote, but there is more going on – these performances are tinged with real-life experiences, and the lines between fiction and reality are intentionally blurred.

When The East End Special Play-ers take the stage at Bay Street Theatre in Sag Harbor on April 26 for the first of two performances, it will mark a milestone: 20 years of performances under the guidance and leadership of Jacqui Leader, the Artistic Director of the troupe.

Leader, originally from Detroit, caught the acting bug and moved to Manhattan to study theater. She married a film producer and moved to England. With two small children, the natural progression was to start a theater company for children.

Leader eventually relocated to Amagansett almost three decades ago and began acting locally. “I did theater mostly with Glyde Hart,” she recalled. “Our first production was Danny and The Deep Blue Sea at the Stephen Talkhouse.”

Leader also continued to work with children. She started Kids Connect and later became program

A Special Theater Troupe Hits A Milestonedirector at CMEE.

“Glyde said she had a theater group for the learning disabled and she was looking for a director.” Smit-ten, Leader signed on. She’s been there ever since. “That was 20 years ago – we’re growing old together,” she said with a laugh.

“Jacqui has been an extraordi-nary guiding light for the Players. Her unique and inspiring techniques have given this troupe of learning challenged adults skills to express the talents they never knew they had,” said Mary Spitzer, a colleague at EESP.

The process has evolved over the years. A production typically takes over a year to mature. The actors, many with Down’s Syndrome, most often live in group homes, and meet on Saturday mornings. Often times, the troupe members emote about their own lives, and the dialogues are captured on videotape. “They talk about everything that is both-ering them. What they are happy about, what they are sad about.” Leader said many of the topics are universal themes: “I want to have a baby,” “I don’t like my job,” I’m afraid of death.” Then the troupe interacts and improvises.

Bridget LeRoy sometimes scripts

some of the rehearsals and produces a manuscript that becomes the live performance.

“Working with the EESP is one of the great experiences of my life,” LeRoy said. “To be in a room with so much overlooked wisdom, to be part of their theatrical process, was an honor I will never forget.”

The magic happens onstage. Be-cause the actors have so much lee-way, the audience literally becomes part of the performance. “You never know what’s going to happen. There might well be interaction with the audience members,” Leader said. “It really triggers something. I always tell the audience `you are a part of this experience,’” Leader said. Sometimes, the actors get stage fright. One actor said, “I can’t do this, I can’t go on’ at a recent per-formance. The audience members encouraged her. “She got out there and she came to life.”

The process has yielded some unforgettable performances. One actor, who suffers from schizophre-nia, carefully walked the tightrope between reality and theater: “One day I’m here, the next day I’m not,” she told the audience. Another suf-fers from dementia. “She knows about it. She talks about it,” Leader

said. “She wonders ‘is it me or my character’ onstage.”

It makes for a compelling night of theater. “Most of the players have great senses of humor. It combines fun, self-expression, and theater together,” LeRoy noted.

In their newest play Gigi: Eyes Of A Doll, the players explore everything from birth defects to falling in love, to having babies to meeting the challenges of old age – all through the eyes of a doll. These are their stories told against a backdrop of highly imaginative theatrical stag-ing and music.

I’m talking about Kim Jong-un.Okay, let’s have a show of hands.I say we send a drone and put

Let’S dRone tHe LittLe Fat BaStaRd

this little nut away before he can do any harm to his own people as well as to anyone else.

How many of you mentally raised your hands?

How many of you are horrified?Okay, for those of you who are

horrified at my suggestion, here’s a question for you: If we had drones in 1939 and we could have taken out Adolf Hitler before he could start World War II and kill tens of millions of people, would you have agreed it was the thing to do?

This little fat turd Kim Jong-un has a hydrogen bomb, he has rockets . . . He can’t reach our shores yet but the day will come when he can and he will do it.

For those of you who are terminally liberal: According to a recent poll, 46 percent of the public says the crisis can be successfully

resolved by diplomatic or economic means.

Do you actually think we should talk and try to reason and negotiate and make concessions and turn it over to the U.N. and talk and talk and talk?

For you I have another question: Do you really think this crazy little punk will someday become sane? He has threatened “all-out nuclear war.” He has threatened to level Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Hawaii and Austin, Texas with total nuclear devastation.

United States officials are secretly worried that the day will come when he will have the capability to use a “space launch vehicle” to launch a nuclear weapon high over the U.S. mainland and explode it, creating a high-altitude EMP effect which could take down most of the U.S. power grid.

To my liberal “Let’s wait and see” friends: Tell me again why we should wait until he has the capacity to act on his threats?

He will not change. He is a 27 year old with nuclear weapons who, as my good friend KT McFarland recently said, should not even be allowed to play with matches.

This is a chance for our “Drone” President Barack Obama to show what he is made of. He has made great use of drones to kill thousands of Al-Qaeda terrorists. Now let’s see him use a drone to kill one nuclear terrorist.

Before we drone Kim Jong-un, let us secretly woo and quietly reach out to the following North Korean generals: Vice Marshal Ri Yong Ho, Chief of the General Staff

in Pyongyang, General Ri Yong Gil, Director of the Operation Bureau, and General Kim Yong Chol, who is a Vice Chief of the General Staff.

There’s a good chance one of these men will take over when Kim Jong-un is pushing up daisies.

Let us promise these new North Korean leaders our total support.

Let us reassure China that we have no designs on their sphere of influence.

Let us finally move our 27,000 troops out of South Korea.

Let us offer a food airlift to feed the poor starving people of North Korea. They are the real victims of this mad man and his hideous father before him.

Let us smile and tolerate what will be an avalanche of hand wringing by the United Nations and those “In a larger sense aren’t we all guilty” headlines and editorials in The New York Times.

Let us acknowledge that by killing this fat little punk, Barack Obama will have changed the course of war.

In the future, before a leader threatens any nation with nuclear devastation (are you listening, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad?), he will face extinction without another single life lost. When they can’t hide behind an army, political leaders may become a lot more peaceful.

The drone genie is out of the bottle – maybe it could be the best thing that ever happened to mankind.

You lost the vote, get over it. That was the message community member Ira Barocas attempted to inpart to Councilwoman Theresa Quigley last week. It was a tall order for the councilwoman, who continued to vehemently oppose the notion of a conducting a town wide study of septic systems.

A resolution selecting a consultant to undertake the study fueled another high volume interchange at the dais during Thursday night’s regularly scheduled town board meeting. Community member Carole Campolo got the ball rolling during the meeting’s public comment portion.

Campolo reminded that she reviewed contracts throughout her career in Manhattan. She questioned East Hampton’s “very sloppy” process and particularly questioned the selection of Lombardo Associates to conduct the study.

The Republican committee member alleged “considerable conflict of interest,” since firm principal Pio Lombardo had participated in panel discussions about wastewater, and offered an elaborate presentation on a system he sells last year. Campolo fears Lombardo had special access to the town board not granted to others who participated in the Request for Proposal process, and worried he will review septic issues, then recommend the use of his own technology.

Campolo likened it to “putting the fox in charge of the chicken coop.” She wants the town board to have the consultant sign an affidavit promising he wouldn’t bid on any of the suggested fixes. Campolo also called for an independent investigation into the RFP process.

‘Septic Police? Really?’“I fear we’re going to a place where we will have septic police coming to our houses . . . We’re going to become

a police state.” ~ Theresa Quigley

Of the respondents , two engineering firms have access to town board members “every day,” Councilwoman Sylvia Overby pointed out. They already work for the town in other capacities. A third firm, Clearflo, met privately with town supervisor Bill Wilkinson, Overby pointed out.

The process was not flawed, Councilman Peter Van Scoyoc said. There was a blind grading system, and recommendations came from a committee after extensive review.

Quigley jumped in, repeatedly stating that she “didn’t know” if the process was flawed, if the correct criteria was used to review proposals, or what was proposed or not proposed. “Didn’t you ask [committee member and town natural resources director] Kim Shaw?” Van Scoyoc queried.

Quigley continued to complain about what she didn’t know about the process and the proposals till she lit on something “startling” she claims the Lombardo proposal includes. The proposal spoke of other work undertaken for another municipality that included upgrading 1500 septic systems at a cost of $40 million. Addressing systems in vulnerable areas in East Hampton will end up costing three times as much, she fears.

Van Scoyoc reminded her, repeatedly, that the study will provide recommendations; the town board will ultimately decide which East Hampton will embrace. “To say let’s not even begin the study . . . I think is obstructionist, really,” he said.

A study is a waste of money, Quigley continued. “We already know where the sensitive areas are,” she said. The study would review residential septic systems as well as the town’s scavenger waste facility.

The councilwoman complained that the town already spent $100,000 on studying the scav plant before Van Scoyoc and Overby joined the board in 2012. Pressed by the pair to give more information about the $100,000 study, Quigley, who also said she met with “a million people” about the scav plant, backed off, stating she wasn’t exactly sure what the town spent studying the scav plant.

A third hyperbolic assertion prompted Van Scoyoc to scold, “Don’t exaggerate. Let’s keep the discussion based in fact.”

Apparently likening a study suggestion to a mandate, Quigley predicted the advent of “septic police.”

“I fear we’re going to a place where we will have septic police coming to our houses,” she said. “We’re going to become a police state,” Quigley continued, lamenting “a culture of over-control.”

“ I th ink your f e a r s a r e unfounded,” Van Scoyoc countered. “The septic police? Really, Theresa?”

“I have read the documents,” Quigley insisted. The proposal calls for a mandate that people report the status of their septic systems, how often they are serviced, to town officials.

“Wrong,” Van Scoyoc said. “It’s

not a requirement, it’s a suggestion.”Under the town code, he pointed

out, homeowners are already supposed to have their systems inspected every three years anyway. Quigley interjected that “no one” ever does. “So much for the septic police,“ he said.

Also on Thursday night:• Community member Paul

Fiondella suggested the board find a way to simplify its payment in lieu of parking program. He thought a taxing district with money used to purchase land for the construction of parking might work.

• Barocas referenced a work session discussion about permitting a charter boat to dock at the town dock at Gann Road. It doesn’t seem appropriate to give a sweetheart deal to a business operating on town property, he said. He wants to make sure the town, i.e. the taxpayers, is compensated fairly for allowing the boat to use a town asset.

• Margaret Turner of the East Hampton Bus iness A l l iance asked board members to come to consensus with “a sense of urgency” about finding ways to deal with erosion that threatens beachfront properties, especially those in downtown Montauk. “Keep this as a number one priority,” she said. “We need our beaches. We need downtown Montauk.”

They’ve been practicing for weeks, singing, learning choreography. This Friday night the spotlight will shine on a bevy of talented Springs students as the school hosts it annual “Springs Idol” contest.

E l even per formances are scheduled for this Friday beginning at 7 PM in the school gym/auditorium. Principal Eric Casale this week spoke of the dedication evinced by wouldbe Idols.

Springs ‘Idol’ On TapKids in grades five through

eight are invited to participate in the program, he explained. And, he noted, about half the kids participate more than once, returning for another shot, even if they didn’t capture the title in prior years.

“They really get into it,” Casale said. “They give up so much time, after school, at night and during recess.”

The process of preparing for their

big stage debut allows children to demonstrate their individuality. While some performers are covering classic and popular songs, others have even written original music for the performance. “This really taps in to their love of music and dance,” Casale said.

The school principal affirmed that current core learning standards emphasize a student’s ability to speak or perform publicly. As early as Kindergarten, kids are encouraged to get up in front of peers and share. Weekly Spirit meets also provide a public speaking/sharing opportunity for kids.

Speaking specifically to this

week’s Idol, Casale said, “It’s great to see young students, aged 11 or 12 feel so confident in displaying their artistic love and talent.”

Casale is a judge in this week’s competition, so he hasn’t been privy to rehearsals. But, he enthused, “I can tell from what I hear in the halls, our kids are well prepared to knock the ball out of the park.”

The reality game show “American Idol” began airing in 2002 and is still popular. A consistent ratings grabber, the competition launched the careers of such singing sensations as Carrie Underwood, Kelly Clarkson and Jordin Sparks, and spawned community-based “Idol” competitions across the country, including the seventh annual “Hamptons Idol,” which was held last week in Hampton Bays and organized by the Town of Southampton Youth Bureau.

Our future in food. It’s tickets for chemical-laden cleaners eco-fning solutions. As if you haven’t heard, Americans love food.

By Chris LaubachREPORTER

Grocery store shelves burst at the seams with up-wards of 10,000 new food and beverage products to choose from each year. No wonder we’re stressed out. Even though many of those products won’t make it past their fi rst year, some of them will make the most of Amer-ica’s fi ckle eating habits and even change are consump-tion habits. Remember when

bottled water was a frou-frou luxury? Plus, people want to achieve a healthy nutritional balance that allows them to live longer and feel better and they often look to food for that. With many people shun-ning their traditional doctors’ visits and instead self-medi-cating with nutrition-related remedies, it goes to follow that the food choices we make matter more. Extreme dieters aside, a growing number of people

Green cleaners clean up.

By Ryan BloeckerREPORTER

Cabinets and closets in American households might currently contain more than 10 gallons worth of harmful chemicals, but with harmful chemicals getting a bad rap all around, experts say this number will likely decrease

each year. Although they’re disguised by names like formalde-hyde, phenol, hydrochloride acid, perchlorethylene and petroleum distillates, toxic chemicals lurk in everything from the fragrances of air fresheners to carpet clean-ers; dishwasher detergents to furniture polish. There’s plenty of clear evidence that these harsh chemicals pose a health danger, and there are other chemicals out there that have never even been.

Our future in food. It’s tickets for chemical-laden cleaners eco-fning solutions. As if you haven’t heard, Americans love food.

By Chris LaubachREPORTER

Grocery store shelves burst at the seams with up-wards of 10,000 new food and beverage products to choose from each year. No wonder we’re stressed out. Even though many of those products won’t make it past their fi rst year, some of them will make the most of Amer-ica’s fi ckle eating habits and even change are consump-tion habits. Remember when

bottled water was a frou-frou luxury? Plus, people want to achieve a healthy nutritional balance that allows them to live longer and feel better and they often look to food for that. With many people shun-ning their traditional doctors’ visits and instead self-medi-cating with nutrition-related remedies, it goes to follow that the food choices we make matter more. Extreme dieters aside, a growing number of people

For the past century, Mill Pond in Water Mill has been suffering.

Storm runoff and increases in residential properties have caused the pond to become heavily polluted with phosphorus, affecting the water quality and potentially causing a severe ecological imbalance.

“Fertilizer is the real culprit here,” said Southampton Town Trustee Fred Havemeyer. “Fertilizer, soap and household products.”

Last year, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation deemed Mill Pond impaired. Further studies also showed the pond had cyanobacteria blooms with potential to produce high levels of cyano toxins.

T hat’s all about to change.The NYSDEC issued Southampton

the permits necessary to move forward with the Mil l Pond restoration efforts, and a first-of-its-kind experimental treatment to address the chronic water quality problems in the pond has begun.

On Monday, the Town of Southampton and the Board of Trustees started a project to

Mill Pond On The Mendaddress the phosphorus pollution. An application of the phosphorus locking technology called Phoslock was distributed throughout the pond. This is the first of two applications of the modified clay technology.

Nearly 100,000 pounds of the clay-like mineral were dispersed into the pond, with the granules spreading throughout the 30-acre body of water.

The two-year project is slated to cost $434,000 with the town contributing $384,000 and the trustees contributing $50,000. There will also be additional implementation and monitoring expenses.

“It’s a cutting edge, state of the art thing,” said Havemeyer.

Following application, Phoslock will settle out of the water column, integrate with bottom sediments and continue to bind phosphorus over time. The phosphorus-Phoslock bond is permanent and forms a naturally occurring mineral (Rhabdophane) that integrates with the natural bottom sediments. Phoslock is certified for use in

drinking water and poses negligible risk to the aquatic environment.

The town and trustees will be monitoring water quality in Mill Pond over the next year to assess performance of the project and to comply with the NYSDEC permit requirements. The second phase of

the Phoslock application is planned for spring of next year.

“The natural system will come back into place,” Havemeyer said. “The pond can come back, more aquatic birds will come back. The treatment could last forever.”

They had to rescind the law because it was passed in violation of the law. Last Thursday night, the town board was required, under New York State Town Law, to rescind taxi regulations adopted during the April 2 work session.

Town attorney John Jilnicki explained that state law requires that final version of a draft law must be distributed to town board members seven days before its adoption.

They didn’t even have seven minutes last week.

Councilwoman Theresa Quigley called for a vote on the amendment to existing cab law during the work session without offering a written version for colleagues to review. She

Where ‘Whatever’ Replace Whereasdid the same regarding a previously discussed licensing agreement that would waive parking fees for the Montauk Brewing Company.

Discussion of both extemporaneous measures was heated and free floating – so much so Town Clerk Fred Overton reported Friday that both he and his deputy Carol Brennan had to watch video of the interchanges several times in order to ascertain exactly how the resolutions should read for the record. “It’s frustrating, believe me,” he said.

Questioned about specific points during the discussion, Quigley replied “whatever” several times, then pushed for the resolutions’ adoption.

Van Scoyoc voted no on the brewery resolution because “it was cooked up

on the spot,” and abstained on the cab measure because he wanted to be able to read through the amendment.

Asked to weigh in on the notion of resolutions proposed verbally and “on the spot,” Bob Freeman, executive director of the New York State Committee on Open Government pointed out that the law makes “no distinction” between work sessions and regular meetings. The same rules apply to both.

A new section of Open Meetings Law speaks to advance notice of “proposed resolutions, law, rules, regulations, policies or amendments thereto,” according to a brief on the committee’s website. Adopted in 2012, it states copies of documents slated for discussion must be made available to the public prior to meetings either in hard copy or posted online “when practicable.” But, Freeman noted, the board is under no obligation to prepare an agenda or make one available.

“Through the disclosure of records scheduled to be discussed during open meetings, the public can gain the ability to better understand and appreciate the issues faced by government,” the committee’s memo notes.

So could members of the town board, or those affected by a particular measure.

Lawrence Kelly is an attorney representing members of the taxi industry. Present during the work session discussion, he said, “Nobody walked away knowing what any document would indicate, because there was no document.”

As the discussion of the regulations progressed over previous months, it was suggested that members of the community be included, to offer input and feedback. Kelly said he appreciated the inclusion, but Quigley’s move last week “aborted that process.” Not only were he and his clients (plus the town board) unable to see the final adopted regulations; they weren’t advised that the measure was up for discussion, only learning about it through Quigley’s posting the day before on the Patch website.

“I don’t think East Hampton Town has taken the Freedom of Information Law, Open Meetings law, and public officers law to heart,” Kelly summarized.

Asked to weigh in on the notion of resolutions offered verbally from the floor rather than presented formally for review, Van Scoyoc said dryly, “It’s become ‘whatever’ instead of ‘whereas.’”

Shelter Tails!

By Emily Toy

Today and tomorrow round out International Dark Sky Week, designated by a recently adopted resolution from the Southampton Town Board at the end of March.

In an effort to celebrate and spread awareness of this international event, most outdoor lighting at town hall has been turned off early since Friday and will continue to be turned off early through tomorrow.

“Our starry night sky is a valuable resource,” the resolution states, “a part of our cultural and natural heritage similar to our scenic vistas, open space, woodland, farmland, beaches and waterways.”

The town board adopted an

Southampton Promotes Dark Skiesoutdoor lighting code in 2009 to reduce light pollution and establish standards for outdoor lighting.

“The town board recognized the environmental importance of reducing light pollution, which can have a damaging effect on local plant and animal species that rely on a night cycle,” said Jenn Hartnagel, member of the Southampton Town Dark Sky Advisory Committee and senior environmental advocate for the Group for the East End.

The group also noted that reducing light pollution also helps conserve energy, makes roads safer by reducing glare, and improves quality of life by preventing light trespass from one neighbor’s property to another.

So far this week, residents, businesses and others have been encouraged to learn more about light pollution and enjoy stargazing on clear nights. The East End is one of the few places on Long Island where the Milky Way is clearly visible.

“We appreciate the town board’s support of International Dark Sky Week, which will help the committee focus attention on the problems caused by light pollution and on the town regulations that help curtail outdoor lighting that is excessive, misdirected or unnecessary,” said Gail Clyma, Dark Sky Advisory Committee Chair.

When Leader first came aboard, the Players performed only in mime. Today she has them not only acting with words and music, but creating the plays themselves.

After the Bay Street gig, the troupe will hit the road – they’ve performed at numerous schools, Guild Hall, The Westhampton Beach Performing Arts and as far away as the Governor’s Mansion in Albany. Then it will be back to the drawing board on Saturday mornings.

“It’s very rewarding,” Leader commented. “It’s a social place. They develop relationships, even get married. It’s a beautiful experience.”

MontaukRotary Club Honorees

The East Hampton Rotary Club has John Ryan, Sr. and John Ryan, Jr. as its 2013 Persons of the Year.

Both Ryans, in addition to being educators, have been involved with water safety for years. “They are dedicated to the safety of children and adults in the town of East Hampton,” according to a release announcing the honor.

John Sr., who has been a lifeguard for approximately 50 years, is a coordinator for the East Hampton Lifeguard Training, a

coordinator for the junior lifeguard training and currently heads the education committee for the Volunteer Ocean Rescue Squad. He is a volunteer with the Ocean Rescue Squad and chair of the Water Safety Committee. He was instrumental in the formation of the East Hampton Hurricanes swim team. A documentary entitled “Big Bad John’s Lifeguards for Life” was produced recently.

While John Sr. continues to be involved with the lifeguard training programs, he has given some of the responsibilities to John Jr. who is as enthusiastic about water safety programs as his dad. In addition to the lifeguard training programs, John Jr. started a water safety program for fifth graders. He, too, was instrumental in the formation of the Hurricanes.

The dinner honoring the Ryans will take place on Monday, at the Harvest in Montauk, with cocktails at 5:30, the dinner and program at 6 PM. For more information on the dinner, please call 631-238-5257 or 631-324-1755.

PETof the Week

By Sue Hansen

Selecting a pet requires serious consideration. So many people gravitate to the “cute little puppy” and who can blame them? But that “doggie in the window” weighing 10 pounds now may be pushing

50-plus in a few short months. And they may not be the ideal playmate for your young toddler or situation.

“Tulie” is a terrific female, friendly and plays with other dogs her size, but proved to be too much dog for her home with two small canines. So, she is back to square one, looking for someone to love and love her back. Tulie is 2 1/2 years young, approximately. 55 pounds and entertains herself with an oversized ball at Dog Town NY in Southold. Please call 631-765-8844 if you would like to consider foster care or adoption. All she needs is a second chance with the right home.

Lots of folks go on vacation and fall in love with the exotic locale and return over and over again.

I have friends who have been to Hawaii a dozen times. Others go to Puerto Rico every year.

Maybe it’s the sparkling waters or decadent food or just the familiarity of the place that draws them back. I, too, have that “special place” I return to every year about this time – Albany, New York.

For those who are too young to

My Blissful Vacationremember (or too old to remember) Governor Nelson Rockefeller spent billions of dollars creating the Empire State Plaza in downtown Albany, reshaping the city and thus building a lasting monument to himself.

I have been going to Albany for 28 years, gathering with a group of friends who live there every year. Not one lives downtown. No one goes downtown. It was a gigantic waste of money.

But I am not there to sightsee, though I’m quite certain there are magnificent attractions in Albany, somewhere. I go for the annual National Albany Rotisserie Baseball League draft, held in a seedy neighborhood at The Orchard Tavern, a sports bar with greasy food and giant televisions. We love it.

To say Rockefeller was a staunch Conservative would be a severe understatement. He was a strong proponent of the death penalty, and he pushed through some of the harshest drug laws ever conceived, sending low-level pot dealers to state prison for 20 years and more.

Rockefeller was an extremely wealthy man. We know this because, duh, he was a Rockefeller. He divorced his first wife Mary in 1962, leaving her the 30-room apartment on Fifth Avenue, and married Margaretta “Happy” Murphy, who was much younger than the first wife.

(Note: Happy wasn’t related to my branch of the Murphy clan, because no one in my family is happy. In fact, my uncle’s name is “Clinically Depressed” and we fondly refer to my little sister as “Suicidal Tendencies” – but I digress.)

The marriage, which probably killed any chance to Rockefeller becoming president, was fairly scandalous at the time. As it was Rockefeller ran for president three times and served as vice president under Gerald Ford, which prompted the joke, “Ford asking Rockefeller to be VP is like asking Morris The Cat to guard the tuna salad.”

There were a lot of jokes going around like, “What was Nelson Rockefeller doing in the middle of the night?”

“He was feeling Happy.”The 20 or so guys (and one lady,

Sue) who gather at The Orchard try to be cordial with each other, but this is a big money Fantasy Baseball League and the truth is we hate each other. We spend eight hours trying to make each other miserable while we draft our teams, often engaging in bitter bidding wars just to spite the other guy.

One of the highlights every year is when we have our first “Piss Break” at 11 AM. Everyone rushes to the bathroom simultaneously though only one person fits in it. Sue always moans, “I hate waiting on line.” That’s her joke – she is usually the only woman in the bar and thus has the ladies room to herself. But if one of the guys tries to use it she runs up to the owner and tells him there is a pervert in the ladies room exposing himself.

Rockefeller eventually tired of feeling Happy. On January 26, 1979 he died of a heart attack at the age of 70. It was said he was in his office working on a book, but eventually the story broke down.

Nelson Rockefeller died in the saddle in his midtown townhouse. Underneath him was his 25-year-old assistant. The inevitable jokes followed: “How did Nelson Rockefeller die?”

“Low blood pressure: 70 over 25.” My favorite line was, “Rockefeller didn’t know if he was coming or going.”

I usually stay at some seedy motel around the corner from the sports bar. Last year, though, I vowed never to go back again. That’s because when I went down to dinner I was the only person in the restaurant. I ordered wine and the waiter disappeared. I saw him at the check-in desk a half hour later. He was the only employee in the place.

This time around I stayed at a luxury hotel, and ate at what was dubbed a “five star” restaurant except the radicchio was actually red cabbage so I kind of doubt it really deserved that rating. (Also, neither myself nor the waiter could identify two or three things in the bouillabaisse but I ate them anyway.)

Someday, I promised Karen, I will take her on a luxurious vacation in some exotic locale. But I didn’t tell her it would be Albany. I want to surprise her.

EDITORIAL

Independent VOICES

Continued on page 20.

Crooked PoliticiansThe fact that New York State is awash with crooked politicians makes us the laughing

stock of the country. The fiasco involving State Senator Malcolm A. Smith is merely the latest salvo – in all, more than two-dozen politicians have been convicted and/or censured in the past seven years, many for accepting bribes. Smith, a Democrat, engineered a scheme that, if successful, would have allowed him to run for Mayor of New York City – as a Republican, no less.

We at The Independent are stunned at the pay-to-play culture that pervades our political system. Specifically, the bribes being offered – 20 grand here, 10 grand there, are an affront to every well-heeled Hamptonite with an agenda. Is that all it takes? This is New York – we hold our politicians to much higher standards. They shouldn’t even consider taking bribes that aren’t in the six-figure range.

Honestly, we are not savages. Show some dignity, please.

Dealing With ErosionAny thoughts that our beaches would stabilize over time can now be put to rest.

Though erosion was relatively light over the centuries, in the last decade we have seen a rapid acceleration, particularly on the ocean side, that is intensifying. The debate on why this is occurring is relatively irrelevant, at least in the short term. It IS happening and finding an immediate solution is crucial.

Given the rash of devastating storms over the past few years, we can no longer afford the luxury of debating possible mitigating action. In Sagaponack and parts of Southampton, owners of waterfront properties are banding together to fund a massive replenishing project. Similar action is being contemplated for Montauk.

As Margaret Turner, the Executive Director of the East Hampton Business Alliance, aptly pointed out last week, the erosion problem in that hamlet affects not only the owners of waterfront properties but also the entire downtown area. What probably seemed implausible a century ago now looms as a near certainty – one of these days a giant storm is going to literally wipe out the downtown shopping area.

Yes, Hurricane Sandy spared Montauk, but we saw in the Rockaways and Breezy Point what can happen with a direct hit.

We don’t pretend to have the solution. What we do know, though, is this is not a political issue, nor is it a debate between business owners, developers and environ-mentalists. All solutions must be put on the table, including hard structures with the girth necessary to withstand a strong surge. The current town board must bring experts in, listen to them, and make the difficult call about what to do next. The time is now.

Yes, waterfront property owners will need too ante up to protect their investments, but the town, county, state and federal government are all needed to implement a plan of action and share the cost.

Key To SuccessDear Editor,

A key to economic growth? Over the

next five years, if our national economy improves, tourism in the Peconic Bay, five-town region, an important segment of our local economy, will be expected to grow exponentially - if we plan well ahead to meet this anticipated growth.

In Southold Town, to address and plan for this welcomed economic growth, public mass transportation will become key to success. Without this key to success, tourists will slowly stop coming. They will not be inconvenienced and frustrated by

our present antiquated roads, bus and rail system - they will. over time, leave. And they will take a substantial part of our future with them.

Have you got any spring break memories?

Liz DiFeboI was very young. We went down to Florida andwe had a swimming race. You had to drink ashot on either side of the pool. I called mymother to tell her I’d won a trophy doing it andshe hung up on me. She didn’t say a word. Shejust hung up the phone.

Adrienne BergerI just remember being on spring break andgoing down to Florida with a few of my sororitysisters and we just had a ball. We stayed out allnight and then we stayed on the beach so longwe got very, very sunburned. Boy oh boy didwe pay the price for that!

Linda CalderI went to Montego Bay, Jamaica with a coupleof girlfriends. I was in college at FIT. We had aball. We went to hear local music and ate localfish and local conch and we snorkeled. We meta lot of other college kids from the Midwest. Itwas really fun.

Joan LevineI grew up in the city where I took ballet classand I studied piano. I went to The High Schoolof Performing Arts where the schedule kept youvery busy. There wasn’t much time to practice.Spring break was when you could put in lots oftime practicing.

Worship The GroundDear Rick,

Dear Earth, what have we done for you lately? You are our homeland. You have given us so much. Home is where the heart is. It protects us. It gives us shelter. Our home is us.

We will try to be worthy of your generosity and give thanks for these gifts you bestow on us. The bright blue sky, the dark night with its twinkling stars. Snowflakes that come to rest on our eyelids. A gentle breeze that moves us. The ocean’s endless bounty. Farms that supply nourishment for our mind and bodies to grow. The very chance to be somebody in this magnificent world.

I worship the very ground I walk upon. I would rather be nowhere else but here. My place. My home. My little corner of the world: My home - America, USA.

Let’s Let’s Let’s Let’s Play Bridge

By George Aman

This hand was played on April 2 at the Water Mill Bridge Club. Like most East-West teams, my partner, Larry Hillel, and I bid to 3 hearts. Besides being the common contract (two teams bid only 2 hearts), 3 hearts was the correct contract. In fact, if West’s king of hearts was the ace, most teams would have ended up in 4 hearts.

However, bridge is a game of probabilities. With eight trumps in the East-West hands, the probability is that the outstanding five trumps would be split 3-2 in the North-South hands. In this case, the trumps split 4-1 and, to make matters worse, North held both the ace and queen along with the nine and five. No declarer was able to overcome this unfortunate bad break in trumps. The teams that bid three went down one trick and the two teams that stopped at two hearts made exactly two.

The moral of this story is that the teams that stopped at two hearts looked good but those that went down were actually the better bidders. One way that you can verify this statement is to shuffle the 26 cards that North and South hold and to deal them again while leaving the East West cards as they are. Most of the time West will make 3 hearts.

Any questions or comments can be sent to [email protected]. If you know four or five dedicated people who would like to learn how to play the world’s most challenging and exciting card game, please call me at 631-907-2917 or e-mail me at the above address.

We’ve written in the past about radar and its advances (see The Independent archives at indyeastend.com for “Radar for the Private Boater – your Eye Ayes!” and “’High Def’ Comes to Radar – Will Anything be the Same?”) and I remain a devotee’ of the technology. But you need to understand what you are seeing, or not seeing and why. This column is about that.

Best Case – What Can It See?Radar is one of those technologies

where math and physics dominate. To make matters worse for Americans, much of the math that relates to surface areas is in metric scale and the speeds are in meters. Remember that a meter and a yard are close enough in size that, for

prevent Collisions at Sea: More Radar – What’s Blinding You?

the layman, you can read “yard” when you see “meter” and it will work for you from the standpoint of understanding.

What does this mean? Surface area reflection – the key item when it comes to what can we see under what conditions – is a measure called “Radar Cross Section” (RCS).

The RCS of an object, expressed in square meters (Remember that a square yard is an area 3 feet by 3 feet), measures the strength of an object’s signal returns to your device. Objects with high RCS’s return signals from a greater distance and through tougher weather conditions than any object

with a lower RCS, at a given amount of power output from your radar.

So, what are typical objects in terms of square meters (yards), as measured from stem to stern to gunwale? A tender is roughly 3 RCS (9’ long x 1’ gunwale); a typical recreational boat would be roughly a 10 RCS (18’ long x 1.5’ gunwale); a Navy cruiser might be about 10,000 RCS!

If some of these distances seem short, they are because small objects with a small amount of power will not, given the laws of physics, throw a big signal back. And this is under ideal conditions.

Sidebar: If you are in a small vessel, add a radar deflector to make you look larger than you are!

In the column on radar, I noted that one of the issues to keep in mind is that heavy seas can cause you to see even less than you think since, at the crest of the wave, your radar’s beam is shooting into space and, while sliding down into the trough, it is shooting into the water. Counter-intuitively, perfectly flat seas actually work against range since you don’t pick up the little bit of extra distance that small waves will give you – kind of a paint brush approach.

What Really Hurts?Fog, rain and high waves are

increasingly dense and thus impair “see-ability” as they get denser. For example, fog where you can see roughly a tenth of a nautical mile (200 yards) has no meaningful effect. If you can only see 20 yards, that is a real problem. A light to moderate amount of rain (1/2 inch per hour) is not going to cause any serious attenuation.

A moderate to high amount of rain (1 1/2 inches per hour) is definitely going to close up the range, particularly for longer distance. Waves up to a foot, which isn’t much, have no effect and in fact help spread the radar beam. Also, perversely, the wave action will interfere with the radar ability to detect an object nearby since the waves surround you as well as the target. In five-foot seas, a small boat (10 RCS, above) becomes nearly invisible to radar when the range decreases to one nautical mile. In short, once the wave height (trough to peak) reaches a boat’s freeboard height, the vessel becomes very difficult to see – as range decreases!

What Helps?Any vessel can increase its

visibility by adding a radar reflector. Mounted as high as possible, it can simply be a shoe-box covered in aluminum foil. Being more visible, no matter what your RCS, is better than not. Of course, there are commercial devices that you can find on the internet such as RadarFlag, Hamilton Marine, Davis and EchoMax, amongst many . . . You can even mount an old spaghetti pot if you want! Just knock a hole or two in the bottom so it doesn’t fill with rain ater.

See and be seen is our motto. It should be yours too!

BTW, if you are interested in being part of USCG Forces, email me at [email protected] or go directly to the D1SR Human Resources department, which is in charge of new members matters, at DSO-HR and we will help you “get in this thing . . .”

Looking for a low cost car or car parts? Check online. East Hampton Village is auctioning off surplus and impounded vehicles online this week.

U s ing the webs i t e www.auctionsinternational.com, the village will offer 19 vehicles in varying degrees of drive-ability. They include a 2006 Ford Expedition, a 1998 Ford Expedition, a 1999 Dodge Ram pickup, an ’02 Ram pickup, a ’96 Ford Explorer, and more. The ’06 Expedition has gleaned the highest bid so far at $3550.

The website lists each vehicle, its highest bid so far, a picture of the car or truck, plus information about its features or flaws. The lowest bid for the village lot, as of Monday was $105 for an electric powered bike described as “not in working condition.”

Bids close at 7:30 PM on Friday.Village officials previously

auc t i oned o f f su rp lu s and impounded vehicles using a sealed bid program. According to Village Administrator Larry Cantwell, in 2011 the village auctioned off 37 dealers for a profit yield of $38,000. One car in particular, a 2007 Toyota Cruiser, brought in $15,000.

“You get a mixture of vehicles,” Cantwell explained.

The sealed bid auction was very labor intensive for village employees. The new program takes

Need Wheels? Check Out Village Auctiona lot of the effort out of the initiative. The firm running the website did almost all the work, Cantwell explained. They took photos of the vehicles and gathered information. In return they get a percentage of the sale -- from the buyer, not the village.

There are currently h u n d r e d s , i f n o t thousands of online auction sites, many of which deal specifically with municipal or police vehicles only. Methodical browsers may find great deals. Additionally, each year Suffolk County hosts a PD auction of art, jewelry, boats, cars and more confiscated from convicted drug dealers through the asset forfeiture program.

The Pew Research Center began tracking online auction use since it first started gathering r e s e a r c h i n 2 0 0 0 . According to an article on the center’s website, in five years, from 2000 to 2005, the number of online auction users doubled.

OBITUARYEugenia Rice Bartell

Thoreau once said “My life is like a stroll on the beach… . . .as near to the edge as I can go.” And that was my mother, Eugenia Rice Bartell.

She was born in Manhattan on June 19, 1937. She attended Friends Seminary and then moved out to the family’s summer home in Belle Terre, Port Jefferson. “Genia” graduated

independent / Richard Lewin

from Earl L. Vandermullen High School, earned her degree at SUNY Oneonta, and married her high school sweetheart Michael Caraftis. The couple lived for a year in Mannheim, Germany while her husband was stationed there with the United States Army.

When they returned from overseas, they settled back into Port

Jefferson where Eugenia finished her education at C.W. Post and began a wonderful career teaching second-graders. She loved to teach and the children responded well to her enthusiasm.

She had two children from this marriage, myself and Timothy. Genia married a second time, to Edward Bartell, and had a second daughter, also called Genia.

As alive and vivacious as my mother was during these years, enjoying her career as a beloved educator and relishing her role

as mother, she defined her ‘real’ life as beginning with a single trip to Gurney’s Inn in 1968. This was her introduction to her precious Montauk where she was to become a permanent fixture, and where she was led to the edge of the waterline, where she walked her whole life.

“Montauk is filled with magic, mystery and miracles” became her theme as she quickly assimilated into this easy-going community, reading to the children at St. Therese’s Nursery School, managing the gift shop at Guild Hall, becoming a real estate agent at Monte and Monte, and eventually incorporating her love of the written word into her work by becoming a free-lance editor, working with local favorite authors Richard Prince, Paul Melnyk, local photographer (and former Montauk Pioneer editor) Richard Lewin and others.

Having found her niche as a wordsmith she soon discovered her true passion as the community editor of the Montauk Pioneer. After the Pioneer ceased publication, Genia dreamed of filling the void left behind with a true “Montauk Paper.” Sadly this was not to be, for she passed away still walking that edge of the water and left us better for having known her, and all the worse for having lost her.

Eugenia Rice Bartell lived her life beating a different drum than the norm, but the rhythm she beat was always to make a difference for the good in the world in which she lived. She leaves three children, five grandchildren, her brother and her first husband.

A memorial service will be held at Montauk Community Church at 2 PM on May 4. Family has requested in lieu of flowers donations be made to ARF.

It’s still early in the season, but it’s never too early to revive old rivalries.

In this case Southampton and Pierson, fierce competitors in the old days, are together in League VIII baseball. Both are undefeated and on a collision course.

The Whalers ran their record to 4-0 Thursday, taking the ferry over to Shelter Island and coming home with a 13-3 victory. Shelter Island is winless after five games this season.

Jake Bennett recorded the win, allowing only one hit during his stint on the hill. Forrest Loesch, Aaron Schiavone and Nick Kruel led a balanced attack with three hits each. And combined for seven ribbies.

Southampton ran its record to

Pierson, Shelter Island Vie For First5-0 by besting Babylon at home last Wednesday.

Eddie McLaughlin earned the victory and also drilled two hits and plated two runs. Kevin Edgar went 3-3 and scored four times.

Southampton gets Center Moriches at home Friday (4:30 PM) and travels to Hampton Bays Tuesday for a 4 PM affair. The Baymen are 0-2 thus far in league action. Pierson plays at home and away with Southold tomorrow and Friday – the latter will be at Mashashimuet Park at 4:30 PM.

The Settlers won’t be rolling over - Southold sits atop the League IX standings with a 3-1 mark.

Friday Alex Poliwada spun a no-hitter as the Settlers traveled down the road to Greenport and shut out the Porters, 4-0. Anthony Fedele

and Rob Mahoney each stroked two hits and Shayne Johnson homered. Poliwoda recorded 11 strikeouts. Greenport fell into second place in League IX with a 3-2 mark.

In other action Friday Riverhead fell to 2-3 in League IV after losing at home to Centereach 4-1. East Hampton dropped into last place in League VII after getting crushed by Mt. Sinai 10-0. Bonac plays at Amityville Friday and at Glenn Tuesday. Mattituck lost to Southold 11-0. The Tuckers play Hampton Bays at home (4 PM) Friday and on the road against McCann-Mercy Tuesday.

In softball action Riverhead moved into fourth place in League IV by beating Hauppauge on the road Friday 7-2. Sara Tucci and Stephanie Falisa paced the offensive attack and Amanda Graziano earned the win. Graziano, by the way, will play field hockey at Mercy College next year. The Wave will play at Deer Park Friday and at Smithtown West Tuesday.

East Hampton got bopped by Bayport-Blue Point 4-1 Saturday. Bonac, 1-1 in League XI action, is on the road against Glenn tomorrow and plays at home Monday against Miller Place. That game is scheduled to begin at 4:30 PM.

What A Racket!For half of Friday’s game East

Hampton gave Sayville all the Gold-en Flashes could handle, although the visitors maintained an 8-5 half-time lead. But the Bonackers, who have yet to win this year, couldn’t contain the visitors in the second half.

Credit Sayville’s Taylor Mills, who drilled six scores and assisted on two other goals. The visitors pulled away to a 16-7 win, dropping East Hamp-ton to 0-3 in Division II play and 0-5 overall. Sayville is 3-0, 5-0 overall.

A bright spot for the home team was Maggie Pizzo, who scored four goals and added an assist.

East Hampton will take on East-port Friday at home beginning at 6 PM. On Monday the squad travels to Miller Place.

MindedSportsBy Pete Mundo

Golf takes center stage this week as the Masters rolls into Augusta, Georgia, for the 76th time. Many are calling it the most anticipated Masters in years because of the hype surrounding Tigers Woods.

This has once again brought on the over-asked, silly, poll question of who has the better odds to win: Tiger or The Field? Betting wise, The Field should blow Woods away, but it is stunning how often the public chooses Woods. Whether Tiger is back or not can be debated. What isn’t in doubt is that sports fans love a comeback story and Tiger Woods may be about to put the final touches on his tale of personal and professional redemption.

Tiger’s win three weeks ago at the Arnold Palmer Invitational was

tiger odds on Favorite in augusta

his eighth career victory at Bay Hill, his third win of the 2013 season and his sixth victory in his last twenty stroke-play starts. Tiger has regained the number one ranking in the world and now stands alone at second on the all-time wins list at 77, five back of Sam Snead.

While the media, fans, and Nike officials have declared Woods to be officially back, I don’t believe Tiger will feel back until he slides on another green jacket, or hoists another Claret Jug or U.S. Open or Wanamaker trophy.

Ever since his first Major victory at Augusta in 1997 and memorable embrace with his father Earl, Tiger has made it clear to the world that he wants to be defined by the number 18; the number of Majors

won by Jack Nicklaus. At age 37, and with 14 Majors to his name, Tiger hasn’t won a Major since 2008 and hasn’t won in Augusta in eight years.

While winning eight times at Bay Hill, passing Sam Snead for total victories on tour, or being ranked number one in the world for 623 nonconsecutive weeks are all outstanding accomplishments, Tiger won’t be satisfied (if that’s even possible) until he passes Jack’s record. Since his one-legged heroics in a Monday playoff against Rocco Mediate at Torrey Pines in the 2008 U.S. Open, Woods has just one runner-up, the 2009 PGA Championship, where he finished three strokes back of Y.E. Yang.

Woods’ major challenge at the Masters will be accuracy with his driver. Ranked only 145th in driving accuracy, Woods will have to do a better job of keeping the ball in play. Working in his favor is the fact that the rough is not all that penalizing at Augusta and there are plenty of holes where three wood is sufficient off the tee.

Putting, always a key to victory at the Masters, is the one area that Woods has excelled at lately. Since his impromptu lesson with Steve Stricker, Tiger has killed it on the greens. He’s No. 1 in Strokes Gained – Putting, the most significant of putting stats. He’s also made 16

of 37 putts from 10 to 15 feet. And most important, he seems to believe he can make every putt.

As for the competition, Rory McIrory finished runner up at last week’s Valero Texas Open. It’s the first sign of life for the former number one since he started breaking in his new set of Nike sticks. Phil Mickelson, the owner of three green jackets, has struggled of late, missing the cut at Bay Hill and finishing 16th two weeks ago at the Houston Open. And let’s not count out last year’s champ, Bubba Watson, and young hopefuls Justin Rose, Dustin Johnson and Keegan Bradley.

There is no question Woods is playing the best golf he’s played in five years and should be favored to win. He’s healthy and his recently announced relationship with Lindsey Vonn should add some stability to his life. Nike tells us Tiger is back. His fans, the media and television executives desperately want him back. But ultimately it’s a victory at a Major that will allow Woods to look in the mirror and proclaim his return.

Is this his week? His chances are as good as they’ve been in years.
