–A Speech by President Barack Obama

My fellow Americans, since my first day in public office I have done everything in my power to ensure the safety of all of the men and women in our armed forces.

Realizing that this nation is weary of war, I have resisted the concept of putting “boots on the ground” in any part of the world.

SAVING THE COUNTRY AND HIS PRESIDENCY

Instead I have positioned our nation to work closely with the United Nations and our allies and I have worked tirelessly to solve all issues in a peaceful, diplomatic matter.

Sadly, today I stand here before you and admit that I must, at this time, abandon this policy.

While I am speaking to you

tonight a large force of American troops, under the command of newly reappointed General David H. Petraeus, is being deployed back into Iraq.

They are landing along with coalition troops from Britain, Australia, France and Germany, and with support from nine other nations, including Jordan, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.

Let me state to the American people, whom I know are tired of war: This is not another attempt at nation building or a search for weapons of mass destruction.

It is not an attempt to bolster or support or favor either Sunni or Shiite Muslims in their centuries-old religious war with each other.

I am proposing what should amount to be a 30- to 60-day engagement with one mission – to kill each and every ISIS monster in Iraq.

We will outnumber them.We shall use every weapon in the

massive arsenal at our disposal to destroy them.

While air power can, in the long run, be effective against ISIS, our ability to swiftly destroy them in Iraq requires more than air power. In the history of war, nothing works faster and is more effective than a strong presence on the ground.

We will of course follow all the rules of the Geneva Convention, but we must never forget that in ISIS, we are dealing with a vicious enemy who has beheaded and crucified innocent men, women and children. And so we would prefer the option of taking no ISIS prisoners.

Their brutality and barbarism must be stopped cold and we cannot afford to have a “wait and see” attitude about the danger they represent to the free world. It won’t go away.

We can either destroy them now or wait and be forced to deal with them in our streets and in our homes. There is no chance for peaceful negotiation.

I have chosen to act now.Let me repeat: This ground

engagement will just be in Iraq. We will never use ground troops in Syria.

In Syria we will bomb ISIS positions 24 hours a day. We will use drones to rain death down on ISIS leaders.

We will use air power in any country that ISIS chooses to occupy.

On the home front I am calling on Congress to join me in declaring war on ISIS and any Muslim who preaches jihad anywhere in the world.

This will make those Americans who have left the United States to join ISIS guilty of treason. If they attempt to come back to the United States they should be prosecuted.

And, as those who have turned against this country during wartime in the past, they will be executed for crimes against the United States.

For those Muslims who preach jihad here in the United States, I am recommending those who are not citizens of this country be deported immediately. Those American Muslims who threaten to destroy their native country should be prosecuted for sedition according to the Espionage Act of 1917, which made it a crime to attempt to aid a nation at war with the U.S.

This is a sad moment for me. I would have preferred to finish out my term in office in peace. But when I think of our children and see the reign of terror these ISIS animals have brought to Iraq and Syria, I know they must be stopped now. And that’s what I will do.

Good Bless America.

Peter Kirsch is optimistic. East Hampton Town’s legal expert, on the payroll for almost 10 years through three administrations, believes a recent FAA opinion will allow the town to regulate traffic at its controversial airport.

A partner in the Washington, D.C.–based firm Kaplan, Kirsch & Rockwell, Kirsch was in East Hampton last week to meet with town officials and the media.

In an interview with The Independent, Kirsch spoke of recent changes to policy and law that “make the playing field very different.”

For years prevailing wisdom has held that, as long as a municipality took money from the Federal Aviation Administration, the feds – and only the feds — had a say about traffic at the airport. Localities couldn’t impose restrictions on traffic or types of aircraft that use the facility as long as they were “grant obligated.” The FAA had to approve any proposed restrictions, and the town couldn’t take control of its own facility until those grant assurances ran out.

Four assurances expire at the end of this year, while 35 remain in place until 2021.

In March of 2012, in response to questions asked by Congressman Tim Bishop on behalf of the Quiet Skies Coalition, the FAA issued an opinion, stating its approval is not required, so long as an airport is not “grant obligated.”

According to Kirsch, after December of this year, FAA approval will not be necessary for the town to impose restrictions at the airport. The regulations could take the form of curfews, as well as restrictions on the volume and type of aircraft that lands, plus the time of day when restrictions apply. Kirsch predicted East Hampton’s regulations will most likely pertain to time of day and type of aircraft.

But the new rules won’ t necessarily be sweeping and all-inclusive. “A nuanced problem requires a nuanced solution,” Kirsch emphasized. The problem must be carefully defined through the use of specific data, he explained.

And Eas t Hampton ’ s go t “spectacular” data, the attorney believes. Although questions about mitigating noise, particularly that from ever-increasing helicopter traffic, at the airport have not changed on a gross level during the last decade, Kirsch said what has changed is the “level

During a forum on airport issues hosted by the town board last month airport liaison Councilwoman Kathee Burke-Gonzalez repeatedly stated officials would strive to craft “legally defensible” solutions to the quality of life threat the surge in traffic has meant. Kirsch outlined

Get Yer Motor Runnin’Time to haul out your hog and join the Red Knights Chapter 25 for the fourth annual motorcycle ride to

benefit the Donald T. Sharkey Memorial Community Fund. Held Sunday, the ride starts at the Bridgehampton Fire Department on School Street with registration at

9:30 AM. Goldberg’s will provide the coffee and bagels.Beginning at 11, the ride travels along Montauk Highway to Montauk Point, then back to Amagansett for

culminating activities at the Stephen Talkhouse on Main Street at 12:30 PM, including the dedication of a memorial tree for Sharkey.

Organizers are asking for a donation of $30 per bike. Food, drinks, and a 50/50 raffle are promised. DTSMCF was founded in memory of “the original Mr. Amagansett,” after Sharkey’s death in 2008. All

donations and contributions are used to support those in need in the community as well as to support efforts to which Sharkey volunteered his own time. These included the East End Soldier Ride (which later became a part of the Wounded Warrior Project), the Amagansett, East Hampton, Springs, Montauk, Sag Harbor, and Bridgehampton Fire Departments, East Hampton Boy Scout Troop #298, and Jordan’s Honor Fund.

Each year, the Fund awards a scholarship of $2500 to a student committed to furthering their education who has demonstrated the ability and desire to improve the community.

The fund is supported by individual donations, as well as the annual motorcycle ride and the Mr. Amagansett Pageant.

Last month Southampton Boy Scout Troop 58 finished the Paws Walk for the Southampton Animal Shelter Foundation.

A $250 grant was awarded in May 2014 to SASF by the Southampton Town Youth Services Bureau in order to build a solid pathway for the kennel staff, volunteers, and especially the dogs to walk to and from the play yards.

On construction day, the scouts arrived in full force. They sanded the area and laid out where the stones would be placed guided by Troop Leader, Kevin Maginsky. After several hours, they took a pizza and puppy break. Around mid afternoon, they had completed the walk.

It was probably one of the most oft-repeated statements of the summer. At cocktail parties and galas, on the beach and at the grocery store and farmstands, over and over locals and seasoned visitors to East Hampton alike spoke of the traffic, offering an exasperated, ‘I’ve never seen it so bad.’

Statistics compiled by the East Hampton Town Police support the sense of chart-topping crowds on the roads, the beaches, and just about everywhere. According to EHTPD Chief Michael Sarlo overall calls for service during the period of time from Memorial Day to Labor Day surged from 8060 last year to 8639 this year. Year to date figures demonstrated a smaller spike, from 13,230 in ’13 to 13,755 this year.

Aided cases were up, from 969 last summer to 1086 this summer, with 1710 and 1759 the YTD figures. Accidents increased by just 29 from last summer to this, with police responding to 403 MVAs in 2013 and 432 this summer; 639 was the total number of car accidents requiring a police response last year during the first two thirds of the year, with this year’s figure adding up to 657.

Overall, the chief said, the year to date figures showed a gradual increase commensurate with yearly averages, while the seasonal stats ballooned. “It was an extremely busy summer. Our guys worked very hard to keep the peace, especially in Montauk and Amagansett,” the chief said.

He acknowledged arrests and ticket numbers are actually down because of the high number of calls for service. It couldn’t help that the department is running with a smaller staff than it had in 2006. There are currently four or five officers on disability and they can’t be replaced until the state affirms their claims and they retire.

This year, Chief Sarlo took the helm of the marine patrol, which had been an independent department for a time. He praised the harbormasters for a very productive summer. They did a good job balancing the schedule to ensure coverage on the water and on the sand, and undertook a “phenomenal” number of shellfish license checks, the chief reported.

Last month a highly publicized alcohol ban went into effect at Indian Wells Beach in Amagansett. The chief deployed police there full time every Saturday and Sunday throughout August and said, “Complaints dropped way off.” Opponents of the ban worried

Stats Support Sense Of Busiest Summerthe problem of obstreperous intoxicated partiers would simply shift to another section of the shoreline. “That didn’t happen,” Chief Sarlo asserted. “There wasn’t one big party beach.”

But that doesn’t mean there weren’t parties and the beach fires that go with them. Fires were “rampant” on the beach, the chief said. His staff has been “tweaking the protocol” when it comes to monitoring parties and fires on the beach. Officers try to get names of

organizers when they come upon shoreline revelry. That way, if the sun rises on debris and litter left behind, summonses can be issued. “It’s improved the situation a little bit, that there’s someone accountable,” he said. Just last week, according to Chief Sarlo, a catering company was given three litter-related summonses when the beach was left a mess after a fete.

Because police don’t have the staff to earmark personnel to litter patrol, the chief believes

community cooperation will be key. With more public service announcements, he said, “We’ll get the word out.”

T h i s w e e k , C h i e f S a r l o said he plans to pull together representatives from the parks and recreation department, town lifeguards, code enforcement and the PD to have a year-end review with town Supervisor Larry Cantwell. The team will mull the events of the season and strategize methods for improving service.

New Westhampton Beach Mayor Maria Moore said she will likely discuss having Southampton Town take over policing duties for her tiny village when she meets with Southampton Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst this week.

The scandal steeped police department commands almost $2.3 million of the village’s budget. The recently retired police chief, Ray Dean – who quit, not coincidentally the week Moore was elected – recently shocked the village by drawing a $403,000 check for unused sick and retirement pay, which outraged some villagers.

Moore said she and the village board members maintain an open mind about the possibility of eliminating the local police and paying Southampton Town for policing services. “We haven’t heard a proposal but there is some level of interest,” Moore said. “I’d like to hear what they are proposing.”

Westhampton Beach bloggers had a field day when Moore requested her full salary of $25,124 for her position. Moore defeated longtime Mayor Conrad Teller last spring – he had voluntarily cut his salary in half. Her supporters felt it

particularly ironic in light of Dean’s massive goodbye kiss.

“They keep saying I doubled my salary, but I felt it was fair to restore it to where it’s always been,” she said.

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

Dean resigned immediately after Teller’s defeat – and before a new village board led by Moore could address a lavish goodbye kiss for the chief, whose tenure was marred by several scandals.

By Emily ToyProperties set for addition to the

Town of Southampton’s Community Preservation Project Plan, thanks to the Community Preservation Fund, continue to grow in number. The town board was expected to authorize the acquisition of three properties at last night’s town board meeting, giving the real estate and easement category of town business a big boost.

As The Independent went to press, two properties, one to be purchased by the town in Shinnecock Hills, the other to be donated by an individual in North Sea, were on tap for discussion at public hearings.

The town is expected to acquire about 1.5 acres of vacant land owned by Parrish Pond Associates LLC, which has expressed an interest in selling the property for $900,000. Southampton Town would foot the bill, plus the closing expenses, including an accurate survey, title, insurance and other related adjustments using CPF money.

Located on Parrish Pond Court West, the property is designated in the Shinnecock Hills Greenway area of the town’s CPPP. Shinnecock Hills Greenway is one of the last vestiges of the natural Shinnecock landscape. According to a resolution original ly presented at last Thursday morning’s work session at Southampton Town Hall describing the property’s designation, “The corridor has significance not only as open space and a passive greenway, but also as a future critical linkage for the Paumanok Path.”

According to town officials, attractions of said property also include a medley of indigenous plants and wildflowers.

The second property that was expected to warrant discussion at a public hearing last night is located on Noyac Road in North Sea. The town was slated to accept the donation of about 0.05 acres from Joseph Gazza.

The property to be donated by Gazza falls under the Great Hill Target area designation of the CPPP. “The Great Hill area is one of the largest contiguous blocks of Pine Barrens forest remaining east of the Shinnecock Canal,” according to the resolution describing the property acquisition.

Last night the town board also held a public hearing on the purchase of land owned by Sag Harbor Turnpike Holdings LLC in Bridgehampton. About 3.9 acres

CPPP Growing Thanks To CPFof vacant land is set to be sold at $595,000, plus a few additional expenses, and is designated in the Great Swamp Target Preservation Area.

Centered on the Bridgehampton moraine, the Great Swamp contains what is perhaps, according to the town, “one of the finest collections of inland freshwater wetlands remaining east of the Shinnecock Canal.”

Next month, on October 14 at 1 PM, the town board will hold

three more public hearings on the acquisition of three more local properties considered for addition to the CPPP.

Those lands total to about six acres and are located in East Quogue, Hampton Bays, and North Sea.

I don’t want to say Karen was proud of herself, but she tweeted and texted everyone she knew.

That wasn’t enough. Karen didn’t have to just brag about the fact that after 18 years of marriage she finally cooked something edible – she insisted on demonstrating it. The problem was whenever you put Karen in proximity to a stove she endangers not only herself, but the entire neighborhood and most important, me.

Sunday morning came early, as mornings are apt to do. It was the beginning of the NFL season, so there was much to be done before kickoff: I had to set the lineups for all my Fantasy teams: The Purple Stream Of Courage: check. Rick’s Golden Rash: check. Multiple Scorgasms: Ok. Wedgie Nation: done.

First there was the matter of breakfast. I have my rituals: one is what I eat on Game Day. Poached eggs on buttered rye toast, two sausage links, extra-crispy home

The Year Of The Poached Eggfries, and the New York Post for reading. I make Karen anything she wants for Sunday breakfast and in return I get to watch the games in peace.

She decided as the woman of the house she should cook me Sunday breakfast.

I don’t want to say the learning curve was slow but she started trying to poach an egg in 1997. Since then she has poached her face, ruined three microwaves, and poured an egg into the back of an electric coffee maker, convinced a poached egg would come out the other side. She has put things on my plate no living creature would attempt to ingest, yet I gamely tried, wanting so much to please her.

“Guess what it is?” she would say hopefully as I stared at the matter on my plate.

“Mung from a syphilitic camel?”“Guess again.”“Discharge from an infected

liver?”“No, silly, it’s a poached egg! I put it in my sock when she

wasn’t looking.But the other day, so help

me this is true – two perfectly poached eggs appeared on my plate. Apparently she had watched a video and learned the secret: add salt and a little vinegar to boiling water, place two eggs in a cup, and then slide the eggs into the water, making sure the cup breaks the surface of the water while doing so. Reduce the heat and time the process: three minutes for runny, four for regular, and five for well done.

She even bought an electric egg timer, which we desperately needed even though there is a clock on the stove.

Sunday four people were at the house, and the thought of making eight poached eggs unfortunately may have flustered her.

As I put the finishing touches on the sausage and home fries and set the table and poured the juice and put out the condiments Karen struggled with the complexities of the egg timer, to wit how to time eight eggs at once since we all liked them a little differently.

Meanwhile time was ticking away. The pregame football shows were in full swing, I needed to check the injury reports, and there were eight pieces of rye bread in the oven.

I, of course, having correctly figured out the point spreads for all 16 NFL games, rattled off the correct mathematical procedure: set the timer to five minutes and drop two eggs in the water: when

it hits four minutes, drop four more: when it hits three minutes, drop two more. Then take out the first two at the two-minute mark and they will be a little runny. Take four more out with one minute left and they will be normal, and the two remaining ones will be well done.

“How do I know which two were the first two I dropped in?” She asked meekly after three minutes had passed. It was then I realized my crucial mistake, but never let on. Instead, I do what I always do when she catches me doing something stupid: I attacked.

“Didn’t you put our names on the yolks with a magic marker?” I shouted in disbelief.

She turned red. “No . . . I . . . I . . .”“Karen! KAREN! Do you want to

eat overcooked eggs on Game Day? Do you? Do you?”

Then, all at once, we smelled smoke. The toast had literally caught fire. The bird was squawking. The dog was barking hysterically. “I’ll get the toast,” Karen volunteered, trying to lift the charred toast out of the oven with a wooden spoon.

Then the eggs boiled over, sending poached eggs in various states of doneness all over the stove, counter, and floor.

By then the sausage looked like licorice.

I will say this for Karen’s breakfast: the juice sure was good, probably because our throats were so parched from putting out the fire. Yes, the wooden spoon caught fire and when Karen put it down on the dishtowel it went up in flames.

Next Sunday I’m having Fruit Loops.

Independent VOICES

EDITORIAL


The powers that be continue to pad their pockets, and those in charge of curtailing them continue to pretend otherwise.

Two recent news items once again confirm that the workingman continues to get screwed despite claims to the contrary.

New York State regulators recently announced that health insurance rates rose by an average of 6.7 percent. While still outlandish, the rates almost always go up, so the news comes with a certain amount of relief. (Remember when Obamacare proponents were telling us how the rates would shrink?)

Benjamin Lawsky, a state official, crowed about the rates, patting himself on the back for keeping the rates in check. What’s wrong with this picture? It’s a farce.

As a byproduct of Obamacare a new and ugly demon has raised its head, and it lives in every one of the 40-plus plans we examined. It’s called “Out of Pocket” Expenses.

It used to be that a good health insurance plan basically covered every health-related cost after relatively painless co-pays.

Let’s assume for our purposes the average family plan cost $1000 per month last year and rose to $1067 this year. Not so bad, right?

Wrong. What is being conveniently overlooked is that this year, under Obamacare, that same plan mandates a “limit” of $6000 per year of out of pocket medical expenses. That means that the couple has to pay up to that amount before the insurance kicks in.

The best group plan we were offered set out of pocket expenses at $2000 annually. The worst was $12,000. There wasn’t a single plan

Fudging The Numbersthat covered 100 percent of medical expenses, and that’s the curse of Obamacare.

By the way, even if only one person on the family plan requires medical care the out of pocket limit stays the same. So if either mom or dad break a leg skiing or slips on the ice or requires some special treatment for one ailment or another he or she will spend $6000, or whatever the OOPE is.

Kudos to the New York Health Plan Association for calling state officials out. It blasted Lawsky and correctly pointed out his take on the state of medical insurance was “irresponsible” and “do not reflect actuarial reality.”

Add that $6000 to our monthly premium and it soars to $1567, a whopping 56.7 percent increase in one year. Thank you, President Obama.

In another news item, overtime monies paid to Suffolk County cops have increased by 20 percent. Once again county officials crowed about the hard line they took in negotiations and how the PBA union was made to settle for wages more in line with today’s economic realities. Guess what? Cops on Long Island -- local cops included -- are among the highest paid in the nation, and earn roughly double what a New York City police officer does.

When a municipality negotiates a contract with a union, the wages agrees upon should be the wages paid. Allowing excess overtime is often a way for politicians to appease voters and curry favor with union leaders.

Enhanced Our LivesDear Rick,

Fabulous picture on your front page last week, well done! While it was sad, we all lost a good friend; there he was on the other side of the camera for a change, smiling as usual. Kitty’s story to follow was sweet and positive and heartfelt. Thank you.

It was nice to see the picture on the newsstand on Wednesday, though we were sad about our friend Carl not being here anymore. He was smiling like he always did every time we saw him. And with his kids, Chase and Courtney, whom he loved dearly.

What can I say that hasn’t been already said about Carl Darenberg? Not much. Except he enhanced our lives by his great embrace of life. He was an angel among

us, in a sense, one that lived big and regretted little, hurt no one, and was sensitive and generous and humble.

His pictures told a story, whether you liked being snapped or not! He thought us all photo ready. He saw us through his own lens. We were all beautiful to him. That you do not find every day, someone always ready with a sincere compliment. Often when you could most use one. And for that we will have a legacy to remember him. All the fun times. And to remind ourselves of the importance of not just earning a living but living and loving our life.

So thanks. And to Carl, we just won’t ever forget you!

Cover Up?Dear Mr. Murphy,

To understand why a newspaper like

The New York Post might publish a less than favorable article about my neighbors whereas The Southampton Press covers up conduct, it might help to investigate what may appear to be a minor issue, an unsafe street.

A series of accidents occurred at the location of one street, yet two nearby streets have remained safe.

The accident-prone street was created by Southampton’s Planning Board under then-chairman Democrat Steve Kenny such that it meanders past two acres of town-owned land up a hill to a horse stable. The dangerous street is easily remedied in ways that would benefit different women, which may explain why it has never been fixed.

Through the use of a land swap with the town, the street could have been safely placed in front of the entrance to the stable that was, until recently, co-owned

by an equestrienne. Not only would the swap have made

the street safer, the new location would have made the street less expensive for the equestrienne to maintain and would have enabled her to create a paddock on the main road which would have been a visually-appealing advertisement for her business.

Another alternative would also have benefited the equestrienne. This solution involves a very wealthy Wall Street investor who I believe was the majority owner in the farm and who owns millions of dollars of other real estate in Southampton.

Apart from the tax breaks that he received from his agricultural investment, this wealthy Wall Streeter (who contributed the maximum amount to Southampton

Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst’s re-election campaign) could have incorporated my property into his farm in a way that would have been tax advantageous and would have allowed his co-owner, the equestrienne, to use my farmhouse (located on the main road) for a residence/business office with a paddock. My driveway could then have been safely converted to a street for farm use.

A third solution could help young mothers in need of housing. Local civic association members along with The Southampton Press have argued in The Press that preserving old farmhouses is a waste of effort. Therefore incentive exists to relocate my farmhouse and replace it with suburban-style housing of the kind supported by my Democratic neighbors, The Southampton Press, local civic associations, and the wealthy Wall Street investor.

More to the point, building suburban-style housing would provide another opportunity to make the dangerous street safe.

Understanding why the street remains unsafe will provide insight into the hypocritical value system of Timothy Bishop’s supporters, and, I might add, The Southampton Press.

THE RAYNORS

A Brain?To the Editor,

I see in the Indy 9/3 Letters that Mr. Moskowitz is at it again, feeding his insatiable lust for war. Donald A. Mars-kowitz would be more appropriate commemorating the Roman God of War. What is it about this simplistic knee jerk approach by some responding to any conflict, calling for our country to immediately initiate a war rather than intelligently analyzing all options and approaches and choosing the best suited for each situation.

Thank goodness we have as President a brain rather than just brawn or we would once again, several times have initiated a faux war such as Iraq. How quickly some forget.

The name Representative Louie Gohmert of Texas was mentioned in the Independent recently. He also is always ready to precipitate a war. Listening to him whenever his lips are moving, one

might call him Representative Dumb Ares, evoking the Greek God of war. His knee is not the only jerk embodied.

Obama has now gotten 10 of our key NATO allies to join us in taking on the ISIS threat. Our allies are in far greater threat than are we and recognize it. More will be joining the effort. It’s called a coalition and it is the way to fight a common enemy and win.

Ignore HimDear Mr. Murphy,

I really loved reading your recent “Rick’s Space” column. You said it all about Mr. Baldwin. I recently bumped into him at the East Hampton Indoor/Outdoor Tennis Club during the Hamptons Pro-Am Celebrities tennis fundraising event for the USTA Foundation for youth tennis. He was seated courtside on Court 1.

I happened to be assigned to that court


What was the first sport you participated in when you weregrowing up?

Maria AguilarTrack and field. I ran track from the seventhgrade until I was in high school. I started it assomething to do after school but I quit in myjunior year. The competition just got too tough.And I wasn’t really serious about it. I was justdoing it for the fun of it.

Peter PfefferI’ve been swimming since I was six months old.I grew up in Coney Island in Brooklyn, so I wasborn at the beach. My parents put me in thewater early. We had a cabana at a beach clubnear the Steeplechase until I was 16. I stillswim regularly all year round.

Bob SheldonI grew up in Bensonhurst, Brooklyn so my first“sports” were street games like stickball,marbles, Ringoleevio and flipping cards. Thenmy family moved to Westchester where yourode bikes and explored the woods. Then, inhigh school, I was on the swim team.

Cathy McGowanI grew up on Fire Island and swam since I wasa toddler. We learned to swim in the bay beachbefore we were allowed to swim in the ocean. Idid some competitive swimming in Roslyn butthere wasn't much opportunity for girls incompetitive sports then.

while playing doubles with Patrick McEnroe. I wanted to exchange pleasantries but he just glanced away when I said a quiet “hello.”

When I finished playing and went home, I told my husband that Mr. Baldwin did not respond to my greeting. My husband defended him by saying that Mr. Baldwin had too much on his plate! Subconsciously, he knows my family because he frequently has acknowledged both my husband George and my son James with a smile at Church.

In any case, the bright side was I got the opportunity to play with my tennis idol, Chris Evert, and with other tennis greats such as Tom Gullikson, Jose Higueras, and Patrick McEnroe.

My take on this episode is to ignore and leave Alec Baldwin alone when you spot him in public, especially when he is spending time with his family.

He Owns ItDear Rick,

The House has passed 352 bills, with

98 percent being bi-partisan. The hold up is Harry Reid, the do-nothing Senator, the Obama yes man. When Obama was first inaugurated he had control of the House and the Senate, his accomplishments were a big fat zero. Didn’t want to own anything, except Obamacare, and this mess he really owns.

This President can’t make a single decision and puts blame on everyone else. He lies to the American public, his newest one “it wasn’t my decision to pull out of Iraq, I didn’t make this call.” Question: WHO DID?

With the upcoming elections, citizens of America please get out there and vote, rid the house and senate of the do-nothings. These people should not receive any salary/and or/ pension for the past eight years. They are useless.

As far as a woman president, God help the country if the lying, what difference does it make female gets in. Remember when she moved to New York, ran for senator and promised the people, “I will do the whole term I will not abandon you.” A few months later she started her campaign to run for President. So much for, “I will not abandon you.” There are plenty more incidents with Mrs. Clinton but not enough paper.

The group is known for their landscape and seascape works, which document the beauty and personality of the North Fork.

This exhibit of original paintings will be on display from Sunday through September 28 in the gallery, which is located at 54127 Main Road. The opening reception – which is open to the public – will take place from 5:30 to 7:30 PM on September 19.

The group includes well-known local artists, including Adelaide Amend, B. L . Moyle, Dolores Castrucci, Ann McCaughey, Fran Reichert, and Laurie Ullmann.

History of Plum IslandThe Society announced the

complete history of controversial Plum Island, New York, has now been published for the first time. The Society published A World

Traveler WatchmanFTruth without fear since 1826

North Fork News www.indyeastend.com

unto Itself: The Remarkable History of plum Island, New york, which encompasses 400 years of the island’s history with new research and historic photographs.

Few publicly owned islands are as little known or as misunderstood as Plum Island, located off the tip of Long Island’s North Fork. The highly secure Plum Island Animal Disease Center has operated there, not without controversy, since the 1950s, but few who were not employees have been able to go ashore.

Today, the federal government has plans to move the animal disease laboratory to Kansas and sell the island. Environmentalists have studied and reported on the rich ecology of the Plum Island, but, until now, the island’s fascinating role in American history has been undocumented.

The book is currently available through the Society’s museum gift shop at a cost of $40 for the hardcover edition or $30 for the softcover.

For more information contact the Southold Historical Society at 631-765-5500.

steps necessary to crafting such solutions.

Data that comprehensively describes problems must support solutions – “Intuition isn’t good enough,” said Kirsch. If limiting traffic is a goal, statistics must show the time of day, day of the week, and time of year traffic is the most problematic, as well as which type of craft is deemed most intrusive. For example, regulations banning helicopters on Wednesday afternoons in February would

unlikely be defensible without data proving a need.

In East Hampton, airport officials and individual citizens have been collecting data “for years,” Kirsch noted. Henry Young from the firm Young Environmental Sciences has also worked for the town as an expert consultant for years. He’s currently analyzing the most recent noise data. The results from surveys distributed during the forum last month will be incorporated into the town’s analyses.

Burke-Gonzalez reported Young plans to present his noise analysis to the town board during the October 21 work session. Kirsch pointed

out that a “transparent process,” ensuring community members are given the opportunity to review and provide feedback must be undertaken as the town works towards solutions.

Once the analysis is complete, and draft restrictions crafted, town officials must next “formally tell people and seek feedback,” Kirsch said.

The a t torney sa id he i s “absolutely optimistic” that the town will be able to impose some restrictions at the airport come January. However, he added, “I’d be lying if I said there weren’t hurdles.”

“There are people committed to making us fail,” Kirsch said, stopping short of naming names. He affirmed that because of the movers and shakers who use the airport and the national attention The Hamptons receive as the playground to the rich and famous in general, East Hampton garners more attention than any comparable city elsewhere “and certainly its airport does as well . . . It’s not some sleepy little airport in Arkansas.”

In other airport-related news this week, Jim Brundige has announced plans to retire after a decade as airport manager. Jemille Charlton, 33, who is currently employed at the facility as an airport attendant, has been tapped as Brundige’s successor.

“Jemille is a young man with a solid background in aviation, impeccable credentials and deep roots in our community,” Burke-Gonzalez said in a statement announcing the news. “As a 15-year member of the Air National Guard, we are proud of his service to our country and I look forward to partnering with him as we develop a plan that addresses the airport’s finances, infrastructure, capital and noise issues.”

Charlton’s position will take effect immediately. Brundige will stay on until October 17 to help with the transition.

Toby had ahome for over a year andwas doing great, but was re-turned after new dogs werebrought into the home andhe started to have behaviorissues- hissing and urinatingout of his litter box. Theissue was thought to be be-havioral due to the new pup-pies stressing him out sounfortunately it wasn’t prop-erly investigated for a med-ical problem. What wequickly found when we tookToby back was that he had avery painful condition thatcould have killed him had itcontinued. Toby had manycrystals in his urine. Withina few days of his return hecould hardly urinate, criedwhen he peed, and hestarted passing blood. Hewas getting blocked. We im-mediately took him to thevet, and he was catheterizedand given fluids to flush himout. He was put on a urinarytract food and is now doinggreat! His behavior is playfuland friendly as he is feelingso much better! He doesn’tmind dogs if they are quietand calm. As you can seehere. He would prefer a calmhousehold. Other cats ok. Heis very affectionate once heknows you. He does need tostay on special food for awhile and maybe forever sothis doesn't recur. Adopteror foster needed! Call 631-533-2PET (2738) for moreinfo!

supposedly accumulated over the course of his 15 years on the job, though one critic lamented that Dean was frequently nowhere to be found. Dean, 53, has an annual pension of $142,000 a year, thanks to a contract that totaled over $226,000 in his last year.

A series of incidents marred Dean’s tenure on the job and cast a pall over the effectiveness of the department going forward. In 2012 an officer with only 15 years on the job was allowed to resign with full benefits, effectively ending an investigation that followed a 2009 incident involving a missing handgun that triggered an investigation by the county.

Earlier this year an officer was suspended for the fourth time in the past eight years after being charged with stalking.

In 2010 it was suggested that village police targeted Southampton Town Supervisor Linda Kabot because she was at odds with the Southampton PBA – Dean worked for the Southampton Police prior to taking the Westhampton Beach job.

“People are talking about it,” Moore said of the possibility of doing away with the village police. But the village is also prepared to keep the status quo. “We are talking to several candidates” to replace Dean, Moore said.

“I can say things will be a lot different with the contract for a new chief,” Moore said. Things will function differently going forward.”

Any discussion about East End high school football begins and ends with the Riverhead Blue Waves.

Riverhead (10-2 last season) has captured two of the past four Suf-folk County Class II championships including last season, and Leif Shay’s charges seem capable of get-ting there again despite a bruising schedule. The quest begins Saturday at home with a 2 PM kickoff against West Islip.

The Waves are noted for produc-ing outstanding tailbacks and last year was no exception: Jeremiah Cheatom was having an all-star season as the locals churned into the county title game. Cheatom was suspended, but a teammate picked up the standard. Ryan Moore, a linebacker, took the ball and liter-ally ran with it. Moore gained 126 yards, Riverhead won the title, and a new star was born. Only a junior,

Blue Waves Look To RepeatMoore is expected to shoulder the load this season.

Westhampton, playing in Suffolk Class II, turned in a very respectable 4-4 mark last season and consider-ing the competition that was noth-ing to sneeze at – perennial county powerhouse Sayville, Rocky Point, Miller Place, and Huntington all field traditionally strong teams.

Westhampton made a strong opening statement, beating Harbor-fields 35-16 Friday night at home. Talk about efficiency — quarterback Henry Moreta made the most of his chances. He carried the ball five times, yet produced two touch-downs and gained 66 yards. Dylan Laube was the workhorse, racking up 73 yards on the ground including a 33-yard scoring sprint.

Ben Bruzga (eight tackles) and Jordan Laube (a sack and fumble recovery) keyed a punishing defense

as the Hurricanes opened up a 28-0 halftime bulge.

Most of the local schools com-pete in Class IV including Hampton Bays (2-6 last season), Greenport/Southold (6-3), Mercy (1-7), and Southampton (1-7). East Hampton, whose once proud program has fallen into disarray in recent years, opted out of varsity football this season.

The Hampton Bays Baymen won

their opener, shutting out Wyan-danch 25-0. Josue Monroy did it on the ground, churning for 102 yards and a score. Jordan Johnson and Al-den Muhs also found the endzone.

Westhampton gets Miller Place at home Friday night at 6 PM.

Greenport/Southold play Baby-lon at home – kickoff for that one is 7 PM. Port Jefferson comes to Hampton Bays for another 7 PM matchup.

On The Water

Shinnecock Bay/Inlet/OceanThe fluke bite continues to pro-

duce in the bay with plenty of shorts. The better fish have been making it to the box on the last of the incom-ing tides.

Have a few decent reports on fluke from the ocean this week. Most

Fluke, Porgies, Still Biting

of the fish came from the deeper water, 70 to 80 feet.

Some seabass have been out on the reef mixing with some fluke.

Triggers, porgies, fluke, bluefish and bass have all come out of the inlet this past week a good mixed bag. Clam chumming at the bridge is doing well for most with more keeper bass in the mix now. Good news if you’re a porgy fishermen, the porgies are at the bridge in good numbers. Bass chummers call them pests but could bode well for the bass in the area.

Peconic BayThe porgy action remains good if

you chum in the usual spots includ-ing Rogers’s Rock. Plenty of snap-pers in the local creeks and harbors.

Shore Bound/Surf/Bridge/Canal

Local ocean beaches are seeing a few keeper size bass taking arti-ficials in the early morning hours. Swimming plugs, diamond jigs and poppers have taken both bass and blues. The shad are along the

beaches as well. The canal, inlet and Ponquogue

Bridge have seen a mixed bag in-cluding snappers, fluke, porgies and bluefish. The inlet has seen a few bass along with the albies making their passes mostly out of reach of the jetty fisherman.

Broken PromisesLetter to the Editor,

In a recent article Newsday reported on the activities of a bipartisan Suffolk County Legislative Committee that is working to reduce the county “pipeline debt” (Newsday, 08-26-2014, Rick Brand). According to the article, the committee was launched “after the legislature approved a package of capital budget amendments that increase County Executive Steve Bellone’s proposed 2015 capital budget by $22.78 million and his three-year capital plan by $58 million. The aim was to offset those increases.”

The article goes on to state, “the largest capital projects that the committee recommended shelving was $19.5 million in the legacy environmental land acquisition program and $8.3 million in the multi-faceted land purchase program. Lawmakers noted the loss of the programs will be offset because the county recently agreed to fund more than $29 million in new land acquisitions to end a lawsuit with environmentalists.”

The only problem is . . . it isn’t true. The $29 million isn’t “new” funding. It is a repayment of the money that the Legislature previously misappropriated from the county’s drinking water protection program to balance previous budgets. The lawsuit was brought by environmental organizations to compel the county to pay the money back. The parties agreed

in July to settle the suit subject to the repayment of the misappropriated funds and a commitment to require a mandatory referendum for any future changes to the drinking water protection program, among other items.

So, now the same Legislature that agreed to return $29 million in drinking water protection funds that were raided to balance the budget is cutting $27.8 million in open space funds based on the logic that the money that they just agreed to pay back under the threat of litigation

is “new” money. To add insult to injury, it also appears

the county is delaying the introduction of a ballot initiative which would make future changes to the popular drinking water protection fund subject to voter approval.

Shell games and broken promises are perfect examples of why there is such pervasive distrust in government today and why our water quality continues to suffer.
