Mark Crandall wanted to go to France. Or Brazil. Or Japan. Part of the Rotary Club’s student exchange program at East Hampton High School, he was chosen to go to Zimbabwe.

And it changed the course of

his life. “Fate and destiny brought me,

it wasn’t on my scope to go,” he recalled this week.

Next year Hoops 4 Hope, the program inspired by Crandall’s teenage experiences on the Dark Continent, celebrates its 20th year.

“It was an amazing year,” Crandall said of his first time in Zimbabwe. He travelled the country, staying with host families, and playing basketball. In 1992, Crandall started a sports camp and envisioned going back to Africa and bringing the

benefits of sports to disadvantaged communities.

Within three years, he did.Crandall’s first effort involved

recycling. He spearheaded the collection of basketballs, sneakers,

the Red and White of MabvukuThe author, Sipho Dube, attended one of the first Hoops 4 Hope programs.It all started 17 years ago when Hoops 4 Hope made their first

kit donation in Zimbabwe to a kids community team in Mabvuku, Harare. I was 13 years old and I vividly remember the excitement of putting on a recycled but actual basketball uniform that matched with 11 of my teammates. We could not wait for match day to show off our new kits that were a blessing to the whole community and a substitution for our T-shirts.

Over the many years that have passed, so many great things have happened in our community through basketball. We have made it to the national league and had a handful of players selected to the national team.

Any great organization or team carries something special that identifies them as a unit, ours came in the white and red of the T-Birds. I realized how kids coming from different and diverse backgrounds all compete at the same level regardless of the different challenges they all face in life, wearing the same uniform put us all on the same level.

I don’t think Mark Crandall and Jeff Gamble had any idea that they were planting a seed that would have a ripple effect of hope and inspiration in the lives of many young people. That dose of hope in the form of basketball uniforms has kept many playing up to today and giving back to the new generation of basketball players.

As a basketball coach now I look at the faces of young kids when you hand them uniforms for a match and it takes me back to the day I put on my first basketball uniform.

The now old and torn T-Birds uniforms have faded away but time to time you’ll spot a kid at the basketball courts wearing the original red and white. Our community was fortunate to receive another set of red and white basketball uniforms from Saint James through Coach Ngoni Mkukula in 2009.

After so many years of playing and representing our community we fundraised and decided to have kits sewn especially for us and we took the designs from the Saint James and T-Birds uniforms. We also received uniforms from the Ross school in New York for our community youth team through H4H.

We hope that the spirit of sharing and UBUNTU will continue to be a part of H4H and be a ray of hope for so many kids all over Africa.

Maybe it was my birthday that did it.

Maybe it’s because I’m now officially old and decrepit, but lately I’m spending a lot of time thinking of the past and how much I would like to enjoy some of those sweet moments of my youth just one more time.

RaMBLingS oF an oLd ManI want to go back to the time

when one could taste food without thinking of fats, carbs, gluten and peanut allergies. A time when vegetarians were thought to be mentally ill and vegans did not exist.

I want to go back to the time when young men and young women had beautiful unmarked skin on their necks, arms, chests, backs and

ankles, and the only people who had tattoos were sailors and ex-convicts.

I want to go back to the time when family was family, before television changed all that. A time when people would sit around the table after dinner and talk. They talked because they genuinely liked each other. There was no television, no computers, no cell phones. Families only had each other and that was enough.

I want to go back to the time when the music of my life was “Earth Angel” by the Penguins, “Sincerely” by the Moonglows and the haunting voice of Johnny Ace singing “Pledging My Love.”

Johnny Ace was a great singer but he was also an idiot who accidently blew his brains out playing Russian roulette with a gun he was sure was unloaded.

My music was called rhythm and blues. This was “make-out” music that we all listened to, played on the radio by Alan “Moondog” Freed and Murray the K.

We listened in steamy cars on a lover’s lane called “Plum Beach” just off Brooklyn’s Belt Parkway. In the still of the night you would hear:

“Earth angel, earth angel Will you be mine? My darling dear Love you all the time.”

Along with the music, if you listened closely you would hear the sounds of bra snaps being unfastened by clumsy teenage hands.

I want to go back to the time when I could enjoy a thick creamy malted, and a chocolate egg cream, from Barney’s Candy Store on West 7th Street.

I want to taste a Mello-Roll, a chocolate sundae and a banana split from Hy’s Candy Store on Avenue U, and a lemon ice from the Spumoni Garden, which I would squeeze out of a tiny white paper cup. And yes, I also want to feel that dreaded pain behind my right eye again because I ingested too much delicious lemon ice, too fast.

I want to go back to the time when I would fall asleep to the sounds of the Sea Beach train pulling in and out of the last stop

before Coney Island.The Sea Beach was behind my

house and in the summer, when the express train roared its way to Coney Island, my entire house shook like it was going to fall apart.

I want to go back to the time when I would watch Joe DiMaggio drift back with the athleticism and grace of Nureyev and then reach up and pluck a fly ball out of the air as though it was the easiest thing in the world.

I want to go back to the time when sports filled every day of our lives. When Friday night was Fight Night from the old Madison Square Garden. And boxers with real boxer names like “Rocky” Graziano, “Two-Ton Tony” Galento, “Irish” Bob Murphy and “Tough Tony” Pellone were slugging it out.

New York was a boxing town, a horse racing town, a baseball town. It was a time when all we had was sports. Who was the best center fielder in New York? Mays? Mantle? Snider? It was a time when everyone loved Jackie Robinson in my old neighborhood – even the bigots called him “a credit to his race.” It was a time of Gil Hodges, Pee Wee Reese, Phil Rizzuto, Yogi Berra. It was a time when if you had a broomstick and a “spaldeen” you had a game.

I want to go back to the time when, as a 12-year-old, the world was safe enough so that my friends and I could go to a neighborhood movie theater like The Colony on 18th Avenue for a double feature with the Bowery Boys or Charlie Chan or Abbott and Costello, along with a Gene Autry or a Roy Rogers western, and a serial that ran every Saturday, and five – count them, five – cartoons, all for 25 cents.

A few years later older, but not much wiser, I would go to the Walker, the Kingsway or the Avalon and see great movies featuring actors and actresses who could really act: Cary Grant, Katharine Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Marlene Dietrich, Spencer Tracy. As someone once said, “They had faces then.”

. . . trying to make a year’s worth of income in 90 days. To help accommodate summer customers, a variety of Main Street, Montauk, establishments have added picnic tables outside their eateries. Some have had outdoor tables for years, while others put them up this summer.

No matter when the tables were placed, they’re prohibited under the East Hampton Town Code. Last week Director of Public Safety David Betts, Director of Code Enforcement Betsy Bambrick, and Chief Building Inspector Tom Preiato paid “a

It’s No Picnic . . . friendly visit,” in Bambrick’s words, to about a dozen businesses to remind them that it’s illegal to have seating in the town right-of-way.

Past administrations have attempted to address the issue of outdoor dining. Former Town Councilwoman Theresa Quigley floated the notion of allowing tables on sidewalks for a licensing fee. Before her, Councilwoman Julia Prince pursued an outdoor dining measure. Neither ever made it past the conceptual stage.

Bambrick deferred to Betts when it came to discussing the “visit.” He was reticent about which establishments may have code

violation citations in their future. Some have site plan approvals that allow tables and chairs outdoors, Betts said. He hasn’t yet analyzed which do and which do not. He did say staff will be back in Montauk this week to monitor compliance.

One business owner who declined to be identified for fear of repercussions complained, “They do

this in the middle of the summer? Cantwell is a lot more anti-business than I thought.”

The individual referenced East Hampton Town Supervisor Larry Cantwell. Betts said the visit was triggered by a number of complaints, some of which have even come from business owners.

Cantwell’s campaign last summer Continued on Page 42.

It pays to stay on Long Island, according to the folks at Suffolk County Community College. Two years ago, College President Dr. Shaun L. McKay conceived a scholarship program designed to keep talented and motivated students on the island attending area colleges. So far, it’s awarded scholarships totaling about $640,000 to 31 SCC students.

“The Stay on Long Island Initiative (SoLII) helps our graduates achieve their academic dreams by continuing their education at quality four-year colleges and universities right here in our region,” McKay said in a recent release.

SoLII provides full and partial-tuition scholarships to current Suffolk Community College students who graduate and transfer to participating four-year schools.

They include Adelphi University, Briarcliffe College, Dowling College, Farmingdale State College, Five Towns College, Hofstra University, LIU Post, LIU Riverhead, NYIT, St. John’s, St. Joseph’s and Stony Brook.

To find out more about the program, visit the sunysuffolk.edu website or call 631-851-6847.

In other Suffolk County Community College news, a contingent of SCCC culinary students traveled to Florence, Italy, this summer, honing their skills under the guidance of renowned Chef Andrea Trapani, executive chef and head of the culinary and baking department of Apicius International School of Hospitality.

Students spent their days in class and interning at a local restaurant. They visited Parma and Modena, the birthplaces of parmesean cheese and balsamic vinegar, and toured local production facilities to see how the two Italian kitchen staples are made.

Chased And TaseredEast Hampton Village Police had

all that they could handle Monday morning when they pulled over a motorist who was allegedly swerving on Montauk Highway. The driver did in fact pull over, police said, but he sprinted into the woods near Daniel’s Hole Road when the cops approached. They said they ran the man down and had to taser him.

Nevertheless, he “turned toward [one officer] in an aggressive manner” and that’s when the baton was employed. The officer struck his potential assailant several times on the legs. Daniel Cavan Rathgaber, police said, acknowledged he had been drinking though he refused to take a sobriety test. He was charged with Aggravated Unlicensed Operation First degree, DWI, resisting arrest as well as several violations. That haul was enough to land him a trip to the holding pen.

East And WestSouthampton Town Police said

they spotted a car headed west on Montauk Highway in the eastbound lane Sunday night at about 9:30. After pulling over the vehicle police said they ascertained the driver, Rudy Hernandaez-Punai to be

intoxicated. In fact, police said he had an open container of booze in the car. Hernandez-Punai was hit with a DWI charge as well as several other infractions and taken to the pokey to await arraignment.

What A PhonyThe country has done away with

draft cards, but youngsters looking to party in bars apparently can still get their hands on phony identification, at least this 17-year old from Brewster did. His mistake was showing a phony NYS license to an East Hampton Town cop last Wednesday in Montauk, That’s possession of a forged instrument, son.

Fatality In RiverheadA Riverhead woman was killed in a

one-car accident on July 29. Police said Saundra Highland, 76, was driving eastbound on Nugent Drive when she apparently lost control of her vehicle and struck a tree. Highland lived on Riverleigh Avenue. There was no one else in the car and Riverhead Police are investigating.

Howling At The MoonSouthold Town Police arrested

a woman Sunday night when she refused to stop shouting obscenities in a residential neighborhood. Police said Cindy Goehring, 49, was on Ludlum Place in Greenport and was asked numerous times to pipe down. She was charged with resisting arrest as well as disorderly conduct.

Don’t you think it’s time to ask

about Air Conditioning?

By Kitty Merrill

It was all over the news last week – just in time for summer driving season, gasoline prices dipped across Long Island and across the nation. Great news . . . unless you live in The Hamptons.

Here, prices have continued to remain high after a late spring spike sent them over $4 a gallon. In fact, $4 a gallon is bargain basement level locally. Assemblyman Fred

A Pain In The GasThiele, whose office has conducted surveys along Montauk Highway on the East End for the last two years, reported an average price of $4.44 for Amagansett and Montauk. The highest we’ve seen is $4.58, which has been the per gallon price at a station near Springs for most of the summer.

Last week, Thiele once again called upon the state senate leadership to enact recommendations by the

state attorney general outlawing the practice of zone pricing.

Area outlets claim they’re charged more for gasoline because it takes longer for deliveries to the East End. The assertion strains credulity when a survey by The Independent revealed a 30-cent per gallon differential between stations on Flanders Road and the closest one in Southampton Town. Considering delivery trucks can hold thousands

of gallons, it would have to cost hundreds of dollars extra to make the trip from Flanders to Hampton Bays.

Thiele has been pushing for the elimination of zone pricing for years now. This past June the state assembly passed his bill by a 130 – 5 margin. It’s now before the Senate Rules Committee. According to the assemblyman, the bill has support from local gasoline retailers, but is opposed by major oil companies.

In a release reporting the results of his latest gasoline price survey, Thiele said, “It is anticipated that the State Legislature will return to Albany later this year. For the consumers on the South Fork, Westchester, Rochester and other locations impacted by this unfair business practice, it is imperative that the State Senate permit a vote on this bill. The Senate leadership can prove whether they are on the side of consumers or in the pockets of Big Oil.” Local lawmaker Senator Ken LaValle is a sponsor of the Senate version of the bill.

While The Independent has seen per gallon prices as much as 40 cents cheaper at upisland locales such as Mastic, Thiele said Long Island prices are about 15 cents per gallon less than on the South Fork, and 21 cents less statewide.

“The average price for East Hampton and Southampton along Montauk Highway excluding Amagansett and Montauk is now $4.05. The average price for Amagansett and Montauk is $4.44. A gallon of gas on the North Fork is now about $3.80. The Long Island average is $3.90 and the State average is $3.84,” Thiele said, referencing data obtained on July 29.

His survey targets establishments on Montauk Highway from western Southampton to Montauk along Montauk Highway.

Thiele also provided price comparisons reflecting the per gallon cost on May 31 of this year to the cost last week.

Statewide the cost decreased by four cents; on the South Fork it increased by six. Even the per gallon cost in New York City decreased as the local cost increased.

Thiele also provided a comparison by station, reporting how much each one jacked the prices between the end of May and last week. The Empire Station in East Quogue offered the lowest increase, raising prices from $3.93 per gallon in May to $3.95 per gallon last week. Montauk Fuel had the dubious distinction of hiking already high prices even higher, surging from $4.46 per gallon in May to $4.69 per gallon in two months. Four stations – Gulf and Mobil in Amagansett and Citgo and Mobil in Montauk – increased their per gallon cost by 20 cents in two months.

Comprehensive Plan was passed in 2005. Since its passing the town has done a wonderful job preserving open space, protecting our historic buildings and upzoning many areas, except Springs. However, there has not been any planning for the future

Independent Voices

Business Needs Study - A Must NOW!needs of our residents over the next five, 10, 20 years; or a plan to attract the businesses that will be needed to serve these needs.

What can the community support and do we have the proper zoning to support these businesses?

The East Hampton Business Alliance has requested that a

Business Needs Study be completed; one is long overdue and the Comprehensive Plan calls for it. Goal Five in the Comprehensive Plan states the need for such a study, as well as hamlet studies, be completed, in order to properly plan for our future needs.

Why does the town continue

to avoid implementing such vital planning? The two recent highly publicized hearings on Formula Stores and Prohibiting Commercial Vehicle Parking in Residential Zones are perfect examples of the problems that arise when no plan exists.

To legislate without knowing the full impacts of a law; to legislate without a plan that resolves the issue is foolish and ignorant as it barely puts a Band-Aid on the problem, simply to have it erupt elsewhere down the road. Why does government think the only solution to solving a problem is more legislation? East Hampton needs a master plan for business.

The business community is comprised of residents of this town; many are direct descendants of our founding families. They are concerned about preserving the aesthetics and safety of our beautiful town just like anyone else. They are volunteer firemen and EMS; their children play with yours; the businesses are the ones who donate so generously to our many charitable needs and events.

So why are they treated as the bad guy? Businesses offer goods and services, and create needed jobs. Why are they labeled “greedy” because they want to cover expenses AND squeak out a living? How can one say they want to protect the Mom & Pop stores, yet go to Riverhead to do their shopping?

We wonder why town government (the village too), insist on having public hearings on major issues that impact the working population, in season? Hearings should be held in October or November when those impacted can participate.

Unless you have been a business owner, you have no idea of the hurdles and costs to do business in this town, and only three months to do it in! Isn’t it time this community rallied to help the business community, instead of it always being the other way around?

It’s time town government steps up to the plate and gives our residents and bucolic town a master plan for business we ALL are deserving of. Planning for the Business Community is investing in our future!

Margaret Turner is the Executive Director of the East Hampton Business Alliance.

Sag HarborFish Fry

The 29th annual Eastvi l le Community Fish Fry will be held Saturday, from 4 to 7 PM (rain or shine) at the Eastville Historical Society’s Heritage House at 139 Hampton Street. A long standing tradition in the village, this year’s event is being sponsored by AARP. Donations for the meals are $25 at the entrance (checks or cash only) and are discounted for AARP members. Takeout is available. For additional information call 631-725-4711.

Musket Fire And BellsThe Sag Harbor Community

Band is excited to announce a performance of Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture on Tuesday at 8 PM in front of the American Legion on Bay Street. Members of the 3rd New York Regiment, in revolutionary war apparel, will join in with musket fire, and members of local handbell choirs will add bells. Also on the program will be marches, songs, and other favorites. Admission is free, and the audience is encouraged to bring lawn chairs.

Tchaikovsky wrote the 1812 Overture to commemorate Russia’s defeat of Napoleon and included several specific musical elements to tell the story of that struggle: Russian hymns and folk tunes; La Marseillaise, the French national anthem; church bells; and canon. The piece has become a popular favorite.

Founded in 1957, the Sag Harbor Community Band performs concerts every Tuesday evening from July 4 through the end of August at the American Legion in Sag Harbor, among other musical appearances. The band also provides scholarships to local students studying music after high school.

Paddle For PinkMain Beach Surf and Sport

announced last week it will serve as Race Director for the third annual Hamptons Paddle for Pink on August 16 benefiting the Breast Cancer Research Foundation. The event will take place at Havens Beach in Sag Harbor.

“Paddle for Pink” offers an amazing race course, professional chip based timing, course set up and support provided by the East Hampton Volunteer Ocean Rescue squad, and race logistics and oversight by the Main Beach Surf and Sport SUP race team.

Co-hosted by prominent New

Yorkers Lisa and Richard Perry and full-time Hamptons residents Maria and Larry Baum, the evening will include a multi-skill level paddle boarding race and a benefit party at the residence of the Perrys. The event will bring together hundreds of competitive paddle boarders, spectators and guests to raise funds for breast cancer research.

All donations will provide critical funding for innovative clinical and translational research at leading medical centers worldwide, and

increasing public awareness about optimum breast health. Last year’s event, which drew such guests as Edie Falco, Matt Lauer, Martha Stewart, Aerin Lauder, William Lauder, and Donna Karan, raised over $1.2 million in funds that went directly toward the Foundation.

“We are honored to partner with ‘Paddle and Party for Pink’ to raise awareness and much-needed support for breast cancer research,” says Lars Svanberg, founder and president of Main Beach Surf and Sport, and MBX Sports. “The cause is very important to everyone on the East End, and this event brings together a great team of leaders,

volunteers and sponsors working together to help prevent and create a cure for this disease.”

The Tupper Boathouse is getting a lift. Last month Governor Andrew Cuomo announced that the New York State Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation for Hurricane Sandy Disaster Relief Assistance for Historic Properties has awarded the Town of Southampton a grant to raise the Tupper Boathouse at Conscience Point, a historic structure damaged in Hurricane Sandy in North Sea.

The grant is funded by the National Parks Service and will be administered by the New York State Historic Preservation Office in Partnership with the National Heritage Trust.

According to the press release

Uplifting News For Tupper Boathousefrom the governor’s office, the state will release $456,807 for the first phase of work that will include the structural design, regulatory permitting and preparation of bid documents to lift the Tupper Boathouse to FEMA flood standards, and stabilize the current structure following the elevation change.

The Tupper Boathouse i s associated with Long Island’s maritime history. The Colonial Revival style structure, built in 1929 by Frank E. Tupper for his son Edwin Odell Tupper, served as both a boat building/repair facility and a showroom from 1930 to 1959, and was constructed with an adjacent wing that served as the family

residence. The land on which the boathouse

is located was referred to as “the boat lot” on deeds from the 1750’s to the 1900’s. The area, at the North Sea Port, was the township’s earliest port and provided access to the Peconic Bay and its vast shellfish and fish stocks throughout the year.

The boathouse was damaged during Hurricane Sandy, when approximately 30 inches of water flooded the first floor, and the sheetrock wicked the water yet higher.

A committee of local concerned citizens and town officials has been meeting since last fall to reach a consensus on recommended future

uses of the building that maintain both public access and maritime education efforts.

The building is envisioned as an educational and interpretive faci l i ty that wil l honor the structure’s history and celebrate the area’s maritime heritage and environmental significance.

Councilwoman Bridget Fleming stated, “We are grateful to the State for recognizing the significance of this important historic structure, as the State helps to ensure our community’s coastal resilience into the future. We are also grateful to community members and members of the maritime industry for their commitment to honoring the importance of the structure and the site. We look forward to utilizing the funding, as we begin to embark on a secure future for the building that will honor its environmental and historic significance.”

Sally Spanburgh, Chair of the Town’s Landmarks and Historic District’s Board stated, “The LHDB is thrilled that the Town has been awarded this grant and looks forward to taking the next steps and working with the community to restore this significant North Sea boathouse.”

Ann Reisman, a North Sea neighbor who serves on the Town’s Sustainability Committee, the North Sea Citizens Advisory Committee and as a member of the citizens group that is assisting in developing the plan stated, “The committee members are excited by the potential this historic structure has to serve as a maritime educational center for the Town.” Christine Fetten, P.E., Town Director of Municipal Works, will serve as project manager.

Well, at least parts of it will be.After nearly a year of back and

forth between Southampton Village and property owners, the Pyrrhus Concer house, located at 51 Pond Lane, will be demolished with a replica to be rebuilt at another location.

Pyrrhus Concer, a former slave and ferry captain, was believed to have a home at the location in Southampton Village during the 1800s, according to local historians. Concer, a slave born in 1814 and freed in 1827, (when slavery formally ended in New York) was a whaler who later became a ferryboat captain in Southampton.

Concur also was part of a crew that saved stranded Japanese sailors, becoming one of the first African Americans to see then-restricted Japan, and live to tell the tale.

Robert Strada, a partner with the Amagansett-based Strada Baxter Design/Build, a firm specializing in historic restoration, said some of the beams in the home and parts of the frame, date back to the 1800s and provide evidentiary support about how the home was built.

Original beams and framing from the house will be preserved, after the nature of the house’s history was unveiled last year, Mayor Mark Epley assured. The Southampton Historical Musuem, according to Epley, will safely store anything removed from the house.

Originally, the property owners acquired the land and house for nearly $3 million last year and sued the village for $10 million this past spring after Southampton Village’s Board of Architectural Review and Historic Preservation denied the property owner’s application to demolish the house and rebuild a new two-story, single-family home.

Shortly after the board reached its decision this past spring, the village and owners reached a settlement that gave the village 60 days to remove any historical items from the home before the demolition. The homeowners agreed that anything found during the two-month excavation process will be set aside and donated to the village. A marker explaining the significance of the location will

Historical House Demolished, And Saved

be placed on the property as well, according to village officials.

This past March, Assemblyman Fred Thiele declared March 17 Pyrrhus Concer Day in New York State to celebrate the 200th anniversary of Concer’s birth.

Locals would assert Montauk’s got the most beautiful beaches, the best eateries, awesome shopping and tons of excellent activities. It’s also got the highest price-tag, according to a recent survey by NewYorkHotels.org.

The survey compared 20 of the state’s main tourist destinations and found, when it comes to the cost of lodgings, Montauk’s the most spendy.

Montauk Most Spendy, Survey Sez“An average nightly rate of $342

catapulted Montauk to the top of the rankings,” according to the website. East Hampton Village, with an average overnight rate of $332 came in second. Saratoga Springs ranked third with an average August overnight rate of $312 for the most affordable room. That’s right, those averages relate to the most affordable double room for a couple staying during the month

of August. Only hotels or bed and breakfasts near beaches or city centers that ranked at least three stars were included in the survey.

New York City itself came in in the number eight spot, with an average overnight price tag of $123 for the least expensive double room. The average price apparently doesn’t factor in such mind bogglingly high priced lodgings as the $40,000 hotel suite at the Ty Warner Penthouse at the Four Seasons Hotel or the $35,000 presidential suite at the St. Regis.

On the East End, Southampton ($295) ranked fourth, with Greenport

($264) taking the fifth spot on the list.

Want to get out of town without emptying your wallet down to that last CVS coupon? Watertown, located upstate about 70 miles north of Syracuse -- make that, WAY upstate – took the number 20 slot, with the average cost of an overnight stay at $92. Check out the Heart concert at their arena tonight.

Lake Placid, also way, way upstate in the Adirondack Mountains, took the penultimate spot on the list. A couple can get a room at the place that played host to the 1980 Winter Olympics for $102.

support The Hurricane Swim Team on August 17 at Gardiner’s Bay/Fresh Pond in Amagansett. The swim begins at 7 AM. Participants are asked to pledge between $30 and $50, depending on the route. Register at www.active.com or Google the event to get more information.

Does the federal quota system discriminate against New York’s largest commercial fishing fleet? And does the discrimination harm Suffolk County’s economy?

Those are questions for the Suffolk County Attorney to answer now that the legislature has asked him to act on behalf of Suffolk’s commercial fishermen and explore legal action against the federal government to correct inequitable fishing quotas.

Suffolk County has the largest commercial fishing fleet in New York State, South Fork Legislator Jay Schneiderman, who sponsored the measure, pointed out this week. “Current federally-imposed quotas allow neighboring states to take double the amount of fish per vessel than New York’s fishermen,” he observed. The quota system, said Schneiderman, is based on “a faulty and arbitrary methodology that punishes New York’s fishermen for the record keeping practices of a generation ago.”

Federal regulation of New York’s commercial fishing fleet began shortly after the Magnuson Stevens Act (MSA) was signed into law by Congress in 1976. The National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) is the lead agency in regulating federal fisheries.

The s t a t e - by - s t a t e quo ta regulations are prejudicial against New York fisherman because the regulations are based on a faulty data collection model, Schneiderman believes. The data collection method used in New York is called the “box method.” The other states used a method referred to as the “weigh out” system. The box method led to a major undercount of the actual fish landings in New York State and in some cases credited other states with fish actually caught by New York fisherman.

Basing the quota allocation on the box method’s historical data is a “discriminatory practice which,” according to Schneiderman, “has impacted the local economy placing our fisherman at a competitive disadvantage.”

“The s tate -by -s tate quota allocation system needs to be challenged and revisited so that NY fishermen can receive an equitable portion of the overall quota,” said Emerson Hasbrouck of Cornell University Cooperative Extension.

“The methodology used by NMFS to collect catch and landings data in NY during the baseline period was

Suffolk To Sue Feds Over Quotas?inadequate and thus prejudicial against NY fishermen. The NY fishing industry was discriminately treated in an unfair manner in the establishment of the state-by-state quota allocation.”

Legislator Schneiderman believes that since most of New York’s commercial fishing fleet is located in Suffolk County, the county may have a legal right to sue on behalf of the fishermen.

Commercial fishermen have long called on New York State to sue the National Marine Fisheries Service, but the state has thus far not taken legal action. In fact, last year, Governor Andrew

Cuomo visited Montauk to show support for equitable catch limits, particularly the limits for summer flounder. His message to the feds was succinct: fix the problem or find a lawyer.

Within about six months anglers applauded a revised catch limit for the summer flounder – one that matches that of surrounding state.

Still, other fisheries depict the inequity, not to mention harsh restrictions. Last month East Hampton Town Supervisor Larry Cantwell wrote the state Department of Environmental Conser va t ion on beha l f o f fishermen shocked by a sudden

change in the catch limits for scup. (The DEC is the agency charged with the enforcement of federal catch limits.)

Area fishermen were notified via postcard that catch limits for scup, which had been set at 800 pounds per day were abruptly decreased to 70 pounds. Cantwell and the town board insisted, in the letter, that the DEC lower the quota to no fewer than 210 pounds. “We understand you have a need to stay within the quotas imposed on the state by federal fisheries management agencies,” Cantwell wrote to DEC officials, “but we find this action unacceptable.”

Deer Lover, North Sea

Yeah, I’d say if we took out maybe 1000 drivers, the roads would be much safer.

Dear Rick,What’s going on around here?

Now they have armed guards at Southampton Town Board meetings? What, are they going to shoot anyone that disagrees with the board?

Board Watcher, Southampton

the Postman always deliversThey are going to enforce the “No Bare Feet” rule one way or the other. I’d prefer to be buried with my boots on, but that’s just me. BTW, I wouldn’t try bringing ice cream into town hall if I were you.

Rick,Did you know it’s illegal to

leave a dog alone in a car during the summer?

Meg Bryant, Sagaponack

Yes, we usually leave our infant daughter with the dog.

To the Editor,You should be ashamed

of yourself for allowing your columnists to use terms that are derogatory, like calling Kate Smith “fat.”

Jim Sprouler, Watermill

I told him to use “Oinker” instead but he didn’t listen.

Rick, My wife swears she saw you out

at one of the clubs in Montauk Saturday night and that you were wearing lipstick. That’s not true, is it?

Jason O’Day, Montauk

It matched my toenail polish.

M. Murphy, In your opinion should we

be concerned that icebergs are melting in Alaska?

Tom Nash, Mattituck

That’s nothing – ice cubes are melting here every day.

My Dear Rick,When I awake each morning I

feel Mother Sun nourish me. The wind flows through me, like blood, and the sky sings a song of love to the sweet air. I step on Sister Earth and she sighs, sweetly, taking in all I have to offer. I pray to Father Moon for each moment of Being.

Independent VOICES

EDITORIAL


Southampton Town Board members, and particularly Town Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst are taking heat for voting to hire a security guard to attend town board meetings.

Bloggers are having a field day, and many think the move was made in response to a recent spirited meeting about a proposed affordable housing project. Actually, the idea to bring a private security guard on board for meetings has been on the table for months.

Any public gathering, and all public meetings, would ideally have a police presence, but of course the cost would be prohibitive. The fact that Southampton opted to hire a private security firm rather than use town police probably has more to do with staffing and budgetary restraints than anything else.

The fact that the justice court, which had an armed guard, moved out of the building left a void in town hall.

Since 9/11 there has been a heightened awareness of terrorism, and we’ve seen it rear its ugly head time and time again since, for example, the Boston marathon.

Security at town Board MeetingsLocally, the Jewish Center of the Hamptons received threats recently.

We are not implying our local officials have cause for concern. But having a guard in place at public gatherings is a deterrent to anyone whose intention is to disrupt the proceedings in any manner. It is also one less thing for board members to worry about.

In East Hampton, board members and court officials always had access to a push button that rang in the police station, which for years was right behind the meeting room in the old town hall. It is probably a good idea for the East Hampton Town Board to take similar precautions and install a button under the dais in the new town hall (if they haven’t already).

In fact, given some of the crazies who have manned the public podium at town board meetings, sometimes going on with their bad selves for far too long, we urge East Hampton to station guards at meetings – with machine guns, and license numbers that begin with double 0. A trap door would also do the trick – with, fittingly, sharks in the water underneath.

Truck IssueLetter to the Editor,

No one is suggesting “No Trucks” allowed on residential properties -this is a misnomer and /or an inaccurate statement and/or an instance of ‘if you say it enough times it is fact.’

No one is suggesting “NO TRUCKS. There are NO “NO TRUCKS” people. The town board is trying to draft a law describing the type of “light” truck that is acceptable for parking in a residential driveway or property.

This is a particularly emotional subject in Springs because it affects many resident’s livelihoods and it affects many resident’s quality of life. In this hamlet we are zoned mainly residential on 1/4 and/or 1/2 acre lots. We are over crowded and we live closely together and for the most part, nicely together.

The July 28 CAC meeting went very smoothly when Dave Betts, head of public safety, explained code enforcement and how it works to a packed Ashawagh Hall, and what residents should do if they see a violation, where to find code regulations and how to go on line to report code violations.

He also mentioned the police and fire departments and coordinated efforts to maintain the law and changes that have been made to make ordinance enforcement more effective.

Unlike the town board meeting where the supervisor asked for and got respect from both sides when speaking to the issue of allowable trucks, the CAC meeting became a free-for-all, a donnybrook, with lots of shouting, jeering, a few threats, a little intimidation and not so nice talk.

It was an example of mob rule. It prevented discussion of other important business on the agenda.

Too bad Dave Betts did not stick around to listen to this mayhem and maintain the respect, and a bit of law and order.

Fred Overton has withdrawn the

“proposed” law describing the size of trucks allowed on residential property. Hopefully a committee of residents, (including women) directly affected by this issue can and will be able to sit down with the board and come to some understanding. Maybe some outside persons should be called in to study the problems in Springs, the truck(s) is but one manifestation of some major problems.

BETSY RUTHEditor’s Note: The terms “Truck People”

and “No-Truck People” are being bandied about by the citizenry and were not coined by our reporter. No one said, nor did The Independent report, that anyone suggested that no trucks be allowed in Springs.

Conjured Up HatredDear Mr. Rick Murphy,

I have been following the letters of Mr. Saridakis and his attempts to discredit those not only of Mr. Zizelis, but those of like sentiment.

Re 7/29: Did Mr. Saridakis even read the

latest letter to which he was supposedly responding? Mr. Zizelis’ letter was to the point with specifics and indisputable facts and figures, names, numbers, yays and nays.

Mr. Saridakis, it seems, decided if enough irrelevant verbiage was used, the subject matter would somehow be muddled. It was as if he were speaking as the sixth Conservative Male Supreme Court Majority.

Well I’m a woman and these men deciding what I can or cannot do with my body is not only discriminating and degrading but downright insulting.

What it is, that is in the minds of women who for reasons, which can only be answered honestly to themselves alone, that conjure up such animosity toward our President as to allow themselves to be made subservient, is not fathomable. The hatred they have conjured up for President Obama supersedes their personal self respect.

Mr. Saridakis’ approach as to being the arbitrator of what women are entitled

to, even regarding their own body, is not unique in today’s de-configuration of the Republican Party. Politicians such as Todd Akins, Steve King, Richard Mourdock and such self-anointed reproductive scholars would be comical if it did not have the concurrence of their equally biased, uninformed and expansive following.

KIMBERLEY LEE

Love And HateDear Rick,

After reading the blistering, bad boy Bama blitz by Ms. Kahl, which appeared in the 7/22 Indy Letters, I sense that Elaine is not a fan of President Obama. Especially as she views it, with his open door policy inviting immigrants, of a shade, to invade and flood our country.

I’m sure the ones being deported and returned to their country of origin have a different view of that open door which slammed shut behind them concluding their round trip, but let’s not confuse the issue with reality.

Immigration has through the years at times reaped havoc on our country even as far back as 1620 when that Mayflower boat deposited its historic load of undocumented immigrants (Romantically dubbed “Pilgrims”) on our soil much to the umbrage of our native Americans, who still remain the only non-immigrants in our country.

Some might justifiably even refer to these early immigrants or pilgrims as terrorists considering the decimation they reaped upon our Native Americans. Nevertheless, the rest of us inherited and are all offshoots of that and the various Mayflowerish influxes of immigrants or pilgrims throughout the centuries fulfilling their dream of becoming American Citizens.

Although it may have slipped the memory of the, “I hate Obama hatefully more than I ever hated any hateful thing in the whole hateful world of hate” contingent, this is not the first time that the need for immigration reform was recognized.

In 1986 there was a sweeping immigration reform bill encouraged and signed by Ronald, “I love Reagan lovingly more than I ever loved any loving thing in the whole loving world of love” Reagan Rooters, may ruefully remember.

He confidently predicted, “Future generations of Americans will be thankful for our efforts to humanly regain control of our borders and thereby preserve the value of one of the most sacred possessions of our people - American citizenship.”

Even a blind squirrel will find an occasional acorn.

NICHOLAS ZIZELIS

Destroyed From WithinDear Editor,

The world seems upside down, with Hamas attacking through tunnels into the borders of Israel, Israel trying to defend itself and eliminate sources of these attacks. Russia is invading, the Middle East is one boiling caldron of hate and discontent. Boko Haram is massacring innocents who will not convert to their particular sect of religion. Threats come from North Korea regularly.

American cities and infrastructure are crumbling, despite the billions in stimulus dollars the taxpayers funded (and so many of those construction jobs went to Chinese companies, not our own).

Our southern border is non-existent

now with the open arms of the Democrats, sending thousands of illegal immigrants to every state in the union, often by night. The cost of feeding, medicating and transporting them far outweighs the cost of sending them back to their home country.

Meanwhile, our debt is skyrocketing, over 92 million Americans are not working, an increase of 11,472,000 since the president took office. With unemployment benefits gone, many workers have felt the only avenue was to file for disability insurance. The only big increase in employment has been in federal government jobs, where they don’t have enough to keep them busy, according to reports.

So now our enemies rejoice as they see the end coming to the once powerful country, being destroyed from within, the only way to conquer America. All the while Obama is out fundraising.

LYNDA A.W. EDWARDS

What do you think about all the Beyonce, JayZ divorce rumors?

Larry JonesI think they’re going to stay together forever. Ithink they’re truly in love. It’s the press trying tosell papers and trying to get ratings ontelevision. They’re a married couple. Marriedcouples have their ups and downs and I’m surethey’ll work their way through it.

Gary BurtonThey have a tour to sell out. A tour worthpossibly more than 100 million dollars. That’swhy they have to make the press talk aboutthem. I’m quite sure that by the end of the tourthey’ll be reconciled and they’ll be completelyhappy again.

Frank AlkyerWho is this Beyonce and JayZ you speak of?

Joie MorrisseyI think they’re together and everything is finebetween them and that it’s just a rumor. I thinkit’s a false rumor. And sometimes couples justneed a little space between them. That doesn’tmean anything serious.

Library’s Children’s FairEast Hampton Library hosts its children’s fair from 2:30 to 5:30 PM

at Gardiner Farm on James Lane on Sunday. It features carnival rides and games, a book fair with children’s book authors on hand

to sign copies, a raffle with terrific prizes, book-themed crafts, performers, community information booths and delicious treats.

And, as always, this family event is free. This year, it’s the highly-anticipated return of author Artie Bennett.

Hailed as “the Dr. Seuss of your caboose,” Bennett achieved fame with his beloved and hilarious The Butt Book, which he followed up

with poopendous! Bennett will have two new educational picture books to share --

peter panda Melts Down! and Belches, Burps, and Farts-- Oh My!

Fishermen’s Fair On TapThe annual Fisherman’s Fair at Ashawagh Hall in Springs is Saturday.

It boasts lots of fun for the kiddies with rides, games, and fishy crafts. There’s plenty for grown-ups, too, with vendors’ wares to

browse, and an array of yummy food to sample.

A hand very similar to this one was played recently at the Water Mill Bridge Club. The declarer, South, was hoping for a club lead but instead saw West lead a small trump. After drawing the last trump, South led a small spade to dummy’s queen hoping that West had the king. When this trick lost to East, the contract failed because East led a small club and South finessed, losing to West’s king.

When North suggested that the diamond suit “was working,” South defended himself by saying that the first finesse was more likely than a 3-3 split in the diamond suit. South was correct but he could have tried both.

Af ter drawing t rumps he should p lay h i s three h igh diamonds. When diamonds do break favorably, he can play the diamond four, discarding the queen of clubs. If diamonds do not split evenly, he can still try the spade finesse.

Stuck in the gates

On Sunday evening, at approximately 8:30 PM, the Southampton Town Bay Constables responded to a request for assistance over VHF channel 16 for a disabled vessel stuck in the tide gates at the Shinnecock Locks. Bay Constable Mark Ruocco arrived on scene and discovered a 40- foot Atlantis style motor yacht with ten persons aboard pinned against the tide gates during the open cycle of the locks. Ooops.

Bay Constable Ruocco made contact with the vessel’s captain who stated he had lost his engines and steering and was unable to maneuver out of harm’s way. The captain asked if the female passengers on board could be removed for their safety. Bay Constables responded aboard marine unit three and safely removed the female passengers despite the strong current. They were brought to a local marina.

The constables then returned to the disabled vessel and monitored its condition until commercial assistance tow arrived. The vessel was safely removed and returned to its dock. There were no injuries reported and the locks were reopened to traffic within an hour.

the train, the trainYou’ll hear the train a-coming for a little longer, thanks to a new

MTA plan that calls for 10 extra weeks of weekend service to Montauk.Assemblyman Fred Thiele reported the development on Monday,

noting, “This expanded service would support the increasing popularity of the region during early spring and fall.”

The proposal to extend the service is part of draft financial plans. Thiele opined, “With the East End’s growing reliance on the tourism

industry, our economy is dependent on getting people out here. By providing more weekend service to Montauk, we would be putting more resources into the hands of our local year-round business owners and their families.”

Your car is the second largest investment you’re likely to make. Preserve it’s value and your safety by having it repaired professionally.

You have the right to go to the shop of your choice. Your insurance company can not require you to go to a particular shop.

and uniforms for existing teams that lacked gear. “I began bringing them over and doing camps in Township areas,” he said.

Children there would play barefooted, just for the chance to be in the game. In communities where the government lacks funding for basics like infrastructure, there are no resources for after school sports programs, much less the gear Americans take for granted. “But the kids there are so amazing and deserving,” Crandall said.

And receiving.Hoops 4 Hope now works with

165 schools and children’s shelters, reaching 10,000 youngsters in South Africa and Zimbabwe. A youth center the organization runs in Cape Town

sees 125 kids a day and services 10 nearby schools. In addition to basketball and soccer camps, H4H also offers a life skills program designed to build leaders and help children make healthy decisions. Beyond helping children with social development issues, H4H is a passionate participant in the fight against HIV.

“By harnessing the inherent power of sport, we are able to teach key strategies for decision-making and critical thinking, tackle HIV, crime, drugs, and gender inequality before children put themselves at risk. By providing the safe spaces kids deserve, and through repeated contact with real role models, H4H helps children succeed on and off the court!” the organization’s literature states.

A key component of H4H’s success is Ubuntu. “Ubuntu is an

ancient African concept of unity and empathy. Everyone is part of a greater whole, a shared humanity!” an H4H fact sheet explains.

Volunteers are trained and over time, student leaders become coaches in their own communities. They travel the country playing in tournaments, broadening horizons that could have been grim. Coaches are able to gain entrance to better schools and careers. (See sidebar testimonial from one of H4H’s earliest participants about the program, Crandall, and one of the organization’s first directors Jeff Gamble, who’s now a marketing director for the Nets).

The success of the program recently caught the attention of Red Bull’s media arm. Hoops 4 Hope was chosen as one of five non profits that will be included in a documentary due for release

at the end of the year. “That kind of exposure is great,” Crandall enthused.

Of course, it all takes money. “We get most of our funding on this side of the world,” Crandall explained. Their programs are offered for free, so the challenge becomes “keeping the lights on.” Still, donors have helped keep Hoops 4 Hope alive for almost 20 years now. “It’s pretty amazing what people can do,” Crandall said. “Americans like to give.”

Those who want to share their generosity can help this Sunday, from 5 to 8 PM when H4H hosts its 16th annual summer benefit at the Amagansett home of the Kazickas family where Marilyn Monroe and Arthur Miller once summered.

The evening will feature live African music, delicious local food, and fun along with a unique silent auction and contemporary artwork from supporting businesses and artists. Tickets are $125 for adults, with children under 12 admitted free. To purchase tickets, visit www.HoopsAfrica.org.

It used to be so easy. You and a group of buddies got together one night, had a few beers, and drafted your Fantasy Football teams. One guy was designated to do the stats and every week he faxed the updated standings to the other team owners.

Now of course, everything is done on computer, and to be competitive you need to go into the draft room with a lot more than just a list of players.

What kind of league is it? Is it standard scoring, or Points Per Reception? Is it 10, 12 or 14 team leagues? Is it head-to-head or rotisserie style? What weeks will the playoffs take place in the league? How many players are in the starting lineup? Is it a flex league?

Each of these dictates a different draft strategy. In a flex league, for example, an extra starter, usually a wide receiver or tight end, is added to the starting lineup. Some leagues, though, allow a QB flex in addition to a starting quarterback.

Two quarterback leagues are a completely different animal than any other format. Normally, very few quarterbacks are drafted in the first three rounds, and oftentimes none are taken in the first round. If you find yourself in a two QB league, following that strategy will prove fatal.

Trust me when I tell you this: In a two QB league, always take a QB with your first round pick. ALWAYS! I don’t care if you pick first – take a quarterback. In fact,

the new orderyou may want to make your first two picks quarterbacks depending on what the other teams do. Here’s why. Assume you are in a 12-team league – 24 quarterbacks will be starting. For Fantasy purposes, you must realize there are only three to five top tier QBS, and perhaps six to nine in the second tier and maybe four or five more in the third. To win you MUST have two upper tier quarterbacks, and if you don’t take one right away your chances of landing two good ones are nil.

The oddest thing about Fantasy Football is that many players don’t pay much attention to the money. That doesn’t mean they play for fun – there are plenty of leagues that are free. If you sign up for a money league you should know what the payouts are.

One of the worst places to play is CBS, one of the most popular. Consider the cheapest league, which costs $39.99 per team (you pay $29.99 for subsequent teams.)

The first prize is a paltry $200! So CBS will collect almost $480 (these are 12 teams leagues) and give back only about 46 percent. People have gotten shot for pulling cons like that in my old neighborhood in Brooklyn.

Even in its highest tier leagues -- $999 to join – CBS rakes in almost $12,000 and returns only $7000! It’s a rip-off, pure and simple. DON’T give CBS any of your money, period.

It gets worse. ESPN gets away with grand larceny. A team costs $24.95 – but instead of winning cash you earn “Winner Circle Points” to be spent in the ESPN store on junk like ESPN blankets, thermal heaters, fold-up chairs etc. In other words, the same crap they give you to buy subscriptions to their shitty magazine.

Despite the fact thousands of leagues will be formed on ESPN, only four people will win prizes at the end. The grand prize is a $5000 gift certificate to Best Buy, which probably costs ESPN nothing. There are three other smaller Best Buy certificates handed out at the end. That’s it.

On most sites, the more you pay to play the higher the percentage of the payout. In other words, if you plan on spending $250 on Fantasy Football it is more cost effective to

buy one $250 team than it is to buy 10 $25 teams.

If you want to do this for a living, or at least to augment your income, shop for the best deals. A site called Pheenoms returns over 90 percent of the money paid in (even higher for high stakes games) and has software comparable to the big boys. Yahoo has been returning 90 percent for the past two years, regardless of how little or how much it costs to enter the league. And of course, the single-week sites like Fanduel and Draft Kings have good payouts and you can pick a new team every week.

The most cost efficient way remains to run your own league. Get 10 players to kick in $50 each, set up a free league with a “private” draft on Yahoo, and give the winner the $500 – it’s as simple as that.

It’s not just a game anymore. Run your Fantasy team like you would run your own business – try and make money.

did include the promise of aggressive enforcement of the town’s code. Quality of life complaints from community members have been at the forefront in recent years as Montauk has become more and more popular with a young, party-favoring crowd and new clubs have made The Lighthouse District their summer home.

Betts emphasized that none of the Main Street businesses had been given tickets for their picnic tables or tables and chairs . . . yet. He allowed that one establishment, The Memory Motel, was served with a code violation within a week of his taking on the role of head enforcement honcho in May. The Memory is in court for alleged violation of their site plan, Betts said, referring to a fence that encloses a parking lot at the site. The corral has become a de facto expansion of the bar, with many patrons taking the air with their PBRs.

Interestingly, the creation of the corral was the result of an agreement between the Memory, the town and police back during the McGintee administration. It was seen as a way to contain crowds of patrons.

Three weeks ago the Southampton Breakers seemed dead in the water, mired near the bottom of the Hamptons Collegiate baseball league standings.

Then the Breakers went on a major role, winning size consecutive games to earn a playoff berth. Four more wins followed, the last on Sunday, and that win gave them the HCBL trophy for the second time in three years.

Southampton showed a flare for the dramatic all season, and Saturday was no exception. The Breakers were knotted 5-5 in an extra-inning battle against a stubborn Shelter Island team when Mitchell McGeein strode to the plate. McGeein, a solidly built right-hander out of Eastern Michigan University, has been getting it done for Southampton all season, particularly during the final month of the season.

“I wasn’t even thinking too much in that at-bat,” McGeein said. “I just wanted to see the ball and put a good swing on it.”

He did just that, sending the ball into the seats to put his team ahead 6-5. The Breakers added an insurance run when Kyle Smith (Vanderbilt) walked and eventually came around to score on a wild pitch. Nick Liegi picked up the save and the Breakers

Breakers Ride Hot Streak to HCBL Titlewent wild, piling on each other near the pitchers mound.

“These guys played great at the end of the year,” Southampton manager Rob Cafiero said. “We were clicking at the right time. Also, the camaraderie on the team was probably the best I’ve ever had. We had talented kids, but at the same time, they played together very well.”

McGeein was named the HCBL Championship Series Most Valuable Player for his heroics. He was even better in the playoffs, going 8 for 17 (.471) with three homers and 10 RBI.

“You can’t say enough about the kid,” Cafiero said of McGeein. “Mitch did a tremendous job for us the whole season, and especially in the last week. He stepped up at the right time. Any time there was a big spot, he seemed to be at the plate in that situation, and he always came through.”

Shelter Island finished the regular season with a 21-19 records. The Bucks led the league for much

of the season and won two straight against Sag Harbor to advance to the title series. Southampton won the opener Friday at home courtesy of a four-hit shutout by Tim Ingram.

“There’s no greater feeling [than winning the championship],” McGeein said. “Being here for two months, we were here to get better, to have fun and come together as a group of men. We exceeded the limits of what we thought we could do at the beginning of the year. Coming out on top, winning in

extra innings, it’s more than anyone on this team could have expected.”

MindedSportsBy Pete Mundo

For the past few seasons the second half has been disastrous for the Mets. First half optimism, and semi-contention, has led to second half swoons. So far in 2014, the second half hasn’t been synonymous with losing. That’s in large part thanks to a pitching staff that is top 10 in team ERA and batting average against.

The offense has continued to go through hot and cold spurts, but clearly needs to be addressed in the offseason. As the Mets play out the final two months, there will be plenty to assess and learn about who can help this team next season.

The trade deadline came and went with no moves from General Manager Sandy Alderson. I was surprised to see many Mets fans disappointed by the lack of action.

Considering the franchise has been burnt by midseason trades such as Kris Benson and Victor Zambrano, standing pat, rather than chasing an unlikely playoff berth, was the way to go. Plus, in-season trades can oftentimes be more costly because there is a sense of desperation, combined with a deadline.

When grading moves this season, Lucas Duda has made Sandy Alderson look like a genius. Duda leads the Mets with 20 home runs, while Ike Davis has continued to struggle since being traded to the Pirates. Daniel Murphy’s defensive woes still exist, but there’s no doubt he’s become one of the better hitters in the National League.

Juan Lagares and Cur t i s Granderson are staples in the outfield, and despite his struggles, David Wright isn’t going anywhere at third base. Catcher Travis D’Arnaud has finally shown his offensive capabilities since being recalled from Triple A. Offensively, upgrades can be made with a power bat in left field (Carlos Gonzalez?) or improvement at shortstop (Troy Tulowitzski? Starlin Castro?).

Gonzalez, Tulowitzski, and Castro

Mets Wise to Stay the Course are some of the players the Mets have reportedly been interested in. But, making that move mid-season would have been foolish. The front office now has more time to assess their trade chips internally.

Do they believe Jacob DeGrom can be the pitcher he’s been the past few weeks? Or is he the guy who had an ERA above 4.00 in the minors last year? How does Noah Syndergaard finish his season? Can he really be the top of the rotation piece that he’s been projected to

be?Despite a rebuilding process

that has taken far too long, Sandy Alderson is finally on the brink of something special. They’re close -- really close. Mets fans’ frustration should not be with Alderson, but rather with the Wilpons, who haven’t given Alderson a budget that a team in New York City deserves.

And while we’re at it, let’s give credit where it is due. Many of those helping this season’s team were products of the Omar Minaya era (Juan Lagares, Duda, DeGrom). For all his flaws as a GM, some of Minaya’s hidden gems are paying off.

A blockbuster trade last week would have been to appease an antsy fan base, make back pages, and create buzz on sports talk radio. The Mets have tried

that shortsighted approach too many times, often ending in disappointment. The reality is they are unlikely to make a playoff push in the second half.

On the trade deadline, July 31, there were too many teams (four) to leap in the standings, and too many games (5.5) to make up. Mets fans have waited eight years, and likely counting, since their last playoff appearance. At this point, what’s another year? If it means making a wiser and more calculated decision in the offseason, then it’s well worth it.

By Vincent PicaCommodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard

Coast Guard Auxiliary News

Commodore, First District, Southern Region (D1SR) United States Coast Guard

If you’ve ever seen the reflection of the rotating blue hailing light in your windshield, you’ve felt the quickening in certain parts of your body. “Jeez, what did I do wrong??” The United States Coast Guard can and will board you at their discretion. They need no search warrant, no provocation, no reason other than “Good Morning, sir. My name is Officer Jones with the US Coast Guard - the Coast Guard is here today to ensure you are in compliance with all applicable federal laws and regulations.”

What Happens FirstFirst, you will be impressed by

their youthfulness and their polite and professional demeanor. These are highly trained federal officers. And the very first question that they will ask you, before they even step off their vessel onto yours, is, “Without reaching for them or touching them, do you have any weapons on board?” Subtly but powerfully, the tone is set.

“I am polite. I am professional. I mean business.” Let’s assume (and hope) that the answer to that question is “no,” since I would need a lot more space than this column if the answer is “yes.”

What Happens NextThe inspection that follows

is driven largely by the size of

We’re Being Boarded By the Coast guard

the vessel with a few standard exceptions. Your actual registration needs to be aboard and current. The “HIN” number, like your car’s “VIN” number, needs to be the same on your registration and on your boat (low on the starboard side of the transom.) If they don’t match, someone has a lot of explaining to do.

The registration numbers must be of proper size (at least three inches), of contrasting color to your hull, and be the most forward of any numbering or lettering on the boat. If you have a “MSD” (Marine Sanitation Device, a.k.a. a “head” or toilet), regardless of the size of your vessel, it must conform to regulations. All the bays and creeks are “No Discharge Zones” so, if there is an over-board through-hull from the MSD holding tank, it must be in the locked/closed position and the key must be under the control of the skipper. It can be seized closed or, lastly, the handle can be removed and it must be in the closed position.

The rest is largely going to be driven by the size of your vessel:

How many personal flotation devices (life jackets) – at least one for everybody aboard, in good working order and readily available.

Fire Extinguishers – boat size dependent but all must be in working order

Flares – boat size dependent but all must be “good to go”, i.e., unexpired!

And so on and so forth . . .

What Happens Then?Well, there are three outcomes

from here. First and best, you will get a Report of Boarding and it is marked, “No violations.” You are good to go for the season.

Secondly, your Report of Boarding could be marked “Written Warning” about some violation that has not risen to the level of Notice of Violation. One caveat. If the boarding officer returns to the station and finds that you already have been given a warning for the same issue, your notice becomes a Violation.

That is also the third outcome that could happen right at the boat – a “Notice of Violation” is issued. There are two general outcomes from here. If the boarding officer believes that the nature of the violation is inherently unsafe, you will be directed to follow the Coast Guard back to the dock.

They are not going to allow you to keep fishing when some aspect of your boat could lead to serious injury or death to you, your crew or other boaters. Or, it can take on the

aspect of a driving violation. The notice is mailed to the Coast Guard hearing office in Portsmouth, VA. There the boarding report will be reviewed by a case officer where fines, further letters of violations, etc. will be issued. You will be notified by mail and you will have time (15 days) to file an appeal.

How To Avoid All This?Well, the United States Coast

Guard Auxiliary conducts free (your favorite price) vessel exams all season long – and they are not enforcement events. If your boat “fails” virtually the same inspection that would be conducted by the regulars, you get a report that details the deficiency – and the inspector’s cell phone number. He or she will tell you, “When you have this addressed, call me. I will come down and re-run the inspection.” This results in a USCGAux sticker of compliance being affixed to your windshield. Did I mention the price? Free. http://www.safetyseal.net/GetVSC/.

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 . . .”
