By Rick Murphy
Though long lines and short tempers attest to a palpable shortage of gasoline, state officials promised that relief would arrive on the East End this week.
“There’s some panic out there but I spoke to the Governor’s office and the prognosis is good,” said State Assemblyman Fred Thiele. “They’ve gotten power back at a couple of the key terminals and the Port of
Officials Promise Relief At PumpsNew York is open.” Thiele said in addition Governor Andrew Cuomo has temporarily eased regulations to make it easier for tankers to unload.
Congressman Tim Bishop announced that the Energy Department has established a team to assist local authorities in their efforts to help get gas stations back online, as part of the coordinated Super Storm Sandy recovery effort on all levels of government.
To help state and local officials identify gas stations that are in need of emergency generators to restore power or are running short on fuel supplies, the Energy Department has established a toll-free number at 1-866-402-3775. Gas station owners and managers can now call if they need assistance from state and local officials in restoring power or securing supplies of gasoline following Super Storm Sandy.
“The situation will continue
to improve in the coming days as gas deliveries increase, but this new federal effort to link service station owners with the resources they need to serve the public is a critical step in returning the system to normal,” said Bishop.
Nevertheless, tension is building as motorists -- and those who need gas to power generators -- are clashing with each other and with gas station owners.
“Things are getting better,” Cuomo commented. “That does not mean there will be a total alleviation of the problem in the immediate future.” Cuomo urged people not to hoard gas.
Last Friday Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone ordered gas station owners to limit customers to one tank of gas, either in their motor vehicle or in portable containers. Bellone has also urged county residents to stay off the roads if possible to conserve gas and also to allow repair trucks easier access to the roads. As of this writing there were still 200,000 LIPA customers without power.
Though there is certainly plenty of outrage over the outages, the general perception seems to be LIPA is doing its best to restore power. “There’s no question they handled it better than Irene,” Thiele said, “but that’s not setting the bar very high.”
Hess gas stations are open for business. The company has posted a complete list of stations and their current gasoline supplies at hessexpress.com, drawing praise from Thiele in the process. “Hess is one of the better corporate citizens,” he said.
T h o u g h t h e r e h a s b e e n speculation that a food shortage might develop on the East End, Thiele said that wasn’t happening. However, U.S. Senators Charles E. Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand in a joint press release announced the United States Department of Agriculture approved New York State’s request for emergency food resources. Roughly 1.1 million pounds of household-size USDA food items will be distributed to households through 1000 designated emergency feeding outlets in the areas of Westchester and Rockland counties, New York City, and Long Island.
There is no rest for the weary. As of deadline the National Weather Service warned, “A significant coastal storm will likely impact the tri-state area” beginning today and stretching into tomorrow night. There will be heavy rain and a potential for gusting winds that could exceed 50 miles-per-hour. “Coastal flooding and additional beach erosion will result from this system,” according to the weather service.

A six-year-old girl organizes a bake sale with her friends, collecting $250 outside the One Stop Market. An anonymous benefactor donates a helicopter to transport emergency supplies. Shopkeepers in East Hampton and Montauk -- at Lululemon and Kailani -- begin to collect clothes and are soon overwhelmed by the response. A local legislator organizes a benefit concert in Wainscott. A young woman decides to drive her truck to the Rockaways and volunteers quickly fill it with shovels and brooms, plus a generator. The Hampton Jitney takes a busload of volunteers to the Rockaways. A little boy brings his piggy bank to the Montauk Community Church.
Those are just a few of the examples of how East Enders sprang into action this week, looking for ways to assist victims of Super Storm Sandy in Breezy Point, Long Beach, and the Rockaways.
They are efforts largely revealed through social media, with friends contacting friends on Facebook and the creation of a page called East End Cares.
On Monday morning, Johnson Nordlinger, assistant to East Hampton Town Supervisor Bill Wilkinson, was helping to clean out a section of the old town hall so it could serve as a collection site. She explained that she and a group of women had gathered at Gurney’s Inn on Sunday, trying to figure out a way to coordinate relief efforts that were already underway. In less than 24 hours, East End Cares gleaned over 1000 subscribers
East End Cares: “Sharing Our Collective Love”
and by Monday night the number topped 1500.
Central collection sites were establ ished at the Montauk Community Church, East Hampton Town Hall, and the Omni in Southampton, but they are far from the only ones. Alyson Follenius spearheaded a clothing drive at Lululemon on Main Street in East Hampton beginning last Friday. By Sunday morning available space was filled and the question became – how to get the donations to the needy?
Follenius joined forces with Danielle Quakenbush (her daughter Dakota hosted the bake sale) and Sunday afternoon, a flatbed truck donated by a friend was filled with clothes and cleaning supplies.
Out in Montauk on Sunday morning members of the Montauk Fire Department gathered supplies, packed them onto three trucks and a chief’s car and travelled to Breezy Point, Queens, one of the hardest hit areas. Simultaneously, the staff at Kailani, under the supervisor of Samantha Romanowski and Kristin Burke amassed piles and piles of donated clothes. “We started on Friday,” Romanowski reported, “and a truckload went this morning. We’re going to accept donations till people have nothing left to give.”
In fact, by Monday morning, a message went out over the EEC page – NO MORE CLOTHES! Instead, organizers asked for heavy duty cleaning tools, like mops, buckets, contractor bags, plus an array of basics such as diapers and formula for babies, plus paper towels, toilet

“Politicians are like diapers; they need to be changed often and for the same reason.”
― Mark Twain
I’m writing this column one day before the election. By the time you read it, the results will be in.
SouR gRaPeSI’m sure that Barack Obama will
win the electoral vote and I’m pretty sure that Mitt Romney will win the popular vote.
More Americans will vote for Mitt Romney than for Barack Obama but in the end Barack Obama, with the electoral vote, will be president again.
Did I hear someone say “God help us?”
That said, Obama ran a brilliant campaign. His record was dismal. We had and will continue to have high unemployment . . . more Americans living on food stamps . . . more families earning less than they were four years ago . . .
He forced Obamacare down our throats against the wishes of the majority of Americans.
His “Al Qaeda is dead” was his version of Bush’s “mission accomplished.”
Benghazi proved how wrong he was. Yet his administration, with the help of the press, covered up his cover-up with a fable that four people were killed as a result of a movie.
So how did he win? He successfully demonized Mitt
Romney, a good man who would have been a great president.
The press went along with it. They spent weeks talking about Romney’s treatment of the family
dog . . his career at Bain . . . Big Bird . . . the bull crap about the “war against women.”
The press concentrated on everything but Obama’s dismal record and the fact that after four years he has no plan for the future other than taxing the wealthy for their “fair” share.
Obama relied on many smart Democrats to drink the Kool-Aid.
If you’re a Democrat you saw the real Romney and the real Obama in the first debate.
Then you allowed the media and God knows what to cloud your minds. If ever there was a time to cross party lines, it was during this election.
Too many smart people, whom I respect, went to the polls knowing they were going to cast a vote for a man who has failed the country and gives every indication he is going to turn this country into a second-rate power financially, where your kids and mine are going to pay for his mistakes.
He successfully sold class warfare and will now work to redistribute wealth -- yours and mine.
You’re not better off now than you were four years ago, but in four years you will look at this time as “the good old days.”
Am I disappointed? Half the nation is disappointed. But let’s look at it in the proper perspective. It’s an election. We lost. It’s not the end of the world.
Compare it with those poor people in New Jersey and Staten Island who lost their homes and their lives to Hurricane Sandy.
The woman whose two small children slipped out of her hands and were lost forever in the middle of a deadly wind.
The two children who were playing in their home in North Salem and were crushed to death when a tree hit the house.
The old woman on Staten Island sifting through mud where her house once stood, looking for and retrieving her wedding picture from years ago. The only possession she
has left in the world.There are so many sad stories.
This is what is truly important in our world.
By comparison, this election is just another blip in history.
The other day, while driving out to the Hamptons, I listened to my first book on tape. It was Truman, about the life of Harry Truman, by David McCullough. It was great.
Truman never went to college. He was just another Senator who was chosen by Roosevelt to be his vice president.
Then Roosevelt died suddenly. Truman was in office a few days when he made the decision to drop the atomic bomb on Japan to save the lives of many American soldiers.
He led the nation to prosperity when everyone thought we were headed for a post-war recession.
He saved a starving Europe with The Marshall Plan.
He stopped the spread of Communism with The Truman Doctrine.
He recognized Israel and became that nation’s greatest friend.
As I drove, I contrasted Harry Truman with Barack Obama.
When Truman came into office, hardly anyone thought he was up for the job. This was a small, nondescript man with thick glasses, a terrible flat voice and probably, of all the presidents before and since, the worst public speaker in the nation’s history.
Barack Obama, on the other hand, came into office with the whole world cheering him on. He promised us hope and change. He’s handsome . . . dynamic . . . has a great speaking voice and is a wonderful speaker.
When the smoke cleared, it was obvious to me and should be to you that Truman was a great president and Barack Obama is a dud.
He’s our president for the next four years and did I hear someone say “God help us?”
Oh yes, I did. It was me.If you wish to comment on “Jerry’s
Ink” please send your message to [email protected].

The most destructive storm in the history of the United States had, like most, an innocuous beginning.
In the middle of October a so-called tropical wave formed over the Sahara Desert. Feeding off the warm coastal waters, the storm, still in its infancy, rode the trade winds all the way to the Caribbean.
On October 22 the National Weather Service, which had been monitoring the system, noticed the dreaded counter clockwise motion intensifying and issued a tropical storm bulletin. Some meteorologists also began noticing a troublesome scenario that might be on the horizon.
On October 24 the storm, now officially called Sandy, was gathering girth and intensity. It slammed into Jamaica and became a killer. It would take many more lives before it finally dissipated.
By October 25 the scenario meteorologists feared was becoming a reality. A high pressure system that stretched from Bermuda up through Newfoundland would force Sandy to chose one of two paths . . . one would lead her harmlessly out to sea. The other would send her barreling up the Northeast coast.
On Saturday, October 26 the National Weather Service, noting the developing weather pattern, labeled Sandy, “a potentially life-threatening storm.” The air-pressure in the eye took a sudden, large, drop, and the National Hurricane Center warned Sandy was “a large storm.” That proved to be an understatement. It was, briefly, upgraded to a Category 2. But there was more: A wintry storm was moving across the U.S. from the west, and frigid air was streaming south from Canada.
Forecasters were forced to grapple with the unthinkable: If the three weather systems collided they would create a monster storm, one to rival the Perfect Storm of 1991 and the Hurricane of 1938 dubbed The Long Island Express. Unfortunately, that’s what happened.
Sandy churned up the Atlantic until she caught a scent of the cold front headed east. She made an abrupt turn toward the mainland, increasing in speed and intensity as the two systems hurtled toward each other.
Sandy crashed into southern New Jersey Monday as a hurricane and turned into a cyclone soon after. It was the most intense storm ever to make landfall in the Northeast corridor of the continent. By Tuesday, October 30, the storm, slowing down, battered an area from
Sandy’s Circuitous Death MarchWest Virginia through Pennsylvania with heavy snow. Last Wednesday, finally breaking up, Sandy passed through western New York State on a path to the Great Lakes. She would end up in Canada, finally turning northeast and back out to sea, leaving in her wake two weeks of terror.
Sandy’s death march was an epic massacre. As of this writing there are 80 dead, and an estimated $60 billion in damages. As hard to
believe as it seems, the East End was relatively lucky; it will take years for New Jersey, for example, to recover and rebuild.
“Compared to what I’ve seen on TV we feel silly complaining,” said Larry Cantwell, the East Hampton Village Administrator. “I realize how fortunate we were.” Still, the impact here is palpable. “The [beach] erosion is the worst I’ve ever seen,” Cantwell said.
“You look around and it’s hard
to say we were lucky but we were,” State Assemblyman Fred Thiele remarked.

Southampton Town officials met with town board members last
Sandy Super Subject In Southampton
Thursday morning to discuss the devastation of Hurricane Sandy, and what to do now to start cleaning
it up.Pockets of the East End still
remain without power, dozens of town roads remain blocked by fallen trees and downed power lines, areas of the town’s oceanfront are destroyed, and there are special precautions homeowners need to take in restoring their properties, officials said.
Saltwater damage may be the most serious danger town residents face, according to Public Safety Administrator Cheryl Kraft.
“We’ve had teams of assessors, teams of code enforcement and the building department looking at homes throughout the town,” she said. “They deemed certain buildings unsafe. With grids being
energized there’s the potential for more of that. Saltwater damage to power supplies is very dangerous. People should unplug [appliances] so there is not too large of a load when the power comes on.”
The Long Island Power Authority, according to Deputy Supervisor Frank Zappone, recommended that anyone without power, especially those who suspect water damage to the electrical system, should turn off the main circuit breaker and then shut off each individual breaker as well, thus making the load less heavy when power is restored. Kraft agreed that was good advice, adding that if homeowners have standing water in their basement, they should not attempt to reach their circuit breakers.
Supervisor Anna Throne-Holst added that homeowners who think their house may have suffered electrical system damage can call her office at 631-283-6055. A town fire marshal would then do an assessment of the system, but only in the instance of water intrusion.
“If you’re concerned, we will give you an assessment,” the supervisor said.
The town’s oceanfront beaches suffered immensely from the super storm.
Southampton Town Police Captain Robert Pearce said police are now concerned with protecting vacant homes, particularly those on stretches of Dune Road that cannot be accessed by roadways, which are buried under sand.
Quogue Village opened its bridges to Dune Road, but Pearce noted Ponquogue Bridge will be kept closed indefinitely to restrict access to the area.
According to Pearce, looters and burglaries haven’t been an issue in the power outages across the town.
Available to speak about restoring the dune line on oceanfront properties were town trustees Eric Schultz, Ed Warner and Jon Semlear.
“It’s disorienting,” Semlear said. “It’s hard to tell where you’re standing when at the beach. It’s really hard to describe.”
Semlear added the deck at the Sagg Main parking lot in Sagaponack is severely damaged.
“It’s dramatic,” he said.Throne-Holst said the town
needs to wait for the Army Corps of Engineers to conduct its assessment of the damage to beaches along the oceanfront before the highway department can begin replenishing the dune line.
“We’re going to see if it could be treated as an emergency area,” she said.

Supervisor Bill Wilkinson was uncharacteristically complimentary. He offered an update on hurricane response during last Thursday night’s East Hampton Town Board meeting, seasoning his comments with effusive praise for town employees and their efforts during and after Super Storm Sandy.
Stating he was “really, really proud” of the work accomplished by town employees during the storm, the supervisor singled out the highway department and its superintendent Steve Lynch.
Early on in the storm, a breach threatened on the Napeague Stretch near state parklands. He said he saw a trickle of water, and within a matter of a half hour, there were three feet of water coming through. Lynch said he could plug the breach and Wilkinson gave him the go-ahead, even though it was state property. Within just a few hours Napeague was passable again.
Lynch returned the praise noting that he was in Montauk at four in the morning. “And who do I pass? Bill’s out there.”
The supervisor reported that, as of last Thursday town officials were trying to find accommodations for 800 LIPA workers, who were staging at the airport. Robert Strada from LTV said he was making the studio available for the emergency crews to relax during their down time.
The town’s shelter hosted over 185 people, Wilkinson said, noting showers were available at the East Hampton high school and YMCA. As the cold days and nights wore on, additional shelter was available at the American Legion in Amagansett.
While most agreed the East End dodged a bullet, with damage nowhere near as severe as points west, several locations suffered profound injury.
Many of Montauk’s vulnerable areas took heavy hits – storm surge carved sand out from under homes on Soundview Drive and oceanfront motels. The boardwalk at Gosman’s and the docking at the Montauk Marine Basin both fell prey to the surge, with water coming up several feet into the store at the basin. Gurney’s beach bar, typically about 100 feet from the crashing waves, was lost. A cottage in Wainscott owned by millionaire Ron Lauder went into the water. Georgica Pond and Wainscott Pond both opened, with fish flopping on Wainscott Main Street – “A truly historic event,” Diane McNally, Clerk of the Town Trustees, observed.
Praise For Local RespondersOve r the weekend , Ca r l
Darenberg from the marine basin and Paul Monte from Gurney’s both expressed relief that local damage wasn’t worse and confidence in their ability to rebuild and repair.
On Thursday night, McNally, noted, “Overall, we’ve been very fortunate.” She expressed the hope that Town Natural Resources Director Kim Shaw and Chief Building Inspector Tom Preiato work together“ to ensure our shorelines are put back together appropriately” and to ensure rebuilding follows the town code.
A FEMA trailer was slated to
arrive in East Hampton today and would be located at town hall today and tomorrow from 7 AM to 7 PM.
To assist with cleanup, town officials suspended the fee for dumping brush at the town recycling center through last weekend. Upon realization that the gasoline shortage may have kept some residents from taking extra trips to haul brush, Councilwoman Sylvia Overby, who sponsored the original measure, said she would consider a follow up resolution suspending the charge for another weekend later this month.

For years now, Larry Kane has awakened on November 1, weary, but filled with good feelings. He and his wife Luisa (pictured above) are among the contingent of families that put on the annual trick or treat extravaganza on Cooper Lane in East Hampton Village.
Despite the hurricane-related power outage, and in the shadow of felled trees, the families managed to host the block long party last Wednesday night.
“This is the best thing that happens in East Hampton,” Kane enthused as the night came to an end. He estimated over 1000 kids visited Cooper Lane and credited the village police and an independent tree removal service with toiling furiously to clear the roadway in time for the arrival of costumed kids. Homeowners used generators to power lights, and even a fog machine.
The neighbors proved that, in the wake of the super storm, in the face of massive power outages, lights could still shine . . . in pumpkins.

There’s really nothing funny about what happened. My brother-in-law’s daughter lost her house in the Rockaways -- the water came in through the second story windows. They have two small kids. Breezy Point, where so many of our Brook-lyn buddies live, lost 400 homes – 100 to fire. Our family spends every Mother’s Day there. My 92 year-old mother tried to ride it out without power . . . just a few blocks from Gerritsen Beach. The water, incredibly, crossed Avenue U and came halfway up our block, stopping right before it reached her house. A poor soul lost her life when she drowned walking her dog in Montauk. Speculation is the dog got caught in a wave and she tried to save him, but we’ll never know.
Dog SenseAnd so it came to pass that our
Whippet, Garcia, had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the hur-
Life goes onricane. Karen wanted to walk him on the street. I told her she was crazy. I analyzed the situation and deduced the area of least exposure would be behind the western side of the house. Since the wind was com-ing out of the east, that would mean the house would block the falling trees and flying limbs and shield us from harm. Naturally, being the manly man I am, I went out despite Karen’s insistence that she should go. (I should also point out since the electric and cable were out, I had nothing better to do.)
The dog, of course, has instincts far beyond what humans have. Even though he is deaf he realized instinctively that the outdoors was fit for no man or beast. We went behind the house – me pulling him every inch – he urinated on his front paw, turned around, and pulled me back to the house. It took all of
10 seconds. Moments later I heard a loud thud but it was dark and I didn’t see anything untoward. The next day I saw the copper chimney top on the ground. It would have killed me.
You see, there was one flaw in my logic. Yes, technically speaking, the west side of the house was the saf-est. But since the wind was coming out of the east, anything from the roof would blow off the west side.
Ok, so I’m no Einstein, but Garcia may be.
Major DisturbanceThe lights were out, the house
was cold. I could hear the howl-ing – it was impossible to escape. It seemed it would go on forever, but every excruciating hour was terror filled.
The rage was palpable; the frenzy unmistakable.
I felt panic set in: perhaps I should make a run for it – flee to a safe haven. The truth was, though, there was nowhere to go. I had to ride out the storm and stand strong against the unrelenting pressure.
Unleashed, she was ferocious indeed. It was if the darkness em-boldened her during the terror filled nights.
Finally, after two days, the power came back on, the cable came back on, and we were able to take hot showers and enjoy a good meal.
Things got back to normal. But I will never forget Hurricane Karen.
Words To PonderI h a d a n i c e c h a t w i t h
B r i d g e h a m p t o n ’ s R i c h a r d Hendrickson, a cooperative observer for the National Weather Service, after the storm. “I’m a farmer who’s been reporting the temperature s ince 1930 ,” he r eminded . Hendrickson has seen all of the big ones. “This one wasn’t anything like the Hurricane of 1938,” he said of the hurricane (Sandy, not Karen). “I went to bed and slept through this one,” he said with a laugh.
And then his tone got serious. Our planet is going through a tragic transformation. “The temperature is rising. The Artic and Antarctica are getting warner. The sea is rising – there is no place for the water to go,” he said. Except on us.
“Because of global warming I think we are in for a lot more intense weather,” he warned.
To me that means more batteries. More charcoal, more potable water. Karen’s solution can be summed up in one word: “salami.” Someone convinced her salami doesn’t have to be refrigerated – I find this hard to believe, but the more pertinent question is how long a human can live on salami alone.
Prosciutto would be another matter entirely.

Leave No Pet BehindDear Editor,
Two paws up to New York City for allowing people seeking refuge from Hurricane Sandy to take their animal companions with them on subways, taxis, and trains, as well as in all of the city’s emergency shelters.
All cities should follow New York City’s compassionate lead. Our animal companions are even less equipped to survive a disaster than we are. Left behind in an emergency, cats, dogs, and other animals may be stranded in dangerous situations for days or weeks without food or water if conditions prevent their guardians from returning.
What’s more, as we’ve learned from Hurricane Katrina and other emergencies, many people would rather risk their lives
than leave their companions behind to face uncertain fates in a disaster zone.
I urge everyone to ensure that they have an emergency plan in place for their animal family members, and to never leave animals behind when evacuating a disaster. Material possessions can be replaced, but best friends can’t. For disaster-preparedness tips, visit www.peta.org.
LINDSAY POLLARD-POST
Privatizing DisasterDear Rick,
Sandy, “The Perfect Storm” showed President Obama to be the Perfect President to handle it. Before the first breeze trumpeting the eminent arrival of Super Storm Sandy ruffled our hair, our President was making arrangements for the emergency relief of those who would be the possible victims. And when the fear became a reality, he was ready and implemented all necessary government
measures and also visited the troubled scenes, and this time spent at the critical tail end of the presidential race. Ask Republican Governor Chris Christie. This was no Hurricane Katrina scenario.
Imagine Mitt Romney in that position. During the June 13, 2011 Republican presidential debate, he uncharacteristically answered honestly that federal disaster relief was, “Immoral.” He said that he would have the private sector handle it. Disaster for profit why not?
That same greed oriented mentality would advocate for prisoners for profit by privatizing jails, human well being for profit by privatizing Health Care, communication for profit by privatizing the Postal Service, education for profit by privatizing Public Schools, U.S. disaster response for profit by privatizing FEMA type activities, etc. The privatizing for profit by he and his privateers goes on and on. Romney’s Bain Capital is the poster boy for these buccaneers. It is their piracy
modus operandi: Attack, Capture, Destroy and Plunder.
The concept would be laughable if it wasn’t so lamentable.
NICHOLAS ZIZELIS
Can’t Be TrustedDear Editor,
It was disappointing to read that The Independent has endorsed Mitt Romney. I certainly hope he doesn’t win.
This man has demonstrated that he has no core values, is obviously a hostage of the extreme right wing of his party, lacks authenticity, and has changed his tune so many times, we have no idea who he is or what he truly believes.
His campaign has been running ads based on misinformation and deception.
After refusing to answer questions from reporters for three weeks, he finally decided to issue a statement that he is now for FEMA after he was against it. This, while the President took a tour of the devastation
And When It’s Over
Chances are many of us were glued to our televisions into the wee hours as one of the closest presidential races ever came to a close.
It’s possible, like the Bush/Gore race, we still don’t know who won.There has been much criticism of the Electoral College, and the role it plays in
the election. This is not new, but it has intensified because of the way states are aligned politically.
The truth is, the people don’t elect the president, Electoral College votes do. Since most states were solidly aligned with one candidate or the other, the battle was waged in the 10 or so “Battleground States” which deprived most people in this country from seeing either candidate up close and personal.
There was a day not too long ago when candidates strived to visit every state, a symbolic gesture indicating all of us were involved in the election process. There seems to be something wrong with a system that has both candidates spending all their time – and money –in a handful of states.
Speaking of money, the advent of the Super Pac -- fueled by an unfortunate Supreme Court decision – has put this country’s fate in the hands of uber-wealthy individuals and corporations, many of whom undoubtedly place their own self-interest over the interests of the people.
Make no mistake about it – the money is flooding into both camps, despite the Demo-cratic Party rhetoric to the contrary. What we need is for all candidates to agree on a predetermined spending limit and adhere to it – there’s a fat chance that will happen.
As for the Electoral College, there have been frequent calls for reform over the years. It is archaic and unnecessary, and it’s time to let the people decide.
Financial reform is obviously needed; perhaps donations should be pooled, and the money distributed amongst all the candidates equally. That would certainly restore sanity to the process, because let’s face it --the big donors who put up the big cash expect something in return, and they get it. Unfortunately that’s how the game is played.

of New Jersey with the blunt-speaking Governor Christie, who has made it clear that he is very grateful to the President and for all the government help he can get.
Romney never released more than two years of tax returns. Could it be there was some embarrassing information regarding tax avoidance, even if not illegal?
Neither he nor his running mate can be trusted. Ryan couldn’t even tell the truth about his marathon time! And if you have to lie about that . . .
PATRICIA MASON
DisappointedDear Editor,
I am extremely disappointed in your shortsighted choice to endorse Mitt Romney for President.
Most educated people understand that the economic situation that we’re currently digging out of was created by the Republican policies of the previous eight years before Obama took office. To say that Obama didn’t deliver on his promises is to turn a blind eye to the extraordinary efforts of the Radical Right in Congress to thwart him at every turn.
More importantly, Romney has proven to be a spineless political hack who has changed his tune so many times no one can be sure where he stands!
I am sad that now I have to lump you in with that other conservative rag, the NY Post, which I now only use to cover my son’s art table.
J. FAGEN
Who do you think will win the local elections, Bishop - Altschuler and Fleming - LaValle?
Jim HanleyI’d like it to go Republican. But Bishop willprobably win. He’s been in office so long. Andwith so many negative ads it usually means theincumbent wins. I’m not surprised by theBishop allegations of pay to play but electedofficials think they’re above the law.
Charles Bishop(No relation to Tim Bishop) I think that it’sdefinitely going to be a very tight race. It mayeven go to a vote count again like it did in thelast election. That wouldn’t surprise me at all.
Katerina MatalovaI’ve been doing my research but I’m not surewho I’m voting for yet. As far as the Fleming,LaValle race, the one thing I don’t like is when apolitician stays too long in power. And I kind oflike Fleming. But the Altschuler guy. No.
Suzanne HenningWe’re definitely Bishop supporters. So that’swho we’ll be voting for on Tuesday. I’m aDemocrat so the choice in the Fleming vs.LaValle race is Fleming.

Woman Killed in StormIt’s believed the surging sea
claimed the life of 52-year-old Edith “Deet” Wright. Her body washed up on Georgica Beach and was discovered by a passerby on the morning of October 30.
Her family reported the Montauk woman missing the prior night at around 9:30, just as Super Storm Sandy was peaking. Police said she had taken her dog for a walk along the ocean in Montauk.
By last Wednesday morning, community members galvanized to offer support for Wright’s two daughters Kiah, 23, and Laini, 18. A benefit was held at 668 Gig Shack on Main Street in Montauk, and a memorial held last Saturday
drew a crowd of supporters. Wright, who lost her husband several years ago, worked as a
waitress at The Dock and was a teacher’s aide in Montauk School. Another fundraiser will reportedly be held at Gurney’s Inn on
November 15 between 7 and 9 PM. There will be music, food, a Chinese auction and a 50/50 raffle, cash bar. Admission is $10. As of press time, a fund for donations was in the process of being set up by the daughters’ attorney.

renourishment project, a $24 million project the town has been reviewing for months, will change to meet the new needs of the dune line after Sandy.
“When it comes to dredging the inlet, the whole area will be reassessed,” Shea said.
Last week, town officials toured the East End’s devastated areas.
During Thursday’s work session, photos taken by the supervisor during an aerial survey with the Air National Guard 106th Rescue Wing were shown, exposing severe overwashes across Dune Road as well as properties in Water Mill and Sagaponack.
According to photos taken by Town Planning and Development Administrator Kyle Collins, storm waves washed out nearly 50 feet
of dunes and blew out first floor windows of oceanfront homes, leaving them to stand on nothing but pilings. Collins added that homeowners could have sand trucked in to sustain their homes, as long as the structure itself was inspected and deemed sound.
“This was a geography changing event,” Zappone said. “This event was that significant.”
Semlear said when reconstituting the dune line does happen “it will be just a shadow of what it was before. It’s as flat as the floor in this room. It’s gone.”
The supervisor noted getting things back to normal will take time, but said the East End fared a lot better than residents further west on the island.
S tony Brook Univers i t y ’ s Southampton campus was housing New York State Troopers, with all necessary essentials being supplied to the troopers, as of Friday afternoon. The campus is
also providing shelter and relief accommodations for emergency utility workers as needed.
“We are going to maintain our state of emergency for the next 30 days issued to us from the county,”
the supervisor said. “The town is here to help, but we do ask for your patience. We are here to do whatever we can.”

MontaukFlag Ceremony
T h e M o n t a u k P l a y h o u s e Community Center Foundation will hold its 6th Annual Flag Ceremony in honor of our veterans on Monday at the Montauk Playhouse Community Center at 240 Edgemere Street. The ceremony will begin at 10 AM at the Suzanne Koch Gosman Flagpole
Garden at the center and will feature the singing of patriotic songs led by Lori Hubbard. Coffee and treats will be served following the ceremony in the Senior Nutrition Center Dining Room at the Center. Veterans, as well as the entire community, are invited to attend this ceremony. Boy and Girl Scout troops will be on hand to honor our heroes.
Lake MontaukOrganizers said the fall cleanup
of Lake Montauk was a success last Saturday. Twelve very large bags of garbage were gathered by 10 local school kids and six adults on the lake’s coastline between Snug Harbor Motel & Marina and Star Island Yacht Club. The junk included lots of plastic and Styrofoam. A car fender was dragged and tossed and a large trellis was moved into the Snug Harbor dumpster. Buckets, fishing tackle plus a full container of motor oil rounded out the mix. However, the most interesting item was a message in a bottle from an upstate location. When the phone number was called it was reported disconnected.
The cleanup was the first sponsored by the Lake Montauk Technical Committee and the Town of East Hampton. More cleanups are planned for the future. Snug Harbor Motel & Marina hosted the event.
Fishing Film TomorrowThe Salt of the Sea, A documentary
film about fishing, will be shown tomorrow at the Montauk Movie Theatre at 7 PM. The producer, Peter Garber, will show his film that focuses on the unique personalities, politics, and dangers of ground fishing. Admission if free. Garber will be on hand to introduce the film and answer questions afterward. The film features local commercial fishermen.
Darenberg HonoredThe Montauk Chamber of
Commerce hosts its end of season gala at East by Northeast on Edgemere Street on Friday from 6:30 to 11 PM. Person of the year Carl Darenberg will be honored, roasted and toasted.

Throughout the day Monday Melissa Berman was one of the point people on East End Cares. On Monday night she posted about the mission to the Francis de Salle School in Rockaway underway as The Independent went to press yesterday.
“We will be landing at La Salle school where we will be helping to move out un-needed supplies and re-stage for possible shelter space. There is a clinic on site too. We will also be out in teams cleaning up and moving what needs to be moved, distributing our meals to hungry people and whatever else pops up (and it will!).
“Mostly we will be sharing our collective love and representing our East End. Thank you to everyone from every community out here - massive amount accomplished in record time. We now have somewhat of an infrastructure going to support projects in other places as needed- we have collections centers and a bank of beautiful volunteers. “

ObituaryFrances Ferrari, 89
Frances Ferrari, 89, passed away peacefully in her home in East Hampton, N.Y. on October 26, 2012.
Born in Hackensack, N.J., on July 15, 1923, to Anthony and Rose (Urato) Lucente, Frances graduated from Hackensack High School in 1941. She spent her childhood summers with relatives on the old Peach Tree Farm in East Hampton. She was a hairdresser with her father and had her own beauty salon in Paterson for a number of years.
Frances was the last of the nice people, a selfless treasure who took care of everyone and was only satisfied when everyone around her was happy. She knew how to nurture a family, from her husband, children and grandchildren to her many cousins, nieces and nephews. Frances was a loving, happy and caring woman who cherished family above everything.
Whether it was a large family holiday dinner or chicken soup for an after-school treat, Frances cooked splendid Italian food for every occasion. With every meal
she cooked for her family, with every day that she watched over us, Frances ensured a better future for every member of her family.
While her children will always grieve her loss, they feel privileged to have wonderful memories of such a special mother.
Frances was preceded in death by her husband, Joseph, whom she married in 1946. She is survived by her brother Jack Lucente of East Hampton, N.Y.; son Cosimo (Guadalupe) Ferrari of Malone, N.Y.; daughters Joanne (Anthony) Griffo of North Haledon, N.J.; Rosemarie Ferrari of East Hampton, N.Y.; and Annette (Ruben) Romero of North Haledon, N.J.; three grandchildren, Steven Ferrari of Queens, N.Y.; Jessica (Rodney) Ferrari-Smith of Chicago, IL.; and Juliana (Ryan King) Griffo of Culver City, CA.; and one great-grandchild, Jolie Smith.
Visitation will be from 2 to 4 PM and 7 to 9 PM October 28 at Yardley & Pino in East Hampton. Funeral is scheduled for 10 AM October 29 at Most Holy Trinity R.C. Church in East Hampton, with interment to follow.
Martin Benjamin Rubenstein, 86
Marty Rubenstein, a beloved figure in East Hampton Village and a noted sports enthusiast and poker player, died Sunday at Southampton Hospital. He had been suffering from bone cancer.
Rubens t e in was bo rn in Manhattan on May 18, 1926 the son of Samuel Rubenstein and the former Jenny Muirstein.
He grew up in Harlem an avid Giants fan, and shined shoes to earn enough money to see the baseball team at the nearby Polo Grounds. He once hitched a ride on Babe Ruth’s car, making him a local legend among the other kids.
Young Martin spent a fair amount of time on the streets – his siblings were much older. Growing up in Irish Harlem, his nickname was Mo. “The Irish protected him when anti-Semitism was prevalent,” his wife related.
He left high school at age 17 to join the U.S. Navy and served in the Seabees during World War II. Stationed in Okinawa, he taught baseball to the POWs there. He would continue to coach informally for most of the rest of his life. After the war he lived in Culver City, CA working as a grip for MGM, where he made the acquaintance of Liz Taylor.
He married Lona Flam in 1956, a former U.S. table tennis champion, after meeting her at a ping pong tournament in New York. “He hustled me. He said he could beat me and he did --and he won a date,” Lona Rubenstein said.
In 1965 the pair migrated to East Hampton. (Lona Rubenstein later chronicled the era in her fictional novel, From Away.) They raised three children, all of whom survive: David, of Laguna Beach CA, Amy Ruhle, of Montauk, and Scott, who is the proprietor of East Hampton Indoor Tennis.
His wife recalled that in 1968, before East Hampton had a junior high football program, Marty
initiated and coached “pick-up” football team, “The Rubenstein Team.” The youngsters played without equipment but won all their games.
Many of the members of the team went on to star for East Hampton High School including Billy McKee, David Dixon, Peter Bistrian, Henry Mund Jr., Frank McGuire, Kevin Cullum; Holmberg Brothers, Johnny Gale, David Rubenstein, and Scott Rubenstein.
Marty was a winner. He coached the local little league all-star team and co-hosted the Biddy League basketball team with Steve Marley. The team pulled off a huge upset and, as regional, went to New Orleans with Coach Ed Petrie to compete: future Bonacker legends like Ed Petrie Jr., Scott Rubenstein, Kenny Carter and Jerome Jefferson were among those who played on the team.
A former taxi driver in the city, Marty served as a driver for Speaker and Minority Assembly Minority Leader Perry B. Duryea Jr. in the seventies.
“My mother lent him the money to buy a [taxi] medallion in the city,” his wife recalled. In typical Rubenstein style, he bluffed his way into the cab. “He didn’t know how to drive – he never drove in his life,” Lona Rubenstein recalled.
His competitive nature made him a natural card player. For decades he played with authors, police chiefs, politicians, playwrights, and fellow card enthusiasts. He won most of the time and, his wife recalled, the “losers loved playing with him. He was just that kind of guy. Sports were his life. He was a great athlete. He followed all the local games. He was Bonac’s biggest fan.”
Marty was not only a presence at local sporting events, he was a regular visitor to the local supermarkets over the years and befriended many of the workers. Customers would chat with him in the aisles, usually about sports.
In addition to his wife and children he is survived by his grandchildren: Matt, Brian, Rebecca and David.
His sisters Ruth Mendelsohn and Mildred Newman, predeceased him. Newman was the author of the huge bestseller, how To Be your Own Best Friend.
There will be a wake at Yardley & Pino in East Hampton Friday from 2 to 4 PM and from 7 to 9 PM. The family suggests contributions in his honor be made to Wounded Warriors and the Animal Rescue Fund.

After taking a brief respite cour-tesy of Hurricane Sandy the Suffolk County High School football playoffs begin this weekend.
In Division III, Westhampton, the third seed, gets Comsewogue (6) at home Friday at 6 PM. The Hurricanes were 5-3 during the regular season; defending Long Island champion Sayville, undefeated this season, is the number one seed. The winner plays November 16 against either Kings Park or Huntington.
In the Division II, tournament Riv-erhead’s grueling schedule earned the Blue Wave a number two seed. The locals will get Walt Whitman (4-4) at home Saturday afternoon on the North Fork at 1 PM. The Wave finished 6-2, and one of those losses came against undefeated West Islip, the number one seed. The two teams are on a collision course for a November 16 rematch.
East Hampton earned a berth on the Division IV playoffs with an upset over Mercy (6-2) in the season finale. That’s the good news. The
Football Playoffs Begin bad news is the Bonackers travel to Babylon Saturday for a 1 PM affair with the Panthers, who are 8-8 and have their sights set on a county title. The winner of the game will likely play Mount Sinai.
Mercy also made it in, but the loss to Bonac likely cost the Mon-archs a home game – as it is, they come down Flanders Road Saturday to Hampton Bays for a 1 PM game. The Baymen were 6-2. The winner will face the survivor of the Stony Brook versus Shoreham Wading River game.

The Brooklyn Nets began their inaugural season over the weekend with a 107-100 win over the Toronto Raptors in the brand spanking new Barclays Center. They are the first major sports team to call Brooklyn home since the Dodgers left in 1957. Moving from New Jersey to Brooklyn gives the franchise a unique opportunity to lure back some of the fans they left in Long Island in the summer of 1977, and hopefully pick up many new fans.
The Nets have struggled the most of the three major sports leagues and their NY area franchises. Playing in an isolated locale in the swamps of New Jersey didn’t help the team develop an identity. They suffered through multiple ownerships with varying degrees of commitment over the years, and played in the shadow of Madison Square Garden and the Knicks.
The Jason Kidd era brought a period of respectability to the franchise with back-to-back NBA
Brooklyn gives Hope Finals runs. But once Kidd left, the franchise again struggled with its relevancy.
Brooklyn seems like a perfect fit, with its renaissance as a hipster mecca. Add to that an impressive, new arena and the presence of limited partner, Jay-Z as the promotional face of the franchise and the Nets already have more of an identity than they developed in their 30-plus years in New Jersey.
The Nets will never be the Knicks, but they put together a nice offseason to make a statement in year number one.
The key to the entire franchise was keeping Deron Williams. Not only is he a great point guard, but also he’s a great leader for the franchise; clean-cut, marketable, and stays out of trouble. Had the Nets lost him to the Dallas Mavericks, Brooklyn might have started off as a bust.
The trade for Joe Johnson was a post-Dwight Howard attempt to
bring in another star alongside Williams. Unfortunately, Johnson is a not an elite player. He’s more of a volume scorer than a player that can help the Nets gets through the Miami Heat.
Gerald Wallace was resigned for $40 million over four years. The Nets won’t like the final couple years of that deal.
Brook Lopez was also resigned for four years and $60 million. He’ll need to prove he’s tougher and a better rebounder to be a legitimate center on a championship contender.
The good news about all the pieces surrounding Deron Williams is that D-Will will make each of them better. There’s no point guard in the league I’d rather have running the team. As a pass-first, defensive oriented player, Williams gives the Nets instant credibility to compete with the Knicks.
The Nets aren’t title contenders, but they don’t have to be. This team needs to dig out of its recent slump and be a team that can earn a playoff spot.
The Knicks and Nets opener against each other was postponed to November 26 because of Hurricane Sandy. When these two square off, it’ll be the old guard versus the new. In basketball, the Knicks have owned the region, but that Monday night could be the first step toward changing that.
Will basketball fans under 30 begin drawing towards the new faces in town? Those fans don’t remember Red Holzman and Earl “The Pearl” Monroe. To them, Walt Frazier is the TV guy with goofy suits who acts in “Just for Men” commercials and rhymes phrases during Knick games. However, with a world-class arena and some top-flight talent, the Brooklyn Nets have a buzz they could never generate in New Jersey. Hopefully, they generate the kind of success that will cause East End residents to make the trip to see some good, old-fashioned hoops.
