About ARF Hamptons:
Since 1974, ARF Hamptons has provided care and sanctuary for homeless cats and dogs until loving homes can be found. ARF is a leading animal rescue and adoption center on Long Island. In addition to its rescue and adoption program, ARF operates a pet food pantry, free spay/neuter clinics for feral cats, and year-round dog training and socialization classes.
About Operation Cat:
Through a vast network of volunteers Operation Cat (Op Cat) humanely reduces the growing number and needless suffering of homeless, feral and stray cats by using an effective trap/neuter/return strategy (TNR). Volunteer caretakers provide food, water and shelter for over 1,000 cat colonies, ranging in size from two to thirty cats. They trap the cats, bring them to the Adoption Center where they are altered and vaccinated, and then release them back to their colony. One of the cat’s ears is notched to identify it as an altered cat so it is not mistakenly trapped again. Since the program’s inception in 1997, over 35,000 feral cats from Speonk to Montauk and most recently Brookhaven township have been spayed/neutered and vaccinated.
ARF’s Op Cat program offers free spay/neuter surgeries for free-roaming cats trapped in the Towns of East Hampton, Southampton, Shelter Island and Brookhaven.
EARTH DAY
90 percent cleaner heavy‐duty highway diesel engines and fuel. Earth Day 1970 made it clear that we could summon the public support, the energy, and commitment to save our envi‐ronment. And while the struggle is far from over, we have made substantial progress. In the first ten years since 1970, much of the basic legislation needed to protect the environment had been enacted into law:
the Clean Air Act,
• the Water Quality Improvement Act,
• the Water Pollution and Control Act Amendments,
• the Resource Recovery Act,
• the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act,
• the Toxic Substances Control Act,
• the Occupational Safety and Health Act,
• the Federal Environmental Pesticide Control Act,
• the Endangered Species Act,
• the Safe Drinking Water Act,
• the Federal Land Policy and Management Act, and
•
• the Surface Mining Control and Reclamation Act.
An American conservation movement existed long before the first Earth Day. See the special presentation Documentary Chro‐nology of Selected Events in the Development of the American Conservation Movement in the collection The Evolution of the Conservation Movement, 1850‐1920, to learn about earlier mile‐stones in U.S. efforts to preserve and protect the Earth. These ef‐forts include the designation of some of America’s most majestic national parks such as Mt. Rainier, Yosemite, Acadia, and the Grand Canyon in addition to the creation of the National Park Service. John Burroughs, John Muir, and Luis Agassiz Fuertes (at the outset of his career as the nation’s most notable ornitho‐logical painter since Audubon) were among the scientists, nat‐uralists, and artists who produced an album documenting the 1899 Harriman Alaska Expedition with hand‐written notes, typed documents, photographs, drawings, and maps. As such, they can be considered political and cultural progenitors of Earth Day. See also the Albert K. Fisher Papers—Fisher was a member of the Harriman Expedition. The Harriman Alaska Ex‐pedition 1899 photographic album, compiled by Fisher, is in‐cluded in Meeting of Frontiers, an international collaboration devoted to the theme of the exploration and settlement of the American West, the parallel exploration and settlement of Si‐beria and the Russian Far East, and the meeting of the Russian‐American frontier in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest.

A poem by Lawrence Spiro
I am enclosed in six walls - l can’t feel it
The culpable containment—no, I can’t patiently wait all because —not to crawl like a bug
Time, yeah it’s time--It’s too late to…. to flap and move out—I can’t find it. of the seven walls—I’m so lost
I need to sleep—You’re not doing it!
She says hi to me—who are you, where the lilacs are so fragrant—another inch closer and your dead.
Opened wet and inviting-rage, rage against the sight Come in! welcome.—you’re not real I can’t leave—there are too many walls
My neck stiffens No feeling No thought No confusion No anger
Only madness. Quem deus perdere vult, prius dementat
BRAIN WAVES WITH DEBRA ROSE
The Art of the Apology
"A stiff apology is a second insult." — G.K. Chesterton
There is a useful maxim; tell the complete truth faster. This can be especially helpful if you made a so‐cial faux pau or have been withholding information. This also applies to apologizing when you have made a mistake. The goal is to cultivate the reflex to say you are sorry before any more harm can be done. It will also keep your relationships stronger if they are grounded in authenticity.
Quality of the Repair
We may underestimate how powerful an apology can be, especially if we are too focused on our own missteps. Letting the other person (or people) know you recognize what damage resulted in something you have done shows empathy, as well as communicating how you will work to not let it happen again. Often something cannot be repaired or undone but to ac‐knowledge that you will try to be more attentive in the future is essential.
Guilt
It’s easy to feel guilty when causing hurt, followed by embarrassment in our gaffe. Guilt can signal learn‐ing what not to repeat; but if we hold onto guilt for too long, we are punishing ourselves rather than using the
And…
I will write of darkness, Tenebrous air that fills the inner and shrouds the outer limits.
Interested? Please continue.
I was alone. Are you alone?
You’re not alone?
Then there is no need to continue.
I groped and pressed against the wall
I once let go.
No, do not let go
The fear...
Reach, claw the wall for the little switch.
Clutch it. Flip it.
Feel the flash flush against the foil of darkness, scintillate and penetrate.
Blink into countless broken tears and observe the specter of the wretch you were. Now do what I did.
Push the arch of your mouth up, count, then stop. No need to continue.
Santa Monica
by Ethan Bell
Golden waves kiss sunlit sand
A quiet breeze drift soft and grand
Seagulls cry in endless blue
As tides hum songs both old & true
Footprints fade where people roam the ocean
Feels like natures home with every splash and salted air
The beach reminds us just to be there
lesson in the future. It’s not letting yourself off the hook to move on, as it becomes self‐serving to hold on. Throughout our lives, mistakes are made to help us grow, and without failures we are not trying and not on a path to succeeding.
Containment
A mistake doesn’t mean you are a bad person, it means you made a poor choice. Flip the scenario; someone hurts us, we focus on the hurt while that per‐son may focus on their intention that was not well re‐ceived. How validating it would be if that person explains how they handled something badly rather than tell you that you their actions the ‘wrong way?’
Over apologizing
Are you a people‐pleaser? Are you just trying to keep the peace? Like cursing too often, the impact of your words starts to feel meaningless. If you are apol‐ogizing more than you need to you can be missing the chance to have a more productive interaction in the future (raise your hand if you are that person that someone bumps into and YOU apologize)?
Apologizes do not have to be scripted, they should be offered early, and concise. Justifications for your actions and deflecting that they were ‘misinterpreted’ are going to sabotage attempts of sincerity. And like all we learn, it gets easier with practice. And like the truth, extend the complete apology faster.

Pristine Lake Montauk Waterfront Land Located on a beautiful stretch of Lake Montauk where the views are wide and the beach is sandy, 329 East Lake Drive sets the bar for buildable lakefront land. The 0.87-acre upland portion of the property spans over 260 feet from the road, where elevation is highest, down to the water where 135 feet of shoreline forms a rare private sandy beach. The southwest-facing building envelope is well positioned to enjoy daily sunsets and summer breezes off the lake. It allows for the construction of a nearly 4,000 square-foot house plus an additional lower level, garage, pool and accessory structure - all with the potential for ground-level water views. Whether you're mooring a boat on your own acre of lake bottom, launching a kayak or paddleboard from your private shoreline, 329 East Lake Drive offers the full experience of waterfront living in one of Montauk's most picturesque settings. The property is three minutes to Gin Beach, six minutes to the ocean and 100 feet from more than 860 contigu-
ous acres of preserved County land containing Big Reed Pond and miles of trails and protected coastline. Contact: Peter Moore Jr. / Phone: 631807-4635 / Price: $3,995,000 / Web ID# 924715
