Survivors said she loved living in Southampton, where she enjoyed going to the beach, walking around Agawam Lake, strolling through Morton Wildlife Refuge, and people-watching from her Jobs Lane apartment window located over the Boot Tree. Most of all she enjoyed spending time with family. She spent her last four years residing in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey.

Many of these communities hoped that their military support would ensure recognition of their sovereignty and protection of their lands. Instead, ... by Tom Clavin

Will Governor Kathy Hochul sign, or again veto, a bill to protect horseshoe crabs that again passed by large majorities in the State Legislature earlier this year? Hochul vetoed the same bill last year. She claimed then that the Horseshoe Crab Protection Act was “well intentioned,” but their management should best be left with the state’s Department of Environmental Conservation. She said the DEC has “significant rules and regulations regarding commercial and recreational fishing in the state.” It currently has an annual quota of 150,000 horseshoe crabs that can be taken. Environmentalists have been actively calling on Hochul to sign ... by Karl Grossman
