Move It Back

I am writing in opposition to Joan Tutt’s endorsement of S-8731, which would keep the windmill locked away on the campus of Stony Brook Southampton [“Windmill News,” Letters, June 26]. There are many reasons for its return to the village where it was built on Windmill Lane. It served as an economic resource for local farmers to mill corn and wheat. The mill was then relocated to its present site to continue commercial milling operations. Several other commercial enterprises used it until the 1898 construction of Grosvenor Atterbury’s home for the Claflin family, where it was then used as a ... by Staff Writer

The exhibition will highlight works from more than 50 artists, whose work ranges from paintings in oil, acrylic, watercolors and pastels, and photography, which ... by Staff Writer

Finger Pointing

Democrats appear oblivious to a national debt challenge that has become too serious to ignore. The COVID epidemic triggered massive relief spending, and then the Biden administration added trillions more, supposedly for infrastructure and inflation reduction, that turned out to be buckets of borrowed money used poorly. We have developed spending habits that we can no longer afford. The Trump approach at first hoped to find obvious waste, fraud and abuse, but DOGE, unfortunately, could not cure our spending problem alone. Republicans currently find themselves alone in slowing the runaway expansion of government and our national debt. Their approach is ... by Staff Writer

Just Chill

Welcome to summer 2025 in the Hamptons, one of the most beautiful places in the country. As a resident of Bridgehampton for the past 25 years, I’d like to offer a few thoughts on how we can all enjoy this special place to the fullest, while helping others do the same: 1. Chill. It still surprises me how many people seem to be in a rush. One of the main reasons to be here is to unwind, no? So, please, take a breath. Slow down. Enjoy. 2. Do everything slowly. Eat slowly. Shop slowly. Move slowly. Wake up a few ... by Staff Writer

Humbling Honor

I am writing this letter to express my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to several individuals and organizations for their kind acknowledgment of my many years of public service to the East End communities. As many know at this point, in May, after 17 years, I retired from my position as vice president of Community and Government Relations at Stony Brook Southampton Hospital. That chapter of my life began in 2008, after six years of serving as the Southampton Town deputy supervisor. During my tenure at the hospital, I also served as the chair of the Southampton Town Public Safety Commission, ... by Staff Writer

Are You OK?

All leaders, especially political leaders, make decisions consistent with their own belief system and ideology. However, our current president is so pathologically self-absorbed that his personality completely dominates his presidency and his policies. His executive orders are not a statement of ideology — they are purely Trump. Donald Trump’s life history is the opposite of philanthropic. Abandoning USAID, “Alligator Alcatraz,” and choosing the most dismal and dangerous places in the world for “detainees” reflect his heartless nature. It is demonstrated daily by his name-calling and the degradation of those who oppose him. Trump has never lived by the laws, or ... by Staff Writer

Developed with input from a dedicated committee of local men, the event reflects the voices, needs, and lived experiences of those the center seeks to serve.

Apollo-Soyuz Is Topic of Hamptons Observatory Virtual Lecture

The Hamptons Observatory will present a free virtual lecture, “Apollo-Soyuz: The Mission & the Astronauts,” on Thursday, July 17, at 7 p.m. Registration is required to attend. While many consider the International Space Station the start of global cooperation in space, the first true international partnership occurred much earlier: the Apollo-Soyuz Test Project. This groundbreaking 1975 mission marked the first joint human spaceflight between the United States and the Soviet Union, and is widely viewed as a symbolic step toward Cold War détente. This 50th anniversary presentation will be led by Andy Poniros, a longtime NASA volunteer and NASA/JPL Solar ... by Staff Writer
