The Barrington High School
track and field teams claimed
number one spots in three events
last week at the state championship meet.
The boys’ and girls’ events took
place at the Providence Career
and Technical Academy on Saturday, Feb. 15 with the Barrington
girls’ team taking fourth place
among 25 high school teams, and
the boys’ team finishing seventh
among 19 schools.
Abigail Livingston took home
two first place medals for her performance in the 600 meter race in
a winning time of 1:36.05, then as
part of the 4x800 relay team with
Megan Verner-Crist, Julianna
Portelli and Julia Zitzmann, who

Not sure how Barrington teachers feel about the Common Core
State Standards and PARCC
assessments?
You’re not alone.
During the last couple months,
school administrators and officials from the Rhode Island
Department of Education have
offered their opinions about the
new standards and assessment
tool.
Some, including four of the five
Barrington School Committee
members, have voiced clear support while others, such as committee member Scott Fuller and a
group of local parents, stand in
opposition.
Overlooked during the recent
discussion, however, has been the
voice of the Barrington public
school teacher.
The Barrington Times reached
out to a handful of local teachers
and asked them one basic question: “How do you feel about the
Common Core State Standards
and PARCC assessments?”
Here is what they had to say:
■ Teacher 1 — “I support the
(CCSS). They are far more focused
than the previous Grade
Level/Span
Expectations
(GLE/GSE) with which teachers
were asked to work and this is
helpful in constructing curriculum and instruction--i.e., it’s easier to ‘hit’ a target that is specific
and clear. One of the misunderstandings I hear from opponents
of the standards is that they are
somehow a ‘curriculum’ as well.

Local family searching
for Rumble
A five-year-old dog named Rumble went missing in the area of
Lincoln Avenue and County Road
on Friday night. The Chekal family
said the dog is a mix — part
bichon frise and part shih tzu. It
is white and weighs about 15
pounds. The family and others
conducted an extensive search for
the dog after it went missing, but
have been unable to locate it. One
person who was searching for
Rumble said he saw someone
stop their car on County Road; he
was not sure if that person picked
up the dog. Rumble was wearing
a tag with the owners’ phone
number on it and has been
microchipped. Anyone with information about Rumble can call
246-1554.

National Athletic Trainers’
Association honors high
school’s efforts to keep
athletes safe
BY JOSH BICKFORD
[email protected]
Barrington High School earned
this year’s National Athletic Trainers’ Association Safe Sports School
Award, which recognizes the
school’s efforts to protect local student-athletes.
At an event on Thursday morning, Feb. 20, different officials,
including Rep. David Cicilline and
Rhode Island Interscholastic
League President Tom Mezzanotte, took turns praising Barrington High School’s athletic department and in particular the efforts
of school officials and the athletic
training staff.
“The standard we judge all our
schools is with Barrington High
School,” said Mr. Mezzanotte.
Barrington High School Director
of Athletics and Student Activities
George Finn was quick to share the
award with the school district’s
current and past leaders. He mentioned some of the people who
served as athletic trainers at the
school in the past, and said that
while it is very nice to be honored
with the award, that’s not the reason for the school’s work in that
area.
“It’s really the right thing to do,”
he said, about keeping studentathletes safe.
Mr. Finn also credited the school
nurse, Grethe Cobb, and team
physicians Dr. Leonard Parker and
Dr. Peter Kriz.
“We are lucky to have a medical
team that supports our athletic
program,” he said. “Our school
nurse and team physicians help
complement our sports medicine
program. We all work collaboratively to provide the best health
care for our student athletes.
“Our coaching staff deserves
credit for this award as well. They
continue to maintain first aid and
CPR certification in addition to
yearly training in concussion management as required by state law.”
Paul A. Ullucci, Jr., the president of Ullucci Sports Medicine &
Physical Therapy, helped present
the award to Mr. Finn and the
entire school. He also highlighted
HR-72, a congressional resolution that supports the creation of
a student-athletes’ bill of rights.
Mr. Ullucci said Rep. Cicilline was
the first congressman in New

Rep. Cicilline credited the work

percent of the reported injuries
with those athletes were concussions.

State sets record straight on duck hunting
DEM officials share
duck hunting details
with council
Want to make a change?
Officials from the Rhode Island
Department of Environmental
Management welcomed residents
to attend hunting regulation
meetings when they are held. For
more information, check the DEM
website at www.dem.ri.gov or
call 222-6800.
BY JOSH BICKFORD
[email protected]
Two men — one in an official
department of environmental
management law enforcement
uniform and the other in street
clothes — did their best to answer
the town council’s questions
regarding duck hunting on Hundred Acre Cove recently.
Council president June Speakman, who lives a couple hundred
yards from the cove, placed the
issue (duck hunting) on the council’s Feb. 3 meeting agenda.
She said she had received a
number of e-mails from residents
who are complaining about or
concerned with duck hunting on
the cove. She opened by telling the
DEM officials that there had been
a picture in the newspaper showing two hunters in the cove with
Hampden Meadows homes seemingly nearby in the background.
That is allowed, said one official.
He added some details: Hunters
could not be within 500 feet of a
dwelling and must be hunting —
actually standing — below the
mean high tide mark.
Ms. Speakman said that a member of the town’s conservation

commission told her that he saw a
hunter standing in the Osamequin Bird Sanctuary while he shot
at waterfowl.
That’s OK as long as he was
below mean high tide, said the
uniformed officer. Below that line
is state property, he added.
Where the hunters are pointing
their guns is also important. All
shots must be directed “seaward,”
the officer said.
Ms. Speakman asked whether
the density of the surrounding
neighborhood could be an issue
for hunting waterfowl.
There are odder places, said the
officials. Then they offered some

information
that
seemed
designed to ease residents’ concerns. For starters, the birdshot
hunters use these days is lighter
than the old lead birdshot. The
new ammunition does not travel
as far. And there are regulations
and hunter safety courses people
must take. Also, the hunting season is limited to a couple months.
The DEM officials also pointed
to a “need” that is filled by
hunters: Waterfowl population
reduction. They specifically cited
the resident Canada goose population. The officials said the goose
population has recently “exploded” and the geese have also figured out that they are safer wad-
dling around the fields at the high
school and middle school than
swimming in the cove.
The law enforcement officials
said hunters also help the local
economy, and that revenue from
hunting is often used to purchase
and preserve open spaces.
“I think it’s great,” said council
member Bill DeWitt, about hunting on the cove. “Just make sure
they’re trained.”
Ms. Speakman spoke of a petition circulating that calls for the
prohibition of waterfowl hunting
in upper Narragansett Bay, but the
DEM officials said that the petition was nothing new. They said
the petition circulates each year.
Barrington councilor Cindy Coyne
said she was concerned about
the mix of September hunters
and boaters on the cove. DEM’s
response: It comes down to
hunters’ education and safety
courses. If they see someone
kayaking in the area, they shouldn’t be shooting in that direction.
Bullet over the fireplace
Barrington councilor Kate Weymouth recalled a close call while
she was growing up on Mathewson Road. She said a bullet came
through her home’s living room
window and lodged itself in a
painting that was hung above the
fireplace.
The officers suggested that people who want to affect a real
change should attend one of
DEM’s meetings that focuses on
hunting regulations.
New Charger, SUV
coming to town
Council approves two
new vehicles for police
department
BY JOSH BICKFORD
[email protected]
Buying and outfitting police
cruisers used to be simpler.
Barrington Police Chief John
LaCross said the local department
— as well as most police forces
across the state — used to purchase the Ford Crown Victoria, a
sturdy eight-cylinder sedan
loaded with leg room and burdened with lousy gas mileage.
“It was a big V8. You’d get 11 to
12 miles per gallon,” he said.
But there was upside: Good
acceleration, a spacious interior
for the police officers, and the
guarantee that equipment from
one old Crown Vic could be easily
transferred to a newly purchased
Crown Vic.
Not anymore.
A few years back, Ford ceased
building the Crown Vic, so departments, including Barrington,
began looking at other vehicles.
The local force first settled on the
Dodge Charger, but more recently
purchased a few Ford Interceptors.
The Chargers and Interceptors
have six-cylinder engines, which
vastly improves their gas efficiency — 18 to 19 miles per gallon
around town, said the chief. But
the new sedans also present the
department with new, unforeseen
challenges.
“The interior space is not as
big,” Chief LaCross said, adding
that leg-room is cut down even
further when the prisoner cage is
installed in the back seat. For the
department’s larger officers, the
loss of key leg room can make for
a less-than-comfortable shift
inside the cruiser.
Officers have also complained
about blind spots in the Interceptors.
Meanwhile, the car manufacturers continue to change the size
of the vehicles’ interiors, which
restricts departments from reusing old cruiser equipment.
“It used to be that you could
interchange the gear,” Chief
LaCross said. “Now we have to

New police equipment purchases are costing local taxpayers
about $17,000 this year. The
department is buying two new
cars — a Ford SUV carrying a
$26,541 price tag and another
$7,606 for new police equipment,
and a Dodge Charger costing
$23,467 and another $9,344 for
equipment.
Chief LaCross approached the
town council at its Feb. 3 meeting
requesting approval for the purchase, which totaled $66,961.03,
and was able to reduce that cost
by $4,000 when he sold two old
cruisers to the Providence Police
Department.
The chief had initially offered
the two cruisers — each had less
than 50,000 miles on them — to
Imperial Municipal Partners, the
dealership which is selling the
police vehicles. But IMP reportedly offered only $1,200 for each car,
so the chief decided to look elsewhere. He ended up speaking to
the fleet manager for the Providence Police Department, who
later checked out the cruisers and
offered Barrington $2,000 for
each.
“We saved the taxpayers
$1,600,” said the chief.
The council approved the
expenditure, and the vehicles
should be arriving in Barrington
in about six weeks.

Opinion
EDITORIAL
Barrington is the
standard for safety
W
e love it when our local teams win, and
we’ve been fortunate to have some very
successful teams over the years. But
more important than the success of the
Barrington teams is the safety of our
local student-athletes, and this past week we learned that
nobody places a higher priority on player safety than Barrington High School and its administrators.
On Thursday morning, Barrington’s director of athletics
and student activities George Finn accepted the National
Athletic Trainers’ Association Safe Sports School Award. It
is the first time a school in Rhode Island has been honored
with the recognition.
On any given day during the school year, hundreds of
boys and girls at Barrington High School are either practicing at or competing in a variety of sports. This winter, students could choose to play basketball, hockey or squash, or
compete in track, swimming, wrestling or gymnastics.
Some sports have multiple teams, such as basketball which
has a varsity and junior varsity. There are a variety of other
sports offered in the fall and more to choose from in the
spring.
The one constant for all the Barrington High School
teams is the priority placed upon safety.
In order for Barrington to earn this prestigious award, it
had to meet a series of criteria — everything from making
sure teams’ equipment was in good shape, to developing
injury and illness prevention strategies, to providing preparticipation physical exams for each and every studentathlete.
The director of the Rhode Island Interscholastic League,
Tom Mezzanotte, offered some succinct praise for Barrington High School during last week’s awards ceremony. Mr.
Mezzanotte said the local school and the folks who keep it
running each and every day have created the “standard” by
which others across the state and the rest of the country
will be judged.
The work carried out by Mr. Finn, his assistants, the
school physicians and nurses, the athletic trainer Whitney
Howe and all the other administrators at the high school
often goes unnoticed by the fans in the bleachers. All they
see are student-athletes having fun and trying to bring
home another state title for the high school. We know that
there’s a bit more happening behind the scenes.
Congratulations, BHS!

It’s time to revisit duck hunting laws
Dear Barrington Town Council:
My family and I are new to Barrington as well as the state of
Rhode Island. We left behind the
hustle and bustle of New York City
to find a better quality of life here
in New England. I must say we are
all adjusting nicely to the beautiful
area here in the Ocean State and
feel fortunate we can view Hundred Acre Cove from our windows.
We look forward to the warmer
weather ahead when we can take
advantage of it and introduce our
children to kayaking.
What we didn’t expect with our
new neighborhood was to wake to
gunshots in the early morning
hours beginning in the fall and
lasting well into winter.
Initially my husband told me I
was mistaken that duck hunters
were hunting right in the cove. He
insisted that the distance is simply
too close to homes and neighborhoods. Several of our neighbors
had already informed me about
the duck hunting and I explained
to him, yes, it is taking place right
outside our door.
Our children freeze when they
hear the gunshots and quickly ask
for an explanation. I have been
brushing it off as nothing at all
which suffices right now for a 3
and a 6 year old. I’ll have to figure
out how I will explain it all one day
soon when my brief answers
aren’t enough.
Recently we had a close
encounter right outside our door.
Early one Saturday morning, two
of our neighbors called to alert us
about a duck that had been shot
and landed on our front lawn.
They were concerned about it disturbing our young children if they
were to discover it on their own.
My husband quickly took care of it
but it left a terrible feeling in my
stomach. What if we had been
outside playing with the children
when this had happened?
In the meantime, I’m not here to
change the laws or cause a riot. I
simply have questions. Being city
folks, we aren’t familiar with how
this duck hunting all works so I
apologize in advance for our lack
of knowledge on the subject.
1. Is there a task force monitoring these duck hunters?
a. Do the hunters have valid
permits?
b. Are they adhering to the daily
limitations on duck totals?
2. Is anyone monitoring the
500-foot proximity law?
3. What is the cost of a duckhunting permit?
4. What is the total annual revenue for duck hunting permits for
the Town of Barrington?
5. What are the town ordi-
nances, if any, on noise pollution?
I have no idea if duck hunting is
a huge income generator for the
Town of Barrington but, if I had to
guess, I would say it’s not.
One argument in defense of
duck hunting that I have heard
several times is that it has been
permitted in Hundred Acre Cove
since the 1700s. From the information I could obtain, the first
census of Barrington was conducted in 1774. The population
was 601 and remained so until
about 1840 as the town gradually
increased in size.
Nowadays, the town population is well over 16,000. Imagine
that! We are still abiding by a law
that was in place for 601 people
while our town population has
increased more than 27 times
since then. 601 people in 8.9
square miles vs. 16,819 in 8.9
square miles.
What we all need to think
about here is just how many residents these gunshots are affecting, not to mention the fear the
sound is instilling on our daily
lives. I know how much I cringe
when I hear them and simply
don’t enjoy starting my day rising
out of bed with such trepidation.

Something perfect about living in Barrington
To the editor:
It seems to me that too many
letters to the editor are nothing
more than just whining about
anything and everything perceived as “not perfect” about living in Barrington.
Well, I’m writing to express grat-
itude for something about living
in Barrington that I think “is perfect.” Recently, a police officer and
four members of the Barrington
Fire Department responded
quickly to my wife’s 9-1-1 call
when I was suddenly stricken with
severe vertigo and a stroke.
Those fine public servants
transported me to The Miriam
Hospital where more medical professionals tested and treated me
just as effectively.

Huddle up team — elbows in
E
leven boys and one little
girl stand in two lines
near the middle of the
basketball court and wait. Well,
some wait. Others wrestle or
push or bump.
They talk and
laugh and grab
each other’s
shirts or step on
their feet.
Josh
This is what secBICKFORD ond-graders do
when they are told to stand still.
I should be happy that they are
still standing in two lines near the
middle of the basketball court
because in a few seconds, in a
very quick blink of an eye, they
could be anywhere. Running
toward the water fountain at the
side of the gym or sprinting into
the corner where the big bouncy
mats are stacked or standing atop
the aluminum bench along the
sideline.
It took four coaches close to
five minutes to round up 12 second-graders and position them in
two lines near the middle of the
court. We hollered and grabbed at
them as they ran past us, dashing
in no specific direction. They
chased bouncing basketballs
across the slippery hardwood and
underneath the row of folding
chairs that parents sit in to watch
the games.
That is why we are here: For a
basketball game.
Two groups, teams, of 7- and 8year-olds are scheduled to play in
another Saturday morning showdown at the YMCA. One group
wears purple uniform t-shirts
while the other wears aquamarine.
Moms, dads, grandparents and
little brothers and sisters watch
the game and cheer and laugh at
the action on the court, but the
real game is on the sideline next
to me. That is where my son has
managed to pull the plastic ring
off his Gatorade bottle — the one
that held the cap in place — and
turn it inside out, revealing a row
of jagged plastic teeth that can be
used to scratch an unsuspecting
coach as he walks past the bench.
The teammates — there are
seven boys “sitting” on the bench
— love it when the coach gets
scratched. They laugh hysterically
and clap their hands and nearly
fall onto the floor in delight. I
have never seen them so happy
about anything, except the time
my 2-year-old daughter ran onto
the court during one of the
games.
There is one folding chair positioned at the end of the bench,
which I incorrectly assume is for
a coach. I sit there for a moment,
then rise up to hi-five a passing
player. When I return to the chair,
beginning to lower myself onto it,
I can hear the squeals of giddiness. I turn around. There are
now four boys fighting for the
chance to sit in the chair that I
had been sitting in, and waiting
for the unsuspecting coach to sit
on them. Why? Why would they
do this? I do not know. They do
not know either.
Back to the bench, I order
them.
A time-out — drink time. Players scramble for their water bottles while one boy runs across the
court and fills a plastic cup with
water from the fountain. They all
dash back to the bench. They
gulp mouthfuls until it spills onto
their shirts or onto the floor or
both. Then the player with the
plastic cup shreds it into pieces
because, well, why not? Then he
hands it to me — well, he points
to the pieces on the floor, which
in his mind is just the same as
handing it to me.
This may be a teaching opportunity but I ignore it. It is best to
move onto something else, like
breakfast.
I ask them what they ate for
breakfast and then lie about what
I ate. I tell them I ate four bags of
Skittles and two bowls of mint
chocolate chip ice cream. They
scream over one another to tell
me that they ate six candy bars
and ten peanut butter cups and
50 sugar packets and then a
whole bowl of sugar. No ten
bowls. A hundred bowls. A million bowls.
One of the boys asks me what
the score is. I lie again. I tell him
we are winning 214 to 3. All the
players pause to comprehend the
numbers and then sprint onto the
floor to look at the electronic clock
and scoreboard. They yell at me
and tell me I lied. I smile and act
surprised.
At the end of the game when
moms and dads are trying to gather their children who are attempting “just one more shot,” I will
occasionally steal the basketball
and dribble it and pull it away
from them just before their fingers
are touch it. They love this. So do I.
Team purple — we are called
the Purple Piglets for reasons I do
not know — gathers together for a
cheer at the end of each game.
Hands in, says one of the coaches. No. That would be too easy.
Feet in. Heads in. Elbows in. That
is how 12 second-graders break a
huddle.
Then they collapse on the floor.
I wait until I get home to collapse.
Town should follow the same rules
To the editor:
I find it difficult as a homeowner who has a sidewalk in front of my
house which is cleared after every storm, reading your article noting
Chief (John) LaCross reminding us to make sure we remove the snow,
and two days after this last storm and now with yesterday’s (Feb. 18) snow,
the sidewalks on public property have not been touched. All around
Hampden Meadows School and down Kent Street are still snow-covered.

Children’s personal information at stake
To the editor:
When Target, Michaels, Neiman
Marcus and others, cannot protect customers from being sabotaged by technology’s darker side,
how do we parents suppose educational data warehouses will be
able to protect our children’s personal identifiers and confidential
records?
(the new public school standards)
deserves a closer look, if only for its
overreaching technological tentacles in pursuit of our families’ personal information.
Statewide Longitudinal Data
Systems were set up in 50 states,
linkable and twin-like, paid for by
federal grants. This year, RI Department of Education received another $4 million federal grant. Our RI
grant agreement states it is using
“data platforms...that enable students, parents, teachers, education
leaders, researchers, community
members, and policy-makers to
directly access the information
that is valuable to their needs.”
Reuters reported in March 2013
about inBloom (another CCSS
related database), “In operation
just three months, the database
already holds files on millions of
children identified by name,
address and sometimes social
security number.”
Wowzers, a provider affiliated
with inBloom boasts, “we generate
hundreds of data points each day
on
each
student.”
(www.inBloom.org/providers)
Might our children’s private
information be up for sale?
The US Dept. of Education
Office of Technology issued a Feb.
2013 report which offered ways to
record and monitor psychological
and affective data on our kids as
part of CCSS. Included, were pictures of devices (pg. 44) used to
record this student information,
including a facial expression camera, posture analysis seat, a pressure mouse, and wireless skin conductor sensor (alternatively, a lie
detector).
The report continues, “While it is

Vasudeva of the Bill & Melinda
Gates Foundation point out that
researchers...are beginning to use
multiple methods to explore how
specific brain activity is correlated
with other cognitive and affective
indicators that are practical to
measure in school settings.”
Seriously?
Ask Polk County, Fla. residents
whose children experienced this
biometric privacy invasion in June
2013 as reported by a Tampa CBS
station, “Parents [were] in shock
after finding out three schools in
Florida had been using iris scans to
collect biometric data about their
children, without their permission.”
“Why is biometric and
personal information
being collected from our
children?”
Not only is information being
extracted from our children,
unaware, users of this private
information can now be widerranging as stated under changes to
section 99.31 of Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA).
These changes, effective Jan. 2012,
allow greater access to students’
personably identifiable information identifiers which include biometric data — fingerprints, retina
and iris patterns, etc. (At a January
RIDE meeting, however, the
spokesperson stated no personal
identifiers would be connected to
student information gleaned.)
“The FERPA changes raise troubling questions, as a small group of
large corporations gain multistate
contracts for the national rollout of
the CCSS and tests,” reported
Wendy Lecker at Stamfordadvocate.com, last May. Further,
“Increasing the number of people
with access to this information
necessarily increases the possibility of breaches.”
Why is biometric and personal
information being collected from
our children and marketed to
strangers? While data mining has a
practical seat at the corporate sales
and marketing table, leave our
children off the menu!
Change and technology, joined
inseparably at the hip, are rapidly
intensifying in the Common Core
technology arena. As parents are
learning more about its many troubling aspects, they are looking
closer — and many don’t like what
they see.

TEACHERS: Barrington educators weigh in on Common Core State Standards
From Page 1
They are not. They certainly influence curriculum and curricula
have been created to address
these standards, but they are not
synonymous. Speaking from the
perspective of a secondary school
teacher, my colleagues and I have
worked together over the last two
years to develop grade-level curricula that reflect the CCSS with
the goal of creating learning path-
“PARCC is just more
high-stakes
standardized testing
which has been
demonstrated to be
adverse to teaching and
learning in numerous
ways.”
ways so our kids can demonstrate
these skills and abilities with
respect to reading, writing, and
speaking and listening. The district and the state have provided
us with strong support and time
to get our heads around the standards, create curricula we feel prepares our kids to meet these standards, and revise this curricula
and our instructional strategies as
we see fit to better serve our kids.
“PARCC is something different.
PARCC is just more high-stakes
standardized testing which has
been demonstrated to be adverse
to teaching and learning in
numerous ways. Additionally, the
mandate for all students to take
the PARCC tests on computers in
2014-2015 creates an undue
financial burden on school dis-
tricts and their communities. I do
not support PARCC, but as an
educator I am in a position to prepare my kids as best I can--using
the curriculum I have helped create--to succeed on it.
“Still, the important thing to
remember is that CCSS and PARCC are related but not the same;
one is a set of standards, the other
is one way to assess what students
know and are able to do with
respect to those standards. The
baby need not be thrown out with
the bathwater.”
■ Teacher 2 — “Katherine Patterson once said at a literary conference I attended that, ‘The Internet is as wide as the ocean but
only one inch deep.’ That pretty
much sums up my opinion of
Common Core and PARCC.”
■ Teacher 3 — “Simply stated I
like the Common Core. It has

dialogs among the teachers in dis-

States.”
trict and across the United States.
We have been using it now for
about three years and the transition from our previous standards
to these was minimal.
“As far as the PARCC goes I really don’t feel qualified to comment.
None of us have actually seen the
test so it is not honestly possible to
measure how it will assess our students and curriculum. We are all
doing our very best, as always, to
meet the needs of our learners
and prepare them for what will
come. The collaboration between
the
grades
and
middle
school/high school has been beneficial for all.”
■ Teacher 4 — “I support the
concept of adopting national educational standards and the Common Core Standards, specifically.
It evens the playing field for students state-wide when all school

districts are held accountable to
the same level of rigor.
“There are several uncertainties
about the PARCC assessment considering we have not yet seen its
implementation. It is a daily challenge to create meaningful lesson
plans that address the elements of
the PARCC test as we understand
them. However, we are currently
using released practice materials
from PARCC in the classroom in
an effort to best prepare our students.”
■ Teacher 5 — “I can’t say much
about PARCC assessments just yet
because we haven’t seen or experienced what they are all about. As
far as the Common Core goes...I
“Bottom line...it’s not as
fun as it used to be.”
think it is a good set of standards
that explains in comprehensible
detail, what we expect students to
know at each grade level. How districts and states go about finding
the curriculum to support the
Common Core standards is completely up to them.
“Bottom line...it’s not as fun as it
used to be. Scripted curriculum
can be implemented by anyone
without a personality, you know
me, I’m not a scripted character. I
think the rigor is good and kids are
rising to the challenge, they’re
doing things that I didn’t think they
could do and thinking at higher
levels, particularly in math and
writing. Will there be growing
pains? Sure, but we will figure it out
as we go.”
■ Teacher 6 — “In terms of the
CCSS, the important thing to
remember is that they are just that:
standards. They do not dictate how
something is taught, when during
the year it is taught, or even how
much time is spent on any given
topic. They simply set an expectation for students by the end of the
year or course. Prior to the Common Core we worked with the
GLE/GSE’s. Those did exactly the
same thing. As far as field testing
“They simply set an
expectation for students
by the end of the year
or course.”
the standards, I am not sure any
standards are really field tested. I
am not sure how exactly that
would be done.
“We have been aligned to the
CCSS for mathematics at BMS for
three years now. There have been
shifts certainly, but we have managed to work through them. In
regards to concern over the appropriateness of the CCSS for the
younger grades, I am not an expert
in that area and would have to
defer to my more knowledgable
colleagues. For us, they seem to be
working fine.
“One of the really nice side benefits of having standards that are
shared by so many teachers across
the country is the availability of
shared knowledge and resources.
At BMS we do not have a textbook
or specific program that we use.
Instead we develop our own materials to help guide our instruction.
The ability to reach out to teachers
all over and have a common agreement on topics taught in a particular grade has been great. Prior to
this, the definition of what is taught
in Algebra I was determined by the
textbook you purchased. It could
vary from state to state, district to
district, or even between schools
within a district. Now, everyone has
the same end goal for their students. By no means will an Algebra
I classroom in one school necessarily look like an Algebra I classroom in another school.
“Teachers need to make decisions about what is best for the students they have in terms of how to
instruct them. Districts write curriculum that determines the order
in which things are taught, along
with suggested materials to help
with implementing content. The
CC does not script anything, it just
sets the end goals.
“The other issue you brought up
is the PARCC assessment. Truthfully I have no opinion on it yet. Standardized tests seem to be a necessary piece of the puzzle in terms of
making sure students are learning
what they need to. However, they
are only one piece of the puzzle.
The PARCC and its counterpart,
the Smarter Balanced Assessment
are what is being developed to
assess the CC. They are not one
and the same. We have seen so little in terms of what the PARCC
assessment will look like for math
that it is impossible to have an
opinion. I have no idea what it will
actually be like when it is finally
written. We should know more this
spring.”
■ Teacher 7 — “I generally think
that CCSS will be better for the US
education system. Everyone more
or less teaching the same topics
and skills from year to year is a
good thing. The emphasis CCSS
places on critical thinking and
problem solving is crucial, as that
is the area where we fall behind the
rest of the world. That being said,
these standards are incredibly rigorous and ambitious. For a district
like Barrington, the change isn’t
dramatic as our standards have
always been rigorous. I guess I
should only speak to the HS math
curriculum, but I suspect that others would agree. I also think the
rollout plan is problematic. This is
not specific to Barrington as everyone is in the same boat. We are
rewriting our HS Math curriculum
to meet CCSS. That assumes the
students coming into the high
school have certain prior knowledge. However, we know they don’t
have that prior knowledge since
Common Core has only just
begun.
“My running joke while we
wrote the new Geometry curriculum last year was that in 9 years,
this will be amazing. Meaning that
once we are getting students who
have been doing CCSS since
“I generally think that
CCSS will be better for
the US education
system.”
kindergarten, we will be able to
truly implement it.
“As for the PARCC assessments, I
think the fact that they are assessing the Math that students are
learning is an improvement over
NECAP. Currently 11th graders
take NECAP math that tests Algebra I, Algebra II and Geometry.
With PARCC, students taking
Geometry will be tested on Geometry, etc. However, as rigorous and
challenging as the NECAP math
test is, PARCC is even more so. To
use either as a graduation requirement is, in my opinion, a mistake.
I don’t think every student in the
US needs to be able to do mathematics at such a high level in order
to get a high school diploma.”
Charge dismissed against
Warren clam-digger
Man agrees to pay $45
court costs; no fine
A trespassing charge lodged
against a Warren man who allegedly cut across private property on
Adams Point in order to dig clams
was dismissed in municipal court
in Barrington last week.
Barrington police had charged
59-year-old Mark Konikowski after
an Adams Point area resident spotted him digging clams along the
shoreline and reported the man
trespassing.
Police investigated the complaint and discovered that while
Mr. Konikowski was free to dig
clams anywhere below the mean
high tide mark, he had illegally
crossed private property in order
to access the beach. Police said
property deeds stated that a path
to the water was a private right of
way and not a public path.
Judge Frank Connor reportedly
agreed to drop the charge in
exchange for Mr. Konikowski’s
promise that he would not trespass
again. The Warren man also agreed
to pay $45 in court costs.
Teen pays fine for incident
A Barrington teenager charged with violating the state’s Social Host
law was ordered to pay a $350 fine and $45 in court costs. In exchange,
the court agreed to dismiss the police charge.
Police had arrested 19-year-old Jared Silk on Friday, Jan. 10. On that
date, officers had been alerted to teenagers carrying alcohol out of a car
parked near Mr. Silk’s residence. Officers responded and spoke to the
homeowner, Mr. Silk’s father, who said his son was hanging out in the
basement with some friends. He said he had no idea the teenagers had
any alcohol with them.
The fine money paid by Mr. Silk will be applied to the BAY Team
awareness program.

Wrestling ‘family’ finishes 16-1
Eagle wrestler excels
despite injuries
[email protected]
Last year, Noah Robey competed in the Rhode Island state
wrestling championships with a
broken femur. On Tuesday, the
285-pound senior competed in
his team’s final meet with a broken and dislocated wrist.
And in both cases, Noah came
away the winner.
The team’s final meet of the
season was at home against the
Mariners, in a scene that was all
too familiar to coach Drew
Genetti. Last year the two nearly
undefeated teams paired off for
that season’s final match. This
year, however, Mr. Genetti was
expecting a different outcome.
“Last year at the 195 weight,
that was the deal-breaker,” he
said of the two teams’ previous
meeting. “I knew it was coming to
this.”
When the Eagles hosted Narragansett High School for the Feb.
18 showdown, both teams came
in with identical 15-1 records.
From the start, the Eagles
struggled against the Mariners in
the lighter weight classes, losing
the first three matches. It wasn’t
until Benjamin Wright came
away with the first Barrington
win that the Eagles began to turn
things around.
But it came down to the heavyweights Max Robey, Quinn
Morvillo and Noah Robey to

boost the Eagles to 16-1.
Down 28-24 with three matches left, Max Robey pinned his
opponent in the third period to
gain a 34-30 lead.
After a match that went into
three overtime periods, Quinn
Morvillo held onto a 34-33 lead
for Barrington, leaving the outcome of the meet up to Noah.
Noah scored the only two
points of the match in the second
period, with his opponent unable
to make an effective move to
counter. At the end of the third
period, those two points held the
win for the Eagles.
“I had him the entire time,”
Noah said after winning the
match. “It was just hard to get
him down with one hand,” he
said.
For Mr. Genetti, the dedication
of his team was more valuable
than the win.
“It’s family that we built around
this place. We’ve built a great tradition.”
With the RI State Championships on March 1, Mr. Genetti
shared his thoughts on the outcome.
“Quinn (Morvillo) locked up
the two-seed. He’s there. He’s got
the potential,” Mr. Genetti said of
placing in the States.
And in the higher weight class,
Mr. Genetti is looking to Noah to
capture the title.

finished with the fastest time of
9:27.86.
For Verner-Crist, winning the
4x800 helped to ease her disappointment after finishing the
1,000 meter run in fourth place.
“I was disappointed because I
got passed right at the finish line,”
she said.
For the Barrington High School
senior, this would be her last run
at the states and performed well
after taking time off from training
due to an injury.
“I felt OK. I’m just excited
because I medaled and ran a PR
(personal record),” said Crist.
In the girls’ 1,000 meter event,
Mary Kate Coogan took third
place in the state, crossing the finish line in a time of 3:01.74, followed by teammates, fourth-place
finisher Crist, and Julianna Portelli who placed ninth.
For the 55 meter dash event,
Brianna Gausland competed in
the preliminary race, taking a 10th
place finish with her time of 7.64.
Due to the number of competitors
in that event, her 10th place finish
did not qualify her for a lane in the
finals, however.
In the 1,500, Marcus Sefranek
placed 12th in the state, while
teammate, Sam Somera finished
15th in the state in the 3,000 meter
event.
Running in the 4x400 relays,
Barrington’s Jake Ray, Aaron Weisberg, Nick Jensen and Tom
Richardson combined their
efforts, finishing in 12th place
with a time of 3:47.52, and Sam
Somera, Marcus Sefranek, Grant
Auber and Max Guerrieri finished
the 4x800 event in 10th place at
8:45.20.
While the boys’ team was in the
running in the 1,500, 3,000, and
relay track events, it was the field
athletes who helped the Eagles to
their seventh place finish, contributing 18 of the 19 points the
team collected.
Already the top high school
weight thrower in the country,
although Adam Kelly didn’t perform his best at the state championship meet, he performed well
enough to claim the best in the
state.
Kelly took first place with a toss
of 74’ 7.5”, more than three feet
shorter than his national record.
Taking fourth place in the same
event was Bobby Colantonio who
threw for 64’ 5.75”. Colantonio is
currently ranked sixth best in the
country for the indoor weight
throw, with a 69’ 3” throw.
Also contributing to the Eagles’
performance in the field event
was Mike Alvernez who threw a
distance of 57’ 4.5”, the 12th farthest in the state meet.
Despite the win in the weight
throw event, and a fourth place
finish in the shot put, Kelly felt
that he could have done much
better at the state championship
meet.
After throwing the winning distance, Kelly’s final throw of the day
was disqualified after it landed in
the protective netting.
“I didn’t think my performance
was that great,” Kelly said after his
events. “I slipped on my delivery.
I’m very happy to win, though.”
Kelly will compete at the New
England Championships in the
shot put event on March 1. In that
competition, Kelly’s best event,
the weight throw, is not competed.
Barrington’s Max Caro also
added a point to the Eagles’ score
at States, clearing 6’ 0” in the high
jump event for a seventh place
finish.
This year, included as an exhibition event for the first time at a
State meet, Barrington’s Jonathan
Cavanagh took first place with his
pole vault of 12-feet. As an exhibition event, no team points were
awarded.

Eagles dominate Portsmouth in boys’ hoops
Corey Daugherty
scores game-high 31
BY JIM MCGAW
[email protected]
Barrington High’s Corey Daugherty scored a game-high 31 points
as the Eagles beat the Portsmouth
Patriots boys’ varsity basketball
team Friday night in convincing
fashion, 67-43.
Portsmouth held tough early on
but the Eagles started putting
some distance between them and
the Patriots shortly before the end
of the first half and never looked
back.
“I thought it was a good win,”
said Barrington head coach
Patrick Sullivan. “Portsmouth is a
very good opponent. They have
very good offensive weapons in
(Cole) Swider, (Brennan) Tierney
and (Colin) Tullson. I thought the
first half was tight as I expected,
and then we pulled away a little
bit in the second half.”
The Patriots got off to a quick 50 lead, with senior guard Tierney
sinking a 3-pointer followed by
freshman forward Swider driving
for a layup. The team put plenty of
pressure on Barrington early on,
but the Eagles skill — and size —
soon began to wear on the home
team.
“(Portsmouth) is not a big team,
but they’re scrappy,” said Mr. Sullivan. “We knew that we’d have to
take advantage of the height on
our end by either getting points in
the paint or offensive rebounds, or
both. I think it was more of the

offensive rebounds. There were a
couple of exchanges in the second
half where we’d get rebound, kick
it out … that was very helpful for
us.”
Patriots head coach Joe Occhi
agreed it was difficult for his team
to overcome the height disadvantage.
“They were just too big for us at
times — not every time — but
we scrapped, we fought,” he said
“It was a 10-point game at halftime, and I thought we had given a
couple of extra opportunities in
the first half to them by not boxing
out as well as we could have. So, I
felt like it could have been closer.
And then Daugherty went off.”
Of his 31 points, the Eagles’
junior guard made three 3-pointers and also hit four out of five free
throws.
“Daugherty’s a hell of a player,
and that is a very good team.
They’re ranked No. 3 in the entire
state,” Mr. Occhi said of Barrington.
Mr. Sullivan said his squad’s
defense was also a key in the victory.
“Our defense in the second half
was very, very good,” he said. “We
really stuck with our game plan
and we were disciplined in terms
of who had the ball and what they
were doing. We did a better job
with our screen defense, we did a
better job rebounding the basketball, and offensively I thought we
were very efficient, for the most
part.”
Also contributing for Barrington
was junior Kevin Mannix with 12
points and senior Matt Rota with
10.
Swider was the high scorer for
the Patriots, with 17 points including three 3-pointers.
Brennan Tierney had 14 points,
including three 3-pointers. Colin
Tullson and Jack Kelley each contributed 4 points.

the night.
After the basket, Maura
instinctively began to run toward
the Portsmouth side of the court
to assume her defense position.
When the buzzer interrupted
play, she looked puzzled, wondering why the game was halted.
Those who anticipated the
moment quickly unfurled a banner that congratulated her on
achievement, as her mother carried balloons in the shape of 1-00-0 across the court. Maura was
swarmed by her teammates as
she realized what just occurred,
she wiped tears of excitement
from her eyes.
“I thought it was a timeout at
first,” she said. “I’m definitely
excited.”
Only six other basketball players have reached the 1,000 point
mark while playing at Barrington
High School, said Mr. Lenz.
“Maura is the first girl to get
1,000 points playing all four
years in Division 1,” he said.
“Maura is an exceptional athlete
and more importantly, a wonderful person. She deserves this and
I am proud of her representation
of Barrington girls’ basketball.”
In the fall, Maura Kelty signed
her letter of intent to attend
Caldwell College on a basketball
scholarship. On Monday morning, Mr. Lenz received some other news regarding the high
school standout.
She “has been nominated for
Gatorade Player of the Year. The
final decision on the award will
come at the end of March,” Mr.
Lenz said.
Eagles win
The win over Portsmouth was
hard fought.
“Our strategy was to not let
Sarah Middleton shoot from the
outside, and block Kelty to the
right,” Mr. Glover said.
The strategy worked, holding
Middleton to an 8-point game,
but leaving other opportunities
open for Grace Coutu to score 11
and Grace Restituyo to score 8.
“They have the best defense in
the division,” Mr. Lenz said of the
Portsmouth team.
The win put the Eagles at 12-2
in D-I Central, with four games
remaining on their regular
schedule. The Eagles traveled to
St. Mary-Bay View on Tuesday
and will host Exeter/West
Greenwich on Friday, Feb. 28 at 7

David J. Tupaj
Despite problems, lived with
love and compassion
David James Tupaj, 51, the
beloved son of David and Alice
Tupaj, passed away Friday, Feb.
21, 2014 at Kent County Hospital
in Warwick.
Besides his parents, David is
survived by the love of his life, his
son, Nicholas of
Barrington, and
his siblings and
their spouses,
whom
he
admired greatly,
Gregory
(Lori), of San
Diego,
Calif.
and
Sandra
(Tom) Lozeau
of Putnam, Conn. He also leaves
many aunts, uncles and cousins
who loved him dearly. David was
the grandson of the late Maurice
and Adela Landry and Stanley and
Mildred Tupaj.
A lifelong resident of Warren,
David was born March 23, 1962.
Despite a lifelong struggle with
schizophrenia and drug addiction, David had many virtues for
which he will be remembered. A
deep and abiding faith in God
enabled him to possess a love of
life and a tender, compassionate
spirit. Quick to praise, kind to
everyone and generous in heart,
David never judged anyone. He
cherished his freedom and was
content with his lot in life.
The family owes a tremendous
debt of gratitude to Riverwood

there. David was loved, cared for
and nurtured by the entire staff,
especially Jack, over many years.
They accepted David for who he
was and brought out the best in
him. In addition, the family
would like to acknowledge the
shelter in which he had recently
been staying, Harrington Hall in
Cranston. The staff provided a
‘home’ for David where he felt
liked and was comfortable.
Finally, the family is grateful for
the countless acts of kindness
shown to David by the community, from Bristol to Warwick,
throughout his life, and the
many soup kitchens which kept
him well-fed.

Dolphins

very fast, plus dolphins swim
in cold or warm water. Furthermore they have off white to
light gray bellies. Plus they can
swim backwards. To sum up,
they can can also communicate.

Dolphins are fast swimmers.
Dolphins can communicate
with each other. Also, dolphins
can flop into the water. Dolphins have flippers they use to
swim. Dolphins have grayish
blue skin and they swim in
warm water.
Desserts
BY KENDAL BAZERMAN
I love all different desserts,
one of them is Oreo ice cream
pie. You have to crush the Oreos to make it. Another one is
cake. Most cakes have frosting.
There are also cookies and
there are many types. Also, I
like ice cream. Ice cream is
always cold. I love chocolate.
Chocolate melts in hot places.
Finally, I like blueberry
muffins, they are baked. To
sum up, I have a lot of favorite
desserts.
Lots of kids play sports in the
spring and summer. To get ready
for these sports we have some
solutions to being rusty and ways
to get fit for these sports. To stay
fit by walking and running is
good. You can do this by playing
outside with pets, walking to the
bus stop, and going to the YMCA
to work out. Stay active by playing sports you can do horseback
riding, indoor soccer and lacrosse,
karate, basketball, rock spot
climbing, swimming, and many
more. Everyone needs to stay
active during this freezing winter.

there was no

notes Jillian
McGrath,
a
member of Coggeshall Farm’s interpretive
staff. “So to make sure our pound cake is the
right consistency, we have to really cream
the butter and sugar. Get lots of air in there.
It should be light and fluffy.”
The attendees of this Hearth Cooking
Workshop, held weekly at Bristol’s 18th century farm museum, were all seasoned home
cooks, and the concept of beginning a cake
recipe by creaming — thoroughly incorporating — butter and sugar was hardly foreign. What was foreign to the 21st century
cooks in the room was the state of the

kitchen. Not updated since the small farmhouse was built in the last years of the
1700’s, no shiny KitchenAid stand mixer
was going to come to the rescue. This meal
was going to come together in the brick fireplace, by ambient light and candlelight,
prepped with wooden and pewter utensils,
and cooked over a wood-burning fire.
This was going to look a lot like work.
The recipes prepared at the weekly workshops are, at first blush, basic: roast chicken
stuffed with bread and herbs; stewed lamb
with root vegetables simmered in its broth;
the aforementioned pound cake. What
makes them anything but basic is their
source.
The ingredients, too, are authentic. Not of
the period, thankfully, but mostly all Coggeshall-grown, with the exception of the locally-sourced butter and flour. The eggs were
laid by the farm’s hens, and the beets, carrots and turnips were unearthed from bins
of sand in the farmhouse root cellar, where
they spent the months since the harvest.
Preferring dry air, the onions passed their
time bundled and hanging by the hearth.
The chicken, too, was homegrown; its
meager, free-range breast serving as its
badge of authenticity, differentiating it from
an enhanced factory-raised bird as surely as

As America’s first cookbook

important point for Simmons.
“Being an orphan, she had to pick

baking cake in a pot buried under
a mound of red-hot coals is more
than just an incredibly time-consuming way to obtain something
(admittedly a far-superior version
of something) that could be
picked up at any grocery graband-go counter.
It’s incredibly satisfying.
And it reflects a trend that is evident to Booth, who spent several
years as one of the indefatigable
pilgrims inhabiting Plimoth Plantation; and McGrath, whose interest in farming and homesteading
brought her to Coggeshall. “With
everything being so convenient,
you want to hold on to some of the
old ways,” says Booth. “Making
things with your hands feeds your
soul.”

(Jiune 27-29) will celebrate three
of Nathanael G. Herreshoff’s
favorite designs: the 12 1/2, Newport 29, and Buzzards Bay 25. All
three were conceived in 1914, and
turn 100 this year. Owners and
builders of these designs are invited to bring their boats to Mystic
Seaport and take part in events
specially geared toward these Herreshoff classics.
“Our hope is that the show will
bring people together who are
excited to share their passion and
energy for restoring and main-
taining their yachts,” said organizer Andy Giblin, partner at MP&G
Wood Boatbuilding.
In addition to the gam of Herreshoff owners, organizers are
planning social hour, displays and
a panel discussion to explore the
enduring appeal of the designs.
Herreshoff Manufacturing Co.
built 360 of the 12 1/2s between
1914 and 1943, and other builders
still produce the design.
The Newport 29, by comparison, is a rare design. Herreshoff
Manufacturing Co. built only
three of them in 1914, and a
fourth, in 1926. Dolphin and
Mischief still sail in the Newport
area and will be at the show, along
with recently restored Teaser
Rogue and the 2008 cold-molded
version Iolanthe, making for a full
compliment of the design.
The Buzzards Bay 25 is one of
the largest daysailers of the classic
boat world, a keel centerboarder
known for powerful performance.
Several can be seen at the Herreshoff Museum and at least one
will be at the boat show.
Shellfishing closures
Rain and snow melt last week
caused the R.I. Department of
Environmental Management to
extend shellfish closures. The Mt.
Hope Bay, Kickemuit River, Conimicut Triangle and Greenwich
Bay are closed and were due to
reopen at noon on Thursday, Feb.
27.

History in color: The Sherman
Windmill Sail Project
STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE
F
From 2012 to 2013, Rhode
Island artist Nora Rabins, with
help from a grant from Rhode
Island State Council on the Arts,
researched and created colorful
sails that would eventually be
hoisted onto the 17th century
Sherman Windmill at Newport
Restoration
Foundation’s
Prescott Farm, in Portsmouth.
On May 19, 2013, with the public’s help, the beautifully painted
sails were put in place onto the
windmill, which gave the mill the
ability to run on windpower and
grind corn for the first time since
1987.
The Four Corners Arts Center
is pleased to present an exhibition of the sails as well as Rabins’
research. This exhibit opens on
March 1, with an opening reception from 2-4 p.m., Sunday,
Installation artist Nora Rabins created colorful sails for the windmill at
Portsmouth’s Prescott Farm.

WHEN: Opening reception 24 p.m.; Sunday, March 2;
exhibit open 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.,

March 2. This weeklong celebration will include a showing of
three short documentary films
and a discussion at 6:30 p.m. on
Wednesday March 5, and a final
discussion on March 9, the closing day, about where the project
is headed and other sail projects
that Nora is working on.
Nora Rabins is an interdisciplinary artist focusing on public,
site-specific installation. For

Bristol Art Museum to hold first exhibit in its new home
The Bristol Art Museum presents “Fleeting Perspectives &
Expanding Boundaries,” the first
exhibit in its new home, from Feb.
28 to April 13.
On view in the Livingston Gallery
is work by sculptor Jerold Ehrlich
and painter/printmaker Michael
Rich. In the Brick Gallery is interdisciplinary work by Paulette
Hartlett Carr.
Even though Jerry Ehrlich’s work
is constructed out of the detritus of
construction sites, he considers
himself a traditionalist. Working
near Providence, Ehrlich has
exhibited extensively across New
England, including a solo exhibit at
the Newport Art Museum in Newport, and at the Providence Art
Club and Lenore Gray Gallery both
in Providence. His work is held in
the permanent collections of the
Dorchester Hotel in London, Duke
Energy Headquarters in Charlotte,
N.C., and at the Peerless Building,
Providence.
Michael Rich is a professor of
art and visual arts program coordinator at Roger Williams University.

central Italy helped to shape a love
and interest in landscape and natural rhythms of color that remain
very much a focal point in his work
today. Recent featured museum
exhibitions include The Newport
Art Museum and the Walton Arts
Center, Fayetteville Arkansas.
Rich's work is featured in private
and public collections nationally
including the Museum of Southern
Art, New Orleans, and the Spring-
field Museum of Art, Springfield,
Ohio.
Paulette Hartlett Carr’s work is
influenced by ancient Greek and
Roman statuary and fashion as
well as the transformative consequence that time has on organic
materials. Using natural materials
such as burlap, copper, steel and
wood, her work is intended to gently weather and patina over the
course of time. This combination
of sculpture within the natural
environment evokes the feeling
that one may have discovered a
sacred place, the meaning of which
has been lost in time, but the spirit
of which continues to resonate.
An artist reception will be held
from 7 to 9 p.m. on Friday, March 7;
and an artist talk will be held from
2 to 4 p.m. on Sunday, March 16.

Switching Teams
or the first time in his
career as a professional
baseball player, Jacoby
Ellsbury is no longer a member
of the Boston Red Sox. While we
know he has 153 million reasons
and seven years to think about
it, do you think there are any
pangs of regret about switching
loyalties? Me
neither — baseball is a business and most
young players
see switching
teams as a necessary pathway
to financial sucCara
While fans
CROMWELL cess.
might root for a
team across generations, there’s
no team loyalty for the players
and perhaps even less for teams
that move players around like
chess pieces.
While political parties may
inspire loyalty from their piece
of the electorate in November,
the primary process is more
divisive than a clubhouse
squabble and can weaken even
the best of candidates as they
are forced to move left or move
right to try and shore up the
votes of party loyalists. Internal
party squabbles can highlight
divisions on issues and divide
the time, talent and treasure of
campaign activists, leaving candidates and campaign accounts
drained after the September
contests. Rhode Island primaries are also the latest in the
country, with just eight weeks
between primary day and the
general election for parties to
unite and candidates to put forward a message that is appealing to the more centrist November voter.
All of these scenarios are playing out today in the governor’s
race. On the Republican side,
Ken Block has been aggressively
courting Republican party insiders, hoping that they will bring
primary voters his way. As the
founder, former chairman and
past gubernatorial candidate of
the Moderate Party, Mr. Block
probably spends a lot of time
trying to convince Republicans
that he is the better candidate to
represent the party. He and
Mayor Allan Fung have both
been nudged a bit to the right
and are talking about gun owner’s rights — an issue that won’t
crack the top ten in a general
election, but may be top of
mind for a more conservative
Republican primary voter. The
challenge for both of these candidates is to have a message that
appeals to the primary voter
without saying anything that
makes him unelectable in
November.
On the Democratic side, all
three candidates — who probably have few policy disagreements among them — can be
less concerned about moving
too far to the left to be electable
in very blue Rhode Island. However, they should be worried
about the primary being so
bruising that faithful Democrats
or Democratic-leading independents stay home in November
rather than casting a ballot for
someone they don’t like personally. In our small state, we do
have the opportunity to know
people (or at least know people
who know people) and personalities matter a lot more than
they might in a huge state where
seeing the candidate on TV is
more likely than seeing them at
the grocery store. Despite its
deep blue core, Rhode Island
has a history of electing Republican governors and most of the
time, there is a bruising Democratic primary to thank for it.
It’s far too early for too much
prognosticating, but one thing’s
for sure: when the dust settles,
only two of the five campaigns
will continue. That means that
between September and
November, thousands of Rhode
Island voters are going to be
switching teams or deciding to
stay home.

POLI-TICKS
S
Magaziner says he has fresh ideas — and he does
eth Magaziner is running
for Rhode Island General
Treasurer in order to bring
new energy and fresh ideas to our
state government. He’s full of
both! At a recent
breakfast at Kosy
Korner, the 30
year old Brown
(Bachelor) and
Yale (Master of
Arlene
business adminVIOLET
istration) graduate outlined his
reasons for running for the Treasurer’s post.
This Rhode Island native has an
impressive background in public
service. Following Hurricane Katrina’s devastation in Louisiana,
Seth lived and taught for two
years in a rural, overcrowded
school with displaced residents.
Nary a week went by without one
of his students leaving school
because his family left to secure
employment elsewhere. He
learned firsthand how economics
and market forces profoundly
affect quality of life. This experience made him committed to
financial literacy education, as
well as using his skills to empower working people to take charge
of their lives.
Magaziner’s work as Vice President of Trillium Asset Management, a socially responsible
investment firm which managed
a billion and a half dollars of
investor’s money, further bur-
nished his professional experience.
Seeking the Treasurer’s post,
Seth first and foremost is focused
on implementing a fiscally prudent management approach
which maximizes the rate of
return with lower risk. He thinks
that all avenues of investment
should be in play, depending
upon the economic picture. Long
term ‘lock-ups’ with any investment which requires more than a
one-year commitment to a strategy should usually be avoided and
all fees have to be transparent
and accessible to the public on
the State Treasurer’s website.
His ideas include assisting
cities and towns with developing
the tools each need to manage
their finances and investments
wisely. He would offer the opportunity to pool inter-town investments to reduce fees. Corre-
spondingly, he would also investigate a similar pooling arrangement among states in order to get
better fee arrangements.
Mr. Magaziner wants to build
on the Treasurer Raimondo/
Speaker Fox initiative to upgrade
our state’ infrastructure, from
roads and bridges to school
buildings, and to invest in early
childhood education and public
colleges and universities. Paralleling the Clean Water State Revolving Fund , a similar plan would
be implemented for school
repairs and energy efficiency
retrofits for buildings. All the
aforesaid efforts would not only
reduce fees for municipalities but
also generate jobs.
His background working among
the disadvantaged has made him
sensitive to predatory lending, not
only for payday loans which can
charge effective interest rates of
nearly 300% but also other practices. Magaziner cited a recent
Brookings Institute study which
illustrated that poor people who
resort to pawn shops for check
cashing will spend $ 40,000 over a
lifetime. ‘’That same $40,000
would grow to $400,000 in stock
investments, which means a
house, a college education, an
entrance into middle class,” he
notes. The fees charged for the use
of SNAP cards (food stamp benefits), check cashing fees, and other
remittances are also too much. He
has already talked to bankers to
establish less expensive programs
for these services for people who
traditionally eschew banks.
Seth Magaziner presents as a
fresh face with fresh ideas. He is
optimistic that Rhode Island can
restore its prior luster and that
he’s the candidate who is committed to having that happen.
TRASH OR TREASURE?
A ‘mammy’ bench and a Wyman ‘temple’
Q.I have what I think is a mammy’s bench I bought quite a few
years back. It has been lovingly
used and is unique because it has
two gates (for twins) instead of
one which allow
the mammy to
sit on the side
and rock the
baby safely. I
would like to
know more
about it and
Karen
maybe its value.
WATERMAN A. The “mammy” bench was
first created on Southern plantations for the “Mammy” (a female
house slave) who was responsible
for taking care of the children. A
combination of a cradle and a
rocking bench, mammy benches
usually had plank seats and spindle backs. This one is painted
black with gold paint striping
which was popularized by Hitchcock chair around 1820-1850. The
popularity of the mammy bench
spread to other areas of the country from southerners who travelled north for summer vacations
to escape the heat. Travel from
the south abruptly ended in 1861
with the beginning of the Civil
War. Mammy benches (depending on condition) sell for $200-
Mammy bench.
$400 at auction. Better examples
sell for around $800 retail. The
“twin” version, though not as
common, would not necessarily
add value.
Q. My husband picked up a
piece of pottery at a yard sale last
year. Thus far we have determined that it is a piece created by
William Wyman, a professional
pottery maker from Massachusetts. I was wondering if you
might be able to tell us something about this pottery, such as
its usefulness and its value, if any.
A. William Wyman was a potter who operated Herring Run
Pottery in East Weymouth, Massachusetts. Wyman was born in
Boston in 1922 and produced
pottery from 1953 until shortly
before his death in 1980. He produced a variety of stoneware
objects ranging from planters to
architectural murals. Particularly
popular were his “slab” vessels
which he referred to as “temples”
which paid homage to rock n roll,
poems and cartoons. He produced the ovoid shaped vase similar to yours in many styles and
glazes. Others similar in the dark
brown black glaze have sold for
$100-$150.

Energy fund facing urgent need
After a brief thaw, winter temperatures have
returned to Rhode Island. The cold, coupled with the
state’s high unemployment rate and the high cost of
living are generating a heightened “urgency of need”
from local families who are in temporary crisis and
seeking heating assistance from the Rhode Island
Good Neighbor Energy Fund. The Fund’s goal is to
raise $550,000 and assist 1,750 families this winter.
The Rhode Island Good Neighbor Energy Fund is a
safety net for families who do not qualify for federal
and state assistance programs. The Fund’s campaign
relies on the generosity of individuals, families and
local corporations for support. The Salvation Army
distributes contributions to families who qualify
based on specific household income and family
member guidelines.
A donation in any amount can be made via the yellow envelope enclosed with energy bills through the
end of March. You may also donate online by visiting
the Fund’s website at www.rhodeislandgoodneighbor.org or mailing a check, payable to the “Good
Neighbor Energy Fund,” to The Salvation Army, 386
Broad Street, Providence, RI 02907.
Since its establishment in 1986, the Good Neighbor
Energy Fund has raised over $11.8 million and
helped more than 42,000 families who have been in
temporary crisis and in need of energy assistance.

Good Neighbor Energy Fund, please call 401/4900240 or visit www.rhodeislandgoodneighbor.org.

DINING REVIEW
An American-style bistro with elegance, comfort
B
istro 524 is an Americanstyle bistro tucked into a
plaza in Tiverton that’s a
pleasant surprise. Fresh flowers,
candles, white linens, pearl gray
walls, gray patterned carpets,
high-backed white leather chairs,
a stone wall waterfall and carefully chosen artwork combine to
make a comfortable, yet elegant
atmosphere.
A box of Crayangles at each
table invites you to create some
of your own artwork on the
paper-topped tablecloth.
The 60-seat restaurant has
been open just over a year and
owner and Executive Chef Karen
DeLeo has a hit on her hands. On
a recent cold evening, the restaurant was full of couples and families and many knew each other.
So, there’s a neighborhood vibe
along with the relaxed elegance.
There’s a dining room to the left
as you enter and a second on the
right with an attractive bar and
large wine rack. The menu isn’t
exceptionally large, but it’s still
difficult to choose, with lots of
comfort foods for winter and
innovative turns on old favorites.
We started with wine and
there’s an eclectic choice from
around the world (and Little
Compton), with 24 by the glass.
Or, check out the margaritas,
martinis, classic cocktails, wine
and champagne drinks, beers and
coffee drinks.
Our server Jim carefully
described all the luscious sounding specials — a grilled naan
appetizer with smoked salmon,
goat cheese, capers, red onions
and sriracha. The salmon dujour
had a black and white sesame
crust with honey soy glaze, jasmine rice and pea tendrils. And, a
sun-dried tomato and prosciutto
risotto was topped with shrimp
and divers scallops.
A dinner for two with a bottle of
wine is $40 Sunday to Thursday
and the six entree choices are
poached haddock with tomato,
onion, red pepper, mushroom
and mussels in a white wine herb
broth; a grilled breast of chicken
with green beans, olives, roasted
garlic and artichoke hearts over
mashed potatoes; mussels with
leeks, fines herbes and Pernod
over linguine; a braised short rib
with mashed potatoes and kale,
pork loin with a grilled chouriço
and white bean cassoulet, and
sautéed shrimp with tomato and
spinach in a garlic herb butter
tossed with linguine.
Bistro 524
524 Main Road, Tiverton
401/816-5521
www.bistro524.com
Hours: 5 to 9 p.m. Tuesday to
Sunday
Most Popular Dishes: French
onion soup, grilled Caesar,
crabcakes, bouillabaisse, lamb
chops and the salmon dujour
Then, the regular menu has a
braised short rib, roasted cod and
littlenecks, steak frites, lamb
chops, sautéed breast of chicken
with roasted vegetable sauce,
bouillabaisse, salmon of the day,
duck breast with drunken cherry
sauce, meatloaf with garlic
mashed potatoes, lobster mac
and cheese with shrimp and
bacon crumbs, chicken scalloppini, littlenecks and pasta in a white
wine, butter and Romano sauce,
and a risotto. For lighter appetites
there are Black Angus burgers
(one with lobster, bacon and
cheese sauce) and a chicken
Gruyere sandwich.
Starters were crabcakes, bacon-
wrapped shrimp, whipped goat
cheese with basil and walnuts,
mussels frites, cheese plate, roasted vegetable bisque, seafood
chowder and clam fritter, onion
soup gratinée, baby spinach salad, grilled Caesar, and a green salad with apples and walnuts.
There are sides of sautéed kale,
frites (fries) with Romano and
fines herbes or tomato aioli, roasted Brussels sprouts, and pasta
with roasted vegetable sauce.
We started with some bread hot
from the oven and a dish of olive
oil fragrant with herbs, garlic and
a little Romano.
Grilling a romaine heart makes
for a divine Caesar salad — the
lettuce is crisp with slightly grilled
edges and drizzled with a creamy
housemade dressing, scattered
with grated Parmesan and
adorned with a Parmesan crisp
and grilled French bread.
The onion soup gratinée is
baked in a large crock. The savory
broth was thick with sweet
onions and covered with a fat
slice of toasted bread and lots of
gooey Gruyere cheese.
A blueberry reduction on the
lamb chops had just the right
amount of sweetness to complement the lemon/thyme marinat-
ed chops, which were grilled to a
rosy pink medium rare.
Crisp/tender sautéed curly kale
and olive oil mashed potatoes
were perfectly prepared accompaniments.
The bouillabaisse was greeted
with delight by the seafood lover
at the table. A soup tureen of
tomato saffron broth held littlenecks, mussels, native cod and
big shrimp. A grilled baguette and
a spoon guaranteed that all of the
amazing broth was enjoyed to the
last drop.
We really didn’t need dessert,
but the list sounded so tempting
with German chocolate cake, red
velvet cake, flourless chocolate
cake, chocolate peanut butter pie,
a puff pastry with vanilla ice
cream and chocolate sauce, and
mango sorbet.
The sorbet was the ideal solution and it looked so pretty in a
tall stemmed martini glass. The
tart, peach-colored sorbet and a
sweet blueberry compote with
fresh mint leaves was perfect with
our coffee and a sweet ending to
a very enjoyable evening.

O
cean State Theatre Company is pleased to present Rhode Island’s own
Nicolas King (and Liza Minelli’s
protege) in concert for a onenight-only event. Recently seen
on “The Tonight Show” with Jay
Leno, Mr. King has been performing and wowing crowds all
over the country since he was
four years old.
egendary musician Peter
Yarrow weaves a narrative
of his life in music and politics, punctuating the major
events with renditions of the
iconic songs we all know and love.
From his life in Greenwich Village
in the 1960’s, his connections to
Bob Dylan and Pete Seeger and
his career as part of the trio Peter,
Paul and Mary, Yarrow shares a
part of American history influenced heavily by music. Yarrow
creates community within his
audiences through his reflections
in both words and music.
The Bristol Art Museum presents a
juried exhibit, “Show Us Your Best,” in
the lower gallery at the library. Featured
artist is Jay Egge, painter, who won Best
in Show. The other featured artist, Candis Dixon, has 3D artbooks in the
vestibule.
Community School offers an opportunity to escape the winter blahs and
learn for yourself that Shakespeare &
Company is about more than works by
the Bard, as you will see from their winter production of the Noel Coward
comedy, “Private Lives.” The play concerns a divorced couple who find themselves in adjoining hotel rooms while
honeymooning with their new spouses
in the South of France. The two
estranged lovebirds shamelessly rekindle their smoldering passions in this
outrageous and scandalous comedy.

MEET HEIDI KELLEY: REALTOR, TRAVELER, COOK AND GRANDMOTHER
H
BY JOAN D. WARREN
eidi Kelley has been in
real estate for more than
three years. She is an
optimist and expects
2014 to be her best year
yet in the field. She is the mother of a
26-year-old daughter and is grandmother to a 5-year old grandson. She has
lived on the East Coast her entire life,
including Massachusetts, New
Hampshire and New Jersey, with the
majority of time in Rhode Island. She
is a member of Sts. Matthew & Mark
Episcopal Church in Barrington. In her
Keller Williams office she is the "Tech
Ambassador" and a member of the
Associate Leadership Committee,
which is like a board of directors for
the market center. Heidi specializes in
first-time home buyers and veterans.
She currently lives in Riverside.
WHY REAL ESTATE AS A
CAREER? "In 1988 I was 24 years
old and I had taken the New
Hampshire real estate exam (didn’t
pass it at the time) but I knew when the
time was right in my life I would get
my real estate license. In 2011 I did just
that."
WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT IT?
"After working for a company doing
inside sales for eight years and having
to give the kind of customer service
they wanted me to give, I knew I could
provide better service on my own. I
especially enjoy working with firsttime home buyers. It’s exciting sitting
down with them and talking about why
they want to buy a home. I also love
working with veterans. In a small way I
get to show my appreciation for their
service to our country."
WHAT MAKES THE EAST BAY
MARKETABLE? "The East Bay is a
melting pot of opportunities for investments in real estate. You have everything from commercial
development/light industry to historic
homes, beachfront cottages, condos and
wonderful, family-friendly neighborhoods. Each town in the East Bay has
its own personality. If you want an
artistic community with great places to
eat and hang out, there’s Warren.
Bristol is an “all-American” town with
its walkable downtown area with shops
and restaurants. It also offers beautiful
waterfront properties and quaint family
neighborhoods. Barrington is a beautiful suburban town that runs along Ten
Mile River with lots of family-friendly
neighborhoods and a pretty downtown
area. If you were looking for a quiet,
family-friendly area with lots of green
space, Barrington would fit quite nicely. Living on the East Bay is also a
short, 30-minute commute to
Providence or Newport."
WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR
HOW IS LIFE WITH A GLUTEN
ALLERGY? "My gluten allergy was
diagnosed in 2012 after several tests. I
was recently diagnosed as having
Celiac Disease, which is different then
just a gluten allergy. I cannot eat anything containing flour, wheat, barley,
malt, rye, etc. I have to be vigilant in
my choice of restaurants, and grocery
shopping requires lots of label reading.
I eat so much healthier now. I don't
look at it as an obstacle, just a new way
of living better."
Heidi Kelley
Keller Williams
Newport & East Bay
401-633-4763
A TYPICAL DAY IN YOUR LIFE:
HOBBIES? "I recently started taking
knitting classes at Knit One Quilt Too
in Barrington. I love to travel and have
been to 48 states so far. I’m also an
avid reader. I'm reading "Daring
Greatly;" it's the book my book club is
reading. It's about living a life with vulnerability and not looking at vulnerability as a weakness but a strength. I'm
also reading "Knitting Yarns," by the
local author Ann Hood."
HAS THIS SNOWY WINTER
BEEN HARD ON YOUR BUSINESS? "The snowy winter hasn't real-
ly affected me badly. I've helped two
buyers close on their new homes in
January and February, and a seller close
on his condo in January. I'm fully
expecting a busy spring market, with
the interest rates still being historically
low, and the average listing price being
around 3 to 5% higher then last year."
FAVORITE SEASON? "Fall is my
favorite season, with changing leaves
and crispness in the air, followed closely by spring."
WHAT IS YOUR DREAM VACATION? "That’s easy … a European
Tour. I want to spend a month touring
around Europe. This is on my bucket
list."
WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE FOOD
TO MAKE? "I love cooking, so I’d
have to say Thanksgiving dinner with
all the fixings."
FAVORITE EAST BAY EATERY?
"Any place with a great wine list and a
gluten free menu. I like the Beehive
Café in Bristol and the Wharf Tavern in
Warren."
"Lead-generating for new business.
Whether I’m in my Bristol Keller
Williams office or working from home
in Riverside, I’m always on the phone
or meeting people around town and
asking, 'who do you know who wants
to buy a home, sell a home or invest in
real estate that I could call today?' "
WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE OUTSIDE OF RHODE ISLAND? "I like
the East Coast. Probably in Virginia or
North Carolina. I still want four seasons with a little less snow."
ARE YOU A DOG OR CAT PERSON? "I have both, but I’m now more
a dog person. My dogs drive me mad,
but my house wouldn’t function without them."
WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE IF
YOU HAD A CHOICE? "I’d live in
Bristol on the water."

House of the Week
What's old is new again in downtown Bristol
Pride of ownership is relevant
in this elegant, three-story
Victorian home in historic
downtown Bristol. The home
was built in 1878, and practically every inch has been painstakingly restored to its original
beauty.
Currently, the 3,224-squarefoot home at 68 Constitution St.
has two apartments, but the
owners have architectural drawings for converting it to a singlefamily home. The first-floor
apartment has recently been renovated with a new kitchen and
bathroom.
Both apartments, mirror
images of one another, have two
bedrooms and hardwood floors
and intricate moldings. The second floor, used by the property
owners, has a gas fireplace.
They utilize the third floor as
well for extra living space and
guest quarters with a full bath.
In the 14 years since they purchased the property, the owners
have restored the home to its
original grandeur. Known as the
Captain Albert Coggeshall
Bennett House, it is registered
with the Bristol Historic District
Commission. The 6,804-squarefoot lot is beautifully landscaped
with perennial plantings and a
charming stone terrace.
The home is located conveniently downtown with a short
walk to shops, restaurants, the
East Bay Bike Path, and just a
few houses down from historic
Hope Street and steps from the
Fourth of July parade route.

Loan rates based on $100,000 with 20% down payment & no PMI. Variable mortgages listed are for 30 years, adjusted annually. Points are a one-time charge equal to one percent of the mortgage. APR stands for annual
percentage rate and reflects closing costs spread over the life of the loan. CAP is the most a variable mortgage can increase in one year. Savings and loans and Rhode Island loan and investment banks are included in the bank section of this chart. These rates,
provided by the institutions on Monday of this week, are subject to change or special conditions. For more information, consumers are advised to call the institution. First-time homebuyers may qualify for lower-rate mortgages from the Rhode Island Housing
and Mortgage Finance Corporation. Many credit unions only grant loans to members and limit membership to a defined group. When shopping for mortgage rates ask for explanation of closing costs. Financial institutions that write residential mortgages that
wish to be included on this list can get in touch with Classified Real Estate Advertising Specialist at 401-253-1000
