Practice makes perfect as PHS marching band gears up for another year BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] As high school band director, Ted Rausch is prepared for any crisis that comes his way. Take sophomore Ryan Lee’s emergency during a break in band camp Friday. “Um, how do you get red syrup off a saxophone?” asked Ryan, shortly after treating himself to some ice cream and toppings that had been donated to the band by Frosty Freez in Middletown. “Take a napkin,” Mr. Rausch advised. “But this is after I wiped it. It’s sticky.” “Then use a wet napkin,” replied the band director. Problem solved. Now back to the music. As they do every August, members of the marching band have been gathering at the high school over the past two weeks to work out the kinks, learn new songs and drill charts and help freshmen distinguish their left feet from their right. The band is coming off a big year in which it represented Rhode Island in the Presidential Inaugural Parade before taking a cruise out of Miami. This year, things will be someone more low-key. “There’s no big trip looming over us like the Bermuda cruise,” said Mr. Rausch. “We’re going to work on a smaller trip — maybe New York City or something like that.” Tolls for thee Bridge levy begins despite protest See CAMP Page 2 Senior Josh Warburton competes in the march-off Friday at band camp.

McGann academic year. The School Committee Monday night voted unanimously to appoint Newport resident Barbara E. McGann, 66, as interim superintendent.

Still, the senior is excited about this year, especially the band’s “Star Wars” theme for the upcoming field shows. “It’s something that Mr. Rausch has been trying to do for a long, long time,” said Kyle. “And most of the music is out of print, so they’ve been working all summer trying to get this music. Plus, just looking at some of the drill charts that we have, it looks really impressive with some of the effects they have with us moving across the field. They’re actually have us make a Darth Vader mask.” As for the biggest challenge of marching band, Kyle said it’s probably just marching in a parade block, “just keeping that straight line and keeping the straight lines on the field for the shows. Memorizing is also kind of tricky.” One thing’s for sure this year: The band isn’t lacking in numbers. “The band this year has been the largest that I’ve ever seen. We’ve got 178 right now. When I started it was 65 and it just kind of slowly increased,” said Mr. Rausch, noting that the middle school has a strong music program and that he tries to meet with even younger students to get them interested in pursuing music. “I try to do as much as I can in the district to promote the music program like visiting PHOTOS BY JIM MCGAW Austin Kopp, a junior, marches with the band around the high school parking lot Friday.

I don’t lose a lot of kids each year going from freshman to sophomore to junior to senior year. They stay on and want to come back.” March-off A rite of passage at band camp over the past 16 years has been the march-off, a contest in which students are tested on how well they follow basic drill commands — “forward march,” “about face,” “right flank,” “mark time” (march in place), etc. — while an electronic metronome keeps Everyday Low Prices!!

After a tight battle, the last one standing Friday was Sawyer Nichols, who took home a band shirt as his prize. “Last year I did pretty well, but didn’t win it,” said Sawyer, adding that “keeping your head clear and just focusing on what he says” is the key to success in a march-off. Practical jokers It's too early to tell what kind Andreas Pondiki yells out “salt!” Friday after band director Ted Rausch asked students what the word of the day should be. Each day of band camp has a new word, and band members must say it after the director asks, “Band, are you ready?” of pranksters Mr. Rausch has on his hands this year, but he expects he’ll be the target of more practical jokes from students. “That started years ago on a New York trip, where they collected soda cans and built a soda can wall. From there they've done everything from moving my car and calling me down with the principal — saying there was a drinking problem — to decorating my room with piñatas,” he said. Last year, two band members pretended to get married on the Bermuda cruise ship. A flabbergasted Mr. Rausch entered the “ceremony” while the scene was videotaped for prosperity. Students have even been known to pop in at the band director’s home, like a group of boys did back in March. It didn’t matter that it was a holiday. “We’re all ‘Walking Dead’ fans and they wanted to come over and watch the season finale,” said Mr. Rausch. “I said, ‘But it’s Easter Sunday, guys.’ Sure enough, at 9 o’clock at night they showed up with two bags of chips and a case of Mountain Dew.” Portsmouth Times August 22, 2013 Page 3 Protesters crowd Sakonnet Bridge to demand no tolls Tolls activated after midnight on Monday BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] Anywhere from 200 to 350 people — depending on whose numbers you believe — took to the Sakonnet River Bridge bike path Sunday evening armed with signs of protest and and a clear message to the R.I. Turnpike and Bridge Authority (RITBA): Don’t toll us. Despite their pleas, the tolling gantry on the bridge was activated by RITBA at 12:01 a.m. Monday. Those with an active E-ZPass are charged 10 cents each way, although most protesters Sunday night said they’ll be removing their transponders from their vehicles. (Last week RITBA Chairman David Darlington said the Authority won’t, at this time, be sending bills to drivers without an active transponder. The onus is on them to pay the toll, he said.) John Vitkevich, one of the organizers of what turned out to be a peaceful demonstration, said he was pleased with the turnout at the protest, which featured speeches by himself and others as drivers honked their horns in support. Mr. Vitkevich said there were “counters” on each end of the bridge who estimated that anywhere from 300 to 350 people came out, while others gauged the turnout at about 200 to 250. “The people who are taking their Sunday afternoon to do this … it means something to them. Everybody’s pissed off that we have a toll on the bridge … and Darlington doesn’t get it yet,” Mr. Vitkevich said. “One minute he’s going to mail the bill. Now he’s not going to mail the bill. He’s going to put a phone number up so you can call in and give a credit card. You know what the credit card charge would be for a 20-cent toll? C’mon Dave, give it up.” Mr. Vitkevich is the man behind the “Refuse to Use your EZ-Pass” movement (www.donttoll.com), which urges drivers to either deactivate or remove their EZ-Pass transponder when crossing the Sakonnet River Bridge. A good number of the bridge protesters Sunday said that’s exactly what they’ll do. Marilyn Burns and Sarah Zlydaszek of Portsmouth and Joanne Ryder of Tiverton were among those protesting and each came with signs. The three women work PHOTOS BY JIM MCGAW "It’s going to hurt me and my business," said Mike Gifford of Portsmouth, a contractor who came out to protest Sunday night. "I work off island a lot.” together at the Portsmouth Shop and are worried about the impact a toll will have on their business. “A third of our business comes from across the bridge and we’ve been told point blank by customers that they’ll stop coming,” said Ms. Zlydaszek, who has a transponder but won’t be using it. “It would hurt our business, it would hurt the sales tax revenue that we send to the state, and in general it’s just not a good message for people (you’re trying to) welcome to the island. There are alternate means of funding that have been found, and the government is choosing not to listen to the people.” RITBA originally wanted to collect 75 cents each way for drivers with E-ZPass transponders purchased in Rhode Island, with a maximum daily charge of $1.50. All other drivers would have paid $3.75 each way, and those without a transponder would be sent a bill with an extra $1.50 charge added on. But in an 11th-hour action move back in June, the General Assembly decided to delay RITBA’s proposed tolls until a legislative study commission could look into alternate ways to fund the maintenance of all state bridges. The study commission must issue its report to the full assembly by Jan. 15. Lawmakers agreed to authorize a 10-cent charge — scheduled to expire April 1, 2014 — as a place-keeper so that a toll could remain an option for the bridge. PORTSMOUTH TIMES 1 Bradford St, Bristol 245-6000 • 253-6055 (fax) Mailing address: P.O. Box 90, Bristol, RI 02809 Published continuously since 1967. Protesters jammed up parts of Anthony Road in order to access the bridge’s bike path Sunday. Bad for small businesses Ralph Craft of Portsmouth, who was on the bridge with his family, said the toll is just another added burden for working families and small businesses. “We’ve got a small area in Rhode Island that’s being tolled, where 90 percent of Rhode Island isn’t. We’re getting hammered,” Mr. Craft said. “I’m a blue-collar worker. Both the wife and I go off the island every day and we don’t have it. It simply comes down to money. It’s going to hurt us all. You really have to wonder if they want small businesses in Rhode Island. Do they want WalMarts, do they want all the big con- For news contact: Jim McGaw, Editor 424-9138 [email protected] glomerates and just get rid of the small people?” Mr. Craft also won’t be using his transponder, and neither will Mike Gifford of Portsmouth, who said he works a lot off the island. “I’m a contractor and I have two pickup trucks and it’s going to cost me a lot of money — not at 10 cents but at whatever they raise it up to eventually. It’s going to hurt me and my business,” he said. With a toll in place, Charlie Chase of Fall River said he won’t be coming into Portsmouth as much as he’s done in the past. “It’s not that I’m out here just to make a noise.

I think they have just about the best cucumbers around,” said Mr. Chase, 75. “I work for a medical supply house and I come across the bridge quite a bit, so that’s going to hurt the business. We’re probably going to either cut down on the number of times we come to the doctors’ offices, or we will just drop the islands — I don’t know. You and I both know it’s not going to stay at 10 cents.” Mr. Chase said he’s tired of people being “taxed to death” and said that’s not what America is about. “America is for the people, not the politicians. I come from Massachusetts and what happened to the Mass Pike? Once it was paid off, the toll was supposed to be taken off. Once the politicians get their hands in the people’s pockets, they never get them out.” Later on, Mr. Chase grabbed a microphone and told the assembled crowd, “Remember the tolls at the polls.” Jim O’Dell of Tiverton said that something few people are talking about is the poor shape that the “brand-new” bridge is in. He claimed the span is “full of stress fractures.” Jeanne Smith of the group S.T.O.P. (Sakonnet Toll Opposition Platform) said taxpayers got “hoodwinked” by legislators back in June. “Next year we have to get rid of our governor and get rid of the speaker of the House,” she said. Before calling an end to the protest at about 6:15 p.m., Mr. Vitkevich urged the crowd to “jam up (RITBA’s) phone lines.” “Mr. Darlington,” he said. “Take the toll down, take the gantry down. Go home.” For subscription or newsstand information contact: Circulation Department 253-6000, ext. 131 [email protected] [email protected] Matthew Hayes, Publisher 424-9140 [email protected] News deadline ..... noon Tuesday Advertising deadline ..... noon Tuesday Around Town . . . . . . . . . . . . .10 At the Library . . . . . . . . . . . . .11 Engagements . . . . . . . . . . . . .10 Opinion . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .9 Police Report . . . . . . . . . . . . . .8 Religion News . . . . . . . . . . . . .11 Page 4 Portsmouth Times August 22, 2013 Toll opponent: Arson was bad PR for us Bridge equipment sabotaged Saturday BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] While John Vitkevich doesn’t hold his tongue when it comes to the Sakonnet River Bridge tolls or the R.I. Bridge and Turnpike Authority (RITBA), he said he would never sabotage any equipment on the span. In the wee hours of Saturday morning, Aug. 16, equipment on the Sakonnet River Bridge was intentionally damaged by fire, according to David Darlington, RITBA chairman. “Today, at approximately 1 a.m. Police and fire responded to the scene, and the fire was quick- ly extinguished,” Mr. Darlington said in the press release issued mid-day Saturday. “A backup system is in place and therefore there will be minimal interruption of the normal operations. Thanks to diligent work by repair crews, the main systems have either been restored or will be within the next several hours.” Traffic on the bridge was uninterrupted and the tolls were implemented as planned Monday morning. A RITBA worker who was on the span’s bike path Saturday around 1 p.m. said the brick building that contains the tolling mechanism on the Portsmouth side was not damaged. What was vandalized, he said, were con- duits containing electrical wires. “The destruction of state property is a crime we take very seriously; the matter has been turned over to the Rhode Island State Police and will be investigated and prosecuted. We support the right of civil protest,” Mr. Darlington said. “We have no tolerance for vandalism and arson, which puts lives in peril. This act of attempted sabotage is not a victimless form of protest. It poses a potential danger to motorists and first responders, and the financial costs of the crime are borne by toll payers.” Mr. Vitkevich said two plainclothes detectives from the State Police came to his house around 1:15 p.m. Saturday. “They said ‘John, we just want to talk to you about what happened,’” said Mr. Vitkevich. “I said, ‘I figured you were going to be here.’ I said it makes us look bad. I told them do not limit their investigation to just the opposition, and look at (RITBA), because this could make us look bad.” He added that he and other protesters are against any criminal acts. “We wanted to get this done financially, legally, ethically. We’re not tell anyone to do any damage,” he said. In a written statement, Deputy Fire Chief Michael P. O’Brien cautioned people against glorifying or sensationalizing the use of fire to protest the tolls. “During the 60 minutes that fire companies spent at the scene, the Town of Portsmouth was left without fire or medical coverage. Had a second emergency occurred, response would have been extremely delayed due to this individuals actions,” he said. The fire is being investigated by not only State Police and local police and fire departments, but the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Federal dollars were used to build the bridge and some of the damaged cables are federal property. Anyone with any information regarding the fire should contact State Police at 444-1000. MCGANN: Interim superintendent a big fan of STEAM education From Page 1 “We are more than excited to bring in a CEO of Barbara’s depth and experience,” said School Committee Chairman David Croston. “She shared our commitment to develop in Portsmouth a 21st century model. Her commitment to the student, the classroom, and her ability to work collaboratively with all stakeholders is truly a gift to Portsmouth.” Ms. McGann replaces Jeffrey Schoonover, interim director of instruction and assessment, who had been working as interim school chief in the absence of Lynn Krizic, who resigned July 31. Ms. McGann most recently was the executive director for three years of a Massachusetts charter school, The Advanced Math and Science Academy in Marlborough. She’s also served as superintendent in Marlborough, an urban school district serving about 4,600 students, and as assistant superintendent in Boston. Ms. McGann was led to an educational career as a fellow of the Broad Urban Superintendents Academy. Upon retirement from the Navy, from 2002 to 2004 she served as chief executive officer of the American Red Cross of Rhode Island. She’s had a distinguished Naval career. Her personal decorations include two Distinguished Service medals, two Legion of Merit medals, the Defense Meritorious Service Medal, four Meritorious Service medals, two Navy and Marine Corps commendation medals and the Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal. Ms. McGann retired as a twostar rear admiral in 2002, having served as provost of the Naval War College in Newport, where she was born in raised. (She grew up, in fact, up on the same street as School Committee member Frederick Faerber.) “It’s clear that there’s very enlightened leadership in place here and I’m thrilled about it,” Ms. McGann said after Monday’s meeting. She got her first glimpse of it, she said, when she was provost at the Navy War College and her students — military officers notorious for researching school systems – were reporting positive things about the Portsmouth schools. “I’m a voracious reader of the (R.I. Department of Education) performance measures. I’m just very impressed with the out- comes they’ve achieved here," she said. Fan of STEAM The interim superintendent favors the whole STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and math curriculum) approach to learning, a philosophy shared by many school leaders in Portsmouth. “I was doing some doctoral work at Leslie University which is how I came to educate myself on the importance of STEAM in educating the whole child, and how exciting it can be when you link all the content areas together and when you introduce children to very advanced learning in a fun way through art and design,” she said. The Portsmouth school district, she said, has positioned itself “to drive forward” with a system that’s going to serve students well. “Part of that, of course, is the investigation of apprenticeships and internships, where children are leaving to learn,” Ms. McGann said. “You’re placing them in the private sector early in their high school careers so they can see what they want to be, so they have role models and mentors who are doing the kinds of things that they aspire to do.” Ms. McGann holds a Master of Science degree in business administration from Salve Regina University and a Master of Arts degree in foreign affairs from Georgetown University. She was conferred an honorary Doctor of Education degree from Roger Williams University in 2002. KRIZIC: Settlement costs district over $176,000 From Page 1 ey impacts the budget for the 2013 fiscal year, not the current one that began July 1. The committee projected a surplus in the 2013 budget of over $1 million. After Monday’s meeting, Mr. Croston said he wouldn't elaborate further on the agreement. When asked Wednesday morning if the figure of $176,000 and change represents what the former superintendent would have been paid in her third and final contract year, Mr. Croston replied, “I can't get into it.” The chairman said Dr. Krizic’s salary was about $145,000 for the first year of her contract and she received a standard cost-of-living increase in the second, although he wasn’t sure for how much. Dr. Krizic requested and was granted a 30-day leave of absence from the superintendent’s job in June, then resigned July 31. Portsmouth Times August 22, 2013 Page 5 N.J. man pleads not guilty in Amber Alert case Charged with transporting minor to engage in criminal sexual activity Daniel Berger, 27, of Haskell, N.J., pleaded not guilty in U.S. District Court in Providence today to a federal indictment charging him with one count of transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. The plea was announced by U.S. Attorney Peter F. Neronha; Vincent B. Lisi, special agent in charge of the Boston Field Office of the F B I ; Portsmouth Acting Police Chief Jeffrey Furtado; and Col. Steven G. O’Donnell, superintendent Daniel Berger, 27 of the Rhode Island State Police. According to information presented to the court, it’s alleged that on July 24, Mr. Berger traveled from New Jersey to Rhode Island to meet with a 13-year-old Portsmouth girl he befriended on the internet. He allegedly transported the girl to his residence in Haskell, N.J. with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. Responding to an Amber Alert issued in Rhode Island for the young girl, local, state and federal law enforcement in Rhode Island and New Jersey worked together and located the victim at Mr. Berger's apartment in Haskell. FBI agents from Newark, assisted by local and state law enforcement officers, recovered the victim shortly after midnight. Mr. Berger was detained in New Jersey on a federal criminal complaint issued in Rhode Island on a charge of transportation of a minor with intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. He was transported to Rhode Island on July 29 by the U.S. Marshals Service and was ordered detained following an initial appearance on July 30 in U.S. District Court in Providence. If convicted, Mr. Berger faces 10 years to life in federal prison, up to five years of supervised release and a fine of up to $250,000. The case is being prosecuted by assistant U.S. attorneys Stephen G. Dambruch and Milind M. Shah. Portsmouth Police, Rhode Island State Police and FBI agents from Providence and Newark, N.J., were assisted by the New Jersey State Police and officers from the Ringwood, Wanaque, Paterson and Clifton, N.J. police departments. Kids dig into fun at library Summer reading program ends this week It was only appropriate that kids were digging into dirt at the Portsmouth Free Public Library recently. After all, the theme for the library’s summer reading program was “Dig Into Reading.” Recently, participants ages 5 to 10 took part in a program, called “Dig Into Construction,” by sifting for "gold" in two containers. Before that they competed to see which team could build the highest building block tower, and also built a marble maze. The marble maze required some problem-solving skills, as the children had to keep adjusting small tunnels on a sticky board so that the balls kept zigzagging to their destination below: the cargo area of a plastic toy pickup truck. When the balls kept bouncing out of his truck, 7-year-old Michael Littlefield came up with an ingenious solution: He placed a napkin over the truck bed to break the ball’s fall. The last event for the summer reading program was the “Dig Deep Challenge” last Thursday. Kids in kindergarten through grade 5 competed in a muddy obstacle course. Participants were asked to bring a canned food item for donation.

Seven residents representing the town made a goodwill visit to Portsmouth, England in May to extend congratulations to the newly appointed lord mayor of that city, Lynne Stagg. The local contingent was wined and dined for a week. The town will re-pay the favor when Councillor Stagg — and mayors from the Portsmouth towns of New Hampshire and Virginia — arrive for the 375th “Gala Weekend” Aug. 29 to Sept. 1 that will include a grand reception, parade, family day and more. “I think for the seven of us who went there, we feel a strong responsibility to show them at least the same hospitality that they were kind enough to show us,” said Mr. Smith, chairman of the 375th Steering Committee. The celebration kicks off from 5-7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 29, with a welcome reception to greet Councillor Stagg and Lady Mayoress Anne Taulbut. He urged people who want to attend the reception to get their tickets — at $25 each — early. “They're probably going to be sold out," said Mr. Smith, noting that attendance is limited to 200. “This will be the major social event of the year for Portsmouth. I think it's really going to be a neat thing to go to.” Chicken-lovers should also plan ahead, he said, for Sunday, Sept. 1, when Cabral’s Famous Chicken Dinner will be served from 1-3 p.m. at Glen Park. Enjoy a half-chicken, baked potato, roll and butter, coleslaw, cranberry sauce, sweet corn and drink for $12.50 (tickets must be purchased by Aug. 24). The dinner will be held during the Portsmouth 375 Birthday Family Day Picnic (noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 1), a free day of fun, food and more.

PHS band director Ted Rausch said this parade is the earliest the group has ever appeared in public during marching band season. “It's kind of making me rethink our focus on how we do band camp (see story, page 1). I’ve had to spend a little more time on the parade block,” he said. Spectators can expect to see many local and state officials marching, as well as several VFW posts, the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, local clubs, sports leagues and businesses (workers from Scampi restaurant have offered to dress as lobsters). There will be about “five or six floats,” antique fire trucks and convertibles carrying VIPs, Sesame Street characters, the Pawtucket Red Sox mascot and more, said Mr. Wardwell. “We’ve got over 55 units. I think it will probably run close to an hour and a half,” he said. Later that day, at 2 p.m., the Artillery Company of Newport will perform a canon salute at Bristol Ferry Common (10 a.m.).

Seven residents representing the town made a goodwill visit to Portsmouth, England in May to extend congratulations to the newly appointed lord mayor of that city, Lynne Stagg. The local contingent was wined and dined for a week. The town will re-pay the favor when Councillor Stagg — and mayors from the Portsmouth towns of New Hampshire and Virginia — arrive for the 375th “Gala Weekend” Aug. 29 to Sept. 1 that will include a grand reception, parade, family day and more. “I think for the seven of us who went there, we feel a strong responsibility to show them at least the same hospitality that they were kind enough to show us,” said Mr. Smith, chairman of the 375th Steering Committee. The celebration kicks off from 5-7 p.m. on Thursday, Aug. 29, with a welcome reception to greet Councillor Stagg and Lady Mayoress Anne Taulbut. He urged people who want to attend the reception to get their tickets — at $25 each — early. “They're probably going to be sold out," said Mr. Smith, noting that attendance is limited to 200. “This will be the major social event of the year for Portsmouth. I think it's really going to be a neat thing to go to.” Chicken-lovers should also plan ahead, he said, for Sunday, Sept. 1, when Cabral’s Famous Chicken Dinner will be served from 1-3 p.m. at Glen Park. Enjoy a half-chicken, baked potato, roll and butter, coleslaw, cranberry sauce, sweet corn and drink for $12.50 (tickets must be purchased by Aug. 24). The dinner will be held during the Portsmouth 375 Birthday Family Day Picnic (noon to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 1), a free day of fun, food and more. On Friday, Aug. 30, the Community MusicWorks’ String Quartet will perform at Greenvale Vineyards from 6-8 p.m. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. and admission OWNED FAMILY S R 51 YEA DeCastro Grown SWEET CORN TOP: At band camp last Friday, the Portsmouth High School Marching Band prepared for the 375th Parade.

Parade day The Grand 375th Parade steps off at 10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 31, from Portsmouth High School and will continue south on East Main Road to north on Turnpike Avenue and back to the school. “We’ve got three bands: The 88th Army Band out of Warwick, the Navy band and the Portsmouth High Schultzy's Facials Chemical Peels P I C K E D F R E S H E V E RY M O R N I N G It’s Worth the Trip!

PHS band director Ted Rausch said this parade is the earliest the group has ever appeared in public during marching band season. “It's kind of making me rethink our focus on how we do band camp (see story, page 1). I’ve had to spend a little more time on the parade block,” he said. Spectators can expect to see many local and state officials marching, as well as several VFW posts, the Girl Scouts and Boy Scouts, local clubs, sports leagues and businesses (workers from Scampi restaurant have offered to dress as lobsters). There will be about “five or six floats,” antique fire trucks and convertibles carrying VIPs, Sesame Street characters, the Pawtucket Red Sox mascot and more, said Mr. Wardwell. “We’ve got over 55 units. I think it will probably run close to an hour and a half,” he said. Later that day, at 2 p.m., the Artillery Company of Newport will perform a canon salute at Bristol Ferry Common (10 a.m.). And, at 5 p.m., the International Polo Grounds at Glen Farm will host the U.S. vs U.K. Polo Challenge. “For people in Portsmouth who have never seen a polo game, this would be the perfect time,” said Mr. Smith.

Monday, Aug. 12 Meryl L. McGaw, 29, of 65 Riverside Ave., was charged with disorderly conduct and obstructing an officer in execution of his duty. After receiving a report of a suspicious vehicle on Riverside Avenue around 1 a.m., Police Sgt. Stephen Burns found the car and pulled it over on Chase Road. Ms. McGaw was a passenger in the car, and police said she provided false information regarding her identification — four different names, two different dates of birth and two different partial Social Security numbers. After being asked to step out of the vehicle, she started screaming obscenities at an officer, according to police. Mitchell Guild of Wrentham, Mass. told police that a partially deflated dinghy that he left tied to a tree on the shoreline at Weaver Cove mooring field overnight had been stolen or was missing. The dinghy is more than 20 years old with a series of patches and a worn-out plywood floor. Wednesday, Aug. 14 Fernando E. Bracamonte, 51, of Springfield, Mass., was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test. The vehicle he was driving was pulled over on East Main Road near Foodworks around 6:20 a.m. after it was observed swerving and hitting the curb of the roadway, police said. A police officer suffered minor burns to her hand while removing a dog from a pickup truck that had caught fire around 9:40 a.m. Police found the red 1980 Suzuki truck in the northbound lane of West Main Road near Hedly Street engulfed in flames. The driver, Charles Kershaw, said he was traveling north on West Main Road when his vehicle began to smoke and then catch fire. Officer Maddie Pirri was on a road construction detail when she heard Mr. Kershaw yell for assistance. The dog was in the back portion of the truck and Officer Pirri burned her hand when she reached in the back portion of the truck to retrieve the dog, police said. Friday, Aug. 16 George Gomes Jr., 54, Seekonk, was charged with possession of schedule I, II, III, IV and V narcotics — a felony — after police responded to 22 Perrault St. for an “unwanted party” complaint around 12:45 a.m. Mr. Gomes was also served with a no-trespass order. Zachary B. Emery, 23, of 100 Almeida Terrace, Apt. 305, was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense), shortly before 2 a.m. Police said they found Mr. Emery hitchhiking on East Main Road, and he told them the car he had been driving hit a stone wall near the Verizon store. Police said they detected a moderate odor of alcohol on his breath. Police drove Mr. Emery to the scene of the crash, where the car was found to have sustained heavy front-end damage with both air bags deployed. Mr. Emery refused medical treatment. Michael P. Garcia, 23, of 2050 East Main Road, Apt. 3, was charged on an active bench warrant issued by Second District Court. Mr. Garcia entered police headquarters around 8:35 a.m. to turn himself in, police said. An ambulance and a Chevrolet Silverado traveling in opposite directions on Mt. Hope Bridge collided around 6:30 p.m. Police said the extended side mirrors of the vehicles struck each other on the narrow span. The New England ambulance was operated by Lauren Anslo of Johnston, who continued on her run and later reported the collision to police. The truck was driven by Manuel Benevides of Warren. Saturday, Aug. 17 Neil H. Cain, 20, of 24 Islington Ave., Portsmouth, was charged on an active warrant for his arrest for procurement/purchase of alcohol for a minor. Police with knowledge of the warrant, which stemmed from an July 26 underage drinking party on Sakonnet Drive, spotted Mr. Cain around 8:25 a.m. while on routine patrol in Common Fence Point. Cody J. Platt, 19, of 9 Gould St., Newport, was arrested around 3:45 p.m. on an active bench warrant issued by Second District Court. Police said he was a passenger in a vehicle that was stopped on West Main Road for having an expired inspection sticker. Sunday, Aug. 18 Peter Tardif, 55, of 502 Black Point Lane, was charged with felony assault with a dangerous weapon or substance, after police received a report of an assault that had taken place at a Black Point Lane home shortly after 8 p.m. According to police, the victim said a man riding a speeding, green all-terrain vehicle (ATV) intentionally struck her with the vehicle after she tried to approach him. The victim said she fell to the ground and the ATV’s front tire ran over her left leg, which received multiple lacerations. Police said there was a female passenger, between the ages of 14 and 16, on the back of the ATV. Mr. Tardif, accompanied by his attorney, turned himself into police headquarters at 9 a.m., police said. Monday, Aug. 19 Brittany K. Booher, 21, of 18 Algonquin Drive, Middletown, was charged with driving while intoxicated (first offense) and refusal to submit to a chemical test after police found a vehicle on fire on West Main Road just north of the Lehigh Overlook around 1 a.m. A witness said the operator had left the area in another vehicle, which was later stopped by Middletown police at Ms. Booher’s home. She told police she was driving home on West Main Road when her vehicle caught fire, but didn’t stay on the scene because she needed to get home to her infant son. Police said they detected a strong odor of alcohol on her breath, and she was swaying and appeared unsteady on her feet. Police received a report around 8:15 a.m. of a person laying down in the woods in the area of Lawton Brook Lane. Police said they found an extremely intoxicated 43year-old female laying topless and sleeping with her head on a rock. She had difficulty speaking and it was clear she was under the influence of either drugs or alcohol, police said. She was taken to Newport Hospital for further evaluation. Illegal dumper leaves evidence in trash It seems not everyone learned a lesson from Arlo Guthrie’s most famous song, “Alice’s Restaurant.” And that is this: If you’re going to dump trash illegally, make sure you don’t leave behind any garbage with your name and address on it. When he arrived to work at 6 a.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 13, Brian Woodhead, deputy director of the town’s Department of Public Works, found that garbage had been dumped into the bed of one of the DPW trucks. He called police, and after going through the trash they found two pieces of mail that contained the name and address of a Middle Road couple. Patrol Officer Jeffrey Cornelisse Jr. responded to the address and met a woman at the door. She said she wasn’t aware of the dumping, and contacted her husband. When police spoke to him, the apologetic 54-year-old man admitted to dumping the trash at DPW the day before because he couldn't get into the nearby transfer station, according to police. (The transfer station was closed on Monday, Aug. 12, because of Rhode Island's VJ Day.) The man told police “that he was upset that the compactor had been closed and that no signs were there stating so,” the police report stated. The man, who promised not to repeat his behavior, was not charged. — Jim McGaw Woman charged under state’s social host law Up to 100 high school students at party with alcohol, police say Police arrested a 52-year-old local woman last week after “dozens” of cans of beer and other alcoholic beverages were found at a party at her home that was attended by 80 to 100 high school students, police said. Melissa A. Baasch, 52, of 59 Raynham Ave., was charged Aug. 15 with furnishing or procuring alcohol for a minor. Police Lt. Brian Peters said the charge falls under Rhode Island’s social host law. The charge stems from a complaint about a loud party at Ms. Baasch’s home at about 9:20 p.m. on Aug. 12. On that night, police said they found 80 to 100 high school students surrounding a backyard stage where a deejay was playing music. After ordering them to shut down the music, police said they observed what appeared to be Sour Apple Pucker and several beer cans drop to the ground. Three adults then walked over to the police: Ms. Baasch, Paul Donnelly and Victoria White. Mr. Donnelly said his son was the deejay and Ms. Baasch’s daughter was throwing the party. Both he and Ms. Baasch denied any alcohol was present, before Officer Jacob Silva pointed out the numerous beer cans on the ground. “Once the crowd of juveniles cleared the area, I observed dozens of empty and full beer cans as well as the bottle of Sour (Apple) Pucker alcohol,” Officer Silva wrote in his report. “I observed several backpacks full of beer cans and one contained a half-empty bottle of Burnett’s vodka … I observed several bags and backpacks around the property with alcohol in them, a beer pong table with beer, red solo cups and pong balls for the game.” The adults refused to answer questions, according to the report, although they continually stated “they did a bad job of supervising and had no idea there was alcohol at the party.” Opinion Portsmouth Times August 22, 2013 Page 9 EDITORIAL F LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Bike path traffic: Chicken or the egg? To the editor: The Aquidneck Island Planning Commission (AIPC) has announced that its interim bike path will be put in on Bristol Ferry and West Main roads after those roads have been reduced to two lanes from four. The R.I. Department of Transportation (RIDOT) has made no announcement whatsoever about those changes. So, clearly they are working together on this and AIPC knows something the rest of us don't. Whether it is the chicken or the egg, RIDOT or AIPC, reducing the number of traffic lanes on those roads will be a disaster for Portsmouth traffic on the West side. Tom Grieb Portsmouth Trees and Premier Toyota’s bottom line To the editor: Almost 700 species of trees are native to North America. Like most of God’s inventions, they provide a range of unique services. Trees release the oxygen that we breathe and enrich the earth’s soil. They provide food and shelter for living things, and they act as natural barriers against elements like sun, wind and erosion. We all know this. Conservation efforts on Aquidneck Island and in the state of Rhode Island abound. Unfortunately, we have a new neighbor, who does not seem to share our point of view. Premier Toyota of Middletown has acquired the property at 285 East Main Road. In the interest of a massive renovation, they’ve wreaked havoc on our landscape, its foliage, flora and trees. Besides office building changes, they are erecting a massive structure, called a retaining wall. I estimated it at about 350 feet long and more than eight feet high, made of large cement blocks with a five-foot chain link fence topping it off. To accomplish this dubious “improvement," Toyota uprooted a whole line of more than a dozen large, healthy blue hydrangea bushes, all the foliage around them, and all the little bunnies who hide in them. Even after I pleaded with the management not to, they murdered a perfectly healthy, beautiful 30-year-old shade tree, explaining that this action was for “erosion” purposes and that they would replace the tree. That perfectly formed tree was at the very end of their property. Working around the roots did not seem terribly difficult and the mighty oak, whose hungry mouth is pressed firmly against Mother Earth, can do a pretty good job of holding on to soil all by herself. I’m not quite sure why Toyota personnel suggested that they can simply “replace” a 30-year-old healthy oak. It is critically important that we protect our habitat. That tree may have “belonged” to Premier Toyota, but her shade that cools us, the nests of robins in her hair, the squirrels that store her fallen acorns for winter, and the air above her belong to all of us. By destroying even one healthy tree we contribute to the unhappy fact that we lose a species of life on this planet every half hour. We lose 3,000 acres of Amazon Rain Forest every single hour. What Premier Toyota management has done cannot be undone, except that perhaps we can encourage a different corporate outlook. Trees may not be important to Corporate America, but profit is. Many Toyota Prius customers own a Toyota Hybrid because we have an interest in a sustainable environment. Ecology-minded clientele might very well seek greener corporate pastures elsewhere, an action which will affect Toyota’s bottom line. I, for one, am simply asking Premier Toyota to be as conscientious about maintaining our beautiful Aquidneck Island as they clearly are about maintaining our automobiles. In return, I’m willing to remain a loyal and enthusiastic Prius owner. Patricia Healey Newport Beach butts or the sake of fresh air, clean sand and tender toes, beach operators need to draw a line in the sand against smoking. Bills before the Rhode Island legislature have attempted to accomplish just that for state beaches there. Massachusetts lawmakers would do visitors to Horseneck and other places a favor by following suit. Cigarettes are right up there with jellyfish, seaweed, green flies and sandwich-snatching seagulls in their ability to put a damper on a good beach day. There’s not much to be done about those other four, but cigarettes can and ought to be banned on the beach. An enterprising Portsmouth college student set out a few summers ago to gauge support for steps to rid beaches of this nuisance. Starting at her hometown Sandy Point Beach, she polled beach visitors about cigarettes. Most she talked to thought beaches would be well rid of cigarettes. That’s hardly a surprise. Good clean salt air is part of beaches’ allure and nothing quite taints that pleasure like a beach neighbor lighting up a smoke 20 feet upwind. Worse perhaps is what happens to the butts. ■ WHERE TO WRITE: Smokers protest that Portsmouth Times, 1 Bradford St. they’d never toss a butt Bristol, RI 02809. Letters may into the sand but the also be sent to: jmcgaw@eastbay evidence suggests othernewspapers.com wise. The Coastal Conservancy reports that 38 percent of trash removed from beaches and coastlines last year was smoking related. Laden with toxins and bacteria, cigarette filters are especially revolting bits of flotsam — bite size for toddlers and shore creatures. And for sheer pain, crab bite and jellyfish sting are no match for the misery of stepping on a buried but still smoldering butt. Smokers protest that they’ve already been hounded from most indoor places and now the cigarette vigilantes are forcing them out of the outdoors too. There is good reason for that ostracism— especially at beaches. People pay dearly to visit the beach and the price of admission to these public places ought to assure pristine air and sand. Cigarettes foul both of these so ought to be forbidden. PORTSMOUTH TIMES Established in 2013 Matthew Hayes, Publisher Jim McGaw, Editor R. S.

Page 12 Portsmouth Times August 22, 2013 Restaurant up from the ashes West Main Pizza, closed since April fire, re-opens doors Monday BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] Maria Spanos and Lindsey Rezendes were out getting their nails done Monday when they had a sudden craving for a buffalo chicken pizza and mozzarella sticks. Luckily for them, that was the same day West Main Pizza reopened its doors after having been closed since April 21 due to fire. “We were like, ‘We’re calling,’ We had to order something,” said Ms. Rezendes. “I was more excited about getting pizza than getting my nails done,” added Ms. Spanos. Before the fire, the two friends were coming in two or three times a week. Ms. Spanos said she felt bad for West Main’s employees when the restaurant was forced to temporarily shut its doors. “I have a lot of friends who work here,” said Ms. Spanos. “Everybody who works here, grew up here. Everyone knows each other. When I heard they were re-opening, I was really happy for them — and for us.” “Thank God,” added Ms. Rezendes, nodding in agreement. JIM MCGAW Peter Turano digs into a buffalo chicken pizza during lunch at West Main Pizza Monday, the first day of the restaurant’s re-opening. There were smiles all around Monday, and business was so good that empty parking spots were hard to come by. “It’s been a big day,” said Gary Rahilly, who owns the restaurant along with his wife, Emily. “It’s nice to be back in business, to see all the old faces again and people coming back in. We’re going from 11 (a.m.) until whenever the phone stops ringing tonight. We’ll just keep making them.” Much work was done on the building in the nearly four months it was closed, he said. “Ninety percent of the electrical has been replaced, and there was a lot of smoke damage. So all the insulation had to come out, all the ceilings had to come out — a lot of cleanup,” said Mr. Rahilly. Community support Although being closed for four months was tough on the Rahillys, they've seen an outpouring of support from patrons, who have flooded their Facebook page for weeks in anticipation of the re-opening. One loyal customer, Tara Juselis, even asked whether the restaurant was taking any pre-orders. Local businesses and organiza- tions have also come to the rescue, with the Portsmouth Business Association (PBA) making a sizable donation. “We met as a board and we all decided this was the right thing to do for someone in need,” said John Farley, PBA president. The restaurant has also received support from the Aquidneck Island Striper Team, R&R Construction, Toner Electric, Peters Plumbing, Visiting Nurse Association and others. “They’ve all been really good,” said Mr. Rahilly. Although Ms. Rahilly said there have been plenty of “sleepless nights,” the Hathaway School secretary said she was overwhelmed by the generosity of her co-workers. “Hathaway teachers and staff presented me with a gift box filled with gift cards from all over the island,” she said. Buffalo chicken pizza — a West Main favorite — was the biggest seller Monday. Mr. Rahilly said this, in fact, as he stood next to three separate patrons who had ordered the dish. One of them was Peter Turano, who chowed down with a grape soda at the ready. “I was coming in twice a week. I live right up the street,” he said. Mr. Rahilly said there’s still some work to be done inside the pizza place, which is known for its eclectic decor. East Bay Life Pages B1-B16 East Bay Life August 21-22, 2013 Page B1 Local sailors finish season strong BY CHRIST Y NADALIN [email protected] The Narragansett Bay Yachting Association (NBYA) wrapped up its junior sailing season with last week's Junior Race Week, held from Monday, August 12 through Wednesday, August 14 out of Sail Newport. Competing were Optimist, Club 420 and Laser Radial sailors. Firstyear Optimist racers (the Green fleet) and age-ranked (Red, White and Blue fleet) sailed on separate courses just off the shore of Fort Adams, while the Club 420 and Laser Radial sailors alternated starts on courses set just north of the Pell Bridge. A late start on Monday followed by steady rain Tuesday forced most of the action to Wednesday, which obliged with strong winds all day. The wind (and chop) proved to be a bit much for many Opti Greenfleeters, and the race committee brought them in shortly after noon. RWB Optis, Club 420's, and Laser Radials stayed out for what proved to be an action-packed afternoon of stiff breeze and stiffer competition, followed by a barbecue, carnival games and awards on the beach at Sail Newport.

"I began playing in kindergarden, taking lessons with my Dad," he says. He comes from a musical family: younger sister Meg played the piano, and his older brother Burke does too (and has actually stuck with it.) Burke also plays harmonica and occasionally joins Bryce for a few songs in a set, typically covers of performers like John Mayer, Eric Clapton, and Jack Johnson— 10 Magnolia at sunset Spread out a blanket, unpack the picnic basket, and feel the warmth of the summer sun setting over Narragansett Bay, all while soaking up a great musical performance by the Magnolia Cajun band, at Blithewold in Bristol.

FIVE $ UNDER "coffee house stuff," according to Bryce. The family, which also includes mom Suzanne, dad Jonathan and youngest sister Lucy, moved to Bristol from Holliston, Massachusetts a couple of years ago, arriving just in time for Bryce to finish 7th grade at the Kickemuit Middle School. Now that he's entering 10th grade, he's very much at home in Bristol (Suzanne is from Portsmouth) and enjoying his time at Mount Hope. "Biology is my favorite subject," he says. "And gym." Not surprisingly, he takes as many music classes as he can, and is part of the high school's guitar ensemble as well as the Rhode Island Philharmonic's Jazz Ensemble. He definitely wants to pursue music in college, and has thought about music school but is already clear that he needs something a little more well-rounded. "I like running cross country and Bryce O'Brien lacrosse, and now that Mount Hope has a sailing team I want to join that too," he says. "Music will have to be a part of whatever I do, though. I want to continue playing as much as possible." Bryce plays at Custom House Coffee in Portsmouth just about every week, at their Sunday open mike event, and lately began playing at Angelina's in Bristol on Sunday mornings. He has also played in various art galleries on ART nights, and recently performed at the Four Corners Festival and art show in Tiverton. Gary Fish, the proprietor of Custom House Coffee, introduced him to a group putting together an upcoming benefit concert on South Shore Beach in Little Compton, where he'll perform on the same bill as Barney Johnson, Colby and Keila, the Brush Your Teeth Band, the Fish & Chip Band, and Grace Morrison & RSO.

Those classes were dominated by sailors from the Ida Lewis Yacht Club and Brenton Cove (Sail Newport) programs. East Bay sailors did turn in strong performances in the Club 420 and Laser Radial classes, with Teddy Bjerregaard of Bristol and Aidan Scanlon of Warren taking second place in the Club 420 (D1) fleet; while Preston Duclos of Westport and Bret Milot of Bristol finished second and third in the Laser Radial competition. Recognition was also given to sailors for their overall performance during the NBYA season. Preston Duclos finished second overall in Laser Radials, while Tom Harden of Bristol finished third overall in Club 420 (D1) with a split crew of Cecily Adler of Providence and Nick Nadalin of Bristol; Nainoa Nathanson of Bristol finished first in Club 420 (D2) with a split crew of Marissa Bamonte of Tiverton and RICHARD W. DIONNE JR. Aidan Scanlon of Warren spent much of Wednesday suspended from his trapeze, trying to keep his boat flat in strong winds. A consistently strong performance would earn Aidan and his skipper Teddy Bjerregaard, of Bristol, overall second place in Club 420 (D1) at Junior Race Week. Kate Bjerregaard of Warren; and Ray Mangiarotti of Barrington and Hannah Kinder of Portsmouth finished third overall in Club 420 (D2). POLI-TICKS Are we secretly at war with China? I magine this. You have a neighbor that provides a toy for your child but it is coated in lead. He sells you a mobile home made from toxic construction materials. He offers you tainted food. He owns a lot of your neighborhood—so he can dictate local policies. He has stolen scores of Arlene intellectual VIOLET property from your business, including product blueprints, manufacturing plans, clinical trial results, pricing documents, negotiation strategies and other proprietary information. He then competes against you—using your own information and prod- uct. You confront him. He denies any wrongdoing. How long would you put up with this malfeasance? No doubt your tolerance wouldn’t be as long as that shown by the Obama administration toward China, which has poked the U.S. in the eyes on every one of these issues. Computer industry security experts have documented that China has stolen data from companies here and from the United States government with hardly a burp of protest from Washington. Indeed, hackers for a cyber-unit of China’s People Liberation Army are in full attack mode again after being outed just a few months ago. Analysts have proof that this unit hacked into Coca Cola—not for the soda’s formula but for information about its plans to acquire a company base in China.

Power grids in this country and Canada have been scoured, and detailed blueprints of half the oil and gas pipelines in North America have been purloined by the Chinese. So, it is very strange that President Obama cancels a confab with Vladimir Putin of Russia over the temporary asylum given to Mr. Snowden, who leaked government secrets, while he tolerates the wholesale looting of intellectual property by China. It’s one thing to be lathered up about piracy of movies and music; it’s quite another to have defense information and infrastructure grids hacked. This raises the question, of course, of why China is fixated on defense information and electric grid and computer satellite information? Is this a new type of war where a country defeats an enemy without stepping foot on its soil? Is this the new beachhead? It’s hard to understand the sanguine response of the United States. In turn, this lassitude lulls the public into thinking that everything is copasetic. I, for one, think that China is robbing us blind and is endangering the health of the population with this very successful guerilla attack on us. If you were to link all the opprobrious activities of China from its exportation here of products that kill, to its data access, to security and satellite information, one would see a much more malign pattern. To raise such an issue of intrusion invites criticism of paranoia. Big business remains muted in its criticism because of its lust for the billions of “consumers” in China’s marketplace. This benign neglect of China’s stealth policies might one day result in a change of everyone’s citizenship if these activities continue unabated. Who is looking out for this country’s interest? Certainly, not the politicians in Congress and the White House. East Bay Life August 21-22, 2013 Page B3 NO FLUKE Tautog season open; DEM begins construction of fishing pier at Colt State Park T autog season opened August 1 and will run through October 18 with a three fish/angler/day limit. The limit increases to six fish/angler/day from October 19 to December 15. The minimum size for tautog is 16” and there is a ten fish per boat limit (does not apply to party/charter boats). The Department Capt. Dave of EnvironmenMONTI tal Management, in partnership with The Nature Conservancy, announces the start of a reconstruction and expansion project for the fishing pier at Colt State Park in Bristol. The site will give disabled anglers and others improved access to one of the state’s prime fishing areas. The fishing pier was originally built in the 1980's. Although the structure of the existing pier will remain, all of the pier decking and railings will be removed and replaced, and the timber float and piles that anchor the float to the eastern side of the existing T-pier will be rebuilt and relocated. The expansion project also includes construction of an ADA accessible, 66-foot T-shaped extension to the existing pier. The rails will be lowered to a height of 34 inches in four handicap-accessible stations at the end of the pier extension to allow for fishing from a wheelchair. The new pier is expected to open in spring 2014. Where’s the bite Striped bass fishing slowed this week, except for off Block Island where it is very strong. Angler John Stavrakas said, “We went back to the SW ledge on Thursday...we had a great day fishing the flood tide, for bass to 38 lbs. mixed with bluefish. We fished eels and were halfway out on the ledge.” Ken Landry of Ray’s Bait & Tackle, Warwick said “We fished all over the Island but the southwest side was holding the big fish. Justin (White of White Ghost Charters) landed a 54 pound bass, the smallest fish we kept was 42 pounds.” Eric Appolonia of North Kingstown fished with his son Alex Sunday and said, “We fished with umbrella rigs and with amber colored tube (and worm) on the south west side of BI. Tube and worm produced the largest bass to 35 pounds.” Scup fishing has been strong with anglers often catching their limit (30 fish, ten inch minimum). They have been large too. Ken Landry noted that “There are scup everywhere in the Bay from Conimicut to the Bridges anywhere there is a rock pile or structure.” Fluke fishing remained strong when wind and tide were in line which was not often the case last week. The Francis Fleet party boats reported a strong fluke bite on Sunday and Monday. They also reports a strong black sea bass and cod fish bite. Visit them at www.francesfleet.com for more information. My wife Virginia caught a keeper fluke in the trough between Rose Island and the red channel maker this Sunday in a half hour window before wind direction changed and has been very good all around Block Island in 55 to 65 feet of water… Jacob Butterworth of Warren caught a 6.9 pound fluke on my boat last week while we were drifting eels off the SW corner of the island looking for bass. Tom Pelto and his father fished the mouth of the Sakonnet River just south of the 80 foot line last week for fluke and black sea bass, and on the RISAA blog Tom wrote: “By the time we stopped at the bottom of the tide we limited out on sea bass, all between three to five pounds, with smaller runts mixed in. Amazingly we hooked six fluke and five were legal fish.” Hooked on scup. Dr. David Taylor of Roger Williams University has studied the mercury content in fish commonly caught in this area for eight years. Dr. Taylor said, “Scup had significantly lower Hg (mercury) levels than striped bass, bluefish, and tautog… equivalent levels to black sea bass, and summer flounder.” made hooking fluke difficult.

"The abuse which has been thrown upon the state of Rhode Island seems to be greatly unmerited." Not much has changed since an anti-Federalist Rhode Islander wrote that line in 1787. It's hard enough living in a place that is constantly used as a diminutive unit of measure, and when the jobs reports come in it can get downright depressing. Though our summers may be full of "this is why we live here" moments, there are still a lot of less-esoteric, measurable things we are doing right here in Rhode Island. Here are just five of them: ■ Our kids aren't smoking. Not as many of them, anyway. Rhode Island ranks 3rd in the nation for tobacco use among young people, after Utah and Hawaii. Those clean-living kids in Utah will be hard to catch, but we're within striking distance of the healthy Hawaiians—and that is great news indeed. ■ We have nice smiles. More Rhode Islanders—nearly 80 percent—visited a dentist in the past year than the residents of any other state except four. We are listening to our dentists, and keeping them busy in return. ■ We aren't likely to be the location of the next season of "Teen Moms." Bested only by New Jersey and the other New England states, Rhode Island has one of the lowest birth rates among teenagers. Why is this important? Young maternal age typically leads to childhood poverty and all the ills that come along with it. ■ We respect our elders. According to a recent report on golocalprov.com, Rhode Island earns top marks for the quality of our nursing home care, according to a national advocacy group which determined that Rhode Island is one of only two states that scored an above average grade in every statistical measure. ■ We're a model of governmental transparency. 630wpro.com reported last month that Rhode Island ranked first on the socalled "Integrity Index," an analysis of laws regarding open meetings, freedom of information, whistleblower protection and conflict of interest, compiled by the Better Government Association. Anyone who wasn't born far from Rhode Island, yesterday, recognizes that this is more a "Most Improved" rather than "Lifetime Achievement" award (note other top scorers New Jersey, Louisiana, and Illinois.) Nonetheless, this is good news, and we'll take it.

DOWN TO EARTH Delicious no-fuss garden snacks BY KRISTIN GREEN his might sound a little sacrilegious coming from a diehard gardener, but I’m not really into growing food. I have little inclination to provide supplemental coddling for plants in my own garden. Not to mention, the complicated calculus of succession planting might make my head explode. Right about now I’d much rather be lazy as possible, sit back and watch my garden grow, and am perfectly content to buy vegetables from other local gardeners and farmers willing to do all of the necessary hard work to bring in a bounty. That said, I do have a deep appreciation for the edibles growing in my garden that put out with very little input from me. One of the first plants I threw in my front yard border was a gifted thornless blackberry (Rubus ulmifolius). I had no idea what I was in for but “blackberry” should have given me a clue. It is indeed a bramble, but because it’s truly thornless, rambunctiousness may be forgiven. Even so, a mixed border is perhaps not the ideal location for such a plant. No doubt it would be more productive given its own acreage and a trellis—and easier to harvest the berries if I didn’t have to dive headfirst into the iris, daisies, sea holly and teasel to find them. But I’m all for being rewarded with intensely sweet, sun-warm T berries while I’m weeding, and I’m not a pie maker anyway. Evidently, thornless blackberry’s only requirements are full sun and some judicious pruning/editing. Flowers and fruit occur on second year canes, while fresh canes shoot out of the ground in 6- to 8-foot arches every year. I whack those back by a third to half midsummer to encourage them to branch. (More branching equals more fruit next year.) Second years canes — the ones that fruited — should be cut to the ground in the fall. Suckers from these generous plants can be removed and transplanted anytime. My experience in moving a well-established clump with several thumb-thick canes leads me to believe it’s virtually un-killable. My other favorite garden snack is ground cherry (Physalis pruinosa) also known as husk cherry or dwarf cape gooseberry. The first time I ever peeled open the tomatillo-like papery husk and popped one in my mouth was at a farmer's market about 10 years ago. When I got home, I ate the pint-full standing at my kitchen counter. To me, they taste like an entire fruit salad in one bite, heavy on pineapple. Some time after discovery, and after settling into this garden, I must have eaten a handful out on the front stoop and dropped a few because the plants first appeared in pavement cracks there and have since sowed themselves like weeds at the front of every border. In fact, they are weeds. But I’m thrilled to have them and will always allow some to stay. They don’t seem to require much water — all they get in my garden is rain — but they do want plenty of sun to produce. The cherries form underneath a 1- to 2-foot tall by 2to 3-foot wide canopy of moleskin leaves and are ripe when the husks turn yellow-tan and drop off the stem into your paw. I should mention highbush blueberry (Vaccinium corymbosum) too, but the birds never leave me more than a handful of berries. I knew that going in (and knew I would never bother with netting). And I think they are such a handsome plant for moist shade and acidic soil (especially come fall) that the fruit is almost superfluous. But I’d be hard-pressed to imagine what could be more amazing than biting into a fresh blueberry straight from the garden. Meanwhile, my one Sungold tomato languishes in parched soil and the woodchuck ate the lettuce and Swiss chard long ago. But knowing how delicious homegrown snacks can be, I can see how it might be a slippery slope to growing, and maybe even properly tending, a few more edible plants next year.

Stir. Pour. Two Bristol residents are making their mark in the world beverage industry. Jason Kindness, a bartender at Malt restaurant in Newport, will be traveling to Las Vegas to compete in the GQ Magazine Bombay Sapphire Most Imaginative Bartender event in September; and Frank Martucci, general manager of beverage operations at Twin River Casino, is one of two U.S. representatives who will be headed to Prague, Czech Republic this week for the 62nd World Cocktail Championships and International Bartender's Association World Beverage Meeting. "There's a story behind every bottle, whether it's locally made or imported," Mr. Martucci said. "And bartenders need to understand what's in each bottle, how to mix things and make drinks with it, and serve responsibly." Mr. Martucci is also the vice president of the United States Bartender's Guild, and president of the Rhode Island chapter of which Mr. Kindness is a member. Mr. Kindness recently won the Bombay Sapphire state competition, where he concocted a Jane Pickens - a cocktail mixture of gin, homemade lavender bitters, pimm's, fresh lime juice and served with a candied lavender wand. "Classic old-school cocktails are often named after Broadway and movie stars of that day," Mr. Kindness said. "Jane Pickens was a singer from the '20s and '30s who also retired in Newport. She did a lot of philanthropy here. It's a well-balanced cocktail where you can still taste the gin but not be overpowered by it." Like the state competition, Mr. Kindness will be tasked to create a cocktail out of whatever fresh ingredients he is provided in Las FAST • EASY • CONVENIENT Four Generations of Quality Service!

"We can see a lot of people, younger or older, moving toward a more quality drink. Anything fresh is becoming more popular. People are not drinking as much nowadays and want more quality than quantity." There will be 61 countries represented at the Cocktail Championships and IBA meeting in Prague. Attendees will learn about the latest in beverage education, how to serve responsibly and how to make the industry better overall, Mr. Martucci said.

WARREN Jazzmine Napolitano of RE/MAX River's Edge in Barrington has been a real agent since 2007. The mother of three daughters, she takes pride in taking care of her family and her clients. A resident of Rumford, Jazzmine loves the East Bay and all its many magical little communities. When she is not working (which is most of the time), she enjoys spending time with family and friends, cooking and tending her vegetable garden. She is licensed in both Rhode Island and Massachusetts. WHERE DID YOU GROW UP? "I grew up on the beautiful East Side of Providence right on College Hill near Brown University." FIRST JOB? "My first job at age 14 was on famous Thayer Street at Taco Maker, where I worked until I was 18 years old. I begged my parents to allow me to work after school, as I loved working with people. I became the youngest part-time manager at Taco Maker by age 16. I am really proud of this. I think it was then I knew I wanted to work with the public, and I fell in love with the diversity of humanity." BROTHERS AND SISTERS? "As the youngest of five children, I learned early and quickly about the importance of helping others, and that there is no better way to show respect for people than to put everything you have into helping them succeed. This is why I chose a career in real estate." HIGHER EDUCATION? "After graduating from Rutger University with a degree in Finance and Business Management, I was hired as the regional manager of the mortgage division for Conseco Financial out of Wakefield, Mass. As a young executive, I built a keen understanding of rates, equity and investments. I have counseled clients in rebuilding and repairing credit, discussing terms and financial mortgage goals, as well as purchasing and refinancing both residential and commercial properties." WHEN DID YOU COME BACK TO RHODE ISLAND? "In 2002 I decided to head home to Rhode Island. I moved to the Pristine North Farms in Bristol. Oh, how I love Bristol! I started a new job working for First Allegiance Financial out of Rumford as the Jazzmine Napolitano RE/MAX River’s Edge 401-225-7070 vice president. It was at First Allegiance I learned about marketing and designing sales strategies for my team, such as networking in our communities, utilizing second languages, obtaining referral sources and searching town hall records. I really learned about the power of internet marketing and was able to build and maintaine a database of customers that closed numbering over 920 clients." EAST BAY CONNECTION? "In 2003, when my oldest daughter was 7, we moved to the extraordinary town of Barrington. I spent River’s Edge summers in Barrington as a child and even went to Camp Cedarwood. Barrington is very dear to my heart." WHY REAL ESTATE? In 2007 I decided that I had enough of sitting behind a desk and I wanted to use all of my skills and training to become a real estate agent. I am happy to say, I have found my calling. I have always been a strong networker, and my specialties include relocation, retirement, luxury properties and first-time buyers. BEACH OR POOL? "I love the ocean but, if you have a pool, I'll take a dip!" WHAT IS YOUR DREAM VACATION? "I would like to cruise everywhere with my family. It would be fun to swim, fish, jet ski, parasail, dine on the deck. Plus, there is no cell phone reception on any great sea, so you can really escape and enjoy." BUCKET LIST ITEMS? "Learn to play poker and bridge, have a real estate reality show, go to a Sumo wrestling match, learn to play golf, walk across hot coals, eat chocolate in Switzerland, go para-sailing in Acapulco, have a book published, host a FABULOUS Christmas party for people with nowhere to go and of course sleep in a castle!" WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE FOOD TO MAKE? "Mama's homemade shepherds pie." WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE IF YOU HAD A CHOICE? "If I had to choose a place other than Rhode Island, I would pick Australia." ARE YOU A DOG OR CAT PERSON? "It depends on which dog or cat. They have their own personalities, like people. I like both, but only if they are nice to me." The Sign you want. The Agent you need.

Page C9 East Bay Classifieds January 30-February 1, 2013 Eastbay August 21-23, 2013 East Bay Classifieds Page C9 WeeklyWheels Classifieds EASTBAYClassifieds.com August 21-23, 2013 Page C9 Texting and driving is a deadly epidemic O f the many dangers on the road, text messaging while driving is one that is entirely preventable. Putting down your phone when driving can prevent thousands of injuries and even death.According to Students Against Destructive Decisions and Liberty Mutual Insurance Group, instant and text messaging while driving tops the list of driver distractions. Evidence gathered by these organizations has suggested that more than 3,000 vehicle fatalities and about 300,000 collisions a year can be attributed to texting conversations while the vehicle is in motion. The Web site Distraction.gov notes that in 2011, 3,331 people were killed in crashes involving a distracted driver and an additional 387,000 were injured in motor vehicle crashes involving a distracted driver. Some people are now saying that texting while driving is equally as dangerous as driving while impaired by alcohol or drugs in terms of interfering with individuals' driving abilities. Texting creates a crash risk 23 times greater than driving while not distracted, according to the United States Department of Transportation. Although it may seem like a driver's eyes are off the road for only a nominal amount of time, texting generally requires about 4 seconds, which is 4 seconds drivers are not looking at the road. At average driving speeds, that can mean driving about 360 feet, or the length of a football field, without looking. But messaging while driving is not the only danger associated with phones and operating a motor vehicle. A study from Carnegie Mellon University found that using a cell phone while driving reduces the amount of brain activity associated with driving by almost 40 percent. Therefore, texting or simply speaking on a phone while driving involves a manual distraction, a visual distraction and a cognitive distraction. All of those distractions add up to trouble. Many areas have banned the use of cell phones while driving. But such laws are difficult to enforce. A 2009 Pew Research study on teens and distracted driving found that nearly half of all people between the ages 12 to 17 have at one time ridden in a vehicle where the driver was engaged in texting. Fiftytwo percent of phone-owning teens ages 16 to 17 said they have talked on a cell phone while driving. In response to the rise of texting-while-driving accidents, some organizations have taken an eyeopening approach to educating drivers about the dangers of texting. In 2010, AAA of the Carolinas started airing an evening public service announcement showing graphic images of a teen driver texting then getting involved in a 3-car accident. The ending slogan stated, "You drive, you text, you die." Other campaigns focus on the positives instead of the negatives, with Facebook groups promoting people who choose not to text and drive. Any activity that takes a driver's attention away from the road can lead to acci- dents. This includes eating, changing radio stations or addressing unruly children in the back seat. Making an effort to reduce distractions — especially putting down the phone while in the car — can considerably reduce accident rates.
