Times Sakonnet eastbayri.com THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2014 VOL. 48, NO. 38 $1.00 Sewers hit stone wall; votes delayed indefinitely BY TOM K ILLIN DALGLISH [email protected] Blueberry b o n a n za PHOTOS BY RICHARD W. DIONNE JR. Dick Hart plucks ripe blueberries from his Tiverton bushes. Sunny summer yielded bumper berry crop BY TOM K ILLIN DALGLISH B [email protected] lueberry bushes have showered roadside stands and markets in the Tiverton, Little Compton and Westport area with a bumper crop of blueberries as the season comes to a close. This has been the best year in a long time, says Dick Hart of Tiverton, who has about 200 bushes on his 10-acre homestead, that he picks by hand. He sells pints of the little berries at a stand in front of his home at 4461 Main Road, south of the intersection of Pond Bridge Road. Mr. Hart, 84, started planting his bushes in the late 1970's. He rattles off the names of the different types of blueberries he grows — Bluerays, Bluecrop, Dukes, Patriots, and Jerseys. Some are early, some are late, some are small, others plump. See BLUEBERRIES Page 16 TIVERTON — The muchanticipated sewering plan for three priority areas in north Tiverton, and voting by residents in those areas, has come to a halt. It will take quite a while to resolve a series of stumbling blocks that now lie in the project's path. Meanwhile, any bidding, contacting and installation of sewers has all been put on hold. Step one in the hold-up came Monday night, when the newly organized Tiverton Wastewater District (TWWD) voted to postpone voting in all three priority neighborhood areas. "It's indeterminate right now for how long," the voting should be postponed, said TWWD Chairman Leroy Kendricks, as the board of directors was about to vote to postpone. "We should reconvene about it in about a month." The delay in voting impacts about 757 households — in the Riverside area (557 households), in the Robert Gray neighborhood (77 households), and in the Bay Street neighborhood (123 households). All three areas back in June were thought to be headed to a vote in a few weeks. If there was a bright moment at Monday night's board of directors' meeting, it was the celebration of the first day that the TWWD office was open for business at its new office space at 86 Main Road (Tel. 401-6256701), directly across the street from the Tiverton Fire Department headquarters. Nancy Andrews and her son Tyler, 6, stop to buy blueberries from Mr. Hart's farm stand. See SEWERS Page 8 Page 2 Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 OPENING FRIDAY!!!! NOW HIRIN G Light, bright — making things with light Lighting schemes for about 25 different days programmed for Sakonnet Bridge BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] 401-624- 9274 The Neves family, long respected business operators in the area are pleased to announce the reopening of: Three Ducks Car Wash Snack Shop, and Gasoline Outlet This newly renovated facility has several new features. The California Designed “Bubblizer”, which not only blankets your car with cleaning foam, but provides quite a show for young and old when entering the wash. The kids won’t want Happy Meals anymore; they’ll want to see the “Bubblizer” instead. Another truly innovative feature of the wash is the “Rowafil Biological Reclaim System”, manufactured in the Netherlands. The reclaim system cleans and recycles 2000 gallons of water per hour. The system is entirely dependant on the natural bacteria action of Mother Nature to consume the wax, soaps, grease and oils removed from the vehicles. Patented liquid enzymes are fed into the wash water to speed the cleaning process allowing this reclaim to save hundreds of thousands of gallons of fresh water, while also protecting the environment. Other new features include the addition of an energy efficient five motor drying system, automatic tire shine applicator, and new “poodle brush” wheel and tire cleaner. The Snack Shop features “Green Mountain Coffee, Arrudas Dairy Products, cigarettes, ice, propane, ATM, and a variety of snacks for the “sweet tooth.” Lottery is expected to be added by the end of the year. The new “United gasoline facility”, will feature highly competitive self serve gasoline and diesel products. The facility will be open Mon -Fri 6am-9pm (wash 7am-6pm), Sat and Sun 7am-9pm, (wash 7am-6pm). The facility will be managed by Matt St.Amour, an experienced customer care professional.

Expires 10/1/14 Drivers have either been dazzled or bewildered by the colorful light shows on the new Sakonnet River Bridge. Well, brace yourself. You ain’t seen nothing yet. The Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority (RITBA) has programmed specific color schemes for ON THE WEB no fewer than 25 Find more different holidays photos of last and special days week’s lighting display on throughout the the Sakonnet year. One of them River Bridge took place Mononline at day night when eastbayri.com RITBA, a community partner for “Light it Red for Lymphoma,” lit up the bridge in red for National Blood Cancer Awareness Month. Drivers and residents who live near the bridge got their first taste of the amped-up lighting displays the evening of Sept. 10, when subcontractors to Commonwealth Engineers — the engineers on the bridge project —set up an Apple laptop on a folding table near the bike path on the span’s Portsmouth side. Scott Stipetic, senior system integrator for Barbizon Lighting Company of Woburn, Mass., and Tom Ladd, a programmer and subcontractor for Barbizon, tested numerous color themes and programmed them for RITBA’s future use. They arrived around 1 p.m. and didn’t leave until shortly before 10 p.m. “They had given us a list of colors they thought they could use for various holidays,” explained Mr. Stipetic. “We showed them the colors they thought they wanted and then we tweaked them via computer control to meet the color everyone thought they had in mind. We gave them a select color JIM MCGAW One of many different color schemes that was tested on the Sakonnet River Bridge last week. palette they could select from.” They agreed on color schemes for at least 25 special days and holidays, ranging from Halloween (orange and purple) and Thanksgiving (gold, orange and brown) to Columbus Day (medium green, white). “Now it’s in its default state, so it’s always going to be a medium blue when it’s not a holiday,” he said. Expect a real light show on New Year’s Eve, when you’ll see a “rainbow effect” on the bridge, according to Mr. Stipetic. “For one hour, from 11:30 to 12:30, there’s actually going to be motion on the lights so you’l actually see the lights change,” he said. Now that the lights have been programmed, the Turnpike Authority will be able to control the displays over its closed network system, Mr. Stipetic said. “It’s all done over the internet.” Next year, when the old bridge is scheduled to come down, you can expect even more lights on the new span, he said, noting that the concrete pilings on the new span will have LEDs installed near the water. Despite the elaborate lighting schemes planned, Mr. Stipetic said drivers will probably never get to see the bridge truly strut its stuff. “Each light pole has two LED engines in it — an upper and lower,” he said. “The pole can actually be divided into two different colors, but the DOT feels that’s a little busy for drivers. The bridge is capable of a lot, but this is far as they wanted to go.” Responds to critics Mr. Stipetic said he and Mr. Ladd had plenty of supporters while they were on the bridge Sept. 10. “We had people honking and people yelling out their windows about how pretty it was,” he said. Informed that some residents have complained about light pollution or that the displays are an unnecessary expense, Mr. Stipetic responded by urging people to simply come out to see the lights themselves. “All you’ve got to do is drive over. It’s quite an experience,” he said, adding that the views from below the bridge are even better. “It looks stunning from the water.” Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 Page 3 Tiverton seniors get donated RIDE bus BY TOM K ILLIN DALGLISH [email protected] TIVERTON — Tiverton seniors just took delivery of a "new" used bus, free of charge, courtesy of the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority (RIPTA), which donated the vehicle to the town. The bus is a 2006 Ford RIDEtype vehicle with 56,000 miles on its engine, said Tiverton Senior Center Director Janice Gomes. The town has been without bus service for seniors since last March, when the former vehicle — a 1997 Ford RIDE-type bus — broke down. Ms. Gomes said she expects the new vehicle will be put into service in about two weeks. The return of bus service to seniors, Ms. Gomes said, "means they'll be able to go to the bank, and run errands. It means lots of independence." Once service is restored, the bus will continue with the runs it had made prior to the stoppage last March. "We will do door-to-door pickups," Ms. Gomes said, in addition to making scheduled departures from the senior center. On Tuesdays, the bus will run to the Fall River area (Wal-Mart, Stop & Shop, etc.). On Wednesdays, it will make turns through Tiverton (to banks, the post office, drug stores, Seabra, etc.). On the second Friday of each month, Ms.Gomes said, the bus will run to the Dartmouth Mall area, and on the fourth Friday, it will go to the Swansea Mall. It will not make runs on Mondays ur Thursdays. For more information about stops and times of service, departures, pick ups, and return, call the Senior Center at 625-6790. The costs for the driver (Raymond Benoit), maintenance, repairs, and insurance will run about $15,000 per year, she said. The town provides the service to 22 people who use the bus, 18 of whom do so on a regular basis. The bus has a capacity of about 20 passengers. When the bus is not in use it will be garaged at either the DPW or the Senior Center, she said. Little Compton bus Tiverton Department of Public Works employee Ray Benoit uses a power washer to take off the decals on the new bus. its seniors through its budget, she said. The bus is currently parked at the Department of Public Works (DPW) where it is being striped and labeled with the words "Tiverton Senior Center." A DPW mechanic (Paul Russo) inspected the bus at RIPTA's garage before the town took delivery. Ms. Gomes said there are about The Town of Little Compton is in the final stages of acquiring a bus for its seniors, having recently advertised for a purchase with bid openings scheduled soon. The matter will be on the Town Council agenda for this week, said council member Charles Appleton Jr., who is acting as council liaison to the community in the effort to establish the service. The published request for bids says the town is soliciting for "a new 10-14 passenger Van or MiniBus similar to a Ford E-350 MiniBus or other comparable vehicle with a wheel-chair lift included." Although total costs will not be known until bids are opened, the town has previously estimated they will be in the range of $48,000, said Mr. Appleton. The town has already obtained a grant in the amount of $25,000 from the Rhode Island Foundation to acquire an appropriate vehicle, and State Representative Dennis M. Canario has provided the town with a $2,000 legislative grant. Mr. Appleton said the plan is to submit a grant request to the state through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) process for the balance. In late 2012, a study funded by the Newport County Fund of the Rhode Island Foundation demonstrated the need for senior transportation in Little Compton. Among its findings was the fact that 23 percent of the town 's population is over age 65. "This is the highest percent of all municipalities in Rhode Island and far exceeds the statewide average of 14.4 percent," said the study. CANDIDATE STATEMENTS Sell the Industrial Park, build our tax base I was talking with a friend as we rode past the Tiverton Industrial Park and he commented about the empty lots. I told him over a dozen businesses had tried to buy lots in the park but were told no by the town council at that time. Several months ago, the council had a bill to pay from the Realtor who represented the town. He stated that he had prospective buyers for the park, but again the town said no sale. So we paid the Realtor about $14,000 as contracted. If the lots were sold he would have made a commission. Because the council didn't sell the lots, the taxpayers had to pay! I have a plan to sell our Industrial Park and increase the tax base. That means taxes don't go up every 365 days. I'm not a candidates who says one thing and does another. If you want taxes to go up every year, don't vote for me. If you want more burdensome ordinances with fees for everything, don't vote for me. If you want to spend $150,000 for a planning dept., don't vote for me. Tiverton needs to increase it's commercial tax base and the Industrial Park is a good place to do it. We need jobs and tax revenue to pay for our aging schools, roads and municipal needs. Joseph R Sousa Candidate for Tiverton Town Council Can't support Tiverton Crossings plan as presented As a candidate for Tiverton Town Council, I know that voters are interested in my perspective on the Tiverton Crossings Proposal. After reading this, some will call me antibusiness and I probably won’t convince them otherwise. However, if I had to vote today on approving this proposal given our current Comprehensive Plan and zoning ordinances, I don’t believe I could support it. While the developers spoke about how this would integrate with the rest of Tiverton, how it fits with Tiverton’s character and how it would enhance business development elsewhere in Tiverton, they failed to persuade me with facts. The only way they can move forward is by SAKONNET TIMES (USPS #477-340) 1 Bradford St, Bristol 245-6000 • 253-6055 (fax) Mailing address: P.O.

General Assembly broke camp leaving important bills hanging without action. Rep. Patricia Morgan (R-West Warwick, Coventry, Warwick) sponsored two bills for the Republican caucus: one to exempt the state income tax on Social Security and two, exemption of the first $15,000 of pension income from sources such as government, military, private or 401Ks/ IRAs. These exemptions would cost approximately $25M each, a small amount compared to the $8.7B state budget. Retirees choosing to stay and spend in RI versus leaving for friendlier, non-tax states and additional income and sales tax revenues would help off-set the cost of these exemptions. These exemptions provide money for Rhode Islanders to spend, stimulating R.I.’s economy. Also important, this extra money benefits seniors, struggling with the escalating cost-of-living and need the help. Our General Assembly failed to pass these good bills, voting to hold for further study. Forty-four states already have some sort of pension income tax exemption; that should be study enough. Time has come for R.I. to join them. If elected, I will work for this or similar type tax relief. Norbert Rattay Republican House District 71 School Committee needs to seek the truth As a mother of four children, the biggest lesson I try to instill in my children is honesty. Everyone makes mistakes, but it is important to own up to them and make it right. I do not believe in ignoring issues within our school system, even if they look unfavorable for our school. We need to learn to acknowledge them and find a solution. We need to work as a team — parents, school committee, teachers , students and administrators — listening to problems and coming up with solutions that work for all. Often times at school committee meetings, facts are presented by parents and community members .Excuses, mistruths and blank stares are given back. I would like to see this change. I would like to be part of a school committee that gets to the truth of the matter. By doing our own investigation of the problems at hand, we will make up our own mind and come up with the best solution for the all the children of this town.

"The last we saw it it was headed toward Common Fence Point in Portsmouth," Mr. Priestley said. Not the 27-foot former Olympic class Soling, this is the radio controlled model version, the type that members of the Mount Hope Bay Model Yacht Club race on Thursdays from the shore at the Villages at Mount Hope Bay. "Something went wrong with the radio controls, happens sometimes," Mr. Priestley said. It happened to another boat during the same race but that boat wound up snagged on a boat mooring and was rescued. When boats do escape, someone usually rows out with a chase boat to retrieve it but this time Mr. Some of the Mount Hope Bay Model Yacht Club fleet in action off the Tiverton shore. Priestley's boat had too big a head start. The group set out later in a bigger powerboat and scoured the Common Fence Point shore and out into Mount Hope Bay but found nothing. Like most others in the club, Mr. Priestley built his blue-hulled, white-decked Soling from a kit. Named Eagle, it has a distinctive eagle's head on its jib. "A lot of time and effort goes into these boats so I'm sure hoping someone found it," Mr. Priestley said. The boats are one meter long, just over three feet. Anyone who finds it is asked to call Mr. Priestley at 486-6807. While he was at it, Mr. Priestley put in a plug for the sailing club, which he said welcomes visitors and new members to its weekly practices and Thursday races from the Tiverton shore. "We have about 15 boats and have a great time — it's a really good group," he said. The season starts in May and runs into September. They also have occasional regattas with other clubs, including one out on Martha's Vineyard.

School Committee Chairman Donald Gomez was the sole member of the committee to vote against rescission. Mr. Quinn had made the motion (seconded by committee member David Beauchemin) the month before on Aug. 13 to grant the bonus. Immediately after the August school committee action granting the bonus, some residents raised objections. Among the objections were allegations that the offer of a bonus had not appeared on the agenda, and that in any case the funds should have gone to supporting classroom activities and the students. Whatever the objections, Superintendent Crowley "decided immediately she didn't want it," said Chairman Gomez, and sent an e-mail to school committee members saying she wasn't going to accept it, that she wanted the funds to be directed towards the students, and asking that the action be rescinded at the committee's next meeting, which was last Wednesday. "She certainly deserved it," Mr Gomez said of the bonus, "working way beyond her hours and volunteering her time." The bonus of $5,000, he said, doesn't affect any other particular line item in the budget. Mr. Gomez said the objections to the bonus "became a big stink," and "made a mountain out of a molehill. It's an election year." At its Aug. 13 meeting, the school committee also voted to renew Superintendent Crowley's employment contract, awarding her a two percent salary increase, from $59,824 to $61,020, for July 1, 2014 through June 30, 2015. The contract provides that the "work year shall be the equivalent of 90 days or such amount as set or allowed by law for a retiree." Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 Page 5 Brothers, one from Tiverton, plead in plot to fly pot to RI Two brothers, one from Tiverton, the other from Utah, have pleaded guilty to trying to fly 239 pounds of marijuana to Rhode Island in a small plane. Benjamin J. Daniels, 37, of West Bountiful, Utah, pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Providence Monday to participating in a conspiracy to fly marijuana to Rhode Island from Pennsylvania in December 2013, said United States Attorney Peter F. Neronha and Michael S. Shea, acting special agent in charge, Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) for New England. Appearing before U.S. District Court Chief Judge William E. Smith, Benjamin Daniels pleaded guilty to conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute 50 kilograms or more of marijuana. His brother, Michael Daniels, 32, of Tiverton, admitting to his role in the conspiracy, pleaded guilty on August 28, 2014, to conspiracy to distribute and possess with the intent to distribute 50 kilograms or more of marijuana. According to information presented to the court, agents in Pittsburgh investigated a single-engine aircraft found at an airport in New Castle, Penn. A court-authorized search of the aircraft led to the discovery of 12 sealed boxes marked “Sun Max, Hot Water Solutions” which contained a total of 239 pounds of marijuana. HSI agents determined that Benjamin Daniels arranged for the pilot to fly the packages to New England for delivery, either to Benjamin Daniels or a person designated by him. Federal agents followed the shipment from Pennsylvania to North Central Airport in Smithfield, RI. Once on the ground, at the direction of Benjamin Daniels, the pilot made arrangements to transport the boxes to a hotel in Lincoln. At the hotel, the pilot was instructed by Benjamin Daniels to meet a person who looked just like him. Fed- eral agents watched as Michael Daniels pulled into the hotel parking lot, met with the pilot and began loading the boxes into a rented vehicle that he was driving. HSI agents arrested Michael Daniels, and seized the 12 boxes of marijuana and $4,694 in cash found on Michael Daniels’ person. Michael Daniels is scheduled to be sentenced by U.S. District Court Chief Judge William E. Smith on November 14. Benjamin Daniels is scheduled to be sentenced on December 19. Conspiracy to distribute and posses with the intent to distribute fifty kilograms or more of marijuana is punishable by statutory penalties of up to 20 years in federal prison, a fine of up to $1 million, and a term of supervised release of up to life, with a minimum mandatory term of three years. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul F. Daly Jr. Tiverton hires code enforcement officer BY TOM K ILLIN DALGLISH [email protected] TIVERTON — The Town Council last week unanimously approved the appointment of Christopher J. Synnott — and ratified a three-year employment contract with him — to serve as the town's code enforcement officer. The position, as the town's building and zoning official, had formerly been held for nine years by Gareth Eames, who retired on March 7. It has been formally vacant (though filled by a parttime interim official) for six months while a search for a replacement took place. Mr. Synnott began work in his new position on Monday, Sept. 8. "I'm very excited," Mr. Synnott said. "It's a great town. I have really been impressed." The appointment may help break a logjam in town government. "We've been stuck on a number of land use and planning issues and customer service issues, including making the zoning code more transparent," said Town Administrator Matt Wojcik. "And having a certified floodplain manager is definitely a step forward." New, and very detailed, building standards and requirements for coastal areas after recent hurricanes, and out of concern for rising ocean levels, require additional levels of expertise of local officials. A state report of town officials' salaries for 2013 listed the salary for the position, at the time it was held by Mr. Eames, at $55,000. Mr. Synnott's contract calls for an annual salary of $62,500 during a six-month probationary period, rising to $65,000 thereafter. The contract also requires Mr. Synnott to secure, during the probationary period, all credentials required to serve as the town's code enforcement officer. Those credentials include certification as a state building official and certification as a floodplain manager. Until Mr. Synnott gets officially certified — a process he estimates will take about 90 days — the "signing off" on building permits and inspections must be conducted by the interim office-holder. This is because he town's insurance carrier, the Interlocal Trust, requires that an "appropriately qualified individual" — meaning someone who is certified — function in that position and sign off on the permits and inspections. Mr. Synnott's duties will include supervising the overall operation of the Tiverton building and zoning office, and the activities of the electrical, plumbing, and mechanical inspectors. Mr. Synnott, 49, attended Palomar College in San Marcos, California, and studied engineering principles as a student with Wood University. He holds a number of licenses. He has worked in the construction industry for 27 years. Mr. Synnott lives with his wife and three children in Middletown.

'It's none of your business what we are asking/offering — just trust us. We're the ones being reasonable.' Such is the case in the contract showdown between Westport teachers and the school committee. Teachers accuse the school committee of reneging on a deal that they say was fair and affordable for teachers and town alike. The committee counters that there never really was an agreement; that a preliminary deal was more than the town could afford. Both sides use that word 'fair' a lot. When they picketed a meeting recently, union members all held up signs that read, "Fair Contract Now." And in its reply this week to union statements, the committee replied that it seeks a settlement that is "fair to all interested parties." The details are more elusive.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Better communication would benefit our school To the editor: Communication is the key to success! After attending a Little Compton School Committee meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 10, I was struck by the fact that better communication would have avoided a lot of the problems that seemed to be happening within the Little Compton School system, especially in regards to the recent scheduling issue that occurred after the start of school, September 2, which affected students, their parents and the teachers. For several days, students were not given timely or complete information on what classes they could expect in subsequent days, anticipating homework due dates was impossible, and preparing for classes was challenging. While I understand that life gets in the way and prevents things from happening as we intend them to, I think it would have been greatly beneficial had the school administration sent home a letter to the parents explaining the situation in detail regarding the lack of schedules provided to the students. There were several things that escalated as a result of not sending a letter or providing another means of communication to the parents. The students lacked critical information. Kids looked to their parents for answers and parents had to get bits and pieces of information from their kids without direction from the school. Parents got upset and aggravated by having to wait until Wednesday during the School Committee meeting or after to get an explanation. Parents were not given an explanation as to why the schedule changed repeatedly or what the game plan was for the following days. Other than calling the administration, parents had to wait two days until the School Committee meeting to have it addressed. Not every parent is able to attend the school committee meetings, so those parents who were not present were not aware of the explanation or a resolution. One of the school committee members suggested calling the administration directly to address the issue. Although I respect the member's response, I do not believe that it's an efficient solution by any means. I also highly doubt that the administration wants to have the same conversation with 245 sets of parents. A letter answering all of those inquiries would have provided the parents with the necessary information, peace of mind, and some strategy as to how to prepare their kids for a challenging week at school. I am providing this suggestion in hopes that when a difficult situation arises we handle it as a team, with full transparency and full communication. This not only applies to the recent situation with the school schedules, but in general. I found it very difficult to hear what the school members and others are saying at the school committee meetings and because of this lack of audible information, meeting attendees must ask questions. I can understand maybe that the School Committee feels as though the public is questioning their judgment, but it is often not the case. If more comprehensive information regarding decisions and discussion was provided to the public, maybe we would have a greater understanding of the decisions that are made. This recommendation does not imply that parents do not trust the teachers and administrators; it's simply stating a gap in communication and providing a means of filling it. The old saying goes "it takes a village" but if the villagers aren't providing all the information to each other we can't get much done. Lily von Trapp Derbyshire Little Compton Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 Page 7 Bon voyage, Prudence Island Ferry A&R Marine takes over Bristol-Prudence runs BY JIM MCGAW [email protected] Christine Heal greeted Eric Leite with a bottle of red wine and a hug Sunday morning at Prudence Island Ferry’s Bristol landing. “Thanks for everything you’ve done for my family,” she told Mr. Leite, who said goodbye to passengers Sunday after 18 years at the helm of the ferry as captain — a job that’s taken him from Bristol to Prudence Island and back an estimated 45,000 times. Sunday marked the last day of service for Bruce Medley’s Prudence Island Ferry, which had been the sole provider of ferry service to the island since the mid-’80s. (For the record: Ed “Hap” Aldrich reported on his Facebook page that Joey Bullard was the last walk-on passenger and Fred Stevenson, a lifelong islander, drove the final vehicle aboard the ferry as it departed Prudence for its last run on Sunday.) The new carrier, A&R Marine — doing business as Prudence & Bay Islands Transport — took over the service Monday morning (see related story). The company received approval from the R.I. Public Utilities Commission’s Division of Public Utilities and Carriers to operate back in February. Mr. Medley wanted the Town of Bristol to renew its lease with him for the Bristol pier — property Mr. Medley sold to the town last year — but instead it granted A&R Marine the contract. That left Prudence Island Ferry without a dock on the other end of the Prudence run — at least for now. “It’s the end of an era,” said Mr. Leite as he manned the Mt. Mansfield on one of its last runs to Prudence Sunday. “It’s too bad it happened this way. I don’t want to bash the owner or anything like that, but if things were talked about more and people were educated earlier on that whole authority thing we were trying to do earlier, I think the outcome would have been different.” In April 2013, Mr. Medley notified Portsmouth Town Administrator John Klimm by e-mail that he planned to stop ser- JIM MCGAW “It’s the end of an era. It’s too bad it happened this way,” said Eric Leite, captain of the Prudence Island Ferry, while he took what may be the last of an estimated 45,000 roundtrip runs from Bristol to the island on Sunday. vice Dec. 1, 2013, news that caused anxiety among islanders and prompted town officials to seek RFPs (requests for proposal) from companies interested in running a ferry so that service was not disrupted. Mr. Medley has always maintained that the only reason he originally planned to stop service Dec. 1 was because he believed legislation to create a ferry authority would be approved. After the bill died, he withdrew his intention to stop service, he said. “You just don’t act on something and then have remorse the next day, which seems to be the case,” said Mr. Leite. “There was a misconception that there was never going to be anyone that could compete with us, because no one was going to be able to get a boat, or that PUC wouldn’t allow it. But when you make enemies with the state and the town, then they start taking sides with someone else and this is what happens.” Lots of well-wishers Although Mr. Medley has his critics, most Prudence Island Ferry customers have had nothing but praise for Mr. Leite and his crew. Ms. Heal lives in New York but she’s been riding the boat with her family for about 25 years. “We’ve been coming out here since I was about 2,” she said. “Eric has just been amaz- Coastal Communities and Waterfront Homes Contact our Westport (Central Village) office for a no obligation Homeowners Insurance quote! • Any property: summer cottages to highvalue homes • Any location • No windstorm restrictions, all deductibles available • Very competitive rates Local office staffed by local people.

It’s stressful and a lot of people don’t give him enough credit. Winters are not easy on this ferry, so we’ve been fortunate to have him. It’s bittersweet; I’m also very good friends with the gentleman who’s part of the new company, A&R Marine, so it’s all like we’ve been family here.” Longtime ferry rider Kathy Sousa presented Mr. Leite with a plateful of treats and a hug after her final ride Sunday. “We really appreciate all the safe rides to and from Prudence. We’re going to miss the captain and crew,” she said. The well-wishers and gifts have been coming all week, Mr. Leite said. ‘It’s like a divorce’ “People are crying. It’s like a divorce,” he said. “There are so many people I see here who don’t want this to happen, but nobody spoke up. They kind of sat back and let things happen.” Although he’s still weighing his job options, Mr. Leite said it will be difficult to accept a position that doesn’t offer the same freedom he’s enjoyed during his 23 years with Prudence Island Ferry. “If I go get a job somewhere else, I’m just going to be some schmuck who walks in looking for a job,” said Mr. Leite. “But here, they treat me like I’m a superhero or something. It makes you feel good. That’s the hard part. Working for Bruce Medley wasn’t easy, but he gave me freedom to do whatever I wanted. I made my own schedule and I basically ran the place, without the benefits of actually owning it.” For the present time, he doesn’t want anything to do with ferries. “I’m going to California this week. I don’t even want to talk to anybody after tomorrow. I’m going to decompress,” said Mr. Leite. He’s considered the idea of running the launch for the Newport Yacht Club during the summer, but there’s also the possibility of a future opportunity with Mr. Medley. One idea being floated is to use the Mt. Mansfield for runs between Fall River and Prudence, just during the summer. According to Mr. Leite, Mr. Medley is meeting with Fall River officials about the plan on Thursday, Sept. 18. “It’s almost twice the distance but our rates will probably still be lower that the other guys charge because we don’t have anything to pay for,” said Mr. Leite, adding that the interstate runs also wouldn’t be under PUC’s jurisdiction. As for the new ferry carrier, Mr. Leite wishes A&R luck but he’s not sure if the company’s prepared for what lies ahead. “They really don’t know what they’re getting themselves into,” he said. “I’m sure they’re going to be safety conscious as much as they can, but none of them have experience in this business. It’s like me going to open up a restaurant. “Now the rates are going to go up. They’re already up; as of (Monday) the fare goes up to $8 and something, and they can’t take cars for a while. That’s going to cause a hardship. I don’t see any reason why they couldn’t have let us continue and let them get their stuff together, or work out a deal.” Ms. Heal said many islanders have recently taken their cars off the island for the interim period. “I’m not sure what the service is going to be like for the next couple weeks, but it is what it is. You live on an island, so your options are limited,” she said. Page 8 Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 Sewer woes From Page 1 The hurdles include: ■ Uncertainty about costs: There's only $7.1 million to spend so far for installation of sewers. That is not enough to pay for complete installation of sewers in all three priority areas, according to Mr. Kendricks. The original plan was for all voters in each of the three areas to vote at the same time. But that turned out to be unworkable, because without enough money in hand — from federal, state, and grant sources — for all three priority areas, there was no way to tell voters what the cost would be to them individually. Furthermore, if voting and construction were broken up into stages, and if funding is not yet in hand at the time of each vote, people who voted later might face different costs for sewering than those who voted in the early stage. "It's absolutely possible," said Mr. Kendricks, that different voters in different stages could be paying more, or less, than this who were the first to vote. Mr. Kendricks said that isn't fair to voters, and they would rightfully resist if asked to vote without knowing the costs to them of what they were being asked to vote for. ■ Need to return to legislature: Under the new law creating the TWWD, only residents who own their homes will get chance to vote on whether or not they want sewers. The law does not allow owners who live elsewhere to vote. John Rooney, a Providence resident who owns a home in Riverside was at the meeting Monday night and objected to the fact he couldn't vote. 'If you don't postpone this vote, you're going to lose," he told the TWWD. The TWWD plans to return to the legislature to seek an amendment to the law, which until it's amended disenfranchises nonresident owners. ■ Bay Street Complications: The installation of sewers in the streets threatens to disrupt contamination beneath the streets, and connections to the properties, which has implications for all residents. Residents there are reluctant to vote until these issues, and their costs, are resolved. There is also the possibility that funds might be available from the Villages at Mount Hope Bay 2002 bond financing for the sewer line, connecting that development to the Fall River sewage treatment plant, to defray the costs of sewers in the Bay Street area.

Free documentary part of 4 Corners film series TIVERTON — The Four Corners Arts Center will present the documentary film “Kiss the Water” as part of its ongoing film series on Wednesday, Sept. 24, at 7:30 p.m. at The Meeting House, 3850 Main Road. The sensual, hypnotic and haunting movie weaves seamlessly between cinematic documentary and hand-painted animation — much the same way Megan Boyd twirled bits of colorful fur and exotic feathers around a tiny, sharp metal hook. Megan was not a pretty woman. She wore a jacket and tie over a tweed skirt. She cut her own hair. She did not fit in well with others, left school at an early age, and learned the craft of fly dressing from an old river warden who had her unravel finished flies and rewind them onto smaller and smaller hooks, over and over until she knew the patterns by heart. All she wanted to do, it seemed, was to make flies. They were everything she was not — seductive, graceful, pretty. The film is free and open to the public because of generous support from Coastal Roasters Coffee. For more information, visit Four CornersArts.org.

They renovated a barn on the property and in addition to the crematory, built Faithful Friends Crematory provides a compassionate service for those who have suffered the loss of a family pet. in private viewing facilities and a quiet room for families to bid farewell. “It is a restful and compassionate space and affords to pets the respect given to other family members,” says Cathie. “If people want special services, we can arrange them as well,” she says.

Page 16 Sakonnet Times September 18, 2014 BLUEBERRIES: Summer brought bumper crop of sweet berries From Page 1 "It's a nice area for raising and selling blueberries," he says. "I eat them all the time in the field as I go along — 6, 7, or 8, or 10 or 12, to see how they taste. They seem to sweeten up on sunny days. I can tell the type by their taste. They're all a little different." Mr. Hart is quick to give credit to other growers in the area. "It's not about me," he said. "There are a lot of people in the area who have blueberries," he said, naming The Peckham Farm, Boughs and Berry Farm, and Young Family Farm in Little Compton, and Berry Hill Farm run by Robert Pierce in Westport, among others. "You start raising something for yourself and you can't eat it all and you put it out on a stand." Mr. Hart said he does have competition for his blueberries, from birds. "Birds. They're pests. They can be a real serious pest if you can't get rid of the flocks." "You get all kinds, seemingly," he said. "Robins. You get catbirds that sit up there and holler at you if you try to scare them." "I have an electronic scare alarm that makes distress calls from various birds — robins, catbirds, hawks. It helps. One is a hawk screeching. I have to use two speakers, and set them to go off every five minutes, 10 minutes, or every 30 minutes. Set them up with a car battery and they help." After the leaves fall, it's quite a job taking care of the blueberry bushes. "Grubs, pests, worms, all kinds of things." As the season neared its end, Mr. Hart said he and his wife Isobel got out among their bushes about 9:30-10 in the morning. He picks, sometimes from a stepladder for the bushes that are 8 to 10 feet tall, with a small bucket hung around his neck, to get a few pints ready and out on the stand by the road. His wife sorts through the pickings, and packs the pints. Then out they go to the stand. "I like to talk to the different people who come and buy them. Doctors, financial people, summer people, people from Boston. That's very satisfying." Sales are all on the honor sys- “It's a nice area for raising and selling blueberries. I eat them all the time in the field as I go along — 6, 7, or 8, or 10 or 12, to see how they taste.” DICK HART tem, he says. "We've had some thefts, and set up a camera and have caught people a number of times. They take the money or the berries. But 99.5 percent of the people pay. Some people stop by and pay later, and some leave off IOU's." He estimates he will have sold about 2,500 pints (at $4 per pint) by the time the season is over. "This is going to be my best year," he said. In August alone he sold 1,825 pints. He estimates he gets about 5-10 pints per the average bush, and up to 25 pints on the older, bigger bushes. A new blueberry bush will cost about three or four dollars, he said, but if you buy a hundred bushes, they'll cost about two dollars per bush. The big nurseries, he said, sell two to three-year old bushes. A blueberry bush will start producing "in the second or third year after planting, when you'll get a handful, and after four or five years you'll get a crop that will pay for your berry bushes." Blueberries are consistently ranked as among the healthiest foods, and are high in antioxidants. Wild blueberries have even high levels of antioxidants. "There are not many wild blueberries in this area right now," said Mr. Hart. "I'm not sure why they're gone." He also raises strawberries, gooseberries, raspberries, currants, apples, pears, and peaches. Mr. Hart grew up in Tiverton and graduated in 1952 from the University of Rhode Island in general agriculture, where he took plant and soil courses. He earned an M.S. degree in plant physiology and biochemistry from Purdue University in Indiana in 1956, went into the Army, then lived in Pennsylvania for a while, before returning to Tiverton where he has lived ever since. In Pennsylvania he spent some time at a research farm where he took a course in small fruits and worked in a lab where he learned how to make cuttings. Mr. Hart has served on the Tiverton Town Council, and the town personnel board, and currently serves on the street advisory committee and the landfill/recycling committee. One of Mr. Hart's favorite sources for information about blueberries, he said, is a series of periodic newsletters (The Blueberry Bulletin) from Rutgers University: http://njaes.rutgers.edu/pubs/ blueberrybulletin/ There is no list of local fruit or vegetable stands or of growers who sell their products by the roadside in front of their farms. A few years ago, the Tiverton Town Council was on the verge of establishing a list of roadside stands, that the town clerk might maintain, but the listing idea never got passed due to fears it might lead to regulation.

September is the peak of the dragonfly migration along the New England coast. Unlike bird or monarch butterfly migration, much remains unknown about the migration of many dragonfly species, as scientists have yet to confirm where their winter grounds are located. The Migratory Dragonfly Partnership and scientists like Kent McFarland of the Vermont Center for Ecostudies and Pete Marra of the Smithsonian Conservation Biology Institute are using stablehydrogen isotopes in the wings of dragonflies to track migration patterns. Though none of the migratory dragonflies are known to be endangered, this information will help biologists understand the range and stability of these populations. This dragonfly, which may or may not be migratory, was photographed at Nockum Hill in Barrington. JASON CALVERT ALONG THE WATERFRONT Boat Show: Crowds, judges like local boats P erfect late summer weather brought big crowds to last week’s Newport International Boat Show. And around every corner on the docks or beneath the tents, those visitors were greeted by boats and gear from these towns. From the East Bay and Southeastern Massachusetts came speedsters such as C&C’s new 30-foot One Design (“Freaky Fast” read the label on the red boat’s open stern), and more traditional Bruce craft like the BURDETT catboats offered by Stur-Dee in Tiverton and Marshall in Padanaram. And at least some in the crowd were buying. A staffer at the C&C display said interest in the revived C&C’s two new offerings was encouraging. By Friday they had sold one of the new 30s bringing total sales of the new release to 11, he said, with much more show to go. Next to the C&C, the Alerion Most said selling boats at the show is great, but what they really bank on is the ‘delayed reac- NEW BEDFORD — “‘E’ is for Elephants, The Etchings of Edward Gorey,” an exhibition of the work of the American author and illustrator organized in collaboration with the Edward Gorey House, is open from Sept. 23 to Nov. 2 at the University Art Gallery, College of Visual and Performing Arts, UMass-Dartmouth, 715 Purchase St. A reception is on AHA! Night, Thursday, Oct. 9, from 6 to 8 p.m., with a lecture, “The Strange World of Edward Gorey” by Professor Memory Holloway from 7 to 8 p.m. and a rough-cut screening, “The Last Days of Edward Gorey, A Documentary” by Christopher Seufert, from 8 to 10 p.m. These events are free and open to the public. The exhibit presents the personal works of the late illustrator and author. The special exhibition curated for UMass-Dartmouth features a large selection of works representing the latter years of Mr. Gorey’s career, including limited edition prints and numerous original etching plates that reveal a behind-the-scenes look at his artistic process.

His well-known animated credits for the PBS “Mystery” series have introduced him to millions of television viewers. His masterful pen and ink illustrations and his ironic, offbeat humor brought him critical acclaim and an avid following around the world. Edward Gorey also was deeply invested in the protection of animals large and small. In his will, he bequeathed the ensuing profits from his estate to a vast array of organizations (local to international) to support the protection of animal life. I Garden inspiration blooms with late-summer spring cleaning think I have it a bit backwards. Isn’t spring supposed to be the time for cleaning and clearing the clutter? I’m on a tear to create some space now. Within reason, of course. I have no intention of tidying up my desk, and I’m certainly not Kristin ready to put the GREEN garden “to bed.” There are miles of summer and fall left to go and I prefer to leave seedheads standing through the winter anyway. But right now my garden is at its fullest. It’s tall and it’s buzzingly busy with activity. It’s so full, in fact, that the wildlife and I can afford to let a few plants go here and there. This is a great time to think about changes to make next year and try them on for size. Against my better judgment, last year I plunked a fountain grass, Pennisetum orientale ‘Karley Rose’ into one of my foundation beds alongside a tiny hydrangea cutting and a precious little daphne. This spring I threw a few dahlias and nicotiana into the mix. Even at her best, Karley Rose has a late-summer habit that Great Dixter’s Christopher Lloyd might describe as sleazy. She grew at a prodigious rate, especially considering the lousy soil I planted her in, and has late- ly taken to lounging around, plumes and foliage flopped all over her more interesting bedfellows. Before I evict this plant for good (anyone have just the spot?) I’m going to whack it back by at least half to give those other plants some breathing room again and make extra-sure I’ll prefer the bed without it. There are still swallowtail butterflies in the garden thanks to a healthy crop of fennel (plants in the parsley family are swallowtail caterpillar hosts) growing in the bed closest to my driveway, but I wanted to see what life might be like if we could actually walk down the path to the plantry door, and edited out a good twothirds. It’s as if that bed’s edges have been sharpened. And the holes I created were just right for tucking in some last-minute color: bright orange zinnias and a companionable blue brachyscome daisy. I know without even looking that I want more of those colors in my garden next year. I’m in love with the rice paper plant (Tetrapanax paperifer ‘Steroidal Giant’) planted in my backyard border. Its 18-inch wide matte-green pinwheel leaves change the scale of the garden and make me smile. But they also provide a little too much shade for all of the regular-sized plants tucked in nearby. This season, the rice paper plant’s third in my gar- den, it finally sent out a few suckers that filled some gaps along the back of the border and grew to shade out a bit more of the front. The other day I removed a couple of offshoots to let the daylight back into the bed (they’re shallow-rooted and easy to pull) and just like when my handsome husband finally shaved off his hilarious mustache, I wished them back again as soon as they were out. But I’m learning to enjoy the look of my garden’s upper lip without them. I’ll start on container plants next. The more I consign to the compost now (such as the enormous angel’s trumpet that never bloomed), the fewer will crowd my plantry, living room and cellar this winter. She says. I’m itching to move some shrubs around, if not out, and a few perennials too. But we’d all be wise to wait for a good soaking rain before rearranging the furniture. In the meantime we can do some spring cleaning to clear the clutter and create some space to play with ideas for next year’s garden.

From Page 1 tion’ sale —buyers who like what they see, go home and ponder it awhile, and follow up weeks or months later — “Can I still get it at the boat show price?” Heidi Reid, who is running the Stur-Dee Boat Co. that her dad, the late Ernie Gavin, started, said Friday that she was encouraged by interest in the 14-foot SturDee Cat she had brought to the show. “We’ve gotten lots of compliments, lots of people looking and touching. You usually don’t really learn until months later how well the show went, she said, but so far this one looks promising,” she said. Local boats also took home much more than their share of awards from the show’s “Best of” competitions. Winning Best New Powerboat over 30 feet and Best Overall Powerboat was the Warren-built True North 34-foot Outboard Express. Wrote the judges, “This was a tough category, all products had great features. Whether your boating takes you fishing, diving, or a day out with the family, the True North 34 Outboard Express can be any powerboat you want. It offers so much flexibility. The outboards open up the deck space, and the adventure racks and optional side door for scuba diving, coupled with a 2-foot draft for accessibility and joystick handling really shows how the Outboard Express is meant to be used.” Zim (headquartered on Cutler Street in Warren) won Best New Sailboat Under 30 Feet with its 14-foot Wanderer.

LYNN ANNE EVANS Dear Dr. Evans, A friend of mine is gluten-intolerant and just switched his dog to gluten-free dog food. He can’t say enough about how glossy her coat is, how she gobbles it down, etc. The thing is, her coat was pretty glossy all along and, seeing that she is a Lab, she pretty much gobbles anything down. Another friend cooks big batches of homemade food for her dog, using brown rice, lentils, and a whole bunch of organic greens. Another one swears by the raw diet for all her pets (she feeds them some pretty scary stuff). I myself feed Alpo. Am I letting my poor dog down? Is she secretly pining for quinoa and kale? Raw venison and mashed sweet potatoes topped with a freerange fried quail egg? Or are my friends nuts? —Confused Dear Confused, There’s a lot to be confused about. Everyone, it seems, has strong opinions about what they should eat, what you should eat, and what your dog and cat should eat. There are a few rules. Cats are “obligate carnivores,” meaning that meat is an absolute requirement. Vegan cats do not thrive, and, one nutritional study I read years ago convinced me that mice are indeed the perfect, balanced kitty food (NOT that I’m recommending that for Mittens). Another firm rule, for me, is that raw meat is no more safe for dogs and cats than it is for people. Salmonella is not pretty. Other than that, use common sense. There are a whole lot of people who jumped on the gluten-free bandwagon because it’s trendy, not because they are gluten-intolerant. Same thing for their dogs. Of course, there are plenty of people and some dogs and cats who genuinely have a medical sensitivity to gluten and need special diets, but allergy testing and elimination diets are needed to diagnose these conditions in pets. Some people derive a lot of satisfaction cooking for their pets, and that’s a wonderful thing. However, it takes a little time and research to do so safely. Homemade diets can be deficient in basic nutrients or be terribly unbalanced. People who feed a lot of meat to their pets, for example, risk upsetting the delicate balance between phosphorous and calcium, thereby risking bone health. People whose pets have specific health issues such as kidney disease should take care to follow veterinarianapproved recipes only. Websites like BalanceIT.com can help home cooks find recipes that are convenient and balanced for their pets. Finally, with a bewildering array of brands on the market, how to choose? Recognizable brand names are generally reliable—if they’re big enough to advertise nationally, they’re big enough to hire veterinary nutritionists when formulating and testing their products. And look for the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO) seal on the packaging. While not a regulatory body, the AAFCO is dedicated to protecting the pet food supply. So, no, I don’t think you need to feed only free-range pheasant and raw beets to keep your dog or cat full and happy. Remember to take it easy on the treats and table food, feed a well-recognized product approved by AAFCO, ideally offer a mix of canned and dry, and your pet should be well-nourished and happy. Even without organic lactose-free Greek yogurt and acai berries. Dr. Lynn Anne Evans of the Barrington Veterinary Clinic has been practicing veterinary medicine for 26 years.

Ernie said “The fish weren’t very finicky Thursday, there were good numbers of them and before you knew it I boated three false albacore and two small bonito.” Reports of false albacore have been coming in all along the coastal shore from Westerly to the Sakonnet River. They are here and what seems to be in larger numbers than recent years (at least more false albacore). Hot spots reported include Point Capt. Dave Judith Light, the MONTI West Wall at the Harbor of Refuge and the Westerly area. Manny Macedo of Lucky Bait & Tackle said, “We have had a run on Deadly Dicks, Swedish Pimples and other lures used to catch albies. Off Newport seems to be where they are catching them.” Steve Jordan of Breachway Bait & Tackle, Charlestown, said, “We have good numbers of false albacore and a few bonito in the Charlestown area.” Striped bass fishing has slowed all over. Macedo said, “Striped bass fishing is slow. Fish are being caught but not large fish. I understand in the Sergeant Pots tournament recently held by the Aquidneck Island Striper Team fish were weighed in to win the tournament but no big fish were caught. The water is still in the high 60 degree range, but the temperature will drop so we hope for a good fall run.” Jordan said anglers are catching striped bass from the Charlestown Breachway but things have slowed a bit. Tautog fishing is really starting to pick up with keeper fish in the 16” to 19” range being caught in the Palmer and Warren Rivers. Keeper tautog are also being caught under the Mt. Hope Bridge and at Colt State Park, according to Macedo. Patti Ferrara of Ray’s Bait & Tackle Warwick said that her customers have been catching fish at Ohio Ledge. Bluefish schools have been spotted along southern coastal shores in the Westerly and Charlestown area, according to Steve Jordan.

Fluke and black sea bass fishing is holding up fairly good. Harry (11) and Jameson (7) Hogan-Shaw of Barrington fished the mid-Bay with me Sunday at the T wharf, Prudence Island and Great Ledge areas with their grandparents Bruce Bowen and Mary Shaw and landed keeper fluke, black sea bass and multiple sea robins and dogfish. “Fluke and sea bass trips continued to do well with anglers catching their sea bass limit and going home with three to four keeper fluke…the largest fluke this week was in the eight pound range,” said Roger Simpson of the Francis Fleet party boats. The tuna bite offshore is still very good. Roger Simpson of the Francis Fleet said, “The action continues to be on the chucks and some taken on jigs. The tuna continue to gorge on squid. The trip this Friday saw a nice mess of big yellows (tuna) in the 60 to 90 pound range, a 125 pound big eye tuna, a handful of albacore and some smaller mahi.” Captain Dave Monti has been fishing and shellfishing for over 40 years.

Similarly, were there any position diff e r e n c e s between Republicans Ken Block and Alan Fung? Of course there were. That’s why it’s disingenuous to expect that Arlene those who lost the race should VIOLET automatically give an imprimatur to the standard bearer. The idea that one political party is monolithic and therefore all members share the same agenda went out with the horse and buggy. Take the Democratic Party. Certainly, Clay Pell was the most progressive candidate who espoused the so-called traditional values in supporting labor unions and extensions of rights to both legal and illegal immigrants. Mr. Taveras was probably next in line embracing such values, while Ms. Raimondo was a distant third. Mr. Giroux seemed to espouse narrower issues. On the Republican side, there was a chasm on some issues between the candidates. So, why is it that there is an expectation that the loser(s) should support the victor? This blind obeisance to the victor is not healthy for a democracy. If candidates really believed in the differences between themselves, then they should be negotiating some bridge of acknowledgement for the values they espouse. A shrug-of-the-shoulder support for somebody because they are a “democrat” or a “republican” is no heathier than folks who vote as diehards for a party. Even more so, there is a responsibility for a candidate who ran because he thought that he had a different perspective from those of his competitors, which warranted his running in the first place. To set these aside in order to “take one for the team” is silly. If the issue was important enough to run on in the first place, he should keep fighting for it. The expectation that losing candidates should give a seal of approval to the winner is misplaced. Accusations of “sore losers” abound because a candidate who came up short doesn’t play Rover. If each of the candidates for office had principled differences with whomever won, then he should have the guts to wrangle with the winner in his party for consideration of the very reason why he was a challenger ab initio. Politics isn’t about being a good sport. Running for office isn’t a team effort where the loser shakes hands with the winner. While it is not good form to be bitter, nonetheless, if a candidate spent so much time and money to argue over principles, then at least he should have the decency to argue the sincerity and rectitude of his position in exchange for an endorsement after the primary. I would like to see some back and forth between candidates who won and lost. It’s simply unthinking to just assume automatic backing, particularly, here in the governor’s race, where candidates actually staked out different ground. The public would do well to stop any brickbat against somebody who demurs in lieu of seeking concessions on important issues. Now, that would be real leadership and honesty instead of knee-jerk support.

Breakfast in the Barnyard Spend the morning getting upclose and personal with Coggeshall Farm’s Heritage Livestock. See NIBBLES Page 6 I was looking for something special for a Saturday evening dinner and found boneless duck breasts at Stop & Shop. I understand Persimmon Provision in Barrington also has them. Once home, I scouted online for a recipe. Most called for items I didn’t have in the kitchen or were too complicated for late afternoon. Then, I found something at finecooking.com with peaches, tarragon and shallots. I had lots of peaches (can you ever have too many fresh peaches?) and tarragon in my herb garden. And, I had just finished drying my shallots for storage. So, before fresh peaches disappear from the stores and farmers’ markets, give this a try. It’s easy and fast and amazingly good. Of course, I changed it a little. And, I halved it to serve two, which is easily done. Duck Breasts with Peaches and Tarragon Serves 4 ■ 2 boneless duck breasts (3/4 to 1 lb. each) ■ Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper ■ 1 tablespoon unsalted butter ■ 3 to 4 shallots, thinly sliced (1/2 cup) ■ 6 tablespoons dry white wine or dry vermouth ■ 6 tablespoons low-sodium chicken broth ■ 4 medium peaches, pitted and sliced 1/2 inch thick ■ 1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon leaves ■ 2 teaspoons clover honey Heat the oven to 425°F. Using a A boneless duck breast cooks quickly and is perfect with a sauce of fresh peaches and tarragon. sharp knife, score the skin and fat on each breast, but be very careful not to cut through into the meat. Lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper. Heat a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium/medium high heat. Add the breasts skin side down and cook until the skin is browned and crisp, about 6 minutes. Flip and put the skillet in the oven. (If there’s a lot of fat in the pan, drain some off. You only want 1 to 2 tablespoons). Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 130° to 135°F. for medium rare, 8 to 9 minutes. Transfer the duck to a cutting board and tent with foil. Discard all but 1 tablespoon fat from the skillet. Add the butter and return the skillet to medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring often, until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the wine and simmer until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add the broth and simmer until reduced by half, another 2 minutes. Add the peaches, tarragon and honey. Stir until the sauce is bubbling, 1 minute. Slice the duck and fan it on serving plates. Serve with the peach sauce. I served it with steamed green beans from my garden, but you could add a side of rice or polenta or noodles to catch the sauce.

SPOTLIGHT Tulips and daffodils are very well known and popular spring flowering bulbs and offer a welcome addition to any garden. There are lots of other types of bulbs that can provide something different in your garden. Alliums ( onion relatives ) are a quite diverse group that range from the giant purple allium to the small rock garden allium molly. They range in height from 3 feet to only 6-8 inches. Most bloom quite late. Bulbs for the woodland setting are all very early bloomers so they are finished by the time the leaves come out on the trees. Siberian squill, chionadoxa, and crocus are good subjects for under trees. The long term sucess of bulbs on the north side of the house or where the shade is year-round is not good. There is just not enough sun power to grow new bulbs every year. It's great fun to pot up some bulbs for winter blooms, in the house. Tulips, all types of daffodils, and hyacinths are good subjects for this effort. Plant the bulbs in pots with 5-10 bulbs per pot, water well and keep where they will get normal winter outdoor temperature. A bulkhead is a perfect place for this. Alternatively, set them on the ground in a protected location and cover with about a foot of loose straw. You can start bringing them into the heat of the house starting in about 12 weeks. There is nothing more cheerful than spring blooms on your windowsill in the dead of winter. p.m. and Wednesday, Sept. 24 at 6 p.m.; Cat Conversations: Saturday, Oct. 18 at 2:30 p.m. COST: Free MORE INFO: Pre-registration is required; 401/846-8276 Greater Tiverton Community Chorus open rehearsals The Greater Tiverton Community Chorus is a non-auditioned choral group that welcomes singers from communities throughout southeastern Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

WARREN Celina Lemos Rangel was born in Pico, Azores, and attended college in Sao Miguel, where she earned a bachelor’s degree in Public Relations and Communications. She came to the United States to live in East Providence when she was 27 years old. Although she had a wonderful life in the Azores, and a successful career as a teacher, the Portuguese economy shifted and her position teaching was diminished. She decided it was time for a change and a move that would change her life forever. Being an American citizen, knowing the language and having help from a loved one, it didn’t take too long for Celina to meet her future husband and move to Pawtucket. They were married this past May. She considers herself a family woman, and her life is devoted to her husband, work and friends. Celina feels blessed for her good fortune in life and wants to share her knowledge and life experience in her career as a realtor. WHY ARE YOU A REALTOR? “It had been a while since I felt very interested in business. Meeting the right people at the right time was just what I needed to make it happen. I love to interact with the public, and being able to help sellers and buyers seemed like a challenge to me. As soon as I came into the business I knew I was doing what I always wanted to do.” WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST/LEAST ABOUT YOUR CAREER? “Real estate can be the career of your dreams if you work really hard. I like the flexibility and at the same time a career that keeps me so busy. I like the fact that it is always changing, you meet so many different clients in different transactions. It’s an amazing feeling when you find your buyer his dream home and when you get a great offer on the sale of a seller’s home. The only thing I can say I like the least is when a deal falls apart and I have done everything under my control, a little frustrating, but still it’s something that you have to live with as a realtor and no career is perfect.” DREAM CAREER (IF YOU WEREN’T A REALTOR)? “I had a previous career as a teacher. That’s what I would do.” HOBBIES: “When I have some free time I spend time with my husband and friends. I love to cook and to entertain at my house.” MARKET PREDICTIONS: “The housing market is getting better due to the strengthening of the economy. Employers are creating more jobs and people, young couples are buying their own homes instead of renting, and they feel safer having more job opportunities. They are realizing that putting that rent money toward a mortgage is totally worth it because in the end the house is going to be theirs. I feel very optimistic and positive!” BEST LESSON LEARNED AT WORK: “Anything can happen in this business. Something might change, and a deal can fall apart, and we have to be prepared for that. The best lesson is always to BE THERE for your clients, answering Celina Lemos Rangel EXIT Realty Consultants 401-965-8556 soldbycelina.com the phone. Work on the deals you have and work to get more and more. Never accommodate yourself — clients come first.” BEACH OR MOUNTAINS: “Mountains! I was born and raised on an island with the biggest mountain in Portugal, Pico Island. I love nature, the trees, fresh air, so inspiring!” FAVORITE BOOK: “‘The Notebook,’ by Nicholas Sparks.” MOST LOVED MOVIE AND TV SHOW: “ ‘A Walk to Remember’ and ‘Desperate Housewives.’ “ LUNCH WITH ANYONE: “My deceased brother. He passed away when he was 4 years old. He was hit by a car. I was 5 years old. I know he’s watching over me, and I would love to have the chance to talk to him and hold him in my arms. He’s my angel.” ADVICE FOR SELLERS: “One of the main things is have the seller look at a home through the eyes of a prospective buyer and determine what needs to be cleaned, painted, repaired and tossed out. Imagine yourself as the buyer of your home. What would you like to see? The goal is to show a home that looks good, with maximum space and that can attract as many buyers and as much demand as possible. The seller also has to ask himself why he really wants to sell his home. Selling a home is an important decision and there should be a good reason to sell — perhaps a job change to a new community or the need for more space. Your reason for selling can impact the negotiating process so it’s important to discuss your needs and wants in private with the Realtor who lists your home.” The Sign you want.

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.
