9/11 beam takes up post in front of fire station

early 14 years ago, the
eight-foot steel Hbeam helped support
one of the World Trade
Center’s twin towers.
Now it stands
864,664 feet away on
the front lawn of the Westport Fire Department’s Hixbridge Road headquarters.
They know that number because they’ve
done the math, says Deputy Chief Allen
Manley.
Visitors who gaze on the beam from the
to-be-installed granite bench will be looking
in the precise direction of the place those
towers stood before the Sept. 11, 2001,
tragedy — just over 163 miles to the westsouthwest.
“It’s not done yet but it is quite moving just
to see it standing there,” Deputy Chief Man-
ley said. “People stop by and tell us that all
the time.”
Completion, ironically, may happen near
or just after Sept. 11 of this year, although
that depends on the arrival of granite pieces
and completion of the walkway and patio
that will surround the steel.
A Fire Department delegation drove to
Hangar 17 at New York’s JFK Airport three
years ago to retrieve the beam that had been
provided through the 911 Artifacts Program.
Twice a month, the Artifacts Program handed over pieces of steel beams in varying sizes
to approved organizations from around the
country.
Since then, the beam has been on display
in the fire station lobby while plans for a
more permanent monument were considered.
“In retrospect, I’m glad it took us so long to
decide what to do with it, that we didn’t rush
into it,” Deputy Chief Manley said. In that
time they’ve received suggestions from firefighters and residents alike.
The biggest change in thinking was to put
the beam outside.
Early on they had thought the best place to
display it was inside the station — probably
the lobby — where it might enjoy more protection from the elements.
Not all agreed with that idea.
“We got one letter from a woman who sent
us a donation but berated us for keeping it
inside — keeping it to ourselves,” Deputy
Chief Manley said, adding that others — in
letters and comments — also preferred an
outside location.
Another woman, a summer resident, gave
a generous anonymous donation.
“Her sister had died on 9/11,” the deputy
said. The woman came in to see the beam
for herself, a moving moment that rein-

Joe Wood will appear on his
sport’s foremost stage next week
when he competes in the Forrest
Wood Cup presented by Walmart.
He is among 45 anglers selected to the tournament held
August 14-17 on Lake Murray
near Columbia, SC. The Fishing
League Worldwide (FLW) championship features the sport’s top
payday
(the winner gets
$500,000), concerts, national
television coverage and more.
In a sport dominated by
anglers from southern states, Mr.
Wood’s Westport address stands
out — he is the only competitor
among the 45 from the northeast.
He earned his way to the Forrest Wood Cup by capturing his
north region’s Angler of the Year
title, winning by a lopsided margin of 43 points.
He racked those points up
with consistent high finishes at
events drawing hundreds of pro
anglers.

He followed that success with

still his favorite fishing spot.
He later began entering local
tournaments around New England. His success in these
sparked a desire to fish at the pro
level so he joined FLW Outdoors.
At that level, most competitors
rely on sponsors to pay the considerable costs of boats, equipment, travel and entry fees (big
tournaments can cost $1,000 or
more to enter).
He had no sponsors last year
but friends in the Westport area
helped get him started. The family hosted a fund raising clam

Firefighters fight two fires in two days
One damages historic
house at the Point
Westport fire crews were called
to battle house fires twice in less
than 24 hours last week. One was
in a historic Westport Point
home.
The first blaze was called in at
1:57 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 5, in a
single-family home at 41 Grand
Pine Way (just west of the intersection of Routes 6 and 88).
The owners (the house is
owned by Marie Cordeiro), who
called 911, said they were across
the street at a neighbor’s house
when they heard their smoke
detectors sounding.
Firefighters discovered a fire in
the kitchen and smoke in the first
floor. They quickly extinguished
the blaze but the house sustained
what the Fire Department
described as about $10,000 worth
of moderate smoke damage.
It is believed that the fire started in the dishwasher.
Firefighters responded with
three engines and a ladder truck.
At about 11 a.m. the next day
(Wednesday), firefighters from
Westport and Little Compton
were summoned to extinguish a
basement fire at 1950 Main Road
in the Westport Point historic
district — the Capt. Edward G.
Sowle House built circa 1835.
Homeowner
June
Roche
reported hearing an explosion
and discovering a fire in the
basement.
Firefighters managed to put
out the fire in about 15 minutes.
They report that the blaze did
not spread beyond the basement
and is believed to have gotten its
start near or in basement electrical panels. Electrical service to
the house had to be cut off until
repairs can be made.
Smoke spread throughout the
house and damage is estimated
at around $60,000. No injuries
were reported in either blaze.
Fall River provided backup by
sending an ambulance to an
unrelated rescue call in town at
the same time.

BEAM: 911 memorial takes shape at station
From Page 1
forced the notion that “this is
something that people need to be
able to put their hands on … Outside, everyone feels more welcome to stop and look at it, to
touch it,” he said.
The steel beam that now stands
in front of the station shows evidence of the violence of that day.
Although the beam is reasonably
straight, a thick bolted on piece is
twisted sharply and has a jagged
edge where it was ripped apart.
Creating the outdoor display
has been a big job, an effort that
townspeople have been more
than willing to share.
“We’ve received donations big
and small from many people” —
money, supplies, equipment and
labor.
Many of the gifts are small and
“we had hoped for that — “we
wanted the whole town to take
ownership.”
The beam now stands within a
pentagonal base. Inside that will
be a pentagonal assembly of five
granite monuments.
Five bronze plaques have been
cast, each with its own message:
■ President Bush’s quote after
911 — “Terrorist attacks can shake
the foundations of our biggest
buildings, but they cannot touch
the foundation of America. These
acts shatter steel, but they cannot
dent the steel of American
resolve.”
■ A dedication to Westport resident Dianne B. Snyder who, at age
42, lost her life that day aboard
RICHARD W. DIONNE JR.
Days after arriving at the station three years ago, the beam sits in the station lobby.
American Airlines Flight 11.
■ The precise moment and
place that each of the planes was
lost.
■ “We will never forget the 343’
members of the Fire Department
of New York.
■ “In memory of those who fell
and those who carry on across all
cities and towns across all generations.”

The plan to pave Beach Avenue
was nixed by a 3-2 Board of
Selectmen vote but controversy
continues along the oceanfront
road.
Some residents said they
became upset last week when it
became apparent that roadwork
was being done clear out to the
Knubble, about 700 feet beyond
where they had thought it was to
be done.
Highway Surveyor Gonsalves
said Monday that he does intend
to gravel the road out to the
Knubble, as he said he has
repeatedly said at Selectmen’s
meetings.
“It is nothing more than road
maintenance and public safety.
People are getting stuck out there
all the time,” he said.
He said he intends to do the
work Wednesday if weather
allows and added that care has
been taken not to damage the
dunes.
Several neighbors, though,
said their understanding was
that the plan was never to go out
as far as the Knubble with gravel.
Doing so risks damage to barrier
beach, they contend.
The state Department of Environmental Protection authorized
only “regular road maintenance,”
said resident Constance Gee.
“Building a gravel road all the
way out to the Knubble goes way
beyond regular road maintenance.”

last week.

minority. They are “portraying
this as people down here wanting to keep people out but but it is
nothing like that … It’s political
theater and it’s sad.”
She said that she and others
believe that a better alternative
would be to stabilize the dunes
out there, provide a couple of
handicap access parking space at
the proposed turnaround, and to
put in a boardwalk that would
provide “people with disabilities
with real access … that they will
not otherwise have.”
“They are laying a road base in
a restricted area … doing three
point turns, backing into dunes,”
Ms. Gee said.

Paving set at East Beach, Lakeshore Sale on Shrubs & Trees
Weather permitting, a long
awaited coating of blacktop will
be applied next week to two of
Westport’s bumpiest roads.
Narragansett Improvement Co.
will begin work at East Beach
Road and at Lakeshore Road
most likely on Tuesday, Highway
Surveyor Chris Gonsalves said
Monday. They’ll probably begin
the work on Tuesday.
Crews were out grading East
Beach Road late last week to
smooth it for the pavement to
come.
Last year, a contractor applied
a mix of ‘reconstituted asphalt’ to
East Beach Road as an intended
fix of earlier storm damage.
But motorists said that job left
the road at least as bumpy as
before — like a washboard some
said.
Lakeshore Avenue, a small
road that runs along the east side
of South Watuppa Pond, was
washed out during rainstorms.
Initial plans were to include
Beach Avenue in the paving contract but a divided Board of
Selectmen finally opted not to
pave Beach Avenue after receiving numerous complaints about
the plan. Beach Avenue is
instead getting a packed gravel
coating (this week, again if
weather allows), the extent of
which has raised still more
debate.
Donations sought for
empty fuel assistance fund
Westport’s Fuel Assistance Betterment Fund is
almost entirely depleted, the town treasurer’s
office reports, and a call has gone out for donations to help replenish the fund.
Rising fuel costs along with need are blamed
for the situation and the town will not provide
money to rebuild the fund.

Twin eyesores
I
f indeed Brayton Point power plant is to close, as its
owner says will happen in 2017, demolition of the
twin towering eyesores there must be part of the
deal.
Notorious for its standing as New England’s worst
air polluter, the Somerset coal-fired power plant’s standing
among visual polluters rose with each week of the cooling
towers’ construction.
They started out as a pair of lumps on the Mount Hope
Bay horizon. Soon, nobody could miss the behemoths that
looked for all the world like nuclear power plant towers.
They kept climbing and grew to a startling height of 500
feet each (406-foot diameter at the base) by the time the
job was done.
The region’s tallest structures — they loom 70 feet above
the tallest building in Providence and are taller than any
New England building outside Boston — they dominate
the view throughout Narragansett Bay and into Southeastern Massachusetts.
Mighty ugly, they were built to do a good thing — cool
the hot water the plant had pumped into the bay for
decades, the steamy outfall that was blamed for altering
the bay’s ecology and killing fish by the millions.
Although their size caught almost everyone by surprise, it
shouldn’t have. Brayton Point was under orders to fix that
hot water problem and the plans were no secret. Politicians
and press alike mostly missed that small detail during the
planning stage.
By all accounts they’ve done what they were built to do
by pumping and cooling the equivalent of an olympicsized swimming pool a minute. That need will be gone in
2017 and so, too, should the towers.
Somerset and towns all around should insist that demolition of those towers commence immediately after shutdown. It would seem an obvious step but it’s a costly one
that owners sometimes feel little urgency to tackle. Witness
the remains of the old Sakonnet River Bridge or remember
the former Jamestown Bridge that rusted away for years
after its successor was built.
The ‘nuclear’ towers diminish the look and feel of this
beautiful waterway, provide a ghastly first impression to
visitors, harm the area’s ability to lure more attractive ventures, and diminish the value of investments already made
here.
People here deserve to get their view back.

Supermoon Sunday
The supermoon rises over Tiverton Sunday evening in this photo taken at Stone Bridge in Portsmouth.
There were plenty of shutterbugs along Park Avenue in that town to catch the phenomenon, in which
the moon takes a closer path to Earth than normal. The third supermoon of the summer will take place
on Tuesday, Sept. 9.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Town needs to put the brakes on speeders
To the editor:
To the Board of Selectmen: I am
retired and spend a fair amount of
time on the roads of Westport
Harbor. My usual running route
takes me on Old Harbor, River,
Acoaxet, Atlantic, Cross, and Howland roads. I would like to make
the following observations about
the problem of speeding in the
Harbor (and elsewhere in Westport) and to suggest that this is a
serious problem which must be
addressed:
■ The double yellow lines are,
for the most part, barely discernible;
■ For the most part, the roads
in the Harbor are very narrow,
and there are no shoulders;
■ There are no posted speed
limits and no “Your speed is…”
signs;
■ On straightaways, most drivers exceed 40 mph most of the
time;
■ Most offenders are trucks
and SUVs, many with out-of-
state plates;
■ There is very little police
presence in the Harbor; and
■ As the summer continues,
attention to the problem of
speeding is warranted.
Some may say there are legal
speed limits but there may as
well not be speed limits, since
they are not posted.
Some may say that the Harbor
would be getting special treatment if changes were made. The
Harbor should not get special
treatment on this issue; there are
other areas of Westport that must
have the same attention.
Some may say that there are no
funds available to address this
problem in the Harbor and in
other areas of Westport. In time,
speeding tickets will cover the
added expense to the town.
Some may say it is the responsibility of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts to establish limits. If that be the case, ask them
to establish the limits.
So what should be done?
■ Set up “Your speed is…”
signs on River Road and Old Harbor Road;
■ Ask the Department of
Transportation to establish
speed limits on River Road, Old
Harbor
Road,
Howland Road, and Atlantic
Avenue;
■ Post the speed limits permanently; and
■ Provide police presence regularly.
It is easy to overlook the problem; in a nanosecond it becomes
impossible to avoid it. In this
ever-more-crowded world, at
some point there will be another
serious accident and all priorities
and attention will be focused on
what might have been done to
prevent such an accident.
I hope you feel this issue merits serious consideration and
that it is worthy of a response.

Westport
Lock Your Liquor campaign
aims to stem teen drinking
Customers at local liquor
stores this summer are being
encouraged to secure the alcohol
in their homes in an effort to limit underage drinking, especially
among young teens.
The Tiverton Prevention Coalition has teamed up with the proprietors of all three Tiverton
package stores — Crossroad
Liquors, Stonebridge Liquors
and Tiverton Liquors — to promote a summer prevention program designed to remind adults
to make sure the alcohol they
purchase doesn’t find its way into
the hands of Tiverton teens.
Store owners are distributing
“Lock Your Liquor” flyers provided by the coalition throughout
the summer. “Although most
adults do not give alcohol to
minors, they are the ultimate
‘source,;” the coalition said.
In a recent survey, 18 percent
of Tiverton teens said they have
obtained alcohol from parents
“Substance abuse
prevention is a
community issue that
can only be solved by
community involvement
at many levels.”
REBECCA ELWELL, TIVERTON
PREVENTION COALITION
without their parents’ knowledge.
Nearly 20 percent of Tiverton
middle school students report
that they got it from their parents
with or without their knowledge.
And 34 percent who drank alcohol in the previous 30 days
reported that they got alcohol at
a party without an adult present.
“The message is a simple one:
Whether you lock up your alco-
hol or simply track it carefully to
make sure it’s not mysteriously
disappearing, keep kids safe —
bring prevention home.”
The partnership between the
coalition and liquor stores over
the past few years has included
participation in TIPS (Training
for Intervention Procedures) Off
– Premises and False ID certification training. Tiverton’s liquor
stores have been monitored by
law enforcement through compliance checks and “have exemplary records of no sales to
minors over the past several
years,” the coalition said.
“Substance abuse prevention
is a community issue that can
only be solved by community
involvement at many levels” said
Rebecca Elwell, Tiverton Prevention Coalition coordinator, “We
are very grateful for the effort put
forth by the local liquor stores to
keep alcohol out of the hands of
kids.”

Inc. Director Bob Gillet will hold
open auditions for the mystery
thriller “Postmortem” by Ken Ludwig on Sunday, Aug. 17, at 1:30
p.m. and Tuesday, Aug. 19, at 7
p.m.
Auditions will consist of a cold
reading from the script. Acting
experience is not necessary, but
role seekers should have a desire
to share the experience of and
commitment to live theatre and
the enjoyment of collaborating
with other talented individuals.
Needed are three men and four
women ranging in age from early
20s to 70s. The play is set in 1922,
at the Connecticut castle-like
home of William Gillette, who was
a real person, a well-known actor,
playwright and director. Gillette,
best known for his portrayal of
Sherlock Holmes, has invited his
sister and his cast of the latest
revival of the play, for the week-
end.
Gillette hopes to solve the murder of his fiancé, which occurred
exactly one year ago at the mansion. While her death was ruled a
suicide, Gillette believes that each
of his guests had a reason to kill
her. So, he arranges a séance,
where he learns that one of his
guests is trying to murder him.
Using Holmes’ uniquely eccentric
detective skills, Gillette sets about
finding the murderer.
Performance dates are Nov. 13
to 16 and Nov. 20 to 23.
Auditions are at Your Theatre
Inc. at 136 Rivet St. (corner of

Civil Engineering Concepts is
tops in all land use issues
avigating engineering and land surveying projects requires reliable professionals who can provide accurate
assessments and are up to date on all regulatory requirements. That’s why so many businesses and homeowners in the region turn to
Civil Engineering Concepts, Inc., a firm
licensed in both Rhode Island and
Massachusetts. Their expertise is especially
important today when two environmental
regulatory issues require immediate action
on the part of owners to avoid escalating
fines and spiraling insurance costs.
According to William Smith, P.E., president
of Civil Engineering Concepts, Inc., new regulations requiring the elimination of cesspools
located in sensitive waterfront and drinking
water supply watershed areas are taking
affect now. Home and business owners who
have delayed responding to Department of
Environmental Management notices to
amend their properties are now being fined,
with the cost escalating each day. “We can
help these owners meet the new code
requirements by designing fully compliant
septic systems to replace existing cesspools
and facilitate all approvals,” says Bill.
New environmental issues that are catching some property owners by surprise, are
the newly redrawn FEMA flood maps,
prompted by recent coastal events. There has
been a dramatic increase in flood insurance
premiums. Those located in the flood areas
are required by their mortgage holder to
have flood insurance. “ The first step in
obtaining flood insurance is the completion of
a FEMA Flood Elevation Certificate, which
must be done by registered land surveyors.
Flood insurance rates are based on these elevation certificates and an accurate elevation
certificate can prevent homeowners from
overpaying flood insurance premiums,” says
Bill.

Barrington’s Kevin Doyle to receive
National Heritage Fellowship
National Endowment for the Arts
honor is the nation’s highest in the
folk and traditional arts
Kevin Doyle, an Irish step dancer, is among a
select group of artists and jazz musicians who
are being honored for mastering the artistic
skills and preserving the cultural traditions of
their respective art forms.
Governor Lincoln Chafee had high praise for
Doyle. “On behalf of the citizens of Rhode
Island, I congratulate Kevin Doyle for his
recognition by the National Endowment for
the Arts,” he said. “As a retired RIPTA bus driver, he exemplifies the very best our state has
to offer. His love for Irish Step Dancing and the
arts is clear and should encourage others to
pursue their passions.”
Senators Jack Reed and Sheldon Whitehouse, and Representative David Cicilline, also
offered their congratulations, with Reed noting
that Doyle “makes Irish step dancing look easy,
but he is someone who has poured many years
of hard work, sweat, and soul into honing his
craft. I think it is great that he is being recognized on a national stage and making Rhode
Island and our Irish-American community
proud.”
With more than five decades of Irish step

dance under his feet, Rhode Island-born Kevin
Doyle is a son of County Roscommon through
his mother Margaret Taylor Doyle. He is a
grandson of County Longford through his
father John, whose Irish parents came to live in
Providence, Rhode Island’s Fox Point in the
early 1900’s.
At the age of eight, Doyle, along with his sister Maureen, began to learn their first Irish
dance steps from their mother. He recalls his
mother lilting (a way of vocalizing rhythmically using syllables rather than words) old tunes
like “McLeod’s Reel,” which she had learned
from her own mother in Ireland. In the 1960s,
Doyle studied at the Pat Fallon School of Irish
Dance with visiting Boston instructors Steve
Carney and Mary Sullivan, and at the McCorry
School of Dance in Pawtucket, where he
learned steps traceable to the old dance masters of Ireland.
Through apprenticeship awards with the
Southern New England Folk and Traditional
Arts Apprenticeship Program and Rhode
Island State Council on the Arts, Kevin taught
his daughter Shannon traditional Irish dance
and she has gone on to become an Irish dance
teacher herself. In 2013, Doyle was awarded a
Folk Arts Fellowship from the Rhode Island
State Council on the Arts.
Doyle will be traveling to Washington, D.C.
in September, where the 2014 NEA National
Heritage Fellows will be honored at an
awards ceremony on Wednesday, September
17, and a concert at George Washington University’s Lisner Auditorium on Friday, September 19. Both events will be open to the
public and the concert will be streamed live
at arts.gov.
The guy next door
Staying true to himself,
Ahmed Ahmed finds
comedy doesn’t
discriminate
Actor, comedian, producer, and
director Ahmed Ahmed is on top of
his game, starring as “Ahmed” on
TBS’ hit comedy series “Sullivan &
Son” and touring the U.S. this summer performing a sellout stand-up
show with three of his costars.
But the road to success wasn’t
without more than his share of
speed bumps.
An Arab-American (he was born
in Egypt and brought to the U.S.
when he was a month old), Ahmed
was raised in Riverside, California,
moving to Los Angeles at the age of
19 after deciding to try his hand at
acting.
Being an ethnically Arab actor
was a bit of an anomaly in Hollywood, but that didn’t stop him. “I
had lots of opportunities,” he says,
“playing terrorists and cab drivers.”
“What I really wanted to do was
play the guy next door. But I never
got called in for those types of
roles.” Eventually, he told his agent
to only call him with offers for
mainstream roles. So he didn’t hear
from her again.
Ahmed ran out of money and
ended up sleeping on the couch of
one of the first friends he made in
Hollywood: Vince Vaughn. He
worked waiting tables and discovered he had a talent for stand-up.
Ahmed Ahmed
“The food was horrible,” he says. “I
had to compensate with service
and laughter.” This was in the
1990’s, when a lot of stand-up
comedians were breaking into acting with their own shows.
As a stand-up comedian for
some 20 years, Ahmed did take an
occasional self-deprecating shot at
his Middle Eastern background.
But after September 11, 2001, he
had to be very sensitive to what
audiences were interested in
laughing at. To this day his humor
tends more towards more universal issues of life as a 40-something
single guy. It’s gone well — after all,
as Ahmed says, “funny is funny.”
In its third season, executive produced by Vaughn, “Sullivan & Son”
follows Steve Sullivan (Steve
Byrne), a corporate lawyer who
surprises his parents when he
leaves his job to take over a bar
owned by his father in Pittsburgh.
Ahmed made his first appearance
as unlucky in love, tow-truck driver
(and best friend to Steve) “Ahmed”
in season one, and joined the cast
as a series regular in season two.
Ahmed and four of his costars
are keeping their stand-up muscles
toned (and promoting their show)
in comedy clubs across the country through August. You can see
Ahmed along with Owen Benjamin, Roy Wood Jr., and Steve
Byrne at the Comedy Connection
in East Providence this Friday at 8
p.m.
Currently the only Arab-American actor playing a non-stereotypical role on a comedy sitcom,
Ahmed couldn’t be happier. “I’m
paid to laugh,” he says. “It’s the best
job in the world.”

vacationers
I
have been on a vacation for
more than a week traveling
with my family in an RV
around Idaho, Wyoming and
Montana. Being offline means
that I’m behind on the latest in
Rhode Island politics and that I
have not seen a Red Sox game
since leaving the
land of NESN. I
know I didn’t
miss much since
the Sox season
was over long
ago and then

they traded four
CROMWELL of five starting
pitchers. Perhaps they should just forfeit the
remaining games and rest up
until spring training.
Being unplugged has been nice
but my mind wanders back to
something I always think about
when I travel: how RI compares
to where I am. We have seen
plenty of evidence that shows
Rhode Island at the bottom of
almost every measure of success
and that people leave Rhode
Island and don’t come back.
While I don’t plan to change my
address (ever) I do like checking
out the things that other states
do better. It’s clear that Rhode
Island definitely has room for
improvement.
These western states could not
be any different from Little
Rhody. In the “where are you
from” conversation that
inevitably occurs locals have
been quick to remind us that
both Rhode Island and Delaware
could fit into Yellowstone Park
together. We went to a dinner
show where one of the jokes was
based on the fact that no one
from Rhode Island is ever there.
On three separate occasions people have said some variation of
“Rhode Island is the only state I
haven’t been to and I don’t know
why I would go.” While it’s nice to
live in the country’s best kept
secret, we would benefit tremendously from a boost in visitors.
While the Sox have conceded
for the season, I think it’s time
that Rhode Island fought to be a
contender in tourism revenue.
But our state’s puny budget for
promotion — $400,000 — shows
that growing this sector of our
economy is not a priority. Our
tourism website (visitri.com) is

THEATER REVIEW
T
A classic summer ‘whodunnit’ at 2nd Story
he season of summer in
New England provides a
plethora of singular sensations, priceless moments and
fun traditions. We boast of our
patriotic parades, the tang of salty
air on our glorious beaches, waterfront seafood fests and the livin’ is
easy. Onstage the
grand tradition is
for good oldfashioned summer stock shows
and in Warren
2nd Story Theatre promises to
fill this bill with
gusto with both
William
a rousing murOAKES
der mystery and
a sweet old charmer of a play.
This summer the theatre in Warren’s century-old building on Market Street has two plays running in
rep, Agatha Christie’s “And Then
There Were None” and Noel Coward’s “Hay Fever”, both playing
now through Labor Day. Each play
shares the same swell set but the
similarities end there — apart
from providing an opportunity to
beat the heat with some sheer fun.
This week we’ll concentrate on
the murder mystery, I’ll be brave
enough to tackle the Coward next
week. Frankly, I’m a little nervous.
For, you see, in “And Then There
Were None” ten guests who may
or may not have done something
wrong in their pasts have been
invited to a mysterious isolated

Chuck Lafond, Eric Behr, Sharon Carpentier, Walter Cotter (seated left

island by someone who may or
not be a murderer. Rules of full
disclosure dictate me to tell you
that I’m one of those guests. But
trust me here as I guide you
through this mystery, as I both
promise not to talk about myself
too much nor indicate ‘whodunnit’.
The really fun aspect of the
genre fiction that has become
such a staple of straw-hat summer
stock theatre is that, though the
formula is familiar, you never really know how this is all going to
play out. That’s a truth that sustained Christie during her 50- year
writing career and one that buoys
up her own theatrical adaptation
of her novel. Sure, the characters
and situation, like summer theatre
itself, might be stock. But that
doesn’t mean it won’t shock and
surprise the heck out of you.
Fans of mysteries know well and
savor all of the usual suspects, as
you will all of the customary ruses
and red herrings that abound. I
myself portray a nervous Doctor
quaking in his boots and if that’s a
guilty quiver you see before you,
well, I’ll never tell.
The other assorted guests
trapped on the isolated “Soldier
Island” on a naturally dark and
stormy night comprise a wide
variety of suspect sorts including a
very pretty and pretty plucky heroine, the obligatory butler and
housekeeper, a shady detective, a
moralistic shrew, a dapper ne’erdo-well, a stern and reptilian
Judge, a morose military man and,
rounding out the field, the lovable
rogue without whom no adventure is truly complete.
It is to this last suspect I now
draw your attention, adding my
observation based on being stuck
on this island with him, that,
though he is quite naturally
charming, no nicer man has ever
had to play the coarsely kidding
caddish sort and that calls for considerable acting chops. The character’s name is Captain Phillip
Lombard; the actor is Jay Bragan
and we spoke a bit whilst waiting
for the proverbial axe to fall about
all things mysterious.
Last seen on the 2nd Story Stage
in “Harvey”, Mr. Bragan is a graduate of the Trinity Rep Conservatory
and has, for the past 10 years,
been the Head of Performing Arts
at Portsmouth Abbey School,
directing three productions a year
as well as teaching English. Happily, because he’s on summer break,
he’s available to be stuck here on
Soldier Island in a play directed by
one of his teachers at the Conservatory, 2nd Story Artistic Director
Ed Shea.
Teaching literature, directing
plays and acting all require similar,
though not identical, skills. I asked
Mr. Bragan what it was like to
‘switch hats’ for his onstage role as
Captain Phillip Lombard. “It’s
been five years since I’ve acted in a
play”, the ever-affable Bragan
explains, “and I was a little worried
that those skills may have atrophied a bit. But I was surprised at
how quickly it all came back. Acting is so experiential that there has
been little time to step outside the
role and think like a director. And
being in a play has been a good
reminder to me about what my
students have to go through!”
The murder-mystery genre fiction of Agatha Christie is, unlike
most plays, an intricate little puzzle that the audience takes great
pleasure in trying to solve. Though
each of us onstage has a secret
past we are also stuck together in a
dire situation. To that end, in
rehearsal our director, Ed Shea
talked a lot about our job as actors
to “feed the mystery” as opposed
to trying to “play a character” and
I asked Mr. Bragan to expound
upon that idea.
“When Ed said that we are to
“feed the mystery” and not get
caught up in out own story, the
play really opened up for me. I
found that advice to be very freeing. I really began to take in that
we are all creating the story
together. It took off the selfimposed pressure of trying to be
interesting and helped focus our
collective attention on each other
and not ourselves.”
“Back at the Conservatory”, Mr.
Bragan continues, “Ed taught us
what an onstage “event” is. It’s
essential that actors know what
the event specifically is in a scene
so they can play it; otherwise that
scene would have no focus. In my
first scene in “And Then There
Were None” I arrive with another
character and we talk about the
mysterious party we’ve been invited to on this formerly deserted
house on an isolated island. We
flirt with each other and establish
our relationship somewhat, but
the main event needs to be what
we say about the house on the
island. In this case the audience
learns some vital information. If
we focused more on our relationship the audience might be confused as their attention would be
misdirected. So knowing what the
main event is is crucial. I’m always
aware of this as a director and am
thankful to Ed for teaching such
an important lesson.”
In an attempt to try to incorporate the three sides of Jay Bragan,
teacher, director and actor, I asked
him about the importance of both
seeing and participating in live
theatre.
“Theatre and literature are both
forms of storytelling”, Bragan
explains, “and acting is, for the
most part, an oral tradition of story telling. Literature is powerful in
that it evokes the senses, a good
writer creates a world to experience. Agatha Christie has the wonderful ability to give each character their own voice. When I first
read the play I was struck by how
distinct each character already
was just on the printed page. Their
tone, syntax, idioms-all of these
contributed to a very specific type
of person. I found that to be
impressive playwriting. The rich
characters, as well as the skillfully
crafted mystery, make this a
delightful play.”
“But”, Bragan points out, “there
is the one element that other art
forms do not have: theater is live.
There is that immediate visceral
quality to theater. Theater can
help one appreciate literature all
the more because all the elements
of the story are right there in front
of you, all brought to life.”
So, audience, did either of us
‘dunnit’? I’ll never tell. But please
join us on Soldier Island and help
unravel the mystery, without you,
there truly would be none.

More conservative striped bass regulations on the way Memorial Swim
this weekend
NO FLUKE
T
he Atlantic States Marine
Fisheries Commission’s
(ASMFC) Atlantic Striped
Bass Management Board
approved more conservative regulations in addendum IV for public comment to the Interstate
Fishery Management Plan for
Atlantic striped bass. The draft
addendum proposes new fishing
mortality (F) reference points, as
recommended
by the 2013
benchmark
stock assessment, and associated management measures
Capt. Dave
to reduce fishing
MONTI
mortality to a
level at or below the proposed
target within one or three years.
With the approval of one of
these options striped bass regulations will become more conservative. Specific options to be considered include bag, size, slot and
trophy size limits for the recreational fishery and quota reductions for the commercial fishery.
The draft addendum includes a
suite of management options to
reduce recreational and commercial harvest under three reduction
timeframes. The timeframes
include (1) reducing to new fishing mortality targets in one year
with a 25% reduction in 2013 harvest in 2015 (2) reducing mortality to its target within three years
with a 17% reduction in 2013 harvest in 2015, and (3) reducing to
its target within three years with a
7% sequential reduction in harvest for three consecutive years
starting in 2015.
Fishermen and other interested
groups are encouraged to provide
input on the draft addendum
either by attending state public
hearings (RI, MA and CT meetings to be announced) or providing written comment. The draft
addendum will be available on
the Commission website
(www.asmfc.org) under Public
Input the week of August 11. Public comment will be accepted

Many anglers are catching their limit of black sea bass (three
fish/angler/day). Steve Brustein of West Warwick is shown here with a
black sea bass he caught off Newport last week.
southwest side of Block Island
with many large fish being
caught. We weighed in a 44
pound fish from Ken Prendergast
of New York and a 55 pound
striper landed by Richard Dean of
Massachusetts.” Tom Giddings of
The Tackle Box, Warwick said, “A
customer caught a 44 pound
striped bass off Narragansett this
weekend.” Nick McCarthy of
Lucky Bait & Tackle, Warren said,
“Michael and Jason Macedo landed bass to 39 pounds fishing with
eels at Block Island aboard River
Rebel Charters. And, Charlie
Sores (noted local striped bass
fishing exert and author) weighed
in a 37 pound bass caught off
Newport while trolling tube and
worm. We also have customers
landing bass with eels in the
Brenton Reef area.” “Fishing for
bass has been good with customers at Block Island, off Brenton Reef and we heard from local
Air Force pilots going in and out
of Quonset Point, North
Kingstown seeing schools of bass
off the airfield. These are all positive signs for a good bass fall run,”
said John Wunner of John’s Bait &
Tackle, North Kingstown.
“Offshore fishing has been hot,”
said Elisa Martin of Snug Harbor.
“Yellowfin and bluefin tuna were
caught this weekend at the Gully
and at the Suffix with thresher
and mako sharks being taken
south of Cox’s Ledge.” “Tuna trips
are starting to book and reports
from the canyons are hot!” said
Roger Simpson of the Frances
Fleet. “The first tuna trip is set for
August 27 to 29, leaving August 26
at 10 p.m.” Visit francesfleet.com
for information and reservations.
Summer flounder (fluke) fishing
on the south side of Block Island
has been very good but fishing
along the southern coastal shore
has been fair. “Conditions have to
be right to catch fluke along the
coast, but they are there,” said
Elisa Martin of Sung Harbor Marina. “Customers are catching large
numbers of fluke off Newport but
many of them are undersized.”
“Customers are catching some
keepers right under the Mt. Hope
Bridge from shore,” said Nick
McCarthy of Lucky Bait & Tackle.
“Fluke fishing in the bay has been
difficult; one customer caught seventeen fish, all shorts,” said John
Wunner. Roger Simpson said,
“Last week on a few trips the
weather was so gorgeous and
calm that there was very little
drift… biggest fluke for the week
was around 8 pounds.” Capt. Rich
Hittinger, RISAA vice president
said, “Fluke fishing has been very
good. We had some good luck off
Sakonnet two weeks ago, but
recently we have had a very good
bite at Block Island. Many of the
fish are over three pounds and I

“Bonito reports are starting to

Shore fishing. John Brangaccio
of Cardinal Bait & Tackle, Westerly
said, “Fishing has been very, very
slow. Anglers fishing from the
beaches and jetties are not landing much… just scup and bluefish are being taken. At Ft.
Wetherill, Jamestown, last weekend school striped bass and bluefish were surfacing… just out of
shore angler reach.” Last week
seven year old TJ Giddings of
Warwick landed three keeper
scup in twenty minutes when
fishing with his dad at Rocky
Point, Warwick. Scup are being
caught in the bay and off coastal
shores from boats and shore.
Dave Henault of Ocean State
Tackle, Providence said, “The
scup bite under the Mt. Hope
Bridge is good, as well as at Colt
State Park, Bristol.”
Black sea bass fishing has been
excellent with anglers catching
their limit when targeting fluke.
Steve Brustein of West Warwick
landed sea bass off Newport last
week to 19”. Roger Simpson said,
“(The) biggest sea bass was 6.2
pounds!”
Fresh water fishing for bass continues to be strong with trout fishing starting to fade. “A customer
caught a nine pound and a five
pound largemouth bass when
fishing at Lincoln Woods,” said
Dave Henault.

Bristolians who were lucky
enough to know William “Bill”
McCarthy (1917-2011) know that
there is nobody who would be a
more appropriate namesake for
this benefit. A lifelong open-water
swimmer, McCarthy participated
in 20 consecutive Save the Bay
swims, well into his eighties. At 1.7
miles, across the East Passage
from Newport to Jamestown, it’s
an athletic feat for someone a

McCarthy continued to ride his

What is ‘Blue Willow?’
his familiar pattern was
first designed by Thomas
Minton in England
around 1780. It is the most famous
china pattern in the world, and
the longest continually produced
pattern in history. The willow
pattern has its
roots in China
and is most often
seen in blue and
white.It was and
continues to be

by hunWATERMAN made
dreds of manufacturers (including in the United
States). Examples may vary slightly but all have key features: a willow tree, an apple or orange tree,
two doves, people on a bridge, a
boat and a pagoda (tea house).
Supposedly, the original willow
pattern was inspired by a fable.
There are several versions but they
are similar. A wealthy Chinese
man lived in a magnificent pagoda under the branches of an apple
tree near a bridge over which a
willow tree drooped. His beautiful
daughter was the promised bride
to a wealthy merchant when the
first blossom fell from the willow
tree. However, she fell in love with
her father’s bookkeeper. The father
found the two of them together
and pursued them across the sea
to a cottage on an island and was
planning on putting them to
death but the gods intervened and
turned them into doves, symbolizing true love.
Blue Willow is a type of transferware. Developed in the mid 1700’s
by an Irishman named John
Brooks, transferware is a method
of which a design on a copper
plate is transferred to the china
thus allowing pieces to be mass
produced. Chinese potteries were
exporting their hand-painted blue
and white china to England and
sold to wealthy customers. Transferware made the blue and white
designs affordable to the masses.
The best way to tell if you have
an old piece is to see if it is
marked. If it has a country of ori-
gin mark it was made after 1891. A
lot of pieces are unmarked and
they could be old or new. Because
of this and the sheer volume produced, prices for blue willow vary
greatly. There is helpful information on collecting and identifying
willow on the International Willow
Collectors website: www.willowcollectors.org.

M
y best friend in high

Through The
Night” and
“High And Dry”
albums. So
when “Pyromania” was
released we

the band and
what they could do. Overnight
everyone in my high school
starting wearing union jack
shorts or t-shirts. MTV had
“Photograph” in regular rotation
and by regular I mean every 30
minutes. Radio was suddenly
embracing them as a heavy metal Beatles. It was a good time to
be young and into hard rock
music.
Now decades later the band,
having weathered death, loss of
limb, drugs, overdoses, alcoholism, and an uncertain musical market, have reclaimed their
former glory with “VIVA! Hysteria - Live at the Joint, Las Vegas”.
The live concert features classic
songs as well as recent albums
hits. Set in Las Vegas during
their residency, the band seems
to be on fire, even performing as
the band “Ded Flatbird” and
opening act for themselves —
allowing the band to play some
of the really older songs that
they would not have time to
play during the main set. Clever.
Very clever.
The concert is a testament to
the staying power of this group.
Pop hits aside, there are some
killer tracks awaiting you on the
release. “Wasted”, “High And
Dry”, and “Rock Brigade” fall
easily in place next to mega hits
like “Animal”, “Hysteria”, and
“Photograph”. Listening to the
audio took me right back to
those crazy days and wild nights
when Def Leppard ruled the airwaves and stone washed jeans
were in.
Joe Elliot has never sounded
better and he seemed quite
comfortable in the Vegas setting.
Phil Collen and Vivian Campbell
are truly masters of their instruments and they weave a sonic
tapestry in and around the timehonored classic songs. This
interplay helped breathe new
life into the songs. The concert
performance would put bands
half their age to shame. There is
so much energy and power flowing from these living rock icons.
A must-have for any fan of
hard rock and 80’s hard rock,
this will be a crowning piece in
any collection. Production on
this album is flawless, as is the
performance. Great songs from
a great band.

O
Is this the worst Congress ever?
n August 2, the two
Republican congressional contenders who
wish to dispatch incumbent
Representative David Cicilline to
the locker room appeared on
“Newmakers.”
Both gentlemen, Cormack
Lynch and Stan
Tran, acquitted
themselves well.
As I listened to
their respective
Arlene
thoughtful
VIOLET
responses I kept
asking myself why either of
these men would even want to
go to Congress, given the woeful
track record in D.C. Both candidates recognize the gridlock in
Washington. Yet, their optimism
of ending the unrelenting
incompetence of Congress
sounds like something out of
Mary Poppins.
It’s difficult to imagine a more
ineffective body of decisionmakers than the present Congress of do-nothing sycophants.
Before their 5-week vacation
they cobbled together a “solution” to the Veterans Affairs
mess where former soldiers
waited endlessly for appointments (let alone treatment.) As
the reader knows, there are socalled Veteran Oversight Com-
mittees in both the House of
Representatives and the United
States Senate, so it’s a difficult to
swallow the absolute befuddlement of the solons over this
botched health care delivery
system. After all, they were supposed to be the guardians. With
all the rhetoric about how each
elected official values the members of the armed services it
would have been just nice if they
did their job rectifying the problems, as opposed to soliciting
donations non-stop for their reelection bids.
Other major issues received a
bubble gum paste job. Immigration reform is an oxymoron. The
fat cats on Capitol Hill allowed
the interest on Stafford loans for
higher education to rise from
3.86 to 4.66 percent. This inaction came at a time when other
interest rates hovered much
lower. So much for political patter about how important education is. The country’s transportation issues of crumbling roads
and bridges got a thumb-in-thedike treatment.
As bad as these cronies in
Washington are, I suppose I
mostly felt a twinge at the idealism exhibited by candidates
Tran and Lynch since many folks
just don’t care. The United States
has one of the lowest voter turnout rates of any democracy.
What is a dilemma in Rhode
Island is the fact that the people
who do turn out largely vote for
the same gang who can’t shoot
straight for anybody other than
their own self-interest. Voters
will tell you at a cocktail party
that they think most people
elected in Rhode Island are
unqualified but yet they do not
insist on anything better. Given
the apathy it’s no wonder that
politicians are hand-picked by
the rich, de facto aristocracy or
through the influence of political extremists.
So, given voter apathy and the
pandering politicians, nothing
really changes. Congress can
have a favorability rating of 7
percent but it seems that we
have gotten what we deserve.
Please understand that I
admire the gumption of Messrs.
Tran and Lynch. If I am totally
honest, I would acknowledge
that it is the voter here that has
me most worried about the
future of this country and the
state. How have the citizens’
expectations of what public service should be gotten so low that
doing nothing has become a
virtue? “First do no harm” has
turned into “first do nothing and
then do nothing again.” How sad
that the body politic is anemic
on many levels.

What are GMOs?
MOs are all over the news. But
what are they exactly? GMOs
(genetically modified organisms)
are plants and animals that have had their
genes copied from other
plants and animals to
improve their quality.
GMOs aren’t a new concept,
they have been in our food
supply for over 10 years.
Recently, more attention
has been paid to them
because the U.S. has no
Emily
DELCONTE labeling laws that require
companies to state if their
products contain GMOs.
Are they safe? Many people think that
GMOs are unsafe and should be taken out of
the food supply. Some research has found
that foods with GMOs are just as safe as
conventional foods. However, there is some
evidence that GMOs may cause some genetic side effects in people and animals that
consume them. Also, there hasn’t been
much research on the long-term safety of
these foods quite yet. Some think that eating
GMOs can increase the incidence of food
allergies or antibiotic resistance, but this is
still unclear. We do know that GMOs can
harm animals, insects, birds, and water systems.
Why would companies want to use GMOs
in food? Genetically modified foods allow
companies to increase resistance to insects,
increase crop production, and use fewer

Should I avoid GMOs? It’s completely up

required to state if their products contain
GMOs, many companies are happy to tell
consumers that their products do not contain GMOs. It’s easy to identify these in the

Blackberry Buckle

When I was reworking my garden a couple of years ago, I
removed an overgrown buddleia
and thought about what to plant
in its stead. If you’re going to grow
something, it might as well be
something you can eat, I thought.
So, next to two blueberry bushes, I
planted two thornless blackberry
bushes.
Last year, there were a couple of
dozen berries. I kept tasting them,
but they were too tart. A day
before I planned to pick them,
they all disappeared. Apparently,
the birds knew they were ripe, too.
This year, I covered them with
netting three weeks ago. I put
some netting underneath, too.
Every day, I collect a dozen or so
berries. It’s tricky deciding if
they’re ripe. They are fully ripe if
you touch them and they fall into
your hand, but then they must be
eaten or used pretty quickly or
they dissolve into juice.
Picking them while still a little
tart and baking them is a fine solu-

tion. So far, we’ve had
peach/blackberry crumble (a big
hit) and this blackberry buckle, a
moist, light cake surrounding the
luscious berries. This is a combination of several recipes. Some
called for twice as many berries,
but I like this ratio best.
If the berries were fully ripe, I
think I would skip the mashing
step, and just place them on top of
the batter. But, the store-bought
berries or those that are a little tart

Preheat oven to 350°.
Mash the blackberries a little
(especially if they are really
large). Blackberries are usually a
tart fruit; if yours are, sprinkle
with a little sugar, which will
release some of the juices, too.
Set aside. If berries are fall-apart
ripe, skip the mashing.
Melt butter in a 10-inch cake
pan or casserole dish in the oven.
(Keep an eye on it, you just want
the butter melted). Take out and
set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together
flour, baking powder, salt and
sugar. Add milk and vanilla
extract and whisk just until well
combined. Add the melted butter
and whisk gently to combine.
Pour mixture into your still
buttery pan and spoon the blackberries and their juices into the
center. Sprinkle with raw sugar.
Bake until the top is golden
brown and a cake tester inserted
into the batter comes out clean,
50 minutes to 1 hour. Serve warm
or at room temperature with
whipped cream (or vanilla ice
cream).
* I keep a jar of raw sugar in the
cupboard to sprinkle on muffins,
scones or desserts like this blackberry buckle. It gives them a
sparkle and crunch.

WORLD-CLASS EYE INFECTION
If you wondered what was wrong with
Bob Costas’ eyes during the Sochi
2014 Winter Olympics, the sports
announcer was forced by a common
eye infection to miss nearly half of the
event. “Conjunctivitis,” also popularly
referred to as “pink eye,” is a highly
contagious infection that is commonly
seen among school children. It is
caused by bacteria or a virus that
inflames the thin membrane (conjunctiva) that lines the eyeball and inner eyelid. The conjunctiva becomes red and
swollen, and there is often a discharge
from the eye as well as the experience
of blurred vision, a gritty sensation,
and/or light sensitivity. Viral conjunctivitis, the most common type, usually
clears up on its own in about a week.
This informative and interesting col-
umn about pink eye has been brought
to you as a public service. We are
located at 24 Bosworth Street,
Barrington
Shopping
Center,
Barrington, where we have the personnel and the most modern ophthalmic instruments to give you the
most up-to-date eye care. Please call
247-2015 to schedule an appointment.
We are committed to excellence and
providing you the best eye health care
possible.
P.S. While bacterial conjunctivitis is
more serious than viral conjunctivitis
and may require medical treatment,
allergic conjunctivitis is caused by
pollen or another airborne irritant and
does not resolve until the source is
eliminated.

“official” sites since visitrhodeisland.com displays alongside the
state site. A smart investment in
attracting more visitors will pay
off by creating jobs and generating tax revenue, but this scattershot effort is clearly not working.
Locally we have seen this kind of
success through the efforts of
Explore Bristol. Can you imagine
if this effort were replicated
statewide?
Several candidates for governor
have seized on this issue and
have pledged to put more money
into tourism promotion. I would
like to see the General Assembly
share that commitment as well
since a governor can propose
whatever he or she wants but
without General Assembly support, a governor’s initiatives go
nowhere. Rhode Island has so
much to offer in such a small
place that promoting all our
assets together with a significant
investment is the smart way to
go. In typical “Rhode Island” fashion, our individual tourism
bureaus are allocated funds but
left to design and promote their
own campaigns. Visitors from
other states will be willing, if not
thrilled, to move around the state
taking in the sights. After all, they
aren’t Rhode Islanders, so driving
from Providence to Newport and
back is not considered a multiday journey.
One thing I have missed about
home since we’ve been out here:
a Rhode Island license plate. Day
10 of the license plate game and
we’ve yet to spot one. It’s a good
reminder that Rhode Island is a
great place to staycation in the
summer. Now it’s time to open
our doors and invite the rest of
the country over for a vacation.

MEET DEB PLANT: PAMPERED CHEF WHO LOVES FOUR-LEGGED FRIENDS
Deb Plant is a professional Realtor
from the Tiverton area. She has a
vast background in sales and customer service, is a dog lover and volunteers to rescue Labradors in need
of a good home. She and her family
love to entertain and can often be
found hosting family and friends for
cookouts and days by the pool.
BY JOAN D. WARREN
WHY REAL ESTATE AS A
CAREER? “I love working with people, learning their needs and helping
them fulfill them. It’s very rewarding. Whether it’s getting a first-time
buyer into their dream home (or
sometimes getting them to have the
vision to MAKE it their dream
home!), working with a seller to
enable them to move along to the
next stage of their lives (and working
through the emotional attachment
that often comes with the sale) or
with an investor to build their business, I work to bring their dream to
fruition and alleviate the stress that
often comes up along the way.”
WHAT DID YOU DO BEFORE REAL
ESTATE? “When my children were
young, it was important to me that I
was home with them. I discovered a
national company that allowed me to
pursue my passion of cooking while
working nights and weekends, when
my husband could be home with the
kids. I did in-home cooking demonstrations with The Pampered Chef,
selling top-quality kitchen tools and
showing others that preparing food
for your family and friends could be
easy and enjoyable. After a couple of
years, I became a director for that
company and trained and supported
others doing the same. I was with
them for 10 years and recognized
yearly as a top sales consultant in the
company, earning incredible annual
vacations. I met the most amazing
people, many became close friends
and several have been real estate
clients or have referred me when
they hear of someone purchasing or
selling property. Probably 80 percent
of my real estate business is referrals
from others and repeat business.”
BEST FAMILY DAY: “We have a
huge family and do a lot of entertaining at our house ... seafood on the
grill, everyone is in the pool, outdoor
speakers are on, there may be a special drink ...”
WHAT ARE SOME OF YOUR HOBBIES? “We have a 1970s Cape that
we are in the midst of readying for
some pretty major interior and exterior renovations. I’m thoroughly
enjoying the process. We have three
dogs, two Lab mixes and a Golden
Retriever puppy. They are a big part
of our lives and a huge source of joy.
Enjoying time with my friends,
when your children are young, it’s
easy to put yourself last. Stephen and
Samantha are 24 and 19 now. It’s
easier to make more time for me
now. I love to cook and entertain,
and would like to develop a gym
habit. That’s still a work in
progress.”
FAVORITE PLACE FOR LUNCH:
“Probably Flo’s.”
WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE IF YOU
WEREN’T IN RI? “I don’t think
there’s a prettier spot than here in
Tiverton and Little Compton, the
mix of farmland and Sakonnet River
is breathtaking ... but I’d love to be
on the water’s edge. Downsizing one
day to a perfect little cottage either
on the Sakonnet or ocean is very
appealing to me.”
VOLUNTEER WORK: “In the past I
organized many fundraisers for The
American Cancer Society. More
recently, my family has become
involved with Save A Lab, a wonderful organization that rescues Labs
and Lab mixes from the south and
brings them north for adoption. We
adopted our second dog through
them 1 1/2 years ago and have
enjoyed fostering pups in our home
until they are ready to be adopted out
to
their
forever
homes,
SaveALab.org if you’re considering
a new four-legged family member!”
WHERE DO YOU GO TO RELAX?
“Fogland Beach, no matter the time
of year or weather!”
MARKET PREDICTIONS: “I think
it’s fair to stay we are still in a recovery, rates are low and stabilizing. It’s
a great time to purchase real estate
and I see that trend continuing over
the next 10 years.”

House of the Week
Westport home has ocean views from every room
The town of Westport, Mass., is
known for its beautiful countryside,
lush farmland, a historic past and its
sun-splashed coastline.
This large Colonial-style home is a
six-bedroom residence nestled in
the Acoaxet seaside neighborhood.
A quintessential New England
homestead, it offers expansive views
of the Atlantic Ocean from almost
every room.
Built in 1956, there are two full and
two half-baths with a first-floor master suite, and five bedrooms on the
second floor. The home has more
than 2,500 square feet of living
space. There is also an in-law or Au
pair set-up on first floor, with a sep-
arate entrance that boasts a sitting
area, bathroom and bedroom. The
living room has a fireplace for chilly
evenings when the boats are stored
away and fall leaves on the trees are
turning red and orange on the
11,000-square-foot lot.
Enjoy spectacular sunrises and sunsets from the wraparound porch all
year long.
Walk to Elephant Rock and
Howland beach clubs. The Cockeast
Pond and Westport River are just a
stone’s throw away. The location of
this property makes for comfortable
living year-round and a relaxing
place to call home.

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