the situation.
"All I can say is that Dr. Colley is on a leave
of absence. As for the district, we have a great
staff that continues to work hard moving this
district forward," he said.
Some on the audience of about two dozen
called on the committee for an explanation
of what led to Mr. Colley's departure but were
repeatedly told that this is a personnel matter.
"We deserve respect and we deserve to be
told the truth," said parent Christine Silvia.
"We are privy to information" that those
outside the committee do not have, Ms.
Pacheco said.
Speculation is that there has been disagreement over the course of the PCB-
Growing tension with the
school committee majority over
issues from administrative
staffing to middle school PCBs
prefaced Superintendent of
Schools Carlos Colley's sudden
departure last week.
"It was mostly their idea," Mr.
Colley said Friday from his South
Dartmouth home. Difficult as
things had become of late, he
had not intended to depart
before his contract ended but
"that is the way it turned out."
Increasingly, "the school committee majority wanted to go in a
different direction … It is hard to
keep trying to lead when it
seems like every time you suggest something they want to do
it differently."
He looks back on his Westport
tenure with "very mixed feelings," Mr. Colley said.
Balanced against the frustration of seeing initiatives rejected
or second-guessed is the satisfaction gained from "really
important achievements by the
Westport schools … and wanting
to see things through."
As for the committee's decision to "acknowledge" Assistant
Superintendent Ann Dargon as
his successor, Mr. Colley said, "I
wish her well. I hope she is a
superwoman" who can juggle
the dual responsibilities that "in
most districts are handled by
two people, even three."
Administrative staffing was the
source of some of the "different
direction" debate between him
and the school committee
majority, Mr. Colley said.
Pitted against his belief that

RICHARD W. DIONNE JR.
Former Superintendent of Schools Carlos Colley, seen here outside the middle school earlier this year, has taken a leave of absence and is not
expected to return.
Sudden leave reveals deep school split
The mysterious and sudden departure of
the superintendent of schools and the sort-of
promotion of his second in command has
left Westport school leadership in apparent
disarray.
Superintendent of Schools Carlos Colley
went out on paid leave of absence last week
and he won't return when that leave ends on
June 30. His departure came on the heels of a
closed school committee meeting whose
details committee members will not disclose
except to say that they involve 'personnel'
issues. Mr. Colley was appointed superintendent in 2009 and his contract runs through
June 30, 2015.
Then last Wednesday, the school committee voted to "acknowledge" the naming of
Assistant Superintendent Ann Dargon as the
interim superintendent. Voting in favor of the
move were Chairman Antonio Viveiros and
members Michael Sullivan and Melissa
Pacheco. Michelle Duarte and Carolina
Africano voted no.
Pressed by audience members to explain
the difference between 'acknowledge' and
'appoint,' committee Chairman Antonio
Viveiros said the district handbook stipulates
that the assistant will fill the job of superintendent in the absence of the superintendent.
Added committee member Michael Sullivan, "I would refer you to the policy handbook."
Contacted before last Wednesday's vote,
Mr. Viveiros declined to discuss the reasons
for Mr. Colley's departure or other aspects of

plagued middle school which
has already received over $3 million worth of cleanup plus
mounting bills for air quality
monitoring. Some say the
department should cut its losses
and abandon the school. Recent
turnover in key leadership positions within the district has also
been cited.
Some at the meeting also
voiced displeasure with a situa-
tion in which Ms. Dargon now
serves as both superintendent
and assistant superintendent.
"This is an exceedingly fiscally
irresponsible move," Ms. Aricano
said, agreeing with several parents. "This is a disaster" and parents have a right to be upset.
Added Ms. Duarte, the workload
is too much, "even if you are
Superwoman."
Craig Dutra, husband of Ms.
Africano and member of the
Board of Selectmen questioned
whether discussions among
some committee members had
been held privately in possible
violation of the state open meetings law.
Mr. Viveiros denied that any
such talks had taken place.
Asked before the meeting
about the reasons for Mr. Colley's taking leave, Mr. Sullivan
cited confidentiality rules governing personnel issues discussed in closed meetings. Questioned about the job done by Mr.
Colley, he said, "Dr. Colley's
tenure as head of the Westport
Community Schools was fraught
with unanticipated challenges
i.e. the PCB contamination,
economic disaster and more."
He said he felt Mr. Colley had
done a good job dealing with the
PCB issue at the middle school.
About staff turnover, he said
"During the past two months
there has been greater than
anticipated
turnover. The
School Committee will need to
address this trend immediately
and examine policy and budget
matters related to personnel
matters."
He noted that Mr. Colley presented his self-evaluation to the
committee on Oct. 9 and indicated that the superintendent felt
had met five of the six established goals.
"I made a motion 'to accept
the superintendent's self-evaluation as presented' however the
motion did not prevail."
Contacted before last Wednesday's meeting, Ms Duarte
declined to talk specifics about
his departure but said she
believes that Mr. Colley had
accomplished good things for
Westport schools.
"In his time here, the superintendent was able to bring many
positive changes to the district.
To name just a few, at the
Macomber School we have a
newly accredited program that
received amazing scores during
the accreditation process.
"We have added much needed
technology into the district,
preparing us for PARCC assessments, online learning opportunities at all schools, additional
AP offerings at the high school,
and some teachers at the WMS
are newly trained in Pre AP.
"We have reduced our SPED
out-of-district placement from
21-14, creating new programs to
keep our students in the community, which in turn saved the district thousands of dollars.
“It (leave of absence)
was mostly their idea..”
CARLOS COLLEY
"Most recently, our high school
is acknowledged by the state to
be a level 1 high school and the
NEASC accreditation team who
was here spoke very highly of our
High School program in their
report.
"Moving forward, the Middle
School will continue to be a hot
topic, areas of concern within
the schools will need to continue
to be identified and addressed,
and fiscally, next year will be a
challenge for the town," Ms.
Duarte said.
Asked about issues facing Mr.
Colley's successor, Mr. Sullivan
said, "The Westport Community
Schools will continue to move
forward at an accelerated pace.
New reading programs at the elementary schools, math programs
at the middle school and upgraded technology capabilities and
professional development relating to classroom effectiveness
will continue to provide our
teaching staff with more effective
tools for the classroom.
"I am very confident due to Dr.
Dargon having been the principal administrator for these areas
… The continued success at
Westport Community Schools
will be contingent on fully funding our school budget and the
effective use of our resources
… The Westport Community
Schools have excellent administrative talent throughout all of
our schools.
… the School
Department needs a full time
business administrator, and I
will urge fellow members of the
school committee to understands the wisdom of filling this
position immediately."

COLLEY: Board majority wanted ‘different direction’
From Page 1
the district needs leadership in
key places both for the sake of
students and to keep up with
state and federal requirements,
Mr. Colley said, was pressure "to
run a very lean machine."
It arose over the director of
technology post, facilities and
maintenance, nutrition and other areas.
"Why don't we just farm out
nutrition and custodial and
cleaning services?" he said some
asked repeatedly.
"That sometimes works in big,
big districts with huge overhead
and lots of facilities where you
gain economies of scale but in
little districts like ours" there is
much to be said for having people "who are close to the situation and can look after all the little things that matter."
He offered the example of
Michelle Rapoza, food services
director who he said spent the
summer working to get 6 cents
more reimbursement per school
meal. "That may not sound like
much but it really adds up. That's
why you have administrators, to
look after important things like
that that otherwise might not
happen."
And recently the schools lost
their technology director to
another district that was willing
to pay more for his expertise and
where he "won't have to hear
questions" about whether the
job is needed. People "don't
need to hear that when they are
busting their rear ends."
The division may first have
become apparent one summer
while school leadership was
grappling with the discovery of
PCBs in the middle school.
"Time was running out and a
lot of ideas were still on the table
… We didn't have a lot of time to
explore other options (like sending students to other towns) but
at a late July meeting people still
had other ideas that they wanted
to explore … The reality was that
the kids were coming back in five
or six weeks and we needed a
plan in place."
Mr. Colley said it seemed that
no matter what was suggested,
someone was unhappy. "Someone had to make a decision and
say, 'Here's what we are going to
do. That didn't sit well with some
members of the school commit-

mentary school offerings.
There are more Advanced
Placement offerings at the high
school — and teachers have
received training to deal with AP
demands.
And bus transportation operations have been streamlined.
"We now do our own routing
programs … We tell the bus company how we want it done, not
the other way around."
He said much credit for these
and other achievements also
goes to the Westport Education
Foundation and to the Parent
Teacher Organizations.

there have been accomplishments of which he is proud, Mr.
Colley said.

Mr. Colley said he had pictured
Westport "being a place where I
could stay a long time, see good
things through." But since "I was
trying to lead the district in a

majority didn't want … maybe
it's best" for me and for them
that I move on.

“Norman Mailer lived a big,
brash, bawdy, belligerent life, and J.
Michael Lennon has captured
every moment of it.”
So says author Gay Talese about
Norman Mailer: A Double Life,
written by Forsythia Lane, Westport, resident Lennon and published this month by Simon &
Schuster.
A writer and college professor,
Mr. Lennon immersed himself in
the life of Mailer, one of the twentieth century’s most important and
controversial authors. Mailer
became a national celebrity at the
age of 25 with his bold bestselling
World War II novel The Naked and
the Dead, and went on to write ten
more bestsellers, both fiction and
non-fiction. Two of them (The
Armies of the Night and The Executioner’s Song) won the Pulitzer
Prize.
Mr. Lennon first met Mailer in
1972 and came to know him well.
He is past president of the Norman
Mailer Society, and, as his authorized biographer, had complete
access to Mailer’s 45,000 letters and
papers, and interviewed him many
times before Mailer’s death at age
84 in 2007. He also interviewed
children, former wives, mistresses,
friends and rivals.
“He was quite candid in his correspondence,” Mr. Lennon said. “It
took me several years to read them
all, and I guess I am the only one,
besides him, to have done so. I also
did a score of long interviews with
him in his last decade, and during
his final 30 months I visited him
nearly every day. My wife and I
lived nearby in the same town,
Provincetown.”
Though an admitted admirer of
Mailer and his works, Mr. Lennon
set out to present an accurate portrait of the man, flaws and all.
“While always his own best
lawyer,” Mr. Lennon wrote, “Mailer
never hinted at how he wished to

be portrayed, nor did he ask my
intentions. He answered all my
questions candidly and with much
good humor, enjoining me to ‘put
everything in.’”
That ‘everything’ covers considerable ground in the 900-page
biography.
“Mailer gained fame and sometimes infamy not only from his literary and political endeavors, but
also from his often-unruly personal life, his fascination with sex and
violence, and his vitriolic public
feuds with other writers,” says
Simon & Schuster. “ Mailer was
married six times (to a fellow Jewish intellectual, a Latina artist, the
daughter of a Scottish duke, an
actress, a jazz singer, and an art
teacher), was the father of nine
children, and had countless affairs
throughout his life. He knew many
of the most celebrated writers of
his generation and quarreled with
several of them, most notably with
Gore Vidal, in a legendary confrontation on Dick Cavett’s television talk show.” Mr.Lennon said
that Dick Cavett attended the publication party “and we relived the
show.”
Asked about Mailer’s legacy on
Norman Mailer — A Double Life,
by Westport resident J. Michael
Lennon
American literature, Mr. Lennon
listed three things:
“1) He was the key innovator in
the New Journalism movement,
the wave of participatory journalism that took place from the late
1950s through the early 1970s. The
Armies of the Night, his 1968
Pulitzer-Prize winning account of
the anti-Vietnam War movement is
one of the finest achievements of
this movement; 2) Along with Gore
Vidal and William Buckley, Mailer
was the most important public
intellectual in the American literary world for over 30 years. There is
no one like him these days; 3) Mailer was the most important chronicler and commentator on major
events and figures in American
Life: Marilyn Monroe, Hemingway,
JFK, Nixon, Bill Clinton, Muhammad Ali, many more. He also created some wonderful fictional characters, Elena in The Deer Park, and
Rojack in An American Dream, for
example.”
As the ‘Double Life’ title suggests,
his biography explores the sometimes conflicted sides of Mailer’s
identity – “journalist and activist,
devoted family man and relentless
philanderer, intellectual and boxer,
novelist and politician … Mailer
once said, ‘There are two sides to
me, and the side that is the observer is paramount,’ although readers
of Lennon’s biography may find
this assertion debatable,” the publisher says.
Out of the limelight, Mr. Lennon
said, “Like the rest of us, he had a
variety of moods, but he was usually quite lively, full of beans. He relished a good debate on the issues
of the day, loved jokes, anecdotes,
banter. And he was curious … Sitting around his dinner table was
never dull; everyone was required
to get in the conversation, perform
a bit. Always fun, lots of laughter.
He generally had a twinkle in his
eye.”
Reviewers have praised Mr.
Lennon’s work.
Publishers Weekly wrote, “In this
meticulous authorized biography,
Lennon offers a comprehensive

Transatlantic Scout ‘loses her way’ out near Titanic
Systems apparently shut down,
little transatlantic boat Scout is
meandering about the midAtlantic, adrift and traveling at the
whim of wind and currents.
The 13-foot Tiverton-built solarpowered electric motorboat that
set out from Sakonnet Point nearly
two months ago seems to have lost
her way not far from the final resting place of the Titanic — well over
1,000 miles out into the Atlantic. In
the nearly three weeks since then,
the boat has wandered first east,
then south and then seemed
briefly to be trying to head back
home.
First clue that something was
amiss came when Scout’s navigation system went offline and
ceased sending 20-minute updates
on speed, course and more. Before
that, the boat had weathered big
waves, rain squalls and the remnants of a tropical storm or two.
“She is probably fully adrift,” said
Dylan Rodriguez, a Tiverton resident and senior at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. “It’s most likely a
result of whatever took the main
tracking system offline — we have
a few theories but would have to
receive a diagnostic transmission
from Scout or take a look at her in
person to know exactly what happened.
Where they create a desolation, they call it peace.
~ Tacitus
IRAQ: POST U.S. OCCUPATION
Scout motors over big waves off Sakonnet Point last summer.
“We activated the backup tracker
on Scout (the pink dots on the
tracking map) and this unit has a
year of battery left — Scout is now
basically a message in a bottle
that’s 1,300 miles away from the
New England coast she was
launched from. She could end up
anywhere (we are hoping a tropical
crash landing in which case the
entire team will be forced to fly to
the Caribbean and wait for her
there,” Mr. Rodriguez said Thursday.
Before losing power, “Scout did
pass within two miles of the bow
section of the Titanic. We’re not
sure what this means, but it is pretty incredible to think about.”
Although he said it is sad that
Scout may not reach Spain as
planned and is drifting along far
out of reach, the project has also
brought great satisfaction to the
team, Mr. Rodriguez said.
“All the team members are great
friends, now more than ever, and
this project has been a great reason
for us to work and learn together.
In one case, it even changed the
academic focus of a team member
from civil engineering to marine
architecture. Scout made it about
38 percent of the way across the
Atlantic, and we’re all proud of that,
regardless of what happens to
Scout in the coming months. We all
still follow Scout’s journey, and we
still call each other to brainstorm
and talk. The real question, however, is, ‘What are we going to build
next?’”
Over 8,000 people have been killed in Iraq so far this
year. This does not include the wounded which is far
greater in number. There is no safe place. We are getting reports of whole families being killed in their
homes during night raids, one family recently of
twenty two. No one is safe... Youth playing soccer are
targeted... people on buses, in open air markets, a
park full of women and children.

and unflinching look at the life of
the controversial American novelist, journalist, and filmmaker…
Lennon’s almost clinical perspective shows the author’s restless
innovation, which was indispensable for understanding the U.S. in
the second half of the 20th century.”
Adds author Doris Kearns, “In
the hands of this superb biographer, Norman Mailer comes vividly to
life—irresistible, brilliant, formidable, hungry for fame, and endlessly
fascinating.
Lennon’s great
achievement lies in matching
Mailer’s energy and talent with his
own. This is surely one of the best
biographies ever written of an
American writer.”
He was born in Fall River, and
grew up in Somerset, and “spent
my youth at Horseneck Beach. My
wife is from Newport, and so when
I retired from the university in
2005, we moved first to Provincetown, and then in 2007 to Westport
to write the Mailer biography. We
settled on Westport as a great place
to live, and within striking distance
of friends and relatives. Plus, we
love the quiet, the charm, the prox-
imity to Providence and Boston …

Tuesday people will ride the bus to Boston to
clamor against a strange state plan to cap a toxic Dartmouth dump.
Although the dump is across town lines, it’s
directly upstream from Westport waterways and wells
(including some that serve schools) and is a cause worth
getting excited about.
The records of this dump are deliberately hazy but investigators think that

spoils from the once
badly polluted Acushnet River, barrels of toxins included. Tests have revealed
poisons, among them cyanide, lead, PCBs, cadmium, mercury and more.
The state once favored cleaning the dump out and that’s
still what needs doing. Some at DEP instead seem to favor
a cheaper capping plan.
The Southcoast Alliance for a Cleaner Tomorrow hopes
for a good turnout for the Oct. 29 event (call 508-995-0805

he good news for all who dread backing a boat
down even the best of ramps is that the DOT
intends to redraw and rebuild its too narrow
Tiverton boat ramp.
From the moment they glimpsed this new
one beneath the Sakonnet River Bridge, boaters scratched
their heads. At 11 or 12 feet wide, it offered just over a foot
of leeway on either side of typical trailers and boats, less for
some bigger ones.
Just as challenging was hitting that narrow slot from the
river broadside to one of the bay’s strongest currents.
Cash-strapped DOT likely wasn’t happy about rebuilding
something brand new but the ramp is about useless in its
present form. The new ramp, and small attached park will
be a welcome waterfront addition.
Thanks DOT.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Shabby treatment for a
talented superintendent
To the editor:
At last perhaps Superintendent
Colley can have some relief from
the constant nit-picking of a few
small-minded town officers,
both appointed and elected, with
whom he has been remarkably
patient.
How about some transparency
about this forced "sabbatical."
As far as I can see, it is unfair and
a result of pettiness. Perhaps that
is why we are not told the reason.
What a loss for Westport of one
more talented and dedicated
person who has contributed
more to the town than their
naysayers have. Are there too
many with power here who are in
love with mediocrity?
Can there be any greater
indictment of the dumbing down
of our public education system
than this action and that of the
extremists in the federal government? How ironic that Russian
citizens now in Washington,
D.C., supposedly to learn how
great our democracy is, are seeing just the opposite. Our
claims to celebrate democracy
have been proven hollow. We
have lost our credibility as the
world watches it fail here.
We need good educators like
Dr. Colley to redress years of
poor education. Just recently,
National Pubic Radio gave
schools of education in the United States a failing grade, one long
overdo. We have gone from fad
to fad with no improvement.
When I was in elementary
school we had geography and
world history and learned how
the federal government works.
Today some citizens think that
one person can change laws by
him or herself, although there
are 435 members of the House of
Representatives and 100 in the
Senate.
Democracy is the art of compromise but too many of our
poorly educated citizens do not
understand that. Thomas Jefferson and John Adams said that for
democracy to survive everyone
must be educated. People today
give lip service to the need for
good education but their actions
speak against them, as funding is
cut and teachers are demoralized
by constantly increasing class
sizes, discipline problems, and
too much paperwork.
Superintendent Colley has
been judicious, patient, cool
under pressure, has saved the
town money, has spent more
time than he is paid for — with
what reward? MCAS scores have
risen under his tenure. Parents
have found him accessible.
What a shame that we treat him
so shabbily!
Grace G. Newcomer
Westport
Violet shoots from hip, should apologize
To the editor:
In Arlene Violet's column in the October 9-10 East
Bay Life, "GOP shoots itself in the foot," she writes,
"The GOP has shown a way to avoid any background
check [for firearms]...by holding a raffle." She further
states "...no screening process is in place for the winner(s)."
These statements are untrue and alarmist. The
holders of the raffle have said that no winner will be
handed a gun; Rather, they will have to get their prize
through a licensed firearms dealer and go through
the same checks as anyone obtaining a gun in Rhode
Island.
Ms. Violet has not done her homework and owes
an apology to the RIGOP and, more importantly, to
her readers.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Coal plant will indeed be missed
To the editor:
Once again, emotion rules and
the facts are ignored; after all, it
is too inconvenient to tell the
truth. It is amazing how radical
environmentalists can get away
with that.
Brayton Point Station can produce about 1,537 Megawatts
[MW] of electric power. That can
light 1,500,000 homes. Those
cooling towers and the remainder of the improvements to clean
up plant emissions cost $1 billion. So, now, with the station
closing, how are you going to
replace all that energy loss? How
are you going to provide inexpensive electric power to New
Bedford, Fall River, Rhode Island
and other South Coast homes,
hospitals, schools and industrial
plants?
Let's talk solar: In order to produce 1 MW of power, a solar
array must cover about five acres
of ground per MW. So, in order to
produce 1,537 MW, the solar
array has to cover 7,685 acres [5 x
1,537]. Do tell us where the land
will be located, please?
How about the Fall River Freetown State Forest? Sorry, the
Commonwealth won't let you do
that. Anywhere else nearby?
Nope. Also, the sun does not
shine at night and sometimes
around here, not during the day,
either. Snow does not help and
we get certainly that precipitate
in the bay area.
Let's talk wind energy. Takes an
land area with a minimum of
about three acres per wind generator, each of which may produce about 3 MW. Problem is,
the wind does not blow 24 hours
a day, and, according to Wind
Energy America, it takes a minimum wind speed of about 6
meters per second for the windmills to generate electricity and
one wind generator can supply
up to 350 homes. Which means
that, if one Brayton could supply
1,500,000 homes, then it will take
up to 4,285 wind turbines to
replace Brayton and, at three
acres per turbine, 12,857 acres of
land to support the array. Right
across the bay, of course.
Let's talk water power, the very
simple, most reliable and nearly
infinitely renewable resource to
produce electric power on the
planet. The cheapest and most
abundant source of hydro power
is from the Province of Quebec,
Canada. Although your local
electrical utilities have made
compacts with Quebec Hydro to
provide power into the ISO grid
in New England, friends of yours
in northern New Hampshire,
dear editors, have banded
together to stop the proposed
new power line from bringing
that electricity to power the
presses which print your little
newspaper. They call it the
Northern Pass Project.
Let's talk natural gas. For those
of us who study history and benefit by that study, it is a little
known fact that there is a coal
seam which runs under Aquidneck Island, all the way, perhaps,
to Plymouth, MA. Fracking anyone? Oh, no, not in MY back yard
[Origin of the term NIMBY]. So
much for cheap gas.
So, what to do? Wind farms in
the bay, or maybe, we had better
make that Block Island Sound.
After all, we can't disturb anyone's views, can we?
Electric bills going up? So
what? That's the price we have to
pay for putting 240 people out of
work and closing a plant that, at
one time, provided more than
$16 million in real estate tax revenues to the Town of Somerset.
Oh, and what about that? How is
the town going to replace those
lost revenues? Sell the Brayton
Point land to a developer. Guess
what? Nearly 95 percent of the
entire peninsula on which the
power plant is located is within a
FEMA flood zone. Sorry, folks,
the government can't help you
there.
Government going to help
replace the lost money? I don't
know. Ask the City of Fall River if
it has yet recovered from the
2,000 semi-skilled and skilled
jobs it lost when Quaker Fabric
went bankrupt in 2007? By the
way, Quaker was one of the
region's largest electricity users.
So, according to the Sakonnet
Times editor, we "...will be well
rid of [the] coal plant...". Indeed.
Tell it to the folks who lost their
jobs and to the Board of Selectmen in Somerset who will have
to come up with alternate ways
of raising money to support the
town. Chapter 9, anyone?
Whatever happened to the real
spirit of this area that made it an
industrial colossus? Where is the
pride that goes into the economic strength which was created in
this region because we have the
resources and manpower to produce it? Where is it?

The six-piece acoustic band features guitar, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, accordion and bass, with
three voices balancing out the
strings and bellows.
Danielle Miraglia comes armed

DARTMOUTH — The Allen’s
Neck Community Club will meet
on Monday, Oct. 28, at 7 p.m. at
the Friends Meeting House on
Horseneck Road. The program
will be presented by Mary Leeson
with the help of Karen Snyder. Ms.
Leeson, a member of the club and
a retired teacher, will speak about
her trip to Costa Rica and show
pictures taken while she was
there.
When she retired from 26 years
of teaching in Dartmouth, her
dream was to travel into the
remote mountains of Costa Rica
and distribute books to members
of the indigenous Baruka tribe.
She hoped to have a “Book in
Every Hand.” She and her son,
Russell, spent the first week of the
trip touring Costa Rica. During the
second week she hiked into the
mountains alone to give out
books along the way. She had contacted the leader of the tribe
beforehand to pave the way. She
will describe her journey in detail,
and talk about the people she met.
A short business meeting will
follow the program, with refresh-

‘Remembering Adamsville’ exhibit’s final weekend
Outdoor closing
celebration, book
signing and coffee hour
at Gray’s Grist Mill
WESTPORT/LITTLE COMPTON — On Saturday, Oct. 26, from
11 a.m. to 1 p.m., the Little Compton Historical Society, Gray’s Daily
Grind and Gray’s Grist Mill will cohost a book signing and coffee
hour to celebrate the final weekend of the “Remembering
Adamsville” outdoor exhibition.
The temporary outdoor exhibit
opened in July and features over
40 roadside signs highlighting
Adamsville’s historic people,
places and things. The illustrated
signs point out missing churches
and libraries, underground wagon
scales, Adamsville’s famous Spite
Tower and the still-operating
Gray’s Grist Mill just to name a few
sites.
The exhibit is easily accessible
by car or foot and is free and open
to the public. Maps to the signs
will be available during the coffee
hour. The exhibit will remain up
through Monday, Oct. 28.
One of Adamsville’s most
unique features is that the village
encompasses three different
towns and two states. Saturday’s
books signing and coffee hour will
take place at Gray’s Daily Grind
and Gray’s Grist Mill both located
at 638 Adamsville Road just over
the R.I. state line in Westport.
Plentiful parking is available
across the street in the field overlooking the Adamsville Pond dam.
During the coffee hour,
Adamsville residents whose oral
history interviews appear in the
book “Remembering Adamsville,”
will be on hand to sign copies. The
book features 58 oral histories
shared by people with strong ties
to the village of Adamsville. It is for
sale at the Wilbor House Museum,
Gray’s Daily Grind and other local
retailers.
Anyone purchasing a copy of
the book during the event will be
treated to a free coffee courtesy of
Gray’s Daily Grind. The book’s
cover features a portrait of Thornton Simmons, the miller at Gray’s
Grist Mill.
Though the outdoor exhibit is
closing, the information and
images discovered during the
“Remembering Adamsville” project will live on through the book
and the resources of the Little
Compton Historical Society.
Much of the material featured in
the outdoor exhibit is also available online at SakonnetHistoric
al.com. For more information, call
the historical society at 401/6354035 or Gray’s Daily Grind at
774/264-9669.

New faces, programs at Macomber School
BY ALEC CIMINELLO
Principal, Macomber School
The Macomber School welcomed its students in early September. With all the new student
faces were a few new teachers
and programs as well.
Art, music and physical education are back at MAC. I am pleased
to introduce Amanda Howland,
Claudia Gonzalez and Gary
Parziale. Ms. Howland teaches the
children music — she comes to us
with a few years experience and
ready to infuse the love of music
into the students of the
Macomber School. She is a graduate of Anna Maria College and a
working musician in swing, concert and jazz combos.
Ms. Gonzalez is our art teacher.
She is working with all the students on their art education and
the love of all art mediums. She is
a graduate of Bridgewater State
University and is presently in a
master’s program at BSU and has
conducted many student art
shows. She previously taught in
an enrichment program and she
supports the MSPCA by selling
holiday items she has made.
Finally, Mr. Parziale (Mr. P) —
you will find him on the field with
the students or in the gym teaching the youngsters about games,
play and staying active. He is a
graduate of Bridgewater State
University and Cambridge College. He is Marine veteran and
father of two boys. He has extensive coaching background and
years of elementary teaching
experience.
Also joining the Macomber

Cyclists pedal east from Westport along the south shore. Buzzards Bay Coalition photo.
Bicyclists boost Buzzards Bay with long ride
One hundred thirty cyclists
pedaled across Southeastern
Massachusetts on Sunday, Oct. 6,
to show their support for a clean
and healthy Buzzards Bay during
the Buzzards Bay Coalition’s seventh annual Buzzards Bay Watershed Ride. The scenic 75-mile
bike route runs from Westport to
Falmouth.
The event has so far raised
more than $63,000 to support the
nonprofit coalition’s education,
conservation, research and advocacy work. Supporters can still
donate to the Watershed Ride
through October 31 at www.saveb u z z a r d s b a y. o r g / W a t e r shedRide.
“The Buzzards Bay Coalition’s
work in educating and advocating for the health of the Bay is
close to my heart,” said Ian Duff
of New Bedford, a sailor and
cyclist who rode in his second
Watershed Ride. “I participate in
the Watershed Ride because I
want to give back to the commu-
nity.”
The first riders rode away from
Westport Rivers Vineyard and
Winery at 9 a.m., winding
through Westport’s coastal farmland, Padanaram village, New
Bedford’s working waterfront,
the leafy Fairhaven bike path and
Mattapoisett’s rural roads before
stopping for lunch at Eastover
Farm in Rochester. There, additional riders joined the Watershed Ride for the final 35 miles
through Wareham’s cranberry
bogs, over the Bourne Bridge and
down Falmouth’s Shining Sea
Bikeway to end at Quissett Harbor in Falmouth.
Along the way, riders had to
pedal through a few passing rain
showers. But organizers said
everybody was in great spirits at
the finish line, where riders and
their guests were welcomed with
warm food, drinks, prizes, complimentary massages, and live
music from The Dancing Dogs.
“Everything about the Water-
Bicycle repairman Dave Gilbert helps cyclist Michael Heyman get a

shed Ride is so nicely organized
and beautifully supported –
there are amazing volunteers,
and tons of them!” said Leslie
Knowles, a seven-time water-
shed rider from South Dartmouth and one of this year’s top
fundraisers. “And the party at the
end was just great.”
The Watershed Ride drew
cyclists from across Southeastern Massachusetts and New England, and as far away as New
York, Washington, D.C., and Australia.
The top fundraiser was Andy
van Dam of Barrington, R.I., who
raised $4,150. Having once lived
along the race course in Falmouth, Mr. van Dam said the
Watershed Ride is like coming
home for him, providing extra
motivation to fundraise. “It’s a
great cause, one that I believe in
strongly, so I worked the network
for support. Folks were happy to
support this great organization.”
The Buzzards Bay Watershed
Ride is one of two signature outdoor events hosted by the coalition. The other is the Buzzards Bay
Swim, a 1.2-mile open-water
swim across outer New Bedford
Harbor. The 21st annual Buzzards
Bay Swim will take place Saturday,
June 28, 2014. More information is
available at www.savebuzzardsbay.org/Swim.

Her water work out of this world
Former THS
valedictorian works
on clean water
for astronauts
Research done by a former
Tiverton High School valedictorian may someday help provide a
more reliable flow of clean water
to space explorers.
Heather Jamieson, a 2008 Tiverton High School graduate, has
been selected as one of 65 graduate students to the 2013 class of
Space Technology Research Fellows.
She’s now a graduate student
(PhD fellow) in chemical engineering at Arizona State University in Tempe, Az., and her project
carries a long name: Nanosized
Linde Type A Zeolites Providing
Water-Selective Transport Pathways Through Chlorine Tolerant
Polymers in Molecular Sieve
Nanocomposite (MoSIN) Membranes for Reclamation of
Impaired Waters.
It’s all about finding better ways
to filter waste water into drinking
water for astronauts.
“One of the challenges faced by
NASA is providing clean water
from the limited supplies available in the isolated environment
of a space shuttle or station,” Ms.
Jamieson said. “A viable option is
recycling water from all available
sources, namely urine and urine
brine, through the use of membrane processes such as reverse
osmosis.”
The challenge, her proposal
states, is developing materials that
allow water through while separating out contaminants.
“We propose a membrane that
consists of a thin polymer top layer containing molecular sieve
nanoparticles that are highly
selective for water,” she writes.
JESSICA SLATER/ASU
Heather Jamieson works in the laboratory at Arizona State University.
This will be applied to a “porous
support layer that will allow for
high water flux.”
Present commercial reverse
osmosis membranes do a poor job
of rejecting some substances
found in urine. Ultrafine nanoparticle sieves hold great promise, she
wrote, but “such membranes are
brittle, and require high temperatures to produce. Our membrane
design will likely provide excellent
separation, decreased cost of production ... flexibility and long-
term durability.”
Ms. Jamieson credits a Tiverton
High School teacher with stirring
her interest in chemical engineering at a young age.
“My high school chemistry
teacher, Mrs. Busse, definitely had
a big influence on my interest in
chemistry. She was an excellent
teacher and always let us learn
chemistry the fun way. I also have
a great love of math, which seems
to be genetic, so I decided to put
them together and study chemical
engineering.”
After leaving Tiverton High
School, Ms. Jamieson went on to
graduate summa cum laude from
the University of Rhode Island in
2012 with a BS degree in chemical
engineering. She is a member of
Tau Beta Pi, and the American
Institute of Chemical Engineers.
At Arizona State, Ms. Jamieson
said she explored several areas of
chemical engineering before
focusing on membrane technologies.
“The separation aspect appeals
to my lifelong need for organization. Now I get to figure out how to
organize molecules! My adviser,
Dr. Mary Laura Lind, encouraged
me to apply for this fellowship, as
it seemed to be a perfect fit for our
research. Plus, I have always
thought it would be really cool to
work for NASA, so I feel very lucky
to have this opportunity.”
“By partnering with and invest-
“My high school
chemistry teacher, Mrs.
Busse, definitely had a

interest in chemistry.”

ing in America’s brightest minds,

Fisherman’s Boat from Portsmouth sinks, skipper rescued
Ball is Nov. 16
Truscott to receive
Crow’s Nest Award
LITTLE COMPTON — The
Sakonnet community will mark
the end of this summer season
by celebrating the time-honored
Fisherman’s Ball on Saturday,
Nov. 16, from 6-10 p.m. at the
Sakonnet Point Club. The event,
which is open to the public, will
also celebrate this year’s winner
of the Crow’s Nest Award,
William “Ted” Truscott.
The Fisherman’s Ball enjoys a
rich history dating back to 1939.
Life Magazine featured a pictorial of the event in October of
1940.
A highlight is the awarding of
the Crow’s Nest Award. This tradition, established anonymously
in 1967, trumpets the Point’s Citizen of the Year. The recipient
must be a resident, employed at
the Point, a fisherman, or regular
visitor and have made a significant personal difference to the
general wellbeing of the Sakonnet area.
The bronze award is mounted
to the transom of an old skiff taken from the Fo’c’s’le. The committee of 1967 created the
bronze award featuring Ahab
standing in the Crow’s Nest looking through the long glass hoping to sight the great white whale
— “We all spend some time in
the ‘crow’s nest’ in search of
something.” The Committee
hoped the award would serve to
recognize at least a few of those
who keep their long glass in
focus.
The award is permanently displayed at the entrance of the
Sakonnet Point Club bar. It is not
presented each year, only when
the committee decides there is a
worthy nominee.
This year’s menu will feature a
raw bar, a carving Station with
prime rib and blackened pork
loin, hors d’oeuvres, and a clam
chowder station. Cost is $35,
children under 12, $10. A cash
bar will be available. To keep
with tradition, guests are
encouraged to come in nautical/fishing attire. Space is limited, — call (401) 635-2582 x406
early for tickets.
Coast Guard rescue crews from
Station Castle Hill along with a
good samaritan rescued a man
whose 38-foot boat had caught
fire and was sinking near the
entrance to the Sakonnet River at
2:30 p.m. Saturday.
Watchstanders at Section
Southeastern New England
received a call via cell phone
from the operator confirming
that he was the only one
onboard, had not sustained any
injuries and was abandoning
ship into his 8-foot dinghy.
Another boater arrived at the
dinghy within 15 minutes and
recovered the man who was later
transferred to a 45-foot Coast
Guard boat which took him to
the station. He was evaluated by
the Coast Guard EMT at the station who recommended no further medical treatment.
Several fire departments dispatched boats, among them
Portsmouth and Middletown.
The boat sank while firefighters
were fighting the fire.
The boat, identified by the
Coast Guard as a fiberglass
Blackfin 38 named Black Jack,
was homeported in Portsmouth.
The Coast Guard is investigating
the incident and did not disclose
the name of the owner.
The 38-foot boat Black Jack
caught fire and sank near the

Rodrigues named to power plant task force
Will help plan for coal
plant shutdowns
Senator Michael Rodrigues (DWestport) was appointed last week
to serve on the state’s Plant Revitalization Task Force, a committee
charged with developing a plan,
adopting rules and regulations,
and recommending legislative
action to ensure the full deconstruction, remediation, and redevelopment or repowering of certain power plants across the Commonwealth.
“With the recent and sudden
announcement that Brayton Point
Power Plant plans to close in 2017,
this appointment to the Plant Revitalization Task Force could not
have come at a more critical junc-
ture,” said Senator Rodrigues. “I am
eager to serve and committed to
ensuring the needs of the community of Somerset and the employees of Brayton Point are addressed
as we work together in planning
the future of coal-fired power
plants and the communities that
host them.”
The Plant Revitalization Task
Force was created as part of “An Act
Relative to the competitively
priced electricity in the Commonwealth,” and was initially intended
to plan for the decommission of
the Salem Harbor Power Station by
December 31, 2016. Since then, the
Task Force has expanded in scope,
and is now also required to make
similar plans for other coal-fired
power plants that may face closure
prior to December 31, 2017.
Under the law, the Task Force has
three goals: (1) options for the full
financing of the cleanup of Salem
Harbor Power Station, (2) the identification of existing state or federal
programs available that may assist
in the redevelopment or repowering of the site; and (3)the creation
of new programs, grants, or other
incentives to encourage the redevelopment or repowering of the
site.
Richard Sullivan, secretary of
energy and environmental affairs,
serves as chairman of the Plant
Revitalization Task Force. He
formed three subcommittees; Sen.
Rodrigues has been chosen to
serve as a member of the Task
Force’s Subcommittee on the
Decommissioning of Future
Plants.

Little Compton —
‘Best Small Town’
Little Compton, a “quintessential New England town” has made Executive Travel magazine’s list of ‘America’s Best Small Towns.’ The article,
appearing in the September issue, selects a dozen small places. The Little Compton piece is accompanied by a photo of the Historical Society’s
Wilbor House.
About Little Compton, the authors write, “Looking for the quintessential New England town? You can’t get much closer than Little Compton, Rhode Island. Just a swim away from neighboring Massachusetts,
the tiny village was settled back in the 17th century by folks from Plymouth Colony who wanted to expand their land holdings. History and
architecture buffs won’t want to miss the Wilbor House, built in 1692
and now home to the Little Compton Historical Society. Be sure to
explore the town commons too, one of only three in the state, the whole
of which is on the National Register of Historic Places. Lloyd’s Beach,
where locals (and visitors in the know) go to swim, is just down the road.
The entrance can be formidable, but battle valiantly past the rocks and
a lovely swath of sand awaits your towel. End the day with a sea-to-table
dinner at the Sakonnet Point Marina. Locally caught lobster and oysters
pair perfectly with glasses of award-winning Gewürztraminer from Carolyn’s Sakonnet Vineyards. Better yet, stop by the winery for a tasting
and a tour of the vine-covered grounds.”

Under siege
BY CHRIST Y NADALIN
[email protected]
Annie LaBrie, a 35 year-old
mother of three school-age children, has a soft-spoken manner
that belies her fierce determination
to share her message with friends,
neighbors, and the ever-expanding
world of people affected by the disease that has robbed her of much
of the past two years of her life.
Annie’s bright-eyed and expressive face gives no clue about the
chronic pain and exhaustion that
had plagued her slow recovery
from her two most recent bouts
with Lyme disease. In reality, this
meeting is likely costing her an
opportunity to rest before her children get off the school bus—no
small sacrifice, considering she
also works part-time as a speech
therapist.
Raising her young family in the
same rural Rehoboth home in
which she grew up, surrounded by
undeveloped and thickly-forested
land, it’s a beautiful place to make a
home. It’s also ideal habitat for
deer—and the Lyme-disease carrying ticks that they host.
Annie’s first bout with Lyme was
actually back in college. At the time
she was treated with the standard
protocol—a round of antibiotics.
But when she was reinfected in the
summer of 2012, things were dif-
S
ferent. She never saw a tick, or the
giveaway bullseye rash, but she
was stricken with terrible
migraines and a stiff neck. The traditional “western blot” test for
Lyme was negative, but, as she has
since found out, that’s meaningless.
“The test has about a 50% failure
rate,” she says. “I was fortunate that
my physician recognized it for
what it was.” Annie began the
antibiotic protocol, but after 4
days, her symptoms worsened.
“I was hallucinating. I was diagnosed with Lyme meningitis—the
Lyme had actually entered my
spinal fluid and traveled to my
brain.”
She spent a week in the hospital,
and on the day she was discharged
the attending physician told Annie,
“You are going to hear about
chronic Lyme disease. There is no
such thing.”
“I believed him,” Annie said. She
would have plenty of opportunity
to regret that. Her migraines never
really went away; her energy never
really returned. Then this past July,
her symptoms intensified again.
Once again, she would not respond
satisfactorily to the antibiotic protocol, and once again, she was hospitalized with Lyme Disease.
The head of Infectious Disease at
the hospital where Annie received
RICHARD W. DIONNE JR.
Annie LaBrie, 35, is recovering from her second debilitating battle with Lyme Disease in less than two years.
treatment even tried to suggest
that her symptoms were the result
of “nerves,” as he sent her home,
claiming she was “treated.”
The fact that Annie is currently
recovering slowly, after more than
two months of antibiotic therapy
through a PICC line, is something
she credits her personal physician.
“Thank God for Dr. (Alan) Dennison,” she says. “He fought hard to
get me the treatment I needed. I
feel he saved my life.” Annie does
point out that Dr. Dennison is a
primary care physician, and anyone looking for a Lyme specialist
should use the search engine provided by The Lyme Disease Association: www.lymediseaseassociation.org.
Annie has lost two summers with
her young children, daily chores
continue to be a struggle, and she
has recently learned that two of her

well over 1,000 miles out into the

since then, the boat has wandered

“Scout is now basically a message in a bottle that’s 1,300 miles
away from the New England

Davis wins S Boat series
Geoff Davis sailed Aquila to victory in the Narragansett Bay Herreshoff S Class series after a summer long battle with second place
winner Sheldon Whitehouse and
Osprey.
Davis’ season-ending total of
0.9364 edged Whitehouse’s 0.9313
for the title.
The two boats dominated the
14-boat fleet, with one or the other taking first place 13 times
(Aquila did it six times, Osprey
won seven) in the 22-race series.
Walter Bopp and Mischief won
four times but missed too many
races to qualify.
The rest of the 10 season qualifiers were:
3. Firefly, Alan Silken
4. Surprise, Fred Roy

7. Pirate, Bob Patterson
8. Papoose, Leeds Mitchell IV

The Hawks are 15th in the
women’s racing poll.
Brown University is eighth in he

the women’s poll. Yale University
leads both polls.
Alerion 41 nominated
Cruising World magazine has
nominated the new Alerion 41,
built by USWatercraft in Warren,
in its 2014 Boat of the Year competition. It is among three choices
for the midsize cruisers category.
Says the nominating committee, “The latest Alerion to join the
growing family of gorgeous-tolook-at and glorious-to-sail daysailers is the 41. But this new model takes things a step further with
standing headroom and staterooms for two couples, making it
an easy-to-handle coastal cruiser
that will still turn heads.”
Salty Dawg his century mark
What began a few years ago
with a Bristol couple’s attempt to
assemble a small group of friends
to sail south together in the fall,
has grown to become the dominant cruising rally – The Salty
Dawg Rally – on the U.S. East
Coast.
Co-founders Bill and Linda
Knowles say that more than 100
boats registered this year to depart
from East Coast ports in early
November. The 2013 Salty Dawg
Rally broke the ‘century mark’ of
100 boats shortly after this year’s
Newport International Boat Show,
where the Knowles had a booth.
“The first fall, in 2011, we had 32
boats join; last fall we had 59
boats, and so far this year we have
more than 100 boats, and more
may join before we depart,” Linda
Knowles said. “That’s enough that,
if they were lined up end to end,
the line would be close to a mile in
length.
The Salty Dawg Rally, free for
all participants, was launched by
the Knowles with their Jeanneau
54DS, Sapphire, and their Jack
Russell terrier, Brie, the original
‘Salty Dawg’. The rally leaves
Hampton, Virginia and other
U.S. East Coast ports in the fall,
headed for the British Virgin
Islands (BVI) and other ports in
the Caribbean, and returns in the
spring. The rally is comprised of
blue water sailors who have
completed at least one blue
water passage.
Mr. Knowles said credits amaraderie and benefits for the
growth. “Our Rally improves constantly due to an increasing number of sponsors, and the benefits
that they bring to participants not
merely in gifts and merchandise,
but in sponsored educational programs and seminars that we hold.
Participation in the rally is free,
but more importantly, due to the
length of time spent together in
the fall, friendships are developed
that last forever. Our Dawgs are
always running into each other in
other ports up and down the
Caribbean.”

Guard against the “ticknado”
Take steps to tick-proof
your property
While it’s virtually impossible to guarantee you’ll never be bitten by a tick,
there are steps you can take to reduce
the risk. While you may think that, like
mosquitoes, the risk of encountering a
tick vanishes over the winter, the truth is
that cold weather actually drives deer
closer to human development for forage,
carrying ticks with them.
In addition to insecticides, there are
numerous deer repellants on the market
that can be used to compel deer to go
elsewhere for forage. Annie LaBrie
prefers a natural garlic-based tick-repellant spray over insecticides, although she
notes that you do need to reapply often.
Her husband Joshua has distributed
several “tick tubes” in their yard as well.
These are basically tubes stuffed with
cotton that have been treated with permetherin, a synthetic insecticide. Mice
(who carry Lyme) pull the cotton from
the tubes and carry it back to their nests.
According to the CDC, there are several housekeeping tasks that will help
encourage a tick-safe yard:
■ Remove leaf litter.
■ Clear tall grasses and brush around
house and lawn.
■ Place a barrier of wood chips or
gravel between lawns and wooded areas
(3 feet is the recommendation) to restrict
tick migration.
■ Mow frequently.
■ Stack wood neatly and keep dry, to
discourage mice.
■ Keep swing sets and furniture away
from perimeter of yard.
■ Fence to keep animals out.
■ Remove debris and trash that give
ticks a place to hide.

HOME IMPROVEMENT
Staying powered up when the power is down
Weather events of the past few
years have tested both the power
grid and patience of East Bay residents, most recently (but certainly not the least) being last
years’s power-killing blizzard.
Accustomed to tropical-induced
outages, the extended blackout
in the middle of a winter freeze
was a chilling reality check for
the large number of us who realized that, without electricity, we
had no heat.
But it’s not just blackouts that
cause problems when it’s cold—
water can seep into cracks and
then freeze, causing damage
from your roof to your driveway.
In advance of the cold weather,
here are a few basic steps you can
take to protect your home:
Clean your gutters
Leaves and small branches can
build up in your gutters, preventing water from draining off the
roof. When this water freezes it
can create an ice dam, damaging
shingles and creating roof leaks.
Seal concrete
When water gets into concrete
cracks in the winter, it will freeze
and expand the original crack,
forcing replacement of the damaged concrete. Inspect your dri-
veway and any sidewalk on your
property before the first frost, so
you can proactively stop damage
before it starts.
Insulate
Protect pipes from freezing by
wrapping with pipe insulation.
Check your doors and windows
for leaks or gaps and fill with
caulk or weather stripping.
Despite best efforts, bad
weather still happens, shutting
down systems and damaging
property. Clearly, the ideal
answer is a standby generator,
but for many (if not most) of us,
the large size and prohibitive
cost of such a system makes it
less than practical.
But the impact of an extended
power outage can be significant:
from spoiled food and frozen
pipes to failed pumps, all systems may be affected. And personal safety may also be a concern, depending on circumstances.
DO:
Prepare a plan that covers
emergency evacuation and rendezvous plans, along with contact details for family and emergency contact numbers.
Prepare a survival stash of food,
water, and first aid supplies—at
least 3 days’ worth—that you can
access easily when needed.
Turn off or unplug major appliances and unplug minor ones, to
minimize damage and prevent
system overload when the power
is restored.
DON’T:
Connect a portable generator
directly into the electrical system
of your home. Ever. You could fry a
costly element of your home’s
electrical infrastructure, or worse,
create a dangerous—even deadly—buildup of carbon monoxide
inside your home.
Renovate with resale in mind
When you are making improvements to
your home it’s important to have a sense of
how long you plan to hold on to the property. If you are already in your “forever home,”
do what makes you happy. But if you plan to
sell down the road, and can’t afford to throw
your money away, carefully consider what
changes increase the value of a home vs
those that can actually reduce its value.
According to Realtor Chris Woodard, of
Keller Williams in Bristol, “Most folks realize
at this point—because of all of the home
improvement shows—that kitchens and
bathrooms are what help sell properties
quicker. When thinking about what will
help increase the value of a property for
resale, don’t consider a personal preference
like a pool. Some buyers are actually turned
off by the thought of a pool and will move
on to another property. Even things like koi
ponds can overwhelm buyers simply
because they don’t know how to care for
them.”

things to do—and some to avoid—when
allocating your home improvement dollars:
Do:
■ Update kitchen, especially with natural
materials like wood and stone; and update
appliances.
■ Update bathrooms, also with quality
materials. And consider installing a
whirlpool bath.
■ Update flooring with wood, stone or
tile—not linoleum.
■ Take any opportunity to add light,
either with upgraded doors, added windows, even skylights.
■ Landscape!
Don’t:
■ Add carpet. “Used” carpet, no matter
how well-maintained, can turn off many
buyers.
■ As Chris says, avoid pools and ponds,
or anything that might look like work to a
buyer.
■ Go crazy with colorful wall paint.
Sticking with neutrals will be more
appealing to many buyers looking for a
turnkey property.
■ If your roof needs help, prioritize that.
It not only helps maintain your property,
realtors know that bad roofs are often
deal-breakers. Buyers won’t see your gorgeous renovated bathrooms if they are fixated on your crumbling roof.

HOME IMPROVEMENT
Mixed Media: Electronics and cabinetry made for each other
Horner Millwork and
Home Genius make home
automation and sound
technology an art
BY NICK SOLLECI TO
Our tradition of craftsmanship
extends back three generations
to a small village outside of Bari,
Italy, where quality Italian workmanship is passed down from
generation to generation. Our
family began Home Genius, Inc.
in 1998 with a vision to offer its
customers the highest level of
service, and a complete solution
to the many technologies available to the homeowner.
Generation Tech
Just as smartphones and
tablets are now commonplace in
our lives, the ability to wirelessly
control lights, temperature,
audio and security in our homes
is widely available. And as amazing and convenient the technology is, most people don’t want to
see it. That is where Home
Genius moves ahead of the pack.
Our meticulous craftsmanship
provides the tech-savvy homeowner with elegant cabinetry
solutions. We can provide architectural speakers, structured
wiring and a built-in entertainment system that hides (or shows
off) your big screen.
Truly custom cabinetry
The bulk of our business
remains in traditional custom
cabinetry — kitchens, closets
and built-ins, although many of
our jobs are not so traditional.
We’ve done custom murphy
beds, cigar lockers and a bookcase door. Because we are not
limited by stock sizes and stock
options, your design is truly customized to whatever you can
imagine.
It’s genius
The partnership of Horner
Millwork and Home Genius gives
you the flexibility to create living
spaces that work with your lifestlyle. For 65 years, Horner Millwork has provided builders and
homeowners with quality products and a knowlegeable sales
staff. Adding home electronics
and custom cabinetry to their
existing product line of windows,
doors, cabinets, stairs, moldings,
hardwood flooring and custom
millwork — well, we think it’s
genius.
Nick Sollecito is designer and
operations manager at Horner
Millwork-Home Genius Division.
Custom cabinetry can be built for
entertainment centers, kitchens
or elegant storage.

late in the season, there are lovely, symmetrical trees of every
size and shape.
Many farms also offer free baling or netting (making it much
easier to get the tree into or onto
your car), crafts, decorations,
greens, wreaths, pony or wagon
rides, visits from Santa and
refreshments. So, make it a day

POLI-TICKS
Licht, Langevin, and
librarians, oh my!
W
ith all the antics in
D.C. between the
Democrats and
Republicans, local legends are getting an (almost) free pass with a
circus of their
own. Here are
three L’s—Licht,
Langevin and
librarians—that
have all recently
boosted Little
Rhody’s “yuck”
factor. And all
Arlene
these wounds
VIOLET
are self-inflicted.
Richard Licht—The current Director of Administration for
Governor Lincoln Chafee now
wants to be a Superior Court
judge and follow in the footsteps
of his uncle, Frank Licht. Back in
1974 there was a special interest
piece of legislation, initially
designed to benefit a republican,
which applied to the then-former
democrat governor, providing him
special pension benefits. Now the
nephew will become another beneficiary, if he is appointed to the
Court and the law is left intact,
ultimately earning about $128,000
per year in his pension (vs. the
roughly $49,000 for which he
presently qualifies.) He can also
retire at age 62.
Mr. Licht has already gotten a
free ticket by the Ethics Commission which has fallen all over itself
to determine that he is not a “policy-maker,” meaning he doesn’t
have to abide by the state’s revolving door legislation which would
make him wait a year before
applying for the post.
Lincoln Chafee should show us
some of the “Trust Chaffee” motto
he ran on and refuse to appoint
him.
Alternatively, the solons on
Smith Hill should repeal the law
before any such appointment. The
law is a piece of foolishness and a
relic of a reckless time of pension
giveaways.
Congressman James Langevin—
Congressman Langevin has made
an announcement that he unwittingly made a profit on an investment scheme that apparently
preyed on terminally ill people.
WJAR-TV reported that he loaned
money to a relative who made the
investment and paid Mr. Langevin
back the money plus an $8600
return. He eschews any knowledge of the details of the loans,
and refused to disclose the
amount and terms of the loan or
the terms. He says he has since
donated the money to charity.
In other words, he got caught in
an unsavory deal. It’s hard to
imagine how “unwitting” his
“loan” was, since the Congressman pinches the buffalo on his
personal nickel until it bellows.
His former republican challenger
has said that the money was given
to the highest campaign donor to
the Congressman’s re-election
campaign. More investigation is
needed.
Librarians—Some Rhode Island
librarians think that they have to
reform the image of those in their
profession by posing in a calendar
adorned with their respective tattoos. Why librarians, who uniformly are about the smartest
professionals on the globe, need
any image change is beyond me.
They are already among the
“coolest people” in society—
because of their brains. They need
not apologize to today’s youth for
being “grandmother’s” library.
Granny is doing just fine, thank
you, because of the renaissance
women (and men) who have
graced the library system.
Sometimes it’s fine to just
respect tradition. What’s next, a
calendar of nuns bearing tattoos?
Yuck!
Have a wild(life) Halloween!
This Saturday, Oct. 26, Wildlife Rehabilitators Association of Rhode Island will be holding their 10th

TRASH OR TREASURE?
STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE
What’s the pedigree of “Henry” the horse?
Q. I have an antique carousel
horse we named “Henry” that I
bought years ago. It has been a
well-loved addition to my home,
enjoyed by my children and
grandchildren.
My horse measures overall 58”
long (from tip of
tail to outermost
knee) by 48”
high (top of
head to bottom
of outstretched
Karen
and 9”
WATERMAN leg),
wide. The body
is 38” long, 14” high and 9” wide.
It does not have any markings or
labels to identify it. Can you help
me to date and value this?
A. Originating in Europe,
carousels reached a peak in
America in the 1900s. Many
skilled European wood carvers
emigrated to the United States in
the late 1800’s to satisfy the
demand for carousels. The carved
horses became very elaborate,
with designs modeled after the
pageantry and battle regalia horses wore in medieval times.
The heyday of American
carousels (about 4000 were made
in all) lasted until the Depression,
when people had less disposable
income and the existing amusement parks and carousels
seemed adequate enough to satisfy the demand. By the time the
economy improved, technology
had advanced enough so the production of labor-intensive wooden carousels was not warranted.
Many were sold and dismantled,
parts sold or thrown away.
Carousels which at one time were
the centerpiece of a park were
now considered a ride for only
children to enjoy. Today, fewer

than 150 exist in the entire country. Rhode Island is fortunate
enough to have several.
The horses became popular in
the 1970’s as unique home
décor—as well as a market for
fakes. Your horse does appear to
have some seams which originals
would have (or they would be too
heavy.) The authentic original
horses had finely painted details
and the overall finish should be
very smooth. Some included real
horsehair tails and manes, leather
saddles, and glass eyes. Most
horses would have their heads
tilted slightly to the right as the
carousel would turn in a counter
clockwise direction facing the
outside of the carousel.
Your horse may be authentic
but it is not meeting the criteria
of top-level examples found. To
learn more and get the opinion of
a specialist, go to the website for
the International Museum of
Carousel Art at www.carouselmuseum.com or
www.carousels.com, as it is a
good reference source and dealer
of carousel horses.

atching Shane Victorino’s grand slam
fly over the Green
Monster was the perfect way to
cap off the Red Sox pennantwinning season. Victorino came
to Boston on a
contract that
seemed far too
rich for his
resume to join a
team that performed way too
poorly for what
they were paid.
Cara
the team
CROMWELL While
showed its grit
all year long, it took that blast to
secure Victorino’s spot in Boston
sports lore and send this
improbable team of awesome
onto the next chapter of a magical season. Sometimes the right
person just has to step up to the
plate at the right time.
When the dust from the federal shutdown-showdown settled
in Washington last week, there
were no grand slams and no
winners. Federal workers faced
two weeks of uncertainty and
financial peril, access to government resources were limited
and Congress’ approval rating
reached an all-time low. As the
impasse ended, several news
outlets noted that the brokers of
compromise were (wait for it)
moderate Republican women!
While the men on the far left
and far right were busy bashing
their heads against a wall and
pointing fingers, Senator Susan
Collins (ME), Senator Lisa
Murkowski (AK) and Senator
Kelly Ayotte (NH) stepped into
the fray and created the framework for compromise with
Democratic colleagues Senator
Barbara Mikulski (MD) and Senator Patty Murray (WA).
The New York Times captured
the perfect quote from Senator
Collins, “I don’t think it’s a coincidence that women were so heavily involved in trying to end this
stalemate. Although we span the
ideological spectrum, we are
used to working together in a collaborative way.” Without being
disrespectful, this sounds like
they were able to reduce the
shutdown showdown to the politics of a PTO meeting—and kept
everyone talking until the bake
sale brouhaha was resolved. The
truth is that women get things
done because we have to—we
have far too much #$%^ to do to
hang around jawing about ideology, what the Framers (who had
someone watching their kids and
cooking their meals so they could
think) would say and whether it’s
going to cost us a Senate seat. In
the same New York Times piece,
Senator Murkowski said, “I probably will have retribution in my
state. That’s fine. That doesn’t
bother me at all. If there is backlash, hey, that’s what goes on in
D.C., but in the meantime there is
a government that is shut down.
There are people who are really
hurting…Politics be damned.”
You go girl!
The one thing that I’ll take
away from the federal shutdown
is that we need more women in
politics. So why don’t more
women run for office? The
answer is predictable: we’re busy.
We’re working, raising children,
taking care of parents, volunteering in the community and supporting our spouses (not necessarily in that order). The less
politically correct and more
uncomfortable truth is that politics and governing has never
been “women’s work” in American culture and young women
are still reticent to say that they
want to lead when they grow up.
Sometimes it will even get them a
pat on the head and the question
“then who will raise your children?”
There are some signs that the
tide is turning. This week the
Colt-Andrews Student Government swears in its second consecutive all-girl slate of officers
(shout out to my little Parliamentarian) and in 2014 we can expect
more women to contend for
statewide office in Rhode Island. I
don’t expect to turn things
around in one season, but I will
be encouraging more women to
step up to the plate—and you
should too.

DINING REVIEW
Lucky’s fabulous food makes it a popular
neighborhood bar and restaurant
L
ucky’s Bar & Grille is a
popular neighborhood
spot for its great food and
lively atmosphere. Look for the
shamrock on the sign on Warren
Avenue (near the Seekonk line).
The dining room is long and
wide, with a bar along one side
and a divider down the middle.
There are hardwood floors, with
tables and chairs, a banquette
along one wall and high tops
along the divider on the bar side.
Thirteen large-screen HD flat
screens ring the room — showing
everything from golf to football,
basketball and hockey. Great
music is added to the convivial
mix of talk and laughter, all of
which makes Lucky’s such a fun
spot.
We settled at the marbletopped bar on a busy Thursday
night. A game on the huge screen
in front of us raged between the
Boston Bruins and the Colorado
Avalanche. There’s only one problem at Lucky’s — deciding what
to order. The menu is extensive,
everything is freshly made to
order, expertly prepared, reasonably priced and always delicious.
Want a drink? Choose from fun
specialty cocktails (Lucky’s Apple
Pie and Hot Apple Pie) and martinis, beer (a list of 26 draft choices
alone that range from Shipyard
Pumpkin Ale to Ithaca Flower
Power IPA), margaritas, ciders
and 20 wines by the glass.
There are specials daily, too —
create your own pizza on Monday, build your own burger on
Tuesday, Wednesday is create
your own pizza and Trivia Night,
Thursday is Rib Night and Thursday night football, Friday offers a
Seafood Spectacular (baked or
fried), on Saturday it’s prime rib,
and on Slider Sunday, all sliders
are $2 and there’s trivia from 5 to
8 p.m. Plus, there’s live music on
Fridays and Saturdays.
And, every day, there are halfprice appetizers from 4 to 7 p.m.
Specials on our visit, Rib Night,
featured half or full racks of ribs
with fries and coleslaw, a bucket
of ribs, a turkey sandwich, and a
tower of onion rings.
At Lucky’s, everything is made
in-house from the fries and potato chips to the meatballs and piz-

New England clam chowder,
baked onion soup, baked chili
and chips, and salads.
There are four types of sliders,
10 gourmet burgers, 10 grilled
pizzas, sandwiches (steak,
Reuben, Cajun chicken club, veggie or Reuben fish wrap, steak
bomb, three chicken wraps, and
pulled pork) and salads that can
be topped with tuna salad, chicken, steak tips or shrimp.
For entrees (available after 5
p.m. daily), choose from fish and
chips, steak tips, baked cod,
chicken pot pie, meatloaf, lemon
panko chicken, Southwestern
smothered chicken, grilled sirloin, chicken and broccoli penne,
and four types of mac and cheese
(buffalo chicken, Irish, chicken
BMT (bacon, mushrooms and
tomato) or lobster.
Appetizers are so good, we
sometimes make a meal of them.
The Dublin Nachos (made with
Lucky’s housemade potato chips)
and the General Murphy Tso’s
chicken are favorites, but we
wanted to try the calamari, which
is lightly battered, fried until
golden and tossed in a garlic and
basil sauce with sliced banana
peppers, and served with a side of
marinara.
The Black Sod Bay shrimp are
another favorite — eight big,
meaty shrimp tossed in a sweet
and spicy aioli that leans more
spicy than sweet.
The baby back ribs are superb
— slow-cooked, cut apart, deepfried and then bathed in a secret
blend of sauces that have a hint
of citrus. Just marvelous, with a
sauce that’s not too spicy so the
sweet, tender meat isn’t overwhelmed.
The Lucky Pizza is a good
choice, with lots of mozzarella,
marinara sauce, pepperoni,
mushrooms and caramelized
onions. The thin grilled pizzas
have a nice, crisp crust.
The American steak sandwich
was a revelation, with a tender,
juicy sirloin steak layered on a
big, fresh torpedo roll, with melted American cheese, sautéed
mushrooms and onions, lettuce
and tomato. It’s obvious why it’s
so popular.
And, the housemade french
fries have lots of fresh potato flavor — cut with some of the skin
remaining, then fried crispy and
brown, but tender inside.
If you can handle it, there are
desserts — triple chocolate cake,
peanut butter cake and brownie
sundaes on our visit.
But, a clever idea is to have one
of Lucky’s special martinis — a
dessert in a glass. On our visit,
there was a chocolate peanut butter cup martini with chocolate
sauce drizzled in the bottom of
the glass, a peanutty martini, a
mound of whipped cream, chocolate shavings and a mini peanut
butter cup on top. And, the pumpkin cheesecake martini was equally gorgeous, creamy and sweet.

An abundance of apples
Food Dining
A
pple picking and Fall go
hand-in-hand, especially
in New England. What
better way to
celebrate the
season than to
eat some of the
many varieties
of apples grown
here in the
Northeast?
Local farms
Emily
are prolific and
DELCONTE varied, typically
grow dozens of different types of
apples, including Braeburn, Cortland, Gala, Fuji, Granny Smith,
McIntosh, and Pink Lady.
In addition to great taste and
texture, apples also pack a
healthy punch. Eat one with the
skin, and you’ll get 5gm of fiber
and tons of vitamin C. Apples
have been shown to be helpful in
cardiovascular and respiratory
health, and their high levels of
antioxidants even help prevent
cancer. You know what they say
about an apple a day...
Apple coleslaw
Makes 4 3/4-cup servings
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp. olive oil
2 tbsp. water
Harrison Ward, 3, of Bristol enjoys a recent apple-picking outing at
Young’s Farm in Little Compton.
1 cup green or purple cabbage, thinly sliced
1 whole red bell pepper, chopped
1/2 cup red onion, finely diced
1 large granny smith apple, thinly
sliced
1 tsp. dried basil
Pinch of ground black pepper
1. Whisk together a dressing of apple
cider vinegar, olive oil, and water.
2. In a large bowl, mix together cabbage, pepper, onion, apple, basil,
and black pepper.
3. Pour dressing over vegetable mixture. Toss well, serve cold.

The Golden Triangle of Sherry
BY PETER ANDREWS
Styles of Sherry, ranging from lightest/driest to most full & sweet
CSS, CSW, MBA
S
herry is a wildly misunderstood wine. A fortified
beauty from the southwest
of Spain, Sherry offers aromas and
flavors that no other wine can
offer. From the soil type, climate
and grape varietal, to origins in
“The Golden Triangle,” Sherry is a
wine that is well worth a try.
Nestled far southwest of Spain
lies the Golden Triangle region—
Jerez, El Puerto de Santa Maria (El
Puerto) & Sanlucar de Barrameda
(Sanlucar). Because of varying soil
types and climates, each of these
small regions offer unique styles
of Sherry.
Jerez lies furthest inland and is
known for its Albariza soil type.
Albariza is a spectacularly white
chalky soil that can absorb up to
33% of its own weight in water.
During the extremely hot & dry
summer months, the soil forms a
thick crust that prevents rapid
evaporation and keeps the vines
hydrated. The coastal regions of El
Puerto & Sanlucar offer a completely different soil type. They are
loam and sand-based, which
offers faster evaporation and riper
grapes. Jerez gives more elegance
while El Puerto & Sanlucar give
more power.
As the grapes are harvested and
fermented, there are several
grades the dry finished Sherry
receives. These grades determine
the final style of the Sherry.
(These styles range from the nonoxidatively aged Fino, Manzanilla
& Amontillado, to the oxidatively
aged Oloroso, Cream Sherry &
Palo Cortado).
At this point, the wine is fortified. The best & most elegant wine
will turn into Fino, Manzanilla &
Amontillado Sherry—which is fortified to no more than 15% ABV.
Wine destined for nutty & rich
Oloroso, Cream & Palo Cortado
Sherry will be fortified to 17%.
The alcohol percentage plays a
significant role in Sherry’s aging.
At 15% ABV, a film of frothy white
yeast known as the flor develops.
The flor cannot survive at any
more than 15% ABV. The Flor yeast
is an integral part in making nonoxidative styles of Sherry. This
yeast prevents the wine from oxygen (and oxidation) as it feeds on
the acidity in the wine. The Flor
can only develop in southwestern
Spain due its special climate characterized by humidity from the
FINO SHERRY
Very dry & pale sherry, with yeast
and almond notes. Drink very
well-chilled as an aperitif with
light tapas. Once opened, drink
within a day.
Matured non-oxidatively with
Flor.
MANZANILLA SHERRY
The lightest style of sherry; dry,
with obvious briny notes. Once
opened, drink within a day. Aged
non-oxidatively with Flor.
AMONTILLADO SHERRY
Amber color and dry; deeper,
darker complex flavors of dark
roasted nuts.
Once opened, drink within a week.
Aged oxidatively, without the Flor.
PALO CORTADO
A very rare, dry and subtle sherry.
Aroma tends to be similar to
Amontillado; flavor tends to be
similar to Oloroso. Matured
Oxidatively with Flor.
OLOROSO SHERRY
Full bodied and complex with aromas of dried fruit, tobacco and
nuts. Drink within a month of
opening. Aged Oxidatively without
the Flor.
CREAM SHERRY
Oloroso Sherry base to which
sweet wine from Pedro Ximenez
or Moscatel has been added. Very
Sweet. Drink within a month of
opening. Aged Oxidatively without
Flor.
PEDRO XIMENEZ SHERRY
Varietal Dessert wine; very sweet.
Notes of fig, jam and prunes with
a rustic earthy backbone. Drink
within a month of opening. Aged
Oxidatively, without the Flor.
sea air.
These climatic conditions are so
important that each Bodega (winery) has been designed to catch air
flow in the most efficient ways to
create the Flor.
Once the wine is fortified and is
destined for its style, it is time to
age it. The aging process happens
in what is known as the Solera System. Confusingly, solera has two
meanings; the aging system is
called the solera as well as the final
casks in which the wine is bottled
from are known as the solera.
Sherry aging with the flor
requires constant nourishment.
This comes in the form of fresh
wine entering the solera system.
So how is it done? As seen in the
image, there are many levels of
aging. The lead blender known as
the Capataz, takes no more than
1/3 of the wine from the solera. In
this case, the bottom row of casks
are to be bottled. As the Capataz
takes out his desired amount of
Sherry to be bottled, he will then
refill it from each previous Criadera. A criadera is simply each
level of aged casks. Once the Capataz reaches the top level, he will
refill that same quantity taken
with the newly fortified wine.
These solera casks can either be
aged with flor yeast or not—it all
depends on the style desired.
So, after all of that, you deserve a
glass of sherry! Now that you see
the intense amount of work that
goes into making sherry, don’t you
think it’s worth a second chance?
The complexity and longevity of
these wines is remarkable. Do not
be scared by the stuff your grandmother used to drink; the Sherry
of new is fun and exciting. It is
both food-friendly and surprisingly inexpensive.

the region’s culinary traditions at

Good Health IN THE EAST BAY
Be prepared before knee or
hip replacement surgery
By Dr. Jeremy McVay and
Cindy Larcher, PTA
“Be prepared”… a Scout motto
that applies to life in general. We
would like to help you prepare for
your knee or hip replacement surgery by giving you some information to help you before and after
your procedure. (Elbow, shoulder
and ankle joint replacements also
exist.)
Prior to your surgery, you should
prepare your home environment. It
is always important to be safety
conscious. You should consider
removing throw rugs or area rugs
to prevent a fall. Create a one-floor
environment, as stairs may be difficult at first. It may be recommended that you make one or two trips
up/down the stairs per day initially.
Also keep in mind you may be using
an assistive device such as a cane,
crutches or a walker.
More importantly, you should
prepare your body. An overall conditioning program before your surgery will speed your recovery.
Research has shown exercise and
stretching focused on strengthening
the muscles of the involved limb
and increasing your range of motion
can reduce your post procedure
rehabilitation time. You should
always discuss these activities with
your primary care doctor, surgeon
and/or physical therapist before
beginning a program.
The exercise program will be
designed by your therapist, using
the goals you helped develop during
the initial evaluation. Outpatient
physical therapy will help you
increase your range of motion and
strength after surgery. We will also
increase your body awareness with
balance and proprioception activities. Your body needs time to learn
that your prosthetic joint may perform as well as or better than your
biological joint did before surgery.
Recent research shows we should
utilize functional electrical stimulation to assist with this learning
process. FES can be used to reestablish the brain/body connection
to make muscles fire or to assist
with muscle strengthening.
Research shows most total knee
and hip replacement surgeries work
well. We know replacement joints
can last 20 years or more. It
should be expected that you may
resume activities performed before
surgery such as walking, swimming,
golf, and riding a bike. Your doctor
may prohibit high impact activities
such as running and jumping.
Studies indicate most patients are
happy with the results of their procedure.
Dr. Jeremy McVay is the
owner and director of
McVay Physical Therapy. Dr.
McVay is board certified and
has taken special topic
courses in the spine, foot
and ankle, shoulder and
aquatics. He has lectured at
Brown for more than 10
years. Cindy Larcher is a
graduate of the Physical
Therapist Assistant program
at CCRI. She is board certified as a licensed PTA. Cindy
furthers her knowledge
through continuing education courses, including the
Sarah Meeks Comprehensive Treatment Strategy for
osteoporosis, Parkinson’s
and arm injuries.

Iconic boathouse on Barrington River looking for new owner
I
t's small but cozy, and the
view can't be beat. The historic
"boat house" at 38 Mathewson
Road in Barrington is on the
market. The 600-square-foot
cottage has a great room that sleeps
two, a kitchen and a full bath. It
opens to a deck and a deep-water
dock and sits on 5,376 square feet of
land jutting out onto the Barrington
River. It has direct views of the harbor and Barrington Yacht Club.
The boat house, circa 1870, was
built for Allen C. Mathewson, a
Barrington native who owned a large
jewlery manufacturing company in
Providence. He owned a great deal
of property on the north side of the
Barrington River and kept his sailboat at the boat house (originally
called a 'wharf lot') between business
trips to New York.

In addition to constructing many
homes in the Mathewson Road and
Jenny's Lane neighborhood, Mr.
Mathewson built the stone wall
along the river from the Barrington
Bridge to Melrose Avenue.The bell
at St. John's Episcopal Church was
given in his memory by his daughters after his death in 1887.
The boat house was renovated earlier this year with upgrades to the
electrical, plumbing and interior, and
a new sea wall was installed in 2010.

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
