Costly to-do list faces schools

Roofs, septics and more need replacement

Middle school PCBs aren't the
only problem facing Westport's
aging collection of school buildings.
Mike Duarte, director of maintenance for the town's school's,
recited a litany of maintenancerelated issues when the school
committee met recently.
Septic systems at the high
school, middle school and
Macomber are all at least 40 years
old and on their last legs. The
middle school has not only those
PCBs to worry about but also a 24year-old roof that will need
replacement and heating system
woes — "The poor middle
school," Mr. Duarte said later.

Dominican
family
vacation —
ducky’s
treat
They thought about Italy or
Greece — “places I’ve always
dreamed of going,” says Melissa
Krynicki — but then discovered
the Dominican Republic.
For their Allens Pond Duck Derby dinner for two (in this case
three) anywhere on the planet,
the Krynicki family of Dartmouth
has chosen Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Jim, Melissa and
son Alex will go next spring and
make a week of it.
Last summer, shortly after
learning that their duck “Sunny”
was the Duck Derby winner, Mr.
Krynicki guessed that they might
go “to the Mediterranean somewhere,” a place they’d never been.
“We looked at a lot of places but
thought our son (age 7) might be
too young to enjoy it fully,” Ms.
Krynicki said last week.
“It was a lot of back and forth”,
she said. “But then we decided to
make it a family vacation and the
decision was easier,” — someplace with beaches, swimming
and snorkeling. And it’s not so
many time zones removed.
In the end they relied on the
tropical paradise advice of their
travel agent. “The pictures look
beautiful, very lush,” Ms. Krynicki
said.
This can’t-go-wrong choice was
made possible by Mr. Krynicki’s
boss, Neal Van Sloun, owner of
Sylvan Nursery where Mr. Krynicki has worked 16 years, now as
head of maintenance. Months
before, Mr. Van Sloun had purchased a duck apiece for Sylvan
employees as a holiday gift.
On derby day, Mr. Krynicki was
spending vacation time out clearing a trail in woods near his house
when the messages on his tele-

The high school parking lots are
cracked, water heaters and the fire
alarm systems are will need to be
replaced soon, and a damaged
well isn't producing water as it
once did.
And there are age issues at Westport Elementary and Macomber
schools as well, he said.
Macomber's parking lot is crumbling fast and Westport Elementary's roof is 27 years old — lifespan for such a roof is 30 years.
Those systems "have reached
their limits," Mr. Duarte told the
committee. "We are looking for
trouble" if the maintenance issues
are not tackled soon.
Committee member Michael P.
Sullivan also expressed concern
and asked Mr. Duarte to prepare a
priority list of work that needs
doing.
While it is unlikely that these
projects can be squeezed into the
schools' $300,000 annual maintenance budget, the time may be at
hand to include some of the big
ticket items within the town's capital improvement program, he
suggested. Community Preserva-

tion money might also be sought
to address some of the problems.
"This is a head's up about issues
we are going to face before very
long," Mr. Duarte said, and "not
the sort of things that can be done
within our maintenance budget
… Septic systems, roofs — that's
all bond-worthy stuff." For
instance, it cost in the ballpark of
$1 million to replace the high
school roof several years ago.
"That's our biggest roof but it does
give you an idea of what's
involved."
But "it's not all gloom and
doom," Mr. Duarte said. "We are
open, everything is running, the
kids are learning in well-lit classrooms."
And "energy-wise we do a very
good job." Energy ratings for the
four schools "are very close to
those of new buildings." That has
been accomplished, Mr. Duarte
said, with an aggressive program
to equip schools with energy efficient lights, keeping boilers at at
least 80 percent efficiency, among
other things. At Macomber, systems enable him to monitor systems "even room by room." He
gets notifications at home if a system is awry and can make adjust-

ments remotely.
Westport High School and
Macomber both have relatively
new roofs in excellent condition,
and even the older roofs are
inspected regularly and patched
when need be — "but you can
only keep doing that for so long."
Septic systems are keeping up
for now. "There's nothing flowing
out of them, no neighbors complaining of the odor" but that day
could come if nothing is done.
Maintenance delayed never
saves money, Mr. Duarte said.
"Patchwork costs time and money
and then you still have to do the
replacement anyway."
Westport High School came in
for considerable praise in the
recent NEASC assessment, but the
visiting evaluation team identified
funding for things including facilities as a shortcoming of the town
schools.
"Instructional materials, supplies, staffing and the school's
facilities are not sufficient to fully
implement the school's stated
curriculum and appropriate range
of co-curricular offerings," the
report stated. "80 percent of parents believe that funding is not
sufficient …"

Handy House: Rings may show its age
Expert probes tree rings
in house's old beams
Just how old is the CadmanWhite-Handy House? The Westport Historical Society has enlisted the expertise of Historic Deerfield's architectural conservator
William Flynt to answer that very
question when he performed a
dendrochronology study at the
Hix Bridge Road property.
Dendrochronology is better
known as “tree ring dating.” It is
used to narrow down the age of a
building through the trees’ rings
as well as other variables such as
environment and climate.
During his recent visit to the
Handy House, Mr. Flynt took
samples from timber under the
floorboards and in the ceilings in
all three phases of construction,
as well as in the attic. The rings in
those samples are then compared to a "master chronology"
of previously dated tree rings
from the region.
While the society is aware that
the Handy House was built in
three phases over more than a
century — starting in what is
believed to be 1710 — a vast
amount of research on the historic property hasn’t turned up
more definitive dates for the
additions.
By enlisting the help of experts,
the group hopes to narrow down
the dates of construction to help
the Society interpret as well as
preserve the interior of the
house. The more information
gleaned from studies stimulated
by the grant will help boost the
“visitor experience” when the
Handy House opens to the public
next year.
William Flynt explores beneath old floor boards for the tell-tale tree rings found on old beams.
When the house opens its historic doors in the spring, adult
and children will be invited to get
a first-hand look at the dendrochronology process and
check out the Mr. Flynt’s work is
associated with a $10,000
National Trust for Historic
Preservation grant which the
Society will match to conduct
research and develop programs
to "open windows" into the interior of the house to reveal its evolution.
The dendrochronology infor-
mation from the Handy House,
which will be sent to a central
database, will also provide architectural historians like Mr. Flynt
more information about southeastern New England properties.
Data from the area is sorely lacking, he told the group. Most of
the tree ring data collected from
Massachusetts has come from
historic properties in Boston and
the North Shore.
Handy House.
Lean budget may mean layoffs, pay cuts
Firefighter layoffs and deep cuts to the
stipends for elected town officials are
among the potential impacts of the town's
2015 budget.
That "shoestring" budget plan, along
with an idea of what it means to town
departments, was presented to the Board of
Selectmen last week by Westport Business
Manager Steve Lombardi.
Given revenue limits imposed by Proposition 2 1/2 and the Selectmen's determination to avoid raids on the "free cash"
account for operating expenses, the budget
contains something "for everyone to dislike," Town Administrator Jack Healey
remarked, adding that the belt tightening
cannot be avoided.
Selectmen Chairman Antone Vieira
agreed, calling it a realistic, if difficult, plan.
Town departments had already been put
on notice that this budget has no room for
new hiring or expenditures.
Salaries of all part-time elected officials
will be capped at $100 under the 2015 budget, a move that Mr. Lombard said will save
Westport about $65,000.
If approved as is, the budget would likely
mean the layoffs of two firefighters. The two
had been hired under a federal Staffing for

Published continuously since 1995.
While Selectmen may opt to change the
budget, Mr. Lombard noted that any line
item that is increased must be matched by a
cut somewhere else. To do otherwise would
risk exceeding the Proposition 2 1/2% cap
on the amount that property taxes may be
raised from budget year to year.
Westport has about $750,000 in its "free
cash" reserve account, Mr. Lombard told
the Selectmen, of which he proposed using
$500,000 for capital improvements and the
balance for emergencies.
He again urged Selectmen to stand by
their pledge to avoid spending any of that
money for routine operating expenses.

Complicating the picture are several
unknowns. Westport has not yet been notified about the level of state aid it can expect
for that budget cycle.
And there is the usual uncertainty about
snow removal. The town typically budgets
$70,000 to pay for overtime, private contractors, salt and other storm-related costs,
a figure that it usually overspends on the
order of about threefold.

Middle School puts spotlight on diabetes
BY TRACY PEREIRA
School nurse leader
National Diabetes Month,
observed each year in November, is
a time for communities across the
country and the world to shine a
spotlight on diabetes and encourage action to change the way diabetes is treated.
If left undiagnosed or untreated,
diabetes can lead to serious health
problems such as heart disease,
blindness, kidney disease, stroke,
amputation and even death. With
early diagnosis and treatment,
people with diabetes may prevent
the development of these health
problems.
Westport Middle School nurse
Diane DaPonte is passionate about
supporting all of her students,
especially those with diabetes.
“I wanted to acknowledge Diabetes Awareness Month because
the prevalence of diabetes is so
much greater than what most people probably realize.” Nearly 26
million people in the U.S. have diabetes. Another 79 million have
pre-diabetes.
Diabetes is not something that
impacts those affected occasionally. It is something they live with
24/7 and 365 days a year.
“It is my hope that our awareness day will get students and staff
to understand the challenges that
those with the disease face, and
also evaluate their own lifestyles
and potential for developing Type 2
diabetes.”
“I think [Diabetes] Awareness
month is a good thing and I’m happy we are doing it,” said Dylan Karl,

Bingo before

esus said, “Let the little children come to me and
do not hinder them from coming to me.”
That no-conditions spirit apparently did not
weigh heavily in a recent decision by Westport’s
Our Lady of Grace Church to evict young basketball teams from the church’s parish hall court.
The parish priest said he banned the CYO (Catholic
Youth Organization) teams from further practice there
because he seldom sees their coaches or many of the players at Mass. He said the teams also create considerable
work for the church because chairs and tables must be set
up and taken down often to make way for bingo.
“The purpose of this basketball should be to bring the
children closer to their church … but that doesn’t seem to
be happening. It doesn’t bear fruit for the faith,” he said.
But by giving hoops the heave-ho, he loses any hope he
might have had of drawing these young people into the
fold.
Maybe they weren’t all at Mass (here anyway), but at least
they were coming to Our Lady of Grace Church. While
there they were doing good things — getting exercise,
learning about helping teammates, making friends …
And their presence was an opportunity for this church.

Years ago, those who built a basketball court in the parish
house must have realized this. Thanks to them, the church
now has a facility that young people need yet some would
rather it be used for bingo.
Now would seem a golden teaching moment — about
compromise, forgiveness, welcome.
These children need a place to practice. It’s not too late to

POLICE REPORT
Westport Police: Search turns up nunchuks, knives, sword, drugs
Friday, Nov. 29
Cody Cadieux, 21, of 259D Tickle
Road, Westport, was summonsed to
Fall River District Court after police

Winter and Westport Tire,
like a good marriage!
An expert staff can handle all your auto needs at Westport Tire Center
F
amily owned and operated,
Westport Tire Center is definitely the go to place for all
your car needs as winter approaches.
Everyone knows that this dependable establishment is a must stop
before the snows fall and batteries
fail. Mike Perry, and before him his
Dad Russell, has been making sure
customers are well taken care of for
a lot of years. Russell, a Westport
resident since 1941 – almost a native
some say – began the business with
his wife, Rita, and Mike joined them
in 1983. Such longevity says a lot
about keeping customers coming
back.
While the name may say “Tire
Center,” Westport Tire Center and its
employees go well beyond the
wheels. They are experts at brakes,
shocks, exhausts, four wheel alignments, oil changes and suspension
work. You can be sure your car is
done right. And all work is guaranteed. Because it’s a family place, at
Westport Tire Center you’re dealing
with Mike Perry, the man who owns
the place, not one of the ever-changing managers you might find in the
big box spots. He makes sure you
are a satisfied customer. People
come from all over the area – New
Bedford, Somerset, and further – to
have their needs taken care of.
“We’ve built our reputation over the
years,” says Mike.
Winter weather demands good
tires, more than any other time of
year. Naturally, you’ll find plenty of
tires in stock. Mike Perry carries
many major brands, including
Michelin,
Goodyear,
Cooper,
Firestone,
Continental
and
Yokahama, and many others. All tires
are expertly installed, with balancing
and alignment services available.
And in a challenging economy, it’s
good to know you’ll also find a good
selection of serviceable and dependable used tires for most cars. It’s an
economical way to keep your car on
the road safely.
Auto owners know how important
it is to have a dependable place
where they can trust the work that’s
done on their vehicles. Maybe that’s
why customer satisfaction is such a
big deal at Westport Tire Center.
Need some work done? Talk to Mike.
You’ll be glad you went there when
the roads turn slick.

A
fter 50 years of borrowing
space to host art shows, the
Bristol Art Museum is celebrating the opening of its
new home — the 1867 carriage house at Linden Place.
“The commitment and
perseverance by a team of architects, builders,
project engineer, project supervisor and board
members contributed to the project to convert a historic building into a beautiful home
for the arts and for the residents of the Town of
Bristol and the East Bay region to enjoy, “ said
Patricia Woods, chairwoman of the Bristol Art
Museum board of directors.

museum’s art shows. The museum sponsored
nine exhibits each year, between June and
October, and attracted major artists such as
Ansel Adams, Frank Benson, Robert Motherwell, Maxfield Parish, Norman Rockwell and
local artist Richard Grosvenor.
The museum has also hosted exhibits at the
Rogers Free Library over the years.
The cost to renovate the barn nearly exceeded $1 million, and was funded in part by a
grant from the Champlin Foundation and
donations from the general public. John Lusk
and Greg Speiss were the project architects.
“The design (of the museum) creates a

together to appreciate art and enjoy a cultural

experience,” Ms. Woods said.
The new space features five rental studios
for artists, three of which are currently available; classrooms and a lecture hall. The firstfloor gallery room will be open for art and
gallery talks, as well as special events.
“The main gallery is alive with natural light
from the windows, the maple floors enhance
the interior space, and the preserved arched
glass windows over the doors reminds us of
the building’s past history for us to enjoy in the
future,” she said.
The Bristol Art Museum was initially slated
for a grand opening this past summer, but
delays pushed the opening back to this weekend. There will be a private reception for
members and donors on Saturday, followed by
an open house for the public from 1 to 4 p.m.
on Sunday, Dec. 8.
Then the museum will be open for tours
and viewing of the art exhibit from 1 to 4 p.m.
Thursday to Sunday through Dec. 29. Admission is $2 for non-members. Works of art by
sculptor John Udvardy of Bristol and oil paintings by Penelope Manzella of Barrington will
be on display all month.
Art exhibits already scheduled for 2014
include “Recent Work,” Feb 28 to April 13; “Call
to Rhode Island Artists,” May 2 to July 6; John
Udvardy and Lasse Antonsen, July 18 to Aug.
31; and “Objects for Work, Objects for Play

Mayor Daniel
McKee of Cumberland has
tossed his
proverbial hat in
the ring; the
other contender
is former North
Arlene
Providence
VIOLET
Mayor and present Secretary of
State, Ralph Mollis. The nod for
the democratic standard bearer
for this position should be a nobrainer, but isn’t. Here’s why.
Daniel McKee has a long
record of accomplishment to
show for his six terms as Mayor.
He consolidated the four independent fire districts in Cumberland, and led the charge to create
a joint municipal group health
insurance program that saved
taxpayers millions of dollars in
the ensuing 5 years. His greatest
accomplishment is probably the
establishment of a mayoral academy in the Blackstone Valley. He
had a tough fight on his hands
reshaping how a charter school
should operate. Approximately
two-thirds of the students are
low-income, and half are black or
Latino. Upon entering the school,
5th graders lagged behind their
peers in the public school. After
two years, test scores soared and
the school received a “Commended” ranking, which is
reserved for about the top 10 percent of schools in Rhode Island.
Therein, unfortunately, is the
rub for Mayor McKee’s statewide
office prospects. He encountered
opposition from the American
Federation of Teachers and the
AFL-CIO, which testified against
the legislation to establish mayoral academies with flexibility for
curriculum and staffing. After a
bruising battle, the Mayor succeeded in establishing the school
and it has excelled academically.
Despite an obvious success in
what should be a shared goal of
educating students, Mr. McKee
may very well face backlash from
union members in a primary.
By contrast, during his tenure,
Mayor Ralph Mollis was a darling
to the unions. One needs only to
view Tim White’s investigative
piece on WPRI on the hiring of a
52-year old firefighter. The man
missed almost 50 percent of work
due to alleged disabilities of one
sort or another. Under the union
contract sanctioned by Mollis,
not only was he able to join the

Newport Skating Center opening for the season
The Newport Skating Center’s Grand
Opening and 33rd Annual Tree Lighting will

everyone who comes to celebrate, and
hearing what the children are hoping he’ll
leave them on Christmas morning. Kids can
download a wish list form at skatenewport.com and fill it out at home, or there will
be forms available at the rink.
Holiday carols will be performed by Newport’s Pell Champions Chorus, and complimentary hot cocoa and cookies will be
available.
This season’s first public skate session will
be from 5-5:30 p.m. and picks up after the

and under.

Are you a high school student
with an interest in writing and
producing plays? If so, Trinity
Rep and the Providence Public
Library are teaming up to provide an exciting opportunity for
local students.
This new creative collaboration called “TRRPL PLAY!” has
been developed for high school
students looking for theater performance opportunities, as well
as exploring literature and playwriting. Working alongside Trinity Rep’s professional theater
instructors, students will adapt a
young adult novel into a fullystaged traveling performance
that will then tour local libraries,
culminating in a show at the
Rhode Island State House and a
meeting with the author of the
original novel. The group will
then tour the production to
libraries around Rhode Island.
“Students in TRPPL Play will
be their own adaptors, playwrights and directors,” said Trinity Rep education programs
manager Jordan Butterfield.
“Through this program, they will
analyze text like never before,
and bring characters to life
onstage.”
“TRPPL PLAY!” will be held
from 6-7:30 p.m. Mondays, from
February 3 through June 9. Sessions will be held at the Providence Public Library, 150 Empire
Street in downtown Providence.
Tuition is $250 and registration
is currently open. Contact

‘Inland Fishes of RI’; Fish & Wildlife hatcheries in trouble
f you want to know all about
inland fish species and their
habitats then the new RI
Department of Environmental
Management guide “Inland Fishes
of Rhode Island” is for you. At
$26.75 it makes
the perfect gift
for anglers and
nature enthusiasts.
The book, written by biologist
Alan D. Libby
and illustrated
Capt. Dave
by Robert Jon
MONTI
Golder, is the
first of its kind
for local freshwater fish species. At
287 pages, it contains descriptions
and illustrations of each species of
fish found in Rhode Island’s fresh
waters, information collected during surveys conducted by DEM’s
Division of Fish and Wildlife from
1993 to 2012. Detailed characteristics used to identify each species
are presented, as well as habitat
descriptions, life history information, and distribution maps. Scientific illustrations of each fish in
color and black and white aid with
identification.
“Inland Fishes of Rhode Island”
will be of interest to saltwater
anglers too, as 30 of the 72 fish
species in the book spend a portion of their lives in both fresh and
saltwater.
The most diversity was found in
the Pawcatuck River, which boasted 67 species, followed by the
Blackstone River basin, which had
31 species. The Pawcatuck River’s
greater diversity is the result of it
having fewer dams to obstruct the
movement of fish in and out of the
river.
“Inland Fishes of Rhode Island”
may be purchased in person at the
DEM Office of Boat Registration
and Licensing in Providence by
cash, check or credit card (credit
card requires an extra fee) and at
the Division of Fish and Wildlife
Field Headquarters in West
Kingston, by check or money
order only. The book may also be
purchased through the mail using
the order form located at
http://www.dem.ri.gov/programs/bnatres/fishwild/inlandfishes.htm.
problems associated with sustaining operation of the National Fish
Hatchery System (NFHS) in its
current configuration, and suggests possible changes to how the
system could be managed under
several different scenarios. The
Service will use the analysis to
engage stakeholders in a discussion of the future of the NFHS.

Where’s the bite
Be a know-it-all: a new book
titled “Inland Fishes of Rhode
Island,” published by DEM,
reviews 72 different fish species
and their habitats, of which 30 of
the species spend a portion of
their lives in both fresh and saltwater.
US Fish & Wildlife
hatcheries in trouble
In a report issued earlier this
month, the U.S. Fish & Wildlife
Service warned that “Closures (of
national fish hatcheries) may be
necessary in FY 2015 given fiscal
uncertainly and growing operations costs.” Dan Ashe, service
director, said the National Fish
Hatchery System: Strategic Hatchery and Workforce Planning
Report, “sounds the alarm on a
hatchery system unable to meet
its mission responsibilities in the
current budget climate.” However,
the Fish & Wildlife Service is taking
measures to ensure hatcheries
remain open for the balance of FY
2014.
The Workforce Planning Report
outlines the current programs and
Roger Simpson of the Frances
Fleet said, “Wednesday found the
sea bass to be aggressive with a
full boat limit of the black beauties up to 4 pounds, and a few
anglers throwing back 20 to 30
keepers apiece after limiting out.
Plenty of scup as well…Some nice
size green cod to nearly 20 lbs as
well with two anglers sharing hi
hook honors of 4 nice cod
apiece.”
Simpson, commenting on the
cod bite said, “We strongly recommend that anglers swing for
the sky whenever they suspect
something is up. There are some
nice cod starting to show up but
the fish just all too often do not
bite (aggressively)… if you are
waiting for that big bite from a
big cod you may be waiting for a

very long time, almost all of the
big cod in the 25 to just over 40
lb range I have caught over the
years I have felt either a soft slow
pull, no bite per se, or the feeling
as though my sinker rolled off a
rock.”
Tautog fishing continues to be
strong with fish being caught in
deeper water. Bruce Fournier
fished with his brother and
nephew off Newport on Saturday,
reporting that “(We) did very
well… including a couple of 8.5
pound fish. All fish were in 80-90
feet of water on green crabs.”
John Littlefield of Archie’s Bait &
Tackle in East Providence said,
“The short to keeper ratio is getting better but the fishing has
been on and off. One customer
fished the Beavertail area and
caught five keepers, the next day
he went back and caught all
shorts. The same thing is happening in Narragansett Bay at
Conimicut Light, the Wharf Tavern and the bridges in Barrington.”
Anglers continue to catch
striped bass along the coastal
shore and in winter holdover
spots. Tommy Pelto of Tiverton
said, “There’s still some consistent
striper action along the south
shore. Birds were working and
fish were breaking this morning
(Saturday).” Dave Pickering, noted local angler and author/lecturer, said anglers are turning their
attention to “Places like the CT
rivers, the backwater ponds of
the south shore in RI and rivers of
upper Narragansett Bay. These
are the places that will produce
all winter long if you want to continue catching stripers. The lures
and plugs to use for winter
holdovers are not complicated…
For the most part, this is a jigging
game on light tackle. Work the
bottom slowly because that’s
where the fish are holding.”
Dave Pickering said, “Today
(Wednesday), I went out with little expectations of catching anything on this cold day…Well, it
turned out to be a decent outing
as I landed three commons
(carp), all around 10 pounds. I
got them all on Pecaviva sweet
corn fished ahead of a method
ball. All of the fish also came in
the early afternoon sun when
things had warmed up a bit.” Visit
Dave’s blog at www.ricarpfishing.blogspot.com .

fishing and shell fishing on
Narragansett Bay for over 40
years. He holds a captain’s

VIOLET: McKee’s good ethics
may cost him the primary
From Page 1
Meet Jersey
Jersey is a Pit/Lab mix. He is three or four years old. Jersey has been living at the Warren animal shelter for around two years now and is in desperate need of a home. All of Jersey’s shelter friends have
found their forever homes and have left him — please help him find his. Please come to the shelter at
80 Wood St. in Warren and meet Jersey or call 401/245-4569 to set up a meet and greet.
department at age 52 but also, if
he served one day as an acting
Lieutenant, he could retire at that
pay. That’s precisely what he did a
couple of days after filling in once
as a Lieutenant. He apparently reinjured himself picking up a small
bag, so his pension is tax-free.
The entire fire department is
under a cloud. The fire chief
retired with a severance package
that included $104,000 in socalled unused sick and vacation
days. He had to return more than
$50,000 based on a subsequent
review by the Mayor Lombardi
administration, since he was not
entitled to the money he claimed.
A battalion chief also paid himself overtime for work he didn’t
perform. The underlying contracts that allowed such tomfoolery were initiated during the Mol-
lis administration. Another
municipal worker who never
fought a fire was entitled to a firefighter’s pension because of the
way the contract was written.
Mollis’ own behavior hasn’t
been exemplary. From attending
a reputed mob funeral, to keeping campaign contributions from
three former North Providence
councilmen serving time for
extortion and bribery, and paying
a $3000 ethics fine for soliciting
donations from his employees, he
isn’t the sharpest knife in the
drawer when it comes to ethics.
Nonetheless, it is precisely
because of these exorbitant
union contracts — and the union
vote — that gives Mr. Mollis an
edge going into the primary. So,
Mr. McKee’s ethics, which as of
this writing are unassailable, may
cost him the race because of the
ethically challenged give-away
record of Mr. Mollis.

to the classic musical.
The production will star Steven Moyer as Captain
von Trapp, and country singer Carrie Underwood
as Maria von Trapp.
Audiences should not expect a “remake” of the
film starring Julie Andrews. According to NBC, this
telling will remain much more true to the original
Rodgers and Hammerstein play.
TRASH OR TREASURE
Victorian Jardiniéres: functional art
Q. I have this nice old pot that I
am hoping you could tell something about.
A. Your “jardinière” or “garden
pot” was made by Maddock Pottery Company of Trenton, New
Jersey. Your pot
dates to the early
1900’s — the
Victorian period.
Victorian interiors often included exotic plants
as décor. Most
Karen
were
WATERMAN popular
ferns and
palms, partly because of the lack
of light these varieties could withstand. Dark stained furniture and
architectural moldings with
heavy drapes were the rage at the
time. A large, ceramic jardinière
on a plant stand would add the
final touch to decorating a room
from this period.
Something for
all of your
Holiday needs!
Yours unfortunately is not in
the best condition. The gold has
worn and closer inspection of
your photographs show some
cracks. Not to worry, most of its
imperfections will not be noticed
with a plant in it. There are many
examples of this type of pottery
for sale. Your pot in its current
condition would sell for under
$50.

STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE
No place for boo birds
T
his fall I was in Milwaukee for a business trip
and spotted Daniel Bard
walking through the hotel lobby.
When I said his name, he looked
up, obviously surprised that he
would be recognized – and likely
horrified that a
middle-aged
woman was so
eager to meet
him. For those
that don’t
remember him,
Daniel Bard was
a top Red Sox
Cara
CROMWELL pitching
prospect – and
lights-out pitcher – until he and
the rest of the team imploded in
September of 2011. In 2012 they
tried to make him into a starter
and he spent much of 2013 in
Portland, presumably trying to
get his groove back. I told him I
was a Red Sox fan and he looked
at the carpet, saying that he didn’t
play for them anymore.
Bard seemed surprised that I
knew he’s just been picked up by
Theo Epstein and the Cubs (and
in Milwaukee for the game
against the Brewers) and perked
up saying he was glad that Theo
picked him up. We had a short
conversation about his time with
the Sox – I thanked him for his
many good innings and he was
somewhat apologetic about his
struggles. I was struck by how
young he seemed and how he
was clearly embarrassed by his
poor performance with the Red
Sox. He was not the arrogant and
cocky professional baseball player I imagined from TV. He’s just a
nice kid trying to pitch like he
knows he can. How hurt he
would be to know that someone
started a “Daniel Bard Sucks”
message board online.
I thought of Daniel Bard last
week when I read about the controversy surrounding John
DePetro calling union protesters
“wh__res.” While Mr. DePetro certainly has a right to use whatever
language he’d like — and clearly
his employer, WPRO, continues to
employ him so they must
approve of his behavior — I think
that kind of public name-calling
is intolerable in a civilized society.
Whether you agree with the antipension reform union protesters
(and I do not) calling them
obscene names does not further
the debate. It just makes politics
more divisive and more unpleasant.
Sadly this kind of name-calling,
and the labeling that follows, is
common in politics and accomplishes nothing. Whether it’s call-
ing all Republicans “right wing
extremists” (a particularly
humorous label in Rhode Island
where many Republicans are to
the left of leading Democrats on
social issues), or hearing those
same anti-pension reform union
protesters yell at Treasurer Gina
Raimondo, name-calling is literally a waste of breath. We’ve
watched the extreme partisanship in Washington lead to a
sequester and a government
shutdown. It’s time to turn the
page, stop the name-calling and
figure out what we can do across
party lines and in spite of ideological differences.
And next time you go to a baseball game and a player on your
team makes an error or gives up a
grand slam, try not to boo or yell
“you s_ck!” Unless of course,
you’re a Yankees fan.

REVIEW
Retro gaming cases bring a touch of
nostalgia to your iPhone
BY JASON CALVERT
ocketcases has recently
started selling a line of
‘Retro Gamer’ cases for
iPhone (4 thru 5S) which are
sure to bring back some old
memories.
I was a child of the 80s and the
NES was the first gaming system
I had. I spent so many days and
nights with family and friends
playing some of the most iconic
games. Seeing the Controller
case brings back memories of
playing the original Zelda with
my cousins in Maine, and playing Duckhunt for the first time
that wintery Christmas morning
when I was seven years old. G
Boy also has a similar effect on
me with all those great games
that you could play where ever
you went.
G Boy and Controller are two
retro cases designed to protect
that beloved mobile device from
scratches and small falls. I‚Äôve
seen similar ‘gaming’ cases out
there that are just poorly made
and quickly deteriorate after a
short time of use. But not with
these cases. Each case is made
from either a hard silicone or
soft plastic material that fits perfectly to your device. They are
both crafted very well and,
thankfully, hold up very well in
small falls and slides.
The G Boy case is modeled

after everyones favorite original
handheld, the Nintendo Gameboy. This case is made of a soft
silicone material that fits snuggly over your device. The case is
constructed really well and
come in a few different colors
which is really nice. I have the
original color, white, and really
like that the buttons are raised.
It feels like you have a Gameboy
in your hand. You can tell that
Rocketcases spent some time to
make sure the final piece was
polished. Seeing G Boy on my
iPhone makes me remember
playing Doctor Mario over and
over when I was a kid.
The Controller case looks like
the original NES controller. Its
constructed of a hard plastic
with a detailed image of the NES
controller under clear plastic. I
think this case could have been
improved with raised and
recessed surfaces like the G Boy
case but it is still really cool. I
prefer the feel of a hard case and

am using Controller for my
iPhone 4. Like the G Boy, the
case has that polished feel to it.
Rocketcases made a smart
move in creating retro gaming
cases. There are millions of 80s
gamers out there like me which
these cases speak too. It may
sound crazy of me talking about
these memories of gaming 20
years ago but, as I get older,
childhood memories are becoming more important. And we will
pay to have a piece of our childhood.
For just $15 bucks, you get a
quality case and a flood of great
memories. You can’t go wrong.

probably even
more tempted
than usual to

You are not

Emily
DELCONTE have shown
that the average
American orders takeout 3 times
a week — that’s 156 meals per

Ordering takeout often can
have a negative impact on your
overall health; specifically your
weight, blood sugar levels and
heart health. Restaurant meals
may contain up to 3 times the
calories you need in one meal.
Also, they typically have higher
fat and sodium levels compared
to home-cooked meals. When
you do get takeout, be smart
and check out your favorite
spots online to see if they provide nutrition information so
you can make informed choices.

Points of
Interest
Living in Southern New
England allows us to enjoy the
many beautiful aspects of our
region, as the Ocean State and
the Cape offer many options for
outdoor exercise. One of the
sayings I have heard frequently
in New England is, “If you don’t
like the weather, just wait a
minute.” While it seems that
our weather can change quickly, we know our winters can still
be cold and snowy. So, how do
we safely maintain our outdoor
exercise routine? Here are a few
tips to consider.
Safety First!
While not for everyone, outdoor exercise will still pull
many of us off the treadmills
and elipticals. However, if you
have certain conditions, such
as asthma, heart problems or
Reynaud’s disease, you should
check with your doctor before
beginning you regimen.
Layering it on!
Dress in layers that you can
remove as soon as you start to
sweat and then put back on as
needed. First, put on a thin
layer of synthetic material, such
as polypropylene, which draws
sweat away from your body.
Avoid cotton, which stays wet
next to your skin. Next, add a
layer of fleece or wool for insulation. Top this with a waterproof, breathable outer layer.
Reach for the mittens!
When it's cold, blood flow is
concentrated on your body's
core, leaving your hands and
feet vulnerable to frostbite.
Unlike gloves, wearing mittens
allows your body's warmth to
be shared. Hand warmer packets can be slipped into the mittens to further keep hands
warm.
Cover your head, face and
neck!
If you have been to most of
our clinics, you may have
noticed there is a common
theme around the top of many
of our male PT’s heads. With
not much covering up there for
warmth, we are very aware that
we loose heat through our
heads. Coverage up there is
very important! When weather
is very severe, don’t forget to
cover the neck and face as well.
A hooded mask that covers the
head and neck are available in
many outdoor stores and offer
great protection.
Shoes and socks!
Considering buying exercise
shoes a half-size or one size
larger than usual to allow for
thick thermal socks or an extra
pair of regular socks. Several
companies make waterproof
shoes that will also block the
wind. Trail shoes are made of a
thicker fabric and designed for
slush and trails with a "snow
tire tread". Some companies
also offer socks made of a
micro-fabric that assist in
retaining warmth, wicking
moisture and are lightweight.
Audubon Society’s
Environmental Education Center
This natural history museum and
aquarium is situated on a 28-acre
wildlife refuge with walking trails and
quarter-mile boardwalk. In the center,
visitors can look inside a 33-foot lifesized Right Whale, discover life in a tide
pool, observe Narragansett Bay’s
marine life, see a rare blue lobster and
even explore a cornfield at night.
WHERE: 1401 Hope St. (Route 114), Bristol.
WHEN: 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Monday to Saturday, noon-
5 p.m. Sunday.

SPONSORED BY OLYMPIC PHYSICAL THERAPY
Warm-up before heading
outside!
In past newsletters, we have
discussed the importance of a
proper, dynamic warm-up.
Warm-ups are important any
time of year, but even more so
in winter when pulled muscles
can be a problem without an
appropriate warm-up. Contact
a physical therapist from
Olympic PT with questions
about appropriate warm-ups
for your activities.
Hydration
Hydration is just as important in winter as it is in summer. Remember your body
loses fluids via sweating.
Don’t go for the burn!
Don’t forget the sunscreen!
We all know that we need to
liberally apply the sunscreen in
the summer. However, sunlight reflection from the snow
and the road surface can lead
to glare and even sunburn.
Make sure you use sunscreen
and don’t forget to apply lip
balm.
Head into the wind!
If possible, do the second
half of your workout with the
wind at your back. This way,
you're less likely to get chilled,
especially if you've worked up
a sweat. This may take some
planning of your exercise route
before you head out the door.
Play it smart!
Exercising when it's cold and
raining can make you more
vulnerable to the cold. If you
get soaked, you may not be
able to keep your core body
temperature high enough, and
layering won't help if your
clothes are wet. If it's extremely
cold, you may need to take
your exercise indoors or skip it
for a day or two. Wind chill
extremes can make exercising
outdoors unsafe even if you
dress warmly. The wind can
penetrate your clothes and
remove the insulating layer of
warm air that surrounds your
body, and any exposed skin is
vulnerable to frostbite. If the
temperature dips well below 0
F (-17.8 C) or the wind chill is
extreme, consider taking a
break or choosing an indoor
activity instead, or take extra
precautions if you choose to
exercise outdoors anyway.
OPT knows the importance
of exercise and that many of
you will continue to exercise
outdoors throughout the winter. The recommendations
above will help you remain safe
and meet your fitness goals!

MEET Alyson Roslonek: FORMER TEACHER WITH
HOPES OF BEING A HOUSEHOLD NAME
A
BY JOAN D. WARREN
lyson Roslonek is a
full-time agent with
the Mello Group
who used to be a
teacher. The mother
of three children, Katie, Elisabeth
and Matthew, she lives in
Rumford with her family and husband, Ryan. Alyson is a graduate
of Rhode Island College and
taught elementary school before
starting a family. She is a member
of the National Board of Realtors,
Greater Providence Board of
Realtors and the East Bay
Chamber of Commerce.
WHY BECOME A REALTOR? "I
became interested in real estate
when my husband and I sold our
first and second homes. I worked
hard to stage and market the properties and enjoyed meeting everyone who came to see it. (We sold
them both quickly and for over
asking!) So, when I was ready to
return to the workforce but looking for something more flexible,
real estate seemed like a perfect
fit! Since the very beginning I
have been blessed with a successful career and adore my team at
The Mello Group."
LAST MOVIE WITH THE KIDS?
"The last movie I saw with the
kids was Disney’s 'Planes.' I loved
the simple positive message."
WHAT DO YOU LOVE THE
MOST AND THE LEAST ABOUT
YOUR NEW CAREER? "One of
the things I enjoy most is utilizing
my creativity during staging and
marketing. I like to think outside
of the box and showcase the
unique beauty that every home
has to offer, while marketing it to
as many people as possible. I also
love the adventure of real estate
— no two days are ever the same!
I get to meet great people, tour
beautiful homes and be out in the
community instead of always sitting behind a desk!
"Admittedly, there is a challenging side to the adventure. My
work schedule is unpredictable,
and my family often has to pitch
in and help out. Without the help
of my husband and parents, I
couldn’t be the reliable realtor that
my clients have come to depend
on."
BEST CULINARY CREATION?
"I make a mean pecan pie and
always include it in my
Thanksgiving and Christmas
menus."
WITH THREE KIDS YOU MUST
HAVE A PET OR TWO? "Charlie,
our friendly chocolate lab, is an
important part of the family. He
loves to fetch, swim, hike and
play soccer."
Alyson Roslonek
The Mello Group
401-529-7030
PERFECT DAY OFF: "My perfect day off would include sleeping late, enjoying some quiet time
and then heading out with my
family to enjoy the entire day
together. My husband, Ryan, and
my children, Katie, 13, Elisabeth,
10 and Matthew, 5, are always up
River’s Edge
BEACH, MOUNTAIN OR LAKESIDE? "BEACH! My family and I
love the ocean, we like to ride the
waves, build sandcastles and relax
in the sun!"
for an adventure!"
BEST COFFEE AND DINNER
IN RUMFORD? "The best coffee
can be found at Seven Stars in
Rumford, which is conveniently
located next to my favorite place
for an amazing meal, Avenue N."
PLANS FOR THE FUTURE IN
REAL ESTATE? "I plan to continue working hard, take great care
of my clients and watch my business grow. I hope to one day
become a household name in my
community!"

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
