Common ground the goal for community garden
Some neighbors shared
concerns for
community garden plan
BY JOSH BICKFORD
[email protected]
How much angst could someone feel toward a community garden?
How upset could someone be
while imagining hearty-looking
tomato plants that stand hiphigh and trellises of string beans
and dark, rich soil covered with
thick green cucumbers? Could
anyone really feel threatened by
visions of fresh fruits and vegeta-
bles?
Sure they could.
On Pine Top Road, a group of
residents seethed when they
thought of the town’s plans to
build a community garden on the
neighboring Vitullo property.
It was not so much the tomatoes or beets or watermelons that
made them angry. That they
could live with. After all, the Vitullo property had been home to a
farm for generations.
No, it was the location of a
parking lot that irked them. That,
and the apparent attitude taken
See COMMUNITY GARDEN Page 8
The town-owned Vitullo property is slated to become a community
garden open to residents.
Parade is Monday
The annual Memorial Day Parade
steps off at 9:30 a.m. on May 26

A plan to bring all-day kindergarten to Barrington schools
moved one step closer to reality
last week.
At a meeting on Tuesday night,
May 13, school officials and members of the town’s committee on
appropriations reached a compromise regarding the district’s
proposed budget.
The compromise, said school
officials, secures the funding necessary to build a new all-day
kindergarten program in local
schools. (Barrington currently
offers half-day kindergarten.)
“Last year we set a goal of establishing an all-day kindergarten
program. With the support of the
school committee and the committee on appropriations, we’re
almost there,” said Barrington
Superintendent
of
Schools
Michael Messore. “We’re one step
away.”
Mr. Messore is referring to the
May 28 financial town meeting
where voters will have the final
say on the school department and
municipal government proposed
budgets. Should the budgets be
approved without significant
changes, school officials will
begin the process of hiring new
kindergarten teachers and altering the facilities to accommodate
the program.
“It will be a busy summer,” Mr.
Messore said.

Blue Angels
lift local boy’s spirits
On Friday, May 16, patients at Hasbro
Children’s Hospital, including Josh
Guertler of Barrington (shown), received
the treat of a lifetime when Blue Angels
pilots visited the hospital in full aviation
gear to help lift the spirits of children
dealing with challenging medical conditions. The visit was in advance of The
Blue Angels’ performance at the Rhode
Island Air Show. Here, Josh listens
intently as Mark DeBuse of The Blue
Angels explains some of the squadron’s
flying stunts. “Visits like this are the best
part of my job,” said Lt. Commander
DeBuse, MD, U.S. Navy Flight Surgeon
and Blue Angels pilot. “It’s an honor to
have an opportunity to interact with
children who don’t feel well and do our
small part to brighten their day and put
a smile on their faces.”

ranks in
top five for
safest towns
Online real estate
brokerage releases
rankings
Movoto, an online real estate
brokerage based in Calif., recently
released its rankings for the safest
places to live in Rhode Island, and
ranked Barrington fifth safest
overall.
The ranks were reportedly
based on the most recent FBI
crime statistics, “specifically looking at murder, violent crimes,
property crimes, and total crimes
per 100,000.”
Barrington ranked behind
Richmond, Scituate, Little Compton and East Greenwich.
“While some of the scores for
fifth place Barrington are a little
higher than our top four, the
crime numbers for this town are
still very low,” stated the article on
Movoto.com. “There were no
murders reported, 18 robberies
per 100,000 people, and six
assaults per 100,000 people. The
town also reported only 184 robberies per 100,000, which was less
than most others in the top 10.
Barrington is ranked one of the
safest towns to live in throughout
all of Rhode Island.
“As far as rankings, Barrington
ranked sixth lowest for violent
crime, property crime, and total
crime. All that means that the
chance of being a victim of a
crime in this was only 1 in 88. Residents there can breathe easy
knowing that they live in one of
the safest towns in the state.”
Which town is safest?
Following are the top 10 safest
towns to live in for Rhode Island,
according to Movoto:
1. Richmond
2. Scituate
3. Little Compton
4. East Greenwich
5. Barrington
6. Glocester
7. Portsmouth
8. South Kingstown
9. North Kingstown

sitting at tables set in front of the school during the annual One Amazing Night celebration on Thursday, May 15.
The chorus also performed Michael Jackson’s “Man in the Mirror”
and other selections in the auditorium.

High school
launches
‘Pathways to
the Future’
More than 50 professions
to be represented at
career day
On Thursday, May 22, Barrington High School’s advisory program will sponsor the first ever
“Pathways to Your Future” career
day.
The event will introduce high
school students to potential
careers by bringing community
members into the school to discuss their jobs, skills, education
and training. The goal is to create a critical link between the
classroom and the workplace by
allowing students to explore various career options so that they
can make informed educational
and career choices.
With more than 50 professions
represented, including careers in
the military and service industries, there will be something of
interest for everyone. All grade
levels will be invited to attend.
BHS juniors will get a chance
to hear directly from a local college professor about expectations for freshman college students. This year’s graduating
seniors can meet with college
students who have just completed their first year to hear about
their experiences, successes and
challenges.
The BHS Advisory Board will
be looking for ways to build on
this career day in the future.
Members of the community are
encouraged to participate.

BAY Team offering
help to local parents
Family Time cards target
parents of preschoolers
The BAY Team’s Parenting Committee has created another new
tool for parents.
This time the prevention coalition is taking a new approach to
prevention — targeting parents of
preschool children with a program called, Family Time.
Family Time is a set of five cards
designed to build the skills “kids
need to grow up safe and healthy
before children head to school
and start making more decisions
on their own,” stated a recent
press release. “Each year the
health and safety risks they face
multiply — including opportunities to use alcohol or other drugs.”
Members of the BAY Team’s Parenting Committee spent the past
few months researching and
developing this new resource for
parents of younger children.
Family Time is a home-based
prevention program, which is
designed to help parents nurture:
Problem-solving skills; decision-
making skills; healthy ways to deal
with stress; setting limits; positive
risk-taking; and forming good
habits.
“We think of Family Time as getting a huge head-start on keeping
your kids safe in the not-so-distant future,” said Dr. Kristen Westmoreland, BAY Team program
manager.
Preschools participating in the
program include Tot’s Cooperative, Wee Care, Barrington Early
Learning Center, Early Learning
Center of RI, Red Brick Preschool,
and Kidsquarters.
Interested residents can also
contact BAY Team to receive a
complimentary copy of the program.
If your preschool is not participating, please contact the BAY
Team office at [email protected] to receive a complimentary copy.
“As with all our programs, we
have built in an evaluation. We ask
all participants to fill in the
enclosed survey and mail to the
BAY Team,” said Dr. Westmoreland.
BHS Arts Night is May 22
Event will feature visual
arts, design,
woodworking and more
Barrington High School Arts
Night will be held on Thursday,
May 22, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. at
the school.
The annual event will feature
students’ works in the visual arts,
design, architecture and woodworking programs. The pieces will
be displayed inside the small
gymnasium at the high school, as
well as in the art classrooms, hallways and in the display cases. The
high school’s art club members
will also be creating tape murals
in the hallways throughout the
night.
“It’s really a fabulous showcase
of student achievements from this
school year,” wrote Lauren Tucciarone, co-chairwoman for the
high school art department.
Arts Night is free and open to
the public.

EDITORIAL
Parade will bring
our town together
T
here may be no better way to celebrate community than with a parade.
Well, a chicken barbecue isn’t bad but with a
town this size — more than 16,000 people — it
would be a tall order to find a space large
enough to seat everyone. (Not to mention that finding a
menu to suit everyone’s tastes would be nearly impossible.)
A close second has got to be a parade, and Barrington’s
Memorial Day march is one of the best around.
Last year, perfect weather shined down upon the procession, and thousands of residents took a break from their
yard work and lined up their lawn chairs along the route.
The bands played.
The sirens blared.
The crowds cheered.
Everywhere you turned, people were celebrating their
town. Local youth sports leagues, civic groups, elected officials and civil servants —
all neighbors and friends

able housing. Just a
chance to celebrate our
town and our residents.
This year’s parade will step off on Monday morning —
marchers will form up at the intersection of Upland Way
and Lincoln Avenue at about 9 a.m., and start the walk at
9:30.
The procession will include four divisions and dozens of
different groups, everything from the Barrington Police and
Fire Departments to Barrington Post No. 8 American
Legion to the Barrington Garden Club, Little League, Boy
Scouts and Girl Scouts and school bands. There’s a very
good chance you will spot a neighbor or co-worker marching along the roadway.
Too often issues surface that divide our town, but Monday’s parade promises an opportunity to forget our differences (if only for a little while) and embrace our common
bond — our community.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
Will RI continue its death spiral?
To the editor:
I was born in 1960 in a small
house on the dead-end side of
Judson Street. Like many, my
father worked in a mill in Fall River. He worked his way up to master finisher then to foreman of the
finishing deptartment. As his
income grew they saved enough
money to put a down payment on
a house. So in 1964 we moved to
our new home in Island Park,
Portsmouth.
Island Park was for the most
part a summer community with
lots of cottages scattered around
the beach area. There was and still
is a beach that was the center of
attraction. It was my mom’s childhood home and she loved it. Her
father owner several businesses
that catered to the beach traffic.
Life was good in Rhode Island
with jobs for anyone willing to
work. I remember my mom working at Transcom assembling electronics. My mom’s friends worked
in Bristol at the Converse factory.
Kaiser Aluminum employed hundreds and generated other jobs
around the area. One of my mom’s
friends worked at American
Tourister and would get free luggage that they gave as Christmas
presents.
Something happened in Rhode
Island and across our nation.
Some say it started with Nixon
and has grown to what we have
today.
People work harder than ever
and just can’t seem to get ahead.
The American dream seems to
have became very hard to grab
and hold on to. People are losing
their jobs and homes and relying
on welfare to feed themselves and
their families. Manufacturing
went south of the border, then
overseas. Our national debt grew
then grew again each year — now
$17.5 trillion.
Our government has grown tenfold as the job market shrinks
leaving only service jobs for many
to fight for. There are many reasons why America has lost its
competitive edge. The number
one reason is an out-of-control
government and a congress full of
hands-out politicians. Greed and
corruption in our legislature was
no better as we see with Rhode
Island holding the bag on billions
of unfunded pension debt along
with the highest unemployment
rate in the nation.
We’ve seen politicians and
judges go to jail, and fraud in our
state that has caused much of our
problems. High state and local
taxes keep businesses away. Is
there a light at the end of the tunnel or will Rhode Island continue
in its death spiral?
With the Speaker of the House
resigning, new leadership has
been chosen. My first instinct is to
say “same -old same-old” while I
really hope this will be the turning
point.
I have high hopes for the new
team and will support them on
their quest to turn our state
around. The job is monumental
because of the amount of past
abuse. Chipping away at the problems will take time but must be
done if we are going to survive as a
state where people want to live
and raise their families. So many
have left for greener pastures.
Wouldn’t it be nice to see the
grand kids more often than only
on holidays. Or to have a job that
pays enough that you only have to
work a 40-hour week.
God Bless Rhode Island and
send us on a course for better
times.
Joseph R. Sousa
Tiverton
This legislation is worthy of our support
To the editor:
Local legislation House Bill 7904
and Senate Bill 2952 is worthy of
our support.
Once again, the Rhode Island
General Assembly is approaching
a decision that could open new
opportunities for economic, environmental and civic growth —
and we recognize how important
these areas are in our lives together here at home.
Voting is at times just too simple
— or at least too simplistic. When
legislation goes to referendum
vote, formal policy makers cringe.
How could the public possibly
know more about the intentions
and the implication of proposed

Smelling the roses and staring at worms
H
ave you ever seen the
ground move?
Have you ever stood dead still
in the middle of your back yard
on a warm spring night and
stared so hard at the ground
underfoot that you could actually
see it move?
I have, but it was
only because my
silly dog who
was supposed to
be taking her last
pee before bed
was acting so
strange that I
Josh
BICKFORD thought there
must be something wrong with the ground.
A few feet outside the back
door, the dog froze, unable or
unwilling to move any farther. I
called her deeper into the yard
and gave her a nice high-pitched
whistle that made her lift her ears
a bit.
Finally she picked up a back
foot and stood there balancing on
three legs and appearing in no
hurry to place the fourth back on
solid ground.
What in the heck is this dog
doing? I thought to myself, and
leaned over to pick her up. That
was when I saw it. That was when
I saw the ground come alive.
I stood still and stared at the
lawn move and glisten as hundreds or maybe even thousands
of thick red-brown worms slid
slowly across the blades of grass.
For minutes I stood there
ogling. It was so long, in fact, that
I half-expected my wife to open
the back door to make sure the
dog and I had not fallen into
some huge sinkhole behind the
shed.
It is not often these days that I
take the time to watch the ground
move or the clouds shift or the
waves break. It is not often that I
take time to watch what is happening around me in the real
world — not with all of life’s distractions screaming at me in full
volume.
It is not often enough that I
pause to soak it all up ... the rolls
of thunder from a passing storm
or the shrill chirp of a hunting
osprey or the cool wind or warm
sun or sprinkles of rain against
my skin.
Most days I move too fast to
notice much of anything.
That is not the case with my
son, at least not when it comes to
inchworms. The boy is keenly
aware that something special is
about to happen once the buds
on the maple trees begin to
sprout leaves. Just a few days later
he begins his search for the tiny
green worms.
He finds them — at first they
are microscopic — hiding inside
the rolled up edges of leaves.
Before long they have grown, and
that is when the boy hurries to
collect them.
He puts them inside old jelly
jars and Dixie cups and whatever
else he can scrounge — an empty
raisin box or sandwich bag or just
the pockets of his pants.
His focus is astonishing.
At the bus stop he searches the
low-hanging branches of the
maples and grows oblivious to
the passing cars and their radios,
the waving neighbors headed to
work, to the sirens and horns and
squealing brakes.
Around him, man’s world is
doing its best to distract, but he is
not interested.
At just 7, he already understands that the ground is moving
and the leaves are alive.

Achieving Eagle rank
The following Barrington residents earned their Eagle Scout
rank at a ceremony this week:
Ryan J. Jerue
Jacob L. Ray
John R. Tortolani
Jacob W. Gorton
Owen A. Jackson
Theodore M. Kurkoski
Matthew R. Perugini
Joseph C. Regan

Charles C. Winner
will be matched and seated with
an adult sponsor. The scouts will
have the opportunity to meet fellow Eagles and individuals who
work in local industry or business.
“Becoming an Eagle Scout is a
significant moment in a young
man’s life,” said John Mosby,
scout executive, of the Narragansett Council, Boy Scouts of
America. “It symbolizes a culmination of years of commitment
and dedication.”
Only 4 percent of scouts across
the nation attain Eagle status
each year. To become an Eagle,
the scouts must complete the
five prior ranks of Tenderfoot,
Second Class, First Class, Star,
and Life.
They have also earned a
required minimum of 21 merit
badges and have created and
managed a service project.
“Most projects consist of more
than 100 hours of work,” said Mr.
Mosby. “They entail planning
and developing a significant
activity to help a community,
religious center, or school. Projects range from organizing a
blood drive to building a community walking trail.
“We’re proud of what these
scouts were able to achieve, and
their communities should be
proud of them as well.”

our caring and socially concerned
citizens.
Taking the time to seriously
consider complex legislation isn’t
easy, and if legislators feel that
“most” of their voting constituents
won’t really care one way or the
other, busy and often underappreciated legislators will find it
safer to avoid doing anything new
than it will be to take new steps
into an unfamiliar — even if hopeful — future.
We have to assure our legislators
that it is safe to act on legislation
that links economic growth with
environmental performance and
with increased public participation. In fact, we have little to hope
for if they do not.

COMMUNITY GARDEN: ‘We want to make it the best for everyone’
From Page 1
by the community garden organizing committee that made this
project seem like a done deal, said
John Persinos.
“They acted like it was a fait
accompli,” Mr. Persinos said.
“That’s what really stuck in our
craw.”
That is what happened at a
recent community garden meeting, said Mr. Persinos.
According to Mr. Persinos, some
members of the garden committee
opened a recent meeting with a
certain air about them. That
changed, however, once abutters
to the Vitullo property started talking.
The residents spoke about their
concerns with a public parking lot
located so close to their homes.
They pointed to a history of problems the town has experienced
with the nearby bird sanctuaries on
Route 114 — the areas have been
known as meeting spots for sexual
encounters.
“We’re used to leaving our doors
unlocked around here,” Mr. Persinos said. “This could increase burglary rates.”
But as Pine Top Road residents
began digging in their heels and
readying for a fight — two lawyers
who live in that neighborhood had
promised to offer their services free
of charge in a potential lawsuit
against the town — the garden
organizers surprised them.
“They quickly adapted when
they saw where the crowd’s mood
was going,” Mr. Persinos said.
“They said ‘OK, maybe we can
move the parking lot over here.’
They started to get creative.”
Cyndee Fuller, the chairwoman
of the town’s conservation commission and a member of the community garden committee, said her
group was very receptive to the
neighbors’ concerns.
“The people who live next to it
need to be happy,” she said. “I think
we had a lot of support for the concept, but the details were problematic.”
Ms. Fuller said the initial proposed location of the parking lot
had more to do with an old barn
that was situated at the eastern
edge of the land. The barn was in
rough shape — the back half of it
had collapsed and the front was
not much better — and needed to
be demolished. The garden committee proposed removing the
barn and building a parking lot in
the same space, especially since
the soil there would need a substantial amount of work to make it
suitable for gardening.
When abutters voiced concerns,
the committee shifted its plans.
“It’s not like we’re private developers trying to make a bunch of
money,” she said. “I can understand their (the neighbors’) positions.”
Ms. Fuller said a new location for
the parking lot has not been ironed
out yet. It could be put closer to
Route 114 where the Vitullo’s vegetable stand is currently located.
Mr. Persinos was pleased with
the committee’s willingness to
adapt and adjust.
“It (the meeting) ended on a positive note. They genuinely want to
work with us,” Mr. Persinos said. “I
think it was a wake-up call for
them. They’re now listening to us
and inviting us to meetings. It’s a
give-and-take, a collaborative
process.
“I think people underestimate
how much power they have at the
grassroots level.”
Ms. Fuller said there is much
work left to be done on the community garden plan.
“I’m glad the neighbors came
out,” she said. “It means they’re
engaged. We want to make it the
best for everyone.”
Plans are in place to create a community garden on town-owned property on Route 114.
Garden can give priority to residents
Barrington Community Garden would be established on a
section of town-owned conservation land located just south of
the East Providence border near
Route 114. The town purchased
the land in 2003; for generations
it has been used for farming.
There is an existing well on the
property and individual lots
would be leased to Barrington
residents for a small fee. The lots
will be 10 feet by 20 feet. A fence
will be built around the community gardens and a shed would
be constructed to store communal gardening equipment. Stuart Weymouth, a son of town
council member Kate Weymouth, first proposed the garden concept as part of a college
project. A committee has been
formed including Cyndee Fuller,
Bonnie Grassie-Hughes, Kim
Jacobs, Eivy Monroy and Kate
Weymouth.
“Although there is an existing
community garden at the town’s
Walker Farm, there are insufficient garden plots available to
meet the needs of all interested
Barrington residents. The Walker Farm property was purchased
with federal funds and, as a
result, all state residents are eligible to lease a plot. As a conse-
Dr. Lisa Daft
quence, Walker Farm has been
predominantly used by out-oftown residents since the farm
was first opened to the public in
the 1970s, and the available 25
plots have a very slow rate of
turnover, with plots unavailable
for new lessees in most years.
Conversely, the land on which
the Barrington Community Garden is proposed was purchased
with town funds, so there is no
requirement to make plots available to out-of-town residents.
The Barrington Community
Garden can give priority to Barrington residents,” stated the
proposal.

Three teens found intoxicated, say police
Officers alerted to
situation on
Washington Road early
Sunday morning
Police responded to a 911 call
early Sunday morning, May 18,
and allegedly discovered three
drunk teenage girls and one
teenage boy who had been smoking marijuana earlier in the day.
The department received the call
at 12:22 a.m. on Sunday from a
Washington Road resident who
said someone was crying out in the
street.
Officers responded and found a
girl laying on the ground and a boy
laying next to her — it appeared
the girl was crying and the boy was
trying to comfort her. Two other
girls stood nearby.
Officers began speaking to the
teenagers; the girls allegedly
wreaked of alcohol. The girl who
had been on the ground crying
reportedly told police that she had
been at a party in town earlier that
night when someone said something mean to her.
Police said the three girls were
intoxicated; the teens allegedly
consumed four or five shots of vodka each while at the party. The boy,
who had driven to the scene, had
not been drinking, said police, but
did admit to smoking marijuana
earlier that night.
Officers charged the three girls
with underage possession or consumption of alcohol. The
teenagers were later released to
their parents.
Police said the teenagers would
not disclose the address of the
underage drinking party that they
had attended.
POLICE REPORT
Flood lights re-focused, problem solved

A wooden sign was reportedly smashed at
a medical office on Waseca Avenue. The
sign is valued at about $100.
A River Oak Road resident stopped into the
station after she received a phone call that
she believed was a scam. She said someone
claiming to be an IRS agent called her
home and requested a return phone call.
Police tried calling the number, but the
extension had been disconnected.
Tuesday, May 13
A Western Avenue resident told police
someone entered his car while it was
parked in his driveway and stole his wallet
from the center console. He said the wallet
contained $402 in cash and assorted credit
cards and ID cards. A short while after the
resident filed the report, a Maple Avenue
resident stopped into the station with credit cards she found strewn across the roadway near her home. The cards belonged to
the Western Avenue man.
The animal control officer took possession
of a stray cat found on Nayatt Road — the
cat had reportedly bitten a woman.
Thursday, May 15
A motorist stopped into the station to
report damage to her vehicle after she
struck a pothole on the White Church
Bridge.
Police arrested Erika Nicole Asermely, 27,
of Pawtucket, on a bench warrant issued
from Sixth Division District Court for failing
to appear in court on a prior charge of driving with a suspended license.
Friday, May 16
A state employee called police after he
found a bicycle in the woods along the East
Bay Bike Path near Police Cove.
The caretaker for the former Zion Bible
College property called police after she saw
two backpacks left outside one of the buildings on the campus. Officers responded, but
were unable to gain access to the building.
Instead they seized the packs and went
through the contents to find identifying
information. Eventually police contacted the
parents of the two boys who owned the
backpacks. Officers warned the boys not to
re-enter the buildings; the property’s owner
did not wish to press charges for trespassing. The boys are 15 year-old Barrington
residents.
An officer responded to a Shore Drive residence to intervene in a neighbor dispute.
One resident had complained that the other
had installed an exterior light that shone
directly into her bedroom. The other neighbor had a similar complaint. The officer
helped both neighbors adjust their flood
lights so that they did not shine into each
other’s homes.

BURNING MOUTH SYNDROME
Q: What is burning mouth syndrome
and what causes it?
A: Burning mouth syndrome is a painful
disorder that includes a burning feeling
in the mouth and lips as well as a loss of
taste and a dry mouth. It is difficult to pinpoint the cause of the condition, but it is
often associated with chronic anxiety
and/or depression. It also is more common in women, particularly after
menopause. The condition can also be
triggered by oral habits like teeth grinding (also known as bruxism) or repetitive
tongue thrusting.
A variety of general health conditions
can also cause or contribute to developing the condition. Diabetes, gastroesophageal reflux disease and anemia
are among them. Also, a hormonal
imbalance, nutritional deficiencies or a
yeast infection in the mouth are sometimes associated with burning mouth
syndrome. It’s not uncommon for a
patient to start the day with no symptoms, only to have them develop and
intensify during the day.
Some studies have focused on the dysfunction of several cranial nerves as a
possible cause of burning mouth syndrome. Because of the difficulty in identifying the cause of the problem, diagnosis and treatment may require a collaboration between your dentist and your primary care physician. Whenever you
detect an unfamiliar sensation in your
mouth, you should consult your dentist
as soon as possible.

Police stopped two teenagers who were
spotted walking in the area of Fountain
Avenue and Townsend Street at about 4
a.m. The officers believed the boys may
have been involved in a prior larceny incident, but that was not the case. They were
found to be in possession of drug paraphernalia and were issued civil violations.
Police responded to a 911 call for a fight in
progress. Two motorists were arguing after
one believed that the other had backed his
car into his vehicle. It turned out that the
cars had not collided.
Police responded to a domestic dispute on
Whipple Avenue, where a man said his exgirlfriend was putting all his belongings on
the side of the road. He feared the items
may be stolen. Police asked the woman to
place the items in the home’s basement and
coordinate a time when they could be
removed.
A Barrington man told police he believed a
car dealership in Seekonk may be mis-using
his personal information. He said he had
stopped by the dealership and been interested in purchasing a truck. He had given
his information to a salesman, but the deal
never came to fruition. A short while later
the man started receiving notices that his
applications for loans at different banks
had been denied. He said he thought someone may have been using his information to
apply for loans.
OSTEOPOROSIS AND TOOTH LOSS
Osteoporosis, the bone-thinning disease
that makes bones more vulnerable to fracturing, raises concerns about fractures of
the hips, wrists, and spine; however, it
should also be noted that osteoporosis can
lead to tooth loss. The jaw bone that supports and anchors the teeth (the alveolar
process) is vulnerable to the bone-thinning
effects of osteoporosis, and there is a good
deal of research showing that the loss of
alveolar bone is linked to an increase in
loose teeth (tooth mobility) and tooth loss.
Women suffering from osteoporosis are
three times more likely to experience tooth
loss than those who do not have the disease. Older women may be more likely to
have osteoporosis, but men should also be
vigilant.
We urge a routine of periodic professional exams that will help ensure the health
and longevity of your teeth. Fillings, extractions, sealants, root canals, cosmetic dentistry, partial or full dentures, crowns and
bridges are just some of the services we
offer at SMITH FAMILY DENTAL ASSOCIATES. For exceptional dental care, call
401.434.7471 to schedule an appointment.
We’re located at 2780 Pawtucket Ave, E.
Providence, where we want to provide your
entire family with the best oral health care
possible.
P.S. Patients with osteoporosis may
experience difficulty with loose or ill-fitting
dentures as their jaw bones shrink.

Sarah DeCosta, hockey Olympian, visits local classroom
Students interview
two-time Olympian
BY AARON BRADY,
EMMA CHAFFEE
AND LUKE GORHAM
Hampden Meadows students
Mrs. Hunt’s and Ms. Reynolds’
5th grade classes had the opportunity to meet a two-time winning
Olympic athlete, Sarah DeCosta.
The classes started an Olympic
web quest and she came in to add
to the classes’ understanding of
the Olympics. Sarah DeCosta is a
hockey coach for the Rhode Island
Sting. She grew up in Warwick and
went to Providence College. In the
Olympics, she won a gold in 1998
and a silver in 2002.
When she came in, she let some
students try on her jerseys and
opening ceremony outfits. She
even brought in her gold and silver medals.
We interviewed this Olympian
after she spoke with the classes.
This is what she told us about herself.
How hard was it to be an
Olympian?
Sara said: Very hard! You sacri-

At what age did you start playing
hockey? Sara said age 5!
Did the team feel like family?
Sara said, “Yes. The team felt like a
family.”
How did you feel during a
shootout? Sara said, “Nervous to
go out on a shootout.” A shootout
is when it is a tied game, after
overtime, one person tries to
shoot to get your team an extra
point. Whoever gets the most
goals by the end of the shootout,
wins the game.
Who is your role model? Sara
said, “My parents because they got
me out of bed when I gave up. I
was going to give up on hockey
and my parents carried me out of
bed to drive me to an open try-out
for the Women’s Olympic Team.”
What was your favorite part of
the Olympics? Sara said, “Walking
into the opening ceremony for the
first time. You realize that you are a
real Olympian.”
Without question, Sara DeCosta
is one of the best female ice hockey goalies.
It was very cool to hear her
hockey stories.

Actor Academy Award — Dean
Jagger as Savage’s assistant. The
black and white film is unrated,
and runs for 132 minutes.
On May 28, the film is “The Man
in the Gray Flannel Suit.” Set
about 10 years after the end of
World War II, the story centers
around Tom Rath (Peck), a family
man with a wife and three children, who struggles to balance the
need for self-respect and a healthy
balance of work and home life,
with the pressure to advance up
the corporate ladder on Madison
Avenue. Flashbacks to Tom’s time
serving in the war are interwoven
with his present day life.
Also in the cast are Jennifer
Jones as Tom’s wife, Frederic
March as his boss, Keenan Wynn
as a man who served under him
during the war, and Marisa Pavan
as an Italian woman with whom
Tom had a wartime affair. The color film is unrated, and runs for 153

BCS is mixing art and literacy in June; plus a tour of Fifth Avenue’s crimes
Art and literature will once
again make a reappearance on
Barrington Community School’s
schedule. “Mr. Penumbra and Literacy” will be led by Arnie
McConnell on Thursdays, June 5
and 12, at Temple Habonim, 165
New Meadow Road, Barrington.
“Mr. Penumbra’s Twenty-Four
Hour Bookstore,” a novel by Robin
Sloan selected as the 2014 Reading
Across Rhode Island book, is a
meditation on what it means to
love words, explore technology,
and combine talents in creative
ways to solve mysteries and work
through problems.
If you love books, yet still wonder about the niche they will
occupy in our future. And, if you’d
like to think that every subculture
does not necessarily have to be a
cult, this book may be for you.
Tuition is $45 for BCS members
and $55 for non-members.
“Stained Glass in Newport: The
works of John LaFarge (18351910)” is offered by Richard Tyre,
Ph.D., on Fridays, June 6 and 13,
with a field trip set for June 20. The
opalescent stained glass windows
by American artist John LaFarge
are the subject of the course.
In two classroom sessions, the
class will explore the 20 stained
glass windows created for the
Newport Congregational Church.
Not only did LaFarge design the
windows, he also painted the
murals on the walls and ceiling.
These windows are some of
LaFarge’s earliest, dating from
1880. His two memorial windows
at Channing Memorial Church
also will be examined, including
“Through the Valley of the Shadow,” one of his largest.
The third part of the course features a field trip to Newport, with
tours of both churches and lunch
in Newport. The fee of $85 for BCS
members and $95 for non-members includes tuition, hand-outs,
and field trip (tours at both
churches, lunch, BCS escort,
transportation and driver tip).
If you prefer to create your own
masterpiece, spend some time
outdoors drawing and painting
with Ken Crook in a three-part
course, “Painting with Watercolor
en Plein Air.” Sessions are geared
toward the beginning watercolor
painter or intermediate student
wishing to hone their skills.
Get plenty of personal guidance
in a relaxed atmosphere. The
instructor, a graduate of RISD, has
a career in illustration.
Sessions are on Fridays, June 6,
13 and 20, from 1 to 4:30 p.m. at a
local location to be announced to
students by e-mail. Tuition is $65
BCS members/$75 non-members.
In trip news ...
“Crimes of the Fifth Avenue
Gold Coast” is on Friday, May 30.
The American Dream and its dark
side reside even on Fifth Avenue.
The creation of Central Park in the
1870s destined Fifth Avenue, the
park’s eastern border, to become
one of New York’s most elegant
addresses.
But as the wealth moved in, so
did chicanery and violence. Great
historic mansions housed both
perpetrators and victims, sometimes both living together. Highlights of the tour will include
information about American
tycoons with aristocratic yearnings, as well as their grandiose
homes and what happened in
them.
Learn about private armies,
criminal intent and financial
skullduggery while strolling this
landmarked district and hearing
titillating tales from New York historian Joyce Gold, the “doyenne of
city walking guides” (New York
Times). She teaches New York history at NYU and is the author of
books related to New York history.
The tour begins in front of the
Frick Collection at Fifth Avenue
and East 70th Street and will end
at the Metropolitan Museum of
Art, where lunch opportunities are
available. There will be time to vis-
it special exhibitions at the Met
before departure. The trip fee of
$93 members/$108 non-members includes 2 1/2 hour walking
tour, admission to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, BCS escort,
motorcoach and driver tip. Senior
citizens may deduct $5. Metropolitan members can deduct $12
from the fees.
Other upcoming trips with
openings are “The Tsar’s Cabinet”
at the Museum of Russian Icons in
Clinton, Mass.; “Gardens to the
North (Glen Magna and Sedgwick
Gardens at Long Hill)” on
Wednesday, May 28; “Damn Yankees” at Goodspeed Musicals in
East Haddam, Conn.; and “Beautiful,” a new Broadway musical with
outstanding reviews.

Guidelines for college graduation notices
If you want to let everyone know
that you (or your child) is graduating, now is the time to get the
information to the Barrington
Times.
Some colleges and universities
don’t send out complete notices
(including parents’ names, honors
received or employment plans)
and most do not include photographs.
Due to the large volume of
notices, the Barrington Times can
only print a graduation notice
once.
So, submit additional information or a photograph as soon as
possible. We need digital photos
e-mailed or sent on a disc as a
high-resolution jpg or tif. Or, we
accept glossy photographs (not
those with a matte finish).
We will begin running the
notices in June as space permits
and will print all the students from
a particular university or college
together when we receive the list
from the college (so, please be
patient).
Drop off material at the office at
1 Bradford St., Bristol, mail it to

“Jason has the ability to return the
big shots with equal strength on his
backhand and forehand.”
BARRINGTON HEAD COACH DICK ERNST
Eagle vying for tennis title
Barrington’s Jason
Scanlon will play
against Matt Kuhar
Eagles lose
on walk-off
single
BY ERIC DICKERVI T Z
Barrington baseball
team loses lead, game
[email protected]
After two days of tennis
between some of Rhode Island’s
top high school players, Barrington’s Jason Scanlon, a sophomore,
earned his way into the championship match where he will face
defending champion Matt Kuhar
of Smithfield. The title match is set
for Sunday, May 25.
Barrington sent its top three
players to the state tournament
— freshman Julien Tien and
junior Will Hemmingway were
eliminated from the tournament
on Sunday.
“Will didn’t have quite the energy in the third set,” said Barrington head coach Dick Ernst.
Scanlon continued to win,
beating Matt DelGreco of North
Kingstown 6-0, 6-2 in the quarterfinals, then East Greenwich’s Zack
Johnson in the semis.
After winning his preliminary
match against Devon Chofay of
Narragansett in three sets, 3-6, 64, 7-5, Hemmingway fell to DelGreco 7-5, 4-6, 6-1, sending the
North Kingstown player to face
Scanlon in the quarterfinals.
As Scanlon battled on the court,
Mr. Ernst watched courtside,
impressed by the physical and mental game taking place in front of him.
Strategically using the entire
court, Scanlon was able to keep
his opponent off balance with
potent backhand returns that displayed deadly accuracy.
“Jason has the ability to return
the big shots with equal strength
on his backhand and forehand,”
Mr. Ernst said. “It’s such an honor
for a sophomore to be in the
finals.”
On Sunday, May 25, Scanlon
will face the top-seed Kuhar for
the state title. Matches are scheduled to begin at noon at Slater
Park in Pawtucket.
The past weekend schedule for
the individual state championship
matches changed slightly, after
Friday’s rain pushed the start of
the tournament to Saturday. As a

The Barrington Eagles took a
heartbreaking 5-4 loss to Toll Gate
High School on Wednesday, May
14, after leading the game 4-3
going into the final inning.
Despite the Titans’ strong
offense, with 12 hits against the
Eagles pitching, Barrington’s fielders held Toll Gate from crossing the
plate for much of the game. In the
fourth inning, the Eagles grabbed a
4-3 lead, with two and one-half
scoreless innings to follow. But in
their final at-bat, the Titans’ had
their final say.
With a man on base, Barrington’s pitcher Matt Ferdenzi issued
two intentional walks to load the
bases and avoid the Titans’
strongest part of the order. Pitching to Toll Gate’s Tim Warner, Ferdenzi let up a line drive single that
drove in two runs and spelled
defeat for the Eagles.
The Barrington High School
baseball team has two games left
in its regular season, and two more
chances to improve its 6-10 record
in Division I. The Eagles are currently in seventh place in the
standings, slightly down from their
.500 record the Eagles had at this
time last year.
On Tuesday, the Eagles were
scheduled to play the Portsmouth
Patriots, a team whose 11-5 record
has them tied for second place in
D-I South. On Thursday, May 22,
Barrington will wrap up the season’s schedule at home against 8-6
South Kingstown High School.

Barrington throwers crush record at meet
Adam Kelly and Bobby
Colantonio top previous
meet record
Two teenagers from Barrington
recorded record-breaking throws
at the 2014 International Hammer
Implement Invite in Providence
earlier this month.
Barrington High junior Adam
Kelly and sophomore Bobby
Colantonio tallied throws that
bested Adam’s prior meet record
in the 5K hammer throw from
2013. Bobby had a second-place
throw of 228 feet, 10 inches, while
Adam finished in first place with a
throw of 232 feet, 3 inches. Adam’s
throw of 212 feet 10 inches from
the same event in 2013 had been
the prior record.
Both Adam’s and Bobby’s throw
were also longer than the existing
state record of 225 feet, 3 inches,
which Adam had set on June 27,
2013 at the World Youth Trials, held
at Southern Illinois University in
Edwardsville, Ill.
Barrington’s Mike Alvernaz was
fourth in the 5K hammer throw,
with a toss of 176 feet.
In the 6K event, Adam and Bobby were again among the top competitors in the field. Adam
appeared to set a new meet record
with a throw of 215 feet, 10 inches,
eclipsing former Barrington standout Charlie Ionata’s mark from
2013 of 212 feet, 6 inches. But
according to a report from the
meet, the hammer implement that
Adam was deemed too long —
“This appears to be due to a slightly elongated handle due to hits
against the throwing cage,” stated
the press release.
Therefore, Adam’s throw was not
counted for the meet record.
Bobby Colantonio was third in
the 6K event with a throw of 196
feet, 7 inches.
Mike Alvernaz also finished fifth
in the 7.26K hammer event, with a
throw of 137 feet, 9 inches.

Financial storm
on Barrington’s horizon?
New middle school,
community center and
street improvements carry
hefty price tags
The proposed budget this year
may include small increases for
taxpayers, but that situation could
shift significantly in the future.
Geoff Grove, a member of the
town’s committee on appropriations, told people at the May 14
budget hearing to be prepared for
some “difficult fiscal challenges”
in the next few years.
At the top of the list is a new
middle school.
Officials are considering the
construction of a new middle
school (or possibly a full gut renovation of the existing building)
which would cost tens of millions
of dollars. Mr. Grove included a
figure of $36,175,000 for the new
school, although he cautioned
that the estimate could change.
Officials have also discussed the
construction of a new community
center in Barrington. Mr. Grove
said he placed a $5 million price
tag on the project but added “I
have no idea how much it will be
proposed for or even if it will be
proposed.”
Taxpayers will definitely face
the question of whether to
approve a $1.6 million bond at
this year’s financial town meeting
— the money would cover costs
associated with the “village center
streetscape
improvements.”
Much of the work would be
focused on the downtown com-

mercial district of Barrington.
Mr. Grove said the committee
on appropriations was not
endorsing the $1.6 million bond,
although some individual members supported the idea.
Other future capital cost
increases include:
■ Library renovations. Officials
are reportedly calling for $1.2 million in renovations at the town’s
public library.
■ Affordable housing trust
fund. Council members recently
approached the committee on
appropriations
requesting
$750,000 for seed money for the
fund, but appropriations members denied the request because it
appeared too late in the budget
cycle.
Mr. Grove said appropriations
members felt that this year’s budget “set the stage for the town to
weather the coming (fiscal)
storm.”
— By Josh Bickford
BUDGET: FTM is next week
From Page 1
members of the committee on
appropriations presented their
budget recommendations — the
group is asking that voters
approve a $1,038,000 increase to
the school budget. If that happens, the total school budget
would increase to $46.3 million.
School officials had been
requesting a $1.218 million
increase, while appropriations
members had settled on a
$900,000 increase. The two sides
discussed the budget on Tuesday
night; appropriations members
offered the increase to $1.038 and
school officials agreed and
marked a few items for reduction.
Mr. Messore said officials cut
some money out of proposed
school supplies budget, reduced
the request for a communications
program from $50,000 to $15,000
and also eliminated 1.5 requested
teaching positions from the all-
day kindergarten program.
Mr. Messore said the district’s
projections for student population increases at the kindergarten
level appear to be lower than originally anticipated.
The school district’s request for
technology funding — $275,000
— was included in the combined
capital reserve account.
Impact to taxpayers
According to information provided at Wednesday night’s budget hearing, taxpayers will be facing a potential .32 percent
increase to the tax levy, if the proposed budgets are approved. That
equates to a small increase on the
tax rate — from $18.20 (per $1,000
of assessed property value) to
$18.26.
Appropriations member Geoff
Grove also reported that officials
are recommending an increase to
the motor vehicle tax exemption
— from $1,000 to $1,500.

As ospreys return to the bay,
monitors flock to orientation
BY DEWOLF F ULTON
A
Special to East Bay Newspapers
bout thirty osprey (fish
hawk) enthusiasts gathered recently at the
Audubon Society in
Bristol to an orientation
sesion for this year's
osprey monitoring program, an ongoing volunteer effort to track
the number of active and successful nests
in Rhode Island.
The group included both current and
aspiring monitors who came to share
recent osprey observations and to hear how
to select a site, secure approval and build a
nesting platform for the growing number of
birds to call home. Last year some 60 volunteers watched 208 sites and observed 168
new fledglings.
Monitors eagerly shared what they had
seen firsthand: the nest high atop a light
tower at Barrington High School athletic
field was knocked down in a storm, but the
birds were recently seen rebuilding.
Applause from the group.
People want to see ospreys up close
Volunteer Mike Gerhardt of the Warren
Land Trust reported success with a nest at
Baggy Wrinkle Cove in Warren. The recently built platform yielded an empty nest in its
first year, but successfully fledged two birds
in year two. "Our monitoring attracted a lot
of friends and bird watchers," Mr. Gerhardt
said, "People want to see them." One said
her friend's son built an osprey platform as
an Eagle Scout project.
Other monitors at the event: Eric Shaw of
Newport watches a nest at the U.S. Navy
Base, and two at Gooseberry Beach; Luis
Mendes watches nests in Bristol County
(MA) and Portsmouth; David Abell watches

eight nests in North Kingston; Paul Sanroma watches nests at Mill Pond in Bristol;
and David Winsow watches Allins Cove in
Barrington.
Some nests are high up and difficult to
see. Eric Walsh, who works with Audubon to
track the state population, said the activity
in a West Bay nest at Route 4 "is best
observed at 65 mph" as he drives by on
Route 95. Other monitors reported two
birds dead near a cell tower, likely victims of
electric wires. Federal and state agencies
want to know about findings of dead
osprey, Mr. Walsh said.
How to set up a nesting platform

services at Audubon, invited newcomers to

'Becky's New Car' a wildly fun ride
ive theater has the
uncanny ability to transport us. Which is not only
to say that the audience is given
rare glimpses into, say, Hamlet’s
Denmark, the France of Les Mis
or Eliza Doolittle’s London, but
that as we sit in the dark we are
taken out of ourselves, an ineffable experience
that allows us to
share the
thoughts, yearnings and feelings
of those characF. William
ters upon the
OAKES
stage. This is a
type of virtual
reality that stirs our deeper selves
and one that technology has never improved upon.
But that leaves the question:
what happens when the characters onstage just want to get
away? That’s precisely the conundrum posed in “Becky’s New Car”
which is both the smart comedy
now being performed at Warren’s
2nd Story Theatre, and the perfect vehicle for this sort of flight of
fancy.
This is the type of show that
provokes thought even as it tickles the funny bone. Our Heroine
Becky is more typical than archetype, a very relatable working
mom, juggling the ever-multiplying challenges of work, home and
family, overwhelmed and feeling
unappreciated and a little humdrum. As a middle-aged woman
in the midst of a mid-life crisis
she muses that “when a woman
says she wants a new car, what
she really wants is a new life.” Her
Margaret Melozzi as Becky and
Bill Oakes as her co-worker Steve
in 'Becky’s New Car' by Steven
Dietz, UpStage at 2nd Story Theatre, Warren, through June 1.
new car is her own autonomy.
That possibility presents itself
in the form of a well-to-do widower who offers the possibility of
new and exciting romance. And
the idea of an exciting illicit affair
and a break from the fairly happy
but routine rut of her life is an
irresistible urge that creates yet
another unwieldy situation she
must keep juggling aloft like the
rest of her life.
Moral and romantic dilemmas,
as Shakespeare and Moliere knew
full well, form the basis of comedy. Playwright Steven Dietz's
comedic take on Becky’s crisis
wittily examines the maddening
ambiguities of her modern life
and of Becky’s ethical situation,
all while exposing another truth
for us in the audience.
Dramatic fiction seeks to present the truth of a given situation;
and this play acknowledges, often
hilariously, the reality of the
moment: that we are in fact sitting in a building called a theater,
watching and listening to actors
telling us a story. To that end
“Becky’s New Car” gleefully bends
and breaks the rules of stagecraft
and the accepted pretense of dramatic convention.
You see; Becky knows that you
are in the building and watching
her life unfold and sometimes
unravel. She directly addresses
her audience, seeks your advice
and even enlists audience members to come onstage and assist
her in certain tasks (don’t worry, it
ain’t mandatory). It’s a lot of fun,
but no cheap gimmick as playwright Dietz’s deconstruction of
the imaginary ‘fourth wall’
between actors and audience
becomes a celebration of the
deeply collaborative nature of live
theatre: you in the audience complete the circle and become the
final and necessary members of
the cast.
Deitz’s comedic inventions
don’t end there. As with any classic stage comedy regarding
romantic complications and mistaken identity, Becky’s very real
trials and tribulations become the
stuff of farce. Complications and
coincidences not only ensue but
multiply, naturally enough, as
Becky struggles to juggle all the
disparate components of her life.
The situation is akin to the fifth
act found in many a comedy of

Where’s the bite
With warmer weather and a lot
of bait (Atlantic Menhaden and
squid) in the Narragansett Bay
and along coastal shores, fishing
broke wide open last week with
tautog, fluke and striped bass.
Here’s what is going on.
Striped bass bite for schoolies
was very strong all along coastal
shores and in Narragansett Bay.
Mike Wade of Watch Hill Outfitters, Westerly said, “Many fish
were caught in the River (Pawcatuck) this week with s 28” keeper caught from shore at Weekapaug.” Ken Ferrara of Ray’s Bait &
Tackle, Warwick said, “There were
more striped bass in Greenwich
Bay this week than in years.
Everyone was catching school
bass with an occasional keeper —

about one in fifty fish.” Last
week’s warming water combined
with bait fish in the Bay in large
numbers seemed to be the combination of conditions needed to
activate the bass. Dave Pickering,
noted author and shore striped
bass fisherman said, “The fish
tonight (last weekend) were hitting well after dark, a real good
sign that the fish are becoming
more active. The hot artificial
combination that has been scoring big time has been a Red Gill
teaser set up on a leader along
with a white, 7 1/2 inch Slug-Go
at the terminal end. The leader
that holds this all together is
made with 30 lb. test mono and is
about 2 1/2 feet long. The teaser
(Red Gill) dangles about 6 inches
off the leader's swivel. This is cast
out and twitched along with short
pulls of the rod tip as you retrieve
at a slow to moderate speed. The
Slug-Go moves erratically in the
water and stripers simply cannot
resist slamming it. One fish out of
seven or eight will take the teaser
which sometimes leads to double
headers. This is hot stuff right
now.”
Tautog fishing heated up last
week too. Angler Larry Norin said
he fished off shore this week for
tautog, “Left Point Judith at 7 a.m.
Three guys fished for two and a
half hours and we caught eleven
fish, nine keepers to six pounds,
all on crabs in 30-40 feet of
water.” Ken Landry and friend
caught tautog to 11 ? pounds
using both clam worms and
green crabs. “They fished at Plum
Point Light, General Rock and
Ohio Ledge.” said Ken Ferrara of
Ray’s Bait. Mike Wade of Watch
Hill Outfitters said the tautog bite
has been slow as not many
anglers are targeting them this
spring.
Fluke fishing is heating up with
commercial fishermen starting to
land fish along the southern
coastal beaches. Noted fluke
angler Cathy Muli said, “Got the
word there's small fluke on the
beach here, draggers are working out front.” So Cathy and her
husband Pat gave it a try this
weekend. “There were only three
boats out (ours being one of
them) from Watch Hill to Weakapaug Breachway.” They picked up
a few fish, all under 18” (recreational minimum size is 18” this
year, 8 fish/angler/day). Cathy
said, “I used the Jackpot Digger
Jig with a new addition to the
line…a fluorescent squid skirt on
a glow jig head. That's what I was
using tipped with a strip of squid.
Pat, on the other hand, was using
the white/red bucktail jig. We got
out late, 12:30 p.m., stayed 2
hours… Nothing to write home
about but at least we know
they're moving in.” Frank Blount
of the Frances Fleet reports that,
“(Last week) hi hook took home
six fine keepers with everyone on
board getting at least 2- 3 fish
apiece to take home. Pool fish
was 5 lbs…. This past Saturday's
fluke fishing was also pretty good
with a nice pull of keepers...
From mid week on they have
been marking increasing
amounts of bait as well.”
Squid fishing has blown wide
open with the Frances Fleet
reporting great squid trips.
“Patrons are landing a half of
bucket (five gallon pail) each
which is equal to last year’s best
trip,” said Roger Simpson. John
Migliori of Newport said, “Squidding at Goat Island is better than
it has been in a few years.”
Captain Dave Monti has been
fishing and shell fishing on
Narragansett Bay for over 40
years. He holds a captain’s master
license and a charter fishing
license. Contact or forward

OAKES: 'Becky's New Car' a wildly fun ride
From Page 2
Classical literature. But here the
tangled webs she weaves,
though wildly hilarious, are
sometimes capable of teetering
on tragedy. Truth will always
come out and to that end this
play is purposefully preposterous.
I must confess a bias. I’m
breaking that fourth wall here
too: I play a small role in this
show as Becky’s manic pal. But
you don’t have to share the stage
with her to love and appreciate
the acting of Margaret Melozzi,
who shines brightly as Becky.
A familiar and welcome face
to Rhode Island audiences, Ms.
Melozzi, a Tiverton resident and
Trinity Rep Conservatory graduate, has been seen on many
local stages. She last graced the
2nd Story stage in “The Divine
Sister” and earlier this season
was very good in The Gamm’s
“Good People.” I spoke to her a
bit about what it’s like to drive
Becky’s wild ride.
“I know it’s real”, she said. “I
think it’s funny and I’m certain
it’s unlike anything audiences
typically experience. What I love
is that everybody gets to take a
ride in 'Becky’s New Car' —
Becky, for sure, her family and
friends and definitely the audience. Like any good road trip
you come out different than
when you went in. I hope. And I
think that’s why we all get
together in the dark to do and
see plays.”
That hope expressed by Ms.
Melozzi is well fulfilled by her
onstage presence and then
some. Dietz penned a great play
but one that requires a very funny and fully realized woman
onstage to sit behind the wheel
and put pedal to the metal. Margaret Melozzi seems indefatigable in her frenetic onstage
efforts and she makes Becky’s
follies and foibles furiously funny precisely because her needs
and yearnings are absolutely
real and utterly relatable. We
can’t help but love her.
“You always fall in love with
your character”, says Ms. Melozzi,
“you have to love them to play
them. But with Becky I felt a connection with her from the minute
I met her on the page. I feel like I
know her. I understand her and
in some ways, I am her. I think its
her humor, her vulnerability, her
restlessness, her search joy in life
and her desire not to settle.”
Judging from the roar of laughter I hear from my vantage point
in the rear seat of this vehicle the
audiences are having a lot of fun.
Steve Dietz’s comedy “Becky’s
New Car” presents onstage the
ride of life, with many precarious
twists and hairpin turns of
inspired hilarity. Sometimes on
the road of life we find that we’ve
come full circle; the point and the
pleasure is to enjoy the journey. I
think you will.
“Becky’s New Car” at 2nd Story
Theatre, 28 Market Street,Warren,
now through June 1. See listings
for details.
STRAIGHT UP THE MIDDLE
Why bother to go to college
if you refuse to learn?
W
hile rivalries in sports
are generally considered to be healthy and
fun, I am beginning to think that
our college campuses are teaching
students to stifle differences rather
than learn from them. From coast
to coast we seem to be teaching a
generation of Americans that “free
speech” extends
only to those
with whom they
agree. I am so
disgusted with
what has transpired on college
campuses this
Cara
year: several
CROMWELL guest speakers
either have been
shouted down or been forced to
cancel their appearances because
students simply did not want to
hear from them. It would be like
Red Sox fans blocking the Yankee
bus from pulling into the parking
lot at Fenway to try and force a
forfeit. What’s the point of joining
a discussion if you only want to
hear from people with whom you
agree?
And let’s be clear — the people
who have been the focus of the
students’ ire are not skinheads or
members of the Westboro Baptist
Church. They are world leaders
like Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and Christine Lagarde
(Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund). And
while the uber-liberal campuses of
Smith and Haverford have been
among the most high-profile
schools to publicly reject their
scheduled speakers, Rutgers University (the state university of New
Jersey) was the campus that made
Condoleezza Rice feel so unwelcome that she declined her invitation. Think about it — thousands
of interested — not necessarily
indoctrinated — students and
their families have been robbed of
the chance to hear from the first
African-American female Secre-

tary of State because a vocal
minority did not agree with the
politics of the administration for
which she served. Shameful.
I blame some of this on what
appears to be the most narcissistic
generation of all time — and the
problem seems to be as much local
as national. Bryant President
Machtley had to institute a “no selfie” with him rule so that the conferring of degrees didn’t take 6 hours.
And how about the college kids
who thought that the Mount Hope
Bridge would be a good place for a
full public display of affection? Did
they tweet: “#busted #MtHopeBridge #300footclub”? But truly, it
comes down to thinking that your
opinion is the only one that matters. Last fall, New York City Police
Commissioner, Ray Kelly, was
heckled off the stage at Brown University because student groups had
gotten themselves whipped up
about alleged racial profiling in the
New York Police Department. So
rather than having the opportunity
to learn about what steps the
NYPD had taken to minimize profiling, they shouted down a public
servant who has spent his life
keeping their spoiled selves safe in
his big bad city.
I also blame part of this selfabsorbed, my-way-or-the-highway attitude on the mindset that
appears to permeate Congress
right now. Both Republicans and
Democrats can take their share of
the blame for finger-pointing
across the aisle about why things
don’t get done. There are few voices left in the middle and even fewer on each side who can see the
damage that is done by a government by stalemate and are willing
to put their political necks on the
line to fix the problem. If nothing
else, the navel-gazing college students of today will be perfectly
suited to serve in Congress.
As a not-so-recent college graduate, I remember my graduation
speaker (Congresswoman Patricia
Schroeder D-CO) for being kind of
boring and really predictable.
Would her talk have been more
memorable if she said something
that got me fired up? Maybe.
Would listening to someone with
whom I disagreed been a fitting
end to a challenging and academically rigorous experience? Definitely.
I’m clearly not qualified to give a
commencement speech, but if I
did, I’d tell students that you learn
more from listening to your opponent than you ever will from your
supporters, and that leadership is
not about getting people to do
what you say, it’s about getting
others to respect what you think,
even if they disagree. Of course, I
won’t wait for that invitation since
I know they won’t like what I’d
have to say.

TRASH OR TREASURE?
Local artisans creating tomorrow's family heirlooms, today
T
he definition of the word
“heirloom” in the dictionary is “a valued possession passed down in a family
through succeeding generations.”
What types of objects are going to
be passed down by the families of
today? Those objects passed down
evoke emotions in people. Perhaps it is a piece
of jewelry, a lamp
that sat on your
grandfather’s
desk, or the rocking chair your
mom rocked you
to sleep in as a
Karen
baby. It could be
WATERMAN a set of Lego
toys which you
played with and perhaps your
grandchildren will play with thirty
years from now. These objects carry memories and bring to life our
past.
In what has become our “throw
away” society, I would guess that
IKEA and Pottery Barn furniture is
not what we think we will want to
pass onto our future generations.
Today many artisans use the
word “heirloom” in marketing
their work and there are those
people who are willing to spend
the extra money for it. A craftsman
will use better quality materials
and devote more attention and
time to the details which will
make it last for decades unlike
something made of synthetic
materials and made in a factory.
The latter usually ends up in the
dumpster due to breakage, or
trends changes rendering it worthless. When considering what to
invest in, those objects which
serve a purpose may be appreciated longer than those which are
just decorative. Simplicity of style
and function is what has made
Shaker style furniture so popular
and timeless.
We in Rhode Island are blessed
with a great number of artists that
live and work here. Among furniture makers, there is Warren Chair
Works (mostly Windsor chairs)
and O &G Studios in Warren making classic furniture with a modern twist, who advertise their
pieces as “modern pieces with an
old soul.” Timothy Philbrick from
South Kingstown produces updated classics which are in several
museums (including RISD) and
Studio Dunn in Coventry, which
names of all of its pieces after
towns in Rhode Island. There is a
good list (not all) of local artists at
www.custommade.com/rhodeisland/us which includes furniture
makers, ceramicists, jewelry and
glass makers.

POLI-TICKS
I
Chafee thinks he's so smart
n previous columns I have
noted that Governor Lincoln
Chafee has the tendency to
think that he’s the smartest guy in
the room. His hubris manifests
itself by his personal attacks on
anyone who disagrees with his
point of view.
Former Governor Don Carcieri
was a frequent
target of his
scorn, whether it
Arlene
was the 38 StuVIOLET
dios deal or the
former Governor’s executive order
requiring employers to check on
the legal status of a new employee.
Chafee has now waded into the
debate as to whether taxpayers
should pay the “moral obligation”
bonds that financed the 38 Studio
deals by attacking the Republican
gubernatorial candidates — both
of whom opined that the taxpayers should not cough up the cash.
I do not need to defend the
bona fides of Republican Ken
Block, who made his money the
old fashioned way (through ingenuity and hard work) as opposed
to the Governor's wealth (family
inheritance.) I also don’t need to
come to the rescue of Mayor Allan
Fung, who by most accounts has
done a fine job in Cranston without burying the residents in tax
increases. Mr. Chafee raised taxes
to the tune of double digits in Warwick during his mayoral tenure
and boasted later about a “surplus” when he actually raised the
taxes too much.
The Governor seems incapable
of entertaining any reasonable
counterpoint. Take, for example,
the fine Providence Journal editorial of May 14. The editor(s) argued
that the Speaker of the House
should visit the bond agencies in
New York to pry out what their real
intentions are towards Rhode
Island. For good measure, the editorial argued for a savvy investiga-
tor with expert knowledge of the
bond market to interview eight to
ten prominent portfolio managers
to develop a pragmatic sense of
how badly Rhode Island would be
hit. It was also noted that there
should be some skepticism about
the Chafee consultant’s report that
Rhode Island taxpayers would pay
anywhere from $36 million to
$361.8 million more than they
would abjectly be surrendering.
This ludicrously wide range makes
one pause as to how much the
“study” is rooted in reality.
To be sure, Governor Chafee for
all his pronouncements about
how “unfit” the Republicans are to
replace him has stumbled badly
himself on this 38 Studios issue.
He dozed off when the financial
woes of 38 Studios mounted. He
appointed an executive director
and some board members who
apparently did not watch the
“store.”
He blew any chance for renego-
tiation of the interest rate with
bondholders by saying he would
pay the 6% rate rather than the
usual lesser rate of interest where
a state guarantee is provided. He
was so intent on putting his
thumb in the eye of former Governor Carcieri who made a suggestion about the default option, that
he poked the taxpayers in the eye
instead.
Then, there is the issue of extortion. Writing in "GoLocalProv,"
former Congressional candidate
Michael Riley, a financial whiz
himself, suggested a course of
action that would bring the rating
firms before the federal Security
and Exchange Commission (SEC)
were they to rate Rhode Island’s
bonds as junk below the debt of
Puerto Rico. There, Moody et al
would have to back up its downgrade at the risk of its own reputation.
The Governor just might not be
the smartest one in the room.

Beef tenderloin tips are
elegant, but easy to prepare
BY LYNDA REGO
[email protected]
We don’t eat a lot of beef, but
when we do, I want it to be worth
it. So, usually that means tenderloin tips or filet mignon.
This a foolproof recipe that I
tried despite my doubts. I thought
the meat would be overcooked,
but it wasn’t. I found the recipe on
a website and changed it a little,
and it always comes out marvelous.
The sauce is just delightful and
goes really well with mashed potatoes. The tomatoes add a splash of
color and freshness to the rich
sauce.

■ 1 cup halved cherry tomatoes,
red and yellow if you have them or
just red
■ Fresh thyme or rosemary, minced
Cut tenderloin tips into strips
1x1-inch square and then into
small triangles. Season with salt
and pepper.
Smash garlic. Melt butter in a
heavy frying pan on high heat (8
to 9 on my electric stove). Add
meat and garlic. Turn often so
nothing burns. Just before the garlic turns brown, add 1 cup of the
port.
If the stove isn’t on high (9 on an
electric stove), turn it up now and,
using a flat-edged wooden spoon,
scrape the pan as the port reduces
and coats the meat. Stir until the
port is almost gone. (It will seem
as if the meat is overcooking, but it
isn’t).
Toss in the cherry tomatoes, stir
and remove from heat. Plate the
meat.
Return the pan to the heat and
add remaining 1/2 cup port to the
pan. Reduce to a couple of tablespoons. Pour over meat. Sprinkle
with the minced thyme or rosemary and serve.
This is good with mashed potatoes or polenta.

HEALTHY EATING
Fish, seaweed make Japanese
food a consistently healthy choice
O
rdering sushi for dinner
can be a very healthy
option when going out
to eat. However, the calories and
fat can add up
quickly if you
are not mindful
of your choices.
Sushi is meant
to be shared:
split a few rolls
with your
friends or family
Emily
DELCONTE to sample several different flavors.
To start your meal, order a
bowl of steamed edamame (soy
beans). Ask to go light on the salt,
or skip the added salt all together.
The protein and fiber in the
bright green beans will get your
dinner started on the right foot.
Add a bowl of miso soup with
tofu and vegetables, or try a seaweed salad to pack in the vegetables.
For your entree, skip anything
with the words "tempura,"
"crunchy," or "spicy." These are
key words for added fat and calories from frying or a spicy mayonnaise. Ask your server for brown
rice or even quinoa instead of
white rice to bump up the fiber in
your sushi roll. Or, ask for half the
portion of white rice to be used
with your rolls to save on calories.
If eating sashimi, skip the rice all
together and eat with extra vegetables. Use soy sauce sparingly
as it is very high in salt.
Because sushi meals do tend to
be high in salt, make sure you are
drinking plenty of water. Sip on
some green tea to get a huge dose
of antioxidants, and truly enjoy
the full spectrum of Japanese flavors.
Seaweed Salad
1 cup dried seaweed, soaked in
cold water until soft
1/3 whole English cucumber, seeds
removed, sliced into thin strips
1/2 carrot, peeled, sliced into thin
strips
1/2 white onion, thinly sliced

'Her Maiden Voyage: Newport women in
an age of exploration'
From the Civil War through World War I,
new technologies made travel an available option for women with resources
and imagination. Some of Newport’s
pluckiest, most curious women set off
on adventures to elsewhere and discovered their own best selves. This lecture,
with historian Eileen Warburton, will
journey through some travelers’ tales of
quest and self-discovery from Newport
women including Katharine Prescott
Wormeley, Alva Vanderbilt, Margaret
Tobin Brown, Edith Wharton, and others. Mark Twain and Henry James will
also put in a brief appearance. A book
signing will follow the lecture.

OSPREY: Volunteers rally to support fish hawk’s resurgence
From Page 1
a new nest or join monitors. He
gave a rundown of the steps in
erecting nest platform:
1) Identify a location on open
ground, near water and away from
taller trees and people and not
within 200 ft. of another nest.
2) Secure approvals from the R.I.
State Coastal Resources Management Council (CRMC) if the site is
within 200 ft. of the coast or
coastal feature (wetland, river,
etc.). This can easily be done
online, Mr. Scoones said, adding
that applications need to show
ownership of the land and
approval from the local building
official. A $50 fee is also required.
3) Select a design: either tripod,
planks between two dead trees or
a center post set in concrete.
Materials can be easily purchased
at Home Depot or similar store for
under $200, Mr. Scoones said,
including a 6"x6" post with a 3 ft.
section sheathed in aluminum as
predator guards to safeguard
against climbing raccoons, and a
nest platform with wire mesh base
and an elevated perch.
4) Build the platform and wait
for the birds. Construction can be
a fun community event, Mr.
Scoones said. Audubon volunteers enjoy helping newcomers
start their own monitoring. "Just
put a few sticks on the platform to
give birds the idea a nest has been
started," he said. "Then you can
name your own nest to be included in monitoring data."
Birds return to Rhode Island
from Central and South America
in mid March, locate former or
start new nests with two to four
eggs through April, incubate the
nest in May, feed their young
through June till they fledge in July
(young will fledge 50-55 days after
hatching) and return south
between late August and late
November.
Monitors observe and
document a variety of data
"The goal of the monitoring program is to document the breeding
success of our population," Mr.
Walsh said. He said monitors make
a total of eight 15-minute visits to
each nest during the season,
recording data such as "are ospreys
present at the nest, are they incubating (sitting on the nest), are
young present and if so how many,
are adults bringing food to the
nest?" Data is submitted online.
"Avoid rainy, windy, hot and cold
days when adults may be shielding
their young," Mr. Walsh said. "Early to mid morning or evenings
when they are active are the best
times."
Mr. Walsh spoke highly of the
success rate of Rhode Island's
monitoring program, which has
tracked the dramatic comeback of
the osprey to this state since its
near demise in the 1960s. Over the
last 35 years, the osprey has
rebounded with the ban of DDT
and concerted volunteer efforts
such as the Audubon monitoring
program.
"It has been a perfect storm of
factors contributing to this success," Mr. Walsh said, "including
our small, accessible state with lots
of shallow open water surrounding
a fish-healthy Narragansett Bay,
and a volunteer effort that has
grown organically with more and
more people taking an interest in
this magnificent bird.
Volunteers who are interested in
joining the monitoring program
should contact Mr. Scoones at
Audubon (401/949-5454, x3044 or
[email protected]). To learn more
about the RI osprey population or
its monitoring program, visit

Container gardening is a way to enjoy the pleasures of gardening when you do
not have the space or inclination to garden in your yard. It allows you to have flowers, herbs and vegetables up close to where you enjoy the outdoors. Here are a few
tips.
Choose good sized containers. The increased volume of larger pots provides extra
room for the plant’s roots. Choose a soil mix that is well drained but high in moisture holding ingredients like peat moss. Porous containers such as terra-cotta, wood,
and moss lined baskets allow the contaiers to breathe, thereby keeping roots cooler
and providing oxygen for the roots. Make sure your containers have drainage holes.
A ready source of moisture and nutrients is critical to produce good growth. Two
products that help greatly are Osmocote, a slow release fertilizer, and Soil Moist, a
material that increases the water holding capacity of your containers. Mix these
materials in your soil mix for superior performance.
When choosing plants, combine contrasting colors for an eye-catching display, or
use related colors for a more subtle effect. Many vegetables like lettuces, parsley,
or even cabbages make attractive container plants to add to your flowers.

House of the Week
Church offers a future of divine possibilites
The opportunity to own a historic
church in Warren is a real possibility
with the listing of 21 Lyndon St.
Creativity is the key to an adaptive
reuse of this magnificent 1830
Greek Revival structure designed by
noted architect Russell Warren.
The former St. Mark’s Episcopal
Church is flanked by two marble
lions and recently
restored ionic columns. Located in a
great neighborhood to live and
work, the church could easily be
converted to a single-family or twofamily home.
The 17,020-square-foot property is
nestled less than a block from the
Warren River and surrounded by
well-maintained historic homes.
Beautiful and structurally sound,
there is lead-free exterior paint
and a newer roof. Perfect for use as
a home, studio, office, worship
space — the possibilities are endless.
The clean, relatively nondenominational lines of the neoclassical
architecture lend themselves to
seamless adaptive reuse. The building
sits a block from Water Street and
Main Street, the bustling arteries
of eclectic Warren, with more than a
dozen restaurants within walking
distance, as well as multiple banks,
shops, post office and grocery
store. St. Mark’s is also a few blocks
from Warren Town Beach and a
short distance from the East Bay
Bike Path.
St. Mark’s is a masterpiece of neoclassicism that has remained largely
intact. The magnificently carved
Ionic portico was likely executed by
shipwrights, as were the unusual
canted double doors in high Greek
Revival style. An integral 19th-century lantern remains at the entry,
flanked by marble lions resting on
granite plinths.
A generous lawn surrounds the
property that covers more than a
third of
a block. It is enclosed by lotus-figured cast iron fencing and
graced by several mature trees. The
historical significance of the
property fits in with the neighborhood — with most buildings in the
vicinity being late 18th or early 19th
century.
The interior is lit by eight arched
windows standing 14 feet high,
some with fine stained glass panels
added in the late 19th century. A
shallow barrel vault runs the length
of the space, which measures 70
by 40 feet, the ceiling being 25 feet
The former St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Warren can be a church, home, office, workshop or
combination of the above — with a grand entrance and welcoming marble lions.
at its highest point. The
building was lengthened to
accommodate 24 additional
pews and an
enlarged vestry in 1834. With
these additions, the building took
on
its present 3,900 square feet.
There is a half-bath, an unfinished basement and water views

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
