Six are running for four-year terms
BY JI M M C G AWjmcgaw@eastbaynewspapers.com
Reigning in the budget, improving acade-mic standards, bullying and even the windturbine were all issues that candidates forSchool Committee said they would focuson if elected.
Six people, ranging in age from 18 to 67,are running for four-year terms on the
board. Seven people originally filed nomi-nation papers to run back in June. Howevera Republican candidate, H. Weber Wilson,dropped out of the race shortly afterward,according to Jacqueline S. Schulz,Portsmouth’s registrar of voters.
We recently asked the remaining six can-didates to briefly outline their campaignpositions. Here’s what they told us.

“I am running because I truly see a visionfor Portsmouth education,” said Mr. Cros-ton, who has two daughters — one a seniorat Portsmouth High School (PHS) andanother in the seventh grade. “That visionalso involves the evolution of our businessmodel such that we can sustain the inde-pendent excellent that we have come toknow in Portsmouth education. Quite
frankly, it cannot continue status quo."The school district and taxpayers need to
ask difficult questions and challenge them-selves to do more, he said.
“Do we really have the rigor we reallybelieve we do in the lower grades, and dowe really have college-ready graduates? Myfrustration comes in making sure our pro-gramming is such that we’ve given the kidsadequate opportunity to excel,” he said,noting that many Portsmouth graduates are

Old bridge getsrepurposed
The old Sakonnet River Bridge was put to good userecently when the Portsmouth Fire Department con-ducted high angle rescue training on the span.
The R.I. Department of Transportation has allowedthe department to use the bridge until Dec. 1 with thestipulation that no vehicles be on the span, accordingto Deputy Fire Chief Michael O’Brien.
“High angle rescue is an advanced skill; the few thathave the training will be providing the training to therest of the department,” said Deputy O’Brien.
Previous examples of high angle incidents inPortsmouth, he noted, include rescuing “a person offthe radio tower behind the station, a person hangingoff a ledge wall off of Indian Avenue, a motorcyclistwho was thrown over an embankment on Route 24,and a car accident in Tiverton.”
The old span, which lies just north of the new Sakon-net River Bridge which replaced it in 2012, is scheduledto be demolished next year. Firefighter Ethan Delany takes part in the high angle rescue training on the old Sakonnet River Bridge.

They didn’t throw anything into the collection plate, but it didn’t mat-ter.
The four-legged friends who came out to St. Mary’s Episcopal Churchthis weekend were warmly welcomed just like all otherparishioners.
In honor of St. Francis, the patron saint of animals, thechurch hosted special “Blessing of the Animals” Masseson Saturday evening and Sunday morning.Parishioners were invited to bring their pets — or evenstuffed animals — for a blessing by the Rev. JenniferPedrick, the church’s rector, and Dr. Mark Stamoulis, aparishioner and veterinarian. After the services, Dr. Sta-
moulis was available for pet-related pastoral care.Some parishioners were seeking the power of prayer to help heal
their pets. Suzanne Doucet brought Foofa, her Pomeranian dog whosuffers from congestive heart failure and is on medication to control it.

Giant gourd weighsnearly 1,800 pounds
Ed Giarrusso’s hoping for a bet-ter showing this year when hehauls his giant gourd atop thescale at Frerichs Farm in WarrenSaturday.
Last year, the Prudence Islandresident came in fourth in theSouthern New England GiantPumpkin Grower’s weigh-off,when his giant squash tipped thescales at 1,289 pounds. (The win-ner was another Portsmouth resi-dent, Bob Singleton, whosepumpkin weighed in at 1,426.5pounds.)
This year, Mr. Giarrusso’s got areal whopper coming to Warren —500 pounds heavier, he says, thanlast year’s entry.
“I have one in my patch rightnow that’s 1,790 pounds and that’sgoing to Frerichs Farm on Satur-day,” said Mr. Giarrusso.
It’s the biggest he’s ever grown.
“The biggest before that was 1,422pounds,” he said. “I’ve never wonFrerichs, but I have a chance towin Rhode Island with this one.”
Last week, he came in second ina state championship in Con-necticut. He brought a differentgourd that weighed in at 1,621pounds.
“I got beat by four pounds,” hesaid.
Mr. Giarrusso said it was a goodseason for pumpkins.
“We didn’t have much rain, but Ihave my own wells here so I’m notlimited to how much water I canuse,” he said, adding that there’sno real secret to growing a mam-moth gourd. “It’s just the geneticsin the seeds.”
Pumpkins will arrived Saturdayat Frerichs Farm, 43 KinnicuttAve., Warren, at 8 p.m., with theweigh-off starting at noon. (Therain date is Sunday, Oct. 12.)
Admission is free, but parking is$5.

The crew of four men is safe butSakonnet Lobster, one of this area'sbest known fishing boats remainson the sea bottom about 40 milessouth of Block Island.
There is no word yet on whetherany salvage effort might beattempted and no official state-ment on the cause of the sinking.Owner James Mataronas of LittleCompton could not be reached forcomment.
Said another Sakonnet lobster-man who asked not to be identi-fied, "Great boat — it's like a deathin the family."
The Coast Guard plucked thefour lobstermen from the sea whenthe 60-foot Tiverton-based Sakon-net Lobster sank last Thursday,Oct. 2. The boat was headed hometo its Tiverton dock from a lobster-ing trip when it went down.
Coast Guard Sector Southeast-ern New England received a dis-tress call at about 4:15 a.m. fromthe four-man crew aboard theSakonnet Lobster that the boat wastaking on water.
The Coast Guard First DistrictCommand Center in Bostonlaunched a MH-60T Jayhawk heli-copter rescue crew from Coast
Guard Air Station Cape Cod. The110-foot Coast Guard Cutter Chi-nook also made way to the Sakon-net Lobster's position.
At about 6:40 a.m., the SakonnetLobster crew had donned their sur-vival suits and abandoned ship.The aircrew arrived on scene, andhoisted all four fishermen safelyaboard by 7 a.m. They made way
to Air Station Cape Cod where EMSawaited. No injuries were reported.
The Sakonnet Lobster sank inabout 250 feet of water, and theCutter Chinook marked its lastknown position. The boat wasencountering 30-knot northeastwinds and 6-foot seas at the time.The water temperature was 64degrees. The air was 59 degrees.
Although conditions were difficultthey were nothing that the boathadn't weathered many timesbefore.
"These are very lucky, but alsovery prepared fishermen," said Lt.Matt Vanderslice, the aircraft co-pilot from Air Station Cape Cod."They had all the right gearonboard, it worked, and they knew
how to use it — That's why they'resafely back on land today."
The black-hulled boat was afamiliar sight tied up alongside thelobster boat Edna May (owned byMr. Mataronas' brother Gary) attheir dock off Main Road in Tiver-ton.
Built in Florida in 1980, SakonnetLobster had done offshore lobster-ing in these waters for 34 years. Itwent out in all sorts of weather —photos in this newspaper haveshown the boat coming in coatedwith ice after winter storms. Otherpictures showed Sakonnet Lobsterat the dock decked out with Christ-mas lights.
Although a buoy marks theboat's position, raising it would bechallenge. And even if raised, it'slikely that engine, generator,wiring, electronics and other sys-tems would have been ruined byexposure to salt water.

The second of two Candidates Nights hosted bythe taxpayer watchdog group Portsmouth Con-cerned Citizens (PCC) will be held at 7 p.m. today,Oct. 9, at Town Hall, 2200 East Main Road.
Some of the six candidates for School Committeewill be greeting voters in the Town Council cham-
bers.Attendees will have the opportunity to meet the
candidates, hear their presentations and take part ina question-and-answer session.
PCC held its first candidates night on Wednesday,which was for members of the Town Council.

woefully behind in technologyeducation.
One of the biggest challengesgoing forward, he said, is thattown leaders have a commonvision as to what the district wantsto be and how to get there.
“And, how can we afford to doit?” asked Mr. Croston, addingthat financial forecasts indicate itwill be difficult for the committeeto balance the school budget in2017 and 2018. “The municipalmarketplace has done little adap-tation in decades and that thedelivery of services and whatdefines Portsmouth as an inde-pendent community is reallysome of the core cornerstoneissues that this next committeeand Town Council will face. Thepressures are that great.”
Although he’s proud of the “T3”athletic field improvements at thehigh school this year, he said thedistrict hasn’t invested in itsschool buildings in decades.
“The capital investment is goingto be a huge issue for the nextcouncil as it is the next SchoolCommittee. We can’t afford to doeverything; it’s going to be sober-ing and we need to be determinedon investing X and how we getthere,” said Mr. Croston.

“I’m running basically to con-tinue to see the positive changeswe’ve made, which include a pret-ty solid strategic plan and, frankly,changing the leadership team,”said Mr. Faerber, who has twogrown children. “With the newsuperintendent and assistantsuperintendent, I think we have astrong stable leadership teamwith a lot of good experience andthe district’s been lacking that forthree or four years now.”
Mr. Faerber said it’s essentialthat the schools’ five-year strate-gic plan — a guide prioritizingefforts to improve the schools andeducational outcomes during aperiod of declining fiscalresources from the state — not beleft on the back burner.
“My experience is that oncethey’re written, they sit on a shelf
and nobody gives a damn,” hesaid. “My contribution is to try toimplement this as a working doc-ument and to keep it simple. Thestrategic plan is a guideline, but itkind of duplicates the state’s ownbasic education plan that’srequired of all districts anyway.The major thing we need to do isto put in metrics that will measurethe performance of teachers andstudents. That’s the only way wecan measure how we’re doing.”
The schools also need to contin-ue improving academic stan-dards, he said.
“We want to develop a strongSTEAM program and we have todevelop our compliance withCommon Core curriculum stan-dards,” he said. “My feeling is theschool system needs more rigorthan we need evidence. We wantto exceed the Common Core cur-riculum. The end result, hopefully,is every Portsmouth graduate willlook back at their school experi-ence and feel it really helped themsucceed later on, with them say-ing, ‘Boy, I’m glad I went toPortsmouth schools.’”
Jessica LinebergerParty: DemocratAge: 18Occupation: Student at Roger
Williams UniversityPrevious town positions held:
This is her first time running foroffice.
“I want to make a difference andI don’t feel there are enoughwomen in government, especiallyin Portsmouth,” Ms. Linebergersaid when asked why she’s run-ning. “This is a small town and Ifeel like it’s mainly middle-agedmen when I feel there should be alot more of a younger influence,especially with women.”
Ms. Lineberger, who is majoringin legal studies at RWU and hopesto eventually open her own lawfirm locally, said her youth wouldbe an asset if she were elected.
“I’ve been in the Portsmouthschool system my entire life, so Iknow it front and back. I also haveyounger siblings who are goingthrough the school system. I knowthe minds of the students and Iknow how to help them,” said Ms.Lineberger, who graduated fromPHS last spring.
Educating students about druguse is a key issue she’d focus on ifelected.
“I think we should focus a lot onthe side affects of drugs instead ofthe prevention of drugs. A lot ofpeople don’t know what will hap-pen to you if you take certaindrugs,” she said.
Ms. Lineberger said even thebroken wind turbine at PHS issomething that could beaddressed by the School Commit-tee.
“There are a lot of problemswith misconstrued facts,” shesaid. “Some people are telling onestory and someone else is tellinganother story and I feel we need towork through that right now. It’smore of a Town Council issue, butobviously it affects the schoolsbecause there are a lot of rumorsgoing through the schools.”

2012)Ms. Medley said she chose to
run for School Committee thisyear because she now has the timeto do so.
“I have an empty nest,” said Ms.Medley, who has two daughtersand a son, all in college. “I think Idid a good job bringing up my kidsand I want to give back to thecommunity.”
Despite budgetary constraintsfaced by the schools, Ms. Medleysaid the district can still challengeitself to improve its educationalstandards.
“I think we need to get ourschools to set the bar a little high-er,” she said. “Instead of spendingmore more money per pupil, weneed the schools to work harder. Ithink we can spend less and get ahigher quality by setting the barhigher. That’s my platform.”
Ms. Medley said she has facedcriticism for running for SchoolCommittee after sending her chil-dren to private schools. “I thinkmy kids’ education was good, buta lot of it was just hard work. Itwasn’t a money issue, it was moreof a discipline issue. They workedhard,” she said.
Bullying in the schools is anoth-er issue she’d like to tackle if elect-ed. Ms. Medley said her kids didn’texperience problems with bully-ing in the private schools. Howev-er, Ms. Medley said she was bul-lied while attending publicschools and chose to stick it outdespite having an opportunity toswitch to a private institution.
“If I do get on the School Com-mittee, I want to start a anti-bully-ing campaign,” she said, addingthat it would involve getting vol-unteers and student mentors toreach out to those students whoare troubled.
Thomas R. VadneyParty: RepublicanAge: 58Occupation: Self-employed pro-
grammer and small office ITPrevious town positions held:
Incumbent School Committeemember, elected in 2010
Mr. Vadney said he’s seeking asecond term on the School Com-mittee so he can continue working
toward the best education possi-ble for Portsmouth kids whilekeeping the schools affordable forparents.
He recalled being invited to readto first-graders at Hathaway Ele-mentary School in the spring andhow much he enjoyed the experi-ence. “Hathaway is our Title 1school. It would be a shame thatthese kids’ parents were taxed outof Portsmouth,” he said.
The biggest issue going forwardis maintaining a sustainable bud-get while preserving student pro-grams, said Mr. Vadney, whosetwo daughters went throughPortsmouth public schools.
“This is something that peopledon’t see because the surplus ispaying for it,” said Mr. Vadney.“Yes we have a surplus, but it’s anindication of having a misman-aged budget, just like it is havingan underfunded budget.”
He pointed to drastic cuts instate aid. “We’re losing $240,000 to$250,000 from the state every year,so by the 10th year it’s going to be$2.5 million,” he said. “Somedaythe surplus is going to run dry.”
Maintaining a positive, workingrelationship with the Town Coun-cil going forward will be key, hesaid.
“At the beginning of the budgetseason we should go to the highschool library and have one nightthat the school budget is present-ed, then the next day the TownCouncil budget is presented andthen the third night we debate thebudgets,” he said. “The SchoolCommittee and the Town Council
need to be educated on what ittakes to run a town and what ittakes to run a school district. Wecan’t keep throwing money ateverything. We have to addressthese issues now.”
John WojichowskiParty: DemocratAge: 50Occupation: Assistant engineer,
GTECHPrevious town positions held:
School Committee member since2012 after running for seat vacatedby member who resigned
Mr. Wojichowski, who has twosons who graduated from PHSand another in the 10th grade,said the first reason he’s runningagain for School Committee isthat it’s fun.
“I believe it’s a very critical posi-tion as I’ve learned over the pasttwo years,” he said. “We have peo-ple on the board who are passion-ate about public education andthey feel deeply about the acade-mic performance of students andthey want to make a better schoolsystem for the next generation.”
The most pressing issue facingthe district, he said, is the statefunding formula.
“It’s phased in at a $2.5 millioncut in the next 10 years; with infla-tion, it’s probably a bigger cut thanthat,” said Mr. Wojichowski.“We’ve been fortunate to have thissurplus that we can tap into tomake ends meet, (but) in the cur-rent budget we eliminated 12teaching positions. We’re notgoing to be able to cut our way out
of $2.5 million dollars. We need tofind out how to have a sustainablebudget. I don’t know what theanswer is, to be perfectly honest.”
The committee must alsoaddress its facilities, many ofwhich are in woeful need ofupdates, he said.
“Our buildings are 50 years oldnow,” he said. “We just had a studydone and we have some significantcapital improvements that need to
be done. I think one of the very firstthings out of the gate for the newSchool Committee is formulating anew five-year capital improvementplan to tackle these items. That’s agreat use of surplus money, but Ithink at the end of the day we’llhave to go to the Town Council todiscuss how to finance some of thebigger items. We have to do itsmartly and seek reimbursementthrough the state.”

To the editor:The double bump to a AAA
bond rating awarded toPortsmouth by Standard andPoor should come as no surpriseto the citizens of Portsmouth.What is surprising is the currentpresident of the council takingcredit for it.
His quote, “The AAA ratingreflects our absolute commitmentto our residents and taxpayers andis the reflection of the hard workour town and school leaders overthe last two years,” ignores theaccomplishments of the previousRepublican-controlled council.Commitment to the residents isnot merely plaques of recognitionfor individual contributors butshould instead focus on tacklingthe monumental tasks of pensionreform, OPEB debt and elimina-tion of obscene tax revenue sur-pluses.
Let us not forget it was the pre-vious council and School Com-mittee that made decisions andput policies in place thatchanged the economic structureof Portsmouth.
The previous Republican-con-trolled council:
! Faced up to the onerous$32M unfunded pension liability.A joint committee was formedbetween the council and SchoolCommittee and a plan was ham-mered out to replace the townpension program with individual401K accounts.
! For the first time in townhistory, professional labor attor-neys were engaged to negotiatelabor agreements. The resultswere substantial. Four of fiverepresented labor unions agreedthat pension changes were intheir best interest. Only thepolice union has not agreed.
! Implementation of the Cap-ital Improvement Plan (CIP) is asignificant factor in Portsmouth’snewfound financial stability. Theroads being paved today startedwith the previous council’sestablishment of a $1M “roadsprogram.” The CIP enables thetown to budget annually forneeded maintenance of townbuildings and roads.
! Halted the depletion of thefund balance and initiated annu-al budgeting contributions to it.
! Halted borrowing $700Kannually (school warrants) and
replaced it with budgeted CIPfunding.
Standard and Poor’s decisionto award Portsmouth a two levelbond rating update is a result ofthe previous council’s head-onapproach to meeting challenges,addressing them and recogniz-ing the true meaning of financialresponsibility.
There are more challengesmissed by the present TownCouncil such as achieving pen-sion reform with the remaininglabor union, the growing $12.6MOther Post Employment Benefit(OPEB) debt, eliminating dupli-cate town functions, tax revenuesurpluses in some departmentsat the expense of others and res-olution of the wind turbine issue.
Six years ago the town fundbalance was depleted to a criticallevel, and Portsmouth was drift-ing into financial distress. With-out the work accomplished bythe previous Republican council,our new town administrator andSchool Committee, Portsmouthcould not have earned a AAAbond rating.

Unbelievable! Our current tax-and-spend Council is looking at a“fees for services” plan for serviceslike ambulance and police calls.Jim Seveney of course led the way.
The reasoning is to ward off afuture “budget crises” so taxes willnot have to increase as much. Thisis the easy way out. These fees arenot the answer. Getting control ofour budget is.
The previous Council voted toimplement “zero based budget-ing” for fiscal year 13/14. This hasnot been done. We can now pur-chase our street lights to savemoney. Has this been looked into?Do we really need to throw goodmoney after bad on the windmill?
Is the problem caused by individ-ual Councilors approving expen-ditures without Council approval?
Bringing in top managementfrom the outside was done tobring in new ideas. In fact, whenwe hired our new Administratorhe told us that he was a fiscal con-servative. That there were ways togenerate income for projects (likeroad paving) through grants andefficiencies in the Departments.
All I am seeing from this Admin-istrator is higher taxes. And nowfees for services that we alreadypay taxes for. How disappointing.

It was June 3 that this councilvoted to pursue contracts to repairour wind turbine. I voted againstthis decision after researchingsimilar turbines that had failedlike ours. I would have supporteda repair to the gearbox if a guaran-tee was presented.
Our turbine was a failed experi-ment that wasn’t fully vetted fromday one and we had the misfor-tune of picking low bidder AEER.While the initial intentions
seemed practical, today we knowmore about WTGs than we didprior to March 2009 when thismachine first spun. Wind shear,shadow flicker, and gathering datawith a “met” pole were importantconsiderations we missed.
This turbine’s biggest weaknessis the gearbox. The Abbey’s WTGstill spins as do the three Chinesebuilt monster turbines on theProvidence waterfront. Thesemachines no not have a gearbox.
Princeton Municipal Light hastwo similar WTGs and have beentold by the gearbox manufacturer,Jake, that they can build a gearboxfor any application, but that thegreat amounts of torque generat-ed, will ultimately result in failure.If a guarantee was available, thismachine would be spinning againtoday.

CANDIDATE STATEMENTS
One of my top priorities, if re-elected, is to continue to worktoward making Rhode Island amore attractive state in which tolive and work.
Rhode Island for example, islisted as one of Kiplinger’s top 10least tax-friendly states forretirees. Kiplinger, who providespersonal finance news, indicatesthat our state is particularly toughon retirees because Rhode Islandnot only taxes Social Security ben-efits, but also other sources of
retirement income, includingpension income.
To me, this is unacceptable. Ourgoal should be to attract business,grow our economy and to make itmore affordable for our retireesand our veterans; we need to stopimposing such taxes. It is impera-tive that we look at the way we taxretirement and veterans’ pensionsand change that policy.
In the past legislative session, Iintroduced a bill that will create acommission to study the methods
and the financial implications oftaxing personal retirement andpension income.
Eliminating or reducing the taxon pension and retirementincome would benefit our stateand the many retirees and veter-ans living here. We need to take aserious look at this tax policywhich hasn't been addressed inyears.

I am proud to have served onour strategic plan subcommitteeover the past two years. Under theleadership of Dr. Copeland, wehave developed a five-point planto improve our school system overthe next five years.
We have now tasked Superin-tendent Riley to review thisplan, recommend any changes,and then put this plan into
motion. One of the centerpiecesis to place an emphasis onSTEAM (Science, Technology,Engineering, Arts, and Math).Since we have an economy thatis based on innovation, it is mybelief that our graduates musthave greater awareness of thesesubjects and learn to appreciatehow they are applied in today’sworld.
I am not suggesting that othersubjects are less important.Clearly, there are many careerspaths outside of engineering,but I believe it would be a dis-service to our students not topoint out how in demand theseskill sets are in today’s economy.

Improving customer service will
be my primary concern if electedtown clerk. Staff should be cross-trained in order to provide thebest service possible to residentsof Portsmouth. This is not cur-rently the situation. Knowledge isnot shared and it impacts both theresidents and the staff.
The office is not running as effi-ciently as it could. More and moretasks are being assigned to theclerk’s office and one person can’t
do it all. If the staff is not trained tohandle multiple duties, residentsmay be inconvenienced, andimportant administrative require-ments may be missed.
If elected as town clerk, I willwork hard to deliver courteous,responsive and effective service toall who enter Town Hall.

80-yard drive seals it for Portsmouth

The East Providence Towniesand Portsmouth Patriots facedoff in a thriller Friday night atPierce Memorial Stadium, a Divi-sion I football game that wasn’tdecided in the visiting Pats’ favor,20-14, until the last second.
The Townies made well-timedplays in the first half which keptthe game close. However,Portsmouth went into the breakwith a 14-7 lead. The Towniesfound themselves needinganother timely play in the wan-
ing moments of the contest onfourth down and five trailing by a
touchdown, but weren’t able toconvert with less than a minute
to play. The Townies couldn’t finda way to make one more oppor-tune play that had kept them inthe game all along.
“Give East Providence a lot ofcredit,” Portsmouth coach RyanMoniz said after the game. “Theymade the plays they needed tomake, to make it a really tightgame.”
It was a roller coaster of emo-tions from the very beginningwith Portsmouth quieting thesizable crowd just five minutes inwith a 55-yard touchdown byrunning back Ryan MacDonald.
It looked like the Patriots mightbe running away with the gamewhen they had the ball on EastProvidence’s 15-yard line after aTownie fumble. Then, a leapinginterception was made by EastProvidence’s Paulo Pereira at thegoal line to prevent the Pats’advance.
Portsmouth made anothercostly mistake as the Patriotsmuffed a punt that was recov-ered by East Providence. TheTownies proceeded to puttogether a 57-yard drive by usingthe running game capitalized byTrystan Casey, running it in for atwo-yard touchdown that tiedthe game at 7.
Casey’s TD was preceded by asprawling catch from tight endTyler Lockard of a RyanEllinwood pass inside the Patri-ots’ five.
Portsmouth then made a bigplay of their own with a 25-yardtouchdown pass, a slant routedown the middle, from ColinTullson to Andrew Ake that putthe visitors up 14-7 going into thehalf.
The Townies continued tomake key plays in the second half
highlighted by a 35-yard touch-down pass from Ellinwood toJayden Chase that tied the gameat 14 with two minutes to play.
Tullson leads chargeIt now looked like the game was
heading to overtime untilPortsmouth put together a game-winning, 80-yard drive lead by therunning of Tullson, the Pats’senior quarterback, to put the vis-itors up 20-14.
On “Townie Pride Night,” theannual celebration of East Provi-dence schools, the crowd was loudand energetic until the very end,chanting “Let’s go Townies” and “Ibelieve that we will win” as theseconds winded down.
The Townies were then giventhe ball with just over a minute toplay in the game. They proceededto drive the ball down the field toPortsmouth’s 45-yard line. Then,on fourth-and-five, East Provi-dence wasn’t able to convert andgave the ball back to Portsmouthas time expired.
“I thought our kids played reallyhard and they never gave up,” EastProvidence’s head coach Jay Mon-teiro said. “I am proud of my kidsand hopefully we are going tobounce back next week.”
Portsmouth is now 2-1 in Divi-sional play and 3-1 overall. ThePatriots travel to Cumberland onFriday, Oct. 10.

Lincoln School, an all-girls independentschool in Providence, recently launched
Girls Who Code Clubs inboth the Middle andUpper Schools this year.Girls Who Code, a non-profit organization work-ing to inspire, educate,and equip girls with thecomputing skills to pur-sue 21st century opportu-nities, partners with
schools and other community-based orga-
nizations across the country to offer com-puter science education and tech industryexposure to girls in grades 6 through 12.
Suzanne Fogarty, Lincoln’s new Head ofSchool, immediately set about getting theGirls Who Code Clubs underway at Lincoln,
feeling strongly that while “technologytouches every aspect of our lives, currentlywomen are grossly underrepresented incomputer science.” Only 12 percent of col-lege graduates majoring in computer sci-ence today are women, as compared to 37percent in the 1980s.
“We need to change that,” Fogarty says. “The problem is,” said Reshma Saujani,
Founder and CEO of Girls Who Code,“when it comes to science, technology,engineering, and math….the girls aren’tshowing up.” She’s committed herself to
doing something about it; and in partner-ing up with Girls Who Code, so has Lincoln.
“There’s more at stake than just teachinggirls to program. It’s also about correctingan imbalance in the world of technologyand adding the perspective of youngwomen to the mix,” says Doug Alexander,Director of Technology and clubs instruc-tor. “They think about different problemsand approach them in different ways, but ifthey don’t learn these high-tech skills they

GUIDE TO PRIVATE SCHOOLS
In 2009, three Friends Academy eighthgrade students had an idea. They wanted totake the school “green” by installing solarpanels as part of an independent servicelearning project. Friends Academy, anindependent school in North Dartmouth,provides students with service opportuni-ties that help them develop civic aware-ness, social responsibility, and encouragesthem to become productive members oftheir communities through volunteering.
The boys designed an independent studyproject that they hoped would eventuallybring solar energy to the school’s TuckerRoad campus.
“There was not an adult in the buildingwho believed this could happen,” MiddleSchool science teacher Mary Pierce hasbeen quoted as saying. She knew that theexpense of solar panels was somethingschools just didn’t have the money to investin.
But as Matt Walker ‘10, Colin Babbitt ‘10,and Ben Wiegandt ‘10 dug into theresearch, they discovered that the schoolcould make the project attractive for a part-ner to buy and install the panels, obtainingvaluable tax credits. They researched ven-dors, found optimum campus locations,and made presentations to the board oftrustees.
Then they graduated. And over the inter-vening years, potential partners came andwent. What could have easily faded into thewoodwork was kept alive by the shareddream and dedication of their teacher,Mary Pierce.
Now, thanks to finding a partner in MyGeneration Energy, Friends Academy hasmade the switch to solar power. Luke Hin-kle, a former high school science teacherand founder of My Generation, found local

investors to pay for the school’s panels inexchange for tax credit. Friends Academyalso receives an 18 percent discount for theenergy generated by solar power.
After seven years, Friends can buy thesolar panels back from the investors atwhich point the energy discount will expirebecause the school will own the installa-tion.
Head of School Stephen Barker notes thatbeyond saving the school money, “the pro-ject sets a great example about the impor-tance of living sustainably and doing ourpart to reduce the school’s carbon footprint.”
Barker also says that monitoring of the solarpanels will offer all kinds of applications inthe classroom. Students will be able to mon-itor the output and efficiency of the solarpanels and science teacher, Mary Pierce saysthat the curriculum possibilities related tothe project are important and limitless.
Last spring, the school marked the occa-sion by gathering on the field by the solarinstallation and watching as Mary Piercepresented the boys with sunglasses. Shethen had them flip a ceremonial switch tosignify the changeover to solar power. At theconclusion of ceremonies, students formeda giant sun and were photographed fromabove by a small, remote-controlled planeoutfitted with a Go-Pro camera.

With Newport one of the stopovers ofthe 2014-2015 Volvo Ocean Race due tostart off Alicante, Spain, this week, theorganizers of Volvo Ocean Race Newporthave created a classroom curriculum tobring the race home to local students.Focusing on geography and culture,marine science, math, and sustainability,lessons cut across all academic disci-plines.
Bristol resident Meris Enright has beenworking closely with Volvo Ocean RaceNewport developing parts of the mappingand geography curriculum.
A 5th grade teacher at Friends Academyin North Dartmouth, Enright is the wife ofCharlie Enright, skipper of team Alvimed-ica. Enright and his crew just won the firstAlicante In-port race. The race doesn’tcount toward the official result, but serves
as a great confidence builder for theyoung team.
Back on land, Meris Enright is taking asabbatical year so she can catch up withher husband at as many of the race’sstopovers as possible, including (in addi-tion to Newport and the start in Alicante)Cape Town, Abu Dhabi, China, Auckland,Brazil, Lisbon, France, and Sweden.
Meanwhile, her students at FriendsAcademy will be learning about boatdesign, latitude and longitude, speed, cur-rents, scale, mapping, and environmentalscience — and enjoying the reflected gloryof one degree of separation from one ofthe race’s key players.
Information about the race-related cur-riculum is available to anyone, accessibleunder the education tab at the websitevolvooceanracenewport.com.

Centers for Disease Control and Preven-tion, 11 percent of children had an ADHDdiagnosis in 2011, up from 7.8 percent in2003. More than half of those diagnosedwere taking some sort of ADHD medica-tion, such as Adderall and Ritalin.
With such large numbers of childrenusing drugs to treat their ADHD symp-toms, researchers (and parents) are look-ing into alternatives, and there is one rem-edy in particular that is showing demon-strated effectiveness: exercise.
Structured, pre-learning exercise isalready in place at one local school, andit’s paying dividends.
“Move to Learn” is a 15-30 minutemovement program, run by occupationaltherapists at the Wolf School in East Prov-idence.
According to Lise Faulise, a researchcoordinator at Wolf, movement thatinvolves heavy work, like climbing, or tug-of-war, works directly on a child’s neuro-logical physiology, simultaneously calm-ing, yet stimulating, in a way that increas-es alertness and a child’s ability to focus.
The effects are lasting, too: as long astwo hours from a 15-minute movementbreak. “Exercise acts as a natural pharma-cy, affecting endorphins, dopamine, andseratonin,” Faulise says. “Students are notonly better-regulated in the classroom,they sleep and eat better as well.”
Exercise breaks also reduce stress,which in turn improves working memoryand language acquisition.
Kelly McDonald, The occupational ther-apy supervisor at Wolf, acknowledges that
establishing a formalized movement pro-gram is easier in a school like Wolf, wherespecial programs are a part of the schoolculture, and occupational and speechtherapists are integrated into the class-room. Wolf specializes in teaching stu-dents with different learning styles andchallenges, many of whom have sensoryprocessing and language impairment.
But that doesn’t mean exercise breakswould not be beneficial to students inmainstream classrooms — particularly asgoals and standards continue to cut timeallocated to physical education andrecess.
Wolf students graduate after grade 8,and despite the challenges many bring tothe school, programs like “Move to Learn”ensure that many of them are prepared tomove on to top independent and publicschools.
“Wolf works because of our model,”McDonald said. “we see miracles everyday.”

Saujani reiterated Alexander’spoint in her talk to the Upper andMiddle Schools on September 23.“Our girls are tackling real prob-lems,” she said. “And we are usingtechnology to solve them andchange the world. We are literallybuilding a movement.”
Clearly it’s working. As SashaLandau ‘20 said, “we shoulddream big, work hard, and knowthat we can do anything we wantto and that no limits should be puton us because of our gender.”Lynn Villarica ‘18 added, “I didn’tthink I had the skill set to be acomputer programmer, but it’sjust like any other subject you
would learn in school, but better.You have to start by warming upto it, and eventually you may real-ize it’s your forte.” She continued,“It’s very fun to see everyone’s dis-belief when they hear I’m learningand passionate about computerprogramming,” since traditionallyit’s just “for boys.” When askedwhat she’d like to do with the skillsshe will gain from the Girls WhoCode Club, in the spirit of Lin-coln’s commitment to service, Vil-larica said “I’d definitely like tocreate something that makes adifference, something related tocultural awareness, world news,and civil rights issues.”
Alexander noted that at presentnearly 30 Lincoln students meeteach week for two hours afterschool, “learning loops, variables,algorithms, and how to weavethem together into programs.”

Bristol’s Charlie Enrightand the young crew ofAlvimedica set off on
their race around the globe today(Thursday) as the Volvo OceanRace set off from Alicante, Spain.
This first leg takes the seven-boat fleet of 65-footers 6,487miles to Cape Town, SouthAfrica.
First though, skipper Enrightguided Alvimedica to victory inSaturday’s In-Port Race aroundAlicante’s harbor.
Racing in much tighter quar-ters than what’s to come, Enrightsaid he was happy to take a con-servative approach.
“Try to stay out of trouble, thatwas the aim. We didn’t have thegreatest start but we wanted togive ourselves options. The pinend was really favored and wejust tried to avoid the clump andgive ourselves a chance. We tookour times on the maneuvers,tried to keep it simple, and kepton chipping away.”
TV commentator Knut Frostad,Volvo Ocean Race CEO and for-mer skipper, observed, “The guyson Alvimedica have probablybeen the most consistent on therace course so far today, sailingthe boat really well. They’re justin their 20s or early 30s, butthey’re showing real potential fordoing well in the Volvo OceanRace.”
“Surprised that we’re able todo well?,” he replied during thepress conference to follow. “Notthat much. We’ve had some goodpractice, the guys have beenworking really hard on maneu-vers, and we’re happy with thewin. We haven’t done anythingthat counts for the overall trophyyet, but it’s a confidence builder,it gives us the feeling that we cando well again.
Saturday’s action featuredwarm sunshine, cheering crowdsand nice shower, dinner and drybed waiting back on shore.
What starts Thursday will beanother thing entirely, recallsEast Bay sailor Ken Read.
“You’re hot, you’re cold. You’rewet, you’re sweaty. You’re tiredand you’re hungry. You don’t get alot of sleep and conditions aren’tfun,” said Read, three-time com-petitor in the the Volvo and for-mer America’s Cup sailor. “Butyou still love it and it draws youback. That’s why you see so manyguys doing this race over andover again.”
The race that starts Thursdaywill eventually bring the boatshere with a Newport stopoverscheduled for May.
There are lots of ways to followthe fleet.
Television: Weekly 30-minuteshows on NBC Sports Networkand Outside Television. NBCSNwill air the programs on weekendlate afternoons and Outside Tele-vision will cover the race everyMonday night at 10:30 p.m. withrepeats and extra coverage atOutsideTelevision.com.

Cat takes Humphrey RaceIn 36 years of racing in memo-
ry of sailor Bud Humphrey, thefleet has weathered windlessdrifters and howling nor’easters.
This year delivered something“What a day Sunday (Sept. 28).
Eighty-five degrees and 12 knotsof breeze out of the south,” saidTom Scott of the BarringtonYacht Club. “Unbelievable for thelast Sunday in September.”
And Lincoln Mossop III, SkipMattos and crew of the Swan 42The Cat Came Back took fulladvantage of the summer-likeconditions.
Starting last in the 69-boatstaggered-start pursuit race — 1hour and 7 minutes after a pair ofSea Sprites — Mossop started toreel in the fleet as they beat downthe west side of Prudence Islandbut did best on the return run upthe island’s east side toward theOhio Ledge finish west of ColtState Park. At times the big boatkept speed up by maintaining abroad reach zig-zag.
“Our best point of sail wasgoing north near Sandy Pointwhere we had good boat speedand the current was in our favor,”Mossop told North Sails. “Ourcrew has been sailing togetherconsistently and we have beenworking hard on boat speed,which I think made the differ-ence. We have a lot of fun sailingtogether.” Although he’s entereda number of times before, thiswas his first win.
Taking second place was thesecond-to-last boat to start,Shearwater, a Sidney 36 sailed byChris Bjerregaard. And complet-ing the top three Bristol sweepwas the Herreshoff S BoatSquaw, sailed by the sons/fatherteam of Matt, Jock and LeeHayes.
Other top finishers were:4. Coconut, Tom Dalbora5. Caneel, Chip Hawkins6. Flying High, Kevin Coughlin7. Larvik, Kim Anderson8. Mischief, David Schwartz9. Leonessa, Ray Deleo10.

Seems like everywhere youturn, someone else isgoing gluten free. Many
people say that they are avoidinggluten to behealthier. But inreality, there arevery few peoplewho actuallyneed to gogluten free forimprovedhealth.
Gluten is theprotein found in
wheat, rye, and barley. Peoplewith Celiac disease must avoidgluten for their entire livesbecause their body reacts nega-tively to this protein. There areother people who are glutenintolerant. This means they get
abdominal pain, diarrhea, bloat-ing, or constipation after eatinggluten because their body cannotprocess it correctly. Aside fromthese two situations, our bodiesare fully equipped to break downgluten without difficulty.
Some people say that avoidinggluten improves their migrainesor arthritis pains. This may bedue to decreased inflammationinside the body by decreasingintake of gluten. However, noteveryone finds symptom reliefwith a gluten free diet.
There is no scientific evidencethat shows avoiding gluten aidsin weight loss. In fact, manyproducts that are gluten freeactually have more calories thanthe regular version. And, lots ofgluten free foods are significantlymore expensive than regular ver-sions.
If you want to eat a healthierdiet while still eating gluten,focus on whole grains instead ofrefined grains. These includeoats, quinoa, barley, whole wheat,and brown rice. As always,including a variety of fruits, veg-etables, nuts, seeds, and lean pro-teins is the best base for a healthydiet.

RICK FARRELL, MOJO PHOTOGRAPHY
Capt. Ray Stachelek ofEast Greenwich is anexpert fly fishing guide
and at this time of year he spe-cializes in taking anglers saltwa-
ter fishing forfalse albacore,bonito andstriped bass.Last week Capt.Stachelek fishedwith Bruce Rickof Marlborough,Conn. Brucehooked up withand landed oneof the largest
false albacores that Capt. Rayhas ever encountered. Here’swhat Capt. Ray related.
“October 1 was windy, withplenty of chop, certainly notperfect conditions for fly castingbut it makes for frequent anddynamic Fat Albert (false alba-core) attacks.
Bruce Rich fought this fish forover twenty minutes in a ripovercoming strong currents. Atfirst I thought he was being gen-erous on its long runs with a softsetting of the drag. Not the casehere after checking his drag set-ting shortly after the battle.
This false albacore continuedto make strong runs, it nevereven came close to the boat. Therest of us had lunch and atesandwiches while this epic bat-tle lingered on. We must havedrifted almost two miles withthis massive fish from where itwas first hooked. Never in myentire career have I ever seen orlanded an albie (false albacore)so big in Rhode Island waters.
The markings and shape seemto be quite different from allothers we have caught in RhodeIsland waters over the decades.The linear lines along the dorsal,color, and slimmer profile, notfootball shape are quite differentfrom all others. (Wondering if)this is possible due to its larger
size stretching out its dorsal pat-terns or perhaps there differentstrains of these fish I’m notaware of.
Rich had a banner day andlifetime experience he’ll neverforget. At this point we took afew pictures, got her in the wateras soon as possible to cause theleast amount of harm and stressafter this epic battle. She earnedher freedom. We never mea-sured or weighed the fish. Let arecord just swim away. She hadour respect and fond memoriesto cherish forever.”
Pete Nilsen lands first false albacore
Noted local fly fisherman andauthor Peter Nilsen of Barring-ton landed his first false alba-core this year. Peter is presidentof Rhody Fly Rodders. Here ishis account of a trip he tookwith Dave Pollack. “We were outwith Capt. Ray Stachelek a fewweeks ago. We fished along the‘walls’ at Pt. Judith. The fishingwas fast and furious in first partof the morning with me catchingmy first ever albie. I caught threealtogether along with threesmall bass. All with the fly rod.
One of the albies was about tenpounds and I thought he wasgoing to Block Island, he almostspooled me. Wow, they are fastand strong.”
Trigger fish could be infectedBob Quigley of North Scituate
e-mailed me Friday about graytriggerfish. Although tasty toeat, gray triggerfish could createciguatera, a food borne illness,in humans. According toWikipedia, reef fish such as trig-gerfish may have flesh contami-nated with toxins originally pro-duced by dinoflagellates such asGambierdiscus toxicus whichlive in tropical and subtropicalwaters. These dinoflagellatesadhere to coral, algae and sea-
weed where they are eaten byherbivorous fish who in turn areeaten by large carnivorous fish.The ciguatera illness can becaused by eating other reef fishtoo such as grouper, snapper,amberjacks, barracudas, trigger-fish and others.
Where’s the biteStriped bass fishing is still slow
at Block Island during the daywith somewhat of a night bite.Fishing is picking up for bass inthe Bay a bit. “School bass arebeing caught in the ProvidenceRiver.” said John Littlefield ofArchie’s Bait & Tackle, Riverside.“Smaller bass are around andkeepers are being caught in the
Bay but they are dispersed allover… around Halfway Rock,Hope Island and at Bear Point,Prudence Island.” said Ken Fer-rara of Ray’s Bait & Tackle, War-wick.
Tautog fishing is just startingto pick up. “A lot of shorts arebeing caught in the Bay.” saidLittlefield. Al Conti of Snug Har-bor Marine, South Kingstown,said, “Shore anglers have a bet-ter chance of catching keepertautog than boat angles at thispoint as the fish have not movedto deeper water yet. Last week acharter boat caught their limitfishing the wall inside the Har-bor of Refuge... and from shorethe rocks at Moonstone Beachand off the Ocean Mist inMatunuck are yielding fish.” Fer-rara said, “Everything is behinda couple of weeks. The water isstill fairly warm as it cools fish-ing is getting better. It is juststarting. We did weigh in a cou-ple of nine pound fish lastweek.” “The tautog bite is notstrong yet. Fish that are beingcaught from the bridges in War-ren and Barrington, from theWharf Tavern and AmericanTourister are mostly shorts. Butkeeper fish have been caught offNewport, Wickford, at FortAdams and Beavertail,Jamestown.” said Littlefield. Thisweekend Don Smith of WestWarwick fished with his wife andson at General Rock, NorthKingstown. John said, “My sonfell asleep, hooked up with atautog and the rod went over-board. When making ready toleave we noticed a fishing linecaught on the anchor line… thefishing rod was attached to theline and on the other end a fourplus pound tautog.”
Sea bass/scup/flounder are allbeing caught in the bay, at BlockIsland and along the southerncoastal shore. The scup bite isgood now at the Warren andBarrington bridges, in the bayand off southern coastal shores.“Scup fishing slowed down withthe bad weather but picked upagain this weekend at Colt StatePark at the Barrington and War-ren Bridges” said Littlefield. Theblack sea bass bite is still goodin the bay and off Pt. Judith.Some summer flounder at stillbeing caught by the Newportand Jamestown Bridges,” saidFerrara.
False albacore and bonito bitecontinues to be strong withshore and boat anglers bothlanding fish. “Shore anglers arehooking up with fish at theCharlestown Breachway and theWest Wall of the Harbor ofRefuge with boat anglers landingfish all along the southerncoastal shore.” said Conti.Reports have been coming inthat fish were off Newport aswell.
Captain Dave Monti has beenfishing and shell fishing onNarragansett Bay for over 40years. He holds a captain’smaster license and a charterfishing license. Visit CaptainDave’s No Fluke website atnoflukefishing.com or e-mailhim at dmontifish@verizon.net.

With the number of U.S. Alzheimer’spatients expected to climb to 13 millionover the next 35 years, the search is on tofind a reliable diagnostic test. Until veryrecently, there have only been clinicaltests that help detect fairly advancedcases, and current biological markers ofearly disease (proteins in spinal fluid, MRIscans of the brain, and brain PET amyloidimaging) are fairly inaccurate, invasive,and expensive. However, breakthroughresearch has revealed that a simple eyescan may uncover the earliest signs ofAlzheimer’s disease. By identifyingbuildups of proteins (beta-amyloid“plaques”) in the eye that are similar tothose that collect in the brains ofAlzheimer’s patients, doctors can detectthis most common form of dementia.
As today’s column suggests, a simple
eye test may aid in the early detection ofAlzheimer's disease even before memoryloss and other symptoms develop. Ourfacility is designed to provide total eyecare. We utilize state-of-the-art instru-mentation to ensure our patients’ visualwell being. Good vision and healthy eyesare your greatest assets throughout yourlife. We’re located at 24 BosworthStreet, Barrington Shopping Center,Barrington, where we strive to achieveexcellence in client satisfaction. Pleasecall 247-2015 to schedule an appoint-ment.
P.S. The eyes are essentially an exten-sion of the brain, which is why and howthe “plaques” associated with Alzheimer’sdisease may travel from the brain throughthe optic nerve to the eyes.

T he baseball playoffshave been a bit of asnooze — literally. Try
as a I might I cannot seem tostay awake forgames played infar away stadi-ums betweenteams I have lit-tle interest in.The Dodgers areprobably themost interest-ing to mebecause their
lineup is filled with former RedSox. I did have to feel a tingebadly for Detroit since theyfailed to beat the Orioles in theALDS (yes, the Orioles!) despitehaving the best pitching in theleague, great hitters and goodchances to win in every game.They just didn’t take advantageof their opportunities.
I am hoping that Rhode Islandvoters are paying a little moreattention to the “down ballot”races than I am to the baseballplayoffs. While some races couldbe snoozers, this is the once-every-four-years opportunity toelect the five people who runour state, so I am hopeful thatvoters will spend a few minutesto educate themselves on their
choices. While Rhode Island isone of the most heavily Democ-ratic states in the country, thefact that our general officers arenot elected the same year as thePresidential candidates meansthat less people vote.
These off-year elections maybe the reason why Rhode Islandhas only elected Republican (orthose who had at one pointbeen Republican) governorssince the first four year term waswon by Lincoln Almond in 1994,because conservative voterstend to show up to vote moreregularly. While each race has astory and some begin and endwith bad Democratic campaignsor fractured primaries, the truthis that this year could be a goodone for Republicans.
With the emphasis onwomen’s candidates, I thinkCatherine Taylor may be thebeneficiary of this Republicanripple (too small to be a wave)as she has run a very good cam-paign with a sharp focus onissues and bipartisanship.Catherine cut her political teethas a staffer to Senator JohnChafee in Washington and mostrecently worked for Governor
Opportunity awaits in off yearL et’s get this straight from
the beginning: BishopThomas Tobin has every
right — if not a responsibility —to criticize a Catholic whoespouses a position on contra-ception and/or abortion con-trary to the church’s teachings.
LaSalle Acade-my, a Catholichigh school inProvidence, alsohas the preroga-tive to removesomeone fromits Wall of Nota-bles, which itdid recentlywith gubernato-
rial candidate and alumnae,Gina Raimondo, whose pro-choice views are apparentlyanathema to the school’s princi-ples. What I take issue with, ofcourse, is the inherent sexismand lack of initial evenhanded-ness when the males whoespouse similar views were lefthanging on the wall. After a fewdays of befuddlement, Lasalleleaders finally got it right byhanging them out to dry.
Senator Jack Reed was a casein point. His views on reproduc-tive matters are contrary tochurch teachings, as is his sup-port of gay marriage. In lookingat the Notables list, I noted 3political operatives, Tad Devine,Mike Donilon and Terry
Donilon, who were high-rankingmembers of the Biden-Obamacampaigns. They essentiallyworked to elect leaders whowould keep the so-called repro-ductive freedoms intact. InCatholic theology this is theequivalent of being an aider andabettor, which is equally ver-boten.
I wonder just how serious thelist is anyway, since it is domi-nated by political purveyors andjocks. There was at least aPulitzer Prize winner on thewall, thank heavens, but theMother Theresas of the worldaren’t being held out as rolemodels to the student body. So,as silly as the whole idea is tome, nonetheless, I find it offen-sive that Gina had to go initiallywhile the men remained.
This double standard broughtme back to the days when I wascampaigning for Attorney Gen-eral. I was pro-choice, as wasClaudine Schneider and SusanFarmer. None of us were able tomarch in any Church proces-sions, while our male politicalcounterparts who shared thesame views were allowed, theirheads piously bowed and handsfolded. These pro-choice menwere Catholic while poor SusanFarmer, who wasn’t, was ostra-cized anyway for not subscrib-ing to a religious viewpoint of achurch that wasn’t even hers.
Misogynist attitudes reignedthen, and not much haschanged in the last 30 years.
LaSalle’s principal took onegiant step forward by takingdown the wall of notables, buthe is now poised to make anoth-er huge error by inducting for-mer Rhode Island Housing andMortgage Finance Corporation(RHMFC) executive directorRalph Pari into its Hall of Fame.As the Attorney General in themid-80’s, my grand jury investi-gated the corruption of thatagency under his watch. He wassent to the slammer for 14months for embezzlement andobstruction of justice. Theagency was a private “piggybank” for low interest loans tojudges, bank president’s parents,politicians, connected opera-tives and others of this ilk, all ofwhom raided the program formortgages. Because they signedpaperwork that they “thought”they might qualify for the loanand “thought” they’d live in thehouse (as opposed to flippingthe property in a sale) theycouldn’t be prosecuted. Mr. Parihad deleted the former provi-sion on the application thatmade it perjury to assert thesefalse claims. To induct him is asham.
How about getting it rightagain, LaSalle leaders!
LaSalle Academy almost gets it right

Martin’s Garden Notes
Prepare your garden for Winter
Give your lawn a great boost for the winter and a head start for the spring by fer-tilizing with a fall fertilizer. These fertilizers are especially formulated to encourag-ing a strong root system. They also have a timed release component so the fertilizeris still feeding into next spring.
If you have applied lime in some time it may be wise to test your soil to see howmuch you need to apply. You can stop by the store to pick up an order form to sendoff with your soil samples.
Spring flowering bulbs are always a great addition to the garden. Apply bulb foodwith them to help them come back stronger every year. Avoid using bone meal as itmay attract animals, especially skunks. One interesting fact our Dutch Bulb salesmanmentioned is that tulips like a high pH so a little dusting of lime when you plantthem will help a lot. Roses can be allowed to bloom into early winter and then onlycut back a little. Climbers should be just tied back to their supports. Further pruningcan be done in early April. I have had good sucess protecting roses with a cylinder oftar paper tied arround the plants with a couple of shovel fulls of compost piledaround the crown. Do this after we have had a good frost and the plants have losttheir leaves.
Q. I thought that maybe youcould help me uncover somefacts about this chair we are
restoring for acustomer. It’s abeauty and itappears from itsconstruction tobe about 100years old. Wewould love toshare someinteresting factsabout it with
our customer. A. This chair is what would be
referred to as a “salon chair” andit is closer to 175 years old. Amer-ican made in the mid 1800’s, thischair is in what would be referredto as “Empire” style. The“Empire”, “Regency”, or “Neoclas-sical” style originated in France inthe early 19th century. It is associ-ated with and named for France’sFirst Empire created by NapoleonBonaparte who also made him-self the first emperor. Napoleoncommissioned pieces of particu-lar grandeur using icons to asso-ciate his reign with the glory ofancient Rome and Egypt. Theseincluded clusters of arrows,winged beasts, and his signatureicons which included the bee, alaurel wreath, and grand eagles.Napoleon’s empress, Josephine,had her own signature icon – theswan. These pieces became pop-ular and the styles were oftencopied.
Furniture of this style is heavyand grand but it has lots of curvesand carving. The original Frenchpieces were primarily made frommahogany and fruitwoods. Amer-ican Empire pieces mostly have adark walnut or mahogany stainand many pieces are not solidwood but have wood veneer. Thischair has a carved swan head andlong neck for arms. The ball and
claw has with defined tendons,and scrolled carving leads to aneagle-like head.
Dark, heavy pieces are not verytrendy in today’s marketplace andthere is a large inventory ofAmerican Empire pieces to behad for bargain prices. I am surewith restoration this chair willmake a grand statement.

Vetting a romanticpartner can be toughwhen you’re already
committed
BY K RIS ROTO N DAIf you’re single and on the
market, you probably know atleast two things: Online dating isan efficient way to find a poten-tial partner, but dating sitesdon’t always guarantee a greatmatch.
According to the Pew ResearchCenter, 23 percent of peoplewho went on a date through amatch-making site say it result-ed in a long-term relationship.“Really, that’s not a bad successrate. I imagine it beats the clubscene,” says Kris Rotonda,founder and CEO of YouMust-LoveDogsDating.com, a websitedevoted to singles who’vealready found their canine com-panions, but have yet to findtrue human love.
“Still, that’s a lot of scrollingand dating before you find theright one. I think it’s importantto narrow the search by lettingusers start with what’s mostimportant to them.”
Rotonda, who has fourbeloved dogs including one he’shad since age 8, says his com-mitment to his furry familybecame a problem in his datinglife. He’s happy to report he hasnow found true love – she loveshis dogs and they love her back.
What should you do if yourdog doesn’t appear to like thenew love interest in your life?
! Your dog reacted negativelyto a girl or guy you really like.
Of course, how your dog reactsmatters if you love your dog, buthe or she may be picking up onsomething that’s nonessential tothe character of your date, whomay be nervous, not used todogs or simply wearing thewrong perfume or cologne thatday. While dogs are very intuitive– and, you want your caninecompanion to get along with apotential long-term partner –realize that the chemistry canimprove. Give it a little time andproactively look for ways to helpyour dog and your potential loveinterest relax and get to knoweach other.
! Different reactions canhave different meanings.
Did she bark for several min-utes? Did he run and hide under
the bed? If your dog barked inwhat sounded like a hostile oraggressive way, she’s likely justtrying to protect you. While youmay have had plenty of time toget to know your date over longdinners, he or she may still be astranger to your dog. If your dogran and hid, he may be afraid.That doesn’t necessarily meanthat his fear reflects a real threat– something rotten about yournew love interest. What else wasgoing on at the time? If a planewas flying overhead or thunderrumbling outside, that may havebeen the source of anxiety. Don’ttry to pet or sweet talk your petwhile he’s in hiding as that willencourage the behavior. Instead,reward him when he emerges.
! Mend fences between yourcanine and human companion.
When you are planning to re-introduce your dog to your date,start before they actually meetin person. This can be done byintroducing the person’s scentwith an unwashed article ofclothing. You can also add yourscent to the clothing by rubbingit on your arm and then placingin a spot where your dog spendsa great deal of time. This will
help your dog get used to theperson’s scent over time and youare not introducing the personto your dog by invading all hissenses at one time.
Kris Rotonda is the founder andCEO ofYouMustLoveDogsDating.com, awebsite devoted to singleswho’ve already found theircanine companions, but haveyet to find true human love.Rotonda, a competitive bodybuilder and successful realestate agent, had experienced anumber of unexpectedchallenges as a bachelor anddog owner and saw the need fora dating site geared toward like-minded dog lovers.

BY DR. LYNN ANNE EVANSDear Dr. Evans,Petunia has been an only cat
all her life. Due to a recent pro-motion (yay!), I’m gone fromhome a lot. I’m thinking ofadopting a kitty to keep hercompany. What do you think?Good idea, or, excuse the pun,catastrophe?
—The More the Merrier?
Dear More,Oh, my. You are about to rock
Petunia’s world. But maybe in agood way.
Unlike dogs, cats are not natu-rally pack animals. They toler-ate solitude very well; in fact, asingle cat can thrive with adegree of neglect that wouldbreak a dog’s heart (not that I’madvocating neglecting Petunia!And she probably wouldn’tstand for it, anyway). It’s beensaid that five minutes of interac-tion a day is all that a cat needsto be content. That’s setting thebar pretty low, but if commit-ments keep you from homemore than they used to, youdon’t need to feel guilty as longas you care for her basic needs(scoop that box daily, no matterhow busy you get) and give herlovin’ in the form she likes best— petting, playing, brushing —as often as you can.
All this is to say that I wouldn’tnecessarily add a feline com-panion for Petunia’s sake, but foryour own. From her point ofview, it’s a crapshoot. When youadd a new kitty, you couldpotentially be adding a wholenew layer of contentment to herlife. A younger cat or kitten canenliven an older, complacentcat, and it can be all to the good.
Lots of play, cuddling, purringand spooning could ensue. Socould, of course, lots of hissing,scratching, howling and chas-ing. Petunia might feel delight-ed; she might feel threatened.The good news is that most cats,even if less than thrilled witheach other, manage to tolerateeach other from a distance.
Some practical tips: first, besure to quarantine the new kittyfor three weeks, so you can besure he or she isn’t incubatingany illness that Petunia cancatch. Let them get used toeach other with a door betweenthem. That way, Petunia has achance to adjust to the soundsand scents of a newbie (ofcourse, while she’s adjusting,you’re spoiling the heck out ofher, right?). Supervise when youallow them to be together. Makesure there are plenty of nooksand crannies for hissed-off kit-ties to hide in when they’re notin the mood to interact. Be sureto be scrupulous about the lit-terboxes, because an annoyedcat will often make her displea-sure known by nailing the flooror your shoes. And by the way,you’ll need to pick up a fewmore litterboxes. It’s a good ruleof thumb that you should haveone more box than you havecats.
So if you’re ready for a newfriend, go for it. Just don’t do itfor Petunia.Dr. Lynn Anne Evans of theBarrington Veterinary Clinic hasbeen practicing veterinarymedicine for 26 years. Do youhave a pet question for Dr.Evans? Please emaillife@eastbaynewspapers.com,with “Dr. Evans” in the subjectline.

In 2006, approximately 4.1 mil-lion people went to the doctor’soffice for rotator cuff problems. Togive you some perspective, that’s 4injuries per year for every man,woman, and child in the entire stateof Rhode Island! Chances are, you’vemet someone who either has thisinjury or has received treatment inthe past.
The rotator cuff is comprised of 4small muscles which help move theshoulder and provide stability foryour upper arm bone. A rotator cuffinjury can vary from dull to sharppain, with associated arm weaknessand loss of daily function. This injuryis very common in overhead ath-letes, repetitive motions linked tooccupations (carpentry, painting), orin elderly patients using their arm tobreak a fall.
Rotator cuff tendonitis (RCT) isinflammation of the tendons thatattach the muscles to the humerus.The muscles occupy a small spacebetween the acromion process ofthe scapula and the head of thehumerus. Poor posture, repetitiveoverhead activities, overuse and dis-use can cause RCT. Impingementresults when the inflammationcauses the tendons and bursa to bepinched by the bones. Commonsymptoms are pain with overheadactivities, pain over the outside ofthe shoulder and upper arm and dif-ficulty sleeping.
Ice and rest are initiated todecrease the inflammation. Youmay also be instructed to avoidoverhead activities such as pitch-ing/throwing, swimming the crawlstroke, overhead weight lifting etc.Your physical therapist will perform
a thorough evaluation and establisha plan for your recovery. The plan ofcare will be based on goals you andyour therapist establish. The planmay include stretching, passiverange of motion, strengthening andmodalities, and a home exercise pro-gram. Research indicates ultra-sound, electrical stimulation or lasertherapy aid in the healing processand decrease pain.
Being discharged from physicaltherapy does not mean you nolonger need to exercise. It is impor-tant to continue with your individu-alized home exercise program tomaintain strength and ROM.
The tendons can also be torn. Apartial or full rupture can occur.This does not mean that surgery isnecessary. A complete tear will notrepair itself. However, strengthen-ing of the muscles in and around theshoulder can reduce symptoms andincrease range of motion negatingthe need for surgery. You shouldseek the advice of an orthopedistand a physical therapist to deter-mine the best course of action foryour recovery. There is recent evi-dence demonstrating that manypeople with a partial or full RTCtear can recover without surgery.
Here at McVay physical therapywe have successfully treatedpatients with full and partial rotatorcuff tears successfully.
