Memorial to honor Dr. Manuel da Silva

Friends of the late Dr. ManuelL. da Silva are completing plansfor a life-size bronze bust honor-ing the physician and civicleader. A public fundraisingcampaign was launched thisweek under the direction ofcommittee chairman Fred M.Pacheco, who was a close friendof the doctor.

The life-size bust will be locat-ed in Mosaico Park at the south-east corner of Franklin andWood Streets. Target date fordedication is the Fourth of Julyweekend.

“This is a most fitting tributeto Dr. da Silva, who resided andpracticed medicine in Bristol forover 40 years,” said Mr. Pacheco.“He made a great many contri-butions of a humanitarian and acultural nature to the communi-ty.”

“He was a great doctor andgained a great deal of knowledgein many fields, but most impor-tant he was a great philan-thropist,” Mr. Pacheco said.

“I used to call him a “walkingsaint” because many times hewould practice medicine with-out charging a cent, treating so

many people who did not haveinsurance or money.”

The monument’s location wasapproved last month by town

officials, and its design is nearlycomplete.

The bronze bust is being cre-ated by artist Cynthia Whalen

Nelson, a Narragansett residentand graduate of the RI School ofDesign. She has worked closelywith the committee in duplicat-ing Dr. da Silva’s likeness. Thebronze casting will be done by awell-known foundry in Chelsea,Mass.

The life-size bust will featureDr. da Silva from the waist up,wearing a doctor’s smock. Adescriptive plaque will read“Physician, Historian, Author,and Humanitarian.”

Regarding the location of themonument at Wood andFranklin Streets, Mr. Pachecosaid “It is a great location. It ishighly visible and quite a busyarea. The park is located wheremany Portuguese people resideand it is a symbol of the friend-ship between Bristol and Portu-gal.”

The park features a sittingarea with park benches and amosaic design at ground leveldepicting a Portuguese sailingvessel. The stones for this scenewere donated to the Town ofBristol by the Town of Lagoa onSan Miguel in the Azores.

Despite some unknowns in the town’s prop-erty revaluation, the Bristol Town Councilunanimously approved a provisional budgetfor fiscal year 2014-2015, setting the totalamount at $53,785,701.

The provisional budget calls for a tax rateincrease of $0.35 per thousand, going from thecurrent $12.80 to the proposed $13.15.

This year, there were no across the boardsalary increases for non-union town employ-ees. The Enterprise Fund accounts for$5,034,077 of the budget.

After weeks of discussions and fine tuning ofthe Bristol fiscal 2015 budget, it was the revalu-

ation snafu that had Town Treasurer JulieGoucher, Town Administrator Tony Teixeira,and the members of the town council scram-bling to remedy.

By state law, property revaluations are to beconducted by cities and towns every threeyears. However, Clipboard, the company hiredto conduct Bristol’s revaluation, returned whatthe town council and administration per-ceived as inconsistent data. In order to moveforward with the budget, the town is using taxrevenue based on the Dec. 31, 2012 valuationwhile appealing to the Rhode Island GeneralAssembly to allow them an extension on thethree-year revaluation.

“We’ll assume it will pass. If it doesn’t, we’ll

have to come back and do this again,” saidTown Council Chairwoman Mary Parella.

The town already paid Clipboard $144,500 toconduct the revaluation, and has paid an addi-tional $10,000 to consultants to fix the prob-lems in Clipboard’s data.

A public hearing on the budget will be heldon Thursday, May 22 at 7 p.m. in Town Hall.Immediately following the public hearing, thetown council will vote on adopting the finalbudget.

The final details of the budget were beingupdated after Tuesday night’s meeting, but asof press time, neither Mr. Teixeira nor Ms.Goucher were available to provide thosedetails.

In a tale that demonstrates howlove can transcend social barriers,the Bristol Theater Company isfinishing up their rehearsals for“Once on This Island,” a one-actmusical written by Lynn Ahrens.

The production is directed byBruce Lackey, a 41-year veteran incommunity theater, and is the firstfor him as a member of the BristolTheater Company.

When he joined the group inJanuary, he was impressed by thecompany’s approach to theater.

“I’ve worked with several the-ater companies,” he said. The BTCis “very professional,” he said.

Coming into the group, the 24-member cast, ranging in agesfrom 7 to 60, was already set forMr. Lackey who began the task ofputting the production together inlate January. After three rehearsalseach week, the cast and crew areexcited to be presenting the per-formance in their current home atthe former Reynolds School.

“Traditionally, this show is donewith an African-American cast,”Mr. Lackey said of the island set-ting. But the story, he said, isn’tone of race; it’s one of breakingdown barriers, be it race, socio-

economic status or any number ofprejudices that affect people’s per-ceptions.

“I think a lot of people are goingto leave the show feeling good,” hesaid. “The cast seems very suitedfor their roles and give strong per-formances.”

Nearly 60 people auditioned forthe show, mostly coming from theEast Bay and southeastern Massa-chusetts to take part in the BristolTheater Company.

With only two weeks before theopening of the show on May 16,actors, musicians, costumedesigners and set crews weremaking their final preparations,glad to have such a theater spaceavailable to them. In the past, theBTC would be looking for a perfor-mance space for each production,and while this is their second pro-duction in the High Street venue,they hope that it will become theirtheatrical home.

“We are very happy to be here,”said board of directors member,Marie Knapman.

The BTC will present “Once onThis Island” in three shows, Fri-day, May 16 and Saturday, May 17at 7 p.m., and Sunday, May 18 at 2p.m. Tickets are $15 for generaladmission and $10 for children

under 10 years of age and seniors.For information, contact the BTCat 424-1315.

February vacation willremain — at least for

one more year

BY PAT RIC K LUC Epluce@eastbaynewspapers.com

Nearly 100 people crowded intothe Mt. Hope High School cafeteriaMonday night to show their sup-port for Kickemuit Middle SchoolPrincipal Beth Hayes, who thecommittee voted to keep in herposition for another year.

Ms. Hayes, who has been princi-pal for nearly two years, was up forreview as her current contractexpires at the end of this schoolyear. There had been talk amongsome committee members ofmoving on to another principal,prompting the outpouring of sup-port at Monday’s meeting.

The School Committee ultimate-ly decided to retain Ms. Hayes,emerging from executive session toapprove her reappointment withno discussion. The cafeteria erupt-ed in applause as the audiencegave Ms. Hayes a standing ovation.Only School Committee memberKaren Lynch voted against theappointment.

In other business Monday, theSchool Committee voted to delayimplementing a change to the aca-demic calendar that would havevirtually wiped out February vaca-

tion next year. Instead, the tradi-tional calendar — including Febru-ary and April vacations — willremain.

The committee had previouslyasked Superintendent MelindaThies to propose a new calendarthat lessens vacation days duringthe year to protect against schoolcancellations for snow and hurri-cane days that can potentially push

the school year deep into June.Thies proposed keeping April vaca-tion, but adding three school daysto the February vacation, book-ended by two three-day weekends.

“I think its time has come,” Thiessaid of the vacation change. “In thelast several years, we’ve had hurri-cane days and snow days that havereally impacted our ability to holdinstructional days. We want to opti-

mize instructional time at keytimes — and that’s not really at theend of the year.”

While not opposing a futurechange outright, Bristol WarrenEducational Association PresidentMichelle Way DaSilva, told thecommittee teachers and parentsneed more time to adjust to thechange. Many may have alreadyscheduled vacations or timeshares

for next February. Furthermore,having a different educational cal-endar in Bristol and Warren than inthe rest of the state’s districts couldpose a childcare problem forteachers who live outside the dis-trict.

“People need time to adjust tochange,” Ms. Way DaSilva said. “Ifthey have two years to changeplans, that’s another story.”

Ms. Way DaSilva also said the cal-endar switch could be a hardshipfor students, who need the break torefresh and prepare for the rest ofthe school year.

“Between Christmas and Febru-ary doesn’t sound like a long time,but to them it is,” she told the com-mittee. “They need something.They need to go home, rechargeand come back ready.”

While the committee put offchanging the calendar this year,students who cherish both Febru-ary and April vacations may disap-pointed in the state’s plans. Thestate is considering changing thecalendar for all school districts,eliminating one vacation afterChristmas, Thies said. The changeis likely to take effect for the 2015-2016 school year.

“There seems to be support formodifying the calendar across thestate,” Thies said. “There’s a good,strong educational basis for doingit.”

ed with a grant seven years ago, the pro-gram has expanded beyond Mt. HopeHigh School to include the middleschool, and will soon add an elementaryschool aspect. The performing arts pro-gram has also expanded in Ms. Thies’time, including individual instructionon specific instruments, also helped bygrant funding. Going forward, she saidshe hopes a pilot program to expandhigh school education through intern-ships and real-world experience willcontinue to expand.

Ms. Thies said she is proud that theschool district has not had to cut pro-grams in the face of diminishing stateeducation funding. Much of the credit,she said, goes to the faculty and staff,and their willingness to sacrifice for thegood of students. Ms. Thies has over-seen three contracts with no payincreases in her time.

“I can leave with the knowledge thatin seven years I have been here, we real-ly have accomplished great things forstudents,” Thies said. “We’ve had great

accomplishments, and we’ve done it ina fiscally responsible manner.”

Ms. Thies acknowledged that a super-intendent is often in a position of havingto go against the grain and make thedecision she feels is best for the schooldistrict — sometimes despite popularopinion — especially where financialsare involved.

“I haven’t always made the populardecisions,” Ms. Thies told the crowd ofnearly 100 at Monday’s committeemeeting. “I’ve always been suspicious ofpopularity. Popularity has brought usmood rings. Popularity has brought usreality TV. Popularity has brought usJustin Bieber. Quality is what counts,not necessarily popularity. Our moral,ethical, professional obligation is toprovide you with quality.”

Teachers are the key to providing thatquality, Ms. Thies said, thanking thosewho have educated students during herreign.

“Teachers are the ones who makethings happen,” she said. “They put thestudents before themselves. I want tothank my admin team and especiallymy teachers.”

Mt. Hope High School students planning toattend the junior prom on May 16 can goahead and schedule their hair and nailappointments for early afternoon that day.

The Bristol Warren Regional School Com-mittee voted 7-2 Monday night to allow stu-dents attending the dance to leave schoolbefore last period to give them time to pre-pare for the big night. Students lobbied theschool committee for a policy change earlierthis winter, saying they needed more time offin the afternoon to get ready for the dance.Previously, students who want to go to theprom must attend a full day of school thatday. If students are dismissed early, it had tobe for a valid reason, such as a medical orlegal appointment.

“From a girl’s point of view, by the time youget out of the senior parking lot, and peoplewho live in Warren get home by 3, or 3:30,(prom preparations) are more rushed than itshould be,” student Morgan Chaves told theschool committee earlier this year.

Students generally leave school at 2:30p.m., which would leave only a couple hoursto prepare before the dance. Pictures beforethe dance start around 4:30, students notedto the committee.

The early dismissal applies only to thejunior prom this year, scheduled for Friday,May 16 at the Atlantic Beach Club in New-port. The senior prom is scheduled for Satur-day, May 31 at the Hyatt hotel in Newport.Saturdays are rare for proms because it isgenerally more expensive to schedule avenue on a Saturday night, precipitating thestudents’ request.

Most school committee members voicedsupport for the policy, which is being imple-mented on a trial basis this year. It will be tiedto academic and behavioral standards.“Make it a real incentive to leave early,”school committee member Diana Campbellsaid.

Marjorie McBride was the only committeemember to voice disagreement Monday. “Idon’t think there’s any excuse for leavingschool early,” she said.

Existing service, newcompetitor vying for lease

that expires June 14

BY JI M M C G AWjmcgaw@eastbaynewspapers.com

Prudence Island Ferry’s leasefor the Town of Bristol’s dockexpires in less than seven weeks,yet it’s still unclear what ferry ser-vice will be using the landinggoing forward.

Both Prudence Island Ferryowner Bruce Medley and a com-peting service, A&R MarineCorp., have been talking withBristol officials in hopes of secur-ing a contract to use the dock.The current lease with Mr. Med-ley, who sold the Thames Streetdock and parking lot to the Townof Bristol last year for $800,000,expires June 14.

The Bristol Town Council wasexpected to take the issue up atits regular meeting Wednesday,April 30 (after this paper’s dead-line), although it was unclearwhether any action would betaken at that time.

In February A&R Marine Corp.,doing business as Prudence &Bay Islands Transport, was grant-ed a conditional certificate ofpublic convenience and necessi-

ty (CPCN) from the R.I. Divisionof Public Utilities and Carriers tooperate a ferry between Bristol,Prudence Island and Hog Island.That puts it in direct competitionwith the existing Prudence IslandFerry, which has been the soleprovider of ferry service since themid-’80s. (The existing servicedoes not extend to Hog Island.)

In submitting its required ini-tial rate application with the R.I.Public Utilities Commission(PUC), A&R expressed confi-dence that it would have a leasefrom Bristol for the docking facil-ity as of June 15.

“Upon information and belief,A&R believes that the existingPrudence Ferry, Inc. will proba-bly not be operating after June14, 2014 …” Michael R. McElroy,attorney for A&R Marine Corp.,stated in the April 16 letter toPUC.

On Monday, Mr. Medley saidhe doesn’t know where thatinformation came from, addinghe had a “handshake agreement”for a five-year lease extensionwith the Town of Bristol.

“We had a meeting with theBristol town administrator (TonyTeixeira) two weeks ago. We hadlengthy meeting and we dis-cussed the terms, how much it

was going to cost us per foot, andso forth. We had an agreementand he was going to take it to thecouncil meeting,” said Mr. Med-ley.

But later on Monday, afterspeaking with Mr. Teixeira, Mr.Medley said he was confused asto where he actually stood withthe town.

“He said the town solicitor hasadvised them not to make anagreement with me because PUChas not decided who exactly willhave the service to Bristol. Myreaction to that is, ‘What?’ saidMr. Medley. “I did tell Tony, if Iknew I was going to be blind-sided by this when I sold you thedock, I never would have.”

Mr. Teixeira said he was direct-ed to have conversations withboth Prudence Island Ferry andA&R Marine. The talks with Mr.Medley revolved around whetherPrudence Island Ferry wouldpropose a one-year or five-yearlease, “but there was no commit-ment,” he said Monday.

Mr. Teixeira was expected topresent the nature of his conver-sations with the two companiesto the Bristol Town CouncilWednesday night. The councilmay act, or may request furtherstudy of each company’s propos-

al, before the town issues a con-tract for the dock.

Mr. Medley said whatever Bris-tol decides, the company thatdoesn’t get the Thames Streetdock lease will still have otheroptions to explore.

Prudence Island landingFor its landing on Prudence,

A&R Marine is trying to work outa deal with the Town ofPortsmouth to lease town-ownedproperty adjacent to Mr. Med-ley’s dock at Homestead. ThePortsmouth Town Council Mon-day night met in executive ses-sion to discuss the ferry issueunder the section of state lawthat allows private talks “relatedto possible disposition of publicheld property wherein advancedpublic information would bedetrimental to the interest of thepublic,” according to the agenda.

Mr. Medley said A&R Marineinitially approached him to buyhis landing at Homestead.“That’s not in the cards,” he said.

For various reasons, Mr. Med-ley expressed skepticism thatA&R Marine would be ready foroperations by June 15.

“That’s Type-1 waters, You can’tdredge or build a commercialdock,” he said, noting that his

company is grandfathered inbecause the site has been usedfor a ferry landing “since the1920s.” He also said A&R Marinewill have to go through the R.I.Coastal Resources ManagementCouncil and the U.S. Army Corpsof Engineers.

As for his competitor’s boat —A&R Marine announced lastmonth that it had a pending saleagreement for the 112-foot M/VHerbert C. Bonner, originallybuilt by the North Carolina ferrysystems — Mr. Medley said hedoubts it will be ready by June 15.

“The boat is not here. It needs tobe totally re-gauged and restruc-tured if it can be done at all,” saidMr. Medley, noting that the Bon-ner weights 200 gross tons. “Itneeds to be completely cut apartand refigured to cut it down to 100tons or less. That boat, you have toback it into the skip. Will that actu-ally fit into our slip in Bristol?”

In his opinion, it will be toocostly and there’s not enoughtime to get it done by June 15.

On Monday, Mr. McElroydeclined to comment on behalfof A&R Marine. “I wouldn’t becomfortable talking on therecord about that,” he said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

To the editor:We would like to add our per-

spectives to the April 23 BostonGlobe article “Middle class erod-ing, gap widening in Bristol, RI.”

Historically, Bristol has beenand is a culturally and economi-cally diverse community. Bristolresidents trace their roots frommany different countries, but allhave the commonality of wantingto make Bristol their home. It isquote common to have severalgenerations of families callingBristol their home.

Visitors come to Bristol for ourbeautiful downtown and greatrestaurants, but more important-ly, people move here to be part ofa wonderful community that sup-ports each other in every way. Wehave a highly skilled volunteer firedepartment and division of emer-gency medical services. Neighborsare willing to risk their lives foreach other and help protect theirneighbors’ property.

We have a July 4th celebrationthat is the oldest in the countryand run entirely by volunteers

who work year-round to com-memorate what America standsfor: freedom and independence.We have sent our sons and daugh-ters to protect and defend ournation to ensure we continue toenjoy the American way of life.

Yes, we have a food pantry andsoup kitchen that provide food tothe needy, which serve Bristol res-idents as well as people from as faraway as Providence and Newport.This, too, exemplifies our care andconcern for each other.

The income gap here haswidened, and Bristol attractsretirees, but we should look at oth-er numbers, too. Statistics fromHousingWorksRI show that from2006-2012, Bristol added 440affordable housing units. We wanteveryone to enjoy this specialtown.

The economic recovery hasbeen slow, but our brightest daysare ahead. We are recovering fromthe recession, with new business-es and vibrant maritime tradesleading the way.

In the true Bristol spirit, we areworking together to implementpolicies to speed our recovery andimprove the quality of life for allour residents.

Bristol residents working together to overcome economic disparity

To the editor:How wonderful that the University of Rhode Island, in order to “cele-

brate the diversity that’s part of our community” (the words of URI Pres-ident David M. Dooley) will be building a $2.1 million LGBTQ (lesbian,gay, bisexual, transgendered, questioning) center. Three cheers fordiversity.

Next year will URI, again in the name of diversity, build another mul-ti-million center for students who are anti-abortion, supporters of tra-ditional marriage (one man, one woman), and believers in the old-fash-ioned ideal of chastity?

I hope URI’s approval of “diversity” is not limited to the kinds of diver-sity favored by the left. But I suspect it is.

URI has its own definition of diversity

To the editor :Recently, I was privileged to

attend a breakfast meeting on theRoger Williams University WU cam-pus. The venue in the new Com-mons Building cafeteria was gor-geous, the food was superior, theambiance very comfortable, colle-gial and courteous. Looking aroundit seemed to be an idyllic example ofa middle class American setting.

In some ways this all seemedtoo good to be true. Most of the stu-dents I saw going to or from earlymorning classes on campusseemed to be Caucasian, generallywell dressed and well behaved.Where were the others? No, Ilearned later that the high cost ofattendance at RWU was certainlyprohibitive to less affluent minori-ties. This does not seem represen-tative of the actual diversity ofAmerica, so I wonder what will bewhen these students graduate andenter real life situations.

The other remarkable thing Irealized is that there are no NativeAmericans present at this universi-ty. Was it not these same NativeAmericans who had saved RogerWilliam’s own life in the depths ofwinter when he fled Massachu-setts? There is no memorial to theWampanoags, the Pokanockets orthe Pequots on campus and norecognition of the genocide subse-quently inflicted on their brethrenby the Colonists. Is this too harsh areality to teach to the students?

Will these students live in a worldof denial where genocide only hap-pens elsewhere, or will they learnthat this same terrain that they tra-verse is drenched in Native Ameri-can blood, perfidy and sacrifice?That the path to hell is sometimespaved with good intentions?

These same Native Americansvalued the earth, the spirit worldand the ecology more than any-thing else. If the RWU studentslearn only this in their four years of

study in Bristol, it will be time wellspent.

Could RWU not create a programof Native Studies and provide thescholarships that are needed, ratherthan giving these to students fromwealthier homes where state col-leges can accommodate their edu-cational needs. Hopefully the highlycapable and excellent administra-tion of RWU will find the answer.

Diversity training in need at RWU

BY M IC H A E L BY R N ESSpecial to the Phoenix

On April 23, the BostonGlobe published a frontpage article entitled

“Middle class eroding, gap widen-ing in Bristol RI: Yachts and a foodpantry in uneasy juxtaposition.”The author, Ms. Megan Wood-house, apparently spent a day inBristol and spoke to several resi-dents by phone doing her“research.”

I put research in quotes becauseit appears Ms. Woodhouse did lit-tle in the way of research outsideof the Bank of Boston website andthe East Bay Food Pantry on WoodSt. She was capable enough, how-ever, to find those facts that fit herpreconceived story line.

One wonders how she selectedBristol when she had numerouschoices with wider gaps muchcloser to home. Whatever her rea-son for selecting Bristol, her poorlyresearched article was an unde-served depiction of one of the besttowns on the East Coast.

Bristol may not be perfect, but itis a far cry from the town por-trayed in Ms Woodhouse’s article.The first line in the article tells onewhere she is heading. “With itssweeping views of NarragansettBay, this quaint sailing townboasts waterfront mansions, post-card perfect New England Inns,trendy gastropubs, and a museum

to the America’s Cup yacht race.”No doubt we are a quaint sailing

town and also a town with a work-ing waterfront where fishermen’swork boats get dock preference.We have one nice inn, and trendygastropubs (must be a Bostonthing), which might be Fins andAidan’s. Gastropubs?

Her last shot was “a museum tothe America’s Cup yacht race.”The Herreshoff Marine Museum isthat and much more. It is a muse-um to a pair of brothers who wereworld class innovators and entre-preneurs, and who by buildingsuperb yachts and machinery, cre-ated many good jobs for genera-tions of Bristol workers.

From there Ms. Woodhousetakes Bristol further downhill,making the statement that Bristolis increasingly a community ofextremes of great wealth andpoverty. She obviously was notaware of the waves of Irish, Italianand Portuguese immigrants whocame to this country with littlemore than the clothes they carriedwith them and who in most casesdid not speak English. There hasalways been wealth disparity inBristol, but for real-life people ithas never been a fixed condition,and many of the descendants ofthese dirt poor immigrants arenow doing quite well.

Ms. Woodhouse seems to thinkthat poverty in Bristol is a recentphenomenon. Immigrants and

their children have consistentlymoved into the “middle class” andbeyond due to hard work, familystability and a strong desire foreducation. This was the Bristolway. Bristol, like any immigrantcommunity, was always a town ofextremes, but none of them per-manent. Ms. Woodhouse and herkind would do well with some his-torical perspective.

Ms. Woodhouse never goes intothe reasons why she posits thatBristol might be “increasingly acommunity of extremes” or whyfood stamp usage has jumped 130percent in Bristol County from2009-2012. These conditionsmight be due to general economicconditions or a growing numberof single-parent families, or thatBristol provides a good number oflow income housing opportuni-ties, or that the Food Pantry andthe Soup Kitchen at St Michael’sparish hall draw many folks fromout of town, giving the impressionthat conditions are worse herethan other places. Ms. Wood-house never looks into to any ofthese factors. We never hear howmany single-family householdsare using the pantry or how manyof the users are not from Bristol.She never tells us why she usesfood stamp rates for Bristol Coun-ty and never breaks that out forBristol.

Instead, she seems to imply thatthe “mansions on Poppasquash

Neck” are the cause of the currentdistress. Take away all the man-sions and high end condos andwould anyone in Bristol be anybetter off? Why is the fact thatAnthony Quinn and the formerchairman of Texaco lived in Bristola bad thing or why is it even men-tioned? Was Ms. Woodhouse try-ing to say how they enriched thecommunity? Or are they somehowa cause of the disparity? Is shesuggesting that success be penal-ized? This tone of her entire arti-cle comes across with a strongsense of envy.

The fact that Bristol has a foodbank and a soup kitchen (whichcuriously was not mentioned inthe article) is a sign that local folksare working to reach out and helpthose in need. The fact that manyof the people who support thefood bank live on PoppasquashNeck or in the condos along thewaterfront was never mentioned.Bristol has a great number of vol-unteer social organizations thatwork tirelessly to improve thecommunity, but other than thefood bank not a one was men-tioned.

The food banks and soupkitchens are good things and nec-essary, but unless they are supple-mented by “teaching people tofish” they will be bailing againstthe tide. Bristol has a small butexpanding manufacturing sectorand jobs are available, but folks

need to have hard and soft skills(work ethic) to get a job that paysmore than minimum wage. Jobtraining is available with financialsupport in Bristol at IYRS and atMTTI in Seekonk, which providepaths to good paying jobs.

Frankly, Ms. Woodhouse seemseconomically challenged.Change, like the closure of therubber factories and textile mills,occurred more than 50 years agoand is unfortunately a normal partof business churn. Those build-ings that sat derelict for decadeswere converted into condos,shops and in one case affordablehousing for the elderly (of coursenot mentioned). This adds to thetax base, which most people con-sider a good thing.

Ms. Woodhouse hits at tourism,which is source of revenue and weshould be thankful for that, but itis not a “major source” of revenueas she contends. A little researchwould have demonstrated thattourism is growing in Bristol andcreating jobs. It would be good forMs. Woodhouse to know that inBristol “yachts” historically havebeen and still are a great source ofprosperity and jobs in Bristol andthus contribute to the support ofcommunity activities like the foodpantry and soup kitchen.

FYI – money does not grow ontrees.

COMMENTARY

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Plan well, retire well.That’s the motto of Josh Wells, president of EuclidFinancial Services, who stresses that knowing how tomaximize Social Security benefits is critical to build-ing a sound retirement package.While some people believe that Social Security maygo the way of the dinosaur before long, it is still oneof the most important sources of income for retirees,according to Wells. There are more questions than ever about SocialSecurity, and one of the most frequent is, “Whenshould I apply for Social Security benefits?” There isa lot to consider before you receive Social Security,and when to start collecting benefits may be the sin-gle most important decision you make. In fact, timing could be everything!Social Security benefits makeup 20% to 50% ofretirement income for many middle-income marriedcouples, with lifetime benefits reaching upward of$500,000. Social Security is adjusted for inflation,and it is backed by the government and guaranteedfor life. It makes sense to maximize such a vital asset, Wellshas shown clients how to earn tens of thousands ofdollars more over the span of your retirement. Hereare some core concepts and techniques on which Joshconcentrates to help his clients get the most out ofSocial Security.

ACTUARIAL CREDITSAt age 66, you can receive your full Social Securitybenefits, but you are eligible to receive 75% of fullbenefits at 62. If you delay the onset of benefitspast age 66, you earn delayed actuarial creditsuntil age 70. Those credits increase your benefitsby 8% per year so that at age 70 you receive 132%of your full benefits.

SPOUSAL STRATEGIESMarried couples can tag-team each other’s benefits.One spouse can delay his or her benefits, allowingthem to grow by claiming “spousal benefits.” Oncethe delayed benefits reach their maximum level, thespouses can switch. The average married coupleleaves about $120,000 in retirement and spousal bene-fits on the Social Security table. It does not have to bethat way. With a little planning and an eye on yourgoals, retirement really can be the golden years.

LIFE EXPECTANCYThat is one of the most over looked, yet one of themost important factors in the Social Security decisionmaking process. Because men and women are living

longer, the second biggest question we face is: “Howdo I not out live my money?” Real planning, that’show. The average man now lives to age 76, which isup from just a few years ago, and women live evenlonger. So do not hope to die early, plan to livelonger.

LOOKING AHEADTax-saving vehicles can protect your income andgrow your retirement fund. Remember to plan forrequired minimum distributions that you or you andyour spouse will need to live comfortably and enjoyactivities and hobbies.

EVALUATE ASSETSLook at all assets as a whole. When planning forretirement, you have to account for all your money,not just Social Security. All your assets have to workas one.

When it comes to choosing the right Social Securityincome path, it is wise to have an expert help you navi-gate the maze of options. To learn more about SocialSecurity and the strategies available to maximize bene-fits, attend one of Josh’s lectures. If you reference thisad, he will mail you a free ticket to attend.

In the final seconds of the game,Classical was able to wrestle theball from the Huskies whoattempted to run out the clock,but time ran out before The Pur-ple could find an opportunity totie the score.

“Offensively, they have a lot oftechnical skill. And they’re playinga great team defense. They’re defi-nitely playing smart,” Ms. Ferreirasaid.

tory, focusing on enigmatic issuesincluding his assertion thatChristopher Columbus was ofPortuguese heritage; that the mys-

terious Newport Tower was builtby Portuguese sailors in pre-colo-nial days; and that the inscriptionson Dighton Rock on the east bankof the Taunton River were madeby Miguel Corte Real and his ship-wrecked crewmen prior to the set-tlement of New England by Euro-peans.

His research led to authoringseveral books including the fol-lowing: ‘Portuguese Pilgrims andDighton Rock,’ ‘The Electricity ofLove,’ ‘Columbus Was 100% Por-tuguese,’ ‘Pope Alexandre VI andChristopher Columbus,’ ‘TheAntilles,’ and ‘The First Queen ofBristol (Catherine) Was 100% Por-tuguese.’

Among his many honors was anhonorary degree from RhodeIsland College, appointment as anofficer of the Order of Prince Hen-ry, and induction into the RI Her-itage Hall of Fame. His greatesthonor is a museum of his life’saccomplishments in his home-town of Caviao, which was madepossible by admirers in Portugal.

Bristol Town AdministratorAntonio Teixeira, who is a memberof the monument committee andwho worked on various projectsand in many organizations with

the doctor, says, “He was a man fullof spunk who did not recognize theword ‘no.’ Even if something wasvery difficult to accomplish, hewould say ‘we’ll try.”

Talked to “Home Town”After retirement from the B.C.

Medical Center and until his lastdays, he helped people solvehealth problems, including aweekly program across theAtlantic via the “Skype” system.From his office at home he talkedweekly to people in his old neigh-borhood. In these discussions heanswered specific health ques-tions by people who were sittingas an audience in the museumdedicated in his name in 2001.

Over the years he also commu-nicated with thousands of Por-tuguese-American citizens in thisarea via Raul Benevides’ radio pro-gram on WSAR, and the FullChannel TV program “The Por-tuguese Around Us”.

Dedication of the monumentclose to the Fourth of July wouldplease the late doctor, who servedenthusiastically as Chief Marshalin 1975.

Gifts to the monument fund areinvited and may be made by mail-ing checks to the DaSilva Monu-ment Fund, c/o Fred M. Pacheco,555 Metacom Ave., Bristol, RI02809.

As infuriating as it iswhen an umpire blowsa call, I am not sure I

like instant replay. It changesthe pace of the game and ittakes away the intimacy of hav-ing the outcome of games

decided on thefield of play. Itseems strangeto have a deci-sion on a keyplay made by anameless, face-less personsomewhere inNew York (of allplaces) when

the umpires have always hadthe final say on the field.

The process behind the now-failed pension reform settle-ments seems very much likeinstant replay gone awry. Fulldisclosure: I worked to promotepension reform and believe thatthe result served the best inter-ests of all Rhode Islanders. Pub-lic employees’ pensions werepreserved without further gut-ting funding for infrastructure,education and social services.Taxpayers took a hit, but theunfunded liability was cut by $3billion, so the long-term savingsare substantial. It seemed likeRhode Island had finally donesomething the right way.Months of informational ses-sions, dozens of hours of legisla-tive hearings and endless brief-ings brought Rhode Island to aplace where the General Assem-bly was able to take a tough voteand with a stroke of his pen,Governor Chafee signed thepension reform bill into law. Itfelt like good things were goingto happen for Rhode Island —we led the nation in somethingbesides unemployment andmental illness. This time therewas no backroom deal, nosecret meetings. The processhad been open and transparent.Everyone played by the rules.

Just six months later, the pub-lic employee unions filed suit —as they had every right to —challenging the constitutionalityof the statute with the argumentthat the existing law implied acontract and the statute couldnot be altered to changeemployee benefits.

Roger Williams University’sreduced carbon “foodprint”loses nothing in translation

BY C H RIST Y N A DA L I Ncnadalin@eastbaynewspapers.com

Last Thursday, April 24, RogerWilliams University’s diningservices went on a low car-bon diet. No, that’s not a typo— and not to be confusedwith low-carb — grains andbeans were front and center

on the menu at the University’s Upper Com-mons dining facility. Low carbon foods aresomething else entirely: foods that do notcontain beef and dairy and are producedwithout releasing much, if any, greenhousegases into the atmosphere.

While their contribution to greenhouse gas-es may not be as immediately apparent as, say,a fleet of gas-guzzling SUVs, beef and dairycattle have a big impact. In fact, if every Amer-ican skipped meat and dairy just one day aweek, consuming vegetable-based proteins intheir place, it would be the equivalent of tak-ing 19.2 million cars off the road for one year.

This is because the digestive systems ofcows, goats and sheep produce a lot ofmethane – a greenhouse gas that is 20 to 25times as potent as carbon dioxide.

Flexitarianism — going vegetarian or veg-an on a part-time basis — has become prettypopular, for a number of reasons, but pri-marily because it is better for both yourwaistline and your wallet. Low-carbon dietadvocates hope that even more Americanswould skip the beef and dairy every now andthen, if they realized how much better it wasfor the environment. And it’s not even neces-sary to go vegan, or even vegetarian: chicken,fish and eggs are also low-carbon choices.

Eating low on the food chain is not a newconcept. Long before the phrase “carbonfootprint” entered our lexicon; long beforeany of these students (not to mention muchof the staff and faculty) were born, there was“Diet For a Small Planet.” Written by hungeractivist Frances Moore Lappé and released in1971, “Diet” was the first America heardabout the environmental impact and highenergy costs of meat production. Lappé pro-moted vegetarianism not for humane rea-sons, but because it is best for the earth. Lap-pé noted that in some traditional cuisinesthere is a natural balance of roughly 70 per-cent whole grains to 30 percent legumes.

For example, the Latin American diet con-sists primarily of beans with tortillas and rice;traditional Middle Eastern foods includedishes like hummus and falafel, made fromchick peas and bulgur wheat; and in Asia,rice and soy dominate the diet. These foodshave become fairly mainstream in much ofAmerica, are as delicious and healthy as theyare environmentally-friendly, and were pre-sent in abundance on Thursday’s menu.

Bon Appétit Management Company, RogerWilliams’ food service provider, began cele-brating Low Carbon Diet Day one year afterthe 2007 launch of its own Low Carbon Dietprogram, which made it the first in the indus-try to address how food choices can affect ourchanging atmosphere. With cooking demon-strations, and low-carbon makeovers of someof the popular dining stations, diners see that

they do not have to go entirely meatless tomake their diet a climate-friendlier one. Adairy-free fruit smoothie greeted diners on theway into the hall; the regular burger stationwas replaced by a fish taco with fresh cole slawand accompaniments; and the Italian station,usually a cheese-lover’s mecca, was replacedby a buffet of Middle Eastern and Indian dish-es, from hummus and couscous to naan breadand tamarind chutney.

Since launching this low carbon initiativenearly eight years ago, “Bon Appétit hasreduced its beef consumption by 33 percent,and its cheese consumption by 10 percent,”said Nicole Tocco, Senior Fellow from theBon Appetit Management Company Foun-dation.

But what do the students think?“They love it,” said General Manager James

Gubata. “The students are concerned aboutthe impact of beef and dairy on the environ-ment, and the food is really good. They caneast responsibly and it’s delicious. We havecreative, awesome chefs.” Jonathan Cambra,Senior Chef and Assistant Director of Culi-nary Operations, noted that the companystrives to strike a balance between theirclients’ tastes and environmental responsi-bility, reducing, while not eliminating, pur-chases of air-freighted products like tropicalfruits. Also, given the University’s location,they strive to use local, underutilizedseafood, such as the Acadian redfish in thefish tacos. “Last week we served a scup chow-der, and the students really loved it. Once

they got past the word ‘scup’.”By all accounts, Roger Williams students

are more than willing to try new things. Giv-en the stellar credentials of Executive ChefRuben Haag and Cambra, a Bristol residentwho spent several years as Chef de Cuisine atlocal culinary landmarks Inn at Castle Hilland the Boat House, their palates are inextremely capable hands, a fact not lost onthe students themselves, one of whompassed by as Cambra stood in the bustle ofthe lunch rush explaining the low carbondiet. The young man paid Cambra a compli-ment, plain-spoken but ultimately as sincereas it gets: “This guy right here? He kicks butt— every day.”

One recent sunny Satur-day I awoke to a gardenthat suddenly looked

less like a debris field and morelike a place where green thingsmight grow. Perennials are pok-ing out from beneath the mulch

made of winter’sstems andtwigs. My tulipsare up andopening, andthe honesty(Lunariaannua) hasbudded early,or so it seemswith winter

being such a fresh memory.Patches of starry sky-coloredSiberian squill (Scilla siberica)that have increased since lastyear share blue pollen with theneighborhood honeybees, whohave apparently fared a littlebetter than they did last year.Scents of hyacinth, winter hon-eysuckle (Lonicera fragrantissi-ma), and my poor sleet-scorched star magnolia enter-tain my nose, while bloomingstreet trees and evergreens makeit sneeze. The grass is green, andaccording to my neighbors, inneed of a mow already. It’sspring. There can be no doubtabout it now.

Walking around my gardenthat morning I knew it was hightime to get a move on, and I

spent the whole day doing justthat. My first task was to identifythe living and the dead, whichwill never be easy for those of uswith a wonky memory. I can’talways recall exactly where Iplanted anything, and the newfoliage sometimes throws me.Last year I must have misidenti-fied a fall-planted orange yarrow(Achillea millifolium ‘Terracot-ta’) — new to my garden andtherefore precious — and gave itaway with clumps of extrameadowsweet (Filipendulaulmaria). Mea culpa. Theemerging leaves are similarlysoft and ferny but certainly notidentical. Or maybe it just didn’tmake it through the winter.

As soon as I recognized oldfriends, I started moving themaround. This is the perfect timeto dig and divide perennials,particularly any that bloom afterMemorial Day (best to divideearlier bloomers in the fall) andrelocate seedlings of perennialsand biennials such as forget-me-not (Myosotis sylvatica) andfoxglove (Digitalis purpurea).Watered in by us and springshowers, even the tap-rootedseedlings like Atlantic poppy(Papaver atlanticum), will taketo new ground as if that’s wherethey grew all along.

My Shasta daisy (Leucanthe-mum x superbum ‘Becky’) needsannual editing — to another

bed, the compost heap, or afriend — to prevent the ever-increasing clump from Godzilla-stomping adjacent plants.Check. And after two years inone corner of my garden I finallyhave a healthy supply of decep-tively elegant gray-green rosecampion (Lychnis coronaria)seedlings — enough to dotthroughout for a gaudy cerisespectacle in July. I can hardlywait.

It’s also not to late to moveshrubs and small trees, if neces-sary. I transplanted a strugglingIlex crenata ‘Sky Pointer’ fromthe front yard, where it had beensmushed between a beebalm, anagastache, and a rose, to asmidgen of what looks right nowlike open ground in the back. Ishifted my fancy pussy willow(Salix chaenomeloides ‘Mt. Aso’)six inches to the left. No easytask, that, but it’s done and donefor good. At least until I changemy mind again about exactlywhere it should be.

By now, and this happensevery spring, I have blown outthe knees of my favorite jeans.My fingernails are embeddedwith soil and no amount oflotion can soothe or smooth mycrusty knuckles. Calluses haveformed across the top of eachpalm. My back aches; my eyelidsdroop. I’m suddenly, constantly,ravenously hungry, yet am los-ing weight. Clearly I am enjoyinga combination of conditionsthat can only mean one thing:spring and I are finally getting amove on.

May 3-4. During these two days,all Rhode Islanders and visitorscan fish in freshwaters without afishing license or trout conserva-tion stamp. All the usual freshwa-ter fishing regulations on size andlimits apply during the two freefishing days. The free fishingweekend does not apply to salt-water fishing or saltwater licens-es. Visit www.dem.ri.gov for regu-lations. John Littlefield of Archie’sBait & Tackle said “It’s been cold,rainy and windy so freshwatercustomers are about the onlyones fishing. We sold a lot ofshiners this week.” Jason Macedoof Lucky Bait & Tackle, Warrensaid, “Fishing continues to begood at Willet Avenue Pond andothers stocked by DEM.” JohnWunner of John’s Bait & Tackle,North Kingstown said, “We heldour annual opening week troutcontest and it wrapped-up thisweekend with a new rod and reelgoing to the youngster whocaught the heaviest trout. Thisyear the prize is going to Geovon-nie Prece of Providence whocaught a 1.5 pound rainbow troutat Barber Pond, SouthKingstown.”

Striped bass fishing continuesto be good with winter-over bassin both the Providence andSeekonk Rivers as well as in theNarrow River, Narragansett. Not-ed local fly fisherman Ed Lom-bardo said, “We fished the Nar-row River (last week) and did verywell in spite of this outrageouswind! The fish are in and werevery obliging! If it weren’t for thewind we could have landed twicethe number of fish. Geno, Dr.Nick, and I fished until dark andleft very happy. A few of the fishwhere in the 20” to 23” categorybut mostly smaller schoolies.Most any fly worked, small insize, all white, all blue streamers,gold colored shrimp, and pinkworked very well.” At press timeJason Macedo of Lucky Bait &Tackle said, “The last we heard isthat the spring migration ofstriped bass will be here soon asthey are now catching migratingfish off Connecticut.” RhodeIsland anglers usually first landmigrating striped bass from theHudson River area at the WestWall of the Harbor of Refuge.Dave Henault of Ocean StateTackle, Providence, said, “Wehave reports a 28” striped basskeeper being caught at the RedBridge in Providence and a 38”striped bass being caught some-where on a beach in RI.”

Tautog fishing has been slowbecause anglers have not been

able to get out due to bad weath-er. However, anglers are catchingfish from land said John Littlefieldof Archie’s Bait & Tackle. JasonMacedo said, “Keeper size tautogare being caught off the Barring-ton Bridge and Wharf Tavern.One of our customers caught a4.5 pound tautog about 18” offthe Barrington Bridge this pastweekend.” Dave Henault said,

! Governor Lincoln Chafeeissues a proclamation makingMay 1st a Day of Reason. His

declaration is inresponse to arequest from anatheist associa-tion. Some folksare outraged bythis recognition.! Some stu-dents who areillegally in thecountry refuse

to stand during the Pledge ofAllegiance. Their beef? It’s nottheir country.

! Providence College, a RomanCatholic school in Rhode Islandcanceled a lecture by a gay phi-losophy professor who was goingto speak in support of same-sexmarriage. The College cited achurch document that says thatCatholic institutions of higherlearning should not honor thosewho act in defiance of theChurch’s fundamental moralprinciples. Some professorsobject to the cancellation on thebasis that academic institutionsshould teach students how tothink critically which includesexposure to controversial ideas.

! The principal of ProutSchool, a Catholic high school insouth county, invited a reverendto speak to the students. Thecleric reportedly belittled gaysand children who were adoptedor in a fractured family by tellingthem that their parents did notlove them enough. Some parentscalled for the resignation of theprincipal for allowing their chil-dren to be exposed to this kind ofrhetoric. The principal apolo-gized for the “offense.”

So, what are we to think aboutthe health of free speech inAmerica, and right here inRhode Island? Should studentsbe exposed to views that mightbe racist or anti-Semitic or anti-Islam? Should a state counte-nance a lack of religious belief?

Personally, while I do not sharethe sentiments of atheists I thinkthe Governor cannot be faultedfor allowing such a proclamation.He also made a declaration thatMay 1st is a day of prayer. Whywould the former pronounce-ment be any more offensive thanthe latter, to those who do notbelieve in prayer? My own posi-tion is that the government hasto permit the free speech ofopposing points of view. It caneither make no statement oneither request or remain neutral,but it cannot just take the majori-ty position.

Similarly, it annoys me to noend that children who are “Amer-ican” enough to get a free educa-tion can diss the United States bynot standing during the Pledge ofAllegiance. Yet, this country’s coreprinciples include freedom ofexpression. Common courtesyshould require an appropriate

— will someday draw a pensiontoo. As lawyers prepared tobring the case to trial, itappeared as if case law was onthe side of the defense becausethe unions had often used legis-lation — instead of collectivebargaining — to increase orchange benefits over the years.As the court date drew nearer —and Judge Taft-Carter’s clearconflict of interest even landedon the front page of the NewYork Times — she abruptlychanged the rules. She orderedmediation, instituted a gagorder and started running upthe state’s tab on mediation ser-vices.

We went from a fair, transpar-ent process that complied withthe Separation of Powers to ajudicial tyranny where a con-flicted, activist judge let a pile oflawyers, none of whom areelected, try to rewrite a law thatonly elected representativeshave the legal right to change —all while running up a morethan $500,000 mediation bill.The rest of the parties in thecase were left to scramble — theunions wanted to save face anddidn’t want to have case law goagainst them. Treasurer Rai-mondo wanted to preserve hersignature accomplishmentwithout giving so little that shelooked uncompromising. All ofthis while being forced to workunder a gag order so that JudgeTaft-Carter would never have tohear her work called into ques-tion or fear that mistakes madein open court would get herdecision overturned. Instead ofseeing a blemish on her win-loss record, she simply decidedto change the rules.

As disturbing as it was to see ajudge corrupt our legislativeprocess, at least the failure ofthe settlement puts the processback on track. It’s unfortunatethat the judicial hijacking hasforced a court date of Septem-ber 15, a week after the Democ-ratic primary for governor. Bothsides want to be done by then,and the truth is that this caseshould have been heard longago. Had it not been for thegross mismanagement by JudgeTaft-Carter and the “only inRhode Island” scenario wherethe politicians are on the side oftransparency while the judicialsystem is contaminated withconflict, we might have gotten itright the first time — withoutthe instant replay.Cara Cromwell is a publicaffairs consultant with morethan twenty years experiencemanaging issues campaigns forcorporations, non-profits,associations, coalitions andcandidates on both sides of theaisle.

Event benefitting the school’sfinancial aid program

will be held May 17

Founded more than 120years ago by ReverendWilliam Merrick Chapin,who took in a homeless boywho was begging at theProvidence train station, St.Andrew’s School has a long

and storied history of providing young peo-ple from all walks of life with a nurturing,stable environment in which to live andstudy.

Today, St. Andrew’s depends on the gen-erosity of the community to raise funds fortheir financial aid program through theirsignature fundraiser, “Night of ShiningStars.” Last year’s event netted more than$123,000.

Each year, St. Andrews partners with EastBay Newspapers to present the Shining StarHonor to individuals from our local com-munities who have, through generosity ofspirit, changed the lives and given opportu-nity to children. Nominees for the ShiningStar Honor are presented by editors of EastBay Newspapers and friends of St. Andrew’sSchool. This year’s Shining Star Honoreesare:

Margie O’Brien Reed Margie O’Brien Reed has always been a

champion of children, even before havingthree of her own. As a reporter, she foundthat she was often searching for stories onpolicies or legislation that would empowerchildren or, in some way, better their lives.

She has worked as a news reporter andanchor in both the Providence and Bostonmedia markets for 16 years. She hosted aBoston-based business program and is cur-rently the host and producer of “RhodeIsland Classroom,” which airs on RhodeIsland’s PBS station. The locally producedprogram highlights inspiring teachers whoare motivating students to succeed andinnovative programs that instill values inchildren in the Rhode Island education sys-tems.

Margie’s devotion extends beyond herwork. She was introduced to Rhode Island’sFoster Parents Association (now Foster For-ward) and was fortunate to maintain a rela-tionship with the staff of that organization.For years, Margie emceed their Annual Gala“Cheeseburgers in Paradise” and assisted inthe fundraising efforts so that more chil-dren could have mentors, a better educa-tion or ideally, a family to love.

Margie was first introduced to St.Andrew’s School when she was the Com-munications Coordinator for Edesia, a non-profit based in Providence, where she hadan opportunity to make a presentation tothe student body at St. Andrew’s School.During which, she described the growingproblem of severe malnutrition in certainparts of Africa and Edesia’s contribution toremedy this devastation. Many of the stu-dents at St. Andrew’s approached her afterthe presentation wanting to taste the prod-uct and wondered how more children couldbe saved by this “wonder food.” St.Andrew’s chose Edesia as their AnnualCharity that year and helped Edesia to raise

funds and feed more children. Margie also hosts of ‘Story Hour’ at Bar-

rington Books where she helps to createand foster a love of reading amongstpreschoolers. Each week, the children arefascinated by the characters and lessons ineach story and in turn, Margie is rewardedwith their artistic creations in related artsand crafts projects.

Margie feels fortunate to be able to volun-teer at her children’s schools during her per-sonal time. This involvement began whenher youngest was three years old. Margieserved on the Board of Directors at Barring-ton Early Childhood Center for years. Dur-ing which time, she helped the preschooldevelop a website, coordinate fundraisersand helped to fulfill its’ mission of “educa-tion through play”.

She has the pleasure of being “CoachMargie” on both the soccer fields and bas-ketball courts of Barrington. Working withthe Recreation Department and YMCA hasgiven her the chance to not only coach herown children but extend her guidance andenthusiasm to their teammates and friends.

Margie O’Brien Reed is an exceptionalrole model. Through her work and her per-sonal life she finds countless ways to helpshape children and instill practices that willhelp them to succeed in life.

Margie received a Bachelor’s degree fromSt. Anselm College and a Master’s Degree inCommunications/Broadcast Journalismfrom Emerson College. She resides in Bar-rington with her husband, Todd and threechildren, Camden, Cole and Delaney.

Peter Blanchet Peter Blanchet is the epitome of a devot-

ed member of the St. Andrew’s School fac-ulty. His passion for teaching and deeprooted love for the school and its students istruly an inspiration to the community.

Pete graduated from the University ofMassachusetts, Amherst Campus in 1970with a Bachelors of Science in Zoology andbegan teaching at St. Andrew’s School in1971. He briefly taught math and a few oth-er subjects in the early 70’s but has taughtbiology for the remainder of his tenure.While working at St. Andrew’s, Pete was ableto go back to school during his personaltime and receive his Master’s Degree from

Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) inScience Education.

Pete was dorm parent in Bill’s house from1971 to 1986. He coached baseball andjunior varsity basketball for the first fewyears before he began coaching cross coun-try in 1974. Since then, he has coached thecross country team for 40 consecutiveyears.

Pete finds it a privilege to have taughtgeneration of students, providing guidanceand mentorship for hundreds of studentsthrough the years.

In 1986 Pete, his wife MaryJane, and theirtwo sons moved off-campus and purchaseda home in Barrington. Moving off campusgave Pete the opportunity to coach LittleLeague, which his sons played for severalyears in the 1990’s.

Pete and MaryJane continue to reside inBarrington. Their son, Jeremy, wife Toniaand their 3 daughters, Kaden (9), Macken-zie (7) and Natalie (5) now live in Glen Allen,Virginia; and their son, Jeffrey, wife Kellisand son Carter (2) live in Bristol. The lega-cy of teaching in his family continues, asJeffrey teaches 8th grade math at Barring-ton Middle School.

Pete has gone above and beyond for hisstudents over the past 40 years. He isdescribed by his peers as selfless and alwaysputs St. Andrew’s first, and the communityis incredibly grateful for all he has given.Pete emulates one of the most importantguiding principles at St. Andrew’s: “studentsfirst.” St Andrew’s strives to ensure that all oftheir decisions – academic, fiscal and philo-sophical – emanate from this conviction.

This year, Southeast New England (SENE)Cross Country coaches and Athletic Direc-tors recently met and voted to rename thePrep School Cross Country Championshipafter St. Andrew’s faculty and cross countrycoach Pete Blanchet for his 43 years of ser-vice.

Jane Dennison, MD Dr. Jane Dennison has devoted her life’s

work to helping children and their familiesin the Rhode Island community for the past30 years.

The world of pediatrics and adolescentmedicine consists of new opportunities toencourage learning and teaching parents

on health and wellness for their children,while having the opportunity to encouragechildren to practice healthy lifestyles anddecision making. For Jane, becoming apediatrician goes hand in hand with whyteachers teach, having the chance to makea difference in children’s lives.

For Jane, when you work with children,there is a multidimensional physical, men-tal, emotional, and spiritual dynamic.“Children by nature are optimistic andexploratory, and that is what makes it excit-ing to go to work each day.”

Teaching has always been one of Jane’spassions. She and her husband, Allen, whois also a medical doctor, dedicate their timeto teaching young residents in the hospitalsystems of Women & Infants and HasbroChildren’s Hospital, in their respective prac-tices and through the Alpert Medical Schoolat Brown University.

Jane graduated from Brown University in1976 with a Bachelors of Science in AquaticBiology. She then went on to MedicalSchool at Columbia University: College ofPhysicians and Surgeons, where shereceived her M.D. in 1980. Jane was award-ed both the Haffenreffer Teaching awardand the Teaching Award for the Departmentof Pediatrics.

Currently, Jane is the Secretary of thePhysicians Hospital Organization (PHO)Board and member if the Indemnity Boardat Women & Infants Hospital.

Jane frequently volunteers at her churchand during her spare time, she enjoys herpassion of beekeeping as a member of theRhode Island Bee Association. She fre-quently shares her bee expertise by present-ing to local Girl Scout Troops. Jane and herfamily have remained active volunteerswith the Boy Scouts of America andalthough her sons’ have completed theirrequirements, as a family, they often attendhiking and skiing trips with the Scouts.

Dr. Jane Dennison’s commitment to chil-dren, the young people of Barrington andthe medical professionals and doctors whoare just beginning their career is inspiringto our community.

Jane resides in Barrington with her hus-band Allen and they enjoy spending timewith their four adult sons Eric, Ethan, Johnand Malcom.

Birding walks and eventsare happening statewide,

Spring migration is here, and ifyou have ever though about bird-ing, May is the perfect month tostart. The warming weather bringsa wide variety of neotropicalmigrants to our area. These color-ful songbirds include warblers,tanagers, vireos and many more.

For a beginning birder on yourown, this season can be over-whelming. But if you hit the trailswith a helpful Audubon expert, apair of binoculars, and a fieldguide, you can become an enthu-siastic birder in no time.

The Audubon Society of RhodeIsland will be offering free birdingwalks every day of the month inMay. “Not only will you get helpidentifying these beautiful crea-tures, but it’s also a great way tomeet other folks that share thesame interests,” says Laura Car-berry, Audubon naturalist andexpert birder. “It’s a wonderfulhobby for all ages.”

Many people believe anestate plan starts andends with a will, but

that’s just one piece of the pic-ture. A sound estate plan shouldmeet 5 objectives: name the peo-ple to receive your assets at your

death, name thepeople who willmake yourfinancial andhealth care deci-sions should youbecome dis-abled, avoid pro-bate, minimizeestate tax, andprotect your

assets from risks. These objec-tives can be accomplished using5 legal documents: a durablefinancial power of attorney, ahealth care power of attorney, awill, and trust and beneficiarydesignation. Each of these docu-ments fulfills a specific purpose.

! A durable financial power ofattorney identifies the personwho will manage your financialassets when you can no longer doso. The word “durable” relative toa power of attorney simply meansthat your agent’s authority con-tinues after you become disabled.If you become disabled and didnot sign a power of attorney, yourfamily will not be permitted toaccess your bank accounts andinvestments, or manage your realestate and other assets, until acourt names a guardian for you— an often slow and expensiveprocess. Court interventionmeans more time, more legalfees, and more stress for yourfamily.

! Similarly, a health care powerof attorney names the personwho will make your health caredecisions, such as authorizingmedical procedures, medicationsand hospital or nursing homeadmissions. The Rhode Islandform of health care power ofattorney also serves as a livingwill and may instruct your agentto withdraw life support when

you are terminally ill and yourdoctors believe you will notrecover. A heath care power ofattorney can help avoid emotion-al anguish and legal battles suchas those faced by Terri Schiavo’sfamily, whose parents and hus-band disagreed for fifteen yearsabout whether to discontinue herlife support.

! A will is the legal documentby which an individual nameswho will inherit his or her proper-ty. In the absence of a will, thestate effectively writes a will foryou. In Rhode Island, the lawstates that when a married per-son with children dies without awill, his or her assets are splitequally between their spouse andtheir children. Most people aresurprised that all assets will notdistribute to the spouse. If youwould like certain people toreceive your assets, you need awill. In addition, a will namesboth the guardian for your minorchildren and the executor of yourestate — the person charged withensuring that the terms of yourwill are followed. A common mis-perception about a will is that itavoids probate, however assetsthat distribute under a will arealways subject to the probateprocess. Jointly-owned propertyand assets naming specific bene-ficiaries, (such as life insurance,annuities and retirement assets)distribute independently fromthe terms of a will to the namedbeneficiaries. In effect, theseassets avoid probate because thebeneficiary designation overridesthe will. Generally speaking,assets owned in an individual’ssole name and without a benefi-ciary designation pass at deathpursuant to the terms of a will,subject to the probate process.

! A trust is a legal arrangementunder which one person, a“trustee” legally owns property onbehalf of another person, the“beneficiary.” The trust agree-ment instructs the trustee how toinvest and distribute the trustassets. Trusts can be used for very

different reasons. Most common-ly, a revocable or “living” trust iscontrolled by the creator of thetrust and used to avoid probateand save estate tax. However, lessexpensive alternatives for probateavoidance should also be consid-ered and discussed with an attor-ney. Other trusts, known as “irrev-ocable trusts,” involve giving upcontrol of assets during life tosave estate tax, qualify for Medic-aid, or protect a child’s inheri-tance from a failed marriage,business or imprudence. Futurecolumns will discuss the positiveand negative aspects to trustplanning in more depth.

! Coordinating beneficiarydesignations with the terms of anestate plan is an essential part ofthe planning process. If you fail toname a beneficiary on an asset, itmay distribute at death pursuantto state law or the terms of a poli-cy or retirement plan, which maynot be consistent with your wish-es. If you wish to leave assets intrust for your children when youdie to either protect the assetsfrom “creditors or predators”(think ex-spouse), or to preservea child’s government benefits(think SSI or Medicaid), you mustrevise your beneficiary designa-tions to send the life insurance orretirement assets into the trustand not to your child directly.After a person dies, a family canbe surprised, if not shocked, bybeneficiary designations. Preventthis unpleasant surprise for yourfamily and work with your attor-ney to revise your beneficiarydesignations, even if it costs a lit-tle more.Attorney Macrina G.

recognition of the unifying sym-bol of citizenship, but this issueisn’t about manners.

The Catholic institutions are adifferent story as are all privateinstitutions. Personally, I think

folks should be exposed to allsides of an argument, but it isthe prerogative of private insti-tution to include only those whoshare its core values.

One thing is for sure. In thepublic sphere, the United Statesshould not tolerate a selectivechampioning of free speech.

Those who are advocates of freespeech must be consistent andstand up for free speech for all,no matter the target. Muzzlingvoices of opposition is not theAmerican way. Private institu-tions can censor, however —even if to do so truncates educa-tion.

Spring has finally sprung.What does that mean tome? The season of home-

brew is upon us!There’s nothing better after a

long day of work than crackingopen a beer and knowing youmade it yourself.

Wait…what’s that? You don’tmake your own beer or wine?Well this is your year to start!

Many people (men and womenalike) consider getting into home-brewing but are deterred by theusual hesitations: “Isn’t it messy?”“I don’t have the space to home-brew.” “I heard it’s really compli-cated.” “I did it years ago andwant to get back into it, but Idon’t have the time.”

Allow me to ease your con-cerns. Homebrewing doesn’tneed to be messy, space is not anissue, it can be as technical or assimple as you’d like it to be, andit’s gotten very user-friendly overthe past decade. In fact, home-brewing is one of the largest-growing hobbies in the country(based on no research whatsoev-er, just a hunch I have).

Barrington’s Brickyard Wine &

Spirits has teamed up with BrewHorizons (out of NorthKingstown) to bring in a full lineof homebrewing and wine mak-ing supplies to the East Bay. Theresponse has been overwhelm-ing.

From people who have neverbrewed before, to 10+ year veter-ans of the hobby, we’ve had theopportunity to serve a wholerange of brewers.

So what do you need to getgoing? First you’ll need a starterkit. It’s a one-time purchase andhas most of the hardware you’llneed to get going. Then you’llneed a brew kettle, an ingredientkit and bottles.

From there you brew by boilingthe “wort” (unfermented beer),add hops, ferment the wort intobeer, bottle and enjoy!

That’s it!Today’s extract kits (“extract”

means the grains have alreadybeen processed for you, cuttingdown on equipment and brewtime) are the perfect way to dipyour toe in and see how you likehomebrewing. But be warned:Once you’ve brewed your firstbatch you’re likely to get hookedon the hobby.

If you’re concerned your wife or

husband won’t approve, all I cansay is try doing it as a couple.You’d be surprised how manycouples have a blast brewingtheir first batch together. Andthink about showing up to thenext cookout with a bunch ofsuds you brewed. How romantic!*sigh*

As I mentioned before, over thepast decade the homebrewindustry has seen incrediblegrowth, which has led to drasticimprovements in ingredients andequipment that make the art ofhomebrewing easier and morefun than ever before.

If you’d like to learn more aboutthe wonderful world of home-brewing, feel free to swing byBrickyard Wine & Spirits, email usor drop in on a meeting of theEast Bay Homebrewers Club (wemeet once a month, and it’s freeand open to the public).

Cheers to Homebrewed Beers!

BY JOAN D. WARREN

Diana Kryston openedCentury 21 Butterman &Kryston 25 years ago after

a career as a teacher. She attendedProvidence College, where shereceived Bachelor of Arts andMaster's of Education degrees.When she is not working (whichis most of the time), Diana lovesto be on the water, sailing. Thislong winter can't be over soonenough for Diana — for businessand for getting out on the bay.Diana has a daughter, Sarah, whois a sophomore at Bay ViewAcademy in East Providence.

WHY REAL ESTATE AS ACAREER?"I was a Pawtucket SecondarySocial Studies teacher and thoughtselling real estate was something Iwould enjoy doing on a part-timebasis. I did enjoy it, and when theopportunity to own my own com-pany arose, I took it."

WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST

ABOUT IT? "It is very gratifying. In the midstof a transaction, whether a buyeror seller, it is very intense. Youmay be talking to that client sev-eral times a day. You are part oftheir life. Many clients havebecome personal friends and westay in contact long after the clos-ing."

ANY DOWNSIDES?"Yes. In each transaction, you getvery involved with your client andwant the best for them, and thereare times that things just don'twork out as you hoped and youfeel their pain and disappoint-ment."

WHAT WOULD YOU DO IF YOUWERE NOT A REALTOR?"At this point, I am not sure. Iused to fantasize about teachingsailing and cruising."

WHAT ARE SOME OF YOURHOBBIES?"One of my favorite things to dois to sail. I am proud to say that I

did get my captain's license andlove sailing in Narragansett Bayand to the Vineyard. As a memberof the Coast Guard Auxiliary, Ienjoy teaching boating safety. Ialso enjoy running and reading."WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITEPLACE TO HAVE LUNCH? "Iactually bring my own lunch tothe office most days. If I am hav-

ing a business lunch, my favoriteis the Old Canteen on FederalHill. Good food, reasonable pricesand cloth table clothes!"

WHERE WOULD YOU LIVE IFYOU WEREN'T IN RHODEISLAND?"I am a true Rhode Islander, bornand bred, and can't imagine living

anywhere else. I love the chang-ing seasons, Narragansett Bay,driving to most places in 20 min-utes or less ... I do, as manyRhode Islanders, wish our winterswere shorter!"

WHERE DO YOU GO TO RELAX?"I do enjoy being anywhere nearthe water. I also enjoy going outto dinner at one of our many finerestaurants with family andfriends and enjoying a glass ofwine."

CATS OR DOGS?"I have a rescue dog that is aCavalier Cocker Spaniel/Bisonmix that is very quirky and I amcrazy about."

SPRING MARKET PREDIC-TIONS?"We are already seeing the resultsof a lot of pent-up demand afterthe long winter. Inventory hasbeen low, so when somethingcomes on the market, priced right,it sells!"

Current Residential Mortgage Rates CALL 401-253-6000 TO PLACE YOUR MORTGAGE AD TODAY.

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 Housingand 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 thatwish to be included on this list can get in touch with Classified Real Estate Advertising Specialist at 401-253-1000
