If a magic genie approached
you and asked what you wished
for Portsmouth going forward,
what would you say?
We asked that very question of
residents — past and present —
and they gave us an earful.
While their answers were many
and varied, the overriding consensus was that the town needs to
offer more activities for children
and teens to keep them occupied
and out of trouble. Fortunately for
them, the town is taking steps to
do just that. The Town Council
recently approved a plan to revive
a recreation program for the town
(see page 4 for more).
Some others wanted to see spe-

showed more Christmas spirit by
putting more lights on their property.

Johna M. Spencer: “It is very
important for this town to have
more stuff for kids. We definitely
need a recreation department
again. It shouldn't be all about
sports, though. Maybe a community center where middle-schoolers or teenagers can go. Like
Sharon said, maybe bowling or
roller skating — can you imagine
that coming back? We need to take
care of our kids.”

CRMC to consider artificial ‘Reef Balls’ here
They aim to attract fish,
but recreational and
commercial fishermen
at odds
Upper Melville Pond
stocked with trout
BY BRUCE BURDETT
bburdett@eastbaynewspapers.com
A bid to build a trio of artificial
reefs in East Bay waters faces a
hearing next Tuesday before the
state’s Coastal Resources Management Council (CRMC) in Providence.
The reefs would consist of “Reef
Balls,” manufactured beehiveshaped concrete structures riddled with holes that, proponents
hope, would provide homes and
gathering places for sea life
including fish.
These would be lowered into
three half-acre sites (quarter-acre
reef plus buffer) — off Weaver
Cove in Portsmouth’s Melville
area; in Mt. Hope Bay north of
Portsmouth’s Town Pond and
Common Fence Point; and a third
midway between these two. All
have similar sandy bottoms and
are 15 to 25 feet deep.
Each site would contain 30 clusters of three sizes of Reef Balls — 4
feet, 3 feet and 2 feet wide, with
the biggest weighing 1,300
pounds.
The experiment seeks to answer
a few fundamental fish questions,
says Chris Deacutis, a supervising
environmental scientist with the
state Department of Environmental Management. (RIDEM) These
include:
■Will fish such as black sea bass
and others gather at the new artificial reefs?
■ And if, as expected, fish do
come, “are you actually increasing
the number of fish in the area “or
are you just getting an influx of
local fish drawn to your site from
existing natural reefs?” That, Mr.

Sea life begins attaching itself to a small Reef Ball.
Deacutis added, “is not a good
thing," especially if the result is
that more of the fish wind up getting caught by anglers.
The project is backed by the
RIDEM and The Nature Conservancy with support from the RI
Saltwater Anglers Association, a
recreational fishermen’s group.
Less enthusiastic are some
commercial fishermen represented by the RI Fishermen’s Alliance.
David Beutel, aquaculture and
fisheries coordinator with the
CRMC, said the Alliance has
raised several concerns, including
that:
■ The reefs would convert a
commercial fishing area to a
strictly recreational one;
■ Some of the fish might eat
lobster whose bay numbers are
already depressed;
■ A similar study was already
done some years ago in Dutch

proposed fish reefs.
Harbor (Mr. Beutel said the new
study is different from the earlier
one).
It is Mr. Beutel’s job to offer a
recommendation to the CRMC
and he said that he will recom-
Upper Melville Pond is among those the R.I. Department of Environmental Management (DEM) is stocking with trout for the winter fishing
season.
Beginning Tuesday, DEM began stocking about 3,000 trout in eight
ponds statewide. Besides Upper Melville Pond, the others are Carbuncle Pond in Coventry, Olney Pond in Lincoln, Barber Pond in South
Kingstown, Silver Spring Lake in North Kingstown and Round Top
Ponds in Burrillville.
“Even though there is no ice currently, we have had many beautiful
days for fishing this winter,” said Catherine Sparks, assistant director for
natural resources at DEM. “Getting out in the fresh air is a great way to
start the new year and generate excitement for opening day in April.”
Anglers can be assured that winter stocked fish will hold over opening day, set for April 11, according to DEM.
DEM reminds anglers of a new regulation that began in 2012 prohibiting the use of felt soled or any porous material footgear in any fresh
waters of Rhode Island. This includes any waters shared with adjacent
states in which Rhode Island fishing regulations apply.
Although there is no ice at this time, DEM advises anglers to check
with individual communities regarding safe ice conditions on local
ponds before going ice fishing. DEM does not monitor ice conditions
on local lakes and ponds.
Ice must have a uniform thickness of at least six inches before it is
considered safe by DEM. It generally takes at least five to seven consecutive days of temperatures in the low 20s for safe ice to form, according
to DEM.
In addition to the requisite cold temperatures, ice thickness is also
determined by factors such as the size and depth of a pond, presence of
springs or currents, and local temperature fluctuations.
DEM has an ice safety guide that can be found online at
www.riparks.com.
mend approval, with several stipulations. One stipulation is that
the Reef Balls be securely tied
together to prevent them from
being moved about by a storm.
Mr. Deacutis said he is aware of
the commercial fishermen’s concerns.
Initially, the idea was to forbid
all commercial fishing within the
reef areas. That has changed, he
said, to restricting certain gear
such as “trawls and traps that have
the potential to destroy the reef.”
If the CRMC approves the plan,
Reef Ball installation would take
place next spring, Mr. Deacutis
said. Each site would be marked
with a buoy cautioning people not
to anchor within the area.
He expects that it would take
about four years to begin to learn
the impact of the reef project. “We
will monitor both the reef sites
and natural rock reefs” to learn
about any fish population trends.
Questions need
Mr. Beutel said he will recommend the project in general to the
CRMC because it is experimental
and will help add to knowledge
about artificial reefs and fish populations.
The project is sound, he said,
but personally he wonders about
the need for the new reefs here.
Being at the southern end of the
glacial moraine, the sea bottom
here already contains significant
numbers of rocks and features
where fish gather, Mr. DeAcutis
said. That is unlike other places,
such as off the Delaware and New
Jersey coasts where the need for
artificial reefs may be greater due
to the relatively featureless sea
bottom.
Mr. Deacutis said he is “really
enthused about (the project’s)
goal and objectives to clarify how
well artificial reefs provide new
secondary production (new fish
added to the population) for sport
fishing.”
The CRMC hearing begins at 6
p.m. on Tuesday, Jan. 13, in Conference Room A at the Administration Building, 1 Capitol Hill, Providence.

‘Penguins’ herald in 2015 with icy dip
Technical difficulties with
bonfire don’t dampen
revelers’ enthusiasm
BY JIM MCGAW
The plunge itself was over in seconds, but
lighting the bonfire on the beach? That was
another story.
After building a tall stack of wood on
Island Park Beach and dousing it with
gasoline, organizers initialON THE WEB ly had trouble getting it lit

repeatedly
snuffed out any spark as
soon as it had started.
Finally, a brainstorm: Members of the Fire
Department, who were on hand to keep
things safe, retrieved some old flares for the
occasion. Firefighter Rob Maglione finally
got the blaze going after tossing a few of
them in.
It was a slightly smaller turnout than in
the previous two years, mainly because
news of the plunge had come only a couple
of days earlier.
John Vitkevich was the unofficial chairman-by-default of the festivities, which
lost its regular post-plunge hangout after
The Beach House further up Park Avenue
closed several months ago. (Some
plungers suggested Tremblay’s as the
replacement.)
“Last year was big because of the 375th
celebration, but this year someone called
me and said, ‘What’s the deal? Are you
doing it?’” said Mr. Vitkevich, who quickly
agreed.
(The Portsmouth 375th Steering Committee hosted two plunges in 2013 — one
to kick off the year on Jan. 1, the other to
end it on Dec. 31. Many swimmers also
turned out to take the splash on Jan. 1,
2014.)
Mr. Vitkevich, one of the main opponents
of the Sakonnet River Bridge toll that was
eliminated last June, had previously taken
the dip with the phase “No tolls” painted on
his back. This year, it read, “? Tolls.”
One of the youngest swimmers was Ben
Farrea, who celebrated his 13th birthday on
Tuesday and was making his debut New
Year’s Day plunge.
Ben was reluctant to brave the icy waters
he was “bribed” into doing so by family
members who promised to take him out for
a hamburger afterwards.
“We told him he had to jump in,” joked
family friend Lynda Comfort.
“It was awful. I hated it,” said Ben while
shivering under a towel.
Would he do it again?
“Oh yeah,” he said.
Richard Meyer, who was the last to jump in,
said this was his fourth year doing the
plunge.

opponents of the Sakonnet River Bridge toll,

Many revelers stayed by the bonfire long after the plunge was over.

so I agree we need something
more for our children to do —
something all year, not just in the
summer months. Something they
will enjoy going to and continue
going to — a game room perhaps,
with a roller rink.”
Frances-Elayne Johnson: “Anything for the kids offline and
preferably outdoors!”
Jim Lipe: “Bring back the soap
box derby with some adults
allowed to race! Open the old
swimming hole, with a new rope
swing.”
Marsha Laflamme Sheldon:
“We need more for the kids (middle school and up) and we need
more variety for shopping. I think
a Target or (something) similar
would keep people shopping here
rather than off the island.”
Rhoda Tarpey Bucci: “I no
longer live in Portsmouth but I
don't think it ‘needs’ a Target. I
enjoy Target but I'm for keeping
Portsmouth the community feeling I grew up with, so more activities to keep the young people in
town to enjoy that ‘hometown’
feeling that I grew up knowing.”
Cindi Leary-Johnson: “The tax
base is maintained by our small
businesses (and Dunkin’ Donuts).
These small businesses would
close if Target came to town; that
does nothing for the tax base.
Keep our local hardware, fabric
store, dress shops, shoe store, etc.
open and healthy. Selling out is a
quick fix which will bite you
quickly down the road.”
nesses would be ecologically conscious of their surroundings and
not pollute the area. I know some
people would like to see a retail
complex in town. I'm hoping this
property stays industrial. Or better
yet, become farmland again.”
John Farley: “I want to see the
“It is very important for this town to have more stuff
for kids. It shouldn't be all about sports, though.”
JOHNA M. SPENCER
Gary Edwards: “No one wants
Starbucks, or Target or housing
developments. Well, those are the
things that provide a tax base that
I suspect the town needs. Of
course everyone wants the town
to be like it was when we grew up
there, and that can occur, but at
what price? Private development
can be regulated and monitored
so the ambiance of the community isn't compromised, but funds
have to come from somewhere.”
John Vitkevich: “Light industrial
commercial growth on West Main
Road because the tax base needs
it. We can’t continue to pay for the
stuff that we have to pay for with
just residential tax dollars. Whatever we can — and yes, I am a
commercial, light industrial
developer — but I recognize that
we need it. More residential is not
the answer.”
Joe Sousa: “There needs to be a
mix. If you look at Swansea Mall
Drive, you see big and small mixed
and it works well. The shopping
district didn't ruin Swansea.”
Johna M. Spencer: “It would be
beneficial to the town for
Raytheon to sell off their empty
buildings to a business or businesses so as to keep them on the
tax rolls as commercial and not to
become another housing complex. I'm hoping that the busi-
economy continue to grow and
improve, locally and globally.”
Deborah Laflamme: “How
about if they repave the streets? I
don't ever remember Cedar
Avenue being that bad. It's a trip
hazard for the elderly walking up
the road.”
Gary Edwards: “I agree with
Cedar Avenue being in terrible
condition.
I
walked from
our vacation

Avenue
in
Island Park just
off
Cedar
JIM LIPE
Avenue to my
mom's house
on Cove Street last summer and
couldn't believe the poor condition of the streets.”
Gwen Baer: “The dump needs a
swap shop to leave good stuff you
don't need anymore, so it doesn’t
end up in the landfill.”
Jeff Pimentel: “Let’s kill this idea
for pay-as-you-throw trash before
it starts.”
Kristine Perkins: “How about a
bakery? Remember Picard's (the
former Colonial Bakery) across
from the IGA?”
Ellen Davis: “A laundromat?”
John Leary: “A 24-hour diner.”
Joe Sousa: “Rock concerts at the
Glen.”
Lori Fitzgerald said she wanted
to see improvements made at the
town-owned Sandy Point Beach.
“I grew up in Portsmouth,” she
said. “Upon leaving, I started paying the price for an out-of-town
Sandy Point Beach sticker. I'm not
sure where the $50 fee goes. Most
afternoons the restrooms are
locked and no one has a place to
change or facilities to use. Last
summer I saw many people head
behind the building when they
were unable to get in to the
restrooms. Why not leave the
restrooms unlocked longer?
Maybe one half hour before sunset would be a good time to lock
them. Fifty dollars is a lot of cash
to pay only to find out you have
nowhere to change into a swimsuit.”
Frances-Elayne
Johnson:
“Christmas lights on more houses.
They were everywhere when I was
at PHS. (It’s)
somewhat
depressing driving down the
street I grew up
on and it's all
dark, except for
one
house.
Same thing on a
lot of streets.”
Sheila Warren Barker: “Teaching local history in the schools.
There's just so much that happened in our area.”
One woman, who wished to
remain anonymous, said she
wanted to see seasonal parking
meters installed along Park
Avenue.
“We have a large population
from Rhode Island and Massachusetts visiting the beach as well
as the restaurants. This would
bring in revenue and deter some
people who may not be an asset to
the area. Please don't take that the
wrong way,” she said.
“Bring back the soap
box derby with some
adults allowed to race!”
Klimm: Town close
to hiring head of new
recreation department
Many people who shared their
hopes and desires for Portsmouth
going forward said the town needs
more activities for young kids and
teenagers.
Well, their wishes may soon
come true.
In October the Town Council
unanimously voted to establish a
Parks, Recreation, Arts and Activities Department for a trial period
of 18 months.
On Tuesday, Town Administrator John Klimm said plans for the
new department are moving
along smoothly.
“The Town Council did create a
recreation department from now
until June 30, 2016,” Mr. Klimm
said in a telephone message left
with The Portsmouth Times. “We
advertised for a part-time director
and we’ve gotten some excellent
applications. We’re down to, I
believe, five finalists, so we’ll be
making a decision shortly on staff
and then we’re off and running in
establishing a new department.”
Mr. Klimm had first recommended reviving the town recreation department — one existed
years ago but was eliminated —
in a September 2014 letter to the
council.
“We are one of the few communities in Rhode Island without a
formal recreation department
and it is my opinion that the
absence of professional recreation
staff has placed an unfair and
unacceptable burden on other
town employees who have other
and more pressing obligations,”
Mr. Klimm stated in the letter.
Mr. Klimm is a former town
manager in Barnstable, Mass.,
which had 276 employees in its
recreation department, he’s previously told the council.
The projected budget for the
new department, according to
estimates Mr. Klimm has previously given the council, would be
about $25,000 annually — or
$37,500 over the 18-month period. He expressed confidence,
however, that the department
could fund itself.
When the council approved the
department on a trial basis last
October, it included the condition
that the program would be selfsufficient.

Polo match scenes
featured in TV series
If you’re watching the new
Smithsonian Channel miniseries, “Million Dollar American
Princesses,” you may have spotted some familiar turf.
Each segment includes scenes
filmed at the Newport International Polo Series at Glen Farm,
when the USA team faced Scotland on June 21, 2014. Other
scenes were filmed on location in
Newport, including at the Marble
House.
The three-part show, which premiered Sunday and continues Jan.
11 and 18 at 8 p.m., chronicles the
stories of real American heiresses
and their arranged marriages to
British nobility at the end of the
19th and early 20th centuries.
Between 1880 and 1920, as
many as 350 British aristocrats
married wealthy American brides
— the so-called “Dollar Princesses.” The series chronicles the true
stories of how marriage, class, sex,
ambition, power and money all
converged during these four
decades, as the sun began setting
over the British Empire.
Hosted by Elizabeth McGovern,
the show reveals the stories of
some of the most charismatic and
adventurous women of their day,
and how they interacted with the
great social changes that ushered
in the 20th century. It uses historical documents, interviews and
dramatic re-enactments to bring
to life the stories of these women’s
romances, heartbreaks, secrets,
scandals and their enduring legacy.

EDITORIAL
Wishful thinking
W
ith the new year but a week old, here’s
hoping that even a few of these come to
pass in 2015 …
■ That the new group controlling Congress show some restraint and common
sense in their rush to dismantle all things to do with environmental protection.
■ That something be done to improve the sound quality
inside the Town Council chambers at Town Hall. Between
the HVAC system constantly shutting on and off and council members talking off mic, it’s often difficult to hear
what’s going on.
■ That Portsmouth’s revived recreation department is a
success.
■ That Charlie Enright and Alvimedica crew be first over
the horizon when the Volvo Ocean Race sails into Newport
next May.
■ That Aquidneck Island, Tiverton and Westport get the
bike paths they’ve awaited for so long. The Sakonnet River
Bridge bike path is a nice touch, but so far it’s a path to
nowhere.
■ That we all live long enough to see the return of monarchs, bobwhites, bats, box turtles, herring, flounder, frogs,
honeybees, songbirds and all the other creatures we once
took for granted.
■ That some state/municipal union leaders realize that a
slightly diminished pension is better by far than what
bankruptcy would leave
them. Even without those

■ And that government be relentless in rooting out the
phonies who rake in those lifetime “injured on the job”
pensions. Why is it that catching the cheats lifting weights
and hitting the slopes and links is left to TV reporters? And
why are these things tax free?
■ That for the sake of fresh air and singed toes, smoking

The microchip, a tiny radio-frequency identification device, is
about the size of a grain of rice. It
is implanted under the loose skin
between the cat’s shoulder blades.
When activated by a handheld
scanner, the chip emits an
alphanumeric code that identifies
the pet. Microchips never need to
be charged or replaced and are
easily injected using a specialized
needle and syringe. It is quick and
practically painless, causing no
more discomfort than a vaccine
injection.

investigated the history and culture of the game of soccer, and
explored the phenomenon of its
tremendous popularity worldwide.

setts with scandal.
Lost amongst all the celebrity
and gossip was one important
historical tidbit — Lizzie was
found not guilty. Given that fact,
an even smaller group of people,
including the two authors of this
book, pondered this question: If
Lizzie was found not guilty, who
was the actual murderer of
Andrew and Abby Borden? It is
now time to let Lizbeth tell you
her side of the proceedings as the
truth is revealed and the actual
killer is discovered.
This fascinating account of the
case was chosen by Bridgewater
State University for its 2015 selection for the One Book-One Community reading project.
The program is funded by the
North Family Trust and is free and

Hooked
Master angler and fly tyer,
Bristol’s Bob Sousa has been
tricking fish for more than
six decades
BY CHRIST Y NADALIN
B
cnadalin@eastbaynewspapers.com
ob Sousa ties flies with the
easy confidence of someone who has been doing it
so long, and so well, even
he’s forgotten that he’s
among the best in the
world. He’s holding out a
hook so small, and so light, it actually fits
inside Roosevelt’s ear on the bas-relief of the
“heads” side of a dime.
“This is the smallest functional hook
made,” Sousa says. “Very few people can tie
on a hook this small.”
Almost as an afterthought, he acknowledges, “I’m probably one of them.”
The hook is so small, it’s hard to believe
that it would catch a fish worth the nanofinesse required to create a tie to fit. Certainly nothing bigger than a fat minnow, or a
small sardine, at most.
Sousa gestures, the international language
of fisherman everywhere, a space 14 to 18
inches between his palms. “Big trout,” he
says. “Finesse and fatigue.” Proving that with
fly fishing, like with so many things, it’s not
the size of the dog in the fight, it’s the size of
the fight in the dog.
Finesse is actually the operative word, and
as as one of the world’s most renowned fly
fisherman, nobody understands that better
than Sousa. This Bristol native, known for
initiating the Fly Fishing Merit Badge for the
Pages B1-B8
Boy Scouts, is retired from a career as a fisheries biologist with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife
Service, but under no circumstances is he
retired from fishing. It’s something he does
virtually every day of the year, made more
comfortable by the fact that he spends much
of the colder months in Florida.
For Sousa, fly fishing is more than a hobby,
and more than a sport. “It’s an impressionistic art form,” he says. “You want your fish to
believe that your fly is something it wants to
eat. Fish are motivated by two main forces:
fear and greed. Just like the stock market —
you want to eat as much as you can, without
being eaten yourself.”
That’s an important point that Sousa
emphasizes. “You want to tie the fly for the
fish, not the fisherman.” A too-perfect fly
might appeal to the fisherman, but it’s going
to look funky to the fish. “You want it to look
a little debilitated,” he says. “”Predators will
chase low-hanging fruit every time.”
Growing up in Bristol in the 1950’s, graduating from the Colt Memorial High School in
1963, Sousa was introduced to fly fishing by
his grandfather, with whom he caught his
first brook trout, around age 7, in Little
Compton. He was, if you will pardon the
pun, hooked.
Tying his own flies soon followed, around
age 10.
Working with tiny fragments of feathers
and hairs that reflect light and react in
water, like the fine downy feathers from a
chicken neck (“see the fuzzes between the
barbles?”), Sousa deftly creates flies both
dry and wet, designed to mimic everything
from minnows to larval and adult mayflies.
But he is quick to note that the fly itself is
See SOUSA Page 5
Bob Sousa ties a fly that, when wet, will mimic a minnow and attract large fish like
striped bass.
ALONG THE WATERFRONT
Man overboard — Davis leaps from Alvimedica
T
eam Alvimedica set
sail on the Volvo
Ocean Race’s 4,670nautical-mile third
leg to Sanya, China,
Saturday but first it had to send
one sailor overboard.
After sailing two laps of an
inshore course
close to the foggy Abu Dhabi
waterfront, it
was time for
“Jump Seat” passenger and Bristol native Angus
Bruce
Davis to take his
BURDETT
leave.
Sporting
Alvimedica orange shirt and
American flag pants, he leapt
from the boat and was picked up
by the chase boat as Alvimedica
headed for sea.
An observer for Team Alvimedica reported, “By the estimation
of the TV commentators, Team
Alvimedica’s ‘Jump Seat’ athlete –
Angus Davis from Providence,
TEAM ALVIMDICA/VOLVO OCEAN RACE
Bristol native Angus Davis scores style points for his leap from the
Alvimedica ‘Jump Seat’ as the around the world racer sets off for China.
Rhode Island – scored a perfect
10 with his daring belly flop from
the windward side of the boat.”
“The leg start was really exciting,” he told an Alvimedica
reporter later. “I need to work on
my diving form a little bit and I’m
sure my friends will give me a
hard time about it. But I wanted
to make the biggest splash possi-
ble! It was an awesome experience. At one point before the
start, Charlie (fellow Bristolian
and Alvimedica skipper Charlie
Enright) put me on the wheel —
you could be part of the action,
and you could understand all the
decisions being made. Today was
one of the best sporting experiences of my life.”
Davis earned his place in the
“Jump Seat” through Team
Alvimedica’s online auction whose
proceeds benefit a local charity in
the United Arab Emirates, a
Mobile Heart Clinic program.
With the focus again on racing,
Enright said, “It’s good to get back
on the water now. We’re looking to
capitalize on a few things. We’ve
improved on our boat speed and
other processes on board, and I
think we can see some improvement in our overall leg finish, too.”
Monday morning found
Alvimedica well clear of the Straits
of Hormuz and in third place, four
miles off the lead in the tightly
packed six-boat fleet.
Out of the race for now is Team
Vestas Wind, destroyed when it
slammed into a reef during the
last leg. The team now intends to
build an entry in time, it hopes, to
rejoin the fleet for the final two
legs.
Team Alvimedica and the Volvo
Ocean Race will be in Newport
May 5-18 where the race village
will be completely free - no donations required.
Shellfish closures
Because of snow and rain Saturday into Sunday morning, the R.I.
Department of Environmental
Management announced shellfish
closures in the Kickemuit River,
Mount Hope Bay, Conimicut Triangle and Greenwich Bay.
They will reopen at noon on
Sunday, Jan. 11.
Area A and B are open.
There was 3/4 inch of rain Saturday/Sunday and another quarter inch Sunday into early Monday
morning. For updates on conditional areas, call the DEM hotline

DOWN TO EARTH
Garden notes bring order to the march of time
I
STOREWIDE
SALE
thru January
can hardly believe it’s a new
year already. It feels like mere
days rather than twelve
months since I waxed rhapsodic
about visiting greenhouses and
using candlelight to cozy winter’s
dark nights. And
I remember
bemoaning the
lateness of spring
as if summer
never happened.
Time seems to
stretch in winter
Kristin
like a rubber
GREEN
band cocked at
spring. And then doesn’t it go flying? Come spring we can hardly
help but be in a mad rush to enjoy
every last second. Right up until
the band hits the wall of the holidays with a resounding thwack
and flops to the floor.
Which is why I consider writing
notes about the garden and taking
a few pictures through the season
as necessary as planting and
weeding. Taking the time to mark
the best — and worst — moments
puts the stretch in the elastic of
time. And looking back at those
records now helps me recall that
not only did summer happen, it
was long and glorious (so was fall),
and has plenty to teach about the
coming year.
For instance, reading my notes
from May, I am reminded that just
because something looks dead
doesn’t always mean it is. The roses I thought were goners after cutting them back before April’s deep
freeze (winter truly was inter-
minable last year) bloomed into
November. I also expected to lose
what was left of my Black Lace
elderberry but evidently its disgusting infestation of borers went
to the dump along with the deadest branches. The remaining trunk
might be oddly lopsided but its
wonkiness was hardly noticeable
under a healthy arch of deep purple foliage and black berries.
My Clematis ‘Roguchi’, on the
other hand, never made a comeback. And, as far as I can tell from
photographs, its replacement didn’t live past July. Since losing, two
years ago, a C. tibetana that had
bedazzled my arbor for a couple
of Octobers with sprays of citrus
peel flowers, it’s beginning to sink
in that clematis might only come
to my garden to die. I’m sure it’s
nothing personal. I’ll chalk it up to
acidic soil (they prefer it sweeter),
close quarters (their roots want
cooling shade but also some room
to spread out), improper siting
(wet feet through the winter is
deadly) and neglect (I should have
watered during drought). Lucky
for me and my garden, the nonvining C. heracleifolia, which has
lovely indigo-blue fairy cap flowers in September hasn’t proved
nearly as picky or needy, spreading instead with a moderate
amount of enthusiasm.
I’m glad for the reminder that
my garden wanted more blue, a little earlier in the season, after the
forget-me-nots and before the
clematis. The only hiccup is the
distinct memory, which I never
even wrote down, of a visiting
friend’s suggestion that there
might be such a thing as “too
many plants.” A criticism she knew
I’d disregard with a guffaw. And
you should too if anyone has dared
call the plantiful-ness of your garden into question. Diversity is key
to sustainability and amusement.
I plan to take advantage of the
opportunities presented by death
to fill some of those vacancies
with blue-flowering perennials. I’d
be tempted to try delphinium if I
were up to the challenge. I’m not
and it’s nothing personal. Just that
I learned more about them this
summer and made note that my
garden bears little resemblance to
Siberia. Turns out, contrary to
popular belief, delphinium are
extremely cold hardy; it’s our hot,
humid summers and comparatively mild winters that do them
in. On the other hand, the butterfly magnetic blue spikes of native
North American hyssop cultivars
such as Agastache ‘Blue Fortune’
and ‘Black Adder’ should be better
suited to my garden’s climate and
conditions. It seems for all the
world like it was in full bloom just
the other day.

Some attorneys
general are
sellouts
B
y definition, the Attorney
General is the chief legal
officer of a state, representing the interests of the state in
a variety of areas. He or she prosecutes criminal
cases under the
jurisdiction of
the office and
serves and protects the rights
of all the citizens
of the state.
Arlene
How disconcertVIOLET
ing it is to see
some state attorneys general, past and present,
bastardize the office by acquiescence to the lobbyists bearing
gifts in exchange for favorable
treatment at the expense of regular citizens. As Eric Lipton, a New
York Times journalist has documented, companies under investigation or seeking to prevent any
action that hurts their bottom
line, have all but paid “protection
money” (my characterization) for
immunity. All of this de facto lobbying is done under the radar.
In his October 28, 2014 article
Mr. Lipton wrote about the pushback by the executives of 5-Hour
Energy, the popular caffeinated
drink. The company was being
investigated by 30 states for
deceptive advertising. Rather than
initiate a juggernaut based on science to rebut the patina of deception, the company brought
together key attorneys general at
a resort in Santa Monica Beach
for an all-expense paid “conference”. After throwing in hefty
campaign contributions the
investigation began to stall.
Groups like the Republican
Attorney General’s association
have pulled in $11.7 million in
2014 corporate contributions to
funnel to its members before the
November 2014 election. This was
in addition to a “time” at a resort in
Coronado, California for selected
attorneys general, where 5-Hour
Energy was also one of the sponsors. The rooms go for as much as
$4500 a night, and a bash was held
at an exclusive club which requires
a $125,000 entry fee.
The Democrat Association of
AG’s also rolled in the dough. A
group of former attorneys general
who belong to a group called
SAGE (Society of Attorneys General Emeritus) have their rank and
file on retainer to corporate
clients. They are falling over each
other in order to board the gravy
train.
Unlike the lobbying rules covering other elected officials there
are virtually no revolving door
restrictions or disclosure requirements governing the state attorneys general who serve as the
“people lawyers.” Former attorneys general including Patrick
Lynch of Rhode Island press their
former colleagues into adopting
the position of their paid clients.

scourge of poor people), Comcast, makers of online video

DEM stocks ponds with trout
T
he Department of Environmental Management
(DEM) plans to stock
eight ponds with 3,000 trout this
week for the winter fishing season.
Carbuncle Pond,
Coventry; Olney
Pond, Lincoln;
Barber Pond,
South
Kingstown; Silver
Spring Lake,
North
Kingstown;
Upper Melville
Capt. Dave
Pond,
MONTI
Portsmouth; and
Round Top Ponds, Burrillville will
be stocked with trout.
A current fishing license and a
Trout Conservation Stamp are
required to keep or possess a
trout. The daily creel and possession limit for trout currently
stands at two per day through Feb.
28.
How do you know if ice is safe?
Ice must have a uniform thickness of at least six inches before it
is considered safe by DEM. It generally takes at least five to seven
consecutive days of temperatures
in the low 20’s for safe ice to form.
In addition to the requisite cold
temperatures, ice thickness is also
determined by factors such as the
size and depth of a pond, presence of springs or currents, and
local temperature fluctuations. For
ice conditions in your city or town
check with local police and at
Olney Pond in Lincoln Woods
State Park, call DEM’s Division of
Parks and Recreation at 401/6676200. DEM has an ice safety guide
online at riparks.com.

World record tautog
Last Friday Kenneth Westerfeld
of Bayside, New York landed a 28.8
pound, 35” tautog which if verified
will be the new all-tackle International Game Fishing Association
(IGFA) world record. The current
world record of 25 pounds was set
in 1998 by Anthony Monica fishing out of Ocean City, New Jersey.
Westerfeld, who was fishing
wrecks in the Atlantic Ocean, said
(as reported by On the Water magazine online), “Well I can only
thank my lord and savior Jesus
Christ for bringing me this bite,
and Capt. Kane Bounds for
putting me on this wreck.”
Capt. Bounds of Fish Bound
charters out of Ocean City, Maryland said, “Well today Ken Westerfeld did it, he managed to land a
very impressive 28.8 pound tautog. The fish was caught on a
white crab in 75 feet of water…”

Where’s the bite
Cod fishing remains strong with
the Seven B’s, Francis Fleet and
Island Current party boats reporting good fishing. Dianne from the
Seven Bs said, “Cod fishing was
very good Saturday. There were a
number of cod in the 8-12 pound
range… High hook had 8 keepers
and the largest cod was just shy of
19 lbs. High-low bait rigs, with
fresh clams, outperformed the
anglers using jigs. The Seven B’s
will be sailing Friday thru Sunday
leaving at 5 a.m. Captain Andrew
Dangelo will be at the helm for the
Cod fishing season. Call him at
401/788-6012 for reservations.
Roger Simpson of the Frances
Fleet said Saturday they had “a
nice turnout and a very good
catch of fish. Well over 100 nice
green cod on board with the pool
fish just over 20 lbs and a dozen
other fish right behind in the mid
to upper teens. Hi hook took
home eight fish and both bait and
jigs did well with the fish spread
evenly around the Lady Frances.
Fishing in general is very good.”
Party boats sailing for cod fish at
this time include the Seven B’s at

body the antioxidants it needs to
prevent damage to your brain
cells. Drinking green tea also
boosts antioxidant intake. Choosing foods high in omega 3 fats
(including salmon, tuna, walnuts,
olive oil, and ground flaxseed) has
been found to decrease the risk of
developing Alzheimer’s disease.
Walking as little at 30 minutes on
most days of the week helps to
keep our body and mind in the
best shape possible.
In addition to foods, there are
lots of lifestyle modifications that
you can do to keep your brains
working effectively.
■ Get enough sleep. Memories
are enhanced during the deepest
sleep cycles.
■ Make time for family and
friends. People who are the most
social show the slowest rates of
cognitive decline.
■ Surround yourself with a
positive support system. Your
pets count!
■ Practice meditation. It keeps
our mental acuity sharp and
strengthens memories.
■ Move your eyes from side to
side for 30 seconds. This helps
the 2 halves of your brain communicate better.
■ Work out your brain. Try a
new activity such as knitting, a
puzzle, playing a musical instrument, or a new game to challenge
your mind.
■ Laugh! Laughter is a great
way to decrease stress and
remain in the moment.
Remember, exercising your mind
is just as important as exercising
your body to stay sharp, alert, and
keep your memories fresh.

Happy New Year! Or it might
have been if my dog Jasper and I
hadn’t wound up at the emergency room on New Year’s Day. It
seems that bacon cheese bites
don’t really agree with him —
wish my New Year’s Eve guests
had thought of that...
Anyway, it made me think.
Should I have some kind of doggie first-aid kit at home? Jasper
was pretty sick with vomiting
and had diarrhea, so I doubt a
home remedy would have
helped. But in general, what
should I have handy? Thanks.
—Unprepared
Dear Unprepared,
With a few exceptions, a pet
home first aid kit isn’t much different from a human first aid kit.
But as you learned the hard way,
prevention is a whole lot better
than spending the holidays at the
veterinary E.R. So the next time
you have guests, remember to
warn them not to slip Jasper
snacks and to follow any house
rules to protect your pet. That
means, if you have cats, all ribbons go straight from the birthday gift to the sealed trash can. I
have a rescue Golden who’s a veteran of five foreign-body surg-
eries, so my poor guests know
that napkins have to stay off laps
and on the table.
General prevention can save
you a lot of late-night and weekend trips. Flea and tick prevention can spare your dog or cat
that bout of intractable itching
that always seems to occur right
at five o’clock on a holiday weekend. If your dog is leashed and
your cat indoors, bite wounds
and car accidents are unlikely.
And as you know first-hand,
table food isn’t always the best
idea.
In general, you should have on
hand items to treat minor ailments only; when in doubt, take
your pet in for treatment.
First, keep the phone numbers
of your vet, the local veterinary
emergency centers, and the ASPCA poison control center handy.
You should also keep a fresh bottle of 3 percent hydrogen peroxide in case the poison control
specialist tells you to induce
vomiting in your pet — but never
do so without veterinary supervision, as some poisons do as
much harm coming up as going
through. Hydrogen peroxide also
cleans both ears and superficial
wounds in a pinch.
Include rolled self-adhesive
bandages, Tefla pads, cotton
balls, antibiotic ointment, hydro-
cortisone ointment, and eye
wash. Add tweezers, an appropriately-sized Elizabethan collar
(a.k.a. the “cone of shame”), and
styptic powder, and you may not
be ready for anything, but you’re
ready for a lot.
If your pet has a minor GI
upset (mild diarrhea or vomiting
but seems fine otherwise), you
can sometimes manage it conservatively. Boil a boneless, skinless chicken breast without
added fat or seasoning, cook
some white rice, and mix one
part meat to 3 parts rice. Offer
small meals frequently if no
vomiting or diarrhea occurs.
Vomiting can be serious, so
check with your vet if your pet
isn’t acting 100 percent normal.
For cats, chicken baby food
works best, but check the label;
avoid garlic or onion powder.
So now that you’re prepared for
the worst, let me wish you and
Jasper a very safe and healthy
New Year.

games, and, of course, on-line
gambling proponents. Despite Mr.
Lynch’s representation to potential
clients on a separate website from
his law practice that he can guide
them through the network of
attorneys general associations and
work with them to build relation-
ships, Rhode Island’s former Secretary of State Ralph Mollis ruled
that he was acting as an attorney
so he need not register as a lobbyist when he opportuned Peter. Kilmartin, the present AG.
While Messrs. Mollis and Lynch
are ethically challenged, the ruling
should prompt the media to be
extra vigilant to these sub rosa
activities. As to the other states
attorneys general, in December
following Mr. Lipton’s expose, the
national association took a baby
step in banning corporate sponsorship of its events. The Republican and Democrat associations
need to do likewise and to rediscover their mission to represent
the people.
SOUSA: “Tie for the fish, not the fisherman”
From Page 1
only one piece of the puzzle.
“Pick your habitat first. Fish in
places fish are likely to be,” he
says. Choosing your fly is important, but so is making it behave
appropriately. “Fish are sight
feeders,” Sousa says. “If the fly
behaves in a way that is worthwhile, the fish will strike it.” He
uses a technique (that a fishing
buddy refers to as “Bob’s strip
tease”) whereby he reels the line
in very fast, roughly 2 inches at a
time, with an action that looks
much like strumming a guitar. It
gives the fly a herky-jerky affect
that, very often, induces an
immediate strike. How effective
is this technique? “When I’m on
my game,” Sousa admits, “I’ll
hook a fish with every cast.”
It’s been a remarkable avocation, one that has spawned not
only countless hours of entertainment (and delicious fish),
but several books, including his
most recent “The 24 Greatest
Flies You Don’t Leave Home
Without” as well as “Learn to Fly
Fish in 24 Hours” and the latest
update to the Boy Scouts’ fly fishing handbook. He gets more
appearance requests at fishing-
related events than he can possibly schedule. Fishing has
brought Sousa around the world;
throughout the U.S. as well as
South America, the Caribbean,
Canada, New Zealand and Japan.
His favorite fishing spot? Not an
easy question to answer, but if he
has to, he’ll say the Gulkana River, in Alaska.
In his six decades of fishing,
Sousa has tied thousands and
thousands of flies (including one
that caught nearly 70 fish before
getting hung up in a bush), and
given away thousands as well.
One thing he has never done?
Sold a fly.
Why? Because, he says, “It’s
better to make a friend than a
dollar.” And if there is such a
thing as karma, and it applies to
fishing as well as anything else
(and why wouldn’t it?) even a fish
would have to grudgingly admit,
if you are going to get caught,
you can’t do better than to get
caught by Bob Sousa.
Are we ready for a comeback?
W
e all remember how it
happened: after the
disastrous 2012 season, the Red Sox assembled a
team in 2013 that went from last
in the league to first and became
World Series
Champions.
With veterans,
rookies and seven free agents
from around the
league, a team
was built that
not only comCara
but won.
CROMWELL peted,
Can they do it
again in 2015? More importantly,
can Governor Gina Raimondo
launch a similarly epic comeback
here in Rhode Island?
I had the opportunity to help
out with Governor-elect Raimondo’s transition and it was clear to
me that her singular focus is
expanding Rhode Island’s economy and growing jobs here in the
Ocean State. Launching Rhode
Island’s comeback — and making
sure that all Rhode Islanders are
prepared to benefit from long
term economic growth — is the
central goal of her administration. And just like a general manager confidently making plans in
January for a World Series win in
December, Governor Raimondo
has drawn top talent from inside
and outside of Rhode Island and
assembled a standout team that
can deliver a comeback for our
state.
In her cabinet Governor Raimondo has retained the best veteran talent in state government
including Colonel Steven O’Donnell of the Rhode Island State
Police, A.T. Wall at Corrections
and Janet Coit at DEM. Governor
Raimondo added “all-stars” from
out of state like Secretary of Commerce Stefan Pryor who led successful economic development
efforts for the City of Newark
under then-Mayor (now U.S. Senator) Cory Booker as well as her
new Chief of Staff, Stephen Neu-
man. Previously, Neuman has
worked for three governors in
three different states showing
that he’s able to successfully
adapt to different political cultures with ease. The Raimondo
administration will have at least
two leaders with impressive GOP
credentials: the new Director of
Administration, Michael DiBiase
was chief of staff to Governor Lincoln Almond and Director of
Management and Budget,
Jonathan Womer, worked for a
republican governor and in the
White House under President
George W. Bush.
Of course it takes more than
just good players to make things
happen. We need strong leadership and teamwork. That’s why
some political observers have
noted that Governor Raimondo
and the leaders of the general
assembly have been meeting and
talking through their respective
priorities. This is significant
because it’s been 20 years since a
governor in Rhode Island has
shared a party label — and a
good working relationship —
with the general assembly. While
I am no fan of one-party rule, the
shared priority of bringing our
economy back to life is not an
ideological one and it is refreshing to see a collaborative spirit.
I don’t want to be too much of
a “homer” — especially since
Rhode Island’s problems are
numerous and complex — but I
think that this new team can get
our state on the right track and
headed for a comeback.

my family. We all learned so much from
each other."
DO YOU STILL HAVE CONTACT
WITH THE EXCHANGE STUDENTS? "I
keep in touch via email with an exchange
student from Spain, Jamie, and keep up
with another, Frank, also in Spain on
Facebook. Two of my children had the
opportunity to visit and stay with students
we hosted, in France and Spain. My oldest
child is an immigration attorney, and I think
it was because she was inspired by
American Field Service at Barrington High
School and the trips she took. In college she
studied in Mexico and Spain. She is taking
a break at present. She is at home with three
very active boys!"
COUNTRIES REPRESENTED: "We
hosted teenagers from Spain, France,
Ireland, Canada, Egypt, Italy and Russia."
WHAT DID YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT
IT? "It is so much fun to meet new people.
Everyone has a different dream, a goal. It's
a journey, and I am honored to help."
VOLUNTEER WORK: "When my kids
where young, I was very active in the local
schools, helping run fairs and the PTA. I
BY JOAN D. WARREN
L
Nancy Tobias has lived in
Barrington since 1983 and raised
three children. She is now the proud
grandmother of six amazing grandchildren.
Nancy grew up on a thoroughbred horse
farm in Seekonk. In the summer, her family would travel with the horses to
Rockingham Park in New Hampshire. As a
young girl, she always had her own horse,
usually a horse retired from racing.Nancy
attended Roger Williams College (now
Roger Williams University) as an art major
and then attended Katherine Gibbs
Business School. She has been a Realtor for
more than 15 years and is with Residential
Properties in Barrington.
WHY REAL ESTATE AS A CAREER?
"My father-in-law had an agency and asked
me to help him. I thought it was great from
the first day."
WHAT DID YOU DO BEFORE REAL
ESTATE? "I was home with three children
and active in American Field Service, a
study abroad program. I loved having different kids from all over the world stay with
Nancy Tobias

was one of the founding members of the
first parents' group to help give input for
the not-yet-built Hasbro Children's
Hospital. Today I focus on people I see in
the community who need help, and I help in
any way I can. We all need help sometimes."
HOBBIES: "I enjoy the beach, anywhere.
One of my favorites is Second Beach in
Middletown. I love to collect sea glass and
white rocks. Reading is a favorite activity. I
really enjoy my book club. We just finished
two great books: 'All the Light We Cannot
See,' by Anthony Doerr and 'The Boys in
the Boat,' by Daniel James Brown."
WHERE DO YOU GO TO RELAX: "To
the beach with my boogie board.
Swimming is very relaxing."
ADVICE FOR DOWNSIZING: "Really
think about it before making a big change,
especially moving to a different state. I
know so many couples who sold the family
home and moved to a new state, and then
someone is very unhappy."
FAVORITE RESTAURANT: "DeWolf
Tavern in Bristol."
PETS: "Rusty, my chocolate lab."
DO YOU STILL RIDE HORSES? "I ride
when I have the opportunity. I have a friend
in Plainville that had an extra horse for several years, and I would ride with her."

Loan rates based on $100,000 with 20% down payment & no PMI. Variable mortgages listed are for 30 years, adjusted annually. Points are a one-time charge equal to one percent of the mortgage. APR stands for annual
percentage rate and reflects closing costs spread over the life of the loan. CAP is the most a variable mortgage can increase in one year. Savings and loans and Rhode Island loan and investment banks are included in the bank section of this chart. These rates, provided by the institutions on Monday of this week, are subject to change or special conditions. For more information, consumers are advised to call the institution. First-time homebuyers may qualify for lower-rate mortgages from the Rhode Island Housing and Mortgage Finance Corporation. Many
credit unions only grant loans to members and limit membership to a defined group. When shopping for mortgage rates ask for explanation of closing costs.

House of the Week
Downtown Bristol home is a 'Jewel'
This home also
known as "The
Jewel Box" was
featured in
"Spectacular
Homes of New
England."
The open kitchen
blends modern
amenities with the
original charm of an
1840 home.
By the Numbers
Step back in time while enjoying all
the comforts of modern living at this
downtown Bristol home.
Built in 1840, this home has been
updated, but retains the charm and
historic touches from the era in which
it was constructed, including an elegant center hall staircase and a functional back staircase leading to the
ample kitchen.
With three bedrooms and two-anda-half bathrooms, there is plenty of
ADDRESS
room to spread out in 2,768 square
feet of living space.
The first floor features a large
architecturally designed eat-in
kitchen, complete with a gas fireplace, a huge island, unique coffered
ceiling and stainless steel appliances.
The dining and living rooms both
have fireplaces, and beautiful wide
plank hardwood floors extend
throughout the home.
The first floor also features a half-
DAY
TIME
STYLE
bath, a large library and double
French doors leading to a screened-in
porch overlooking the patio and
extensive gardens with a soothing Koi
pond. The 5,003-square-foot property
also includes a detached, two-car
garage.
The second floor features a master
bedroom with a fireplace and bathroom and two additional bedrooms, a
guest bath and a sitting room. The sitting room has a fireplace, as does one
of the bedrooms. A walk-up attic
offers terrific storage space.
The home is located right off of historic Hope Street and around the corner from St. Michael's Episcopal
Church. The convenient location
makes walking to local restaurants,
shops, post office and the waterfront
an added bonus. The home, known as
the "Jewel Box," was featured in the
publication, Spectacular Homes of
New England.
