As the nation reflects on the 23rd anniversary of As the nation reflects on the 23rd anniversary of the September 11 attacks, the Newport community and Rogers High School pause to remember Michael E. Gould, a beloved son of the city and a member of the Rogers High School Class of 1990. After graduating from Rogers High School, Mike continued his education at Villanova University, where he pursued his passion for business. His career ambitions led him to Cantor Fitzgerald, a prestigious financial firm in New York City, where he worked as a securities trader. Tragically, Mike was one of the many lives lost in the attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. As Newport reflects on the events of that fateful day, the memory of Michael Gould stands as a reminder of the countless lives touched by kindness, generosity, and love—a reminder that even in the darkest of times, the light of those we lose continues to shine.

Perhaps we should take a moment today to reflect a Perhaps we should take a moment today to reflect and remember when we were united as a nation, when political differences didn’t turn neighbors into enemies, friends into foes, and families into strangers. We can do better as a people and as a nation. That which divides us must never be stronger than what unites us. We are one people, one nation, and it’s about time that we start acting like it again. I’ll get off my soapbox. #911 #neverforget #nyc #usa #america #newportbuzz #september11th #nyc #newyorkcity

Newport residents are fuming as Mayor Xay Khamsyvo Newport residents are fuming as Mayor Xay Khamsyvoravong and some members of the Newport City Council continue to prove how wildly out of touch they are with the people they’re supposed to serve. The latest insult? A stealthy $81 minimum monthly water fee, buried deep in the fine print of the budget, is now slamming locals like a tidal wave of extra costs. This new “water tax,” as some residents have dubbed it, has blindsided Newporters, especially seniors and those on fixed incomes who are already feeling the squeeze. With bills surging and wallets shrinking, many are asking if the Newport City Council even understands the financial strain their policies are causing. Making matters worse, that $81 fee doesn’t even cover the whole bill. Residents are hit with an additional $19.20 billing fee, a combined sewer overflow fee, and the actual water usage cost. However, there may be a glimmer of hope on the horizon. City Councilors will be meeting in a public workshop on Wednesday, Sept. 18th, at 11 a.m. in the City Council Chambers to work on fixing this mess. #newportri #rhodeisland #xayfornewport #newportbuzz
Two powerful bronze relief sculptures by Gertrude Two powerful bronze relief sculptures by Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney have found a new home at The Breakers in Newport! 🎨✨ Whitney, founder of @whitneymuseum and a celebrated sculptor, originally created these pieces for NYC’s 1919 Victory Arch, built to honor WWI soldiers. The arch is long gone, but these stunning works now commemorate her legacy at her family’s historic mansion. The larger relief, “America at War,” captures the chaos of battle, while “Blinded” depicts a soldier helping a comrade injured by poison gas. Both are now on display as part of the @newport.mansions collection. 🏛️ Check them out on your next visit to The Breakers! #newportri #gildedage #newportmansions #newportbuzz #thebreakers

Alan Shawn Feinstein, a beloved philanthropist and Alan Shawn Feinstein, a beloved philanthropist and champion for kindness and education, has passed away at the age of 93. Feinstein was the driving force behind the Feinstein Foundation, which he founded in 1991 with a mission to encourage young people to perform good deeds and help those in need. Through his leadership program, more than 600,000 children were recognized as “Feinstein Junior Scholars,” leaving an indelible mark on schools and communities throughout Rhode Island and beyond. Feinstein’s commitment to philanthropy was rooted in his belief that small acts of kindness can create lasting change. He dedicated millions to education and community service, and his efforts earned him numerous awards and honorary degrees from universities and organizations across the region. His influence extended to schools named in his honor, and his legacy will continue through the many students and families he inspired to make a difference. A teacher at heart, Feinstein believed deeply in the power of education and compassion. His passing is a great loss to the community, but his work will live on in the values he instilled in so many. Funeral services will be held on September 21 at Swan Point Cemetery in Providence. Burial will be private.

After months of care at the New England Aquarium’s Sea Turtle Hospital in Quincy, three critically endangered Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles were released back into the ocean Thursday. The turtles, named Foxglove, Peony, and Marigold, had been recovering from the effects of cold-stunning after being stranded off the Cape Cod coast last December. Suffering from hypothermia-related conditions like pneumonia, dehydration, and weight loss, the turtles were rescued and brought to the hospital for treatment. Cold-stunning occurs when sea turtles are exposed to water temperatures below 50°F, leaving them unable to regulate their body temperature. “It’s always rewarding to see them head back to the ocean,” said Linda Lory, Rescue and Rehabilitation Manager at the aquarium. “Our team works hard to get these turtles healthy and back where they belong.” The release marks the final step in the aquarium’s efforts for the 2023 cold-stunning season, during which 394 sea turtles were rescued and treated after being found on the shores of Cape Cod by volunteers from Mass Audubon’s Wellfleet Bay Wildlife Sanctuary. Kemp’s Ridley sea turtles are one of the most endangered sea turtle species, facing threats from fishing activities, habitat loss, and pollution. Rehabilitation efforts like those at the Sea Turtle Hospital are part of a broader conservation effort to protect these animals. As this release closes out the season, Lory noted that the aquarium’s team is already preparing for the next round of stranded turtles. “There’s always more work to be done, but it’s great to see these turtles return to the wild,” she said. #seaturtle #capecod #seaturtlerescue #newenglandaquarium #newportbuzz #scenesofnewengland

The New England Patriots kicked off the Jerod Mayo The New England Patriots kicked off the Jerod Mayo era in style with a gritty 16-10 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium on Sunday. In a game that many expected would be a cakewalk for Joe Burrow and company, it was New England who walked away with a statement win, proving that even without Bill Belichick, the Pats are still a force to be reckoned with. Jacoby Brissett, starting his first game as the Patriots’ new QB1, didn’t light up the scoreboard but did just enough to get the job done. He completed 15 of 24 passes for 121 yards and, while there were no touchdowns or picks, his steady performance kept New England in control. Brissett also showed off his legs, picking up 32 yards on seven carries, keeping the Bengals’ defense on its toes. But the real star of the show? Rhamondre Stevenson. The bruising back tore through Cincinnati’s defense, racking up 120 yards on 25 carries and punching in a touchdown. His 4.8 yards per carry average kept the chains moving and took the pressure off Brissett. On the defensive side, the Patriots smothered Joe Burrow all afternoon, holding the star QB to a pedestrian 164 passing yards. Burrow, who many expected to torch the Pats’ secondary, looked out of sync all day, and his offense failed to reach the end zone. Leading the charge for New England’s defense was Keon White, who announced himself in a big way with 2.5 sacks. It wasn’t pretty, but a win’s a win, and beating the reigning AFC contenders is no small feat. New England is 1-0 and proving they’re not ready to roll over in the post-Belichick era. Next up? A home opener against the Seattle Seahawks. The Patriots won’t be favored, but after Sunday’s gutsy performance, betting against them might be a mistake. #patriots #patriotsnation #bengals #nfl #sundayfunday #newportbuzz #newengland
