    Laughter is medicine for the soul. It

    needs no prescription, has hilarious

    side effects and is readily available to

    all. Whether we burst out laughing or laugh

    up our sleeves, humor makes us feel good.

    Watch humor at its best when The New-

    port Summer Comedy Series presents wit and

    word play under the harbor-side tent at the

    Newport Yachting Center in Newport, Rhode

    Island; seven stand-up comedians that have

    audiences laughing til their sides hurt.

    What better way to spend a summer night than

    having a good laugh.

    Every year our lineup gets better and big-

    ger. Last year 13,000 people attended our 10

    featured performances. This year we expect tobreak that record, remarks Joe Rocco, Presi-

    dent and founder of the series.

    Terry Fator, an extraordinary imperson-

    ator, comedian, singer and ventriloquist who

    touched millions of peoples hearts when he

    competed on and won NBCs Americas Got

    Talent says that, Im really excited about

    In New Bedford MA the sea surrounds us

    with its never ending loveliness, and its

    the easiest thing in the world to stroll the

    hills of Fort Taber watching the clouds out to

    the far horizon of sapphire. Then enjoy the fresh

    bounty of that same ocean five minutes away at

    the outside patio of famous Davys Locker Res-

    taurant, where the salt tang mixes with the scent

    of delicious New England cooking.

    Fort Taber Park at Clarks Point, open

    from dawn to dusk, has clean green swards,

    circling bike paths, a colorful playground,

    snack shack and friendly beaches to be en-

    joyed in this sultry summer heat. It also has

    a magnificent reminiscence of past wars that

    established this peaceful scene, the seven-

    sided edifice of Fort Rodman.

    In 1997, the City of New Bedford created

    a public park with bicycle trails and walk-

    ing paths, taking advantage of the panoram-

    ic views. Als o built were moving memori-

    als representing the various armed forces

    and conflicts. Available for conversation

    and history are the volunteers of the FortTaber Historical Association who maintain

    a military museum on the grounds.

    trace your route to stop in at Davys Locker at

    1480 East Rodney French Boulevard.

    itethe 22nd annual Fall River Cel-

    ebrates America, Friday, August 8

    through Sunday, August 10. This years theme

    is Our Communitys Family Festival. Thisyears festival will have more family oriented

    activities going on at the Carousel Parking lot,

    says Thomas F. Lyons, 2008 Fall River Area

    Chamber of Commerce board chairman.

    And how about that food! Of course, therewill be Portuguese and other ethnic food and

    music. Says Joan Medeiros, director of the

    food court, We have reached out to local eth-

    nic groups, churches and restaurants to put to-

    gether a mouth watering array of food choices

    to satisfy all tastes.Monte Ferris, 2008 festival chairman, has

    good news for pinched travelers, vacationers

    and area residents this summer. Weve made

    it far more affordable for everyone from youngpeople to seniors. Last years admission price

    of $10 will be reduced by $7, or 70%, with ad-

    vance sale wristbands good for all three days

    available for only $3. Daily admission at the

    gate will be $3. Children 12 and under are ad-mitted free.

    The fun starts with the official Naturaliza-

    It has been called a moving symbol of

    Providences renaissance. WaterFires

    one hundred sparkling bonfires, the

    fragrant scent of aromatic wood smoke, flick-

    ering firelight on the arched bridges, the silhou-ettes of the firetenders passing by the flames,

    the torch-lit vessels traveling down river, and

    the enchanting music from around the world

    engage all the senses and emo-

    tions of those who stroll the pathsof Waterplace Park. WaterFire has

    captured the imagination of over

    ten million visitors, bringing life to

    downtown, and revitalizing Rhode

    Islands capital city.

    WaterFire Providence at Wa-terplace Park, RiverWalk is the

    award-winning sculpture by Barn-

    aby Evans installed on the threerivers of downtown Providence.

    Mr. Evans received the Renais-

    sance Award from the City of Prov-

    idence for his work as an artist and

    his role in revitalizing downtown Providence.

    The growth was not yet over, WaterFire cel-

    ebrated its 200th lighting last August.WaterFire does not charge a formal admis-

    sions charge, but they do ask for and need fi-

    nancial support. They suggest a gift of $5 per

    person. It needs public contributions to present

    the event and cover expenses. One particularlysatisfying way to contribute is to dedicate and

    light a luminaria candle lantern in honor of

    mous Funky White Honkies hit the stage with

    a 90-minute show.

    Saturday afternoons main feature after

    doors open at noon is the opening round of the

    Fall River Catches a Star Talent Contest at theHeritage State Park Meadow Stage. Saturday

    evenings fun starts at 5 p.m. with The Stream-

    line Band, featuring a high energy, interactive

    stage show with diverse dance music. New

    Image, an eight-man soul, rhythm and bluesensemble, takes over from 7:30 to 9:30 p.m.

    Then fireworks! At 9:30, the 30-minute

    Fireworks Show will light up the Taunton Riv-

    er and Battleship Cove from a barge anchored

    off the starboard bow of the Battleship.Okay, are you still with me? There still is

    much to see and do.

    Sunday afternoons main feature will be the

    final round of the Fall River Catches a Star Talent

    Competition. Providence-based Santa Mamba,ends the festival with a 6 to 8 p.m. gig on the main
