New Hi-Low Vertical Lift Adjustable Bed
Exclusively at Cardi’s Furniture & Mattresses
The NIROPEDIC LIFT HI - LOW Vertical
Lift Adjustable Bed rises and lowers
vertically to “GO TO BED”. You just sit and
lie down, no more climbing into bed.
The head and foot adjust for reading,
watching TV, and the most comfortable
“SLEEP” positions.
When it’s time to get out of bed, it can
position you up or down, providing the
best height to “GET OUT OF BED”.
Our mom loves this bed...
need we say more?
CONTRIBUTORS
Annie Sherman
didn’t gravitate
to horses until
she spent time
with Eden in
Westport,
Massachusetts,
for her article
“The Horse
Whisperers.” When the jet-black brood
mare nudged Annie’s notebook right out
of her hand and then walked away, Annie
knew she was in for a tough interview. The
poignant Mean Girls moment taught the
freelance journalist and former Newport
Life magazine editor to be more present,
and that horses are so much more than
meets the eye.
Shepard Fairey
lived in
Providence for
eight years,
where he
studied at RISD
and worked on
his first print
studio. At
Governor Raimondo’s request, he created
the R.I. Angel of Hope and Strength
poster, which is this issue’s cover, as an
image to lift the spirits of Rhode Islanders
whose lives have been disrupted by the
Coronavirus crisis. Its themes weave
together the state’s blue collar strength
and the bravery of frontline workers, as
well as “Hope,” the state’s motto. “It was
an honor,” he says.
Todd McLeish,
who reported on
an ant survey for
this issue’s
Current, says his
favorite part of
writing about
local wildlife is
the opportunity
to join with biologists as they study their
target species. But he was just fine with
missing out on a field trip for this
particular story. Just hearing that Rhode
Island is home to vampire ants, needle
ants and at least sixty-nine other species
was enough to make him want to pull out
a can of Raid. �
