Officer Rose On duty with Firefighters Weeks, Carmichael and Anderson

Met boats and patrolled throughout the day and evening.

Made minor repairs to the station with the Firefighter.

Assisted Probation and Parol with locating a client.

Assisted citizen with her dog who locked himself in a bedroom.


Safety tip.

Please be involved in your community. Talk to each other and identify older members who might need a little extra assistance during the cold winter months. If power outages occur for extended periods of time make contact with those who might need help. All to often people are to proud to ask for help but may except a warm meal or just nice company.


Today is my last day stationed on the Island for the summer. I have enjoyed working out here again and was pleased to see many positive changes. I would like to thank all of the veteran and new volunteer fire fighters for your service to the island and for the times you responded to calls to back me up. Please have a warm safe winter and feel free to contact me at the police station in town or e-mail me at danielr@portlandmaine.gov

Be nice to each other!

Health Tip of the Week
Got Tomatoes?
The tomato is late summers’ most cherished and delicious produce pick, not to mention a nutritious and versatile choice as well. One medium tomato contains only 25 calories and provides a good source of both vitamin C and vitamin A, nutrients important for skin health and immune health.
Chunk Fresh Tomato Salsa - Serves 6
1 small red onion, coarsely chopped
1 medium green bell pepper, coarsely chopped
1 small bunch fresh parsley, stems removed
2 large tomatoes
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
salt (optional)
black pepper, ground (optional)
In a food processor, combine the onion, bell pepper, and parsley leaves and process for 10 seconds, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Process until the mixture is finely chopped.
Cut the tomatoes crosswise in half and squeeze out most of the juice and seeds. Chop the tomatoes coarsely, then add to the vegetables in the processor. Pulse several times to make a coarse puree that contains little bits of onion and tomato. Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl and stir in the vinegar and lemon juice.
In a small skillet, toast the cumin over low heat, stirring, for 2 to 3 minutes, or just until the cumin starts to smoke. Stir into the salsa and season with salt and black pepper, if desired. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. (Can be kept in the refrigerator up to 1 week.)

Health Tip of the Week
Mistakes Happen
Preventable medical errors cause more deaths than car accidents, breast cancer or AIDS. Your doctor has hundreds of patients and may not remember your health history. Speak up about drug allergies, other medications you are taking, treatment concerns you have, or questions you want answered.
