  • Infrastructure Bank Versus Baseball Stadium,Opinion: Pawsox
    The Rosters Are A’Roarin’: Home Season Begins The hottest part of a flame is closest to the source. In this case, the greatest competition in roller derby is always at home – home season that is! Last year, spectators witnessed home bouts that ended with single points separating the teams or rolling into overtime. When you pit athletes who know one another so well against each other, you’re going to get some fight-to-the-finish finales! Subtract veteran derby girls and add newly established skaters, and you never know what is going to happen! This year’s three home bouts will take place one Saturday per month at the Alex & Ani Outdoor Rink in downtown Providence. On July 25, it will be Old Money Honeys versus the Sakonnet River Roller Rats. On Aug 29, you’ll see the Mob Squad battle against the Sakonnet River Roller Rats. Then on Sept 19, the Old Money Honeys will go skate-to-skate with the Mob Squad. After all is rolled and won, after the victories and the points have been tallied, we will conclude this year’s season with the Home Team Championship Double Header at Teamworks in Warwick on Oct 10! Tickets are available for the Providence bouts now at ProvidenceRollerDerby.com. Before you turn the page, get to know your teams! Without further adieu, I present to you PRD’s home team rosters. Mob Squad: (Captain) Smashley Olsen, Baby Fighterfly, Beat-Trix LeStrangle, Boones Harm, Caped Crusk8ter, Citizen Toxie, Death Rochelle, Dita Von Muerta, Elsie Ya Later, Freak’n’Awesome, Goldie Glocks, Lana Arvina, Shotz of Petrone, Shreddy Roosevelt, Sun Scream, Terror Swift, Toni Montana and Varla Gunz.

  • Go Left, Young Man! Racetracks Abound Just Over the Border, So Pack a Lunch and Get Out
    Take a Hike! Bring leaf peeping to a whole nother level RI offers a variety of hiking trails, each with its own style, terrain and level of difficulty. Some trails are ideal for fishing, while others are popular for bird watching or dog walking. Some showcase the area’s wildflowers, while others are more accessible to children. The weather has to be pretty severe to keep me out of the woods on my day off, so you can find me wandering around many of these trails in the rain, shine or snow, but the cool air and the colorful landscape of fall make it my favorite time to be outside. Hiking gear can be fun to shop for, but it can also be expensive. You don’t need much. Basic supplies, appropriate clothing and decent footwear will do. I recently emptied out my traditional hiking backpack and moved all of my gear into a sling-style bag. The single strap makes it easier to slide on and off at rest stops. The prolonged weight on one shoulder would likely be a hindrance on a longer excursion, but for an afternoon jaunt, the sling has been ideal. I always carry a long-sleeved t-shirt in my bag in case the temperature unexpectedly drops. I also bring water, food, a small first-aid kit, sunscreen and various fire starters. A handkerchief is useful to place items on when the ground is wet, and I never go anywhere without a pocketknife. Appropriate footwear is key while hiking. Running shoes or heavy-duty sneakers have proven to be ideal for most of the marked trails in the area, which are pretty well groomed.

  • Mayor's Message: Summer Is Officially Here!
    Mayor's message: Summer is officially here! July 07, 2010 - Rhode Island There can be no better time for outdoor activities than our summer months, and there can be no better place to enjoy them than right here, in Providence. Our capital city is fast gaining an international reputation for its extraordinary quality of life. From the New York Times, which hails us as the "Mecca for Tourism and the Arts," to Travel and Leisure magazine, which has awarded us its annual Top Arts and Culture award for the past several years, to Yahoo's 2010 Top Underrated Cities, we are a great destination. And once you're here, we are pretty sure we can convince you why it makes sense to stay. One of the key location decisions for any business owner is what the community's quality of life is. In my administration, it is of paramount importance. When I assumed office seven years ago, one of my first priorities was to bring the arts to the neighborhoods, so everyone - regardless of means - had equal access. We also worked to ensure a vibrant downtown nightlife that respected the people and businesses who lived and worked there, understanding that the arts and entertainment had as much of an economic impact as a social one. And we built a strong system of neighborhood parks - alive with free music, high-quality performances and year-round programming. To sample what we have to offer, I encourage you to visit Providence at www.providencethecreativecapital.com to or www.providenceri.com for details. For instance, we've created - in partnership with the Black Repertory Theatre - a one of a kind July SoundSession.

  • March 2012 Dear FOOT Leader Alums! We Made It Through Another Year
    March 2012 Dear FOOT Leader Alums! We made it through another year, and I am happy to report that we had our largest number of FOOT participants than ever! So FOOT is still growing strong and is super popular. And we even made it back to campus before Hurricane Irene hit. In fact, the trips returned Friday and Irene hit Saturday. Many of our trails and roads in Vermont and the Catskills were wiped out. Princeton went out a week later and not only had to reroute all their trips, but because another huge rain event occurred, it had to evacuate all their trips and return to campus early. A logistical nightmare! We have a special treat for you this year. I had some current FOOT Leaders model all the T-Shirts from all the years, so at the beginning of your class notes, check out the shirt and see if you can find yours tucked away in some drawer! Here is a great story of the FOOT connections from Mackenzie Wehner: “I hope you're doing great. I just got an email from Bevan about sending in our updates for the year, and I wanted to tell you the very cool thing that happened because of it: I looked quickly through last year's newsletter to remember what I wrote and what to write, and I stumbled upon an update from the class of 1991 that said something about trekking in Morocco and knowing a great guide. I happen to be going to Morocco next week and am frantically planning a trek there, so I looked up the alum (Josh Barkan) on the Yale Alumni website and sent him an email.
