They want to push other energy investing out of renewables to pull up the ladder behind them.

Reply to comment by SomeGuyFromRI in Newport St Patrick’s Parade by Frosty-Vegetable-385
Honestly get there early, park at the gateway and walk down Thames as far as you can get. The hike back is worth the hassle. The local radio station WADK does parade coverage so if you want to pop the listen live on and jump into a coffee house or something you can get a pretty good idea of how long you have before the parade gets close to you. I used to have family who lived near Thames Street Glass, which is not far from the grandstand at the end of the parade route so you ended up with the various drum and fife/ drill teams and other stuff getting to stop and handle a bit of performance for you sometimes.

Half off wings at Tomaselli's at Rosario on Wednesdays now starting at $5/6 wings

Tomaselli's at Rosario changed their Wednesday wings special from 50 cent wings to half price wings which is about 84 cents a wing (at $5/6 wings) but the flavors are pretty baller.

Reply to comment by myleftone in Tina Weymouth, Talking Heads/Tom-Tom Club (1983) by So_Do_You_Like_Stuff
The band Talking Heads formed up in Providence, RI between a group of Visual Arts students going to the Rhode Island School Of Design. Choreography and costumes and set design is a big piece of the performance.
Weymouth picked up bass to fill a space, the bassist they had recruited dropped out. This is why the bass lines in '77 are a little less complex than going forward, she's moving from guitar to bass and still learning the instrument.

Providence has specific regulations and you need to follow health department regulations as well.

Chickens are 1 per 800 square feet of land, no roosters, coops cannot be on shared fencing, must include a fenced enclosure and be well maintained.

The Wave App doesn't do tracking, I like the Transit App which tracks fairly well, and has MBTA tracking as well. Children 5 and under are free when accompanied by an adult.

There's a documentary about that, basically by being an adult movie theater they could derive enough profit to pour back into the arts and maintaining the space.
