"within two to three weeks" was the official line from the state when I wrote about this in February.

Reply to Does anyone know how I can access archived issues of the Providence Journal? Im looking for an article from March of 1974 by HunkaHunkaBerningCow
Also using Newsbank, it looks like I can search articles (although not whole pages) from the projo from March 1974.
What's the exact date? Article title? Keywords? About?
However, I second the suggestion to ask the library as well.

If it works (decently), I second the buy nothing groups, Craigslist free or donate to PVD Things.

Reply to Anyone at Hadestown at PPAC last night? We were in the Loge, found it hard to understand what was being said/sung, and at intermission, everyone pulled out there phones to figure out what was going on. by quinnkurk
Balcony, second dress circle, also there on Saturday night.
While I normally complain about the sound quality at PPAC, mostly that the instruments overwhelm the voices, this time, I thought it was fine.

Reply to Best way to get to Logan Airport by Psychological_Tune53
I do Amtrak (as low as $8 or x2$16 if you buy in advance) or commuter rail ($12.25 or x2$24.50) to silver line. Far less than parking.
Or, drive to Braintree and take the shuttle.
Linked below a few of the recent threads where this issue (cost/means) has been broadly discussed.

Reply to Fios internet alternatives? by [deleted]
I pay for $54.99 for the "Fios Internet 100/100." Used to be $40 for the first year. Rarely have outages. Is plenty fast.
Edit: I don't pay rental fees for equipment. Bought my own router and they don't charge for the modem.

Reply to comment by kbd77 in Bill would create $50-million revolving fund to develop public housing by kbd77
Please consider a subscription. Current deal is $1 for 3 months.
tl;dr
>The takeaway: Montgomery County acts a "public developer" — meaning that HOC is building new housing on land that it often already owns, rather than simply relying on the private sector to create more units. It's invested $100 million in a revolving fund that's accelerated the construction process and is expected to produce about 1,500 units every four or five years. And it focuses on creating mixed-income housing, also known as “social housing."

It’s not behind a paywall. If you’re hitting a paywall, it’s because you’ve hit your limit of metered stories.

>PROVIDENCE − The Cranston Street Armory in Providence should transition back into an empty building by the end of April while the state continues to look for additional shelter spaces, state leaders told a room full of West End and South Providence residents Thursday night.
>The "warming station" at the armory, run by the nonprofit Amos House, was supposed to stop operations by April 15 when it opened at the beginning of December 2022. That exit date has been pushed to the end of April, Housing Secretary Stefan Pryor said.

Expect your car insurance to increase. Not sure about living in Pawtucket, but when I moved, my insurance went up over $100/month.
