  3. What a shock. Former PC basketball star and Florida coach Billy Donovan has agreed to terms with the Orlando Magic for 5 yrs and $ 28 mil. Rick Patino didn't make it in the NBA and I don't think Billy will either. Their coaching style won't work there.

    NBA Talk

    Oh my. Florida coach Billy Donovan has agreed to terms with the Orlando Magic for 5 yrs for $ 28mil. Rick Patino didn't make it in the NBA, and neither will Billy. I don't think their coaching style fits in the NBA.
  5. C.F. is top pick for T stop. If a commuter rail stop is to be built along the Amtrak lines coursing through Central Falls and Pawtucket, the place where the trains would actually stop should be in Central Falls, a consultant study has concluded. http://www.pawtuckettimes.com/site/news.cf...24491&rfi=6

  7. Strange, it's never taken me more than 2-3 days to get my permanant license even though they tell you it'll take up to 2 weeks. I think it's mailed from someplace near Worcester by a private company.
  8. I just bought a new computer w/Vista and was wondering if anyone here has had experience using Vista. Any do's and don't's that I should know about? On onther note I just heard on CNN that Apple has sold over 100 mil IPOD's.
  9. It's beautiful outside! I'll give it a 10 Hope it's like this for the rest of Spring/Summer. Yeah right.
  10. Yikes!!! Runawayjim, your now at 5,657 posts. Is there no stopping you! According to UP rules and regulations, when you reach 10,000 posts you must take everyone in the forum out for drinks. Hey, not my rules.
  11. The National Weather Service had issued a tornado watch for Providence & Washington counties today, from late afternoon til 7pm. Thankfully nothing occured and were all safe.
  12. From the projo blog.............. Wondering when Cianci will really be back? Now in federal prison on a corruption charge, he could return to Rhode Island by June 1 and serve the final weeks of his sentence on home confinement. -- projo.com staff writer Michael P. McKinney
  13. PROVIDENCE -- The city Retirement Board reversed itself today and voted to reduce by 99 percent the pension for Kathleen M. Parsons, a former Parks Department office manager who emblezzled parks money for a gambling habit. (projo blog)
  14. I guess I now have a partial answer. Providence set to strip ex-police leaders
  15. I have no answer for this. Did former Providence Police chief Prignano ever get his pension? (Plumder Dome).
  16. Here's my rant for today. From projo's blog. Pension OK'd for ex-parks employee who embezzled PROVIDENCE -- The city's Retirement Board voted today not to revoke the pension of a former parks employee convicted of embezzling and then could not decide whether to reduce the pension she is receiving. http://www.beloblog.com/ProJo_Blogs/newsblog/

    I could not believe the way the Tampa Bay fans were booing their team during and after game 6, and in their own building. TB played hard yesterday, and came close to tying up the game late in the 3rd period. Shame on TB fans for showing little class.
  18. Am I losing it, or do I hear fireworks going off in the Providence/East Providence area right now?
