propane is tricky as it has less btu per gallon equivelant than oil. it depends on the costs of each at the moment, and you can get into tank rental fees, and then you are pretty much stuck with whatever propane suppiler you go with. Someone who was locked in at $3.10 for propane noted oil needed to be $4.30 or more for propane to be a better deal. I think that included the propane equipment being a bit more efficient in the calc. Personally, I'd stick with oil over propane.

not really an easy answer on how much you will save, you have to do the math. A lot of times people just save money because they are going to more efficient boilers, or their old systems were oversized (lots of oil boilers installed are much bigger than required for some reason).

Call around and get a quote for the conversion costs. When I was looking it was anywhere from $5k-$10k depending on the installer. RIEnergy has some rebates available for some equipment- https://www.rienergy.com/RI-Home/Energy-Saving-Programs/rebate-programs

CD1 was competative, but Cicillinne and Gordon Fox gerry mandered CD1 and took large parts of PVD into it to rig it for Cicilinne. Langivan was pissed at the time. 2011- https://www.golocalprov.com/news/cicil

>The latest redistricting map released Monday by the state’s redistricting commission would force more than 100,000 voters to shift congressional districts while moving Burrillville, North Smithfield and Smithfield out of the 1st District. Former Congressional candidate John Loughlin won those three towns by 2,976 votes in 2010 and North Smithfield and Smithfield were, by percentage, his largest victories in the district. > >The key for the former Providence Mayor would be the addition of South Providence, which would make more than 70 percent of the capital city part of the 1st District. Cicilline won Providence in 2010 with 69.2 percent of the 17,681 votes cast in the city.

dont forget how he handled the Providence Economic Development Partnership loan program. I'm sure there is plenty to spread around at the RI Foundation, and I'm sure whoever gets funds will show their gratitude$$$ to him

Might as well get the FBI an office in the RI Foundation if Davey is going to run it.

pasta straws are better, but still rare. more places need to get them.

in-person also makes sense as a lot of to go drinks are in plastic cups or cups with a coating makign them non recyclable.

Dr Wade of Drs. Wade & Saccoccio in Warwick. Both are great really, husband and wife team, can't go wrong with either, Dr Wade just always has a good story to tell while working :) Neither are judgemental either, so if you haven't been in a while they will get you on the right track without making you feel bad everytime they look in your mouth. I inheritied bad teeth :( but never any issue going to Dr Wade. Won't go anywhere else.

I think updating a news story would involve a disclaimer saying what was changed and why. Its probably more efficient to make a new story as new info comes out and letting the old one stand with its publication date. Probably dates back to and reflects on print editions of newspapers, and that history even if print still isnt the primary delivery anymore.

you think that didn't happen with the yokels going nuts in the state at the time?

There were people asking Gina to use the coast guard to patrol the coast to make sure they weren't coming in that way, and she respond like it was a good idea they would consider instead of dismissing it as ridiculous. Others were upset that there would be NY'ers using area hospital beds. The RI yokels were out of control and ridiculous with their demands.

Reddit was all on board! Fellow Americans? Fuck them! It was the most absurd bullshit ever. 1/2 of the support came from the Raimondo can do no wrong fan club, never saw a bigger bunch of clowns! Here are a couple of classic reddit threads from then:

paying property taxes, and not even using the public facilities like schools. yea, fuck those people, rite?

it was targeted imtimidation. They were trying to deny NY'er use of their property.

With Transformers fans, its perfectly ok to go to aliexpress and buy knock off bootleg transformers. No one will shit on you for doing it. Everyone would prefer the real thing, but sometimes availability or price are concerns. These are mostly with out of production stuff, so not sure how much it affects hasbros bottom line, but there is no respect of intellectual property as a lot of it is branded Transformers.

Out of state buyers came in and pushed up prices. Vacation homes in RI are a bargain compared to other places. Covid remote working allowed others to come to RI because houses were cheaper than where they were. Covid also saw people spending lots of time at home move if they wanted more space at home, or renovate their homes, so a lot of home sales that would have trickled out into supply were kind of rushed into it, so theres no backlog of homes to come on market or if you renovated you are staying for a bit. The high prices and high interest rates makes it so everyone that didn't buy recently have a better situation than what they could buy into now so they are staying put. Rates are still high, but prices have backed off peak a bit so anyone thinking of selling now missed the high point and will be less likely to sell. The only people moving right now are those who have to for some reason, like work.

Lots of reasons really. The market will work itself out, but not any time soon.

he rejected groups outside of state control. when I said you have to read the whole section, understanding it was implied in that statement, I didn't think I had to explicitly state 'you have to read and understand the whole section'

The whole document defines a socialist system where the state controls all resources, including labor, and the state is put above the individual.

Edit 'cause comments are locked:

He doesn't reject socialism, he rejects groups functioning outside of state, or not in sync with the state

Read this -> Fascism is therefore opposed to Socialism to which unity within the State (which amalgamates classes into a single economic and ethical reality) is unknown,

As this-> > Fascism is therefore opposed to Socialism to WHICH unity within the State is unknown and WHICH sees in history nothing but the class struggle >The State amalgamates classes into a single economic and ethical reality

Then he says it a little more clearly for trade groups > Fascism is likewise opposed to trade unionism as a class weapon.

The state is an equalizer, there are no classes under fascism, so if a group is divisive on a class basis, its not in line with fascism. if its not in sync with the state, its rejected.

But these groups are all good if they fall under the state. Their concerns are real and they will have an equal seat at the table under fascism.

>giving them due weight in the guild or corporative system in which divergent interests are coordinated and harmonized in the unity of the State

Theres a lot there, you getting it? He rejects class warfare and groups or philosophies that push it, because you know, fascism has eliminated the class divisions. When in sync with the state tho, those groups and philosophies get a seat at the table. There is no rejection of socialism, but a rejection of the basis of it as a divisive class struggle. He sets up a socialist state, where the state has control of all resources(including labor), but its totally not socialism because there is no class struggle or conflict under fascism as that problem was solved.

You have to read the whole section and not pick one line from it. He rejects groups that divide individuals into class orgs and function independent of the state, but if those groups and their interests under state control, its all good.

>No individuals or groups (political parties, cultural associations, economic unions, social classes) outside the State. Fascism is therefore opposed to Socialism to which unity within the State (which amalgamates classes into a single economic and ethical reality) is unknown, and which sees in history nothing but the class struggle. Fascism is likewise opposed to trade unionism as a class weapon. But when brought within the orbit of the State, Fascism recognizes the real needs which gave rise to socialism and trade unionism, giving them due weight in the guild or corporative system in which divergent interests are coordinated and harmonized in the unity of the State.

Go back and re-read the Doctrine on fascism, looks like you missed its key points.

Mussolini's doctrine on fascism defines fascism as his implementation of socialism.

Fascism=socialism, and communism go hand in hand with stateism. Nationalism when used talking about socialism or communism isn't the nationalism most understand as pride in their country, but its akin to stateism, meaning putting the nation or the state above the individual, which is essential for socialism/fascism or communism to control resources.
