in Health

I don't know about the Highland Court situation, but as a longtime patient of Dr. Kerzner's, I have always found him to be competent, compassionate, professional and dignified. In the 90's, I was admitted to Miriam Hospital for a lengthy stay of 19 days. Each day,he came to inquire about my well-being, relieve my anxieties, etc. Numerous hospital staff related to me how fortunate I was to be under his care during that period. I have always received the best medical attention from this fine man and suggest that he be shown respect at this difficult time.

oh, and @Paul Marshall, last time I checked, Schilling was a card carrying, dyed-in-the-wool conservative Republican. So your point re: liberals would be what again?

Peter, i don't see how your comment negates rowley's point. Many people are hypocritical. And I don't see rowley exactly defending Schilling's character here, just that he's like anyone else (chasing down capital). The point is that the government doesn't have to provide him with it.

And, Tom, i guess you missed the part where rowley blamed "Democrats AND Republicans"... You still aren't really reading these articles, are you? LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL!!!!!!!!!!!

Raimondo has used this as a perfect opportunity to attack Chafee. Chafee of course is an Independent, and an easy target by anyone. This is clearly an opportunist moment. Now if she went after another Democrat such as Cicilline (whom she supports) one may be convinced of her primary motives of doing the right thing.

Chafee has no idea what he is doing and this company should have been watched from the beginning. Clearly nobody in state government was doing their job.

John, I don't know what is worse, all these players transfering at will or schools jumping to different conferences. It's gotten out of hand in both instances.

450 college players transfering. That's rediculous!!! How about making them sit out two years instead of one?

Gerald Coleman... I also heard Northeastern. Maybe Coleman thinks there is a bidding war for his services. SORRY John, but he really is not that good. I am certainly not going to lose any sleep wondering where he will end up. I lost alot of respect for him.

With the BE conference schedule going to 20, PC scheduling a URI game in the middle of the season will be enough of a challenge.

Hey John, heard thru the grapevine of a Baylor-Kentucky women/men doubleheader in December at the Cowboy Stadium in Arlington, Texas. That excites me more than Coleman or that Duke Mondy is at Oakland-MI who now want to take Butler's spot in the Horizon

I can't help but draw comparisons to this debacle and the way too many cities and towns in Rhode Island put THEMSELVES into untenable positions by inking unsustainable contracts with labor, handcuffing themselves into a corner, thus putting more and more of the burden on the tax payers.

@Lance: Excellent points.
One also has to ask what "oversight" the legislative bodies like "Senate Govt. Oversight Cmte" was actually providing.

And: what was our great governor doing with his time? He knew this loan was ultra-risky, yet did nothing until the last second.

Raimondo is Right...it takes substantial time to go broke.
My guess is that "Chafe-Me" was too concerned with his "Social Justice Agenda" to be concerned with the JOBS and TAXPAYER MONEY in this case....just what vindictive game was our Village Idiot playing here?

We have to STOP VOTING FOR LIBERALS.

From: Many Struggle to Find Work After $3.7 Million Jobs Program

in News

The green construction job training program was funded with a $3.72 million American Recovery and Reinvestment Act grant Providence Plan applied for in 2009, when now U.S. Rep. David Cicilline was mayor of Providence. Attempts to reach Cicilline for comment were unsuccessful. Here again, Cicilline campaigned on bringing more jobs back to RI. Ok David, where are the jobs? We know you got one when you were elected.
This is another example of a failed federal program to generate jobs. The government cannot be in the job producing business - it always ends up in failure. What the government can do is reform the taxes that are way too high, cut the spending which is bankrupting this country and get rid of the regulations that are making it difficult for businesses to get started. It’s not rocket science people but it is hard to get the politics out of the way. We need elected officials that will work for the people they represent, not the special interests.

Nobody seems to be thinking about the fate of the now unemployed people who worked at 38 Studios. For example, the video gaming industry is aware that a number of them accepted a deal to move to Rhode Island that now leaves them holding the bag on two mortgages (with no job). Some investigative reporter needs to look into this.

I have always question how effective this ”corporation” really is. These fiefdoms usually end up failing and get mired in corruption investigations. They are also dumping grounds for political appointees to encourage favorable rulings on questionable projects. No one has asked the question of the performance record of this “corporation”. What companies have started in this state and are still here? I think we all know that answer.
The only way this state will crawl out of this recession is through tax reform and serious spending cuts. With a state budget approaching $8 Billion dollars and taxes going through the roof, people are fed up and those that can leave are heading for the border. When the principle employer of the state is government, you know you have a problem.

This type of venture capital investing only works when you spread the risk. A million dollars each for 75 companies is one thing, but $75 million for one company is just a hail Mary pass. At least when the state spent millions for Digital Equipment Company they weren't left empty handed. After that failure they had shiny new on / off ramps and a business park they could use to compete with the private sector.
The State should take a lesson from the successful parents of college students- You're better off buying the building, then just paying four years of rent.
