Opened: Royal Fried Chicken: Upon first inspection, I wasn’t sure if this place was real or not. But, judging by the Yelp reviews, it boasts amazing popcorn chicken, fries, coleslaw, and five-star reviews all around. Also one that says, “Perfect spot for a date night.” So grab your hunny, or some friends, and get some […]
In recent news, the national administration has trimmed and furloughed workers in the FAA and NOAA. Because flight-safety and weather are clearly two concerns we are completely on top of right now.

When studying energy in biology, students learn that the mitochondria are the powerhouses of the cell; about the many chemical reactions of glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and the electron transport chain… but less covered is the great mystery of metabolism. We understand our pulse and that our beating hearts move resources around our bodies, but […]

Struggling to turn over the pedals as I climb up a hill on my bike with a 33-pound bag on my back – yes, I weighed it – I narrowly make my way through a traffic light before it turns red. It’s February, and I’ve just arrived in Washington, DC where I’m visiting friends for […]
Before earning the moniker the “Creative Capital” (or even “PVD” for that matter), Providence struggled to rebrand itself as the Renaissance City through the 1990’s.
