A HOUSEHOLD PRODUCTION ANALYSIS OF FUELWOOD DEMAND IN RHODE ISLAND
A model analyzing household substitution of fuelwood for other heating fuels is needed to clarify the relationship between energy prices and patterns of forest resource utilization. This paper employs the household production methodology to model fuelwood demand in Rhode Island. Data from a cross-sectional survey of 515 households are employed to test a discrete-choice model of household participation in wood-burning and a four-equation system modeling household production of heat and aesthetic benefits from fuelwood and stove capital. Control of selection bias via inclusion of an appropriate instrument allows analysis of aggregate demands. Some broad policy prescriptions applicable to the Northeast generally are presented.Resource /Energy Economics and Policy,
Evaluation of cyclic resistance of providence silts using mini-cone penetration and standard penetration tests.
SPR-229-2292Most areas of coastal Rhode Island are underlain by thick layers of non-plastic silt and it is important toknow if the existing standard-of-practice liquefaction potential evaluations (e.g. Robertson and Wride (1998) orSeed et al. (1985)) are accurate. The objective of this research was to critically evaluate the applicability of CPTand SPT based approaches to Providence silts. This was accomplished through a laboratory testing programinvolving the URI mini-cone calibration chamber and cyclic triaxial tests to develop a new relationship betweencyclic resistance ratio and tip resistance for Providence silt. The new relationship was compared to the standard-ofpracticeliquefaction potential evaluation methods from the literature. There was good agreement between theapproaches which shows that the existing field-based CPT methods are applicable to Rhode Island silts. This isconsistent with previous RIDOT funded research on the liquefaction potential evaluation of silts in Rhode Island(Bradshaw et al. 2007; 2007a; Baxter et al. 2008).An attempt was also made to evaluate SPT-based approaches in silt using the mini-cone and laboratorycyclic data. A qc/N60 correlation was evaluated from two loose silt sites in Rhode Island where SPT and CPTswere performed adjacent to each other. The agreement between blow counts and tip resistance was very poor, mostlikely due to the small number of tests and small range of in situ densities. Because of the poor agreement, it wasnot possible to directly evaluate the SPT-based liquefaction evaluation approaches in the study

Official Program, Springfield College vs. University of Rhode Island, October 30, 1965
The official program from the October 30, 1965 football game, Springfield College vs. University of Rhode Island. The game took place on the campus of University of Rhode Island. The program contains information on the two colleges, the lineups and information on the teams, and advertisements. Springfield won the game 7 to 6.The 1965 Springfield College Football team went 9-0-0 and remains the only College Football team to go undefeated and untied during a season. Springfield College’s opponents in ’65-'66 were the US. Coast Guard (30-14), Amherst College (13-0), Williams College (28-8), Colby College (42-13), Northeastern University (16-14), American International College (43-6), Rhode Island University (7-6), University of New Hampshire (43-13), and Wagner College (30-13). The game against Amherst College was televised on Channel 22 and was the first Western Mass football game ever televised in the region. The team received many honors, including Ted Dunn being named UPI New England College Division Coach of the Year and several players received honors including being selected for the All Decade Team. The team came in second to the University of Maine for selection for a bid to play in the Tangerine Bowl in Orlando, FL, December 11, 1965
