Project receives $1 million in state funds, $5 million in federal stimulus
"Our Administration continues to work with cities and towns across the state to invest in our communities and protect public safety resources," said Lieutenant Governor Murray. "We are proud to partner with the federal government and the town of Ware on a project that will put people to work and protect the residents and businesses in this community."
Currently, the Town of Ware's only fire station has been deemed structurally deficient. With this funding, the town will be able to build a new, modern fire station. Ware has already expended funds to purchase land and also complete water testing and design for the new fire station. By working closely with Senator John Kerry and Congressman Olver, the town was awarded $5 million in federal funding for the project, and the town's application was one of only three communities nationwide to receive a grant of $5 million or more.
"This has always been a huge priority for Ware and it should be because it's the difference between life and death. Chief Coulombe told me this new station was critical so we worked together to get the federal funding and now along with this state investment Ware is going to get it built," said Senator Kerry.
"Earlier this year, the Ware Fire Station received the third largest federal award in the nation and was one of only two recipients in Massachusetts. It is a testament to the hard work of Chief Coulombe and his Department," said Congressman Olver. "The current station has served the town well, but it is in need of repair and simply does not meet the needs of a 21st Century fire department. I am pleased that this partnership of federal and state dollars will allow the town to move forward with construction on a state-of-the-art facility that will enhance the ability of firefighters to respond to emergencies for years to come."
"This is a wonderful opportunity for the citizens of Ware to benefit and construct a new state of the art fire station," said Fire Chief Thomas Coulombe, Town of Ware. "This is possible because of the partnership and hard work of federal, state and local officials working together. I would like to thank everyone who has helped make this possible."
"I am thrilled to join Lieutenant Governor Murray and the Town of Ware to announce the award of this funding. It has been an honor to work alongside the Town, Chief Coulombe and Congressman Olver who have worked tirelessly to see this project move forward. I applaud the community for working toward improving infrastructure and public safety with this funding," said Senator Stephen M. Brewer.
"I appreciate the commitment of the Governor and Lieutenant Governor in understanding the importance of this new Fire Station for the Town of Ware. Their financial support is necessary to make sure that the Fire Station is built to ensure the safety of the community," said Representative Anne Gobi.

New Panthers general manager Dave Gettleman wore the New York Giants' latest Super Bowl ring to his introductory news conference Tuesday, and talked about winning another one with his new team.
When he came to Charlotte last week for his interview, Gettleman told Panthers owner Jerry Richardson about his Super Bowl vision. He shared it the following morning with head coach Ron Rivera, a day after Gettleman had been named GM.
I told Mr. Richardson in the interview, I told Ron when we had breakfast Thursday morning, said Gettleman, who won two titles with the Giants and one with Denver. I said, 'If we do this right, you and I are holding up the trophy with Mr. Richardson.'
Gettleman, 61, waited 25 years for his first GM job. After he did not get a sniff for any of the four GM openings last offseason, Gettleman took a step back in the Giants' pro personnel department a move he said he initiated.
Gettleman went from running the department to the newly created position of senior pro personnel analyst, and began thinking about his personal and professional legacy. But when the Panthers hired former Giants GM Ernie Accorsi a longtime friend and former colleague of Gettleman to consult on the search, Gettleman thought he might finally get his chance.
I'm not an idiot, Gettleman said, drawing laughter at a press conference attended by his family, the media and much of the Panthers' brass, including Richardson, Rivera and team president Danny Morrison.
Gettleman declined to discuss his contract details.
Gettleman said he believes his age was a deterrent in getting interview opportunities for previous GM jobs.
It's about the person doing the hiring, Gettleman said. I just needed someone who was looking for an older, more mature guy. That's really what it came down.
Gettleman said he agreed with former Panthers GM Marty Hurney's philosophy of building through the draft. He also said there are good bargains to be found in free agency.
Asked to describe the Panthers' salary cap situation they are projected to be $16 million over next year's cap Gettleman declined, saying he needed more time to evaluate the roster.
As for inheriting a coach he didn't hire, Gettleman said it's the same situation Giants GM Jerry Reese faced with Tom Coughlin in 2007 after Reese replaced Accorsi.
If you remember, Tom was under incredible heat. We'd gone to the playoffs. (Carolina) had come up there in '05 and just kicked our fanny. Then in '06 we go 8-8. We struggled to get in the playoffs. Tom was under a tremendous amount of heat, Gettleman said. It's the same situation. My responsibility is to make everybody better. My job is to support everyone, to get their input and move forward with clear lines of communication, teamwork. That's my job.
With Coughlin as coach, Reese and the Giants won the Super Bowl the next season.

House Gives Final OK To Maine Wage Increase Bill
By GLENN ADAMS
AUGUSTA, Maine (AP) â¿¿ Acting without debate Tuesday, the Maine House gave final passage to a bill to raise Maine's $7.50 hourly minimum wage in stages to $9, and sent it to the Senate for a final vote.
While the LePage administration spoke against the bill at a hearing last month, it's unclear what action Republican Gov. Paul LePage would take if the Senate passes the bill and sends it to him, spokeswoman Adrienne Bennett said.
"We're waiting until it gets to the governor's desk," Bennett said. The Senate is expected to take a final vote on the bill Wednesday.The bill seeks to raise Maine's $7.50 minimum to $9 per hour in three increments ending July 1, 2016. The minimum after that would be adjusted annually for inflation. Supporters say the minimum wage has remained at $7.50 since 2009 and has not kept up with rising prices. But the state Labor Department testified against it during a March 14 hearing, saying Maine's minimum is higher than the national minimum wage of $7.25 an hour. In her testimony on the original bill before it was amended in committee, Labor Department Director of Legislative Affairs Susan Wasserott said that annually adjusting the wage for inflation "will detrimentally affect enforcement and compliance" with the minimum wage law. "Inspectors will have new enforcement requirements every year," and the change will be confusing to employers, she said. Business groups, including the Maine State Chamber of Commerce, restaurant and innkeepers' groups, opposed the bill, while the Maine AFL-CIO, advocates for women and low-income Mainers, and the Maine Education Association teachers' union joined supporters. "We know that Maine can end homelessness, and establishing a minimum wage that approaches a livable wage is a significant foothold in this effort," Danna Hayes of the Preble Street Maine Hunger Initiative testified.

Shadow JagoTalk0
this wiki
|Unknown (Presumably same as Jago: 6'1" / 185 cm)
Unknown (Presumably same as Jago: 205 lbs)
Unknown (presumably evil)
Unknown (Presumably Gargos)
— Shadow Jago
Shadow Jago is an evil duplicate of Jago introduced in Killer Instinct for Xbox One as a character given to players who purchased a Day One 12-month Xbox Live membership card. Despite him being a different character from Jago, he still utilizes the same moveset as him.
Shadow Jago is the true final boss of Killer Instinct (2013), being fought instead at the end of the ladder in place of Fulgore under special conditions.
In appearance, Shadow Jago is identical to Jago except for a few key changes. His skin is pale blue, he has pupil-less eyes, has chains in place of rope wrapped around his torso, and various articles of clothing are tattered. His facemask is also stylized after a skeletal jaw in the mouth area. Rather than Jago's scimitar, Shadow Jago wields a serrated, saw-like blade.
Although his moveset is identical to Jago's, the visual effects are differen in order to reflect Shadow Jago better (the fire in Jago's Endokuken is changed to a black, shadowy effect, etc.).
His voice is also more sinister than Jago's. Even though his voice is different, both Jagos share the same quotes.
Nothing is known about Shadow Jago, though his connection to Gargos strongly implies that he represents Jago's ultimate fate if he does not resist the demon's influence and purge himself of Gargos presence within himself.
Fighting Shadow Jago
Shadow Jago is not fought in Arcade Mode by conventional means and must be unlocked to fight. In order to fight him, you must see all three endings of a character in Arcade Mode, regardless of difficulty. After doing that, that character (or any other character that has all three endings) must go through Arcade Mode again on at least Medium or higher difficulty. The player must not lose one fight, get two Supreme Victories, one Ultra before the Rival character, and Ultra the Rival character to unlock the Shadow Jago fight. If the conditions are met, the final fight against Fulgore is skipped and Shadow Jago is fought in the Shadow Tiger's Lair instead.
This unplayable version of Shadow Jago has been tweaked in a few ways. He has a completely new move, the Ninja Slide from Killer Instinct 2, which, when used, allows him to slide across the floor, hitting his opponent and ending up on the opposite side of them. The Shadow version of this move goes back and forth from each side of the opponent multiple times. Shadow Jago has also been given a dive kick. He also has buffed stats, including super armor on some moves and the ability to shoot two Endokukens at once, rather than just one.
If Shadow Jago is defeated, a new ending sequence showing a montage of all the characters of Season 1 and the Shadow Tiger's Lair is unlocked.
The playable version of Shadow Jago's moveset is indentical to Jago's. The unplayable boss version has some slightly altered statistics.
Command Attacks
- Double Roundhouse - Shadow Jago advances forward, delivering one roundhouse kick with each foot consecutively
- Neck Cutter - Drawing his sword, Shadow Jago slashes downwards, hitting overhead
Special Moves
- Wind Kick - Shadow Jago flies forward in a straight kick - Works as a combo opener, linker, and ender
- Laser Sword - Shadow Jago draws his sword, swinging it upward, denoted by a trail of dark, purple flames - Works as a combo opener, linker, and ender
- Tiger Fury - Shadow Jago flies upward, delivering an uppercut as he ascends - Only works as a combo ender
- Endokuken - Shadow Jago throws a dark purple fireball at his opponent (boss version throws two, consecutively) - Only works as a combo ender
- Ninja Slide (?) (boss version only) - Shadow Jago slides across the ground in a forward kick, allowing him to move to the other side of his opponent on hit - Combo functions unknown
Instinct Mode
- Tiger's Fury (?) (playable version only) - Shadow Jago channels his power, causing his tattoos to glow, and gives himself the ability to regenerate health over time when not being hit, as well as gaining +2 on all attacks on hit as well as on block
- Gargos' Fury (?) (boss version only) - Shadow Jago channels his power, causing his tattoos to glow, and gives himself the ability to gradually siphon meter from his opponent over time
Ultimate Combo
Shadow Jago is the only character in Killer Instinct to have an Ultimate Combo.
He rapidly slashes his opponent three times in quick back and forth strikes before uppercutting him/her into the air, he then pulls out his broadsword, reversing his grip on it and jumps into the air to strike his opponent for the final blow before they both land onto the ground, and Shadow Jago sheathes his sword as he rises back up.

Have you actually missing dollars buying and selling stock possibilities?
Likelihood are good that you attempted to utilize the three trading horizons of stock buying and selling to options buying and selling and then got on your own hurt actual bad.
There are three time horizons or what we simply call investing horizons in stock trading and they are Extended Term, Mid Time period and Small Phrase. Long time period horizon in stock investing indicates the shopping for and holding of shares for 3 to 5 years, or from time to time more time. This is excellent for price investing in the very long time period potential clients of a company. Mid phrase investing in stock buying and selling is the buying and keeping of shares for six months to a year or two. Most stock investors use a mid time period view to spend in new expansion shares which are predicted to conduct properly binary options trading online in the quick 12 months. Limited term investing in stock investing is the purchasing and keeping of stocks for three to six months. These are shares of organizations that are predicted to make a breakthrough in their industries. However, do these notions of investing implement in options buying and selling? Not at all!
The truth is this Stock Selections are spinoff instruments that have extremely brief contractual lives! In simple fact, the longest expiration for exchange traded stock selections not often exceed 1 12 months! On top of that, the extrinsic price, or what we contact time price, designed into every single stock selections agreement decays as expiration attracts nearer, diminishing the worth of your options even if the underlying stock continue being stagnant. Due to these characteristics, stock alternatives are trading instruments, not investing instruments, and have significantly shorter binary options brokers buying and selling horizons than if you trade stocks. This is also why alternatives trading is affiliated so closely with technical evaluation these days since technical examination is particularly beneficial in figuring out quick term developments or reversal of tendencies.
So, how is the lengthy term, mid time period and short phrase buying and selling horizon outlined for alternatives trading?
In Selections Buying and selling, extended phrase horizon is the getting of possibilities with expiration of up to 1 yr in buy to speculate a lengthy expression rally or ditch in the underlying stock. Normally, long expression charts on regular monthly time intervals are utilised to determine these developments. Mid term horizon is the acquiring and keeping of regular monthly choices all the way to their expiration, just about every trade lasting no additional than a month. Charts on weekly time intervals are significantly practical trade binary options for identifying mid expression trading options. Limited phrase horizon lasts from three to 15 days in purchase to speculate a speedy short term surge or ditch in the underlying stock and usually works by using small time period every day time period charts to identify investing possibilities.
From the above definitions, it is obvious that stock options, as a limited time period investing or hedging instrument, is worthless for any person who is investing in the lengthy expression horizon defined for stock buying and selling. For that reason, in advance of you come to a decision to entirely replace your stock investing with selections investing, initially decide if trading stock alternatives permit you to trade the way you always have with stocks. If it doesnt, it is time for you to possibly stick with stock investing or discover a trading system which is correctly suited for possibilities trading.

Click Chic - Fashion Photography As Social Commentary
Fashion photography gets a display as social commentary through an exhibition at the School of Visual Arts in New York
As most any photographer profiled in these pages will attest, the dividing line between art and commerce is continually blurring. Photographic artists have long been sought to apply their talents to the commercial world of advertising and fashion photography, but the reverse hasn't always held true. Now, though, commercial photographers are finding acceptance in the world of high-art galleries and museums.
Museums and fine-art photographers—who sometimes disguised their own commercial interests—once looked upon the commercial worlds of editorial and fashion photography with a blasé attitude. In recent years, however, commercial photographers are finding more acceptance on gallery walls. Whether it's indicative of a more accepting art world or a higher quality of advertising and editorial photography, the effect is simple: There's increasingly little distinction between photographs made for art and those made for commerce.
To that end, a recent gallery exhibition was curated by Dan Halm at the School of Visual Arts in New York. Click Chic: The Fine Art of Fashion Photography was designed to "document the vitality of fashion photography as a vehicle for creative expression, formal experimentation and social commentary." Highlighting the work of six photographers known primarily for commercial photography—Roderick Angle, Guy Aroch, Maki Kawakita, Ryan Michael Kelly, Chiun-Kai Shih and Sarah Silver, each an alum of SVA and each making a living outside of fine-art sales—the exhibition was designed to tangibly showcase the artistic legitimacy of creative fashion photography.
"My inspiration for the show stemmed from my love of the power of a really good fashion photograph," says Halm. "I believe that if you look at a great fashion photograph outside of the glossy page of a magazine and placed it on a gallery wall, you shouldn't be able to tell the difference between fine art and the fact that these images were shot to appear editorially.
"Because they're originally conceived and created to appear in magazines and advertisements," Halm continues, "fashion photographs are often considered disposable. I'm hoping to change that by highlighting some exceptional images that hold their own as works of art."
Whether the images were created out of the photographers' personal motivations or they originally graced the pages of fashion magazines or billboards, the photographs in Click Chic clearly show the stylistic and formal similarities between the worlds of high-fashion and fine-art photography—probably because the photographers themselves don't choose to draw such distinctions.
"I've never felt like I was separate from the art community," says fashion photographer and Click Chic artist Sarah Silver. "You walk into a room and you're a photographer. You can say I'm a commercial photographer or a fine-art photographer, but really, you take pictures with a camera. You don't have to draw a line anywhere."

Australia will release the highly anticipated findings of its defence white paper tomorrow morning.
Defence Minister Joel Fitzgibbon will release the findings at 10.30am local time, a day after he returns from a trip to the USA that included visits to Lockheed Martin and Northrop Grumman facilities.
Among other things, the announcement should clarify Canberra's position on its commitment to the Lockheed Martin F-35 Joint Strike Fighter programme. It should also confirm if it will order additional Boeing F/A-18F fighters. There should also be guidance on Australia's naval helicopter, transport aircraft, and tanker programmes.
Let's just hope there is no plan to buy Lockheed Martin F-22s – that would be extremely bad timing after recent events in the USA!
Australia to release defence white paper findings
Australia will release the highly anticipated findings of its defence white paper tomorrow morning.

Ghost Box – An Unbelievable ResponseTuesday, April 6th, 2010
J D Farrell
Ghost Box EVP ClipsSaturday, March 13th, 2010
J D Farrell
The clips from this ghost box EVP session were recorded on 8th March 2010. During this session, I was interupted by a phone call and had to restart the recording. Shortly after this, a ghostly voice is heard perhaps talking about this event. As normal, I hear Martin and Debbies name mentioned and also heard a lot of voices saying "ghost" and "spirit" throughout. As normal I am left wondering where these spooky voices come from and are beings from the paranormal and supernatural world watching over us and are willing to communicate. My investigations with the ghost box will certainly continue.
Ghost and Angels EVPWednesday, January 27th, 2010
J. D. Farrell
In this ghost box video there are several ITC and EVP recordings including some of the more negative responses that us ghost hunters can sometimes hear as I feel it is important to show the whole story. It doesnt happen that often but occassionaly I may capture these type of evps so I will include more from now on.
Also in this video I am asking the question, do ghosts exist. In reply I hear several ethereal voices saying ghosts, angels, spirit. Are these voices paranormal, do the dead speak and do we have angelic beings watching over us?
All of these evp clips were taken from ghost box sessions in January 2010 using the Radio Shack 12-469 hack sweeping the AM frequency range.
Talking To GhostsMonday, January 18th, 2010
J. D. Farrell
In this latest ghost box video I share a few thoughts on the device itself. Also I play some evps that I recorded from a ghost box session recorded on 12th January 2010.
Are these the voices of ghosts, spirits or any other astral entities, possibly alien beings? Are these voices of paranormal origin or are we simply hearing the correct answers to our questions time and time again from an ever changing radio frequency sweeper that is only capable of playing the tiniest of audio segments?
Its my personal belief that co incidence can only go so far and that some of these ethereal voices show a sign of intelligence. I would recommend the ghost box itself to all ghost hunters to try as I feel its one of those things that has to be personally tested as short youtube videos very often dont do it justice.
