hundred thousand to star mock it conquer who also owns the they to market on konqueror street said at the hearing he needed the transfer because he wanted to apply floor a pouring license in addition to his all alcohol licen was told by town officials that he could not own both the state formally restricted a business owner of two entities from owning a pouring and an all alcohol license in the same community but this changed after august tenth when baker signed an act relative to job creation and workforce development into law this act eliminates the longstanding prohibition of the licensee

c c the law was signed with an emergency preamble meaning it has been in effect since august tenth konqueror now is allowed to hold an all alcohol and pouring license at the same time law but the recent finding is unlikely to alter cockers plans due to a contractual obligations and financial implications of writing on the transfer cocker first obtained one of the town's two all alcohol liquor licenses for the loading dock in may twenty fourth teen from his unique hybrid store consisting of a coffee house market that the alcohol and the restaurant the license applied to the market operation of the store after realizing he would not be able to also apply for pouring license cocker used his liquor license as collateral for a three hundred thousand dollar loan he said he needed to keep the loading dock afloat the intent he said boys to eventually transfer the license and use the proceeds to pay off this loan i took the liability and sign the purchase and sale agreement with star market cocker told a citizen herald on september twenty sixth i have to move with this i took this loan knowing i would be selling it it doesn't change anything for us said selectman chairman mark foley from our point of view we are just reacting to his request at the last hearing on september nineteenth said he was leaning towards not approving the transfer because the town's liquor licenses are meant for local businesses and not corporate giants like on september twenty sixth he said there was there were still things he is considering and felt more neutral on the proposed transfer than he did at the last hearing the decisions selectman ultimately make on the proposed transfer is likely to have broad implications on the way liquor licenses can be used in town residen at the september of ninety hearing rallied around macarthur's because their power because they wanted to see their friend and fellow residents succeed after years of work to get the loading dock up and running i'm trying to do the right thing and if i thought this would hurt anyone in town i would not be doing it said car but opponents are concerned the transfer will said a dangerous precedent by providing licenses to bigger chains that ultimately compete with the businesses the licenses are intended for this concern has already come to mind since selectman granted a liquor license to foodies market a grocer with multiple locations in boston marion teacher chosen for street pianos of boston will decorate piano to be placed around boston for public use by bram berkowitz since she began teaching music at the wynn brook elementary school last year karen i would say or has loved bringing in her painted hand adored instruments for all of her students to see now her talents will be on display for all of boston the street pianos of boston program what has selected out there as one of sixty local artists for their twenty sixteen program from september twenty third to october ten nearly sixty decommission pianos all of which say play me i'm yours will be uniquely decorated by participants and placed all over the city for anyone to play these pianos are already at the end of their lives set an everett resident i think it's a great way to say goodbye to lots of decommissioned pianos donated from local people street pianos of boston is returning to the city for the first time since it debuted in twenty thirteen as part of the celebrity series of boston and originated from british artist luke jerram the program has installed more than fifteen hundred pianos in more than fifty cities reaching over ten million people from london to new york i would say or did not participate in two thousand and thirteen but after building up experience by doing furniture work in events such as arlington  where you sit in which old chairs are decorated by local artists and sold to fund public art she was ready for the challenge over the last three years i spent time wondering how i could put designs on furniture she said that so i was proud to be one of the selected artists for street pianos this time hanna is a natural form of body art with a plant based that has been used for thousands of years dating back to the ancient egyptians i would say or said hand that stained anything that is or used to be alive including instruments would leather drum h certain kind of fabrics and animal and human skin this type of art is popular in north africa and india but does have a smaller following here in the u s she said i have always felt this poll for visual art said i'll say or who went to school for musical education i've never had any formal training but i have done it so wrong it's always been a part of me i would say or first experimented with hannah five years ago on the suggestion of her mother in law penny elsei heir who lived in the middle east for twelve years then she began learning new techniques from online communities and device that is used to apply design to apply acrylic di instead of the traditional plant based it is with this technique that i'll say are decorated her piano which is filled with woven salmon orange lines inscribed with metallic plum purple henna designed to over teal background the giant orange salmon draws you in and then the artwork really speaks to people who are familiar with hanna she said martha belmont d p w to post october

scientists by scott ready reidy when james boyer teaches his students at mount ida college about crime scene investigation he is speaking from first hand knowledge assistant professor and coordinator of the forensic science program and training at the newton school for previously spent thirty years in larne for applying for an sec science to criminal investigation a former detective specializing in crime scene reconstruction with an m s in peru and six science and a graduate certificate in advanced investigations from the university of new haven boyle president the real c s i as part of wicked local local you on october eighth at the boston marriott knew he discussed that and more by telephone recently question when did you first become interested in forensic science answer when i first join the air force as a security police officer at age twenty my plan was to serve for four years and then go to work for the state police i was interested in finding clues identifying evidence and putting the pieces of the puzzle together so i relisted in the special investigations unit and when i began my career in law enforcement i took every opportunity to join crime scene investigation task forces and participate in whatever trainings or available question there are so many television series dealing with forensic science which ones of the most accurate answer documentary shows like forensic files and the new detectives get it right i don't watch the scripted dramas often because my family tells me i ruin their pleasure by correcting the methods used in the shows i will say though that some of the equipment on c s i and c i s is in use so those elements are realistic processing a crime scene however takes much longer in real life than it does on television and the medical examiner does not go to a crime scene question what do you think first sparked the public's interest in forensic science answer it was probably a combination of things including the o j simpson trial and the jon benet ramsey and scott peterson cases it could also go back to television series like quincy m eighty which was ahead of its time and quite realistic and columbo too and the way that character put clues together to determine who was responsible for what happened question how important this forensic science to today's police work answer it is crucial even to the most basic incidents if you see someone punch someone else in the face you are the witness us men can't only get your statement however because that won't be enough maybe the suspect was wearing a ring that left an imprint or perhaps there was skin are blood transfer that information could make the case police are now trained in forensics first responders need that training too because without it they risk management making the detectives job gari marion yard smart smart technology expense expands to mowers and watering system spy melissa ericson some people enjoy the law and others make their kids do

depending on your ability to a said basically you set up a perimeter with a wire so your yard bot knows where to mow and doesn't wander away you have to set it up because the current g p s is off by
