GREENFIELD The owner project manager for the city’s temporary and new fire station project has gone back to the company that will most likely supply the Fire Department with two trailers to temporarily house its offices and sleeping quarters in the hope of renegotiating a cost of no more than $405,000.
Fire Station Building Committee Chair David Singer said the committee received several bids for the job, but Vanguard was the only one that offered what the city is looking for. After checking with the state, Singer said he learned the committee could negotiate with Vanguard without seeking more bids.

There’s a cliché that gym bros spend all their time working on their chest, arms, and little else. The reason being that both your chest and arms are the most eye-catching muscles, especially so if you prefer your shirts on the slim-fit side. Hence all those skipping legs daymemes.
Sadly for the bros, though, over-training any one area can lead to painful and dangerous imbalances. Overdo your chest and you’re inviting postural problems and persistent back aches. Which isn’t to say that chest workouts don’t have a place as part of a fully-rounded workout routine.
