Aims & Ethos
Latymer Upper School's ethos of social inclusivity is as strong today as it was almost 400 years ago when The Latymer Foundation at Hammersmith came into being. Our story starts in 1624 when a prosperous lawyer, Edward Latymer, left part of his wealth for the clothing and education of "eight poore boyes" from Hammersmith.
Edward Latymer's vision was to offer his wards a life-changing education that would equip them to flourish in the wider world. This vision remains firmly at the heart of the School - although we now teach rather more than those original eight Hammersmith boys. The Latymer of today consists of a vibrant, co-educational student body of 1,223 girls and boys from all walks of life, and a further 164 pupils at Latymer Prep. The School has recently launched Inspiring Minds, Latymer's most ambitious bursary campaign to date. The aim of Inspiring Minds is to raise £40m by the Latymer Foundation's 400th anniversary in 2024, enabling the School to support 1 in 4 pupils with a bursary. As the Head, David Goodhew explains: 'I want Latymer to be a school for young people from all walks of life, where the only criteria for admission are ability and potential.'
The aims of Latymer Upper School:
- To provide an opportunity for academically able students from all walks of life to develop their talents to the full
- To select students as far as possible on the basis of ability without regard to financial means
- To provide a choice of academic courses taught to the highest level in a broad, imaginative and developing curriculum supported by an equally wide range of extra-curricular activities
- To encourage independence of approach in the pursuit of excellence in all activities
- To be a constructive and active participant in the local community, particularly through educational activities including community links and Partnership Schools, within the scope of The Foundation's charitable objects
- To consider the needs of the individual in the school community, providing care within a structured pastoral system
- To maintain an ordered and disciplined environment, enabling the individuality of each pupil to be developed and respected
- To value diversity, and develop awareness and tolerance of the aesthetic, cultural and religious values in today's increasingly pluralist society
- To ensure that all Latymerians leave the school proud of their achievements, confident in their abilities and concerned for the needs of others
Educational vision of the School
Latymer Upper School is first and foremost a 'learning school', vibrant, global in perspective, innovative in its teaching and learning and combining the best of the traditional and the modern. A high value is placed on scholarship in both pupils and staff and the School prides itself on the excellence of its teaching and pastoral care, its academic achievements and its exciting and innovative curriculum.
The School seeks to achieve the following educational outcome for its pupils:
- independent learning and research
- critical thinking, analysis and evaluation
- written, oral and multi-media communication
- collaborative working and problem-solving
- intercultural knowledge and understanding
- knowledge and understanding across a wide variety of disciplines
- capacity for creativity and imagination
- a love of learning

Making His Mark
♦ The New York Times just ran an extensive chat recently with Mark Hamill aka Luke Skywalker and here's 10 things we found out from the piece, written by Dave Itzkoff…
1. He never thought that Star Wars was going to be the huge worldwide hit it became: "I thought, even if this thing doesn't slay at the box office, it's got midnight cult movie written all over it," he said. "Move over, 'Rocky Horror,' 'Star Wars' is here!"
2. Hamill always assumed that Han Solo was the main character in Star Wars: "[Ford]'s a brilliant actor — that's a given. He's also a leading man. When I tested for this thing, I assumed he was the protagonist and I was his annoying sidekick."
3. He never had a problem embracing the world of Star Wars and everything that entailed away from the films themselves: "It's clearly not for everyone — I get that. But the passion of it all is just astonishing. The way it's become part of the fabric of their lives — 'I met my wife at this movie, we named our child Leia' — it's moving."
4. When it was first mooted, he was a little reticent to be involved: "I was just really scared. I thought, why mess with it? The idea of catching lightning in a bottle twice was ridiculously remote."
5. He never expected Harrison Ford to come back for The Force Awakens: "He's too old and too rich and too cranky. He's not going to do this. Can you imagine if I was the only one to say no? I'd be the most hated man in nerd-dom."
6. When the actor was given the narration by JJ Abrams at the table read for The Force Awakens, he saw this as a challenge from JJ Abrams: "I think he wanted to break me, like you break a racehorse."
7. Hamill admits that he was a little disappointed at his lack of screen time in The Force Awakens but his real fear was at not satisfying the audience: "If it smacks the audience as a cheat or a gimmick, if there's a big groan in the house, the egg's on my face, not J.J.'s,"
8. How much Luke Skywalker has become such a part of his life and his career and how he sees the character: "That's the hard part. You don't want to admit how possessive you've become. There are times where you go, 'Really? That's what they think of Luke? I'm not only in disagreement – I'm insulted.' But that's the process and you thrash it all out."
9. Hamill is a little sad that Carrie Fisher won't get to enjoy the extra attention that her presence in these new Star Wars films will continue to bring: "She deserved that second act. Harrison was more prominent in VII, I'm more prominent in this one, and she was meant to be more prominent in the last one. Her timing was perfect, except in this case."
10. Carrie Fisher pointed out that he needed to come to terms with the fact that he is still best-know as Luke Skywalker in Star Wars, when a theatre programme just described him as a Star Wars actor: "She goes, 'What's your problem?' I said, 'Well, it's theater, I want it to be more focused on theater.' She goes, 'I am Princess Leia. You're Luke Skywalker. Get used to it.'"

If you're successful and stuck or you have this persistent feeling that even though you're doing well you can do a lot better, apply for your complimentary confidential consultation with Olga today
Olga is one of the most insightful and effective coaches and thought leaders in America today.
Olga is brilliant at what she does. I only wish I'd met her 20 years ago.
My success was robbing me of my happiness my entire life, until I met Olga. She is a phenomenal coach. Olga's practical, proven system delivered transformational results.
Olga delivers! She'll take you to the next level no matter what goals you may want to achieve. More importantly, she'll make sure you deeply connect with who you really are and what truly matters to you. If you want to be a great leader, great family man and have a great life, work with Olga.
Happiness is your birthright. Allow my friend Olga to help you manifest total happiness in your life.
Olga's unique set of skills in psychology and business sets her apart from anyone I've ever met. Olga is amazing to work with and she's all about results. I highly recommend her.
If you want real results, work with Olga. Olga brings out the best in you – from the inside out. If you are facing some challenges and not sure where to get the answers, she has the answers!
Hi! I'm Olga.
I'm an entrepreneur, author, speaker, coach to high achievers and a firm believer that life is too darn short to be unhappy or unfulfilled. Passionate about helping the best get better, I specialize in coaching entrepreneurs and executives to become more successful, happier and lead rich lives that are full of purpose.
I help my clients remove hidden blocks that sabotage their real potential, retrain the brain for higher levels of confidence and inner peace, and match results with ambition. Based out of Vancouver, Canada, I work with high achievers from all over the world, thanks to modern technology such as Skype and FaceTime.
Since you're here, I'm guessing what you're wondering is this: Is this woman worth my time and attention? If I like what she has to offer, should I hire her?
For many readers, the answer is "No". Here is why:
It's not unusual for my clients to radically improve not only their personal life but also their income. That's because I provide a unique range of services and specialize not only in life coaching but also business coaching. Our personal and business lives influence each other in a big way, and I find that we can't be truly happy and fulfilled unless all important areas of life are in alignment with our core values, goals and vision. On top of that, I specialize in working with the subconscious mind because it's the fastest, most effective way to create real, lasting, positive change.
So if you're not prepared to take a brutally honest look at every area of your life and dig deep, I'm not for you.
Despite extensive training in psychology, I chose not to become a licenced psychologist because I didn't want to be bonded by the traditional psychology rules and regulations, and here is why: many of these so-called rules limit the depth of inner work that needs to happen in order to truly let go of the past, improve the present and upgrade the future.
Plus, I find many traditional psychology methods ineffective, to say the least. Metaphorically speaking, I prefer to deal with the trunk and the roots instead of the branches and the leaves, which often is the case when it comes to techniques used by many traditional psychology practitioners. I use safe, proven, yet somewhat unconventional processes that allow my clients to create core positive change in an unusually short period of time. However, you've got to do the work to get the kind of results my clients are getting.
So if you're not willing to play full out, I'm not for you.
I'm in the business of making winners win more. Full disclosure: I have an allergic reaction to whining, negativity and playing a victim. I'll always keep your best interests at heart, I'll always be in your corner and I'll take you to new heights; however, I won't tolerate a "poor me" attitude.
So if you're not prepared to take full responsibility for what happens in your life from now on, I'm not for you.
If you prefer to work with someone who's easily influenced by you, then we're not a good match. Also, as a direct Russian, I will state my opinion and give advice when requested. Sometimes we have to make very difficult decisions, and I will help you not only see all angles but also find the path of least resistance and maximum fulfillment.
By the way, I don't fit the typical stereotype of a Russian because I've certainly Americanized living in Canada and the US for over 15 years; however, a direct approach and my accent are definitely part of the package.
So if you can't handle a caring yet direct mentor who will keep you accountable, I'm not for you.
Provided we're a good fit, the minimum length of time I will invite you to join my Coaching Program is 2 months – 60 to 75 minutes per week plus occasional homework. That's because I will be taking you through deep processes that require some time to come to full fruition. Even though big inner shifts can happen in a very short period of time – that's why my Fast and Furious VIP DAY is so powerful – lasting change doesn't happen overnight. Remember, it took you your entire life to create and practice your self-limiting beliefs, habits and behaviors, so it will take some time to un-create them and rewire your brain for higher levels of happiness and success. However, even 2 months of working with me will help you make substantial improvements in your life.
Now, my services are not cheap. And even though my clients say that my fees are "insignificant compared to value delivered", I don't want to take your hard-earned money unless you're in the position to invest in yourself.
So if you're not prepared to invest in yourself mentally, emotionally and financially, I'm not for you.
Are you still here? Good. If you want to reach new levels of happiness and fulfillment and you're willing to do what's hard so that the rest of your life can be easy, then we'll get along famously.
Listen, you're not alone. We all need help once in a while. However, when you are a successful entrepreneur or executive, the world seems to get a lot smaller when it comes to finding people who really get the challenges you are dealing with and who can provide meaningful guidance. Why don't we connect for a quick chat to get a feel for each other and go from there?
Here is my promise to you – no strings, no pressure, no sales pitch; just a friendly conversation so that you can decide for yourself if coaching with me is the right step for you.
Now, there is a good chance that my schedule is full and you'll need to put your name on the waiting list. However, I invite you to fill out an application for two reasons: 1) I'll get back to you within 24 hours and schedule your complimentary consultation in the very near future no matter how busy my schedule is, and 2) my availability changes often, which means you might not have to wait long. Deal?
Thanks for checking this out. I'm looking forward to connecting soon!

text: Proper maintenance of air-handling equipment can prevent energy waste and help to ensure the comfort of building occupants. Fans alone—the main energy-user of air-handling equipment—use about 7 percent of the energy consumed by buildings that use conditioned air. They can be either in self-contained equipment—for example, with air handlers used in chilled-water systems—or integrated into packaged equipment like rooftop air conditioners. Other air-handling components include filters and dampers, which can also waste energy if not maintained. In this topic, we cover maintenance measures that apply to air-handling equipment, including changing filters and maintaining fans and outside-air dampers. Other measures that apply specifically to rooftop units (RTUs), such as cleaning the condenser and evaporator coils, verifying refrigerant charge levels, and maintaining the RTU cabinet integrity, are covered in the topic Maintaining Packaged Rooftop Units. Changing filters this section Filters play two important roles: They help maintain indoor-air quality and they protect the downstream components of an air-handling system (the evaporator coil and fan) from the accumulation of dirt that can cripple performance. A dirty filter will slow down standard fans; although this reduces the fan's energy usage, it also decreases the capacity and efficiency of the rest of the system. Figure 1 shows a typical RTU filter arrangement. Figure 1: Rooftop unit filter rack Filter changes are the most frequently required maintenance task for rooftop units. The unit pictured also has a nearby folder with a schedule and log for documenting filter changes—a practice that we recommend. Filter-changing intervals can be based on the pressure drop across the filter or (more commonly) by calendar scheduling or visual inspection. Scheduled intervals should be between one and six months, depending on the pollutant loading from indoor and outdoor air. More-frequent changes may be required during the economizer season, because outdoor air is usually dirtier than indoor air. Measuring pressure drop is the most reliable way to rate filter loading. However, this approach requires some effort—most rooftop units do not have built-in pressure taps. Taps can be made by drilling into the cabinet wall and installing quarter-inch tubing with removable caps. A technician then can use a hand-held pressure meter or manometer to check filter status. (To get accurate readings, cabinet access panels must be shut tightly, with all screws replaced.) In facilities with predictable and regular filter loading, pressure measurements can be used to establish the proper filter-change interval; thereafter, filter changes can simply be scheduled. Pressure-measurement taps are a bargain, given that they cost less than a single change of a high-quality filter. Complete air-filter pressure kits that include a dial gauge cost between US$50 and $100. Hardware for installing taps that can accommodate a portable gauge costs less than $10, and this task can be performed by a service technician in a matter of minutes. Automated pressure tracking is a further step in filter management. It makes the most sense for very large rooftop units (20 tons or greater) and for large, custom-built air handlers (for which a single filter change may cost $100 or more). There are two ways to track pressure automatically: Install transducers that feed pressure-drop data to a building automation system. This data then can be used by building operators to check filter status, or it can trigger an alarm when pressure drop exceeds the design limit. Unfortunately, this strategy yields a long payback period when applied to small RTUs, because the cost of pressure transducers starts at about $260 (for a model with ± 3 percent accuracy). Use a differential pressure switch that flips from "off" to "on" at a certain pressure difference across the filter. This is a less-expensive option, but these switches require time and care to calibrate, and one experienced service technician maintains that they cause more problems than they solve. Maintaining fans this section Fans are integral to a building's HVAC system. It's especially important to perform regular maintenance on fans that are exposed to the elements, such as the condenser fan in an RTU, because they are more prone to premature failure than fans that are in protected locations, such as in an air-handler inside a building (Figure 2). Figure 2: Anatomy of a rooftop unit Rooftop units include both a supply (evaporator) fan and a condenser fan. In this model, the former is belt-driven and the latter is a direct-drive fan. Though both fans are housed within the unit, the condenser fan is blowing straight up, so it is directly exposed to the elements. Here are some general fan-maintenance practices. Visually inspect the fan. Make sure nothing is blocking the fan blades and check for obvious signs of damage. Damaged fan blades can reduce performance and ruin a motor. Check fan motors. Verify that the motor amperage is as expected. If it is not, this could indicate that the motor is failing or that the fan assembly needs maintenance. Also verify that the fan motor is running in the correct direction—many HVAC technicians have at least one story of finding a fan that's running backwards. Centrifugal fans still supply some air even when running backwards (typically about 50 percent of rated flow), so the problem may not be readily apparent. The most common cause of reverse fan operation is switched wire leads on the motor; clear labels on the fan housing, pulleys, motor, and wires can help prevent this problem. Finally, monitor fan cycling. Rapid on-off cycling of a condenser fan (three minutes or less) leads to poor control of the refrigeration system and can wear out the fan motor prematurely. If you observe a fan that is cycling rapidly, call in a qualified HVAC technician to check the settings on the fan controller—they may be in need of adjustment. Lubricate bearings. Sleeve bearings, which are simple oiled metal-to-metal running surfaces found in older fans, should be lightly oiled two or three times per year with the recommended lubricant. A label near the bearings should indicate the lubrication interval, lubricant type, and perhaps a log of past service. Newer fans are equipped with self-lubricating bearings (sealed-cassette ball-bearing cartridges preloaded with grease). There is no way to regrease these bearings, so when they finally fail—typically after several years of service—the bearing cassette must be replaced. Warning signs of impending failure are excessive noise, vibration, or heat emanating from the bearing. Conventional greased ball bearings are occasionally found in fans. The most common problem with these bearings is overgreasing—the service technician connects a grease gun to the fill fitting and pumps in grease until it flows out of the bearing seals. But overgreasing can be as damaging as undergreasing. The proper procedure is to open the drain plug and inject grease through the fill fitting until clean grease comes out of the drain. If it is possible to do so safely, regrease the bearings while the motor is running to help ensure a complete grease exchange. Take care not to get grease or oil on the pulley wheels or belt, because that will cause slip-stick action that will jar the system. Clean fan blades. If impeller blades are coated with dirt, fan efficiency will suffer. Impeller blades on forward-curved fans are especially prone to filling up with dirt because they are shaped like scoops. Good filtration helps keep dirt out of the fan, but an annual visual inspection still makes sense. Cleaning the blades on a small fan takes an hour or more because the technician must remove the impeller from the fan housing. Cleaning larger fans, especially those with multiple wheels on a single shaft, can be a major project. Adjust belts. Improperly adjusted belts rob the drivetrain of power, create noise, and require replacement sooner than well-adjusted belts. Loose belts slip on the pulley wheels, causing torque loss and rapid wear. Belts that are too tight put an excessive load on the motor and fan shaft bearings, causing early failure of the bearings or belts. Proper belt tension can be achieved with a deflection strain gauge, but most technicians are familiar enough with the proper tension to adjust it simply by pressing on the belt with a finger. Either method works well if performed consistently. In addition, belts should be aligned with a straightedge to prevent lateral wear. Some technicians advocate belt changes once or twice a year, whereas others simply let belts run until they break. Depending on the price of a belt, it may make sense to forestall breakage with periodic replacement. According to Nationwide Heating and Cooling, a Denver, Colorado, service representative for Carrier Corp., belts can cost from $20 to $60 and a service call to replace a broken belt can run from $150 to $200. Experts recommend keeping one extra belt (an old one will do, if it's in good shape) inside the cabinet to use as an emergency spare. An easy upgrade that can improve drivetrain efficiency by 2 to 8 percent is to switch from standard to cogged V-belts (Figure 3). Figure 3: Cogged V-belts Specifying cogged V-belts instead of standard V-belts is an easy way to improve supply-fan efficiency by 2 to 8 percent. Cogged belts run on conventional smooth pulleys, but the notches on the inside of the belt reduce internal bending losses and improve gripping action. Maintaining outside-air dampers this section Dampers are notorious for falling into disrepair. A 2002 study of 123 RTUs equipped with economizers performed by Architectural Energy Corp. found that dampers on 24 percent of them would not move at all and another 10 percent displayed poor operation. This problem can have major energy consequences in regions that otherwise could take advantage of economizer operation; it can also have potentially serious impacts on indoor-air quality in all climates. Outside-air dampers on a packaged RTU are shown in Figure 4. These dampers must endure a continual flow of dirty air that fouls the pivot points and actuator mechanism (the coarse prefilter only keeps larger things, such as leaves and birds, out of the unit). If operating properly, the dampers can alleviate the need to run the compressor when outside air temperature is below about 60° Fahrenheit (F). Unless they are kept clean and well-lubricated, however, they can stick in place and rob the unit of free cooling potential (if closed) or overload the cooling coil with too much hot outside air (if open). Figure 4: Outside-air dampers These dampers have a dirty job: directing the flow of particulate-laden urban air. Unless they are cleaned and lubricated regularly, they cannot perform well. On the right is a pre-filter that keeps out large objects. During damper servicing, clean and lubricate moveable surfaces. Though the cleaning can be done with a power washer, the high pressure can bend the fins and cause problems. A safer method is to scrub the surfaces with a brush, using foam cleaner and a hose. As long as a service technician is already on the roof, this cleaning and testing should take about 15 minutes. After cleaning and lubrication, test the damper. First, run it through its full range of motion. Tools can generate electrical control signals to drive the actuator, or the economizer setpoint can be manipulated at the control panel. Then check the economizer setpoint. Although many economizers are set at about 60°F, the setpoint can be as high as the return-air temperature (about 74°F) to provide beneficial ventilation. However, in high-humidity climates (or where outside air is very polluted), it may not make sense to maximize outside-air flow at low drybulb temperatures. Content last reviewed: 09/21/2017

|Single Tooth Implant Cases
|Multiple Tooth Implant Cases
|Gum Reduction Cases
|Gum Grafting Cases
|Grab the green handles on the images below and drag them left and right to see the before and after images.
This patient had a fractured left front tooth as seen by the dark line going through the root and encircled in red. The tooth was extracted, the bone rebuilt and a dental implant placed as seen in the post-op x-ray.
This patient had a severe abscess on her gum on the right front tooth. The tooth was hopeless and could not be saved. The tooth was extracted, the bone rebuilt and a dental implant was placed. You can see the implant in place on the x-ray.
This patient had a right front tooth that was hopeless. There was significant breakdown of the bone and problems with the root canal. This tooth was extracted, the bone rebuilt and an implant placed. In addition the patient also had porcelain laminates on the adjacent teeth.
This patient had a hopeless right front tooth due to root canal problems. The tooth was extracted, the bone rebuilt and an implant placed.
This patient had a broken down right canine (eye tooth). The tooth could not be saved and hence the tooth was extracted and an implant placed in this area. Additionally the bone was rebuilt as well.
This patient had an upper front tooth that was malformed and much too small for the space that was present. The treatment consisted of the removal of this small "baby like" tooth and it was replaced with a dental implant and a cap. Orthodontics was used also to help create the right amount of space for the cap over the implant.
This patient had a left front tooth that was broken down to the gum line. There was an inadequate amount of tooth to place a post and rebuild the tooth for a new cap. It was deemed more appropriate to remove this tooth and place a dental implant as seen on the x-ray. The bone also needed to be regenerated.
This patient was missing her upper right eye tooth and had a malformed white filling put onto a tooth to attempt to make up for the lost tooth. The correct treatment was to remove the ill fitting restoration and to place a dental implant. The last image shows the patient twenty years after the implant was placed.
This patient had a broken tooth on the upper left side. The entire inside part of the tooth had broken off leaving the tooth unable to be fixed. The tooth was removed and a dental implant was placed. You can see the dark area in the x-ray which represents the portion of the tooth that was fractured off.
This patient had a badly infected lower right back tooth with severe disease at the end of the root of the tooth. It was deemed more appropriate to remove this second tooth from the back of the lower right side and replace it with a dental implant. This is often a prudent choice as opposed to having to "try" a root canal. It should be noted that the patient also ultimately had an implant done on the lower left side to replace a missing tooth.
This patient was missing the left front tooth when he came to Dr. Alpert's office. A dental implant was used to replace the left front tooth. Due to the very limited amount of space for the cap over the implant, the implant placement was very challenging. Due to Dr. Alpert's superb surgical skills the implant was positioned ideally. This enabled the dentist to make the proper cap both cosmetically and functionally.

FLAGSTAFF - As the 35-acre Fisher Point fire burned in a canyon just a few miles south of his office, Coconino National Forest fire information officer Dick Fleishman said he anticipates an average fire season.
But average means something far different than when he started with the U.S. Forest Service 33 years ago. Persistent drought and denser forests make even a routine fire season more severe.
"Twenty years ago, we would have said Fisher Point was large," he said.
Arizona's wildfire season is at its peak from May through July. High winds, hot temperatures and low precipitation can extend or worsen the season, Fleishman said.
"The real hard fire season is when it's hot, dry and windy all at once," he said.
The whole state faces these conditions in varying degrees this year, said Carrie Dennett, state fire prevention and information officer at the Arizona State Forestry Division.
She said southeastern Arizona has already had several wildfires. The state as a whole is preparing for an average fire season, Dennett said, but there's no clear definition of just what average is.
"The last 10 years of fire history that we've had in the United States have kind of redefined what fire is," she said. "Average or normal is kind of a moving target"
Most predictions are just educated guessing, she said.
"It's taking past history and current conditions and then making inferences about where we're going," she said.
The Southwest Coordination Center in Albuquerque, N.M. handles these predictions at the federal level. The center bases its seasonal fire predictions on five factors: droughts, fine fuels condition, seasonal temperatures, spring and early summer weather patterns and monsoons.
It expects the long-term drought across the Southwest to worsen during the summer. Despite the drought, Arizona's wet 2012 monsoons and a wetter winter could lead to more new growth, providing fine fuels.
Overall, the center expects southeastern Arizona to see above-normal potential for fires from May to June. The northwestern parts of the state will likely see higher fire potential in June and July.
This coincides with Arizona's prime hiking and camping season. Michelle Fidler, fire communication and education specialist at the National Park Service, said campers just need to be careful.
"The most important thing is to check local conditions," she said. "Check with the local ranger office to see if wildfires are in the area and to see what different restrictions are."
Fireworks are banned at all times on federal lands, and restrictions on campfires and other fire hazards vary from park to park.
In Flagstaff, officials focus on education. The region expects a dry and windy summer, but determining how bad the season will actually be depends on the number of fires.
People cause almost all fires that start before the summer monsoon season brings lightning, said Mark Brehl, wildland fire leadworker at the Flagstaff Wildland Fire Management office.
The most common cause is improperly extinguishing campfires, but cigarettes, the use of power tools and even sparks from chains on trailers can ignite fires.
"We encourage people to be safer when they're out in the woods," Brehl said. "No one wants to be responsible for starting a large fire that burns homes and destroys lives, so we really encourage people to be cautious this year."
While Flagstaff's greatest natural threat is wildfire, Brehl said the area around the city is relatively safe because of aggressive efforts to restore the forest to its natural state. These include prescribed burning, or starting smaller, controlled fires to clear out brush and dead plants that serve as fuel.
Keeping fires away from developed areas is crucial because fighting them becomes far more complicated when they approach areas where buildings meet forest, Fleishman said.
"It's like real estate," he said. "It's location, location, location."
Fires that get too close to settled areas shift firefighters' focus from containing the fire to protecting buildings, he said.
For Brehl, keeping the state safe from dangerous fires is simple.
"If you have any doubt about having a fire, don't have one," he said. "You can still enjoy the forest without having a fire."

Stephanie Fierce (born February 14, 1986) is an American singer-songwriter, musician, host, businesswoman and producer. Born in Puerto Rico and raised in New York, Stephanie first appeared on a Star Search talent show held by Fierce Music Label, and was signed by the major record label in 2007. Stephanie Fierce was given limited time to record her very rushed debut album "Stephanie Fierce: The Past, The Present and the Future Of Pop" which was released only in the US in 2008. The album did not reach commercial successful at first with the lack of promotion provided by the label. Fierce originally signed a two album/4 year contract with Fierce Music Label. However, the label went into legal issues that cut out all the contracts the label had with all artists. Fierce then decided to go independent and record an EP self titled "Stephanie Fierce" which was later used as a demo for many record Labels. V-Records and Spice Records picked up the demo and thought Stephanie Fierce had raw talent and she went on to be signed by V-Records becoming the very first pop artist to do so. Within a month later Spice Records worked a deal with V-records to co-sign Stephanie Fierce. Stephanie Fierce managed to open for GirlSpice on their "One Last Goodbye Tour", already guaranteed interest by many. The success continued with the re-release of her debut album "The Past, The Present and the Future of Pop" on September 1, 2009 with both labels backing the album. The album managed to sell over 3,200,000 becoming a huge success and one of the best selling debut album of all time. The album spawned hit singles such as "Hot shot feat. The Rockers", "Where I Belong" and "Toy Soldier." With the album, Stephanie Fierce also managed to build a personality, style and music form know as being Fierce.
Stephanie Fierce's success only kept increasing with the release of her second studio album "Diary Of A Pop Sinner". With the recordings of "DOAPS" Steph took over as a solo writer and producer. The title "Pop Sinner" refers to the believe that Stephanie Fierce is not a princess of pop and that she breaks the rules of pop. The album spawned many hit singles including worldwide hit "Love Feel Like Grenades feat. GirlSpice" and "Sweaty Nights". Sales for the album have reached over 9 Million worldwide becoming Stephanie's best selling album to date. Aside from getting positive reviews from top critics, The album managed to win Steph two awards at the IMA's/Birdies, one for Best Album and another for Best Solo Artist. The only Pop album to make that achievement. The album is considered one of the best pop albums in history. The album made Rolling Stone's list of Best Pop Albums in the last decade at #1.
Stephanie Fierce kept progressing with self-titled third studio album "Stephanie Fierce" which sold an additional 4.5 million copies worldwide. However the album is considered "critically underrated". The album seeks a more rock oriented sound with less mainstream appeal. Critics praised Stephanie Fierce's lyrics as well as her raw vocals. The album saw success with singles such as "The Bitch" and "Destruction feat. The Nimrods". After the release of the third studio album, Fierce finished her contracts V-records & Spice Records, and decided to move on to bigger things. She is now owner of new rising label "Hot Eye Records". Stephanie Fierce maintained a strong relationship with both labels.
Stephanie Fierce was also involved on a side project with married husband Johnny Johnson known as Savior. The band does not seek mainstream success and albums are released independently. Only two albums feature vocals by Stephanie Fierce.
Her fourth studio album "Newborn" was released February 14, 2011. The album showcases Stephanie Fierce's growth over the past years as both a producer and a songwriter. So far critics who've listen to the album, consider it Steph's most innovative album to date. With the perfect balance of pop and lyrical substance. Weeks after the album was announced, Steph took the opportunity to announce her pregnancy. "Crucifixion on an Innocent (Suffer)" reached #1 on the Top 20 Airplay Charts. Other single releases include "Heart & Salt", "Don't Drop The Soap" and "Immune".
To date Stephanie Fierce has sold over 200 Million Records (digital and physical album, CD, DVD, ringtones, song, single sales combined). She's a three time Birdie/IMA winner (The first and only pop act to win "Best Album") and is a pop artist like no other.
On May 28, 2011, Stephanie Fierce released information on her fifth studio album "Free". Fierce described the album as "psychological" in the form of a letter; claiming:
"In the whole creation process, I feel like a blind protagonist, who sort of develops a new sense, while strengthening the other ones as well. This is in no shape or form a pop album. This album is not something you can really get into, but more like really get out of. I say that with confidence. It's not for the fact that I'm becoming anti-pop or that that I'm now trying to not have a commercial album. It's simply just not a pop album. The idea at first was to create a dance album, but I scrapped it, simply because I changed my mind. I felt that this album is much more than some dance album. It goes way beyond that. I'm not indicating that it's still a dance album. You can dance to a beat, but you cannot dance to this. You have to sit down and think it through
The biggest challenge in this album was going inside my head, and portraying exactly what I was thinking. I think that's the challenge that everyone experiences, period. But this piece of art is complex, because it's not delusional and you quickly become disgusted by it. So basically my mind is placed under a microscope. My thoughts….. I don't expect anyone to relate to it. It's almost like a trip through yourself, through myself."
"Dying in the Airwaves", the album's lead single, went #1 on both the Digital Songs/Airplay Charts. Other singles release were "In Love Alone", "Electric Guitar Virgin", "Tequila Shower" and "Dear Producer, Stephanie Sampled a Tree".
On August 2011, Stephanie Fierce began writing and recording her sixth and seventh studio albums. On October 19, 2011, the album's title; "Life's Good" was unveiled. The LP was released on January 29, 2012 with Liberation/Nomad Records.

The first single "Life's Good feat. Ryan Ross Hernandez" went #1 on the Airplay charts. "Back To Fierce" also managed to go #1 on the Airplay charts and Dance Songs chart. The song also earned Stephanie a Chaos Awards for "Best Single". "Lead Me To Your Heart" managed to go #1 on the Digital songs chart and Rock songs chart. "As it Ends" managed the Top 10 on the "Airplay Charts". "Keep You In a Collar" managed to reach the Top 5 on the Digital Songs Chart. On May 21, 2012 Stephanie Fierce announced that she will soon be going on a music hiatus after the release of her seventh studio album. "Love is Lust", the seventh studio album was released worldwide on July 8, 2012. On July 1t, Stephanie Fierce released a set of promotional singles which included "Love is Lust", "Sent a Bullet", and "Whore", which premiered on Rolling Stone's website.

She's a three time Birdie/IMA winner (The first and only pop act to win "Best Album") and a three time Chaos Awards winner.
Child Hood/Teen Years Edit
Stephanie grew up in the projects of New York City and Manhattan. She originally lived in Puerto Rico, and after 11 rough years moved to New York with little or no English known whatsoever. Stephanie was always teased for her English and Latino accent. Stephanie never took it to heart but instead took it to make her stronger. After many years, Steph quickly let go of the accent, which surprisingly didn't stuck with her. Stephanie Fierce learned English rather quickly and was often tutored by her father (Emmanuel Rios). She was always driven to improve in something and that drove her to be the best she could be, making her really successful. As a child Steph was also trained by her father to become an entertainer and perfomer. Steph took various music lessons from her father and learned how to play the piano, read music and sing. Stephanie Fierce attended all four years at Seward Park High School and now is a special Alumni there. All four years. Steph took AP level music courses. Ranging from "Music Appreciation" to "Music Theory". A picture portrait of Stephanie Fierce was placed and can be seen at the front office of the school today.
According to her friends, Stephanie was always outgoing, and brave. Fierce would be the one who loved to get on stage and hog the microphone to sing songs by current rock/pop legends in her own time. While her mother always warned Steph about fame, her own mother's career failures led Steph to feel quilty about wanting to become famous. Steph always believed that her mother would one day see her perfomring in front of thousands and claimed it day after day.
At the sad age of 18 years right before her big break, her mother was gunned down near a bank, and passed away. This lead Stephanie to change her last name into "Fierce" paying a tribute to her own strenght as a person and as a woman.
Personal Life EditIn December 2007, Stephanie Fierce began dating country singer Silver Spoons. They ended their relationship early 2008. In 2008, Stephanie Fierce began dating long time collaborator Johnny Johnson. The two confirmed their relationship later on, and married at the peak of 2009.
In July 2010, Stephanie Fierce announced that she and Johnny were pregnant. They gave birth to Helle in January 2011. A month afterwards. Stephanie Fierce unvelied in an interview that they weren't "communicating". The following month, Steph announced her divorce with Johnny Johnson.
In November 2011, Stephanie Fierce confirmed her relationship with Nicolas Brown. In August 2012, Stephanie and Nicolas Brown married only to divorce two months after.
On December 2012, Stephanie confirmed that she reunited with Johnny Jonson.
Previous Label Edit
Stephanie first signed with FML Records in 2005 after a contract seeker saw Stephanie Fierce performing at the talent search they held that year. The Contract was initially meant to be 4 long years but Fiece Music Label faced various legal issues, eventually going into bankruptcy and ended its activity. Artists signed, including Steph had to leave the label and end their contracts. Stephanie has stated that working with Fierce Music Label was the "worst experience" a hungry artist could experience, but thought her a lot about the industry itself. She then managed sign on a dual contract deal with V-Records and Spice Records (respectably). She became the very first Pop Artist to get sign with V-Records.
Music & Voice Edit
Fierce possesses a three and a half octave vocal range. Christopher Wallas of The Times commented that she has the voice that defines her sound. Linda Fea of Pop Wiz called her voice distinctive and fast, with almost hiccuping vocal technique. Other critics praise her range and power. In reviewing her second album Diary of A Pop Sinner, Jody Rosen of Entertainment Weekly writes "Stephanie Fierce is a storm system disguised as a singer. On her second solo album, DOAPS, the songs arrive in huge gusts of rhythm and emotion, with Fierce's voice rippling over clattery fierce beats; you'd have to search far and wide — perhaps in the halls of the Metropolitan Opera — to find a vocalist who sings with more sheer force...No one — not Madison O'Leary, not Ryan Ross Hernandez, to say nothing of her rival pop divas — can match Fierce's genius for dragging her vocal lines against a fierce beat." Chris Richards of the Washington Post writes, "Even when she's coasting, she soars above her imitators. It's all in her voice—a superhuman instrument capable of punctuating any beat with goose-bump-inducing whispers or full-bore diva-roars. Smitten, scorned, amorous, antagonistic—Fierce sings from all of these vantage points with undeniable virtuosity."
Fierce's music is generally Pop, but she also incorporates rock, electronica, ambient, alternative instrumentation and soul genres into her work. While she almost exclusively releases English songs, Fierce did record several Spanish records that never got released. "Cacafuego" is the only known Spanish song by Fierce which received favorable responses from their Latin fans.
Fierce began exploring a more alternative approach upon the release of her fifth studio album "Free", which incorporated more freestyle vocalization such as spoken word and many other alternative forms of music composition.
"Fierce" Criticism & Controversy Edit
Stephanie Fierce was been criticized a lot for her use of the word "Fierce". Stephanie Fierce's Former Manager stepped up and defended Miss Fierce by saying: "Fierce this, fierce that! It pisses a lot of people off, especially her former enemies. But please understand that while vicious with songs and fashion, Stephanie still is humble and thoughtful. Fierce herself then stated: "I don't feel that I need to bitch to get what I want. That's the easy way. I'll work hard to get what I want and the outcome is even greater, because not only did I get what I wanted, but I didn't have to be a bitch to get it".
While the word has been used or if not over-used many time before in the fashion industry. Stephanie Fierce took the word and made it her own. From the way she used it to the way she said it. Many men and women around the world felt more confident the way Stephanie Fierce said and used the word.
Stephanie Fierce gained even more criticism when she developed her won performing-genre "fierce". Fierce claims that the uniqueness of the voice and sound on some songs of "Diary of a Pop Sinner" and all of the songs on "Stephanie Fierce" makes it its on genre. The statement was well received by musical experts but not by a few rival musicians. Ryan Ross Hernandez stated: "Fierce is now a genre?! No singles?! What the f*ck is wrong with the world?."
Stephanie Fierce's lyrics to the "Plead The Fifth" song was highly criticized by animal rights group PETA for its reference:"Oh Peta, the God of my four legged friends forgive me for revenging the snake. As soon as I ate the apple fashion made wear shoes that aren't fake." PETA called the lyrics to the song "shamelessly wrong and disgusting".
In the Spring of 2010, Stephanie Fierce was falsly announced dead on televison for nearly two weeks, after a dissapereance from the singer. Stephanie Fierce was slated by the media, after her normal re-appereance. At the near end of 2010, the singer was hacked, and announced dead once again on her official website. An image of Stephanie Fierce with the caption "1986-2010" was left on the website for 18 hours, leading many fans to believe the singer was dead.

Death Spiral is a term often used to characterize the negative impact of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare). A health insurance death spiral occurs when the numbers of healthy individuals within insurance pools cannot cover the higher costs of care for less healthy individuals. Insurance costs go up for everyone and enrollments further decline, setting in motion a vicious cycle akin to the flush of a toilet.
But the death spiral image more aptly captures the Tea Party whip the beast / starve the beast strategy for undermining and hollowing out government institutions and functions. For example, the ultimate effect of the Betsy Devos public education mandate, as imagined by her business and religious sponsors (most of whom have never spent a day inside public schools themselves) is likely to be a public education death spiral. Which is largely the mandate's intent. Betsy Devos' education goals include:
- Releasing states and localities from US Department of Education guidance and mandates;
- Liberating public school funding for charter school, private school, and religious school options favored by "education choice" spear carriers; and
- Restoring control of education to local communities and (most importantly) to parents.
Already beleaguered and under siege, especially in poorer and more socially disconnected and chaotic communities (both urban and rural), where many children grow up under handicaps unimaginable in more affluent and stable environments, the Devos reforms would simply strip resources from schools, lure more functional students into a traders' bazaar of misshapen education options, leave behind those children with the most significant handicaps and disabilities, demoralize public school teachers and staff, and sow confusion and chaos on behalf of a punitive 16th-century Calvinist worldview premised on a concept of predestination that casually assigns its children to the buckets of the damned and the saved.
One could go on forever about the meaning and value of education "choice". In general, market zealots don't sufficiently distinguish between true choice and market mayhem. There are also teleological conditions for "meaningful" choice that are typically ignored. And of course the right-wing / evangelical focus on "education choice" bumps uncomfortably close to ideas about choice concerning reproductive rights. However, "parental control" is the concept that lights the hottest fire under the rear ends of right-wing and religious education advocates, and while the concept sounds unimpeachably American, the consequences of a pedagogy based on parental control would be catastrophic. Consider the following:
- The meaning of "parental control" is fraught. Clearly kids benefit from parental investment in their schools and in their education. And when Devos and the educational reformers with whom she associates refer to parental control, they are often referring to control over where a child goes to school. But Tea Party rhetoric also refers to parental agenda-setting on curriculum and pedagogy. Giving parents this sort of control over the education of their children is like assuming commuters should engineer and construct suspension bridges and tunnels. Or cancer patients should prescribe their own treatments. The premises of the assumption are ridiculous (as someone once said to me when I picked up his newborn son without cradling its head, you might know a lot about something, but you don't know anything about babies). The reality is that most parents don't have the foggiest idea about the layered complexity of any child's educational experience (much less the experience of a classroom full of individual children). And among those parents who do have a clue, the unavoidable tendency is to reduce the complex needs of an entire classroom or school to the specific needs of their own child, or to introduce irrelevant or actively harmful claims upon the teacher and her classroom driven by the political or religious ideology and agenda of the parent.
- Betsy Devos, alongside other members of the Tea Party, reduces expertise and experience of any kind to mere ideology of unreconstructed elites (and she aims to do some reconstructing). But as is true with virtually any other profession, teaching requires a body of knowledge and a ledger of experience that takes years to accumulate (as well as some native aptitude or talent for engaging and communicating with children). There is probably no profession more important and no job more difficult. What teachers need is the support and trust of parents, not their oversight, nattering, fussing, and preaching.
- What public schools and teachers do need from parents is the delivery to the schoolhouse door of children who are emotionally healthy and solid. Schools cannot repair, and should not be asked to repair, damage experienced by children in the first few years of childhood. Increasingly, of course, managing that burden of damage becomes the mountain teachers must climb, Sysyphus-like, every day before they can even get to the educational mission for which they were trained. Is there any wonder the burn-out rate for teachers is so high?
Unfortunately, the mission of the new administration, along with its fellow travelers, long in the hatching, is also to gut (more than they already have) other political and governing institutions that support families and parents and children when they are most vulnerable, and most in need of assistance and guidance, which is to say in the years before children enter grade school. Without that support, and without a renewed commitment to public institutions, public values, and public servants, the public education death spiral will likely only accelerate.

Stay denied in wind turbine hearing
Credit: By Steve Sabourin on October 1, 2014 | blackburnnews.com ~~
A judge has denied the request of a stay involving wind turbine projects in Huron County.
A hearing was held on Monday, September 22 and dealt with the wind turbine projects in Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanash and St. Columban.
According to CHAT, a group supporting a halt to the projects, the judge in the case ruled the group did not meet the threshold of a serious issue to be tried. If a stay had been granted, then construction on the projects would have been halted until a November hearing.
CHAT officials say they will have to wait for the appeal in November which will focus on errors in law at the Environmental Review Tribunal level.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein Essay
Sorry, but copying text is forbidden on this website!
The excerpt begins with Frankenstein wandering amid the ice of a mountain glacier where suddenly, the Creature approaches him with "super human speed" (2) and prevents Victor from escaping the confrontation he wishes to avoid. Without a positive identity in society, the Creature is incapable of attaining self-knowledge and thus, serves in Victor's hidden scheme of being an omniscient, god-like figure. Consequently, the creature demonstrates the desire to participate in his creator's world, attempting to construct his prejudice by employing language to seek the least recognition from his long-lost "parent.
" This meeting is metaphorically the site of confrontation between son and father with a rhetorical argument, designed to persuade Victor of his duties as a creator to his creation.
The encounter takes place in the Alpine setting of the Montanvert Glacier. This cold, hostile, and isolated setting symbolises the Creature's reception by both his creator and society as a whole. Shelley links the landscape to the Creature's feelings of rejection through commiserating comments, such as "the bleak skies I hail for they are kinder to me than your fellow beings" (48). As a result, the Creature craves human companionship and refers to his loneliness several times in the extract: "All men hate the wretched; how, then, must I be hated who am miserable beyond all living things!" (16) The Creature, a flash of fire on the ice, ruptures the coldness because he embodies the feelings and instincts he represses.
On the other hand, the fact that Victor also seeks solace in the mountains makes us wonder if the Creature is Frankenstein's double; just like a son grows up to be a spitting image of his father. This appears to be a reoccurring theme in Shelley's Frankenstein. On the surface, Victor and his creature seem drastically different, but ultimately there is not so much of a vast rift. Both inhabit cold, isolated places as they become alienated from society; Victor as a result of his choosing and the Creature as a result of society's prejudice.
Another dominating theme in this extract is injustice. The Creature, appeals to Victor's humanity stating that legal law allows a man a fair hearing before he is judged: "The guilty are allowed, by human laws, bloody as they are, to speak in their own defence before they are condemned." (56) He both demands and begs for the right to tell his story; a combination of pleading a legal case and redeeming himself before his father.
Furthermore, Shelley's allusion of Victor as the rebel figure Prometheus, who defied the Gods by stealing fire from Mount Olympus to give life to humans and was subjected to slow painful torture, is evident here. The Creature returns to haunt him, threatening him with comments such as "I will glut the maw of death, until it be satiated with the blood of your remaining friends." (21). In addition, the Creature comes across as God's Adam, entering the world as an innocent creature. The Creature justifies this by stating "I was benevolent and good; misery made me a fiend." (38) Shelley also uses oxymoron to highlight the Creature's allusion to Adam and also Satan in Paradise Lost: "I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel…" (36).
By using linguistic devices such as oxymoron, the Creature's eloquence is indeed remarkable. Even his most terrifying threats are expressed with elegantly constructed phrases: "If you will comply with my conditions, I will leave then and you at peace; but if you refuse, I will glut the maw of death, until it be satisfied with the blood of your remaining friends."(21) Parallelism and repetition in Shelley's writing produces a harmonious arrangement of words, suggesting balance and reasoning, which contrast the threats they convoy. Alternatively, Victor's language is violent and aggressive. His speeches that seem melodramatic, include a minimum of three exclamation marks and theatrical expressions like, "Be gone, vile insect!" (13) The language here suggests that Victor is really the monstrous one rather than the Creature who comes across as a reasoning, balanced individual.
Nevertheless, Victor's threats seem ironic when we are reminded of the Creature's superior physical strength and agility. He reminds Victor, "Thou hast made me more powerful than thyself." (31)Despite, Victor calls him an "insect" (13), an image that seems more appropriately applied to Victor himself!
This selection provides a blinding backdrop to the delayed meeting between Victor and his creature. At the end of the encounter, my sympathies for the Creature and Frankenstein change as they do several times throughout the novel. This jaw clenching scene is Shelley's most powerful critique of Frankenstein when she allows the Creature to tell his own story and desires. Alas, Frankenstein's feelings are emphasised by the words he uses, and he is to me, a prejudiced and heartless being.
This passage could have also been used by Shelley to draw sympathy for the Creature. It is difficult to have pity on such an unsightly murderer like Frankenstein's creation, yet Shelley, through the usage of numerous literary devices, is capable of convincing me that he deserved compassion, not condemnation. Nonetheless, by reading this passage, I have learned that with the Creature, we are forced to confront both figurative and literal monstrosity; questioning ourselves, who really is the monster in this story?

AMHERST, Mass. – Backstopped by 23 saves from goalie Sean Romeo, the Ohio State men's hockey team posted a 3-0 shutout at Massachusetts Saturday in the Mullins Center. Ohio State won 3-1 Friday, picking up its first sweep of the season.
The Buckeyes improve to 3-1-2 on the year, while the Minutemen are now 3-3-0.
Ohio State 3, UMass 0 – Briefly
The Buckeyes scored once in each period en route to the victory. Kevin Miller scored in the first, Janik Moser tallied in the second and Matthew Weis put the game out of reach in the third. Tanner Laczynski had the primary assist on all three Buckeye goals, his second career three-assist night and first since December. Sean Romeo had 23 saves for his first shutout as a Buckeye. The penalty kill was 3-for-3, ending the weekend 8-for-8.
Quoting Buckeye head coach Steve Rohlik
"It's always nice to be able to go on the road and earn two hard-fought wins. I thought our team played with a lot more detail to our game tonight."
Quoting junior defenseman and alternate captain Sasha Larocque
"The team played great all weekend. We stuck to our system and competed hard start to finish both nights. Romeo was fantastic in goal both nights and it was great to get the power play going. Overall, our special teams came through and it was a great team effort all around."
In the First
Kevin Miller opened the scoring in the first period, tallying his first of the year at 11:12. Dakota Joshua won the battle in the neutral zone and got the puck to Tanner Laczynski. He passed to Miller in front for the goal. Ohio State had the game's first five shots and led in the period, 11-7.
In the Second
Senior defenseman Janik Moser scored his first goal as a Buckeye (in his 89th game) at 12:19 of the middle period. Wyatt Ege, a redshirt sophomore transfer, held the puck in and played it to Tanner Laczynski. He found Moser in the high slot and his shot got through to put the Buckeyes up 2-0. Ege's assist was his first point as a Buckeye. Ohio State had 13 shots in the period, limiting the Minutemen to seven. Each team had three power plays in the period, with eight penalties called in the stanza.
In the Third
Matthew Weis drove the net and scored on a backhand at 17:19 of the third period, giving the Buckeyes a three-goal cushion. Tanner Laczynski and Kevin Miller assisted on the goal, Weis' first of the year. Sean Romeo made nine saves in the period to preserve the shutout. Ohio State had eight shots on net.
Blocking the Puck
The Buckeyes outshot the Minutemen, 32-23, in the game. Sean Romeo played all 60 minutes and had 23 saves for the shutout. He has allowed one goal or less in each of his last four games and now has a 1.30 goals-against average and .943 save percentage. UMass goalie Matt Murray made 29 saves in 60 minutes.
Ohio State blocked 10 shots in the game, with forward Mason Jobst leading the way with three. Sasha Larocque, Brendon Kearney and Matt Miller each had two recorded blocks.
Special Teams
The penalty kill was 3-for-3 in the game and 8-for-8 in the series. On the year, the team has stopped 20-of-21 (.952) opponent chances through the first six games.
Ohio State was scoreless on six power play chances in the game.
Up Next
Ohio State will host Robert Morris at 7 p.m. Friday in Value City Arena. The teams will close the home-and-home series at 7 p.m. Saturday in Pittsburgh.

Through an intensive three-month accelerator programme BGV invests in and supports great teams with new ideas to help overcome social and environmental problems.
Paul Miller
Paul is a Partner at Bethnal Green Ventures where he is focused on helping building new ventures that solve important social and environmental problems.
"We're very lucky at Bethnal Green Ventures that all our LPs (Big Society Capital, Nesta and Nominet Trust) have invested in us because they want to see technology used for a positive social purpose and done so to the highest ethical standards."
Paul Miller, Partner, Bethnal Green Ventures
The challenge
The team at Bethnal Green Ventures believes that there is huge potential for the online world to radically improve things that really matter in the offline world. From health and social care to designing new forms of education, energy creation and employment.
The aim of the project
BGV seeks out people with great ideas. They might be software developers, designers or people with personal experience of something they want to change – from teachers and doctors, to patients and carers. They look for early-stage ideas and are more interested in potential than experience.
BGV invests £20,000 in each team in exchange for 6% equity. It provides a three month programme of support and advice to help build, test and launch each startup.
The aim is to not only launch the new ventures, but also to build an alumni community that will go on to create and run other social start-ups in the future; growing the social tech market.
Positive outcomes
Since March 2012, BGV's accelerator programme has invested £1.4m in 86 startups that use technology to address major social and environmental problems.
BGV currently has 56 active tech for good start-ups in its portfolio that have raised over £23m in further funding between them. These are estimated to have benefited over 6.5m people with their products and services.
By supporting entrepreneurs who are using digital technology to enable positive change, BGV is playing a crucial role in growing the UK's tech for good ecosystem. It also consolidates the UK's global reputation for creative tech for good ventures.
Notable success stories include Fairphone, the world's first modular sustainable mobile phone, and DrDoctor, the hospital bookings system used by over 4 million NHS patients.
Nominet Trust is a founding partner of BGV which has created a pipeline for Nominet Trust's Social Tech Seed programme. More than ten Nominet Trust funded projects came through Bethnal Green Ventures' accelerator, including Open Utility and Konnektis.

For around a year or so I had an au pair named Sabine. Being a French girl, she made the most delicious crepes. So delicious that whenever she comes to visit, my sisters don't stop nagging her to make them until crepes are piled high in front of them coated in sugar. She used to hide chocolate in her room which we could take if we found the stash, she plucked my eyebrows for the first time and she used to enjoy ironing so much that she would iron our knickers. Along with all of these great things and the fact that my Mom might have a bit of French ancestry, I have a little crush on France.
Saturday morning was crazy. I woke up at 11 after a massive night in Benalmadena to celebrate Dillon's 21st. My Spanish housemate, Laura, had already set off on the journey to her local town to pick up her bags and head to the airport. Whilst getting ready to set off, I was calling my friend Chelsey (who had also been out the night before) to no answer. I decided to trek to her place to wake her from her slumber and get on our way. Chelsey had a bit of a panic, waking up just as I rang her doorbell, and slipped and bruised her elbow. We were determined to get to France so Chelsey quickly packed her bags and we got ourselves a taxi to the airport. A few hours later we were in rainy Marseille and couldn't believe the morning we had had. After two hours of searching (Marseille is the second largest city in France, after Paris), we finally found our hotel. Hot showers were taken and we were on the prowl for some food. We ended up eating in a kebab type place as being Spanish ERASMUS students, we are too used to eating dinner close to midnight. The day ended well with a look around the port accompanied by some French boys. Definitely have a crush on France.
Laura & Chelsey
on the port
cool mirror thing
The next day was spent touring Marseille and Aix-en-Provence. We met up with Laura's lovely friend Carmen. She knew so much about both places and introduced us to all her friends we bumped into along the way. I even met an Irish boy who goes to NUI! Small world, lads.
On Monday morning we took a car to Montpellier. It was something none of us had ever done before but it worked out perfectly. We found our hotel much easier than the time before and soon we were heading to see Beyoncé! It turned out it was a Bank Holiday Monday so the tram was being extremely slow. Laura, being the chancer that she is, got us on the idea of hitchhiking. We decided to give it a go as we really had nothing to lose. After around 10/15 minutes of thumbing a lady pulled over. It turned out that her two daughters had been lining up at the arena since 11am and she was bringing them some snacks and water. She even offered to give us a lift back. The three of us honestly couldn't believe our luck. In the end, we lined up for two hours. Once we got in there we ended up behind the VIPs at the corridor where Bey herself normally walks down to the second stage. There was a boy beside us who had lined up since 8am but had lost his friends on the run into the arena. The three of us felt a bit bad telling him that we had only lined up for two hours and ended up in the same place as him. We all made friends and had the best time in the end. Beyoncé was absolutely stunning and I can't put into words how amazing she was so we'll leave it at that.
So yeah, I have a massive crush on France.
Hasta pronto,
Hasta pronto,

Reply To: Methylation Results Are Back!
Home › The Candida Forum › Reply To: Methylation Results Are Back!
Well I upped the adb12 to 2000 mcg a day as of yesterday, nothing major in terms of reaction. I might just keep at the 2000 mcg dose for a week or two than lower the dose and add in hydroxy b12.
I've also noticed something interesting. I've had splinter hemorrhages on my nails for a few months now that come and go. Sometimes I get really winded, and get chest pain and feel like I can't pump enough blood or oxygen. I'm just noticing that the day after these "attacks" I get the splinter hemorrhages on my finger nails and my fingernails are painful for the next 24 hours or so.
The only info I can really find on the cause of the splinter hemorrhages is : endocarditis, vasculitis, and systemic infections. I also have had swollen lymph nodes for a few months now on the back of my neck. Makes me wonder If I do in fact have some sort of chronic infection.
