For the St Joseph's First XVIII, the dream of an ACC premiership shaped their entire 2015 season and made for a fascinating year full of highlights.
Taking on St. Bede's in round one with the Year 11's and 12's playing together for the first time, coaches Jono Holt and Chris Lynch were impressed with their side's 102-point victory. Darby Schilder starred with a six goal haul whilst Jackson Mclachlan was unstoppable. Unfortunately the strong form shown in round one was not enough to overcome Whitefriars on the road the following week. Joeys were given a lesson by their rivals and despite eventual team Best and Fairest Ben McNamara's inspiring efforts in the backline, they suffered a 58-point loss. Back at Elderslie Reserve the following week, St. Joseph's completely outclassed a hapless Mazenod outfit with 34 scoring shots to five. Inaccuracy may have softened the blow but Joeys were back on the winners list, Jack Blood claiming best afield honours.
Coming off the bye, Joeys faced a tough challenge at home against an in-form Parade College in round five. Needing a win to almost lock in a home-final, Guy Hardiman put on an astonishing display with 10 goals as the home side claimed a 95-point victory. The momentum flowed into the following week as Joeys travelled to De La Salle's swamp-like oval and despite a depleted line-up, were barely challenged. Max Hungerford was prolific in the match with six majors and Patrick Dowling was at his dangerous best.
In the final round of the season, Joeys took on St. Bernard's in the annual Reconciliation Match. After locking up second spot on the ladder the week prior, the boys put on a show in Essendon with Hardiman and Captain David McNeel finishing the match with five goals each. The 102-point thumping of St. Bernard's was ideal preparation for their Semi Final against the same outfit one week later. Raven Marika stepped up on the big stage with six goals but the day was soured by injuries to key players with the Grand Final only two weeks away.
The ACC Grand Final proved to be a great test for Joeys and despite a combination of injuries and the task of taking down a previously undefeated Whitefriars, they came out with a thrilling three-point victory in front of what seemed like 90,000 fans at Elsternwick Park. Regardless of the Herald Sun Shield Semi Final loss to St. Patrick's College weeks later, the year will be remembered as a successful one on the back of one of the most unforgettable premiership campaigns in St. Joseph's footballing history.
Many thanks must be given to the supporting staff and coaches for what was a seamless year of football. Acknowledgement of the tireless efforts of tandem coaches Mr Holt and Mr Lynch must be given, as their constant dedication and commitment to the program has reaped the benefits of their first ACC Premiership as a duo. Without the help of devoted helpers in Shane Dawson and Lenny Alford (trainers), Greg Vaughn (manager) and Mr. Milverton the successes had wouldn't have been achieved. Many thanks also extend to the assistance of Ian Durran and Mr Clohesy, who helped the team in any way they could. Finally, to the departing Mick Hinds, we thank you for the many years of service to the SJC sporting program, your constant enthusiasm shown over the journey has made for plenty of joyful moments.
The desired goal of achieving our breakthrough ACC premiership was made even more enjoyable by the comradery shown from all involved in the football program. I would like to thank all who helped made the year possible, and wish the future years luck in the hope of going to the next step of achieving the Herald Sun Shield, which I strongly believe can be achieved with the program established.

Hello all St Joey's faithful,
I'd first like to thank our co-coaches this year in Mr Lynch and Mr Holt. They put in an enormous amount of time and effort and the entire squad are very appreciative. I'd also like to thank Lenny and Mick for their efforts this year with the strapping and great encouragement from the boundary.
Now the season recap, the first match resulted in a 150 point belting to the hands of the eventual cellar dwellers in Mazenod and our midfield dominated hitting up big boy Ben Thomas who went on to kick the equal year 10 goal kicking record of 7. De La Salle was a good 42 point win with Jack Brogden a stand out having said to be incredibly close to the perfect 10 by coach Holt.
The Parade game was a great wakeup call for the boys going down by 61 points and which was a turning point for the season.
Whitefriars away was never an easy journey but the boys stood up to the challenge even with the MCG like cheering and booing from the Whitefriars fateful. The team spirits were up and about, with the game highlighted by the goal of the year from Dave Handley who gave the Whitefriars boys nightmares with a candy selling goal.
Round 5 saw us up against undefeated St Bede's and the boys started like a house on fire with a strong lead early. But to St Bede's credit they finished well to beat us by the post by 9 points.
The final home and away match was against St Bernard's with the stars aligning to make the winner of the game play against Bede's who had already locked in the home grand final. To add fuel to the fire Mr Holt overheard a few St Bernard lads say "these country fellas are no chance against Metro schools" which I gladly told the troops to get us up and about, which followed with a 53 point win in fine fashion.
We went into the grand final as the underdogs against St Bede's, and it was a hard fought match from siren to siren with a the little things just not going our way. Rumours have it Harry McMahon had to go to the local Police station to after being robbed of his clutch goal in the last two minutes which would have given us the lead.
Anyway… the year was a lot of fun and the boys had a blast! Special mention to the award winners; Best and Fairest David Handley; Runner Up Best and Fairest Jack Brogden, Harrison Ling and Aaron Stone; and Coaches Award Jack Purcell.
Congratulations to all the boys who made their debut for the school. The future of St Joseph's first XVIII is in safe hands.

Computational Characterization of 2-Azidocycloalkanamines: Notional Variations on the Hypergol 2-Azido-N,N-Dimethylethanamine (DMAZ)
|Report No.
|Michael J. McQuaid
|September 2002; 36 pages
|The fuel 2-azido-N,N-dimethylethanamine (DMAZ) has shown considerable promise as a replacement for hydrazine-based fuels in hypergolic propulsion systems, but the ignition delays observed for DMAZ-inhibited red fuming nitric acid (IRFNA) systems are longer than those for monomethylhydrazine-IRFNA systems. This report considers the potential of 2-azidodocycloalkanamine-based fuels for addressing this issue. Such molecules have two stereochemically distinct isomers, one of which prevents the azide group from "shielding" the amine lone pair electrons from proton attack. The other promotes such shielding. Since shielding likely influences the manner in which nitric acid reacts with amine-azide fuels, the ignition delays for the isomers may be different, and it is possible that one of the isomers will yield shorter ignition delays than DMAZ. To support consideration of the synthesis and development of 2-azido-N,N-dimethylcyclopropanamine (ADMCPA) equilibrium structures are identified and their gas-phase heats of formations estimated via density functional theory-based calculations. In addition, ADMCPA isomer condensed-phase densities and heats of vaporization are estimated via molecular dynamics simulations performed with halogen analogs. Combined and employed to predict ballistic properties, the computational results indicate that the ADMCPA isomers merit further investigation as hypergols. A suggestion for synthesizing cis?ADMCPA is also proffered.

throughout the industry, the D4's body is strikingly similar to its half-decade-old predecessor. There's no edgy new design to speak of, and all of the controls are exactly where you'd expect them to be. That's not to say Nikon didn't make a few tweaks, however. First, there's a full set of vertical controls for firing the camera and adjusting key settings without awkwardly reaching around the body to access the buttons up top -- an improvement that's sure to be appreciated by portrait and wedding shooters. The main shutter release was also moved slightly forward, for a more natural feel, and a dedicated movie capture button was added. There's also a new pair of joystick-like controls for navigating menus and moving around an image while zoomed in during playback. Overall, the additional controls improve upon the interface without introducing clutter -- an advantage granted by the generous body.

Chinese Sweet Sticky Rice
There are many traditional foods eaten at Chinese New Year, usually because they symbolize wealth, luck or good fortune. This sticky rice (粘饭) is a popular holiday dish that is eaten all over China. It can be made savory with smoked sausage or sweet with dried jujubes, goji, and raisins, and represents family cohesiveness. Hence the "sticky" in its name.
I am not even a fan of sticky rice and I loved this. Use whatever ingredients in whatever amounts you are comfortable with. It is a totally customizable dish; more of a template than a recipe. Crushed walnuts are substituted for oil, to keep the rice moist and shiny. Goji berries are added last so they remain intact and don't explode during cooking.
The sticky rice transforms into a bed of tiny translucent pearls studded with perfectly sweet, plump, juicy dried fruits. Serve on a dried lotus leaf for maximum presentation points! (and easy clean up.)
Chinese Sweet Sticky Rice
***for a savory version (which I prefer) prepare rice the same way (using a mix of black, white, and glutinous rice depending on how sticky you prefer) and mix in a handful of raw peanuts instead of the sweet ingredients in step 2. Pressure cook. When finished, stir in 1/2 a diced sweet chinese sausage. Let sit for 2 minutes and serve hot!
So pretty to look at, so gooey, so sweet. Enjoy with loved ones!

This release (v.6.3) marks the official launch of our new static site. One of the flagship projects for the SSHRC-funded Endings Project, MoEML has successfully demonstrated the feasibility of producing static editions of large-scale digital humanities projects. The new version of the site is comprised entirely of statically generated XHTML pages. Every time an encoder makes a change to our source XML files, our build server runs an Apache Ant build that recreates the entire MoEML site—not only the XHTML pages, but also

We have switched our modern map rendering from Google Maps to OpenStreetMaps / OpenLayers. This change means that all our map rendering code is now based on the same library (OpenLayers). We have also brought the version of OpenLayers used in the Agas Map fully up to date. This update frees us from dependence on Google APIs, which tend to change a little too frequently for our peace of mind. Programmer
MoEML is delighted to announce the appointment of Dr. Mark Kaethler to the MoEML leadership team. Mark brings to MoEML his deep knowledge of mayoral pageantry and classroom experience of teaching pageant books and having students encode them in TEI.
As Assistant Director, Mayoral Shows, Mark will oversee completion of MoEML's anthology of all the Elizabethan and Jacobean mayoral shows. We have published 12 of 31 shows, with a few more texts in draft or various stages of review and one critical essay (the latter intended for a Critical Companion). Mark has already edited two of the shows, one on his own (London's Tempe) and one with his students via a MoEML Pedagogical Partnership.
Now a full-time instructor at Medicine Hat College (Medicine Hat, Alberta), Mark received his PhD from the University of Guelph in 2016; his dissertation focused on Jacobean politics and irony in the works of Thomas Middleton, including Middleton's mayoral show The Triumphs of Truth. His work on politics and civic pageantry has appeared in the peer-reviewed journals Upstart and This Rough Magic. He is the co-editor with Janelle Jenstad and Jennifer Roberts-Smith of a forthcoming volume of essays entitled Shakespeare's Language in Digital Media: Old Words, New Tools (Routledge, 2017) and co-authored a piece on creating the digital anthology of mayoral shows with Jenstad for a forthcoming collection of essays on early modern civic pageantry.
This new role with MoEML affords Mark the opportunity to share his research skills in governance, civic communities, urban navigation, bibliographical studies, and the digital humanities with our readers and contributors.
Welcome to the MoEML team, Mark!

Venturing from the twenty-first century into the streets of early modern England hasn't always been easy, but thanks to this intricately detailed interactive Map, that is no longer the case. Users can search by street name or category of location, and by clicking on a particular building or street, the user is linked to a series of documents detailing its history and role in society. We appreciate the work that went into each component of this project, including the detailed Encyclopedia and the Library of primary sources that helped recreate this glimpse into the world of William Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth, and London's many lesser-known inhabitants.

Map of Early Modern London.
The present project is to locate on the Agas Map the remaining locations in the Map of Early Modern London's placeography and determine their GIS coordinates. Geolocating a historical street, site, or other location entails historical, archaeological, cartographic, and occasionally literary research. We then capture the fruits of that research in the XML gazetteer that populates the map. We map locations on the Agas Map using custom drawing tools. We use a custom API (Vertexer) to capture latitude and longitude coordinates from tiled map data. These two complementary mapping technologies enable us to give users both an Elizabethan image of the place (via the Agas Map) as well as a real-world location to which they can walk (via Google Maps).
This work allows scholars and students of early modern literature to understand how space and place figure in the writing of Shakespeare and his contemporaries. Mapping the places of cultural production enables us to understand the relationships between cultural producers like publishers and playhouses, and to visualize the flow of people and material culture around London.
Intern will geolocate London sites already identified by MoEML by researching archaeological, literary, and historical data, then adding geocoordinates to our XML files. Under the guidance of the MoEML project director and senior RA, the Intern will summarize the research and produce short abstracts for the MoEML Placeography. The Intern will also identify additional locations to be added to the MoEML Encyclopedia (such as taverns, conduits, and bookshops), and turn raw datasets into new location file for MoEML. We will provide training in XML, TEI, GIS, use of historical databases, research hygiene, how to conduct multi-disciplinary historical research, and project documentation.
The present project is to develop and implement static tiled maps for the Map of Early Modern London. This work will allow us to add additional historical maps to our OpenLayers mapping platform, make use of Open Street Maps data, and stabilize our technology for long-term archiving. The project will mobilize the geographical data added to the database by other RAs and make it possible to display our data on any georeferenced surface.
The intern will take on the role of Junior Programmer (Mapping). The intern will work with the Lead Programmer to add additional historical maps to the OpenLayers stack in MoEML, and to replace Google Street Maps functionality with onsite open map tiles. The successful intern may be involved in building new mapping tools, depending on the skills the intern brings to the position. We will provide training in XML, TEI, GIS*, OpenLayers, Electron (http://electron.atom.io/), and our custom APIs (e.g., Vertexer at http://hcmc.uvic.ca/people/greg/maps/vertexer/). The intern will be a full member of the MoEML team and will have the opportunity to produce and implement new technologies on the site. (*Note that we do not work in ArcGIS.)
This position will appeal to students who have experience in Historical GIS and/or the technical side of tiled map building; to students who have taken GIS courses in geography departments and who wish to extend their geohumanities skills; and/or to students who understand how to build tools from open source resources.
MoEML has a strong history of training students. On-site training will be provided. Intern will work alongside other MoEML team members in the supportive environment of the Humanities Computing and Media Centre.
The application deadline for both positions is September 20, 2016 at 4:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time.

The STLHE / SAPES website summarizes Tye's application thus:
Tye defines leadership as a community action, arising out of a community setting with communitarian aims. He regards himself as both a leader and a citizen in a variety of diverse communities. As president of the University of Victoria's English Students' Association, Tye has led numerous initiatives to foster interconnectedness, fairness, and opportunity among his department's diverse undergraduate student body. As an encoder and research assistant for Dr. Janelle Jenstad's
Map of Early Modern London( MoEML), a renowned digital encyclopedia, Tye has led a groundbreaking initiative to disseminate the project's technical instructions, methods, and workflow practices to digital humanists worldwide. Moreover, as a student with physical disabilities, Tye challenges ableist stereotypes and asserts the value of accessibility and inclusion in the undergraduate classroom. Tye's firm belief in the values of equality, self-actualization, democracy, and accessibility unites and guides his many efforts as a community leader. He identifies and intervenes when he sees these values threatened, unrealized, or underdeveloped in his communities. In this vein, Tye advocates for reforming the institutions and ideologies that isolate and oppress many undergraduate students on Canadian campuses. He believes that undergraduates can rejuvenate institutions of higher learning and transform their local and global communities.
Congratulations, Tye!

Awesome NY Times article. How often can we point out the wonders of this great little town. Imagine, we're only 7000 plus people yet the major NY Times newspaper focuses on our little Crotonbog (not so little with 1600+ visitors to the site). We're rich in history, tradition, heritage, beauty, neighborliness, caring, openness and acceptance of differing views most of the time..
Keep on growing crotonblog. You offer a unique tool for neighbor to talk to neighbor about both local and broader based issues. And for me, one who prides him/herself with knowing a whole lot of people in the village, it's fun to try to speculate on who the tag names belong to in real life.

For Immediate Release
Monday, February 23, 2015
Statement of AFSCME Pres. Lee Saunders: Strengthening Retirement Investments Is Key to Retirement SecurityWashington, D.C. —
AFSCME Pres. Lee Saunders issued the following statement in response to the Obama administration's move to strengthen retirement investment protections:
"Every American worker and retiree should be confident that their retirement savings will be there so they can live with dignity after a lifetime of labor, without being shortchanged by financial advisers giving inappropriate or conflicted advice in exchange for lucrative commissions.
"Today the Obama administration took a necessary step to ensure that tens of millions of working families will receive investment advice that directly benefits them rather than large profitable Wall Street firms.
"AFSCME applauds the administration's efforts to limit conflicts of interest and increase accountability and more importantly protect consumers who seek retirement investment advice. We encourage the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to review and finalize action on this long overdue consumer protection proposed rule."

Fiction: Spirituality
What do you do when sleep eludes you? Many "count sheep" but, Susan Trott chose a different way to deal with her insomnia. She began to envision a "Holy Man" and the pilgrims who would make their trek to see him to gain wisdom and understanding. Woven with bits of Buddhist philosophy, this engaging little book is a set of thirty four vignettes—each depicting a different character flaw in mankind. Each character flaw in turn becomes the perfect springboard for a story of enlightenment.
Author Susan Trott has written several novels including The Housewife and the Assassin, Don't Tell Laura, Incognito, and Sightings to name just a few. Her work has received praise from The San Francisco Chronicle and The Bloomsbury Review. Her writing is published around the world. Some has been optioned for motion pictures.
Joe is a quiet soul. He lives with several other monks in a hermitage on a nameless mountain top. Every summer, he welcomes the many pilgrims who travel to the mountain top to see him. Every year, more pilgrims come and the wait to see The Holy Man becomes longer. During the waiting period, human nature being what it is, stories within the story unfold. Sometimes a pilgrim has already learned a valuable lesson by the time he or she arrives at the door of the hermitage to see Joe.
The grandmother who never receives thank you notes from grandchildren, the man whose jealousy is all-consuming, the alcoholic, the veteran who can't forgive himself for the loss of life he contributed to during the war, the impatient woman, the self-absorbed "famous person"—all of these characters and many more make up a cast of incredibly human individuals. Readers are sure to see a bit of themselves or someone they know within these brief chapters.
Each character's story and redemption is told in an engaging manner reminiscent of a fable. Human frailties are exposed, character flaws are mended, and pilgrims go back out into the world as changed beings because of their experiences along to path to The Holy Man. Everyday concerns are examined with gentle wit, profound wisdom, and simplicity.
When the days become shorter and the temperatures become too cold for people to wait for days and days to see The Holy Man, Joe begins his own period of silence, solitude and reflection. He envisions the people who passed through his home during the summer—he imagines the changed lives they are living and creating.
As Trott brings this delightful tale to a close, she leaves her reader with a sense that there just has to be a sequel in the making... and, in fact, she did write a sequel (The Holy Man's Journey) which was published in 1997. It too is an engaging little book—but that is a book review for another day!

What Is Dentistry?
Dentistry is a branch of medicine that deals directly with conditions, diseases, and disorders of the mouth, jaw, gums, and teeth. Our primary objective at New Concept Dentistry is to diagnose, treat, and work to prevent these disorders from affecting our patient's overall physical health and wellness.
Who Is a Dentist?
Dentists are specialists who have completed extended schooling and training to care properly for their patients, treat oral diseases, and make an accurate diagnosis. Dentists Bruce G. Fay, D.M.D, Amanda Matthews, D.M.D, and Edward Bayley, D.M.D. have each received specialty training to meet your unique dental needs such as cosmetic dentistry, laser treatments, etc. Other dental specialties include the following:
• Oral and maxillofacial (includes surgery, radiology, and pathology)
• Endodontics (root canals)
• Pediatrics
• Orthodontics and dentofacial orthopedics
• Prosthodontics (implants)
• Periodontics (gum disease)
• Endodontics
Why Is It Important to Visit the Dentist?
Many people do not realize there is a direct connection between a healthy mouth and their overall health and wellness. Not only do regular visits to your dentist keep your teeth clean, they also prevent the following issues:
• Tooth decay and deterioration
• Premature tooth and bone loss due to periodontal (gum) disease
• Bad breath
• Help you achieve an attractive smile and raises self-confidence
• Reduces the chances of teeth from becoming discolored from drinks, food, and tobacco
• Strengthens your teeth, so you're smile will be beautiful for years to come
Visiting the dentist regularly also reduces the risk of staining from food, drinks, and tobacco. Dental checkups strengthen your teeth and help you attain the beautiful smile you were meant to have.
Do I Need to Visit the Dentist Even if My Teeth Feel Fine?
Unfortunately, many people put off going to the dentist until a problem presents itself. Wouldn't it be wonderful if you could prevent these issues in the first place? You can when you make regular visits to your dentist a priority.
The truth is that some dental problems aren't always visible to the naked eye. For example, gum disease is one such problem that you sometimes can't see or feel. Regular checkups will alert us to changes in your mouth that need attention right away.
Thanks to many cutting-edge and advanced techniques, today's modern dentistry can also help you improve your smile.
A quick trip to the dentist can open up a world of possibilities such as the following:
• Professional teeth whitening
• Dental bonding
• Natural-colored fillings
• Tooth replacement
• Full cosmetic smile makeovers
How Do I Pick a Dentist?
We would like for you to choose us for your dental needs in Wilmington, DE, but we know that choosing a dentist is not always that easy. We've learned over the years that when you are comfortable with your dentist the chances are higher that you will continue with regular dental care. Here are some questions to ask yourself before choosing a dentist:
• Does the dental practice offer appointments that work with my schedule?
• Can I get to the office easily or is it out of my way?
• Is the office staff friendly and do they take the time to answer my questions?
• Does the dentist seem invested in my oral health?
• Does the practice take my insurance? If not, are there payment plans available?
• Does the dentist specialize in new treatments?
• Is the dentist a member of the American Dental Association (ADA)?
At New Concept Dental, we work with all a variety of insurance plans. We have affordable payment options for patients not covered by insurance and patients whose insurance does not cover the full cost of treatment. We continuously strive to offer you the latest dental techniques and always take the time to listen to your fears and concerns.
How Can I Care for My Teeth in between My Regular Visits?
• Never skip brushing your teeth or flossing. Flossing should be a once a day habit, and you should brush your teeth at least twice a day; once after breakfast, and once before you go to bed.
• Use toothpaste that has fluoride in it. Also, ask your dentist about fluoride treatments to prevent cavities. Fluoride treatments are not just for children.
• Eat a healthy diet filled with vegetables and fruits. Avoid sugary treats. Sugar increases the amount of bacteria in your mouth that leads to plaque and cavities.
• Don't smoke and avoid other tobacco products. These products can discolor your teeth and also cause gum disease or oral cancer.
• Brush your tongue. Keeping your tongue clean and free of bacteria keeps your mouth healthy and prevents bad breath.
• Schedule routine checkups once every six months, unless we recommend a different schedule.
At What Age Should I Take My Child to the Dentist?
The American Academy of Pediatric Dentistry (AAPD) believes a child should visit the dentist between the ages of six months and their first birthday. While six months to a year may seem too young to visit the dentist, the AAPD recommends this age because it is the time that your child's first teeth will begin to erupt. We examine young teeth because we want to make sure they are coming in correctly and to address any concerns you may have. After this first visit, we recommend you begin a six-month cycle.
How Often Should I Schedule Dental Checkups?
Everyone, adults, teens, and children, should visit their dentist once every six months. These checkups help prevent problems and keep your teeth clean. There are exceptions to this rule though. If you are at a high risk for gum disease or are recovering from oral cancer, we may recommend you visit us more frequently. Together, we will determine the best schedule for you and your situation.
What Is a Cavity?
A cavity is a crack or hole that forms in a tooth as the result of tooth decay. Tooth decay occurs because of plaque on a tooth's surface. If the plaque is left alone, mouth acid will build over time and begin to eat away at the enamel on your tooth. You should not leave cavities untreated because this puts you at risk for serious problems like infections and leads to tooth loss. Cavities can be prevented by avoiding sugary treats, eating a nutritious diet, and brushing your teeth at least two times a day.
What Happens If I Get a Cavity?
If you have a cavity, you will need to have it filled with a dental restorative called a filling. Fillings are made of ceramic, gold, or other composites. We will suggest which material will work best for your situation during the initial consultation. After we remove all the decay from the cavity, we will then begin the process of filling the hole or crack with the filling material. If you are concerned about the pain associated with fillings, we can assure you that we go out of our way to make sure our patients are always comfortable. Drs. Faye, Redden, and Bayley offer sedation dentistry to help you relax and feel at ease during the procedure.
How Often Should I Brush my Teeth?
Good oral hygiene is essential to avoid cavities, tooth loss, and gum disease. But that doesn't mean you should go crazy brushing your teeth. Overly brushing your teeth can harm the enamel on the teeth's surface. According to recommendations from the ADA, you should aim to brush your teeth two to three times a day. You should also pay close attention to your tongue and your gums. Steer clear of toothbrushes with medium or hard bristles. Opt for a soft bristle toothbrush instead and pick toothpaste that has fluoride in it. You may also want to consider investing in an electronic toothbrush. These toothbrushes do virtually all the work for you and are excellent at removing the plaque. No matter whether you use a standard toothbrush or an electric toothbrush, staying on top of brushing and flossing will give you a winning smile.
How Often Should I Change My Toothbrush?
If it's been several years since you changed your toothbrush, throw it out now and head straight for the drugstore. Toothbrushes are meant to be disposable. They are not built to last for years and years, especially if you're faithfully brushing your teeth two or three times a day. Replace your toothbrush once every three months unless instructed otherwise. Individuals that use electronic toothbrushes will want to refer to the instructions that came with their toothbrush for specific recommendations. If you suffer from gum disease or have oral cancer, we may recommend more frequent changes.
Have you been sick recently?
If the answer is yes, as soon as you recover you'll want to toss your toothbrush and head to the store for a replacement. If you need help choosing a toothbrush, give us a call. We'll provide you with a list of suggestions.
How Do I Know If I Have Gum Disease?
Gum disease results from a buildup of plaque and, if left untreated, can cause significant oral health problems. However, if you are keeping current with your regular checkups, we will be able to spot early indicators and provide treatment to prevent major problems. Common signs of gum disease include the following:
• Redness
• Bleeding gums
• Receding gums
• Persistent bad breath
• Severe tooth sensitivity
• Loose teeth
Teeth grinding, genetics, tobacco use, and certain medications can also cause gum disease. In its earliest stage, known as gingivitis, gum disease is highly treatable. But, gum disease not caught right away, can lead to permanent tooth loss and bone loss.
Do I Need to Visit the Dentist If I Wear Braces?
Absolutely! Regular orthodontic treatment does not take the place of general dental care. An orthodontist is not responsible for cleaning your teeth and catching other problems. When you have braces, you are at an increased risk of developing certain oral health conditions like cavities and gum disease because food particles become lodged in your braces and hard to brush away. Regular cleanings can prevent this problem from happening. We work with you and your orthodontist to make sure you get complete dental care.
How Do I Schedule a Checkup?
Pick up the phone and make an appointment today! We're always scheduling appointments. Don't wait a minute longer. We'd love to hear from you.

There is an old adage that states, "Nothing feels as good as when you give something away."
Garaway head baseball coach Justin Elmore would beg to differ.
Elmore knew one thing coming into the Pirates' key Inter-Valley Conference game with defending state champion Hiland Monday, April 17 in Sugarcreek: that in the battle of Inter-Valley Conference undefeateds, his team could not afford to make errors and give the Hawks extra outs.
However, the Pirates put themselves in a hole early, committing four errors that keyed a 10-3 Hiland win that put the Hawks in the driver's seat in league play.
"We talked earlier in the day and felt that we needed to commit two errors or less, and when our middle infield commits four errors, we are not giving ourselves a shot," Elmore said. "That, along with the fact that we left a lot of guys on base and didn't come through when we had opportunities just killed us."
The game that would determine the leader in the IVC was circled by many, and there was a nice crowd on hand, but what they saw was far from a masterpiece.
"We did some things well, and I thought we ran the bases really well, but we made some mistakes, and what really frustrates me is that the runs they got are runs that we gave them," said Hiland coach Tom Gibson. "They probably are saying the same thing, because they gave up some runs too. But I don't like giving up any runs, regardless of the score."
Hiland's Chris Kline opened the game by drawing a walk off of Garaway starter BJ Schwartz. He moved to second on Tyson Gingerich's ground-out and scored when Bryan Yoder's long drive eluded the outstretched glove of center-fielder Micah VanFossen. With two outs, shortstop Peyton Miller couldn't handle Braden Mast's ground ball and Hiland led 2-0.
Mast toed the rubber for the Hawks and cruised through the first inning with ease, and Schwartz did the same in the top of the second. In the bottom of the inning Garaway took advantage of Mast's unusual wildness to creep to within 2-1. A walk, two hit batters and Ben Koshmider's RBI single plated Ian Hershberger, but Mast was able to wiggle out of trouble, leaving the bases loaded by getting a pair of ground ball outs.
Hiland got that run right back in the third inning, again courtesy of a Garaway error. With one out Andy Miller singled and stole second, and another error off the bat of Mast moved him to third, allowing him to jog home on Derek Miller's sacrifice fly.
Mast got an out in the bottom of the third inning, but couldn't find the plate, walking a pair that spelled the end of his night. On came Derek Miller, who threw brilliantly in relief, quickly getting out of the jam to keep the score at 3-1.
Hiland advanced the lead to 4-1 in the fourth, thanks to their speed. Chris Kline singled and stole second, and Tyson Gingerich rifled a line shot off the foot of Schwartz and into center field to plate Kline. Gingerich then stole second but was stranded.
Derek Miller simply dominated the fourth and fifth innings, retiring all six hitters he faced, and the Hawks went back to work. Andy Miller was hit by Schwartz, and after stealing second he scored when Mast scorched a shot down the left-field line for a double. Derek Miller then laced a single to right to plate Mast and Schwartz' night was over. With one out off of reliever Josh Yoder, Ryan Hershberger singled, and one out later Kline mashed a double to right-center to make it 8-1.
"We put the ball in play all night, and they failed to make some plays that opened the door for us," said Hiland coach Tom Gibson. "There were a couple of innings where they could have gotten out of trouble if they make plays, but we were able to put it in play and take advantage. We actually didn't play very sharp in the field either, and we do have some things to fix."
Hiland's Ryan Hershberger relieved Derek Miller on the mound for Hiland to start the bottom of the sixth inning, and the Pirates touched him for a run when Ian Hershberger singled and came around on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Derek Briggs.
Hiland would score its ninth run of the contest in the top of the seventh, when Kline walked and took second on a Gingerich single. Kline then parlayed a heady move into a run when he tagged up and advanced to third base on a pop-up behind the mound that was snagged by third baseman Quinn Miller. With nobody covering third, Kline raced to the bag ahead of several Pirates, and then scored on Andy Miller's sacrifice fly.
Garaway mounted a small seventh inning rally, getting doubles from Quinn Miller and Ian Hershberger, but it was too little too late.
Both teams squandered some good scoring opportunities, with the Hawks leaving 10 runners stranded and the Pirates leaving nine on base.
"We couldn't get the big hit when we needed it," Elmore said. "You've got to take advantage when those kinds of opportunities arise, and we didn't do a very good job of that tonight. I thought BJ did a great job of keeping us in the game and giving us a chance. You can't ask him to get any more ground balls. He did his job, but we didn't do the job in the field."
Schwartz went four innings, allowing six runs, four of them earned, while allowing six hits, walking one and striking out a pair. Yoder was nicked for four runs in two innings, with two of those being earned, while Briggs threw a solid frame in relief.
Derek Miller picked up the win for the Hawks, twirling a sparkling 2-1/3 innings of shut-out ball. He did not allow a hit, walked one batter and struck out three. Mast, who has been brilliant this year, couldn't find a rhythm, walking three and hitting a pair of batters while giving up one hit that produced the one run scored against him.
"I didn't think Braden was prepared, and we talked after the game to all of our pitchers about throwing between starts, and the importance of staying sharp," Gibson said. "Braden didn't throw any since his last start and it showed, and he understood the lesson. I at least like learning lessons in a win."
Hershberger struck out five in his 2-1/3 innings of relief, allowing four hits and two earned runs. At the plate the Hawks were paced by Kline, Gingerich, Bryan Yoder and Derek Miller, all of whom banged out two hits. Kline proved to be a real thorn in the side of the Pirates, scoring four runs, while Yoder and Derek Miller drove home a pair. Garaway was paced by Ian Hershberger's two hits, but the Hawks out-hit the Pirates 12-5.
Hiland now holds a one-game lead on Garaway in league play. The Hawks moved to a perfect 12-0 on the year while the pirates fell to 10-4 overall.
"If you want to beat that team you have to take advantage of opportunities and not give runs away, and we did neither," Elmore said. "But we have them again, so we'll see, but we have to get better defensively, regardless of who we are facing."
