Breaking down Ohio State's non-conference opponents: Toledo (Land-Grant Holy Land)

Generally, the football magazines pick Toledo to finish the 2022 season in the top third of the MAC conference. Athlon Sports puts the Rockets second, just ...

The Rockets haven’t seen the team speed that Ohio State will bring to the game. Offense: The Rockets have the nucleus of the offense back for 2022, but will have to find replacements for a couple of key positions. While these totals are impressive, they also suggest that Toledo didn’t go very deep, that these top players were involved in most of the snaps. Toledo will put up more of a fight than will Arkansas State, but I don’t think that the Buckeyes’ 100-year streak of in-state wins is in any danger. Safeties were in on the action as well. Likewise, the running game has lost its top performer in Bryant Koback. Koback could run inside or outside, and averaged 6.7 yards a carry in 2021, picking up a total of nearly 1,500 yards and 18 touchdowns. The wide receiver position looks a little shaky to me. And the attack was balanced: they rushed for 196.5 yards per game and passed for 239.1. On defense, the Rockets allowed only 21.8 points on average and gave up 4.8 yards per play. Finn should have good protection in the pocket, as four of the five starting linemen return from last year. Most of the players are three-stars, with a few two-stars thrown in. On this year’s team, for instance, the highest-ranked player coming out of high school is Dallas Gant, who transferred from Ohio State after being buried on the Buckeye bench in 2021. Additionally, a trap usually sits between two tougher opponents, presenting the possibility of overlooking the weaker foe.

Breaking Barriers: The Science Behind Bulletproof Glass – Now ... (Now. Powered by Northrop Grumman.)

Also known as ballistic glass, safety glass or security glass, this bulletproof barrier got its name from — you guessed it — the ability to stop bullets. But ...

Instead of eliminating these gaps, this approach looks to create a consistent air gap layer between a sheet of laminated glass and one of polycarbonate. As a result, protective glass is now used in a wide variety of protective applications. By layering thicker sheets of glass with PVB, PU or acrylic layers, the force carried by the bullet is distributed across a larger area rather than a single point. Although processes such as tempering and laminating glass can help to reduce the risk of random jagged shards, the glass itself remains no barrier to bullets. Allow your hand to move with the ball when it arrives, and the force is further reduced since you’re slowing the ball down over a larger distance. Put on a few pairs of fuzzy gloves and it won’t hurt as much because the material in each pair absorbs and distributes some of the force before it reaches your hand. The combination of these two techniques — glass hardening and chemical layering — set the stage for bulletproof materials development through the 19th and 20th centuries. The principle is fairly straightforward: Where typical glass will shatter into shards on impact from a bullet or other hard object, its bulletproof counterpart layers on materials such as polyvinyl butyral (PVB), polyurethane (PU) or acrylic that make it possible to absorb significant amounts of bullet momentum and stop shots from getting through. Striking the tail, meanwhile, provides a path to the interior tension zone which in turn disrupts the unstable equilibrium and destroys the droplet. Worth noting: The more layers added, the greater the chance of optical distortions in the glass, which in turn reduce the amount of light let in and the clarity of images. To understand the strength, let’s break down the science of building bulletproof barriers. It took years of research, risk and repeated efforts to create a substance capable of stopping bullets.

How officials say women are breaking barriers and changing culture ... (CT Insider)

New Britain firefighters Lauren Burns and Petra Chesanek recently became the first female lieutenants in their department's 190-year history, ...

The lowest 10 percent of firefighters earned less than $29,030, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $81,640, according to the bureau. Women must meet the standard, according to Ortiz, a retired Hartford firefighter with 23 years in the service, but he also noted that up to 70 percent of fire calls in New Britain are medical, which require empathy, compassion and communication skills more than physical strength. Men in the New Britain department have accepted their female counterparts and physical changes to stations necessary to accommodate women, Ortiz said. She made great friends, however, and her fellow firefighters supported her as she continued working through the first eight months of two pregnancies. “But for those who do not see these aspects of the job as deterrents, firefighting is an exciting, ever-changing, highly rewarding occupation,” the Women in Fire website says. The annual mean wage for Connecticut firefighters, according to the most recent figures from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, was $68,140. The good news, according to the NFPA, is that female firefighters are earning command positions and getting recognized in their communities. The median figure is the wage at which half the workers earned more than that amount and half earned less. Those numbers had not changed much from 2018, when the NFPA compared the number of female firefighters with women working in other professions. Women represent less than 10 percent of firefighters in the U.S., but the numbers have been steady or rising and more women are taking leadership roles. “The city intentionally fosters an environment within our fire department that provides opportunities for female firefighters to rise up through the ranks,” New Britain Mayor Erin E. Stewart said. In 2019, 8 percent, or about 88,800, of the nation’s 1.15 million firefighters were women.
