teacher, an ex-friend
and a guy, Royale pours
her heart into the EP,
drawing
inspiration
from a wide variety of
artists such as Stevie
Wonder, The Broods,
P!nk, John Mayer,
Michael Jackson and
The Beatles. Royale has
sung and played the
piano for almost all her
life, but she started
writing her own songs
at 14 years old.
"After writing my first
song, I remember sitting
at the piano and just
soaking it in," she
remembered. "The fact
that I just put my
thoughts and feelings
into my own song was
awesome.
It
was
unreal."
Since then, she has
come a long way with
an abundance of support
from family, friends and
fans. Her ultimate goal
is for her music to
inspire people across
the globe.
"I want my music to do
for people what it does
for me; music heals, and
music inspires," she
said.

(NAPSI)While
professionally cleaned
ductwork can be like a
breath of fresh air to
many houses, there are a
few facts you should
know when its time to
have your homes air
ducts cleaned.
1. In a typical six-room
home, up to 40 pounds
of dust are created annually through everyday
living. Your heating and
cooling system is the
lungs of your home. The
dander, dust, chemicals
and other contaminants
are pulled into the
HVAC system, where
they can build up and
possibly contribute to
health problems, especially for people with
respiratory conditions,
autoimmune disorders
or allergies.
2. According to the
U.S. Department of
Energy, 25 to 40 percent
of the energy used for
heating or cooling a
home
is
wasted.
Contaminants in the
heating and cooling
system cause it to work
harder and shorten the
life of your system. A
clean HVAC system
doesnt have to work as
hard so it uses less
energy.
3. When you do hire a
professional cleaner, ask
if it belongs to NADCA,
a trade association of the
HVAC inspection, main-
willing to conduct a
thorough inspection of
the HVAC system prior
to per- forming any
work and disclose any
problems discovered?
Will the contractor
clean the supply and
return air ductwork, the
airstream side of the
heat exchanger and the
secondary
heat
exchanger?
After cleaning, are
access panels properly
sealed; blower blades
and compartment clean
and free of oil, dust and
debris? Point a flashlight into the cooling
coil. Does light shine
through? It should if the
coil is clean. Check to
make sure the coil fins
are straight and evenly
spaced and the coil drain
pan is clean and that it is
draining properly. Do
the filters fit properly
and are they the proper
efficiency
recommended by the manufacturer?

(NAPSI)Millions of
school choice supporters
are planning to participate in special events to
raise awareness about
opportunities in K-12
education.
At present, individuals,
schools and organizations across the country
have planned over
10,000 events to bring
attention to the issue.
The events, which are
independently organized
and funded, will include
information
sessions,
roundtable discussions,
movie
screenings,
rallies and other special
events.
The goal is to shine a
positive spotlight on all
galvanized millions of
additional
parentsthose
without
optionsto
demand
greater choices for their
own children, Campanella said.
Campanella predicted
that the number of
events planned for 2015
will be more than 60
times larger than the
first celebration in 2011,
because people see it as
an opportunity to start
thousands of individual
conversations
about
educational choice in a
positive,
forwardlooking, fun, nonpolitical and nonpartisan way.

Parauda, co-director of
the gallery. Taking the
summer to study and
create a body of work
enriches not only the life
of Ms. Blatt, but also
that of her students. We
are pleased that she has
been so forthcoming in
sharing her craft with
the community.
Aside from several oil
paintings that will be on
display,
Ms.
Blatt
created an interactive
installation inspired by
her time on the island.
Each person who visits
the installation will have
the chance to put his or
her mark on the piece,
so that its shape and size
will change over time,
explained Ms. Blatt. It
is thrilling to relinquish
control over the final
product and give that
authority to the audience.
Ms. Blatt, who joined
Blairs faculty in 2013
as a painting and drawing
teacher,
looks
forward to introducing
her artwork to the community, as well as giving
students an opportunity
to learn more about their
teachers professional
work outside of the
classroom.
A number of students
have seen pieces in
progress over the course
of the fall semester, and
a few even helped to
create the installation,
she explained, adding
that she is eager to
engage in dialogue
about her work with
