Unlike other of Canada's provincial high school athletics associations, the OFSAA is not an affiliate member of the United States–based National Federation of State High School Associations (NFHS).
Satafi
Satafi (Latin: Satafensis), was a Roman town in the Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis, North Africa. It lasted through the Vandal Kingdom and Roman Empire, until at least the Muslim conquest of the Maghreb, in late antiquity. An exact location of the town is not known but, it was probably in Algeria.

Like most of Mauretania Caesariensis, Christianity appears to have been not well established until after the Council of Nicaea.  A bishop of  Satafi, Ascendant, took part in the synod assembled in Carthage in 484 by the Vandal King Huneric, after which Ascendant was exiled to Sicily. A Donatist bishop called Saiacensis or Saiensis, has also been attributed to this town but instead he was probably from Saia Maggiore. Today Satafi retains a titular bishopric held by Eduardo Muñoz Ochoa, of Guadalajara, Jalisco.

First Council of Nicaea
The First Council of Nicaea was a council of Christian bishops convened in the Bithynian city of Nicaea (now İznik, Turkey) by the Roman Emperor Constantine I. The Council of Nicaea met from May until the end of July 325.

This ecumenical council was the first of many efforts to attain consensus in the church through an assembly representing all Christendom. Hosius of Corduba may have presided over its deliberations. Attended by at least 200 bishops, its main accomplishments were the settlement of the Christological issue of the divine nature of God the Son and his relationship to God the Father, the construction of the first part of the Nicene Creed, the mandating of uniform observance of the date of Easter, and the promulgation of early canon law.

A sawmill for lumber and maple syrup production were soon introduced for prisoner work.  Due to the length of the prison fence and rough terrain, exterior guards are mounted on horses.

Saint Andrew in Romania
The legend of Saint Andrew in Romania tells that today's territory of Romania was Christianized by Saint Andrew in the 1st century AD. While these claims lack any historical and archeological evidence, the legend has been embraced as fact by both the Romanian Orthodox Church and the Romanian state, both during Ceaușescu's protochronism period and after 1989, when Saint Andrew was named the patron saint of Romania.

The legend is recent and based on references by 3rd century writer Hippolytus of Rome in "On Apostles", mentioning Saint Andrew's voyage to Scythia and on works by several authors which also mention the voyage, such as: Eusebius in the Chronicles of Eusebius, Origen in the third book of his Commentaries on the Genesis (254 C.E.), Usuard in his Martyrdom written between 845-865, and Jacobus de Voragine in the Golden Legend (c. 1260). Scythia generally refers to a land in what is now Romania (Scythia Minor), Ukraine and southern Russia.

Inocybe praetervisa
Inocybe praetervisa is a small, yellow and brown mushroom in the family Inocybaceae, distinguished from other members of the genus by its unusual spores and bulb. The unusual spores led to the species being named the type species of the now-abandoned genus Astrosporina; recent studies have shown that such a genus could not exist, as the species with the defining traits do not form a monophyletic group. However, it is a part of several clades within the genus Inocybe. I. praetervisa grows on the ground in woodland, favouring beech trees, and is found in Europe, North America and Asia. It is inedible and probably poisonous due to the presence of muscarine. The ingestion of muscarine can lead to SLUDGE syndrome, and could potentially lead to death due to respiratory failure.

Inocybaceae
The Inocybaceae are a family of fungi in the order Agaricales, the largest order of mushroom-forming fungi. It is one of the larger families within Agaricales (gilled mushrooms). This family exhibits an ectomycorrhizal ecology. Members of this family have a widespread distribution in tropical and temperate areas.
