Videoclipe

O videoclipe de "Guilty" foi filmado em Los Angeles em 2004. No vídeo, a banda está executando a canção em um quarto escuro. Um fotógrafo tem inúmeras fotos de pessoas diferentes, e da banda, mas durante a revelação das fotografias algo parece errado. As fotografias se transformam em representações de pessoas angústiadas, medo e dor para os diferentes aspectos da vida.

Today's Observer gives an interesting glimpse into the sort of government that David Cameron may lead with speculation that billionaire Tory donor Lord Ashcroft may be given a top foreign policy role in a future Conservative government. The source of this sopeculation is that he has accompanied the shadow foreign secretary to key meetings overseas.
The paper says that the peer, who pumps millions of pounds into marginal seats but refuses to say whether he pays tax in Britain, is flying William Hague around the world and went with him on his recent trip to the US, during which Hague met Hillary Clinton, the US secretary of state, and other key US figures.
Liberal Democrat Treasury spokesman Lord Oakeshott sums up the views of many of us when he says that Ashcroft's role is a matter of deep concern and shows that Cameron's claims to be promoting transparency at all levels of the Conservative party were "bogus".
"Why is Lord Ashcroft at the heart of Hague's discussions in the US? The shadow foreign secretary taking a free trip on Ashcroft Airways is distasteful enough. But having Lord Ashcroft as a key player is worse. Refusing to say whether he pays full British taxes and his extreme anti-European views should disqualify him from any government position."
All parties do it, the problem with the Lib Dem's they are never in power. Labour have given donors the honour of being called sir, others have had jobs which in the end returned the money they have donated.
Its a shame which is why I do not bother walking to the polling stations anymore.

The Welsh Liberal Democrats have, of course been in power, as have the Scottish Lib Dems. If you are unhappy with the choices facing you then you should stand yourself. That is what I did and it is the only way to maintain a healthy democracy.

I am a Procrastinator. All together now '…aarrrgh poor Joy'. If I say it quickly enough it sounds like a virtue, the way we admire Arnie Schwarzenegger for his 'terminating' skills. But unfortunately I won't be offered a movie contract any time soon for strutting my "procrastinating" skills on stage & screen.
Procrastination : Putting something off till tomorrow that can definitely be done …today!
Temporal Myopia is an evolutionary state of 'short-sightedness' which prevents us seeing the long term benefits, when faced with a more attractive short term solution.
Hyperbolic Discounting stops us from showing caution when presented with important must-do information. The brain reduces the importance of future based decisions which leads to people risking their lives, health and their wealth.
Let me give you an example: I stop displaying any common sense & foresight, and become childlike when faced with having 1 sweet right now, versus 10 sweets tomorrow …short-term gratification means eating the sweet right now, to avoid the long-term discomfort of waiting until tomorrow – when I would gain 10!
I've spent an awful lot of my adult life avoiding an imaginary pain, and substituting it with an imaginary pleasure. So what alternative activities have risen to the top of my To-Do-List this week?
Well, I'm sure you'll all agree that the following are essential – cleaning the oven, weeding the garden, surfing the internet , cleaning the windows and unblocking the sink? Especially in the face of – doing annual tax returns, making that all important phone call …or writing a business proposal.
The irony is that although I avoid unpleasant tasks today with a high (but imaginary) pain rating, I never seem to feel any happier the next day? In fact my thoughts and behaviour creates a vicious cycle where I end up feeling more anxious, guilty and worried about the things I haven't done.
Perhaps the only way to get over this is …to just do it! Bite the bullet, go through the imaginary pain, and emerge the other side with a huge boost to my self-confidence and my halo firmly in tact.
I'm a great believer in reward systems too, I'm motivated by the carrot, not the stick.

\section{Introduction}
The analysis of physiological processes and early detection of certain diseases \cite{Wan11} requires sensors capable of probing subtle changes in temperature \cite{Cor18}, pH level \cite{Pur15, Che18}, and concentration of biological fluids and gases \cite{Pur15} in hard-to-reach places inside living organisms such as the brain \cite{Wel05}, spinal cord \cite{Lu14}, ovarian tract \cite{Wan15} and blood vessels \cite{review}. Such changes can often be sensed as small shifts in the optical refractive index of bodily fluids and tissues \cite{review}.

Microstructured exposed-core optical fibres (ECFs) provide a broad range of optical properties demanded by biomedical refractive index sensors intended to operate inside living organisms \cite{War09, Kos12, Mes14, Bal17}. ECFs confine and guide light in a small volume of a dielectric material surrounded by longitudinal air holes (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}). One of the holes is open along the entire length of the fibre, which allows using it as a sample chamber where a portion of the guided light evanescently extends above the fibre and provides light-matter overlap and enhanced interaction required for sensing.

\begin{figure}[t]

The two modes co-propagate, re-couple and interfere near the output edge of the fibre.}}
\label{fig:fig1}
\end{figure}

Here, by theoretically considering a thin dielectric layer created on top of a standard ECF (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}), we show that the guided mode can be split into a surface sensing mode and a mode that is isolated from the surface. The isolated mode is immune to environmental changes, but the surface mode is highly sensitive to small refractive index shifts in the outer environment across the entire fibre length. We show that interference between the two modes can be used to create a fibre-optic sensor capable of detecting shifts in the optical refractive index with $60,000$\,rad/RIU-cm sensitivity. Such sensitivity is comparable with that of two-arm interferometers \cite{Hai09, Qin16}, two-mode one-fibre interferometers based on elliptical core fibres \cite{Kim87}, mismatched-core fibres \cite{Can97}, liquid-crystal-clad fibres \cite{Che06}, and photonic crystal fibres \cite{Cho07}.

\section{Two-mode microstructured exposed core fibre}

We consider a standard ECF structure \cite{Sch17} (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}) that consists of a Y-shaped silica core (the refractive index $n_{co}=1.4607$, $2.2$~$\mu$m size) formed by three elliptical air holes ($n_{air}=1$) \cite{War09, Kos12, Mes14, Kos14, Sch17}. Two of these holes are fully enclosed by silica, but the third hole is open such that the top surface of the Y-shaped core can be accessed from the outer space across the fibre length. The exposed surface of the Y-shaped hole is covered by a dielectric layer of uniform thickness $h$ and optical refractive index $n_{dl}$. We consider $n_{dl}$ from $1$ to $2.5$ because the dielectric layer deposited on top of a realistic ECF can be made of Teflon ($n_{dl}=1.36$), silica glass ($n_{dl}=1.46$), a polymer ($n_{dl}=1.49$), tellurite glass ($n_{dl}=2$) or other high refractive index materials \cite{Li07, Kos14, Bac19, review}. The optical properties of such fibre originate from the small Y-shaped core with the dielectric layer (inset Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}) and therefore only this region is considered in our analysis.

\begin{figure}[t]
\centerline{
\includegraphics[width=7.5cm]{Fig2.eps}}
\caption{Dispersion characteristic of the ECF with the $100$-nm-thick dielectric layer. The colour map is composed of individual power density spectra calculated for $n_{dl}=1-2.5$. The peaks in these spectra trace dispersion curves, but their magnitude corresponds to the relative fraction of the power in each guided mode (encoded as the intensity of red colour). The insets show the modal intensity profile in the $xy$-plane of the fibre whose contours are outlined by the white curves.}
\label{fig:fig2}
\end{figure}

Figure~\ref{fig:fig2} shows the dispersion characteristic of the ECF and the representative modal optical intensity profiles in the $xy$-plane. An finite-difference mode solver was used \cite{Mak04}. The wavelength is $532$\,nm and the thickness of the dielectric layer is $h=100$\,nm. Qualitatively similar results were obtained for all wavelengths across the visible spectral range as well as for the fibres with the other experimentally accessible \cite{Kos14} dielectric layer thicknesses $50-200$\,nm.

The bare fibre ($n_{dl}=1$) supports two guided modes with the effective refractive indices $n_{eff}=1.183$ and $n_{eff}=1.377$. The mode with $n_{eff}=1.377$ is the fundamental mode and the other mode is a higher-order guided mode.

At $n_{dl}=1$, the two modes behave independently -- their resonance peaks are separated and have different magnitudes and linewidths. However, because of a strong dependence of $n_{eff}$ of the higher-order mode on $n_{dl}$, the two modes hybridise at $n_{dl} \approx 1.7$, which is evidenced by hybridisation of their respective modal intensity profiles (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig2}), nearly equal magnitude of their power density peaks, and avoided dispersion curve crossing \cite{Tan18_1}.

At $n_{dl}>1.8$, the hybridisation disappears and the two modes again become independent resonators. The fundamental mode regains a profile similar to that of the bare fibre. However, the profile of the higher-order mode becomes completely different -- the light is localised in the dielectric layer where the refractive index is higher than that of the core.

At $n_{dl} > 1.7$ there also appears the second higher-order mode with the light localised at the interface between the Y-shaped core and air. Initially, the fraction power carried by this mode is low, but it gradually increases as the value of $n_{dl}$ is increased.

In the following, we will consider the regime of $n_{dl} > 1.8$ where the guided modes strongly confine light in the core and the dielectric layer. We will not consider the regime of mode anti-crossing ($n_{dl} \approx 1.7$), although that regime would be suitable for other applications \cite{Tan18_1}.

\section{Analytical model of sensitivity}

{\color{black}As the light propagates along the fibre section with the dielectric layer of length $\ell$ [Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}(c)], a phase difference arises from the difference in propagation constants of the fundamental mode in the Y-shaped core, $\beta_{co}$, and the higher-order mode in the dielectric layer, $\beta_{dl}$. A fraction of the power in the higher-order mode can be coupled back into the fundamental mode. The out-of-phase component results in an interference effect that can be observed as an oscillating attenuation measured as a function of wavelength at the output edge of the fibre.}

We use the perturbation theory \cite{Snyder} where we assume that the refractive index of the dielectric layer is perturbed as $n_{dl} + \Delta n_{dl}$, but that of the fibre core remains unchanged. This idealised model allows us to validate the analytical formalism presented below and also corresponds to a realistic scenario of temperature sensing \cite{Li07}.

The phase of fringes arising due to the interference effect is $\phi = \frac{2\pi \ell \Delta n_{eff}}{\lambda} = \ell \Delta \beta$, where $\lambda$ is the wavelength of light in free space, $\ell$ is the length of the fibre section with the dielectric layer [Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}(c)], and $\Delta \beta {=} \beta_{co} {-} \beta_{dl}$ is the difference in the propagation constants of the interfering modes. Under the condition of sufficiently small $\Delta n_{dl}$ we obtain $\beta_{dl} = \bar{\beta}_{dl} + k \bar{\eta}_{dl} \Delta n_{dl}$, where $\bar{\beta}_{dl}$ and $\bar{\eta}_{dl}$ are the unperturbed propagation constant and the fraction power of the mode guided in the dielectric layer, respectively, and $k$ is the wavevector. Thus, by following \cite{Can97}, the refractive index change $\Delta n_{dl}$ can be related to the measurable change in phase $\Delta \phi$ as $\Delta n_{dl} \approx \frac{\lambda \Delta \phi}{2\pi \bar{\eta}_{dl} \ell}$.

In Fig.~\ref{fig:fig3}(a) we plot $\Delta n_{dl}$ as a function of $\Delta \phi$ for several representative fibre section lengths $\ell$. We consider a dielectric layer material with $n_{dl}=2$, which in a practice would correspond to tellurite glass \cite{Li07}. We observe that by using a sufficiently long section of the fibre, one could sense refractive index changes of ${\sim} 10^{-6}$ by using a single interferometer arm for the interfering modes and without disturbing the mode propagating in the core of the fibre.

We also calculate the phase sensitivity \cite{Can97, Qin16} as $S_{\phi} = \frac{\Delta \phi}{\Delta n_{dl} \ell}$. For the practical scenario \cite{Can97, Li07} of $\Delta \phi = \pi$ for $n_{dl} = 2$ we obtain $S_{\phi} \approx 17,000$\,rad/RIU-cm. This value is of the same order of magnitude as $S_{\phi}$ predicted for a slow-light Mach–Zehnder interferometer \cite{Qin16}. In Fig.~\ref{fig:fig3}(b), we plot $S_{\phi}$ as a function of $n_{dl}=1.8...2.4$. The model predicts a gradual decrease in $S_{\phi}$ from $60,000$\,rad/RIU-cm to $3,000$\,rad/RIU-cm, which is consistent with the diverging behaviour of the dispersion curves of the fundamental and the first higher-order modes (Fig.~\ref{fig:fig2}).

The thickness of the dielectric layer is $100$\,nm and $n_{dl} = 2$. For example, at $\ell = 150$\,cm one could sense refractive index changes of ${\sim} 10^{-6}$ leading to the change of phase $\Delta \phi = \pi$. (b) Phase sensitivity as a function of $n_{dl}$.}
\label{fig:fig3}
\end{figure}

\section{Rigorous numerical simulations}

We numerically verify the analytically predicted sensitivity in Fig.~\ref{fig:fig3}. FDTD simulations of centimetre-long fibre sections are very impractical due to prohibitive computational resource requirements. Therefore, in our analytical model we simultaneously increase $\Delta n_{dl}$ and decrease $\ell$ to the micron range to maintain the same value of $S_{\phi}$. We make sure that $\Delta n_{dl}$ remains small enough not to disrupt the validity of the approximations made in the analytical model. Thus, we choose $\ell=50$\,$\mu$m and $\Delta n_{dl} \approx 3.66 \times 10^{-2}$.

Figure~\ref{fig:fig4}(a) shows the fringe pattern calculated by collecting and Fourier-transforming the light emitted from the output edge of the fibre [Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}(c)]. The observed fringe shift $\Delta \phi \approx \pi$ at $\sim 534$\,nm is in good agreement with the predictions of the analytical theory. The small shift of the fringe from the nominal wavelength $532$\,nm is an artefact.

Figure~\ref{fig:fig4}(b) shows the simulated optical intensity profile along the length of the fibre. We observe a picture predicted by the modal simulations in Fig.~\ref{fig:fig2} -- the light is guided through the fibre core and the dielectric layer, and the optical energy is periodically exchanged between the fibre core and the dielectric layer. In the fibre core, the coupling leads to a shift of the fundamental mode profile closer to the dielectric layer, which results in a zigzag pattern extended along the $z$-coordinate. The light localisation in the dielectric layer follows this zigzag behaviour by creating a chain of equidistant hotspots. The spacing between these hotspots equals ${\sim}2.0$\,$\mu$m and it is in good agreement with the predicted period of interference effect at $\lambda=532$\,nm and $n_{dl}=2$ calculated as $\lambda/\Delta n_{eff}$ using the data from Figure~\ref{fig:fig2}.

\begin{figure}[t]
\centerline{
\includegraphics[width=8.5cm]{Fig4.eps}}
\caption{ (a) Calculated fringe pattern produced by the $\ell=50$\,$\mu$m fibre section with the dielectric layer {\color{black}[$\ell$ is defined in Fig.~\ref{fig:fig1}(c)]} with the unperturbed refractive index of the dielectric layer ($n_{dl}=2$, solid curve) and the perturbed refractive index ($n_{dl}+\Delta n_{dl}$, dashed curve). In agreement with the analytical theory, the phase shift $\Delta \phi \approx \pi$ is observed at $\sim 532$\,nm. (b) Optical intensity distribution in a short region of the fibre. }
\label{fig:fig4}
\end{figure}

We also show that the investigated ECF is highly sensitive to changes in the refractive index, $n_{out}$, of the medium located above the dielectric layer. In this case, the refractive indices of both fibre core and dielectric layer remain unchanged, but that of the outer medium is perturbed as $n_{out} + \Delta n_{out}$. This scenario is difficult to analyse analytically because of the need to calculate leaky-mode losses \cite{Cho08}. Hence, we employ  the FDTD method. Figure~\ref{fig:fig5} shows the fringe patter calculated for a $50$-$\mu$m-long fibre section with the dielectric layer. We use $\Delta n_{out} = 9.2 \times 10^{-2}$ and $n_{dl}=2$. We observe a phase shift of $\sim \pi$ and we obtain $S_{\phi} = 6,830$\,rad/RIU-cm.

\begin{figure}[t]
\centerline{
\includegraphics[width=8.5cm]{Fig5.eps}}
\caption{Fringe pattern produced by the $50$-$\mu$m-long fibre section with the dielectric layer with the unperturbed (solid curve) and uniformly perturbed (dotted curve, $\Delta n_{out} \approx 9.2 \times 10^{-2} $) refractive index of the medium located above the dielectric layer. The refractive indices of the core and dielectric layer, $n_{dl}=2$, are constant.}
\label{fig:fig5}
\end{figure}

\section{Conclusion}
Our analytical modelling and numerical simulations have demonstrated that we can make a single-arm interferometric sensor by coating the core of a microstructured exposed core fibre with a high refractive index material. We show that the proposed fibre structure can guide light in both the core and coating, thereby satisfying conditions for strong mode interference and providing the sensitivity of up to $60,000$\,rad/RIU-cm. Single-arm fibre-optical interferometers are simpler and more robust than those based on two arms, and therefore the investigated fibre structure should be especially suitable for sensing of small refractive index shifts induced by temperature changes, chemical reaction or certain diseases in living organisms.

Buffalo Zoo community names new baby rhino Mohan
Thu, Jul 11th 2019 03:45 pm
Mohan and mom, Tashi, will make public debut on Friday
On June 17, Tashi, the 24-year-old female greater one-horned rhino at the Buffalo Zoo, gave birth to a healthy male calf. Members of the Buffalo Zoo community have selected Mohan as the name for the calf via an online poll.
Tashi and Mohan will make their first public debut on Friday at the Buffalo Zoo.
After a long, 16-month pregnancy, Tashi began showing signs of labor on June 17. Later that evening, she gave birth.
Mohan, whose birth weight was 123.5 pounds, was conceived by artificial insemination using sperm from a male rhino at Zoo Miami named Suru. The procedure is truly historic and significant, as the Buffalo Zoo is the only organization with two successful births using artificial insemination in a greater one-horned rhino. The first successful procedure took place in 2014, with Tashi giving birth to her third calf, Monica.
Both procedures were conducted in partnership with Dr. Monica Stoops and the Center of Conservation and Research of Endangered Wildlife (CREW) at the Cincinnati Zoo.
The Buffalo Zoo said, "The successful birth demonstrates that artificial insemination is a repeatable and valuable tool to help manage the greater one-horned rhino population in North America. With only around 100 greater one-horned rhinos in zoos in North America and approximately 3,500 remaining in the wild, being able to successfully introduce genetics that are non-or under-represented in the population is critical to maintaining the genetic diversity necessary to keep a population healthy and self-sustaining."
Poll participants were given the option of four names: Mohan, Howie, Raj and Ollie. Mohan was the top pick with 44.7% of the 21,426 votes. The name means "fascinating, charming and enchanting."
"We know our guests will marvel at how cute baby Mohan is, but we also want everyone to know that he is important to helping save and advance conservation of the greater one-horned rhino," Buffalo Zoo President and CEO Norah Fletchall said.
Starting July 12, Buffalo Zoo guests can visit Tashi and Mohan daily from 10 a.m. to 4 pm. Guest should know that visibility is not guaranteed, as mom and baby continue to become familiar with their outdoor habitat. The window for best visibility is in the morning from 10 a.m. to noon.

The need to belong is met by having a place where you can be yourself, in all the struggles that entails. A place where you can be accepted as you share and deal with feelings, needs, desire, longings, and hope. You belong when you know that you can be celebrated in joyful times and grieved over in times of loss. Belonging affirms your worth as a person.
The need to matter is met through being appreciated for your own individual giftedness—what is born into us, and is developed. The gifts are an active expression of what you naturally are drawn to and desire to share. We all desire others to notice and appreciate what we are good at doing and enjoy. But the gifts, their development, and performing in your gifts never become your worth.
The need to matter is met through being appreciated for your own individual giftedness.
If the need to belong is not met first, the need to matter can become confusing. The need to matter can become a performance-driven sense of worth. It can become a way to earn belonging through achievement, approval seeking, and people pleasing. In other words, your worth becomes as valuable as your last performance. That mistaken belief can create a roller coaster of desperation.
If the need to belong is not met first, the need to matter can become a performance-driven sense of worth.
His son was offered a full scholarship to play a Division-1 college sport. During the coach's recruitment spiel, he told the son, "The only thing that matters to me is the number on your back and your stats. I'm a fair coach." After the meeting, the son said, "Not interested. That is not enough." He went on to take a scholarship at a "lesser" school, one that had a coach that talked about development as a person and then a player. The son knew he could belong in that program, and the performance of his gifts would be an extension of that belonging. He would be a person first, then a producer.
That man's son went on to play professionally, and attributed much of his success to the coach that loved him first, and then appreciated his stats. Even during an extended period of injury, the son didn't live in fear of not mattering because he belonged first.
The son was under no illusions about how sports or life work—we have to perform—but the father had raised the son to know the difference. After the son's career as a player ended, he still had a future to live, not just a past to remember. He has been doing so as a successful coach, teaching personal development first, and then the game. His players still come back to see him, and he knows their names. They matter to him.

Ayeka is an ancient Hebrew word that is still used in daily life today. It means, "Where are you?" It is used today when a person, parent, friend, compatriot wants to know about your inner-world, the heart experience of you. It is a question spoken towards someone who has become emotionally removed, distant, unknown, or even secretive, and it is a question of invitation spoken from one who loves and reaches to have reunion of heart. Ayeka assumes loneliness, missing, heartache, and concern from the speaker who seeks to hear from the heart of the one being questioned.
As a word of pain, it expresses a groan or lament towards another. The one who asks the question has heartache, and has a hunger to be close again. Ayeka laments, "You are lost to me and need to be found by me because my heart aches with missing you, wondering about you, craving to see you from the inside out. It is a question that seeks a renewal of intimacy.
There are times when Sonya asks me, "Where are you?" even when I'm sitting beside her. She obviously can see me. What she wants to know is what is going on inside of me, what preoccupies my heart, has removed me from her. I might ask the same of her when she seems to be emotionally removed or distant. It is a caring courageous question of love.
In Genesis 3:9, the word ayeka is used when God speaks to Adam. God is not asking about Adam's physical position. God knows that Adam has removed himself emotionally and spiritually. "Where are you?" in Genesis 3:9 is a groan, a lamentation of God who loves and knows that his created ones, his people, have removed themselves from how they were created to live.
We are continually called and created to live in relationship—from the inside out.
Adam answers the question as it was meant. He speaks from the heart: "I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid." Adam had removed himself from whom he was created to be, connected in heart to God. God wanted him back. Proof is in God's response when Adam spoke the truth of his heart. After he revealed the truth that God already knew, a relationship begins again. The long road to redemption that is in Jesus began that day.
And today, ayeka is still spoken by God to us, all the time, calling us to show up in relationship of heart with God, and others, by telling the truth about ourselves.
We are not created to remove ourselves from relationship, to do life alone, in our own self-sufficiency, false independence or technological "intimacy". We are continually called and created to live in relationship—from the inside out. We are called to speak the language we were created to use, so that we would not be trapped by isolation, cursed by apathy, or abandon ourselves to secretiveness.
God is beautiful and good, always and forever seeking us out, willing to groan as an expression of never giving up on how he created us to live in relationship. Our response-ability is to use the courage we were created with—we can surrender to the one who created us to answer the question. We can also use that courage to ask the question, ayeka, of others.
Ayeka, where are you? God wants to know. Your loved ones want to know. Let us not live without the answer. Let us continue to return to the language of the heart, the language God created us to speak. In so doing, we can live in the intimacy of continual reconciliation with God and the others who hunger to know us.
We can live in the intimacy of continual reconciliation with God and the others who hunger to know us.

YSU Women's Golf Looks To Repeat Success of Last Year
By Nathanael Hawthorne
The Youngstown State University women's golf team medaled in seven of 12 matches and invitationals on its way to the Horizon League playoffs last season.
The team now looks to ride that momentum and make it back to the championship.
So far this year, the Penguins have won the Roseann Schwartz Invitational and placed second in the Bucknell Invitational, giving them two medals.
"I couldn't be more pleased with our performance," Penguins coach Nate Miklos said. "The important thing is to continue to build on that heading into the rest of the season."
The members have a strong attitude moving forward as well. Miklos said he believes the team's experience is a big factor in its overall attitude.
The team's members are relatively young with 7 out of 10 being freshmen or sophomores.
Last year, more than half of the members were freshmen, but the age difference hasn't hurt team chemistry.

According to sophomore team member Victoria Grans, the addition of new members has helped the competitive nature of the team.
"We got three good, new players on the team," Grans said. "We are a more competitive team this year than last year, so every one of us feels that we need to play even better."
In addition to the competition the incoming freshmen bring, they also bring out a sense of leadership for junior team members Kara Raines and Tori Utrup.
"We have a couple of strong freshmen players, and Tori and I will practice [with them] and lead them to a great season," Raines said.
As a whole, the team's expectation for the season is to make it back to the conference championship.
In its first invitational at Mill Creek Golf Course, the team won by 36 strokes. In that invitational, YSU had five team members finish in the top 10. They had each of the top four spots with two of them tying for first. Grans and sophomore Puthita Khuanrudee shared first place honors.
In the team's second invitational, it missed first place by four strokes. As a team, members shot a three-round total of 898. Khuanrudee led the way, while YSU had three players crack the top 10.
"We're off to a great start," Miklos said. "I think we've got a really talented team, and I think as long as we keep doing the things that we need to throughout the year, it's going to be a very good year."
While not wanting to pressure themselves too much, the Penguins are excited to possibly raise the bar this season.
"I have high hopes for the season this year," Grans said. "It's important to not put too much pressure on ourselves, so we're taking it one tournament at a time."
Looking forward, the Penguins have two matches coming up: the Silver Lake Shootout, hosted by the University of Akron, and the Dayton Fall Invitational, hosted by the University of Dayton.

Japan's Base Food, nutrition complete food startup, raises $3.7M for US expansion
Base Food
Tokyo-based Base Food, developing nutritionally complete food products capable of becoming staple foods named Base Pasta and Base Bread, announced on Monday that it has secured 400 million yen (about $3.7 million US) in a series A round. Participating investors in this round are Rakuten Ventures, XTech Ventures, Global Brain, and several unnamed angel investors. This follows their previous seed round funding from Global Brain back in November of 2017. With this funding, the startup expects to expand their business globally in partnership with Japanese e-commerce company Rakuten, the parent of Rakuten Ventures. We were told that this effort targets the US market in particular, where two-thirds of their adults and one-third of children overweight or obese and are trying to be more conscious about nutrition and health management. Base Food is the food-tech startup founded in April of 2016 by Shun Hashimoto, formerly engaged in the autonomous driving business at DeNA and other activities. The company targets those who do not know which nutrients to take, as a complete nutritious food allowing intake of 31 kinds of nutrients just in a single meal. It does not only have functional immediacy, but also provides satisfaction with its delicious taste and…

See the original story in Japanese. Tokyo-based Base Food, developing a nutritionally complete food product capable of becoming a staple food named Base Pasta, in late October announced it had raised 100 million yen (about $880,000) from Japanese VC firm Global Brain in its seed round.

As the number of people who are increasingly conscious about their health grows, Base Pasta targets those who do not know which nutrients to take, as a complete nutritious food allowing intake of 31 kinds of nutrients just in a single meal. Unlike other complete foods such as Soylent or Comp, Base Pasta does not only have functional immediacy, but also provides satisfaction with its delicious taste and can become a staple food. Hashimoto commented on the concept of Base Pasta.

Hashimoto explained:
The idea of nutritiously complete foods like Soylent are excellent, but it may be difficult for some people to adopt because they are forced to change their eating habits into drink-based ones. I thought that improving conventional food itself would be better than serving something new.
The purpose of a meal is to take in nutrients, in addition to having a close relationship with others or to enable change in mental pace. At the Peperosso Italian restaurant in Setagaya, Tokyo Peperosso or the Odorumen Akira food truck, menus with Base Pasta have been already served.
Asked about its taste, they quickly cooked it in the office kitchen. Photo shows one with tomato sauce.

Although Base Pasta can be easily cooked with separately sold sauces, the firm is expending efforts to create recipes which offer higher levels of nutrition and satisfaction with support from many nutritionists and restaurants. Alex Ramirez, the manager of the professional baseball team DeNA Baystars, recommends Base Pasta to players who need to be aware of nutritional management while having tight schedules. Hashimoto noted about the business plan:
As gradually becoming recognized by the market while only a year having passed since foundation, the business balance is going into the black on a single month basis. Our speed of execution is highly evaluated by investors with this fundraising. I think the secured money can be used for future business positively without producing deficits.
To the US, the complete food's birthplace
Base Food is going to advance into the US later this year and throughout next year. The firm expects Amazon or D2C (direct to consumer) with regular purchase model as its distribution channel as in Japan. Hashimoto thinks it is significantly meaningful to venture into the home of health consciousness since D2C has an affinity for healthcare.
Well, why was such a complete nutritious food with a good taste capable of being staple food born in Japan, not in the US?
Hashimoto said:
Yes, what we are doing may be "Columbus's egg". It is what anybody can do once heard the idea, but few people hit the idea and further few people actually do.
I think the reason why no product capable of being staple food exists in the US where complete nutritious food was first created is because they tended to focus on the increase of drink-style variation as seen in organic Soylent. Additionally, the idea of making staple food healthy may be easy for the Japanese to come up with. Well, the Japanese love tasty food.
Sometimes startups face language or culture barriers in overseas countries in their international development, but the Base Food team shows great eagerness to target global market with food. Following Kombucha which attracted New Yorker's attention or Oi Ocha Tea which is favored in Silicon Valley, can Base Pasta penetrate into the new market as a health-conscious food from Japan.

After our reception, I was waiting for Mike to change out of his tuxedo and I felt sort of lost. I didn't know where I belonged. I couldn't wait with my parents because I was married and they just gave me away. I just had this feeling of separateness now that Michael is my husband. We were a new family. We belonged together. It was a strange and unexpected feeling.
On the other hand the next day it felt so normal being with Mike, yet very different at the same time. For example, we went shopping at Forever 21 except this time we were spending our money and I was with my husband. It's such a hard feeling to explain, but our relationship just felt so solid and strong. I wasn't just shopping with my boyfriend, I was with my husband.
Being together feels different especially around other people. I feel more confident with him by my side and less awkward.
We had a wonderful honeymoon in Cuba, I'm so grateful we were able to get away. I miss the evenings where we would sit out on our balcony reading the Bible and our devo books together and just talking and watching Fernando the gecko.
At the same time, the reality of life always looms over one's head while on vacation. Honestly, I was really looking forward to returning home. I wanted to experience everyday life with Michael. To live in our apartment together and go shopping for our home. The first few days back after our vacation was just fun and blissful in a different way.
How much I miss him when we're apart.
Honestly, I'm glad we're not together all the time. I need Courtney time and he needs Mike time. At the end of the day, I'm so ready to come home to him. The past few days Mike has been away visiting his dad.
I'm grateful he can spend some one on one time with his father especially after all the stress of his AZ course. I have really missed him these past few days. It's been so quiet, I miss hearing his voice and silly remarks. At the same time, I'm learning to lean on God for comfort and support when I start to feel sad.
His family feels like my family. I feel a stronger bond with Mike's family since being married.
Michael is the sweetest husband ever! Honestly, I'm so blessed.
One day I came home from work and he had made me supper and did the dishes. He was also about to make the bed which he never does.
He's brought me breakfast in bed a couple of times.
I can't look to Michael to define me, complete me or validate me. I know this, but it's a lot harder to accept it on an everyday level. I'm learning to seek my worth from God.
He says I am fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). I'm in the midst of learning this truth and it's really hard because I struggle with insecurity and feeling not good enough.
I know that to be a good wife to Michael I first need to have a solid relationship with God. One where He is working in my heart to change the things that need to change. I'm so grateful that God brings us through situations where he grows our faith. I don't want to remain stagnant in my walk with Him.


Myke's Pro Landscape is a mycorrhizal inoculant, specially formulated for all soils. They've designed it to work best when transplanting the majority of trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants.
Mycorrhizae are fungi that are found in the soil, forming a symbiotic relationship with plants. When they settle in root systems, they create a network that increases the plant to absorb water and nutrients. In many soils, mycorrhizae have been depleted to levels that are ineffective. Myke products aim to increase these levels, so that plants are able to grow at optimal rates.
Prepare the planting hole. Apply the recommended amount of pro landscape at the bottom of the hole and directly to the lower half of the root ball. Product must be in physical contact with the root ball prior to back filling. Fill the hole and water well.

Yellowing and wilting of leaves.
White foamy liquid - 'spittle mass'.
Dying of young plants.
Spittle- mass (a foamy liquid formed by the introduction of air into the watery excretion) is the most obvious evidence of feeding by nymphs on the plant. Female insect lays eggs in the soil near the host plants. After the eggs are hatched, nymphs begin to feed gregariously on roots and stems close to the soil surface. Both nymphs and adults suck on the sap and destroy the plants. The feeding by both nymphs and adults harm and debilitate the plants by sucking on them and injecting a toxin that blocks or prevents the circulation of the sap.
The Demerara froghopper, also known as spittlebug (Depois flavopicta) is an insect that causes damage to several crops, among others rice and maize. Females lay eggs in the soil, close to the host plants. After hatching, the nymphs start to feed gregariously on roots and stems close to the soil surface. They form a "spittle mass", which is a white foamy liquid formed by the introduction of air bubbles into their own secretions. A spittle mass is an evidence of feeding by nymphs on the plant at that location. The presence of susceptible grasses in or around the fields (species of Brachiaria or Axonopus) can increase populations. They are attracted to these plants and use them as alternative host to support their life cycles.
Time available for hatching is significantly reduced with decreases in overnight temperature and the prolonged exposure of eggs to cold temperatures. This early hatching can reduce the populations of this insect.
Always consider an integrated pest control program with preventive measures and biological treatments if available. Crop seeds could be treated with systematic insecticides to prevent the attack by Depois flavopicta.
Monitor the field for the presence of white foamy liquid on leaves (spittle mass).
Control alternative hosts in and around the field.

Home News Report: Spurs set to appoint key new recruitment chief from Everton
Report: Spurs set to appoint key new recruitment chief from Everton
Image: @snapshotspurs
Tottenham Hotspur are set to boost their recruitment staff by appointing Chris Perkins as their 'new head of emerging talent', Football.London have revealed.
Perkins spent all of his playing career in the lower leagues, starting his career at Mansfield Town before joining Chesterfield, for whom he made 147 appearances in all competitions over five years.
The 47-year-old has built an impressive career in recruitment following his retirement from the game.
He previously served as the head of recruitment for Derby County's academy and saw oversaw a lot of young talent successfully transition into the first team during his time at the club.
He joined Everton in a similar role just last year but it looks like Tottenham have poached him from the Merseysiders.
Football.London reveal that Tottenham, who have been restructuring their off-the-pitch staff, consider Perkins as a key man to improve their academy set up.
It is explained that the club want Perkins, along with new managing director of football, Fabio Paratici, technical performance director Steve Hitchen and academy manager Dean Rastrick will be tasked with bringing the best young players from the 17 to 21 age bracket into the club's academy.
It is evident that one of the prime motives behind Tottenham's re-structuring is to put more focus into the recruitment of the best young talent into the academy and their development.
The arrival of Paratici and Perkins clearly signals that Spurs hope to better identify the brightest young talent and with the appointment of Nuno, they hope those players would have a clear pathway into the first team.
That is clearly the best way to close the gap with the likes of Manchester City and Chelsea as we are not going to be able to compete with them in the transfer market anytime soon.

Ron Roggé on "CSI: Miami" - 2 (2009)
Ron Roggé (Captain Mitchell, Lightspeed) made his second appearance this season on "CSI: Miami" in the episode "Point of Impact." The episode has the CSI crew investigating a fatal car crash. When they discover that a passing jogger was actually the driver of the second vehicle (who fled the crime scene) they take him into the police station for questioning. Roggé's unnamed police officer is on-duty when the jogger collapses in a cell. Roggé calls CSI's Jesse Cardoza (played by Eddie Cibrian) who is nearby with the man's sister. Cardoza notices the man not breathing and tells the officer to go for help. Roggé is the officer who goes for assistance. While he appears on screen for only a few seconds, he has several lines. Roggé's first appearance as a Miami police officer came earlier this season in the episode "Hostile Takeover," which is the episode where Cardoza joined the CSI team.
Season 8 of "CSI: Miami" currently airs on CBS

Today a new hydrogen fueling station, delivered by H2 Logic, was inaugurated in Esbjerg. With the new station hydrogen fueling is now also offered in the fifth largest city and the most western part of Denmark – further underlining the status as the world's first countrywide hydrogen station network.
The station is placed at a conventional fueling station operated by OK and located in the city center right next to the highway connecting Esbjerg with the eastern part of Denmark.
The hydrogen station in Esbjerg will be used by Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles delivered to various local users, among others the City of Esbjerg.
The Esbjerg station is operated by Danish Hydrogen Fuel A/S (DHF), a joint-venture between the oil company OK, gas company Strandmøllen and H2 Logic. DHF now operates four hydrogen fueling stations in Denmark.
Hydrogen for the Esbjerg station is delivered from a central electrolyser plant operated by Strandmøllen and based on technology from the H2 Logic sister company NEL-Hydrogen. The entire Danish hydrogen station network is based entirely on hydrogen produced from electrolysis and electricity procured with CO2 certificates. This ensures a 100% sustainable and zero emission hydrogen supply – the highest share in the world for an entire station network.
The Esbjerg station, as well as the remainder of the Danish network is based on H2Station® technology from H2 Logic that provides 70MPa fast fueling in accordance with international standards. H2Station® technology has a long proven track-record of reliable operation and is used on a daily basis in several European countries.
The hydrogen station in Esbjerg is supported by the Danish Energy Agency in the H2DK project.
