Unknown Spider with Mushrooms
Subject: Woodland spider identification help
Location: Woods, in rock crevice, Andover, MA
November 29, 2012 7:58 pm
I know you are really busy during the holidays, but I thought I would send the email and hope you catch this post. I was photographing mushrooms and inadvertently took a photo of this beautiful spider. I was hoping you could tell me what it is. I thought it was a type of wolf spider but the markings didn't fit.
Thank you and Happy Holidays.
Signature: Roberta
Hi Roberta,
Thank you for your kind holiday greeting. The eye pattern of spiders (See bugGuide) is one of the best means of classifying and identifying them, but alas, your photo does not show the spider's face. Nonetheless, we think this is a gorgeous photo and we are posting it. Perhaps one of our readers can tell us "What's That Spider?"

I pulled this guy out of the bird bath a while back and cannot, for the life of me, figure out what kind of fly it is. Any ideas?
Signature: Thanks, Anna Carreon
Hi Anna,
We believe this is another Flower Fly or Hover Fly in the family Syrphidae, but we haven't the time this marvelous rainy morning to sift through the possibilities on BugGuide. Let us know if you have any luck with species ID.

Buck Moth dead of natural causes
Subject: I swear I didn't kill it, despite the flyswatter in the photo!
Location: New Orleans, LA
November 21, 2012 9:56 pm
I found what I assume is a moth of some sort ALREADY DEAD on my patio 11/21/12. The flyswatter was used to transport it into the light so I wouldn't crush it with a paper towel.
It was in the mid 60's when I found it after being in the upper 60's most of the day. It definitely wasn't there the night before.
I put it next to a cd for size comparison and also included a closeup of the body and then also the wings.

Hi Jenn,
We were away from the office for Thanksgiving and we are just catching up on some old identification requests and posting the best of them. This is a Buck Moth, a species we featured in October. Buck Moths do not feed as adults and they only live for about a week. We are quite certain this individual died of natural causes.
Thank you so much for the identification and for the 'not guilty' verdict!
I'm relatively new to this particular area and had not seen such a large bodied moth anywhere before, unless they were introduced during one of the many times that I covered my eyes while touring the Audubon Insectarium!
I'm now pretty sure that I saw the caterpillar version also on my patio a few weeks back and fortunately had sense enough to steer clear of its threatening spines.
My father will be pleased to know that y'all were able to help me, as it was his suggestion to contact you. I was a bit concerned that I could have an impending invasion of moth aliens and his initial identification of "big freaking moth" was not exactly helpful in calming my worries.
Thanks again!
Since the caterpillars of the Buck Moth are social feeders, we would imagine that there could possibly be years with significant adult moth populations.
Robber Fly from Australia
Subject: What The!
Location: Northern New South Wales
November 29, 2012 9:27 pm
Found this inside my house last night, after recovering from a near heart attack I photographed and released it but would love to know what the heck it was as I have searched all australian bug websites and cannot find anything similar. It was approx 6 cm long
Signature: Kind Regards Caroline Thompson
Hi Caroline,
We are not sure if we will be able to provide you with a species name, but this is a predatory Robber Fly in the family Asilidae. We frequently use the Brisbane Insect website to identify Australian bugs, but we don't see any species there that look exactly like your individual.

Hopper on Milkweed
Subject: Daniel – More Bugs on Mexican Milkweed
Location: Hawthorne, CA
November 29, 2012 11:42 am
I know this photo is blurry, but I found these eggs on the back of one of the Mexican Milkweed leaves the other morning. There were three or four of those little gray bugs there at the same time. All but one left before I got the camera out and focused(?). Any idea what they are?
Signature: Thanks, Anna Carreon
Hi Anna,
The insect in the lower left corner appears to belong to the order Hemiptera which includes True Bugs as well as Hoppers. Hatchlings are often quite difficult to identify to the species level. This critter looks to us to be one of the Hoppers, though we cannot be certain.
Hi Daniel,
That's what I was afraid of. Oh, well. Guess we have to take some of the bad along with the good, eh?

The Writing Bona Fides: Software
I'm a lazy, lazy, lazy man. I mean, just writing that sentence exhausted me, and I had to go and have a shot of whiskey to regain my energy and lust for life.
I'm also an easily distracted man. I can't remember what I used to be like pre-Internet, but with the Internet sitting on my desktop, I am a cocaine monkey.
So, to recap; I am lazy and have the attention span of a small fly. And yet I am a professional writer of some success. Let's not quibble on what the precise meaning of success is in this context. Or professional. Or quibble. Let's just say I have sold some books and make a living with words, and yes, there are plenty of teachers in the Jersey City School System who would be very amazed to discover this.
When interacting with folks who want to be writers themselves, I get a couple of standard questions. You can probably guess a few of them — what's my process, will I read their manuscript, will I please give them back their cocktail, which totally wasn't mine to just grab off the bar — but a couple always confound me, especially questions about the software I use when writing a novel.
I usually respond by grabbing them by the lapels and screaming are you going to buy me a whiskey or what until they flee. But the questions stick with me, because whenever I answer I feel like a fraud.
The Stipulations
First, a stipulation. This is important.
I am a moron.
No, seriously — I'm an idiot. A charming, handsome, well-spoken, pantsless idiot. I am frequently ill-informed, I sometimes have trouble hearing people and pretend I understand what they're saying, I parrot opinions all the time and am easily confused and defeated in rhetorical competition. In short, for god's sake my experiences are my own and mine alone and nothing I say here is meant in any way as a proclamation. In other words, there are many, many paths to writing a novel or having a freelance writing career. If your experience differs from mine, that's great! I am a moron.
The Edumacation of Jeff Somers
The software question mystifies me, because writing a novel is the most straightforward thing you can imagine. You have an idea. You tell a story. It's literally a process of putting one word after another until you have, oh, 80,000 of them. That's it. It's that easy. That's one reason I aspired to being a writer in the first place, because it's easy.
Of course, not everyone thinks it's easy. I can understand that. Because it actually isn't all that easy — the process is easy. The intellectual effort of creating characters, premise, action, and coherent narrative is hard. But writing is and always will be the act of putting one word after the other. Until about 20 years ago, I wrote novels on a manual typewriter. On paper. I still have drawers stuffed full of hardcopy manuscripts. When I grudgingly switched to writing on a computer because no one wanted to receive 400 pages of typescript covered in coffee stains, correction fluid, and shocking pornographic doodles, I used an open source, free word processor and still do (Libre Office, currently).
And that's it.
The idea of using complicated software to track plot arcs, characters, and other minutiae frankly mystifies me. The idea that any App or software is helpful in any way is mystfiying to me. I've never felt the need for it, and can't see the benefit, and that alternatively makes me feel smug and triggers my Imposter Syndrome.
Imposter Syndrome
Sometimes the accoutrements of a profession, the jargon of a profession are comforting. You might not be at the top of your profession, but at least you know how to use the super secret tools that the rubes don't even know exist. At least you know the passwords. So when people ask me about the tools I use to write fiction and my answer is literally "Uh: words?" and they give me that look I know so well from all the times I have emerged from pub restrooms without my pants, I wonder if maybe I am fooling myself. Can you be a professional if you don't use any tools?
At other times my answer to that last question is fuck yeah you can. But the use of specific tools can make you feel like you're at least part of the club. When I'm on panels or in informal gatherings and a writer starts talking about the complex array of tools they use to write their novels, I do start to feel a little like the Slow Cousin, and I wonder, if only briefly: Would my work be better, or would there be more of it, or would it sell better if I started using some kind of magical software?
And then I am usually distracted by alcohol and forget all about it.

David W Hogg, New York University, "A data-driven model of stars"
Astronomy colloquium: May 4 @ 3:30 PM, ERC 161
There is a lot of knowledge built in to our physical models of stars. But there is even more information in the sum total of all the data ever taken of stars (tens of thousands of pixels of spectral data on many hundreds of thousands of targets). The Cannon (named after Annie) uses a small amount of physical modeling and a huge amount of data to build very precise, predictive, probabilistic models of stellar spectra.

Gov. Gary Herbert 'more than happy' to call special session to get Attorney General John Swallow investigation underway
Tom Smart, Scott G Winterton, Deseret News
SALT LAKE CITY — Gov. Gary Herbert on Thursday praised the Legislature's decision to investigate embattled Attorney General John Swallow as the start of a process that could lead to Swallow's impeachment.
House Speaker Becky Lockhart, R-Provo, scheduled the special session needed to launch the investigation for 9 a.m. July 3.
Lockhart told representatives in an email sent Wednesday evening that "we need to address this issue in a timely manner. I have great faith that this body will do what is best for the people of Utah."
Republicans in the House voted in an extended caucus Wednesday to call a special session of the Legislature so a committee to investigate Swallow can be created, but stopped short of beginning impeachment proceedings.
"Whether this is as fast or as aggressive as some would like, there's probably some debate on that issue," the governor said during the taping of his monthly news conference on KUED Ch. 7.
But Herbert said there was no real difference in whether the Legislature's investigation into Swallow — already the subject of federal, state and local probes into multiple allegations — begins as part of the formal impeachment process.
"This is a crescendo. It starts softer and will end up louder, using a musical term," the governor said. "This is beginning. It's not the end. But this beginning will tell us what the next step is."
Herbert said he "absolutely" will call lawmakers into special session if needed.
Lockhart has said she believes she has the power to call the House into session for the rule-making necessary to create the committee, just as she does in the case of an impeachment.
"The question is, does this investigation reach that level? There is some uncertainty on that," Herbert said. "But I can tell you, it's a moot point for me. If they need to have a special session to create this investigative committee, I'm more than happy to call them into special session."
Swallow told reporters after watching the House Republicans' deliberations online Wednesday that the Legislature "got it right" by choosing not to go forward with impeachment.
The attorney general said the investigation approved by fellow GOP lawmakers "is very different" from the probe that would have been conducted at the start of the impeachment process.
"Clothed in the impeachment power, there is a whole different process and a whole different ultimate result for challenges than there is in the normal process," Swallow said, declining to state if he believed the chosen investigation would be weaker.
Legislative attorneys told the House GOP caucus that investigating as part of the impeachment process does offer special protections against legal challenges. But House leaders apparently did not have the support for impeachment.
The details of the legislative investigation, including the makeup of the committee and the cost, are yet to be determined. House leaders said they expect to hire an attorney and an investigator to assist the committee, which will be bipartisan.
The governor said his role in the process "is as a bystander, making sure people are doing things correctly and, I guess, call them on it if they're not." He said the Legislature is exercising the necessary caution.
"At the end of the day, we want to have trust restored to the attorney general's office," Herbert said. He said his cabinet has assured him work by the attorney general's office has not been affected by Swallow's situation.
Asked if the attorney general should resign, the governor said Swallow needs to take into consideration what's best for him, his family and taxpayers.
"I'm expecting him, in fact, to do that," Herbert said.
Swallow, who faces allegations including that he helped broker a deal for a Utah businessman trying to halt a federal investigation into his business, said he will not resign and expects to be exonerated.

What age were you when you went back to work full time after being a SAHM?

Posted 28 November 2012 - 11:41 AM
[I originally posted this in the 'older mums' forum, but it's not getting much traffic there!]
For various reasons, DH and I didn't have our first child until I was 38, the second one at 40. Until then I had a highly paid job (probably overpaid for what I was actually doing) and DH worked fulltime. Our youngest now still has 3 years before starting school and I am considering being a SAHM with both of them until then (they both currently attend childcare full time but I recently finished work as i was on a fixed term contract). I am really having trouble finding another job and we can't afford to keep sending them to childcarecare on the chance I will find work soon. So I'm thinking of taking them out of care and staying home with them. But that means I will be 45 by the time I'd be re-entering the workforce. I know 'younger women' have this sort of gap in their careers all the time, but I'm worried about how much harder it will be then compared to now to find work again. My work is in a fairly niche area so jobs are hard to come by as it is.
So...what do you think? At what age did you (will you) be returning to work, if at all?
Posted 28 November 2012 - 11:44 AM
I had my first daughter at 30 and second at 33..I stayed home and started re-training at 37 and re-entered the workforce at 38 while training for a couple of years, then changed careers again.
I had no issues as I was retraining and age was no barrier in that case.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 11:52 AM
This is a good topic OP. I have not quite got to your situation but have been wondering about re-employment.
I had DS when i was 34 (I went back to work bw babies when DS was 9mo) and DD when 37 in jan this year. I am now pregnant with No 3 and have decided there is no point going back to work for 4 months, so will be out of the workforce for two years.
I have however retrained as a secondary teacher over the last couple of years, but will be 39 when I re-enter the workforce either in my old area or teaching.
I think I will go ok when I re-enter as I can demonstrate I was at least studying while on mat leave this year, so have kept my mind/skills active.
Could you maybe do some professional development in your area OP while being a SAHM? Another option to keep your skills up, is there any type of volunteer work that fits your skills, ie i know a few accountants who volunteer as the kinder treasurer while SAHMs. I think if you can demonstrate you have been active in your profession, albeit not necessarily paid, while you are a SAHM this will help you re-enter the workforce.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:05 PM
I think I will go ok when I re-enter as I can demonstrate I was at least studying while on mat leave this year, so have kept my mind/skills active.
I agree with keeping skills up to date but I think it's sad that there is an idea that being a SAHM means your mind isn't active. Off topic but I find that insulting. Just because I'm not in paid employment doesn't mean I spend my time staring at the walls/TV with my mind turning to mush. Not sure what other Mums do but I certainly don't sit around doing nothing with my brain (unless you count wasting time on EB. )

I went back at about 33yo. So my gap was when I was younger. Now in my 40s I constantly hear that it gets harder to change jobs, find jobs & get promotions from your mid 40s. I hadn't really thought that ageism would kick in that early (I know it will depend on skills, demand etc).
I've always thought that the assumption is that after a break of several years your skills and knowledge may not be up to date rather than your brain has turned to mush.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:18 PM
I would pull them out of childcare and stay home, but keep your eye on job ads, if something comes up that looks really good, apply and see how you go.
A lot can change in 3 years and you can change your mind about what you are doing at anytime. If you need to go back then be open minded about what you can do, once you are employed it is much easier to move around.
As well, look after yourself, you can go back to work as a 'young' 45 rather than an 'old' 45.
The most I am having as a break is two years, I need to work to pay the mortgage and despite having worked for 18 years, I still don't have a 'career' as such, hope to have one before I retire...

I had my first at 30 and have gone back 2 days. I am pregnant again and will be going back on maternity leave next year, so will be returning part time mid 2014. I'm hoping for one more child after this one but will not go back full time while they are little. I don't particularly want to go back at all but need to keep a foot in the door.
I don't anticipate retuning to full time work until I'm pushing 40.
I think if you can study something in the meantime if you are able to is a good idea, but like pp its very insulting that if you're not studying or working you are assumed to have no brain.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:29 PM
This issue plays on my mind often. That if I decide to go back into full time work I'll be in my mid 40s. And that maybe some young whipper snapper in HR might think I'm out of touch.
I had my first at 35, went back to work for a year when bub was 12 months and then stopped work again at 37 when number two came along.
I want to keep my options open, while having no interest in full time work at the moment. So I've been able to keep my hand in by doing freelance work for the past few years and that way I can at least show that I've maintained some connection to the workforce. If I wasn't doing this I think I'd pick up a course or a couple of subjects here and there to show I'm still engaged with my industry.
I think I should be ok to get a job in the future so long as I maintain my contacts. Plus I work in a female dominated area.
OP could you do any consulting or freelance in the future given you are in a niche area? Even just a little occasional project might be good.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:37 PM
What kind of industry are you in OP? I think different industries are more/less forgiving of a career gap. For example, IT strikes me as one of the tougher ones given the pace of development /change in that field.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 12:44 PM
I had DS when I was 37, nearly 38, I went back "casual" in IT when he was 3, I was 41 and a bit. I have been working "casual" or "part time" ever since.
I work in IT in value add role, consulting, sometimes training, I mainly contract to the software vendor who I previously worked for.
The only reason I don't work FT is because I don't want to. they are harassing me continually to go back to FT
Posted 28 November 2012 - 01:11 PM
I forgot to add I never went back to work full time, and only recently work full time flexi hours because I work for myself. I've worked for myself for about three years in two roles.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 01:51 PM
I had my children at age 35, 37 and 39. I went back to work part time earlier this year, but on a very casual basis. I am currently working for my old boss in a similar role, but for a different organisation. I am not planning to work full-time until 2015 at the earliest, when DD starts full-time school, so I will be 45, but I may stay part-time even then.
I am fortunate that I have been able to start back at work in my same field, and I am now waiting on a call after interviewing for a more serious part-time job which my boss recommended to me. If I get this, I would see myself working part time for the next 2 years, then when I'm ready to go full-time, for it to be in the same place.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 06:10 PM
I had my first at 30, my second at 32. I'm now 41.
I went back part time by the time my babies were one, but VERY part time, i.e. 10 - 15 hours a week approx, in a variety of casual roles.
In an ideal world I'd never work full time again, and neither would DH, but part time roles are hard to come by. At least, part time jobs that pay more than $14 an hour are!
I am currently job seeking again. I'm finally realising my age may count against me, as I would be going into entry level positions that would lead into a career type job. I am only now considering full time work, after 10 years out, but would prefer 20 - 30 hours per week.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 07:03 PM
I had my first baby at 22 and my second at 25 and my third at 27. Then I stayed home to look after them until my youngest was 18 and had a car, so I retrained on computers and was able to get a job in a medical clinic at 45. I had been out of the workforce for a long time, but I had kept up with things by being a secretary for various hobbies and I kept my brain active. I retired 6 years ago and I keep my brain active with this computer and I trained for two years to be a breastfeeding counsellor and now I go onto the helpline for 4 hour shifts, twice a month.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 07:15 PM
I was a young mum in my early 20's when we had our first and was only just getting my career established. I worked casually in my own business in my career and casually in unskilled work until my youngest reached 3 yo kindy, then returned part time. Full time now.
Though I was working casually, I usually worked 20 hours, some weeks 60 hours. The hours worked in with DH though so no cc was needed. Most overtime was paid which was lovely.
I had no issues returning to the workforce and I've already turned down a promotion because I'm not ready to commit to more hours (already working 60 hours most weeks). I am at the younger end but I also had less experience.
The best decision I made was to sta connected to my industry though as I coud prove that I coud make a difference in the industry and that I had kept up with changes.
Sorry, I was 30 :-)

I became a SAHM when I had DD when I was 34, I haven't been back to work since (didn't have a job to go back to), but I have applied for a couple just to get some interview experience. Unfortunately, I don't even get call backs, so haven't really had the interview experience.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 07:47 PM
I had DD when I was 34 and DS when I was 37. I returned to work at 40 (and a half )
Posted 28 November 2012 - 08:42 PM
This time I am 38 when I returned, I have kept pretty busy in between with a small home based business since he was born, but returned to paid work this year.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 08:47 PM
I have never been a SAHM, just some maternity leave, but I'm 43 now and I wouldn't like to be trying to get back into the workforce after too long a break at this age.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 08:52 PM
I always imagined I would be a SAHM for 6 months at the mininum and 2 years maximum, depending on family financial situation, but after having looked after a baby for ONE day... I might revise the minimum to 6 weeks lol

I had my children at 33, 35 and 37. Except for 12 mths mat leave with No. 1, and 6months with 2 & then 3, I have worked casually/part-time always. I *hope* to return FT (school hours if possible) when the youngest starts primary school, still 4 years away. Don't miss FT work at all - did it for 15 years prior to kids.
Posted 28 November 2012 - 09:05 PM
I only had ten months off (plus one month sick leave and six weeks holidays) after having Molly. Went back to work aged 38. Still going.

Ooohhhh I like this. very true
Posted 29 November 2012 - 07:13 AM
I left my job of 7 years at age 27 & I returned to work this year almost 5 years of being a SAHM at age 32. TBH I found it very difficult to get a job due to being out of the workforce for so long & because I don't have a 'career' the industry I was returning to needed up to date skills, I am studying for that so I think in the end that helped.

I had a high-paying job in banking when I had my first baby at 28. It's the sort of job where you either go back full time or not at all, so I didn't go back. I had my second and final baby at 30.
I have completely changed my career focus and am re-training, too. I start my Masters degree next year. It's something I can do from home, organise my own hours and in a few years when the kids are in school, can become as busy as I like, still from home.
The money will be woeful for a few years, but that's a sacrifice I've decided (and can afford) to make. the best part is that I'm really passionate about it and it satisfies my creativity.
