A BID is a defined area, within which businesses pay an additional tax or levy to fund projects within the district's boundaries for public improvement. Improvement projects typically include such things as street cleaning, providing security, capital improvements, construction of pedestrian and streetscape enhancements and marketing or promotions.
Victor H. Ravago, a Midway Community Planning Group member, informed the city advisory group recently of progress being made in forming a new Midway BID.
"I've been trying to mobilize business leaders," said Ravago, general manager of Hampton Inn in the San Diego-SeaWorld/Airport area.
Ravago said he has been working with the San Diego BID Council, an umbrella group overseeing the operations of
18 separate BIDs citywide. About
25 percent of the city's small-business operators are located within the boundaries of one of the city's 18 BIDs.
"Our goal is to reinstate the existing (dormant) BID in Midway," Ravago said noting the objective in reestablishing a BID would be to "get some grants and corporate sponsors to get some serious dollars so we could beautify the area and also enhance safety in the neighborhoods."
Ravago said an initial informative meeting to lay the groundwork for establishing a new BID is planned for a date and place in April.
He said the primary challenge in getting a new BID up and running is to "get a buy-in from all the business leaders in the area."
The entire region could benefit, said Ravago, because "we really do believe Midway is a gateway community to those neighborhoods." He said collaboration is essential to coexistence and "there are a lot of shared common goals between all the particular neighborhoods."

Upgrade your kitchen with a Dual Fuel Range
A dual-fuel range is a kitchen range that, as the name suggests, uses more than one fuel type. Dual-fuel ranges typically offer a gas cooktop and an electric oven. These ranges are popular with serious cooks because they combine the best of both; an electric range and a gas stove. Gas cooktop burners offer more accurate heat control than electric, but an electric oven tends to offer better heat distribution for baking. Abt carries a large selection of dual-fuel ranges, from the best brands in kitchen appliances, like Thermador, Viking and Dacor. Create the kitchen of your dreams by adding a dual fuel range that satisfies the cook in you You can also check out our Range Buying Guide for more information on all of the different range types available.
Featured Videos of Ranges
Make sure your kitchen is set-up properly for a Dual Fuel Range
When shopping for new cooking appliances, especially if you're upgrading from an electric range, it's important to be sure your kitchen is set up to accept a dual-fuel range. You'll need a natural gas line to feed the gas cooktop, but also a 220-240v electrical outlet to power the electric oven. If you've previously had an electric stove, your electrical supply will be sufficient. But the plug behind most gas stoves is only 110-120v and will need to be upgraded to support a dual-fuel range.

Why Do Patents Tend To Cause More Harm Than Good?
from the monopoly-economics dept
At one level, it goes back to basic fundamental economics. Any given monopoly is going to be bad. There are economic rents associated with a monopoly. It limits the supply available and increases the cost, acting as a deadweight loss to society. That's absolutely true with patents as well (as much of the research has shown). However, there are a few more reasons why patents tend to be a net negative. First, let's focus on why the reasons in favor of patents aren't particularly strong.
The first is that it should act as an incentive to create the product. Yet, as the research has shown, that's almost never true in practice. More innovation tends to happen with weaker patent laws, and when stronger patent laws are put in place, the pace of innovation decreases. The reason is that real innovation almost never happens because of patents. Very few people invent stuff "to get a patent," but because there's a need in the market and they can help solve it. That's true with, or without, patents. Furthermore, it's that need in the market that is the real incentive for innovation. If you can serve a market, there's a way to make money from that market, and that acts as plenty of incentive.
The fears that an "easily copied" product will damage the original inventor are also wildly overblown. Study after study after study has shown that there is a distinct first mover advantage, and even things that are easily "copied" doesn't mean that the copycats get success in the market. People put a premium on buying from the original creator. Furthermore, they often believe (correctly in many cases) that the original creator has a better understanding of the market, and is likely to continue to innovate faster and with better solutions. Finally, in the worst case scenario, where a copycat is able to do a better job, that's also not a bad thing, because the societal benefit is still a better product. It's called competition, and is generally considered a good thing in a market economy.
Another popular claim is that patent benefit us via "disclosure." Because patents require the inventor to "disclose" the invention, the idea is that these patents will spur additional innovation as others learn from the patents and build on them. The idea is that there's obvious benefit in keeping the idea secret, so in exchange for disclosing the idea, the government gives the inventor a monopoly. However, this is easily shown to be false. First, very few patents these days are written to the point where they actually disclose enough to be useful. They tend to be broadly written in a way that can cover as much as possible. However, there's an even better simple logical rationale for why disclosure is a myth when it comes to patents. If the inventor truly believes there's tremendous value in keeping the idea secret, he or she will still keep it secret. There's no real benefit to disclosing it to get the patent. You get just as much benefit from keeping it secret. The only benefit is if you think that others will be able to figure out the same concept in less time than it takes for the patent to expire. In other words, if you realize that others will be able to come up with the same thing in that amount of time. So getting a patent prevents others from doing that. But if you truly believe that it would take longer than the length of the patent to figure out its secrets, then you'll keep it quiet anyway.
As for why the downsides to patents are almost always present, it's based on a fundamental understanding of how innovation works. If most innovation was a single burst of inspiration, then patents could make sense. However, in a scenario where innovation is an ongoing process of building, trying, adjusting, building, trying, adjusting -- then patents are likely to be harmful. They add a cost and a hassle at many of the steps along the way. They add a series of hurdles that involve time, money and effort for each step of that process. That, alone, significantly slows down innovation. Studies have shown, in fact, that most innovation is an ongoing series of innovations rather than a single burst of inspiration. Furthermore, great breakthroughs tend to come not from a single mind, but in different people looking at the same problem, learning from each other and building on each other's work. By throwing tollbooths into that process, you slow down the innovation.
Thus, the supposed benefits of patents rarely are all that beneficial, and yet the downsides to patents are quite large and show up quite often. So, it should be no surprise that the research shows patents tend to do quite a bit to slow down innovation, rather than accelerate it.

Introduction and Questions from a Beginner
I've been lurking and browsing this site for a few weeks and thought it was time to introduce myself. I've been baking for several years but only recently have begun concentrating on bread baking. I only have the time to bake about one or two loaves a week so the learning process is slow going. This site has been wonderful for me because everything I've done so far has been self taught and sometimes this can be very frustrating. Thank you for all of the great advice, pictures, etc.
I do have a few basic questions regarding equipment:
1. I currently do not own a baking stone but would like to acquire one. I have a small electric oven. Would the Fibrament rectangular baking stones be the best way to go. I don't have a car so obtaining tiles or other heavy stones from a home improvement store would be difficult so I would like to order something online.
2. I posted on the thread about Thermapens a question I had regarding its accuracy at gauging the temperature in the center of the loaf since it registers so quickly. Am I better off buying a simple probe thermometer for taking the temperature of the bread? I think I am having issues with underbaking.
That's it for now. I appreciate in advance any responses.:-)

What Does Wind Look Like?
With the wind blowing over 80 mph across Wyoming over the last couple of days, this cool little thing is right on time. The folks at hint.fm put together a map that shows the wind across the United States in real time and animated.
This was put together as an art project, but they were quite diligent enough to make this as accurate as possible using information from the National Digital Forecast Database. You can zoom in and out on your area of the country (notice how active this is over Wyoming).

text: Hi All, I have the droid bioinic and in general I'm pleased with it but about a week ago wifi stopped working. It connects fine, and shows that it's connected, but won't let me connect to any pages. I have to turn off my wifi connections and use 4G/3G to access the internet. I'm using it on the same network I'm currently using my laptop, so the network isn't the issue. Moreover, I've used it on other networks too and the same problem exists on all of them. Any thoughts as to what's going on/how I can resolve it? thanks in advance for any help you can provide Ben

So far this year, Bristol County — which has earned the unfortunate distinction as being within the commonwealth's epicenter of mosquito-borne illness — has been spared from an onslaught of mosquitoes and the potentially deadly diseases they carry.
So far this year, Bristol County — which has earned the unfortunate distinction as being within the commonwealth's epicenter of mosquito-borne illness — has been spared from an onslaught of mosquitoes and the potentially deadly diseases they carry.
Although the buggers may be off to a slow start, we're hardly out of the woods. Health officials expect that this year, the threat may surface later in the season. For their own comfort and safety, wise homeowners ought to take steps now to make sure backyards do not become breeding grounds for mosquitoes.
Although many of us might like to be able to vaccinate ourselves and our children against mosquito-borne illnesses, it appears unlikely that pharmaceutical companies will develop such a shot. There's just not enough demand or financial incentive for these companies to spend the millions — even billions — of dollars needed to develop it.
In the absence of a vaccine, it behooves all of us to take precautions, such as avoiding the outdoors during peak mosquito hours like dawn and dusk, using mosquito repellent and wearing long pants and shirts with long sleeves. Heavy rain — like our area saw on the Fourth of July — could bring in the bumper crop of mosquitoes and the illnesses that we fear.
It's said that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Trying to prevent the disease is our best course of action. Residents can take some steps now, such as regularly emptying areas where standing water collects so that mosquitoes cannot breed, to avoid mosquito problems later in the season.
It is important to stay informed of aerial and ground spraying and take precautions to protect your families and pets. Officials ought to use all available means to keep the public informed of spraying activity.
While we must remain vigilant in protecting ourselves, our families and our communities against the threat of mosquito-borne illnesses, we also need to keep our fears in perspective. The incidences of EEE are a relative drop in the bucket. Last year, only 1 percent of the 6,092 mosquito samples collected in Massachusetts tested positive for EEE. Since 1938, 102 Massachusetts residents have contracted EEE.
However, 26 people have contracted EEE in Massachusetts over the past decade, and 16 of those cases have originated in Bristol, Norfolk or Plymouth counties. Although it's rare, contracting such illnesses can be devastating, debilitating and even deadly. Twelve of the 26 people infected with EEE over the past decade died.
Staying informed about the prevalence of mosquito-borne illnesses in your area over the course of the season can be your best weapon to avoid it. To that end, Bristol County Mosquito Control Project includes spraying updates on its Twitter page, @BCMCPMOSQ. Tips are available on its website, bristolcountymosquitocontrol.com, which also has information on how to make a spraying request. To request spraying on your property, call 508-823-5253, fax 508-828-1868 or email email@example.com.

Box Score in PDF Format
FSU vs. NC State Photo Gallery
Tallahassee, Fla. – No. 10 Florida State (6-3-1, 1-1-0 ACC) got a goal from four different Seminoles in a 4-1 victory over NC State (5-3-2, 0-2-0 ACC) on a beautiful Sunday afternoon in front of a crowd of 601 fans at the Seminole Soccer Complex. With the win, the Seminoles have now won seven in a row over NC State and are unbeaten in their last nine games (7-0-2). FSU has never loss to the Wolfpack at home posting an all-time record of 5-0-1.
For the first time this season, Florida State trailed in the first half at home when NC State's Lindsay Vera knocked in the game's first goal at the 1:27 mark. Jessica O'Rourke found Vera streaking down the right side of the pitch when Vera sent a cross from 16 yards out that beat a diving Erin McNulty to upper left corner for the goal. It was Vera's team leading sixth goal of the season.
"We started off slowly, but it was good to get our legs about us and start knocking the ball around and create some quality chances after NC State scored that goal so early in the game," said assistant coach Eric Bell. "It was good to get some goals by some different people today and Rachel Lim scored a fantastic goal before the end of the first half to give us the lead."
The Seminoles would finally crack the scoreboard in the 37th minute on a goal by Kirsten van de Ven, her fourth of the season. The play began as Rachel Lim found Katrin Schmidt on the left side of the field. Schmidt made a few moves to get to the middle before sending a cross to the far post where van de Ven one-timed a shot into the lower corner to tie the game at one. With that score, van de Ven had scored the last three Florida State goals.
"I thought I would play a hard ball to the far post which is always dangerous," explained Schmidt. "I kept it low to the ground and Vandy did a great job of getting to the ball and finishing it."
With less than six minutes remaining in the half, Florida State would grab the lead for good as Lim blasted a left-footer off the left post and into the goal for a 2-1 Seminole advantage. Van de Ven sent a long ball to Lim who stopped the pass with her right foot took a quick dribble to the inside and one timed a shot with her left foot that caromed off the left post and in the net.
"I was able to drag my player out wide," said Lim. "I tucked in behind the defender and Vandy saw me running in, she played the ball to me, I was able to control it and just hit it."
Although the Seminoles took a 2-1 lead into the locker room, it wasn't without some bad news as junior captain Sarah Wagenfuhr left the game with a right knee injury just over 10 minutes remaining in the first period. She would not return.
"We definitely were not sharp at the beginning of the game," said Schmidt. "Our focus was off and we realized that we had to step up our game after giving up that goal so early. I think we did a better job at the end of the first half and our play in the second half was much better."
Florida State built its lead to 3-1 when Mami Yamaguchi scored on a cross from 15 yards out that went just inside the left post. The goal was her team leading 14th of the season. The Tokyo, Japan native has now scored a point in all 10 games this season. Yamaguchi started the play as she played a little give and go with freshman midfielder Marissa Kazbour. Yamaguchi made a quick move to her right and was able to get a good shot off on goal as she fell to the ground. NC State goalkeeper Sydney Little made a diving attempt as the ball skimmed off her fingertips and into the net.
The Seminoles would solidify the victory with a goal off the foot of Amanda DaCosta, her second of the season, in the 85th minute. The freshman midfielder capitalized on a Wolfpack turnover, made a few nice moves and fired a shot into the lower right corner for the fourth Seminole goal of the afternoon.
"Getting two goals by the end of the half was really a confidence booster for us," added Lim. "I think after that we settled down and played much better in the second half as we were able to get two more goals."
Florida State outshot NC State 18-9 in the game, while maintaining the advantage in corner kicks at 6-4. Erin McNulty got her tenth start in goal for the Seminoles and played over 86 minutes before she was knocked out of the game after colliding with an NC State player on a Wolfpack corner. Sophomore transfer Kate Milstead played the remaining three minutes and seven seconds in goal for the Seminoles. McNulty finished the game with four saves.
A total of four yellow cards were issued Sunday afternoon including three by Florida State all in the final five minutes. FSU played a man down for the final three minutes and 24 seconds as van de Ven was issued back-to-back yellow cards and was ejected from the game.
The win for Florida State was its first come-from-behind victory of the season.
Florida State will hit the road next week as they face Virginia on Thursday, October 4 and Virginia Tech on Sunday, October 7.

I receive many similar e-mails from lots of Jewish moms asking me "where to begin" when it comes to Jewish Homeschooling. Now I must tell you that I am a rookie in this department since my oldest is almost 7 which means I have been doing this less then 6 years. But I will tell you what works for me and my family as every mom is different and every family is different.
From the age of 0-6, our kids have an amazing ability to truly experience the world. What does this mean? It means that instead of focusing on "teaching them things" we should focus on giving them the tools to learn how to figure things out for themselves. And how do we do this? By letting them experience the world through all five senses: sight, taste, smell, touch and sound.
These early years are so important for our kids to explore and discover. You don't need fancy toys. You need simple toys. Blocks, balls, crayons, musical instruments. The simpler the toys, the better.
If you go through this blog, you will find many activities involving the 5 senses. These are great for them to do at this age. Allow them to help you in the kitchen. Let them learn how to pour their own milk. Peel their own apple. The more you allow them to figure things our and do things by themselves, the higher their self esteem and the easier it will be for you!
Another very helpful thing to do is set up a daily routine and stick it up on the wall- it can look something like this:
Remember, this is for the early years, when most of your kids are under the age of 6. Playtime is free play. Time for them to just play. Its usually early in the morning so they want to do their own thing. Let them. If you have a playroom, great. If not, have a special section of the house with their toys, preferably not their bedrooms. make sure it is not cluttered and all the toys are visible to them and organized. They should be able to clean up after themselves when finished playing.
Activity time is when you present activities to them that you have prepared. Pouring beans from one container to another. Stickers, art project, sorting, stamping, cutting, gluing, painting etc. You can do this at the kitchen table or at a special school table if you have the room in your home. Let the kids see the difference between free play and doing an activity.
Don't worry about content. They are young and will ultimately learn the Parshah and Holidays. Right now it is all about giving them the skills to absorb lots of information when the time comes. Don't beat yourself up on drilling information into their heads. Its all about them learning how to learn.
In regard to davening with the little ones, using a CD always works well, doing motions, using musical instruments. Make it fun. You can do it before activity time or playtime.
They will learn their Alef Bet, ABC's, numbers and shapes when they are ready. And you will know when they are ready because they will begin to show an interest. Trust me, trust yourself and most of all, trust your little ones.
In regard to Jewish content, flood your home with Jewish books and Music. There is a lot out there and it should be a priority when purchasing anything for your kids.
When my kids start 1st grade they begin the Shluchim Online School which is an Online Yeshiva. So far, my son who is in 2nd grade absolutely loves it. He does this in the morning and we do his English studies in the afternoon. My 5 year old will start 1st grade next year.
Many of you are afraid that your kids wont be up to the same level as kids in school. Studies show that homeschooled kids are actually far more ahead of children in school. If this is something that worries you, find a contact at a Yeshiva that you respect and ask them to help you out in that department. Maybe get in touch with a teacher who teaches the age of your kids and ask if you can get an idea of where the students are up to every few months. Maybe she can even email or mail you the quizzes and tests she is giving to her students. There are lots of possibilities. Or if you have friends or family with kids the same age or older as your kids, ask them to save their kids worksheets and tests and send it to you. You can use this as a guide for yourself.
I really hope this post answered some of your questions and addressed some of your concerns! It is not an easy journey Homeschooling, but we figure things out along the way.
Wishing you all a wonderful week,

Later, she married and moved with her husband to the Alsatian town of Husseren-Wesserling. In 1930 she gave birth to a daughter. In 1933 the Arnolds moved to the nearby city of Mulhouse.
1933-39: We decided to become Jehovah's Witnesses. I was blessed with a loving husband and beautiful daughter. I kept house and taught my daughter music, painting, knitting, sewing, cooking and gardening. My husband and I studied the Bible and taught our daughter about Jehovah and the importance of obeying His commandments. Life in Mulhouse was peaceful and quiet under the French.
1940-44: After the Germans occupied our town in June 1940, we were no longer free to be Jehovah's Witnesses. The Gestapo arrested my husband in 1941 and took my daughter in 1943. I returned to my mother's farm but was arrested there in September 1943. I was sent to the Vorbruck-Schirmeck camp in Alsace and then to the Gaggenau branch camp in 1944. I was first assigned to sewing and mending, and then sent to be a housemaid for an SS family. Despite the pressure, nothing broke my faith.
Emma was liberated by the French army in 1945. She returned to France, where she was reunited with her husband and daughter.

Simple eye in invertebrates
A simple eye (sometimes called a pigment pit[1][2]) refers to a type of eye form or optical arrangement that contains a single lens. A "simple eye" is so called in distinction from a multi-lensed "compound eye", and is not necessarily at all simple in the usual sense of the word. The eyes of humans and large animals, and camera lenses are classed as "simple" because in both cases a single lens collects and focuses light onto the retina or film. Many insects have compound eyes consisting of multiple lenses (up to tens of thousands), each focusing light onto a small number of retinula cells.
The structure of an animal's eye is determined by the environment in which it lives, and the behavioural tasks it must fulfill to survive. Arthropods differ widely in the habitats in which they live, as well as their visual requirements for finding food or conspecifics, and avoiding predators. Consequently, an enormous variety of eye designs are found in arthropods: they possess a wide variety of novel solutions to overcome visual problems or limitations.
Ocelli or eye spots
Some jellyfish, sea stars, and flatworms bear the simplest eyes, pigment spot ocelli, which have pigment distributed randomly and which have no additional structures such as a cornea and lens. The apparent eye color in these animals is therefore red or black.[3] However, other cnidaria have more complex eyes, including those of Cubomedusae which have distinct retina, lens, and cornea.[4]
Many snails and slugs (gastropod mollusks) also have ocelli, either at the tips or at the bases of the tentacles. However, some other gastropods, such as the Strombidae, have much more sophisticated eyes. Giant clams (Tridacna) have ocelli that allow light to penetrate their mantles.[5]
Simple eyes in arthropods
Spider eyes
Spiders do not have compound eyes, but instead have several pairs of simple eyes with each pair adapted for a specific task or tasks. The principal and secondary eyes in spiders are arranged in four or more pairs. Only the principal eyes have moveable retinas. The secondary eyes have a reflector at the back of the eyes. The light-sensitive part of the receptor cells is next to this, so they get direct and reflected light. In hunting or jumping spiders, for example, a forward-facing pair possesses the best resolution (and even telescopic components) to see the (often small) prey at a large distance. Night-hunting spiders' eyes are very sensitive in low light levels with a large aperture, f/0.58.[6]
Dorsal ocelli
The term "ocellus" (plural ocelli) is derived from the Latin oculus (eye), and literally means "little eye". Two distinct ocellus types exist:[7] dorsal ocelli (or simply "ocelli"), found in most insects, and lateral ocelli (or stemmata), which are found in the larvae of some insect orders. They are structurally and functionally very different. Simple eyes of other animals, e.g. cnidarians, may also be referred to as ocelli, but again the structure and anatomy of these eyes is quite distinct from those of the dorsal ocelli of insects.
Dorsal ocelli are light-sensitive organs found on the dorsal (top-most) surface or frontal surface of the head of many insects, e.g. Hymenoptera (bees, ants, wasps, sawflies), Diptera (flies), Odonata (dragonflies, damselflies) and Orthoptera (grasshoppers, locusts). The ocelli coexist with the compound eyes, thus most insects possess two anatomically separate and functionally different visual pathways.
The number, forms, and functions of the dorsal ocelli vary markedly throughout insect orders. They tend to be larger and more strongly expressed in flying insects (particularly bees, wasps, dragonflies and locusts), where they are typically found as a triplet. Two lateral ocelli are directed to the left and right of the head, respectively, while a central (median) ocellus is directed frontally. In some terrestrial insects (e.g. some ants and cockroaches), only two lateral ocelli are present: the median ocellus is absent. The unfortunately labelled "lateral ocelli" here refers to the sideways-facing position of the ocelli, which are of the dorsal type. They should not be confused with the lateral ocelli of some insect larvae (see stemmata).
A dorsal ocellus consists of a lens element (cornea) and a layer of photoreceptors (rod cells). The ocellar lens may be strongly curved (e.g. bees, locusts, dragonflies) or flat (e.g. cockroaches). The photoreceptor layer may (e.g. locusts) or may not (e.g. blowflies, dragonflies) be separated from the lens by a clear zone (vitreous humour). The number of photoreceptors also varies widely, but may number in the hundreds or thousands for well-developed ocelli.
Two somewhat unusual features of the ocelli are particularly notable and generally well conserved between insect orders.
- The refractive power of the lens is not typically sufficient to form an image on the photoreceptor layer.
- Dorsal ocelli ubiquitously have massive convergence ratios from first-order (photoreceptor) to second-order neurons.
These two factors have led to the conclusion that the dorsal ocelli are incapable of perceiving form, and are thus solely suitable for light-metering functions. Given the large aperture and low f-number of the lens, as well as high convergence ratios and synaptic gains, the ocelli are generally considered to be far more sensitive to light than the compound eyes. Additionally, given the relatively simple neural arrangement of the eye (small number of synapses between detector and effector), as well as the extremely large diameter of some ocellar interneurons (often the largest diameter neurons in the animal's nervous system), the ocelli are typically considered to be "faster" than the compound eyes.[8]
One common theory of ocellar function in flying insects holds that they are used to assist in maintaining flight stability. Given their underfocused nature, wide fields of view, and high light-collecting ability, the ocelli are superbly adapted for measuring changes in the perceived brightness of the external world as an insect rolls or pitches around its body axis during flight. Corrective flight responses to light have been demonstrated in locusts[9] and dragonflies[10] in tethered flight. Other theories of ocellar function have ranged from roles as light adaptors or global excitatory organs, to polarization sensors and circadian entrainers.
Recent studies have shown the ocelli of some insects (most notably the dragonfly, but also some wasps) are capable of form vision, as the ocellar lens forms an image within, or close to, the photoreceptor layer.[11][12] In dragonflies it has been demonstrated that the receptive fields of both the photoreceptors[13] and the second-order neurons[14] can be quite restricted. Further research has demonstrated these eyes not only resolve spatial details of the world, but also perceive motion.[15] Second-order neurons in the dragonfly median ocellus respond more strongly to upwards-moving bars and gratings than to downwards-moving bars and gratings, but this effect is only present when ultraviolet light is used in the stimulus; when ultraviolet light is absent, no directional response is observed. Dragonfly ocelli are especially highly developed and specialised visual organs, which may support the exceptional acrobatic abilities of these animals.
Research on the ocelli is of high interest to designers of small unmanned aerial vehicles. Designers of these craft face many of the same challenges that insects face in maintaining stability in a three-dimensional world. Engineers are increasingly taking inspiration from insects to overcome these challenges.[16]
Stemmata (singular stemma, also referred to as lateral ocelli) are the only eyes of the holometabolous larvae and certain adults of several orders of insects (fleas, springtails, and Thysanura. Strepsiptera have clusters of simple eyes). Behind each lens lies a single cluster of photoreceptor cells, termed a retinula. The lens is biconvex, and the body contains a vitreous or crystalline core. They may represent simplified compound eyes (stemmata are simple eyes), reflected by their lateral position on the head. They are possessed by myriapods and some insect larvae.[7]
Genetic controls
A number of genetic pathways are responsible for the occurrence and positioning of the ocelli. The gene orthodenticle is allelic to ocelliless, a mutation that stops ocelli from being produced.[17] In Drosophila, the rhodopsin Rh2 is only expressed in simple eyes.[18]
While (in Drosophila at least) the genes eyeless and dachshund are both expressed in the compound eye but not the simple eye, no reported 'developmental' genes are uniquely expressed in the simple eye.[19]
Epidermal growth factor receptor (Egfr) promotes the expression of orthodenticle [and possibly eyes absent (Eya)] and as such is essential for simple eye formation.[19]

The Phils rally to score four runs in the last two innings to take one from the Cubs, 4-2.
The Phils score four late innings runs to defeat the Cubs, 4-2.
The Cubs took a quick 2-0 lead in the first as, with a runner on second and with nobody out, Stalin Castro hits a two-run home run, his third home run of the season, knocking in Reed Johnson, who had started off the Cubs' half of the first with a lead-off double. After that, Cliff Lee would spend the next six innings dodging several bullets as he gave up six more hits, all but one of them hard hit, as he struck out six batters, while keeping the Cubs from scoring any more runs, while Cubs' starter Matt Garza pitched seven innings, as he kept the Phils' offense off-balanced all night, giving up three hits and walked three batters, while striking out five Phils. The Phils were finally able to get onto the scoreboard in the eighth as, with two men on, and with nobody out, Chase Utley hits a two-run double, scoring Jimmy Rollins, who had started the inning off with a single, which led to Garza being taken out of the game, and being replaced by Sean Marshall, then stopping at second base as Michael Martinez greeted Marshall with a single, and Martinez, who has just singled, and just got home before the throw to the plate, tying the game up at two-all. The Phils then took the lead in the ninth as, with two men on, and with two men out, Martinez hits a two-run double, scoring pinch hitter Ben Francisco, who had earlier singled, then reached second base on an infield single by Rollins on a sharp grounder to third baseman Aramis Ramriez that bounced off his glove and went to shortstop Castro, and Rollins, who had just hit an infield single, giving the Phils a 4-2 lead, before he is thrown out trying to go to third on the throw home, 9-2-6-5, for the inning's final out. That would be the final score as Antonio Bastardo collected his seventh save of the year as he pitched a 1-2-3 inning, striking out the side.
Cliff Lee received a no-decision as he pitched six innings, giving up two runs on eight hits, as he struck out six. Michael Stutes (4-1, 3.24) got the win as he went two innings, giving up two hits while striking out one. Antonio Bastardo picked up his seventh save of the season as he pitched a 1-2-3 inning, striking out the side. Matt Garza also received a no-decision as he went seven innings plus a batter, giving up a run on four hits and three walks, while he struck out five. Sean Marshall committed his third blown save of the season, before taking the lost (5-4, 3.18), as he pitched two innings, giving up three runs on five hits, while he struck out three.
The Phils had nine hits in the game, with Jimmy Rollins (Singles), Michael Martinez (Single, Double, 2 RBIs) and Dom Brown (Single, Double) led the team with two hits each. Chase Utley (Double, 2 RBIs), Carlos Ruiz (Single) and pinch hitter Ben Francisco (Single), had the other three Phils' hits.
The Phils (60-36, 1st East) will conclude their series with the Cubs (39-59, 5th Central) with an afternoon game at Wrigley Field, which is about to start.

BALTIMORE (AP) — Chris Davis singled home the tiebreaking run with two outs in the 13th inning, giving the Baltimore Orioles an exhausting 5-4 victory over the Boston Red Sox in the opener of a four-game series between AL East contenders.
Danny Valencia homered for the Orioles, who moved into second place and within 2½ games of Boston. Baltimore won despite leaving 16 on base and going 4 for 14 with runners in scoring position.
With two outs in the 13th, Nick Markakis drew a walk from Alex Wilson (1-1). Adam Jones singled and Davis followed with an opposite-field pop that landed in front of left fielder Daniel Nava.
T.J. McFarland (1-0) pitched the 13th to earn his first major league win. The Orioles used seven pitchers, none of whom issued a walk.

What a joke our community is turning out to be. We have three members of the Town Council who are dissatisfied with the way the new council is working here in Old Orchard Beach, so they are crying "recall" and getting a selective few to do the dirty work. And now other people are trying to recall these three councilors.
The tables were turned from a year or so ago, when Michael Coleman, Robin Dayton and Robert Quinn were making all the decisions before they even sat down at a council meeting.
We have lost numerous dedicated employees through termination by this town manager for no just cause, which has exposed the town to several lawsuits. When does it end?
We have lost a dedicated General Assistance person who served our community with dignity and was let go for no just cause. We lost our public works director and the finance director. What's next?
For years I have been stating that we should hire within our own community so that the person in control has an idea of what this community is all about.
Two names come to mind for an interim town manager: Mr. George Kerr and Mr. Jerome Plante, who are both honorable, respected and loved members of our town who have served us well in the past.
I have a piece of advice for the interim town manager who this council will have to choose.
It's time to take care of our own, employ our own as we have done in the past and make sure they live within Old Orchard Beach and have knowledge of Old Orchard Beach so that they may serve us well.
Forget the recalls. We don't need them. Councils change — get over it and move on.

Sister Mahany has suggested that I step forward and offer a scholarship. I have already stepped forward and established an ongoing scholarship at Saint Joseph's College, founded by the Sisters of Mercy.
I have also established a specialized school in Haiti to teach the poorest children English and academic courses online, with no cost to them.
Both Sister Mahany and Mary Lee King stress the importance of the teaching of religion. There is absolutely no correlation between the teaching of religion and morality. Morality cannot be taught. The troubling sexual scandal by priests in the Catholic Church is evidence of that.
Mary Lee King stresses the superiority of Jesuit schools and cites "cura personalis" or "the care of the entire person" as a guiding principle of a Jesuit education. It cannot be said that the public schools do not teach the entire person.
Fifty to 75 years ago, the Jesuits had a reputation for being excellent teachers. The ranks of the Jesuits have been decimated with the falling-off of vocations.
Currently Jesuit high schools and colleges, including Cheverus, have very few Jesuits in the classroom. They have been replaced by laypersons. To suggest that Cheverus offers a Jesuit education today is misleading.
Mary Lee King has difficulty accepting the word "elite." The term "elite" is defined as: "A group enjoying superior intellectual, social or economic status." This definition describes both Cheverus and McAuley. They are selective and noninclusive. They select the intellectually able and those who can pay the five-digit tuition fee. They exclude many who do not meet these standards.
Concerning choice: I have no problem with parents who have the financial resources sending their gifted children to McAuley or Cheverus, but it cannot be said that this practice is Christian or democratic.

As the times change, so do Obama's views on deficit
In the 2008 campaign, then-Sen. Barack Obama said that the $4 trillion debt that occurred under President Bush was irresponsible and unpatriotic.
President Obama said this week during an interview that the debt is not a pressing issue.
He has added almost $5 trillion in four years. I guess this is no longer an irresponsible or unpatriotic problem.
How do you say "hypocrite"? He accepts no responsibility for anything.

Gov. LePage meets criteria for safely carrying a gun
Recently, the Press Herald printed a picture of Gov. LePage holding up his license to carry a concealed gun ("Maine Voices: Releasing concealed-carry data violates permit holders' rights," Feb. 27).
When I first saw the picture, it made me nervous.
Then I realized that the governor has all the qualities one would want to see in someone who may be carrying a gun.
He is calm under pressure, slow to anger, able to distinguish a real emergency from an imagined one, never threatening and circumspect. I felt much better after thinking about the matter.

Bill usurps residents' right to decide on local concerns
Do our "representatives" in Augusta really think they know more about what the people want/need than the people themselves?
Case in point: Biddeford residents passed an ordinance requiring individuals to live in their fine city if they are employed by the city (school superintendent), and then quashed a proposed change to the charter. It is important to the citizens that those individuals have an investment and belief in the school system.
The crux of the situation is that the people of Biddeford spoke. Are our legislators in Augusta trying to take away their rights?
I am not a Biddeford resident, but if my vote on a town or city issue were dismissed by the state Legislature, I would be incensed ("Maine panel backs school superintendents residency bill," Feb. 21). It is difficult enough to get an ordinance passed by citizens of a town or city, and when the people speak they should be heard.

Bernard Hill
(??? how did we overlook that?)
m (Unprotected "Bernard Hill": Removed protection)
Revision as of 22:00, 11 December 2010
|Bernard Hill
|December 17, 1944
|Théoden in:
|The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy
British actor Bernard Hill (born 1944) played Théoden in The Lord of the Rings: The Motion Picture Trilogy.
Hill was born in Manchester, where he attended the Manchester Polytechnic School of Drama. He made his screen debut in 1973, and gained some fame as unemployed Scouser Yosser Hughes in The Black Stuff and its sequel, Boys from the Black Stuff. Before that, he had made minor appearances in BBC series, including I, Claudius (which boasts many great actors, including Brian Blessed, Christopher Guard, Norman Shelley, John Hurt, John Rhys-Davies and Derek Jacobi in the title role).
A steady carreer with few peaks followed. He had a minor role in Gandhi and a remarkable bigger one as Captain Smith in Titanic in 1997.
Hill has appeared in the only two movies that made US$1 billion worldwide: Titanic and The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. The irony that he died in both led to some jokes about having to kill Bernard Hill in order to clear a billion.
His birthday coincides with the premiere of The Return of the King.
- 2003: The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King - Théoden
- 2002: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - Théoden
- "The ensemble qualities of this award go way beyond the cast I think. I think everyone here realizes that we sit atop a kind of pyramid of talent, we actors. Because we can't do what we do without the whole structure beneath us, and I think we're all very aware of that, and very appreciative of the producers, the writers, the directors, and the make-up people, and the people who arrange the trailers in a circle and keep them warm for us in the morning, and make sure that we've got coffee and tea and things that keep us going during the day, and all that kind of stuff."
- ― Bernard Hill, acceptance speech for the SAG award for ensemble cast.

Raw broccoli is excellent! The florets are great with a dip (greek yogurt with soy sauce, garlic, and olive oil is my fave) or in a salad; shred the stems in a salad shooter and they're lovely added to a salad or in cole slaw. When cooked I prefer florets lightly steamed then hit with butter, salt, and pepper -- no objection to cheese, just not my favorite.

gee, fond memories of good ole broccoli. A strange one from my jr hi home ec sewing class. I'd be going a mile a minute with the power Singer sewing machine only to discover at the end of seam that the bobbin thread once again went haywire and formed a puffy set of loose loops in a big clump. My teacher said "Oh, you've made broccoli again" turing over my project to inspect it. Funny thing is that teacher never explained or showed me why the seams would broccoli. I still don't know why. But I still like steamed (not seamed) broccoli with a bit of real buddah and a drift of salt. Buddah buds do not make it.

Product Details
High Performance Street Brake Pads by Hawk®. These are replacement brake pads designed for an aggressive level of street driving with more repetitive, heavy braking. While these pads are made from Ferro-Carbon that was developed for racetrack applications, their formulation has been blended to provide a more progressive feel for the street. They provide 20 to 40% more braking power without causing higher wear on rotors the way racetrack formulated pads do. Designed to the precise tolerances of factory parts for proper fit and operation, these pads are available in front and rear sets and are backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
- Ferro-Carbon pad construction is blended with a higher friction output designed for aggressive street driving
- Braking power is increased by 20% to 40% over original equipment regardless of extreme cold or warm temperatures
- Pads maintain a very progressive brake feel for comfortable use during normal driving
- Brake pad material produces a low amount of dust and does not cause excessive rotor wear the way racetrack brake pads can
- Pads and clips are designed in the precise size and shape of factory OEM parts for proper fit and operation
- Pre-chamfered edges ensure more effective braking against worn brake rotors
- Slotted center groove provides more effective removal of water, dust, and gasses that build up normally during the braking process
- Limited lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects (not wear)
- Sold as a set for two wheels
High Performance Street Brake Pads are designed to offer 20-40% more grip for performance vehicles that see aggressive street driving while maintaining gradual and progressive application that makes them easy to live with under normal conditions. They come designed for grip the minute you put them on your vehicle with a heat-scorched top layer to help the pads mate initially to new or worn brake rotor surfaces. Once the street pads have fully broken in, the grip they are known for is available at all times whether the brakes are cold on an icy morning or hot on a Friday night.
The High Performance Street Brake Pads are made not from ceramic materials, but a Ferro-Carbon compound consisting of iron, carbon, and titanium that yields a higher level of friction naturally. They resist heat buildup that plagues OEM pads under heavy use, so there will be no need to compensate for reduced effectiveness after brake fluid gets hot enough to boil in the lines. While the many advantages of aggressive street brake pads typically come at a higher cost, we offer you the superior all-around performance of these parts with value-priced brake parts from Hawk.
Founded in 1990, Hawk® is part of the Carlisle Brake and Friction (CBF) group of companies based in Ohio that produces traditional and hydraulic brake parts, clutch equipment, and transmission components as OEM equipment for a wide range of agricultural, aviation, military, motorcycle, and construction equipment manufacturers. CBF products are used by Caterpillar, John Deere, Eaton, Wichita Clutch, DANA, Allison, Harley Davidson, Brembo, ZF Sachs, Clark Hurth, and many more. Hawk Performance draws on that incredible pool of engineering talent to create some of the most respected performance brake pads and rotors for the automotive industry, and has recently been named the official brake product of Pirelli World Challenge Championship, SCCA, and SCVRA racing organizations. Hawk brake components have been instrumental in racing victories with the Nissan Skyline GT-R team, Baja races, and a variety of motorsports events. When you want the best brake components for high performance driving or towing needs that meet or exceed OEM specification without OEM markup, Hawk Performance has you covered.

PHOENIX — Here's the latest must-have component of a running program — a scale. While we've been telling our members, clients and ourselves to drink lots of water before, during and after exercise, it seems that some of us may have followed the message too much. Drinking too much water while exercising intensely for long periods of time is thought to be a cause of hyponatremia, or abnormally low sodium levels. Hyponatremia can be fatal.
In fact, a recent New England Journal of Medicine study found that many runners in the 2002 Boston Marathon drank excessive amounts of water during the 26.2-mile race. Of the 488 runners studied, 62 of them had low blood sodium levels, and three of them had levels so low that they were in danger of dying.
Tom Clark, assistant program director of the Village Racquet and Health Club in Phoenix, talks to his running club about when it's appropriate to drink and when to lay off the agua. He admits that drinking loads of cool water can be enticing in the 100-degree-plus heat of June. To avoid that temptation, his 30 or so runners begin training for their four- to six-mile runs as early as 4:30 a.m. to avoid the heat.
"For hydration I put out coolers along our route filled with both water and with a sports drink," he said. "I recommend to my runners that they get a drink at every available drinking station, as there are several along the route. However, they are told to only drink a minimal amount of about 4 oz. to 6 oz. at each station. That way, they are getting enough fluids without overdoing it."
Here's how hyponatremia happens: during intense exercise a person's kidneys can't excrete excess water that's coming in. As a person keeps drinking, the extra water moves into the cells. The brain cells, enlarged from the excessive amount of water, press against the skull and can push against the brain stem, which controls vital functions such as breathing.
According to the study, hyponatremia tends to be more common in slower runners who take more than four hours to finish the marathon — giving them plenty of time to chug water. Slower runners drank an average of three liters of water, causing them to actually gain weight. As more and more "average" people attempt marathons and other demanding athletic events, researchers are seeing an increase in this life-threatening condition.
Clark, a U.S. Track and Field certified coach, makes sure his runners are aware of how much fluid they are taking in. And here's where the scale comes in handy: he also heeds experts' advice to weigh runners before and after races.
"Although this phenomena is fairly rare, it is still something worth being mindful of," he said. "Since a runner can lose as much as six pounds of sweat per hour by running in this Arizona heat, I have them weigh themselves occasionally before and after the runs, just to make sure that they aren't losing too much water weight. This also helps to ensure that they are taking in the correct amount of replacement fluids."

Cacti blossoms and Sonoran Scenes
in Tom Stanley photo Exhibit
cacti offer such a rich study in contrasts
armored with bristling spines
and glochids most of the year, then by spring they invite everyone from honeybees
to artists with extravagant, colorful flowers. Our signature echinocereus,
the Boyce Thompson Hedgehog cactus, blooms a rich magenta in April and was
among the species celebrated via beautiful photography shown in our gallery
during April, 2005, by Phoenix resident Thomas Stanley.
A Minnesota transplant who has called Scottsdale home for the past two decades, Stanley notes, "My family moved to California in the '40s. We lived in the Bay Area, and I graduated from Armstrong's College in Berkeley with a BA in finance then went on to a career in insurance and business. During school I often visited art galleries between classes, always fascinated by the different art displays. I bought my first painting as a college sophomore; for a while that painting and a bed were all I had in my apartment!"
"I yearned to be an artist, but I came from a background of limited means and had been schooled for a practical career. I never could muster up the mettle to actively pursue art, so I stayed an insurance man -- just about as far away from art as you can go!
"But I loved the southwest the history, the blue sky, and the striking blossoms that would explode on the primitive landscape after a few days of rain showers. Possibly my biggest incentive was "Arizona Highways" magazine I promised myself one day I would take a picture of the quality I admired from Arizona Highways." Stanley began to dedicate more time to his photography around 1990, getting his best prints framed. The owner of the Scottsdale frame shop liked what he saw, inviting Stanley to sell framed prints, greeting cards and postcards in the family gift store. Soon orders began to arrive from gift shops at various Arizona State Parks, including the Boyce Thompson Arboretum.
"Boyce Thompson has always been a special place to me; just 60 minutes from Phoenix, and such a serene place, one you can enjoy alone or with special friends. I visit often, and this will be my first formal gallery show - so I am delighted that it is hosted by the Arboretum!" Spend some time in our gallery this month, take a moment to ponder the many paths that bring people to an awareness of their artistic potential. Stanley offers these tips from his experience for getting better photos:
"Think about your picture: the light and the composition until it becomes real in your mind. Once your photograph has been developed, figure out why it didn't come out like you had imagined. Start simple, the less automated the better. I believe technical products that are so widely available now can actually detract from photography as art. Take many shots of same image and apply crop mats; that can be like taking more pictures. And when you're starting out avoid manipulating pictures. Frame simple, and matte simple. Also: find a good camera shop and don't be afraid to discuss your pictures." To correspond with the artist about his work or inquire about Tom's exhibit here, email firstname.lastname@example.com or else write to PO Box 60204, Phoenix, AZ, 85082-0204. The Arboretum is an Arizona State Park and daily admission must be paid to enter the visitor center and gallery, even just to view our monthly gallery exhibit. Arboretum non-members pay daily admission of $7.50 for adults and $3 for ages 5-12. Our May gallery show will feature photography by Globe resident Jeanette Bronson; if you'd care to review other recent gallery exhibits check out these shows from...

Eric Church, Luke Bryan + More to Perform During ACM Weekend at Fremont Street
The Academy of Country Music just unveiled the lineup for this year's ACM Weekend on Fremont Street Experience, which will take place the Friday and Saturday leading up to the ACM Awards (March 30 and 31) in Las Vegas. The packed-out lineup for the event will feature several ACM nominees, as well as a handful of guests.
Eric Church and Luke Bryan, who are both up for this year's New Artist of the Year award, will both take part in the weekend of music, which is free to the public. Hosting Fremont Street this year will be three-time ACM On-Air Personality of the Year award winner Blair Garner. Other country acts who will be taking the stage include Love and Theft, Hunter Hayes, Brantley Gilbert, Scotty McCreery, Jana Kramer, Craig Campbell, Eli Young Band and Laura Bell Bundy.
In order to handle the crowds that will be coming out for this star-studded event, the Academy will be blocking off five city blocks in Vegas in order to provide a designated entertainment zone. But there's no reason to fear the crowds. Even if you can't inch up to the stage to rub elbows with your favorite talent, the experience will feature the world's largest video screen, measuring in at 1,500 feet long — so you shouldn't have any trouble getting a glimpse of the show.
Last year's Fremont Street concert series included performances from country talent like Chris Young, Sara Evans and Lee Brice. The ACM Weekend at Fremont Street is just one part of the festivities leading up to the red carpet event, a week better known as 'the week Vegas goes country.' The Fremont Street Experience attracts more than 18 million people annually, so it's not an event you'll want to miss!
