I had a few of these flies on cultivated native aster right after the late October heat wave but before the November cold snap. They are lovely bee/wasp mimics. I wonder about the striped thorax--I do not recall any hymenoptera with that pattern, but maybe it is just a bold, scary look. The genus name Helophilus appears to be from Greek roots helo- (marsh) + philus. The larvae are aquatic, feeding on decaying vegetation, according to references.
Helophilus fasciatus (female)
The BugGuide page has a discussion of how to tell the sexes apart--this is clearly a female with the dark stripe on the forehead running from eyes to antennae. HFDF!
“Voyager 2 took this picture of Ganymede as the spacecraft was nearing its encounter with the ice giant. It was taken from a range of 312,000 kilometers (195,000 miles), and it shows features down to about 5 to 6 kilometers across. Clear examples of several of the different types of terrains common on Ganymede's surface are visible (right). The boundary of the largest region of dark ancient terrain on Ganymede can be seen to the east (right), revealing some of the light linear features which may be all that remains of a large ancient impact structure similar to the large ring structure on Callisto. The broad light regions running through the image are the typical grooved structures seen within most of the light regions on Ganymede. To the lower left is another example of what might be evidence of large scale lateral motion in Ganymede's crust. The band of grooved terrain (about 100 kilometers wide) in this region appears to be offset by 50 kilometers or more on the left hand edge by a linear feature perpendicular to it. A feature similar to this one was previously discovered by Voyager 1. These are the first clear examples of strike-slip style faulting on any planet other than Earth. Many examples of craters of all ages can be seen in this image, ranging from fresh, bright ray craters to large, subdued circular markings thought to be the "scars" of large ancient impacts that have been flattened by glacier-like flows.”

Notiophilus biguttatus (Coleoptera, Carabidae) ground beetle. Length: 5,5 mm. Surprisingly, this genus has not named after the enormous eyes. Translation of Notiophilus: notio- (νοτία) = damp, moisture (from Greek); philus = beloved (from Latin). This means they like wet medium, indeed, they can be found in the humid leaf litter.

'Due to popular demand, Booth - Clibborn Editions and Other Criteria are reprinting a reduced edition of Damien Hirst's extraordinary book project first published in 1997.
This is a dynamic and provocative collection of Damien Hirst's ideas and obsessions, a powerful combination of text and visuals. Each piece is set against a visual narrative of drawings, words, photography, typography, pop - ups and other special effects.
An essay by novelist Gordon Burn looks at Hirst's work and the breadth of its impact.
Designed by Jonathan Barnbrook, this is a landmark publication that has redefined the fine art monograph.'

The 3-day 20th annual Festival of Plants and Flowers at SFX School, Siolim, Goa, India, was inaugurated by Mr Maendra Joslyn Alvares of "BIG Foot", on 13 August.
The theme this year is " Medicine from medicinal plants in Goa". Students from different schools presented projects on the medicinal uses of Goan plants along with a potted specimen of the plant. There were also on display of ornamental plants.
The Food & Drug Administration, Legal Metrology [Weights & Measures] of Goa and the PWD also participated besides several prominent Goa nurseries, selling ornamental plants , organic garden inputs including seeds, manures and insect repellents, panchagavya, EM, etc and books.
Begun by the SFX School's PTA and a few public spirited neighbours led by the indomitable cartoonist, Alexyz Fernandes, and guided by experienced botanist Miguel Braganza, this green event is now managed by the Eco Club with the whole hearted support of the Fransalians [MSFS] and their eco-Advisors Seby Diogo Pinto [who leads from the 'Forefront'] and Robert D' Mello. The Botanical Society of Goa, the Directorate of Agriculture's Zonal Agriculture Office-Mapusa and Vikas Nursery have always been a part of this festival since 1992.
The veteran stalls of the Festival - Apurbai's Philu and Francis Borges from Assagao, Garden Glory's Alex and Lynette, Vikas Nursery from Dhargalim, Ashok Dande, GOACAN, Other India Bookstore, and subsequent additions like Green Essentials - added their own charm and importance.

Theater a/h Spui Main Hall
In Lanx, Mika Vainio plays live for a solo dance performance by Cindy van Acker, one of the more interesting choreographer/performers in her field. A tension is immediately set up between dancer, audience and sound in the piece as Vainio’s visceral electronics seem to drive van Acker's precise physical movement studies. The focus is at once intensely engrossing and encompassing.
Swiss-based Cindy Van Acker has long been involved in deep, radical studies of movement in combination with leading figures in experimental electronic music playing live on stage as she perform solos; Frédérique Franke, Philip May, Denis Rollet, Jennifer Bonn, and, since 2007’s collaboration on ‘Kernal’, Mika Vainio. Vainio is renowned as one half of electronic music duo Pan Sonic, whose signature analogue electronics are unmistakeable in their harsh beauty, and as a producer in his own right. He also works under the monikers Ø, Philus and others, has solo releases on labels including the UK’s Touch, Finland’s Sähkö and Germany’s Raster-Noton.
Lanx is “a continuous current circulates between the body and the geometrical motifs that encircle it. Balancing on the lines, unfolding its sides, its ridges, its angles, playing with perspectives that continually renew themselves, the body sounds out its capacity to inscribe forms in a predetermined space. Transforming itself as if it were under the effect of an optical illusion, the décor starts to vibrate, to transform itself. This continuum with variable dimensions draws a relative geometry, on the level of sensations.”

Crawford suggests the moneyer was L. Furius Philus, praetor in 171 BC. If Lucius was moneyer at the age of exactly 29 as was usual, and a praetor has to be at least 39 years old, then that helps date the series to the 180s.

After we ate dinner we saw this guy sitting outside the train station selling books. His penname is Phil U and he writes poetry. He has three published books and was on tour of Japan selling them.
He offered to write us each a poem if we gave him a topic or theme. Eliot's chosen topic was "A Man's Life." Mine was "Homesickness." He wrote us each a very nice poem and mine even helped me be a little less homesick!
He was very happy to talk to us and gave us one of his business cards. He liked telling us about his favorite American band and even spoke a fair amount of English, so I wasn't completely lost. He took a picture of us on his cell phone and when we got home and checked his website, there we were!
He described us as a "lovely couple". He was fun to talk to and we ended up buying one of his books.
The inscription states 'Here lies Philus, son of Cassavus & citizen of the Sequani, after a life of 45 years."
The tombstone of Philus, son of Cassavus, a Sequanian who died aged 45. The Sequani dwelt in the upper Saône Valley, near Besançon in France. It was found at Watermoor, Cirencester, to the south of Corinium.
