This morning, it's back to posting 10 more photos of fungi from our visit to Rod Handfield's acreage. I think these may be the last few odds and ends that I will be adding from this trip. Sorry about the lack of IDs for so many of the fungi, but at least I have made a photo record of many of the species seen.
On that day, 8 September 2019, we had such a wonderful four and a half hours, searching for different kinds of fungi in the amazing forest on Rod Handfield's land, SW of Calgary. I think this was our tenth visit - the first one I went on, being on 25 June 2009 - each one resulting in various different species. It was so overwhelming this day! You didn't know which direction to face and which mushroom to photograph first. They were everywhere! Such a contrast to our visit on 6 August 2017, when basically there were no mushrooms (other than maybe three), because everywhere had been so very dry.
A day like this can be so exhausting, not just from the walking, but also because of all the excitement. That night, I slept well. The quality of many of my photos is not the best, as the day was very overcast - the last thing one wants when trying to take photos deep in the forest. After leaving Rod's, it did rain. I had driven myself there instead of carpooling, so that I could drive some of the backroads in the area after we had finished. The forecast was for sun and cloud - and I had foolishly believed it. The rain put an end to my plans and I headed for home. I'm so glad I had checked a special little spot near Rod's first thing in the morning, when I got there a bit too early. A few years ago, there was a beautiful display of Fly Agaric / Amanita muscaria mushrooms growing there, but not since then. To my absolute delight, there were maybe half a dozen, in different stages of development. Surprisingly, we didn't come across a single one in Rod's forest this year.
As always, thank you so much, Rod, for so generously allowing us to explore your property. This has been my favourite place to visit for quite a number of years now. We greatly appreciate your kindness - you are always so welcoming, and we learn so much and discover so many beautiful things. Thank you, Karel, for leading the group and helping with some of the identifications. For the rest, "fungus" or "mushroom"will have to be sufficient. As usual, any IDs given are always tentative, not 100% confirmed. Rule is, if you are not an expert in mycology, do not pick wild mushrooms to eat!

Spectating at Church Fields, home to Whiston Parish Church Cricket Club. Captured during a fourth-versus-third clash with Houghton Main in the Championship Division of the South Yorkshire League. Whiston won by 82 runs to leapfrog their Barnsley-based visitors, who dropped to sixth in the top tier's table.
Electing to bat, Whiston set off at a furious pace. They were 154-2 at drinks and 201 when, in the 34th over, their third wicket fell. Gareth Davis (74), Danny Kemp (65) and James Martin (25) led the assault. Unaccountably, and to the obvious frustration of their fans, Whiston then collapsed, losing their last seven wickets for the addition of just 69 runs, failing to complete their allocation of overs. Spinner Imran Khan (4-82) and pacer James Exley (3-38) spearheaded the mopping up exercise. Slipshod wicketkeeper Simon Ward, later out for a duck to complete an unhappy afternoon, played a big part in 36 extras swelling Whiston's total.
Spinner Ali Manzoor (5-55) and pacer Sam Taylor (4-25) finished the job the Whiston upper order had started. Nobody in the Houghton Main line-up hung around long enough to make a telling score. Openers Alex Porter (43) and Ian Simon (23) put on 58 for the first wicket. Thereafter, only Khan (24), who figured with Jake Hardcastle (12) in an entertaining seventh-wicket stand worth 37, raised any hope of an away win.
Match statistics:
Whiston Parish Church versus Houghton Main

Admission: free. Programme: none. Attendance: 102. Whiston Parish Church won the toss and elected to bat. Whiston Parish Church 270 off 48.1 overs (Gareth Davis 74, Danny Kemp 65, Jimmy Martin 25, Imran Khan 4-82, James Exley 3-38) 9pts beat by 82 runs Houghton Main 188 off 38 overs (Alex Porter 43, Ian Simon 23, Ali Manzoor 5-55, Sam Taylor 4-25) 0pts.

444th MPAD
New Jersey Army National Guard
After high intensity training under the Fort Indiantown Gap sun, and nights spent trekking through the woods and over the hills of western Pennsylvania, New Jersey has awarded eight soldiers with the Expert Infantry Badge, one of the highest prizes an infantryman can earn.
On day one of the competition, 40 soldiers from all over New Jersey had eyes on the badge. However, as each event came to an end, so did the hopes of some candidates.
“It’s called the Expert Infantry Badge for a reason,” said 1st Sgt. Brian Townsend, the president of the committee that organized EIB 21. “The thing that knocked most people out was the small details. It’s not the Everybody Infantry Badge. It’s the Expert Infantry Badge.”
This particular expert infantry competition returns to New Jersey with brand new feel.
In previous EIB competitions, candidates displayed their warrior competence in a round-robin fashion, with each of the 40 events being timed.
In EIB 21, there are fewer events to complete, however, it is now done in a combat setting, adding a completely new element to the process.
“When the blood got pumping and the adrenaline was flowing, it made it more difficult to execute the tasks that you’re sure you know how to do,” said newly minted EIB recipient 1st Lt. Andrew Stevens of HHC 1/114th. “With the amount of preparation I put in to this, it was all muscle memory, but the combat element made it a bit more difficult.”
Though difficult, it did not stop Stevens from enjoying the tasks.
“The lanes were my favorite part,” he said. “Once we got passed the preparation, I had a really good time.”
Preparation was a huge part of EIB 21.
When the day was over and all of the competitors gathered for dinner, normal chow chatter was nowhere to be found. Instead, tips for the next day’s event feverishly bounced off the walls. Terms like left and right limit, call for fire, SALUTE report, check for shock and SPORTS filled the dining facility, leaving little room to discuss anything else. It sounded like these soldiers just stepped off of the battlefield.
That is what the planning committee intended.
“In the old style, you didn’t get as much battle field experience, but it was a little harder,” Townsend said. “But the EIB 21 adds the element of combat stress to make it more challenging.”
That new level of stress was felt prior to each event.
“Everyone was nervous before the lanes,” said Cpt. Timothy Sorrentino, commander of HHC 1/114th and EIB recipient. “Doing all of the tasks over and over again prior to the competition was easy. But, executing them under the pressure situation was different.”
Sgt. Thomas Fisk, EIB 21 staff and trainer, said this is how soldiers of today should be learning.
“It’s good that they see a scenario and it’s battle focused,” he said. “They know what they are supposed to do with their training and can immediately incorporate it with their mission.”
Fisk enjoyed this opportunity to teach soldiers skills needed to earn the prestigious badge that he received several years prior.
“I like to teach younger guys, any of the soldiers coming up,” the Neptune City native said. “That way, when they get to be sergeants, they can teach the guys coming up. That way we can have a better Army for the future.”
The future is something that Townsend is also looking toward.
“We wanted something to build from since this is the first time we are running EIB 21,” he said. “We mirrored a lot of what was going on at Fort Benning. What I wanted to do was give the state something to build off of, so we can make this competition something great for the state.”
Sorrentino expects a number of his soldiers to take part in next year’s event.
“It’s something that every infantryman should have,” the commander said, a sentiment that all infantrymen at competing at FIG echoed.

WESTSPLAINING: how ignorant westerners condescendingly explain both current affairs and the history of central and eastern Europe from a purely western perspective, while generally demonstrating their complete lack of understanding and total disdain for the experience of the people in the region (who tend to be infintely more knowledgeable about what's going on in their own countries at present and what happened in the past).
A typical example would be people from western countries (who never experienced the joy of living under Russian or Soviet occupation) westsplaining to those "over emotional" eastern Europeans about how it really wasn't that bad, while lecturing them about Russia's "legitimate security concerns"....

I see him every day when I come back from school, sitting on a little ledge next to an old dry cleaning shop on Bazaar Road in Bandra (west). He sits there from 10 till 1 pm every day, squinting at the piece of cloth draped over his, stitching deftly. Sometimes he looks up, straightens his back and shrugs his shoulders. He is a darner – that is, he mends torn clothes. This skill is known as rafoo – the delicate and very old art of hand-mending torn clothes, using tiny, almost invisible stitches.
He has a handpainted sign behind him advertising his services. When asked him what his name was he said “Just call me Rafoowaale Chacha (Rafoo Uncle), that’s how everyone knows me.” He told me he has done this for as long as he can remember. “I think I am sixty or sixty seven years old. And I have been doing this for more than fifty years. And I will continue till my eyesight’s fine.” He lives in JJ Colony and walks at least a kilometer every day.
With him, he brings a bag full of scraps of cloth. He unravels the cloth pieces to get thread of different colours for rafoo. He says this is how the best rafoo is done – either with thread from the original fabric itself or from scraps. He has a very thin needle with him so as to not leave any marks of repairing. “It should look like it has never been torn.” He makes between Rs100 to Rs200 per day.
Dundalk overwhelm Bangor in All Ireland Final
by Roger Corbett
Bangor’s amazing run in the All Ireland Junior Cup came to an abrupt end when they were comprehensively beaten by Dundalk, eventually losing by 55-5.
Where do you start when trying to relate and absorb the events of Saturday’s final at Chambers Park? Firstly, congratulations to worthy winners Dundalk who nullified the Bangor attack, then went on to produce some stunning plays which racked up no less than 8 tries, each by a different player. For Bangor’s part, they were unable to respond to the intensity of Dundalk’s game, and lacked the cutting edge which their opponents used to great effect.
The day started full of promise, as the strong support from North Down made their way to Chambers Park in Portadown, knowing Bangor would be fielding their best team. Once again, the pundits had Bangor as the underdogs – just as they had done so in the previous three rounds! In confounding the experts earlier, Bangor produced some awesome performances against top quality opposition to get to the final. Dundalk had produced some convincing wins in the early rounds of the competition, but had struggled to get past CIYMS in the semi-final, just managing to squeeze ahead at the second time of asking. However, with a number of key players returning to the side in time for this game, they were now back at full strength and would be a formidable force to contend with.
Having won the toss, captain Jamie Clegg elected to play into the stiff wind in the first half. For the first 5 minutes, Bangor doggedly retained possession and tried to play their way into Dundalk’s half through a series of determined forward moves. However, little ground was made and, when possession was finally lost, the Dundalk back line produced a burst that simply cut through the Bangor defence resulting in an easy touch down under Bangor’s posts for a 7-0 lead.
Bangor stuck to their plan and slowly, but patiently, got their attack moving forward, eventually winning a penalty to the left of Dundalk’s posts, but Mark Widdowson’s kick into the wind drifted just wide of the mark.
The contrast in play between the two teams was becoming clear, with Bangor trying to keep the ball close while Dundalk were throwing it wide. The latter strategy was proving to be the more effective as, with 20 minutes gone, a quick back line move with players looping around resulted in an overlap on the right wing which gave a clear run in to again, score under the posts. A further 9 minutes later, they did it again and, although the Bangor defence had sensed the danger and moved across to cover it, their tackling let them down allowing Dundalk to get over in the right hand corner, taking their lead to 19-0.
By now, Bangor were trying to hang on until half time when they could regroup and come out with the wind at their backs. Dundalk, on the other hand were anxious to press home their advantage and give them a more comfortable lead. To Bangor’s credit, although camped on their own line for lengthy spells, they dug in and managed to hold on until the referee’s half time whistle.
As the teams reappeared from the dressing rooms, it was obvious Bangor were ringing the changes, particularly in the backs. With the wind advantage having lessened considerably, Bangor got the second half underway. It was now Dundalk’s turn to adopt the slow, steady approach, just as Bangor had done earlier. However, their more confident off-loading and support play was, once again, taking play deep into Bangor’s territory. Frustration at not being able to gain possession and take play out of their danger area eventually resulted in a yellow card for Clegg after a succession of penalties. Dundalk kicked the penalty to touch, won their lineout and drove for the line. Although initially held up by the Bangor defence, Dundalk’s repeated drives were eventually rewarded with another converted score, extending their lead to 26-0.
From the touchline, the Bangor faithful had felt that if their players had managed to score first in the second half, they may have been able to mount a fight-back and close the gap to their opponents. As it was, this Dundalk score simply bolstered their confidence and pushed Bangor deeper into trouble. With Bangor still a man down, Dundalk added to the score with a penalty and then another score in the corner. Everything was now working for the Leinster men, as even the difficult touchline conversion into the biting wind successfully split the posts, bringing the score to 36-0.
As the game entered the final quarter, and with Dundalk all but holding the cup, Bangor were now on the ropes. By contrast, the Dundalk players were in almost total control, and were not going to slow down now. In a 10 minute spell, they ran in a further 3 tries, making the scoreline 55-0. By now, any sense of dejection the Bangor supporters may have been feeling was now moved to feelings of sympathy for their players. However, pride was at stake and once again Bangor rallied as the game entered its final minutes. At last, the forwards got within striking distance of the Dundalk line and, although their repeated attacks were repelled, they finally managed to do what their opponents had done so effectively, and quickly passed the ball wide to Davy Charles. Even though they were 55 points ahead, the Dundalk defence made Charles work hard to drive through the tackles and score Bangor’s consolation try, bringing the final score to 55-5.
From Bangor’s point of view, the final score doesn’t tell the whole story of this competition. While the final may have resulted in a sad anti-climax for Bangor, the remarkable journey to get there will be remembered for some time. On the day, Dundalk were by far the better side, and Bangor would have to concede that their game was not up to the usual standard. However, there is no doubt the experience of competing at this level is something to relish and the goal now will be to secure a top four place in the league and try again next year.
Everybody at the club has nothing but the highest respect and praise for what has been achieved this year by not just the 1sts, but all the senior teams, and one poor result isn’t going to change that – the welcome at Upritchard Park for the returning players is testament to that. With that in mind, the players now need to put this disappointment behind them and provide the best possible response against a struggling Portadown side at home in the league next Saturday.

In front of a big crowd at Chambers Park on Saturday afternoon Dundalk delivered a stunning and ruthless display to see off the challenge of Bangor and capture the All Ireland Junior Cup title for the very first time.
Three first half tries had them firmly in control at 19-0 ahead having played with the elements at the Portadown venue during the first half and while the wind dropped somewhat after half time the Dundalk intensity most certainly didn’t as they cut loose scoring five more tries.
Dundalk returned to a heroes welcome at their Mill Road clubhouse on Saturday night after a display of pure brilliance throughout the afternoon.
Precision, pace and skill from the Louth men from start to finish left Bangor playing second fiddle for long periods.
