Bladder Cancer affects the urinary bladder and can be superficial or deep type and this affects its recurrence rate & prognosis.
Not only did I shoot some cool Lomo stuff while I was out these are some digital shots as well, enjoy. :)
After the sheepskin bladders are treated with linseed oil they are lashed together to form a raft. They have a clever way of patching holes in the bladders that is similar to a patching a bicycle innertube.
You can easily tell how it got it's name. This canyon I hike through in the morning is so full of bladder sage I call it Bladder sage canyon. Also called the paper bag plant,

Hi Alan
You poor guy. Not a lot of luck. I hope you are not too sore after those bangs. Take care. Hopefully our paths will cross at some point soon. I was due to have another bladder check under G/A on 5th November but that has now been postponed to 19th and then 26th November. It is a pain all this hanging around anticipating as I am sure you know far too well.
Best wishes

Hello John
Glad you enjoyed your Kent viist. Our son is a Friend of the Secret Garden and we go there every time that we have stayed with him in Sandwich Bay or now Sandwich. It is only just along the road from Sir Roger Manwood Scool where he teaches and now also lives.
We had an IoW excellent foray with wonderful weather and a good turn out. I have made a lot of great friends there over the years. We have a total of well over 200 species at Briddlesford Copse on the Saturday whilst the total for Sunday at Parkhurst Forest looks likely to go over 150 once all the identifications are in and this foray is only until 13.30 so those from the mainland can get the ferry and get home in reasonable time. That way I and others are then able to set things up dropping spores over-night etc. I then spent three days identifying the following week! There were also some excellent finds with many new to the IoW. Following my arrival at lunchtime on Friday four of us went to Culver Down in the hope of seeing the Ring Ouzels that had been there the previous two days, or one of the regular Peregrines. We didn't get either but had a good list of fungi there as well including an inkcap species on cow dung pats that I have identified as Coprinopsis pseudonivea with only 26 previous UK records and of course new to IoW as were two other species. This set the pattern for the weekend as there were plenty of other exciting finds. When I was first shown the bracket fungus Phellinus robustus in the New Forest some 20+ years ago it was only known on that single tree in the UK. There are still only some half dozen trees there and just two other UK sites known for this species so this was a surprise find at Bridddlesford. It will take some time before I have all the records in from others who visited for the weekend but it certainly looks like being the most successful ever in terms of good finds.
You are correct in thinking that you are incorrect that the Woburn Fungi are Russula!! Russula's do not grow in clumps and nor do they have aring on the stem (note the one standing up in the c/u) apart from a host of other reasons! This is definitely a Honey Fungus Armillaria sp. but I cannot see the detail of the ring nor the base of the stalk both of which would be necessary to ascertain the species with certainly. As such it could be either Armillaria mellea or A. ostoyae as the two most likely options!.
I went to Colworth Park to lead a lunchtime foray for Helen M-H and the Unilever NHS last Wed but as it was raining heavily I gave them a slide presentation instead as arranged just before I was about to leave here! On the way there a lorry overtook a parked vehicle on his side of the road when there clearly was not sufficient room. He clipped my wing mirror and totally removed the one on the parked vehicle. I had already had to take evasive action, hit the kerb and the bumper apron detached from my car also damaging the inner plastic mudguard. The rain, and the speed at which it happened and the need to avoid a major collision left me no opportunity to get his number and by the time I could safely open my door and get out he was way down the road. It has proved to be an expensive free lecture! I am not best pleased. Two days later a women backed her car out on the Forecourt at Clifton Post Office without looking and knocked me over as I innocently walked to the pillar box. If I hadn't hammered on her boot she would have run me over as well! She must have seen me coming as she was getting into her car as I saw her do so but she slammed her door, started up and reversed all in one move. She had not even put her seat belt on! It was not a good week!
I have a foray at Harpenden Common on Wednesday morning. Next Sunday to Tues there will be a big display etc on Fungi at Ashridge by the monument. I will be 'on duty' on the Monday. The BNHS/ RSPB Foray at Sandy, always a big one, on 3 Nov will be my last of the season.
Best wishes
Alan

It's a shrub. It's deer resistant. It's drought-tolerant. It's native to California. It kind of smells like bell peppers. It has yellow flowers that generally bloom in the Spring and Summer. It's called a bladderpod.

I gently massaged and rinsed the "stolons" of the Utricularia hoping to find the bladders. I found the bladders in what looks like clumps of mucous. I believe the species may be U. subulata.
Here's a picture of 2 of my gall bladder stones that I fished out with cheescloth. Total, I probably had about 30 of these.
A common mid-shore seaweed, often dominating large areas, the bladder Wrack has distinctive pairs of gas-filled bladders on its fronds, on either side of the prominent midrib. The bladders help the frond to reach sunlight at high tide, when light penetration is limited by sediment stirred up by waves. In season, the tips of the fronds develop swollen, warty, forked reproductive bodies.
Before massaging and rinsing the "stolons" of the Utricularia hoping to find the bladders. There were small, soft tan objects embedded in mucousy mud clumpd; not sure if they are seeds, but I've seen them with other individuals. I believe the species may be U. subulata.

Tempe Town Lake's west bladder #2 collapsed at about 9:44 p.m. local time on July 20, 2010. The lake immediately began draining, with the rupture causing a maximum recorded flow at priest drive of 11643 cubic feet per second (329.69 cubic meters / second).[1] The lake lost the vast majority of its water by the following morning.
This picture shows the deflated dam. The picture was taken the following morning, at about noon.

When it's 4 o'clock in the morning and you've got your bedfellow's breathing, the birds blethering, your bladder bursting and your brain bludgeoning, you can hardly say you're getting a good night's kip. I would have added the baby's bawling but that would have been an artistic alliteration too far - he's sleeping like an angel, not that I've ever met one, but I've been led to believe that when they're out, it's for the count.
This all reminds me of Gilbert and Sullivan's Nightmare Song from Iolanthe, although love unrequited is about the only thing that *isn't* robbing me of my rest right now, would that it were...
Unfortunately I'm too old for that now I reckon, and as I was harrumphing and hallucinating I got to wondering what on earth I would use as a picture to go with this little nighttime rant (it's daytime now, and I ain't feeling much better).
Well how about this: another major reason for losing sleep for practically all Parisian school children: the dreaded Maison des Examans. It makes Gellert Grindelwald's
Nurmengard seem like Euro Disney, doesn't it? For this is the place... (did you guess...?) where all Paris and a few surrounding areas come for a few hours of hell.
Known also as the Service Interacadémique des Examens et Concours (SIEC), which must be pronounced sardonically close to 'sick', this shudder-inducing citadel was just around the corner from where I lived in Arcueil for a few years and I passed it often.
Seeing the fingernail devouring, fag-fuming masses mingling nervously outside always made me thankful that with age also comes a great reduction in the number of tests to be sat, although the odd one does creep up now and then, and it's never pleasant.
My greatest challenge these days is to try and put a smile on my face when Sab Junior's two-tooth grin appears next to my pillow at 6 am with a nappy full of digestive byproducts. But that needn't concern us here... (it's still better than SIEC, any day).
