On April 22, 1823, in a small white Russian border town by the name of Velizh, a three-year-old boy finished his lunch and went to play outside. Fedor never returned home, and several days later, a neighbor found his body at the very edge of town, punctured in numerous places. Now largely forgotten, the disappearance of little Fedor resulted in the longest and one of the most comprehensive investigations of ritual murder in the modern world. All in all, the Velizh case lasted twelve years (1823-1835) and generated an astonishing number of documents, which are impeccably preserved in twenty-five bound volumes at the Russian State Historical Archive in St. Petersburg. Drawing on the newly discovered archival papers, I reconstruct small town life in the Russian Empire, exploring along the way, neighborly encounters, law and daily life, and the complex motivations resulting in the ritual murder charge. While scholars usually attribute the charge to antisemitism and economic rivalries, this study offers an alternative explanation. By recreating the day-to-day world of Velizh, I argue that tales of blood sacrifice proved remarkably contagious in the towns and villages of Eastern Europe because of their role in popular belief systems of the time and their ability to express the fears and preoccupations of a population that left no other records. Using the analytical techniques of microhistory, this study tells the story of a sensational legal case that allows us not only to zero in on the peculiarities of the investigative process itself, but also examine the relations between imperial rule and the everyday, the articulation of local knowledge and popular belief systems, and the habits, designs, and anxieties of government officials.

Part of BAMcinématek 2017 series Edgar Wright Presents Heist Society
Directed by Michael Mann | 1995
With Al Pacino, Robert De Niro, Val Kilmer
"Michael Mann's supremely epic LA heist flick features De Niro & Pacino in cinema's greatest cat & mouse chase."
Action auteur Michael Mann's stone-cold masterpiece features top-of-their-game performances from Robert De Niro and Al Pacino as, respectively, a snazzy super-thief and a tightly wound LAPD veteran locked in a deadly game of cat and mouse. The stylistic pyrotechnics, dazzling use of Los Angeles locales, and dense web of complex characters come together to produce a crime epic that's novelistic in scope and operatic in its intensity.
Simply one of the greatest action movies of the '90s.
There's no honor among thieves in Quentin Tarantino's still-stunning debut.

A senses-stunning thriller shot in one breathless continuous take.

How will the European Whistleblower Directive Impact Dutch Law?
By Jasper Hoffstedde* on
The European Directive for the protection of persons who report breaches of European Union law (the "Whistleblower Directive") sets the minimum standards for protecting people who report EU law breaches.
The legislative bill converting (or implementing) the Whistleblower Directive into national Dutch law was submitted to the Lower House of the Dutch parliament on 1 June 2021. Due to a legislative impasse, it is unlikely that the deadline of 17 December 2021, set by the EU, will be met. But this date retains its relevance, as European Directives acquire direct legal effect if Member States do not proceed with implementation in time and correctly.
Whistleblower Directive: what's worth mentioning?
The Whistleblower Directive has a broader scope of application than the Dutch Whistleblowers Authority Act (Wet Huis voor klokkenluiders); under the Directive, it's not just employees and civil servants who are protected, but anyone who has come across information in a "work-related context." This might include former employees, job applicants or interns, as well as volunteers, shareholders and the self-employed.
But the material scope of the Whistleblower Directive does have some limits; there still has to be a breach of EU law. That said, the EU is encouraging its Member States to extend this scope of application when they implement their national legislation. For the time being, there are no proposals to do this in the Netherlands.
Under the Whistleblower Directive, it is no longer obligatory to first report an abuse internally. While this (prior) internal reporting is still a preferred option, the whistleblower can therefore also make their report via an external channel, and can do this anonymously. The reporting person should have their report acknowledged within seven days after submitting it.
If appropriate steps are not taken within three months of an internal and/or external report, there is an option for making a public disclosure. If there is a threat or harm to the public interest, or if external reporting is not realistically possible, then such public disclosure can even be made immediately. Finally, there is a reversal of the burden of proof, meaning that the employer will have to demonstrate that there is no breach of EU law.
An employer cannot retaliate, or make threats or attempts at retaliation, if someone makes a report or a public disclosure and is correct in doing so. Examples of retaliation might include intimidation, suspension or dismissal, negative assessments or references and the termination of an employment contract or non-continuation of a temporary employment contract. In the event of retaliation, an employer faces sanctions and the reporting person will be entitled to full compensation.
All things considered, whistleblowers will enjoy greater protection from 17 December 2021, at least in relation to reporting breaches of European Union law.
The clock keeps on ticking
Whether the implementation deadline is achieved or not, the direct effect of this new European standard means that a large proportion of the business sector will be facing new obligations. Companies with over 250 employees will have to abide by the Whistleblower Directive from 17 December 2021. Companies with 50 to 250 employees will have two years more to comply, or a shorter period if that is what the Dutch legislature sets. Also, the Whistleblower Directive applies in full to all financial institutions, civil aviation, shipping, port State control and offshore oil and gas companies, irrespective of the number of employees involved.
Companies should take a close look at their internal (parallel) whistleblower schemes and either implement or adjust them before the deadline. If a company has a works council, the scheme should be submitted to it in good time for approval.

Poco – the best things come in small packages
Poco, was the big winner at the Food Made Good Awards. Opened just six months ago, by Tom Hunt, Jen Best and Ben Pryor, the East London tapas restaurant gobbled up three awards, including the top prize – Food Made Good Restaurant of the Year.
The second restaurant from self-proclaimed eco-chef Tom Hunt, Poco Broadway Market, proves ethical produce can go hand-in-hand with absolute quality. Its achievements saw it also being named Food Made Good Independent Restaurant of the Year as well as scooping the top award for English eateries.
Tom, Jen and Ben
Tom said: "Winning this award is like winning three Michelin stars for us! Sustainability is at the heart of all Poco's values. We are therefore ecstatic to receive recognition for something we believe is so important. Since we opened our first Poco five years ago the environmental consciousness of restaurants has increased dramatically. We are so proud to be amongst the best and most sustainable restaurants in the UK."
Lemons are the only imported fresh ingredients on the menu infused with Tom's root to fruit philosophy. Dishes like beetroot hummus paired with crispy fried beet leaves, trout smoked in-house with shavings from the English Oak that made the tables and Pavlova made with rhubarb curd using the yolks left from making the meringue, illustrate Poco's ethos and the huge lengths to which it goes to serve customers the most sustainable, delicious food possible.
And it doesn't stop with the food. The restaurant is built from sustainable English wood and Tom and his team of chefs have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to waste – down to the last drop of water left behind in customers glasses, used to water the plants. And, perhaps it should go without saying, that Poco is powered entirely by renewable energy.
The Food Made Good Rating doesn't lie, and all three awards Poco won were decided on the basis of them posting the highest scores. Take it from us, while Poco was pushed hard, they truly are the Food Made Good Restaurant of the Year.

Merrell continue to expand a kids footwear program begun two years ago by adding "My First Merrells" targeting newborns ages 3 to 6 months. Set to hit store shelves for Holiday 2002, the new footwear will feature a Merrell soft, silky pigskin upper with removable footbed, elastic sides, and a hook and loop closure at the back. The shoes will retail for $25. "Even the littlest people deserve to feel the comfort of Merrell shoes," says Mary Schoenborn, product manager for Merrell Kids. SNEWS® View: Ummm, like a newborn really cares about the comfort of a shoe? Puleeeze! Let's call this product launch what it really is -- Grandma bait! My First Merrells is all about business and it's yet another strong move by the Lavertue-led team. The kids business now represents 11 percent of Merrell's total U.S. business according to the company.

Waltraud und Michael Bauer supply exquisite fruit and vegetable rarities, the stuff that top chefs spin their culinary dreams out of. The couple run an agricultural business in Stetten that reminds you more of a meticulously set-out fairytale garden than of fields.
By Ute Woltron / Photography: Albert Handler
Several years ago the following happened in a top Vienna restaurant. A guest ordered a regal meal including five courses and brimming with the season's delicacies. After the scallops, John Dory and other delights had been polished off, the satisfied guest leaned back and asked to see the head chef. The latter came running, the guest looked at him ecstatically and declared that he had never eaten such good potatoes in his life. What kind were they?
The potatoes whose ranking had overtaken the seafood came from vegetable farmers Waltraud and Michael Bauer, in Stetten near Korneuburg. The farm the couple run defies the inadequate traditional de- scription of an agricultural business. Any visitor would wander through the Bauer's realm as if in a fairytale garden full of colour, fruit and fragrance.
Blooming fragrant roses of all colours as well as head-high cardones, the artichoke's wild cousins, grow between the border beds full of flowers with (needless to say) edible blossoms. Long raised beds exude the aroma of herbs most of us have probably never heard of, much less tasted. Rare apples, pears and apricots ripen on the fruit trees, while in large poly-tunnels physalis, aubergines, peppers, beans and cucumbers of all varieties run riot alongside innumerable kinds of tomatoes whose colours range from dark purple and striped green to creamy white. Their flavours vary just as much as their appearance. Continued in S-Magazin...

Haul of the wild
Unfarmed freshwater fish guarantees a very special taste experience. Österreichische Bundesforste manages Austrian agriculture and forestry, including sustainable fishing at the lake Hallstatt lake in the Salzkammergut.
By Achim Schneyder / Photography: Mirco Taliercio
The river Traun flows into the Hallstättersee, but the boat Traun floats on it, at 199 HP and built in a wharf in Linz specifically for this lake and its professional fishermen. It's Friday, 5am, and Maximilian Peinmeister, 25 and head of fishing at the Österreichische Bundesforste, and his 33-year-old colleague, biology graduate Alexander Scheck, are heading from Hallstatt to the opposite shore. A few last shreds of rainclouds hang from the sky as the diesel engine putters along quietly on the lake as smooth as glass, and the early summer sun is getting stronger. In a few minutes it will all look like a perfect picture postcard.
"The wild-fishing season starts in July and ends in October," explains the head of fisheries explains and steers towards the net hanging from a rope held down by a stone in the shallow water. With the engine now switched off, Max and Alexander pull the boat along the rope away from the shore, towards the first buoy. The latter marks the start of a 70 metre-long gillnet that begins three metres below the water's surface and reaches down to 13 metres. A cheeky gull is watching all the time, shrieking hungrily in the morning air, as one whitefish after another lands in the boxes filled with ice. "It's sustainable management we're looking out for," says Alexander and points to the nets' mesh. The 40 mm (1.5 inch- es) gaps are large and quite permeable, ensuring that it's almost entirely whitefish weighing 400 g (14 oz.) or more to get caught. "These are mostly six years old or above, so younger fish swim through." Of course this applies not just to the whitefish but also any by-catches, mostly char, trout and – very rarely – pike. "Thanks to the width of the mesh and a ban on amateur fishing for lake trout, their stock has greatly recovered," says Alexander. In short, wild fishing guarantees natural offspring, and for this reason no young fish are introduced into the lake. The annual catch definitely does not exceed the natural growth of young fish.
The first net has been dealt with, now comes the second. Both are put out on Monday and emptied once daily from Tuesday to Friday, after which they are immediately cast out again, except on Friday. Wild catches generally mean absolute harmony with nature. Fish are caught now as they were when commercial fishing in the Salzkammergut was first documented in 1280. The animals go untouched by human hand. Neither fed nor bred, they live entirely on plankton – insects that land on the lake's surface – and, if they are predatory fish, other fish. They're at least six years old or above, at least in the case of the whitefish. Another reason for the great quality of the fish is the excellent quality of the lake's water, which even in summer hardly reaches above 21 degrees Cel- sius (70 degrees Fahrenheit). "This is mostly due to the glacial water that flows in the Waldbach down from the Dachstein mountain into the lake," says Max. Together with the Traun river the Waldbach also ensures that the lake hardly ever freezes over. "It's because there's such strong streams through the lake. The last time that it was really totally frozen after a long period of extreme cold was more than 20 years ago." Continued in S-Magazin...
Lord of the
By Nina Wessely / Photography: Mirco Taliercio
Musicians, artists or chefs are said to have a revolutionary spirit; less so beekeepers. Indeed, a first encounter with Johannes Gruber in Buch am Buchberg in Styria does little to challenge this cliché. However, it soon becomes clear that a revolutionary heart does beat in Johannes Gruber's chest, fighting for greater awareness and consideration of origins, this time in regard to honey. Earlier on he believed in the natural power of wines, grown organically, bottled free of contamination. The Styrian sold them in Paris and the south of France at a time when in Austria biodynamics was something talked about behind closed doors.
Today, revolutionaries regard organic and natural wines as old hat. Maybe that's why Johannes Gruber fills up jars with landscapes made from honey, and why he's moved back from France to the hills of eastern Styria. Here he's busy shaking up the assumption that there's just simple flower and forest honey. "In the honey, the bees reflect the landscapes they live in", all within a radius of four kilometres (two and a half miles). It could be compared to a Grand Cru from Burgundy, where the wine grown in a few hectares characterises its region. "A jar of wood honey, please," is not good enough for Gruber. The order should be for "a jar of Stuhleck mountain wood honey, vintage 2013". Several of the nomadic beekeeper's hives stand at the Stuhleck, in the foothills of the Fischbacher Alps, 1,200 metres (4000 feet) above sea level. He doesn't carry his hives to the meadows on his back like they used to 200 years ago: these days bees travel by car, in Gruber's case an old VW van criss-crossing southern and eastern Styria. This can be up to three times per season, whenever a bloom has faded and it's time to move on into the forest or to a field of sunflowers.
The bees are always busy gathering and filling up the honeycombs with fresh honey, from buckwheat pollen or cherry orchards near the Slovenian border. Gruber takes out and the full honeycombs and replaces them with empty ones. "You only need to know what is in bloom when and where, and of course you also have to be on good terms with the farmers," says the beekeeper. They profit from the bees on their land, too: it's an ingenious system that couldn't have been designed better by an economist, a win-win solution for everyone, and 40–50 kilos (88–110 pounds) per comb. "That's even though beekeeping avoids industrialisation as much as possible," the former wine trader explains. The bees just can't cope with it. Maximising profits or splitting bee populations too often to keep even more hives doesn't work. "The bees will die." A beekeeper's job is to ensure that there's always enough but not too much space in the hives. "The temperature is crucial. If the hive's too big it gets too cold. If there are too many bees in one place there's a risk that they'll swarm out," settling instead in a tree trunk or somewhere else more suitable and comfortable. To avoid that, the bees need visiting at least once every ten days, which limits the number of bee populations a beekeeper can look after. In Johannes Gruber's case that's an impressive 200, with 40,000 or more animals per hive in the summer. Continued in S-Magazin...
Lamborous
Connoisseurs regard lamb from the Pogusch as the Rolls-Royce of the species. It has eaten it´s fair share to earn this reputation – in fact, it has already added spice to it´s own life...
It's Thursday. Written in large letters on the blackboard outside the house, the meaty dialect underlines the tempting announcement of freshly slaughtered lamb. Another relevant statement follows in the line beneath: "Inner Values." That should explain it all to any gourmet with even the tiniest of epicurean imagination, maybe not in great detail, but enough to go by. Also, he could always ask about the culinary excursions of the day. The staff are as genuinely welcoming and ready to give out information as their traditional Styrian outfits are real. Soon the gourmet could be sitting in the Steirereck on the Pogusch, perhaps outside on the sun terrace, almost shamelessly close to culinary paradise as he takes in the unspeakably seductive aromas rising from the plate in front of him, like roast lamb kidney with shallots and sun-dried tomatoes, or lamb's liver with shallots and thyme. Ideally it's kidneys and liver, but special requests are fine, too. The customer need only charm the waiters by complaining that he couldn't possibly choose between these two delights to discover that a whole kidney from a sucking calf, roast in deep fat, is also on offer. Just saying...
Monday was slaughtering day. "On average we deal every week with four to five of our lambs, as well as two sucking calves we get from a farmer close by. We also slaughter our own pigs, depending on demand," explains Walter Gesselbauer. Walter is something of a Pogusch bedrock: on 1 April this year he celebrated his 20th work anniversary. Heinz Reitbauer senior brought the professional carpenter on board – a wise forethought. The then boss decided that he no longer wanted to lease his restaurant and had begun to realise his vision of his own restaurant, together with the agricultural business already in existence. This rural life's work finally took off in the early summer of 1996. "Even so, I could not look after everything myself, of course, however close to my heart animal husbandry was and still is. And I also had to run the Steirereck in Vienna...
At that time, 20 years ago, the barn was where now some of the outstandingly comfortable and mostly occupied rooms are. Along with that the barn was quite a bit smaller than the new, downright luxurious home for the animals, built in 2008, just a little lower down than the main house. The façade features a large, clearly visible sign: "Romantic Rooms for Sheep". In a way we have Emma and Paula to thank for this new barn. They were two nasty hurricanes leaving devastation in their wake in early 2008, breaking trees like cocktail sticks and causing wood prices to plummet. "We made use of what is technically called the windfall, that is, the large piles of wood," Walter says as he feeds two baby sheep with a bottle. There's a good reason: "Every so often, when a ewe gives birth to twins she seems to completely 'forget' her firstborn and doesn't recognise it as her own, because too much time has passed between that birth and the second one."

It's not making me rich, but I'm self-sufficient and independent, says Martin Allram. We're sitting together with him in the shade in front of a house that's not exactly beautiful and are looking out into the truly impressive expanse of the Waldviertel. The house was probably put up here at the edge of Merkenbrecht in the 1990s, and it doesn't need to be beautiful: to be useful is quite enough. Martin Allram bought it together with the adjoining fields and rebuilt it as a shed for everything he needs alongside his grain farming. It acts as a store, the former garage is used for grinding flour, there's a large table for discussions, and the small kitchen contains an espresso machine – very important! If necessary he could even sleep here, says Martin Allram, and we can imagine that that may happen quite often.
Just now we're sitting on a few rickety chairs in the shade, and like everybody else we're talking about the unusual heat. It rarely goes above 25 degrees (77 degrees Fahrenheit) here, says Martin, but in the last few weeks it's often been around 30 (86). So this year he will also be finished with the harvest two weeks earlier. The only reason we can sit here so relaxed on this August morning is because he only sets off with his combine harvester at noon, when the dew on the grains has more or less dried off.
Martin Allram turned 50 this year, and he has decided to scale everything back a bit, to leave aside all those distractions that get in the way when you're a passionate farmer interested in the good, the genuine, the true. Essentially he wants to concentrate in future on the cultivation of old types of grain following the principles of the Demeter system. He's already produced noodles as well as baked healthy cookies, all with enthusiasm and full dedication. Eventually you spread yourself too thin, says Martin Allam as he fixes on a vanishing point somewhere out there in the endless landscape, and now it's time to make time for myself, too.

The mysterious world of mushrooms
The blossom
of the fungus
The world of mushrooms is mysterious and far from thoroughly charted, and only few of these wild things let themselves be tamed and cultivated by humans.
Coral Tooth
The Coral Tooth Fungus is a relative of the Lion´s Mane Mushroom and ranks among the gourmet edible mushrooms. It is very rarely found in wetlands or nature reserves. The coral-like fungus can reach a size of up to 40 cm and is protected in Austria. Cultivation of the fungus can contribute to biodiversity and its reestablishment.
In addition, it is also a valued medicinal mushroom and is used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). Its white coral-like fruit bodies make it a fascinating cultivated mushroom. The fungus is native to Europe, North America and Asia.
Orange Birch Bolete
This excellent firm fleshy edible mushroom is one of the most colourless edible mushrooms and belongs to the genus of the rough-legged boletus. Even very young mushrooms have a rough, scaly stem which often turns blue-green at the base. The tubular lining does not swell out from under the skin like birch fungus. The whitish flesh blacks when heated. From June to October, they usually grow on sandy, acidic soils as a companion to birch trees.
Birch Bolete
It belongs to the genus of the rough-legged boletus in which one differentiates meanwhile 40 types and in which there are no inedible and/or poisonous types. Birch mushrooms have a long stem with blackish scales in relation to their hat size. The whitish-cream-coloured tube lining has grown up in a padded form, especially in older fruit bodies. From June to October it yields fruit under birch trees on forest edges, wetlands and parks.
Pale Chanterelles
This rather rare pale Cantharellus species likes to fruit in mixed forests on calcareous soils. Its taste is peppery, sharp-aromatic and has a high vitamin and mineral content. It is considered a vital & medicinal mushroom in traditional Chinese & Japanese medicine. By the way, there are about 18 different species of chanterelles.
Puffball
This heat-loving decomposer often fruits in parks, meadows and embankments from early summer to autumn. The puffballs are among the smallest and can only be determined reliably in old age. A mix-up is of no culinary importance. Toxic fungi do not exist if the snow-white inner layer is observed without lamellae.
Entire Russula
The colourfulness of his hat skin does not always make his destiny easy. Because of its partly imposing size (20 cm) and its thick-skinned hat skin it is also called elephant ubling. This symbiosis fungus likes to fruit from early summer to autumn on calcareous soils in mixed forests.
Hypsizygus
The fruit-bodies possess a whitish ochre-colored hat with white stalk and are fused in tufts. They have a mushroom-spicy marzipan-like aroma and a slightly sweetish aniseed flavour. They are cultivated on dead or living hardwood, mainly on beech, sometimes also in the dark.
Red-Capped Scaber Stalk
This roughnut is distinguished from the birch red cap by its reddish to reddish-green scales on a white stem ground. The whitish flesh is on average first reddening then blackening. Like all red caps, it is an excellent edible mushroom and produces fruit from August to October in deciduous forests, mainly under oak trees.
Aspen Bolete
Probably the best-known red cap has a brick-coloured fine felted, mostly shortened hat skin.
The whitish stem often turns blue-green when touched and has reddish to red-grey scales. It fertilises individually or in small groups from June to November under trembling poplars (aspens) on forest edges and parks.
Heathed Woodtuft
The delicate representative of the pholiota family is a small agaric with a strong aroma. Not only does it smell pleasantly spicy, its powerful, nutty taste brings in the forest. It prefers to grow in deciduous forests, and although it looks like a bush it grows from a single stalk on stumps and branches of trees. The harvesting season kicks off in spring and lasts until late autumn.
False Saffron Milkcap
The mildly aromatic to slightly bitter astringent type of fungus belonging to the milkling genus differs from all other milklings by its orange-yellow to wine red milk which emerges upon injury and is a sure sign of its edibility. This symbiosis fungus is often abundant in young spruce cultures from August to December. With high irritant consumption, similar to beetroot, the urine turns reddish.
This mildly aromatic delicacy fruits here from July to November in mixed & coniferous forests, often on acidic soils.
Young specimens often grow together with the stem deep in the ground, so that only the light or brassy hat protrudes.
Its white hat rim and the reddish-brown color zone under the hat distinguish it from the other porcini mushroom species. Mature specimens have yellow to olive-green tube mouths as well as a stretched handle with a brownish net pattern.
Dotted Stem Bolete
One of the first edible mushrooms, usually already starting from May, which is also known as Schusterpilz because of its finely felt hat skin. It often fruits in mixed forests, on acidic soils and is hardly infested by maggots.
Its compact flesh is very sensitive and turns immediately blue under pressure. It is one of the best edible mushrooms and is just as good or even better than the coveted porcini mushroom!
Russula cyanoxantha
Its white, firm meat has a fine nutty excellent taste. The hat colours are extremely variable, mostly violet, greenish to pink and always mixed in some kind of multi-coloured. With age, the colours fade and the hat often appears rust-stained. Its special characteristic are the white, soft, flexible lamellas. This distinguishes it from the other Taubling types because there individual lamellas splinter immediately. It likes to fruit from June to October in deciduous and mixed forests on limestone soils.
Macro Mushroom
This species is also characterized by its size of over 30 cm hat diameter. However, only young specimens have an anise to almond-like odor. This subsequent decomposer quite frequently produces fruit on meadows, pastures and forest edges from early summer to autumn.
Greasy Green Brittlegill
It is one of the best edible mushrooms and one of the few raw edible mushrooms. This symbiosis mushroom fruits in deciduous forests and mixed forests from early summer into autumn. It has a greenish, typically fieldy rupturing hat skin and a very compact fleshy consistency for russula.
Shingled Hedgehog
The Shingled Hedgehog, also known as deer mushroom, has a firm flesh and a pleasant smell. It likes to fruit from late summer to autumn in high altitudes under pine trees. An aromatic spice powder can be produced from young specimens.
Handkea Utriformis
The up to 20 cm large round fruiting bodies should only be used if the meat is still white and firm. The white-spongy meat has a fine bitter almond aroma after frying and is tenderly melting. This subsequent decomposer mainly fruits on meadows, pastures and orchards in mountainous areas from early summer to autumn.
The Lion´s mane mushroom is a fungus that is very widespread in Europe and Asia, but quite rare and can be found on dying or dead trunks of various hardwoods, especially hardwoods such as beech and oak. Mostly it bears fruit in autumn, rarely also in spring.
It is one of the most widely cultivated mushrooms in Asia, where it is highly sought after not only for its excellent taste, but also for its diverse fields of application in traditional folk medicine. In Europe today it is hardly cultivated and is rarely available as fresh mushroom. Its fruit bodies can weigh over 1 kg.
Japanese Woodtuft
The Japanese woodtuft offers up a solid, crunchy texture and a fine nutty aroma that make this little beauty one of Japan's favourite edible mushrooms. It particularly
adds flavour to soups, stews and noodle dishes. When it is freshly harvested, a sticky film covers the reddish-brown, shiny cap, but this layer disappears completely during cooking.
Caesar's Mushroom
It was regarded as the favourite mushroom of the Roman army leaders and is today one of the best and most expensive edible mushrooms in the world. Its taste is pleasantly nutty and mild. The white onion-like tuber is completely wrapped in velum when young. This symbiosis mushroom fruits from May to July in the deciduous forest with oaks, beeches, and chestnuts.
Its white flesh, which is clearly yellow under the hat skin, is pleasantly mild.
The slats are free, dense and yellow in colour. Imperial mushrooms are also one of the few fungi that can be eaten raw.
Pale Oyster
If mushrooms had a club for beautiful people, the elegantly shaped pale oyster mushroom would be one of the first to be admitted. It is related to the oyster mushroom, but it is firmer and meatier, and has a surprising scent of aniseed. If it hasn't been harvested before, its cap can grow up to 20 centimetres wide, but the best time to pick it is while it's still young and tender.
Bay Bolete
This most famous felt earring has a chestnut brown matte hat skin. The whitish to yellow flesh blue when sliced slightly. With older mushrooms, the meat turns brown after cutting and should not be eaten. The first whitish tubes turn olive green in age and are slightly blue when pressed. It has a nutty-mushroomy taste and fruits from July to October in mixed and coniferous forests.
Sweetbread Mushroom
Its white, rather brittle, non-elastic flesh has a pleasant flour-like smell and taste. The flour cuttings and the toadstool are the best porcini mushroom indicators. From early summer to autumn often in mixed forests on non-acid soils.
Lurid Bolete
It can be found from June to November near deciduous trees and in parks. Its flesh is beige-yellow, in case of injury or pressure immediately black-blue discolouring as well as reddish in the base of the stalk. It has a mild, fungal taste, but in 1-5 % combination with alcohol causes gastrointestinal complaints.
Intense black-blue discoloration immediately after cutting. Compared to the flaky-stemmed Lurid Bolete, it has a reddish flesh under the tube lining which is visible as a fine line between the tube layer and the flesh of the hat.
Saffron Ringless Amanita
This unfortunately slightly brittle, good tasting edible mushroom belongs to the genus of the vaginal stripes.
It likes to fruit from May to October on moist, acidic soils in mixed forests and must be well heated like all vaginal stripes because it is slightly poisonous raw. In addition, it should only be collected by connoisseurs because there is a risk of confusion with mushrooms.
Parasol Mushroom
Its name is an outdated name for "parasol" (borrowed from French parasol in the 18th century "keep off the sun" from Italian para il sole). As a very young mushroom, it looks like a timpani mallet, at maturity it is reminiscent of an open parasol. The parasol is an excellent edible mushroom whose hat is ideal for roasting (breaded or unbreaded).
The Parasol Mushroom is a fungus common to temperate regions of Europe and named for its narrow stalk and wide, open cap. They are a sought after mushroom both for their size –which enables them to be easily stuffed or gratinated- and their flavour –which is clean and slightly nutty. The stalks, which are to woody to be eaten, can be dried, ground and used to make a seasoning.
Périgord truffle / Tuber melanosporum vittadini
Its taste is strong & seductive with hints of musk, nuts & humus. The "Melanosporum" is also commonly called Périgord truffle. But there are also large numbers of them in Spain, Italy and now also in Australia & New Zealand. The warty-black truffle with a reddish-brown shimmer has a brown-violet to black-purple flesh which is interspersed with a dense light-white vein net. It reaches its optimum ripeness between the end of November and March.
Flammulina
This typical winter fungus likes to fruit in clusters from October to April, on living and dead hardwood, especially on elms, willows & poplars. His velvety, juicy, bright orange-colored thin hats are insensitive to frost, do not rot and have a sticky, gelatinous hat skin. The taste is pleasantly fine but it is recommended to harvest only the mushroom caps because the stems in the lower area are brown to black velvety and very tough.
Albatrellus ovinus
This very fine and mild tasty edible mushroom has a fine-pored whitish-cream-coloured flesh and fruits from July to October in the low to high mountains in the coniferous forest under spruces & pines and likes to appear together with the Albatrellus confluens. It is particularly suitable for marinating and, unlike roll-porling, it does not become bitter as it ages.
Shaggy Ink Cap
The Shaggy Ink Cap possesses a very striking appearance because it resembles a large bell.
The very thin, freely hanging, closely spaced lamb leaves are not fused to the stalk and hang freely. They change their colour from white to pink to black with increasing age, several times.
It prefers grassy locations and is therefore, from spring to autumn, often found in very large groups along forest and roadsides.
The young Shaggy Ink Cap has a very mild and unmistakable aroma. It is not suitable for storage, as the meat will soon begin to melt and can no longer be used.
The Chinese have a particularly lovely name for this delicacy: hiang-gu means fragrant mushroom, highly appropriate for this mushroom, which is also greatly
appreciated in Europe.
Shiitake is one of the oldest mushrooms, and the favourite in both China and Japan. In the past the Emperor was given shiitake as a gift. This delicacy has a highly
aromatic and solid flesh.
Summer Bolete
One of the first tubes of the year. This great edible mushroom is not only highly appreciated by people. Often in mixed forests on calcareous soils, it produces fruit from May to September. It differs from the spruce ceps by its matte, sometimes finely scaly torn hat skin as well as its thinner stem with clear net pattern. Its meat is pleasantly mushroomy, nutty and it is one of the few mushrooms which are also edible raw.
Russula vesca
Because of its whitish, very firm, mild meat, it is one of the tastiest pigeons. Its hat skin varies from flesh-coloured to brownish, does not quite reach the edge of the hat and can be removed by about half. Its very dense, whitish-ceme-colored lamellae are very brittle, as with almost all species of russulas. This mycorrhiza fungus likes to fruit from June to October in deciduous and mixed forests.
Poplar Fieldcap
Particularly sought after in Italy and Japan, this mushroom belongs to the category of champignons. It loves the wood of poplars above
all and only reluctantly moves to other trees. Its delicate forest mushroom aroma remains genteel and mild, and the meat stays tender,
too. By the way, in Italy the mushroom is called pioppino, in Japan it goes by the name of yanagi-matsutake.
White Alba Truffle
The moon-yellow to golden-yellow truffle with a fine, almost smooth outer skin has an intense natural unique aroma with garlic & cheese components. The mostly hazelnut-coloured flesh, the more open with pink spots, is streaked with a dense light-white marbling. It bears fruit from September to December, mainly in Italy and the Balkans.
Lamb from Pogusch

Mu was first used (invented?) by Brasseur de Bourbourg in 1869 as the name given to a mythical continent that supposedly existed in the Pacific Ocean, according to an incorrect translation of the Codex Troano. At the end of the 19th century this fictional continent was confusingly moved by Augustus le Plongeon into the Atlantic! Subsequently, le Plongeon's friend 'Colonel' James Churchward moved Mu back to the Pacific in a 1931 book, The Lost Continent of Mu, in which he presented it as a kind of Pacific precursor to Atlantis.Churchward claimed that his work is based on inscriptions on the so-called Naacal tablets, which he was allegedly taught to translate by an Indian priest. Churchward is reputed to have devoted 50 years of his life searching for Mu. In 2011 a hoax claim that the Naacal tablets had been rediscovered did nothing but detract further from Churchward's already dubious reputation (Document 030412).
Churchward was born in England but lived mainly in America. He wrote a book on fly-fishing in Maine and even more incongruously was granted a series of railroad related U.S. patents. Although he liked to be addressed as Colonel no record of his military service has been found. He never identified the monastery where his priestly mentor lived nor has any monastery ever claimed to possess such tablets. Churchward never produced any evidence whatsoever that the tablets existed. His books cannot be treated as credible as they offer nothing but the outpourings of an over fertile imagination. At the time of his death, in California, he had a number of additional books in preparation.
Churchward's grandson, Jack E. Churchward, now has a website(a) devoted to his writings. It is not generally known that the father of modern Turkey, Kemel Ataturk, had Churchward's book studied in the hope of confirming links between the Turkish people and ancient civilisations such as the Uighur (recently in the news), Maya and Aztec!
In 1969 the French hydrologist Louis-Claude Vincent (1906-1988) published two volumes on the origins of civilisation which he placed in Mu. This was probably the last major work based on the very questionable output of Churchward.
Later psychics have embellished the already colourful writing of Churchward and pushed the story from fiction to farce.
Strictly speaking Mu should not to be confused with Lemuria, as the former is just an invention of Le Plongeon while the latter word was originally used as a geological term to describe a hypothetical submerged landmass in the Indian Ocean. Nevertheless, the two terms are now frequently used interchangeably.
Brien Foerster, the Canadian-reared writer, claims that the Hawaiian Islands are the remains of Mu(b), whereas Churchward considered them to be just a tiny part of his imaginary landmass.
Jason Colavito, following some hate mail from an over excited Mu 'believer', has written an interesting article(c) on the history of Churchward's lost continent.
*Frank Joseph in his most recent offering has some really nonsensical ideas to offer regarding mythical Mu. He claims that 40,000 years ago "sudden sea-level rises triggers migration from Mu around. The Pacific motherlanders settle on a large, fertile island about 380 kilometers due west from the Straits of Gibraltar. There, the newcomers merge with the native Cro-Magnon inhabitants, resulting in a new, hybrid culture – Atlantis." He offers no evidence to support any of this and fails to explain how his Mu was inundated, but the new Atlantic home was not.
Georges Poisson (1861-1943) was a professor of Ethnology and President of the Prehistoric Society of France. He wrote a book on the subject of Atlantis in which he linked the original Atlanteans with Cro-Magnon man who flourished 15,000 to 25,000 years ago. However, he contended that Plato's Atlantis was a Bronze Age civilisation and as such could only be identified with Minoan Crete.
He also daringly contends that the Athenian-Atlantean conflict was a mythical transposition by Plato of a much earlier struggle between Cro-Magnons and their rivals, the Combe-Capelle people.
It also appears that Poisson favoured the idea of a large landmass having existed in the Atlantic offering relatively easy access, if not a complete landbridge between Europe and America and that this landmass gradually disintegrated under the onslaught of rising sea levels, seismic activity and perhaps cosmic impacts.


Control Group, the new band comprised of Evan Reynolds (vocals, bass, guitar); Darren Korb (vocals, guitar, drums) and Jeremy Parker (vocals, guitar, drums), recently released their debut EP, Shoes Of The People. Check out the track, "Leave It Alone" below. And, if you want to go and show them some love live, they'll be at Arlene's Grocery on Wednesday, December 4...see below for full details.
Control Group is a new band comprised of three singer-musicians with some impressive Indie cred: between them they have recorded three BBC Peel Sessions, won Best Original Score at the Spike Video Game Awards, sold 200,000 albums, got NME's Single Of The Week, won a Rock Band® National Championship, had a Swirlies' song named after them, and toured with bands like Girls Against Boys, The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion, and The Damned. Having left their previous projects behind with the other detritus in rock music's roiling wake, Control Group found each other in the creative petri dish of Brooklyn. There they set about discovering their new style, expressing the spirit of their surroundings.
The band's debut 7" single contains two such treasures. It's a limited edition, hand-labeled, hand-packaged labor of love. Recorded mostly live in a Bed-Stuy basement, this record is gritty and raw. Its heavy dynamic shifts and dark sound capture the the band's nervous energy. Control Group has already drawn comparisons to the Scottish trio Paws, London Pitchfork darlings Yuck, and the still-vital Western Mass veterans, Dinosaur Jr. The digital version of the single was actually mastered from the vinyl, so it retains all the graininess of its physical origins. "We liked the feel of the vinyl versions so much, we wanted to keep that sound in the digital versions", says singer Darren Korb.

Please join the CSIS Commission on Strengthening America's Health Security on Wednesday, March 2, from 3:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET, for a fireside chat with Scott Kirby, CEO of United Airlines. J. Stephen Morrison, CSIS Senior Vice President and Global Health Policy Center Director, will host and moderate a discussion on how U.S. corporate leadership can contribute to health security.
Scott Kirby has been one of the most proactive chief executives on public health during the Covid-19 pandemic. In August 2021, United Airlines announced a vaccine requirement for all employees, the first major aircraft carrier to do so. Within eight weeks, 99.7 percent of United employees were vaccinated. As Covid-19 related restrictions begin to ease, the travel industry will have to confront a new set of challenges, including a tight labor market, an evolving workplace culture, and geopolitical conflict, all while ensuring the health and safety of employees and customers.
This event is made possible by the generous support of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
