If it seems like Dawn Holland is trying to profit off this whole Lindsay Lohan mess, that's cause she is -- because after Betty Ford put a stop to her unemployment and workman's comp, she's flat broke.
Holland tells TMZ she's no longer receiving anything from Betty Ford after she was let go last month. She says she has kids to feed and can't get another job in the aftermath of her alleged Lohan run-in.
Holland also says she's hired a new lawyer in an effort to regain her unemployment and workman's comp from BF -- which became a major priority once her deal for photos with Lindsay fell through.
Calls to Betty Ford have not been returned.
@ grandma cracker
" I agree that Holland is behind the 8-ball," Santa Monica Criminal defense attorney Steve Cron told RadarOnline.com. "Everyone knows that LL (Lindsay Lohan) was a patient at the Betty Ford Center, but it's an entirely different story to give details about her treatment and possible violations of program rules."
"to go to TV with TMZ, and to get paid for it, is a blatant violation of HIPPA, for which she could be prosecuted criminally and sued civilly," Cron told RadarOnline.com.
A lawyer for the Betty Ford Center formally contacted the California Attorney General's office late Tuesday, reporting the actions of its fired worker in the Lindsay Lohan case as a possible HIPAA violation, RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively.
Yeah, right, jill, but LL is still a self entitled brat who is covering her bad behavior with payoffs and tabloid smears on others.
@Sitting Bull
If that wasnt Lindsay's first time she snuck out, what difference would it make if she had 3 weeks left?
Lindsay is a risk taker, and plays by her rules
@ dreamon
that's your opinion, you can think what you want about her. fact is she didn't pay anyone off, even dawn's lawyer said no deal was finalized. Michael tried to make a deal without the knowledge of her team since it was reported it was Lindsay's business manager that put a stop to it and he is now attacking that business manager again and shawn has said she was never involved in any deal on Lindsay's behalf. I doubt even Lindsay knew about this.
jill, why is Lindsay the only one in Hollywood constantly at odds with the law, her rehabs and probation? Because of her behavior, jill. No one else is arrogant enough to keep making the same mistakes.
Again, if it was you or me we would have to play by the rules.
Lohan is a pro at playing the game. She's been doing it for years. She is fully aware of the legal loopholes. Not taking the breath test was proof of that.
Why not take the test if she as she claims "I believe I did nothing wrong. C'mon she would have been caught.
@ dreamon
she's not the only one. same happened to Robert Downey Jr and many, many others. Unfortunately, addiction makes you do really stupid stuff. she is far from the only one in hollywood that stuff like this has happened to.
why do you think she didn't take the test? by law Betty Ford has to notify her judge if she refuses to take any test as that is the same as a dirty test. she may have refuse to take it with Dawn but there is nothing to suggest she didn't take a test. this idea that BF feels the need to cover for lindsay is ridiculous. they have had much more high level celebs at that rehab to be worried about lindsay.
Jill @ 66....Yet another example of half truth. I NEVER SAID DH WAS BEHIND THE 8 BALL. Of course BF had a lawyer contact the Attorney General. That's just covering themselves. Sorry, but no amazing revelation there. I did say though that DH could be civilly liable for defamation of Lindsay's character, but that one is even iffy. A suit against DH would yield little and Lindsay's character is anything but stellar. It would be much to do about nothing. This "violation" of Miss Lindsay has been a gold mine of free publicity, gotten her $45,000 plus tab at BF written off and kept her name alive. Camp Lohan should be laughing and counting their chump change over this one, not screaming damages! Lindsay needs all the freebies she can get for that big comeback of hers.
You know what I think is super embarrassing for Lindsay is though, that rag tag payoff attempt. Any star of merit could have come up with the 25k that ghetto DH was asking for for her silence. Now that's priceless! After all this clucking now the DA in Riverside has his panties in a bunch and is doing a real investigation and it may be DH with FU painted on her nails about keeping her yap shut about Lindsay. JAY VEGAS is correct. The tapes ought to be a gas.
@Sitting Bull "Lindsay did not drink that night. She would not drink 3 weeks before release from BF. How can people who seem so very knowledgable and extremely smart believe such nonsense? She passed the breathalyzer. Does that mean nothing? Will you folks get a grip!!!!"
Why are you so sure Lindsay did not drink and passed a breathalyzer?
If Lindsay was drinking or not, the point it MOOT! Next date to watch is Feb 25th, I cant tell what will happen but my guess is the judge is exasperated Lindsay. No jail time for Lindsay and the Judge will just tell her to get out of his face.
That's good for her. She should have stuck by her guns and did what was right instead of listening to Michael Lohan false promises in order to keep his daughter out of further trouble.
If she is broke how can she afford to hire a lawyer?
@ Jill, you bet, should be fun. BTW, if LL ever does get a handle on her drug problems I think she will be an unstoppable force. Adderall is going to tear her heart out if she goes there again. Hope she gets the support and strength that she needs. Ciao...
@ Joann
If she is broke how can she afford to hire a lawyer?
Very good question and one that hasn't been brought up.
Its also possible Dawn got 15k out of 25 and now 10k were left which they dont want to give. I dont think they screwed her totaly otherwise LiHo would have been in jail already.

Tcl::Glob - Parse and compile glob notation expressions.
A PGE-based parser for glob notation.
See PGE::Glob
for a slightly different glob syntax.
The following special characters are supported
Matches any single character
Matches any number of any characters, including no characters.
Matches any character in the given set. Sets are either a sequence of explicit characters, or a range specified with a dash, e.g. [aeiou] matches lower case ASCII vowels, while [a-z] matches any lowercase ASCII letter.
Match a literal character,
\* matches the literal *
avoiding its special meaning.
compile_glob(PMC source,
PMC adverbs :slurpy :named)
Return the result of compiling the glob expression given by source
Normally this function is obtained using compreg 'Tcl::Glob'
instead of calling it directly.
Returns the compiled regular expression.
If a target
named parameter is supplied,
then it will return the parse tree (target='parse'),
the expression tree (target='exp'),
or the resulting PIR code (target='PIR').
glob(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs :slurpy :named)
Parses a glob expression,
returning the corresponding parse PGE::Match
glob_literal(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs)
Scan a literal from a string,
stopping at any metacharacters such as *
or [
Return the matched portion,
with the ast object set to the decoded literal.
glob_quest(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs)
Process a ?
wildcard character in a glob.
For this we just return a CCShortcut that is set to '.'
glob_star(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs)
Process a *
wildcard character in a glob.
This is a little bit more complex,
as we have to return a quantified '.'.
glob_enum(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs)
Parse an enumerated character list, such as [abcd], [!abcd], and [^0-9].
glob_alt(PMC mob,
PMC adverbs)
Parse an enumerated character list, such as [abcd], [!abcd], and [^0-9].
Registers this compiler object as name
and using compsub
as the subroutine to call for performing compilation.
Compile source
(possibly modified by any provided options).
This is basically a cut and paste of PGE::Glob. There should probably be much less code duplication here.
While originally implemented based on Tcl's [string match]
globbing syntax,
this code is useful enough to be part of parrot's core.
PGE::Glob was originally authored by Jonathan Scott Duff (email@example.com), It has been updated for later versions of PGE by Patrick R. Michaud (email@example.com).

Blame it on the rain.
The Bluefield Blue Jays and Burlington Royals resumed their game from July 9, suspended in the first inning in Burlington, due to rain, Friday evening at Bowen Field. Not too long into the game a tremendous downpour forced nearly an hour delay. After the delay the Royals wiped out a 5-1 Bluefield lead and hit their way to a 12-5 win.
Resumption of the game in the bottom of the first saw first round draft pick Bubba Starling lift a sacrifice fly to right that scored Terrence Gore to tie the game. Bluefield's Daniel Norris returned to the mound, for the resumption, as he was the starting pitcher when the game was halted a month ago.
The Jays broke the tie in the third. Dickie Joe Thon singled to left and went to second on Matt Dean's groundout. Thon trotted home on Nico Taylor's infield single. Taylor swiped second and raced home on D.J. Jones' base hit to put Bluefield ahead 3-1.
Bluefield extended its lead in the top of the third. Seth Conner had an RBI double to score Jorge Vega-Rosado who had singled to lead off the inning. Conner scored on Dean's double to right.
The rains came in the bottom of the third with one out and play was halted for nearly an hour.
Both Bluefield manager Dennis Holmberg and Burlington manager Tommy Shields said the rain affected their teams' play, but in opposite ways.
"I think it (the delay) affected us a lot," Holmberg said. "We had (Dennis) Norris on the mound and whenever he's scheduled to pitch, it rains as it did tonight, but I thought it shifted the while momentum of the ball game.
"Their starter, our starter, at that point I thought our starter was better. We were scoring run. We were making some things happen.
"We were running a little bit on fumes in the bullpen because of some ball games we played in the past 24, 48 hours. So we weren't fully loaded in the bullpen going into the ball game. But the momentum of the game just shifted right out of the rain delay and it was a different ball game."
A different ball game indeed, and Shields felt the same way.
"We were as flat as a pancake and the rain delay really helped us," Shields said. "Norris was nasty and I thought the rain delay helped us in that regard because he couldn't come back and pitch.
"I thought the kids really battled hard, had good at-bats and did a very nice job."
Appalachian League President Lee Landers, in attendance for the game, said there have been an unusually high number of games affected by the weather this season throughout the league.
"Last year we had five total rainouts in the league," Landers said. "Going into tonight (Friday) we've had 34. You really get backed up with doubleheaders and what the rules are is you can only play two (doubleheaders) in a row and three in a seven day period, so we have some (games) that we can't make up.
"It could affect the pennant race... Johnson City only led Greeneville by half a game going into tonight for the second place spot to make the playoffs. I've impressed on the managers, 'I know you don't like to play in the mist, but we've got to get these games in.' To keep the integrity of the schedule we have to do these things."
Another thing that is being done for the remainder of the season is the waiver of the curfew.
Normally no inning can be started after 12:50 a.m., but due to the need to get games completed, Landers has waived that rule for the remainder of the season.
Following the delay Julio Carmona went to the mound replacing Norris. Burlington also changed pitchers after the delay, Mark Peterson taking over for Freddy Rodriguez.
The Royals got to Carmona for a single run in the fifth and things remained tight between the two teams until the bottom of the seventh when the wheels came off the Bluefield bus. Shane Davis came into the game for Bluefield in the bottom of the sixth, replacing Carmona.
Beau Maggi walked to start the inning, then Mark Threlkeld homered to bring the Royals to within a run. Terrence Gore walked and Humberto Arteaga reached on an error.
The Royals then had four consecutive singles chasing Davis in favor Joe Spano. Spano got Maggi, who started the inning, to ground into a double play to end the inning. When all the counting was done the Royals had scored six runs to take an 8-5 lead.
Daniel Stumpf replaced Peterson on the mound for Burlington in the top of the eighth and sat Bluefield down in order.
Burlington, however, was not done scoring. In the its half of the inning Threlkeld led off with a double to start the action again the hit parade started and this time around the Royals had four runs reach home and their lead grew to 12-5.
Stumpf got the side out in order in the ninth and picked up his first save. Peterson got the win as his record improved to 3-0.
Davis suffered the loss, his first decision of the season.
Christian Lopes, Seth Conner and Dean each had a pair of hits to pace the Jays hitting attack, each of them with a double and a single.
Patrick Leonard was four-for-five for Burlington and Threlkeld was three-for-four with a home run.
The final game on Friday night was still in progress at press time.
At Bowen Field
Bluefield..................122 000 000 — 5 10 4
Burlington...............100 010 64x — 12 14 3

Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:What if there had been no American War of Independence? What if Hitler had invaded Britain? What if Kennedy had lived? What if Russia had won the Cold War? Niall Ferguson, author of the highly acclaimed The Pity of War, leads the charge in this historically rigorous series of separate voyages into imaginary time" and provides far-reaching answers to these intriguing questions.Fergusons brilliant 90-page introduction doubles as a manifesto on the methodology of counter-factual history. His equally masterful afterword traces the likely historical ripples that would have proceeded from the maintenance of Stuart rule in England. This breathtaking narrative gives us a convincing, detailed alternative history" of the West—from the accession of James III" in 1701, to a Nazi-occupied England, to a U.S. Prime Minister Kennedy who lives to complete his term. Synopsis:Speculative history at its best, in which a talented team of historians, led by Niall Ferguson, explore what might have happened if nine momentous events had turned out differently. Synopsis:What if there had been no American War of Independence? What if Kennedy had lived? These are some of the questions "answered" in "Virtual History", which provides intriguing, far-reaching answers to these questions.

Local law enforcement officers participated in an Olympic-style torch relay Thursday as they carried the "Flame of Hope" a portion of the way to California State University in Long Beach to open the 2013 Special Olympics Summer Games.
As part of the route in South Pasadena, members of the South Pasadena Police Department, along with City Councilman Michael Cacciotti on bicycle, carried the torch north on Fair Oaks Avenue Boulevard, west on Monterey Road, onto Pasadena Avenue, before handing it off to officials in Highland Park.
This year's Torch Run started early last week with the Southern leg originating from the Chula Vista Police Department. From start to finish, more than 3,500 law enforcement officers, including police chiefs and officers, military police and sheriffs will carry the torch about 1,500 miles throughout the Southland before arriving at the start of the weekend Special Olympics event.
Athletes and volunteers travel from all over Southern California to participate in the annual event featuring 1,100 athletes, 300 coaches, 3,000 volunteers and spectators. Young persons and teens will compete in a series of events including aquatics, track and field, basketball, bocce, golf and gymnastics.

Also, the word "rankings" is misleading. Rankings for what? Do they mean words tehy already ranked for they now ranked better for? Or is a better word "traffic", as in they got more traffic. The classic example of the latter is a job site. Jobs only last, in some cases, hours. So, if those that last more than a day are indexed, surely traffic will increase, even if most jobs only get one or two clicks, that is one or two more clicks than they would otherwise have got.

For me, the only real surprise was this comment:
Indeed, out of 20 advertisers and online marketing pros interviewed by BusinessWeek, 10 had experienced firsthand a boost in search-engine rankings when they signed up for paid inclusion.
Well, er der! Why the heck would you do Paid Inclusion if your rankings didn't go up? My big question is: What is wrong with the other 10 Advertisers? They must develop some pretty awful feeds!

Sinking the Ship...
by Crockett
posted Sep 30 2010 6:43AM
If you have been listening to the show as of Wednesday and today, then you probably have heard something doesn't sound quite right. Such as it no one talking when they should be, a song coming on late, Eric's voice just shutting off, as well as a whole sort of problems. Well I can safely say, All those problems are because of me...Crockett.
You see, usually Eric runs the board, the touch screens, and the phone calls, but since he is going on a cruise next week, I will be running all that fun stuff. So this week has been my horrific week of training. Going into this I figured, "no problem, I got this, I have been watching Eric do this for weeks now." Boy was I wrong.
Turns out, it's about 1000 times more difficult than he makes it look. Just for a 30 second break there is a ton that goes into it. And while I'm screwing everything up, all I can see is a disgruntled Eric, rubbing his temples, and gritting his teeth.
Worst part about this whole mess is, Eric has been here to save me when I start to crash and burn, next week.... He's not here. So if you tune into the show next week, and it sounds a bit off, thats my fault....sorry.

You had better say your prayers & hope that Selena can bail you out!
You know the old saying either your going to sink or swim. I'm sure Selena will catch you when you fall or maybe Eric can leave you one of his Hawaiian shirts for good luck.

[Our Scandal] Erwin Smith X Reader -Oneshot-Notes:So, first little thing before I start my challenges in attempt to extinguish this terrible writer's block. It's terrible >.> I don't even know how I wrote this. But I did. So, I hope you enjoy.**Disclaimer: I do NOT own Attack on Titan, the Characters, or the Reader!**--They were starting to notice, and you didn't know what to do. After joining the Survey Corps you had began to change from the talkative, bombastic girl who wanted to help everyone to the reserved girl who blushed and looked at edge most of the day. The others had worried for you, fearing only the worst that might have happened to you. Had you been attacked? Had you been threatened? Did you get into trouble? The thoughts were going through their heads whenever they saw you pass by, hands stuffed into pristine white pant pockets, your (color) eyes towards the dirt crunching under your feet.It wasn't until one day during training that their suspicions changed directions.

Pirate!PrussiaxReader - All That's LeftHis country was gone, and all he had left was his ship. He was a pirate, a fierce one at that. His crew looked up to him, believing in hope. The black ship roamed the seas, destroying what they wanted, and taking what they wanted. Doing as he pleased filled his empty heart.Gilbert Beilschmidt was the captain of his ship. Everyone in the world feared him, even his brother. He stood at the top of his ship, looking out in front of him as his crew ran around. A smirk appeared on his face, yet there was something missing. He looked around, eyes narrowing and he pulled out his spyglass.Off in the distance was a ship. By the flags, he guessed it was a royal ship. He laughed loudly and snapped at his crew. "Men, get ready! We have another winner!" The men below cheered and Gilbert pointed towards the ship, excitement clouding his mind. All he wanted was to crush someone.As they got close to the ship, he noticed that no one was on the deck. He was confused, walking down the stair

When its Ludwigs POV, I wont be replacing his W's with V's like I do when I make him speak **********You blinked slowly, and the first thing you realised was that you wern't alone. Sure enough, when you blinked some more, you found that you were pulled close to a warm, muscular body. Your legs were tangled with someone else's and your arms were trapped inbetween your body and the other persons. The blanket that was covering you and just about covered your mouth. You gasped and slowly tilted your head upwards. Mr. Beilschmidt was asleep, his head resting on the top your
Merciful (Pirate!Prussia x Reader)He did not care even to notice he wasn't alone until he reached the shore of the large town, cutlass in hand whilst a flintlock rested in the fingers of the other, the grip easy and his expression calm enough that one could easily assume he had no fears about his place on the beach that night. The entire place was deserted at first sight, the people of the town assuredly sound asleep in their beds; the sea remained at low tide, exposing much of the coastline itself. If he glanced behind himself he could still catch sight of his ship resting on the waters quite a distance away, although near enough that he didn't feel completely desolate.An icy gust of wind blew suddenly past him, causing him immediately to shudder. Drawing a trembling breath, he quickly drew his cloak further over his shoulders, soothed by the feel of the material against his skin but also slightly bothered with the fact that he was forced to hide his face whilst he wandered the village, and also the town

Your vatti smiled with warm eyes, watching his little girl was so precious to him, though he would never admit it to his bruder out loud."_________, vhere did you learn zhat lullaby?" He asked you, placing you on his lap. You smiled up at the warm grin your vatti wore."Australia told it to me vatti!! It's pretty, ja?""Ja, just like my little girl."

Hong Kong X Reader(Hong Kong is a student in this one ^_^)You had signed up for 2-D and it had bee nothing but boring. After a couple of weeks you were allowed to freely draw, paint, of make any form of 2-D art that you desired. You focused your art mostly on black and white. Limiting yourself to use only the colors in-between. They turned out stunningly beautiful. The class consisted of only about ten students and you knew all of there names. There was one in particular that you had a crush on. Hong Kong, the slightly apathetic and mysterious dark haired boy. He was sitting on one of the high wooden stools with his drawing board proper up on his lap. On the tall table next to him sat a pallet of brightly colored pools of paint. He was frowning slightly as he delicately applied paint to the canvas. Then he glanced up and made eye contact with you for a brief moment. Embarrassed you quickly ducked you head down and resumed sketching a soaring owl with charcoal. When you sneaked a peck in his

You think 'Why did I just have to steal that necklace! You run down the road knowing you need to be a little less obvious and get off the main road. Your olive green hood flopping with the momentum of your fast legs. You quickly find a big enough hole near a tree to hide in and covered yourself with branches. Hoping you were camouflaged enough you wait. Once your ears hear horse hooves your whole body tenses. When you see the dark riders coming one way another man is coming the other way. "You sir, did you see a girl on this road a few minutes ago." One of the riders was addressing the man walking on the road. "Are you talking to ze awesome Prussia? Vell no I d
100 Themed Challenge- Birth- Prussia x Reader Chapter 1; Birth You quietly wandered down the halls of your new school, High School Hetalia . You've just moved here from your country, (c/n) to Germany. You've been to the country many of times before and also the school. But, you came and went so fast that no body even had the time to acknowledge you or get to know you're name. You were basically the new girl every time you went there. You didn't really mind; you didn't bother anyone, and the students did the same in return.The sounds your footsteps were the only heard in the hallways at the time. You took a glance down at your schedule, concluding that your next class was art. A small feeling of relief came over you, since you were rather artistic and obviously, art was your best class. You continued to walk down the hallway some more before coming to a halt in front of a tall, wooden door. The door was decorated in crafts in which the upper classmen had made. It was mostly paper mach
Scotland x Reader - After Hours DrinksYou, Antonio, Gilbert, and Francis stumbled down your street, singing loudly and ignoring the shouts to shut up. You three had just finished with work, then happy hour, and the Bad Touch Trio were kind enough to walk you home."WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS, MY FRIENDS AND WE'LL KEEP ON FIGHTING TILL THE END!" You three sang or screamed. Then you turned and pointed at Gilbert and he air guitared the rest. Antonio and Francis suddenly got a devilish look when you reached your front yard. They stood on either side of you and kissed your cheek, dangerously close to your mouth. You were much to soused to notice, but some one did."YOU BE GETTIN OF ME LAWN AN ME GIRL!" came a loud Scottish shout. Allitster marched down the lawn and scooped you up, carrying you back to the house. The trio of course followed in the house, as Allister was to busy with you to stop them.

The majority of successful individuals have held themselves, and continue to hold themselves, accountable to at least one other person.
As Coach Steele has stated, "No more lies!" It is time to hold ourselves accountable to someone else.
Our ONLY rule is: YOU MUST TELL THE TRUTH.
1. Choose your level of involvement:
LOWEST 1 Message Per Month
LOW 1 Message Every Two Weeks
MEDIUM 1 Message Every Week
HIGH >1 Message Every Week
2. Describe the type of partner you would like:
{type details about yourself if you would like
a partner who is similar to you... age?,
gender?, interests?}
Partners will be matched up by the
matchmaker or current moderator.
3. Contact an (officer/moderator) or make a

"Beginning farmer" resource expands
Jul 29, 2008 — A Cornell Cooperative Extension program for beginning framers is expanding on to the web. A new website guides new farmers, and farmers changing crops or marketing strategy, step by step through starting a farm business: from setting goals and writing a business plan, to evaluating land, to taxes and permits. There's a frequently asked questions section, worksheets to download, and an ongoing forum. The website is the latest offering from the New York Beginning farmers Resource center. The center is based at Cornell, but its roots are in the North Country. Mollie Ames, a farm business educator at the Jefferson County extension office, told Martha Foley the program goes back a few years...and it's working.

Morchella esculenta (common morel)
The common morel and related species, popularly known as morels, produce their distinctive fruitbodies in spring and are sought-after edible fungi.
Species information
- Common name(s): common morel
- Conservation status: See Threats & Conservation below.
- Habitat: Calcareous or nutrient-rich soil, sometimes amongst woodchips or on fire sites, often in disturbed areas. Also in woodland, evidently mycorrhizal with pine, spruce and other conifers at some stage of the lifecycle.
- Known hazards: Although sought-after as good edible fungi, morels should always be well cooked before eating and never be eaten raw. They contain toxins which are denatured by heat, and if eaten raw can cause stomach irritation which may be severe in some people, with nausea, vomiting and abdominal pain. There is an old report of cooked morels causing vomiting after later consumption of alcohol, but this is unsubstantiated. Such a reaction, however, is well known for some of the larger ink-caps (Coprinus spp.). The false morel Gyromitra esculenta also occurs in spring and must not be confused with Morchella as it is very poisonous; it lacks the sterile ribs of true Morchella species, and is mycorrhizal with pines.
- Kingdom: Fungi
- Phylum: Ascomycota
- Subphylum: Pezizomycotina
- Class: Pezizomycetes
- Order: Pezizales
- Family: Morchellaceae
- Genus: Morchella
About this species
Morels are well known and distinctive spring-fruiting fungi, with large fruitbodies that have long been sought-after as a culinary delicacy. The common morel was first named by Linnaeus in 1753 as Phallus esculentus, from its broad resemblance to fruitbodies of stinkhorns (Phallus spp.), especially those in which the fleshy spore-bearing mass (gleba) has been lost. However, stinkhorns are basidiomycetes, and are now known to be quite unrelated.
Despite being well-known, the ecology and taxonomy of morels remain poorly understood. Species are known to be variable in form, yet are all remarkably similar in microcharacters, so that their delimitation is uncertain. Molecular study has yet to clarify this. Morels also have a complex ecology which is not fully elucidated, including a saprotrophic phase often involving the formation of underground sclerotia-like structures, as well as a mycorrhizal phase linked to various coniferous trees.
Geography & Distribution
Common morels are widespread and reported from many countries worldwide, and are apparently almost cosmopolitan in distribution. However, due to uncertainty in delimiting taxa in this species complex, M. esculenta sensu stricto may eventually prove to be more restricted in distribution.
More InformationMorchella esculenta, Tauberland, Germany (Image: Bernd Haynold, courtesy of Wikimedia Project)
The fruitbodies of Morchella esculenta are variable in size and shape, commonly 10 - 15 cm high but often larger, comprising a stalk and fertile upper part or cap, hollow. The cap is rounded, subglobose to ovoid, or sometimes more elongated and occasionally conical, 'honeycomb-like', comprising irregular fertile pits separated by a network of narrow sterile ridges or ribs, greyish to pale yellow-brown, delimited from the stem by a shallow furrow. The stem is well-developed, stout, whitish to cream, sometimes enlarged towards the base, and the surface is often somewhat furrowed and bearing fine scurfy scales especially towards the apex. The spore deposit is deep cream to yellowish, and spores are broadly ellipsoid, smooth and lacking internal oil drops.
The complex ecology of morels has been recognised only in recent years, and many details remain to be elucidated. It seems that their life cycle may involve a saprotrophic phase, with production of sclerotium-like structures and formation of fruitbodies on disturbed, often nutrient-rich soil, alternating with a symbiotic mycorrhizal phase associated with conifers in forests. The latter phase has been demonstrated in association with species of spruce, but may involve other conifers. It is ectomycorrhiza-like but with incomplete development of the Hartig net which characterizes such mycorrhizas, and also involving hyphal penetration of the root cells. They are also considered to be parasitic, hyphal connections to roots of Cornaceae and Oleaceae having been reported as early as 1865; mycorrhizal status has long been mooted. The sclerotium-like structures develop beneath the soil surface and may lie dormant until stimulated to germinate. This may be the reason why huge fruitings of morels, sometimes involving many thousands of fruitbodies, can appear within a year following fires. The post-fire harvest of morels is well known, and of commercial importance in North America.
Threats & Conservation
Although not considered of conservation concern in UK, morels are comparatively rare in parts of Europe and have been placed on provisional red data lists in some countries. Hence, Morchella esculenta as well as M. elata are considered rare in Montenegro and appear on their provisional red list, and M. elata is considered 'near vulnerable' in Bulgaria, and 'vulnerable' in parts of Poland. Morels are commercially harvested, especially in parts of western North America, and sustainable management policies have been introduced there.

More Information- Culinary delicacy
- Nutritious
- Medicinal
Morels are a prized culinary delicacy, one of the few edible larger fungi to appear in spring. They are considered one of the best of the edible fungi, sought-after and commercially harvested in North America and elsewhere. The species can now be successfully cultivated and may become of economic significance in this respect. The fruitbodies are considered quite nutritious, containing high-quality protein, and being rich in minerals and low in calories, though as noted above, they must be cooked and never eaten raw.
Morels also have various medicinal uses, particularly in parts of Asia. For example, in traditional Chinese medicine they have been used to treat indigestion, excess phlegm, croup, and shortness of breath. Bioactive compounds have also been reported in Morchella, based on study of cultured mycelia, including some with anti-tumour, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory activity. Compounds linked to immune-system enhancement have also been reported.
Other Morels
More InformationIt is not certain how many Morchella species can be recognised in Britain, but at least three and probably several others occur. Of these, the 'half-free morel' (Morchella semlibera; sometimes referred to Mitrophora) differs in having the lower part of the cap entirely free from the stem. It has a rather conical cap with some dark, vertical ribs, and is a distinctive species, the only one which can be readily identified. Other morels are very variable in form and colour, even from within a single population, and can look quite different as they mature.
The microcharacters hardly vary between species, so that the true number of species and their delimitation is still uncertain. Some workers recognise many based on small differences in form, others only a few. Two main groups can be distinguished, the 'black' morels with rather conical caps and parallel vertical ribs, and the 'yellow' morels, including M. esculenta, with irregular ribbing and caps which are variable in form but not usually conical. At least three species have recently been recognised in the M. esculenta group in Europe. The conical morels (M. elata group) are equally problematic. These differ from M. esculenta in having mostly parallel, usually blackish, vertical ribs, with horizontal cross-ribbing, and quite coarse scurfy scales on the upper stem.
Morels at Kew
Morels have occasionally been recorded in the gardens at Kew but are uncommon. Look for them in suitable areas, such as on woodchip mulch, in April and May.
Herbarium collections of Morchella esculenta from throughout its range are maintained in the Kew Mycology herbarium and, although not accessible to the general public, are available for study by mycologists.

the left, looks more deep-sea and would work on more backgrounds, the right one reminds me of ice too much for some reason...
Off the coast of present day Mexico a team of fearless divers are preparing to loot sunken treasure from shark infested waters. To emerge with their limbs intact, they must use every trick at their disposal to outsmart, avoid, or disable a pack of vicious man-eating sharks. Depth is a competitive multiplayer game which blends heart pounding hide-and-seek gameplay and visceral action in a dark aquatic world. Predator, or Thief. which will you be?
the left, looks more deep-sea and would work on more backgrounds, the right one reminds me of ice too much for some reason...
I prefer the one of the right. A lot better than the left.
Maybe it's not as deep-sea-ish but I think it's better.
Yeah i like the one on the left, the one on the right looks kinda like something you would see on a piece of shark hunting equipment, while the left really looks like a deep sea emblem kinda thing. They're both great though.
I say the left. It's simpler, and has nicer effects overall. i'm not digging the textured background from the right side.
I vote for left. Both are good but the left is just spot-on. Like it's made for this game :P
Left, it just looks a lot sharper and packs more of an impact.
I agree with the left as an emblem. (the right looks like a flag material because of the scratches or whatever they are (I would loose them and have a solid colour instead).
either way left for me.
I have to buck the trend and say the one of the right; it looks like you're peering into the ocean and finding the shark. I won't buck the trend in saying that they both look excellent.
Both of them are great (they are the same thing anyway, just with different colors and effects) but I think the one on the left is more interesting.
They are both great, and I would like to see them both used... perhaps one for smaller icons and the other for larger? If I absolutely had to choose one though, it's the left, though it only wins by smidge.
Left has a more stunning effect, but it's not as pleasing to look at as the right one.
I like the right one, it has more defined shapes and the shark looks like it's out to mindlessly eat someone, the left one has more of a yawning expression.
As a logo, 100% left. If you need a more subtle variation/mark, you can always indent it into a colour, which is what the one on the right is. Not really a decision...
Right one please, and also, add some scratches to it, or bites :)
Left as a logo..
Right could always be a background or something...
Right looks more like shallow, non-threatening tropical water.
Left looks menacing and scarier.
most shark attacks happen in shallow water :)
Left is better. Put the dark blue shark emblem from the left on the light blue background, gues that would work better.
The tribal look of the one on the right makes it boss.
Hey guys, we're working on an emblem to represent the game. Which variation do you like better?
