The event, organised by Shoot Experience, challenges participants to 'construct photos' that represent their own take on Alice in Wonderland, a movie version of which is currently showing at UK cinemas.

A spokesman said: 'All the photos are then compiled to create a unique photographic storyboard, revealed in full on the big screen. Prizes are awarded for the best and most creative photos.

'No photography experience is necessary - expect talking tattoos, carnival queens, Portobello mushrooms and lots of fun.'

The best photos will form part of an exhibition to be held at a London gallery, details of which are yet to be confirmed.

Tickets for the Notting Hill event cost £15 and must be bought in advance.

Prizes will include Olympus cameras.

Riley R. Whitener and Gena M. Whitener, both 29 and both of 310 Washington St., were arrested after a search of the home turned up 300 grams of the psilocybin mushrooms and a digital scale.

Both were booked on a charge of manufacture and delivery of a barbiturate. Riley Whitener was being held on $10,000 bond Tuesday night at the Tazewell County Jail. Gena Whitener was released on a notice to appear in court.

The street value of the drugs was estimated at $2,550, according to the Multi-County Narcotics Enforcement Group. A MEG agent and deputies with the Tazewell County Sheriff's Department conducted the search and made the arrests.

However, for many poor farmers in Papua New Guinea, South Africa, Lesotho and Rwanda, juncao means a mushroom cash crop. It is a seemingly magic technology that enables them to grow many types of nutritious and delicious mushrooms from many kinds of dried chopped grasses, bringing in cash and dignity.


Some people even name their babies Juncao (jun meaning fungi, cao meaning grass.)


"I insisted on giving it a Chinese name," says the 67-year-old inventor of the mushroom-growing technology, Professor Lin Zhanxi, who addressed the first International Symposium on Juncao Industry Development. It was held 14 years ago in Fuzhou, capital of eastern China's Fujian Province.


"Over 20 English names were suggested, such as mushroom grass and fungus grass," says Lin, a professor at the Fujian Agriculture and Forestry University. "But it's a brand-new technology and deserves a brand-new name. I'm glad I've given a new word to the English language."


The idea for juncao came from a hungry young Lin in the early 1970s. "People were starving in those days, even to death. But cattle rarely died of hunger. So I asked myself, why couldn't people eat grass just like cattle?"


In 1971, Lin put forward the idea of cultivating edible fungi in chopped-up wild grass - he was the first to do so. It was not until 1983, eight years after he entered the Fujian university, that he began the arduous research following up his idea.


At the end of 1986, Lin saw the world's first juncao mushroom sprout from a bottle filled with chopped bird's foot fern and other ingredients.


"I gazed at it in wonder and tears," Lin recalls. "We were at the threshold of an agricultural revolution."

Michael,

Good shot of a difficult subject.

These large flat objects with perpendicular projections aren't easy. I'd probably take a full frame shot of an isolated structure, like the spore capsule and stalk, using lens such as Canon's 65mm Macro, then do a completely separate shot with the whole thallus approximately parallel to the picture plane.

Did you use the Do Stack algorithm?

For mushroom grower Vince Santucci, his approaching birthday to celebrate nine decades on this earth is just another day in the office.

Associates say he's like the Energizer Bunny: He never stops.

Santucci, the owner-operator of the Elite Mushroom Co. in Avondale, can't remember a time when he wasn't growing Southern Chester County's trademark crop. "When you were old enough to walk, you were old enough to work," he said of the business and family he was born into on Feb. 19, 1920.

These days, unlike the early days of the 1900s, he's not shoveling manure or cracking open blocks of spawn. Instead, he checks the books, reviews the orders and monitors the operations.

The DoE said a survey of Craig’s Bog, Carnteel, found at least 6,496 tonnes of mushroom waste.

NASA today released the most detailed set of images ever taken of the distant dwarf planet Pluto. The images taken by NASA's Hubble Space Telescope show an icy and dark molasses-colored, mottled world that is undergoing seasonal changes in its surface color and brightness. Pluto has become significantly redder, while its illuminated northern hemisphere is getting brighter. These changes are most likely consequences of surface ices sublimating on the sunlit pole and then refreezing on the other pole as the dwarf planet heads into the next phase of its 248-year-long seasonal cycle. The dramatic change in color apparently took place in a two-year period, from 2000 to 2002.
