feral berries
While many rural towns across Eastern Europe face economic struggle, the Ukrainian region of Polesia, 200 miles east of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster site, has become something of a boomtown for foragers seeking mushrooms and berries — nearly all of which are contaminated with radiation.
Berries are highly efficient at soaking up and storing radionuclides, huge quantities of which were dispersed over large parts of the Soviet Union and Western Europe by smoke plumes from the explosion.
Radiation measurement checks only take place in official markets, and usually only for caesium.

Birds have comparable postures, in the following groups:
- displayed, volant, and volant contourny
- close, naiant and the contourny versions of these
- rising, striking, roussant, and the contourny versions of these

Tidemill Garden is a community garden located on Reginald Road in
Deptford, SE8. Tidemill Garden in Deptford has been occupied since
Wednesday the 29th of August, in resistance to Lewisham Council’s plans
to redevelop the area, displacing residents and destroying the garden.

fish story
“Their bodies are extremely fragile and melt rapidly when brought to the surface,” Linley said
In fact, being made almost entirely of a gel-like substance, the fish would die without the crushing pressure holding them together.
