Goji Berries
Timpanogos Nursery - Growers of Lycium barbarum or Goji berry
"Health Benefits
Goji Berries are reported to contain 18 Amino acids (six times higher than bee pollen), more Beta Carotene than carrots, more Iron than spinach, and 21 Trace Minerals.
Goji Berries also contain Vitamin B1, B2, B6, and Vitamin E (rarely found in fruits). The Goji Berry contains more Vitamin C by weight than oranges!
Goji berries are 13% protein!
This bright red berry also contains many complex compounds, and phytonutrients, which explains in part, the incredible health benefits being experienced by people today. The Goji Berry also contains extremely high levels of antioxidants. It is quite possibly the highest antioxidant food on earth."

RUSSIA
CHERNOBYL NUCLEAR DISASTER
http://www.angelfire.com/extreme4/kiddofspeed/
Time series photo journal (through Spring 2004) of the aftermath of the man-made nuclear disaster at Chernobyl. I highly recommend making the time to look at these photographs taken by a motorcycle enthusiast who periodically travels through the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone. Traveling in the Exclusion Zone requires special permission. This material is important because it provides a real example of the consequences of a man-made disaster. Keep this in mind when you think about sitting out the next struggle over life-threatening government stupidity that puts your family at risk of losing everything. How would you fare if a day came that you had to walk off and leave everything you had, including the clothes you were wearing.
