Zyggy’s head snapped back to Sila as she began to lean around her - not touching her at all, but very present near her, almost guardian like.
A steady stream of soft hissing which, when focused on, might have distinguished itself as a constant stream of run-on sentences began to emanate from her.
"Sila, sila, calm- Blue skies and green meadows, blue skies…Do not fight it- Let them come, as they may, in and out like water in a sieve… What do you see little bird? Breath, you are alright, I am here and I will not leave. I am here, you are safe…"
She shifted, her gaze locked on the trembling, pale, pained little girl as she struggled before her, not daring to touch her. Not once did she pause in her soft chanting reassurances, not once did she try to move her, so consumed was she with the tiny figure curled up before her.
"…Remember what you see, don’t be afraid, you cannot be hurt, you are not alone, you are safe. Safe, little bird. It is not real, not yet, maybe not ever. Safe and warm, here with me...."

"The irradiated image matter of Shevchenko’s documentary offers a paradigmatic account of a material witness in which trace evidence of an external event — the nuclear accident at Chernobyl — is registered directly by changes in the material composition of the artifact, producing information that opens up the artifact to further analysis and critical reflection.
In the case of Shevchenko’s defective film stock, there can be no dispute that the radioactive isotopes released into the atmosphere by the reactor meltdown — at a magnitude 400 times greater than that of the atomic bomb over Hiroshima — were the source of the film’s contamination, and thus offered compelling evidence as to the scale and migrating nature of the disaster. Indeed, subsequent radiation readings also confirmed that all of his film equipment, including his Konvas and cherished Arriflex cameras, had been severely exposed, thus requiring their immediate decommissioning and disposal. Shevchenko himself died less than a year later, in March 1987."

"As all European countries, Italy is a safe country. Violent crime is low, and most tourists will never be bothered by safety concerns other that petty crime. It is ranked 34th on the ranking of world's safest countries."
The "Safe Streets" Operation started on 4th August 2008 on the national territory, after the promulgation of the Law n. 125 of the 24th July 2008 n.92; that law authorizes "the employment of a military contingent of the Armed Forces in specific and extraordinary circumstances to prevent criminality.

This is an Iveco LMV.
"Iveco LMV (Light Multirole Vehicle) is a 4WD tactical vehicle developed by Iveco, and in service with several countries."
"The LMV uses modular armour packs to adjust its level of protection to its mission requirements. In regards to mine protection, the vehicle's ground clearance has been increased to 493 mm without increasing the overall height (less than 2 meters); it also uses suspended seats of aeronautical derivation, v-hull under body, and a collapsible sandwich structure in the floor to deflect and absorb mine blasts. Its exhaust is piped through its C-pillars, and its turbocharger is located underneath the engine to reduce its thermal signature. Mobility is helped by a run-flat system, allowing the vehicle to move even with completely deflated tires."
As everyone settled into the place it was great to see Mums and Dads getting a chance for some quality time with their families.
