Sun, 20 Nov 2011 11:40:02 +0100 (AP) - Street lights shine in the abandoned town of Iitate, northeastern Japan, outside the 20 kilometer exclusion zone around the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant Saturday, Nov. 19, 2011. Though the town lies outside the official exclusion zone, radiation levels were higher than some areas inside - forcing residents to evacuate months after the nuclear plant began leaking radiation. Experts say it may never be clear whether radiation from the plant causes increased cancer rates. (AP Photo/ Greg Baker)

Wed, 15 Jun 2011 09:50:01 +0200 (Reuters) - A book from a school in Bardejov, a town in northeastern Slovakia, is seen in this undated handout. Photographer Yuri Dojc and filmmaker Katya Krausova, both born to Holocaust survivors after the war, traveled from their respective homes in Toronto and London, to their parents' native country, Slovakia, to document what was left of a once vibrant Jewish community.
The photographs from those trips, seen first in the Slovak National Museum in Bratislava, form the exhibit "Last Folio" at the Museum of Jewish Heritage in New York City, which will run until August 9. The most striking photographs at the exhibition are of artifacts: books, prayer books, and Torah scrolls (religious texts written on parchment). To match Reuters Life!
