Surviving Hiroshima : Keiko Ogura

Keiko Ogura

 Keiko Ogura was eight years old when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. She still lives in the city.
I wanted to go to school, but my father said 'I have a very strange feeling today - you shouldn't go to school, stay with us'.
That morning I was on the road near the house and all of a sudden I saw a flash of blueish white light - a magnesium-like flash and soon after a big sound with dust, and I was blown away and fell on the ground.
I found myself lying on the ground near the house. I thought the house was just in front of me but I couldn't see it because everything had become so dark and many pieces of wood and roof tiles and rubbish were falling on my head.

There was black rain falling... It smelled bad and there were many spots on my white blouse

And in the darkness there was a strong, strong wind like a typhoon. I couldn't open my eyes but tried to get back to my house and in the darkness I heard somebody was crying - my brother and sister.
I was 2.4km from the hypocentre but houses nearer the hypocentre had caught fire and were burning.
I saw long lines of refugees, just quiet, I don't know why they were so quiet. There were long lines, like ghosts.
Most of them were stretching out their arms because the skin was peeling off from the tips of their fingers. I could clearly see the hanging skin, peeling skin, and the wet red flesh and their hair was burned and smelled, the burnt hair smelled a lot.
And many people, just slowly passed by the front of my house.

Parched
All of a sudden a hand squeezed my ankle. I was so scared but they said 'get me water'. Almost all the people were just asking 'water', and 'help me'.

5 Ways to boost your Pizza game

Serious about crafting restaurant-caliber pizza on your home turf? Then you’ve probably already shunned the packaged shredded mozz for creamy balls of the fresh stuff. But that’s just the first step to a killer pie. Ensuring your pizza emerges from the oven with the vibrant sauce, airy but charred crust, and brilliantly creative toppings of the latest pizzerias is a lot harder than it looks. Fortunately, we tapped the pizza experts (aka pizzaioli) from some of the newest pizza destinations across the country for their expert advice.

Strategy #1: Go Thick, Go Low
At Marta, Danny Meyer’s latest New York project, inside the Martha Washington Hotel, Nick Anderer mans the wood-burning ovens that elicit paper thin, Roman-style pizzas. This technique is even more challenging to master in the civilian kitchen devoid of 600-degree ovens, but the ambitious should certainly try. “If the raw dough is too dry, it burns before getting crispy. Higher hydration allows for more time on the pizza stone without burning, and this extra time results in crispier crust,” he explains. “But the bitch of it is that working with high-hydration dough at home is tricky, usually because of the transfer to the oven.”
Instead, Anderer points out, consider the pan pizza, or thicker, focaccia-like pizza rustica: “You can cook it for a longer time, at a lower temperature—closer to 450 or 500 degrees. It won’t be like pizzeria pizza, but it will be crispy and delicious, albeit a touch thicker and doughier.” Just roll out the dough about twice as thick as usual, then bake in a well-oiled rimmed baking sheet instead of on a pizza peel.
