Nik sent me pictures of some really alarming and possibly hitherto unknown deep-sea life (12 photos in all, click through if you want to be terrified); I don't have any Russian, but J. was able to figure out that they had been washed up by the tsunami. We don't know why it says "from 10 to 50 years" at the end of the headline.

Update:

fake bi russian speaker reporting for duty! the article says it will take 10-50 years for the ocean to heal itself, more or less.

The Greater Roadrunner (Geococcyx californianus) has zygodactylic feet, leaving X-shaped tracks with ambiguous direction. The Pueblo and Hopi used the X symbol to mislead evil spirits. Border folklore in the early twentieth century held that a roadrunner would lead a lost traveler back to his path. In Mexico the roadrunner is known as paisano, countryman.
