Chernobyl article reflection

I read article NO. one, http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/743879.stm#top
The general gist of what it was about was how the radiation is taking so much longer than estimated to be absorbed back into the environment, and how the half-life is increasing in the radiation, and how the things they said would be ok to consume, won't be for another several years.
QUESTIONS: How long is the new half-life of the radiation?
How long was the previous half life?
How s the radiation being absorbed and passed up the food chain?
