<a href="http://polardiscovery.whoi.edu/">The Polar Discovery</a> team has documented science in action from pole to pole during the historic 2007-2009 International Polar Year, and <a href="http://polardiscovery.whoi.edu/live.html">covered five scientific expeditions</a>. The science projects explored a range of topics from climate change and glaciers, to Earth's geology, biology, ocean chemistry, circulation, and technology at the icy ends of the earth. Through <a href="http://polardiscovery.whoi.edu/expedition3/journal.html">photo essays</a> and <a href="http://polardiscovery.whoi.edu/multimedia.html">other multimedia</a>, they explain how scientists collected data and what they discovered about the rapidly changing polar regions. From the awesome folks at <a href="http://www.whoi.edu/">WHOI</a>.post:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.86511Mon, 09 Nov 2009 10:01:49 -0800netbrospolararticantarticwhoiwoodsholeoceanographicnorthpolesouthpolepenguinsrossislandclimateenvironmentscienceeducationlearninggeologybiologyoceanchemistryicegreenlandberingseaphotographyBy: Chocolate Pickle

And yet again, an expedition to the Antarctic manages to hide <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/At_the_mountains_of_madness">the truth</a>.comment:www.metafilter.com,2009:site.86511-2815292Mon, 09 Nov 2009 11:00:25 -0800Halloween JackBy: bugmuncher

¡°Why?¡± asked Larry, in his practical way. "Sergeant," admonished the Lieutenant, "you mustn't use such language to your men." "Yes," accorded Shorty; "we'll git some rations from camp by this evenin'. Cap will look out for that. Meanwhile, I'll take out two or three o' the boys on a scout into the country, to see if we can't pick up something to eat." Marvor, however, didn't seem satisfied. "The masters always speak truth," he said. "Is this what you tell me?" MRS. B.: Why are they let, then? My song is short. I am near the dead. So Albert's letter remained unanswered¡ªCaro felt that Reuben was unjust. She had grown very critical of him lately, and a smarting dislike coloured her [Pg 337]judgments. After all, it was he who had driven everybody to whatever it was that had disgraced him. He was to blame for Robert's theft, for Albert's treachery, for Richard's base dependence on the Bardons, for George's death, for Benjamin's disappearance, for Tilly's marriage, for Rose's elopement¡ªit was a heavy load, but Caro put the whole of it on Reuben's shoulders, and added, moreover, the tragedy of her own warped life. He was a tyrant, who sucked his children's blood, and cursed them when they succeeded in breaking free. "Tell my lord," said Calverley, "I will attend him instantly." HoME²Ô¾®¿Õ·¬ºÅѸÀ×Á´½Ó
