The message, dated today, and relayed by A. A. Collins of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, related that "In a walrus hunt yesterday, three members of the Peary crew, in a Bowdoin…

She called the parrot John Martinue, and daydreamed at the window while the bird sat on the sill, watching with her.

Here, there were no photographs of her husband Tom, who’d built the place, theirs once, but pictures of Martinue, who’d rented it from them and died. A compact man in lederhosen with a waxed mustache, leaning on an ice pick. Here he was with the hood of his parka drawn back and a glacier behind him. Here, on the hall wall, he sat in formal attire, his black eyes following Liberty when she passed. 

Because she lived among his accumulations during the day, the explorer came into her dreams and made love at night. She woke in ecstasy, and the stirrings lasted into the morning, if the reason for them didn’t. In some peculiar ways, she was happier than she’d ever been in her ordinary years.

When his parrot, the spirit of the place, said “Be utiful,” she replied, yes, she would be…utiful. It meant to stay within grasp, to sit at her baby grand piano, an extravagant wedding gift from Tom that had stayed with the place, painfully out of tune. 

What she didn’t forget were her songs. Her memories were held in the ritual of her muscles, her vocal cords were lined with lyrics, the tendons of her fingers knowing which note came next on the keyboard. She steadied her hands, her voice, whispery. Don’t change a hair for me. Not if you care for me, she sang. Utiful.

Good Sunday, WIPSnippers. This, from the novel of the lost boy, back to being called Gabriel. (Recently, An Inconvenient Wind. Sigh. Still in title quest.)

African youth eligible to join North Pole expedition LILLIAN BERESFORD Pupils between the ages of 14 to 16 from Namibia, South Africa, and Ghana are among those invited to compete for the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to join a scientific expedition to the North Pole. Applicants from 20 countries around the globe will be selected for an international expedition team to the Arctic, as part of the ‘Icebreaker of Knowledge’ programme. Those chosen will board the nuclear icebreaker ‘50 Let Pobedy’ (50 Years of Victory) operated by Rosatom. Applicants stand the chance to be among the first representatives of their country to reach the North Pole. “The ‘Icebreaker of Knowledge’ project gives young people in Africa a platform to show their potential on a global stage. Science knows no borders, and the Arctic expedition is a unique chance to meet peers from different countries, work together on real scientific challenges, and see first-hand how innovation is shaping the world’s future. We encourage pupils from Ghana, South Africa, Namibia, and across the continent to seize this opportunity,” explains Ryan Collier, chief executive of Rosatom central and southern Africa. This year marks the sixth edition of this project, and will coincide with the 500th anniversary of the Northern Sea Route. It is organised by the Nuclear Industry Information Centres with the support of Rosatom, a leading company in the field of nuclear development. The post African youth eligible to join North Pole expedition appeared first on The Namibian.

Stromness, Orkney Islands. A final watering stop for many a ship headed to points west including the North American Arctic. This is a plaque over the old well; I would not have minded a sip. #Arctic #ArcticExploration #FranklinExpedition #HudsonBayCompany
