For a while this will be focused on my trips to the South Pole to work on ARA and IceCube experiments as a physicist and instrumentation scientist from the Wisconsin IceCube Particle Astrophysics Center at the University of Wisconsin. Here Dr. DuVernois will ponder the world, the web, and all things in the middle. If that isn't a noble enough project, I'll also post interesting links. This web journal is held in lieu of a writing journal and continues my UMN, MySpace, and Facebook blogs.

Expeditions to Pole for this 100th anniversary season
For the 100th anniversary of the Amundsen and Scott expedition race to the South Pole.
Also found this specific to Norwegian commemorations of the 100th anniversary.
Here's some notes from an NSF person pulling together items for the anniversary.
There's a British Army effort in honor of Scott's failed expedition.
And a Norwegian Expedition currently enroute towards the Pole.
