<br> Environmentalists have long criticised crypto mining as an energy hog that consumes fossil fuels in order for specialised and power-hungry computers to continue minting digital currency. You can be assured that only the amount spent on your order will be debited from your account. A stroke, cancer, heart attack or major car accidents can cause extremely high medical bills,” explains Dwain Phelps, founder & CEO of Phelps Financial Group in Kennesaw, Georgia. “There are expenses that your insurance will cover and expenses that your insurance will not cover, which become your responsibility. If you are setting the server configuration in your Haskell code, you need to make sure that you set a value for all five of the SSL config fields. In 2014, IceCuber Dag Larsen was the first Norwegian to winter–rather surprising considering that the first five Polie visitors who returned home to tell the tale were Norwegians. Laser scientist Ashraf El-Dakrouri, who wintered in 2000, was the first Egyptian (and the first person from any Arab or Muslim nation) to winter at Pole (profile article from the 16 January 2000 Antarctic Sun). All of course in Antarctica, and of course all of Rex’s winters have been south of the Antarctic Circle.<br>
<br> From a bit south of Sweden in the Low Countries, there have been two Belgians–Freija Descamps, one of the 2011 IceCube observers, and Jean-Marie Moreau, the 1990 doctor. At one time, he and the late Johan Booth (alas, Johan passed away from cancer on 29 June 2022 obituary) were tied for 20 winters. And at Pole, Johan Booth also had his 16th winter in 2016, none of which have been at McMurdo. In 2013, Ice Cube team member Felipe Pedreros Bustos was the first Chilean to winter at Pole, something a bit surprising given Chile’s extensive involvement in the Antarctic over the years. Three managers during the civilian era were last-minute replacements–Dan Morton in 1976, Rich Wiik in 1983, and Dennis O’Neill in 1991. Rich and Dennis had been at Pole, scheduled to winter in other positions, but Dan had NOT worked at Pole and was not originally scheduled to winter until 1977. All 3 guys are friends of mine and did well.<br>
<br> Angela wintered again in 2017, so the two women Wendy and Angela are still tied at 15 winters. The first Kiwi men were met observers Barry Porter and Bernie Maguire in 1976, and the first NZ women were carpenters Kate Batten and Vicky Ward in 2005 (the complete list of 27 New Zealanders). As of 2016 the undisputed record holder for women was Wendy Kober who had her 15th winter that year. Roopesh Ojha, a citizen of the Republic of India who wintered with CARA/ASTRO in 1999. Also there with him that year was science tech Reza Mossadeque (of Indian and Bangladeshi origin, although he was an American citizen when he wintered). GFAs who was with us in 1976-77, the late Dave Pluth, turned up at our 2007 Pole Soul reunion in Boulder to tell us that he’d become a Swiss citizen. And from an emerald island next to the UK it seems 2010 winter site manager Mel MacMahon claims both Irish and Canadian heritage, and 1990 CUSP associate Richard Collins was an Irish citizen. 2010 (and 2011 and 2012) brought Ricardo Lopez, the first Polie originally from the Dominican Republic, and 2005 featured the first Jamaican, fellow winterover and HR person Kurt Montas.<br>
<br> 2012 brought the the third person from Spain to winter–Carlos Pobes was one of the two IceCube scientists. From elsewhere in Europe, note that 2012 cook Kate McGrew was the first Pole to winter at Pole (!) From a bit south of there, Monique Gerbex, the 2003 work order planner, hailed from Switzerland. 2015 saw the first winterover Thai–met person Supria Calvert-Reisner–as well as the first Iraqi–facilities engineer Nizar Hashemi. 2022 winterovers with nationalities other than American this year–the two IceCube grantees mentioned above–Mareno Baricevic (from Italy) and Celas Marie-Sainte (from France), Kiwi folks Sarah Boukoms–safety technician with dual citizenship and heavy equipment tech Anthony Barge who is employed by NZ equipment dealer Terra Cat, satcom engineer Hector Plaza–the first winterover from Colombia, power plant lead Seva Kotlyar who was born in Russia, and sous chef Niko Winegarner from Sweden. From the UK I believe we have had fifteen winterovers (which includes a couple of folks with dual NZ/British citizenship), the most recent one wintered in 2021–IceCube researcher Joshua Veitch-Michaelis (list of British citizens). Speaking of winterovers from Sweden, there now are five–in 2022 sous chef Niko Winegarner is wintering. If there’s anything to take away, it’s that the vision is there and we are moving towards the right direction.<br> -
