Børge Ousland( born 31 May 1962) is a Norwegian polar explorer, photographer and writer.
He was the first person in the world to do a solo crossing of the Antarctic.
He started his career as a Norwegian Navy Special Forces Officer with Marinejegerkommandoen, and he also spent several years working as a deep sea diver for the oil industry in the North Sea.
On 4 May 1990 Ousland and Erling Kagge became the first explorers ever to reach the North Pole unsupported, after a 58- day ski trek from Ellesmere Island in Canada, a distance of 800 km.
In 1994, he made the first solo and unsupported journey to the North Pole from Cape Arktichevsky in Russia.
Between 15 November 1996 and 17 January 1997 he became the first in the world to do an unsupported solo crossing of the Antarctic, 1,864 miles from the edge of the Ronne Ice Shelf to the edge of the Ross Ice Shelf.
The ski journey was made with kite assistance and also holds the record for the fastest unsupported journey to the South Pole taking just 34 days.
On 22 January 2006, together with Mike Horn he began a journey to the North Pole in full Arctic night, successfully concluded on 23 March.
In September 2010, Ousland's team aboard" The Northern Passage" completed the circumnavigation of the North Pole.
A Russian team aboard the" Peter I" achieved the same feat in that season.
These were the first recorded instances of the circumnavigation of the North Pole without an icebreaker.
In December 2011 he traversed Antarctica to the South Pole for the centennial celebration of the first expedition to reach the Pole.
Ousland married at the North Pole in 2012 having been flown in by helicopter with" 20 or 30 people".
Josée Auclair( born May 20, 1962 in Sherbrooke, Quebec) is a Canadian explorer.
She lives with her husband Richard Weber and their two sons, Tessum and Nansen, in the Outaouais region of Quebec, Canada.
Josée started cross-country skiing at the age of ten and began competing at fourteen.
She was a member of Canada's National Cross Country Ski Team and represented Canada at international championships, mostly in Sweden and Germany.
Between 1979 and 1982, she won four national titles in 5 km and 7.5 km competitions and, during her years at the University of Vermont, was a member of the relay team which won many honours.
On five occasions between 1999 and 2004, Josée skied to the North Pole as part of the" last degree expeditions" organised by Canadian Arctic Holidays, the Arctic expeditions and adventure company she operates with her husband.
She acted as the assistant- guide on four of these expeditions but in April 2001 she became expedition leader of the very first all- women team to ski to the North Pole from a Russian base.
In 2006, Josée was back in the expedition leader role for a group of 9 people heading from the North Pole to Ward Hunt Island at the northern tip of Ellesmere Island, Nunavut Canada.
On April 27, the group managed to reach latitude 88 50 ′.
However, bad ice conditions endangered their safety and they had to be evacuated and brought back to the Borneo drifting station.
In January 2007, Josée set foot in Antarctica for the very first time as a team of four women called upon her to be their expedition leader for a last degree expedition to the South Pole.
She is therefore the first Canadian woman to have guided expeditions at both poles.
Josée has traveled extensively in the Arctic since 1988 and has assisted her husband Richard and his partner Mikhail( Misha) Malakhov on several of their expeditions.
She has actively participated in preparing and outfitting four major expeditions to the North Pole.
Richard and Josée have over 20 years of experience and more than 45 Arctic expeditions to their credit( 13+ of them to the North Pole).
They are very well known across the Canadian Arctic, particularly in Nunavut.
They are leaders in tourism and specialists in North Pole and northern logistics.
The Weber- Auclair family also operates Arctic Watch, Canada's most northerly lodge located in Cunningham Inlet on Somerset Island in Nunavut.
Emperor of the North Pole is a 1973 American DeLuxe Color film directed by Robert Aldrich, starring Lee Marvin, Ernest Borgnine, and Keith Carradine.
It was later re-released on home media( and is more widely known) under the shorter title Emperor of the North, ostensibly chosen by studio executives to avoid being mistaken for a heartwarming holiday story.
This original title is an homage to the historic joke among Great Depression- era hobos that the world's best hobo was" Emperor of the North Pole", a way of poking fun at their own desperate situation, since somebody ruling over the North Pole would reign over nothing but a vast, barren, cold, empty, and stark wasteland.
The film depicts the story of two hobos' struggle( esp. vs." The Establishment") during the US' Great Depression in 1930s Oregon.
Its screenplay is quite significantly inspired by three separate, yet inter-related self- published seminal writings from earlier decades:
Jack London's better- known 1907 travel memoir," The Road", and, two lesser- known books, both by legendary hobo" A- No.- 1", pen-name of Leon Ray Livingston," The Trail of the Tramp", and his 1917 travelogue," From Coast to Coast with Jack London".
Carradine's character, Cigaret, uses the moniker that Jack London used during his hobo escapades, and like London, is portrayed as a young traveling companion to the older Livingston's A- No.- 1( played by Marvin), but that is where( some assert) the similarity between Carradine's character and Jack London ends, as Cigaret is portrayed in the film as immature, loud- mouthed, and not bright, opposite A- No.- 1's gracious and graceful seasoned veteran.
Robert Burgess Aldrich( August 9, 1918 – December 5, 1983) was an American film director, producer, and screenwriter.

Herschell Gordon Lewis( June 15, 1926 – September 26, 2016) was an American filmmaker, best known for creating the" splatter" subgenre of horror films.
He is often called the" Godfather of Gore"( a title also given to Lucio Fulci), though his film career included works in a range of exploitation film genres including juvenile delinquent films, nudie-cuties, two children's films and at least one rural comedy.
On Lewis' career, All Movie wrote," With his better- known gore films, Herschell Gordon Lewis was a pioneer, going farther than anyone else dared, probing the depths of disgust and discomfort onscreen with more bad taste and imagination than anyone of his era."
Dmitry Shparo( born August 23, 1941) is a Russian Arctic explorer and endurance skier.
He is internationally known for twice reaching the North Pole on snow skis.
In 1979, Shparo led the first ski expedition from Eurasia to the North Pole.
In 1988, he completed a full traverse across the Arctic Ocean from Russia to Canada via the North Pole.
In 1998, Shparo and his son, Matvey, became the first people in modern times to ski across the Bering Strait, from Russia into North America.
