New Frontiers.
Recently we saw 'Green Peace activists try to scale a new Russian oil rig in the Artic sea. This is the beginning of new frontier for the oil industry globally, as the ice seas warms up for the fist time in 600 years.
This is nothing new, as the global hoaxers would want you to believe. With new technology man will be enabled to exploit the resources in Alaska, Canada, Danish Greenland, Norway and Russia.
When we come to think about the oil rig at sea, it is quite a feat of engineering achievement for a towed vessel. Much has been gleaned as to its design and its history in development, from the various disasters over the years in the North-sea and the Gulf of Mexico.
The rig must contain everything from drilling equipment to living accommodation and its own power plant, perhaps now it will also have support rigs for hospital and storage etc.
The winters will continue to freeze over, but the summers will have less ice for at least two hundred years.

Santas Sled.
Humans have followed Santa over the years and developed the sled for moving across ice, from dogs to reindeer. Meanwhile since the development of the petrol engine the sled is now motorized. The use of the sled is a daily means of transport mostly for the Eskimo and Evenki peoples living in the northern regions of Canada, Alaska, Russia, Norway, Greenland, and Iceland. But there are many aircraft and helicopters that have been adapted to take skis or sleds to work in this environment.
I wonder were the legends of Santa with his sled come from, perhaps from a Lapp style people, who pull their houses by reindeer on sleds in N-Russia. Santa's sled is much different from anything that we could invent, his sled has to move, fly at hypersonic speeds to deliver presents to an estimated two billion children world-wide in 24 hours. I think if you do get to see him this Christmas, you must really be very privileged. ''HAPPY CHRISTMAS.''
