I'm going to North Pole to help out Santa this year.

Within 10 years it will be impossible to travel to the North Pole by dog team. There will be too much open water.

The North Pole will be ice-free during summer in years to come, and that itself will put the Arctic Sea basin on a very high risk of... environmental disasters that might be there.

As the earth spins through space, a view from above the North Pole would encompass most of the wealth of the world - most of its food, productive machines, doctors, engineers and teachers. A view from the opposite pole would encompass most of the world's poor.

I have bought pole vault equipment, the landing areas, posts, which costs a lot of money. We pay for coaches.

I'm not out here just for the money. I want to be a great player.

I'm not sure you can do anything quickly or easily with the North.

I'll play baseball for the Army or fight for it, whatever they want me to do.

The money is nice, but I am not in this game for the money.
