Extreme Cities
A unique documentary TV series (4x52min.) Iakutsk, Cherrapunji, Hammerfest, La Paz... these are the cities that top the charts. They struggle doggedly against the toughest environmental conditions on our planet to provide their populations with an acceptable level of existence. These cities persist and continue flourishing in places where normally only traditional villages would be expected to survive. With a temperature of 50 degrees below zero, or the most horrendous monsoons in the world, or an altitude close to that of Mont Blanc, or a latitude where the sun disappears for more than three months... in these inhospitable locales, tens of thousands of people live, work, study, seek amusement, and sometimes fall sick because of their environment. These cities, with the extreme adaptations they impose on their populations and the scientific and technical innovations necessary to maintain their infrastructures, are in effect open-sky laboratories on an urban scale. Armies of scientists study these people and their cultures, mining them for information on the settlement and development of human colonies in the most challenging environments imaginable. These cities are true guinea-pigs. What the urban environments presented here all have in common is rapid demographic change, and at the same time a significant degradation of their geographic and climatic realities. Since their founding, their survival has always been an exercise in tightrope walking. But today the balance is <b>...</b>

October 24, 2010 12:18 pm Yakutsk time Today we walked to the church. Before we left, we had to make sure we were dressed warm enough. Baby Olga (my niece) looked like an Eskimo doll all bundled up. Malcolm reminded me of the little brother from the movie "Christmas Story" that could barely move due to all the layers of clothing. Today is a warm day for Yakutsk it is merely 7 degrees Farenheit. Keep in mind that it is only October and that we will be here until the end of November. It will get much colder before we leave. When we return in December, Oregon will seem like a tropical paradise.

UFO sighting reports. Yakutsk Russia 2011
fa.vorites.com Air traffic controllers in Siberia claim they were buzzed by a high-speed UFO with a female sounding alien who spoke in an unintelligible cat-like language. The mystery object suddenly burst onto flight monitors over the remote Russian diamond capital of Yakutsk. It was shown flying at a speed of slightly over 6000 mph, and rapidly changing direction in the early morning sky, it is claimed. The UFO was logged at a height of 64, 895 feet above sea level and appeared to interfere with aviation frequencies. On footage posted on You Tube, an air traffic controller made clear he sought to make contact with the UFO.

Hachiko from Yakutsk: A dog's loyalty in minus 50 degrees Celsius
For several weeks, a dog from Yakutia named Hachiko has remained beside the lifeless body of another dog, his female friend, in minus 50 degree weather. The dog has been celebrated as a true hero on Internet forums. Moved by the dog's loyalty, locals have been feeding him every day and have even decided to build him a warm doghouse. The dog was named Hachiko in honor of a famous Japanese dog whose owner died of a heart attack. Every day for seven years the dog would go to the train station to greet his owner, and every day he would leave alone.

Ysyakh festival: Yakutsk, Russia
The Sakha people in the Sakha Republic of the Russian Far East hold this amazing traditional festival during 'white nights' -- greeting the moon, with some liquor, in the middle of the night. I've attended twice. In 2005, I was apparently one of two non-Sakha there. Then in June 2008, I recorded this Jews harp concert, some swimming and some traditional dance. Well worth going out of your way to attend. More: www.reidontravel.com
