ANTARCTICA - 27 September 2002
The Racer Rock weather station is located on a small outcrop of land approximately 150 miles from Palmer Station near the northern tip of Two Hummock Island on the Antarctic Peninsula. It is one of five remote weather stations on the peninsula that monitor wind, temperature, pressure, humidity and sea temperature. The data is sent to US researchers via satellite. Due to the station's isolated location, it is not often that conditions are conducive to landings by zodiac boat. Sea ice can block a route into the station -- Picture by Jeff Kietzmann NSF (FOTO:DUKAS/TOPFOTO)

OXFORD IN THE AIR WAR - EVACUEES TAKE PLACE OF STUDENTS IN UNIVERSITY CITY
Oxford, once quiet and sedate seat of learning, has taken on an unfamiliar aspect since the intensification of the air war, for it is now a city of refuge for many thousands of mothers and children from the bombed areas of London. Though some of the colleges of the University have been closed and many of the undergraduates are in the Forces, there are few vacant rooms to be found in the town. The houses where students formerly lived are occupied by evacuees. The pavements of the main street are crammed as never before with pedestrians, restaurants and eating houses are packed with customers at all times of the day, and the cinemas are gratified by the eager patronage of exiled Londoners.
Despite the changed face of the town, however, the past is still represented by undergraduates from the colleges which have remained open as they stroll or cycle through the streets.
