Palmi is the most experienced Arctic/Polar expedition guide I know.

Learn what to expect when traveling to Iceland in April. That includes road conditions, what to wear/pack, what makes it worth it to visit during this month, some tips on driving during this time, top activities, and events that happen annually during this month. Weather in Iceland in April April marks the transition from winter to spring in Iceland. The weather can be unpredictable, with varying temperatures and frequent changes. The average high temperature is 44 F (6.8 C), and the low temperature is 39 F (3 C).I always recommend that you pack layers and be prepared for sudden weather shifts, including rain, snow, wind, and occasional sunshine. Daylight Hours One of the major advantages of visiting Iceland in April is the lengthening of daylight hours. During the early part of the month, you can enjoy approximately:April 1st – 13 hours and 31 minutesOn April 15th there are 15 hours and 03 minutesApril 30th - 16 hours and 43 minutes Road Conditions & Driving in Iceland Because April is a transitional month road conditions can vary. While main roads are generally accessible, some secondary roads in remote areas may still be closed or have limited access due to lingering snow and ice.It's crucial to stay updated on road conditions and weather forecasts by checking reliable sources like the Icelandic Road and Coastal Administration's website. If you plan on driving, renting a 4x4 vehicle with studded winter tires is recommended for added safety.

What to Wear in Iceland in April To stay comfortable during your visit in April, it's essential to dress in layers. Start with a base layer of thermal clothing, followed by a sweater or fleece, and top it off with a waterproof and windproof outer layer. Don't forget to bring a hat, gloves, and a sturdy pair of waterproof boots for outdoor activities. It's also wise to have a waterproof backpack to protect your belongings from unexpected showers.If you want more specific help with what to pack, grab my FREE ultimate packing checklist for Iceland. Why You Should Visit Iceland in April April offers a unique blend of winter and spring experiences.

“The goal is net zero, which is a balance between the emissions we put into the air and the emissions we take out….We have solutions and…it's not that the technologies don't work, it's not that we don't know how to use them. It's because  we haven't made the choice to actually use them at the size and scale that we need to, as quickly as we want to, to avoid all these really terrible, terrible impacts of a changing climate.” Melissa Lott on Electric Ladies Podcast An extraordinary new Nova documentary on PBS hosted by veteran science journalist Miles O'Brien gives a deep dive into what “carbon zero” actually means – in plain English for us non-scientists – and how we can get there in time to save the planet and our lifestyle. How? Listen to Melissa Lott, Director of Research at the Center for Global Energy Policy at Columbia University, and the lead scientists in the documentary, explain it in ways we can all understand in this fascinating discussion with Electric Ladies host Joan Michelson.  You'll hear about: What carbon zero really is – and how to get there The impact of the new trifecta of federal legislation – the Inflation Reduction Act, the Infrastructure Investment Act and the CHIPS and Science Act. Where we get our electricity from today and what has to change to eliminate emissions The impact on each industry – in ways that may surprise you Plus, insightful career advice, such as… “Create your path because it probably hasn't been created before. And follow your passions and the things you want to contribute to…At the end of the day….it's about understanding where you want to have impact and then creating the path forward….When I started in this work, the thing I do now did not exist. It didn't, now it does. And I'm so glad that I positioned myself to be able to do the work that I do today because it speaks to me on many, many levels and it brings together different pieces of me, and it's a way that I can contribute.

Sharon and Doug Wildeboer are a close couple, used to spending time together and both ride their own motorcycles. Doug is the original motorcyclist of the two and it was his idea to travel by motorcycle in Iceland and through Europe. Sharon is a skilled rider but she describes herself as a reluctant rider although a lover of travel. Being a reluctant rider can mean a lot of stress for Sharon, which for Doug may be difficult to recognize since he's not feeling that. But that isn't the only challenge that Sharon and Doug have had to work through on their trip. Before they left they had saved money and rented their house out with the plan being to work remotely on the road. And so far they've been able to keep their trip, in their words, cost-neutral. So, travel by motorcycle, on the cheap and work on the road. How they've managed to do that and more, on this episode.

Snorri Sturluson, the great Icelandic poet and historian and lawspeaker of the Althing, got involved in Norwegian/Icelandic politics, and it ended very badly. For him, for one thing, as the king of Norway arranged for 70 men to stab Snorri in his basement, and for Iceland, which devolved into chieftain battles and eventually unified with Norway and the Norwegian king became the boss of everything. The Althing still exists, though, and Iceland is independent now, and Snorri is one of the most influential poets of the early middle ages. We explain all this. Anne still wonders why you need 70 people to stab somebody in his basement, and Michelle is shocked, shocked, I tell you, that there isn't any historical fiction about all this, though she is slightly mollified by the fact that there is now a Snorri ap, for Android and IOS. Well, then.

The Earth Transformed: An Untold History by Peter Frankopan https://amzn.to/3M5n5Qk A MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF THE YEAR: A revolutionary new history that reveals how climate change has dramatically shaped the development—and demise—of civilizations across time *Detailing many years of extensive research, endnotes for this edition run to more than 200 pages. They are available online via a link contained in the book.* Global warming is one of the greatest dangers mankind faces today. Even as temperatures increase, sea levels rise, and natural disasters escalate, our current environmental crisis feels difficult to predict and understand. But climate change and its effects on us are not new. In a bold narrative that spans centuries and continents, Peter Frankopan argues that nature has always played a fundamental role in the writing of history. From the fall of the Moche civilization in South America that came about because of the cyclical pressures of El Niño to volcanic eruptions in Iceland that affected Egypt and helped bring the Ottoman empire to its knees, climate change and its influences have always been with us. Frankopan explains how the Vikings emerged thanks to catastrophic crop failure, why the roots of regime change in eleventh-century Baghdad lay in the collapse of cotton prices resulting from unusual climate patterns, and why the western expansion of the frontiers in North America was directly affected by solar flare activity in the eighteenth century. Again and again, Frankopan shows that when past empires have failed to act sustainably, they have been met with catastrophe. Blending brilliant historical writing and cutting-edge scientific research, The Earth Transformed will radically reframe the way we look at the world and our future.

Lily2023年的爱情运势呢？Bella: That sounds like it makes sense. See what's going on currently with the planets. Oh, there'll be plenty of opportunities for love for you. Plenty. But they might not come right away, to be honest. You might have to wait a little bit. Let's see, you might have to wait a little bit. I think now you're really focused on, so when Capricorn season starts, you are gonna be shining. You're gonna be the best version of yourself. You're gonna be glowing because all the planets are moving into your first house of self. You're gonna have Venus there. So you're gonna look more beautiful. You're gonna be more radiant than ever. People are gonna be drawn to you. So this could be a good time for flirtation, for putting yourself out there for having fun. People will be very drawn to you and magnetized to you. So it could be a good thing.这听起来很有道理。查看行星当前正在发生的事情。哦，你会有很多爱的机会。很多。但老实说，他们可能不会马上来。 你可能需要稍等片刻。让我们看看，你可能需要稍等片刻。我想现在你真的很专注，所以当摩羯座季节开始时，你会发光。 你会成为最好的自己。 你会发光，因为所有的行星都在进入你的第一宫。 你会在那里有金星守护。 所以你会看起来更漂亮。你会比以往任何时候都更加容光焕发。人们会被你吸引。因此，这可能是调情的好时机，让自己尽情享受乐趣。 人们会被你深深吸引。 所以这可能是一件好事。But I would say that now you are gonna be focused on your business, very much so. You may have had… you may have felt like money wasn't flowing as easily as maybe you would want it to, or maybe as easily as it was in a pastime that's gonna change next year because you had something blocking your money house, which was kind of frustrating for you. So maybe you weren't getting cash flow as easily. But once this Saturn leaves your house of wealth, you're gonna start to see more abundance in your life, more success. You're gonna also wanna be thinking about putting down roots somewhere. Do you think that you're gonna keep traveling for a while? Or are you focusing on maybe staying in one place?但我要说的是，现在你将专注于你的事业。你可能有过这样的经历，你可能觉得钱不像你希望的那样容易流动，或者可能像过去一样容易流动，明年（2023年）会改变，因为你有一些东西阻碍了你的金钱宫，这让你有点沮丧。所以也许你没有那么容易地获得现金流。但是一旦土星离开你的财富宫，你就会开始看到你的生活更加丰富，更加成功。你也会想在某个地方扎根。 你认为你会继续旅行一段时间吗？ 还是你专注于待在一个地方？Lily: I'm going to travel. Yeah. Oh, I have listed all the countries that I want to travel next year already.我要去旅行。 是的。 哦，我已经把明年想去的国家都列出来了。Bella: Really? Oh, what are they? 真的吗？是哪些呢？Lily: Five, six countries in Asia. So I'm leaving Guatemala before Christmas. So I'm going back to Iceland for a couple days, hanging out with my friends, celebrating Christmas. And then I will go to Japan. And from Japan, three months in Japan, probably one or two months in Korea. I want to move down to Vietnam, probably Thailand a little bit. I heard it's a great place for digital nomads. And then mm-hmm , go to Indonesia, maybe visit the Philippines, maybe go to India.亚洲五或六国。 所以我要在圣诞节前离开危地马拉。 所以我要回冰岛几天，和我的朋友出去玩，庆祝圣诞节。 然后我会去日本。 而来自日本，在日本三个月，在韩国大概一两个月。 我想搬到越南，可能是泰国。 我听说这是数字游牧的好地方。 然后去印尼，也许拜访菲律宾，或者去印度。Bella: Well maybe I'll join you in one of these places. That sounds amazing. Oh wait, I just saw something. Okay. In May of next year. Can you wait that long? Yes. You have Jupiter moving into your fifth house of love and romance and Jupiter. Woohoo. Yes. Jupiter is the planet of expansion, of luck, abundance. You're gonna feel very flirty. You're gonna wanna have a lot of fun. This is the perfect time to go out to date. That's the best time for love when Jupiter's in the fifth house. So that's gonna happen around May. If you can wait six more months, I mean it could happen before, but then there's gonna be a very strong potential for it. This is gonna be a great time.好吧，也许我会在这些地方之一加入你，听起来很棒。 哦，等等，我刚刚看到了什么。 好的。 明年（2023年）五月。 你能等那么久吗？你有木星进入你的第五宫爱情和浪漫和木星。 哇哦。 是的。 木星是扩张、幸运、丰富的行星。 你会觉得春天来了。 你会想玩得很开心的。 这是约会的最佳时机。 当木星在第五宫时，这是爱情的最佳时机。 所以这将在五月左右发生。 如果你能再等六个月，我的意思是它可能会在之前发生，但之后会有非常强大的潜力。 这将是一段美好的时光。Lily: And I think so too. I think so too. I probably need a couple months to heal from the last one. I think May I will be very ready.我也这么认为。 我也这么认为。 我可能需要几个月的时间才能从上一次痊愈。 我想我会做好准备的。Bella: Oh yeah, no, it's really good that you're taking time in between relationships to heal, to kind of reflect on what you've learned. Because a lot of people just jump from one relationship to the next. And that's not the healthiest thing because you didn't really go over what you just learned and see how you've grown. And you just bring the problems from the old relationship to the new relationship without working on them in between. So I don't think that's the best way to handle it, but a lot of people do. So what can I say? 哦，是的，在情感关系之间花时间治愈自己，反思你所学到的东西，这真的很好。因为很多人只是从一种关系跳到另一种关系。 这不是最健康的事情，因为你并没有真正复习你刚刚学到的东西，也没有看到你是如何成长的。 而你只是把旧关系中的问题带到新关系中，而不在两者之间进行处理。所以我认为这不是处理它的最佳方式，但很多人都这样做。但除了无奈又能说什么呢？Lily: Exactly! I did that in my past. I'm not very proud of that. And now I just feel like, yeah, I need to change the approach, give myself enough time to process the feelings. And I think everybody has their own timing. It's not necessary to hurry. I hate when people saying that, oh, just get onto (under) the next one. Forget about the last one. And I know it wouldn't work for me. It's probably you would feel a little bit better at that time, but then afterwards you still feel like, ah, I still have a lot of shit to work on.确切地！ 我过去就是这样做的。 我对此并不感到自豪。 现在我只是觉得，是的，我需要改变方法，给自己足够的时间来处理这些感受。 我认为每个人都有自己的时机。 没必要着急。 我讨厌人们这么说，哦，忘记上一个的最好方式，就是继续下一个。我知道这对我不起作用。 可能那个时候你会觉得好一点，但是后来你还是觉得，啊，我还有很多个人的问题要处理。单词记忆：opportunities 机会 | opportunity 机会（单数）glowing 容光焕发的 ｜glow 发光radiant 发光magnetize 有磁性/力吸引 ｜magnetized 有吸引力的put down roots 定居list 列出、清单 ｜我的睡衣上的标语：Amazing in Bed 在床上很厉害 I can sleep for days (因为我可以睡好几天）、You're on my to-do list 你在我的待办事项上digital nomad 数字游民 ｜online entrepreneur 线上创业家 location-independant heal 疗愈 ｜heel 脚跟handle 处理approach 方法Bella 她的IG是：https://www.instagram.com/astrobellaluna/Email: Astrobellaluna@gmail.com加入5月22日开营的第三期迷你退休营：https://flywithlily.com/discover 或加主播微信：iflywithlily 验证消息：报名）我的IG/FB：flywithlily我的微信号：iflywithlily验证消息：祝福

As we add items officially, we'll include them in the descriptions of the different levels, but there's a pretty good explainer here that outlines what we're trying to do. After a brief description of the membership levels, we dive into what a crazy month awaits the Lions, starting tomorrow night at CF Montreal. This month is a vital one in Orlando City's fortunes in 2023, with several key Eastern Conference matches and the start of the Lions' participation in the 2023 U.S. Open Cup. We're delighted to bring you our exclusive interview with Orlando City midfielder Dagur Dan Thorhallsson, as the Iceland native joined us to answer a lot of questions and probably more from our Founders than from us, if we go back and count. Dagur Dan was a great guest and — you heard it here first — he loves the mailbagbox! Speaking of that mailbagbox, it was devoid of your questions this week but hopefully we can answer anything you ask us next time. Finally, we previewed Orlando City at CF Montreal, including our key matchups and score predictions for Saturday's match. Stay safe and enjoy the show! Here's how No. 341 went down: 0:15 – Our new TML membership program is up and running and May is a month that can make or break Orlando City's 2023 season. 25:40 – Dagur Dan jumps on with us and the Icelandic midfielder answers a ton of questions — ours and yours. 42:07 – Our mailbagbox was empty, but we're bringing you our key matchups and score predictions for Orlando City at CF Montrea Learn more about your ad choices.

To prevent global warming, we need to drastically reduce pollution. After that, we need to trap as much excess carbon dioxide from the air as possible. Enter Orca, the world's first large-scale direct air capture and storage plant, built in Iceland by the team at Climeworks, led by climate entrepreneur Jan Wurzbacher. With affordability and scalability in mind, Wurzbacher shares his vision for what comes after Orca, the future of carbon removal tech -- and why these innovations are crucial to stop climate change. After the talk, Sherrell shares examples of trailblazing companies and researchers that are supporting the shift towards less pollution by using tech to turn CO2 into soil nutrients and make eco-friendly gasoline.

When Payson McElveen rode across Iceland in a single pull a few years ago, he found something in that effort that's not present in his racing career and immediately knew he wanted to follow it up with something in the same vein. So he dusted off his globe, and after an immense amount of planning, he put together a monster route across Tasmania, spanning 360 miles and nearly 35,000 feet of climbing — most of it on dirt — and set out to ride the whole thing straight through. And while the physical effort to do so was immense, Payson does an incredible job of telling the story through the lens of self-discovery and finding something different in this form of cycling than what he gets out of racing.TOPICS & TIMES:Recent race results & changing approaches (3:51)“Crossing Iceland” & The follow-up, “Crossing Tasmania” (6:37)Emma Flukes & local knowledge (11:44)Planning the route (18:03)Scouting and pre-riding (29:23)The ride (32:10)Racing mentality & switching that off (36:33)Payson's takeaways from the ride (45:50)RELATED LINKS:BLISTER+Become a Blister MemberBlister LabsThis Week's Gear GiveawayBlister Mountain Bike Buyer's GuideOUR OTHER PODCASTSOff The CouchGEAR:30Blister PodcastCRAFTEDHappy Hour Hosted on Acast.

Finland, Norway, and now Iceland - we're working our way back to this side of the pond, but not before visiting one of the most unique distilleries (and products) I've ever come across.  Eimverk Distillery is also known unofficially as Floki Distillery, named for the eponymous single malts that showcase both Icelandic barley and an Icelandic smoking tradition that can sound like a gimmick until you learn more.  I'm here to tell you: yes, I tried the Floki Sheep Dung Smoked Single Malt, and no, it's not a gimmick (it also doesn't taste like dung, thankfully). There will be more in the review, but suffice to say here that it relies on a centuries-old smoking/preserving tradition in Iceland and is 100% authentic.  Eimverk prides itself on being eco-friendly, using biofuels whenever possible and harnessing the immense geothermal heat beneath the island. They also have easily one of the most intense barley flavors I've had. It forces you to recognize that this is different, that this barley has survived harsh conditions and come out stronger for it.  This is seriously good whisky, folks, and deserves your attention. Thank you to Eva-Maria for a fantastic conversation about all things Iceland.  _________________ Before we jump into the interview just a few quick notes: If you haven't joined the Patreon community yet, please consider doing so! Only 4 Spots Remain in the Barrel Club.

As we see an increasing number of culturally diverse patients in our US-based practices or on the mission field, our understanding of cultural influences in healthcare and our own biases is essential. How can we develop an eye to see where a patient’s values and worldview may differ from our own? We will review an approach to cultural humility highlighted by medical missions case studies.

Described as a “rambunctious child,” David Moscow started his acting career reading sides for ‘Stand By Me.' While he wasn't cast in this major film, in his second role, he was cast as Young Josh in the movie 'Big' (Older Josh, of course, played by Tom Hanks). Beyond his acting career, David found a passion around food. The series, From Scratch, “…follows actor, adventurer and urbanite David Moscow on his adventure of making meals from scratch. He teams up with various friends to hunt, gather, forage, fish, grow and then prepare and cook a meal.” The book by the same name is an effort to help us reconnect with food that sustains our lives along with “experiences taking place in over twenty countries that include milking a water buffalo to make mozzarella for pizza in Italy; harvesting oysters in Long Island Sound and honey from wild bees in Kenya; and making patis in the Philippines, beer in Malta, and sea salt in Iceland.” In this wide-ranging interview, the writers talk about producing ‘In The Heights' from an unknown Lin-Manuel Miranda, creating digital ads for Bernie Sanders, the realities of making ‘From Scratch,' making coconut moonshine, how the father-son co-wrote the book together, the problems with a physical distance in food production, and how to make career shifts based on your skillset.

Summary David Cattler (Twitter; LinkedIn) joins Andrew (Twitter; LinkedIn) to discuss NATO's intelligence response to the ongoing war in Ukraine. David currently serves as NATO's Assistant Secretary General for Intelligence and Security.  What You'll Learn Intelligence Intelligence & NATO NATO's response to the war in Ukraine How NATO is adapting to evolving technologies NATO's purpose and mission Reflections Support and trust between nations  Global collaboration And much, much more … Episode Notes Last February, SpyCast brought you an episode featuring David Cattler, focused on his role as NATO's Assistant Secretary General for Intelligence and Security. Only a few weeks after that episode was published, Russia invaded the Ukraine on February 24th, 2022, catalyzing the first war on European soil since World War II. Only three weeks ago, NATO gained their newest member of the alliance, Finland, with the hopes of ratifying Sweden's membership soon.  This week, we bring David back on to discuss how his position has evolved and changed alongside the war in Ukraine, and how NATO is responding to the ongoing crisis. What impact does the inclusion of Finland (and hopefully Sweden) make on the European continent? Tune in to find out more.  And…  With Finland's recent membership, NATO is currently comprised of 31 independent nations. Out of these 30, only one member state doesn't have a standing army – Can you guess which? Hint: It's Iceland!  Quotes of the Week "It's not just about Ukraine. It really is about what kind of world we all want to live in. There are rules and the rules really do establish that nations of people have rights to be free. To make decisions for themselves, to be sovereign, to be safe within their own borders. To be free from harm and certainly free from being threatened in the way that we've seen here." – David Cattler.

Weighing options for cruises and visiting Iceland makes the long days and long work weeks a little easier. Rheannon got in her last fishing trip before the baby comes. Two fish were caught and released, so the fishing season has begun. Tamara has a couple tv show recommendations for Rheannon, and one is a musical.

“At ON Power, we operate three power plants… and combined we produce just under 20% of the energy produced in Iceland…. We are removing carbon from our operations. So… there are low emissions associated with the production ther, from our operations. There's around seven grams of CO2 per produced kilowatt hour, compared to 800, if you produce the electricity using coal.”…Plus, we have been operating a carbon removal station, since then, mineralizing and removing from the atmosphere just over 10,000 tons (of emissions) a year.”  Begga Olafsdottir on Electric Ladies Podcast To expand on a CBS News' “60 Minutes” segment this past weekend on how Iceland is capturing CO2 and storing it underground, here is a replay of an in-depth interview I did in Iceland last year about this issue, and how this small Arctic country became an 85% renewable energy economy. Listen to this fascinating interview, live in Reykjavik, Iceland, with  Berglind “Begga” Olafdottir, CEO of ON Power , with Electric Ladies Podcast host Joan Michelson. ON Power operates the largest geothermal plant in the country, which produces 20% of the total energy Iceland produces. It's also partnering with its sister company Carbfix to remove CO2 from the air. You'll hear: How ON Power captures the CO2 it emits and mineralizes it. How ON Power is partnering with its sister company Carbfix and with Climeworks to bring ground-breaking technology to market that captures CO2 from the air. not just their own emissions. About their business parks that only take tenants that can share products and byproducts of other tenants, creating a circular economy in each park. How geothermal energy works in Iceland. Plus, great career advice....such as: “Women, we have a tendency of underestimating ourselves in general, and I think my advice would be that, if you're mid- career and you want to take a step up in the corporate ladder…I think it's important for women not to discount their experience and the knowledge. Try to be a bit bold. If you're applying for something that is advertised, don't not submit the application because you don't check all the boxes, because people are also hired on potential….and you might be the right person.” Berglind “Begga” Olafsdottir on Electric Ladies Podcast You'll also like: Halla Hrund Logadottir, Director-General, Iceland's National Energy Authority, on how the country has become 85% renewable energy.

You've probably heard of the famous, ancient lifting stones in Iceland and Scotland, some of which are even replicated and used in strongman competitions. But did you know that over 20 stones (and still counting) have been uncovered just in the last few years in Ireland, many of them heavier than the stones in Iceland and Scotland, by primarily one man? That man, Kettlebell Sport World Champion and amateur historian David Keohan (affectionately called “Indiana Stones”) joins us in this episode to discuss the incredible stories of how these stones were unearthed. You'll hear about these ancient stones and their rich cultural significance and connections to mythology. While we often think of history as something in the past, when you tune in you'll learn how some history is still being uncovered in real time!
