Ann Bancroft: the first woman to reach the North Pole on foot* in 1986 (dog-assisted). • 1993: First woman to reach both the North & South Poles on foot (S. Pole unassisted) • 2001: First woman to ski across Antarctica with Norwegian Liv Arnesen Born #OTD in 1955. *walked, snowshoed and/or skied

A close-up photograph of the rugged, joyful countenance of American polar explorer Ann Bancroft (born September 29, 1955), the first woman to cross the ice to both the North and South Poles. Set against a stark, high-key backdrop of a vast, white Arctic or Antarctic ice expanse under an overcast, pale sky, she looks directly at the camera with a wide, radiant smile that crinkles her eyes. Her weather-beaten face is flushed pink from the intense polar cold. Her dark, graying hair is windblown and messy, held back by dark, reflective sunglasses resting atop her head. She wears heavy polar expedition gear, including a dark navy jacket with a thick, fluffy brown fur-trimmed hood framing her face, layered over a bright purple collar, a red knit undershirt, and a visible zipper. The composition centers on her resilient expression, conveying a triumphant, adventurous, and authentic mood that highlights her historical significance as a barrier-breaking explorer.

HEDY LAMARR escaped from her Nazi husband by disguising herself as her own maid, became a top actress in Hollywood, then co-developed a radio guidance system for Allied torpedoes - the principles of which are incorporated into today’s Bluetooth and GPS technology. Helluva lady.

We all need doctors, nurses and healthcare workers. But the healthcare sector faces serious staff shortages. By 2030 there's an expected shortage of one million workers, including nurses and doctors. Parliament adopted proposals to strengthen healthcare systems and improve working conditions.

Weltrekord in der Lausitz: Der Höhenwindturm in Schipkau ist 365 Meter hoch. Das höchste Windrad der Welt. Nach dem Berliner Fernsehturm ist er das zweithöchste Bauwerk Deutschlands. Es fehlen drei Meter. Und schon Ende Oktober könnte er Strom ins Netz speisen, sagt GICON-Chef Jochen Großmann.

The town where my Opa's family came from was very welcoming when we laid Stolpersteine for them. The excuse for this—victims' families might object because people can walk on victims' names—is bullshit. These get laid because victims' families pay for them. If they object, it doesn't happen.
