The Reluctant Anthropologist: Flying out
http://reluctantanthropologist.blogspot.com/2010/05/flying-out.html
Wednesday, May 5, 2010. I leave Fairbanks today for Nome, a brief overnight layover, and a quick 45 minute non-pressurized 7000 foot altitude (or so) flight into Shishmaref. The flight facts I have acquired since reading: 'pregnant women should avoid unpressurized airplanes.' The next advice, 'if you simply must fly in a non-pressurized aircraft, make sure there is oxygen on board.' There isn't. So it goes. I am nervous now! I brought a blanket and two bars of chocolate that say 'OREGON' on them. Just ca...

The Reluctant Anthropologist: April 2010
http://reluctantanthropologist.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 12, 2010. So, the reluctant anthropologist has officially morphed into the pregnant anthropologist. I am swelling with baby, dreaming of baby, conflicted about safety decisions (is it safe to downhill ski, try the wine, climb the ladder, drink the water? And eating chocolate malts daily. The first steps, I think, to motherhood. But some basic instinct says, when it comes to carrying a baby,: phooey. Women around the world. I get it. For now I am trying to write, trying to get my head togeth...

Water: Use and Abuse | Back to Basics Blog
https://greenproject09.wordpress.com/2009/10/30/water
Back to Basics Blog. To Waste, or Not to Waste? October 30, 2009 · 9:26 pm. Water: Use and Abuse. Hooray for my first “real” entry! This week, I focused on water. Water is so central to my life that it took me a few days to become aware of just how much I depend on it. Because there are so many multifaceted issues surrounding water, I have decided to narrow my focus to three main topics for this entry. The statistics go on. One hopeful fact is this: every dollar invested in water and sanitation provi...
