Alert is the northernmost permanently inhabited place in the world.http://www.grc.k12.nf.ca/climatecanada/alert.htm It is located at , 12 km west of Cape Sheridan, the northeastern tip of Ellesmere Island, on the shore of ice-covered Lincoln Sea, in the territory of Nunavut in Canada. Alert lies just 840 km (522 miles) from the North Pole. It is named after HMS Alert, a British ship which wintered about 10 km away in 1875-76.
Alert had five permanent inhabitants in the 2006 census. http://geodepot.statcan.ca/GeoSearch2006/GeoSearch2006.jsp?minx=6634397.10908077&miny=5213855.72422185&maxx=6635266.56686266&maxy=5214384.95939344&LastImage=http://geodepot.statcan.ca/Diss/Output/GeoSearch2006_GEODEPOTFARM635202532306.gif&resolution=H&lang=E&resolution=H&lang=E&boundaryType=bb&cmd=DoPan&pan=SW&switchTab=0 Alert also has many temporary inhabitants as it hosts a military signals intelligence radio receiving facility at Canadian Forces Station Alert (CFS Alert), as well as a co-located Environment Canada weather station, a GAW atmosphere monitoring laboratory, and the Alert Airport.

The settlement is surrounded by a rugged terrain of hills and valleys. The shore is composed primarily of slate and shale, and the sea is covered with pack ice year-round. The local climate is actually semi-arid. However, evaporation rates are also very low, as average monthly temperatures are above freezing only in July and August. There is 24-hour daylight from the last week of March until the middle of September and the sun is above the horizon from mid-April through August. From mid-October through the end of February the sun does not rise above the horizon and there is 24-hour darkness.

Sir George Nares was the first known person to reach the northern end of Ellesmere Island; he arrived on HMS Alert in 1875–1876. The weather station was established in 1950, and the military station in 1958.

Other places on Ellesmere Island are the research base at Eureka and the Inuit community of Grise Fiord.
The nearest large Canadian city to Alert is Yellowknife, in the Northwest Teritorries 1,824km away.

Nine crew members of an RCAF Lancaster died in a crash while making an airdrop of supplies to the station in 1950.

A C-130 Hercules, Boxtop 22, crashed about 30 kilometers short of the runway on October 30, 1991. Of the 18 aboard, 4 died in the crash, while the pilot died during the 30 hours that it took search and rescue teams to reach the crash site under blizzard conditions. Several books, including “Death and Deliverance: The True Story of an Airplane Crash at the North Pole” by Robert Mason Lee, were written, and a film, “Ordeal in the arctic”, starring Richard Chamberlain, was based on the event.

As of April 13, 2006 the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation was reporting that the heating costs for the station had risen. As a result of the rising costs the Canadian Forces proposed cutbacks to support jobs by using private contractors.http://www.cbc.ca/story/canada/national/2006/04/13/north-alert-military060413.html

In early April 2006 the Roly McLenahan Torch that will be used to light the flame in Whitehorse, Yukon for the 2007 Canada Games passed through Alert.

In August 2007, the Canadian Prime Minister, Stephen Harper, made a visit to Alert as part of his campaign to promote Canadian sovereignty in the north.

The Windsor Locks, Connecticut tornado struck on October 3 1979. The short-lived, but intense F4 tornado (see Fujita scale) caused 3 deaths, 500 injuries, and - with more than $300 million in property damage along an 11-mile path - ranks as one of the most expensively destructive tornadoes in American history.

The tornado touched down in the town of Poquonock, Connecticut, just north of Hartford, Connecticut in the Connecticut River valley. It traveled north through the town of Windsor Locks, Connecticut before dissipating in the town of Suffield, Connecticut, just south of the Massachusetts state line.

The path of the tornado crossed the northern portion of Bradley International Airport, and many vintage aircraft at the nearby New England Air Museum were damaged or destroyed by the storm.

A bahut is a portable coffer or chest, with a rounded lid covered in leather, garnished with nails, once used for the transport of clothes or other personal luggage, it was, in short, the original portmanteau. This ancient receptacle, of which mention is made as early as the 14th century — its traditional form is still preserved in many varieties of the travelling trunk — sometimes had its leather covering richly ornamented, and occasionally its interior was divided into compartments; but whatever the details of its construction it was always readily portable. Towards the end of the 17th century the name fell into disuse, and was replaced by coffer, which probably accounts for its misuse by the French romantic writers of the early 19th century. They applied it to almost any antique sideboard, cupboard or wardrobe, and its use became hopelessly confused.
