12/24/2004: Happy polar bear Xmas
Ah, more gingerbread. Charly, a 1,150 pound polar bear at SeaWorld San Diego's Wild Arctic attraction, gives a few delicate licks to a gingerbread man before devouring the tasty treat Wednesday Dec. 15, 2004. Wild Arctic keepers often leave fruit, cream cheese and other treats for the polar bears. In keeping with the holiday season, the bears are enjoying a number of extravagances, including a live Christmas tree, snowman, gift boxes and stockings made of bread. |

More bread art too. Nice. I bet the stockings are a lot cooler looking than the bed.

Cliff Clavin moment of the day: Polar bears do not have white fur--their hair is translucent.

I love how even those whose job it is to educate us about animals and their habits insist on anthropomorphizing them.
I don't know if I spelled that right, and I'm not even going to bother checking. :p

X and Y - which is what most people thing of - That's called "Cartesian coordinates" OR an angle, and the distance from 0 - called a Polar Coordinates Now you can fairly easily convert from one to the other, and converting from one to the other is called a "Transform" - hence you can convert Polar to Cartesian, or Cartesian to Polar any time you want - same thing, different way of talking about it Call it a high brow math joke |

What's the difference between white fur and translucent hair which reflects white light?
