Trump Tweets of CNN's Demise -- Federal Government to Take Control of Word Definitions -- Antarctica Sings the Blues




Facebook has just stated that they are setting up a system to “purge” themselves of Fake News. Does that mean CNN will finally be put out of business? @realDonaldTrump


The media knows what I think of their tricks;
how all of their stories are written for clicks.
They'd say their own grandmother killed JFK
if it sold more papers and gave them more pay.
There's only one gospel, when it comes to news --
and that is Fox Network with their devout views!

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is considering narrowly defining gender as a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth, the most drastic move yet in a governmentwide effort to roll back recognition and protections of transgender people under federal civil rights law.   Erica L. Green,  Katie Benner, and Robert Pear in the NYT
Conservatives think that a word
is solid and cannot be blurred.
Each name is a basis
for nothing but stasis --
new concepts will thus be interred.

Research published last week by the American Geophysical Union documents a chaotic, low-frequency hum across the Ross Ice Shelf — a platform the size of France that floats off the coast of West Antarctica.

The pitches are caused by wind striking snow dunes, and it’s an eerie sort of song. But, the researchers argue, it’s also an early warning sign for one of the nightmare scenarios in climate change science: the disintegration of Antarctica’s largest ice shelf, and consequent slide of glaciers into the ocean.  Avi Selk in the Washington Post. 

Antarctica singing the blues
while melting into a soft ooze
is going to be
a hit melody
with people of contrary views.
