Ides of August



August is traditionally referred to as the Dog Days of Summer.

In lieu of the Iowa State Fair, some are calling it the Corn Dog Days of Summer.

There are days when it has even been a little warm for me, sans breeze.

Per The Washington Post we'd better get used to it...

Arctic Ocean Getting Warm; Seals Vanish and Icebergs Melt

...great masses of ice have now been replaced by moraines of earth and stones.

...at many points well-known glaciers have entirely disappeared.

If you clicked the Post link and didn't find the article, it's because it appeared November 2, 1922!

"Gore-bull" warming before "Gore-bull" warming was cool?

A study by the Business & Media Institute found that media, such as The New York Times, Newsweek, Time and I'm sure The Washington Post, have warned about impending climate doom four different times in the past 100 years.

Sounds cyclical and the scientific community is united in that fact.
