The University of Sydney used to have a magnificent jacaranda in the main quad. It served as the backdrop for many graduations and weddings. The tree lasted 88 years till 2016. But in 2014, cuttings were taken and grafted on other jacarandas. Successful clones meant life renewed. https://t.co/xwHbpPDbey

Bloviation is a style of empty, pompous, political speech which originated in Ohio and was used by US President Warren G. Harding, who described it as "the art of speaking for as long as the occasion warrants, and saying nothing". https://t.co/PRbSJ8mwDH
