Scott reminded me of this song, which I loved back in the day. This video is a great tribute to one of the best “back-up bands” and “warm up acts” of its day, with what was realistically their only true big hit. Nonetheless, I remember when this song caught fire back then – good times! It got played on many a juke box – for years.
Here is the OFFICIAL story on how the band got its name!

Or grifters, as Aubergine so sharply spotted.

If you’ve ever wondered why neutrons are themselves unstable, there’s another complication before we get there. We can’t even figure out what’s happening to them, because we measure different answers for how long they last, depending on the experiment, and nobody can figure out why.
So are neutrons “adjacent” to dark matter? Or are they just slipping out to party somewhere else?

quinzaine
noun
piece of verse having 15 lines
piece of verse having 15 syllables
poetic form similar to haiku, with 3 lines, 15 syllables, and 7/5/3 form
French word for 15 things, 15 people, 15 days, or 2 weeks
the 15th day after a feast day, using both end days in counting
Used in a sentence
Even though the word quinzaine looks like some kind of heterocyclic, nitrogen-containing chemical, it is no such thing. However, quinazoline with the stable isotope nitrogen-15 at one or both nitrogen atoms would make a good candidate.
Shown in a picture as quinazoline
Quinazoline
Described as a form of poetry with 3 lines, similar to haiku
Quinzaine is an unrhymed verse of fifteen syllables. The word comes from the French word quinze, meaning fifteen. The syllables are distributed over three lines so that there are seven syllables in the first line, five in the second line, and three in the third line (7/5/3). The first line makes a statement. The next two lines ask a question relating to that statement.
Directions
Line 1: (7 syllables that make a statement) Line 2: (5 syllables that asks a question about the statement) Line 3: (3 syllables that asks a question about the statement)
Quinzaine Example :

Just as Wheatie’s Stormwatch Monday Open Thread was created as a place for people to openly express their thoughts and opinions, so, too, is this Wolfian Wednesday Persnickety Placeholder and Open Topic, where honest but civil discussion of all topics is encouraged. This thread is also to be known as Wolfie’s WOO-WOO Wednesday, due to the author’s expected rambling about his most WOO-WOO opinions. Please bear with us!
We are living in an episode of The Outer Limits.
Please label all AI-generated content as being such, unless it is patently obvious (e.g., humorous AI images). It is important that we as individuals not begin to pretend that socially derived artificial intelligence is actually our own, as this form of stealthy social information averaging and feedback would be one more pretense and deception between people, in service of stupid Marxist socialism, and of those who wish to substitute their communally protected lies for actual truth.
The source of alleged truth matters, not for the truth itself, but for validation.

(1) Crow Intelligence
Why People Call Them “Chimps With Feathers”
For our first stop on this tour, a video which will change how you see crows. HOWEVER, I don’t ask you to accept everything in this video. I ask you to be skeptical.
SO – what percentage of this is “AI slop” or “AI fiction” and what percentage is real? Which parts do you think are truthful? Which parts are exaggerated?
In looking for verification, I found more AI-produced science, this piece being written instead of a video.
The information is very similar to the video, and it seems like the video may have even selected information out of the AI-generated article.
However, the written material does talk more about who is behind it, so unless that is all lies (it could be), then perhaps this information is somewhat real.
However, the VIDEO in this case is open to the public.
And finally, I offer you this TED talk from 2008, about a guy who built a vending machine for crows.
(2) – Brown University Psy-Op
The Academia-Media-Activist-Government Propaganda Axis, Featuring Extra Disinformation to Throw off Conservatives, and How It Worked At Brown University in the Assassination of Ella Cook
OK – this is complicated, but it’s imperative for our side to understand what the left is doing, and how they not only MURDER and LIE, but use THEIR lies to make US look stupid, by getting us to chase the WRONG conspiracies (sound familiar, e.g., Charlie Kirk?)
Alternate Title: It’s the trans killers, stupid!
Next Alternate Title: It’s the lunatic Pal-pals, stupid!
You are familiar with the Brown University attack – correct?
The apparently targeted attack in which the young Republican activist Ella Cook was one of TWO people killed?
Ella Cook, a sophomore student from Birmingham, was killed in the shooting at Brown University on Saturday. Ella was a devoted Christian and a committed conservative who represented the very best of Alabama. A bright future was ended much too soon. Join me in lifting up her…
Well, suddenly, people on our side were pointing out that two young students who “survived” earlier school shootings, “survived” this one, and were calling for gun control.
Joshua Hall (@JoshHall2024): “BREAKING: There are now TWO STUDENTS who survived the shooting at Brown University in Rhode Island tonight that also supposedly survived two other well-known mass shootings: Zoe Weissman, a Parkland survivor and now Mia Tretta (@mia_tretta), a hardcore gun control and anti-2nd Amendment activist who has met with disgraced former President Biden and just happened to be there tonight. Both have already been making the rounds on CNN and MSDNC pushing the gun control agenda in the immediate aftermath of surviving yet another mass shooting. Does anyone actually believe that this is a coincidence? We are talking about two completely different parts of the country, two alleged “repeat survivors” of mass shootings YEARS APART from one another. Call me a conspiracy theorist guys… But something just isn’t right about this.” | XCancel
Pat Frederick found this shocking information, posted it here, and I jumped on it immediately. Why? Because this was CLEARLY another “Sandy Hook conspiracy theory” forming in real time. If it was true, it’s simply too incredible to believe, and is a sign of some kind of malevolent organized psy-op. But if it was FALSE, then we had a chance to discover who was creating the disinformation.
Well, it turns out to be MOSTLY FALSE – with the disinformation being created mostly by the FAKE NEWS, but with some assistance by CLICKBAIT FAKE MAGA that is allegedly on our side, but ain’t exactly helping.
The truth is that the leftist Fake News exaggerates and stretches the truth, and dopes on our side take the bait and stretch it even further for conspiracy theory clicks.
The left lies, lies, and lies – and when we don’t call them on the lies, but instead go along with them – well, we get what we deserve.
For starters – it turns out that these “two survivors” who “survived” Brown University were actually covered by the FAKE NEWS – who called them “survivors”.
There are many derivative versions of the story, but we’ll stick with the Globe’s version (https://archive.fo/kESl9).
The bottom line is that these “survivors” are not actually “survivors” of the Brown shooting – and only one of them is truly a survivor of another shooting.
Yes. These people are not true “survivors” of the Brown University shooting, and the noisiest one is not a true “survivor” of any previous shooting. And the one true survivor clearly understood that she was merely “on campus” for this shooting, and didn’t provide the desired agonizing sound bytes for the Fake News. That is the key to understanding this journalistic trickery, if not political treachery.
The Fake News has LIED about the “survivors”, then forced people to PAY FOR THE ARTICLE, so the Fake News can’t be fact-checked by the public.
Thank goodness for archive sites.
First, let’s look at Brown University.
There are two alleged survivors – who are really just left-wing, anti-gun activists who are (surprise, surprise) attending one of the most left-wing, radical universities in the country.
The first “survivor” is “Zoe” Weissman – who in my medical opinion was very likely not born as a Zoe.
Alleged Zoe has “she/her” pronouns, by the way, so we are expected to believe “her” on that as well.
See how this forced propaganda thing works?
It turns out that “Zoe” was on CAMPUS – in her DORM ROOM – when [after several paragraphs of drama] we learn that she learned there was a shooting on campus!
OMG – Zoe is a victim! AGAIN! But she survived!
Too bad a conservative Republican Christian activist who opposed the trans ideology didn’t survive – when she got shot in the face by somebody who is very likely another trans activist/murderer at Brown or a different Ivy League school, but hey – nothing that FAKE NEWS can’t turn around in real time!
Ella’s not the victim. Zoe and TRANS KIDS are the victims! /s
Oh, but it gets better.
You see, “Zoe” wasn’t actually a student at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida. No. She was a middle school student at the nearby Westglades Middle School. But – and this is what makes her a survivor – she could hear shots from that other school. When she was outside.
Or so she says.
Details. Details. A double survivor. Who just happens to be some kind of trans anti-gun activist, although Duck.AI can only find information about Zoe and the shooting, and is absolutely unable to find any information about that male chin. But believe the she/her! You MUST believe!
UGH. Next.
The second (true) survivor is Mia Tretta, who was shot in the stomach in a real school shooting in California, and survived. She became an anti-gun activist.
This young lady (a real one) is a lot more savvy than “Zoe” – and if you read this article, from which the image above came, then you will understand that she is deeply political and highly connected to massive Democrat and Deep State politics.
You will notice, if you read the Boston Globe article, that Mia didn’t have a lot to say in this wrap-up smear / prime the pumps operation, in which left-wing journalism creates a knowingly defective but politically convenient sound-byte. I think Mia understands that her political movement value as a “real victim” would be degraded and lessened by claiming victimhood right now, so she’s holding on this round of political poker. But I’m sure people will be hearing a lot more from her at controlled events, etc., IF this shooting is deemed worthy of monetization by the Democrat Party.
And that’s it. A real victim who is not claiming victimhood now – but who can be mixed with a louder phony victim to create two “kinda” victims, and a desirable sound byte.
So – is there a conspiracy of some kind going on?
Yes – there is a conspiracy here – to monetize and advance politics on tragedy that was created by the very same people, the same money, and the same politics – and to then blame it on the opponents thereof.
It’s very likely that yet another TRANS SHOOTER or PAL-PAL LUNATIC is getting away, because nobody in that part of the world wants to find “them”. Meanwhile, Demmunists want to blame everybody but their own psycho world that caused this stuff.
The further problem here, is that people on our side are not being critical about what is actually happening. We’re not jumping on the Fake News for calling people “survivors” when they’re just “on campus” – which is kinda like being “in the same city” these days.
Then, these same people “on our side” are making our side dumb and stupid by going along with the false idea that these uninvolved activists were actually “survivors” of the Brown attack, and that their presence is some kind of malevolent coincidence, and not merely a Fake News lying insinuation.
Were there other conservatives at that campus event, who survived? Let’s hear from THEM. The Fake News isn’t going to cover them. How about OUR journalists? Maybe Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens, Glenn Beck, or TPUSA should be interviewing THEM.
Just sayin’. Let’s hear from some REAL “survivors” of this targeted political attack. Because the FAKE NEWS ain’t gonna do it.

This explainer is powerful, making very understandable the link between tail loss and other differences between humans and apes and/or monkeys. And not only is the “genetic clock” consistent with what we know – this hypothesis almost certainly explains other inherited traits which come from similar larger patterns in DNA, and not from smaller base-pair mutations.
